Inside the Lines is a 1930 American pre-Code spy drama film directed by Roy Pomeroy. Based on the 1915 Broadway play by Earl Derr Biggers, the film follows Jane Gershon, a woman engaged to Eric Woodhouse, both living in Germany before World War I. When war breaks out, they reunite in Gibraltar, where they are suspected of being German spies tasked with sabotaging the British fleet. As deception and intrigue unfold, Jane and Eric must navigate their true allegiances, leading to a tense and dramatic climax. With espionage, romance, and wartime suspense, this film remains a fascinating entry in early spy cinema.

00:02:57I must go.

00:02:59I must go.

00:03:01When?

00:03:03Tonight.

00:03:04Tonight?

00:03:05But I thought you said you were going to stay here at least a month.

00:03:07The plan.

00:03:09It's terribly important.

00:03:11Something I can't tell, even you.

00:03:15But surely you owe me some explanation.

00:03:17I know I do.

00:03:18I know I do.

00:03:19But I can't give you one.

00:03:21Oh, I know how you feel.

00:03:23Oh, I feel the same way myself.

00:03:25Oh, I know how you feel.

00:03:27Oh, I feel the same way myself.

00:03:29Oh, I know how you feel.

00:03:31Oh, I feel the same way myself.

00:03:51Let me do that for you.

00:03:53You know, this is all so awfully strange and mysterious.

00:03:59Like some old melodrama.

00:04:02A week ago, we hadn't met.

00:04:04You didn't mean a thing to me, and I didn't mean a thing to you.

00:04:09Now you stand there, filling my pipe and disturbing me terribly.

00:04:16Can it be possible that we've only known each other such a short time?

00:04:19Just seven days.

00:04:21It seems much longer to last.

00:04:23Yes, but much has happened, Jane.

00:04:28We've had a perfectly glorious time.

00:04:31And until ten minutes ago, I was possibly the happiest man in the whole world.

00:04:35But now, I'm...

00:04:37No, I'm...

00:04:38No, I'm...

00:04:39We've had trouble with the world.

00:04:40You don't know the world.

00:04:41Let me go.

00:04:42When it comes to Germany, please keep me in the world.

00:04:45Let me stay in the world, please.

00:04:47What does it say?

00:04:48What does it say?

00:05:02Oh, I forgot you.

00:05:03You don't know German.

00:05:05Germany has declared war on Russia.

00:05:09War?

00:05:10May I go, friend?

00:05:12I have a boy who will be called.

00:05:14Yes, Hans.

00:05:15Please, Lord.

00:05:15War is a ghastly thing.

00:05:20God knows what this may lead to.

00:05:35Probably a good thing you are going.

00:05:38You'll be safer in London.

00:05:41You're not going away because...

00:05:43because of someone else.

00:05:45Oh, no.

00:05:47You mustn't think that.

00:05:49There's no one else.

00:05:51There couldn't be.

00:05:54Eric, will you say goodbye to me, dear?

00:05:58Why here?

00:06:01Because I want my last thought of you to be here in this garden,

00:06:05where we've been so happy together.

00:06:08Last thought?

00:06:08But you don't mean that this is really goodbye.

00:06:13No.

00:06:14Not goodbye.

00:06:16Just...

00:06:17Auf Wiedersehen.

00:06:19He's going...

00:06:29I'm going to be here in this garden.

00:06:35I feel like I'm going for a while.

00:06:37I'm going for a while.

00:06:37Oh, my Lord.

00:06:40He's going for a while.

00:06:41I'm going for a while.

00:07:43BIRDS CHIRP

00:07:45BIRDS CHIRP

00:07:47Good morning.

00:07:48Ah, good morning, Miss Gershon.

00:07:50Prompt as usual.

00:07:52Just to show you that I don't need much more prompting.

00:07:55We shall see.

00:08:25Now I hope you are as trafficking your lessons as you were yesterday.

00:08:36I think I shall be.

00:08:37It's becoming second nature to me.

00:08:39Right.

00:08:40You are now no longer Jane Gershon.

00:08:43You are Ellen Cotier.

00:08:46Who is this?

00:08:48Major General Sir George Crandall, KCB.

00:08:51How long has he been in command of Gibraltar?

00:08:53Two years.

00:08:55Who is this?

00:08:56Lady Crandall.

00:08:57How did you first meet Lady Crandall?

00:08:59Our mothers were friends.

00:09:01Have you seen much of Lady Crandall in the last few years?

00:09:03Not since I was 14.

00:09:05Has your family kept in touch with Lady Crandall?

00:09:07My sister Pauline writes to her all the time.

00:09:10And it was through her that Lady Crandall invited you to visit Gibraltar?

00:09:13Yes.

00:09:17What was the name of your governess when Lady Crandall knew you?

00:09:20Elizabeth Breckin.

00:09:22And what is your name?

00:09:23And after whom were you named?

00:09:25My name is Ellen Cotier.

00:09:26I was named after my Aunt Ellen.

00:09:27Where have you been living the last three years?

00:09:31In Paris, studying the violin.

00:09:33Anybody else?

00:09:34No.

00:09:36That's splendid, miss.

00:09:38One eight nine three.

00:09:40Correct, number one eight nine three.

00:09:42I think you pass anywhere, under any test.

00:09:45I will because I feel as though I really am, Ellen Cotier.

00:09:49We have to be careful because I feel this house is being watched.

00:09:53Would you like to know the plans again?

00:09:55I don't think it's necessary.

00:09:57I have a picture of every room in my head.

00:10:08You'd better take this.

00:10:09You never know when you may need it.

00:10:11You have all your instructions.

00:10:14Yes, but are you sure there is no chance of the actual Miss Cotier appearing?

00:10:18None whatever.

00:10:20We have taken good care of that.

00:10:23And the passports.

00:10:25Here.

00:10:28Also her violin.

00:10:32I hope Miss Gershensel plays the violin as well as ever.

00:10:35Yes.

00:10:36And where is the luggage?

00:10:38Her luggage is at your hotel.

00:10:39I almost believe it myself.

00:10:53Of course, I don't have to tell you to be careful.

00:10:56I want to impress upon you that this is not only an unusually important mission, but an unusually dangerous one.

00:11:09Under no circumstances whatsoever must you reveal your identity, except by the innocent use of your number.

00:11:16Remember, you're acting absolutely alone, without assistance.

00:11:21In enemy country, your sex cannot save you.

00:11:24Male or female, you are a spy.

00:11:30I understand perfectly.

00:11:32There's no more to be said, except...

00:11:34As German as I.

