[ Indistinct talking]

[Man speaking indistinctly
on P.A. ]

MAN: Halt.

[speaking German]

[ Man speaking indistinctly ]

DIETER:
We were given no warning.

We were given only five minutes
to pack.

WOMAN:
What did he say to you?

What did your father
say to you?

I don't speak English.

Not one of my questions
has been answered.

Not one!

I've said what I think
at each interrogation!

I've made my position clear
again and again.

However many times you ask me,
it's not gonna change anything.

It makes no difference
at all.

MAN: This way.

[Speaks German]

[ Indistinct talking]

[Man speaking indistinctly
on P.A. ]

WOMAN: Oh!

This way.

[Speaks French]

Tell me its name.

My name is Mr. Emmanuel.

Do you understand me now?

You're still
not going to talk to me?

That is not very polite.

But then, I understand --

Some things,
they must never be lost.

You didn't thank me.

Thank you.

Goodbye, little one.

Lotte!
[Shouting in German]

[ Heavy vehicles passing]

There's no need to be afraid.

I've just come
to take you to breakfast.

Frhstck, um, Hunger.

You must be starving.

My German's
not very good, I know.

But I think
you understand English.

Don't you?

A little, anyway.

Prison?

No.
You're not in prison.

There's a lot of rations
gone onto that plate.

If you eat one of those,
I'll tell you where we are.

Well, I'll tell you anyway.

You're in London.

Well, you're on the edge
of London.

In Enfield, to be exact.

Have a look.

If these are the center
of London,

well, then, we're here.

North.

And your father,
in case you were worrying,

will join you
in a couple of hours.

[speaking German]

MAN: The brigadier
wants to see you, sir.

Right.

Now, enjoy your breakfast.

[Tires screech ]

It's time we got out of here,
give Enfield back to them.

Burning stuff already?

We've got to start
getting rid of some of it.

We're drowning in files.

I thought you of all people

would be glad
to see the back of it,

having had to spend so much time
reading the bloody stuff.

And if we miss
something interesting?

Too bad.

So you've seen
the little girl?

Yes.

I've done
your babysitting for you.

Good.

I know you're meant to be
going on leave this week

and it's very overdue,
so this is not an order,

but I want you to do
a little more babysitting

of a rather
more important kind instead.

Who do you want me
to babysit?

The father.
And the little girl of course.

He could be
very important to us.

He's a scientist
or an engineer.

I never know
what the correct term is

when you're talking about
high speed.

A jet-plane man, anyway.

Brilliant, apparently.

He speaks quite good English.
Shouldn't be difficult.

Well, what's the problem?

He doesn't want to work with us.

We had to move fast
before the Russians got him.

They've grabbed nearly
a thousand scientists so far,

and the Americans are
grabbing them, and so are we.

We snatched him out of bed

in the middle of the night,
in fact,

though I'm sure we did it in
as civilized a way as possible.

Oh, of course.

But he's a little bit
irritated with us nonetheless.

Maintains he won't cooperate
with us under any circumstances.

You've got to make him
change his mind.

I'm getting demobbed
in six weeks,

which I'm sure
you haven't forgotten.

And that is definitely
going to happen, so...

This will only take six days.

If I were to do it,
it'll be under one condition.

Of course.

But you don't know where you're
gonna be doing it yet, do you?

We're using
the Connington Hotel.

It's a funny old dump but with
some surprisingly good perks.

I want you to take this German
and get him wining and dining

and anything else
he shows a real liking for

and completely turn him around
using the hotel.

In six days?

The morons from MI19 are eager
to get their hands on him

and give him
their full treatment,

as if shining lights in his eyes

and not letting him
get any sleep

is gonna make him like us.

I've told him they can't
have him for a few days -- six.

I imagine your condition is

you want to run it
exactly how you like.

Yes, with nobody
breathing down my neck --

not from Ml5 or --

Or any other bloody outfit,
naturally.

Right.
So when do I start?

4:00 this afternoon,
back entrance to the hotel,

chap called Ringwood.

Oh, and we don't use uniforms
in the hotel,

so you'll have to
get out of that.

Only one thing matters.

Get him to work for us.
Doesn't matter how I do it.

That too, of course.

But most of all,
don't lose them

or let them slip away to
the Russians or the Americans.

[ Children shouting
indistinctly ]

MAN: Get you much closer
'round the front, sir.

No, no.
This is fine.

This is the entrance
that I need.

Thank you.

Where on earth
did you get that?

Must be the only toffee apples
in London.

[ Chuckles ]

[Shouting continues]

P kew!

[ Elevator bell dings]

There are all sorts
staying here, sir, yes.

Because it is quite cheap.

But they don't
all look like that.

Hello, sir.
You must be Captain Ferguson.

Or at least I hope you are?

I was given
a very loose description.

Yes.
You must be Ringwood.

Indeed, that's me, sir.

