SCENE 2
South Tyrol. In front of a bridge. An automobile is being stopped. The driver shows his pass.
MILITIA MAN: Greetings gentlemen. May I ask –
GRUMBLER: At last, a friendly person. The others are so wound up they point their rifles at you immediately.
MILITIA MAN: Yes, it’s because of a Russian automobile carrying gold, well.
GRUMBLER: But if a motor-car is going to stop it cannot do so in a second. It rolls on a few meters, then the most terrible accident could occur.
MILITIA MAN [Enraged]: Yes! If one doesn’t halt, we shoot everything to bits, into smithereens, everything!
[The car rolls on further]
