Storyline

While he was in the bell tower of the church, Herr Flick saw the two stolen land mines in the Butcher's Yard next to Café René. When he and Von Smallhausen find out they are empty, they both hide inside them in order to catch resistance members when they come to transport the mines. Meanwhile, Helga told the colonel and Gruber the whereabouts of the land mines and the colonel - not knowing the mines are empty and harmless and Flick and Von Smallhausen are in them - orders Bertorelli and his men to move the land mines to the German air base. After finding out about this, Michelle comes up with a plan to get the British airmen into the mines and back to England. Written by Marco van Hoof <k_luifje7@hotmail.com>

Quotes

Herr Engelbert von Smallhausen: I have a very sore head.
Herr Otto Flick: That is the least of your problems. You have been squashed well below the minimum height required for members of the Gestapo.
