We're on our own outside.

There is only one way to be successful:

be united.

- Nice to meet you! - It's my pleasure.

- Are you French? - No, I'm German.

Simone!

It is difficult for me to imagine this.

I would appreciate your company.

Can we talk about it at dinner tonight?

Five U-Boots count on us!

Tell the men to get away!

Yes, Commander!

You will contact a ship and make an exchange.

This is the man, Mr. Samuel Greenwood.

Your girlfriend?

That's when I told him everything.

I told him that I am Jewish.

Wrangel.

Are you just let him get away?

One of my men is with them.

Fock him!

As the most senior officer, I order you to leave U-612.

I'll go with you.

Nothing was written in the logbook

after the Greenwood exchange.

So that we can write our story.

It is our pact.

My God, what have we become?

- That's what I thought. - I loved her.

You will not pull the trigger.

If you escape alive, think of a compelling story.

The truth will destroy you.

Captain Ulrich Wrangel reports the return of the U-612.

Where's Hoffmann?

Merchant ship at 10° to port! 90° position.

Enemy speed, 12 knots, at 1,200 meters ...

Under the cargo ship?

Under the survivors.

Both engines, proceed slowly.

They will have to pass by the survivors to shoot us.

No noise from the propeller. They returned.

No noise from the propeller. They returned.

Congratulations, Captain!

They stopped to save the survivors.

Excellent maneuver, Captain.

Let's get out of here.

- Silent run! - Slient run!

THE BOAT

- Stra. Strasser. - Inspector.

The newspapers.

FRENCH GRAMMAR

Did you improve your French at the hospital?

The nurses were very patient with me,

but I still need to improve.

It's not bad!

From the SS Central Command in Paris.

Congratulations to annihilating Carla Monroe's resistance cell

and they want to contact me

in an SS operation.

Will you dictate the answer for me?

Thank you, but I'll answer later.

Where are you will going to spend Christmas, Miss Strasser?

Will you go home?

I will stay here. My home is here.

I do not have another one.

You have the courage to return, Miss Bostal.

- I knew you wouldn't arrest me. - Why should I arrest you?

You didn't do anything wrong, did you?

- They canceled the hostage list. - Exactly.

Your absence was noted.

I came back.

Even Mr. Forster wants the nurses' help.

Lately, more than ever they are needed.

- However... - I know.

I haven't received tickets in over a month.

- How's your mom doing? - She is well, I think.

Yes, but she suddenly got sick a month ago, didn't she?

You came to her in...

In Marseille, exactly.

It was confirmed to me at the hospital when I checked.

What is her name?

- Marianne. - I remember.

But don't leave without reason.

Forster is back. I can't help you anymore.

I understand. Thank you, inspector.

One more thing...

Can you send a message to your colleague?

Simone Strasser.

I want to meet with her.

So you moved out?

Yes.

Thanks.

Tell me then, what happened to Anna?

First, I took her to my aunt,

in a village near Marseille.

But the neighbors started to talk.

So my aunt advised me to take her

to the nuns' college.

They are formidable women!

They maintain contact with the resistance.

With their help, I sent Anna to a convent in Spain.

- It's an orphanage. - I'll tell Frank.

- Lui Frank? He is alive? - Yes.

It's wonderful! Wait...

Look this!

It's the address of the orphanage. Give it to him!

He can write to her

or go see her when he can.

Margot,

you changed.

You know, after everything that happened here,

of everything I saw there,

refugees from Marseille,

all this suffering...

You saw it too, didn't you?

They said that Forster destroyed a local Resistance cell.

What do you know?

Hundreds of people were saved

with the dissolution of this cell.

Including you.

You were saved, too, Margot.

Cigarettes and brandy ...

Frank? Frank Strasser?

He is not here.

If anyone sees you here, we'll be in trouble.

Frank?

What are you doing here?

I have news to you.

Anna is alive and well.

It's her?

Where is she? Is it Spain?

And this is yours. You paid a lot of money for it.

PASSPORT OF THE FRENCH REPUBLIC

I have to go there.

- Yes. - I'll go to her.

- Merry Christmas! - Yes, Merry Christmas.

Go to see her. You have the future ahead, Frank.

- Merry Christmas! - Merry Christmas!

First we follow them, then we sink them!

Christmas, beer and tits!

Cheers!

What do you know about tits? Never seen one before!

All crew will be questioned.

I heard that you guys had problems

and they musted to go back to the coast.

Really? Why did the Captain get the Iron Cross today?

Nowadays everyone get one.

Exact. Even criminals.

What did he say?

Anything.

He's just really drunk.

You don't have the courage, torpedoman!

Idiot!

- Pips! - Dieter!

Leave me!

Only one team can be the best.

How do we resolve this?

Candles.

Candles.

MERRY CHRISTMAS

One, two or three?

No, we'll give four German soldiers.

Please allow me to introduce myself? I didn't had the pleasure yet .

Captain von Reinhartz, Forensic Inspector Forster.

