All language subtitles for Secret Army S3E06 - Prisoner

Here, what's happening?
-For service in the Fatherland.

Put him in the car.

Good morning.

The Gestapo are making raids
every day. This is no time for games.

You were told I was coming.

Yes, we were told
Major Bradley,

but not when, nor that you'd
be arriving like this.

There are German patrols
all over the town.

You expect me to stand
on the doorstep until you decided to open?

Here, you can put these away.
-Put them away yourself.

How did you get here?
-Well, not by parachute.

No, those days are almost over.

Our troops are chopping up the
remnants of the 7th Army,

so it was easier to come through the
German lines as one of the remnants.

I can pass as a German.
-That doesn't surprise me.

Have you come to take over?
-From Albert? - Yes.

In the final days? To take all the glory?

There may be no glory at all for anyone.

Where is Albert?
-You mean they didn't tell you?

They told me he was in prison.
Is he still there? -Yes.

So, you have taken over -- temporarily?
-Yes, I'm in charge.

I'm staying that way until Albert returns.
-Well, I'm sure you're very good at it.

Why is Albert in jail?
-They think he killed his wife.

Did he?

Did he?
-No.

Then why do they think he did?
-I don't know.

I'm here to discover
what's happening to Lifeline.

Yes, of course you are Major.

Where is Natalie? -She's helping
to take some men out of the town.

And Alain?
-He's with her.

I want him
to let London know that I'm here.

If you tell me where they are, I'll go and
help them. -Thank you, but we can manage.

So, how's it been with Albert gone?
-Difficult.

I've come to help.
-Have you? How?

Well I've just come from Paris, where
they're also waiting to be liberated.

If Brussels is going to be like that,
you're going to need a lot of help.

The Germans are panicking.
They no longer stop and ask you

for your papers. If they
suspect you, they shoot on sight.

So, you've been to Paris?
-Yes.

The resistance is
determined to save the city.

The Germans are
determined to destroy it.

Can they? destroy it, I mean.

They put explosives in all the principal
buildings and under all the Seine bridges.

As soon as the Allies enter...

What happened to those
we sent South? Did you hear?

Those who got to Paris
are being hidden outside the city.

Well, we're sending them
to the Ardennes now. There's nowhere else.

I've come to see that they
are protected in the forests.

If necessary, to get them arms,
so they can protect themselves.

To the liberation.

Monique, I must speak to you.

Major Bradley.
-Good morning doctor. -Good morning.

I've just been brought some news, about
Alain. He's been taken by the Gestapo.

The Gestapo are rounding up workers
for forced labor to be sent to Germany.

Alain came into the street,
tried to get out of the trap, was caught,

and was forced into the back
of a Gestapo car. -And the airmen?

They should be safe. Alain was
on his way back from the Gare du Nord.

And Natalie?
-There's no news of her.

Your informant, is he reliable?
-Oh, most reliable.

I was told about it as
soon as it happened.

I came here by way of
the Rue Van Gaver.

There were soldiers and a lorry
and a Gestapo car driving away.

The Gestapo! -You must save Alain's codes.
Where does he keep his radio?

His wife, she must be told.

I'll give you instructions how
to get to the farm. When you get there

Estelle will tell you where
the codes and the radio are hidden.

Then you tell her to take
herself and her children

to her cousin at Namur.
Pascal, you know what to do.

Stand up. Stand up when I talk to you.

Stand to attention.

Why have they brought me here?
-You'll know soon enough.

Now get yourself cleaned up
before they come back for you.

This man is a friend, Jacot.
You have my word. You can trust him.

He wants to know what happened to Alain.

What is it you want to know, Monsieur?
-You saw him arrested?

One of my men saw him.
-Does this man know Alain?

As well as I know him.
He's a local postman.

A useful man who warned Alain to get away.

Was there a girl?
What happened to her?

All eyes were on Alain.
He didn't go easily.

For that, he was taken to
the Avenue Louise. -The Gestapo prison.

Do you have a contact in the prison?

And five of my men are prisoners there.

You want to get a message to him?
-I want him out.

There are only two ways
out of the Avenue Louise, Monsieur.

To the concentration camp,
which means you've helped them.

