"Suggest that she places an advertisement to this effect... in the personal column of the London Times... signed perhaps with some nickname which her father will know at once."

"Might be Meidvidtz." "Not very likely though." "However, the important thing is, what can I do for you?" "I want to refer to certain technical evidence... given before the Naval Heavy Armaments 1935 Committee." "If you will let me have a report of the copy, Commander." "Certainly." "It will take only a moment." "I have my own filing system here." "A copy of the Naval Heavy Armaments 1935 Committee's report." " Have you been in Berlin long, Major?" " No." "I only left the Siegfried line last Tuesday." "Really?" "How is it there?" "Things are pretty hectic, I expect." "Pumping night and day." "I was there in a consultative capacity." "Steel fortifications." "You possibly have heard." "Oh, yes, yes." "Major Herzoff, of course." "Looks rather like Stuckner." "But I believe he is doing diplomatic work in the Balkans." " And who is not?" " [Door Opens]" "I'm afraid we haven't a copy of the 1935 report, sir." " What's that?" " We have one of'34, but not '35." "Are you sure there was a '35 committee?" "I sat in it myself as army liaison officer." "I beg your pardon." "Very well, very well." "It's these fellows at the top." "They forget to send copies on."

"I have with me Major Ulrich Herzoff of the Corps of Engineers." "He is well known for his splendid technical achievements on our west wall... as you're no doubt aware." "He will be greatly obliged if you can give him some assistance." "You'll see him at once?" "Thank you, sir." "1935, you said." "I guess I could get hold of a copy for you." "Now, Commander Prada, you may be able to help me more directly." " You know, I just left the Siegfried line." " Mm-hmm." " So Kampfeldt said." "How is everything?" " The Krupp's armor plating is the trouble." "Confidentially, that's why I am in Berlin." "Do you realize that the steel used by the Czechs is better than anything we have got?" "Mm-hmm." "So I've heard." "But surely, now that we control the Harska works..." "Not enough." "We let the only man who counted there slip through our fingers." " Bomasch." " Yes." "I knew Axel Bomasch personally." "I was present at the first gunnery test of his G.K. plating." "Incredible results." "Where is he?" "Working for Britain." "But if we can't trace this 1935 report" "One moment, Major." "You will be surprised to hear that Bomasch is no longer in England." "What?" "He was brought back to Germany only a few hours ago." "In fact, he's in this building now." "But this completely alters my plans." "Perhaps you can arrange for me to see Herr Bomasch at once." "I'm afraid it's impossible." "He's with the controller." "Surely there's no harm in my asking him a few questions." "It's beyond my province, Major." "I'll pass you on to Captain Viengarten, but frankly I don't think it will get you any further." "The controller's office is rather like the kingdom of heaven... and, if anything, a little more exclusive." "But you are no longer living in a decadent democracy... ruled by a pack of raving intellectuals!" "This is the Third Reich, and the führer does not tolerate... stupid, insolent obstinacy!" "You have been asked to work for Germany, Herr Bomasch, and you will." "Can't you leave him alone?" "You've bullied and shouted at him ever since we got here!" " He's had no sleep!" " He must agree!" "Can I have another word with him, sir?" "As you please." "Anna." "It's useless for your father to resist like this." "You must persuade him." "You will both be given reasonable freedom." "Freedom here?" "In time, you will see things the way I do... the way everyone in Germany does." "I'm not a German." "Germany is as much your country as it is ours now." "We don't hate the Czechs." "We only wish to protect them." "As you're protecting the people of Poland?" "You have been too long in Britain, listening to their smug hypocrisy!" "If I listened to hypocrisy in Britain, it was not from the British." "I was doing my duty... as a citizen of the Reich and a subject of the führer... for whose sacred mission no sacrifice is too great." "That sounds rather like something you learnt from a book." "For years, you've had this sort of thing drilled into you until it's all you know or care about!" "You're a fanatic with a set of stupid, fixed ideasl" "If you hadn't made me hate you more than I thought I could possibly hate anybody..." "I think I should feel sorry for you." "You have expressed yourself very clearly, Fraulein Bomasch." "You will be placed in a concentration camp until your father comes to his senses." " Must you drag my daughter into this?" " It rests with you, Herr Bomasch." "Hello?" "What, here?" "Very good." "Admiral Hassinger is on his way up." "The Chief of Naval Staff, Vice Admiral Count Hassinger." "Come in, my dear fellow." "Come in." "Strasse, let me present Major Herzoff of the Corps of Engineers." "I expect you have heard of him." "The man behind the Siegfried line, eh, Herzoff?" "[Randall] Only one of the men, sir." "The führer is