That was impressive. Come on.

Vera Atkins:
General Maurice Buckmaster, head of F Section.
Col. Maurice Buckmaster:
Apologies for the surprise. This is the only way to assess our agents' ability to withstand torture. The Gestapo won't go easy on you just because you're a woman.
Virginia Hall:
And I don't plan to go easy on them because they're men.
Col. Maurice Buckmaster:
Miss Atkins has suggested putting you into unoccupied territory as our first female field agent. Now, I know your training isn't quite complete, but we need people on the ground, so I'm inclined to give it a try. If you do decide to join us, we assess the odds of you coming home at no more than 50%. Take a moment, consider our offer.
Virginia Hall:
[immediately]
Yes.
Col. Maurice Buckmaster:
Welcome to the Baker Street Irregulars, Virginia.
Vera Atkins:
Operational name, Brigitte.
Col. Maurice Buckmaster:
Now, a warm bath and a hot toddy.
