Allo Allo

'Allo 'Allo is the story of a French cafe owner during World War II and his various entanglements with the German officers who are controlling the town, the French resistance which is attempting to smuggle downed British airmen back to England, and the beautiful waitresses who work for him and want him to leave his wife. All of these various themes are woven into a tapestry of plot that extends from episode to episode, making 'Allo 'Allo one of the few examples of a "continuous sitcom" ever produced - each episode follows logically from the last, making it advisable to watch the show in order to enjoy the show to its fullest.

Allo Allo 1x00 Pilot

Airdate: 1982-00-00

Two escaping British airmen are sent by the French Resistance to hide in Cafe Rene, a small French dining establishment run by Rene Artois, an innkeeper seemingly able to skirt death and survive during wartime, mainly by offering the bedroom services of his waitresses to the Germans in return for supplies otherwise unavailable. Michelle Dubois, a member of the Lifeline of the French Resistance, sends the two airmen to hide in the Cafe (their new safehouse) - and supplies Rene with a hidden (but "not very convenient") radio to contact the Resistance if necessary, and the services of Mr. Leclerc, a forger, to forge papers for the airmen in their escape. On the other hand, the Germans are busy looting the town of its remaining valuables, including "the first cuckoo clock ever made" and the painting of the "Fallen Madonna" by Van Clomp. Meanwhile, Rene attempts to carry on affairs with his waitresses without letting his tone-deaf wife catch on, deal with his hard-of-hearing mother-in-law, and work on hiding the British airmen though neither speak the other's language. Walking a fine line between working with the Germans and working with the Resistance, Rene stays alive as war rages all around. A marvelous beginning to a fabulous series! This one has the classic "I have no matches" spy exchange, the fantastic "I can't speak English; I can't speak French" scene, the hilarious "clock in the pants" bit, and the poignant "Festival of the Onionsellers".

Allo Allo 1x01 The British Are Coming

Airdate: 1984-00-00

The Colonel & the Captain mull over their situation and decide they should probably hand over Rene and the painting to the Gestapo in order to get rid of Herr Flick. But Rene convinces them that they could hand over a forged copy of the painting instead (with the assistance of a conveniently-located forger), and gets them to lend their uniforms to the escaping British officers so the Brits can take the painting to England to be forged. Meanwhile, everyone keeps handing Rene poison pills "to make it easier", Herr Flick decides his relationship with Helga should include an intimate dinner in Rene's back room, and Hans figures out that putting cheese in one's ears improves the sound of Madame Edith's singing.

Allo Allo 1x02 Pigeon Post

Airdate: 1984-00-00

The resistance decides to use a carrier pigeon to let London know about the missing uniforms, since the Germans are hiding in the room with the secret radio. They intend to have London make new German uniforms for the German officers, since the British airmen have been captured by the Communist Resistance, the other resistance group. Meanwhile, as the French resistance mount an attack on the Communist Resistance headquarters, the airmen, fearful of being discovered in the uniforms and shot as spies, strip and burn the offending garments, making it back in scarecrow clothes. But when the German officers disguise themselves as onionsellers to be able to leave the room of Edith's mother, Herr Flick finds them. Explaining quickly that they are attempting to infiltrate the French peasantry, the Colonel leads Herr Flick to compliment him on the idea, and starts Flick thinking about how to join in the scheme. But now that the Germans are no longer in Fanny's room, Rene can use the radio to order the new uniforms and they put the pigeon plan on hold, hiding the pigeons in the kitchen. But when Edith is asked to cook up something special and Herr Flick and Helga join them all in the cafe disguised as onionsellers, they end up noticing a certain something on their dinner's leg... Also in this episode, Monsieur Leclerc discovers that Madame Edith's mother is his long-lost childhood love, Fanny; Herr Flick shows Helga his private quarters, allows her to kiss him, and displays the latest Berlin fashion in undergarments; and Maria is disguised as a young schoolboy to fetch the pigeons.

