- Trouble?

- Don't ask. We on?

- Listen.

- Follow her lead,

and you'll be fine.

- Okay.

- Let's get to it.

- Here we go. Call it in, lad.

- Yes, Sir.

- It's Sarge, Waters,

or Sergeant, not Sir.

- Oh, I'm sorry, Sir.

Whiskey, seven, delta.

Whiskey, seven, delta.

Rat's in the trap. I

repeat: rat is in the trap.

- She be all right?

- She'll do. Is Norman set up?

- Not quite, Sergeant.

I was thinking maybe over there,

but I thought I'd

check in with you.

- Do I look like

your mom, Carter?

- No, Sir.

- Well, get that g*n

up there right away.

- Yes, Sarge. Norms.

- Come on, then, Marlena,

we've got a job to do.

- "Marlena"? Sometimes

you scare me, Norman.

- It's a Germanic name, Sarge.

Just trying to make our

guests feel at home.

- f*cking hell.

- Sarge.

How's that?

- You'll never

learn, will you, Reg.

- Heh.

- Don't understand, Sarge.

Ha, I just don't

know how he does it.

- Best not to ask, son. Our

Leach moves in nefarious ways.

- Oi. What's that mean?

- Ah, the Jerries have

come to call, lads.

Stir your stumps.

Where's Harris?

That way.

- f*ck sake, Fred, put it away.

- Sorry, Sarge. When you

got to go and all that.

- Oh, can ya at

least try and hold it in

for the next 20

minutes, all right?

- Don't worry,

Sarge. We got this.

Best of the best and all that.

- Yep, just try

not to die, yeah?

- Mm.

- This is gonna be tight.

- Mason, you're late.

- Sorry, Sir, had a

little trouble with

our French comrades.

Target will be with us

in less than a minute.

- Will they do, Mason?

- Sir?

- This ramshackle lot.

I mean, are they really

the best you could find?

- Work with what

you've got, Sir.

- Not the command I'd

hoped for, not at all.

- Sir, the target.

- Ah, yes, of course,

have Waters call it in.

- I've already taken

the liberty, Sir.

- Of course, you

did.

- And Sir, may I suggest

that when this kicks

off it might be best

if you just stay

back, just in case.

- Just in case of what?

- So that you can direct

the battle, marshal the men,

if you get my meaning, Sir.

- Thank you,

Sergeant Mason.

Yes, I believe I do

get your meaning.

May I remind you that

this is my operation?

The plan is good and

will go like clockwork,

assuming that you and your

men follow your orders.

Now, do you get my

meaning, Sergeant?

- Yes, Sir, don't worry about

the lads. They know the job.

- Good. See that

they stick to it.

Don't let me keep

you, Sergeant Mason.

- Sir.

- Ah.

- Gotta be something

pretty special.

Secret w*apon. Black

bag job, maybe?

- Nah, mate, I got a look at

the Henry's map last night.

There's a German garrison less

than 15 miles down the road.

- So?

- I reckon the brass wants

to hit 'em where it hurts.

When was the last time

you saw a wage packet?

Jerry's been getting paid on

the regular, though, I'll bet.

They're efficient, that lot.

- Wages truck.

- Reg, mate, I think we've

earned ourselves a bonus.

- Oh, bloody hell.

- You all right there, Sir?

- Quite alright,

thank you, Sergeant.

- Incoming.

- Why isn't she f*ring?

Take the bloody sh*t.

- She will when

she's ready, Sir.

Argh.

- Down, boy.

- What're we waiting for?

- She's just making safe, Sir.

- They're down. What

more do you need?

- Just give her a minute, Sir.

She knows what she's doing.

- I've had quite enough of this.

Can't sit around all day

waiting on bloody women.

Come on, gentlemen.

- Sir.

- We have a prize to secure.

- Reg, now's our chance.

- What?

- Payday.

- Leach. Leach, no.

Harris, Norman, uh,

don't bloody move.

If anyone comes round

that corner, hose 'em.

- Sarge.

- Sarge.

- He's toast.

- Aye, this one, too.

She's some yoke, ain't she?

Right, jump up.

Grab whatever you can.

Stuff your pockets.

I'll hold up the brass.

- Righto, boss.