Do you want me to call somebody
to help you with your luggage?

I hardly think
that's necessary.

RINGWOOD: Yes, it's all
a bit gloomy down here.

Because of the bomb site,
they keep these boarded up.

Very different upstairs,
though.

The dust
doesn't reach there.

Quite a difference, isn't it?

Every building is gone on this
side, so it's bloody bright.

All this sun -- reminds me
of the Riviera sometimes.

Yes.

Not the only thing
that reminds one of the Riviera

around here, sir.

It's a funny old mausoleum,
this place.

But it does have
its compensations.

Now, if I can find
the right key...

This is your bedroom.
246.

Your office is directly
across the way here, sir.

[ Woman laughs]

Mm! [ Laughs]

Except of course it is
not your office really, sir.

You're gonna have to explain
that one to me, Ringwood.

So, you see, this is
our real operation.

The other office
is just for show

for anybody
who's pestering us.

We let them look at that one.

Who are these people
that are pestering you?

Well, somebody from the War
Crimes Unit was poking around,

but hopefully we've got rid
of them, fingers crossed.

They've got rather
different priorities to us,

haven't they, sir'?

It's our secret floor.

I think I can safely say nobody
in the hotel knows about it,

except for the two or three
that have to know, of course.

And the cleaners too,
naturally,

but they are
completely reliable.

And we have the capacity
to listen to several rooms

where we park people
we're interested in.

Can monitor who they're talking
to, what they're saying,

what they're thinking.

Yes, we did a lot of that
at Enfield,

at Trent Park,
with captured German officers.

The old methods are usually
the best, aren't they, sir'?

You've got
a hell of a lot of files.

They dumped
a lot of stuff on us.

Loads of interviews
from Germany.

Has anybody read them?

Good question.
Not quite sure about that, sir.

Here are your people, sir,
if you want to have a listen.

DIETER:
[Speaking German ]

He's very important, is he, sir'?

Yes.
He's a jet-plane man.

Whoever gets
the best jet engine, Ringwood,

wins whatever's
gonna happen next.

So we have to make sure
he designs it for us --

not the Americans
or the Russians, but us.

- Yes?
- Ah, hello.

I'm Callum Ferguson.
This is Mr. Ringwood.

Could we come in for a moment?

[Door closes]

So you're our jailers,
are you?

Well, I hope that's not gonna
happen, for both of our sakes.

It's not too bad in here,
is it?

Ah, well, at least it's clean.

No smell of --
smell of damp.

Ah, no springs sticking up
through the mattress.

Well, not on a first feel,
anyway.

And hello again.

Tell me, did you manage to eat
one of those sausages?

Was there something particular
you wanted to say to me?

Yes, as it happens.

I was hoping you both might
have dinner with me tonight.

- No, I don't think so.
- No?

No. Apart from everything,
we have nothing to wear.

I'm sure they don't
all dress for dinner

at this old place,
do they, Ringwood?

Not all of them.
No.

My daughter
has only one change of dress.

How is she expected to manage?

CALLUM: Well, we can't
have that, can we?

Mr. Ringwood will go shopping
for you very soon.

Won't he?

[Telephone ringing]

[ Footsteps]

- WOMAN: Sir'?
- She's here again.

Bloody woman
from the War Crimes Unit.

Brigadier Wainwright.
Remember me?

I certainly do, Miss Griffiths.

I've sent you rather a lot
of messages, so I thought --

You would try and snatch
a quick word with me?

- Exactly.
- Well, jump in, Miss Griffiths.

This is perfect timing
for a very quick word.

I've got an appointment
down at the camp

for which
I'm just a trifle late for.

I see you're getting rid
of some paperwork.

Oh, that's nothing.
It's just a little housekeeping.

Afew bills from the canteen.

I always try and drive myself,
Miss Griffiths.

Then I've only got myself to
blame for anything that happens.

We sent you some names.

Some names --
a lot of names.

WAINWRIGHTI Did you indeed?

Here we are.

I'm sorry, but I have a meeting
waiting for me now.

You must send me your list
again, Miss Griffiths.

I'm afraid
I don't recall getting it.

Been a pleasure.

Sir.

I know you're dealing with
all sorts of people

who are of interest to you.

I mean, not just scientists
and engineers

but German agents who know a lot
about the Russians,

and you need their cooperation.

I do realize that, sir.

I'm glad to hear that,
Miss Griffiths.

Nobody in the War Crimes Unit

wants to get
in the way of that, sir.

Or make things more difficult.

But you may be
bringing people over here

who did things during the war
that they need to answer for,

who are on our list.

You have your job to do,
Miss Griffiths. I understand.

Good.
Thank you, sir.

But our job concerns
matters of national security.

Getting the information we need
to protect this country,

that is our number one priority.

Now if you'll excuse me.

One other thing.

Excuse me, sir,

but with all the resources
you've got,

all those files you've compiled,

you may have information
on certain other names

who are of interest to us,
who are still at large,

and maybe those files
can help us track them down.

