According to contemporary sources...
it's a classic depiction of a moral quandary - love, or the right thing?
So, wimman A hooks up with guy B because guy A, her husband, was thought to have died in a Nazi concentration camp. Turns out that guy A survived, which prompted wimman A to immediately leave guy B to get back with guy A. Ugh. So, guy B has the "power" to allow guy A to escape, because guy A is actively being sought out by the Nazis.
Apparently, wimman A still loves guy B, so guy B helps guy A escape, and wimman A plans to stay behind.
However, guy B, being the moral and rational guy, forces the wimman to escape with guy A for the greater good. If she stayed, he said, she might regret it. Thus, his actions are for the greater good.
Great show. One of them solid, classic films which all adults know about.
