Summary: Having blown up Herr Flick with his nose, Rene tries to leave town, but Gruber shows up to report that he has convinced Von Klinkerhoffen that the French General was the culprit who blew up Herr Flick - so he has commuted Rene's death sentence. Flick is recovering in traction, while the French General (who is still paralyzed) is propped upHaving blown up Herr Flick with his nose, Rene tries to leave town, but Gruber shows up to report that he has convinced Von Klinkerhoffen that the French General was the culprit who blew up Herr Flick - so he has commuted Rene's death sentence. Flick is recovering in traction, while the French General (who is still paralyzed) is propped up outside the Cafe to be caught by the Germans. Leclerc takes Fanny out on a date in honor of the 50th anniversary of their meeting. Von Klinkerhoffen intends to continue the Generals' Conference, but with a double feint - he will disguise a group of peasants as German generals and disguise the generals as peasants in the Cafe, so the Resistance will blow up the peasants instead. In toasting the forthcoming invasion of England, they manage to smash a Louis XIV crystal set Von Strohm had stolen and planned to send to his wife. Michelle arrives and reveals to Yvette that she feigned her love for Rene to get him to stay with the Resistance - and an urgent message arrives over the radio to say that another group of shot down airmen will arrive in the Cafe, disguised as onionsellers. Naturally, the German generals decide to come as onionsellers, too - everyone speaking English and talking about getting back to England is not surprising to either group of faux peasants. But the air raid starts and the escape plan comes to fruition -- and guess which group of onionsellers gets shipped back secretly to England and which get sent to take shelter in the German-HQ chateau?