That couldn't be clearer,
Miss Griffiths.

What I suggest you do is this --

Send me the list again, and we
will do our best to be of help.

[Silverware clinking]

Blimey.

Not exactly buzzing in here,
is it'?

[ Children shouting
indistinctly ]

[Chamber music playing]

Well, Mr. Ringwood here
is clearly enjoying his.

Are you sure
you don't you want to see

if it tastes
better than it looks?

DIETER:
You must understand

the shock of suddenly
being seized in one's home

and brought here
doesn't make one hungry.

You know what happened?

People screaming at us.

[ Indistinct shouting ]

Guns pointed at our faces.

The British were "picking up,"
as they put it,

anybody they thought
might be useful.

Not just scientists.
Absolutely everybody.

Even an old couple who had
worked for a drinks company,

and you thought they might have
the secret formula

of the spicy alcoholic drink
that's very popular.

Well, that was
clearly a mistake.

The old couple
and the spicy drink.

No, no, no,
you're seizing everybody

who can give you an advantage.

Well, for the moment,
that's necessary.

In the present circumstances.

And then there is
this food here.

Really not at all bad.

This cabbage looks most strange.

She loves how her mother
used to cook cabbage,

with garlic and onions
and butter.

And when she died --
when my wife died --

our cook always cooked
the cabbage like that.

So you realize my daughter and I
won't be eating.

[Snaps fingers]

- Excuse me.
- MATRE D': Yes?

CALLUM: We would like
some more cabbage, please.

But this time cooked with onions
and garlic and -- and butter.

We can't do that, sir.
Not cabbage with onions.

You can't do
cabbage with onions?

You have an orchestra --
if one could call them that --

which allows you
to charge more

than the permitted
five shillings per head.

So is it too much to ask
for this cabbage?

It is, sir.
Yes.

And what about
a plate of onions?

Just a plate of onions
on the side.

And I could mush the onions
into the cabbage.

Would that be possible?

That would not be possible,
no, sir.

Are you sure about that?

I am sure about this,
yes, sir.

LEONARD: Um, what are you
doing in here?

Whoever you are,
you cannot come in here.

Would it be possible to cook
a portion of cabbage

with garlic, butter,
and onion'?

You mean Austrian cabbage?

It'll be extremely helpful to me
at this particular moment

if you could cook me a plateful
of Austrian cabbage.

LEONARD:
Who is this for'?

RINGWOOD:
Extraordinary-looking cabbage.

LEONARD: A lot of butter rations
went into that.

I will need to know
whose room.

Just put everything
on my room.

WOMAN:
Who is she, anyway?

She's really enjoying it.

Excuse me.

That smells
absolutely delightful.

What do I have to do
to get some too?

[Up-tempo drum music playing]

I think that might be round one
to us.

Don't you think, sir'?

I'm not sure about that.

Put them to bed, Ringwood.

Make sure there's somebody
outside their door at all times.

[American accent]
Can we help you?

No, no, no.
I just heard a noise.

Some drumming.
[ Chuckles ]

Well, you may be right.
It may be just noise.

You coming to the opening?

The -- The opening?

Well, they're doing
a great job of advertising

if people in the hotel
don't even know about it.

I see we can
really look forward to it

heaving down here
on Thursday.

Standing room only.

I'm sorry,
I've only just arrived.

So this was the basement bar,
was it?

Basement ballroom.

It's been closed
since the middle of the war.

We've been hired
for the grand opening.

But don't feel the need to come.
We can manage without you.

Huh!

Not even heard about it
in the hotel.

Oh, well,
I will definitely be there.

- I can assure you.
- You will, will you?

Well, you know,
it's a funny thing

about this hotel, isn't it?

I hear the army is using it.

Is that you?

Oh, don't worry.

I won't tell anybody.

You want to
join them up there?

Me? Oh...

No, no, no.
I, uh...

I play a little piano.

- Are you any good'?
- No, not at the moment.

Little out of practice.

You want us
to be the judge of that?

Definitely not, no.

EVA: All right.

All right, come on.
Come on, come on, come on.

[Music continues]

HAROLD: That cabbage
smelled absolutely delicious.

If you don't mind
my saying so.

It was delicious.
I had a taste.

I am jealous.

I failed to get any.

Next time I might try
storming the kitchen myself.

I recommend it, yes.
It works.

Then I may definitely try it.

If I ever come back here,
which is quite possible.

Do you hear that drumming?

I do.

Funny, isn't it,
that going on in the basement?

Used to be quite a lively spot
before the war, down there.

The basement ballroom.

If you'll excuse me, sir,
I have to --

Of course.
Forgive me.

I merely wanted to
congratulate you on the cabbage

and your triumph
over the maitre d'.

So are they all safely
tucked up in bed now?

They are, sir.

