Clifford Parry,
my daughter.
You move well between worlds.
that's what attracted us to you.
What are you doing!?
You think I can't see the sin inside of you?
Hello old girl.
Bloody hell.
it's okay, I got you.
Stay away from my son.
Hahahaha.
You're only going to run off with some beautiful women.
I already have.
Betty go call the nurse!
Nobody can know about this.
A possible miscarriage.
The bleeding won't stop.
I had no idea your father was locked up in Petawawa.
You take my father! You take his spearing!
Viva Italia!
No, Pa!
She doesn't have to go with you.
Then I come back with a warrant.
For what!
For her arrest and connection with the death of her father.
He fell.
And your friend Kate Andrews?
Kate was not there.
There's a place we call "The Farm."
Allied operatives from around the world train there.
You're telling me this?
Because I want you in.
Sync & corrections by Alice www.addic7ed.com
Best thing I ever did
was recruit you, Gladys.
Your training's gone well.
If you really believe that,
then why not give me my first assignment?
We head overseas next week.
Zurich.
Not having second thoughts?
Nope. Ready, willing, and eager.
Good to hear.
Morning Mr. Akins.
I hear we sunk ten Nazi U-boats.
Yep well, we've got Hitler shaking in his boots now.
I hear Hitler's dancing a jig.
The scuttlebutt is the war isn't going so well.
A country can't get far by lying to its own people.
Maybe they figure we can't handle the truth.
When we get married, I am never gonna lie to you.
An Italian wife is to be treated with respect.
He actually thinks I'm gonna be some typical Italian wife...
Vera, you're nobody's typical anything.
Whoa. Who's that? Rita Hayworth?
You must be new. The smoking section's that way.
Not so new,
been working the graveyard shift for the past month.
Don't mind Vera. Her bark is worse than her bite.
Hi, my name is--
Kate Andrews.
You you look so much better in your photos.
Oh, I know all about you.
And you should know that my husband starts back
on the amatol line today.
And why should she give a hoot about your husband?
Cause he used to be her fiance.
Ivan?
You're married to Ivan?
Bingo.
He'll sure be surprised to find you here.
He figured you to be in prison.
The name's Helen, by the way.
She's a piece of work.
"This is where the fate of the war will be decided:
The Battle of the Atlantic.
With England's factories decimated,
Nazi U-boats drew a line in the ocean to stop supply ships,
hell-bent on starving the people of Britain
and bringing that embattled nation to its knees.
Things are on the rise for the Allies.
Last week's convoy was the first to sink 10 Nazi submarines
and make it across to deliver support to our boys overseas."
Unfortunately not the truth
we're running out of ways to keep the public from knowing
that we might just lose the war.
This newsreel goes out across the country today,
but we have a serious problem.
Yesterday, only 6 made it through.
22 ships went down.
Oh God.
Our range recorders failed to detect those German submarines.
And you, Berman, as chief engineer, please explain.
They had to have been compromised.
Sabotage.
You seem so sure of that.
I'm not.
Sir, so what are you suggesting?
That the technology itself was faulty?
I'm telling you, the technology is not the issue.
I helped develop those recorders.
And you never make mistakes?
Gentleman!
There's no time for squabbling.
I want a full-scale investigation.
Mr. Berman,
I need that technology re-tested.
Mr. Parry,
before you and Miss Witham head overseas, head the investigation.
Wrap it up quickly.
All the ships at sea is counting on us.
Buchinsky, how are you?
Good, thank you.
Hi, Ivan. How you doing?
I met your wife. That sure was fast.
Well when it's real it happens fast.
I know you never expected me to be here.
See, the charges against me were dropped.
And I had nowhere else to go, so... here I am.
What about your... pal?
For the record, Betty and I didn't do anything wrong.
Is that how you see it?
My father's death was an accident.
Miss Andrews. Mr. Buchinsky.
We have a war to win.
Back to work.
Gladys.
Meet me on the shooting range.
Just be there.
Ten minutes.
Gladys?
Clifford?
Clifford!?
Clifford!!!
It is clearly as I had said.
Sabotage. Mr. Perry's murder here,
proves that he was on to something.
It's taking place in Halifax before the convoys ship out.
Or, in transit,
or on the line at Victory Munitions.
That's why I am placing an operative at the shipyards
and in transit,
and also one at the factory, thank you Mr. Berman.
I'll do it.
I'll cover the factory.
No. You're heading overseas.
But Clifford, Mr. Perry, he recruited me, he trained me.
I owe him.
If I can find the saboteur, then I can find his killer.
Miss Witham, don't get emotional.
Emotional? I am being rational.
Who else can you send in there without raising any suspicion?
I know that factory. My friends there, they trust me.
I can get information.
Sir, she makes an excellent point.
She has no field experience.
I was just assigned to Zurich.
With a man to keep watch over you.
So you don't trust me?
I trust her.
You will go to Victory Munitions
and while you are there, you will report to Mr. Berman
and to me.