00:11:42Perfect, my dear.

00:11:43There's no more to be said, except for me.

00:11:44There's no more to be said, except for me.

00:11:45There's no more to be said, except for me.

00:11:46There's no more to be said, except for me.

00:11:47There's no more to be said, except for me.

00:11:48There's no more to be said, except for me.

00:11:49There's no more to be said, except for me.

00:12:20So your name is Trotley now.

00:12:44You certainly have a great deal of courage to come back here at this time.

00:12:47I don't know what you mean.

00:12:51You know exactly what I mean.

00:12:54Belketsk.

00:12:56Sergeant.

00:12:56Sergeant of the Guard.

00:12:58Sergeant of the Guard.

00:12:59Two men.

00:13:00Quick march.

00:13:04Left turn.

00:13:07Left turn.

00:13:08Quick march.

00:13:09Not a very pleasant thing to see on landing, I'm afraid.

00:13:24No, it isn't.

00:13:25I'm sorry, but it's war.

00:13:31Miss Courtier?

00:13:33Miss Courtier.

00:13:34May I ask why you were in Gibraltar?

00:13:38I've come to visit Lady Crandall.

00:13:41Oh, I beg your pardon.

00:13:42If you don't mind waiting a minute or two, I'll see that Lady Crandall knows you're here.

00:13:46That's very kind.

00:13:47You see, in order to go through the fortifications, one has to have an escort.

00:13:51I understand.

00:13:52And how long must I wait?

00:13:53Possibly ten or fifteen minutes, Miss Courtier.

00:13:57If you'd rather wait in that hotel across the street, to Paris, I'll send the car over there.

00:14:04Boy, take this lady's bags across the street.

00:14:18Put my bags just over there.

00:14:53Good morning, mademoiselle.

00:15:00I'm the maid to the hotel.

00:15:01Good morning.

00:15:02I am at your service.

00:15:05You see, I'm the guest of Sir George and Lady Crandall.

00:15:08I'm just waiting for the car.

00:15:10Well, then, while you are waiting, permit me to offer you the hospitality of my private office.

00:15:15That's very kind.

00:15:24May I?

00:15:54I see, mademoiselle is a musician.

00:15:56Not a very good one, I'm afraid.

00:15:58Violins are my hobby.

00:16:00Oh, yes?

00:16:01Will you, uh, permit me to look at yours?

00:16:04Violins?

00:16:08Oh.

00:16:11Then, uh, I should like to play it.

00:16:14I see you have my favorite melody.

00:16:28That's odd.

00:16:31Do you know it, too?

00:16:33Not very many people do these days.

00:16:36It's not so old.

00:16:39It was written in, uh, 1889.

00:16:45No, 1893, I believe.

00:16:49So, you are 1893.

00:16:53I'm glad you've come, Fraulein.

00:16:56Ich wurde nervös.

00:16:58And you are 1889.

00:17:01But tell me, how did you ever recognize me?

00:17:05I was told to, uh, look out for a pretty lady carrying a violin case marked E.C.

00:17:13Everything is working fine.

00:17:17Well, for 12 years I've served at Blomstrasse, in Constantinople, in London, and here on the rock.

00:17:23But never before has there been such an opportunity.

00:17:29Well, let's get down to business.

00:17:32Good.

00:17:37Do you have studied any plans of the fortification of the rock?

00:17:40No.

00:17:41I remember them quite well.

00:17:42You see, I was here seven years ago.

00:17:47Here are the plans that will give you the details you need.

00:18:10Study these tonight, and burn them before you sleep.

00:18:13And be careful.

00:18:15Certainly.

00:18:16You know room B?

00:18:18Yes, as I remember, that's next to the governor's office.

00:18:21Right.

00:18:22Now, in that room there's a safe, to which only two have the combination.

00:18:26The staff major, and myself.

00:18:34There it is.

00:18:36The dual combination.

00:18:38It sounds all too easy.

00:18:40Don't fool yourself.

00:18:41There are two sentries on duty by day, and one by night, watching that room.

00:18:46Well, sentries are only human.

00:18:49The safe is not.

00:18:50It is charged with electricity, and will kill anyone.

00:19:03Anyone who doesn't know the right way to touch it.

00:19:06And how am I to learn the right way?

00:19:08Let me show you.

00:19:09There are three handles on the panels on the bookcase.

00:19:10Yes.

00:19:11The two on the right, you turn so, and the bookcase on the wall will slide away, exposing the safe.

00:19:27Then what?

00:19:28Now, on this safe there are two dials.

00:19:33I see.

00:19:34But if you stand in the natural position to open the safe, and touch those two dials, you'll

00:19:41not only give the alarm, you'll electrocute yourself.

00:19:44Electrocute myself?

00:19:46Right.

00:19:47That's a charming idea.

00:19:49But if you stand 16 inches back from the safe, so, and over, you can work the combination

00:20:06without danger.

00:20:07Well, you're right.

00:20:08And in the event that you are, then what works?

00:20:11In the drawer marked D, there is a key.

00:20:30Tomorrow morning, early, you must get it out.

00:20:35At five minutes to five, number fifty-four will come to you for it.

00:20:41And who is number fifty-four?

00:20:43That none of us know.

00:20:45But he will meet you there, and make himself known to you.

00:20:49Until then, you must work alone.

00:21:06Thank you, sir.

00:21:07Thank you, sir.

00:21:08But there's an officer here.

00:21:09An officer?

00:21:10Yes, sir.

00:21:11With a car for Miss Courtier.

00:21:12Miss Courtier?

00:21:13Yes, sir.

00:21:14Move.

00:21:15Move.

00:21:16Yes, sir.

00:21:17Move.

00:21:45Oh, I say.

00:21:46Miss Courtier, I presume?

00:21:47Yes, I am Miss Courtier.

00:21:48Well, I'm the general's aide, you know.

00:21:49Oh.

00:21:50I've been sent down to escort you to his quarters.

00:21:51How do you do, Captain?

00:21:52Oh, really, please forgive me.

00:21:53I haven't introduced myself, have I?

00:21:54I'm Lieutenant Archibald Plantagenus Chunley.

00:21:55Royal Garrison Artillery.

00:21:56How do you do, Lieutenant?

00:21:57Yes, sir.

00:21:58It's an awfully long name.

00:21:59Don't you bother with it, please.

00:22:00Most of my friends, and quite a lot of people who really aren't my friends at all, call me Archie.

00:22:04Oh, I've been sent down to escort you to his quarters.

00:22:06How do you do, Captain?