Or to the burial ground, which means

you've held out too long.
You have no chance.

Come here.

That's better. Now they can
start on you again. -Where am I going?

Hauptsturmfuhrer Klein
has some questions to ask you.

No news from Natalie?
-No.

I went back to Rue Van Gaver.

They say about 30 young people were
rounded up, including eight girls.

What will happen to them?

-For forced labor? They will
be taken to the Ministry of Labor.

Their identity cards will be checked.

They'll be photographed and issued
with permits to work in Germany.

Kind of them. -Oh yes, the Germans
are always very thorough and correct.

They're neither thorough nor correct.
And when they panic they behave like pigs.

How long will it take, this processing?

Well, they don't waste any time.

They'll be on the train
from the Gare du Nord tonight.

Who will know which train?
-Well, the man you met, Jacot.

He controls half the resistance
in Brussels. The docks, railway workers,

postal workers and some of the police.
-Ask him about the train.

I have to be in touch with London.

Where can I keep Alain's radio?
-Max's old room.

I left a watcher at Alain's farm.
We must know when he talks.

He won't talk.
-I didn't say if, I said when.

These are the papers we found on you.

Do you still say they are your own?

Jacques Durand...

And you came into the city this morning
from the suburb of Laeken. -Yes.

Where you live?
-Yes.

We have been to Laeken.
There are four families Durant there,

but none of them are missing from home.

And none of them, not one,
recognize this photograph.

Nor do the local police.

And the local police have
no record of issuing such identity papers.

They are all false. All of them.
Cleverly made, but false,

or stolen. What is your own name?
-Jacques Durand.

And you were on your
way from the railway station

to the Boulevard Wijnlaan
to look for a friend. -Yes.

If that was the case,
why didn't you just say so?

I mean, why did you
fight with our soldiers?

I had no wish to
be sent to Germany.

I think...

it was because you are a terrorist.

Yeah, and I know there is a code
among such terrorists that you must

try to hold out for a day or so to
give your friends time to get away.

Well, we will waste no more time.

Just put your hands
flat on the desk please.

Just put them flat on the desk.

Now, you will tell me who you are.
And what you are.

And who your friends are.

And where we can find them.

Good evening, Monsieur.
-Mademoiselle. Brandy please.

I've told London that Alain has
been taken and that Natalie is missing.

Until we know that she's been taken...

Tell me, is there any German in the room
that handles forced labor? -No.

Natalie is your friend.
Now take a careful look.

Is there any German officer in the
restaurant who deals with conscript labor?

No.

They never learn.

What are you here for, 46? -For being
a patriot. Is there any other reason?

Quiet in the cells.
Quiet!

You have come back.
-Yes, and you've come back.

Do you know they've got Alain?
-Yes.

Are they looking for me?
-Not yet. Come and sit down.

Thank God. We thought you'd been caught.

Did you get the airmen away safely?
-Yes.

We were on our way from
the station when we ran into it.

Alain saved me. The Germans left
their prisoners to go after him.

Everyone was watching Alain.
I was able to walk off.

I went to Madame Vauclin.
She hid me til after dark.

Where have they taken Alain?
Do you know? -To the Gestapo prison.

This man wanted to blow up trains for you.

I'd better sing for our friends.

Alain gave me the chance to get away.
-And you took it. So the debt is paid.

One of you had to get away.
Alain knew that.

If they'd got you both, they would
have had Lifeline by the end of the day.

But was I right to come back here?
I had to know about Alain.

Well, it can't make things any worse.
The problem now is to get Alain out.

Can you?
-They say I can't.

And if you can't?

Well, you and Monique will run to
the hills and hide with the airmen.

How many airmen are now in hiding?
60 and the four that we took this morning.

Do you know exactly where they are?

I know what forest they're in,

but the forests are very big and
there are three groups of airmen.

I don't know exactly where they are.
-Who does? -Alain.

Go upstairs now and get some rest.
There'll be work for you tomorrow.

Now.

I'm glad you're back.

Good morning.

I was in touch with London
last night, checking on you.

They gave me a message for you.
They say you'll understand it.

They say they know and
respect you. That you are,

as they put it,
a resistant of the first days.

