"We must think it over carefully, Miss Meinhardt." "Do we stay here... or do we try to make our way through to Germany?" "." "But we can't just abandon the outpost, that's clear." "Could war come to Africa?" "." "The Congo Act provides that no European war... can become a colonial war." "The English have signed it at least."

"Barely conscious and already paying compliments." "Compliments." "When you've been in the jungle for years... without seeing a white woman... you like every woman you see." "He's right about that." "Achenbach." "We found a letter in your pocket." "Then you know everything." "I must go home." "So must we, But first you must rest." "Besides... we're protected by the Congo Act." "The Congo Act?" "." "You don't know the English very well, Professor." "They don't care about the Act." "Good Lord." "What are you doing here?" "." "I'm sorry, Professor." "I wanted to" " I was a bit curious." " No, you can't come in here." "I used to be a doctor myself." "You were what?" "." "I was a country doctor in Holzhausen near Munich." "I used to have a small practice there."

"What are those odd things between the blood cells?" "." "They're what's ruining Africa, the pathogen for sleeping sickness." "They're called trypanosomes." "You must look at this." "Here and there are my studies and research materials on sleeping sickness." "I've compiled this for the Bayer Works in Leverkusen." " The chemo-therapeutical company?" "." " That's right." "I hope it's sufficient to find a remedy for sleeping sickness." "What's this?" "." "Professor!" "." "I don't know how to thank you, Hofer." "You've taken a load off our shoulders." " It's nothing." " No, it's really appreciated." "actually manage to get this material to Germany" " I hope you'll make it." " I'm half African, I'll make it." "Good-bye." "Good-bye, Professor." "I'll give your regards to Bayer." "My God." "If that man manages to get that material through to Germany... he'll have saved all of my research." "Watch out, Professor!" "." "The English!" " What do you want?" "." " Are you in charge of this outpost?" "." "Yes." "Why are you breaking in?" "." "I'm sorry, sir." "But my orders are to take this outpost and clear it." "Everything." "Don't you know you're committing a crime?" "." "Do you even know what you're destroying in there?" "." "You're setting death free again." "You English will soon see the consequences." " What will you do with us?" "." " You'll be taken into custody." "4 years of work." "All for nothing." " Come with me." " As you wish, Sergeant." "Damn bastard!" "The nearly impossible was achieved... and the research material arrived in Germany." "In the midst of a world war... behind the walls of a giant factory... one of the greatest feats of German science was tackled." "In thousands of experiments, chemists and pharmacists... toiled to find the remedy... that was to save Africa for the civilized world." "Trials with animals infected with the virus produced tentative results." "It took arduous detailed work to exclude various flaws." "With painstaking dedication, scientists searched for the chemical formula." "It was found, improved, discarded... then found again and discarded again." "Finally, after the 205th test series... the definitive structure of Bayer 205 came into being." "From war and sacrifice... after many lives lost, a high blood toll... the German spirit triumphed." "TREATY O F VE RSAI L L ES But then came a fateful turn of events... when out of greed and a hypocritical pretext..." "Germany was seen lacking the moral faculties to administer to the colonies." "A situation truly frilled with tragic irony." "With Bayer 205, Germany had the means to heal Africa... but Africa belonged to others." "What would Germany do?" "." "Continuing Bayer 2 0 5 would be like a gift, I tell you." "A gift to a humanity, whose true face we've just seen." "You may be right from your view, Director, You look at it as a business." "As a doctor, I think that a remedy with such" " I know, I know." " Please let me finish, Director." "This battle against sleeping sickness... is quite simply the salvation of Africa." "It's our humanitarian duty, we can't avoid." "We don't want to be guilty of that, And look bad." "Precisely because the humane world feels a pathological hatred for Germany... we now have to rise above and carry out this epochal mandate." " That's what I call humanity." " I respect your idealism." "Did you consider that we must get England's permission to even enter Africa?" "." "Gentlemen, even into our old Africa." "Professor, perhaps you would like to go to the English ambassador... and beg for such permission." " Yes, I would." " Incorrigible." "What do you think, Councilor?" "." "I can only comment from the political, or foreign policy point of view." "And I think your Bayer 205... would be more beneficial to our standing in the world... than a dozen excellent ambassadors." "Do