Transcript
00:00:00.000
You were not born into this earth to be as slaves to the Jews and their puppets.
00:00:14.120
To conquer it, to rule it, to have dominion over it.
00:00:22.720
The Australian public are going to have to accept Hitler.
00:00:48.140
Our people, Australians, we're a nation, we're a folk.
00:00:53.920
We're going to head down this road here, cross over the bridge.
00:01:34.560
It's where we have a new company in Iran for Tambo.
00:01:37.680
Thatํ boards all the way along the waters up.
00:01:41.260
That's the reason why a receiver designed its name.
00:01:47.620
Typically the gal red flag is up against Hitler at all,
00:03:01.740
It was premiered on Amazon Prime in about 2017.
00:03:05.340
I suggest you go back and watch the first four episodes we did if you want to, you know, get up to where we're at now.
00:03:12.640
It's just based on the book by Philip K. Dick, The Man in the High Castle.
00:03:18.100
And it depicts a society that, you know, would have potentially existed or could have existed if the Allies had not won World War II.
00:04:04.040
If you watched the last episode at the end, Frank was planning on assassinating the crown prince of Japan who was making a speech there in the Reich, which is what is commonly known now as New York.
00:04:18.100
Frank, and he didn't end up doing it because there was that kid that you saw at the beginning, and I guess it made him feel some kind of way.
00:04:24.720
So he didn't end up doing it, but somebody did.
00:04:27.320
And because this kid witnessed him with that gun ready to shoot, and now he's taken off, but he's left a piece of evidence.
00:04:35.020
I anticipate that they are going to be looking for Frank.
00:05:37.760
I also anticipate we're going to find that this was set up by the Japanese government,
00:06:21.760
Again, does anybody get the Ghostbusters theme?
00:06:38.760
That's what the ambulances used to look like back in the day.
00:06:42.160
Although I think the Ghostbusters, I don't know if it was a hearse,
00:07:08.760
Also, it looks like they're patting down people now after this happened,
00:07:14.680
and maybe something they should have done beforehand.
00:07:16.060
And our friend here who got some kind of note, we don't know what it says yet.
00:07:20.260
It was some secret note passed from the Japanese Minister of the Interior.
00:07:26.600
And he's trying to get rid of that because it obviously is damning
00:08:15.620
he's gonna be he's gonna get uh well he'll probably won't but you know he's going to the gulag
00:09:07.460
Just imagine how happy you'd be if he was a Jew, finding that.
00:09:40.460
I knew I should have shot you in the fucking leg.
00:09:49.460
All right now, go home and stay off the street until work tomorrow.
00:09:57.460
I just realized that if, I'm not sure if they have the technology in this timeline,
00:10:01.460
but yeah, that guy Ed was the one that was shooting the gun,
00:10:06.460
So if they're able to check for GSR gunshot residue,
00:10:09.460
which I don't think they can at that time that this story takes place,
00:10:20.460
All right, you cannot tell anybody about this, okay?
00:11:35.460
Don't come off pretty, of course get away from the public.
00:11:44.460
Ten to the Prince of Masha, come off very soon.
00:11:54.460
So it looks like they're doing roadblocks for anybody coming back into the Japanese autonomous zone or whatever they want to call it.
00:12:24.460
No, I'm not okay, bitch. They killed my family because of you.
00:12:54.460
What happened? Ed said you were going to do something terrible. Are you okay?
00:13:46.460
Oh, something going on out there that closed half the city.
00:14:18.460
I don't know. It's like kind of hard to tell, but like the mother, I mean, it seems like she was gone like a week or more, but I don't know.
00:14:28.460
Damn, look at that TV. That old school TV. It looks like those Apple computers.
00:14:40.460
It reminds me of those iMacs, the original iMacs.
00:15:10.460
I have spent the entire night in this chair, Dagomi-san. I am rested.
00:15:30.460
Whoever is responsible for this outrage will be brought to justice.
00:15:46.460
The final bullet fragments were removed, but he remains in a critical condition.
00:16:32.460
What's going on out there? Why are there Japs all over the street?
00:16:40.460
That used to be a common thing when I was growing up.
00:16:52.460
Do you think the Nazis are finally going to invade?
00:16:54.460
I mean, it's like the start of the occupation all over again.
00:17:17.460
So busy you couldn't stop by and say hi to your mother?
00:17:21.460
I mean, I thought maybe you got a job or something.
00:17:35.460
It's just a terrible thing what they did to that boy.
00:17:39.460
I don't think she knows what happened to Frank's sister and nephew and niece, but she's about to find out.
00:18:07.460
I'll tell you, Hitler was never going to stand for the Jews living here in peace forever.
00:18:12.460
I tell you, that bastard has got a plan for all of us.
00:18:16.460
So she's basically saying that the Japanese don't want the Jews there either.
00:18:23.460
So seems like there is a little bit of truth in this.
00:19:16.460
Oh, why are you doing something as I can retire?
00:19:46.220
those coffee makers that he had, that load of coffee makers.
00:20:16.220
It's kind of weird, I guess they didn't want to know where the
00:20:42.060
open Gruppenfuhrer's offices, but you would think he would already have known that.
