Hannah is fired from her editing job through messenger boy Gustl after 14 years under the claim of "needed cutbacks" and is sure the "Aryanization board" will eventually keep Jews out of all employment to further isolate them from society.
Franz warns Inge that Lise's father is high up in Nazi Party ranks and could end the embarrassment of his "Aryan" daughter being friends with a Jew by having their whole family arrested.
Later, Franz is threatened by Gustl with false accusations of "indecorous" (improper) behavior with their Aryan maid, Mitzi, who still enjoys working for them despite the new laws that will soon make such employment illegal, whether she wants to leave or not.
Later, Hannah is told by the Yugoslav consul in Vienna that it is now required to have been a baptized Christian since 1936 or earlier to enter Yugoslovia at all and to provide baptismal certificates as proof thereof.
The baptism is administered, the Dourenvalds get their visas, and the next day, bid Mitzi farewell and tell her she can have whatever possessions of theirs that she wants, as they can't take them with them, and board a train leaving Austria with Gustl and his friends on their trail.
