How did it happen?
-lt happened one Sunday last fall.
:56:06
At the train station.
-You were taking a trip?
:56:09
There are foreign men at the station
who go there to earn a bit of money.
:56:15
Suddenly l ran into Peter Egermann.
He'd bought some foreign papers...
:56:20
at the international newsstand.
We had a cup...
:56:25
of coffee together.
For some reason...
:56:28
l told him why l was at the station.
:56:31
Peter was interested somehow.
Suddenly he told me...
:56:36
that he'd never gone
to a prostitute before.
:56:39
l recommended Katarina Krafft,
gave him her address...
:56:44
and promised to talk to her about it.
That's the whole story.
:56:49
That's the reality. But
actually it's not even half of it.
:56:54
l was furious at Katarina Egermann.
:56:56
Fact is, l've always been furious
with her, even though l liked her.
:57:02
l liked the idea that Peter was
cheating on her with a prostitute.
:57:07
But that's only part of the truth.
:57:10
Weak people choose strange paths.
You should know that, lnspector.
:57:16
lt torments me that l was the one who
introduced the killer to the victim.
:57:22
Please excuse my dramatic turns of
phrase. l just have a bad conscience.
:57:27
l blame my homosexuality.
:57:31
That too is just part of the truth.
:57:34
This is starting to become
interesting, don't you think?
:57:55
The truth is of course that
l wanted Peter all to myself.