00:22:07Oh, really, please forgive me.

00:22:08I haven't introduced myself, have I?

00:22:09I'm Lieutenant Archibald Plantagenus Chunley.

00:22:12Royal Garrison Artillery.

00:22:13How do you do, Lieutenant, sir?

00:22:15Oh.

00:22:16Yes, it's an awfully long name.

00:22:18Don't you bother with it, please.

00:22:20Most of my friends, and quite a lot of people who really aren't my friends at all, call me Archie.

00:22:26Archie.

00:22:27Duff, blaze, archie.

00:22:30But it is so sudden.

00:22:35The luggage is in your car, sir.

00:22:37All right, thank you.

00:22:38Shall we go?

00:22:56Please, go.

00:22:57All right.

00:22:58All right, sir.

00:22:59Please.

00:23:00All right.

00:23:01All right.

00:23:02We're waiting to meet.

00:23:03All right.

00:23:04All right, sir.

00:23:06All right.

00:23:07All right, sir.

00:23:09All right.

00:23:10Mrs. Cartier and Lieutenant Chumley.

00:23:29My dear!

00:23:31Why, I was nearly going to call you child.

00:23:34But you've grown into a woman.

00:23:37A beautiful woman, if I might say so.

00:23:39That's awfully kind of you.

00:23:41Somehow, I don't recognize you at all.

00:23:44You've changed, though.

00:23:46Changed?

00:23:47Why, yes.

00:23:48I think you're just being entirely different.

00:23:50Then I suppose you've surprised everybody.

00:23:52You know, as a child, you weren't particularly good-looking.

00:23:55But now, you've developed into a most extraordinarily beautiful woman.

00:23:59Oh, rather, Lady Crandall, yes.

00:24:02Most extraordinarily beautiful.

00:24:04I think Sir George was looking for you a moment ago, Archie.

00:24:08By Jove, that means I've got to go and report, I suppose.

00:24:11I should if I were you, Archie.

00:24:13It will make you any happier.

00:24:14You may tell your fellow officers from me that Mrs. Cartier is grade A.

00:24:19Oh, really, Lady Crandall?

00:24:21And that you'll be here for several weeks.

00:24:23I'm so glad.

00:24:24You know, I'll be seeing you again, Mrs. Cartier.

00:24:27Yes.

00:24:28Goodbye, Archie.

00:24:30Goodbye, Archie.

00:24:31I beg your pardon?

00:24:32Goodbye.

00:24:33Oh, goodbye.

00:24:34Yes, of course.

00:24:35Goodbye.

00:24:36He's a nice boy, but still a boy.

00:24:41Oh, but you let me think about it, dear.

00:24:43Come and sit down.

00:24:45I'm so glad you brought this.

00:24:47Oh, my sister has a picture like this, Arthur.

00:24:50Oh, yes, I know.

00:24:51It's my favorite one.

00:24:52It's rather satisfactory.

00:24:53That's why I sent it to all my friends.

00:24:56But tell me, how is Pauline?

00:24:58Splendid.

00:24:59Very happy.

00:25:00And very busy with the family.

00:25:02You know, she always gives me a shock when I think Pauline's having children.

00:25:07Our time's night.

00:25:08Why, it seems only yesterday when you used to walk together.

00:25:12Indeed, it made me feel quite old when I saw you standing at the door.

00:25:15Somehow or other, I didn't expect you to be as just as you are.

00:25:19I suppose we all changed.

00:25:22I don't think you look a day old.

00:25:25But tell me, how is Sir George?

00:25:27Oh, Sir George is very well.

00:25:29Well, he's very worried.

00:25:31I suppose it is a great responsibility being in command of Gibraltar, particularly now.

00:25:37Well, it isn't only that.

00:25:38Well, he's desperately upset because of spies.

00:25:41Spies?

00:25:42Yes.

00:25:43The intelligence department has notified him to take every precaution.

00:25:46But surely it's impossible for a spy to come here to Gibraltar.

00:25:50That's just it.

00:25:51It isn't impossible.

00:25:52Why, only this morning they caught a man in the barrier.

00:25:55Did they think he was a spy?

00:25:56Think it, my dear.

00:25:57They knew it.

00:25:58Sir George is just arranging for his trial.

00:26:00Poor fellow.

00:26:01Poor fellow.

00:26:02Well, sir, thank goodness that's over.

00:26:07Yes, there's nothing I hate more than a court martin.

00:26:10I think these should be locked up at once.

00:26:13Come in.

00:26:14Captain Woodhouse, sir.

00:26:15The Royal Engineer.

00:26:16Woodhouse?

00:26:17Engineers?

00:26:18Yes, that's the new staffer to assist me.

00:26:19Oh, yes.

00:26:20Show him in.

00:26:21Major General Cranville, sir.

00:26:22Yes, sir.

00:26:23So you're Woodhouse, eh?

00:26:24Yes, sir.

00:26:25Glad to have you with me.

00:26:26Yes, sir.

00:26:27Glad to have you with us, Woodhouse.

00:26:28Thank you, sir.

00:26:29This is Major Bishop.

00:26:30How do you do, sir?

00:26:31How are you, Woodhouse?

00:26:32Have you got your movement orders?

00:26:33Yes, sir.

00:26:34I'm with us, sir, the Royal Engineer.

00:26:35Woodhouse, sir, the Royal Engineer.

00:26:36Woodhouse, sir, the Royal Engineer.

00:26:38Woodhouse, engineer.

00:26:39Yes, sir, that's the new staffer to assist me.

00:26:40Oh, yes.

00:26:41Show him in.

00:26:46Major General Cranville, sir?

00:26:47Yes.

00:26:48So you're Woodhouse, eh?

00:26:49Yes, sir.

00:26:50Glad to have you with us, Woodhouse.

00:26:51Thank you, sir.

00:26:52This is Major Bishop.

00:26:54How do you do, sir?

00:26:55How are you, Woodhouse?

00:26:56Have you got your movement orders?

00:26:58Tell you what, sir.

00:26:59Thanks.

00:27:00Had an eventual journey?

00:27:01Not particularly, sir.

00:27:02I came through Spain.

00:27:03France have got it in a turmoil.

00:27:04The line is chaotic.

00:27:05It had it as black as pitch after dark.

00:27:06You know, everybody there is suspected of being a spy.

00:27:07Our intelligence department is suspicious, too.

00:27:09They think the Willamstrasza has agents everywhere.

00:27:10Said the orderly told me that you caught a spy trying to slip through this morning.

00:27:12We did.

00:27:13We did.

00:27:14We did.

