| 00:00 - 00:03 | Sir, its that IOD course again |
| 00:04 - 00:05 | a pair of hungover students |
| 00:05 - 00:07 | ended up in Berlin |
| 00:08 - 00:12 | after taking the wrong train |
| 00:12 - 00:15 | But there's no hotels due to the Euro's |
| 00:17 - 00:19 | Can't they get a Gruber back |
| 00:19 - 00:21 | and claim it on JPA? |
| 00:24 - 00:26 | Mein Fuhrer, |
| 00:27 - 00:28 | it's... |
| 00:31 - 00:33 | It's that Remote Syndicate, let loose with the internet |
| 00:34 - 00:36 | And they need to analyse your V-weapon strategy |
| 00:53 - 00:58 | The rest of the Directing Staff are dismissed. |
| 01:13 - 01:15 | Von Wooler how dare you |
| 01:15 - 01:17 | bring back attention |
| 01:18 - 01:23 | to the most expensive, resource intensive |
| 01:25 - 01:28 | waste of time in the entire war |
| 01:29 - 01:31 | I should have known Barbarossa |
| 01:31 - 01:34 | and the bloody Americans |
| 01:34 - 01:37 | would stretch us too far |
| 01:37 - 01:40 | This was meant to be a short war |
| 01:40 - 01:42 | But the psychological effect on the British |
| 01:42 - 01:46 | They don't care, with their stiff upper lips |
| 01:46 - 01:48 | We are technologically superior |
| 01:48 - 01:52 | They're bombing our cities, the launch sites |
| 01:53 - 01:54 | V for vengeance! |
| 01:56 - 01:57 | They have no strategic value |
| 01:57 - 02:00 | other than fear and revenge |
| 02:00 - 02:03 | Just a response to our failure in the air |
| 02:04 - 02:08 | The Luftwaffe is decimated, their Army is rampaging through France |
| 02:08 - 02:13 | I've given my besties top jobs but they've no idea how to run industry |
| 02:14 - 02:16 | the economy is on its knees |
| 02:17 - 02:21 | I've thrown so much money at this pathetic project |
| 02:27 - 02:29 | i should have spent it elsewhere |
| 02:30 - 02:34 | better training, solving the logistics chain |
| 02:34 - 02:36 | wonder weapon my a**e |
| 02:41 - 02:42 | I'm tactically excellent |
| 02:43 - 02:47 | but this ideology is all consuming and driving me insane |
| 02:48 - 02:53 | We've not been flexible or adaptable |
| 02:54 - 02:56 | Small mercies i suppose |
| 02:56 - 02:59 | at least we've diverted attention from OVERLORD |
| 03:00 - 03:02 | and put pressure ontheir 'special relationship' |
| 03:04 - 03:07 | Don't worry, he'll kill himself next year |
| 03:14 - 03:16 | Our tactical excellence |
| 03:19 - 03:23 | is nothing without a sound strategy |
| 03:25 - 03:26 | our great scientists |
| 03:31 - 03:33 | will defect after the war |
| 03:40 - 03:46 | Our 'terror weapons' were meant to be a propaganda triumph |
| 03:46 - 03:49 | an example of our technological supremacy |
| 03:53 - 03:56 | too little too late |
