this brokenness I feel.”

I'm sure there are a lot of people here who do want to hear it. So why don't you just be quiet.

You have two hours left in which to confess everything. If you don't, I shall hand you over to the Gestapo, who are used to dealing with such gangsters and criminals — you won't enjoy their methods a bit.”