Is that clear?
Yes, sir.
Mr. Perry developed your cover that you had
enlisted in the Canadian Women's Army Corps.
What will you tell people...?
I was kicked out. Insubordination.
Well, that should surprise no one.
Good day Mr. Davis.
everyone. Look who's back!
Ladies, we're still on the clock.
Kate!
Oh what a nice surprise.
Welcome back. I loved all your letters.
Hey!
Hey, Marco!
It's grand to see you all again.
Feels like coming home.
I see you're working on the new line downstairs.
Yes. Testing a new form of TNT.
Risky.
That's why it pays better.
I put in for a transfer down there. No way.
You'll be working with Ivan's wife.
Ivan's wife?
So... what happened with the CWACs?
I was discharged.
I find that hard to believe.
Why?
Insubordination.
Find that hard to believe now?
Hey!
I must admit, Miss Witham,
when I heard you joined up I was so proud.
Really? Thanks.
You know, I feel awful about being discharged.
If I could do it over I'd do things differently
yes well, my cousin is quite high up in the corps.
Why don't I call her and see if she can pull some strings?
Oh, that's kind of you, but no.
I actually, I miss being one of the bomb girls
glad to be back.
Excuse me.
Kate!
Hey, have you heard from Betty?
No.
She got out two months ago and not even a postcard.
But then... she must hate me.
Welcome to the underbelly
Vic Mu's best kept secret in sound navigation against German submarines.
We contribute to a system of components
to be installed on ships.
Which stands for Anti-Submarine Detection.
Here we assemble the range recorder unit,
the heart of the ASDIC system.
Mrs. Buchinsky. Head of quality control.
Arrives early for every shift. Our best worker.
Miss Witham. Your new deputy.
Go easy on her.
Thank you Mr. Berman.
Didn't know I needed a sidekick.
Should I be worried about my job?
No. I'm just here to help.
What we do here is prepare the range recorder
special paper reading device.
A very important job, probably the most important.
The paper gets treated with this solution,
potassium iodide and starch,
so it will record bearing distance
and depth of the reflected echoes from German U-boats.
We get them before they get us!
The only time this case gets opened after assembly
is to change the paper or the solution.
We shut it. Lock it, air tight.
Has to be.
Then we seal it.
It doesn't get opened until on board the ship
for security reasons.
Then once we're done, the case goes over there.
Not going too fast for you, am I?
I am not easily overwhelmed, Mrs. Buchinsky.
Good. You can call me Helen.
I think I'll leave that to Ivan.
Oh, those girls do love to gossip.
Not this one.
Then we'll get along just fine.
Mary, it's Lorna.
I was calling about a recruit who was discharged.
For insubordination.
Gladys Witham.
She worked my line for two years.
She really is one of the good ones.
And I was hoping that whatever happened in the corps
was just a misunderstanding,
and that you might be able to smooth it over
and get her back in?
Jane Clark, right?
Yes.
You're putting the inflow hose into the outflow nozzle.
Oh. I am. Sorry.
Just daydreaming. I'm not usually like this...
Something wrong?
What do you think you're doing?
Sorry. I just, I saw that she was--
Having a tough time. Yeah.
But lay off her. I can fix it here.
We gals look out for each other, like family.
Don't we girls!?
Yes we do!
This isn't one of your families ritzy stores, okay?
So tone down the arrogance,
or you'll be booted out of here
faster than how you got kicked out of the army corps.
You get that?
Mr. Berman.
Excuse me!
This isn't working out.
I can't be stuck at quality control
when I am supposed to be watching everyone,
the women and the men.
I need to be able to roam around.
Without Helen Buchinsky getting in my way.
And how do you expect to do that?
We'll say you now require a floor manager,
that you're ramping up production,
you're enhancing security protocols. That's your cover.
I'm not changing the plan.
We don't have much time.
Each shipment that leaves here before we find the saboteur
puts our convoys and escorts in danger.
I'm aware of the dire situation.
Well then you'll agree we need a new deputy at quality control.
Someone I can trust
who isn't afraid to ruffle some feathers
Betty McRae.
I've heard about her.
Convicted felon in the war's most top-secret program?
No. It'd be impossible to get her a security clearance.
If you can't get Betty a security clearance,
what kind of operative are you?

I'm going to go re-fresh our drinks.
Gladys!
Okay, Gladys Witham, the truth.
What did you do, exactly, to get kicked out of the CWACs?
I told my commanding officer
what I thought about some of their rules.
Bad girl.
You know something,
I was jealous when you signed up.
I really was.
White wine.
Miss Andrews,
please permit me to pay for that.
Thanks.
Philip Davis.
I have been listening to you for weeks now.
You sing beautifully.
Thank you.
Have you made records?
Oh no. This is just a hobby.
Well, please consider me your number one fan.
Well, Mr. Davis, how can I turn down my number one fan?
Cheers.
I surely appreciate the drink.
Gents!