That you've been to London twice.
Once for training. Once for briefing.

So, we work together.

How many men do you have?
-In all, about six thousand.

Three thousand in the country
and about three thousand here in the city.

Armed?
-Most of them.

But we are under orders from London too.
The orders forbid private wars.

What about jailbreaks? -Jailbreaks?
You couldn't do it. Not from that prison.

It's right in the Center of town.

They could whistle up
a regiment of armed guards, SS,

in full battle order before we
could even beat down the gates.

No, my men are armed and trained to assist
the Allies when they reach Brussels.

Armed to hold bridges.

Protect communications.
And harass the German troops.

I won't throw that away
in the Avenue Louise.

Just half a dozen men
and a plan of the prison.

No.

You say you have a contact in there.
-Yes, in the prison office.

And five of my men are in the cells.

If it was possible to get
them out, they'd be out.

I'm told Alain's
been listed as a terrorist.

Which is good for your escape line,
but not so good for Alain.

Jacot, we have over 60 airmen
hidden in the Ardennes.

Alain knows exactly where they are.

He also knows all
about the escape line.

Is there any way,
any way, that I can get to him?

There is one possibility.

But it means dealing
with the Boche and trusting them.

Would you trust them?
-If I had to. What is the way?

Money. It means dealing with scum.
The prison guards.

They know they've lost
the war and some of them

are prepared to ingratiate themselves.

It wouldn't have been possible a month
ago, but now... -Has it been tried? -No.

But it is being mentioned.
And the name has been given to me. -Who?

The German who takes the prisoners
for interrogation and brings them back.

But we couldn't afford it.
-How much?

A million francs? -It's no more than
9,000 Sterling. You can pay it.

Are you sure you can trust them?
-No. -We don't have a million francs.

What happens
to your regular payments from London?

The money is to keep the airmen.
Pay rail fares across France.

Guides to take them into Spain, you know.

They're not being taken into
Spain any more and there are

no rail fares across France now
or couriers' wages to be paid.

Major Bradley, they are still with us.

The numbers are growing.
They need to be clothed and fed.

I'll have food dropped to them.

How much does London
send you each month?

How much has been saved?

You were instructed to keep a contingency
fund. I must know how much I can offer.

Hello, Candide.

It's for you, Jacot.

Our salesman is willing meet you today.
Can you come to me at 12 o'clock?

Get up. Come on. Time to move.

The Hauptsturmfuhrer
wishes to talk with you again.

And this time he will expect answers.

Keep our eyes open.

You expect trouble?
-Always. I've got my men posted.

This is Herr Reisener. He's employed
at the prison in the Avenue Louise.

This is the friend I told you about.

These meetings have
their dangers, Monsieur.

So let's not waste time.
What can I do for you?

I have a friend in your prison. I believe
it is possible to have him released.

How long has he been in prison?

He was arrested yesterday morning in Rue
Van Gaver and taken to prison in error.

They are always taken in error, Monsieur.

What is the name of your friend?
-Jacques Durand. Do you know him?

No, but if he's there, I can find him.

What is your position in the prison
that you can find him?

The best of positions. I'm in charge
of the movement of prisoners.

I can allocate to myself
whichever duty of the day I care to do.

Such as driving them for interrogation
or bringing them back to the prison.

Or such other place
as the Gestapo may have decided.

If necessary,
to the SS barracks for execution.

Or I could deliver him safely to you.

You could deliver him safely, to me?

All things are possible,
if the price is right.

We'll make it possible. What is the price?

The war is coming to an end, Monsieur.
Soon, it will be every man for himself.

I require a letter from the
Belgian resistance signed

by him telling the Allies that
I have been of service to them.

That personally,
I saved the life of one of your men.

And in addition,
I require one million francs.

He can't have a letter.

Wait. You can have both.
What now?

When I have found your friend,
we'll meet again. But not here.

When? Today?

When you have the letter
and the money, Monsieur.

When you can show them to me.
Let me know.

Have you seen maitre Guissard?
-Yes Albert. - What did he say?

He said he'll see you again
soon. But he wants

to see Inspector Delon and see what
the police enquiries have shown first...

