Aurora discovers a plan to attack the Polish village of Nadzieja. The Resistance fighters join Neil and Alfred in a fierce battle.

Previously on x company...
Favorite food?

Cherries with garlic and salt.
How about we stick to...

Just cherries?

I want to make sure
that you never forget.

The choice you made.

My family used to own
a candy shop in nadzieja.

The building's been empty ever
since the nazis took my parents.

But I'm going to open
that candy store again.

Aurora, his feelings for you
make you all vulnerable.

End it. That kiss?

Yeah? It was a mistake.



How is sabine? Her happiness is.

My first concern.
She's ready to love.

Another child. It would be good
for both of you.

Have you asked her
what she thinks about that?

This man. Your friend.
Talk or he dies.

We had two orders. No!

The first was to destroy
as many refineries in poland...

Look at me!
No, no, no! Please don't!

I'm hosting a party
at my country home.

I would be very pleased if you could
come as well. I wouldn't miss it.

Operation marigold isn't
about a refinery.

It's about him.
Professor harald voigt.

He is working on a formula
to increase the production.

Of synthetic oil.
He's going to flood germany.



With synthetic oil
and win the war by springtime,

Thanks to a formula in his head
that is shared with no one.

So, if something happened to voigt...
It's not that easy.

After yesterday schmidt
moved him to a secure location.

He's the only one who knows
where the man is.

I was wrong. I see now why you
do this even if it's not safe.

I want to help too.
We are moving forward.

With our germanization campaign.
Anyone with nordic.

Or phalian traits may remain.

The soldiers then come in
to clean out the rest.

We need a battle plan.

The nazis are cleaning out
a village tomorrow.

What's going on?
Government health check today.

Come inside, children!

Time to come inside. Let's go!

Meet me here after, okay?

And no dawdling.

The only weapons.

My lot could find in the woods
were stick guns.

Stick guns? For training.

Don't worry about it.
Where'd these come from?

Our government-in-exile
has been hiding army weapons.

Since the war broke out.
The germans use.

The vistula river
to transport their guns,

And we also use it
to transport ours.

We just need to know.

What village the germans
are attacking today.

My people are working on it.
That's not the problem.

Your people didn't
send ammunition.

Come.

Good morning, children.

My name is fraulein adler
and this is frau bauer.

Today is a very special day.

We are going to have
a competition!

And the winners will get
to go on a trip!

Now.

The students who collect
the most points will win.

Points will be given.

For the prettiest eyes,

The nicest hair,

The fairest complexion.

Everything that
makes you special.

Now, sit very still for me.

That's good.

You do have pretty eyes,
don't you?

Miss, we'll need your class's
full medical records, please.

Yes, fraulein adler.

How did you sleep?

All right. Come here.

I wish we could stay here
instead of going.

To my father's garden party.

Just the two of us.

I miss you.

I'm right here.

You are and you aren't.

I wish you would
tell me what happened.

When they had you prisoner.
Please.

Don't.

It still needs time.

What is your name?

What is her name?

Ania nowak.

Please stand up, ania.

Just like your friends.

She will also be
classified "w.E."

And the others?

For the camps. That's right.

We will add up the results.

And the lucky winners will be
selected later today.

You will be taken on a trip,
with all the other.

Special children of nadzeja.
The soldiers will arrive.

On the 3 o'clock train
to process the village.

Let's get back to the office.

Thank you, miss.
Thank you, children.

We'll see the winners
in a few hours.

Thank you.

Your men are trained?
Many of them are former army,

Like me. The rest learned fast.

Here we go. Ammunition. Could've
done with this in france.

I don't think
they work with stick guns.

This war won't be won
on the battlefield.

It'll be won in the streets.

And there's no point
waiting for the russians.

The only thing
they're ever on time for.

Is a free drink.

A german or a russian?

German first.
Duty before pleasure.

Alec?

Where are you off to?
The station is that way.

I could ask you the same thing.

That is easy.
I saw you and I followed.

You followed me?

Sit down.

Act normal. Everything's normal.
Okay.

This is for you.

Fresh cherries.

Where did you get these?

Black market.

You don't like cherries?
I love cherries.

What was she like?

The friend you lost.

I never said she was a she.

You didn't need to.

She was strong.

I was intimidated at first.

Afraid of disappointing her.
Did you?

I don't know.
Maybe I would have.

If we'd had more time.

But being near her.

Made me feel brave,

Like I could do anything.

