1 Vienna before the war -- city of love and laughter -- -- living gayly to the music of the waltz and the opera -- -- ! 2 "-- and just as we were about to kiss -- -- her husband burst in -- -- !" 3 "-- and what did the husband do -- ?" 4 "-- he pulled down the shades!" 5 "Sorry, Captain von Raden, we haven't a seat left." 6 "Max, there isn't a seat left in the house!" 7 "Here's one seat that has just been returned." 8 "No, Karl -- those dear little girls at Sacher's are calling me!" 9 "Franz -- -- you were frightfully late --" 10 "There must be some mistake -- my cousin was to join me here." 11 "Please -- forgive my intrusion." 12 "But this is your seat. You will embarrass me if you leave." 13 "I foolishly came away without money -- you see -- I expected my cousin --" 14 "If you would be so kind as to drop me at my home--" 15 "You are very kind. Could I offer you some coffee -- or cognac?" 16 "I'm told the lights often go out in Vienna -- -- when it rains." 17 "Then you are a stranger here?" 18 "Vienna is not my home -- but I am hardly a stranger." 19 "Sorry, sweetheart -- but you know it's spring!" 20 "Tomorrow night I go to Berlin, Tania -- but we'll have the whole day together." 21 "The peasants call that the magic stream. They say it always reflects the face of one's true love." 22 "The magic stream has told you -- that I love you." 23 "This day has been so perfect. Why must it end -- ?" 24 "But it isn't the end, Tania -- it's only the beginning for us." 25 "Karl, I love you. No matter what happens, you'll remember -- -- I love you!" 26 "Good-bye, dearest Karl --" 27 "Not good-bye -- I'll be back soon. And then we'll have more days like this." 28 "Can there ever be another day like this?" 29 "Uncle Eric! What are you doing here?" 30 "Waiting for you. I've tried all day to find you." 31 "I suppose the woman you were with at the opera last night -- was your companion today?" 32 "No wonder you're chief of the Secret Service, Uncle Eric!" 33 "We have just learned that that woman is Tania Fedorova -- one of Russia's cleverest spies!" 34 "We went to arrest her an hour ago -- but she was gone!" 35 "Russia knows our military movements. That woman is in league with someone in our War Office!" 36 "We have entrusted you with an important mission, Karl. These plans must reach Berlin." 37 "Shall I make up your berth, Sir?" 38 "Karl, I had to follow you -- -- to see you again -- -- just once." 39 "You are a very clever actress, Tania Fedorova --" 40 "How simple it all was -- the seat at the opera -- the expected cousin -- and the fool who fell in love with you!" 41 "Karl, I admit I planned it all -- to make you love me, if necessary --" 42 "But what I had not planned was that I should -- love you." 43 "You do believe me -- you must!" 44 "Believe -- a spy?" 45 "You are a soldier -- -- you serve your country in one way -- -- I, mine, in another." 46 "With lies -- -- with your honor -- --" 47 "Karl -- don't make me hate you!" 48 "At least, your hate would be honest." 49 "Karl, I gave you my love -- --" 50 "Yes -- for a price." 51 "The lady got off at midnight. She left this for you." 52 "--you have broken the holy vows of secrecy, and have betrayed the honor of your country!" 53 -- Warsaw -- The home of General Boris Alexandroff, chief of Russian Military Intelligence Department. 54 "You should be very proud of your work, Tania." 55 "Tania's cleverness not only won us these plans -- but put von Raden in prison!" 56 "Tania -- -- you should be very happy tonight." 57 "I'm terribly tired, Boris -- after the long journey." 58 "Don't go, Tania -- I've a little supper arranged for us." 59 "Please, Boris -- not tonight -- wait --" 60 "Wait -- wait! That's all I've done for two years!" 61 "Boris -- I can't go on. I hate this way of serving my country -- with lies -- -- with treachery!" 62 "When one takes the oath to serve the Czar as a spy -- -- the only release is --- death." 63 "I know you are innocent, Karl. You are a von Raden --" 64 "There's only one way to prove your innocence. Someone in the War Office helped that woman!" 65 "If I could get my hands on Tania Fedorova, I'd choke the truth from her!" 66 "You must get that information!" 67 "When you reach Warsaw -- go to Vadich's Cafe. He is in our service." 68 "Private party in room twelve -- they want a pianist." 69 "To Tania!" 70 "Tania, the beautiful!" 71 "You are romantic, my friend -- but in this case -- indiscreet. Understand?" 72 "Boris -- -- shall I sing for you?" 73 "We have a dangerous audience, musician. We must give a good performance." 74 "Play the same song again. I shall sing that." 75 "No encores, Boris. I'm not in the mood." 76 "Boris, I want to dance. Let's go somewhere else." 77 "Karl, why have you come here? Every minute you're facing death!" 78 "And I'll stay until I force the truth from you!" 79 "Karl, I love you. For one moment you turned my love to hate -- -- and I tried to make you suffer -- -- as I suffered." 80 "I -- I missed my bracelet, Boris. The musician found it -- --" 81 "I am grateful to anyone who serves my lady." 82 "Tomorrow I'm giving a ball in honor of Mademoiselle's birthday. Have him here." 83 "Be careful -- -- it is better for you not to be seen." 84 "I want you to sing for me tonight. I've sent for the musician -- -- that will please you." 85 "Excellency, the messenger is here." 86 "Max Heinrich never fails us. It's the new Austrian border fortifications." 87 "By the way, Max reports that von Raden has escaped from the military prison." 88 "Tania -- I believe you love someone else! If you do --" 89 "We are all waiting to hear you sing." 90 "Sing that song -- er -- the one you do so well together!" 91 "Just one more song --" 92 "Please, Boris -- no more tonight." 93 "You seem very nervous, Tania. Your hands are like ice." 94 "Your friend Max Heinrich is the traitor! These plans and letters will prove it!" 95 "My car is outside! It will take you to the frontier!" 96 "I can't go, Tania -- and leave you here in danger --" 97 "You must go, Karl -- for my sake. It is your only chance -- my only chance!" 98 "You do believe I love you?" 99 "Tania -- -- you will come to me?" 100 "You left me alone, Boris -- -- I thought I might find you here." 101 "A charming inspiration -- no one will disturb us." 102 "To your eyes -- and your lips --" 103 "I could have sworn I put those plans from Max Heinrich -- in here." 104 "It doesn't matter -- only blank papers. The real ones are here." 105 "I taught you all you know, Tania -- -- but I didn't teach you all I know!" 106 "Did you think the pupil could match wits with the master?" 107 "Excellency, they've captured von Raden in the garden." 108 "Bring the prisoner here!" 109 "The state can deal with spies. But I will attend to your lover!" 110 "Boris -- please -- let him go! I'll never see him again!" 111 "See, Boris -- -- I love you. Promise you'll let him go!" 112 "I promise you nothing! I want you! Tonight -- your lover dies!" 113 "Boris dear -- -- you don't have to see that Austrian now -- --" 114 "General Alexandroff says to send him in -- alone." 115 "Your wife?" 116 "Welcome home, Captain von Raden!"
