Contents/Summary

Summary
The eighth episode starts of with Tihi finding out about his new assignment – his team has to blow up a German military train on its way through Belgrade. His friend Kosinus constructs the timer and Prle is in charge of getting the explosives. Prle also manages to persuade his neighbor Joca to help them get into the train station through the nearby post-office. Disguised as postmen, the three agents load the special train’s post van, while Paja appears on the platform as a regular passenger. Joca then finds out that he will have to escort the post van as far as the Romanian border. The group wants to abandon the assignment, but Prle suggests that Joca could jump out of the train near Pančevo where he can contact partisans. Paja diverts the German guards and the bomb is safely planted on board. In the carriage, Joca discovers that the doors are locked, but he jumps out through the hidden trapdoor a few hundred meters before the train explodes.
