:19:03
But the hearts of all the victims
were ruptured.
:19:07
In fact, they had burst.
:19:13
Hence the local superstition
of the murdering ghost.
:19:17
Need I add that it is always alluded to
as Frankenstein?
:19:22
Now it's rumoured that you,
like your father, are a scientist.
:19:25
The villagers have seen
the strange instruments that preceded you.
:19:28
That's why I've come to warn you.
:19:31
Inspector Krogh,
I should indeed seem ungrateful...
:19:34
if I were not to thank you
for your interest in my welfare.
:19:37
But I can assure you
I am not engaged in any black magic...
:19:40
nor in the creation of monsters,
however the villagers may think.
:19:44
Nevertheless, Herr Baron,
I stand ready when you need help.
:19:48
I shall not need it.
:19:50
When you need help, you have
but to ring the alarm bell in the tower...
:19:54
and I shall hear it wherever I may be
and hasten to your assistance.
:19:58
- Good night, Herr Baron.
- Good night and thank you, Inspector.
:20:04
BARON: Darling, this is Inspector Krogh
of the police.
:20:06
ELSA: How do you do?
KROGH: Madam.
:20:09
BARON: He called to assure us
that he's at our service.
:20:12
It's very good of you, Inspector.
:20:13
Perhaps you'll honour us one night soon
at dinner.
:20:16
Madam, I...
:20:18
I shall be honoured, madam.
:20:24
Wasn't he odd?
:20:26
BARON: Yes. He said if the villagers
bothered us, he'd take a hand.
:20:30
ELSA: We seem to be
rather undesirable characters.
:20:32
BARON: They'll change their attitude
when they get to know us a little better.
:20:36
[Thunder clapping]
:20:38
ELSA: What a dreadful storm.
What awful lightning!
:20:43
BARON: It's magnificent.
:20:45
Nothing in nature is terrifying
when one understands it.
:20:50
BARON: Think of it, darling.
:20:51
My father drew that very lightning
from heaven and forced it to his own will...
:20:55
to bring life to a being
that he created with his own hands.
