:05:00
- And thanks for everything.
- So long, man.

:05:02
I'll be seeing you.
:05:07
- Nice fellow... for an American.
- Hmm.

:05:09
Right. Right you are.
Righto.

:05:13
Bit of a mob on that Paris plane, sir,
but I finally wangled it.

:05:17
5.30, Northolt. The fog's lifted.
:05:19
Oh, you're wonderful, Miggs.
You're beautiful!

:05:21
I love you, Miggs!
Come, let me give you a kiss.

:05:25
You'd better hurry, sir.
That is, if you're going to pack.

:05:28
Thank you, Miggs.
:05:45
- Why don't you ask me and have it over?
- What?

:05:48
- At least you'll admit you're curious.
- Curious?

:05:50
- Why, curious about what?
- My ears.

:05:53
Oh, I'm sorry.
I didn't mean-

:05:55
Oh, come, come.
Own up.

:05:57
Well, all right.
But it is odd, you know.

:06:01
What I mean is, they look
like they've been pierced for earrings.

:06:05
Do they really?
By Jove, they probably do.

:06:09
Well, well.
:06:11
- I was wondering if you'd
mind talking about it.
- Not at all. Not at all.

:06:15
Then why has it been
top secret for so long?

:06:18
For the very simple reason
that nobody's ever asked me.

:06:20
Wait a minute.
Wait a minute.

:06:24
Let's go back a bit.
:06:25
How did you know
that I was thinking about your ears?

:06:29
- How did you know?
- Well, that's part of my story.

:06:34
There's a woman in it, of course.
:06:35
A woman of such extraordinary
accomplishments that I-

:06:39
well, it all started
shortly before war broke out.

:06:42
I was in Germany. A prisoner.
:06:45
Before the war? A prisoner?
:06:47
Yes, I was a lieutenant colonel then.
:06:49
And together with a youngster
named Byrd was on a special mission.

:06:53
Very hush-hush, you know.
:06:55
Not at all in my line, exactly...
:06:57
except that I spoke
German like a native.
