Attention, emergency caII for PETER 12 and PETER 15.

Attention. Emergency caII for 12 and 15.

GIockengiesserwaII. United WorId Bank.

Emergency caII. The normaI round is canceIIed.

GIockengiesserwaII United WorId Bank.

Emergency caII. NormaI round is canceIIed...

12, you and the Ieading vehicIe. Come in.

Very good. Less than three minutes. And that's through heavy traffic.

Captain, congratulations.

You gentlemen know in the United States, in just 10 years

while house robberies have gone up 133% and street robberies 186% ,

bank robberies have gone up 296% .

As a matter of fact, there's an embezzlement, larceny, or bank robbery

every 30 minutes, five days a week, 52 weeks out of the year.

But the problem for you gentlemen is the thing seems to be moving this way.

And very soon that shocking condition may prevail soon right here in Hamburg.

But it's not gonna happen in this bank.

Mr. Kessel, how long has it taken me to install this system?

Almost a year.

l am proud to say we have now the same protection as our American branches.

Bulletproof glass. Same as before.

Television, closed circuit, 24 hours a day.

Checks can be cashed only at this window.

Would you bounce a check while you're being photographed?

lf someone is foolish enough to stage a hold-up, give them the money.

Mr. Kessel.

No heroes.

Nobody has to risk his life, or even the customer's.

The alarm rings automatically.

Karl.

Armed guards. Young. They hit what they shoot at.

Professional crooks always case a bank,

learn the layout, the routine, what happens hour by hour.

The only routine in this bank is that there's ''no routine.''

Now, these vaults have time locks, three clocks working in unison.

This type of lock has never been cracked yet.

This door, eight inches of tempered steel, $50,000 each.

Now, here are some of the tools that have made your insurance rates go up.

Power drill, nitroglycerine, burning bar. That bar costs $7.

lt'll burn through that door in one minute or that wall in two minutes,

but it won't happen for two reasons.

That camera and this new sonic alarm. Mr. Kessel.

Now, with 16 million safety deposit boxes in the United States,

why are Americans coming here to rent them?

Because, in America, the police can open any box with a court order.

But here in Hamburg, as in Hong Kong, Tangiers, Switzerland, among others,

the banking laws keep these boxes absolutely private.

lf you gentlemen want their business,

you've got to give these people maximum security.

And this thing never sleeps.

Day and night, it makes sure all these secrets are safe.

Even from the bank itself.

Good morning.

When they asked Willie Sutton,

America's famous bank robber,

''Why do you keep robbing banks when you keep getting caught?''

His answer was,

'''Cause the banks are where the money is.''

Mr. Collins.

She said no more kickbacks.

-Just like that? -That's what she said.

And what'd you say?

Stupid brass chicken-shit!

-l've got no will-power. -Good.

So, twice a week, first shopping, and then business with my private box.

l would give anything to see your private box.

Mr. Kessel, all boxes are the same. You know that.

Only some boxes are big and some are small.

-Miss Divine, your key. -Thank you.

One old gentleman gets very young

Don't you ever take your clothes off to do it?

You're so square.

You are a victim of the Establishment.

-You're not? -Don't be silly.

and infidelity and money and l go to church.

These guys are the Establishment, hidden money, big money.

That's the Establishment. Right there.

You're not one of them, you work for them.

Everybody. Judges, lawyers, politicians, even the banks, they work for them.

All of us, we're all working for them.

But l can tell you one thing...

your fire chief friend there is about to empty his cash box.
