The Man in the High Castle

We're expecting a crowd in the hundreds of thousands.

I have to say, I'm a little concerned

about public safety, Mr. Turner.

As are we, Reichsmarschall.

Our best pilots have been training for weeks.

Mock exercises in the Bay of Fundy.

I expect it to go off without a hitch.

-(film clicking) Mein Fuhrer, I believe

Ms. Dormer has something else she'd like to show you.

As we prepare for the Jahr null celebrations,

we're adding something that will delight you.

A surprise.

I like surprises.

(film projector whirring, clicking)

"Different worlds"? Ha.

What horseshit.

Give her a chance to explain.

I know it's hard to imagine, but it's-it's not a trick.

What good is dreaming about different worlds?

This is the best of all possible worlds, right here.

It's not.

The film proves that.

Look, this place and this world will not last

if we don't change it for the better.

It's only a matter of time; it will get worse.

There's nothing we can do about that.

It is in God's hands.

It's in our hands.

That's why I showed you this film,

so we could learn from that world

and apply it to this one.

The fascists can be beaten.

It's real, isn't it?

It's possible.

Yeah. Yeah, it's real.

Well, I'm sorry.

But you, uh...

you have to admit that that is a difficult thing to believe.

Right?

And you still don't.

I'd love to... but no, I don't.

I believe you.

I believe the film.

Thank you.

I'm a physicist, not an engineer.

This is what lab fabricators call a build-ready blueprint.

They're building it.

I know they are.

Nazis.

Yeah.

Well, whatever it is, it's massive,

and it uses an enormous amount of energy,

enough to light up a small city.

Well, what do you make of it, Doctor?

It's a quantum transfer device.

A machine to travel between worlds.

I mean, physicists have been working

along these lines for years.

I had no idea the Nazis were so close.

Y-You don't happen to know where, do you?

A tunnel.

A mine shaft in the mountains.

Makes sense.

You'd want to situate it near a quantum anomaly,

where the membrane is the thinnest, but you'd also

want it underground, in case of accident.

Well, what would happen?

The potential explosive yield

would be catastrophic, it's like a small atomic bomb.

But underground...

Even so,

it'd decimate everything for miles around,

turn it to cinders.

Your memory.

An accident?

Unless someone blew it up.

You're home.

Yeah, I was, um...

John, the school called today.

They-they want to schedule Jennifer's test.

Can't she just not take it?

John? I-I...

You're the Reichsmarschall.

Precisely, Helen.

Setting an example to the public.

Helen, if...

Listen, if we try to evade this, it's gonna look

like an admission of guilt, and it'll be used against us.

Hoover?

Anyone.

And if she tests positive?

What are you having?

It's a bit early for me, but be my guest.

Good as it gets, hot off the government press.

How'd you manage to get something this good?

Well, I still have a few teeth in my head,

and a few friends in the GNR.

It's all there, pal.

It's not that I don't trust you.

Feeling's mutual.

Got to go. You have a good holiday.

Who said I was going anywhere?

I just figured,

a pretty lady like that,

you and her...

Just business.

Remember what I told you.

See you next time.

You fucking idiot.

Liam. What the hell?

You greedy bastard.

No, I didn't...

Yes, you did...

...you Nazi fucker.

Before I get out of bed in the morning, I-I...

I run through a list, just in my head, of all the things

that my three children will need for school and the day.

Then I remember.

I only have two children, now.

Not three.

Yeah.

It's inefficient, when you think about it.

What is?

My son wasn't useless, he could've contributed

in countless meaningful ways.

Well, the Reich's policies benefit us all.

I'm sorry, I-I don't see what benefit there is.

To preserve and protect the family.

The, uh...

...genetic purity of the Reich.

Minister Goebbels has a deformity.

He's a great man, he's done great things...

Helen, that is an ugly rumor.

You mustn't give it any credence.

Mm, it isn't. It isn't a rumor.

I've met the minister.

Why are you thinking about this now?

Well, I don't-I don't know.

I just...

I wake up every morning and I am sad.

But I'm also angry.

It isn't-it isn't fair.

Of course I-I'm gonna lash out,

I-I'm gonna act on impulse, so...

I don't know what you're alluding to.

I just wish

that I could turn back the clock on so many things.

We all have our regrets, and speaking of the clock,

I'm afraid, uh, we'll have to leave it there.

Oh.

I so appreciate your patience with me, Daniel.

Dr. Ryan.

I think it's important to maintain decorum

for your analysis.

Yes, of course it is.

Dr. Ryan.

Oh, my. Oh...

-I'm sorry. Oh, I shouldn't have done that. -That's all right.

-I-It was an-an impulse. -It's all right. It's, no,

it's, uh, transference, it's, uh, totally normal.

It's normal?

Nothing about this feels normal.

Is that a new kata?

What is that one called?

-Kasumi. -Kasumi.

"Through the mists."

I see you.

Graceful.

Like a crane.

Graceful, yes.

But it is a kata for combat.

To kill your enemy.

Trade Minister, it is time.

You seem more worried today than usual.

These are dark and uncertain times, Tamiko-san.

Tagomi-san.

I have faith in you.

Juliana!

: That's him.