Mr. Jakob Berman...
He's a dream boat, that one.
Something oh-so mysterious about him.
Oh you think so?
I don't really pay that much attention to him.
You don't lie so well, Gladys. You do realize that, don't you?
Do you know where Betty is?
I wrote her a couple of times while she was in prison.
And she never responded.
I even went to visit her once, and she refused to see me.
You know Betty. She's got her pride.
Vera...
This is me.
She called me
the day she got out,
to make sure Kate was still at the factory.
Betty made me promise not to tell a soul.
Especially Kate.
Yes but now she's out there all alone without her friends.
Where is she?
Damn that Vera Burr.
I should've known she couldn't keep a secret.
Vera was worried. And rightly so.
Sorry I distracted you and got you clobbered.
You didn't distract me.
Thanks Rex.
And that clown couldn't clobber a mouse.
I let her win.
What? I don't get it.
I make good money by losing.
Yeah, I'll win a few fights
to get the stakes up. To get people betting on me.
Then, I throw the fight.
That's illegal.
Surprise, surprise, princess.
What was it like?
In prison?
Oh, it was just for a few months. No big deal.
And the manslaughter charge?
Well cause I came forward voluntarily
they lessened the charges.
Leaving the scene. Failing to report.
End of story.
Betts, we miss you. I'm back at the factory.
And the war needs you.
Yeah, well, I don't need everyone mocking the jailbird.
In prison I got clear on how I wanna +++ +++ my life.
I want to be free.
And this is free? Hiding from Kate.
Don't you judge me.
I'm not judging you.
Did Kate send you?
No, no.
I'm working a new line. In the basement.
The story is we're testing a new form of TNT.
But that's a cover. The program is top secret.
I need someone I can trust,
someone who can tell if a girl isn't pulling her weight,
screwing up, or worse.
What do you mean worse?
We're at war, Betty. What do you think I mean?
You really trust me that much?
I trust you implicitly.
I can't go back there.
Sorry. Promised myself I wouldn't.
Kate says you won't come back because you hate her.
You hear that?
Hear what?
Nothing. That's just it.
The place is so empty, now that Sheila's married Ned.
Well you knew it was gonna be just you and me eventually, kid.
Think you can handle that?
Mmmhmm.
Hello?
Lorna, it's Mary.
Oh. Hi, Mary. That was quick.
I'm confused. There is no record of Gladys Witham
having enlisted in or being discharged from the corps.
Are you sure?
"And Joe DiMaggio,
who enlisted in the U.S. Army Air Force months ago..."
Shhh! I've been following this story for months.
"...is today boarding ship with his company
to go overseas and fight..."
We got to toast to Joe DiMaggio!
Ma, get the wine.
Get the wine please.
I cannot believe they're finally letting Italians fight.
Things really are changing.
Well that's in the U.S. of A.
not sure how fast things will change up here.
Can't be too soon for me.
Ma. Where's the wine?
Ma!
Papa.
Marco!
Is this true? You're out of that camp for good.
My family!
Hey Vera!
So you think I hate you?
Um...
I never wanted you to take the fall for me, Betty.
I tried to stop it from happening.
You never would have made it in prison.
It would've destroyed you.
I didn't write you. I didn't call.
I stayed away, let you move on.
As you can see, I'm still here.
I'm starting back at the factory today.
Wanted to tell you myself.
Well welcome home.
Oh! There's a girl moving out end of the week,
so there's a room available
I got a place across town.
Oh...
It's for the best.
Just for a little while.
I still want to get my own house, so...
Sure. Makes sense.
You're going to need your stuff. I um, I kept everything.
I hear Ivan's back at the factory.
Still love him, don't you?
No...
Things are different now.
Miss Witham.
I spoke with my cousin at the women's army corps.
There's no record of you having been enlisted.
You care to explain?
I um...
I was pregnant.
I lost the baby.
Miscarriage.
I haven't told anyone because I feel...
Ashamed.
I know you realize how difficult it can be.
When you had yours, I...
I'm sorry.
Mrs. Corbett, I'm sorry.
I shouldn't have.
I can't talk about this right now.
I understand.
I'll...
If you, um...
Need a sympathetic ear, ever
I'm always here for my girls...
Thank you.
Betty McRae.
Ivan is too much of a gentleman to say what should be said,
so I'll say it for him:
You sure have a pair of brass ones showing up here like this.
So the lovebirds are back, eh?
Or is it the jailbirds?
Relax, men can be such jerks.
But, then, God created Italians.
So you notice anything? Or anyone?
Apart from Mrs. Buchinsky being the wicked witch?
That Jane Clark sure is a nervous Nellie,
but I found out her beau went overseas
and she hasn't heard anything in weeks.
okay. Fine. Keep your eyes open.
Betts, I'm glad you're here.
You know Miss Witham,
that Betty McRae
I just don't trust people who aren't like us.
Take Mr. Berman.
What about him?
I saw him at the diner, eating bacon.