00:27:15We did.

00:27:16We did.

00:27:17We did.

00:27:18We did.

00:27:19We did.

00:27:20We did.

00:27:21We did.

00:27:22We did.

00:27:23We did.

00:27:24We did.

00:27:25We did.

00:27:26We did.

00:27:27We did.

00:27:28We've just come from the court-martial now.

00:27:29Court red-handed.

00:27:30Court Devils to be shot tomorrow morning.

00:27:33I couldn't have admired any pluck, though.

00:27:36Our intelligence department thought he might have accomplices on the rock.

00:27:39And they offered him his life if he betrayed a master spy.

00:27:42Of course, he denied everything.

00:27:44It is all right, Woodhurst.

00:27:47Now look here.

00:27:48There's something for you to learn.

00:27:50It's the sapper's job to keep it working.

00:27:56By Jove, that's clever, sir.

00:27:57How do you do it?

00:27:58There's a lot about this room you'll have to learn.

00:27:59The duplicate controls of all the harbour defenses are here.

00:28:00Where?

00:28:01Oh, concealed, of course.

00:28:02You'll soon learn all about our little tricks.

00:28:03Except the combination of that same.

00:28:04That's Bishop's secret.

00:28:05Yes, I hope no fool tries to meddle with that.

00:28:06I don't know.

00:28:07I don't know.

00:28:08I don't know.

00:28:09I don't know.

00:28:10I don't know.

00:28:11I don't know.

00:28:12I don't know.

00:28:13I don't know.

00:28:14I don't know.

00:28:15I don't know.

00:28:16I don't know.

00:28:17The duplicate controls of all the harbour defenses are here.

00:28:20Where?

00:28:21Oh, concealed, of course.

00:28:23You'll soon learn all about our little tricks.

00:28:26Except the combination of that same.

00:28:28That's Bishop's secret.

00:28:30Yes, I hope no fool tries to meddle with it.

00:28:33This would be a convenient method of suicide.

00:28:37I see Lady Crandall's having some friends to tea.

00:28:39Why don't you come over?

00:28:40Oh, thank you very much, sir.

00:28:42But this must be.

00:28:43Hadn't I got a change in the uniform?

00:28:45Oh, that's all right, my boy.

00:29:15into it?

00:29:16You're with a nuisance,

00:29:17right?

00:29:18No, no, no.

00:29:20We can have a Alsace on the dumb trip.

00:29:24We can have an endeavour,

00:29:27while she watched the men.

00:32:31Well?

00:32:33You haven't forgotten that service I did for you in India, Jerry?

00:32:36Of course not.

00:32:38You were paid for it, weren't you?

00:32:40Yes.

00:32:42What I've been hearing about you since then

00:32:44hasn't been altogether a... a complimentary.

00:32:48I hope it isn't true.

00:32:50Well, I did go to pieces a bit for a while.

00:32:53I was sick.

00:32:54I've been running him pretty hard, Dr. the past two years,

00:32:57but they can't keep me down much longer.

00:33:00I'm going to show them.

00:33:01I hope so, I'm sure.

00:33:04You've wanted to see me about.

00:33:06General.

00:33:07I'm an Englishman.

00:33:08You know that.

00:33:09I may be down and out,

00:33:11and my friends may not want to know me when we meet,

00:33:14but I'm English and I am loyal.

00:33:16Yes, yes, I'm sure.

00:33:17I've no doubt about that.

00:33:19I just wanted you to keep that in mind, General, while I talk.

00:33:23General.

00:33:26Remember Crane?

00:33:28That chap in Burma.

00:33:31Crane?

00:33:33No.

00:33:34You haven't forgotten him, General.

00:33:36You haven't forgotten how he lived in Burma a couple of years,

00:33:39mingling with the English,

00:33:41until someone suddenly found out that his real name was Kranz,

00:33:44and that he was a mighty unhealthy chap to have about?

00:33:48Surely, General.

00:33:49General.

00:33:50Yes, I remember him now.

00:33:52And there was Alice Broughton, too.

00:33:53I'll thank you not to speak about her.

00:33:54I'm sorry, General,

00:33:55but you thought she was all right

00:33:57until a couple of secret service men walked into Lady Langdon's drawing room

00:34:00and took her away.

00:34:01Some come warrior driving her out with it.

00:34:07General.

00:34:08You couldn't let me have a little drink, could you?

00:34:11One peg of decent scotch.

00:34:13Oh.

00:34:16Well, if it'll help you to talk more intelligently.

00:34:19I've just come from the Paris Hotel, too.

00:34:26There was a girl there today who had a private confat with Alvin.

00:34:32She said her name was Coogee.

00:34:36Well, what of it?

00:34:38Remember Crane, General.

00:34:41Remember Alice Broughton.

00:34:44What do you mean?

00:34:45What do I mean?

00:34:49I mean that this girl who causes her Coogee isn't Coogee at all.

00:34:52She is a spy.

00:34:54What?

00:34:57Almaty.

00:34:59Show this man out.

00:35:00Sir, help me, General.

00:35:01I'm telling you the truth.

00:35:02I know the real Ellen Coogee.

00:35:04I knew her in Paris.

00:35:06I can't prove what I say,

00:35:08but the wildest dreams of the Willemstrasse come true.

00:35:11They've got a girl here right in your quarters, General.

00:35:14I don't believe it.

00:35:17It's true all the same.

00:35:20I'm warning you.

00:35:21That's all I can do.

00:35:24Now.

00:35:27Now I'll go.

00:35:31Good day.

00:35:32Good-bye, Kappa.

00:35:50Good-bye, Sir George.

00:36:02I told you once I couldn't give you an explanation.

00:36:19And I still can't.

00:36:21But, Jane, it's different now.

00:36:23You mustn't call me Jane.

00:36:24My name is Ellen Coogee.

00:36:27Oh, now I understand.

00:36:30When I met you in Germany, you thought perhaps it would be a nice little adventure.

00:36:33A romantic adventure with a stranger.

00:36:36So you gave me an assumed name and then left me.

00:36:40You needn't have done that, Jane.

00:36:42You could have been honest with me.

00:36:43I was.

00:36:44Then why did you tell me your name was Jane Gershon?

00:36:48I can't tell you anything.

00:36:51But now you say your name is...

00:36:55Good heavens, Jane.

00:36:58You don't mean to tell me that Coogee is an assumed name?

00:37:00No.

00:37:01I am Ellen Coogee.

00:37:02I am Ellen Coogee.

00:37:03Do you realize what you're doing?

00:37:05Do you know what could happen to you?

