[ shouting .]
: Yeah! For the white race to survive, there has to be a bloodletting.
Not next week, not next month, but now! ALL [ shouting .]
: Now! A war already exists throughout the world, and white people are being killed.
- No! - No! And they are being killed because the communist, - Jew-controlled media - That's right.

It will come on the end of a rope.
One day soon, that's where they'll all be! MEN: Yeah! Hail victory! Hail victory! Hail victory! Hail victory! Hail victory! Hail victory! [ woman whispering indistinctly .]
[ men murmuring .]
There is only one thing worse than a non-Aryan or the mongrels who would destroy us.
And that is a race traitor! Amongst us tonight we have such filth a government agent who has infiltrated our ranks to spy on us! Gerard Mercer, you are a traitor to your race! You will pay for your crime! [ clamoring .]
Take him up on the gallows! [ chanting .]
: Traitor! Traitor! Traitor! Traitor! Traitor! Traitor! Traitor! Traitor! Traitor! Traitor! - [ cheering .]
- [ chuckling .]
[ theme music playing .]
They tell me horses are natural jumpers.
Given enough incentive, they'll go over anything.
Almost anything.
Well, of course, it all depends on the rider.
He won't jump for you if he's not your friend.
Have a look around the railing.
[ beeping .]
MALE VOICE: Good morning, Jim.
This is Richard Kester, a fanatical neo-Nazi and leader of the White People's Coalition, a group that secretly advocates the violent overthrow of our government.
In the past few years, Kester's organization has grown at an alarming rate, and they are no longer considered just a fringe group, but a major threat.
A string of armored car and bank robberies has financed a number of Kester's terrorist activities including the hanging of Gerard Mercer, a government agent who infiltrated the White People's Coalition.
Kester is on the verge of becoming the leader of like-minded neo-Nazi groups throughout the world.
He's going to attend a three-day meeting in Germany where his proposal will be voted on by the heads of other neo-Nazi groups.
Kester is by far the most violent of all the world neo-Nazi leaders.
If he should be elected, a reign of terror is sure to follow.
Your mission, Jim, should you choose to accept it, is to discredit Kester amongst his peers and bring about the dissolution of one of the world's most heinous organizations.
As always, should you or any member of your IM Force be caught or killed, the Secretary will disavow any knowledge of your actions.
This disc will self-destruct in five seconds.
Good luck, Jim.
[ rapid beeping .]
[ hissing .]
Richard Kester the most radical neo-Nazi there is.
I've read about his White People's Coalition.
Yeah, they're kissing cousins to the Ku Klux Klan.
And he preaches his poison freely under the protection of the First Amendment.
This is the Rheinberg Hotel where the meeting will take place.
It's a dozen or so miles out of the port city of Hamburg, very private, and as far as the neo-Nazis are concerned, very safe.
We'll set up here in the attic above the lobby.
There are several outbuildings.
This is the layout.
Before Gerard Mercer was killed, he said that Kester had developed some kind of secret weapon that he wants to demonstrate at the meeting.
- And we've got to find out what that weapon is.
- Yes.
Shannon, you're going in as Fraulein Veronica Klopf, replacing the hotel manager who's been recalled to Berlin on an urgent tax matter.
What about you, Jim? I go in as this man Frederick Van Olsen, South African.
Former government computer security expert and now freelances, sells his services to the highest bidder on either side of the law.
Kester has asked Van Olsen to join him in Germany at the conference.
Fortunately, the two have never met.
Do we know what Kester wants from Van Olsen? Well, the federal government now has several cases pending against Kester.
He wants Van Olsen's help to find out just how much evidence they have.
But Mr.
Van Olsen has more than that that he can sell to Kester.
Much more.
[ men speaking German in distance .]
- Good afternoon, sir.
- Thank you.
Kester's car just pulled out front.
He wasn't due till this afternoon.
Then we should let Max and Grant know.
[ beeping .]
Yeah, Jim.
Kester's arrived ahead of schedule.
Give us about two minutes, we'll be outta here.
I'll have your bags delivered right away.
- Is there anything else? - Yes, there is.
There's a list of people staying here.
Contact them and tell 'em I want to move the first meeting up to Certainly.
Right away.
Anything else? Yes, we'd like the keys to the private wine cellar, please.
If you have wine to be stored, I Just the keys.
We'll take care of it.
Certainly.
I'll send them to your room.
It's time we realized that the world is being carved up for blacks.
White people no longer have any say in what goes on.
I don't want to wait for things to happen.
I want to make things happen.
Now! Looks as if all the gang's here.
The world's leading neo-Nazis.
We are all preparing for the day when governments will fall and race traitors will be executed.
Hans Fruger.
Neo-Nazi living in Bavaria Controls a $25 million war chest funded by the Libyan terrorists.
Well, I'd like to know more.
Charles Pembroke, leader of the National Front of England.
He was implicated in the 1987 London massacre of nine nuns and four priests.
MAX: Hey, I know this guy Estaban Cortez.
He's one of Noriega's chief money launderers.
And a cold-blooded killer.
Hmm.
Not only the head of the South American Nazi party, he had enough money left over to donate a million three to the Ku Klux Klan.
GRANT: And Gian-Carlo Tiamo Italy's leading right-wing extremist.
I only ask you to consider my proposals.
All right, looks like the little get-together is winding down.
I'm ready to go in as Frederick Van Olsen.
I'll keep Kester busy in the bar.
That'll give you a chance to look around his room.
We still have to find out what the secret weapon is.
Pardon me [ indistinct conversations .]
Mr.
Kester Frederick Van Olsen.
Mr.
Van Olsen come in, come in.
[ shower running .]
