Herr Flick is still held in the dungeons, and if he cracks he can divulge that the painting of the Fallen Madonna have been copied. Thatandacute;s why he must be rescued by Helga, von Smallhousen, and Renandeacute; - dressed as Himmler.
The Colonel and the Lieutenant are ordered by the General to let Herr Flick die in a rescue attempt by the Randeacute;sistance, but seeing the danger of getting caught in a crossfire, they dress up as Gestapo officers to rescue Herr Flick, only to find Renandeacute; chained up instead.
In this spoof of World War II, Renandeacute; Artois runs a cafandeacute; in German-occupied France. He always seems to have his hands full: He's having affairs with most of his waitresses, he's keeping his wife happy, he's trying to please the German soldiers who frequent his cafandeacute;, and he's running a major underground operation for the Resistance.
