Doc.

How's the Lieutenant.

Not good.

But at least he's still with us.

Jackson, are you sure there isn't a back hospital around here?

That's what that joker back there said, wasn't it.

Hey Jackson. We gotta get these men there in a hurry.

Hey look. You think I'm in no hurry?

Look. Around the bend.

Doc. Does that look like it's it?

No, but let's take it anyway.

-What do ya think.

-I think we're lucky.

Holy Toledo.

Anybody home.

Hello.

Hello.

Hey, how do you suppose I get to the kitchen for some hot water.

On a bicycle.

Hey Doc.

Mademoiselle, uh, nos somme Americana..

Parlez vous Ang, Anglaise.

Yes.

I speak English.

We're trying to get to the EVAC hospital near Saint, Saint Louis. We got lost.

Well. there is no hospital in this region.

All of this is held by the Germans.

Doc. Let's bug out, huh.

They can't be moved.

He's losing too much blood. Cording's got to stay put too.

Miss, how close are the Germans right now?

I don't know. A dozen or so kilometers inside the lines. No one is sure.

Gabrielle.

I order you to leave at once.

I want none of you.

The wounded can't be moved.

They will be moved.

-Immediately.

-Papa. Don't you see see these men are..

-Go to your room.

Gabrielle, go to your room.

(man coughs weakly)

Look Doc. Why do we stay here and just to get captured.

I think I'd rather get captured than bleed to death.

Be careful there. That carpet is priceless.

Sir.

If you would give me one room that I could setup for an aid station, I wouldn't get blood on your carpet or anything else.

How did you get here? You have no right to be here.

That's right sir, and that kraut bullet, that shouldn't have been there either. Huh.?

I give you two hours, no more, in there.

Jackson, get my kit off the wagon, will ya.

Yeah.

I have no food to offer you. Remember, 2 hours.

Hey Doc. The Lieutenant's coming to.

I gotta get that squad to..

Oh yeah.

How am I doing Doc?

You're doing just fine Sir.

What is it? Where are we?

We're housed with some civilians.

-Hotel?

-Hey fellas!

Down the road.

Krauts.

-What?

-We're behind the German lines.

Back there through those trees Sir. One of those scout cars.

Come on Sir. We gotta get moving huh.

You stay put Sir.

What do we gonna do Lieut?

And level with me.

What kind of shape are we all in?

You caught some shrapnel. You've lost a lot of blood. Cording and Braddock aren't out of the woods either.

We stay. Take our chances.

How far away?

Maybe a mile Sir.

Think you can make it?

I guess I can try.

Pat. Where's my 45?

Do your best..to get word back.

You know where to head.

Yeah.

Away from them.

Maybe we'll get lucky. They won't stop here.

Do you feel that lucky Brad?

No. Not really.

(German)l

That's not Jackson coming back.

No.

No sense in not

Don't try anything, Cording. Just don't try anything.

You are an American? A medic?

I have three wounded in there.

Three. Is that all?

Well, three wounded and myself.

Come out here.

Alfasen.

Herman.

English. Speken Deutche. Ne speken Deutche.

Try to wear out that Count de Contran.

But your daughter and you do speak English, don't you.

Yes. But how do you know?

Richter sir. Major, 43rd field artillery.

You have 4 Americans??

Yes. They burst in about 13 minutes ago, but well they

Only four?

Yes. There were five.

Number five has already met me. Three are wounded?

Yes. Three.

Under your roof then Sir, are 4 of the enemy, yourself.

your daughter Gabrielle, your man servant Andre. Is that correct?

Yes Major, but how?

I have heard so much about the Chateau of your family Sir.

I have looked forward to seeing it with my own eyes someday.

Aah.

This is your famous Fragonard, is it not?

Yes. Yes.

Heh!

Count de Contran.

I know you want to tell your daughter that my men and I will avail ourselves of your hospitality for a short while.

I will see you in 15 minutes sir.

Anike.

-De Leutnant is the only officer?

-That's right Sir.

How bad.

Well, he's got shrapnel in both thighs. I can't seem to stop the bleeding.

Would it be possible sir, to have a doctor look after these men?

That's impossible.

Bad too?

They're all hospital cases.

I'm sure the American army would not have made you a medic if you were not capable.

Do your best.

Here?

There is no other place. Set up your ward here in this room.

You yourself may move about the Chateau as your duties, but only your duties, may require.

The three wounded must remain in this room.

Or you will be shot.

If Count de Contran can provide you some cots, you may have them.

Otherwise, you must make do.

I will provide you with forms to fill out.

Advising the Red Cross you are now prisoners of war.

Make sure the form of the Leutnant is taken care of.

Yes Sir.

By the way.

The daring fellow who attempted to flee down the road was killed.

Gabrielle.

Why are you not resting Papa?

Why are you dressed?

We are having dinner with the Major.

I think you should dress.

I don't want to Papa.

I think it would be wise.

