'The first scene shows Captain Fryatt being presented with a gold watch, after he had rammed the German submarine. Von Whellen, the German spy, is then introduced to Capt. Fryatt by the captain's son. Mrs. Fryatt tells her husband of her dislike and fear of Von Whellen, but he takes no notice of her until Von Whellen tells him that he will "ram a submarine once too often." The sailing of the Bristol (of which Fryatt is captain) and her capture, the landing of the passengers and the imprisonment of Captain Fryatt in a cell with an old Frenchman, who tells him a story of the way in which his son and sweetheart gave themselves up for France, are events which follow in quick succession. Captain Fryatt is next seen in front of the firing-squad, where he strikes his last blow for England, and then dies bravely.'