Sit down, Forster. Stay with us.

Thank you.

Johannes was my best student at Mürwik.

You had a lot of tolerance with me.

Your success speaks for itself.

You sank 12 merchant ships,

more than 60,000 tons in September.

We were lucky to be back.

From what I heard, after a brilliant maneuver.

You hid his U-Boot under the survivors of the attack.

Bravo!

Congratulations!

Wrangel is the new U-Boot hero.

Because this is what Berlin wants.

He impressed on the last mission.

He invented a wonderful story.

We need success stories.

A victory always attracts people.

The image of a hero

inspires others to become heroes too.

And eventually, it makes the lie accepted as truth.

Commander Captain von Reinhartz.

Commander Captain Wrangel.

Gentlemen...

The whole city is talking about your bold move.

The same goes for your last feat,

if I can call it that.

- Congratulations, at least. - Thank you.

We all know that these medals are just

children's artifacts.

We all know what really matters is:

kill or get killed.

It's simple, isn't it?

Can I have a glass of champagne

with the new Knight of the Iron Cross?

Please, excuse us.

By the way,

I also referred you to the Iron Cross.

- I can handle it better without it. - It's absurd.

A bunch of shit here!

Calm down.

In the morning, I saw boys in diapers boarding U-Boots.

And in Berlin they shout "Hurray! Hurray! Hurray!"

There are only idiots here!

A few days leave would be good to you.

How about spending Christmas with your wife?

I don't think it would be a good idea.

Johannes.

I remember your wedding.

It is rare to see a couple more beautiful and happier than you.

That was a long time ago.

Now she looks at me like a stranger

when I'm on license.

It's not surprise to me.

And I wonder who is looking at me in the mirror.

You better send me back, fast.

I have to go back as soon as possible after this maneuver.

Johannes, that was a victory, not a defeat.

It is not a victory when you hide under the dying people.

Laudrup! Laudrup!

Let's go!

Let's go!

Kill him, Laudrup!

Let's go!

Go!

Laudrup! Laudrup!

- Yeah! - Falke wins 5 to 4.

Are you alright? Come here!

U-322! U-322! U-322!

Where are you going?

I don't blame you, mechanic!

Anyway, I don't like to see so many fools laughing.

Life goes on, Mechanic Chief.

Not for everyone.

If we rationalize everything, including water,

we can hold on for four to five days.

And we can hold on more two days with nothing.

We will hold on for at least a week.

Someone will meet us this week, Captain.

Do you have any idea of ​​the size of the Atlantic?

Despair is our enemy, Captain.

Yes. So does hunger.

The weather.

And the sea.

LA ROCHELLE DEPOSIT

Girls, can you get me a cigarette?

Come on, I want to have a cigarette while I rest.

Listen, you have to work here,

and don't bother girls.

You haven't done anything yet.

Give me the $10 in advance.

I'll give you $5 now and $5 later.

I don't do anything for $5.

Stay with them.

Go to hell with your shit job!

Come on!

Excuse me.

I can't let you in.

- But why? - David forbade me. I can not.

Good Morning!

Miss Strasser, what are you doing here?

I told to my sister-in-law not to leave you in.

It's very dangerous.

You know that the four of you.

You cannot live on their sister-in-law's rations.

Take mine.

Look, children, what I found.

They are eggs.

Wait for Dad.

- Strasser? - No.

What are you doing here?

I asked what you are doing here, Strasser!

Standing there, Strasser!

Strasser! Stop, Strasser!

No!

It is an SS mission with the Navy support.

It's top secret.

Why me?

In my opinion, von Reinhartz is not only the best captain,

but he is also a man of absolute confidence.

May I ask what is the mission?

For now, just know that you need to take something to somewhere.

Here are the details and the map.

Break the seal and read the order

only when it is 20° west longitude.

Before this, the details of the mission will not be revealed.

Yes, Inspector.

Some people are on leave.

Other...

We agree to have the license holders replaced the U-612,

Captain Wrangel's U-Boot.

Anyway, I wanted to dismantle this team,

for they are not Wrangel's men, but Hoffmann's.

Lieutenant Schiller will be your new Second in Command.

So I should warn Lieutenant Schiller.

Captain Reinhartz ...

It is an extremely important mission.

Not just for SS,

but also for German propaganda and morals.

My dear Elli...

I made a decision that I hope you will accept it

when you know the reasons.

Finally, it is very important

leave Germany immediately after receiving this letter.

I know you well, Desjesquier.

I know what kind of bastard you are.

You would sell your own mother, wouldn't you?

- She is dead. - You won't see any money.

Because there are no more jews in La Rochelle.

I've already wasted too much time with you.

Now, you get out!

Get out! Or I will arrest you!

Do you have something for me?

It's came from Berlin this morning.

Thank you.

Who were you talking to?

Your French has improved.

You will stand on your own legs.

Anatole Desjesquier, a chicken farmer.

What did he want?

Make up stories about hidden Jews.

to earn some money.