Didn't know Jews did that sort of thing.
If he's lying about that,
who knows what else he's lying about?
Vera didn't show up for work today. That's not like her.
And she's not answering her phone.
I'm worried.
Mangia... First you eat. Then you go see her.
So, I want to enlist. In the army.
Did you hear me Pa?
I want to enlist.
After all that Canada did to this family,
sending me to some prison camp, now you want to fight for them?
Pa, Joe DiMaggio enlisted--
So? He's not my son. My only son.
The army just wants Italians now because they invaded Sicily.
You are not going over there to kill your cousins
and then spill your blood on Sicilian soil.
No.
The war goes beyond this family Pa.
If you enlist I'll disown you, then you have no more family.
Hey!
I'm sure this isn't easy for you, Marco,
but I've been thinking about this for a while.
Don't worry.
We'll still get married.
Just not yet.
I need to do this. For me.
For our country. I hope you can understand.
Your father just come back.
You need to be all together.
I'll just get in the way.
Please, say something.
Vera, you do what you have to do.
Goodnight.
Jakob Berman?
Sabotaging his own devices?
That's what it looked like, sir.
Those cases are sealed and are only to be opened at sea.
So you think he killed Mr. Perry to cover his tracks?
All I can say for sure is that he's hiding something.
Well, he is the only one who has access to both this place
and Victory Munitions.
And, sir, I've been investigating a worker:
Jane Clark. That's not her real name.
Jane Schmidt. German.
She falsified papers to get a security clearance.
She was in Mr. Berman's office
there was definitely something going on.
And her father's been interred.
A German and a Jew. How ironic.
Alright, let's get the German out of the way first.
Yes, sir.
Miss Witham.
Mr. Perry's faith in you was well founded.
Nice work.
You really didn't have to come with me to the check-up.
I wanted to. It's my grandchild, after all.
Besides, we hardly get to see you and Ned anymore.
Mom, we're both so busy.
I know. I know.
Hey, oh I have an idea.
Why don't I host your baby shower?
Oh, one of the nurses already said she would do that.
And some gals are going to take care of the food.
It's a pot luck.
Well, what would you like me to do?
I could do the decorations? I could...
Mom. Nothing. It's weeks away.
Just come and enjoy yourself.
I'm sorry I didn't talk to you about the baby shower.
It's just my friends were really excited about it...
Yeah, I know. It's alright. It's alright.
Look at the time.
We should check on Dad.
Oh I have to go to the ladies room again, one second.
Okay, okay.
Good! Good!
Don't push it.
Soon you'll be on your own, not needing anyone's help.
Come on, just a few more steps.
Who is it?
It's Lorna Corbett.
Just a second.
Mrs. Corbett. This is unexpected.
I didn't want to do this in public.
The place is such a mess, sorry.
If you think this is a mess you should see my house.
I got these books from the library.
They're for women dealing with,
you know, losing a baby.
And they helped me when I needed it,
and I thought they could help you.
You can just put them on the bed.
And I'll walk out with you, I'm on my way out.
Where's the gun?
These are dangerous times.
A girl can't be too careful.
What you're going through now...
It can be an emotional roller coaster.
I know.
Are you sure you're feeling
yourself?
Yes.
Does the baby's father know?
I don't mean to rude, but-
Do I know the father?
Was it my son's baby?
No.
No. That's not possible.
Mrs. Corbett,
Gene and I never...
I have an appointment before work, so...
Yes of course. I'm so sorry.
I just worry about my girls.
I'm not one of your girls anymore.
Morning. Can I give you a lift?
How do you know where I live?
We're co-workers, Jane. Hop in.
That's okay. I usually take the streetcar.
Well then today's your lucky day.
Sure.
Great.
I just need to make one quick stop first. Okay?
So where are you from?
Hamilton.
Oh? I know several Clark families there.
It's funny we've never crossed paths before.
Is that where your father's from?
No. Saskatoon.
A lot of European immigrants settled on the prairies, right?
A lot of Germans...
Miss Schmidt?
Your father is from Munich.
He's now in an internment camp for Nazi sympathizers.
You falsified your papers to get a security clearance.
That's a felony.
I am a Canadian.
I was born here.
You and me, we're the same.
Miss Schmidt, please step out of the car.
You're making a mistake.
I am following orders.
Mr. Akins!
Here's that report you wanted.
I didn't want to leave without giving it to you...
My taxi's waiting. I gotta run.
Bye.
Good luck Vera.
Hi!
Well...
Take a good long look cause you won't be seeing this
till I'm back from over seas.
Hold on.
Do you really think we're going to let you go without a hug?
Private Vera Burr.
Congratulations honey.
We are so proud of you.
I'll put in a word for ya with the CWACs.
My taxi's waiting. I hate goodbyes.
Say, Kate,
why don't you join up?
You know what they say about CWACs...
I've had just about enough of you, Donald.
- You think you know so much? - Betty...
I'm gonna knock it right outta you.
