Original subtitles

We'll leave the bikes here.

Do you see something wrong ?

No.

Wait, we should hear the dog.

I cut it's throat.

You cut a dog's throat ?

It was noisy.

Pass me the binoculars.

No trace of the farmer !

He could have gone anywhere.

Not at this time. Farm life's as regular as clockwork.

Listen, I usually trust intuition...

...and intuition tells me it's good. Are you coming ?

No.

Wait for me here, then.

Michel ?

I don't understand.

The radio isn't here !

They're yours, right ?

Cigarettes ?

What are you doing !

I forgot my cigarettes up there.

THE BITER BITTEN

That's curious.

I thought I'd left them there.

You've screwed up !

Well, here they are.

You're not going to smoke in a barn.

Why not ?

You see, I became a cop so I could do forbidden things.

That's really smart ! Go smoke outside.

Ah, you're boring.

But if I'm right, when it suits, you come over all legalistic.

Hey, what time are the Gendarmes relieving us ?

In two hours.

Oh shit, wait, my hat. Wait, I'm coming.

Yes, OK.

Good, you can come out.

So...!

Can you explain ?

Talk softer, he's not far away.

What happened there ?

The farmer was killed.

...and a wounded guy was arrested.

Marchetti sent us to hide. I couldn't warn you.

...but I saw you coming.

I diverted my colleague's attention.

And the radio ?

I moved it.

But it's fragile !

Where is it ?

I was afraid the Gendarmes would find it.

It's at the exit to the road, in the grove behind the dead tree.

And the injured guy ?

He's dead.

He poisoned himself.

I couldn't do anything.

OK. I have to go out.

Wait five minutes before leaving.

You've recruited a cop ! You amaze me.

I'm sorry about your friend.

This is war.

How's the boy ?

How long have you been here, Marcel ?

A month.

With your son nearby, asking for you every day.

I have safety rules to respect. I'm not alone.

Well he's all alone !

This is war damn it !

Even if people like you forget it.

You don't have the right to say that !

Can't you two stop arguing for two minutes !

I haven't seen my family for two years.

I'm like Gustave, completely alone.

I don't know...

...perhaps you could enjoy the chance to see one another.

You're right.

Why are you smiling ?

Because you're 'tu-toi'ing her.

The little one is fine.

Apart from getting bigger and bigger.

It's important to not tell him you saw me here.

But you're really...

If you tell him, he'll speak in class.

He'll talk to anyone.

As you wish.

You know, one day he'll have had enough of waiting for you.

What did you come here for ?

A nostalgic visit ?

Sarah's going to live here for some time.

What !

Excuse me, but it's out of the question.

How so, this is my house Marcel !

But this is also my home, I remind you.

Oh ! I thought you didn't want that legacy ?

Does your line change as often as the Party's ?

I'm illegal here, I'm illegal everywhere.

Tomorrow I have a meeting.

Sarah can't be here.

I'd run big risks.

Sarah's going to stay here.

You're chasing me out, then !

You've a funny way of putting things.

You're home, you can stay.

But you can't prevent... my friend being here.

I'll come by tomorrow.

He behaves very well.

I know.

You came home late tonight.

I know.

This North Africa story could upset everything.

Could you be transferred ?

I don't know.

No need to worry. Transferred or not, we'll stay together.

Last night I dreamed of Maman.

We were in a place that was like a shop but much bigger.

There were lots of things in the shop.

And she told me, "Choose what you want."

What did you chose ?

I didn't know what to take.

She repeated "Choose."

So I reached out my hand to a teddy bear.

But the more I reached, the more it moved away.

And then... I woke up.

And if we kept it !

If we kept what ?

You're serious !

Yes ! I'd only have to marry you but...

...there are worse trials, right ?

You don't know that.

Jean !

The child would be Jewish !

The child will be ours.

Mademoiselle Rita Wittenberg, do you take Jean Marchetti,...

...here present, as your husband ?

Yes.

Oh, if only I could tell Maman !