We have two people
in the passage

outside their door
all night.

And what about up here?

Is there someone up here
at all times listening in?

- That would be me.
- Right.

So if you could give me the file
you have on him, I'll take it.

And while you're at it,
I'll take some more files too.

Somebody ought to take a look at
them before we get rid of them.

Keep me occupied tonight.

Tonight, sir?
It is rather late.

Yes, but I don't
always need to sleep. Come on.

[ Telephone rings 1

Why is somebody calling now?

- Yes, hello?
- Call for Captain Ferguson.

- RUTH: Yes.
- Mr. Alex Lombard.

RUTH:
It's for you, sir.

They're putting through a call
that was made to your bedroom.

A Mr. Alex Lombard?

I thought this place
was supposed to be secret.

Seems the whole hotel knows.

Hello?

ALEX:
Cal, there you are.

What on earth are you doing

canceling dinner
with us tomorrow?

Things changed, unfortunately.

It's only for a few days, Alex.

There's just something
I have to do.

ALEX: But it can't wait
for a few days.

I so want you to meet her.

Alex, we haven't seen each other
in years.

I'm dying to meet her too.
Of course I am.

ALEX:
No, it definitely can't wait.

We'll meet for elevenses
tomorrow.

- That's what we should do.
- LOTTE: [ Wailing ]

I'm sure
you can get away for that.

At Fuller's in Bloomsbury Square
at 11:30.

Cal, did you hear me?

Yeah, no, I'll be there.

Alex, I have to go.
I'm sorry.

What is it?

I think you'd better
hear this, sir.

[ Wailing in German ]

She's yelling
that she wants to go home.

[ Knocking 1

MAN: I thought
maybe you weren't coming.

[ Woman moaning ecstatically ]

[Moaning continues]

[ Clattering 1

- Sorry.
- No, that's all right.

Doesn't look like
I woke you, though.

- No, you did n't.
- Can't sleep?

No, I was working.

You were about to say
that makes two of us.

No.
I wasn't.

Of course not.
Didn't enter your mind.

I really
wasn't gonna say that.

Well, thank you.

I'm afraid, sir, I can't
get them into breakfast, sir.

I've been trying
for well over an hour.

They seem absolutely to be
on hunger strike again, sir.

Right.

Good morning, you two.

You don't like
the breakfast here, I see?

We wish
to return to our rooms now.

Ah, in a minute.
Of course.

But I think I know where I can
find something you will eat.

Come on.
This way.

This is a little bit
of a guess,

but I believe you have
some toffee apples for sale.

We'll pay a very good price
for them.

The only hot toffee around,
and it's right on our doorstep.

Isn't that a bit of luck,
hmm?

She'll have one,
but only one.

You seem to think the way
to gel me working for you

is through
my daughter's stomach.

You can take care of it
from here, Ringwood?

I should go in there.

- It's well worth a visit.
- Thanks for the advice.

Or maybe
that's why you're here.

Not exactly.

I came to visit the hotel,
but then I saw you.

- Are you from T-Force?
- And who are you?

Sorry, I'm Kathy Griffiths,
from the War Crimes Unit.

Haven't answered
my question.

We know T-Force
is using the hotel

to entertain
people of interest,

so I just thought
you might be from T-Force.

If you're not, of course,
I've just given you

a rather interesting piece
of information.

And if I am?

Then I would ask you,

very politely,

if you could be of any help
to me getting into your records.

Somehow. I've been to Enfield,
of course, several times'

And they've been very slow.

Exactly.

Miss Griffiths, I'm so sorry.

I have an appointment
in a few minutes

which I really do have to keep.

[ Chuckling ] Okay'

Same old story.
You really are from T-Force.

No, I really do
have an urgent appointment.

See, my oldest friend
is home from Washington.

He's brought back a wife
with him,

and he wants me to meet her.

So you see, I have to go.
I can't miss that.

I'll give you this --

I never heard that excuse
from Brigadier Wainwright.

Come back to the hotel
at 4:00 tomorrow.

- We can have a meeting.
- A meeting?

Yes, a meeting.

ALEX: We're here!

Cal!

There you are.
How good to see you.

You're back at last, Alex!
I thought you were never coming.

I'm terribly sorry I'm late.

And this is Rachel.

Delighted to meet you.

[American accent ] And so am I
to meet you.

I've been really impatient
for this moment.

Oh, have you?

I keep on mentioning
my friend Cal.

Well, then I'm really sorry
I'm so late.

Well, we were too,
so it's perfect, isn't it?

Isn't it?

Well, unfortunately,
I can't stay.

I just came to tell you that.

You came to say
that you can't stay?

I have something
rather important to attend to

that I can't --

You haven't changed, Cal.
He hasn't changed a bit.

I can assure you
that I have.

This is really embarrassing

that I have to come and say
hello and goodbye like this,

but I got delayed coming here,

and I have to get back
at a certain time -

You're spending so long
making excuses,

you might as well sit down
with us while you make them.