You still can. Before her,

There was no one.

I was no one.

Alec.

Have a cherry.

Let's have a picnic after work.

I know a place by the river;
It's very quiet,

Very private. I used to go there
when I was a girl...

I'm sorry. What was I thinking?

No, irena, that's not...
It's fine. I'm sorry.

I will go.
I will see you at work.

She seems nice.

She is.

What did you learn?
Their target is nadzieja.

The soldiers are coming
by train at 3:00pm.

That doesn't give us much time.

Almost everyone in the village
has been classified.

As "undesirable."
the germans want them gone.

Even the children.
It's going to be.

An extermination. No, it won't.

I'll tell janowski to bring
all the fighters he can.

And then I'll go to the school.
While I attend.

A nazi tea party.
I hate this. I hate her.

Helene?

I dream in german now.

I can't escape her.

You control her.

We've heard from the camp.

The panzers are moving
into stalingrad.

The only reason the russians
are holding them off is.

Because the germans
are getting low on fuel.

But if professor voigt
gets marigold running,

They'll be unstoppable
on every front. Go to the party.

Find out where voight is.
Whatever it takes.

Whatever it takes.

Be safe.

You, too.

Your commander,
he let your men die.

He did. I offered you my men.

To save them. Why did he
order you to stand down?

"Strategy."

If you kill all your fighters,

There won't be any men
left to lead.

Then I reckon
we won't need leaders.

It works on paper.

Redrawing borders is
their favorite game.

The germans want
to eliminate us,

The russians to absorb us,
the americans ignore us.

But ours is not
a paper war, is it?

Come on. Through there.

They are targeting nadzieja.
What?

Our contact says troops are
coming by train at 3 o'clock.

We know the village.

It's close to here.
That's where we grew up.

So we have an advantage. There.

The train and the main road.
Tomek, do you have.

Anything that can help us?

Explosives on the rails.

The train destroys itself.
It tips over like a broken toy.

Good. They'll never
make it into nadzieja.

Go get a group together.
We'll take the forest route.

All right, let's go!
Okay, everybody!

We need to warn the villagers.
I'll go with you.

We should let sinclair know.

Why? To keep him informed.

The way he kept us informed?
He had reasons.

For doing what he did.
Lying to us.

And sending 2 rookies
to their deaths?

Isn't it beautiful? Very.

It's not paris,
but I love it here.

Herr obergruppenfuhrer.
Herr brigadefuhrer faber.

Hello, sabine. Hello, heidi.

Helene. So good
to see you again.

You, as well. You have
a beautiful home.

So glad you could make it
to my good-bye party.

You're leaving us already?

My work in berlin beckons,
I'm afraid.

That's too bad.
When must you go?

Tomorrow.

I had my doubts
bringing you to poland,

But I was impressed
with how you handled.

The saboteurs at the refinery.

I'm glad I could help.

I've arranged for you
to accompany me to berlin.

Herr professor voigt.

Will be presented
with an award at the gala.

For his contributions
to the reich.

He's coming out of seclusion?
Personally, I think.

The professor should keep
a low public profile,

At least until
his project is unveiled.

But with our challenges
in stalingrad,

The fuhrer wants to do what
he can to keep morale high.

I imagine the rsd will make.

Professor voigt's safety
a priority.

The fuhrer's guards
will have their hands full.

I want professor voigt's
security handled personally.

By someone I can trust.

I'll do my best. Good.

I've arranged train tickets
for sabine as well.

I don't think it's necessary
that she come along.

Berlin is home.
Your apartment is still yours.

It will be good for her
to sleep in her own bed.

We leave
tomorrow evening at 7:15.

It's a shame
obergruppenfuhrer schmidt has.

To leave us for berlin.

This is to celebrate the tenth
anniversary of the reich?

It is. It will be
a truly historic celebration.

And he mentioned to me he'll be
attending an exclusive gala.

Inner circle only.

I'm sure it will be memorable.
They have a lot to be proud of.

I'll let you know how it goes.

Obergruppenfuhrer schmidt
told me.

That all the single men
are asked.

To bring a female companion.

Purely platonic, of course.

Someone who embodies the highest
feminine values of the reich.

What an opportunity for you.

Well, it's not official yet.

But I've already
picked out a dress.

Heidi! Hello!

Berta.

Derica.

Have you met brigadefuhrer
faber's wife, sabine?

Of course.
Nice to see you again.