You know, Mr.
Van Olsen you and I, we have something in common.
Oh, what is that? Your wife and I have the same birthday.
We were both born on September 14.
Oh, well, you-you're mistaken.
My wife's birthday is the second of April.
Hmm.
Oh, that's funny.
L-I must be thinking of someone else.
[ laughs .]
Mr.
Kester, I didn't come here from South Africa because I need new business.
Apartheid is on the verge of collapse.
If you are successful, so are we.
I'm listening, Mr.
Van Olsen.
How would you like to be the head of a computer network that could spread your message to similar-thinking people all over the world? You know, that's something that I've thought about and dreamt about for some years.
Yes, well, I can turn that dream into a reality.
And I can do it now.
Of course, we have to discuss my fee.
I want you to come with me right now.
We'll go up to the suite.
We'll work out the details.
I'll give you a retainer.
Well, I take your word for that.
But, I mean, we can work out the details tomorrow.
I insist that we do it now.
Come on.
[ shower running .]
[ beeps .]
PHELPS: Well, something can be arranged.
Psst.
Don't move another muscle.
Eva? Well, what have we got here? I do believe this Negro was about to rob me.
EVA: Worse.
He broke in while I was in the shower.
Is that right? [ Grant shouts .]
I think you should let the hotel know what kind of help they have working for them.
No, sir.
There won't be any consulting with hotel management.
Don't worry.
They're not going to fire you.
I'm not even gonna mention it.
Down on your knees, boy.
Now! Move! Let me show you what we do with thieving trash where I come from.
I'm not going to offer you a last meal.
Do you have any last words? Mr.
Kester, you can't shoot him right here.
It would create some terrible complications, and we have more important things to do.
I mean, you don't have to kill him right now, do you? KESTER: Maybe I can wait for a more convenient time.
Hold a tournament, kill him for sport.
Exactly.
Eva, get dressed.
Take this criminal to the wine cellar.
Don't hesitate to use it if he tries anything.
On your feet; hands behind your back.
You heard him! On your feet.
Do you comprehend what's happening? We are going to kill you, but we're not going to do it just right now.
And until we're ready, we've got just the place to keep you.
PHELPS: Rudolph Silas, That's today.
Grant slipped me that just before Kester put the handcuffs on him.
What kind of sick ritual do they have in mind for him? PHELPS: I don't know.
But, nothing, believe me, nothing is gonna happen to Grant.
Now, on the other hand, we can't spring him yet.
That might make Kester suspicious and could blow the whole mission.
Well, as far as the hotel goes, there have been no arrivals for anything even close to a Rudolph Silas.
Wait a minute.
Maybe it's not the name of a person.
Maybe the name of a corporation, or a building, or a ship.
Here we are.
Cargo freighter Rudolph Silas.
Registered in the Philippines, purchased All right, we're a dozen miles outside Hamburg.
We have to get there, meet that ship, and I'll bet we find Mr.
Kester's secret weapon.
The pilot's leaving.
Time to make our move.
Captain Marks, I'm Lieutenant Dressen from the Customs Service.
This is Drs.
Hoffman and Dr.
Lieber.
How do you do? Your last port was Malta, Captain.
All ships from that region are to be examined for traces of the Mediterranean Fruit Fly virus.
But we have no agricultural products aboard.
Ah, but we are conducting tests on all ships from that region.
The pilot didn't mention anything about this.
MAX: Captain the pilot is a very busy man.
SHANNON: We need access to the entire ship.
I will have to check with the owner.
Well, you go ahead and do that, Captain.
Besides, we have several other ships we need to examine.
When can we reschedule? Possibly, uh, Friday.
NICHOLAS: Friday.
Good.
Until then, Captain.
No one will be allowed on or off the ship.
You will be under strict quarantine.
I see.
If you could conduct your tests now, I would appreciate it.
Thank you.
I'II, uh, see you're left alone to get on with your work.
Computers are miraculous things, Mr.
Kester.
I can do what we call shadow your system into the World Financial Network.
That's the network that links all the leading banks and brokerage houses in the world.
Also the most secure.
But it was I who helped develop the open key cryptology they use for their security.
Now, once in the World Financial Network, there are other things we can do that I think might interest you.
Such as? Well, there's a thing we call the salami technique.
That's where you peel away small bits from large banks.
So small they don't even know it.
But in the course of a year, it could be worth millions.
In 48 hours, the scope of the White People's Coalition is going to increase tremendously.
I want these other organizations to join the network, but I must have complete control.
I saved the best till last.
They each get this card.
They enter their passwords and their codes on the card.
That gives them certain benefits of the system, it gives them greater security, and it gives you control of everything.
[ Adolf Hitler declaiming fiercely .]
[ crowd chanting .]
These other organizations will want proof.
A demonstration that you can do what you say you can do.
Well, of course.
Set up a meeting.
Nicholas, I'm coming up empty.
Shannon, so am I.
Listen, I can't find any cargo aboard this ship, let alone some secret weapon.
I'm going to check the cargo areas near the engine room.
Right, Shannon.
Shannon, Nicholas, Kester's just coming on board with Fruger.
Shannon, if I were you, I'd stay out of sight.
He may recognize you from the hotel.
I hear you, Max.
I'm Richard Kester.
I'm the owner of this ship.
Is there a problem? Not at all.
This is just a routine investigation.
I served with this unit when I was in the service.
Blud und Eisen.
We were strong but proud.
Our motto, Blud und Eisen.
Blud und Eisen.
Blood and Iron.
[ chuckles .]
You're quite tall.
How tall are you? Six-three.
A true Aryan.
All of our men in uniform should be such fine specimens.
Hans.