I know.

Listen, I have to see Servier today.

I'll try to get an address, I promise.

OK ? OK.

Tell me about her.

She was very ill after you left.

Ill ?

An Abwehr guy told me she attempted suicide...

But I don't know if it's true.

In any case, she didn't leave the house for several months.

Does she still live with the Mayor ?

Yes, I think so.

I'm going to give you an important mission.

Do you know where she lives ? Yes.

What ?

You're sure ?

I'll keep you informed.

The Radio Listening Service tells me...

That there was a transmission yesterday morning, just after the parachute drop at Volnay.

Tell that imbecile Servier that I want to talk to him...

...and Marchetti too.

But first...

...the most important.

Red and White.

What's this "The biter bitten" ?

The cypher key for today.

Why do you cross out letters ?

It's complicated.

Explain to me.

I cross out the letters that are duplicated in the sentence.

I write those that remain vertically.

The normal alphabet horizontally.

Then, for each line, I'm going to write the alphabet normally...

...but starting with the key letter.

For the first, A becomes T

B becomes U.

C is V etc... etc...

On the second A becomes E

Do you understand ?

Almost.

You're not so clever as all that, it seems.

So ?

It's progressing.

What are all those letters ?

It's like being at school.

It's even worse.

You can say that again !

Hey !

I wanted to apologize for...

...you understand, not having believed you.

It doesn't matter.

On another matter, we've collected a lot of information, on...

...the Boches, the Gendarmes, Vichy.

So ?

I thought you could send it to London.

I'm not the Post Office, you know.

What does that mean ?

It means I send messages related to my mission.

Anyway, your information is outdated.

You could at least look at it.

Life is short, especially for radio operators.

The air's good, it's going to be safe.

I still have to encrypt the message.

That's useless.

I have a ten minute window to transmit.

If I miss it, they won't even hear the message.

That's unreasonable.

Across Europe, there are dozens transmitting.

Without rigid schedules it would be a total mess.

Want to learn ?

Yes.

You're going to learn. Sit down.

That's it, everything is ready.

With the North African landings, I don't know who'll come.

Yes, I know. Sometimes I tell myself I'm a little foolish...

...to put myself on display like that.

Goodbye.

Let's have a little peek at how you badly dressed you are !

Tell me about it ! He's worse than Te Quiero.

Gustave ! Come and let me see.

I'm late !

A little more, a little less...

Look at me !

Why are you looking at me like that ?

I have news of your father.

Oh, good.

He phoned me.

From where ?

Ah that... He didn't say. You know him.

He's fine.

He told me he'd try to come.

He would try to let you see him yourself.

I don't know if that's a good idea, you know.

You don't want to see him ?

It isn't that, but he's a great activist. He's got a lot of responsibilities.

Can I go ?

Yes.

Goodbye.

You didn't tell me Marcel had phoned.

Our pact, then ? We're no longer in love, but we talk about everything.

But ... it's you who don't love me anymore, Hortense.

You have Sarah.

Good morning.

For you, Madame.

For me ?

It's time, eh.

I thought you said it was necessary to be punctual...

Still nothing to report ?

Calm down, Commandant.

We're ready to go.

From now on, we're detectable.

Well then, go ahead.

Don't worry, there's not much risk for ten minutes.

What's happening ?

I've sent my call-sign but they're not replying. It happens all the time.

I thought you had an ultra-precise timetable !

Yes, but...

Now what ?

We wait and try again.

Sounds of a car on the scarecrow road.

No, too early. It can't be for us.

We do need to know Raoul ! That was good ! Keep monitoring.

Why don't they reply ! We've already lost two minutes !

Because the operator's half-pissed...

...because there was a huge storm in London...

...the station has taken a German bomb down the chimney.

How should I know.

There's a problem with the set.

We missed the window.

Shit !

The valve filament's broken.

It must have been when your cop moved the suitcase.

Is it repairable ?

We have to find another valve.

You're never satisfied, Muller.

No, that's what keeps me alive.

