Hello? Yes?

I was just taking a shower. Can't it wait till the morning?

Yes. I think I found out what you want to know.

Bob became quite confidential.

But we'd better not discuss it on the phone.

I'll meet you in the morning.

All right?

Goodbye.

Mr. Steed. Yes.

I'm sorry to keep you waiting.

That's all right.

Come in.

Excellency, this is Mr. Steed.

To what do I owe the pleasure?

The British are naturally very anxious about your security while you are here

London. That's very decent of them. Not at all.

Not long ago, your newspapers were calling me the Balkan bandit.

It's pleasant to see you are now concerned about my welfare.

Well, we have an obligation to look after you while you're on British

This embassy is Balkan territory, even though it is in the royal borough of

Kensington. Mr. Steed is particularly concerned about the death of a young

Yes, so am I.

She was a very attractive girl.

Your ambassador tells me that she was your private secretary.

My ambassador is becoming an expert at Western diplomacy.

She was staying here, I believe. Yes, she had one of their residential flats

upstairs. That's where the accident occurred. You're quite sure it was an

accident?

I was given to understand that she slipped as she was getting out of the

and broke her neck.

Isn't that what happens, Stepan? That is what we assume happened, Excellency.

Then I don't think there is any cause for alarm.

I shouldn't like a similar accident to happen to you. Thank you. I am very well

protected.

I shall use my ambassador here as a demonstration.

Stepan. Reach into your pocket for your wallet. I'm sure he does not need

convincing. Do as I say, sir.

Frank!

And Stepan here is my brother -in -law.

My watchdogs arrived this morning, and while I'm here, they will guard me night

and day.

Won't they, Stepan?

Mr. Steed, I hope His Excellency does not give the impression we are not

to cooperate on the question of security.

Whether you're anxious or not, I must give him maximum security in this

I will cooperate with him as much as I can.

But His Excellency is a difficult person to protect.

Mr. Baird, before I forget, get me another private secretary.

You know my requirements.

Your duties as ambassador seem to be rather varied.

Yes, they are.

You've got me in your clutches and I can't get free You're getting to be

a habit with me

Every

kiss, every hug seems to act just like a drug You're

getting to be a habit with me.

Let me stay in your arms. I'm addicted to your charms. You're getting to be

a habit with me.

I used to think your love was something that I could take or

leave alone.

But now I couldn't do without my supply. I need you.

For my own, I can't break away. I must have you every day

as regularly as coffee or tea.

You've got me in your clutches and I can't get

free.

What can I...

Have a word with you?

Yes.

How are you? I'm fine.

Good.

Do you fancy a tour?

That's very kind of you. No, I mean a singing tour.

Serious? All the main hall.

Really? What's the billing?

Solo. Where?

The Balkans. The Balkans? Huh. Who's promoting it? You? Oh, Jakob Borg.

Sounds like a big poem.

By arrangement.

When would he want me to start this tour?

As soon as you can talk him into it.

Oh, charming. Thank you. Hey, no.

Wait a minute. It's not like that. No? Well, if it's on the level, you have a

word with my agent. Well, there are reasons I can't do that. Yes, I'll bet

are. Now, Bob's a very important man. International reputation.

You might say, member of the international set. Such as who?

Had lunch with the Prime Minister last week. A few months ago, entertained at

the White House. Christmas in the Kremlin.

Well, how come he's interested in me?

He's not at the moment.

Oh, great.

I can affect an introduction. The rest is up to you. Where's that young lady?

Do I get a proper contract?

Of course, but don't rush it. We may not know if he likes you, yeah?

Oh, by the way, he's the minister for film production. Last year, one of his

country's pictures won a Venice Award.

I don't want to rush you.

I'm sure that Bob will have no trouble in finding talent.

My dear, you look more beautiful than ever. Thank you, and keep the change.

Well, I suppose there's no harm in seeing the man. I'll arrange it for

morning. How's that?

That's very sweet. No, I mean, how about tomorrow morning?

All right.