Allo Allo 1x03 Saville Row To The Rescue

Airdate: 1984-00-00

The Colonel & the Captain and Herr Flick are all disguised as onion sellers while the German uniforms are being remade by the Jewish tailors of London. Michelle delivers a bottle of nitroglycerin disguised as a bottle of Bols Gin to hide in the Cafe until they come to fetch it that night to blow up a German railway. But thinking it's gin, Edith begins spreading the nitro around - to her mother and the hens in the back. Although they attempt to get their spare uniforms, the Colonel and the Captain find that they have been sent to Paris for cleaning and are not available. Which makes them desperate, as they have found out that General Von Klinkerhoffen, the famously hard-nosed German General, is coming to visit the next morning. The German officers insist on joining Rene and company when they go out on their expedition that night - the Resistance is heading out to blow up the railway with the gin, but first they intend to rendezvous with a plane from England, which is reportedly bringing the new German uniforms, and will take back the painting (to be forged) and the two airmen (effecting their escape). Luckily, the Germans being along is a help when they need to get past an unexpected sentry; unluckily, the plane that arrives is carrying not the uniforms, but a tailor to do a fitting - and is only a two-seater, so it can't take the airmen back with it...

Allo Allo 1x04 The Execution

Airdate: 1984-00-00

In the wake of the failed attempt to get the airmen out by plane, the Resistance decide to blow up one of the German railways. To do this, they intend to use the remaining nitroglycerine; but Hans mistakes it for gin (gee, I wonder why?) and nearly drinks it - but in his panic of discovery he accidentally blows up the railway himself! The noise draws the Germans, who capture Rene, Yvette, and the peasant-disguised Colonel and Captain. As Helga, Leclerc, and Edith each attempt to help the gang escape, General Von Klinkerhoffen arrives in town and demands that the Colonel and the Captain (now freshly attired in their spare uniforms) have the only known saboteur shot. This means - Rene's death by firing squad, with Lieutenant Gruber in charge of the squad!

Airdate: 1984-00-00

Having cheated death, Rene is now masquerading as his own twin brother as Edith has moved the airmen into the now-empty henhouse out back of the cafe. Herr Flick visits the Colonel and the Captain and chews them out for not having taken down the names of the peasants at the execution - therefore, they will have to attend the funeral and get names there. Meanwhile, M'sieur Alphonse the Undertaker, comes to measure Rene's body for the coffin (and charge tons of money for the coffin, nameplate, handles, etc), and Herr Flick attends the funeral. But the Resistance leave some land mines with the Cafe staff, and they hide them in an unfortunate place, which leads to a meeting between Herr Flick and a pile of flying dirt...

Allo Allo 1x06 Reds Nick Colonel

Airdate: 1984-00-00

It is Colonel Von Strohm's birthday, and Rene is hosting a party for him. The airmen have moved indoors and are hiding under the kitchen table, with their heads under serving covers. But as they are celebrating, the Colonel and the Captain are kidnapped by the Communist Resistance in retaliation for having killed Rene. While searching for the now-missing officers, Herr Flick begins interrogating the peasants in the cafe - and Rene and Michelle remove the radio and codebook in case the Gestapo search the cafe. As the DeGaulle Resistance (Michelle's group) prepare to rescue the officers, and as the Communist Resistance bring in Rene to shoot his "brother's" murderers, the parachute drop of the German uniforms and the real & forged paintings is made, confusing the Communists. Michelle effects the rescue by disguising the cafe crew as German soldiers, scaring away the Communists and allowing everyone to get out of the remote barn, with Hans pocketing the paintings as they make their way back to the village. Meanwhile, Helga has to use the crank to get Herr Flick's Staff Car running again, just in time for the Gestapo to take possession of the forged painting. Or *is* it the forged one? Ooops!

Allo Allo 1x07 The Dance Of The Hitler Youth

submitted 2003-05-31 09:31:34
Airdate: 1984-00-00

As Rene and Maria attempt a tryst by the Brie, Michelle arrives to announce that Monsieur Leclerc will arrive momentarily disguised as a cheeseseller, with their new replacement radio. Then, as Rene and Yvette attempt a tryst in the back room, Edith interrupts. But enough about attempted trysts - it is now up to Rene & Co to swap the forgery for the real painting before Herr Flick sends the painting to Hitler on the train. Leclerc arrives and delivers a large suitcase full of cheeses, and tells Rene that the radio is inside as well, and already connected - which leads to a hilarious exchange with the activated radio inserting odd phrases and sounds at inopportune moments in Rene's conversation with Lt. Gruber. While the Germans celebrate the anniversary of the burning down of the Reichstag (by having girls dress as Hitler Youth and dance Traditional Old Bavarian Dances), and Herr Flick crashes the party, Rene & Edith don German disguises and attempt to effect the swap in Herr Flick's office. But Helga is shocked to find that Flick has himself ordered a forgery - and since Rene and Edith fail in their mission, Flick now has two forgeries and an original. But which is which? Meanwhile, the plan to get the airmen out of France this time is to disguise them as Hitler Youth out for "exercise" on the beach, and then get them in a boat. Luckily, Rene and Edith are still in German Officer uniforms and they can bluff their way through the guards. Unluckily, nobody told the Airmen that they were going to have to row across the Channel, and neither thinks they can do it. So the plan is cancelled as the crew fakes some "exercises" before returning to the cafe.

