Táltos...
Who is táltos?
DESIRE
You say he's been in there the whole night?
Yeah.
Just in there.
Thank you.
So, has he said anything?
Inspector?
What?
Does he not care that he's to be executed?
Yes.
Let's go. He's not gonna talk.
And you should sleep.
Inspector.
Time to go.
Fleur...
Last night... What was that?
You weren't yourself.
I can't remember anything.
What happened?
No.
Fleur...
Who is táltos?
You kept screaming that name last night.
Over and over..
Where were you before you came here last night?
I don't know any more.
You must try to remember.
Cocaine.
Here. It's stimulative.
I was in the coach...
with Viktor and Sophia.
Go on, where did you travel to?
To see the crown prince. To his palace...
A private audience. Only me and him.
What for?
I was supposed to be telling him his future.
And then...
He... he tried to...
I think Sophia knew about it.
They knew what he wanted to do to me.
Hold me. Hold me tight.
I'm scared.
Do you like me?
Yes, yes, yes.
Shh.
Fleur.
Who is táltos?
Do you like my smell?
Yes.
Feel me.
Look at my breasts.
- Touch them. - Your temperature, Fleur...
Stop. Stop. This won't help you..
I shouldn't have done that. I shouldn't!
We shouldn't have done that.
- I can't help you like that. - How will you try to help me then?
Huh?
There are several souls inside of you.
"Two souls, alas, are dwelling in my breast."
This other one, it does you no good.
I'll hypnotise you, to isolate it and drive it out for good.
- But I don't want that. - I know.
But it will help you.
Follow me.
Keep looking into my eyes.
Hear my voice.
And feel the tapping.
Everything else will disappear.
Close your eyes as you breathe in and open them again as you breathe out.
In.
Out.
In.
Out.
In.
Out.
Feel the weight of your limbs.
Let yourself fall...
Where are you now?
I'm in my room.
Sophia is standing in front of me.
She's touching my hands.
She's speaking.
What is she saying?
I can't hear her.
Yes...
Yes, you can.
No matter what happens, you'll let it happen
and when you wake up tomorrow, you won't remember it.
I'm here.
Fleur?
What's happening?
You are turning into a táltos.
Fleur.
What's happening?
I'm not myself.
You are turning into a táltos.
I'll count from three to one. On one, you'll wake up.
Three.
Two.
One.
Finished, have you, Doctor?
No, not you. Not you. I want Fleur to speak to me, not you.
Fleur, now!
Sleep.
I'm back, Doctor.
- Wait here, I'll see where the doctor is. - I shall look with you.
- Doctor? - Shh!
Doctor?
Get out!
Jesus and Mary... Wait there!
You must go. Just leave.
But I don't know where to go.
Then you must stay in here.
Please wait. Please.
Wait here.
Fleur! Wait here!
Please just stay in here!
What can I do for you?
Do for me, dear brother-in-law?
Actually, I'm only here to pay what I owe.
On second thoughts, I'll put off that obligation a little bit longer.
I wonder if I should I tell my sister about this little tête-à-tête?
I mean... I probably should tell her anyway.
You had better not.
Don't you ever speak about things you don't know anything about.
She's my sister. I'll do everything I can to prevent her from marrying you.
Come, you should introduce me to your new girlfriend.
That way, I'll know what to call her in my letter to my sister.
- I'm warning you. - You're warning me?
- Yes. - What about?
- I'm warning you. - What about?
What do you want to warn me about?
You have no idea what you're talking about!
You have no idea!
COCAINE
- I was giving her medical attention! - Medical attention?
What were you trying to treat?
Get out of my apartment!
Get out!
What's all this fuss about, gentlemen?
I have a headache, and now I have to stop you two fighting each other?
You're like children, the pair of you! Behave like men!
For God's sake!
What is it?
Fleur?
- Fleur? - Fine.
I shall come back when everyone has finally calmed down.
Miss, are you all right?
Just leave her alone.
Come on, you'll catch something.
Táltos...
Look, take one corner, then the second corner
and fold.
Good!
One, and then the other.
Well done!
Come on!
Come on.
Not like that.
Yes, exactly.
