[John Smith meets Nobusuke Tagomi at a farmhouse somewhere in the Neutral Zone]
Trade Minister.
Good evening, Reichsmarschall. Thank you for coming. Please, sit. I wish to extend my deepest condolences for the loss of your only son. I, too, have experienced the same.
Thank you. Now on the phone, you mentioned Dr. Wexler and Die Nebenwelt.
Yes. This machine is powerful. Meant to cross the thresholds between worlds.
The Reich won't be held hostage, Trade Minister. Nor will we engage in negotiations based on ill-gotten and half-baked intelligence.
I had hoped to discuss these matters alone, apart from our government. Because we have achieved peace together once before.
What do you mean?
Last year, you presented a film in Berlin. You averted war. I provided that film for Chief Inspector Kido.
I don't know what you're talking about.
It is possible to reach other worlds without the use of technology. The different truths of those worlds are of great value. And of great personal comfort. I received the film from my son. [presents paper] This is a list of 15 German defectors still living in the Pacific States. The Empire has approved the return of them to the Reich. And please, accept this as a gesture of recommitment to our trade agreements. And in return, the Empire ask only that you honor our oil treaties. Thank you for meeting, Reichsmarschall.
I will see that the Fuhrer gets your list.
I believe our two countries have great value for each other in peace.