What else can they show?
-Albert, please, listen to me.

Well? -Alain's been arrested by
the Gestapo and he's being questioned.

They've shown no interest
in the Candide, yet.

And Major Bradley
is hoping to get him out. -Who?

Bradley, Nick Bradley.

Bradley. Oh yes, I remember.
He hasn't come to take the line over?

No, Albert. He's come to protect
the airmen who can't be sent home.

I don't like it. I don't like him.
But he really is trying to help Alain.

How?
-Money. A bribe to the Germans.

He wants to know how much
you have in Lifeline. -Does he?

He wants 1,000,000 francs from you now.
-We don't have a million francs.

Alain is in danger.
-A million francs.

The Candide is in danger.
You are in danger and you can't get out.

Well, what do I tell him?

He was under orders
to build a contingency fund.

There must be another safe.

He was also under orders to build
the Candide as a smart restaurant.

A listening post among the Germans.
Now that has cost a lot of money.

An hour's delay can put
you all in Dachau. Show me.

I don't know where the keys are.

The Candide is not
a charge on the escape line.

It was intended to provide money for it.

What sort of profit has it showed?
-I don't know.

In the end, it all has to be
accounted for. Payments and profits.

I know exactly how
much money the line has had

I also know how much each airman cost.

You can't possibly know that.

Some went home quickly,
and others were kept here for months.

Yes, but each returning
airman was questioned.

How many have been sent down the line?
-I know how many I've taken down.

How many?

In three years - 205.

Strange, isn't it? Across the years
there are certain things we never forget.

205 -- and if you try,
you can still see every face.

Yes. Yvette
took over 200 before she died,

Monique has taken some
and there were the other guides.

I know exactly how many went down the
line before the route was blocked -- 634.

And of those, 541 got back to England.

93 failed to get home?
-Right.

Some were caught in Paris.
Others in the so-called unoccupied zone.

Some went into the net
on the Spanish frontier. Some --

in the mountains.

The treasure of the Incas.

Letters, deeds, cash.

It's not enough.
Not even a quarter of what we need.

You won't find enough money.
I've been to see Albert.

Then we'll have to find another way.

Major Reinhardt.

This is him.

The Department, they think
he may be part of an escape line.

Am I permitted to see him?
-Those are not my orders.

Jacques Durand?
-Yes. The name is false I imagine.

If it was thought he
is from an escape line,

he should have been
given to the Luftwaffe.

He is not an Allied airman Herr Major.

He is a Belgian
and he is a terrorist and he belongs here.

It may also be that he is part
of an escape line, so, I am asking you.

May I take this?
-Of course.

If any of your Department recognize him,
you will let me know.

Klaus? Prisoner Durand.

Go on. You can have it.

You see, we can be kind.

And for those who cooperate,
we can be very kind.

You're a brave man.
I admire brave men.

Major Reinhardt thinks
you may be connected with an escape line.

Were you with an escape line?
-No.

Do we believe him, Klaus?
-No, sir.

Ah, well. Help him, Klaus.

As you can see,
we will soon know who you are.

So, why not tell us now?
Without further pain.

Bravery will not prevail.

And I assure you, those
who cooperate are treated very well.

Now, downstairs is a car.

All you have to do is to come with us

in the car
and take us to visit your friends.

We won't embarrass you.
All you have to do is to point to them

and Klaus and his friends
will do the rest.

Believe me, very soon you will
beg Klaus to stop and you will tell us.

Why not now?

No?

This is the man you asked for,
Monsieur Paul Frenay.

This is a British officer
who has a message for you.

I'll come straight to the
point, Monsieur Frenay.

I'm told you are a wealthy man. That you
are a patriot, and a loyal Belgian.

Of course. -And that in the past you
have helped the resistance with funds.

Well I'm now instructed
by London to approach you

on a similar matter. A matter of urgency.

I wish to borrow a large sum of money.
-Why? -Oh, I can't tell you why.

Then how much?
-1,000,000 francs.

And I am authorized to tell you that

the equivalent in sterling will
be paid into your account

or the account
of your family in London today.

At this moment it's quite impossible.

On the other hand,
with the city about to be fought

over by the Germans,
it is the sensible thing to do.

