The New World [1.01]

Don Warren: You know what those brownshirts out there would do if they caught you? [referring to SD officers in security camera footage] Joe Blake: I'm not afraid to die. Warren: Me, either. Might be a relief, actually. But how you feel about pain? Blake: Pain? Warren: Yeah. When they're plucking your fingernails out one by one, or they're cracking your balls open like walnuts. That's when maybe you stop caring about what your old man said and tell Johnny Jackboot out there my name, or just about anything else he wants. Blake: You're so afraid, why are you here? Warren: I fought in the war, kid. I saw my buddies' brains get blown out on Virginia Beach. You... You're just a punk who could get me caught. Blake: Yeah, I guess I'm afraid of pain. I don't have any buddies who died in the war. I don't really know what freedom is. But I'm not a punk and I'm not a spy, Mr. Warren. I'm here because I want to do the right thing. So you gonna give me the job or not?

The New World [1.01]

Police officer: Oh, that? A soldier so fierce he’d kill a rose. Joe Blake: That was you? Police officer: A long time ago. We lost the war didn’t we? Now I can’t even remember what we were fighting for. Joe Blake: [noticing ashes falling like snowflakes] What is that? Police officer: Oh, that's the hospital. Blake: The hospital? Police officer: Yeah, Tuesdays, they burn cripples... the terminally ill. Drag on the state.

The New World [1.01]

Frank Frink: Hey, what is this? Juliana Crain: It's newsreel film. Frink: Yeah, I see that. Crain: [elated at scenes of the flag-raising on Mt Suribachi] It shows us winning the war. Frink: But we didn't win the war. Crain: That's what they told us. Frink: Jesus, I know what this is. Crain: What? Frink: The Man in the High Castle. Crain: The who? Frink: Some guy they told me about, he makes these anti-fascist movies. Crain: [notes footage of VJ-Day celebrations] Makes them GIs in Times Square. Frink: I know they look real. Crain: They look real because they are real.

The New World [1.01]

Joe Blake: [on the phone] Hey, it's me. John Smith: How was your journey? Blake: No one stopped me. Smith: Then your cover's intact. I'll tell your father, Joe. I know he'll be very proud. Blake: Thank you, Obergruppenfuhrer. I hope so. Smith: Heil Hitler. Blake: Heil Hitler.

Sunrise [1.02]

John Smith: Why do you want to succeed, son? Why do you want to do well in school? Thomas Smith: To make my family proud. To bring honor to my school. To serve my country. John: Your goals are directed outward. A boy like Randolph wants only to gratify himself. This is the path to moral decay. The decadence ruined this country before the war. You will grow to be a useful member of society. You will make our nation stronger. Randolph will not, whatever his test score.

Sunrise [1.02]

It takes a lot of effort not to be free-- keeping your head down, holding your tongue.

Sunrise [1.02]

Lawrence: We wipe them out, yet they keep coming back like lice. John Smith: Lice don't assassinate Nazi officers. Lawrence: I only meant-- Smith: It may reassure you to liken terrorists to insects, but they inflicted great damage on us today. Never underestimate them.

Sunrise [1.02]

This ends only when people like us refuse to obey, no matter the cost.

Sunrise [1.02]

Frank Frink: I-- I'm free to go? I am free to go? Chief Insp Takeshi Kido: You have suffered enough, and I am not a monster. Frink: If you ever need any more Jews to kill, you know where to find me. Kido: Yes. I do.

The Illustrated Woman [1.03]

The Marshal: What is that smell in here? How would you describe it? Carl: I couldn't say. The Marshal: Hmm. You couldn't say. You probably spend so much time in here, you don't notice. The old books. They got the stink of their owner. Cigarettes and coffee, cat piss, smell of decay. Crown Princess: What is troubling, you my prince? Crown Prince: This visit is false. We are false. Crown Princess: How false? Your father is the Emperor. As one day you shall be. Crown Prince: My father allowed his generals to use his throne as a shield for their ambition. We merely preside over its undoing. Crown Princess: Surely it is not so bad as that. Crown Prince: [sternly at her] I'm worried about the Nazis. Don't you see? We travel on ocean liners, they travel on rocket ships. A stark difference in technology. We are but an island nation losing our grip on our colonies while the Nazis tighten theirs.

Revelations [1.04]

Juliana Crain: Have you seen the films? Lem Washington: It's not my job to see them. I just pass them along.

Revelations [1.04]

Juliana Crain: I'm not here to kill Nazis. I'm here because I need answers, and I'm not leaving until I get them. Frank Frink: [given three rounds for his Colt45 revolver] Only three? Robert Childan: This is an antique store, not an armory, and I can't guarantee they'll fire. They're 100 yen apiece. Frink: [gives yen notes] 300. [sees Childan write in a logbook] What is that? Childan: I'm required by law to keep a registry of all sales of restricted items. So these bullets were purchased by Mr. Satoshi Matsuda, a collector on his way back to Tibet. But I will need to see your identity card on the chance I need to revisit this matter with you, and that is non-negotiable. Frink: All right, all right. Come on. Childan: I suggest you work on your patience, Mr. Frink. Crown Prince of Japan: Greetings, loyal subjects. Honored guests from the Nazi Reich. And people of the American Territories, or, as they like to say here...Howdy. [crowd laughs at the greeting] All those who fought in the Gre

The New Normal [1.05]

John Smith: Do you know why you failed? 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. Now, if you decide, without knowing what the other components are doing, to simply go your own way, eventually that machine is going to break down. Don't ever disobey a direct order from me again, Joe. Nobusuke Tagomi: Ah. Inspector, please. [ushers to seats] Takeshi Kido: No, thank you, Trade Minister. I will not stay long. Tagomi: I appreciate you coming at such a busy time. Kido: What could we not discuss on the telephone? Tagomi: I felt it correct to speak in person. Guests of the Ministry have asked when their passports would be returned. I assured them I would inquire. Kido: As soon as their identities are verified and their reasons for being in the Pacific States, all of their documents will be returned. Tagomi: How long do you estimate it will take? Kido: I offer no estimate. You met with a foreign visitor

Three Monkeys [1.06]

Kotomichi: Mr. Tagomi expects complete loyalty and discretion. You will not speak of anything you hear or see, and you will not leave this level without my express permission. This is a government building, Miss Crain, patrolled by armed soldiers. Do not go anywhere without prior authorization. John Smith: You find yourself a good woman Joe. Rudolph Wegener: And until then, find as many bad ones as possible.

Three Monkeys [1.06]

You must trust the woman in your life, with your life, Joe!

