One, two, three.

Excuse me, I'm a doctor.

Try and keep this collision down, will you? Keep that car back, will you? Very

good.

Will someone ring for an ambulance, please?

Wait,

Steve. Is he alive?

Did you get the man?

The one that did this?

Don't bother about that now. I wonder who he is.

I haven't an earthly. I got the wrong man. Can't that wait?

Come along, Peter.

Now, look.

I wanted to see you, but I don't want to be around here when the police come.

I'll drop in and see you later, OK?

Who are you, sir?

I'm a doctor.

Oh, very good. So the ambulance is on its way.

How is he?

He's dead.

Oh, well, I'd better get rid of the ambulance.

Lovely, isn't it?

Yes. Have you looked at the Marcus Aurelius?

No, I haven't. Oh, you should. It's that one down there.

Would you mind telling me why you did not deliver Monsieur Roland to the

conference with our minister this morning?

I thought it best not to deliver him dead.

You should prefer a more formal report, Steve, without commentary.

At 10 .08 hours, I accompanied Monsieur Roland to the lobby of the Astor Towers

Hotel.

That time, Mr. Alan Price, oil representative, was shot and killed in

immediate vicinity.

Price in inclination with you admission?

No. What did you do with Monsieur Roland after the shooting?

I put him in the manager's office and went through Price's belongings.

Then I rang up Harvey and told him we had a washout.

You didn't think it advisable to go through with the meeting as planned?

I think, after what had happened. Where is Monsieur Roland now?

I advised him to stay in his suite until any meeting place could be set up.

We're contributing to the danger in East Asia by not producing Monsieur Roland

alive and negotiating. I hope you realize that. Perfectly. We didn't

explain to the minister. There's never an explanation for failure to carry out

an assignment, Steve. I believe there is.

What do you mean?

An informer.

Not a thing to admit, is it? No. What evidence have you?

I have no evidence.

Is that just conjecture?

There have been failures in several assignments this year. Three are the

five of them. Aren't you guessing, Steve?

You know I'm not. In each of the missions, one vital moment has been

I'm sure that there must be an informer. Your theory is the explanation.

Well, look what happened today.

You think there's an informer, Steve. I suggest you carry out your assignment,

Monsieur Roland Foult.

I'd like to see 110 about this.

No, he's not available.

You're responsible to me.

What is the plan for the new meeting between Sir Roland and the minister?

But I was going to work out a plan with Harvey.

Saved you the trouble?

Thank you.

I can see Harvey now. Yes, do that. Give my regards to his wife.

Very attractive woman.

I think I'll move on to the block.

Thank you.

You'd be a bit judgy yourself if you'd stood there for an hour and listened to

the minister rant on about inefficiency.

Ministers don't like being kept waiting around for nothing.

Hardly for nothing.

It's all right from your end.

I'm the one who's looking after the minister. You don't even tell me Roland

isn't going to turn up. Please convey my apologies to the minister.

You're never in the flap, are you, Steve? You're wrong. I'm concerned about

keeping the minister waiting.

Here are the plans.

Both of our moves are specified. I'd like my coffee back.

Bit high -handed, aren't you?

Not me. 112. He blew it up.

I've never met him before. He's quite a connoisseur.

Tea break.

Ah, delicious.

No tea for me, Lillian.

Oh, Mark, you must have something. You haven't eaten all day. I don't want any

tea.

I'm sorry.

It hasn't been very well lately.

Oh, I'm sorry too.

Sugar?

No, thank you.

How are you? We haven't seen you for some time. No, that's right.

I'm fine, ladies.

I've been very busy, of course.

That's a very nice dress, suits you. Oh, do you think so?

Yeah. It's exclusive but expensive, I'm afraid.

Mark's been doing well.

Oh, I'm glad to hear that.

This place is new, isn't it?

Hmm. He wanted a room apart from the rest of the house so that he could work

better.

I suppose he spends quite a lot of his time here?

Yes.

What's that?

Oh, it's a school.

A school?