Oh, f*ck.

- Reg, no.

- Ambush.

- Sneaky bastards.

- Argh. Urgh.

- Argh.

- Uh, urgh. Argh.

- Cover us!

- Argh.

- Argh.

- Leach.

- Argh.

- f*cking dozens of 'em.

- What do we do?

- Get him out of here.

f*cking have this.

- Argh.

- Ton fusil!

- Argh.

- Come

on, then, let's go.

- Argh.

- Urgh.

- Lost your nerve, Sergeant?

We have a job to do.

Come on, lads, follow me.

- Argh.

- Argh.

- Coming through.

- Gah. Urgh.

- Go, go, go.

- Urgh.

- Come on.

- Go, go, go, go,

go.

- Move.

- Go.

- Move.

- On me.

- Move.

- Go, go, go, go,

go.

- Move.

- Go.

- Move.

- On me.

- Go, go, go, go.

Go, go, go.

Come on. Come on.

Norman.

- Sarge.

- Get rid of him.

- Urgh, argh. Argh.

- Urgh, come on.

- Argh.

- Incoming.

Covering fire!

- Argh.

- Let's go.

- Gah. Gah.

- Go.

Go, go, go, go, go, go.

- Argh. Uh, argh, urgh.

- Argh.

- Go.

- Move.

Move back.

- Urgh, argh.

- Go, go, go.

- Over here.

- Argh, aw, oh,

ah, cheers, big man, urgh, aw.

- How you doing, lad?

- Oh, I reckon I'm

a goner, Sarge.

- Let's have a look. Hmm.

- How f*cked am I, Harry?

- On a scale of one to 10.

- Aye, sure, why not?

- I say somewhere

between Jessie-

- Ah?

- And big girl's blouse.

- Gah, big red balls!

- Sorry to report the

patient's gonna make it, Sarge.

- Really? Damn.

- What about the lieutenant?

- Do you feel like

going back for him? Hmm?

- No, Sarge.

- They bloody knew

we was coming.

- Eh, eh, leave it, Harris.

- It wasn't my people.

- Well, it wasn't bloody ours.

- Well, either

way, we're in trouble.

- Urgh.

- Radios went down with Waters.

We got no coms.

We're on our own.

Can you help us?

- Maybe, but uh, I'll need

time, something you don't have.

- Look, we're going

anywhere fast, are we?

- Okay, I'll send word.

- Ah.

- Dig in. Hold them

off as long as you can.

- Look, we can't hold

'em here. It's too open.

There's no space anywhere.

They'd be all over us.

- I think I know a place.

- No.

- Head north, past

the old church.

- Watch our back.

- Okay.

- Okay, let's move.

Carter with me.

- Oh.

Come on, boy.

- Urgh,

come on.

- Argh. Argh.

- Come on.

- Bruise and all.

- sh*t.

Urgh.

- Come on, lads.

Watch it. Watch it.

Come on.

Come on, come on.

- Argh.

- Let's go. Let's go.

- Argh.

- Come on.

Come on.

We're gonna have a brew there.

Think of that brew, huh?

You think of that

brew boys. Come on.

- Something ain't right.

- Like what?

- Those two. Doing all

the scouting for us?

- Yeah, they're our

guides. Remember, Fred?

- Maybe. I heard the resistance

cut the hair off traitors.

- What? You reckon she's

a collaborator?

Come on, mate, let's go.

- I'm just saying.

It ain't normal.

- A little bit further

and you can smell that brew.

- Oh, I'm okay, man.

Let's take a break, lads.

- Argh.

- Ah.

- Argh.

- Put your head against this.

- Ah.

- You all right?

- Ah.

- Here. We got you, lad.

We'll get that cup

of tea for ya, yeah?

- Ha.

- She's coming back in, Sarge.

- Oh yeah?

I know. I know.

They're catching up. How far?

- Uh-

- Huh?

- For us to get there,

about two hours with him.

For them to catch

us, about 30 minutes.

You know what we have to do.

- Sarge, we can't leave him.

- Look, Fred, gimme a

minute, yeah.

Just gimme a minute.

Leach, you still got that paint

you half-inched of Jonesie?

- I didn't nick nothing, Sarge.

That was fair and square.