Truth [1.07]

Arnold Walker: What the hell do you think you're doing snooping around the Nippon Building? [to waiter] Two coffees, please. Juliana Crain: I could say the same to you. Walker: What choice do you think I had? I had a family to support. How do you think I kept all of you safe? I swallowed my pride, and I did what I had to do. Did you have any idea that your sister was involved with these insurgents? I heard her on the wire. So did all the other listeners. I had to throw myself on the mercy of...Our benevolent employers. I had to identify her. I told them she was a kid. I told them she was my kid. I mean, hell, I worked for them for 16 years. It's got to be worth something. Crain: Sixteen years? Walker: Did you know she had a film? Crain: She did. And now there's another one. Walker: Juliana, you listen to me very carefully. You cannot get involved in this. Crain: There's something different about this one, isn't there? Walker: I don't know what it is, but I can tell you they got us work

End of the World [1.08]

Dr Adler: Um... this, um... this won't be easy for you to hear. Thomas didn't just pull a muscle wrestling, Obergruppenführer. He had a tremor. John Smith: A tremor? Adler: I wish I could tell you that it was just growing pains, but your son has a serious disease. Landouzy-Dejerine syndrome. The symptoms, vague at first, are loss of coordination, weakness in the arms, difficulty hearing... Smith: That's... That's nonsense. My son is the picture of health. Adler: I'm afraid he isn't. Within months, perhaps a year, there will be paralysis. Smith: That's a mistake, doctor. You're making a mistake. Adler: I would never tell you this were I not certain. He scored 10 out of 10 on the indicators in the Brandt-Sievers nerve test. Smith: Okay. So what's the... What's the treatment? Adler: Obergruppenführer, we're talking about a Class A congenital disorder. There is no treatment. Smith: What do you mean, there is no treatment? No, I'm not accepting that, no. There's got to be some other tests y

Kindness [1.09]

Reinhard Heydrich: Colonel. You look rested. Rudolph Wegener: Hardly. Heydrich: You've had time to reflect on your situation. Wegener: I have. This is a list of names, not just my wife and children, but her father and the rest of her family. Heydrich: Ten lives in exchange for yours. Wegener: That's the deal. Heydrich: You need not worry, Colonel. Come. You have a rocket to board. Wegener: Where am I going? Heydrich: Berlin. Wegener: What is it you expect me to do there? Heydrich: I thought it was obvious, Colonel. The Führer is old and ill, standing in the way of the empire he built. Wegener: Am I meant to talk to him? Heydrich: No, Colonel Wegener. You're meant to kill him.

Kindness [1.09]

Reinhard Heydrich: The duty of maintaining order is never as thrilling as the challenge of establishing it. Takeshi Kido: We are looking for the man who killed your guards, but I assume that's not why you asked me here. Taishi Okamura: You impounded heroin at the docks this afternoon. Am I to conclude that this was in retaliation? Kido: You may conclude as you wish. Okamura: Such behavior is futile, Chief Inspector. The Yakuza cannot be destroyed any more than the sun can destroy the shade. This has been understood in our homeland for centuries. I cannot destroy the shadows you cast, but I can and will contain it. Kido: That is my duty. Okamura: Just as it is your duty to arrest the man who shot the Crown Prince. I'm told if you do not make an arrest by tomorrow, Tokyo demands that you commit seppuku. Kido: No one need remind me of my duty. I have a suspect close at hand. Okamura: You mean that hakujin? The one who works in the replica factory? The real assassin fired from a clock towe

A Way Out [1.10]

Takeshi Kido: Go through his desk. Anything official must be destroyed. Hiroyuki Yoshida: I do not understand, sir. Kido: I think you do, Sergeant. Yoshida: What is this man's crime? Kido: The shooting of the Crown Prince. Yoshida: Hai. But we've been pursuing Frank Frink. Kido: The witness said Frank never discharged his weapon. Yoshida: Then why not arrest and interrogate this man? Kido: Because that is exactly what the Nazis would want us to do. There'd be war. A war that currently our Empire cannot win. Nobody must ever know about this, Sergeant. Yoshida: But if Frink is gone and we cannot report the capture of the real assassin, how can Tokyo be satisfied? Kido: Whatever sacrifice is necessary. That is my burden alone, and I shall carry it. Yours is to remain silent and to act as my Kaishaku-nin. Now do you understand, Yoshida-san? Yoshida: Hai. Kido: The desk. [Yoshida works on it] Rudolph Wegener: [in German, as he embraces and carries Otto] It is far from easy to be a good man.

A Way Out [1.10]

Adolf Hitler: I know Heydrich sent you to kill me [faces Wegener] and I don't believe that you are capable of doing it. Of killing anyone, ever again. You were lost, Rudolph, the moment you lost faith in the Reich. Not to me, but to yourself. Rudolph Wegener: I was lost the moment I committed evil in your name. Hitler: Killing me might reconcile you with your past, but it will also prompt the people who sent you to attack Japan immediately. You must take responsibility for the one, or the other. Wegener: I know that the sins are my own. Hitler: Your only sin is your weakness, but you can still choose to die honorably. You will spare Otto and Klaudia your shame, and I will spare their lives. Wegener: [shaken at Hitler's stipulation] God forgive me.

The Tiger's Cave [2.1]

Gen. Hidehisa Onoda, IJA: Today we enter the tiger's cave. We enter it because two weeks ago, Science Minister Shimura found a capsule in his pocket, and inside the capsule was microfilm smuggled from the Reich Research Council in Berlin. The contents of the microfilm has been confirmed. At long last, we, too, possess the data to build a Heisenberg device. When it is completed, the device must be in range of North American Nazi targets [Tagomi tries to listen but temporarily clams up] of New York City. This is our moment. We must not hesitate to seize it. Hawthorne Abendsen: Each one of these films show a reality like ours, but not ours... Some of us are just the same. Rotten or kind in one reality, rotten or kind in the next, but most people are different, depending on whether they have food in their belly or they're hungry, safe or scared. So you watch these films. You tell the Resistance what you learn about the people you see and the things. Things that could happen here, too. That

The Road Less Traveled [2.2]

