9

In a train at Düsseldorf, Keaton meets an arrogant lady. After passing through Cologne, the lady loses her purse containing her ticket, passport and wallet. Keaton offers to pay for her ticket since they are both heading to Basel. The lady gives Keaton an heirloom jewel, but she extorts him into making a stop at Koblenz. Waiting for the next train, the lady claims that her name is Louise von Hohenstaufen, who had a lineage of nobility in Bohemia. Her family became poor during World War II, and her lover Heinrich told her to relocate his private property in West Germany, which resulted in her being pursued by the StB ever since then. With her passport lost and only one stop before reaching Basel, the lady is encouraged by Keaton to sing a folk song in order to avoid the customs officers. Once there, Keaton exploits her for being German and not Swiss. The lady reveals that her real name is Helmina Welf, and her wealthy family from Saxony was barricaded by the Inner German border in West Germany. Her son Otto and her husband Rudolf each disappeared to East Germany but never returned even after ten years. Heinrich told her that Rudolf died and Otto joined the military. The lady gives her ring to Keaton as genuine proof. Upon meeting his business partner Daniel O'Connell in a bar, Keaton learns that the gemstone of the ring originated in Saxony. Keaton eventually realizes that the lady was telling the truth. (Source: Wikipedia)