- No, have you still got it?

- Norm's got it.

- Norm.

- Sarge.

- I'm gonna need you

and that paint, lad,

and someone find me some nails.

- How's

Norman know German?

- His mom works down

the docks.

- His mother's in the

import-export business.

Ain't that right, lad? Huh?

- That's right, Sarge.

- She welcomes 'em in and

waves 'em right back out again.

- All right, let's move out.

Quick as ya like, lads.

If this works, it won't

work for very long.

- There. Look.

- Really?

- That's your idea?

Not exactly secret, is it?

- Aye, catch yourself on.

First bloody place

the Jerries'll look.

- Easy, lads.

What d'you think, Sarge?

- Maybe she's right.

Hide in plain sight.

- It's a bit of a bloody gamble.

- It's what

you're best at, eh?

Got a better idea? Hmm?

Let's go.

- Come on, hop along.

- Know this place?

- The farmer was my cousin.

He was one of us once.

- So he'll help us?

- The SS caught him,

sh*t him in front of his

family to make an example,

and they slit his throat,

tied him to a farm post, and

used him as target practice.

Nobody lives here now.

- Hmm, she's cheerful.

- Let it rest.

- Hmm, shouldn't

we say something?

- Like what?

- Dunno, s-something,

just anything, just, uh-

- She'll be fine.

- Yeah, I know, but...

- But?

I don't know if you've

noticed, Carter,

but there's a w*r going on.

People do horrible

sh*t to each other.

Right now, we got

a messed-up girl

that's got a passion

for f*cking up Germans,

and that's exactly what we need.

We could do with a

few more like her.

We're gonna get outta this.

Come on.

- Ya see, the thing

ya have to understand

about the sergeant, Carter,

he's struggling

with a heavy burden.

- Really?

- Oh yeah.

You wouldn't know it

to just look at him,

but our Sergeant Mason is

carrying a deep dark secret.

- Tell me.

- Not sure now's the time.

- Aw, no, no, no, no,

no, no, nah, come on,

you can't say something like

that and leave me hanging.

- Hmm, yeah, alright.

You have to swear not

to tell no one, right?

- Uh, uh, course.

Listen, on my honor.

- Ya see, the thing

about the sarge.

- Yeah.

- He's a miserable

twat.

Come on, we better get shifting.

Don't want to be left behind.

- Come on, dickhead,

keep up, he-he-he. Argh.

- Clear.

- Urgh.

- Argh.

- Urgh.

- Argh.

Ha, thanks, mate.

- You'd do the same.

- Not a chance.

- Heh.

- Ha. Ah.

- Looks good.

- Safe enough.

- Psst, Sarge.

- Thought you said

this place was deserted.

- It was.

- Sarge.

- Smoke.

Turn around, and put

your f*cking hands up.

- What's he saying?

- Drop it.

- Drop it. Drop it.

Drop it. Drop it.

- Who is he?

- Ah, you're English.

- And you're not French.

- You observe well,

mademoiselle. I am Belgian.

- Frenchy.

Stand down, boys.

What you doing here?

- I could ask the same of you.

Today has not been a good

day for you, I think.

- You could say that.

- I have coffee.

Put down your weapons.

I'm thinking you need a drink.

- Milk and sugar?

- There is no

hope for the English.

- Sorry, mate. No hard feelings.

- What

you doing, Leach?

- Heh, heh, hey.

Argh, what d'ya think?

- Pretty neat.

You'll be doing a

palais glide in no time.

- Aye, chance'd be a fine thing.

Oh, been a few years

since me and Reg cut a rug

at the Hammersmith Palais.

Now, he, he was a

proper ladies' man.

- Yeah, did pretty

well for a short-arse.

- Aye, aye, he said that

was his secret w*apon.

Said they couldn't

see him coming.

Aye, guess his luck ran out.

- Yeah.

- Poor bastard.

- Tch, aye.

- Still, ha, think

this'll do the trick.

I think I could give you a

run for your money, old man.

- Ah, I'll let ya

have that one, mate.

You know I haven't run anywhere

since at least, ooh, 1935.

- Come on, then,

let's go for a dander.

- Let's.

- Argh.

- Easy.

- Mm-hmm. Argh.

Sarge. Argh.

