The montage of an unsmiling Frenchman attempting to weed out Nazi infiltrators by quizzing his charges on American culture is my favorite scene of the episode because, as near as I can tell, the thing “Bob” does to give himself away as a Nazi and earn himself a bullet to the face is to sing “The Star-Spangled Banner” much more enthusiastically than the two American flyboys, and with a greater command of the lyrics. Sergeant Bailey, who’d proved his Yankee credentials by knowing which baseball teams Babe Ruth played for, protests that he’d talked to this man for an hour. His French protectors must be mistaken! “We don’t make mistakes, ” one of them says, helping himself to the cigarette lighter of the man he’s just killed, who was almost certainly a Nazi spy, probably. Unless he wasn’t.

For what it’s worth, Bob’s last word was No! Instead of Nein!, but maybe he was just committed to his role. In a show full of millennial Brits and Irishmen doing their damndest to sound like Americans born roughly a century ago, I also wondered if Bob didn’t arouse his captors’ suspicion by over-egging his accent and dialect work: “Y’all sure musta kicked the hornet’s nest, ” he tells Bailey. “They come at us with a fury like I ain’t never seen!” Uh-huh. And you know all the words to “The Star-Spangled Banner, ” too? Not Great, Bob! If that is your real name! (Vulture)

"What about the other guy that you shot? "

"He was probably American, but he wrote the date as YYYY-MM-DD, and I can't stand CompSci majors..."

[Karraso]

Nah, it wasn't the singing. It was how he wrote the date on the paper they gave him in the interview. For americans is month-day-year, he wrote in the european fashion of day-month-year, therefore proving he wasn't american

[screenlantern]

You missed it when the asked to write down the date since that was the clue of who was a spy

[Elcore]

"We asked him to point to Europe on the map and he got it in less than three tries."

[null-xfpd]

He had an IMCO lighter, Austrian design. Sold mostly in Europe

[Whatidavail]

I love how everyone at that part of the song just goes " neh nuh nuh neh"

[foxalivetellem]

Note to self - if im every captured, do not enthusiasticly turn up to the star-spangled banner while knowing every word. Makes you look sus af lol

[Treblaine]

"Howdy, I sure am parched, I could swill back 1.000 milliliters of good ole fashioned bud light right now. Boy, do I love small fuel efficient cars and recycling."

[BangSkankin]

Another detail, “bobs” lighter is a imco-triplex junior, an Austrian made lighter, my great grandfather took one off a nazis body during wwii

[jordanwarren]

Bob’s accent changes. Listen to how he says star spangled banner vs how he sings. It’s like a mix of New York City and Texan drawl. Very subtle, but noticeable

[ikigai]

What do you eat at baseball games?
_Why, das Würstchen of course. WAIT! I MEAN HOT DOG! HOT DOG! NOOO!_

[worldofdoom]

one note to consider is that the star spangled banner was only officially our anthem starting in 1931. While it was a common patrotic anthem for decades.

[Kalbot]

All these people arguing different points when it was clearly the combination of the singing, the lighter and the date writing all together. Hence him saying "we don't make mistakes" Any one of those three things could have a reasonable explanation but when they all appear together...

[lordinquisitorstefanauster]

In rooting out spies, you don't look at just one factor. You people arguing which is right are all actually right. It is a combination of factors that you look at. The lighter is actually the final straw that the French were looking for.

[smgilmore]

The lighter is an Austrian lighter it wouldn’t have been available to an American

[mfree]

"Can you sing it?"
"No."
"What kind of American are you?"
"the kind that can't sing."

[noodlebowls]

Another thing to note was his lighter. It’s Austrian. How the hell was American pilot supposed to pick one up? Certainly not off from the frontlines. Though, they already were going to kill him by that point.

[unowno]

"Yeah i learned to write my date in european because i was serving on the european front."
"Nu uh, yankees cant adapt, hes the spy!"

[ZachariahtheMessiah]

They could have just asked him to order three beers