00:20:46.980
I don't think they keep it a secret, but, oh, well, I guess maybe he's a little paranoid
00:20:50.560
because he was, you know, shot at, so possibly.
00:21:00.320
If you could just stop it bleeding, I can't be late for work.
00:21:07.840
If I'd known the damage I'd caused by getting on that table.
00:21:32.560
Oh, we got to bring in the references to the, you know, Holocaust.
00:21:58.720
He's, uh, he's holding a kind of memorial service later, but, I-
00:22:48.560
So she's, there's going to be a lot of animosity between these two
00:24:07.540
They took my passport at the embassy and they haven't left me out of their sight since.
00:24:29.120
I cannot leave here without completing my mission.
00:24:33.180
So I guess that envelope or whatever it was he passed him was the microfilm.
00:24:41.500
You said that your oracle favored a connection.
00:24:48.080
If you are arrested, how long before the Nazis kill you?
00:24:52.740
Our mission now is to get you out of the Pacific States alive.
00:24:57.280
Give me one more chance with the science minister.
00:24:59.260
The only chance we have is a single shuttle from here to New York tonight.
00:25:09.080
To go, Mr. Gomesan, risking your life to plan the world war is one thing.
00:25:22.040
Risking it to save mine was never part of the deal.
00:25:24.560
I will not wash another good man's blood from my hands today.
00:25:32.520
I wonder if this is a fill-in for the coin-clipping factory.
00:26:04.880
What, you didn't think she was covered by you can't tell anybody?
00:26:27.200
Get this through your head, you Jew motherfucker, you.
00:27:04.780
And in case you didn't catch the other episodes, they make where he works, they make imitation guns.
00:27:13.120
But that's why he had to get those old bullets because it was, I guess, a classic gun that fired classic bullets.
00:27:18.960
If the gunman is not apprehended, Sergeant Yoshida,
00:27:48.960
you will act as Kaishokunin when I commit seppuku.
00:27:57.920
Wow, he's going to commit seppuku if he doesn't find the shooter.
00:28:26.420
Miss Crane, have you reported to the Kenpyatai?
00:28:39.740
I'm afraid that, as a wanted person, there can be no question of you continuing to practice with us.
00:28:49.500
You shouldn't have been practicing with them anyways.
00:29:02.620
You shouldn't have been practicing with them anyways.
00:29:29.320
so what do you think guys is she gonna go in the same room as frank's uh sister did
00:29:39.240
she's gonna get the gas obviously not because she's the protagonist of the story but uh you
00:29:44.640
know i don't know like that's that's what they did to her so you would think the punishment would be
00:29:49.280
the same mr blake i am major clem heil hitler heil hitler apologies for keeping me waiting i hope it
00:30:08.580
wasn't too uncomfortable that was uncomfortable as a ride here it's not like i expected a parade
00:30:17.260
or anything those guys were pretty rough if you were being watched by insurgents at the truck drop
00:30:24.180
off your cover will remain intact we haven't heard from you since you set off to meet the man in the
00:30:34.080
high castle no no we have several gaps we need to fill
00:30:42.440
where were you miss crane i went to look for my sister
00:31:08.980
there was no sign of her i took a bus to yosemite
00:31:22.340
i don't understand mr blake these insurgents on the mountain what did they want from you
00:31:31.920
that oprah grubinfuhrer smith ordered you not to take the film with you
00:31:35.760
so he's being questioned now by oprah grubinfuhrer's uh right-hand man there
00:31:43.480
but i thought i had a real shot at finding the man in the high castle
00:31:48.760
and as it turns out the film was the only thing that convinced him i wasn't a spy
00:32:17.880
what is it motherfucker do you have it did you lose it where did it go
00:32:25.400
again i don't think that the film he gave them is the real film
00:32:29.720
i have a feeling that he's got a little trick up his sleeve or a film up his sleeve
00:32:39.840
the film i was carrying sir was taken from me by limio washington leader in the resistance in cannon city
00:33:54.500
You're not gonna last, buddy. He's gonna find out.
00:34:09.500
Told him to leave her alone because he was using her.
00:34:16.500
I thought she was the courier you had told me about, sir.
00:34:19.500
Did Major Clem tell you how important it is not to leave anything out of this account, Joe?
00:34:27.500
Look, this whole thing has been a misunderstanding.
00:34:39.500
Listen, I'm a woman and all, but I have to say, if somebody slapped me across the face like that for like literally nothing, I'm gonna feel a kind of way about it.
00:34:57.500
And then I, you know, I guess I'm just not gonna sit there and take it.
00:35:17.500
If I'd known you were looking for me, I would have come back sooner to clear things up.
00:35:37.500
And if we fail to live by them, the consequences are severe.
00:35:47.500
Is there anything you would like to add to your transcript, Joe?
00:36:09.500
I feel like Rupert Sewell, who plays Obergruppenfรผhrer, was like fit for this role.
00:36:24.500
Like just the whole, like, the way he plays the character.
00:36:32.500
But things will never return to normal for you.
