They're coming, sir.

[Hitler]... mutig und kuehn die

Pfeiffer, see what's the matter

with that dog! Pfeiffer!

[Hitler]

...groesserer zahl dieser fuehrung...

angeschlossen und unterstellt.

I say, look!

There's something frightfully wrong!

- J saw him put something

in his mouth. Then he-

- [Zweig] What was it?

- He said it was an aspirin.

- Aspirin! Where would he get aspirin?

And then he had a sort of fit.

His heart's hardly beating!

You're a stupid English swine!

If he's taken poison,

if he's dead, I'll-

[Crowd Cheering]

Where is Obersturmfuehrer Zweig?

He's upstairs.

He told me to go see about that dog.

You imbecile!

Get back up there!

All right, you blighters!

Take off the uniform.

Tie him up.

I say, old boy.

You can't do that, you know.

[Hitler On Radio]

Von ihnen wird mehr gefordert als von-

- Get on with it, man!

- Sorry.

- Hurry up!

...den millionen der

uebrigen volksgenossen.

[Denistoun] We stole Hoff's car,

a big, black brute of a Mercedes...

and heading for Stuttgart,

drove all night.

One thought cheered us.

They couldn't broadcast a general

alarm for two Englishmen...

without tipping off

the British embassy.

Jt would have to be

a private manhunt.

However, sooner or later,

we knew we'd have to scupper the car.

So shortly after dawn-

- Well, here's where we separate.

- Right, sir.

Now listen carefully. First thing

you must do is get rid of that uniform.

Get some other clothes. You'll probably

have to steal them, understand?

- Perfectly.

- Then make your way to Esbach,

near Freiburg.

Esbach, remember.

And J'll join you there.

Now here's the thing.

Whoever gets to Esbach first...

marks the road signpost

to Freiburg with three dots...

and then waits for the other.

Is that clear?

Quite. Three dots

on the signpost to Freiburg.

Yes. Then we'll carry on

from where we left off.

- Contact Professor Krosigk.

- Yes. How about money?

Loads. Hoff was

absolutely stinking with it.

That's good.

Well, good luck to you.

I say, sir.

Thanks awfully, sir.

- I mean for everything.

You've been absolutely marvellous.

- Goodbye.

Yes, and thanks to Hoff's blunderings,

we've lost a good five hours.

Of course the man

is an idiot. Goodbye.

You are, you know,

with all your brains in your belly.

Hmm. The car was

last seen near Marbach.