Oh, he never had anything like that in my day.

Oh, it's part of a new development.

I think he's just finished his one.

Will he be keeping you amused? Yes, it'll be very interesting.

Won't you have some more tea?

No, I'm terribly sorry. I really must go.

Bye -bye.

Can I have my first occasion? Of course.

Look, find me. I'll get the surveyor to give an estimate of the cost.

Fine. Goodbye, Mrs. Harvey, and thank you for the tea. Goodbye.

Mark, are you all right?

Darling, I've told you before.

I don't want you fussing all the time.

All right, darling, I'm sorry.

Fine.

Now I have work to do.

Bye.

Unnecessary. I realize your job is to protect me whether I like it or not, but

you can never make me believe that all this elaborate security is really

necessary. Well, after all, Mr. Romer, you weren't nearly killed today.

A man with my position makes as many enemies as friends.

Well, I'm not so sure about that. Anyway, apart from your personal safety,

political implications of your death would be immeasurable.

I find it necessary to resist the idea that I am indispensable to anyone.

The United Nations have many more people as capable as I who could continue the

East Asia negotiations. I don't agree, Monsieur Roland. I understand there's

every chance for peaceful settlement now if you complete those negotiations

successfully.

You are right, of course.

And it is up to your minister and myself to find a way.

Tell me your new plan for our meeting tomorrow. I've written the details down.

Good. I find verbal instructions hard to remember.

Does the minister have a plan, too? Yes. Of course, he's more difficult to

conceal. Your face is not as well known to the public here. I have worked to

keep it that way. Now, there's one point on that paper that isn't exactly

specified.

More intrigue?

Yes. I'm going to take your place in the car in which you go to the meeting.

This is all very well, but when do I meet the minister?

I assure you, you will meet the minister later on in the day.

That is, if you don't change the plan again, Monsieur Steed.

Mr. Steed.

Oh, Jane, am I right? Yes.

Hello, Judy. Hello, Doctor.

You know Etienne Roland?

He's in the country and I'm looking after him. That's marvellous. I hope

both be very happy. He's here for confidential meetings about the East

problem. Well, not before time, I must say.

He's a cunning old fox.

If anyone can get us out of this particular mess, it's him.

That's the general consensus of opinion, and that is why I'm in trouble.

Look, at the risk of being a bore, would you mind filling me in on a little of

the case history, such as why you got me out this morning to render first aid to

a dead man?

You know something, Steed?

You'd be far better off with a pathologist.

Yeah, I'm sorry about that.

Oh, so is Mrs. Price.

Hmm? The widow.

Oh.

Could have been worse, you know. That was Roland I was with this morning.

Oh. Could have been much, much worse.

There are people with a vested interest in stirring up the sort of trouble that

Monsieur Roland is here trying to prevent.

Yes, I can see that.

Do you think I'll try again? Of course.

I need your help.

You're always saying that.

As if that's a sufficient reason for involving me in your life.

Do I ever come around needing your help?

You know where you live.

What do you want, anyway?

Officially, Roland is meeting the minister tomorrow.

Unofficially, I'm going to take his place.

What do you know about East Asia?

I hope it won't come to that.

Anyway, I'm counting on them trying again, so there's no room for mistakes.

Well, they won't allow me to prescribe bulletproof waistcoats on the National

House. I'm sure of that.

That's quite a pretty thought.

Look, all I want you to do is to shadow me.

Now, the meeting place is here at this hotel.

You see there?

Now, I want you to wait just about there.

Now, the car will come up here and we'll stop outside the kitchen entrance of

the hotel there. And I shall go in through the back into the kitchen

All I want you to do is keep sight of me and also keep an eye on anyone else

coming up behind.

Now, listen, Steve. From now on, I'm just going to be a doctor. I'm not going

be anything else. I'm not going to be an agent, a counter -spy, a gunman, or a

cover for you, or anything you can use in your business. I'm just going to be a

doctor, so you can leave me in peace.

All right, Doctor.