It is still possible, my friend.
We have the power to make it happen.
The fight for the mind begins in the cradle.
In order for our movement to succeed, a baby's earliest fairy tales must be in accordance with our ideals.
You are, of course, correct.
And hopefully someday in the future, all of these ideals will be realized.
[ projector clacking .]
[ fanfare playing .]
This is something I'm doing now.
[ Hitler speaking German .]
[ crowd cheering .]
[ Hitler speaking German .]
Soldier! Who are you watching? The Fuhrer, sir.
Our God and master.
Boys, attention! About turn! One, two, three [ singing German song .]
[ Hitler shouting, crowd cheering .]
[ .]
They-they think he's alive.
I've had them since birth.
This ship is their home.
I've kept them in the most remote parts of the South Pacific.
[ chuckling .]
They They know only what I want them to know.
It's living proof of what I can achieve.
[ singing continues .]
Not for the future, Fruger.
Now, now! [ singing continues .]
[ singing continues .]
[ camera shutter snapping .]
What kind of psychotic minds are at work here? Oh, Shannon.
This was Hitler's dream.
[ singing continues .]
Jim.
Yeah, Nicholas? I think we just found Kester's secret weapon.
Listen.
[ singing continues .]
[ blows whistle .]
[ blows whistle .]
Follow me, boys.
[ blows whistle .]
No one is to know these boys are here.
Is that clear? Our policy provides complete privacy for our guests.
Shoulders back, Andrew.
Stand up straight.
Very good.
These boys have strict dietary restrictions.
They are to receive no food and drink that does not appear on this list.
No radio or television.
Have it removed from the building.
I'll see to it right away.
We'll provide all the entertainment that they need.
To reward your good behavior, I'm going to hold a hunt.
I've got just the person you can shoot for the sport of it.
Sports are so important to young boys.
Now that we know about Mr.
Kester's hunt, we can use that to spring Grant and plan a few surprises of our own.
Got to be the most demented group I've ever come across.
Well, you're right, Nicholas, but don't make the mistake of underestimating them.
What do you have, Shannon? Well, IM Research has come up with something new.
This photograph was taken of a kidnap victim, whose parents were former followers of Kester's.
By using computer graphics [ whirring .]
we can analyze the skeletal structure and predict with a high degree of accuracy, what this child would look like, at two years old at four years old.
Six, eight and today.
The boy you photographed, Nicholas.
Well, it's likely they've all been kidnapped.
They've had no contact with the real world.
They only believe what Kester wants them to.
Well, they did that in Nazi Germany.
They made the children think the fuehrer was sent from heaven to protect them from evil things called the Allies who would eat children.
Kester's booked the conference room for tomorrow night.
I'm sure the kids are gonna put on quite a performance.
What we saw on the boat was just a rehearsal.
Then I think the key to Mr.
Kester's downfall is to have him go ahead with his program tomorrow night.
We'll just make a few alterations of our own.
VOGEL: Good day for a hunt.
Wouldn't you say? What we have here is something to help the boys track you.
[ beeping .]
I am going to free your feet.
We want to make this hunt as interesting as possible.
[ grunting .]
On the other hand, this is the boys' first hunt.
We don't want them to come back empty-handed.
[ grunting .]
[ grunting .]
So the hunt begins now.
The first team to get him wins a prize.
[ whistle blows .]
- [ silenced gunshots .]
- [ grunting .]
[ beeping .]
[ beeping .]
[ .]
We've got to hurry.
[ beeping .]
Come on.
[ beeping rapidly .]
That way.
Come here! [ beeping quickens .]
[ grunting .]
There he is! Yeah, we got him! - Come on.
- Come on! Get around him.
Close it up.
[ whistle blowing .]
Stop! The hunt is over.
But don't you want us to kill him? No, I don't want you to kill him.
I want everyone back at the bunk house.
ALL: Yes, leader.
[ whistle blows .]
[ grunts .]
Sorry we cut it close.
We couldn't help it.
You okay? They're insane! This is like a nightmare! That's the trouble; it's no nightmare.
It's all too real.
Look, we've got to do something about this.
We were going to take the life of another human being.
Why? What do you know about him? Tell me.
He eats young children.
What else? He has horns on his head.
Now, listen to me very carefully.
None of those things are true.
I want you to go and talk to him and find out for yourselves.
I command you to go over and introduce yourselves.
Hello.
My name's Grant.
Hi.
I'm Peter.
Mine's Marcos.
I would like to get to know all of you.
And answer all of your questions.
It's amazing, isn't it? With all the poison they've been taught, didn't take much to turn them around.
My name's Robbie.
You're right, Nicholas.
But these kids are still gonna need a lot of help when we get them home.
Oh, Kester called.
I told him Grant was dead, and that Eva was gonna take the body to Bavaria and bury it on a farm somewhere.
She won't be back till tomorrow night.
We've got Eva and Vogel tied up in the hotel storage cellar.
We found speakers among the bunk pillows along with tapes.
Subliminal messages while they sleep.
Yesterday, we substituted our own.
He's planning a pretty big show.
Do we have some visual effects of our own? He'll think he's on MTV.
All right.
You know what do do.
I've got to get ready for my own performance for Kester.
It's all very simple, gentlemen.
What Mr.
Van Olsen is proposing is that by forming our own computer network, we will not only have access to government and military files, but also new opportunities to finance our operations.
PEMBROKE: How do we know the system works? We'd like to see more tangible evidence.
Of course.
You ready, Jim? I'm assuming your organization has a Swiss bank account? If you'd provide me with the numbers of that account, I'll give you a demonstration.
We are able to penetrate various international financial institutions and set up a virus program, whereby we can siphon off cash in ways that are virtually undetectable.
