All language subtitles for Combat! S04E31 - The Leader

Harvey, here. Keep on the VAR.

Hey, check the security.

Be

hooked

up in a minute, Sarge.

I'd even like to be a kraut tonight,
huh?

You mean they're all tucked in and
snoring away?

We're out here digging holes in the
middle of nowhere.

Quit griping, Kirby. We've got to fill
the gap between the lines.

It could be worse. At least nobody's
shooting at us.

I don't mind filling the gap. I just
don't see why they can't wait till

morning.

King 2, I've reached point X-ray.
Setting up position.

Good.

Report here for squad leaders meeting.

Yes, sir. Out.

I have to go back to the CP for a squad
leader's briefing.

Kirby, take over until I get back.

All right, Sarge.

Saying it'll be some bad after all.

They'll get carried away, Kirby.

But Sarge isn't going to be gone
forever.

You're right, Little John.

I'll never forget that I came up through
the ranks.

Dan, command's got responsibility.

I can't remrod this whole operation here
while I'm standing on the end of a

shovel, can I?

Come on, come on. Dig them in real good,
boys.

Acting squad leader.

Boy, are we in bad shape.

Hey, Maynard.

Don't forget. Me and the sides want them
ARs dug in nice and deep.

Okay, Scotty, stick her in.

Hey, come on, Maynard. You ought to go
deeper than that.

Oh, really?

Well, I'll export. This happens to be my
BAR team.

Well, it's attached to this squad, isn't
it? Now, come on, Sarge will make you do

it right when he gets back, so let's do
it right now.

If Saunders wants us to dig deeper when
he gets back, we'll dig deeper.

Till then, this is it.

What's the difference? The crowd's been
heading the other way for a week.

Well, how do you know? You got a friend
in G2 or something?

Hey.

Just take it easy, Cage.

Looks like the crowds have stopped
running the other way.

Ban out, you guys. All sides.

I'll call in and get the sergeant. He
hasn't had time to reach the CP yet.

I can get Hanley.

Tell him what's happening.

Wells, get me CP.

gonna do now, Kirby.

Rick Jason.

And Vic Morrow.

Keep trying. Sarge just talked to Hanley
on it.

Yeah.

Before someone cut the line.

Before Cage got it.

What are you going to do, Kirby?

Stay out here all night and play with a
dead phone?

There's crowds out there.

It might have been part of a recon
patrol.

Want me and Austin to go out and check?

That's a good idea.

You stay here, though, little John.

Dean, you go out there with Austin.
Check that area real good.

Come on, come on, come on. You check it
out. Make sure your half of it's working

okay.

We gotta get Cage back.

Sergeant B here, sir.

That knife went pretty deep now. He's
bad.

Well, Sergeant B back soon. We'll get
some orders now. Do what you can for

him.

Kirby, there's nothing wrong with the
phone. It has to be on the line.

Well, do you want me to follow it back
and check it out?

Okay. Okay, take Johnson with you.

Wait a minute.

What are you trying to do, Kirby?

You got Austin and Dean out there now.
If you let these two guys go, it'll

leave us four men short, besides Gage.

Well, how would you like to check that
line out with nobody to cover you?

I gave him morphine, but it's not doing
much good.

We ought to get him back.

I know it.

I know that, Doc.

How about it?

Out of pain. You sure?

Yeah, we went back past the farmhouse.
Not a sign.

Looks like you were right, Kirby.

Maybe those crowds at Jump Cage were
just on a routine recon patrol.

Cut the wires and took off.

Take your positions.

Okay, you guys take off. Follow the line
back and find that break. Right.

I don't want this job, but I got it.

And you ain't helping me a bit by
mouthing off all the time.

Keep your trap shut, you hear me?

Wills and Johnson will find a break and
fix it.

It'll be okay.

Hey, you gotta keep him quiet, Doc.

I can't give him any more morphine. It's
too soon.

He needs his hospital.

Easy, Cage.

Easy.

Sarge?

Sarge?

I've got to tell him.

Sarge.

Sarge is not here. He'll be back.

Jumpy.

What are you going to do?

You've got to get him back.

the break of that night.

What do you think?

They'll find it.

And if they don't, they'll just keep on
going until they get back to the CP and

tell Saunders and Hanley what happened.

The new overlays.

Things have changed, huh, Lieutenant?

Yeah.

Crowds are planning a big push.

We just don't know where or when.

Lieutenant, the phone lines are out. The
CO just got word from battalion. All the

lines in the front have been cut.

All right, that takes care of the win.

It's now.

Get back to your squads.

Follow the phone lines. I'll see if you
can patch them on the way.

They're hitting item company.

What's Kirby going to do?

I don't know.

Why don't you ask him?

That's heavy stuff.

Yeah.

You know who's getting hit, don't you,
Kirby? Item company.

Cloud infantry.

They're moving in under the brush.