We still delivered a terrorist in record time.

Yes.

A dead terrorist.

Unlike Stalin, I prefer my enemies to remain alive.

As long as they haven't talked.

But the worst is there's another terrorist out there...

...and he's a radio operator.

Radio.

That means network, expansion, information...

...things that we hate.

How do you know there's a radio ?

A good question at last.

We have very powerful listening stations...

In Villeneuve ?

According to our agreement, I should be aware of that.

No ! Not in Villeneuve.

One is here...

You're going to damage the map.

...the other in Dijon.

Each transmission enables us to know a radio is operating...

...and at what distance.

The first transmission was...

...identified by the Dijon station yesterday morning.

Duration 2 minutes, 195 kilometre radius.

So there's a transmitter somewhere in this circle.

Radius 8 north. It's true, it does damage it !

The transmission was identified by the other station...

...at 209 kilometres radius.

So there's a transmitter at one of the circle intersections.

Why in Villeneuve rather than the other one ?

Because the drop two days ago was at Villeneuve...

...not Saint Hippolyte le Vieux.

So...

The careers of everyone here, depend on this man being found.

German police don't decide our careers, all the same.

Oh...

No...

She didn't give you a message ?

No, she sent yours back.

Everything to do with radio, including valves...

...is completely controlled. I know.

Identification papers, paperwork from the Police...

Given time, we could make false papers...

It would take too long, my next transmission window's at 18:00.

I need a valve right now.

That you can forget.

Unless you want to hold up a hardware shop...

I might have an idea.

No Raoul, this isn't the time.

Well, let's still listen ! He's no longer a kid, you know.

In the Saint Marcel quarter...

...close to the Apprentice School, there's a small hardware shop.

Yes, near the National Aid office, I can see it now.

...I know the shop owner's daughter...

You know her ?

What does that mean ?

Ah... we hang about together.

You hang about !

Yes.

Wait, what are you up to with her ?

We hang about.

And what's your idea ?

Wait, there's no question of Raoul doing this.

He's a courier, he brings food... that's all !

Can we let him get to the end, then we'll see who does what.

So, young guy ?

Eliane likes me a lot, she'll do what I ask.

So, you'll ask her to steal a valve from under her father's nose ?

No. Mondays her father takes a break, and she looks after the shop.

I give her the broken valve.

She gets a new one from storage.

She gives me the new valve, puts the broken one back in the box.

And there you are !

But one day her father sells a broken valve and the customer complains.

Yes, but the father will think it's happened during transport, or whenever !

Anyway, no one will know it's us.

Yes, Eliane will know.

Yes, but Eliane won't say anything.

I promised her a French kiss.

That could work.

It's up to you.

No, he's not right for this.

Excuse me, but it offers a fair chance of transmitting tonight at 18:00.

We're talking about the lives of pilots who'll be knocked down...

...like skittles at a fair, if I don't send a message.

What you're doing is disgusting, .

This is war Marie.

We need to find this radio.

We don't have the means to make a systematic search, so...

...we'll have to drag out all we can from local resisters.

Where has Delage got to with monitoring Postal Orders ?

Right now, worming his way in with the Postmen...

We could start the inquiry on the Headmaster again.

What Headmaster ? The guy at the school, Bériot.

He was implicated in July. Don't you remember ?

That's a rehash. A Freemason singing Republican songs, talk about a kingpin !

Oh no, no. He was much deeper in it than that.

If anything, it's him who printed the leaflets in the basement.

Speculation !

Vernet's right.

Look for newcomers, then check with your snitches.

A radio operator doesn't go unnoticed.

As you wish, boss.

Go to work !

You're worried.

No, no. It's...

I understand it's hard for you to involve your son...

No, you don't understand. He's a fragile kid.

Due to his father's death ?

It didn't help.

Just now as he got ready, he told me his father was...

...a great Resister and was killed by the Boches. Is that true ?

It's more complicated than that !

Well, tell me.

What do you care ?

Let's say I'm interested in you.