Here you are, Mr.
Van Olsen.
Thank you, sir.
Now, for the purpose of this demonstration, we'll transfer a nominal amount.
Say $100,000.
Using open key cryptology, that shouldn't be a problem.
For your sake, I hope there is not a problem, because if it does not work, Mr.
Van Olsen, you will not leave this room alive.
Grant, you can make the transfer, can't you? Grant? Is the relay I planted working? It'll work It'll work.
It's got to.
Are you finished, Mr.
Van Olsen? I need more time, Jim.
I'll just be, uh, a moment longer.
Is there some difficulty? Jim, it's done.
The funds are in your account.
I wish to verify a transaction of funds to my account.
My identification code is D274^ B14^ J.
Yes, I will hold.
Come on.
Be there.
I see.
Thank you.
$100,000 was just transferred to my account.
[ chuckling .]
[ appreciative murmuring .]
The benefits of our new association are obvious, gentlemen.
We will give you our final decision this evening.
Instead of teaching today's lesson myself, our guest will be taking my place.
Please come to the table.
We're gonna talk about a great man.
One of the fuehrer's generals? GRANT: No.
No, Peter.
He wasn't a military leader.
He had no connection with the fuehrer.
Was he a king? In a way.
But not in the way that you think.
He had no riches.
No wealth of any kind.
He had no armies.
He had no weapons.
But what he did have was far more powerful than all those things.
He had ideas.
And the king was in his name.
His name was the Reverend Dr Martin Luther King, Jr.
And he had a dream.
I've arranged for the menu, the wine list, and the flowers, per your instructions.
Yes, no mistakes.
No interruptions.
This is the most important night of my life.
- Do you understand that? - Certainly.
Good.
Got to get to the bunk house and inspect the boys.
And he believed that all men are created equal.
And he said "enough.
" [ beeping .]
SHANNON: Nicholas! Kester's on his way.
Thanks for the warning, Shannon.
[ grunts softly .]
[ sighs .]
Yes, sir.
They look mighty fine.
You've done a good job with them, Vogel.
Thank you, sir.
Do they know what to do for tonight's program? They know exactly what to do.
Including some new things, chosen in honor for our special guests? Yes, sir.
Absolutely.
Is that right, boy? You've learned some new things for tonight? Yes, sir.
Well! Maybe they'll go through it once, for me? Yes, they could do that, but they've gone through it so many times, that to do it again, especially in your presence, will take away from tonight's performance.
We don't want them to be over-rehearsed.
We'll save it for tonight.
[ grunting .]
[ engine starts .]
- [ silenced gunshot .]
- [ grunts .]
Getting ready for tonight? Everything's under control, Mr.
Kester.
Good.
[ engine starts .]
I want to give it to these guys in quadraphonic.
Tell me about it.
By a majority of four to one.
Richard Kester will be inducted tonight as our world leader.
You have already entered your password keys on the laser cards? I will present them to Kester this evening.
This network will bring us power.
If anything goes wrong, Fruger, I hold you responsible.
Grant, how close are you? Thank you.
Nicholas? We're ready here, Jim.
[ men murmuring .]
[ silverware banging, conversation stops .]
This is the night that will live forever in history.
By joining the White People's Coalition, under the leadership of Richard Kester, the course we have taken will take on new dimensions.
[ vociferous murmurs .]
Here are the laser cards, with all our passwords and codes.
Well, you know what to do with these, Mr.
Van Olsen.
I certainly do.
Gentlemen! A violent crusade begins in this room tonight.
I believe in action, not words.
So I want to show you what is possible.
What the future holds for us.
[ snaps fingers .]
[ fanfare plays .]
[ .]
- [ music fades .]
- Gentlemen I've had these boys since birth.
They're an example of exactly what's possible.
Total Aryan control.
Allow me to introduce their headmaster, Mr.
Eric Vogel.
MAN: Ja gut! MAN 2: Bravo! I just want to say that, while I have worked hard with the boys, the concept you're about to see was entirely conceived by Richard Kester.
MAN: Bravo, Kester! Go ahead and take all the credit.
You deserve it.
One, two, one Has anybody here seen my old friend Martin? I have a dream where they will be able to sit down - Can you tell me where he's gone? - together at the table of brotherhood.
I have a dream - that one day - ? He freed a lot of people ? ROBERT KENNEDY: And its disease - ? But it seems the good die young ? -knows no bounds or race or nation - Not as a call to bear arms - ? I just turned around ? - ? And he's gone ? - How dare you! Vogel.
Vogel! - I told you, Fruger.
I told you! - [ singing continues .]
Vogel! Vogel! I do not shrink from this responsibility I welcome it.
Knows no bounds or race or nation - [ clamoring .]
- [ singing continues .]
KING: Even in the state of Mississippi a state where [ singing and clamoring continue .]
KESTER: Vogel! [ singing and clamoring continue .]
KING: together at the table of brotherhood sweltering with the heat of oppression It's your fault.
You wanted him as leader.
[ singing continues .]
Aah! [ voices and music overlap .]
Get the cards.
Where are the cards? FRUGER: Where's Van Olsen? Find him! Now! No.
Let me explain.
You don't understand.
You don't unders [ singing continues .]
FRUGER: Finished! Race traitor! to be self-evident, that all men [ engine idling .]
There's a plane waiting for them at the airport.
There'll be a team of doctors to greet them when they touch down in the States.
Yeah, I think I'll ride along with them.
And what about Kester? He's given away all their secrets.
I think we can close the books on Richard Kester.
Permanently.
MAN: Yeah! The preservation of the white race.
[ shouting .]