Site Manager: Well, look what the wind blew in. Joe Blake: Look, I'm sorry to show up like this, sir, but... things took a little longer than I thought. Site Manager: Last funeral I went to, the whole thing lasted about an hour. You've been gone best part of three weeks. Blake: Right. I'm sorry, sir. I'm here now. Site Manager: And you expected me to keep the forklift open? Blake: No, not expected, sir. Hoped. Site Manager: Who the hell do you think you are, Blake? Blake: I don't think I'm anybody, sir. I just want to show up and do an honest day's work, if you'll let me. Site Manager: Well, you want to grab a sledgehammer and break concrete, I guess that'll be okay. That honest enough for you? Blake: Thank you, sir. [starts working] Juliana Crain: Dear Frank, I don't even know if this letter will reach you, but if you are reading this, I'm begging you, please get out of the city now. You might know already that I didn't follow the plan. But I am leaving town now. One day I hope I'll g

Travelers [2.3]

Helen Smith: It's cute, isn't it? You're lucky to get one of the singles. Most of the other girls have to share an apartment. Juliana Crain/Julia Mills: Other girls? Smith: This is a dormitory for single women. Would you like tea? I made some. Mills: Yes. Thanks. That's very kind. Smith: Okay. Mills: How many other girls live here? Smith: Uh, there's space for 20 or 30, but I'm not sure how many are here now. Oh. We've thrown some things into the closet for you. There wasn't much time, so I hope they fit. And you'll find some make-up in the bathroom. Mills: Wow. This is so much more than I could have hoped for. Smith: Well, it's hard work to... Once you get settled, you'll be expected to join some of the neighborhood committees and the Nazi Women's League. But first you have to pass the ACT. Mills: What is the ACT? Smith: The Auxiliary Citizenship Test. That gives you the right to stay in the Reich permanently. You must be exhausted after everything you've been through. Mills: I am a l

Escalation [2.4]

Thomas Smith: The ACT is made of three parts: Reading, writing, and civics. Juliana Crain: Okay. I got two out of three. Smith: Straight to civics, then. First question: From where does justice derive? Crain: The Reich. Smith: Yes, but more specifically. Crain: The Führer? Smith: Very good. Justice is a divine right guaranteed for all and determined by the Führer, from whom all justice derives. [tries to drink milk but is visibly shaken] Crain: Thomas? You all right? Smith: Yeah. Yeah, I'm fine. Next question is about American exterminations before the Reich. Crain: Exterminations? Smith: Didn't they ever teach you about the Indians?

Escalation [2.4]

Frank Frink: Why didn't you tell me about it? Sarah Murakami: It's just a patch of dirt, really. About ten hours from here. We were relocated there by the U.S. Army. My family and thousands of other Japanese people. American citizens suddenly considered enemy aliens. My dad said, "Sara, one fine day, they'll win, and they'll open that gate." He meant the Japanese Empire. And one fine day, they did win. Frink: One fine day for you. Murakami: Yeah. They won. But they looked at us, an all they could see was that we left Japan. We weren't Americans, but we weren't Japanese, either. We were...hangyakunin. Frink: Yeah, traitors. So you hate the Americans. You hate the Pons. Who are you fighting for? Murakami: I don't hate anyone. Helen Smith: You know I spent the whole afternoon with Alice. John Smith: Yeah, you said. She must be... devastated. Helen: She is. She's devastated. John, I'm going to ask you a question, and I need for you to tell me the truth. John: Helen. Don't. Helen: [realizes

Duck and Cover [2.5]

Frank Frink: What is this? Gary Connell: It's a memorial... for Karen. There are people here from the state of Washington, Baja, the Salt Lake. Come on. Man: As we gather tonight, we remember that the Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those that are crushed in spirit. Remember too, that we are of good courage and would rather be away from the body and at home with the Lord surrounded by the loved ones who went before us. Of course, the Lord can see Karen, even though we cannot. For precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of his saints. So let us lay this saint to rest. And let us not linger, children, for the wolves will soon be upon our door. Lemuel Washington: You about ready to go, Mr. A? Hawthorne Abendsen: There's a stack inside. Would you bring it out for me, please? Washington: Don't want to get that nice suit all rumpled up, huh? Abendsen: Mm-mm. Washington: [as he picks up a stash of films and puts in the truck] There's a... There's a strong smell inside. Abe

Kintsugi [2.6]

Helen Smith: He's not going, John. I will not allow it. I stop breathing the moment Thomas walks out that front door, and I only start again when he is back home. John Smith: You want to let him go to South America? Helen... Helen: He will be found out, and you know what that means. John: Okay. Sit down. Helen, sit down, please. We are going to let him go. Thomas will fly to Buenos Aires, all right? And from there, he's going to travel to meet the others on his expedition, but he's not going to make the rendezvous because, somewhere in the foothills of the Andes, he's going to be kidnapped by Semites. Helen: You did this. John: Now, this is going to look like, to the rest of the world, a terrorist act on a high-profile target, but Thomas, he's going to be okay. He'll be safe. Helen: In South America? John: He could live for decades, Helen. This way, he's going to be comfortable. He's going to be safe. No one's going to be able to reach him. Helen: How can you be sure? John: Because I w

Land o'Smiles [2.7]

John Smith: Orator Hanley did ask me to say a few words. [clears throat] On the subject of Gerry's professional diligence. Uh...but I decided to go another way. When I sat down to think about what I wanted to say about Gerry Adler, I realized it all came down to one thing. The family. Gerry... Gerry was a family man. And I don't just mean his intense pride in his two fine boys and his beautiful wife. Nor am I talking about the fact that, through his work as a doctor, he... He came to be a part of all of our families. No, What I mean is that a man is only ever as strong as the people around him: the community he serves and the family he is sworn to protect. Whatever strength he has, he draws from them. And for them, he must be prepared to give everything. His life for his blood... Or else... Or else everything he has done has been for nothing. He is nothing. Now, if you'll please stand and join me in singing "Der gute Kamerad." Gen. Hidehisa Onoda, IJA: I require an explanation for what

Loose Lips [2.8]

Joe Blake: Where's the Führer? Reichsminister Martin Heusmann: The Führer... is in a coma. The doctors say it is unlikely he will recover. Until the Party meets and selects his successor, the Führer had ordered that I be named acting chancellor. Trust me, it's not an honor anyone would want, Josef. Blake: I don't understand. Heusmann: You see, this has happened before. Once the Führer was unwell, and for a time it was thought as he would die, so Reichsmarshall Göring declared himself acting chancellor. Blake: I never heard about that. Heusmann: That's because Hitler had Göring shot, along with his entire family. Blake: [sighs] This is different, right? He chose you. Heusmann: Yes. And because I've been chosen, I must do my duty. Blake: Well, why? You're an engineer. Heusmann: An engineer. Exactly, and therefore not a threat, unlike Himmler and the others who would kill for this, and very well might, whether the Führer recovers or not. I will be held directly responsible for everything