you agree, Privy Councilor?" "." "As the head of Bayer, it's your decision." "I thank you for your friendly advice, gentlemen." "I've decided... to continue with Bayer 205." "Germany will have colonies again one day." "I believe this, and I will act accordingly." "I commend you on your fine decision." "What needs to be done first?" "." "Apply for a visa from the English embassy." "It will be taken care of, my friend." "I'm sorry I cannot give you a different answer." "Then the English government denies us entry to Africa?" "." "Not at all, Professor." "But you will understand that we must first determine... that your remedy is not poisonous to the human organism." "The Bayer logo is seen as a symbol of trust all over the world." "Certainly, gentlemen." "We are convinced of the worth of your new medication." "So what stands in the way of our entry?" "." "The law." "An English law from 1 783." "1 783?" "." " That's quite some time ago." " How can we provide the desired proof?" "." "There's not one person in Europe with sleeping sickness." " That's why we wish to go to Africa." " I know, gentlemen." "It's a regrettable and awkward situation." "It's a bit more than awkward, Sir Edward." "In a few years, Africa will die out... down to the last man... your Africa." "We Germans have been denied a moral right to colonies... but you invoke a law from 1 783... and would rather let an entire continent perish." "I understand your feelings, Professor." "But politics is not as free as science." "So you are making entry to Africa is dependent... on us curing a patient in Europe using our new medication?" "." "Yes." "In that case, we bid you farewell, Sir Edward." "Gentlemen." "Maybe we can continue our negotiations in a few days." "Evening." "Are you getting the visa, Professor?" "." "No, the English want to see a cured patient first." "But where do we find someone with sleeping sickness here?" "." "Finding or stealing." "I think it's quite simple." "Let's go, Miss Meinhardt." "We'll get the lab ready." "Tomorrow morning at 6:.00, I'll infect myself." "See you then." "Come, Councilor." "Don't block the way, you reactionary fossil." "Shut up." "Indestructible!" "Here, 1 000 for the little ball of joy." "It's fun." "It'll make time pass faster." "Here, buy one for your wife." "It's a good investment." "That'll get you back in her good books." "Don't I know you?" "." "Your children and children's children will have much fun with this." " Aren't you the trapper from Africa?" "." " Yes, sure am." "Are you still with the professor?" "." "How is he?" "." "Fine." "We want to return to Africa." "What?" "." "Africa?" "." "You have to tell me more." "Sorry, I'm in a hurry." "I need to get to the lab." " I'm sadly in no hurry." " Here's my bus." "You want to come for tea?" "." "I'd love to." "Welcome to our world." "Take off your coat and make yourself comfortable." "I'll make some tea." "Feels like home." " May I?" "." " Sure, turn on the light." "On the left." "There's a lamp on the desk." "Do you like our little zoo?" "." "Yes, I'd love to stay and work with you." "Is this where the professor plans to infect himself?" "." "Let's not talk about that anymore." "Tell me about yourself." "Not much to tell." "Say, what's in here?" "." "In there?" "." "Old friends from Africa." "Shall I show you?" "." "Please do." "There they are." "The professor once gave me a lecture about these creatures back in Africa." " And they're infected?" "." " Yes, if you released them in Berlin... you'd have sleeping sickness a whole clinic full." "Actually, I envy you, you and the professor." "It's really not that enviable." "I know, but still you have a mission." "Shouldn't everyone have a mission?" "." "That would be great, it's vital." "You're entirely right." "But the war's been lost." "Come." "Drink your tea." "Forgive me, I'm such a bad hostess." "I didn't ask if you wanted something to eat." "No, thank you." "I'm not hungry." "But I am, if you don't mind." " I'll quickly go get something." " Let me go." "No, women are better at this." "I'll be right back." "Mr. Hofer?" "." "Mr. Hofer, what are you doing?" "." "Nothing." "I'm merely helping the professor with his work." "Good God, Hofer!" "This is insane!" "On the contrary... it's very reasonable." "Sleeping sickness in Berlin!" "Sleeping sickness in Berlin!" "1 04 degrees." " Everything ready?" "." " Yes, Professor." "Prepare the solution." "Yes." "Just don't start crying." "You were there." "You should have prevented it." "I wanted to do it myself." "Now we wait." "Take his temperature every two hours... a blood sample every four hours." "I don't need you anymore." "I'll keep the night watch." "Office of Privy Councilor Wissberg." "Telegram from Berlin from Professor Achenbach?" "." "What does it say?" "." "Third blood sample." "1 1 :00 at night." "No improvement." "Still, gentlemen, I believe in our Bayer 205." "Maybe the fourth sample will be