Now, I do not think you need to fear the Major.

I am not afraid of the Major.

He seems a casual most polite. Most polite.

He's obviously a gentleman. Well educated. Proper. Gallant.

Breeding always tells.

Then we are very fortunate.

How, my dear.

Listen to me.

Five years ago I promised you that we would survive this stupid war.

Because we are antenjon. We are shrewd.

How we are practical. We know how to judge people, and

We move with the times.

I don't think I am the right practical, Papa.

My dear. That is what I am trying to teach you.

How do you suppose this Chateau has existed for 400 years.

With the same family in it.

Because we know when to compromise and when to stand firm.

This is the age of compromise.

But!

you and I shall be here.

When the Germans are gone, and the Americans and the English, the Fascists and the Communists.

And the de Contran heirlooms will be here.

The Gauguins and the Fragonards and all our paintings.

For your children, and your grandchildren.

I hope so.

I know so.

Now you change, while you come down to dine.

and let me out of the bedroom.

Only survive little one.

Survive, no matter what it takes.

and bear me grandchildren.

That's all I ask of you.

That's what I ask of you.

(German)

Aah, Major.

I was just telling Andre

I am not at all sure what there is in the kitchen.

Ah, no problems found.

Does your daughter intend to join...

She will be in directly. Ah, voila, as you see.

-Good evening my dear.

-Good evening Papa.

Gabrielle, this is Major Richter.

How do you do.

My pleasure Mademoiselle.

I hope I did not keep you waiting.

Not at all.

Thank you.

Poir toi.

Er,

I was about to explain to Major Richter, that

For the past 5 years.

The estate was unable to function properly. We could raise no crops.

Most of the people have already left the region.

You know, once we had six servants, now

Andre's the only one remains with us.

But Gabrielle and I.

We did not leave.

And we shall not leave.

There is no necessity to leave.

Ah. Exactly.

I have a sense of responsibility to the past,

and to the future.

This Chateau, these paintings, the family tradition must be preserved.

And it shall be.

How long Major, do you think you will be staying with us?

Not long.

I hope you will allow me.

I have ordered some supplies to be sent in. I just like to share with you.

Fond edtu Russian caviar.

Some fine polish hens.

When I was stationed in Borne.

I acquired some interesting Italian wine.

Which I hope you will enjoy.

I also ordered an extra allotment of fuel.

To take the chill off these huge walls.

You are very generous Major.

I'm your guest. I wish to thank my host, and hostess.

How's the outside world?

It's getting more populated by the minute.

What are they doing? Scaling back? You hear anything?

Looks to me like it's gonna be an artillery observation post.

Yeah. What else you find out?

Look Cording. I got three patients here. One of them's got a temperature of 102

The only German I know is Ralph Peterson.

Then you gotta do something.

How many men moved in Doc.

How about 15, down by the stable.

If we wait, pretty soon there'll be 50.

We got to make our move now. Right Braddock?

You think I haven't been uh,

You think I haven't been thinking about it too?

You think I don't know where they'll take us when they decide to kick us out of here.

Doc, it's up to you.

Now we gotta get out. Even if only one of us makes it.

But I can't leave the Lieut. And you guys aren't doing so well either.

You could grab a gun when you go in the kitchen and Richter's orderly turns his back.

It's worth a try Doc.

Even if just one of us makes it we can get word back this artillery unit's moving in.

Doc.

It's up to you.

(German)

Aaaa!

Friedrich.

Come on.

Allo.

(German)

I need your help.

-It looks deep.

-My arm thinks so.

What did you get it with?

That ridiculous thing there.

It's dirty.

You better wash it thoroughly.

I have been doing so.

That's bad.

Why didn't you pick it up?

Too much principle, or too little courage?

You're quite efficient.

Have you ever considered joining the German army.

The kraut on the other side of the door is goofing off.

-Now?

-Better be now.

Let's see who takes this one.

It's a deal.

One.

Okay.

Give me a minute.

Lieutenant.

Lieutenant.

Hey Karl. So cum ein here mitz da doctur.

So feverish the Lieut.

And looken here.

Vus en secret de shweinhunde de Lieut.

and then what ist de matter ist there is na doctur here.

Ka shik no bleed in za house. Sick.

Sick.Auch le stick est obligen de house kit laden put.

Good luck, Walt.

Yeah.

If you don't hear anything, you come in 5 minutes, right?

Right.

(German voices approaching)

(German)

An Americaner dans woten.

An Americaner.

You are covered.

Throw down your weapon.

Come out.

Your hands up.

bang

bang

(A woman screams)

No one leaves the room.

Downstairs.

He was trying to escape.

Please go to bed. You should not see these things.

Please.

He would not stop when I ordered him to.

Did you see him.

I

No.

I, I saw you

I saw you shoot him.

Then he fell.

I, I, I don't know.

I'll see they're all sent away as soon as possible.

Now go to sleep. I am truly sorry.