Detonation [2.9]

[reads script] My name is Henry Collins. I'm Deputy Minister of Information for the Greater Nazi Reich. You've all been the victims of a lie. For the past few days, you've been told that the Führer is alive and well, on vacation at his retreat in Austria. But the truth... is that Adolf Hitler died last night in Berlin. [staff shouts in the background] The forces of the Reich did not wish you to know this truth - [a Waffen-SS soldier shoots him off-camera]

Detonation [2.9]

Kotomichi: Are you well, Trade Minister? Nobusuke Tagomi: So very tired. But I suspect you know the reason why. You're not from this world, Kotomichi. Kotomichi: Trade Minister... Tagomi: I learned in the other world, defeat of our Empire, the destruction of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, where you were injured. Kotomichi: My family, friends... perished in the bombing. As I lay in the hospital recovering from my burns, I learned to escape the pain... in my body and my mind. By accident, I found myself here. A happier world where my family survived. Tagomi: I believe there's a reason for my traveling, my powers. The armies in the other world made their atomic weapons larger, some a thousand times stronger than the one dropped on Nagasaki. I fear that they will eventually destroy themselves. If General Onoda does not listen to reason, then I must speak to the Crown Prince immediately. Arrange for my trip with great haste. Kotomichi: Trade Minister, travel to Japan is not possible at this time.

Detonation [2.9]

Gen. Hidehisa Onoda, IJA: It is now clear that the Nazi dream is a world in which we no longer exist. To them, like the Jews and the Slavs and the Gypsies, we are something foreign. Thus, the war machine of the Reich...is poised to attack us. The men in this room may not live to see sunrise, but our grandchildren will survive. But, we must never forget, the Emperor is immortal. Tennō Heika. Banzai! Staff: [raises arms with every word] Banzai!! Banzai!! Banzai!!!

Fallout [2.10]

Briefer: [explaining map movements] Chancellor, men, our attack is in three phases. Phase One- U-boat and silo-launched missiles to destroy primary targets. San Diego, San Francisco, Pearl Harbor in the Pacific States. Darwin and Manila, Yokohama, Kamchatka, and Vladivostok in the East. Chancellor Martin Heusmann: How long it will take? Briefer: On your order, 15 minutes from launch. Heusmann: And why not Tokyo, field marshal? Reichsfuhrer-SS Heinrich Himmler: [interjects] If we kill their emperor, it would prolong the conflict. Heusmann: So we spare him? After he murders our Fuehrer? Himmler: The Japanese must see their deity surrender and acknowledge the superiority of our Master Race. Heusmann: [sternly] They will accept that reality without him. [orders briefer as Himmler remains quiet] Destroy Tokyo in Phase One. Briefer: [looks at Himmler who nods at him] Yes, Chancellor. Heusmann: Continue. Briefer: Phase Two - our long-range nuclear bombers destroy secondary targets, including

Fallout [2.10]

Joe Blake: Just think of the innocent lives. Father, you can't. Martin Heusmann: I know the casualties will be high, but that may be necessary. Blake: You can't really believe that. Heusmann: Did you listen to nothing that I've said?? Blake: Of course I did, but you can't build a better world if there's nothing left of it. [Himmler enters the room with a group of SS soldiers] Heusmann: [in German] What is this for? Reichsfuhrer Heinrich Himmler: [in German as the soldiers take Heusmann and Blake] Acting Chancellor Heusmann, you are under arrest for high treason and the murder of our Fuehrer, Adolf Hitler. Blake: [sees John Smith at the door] What the hell's going on? Obergruppenfuhrer John Smith: Your father's a traitor, Joe. Himmler: [in German] Take them away!

Fallout [2.10]

Helen Smith: [upon being given a consent form to Thomas' euthanisation] What is this? Thomas Smith: [to detail head] May I have a moment, please? [comes back to Helen] Helen: Thomas? Thomas: Look, I won't tell them about what you and father said. [embraces her one more time] Be proud of me. Tell Father to be proud. [leaves] Helen: [as Thomas rejoins the health crews and she's held back by the security guards] No. Thom... Thomas. Thomas, stay with me! Stay with me, Thomas! Thomas! [shouting, sobbing] Thomas! Thomas, don't go!

Now More Than Ever, We Care About You [3.1]

Joe Blake: Martin Heusmann was my father. His false beliefs came to infect me. We were both guilty of wrong thinking against the Fuhrer, which gave rise to an unspeakable criminal scheme to assassinate our great leader, our one true father. Wrong thinking against the Fuhrer, against the Party, against the true science of National Socialism. Martin Heusmann was my father. Billy Turner: They can't pull this shit on me last minute. The Fritz Kuhn deal is my deal. I don't need some German chick fresh off the rocket plane to tell me which way's up. [a woman enters the office] Woman: Nicole Dormer. German chick. Turner: [shakes her hand] Sorry. Billy Turner. Minister of Propaganda, and world-class idiot. Welcome to New York, fraulein. First time? Dormer: Hardly. Turner: Miss Dormer... Dormer: Nicole. Turner: Nicole. I think there are some transatlantic crossed wires on this little renaming ceremony. Dormer: [reads sample propaganda posters] "Fascism is freedom"? "Freedom to prosper." "Freedo

Imagine Manchuria [3.2]

Chief Insp Takeshi Kido: I told you, Nakamura. I have many skills. Interrogating the dead is not one of them. Sgt Nakamura: I am not worthy to replace Sergeant Yoshida. Kido: Perhaps not. Nakamura: Before I leave your sight, sir... All the bodies have been examined. No sign of the criminal priest Hagan. Kido: Find Hagan, bring him to me alive, and you will be my sergeant. If you cannot, resign yourself to a career in the colonial backwater in a conflict zone. If you think San Francisco is miserable in the winter, imagine Manchuria. Oberstgruppenfuhrer John Smith: May I call you Thelma? Thelma Harris: Of course. Smith: Good. Tell me, Thelma, you happily married? Harris: I am. Smith: Must be so difficult for you. Marriage is hard work. Harris: Yes, I know. Smith: But especially for a couple like you. With your sorts of secrets. Harris: Sir? I... Smith: You'd just lose your job, right? But your husband, well, he'd lose everything, considering the law. And his... friend? Roger? [sees Harri

Sensô Kôi [3.3]

