Hello, McGill.

Hey, John.

Good to see you. Yeah, good to see you.
How was the trip, all right?

Pretty good, pretty good. No, thanks.

I got it. Thank you.

Let's go.

How's London? Still swinging?

Oh, yeah. Like a pendulum, too.

Did you hear anything about the woman or
the money?

Well, that's why you're here.

What about Laporte? Where is he? Oh,
he's down here in the car.

And this is Mr. McGill.

Hello, Mr. McGill. How are you, Mr.
LaCourte?

Fine.

John told me a lot about you. You
certainly made an impression on him. Oh,

really? You know, I feel like I've seen
you before.

That's hardly likely.

Shall we go?

Yeah.

You can go now, sir.

Right. Will you be quiet?

Quiet as devil.

Oh, Mr. McGill, you're awake.

I hope you slept well.

We weren't sure if you liked tea or
coffee, so I brought you both.

Who are you?

And where am I?

I'm afraid I can't tell you anything. I
only work here.

Well, where's my suitcase?

And where are my clothes?

In the closet.

How long have I been here?

Where's Laporte?

Laporte? Forget it.

You'll just have to wait, sir.

Please don't be hasty.

I can kill you if you force me to.

What's going on here?

I know we've behaved unpleasantly, but
we don't wish to cause you any injury.

simply have to preserve our security
arrangements.

After you.

What happened to the deal you described
in London?

That's off, I'm afraid.

But we have something better for you.

Perhaps, McGill, on your usual
assignments, for which you are paid,

week plus expenses, there's no need for
security arrangements.

But you're about to be offered something
in the neighborhood of 50 ,000.

50 ,000 dollars?

That's right.

Are you interested?

I'm fascinated.

Now, where does the money come from?
You?

Colonel Davies.

You recognized our Mr. Laporte. A little
too late.

I was fortunate for you.

I'll put this down.

Leave.

way, if you please.

Ah, McGill.

Come along in.

Who do you want assassinated?

Why do you say that?

Well, what other job pays $50 ,000?

Would you kill for money?

No. We wouldn't ask you to.

This really isn't a...

Job, as such. It's more to the nature of
a service.

Funeral service?

How good is your memory, McGill?

Oh, it's just about as good as it has to
be. Can you remember,

say, New Year's Eve, 1962?

Yeah. What did you do?

Dungeon.

How well do you remember the last few
summers?

It's not worth that much.

What about 1958?

Wasn't that a $50 ,000 summer? You were
working for American Intelligence then?

I was.

You were stationed in Central Africa, a
small country, called Akwala.

I lived around.

That's the summer we particularly want
you to remember.

Her name was Marion.

Don't be flippant.

You did work with American intelligence.
No need to deny it. And you were

stationed in Iguala. It's a matter of
record.

Never.

And the proof is you recognize me.

I saw your photographs. Everybody has.
You were president of Iguala before the

revolution. Revolution?

No, no, no.

Conspiracy. And you should know.

I repeat, $50 ,000.

Look, fellas, what... Exactly am I
supposed to know about 1958 and Iguala?

Everything.

John, you've just gone to a lot of
trouble for nothing.

Perhaps you need a few days to think it
over.

Can you show our guest into his room,
please?

Think about the money. Perhaps your
memory will improve.

It won't.

We'll help you.

I brought you some lunch.

I thought it was evening.

You were mistaken.

When do they open the shutters around
here?

When there's something to see.

Did they trust you with a key to this
place?

No.

How many of them are there?

I don't know.

Quite a few.

And some of them are watching us right
now.

They can't be.

Sure they can. Come here.

Look right there.

They're just behind that wall watching
us.

Look right through there and smile
because they're just on the other side

wall. Smile.

Let go of me.

I wonder what they would do if I got a
hold of you like this.

And said, if you don't let me out of
here, I'm going to choke this girl.

They'd let you do it. Let's find out.

I'm not important to them.

I'm leaving.

Are you going to have lunch with me?

I'm not hungry.

Well, there are two plates here. One for
you, one for me.

Yes.

I'm supposed to.

Do.

Have a seat.

Try a mushroom.

Little steak.

What's your name?

What's the difference?

I just don't like the kind of changes.

Judy. Judy.

Anybody ever tell you you were a gossip?

What is it?

What are you looking at?

They put it in the sun.

Lie still.

And don't try to speak.

Now that you're awake, I'll fix the
doctor.

You're very sick, Mr. McGill.

But don't worry, we'll soon have you on
your feet again.

All we need are the right drugs and a
little cooperation from you.

You'll be out of here in no time.

Thank you.

And you do want to be out of here as
soon as you can, don't you?

Yeah, yeah.

Your cure requires a little information.

