While in a reconnaissance patrol in an abandoned French winery, Saunders and Kirby stumble upon two Germans in an observation post. Kirby protects the radio in an empty building but is shot by a German officer called Heismann. Sunders kills one German soldier and Heismann rescues Kirby expecting to force Saunders to surrender. However the wounded Kirby destroys the German radio and Heismann uses his hunting rifle to hunt down Saunders. Meanwhile Saunders gets out of ammunition with the dangerous hunter seeking him out.
Lee Marvin guest stars as a sergeant in command of a small demolition team that Saunders and his squad is ordered to take behind German lines to destroy a bridge. Lee Marvin does not believe the squad is large enough to handle the job of getting him to the bridge and back alive. He requests a platoon but is refused by Lieutenant Hanley. Marvin submits but has a huge chip on his shoulder due to a close friend being killed while on a similar mission. He has no confidence in Saunders or his men to get the job done and frequently ridicules them during the mission.
