A keeper opens the door.
He says: "Dinnertime."
He pushes a carriage into the room, puts a plastic plate on the table next to the bed.
Armin says: "How old are you?"
The keeper says: "Twenty-one, why do you ask?"
"Twenty-one and already a keeper? How does it come?"
"I'm going to be examined one last time. You're right, I don't work as a keeper so long."
"The more I beg your pardon then."
Armin takes the gun and directs it on the keeper.
He says: "Your make-up runs down, you are so pale."
He shoots. The keeper falls on the floor and crooks.
Armin says: "Do you feel it now, life, can you feel it? It creeps out of you; do you learn to estimate it now? Help! Help!"
Two other keepers come and look into the cell.
One says: "What is it?"
Armin says: "This boy here needs medical help, I shot him. I want one of you to look after him, who starts to live I hope. And the other one accompanies me as a hostage."
Armin takes one of them and leaves the others.
The keeper says: "You have no chance, no, in spite of the gun in my back."
Armin says: "I know, but I never had a chance. Let me tell you that I can't see any worth in your existence."
They come to the first door.
Armin says: "Open it immediately or I'll end the existence of this human too."
Sirens begin to howl. The door stays closed. Armin directs the gun on the head of the keeper.
Armin says: "Is this man as worthless to you as he is to me?"
The door stays closed. Armin shoots and the keeper falls.
He says: "Is it better now? I am not."
A police officer appears behind the door.
He says: "But it's not worse, isn't it Armin?"
Armin says: "Let me out and save your life."
"Armin it's all over. Give me the gun, Armin and don't be foolish any longer."
"Tell me, do you get your maxims from TV?"
A female police officer approaches in his back.
Armin says: "Please. Stop. I really do not like to kill any more. But I don't let you kill me."
The female officer says: "Armin, nobody wants to kill you. "
"But you do, you do."
The lecturer drives a tank over the police officer, through the door.
He says: "Armin, get in."
Armin looks at him and says: "You?"
"I talked to Katja, I can understand you a little bit, but enough now: I want to help you."
"I can't believe that."
"But it's true. I came to make your life possible."
"This life sounds so hollow in your words."
"I'm sorry, I only know it a short time."
"I like to trust you. But where is Vanelin?"
"If you mean Katja, she knows nothing."
"She knows that I want to break free."
The female police officer says: "Armin! Hands up! Immediately! I will shoot!"
Armin climbs up to the lecturer. The officer shoots. He tries harder. She shoots again. Armin falls on the ground. The gun lies beneath him. He smiles. Blood runs from his mouth. The police overcome the lecturer.