Oberfuhrer Oliver Diels: Smith has sent you, hasn't he? That vengeful bastard. Joe Blake: You should've stayed loyal to the Reich. Diels: The old regime needed to go. Heydrich and your father, they understood that. Blake: My father confessed his faults. Renounced his conspiracy against the Fuhrer. Diels: Then your father died a traitor. [falls down after a shot to the chest] Blake: My father died a hero. [shoots Diels in the face] Dr Josef Mengele: The Ahnenerbe Institute will remain focused on the sciences, under my purview. Reichsfuehrer Himmler asked that I introduce you to some of our more immediate efforts in advance of his visit. [shows Smith a cart full of the films] The late Fuhrer's entire film archive. At your disposal, with Himmler's compliments. Oberstgruppenfuehrer John Smith: Yes, I watched some of these in Berlin. Surprising number of them are insignificant or counterfeit. Mengele: And many are not so easily explained. Events, outcomes that cannot be dismissed as fake. T

Sensô Kôi [3.3]

Dormer: [narration] But it is among Thomas' own generation, among his fellow classmates, that he is most honored. Female student: [in interview] I loved Thomas. I did. [sniffles] You know, ever since I met him in the second grade, he was always talking about the future. His plans. Everything that he dreamed about doing to make the Reich an even better place. Dormer: Thomas spoke about the future. Did he ever talk about his father? Student: All the time. Thomas idolized him. Dormer: [voiceover] Oberstgruppenfuehrer Smith is one of the American Reich's most decorated soldiers. [footage of Volkshalle rally] And just last fall, Smith was honored by Reichsfuehrer Himmler for saving the Reich from the traitor Heusmann. At this time of Smith's greatest triumph, his son Thomas was walking to his death. [cut to Thomas' tribute at his school] At the ceremony at Thomas Smith's high school, I witnessed an astonishing moment. Reichsmarschall George Lincoln Rockwell: [in tribute speech] A boy with a

Sabra [3.4]

Frank Frink: Take them back with you. I want you to put them up. Mark Sampson: Yeah, there's there's something you should know. Um, people are not only putting up your art. They're copying it. Young people, especially. They're they're making it their own. [shows Frank pictures of graffiti resembling his work] Frink: Ah, this is fantastic. Sampson: Yeah. Frink: All the more reason why we- Sampson: Look, they're arresting people, Frank. Frink: I don't want anyone to get hurt. Sampson: Well, look, in a way, it's out of your hands. Th these sunrises, they'd they don't even belong to you anymore. But this, this is really gonna get the Pons' attention, and not in a good way. Frink: You said people need to see - all this. Sampson: Yeah, and and, one day, the time will be right. And when it is, I promise you that we will wallpaper these sons of bitches like nobody's business. Woman: The Duke gave me this just before he left to fight with the Rebels. Robert Childan: And this is the belt buckle

The New Colossus [3.5]

Dr. Ryan: Why don't we start with something easy? You know, a memory. Could be anything. Helen Smith: Anything? Ryan: Well, anything to do with Thomas. Why don't you sit back, shut your eyes if that helps, and, uh, go back to a moment. Smith: Needn't be anything big. Ryan: Could be something nice and simple. Smith: Uh, they they heard me scream and wail when Thomas was walking to that van. I wept, I pleaded, and all of my neighbors housewives and my friends they heard me beg him to stop. Stop and go back in the house. Don't do this. I'm so so ashamed. Ryan: But any mother would've wept and pleaded. Don't you think? Smith: My son was a hero, I was a weakling. Ryan: No. No, no. It takes strength to grieve openly. Smith: Does it? Ryan: It's the weak who conceal their feelings behind a tough façade. Now, just by me saying this, you won't magically let go of your shame. But, if it makes it any easier, there is nothing more important to the Aryan state than a powerful mother who brings the f

Reichsmarschall George Lincoln Rockwell: Let's start with Dr. Adler, whom you eulogized following his sudden demise from a heart attack. A man who'd just gotten a clean bill of health from his own cardiologist. So what caused Adler's fatal coronary? Oberstgruppenfuehrer John Smith: Undetected coronary blockage, I'd assume. You- you tell me, George. Rockwell: I can't tell you, because Gerry Adler was cremated before a proper postmortem could be performed, per Alice Adler's pleas to anyone who'd listen. And then Alice went suddenly silent, too. She died in a botched burglary, according to the police. But now, [glances at Hoover] ARBI agents have come up with a fascinating conclusion: the burglar - if indeed it was a burglar - who murdered Mrs. Adler was another woman. Meantime, evidence has come to light of Smith's scheme to sneak his ailing son out of the country, and then stage a kidnap plot to spirit Thomas to an Argentinian safe haven. [staring down Smith] It's treason to cover up yo

The New Colossus [3.5]

Joe Blake: Listen, Juliana, to resist is to invite the kind of pain that I went through. And trust me you do not want that. Juliana Crain: And what is it that you think I want? Blake: You want to join me. For a world full of perfection and happiness. Crain: You hardly seem happy. Blake: Just wake up! This is the world we live in. One that can be perfected, but not by your idea of goodness. Make peace with that, and there's a way out of this. Crain: But what does it mean Die Nebenwelt? Blake: It means "the next world," a parallel world. And when we reach it, and the world after that, and the world after that, the Reich will be everywhere. It dwarfs my father's greatest dreams. Now get dressed. Crain: Or what? Hmm? You know, I've watched you kill me so many times. You know what happens next? You take that gun and you put it under your chin, and you blow your own fucking brain - Blake: You're gonna take me to Tagomi. And then you're gonna take me to High Castle.

History Ends [3.6]

Takeshi Kido: You were working with the scientist Wexler, were you not? Nobusuke Tagomi: Yes, a sensitive project. Synthetic oil. Kido: These documents are highly-classified Kempeitai files. Where did you get them? Tagomi: They were brought to me. Is it possible they were in the possession of the Nazi spy at the time of his death? Kido: Possibly, yes. Whoever killed him appears to have prevented an attempt on your life. Tell me, Trade Minister, why would the Nazis want you dead? Tagomi: A provocation. Kido: Revenge. Tagomi: A warning. Kido: So, any number of reasons. Tagomi: Let me ask you something, Chief Inspector. What are you going to do about the traitor in your midst? Frank Frink: I just wanted to redeem myself. Anyway, seemed like helping the Resistance was the only way to make any sense out of what was left of my life. It was a mistake. Ed McCarthy: And you you tried to tell me. Frink: Ed, I killed people. I killed people directly. And I got them killed after, too. McCarthy: Yo

Today marks the beginning of Jahr Null, Year Zero. This will become the beating heart of the Greater Nazi Reich... We will do away with the old. Today, history ends and the future begins!!

