from Berlin. I'd Iike to freshen up a bit.

Perhaps sleep a few hours

before meeting General Carnaby.

KRAMER:
l'll see you to your quarters.

ROSEMEYER:
Thank you.

The meeting will be ready

whenever you wish.

ROSEMEYER:

Tell me....

[MEN LAUGHING]

[VEHlCLE APPROACHING]

GUARD:

Show me your papers.

Right.

I've written her many times

of course, but...

...with so many troops on leave in Berlin,

it was hardly likely she'd remember me.

But one always hopes

you're the one she'll neverforget.

Yeah. What was her name, anyway?

-Fred.

-Fred?

Oh, yeah, I remember Fred, yeah.

She was a short little redhead.

We'll try this one behind us.

When you get inside, circuIate around.

Keep your ears open for anything

about General Carnaby.

We meet back here

in half an hour. All right.

[BAND PLAYING POLKA MUSIC]

SCHAFFER:

Two beers.

[LAUGHlNG]

Ah.

See you later.

Anything else needed here? Oh.

And who might you be,

my pretty alpine rose?

-Heidi. Stop, major. l've got work.

-There's no more important work...

...than entertaining

the soldiers ofthe fatherland.

-Shall I sing you a song?

-I hear too much singing.

Oh, very well, then. l'll whistle.

It goes like this:

[WHISTLlNG]

[LAUGHlNG]

I bet you have

a beautiful singing voice too.

Thank you.

Be in the woodshed in five minutes.

Now slap me across the face

as hard as you can.

Oh!

OFFlCER:

Major...

...your conduct does not become

an officer ofthe Wehrmacht.

Herr Major, when you taIk to me.

Major Bernd Himmler.

Does the name mean anything to you?

I advise you to mind

your own business in future.

Is that understood?

-Cognac.

-Make that two.

I don't suppose you found out anything

about General Carnaby.

I didn't get around to that. Thank you.

What were you and that major

talking about?

I toId him I was Himmler's brother.

Yeah, l could see why that would

shake him up a little.

More than a little, I should think.

Keep an eye on things. l'll be back.

Take your clothes off.

-But l--

-Don't argue. Take your clothes off.

MARY:

All right.

Now, relax. I didn't mean it that way.

You are going up to the castle tonight as--

Well, yes, as a domestic.

How? Naked?

Not a bad idea, but it's a bit obvious.

There's an acute staffshortage in Germany

and the Schloss Adler is no exception.

You're the type they're looking for:

young, intelligent, good-looking...

...and as we both know,

not entirely without humor.

You must be mad.

If l wasn't, what would I be doing

in this job?

Now listen very carefully.

You're supposed to arrive on a bus

from Steingaden in about 20 minutes.

Your name is Maria Schenk.

You come from the Rhineland.