responsible for the line as he is responsible for everything." "Well, what progress?" "You remember me, Herr Bomasch." "I did not expect to see you again here." "And you, Fraulein Bomasch." "I see you have not forgotten." "It must be... four years." "[Clicks Heels]" "[Clicks Heels]" "Major Herzoff is preparing a highly confidential report on armor plating." "He has been on several missions to Prague." " He met Bomasch there." " Just one moment, sir." "Marsen, conduct Herr Bomasch and his daughter into the next room." " Mr. Bomasch." " Maybe we shall meet again, later." "I thought it unwise to speak in front of Bomasch." " So far, we've made no impression on him." " I do not agree." "He looks 10 years older." "My orders are to obtain quick results." "At the Reich, we are rather inclined to believe... that the knuckle-duster is the best diplomatic weapon." " Do I understand that you question?" " I question nothing." "I am an army officer." "Personally, I do not follow any of this at all." "Bomasch is not the man to be bullied into cooperation, sir." "Well, what do you suggest?" "I knew Fraulein Bomasch in Prague." "She has a great influence with her father and is the one person who can make him change his mind." "Oh, Marsen here has tried that, but she refused to listen." "He is largely responsible for tracing Bomasch in England... completely outwitting the British military intelligence." "So, may I express a soldier's admiration... for one who can carry out his mission under the very eyes of the enemy secret service?" "Thank you, sir." "But if I may say so, I hardly think the captain... is a suitable person to influence the lady." "And who do you think would be more suitable?" "Why, uh, myself, for instance." " You?" " Why not?" "Herzoff was very friendly with her in Prague, you know." "A little more than friendly." "You saw the way she looked at me when I came in." "Oh, yes, of course." "Seems to me you are a bit of a dog, Herzoff." "A technician, Admiral." "One does not talk about these things... but I think if I were to spend a few hours alone with her..." "I might induce her to reason with her father." "Oh." "What do you think about that, Strasse?" "I cannot promise, mind you." "Four years is a long time." "It seems to me it is worth attempting." " After all, the business is urgent, Strasse." " It is indeed, sir." "You really believe that you could influence a girl in a matter of hours?" " Shall we say overnight?" " I see." "Knowing Fraulein Bomasch, sir, I doubt whether even his qualities... will make any impression on her." " You aren't acquainted with my qualities." " Strasse, we'll let him try it." "No harm done if he doesn't succeed." "Leave all the arrangements to me." "This requires a knowledge of maneuvers." "Come along, Herzoff." "You may be right, my dear." "Bennett may be trying to help us." "But why have they brought us to this hotel, provided you with clothes?" "It doesn't make sense to me." "Well, Bennett's behind it, obviously." "He's organized the whole thing." "How?" "Well, how did he manage to get into the German admiralty as a Nazi officer?" "But I don't see how he can get us away from here, Anna." "Oh, Father, don't worry about it." "Perhaps you'd better go to bed now, eh?" "We'll find out what it's all about in the morning." " Good night." " Good night." "Good night, my dear." "[Knocking]" "Come in." " Fraulein Bomasch?" " Yes." "Thank you." " You are expecting me." "Major Herzoff." " Yes, sir." "Good evening." "Your room is Number 18." "Your bags have been taken up." " My flowers arrive?" " Yes, sir." "The lady has them." " Thank you." "Good night." " Good night, sir." "[Motor Whirring]" "[Door Opens]" "My darling, you look as charming as ever." "Those same sweet lips, like warm carnations." "Those sweet, mysterious eyes, darker and softer... than the bluest dusk of August violets." "As the poet has it, and I hope he was Aryan." "No one under the bed, I trust." "Uh, bring me a bottle of Krug '28." " That will be excellent." " What's happening?" "Well, you may have gathered that we were partners in a highly romantic interlude in Prague four years ago." " By the way, did you like the flowers?" " Does that matter?" " It cost me 12 coupons." " Well, go on." "Well, tomorrow morning I'm going to phone the admiral... and say that your father is now prepared to work for Germany." " What?" " I shall say that I persuaded you to reason with him." "They're bound to ask me to take you both along." "The Gestapo man downstairs will let us pass and then..." " Yes, but how do you know he will?" " They listen in to the phone." "They always do." "Then instead of driving to the admiralty, we shall go to a meadow outside Berlin... where a plane is waiting." "I see." "But why should the admiralty believe you've persuaded me?" "I shall indicate that, uh, once again you have succumbed to my charms." "Once again?" "It happened in Prague, I'm afraid." "And you told them a fantastic story like that?" "Fantastic?" "Well, it was four years ago, there was a harvest moon... and I was younger and more dashing then." "But you really mean all