You, as a businessman, should know that.

Your money safe in London,

guaranteed by the British Government
and the Allies indebted to you.

When would you need it?
-Now.

It's a large sum of money
to be found at such short notice.

And how do I know it would
be paid to my name in London?

Take his word for it, Paul.

Do you listen to the news from London?
And to the personal messages?

At times.

Listen this evening. I've told
them to put in a message to you.

It will say we send our thanks to Paul
for his help. -It will say that?

Those precise words. No others.
Does it satisfy you?

If you can command London to say
such things, then I will trust you.

I'll try and raise the money quickly.

And if that message is broadcast
tonight, then you will have it.

Menu, sir.

I think I've managed to raise the money.
Does that please you?

What are the chances of getting Alain out?
-Well that depends.

On whether our armies
continue the advance.

And on just how frightened they are.
-They don't look very frightened to me.

I've asked about the photo.
It was recognized in the office.

It's thought Major Brandt
would have known,

but the file has gone.
It was borrowed by Kessler.

The Sturmbannfuhrer is on leave.
-Then you will ask Wullner.

An escape line?

If Major Brandt was interested,
it could only be an escape line.

Your Department has the file.
Will you check if it is here?

Perhaps that is why
he will say nothing, huh?

He wanted us
to believe he was a saboteur.

The situation in Paris?

What's really happening there?
-It is now in our favor.

It was reported the resistance
hold the Center of the city.

They fortified it, and that
the Americans are on their way.

The city is ours again.

Read it.

And if the Americans approach, the city
will be destroyed. So, they will not dare.

You approve of this?
The destruction of a beautiful city.

We are not asked to approve Herr Major.
It is a Fuhrer order.

Well, it is not here.

Wullner must have it.
-Then you must find it.

It says there that the Gestapo
have withdrawn from Paris.

What do you mean?
-That's what it says in the report.

The Gestapo were the first to leave.

Yes, and I am asking
what you mean by it?

Could be a pointer to
what the Fuhrer has in mind.

The Fuhrer has
his reprisal weapons in mind.

The V1 is already raining down on London
and there is no defence.

Especially, there is
no defense against the V2.

The Fuhrer will succeed
where the Luftwaffe failed.

Where the Luftwaffe failed us all.

Where the Luftwaffe failed,
Herr Hauptsturmfuhrer?

My reason for mentioning
the withdrawal of the Gestapo

was to wonder whether it might
not be the rule that you leave first.

My staff has been reduced
to a mere handful Hauptsturmfuhrer

and it would be helpful if the matter
of this escape line was settled first.

It will be Herr Major, have no fear.

Any news of Alain?
-Not yet.

What are you thinking about?
-Paris.

What is happening in Paris? Tell me.

A lot of trouble I think.
Things can go badly wrong.

The resistance is rising too soon.
They're not properly prepared.

Why?

Because like all of us,
they've waited too long.

They've suffered too long,
so there's no stopping them.

The rioting is spontaneous.
-People are united at last?

No, the people are divided as always.

The communist groups
are trying to take control

of the capital before the Allies arrive.

The moderate groups are determined to
stop them. So they're fighting each other.

And then they're fighting the Germans.

Do you think that will happen here?
-Well, not if I can help it.

It's tuned to London, but --
I think you'll have missed the news.

There's so many things to be done.
Protect the airmen.Try to find some unity.

See that the communists don't
start fighting everyone else.

Direct the resistance
against the Germans.

One thing at a time.

Paris police seized the headquarters

on the Rue de la Cite
and held it against fierce German attack.

Vichy supporters were arrested or fled.

That's the end of the news from London.

There will now follow the personal
messages to our friends in Belgium.

Here are the personal messages.

The man in the moon is Emile.

I repeat:
The man in the moon is Emile.

Gilbert sends his love to Marcelle.

I repeat:
Gilbert sends his love to Marcelle.

We send our thanks to Paul for his help.

I repeat:
We send our thanks to Paul for his help.

Was that last message for you?
-It means we have the money.

But not until tomorrow.
It may be too late.

Major Bradley?

Your lucky piece.

You'll need it.

I had to borrow some of it from relatives.