Sitting here isn't going to help Price's widow, you know. At least I'm

doing something about it.

I'm trying to get the gunman and his employees before they kill anyone else.

Like you, for instance.

Well, let's not take too pessimistic of you.

What about a fair little drink?

No, thank you. I've got some patience.

Okay.

You sure you're all right?

Yes, I'm all right, thanks.

All right. See you then.

What time?

Eleven o 'clock tomorrow.

Here we are.

Cold enough for you, sir?

Oh, yes, that's fine.

Thank you. Thank you, sir.

Thank you, sir.

Good afternoon. I'll be with you in just one moment. If you'd like to sit in

that chair over there, please.

That's all right. Thank you very much.

Good afternoon, sir. Good afternoon.

No, they're working over you. Yes, please.

Very good, sir.

Excuse me.

Can I have a pack of these razor blades?

Certainly, sir. Just one moment.

Ten o 'clock, sir.

Ten, please.

There you are. Three and four, please.

Thank you, sir.

Thank you very much, sir.

Quite a place, isn't it, sir?

Quite a place. Oh, no, sir. Not that one.

Right. Thank you. Good night, sir.

Oh, that dog was out of White City last week.

He's still running, I think.

All right?

Yes.

After Steed left you at the British Museum, he went straight to Harbour

Arrived 2 .15, left at 10 to 3. Yes.

He drove to the Astor Hotel and went up to Roland Suite.

He arrived at 3 .30 and left at 4 .10. Yes.

Then he went to see Dr.

King at 12 Marchbanks Terrace, SW3. Yes, I know about Dr. King. Oh.

Well, he got there at half past four and stayed until just after five.

Then he went straight to his club and had two large brandies and soda.

That's so unusual.

No, but he drank them rather quickly, which isn't really like him.

With training.

Stanley? Right.

Careful, Jason.

Steed's very good.

You would wear a coat today, wouldn't you, Monsieur? Oh, yes. I don't like

weather.

Is this quite like the coat you'd wear?

Why, yes.

Very elegant.

Oh, thanks a lot. It's one of mine.

I see you've got a hat, too.

Yes. Would you wear the Homburg? Yes.

Would you keep it on, leaving the hotel?

No. Oh, but I suppose I might.

Well, I'd help if you could. Would you keep it on the car?

Yes. Good.

Now, I have a favor to ask, sir. Yes?

Your cane is very distinctive. May I borrow it?

Oh, certainly.

I have another stick.

Here is my cane.

Thank you. It was my father's. He gave it me when I was commissioned.

That was 1915.

Ah, let me see you walk.

No, no, no, not so quickly. You forget I am 20 years older than you.

Well, it looks from here, isn't it? That's keeping the knees straight.

Yes.

Like... like this.

Well, I think I'm about ready now. Is there anything else you can do?

Oh, the hat a little more forward.

Oh, right.

That's it.

And, uh, and this.

Take care of McCain, won't you? Of course.

Mr. Steed, do you think you are going to deceive anyone with this masquerade?

I'm betting the people who are after you won't be checking their face.

All they're counting on is a certain car on a certain route at a certain time,

stopping outside the kitchen entrance of a certain hotel.

And they'll go for whoever gets out.

But I thought your plans were a closely kept secret.

So they are, Mr. Rowan.

It would seem so.

Right. Hold on, please.

Dr. King's surgery.

Is he there?

Who is it speaking, please?

Steed. Oh, I'm afraid the doctor's gone out, Mr. Steed. Oh, good. One of his

patients has been hurt in a car crash.

How long ago was that?

About half an hour.

Didn't you say anything about contacting me?

No, Mr. Steed.

He was in a hurry.

I see.

Do you want to leave a message?

No, no, just tell him I rang.

Right. Goodbye.

Excuse me. Yes, Scott?

You tell me where the service lift is.

Service lift? You'd be so kind.

What do you want the service lift for?

I want to go upstairs.

It'd be easier to go around the front, wouldn't it?

What room do you want?

486.

486, that's over the other side.

