(Man whistling)

34 on the red even.

Would you mind changing your tune?

Well, yes, I'll stop.

Perhaps I can bring you a bit of luck,

Captain.

Good luck or bad luck?

Good luck.

Try number... 27.

27?

(Man) 21 on the black.

27. 27?

27 hasn't a chance.

What will you give me if it loses?

- Anything you like.

- Suppose we start with a kiss?

Push that over onto 27.

I hope it loses.

Ready?

26 on the black even.

When do I collect?

Any time you like.

- Good night.

- Good night.

Let's have a drink before we go.

Two Bacardis.

Do you like to gamble?

I like anything that excites me.

I'm glad you came along.

I was just becoming bored.

That's one of the reasons

I think I could like you.

You excite me.

You know, most people think of death

as a very ugly old man.

Thank you, sir.

I think of death as a beautiful young woman

wearing flowers.

- Roses?

- Well, she might be wearing roses.

Have a cigarette.

- What makes you think of death?

- Hm. Was I thinking of death?

Two Bacardis.

I have the feeling we've met before.

Have we? When?

When? Let me see,

when did we meet before?

Have you ever been wounded?

Not me. Aviators are rarely wounded.

We fly or are killed.

How about that kiss, lady?

Kiss? I was only joking.

Oh, what a charming sense of humour!

Well, good night.

You were no match for this man,

who is far too clever

to be trapped by a woman.

Your experience was insufficient

to deal with him alone.

You had no right to assume responsibility

for the arrest of a man

who is worth an entire Russian division.

Your plane takes off in an hour.

Be careful with your new assignment.

(# Plays Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata)

(Clock chimes)

(Music stops)

Good evening.

I've come for that kiss.

You may have been joking about it,

but I wasn't.

- Don't you like to be kissed?

- You are so powerful.

Don't you like powerful men?

I am glad you escaped.

Your untimely death

might have disturbed my conscience.

Nonsense, it's all in the game.

Had I caught you in my country,

I'd have had you shot without hesitation.

But we're both alive yet,

and you can make my last few hours

in Vienna very pleasant.

Are you going to leave Vienna so soon?

I'm afraid I'll have to,

or give up my profession.

It's become too dangerous.

Perhaps I can persuade you to stay.

I really don't need persuasion.

You're not going to turn me over

because of a kiss?

Are you going to shoot me yourself?

Yes, if you leave me no other choice.

Your conscience, apparently,

is not going to be disturbed this time.

Stay where you are.

Shoot quickly,

or I'll take that plaything away from you.

Stay where you are.

(Gun clicks)

I think I removed the cartridges.

This would have been

quite a feather in your cap, wouldn't it?

Do you like this masquerade

as well as my last one?

- You are still a clown.

- I'm a colonel in the Russian Army.

When necessary, I fly across the line,

and play the clown, or the Austrian officer.

I am a soldier, but you bring something

into war that doesn't belong in it.

You trick men into death with your body.

Give me a kiss.

You're a cheat and a liar.

Why don't you stay here?

Perhaps I don't always cheat and lie.

If you kept me here another minute,

I'd not only be in danger of losing my life,

but of falling in love with you, you devil!

A few thousand feet higher up

we might find better weather, but I doubt it.

And now your division is to attack

from S-32 to V-29.

Your objective is the railhead at T-18.

That carries us through the fifth day.

On the sixth day, your division, with the 63rd

and 74th, attack from N-17 to R-21.

Your objective will be

the heights at Q-11 to Q-15.

Any questions?

Does the attack begin on the ninth?

Yes, at five o'clock in the morning.

Four days from now.

That's all, gentlemen.

Come on down here.

Did anyone ever tell you how pretty you are?

Come here.

Fresh from the country, aren't you?

(Shrieks)

Do they work you very hard

in this magnificent establishment?

Are you going to be off duty pretty soon?

You're not going to see

some young lieutenant tonight, are you?

Captain?

A major, perhaps?

Then we'll start with a colonel.

What's the matter? You want a general?

I don't care who it is.

I don't want anyone to enter

or leave these headquarters

without a pass issued by me.

That woman is in this hotel.

(# Men singing jolly song)

- Count ten.

- I don't want to count ten any more.

Count ten.

One, two, three, four, five...

One, two, three, four, five...

One, two, three, four, five, six,

seven, eight...

Eight, eight, nine...

Ten!

Ah.

Meow!

Me-owwww!

Come on out here.

Come on out.

Oh, she's lost.

Meow!

Come down here.

It's warm up here. Me-oww!

Come down here or get out.

Don't be angry.

All right.

Meow!

- Meow!

- Are you coming down or not?

- Count ten.

- Haven't I counted ten before?

- No.

- One, two, three...

I'm not going to count any more.

I'm tired... I'm tired.

Meow. Meow.

Meow. Meow.

(Cat meows)

(Distant voices)

Let me see a list of your maids.

- Who are the maids on the second floor?

- Day maid's Olga. Night maid's Catherine.

Catherine, eh? Is she a new maid here?

Came three days ago.

I change maids all the time.

Can't keep them.

Too many officers quartered here.

- What do you know about Catherine?

- Nothing.

Papers are all correct.

Anything wrong again?

No.

Take your hat off

when you talk to a Russian officer,

if you know what's good for you.

(Knocking persists)

Corporal, force the door.

Who's been with you?

Office of the Guard!

Get the Office of the Guard.

Have that woman brought to my room.

Now you can tell all that to the Colonel.

Get in there.

Everybody makes mistakes.

And you carry a cat.

It has brought me good luck, so far.

- Do you call this good luck?

- I don't know yet.

Besides, I am not allowed

to love anything else.

(Cat meows)

I like your masquerade.

Sit down.

I'm sorry, I'll have to search you, X-27.

Take your things off.

Is it warm enough in here? Don't catch cold.

Hm. Music!

- Did you write this?

- Yes.

Your own composition, eh?

I don't use invisible ink.

What do you call this masterpiece?

I haven't named it yet.

May I suggest you call it

The Dance Of The Russian Colonels?

Not bad. Shall I go on with my undressing?

I'm in the mood for music first.

- Would you play this?

- If you furnish the piano.

I'll furnish the piano, and the audience.

After you.

I wish I could read notes.

(# Plays lively melody)

(Strikes keys)

Let me play it for you.

(Plays series of jarring notes)

I don't know what this code means.

But I have an idea that each note might

mean the death of a thousand soldiers.

(# Plays sombre melody)

My poor composition.

I worked so hard on it, and now it's in ashes.

- I destroy everything dangerous to Russia.

- I'm next, I suppose?

You know the fate of spies

when they're caught.

How many more hours

does my fate allow me?

You have until dawn.

This is quite a feather in your cap, isn't it?