00:37:07Only this morning they picked up a suspect at the barrier.

00:37:10I know.

00:37:11He was right in front of me when he was arrested.

00:37:13What happened?

00:37:14What did they do?

00:37:15If you're interested in knowing, he's to be shot first thing tomorrow morning.

00:37:20Oh.

00:37:21This is war, Jane.

00:37:23When that poor devil tried to get through here this morning,

00:37:25he didn't know that his own side had sold him out.

00:37:28It's too horrible.

00:37:29Horrible, yes.

00:37:30It is horrible.

00:37:31Once I had to attend the execution of a spy,

00:37:34he didn't die like a hero, poor fellow.

00:37:38He died like a dog.

00:37:41But don't you think, after all, a hero is one who,

00:37:44knowing he may die a dog's death, still carries on?

00:37:51I beg your pardon.

00:37:53Lady Crandall sends a comptonist to Captain Woodhouse.

00:37:56He requests the pleasure of his company at dinner.

00:38:01I'll be delighted.

00:38:09You were here as a junior officer, weren't you?

00:38:12I was, sir.

00:38:13Well, I want you to come over to dinner tonight.

00:38:17Yes, sir.

00:38:18But, er, this, er, chart of the mines.

00:38:20Well, never mind that.

00:38:21Let the new aide do it.

00:38:23This is even more important.

00:38:26I've just heard a ridiculous story, but, nevertheless, I can't afford to ignore it.

00:38:33Yes, sir?

00:38:34Well, what is it?

00:38:35Well, it's preposterous, of course, but...

00:38:39I've just been told that our guest, Lady Crandall's friend, is...

00:38:44is a spy.

00:38:48But you don't say...

00:38:50was it a reliable person who told you, sir?

00:38:53Oh, not at all, but...

00:38:55I shall have to investigate.

00:38:58I want you to help me cross-examine her.

00:39:01Very well, sir.

00:39:03Shall we, er, bring her in here?

00:39:05Oh, no, nothing official.

00:39:08We must do it in a more...

00:39:10casual fashion.

00:39:14What do you remember about 1907?

00:39:19Let me see.

00:39:21Cragen was governor.

00:39:24Cragen.

00:39:26Then she must remember his wife.

00:39:32That's a sort.

00:39:33What do you mean?

00:39:36You have a portrait of her hanging in your drawing room, sir.

00:39:39No one who ever knew her could fail to recognize it.

00:39:43Let's try her on Lady Evelyn.

00:39:46Splendid.

00:39:48That's a splendid idea.

00:39:50Come on over tonight.

00:39:52Out with you, sir.

00:39:56Tell me, why don't you like Gibraltar?

00:39:59It's too suggestive of war from death.

00:40:04Well, this is the quietest place imaginable.

00:40:07It used to be an old monastery.

00:40:09Oh, shh.

00:40:11It seems funny to think of a lot of old fat monks

00:40:13sitting around toasting their toes.

00:40:15It's relatively very fireplacey.

00:40:17Yes, it would be funny.

00:40:19But as a matter of fact, that fireplace has only been built five years.

00:40:23Five years?

00:40:25Yes. Lady Crandall told me so.

00:40:27Oh.

00:40:29What are you doing, Archie? Trying to frighten Ellen?

00:40:32Oh, I say.

00:40:34You know, Archie can lose his heart more easily than any boy I've ever known.

00:40:39Oh, he's in good company then.

00:40:42Is that sarcasm or admiration?

00:40:44Oh, no.

00:40:45You know, I've often told Archie, it's a good thing Lady Evelyn isn't here now.

00:40:49Oh, Lady Evelyn Cragan?

00:40:50Yes, Sir David Cragan's wife.

00:40:52Of course, yes.

00:40:53She was a terrible flirt.

00:40:55That's her portrait here.

00:40:56Can't you tell?

00:40:58Oh, yes.

00:41:00Yes, she has that come-hither look in her eyes.

00:41:03I, uh, hope you're enjoying yourself, Miss Cotier.

00:41:09Oh, she's having a splendid time, sir.

00:41:11I suppose you take care of that.

00:41:13Yes, sir.

00:41:15It's been so nice to have him come and dine with us.

00:41:17Believe me, Lady Crandall, it's a pleasure that I've missed.

00:41:20But you know how I'm, uh, chained to my desk.

00:41:23Like Atlas.

00:41:25Carrying the whole weight of the rock on your shoulders.

00:41:28Well, I shall hope to come more often,

00:41:30now that, uh, I have Woodhouse to divide the weight.

00:41:33Oh, uh, coffee or liqueur?

00:41:36A liqueur, if I may.

00:41:39Won't you join the Woodhouse?

00:41:40Yes, thanks, old man, I will.

00:41:42You know, uh, I'm surprised you don't remember, Mr. Cotier, Bishop.

00:41:49I'm afraid he doesn't remember the lanky young spirit once with me.

00:41:52He was a lieutenant then.

00:41:55And several firms have eyes only for the colonel's wife.

00:41:59I suppose the old rock looks familiar to you, Miss Cotier.

00:42:03But seven years is a long time.

00:42:06Let me see.

00:42:08You were here, sir, when, uh, Craigan was governor.

00:42:11Yes, yes, sir. Sir David Craigan.

00:42:14Did you know him, Woodhouse?

00:42:16Uh, no, no, I think not.

00:42:17Oh, he's a corking chap.

00:42:19He has big, blustering sort of a cellar.

00:42:24Wasn't he, sir?

00:42:26Why, no.

00:42:27As I remember, Sir David was a short, fat man.

00:42:30Rather bald.

00:42:32With a sabre scar.

00:42:36Of course, sir, he was.

00:42:38It's my mistake. How stupid of me.

00:42:40I must have been confusing him with someone else.

00:42:43I imagine so.

00:42:45The reason I remember Sir David so well

00:42:48is because I've had tea with him in his room many times.

00:42:51The place seems very much the same after seven years.

00:42:55Do you notice any change?

00:42:57Why, uh...

00:43:01Somehow this fireplace doesn't look familiar to me.

00:43:04By Jove, you have a good memory, Miss Cotier.

00:43:06It wasn't built then.

00:43:07Though a woman is privileged to forget.

00:43:10It's sometimes very important

00:43:13that she have a good memory.

00:43:15Oh, there is.

00:43:17Then you, uh,

00:43:19you must remember Lady Craigan.

00:43:21How could I ever forget?

00:43:23Seven years or seven.

00:43:25No one could ever forget her.

00:43:27So it was the General's wife,

00:43:29and not the Colonel.

