Irrefutable! Understood?

Fear not. You'll get your proof,

and soon.

Ouch, it's getting complicated.

But despite that you continued

even with this informer on your heels?

Nothing so easy, nothing so simple.

Caution, discipline, secrecy,

absolute secrecy.

Good evening Louis,

forgive our lateness

but there's something new

and a change to our plans.

Good evening everyone.

Five of you were to be ready to leave

on Sunday night.

- Jules.

- My group is ready, right away.

Perfect, you'll leave this very night

and not Sunday.

Michel is becoming

increasingly suspicious.

He's even wary

of his friend Guillaume.

That beats everything!

The hunter hunted.

So, departure.

Embarkation at 2am in the morning.

- I'm leaving with them.

- That's what we all want.

But, Armand, the work

that you do here is vital.

Keeping watch over

the goods dispatched on ships,

you call that a job

of vital importance?

The British Admiralty

is of that opinion,

your reports go out first

in our secret broadcasts

to our friends on the outside.

Your job as a pointer

allows you

to nose around everywhere

without suspicion.

I understand, I'll stay.

So, my friends, let's be clear,

under no circumstances

are you to move from here.

We'll organise your luggage,

a guide will come and get you

from here at...

At exactly midnight.

Understood? Is that clear?

You are not to move.

They think we're at the cinema.

Goodnight, gentlemen.

Good evening Clarus.

Guillaud, thank you for all you have done.

I'll lie low a while.

Goodbye Jules.

Goodbye Pierre.

Georges.

Yes?

Ah, you are very lucky to be leaving,

I envy you.

Mr Clarus.

I'd like to say goodbye to someone.

My fiance.

It's close by, just for a moment.

No, it's impossible.

Go. Be quick.

Ha! Sentimental fool that I was.

Dear Pierre would never know

that his farewell kisses

were to change the entire

course of our adventure.

Oh darling, at last.

I thought you'd never come.

- What's wrong?

- I almost didn't come. I shouldn't have.

But I had to see you, so Clarus...

Clarus? What are you saying?

Yvonne, darling. Listen to me.

You know that some

are escaping the island

to join the allied forces.

Well, Clarus is in charge

of this movement

and me...

I didn't tell you before

because I didn't want to upset you...

Pierrot.

Yes, darling. I'm going too.

I have to.

But our wedding, it's all arranged!

You won't be back within a month!

Possibly years.

Pierrot, think it over.

Think what it would mean for us!

All our happiness, all our lives.

You can't do this to me.

You're not allowed.

Yvonne, darling.

I love you, you know that.

Our love is my life,

but we're not free.

A country lives by the value and soul