- So what you doing here?

- This farm belonged to

the nephew of my friend.

He, uh, used the kiln

for the local village.

He make, uh, pots, bowls,

everything

but uh, no more.

- No, I heard.

So you're a potter.

- Uh, in some ways.

I understand enough.

These days, there's many

buildings needs repair,

and materials are hard to find,

so I make the bricks.

- You know, the

smoke gives you away.

- I had not thought of that,

but no one comes here now.

- Until now.

- Well, ha ha, yes. Ah.

- Listen,

we're gonna have

to take your truck.

- I cannot permit that.

- It wasn't a request.

- That truck is very

important to me.

The w*r has taken

much from my people.

Without that, there

is no shelter.

- You do understand

I could just take it.

- Yes, Sergeant, you could.

- But.

- But I am thinking you are

not that kind of soldier.

I'm right?

- Huh,

keep it.

I'd probably just crash

the bloody thing anyway.

Still haven't got used to being

on the wrong side of

the road and all that,

but it does mean we'll be

with yer for a while longer

till I figure something out.

- Captain Mason.

- Sergeant.

- Sergeant Mason, we are not

unsympathetic to your cause.

Actually, we are

very happy for help

from all our allies, but-

- But ya want us out of here.

- It would be for the best.

It's just that-

- The area's crawling

with Germans,

and they don't take kindly to

locals helping out the enemy.

I get it, yep.

Believe me, I wanna

be out of here, too,

but I'm pretty low

on options right now.

My guide has a

contact in Nabille.

She'll be with us shortly.

We'd be out of your

hair by morning.

- Nabille is a difficult

journey when there is no w*r.

Why would she go there now?

You trust her?

- What other options

do I have, eh?

- Let me see your map.

Here is Nabille. See?

- Of course.

- When were you last there?

- Uh, a week ago maybe.

- Ah, we went through two

days ago when we come here.

There is checkpoints

here and here

and patrols everywhere.

- She's the local.

- He clearly knows more than me.

- I do not think you

should go to Nabille.

- So what do we do, then?

- Here in the

North is a railway.

Uh, the Germans use

it for supplies.

Follow here, and you

may arrive at the river.

- Mm-hmm.

- And then, what?

- We find a boat.

- Mm-hmm.

- You can be out of

the danger in 36 hours.

- Or dead in three

if they catch us crossing

the railway line.

- Uh.

- You really want rid

of us, don't you? Hmm?

- You want me to lie?

- What do you think?

- What about him?

- What do

you reckon, Harris?

- Don't worry. He'll do.

- Okay.

- Much obliged for

your hospitality.

Hope it doesn't end

you up in trouble.

- Good luck, Sergeant.

I hope the journey is over soon.

- Ready?

- Yes, Sarge.

- Hold on. Where's Harris?

- Heh, guess.

- Harris,

get over here.

- Gimme a second, man.

- Can't it wait?

- When you get to my

age, you'll understand.

Oh, shithouse.

Stand tall.

- Leg it.

- Never been one for running.

- Covering fire.

- Urgh.

- Argh.

- Urgh.

- Harry.

- Fred. Fred, Fred.

Fred. f*ck.

- You bastards.

- Argh.

- Leach! Leave it!.

- Argh.

- Come on boy! Come on boy!

- We need to run.

- No chance. Leach ain't

gonna run anywhere.

There's open fields all around.

They'll cut us down

before we get to cover.

- Then we go for the truck.

- f*cking do it. Go.

- Come on.

- Do it.

- Aw, sh*t.

- There.

- Argh, f*ck you.

- Right, if you keep

their heads down,

I'll start her up, back

up to the barn, okay?

- Okay.

- Okay?

- Be quick.

- Argh.

sh*t.

Empty.

- Go. Go.

- Now, Annette. Now.

- Godspeed, mate.

- Uh.

- f*ck.

- Uh.

- Looks good.

- Should soak up

some of the damage

but won't hold them forever.

- a*mo?

- Just over 300 rounds,

enough to ruin their day.

- Good work.

- Sarge. Aw.

- Trouble?

- t*nk's dry.

- Why is nothing

ever bloody easy?

- What now?

- Do what we do best,

being a pain in the

arse for the Krauts.