Why ?

Because you're a good girl.

A very good girl, even.

You should learn that every flatterer lives at the expense of the listener.

What does that mean ?

The story of The Crow and the Fox.

I thought you'd recognise yourself in the fables of La Fontaine.

Why's that ?

Because...

...your cypher key "The biter bitten" comes from a fable by La Fontaine.

Right ?

Yes.

I didn't know.

Yes it's..

The Rat and the Oyster.

You're kidding me ?

No, it's the story of a rat who goes on holiday

Thanks to the Popular Front ?

He arrives at the sea...

...and he sees...

...a beautiful oyster basking in the sun.

I no longer remember the exact words, it dates from primary school.

In short, it's been warmed by the sun, and it's fat...

...well, he thought he could eat it.

It has to be said that a beautiful bellyful of oysters is...

I'm sure if you were a rat, you'd have eaten it.

No question.

OK. So do you know how it ends ?

No.

Perhaps like...

Whereupon Master Rat, full of fine hopes,

Approached the shell, neck out so brash.

Found himself caught as in a snare, For the oyster closed in a flash.

That's the fruit of ignorance.

So there, it's good.

This holds more than one edification. What we see first is demonstration.

Those whose past life is illusion. Judge each small object a revelation.

And then this lesson is also written. The would-be biter is often bitten.

I had a Bachelor of Arts.

I can tell you nothing.

You want to bet ?

Of course !

Good day.

Madame ?

It's not OK !

What are you... Let me go !

Let me...

It's nice of you to accept my invitation.

Champagne !

I'm not thirsty.

We drink Champagne for pleasure...

...not to quench thirst.

You're right, it isn't cool enough.

What do you want ?

Dinner, tête à tête.

Never.

That word doesn't exist in my vocabulary.

I don't want to dine with you.

I don't want to have lunch with you I don't want anything to do with you.

So you can imprison me...

and torture me ? Good. You've already done that..

You can even kill me if it amuses you.

But dinner tête à tête.

The two of us as in the old days ? Never !

I don't love you any more Heinrich.

Your circus no longer interests me.

Your grand airs of the evil Nazi, no longer excite me.

You're nothing to me.

Just a nuisance.

A bad memory.

So either you let me leave, or...

I can't tell if she's sincere, Ludwig.

That's how you like it.

No ?

Shit !

I've got it !

I've got it.

Did it go well ?

As we said ?

I'm telling you it went well.

This is a good model.

Bravo, little one !

Was Eliane alone in the shop ?

Yes, just as I said. She found me the new valve in the store room.

And no customer came in ?

No.

What did you tell Eliane ?

It was for my grandfather's old crystal set, and she was to tell...

...no one, as it's forbidden to keep this old set at home.

And she didn't ask any questions ?

No.

Raoul !

What ?

You're hiding something.

Oh, you're annoying.

The French kiss, Raoul !

Ah yes.

So... Did you ?

No.

What do you mean you didn't ?

You promised her.

Yes, but I don't know...

She'll wait now, Raoul !

There's no question of you going back. You don't understand that !

Yes, but it's not easy, you know.

You're a bit harsh there. French kissing isn't easy at his age.

She'll wait for his kiss, but then he disappears.

It'll alert the whole earth.

Yes, but I'm not sure this is a problem.

What did you arrange with her ?

I would go back tomorrow, but I won't, obviously.

If you don't go, she'll be upset.

What does she know about you, apart from your first name ?

Nothing.

She doesn't know where you live ?

No.

The name of your mother, your brother ?

Papa's name.

I'm telling you. She doesn't know anything.

You've said nothing of that to a girl that you hang about with !

That's weird.

No, because you told me a Resistant says nothing, so I said nothing.

I don't know what we risk.

If she's not stupid, she'll know the grandfather story is bogus.

If the cops get back to her, they'll arrive at a certain Raoul.

Just to be safe...

...you're going to phone her, from a call-box.

Apologize for not coming...