this?" "It sounds far too simple." "I have a very simple mind." "But there is one small complication." "Uh..." "I shall have to spend the night here... in a purely professional spirit, of course." " That is necessary?" " Well, sort of fits into the picture." "The place is absolutely crawling with Gestapo." " Have you any sporting instinct?" " Why?" "Well, I'll, uh, toss you who sleeps on the couch." "But you're treating all this as if it were some sort of joke." " You don't seem to realize how much depends upon it." " It's no good being intense about it." " You don't think I like the idea of a firing squad, do you?" " What?" "England may be at war with Germany tomorrow." "Oh, I see." "But don't you think I ought to tell my father about all this?" " No." " Why not?" "It'd hardly look right for a lovesick girl to go popping back to her dad." " [Sighs] - [Knocking]" "That'll be the waiter." "If you can pretend you find me almost unbearably attractive, so much the better." " All right." "I'll try." " Thank you." "My little Anna." "[Door Closes]" "## [Whistling Tune]" "## [Whistling Continues]" " Is it, uh, raining?" " No, miss." "## [Whistling Continues]" "Is anything the matter?" "That tune you were whistling, sir - it is an English tune, isn't it?" " How do you know?" " I heard it on the radio from London last night." "Are you not aware that listening to the foreign broadcasts is forbidden?" " That there is a strict penalty?" " Oh, I'm sorry, sir." "I will not report you on this occasion, but see that you are more discreet in future." "Get out." " [Door Closes] - [Sighs] Very awkward." "Lucky it wasn't "Rule, Britannia!"" "I handled it rather neatly, I thought." "If a woman ever loved you like you love yourself, it would be one of the romances of history." "As I'm unlikely to think of an adequate reply to that, I think we ought to drink a toast." "England expects that every secret service man this night shall do his duty." " [Mild Pop]" " Flat." "[Rhone Rings]" "[Ringing Continues]" " They're ringing your room." " I'll take it here." "It looks better." " Hello?" "Is that call for me?" " [Ringing Continues, Stops]" "It's German Admiralty." "Yes." "Herzoff here." "Yes, sir." "I'm sorry to disturb you at this hour, Herzoff, but we have to alter our plans." "We have just received instructions from headquarters in Munich... that Bomasch is to go there at once by the first train." "But this is ridiculous, sir." "Couldn't you delay it for a few hours?" "Impossible." "It is on the führer's orders." "The train leaves in an hour's time." "But, sir, what is the use of sending Herr Bomasch to headquarters in his present frame of mind?" "What do you suppose the führer's frame of mind would be if we didn't?" "I'm sorry, Herzoff. [Sighs]" " What's happening?" " They're sending you to Munich at once." " There's only one chance." " What?" " Leave the hotel, scuttle..." "an old German custom." " But the guards downstairs." "We got into the admiralty." "We'll get out of here." "Get your clothes on." "Tell your father we leave here in five minutes." "[Motor Whirring]" "I've been instructed to leave immediately with Herr Bomasch." "I shall not require you." "Dismissed." " [Clerk] Shall I get you a taxi, sir?" " I'll call one myself." " Good morning, sir." " [Bennett] Good morning." "I'm here to escort Herr Bomasch and Fraulein Bomasch to Munich." "The controller phoned me 10 minutes ago." "I was about to drive them to the admiralty myself." "My orders are to take them straight to the station." "The train leaves in 50 minutes." "Evidently a misunderstanding on my part." " Very well." "We are ready." " You, sir?" "Certainly." "Were you not told?" "I have the admiral's authority to travel with them." "He feels it essential that Herr Bomasch should be persuaded to comply with our wishes... before he reaches headquarters." "I was progressing extremely well with Fraulein Bomasch when this happened." "I see." "Very good, sir." "[Clicks Heels]" " [Man] Zigaretten!" "Zigarren!" " [Reople Chattering]" "[Trolley Bell Ringing]" " [Man] There's not a copy of this week's Runch?" " Please?" "Runch." "English magazine." "Very humorous." "You must have a copy." "No." "She hasn't got a Runch, old man." " Hasn't she?" " No." "Well." "Sold out, I suppose." "[Conductor] You will all leave here and find places elsewhere." "This compartment is commandeered by the police." "Come along." "No delay, please." "They've got La Vie Rarisienne, old boy." "La Vie Rarisienne?" "All right." "Don't bother about a Runch." "[Candy Vendor Continues In German]" "Oh." "Everyone's hopped it." "[Murmurs] Must have got in the wrong train, I expect." " [Bell Ringing]" " We can have a side each to ourselves now." " Put our feet up." " There." "Bought a copy of Mein Kampf." "Occurred to me it might shed a spot of light on all this how-do-you-do." " Ever read it?" " Never had the time." "I understand they give a copy to all the bridal couples over here." "Oh, I don't think it's that sort of book, old man." "This is the compart" " Why are you still here?" " What?" " You must find other places at once." "We