Das Boot (2018) s01e07 Episode Script

1
I'll send him and his family
to a concentration camp on the next train.
Or he can go home.
It's his decision.
The Germans, Forster!
We must remove anything
they can use as evidence.
We must get
the electric compressor started
then pray that we can compress
enough air to blow the tanks.
- One of us has to go in.
- He'll die.
Someone has to do it
or else we can't surface.
- What's wrong?
- You have to go.
My landlady will soon be home.
From night shift.
So what?
She mustn't find you here.
- It's only coffee substitute.
- Thank you.
I'll get you some proper coffee.
My landlady
She's on the list.
I see.
And as she and I are now friends
I thought
You know how it is.
Field Command approved the names.
I couldn't help, even if I wanted to.
Don't worry.
Once we have Monroe,
everyone on the list will be safe.
It won't be long.
Simone
I love you.
Hagen, I
The house that I bought
is far too big for me on my own.
All right.
I don't want to pressure you.
I wouldn't want a wife
who's a pushover.
- I've got to go.
-Yes.
A bientôt.
What happened to him?
A flash fire.
While welding a U-boat tank.
What do you want, Mr Duval?
I'm busy.
We found this last night.
In a Resistance hideout.
It's old. It's expired.
Don't get me wrong.
I'm trying to avoid more violence.
I'm sure you've heard about the list.
100 hostages.
The consequences would be terrible.
La Rochelle's guardian angel.
Can you smell it, Mr Duval?
It's the smell of death.
People die here every day.
Do you know why?
The Germans are at war
with the world.
We treat them even though we're short
of everything, especially morphine.
So this is definitely not from here.
That's what you want to know, isn't it?
I'm just doing my duty.
Yes, that's what we're all doing.
Unfortunately.
Give it to him.
He needs it.
Inspector, we've identified
the other two dead men.
One is French. Claude Martin.
He worked at the docks.
We found this in the house.
They came from the west last night?
Yes.
- Where does that road go?
- Along the coast.
The depth charges
damaged the saddle tanks.
How long will the fuel last?
One day. At the outside.
If we run near empty
we risk a piston seizure.
- The batteries?
- Fully charged.
We need to talk.
Meeting in the control room.
We're somewhere here.
We don't know exactly.
No positioning is possible.
The sun isn't visible.
- And the radio?
- A pile of scrap.
I can't repair it without proper spare parts.
We have the VHF
but it's useless out here.
I could try the hydrophones
if we dived.
We might find another ship.
Then pray it's one of ours.
There are only convoys out here.
What then? Surrender?
I don't want to surrender.
Or to continue fighting.
I just want to get home.
Yeah, that's so important!
They'll lock us all up at once
and court-martial us.
All of us.
- Will you tell them?
- What?
What happened here
No one knows apart from us.
La Rochelle knows nothing.
Nothing's been entered in the logbook
since Greenwood's exchange.
Right.
We could enter what happened.
But we have to get home first.
How do we do that without any fuel?
No idea.
We need to find a German ship.
Submerged running
until we're off the convoy route.
How far will we get
on the batteries at 3 knots?
180 miles.
A south-easterly course
would get us closer to the French coast.
Set new course, one-three-five.
Prepare to dive.
Simone
Is she upstairs?
No, but I know where she is.
Can you hide her? Outside town?
At my farm. But not for long.
She has to leave.
How?
There are soldiers everywhere.
I'm scared.
Me too.
Did you drive here?
Come with me.
Carla?
We all have to stick together.
Chief, the officers have to keep quiet.
Or we might
just as well stay out here.
Perhaps we should face up to
what we did to Hoffmann and Max.
- Will it bring them back?
- No.
But at least some back-stabbing bastards
would hang for it.
Don't worry.
I'll keep my cowardly trap shut.
If Wrangel doesn't play along,
you can forget it anyway.
Frank!
Frank!
Listen.
Knocking noises.
SOS.
Bearing?
45 degrees.
Moving to the right.
Is it clearly audible?
Yes. It's getting louder.
Battle stations!
Battle stations!
Move it, you lazy bastards.
Hey, Tiger!
What's with you?
- It's no good with me on board.
- What?
- I'm bad luck.
- For being a whore-cheat?
- A whore-cheat?
- You pay but don't fuck.
It has nothing to do
with our bad luck.
Now do your work
or you'll get fucked.
By me!
Nothing.
The sound is getting louder.
It could take forever to find.
Like a needle in a haystack.
Kilometre 223.5 near Royan.
That's the direction
the car came from.
Half an hour of peace and quiet
without patrol boats.
- A delivery from across the sea?
- Yes, explosives and weapons.
Who else has this information?
The coastguard's routes
change every week.
The French coastguard arranges that.
I get a copy.
Let's hope
we find the traitor amongst them.
Have there been further losses?
Yes.
Three boats sunk, one missing.
Hoffmann.
Lorient received the last message
four days ago. Silence ever since.
Miss Strasser deserves to know.
- Losses are not my area.
- Forster, I'm not stupid.
Your reasons for picking that sub for
the mission weren't purely professional.
You should be the one to tell her.
Simone
- I have to talk to you.
-Yes? What about?
Not here. Tonight at my house.
All right.
- My driver will pick you up.
- See you tonight, then.
- How do you feel?
- All right.
I gave you something.
Probably a bit too much.
You slept like a baby.
Carla
- It's over.
- No.
Emile Emile!
I'm coming.
The whole of France.
