Enter.
:15:07
- Ah, the Americans.
- Charlie Dane. This is Dottie Delmar.

:15:11
- Major Otto Hecht.
- Great likeness. Great likeness!

:15:16
- Louis Armstrong. When the saints...
- Yes, are you a jazz lover?

:15:20
From King Oliver on.
Fancy looking junk you got there.

:15:24
It is a fifth-century Aegean vase.
:15:27
I would've sworn it was fourth century.
Looks expensive.

:15:34
- You were shot down over the Adriatic?
- That's right, on our way to a USO show.

:15:39
I see you are a swimmer.
:15:42
- Do you swim underwater?
- What did you have in mind?

:15:46
We need someone to explore
the coastline for ancient art treasures.

:15:50
I'm your man, Major.
:15:53
Aptly put.
:15:56
And you, Mr... Dane?
:15:59
What is your speciality?
:16:02
I'm a stand-up comic,
I do schtick, tell jokes.

:16:06
I'm afraid there's no place
:16:08
in the Antiquarian Reclamation Unit
for a comedian.

:16:11
- But there is for a schvimmer?
- Even if she were not a swimmer

:16:15
she would not be entirely useless.
:16:18
Well, thank you, Major.
:16:20
Major Volkmann, in his next sweep,
will be wishing to interrogate you.

:16:26
- Is he another jazz lover?
- He is a major...

:16:29
...in the SS.
:16:32
Oy. I could catalogue your art collection,
:16:35
write biographies of jazz immortals,
tune up the motorcycles.

:16:39
- I do mending, washing...
- Come. We shall see how things go.

:16:43
I can teach dancing. Limber them up
after all that goose-stepping.

:16:47
- And Gershwin's An American in Paris...
- The Third Reich forbids Gershwin.

:16:52
And not a moment too soon.
:16:54
- Sergeant?
- Herr Major.

:16:57
What took him so long?
:16:59
Sergeant, you will take Mr Dane
to barrack seven