have first-class tickets, you know." "Outside, please." "This compartment has been commandeered by the authorities." " That is beside the point." " Yes." "We are British subjects." "Yes." "Look here." ""We, Edward Frederick Lindley, Viscount Halifax..." "His Majesty's Principal Secretary of State" et cetera..." ""request all whom it may concern..." ""to allow the bearer to pass without let or hindrance... and to afford him or her"" "Outside!" " Hmm." " [Murmurs]" " No good arguing, I suppose." " Apparently not." "Waste of time, all this bilge in the passport." "[No Audible Dialogue]" "Come, please." " It's hopeless." "We'll never get away now." " We'll think of something." " Outside." "Come along." "Hurry!" " All right." "All right." "Hel..." "Excuse me." "[Bennett] Now, don't forget that you're terribly attracted to me." "The two guards' compartment is in there, sir." "All right." "Thank you." " Would you like to face the engine?" " Whatever you like." "Did you notice that German officer who came into our compartment?" "Yes." "Why?" "Well, I could've sworn it was old Dicky Randall." "Dicky Randall?" " [Train Whistle Blows]" " Yes." "We were at Balliol together." "You must have heard me talking about him." "He used to bowl slow leg breaks." "Played for the Gentlemen once." "Caught and bowled for a duck, I remember." "Oh, yes." "Dicky Randall." "Well, if he's a German officer, how can he be Dicky Randall?" "Well, I knew him quite well." "His rooms were next to mine." "Why on earth..." "You don't think he's working for the Nazis like that fellow what's-his-name?" "Traitor?" "Hardly, old man." "He played for the Gentlemen." "Only once." "[Whistle Blowing]" "It was last Easter." "I was looking in a shop window in the Graben... and I saw the reflection of a girl." "For a moment, I thought it was you." " Were you by yourself?" " Yes." "Why?" "I just wondered." "It's a blackout." "You know what that means so far west as this." "England and France have declared war." "We have nothing to fear." "The nation is behind the führer." "Yes, but how far behind?" "[Anna] We're stopping." " [Brakes Squealing] - [Blows Whistle]" "Everybody out at once, please!" "[Conductor] Everybody out on the platform." "Everybody out of the compartment, please." "Everybody out at once, please." " [Marsen] Why are we stopping here?" " I don't know yet, sir." "Just had the order." "Everybody out, please." "Everybody out." "Everybody out." "[Female Conductor Continues, Indistinct]" " How far are we from Munich?" " About an hour's journey." "All passengers off the train, please." "All passengers off the train." "All passengers off the train, please." " What's happening?" " Everybody" "Heil Hitlerl This train is required for troops." "There will be only a small amount of room available for passengers." " [Marsen] My party must have the same accommodations." " Oh, yes." "The train leaves again in 20 minutes." "May I have your carriage number, please, sir?" " Yes." "It's, uh, 0735." " 0735." "Oh, I beg your pardon." "Aren't you old Dicky Randall?" "Major Herzoff, Corps of Engineers." "Oh, I'm frightfully sorry." "It was very silly of me, but it's an amazing likeness." "Yes, you'd better come along, old man." "Extraordinary." "English, I presume." " Apparently." " They're a very peculiar race." "We have a small waiting room, sir." "Perhaps you would prefer to wait in there." " Thank you." " This way, please." "Please." "Please, this way." "Everybody off the train now, please!" "Everybody off the train!" "You know, you... you made me feel painfully embarrassed, Caldicott." "Well, I can't help it if old Dicky Randall has a double." "You must realize that we're traveling in very difficult times." " [Chuckling]" " What's the matter?" "I can't help thinking of your face when he said, "Major Herzoff, Corps of Engineers"." "Well, all I can say, Charters, is that when it comes to humor... we live in entirely different worlds." "This waiting room is required." "Every passenger must wait outside." "Come on." "Und you too, please." "Come on." "So quick like possible." " This is getting beyond a joke." " Yes." "We can't stand for this." "Come on, please." "Out." "Everybody out so quick as possible." "Everybody must wait outside." "All passengers must wait outside." "Rlease go." "No good being undignified, old man." "No, quite right." "Come on." "Please, please, please, please." "Come on." "Come on." "Come on." "So." "Please." "Please." "Please." "Oh, Major." "May I phone Munich to notify them of our delay?" "Of course." "My absence may provide the opportunity for Fraulein Bomasch to approach her father." "It might help." "You seem to have made a considerable impression on the lady, Major." "I apologize for doubting your capabilities." "Stay on guard here." "See that no one enters or leaves." "Understand?" "No one." " That man who spoke to you, did you know him?" " Yes, I did." "A fellow called Caldicott." "It's probably the first time he's ever left England before the end of the cricket season." " Just my luck." "He gave me a very nasty moment." " No one would have guessed it." "I was