... and say you're leaving for three months. For an apprenticeship in Dijon.

OK.

That's good, Raoul.

It's good, what you've done for us.

You're a chief, young man. Your father would be proud of you.

You could knock, eh ?

The door was open.

What do you want ?

I didn't understand your attitude this morning, in front of Vernet.

You disowned me before a colleague...

Close the door.

I played it for laughs earlier.

I no longer have confidence in Vernet.

So !

His refusal to arrest Jews in July...

...and I looked it up. Before the war...

... he looked after the Socialist SFIO.

...and then, it's the way he wanted to clear Bériot,...

...that confirms my suspicions.

And you think Vernet is really compromised ?

I don't know anything.

But we have to keep him away from anything...

...to do with the fight against the Resistance.

I don't want to take any risks.

Jean !

What ?

You're worried ?

It's Rita.

Is she not well ?

On the contrary, it's...

She wants to write to her mother.

That's inevitable.

I know.

Yes ?

The Sous-Préfet's arrived.

What does he want ?

I don't know. He looks hurried, nervous... as usual.

Good. Loriot, go see what it is.

Vernet !

The disappearance of the guy at Sérigny ?

I think it's a murder.

The Gendarmes didn't appear sure.

The Gendarmes are useless.

I want you restart the investigation from square one.

But all of the case is at Sérigny.

So ? Go and stay at Sérigny for a few days.

Dijon's all over me about this story.

But I thought you wanted us to focus on the radio.

No, that... that's fine. There's Delage, Loriot, me...

In addition, you're best at criminal stuff.

Good, very well. I'll go to Sérigny then.

That's it.

In fact, I have a political meeting here.

So if the people who come discover you're here...

I mean, not you specifically, but that someone was here...

I'd be in big trouble.

Well, yes, I understand.

Ah good.

In fact, Communism has always interested me.

I want all those ideals, you know.

Don't tell Daniel that, you'll risk losing him.

I had a cousin in Holland, he was a communist.

He talked about the USSR.

What he told me was extraordinary.

He said that everyone was happy there.

Especially the little people.

Obviously, all this it was before the war.

Do you know the USSR ?

No.

But it was explained to me.

There's no poverty, no unemployment, and...

...no exploitation. That's what the Nazis want to destroy.

But no exploitation, how can that be, no exploitation !

It's thanks to the Soviets.

The boss is elected and can be dismissed.

Yes, but there are still maids, anyway !

No, in the Soviets all jobs are rotated.

One day you're a boss, the next week you're a worker.

Shit, they're early.

Does it bother you to go to the attic ?

No, no.

It may last a little while.

Watch out.

The floor creaks.

They really mustn't hear you.

Don't worry.

Comrade.

Comrade.

No problem getting here ?

No. We left the car in the forest.

Holy bourgeois palace, eh.

People that you know ?

Yes.

It's my childhood home.

Really ?

Ah yes, that's true. I always forget your class origins.

Leave it alone about his class origins !

Glad to see you, Paul.

And me too.

So. how was Paris ?

You must have seen it.

Yes.

Lots of Actions.

And lots of losses.

Oh, well, it been rather quiet here for a year.

Don't exaggerate !

It's good you're back, Paul.

I'm going to be able to lead my first cell.

Actually it's me who'll lead our cell.

...Comrade.

It isn't possible.

I've been over you for a year, I can't be under you.

You're paying for your political mistakes.

My political mistakes !

There are mice in the attic.

What political mistakes ?

You let Suzanne into the cell.

Well, it's you who brought her in.

That isn't the problem.

That isn't the problem ?

You were politically responsible. You made the bad decision.

It's true... you're politically responsible.

Ah, because you also knew !

That isn't the problem.

Very good !

If I understand, you replace me...

...following a mistake you made me commit.

It's pretty dialectic.

Anyway, I purged my mistake by liquidating Suzanne, right ?

Very well !

I understand.

And I accept.

I made a political mistake.

It's true.

You... would like me to make my self-criticism ?

It seems natural to me.