You're doing it really well!
One. Two.
Three! Your turn!
Quickly, come on!
What's the matter?
Lock the door behind me.
- Do it now! - Mummy.
Mummy, quick.
Stop it!
Dr. Freud, what about the rent you owe me?
I'm afraid I don't have it.
Then you must get it, yes.
Herr Laurenz, you're endangering somebody's life.
One more day, then, or I'll have you evicted this weekend.
Shalom, Dr. Freud.
Chow-Chow.
Your Majesty,
a huge one.
Make a mistake.
Colonel Caspari witnessed
the Hungarian nationalist forces and anarchists secretly meeting.
- Colonel. - On the 27th of last month, it was.
Conspirators gathered in the Szápárys' palace
on the outskirts of Vienna.
In addition to representatives of the Hungarian military,
there were also disgraced aristocrats whose land had been decimated
since the union with Austria in attendance.
What was being discussed?
Nothing too serious, Your Majesty.
The few ringleaders who were trying to call for a violent attack
were not listened to.
In addition, the number of troops they have amassed is of no concern to us.
So nothing new?
Hungary feels disadvantaged.
And that shows no sign of changing.
Rudolf?
- What's wrong? Is he sleeping? - No.
Forgive me, Your Majesty.
What thinks he about the gathering?
We should invite them.
Pardon?
You said that they gathered at the Szápárys' palace?
Yes, Your Highness.
Viktor and Sophia Szápáry.
But they were involuntary hosts.
Count Szendrey wanted to recruit them.
What opinion did they adopt?
The Szápárys are supporters of the empire and the double monarchy.
They were treated with hostility by their countrymen for taking that stance.
- Why does he want to know that? - I want them to become our friends.
The upcoming Peoples' Ball would be the perfect opportunity
to welcome them into our ranks.
Keep your friends close, but keep your enemies closer.
Making friends of the Szápárys means they would become our allies.
Inviting them would send the right signal.
Szápáry?
If I remember correctly, Viktor's uncle was Ladislaus Szápáry,
one of the ringleaders of the Hungarian Revolt of '48.
It's in their blood.
I would advise against this approach.
Stay seated.
Gentlemen, please excuse the friendly attitude
towards the Hungarians my son has.
He still believes there's a way to make peace between us.
- What's so wrong about that vision... - How dare you interrupt!
Nobody here is interested in your liberal talk.
Thank you. That is all.
Rudolf!
Your Imperial Highness!
Imperial Highness, can you hear me?
Somebody call the court physician. We need a doctor!
The crown prince needs a doctor!
Fleur?
No.
Where were you?
We have spent many hours waiting.
Fleur?
What has happened?
You are turning into a táltos.
Who is Fleur to you?
We are a family.
All of us.
In a family, you can rely on each other's trust.
Is that right?
Mummy?
Daddy?
We were made to lie to her.
It was too important.
You sacrificed her.
You knew what he wanted.
I can feel her hatred.
She hates you even more than me.
Get out of here.
You're trembling.
Stop this. You're making us scared.
We want Fleur to speak with us, not you.
Fleur is gone.
Only I am left.
I'm hungry.
Another special party tonight? Will we have guests?
That was the plan, but I'm going to cancel.
I dare you to!
Get out. Get out! Get out!
Get out.
It has worked just as we said.
The prince. The crown prince himself.
But what do we do with her?
She's unpredictable.
We cannot allow her to endanger us.
Our Fleur has gone away.
Our Fleur has already died.
Viktor, how many people are coming here tonight?
- Twelve. - Twelve more, they have their worth.
She wants to do it. She enjoys doing it.
And after...
Do you have it?
This is the first and last time I'll help you this way.
You spoke of a dissociation.
A serious one.
All of the symptoms were there.
Her posture was different.
Her muscle tone, even the sound of her voice.
This morning, she couldn't remember anything at all.
She spent the night with you, then?
It was late and she unable to go home.
What happened?
- Nothing. - You slept with Fleur that night.
You're not supposed to let yourself be touched by your female patients,
let alone allow them to seduce you!
And how is that supposed to work? Is there any other way to do this?