And you as well.
And you remember my colleague,

Helene bauer.
Nice to meet you again.

No.

I can barely go 5 minutes
without excusing myself.

I remember how it felt.
I thought my fourth.

Would be easier, but this one
can't come soon enough.

How old are yours, helene?

I don't have any children.
Don't give up.

Sometimes it takes a few tries,
but it's worth it.

To be honest, I didn't feel.

Like a real woman
until I became a mother.

It's a true honor.
I think there are.

Other "honorable" things to do
in life besides boiling diapers.

Well, it was nice
seeing you all!

Excuse me. Heidi.

Heidi. Where are you going?
I need to change.

Obergruppenfuhrer schmidt has
organized a pheasant hunt.

And I detest side-saddle.

Do you have any
riding gear to spare?

You ride? Not for a long time,

But I'd love to come along.

Women don't usually
go on the hunt.

Except for you. Except for me.

The outside rail on a bend.

Is the weakest spot.

When the train passes over,

The pressure triggers it
and the whole train goes flying.

Good to keep our distance.

We will make sure
there are no survivors.

Shit. Come on.

Go, go!

You said they patrolled
in the morning.

There's an officer.
It's not a patrol.

They're headed to the village.

Gentlemen!

Who's thirsty?

Anything I should know?

I'm leaving for berlin
tomorrow to provide.

Private security
for professor voigt.

Voigt will be
at the anniversary gala.

Yes. He's coming out of seclusion to
receive an award. Then I need to be there.

Himmler will be attending.
The fuhrer is rumored.

To make an appearance.
Security will be impenetrable.

Good thing I have
someone on the inside.

There's nothing I can do.

To get you in. Invitation only.

Best shot picks his horse first.

Pull!

Ha! Very good!

Obergruppenfuhrer,

About tomorrow, should I arrange
my own train ticket or...

How did it go at the school?

Very well. Good.

Another one for good luck?

Cheers. Cheers.

Pull!

Perhaps I need more than luck.

May I?

I didn't know you could shoot.

There's a lot about me
you don't know.

Thank you.

Pull!

Remind me never to get
in your cross-hairs.

Here we are.

Do you ride as well
as you shoot?

You're going to have
to let me know.

3 o'clock!
My brother and janowski.

Used to sit out back,
reading comics.

If I stole candy for them,
they would let me stay.

The germans won't take it today.

Not today.

Where's the school? This way.

They're here!

Come on. We have
to warn the others!

Off the hour. It's a warning.

The germans must
already be there.

They were supposed
to come by train.

They didn't.
Let's go back for the others.

No time. I am coming.

Setting explosives is one thing,

But I made a promise
to keep you out of the fight.

My mother isn't here anymore.

Stay in the treeline.

Let's go.

Are you sure you have
to leave us so soon?

I have an important function
to attend.

Part of the official
celebrations?

It will be rewarding
to have our work recognized.

By reichsfuhrer himmler himself.

Congratulations. What an honor.

Isn't the view
beautiful, helene?

I selected this property.

Personally for the
obergruppenfuhrer.

As soon as I heard
you enjoyed hunting,

I knew this was the one.
Surrounded by woods.

I adore nature.

When I was a girl, I wanted
to be leni riefenstahl.

Being out here, on your land...

It fills me with hope
for lebensraum.

Finally reclaiming what is ours.

Exactly.

Being out here reminds me
why poetry was invented.

I feel my soul searching
for something...

Transcendent.

And pure.

Sabine was right.

You do have the soul of a poet.

Perhaps we'd have better luck
if the pheasants.

Don't hear us coming.

I'm sorry. Shall we?

Out! Get out!

No! Out!

Please don't hurt her!
Don't hurt her!

Rd? Rd means they're.

To be sent away to do farm work
for the incoming settlers.

Kowalski. Mark that one kl.

That's concentration camp.

Edsel!

Dieter. Hey! Hi. Jorn.

We had no idea
you were in poland.

Small world.
What are you doing here?

I work with brigadefuhrer faber.

Whoa! You've come a long way
from klv camp.

How about you? We're hoping.

To get into the ss.
Boys. When you evict them,

Make sure they leave
their belongings behind.

We don't want the settlers
arriving to empty homes.

Yes, herr polizeifuhrer. Move!

Come on! Help! Help! Let me go!

Excuse us.

Help!

Mama? Help!

Ania? Mama!

Mama! Stop!

Please!

