:21:01
- The duty officer signed them.
- Who was the duty officer?

:21:04
I was.
:21:05
Johnny, if they find out you know me,
that's very dangerous.

:21:09
Everything is dangerous.
:21:11
I know an old lady back home,
broke her leg stepping into a church pew.

:21:17
See you, baby.
:21:21
Johnny! When you come back,
bring me some sugar.

:21:24
- Yeah, sure.
- And some soap.

:21:26
And hairpins.
:21:28
- Anything else?
- A pillow to go with that mattress.

:21:33
Ah, you gorgeous booby trap.
:21:37

:21:44
On your left is the Russian war memorial,
:21:46
built in honour of their soldiers
killed in the battle of Berlin.

:21:49
Those tanks on the side
were the first to enter Berlin.

:21:53
Beyond it, the Reichstag,
the German house of representatives.

:21:57
That's the building set on fire in 1933
and blamed on a poor Dutchman.

:22:01
The word got out it was Hitler
who threw the match.

:22:03
They used to say it's the first time in history
a man gave himself the hotfoot.

:22:13
The Brandenburg Gate, an arch of triumph
until they got out of the habit.

:22:18
That rubble heap over there
was the American embassy.

:22:21
You can't tell now but this spot
was once the heart of Europe.

:22:24
The street is the famous Unter den Linden,
:22:27
named after the linden trees,
which they've replanted now.

:22:30
That pile of stone over there
was the Adlon Hotel,

:22:33
just after the 8th Air Force
checked in for the weekend.

:22:37
Now, let's look at the Wilhelmstraße.
:22:41
Here's the Reich Chancellery where
the Führer fixed himself up a duplex.

:22:45
As it turned out, one part got to be a big
padded cell and the other a mortuary.

:22:49
Underneath is a concrete basement,
:22:51
where he married Eva Braun
and where they killed themselves.

:22:54
A lot of people say it was
the perfect honeymoon.

:22:59
Over there is the balcony where he bet
his Reich would last a thousand years.