When I'm dealing closely with them, when I'm intimate with them,
must I not get involved with them?
It's the process, I'm afraid, commonly known as empathy.
A successful treatment is only possible if the doctor himself is healthy.
- Are you healthy, Siggi? - Yes.
She needs my help, and I am taking on that responsibility.
I'm not afraid as you were with Bertha Pappenheim.
Don't make the same mistake I made.
Why? Why not?
Why aren't I allowed to make mistakes?
How else should I make progress?
You must offer the patient help without becoming a patient yourself, Doctor.
You asked me for another loan.
Here. For rent, food and you should also take your suit to the tailor again.
And you must put something aside for your wedding.
Think of Martha, Sigmund.
Why do I have the feeling this time your loan is a little more complicated?
It's not a loan. It's a gift.
A gift?
But Fleur must be given up.
Yes.
- Where are the children? - With the neighbours.
- Good morning. - Hello.
- Nobody heard anything? - No, I think not.
As far as I'm aware.
Inspector! Inspector.
It's me.
It's me, Inspector.
It's me.
Everything's fine.
It's fine.
Fanny's already explained.
Arrest me, Poschacher.
Janecek was right. I'm a danger to others.
They broke in. You didn't do anything wrong.
And who sent them?
Von Lichtenberg, you mean?
You haven't done anything wrong.
But you won't be able to get out of this so easily.
I'm worried about you, Inspector.
You're one of the good men.
You're just going through a difficult time at the moment.
But please don't forget you have a family at home.
Alfred...
Your son was my heart.
My everything.
And now he's gone.
But we have children, so we must stick together.
We can do it.
It'll be all right.
What do we do with them?
If it was the general who sent them, he definitely can't find out about this.
Otherwise, he'll do everything in his power to put you into prison
or make you an outlaw.
We dismember them.
Seems like we have to.
They were obviously from Heinz's gang.
We should pay him a little visit.
Mama?
Your friends, the Szápárys,
you want to invite them to the ball.
That is your greatest wish.
Your father doesn't want to fulfil it.
- Are you surprised? - No.
I'm surprised that you are willing to accept that.
They're your friends. It's your wish.
- It's your goal. - He's the Kaiser.
And you're the crown prince.
The future.
Do it yourself. Invite them.
Do as you please.
Thank you, Mama.

FABLES AND LEGENDS
THE BIRTH OF TÁLTOS
"The child came into this world veiled.
The parents recognized the sign and they were afraid.
They knew that a táltos had been born to them,
a god given as a gift to humanity only once every 30 winters.
A táltos speaks with the dead and makes slaves of all living beings."
Janet.
"The hysteric state of mind."
Do you like me?
Yes, yes, yes.
Fleur?
Who is táltos?
Silence!
Can you hear me? Please stop playing.
It is very, very late.
After eleven is quiet time.
Not only in Vienna, but everywhere in the world.
Who's walking about like this in the middle of the night?
My dear doctor, what are you doing out here at such a late hour?
Lenore, do you know my neighbour?
He plays and plays uninterrupted this grotesque melody.
Really, Doctor? Nobody lives there any more.
Not for a long time now, before you were even here.
What are you talking about? I just heard somebody playing the piano.
- Of course somebody lives there. - Good, then let's have a look.
Yes, good, let's have a look.
That's what I said, let's have a look.
What is it? Come on.
Or are you afraid now?
So...
Well, come on in then, Doctor.
What an awful mess in here.
I could've sworn I heard somebody playing.
The young man who used to live here was a musician.
A fire at the Ringtheater nearly took his life,
and five of his friends didn't survive.
He couldn't cope with the guilt.
- He killed himself. - What?
Tell me more. What do you know about him?
Nothing. It was before my time.
But I still see the housekeeper now and then. I could ask her.
Please.
Right away.
Did your visitor from earlier this morning leave your head in a spin?
- How dare you ask me that? - How dare you?
Haven't you promised another woman your hand in marriage?
It's none of my business. I'm just saying.
Listen, Doctor, you're still young.
These things will happen. Don't you worry.
But happiness is a bird, you know?
And it can fly away.
And the heart is a cage, Doctor.