Airdate: 1985-00-00

As the episode opens, Rene informs us that the airmen have been removed to hide in a nunnery. But we know that situation can't last long, right? And since Rene has been "shot dead", Edith is on a hunt for his will - once she finds it, she goes on a shopping spree for a new hat, since he left everything to her. She also decides to take Fanny and Leclerc out for a fancy dinner, to show off her new status as a rich available widow - and the waitresses push Rene to marry *them*. Now Colonel Von Strohm is on the warpath, looking for the airmen. He is delighted to find they are no longer at the cafe, but he attempts to blackmail Rene into revealing the names of the resistance, or failing that, to spy upon them. Rene turns the tables on him with a letter detailing the... rather sticky fingers... the Colonel has, which he says will be given to Herr Flick if anything happens to him. Meanwhile, now owning *three* copies of the painting of the Fallen Madonna With the Big Boobies by Van Clomp, Herr Flick enlists the help of Lieutenant Gruber in determining which is genuine. Finally, the airmen, disguised as nuns, end up at the cafe again. Michelle resorts to holding a gun on Rene to force him to hide them again and he reluctantly accedes to her demands. But while he is out retrieving his wandering wife and mother-in-law, the girls hide the airmen in the last place anyone would look - in the piano! This episode contains the absolutely classic "plinky plinky plonk plonk" version of Lilli Marlene.

Allo Allo 2x02 The Wooing Of Widow Artois

Airdate: 1985-00-00

Rene realizes he must woo Edith again in order to reacquire his cafe - and he finds it hard to believe anyone else would want to marry her, considering all the trouble the cafe gets into. For instance, Michelle has just shown up to prepare the airmen for the latest escape plan. They are still disguised as nuns, but are now hiding in the attic above Fanny's room. The current plan involves a plane landing tonight in a field - and to get the airmen to the field, Michelle disguises them as a cow (though it's a rather goofy-looking cow). Herr Flick has decided in the meantime to conceal the paintings inside knockwurst sausages, and flashes them to Helga. His plan involves a sausage with the original painting hung in Rene's kitchen while the forgery-filled sausage will go to Colonel Von Strohm to be sent to Hitler. But Helga clues in the Colonel and the Captain, and they end up with an ingenious plan to substitute various sausages, and soon end up playing "pass the sausage" -- literally.

Airdate: 1985-00-00

We pick up the action mere moments after the close of the previous episode, as the airmen-filled cow narrowly escape being milked by a German patrol while awaiting the landing of the plane. As they watch disappointedly, the plane does not land, instead jettisoning two parachutes, one of which yields a new escape package. The other yields Officer Crabtree, sent from "British Ontelligence Headquitters" - disguised a policeman, he is supposed to blend in. Unfortunately, his French is abominable, getting the vowels wrong as often as not... Meanwhile, the plan to blow up the non-painting-filled knockwurst on its way to Hitler has hit a snag - Rene can't find anyone to blow up the train. But Helga works out a plan involving Lt. Gruber's armored car and its mounted 20 mm gun, and Rene and Hans end up out trying to shoot the train. Plus in this episode: Hitler's speeches at double speed!

Airdate: 1985-00-00

Once again we pick up mere moments after the previous episode ended, with Rene and Hans returning to the cafe in Gruber's stolen armored car. Crabtree, though, has notified Gruber that his car has been stolen, and Gruber has called in Herr Flick who is hot on the trail of the stolen vehicle. As Edith and the girls ride bicycles to the rescue, the armored car is captured by Michelle and the Resistance. But as Flick arrives and the Resistance escape, Helga dreams up a wonderful explanation for why Rene and Hans are out in the borrowed car, and Herr Flick blows up his own Gestapo Staff Car. As they disguise themselves in preparation for an escape to neutral Switzerland, the Colonel and the Captain are greeted by the news that the "troon has been bummed by the RAF", according to Crabtree. Meanwhile, Monsieur Alphonse shows up to court the Widow Artois, leading Rene to cry his eyes out to convince Edith to marry him again. Michelle arrives to enlist Rene to mend the silk balloon (which was inside the escape package delivered with Crabtree last episode) to help the British airmen to escape. This means acquiring a lot of silk very quickly -- and the only convenient source seems to be the knickers of the town.