Come on.
Tell us why you can't stay.

And besides, I have promised
myself an English ice cream.

I've told her
that's not a good idea at all.

Yes, Alex says
even before the war

it was the worst ice cream
in the world.

Come on, you've got to stay
and watch me taste one,

see what happens.

It is a very strange color.

We may well be
endangering our health.

No good
can come of this at all.

Cal is eating his.

Well, I'll eat
pretty much anything.

So, what is the really serious
work you're doing

that means that you can't stay?

Even though you have in fact
stayed quite a few minutes now.

Yes, I have to go.
You're absolutely right.

No, no, I-I didn't mean it.

Please.
Stay a moment longer.

Tell me about your work.

Well, yesterday I was given
a rather unexpected assignment.

An assignment.
How exciting.

Is it secret,
or can you tell us?

It's not particularly secret.

It's got to be a bit hush-hush.
Cal is in military intelligence.

He rounds up people
who might be of help to us.

So you are
in the secret service.

Oh, no, no, no, no.

We look down on them,
of course.

And it's not for much longer.

I'm about to get out.
I -- I can't wait, in fact.

ALEX:
I'm not surprised.

Cal had
the most extraordinary war.

While I was sitting comfortably
in Washington,

he saw a lot of action,
and he did intelligence.

He is both boffin and soldier.

So you're a war hero, are you?

I certainly am not.

So, what about
this secret assignment

that isn't really secret?

I'm looking after
a German scientist

who could be of great use.

I'm trying to make him happier.

And have you made him happier'?

Not quite, yet, no.

Funnily enough, it all seems
to be about food at the moment.

But of course.

Food is the most important thing
of all, bar nothing.

It's the greatest pleasure
by miles.

ALEX: Not sure that applies
to the Connington Hotel, though.

Spooky old place.

It's difficult to get good food
anywhere in town at the moment,

but at the Connington?

Ah, well, I'm working on that.

It's a strange place, though,
you're right.

As it happens,
there's the grand reopening

of the basement ballroom
tomorrow night.

Although no one
seems to know about it.

Then we must come.

- No, we must.
- Really, darling?

I think we have an engagement
tomorrow night.

Then we'll change it.

I hardly think
it'll be worth it.

Well, it sounds
very intriguing to me.

And we can see how you've got on
with your assignment,

see if you've triumphed yet.

-[ Harp music playing]
-[ Wailing]

Lotte.
[Speaking German]

LOTTE:
[Wailing in German]

Where have you been, sir'?

I got unexpectedly delayed.

You've been able to manage,
haven't you, Ringwood?

No, sir.

[Wailing in German]

I've tried
to make her sit still,

but she is a very unhappy child
who wants to go home.

So you thought you'd let her
behave like a toddler instead?

How would you behave
if you were her'?

Would you be sitting quietly
as if everything was normal?

CALLUM: Yes, look.

You've got everybody looking
at you now, haven't you, Lotte?

[Wailing continues]

Now, you see that man
over there'?

Do you see him?

Yes, well, he's watching us,
isn't he?

[Whimpering 1

And maybe, just as I am here
to keep an eye on you,

he's here to keep an eye on me.

What do you think?

That would be interesting,
wouldn't it?

If that was what he was doing.

[Whimpering stops]

Hello again.

I just don't seem to be able to
keep away, do I?

This is my ward, Lucy.

Ah, hello.
I'm Callum Ferguson.

How do you do?

I just thought we should be
properly introduced.

Absolutely.
How rude of me.

Harold Lindsay-Jones.

We met last night
over some cabbage.

She's quite right,
your friend -- the little girl.

This music should not be endured
in silence.

She has quietened down
a bit now, I hope.

My apologies
for any disturbance.

Yes.

Yesterday she was
a little angel

in that coat
that was too big for her.

One night in this hotel,
and look what happens.

Miss Griffiths,
could you come up here?

You do realize we're losing
two more of them next week.

Two people are going?

I thought it was only one.

No, two.

And they want to move us
into a smaller office,

but I'm resisting that

because it's a particularly
horrible room.

I just wanted you to know,
we probably don't have much time

before they start
winding us down.

Yes, Miss Clarkson,
I know time is short.

Have you had any luck
with T-Force'?

Or any of them, in fact?

Not in Enfield.
Not yet.

They're under their own pressure
to come up with results there.

They don't consider us
a priority.

I do have a lead
at the Connington.

There's somebody new there.
From T-Force.

It would be interesting to know,
once and for all,

how much information
they've got stored there.

Yes.
I fully expect to find that out.

LOTTE: [ Wailing 1

- I think, sir --
- Shh.

We can't just let this go on

without doing something, sir,
surely.

This is awful, sir,
listening to this.

Right.
Listening to it.

It certainly is.

Maybe we should call a doctor,
get him to give her something.