We have a meeting with Interregional tonight.

Here ?

Yes.

He's going to explain the new Line.

Good idea.

First the new Party Line.

And then a good self-criticism...

This is an agenda that suits me.

Just a drop.

If my wife saw me !

Monsieur le Sous-Préfet

Marchetti.

Is your Wireless working again ?

I don't know, Delage ?

Yes, yes, no problem.

Because the Maréchal is to make a speech, and...

...at the Préfecture nothing ever works.

At home, my wife has a bridge party...

...so I'm allowed...

Good, you'll find the machine.

I hope the Maréchal knows how to stop the rumours.

Last night, the Préfet began to plan the destruction of archives.

And you really think the Maréchal could go to Africa ?

I don't know.

Darlan's position isn't clear. He's still the heir-apparent.

You're going to fix it.

So ?

You didn't buy a valve ?

But I did buy a valve. I just left the hardware store.

You've at least connected it up ?

It's annoying.

You've at least tried ?

I'm telling you, I just left there.

Really, there's... Nothing's happening.

Ah, this isn't true ! It's new, it should work.

Yes, Arlette, I have a fav...

I know you're playing bridge...

Well, I have a favour to ask you...

Turn on the radio, tune to Radio Paris...

and listen to the Maréchal's speech.

I don't often ask you for a favour, Arlette !

I'm coming but I'll miss the beginning.

So can you can tell me about it ?

Force me to play dummy at bridge, You're hard !

Excuse me, Monsieur le Sous-Préfet, but as I said...

I need to talk to you about a private matter.

It's... it's quite urgent.

Come by the Préfecture tonight, after office hours.

This valve here is buggered !

Look at the filament !

No, but wait, it isn't even new.

The box and the label are new...

...but not the valve.

Bilking a cop, he's got a nerve !

Which hardware shop did you you buy it at ?

This is the third transmission break, the weather must be bad.

But it's more than ten minutes.

I've only six more groups to send.

I thought it was getting dangerous at ten minutes.

This is war, Marie. War is dangerous.

I need an urgent location fix on Villeneuve. The terrorist is transmitting.

No, not in an hour, immediately !

In an hour he won't be transmitting !

Vincent.

The latitude ?

Forty seven point one degrees, north. Longitude ? Five point five east.

Yes.....hurry.

Vincent.

They've stopped ?

They've stopped transmitting, imbecile !

Tell the responsible officer he'll very quickly have news...

..from the SD in Villeneuve.

That he should prepare warm clothing.

How can we win the war with such imbeciles ?

I don't understand.

I dropped in on the Kommandantur

I think that this might interest you.

I'm sorry, when you're transmitting, you don't stop.

This is how you get caught, I suppose.

Two guys are dead for this information.

But you're right.

This is how you get caught.

And how do you make sure that doesn't happen ?

We have to change location for each transmission...

...and be lucky.

Eliane, you know that what you did is very serious ?

I didn't do anything.

It isn't you who put a used valve in a new box ?

No.

Who, then ?

I don't know.

Your father said an old valve in a new box never happens.

He's lying ?

The supplier checks each valve.

Each consignment.

He says it's impossible.

He's lying too ?

You know, maybe you're fooling yourself.

It happens... being mistaken.

Or, perhaps you broke the valve.

Yes. You broke the valve, and were afraid your father would be angry.

I mean, it's not pleasant.

And you put the broken valve back in the box.

Really yes, that's it.

I broke a valve.

When ?

This morning.

You know, my father's hard...

...so when I make a mistake, it's the belt.

so, I did as you said.

I didn't notice that it was the last one.

Frankly, Delage, you see conspiracies everywhere, eh ?

She just broke a valve, it's not serious.

I'd have done the same. The same for me, too.

Only, now there's something that bothers me...

...because this valve you broke,...

...this valve...

...has no serial number.

I don't understand.

Since 1940, all radio valves have had a serial number

...this one doesn't.

That means it comes from elsewhere.

It also means that it's not you who broke it.