00:37:03.500
Maybe that was one of the guys that was leading the resistance, maybe?
00:37:36.500
I was still, you know, I'm still able to use the internet to find numbers.
00:37:40.500
And the phone books were a very short part of my very young life.
00:37:45.500
Take a hard look at the scenery here, because this is what we're going to look like here in Canada shortly when the Indians take over.
00:38:11.500
It's going to just look like a total trash heap, you know, fucking garbage dump.
00:39:22.180
I need to know if you delivered the film he gave you.
00:39:28.180
Enough to know how badly she wanted to get that film to Cannon City.
00:40:05.620
All we know is we get them to him and he passes back intelligence that we can use against the ponds.
00:40:12.360
If you came here looking for answers about the films, you'll be disappointed.
00:40:28.900
Once you've decided to go on, you've got to find a how.
00:40:45.540
You'll also notice true to Jewish propaganda movies and stuff like that shows that the woman is the hero of the story.
00:40:53.620
She's, you know, they're framing her or setting it up that she's going to be the one that saves the world.
00:40:58.320
And, you know, in real world terms, that's highly unlikely to happen.
00:41:21.860
Sir, I know it doesn't seem like a complete success.
00:41:29.040
You know, I often wonder if this came out now, if they would be allowed to even do that.
00:41:34.340
Like if they'd be allowed to show that kind of stuff.
00:41:37.480
Like I'm sure that there would be some complaints from the ADL about the hateful imagery and stuff like that.
00:41:42.120
But my mission wasn't to retrieve a film or kill the man in the high castle, sir.
00:41:48.080
My mission was to identify and gather intelligence on key figures in the Resistance.
00:42:18.400
You are one component in a complex machine that only works if every part does exactly what it's supposed to do in sync with the whole.
00:42:30.880
Now, if you decide, without knowing what the other components are doing, to simply go your own way,
00:42:39.100
eventually, that machine is going to break down.
00:42:42.940
A euphemism for current society where they're trying to have a mixed pot where everybody can do their own kind of thing,
00:42:52.340
practice their own religion, and they think we're going to live harmoniously.
00:42:55.520
I like to think this is a euphemism for how that will not work.
00:43:00.780
Don't ever disobey a direct order for me again, Joe.
00:43:52.780
That's the whole project or whatever it is the films were.
00:43:57.440
I'm inviting you to my house for the celebration.
00:44:03.280
I know you haven't spent a lot of time among your own recently, and, uh, tomorrow is about community.
00:44:54.280
Is that Japanese people at the funeral for the guy's wife?
00:45:38.020
You know how it would look to have no ceremony at all for my family?
00:45:53.240
If there are no answers here, then where do I look?
00:46:04.820
Do you have any idea how many different fucking ways I nearly died trying to get that film to where it was supposed to go?
00:46:19.080
It's the only way the pawns could have known where that film would be.
00:46:21.500
The day they took Randall, he mailed this to the box we use.
00:46:44.540
But if whoever this is is leaking information about our activity, we need to know about it.
00:47:22.040
Before you go into a government building looking for someone who might have got at least two people killed,
00:47:26.240
you better be sure a certain kind of life is no better than death for you.
00:47:31.500
Because that's a choice you might not get to make again.
00:47:38.160
Death is a natural part of life cycle for all things.
00:47:45.840
And not something to be fair or spoken in harsh tone.
00:47:53.900
Therefore, we must not weep today for the loss of
00:48:12.180
these people don't even clearly know his family.
00:48:26.180
I noticed there was a Buddha in the background as well.
00:48:33.300
And the dad there and the husband is like having to sit there and listen to
00:48:39.340
platitudes and stuff like that when it was the Japanese people that killed them
00:48:42.920
So he's got to listen to Japanese people pretend that they actually care.
00:49:29.260
Laura worked for me for a little while in the hardware store and the mission.
00:49:55.240
If you're ever in the neighborhood and you feel like talking,
00:50:11.560
Where's his little hat and the curls that come out?
00:50:49.780
Guests of our ministry have asked when their passports would be returned.
00:50:56.240
As soon as their identities are verified and their reasons for being in the Pacific States,
00:51:14.360
You met with a foreign visitor at his hotel this morning.
00:51:40.700
Then no doubt you will understand why I must disappoint you,
00:52:48.640
This diplomatic ticket enables you to board any flight in the Pacific States without identification.
00:53:46.020
I'm sorry, excuse me, excuse me, excuse me, sir, my apologies, but I know you, don't
00:54:13.560
say. So if that's a bullet that he planted in the Japanese guy's pocket, then was he the
00:54:36.020
shooter possibly, or does he have access to the bullet? Although it looked like it was
00:55:10.200
He told that someone in person now would see me at that job.
00:55:17.200
He told that someone in person now would see me at that job.
00:55:25.200
He told that someone in person now would see me at that job.
00:55:32.200
He told that someone in person now would see me at that job.
00:56:00.200
Realistically, why wouldn't they take the Japanese girl?
00:56:14.200
I don't know if you have any positions available at the moment, Mr. Eto.
00:56:21.200
But I'd like to be considered for anything suitable.
