Gabriela, Helen Smith and others in “Unfinished Business”

Now, you have been married to Reichsmarschall John Smith for -

Helen Smith

Twenty years. And how the time has flown.

So, what is your secret to a happy marriage? How do you manage to keep the fire burning?

I can answer that in one word. A word that we can use on Reich TV?

I think we can use it.

Yes. Honesty. That, to me, is the foundation of a successful marriage.

Um, hmm... Oh, um, it would be February, '46, just after The Liberation. John was still in the [clears throat] John was in the US Army. Um, we had been posted to Fort Monmouth, and we had just had our son. Thomas was, um, he was just a baby.

It's all right. Take a moment.

No, no, I - I'd like to talk about it. We hadn't eaten in days. I thought that my baby was going to starve in my arms. A man, a Reich colonel, he came to our door. He brought us milk, bread, cheese, meat. It was all airlifted in by the Reich in an act of mercy. And my baby he finally stopped crying.

From that day forward, thanks to that spirit of mercy, there has never again been hunger in the Reich. [audience applauds] And who else was there that night?

Um, it It was Uh, well well, it was just just us, our family.

As it should be?

John, myself and Thomas, and... We put the past behind us.

Thanks, Helen. We would love to have you back on the show again, any time.

Yes, yes. I- I would like that.