it." "What if the patient dies?" "." "I wash my hands in innocence." "If the experiment works" "And?" "." "Nobody has his own way all of the time... not even in Africa." "Write this." "The fifth blood sample... was taken around 8:00..." " Got that?" "." " Around 8:00, yes." "The result was different from previous ones" "Come in." "Now listen here?" "." "You're doing one silly thing after another." "What are you doing in the consulting room?" "." "You should stay in bed." "Sorry, Professor." "But I wanted to ask about the result of the experiment." "He doesn't have a fever, and the trypanosomes are gone too." "Yes." "Bayer 205 has exceeded all expectations." "The English won't have a choice." "Now we're going to Africa." "Take me with you, Professor." "As a trapper?" "." "No, as your assistant." "Not a bad idea." "We can't turn this offer down, can we, Miss Meinhardt?" "." "You're coming to Africa with us." "After the first recovery of a person with sleeping sickness... the world turned its gaze anew to the black continent." "Unhindered, the disease had spread from the jungles... ravaged the land... and become an epidemic." "In Uganda, at Lake Victoria... of the 300, 000 inhabitants... 200, 000 died from the disease." "In Cameroon, the Nyem tribe was reduced from 1 2, 000 to 609." "In the Belgian Congo, two million dead in two years." "Sleeping sickness had become a veritable plague sent by God." "At this moment, the German expedition purposefully made their way to Africa." "To emphasize its German origin... the new medicine was given the proud name ""Germanin. """ "Rimbo, you're still here?" "." "That's nice." " We stay with you." " Great Rimbo with great professor." " I'm a lucky man." " Have you got yourself a mammy, Rimbo?" "." "Rimbo no mammy." "Rimbo live alone." "Tony, are you happy with your mammy?" "." "Yes, nice and she obeys." "And she always laughs." "Look down there." "That's Fort Elizabeth." "We'll be there soon." "Colonel Crosby is expecting you." " He's the boss there?" "." " Yes, and one who knows what he wants." "I've assigned the Wapunga district to you." "Wapunga?" "." "But you know I need to be at the waterfalls." "I stated my arguments convincingly to the Colonial Office." "I know that." "I've been informed." "Why am I not allowed to the waterfalls?" "." "I'm militarily responsible for your safety." "Do you think the blacks will eat us up?" "." " You will meet resistance." " Might I ask why?" "." "The chief doctor of our outpost can tell you." "Doctor Garner." "The natives don't like white doctors right now." "What have we got to do with that?" "." "You must be aware that we're treating sleeping sickness... using the American drug Tryparsamide." "First" "Second, the American drug... only helps in a few cases." "In other cases, it leads to blindness." "No wonder the blacks aren't happy with white medicine men." "Right." "You got it." "But ours is not unproven." "Our Germanin" "Our Germanin will restore their faith in white doctors." "But at the same time as I introduce Germanin..." "I must also start eradicating the tsetse fly through clearing... which is why I need to be at the waterfalls." "This is the only way I can guarantee lasting success." "Clearing?" "." "But, Professor, what does this have to do with your expertise?" "." "The Colonial Office acknowledged my plans." "Acknowledge this." "Your operation here is limited to purely scientific activity." "Fine." "We'll take the Wapunga district." " Farewell, Colonel Crosby." " Professor." "Great for starters." " Can we start the drums?" "." " Go ahead, Captain." "Give it all you've got." "Start the drums." "After this, no black man will let himself be treated by the Germans." " Here we are." " That's a nice reception." "The German doctors... bring... death." "It will... enter the land." "Outrageous." "Crosby's behind this." " What's this?" "." " The answer to the drums." "Wapunga has fallen for the lie." "We should talk to him." " Do you want to send for him?" "." " Send for him." "That's a good one." " I'll go see him myself." " Fine." "Give it a shot." "Stop." "No further." "Wapunga?" "." "The king?" "." "Take me to him." " Wapunga will come soon." " Thank you." " You speak German?" "." " I was a German soldier." "Oh, yes, this used to be our protectorate." " I'm a general now." " What?" "." "And war minister for Wapunga." "General?" "." "War minister?" "." "What a career." "Congratulations!" "Does Wapunga speak German too?" "." "Yes, but not as well as me." " As you." " No, as me." " Captain Evans, you're here too?" "." " For your protection, Mr. Hofer." "Good." "Then nothing can happen to me." "Speak." "Great Wapunga." "I am your friend." "The medicine man who came with me wants to be your friend too." "We will cure your sick and won't steal the light from their eyes." "My general will explain to the people." "You must leave my land immediately." "Now." " Is this your final