00:00I hear that Heidrick has a little Jew blood in him.
00:02Why don't you ask her?
00:03And how is it that you can speak Hebrew?
00:06Or is it only Yiddish you speak?
00:07Well, I lived among them. I worked among them.
00:09And I picked up a few words.
00:11Jewish, Yiddish, what they were. Not enough to speak.
00:13So I went in search of a rabbi.
00:14Rabbi means teacher.
00:16But may I tell you the Lord's honest truth?
00:17So many of our highest-ranking officers,
00:20whose responsibility it is to deal with the Israelites,
00:22they make no attempt to get inside the Jewish head.
00:25I went to visit this rabbi, old man Longbeard.
00:27His eyes grew as large as hen's eggs.
00:30I asked him to teach me his language, and he agreed.
00:32And he said that he would, but that he would charge me.
00:34So I applied to my commander for funds, and I was denied.
00:36Now, I've run into this opposition all my life,
00:38so I paid my own money. Very little, not much.
00:41But looking back, I realize it was poor judgment on my part,
00:44because I could so easily have the old man arrested,
00:46put into prison, and demanded lessons from him in his cell, free of charge.
00:49One day he went out.
00:51He was rounded up and shipped off because he had gone out unadvisedly.
00:54And I thought, that's so stupid.
00:56Didn't he know that I would have protected him?
00:58At least until my lessons were complete.