Where is my father.

I will see him this moment.

Again. My apologies.

Goodnight, Gabrielle.

But you do know that one of my men was murdered.

The three of you will remain here in this room.

Until a vehicle is spared to take you to a compound.

I'd advise you not to be so heroic again.

If your duties require you to leave this room

You will be under constant surveillance.

Sir, neither of these men is in any condition to travel.

For a medic it should be an interesting trick.

(German)

Major Richter.

I do not understand what your men are doing?

Papa. Please.

No, this is not for you.

Major Richter. I insist you tell your men to stop.

I am not accustomed to being shouted at. And I am busy.

Wait. Please, wait.

This is better, much better.

Come down here if you have anything to say.

No, no. I will handle this. This is not for you.

(cough, cough)

I am very busy. Can it not wait.

No, Major.

Please leave those alone.

Yes, of course.

But but but, Major. Your men are taking away our paintings, tapestries.

For safekeeping.

But but but why? They have no right.

Would you have them destroyed? I am merely trying to keep them safe.

Destroyed?

But but but but Major. I do not understand.

Count.

You're living in an artillery observation post. It would make an ideal target.

Can you understand that?

Well then, then, May I suggest a sell off Major?

I've decided against a sell off.

Oh!

Andre tells me that the crates are addressed to Stuttgart.

Hmmm.

Your family. You were telling us that your family lives in Stuttgart.

Are you accusing me of stealing?

Well, ah, no, no.

Are you doubting my good judgment?

Then we have nothing further to discuss, do we.

I know you are not well Count. Don't let me keep you from returning to your room.

Musten vina ster.

Make sure your men are careful, Major.

Please.

(Cork pops)

(German)......and the Americans...

They will be moved.

Alright.

Yes. Yes Sir.

May I speak with you Major?

Of course.

How pleasant. I was feeling sorry for myself because I could not join you for lunch. Please sit down.

Thank you.

Did you have some for dessert?

Of what?

Fresh strawberries.

No, I didn't.

Please have some. Thank you. I love them.

I have come.

To ask a favor.

Uh huh.

Please do not take the Fragonard.

You love that too.

My father does. More than anything.

Then more than anything, it must be saved.

It is the finest painting in the house.

Please do not take it.

And if I do not?

Did your father send you here?

You know he did not.

Gabrielle de Contran. The dossier party was not at all set up.

You will think about the Fragonard?

I will think about it.

No.

One should always save something.

Real coffee.

Congratulations.

Congratulate Friedrich. He finds such things for me.

Have you any idea how much you interfered with my work this afternoon?

I interfered?

You, Gabrielle.

After you left I must confess I did not feel completely,

military.

I found myself looking forward to tonight.

As if I were a civilian years ago.

Wondering what the night might bring.

It is very difficult, Major, to think of you any way but,

completely military.

Hahaha. But not impossible.

No. Not impossible.

I did accomplish one piece of business.

I prepared a listing, um, inventory of the items I am removing from the chateau for safe keeping.

I asked your father to sign it.

To get his approval.

Oh, I did not see my father this afternoon.

Andre told me he was not feeling well. He's resting.

The listing did not include the Fragonard.

That is very generous of you Major.

I am a man of my word, Gabrielle.

More coffee.

More real coffee?

No. Thank you.

I would like to say goodnight to my father.

No need to. He is probably sleeping.

I do every night of my life.

Excuse me.

Gabrielle.

I will be in my room.

Come tell me how he is feeling.

(German)

Papa.

Papa?

Papa.

You're all leaving in 15 minutes.

All.

What?

(knock knock knock knock)

Come in.

Come in.

Did he sign it?

He signed it.

I am glad he did.

Countess de Contran.

You are not what I expected at all.

Oh.

What did you expect?

A child

Terrified of the conquerors.

You're a strange girl.

And very proper.

I, I, I do not feel very proper.

Not now.

But,

perhaps I don't want to be.

Gabrielle.

The lovely Countess de Contran.

Proper Countess de Contran.

Yes darling. I will just be a moment. Thank you.

Friedrich.

Em halas.

My father is very sick.

The Major said,

the American doctor, can look at him.

The doctor.

Yes Madmoiselle.

It is just a slight indisposition.

Mademoiselle, your father is...

Perhaps you have some, medication in your kit?

Some little pills in your kit?

Yes. I think so.

Here they are.

Thank you.

I will get you a glass of water, Papa.

Curtiss.

Ya. Ya.

Un moment, Walther.

He is going with them.

Friedrich.

The Major, would not like to be disturbed just now.

You can get him in?

We'll try it.

You alright Sir.

Now what?

Hey kraut.

Bang Bang

Bang

The Chateau is right here Sir.

Lieut. I hope you know what you're talking about.

They're setting up an artillery observation post.

Moving in a lot of men, practically a CP.

Get me Division.

(A continuous barrage of bombs approaches)

(bombs are very close)