- Oh, what's the plan.

- Smokes and frags,

half a dozen of each.

- Ooh, that's not a lot.

- Mason.

We have a problem.

- What's up?

- They appear to

be inviting their friends.

- Not exactly ideal.

- Hold on.

- Thought

we'd have more time

before they got the word out.

- No use crying

over spilled milk.

- I do not understand.

- Uh, it's an English thing.

- Here they come.

- Argh.

- Carter.

- With me.

- Covering fire.

- Go.

- Urgh.

- Argh.

- Ooh, lovely.

- Down. f*ck.

Light a match, Cart.

Ready?

- Gah.

- Move.

- Lergh, largh.

- Argh.

- Ah.

- You thinking of

taking a break, Sarge?

- Well, I could do with

one, even if they don't.

What's that old buzzard up to?

Ah, well, full marks

to the old boy, uh,

but I'm hoping he'll

give us a lift.

Missus doesn't like me

staying out too late.

Argh. Urgh.

- Bloody hell.

Uh, you got a girl

waiting for ya, Carter?

- What, Sarge? Oh, nah, nah.

No, not me, Sarge.

- Heh, well, it's probably best

all things considered, huh?

Ah, now, what about that lift?

- Horses. What about the horses?

- Well, that'd solve

the Leach problem, yeah.

You up for it?

- Yeah, yeah, smoke again?

- Ah, it worked

last time. Come on.

- Why aren't they just

blowing the hell out of us?

- How's your bowling arm, Leach?

- Ah, I'll manage, Sarge.

- And move.

- Uh, argh, argh. Argh.

Wait for it. Wait for it

Follow me, Leach.

One, two, Carter, go. Ready?

- Ready.

- Now.

Keep him covered.

- Ah, thank you.

- Be ready to move.

The Jerries'll be on us as

soon as they see the horses.

- What's the plan, boss?

- Grab your gear and hop

around the back of the barn.

The second Carter brings the

horses, get on one, and go.

Do not wait for us.

You have ridden before, right?

- Aye, wee bairn Sarge.

- And I don't mean

on Blackpool Beach.

Okay, stay low, and

hold the f*ck on.

- Yes, Sarge.

- Where is he?

- He's taking his time.

- He'll make it.

- There.

- sh*t.

- Oi, Frenchy, hang on.

- Well, can't say I blame him.

- You f*cking coward.

- Oh, merde!

- Where are you, Carter?

- I see him.

- Margh.

- sh*t.

- Gnargh.

- No.

- Uargh.

- Urgh.

- Urgh.

- Gargh.

- Urgh. Urgh.

- Hmph.

- Argh.

- Ines. No.

- Urgh.

- Huh-dah.

- Argh.

- Oh no, no, no.

No, no, animals.

- Nargh.

Argh.

Gah.

- Ah.

- Ah.

- Carter.

- Okay, come on,

come on, it's okay.

It's okay. It's okay.

It's okay. You're okay.

- You all right?

- Uh, yeah.

That was a bit hairy.

- They could've

easily overrun us by now.

It doesn't make sense.

- What happened in the stables?

- Sorry, Sarge.

- I guess the Frenchies

had somewhere better to be.

We had a bit of a

discussion about it.

- Well, it's good to

have you bad, Son.

Certainly timely.

- Thank you, Sarge. Thank you.

- How we doing?

- Badly.

If they keep this up,

I'll be out of

a*mo by nightfall,

and my Marlena,

she's a hungry lady.

- Damn.

- Yep.

I'm sorry. She was a tough one.

- Prison

camp'll do that to you.

- She was a prisoner?

- Yeah.

Germans tortured her for weeks,

took her hair.

But he still didn't break.

I'm sorry, too, about Harris.

- We will get out of here.

Just give the sarge

a bit of time.

He'll come up with something.

- I think we just

ran out of time.

- Sarge.

- Mortar. sh*t.

- That's f*cked it.

- What do we do, Sarge?

- Well, if we're really

quick off the mark.

We could have time

for a couple of hands.

- They're well-positioned,

and we're outta smoke.

There's no way we're

running through there

without running

straight into crossfire.

- So?

- So we get blown to sh*t,

or this old shed

falls down on us.