a member of the Foreign Office operatic society." "Do you know I once played Pooh-Bah to the Foreign Secretary's Ko-Ko?" " Have you thought of any way of getting us out of this?" " I have." "A car will be waiting at Munich to take us to headquarters." "We'll be quite a crowd, and I shall ask for a second car so that we can be alone." " Suppose they don't give it to us." " They will." "Because by that time, we shall be on the verge of persuading your father to work for Germany." "You, on the other hand, must be asking for time to think." " You get the idea?" " Yes, but..." " Then we only have the chauffeur to deal with." "And after that" " Switzerland." " Switzerland?" " Well, we can hardly break through the Siegfried line." "Yes, but Switzerland's a long way from Munich." "If we can bluff them into giving us that car, we'll make it." "So from now on, Mr. Bomasch, you've got to make up your mind... whether to keep your armor plating or let it go rusty." " Is that quite clear?" " I think so." "And you're still so crazy about me that you would sell the armor plating for a very small lock of my hair." "All right." "You can't sit here!" " Why not?" " This truck is required." "Come on." "Off, off, off, off, off, off." "I suppose these bags aren't required too?" "Off, off, off, off, off, off, off." "Pushed about from pillar to post by this railway ever since we got on the train." " Everything we sit on seems to be required." " It's monstrous." " We shall write to the company about this." " Hmm!" "You're not at war with England yet, you know." "But you are mistaken." "France declared war this afternoon." "Und England declared war this morning." "So!" "Achtungl" "War." "[Rapers Flop]" "Yes." " Good heavens." " What's the matter?" "My golf clubs." "Where are they?" "I lent them to Max in Berlin." "Like a fool, I said he needn't bring them back till next Wednesday." "[Exhales] Probably seen the last of them." "Yes." "I expect they'll require them for something or other." "I read in the paper that they're pulling up park railings." "I don't see the connection, old man." "Well, your clubs are steel, aren't they?" " Yes." " So." "There you are then." "Whip shafts too." "Especially made for me." "Why not get in touch with Max?" " How?" " On the telephone." "Ask him to send them to London immediately." "It's a desperate chance, but it's worth taking." "I shall never be able to replace them." " Oh, uh, telephone?" " Hmm?" "Stationmaster's office." "Captain Strasse?" "Marsen here." " I'm speaking from Kurtbaden." " Oh, I beg your pardon." "It concerns Major Herzoff, sir." "I think a full inquiry should be made at once... in view of something which happened a few minutes ago." "A few minutes ago?" "You mean he's with you?" "Admiral Hassinger gave him the authority." "Hassinger did?" "He never told me." "That's very suspicious." "Yes, but the admiral himself introduced him." "I'll ask him." "I'll phone you back." "Uh, what is your number there?" "Yes, yes, yes." "In a few minutes." "Admiral Hassinger, please." "[Train Rassing]" "Hello?" "I want a long-distance call to Berlin." "Oliver 2-4-double 6." "What?" "Yes." "Yes, of course it's important." " It's all in German." " Hmm." "What?" "Well, how long then?" "Oh, all right." "Blasted junction's engaged by the military." "They'll call me back." "These people seem to have no idea of business as usual." "If I were asked to give a snap judgment, I should say that was an "S."" " More like an "F."" " I do not know, sir." "I used to know someone who made his S's like that." " Someone in the War Office?" " Well, no." "Ach." "We can't afford to waste time." "You didn't give him permission to travel with the prisoners, did you, sir?" "No, no." "But he may have assumed it." "If you remember, we more or less gave him carte blanche." "The only thing is to check up with the War Office, sir." " I suppose so." " War Office." "If he's right, this will be very serious for you, Kampfeldt." "Very serious indeed." "The letter was addressed to you." "There's no denying that, Kampfeldt." "Quite right." "I'm afraid I shall have to sack my secretary." "Hello?" "[Soldier Speaking German]" " [Rhone Rings]" " That'll be our call." " [Soldier Continues] - [Ringing Continues]" "Aufschliessen!" "Hmm!" "What infernal impudence." "I'll bet it's my call." "Marsen speaking." "Yes, sir." "Listen, Marsen." "You were right." "We have been completely fooled." "Herzoff is not known at the War Office." "There is no officer of that name on the army list." "Then, uh..." "Yes, sir." "Obviously." "An enemy agent." "I say, Charters, there's another phone in there." "What?" "Oh." "Lucky." " [Soldier Shouts In German]" " Hello?" "Hello?" "Hello!" " Gone dead." " [Cradle Clattering]" " Hello!" " Why not try the thingamy?" "Yeah." " You know, the... gadget." " Oh." "Hello..." "It's the extension." "That chap out there." "Well, perhaps he'll be off the line in a minute." " Shh!" " What's up?" "They're talking about what's-his-name." "You know, Herzoff." "No." "He doesn't suspect." "Yes, sir." "I see." "[Female Conductor] All passengers aboard, pleasel" "No