word?" "." " Yes." "Leave." "My compliments, Captain Evans." "You can be proud of yourself." " I don't know what you mean." " No matter." "I do." "Bye." " The Englishman not good." " You catch on fast, Tony." "Tony... we won't reach camp tonight... so we'll rest here." "Is there food and drink?" "." "Good food and drink, yes." "Okay." "Your king can't sleep, eh?" "." "Well, if that's how it is... we'll gladly keep him company." "What are you up to?" "." "First, you chase us away and now this." "What do you want from me?" "." "Not so loud." "I can't talk freely when Englishman can hear." "I see." "Then let's talk." "We know German medicine men from before." "Very good." "My brother was a paramedic with the Germans, very good." "That's excellent." "So we can start our work now." "That's why I had you called." "I'll give you this many sick." "Englishman must not know." "Great Wapunga, your people will thank you for this someday." "My warriors will accompany you." "Come." "Once you understand what Germanin is... and how it can put you back on your feet..." "I see you all coming here, voluntarily, from everywhere." "I see long treks of you people coming here." "Then Germanin will be known as a magic word." "Don't be afraid." "I will cure you." "Have you heard?" "." "All of Africa is running to your German competition." " Why not?" "." "We'll benefit from it." " That's what you think." "If you had as much political sense in your head as I've got in my little finger... you'd pack your bags and head back to London." " We've become redundant." " Why don't you go, Colonel?" "." "Because the Empire was built on cannons, not doctors." "Calls himself professor, engaging in colonial politics." "Outrageous." " Maybe he has a secret military plan." " Nonsense." "Just typical of the Germans." "I won't let England be silenced in my own district." "I won't let them take control from me." "If those Germanin quacks think they can fool me..." "I'll put an end to all this." "Come along, Evans." "Now go back to your villages." "You are healthy." "But watch the small tsetse fly, it brings death." " How many today?" "." " That's nice, isn't it?" "." "I'm happy too." "362." " Are you happy too, Professor?" "." " Well... as long as we can't conquer the fly, it's only half the battle." "Look there." "For every 50 we cure, 300 more come in." "This way, we won't exterminate sleeping sickness." "Never." "Maybe the English want it this way." "Unfortunately, you could be right." "I need permission to start clearing at the waterfalls." "I have to destroy the breeding ground of the fly." "Otherwise, we'll have failed." "Let's get back to work." "Nice to drop by." "I think he's got a house over there in a tree." "He's a nice chimp." " What should we call him?" "." " Call him Tetje." " How are you, Tetje?" "." " Are you a good boy?" "." "You want to" "You, listen up." "You come visit us, watch us working... then you go back to the jungle and open your own practice." "Yes, like yours in Holzhausen." " Are these the ones I selected?" "." " Yes, Professor. 300." "What are you doing there?" "." "He's stealing our stuff." " That won't do." " You won't catch him." "Look at that speed!" "I'll get you, you brat." "One to nothing for Tetje." "I'll get him." "They're coming!" "" " The cured!" "They're coming!" "" " The cured!" "So it's come to this." "Catch him." "Where did you get these bits of uniform?" "." "Did the German professor give them to you?" "." "No, from before." "From before?" "." "You think it's time to dig up these old things now?" "." "You're a British subject." "Do you know that?" "." "Then you should know you can't have items from a German uniform." "Whip him." "Are you bored, Tetje?" "." "I can't play with you." "The professor has to work." "Such is life, Tetje." "Professor Achenbach." " I have to speak with you." " At your service." "Would you please explain this?" "." "Your outpost is being closed down." " And might I ask why?" "." " You exceeded your authority." " That's news to me." " You engaged in German propaganda." "You're mistaken, Colonel." "Not with a single word." "I know what's going on." "I'm sorry, but Germanin just is a German cure." "I didn't come here to listen to your nitpicking." "I order you to leave Africa." "And I ask you... to sign this permit." "Clearing?" "." "The fight against the tsetse fly?" "." "You want to go to the waterfalls?" "." "I thought you were a scientist." "You will sign it." "It would be a crime against humanity didn't." "Say, what planet are you from?" "." "From a planet... where there are supposed to be gentlemen." "Very friendly." "You refuse to call off your activities here?" "." "I'll decide when I'm done here." "I see." "We'll see about that." " Captain Evans!" " Colonel?" "." "Seize all supplies of Germanin." " Destroy them." " Yes, sir." "Ready!" "March!" "I hope you won't have to pay for this in your life." "No worries." "I'll gladly