No doctor.
We don't need a doctor.

[Wailing continues]

[Wailing continues]

So these wardens told you
what was happening, did they?

They did.

This cannot go on.
My daughter cannot stay here.

As you can see,
she has to go back to Germany.

This is the only thing
that can be done.

Let me go home!

Please! Please!

Let me go home!

So, what are you gonna do
about it?

LOTTE:
I want to go home!

I'm not sure yet.

All I know is that I'm not
having the greatest success

giving you
the time of your life here.

Lotte, go over there.

Get over there!

Now I'm gonna
show you something

that maybe you didn't know
was here.

One less listening device.

Now, we're gonna get rid of
every single one.

Are you gonna help me?

I'm gonna dig out
every single one.

Ah.
Just as I thought.

Here's another one.

And another one.
Amazing, isn't it?

[ Clattering ]

There's another one here,
surprisingly.

Brilliant.

Oh, come on.

I'm sure there'll be a big one
behind here.

Don't you?

[Gruntingl

Ah, let's see.

Ha ha!

Ah, look at that.

Just as I thought.
A nice big one.

Now what do we do?

I expect you think the sound of
one city is much like another.

What you don't realize is,
even for me,

being here after all that
has happened is terrifying.

The sound
of a strange city at night.

You don't know
what's coming for you.

The sounds of this hotel too.

It gives one nightmares.

I will not work for you.

I will not work
for the British government.

I was gonna leave all of this

until at least we had a chance
to get to know each other.

But you must realize

that there is nothing I won't do
to make you cooperate.

You may think this is
just another job for me, but...

No, I have my own
personal reasons for being here.

DIETER: Because of the war,
obviously?

CALLUM: No' Not in the way
that you might think.

See, I am an engineer,
like yourself.

And I worked for some
brilliant people before the war.

All sorts of things happened.

Wonderful work

was wasted,

which would have made us
so much more powerful.

We should never have been
so badly equipped

when the war broke out.

No, and it's not
gonna happen again.

So when you're ready
to talk,

I will tell you
everything that happened,

the enormous mistakes
that were made.

So you see,
there is nothing I won't do

to make this work.

Nothing.

Including this.

[Feedback blares,
static crack/es ]

[ Steam whistle blows]

Well, now we really are alone.

JULIA:
So, what's it been today?

Can't sleep?

Or have you been having fun?

Little bit of work.

Working again?

So you've done away with
the need for sleep, have you?

Well, maybe for the moment.

No sleep at all?

It's a little bit exhausting
even just standing next to you.

You wouldn't have thought

there'd be anything left
for them to find.

Maybe as they dig through
all the rubble,

they find new layers.

[Fire crackling]

[Fire crackling,
birds chirping ]

[ Gun cocks ]

- Here already, sir?
- I am-.

But I'm about to leave you
in charge again.

Look, I have one other
appointment to attend to.

I won't be long.

They shouldn't be
too much trouble today.

And, uh, here are
some clothing coupons.

- Get Lotte a new dress.
- Right.

Sir, what on earth
was last night about?

Trying to get a result.

That's what.

MAN:
Where are you going?

What did you say?

I said, "Where are you going?"

I'm sorry,
do -- do we know each other?

We do.
Or at least I know you.

Even though I'm quite sure
we've never met.

Brigadier Wainwright wants
to know how you're getting on.

If he does,
then I'll let him know.

Personally.

Now, if you'll excuse me,
I have an urgent appointment.

Going to see a woman, are you?

Is that why
you're leaving the hotel?

No, as it happens,
I'm gonna go and see my brother.

Oh, your brother.

And that's urgent, is it?

Yes.

You see, I can't be late.

He tends to get
a little wound up if I'm late.

You know, it isn't anybody at
T-Force you have to worry about.

It's me.

I didn't want you put on this,
even for a few days,

because you think you can
make up the rules, don't you?

And now you're not even
listening to me.

Not very closely, no.

You don't want to lose them,
I promise you.

You really don't want to find
you've lost them.

[Coins clinking]

Masses of money, you see?
Masses.

I don't know
what you've been worried about.

This is good for two more rounds
at least.

And my brothers coming
any moment. He'll top me up.

-[ Men shouting indistinctly ]
- I will be overflowing.

MAN:
...Raven Thomson speak!

Union of British Free Men!

Come to tonight's meeting!
7:00!

Meeting tonight!
Come and hear all about it!

Can you believe that?

Look at the lumbering bastards.

Blackshirts.
They're crawling back already.

Some of them even still
call themselves Blackshirts

as if the war
had never happened.

MAN:
Union of British Free Men!

Meeting tonight!

Come and hear
Raven Thomson speak!

Get out of here,
you fuckers!

MAN:
Union of British Free Men!

Just go away,
or I'll kill you all!

Just keep on going!

Go on! Go!

Keep going!

Cal.

They are lucky.

They are very lucky that I'm not
in the mood for action.