: Yeah! For the white race to survive, there has to be a bloodletting.
Not next week, not next month, but now! ALL [ shouting .]
: Now! A war already exists throughout the world, and white people are being killed.
- No! - No! And they are being killed because the communist, - Jew-controlled media - That's right.
wants to see the niggers take our land! ALL: Yeah! Justice will be done.
MEN: - Yeah! - Yeah! Right.
It will come on the end of a rope.
One day soon, that's where they'll all be! MEN: Yeah! Hail victory! Hail victory! Hail victory! Hail victory! Hail victory! Hail victory! [ woman whispering indistinctly .]
[ men murmuring .]
There is only one thing worse than a non-Aryan or the mongrels who would destroy us.
And that is a race traitor! Amongst us tonight we have such filth a government agent who has infiltrated our ranks to spy on us! Gerard Mercer, you are a traitor to your race! You will pay for your crime! [ clamoring .]
Take him up on the gallows! [ chanting .]
: Traitor! Traitor! Traitor! Traitor! Traitor! Traitor! Traitor! Traitor! Traitor! Traitor! - [ cheering .]
- [ chuckling .]
[ theme music playing .]
They tell me horses are natural jumpers.
Given enough incentive, they'll go over anything.
Almost anything.
Well, of course, it all depends on the rider.
He won't jump for you if he's not your friend.
Have a look around the railing.
[ beeping .]
MALE VOICE: Good morning, Jim.
This is Richard Kester, a fanatical neo-Nazi and leader of the White People's Coalition, a group that secretly advocates the violent overthrow of our government.
In the past few years, Kester's organization has grown at an alarming rate, and they are no longer considered just a fringe group, but a major threat.
A string of armored car and bank robberies has financed a number of Kester's terrorist activities including the hanging of Gerard Mercer, a government agent who infiltrated the White People's Coalition.
Kester is on the verge of becoming the leader of like-minded neo-Nazi groups throughout the world.
He's going to attend a three-day meeting in Germany where his proposal will be voted on by the heads of other neo-Nazi groups.
Kester is by far the most violent of all the world neo-Nazi leaders.
If he should be elected, a reign of terror is sure to follow.
Your mission, Jim, should you choose to accept it, is to discredit Kester amongst his peers and bring about the dissolution of one of the world's most heinous organizations.
As always, should you or any member of your IM Force be caught or killed, the Secretary will disavow any knowledge of your actions.
This disc will self-destruct in five seconds.
Good luck, Jim.
[ rapid beeping .]
[ hissing .]
Richard Kester the most radical neo-Nazi there is.
I've read about his White People's Coalition.
Yeah, they're kissing cousins to the Ku Klux Klan.
And he preaches his poison freely under the protection of the First Amendment.
This is the Rheinberg Hotel where the meeting will take place.
It's a dozen or so miles out of the port city of Hamburg, very private, and as far as the neo-Nazis are concerned, very safe.
We'll set up here in the attic above the lobby.
There are several outbuildings.
This is the layout.
Before Gerard Mercer was killed, he said that Kester had developed some kind of secret weapon that he wants to demonstrate at the meeting.
- And we've got to find out what that weapon is.
- Yes.
Shannon, you're going in as Fraulein Veronica Klopf, replacing the hotel manager who's been recalled to Berlin on an urgent tax matter.
What about you, Jim? I go in as this man Frederick Van Olsen, South African.
Former government computer security expert and now freelances, sells his services to the highest bidder on either side of the law.
Kester has asked Van Olsen to join him in Germany at the conference.
Fortunately, the two have never met.
Do we know what Kester wants from Van Olsen? Well, the federal government now has several cases pending against Kester.
He wants Van Olsen's help to find out just how much evidence they have.
But Mr.
Van Olsen has more than that that he can sell to Kester.
Much more.
[ men speaking German in distance .]
- Good afternoon, sir.
- Thank you.
Kester's car just pulled out front.
He wasn't due till this afternoon.
Then we should let Max and Grant know.
[ beeping .]
Yeah, Jim.
Kester's arrived ahead of schedule.
Give us about two minutes, we'll be outta here.
I'll have your bags delivered right away.
- Is there anything else? - Yes, there is.
There's a list of people staying here.
Contact them and tell 'em I want to move the first meeting up to Certainly.
Right away.
Anything else? Yes, we'd like the keys to the private wine cellar, please.
If you have wine to be stored, I Just the keys.
We'll take care of it.
Certainly.
I'll send them to your room.
It's time we realized that the world is being carved up for blacks.
White people no longer have any say in what goes on.
I don't want to wait for things to happen.
I want to make things happen.
Now! Looks as if all the gang's here.
The world's leading neo-Nazis.
We are all preparing for the day when governments will fall and race traitors will be executed.
Hans Fruger.
Neo-Nazi living in Bavaria Controls a $25 million war chest funded by the Libyan terrorists.
Well, I'd like to know more.
Charles Pembroke, leader of the National Front of England.
He was implicated in the 1987 London massacre of nine nuns and four priests.
MAX: Hey, I know this guy Estaban Cortez.
He's one of Noriega's chief money launderers.
And a cold-blooded killer.
Hmm.
Not only the head of the South American Nazi party, he had enough money left over to donate a million three to the Ku Klux Klan.
GRANT: And Gian-Carlo Tiamo Italy's leading right-wing extremist.
I only ask you to consider my proposals.
All right, looks like the little get-together is winding down.
I'm ready to go in as Frederick Van Olsen.
I'll keep Kester busy in the bar.
That'll give you a chance to look around his room.
We still have to find out what the secret weapon is.
Pardon me [ indistinct conversations .]
Mr.
Kester Frederick Van Olsen.