pay that price." "Now smash it all." "Get ready." "March." "What's going on there?" "." "Hofer, that's our Germanin." "It's our entire supply." "Where's the professor?" "." "Professor, what happened?" "." "We're being expelled." " Why?" "." " That's a good question." "Colonel Crosby has the power." "We might as well pack up." " We should beat him to death." " Not a bad idea but... it won't help." "Colonel Crosby isn't the only one." "England and the Empire are backing him up." "Yes." "And who's backing us up?" "." " Nothing and no one." " Right." "We must be clear about that." "And don't think our November Republic will lift a finger." "What a miserable outcome." "Chin up, Miss Meinhardt." "We must organize our trip home." "Taking down the camp will take 1 0 days... so we can make it to the coast before the rainy season." "I'll go to Lagos and book three passages." "And the remaining Germanin?" "." "Take it to the freighter." "I can't get it into my head." "Do we have to leave?" "." "Yes." "I'll have to discharge our patients now." "You too have to leave." "The English want it that way." " What's going on here?" "." " People sick, all broken." " Sleeping sickness?" "." " Very bad, many blind." "Strange." "And they won't let us do a thing." "Let's go." "I'll have them shot, if the noise doesn't stop." "You have a fever, Colonel." "A very high fever." "That's my problem." "You won't blind me." "Give it up." "I'm not the one blinding you" "Leave me alone." "I've never been sick, never." "You'd like that." "I'm warning you." "The new epidemic is much worse than any of the previous ones." "You can't scare me." "This is my drug of choice." "Whiskey." "Anna?" "." "Anna?" "." " You called, Professor?" "." " Yes, I had to." "Look at this." "What do you think?" "." "Very lively trypanosomes." "Sleeping sickness." " Patient number?" "." " Well..." "I don't have a number." "Let's just call it ""File Achenbach."" "No." "The devil knows how that tsetse fly got to me." "Professor, we're out of Germanin." "It's not critical yet." "Not yet." "But the diagnosis is serious." "We have to get to Lagos now." "Our Germanin is there." "We have to stay calm, Anna." "Let's be reasonable." "You're right, Professor." "I'll make sure we get away as soon as possible." "Rimbo!" "Rimbo!" "Yes, Mama Doctor." " Our professor is sick." " He is sick?" "." "We have to leave as soon as possible." "Tell the people." "Yes, ma'am." "The professor is sick!" "Fast, fast, fast!" "Can someone stop... that Negro tootling?" "." " Right away." " Don't be stupid, Crosby." "A fever of 1 06, puts all kidding aside." "All we have is the Tryparsamide." "Go away!" "Go away." "What do you want with me?" "." "I don't want to go to your cemetery." "I don't want to." "You're delirious, Colonel." "Surely, you don't want to die." "Good bye then, Tetje." "You've always been a good friend to me." "It would have been boring without you." "The professor thanks you, Tetje." "Hey, you." "Leave that alone." "He's stolen something again." "This time, I'll get it back." "Give that to me." "Where is your loot?" "." "Germanin." "Tetje, you silly monkey." "You smart monkey." "You don't know how great you are." "Professor." "Germanin." "No." "Anna, show me." "It's a miracle." " A real miracle." " Tetje must have stolen it." "I found it in his tree." "Tetje." "Now Tetje's saving my life." "Prepare the solution right away." "Germanin." "Help me." "I have the sleeping sickness." "Here it is." "You had the Germanin destroyed." "You had the Germanin destroyed." "Colonel... you recently forgot to sign this permit." "Thank you." "Roll up your sleeve." "Bring it here, Anna." "Bring it here." "Clearing approved..." "Hofer off to waterfalls with Germanin..." "Achenbach has sleeping sickness..." "Bye, now it's off to the waterfalls." "That's how it is." "And you, Tetje, you return to your tree." "And get married, I tell you." "Find a wife, Tetje." " If I had known" " Please, leave it." "I will not stand in your way anymore." "Big rain." "Big rain, Professor." "Big rain." "Nothing doing now." "No one can make it through that rain." "Not even Hofer." "Tony, give me the crate." "Open it." "You all go off to the waterfalls." "Come, Tony." "We can't let the professor die." "Tony!" "Anna." "I want to get up." "A man shouldn't die in bed." "I'd like one other thing." "Open the tarpaulin." "Beautiful." "Give me your hand." "It was a great time, wasn't it?" "." "You surely thought sometimes..." ""That professor with his preparations... injections and trypanosomes... is that his whole life?"" "You thought that, didn't you?" "." "I thought it too when I watched you, so much alive." "I can tell you now." "Don't cry." "If the rain is over now... and Hofer returns... then go-- go to the waterfalls... and destroy the tsetse fly." "Clearing, clearing, clearing." "Then you'll succeed." "The rain." "Do you hear?" "." "This cursed... beloved..." "Africa."