Oh, good.

The Balfour Embassy, Kensington Centre.

Yeah, just a minute. What am I supposed to do for this Balfour character?

I mean, what numbers go down in the Balfour spokeshouse?

He'll tell you what he wants. Just chat him up a bit. You know how to do that.

And don't mention my name. As if I would. Anything else?

Yeah, you better not mention business at first. Encourage him to talk, you know.

And let me know all the details.

Yes, and don't tell me.

You'll be in touch.

Yes.

Good night, my dear.

Excellency, you have not forgotten you have a conference this morning. I don't

have to leave for another ten minutes. I know, Excellency. I only wanted to make

sure that you and your delegation were not late.

If you mean these two apes, they'll be ready when they finish their morning

exercise. Break!

Excellency, I must find out that the embassy apartments are hardly the place

this type of display.

It is I who decides what the embassy will be used for. Now get out!

Anything else you want, Ambassador?

Yes, Excellency. There is a young lady who has called her Miss Venus Smith.

Good.

Bring her in.

Thank you, Ambassador.

I'm sorry. I seem to have come at late hour.

Oh, please don't mind me. They're just my bodyguards.

I don't see how they can do much bodyguarding in that position.

Oh, you'd be surprised how quickly they can win if they try.

Who won?

No one wins.

It's just a friendly bout.

This, actually, is the champion.

Georgie. Hi, Georgie.

I want Georgie to wrestle over here in England.

I'm trying to arrange a bout for him with one of your champions. Perhaps the

butcher of Islington.

It will help to promote good relations between our two countries, don't you

think? Oh, yes, I'm sure it'll do just that, yes.

All right, boys, get dressed.

Do you notice they only get dressed one at a time?

Are they shy?

No, just obedient.

Their instructions are that I must not be left without a guard even for one

moment. Wouldn't it be cheaper to get a dog?

I'm inclined to agree with you, but my ambassador doesn't think so.

Please let me take your coat.

Thank you.

I see you have no hidden weapons.

What a nice place you've got here.

Please make yourself comfortable. Would you like a drink? Oh, no, thank you. Not

before an audition.

It affects my breathing.

I beg your pardon?

Perhaps you don't want to hear me sing at this stage.

Hear you sing?

Why, yes, of course I would love to hear you sing at any time. Well, I wasn't

sure. I didn't bring my pianist.

You didn't? No, but I've got him on short call. I wouldn't bother.

I wouldn't bother.

If you like, we'll just sit and talk.

Okay, that suits me.

Well, I suppose you want to know something about my experience.

I think that will be most exciting.

Well... I'm sorry to interrupt, Excellency, but you will be late for the

conference. All right, I'm coming.

I'm terribly sorry, Miss... Smith.

Oh, that's quite all right. Don't let me hold you up.

Please regard this suite as your own while I'm away.

It's very nice of you, but I ought to be running along anyway. I've got some

shopping to do. If you care to give your shopping list to your chauffeur, he'll

see that it is out for you. My chauffeur? Since when did I have a

You'll use one of mine and an embassy limousine for the duration of your

contract. You mean I'm engaged?

Yes, I think so.

Please ring if you want anything.

Your attention, please. The conference will be resumed in ten minutes.

An

excellent

conference, don't you think, Mr. Steed?

Yes, it's gone, Mr. Scott.

I must say, nothing seems to worry you. He's the most fearless man I've ever

met. You know, everywhere in the world, wherever he goes, he's in danger of

assassination. No one trusts him.

This very morning he has been there negotiating a hundred million pounds

of economic aid from the West in exchange for a few of our naval bases.

If even now your foreign office suspects that in a year's time you will offer

the same bases to another power for another hundred million.

Will he?

Will he? They have no alternative.

If we are to remain neutral, we must be fair to both sides. Quite a problem,

isn't it?

International blackmail, that's a dangerous thing.

Blackmail, Mr. Steed, we are offered the aid.

You could always refuse. Yeah, Gabor would never refuse money.

No. That is not for us to judge.