Mr.
Van Olsen come in, come in.
[ shower running .]
You know, Mr.
Van Olsen you and I, we have something in common.
Oh, what is that? Your wife and I have the same birthday.
We were both born on September 14.
Oh, well, you-you're mistaken.
My wife's birthday is the second of April.
Hmm.
Oh, that's funny.
L-I must be thinking of someone else.
[ laughs .]
Mr.
Kester, I didn't come here from South Africa because I need new business.
Apartheid is on the verge of collapse.
If you are successful, so are we.
I'm listening, Mr.
Van Olsen.
How would you like to be the head of a computer network that could spread your message to similar-thinking people all over the world? You know, that's something that I've thought about and dreamt about for some years.
Yes, well, I can turn that dream into a reality.
And I can do it now.
Of course, we have to discuss my fee.
I want you to come with me right now.
We'll go up to the suite.
We'll work out the details.
I'll give you a retainer.
Well, I take your word for that.
But, I mean, we can work out the details tomorrow.
I insist that we do it now.
Come on.
[ shower running .]
[ beeps .]
PHELPS: Well, something can be arranged.
Psst.
Don't move another muscle.
Eva? Well, what have we got here? I do believe this Negro was about to rob me.
EVA: Worse.
He broke in while I was in the shower.
Is that right? [ Grant shouts .]
I think you should let the hotel know what kind of help they have working for them.
No, sir.
There won't be any consulting with hotel management.
Don't worry.
They're not going to fire you.
I'm not even gonna mention it.
Down on your knees, boy.
Now! Move! Let me show you what we do with thieving trash where I come from.
I'm not going to offer you a last meal.
Do you have any last words? Mr.
Kester, you can't shoot him right here.
It would create some terrible complications, and we have more important things to do.
I mean, you don't have to kill him right now, do you? KESTER: Maybe I can wait for a more convenient time.
Hold a tournament, kill him for sport.
Exactly.
Eva, get dressed.
Take this criminal to the wine cellar.
Don't hesitate to use it if he tries anything.
On your feet; hands behind your back.
You heard him! On your feet.
Do you comprehend what's happening? We are going to kill you, but we're not going to do it just right now.
And until we're ready, we've got just the place to keep you.
PHELPS: Rudolph Silas, That's today.
Grant slipped me that just before Kester put the handcuffs on him.
What kind of sick ritual do they have in mind for him? PHELPS: I don't know.
But, nothing, believe me, nothing is gonna happen to Grant.
Now, on the other hand, we can't spring him yet.
That might make Kester suspicious and could blow the whole mission.
Well, as far as the hotel goes, there have been no arrivals for anything even close to a Rudolph Silas.
Wait a minute.
Maybe it's not the name of a person.
Maybe the name of a corporation, or a building, or a ship.
Here we are.
Cargo freighter Rudolph Silas.
Registered in the Philippines, purchased All right, we're a dozen miles outside Hamburg.
We have to get there, meet that ship, and I'll bet we find Mr.
Kester's secret weapon.
The pilot's leaving.
Time to make our move.
Captain Marks, I'm Lieutenant Dressen from the Customs Service.
This is Drs.
Hoffman and Dr.
Lieber.
How do you do? Your last port was Malta, Captain.
All ships from that region are to be examined for traces of the Mediterranean Fruit Fly virus.
But we have no agricultural products aboard.
Ah, but we are conducting tests on all ships from that region.
The pilot didn't mention anything about this.
MAX: Captain the pilot is a very busy man.
SHANNON: We need access to the entire ship.
I will have to check with the owner.
Well, you go ahead and do that, Captain.
Besides, we have several other ships we need to examine.
When can we reschedule? Possibly, uh, Friday.
NICHOLAS: Friday.
Good.
Until then, Captain.
No one will be allowed on or off the ship.
You will be under strict quarantine.
I see.
If you could conduct your tests now, I would appreciate it.
Thank you.
I'II, uh, see you're left alone to get on with your work.
Computers are miraculous things, Mr.
Kester.
I can do what we call shadow your system into the World Financial Network.
That's the network that links all the leading banks and brokerage houses in the world.
Also the most secure.
But it was I who helped develop the open key cryptology they use for their security.
Now, once in the World Financial Network, there are other things we can do that I think might interest you.
Such as? Well, there's a thing we call the salami technique.
That's where you peel away small bits from large banks.
So small they don't even know it.
But in the course of a year, it could be worth millions.
In 48 hours, the scope of the White People's Coalition is going to increase tremendously.
I want these other organizations to join the network, but I must have complete control.
I saved the best till last.
They each get this card.
They enter their passwords and their codes on the card.
That gives them certain benefits of the system, it gives them greater security, and it gives you control of everything.
[ Adolf Hitler declaiming fiercely .]
[ crowd chanting .]
These other organizations will want proof.
A demonstration that you can do what you say you can do.
Well, of course.
Set up a meeting.
Nicholas, I'm coming up empty.
Shannon, so am I.
Listen, I can't find any cargo aboard this ship, let alone some secret weapon.
I'm going to check the cargo areas near the engine room.
Right, Shannon.
Shannon, Nicholas, Kester's just coming on board with Fruger.
Shannon, if I were you, I'd stay out of sight.
He may recognize you from the hotel.
I hear you, Max.
I'm Richard Kester.
I'm the owner of this ship.
Is there a problem? Not at all.
This is just a routine investigation.
I served with this unit when I was in the service.
Blud und Eisen.
We were strong but proud.
Our motto, Blud und Eisen.
Blud und Eisen.
Blood and Iron.
[ chuckles .]
You're quite tall.
How tall are you? Six-three.