A little information about E. coli, Mr.
McGill.

about Ikwala.

Ikwala. Ikwala.

Ikwala. Ikwala.

Ikwala.

Time of transition in Iquala.

1957 is a time of transition for Iquala,
the small Central African country which

has been under British mandate since
1919.

Iquala may be tiny, but its immensely
rich mineral deposits have given it

political importance.

There are university buildings where
many of the staff are representatives of

the forward -looking white community.

headed by Iquala's president, Colonel
Davis.

1957 has been outstanding in the
development of Iquala's industry.

Everywhere, the minds of Quetzalcoatl
began to be thoroughly exploited,

up yet another seam of prosperity for
this small but important country.

Now, we see the celebrations to mark the
opening of the first multiracial

university at Maziquit.

Here are members of the staff awaiting
the arrival of Iguana's president,

Colonel V.

And a great moment for Dr. Joseph Guabe,
the first chancellor of the university.

And thus a new era in the life of this
unique nation has been opened. An era of

reform and progress for all of us.

Time of transition in Iguana.

1957 is a time of transition for Iguana,
a small Central African country which

has been under British mandate since
1919.

There's an ever -increasing educated
African population.

Here are university buildings where many
of the staff are representatives of the

forward -looking white community headed
by Iguana's president, Colonel... It's a

bit loud, isn't it? 1957 has been
outstanding.

Cut the playdough.

Yes, we have to turn it up after each
showing.

Otherwise, having seen it for 30 or so
times, McGill might begin to lose

interest.

Would you report to Father, please? He
wants to see you.

Take it up a notch, Bill.

Do you want your tablets? No.

forget who I am, Major.

Or what I am.

Sick or well -living or dead.

Never, sir.

What about McGill?

Oh, he's on schedule, I would say.

Any time to have a break?

No.

Perhaps we should wait.

I think not. The fear is building up in
him. What we've done so far must be

taking effect.

He's no weakling.

And precisely why we must go ahead.

If we don't, he'll adjust to the present
pattern.

I want another opinion.

My results have always been satisfactory
to you before.

Your results have always been based on
my judgment.

Stay here.

Sir?

But its immensely rich mineral deposits
have given it great political influence.

There's an ever -increasing educated
African population. I didn't think I'd

you here.

I keep hoping he'll give you what you
want.

Is what we're doing absolutely
necessary?

Yes. But in the end, he still may not
help us.

He will.

We're asking him to betray his country.

No, only to tell the truth.

But he's suffering.

We suffered.

We were imprisoned, humiliated,
threatened, beaten, and exiled.

Do you remember?

Or have those years at school away from
me softened your recollection?

No. Then you save your pity for
yourself.

It's only two days.

He's changed.

In what way?

He's afraid.

He tries to hide it.

But I can tell.

Well,

sir? All right, Major.

You may proceed to the entertainment.

Take your time, by all means, Mr.
McGill.

Eating is to be enjoyed.

All of life is to be savored.

You know, most people live a life of
despair, McGill.

I remember, for example, when I was a
boy in Iquala.

The natives used to survive like relics
of prehistory, like animals.

Come along, bring a glass and join me
here.

So a few of us started a nation.

Communications.

Industry, education.

We tried to lift them from the Bronze
Age to the modern age in one generation.

And we were making progress until
radicals and fools illegally took over

Anglo -American help, of course.

They drove us into exile, and what have
they achieved?

We call it democracy.

Chaos. The jungle's moving back in.

But with your help, we can get back and
save Iquala.

I've never been to Iquala.

Really, haven't you?

Night, John.

You recognize this gentleman, of course?

Yes, Dr. Guabi.

As Chancellor of the University, you
knew him in a very different capacity.

I never knew him at all.

Oh, I think you did.

It was Guabi who sought Anglo -American
help to get his so -called popular

movement into power.

And you were the agent with whom he
arranged the deal.

Here you are, arriving in Iquala. That
could have been anywhere.

And this?

pictures you pasted together.

English and American intelligence
conspired to overthrow our government.

And you were the instrument of that
conspiracy.

$50 ,000, McGill, for your signature on
a document which tells the truth.

in Ecuador.

19th of December is the time of
transition for Ecuador, the small

African country which has been under
British mandate since 1919.

Ecuador may be tight, but it's immensely
rich mineral deposit.

Look around you McGill.

long is it since they took the bed away?

Oh, it's a few days now.

Well, they've given him some blankets.
What more does he want?

Come on, McGill. Have a good sleep.

You deserve it.

Here are members of the staff awaiting
the arrival of Iqbal as president,

Colonel Davis.

And a great moment for Dr. Joseph Wabi.

The first chancellor of the universe.