Betty.
Betty, stop it!
Hey! I don't fight women.
Why not? Scared you'll lose?
Betts, get a hold of yourself. He's not worth it.
This is exactly why I didn't want to come back here.
Vera.
Marco.
I know you need to do this,
but I need to do this...
It was my grandmothers.
Oh I wish I could stay, I do.
It's okay, I'll wait for you.
Come here.
I love you.
Ti voglio bene.
You wanted to see me?
Come in, sit down.
Close the door.
Who gave you the order to have Jane Clark
arrested this morning?
Her last name is Schmidt.
And Mr. Davis gave me the order.
And you didn't check with me first?
Take it up with Mr. Davis.
Sit down!
What was all that about between you
and Miss Schmidt the other day?
I was telling her that I'd have to fire her
if she kept messing up.
Well, then I just saved you the trouble of firing her.
Is that all?
No.
No, that is not all.
Miss Schmidt is not our saboteur.
And what makes you so sure of that?
She tried to hang herself.
A guard stopped her, just in time.
In her note, she confessed to being of German heritage.
Apologized for lying about it.
Begged...
begged forgiveness.
Does that sound like a saboteur to you?
Mr. Berman, sir.
Hey.
Someone likes you.
Sure you wouldn't rather be with him right now?
Tonight is for my friend Betty.
What you did today at the factory--
Yeah, I know, it was stupid.
No. It was brave.
My dream home.
It is beautiful.
So, you got the loan from the bank?
No. They turned me down.
Called me too much of a risk.
And a few other things.
Jerks.
Just come back to the rooming house--
No.
The bank said maybe if I came up with half the down payment--
Betty... why put yourself through this?
Cause I need a house, okay?
Cause I deserve it.
Cause it's my haven. And that ain't no crime.
Why are you here?
What, are you going to kill me now
like you killed Clifford?
What the hell are you talking about?
What were you doing with those range recorders last night?
You're spying on me now?
No, I investigate anyone that looks suspicious.
I was attaching some security tabs inside some of the casings.
An operative in Halifax will check the shipment
to see if they've been compromised.
That way we know if the sabotage is taking place in transit.
Is that satisfactory?
What are you doing here?
And those men inside?
We're activists,
drawing attention to the suffering of European Jews.
This government refuses to acknowledge the work camps.
If they did, they'd have to accept refugees.
But why can't you talk about it?
Our work at the farm prohibits any political activity
so if our superiors were to find out about my meetings
I would be fired.
Maybe even deported.
The truth is...
My parents are in one such camp...
If they're even still alive.
I was wrong about Jane.
Seems I was wrong about you.
Maybe Clifford was wrong about me.
Maybe I can't do this.
This job is hard.
You have to lie to friends and family.
You doubt everything and everyone.
But don't doubt yourself.
What now?
On Sunday night, a train will arrive from Halifax
with four unused range recorders
that have not been installed on any vessel.
We always send extra, in case they add ships.
I will check the range recorders
to see if they've been tampered with
but they had to have been working
when we assembled them here
otherwise they would have never passed quality control
Helen Buchinsky.
She's the last one that signs off on each recorder.
Yes, yes, yes, and her work is excellent.
Davis himself vetted her.
I'm sorry I kicked you.
I'm sorry I shoved you against a wall.
Do you... do you eat bacon?
No.
Why would you even ask that?
I was just curious, sorry.
My mind's all over the place.
Yes, mine too.
Come on, Clifford, you were going to tell me something
show me something.
What!?
Gladys, meet me at the firing range.
You and Helen make a sweet couple.
How'd you two meet?
Who put you up to this?
Kate?
Ivan, no, no one put me up to this.
So... come on, how'd you two meet?
After the scandal with Betty and Kate, I quit.
And there was this bar I was drowning my sorrows at.
And Helen was a waitress there.
And a good listener.
Yeah, she must be for you to propose so fast.
Actually, that was her idea.
Really? Wow. She's got...
Yes, yes she does.
Brass ones.
So how did she end up here?
Um, she wanted to work here, do her part.
So I put in a good word with Akins.
That got her in the door but,
she got herself put into the TNT program.
Yeah, and she's doing great work there.
I'm proud of her.
Actually, shes the reason
I decided to come back here myself.
Well it's good to have you back.
What do her parents think of her working here?
She's an orphan, doesn't have any parents.
Oh.
Now she's got you. Lucky girl.
I was wrong about Mr. Berman
sabotaging those range recorders the other night.
He was checking them for sabotage.
Well we're still watching him.
What have you found out?
That you were right. He's hiding something.
That has nothing to do with this case.
You seem certain of that, what's he hiding?
An affair. With a Christian woman.
They want to keep it quiet, for obvious reasons.
Sir, I would like to look into Helen Buchinsky.
Found this by Mr. Perry's desk.
Where did you find this?
Under the filing cabinet.
Sir, the fact she was under surveillance is significant.