A true Aryan.
All of our men in uniform should be such fine specimens.
Hans.
It is still possible, my friend.
We have the power to make it happen.
The fight for the mind begins in the cradle.
In order for our movement to succeed, a baby's earliest fairy tales must be in accordance with our ideals.
You are, of course, correct.
And hopefully someday in the future, all of these ideals will be realized.
[ projector clacking .]
[ fanfare playing .]
This is something I'm doing now.
[ Hitler speaking German .]
[ crowd cheering .]
[ Hitler speaking German .]
Soldier! Who are you watching? The Fuhrer, sir.
Our God and master.
Boys, attention! About turn! One, two, three [ singing German song .]
[ Hitler shouting, crowd cheering .]
[ .]
They-they think he's alive.
I've had them since birth.
This ship is their home.
I've kept them in the most remote parts of the South Pacific.
[ chuckling .]
They They know only what I want them to know.
It's living proof of what I can achieve.
[ singing continues .]
Not for the future, Fruger.
Now, now! [ singing continues .]
[ singing continues .]
[ camera shutter snapping .]
What kind of psychotic minds are at work here? Oh, Shannon.
This was Hitler's dream.
[ singing continues .]
Jim.
Yeah, Nicholas? I think we just found Kester's secret weapon.
Listen.
[ singing continues .]
[ blows whistle .]
[ blows whistle .]
Follow me, boys.
[ blows whistle .]
No one is to know these boys are here.
Is that clear? Our policy provides complete privacy for our guests.
Shoulders back, Andrew.
Stand up straight.
Very good.
These boys have strict dietary restrictions.
They are to receive no food and drink that does not appear on this list.
No radio or television.
Have it removed from the building.
I'll see to it right away.
We'll provide all the entertainment that they need.
To reward your good behavior, I'm going to hold a hunt.
I've got just the person you can shoot for the sport of it.
Sports are so important to young boys.
Now that we know about Mr.
Kester's hunt, we can use that to spring Grant and plan a few surprises of our own.
Got to be the most demented group I've ever come across.
Well, you're right, Nicholas, but don't make the mistake of underestimating them.
What do you have, Shannon? Well, IM Research has come up with something new.
This photograph was taken of a kidnap victim, whose parents were former followers of Kester's.
By using computer graphics [ whirring .]
we can analyze the skeletal structure and predict with a high degree of accuracy, what this child would look like, at two years old at four years old.
Six, eight and today.
The boy you photographed, Nicholas.
Well, it's likely they've all been kidnapped.
They've had no contact with the real world.
They only believe what Kester wants them to.
Well, they did that in Nazi Germany.
They made the children think the fuehrer was sent from heaven to protect them from evil things called the Allies who would eat children.
Kester's booked the conference room for tomorrow night.
I'm sure the kids are gonna put on quite a performance.
What we saw on the boat was just a rehearsal.
Then I think the key to Mr.
Kester's downfall is to have him go ahead with his program tomorrow night.
We'll just make a few alterations of our own.
VOGEL: Good day for a hunt.
Wouldn't you say? What we have here is something to help the boys track you.
[ beeping .]
I am going to free your feet.
We want to make this hunt as interesting as possible.
[ grunting .]
On the other hand, this is the boys' first hunt.
We don't want them to come back empty-handed.
[ grunting .]
[ grunting .]
So the hunt begins now.
The first team to get him wins a prize.
[ whistle blows .]
- [ silenced gunshots .]
- [ grunting .]
[ beeping .]
[ beeping .]
[ .]
We've got to hurry.
[ beeping .]
Come on.
[ beeping rapidly .]
That way.
Come here! [ beeping quickens .]
[ grunting .]
There he is! Yeah, we got him! - Come on.
- Come on! Get around him.
Close it up.
[ whistle blowing .]
Stop! The hunt is over.
But don't you want us to kill him? No, I don't want you to kill him.
I want everyone back at the bunk house.
ALL: Yes, leader.
[ whistle blows .]
[ grunts .]
Sorry we cut it close.
We couldn't help it.
You okay? They're insane! This is like a nightmare! That's the trouble; it's no nightmare.
It's all too real.
Look, we've got to do something about this.
We were going to take the life of another human being.
Why? What do you know about him? Tell me.
He eats young children.
What else? He has horns on his head.
Now, listen to me very carefully.
None of those things are true.
I want you to go and talk to him and find out for yourselves.
I command you to go over and introduce yourselves.
Hello.
My name's Grant.
Hi.
I'm Peter.
Mine's Marcos.
I would like to get to know all of you.
And answer all of your questions.
It's amazing, isn't it? With all the poison they've been taught, didn't take much to turn them around.
My name's Robbie.
You're right, Nicholas.
But these kids are still gonna need a lot of help when we get them home.
Oh, Kester called.
I told him Grant was dead, and that Eva was gonna take the body to Bavaria and bury it on a farm somewhere.
She won't be back till tomorrow night.
We've got Eva and Vogel tied up in the hotel storage cellar.
We found speakers among the bunk pillows along with tapes.
Subliminal messages while they sleep.
Yesterday, we substituted our own.
He's planning a pretty big show.
Do we have some visual effects of our own? He'll think he's on MTV.
All right.
You know what do do.
I've got to get ready for my own performance for Kester.
It's all very simple, gentlemen.
What Mr.
Van Olsen is proposing is that by forming our own computer network, we will not only have access to government and military files, but also new opportunities to finance our operations.
PEMBROKE: How do we know the system works? We'd like to see more tangible evidence.
Of course.
You ready, Jim? I'm assuming your organization has a Swiss bank account? If you'd provide me with the numbers of that account, I'll give you a demonstration.
