Kotler reporting his father
What would they have done with his father if he reported him? Killed him?

shareIf he had reported his father, yes he could've been killed. But it is also likely he would've been sent to Dachu or another camp for political dissidents.
shareIf that happened, he deserved it anyways. I'd have no sympathy for him. He was a major jerk to the Jewish boy when Bruno gave him cake and to the Jewish man (forgot his name) who spilt the drink during dinner.
shareWell he was in Switzerland a neutral country so there's really nothing they could have done to the father but the Commandant seemed inclined to provide Kotler with an out in 'taking the air' which Kotler in a sense earned by beating the servant and proving himself.
We have to show the world that not all of us are like him: Henning von Tresckow.