Ania! Mama!

Where are you taking her?

Go!

Mama!

There could be
more children inside.

Thank you.

So close! The next one is yours.

Again!

That's enough.

It's time.

You, run.

It's more fun if you run.

Come on!

We've got a better chance
if we split up.

Take the north end.
We'll cover this side.

Wait for my signal.
Stay with him.

Move! Let's go!

Come on.

We're right behind you.

Come on!

You've found him.

What are you waiting for?

It doesn't seem right
to shoot a wounded man.

There's no challenge!

No! This is helene's prize.

Go ahead.

He's all yours, helene. The
privilege of true aryan blood.

Well done, helene.

All this fresh air has
worked up my appetite.

I have some venison
back at the house.

Sounds delicious.

Do you like venison, helene?

I love it.

Keep your position! Go, go!

It's okay.

Don't be afraid.
I'm here to help.

Have the reinforcements arrived?

This was supposed to be.

A cut-and-dry operation.
That's why I sent you.

Instead of going myself!

Stay there. I'm on my way.

There you are!

Could we please go home?
I can't talk now.

All these women talk about is
babies and drapery.

I'm going out of my mind!
Give my apologies.

To your father,
but I have urgent business.

There they are!

Cover us!

Fall back! Fall back!

No! Tomek!

Tomek!

Tomek!

We need to regroup
with the others.

I'll find alfred.

Alfred!

Helene. I wanted to thank you.

For a memorable day.

The pleasure was all mine.

It's been wonderful
getting to know you better.

I've been asked to bring
a companion with me.

To the anniversary gala
in berlin.

Someone who exemplifies.

The values of the reich.

I'd be honored if you would.

Accompany me on such
a special occasion.

I'd arrange your travel
and accommodation, of course.

If you would consider it.

Thank you.

That would be lovely.

Herr brigadefuhrer!

There could still be snipers.
We have to go.

Where are the other men?
Retreating.

Please, herr brigadefuhrer.
For your own safety.

Go. I'll follow you.

Fritz.

I didn't think you'd make it
out of the woods.

Are you proud of
what you've done?

I wasn't here. Yes, you were.

I didn't fight.

A brigadefuhrer
doesn't need to fight.

That's what
his soldiers are for.

But you're the one
who killed my men.

You are the one
who made the children orphans.

You are the monster.

Your soldiers are dead, fritz.

We killed them.

And we're going to keep
killing them and pushing you.

Out of our homes.

What are you waiting for, fritz?

Aren't you going to shoot me?

Be careful.

Mama! Where are you?

You all right? Yes.

Where's alfred?

Inside.

Do you see your mother?

Jurek! Mama!

Alfred?

Alfred.

It's okay. It's over.

We pushed them back.

We've held the town.

Come on.

These grade well.
There will be more soon.

What is your name?

Ania nowak. Age 6. Ania nowak.

I think she needs
a good german name.

She's the one.

I'll have the papers complete
by morning.

Hello? Sabine?

Herr obergruppenfuhrer. Papa!

I apologize for calling on you
at such a late hour.

What are you doing here?
I can't stay.

But I have a special delivery
I wanted to make myself.

I would like you to meet dagna.

She is healthy, obedient,

And she needs a family. I think
she will be very happy here.

Won't you, dagna?

Franz and sabine are very nice
to have you live here,

Aren't they?

Are you going to say thank you?

Well. I will
see you all tomorrow.

Good night.

Franz!

Don't just walk away!

I say we go
after those bastards.

We hit them again.

We're trying
to defend the towns.

Not make them targets
for reprisals.

Where are their bodies?

We are digging the graves.

We'll help.

Anything you need.

Good.

Tonight, we grieve and rest.

Tomorrow,

We keep fighting.

What happened?

The germans are gone.
We held the town.

Good.

What is it?

There were so many people.

Children. A little boy
on the floor. They killed him.

I saw a woman running
after her daughter,

And the germans shot her.

I can't stop seeing her face.
Every time I close my eyes...

Stop, please! What?

What happened? Tell me.

Just tell neil I got invited
to a gala in berlin.

And voigt will be there.

We've got a chance
to get this done.

We're leaving tomorrow.

What the hell do you want?

How do you do it?

Get out.

How do you do it?
How do you live with yourself?

What do you want me to do?

What? Do you want me to say it?

You want me to say
that I'm a monster, is that it?

Your hands aren't clean either.

You're just like me
and you know it.