We are able to penetrate various international financial institutions and set up a virus program, whereby we can siphon off cash in ways that are virtually undetectable.
Here you are, Mr.
Van Olsen.
Thank you, sir.
Now, for the purpose of this demonstration, we'll transfer a nominal amount.
Say $100,000.
Using open key cryptology, that shouldn't be a problem.
For your sake, I hope there is not a problem, because if it does not work, Mr.
Van Olsen, you will not leave this room alive.
Grant, you can make the transfer, can't you? Grant? Is the relay I planted working? It'll work It'll work.
It's got to.
Are you finished, Mr.
Van Olsen? I need more time, Jim.
I'll just be, uh, a moment longer.
Is there some difficulty? Jim, it's done.
The funds are in your account.
I wish to verify a transaction of funds to my account.
My identification code is D274^ B14^ J.
Yes, I will hold.
Come on.
Be there.
I see.
Thank you.
$100,000 was just transferred to my account.
[ chuckling .]
[ appreciative murmuring .]
The benefits of our new association are obvious, gentlemen.
We will give you our final decision this evening.
Instead of teaching today's lesson myself, our guest will be taking my place.
Please come to the table.
We're gonna talk about a great man.
One of the fuehrer's generals? GRANT: No.
No, Peter.
He wasn't a military leader.
He had no connection with the fuehrer.
Was he a king? In a way.
But not in the way that you think.
He had no riches.
No wealth of any kind.
He had no armies.
He had no weapons.
But what he did have was far more powerful than all those things.
He had ideas.
And the king was in his name.
His name was the Reverend Dr Martin Luther King, Jr.
And he had a dream.
I've arranged for the menu, the wine list, and the flowers, per your instructions.
Yes, no mistakes.
No interruptions.
This is the most important night of my life.
- Do you understand that? - Certainly.
Good.
Got to get to the bunk house and inspect the boys.
And he believed that all men are created equal.
And he said "enough.
" [ beeping .]
SHANNON: Nicholas! Kester's on his way.
Thanks for the warning, Shannon.
[ grunts softly .]
[ sighs .]
Yes, sir.
They look mighty fine.
You've done a good job with them, Vogel.
Thank you, sir.
Do they know what to do for tonight's program? They know exactly what to do.
Including some new things, chosen in honor for our special guests? Yes, sir.
Absolutely.
Is that right, boy? You've learned some new things for tonight? Yes, sir.
Well! Maybe they'll go through it once, for me? Yes, they could do that, but they've gone through it so many times, that to do it again, especially in your presence, will take away from tonight's performance.
We don't want them to be over-rehearsed.
We'll save it for tonight.
[ grunting .]
[ engine starts .]
- [ silenced gunshot .]
- [ grunts .]
Getting ready for tonight? Everything's under control, Mr.
Kester.
Good.
[ engine starts .]
I want to give it to these guys in quadraphonic.
Tell me about it.
By a majority of four to one.
Richard Kester will be inducted tonight as our world leader.
You have already entered your password keys on the laser cards? I will present them to Kester this evening.
This network will bring us power.
If anything goes wrong, Fruger, I hold you responsible.
Grant, how close are you? Thank you.
Nicholas? We're ready here, Jim.
[ men murmuring .]
[ silverware banging, conversation stops .]
This is the night that will live forever in history.
By joining the White People's Coalition, under the leadership of Richard Kester, the course we have taken will take on new dimensions.
[ vociferous murmurs .]
Here are the laser cards, with all our passwords and codes.
Well, you know what to do with these, Mr.
Van Olsen.
I certainly do.
Gentlemen! A violent crusade begins in this room tonight.
I believe in action, not words.
So I want to show you what is possible.
What the future holds for us.
[ snaps fingers .]
[ fanfare plays .]
[ .]
- [ music fades .]
- Gentlemen I've had these boys since birth.
They're an example of exactly what's possible.
Total Aryan control.
Allow me to introduce their headmaster, Mr.
Eric Vogel.
MAN: Ja gut! MAN 2: Bravo! I just want to say that, while I have worked hard with the boys, the concept you're about to see was entirely conceived by Richard Kester.
MAN: Bravo, Kester! Go ahead and take all the credit.
You deserve it.
One, two, one Has anybody here seen my old friend Martin? I have a dream where they will be able to sit down - Can you tell me where he's gone? - together at the table of brotherhood.
I have a dream - that one day - ? He freed a lot of people ? ROBERT KENNEDY: And its disease - ? But it seems the good die young ? -knows no bounds or race or nation - Not as a call to bear arms - ? I just turned around ? - ? And he's gone ? - How dare you! Vogel.
Vogel! - I told you, Fruger.
I told you! - [ singing continues .]
Vogel! Vogel! I do not shrink from this responsibility I welcome it.
Knows no bounds or race or nation - [ clamoring .]
- [ singing continues .]
KING: Even in the state of Mississippi a state where [ singing and clamoring continue .]
KESTER: Vogel! [ singing and clamoring continue .]
KING: together at the table of brotherhood sweltering with the heat of oppression It's your fault.
You wanted him as leader.
[ singing continues .]
Aah! [ voices and music overlap .]
Get the cards.
Where are the cards? FRUGER: Where's Van Olsen? Find him! Now! No.
Let me explain.
You don't understand.
You don't unders [ singing continues .]
FRUGER: Finished! Race traitor! to be self-evident, that all men [ engine idling .]
There's a plane waiting for them at the airport.
There'll be a team of doctors to greet them when they touch down in the States.
Yeah, I think I'll ride along with them.
And what about Kester? He's given away all their secrets.
I think we can close the books on Richard Kester.
Permanently.
