-Ja, I understand that, sir.
- Take this affair.

:08:05
The Führer makes
the absurd suggestion

:08:09
that we abduct Churchill.
:08:11
We have to make a worthless
report on the prospects.

:08:15
And then suddenly, synchronicity
rears its disturbing head.

:08:19
Ja. I see.
:08:20
We receive a routine report
with a brief notation

:08:24
that next month, after visiting
a local bomber command,

:08:28
Churchill will spend
a weekend in a country manor

:08:31
less than seven miles
from a deserted coastline.

:08:35
At any other time,
this report would mean nothing.

:08:39
At this particular time,
:08:40
and in that particular file...
:08:43
(Distant explosions)
:08:46
it becomes a circumstance
which titillates.

:08:50
A coincidence to...tease us.
:08:53
(Explosion nearby)
:08:55
Surely Herr Oberst doesn't
believe it can be carried off.

:09:02
A wink from a pretty girl at a
party results rarely in climax,

:09:07
but it's foolish not to push the
suggestion as far as it will go.

:09:16
Find this man. He's been
out of Germany too long.
