The last supply officer,
who sent my admiral a chewy steak...

:08:05
is now at the North Pole
doing polar research.

:08:11
You read me, Lieutenant?
:08:13
I read you, Commander.
:08:15
If you'll just have
that sweet young thing...

:08:18
drive that Buick around to the dock
while we load you up.

:08:43
You Americans are really enjoying
this war, aren't you?

:08:46
Ma'am?
:08:47
Most English families haven't seen
that many oranges or eggs in years.

:08:51
But it's one big Shriners' Convention
to you Yanks, isn't it?

:08:54
Well, that's swell, miss.
:08:56
- Barham.
- On to the hotel, Miss Barham.

:08:59
It's nearly lunch.
:09:01
Since when did you start asking
for ration coupons, Alfie?

:09:05
Bienvenue.
:09:06
That's the avocados.
:09:07
It's too bloody gorgeous, Charlie.
:09:10
I need a girl, Sheila.
:09:12
A bright, bridge-playing girl.
Very crusty, elegant...

:09:15
British diction calculated
to bring out the upstart in the American.

:09:19
Who can handle herself at a dinner table
and play bridge like an assassin.

:09:23
Whatever happened to Alice Luddens?
:09:25
She's married off, love,
to a lieutenant in the paratroops.

:09:29
Can't be too choosy, I suppose,
if you're a widow with two kids.

:09:32
Can I go and try it on, Charlie?
:09:42
The balloon is going up any day now.
:09:45
- What balloon?
- D-day, old man.

:09:48
Invasion of Europe.
:09:50
Any day now 1,000,000 men
are gonna hit the beaches of France...

:09:53
in the greatest battle in history.
:09:55
Do you know any girls
who play a good game of bridge?

:09:58
What do you think, Charlie?
:09:59
Yeah. It's worth a try.