Excess Animus [3.7]

Takeshi Kido: Would you like a drink, Trade Minister? [Tagomi sits down] If you want my cooperation, you must provide me with some answers. It is time for the truth. Nobusuke Tagomi: What is it you wish to know? Kido: Trudy Walker. The woman I killed is the same woman I arrested months later. They are not different people, as you suggested, they are the same. Tagomi: They are, indeed, different individuals. Kido: They are not. They have the same physical characteristics, even the same fingerprints. Tagomi: But one is from this world. Kido: The other? Tagomi: The other is not of this world. They are different people, separate lives. Separate histories. Different memories. Kido: How do you know this? Tagomi: I am a traveler. I have visited another world akin to ours, but but different. Kido: You visited another world? Tagomi: Where I got the film of the Bikini Atoll atomic bomb test. The one that dissuaded the Nazis from attacking us. In that world, the Allies won the war. It was their b

Kempeitai Agent: You are Childan Robert? Robert Childan: [bows] Uh, a-actually, it's Robert Childan. Ne- never mind. What can I do for you, most honored Sir? Kempeitai Agent: Chief Inspector Kido has removed the people who have been illegally occupying your shop. Childan: What? Kempeitai Agent: I am instructed to inform you that it is yours to do with as you please once again. Childan: Uh, I-I don't understand. Kempeitai Agent: Chief Inspector Kido rewards you for your service to the Japanese National State. Childan: My s-service to... Yes, of course. [bows] Arigato gozaimashita. [agents leave] John Smith: So what'd you have to tell me, Doctor? Dr Ryan: Well, it's a bit delicate, I'm afraid. Uh Forgive me, sir, but, uh I feel it's my duty to tell you that, uh, your wife has been articulating opinions, uh incompatible with Reich orthodoxy. Smith: I see. Please go on. Ryan: Well, this morning, she expressed a desire, a desire to rethink the Reich's eugenics policies. Uh, I think she feel

Billy Turner: Turner. Nicole Dormer: Billy. Thank God. It's Nicole. Turner: What's the matter? Dormer: Thelma's been arrested. We were having a drink - there was a raid. Turner: A raid? Where the hell were you? Dormer: A club. Turner: What kind of club? Dormer: For women. Turner: Oh, shit. Look, I'll make some calls. Dormer: There were photographers. Turner: Okay, I - I'll find out who. Dormer: Collect the film and, uh, send someone to pick her up. Turner: Billy, you have to go yourself. If it comes out - Dormer: Of course. Of course. Yeah, you're right. Let me see what I can do. Turner: Thank you.

Baku [3.9]

Billy Turner: Jahr Null will be a live TV event broadcast across the Reich and the GNR. Thelma Harris: Where will the Reichsfuhrer and the Reichsmarschall be? Turner: On a VIP boat in the harbor. As close to the action as possible. Harris: And will Nicole Dormer be on the boat? Turner: Yes. Harris: And where will I be? Turner: On the boat, with me. Harris: Will I have an interview with her? Turner: No, she'll be directing, but, uh, I'll make sure to get you a statement. Harris: Of course. I think I have this. Turner: Okay, let's take five before the production meeting. [the other staff leave and Billy closes the door. to Thelma, coldly] Don't ever do that to me again. I had to make a lot of calls to clean up your arrest. Harris: I'm sorry. Turner: Stay away from Nicole. Harris: All right. Robert Childan: Kobayashi-san, what a delightful pleasure. How may I help you today? Mr Kobayashi: I was, uh, wondering if you still had that precious baseball. The one signed by the Murderers' Row. C

Jahr Null [3.10]

Dr Josef Mengele: Three dog tags. The remains of three corpses on the conveyor not four. One, sir, the young woman. Fuhrer Heinrich Himmler: She got through. Mengele: It's a limited success, mein Fuhrer. Himmler: Progress, nonetheless. Mengele: It's more than that, it's a breakthrough. Himmler: Ja. Now, we must accelerate the number of tests and expand their scale. Mengele: Right. Thank you, mein Fuhrer. Himmler: I want 100% success rate. Close enough, at any rate, to begin [excited, points to the tunnel] to march troops through! [everybody applauds] Himmler: John, where is your family? Smith: I have sent them away for a few days, mein Fuhrer. Helen was very tired. Himmler: Sends the wrong message when a Reichsmarschall appears at a public ceremony without his family. [enters deck crowded with officials and Hitler Youth/BDM members. returns Nazi salute and turns to view the Statue of Liberty with Smith] I'm particularly sad that your children are not here to witness this today. You wil

Hexagram 64 [4.1]

Crown Princess: Peace and harmony. That is what Mr. Tagomi sought. We lost him to an act of violence at the very moment we needed him most. His spirit is Japan's spirit. True Japanese spirit. In our drive for empire-building, we have lost sight of this spirit. Violence produces more violence. This is what is happening in San Francisco. I intend to see Tagomi's work completed. General Yamori: [after the Crown Princess' entourage leaves] Someone has been whispering in her ear. Is it you? Admiral Inokuchi: Don't be absurd. Her Highness speaks for herself and with the consent of the palace. Yamori: [In Japanese] You Navy appeasers are more dangerous than the BCR! Inokuchi: [In Japanese] Appeasers? You don't know the battles I've fought for Japan. Yamori: [Back in English] When you speak, I hear surrender. Inokuchi: The Chinese are advancing in Korea and Manchuria. Our resources are spread thin. How long do you think we can hold this territory? Yamori: [In Japanese] As long as I'm alive. [I

Every Door Out... [4.2]

Equiano Hampton: Amen. That's a beautiful sound. Now, I see a lot of familiar faces in this room. Doctors, teachers, artists. And new faces, too. I bring good news. Two days ago, the first shipment of arms arrived from our allies in China. We gonna take this movement to the next stage. Now, I'm not gonna lie. There will be sacrifices. But for us, that price is nothing new. Most everyone in this room has someone got put on a train in the Reich, ain't never came back. For my wife, and my daughter, the train stopped at a camp in Saginaw, Michigan. Man: Onslow, North Carolina. Hampton: Sorry for your loss, brother. Woman with Husband: Shiloh, Pennsylvania. James and Martha Arnold. Hampton: James and Martha. Sorry for your loss, ma'am. Woman with Husband: Thank you.