I told him that you took care of this matter personally.

and it's a lie.

Mr. Desjesquier?

Excuse me for a moment, please.

Inspector Duval told me that you had information.

Yes, but they are not free.

Sorry to disappoint you,

but you will not receive money for doing your duty.

If you have any information, say it,

or I will have to arrest you.

These jews are helped by a German woman.

Who?

Someone you know.

He is probably lying,

but he said that was on Rue de la Mer

some jews are hiding in a basement.

Rue de la Mer? I know this street.

Rue de la Mer, 28.

One unit will check it.

As always, at night.

We don't want to attract attention.

I understand.

Where were you going?

I was going to see my daughter.

Where?

In Spain, Captain.

In an orphanage,

- inside a monastery. - Spain, orphanage, monastery...

Do you think I'm an idiot?

Her mother died.

My condolences.

But it still looks like a defection.

I can send you to the shooting.

otherwise, a daughter living so far from her father

after losing her mother is too horrible,

no matter how stupid her father is.

Anyway, you not wasted no time

before we realized your absence.

However, I need a radio operator to speak english,

for a special mission.

Get out!

By the way, it looks like your daughter is in good hands.

It will be better for you to stay alive for now.

Stay with von Reinhartz,

because he knows what he's doing.

You will see your daughter when the war is over.

Get out!

Simone!

Simone!

Frank!

I was arrested when trying to go to Anna.

But how are you here?

They forgave me again.

I will leave on a special mission.

- What kind of mission? - I have no idea.

Does not matter.

Yes, nothing matters.

From now,

we will only pay attention to what is important.

Yes.

Is that you?

How long are you here for?

You need to get rid of Forster.

Sooner or later, he'll take revenge on you.

Frank ...

My dear brother...

Sometimes, things don't work out the way we want them to.

Take care.

- Margot Bostal? - Room 5.

Margot?

Simone! What are you doing here?

It was while Forster was in the hospital.

A young inspector came to see me because he found out,

checking civil records,

that a Jewish family arrived here from Paris

at the end of August, after deportations,

but their departure was not recorded.

I told him I would alert the Forster,

but I went looking them and found them

at David's sister-in-law's house.

They were in the basement, starving.

I deleted their names from the registry,

then I took what I found with food to them.

That's it.

I knew you would not give up.

And you?

I'm in resistance now.

I met them when they took Anna.

They told to me to come back and find a new escape route.

So, can you help me? Can you get them out of here?

I can't because I have to stay here.

Forster will never let me out.

I didn't think I would see him soon again, First Watch Officer.

- Neither do you - Chief mechanic!

Neither do you, Chief Mechanic.

Strelitz! Strasser!

Look this!

They are so desperate, that they gave me another chance.

Introducing myself to the radio station, sir.

Everything is in order.

Thanks, but Strasser has arrived

and I want him to check it too.

The radio station is crucial.

Yes, First Watch Officer

He's our new comrade.

- Are you a torpedoman? - Yes, sir...

First Watch Officer.

Captain on board!

Attention men!

Rest!

Who knows me

knows that in a U-Boot I don't care about hierarchy.

The only things I ask

is that we lead together and fight together.

- Proceed! - Roger that, Captain!

All at your posts!

Who are they?

They came from Wrangel U-boat's.

They were almost missing their U-boat.

They better be careful while they're on board.

Did you get the orders, Captain?

After we passing through Ré Island, we will head west.

At 20° west longitude, I will open the order of the mission.

- Our "cargo", Captain. - Bring it inside!

Is that our cargo?

Not exactly.

Comrade Captain von Reinhartz!

Sturmbannführer Erwin Friedel, SS.

My comrades, Obersturmführer Salz and Freund.

Welcome aboard...

Gentlemen.

You go to the officers' room.

Your comrades will stay with the others officers.

Fischer!

Show them the way!

Yes, live!

Sturmbannführer, it's not allowed firearms on board.

Our orders state that we cannot deliver them to anyone.

Shouldn't you have received orders not to mention them?

Before you boarded, I didn't even know what the cargo was.

I understand then to be clarified

as to our privilege and the hierarchy.

First Watch Officer!

Here it is.

- But what's going on? - You have to do what I saying.

David, they will come after you.

- You msut leave tonight. - Who is she?

It's Margot, a friend. She will help you.

Get your things.

Hello childrens, you have to leave.

Do you have luggage?

- Yes, Miss. - We're leaving.

David, you have to leave now!

David! You have to go!

They are here.

Let's go! Margot, take the kids!

David, you pass first. Get out the window!

I'm going there. Let's go!

- Let's go! - Ruth!

- Simon! - Get out!

Margot!

Come on! Follow me!

Let's go!

Go on!

Let's regroup outside.

So, I didn't wait for the night, did I?

I just want you.

Only you.

The jews are gone, Inspector.

They were helped. Cntinue the search.

They will appear at some point.

What will we do with it? Do we call an ambulance?

Get her off the floor!
