Series 2 - The Gâteau From The Château
General Von Klinkerhoffen's control over the town is beginning to be felt, and no one is happy; not the resistance, nor the army, and certainly not the gestapo. But with the help of drugs, poison darts and exploding confectionery, one party must be able to stop him - right?
Further details
General Von Klinkerhoffen orders Colonel Von Strom to woo Edith in order to infiltrate the Resistance. The Colonel soon relegates the duty to Captain Goering. The wind changes on the balloon carrying the British airmen, forcing them to land in Fanny's bedroom. Herr Flick plots the death of General Von Klinkerhoffen by poison dart, with Helga assigned to do the fatal deed. Michelle has Edith bake a Black Forest Cake packed with dynamite for the General's party.