You'd be quite far quicker if you took the regular lift. It's just down there.

Oh, thank you.

That's all right, Scott.

That's right, Gus.

Check it on the left.

I'm very gratified. Keep an eye on him, will you?

Oh, where are you off to? There's another one outside.

Hey, keep him in one piece. I want to talk to him.

The minister was furious.

Steed really landed me in it, I can tell you.

I felt pretty foolish standing there watching Roland's car arrive and Steed

out. I bet you did. I can't wait to tell 112 what I think of Steed.

Oh, 112 left a message just before you arrived. He's not coming.

But it's essential, I see.

Sorry. But I can tell you why he's not here.

Yes?

Someone took a shot at Steed. This took him for Roland.

They missed, of course.

Luckily, yes.

There's no luck about that.

Steed set up the shooting to take suspicion of himself.

Look, Harvey.

Steed doesn't play it by the book, I know, but after all he wouldn't... Sell

information?

I know somebody he has been.

You've known yourself for some time.

Yes.

Just keep an eye on Steed.

As a matter of fact, I have.

Officially.

On whose orders?

112.

Where did you play?

Oh,

Wing Free Quarter. That was a terrific tackle.

Oh, did you find anything out?

Yeah, he's pretty fed up. But when he knew I wasn't the man he was supposed to

shoot, he was only too happy to talk.

Unfortunately, he hasn't got anything to tell me. Just want those to pay me now.

Who do I shoot next for a chance? Oh, you two should get along famously.

That is unworthy of him.

Yeah, I don't suppose I could have trust him.

Now, only five people knew about that meeting this morning.

Four in the organisation and you.

Me? I think this morning let you out.

Oh, thanks.

So one of the four of us is telling tales out of school.

Now, 112.

112. Yeah, he's, what should we say, one of my oldest and betters.

He's got quite a reputation. I hadn't worked with him before this assignment.

He set up this meeting this morning for Monsieur Roland. Second one is Harvey.

He's my opposite number, so to speak.

He looks after Roland.

I look after the minister.

You know, I think he's hiding something.

I wish I could get back to that house of his. I can't think of an excuse.

Maybe you could... Could you help me?

Well, as you ask. Well, it's very kind of you. Good.

Then there's Fraser. Now, he runs a barber shop.

And he's easy as one to keep track of.

Oh, what do you mean?

I can't decide him. He's been following me for the past two days.

Oh, well, I don't suppose he'd be at the party.

Yeah,

roll on. The minister meeting tonight. And 1 .12 is...

Trying cocktail party.

Now the papers know that Roland is in the country, there's no point in trying

hide him. I'd better be off there. It's only a small one, but you never know.

Yeah, of course. Once you start suspecting your own associates, there's

to it, is there? Hey, by the way, who's the fourth suspect?

Me.

But then I'm Caesar's wife.

Steve may be losing his grip, which I doubt. I agree.

Go on. Or else he's trying to make it appear that Monsieur Roland is in

danger. Yeah. So that when he's killed...

Steed can be clear of implications.

May comfort you to know that I considered Steed's actions very

And you think he's the informer? That's not being proved yet.

Well, I don't need any more proof.

Monsieur Roland will be giving a small cocktail party this evening at six o

'clock. I want you to see that the minister joins the party.

I will be there, and the meeting with Monsieur Roland will take place in

room during the party. Seems rather public. There may be safety in numbers,

in any case, Monsieur Roland's presence and purpose are no longer a secret.

I want that meeting to take place so that the whole business is over and done

with this evening.

Monsieur Roland has to fly back tonight.

Steve will be there?

Yes. That way we can keep an eye on him.

Sandwich?

No, thank you.

The minister won't appear at the party, Monsieur Roland.

We'll be told when he arrives.

It's a very civilized way to begin a meeting.

Oh, can I get you another drink? Oh, yes, please.

Whiskey soda.

I've got a lot of talking to do.

Excuse me, please. Thank you. Could I have two whiskies?

And soda with them.