There's another thing;
Mr. Buchinsky thinks Helen is an orphan.
She was born in Kingston.
Her parents still live there, both very much alive.
I went to the archives here and discovered that
her father was known in the past
to express pro-fascist sympathies.
That was likely overlooked because he and Helen's mother aren't actually married.
Before Helen got married, she went by her mother's last name
Kent.
This is excellent work.
Investigate Helen Buchinsky. Report back to me.
She's on to you.
How did you get in here?
Don't ask stupid questions.
It is no longer sufficient just to mislead and distract Miss Witham.
We're beyond that now.
As we were with Mr. Perry...
He was on to us too.
So what do we do?
Our boys in Kingston will derail that train
coming in from Halifax on Sunday night.
The sabotaged range recorders will be destroyed
then we'll fire Berman and deport him.
And what about Gladys Witham?
This is a new device. From our R&D lab at the Farm.
It's called a firefly. Looks like a mechanical pencil.
Turn it to the right and the lead emerges.
Turn it to the left, the lead still emerges
but it ignites a two-minute fuse and detonates the explosive
inside the pencil.
Powerful enough to kill the person holding it.
Last night's train derailment in Kingston
caused a major fire,
destroying the train's entire shipment.
Local officials are calling it an accident--
That was no accident. They blew up that train.
Didn't want us to check those four unused recorders.
They must know we're on to them.
The sabotage is as far-reaching as we thought.
So where is Helen Buchinsky in all this.
Davis told me to investigate her.
I'm supposed to report back to him tonight.
If she was under surveillance, then someone suspected something.
Must be why Clifford was killed.
Right, but how can we connect Helen to the train crash?
Kingston.
Her father, he lives there.
And he used to be pro-Nazi. Maybe he still is.
I'll get someone to watch him...
And I'll keep a close eye on Helen.
We'll both keep an eye on her.
Be careful, Miss Witham.
Gladys.
You be careful too, Jakob.
Betty!
So you're a bomb girl now.
Careful your head don't explode.
Betty McRae, I can't tell you what a welcome sight you are.
Too bad I can't say the same for you, Rex.
Excuse me, I'm late for work.
So...How's about
you and Franny again? Midnight tonight.
Rex, I am done with that racket.
You know, since you left,
I can't find a girl that can take a dive without being spotted
you're an artist, Betty.
Save your breath. Not interested.
It's a big fight.
I'll double the usual money.
You're wasting your time. And mine.
I know your type, Betty!
You'll be there,
you'll be there tonight.
The security guard said you needed to see me.
About that gun you had.
I don't think you were telling me the truth.
Mrs. Corbett, please.
I think you might be unbalanced,
a danger to yourself, and to the factory.
So, please, just tell me, what's going on?
Please, just trust me when I say this is no concern of yours.
Every part of this factory is my concern.
You overestimate your reach and influence.
I could have you fired.
For falsifying your records.
For... lying about the women's army corps.
I don't work for you, I don't answer to you.
Down here on this line, we have immunity.
Immunity?
For what?
Good day, Mrs. Corbett.
You're no better than all those men who dismiss us.
Immunity or not, Miss Witham,
I can still keep my eye on you...
And I will.
Alright!
I got a letter from Vera and she wants me to read it to everybody.
Oh!
Hey!
How wonderful.
Helen, won't you join us?
Why not? You know, I always admire Vera for enlisting.
Lorna, come on.
I have no idea when I'm shipping out.
They don't tell us that stuff.
You know what I miss?
The beef tongue that Lorna makes
Kate's singing. Betty's spunk.
Gladys' gorgeous gowns.
And even Carol's snotty ways.
We made quite the team, didn't we?
I am a better soldier because of it.
Truth is, I'm scared about going overseas but excited, too.
Knowing how much you're rooting for me helps.
Where would I be without my friends?
That's it, the rest is for me.
Hey, why don't you all write a letter back to Vera
and everyone can say something to her?
Yes!
That's a great idea.
Anybody got a pencil?
I do.
Just turn it to the left to get the lead to pop out
I'll be right back. Have to go to the loo.
Anybody got, oh! You got paper?
Let's go have a cigarette together
I think I'm going to write something to Vera.
Just tell her that Marco's been weeping everyday.
Alright, alright.
Don't make me jealous, sweetheart.
You've got nothing to worry about.
I love you.
Who is first?
Oh, oh!
Tell her Mr. Akins cried in his office after she left.
That's not true.
No... tell her Marco's been a good boy.
That is true!
Tell her, Ivan's wife is driving me crazy
okay, just everyone, one at a time
where's that pencil?
Use mine.
Betty, you go first
but say something nice about Helen,
it's a nice letter.
So what are you going to say to Vera?
I'm going to tell her that
friendship can cross the ocean and time.
Okay, okay, so Carol has a new boyfriend.
I'd like to tell Vera that you and I are friends.
Can I tell her that?
Sure.
No, no, no.
Can you do me a favour?
