:28:01
- A building is too.
- Come on now!
:28:03
- A building isn't born!
- Oh, yes, it is, Inspector.
:28:06
The placement of its cornerstone
is its birth hour...
:28:10
and the cornerstone for the Luxor
was laid by the Nazis in May '44...
:28:14
when they still believed
in final victory.
:28:17
The bigwigs in the SS wanted
to build a few grand hotels...
:28:21
for politicians and diplomats...
:28:23
all in one huge cluster,
so they could spy on everybody.
:28:27
No, the Luxor has a negative aura.
:28:30
But your business is thriving here
nevertheless.
:28:32
Well, in a hotel like this there are
always people with a lot of money.
:28:34
There's jewelry or baggage to insure,
or travel insurance to write.
:28:39
My wife has always wanted me
to buy life insurance.
:28:42
It all depends on the stars,
Inspector.
:28:45
It's all in the stars.
:28:47
Considering your profession...
:28:50
you could be dead tomorrow,
right?
:28:53
I mean, since you're always
in dangerous situations.
:28:55
Criminals never sleep,
do they?
:28:57
But perhaps we could
work something out.
:28:59
Call me at the office
in the morning.
:29:02
It's pretty quiet there
these days.
:29:04
I'd also like to talk
about Mr. Barter.
:29:07
He wanted insurance too.
:29:10
I received
a very strange phone call.
:29:14
To your health,
Mr. Mistelzweig.
:29:16
Cheers, Inspector.
:29:25
- It was nice to meet you.
- The pleasure was all mine.
:29:28
I'll be sure to call you.
:29:50
No harm done...
:29:52
but if you could take me to the other
side, I'd appreciate that very much.
:29:56
May I give you
a lift somewhere?
:29:58
That's very kind of you.
