- Lieutenant Commander Ewen Montagu: If we turn up at that address, it could only mean that we've been tipped off, and that the whole Martin story is a plant. This man will have committed suicide, but Jerry will know the answer, and our operation will be blown. I'm sorry, sir, but we mustn't touch him. We daren't.
- General Coburn: You mean till after we think he's got a message through.
- Lieutenant Commander Ewen Montagu: No sir, right up to the time of the landings. Because the fact that there have been no further messages from him might give the game away.
- General Coburn: You realize he'll probably be out of the country in a couple of days.
- Lieutenant Commander Ewen Montagu: Yes, and we must let him go. After all, he's done us no harm.
- General Coburn: Masterly inactivity.
- Lieutenant Commander Ewen Montagu: "They also serve who only stand and wait."
