Overview : A shipment of gold stolen by the Germans from the Bank of France is being stored at a local bank. Hogan persuades Klink to have the gold bars moved to Stalag 13 for safekeeping. The men tamper with the stairs leading to Klink's office. When the steps collapse, Hogan offers to rebuild them using brick. The POW's steal the gold bars from the delivery truck. They dip the bars into red paint, and the bricks into gold paint. The gold-painted bricks are placed on the truck and the phony 'bricks' are used to build Klink's new steps, which Hogan proclaims are 'good as gold'.
