- Impossible.

He hasn't done anything. He hasn't!

I know he hasn't done anything.

Don't be so difficult! Johan! Johan!

All I ask is to speak to him. Johan!

Aha. The mayor's son again.

I can't remember inviting you.

Get lost!

Well?

Bomb the town hall.

- Dad will like that.

Then we have to attack. Come on!

What else? We have to do something.

We can't just leave him!

I'll see what I can do.

- I'll go with you.

No. Stay with your mother.

Look after her.

Be careful.

Uncle Ben.

I'Il do my best.

I promise.

Uncle Ben.

Mum, where is Erica?

Mum?

Erica!

They're not.

No. Dad will be free.

Uncle Ben will help.

All on his own?

- Who says he is alone?

Let's go home. Mum is alone.

No. That's not necessary.

You'll get shot. You die.

He'll be freed tomorrow.

I did all I could.

Michiel?

Right turn!

Order arms.

Let go of me. I know who did it.

Are you coming?

Michiel?

Is he coming too?

Of course.

Then I won't go.

- Michiel.

It's his fault.

It was the Germans. Not Uncle Ben.

God save the Queen.

Jesus.

That's for Jack.

He has to be moved, Michiel.

I want to ask Uncle Ben...

- No.

Tomorrow he can take the ferry

at 3 o'clock. That's safe.

He has to go to Zwolle.

Sorry.

Michiel.

Can we help maybe?

Claus, you take the left.

Push it under...

One, two and push!

Come on out. You have to help!

He doesn't speak German.

Ah! Schafter! Give us a hand!

What's wrong with the wheel?

- No idea how to fit it.

Let me have a go.

Lower it slowly...

I decide when we go.

Come on.

Germans shot him. Not you.

Sarah!

Sarah!

Inside, quick.

British military, here in the shed?

A kid from the RAF?

He has to leave as quickly as possible.

What's the plan?

Michiel?

Who's in charge?

Me...

You didn't involve anyone else?

You don't know

what you're up to, do you?

From now on throw snowballs

or bully girls.

I'll take over.

Erica, Jack's gone.

Michiel.

There are checks everywhere.

Michiel...

- What? Go on then!

Bastard...

Ah, here you are.

Fortunately it's nearly all over.

Dirk should never have used you.

See you later. Okay?

I never mentioned Dirk...

In the Name of the German People.

Michiel!

- Bastard.

Michiel, put it down.

- "Dirk should never have used you. "

I never mentioned Dirk.

I didn't tell anyone.

He told me about the raid.

He was arrested.

He also talked about Bertus.

He was arrested too.

Look, he works for the Germans.

The Russians will be here soon.

Then we'll see who's occupier

and who's liberator.

Michiel.

Can have a cigarette?

Where's that resistance of yours?

Hey. Michiel.

Michiel, I want to make a deaI.

Let me go and I'll leave Jack alone.

- Oh, just like Dirk and Bertus?

Terrible things happen in all wars.

- And Dad?

I had your father free.

Shut up!

- Really.

I arranged it.

They'd take someone else at random.

But your father refused.

It was his choice.

Think about it, Michiel.

I'm a bastard, but I'm your uncle.

I always protected you.

Your father was going to help me.

Stand up.

Stand up.

Germans.

Mum!

Michiel!

Here you are.

Why don't you go outside?

Why don't you come to the party?

You want a go?