Claude and Luc are dead.
We've got 40 bullets.
What use are they?
I need a piss. Help me, please.
- Who is that woman, Emile?
- She's just a friend.
She speaks English.
I don't want anyone speaking English here.
You hear me?
I know, Dad.
Another vessel. An old ship.
Not moving.
It doesn't look very seaworthy.
Make ready tubes 1 and 2
for surface firing.
Make ready tubes 1 and 2.
Prepare to surface.
Cyrillic characters.
It's a coastal ship.
We can't see a crew.
So far out?
Maybe they're all dead.
We need fuel.
We have to board it.
Is anyone have close combat experience?
Has anyone here killed someone
with their own hands?
Yes.
I have.
Does anyone speak Russian?
Apart from me?
- I'll go with you.
- What?
- You need me.
- A madman?
Who is going to lead the men?
You?
This boat needs a commander.
Fuel alone won't help.
Ehrenberg will crack during the first
interrogation by Submarine Command.
We have no choice.
Are you crazy?
No. He's right.
Otherwise we'll all be court-martialled.
The entire crew.
But I promise,
if you're screwing us
you won't die by a Russian bullet
but a German one.
You can get down this way.
Stay here and cover our backs.
You too.
Don't shoot.
Please. Don't shoot.
- You're German.
-Yes. A Banat Swabian.
On a Russian ship?
We're in trouble.
Move.
Welcome aboard the Kasak.
I'm Captain Martin Chafroff.
You're all German?
Two Germans, four Romanians.
And a souvenir from the Ukraine.
This is the entire crew?
It's a small ship.
Why are you hiding down here?
We're not hiding.
We're dead in the water.
Our machinist went crazy.
He had too much schnapps
and fired at the engine.
We wanted to repair it.
But the starter engine is probably broken.
- Where is he now?
- Dead.
Can you repair the engine?
How much fuel have you got?
Enough.
Have you run out of fuel?
That pretty much sums it up.
My machinist will repair your engine.
You give me as much fuel as I need.
Have a look at it.
Go with him.
Schnapps?
We're lucky that you found us.
Get out of the way.
Shit.
Well? Can you fix it?
I can try.
Did you hear that?
No, I can't hear anything.
There.
I've probably stood
next to the engines for too long.
Thorsten
What
What are you doing?
Going to have a look.
Wrangel told us to stay here.
Thorsten.
Oh, shit.
I won't hurt you.
It's all right. I won't hurt you.
All right?
Everything's all right.
Everything's all right, I promise.
Halifax was our destination.
- Canada?
- Yes.
The east coast.
There are German-speaking communities.
As Germans
you can all fight for Germany.
We are refugees.
Deserters.
Survivors.
It's all my fault.
It's my fault.
The bad luck on board.
It's all my fault.
I've had enough of the war.
Shall I tell you about the war
in the east, my friend?
- Were you there?
- Yes. In Charkov.
57th Army?
Gorodnjanski.
A good man.
Made our life hell.
Podlas
was the commander of the 57th.
Not Gorodnjanski.
You've never been to war.
Check on the others.
Take him on deck.
Then prepare for refuelling.
You, come with me.
And you too.
Our daughter is here.
Have you seen a girl?
Jews.
A girl, a beautiful girl
with blonde hair.
No?
Please shoot us.
Just two bullets.
We gave them all our money.
To go to Canada.
Please.
Thank you. Thank you.
Give the signal.
Both engines slow ahead.
Perhaps it was me.
Perhaps I was bad luck.
Come on.
Tube 2.
Fire!
You want the crew
to get home safely
You can trust me.
Good dog.
Let go, let go!
I can't keep her any more.
It has been long enough. Take her.
Or I leave her outside the hospital.
An old lady with a baby.
And two daughters
who don't look at all alike.
The neighbours are gossiping.
Why should I take risks, not you?
Give me more time.
I'll find a solution. Please.
Two days.
For the baby's sake.
Not a day longer.
All right.
May I?
Have a seat.
Simone
it's best to hear some news
from a friend,
someone who loves you.
It may make difficult things a little easier.
U-612 is missing.
Hoffmann's boat. Frank's boat.
They had to engage in battle.
Four days ago. Since then
there has been no contact.
I'm so very sorry.
Excuse me.
They've kidnapped Gluck.
I have to go. I have no choice.
My driver will take you home
when you want.
I can't replace your brother
but I'm here for you.
- Margot! You have to leave.
- What?
What do you mean?
They will round people up.
The hostages.
- You're on the list.
- What?
Listen.
This is a fake passport.
Take it and change your hair.
You'll look like her. It will work.
All right?
And take the baby, Anna.
- Take her with you.
-Why?
Frank is dead.
- How about you?
- I can't leave.
But you can. You can!
"We want the head of Criminal Inspector
Hagen Forster. Within 48 hours.
"If not, Gluck will be executed.
"Long live freedom, long live France."
Your head.
To be exposed in front of the town hall.
This is meant literally.
That's a bloody farce.
Why wasn't he better guarded?
Monroe was finished.
Rats on the run
But they bite when they get cornered.
I want every stone in town
turned over,
every door opened,
every cellar searched.
You know the procedure.
The Field Commander received
the order from Paris half an hour ago.
Round up the hostages.
Dismissed.
And we need 50 more men
for Gluck's adjutant.
Fetch the mayor.
He will take care of that.
After that you will come back
to my office for further orders.
Are you deaf?
Heil Hitler.