Elijah: How about right here in San Francisco, Californi

The Box [4.3]

Takeshi Kido: There will be no report. The incident will be forgotten, but it cannot happen again. Toru Kido: I can't forget. I can't forget what I've done. Takeshi: What? What have you done? Toru: What my unit did in Manchuria. To the villagers. Takeshi: It was war. It is in the past. Toru: I can still hear their voices. Takeshi: You did those things for your country. You have no reason to be ashamed. Toru: It is not shame that I feel. Something more than shame. Takeshi: We must look forward now, and draw our strength from the Empire. Toru: The Empire. The Empire is not strong. The Empire is losing. Takeshi: Losing? Toru: In China. The TV says we are winning there, but it is a lie. Takeshi: Enough. Toru: We believe what we're told. We don't ask questions. I was not a soldier. You are not a detective. We are both puppets. Takeshi: I will not be spoken to this way. We are bound to our duty. Toru: Duty? And what of your duty to your family? You left us. [as the elder Kido manhandles him

Happy Trails [4.4]

Hawthorne Abendsen: [narrating] Robert Street has just learned that the American dream is nothing more than an Aryan man's nightmare. And for Robert Street, that nightmare has only just begun. You may not know me, but you might've seen one of my films, those terrifying visions where the Allies won the war. My name is Hawthorne Abendsen, and I am the Man in the High Castle. Takeshi Kido: There is one matter I wanted to discuss with you in private. Outside the office. Capt Iijima: Of course, sir. Kido: Per General Yamori's orders, the Tagomi murder case is now closed. The assassin found, the weapon retrieved, conclusive evidence... and yet, something unfortunate has come to light. We found a partial print on the clip inside the pistol. It is yours. [laughs as Capt Iijima feels uneasy] Do not worry, Captain. I have spoken with General Yamori. He has told me everything. I have redacted the incriminating evidence. I only mention this so that next time, you will be more careful in covering y

Mauvaise Foi [4.5]

Colonel Bolden: I just came from the handover at West Point. Patton shook hands with Goering. It's all settled. First men to sign on will get food and good positions within the Reich. The holdouts will get nothing - or death. We report for duty tomorrow, at 0600. It's up to you. [leaves Nazi swastika armbands] Zina Parks: What happened to Himmler and Goring? Man: And the Nazi leaders? The Allies, they could've put them up against a wall and shot them. Juliana Crain: That's what had always been done when wars ended, but they decided to do something different. They gave them a fair trial. Man: Nazis don't deserve a trial. Crain: Well, they were criminals. Once they put them on the stand, the world could see them for what they were. Their crimes were enormous, but these were small, weak men. They, um, they made excuses. They claimed they didn't know, that they were helpless to stop it. Parks: Tell them what happened to Hitler. Crain: He hid out in a bunker and then shot himself in the hea

All Serious Daring [4.6]

Reichsmarschall John Smith: Gentlemen. I'm sorry to say there's been a misunderstanding here. Um, my son Thomas, he's, uh, reconsidered his decision. Marine gunnery sergeant: Don't worry, Mr. Smith. We'll take good care of your boy. John: No, you won't. Marine gunnery sergeant: Excuse me? John: You think I don't know how this ends? Marine gunnery sergeant: I understand, Mr. Smith. It's only natural to be concerned about your son. John: Yes, it is. Marine gunnery sergeant: I'm sorry, sir. He's 18. He signed the papers. John: [as Thomas and Helen step out the door behind him] I won't let you take him. Thomas Smith: Dad, it's done. I'm going. John: I won't let you. Helen Smith: [embraces Thomas] My boy. I love you. Thomas: Bye. John: Thomas. Is there anything that I could've said yesterday that would have made you change your mind? Thomas: It doesn't matter now. [puts hand on John's shoulder] Be proud of me. John: But I've always been proud of you, Thomas. Thomas: Goodbye. [walks off with

All Serious Daring [4.6]

Yukiko: Your optimism is so American. Robert Childan: What do you mean? Yukiko: When I was 14, a man came to our village to collect the young girls. He told us we'd be nurses in the city and work with the war effort. I was excited. I wanted to go, but my father knew what he meant. They made the girls bainshunfu. Childan: Prostitutes. Yukiko: My father took me to the local authority. Sergeant Tanaka - a man he trusted. Tanaka scared off the man from the city, and I felt safe. And I'm working in the field, and Tanaka came. He took me in the field. My face in the dirt. I told my father what Tanaka had done to me. My father demanded my honor be restored. Childan: Your father killed him? Yukiko: No, Robert. He made me marry him. My father shook Tanaka's hand at the wedding, and I was married with the man for 12 years. The day Tanaka died was the day I was born. Never be ashamed of eating mice. We're survivors. We will outlive these men. All their honor, all their ribbons and medals are ther

All Serious Daring [4.6]

Chief Inspector Kido: This file holds the evidence that Captain Iijima was the man who shot Trade Minister Tagomi. Iijima was working under the orders of General Yamori. Crown Princess: I am shocked, but I am not surprised. This occupation has turned our people against themselves. I understand your son served in Manchuria. Kido: Yes, Your Highness. Crown Princess: I hope for a day we no longer need to send our sons to war. I will see that this information is delivered to the Emperor himself. There will be consequences. Chief Inspector, I know where your political sympathies lie. Kido: My loyalties will always lie with the Emperor. Crown Princess: This must not have been easy. Kido: It was my duty. Nothing more.

No Masters but Ourselves [4.7]

Bell Mallory: You don't have to do this. You can leave right now. Door's wide open. You will not be judged. [to young girl] Set the timer for 25 minutes. Enough time for you to get clear without anyone finding the parcel. [girls hum accordingly] Some of you will be captured. I know you know what that means. Most we can promise is to fight every day for your release. [to man preparing shoeboxes] That's some beautiful shoes you just cobbled together. Your families will be cared for. We don't forget what our soldiers have given to the struggle. We do this because we want the life our people have never had before. Gabriela: Now, you have been married to Reichsmarschall John Smith for - Helen Smith: Twenty years. And how the time has flown. Gabriela: So, what is your secret to a happy marriage? How do you manage to keep the fire burning? Smith: I can answer that in one word. A word that we can use on Reich TV? Gabriela: I think we can use it. Smith: Yes. Honesty. That, to me, is the foundat

I look around at all your young faces. Well, some not so young anymore. So many young men have come through this department. Not all of them will be going home to Japan today. [pauses, removing his glasses] I was a hard boss. I know. I demanded everything of my men. I rarely gave praise. There were young men who died at my command trying to please me. And even as they died in my arms, I offered no kind word. So, I will say it now. You make me proud. Each one of you. [offers toast and bows] Okuro! [they all drink and Kido dons his glasses] Now... go to the docks and sail back home. Your families miss you terribly. Do not keep them waiting.