At the end of last episode, M'sieur Alphonse challenged Rene to a duel for the right to Edith's hand. Rene tries plan after plan to get out of it, from avoiding the seconds to wearing armor at the duel. Colonel Von Strohm devises a plan to have the Germans practicing maneuvers the morning of the duel, and "accidentally" blow up the undertaker. But Hitler has discovered that the blown-up sausage did not contain a painting, and Herr Flick has been sent to arrest the officers responsible. Meanwhile, the balloon is completed and taken to a barn. Also: the British airmen are disguised as French policemen by Crabtree! ("It's nose to spike your tongue!")

The airmen are now disguised as French girls, and Helga comes to Rene to report that Herr Flick has the Colonel and the Captain in the dungeon and will torture the truth out of them -- if they can remember how it goes. Rene is captured by Von Smallhausen and joins the officers in their imprisonment. When the gang are tortured in the Gestapo prison, the girls break in to leave the suicide pills and Gruber calls in General Erich Von Klinkerhoffen in hopes he can override the Gestapo. Meanwhile, the Knickers Balloon dreamed up in 2.4 takes off full of airmen, with the assistance of Monsieur Alphonse, who now believes Rene is "the bravest man in all France."

The Communist Resistance kidnaps Herr Flick's Gestapo sausage and demands a ransom. Herr Flick is having Helga outfitted for a new suit when the news arrives, and he assigns tha task of recovering the sausage to the Colonel and the Captain. Eventually, it naturally falls to Rene to deliver the ransom: 800,000 francs borrowed from M'sieur Alphonse. The Germans agree to lie in wait (and do so in the great "tree" disguises, complete with the owl camera!) during the transfer and capture the Resistance to recover the money, but things go awry. The Gestapo crew is also present for the transfer - disguised as Resistance girls. With the Colonel and the Captain as trees, the cafe crew disguised as German soldiers, the German soldiers disguised as French policemen, and Gruber out walking his dogs, how can we be surprised at the ensuing chaos? Meanwhile, Michelle falls from a rusty drainpipe and hatches the "antique airplane" plan for getting the British airmen (who started hiding in Rene's outhouse and ended up disguised as old biddies in Fanny's bed) home.

Gruber's runaway Alsatian dog has ended up with the sausage with the painting, and returned it to Gruber. Herr Flick captures Gruber and interrogates him, discovering that Gruber found the painting in the sausage and removed it, noting it was a forgery. Now Flick knows that the painting in his now-minced sausage was a forgery, so he is on the lookout for the original again. Rene then talks Gruber into making yet another copy of the painting, and ends up getting Gruber cut in on the deal. So Rene straps the sausage with the original painting around Maria's bosom and sends her off to the chateau to deliver it to Gruber. Rene also needs to repay the anxious Monsieur Alphonse, so he gets Monsieur Leclerc to reveal where he has been hiding the counterfeit francs he has been making and gives Alphonse the forged money, who in celebration begins a spending spree. Meanwhile, Michelle steals the motor from General Von Klinkerhoffen's lawnmower to power the airplane for the airmen's escape, and hides it in Fanny's wheelchair.

Maria, having been detained by Von Klinkerhoffen with the Fallen Madonna Sausage strapped to her bosom, is imprisoned in the chateau and the General relieves her of the sausage. As Von Klinkerhoffen lets it be known that the return of his lawnmower's motor will result in the release of the girl, lots of people attempt to replace the "real" sausage with a forgery, from Herr Flick (using Helga to distract the General) to the Resistance to Gruber and Hans... luckily, the chateau is riddled with secret passages. This episode includes the great bits where Hans is whacking his head against the table (to get the bit of cheese dislodged from his ear), where Herr Flick is limping in a suit of armor, and Officer Crabtree claiming Fanny has been "pissing" forged bank notes. This is possibly my favorite episode of all...

