David stands up naked and begins singing loudly. He believes they’ll be dead even sooner if it is Paddy out there. If you don’t sing it in the next 30 seconds, the procedure is to open fire. David says you sing the second verse now to confirm they’re not Germans. When David’s group camps out for the night, they begin hearing singing nearby. Jock says they’ll withdraw and come back like Julius Caesar. They aren’t sure they can continue because the water has turned the desert into quicksand. Although he is told the Lewes bombs are useless, he invented them and will decide when they’re useless. Jock learns that water is getting into the compass and bombs. Paddy stays behind to be with Eoin whose hand and face are being uncovered by the wind. He tells them to go ahead and he’ll catch up with them. Paddy doesn’t like the idea of standing down. If they wipe themselves out, it’ll be the only thing they ever did. They attempt to convince him that they need to move to higher ground before they get washed away by the rain. Paddy tells Dave Kershaw (Bobby Schofield) that they’re still going to the airfields. They’ve found one machine gun and six grenades. He eventually runs into some of the others and learns that Eoin McGonigal has died. Paddy walks alone while shooting his gun into the air several times. He says they will head north because he would do it even if he were alone. When Fraser says there are only eight of them, Jock says there will only be seven if he makes that observation again. He works with Pat Riley (Jacob Ifan) to try to figure out where they are and where the airfields are. Jock tells him he is lucky they don’t have to salute in the SAS before trying to pop his arm back into place. Bill Fraser is hesitant to do so since there are only eight of them left. Jock believes fortune is with them so they should move to the airfields. Jonny Cooper (Jacob McCarthy) says he found explosives and machine guns. In the morning, Jock sits with his remaining men. David says a prayer for the man and himself. Peter says he cannot stand this pain before pulling out his gun and killing himself. He finds Mitcham who was dragged over the cliff and heard his spine snap. They have to cut the straps on their parachutes to save themselves. It is chaos as the men hit the ground and get drug by the fierce winds. Before long, the men begin jumping from the planes.
David tells his men what they’ll do before checking on Peter Mitcham (Nicholas Nunn). David is encouraged to protect his men, but he refuses and asks the pilot to descend. He is warned that it’ll be suicide if he goes out in this. The pilot lets David know that they’re only two minutes from the drop. Eoin (Donal Finn) writes about Paddy who also writes about him. Jock Lewes (Alfie Allen) writes a letter to his dearest Mirren to talk about marriage and the possibility of dying tonight. On the plane, a letter to one of the soldier’s mothers is read. As they board the plane, the men drop letters into a bag so they can be sent to loved ones back home. He is eventually told to get his man onboard the plane. David warns the pilot that it’ll be on his conscience if Auchinleck’s advance is stopped by air superiority and Tobruk falls to the enemy. Many lives depend on the SAS blowing the planes up on the ground. David Stirling (Connor Swindells) tries to explain the importance of going immediately to prevent the enemy from taking more land. Paddy Mayne (Jack O’Connell) begins arguing with the postmen about flying the plane.
The third episode of SAS Rogue Heroes begins three months later on November 16, 1941, at the Bagush Airstrip.