Wilson, Johnson ought to have been back
long before this.

Hey, Kirby.

Not now, Doc.

Look, I'll take him back. Just give me
one man to carry the litter. We've got

an attack shaping up on our flank. I
can't spare anybody now.

Doc, go on back there and find some
cover.

Maybe we should all move out.

It's a great idea.

Pull out and leave a hole in the line,
huh?

What line?

Fight him, company goes, we're here
alone.

Out on the end of a big fat limb.

Yeah, if... As soon as you get back,
we'll know what's going on.

Open up!

They're pulling out.

We clobbered them.

We clobbered nobody.

That was just a probe. They'll be back
with more. You can count on it.

How is he, Doc?

He's bleeding pretty bad, Kirby.

Grover, give him a hand here.

Back there by the cage.

Don't shoot.

Talk to you.

Don't. Don't.

Don't.

The line's gone. The line's gone.

Take it easy. I don't want this. Take it
easy. I don't want this. Take it easy. I

don't want this. Take it easy. Stand up.
Get your hands up. The line's gone.

It ran right over us.

It ran right over us.

Soldier, what's your outfit?

What outfit are you with?

I don't know.

I don't know.

I don't know. I don't know.

I don't know.

He's dead.

We gotta get out of here.

Take it easy, Scott.

Take it easy, nothing. You heard what he
said. Let's get out of here. We're not

going no place till Sarge gets back.

When he gets back, if he gets back. Who
said he's coming back?

We don't get out of here, Saunders won't
have anybody to get back to.

Minnan's right.

Look, if what that guy said is true...
Shut up!

All we need is for you guys to panic.

You don't seem to get the message,
Kirby. If item company is wiped out, we

haven't got a chance. Well, who says
wiped out? One guy comes here on the

run, half dead.

One guy, half dead, and artillery, and
Krauts all over the place.

We've got to know what's going on.

Little John, you've got to go out there.

Get as close as you can. See how bad it
is.

Little John, watch yourself.

Okay, Kirby.

Austin.

Austin!

Get on the phone. See if it's working
yet.

Still dead.

Hey, Kirby.

Huh?

Want me to check the line?

No. No, you head straight for the CP.
And leave me your canteen.

The canteen. Leave it with me.

Spot anything?

Nothing.

Get that extra phone wire over there.

String in the perimeter from tree to
tree all around us.

Collect up the canteens.

There's some pebbles in them.

Put them on a wire.

That ought to give us some warning.

Okay, thank you.

That guy was right. Item company's all
torn up. Nobody out there at all, huh?

Yeah, Germans.

All right, Kirby.

Now can we pull back?

It's me, Austin!

Okay, come on in.

I found Wilson Johnson.

Dead.

He should have gone on to the CP.

I tried. I couldn't get through. I ran
into Krauts.

What, between him and the CP?

How many?

Patrols all over.

Beautiful. Now we'll never get out of
here.

What are we going to do?

Nothing.

We're stuck.

Oh, God.

Hey, it's like being down here.

Work me.

We drove him off again.

Yeah, sure.

Grover's dead.

Dean's dead.

Austin might as well be.

We're just great.

I'm gonna help you over the dock.

Put your hand on that and hold it real
tight.

You think I made a mess of it?

Two more dead?

Well, there's another way of looking at
it, Kirby. You know, there's nine of us

still alive.

You did all right. That trip I worked,
it helped.

It helped a lot more when Sarge did up
on that hill.

Yeah, but that had nothing to do with
this.

The Sarge had a machine gun. It was
raining. The terrain was different.

It's not the same thing at all.

But the Sarge... Yeah, but the Sarge
ain't here, Kirby.

And he ain't likely to be here before we
get out of this thing.

You know, you ought to stop worrying
about what the Sarge would do.

It's what you're going to do that
counts.

Kirby?

Whether we live or die tonight depends
on you.

And nobody else.

Kids, take it easy.

You're gonna be okay.

We're gonna get out of this.

It's pretty bad, huh, Doc?

Kirby, they all are.

He'll be back.

They know we're here now.

You just figured that out?

Listen, I'm gonna go check out that
farmhouse we passed on the way up here.

Little John's in charge.

Everybody stays here.

I'll be right back, Doc.

What's he gonna do at the farmhouse?

Maybe he thinks he's gonna find a tank
with a motor running.

Boy, we in bad shape.

Four dead, three wounded.

Cut off and surrounded and Kirby in
charge.

What would you do, Maynard?

Pull back and work our way to the CP.

Yeah, sure.

With three wounded men and crowd patrols
between us and Hall.

So we'd take our chances.

Couldn't be any worse than this.

Or do you just want to sit around here
and wait to be killed just because Kirby

said so?

That's right, Maynard, because Kirby's
in charge.

Maybe you think you could do better.

But like I said, Kirby's in charge.

So why don't you just shut up?