Michelle arrives to tell Rene that the antique airplane is unfortunately in the back of the museum, so to get it out they will hold a parade of antiques while the gang from the Cafe sneaks in and recovers the plane. Herr Flick assigns the Colonel and the Captain to "mingle" with the peasants during the parade to find out what they are up to. Rene, meanwhile, is hiding the real sausage (that he managed to recover from the chateau) under Fanny's bed - but she takes a bite before anyone can stop her, biting off the corner of the painting with Van Clomp's signature. Gruber assures Rene he can "invisibly mend" it, and make a forgery just the same. Outside, Yvette takes to streetwalking on her day off in hopes of raising enough money for she and Rene to escape to Paris. As Michelle arrives at the Cafe to collect the lawnmower motor (hidden in Fanny's chair) for the plane, Rene is assigned to gather 200 feet of elastic by collecting the braces (suspenders) from every man in the village. The following morning, as the parade starts off, our heroes are disguised as a road gang to wait for everyone else to pass. Herr Flick, on his way to observe the parade with his powerful binoculars, punctures a tire and has Helga pump the tire back to full inflation. The Colonel and the Captain have commandeered an antique steamroller to join the parade - but Hans wants to drive, and manages to steamroll Herr Flick's Gestapo staff car. Finally, the launch of the antique airplane is attempted, but the antique car pulling the elastic slams backwards into the plane when the chocks get stuck, and everyone escapes back to the Cafe.

Rene, having beaten the rest of the gang back to the cafe, hides the painting on the back on some worthless picture of flowers given to Fanny years ago by a poor little painter named Van Gogh. Von Klinkerhoffen, having found his lawnmower motor smashed in the museum, has started searching the town for airmen. Maria hides the airmen by disguising them as waitresses in the bar, but Rene's ultimate plan is to get the airmen into the prisoners-of-war camp. The problem is that without their uniforms, the airmen will be shot as spies if found openly. Rene and Co. must therefore smuggle the airmen into the camp, and they decide to pull a sting - with the airmen disguised as prostitutes, they plan for them to be shot publically in the bar and transport them in coffins to the mortuary, conveniently across the street from the prisoner of war camp, where they will tunnel them through into the camp. Also, Herr Flick has installed an eavesdropping station, where they listen to the resistance radio to find that the airmen are in town and disguised as French maids - so they plan to infiltrate the cafe as French maids themselves. Von Klinkerhoffen, nobody's fool, assigns Von Strohm and Geering to watch Cafe Rene closely to see if they are helping British airmen to escape.

While Rene continues attempting to carry on two simultaneous affairs, Michelle informs him that the tunnel digging from the mortuary has hit a hard bit and the airmen (still disguised as prostitutes) need help. When Rene asks why the undertakers can't help, Michelle says they're busy digging graves in which to put all the dirt from the tunnel dig. Upstairs, Fanny bemoans the loss of her painting and lets slip that the artist's name was Vincent, and it dawns on Rene that the silly painting of the flowers was a genuine Van Gogh. Herr Flick and Von Smallhausen intercept the latest "London Calling" transmission about Little Boy Blue and Old Mother Hubbard and amazingly decode it into something to do with the graveyard (after all, Mother Hubbard was looking for a bone, was she not?) - so they disguise themselves as priests, and with Helga as a nun they infiltrate the church. Hans has fallen out of the Colonel's graces due to the shooting the previous night, but feels grateful to Rene for the bribe he paid to Crabtree to keep the incident quiet. When Gruber and the other two German officers get together, they start making plans for forgeries again - this time needing two forgeries of the Fallen Madonna and two of the Van Gogh. But when Hans and Von Strohm see Rene go into the mortuary, they end up following Rene and the Cafe staff through the tunnel into the POW camp, unfortunately collapsing the tunnel as they go. So now everyone's trapped inside the POW camp as General Von Klinkerhoffen comes by for an inspection, and they all end up disguised as British POWs!

Having been trapped in the POW camp, Rene is enlisted in the plan to re-dig the tunnel, by getting rid of the dirt. Hans and the Colonel are playing cricket, though not very well, and Herr Flick and Von Smallhausen are digging their own tunnel into the camp. Monsieur Alphonse arrives at the Cafe to report to Fanny the news that Rene has been captured, but Rene and Company join in on the British prisoners' plan to escape - though only one person can escape in this way. The plan involved a plank laid across a barrel, and Rene leaping on one end (from the top of a shed) to fling the person on the other end out and over the fence. Naturally, the Colonel volunteers Hans for the escape, and after numerous attempts actually manages to get over, and is spirited away into the woods by the Resistance. Meanwhile, Helga reports the situation to Gruber, and together they decide on a plan to rescue the Colonel, the Captain, and Rene, involving Gruber dressing as a nun. Officer Crabtree, though, reports to Alphonse and Leclerc with his own plan, involving everyone escaping in "droon poops". Meanwhile, though, the gang inside join a variety show for the purposes of covering a rather chancy plan of escape. But do they all make it out? The cliffhanger leaves us mid-dance...