What are you doing?
What is all this noise?

I'm only a few minutes late.

And I'm lighting up
the street already.

You bastard.
I thought you weren't coming.

Well, I hope you're not gonna
make me wish that I hadn't.

- Of course not.
- Yeah, well, good.

Uh, where are you going?

What do you mean?
I'm gonna get a drink.

Oh, no. Don't want you getting
too comfortable in there.

- We're going shopping.
- Shopping'? What, around here?

Yes, I need some new shoes.
Quality shoes.

Where better to get them?

Oh ho ho.

You are in for a treat today,
I promise.

Am I?
And where are we going, Victor'?

Oh, only the best store
in the world.

You'll be tempted
by everything.

Oh, did you see the doctor,
Victor'?

Yes, I did indeed.

He said I was
in a splendid condition.

That I'd made a remarkable
recovery from my troubles,

that I'm an example to others
and am now a model citizen.

And he gave you something
for your headaches, did he?

My headaches are gone.

Oh, gloriously empty up here.

No pain, no worries,
no thoughts of any kind.

You need the medicine
in case they come back.

- What?
- The headaches.

Look, you know
how strong they can be.

They won't come back.

If I do enough shopping,
they won't come back.

[Train rumbling]

[ Steam whistle blows]

See? Everything you could have
ever wanted.

It's all here.

Yeah, all at
black-market prices, Victor.

Look at this.
This is peroxide.

- Five, please.
- What do you need five for'?

Five.
And marmalade.

Yeah, we really need
some of that.

That's the nearest anyone's
gonna get to real oranges

for years probably.

[ Steam whistle blows]

VICTOR: Guns or shoes?

What do you think?

Probably need shoes
a little more,

but ifs a tough choice, though.

You love a good gun,
don't you?

I've got enough guns,
thank you.

- Come on.
- Really, Victor'?

I told you
this was the place for shoes.

Why don't you get some?

Good shoes
are the answer to everything.

MAN: Thank you, sir.

The vermin are back.

I'm certainly
not gonna let them go shopping.

[ Steam whistle blows]

Fucking Blackshirt.

Blackshirts want to go shopping,
do they?

You fucking Blackshirt!

[ Shouts indistinctly]

They won't come shopping again
in a hurry.

What happened?
You all right?

Yes.
Just gonna clean myself up.

[Train rumbling]

Victor!

Cal, don't kill him.

[Gasps]

Don't want to kill him, Cal.

No need to kill him.

[Man gasping]

Go fuck off!

Fuck off!

[ Steam whistle blows]

Thought I'd best stop you.

I'd have loved to see you
kill him,

but in the end it might have
spoiled our day a bit.

[ Both chuckle]

Oh, this is true.

But if anyone's gonna kill you,
Victor,

it's not gonna be a Blackshirt.

Oh!

VICTOR: The shopping.

We've lost all the shopping.

Cor!

I've got to get some of it back
at least.

- Here are the shoes!
-[ Laughs]

What's happened?

They haven't gone missing
have they?

No, sir. They're being
happily looked after.

Well, then, what's the matter?

Oh, that?
That's nothing.

I've just been fishing.

And there's a lady
waiting for you upstairs, sir.

I think she may be
from the War Crimes Unit.

I know.
Don't worry about it.

They seem to like it
in there, sir.

I think ifs going to be
an American kind of meal, sir,

for the grand reopening.

There you are.

I thought you weren't
going to turn up.

I may be from T-Force,
but I always keep appointments.

They told me to wait up here,

that this is
where your office is?

Oh.
So it is.

- How did you get like that?
- Oh, that?

Oh, I just took a little trip
to the suburbs.

Had to do some shopping.
Ran into some Blackshirts.

Right, well, here's the office.

All the files.

As you can see,
there's not much here really

- This is your office?
- For the moment.

We're looking after
a German aeronautical engineer

and his daughter.

That's all we're doing here.

You don't need a big office
for that.

I'll see if I can get permission
to get you his file,

but I doubt
he's one of the people

that you're interested in.

I'm always interested
in seeing files.

I'm surprised
that you haven't got a lot more.

Sure you haven't got
any other rooms in the hotel

you've forgotten about?

And this is where I'm sleeping,
right here.

[ Door unlocks]

You can come into my bedroom
if you like,

but I don'! have any more files.

I don't think I need
to search your bedroom, no.

Though I doubt that's where
you'd keep a lot of files.

Ahh.

They delivered
my dinner jacket.

Good.

I need this
for the grand reopening

of the basement ballroom
tonight.

I do hope
that they get an audience.

Now, if you'll excuse me,
I ought to be getting ready.

That's it?
That was our meeting, was it?

I know everyone on T-Force

thinks the War Crimes Unit
belongs in Germany

with the leaders
who are going on trial there,

and that's the end
of the story.