Either way, we're f*cked.

- I don't think I could

put it any more eloquently.

We are most royally f*cked.

Here we go.

- Hang on.

- What're they up to?

- I've absolutely no idea.

- Carter, tell your girlfriend

I need her to go for a nose.

Argh.

- Gah.

Argh.

- Argh.

Hmph.

- Urgh.

- Know how

to use that thing?

- She was teaching me.

- What're they up to?

- Arguing.

- Oh, that's not good.

New guy's a general.

Yeah, he's SS.

- SS?

- Mm-hmm.

Okay?

You know what they

did to your cousin.

Won't let them get anywhere

near you. Don't worry.

- You have no say in this.

This is between me and them.

I could k*ll him

now if I wished.

- No, no, no, no,

no, no, no, no, no,

no, no, no, no, no.

You can't do that.

- I do wish to,

but he must be the reason

why they're not

using the mortar yet,

so I won't k*ll him yet.

I'll tell Mason

about our new friend.

- Urgh, urgh, huh.

Urgh, ha.

Urgh.

Uh, huh, heh.

- Okay.

They coulda rolled

right through us by now.

I mean, not that I'm ungrateful,

but what's he up to, Sarge?

- Oh, I'm not about to

stay around to find out.

- Ooh.

- Ladies and gents.

- Don't say a f*cking word.

- We have ourselves our

very armoured car.

- Nice one, Norman,

but I still think

it needs something.

Ah.

Right, everyone,

this is our way out.

Grab your gear. Get ready.

- Mason.

- Oh, bloody hell,

what now? Carter.

- Look.

- Parlay. Really?

- I reckon they've heard

of our devastating

m*llitary supremacy, Sarge.

- It's that or

your cologne, Son.

- What do we do?

- Well, I guess we better

talk to them, right?

Let's see what he wants.

- Are you sure?

- Not one bit.

- General Horseler, the

2nd Panzer Division.

- SS? No need to

salute, General.

I'm nobody important.

Mason, William Dennis, Sergeant.

- Are you in charge?

- Since your lot

promoted me, yeah.

Gah, oh, uh, got ya.

That's better. Ah.

That's been giving me

jip for f*cking ages.

Alright, General, what's up?

- You are surrounded.

Half your platoon is dead,

and I assume you're

running low on amm*nit*on.

- So you want us to surrender.

- It would seem sensible, yes.

I'm sure you have as little

desire to be here as I do.

- You're not wrong there.

Trouble is

I've got even less desire to

spend the next couple of years

freezing my tits off in a

prison camp somewhere in Poland.

- So you refuse.

- Surprised?

- No, I've met your kind before,

and I must concur:

Poland is a terrible place.

- So.

- So if you permit it,

I would like to

collect our fallen.

And then, I'm afraid

we must proceed.

- All right, fair

enough. Help yourselves.

I'll give you an hour.

- My thanks.

- Right, we got an hour.

Grab your stuff. We're off.

- Uh, oi, what about the truce?

- That's only for

officers, I'm afraid, lad.

Unless you wanna wait around

ready for them to k*ll us,

this might be our only chance.

This is pretty simple.

On my mark, run like hell.

- Do us proud, Marlena.

- Oh, she'll do ya

proud all right.

- Fighting fire, lad. Hmm?

- Aye.

- Yeah?

- Ready.

- Hmm?

Now let's get the

f*ck out of here.

Now.

- Get down.

- sn*per.

- Argh.

- Take cover. Get the f*ck back.

Go.

- Uargh, uargh.

Rargh, get the f*ck off me.

Get off me, ruargh, argh.

Gah, oh, you shoulda

let me k*ll him.

- That's twice now. Twice.

You're gonna get us

all f*cking k*lled.

- Carter, listen, look, I'm-

Gah.

- Sarge.

- Get down.

- Argh. f*ck.

- Sarge, okay, it's okay.

- Argh.

- The lights.

- All right.

- Oh, my time

to play nurse, he says.

- Urgh, ha, Christ, not

you. Leave me to die.

- I can't see anything.

- No, he's still there.

- f*ck, we shoulda known.

- No, we had to do something.

- Nah, I still don't understand

why they haven't just

come for us, huh?

You'd expect 'em

to come at night.

