Herr Seewald,
we've been expecting you.

The delegate of the naval attache.

[SPEAKS IN GERMAN]

I have messages from headquarters.
-
But first,
your orders for Gibraltar.
-
[SPEAKS IN GERMAN]

And this radiogram.
-
Chief, Lieutenant Werner.

We're taking a stroll.
-
What's going on?
-
Bad news.
-
[SIGHS]
-
Request was denied
by headquarters.
-
You've got to stay on board.
You too, lieutenant.
-
Mm-hm.
-
I'm sorry.
-
It's probably just as well.
-
Who knows who they'd
replace me with?
-
Might be one of those
wet-behind-the-ears kids.
-
Very well could be.
-
They should've put some pussy
in storage for screwing.
-
Yeah, you'd be fighting
Spanish crabs by now.
-
Better than blue balls!
-
Move it and clear the chart table.
-
I can't navigate on bananas.

CAPTAIN:
Seven miles between coasts.

A tight squeeze, l'd say.
-
These are the British docks.
-
Their only port for repairs
in the western Mediterranean.
-
It will be well protected.
-
All kinds of defenses.
-
Anything floating will be
on the water.
-
We'll have to maneuver through it.
-
That's the situation.
-
We'll move under cover
of darkness,
-
skimming the surface.
-
We'll cut right
through the English ships.
-
As close to the Strait of Gibraltar
as we can get.
-
Then we'll dive,
-
and let ourselves drop.
-
[SPEAKS IN GERMAN]
-
Dive,
-
then float with the current
through the strait.

No racket.

It saves fuel.

Entire compass system is down,

probably the sonar too.

Radio is totally out.

Quite a mess.
-
Can we surface?
-
Any chance at all?
-
Good question.
-
Some air may be left
in the ballast tanks,
-
from all that blowing.
-
That might help us.
-
With every last bit of air pressure,
-
maybe--
-
We've got to reduce our weight.
-
That water has to get out.
-
Might work. It just might!
-
Aft is almost bailed.
-
It could work,
-
by hand into tanks,
-
then with main pump,
-
and air pressure,
the water's pushed out.
-
Main pump?
-
Can do.
-
Then we go for broke.
-
Blow tanks, and--
-
We'll get only one try.
-
When?
-
Once everything's repaired.

In 6 to 8 hours.

That old fox knew it all along.

Since he got that radiogram,

ordering us to break through.
-
That's why
he wanted us off the boat

in Vigo.
-
There was no chance to get through.
-
He wanted to make us believe
it was possible
-
with a simple trick.
-
"Drop down and glide through"--

Not a bad trick,

except that it had to work.

Will we ever surface, chief?
