The Great Escape1963
Preissen:
The prisoner Bartlett is discharged into your custody, Colonel von Luger.
Herr Kuhn:
I suggest the prisoner Bartlett to be kept under the strictest security confinement permanently.
Oberst Von Luger:
Make a note of Herr Kuhn's suggestion.
Hauptmann Posen:
Jawohl, Herr Oberst.
Herr Kuhn:
We have reason to believe this prisoner is the mastermind behind numerous criminal escape attempts.
Oberst Von Luger:
[sarcastically] Squadron Leader Bartlett has been three months in your care. And the Gestapo has only "reason to believe"?
SS-Hauptsturmführer:
If he once more falls into our hands, he will not be so lucky.
Oberst Von Luger:
Air force officer prisoners are the responsibility of the Luftwaffe – not the SS! Or, the Gestapo.
Preissen:
[Condescendingly] At present, yes, Herr Oberst. That is why they're turned, for the moment, over to your care.
Herr Kuhn:
Of course, if the Luftwaffe is not up to the task, the prisoners will find themselves totally in our charge. We, regretfully, are not so professionally understanding. [Kuhn, Preissen, and the Hauptsturmführer start to leave, but Kuhn stops and looks closely at Bartlett.] Squadron Leader Bartlett: if you escape again and be caught, you will be shot.