time to stand here now, sir." "The train is leaving." "What?" "Listen, we can't afford to take risks." "Carry on with Herzoff to Munich." "Let him think he's getting away with it." "Understand?" "I'll get on to army headquarters there." "Very good, sir." "All passengers aboard, pleasel" " Everybody on the traini" " What is it?" "Well, as far as I can make out, Herzoff isn't Herzoff." " What?" " No." "They're sending an escort to arrest him - when we get to Munich." " Herzoff?" " Yes." " Well" " Then..." " Listen, if... if Herzoff isn't Herzoff..." " What?" " Well, he must be Dicky Randall." " Yes." "Everybody on the train!" "All passengers aboard, please!" "All passengers on the last two coaches only!" "All passengers aboard!" " All passengers aboard." " After you, Major." "All passengers on the last two coaches only." "All passengers on the last two coaches." "All passengers aboard." "All passengers on the last two coaches only." "All passengers on the last two coaches." "All passengers aboard." "Keep within call." "I shall need you at Munich, perhaps before." "[Blows Whistle]" " One thing emerges very clearly from all this." " [Train Whistle Blows]" " Caldicott!" " The train!" "There it goes!" "Oh, my, my!" "That's a mess!" "[Train Departing]" " [Panting] - [Caldicott] That was a near thing." "[Charters] I thought we were going to be in this infernal country for the duration." "Oh, my Lord." "Don't anticipate, old man." "What were you saying just now about something emerging very clearly?" " I said?" " Mmm." " When?" " On the platform." " About something emerging?" " Mmm." "What was it?" " What was what?" " What emerged." " You never said." " Oh." "We do not wish to persuade you to become a National Socialist, Herr Bomasch." "I explained that to your daughter." "Have I not?" "And you may work wherever you choose, Father." " Isn't that so?" " Quite." " After all, we should have our freedom." " I know, my dear." "But freedom is strangely interpreted in this country." "I do not agree with you, Herr Bomasch." "Freedom in Germany is a great advance on freedom elsewhere." "It's properly organized and controlled by the state." "I'd much rather we kept politics out of it." "Herr Bomasch unfortunately refuses to understand... the sacred importance of the Nazi world mission." " His stay in England perhaps." " No doubt." "A corrupt influence." "A corrupt country." "Controlled by international Freemasons and theJew Churchill." "[Clicks]" "But since you wish it, Herr Bomasch, we will drop politics... and discuss it from a more personal basis." "I'm certain, Charters, that what you were about to say... was that we've stumbled on something pretty serious." "There's no doubt which side Randall's playing for." " Ours?" " Yes." "Yes." "That's what was emerging so clearly." "It's up to us to find some way of warning him." "Yes." "Come on." "Let's find him." " I say, Caldicott." " Yes?" " Do you think we're wise rushing into this?" " How do you mean?" "Well, I mean we've no proof that Randall's working for England." " Well, everything points to it." " Yes, but is that enough?" "We're enemy aliens... and these Nazis are pretty free with their firing party." "Hmm." "Well, ought we to let that stand in our way?" "Well, certainly not." "I mean if - if we were certain." "As it is, we've just got to bear it in mind." "I don't see what else he can be doing." "For all we know, he may be an international crook." "Crooks don't generally play for the Gentlemen." "Raffles did." "That's fiction." "Still, you may be right, Charters." "Of course, if we were certain, we'd do our duty and take the risk." "Yes, of course." "As it is, I can get on with Mein Kampf." "Haven't got out of Hitler's boyhood yet." "And, Herr Bomasch, what is even more important... your daughter will be able to live with you or wherever she pleases." " You must give me time to think." " Certainly." "We should be in Munich in... 40 minutes." "Indeed." "For the first time, I will be sorry when the journey's over." "Yes." "I" " I can believe that." " I think we should order something to eat." " An excellent idea." "Just in case we do not find headquarters in a very... hospitable frame of mind." " Please." " Oh, sorry." "You don't choose to stand up when a German officer passes?" "You see, we're English." "Your passports." "Oh, beg your pardon." "You're quite right." "The English should not stand up." "They should go down on their fat bellies and crawl." " Now look here!" " So, you are standing up." "Very well." "We shall generously permit you to run back to England... no doubt to find yourselves safe jobs." "Meanwhile, you may sit down." " "Fat bellies"." " "Safe jobs"." "As if they weren't all taken by now anyway." "Caldicott, this is absolutely and finally the last straw." " Yes, Charters." " We'll warn Dicky Randall at once, come what may." "I'm with you, old man." "It's things like that that bring it home to you." "Sandwiches, biscuits." "Yes, sir." "Will you take tea substitute or coffee substitute?" "Tea for me, please." " Tea." " Fine." "He's in there." "That Gestapo fellow's there