You must have been on holiday. It's a beautiful town. I have. Thank you. Just

one more.

Bye.

Hello.

I was looking for Mark. Have you seen him anywhere?

He'll be here soon. Let me introduce Monsieur Roland, Mrs. Harvey.

How do you do, madame?

I hope you're enjoying your visit to England.

All too brief, I'm afraid.

This way, sir.

To a charming person like yourself, I think Paris means couturier and perfume.

But I like to remember it in the springtime.

That was how I saw it for the first time in the 1418 war.

The minister's here.

However, there are some things that never change.

Do you know, madame, I must confess to you, I have always been a slave to

beauty.

Would you excuse me, please? Of course.

Charm.

Oh, they're waiting for us, huh?

Huh? They're ready for us.

Pity.

Excuse me.

Ah,

at last.

Oh, he's quite a charmer, isn't he?

I thought you were with Mark.

He's in the middle of some business talk.

Who's that he's with?

Oh, I don't know.

I expect he wants Mark to design a building or something.

Well, I'm not surprised. Where are they going to put that school?

Well, somewhere up north, I think. That's a beautiful job.

He's very proud of it. How is he today?

Oh, better.

But I'm still worried about him.

Why? Well, he hasn't been well for some time.

What, did you see a doctor?

I have.

What did he say? I don't know.

He didn't like to ask Mark. I gather that he didn't think much of him.

Why, you ought to see another doctor.

There isn't much hope of that, I'm afraid.

I've tried to make him, but he won't.

Do you know, lately, I think he's got worse.

I'm sure he's in pain a lot of the time.

Oh.

Well, let's just hope it's overworked.

I don't know. Too much work, too little exercise. One day, collapse.

You're cheerful.

No, I'm serious. I'm speaking from experience.

A couple of years ago, I had a lot.

Headaches, dizziness, spots before the eye.

But luckily, I met a wonderful doctor. Oh.

Do you think he could help Mark?

Why not?

Then Mark wouldn't go, would he?

Well, I suppose I could try again.

I don't suppose it would do much good, though.

He'd be terribly angry if he thought I was discussing it with anyone.

I can't say I blame him, particularly with a business associate.

But you don't have to say it was me. In fact, for the sake of our future

relationship, I'd prefer you didn't.

Oh, excuse me. I think he wants me. Hold on a second. I'll set that.

That's King.

He's very good.

And discreet.

And us, too.

Gerard, 1071.

Oh, hello.

I think I've got a patient for you.

Oh, what's the trouble?

His name's Harvey.

Harvey?

Something tells me I don't have to examine her too thoroughly, right? Well,

think it'll look a bit better if you do.

Yes, all right.

Thanks a lot.

May I have a whiskey, please?

It's Friday here, isn't it?

Isn't it supposed to be?

I thought so.

Oh, thank you very much. Could I have some water?

Thank you. Cheers.

Cheers.

What's wrong? We don't know.

Well, it depends, doesn't it?

On what?

On who you really do know.

True.

Where's Lillian?

They're talking to 112.

I didn't realize that you were our host.

It's a very pleasant party.

What's it made of?

Nothing in particular.

Any excuse?

Have you known Mark for long?

Quite some time.

That's funny.

I'm sorry. I didn't mean to be rude. It's just that he's never mentioned you

before.

Excuse me. Thank you.

Right in the middle of the party.

Excuse me.

Hello,

Mark.

Darling, are you all right?

I feel terrible.

Mr. Steve, something's the matter with Mark.

Look, let's get him to a chair.

That's right.

Excuse me.

I'll get him a cab. Thank you.

Yes, all right.

Yes, straight away.

I'll be sick. I think he ought to go home.

You stay here and see all the guests. In two hours' time, Roland will leave for

the airport.

Don't let him out of your sight. Right.

Darling, just sit here until you feel better. Mr. Steve's getting us a taxi.

Hello,

Gerard, 1071.

Hello, is that Dr. King? Speaking, yes.

My name is Lillian Harvey.