We merely have to see that nobody thinks it would be cheaper to get rid of his

excellency.

After all, for all anyone knows, you might be his intended assassin.

Oh, you?

The afternoon session of the conference is now being... Oh, by the way, did you

get him a new private secretary?

Yes, someone came who seems to be suitable. She's at the embassy now.

Good.

I hope she's enjoying herself.

Oh, good. Now perhaps we can get somewhere. Look, would you mind telling

boss I want to see him here now, understand?

Well, now, look. Give him a message. I want to get out of here. I've got things

to do. I don't care about the job. Look.

Do... Oh, go away.

Hello.

Oh, it's you at last.

How's it going? How's it going? What is this, a white slave kick or something?

They've got me locked up in here. They've even got a goon outside the

no, it's your imagination.

Imagination? Look, I'd have smashed a window and jumped out, except that it's

four stories high.

Now, keep calm. Keep calm? Look, if I finish up in a harem, I'm going to sue

for every penny you've got. And another thing.

Haven't they got any baths in this place?

Baths? What do you mean, baths? He rang me up half an hour ago and said he wants

me to go to the public baths with him tonight.

Public baths? Well, what public baths? Oh, East Paddington. Oh, well, East

Paddington. Now, you go along like a good little girl and I'll be right

you. Bye. Yeah, but look, if he turns out to be a... What

do you want now? A biscuit?

Hey, you're sitting on my coat.

Oh, I'm quite sorry.

It's a beautiful one, too, I mean.

Oh, I've got your broker.

It's not really my day, am I?

Oh, thank you.

Here we go.

Oh, God, that is so... Oh, thanks.

Sorry.

You can buy one for sixpence, you know. I think they ought to be free. You what?

There aren't any left.

Oh, yeah.

Oh, well, it's all right. You can have it.

Can I really thank you? They're probably all wrong. They usually are.

Really?

Thank

you,

ma 'am.

Hi, hello.

Hello. Oh, it's you.

Well, I'm glad somebody got in.

Well, is that your seat?

That one, yes.

Where is he? Oh, I don't know. He and one of his goons went separately by

He insisted I came in his car. I don't know why. Yes, here's the girl. Look,

might. I'm having a conversation. Do you mind?

Oh, now, look here. You can't treat a young... Excuse me, mate. Might you wait

here, mate?

Fingers like a long...

Please have gone. He got away.

There must have been a car waiting for him and got into a taxi. If you don't

mind my asking, Mr... Steve.

What is your interest, anyway?

My interest was in the other one. The Vulcan boy.

You are his manager? More or less.

I'm very sorry about your boy.

He shouldn't have done that. I'd never known that they could behave like that.

just don't know why he did it.

Perhaps Mrs... His real name was Ramson. Perhaps Mrs. Ramson can help us. I

don't know where he is, and that's the gospel truth. Does he often lose his

temper? Lose his temper?

Harry was as gentle as the lamb.

Do many of your boys practice judo? Judo?

The death chop is no part of judo.

It comes from what we call karate.

The ancient samurai art of killing.

Well, that blow is illegal, isn't it? Even in Japan.

Yes. So your Harry knew what he was doing when he killed Giorgio. My Harry

practiced judo.

Never seen him like that before.

I don't get what either of you say. Don't believe you deliberately kill

Why not to worry, Mrs. Ram... Yes, I'm coming. Mrs. Ramson, if Harry turns up

here, I will look after him. Excuse me.

Harry, let me know.

You can trust me.

What do you want with him?

I think I can help him.

You can get me via this club. If I'm not there, ask for a Miss Venus Smith. Mr.

Steele? Okay.

Come in.

Well?

Venus, how nice to see you again.

I've been trying to find you all day.

Then, of course, I remembered you said you were working in a club. I got the

message. And where have you been all day? Where have I been?

What happened to you last night?

You asked me to meet you at this bear pit place and then you don't show up.

I really am very, very sorry. You do know what happened, I suppose?

To Georgie, yes.

