Haha) to be...or...not to be! trio~ haha

    Colonel Ehrhardt: Neither did I. You know there's always something wrong with a man who doesn't drink or smoke, doesn't eat meat.

    Joseph Tura: You mean our Führer?

    Colonel Ehrhardt: Oh, no! No, please, Professor! I hope you don't...

  • Maria Tura: Colonel, whatever you decide. If you want me...

    Colonel Ehrhardt: Naturally, I would have to know you a little better. That is my duty and, if I may say, my pleasure.
