[Miss Price and the children are taken hostage in her house by German soldiers.]
No, fraulein, this is not the invasion, just a little exercise, a minor raid to induce panic and to spread a little mischief. When you English get it through your head that the German forces can land at will whenever and wherever we please, perhaps you will consider a reasonable peace.
Not bloody likely!
Go on, Miss Price. Do it to him.
I must say, it's very tempting. Colonel, how would you feel about being turned into a nice white rabbit? [The colonel and a soldier read a map, ignoring Miss Price] I said, how would you feel about being turned into a nice white rabbit?!
[Paul smiles]
Be quiet, please!
[Miss Price stands up, points at the Colonel, but cannot remember the correct words to the rabbit spell]
Filigree, apogee, epigee...!
Not again.
Your memory, Miss Price.
Charles, would you kindly fetch me my notebook from the workroom, please?
Right-o.
[He walks to the workroom, but a soldier restrains Charlie. Miss Price and Paul attempt to retrieve Charlie in much commotion. The colonel, annoyed, turns to them]
SILENCE!!! [The commotion stops] Fraulein, we have work to do. I am sorry, but I must send all of you someplace where you will no longer be a nuisance. [Gives an order in German and continues working]