00:43:32But she was a wonderful woman.

00:43:34Yes, indeed.

00:43:35Do you think her picture is like her, Miss Cotier?

00:43:40It's perfect.

00:43:41Simply perfect.

00:43:45I always thought the hair was glory.

00:43:48And the eyes.

00:43:50What an expression.

00:43:51Tell me.

00:43:52Does it still make your heart beat back?

00:43:53No.

00:43:54No.

00:43:56No.

00:43:57No.

00:43:59No.

00:44:01No.

00:44:03It's perfect.

00:44:05Simply perfect.

00:44:07I always thought the hair was glory.

00:44:10And the eyes.

00:44:12What an expression.

00:44:13What a expression!

00:44:18Tell me, does it still make your heart beat faster, Rachel?

00:44:24Well, yes, it's a dashed good likeness.

00:44:30For my part, I think Lady Evelyn brought the greatest credit to the British Army.

00:44:35Just think, one small woman capturing an entire garrison.

00:44:39And I always thought you felt it was insignificant.

00:44:43And it is.

00:44:44To the ordinary invader.

00:44:54Look, Sir George.

00:44:56Ships.

00:44:58Dozens of them, all grey and wonderful.

00:45:02What does it mean, Sir George?

00:45:04That's the British Mediterranean squadron, my dear.

00:45:06Wonderful, wonderful.

00:45:09There's the power and the pride of England.

00:45:12Gives one quite a thrill, doesn't it?

00:45:15Yes, it probably thrills our friend, the enemy, in a rather different way.

00:45:21You know, it always gives me quite a homesick tug to see those grim old dogs.

00:45:26Grim old dogs.

00:45:27I haven't been to the home to the little island in four years.

00:45:31It seems as though the old rocks were to have quite an awakening.

00:45:34Yes.

00:45:35And you are just the kind of girl to do it.

00:45:38Ah, ah, ah.

00:45:40Charlie.

00:45:41Yes, sir?

00:45:42Go and find out the latest reports from the fleet.

00:45:44At what time they were ready to sail.

00:45:46Yes, sir.

00:45:47Well, Bishop, and what do you think of Miss Curti?

00:45:59Oh, that's all right, he knew her before.

00:46:02And it's just as well that he should know what we suspected, even though I am now convinced that I was wrong.

00:46:07I'm not so sure.

00:46:10Well, she knew about the fireplace.

00:46:13And she recognized Lady Evelyn's portrait.

00:46:15What's the trouble, sir?

00:46:16Gosh.

00:46:17A fellow I shouldn't have listened to.

00:46:19Came to me with a story that your friend wasn't Miss Curti at all.

00:46:22What a German spy.

00:46:26Ha, ha, ha.

00:46:29Ha, ha, ha.

00:46:31Ha, ha, ha.

00:46:36Oh, Jane, I'm glad I found you.

00:46:50I've been looking for you.

00:46:52I wanted to speak to you alone.

00:46:54I wanted you to explain.

00:46:56Explain?

00:46:58Captain Woodhouse, I think it's you who won't be an explanation.

00:47:02I don't understand.

00:47:03You never told me you were an officer in the British Army.

00:47:07I made no attempt to conceal the facts.

00:47:09If you didn't, you were very reticent about it.

00:47:13Jane, if I was, it was because I had a definite reason.

00:47:16It was very difficult for you to understand me when I told you I had a reason.

00:47:20But that's it.

00:47:22I believe you.

00:47:23I'm willing to take your word.

00:47:25That's because I care for you.

00:47:27And I want you to care for me.

00:47:29I do.

00:47:30Jane, if you do, you must promise me this one thing.

00:47:34If you don't know, you can't possibly know the risk you're running.

00:47:37I wouldn't ask you if it weren't for the fact that I love you.

00:47:40But here you're running a terrible risk.

00:47:42If anything should happen, why...

00:47:44You must promise to do as I ask.

00:47:47What is it?

00:47:49Leave the rock as fast as you can, by the next boat.

00:47:55Well?

00:47:56I can't.

00:47:59So that's your answer.

00:48:03Please try to understand.

00:48:05I understand.

00:48:07Perfectly.

00:48:09Well, what is it?

00:48:11Excuse me, sir.

00:48:13Major Bishop requests that you see me immediately in room B.

00:48:15Very well, I'll come at once.

00:48:17Your answer is still the same?

00:48:32Good night, Miss Curtius.

00:48:38Good night, Miss Curtius.

00:48:40Good night, Miss Kirk here.

00:48:50First?

00:48:52Ah, there you are, Woodhouse.

00:48:54What wanted you wanted me to do, sir?

00:48:56Land of character.

00:48:58Here's a chart of the harbour and straits.

00:49:02This is the plan showing the distribution of the mines.

00:49:06Please check them,

00:49:08and send them out to the fleet immediately.

00:49:10Right, Your Honor.

00:49:12Well, good night.

00:49:14I'm off to see the admin.

00:49:16The fleet shows the door.

00:49:18Good night, sir.

00:49:24I'm sorry, lady.

00:49:26You can't go in that room.

00:49:28But it's very important.

00:49:30No, lady, orders is orders.

00:49:32What's the trouble?

00:49:34I have something to say to you.

00:49:38All right, then, Trish.

00:49:58That is a beautiful sight.

00:50:00Each one is a little world within itself.

00:50:04But tell me, why are the lights blinking all the time?

00:50:06They're sending messages.

00:50:08Do they send messages all the time?

00:50:12Jane, you didn't come in here to ask questions.

00:50:16You said you had something important to tell me.

00:50:20I hope you think it's important.

00:50:24Well, what is it?

00:50:28I came to tell you this.

00:50:30I love you.

00:50:32Jane!

00:50:34It isn't easy for me to tell you this, Eric.

00:50:36To swallow my pride and follow you.

00:50:40But I couldn't bear to see you leave me like that.

00:50:42I just had to tell you.

00:50:44Darling.

00:50:46Captain Woodhouse.

00:50:48Miss Goethe.

00:50:50What's the meaning of this?

00:50:52How did you get in here?

00:50:54I let her in, sir.

00:50:55I...

00:50:56It was my fault, Sir George.

00:50:57I insisted upon coming in.

00:50:59So, because you insisted, Captain Woodhouse broke the rules.

00:51:03You must be a very eloquent persuader, Miss Goethe.

00:51:07And as for you, Woodhouse, this is hardly an auspicious beginning.

00:51:11Chairman.

00:51:12Yes, sir.