We got them ready to move, Doc, and
we'll pull them back.

Anything?

No.

That farmhouse back there's got a
cellar.

A cellar?

So what? Let's get back to the CP.

You heard what Austin said.

There's cross between here and the CP.

There's cross all around here, too.
What's the difference?

Well, the difference is if we get caught
in the open with the wounded, we've had

it. That's what.

We got less chance in a cellar.

He's right.

I bet we go back to the CP.

Look, we're not having no election here.

Now, get that straight, every one of
you. What I say goes.

Now, wait a minute. You wait.

Now, we got Krauts in front of us,
behind us, and on both flanks. It's

gonna be the cellar, period.

Little John, you cover the move. Okay.

Stikes, give Doc back there a handle to
cage.

Hold it, Kirby.

Clear back in basic. One of the first
things we learned was to stay out of

structures. That's the first place the
Krauts will look for us.

I've been through basic myself, Maynard.

Now, grab that phone and move out.

Little John.

You and Stice go and get Grover and
Dean. Bring them up here.

They're dead.

Just do like I tell you, Little John.

Leave a grenade with me.

Okay, get going.

Jebby, what are you going to do with a
grenade?

Gonna blow up his cellar.

So the crotch will think it's already
been flushed out.

Brilliant. What's wrong with that?

Crotch are moving up all along the line.

Kirby, I don't buy it.

We'd be better off running.

It's a dead time down there. Kirby, he's
right.

Shut up, both of you.

Behind us.

Close? Close.

Okay. You guys stay down. After I blow
the cellar, bring them up.

Bring Grover and Dean in first.

Come on.

Maynard, put the phone over in here
someplace.

Got plenty across the board there.

Got the wounded in here.

Everybody down the back. Get low.

Made it.

I'll stack some stuff up here, get some
stuff!

I don't know if the smoke will last long
enough.

Kirby? This is wrong.

We're trapped down here.

It's the best protection we've got.

Take it easy, Scotty, take it easy.

Take it easy?

You know we shouldn't be down here.

No!

Scotty!

Where is he?

I can't see him anymore.

Im Keller? Ja, untersuchen.

Corona, verzwischen es auf. Komm.

Genug. Geben Sie es auf.

They're gone.

Where's Scott?

He headed for the CP, I guess.

The cross was so close, I couldn't keep
after him.

I never figured Scotty to crack.

Well, don't blame it all on Scott.

You could have helped him, but you
didn't. Kept tearing him down with all

that belly aching.

Dark stuff.

105.

Maybe it's a counterattack.

I know maybe it's about it.

Battalion's opening up.

We're gonna be caught by our own shells,
Cubby.

Let her down here and up there.

At least there's no shrapnel.

They don't look so good.

Maynard!

Kirby!

Kirby!

Can you use my help?

Yeah. Yeah, man, I sure can.

Kirby, I changed my mind.

I found Saunders. He's hurt bad.

We found the break.

We fixed the wire, Kirby. We fixed it.
You hear? We fixed it.

Okay, Scott. Okay.

Look at Hanley on the phone.

Maynard, give him a hand here and I'll
send you some help.

He's wounded. Go get Maynard and handle
him.

Lieutenant?

Lieutenant, it's me, Kirby.

Yes, sir, Kirby.

Listen, we're catching our own artillery
up here.

We're south of our old position in the
cellar of a farmhouse.

Say again, Kirby. You're where?

We're south of our old position about 40
yards in the cellar of a farmhouse.

We're in the cellar 40 yards south of
our old position.

Get the Gordon and his artillery fast.

Yes, sir.

Kirby.

We're lifting a fire in your area.

What about Saunders?

Well, he's with us this time, but he's
wounded.

Listen, Kirby.

There are going to be a lot of Germans
pulling back toward you.

Now, we're mounting an attack as soon as
we lift the artillery.

Keep the pressure on them. You got it?

Yes, sir. Out.

They're losing on sight.

The cops are pulling back. We've got to
try to cut them off. Come on.

After all that, he took Maynard, Little,
John, and Stice, and they bottled up

almost a whole platoon of Germans who
were trying to get back past them.

Hey, Sarge.

Hey, how you guys doing?

How are you?

Oh, I'm getting plenty of aspirin.

What happened to old Cade? Took him back
to the rear. He's going to be okay.

Hey, do the tenants been telling me all
about you?

Looks like you did quite a job.

Yeah.

When are you going to come back with us?
Who knows?

What's the rush with you filling in for?

Huh?

No, no, Lieutenant.

I'm a born follower.

You think I want this bunch of guys
hanging around my neck, always asking me

what are we going to do now, what are we
going to do next?

I got me to worry about. I'm a B.A.R.
man, period. That's it.

They're not that easy to find anymore,
are they, Sarge?

Oh, no, they're tough to find, Kirby.

Not me they don't. Not William G. Kirby
they don't.

Sir.