And thus a new era in the life of this
unique nation has been opened. An era of

reform and progress for all of us.

For the important country.

Now, we see the celebrations to mark the
opening of the first multiracial

university at Lazy Quinn.

How is he?

Oh, in the prime of life.

Thank you. He's still got a long way to
go.

Quite fascinating to see just how long
it takes.

It doesn't fascinate me.

Oh, my interest in this question was
aroused a long time ago.

We were dealing with vicious terrorists.

Plastic bombs on crowded buses, you
remember.

When we wanted information, we had to
get results quickly.

Like this?

Oh, no. We used simple electrical
gadgets.

Everyday household articles.

Bottle, box of matches could do the
trick.

We didn't have sophisticated equipment
then, but believe me, we got results.

I'm sure you did.

I was only obeying your father's orders.

And now?

Still obeying them, just as you are.

We're not doing these things for
amusement, but only to achieve something

we both believe in.

I'm sure that'll be a great comfort to
McGill.

Give him a reassuring smile next time
you bring him his tea.

Tell him it's all for a good cause.

Reminds me that the secret began to be
thoroughly exploited.

I brought you some breakfast.

I don't need any breakfast. I need some
sleep.

At least have a cup of coffee. I don't
want it. Just take it out of here. Get

that stuff out of here.

Go on, get out of here.

Please listen to me.

Things are only going to get worse if
you don't give them what they want.

What difference does it make to you
anyway?

What do you mean, what difference?

It'll help Colonel Davis get back to
Aquila, and that's all that matters now.

And it doesn't matter how many people he
hurts getting back.

The people want Colonel Davis. Oh.

It's England and the United States who
are... That's baloney.

Don't you know that's all a lie?

I just don't want to see you or anyone
else suffer.

And what are you doing here with these
people?

I appreciate what Colonel Davis has done
for Iquala. He hasn't done anything for

Iquala. He's only done it for Colonel
Davis.

That's all he cares about.

That's not true.

My father has given his... So he is your
father.

Okay!

I'm gonna kill her if you don't...

Do it next time.

No.

You won't. Get out of here.

Get out of here!

Get out of here!

Get out of here!

But why didn't you stop it?

Well, it was a very hard decision to
make.

I didn't want to see Miss Davies suffer
any unpleasantness, but I thought it was

a situation we could exploit.

How do you mean?

Well, I knew there was no possibility
that he would actually kill.

Even you told him as much, Miss Davies.

Afterwards. Well, I've watched this man.
I've studied him. He's not the type who

will kill in cold blood.

I saw this as a chance to show him just
how far we are prepared to go.

I hope you'll accept my apology, Miss
Davies.

I think you did the right thing, Major.

Thank you, sir.

And now, if you'll excuse me.

Carry on.

You let him get away with it.

I trust his judgment implicitly, and I
want you to do the same.

He wasn't exercising his judgment. He
was enjoying the situation.

I've watched him, I know.

Everything's getting out of hand.

The whole world's getting out of hand.
The wrong people are in power.

John's personal feelings don't come into
it, nor do mine, nor do yours.

The only thing that matters is we must
achieve what we've been working for. I

know that. That's the only way to think
of it.

We must prove to the world that we're
right, no matter what it costs us.

You know Dr. Guadby.

You know he's a sincere man.

That doesn't make him any the less
dangerous. On the contrary.

What about McGill?

We mustn't consider McGill as a person.

We must think only of the part he has to
play in our plan.

Is that the way you want me to think of
you?

By now, I hope you do.

There's something you should know about
Davies.

He's crazy, McGill.

He's quite insane, poor fellow.

It's very important for you to know
this. You see, he'll never let you out

here. You don't think you're the only
one, do you?

Don't listen to this nonsense, McGill.

Colonel Davies is the same as you or I.

What could he possibly gain from keeping
you here indefinitely?

Mark my words, he'll only keep you here
as long as he thinks you might want to

use... I don't want to know about
Davies.

They'll keep you here forever, McGill.

Take the easy way out, McGill. To live.

That's the important thing. All the
promises, McGill.

Just empty promises.

May, June, July.

General Davis isn't so bad. He's only
fighting for what he believes in. What

does he believe in, McGill?

January, February, March.

No, I don't. He's insane, I tell you.

Think of the money, McGee. The money.
The money.

The money.

What about

the money?

I'm going to shoot you, McGill.

I'm going to shoot you, McGill.

I'm going to shoot you, McGill.

Shoot you, McGill.

I'm going to shoot you, McGill.

I'm going to shoot you, McGill.

Mr. McGill, I have here a prepared
confession which you may sign and go

which states that you took part in the
Anglo -American plot to overthrow the

legally qualified government in 1958.

