:55:03
-Correct?
-Yes, Your Highness.

:55:06
Not to mention that Redl
has a lot of information...

:55:10
which he might disclose
at the trial...

:55:14
with unpleasant results.
:55:16
Solution 2:
a closed hearing.

:55:18
Sentence made public
after execution...

:55:22
in such detail that it
alarms the whole army...

:55:26
and also the whole civilian
population. Do you agree?

:55:36
Whoever agrees
should raise his hand.

:55:48
Lt. Colonel Kubinyi,
you don't agree?

:55:53
lmperial Highness,
l beg to reply, no.

:55:59
What do you suggest?
:56:02
Redl should have the chance
to decide his own fate.

:56:06
You were his school friend,
hence prejudiced.

:56:09
Principally, you're right.
:56:11
How can Redl decide
his own fate?

:56:14
He won't even agree
to a public trial.

:56:17
We're speaking of a traitor.
:56:20
One can only deal with
a traitor when he's dead.

:56:23
l won't inquire
how this man...

:56:27
managed to get
into the Ministry.

:56:31
Who backed him,
or whom he deceived.

:56:34
These questions will be
answered later.

:56:38
For the people
of the Monarchy...

:56:44
we're dealing
with an officer...

:56:46
in the lmperial
War Ministry.

:56:50
So, l suggest he should be
allowed to end it himself.

:56:56
And we can publish the
version acceptable to us.

:56:59
A third solution.
