By accepting a drink, Stern demonstrates his respect for Schindler, and Schindler accepts the finality of Stern's probable fate.

Stern, an accountant in "Schindler's List," first opens the doors for Jewish rescue at Schindler's factory by recognizing the potential for profit in employing Jews, who were seen as cheap labor. He approaches Schindler, advocating for the employment of Jewish workers as a means to protect them from deportation and death. By presenting the idea as financially beneficial, Stern effectively persuades Schindler to hire Jews, laying the groundwork for the eventual rescue of many lives. This pragmatic approach not only highlights Stern's resourcefulness but also sets the stage for Schindler's moral transformation.

Itzhak Stern was a Jewish accountant to German industrialist Oskar Schindler. He worked alongside Schindler as the accountant for his Enamelware company in Kraków and greatly helped in running the company. He is credited with typing the list of names known as Schindler's list; a list of Jews who survived the Holocaust because of Oskar Schindler's intervention.
In "Schindler's List," stern nudging of Oskar Schindler towards rescue is evident in several key moments. For instance, the persuasive arguments from his Jewish accountant, Itzhak Stern, highlight the moral imperative to save lives, prompting Schindler to reconsider his motivations. Additionally, the harrowing scenes depicting the brutality faced by Jews in the Kraków ghetto serve as a stark reminder of the urgency for action, further nudging Schindler to use his resources for rescue efforts. These influences gradually shift Schindler's focus from profit to humanitarianism.
