When the baron is caught...


...in Preysing's room, my DVR skipped. I'm not sure what happens from the time they walk over to the window to the time when Preysing starts hitting him. Is there any dialogue?

I was JUST about to ask the same thing! There's a jump/cut in the film. What happened there? The Baron starts to mumble something (or that's how it seems) and then there's a cut, to Preysing with the phone in his hand, over his head. What happened????

When Preysing is in the bedroom with Crawford, he sees the shadow of someone walking in the other room. When he slowly enters the room he realizes that it's the Baron. The Baron tries to strug it off by stating he entered the room by accident, Preysing quickly realizes the the Baron is there to steal. Heated words were exchanged and the Baron asks for mercy and Preysing loses his temper and strikes the Baron repeatedly with the telephone.

Your DVR did not skipped, there's a weird cut there.

Here's the scene, from the blu-ray : https://streamable.com/fywl