But there are in fact
a lot of other people

it's right
to be concerned about,

people who aren't famous
who are guilty of war crimes

and they need to be found.

Isn't that true?

Of course.

I'll tell you what I'll do,
Miss Griffiths.

If you give me a list of names

of all the people
that you're interested in,

I will personally make sure that
they're checked at Enfield.

- Will you?
- What is that supposed to mean?

It means I don't know
how seriously to take that.

A lot of people on T-Force

seem to think
we're on different sides.

- Do they?
- Yes.

You're bringing over Germans

who you think are vital
for our national security,

and one or two of them
may be the same people

that we're trying to catch.

But you don't know
what I think.

So that's a promise,
is it, then?

- You checking the names?
- Yes.

It is a firm undertaking.

[ Instruments tuning]

Yo, boys.

Looky here.

A gift from a fan
on a US air base here.

And you'll never guess
what it is.

[ Laughter]

I'm not sure this is right,

but then, how does one dress
for a really spooky place?

You look wonderful, my dear,
and that's all that matters.

I'm so proud of you.

[Swing music playing]

-[ Swing music continues]
-[ Playing slow piano music]

You play very well.

I -- I just wanted to see
if it was in tune.

And it is.
What was the piece?

I forget what it's called.

I picked it up somewhere.
Heard somebody playing it once.

So you wrote it, did you?

No, no, no, no.
Absolutely not.

No, no.
I -- I don't write music.

It was a friend.

A friend.
I see.

They spent a great deal of money
on this room before the war.

There were always a lot of

extremely beautiful women
in this room,

and none of them had any idea
what was coming.

Amazing how unprepared we were.

Still surprises me
how that was possible.

Yes.

Are you saying yes
because you agree,

or are you simply saying yes?

Yes, I agree.

Few people could disagree
with that, could they?

Oh, you're very wrong
about that.

Some people want to protect
themselves against blame

in the face of everything.

You're from T-Force,
aren't you?

Oh, come on. Surely you can
tell me that, can't you?

You are saved by my ward.

Doesn't she look good?

Say hello to the pianist.

Maybe even the composer.

Hello.

HAROLD: We're going
to the basement after dinner.

Not going to risk the food
down there.

I have a feeling
everybody will be doing that.

The chef has decided on
an American feel

and he's serving
corn on the cob,

quite forgetting that
we only feed that to cattle

in this country.

I Someday, baby I

I Change your mind I

I Someday, baby I

I You gonna change your mind I

J' Bad luck, baby I

J' 'Cause I'll be fine I

I Bad choice, baby I

J' I'll be fine I

[Swing music continues]

RACHEL: My.

Alex, this is not spooky
at all.

Little bit quiet, maybe.

Well, apart from the music.

You must be the German family.

How delightful
to meet you both.

Is that a new dress?

Were the boys in charge
of getting that?

Well, whatever happens,

I think you and I
need to go shopping, don't you?

I'll help you
get a real dress.

[Swing music playing]

[song ends]

How long we got to wail before
they start crawling down here?

Bring me one of
them oranges, boys.

I am certainly not gonna
kill myself for this lot.

MAN: Good lord.

You want a piece of this,
do you?

[Woman gasps]

-[ Swing music playing]
-[ indistinct conversations]

[Conversations stop]

- WOMAN: Oh!
-[ Woman gasps]

EVA:
I need a sharp knife.

Well, come on downstairs,
and you can have one each.

It's hard to believe,
but you can.

You just don't know what's
going on down there, do you?

[ Indistinct conversations]

Come on.
You must come with us.

I put Lotte to bed,
and then I will see.

[Swing music continues]

HAROLD: All of us being fed
by an American singer.

Nobody would've dreamt
that would happen to us.

J' I try to be good,
but, baby, it's not for me I

J' Well, I try to be good,
but, baby, it's not for me I

DIETER:
[Speaking German]

J' You got to take me
from my head down to my toes I

J' Shout it out loud,
loud as the trumpet blows I

J' I shout it out loud,
loud as the trumpet blows I

J' I'm gonna play some music I

J'And dance
till the break of day I

This is forbidden music
for me.

We were never allowed
to listen to this music.

It was always
completely forbidden.

[Swing music continues]

- MAN: Cigarette?
- WOMAN: Thank you.

There you are.

[Swing music continues]

J' Yes, I try to be good,
but, baby, it's not for me I

J' Well, I said I try to be good,
but, baby, it's not for me J'

J' No use pretending
I'm who you want me to be I

J' Got a sweet smile,
but I ain't your honey roll I

J' Got a smile,
but I ain't your honey roll I

J' You got to take me
from my head down to my toes I

I just thought I saw...

No, it can't have been.
I must be seeing things.

It must be the shock of eating
my first orange for so long.

Oh, it is you.
My little one.

How nice to meet you again.

Are you lost?

No.
I'm not lost.

Not very much.

Just a little lost?

Then let me...

Let me take you back
to your room.
