All language subtitles for Mission Impossible s02e10 For Arts Sake

oh

New York, Minister.

Is it done?

Eight day time tomorrow, all right?
Thank you.

I guess it's a long, hard road from
beginner to prima ballerina.

Long and painful.

But for those who make it, it has its
rewards.

Like premier dance suits at Covent
Garden?

Or corps de ballet at Lincoln Center.

Our season's programs are on the piano.

Good morning, Jim.

Two nights ago, a priceless painting on
loan to the Manhattan Museum of Art was

stolen and a guard murdered in the
process.

The painting taken was a national
treasure of San Marcos, a state in

America. It depicts their patron saint
and has religious and patriotic

associations of vast importance to them.
The loss of the painting will be seen

as a catastrophe for which the United
States will be held to blame.

The man we believe devised the whole
plan is the Minister for Culture, which

really means propaganda.

His name is Rafael Ocha. He is ambitious
to gain more power.

The theft itself could be the work of
this man, Daniel Travers.

It seems that what Travers can't buy, he
steals. We suspect he financed his way

into the hotel business by stealing and
dealing art to the underground market.

Your mission, Jim, should you decide to
accept it.

is to find the stolen Montoya painting.
Thus preserve the good name of the

United States among the people of San
Marcos.

Bring Daniel Travers to justice and
restore to the world the masterpieces he

stolen over the years.

As always, should you or any of your I
.M. force be caught or killed, the

Secretary will disavow any knowledge of
your actions.

This disc will self -destruct in five
seconds.

Good luck, Jim.

Daniel Travers was in San Marco last
month coordinating the exhibition on

of the Manhattan Museum of Art. He's a
member of the board. But he's building

a private collection. He stole them out.

Well, we have the blueprints to his
hotel. He lives in the penthouse. Maybe

has the painting hidden there.

Yeah, we'll try that first when the
coast is clear.

Brad, how's your simulator coming?
Nearly there. You know, all need is a

subject. Well, Travers will have a
favorite artist.

Collectors always do.

My job to find out.

Ready to make contact?

Yes, the auction's in an hour. The house
is reserved to see for Travers, as well

as me and one of my wealthy investors.

Yes, well, I've hired Shannon to advise
me and bid for me.

I don't intend on spending a dollar of
anyone's money.

We want to leave Mr. Travers thinking
you're in the same game he is, dealing

stolen art.

Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen.

Thank you for being here this afternoon
down near auction rooms.

We begin with this magnificent example
of post -impressionism.

I refer you to the catalog for the
prominence of this Picasso landscape,

has been in the owner's family since
purchase from the artist himself.

The winning bidder will also acquire the
original bill of sale.

Comes into the line.

Can't get any higher without his
personal card.

I can fly past this. We don't have time.

Sometimes the old way is the quickest.

What are you standing around for?

All right, let's roll.

We're in.

Good. Nicholas reports they've just
opened the bidding on the painting

wants. He'll head straight back, so
he'll have to move fast.

Two million two. Two million two hundred
thousand dollars for Mr. Rubenstein.

Going what?

Two million three. Two million three for
Mr. Travers in row two.

Two million three.

Yes, Miss Novak?

Three million.

Three million. The bid now stands at
three million.

Three million two.

Three million two for Mr. Travers. Three
million two is the current bid for this

fine example of late post
-impressionism.

Three million five hundred thousand.

Three million five.

The current bid is three million five.

Any advance on three million five?

Going one.

Going twice.

Three million eight.

Three million eight for Mr. Travers.

Any advance on three million eight?

Going one?

Going one.

So, for $3 ,800 ,000, thank you.

Congratulations.

Very well done, Daniel.

She's working for you. I just paid way
too much.

Ms. Novak is a genuine bidder, I can
assure you.

Showed me a letter of credit yesterday.

Jacks for a bunch of businessmen.

Philistines.

Investing purely for the money.

The fellow she's with is one.

She just cost me $600 ,000.

But I like those eyes.

Nothing in this safe that looks like a
painting.

Maybe he sold them.

I'll download the memory in his fax
machine.

See who he's been dealing with lately.

Jim, we're coming up empty.

For a guy like us, it doesn't keep much
around here at all. And he'll have

plenty hidden somewhere, somewhere else.
Look, we bugged his office.

I'll send you whatever we have in the
memory of his fax machine.

Standing by.

Hello, Mr. Travers.

Mr. Peter, you were here today.

My client really wanted that painting.

So did I.

Maybe we can do business together.

Business?

I'd rather we talked pleasure.

The clients that I represent, they're
not just interested in what's out there

the market.

They're also interested in what's not
out there.

I don't think I follow.

I think you do.

I have a hunch that you wouldn't
disappoint me on a treasure hunt.

That would all depend on what we're
looking for.

A Montoya.

Montoya doesn't interest me.

Come on now, Mr. Travers.

You're on the board of the Manhattan
Museum of Art.

Of course you're interested.

You've just lost the most famous Montoya
of them all.

I expect that we'll meet again.

Any luck?

We found a coded message from San Marcos
in his fax machine.

I think we've just cracked it.

From President Ibarra, no less.

Minister Ochoa returning to New York for
urgent meeting with you before launch

of media campaign tomorrow.

Imperative you honor our deal as
originally stated.

Honor among thieves.

Never has been.

Maybe this will give us something to
work with.

It sounds like Travis isn't content with
his end of the bargain, and he's

threatening to break it. It sounds like
he's holding all the cards.

So far, he is. But we will be at
Minister Roach's press conference

Ladies and gentlemen,

on behalf of the city of New York, and
indeed the entire United States,

The board of this museum deeply regrets
the information you're about to hear

concerning a theft of a very valuable
painting on loan to us from the people

San Marcos.

I give you their Minister of Culture,
the esteemed Rafael Ocha.

Ladies and gentlemen, my country has
lost... its most treasured possession

due to the arrogant disregard.

You're not here to admire our
impressionists, are you?

Yes, I am.

After that auction, don't say that we
share the same taste.

There are only two... Two works in here
that I truly admire. If I had my way,

this museum would sell off all the rest
of them to buy more.

Like these.

The one artist who brought every aspect
of Impressionism under masterful

control. Daring composition.

A wonderful eye for color.

Degas.

What genius.

I know the whereabouts of a missing
Degas.

If you're interested.

There isn't a Degas on or off the market
that I don't know about. I pay very

qualified people to keep me informed of
such things.

I wasn't referring to a known Degas.

I was referring to an unknown Degas.

Obviously, your qualified people aren't
doing their homework.

That's nonsense.

If you don't believe in my Degas, that's
your loss.

I think you want it.

Let's talk about it right now.

I won't eat.

So here's what I propose.

I get five miles of your Gold Coast and
exclusive rights to build and operate a

hotel casino.

Tax free.

Or the painting reappears and you lose
all your propaganda against the United

States.

This is an outrage.

No.

business. And remember, you can't afford
to expose me without ruining your own

reputations.

Relax, we have the perfect arrangement.

I'll have to discuss this with President
Ibarra.

Of course.

Adios, amigo.

What's your game, Angel?

I'd like to know.

Jim, Trevor says Shannon under the
knife. I'd better jump in. Max, no. Stay

clear.

We have to hold our cover, and Shannon
knows that.

Now, who are you?

I told you I'm a dealer in fine art.

Some stolen, some not.

You get the picture?

You're a fence.

I'm an exceptional fence.

Well, if you are who you say you are,
you might just get to live.

And the test will be your missing Degas.
I want to see it.

That'll take some arranging. I'm sure
we'll do it together at my place.

Travis is taking her back to his
penthouse.

Jim, he wants to see the Degas.

Janet's done her part. Now it's up to
us. Get back here as fast as you can

the photographs.

Max's close -ups will give us more fine
detail.

Paint, texture, brush strokes.

We'll feed everything we've got on Degas
into the computer.

It then assimilates all the elements of
the artist's technique.

Subject, color choice, brush stroke,
line depth, etc.

From there, the simulator takes over and
gives us, hopefully, our lost Degas.

Well, even better.

Otherwise, we won't get any closer to
his hidden gallery.

Worse than that, it could cost Shannon
her life.

I don't think much of your hospitality.

You haven't earned it yet.

First, a call, then a drink.

Hello. This is your agent.

Well, this is not the best time.

I know. I'm sorry.

I'm here with a friend.

He's a patron of the arts.

He's particularly interested in dancers.

I believe you can help him find one.

One dancer does come to mind. Could he
see it today?

That's rather short notice.

It's rather urgent.

Where and when?

Central Park, by the lake.

About noon.

Central Park by the lake at noon?

Uh... No, not noon. Make it five o
'clock.

Five o 'clock?

Good.

We'll expect you then.

All right.

Well done.

Now, what may I get you?

Scotch.

Neat.

A hundred -year -old canvas.

You sure that penny we scraped off
wasn't worth anything?

Not at the price we paid.

You all set?

The making of a masterpiece.

It's now or never, guys.

What do you think?

I'd buy.

Remarkable.

But it's not what we think that counts.

Daniel Travers, Philip Grenier.

You have the Degas?

Of course.

I'd like to see it.

Right here?

I'm curious to know if there's any point
to this exercise.

And I likewise. Are you prepared to pay
my price?

I'm not about to show my discovery to
somebody who's simply curious.

I'll know what it's worth if it's
genuine and pay accordingly.

Show him the painting, Philip.

Trevor, you were about to view $18
million.

Satisfied?

My God.

Now, who are we trusting? Your valuer
has to be not only expert, he has to be

discreet.

Uh, Brian Danmier.

He's paid to keep secrets.

Your agent knows him already.

He'll be fine.

Certainly belongs to the cracked era.

No doubt about that.

Brush stroke technique and color mix is
infallible.

This is Dagar's genius at work here,
Daniel.

I think your search is finally over.

I think you're right, Brian.

Now, Mr. Grenier and I have some
negotiating to do.

Well, I've told you the price. Eighteen
million dollars.

Non -negotiable.

That's far ahead of market value.

Then we'll wait for the market to catch
up with it.

Good day, gentlemen.

Grabs, the expert called it the work of
the genius. You must be the

reincarnation of Degas.

Whoa, we gotta give some credit to my
simulator here.

So, uh...

Travers went for it, eh?

He went for it, all right.

I'm certain he'd kill for it.

Are you there?

Daniel.

I'm afraid the day God's going to a new
home, Angel.

But trust me.

It won't go unappreciated.

You snake.

You left me no room to negotiate.

Shannon? Shannon?

You're okay.

Yeah.

I had myself pretty much covered.

And with this under the water, too.

Just in case he wasn't fooled.

Shannon's fine.

Is the bug in the painting working?

Yep. He's heading down East 54th Street.

Heading towards his hotel.

Good. Nicholas is in position.

He's going down.

Repeat, down.

I'll join you in the underground garage.

You've got to be close to the answer
here.

God's history is hitting you.

Where'd he go?

The bug's been blocked.

So,

it didn't work out last night. We'll try
a different approach.

How is Minister Ocha this morning?

I'd say he's looking good.

Minister Oates is wearing a black and
white outfit today.

I'll fact you a reference shot.

I have discussed the situation with
President Ybarra, and he agrees to your

terms. and looks forward to a new Travis
resort in San Marcos.

That's wonderful.

However, he does insist that you now
give me the Montoya painting for

Well, I'm glad he understands the risk
of leaving it in my hands. I could

careless. You continue to threaten us,
senor.

If the American government were to
recover the painting, the people of San

Marcos would love us for it. and your
propaganda campaign would turn to ashes.

What I need is a document from your
president.

Right. Let's go.

Two police officers to see you, sir.

Show them in.

Thank you for seeing us, Minister Ocha.
I'm Captain Pierce, New York Police.

This is Inspector Wilson Interpol. Well,

what can I do for you?

We're pleased to report that we found
the Montoya painting that was stolen

earlier this week.

You found it?

What do you mean, you found it?

Well, we've been tracking a
multinational ring of thieves, forgers,

smugglers for some time now.

Yes, it was included in a shipment bound
for Japan.

The Japanese mafia.

They've been buying a lot of high
-priced solenade recently.

Si.

Well, we know how important the painting
is to the Republic of San Marcos. We've

just wanted to let you know officially
that it's on its way back to our

Manhattan Museum of Art.

That is indeed good news.

Thank you, senor. Thank you, thank you.
Thank you.

Thank you, senor.

Get me Senor Travis.

Underlay.

This is your hot dog, Captain.

I'm afraid I haven't time right now.

You play me for a fool.

The Montoya painting has been found.

Interpol is returning it to the museum
as we speak.

That's impossible. I've got the Montoya.

You have nothing.

And Senor, consider your land grant
cancelled.

Now, you hold on just a minute. I'm
telling you that whatever you've got

back to the exhibition is a forgery.

