:58:03
You're the best accountant, the most
conscientious financial manager,
:58:06
but you haven't
a mark's worth of imagination.
:58:09
And I mean a reichsmark.
- That's no reproach.
:58:13
In your profession, imagination
would be detrimental to business.
:58:17
Someone must hold on to the money,
:58:20
vouch for finances, secure credit.
:58:29
Where would you and your firm be
without Senkenberg?
:58:33
At the races?
:58:35
Well said, eh, Senkenberg?
:58:39
I'd like to drink a toast
to Mrs. Braun.
:58:41
With her alone,
we probably would be at the races,
:58:43
but without her,
we'd be in the cemetery.
:58:50
Please excuse me.
:58:52
It's been a long, hard day, and -
:58:55
And you want to calculate
:58:57
how long it will be
before we're bankrupt.
:59:00
But seriously,
the two of us survived the war,
:59:04
and the three of us
will survive the peace.
:59:07
The firm had to survive without you
during the war years, sir.
:59:15
The only contact you had with us
was through your bank account.
:59:20
Oh, I don't hold it against you.
:59:23
Political developments
have proved you right
:59:26
and made your noble abstinence
:59:28
look like foresight and stature.
:59:36
But I'm glad
we can count on you again...
:59:40
as we did before 1933.
:59:44
And I'm glad to have found
in you, Mrs. Braun,
:59:48
such a good
and unorthodox opponent.
:59:55
Good evening.