It must have been a fantastic fight.

Just how many bodyguards do you get through in a week?

Believe me, I am very sorry for Georgie. Oh, yes, I can see that.

It's difficult to explain.

Oh, come now, Venus. Let's talk about more pleasant things.

I have a surprise for you.

You want me to fight the butcher of Islington?

No, no. I have a present for you.

I had them flown in this morning from my own nursery. It's especially for you.

But they're beautiful.

I thought you'd like them.

Perhaps you'd better save them for poor old George's funeral.

Oh, there are plenty more. Please accept them.

All right.

How am I going to get them home?

I shall have them taken straight to your flat.

Upstairs.

What flat upstairs?

I think it will be much more convenient if you lived in the embassy, don't you

think? Really, I only live a bus ride away. Thank you all the same.

I take it he does double duty now?

Yes, for a few days until my ambassador replaces Georgie. Please sit down.

Would you like a drink?

Oh, no, thank you. My breathing.

Oh, yes, of course, you see.

That's right.

I must come down to your club and hear you some evening.

Come tonight, if you like. I should love to.

Perhaps you would allow me to take you out to dinner, first of all. And be

up again?

What happened last night?

I'm afraid you might find it a bit difficult to believe.

You can always try.

I've heard most excuses.

Well, I had a warning at the last moment that something was going to happen at

the baths. What sort of warning? Well, just a voice on the telephone that told

me to keep away and then rung off.

Then why didn't you warn Georgie to stay away as well?

There was no time.

In any case, I didn't think he was in any danger.

But the interesting thing is that apart from Ito, the wrestling promoter, only

my two bodyguards and yourself knew I was going to the baths last night.

They don't speak English, and that only leaves you.

Leaves me to what?

To tell someone I was going to the baths last night.

Did you?

I don't think so.

But if I did, I didn't know there was any harm in it.

Well, now, you see how careful one has to be.

What time is your show this evening?

Oh, not till 11.

Well, I suggest we go and find a nice, quiet restaurant and enjoy ourselves.

What do you say?

Only if you're quite sure it's safe to go out.

I'm quite sure no one would want to harm you.

In any case, we still have one faithful watchdog left.

According to the pathologist's report on Gheorghe, His neck injuries were almost

exactly the same as those found on that girl, the one who slipped in the shower.

Oh, yes?

So I think it's safe to assume that the same person killed them both.

I'd already assumed that.

Oh.

I'll tell you, it was that poor girl phoning just before she was killed.

How do you know she was phoning anyone?

After you left, I took the liberty of having a look around the embassy.

There were traces of soap on the telephone.

So then you checked the switchboard.

Yeah. There were no external calls at that time, so it must have been internal

and didn't come through the switchboard.

Difficult to trace.

Hmm.

This will go another way. There was first a girl, then a bodyguard, but no

said a girl at all. What are they trying to do? Isolate him so he's easier to

assassinate? Maybe just a warning.

A warning? To force him to walk out of the conference.

Hmm. Either way, it'll be all the same to Bob.

We'll just amuse him.

Oh, he's got a heightened sense of fun. That has only come in recent years.

Until then, he was a dedicated revolutionary with a fine sense of

responsibility. But power corrupts.

Absolute power, yes.

What's this obsession with wrestling, eh?

Once when he was in jail, that was before we came to power, he shared the

with a wrestler and became an aficionado, and he's kept it up ever

Calling Mr. Speed.

Calling Mr. Speed.

Mr. Speed is wanted on the telephone. I must go back to the embassy myself.

Wipe my telephone.

Hello, Steve.

Oh, there you are.

Look, I thought you promised to stick around.

Why, what's the matter?

Nothing's the matter yet. It's just that whenever I go out with Bob, I'm

nervous. Bob?

Where is he? He's here with me in the club.

Oh, he's laughing, boy. Look, I've got to get back.

You'd better get down here.

Someone wants to talk to you. Who is it?

A friend of yours.

Female.

Come on, boy. Here.

Thank you, sir.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Oh, hello.

You all right?

All right.

Good. Was it you who wanted to see me?

Come in here.

It's around the back.

I say, folks, what time does the cabaret start?

One o 'clock, sir.

Oh, good show. I thought we might have missed it.

No one new here, aren't you?

Yes, sir.

I'm Harry Rumston.

The deck -up. Ah, Edna said you wanted to see me. Yeah, why don't you do

something for me?

Do what?

How much did Eto pay you to kill the balkan?

What are you talking about? I pay you double to do the same thing for me.

To... Yes, to kill somebody.

Put him down, Harry.

I told you you can trust him. He never killed anyone. He couldn't. He wasn't

even there last night. Shut up. That's what I thought.

If it wasn't you, who was it? Go on, tell him, Harry.

I don't know.

I never saw a bloke. I was just told to keep my mouth shut and keep out of the

way till it were all over. I've told him to go to the police.

I stay close.

Any service?

How long have you known Ito, Harry?

Ever since he first come over here.

Oh, when the first wrestlers he signed up. Where'd he come from, Japan?

He hadn't been in Japan since before the war. He were in...

I forget now, somewhere to the side of Europe. The Balkans?

Ah, that's right. He run a gym there one time.

How much did Ito pay you for a fight?

About six pounds.

And how often did you fight?

Once a week, sometimes twice.

Not much to give a wife, are you?

Well, we're regular.

How old are you, Harry?

Well, there's a lot of blokes as old as me still doing all right.

Hey, just a minute.

Edna said you might be able to do something for me. Where are you staying?

She knows.

I'll be in touch.

Oh, don't worry, love.

Never treats me sweet and gentle

The way he should

I got it back

that ain't good

my

poor heart is sentimental

not made

But when...

Take a seat, Edna. I've already seen her. Thanks for giving her a job.

Oh, think nothing of it. What about mine?

Oh, fine. He looked enraptured. Get straight back to him. Strike him while

iron is hot.

Fine. He was so enraptured, he's left.

So where have you been? In the club.

What happened to him?

Shall I get an ambulance? Don't worry about that. Get a place. Go on.

Sarko!

He's here.

I said he would get my coat.

I waited so long.

I came to see why.

Well, he's the last of your bodyguards.

I think I'd better see you home.

And so with the acceptance by the Western delegates of this final clause

relating to terms of payment, that is to say the transference of 10 million

pounds in sterling into a Swiss bank for immediate use in making European

purchases, I am very pleased to say that we are now ready to sign the agreement

without any further reservation.

Congratulations. Thank you, Mr. Steele.

You'll drive a hard bargain on that final clause.

Ten million pounds in cash?

I have a responsibility to my country.

Credit transfers are all very well.

But when I go ahead a contract, I like to get as much as possible in cash.

It's safer that way, don't you think? You're signing the agreement this

afternoon? Yes. Your foreign office has rushed it through. They seem rather

anxious to get rid of me.

I'm sure you'll be too, Mr. Steele. I don't know. Rather dull without you. Are

you going out tonight?

He's excellent. He prefers to travel by day. He will leave tomorrow morning.

Yes. It will give me a few hours to enjoy your beautiful city. I'll be happy

show you around.

Thank you. I have a good guidebook.

I'll be with you just the same.

Really?

Am I to understand that you are taking over the role of my personal bodyguard?

That's right, until your plan is.

You think I'm still in danger, Mr. Steele? Yes.

Oh.

In that case, we shall be very careful, won't we?

Hi, Edna.

I've got to see you for a minute.

Sure. One moment, Dave.

What is it?

It's my Harry.

I knew where he was supposed to be staying last night, and he never went

Last night? But... Yes.

He was here just before that fella got killed, and he never went back. Look,

don't you think you'd better go for the police?

I don't know. I just don't know anymore.

He was a good wrestler. He was champion in the North until the old ones came

along, and then they didn't want him anymore.

And this fellow Ito signed him up and he was so grateful he'd do anything for

him. Well, Edna, I'd like to help. Well, I thought perhaps your friend would

help. I'm sure he will if he can.

Well, if you just find him before the police do, before he gets into any more

trouble, that's all I want. I'll talk to him. Excuse me, Venus, you're one on

the phone, darling.

Don't worry, he'll show up.

Who is it, Dave? Your boyfriend.

Ah, Venus, how nice to hear your voice again.

Are you engaged at the moment?

Oh, I'm sure rehearsers can wait.

I can explain all that.

Please. Please, I have so little time here in London.

That's better.

I shall send my car round for you.

I recognise those legs. I've been looking for you all afternoon.

Shh.

What's wrong?

What's wrong?

Do you know that Harry Ramsden was at the club last night? Yes, I did.

Well, look, I've just been talking to his wife. He's disappeared again.

Yeah, I thought he'd do that.

Is that what's worrying you?

Of course that's what's worrying me. It's dangerous, isn't it, with him out

the loose?

Happy me that gets bumped off next.

I've got my eye on you.

Hey, don't be rough on Bob.

He's just about ready with that contract.

You'd better be right.

And don't go away.

I wouldn't dream of it.

Come in.

Somebody sick?

What? Oh, forget it.

Here?

Please sit down.

I see you have a new bodyguard.

I should be careful what I say to him. Why?

Although I may seem indifferent, I'm very concerned that two of my fellow

countrymen died protecting me. I'm glad of that, but where does he fit in?

He was present on both occasions.

Why have you asked me around?

Oh, I hate being alone.

One way or another, you've had a pretty bad time lately.

Well, there are conversations.

Never mix business with pleasure.

Business?

Yes, I think this is about the moment.

Right, you're supposed to be fixing me up with a tour.

Who told you this? A friend.

You're supposed to be fixing me up with a tour of the Balkans, singing.

My dear Venus, I'm afraid your friend has misinformed you.

I'm not an impresario.

You're not? No, of course not.

I'm afraid your friend has made a mistake.

You're dead right he's made a mistake. And I'm going to see about it now. Oh,

please. Please don't go. Look, we're obviously all under some sort of... Oh,

please. Please. What does it matter?

I enjoy so much being with you.

In any case, I'll be going home soon. Well, I want to go to rehearsal.

Please. Please, just for today.

Incidentally, you mentioned a tour.

Well... Strangely enough, that's exactly what I was considering just before you

came in.

Have you ever been to Switzerland?

Not recently.

Well, I have to go there for a few days just for some financial matters.

Then I want to go to Monte Carlo, Venice, Palm Springs.

I want to go to all the most exciting holiday resorts in the world. And I want

you to come with me.

Me?

But are you sure? I mean, there must be so many other girls in your life. I want

you to come with me.

Yes, but I... You don't have to decide now.

I shall order tea, and then I'd like to take you out for the evening.

Let us see if my new bodyguard can make tea as well as his predecessors.

Well, it seems our Mr. Steed is not such an efficient watchdog after all.

You know, you have to have a license to carry guns here.

You wanted to see me about something?

Yeah, if you want to bump off Jacob, Bob, why not do it in your own country?

Is he too popular there, or is it some kind of personal vendetta?

I've arranged for you to be arrested as soon as you leave the building.

You couldn't hold me.

I know, you can go as soon as Bob leaves the country. I'm not interested in him

after that. You ready?

You don't think I'm going to walk out of the building and be arrested?

All right, please yourself. Stay here if you want. You won't be allowed to leave

it.

Steve.

I wanted to kill Yakov Barb. I could have done it a dozen times over.

But you had to get rid of his bodyguards first, eh? His guards.

They were employed by me. They took their instructions only from me. What

of instructions?

Oh, that doesn't concern you. Now, look, can't you start trusting me?

You just told me I was trying to kill Barb. I had to force you out of your

shell. Now, why did you put those guards on board?

Keep him from escaping.

He got tired of his post about 12 months ago, and he's been looking for a chance

to escape ever since.