That general,

something's stopping him.

- You keep an eye out this side.

I'll keep an eye out the front.

- Okay.

Carter.

Uh.

Cover me.

- No, no, no,

no, no, no, no, no, no.

Annette.

- Uh.

- Uh, uh. Um, uh.

Uh, urgh.

- Urgh.

- Tuh. Huh.

- Annette.

- Huh, huh, uh, clear.

- Who?

- Uh, dunno.

- You all right?

- Yeah.

- Well, maybe you should

go check on the others.

Alright, look, listen,

I can take it from here.

- No, stop making a fuss.

He's dead. I'm not, okay?

- Right. Right, sorry.

Uh, this is some kinda,

some kinda workshop.

- Yeah.

- Oh, damn.

- What?

- Gold.

- Wow, that's a lot.

- This, this is still hot.

Oh.

- Okay.

- Guess we know what

Monsieur Julien was up to.

- Yep.

- Sounded fun.

- Was a little hairy.

- Ha, lemme guess.

Yous two have found

us a magical tunnel

that'll whisk us

back to old Blighty.

- In a

manner of speaking.

- Huh?

- Frenchy's left you a present.

- Is this...

f*cking hell, d'yous know

how much this is worth?

- Not as much as the other

three dozen down there.

- What?

- Reckon you'll have

a bit of trouble

spending that around here, lad.

- Oh, there's nothing

yous can say right now

that's gonna ruin

the moment, Sarge.

- Anything else worthwhile?

- Yes, Sarge. I think Julien

was running some kinda racket.

- So that's what the

old buzzard was up to.

- sh*t.

- sh*t. Carter.

- Here they come, Sarge.

- If that's the way they

wanna start the morning, huh,

let's give 'em what they want.

Carter, Frenchy, do the honors.

Morning, gents.

Argh, argh.

- Argh, ah, looks like the

general's made his mind up.

- Think we should surrender now?

- Do you wanna?

- No, Sir.

- What about you two?

- f*ck that sh*t.

- Aye, what she said.

I've suddenly had my world of

possibilities expanded, Sarge,

and I'm not giving that

up for some wee dolt

in a snazzy outfit.

- Ah, so long as you're sure.

- Pretty banged up.

We're nearly out of a*mo.

- Well, we got a warehouse

full of the stuff.

The finest British

tradition, lad,

cobbling stuff together

and hoping it works.

- f*ck, what you

saying, dickheads?

- Argh.

- Gah.

Hmph. Gah.

- Argh.

- Whoo.

- Hoo-ha.

- Carter.

- Urgh, argh, hmm.

- Argh.

- Huh.

- Thank you.

Ya with us?

- Aye.

I was thinking maybe

we could take a break,

halftime, change ends.

- You alright.

- Pfft, I'm upright.

- Frankly, I don't know

how we've gotten this far.

I'm impressed.

Being out of a*mo's

a bitch, though.

- The Germans have plenty.

- Go and see what you can find.

- Uh, oh, urgh.

Urgh.

Argh.

Gah. Uh.

Gah, heh. Urgh.

- Well?

- Uh, look this.

Look at this.

- This was on Julien?

- It was.

- What is that?

Jesus Christ.

- Ooh, well, this just

got a bit more complicated.

- sh*t.

- Urgh.

- Oh no.

- Whoa, whoa,

whoa, whoa, whoa. Annette.

- She hurt?

- I don't know.

- sh*t.

- Why didn't she say?

- Leach, what you got left?

- Uh, I can sterilize

it with this.

- Do it. Do it now.

Quick, Leach.

- Stop getting so bloody

keen, ya bunch of gits.

- Aw, f*ck.

Those bloody bastards are

gearing up to come again.

They'll be on us in a minute.

- Mm-hmm.

- How is she?

- Think she's alright for now.

- But.

- We can't keep

doing this, Sarge.

All three of you are...

- Mm.

- Well, you're...

- f*cked?

- Yeah.

- Well, we could do the

surrendering thing, I suppose,

but it won't help.

They aren't gonna

bother hauling us off

to clog up one of

their hospitals.

It'll be four b*ll*ts and done.

- Hang on, Sarge.

I might have an idea.

- All right.