My husband has been taken ill, Doctor, and it seems to be serious.

John Steed gave me your name.

Won't you come over right away? Yes, of course. What's your address?

What exactly happened?

He collapsed just as we were coming in. I managed to get him out of bed.

We'd left the party early because he wasn't feeling well. Do you have much to

drink, ma 'am? No, I don't think so.

I hope he's been ill for some time, doctor, but he's never collapsed before.

What's been the trouble?

I don't know. My husband doesn't talk much about himself.

Who's your family doctor?

We haven't got one.

Hasn't he seen anybody?

Yes, he did see one man, but nothing much came of it. When was that?

About five or six months ago, Doctor.

What did he say?

I don't know. I didn't like to ask Mark. He seemed upset about it all.

I don't think that they saw eye to eye.

Didn't he prescribe anything?

Mark wouldn't talk about it at all. He seemed to think the man was a complete

charlatan.

What was his name? Do you remember?

No, but I could find it if you think it might be important.

Oh, it's no hurry, but if you can look it out, it might be helpful. Yes, of

course. It's sure to be in his address book.

That's funny.

It doesn't seem to be here.

He must have left it upstairs.

He's got so untidy lately. I'll go and get it. Thanks.

Here it is, Dr.

G. Walton, Millbank Hospital.

Are you sure of that, Mrs. Harvey? Well, that's what it says here.

Do you know him?

Well, yes, I do, and I must say, charlatans aren't the only word you

describe him.

Is his phone number there? Yes.

Is there an extension to that phone? Yes, of course. There's one just outside

the door.

Well, I shan't be with it. I think I'll just go and give him a ring.

You never know, he might be able to tell me something.

I want to know how he got in here. I found him when you collapsed. I told you

never to let anyone in the house unless I know about it. He's lying on the

floor. Where did this doctor come from?

Darling, you were ill.

Where did he come from? I had a number.

Where did you get it? From a friend. What friend?

Dr. King was recommended to me.

Recommended, was he?

By whom?

By whom?

I see.

How sure of that can you be?

Too late for that.

Stop crying.

Stop crying and tell me who told you to call him.

He didn't want you to know. He said he'd help you. But who's he?

I promised not to tell.

Who?

John Steed.

Steed?

Shut up and stay where you are.

I'm very sorry to have wronged you at this hour.

Yes, I will.

Thank you very much for your help.

Come in, Doctor.

I fear we have a friend in common.

How do you feel now, Steve?

Oh, that's right behind the ear.

Very professional.

Sir, you're right.

You've disobeyed orders for following me here.

True. But you've had poor old Fraser there following me for the past two

Yes, I knew you'd spot him.

More important, I knew how he would find out. I wanted him to think that you

were the suspected informer.

So you're certain it's Harvey?

Fraser was certain.

That's what the phone call was about.

Now the proof's gone.

Yeah. Who are you left with, Roland?

Stanley. I can't you do as you're told, Steve.

Go and bring in Harvey.

Quietly, if possible.

Well, I see to Roland.

How do I know that you didn't kill him?

Don't know.

And that you're on your way to kill Roland?

Yes, quite.

The question of who's to guard, the guards themselves.

Eh, Steve?

A problem that's bound to arise in our line of business from time to time. So

I've noticed.

You'll just have to trust me.

Lillian, take this for a moment, will you? Point it at the doctor.

What's the matter, darling? What's wrong? Isn't he a real doctor?

Yes, is that all right? You just do as I say.

But hold it steady.

Look, Mark, what's happening? Don't you really know what your husband's doing,

Mrs. Harvey?

I don't know what anybody's doing, you or him.

Mark, aren't you going to answer him?

Never talk when you're holding a gun on someone, darling.

You'll only end up distracting yourself.

Hello?

Look, I can't talk to you now. There's someone here who'll have to call me

I must talk to you. Haven't you got an extension?

I can't leave.

Look, I can't waste any more time. Things have moved.

That barber found out too much and we've had to kill him.