Well, couldn't he just resign?

I can't see Alcobar playing the rich playboy in our country.

Not to do that, he would have to come to the West. He might even do it. He can

always apply for political asylum.

I don't think he'll have much opportunity.

Why not? He's too well guarded.

Phil?

Phil?

Peter?

idea of taking me out for the evening.

Terribly sorry.

It won't take long. Just a little business to conclude.

Ah, Ito.

Uh, Venus, I'd like you to meet a very good friend of mine, Ito, from the old

days. Once we shared a prison cell together.

Oh.

Uh, would you sit to the chauffeur, please?

Yes, excuse me.

Hey,

what's the big idea?

Oh, please, don't be alarmed. Ito won't have him. But what had he done wrong?

Igor's been paid by my ambassador to spy on me.

Look, do you mind telling me what's going on? Before I do, would you give me

answer to the question I asked you this afternoon?

Will you come with me?

But it's not as easy as that.

I thought you'd care for me.

Well, I do. I mean, I really do now that I've got to know you, but... Why do you

hesitate? Well, it's just that it's all so sudden.

For a start, I haven't got a passport.

Mrs. Jacob Smith?

And Mr. Jacob Smith.

I took the liberty of borrowing your surname.

Yes, but where did you get this? It's even got my photo in it.

We have every facility for this type of thing at the embassy. Yes, now look, Mr.

Ball, before we go any further with this, I don't know what the customs are

in your country. Before you go any further, I have booked two seats on a

leaving for Geneva in two hours, and two suites booked on arrival, but in

different hotels.

I am also providing you with a little spending money, so you can always come

back if you want to.

Now what do you say?

I should have to phone my landlady and cancel the milk.

Please do. The phone is in the office.

Ito, we'll show you the way.

Ito, please.

But I don't have any clothes.

I shall buy you the most expensive outfit in Geneva.

Miss Venus.

Oh, we seem to have lost him in spite of your guard. I should never have left

the embassy, neither should you. We're at the airport, first plane to

Switzerland. If so, then your chauffeur will phone me. There's a radio telephone

in the car. Well, let's hope we get the chance.

Yep.

Uh -huh.

I'll be there in a few minutes. No need to worry. It's at the bar. It's around

the corner.

If you don't mind, you'll stay here.

Oh, thank you. Did you get through?

Yes, thank you. How long will it be before he gets here?

Before who gets here? Your friend, Steed.

Steed? I had exactly the same trouble with the other young lady, the one that

had the accident.

Only she used to report to my ambassador.

Why should I want to report on you?

Now we shall just have to wait for Mr. Steed.

What do you want him for?

When you're trying to shake off a bodyguard, the first essential is to

where he is.

Otherwise, you can't be sure if you're shaking him off.

How do you know I won't scream all the way to the plane? Because I shall be the

savage all the way.

This is what we call a nerve spot.

There are a dozen others on your body I can reach in less than a second.

With any one of them, I can render you senseless before you can even cry out.

Is it?

Ah, it's Mr. Steed. We were expecting you.

You'll have to come and get me, Mr. Steed.

If that's what you want.

simple murder.

In that case, I demand to be returned to my own country.

I don't think that will help you much more.

Your countrymen are not going to be very pleased when they find that you have

embezzled ten million pounds for your own use.

Jacob,

is that true?

I negotiated this.

Without me, there would have been no loan. No, Jacob, no!

I know what I must do now.

If I don't...

Somebody else will.

But I don't want that to happen.

It's a fee house.

Please, get him out of here. And call the police on the way out.

Good thing I came along, eh?

How did you know we were here?

I had Harry tailing you.

He phoned me at the embassy. I thought you might not get a chance to phone.

Well, I did.

I phoned my landlady.

Your land, lady.

To stop the milk.

I'm sorry it didn't work out. Are you?

You knew from the start it would never work out, that there was going to be no

tour, no contract.

You left me alone with this man that was a... I've said I'm sorry.

All right.

But don't do it again.

As if I would.
