The French government arrested Chanel, who had several ties with Nazi intelligence organization Abwehr and its members.

DE-DE-DE-DE-DE-DE DE-DE-DE-DE! I tell you, I got the hell out of there real quick. The next day I told the MGM Security Office about it, and they called the FBI or something, and sure enough, they found an underground Japanese radio station.
