Schultz
Carter, please. You could put me into lots of trouble. They might send me to the Eastern Front.
Gee, I wouldn't want that to happen.
Schultz
That's not the worst of it. They might give me 10 days leave!
What's wrong with that, for pete's sake?
Schultz
I would have to spend it with my wife.
[The men are about to get Schultz to parachute out of an airborne German bomber.]
Schultz
Colonel Hogan! I'm too old to parachute-jump!
Never too old, Schultz. Come on.
Schultz
Colonel Hogan! I'm too big to parachute-jump!
Now there you have a point.
Now, Schultz, I want you to treat me as you would any private under your command. Understood?
Schultz
Understood.
I don't want any special favors, any special treatment, any-
Schultz
You are a private?
Schultz
Shut up!
Schultz
Achtung! Eyes front! Put the helmet straight! Chest out, stomach in! Answer only when you're spoken to!
Schultz
Jawohl, what?
Schultz
That's better! About face! Fall in with the rest of them, you dummkopf! [Klink falls in with the other guards; Schultz turns to Hogan blissfully] Oh, it feels so good!
Schultz
Herr Kommandant, all present and accounted for.
Good. Now, men, I have a very important announcement to make.
Hey, they're gonna surrender!
Hey, the Krauts are gonna surrender!
[The prisoners all cheer and applaud.]
Colonel Hogan, control your men!
I can't, sir, the news of your surrender is-
Who said anything about a surrender?
Just now, you used the word yourself.
Well, I had to start somewhere.
Okay, men, the surrender's off!
[The prisoners boo.]
Now I've just had word that General Stauffen of the Fuehrer's headquarters will personally visit Stalag 13. I expect every prisoner in this camp to clean up and look neat.
Can't do it. Somebody stole me mascara brush!
Schultz
There's a new general in command of the military district. Tomorrow, he will be here for inspection.
Schultz
The orders are to clean up the barracks-
[The prisoners join in sarcastically]
SNSchultz, Newkirk, LeBeau, Carter, Kinchloe
-Clean up the compound, and clean up yourself!
CFCol. Franz
General, what is it?
GKGeneral Kammler
Are my eyes deceiving me? No, it couldn't be- [Turns to Klink] That sergeant standing over there-?
GKGeneral Kammler
It is! Hans!
Schultz
Can it be? Ach, du lieber! Lieutenant Kammler!
GKGeneral Kammler
How good to see you!
Schultz
Oh, Lieutenant! Ah, you are a General!
GKGeneral Kammler
Yes, yes, and you are a sergeant- well, Germany makes lots of mistakes.
Schultz
No mistake. You were always a very bright boy!
GKGeneral Kammler
We fought together in the first war. At the Ardennes, and at Ypres. I was just a young lieutenant; I didn't know anything at all. Schultz saved my life.
GKGeneral Kammler
And here we are, Hans, two German soldiers fighting another war!
Schultz
Keeps us out of trouble!
[Sergeant Schultz, pretending to be a general in the German Army, is covering for Hogan, LeBeau, Suzette and Verlaine while two Gestapo officers attempt to search the Paris apartment.]
Sergeant Schultz
How dare you come here, and disturb a general of the Third Reich.
1G1st Gestapo Man
Only doing our duty, sir. We had no idea that you were-
Schultz
Oh, you- you had no idea. You didn't know that a general might want to spend an afternoon with his, uh, with his, uh-
Schultz
Niece. Thank you, darling.
1G1st Gestapo Man
I assure you, General, we had no intention of intruding upon your privacy.
Schultz
No. You didn't! Should it ever happen again, I will report you to your superior officer, and then to his superior officer, and then even to his superior officer! I will report it all the way up, until it comes back to me! And if I ever... report it to myself... [Growls] Are you going to be in trouble.
[The two Gestapo men hurry for the door and leave.]
Schultz
They did? Why did you let them go?!
Now, Hogan, I want you to know that this will not go unpunished. Right, Schultz? [Schultz isn't paying attention] Right, Schultz?!
Schultz
Jawohl, Herr Kommandant! Someone will be punished!
The one who is responsible, right, Schultz?
Schultz
Jawohl, Herr Kommandant, the one who is responsible!
The one who is to see to it that lights out are at the proper time. Right, Schultz?
Schultz
Jawohl, Herr Kommandant, the one who is to see to it... [Realizes] that lights out...
[Klink holds out his hand]
I'll take your three-day pass now.
Schultz
Jawohl, mein Colonel! [Salutes Hogan]
[Shakes his head] Oh, Schultz, you idiot, you don't salute him, he's your prisoner! And see to it that it stays that way!
Schultz
[Salutes Klink] Jawohl, mein Kommandant!
And bring Carter back! Diiismissed!
[Klink goes back inside the camp office.]
Schultz
Colonel Hogan. What are we really going to do?
Schultz
Tell me nothing!