00:51:13Will you please escort Miss Goethe to her quarters?

00:51:15With pleasure, sir.

00:51:17And when you go,

00:51:19you will be able to come.

00:51:21You will be able to come.

00:51:23You will be able to come.

00:51:25You will be able to come.

00:51:27You will be able to come.

00:51:28Where will you go?

00:51:29Lock this room.

00:51:30Yes, sir.

00:51:38Captain Woodhouse.

00:51:39I wish to talk to you.

00:51:54I say, the...

00:51:55the old gentleman certainly was boiling.

00:51:57Do you suppose he's going to be very severe with Captain Woodhouse?

00:52:00Well, I...

00:52:01I don't know how severe he'll be,

00:52:02but I wouldn't like to be in Woodhouse's boots for the next half hour.

00:52:06Although I...

00:52:07I wouldn't have minded being in his boots for the last half hour.

00:52:10You know, I don't blame Woodhouse.

00:52:11I'd let you go anywhere you want.

00:52:13I feel just like a prisoner.

00:52:14And you're my guard taking me to myself.

00:52:16Yes.

00:52:17Isn't it jolly?

00:52:18Why?

00:52:19Why?

00:52:20Well, I...

00:52:21I've never had you to myself for five minutes yet.

00:52:22Some founder always comes barging in.

00:52:26Now that you're in my official charge, I've got you alone at last.

00:52:27But only from here to my room.

00:52:28Oh, that's all right.

00:52:29He certainly ordered me to take you to your room.

00:52:31But he didn't say how long I was to take...

00:52:35Taking you.

00:52:36Oh, I see.

00:52:37Well, I mean, we might, uh,

00:52:38sort of delay down the way.

00:52:39We might what?

00:52:40Yes.

00:52:41Yes.

00:52:42Oh, I see.

00:52:43Oh, I see.

00:52:44Well, I mean, we might, uh,

00:52:45sort of delay down the way.

00:52:46We might what?

00:52:47Yes.

00:52:48Yes.

00:52:49It's not a lie.

00:52:50It's a lie.

00:52:51Yes.

00:52:52Yes.

00:52:53Yes.

00:52:54Well, I see.

00:52:55Yes.

00:52:56Yes.

00:52:57Yes.

00:52:58Yes.

00:52:59Yes.

00:53:00Yes.

00:53:01Dilly-dally. Loiter. Rally round, huh?

00:53:05You know, I know a lovely place. Here.

00:53:09We might listen to the nightingales sing.

00:53:12Are the nightingales on Gibraltar?

00:53:14No, but there are monkeys.

00:53:17Don't you remember?

00:53:19Why, Gibraltar's overrun with monkeys.

00:53:21I remember any kind of...

00:53:31Oh, look. We can watch the fleet, too.

00:53:36Yes. Rather pretty, isn't it?

00:53:39It's more than pretty. It's beautiful.

00:53:42It's hard to think of them being fighting machines.

00:53:45They look so peaceful now.

00:53:48Somehow their blinking lights remind me of fireflies dancing.

00:53:52Yes. I like watching the blinking lights, too.

00:53:57Let's sit down.

00:54:01I'd love to see them when they spring to light.

00:54:04When they sail out to sea in formation.

00:54:07It must be beautiful.

00:54:09I'd like to stay up all night and wait until they sail.

00:54:13Topping idea.

00:54:15I'll stay up all night with you.

00:54:17It is.

00:54:19They sail tomorrow at dawn.

00:54:21At dawn?

00:54:22Yes. Six o'clock.

00:54:24The dawn round here is frightfully early.

00:54:28Yes.

00:54:30Do you know what makes tonight specially beautiful for me?

00:54:38No.

00:54:40You.

00:54:41No.

00:54:42Yes.

00:54:43I feel very much honored that I should be so important in the life of Lieutenant the Honorable Archibald Plantagenet Chumlay.

00:54:51Oh, Miss Courtier.

00:54:53Alice.

00:54:54I mean Helen.

00:54:55Helen.

00:54:56Please don't drag me.

00:54:58You know I'm dreadfully sincere.

00:55:00Yes.

00:55:01You know, ever since you arrived here, I've been walking about in a daze.

00:55:06You know, you are possibly the most blue eyes I've ever seen.

00:55:11Blue.

00:55:12Yes.

00:55:13And I just adore blue eyes.

00:55:15Yes.

00:55:16I love blue eyes.

00:55:19Would you mind going away, old man?

00:55:21Oh.

00:55:22Oh.

00:55:23Thanks.

00:55:24Thanks.

00:55:25Thanks so much.

00:55:26You know, ever since you came here, I've been walking about all goofy.

00:55:30You know, you are possibly the bluest eyes I've ever seen.

00:55:35Yes.

00:55:36I adore blue eyes.

00:55:38And yours are the bluest in the whole wide world.

00:55:42Oh.

00:55:43Darling.

00:55:44Now, now, Archie.

00:55:45Oh, but Helen, you are so gorgeous.

00:55:47What if Sir George should see you now?

00:55:50Oh, bother Sir George.

00:55:53Helen.

00:55:54No, but really, I have to go to my room.

00:55:56Won't you take me?

00:55:57Lady Crandall is waiting for me.

00:55:59Is she really?

00:56:00Yes.

00:56:01Why didn't you tell me?

00:56:02You're so fascinating, I almost forgot.

00:56:04Oh, there you are, laughing at me again.

00:56:06Come along.

00:56:15Well, I brought you back safely.

00:56:18Much as I regret it.

00:56:20Good night, Archie, and thank you.

00:56:24Good night.

00:56:29Why, my Dad.

00:56:30Got some genocide.

00:56:32No

00:56:45Oh, I say.

00:56:46...

00:56:48...

00:56:51...

00:56:53So, let's get started.

00:57:23So, let's get started.

00:57:53So, let's get started.

00:58:23So, let's get started.

00:58:53So, let's get started.

00:59:23So, let's get started.

00:59:53So, let's get started.

01:00:23So, let's get started.

01:00:25So, let's get started.

01:00:27So, let's get started.

01:00:29So, let's get started.

01:00:35So, let's get started.

01:00:41You do this as skillfully as you played that tune.

01:00:49You know, the one written in 1893.

01:00:52You, you, you, you, you, you, you, you can't be number 54.

01:01:00Yes, I am number 54.

01:01:01I am number 54.

01:01:06Oh!

01:01:08Please.

01:01:09Oh, please get away from here.

01:01:12Please. Oh, please get away from here. Before you're seen.

01:01:17I'll put the key back and no one will ever suspect.