I'm not signing anything.

Very well.

Since you refuse to sign this
confession, we must decide under

Major, are you in favor of releasing
McGill?

No, sir.

Has the accused anything to say on his
own behalf?

I've never been an Iguala.

Major, what your recommendation?

We would do best to confine Mr.

McGill here indefinitely, sir.

I'm afraid I can't agree with you.

He's dangerous, uncooperative, and
unrepentant.

The verdict is death.

Death. Death.

Death. Death.

Death.

I've come unofficially.

The Colonel doesn't know I'm here.

What are you going to do, John?

Leave the door open?

No, not quite.

Sign the confession, McGill.

Whether it's true or false, what's the
difference?

You'll still be alive.

It's only a piece of paper, after all.

Yeah, until it's circulated to every
newspaper in the world.

American intelligence virtually accused
you of treason a long time ago.

Accused? I'm innocent.

It's not enough to be innocent. You have
to seem to be innocent.

What does a guilty man do in your
position?

If he signs a confession, well, that's
the end of him. All hope is gone.

But the innocent man, well, he can sign
a false confession.

Because if he saves his life...

He'll never be without the hope that he
can clear himself.

So you're saying if I sign the
confession, I'm innocent.

If I don't sign, I'm guilty.

If you don't sign, you're dead.

How long do I have to think about it?

Just about as long as it takes to walk
down the corridor.

If you don't sign, you're dead.

If you don't sign, you're dead.

If you don't sign, you're dead.

If you don't sign, you're dead.

Shoo -choo. Shoo -choo.

Shoo -choo. Shoo -choo.

Time's up, McGill.

Put him in this chair.

I'm going to shoo -choo, McGill.

Unless you sign that confession.

Sign the confession, McGill. It's only a
piece of paper.

I'm going to shoot you. Shoot you. Shoot
you. If you don't sign, you're dead.

I'm going to shoot you, McGill.

Whether it's true or false, what's the
difference?

You'll still be alive.

Whether it's true or false, what's the
difference?

You'll still be alive.

Sign the confession, McGill.

You don't need me for that.

You could afford that.

Now, why don't you shoot, Davies?

What do you really want?

Head him away.

That's interesting.

What?

He's taken the paper knife.

Good.

Now it only remains to make an end of
this business.

Or rather a beginning.

They're being arranged?

Yes, apart from removing the props,
furniture, partitions.

Are you certain McGill is ready?

I'm quite certain.

And you, sir?

Yes.

I'm ready.

Careful with that.

Calvin.

John, what's happening?

See for yourself.

Rewind. I wanted to see McGill.

Where is he? The guard wouldn't let me
see him.

Follow up.

Why is everything being packed?

John, where is my father?

He's in the living room.

Our work here is nearly finished.

Has McGill signed the confession?

He'll do what we want.

Then you'll release him.

You must go now.

Your ticket to Geneva and your luggage
are in your car.

John will join you in a week or so.

Where's McGill? Why can't I see him?

You can't see McGill because those are
my orders.

I want to understand your orders.

I want to do whatever you say.

But I must have reasons.

Iqbala is going to have a civilized
government again.

That's reason enough for everything.

Goodbye, Judy.

When will I see you?

I'll write to you.

Now, go to Geneva.

Forget Miguel.

Please, Judy.

Various documents.

Policies, stocks, numbers of Swiss bank
accounts, addresses of our friends.

They're all in there. Yes, I see.

It's an enormous responsibility.

You're going to lie on me, sir.

Mm -hmm.

Oh, when you get to Geneva, will you
give that to my daughter?

Yes, sir.

Are the men nearly finished?

Yes, sir, Vincent Sedgwick.

Well, uh, goodbye, John.

You just keep your hands flat on that.

Well? Shoot.

Why don't you shoot me, McGill?

That's what you want, isn't it?

That's what you want me to do. You want
me to kill you so you'll be a martyr.

And it'll prove that there was a
conspiracy against you. Why, are you

I'm not crazy.

Just a man ready to die for his country,
as you were, McGill.

Drop the gun, McGill.

It's not all that heroic, I'm afraid.

See, the colonel's a very sick man.

Sick in body, sick in mind.

Sick enough to believe that death at the
hands of a former American agent...

Could revive his cause.

And near enough to death to be able to
afford the gesture.

What are you going to get out of it,
John?

Oh, insurance, political funds. We've
insured him quite heavily.

You're really something.

Well, I don't believe in lost causes.

Somewhere in the world I'll find another
Iquana.

So if you don't kill him, I must.

until the police get here.

Is he all right?

Yeah. I'll go get the police.

What about you?

I'll be okay. I'll be back.

For sure?

Yeah.

Gotta get on a suitcase.
