* Crawling around a dark basement, alone and separated from any help, [[StealthBasedMission trying to avoid patrolling German soldiers and get out without being caught and shot.]] Certainly a scary experience from the perspective of the defenceless young girl you're carrying, and a tense moment for a fair few adults as well.

** Even worse, what Zussman went through was bad enough - but this was with him not being outed as Jewish, who Metz was trying to single out from the soldiers specifically for execution instead of just the labor camps. Had the Private not backtalked the officer to get him and his comrades put on the labor trains, either they would've been executed one by one or Zussman would've probably been dead within the week had he been fully compromised.

* Liberation: where Rousseau [[DressingAsTheEnemy disguises herself as an SS officer]] and sneaks into the German's HQ in Paris. Walking among armed Nazi guards is scary enough, but if they have even the slightest reason to believe you're doing something you aren't supposed to, they'll immediately demand your documents, where you must explain your reasoning which must match your cover story. Get it wrong and it's game over. Even if you do manage to get past them, there's the moment where you're trapped alone in the office of SS Polizeiführer Heinrich, aka the man responsible for killing Rousseau's parents husband, and son [[note]]having personally drowned the latter![[/note]], who bursts in and demands to know why you're in his office without his permission. It's the weighted and deep soundtrack, along with the [[RedFilterOfDoom ambient lighting]] that make the scene impossibly tense. Then he reveals that he [[OhCrap isn't fooled by your disguise]].

**There are a lot of very graphic moments in this scene.\\
When the landing craft you are on reach the beach and the ramp is downed your squad is effortlessly gunned down, with one of them losing the upper part of the head, another one loses his arm. As soon as you reach cover with Lt. Turner you are greeted with the visual of a unfortunate engineer who got his arms blown off and left in a pool of his own blood.
