- Major Pott: [driven mad after being lost in the catacombs for days] Cannon to the right of them! Cannon to the left of them! Volley'd and thunder'd and Donder and Blitzen!
- Capt. Oppo: [salutes Capt. Cash] Captain Fausto Oppo at your service.
- Capt. Lionel Cash: [returns the salute]
- Capt. Oppo: Do you surrender?
- Capt. Lionel Cash: What the hell you mean, surrender?
- Capt. Oppo: Do not get excited Captain. I was merely asking.
- Capt. Lionel Cash: I'd rather die than surrender.
- Capt. Oppo: Really? Oh, ridiculous. Ask me to surrender.
- Capt. Lionel Cash: Well... will you surrender?
- Capt. Oppo: But of course!
- [shouts in Italian to his soldiers and the townspeople. There is great jubilation. Then the whole town sings "The Eyes of Texas Are Upon You'"]
- Capt. Lionel Cash: After dark, I want you to start slipping the men out.
- Lt. Christian: Well, so what happens when there are only five of us left. They're bound to notice something.
- Capt. Lionel Cash: A chance we will have to take.