And you've just lied to us, Eliane.

You know you're a minor.

If you don't talk, it's your father who'll go to prison.

In Germany.

German prisons are no laughing matter.

And the hardware shop ?

It will close.

And then you, your mother and brothers, I don't know where you'll go !

Who gave you this valve, Eliane ?

Your father's part of it ?

Come on, tell us who gave you this valve, please.

Give me a name, Eliane.

Just a name ! Then we'll leave you alone.

You're in a hole. There's only one way out. Talk !

Who gave you this valve.

Will you answer, little bitch ?

Who gave you the damn valve ?

We could always hide at the rendezvous tomorrow.

But he won't come.

He promised a French kiss, however !

But the guy is a Resistant.

So ?

He can be a Resistant and stupid, eh ?

...or amorous, or both

Anyway, even if he comes...

.. do you really think the girl will play act...

...with the cops next door ?

No, she'll crack.

Enough lecturing. I can do it if you want.

No, I prefer it to be me.

I'm not sure he'll come. One never knows.

So we the dress down the girl, and we stake it out.

Hopefully he's one of those... who keep their promises.

And if he comes, what do we do ?

Do we nick him ? No.

No, if he comes...

We'll play 'Tom Thumb's Pebbles'.

What's that ?

Ah, I'll explain...

...not tonight, because I've a tip-off that I can't miss.

Good evening, Messieurs.

Monsieur le Sous-Préfet

I've been waiting for ten minutes.

I'm sorry.

So. The speech ?

Brilliant, as usual. The Maréchal holds good.

He repudiated Darlan and the Americans. Everything has become clear again.

Well. Your private matter ?

It's about the Jews in mid-July...

Well, what ?

Is it possible to write to them ?

I don't understand the question.

You know... you know who my girlfriend is...

Certainly not !

If I knew, I would have had to ask you to end the situation.

Besides, I'd end up not knowing one day from the next.

Think about it.

How to write to her mother ?

Write to her mother.

Yes. A letter of a few lines to...

...to give her the news.

And she could answer, too.

It just needs an address.

Do you know if they're in the same camp ?

You know, I don't believe it's possible to write there.

But I don't understand. Even for Prisoners of War, we can write...

But they're not Prisoners of War, they're...

They are...

You don't have an address ?

No.

Listen, I find it natural that we arrest them and turn them over to the Boche.

But I also think it normal that one could write to them.

Well, you can't.

I don't understand.

I'm going, Marchetti.

I count on you to arrest the radio operator.

The priority is to take up contact with the Gaullists.

The party has decided to reactivate the National Front...

...of Resistance with all segments of society.

Even with the right ?

Everyone.

All professions.

Workers, peasants, of course, but doctors, lawyers, teachers...

Who do you know to be a Gaullist in Villeneuve ?

Bériot.

The Headmaster of the school.

At least according to the Comrade who does the housework there.

Good. Contact him as soon as possible.

Ask him to join our National Front, and those others he knows.

They're mice.

Good. What's Edmond up to ?

He had an upset.

I think it's a family problem.

Yes, well it's bad timing.

He's the Comrade who must do his self-criticism ?

Yes.

I understand he'll be late.

Hedgehog Pâté.

You look pensive to me.

No... I'm thinking of...

I'm thinking of a girl I arrested today.

Really ?

Yes, a girl of 15 years.

She betrayed her father. She lost her freedom. All this for...

All this for a kiss.

I understand her.

Would you betray me for a kiss ?

I will if you don't tell me more. What did she do for a kiss ?

She stole a radio valve...

...for a boy, a Resistant, I think.

We'll set up a trap tomorrow.

End of the love story !

If he comes, but I don't think he will.

And if not...

Have you seen Servier.

No.

No, no. He postponed our meeting. I'll certainly see him tomorrow.

It's true, this Hedgehog pâté is good.

Thank you.

It's Edmond with two friends.

It's not too early !

Here's someone who'll help me do my self-criticism, Comrade.
