He hides in the candy store of a German who deserted his Jewish wife and son to fight for the Communists against the Nazis; but who ended up running carloads of Jews to concentration camps, and now pretends to have been a Jewish concentration camp victim. Finally, Rosie, and NYU coed who wants to be a writer, drops in on her way to the abortionist...
