Some time bomb

Stalag 17 • 1953

Price:
Something I've been meaning to ask you. It has to do with security. Bagradian:
Shoot. Price:
We're having a hard time keeping our stuff hidden from the Krauts. Like our escape equipment, for instance. So we're always looking for new devices. Bagradian:
Uh-huh. Price:
Looks like you found one. Bagradian:
Me? Price:
Well, I mean the lieutenant. He hid a time bomb on him, right? He even carried it all the way through prisoners' search, didn't he? Well, where did he hide it? Bagradian:
Right in his pocket. The old cigarette-match gag. Price:
What's that? Bagradian:
[quickly demonstrating]
You take a book of matches, light a cigarette, slip it in. It takes about three minutes for the cigarette to burn down. Then it sets off the matches. Simple. Price:
