Now what we do is a little asset
stripping. We should clear ourselves

million. Sweet little deal.

Sounds like an incredible deal, Alfred.

Well, he figured he had everything under
control.

Kept the pressure on his boat. Had the
votes to sell.

He really did want it.

He thought he went to South France to
get away from it all.

I moved in with one of those sweet
little bonus officers. Good

evening,

sir. Thank you.

I own

75 %

of the company.

I'd say that was the bargain of a
century.

Boy, I don't know if bargains are a word
out of use, Tom.

Thank you, sir.

Thank you.

Are you

all

right?

to say goodbye to Tom Copperfield's body
in this world.

The one thing Christians have is eternal
life.

We believe that when God gives life, he
gives it forever.

And even though they are no longer with
us in a physical sense, they are here

with us at all times in the hearts and
minds of those left behind.

May God give Tom life forever.

May the perpetual light shine upon him.

And when the souls of the faithful are
parted, with the mercy of God, rest in

peace. Amen.

What do you use for bait when you're
fishing?

I don't use bait.

I use a spinner.

Oh, I only use a spinner when I'm game
fishing.

They say the man they buried this
morning worked for one of those secret

government agencies.

Yes, that's what I understand.

I hear the man they buried was a team
leader.

The best they ever had.

Except for the man who trained him,
they... They say those two are like

and son.

Yes, they were.

responsible for the death of your friend
and protege, Tom Copperfield.

No one knows his real name. He uses many
identities.

Currently, he's using the name Matthew
Drake.

From what we can find out, Drake has an
exclusive contract with a powerful

underworld leader whom we know only by
his code name, Scorpio.

Your friend Tom Copperfield was moving
in on Scorpio when he was killed.

Sooner or later, Drake will be ordered
to kill again.

Your mission, Jim.

should you decide to accept it, is to
prevent his next murder and discover the

identity of Scorpio, the man ultimately
responsible for Tom Copperfield's death.

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.

Does March on.

Nicholas Black excels in disguise,
languages, and acting. When Nicholas

working for us, he's teaching drama at
an Eastern university.

As with all selections, further
information... will be available in

Casey Randall was a top designer on
three continents when her fiancé was

in a terrorist bombing in Rome.

She helped us trap the terrorist
responsible and has worked with IMF ever

in Vietnam ended.

But when his brother didn't come home
from a POW camp, Max organized his own

mission to find him. And did.

Grant Collier.

That's right, Jim. Barney Collier's son.

And where Barney left off, his son
picked up.

Grant graduated from MIT at 16, where
one of his professors called him the

greatest inventive mind to come out of
MIT in 20 years.

to go to England.

I've since learned that his plane is due
to arrive at Heathrow Airport at 9 a

.m. on Friday and that he's booked out
under two separate names on flights

that night.

Which means if he's going to kill
someone, he has to do it within that

frame. Any idea who his target is? Not
yet.

Apparently he has to make a phone call
when he reaches London to get that

information. He's not going to make this
easy.

Drake has stayed alive by not making
things easy.

In all the murders he's been linked to,
he's never killed twice in a row in the

same fashion.

Yes, from the hallucinogenic drug he
gave Tom Copperfield to a sniper's

he always chooses something different.

And the problem is, he waits till the
last possible moment to make that

At random, that's the key.

There's a certain logic to that.

If I don't know what I'm going to do,
then neither does anybody else.

Yes, that's why we have to get close to
him, right inside his skin.

We have to know what he's going to do at
the same time he knows it himself.

Grant? Well?

I've been in contact with London, and
they're going to loan us the couple of

extra men we'll need.

That include the laser technician?

That's right.

We're looking at the kind of hotel Drake
seems to favor.

Small, but classy.

He selects these at random also.

But in this case, we're going to make
his random selection for him.

This will be the one he chooses.

Absolutely under our control, all
previous identification has been

Right now, it's a total blank.

All right, we can't afford any mistakes.

If we lose Drake, we lose our chance to
identify his boss, Scorpio.

Jim, we're not going to let that happen.

We know what this one means to you.

Thank you.

The outside camera's up, Jib. This one
will be ready in a minute. Good.

Any more on Drake's plane? It's over an
hour late.

Jim, meet Tim Connor from our London
office.

He's here helping Grant with some of our
laser work. Glad to have you aboard,

Tim. Thank you, sir. It's an honor to
work with you. An hour late.

Will that affect our plan?

Good, if he has to make his phone call
at a prearranged time. If he has to make

the call before he checks into his
hotel.

Anything, Grant?

Drake's plane will touch down in just
about three minutes.

Twenty -five minutes. That's all I'll
need once he hits his cab.

Mr. Glover, please proceed to B.

Mr. Glover.

Mr.

Glover. Mr.

Glover.

Cat, sir?

No, thank you.

Oi, I'm the first in line.

You got a ride with me?

Say, do you know where the Rayburn is?

The Rayburn?

Yeah, here.

Oh, the Rayburn Hotel in Kenton.

John.

I know where it is.

As a matter of fact, I took this nice
lady there last week. Spare me the

details. I'm in a hurry.

Please, let me get that for you. Sir,
can I take your bags? I can manage.

The Rayburn it is.

All right, you heard it. The Rayburn.

Rayburn Hotel.

16 Craven Hill.

R -A -E.

B -U -R -N.

How long is it going to take to get to
the hotel?

A bit of traffic.

20 to 25 minutes.

Phone book says 15.

I can't do it in that. I'm going to find
a cab if you can.

Hey, if any cabbie gets there in 15
minutes, I can.

15 minutes?

It's just not enough time.

We don't have a choice. We have to make
it work.

We'll never be ready at the pace he's
going.

Max will do what he can, but Drake's
insistence on being here in 15 minutes

probably means he has to make the phone
call to get his assignment.

If we slow him down too much, he's
liable to bolt.

All set, Jim.

In case you give me a level.

Mirror, mirror on the wall.

All right, you better finish off in
there.

Just another minute, Jim.

I guess I put my finger in it a bit.

But don't worry. I'll bluff my way out.

Could I see your license, sir?

One month, sir.

Thought I'd do something wrong.

You were going 20 miles over the street,
wasn't you?

20 miles?

Listen, officer, this pheromone is a bit
of a horror. You see, I picked him up

at Heathrow. Could I just see your
license, please, sir? Don't you have a

mate? Just get it over with.

I'll pay you what the ticket costs.

How's it cost?

I mean, how do you make a living these
days?

Thank you, sir.

We need the minutes, pal.

What is the holdup?

Why is he taking so long? I don't know.
Your guess is as good as mine.

I'm going to find myself another cab.

Would you have a heart?

I need the fare.

Room is set, Jim. Thanks, Casey.

I'm not going to wait much longer, you
know.

Better move, Max.

I think he'd be out catching crimps
instead of bothering honest working

Drive carefully next time, sir.

Sorry, sir.

I tried to hold him as long as I could.

We need more time, Max. Seven minutes.

All the cameras are set and the
microphone's under the front desk.

Nicholas is doing what he can. Let's
just hope Max can get to the next point

before they do.

Only the best for the Ray -Ban. Talk
about hot off the press.

Looks like they sold it.

Come on, come on.

Come on, would you move it?

Move it, will you? I told you I was on a
tight schedule.

Give me a break, will you? Do you want
me to drive through it?

Look, I got to get to a phone booth.
Either back up or I'm going to get out

here.

Blast it.

What's this now?

Can you believe this?

This is ridiculous. I'm getting out. No,
no. Hey.

I told you.

I'd get you there.

Are we ready?

We're about to find out.

I'm sorry it took a little longer than
15 minutes.

Ah, forget it.

You know, you ought to do yourself a
favor.

And keep your big mouth shut.

Good morning.

Oh, sorry. Good morning, sir.

I'd like to have a room, please. A room,
yes. We have one of the very best

available. Room 12.

I'd like to pick my own.

I beg your pardon?

I'd like to pick my own.

Uh, say, uh... How about room seven?

Room seven?

Well, yes, I do believe you're in luck.

Room seven is available.

If you just care to fill out the
register, sir.

of this gentleman to room 7, please.

7. Would you like to follow me, sir?

Enjoy your stay, sir.

Yeah, thanks.

Are you all right?

I wonder if I've been away from this too
long.

I wanted to kill him. I wanted to reach
across the counter and grab him by the

throat.

You killed your best friend, Jim.

No one's going to fault you on that
emotion.

Here we are, sir.

All set?

All right,

the trap's been set.

Let's bring it.

I'd like to pick my own room.

I'd like to pick my own room.

Sounds good. Now, I think it needs a
little more bass.

Hope you're comfortable.

If there's anything else you need, sir,
please don't hesitate to give us a call.

As long as he misses the phone in the
lobby, we're set.

I'm waiting for a friend to call.

You're late.

I nearly wasn't here.

It couldn't be helped.

Do you have something for me?

Yes. Where do we meet?

City Botanical Gardens by the river.

Be there at noon.

How will I find you?

Wear a white rose and I'll find you.

Just a little more than an hour.

If we can still catch up.

Hello?

It's me again.

Your friend from California.

What now? Decided we don't like white
roses?

Decided I didn't want to wait so long
for the information.

Look, it's the way I work.

Where then?

At my hotel, the Rayburn.

Do you know where that is?

No. It's near the corner of Long Bridge
Street and Military Road.

I'm in room 8.

I can find you.

Be here in 30 minutes.

And forget the white rose.

Let's go.

What now? Have you decided you don't
like white roses?

I think the register should be a little
higher.

What now? Have you decided you don't
like white roses?

For a guy who makes his living by
killing people, he's certainly relaxed.

That's what makes him feel good.

He's leaving early.

He's a careful man.

He probably wants to have a good look at
the botanical gardens. I'm not

mistaken. Here comes Drake's lady.

This is going to be close.

Excuse me.

Could you tell me where room 83 is, Mr.
Drake's room?

Yes, if you turn right at the top of the
first five stairs, you'll find his room

there. Thank you.

I'm looking for a friend.

From California?

It's all in there.

Oh.

Who pays off when I make the hit?

I do.

As I said, it's all in there.

Let me know when it's done.

So this is the man.

Looks like I'm elected.

William Bratton, president of a
California -based construction union,

the Crown Regent Hotel, room 526.

He'll be in his room from 4 .30 to 5 p
.m. today, working on a speech.

He'll be alone.

Well, at least we know when he's going
to make the hit and when.

Yes, and who he's going to kill.

Let's hope not.

You looking for a friend?

Depends upon where he's from.

California do.

That'll do just fine.

So you're the famous man.

You're Scorpio's messenger.

Well, I must say you're the most
attractive one I've seen so far.

You called me the famous man. Why is
that?

Your last job attracted a lot of
attention.

Rather spectacular.

That doesn't please you?

Look, I work in one of the few
businesses where fame is not something

for.

Now, the hotel where this guy's staying,
how far is it from here?

Just under a mile.

And when I'm done, who pays?

Call me.

I'll be there.

You know, being famous could have its
advantages.

You're not the girl I talked to on the
phone.

Should I take that as a compliment?

Take it any way you like.

I was planning to leave tonight, but
maybe I'll stay.

How's Bratton?

He's upset.

It's not every day you find out a
professional assassin's out to kill you.

Will he cooperate?

He's not happy about it, but he's agreed
to stay out of it until this is all

over. All right.

Now the question is, how will Drake try
to kill him?

There's quite a few rooftops out here.
Give him a clear shot.

Well, that's how he's going to make his
move.

I'll make it easy for him.

It may be too easy. We have to remember
this man is unpredictable.

There's no telling where he may come
from.

I'm going to be a couple of doors down
the hall.

I lost Drake.

All right.

Grant, we can call this off.

Not a chance, Jim.

There is no telling where or how he's
going to make the hit. This is a big

hotel. We can't cover it all.

I always like surprises.

Still no sign of him.

I'll cover the back.

Room 526, please.

Got a call.

Switching you on.

Hello.

Hello, Mr. Bratton.

Yes? My name is Lou Lawrence.

I'm with one of the local trade unions.

I was wondering if I might be able to
come up and see you for a few minutes.

What union did you say?

I'm the secretary of the Pied Pettus
Union.

Give me a big help to us, Mr. Bratton.

Okay.

What time did you want to come up?

I'll be here.

Thank you, Mr. Bratton.

Yeah.

Thank you, Mr. Bratton.

You heard it.

Fifteen minutes.

You can't be far.

Mac, anything?

No, nothing yet.

Anything, Nicholas?

Not yet, Jim.

It's got to show up soon.

Jim, Drake's just come out of the back
of the hotel.

I don't like that. He likes to set up
the job and be gone.

Rick, get out of there. Get out now.

Are you okay?

I'm all right. Are you sure? I'm okay.

Jim. Yeah, Grant seems okay.

Good.

All right, it's still working.

We're one step away from Scorpio.

Welcome home.

Well, well, well.

Step away from the door.

All right, let's settle down here.

Now, who are you?

I guess you could say I'm your
replacement.

I told you you were becoming too famous.

Scorpio doesn't like that.

Scorpio sent you?

The old company loyalty isn't what it
used to be.

I guess the proverbial gold watch looks
pretty good right now, doesn't it?

No.

No,

please.

Loyalty

I'll

teach Scorpio about loyalty

Casey. You all right?

Or someone who just got hit by a train?

Fine. Just fine?

Nice work, Casey.

Greg's on his way to Heathrow. Max is
following.

Next stop, Scorpio.

A few minutes ago.

This is where Tom Copperfield died.

Alfred Chambers lives in the penthouse.

He was supposed to be Tom Copperfield's
friend.

The preliminary investigation cleared
him of any involvement.

Maybe Matthew Drake didn't.

Police? Yeah, I don't know why.

I want you to put the heat on that
amalgamated crowd.

I want them out of the game now.

Okay.

Get back to me on it.

I'm breaking a golden rule with you.

I'm killing you the same way I killed
Copperfield.

Why?

Call it a lesson in loyalty.

What do you think I am? You think I'm
stupid?

Do you have an identity on the dead man?

Alfred Chambers.

Crazy. Three weeks ago, a guy jumped in
the penthouse. Now the guy who lives

there takes a dive after getting some
other guy with a knife.

That's all.

It's over.

Tom Copperfield's job is finished.

You was a good friend.

What do you do now, Jim?

Well, I think I'll have to stay.

It'd be a shame to break up a nice team
like this, wouldn't it?

Mission Impossible will be right back.