- Yeah. Yeah,

yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Yeah, it's about Monsieur Julien

and, uh, the, the SS

general and everything.

I've, I been thinking.

- Now, what have I

told you about that.

Thinking only lands

you in trouble.

- Heh. You got a plan, then?

- Do I f*ck?

I've been winging it

for the last two days.

Look where that's got us.

I told you I'm not your mum.

If you got something,

something you wanna try,

I'm right behind ya.

Lord knows I don't have

the strength to stop you

even if I wanted to.

You gonna tell me your big plan?

- Morning.

- D'you have a light?

- Mm.

- Not many left. Hmm?

- How's this work, then?

Never done it before.

- I believe

introductions are usual.

- General Horseler, the 2nd-

- SS. I heard.

- Lance Corporal Carter.

Uh, I'm not in

charge or anything,

but uh, the boss hasn't

been feeling too well

and needed a lie-down.

- You know, my soldiers

are not very happy with me

for agreeing to

this conversation.

- No?

- They want you

dead, all of you.

Not only have you k*lled

many of their comrades,

but they are proud men,

and by surviving, you

have humiliated them.

- And you

feel differently?

- I want this over as

quickly as possible,

so the sooner you surrender

the sooner I can go

about my business.

- Ah, well, that

certainly makes sense.

No point k*lling us

for the sake of it.

- Exactly.

Surrender your weapons

and you will be given

medical assistance

and escorted behind the lines.

- Yeah, that's very generous

of you, Sir, really.

We just don't quite fancy it.

- Corporal Carter,

you are not in a

position to bargain.

Look at the state you're in.

Surrender now before

you try my patience.

- I can't do that.

- Fool.

- Am I?

Because, see, from

where I'm standing,

you're the one looking foolish.

Ah, you're

rumbled, Herr General.

- I do not understand.

- You must've sh*t yourself

when you showed up last night.

I mean, I bet the last thing

you were expecting to find

is half the local garrison here

and us sat on top of

your little operation.

- Lance Corporal, I do not

know what you're talking about.

- Really? Well, let me

make it clear, then.

Gold, General,

melting down the spoils of

w*r to line your own pocket.

I mean, did you collect it

off the bodies yourself?

Or did you get your lads to

do that bit for you, General?

Julien knew.

- Julien?

- Monsieur Julien, the potter,

from Belgium, I believe,

or should I say

SS-Oberfuehrer Mueller,

your right-hand man.

I wonder what your

Wehrmacht comrades will say

when they learn their

boss is a grave robber.

- You have no proof.

- No?

- What do you want?

- Passage out of

here for me and my men.

- Ridiculous.

- Not really. I'm offering

you exactly what you want.

You want us out of here

before this lot rumble ya

and find your little stash,

and we really wanna go.

Alright, all we

need is some fuel,

and we'll be on our way.

Much obliged.

- You got balls bigger than

Sisyphus, Carter. Who knew?

- Yeah, can you tell

I was sh1tting myself?

- You were being

very British, heh.

- Transport's ready, Sarge,

first class, courtesy

of the fuehrer.

- Don't get cocky, Carter, yeah?

Just fill it up, and

let's get out of here

before they change their minds.

- f*ck sake. Ah.

- Urgh.

- Uh.

- Gah, huh.

- I think the love light's gone

outta their marriage, Sarge.

- You know, I

think you're right.

Such a shame.

- It's the kids

I feel sorry for.

- Ready to go?

- Aye, let's get

outta this sh*thole.

- Job, Carter.

- Thanks, Sarge. Okay.

- Miserable git.

Balls.

- Not happy, lad?

- I mean, we're alive.

I can't fault that, but

those poor bastards,

Reg, Harris, Norm,

Waters, Ines.

What do we have to

show for it all?

- Well, we got a

pile of bricks, yeah?

We could build an house.

Oi.

- Good quality,

lad. Take a look.

- Scheisse.

- Turns out Monsieur Julien

was pretty good at his job.

They were planning

for their retirement,

and the general weren't invited.

- Bloody hell, Sarge.

I mean, bloody hell, you knew.

- Carter figured it out.

Well, we thought we'd earned

ourselves a little bonus.

Don't you reckon?

- Yes, Sarge.