Try and make an effort with Helen?
She doesn't have a lot friends.
I will do more than try.
Tell her we're very proud of her
and we hope she comes home safe.
Oh, isn't that Helen's?
How'd it get there?
Thanks.
Ivan wanted us to be friends.
He stayed in that canteen because of you.
What?
Been jealous of you from the day he first told me your name.
Whenever he said it...
He'd get that... That look in his eye.
It wasn't the way he ever looked at me,
I can tell you that much.
I asked him to go outside with me.
He said no.
He's dead.
Because of you.
Lorna!
I love you...
Look at you. You're so strong.
Will you still need me?
Do you think I was going to leave you behind?
I've been doing a lot of thinking.
My father's death. That was my fault.
That's not true...
Now Ivan...
You are not to blame.
I have blood on my hands. So do you.
We make bombs that kill people.
Do you realize how many people we must have killed?
Do you even think about it?
I can't go back to the factory.
Thankfully, the damage was restricted to the canteen area
but there were several injuries, and one casualty, male.
The cost of war.
Mrs. Buchinsky must be devastated, thank you.
Davis.
Yes.
No one from the factory reports to the Farm but you and me.
I checked. We are the only operatives there.
But Davis knew Ivan Buchinsky was dead before I even told him.
Helen.
Davis himself vetted her.
Davis...
Clifford must've found a link between them...
I saw Helen tampering with a range recorder today.
Managed to separate it from the others.
But because of the increased security,
I can't get it out until tomorrow.
We have to check it before it ships out.
We're on our own...
For now.
What?
When I heard that explosion,
all I could think of was you,
I may never see you again.
At times, you confound me, even infuriate me but I can't...
If I take the fall tonight with Franny,
I want more than double.
Okay, okay. Five hundred bucks.
See? I knew you couldn't stay away.
Shut up, Rex.
What are you doing?
Kate is fragile.
I'm going to give her a home.
You think taking the fall tonight is going to pay enough to make that happen?
Betty! I put everything on you to win
every last penny I was saving to hire a lawyer for my dad.
Six hundred bucks.
No, Marco. That's crazy. Put it on Franny.
I don't need a lawyer anymore.
You'll lose your money, you idiot.
The odds are ten to one.
I know the odds are ten to one.
Think of how much money you could make
enough for your down payment and this could be your last fight.
What do you say...?
How do you know I'm gonna win?
Vera says you're a champ.
Yeah!!
Betty, what the heck are you doin'?
What the hell happened, Harold?
This is a bloody mess. I have to answer to my board of directors.
You also have to answer to us.
Who is this woman?
Mrs. Corbett, she's one of our best--
Get her out of here.
Mr. Galloway, we need to shut this place down
until we find out what caused that explosion.
Because, until we know, every life here is in danger.
We're not shutting this place down. We are at war.
Someone died. How many more have to die before you-
Mrs. Corbett, I really think that you should just...
What? Keep quiet?
Not anymore.
I insist on a full investigation--
You insist? Who do you think you are?
This is my factory.
And the workers are my responsibility...
Not anymore. You're fired.
Mr. Galloway, please.
She's out of here, Harold. Finished.
No one tells me how to run my factory.
Well clearly, someone should.
Miss Demers.
Lorna... Lorna.
Look, I can fix this.
Just say you're sorry.
That would be lying.
Hello.
Yesterday's convoy went down.
Your work at Vic Mu is done.
I want you to pack up and leave town.
But won't my sudden disappearance only raise suspicions?
The grieving widow decided visit Ivan's family in Winnipeg.
The War Department deeply regrets to inform you that your fiancee
Vera Burr,
Private, Canadian Women's Army Corps,
has been declared killed during the performance of her duty
and in the service of her country.
The ship on which she was traveling,
was part of a convoy sunk by U-boats.
The department extends its deepest sympathies
further more, the government of Canada deeply regrets
this grave loss and solute the deceased for her value

Are you sure this is the recorder Helen tampered with?
Yes.
Patience.
The solution tank.
Too light.
Hand me that.
Hardly any solution in it.
Just enough to pass the install,
a test or two, then it's empty.
Damn it!
They don't turn the recorders on until they need them, out at sea.
By the time they figure somethings gone wrong
our ships are sitting ducks for the Nazis.
Yesterday's convoy had no chance in hell!
This proves sabotage.
Now all we have to do is connect Helen and Davis.
We do not know how many are involved,
how high up this thing goes.
There is one person we can trust to help.
Gladys, we're bound by the Official Secrets Act.
I know, but if we want her help then I have to tell her something.
Like what?
The truth.
If the ASDIC program weren't being sabotaged, Vera would be alive.
And she needs to know that.
Who's she?
Oh. Hi...
A bill of sale.
A house.
My house.
With a room for you.
For me?
Yeah.
For as long as you need to stay.
Until the war is over.
Or until you meet the man of your dreams.
But for now, you have a home.
I want to sing...
So, sing.