I've arranged it in bundles.
Easier to count.

Thank you, Monsieur Frenay.

Now, if I may have a receipt, please
to present to your people in London.

Anything could happen
to us in the coming weeks.

It's for my family
to present to your people...

Jacot, will you witness this?

Goodbye.

Here he comes.

Two of them.

Who is this?

This Monsieur is my guarantee to you

that I have found Jacques Durand
and can deliver him to you.

This is the man who looks after the
prisoner and can give you news of him.

Well? -His name is not Durand.
But I believe you know that.

He is stubborn. He has suffered for it.

Describe him.

The man that was arrested
in Rue Van Gaver is shorter than you.

Thinning hair. Long face.
Not so handsome now, of course.

He is in cell 46.

When can you bring him to me?
-This afternoon.

But there has been a small change
in our arrangement, Monsieur.

We must now include our friend here.

What change does that make?
-It now makes it 2 million francs. -No.

He has found your friend, Monsieur.

And he will tell me when he's being
taken today for interrogation.

And he will not inquire too early
when he does not return to the prison.

Indeed, he will say that he had been told
your friend had died under interrogation.

It happens. In which case, he will not
inquire at all. So he's worth a share.

Then the arrangement must be off.

How much do you want?

If Herr Reisener is to get a million,
then for my part, half.

No. I could get you a quarter.
-Accept it. There is also the letter.

You will have your letters.

Now that is agreed, your friend
will be brought to you this afternoon.

Some time around 4 o'clock,
I will deliver him to you.

And the agreement
was payment in advance.

You have brought the money with you?

But you just raised the price.

Show me what you have brought.

Your letter of safe conduct.

Not til you've earned it.

And 1 million francs, as you asked.

You'll have this
when the prisoner is delivered to us.

What about me, Monsieur?

Your money will be here
on time. And your letter.

When the deal is done,
the money will be handed to you.

Now, you will describe
to me how you plan...

Where's Monique. -She's out
doing the shopping? What's that?

The money for Alain. But it's now
no longer enough. -Why not?

Because now there are two to be paid.
The driver of the prison van and a warder.

You told Monique you wouldn't need it.
-I know what I told her.

And I reckoned without
panic among prison guards.

Looks like they'll
all want in on the liberation.

Want to save their necks.

Want letters saying how loyal they've
been and money to buy their way out.

How can you trust them?

If there's no cash, there's no Alain.
And conversely, no Alain, no cash.

I put my trust in myself.

Which would you rather I bring back?
Albert's money or your friend?

Good luck.

The name's Nick. Nick Bradley, remember?

Good luck, Nick.

He's pulled it off.

You see?
You can trust a German, Monsieur.

I have your friend.
You have the money?

And the letters?

Bring him in.

The money.

And this is the money for your friend.

Bring him now.

It's not Alain.

This is the man
you bargained for, Monsieur.

This is the man
you described to me.

The rest of the money, please.

Where is Durand?

He did not return from
Gestapo headquarters, Monsieur.

I swear to you, we waited.

They picked him up on the street,
not half an hour ago. It was a trick.

No, no Monsieur. Please. I swear to you.

In Paris, you know, they're hanging
prison guards from the lamp posts.

You're the one who can help us most.

You will go now to the Avenue Louise.

You will wait for Durand.
You will bring him here.

If you fail, remember that
your job takes you through

the streets of Brussels
and in 24 hours you will be dead.

Bring him to me as you promised,
and I'll let you live.

Refuse, and I'll kill you now.

I cannot guarantee how your
friend will be. But I will bring him.

Sign for the prisoner.

Wait.
-We have three more to collect.

I said wait!

Sturmann.

He will be your guard.

In.

It is impossible now.

You say we get ourselves killed?

There's an armed guard in the van.
Can you help?

Is Durand with you?
-Yes.

It's not my fault, Monsieur.
They put a guard with him.

Alright, you call for the van
to be opened. We'll do the rest.

Another one to come.

Alright. We'll get you away
from there quickly, Alain.

We kept our bargain, Monsieur.
We brought the man.

What are we going to do about the guard?

He can't go free.
-No. Pay them.

You can have your choice.