too." "Yes." "A couple of storm troopers in there." "How the devil are we going to pass him the word without that fellow spotting it?" " We've got to do it somehow." " Yes." "Of course, he... he might come out for a minute." "I mean, most people do." "We must act, Charters." "It's no good hanging about on the off chance." "Excuse, please." " Wait a minute." "That steward." " What about him?" "Well, he's bound to come back sometime to bring their order." "ByJove, yes." "Here he comes." " ## [Whistling]" " Excuse, please." " Oh, what... what time do we get to Munich?" " In about 30 minutes, sir." "Thank you." " All right?" " Yes." "I put it underneath a doughnut." "Good." "What?" "But how do you know they're for him?" "Well, I suddenly remembered that Dicky Randall always had doughnuts... sent up to his room for afternoon tea." "[Chuckles] That's very clever of you, old man." " Better get along there, hey?" " Mmm, right." " Oh, my Lord." " Why, what's up?" "Why, I'm" " I'm wondering if it was doughnuts." " What?" " I-I believe it was rock cakes." "[Exhales]" "Have you made all arrangements for transport at Munich, Marsen?" "Every arrangement, sir." " Will there be more than one car?" " Almost certainly two." "Then let's see, that will make seven." "Rather a crowd." "I think in order to finish my talk with Herr Bomasch, you had better take the second car." "Very good, sir." "I believe Herr Bomasch is really beginning to see that I am doing my best to help him." "I'm sure he knows that." "Yes, yes, Major." "Your attitude has been most reasonable." "You must remember it's only a few hours since Father was taken out of England by force." "Captain Marsen was only obeying orders." "Members of the Gestapo are frequently asked to perform duties... which others find too objectionable." "Some are objectionable." "Others I find extremely satisfying." "[Bennett] I often envy you your opportunities." "[Train Whistle Blowing]" "What is that, the bill?" "I will pay." "No, please." "I am escorting the party." "My dear Marsen, it's my privilege." "In fact, it is an order." "Terrible." "The way prices have gone up already." "Excuse me." "[Clicks Heels]" " Yes, I-I'm Randall." " How are you, old man?" " You remember me?" " Yes." " This is Charters, an old friend of mine." " How do you do?" "Well, what is it?" " We don't know what you're up to, of course." " Never mind about that." "But whatever it is, you appear to be on the spot." "Tell him about it, Charters." "Well, I was phoning Berlin about my golf clubs." "By the way, I'm resigned to the fact I shall never see them again, Caldicott." " Yes, well, get on with it." " I was just coming to that." "I was telephoning and got on the other chap's line... you know, that Gestapo fellow." "I overheard him saying they were sending a military escort... to arrest you when you get to Munich." "You see, you're rumbled." "They know that you're not Herzoff." "Now listen." "I can't tell you everything." "There isn't time." "But I've got to get that old man and the girl out of this country at all costs." "Oh, a - an official job." " Are you two fellows game to help me?" " What, against Germany?" "I'll say we are after all they've done to us." "What do you say, Caldicott?" " Absolutely, old man." "Backs to the wall." " I hope not." "I say, could you give me a little more room to think?" "[Clicks Heels]" " Is there any tea left?" " Yes, I think so, Ulrich." "There's no time for tea." "We reach Munich in a few minutes." "Oh, time for just one cup." "Cake, darling?" "No, thank you." "I am afraid I must ask you to drop this little comedy." "It is very entertaining, but I have certain formalities to attend to." "Comedy?" "What do you mean?" "Oh, thank you." "You're merely pretending to be infatuated with this man." "There's no such person as Major Herzoff." "He's a British agent trying to get you and your father out of Germany." "You must be crazy." "Ulrich." "I don't propose to waste the time of the Gestapo denying it." "Thank you." "You..." "You're going to give yourself up?" "Well, they have lots of proof, Mr. Bomasch." "An escort will be waiting at Munich to take you in charge." "You can't do this." " He's an enemy agent." " Weren't you?" "Didn't you do exactly the same as he's doing?" "With a slight but important difference." "I wasn't caught." " Are you just going to sit there and do nothing?" " Now, please don't make a scene." " Don't you realize what this means?" " Yes, I do." "But he has a gun, and I haven't." "And he's got a couple of reserves next door." "Who do you take me for" " Bulldog Drummond?" "[Sighs]" "Can't you be serious even now?" "I told you this would happen." "I told you your scheme was absolutely childish, but you wouldn't listen to me." "Why didn't you stay in England instead of coming over here... and deliberately throwing your life away, you fool?" "I have no time to listen to this ridiculous display." "Steiner!" "Dreimund!" "[Train Whistle Blowing]" "[Soldier Shouting Orders In German]" "[Soldier #2 Shouting Orders]" "[Bell Ringing]" "If there is more than one major on the train... how are we to