If we don't get to Roland quickly now, there's junk in the blab in our face.

When's the next meeting?

They've had the meeting.

Roland is leaving for London Airport.

I was drugged.

Roland, on his way to the airport now.

For your sake, I hope we get there first.

Drugged? I'm not going to hurt you.

I hate you, Harvey. Shut up.

I'm afraid you and I are going to have to take a little walk, Doctor. There's

alternative.

But we're lucky we may meet your friend Steed on the way.

Steed? What's John Steed got to do with all this? Mr. Steed's a very wicked man,

darling. Dr. King here is one of his associates in crime.

That's right, isn't it, Doctor?

You don't have Steed's sense of humour, do you?

Get the car out of the garage, will you?

But, Mark... Get the car!

Can I ask you a

question? Go ahead.

Why do you do it?

Is that a doctor's curiosity? Yes, partly.

I suppose there's no harm in your knowing now.

As you've obviously noticed, I have a very lovely wife who likes to live

expensively and well.

Do you know what that can lead to?

Or do you?

Yes, I know.

Do you really understand about my wife?

No, perhaps not.

But you do know what I have wrong with me, don't you?

It doesn't give me much time.

Do you know I have no place in my line of work for dying men?

No retirement or burial benefits.

So you decided to go it alone?

Yes.

I listened to several offers and chose the one that offered the best insurance

for the future.

You don't have any future, Harvey.

No, I don't.

But then, come to think of it, neither do you, Dr. King.

But Lillian does, and I need to see that she enjoys it. At the expense of other

people's lives.

I'm only interested in one life, Doctor.

Be careful.

Turn around.

Now his bag.

Stand away from him.

Well, you are nervous.

I'm not a professional, Harvey. I can't give a jump on you.

You aren't going to waste any more time, Doctor.

Walk slowly towards the door.

Oh, Lillian.

I may be gone until morning. Reach into my pocket here, will you? Second number

on the list.

Ring through and leave a message to say I'll contact them as soon as I can.

Yes.

All right, Doctor.

Open the door.

No, I wouldn't bother.

Did he say where he was taking you?

No. Well, you'd better ring your people at London Airport. He warned them real

early on his way there.

Where? Five minutes ago.

That's no use. They won't know who it's there. Come on.

Your flight will be right on time. You have about 20 minutes.

Thank you.

Good evening, gentlemen, and thank you for being here.

Discussing the present situation.

It is very pleasant for me to be able to say that the minister and I have

reached complete agreement.

I'm therefore returning to New York with some optimism, as I feel.

I think that an important step has been made towards bringing about the

resumption of the ceasefire thought, which was so tragically broken off last

month. I would like to express my admiration of the Minister for the

and skill which he has displayed in making our meeting possible.

I am grateful to him and to your country for the cooperation which I have

experienced in these two short days.

And now, there is something you would like to ask me? Huh.

Certain members of the rebel faction have, on many occasions, accused you of

having the interest of the colonial powers foremost in your mind.

Would you think comment on that? I would remind you that the rebel faction

itself strongly disapproves of those extremists who have been responsible for

much of the violence.

Could I borrow your paper, please? I think it's true that they themselves

shortly take action against these people. And when this happens...

I think they will be perfectly willing to accept the United Nations as an

arbitrator between them and the local government.

Will you be acting as mediator again, sir?

Oh, that I'm afraid it is impossible to say. Too early.

But the first thing to be done is to get both parties round the table to resume

talks.

Oh, thank you.

Well, gentlemen, I am sorry, but we must finish.

I would only like to say... But the next time I'm in your country, I hope it

will be for a longer stay.

Thank you all very much. Good night.

Thank you, sir.

Good night.

Fascinating old boy, isn't he?

Well, what are you going to do now?

Oh, I see.

Well, in that case, I think I'll get on with the bus.

See you.

Ah, Monsieur Steve.

Well, you see, I'm still very much alive.

I told you there was nothing to worry about.

Au revoir. Have a good trip, sir. Thank you.
