...from Paris on the run. The colonel cannot find a car; Jacobowsky finds one but cannot drive. Grandly tossing out Jacobowsky's luggage, the colonel condescends to take the wheel, and off they go-smack toward the Nazis in order to fetch the colonel's pretty mistress (Annabella-see p. 62).

...kill Churchill is being engineered by none other than the Nazi who caused his crash, he jumps a German plane, quite naturally shoots the Nazi down. When the in-flying American has a hell of a time convincing British authorities by radio that he is not a Nazi, Doctor Annabella is luckily on deck to save the situation.