Hitler has Only got One Ball [4.8]

Reichsmarschall John Smith: I'm sorry this happened, Abendsen. Hawthorne Abendsen: You're the reason it happened, John. She knew there was no other way to escape a life sentence. Smith: It didn't have to be a life sentence. If you just cooperated, you could've had your freedom. Abendsen: What the hell do you know about freedom? Smith: Come on. Abendsen: What's it gonna take to kill me, John? What do I have to do? Smith: Oh, I'm not gonna let you die. Abendsen: Yeah. We'll see about that. You keep coming to me for answers, well, here's the last answer you're ever getting from me: you're cursed, John Smith, you're damned. You fucked with the Fates- and they don't like that. You'll never know peace, John. [as Smith leaves] You'll wander forever between the worlds- lost! LOST!

Hitler has Only got One Ball [4.8]

Bell Mallory: Who are you? Man: My name is Okami. Mallory: The BCR has claimed this place in the name of the people of San Francisco. You'd do well to be on the next ship out of here. Okami: [nurses cigarette, but puts it down] We're not going anywhere. Mallory: "We"? Okami: The services we provide are always in demand. No matter who occupies the throne. Elijah: Gokudo. Yakuza. Mallory: You have no place in San Francisco anymore. Okami: You're going to need us. To restore electricity. Water. The oil pipeline. [calmly stands up] It's one thing to overthrow a government. It's another thing to be the government. Mallory: We've come this far. We don't need you. Okami: [walks to the door but politely bows to Mallory as everybody has their guns aimed at him. takes one last look] You know how to find us. [leaves] Bill Whitcroft: [turns off tape] There's more, John. Your housekeeper, your wife's friends, your old neighbors. If you had a dog, he would be informing on you. I don't have to tell y

ETV Announcer: [in Japanese] Soon, the last ship leaves for Japan and with it the life we have made here. This concludes the final broadcast of Empire TV San Francisco. Farewell. Long live the Emperor! [Cut to Rising Sun flag and Kimigayo as background music.] Kido: [tries to sing along] Continue for a thousand, eight thousand generations, until the pebbles... [simply listens until the end] Toru Kido: Okudaira was a good trade for Yanaihara. Takeshi Kido: Okudaira? Toru: Aren't you going to eat your manju? Takeshi: You can have it. Toru: Coach Egawa says he may move me to shortstop next season. Takeshi: Shortstop. That is a very important position. Very demanding. You must have impressed Coach Egawa. Toru: [watches match] Ground ball to second. Takeshi: Out at first. Toru: Someday, I want to grow up and play shortstop for the Yomiuri Giants. Takeshi: Do not let your imagination run away with you. Toru: Of course. Takeshi: You will serve in the Army. Toru: [glumly] I'm sorry, Father. Ta

For Want of a Nail [4.9]

SS Oberstgruppenfuhrer Adolf Eichmann: [in German, details animation in map] The conquest of the North American West will unfold in stages. First, the Luftwaffe will disable critical command-and-control infrastructure and carpet-bomb population centers. San Diego, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Seattle, and so on. Reichsmarschall John Smith: Forgive me, General how much value to the Reich will these cities have if they're reduced to rubble? Eichmann: [in English] The aerial assault will break the will of the population. Next, our Panzer divisions will cross the border from the Neutral Zone in a blitzkrieg strike. Supported by our Wehrmacht battalions, we will have control of the West Coast within a week. Fuhrer Heinrich Himmler: Smith. You are a skeptic? Smith: Invading the West is one thing, [to Himmler, nodding respectfully] Mein Fuhrer. Holding it is another. Eichmann: The BCR are crude savages. They rely on animal instinct. Smith: That's what the Japanese thought. Eichmann: We use dif

Production director: Okay, quiet, everyone. Cameras rolling. We go live in five... four... Announcer: Ladies and gentlemen, the Reichsfuhrer of North America. Reichsfuhrer John Smith: My fellow Americans. The last few days have been difficult for us all. Heinrich Himmler was a father to our people. We mourn his loss. But with his passing comes an opportunity for rebirth and renewal. A change has come to the Western states, and with it, a chance to take our divided land and bring it back together. A great transformation is coming. Soon, we will be one nation again. Jennifer Smith: Amy, go to your room. Amy Smith: You're not my mother, you can't tell me to go to my room. Jennifer: You don't want to hear this. Helen Smith: [ushers Amy] Sweetheart. It's, it's time for bed. Come on, I'll tuck you in in a minute. Jennifer: It was you. You and Daddy. You killed them. Helen: Killed who? Jennifer: The Negroes, the Jews, all those people. What happened to them? Helen: Oh. Jennifer: I need to hea

Takeshi Kido: [tries to talk to Toru but sees Yakuza man in earshot] Tell me, in the gokudo, do I outrank you? Yakuza member: Yes, saiko-komon. Takeshi Kido: Then go away. [man leaves. to Toru] There are things that must be said. Toru Kido: You don't have to- Takeshi: I have failed you as a father. The first duty of a parent is to protect his child. Toru: Stop. Takeshi: Let me finish. I never showed my true affection for you. I have so many regrets. I can only say that you will always be my son. Toru: Come home with me. The invasion will begin soon. Takeshi: There is no going back. I have much to atone for, and I must start here. Toru: [in Japanese] Goodbye, father. [boards ship. As the ship leaves, Toru salutes his father one last time]

Fire from the Gods [4.10]

Helen Smith: This, this portal you're talking about I-I mean, what? John Smith: You've seen it yourself, Helen. You've seen the movies. Well, I've been there. He's alive. Helen: I have had that fantasy so many times, but it's just that, John, it's a fantasy. John: No. Helen: He's not - John: [sits down and clasps her hands] I've seen him. Helen, I've seen our beautiful boy. He's real. He's real as you and me. I want you to - I want you to have the same thing I had, Helen, I want you to see him yourself. Helen: [emotional] Well, of course I want that, but - John: He's not sick, he's healthy, he's strong. He's doing so well. He's - There is a war, and he has enlisted. He is so much like our Thomas. Helen: Uh, but he's-he's not. He's not our Thomas. John: I can see what's gonna happen. Helen, he's gonna die all over again unless we do something. We can save him. Helen: How? John: We can bring him home. Helen: [surprised at the idea] You want to bring this boy here? As what, as a-a prisone

[sees Juliana] There you are. We've seen things... you and me. Other worlds. Other lives. We, we have that in common. It's unbearable. To be able to look through that door and glimpse all the people you could have been. And to know that out of all of them, this is the one you became. [commits suicide]