"A woman pretending to be a man pretending to be a woman?" The quote from Victor Victoria is quite descriptive of the situation of Yvette, Michelle, and Edith, as they are all dressed "in drag" as part of the chorus line of girls. It's a successful show which distracts the Germans long enough for the gang to slip into the garbage truck driven by Lt. Gruber. But the airmen follow everyone else and end up back outside the camp as well! Meanwhile, Flick and Von Smallhausen manage to find the end of the tunnel inside the POW camp, which leads them to begin listening to the wireless again, in an attempt to jam London's transmissions. The cafe gang regroups after their escape only to find that Maria did not make it out with them - and her escape plan of disguising herself as a Red Cross parcel and mailing herself home backfires, with her being returned to Switzerland for lack of postage. Michelle shows up to report that they have received word that Hitler is preparing to invade England, and that the Resistance will have to put all their efforts into sabotaging this invasion, with none left over to help the airmen escape; for now they will have to stay put in the cafe. When Rene and company head upstairs to answer the radio, Herr Flick jams the signal and inserts his own, attempting to fool Rene into giving out the names and addresses of the Resistance. But Rene discovers the ruse and panics, tossing the radio in an attempt to keep Herr Flick from finding out it is him. When they attempt to contact London on the radio inside Gruber's tank, they find that Hans has been spirited away to England by the Communist Resistance (who mistook him for an RAF officer, of course).

Rene, Edith, and Yvette interview applicants for the waitress position vacated by the missing Maria (and end up with the psychotically vicious Resistance girl Mimi), as Michelle arrives to inform them that a new radio is being delivered by an agent disguised as a mountaineer. And in German HQ, Von Klinkerhoffen arrives to announce that it's good that Hans has "volunteered for the Russian front" (as Von Strohm claims), since Mussolini has convinced Hitler that a token Italian force should be present in France -- so the General puts the force under Von Strohm's command and places their captain, Alberto Bertorelli, as Von Strohm's second. As Rene thwarts scheme after scheme by Mimi to assassinate Herr Flick (and any other Axis forces in the vicinity), Gruber needs dark red lipstick to complete the forgeries, and Leclerc shows up as the mountaineer - but unfortunately he has got the radio already connected in his pack, leading to a series of problems with inopportune bursts of noise and sound from the radio (in a virtual replay of the situation in episode 1.7).

Meanwhile, as Edith prepares for her wedding, and receives bouquets from fortune-hunting Capt. Bertorelli, Rene & Co. must get the aerial for their new radio above the jamming signal of Herr Flick, so they disguise Mimi as a small nun to obtain a box kite which they fly to contact London and request plastic explosive to blow up the safe in the General's chateau to get the British Invasion plans. Of course, Michelle has to nearly have a nervous breakdown in the Cafe before Rene agrees to this crazy plan.

Michelle holds a gun on Rene to stop his latest attempt to escape to Spain and tells him that London has sent a spy camera with which to take photos of the Invasion plans - but the camera landed in a vineyard which was only just commandeered by the Germans. Meanwhile, the Germans are cross with Rene for the mixup with the sausages down everyone's trousers (and in Helga's bosom), but Rene comes up with a plausible story which deflects blame and makes it seem that he was actually helping the Colonel out. As the Germans stuff the sausages down Rene's trousers for him to return to the Cafe and conceal once again, Edith makes a bold plan to rescue him, disguising herself as a German officer and taking a grenade to threaten the Germans with -- which unfortunately results in the blowing up of the town's convenience (the sort of open urinal in the town square). The peasants are refusing to work the now-occupied vineyard (fearful of being shot by the Communist Resistance, for one thing), so Von Klinkerhoffen comes to the Cafe to recruit forced labor from the peasants. As the Resistance make plans to kill Von Klinkerhoffen with poison wine, and with a bomb hidden in Fanny's wheelchair, Leclerc finds the fallen spy camera. Meanwhile, Flick is in prison as "Frau Von Kinkenrotten" for having spied on the Colonel.