know which one to arrest?" "Our man's got a Gestapo officer watching him." "Hmm." "Who has not these days?" " [Train Whistle Blowing]" " The train." "[Brakes Squealing]" " Heil Hitler." " Heil Hitlerl" "Marsen." "I'm on instruction from Fifth Army Headquarters to arrest Major Herzoff." "I fear you will need a stretcher." "The prisoner tried to escape, and I had to, uh - to deal with him." "You will find him in the last compartment, Coach 66." "Uh, what... what transport have you?" " Two cars." " Excellent." "Now, this is Herr Axel Bomasch from Harska and his daughter." "They are in protective custody, and I have instructions... to take them to General von Komwitz without delay." "With your permission, I will use one of the cars." " [Officer] Certainly." " I'll leave you to take charge of the prisoner." "Will you show me my car?" " Brunner." " [Clicks Heels]" "Take this S.S. officer to the car." " Coach 66 you said?" " The last compartment." "Full length on the seat." "Sergeant, get a stretcher from the stationmaster and follow me." "Olson, you will take the S.S. officer and his party in your car." "One moment." "Is your chauffeur to be trusted?" "I think so." "He is a very old member of the party." "Anti-Russian perhaps." "I think I'd rather take one of my own men." " I'm traveling to a place of the greatest secrecy." " Very good." " You will not be needed, Olson." " Very good, sir." "Rumplemeyer, you will drive." " Heil Hitler." " Heil Hitler." " Heil Hitler." " Heil Hitler." "Come on, quick." "[Engine Revs]" "Right, man!" "Right!" "You're not in England." " Oh, I'd forgotten." " [Vehicle Horn Honks]" "Not much of a life, a secret agent." "And the pay is bad too, sir." "[Man Grunts]" "I was just thinking, Charters." "In the last war, the army took over Lord's Cricket Ground for drilling troops on." " Wonder if they'll do it this time." " Shortsighted, you know." "Better pull up here, Charters." "We can't get to Switzerland by any of the main roads." "Let me take over, will you?" "Age around 22, height 5'4"." "Slim figure, dark, brown eyes." "That's the lot." "Phone these descriptions to all stations within a hundred-mile radius." "A report has just come in, sir, that the car has left the city by the south road." "So they are making for Switzerland." " We take the road." " Very good." "There's one thing that's worrying me, Randall, old man." "It may be silly of me, of course, but..." "How exactly are we going to get across the Swiss frontier?" "I know a little place where I used to go climbing... about 8,000 feet up where Switzerland and Germany meet." "You're not going to ask us to hang about on ropes, I hope." "I'm not, but they may." "There's a narrow road leads right to the top." " What's over the top?" " Switzerland." " Anything in between?" " 6,000-feet drop." " Well, how can we, uh..." " Skip it." "Skip it?" "[Tires Screeching]" " There's a car following us!" " Is there?" "Well, here we go." "Don't let them get away!" "[Shouting In German]" "[Horn Honking]" "[Air Hissing]" "I'll have to change the wheel!" "Watch the road, Charters." "Hello!" "Anybody here?" "Caldicott." "Anybody around?" " Switzerland." " [Footsteps On Stairs]" "Good morning to you, sir." "Good morning." " [Bennett] Are you in charge here?" " Yes." "There's only me." " I want to cross to Switzerland." " Now, sir?" " Yes, now." " But we're at war." "I had orders yesterday to close the teleferic." "My orders come from a higher source." "Higher than the chief of police at Maxberg?" " Gestapo headquarters at Munich." " Oh." "I have been instructed to show this lady and gentleman safely out of Germany." "I better ring Christopher." "[Attendant] Yes." "Right away." " There's a car coming." "Looks like them." " There are five of them altogether." " Keep an eye on them." " How are the goats, Christopher?" "Yes, thank you, Christopher." "I got it." "And the butter." "Do you want to be dismissed for incompetence?" "They'll be leaving in about two minutes, Christopher." "I shall require to see your papers, sir." "Have you got your passports?" "How long does this take to cross the valley?" " About four minutes." " Once it's in midair, can it be stopped?" "Why, yes, sir, if anyone wanted to stop it." "Will you follow me to the office?" "This way, please." " Can you see them?" " No, but I can hear the engine." " How does this thing work?" " That shouldn't be difficult." " Well, how?" " Yes, obviously, this starts it." " Yes?" " [Rounding On Door]" " Yes." "This is the speed regulator." " Speed regulator, right." "Get in quick." " All of you!" "Quick!" "Caldicott!" " [Rounding Continues]" " What about you?" " I'll start it and then jump on." "They're here!" " Come on." "Jump in." " Yes, but they..." "they'll stop us halfway across." "Get in, will you!" "Come on!" "Quickly!" "There it is!" "[Marsen] Stand aside!" "[Gunshots]" "Olson, go around back!" "The téléfériquel" "They're potting at us!" "Duck down!" "[Gunshots]" "[Gunshots Continue]" "[Glass Shatters]" "[Gunshots]" "[Groans]" "[Gunshots Continue]" "Get down there and draw his fire." "I'll get in over the roof." "Right."
