This was a not-entirely-satisfying tribute to neutrality and pacifism with many minor plot lines ``resolved'' in a sophomoric fashion. As an example, does the Doctor make his decision because of the Germans' military use of his life's work; York and Sommer's faux-affair (for which there is no evidence, anyway); A patriotic attempt to ``drop ballast''??? Still, the plot was compelling, a British officer torn between his current loyalty and his recent German roots. I had sympathy for York's character, but the conclusion had too many loose ends and was too vanilla to satisfy.