Oh, really?

You want proof? Just get over here right
now and I'll show you the real one.

I've had enough of your games.

Minister Ocha, wake up.

At this point, you cannot afford to try
to second -guess me.

Park into U -Bike.

Sasha? Happy?

I'm sorry.

Are you okay?

Oh, you bad girl.

Hey, are you all right?

Stupid woman.

Are you all right, sir?

You must learn to trust me.

You are about to become the very first
Official visitor.

My private gallery.

After you, Minister.

Santa Maria.

Yes. It's a visual banquet, isn't it? I
built this hotel on the site of an old

bank.

Retain this interesting little hideaway.

Suits me down to the ground.

Monet.

Van Gogh.

My God.

Is this a Degas?

Yes, it is.

It's my most recent acquisition.

And as far as I'm concerned, the jewel
of my collection.

This way, Minister.

I designed this security system to keep
people like myself out.

There you see it.

The real Montoya.

So I take the painting now. You'll blow
yourself to pieces if you do.

But you have your grant of land.

No, I don't. I just have your word on
that. I told you I need a document

and sealed.

You give me that and I'll give you the
Montoya to do with as you will.

Palm print identifier?

Sensor detonation?

Quite a minefield.

And here are shots of every other
painting down there.

Worth millions.

But there's no sprinkler system.

No sprinkler system. That's interesting.

And officially, his secret basement
doesn't exist.

So it's not included in the hotel's fire
control measures.

Well, I saw smoke detectors down there,
but only handheld extinguishers.

Well, there'll be a private alarm among
the others we saw in his penthouse.

That could be the chink in his armor.

That could be the Achilles heel.

Grant, could you duplicate those other
paintings he has?

These photos?

Yes.

Yeah? But they won't be fit for any
close inspection.

It's not important. We'll have Travers
moving too fast.

Go to it. You got it.

Jim, how long do you want to keep the
minister under wraps?

Oh, until we need him.

We're going to force Mr. Travers to hand
over the Montoya to the real minister

this time.

Store solid steel.

No wonder we lost contact with our bug.

All right, time to catch Mr. Travers on
his own home ground.

Yes?

This is Raphael Orchard.

Ah, yes, I take it you've spoken with
President Ybarra about my

final proposal?

Yes, I was not pleased.

Well, they should be. It's a bargain.

Yes, well, we agree with the terms.

In return for the Montoya painting.

With pleasure. Just bring the papers to
my penthouse and we'll sign.

Stay here and monitor the bug at Travers
Penthouse. The moment you hear the

minister's voice, give me a call. Then
come and join us.

You remember me? I'm Captain Pierce.

You had a bit of an accident, fell down
on the pavement, hit your head.

We're taking you to the hospital.

No, no, I've got an appointment, an
urgent appointment. I must get to the

Hotel. That was kind of a nasty fall you
had.

Do as I say.

Well, if you insist.

Okay, leave it to New York's finest.

Bye, Minister.

I hope you've enjoyed New York
hospitality.

Let's go underground.

All right, Jim, we're just about ready.

Okay, Grant.

Minister Ochi is on his way.

Let's see the papers.

No, no.

First you must show me the real Montoya.

What? We've been through all that. What
are you talking about?

Jim, now.

Get it, Grant.

Fire!

There's a fire in the gallery! My
painting!

Why, thank God!

I paid him!

Help me grab something!

Don't dare to help me! You'll get my
Montoya!

Later, help me!

Our deal is gone. And so is your Degas.

Unless you get me the Montoya now.

Comprete? We're through negotiating,
senor.

Okay. Okay.

Okay.

Brad,

what's our status?

Set the boat now, Jim.

Here, the Montoya.

Give me my taker.

That's a lot of trouble, but a piece of
rubbish.

What are you doing?

I did not want the painting, senor.

I have what I wanted, to make sure its
loss is blamed on the American.

And now that it's destroyed, I don't
need your help.

So you can say adios, your stretch of
our beach.

Our deal is off, senor.

Adios, minister!

Nobody

double

-crosses me.

You're glad to see me, Daniel.

You should have had more respect for a
genuine work of art.

Oh my God.

You'll find Daniel Travers in the
basement. Make certain he's booked for

one. We'll do, Captain.

Now, get the Montoya back to the museum.

A masterpiece like this is a little too
hot to handle.

Mission Impossible will be right back.