No. I mean as a career.
I just want to go after it,
the way Vera always went after what she wanted.
She knew the risks, but she wasn't afraid.
Okay. I'll buy all your records.
Just don't make me dance to them.
Mrs. Corbett, are you in there?
Oh lord...
There was no pregnancy, no miscarriage.
I see.
That explosion, it was no mistake. I was the target.
I have intelligence it was caused by
one of these. It's called a firefly.
It was meant for me,
but now Ivan is dead and other people are hurt.
I need your help.
You need my help?
Yes Mrs. Corbett. You deserve the truth.
And you need to know how and why Vera died.
Do you want some tea?
Thank you.
Why come to me?
Who else would I go to? You care.
Too much.
No one can care too much.
I think you and I are alike in that way.
No, I can't help you.
So what? Are you going to hide here in your house sewing curtains?
I am not a spy.
And I'm not asking you to be one.
I just need you to be the person to knocks on Helen's door.
Why?
Because she'll open it for you, Mrs. Corbett.
No more Mrs. Corbett. It's Lorna.
Okay. Lorna.
Will you come with me to talk to Betty and Kate?
We need them, too.
Well Vera did say we're a team, didn't she?
What's the plan?
Well, my room isn't much, I know,
but I do have scotch. Single malt.
I invited you to dinner, Miss Andrews?
What are we doing here?
Having a good time.
Nothing wrong with that, is there?
No.
To my number one fan.
It's good scotch.
Well, I have good taste.
Who told you to invite me here?
No one.
You're the one who gave me your number.
This is just pre-dinner drinks.
More scotch?
Mrs. Corbett. What a surprise.
I came by to offer my condolences.
See how you're doing. I brought you an apple pie.
I double up on the cinnamon...
gives it a bit of kick.
It's my secret, don't tell anyone.
There we go.
I can't stay long, I just uh...
I want to tell you something.
I know what you're up to.
You killed Ivan. And Vera.
And all those soldiers lost at sea.
You shouldn't have said that.
Why not? It's the truth.
Where are your manners, Helen?
Aren't you going to offer us some apple pie?
So do you think Hitler will win?
I have no idea. What do you think?
Well, he has allies here, friends, helping him.
Yeah?
How do you know this?
Oh, I hear things.
From whom?
People.
Philip Davis is in custody and he's singing like a songbird.
I have no idea what you're talking about.
I'm just a grieving widow.
I have it on record. From Ivan.
He told me that the marriage was your idea.
And nothing but a cover.
We loved each other.
Our operatives have had you under surveillance for months.
We know that you're a Nazi sympathizer.
And you're being educed by a Jew.
You're wasting your time and your breath.
I don't know anything.
Two hours ago in Kingston, your father was arrested.
For his part in the train derailment.
Honey, I know you're scared. I can see it in your eyes.
The ultimate sentence for treason, is hanging.
If you want to save your father's life and yours
I suggest you think very hard about what you say next.
You know the first time I went to that bar...
To hear you sing?
I was watching you.
Uh...
Just to make sure you weren't going to be any trouble.
Oh. So am I trouble?
Yeah, you're trouble alright.
Your voice, that face... Those lips.
Mr. Davis lays it all on you. Says you're the mastermind.
That's not true.
Well then what is true?
Are you part of a conspiracy to sabotage the ASDIC program?
You can't prove that.
I have an eyewitness who saw you tampering with the second shipment.
You were removing the impregnating solution from the devices.
Think of your father.
I want to make a deal.
For me and for my father.
First, tell me how many other shipments you sabotaged.
Two or three. I can't remember.
It was very clever to leave just enough solution in the tank
to pass the install and the testing.
I was just following orders.
Who put you up to tonight’s little act?
Act...?
I don't know what you mean...
You know that when you lie your left eyebrow twitches?
You're hurting my arm.
Did you kill Clifford Perry?
Did Davis say that?
Well he's a liar.
He's the mastermind.
What are we doing here, Miss Andrews?
Getting to know each other.
You're going too fast, hold on a second
Got any cigarettes? Kate?
Sorry.
I need a smoke.
Can you hold on?
Got an extra cigarette?
Sure.
They're in my purse.
Davis runs a pro-Nazi ring across the country.
Been at it for years.
He's the one who suggested I marry Ivan.
The train crash. Everything.
And he's the one who killed Clifford Perry.
We'll consider a deal only once you write everything down.
We need names.
Every pro-Nazi group and everyone who was involved.
Jakob... it's done.
Arrest him.
We've done it, now we can protect our soldiers at sea.
How can you betray your country?
I believe in Hitler and what he stands for.
You don't even know what he stands for.
You've been given an assignment.
Overseas.
Here, your cover will be that you've been accepted back into the CWACs.
Overseas, we will be operating as husband and wife.
Will that be a problem?
Well, we'll have to find a way to make us appear... convincing.
I'm not quite sure that's going to be enough.
Maybe some more convincing?