01:01:19No, Jane. I tried before to get you to go.

01:01:22And now I beg you again to give up this.

01:01:25Don't waste time. Please hurry, for my sake.

01:01:28For your sake? But I've always heard that you, number 1893,

01:01:33were the most fearless and ruthless woman in the service.

01:01:36Oh, Eric, please go. I have told you I love you.

01:01:40If you love me.

01:01:42Do you think I could leave you here to bear the brunt of this alone?

01:01:44No.

01:01:54Eric, you couldn't do this.

01:01:57Come here, dear. Look.

01:02:00You couldn't send those sleeping men to their death.

01:02:04Trapped like rats. Mangled. Tortured.

01:02:10Drowned.

01:02:12The man who loved me couldn't do that.

01:02:17Now you're talking like the woman I love.

01:02:20Not like the ruthless 1893.

01:02:23But why?

01:02:25Why are you pleading for these men?

01:02:28I'm not pleading for them.

01:02:30But for you.

01:02:32Why?

01:02:33Because I love you.

01:02:34I love you more than my duty.

01:02:35More than my life.

01:02:36And there's only one end for the man who does this thing.

01:02:39Death.

01:02:40With his back against the wall.

01:02:41Why, Jane?

01:02:42Jane.

01:02:43Jane.

01:02:44Jane.

01:02:45What am I doing?

01:02:46Jane.

01:02:47Jane.

01:02:48What am I doing?

01:02:49Don't you realize that what you're asking me to do is impossible?

01:02:50What am I doing?

01:02:51Don't you realize that what you're asking me to do is impossible?

01:02:55But you can't go on with us, Eric. It's all too horrible.

01:03:08What are the lives of those fine hunts to me?

01:03:10If I'd fail in this way, I'd be able to see them.

01:03:13Why?

01:03:14Jane.

01:03:15What am I doing?

01:03:16Don't you realize that what you're asking me to do is impossible?

01:03:18But you can't go on with us, Eric.

01:03:20It's all too horrible.

01:03:21What are the lives of those fine hunts to me?

01:03:24If I fail in this, it means my life.

01:03:26I'm not like Belky, who sold us out.

01:03:29And for a woman, too.

01:03:30He's to be shot at dawn.

01:03:32Oh, but Eric...

01:03:33Oh, the time's getting short.

01:03:35The guard will soon be here to change centuries.

01:03:37You go to your room at once and let me get this thing done.

01:03:39I'm not going to let you do it, Eric.

01:03:42Our love...

01:03:43Love, you speak of love.

01:03:44You were treated to the fatherland.

01:03:46The love of such a woman as you is an insult.

01:03:50You call my love an insult.

01:03:52So, this is the real, Eric.

01:03:56Then you'll see another side of the woman you tricked.

01:03:59You said 1893 was fearless and ruthless.

01:04:02I am.

01:04:04And unless you give me back that key,

01:04:07I'll kill you.

01:04:10But, Jane, you couldn't do that.

01:04:14You wouldn't force me.

01:04:16But if you do, you leave me only one alternative

01:04:18to raise the alarm.

01:04:20What's that?

01:04:30Be careful!

01:04:32The firing squad.

01:04:34For Belki.

01:04:36Ready!

01:04:38Ready!

01:04:39Fire!

01:04:39You see, Eric, that's what will happen to you.

01:04:53I couldn't stand it.

01:04:55The man I loved couldn't die like that.

01:05:02I couldn't let you feel that I died like...

01:05:05like Belky.

01:05:08Give me that, baby.

01:05:09Do you know what you're doing?

01:05:15Do you realize that you're sending me to my death?

01:05:17Do you know what you're doing?

01:05:19Do you know what you're doing?

01:05:23Do you know what you're doing?

01:05:25I'll be there, Zane.

01:05:50Eric!

01:05:52Eric!

01:05:53Eric!

01:06:03Eric!

01:06:23Eric!

01:06:53Amadi!

01:07:03I have been listening to you and...

01:07:07...that weekly...

01:07:10...watching you both.

01:07:14You made a pitiful creature...

01:07:17...out of a brave man...

01:07:21...and a useful one.

01:07:26You sent him to his death.

01:07:31And as he died...

01:07:35...so will you die.

01:07:46But first...

01:07:48...you will see the man you pitied.

01:07:52As you so aptly put it...

01:07:55...an angle...

01:07:57...tortured...

01:08:00...enground.

01:08:21But you can't be number...

01:08:26Yes!

01:08:27I am number 54.

01:08:30You...

01:08:31...Sir George's faithful servant.

01:08:33Yes...

01:08:34...I...

01:08:35...Sir George's faithful servant...

01:08:37...have waited ten years for this.

01:08:40But Eric!

01:08:41He was sent to help me...

01:08:42...and you killed him...

01:08:44...for nothing.

01:08:52I don't need to tell you what these are.

01:08:57This one...

01:09:00...is the master control to the mines...

01:09:02...which will destroy the fleet...

01:09:05...and bring death...

01:09:07...to the men I hate.

01:09:09And your death also.

01:09:11You fool...

01:09:13...your death...

01:09:15...your hand will be found in the control...

01:09:18...and I...

01:09:19...a mighty...

01:09:20...would have shot a spy.

01:09:24But...

01:09:25...too late.

01:09:33Thirty seconds...

01:09:34...all the relays will be set...

01:09:35...for the mines under the fleet.

01:09:37...you...

01:10:37Oh, there you are, sir.

01:10:43What?

01:10:48A mountain.

01:10:54What's happening?

01:10:56General Crandall, your servant was an enemy spy.

01:11:01I want you to understand that no matter what Miss Kirchier may have done,

01:11:05you can now thank her for the safety of the fleet.

01:11:09Come in here.

01:11:11Sir George, it's going to Eric, Captain Woodhouse, that the fleet is safe.

01:11:24Please don't be too hard on him.

01:11:29But don't you know?

01:11:33Hey, Joe, the intelligent department certainly have a peculiar way of working.

01:11:37They didn't let me know who you were until this morning.

01:11:40I don't understand, sir.

01:11:45You're both working for the same cause.

01:11:49Miss Jane Gerson of the British Secret Service,

01:11:52allow me to present Captain Woodhouse of the Intelligence Department.

01:11:56But, Eric, why did you let me suffer so?

01:12:01But, dear, your life was in danger every minute.

01:12:06I saw his pistol behind the curtain.

01:12:08There was nothing else that I could do.

01:12:12Jane, darling,

01:12:14I've so much to say to you.

01:12:16I've so much to say to you.
