Dokola. Nishi Singapore guy.

All right, why me?

General, the only reason a member of Red
Chinese Intelligence would set up a

meeting like this... Is to ask you to
spy for us.

It's an ugly request, Mr. Rogers.

But I assure you, one made utterly
necessary if war, total war, is to be

averted. But why pick me?

A short but depressing history of an
American Foreign Service officer's angry

and useless efforts to change his
country's policies toward Vietnam.

It's all there, including your demotion,
and transfer from Hong Kong to New York

Sunday next.

So?

Your willingness to cooperate on your
return home may be the difference

life and nuclear destruction for the
entire human race.

I do not exaggerate.

Well, exactly what information is your
government after, General?

If you agree to work for us.

you will be informed by your contact on
your arrival in New York.

Mr. Rogers?

If I had intended to turn you down, I
wouldn't have come in the first place.

General.

Rogers.

If you succeed in this endeavor, you
will have earned the gratitude of all

mankind.

Good night, General.

The FBI.

A Quinn Martin Warner Brothers
production.

Starring Abram Zimplas Jr.

Also starring Philip Abbott.

Stephen Brooks.

With guest stars Patrick O 'Neill, Kevin
McCarthy.

Tonight's episode, The Spymaster.

You're late.

Sorry, Arthur. I pushed the plane as
hard as I could.

I don't think there's a particular
reason the State Department wanted me

recalled from Chicago.

I suppose.

That's just one of the things I want to
find out.

According to Rogers' report, this is
something big.

It's imperative that we know just what
the Chinese are after.

But what I don't understand is why... My
insistence on using our chief

inspector. I've got dozens of agents who
could pose as Rogers, do just as good a

job infiltrating the ring. I doubt that,
Arthur.

Interesting, isn't it?

With a little makeup, her skin here
could be made to look like Rogers' twin.

Where's Rogers now? He'll be flown out
of Hong Kong on Sunday as scheduled and

be kept undercover in Hawaii until this
matter is settled.

I'll have a complete file of his
background and personal idiosyncrasies

desk by 10 o 'clock.

Your first contact with General Howe's
agents will be in just three days.

You'll be met at the corner of 73rd
Street and 5th Avenue in New York.

Your contact will ask if you'd rather
walk or ride to the restaurant.

You'll answer that you prefer riding.

Is there anything else I can do for you?
No, I'll let you know.

Flight 577, electric jet flight should
not

stop for Washington.

How are you? Very well, thank you.

So are you.

Well, Victor, I've come over 8 ,000
miles.

You could be more cordial.

Well, didn't General Howard tell you
Lamarck, New York can be a very cold

The answer, Victor, is no.

No? I haven't been sent to replace you.

Oh, I'm so relieved.

Don't be a fool, Victor. Whether you
want any assistance with Rogers or

The General was quite explicit. Is there
anything else? Yes, he expects results,

and quickly.

You've been on this mission for a long
time, months, and so far you've

accomplished nothing.

Your failure to come up with the
information that General Howe requires

up our whole Asian timetable.

He's sure that Rogers can be trusted.

The general doesn't have to be sure. You
do.

You'll have the information within one
month.

Otherwise, I'm quoting.

Just quoting.

Nice dog.

Harvard 1940, international relations
major.

Sister's middle name.

Sister.

Well, I have the mole.

Sister.

Sister. How about sister?

That's right.

Medical history.

Pneumonia once when I was eight. I got
it on a station at the embassy in

Confined to bed for six weeks. Doctor's
name was Andre Riga.

Who's Angela Mortimer?

Engaged to her before the war.

And mustache.

Now, you have to let that set firmly.

Okay.

And she decided not to wait. She married
a fortune.

Saw her last in Saigon at a cocktail
party in March.

She seemed bored.

A little more dark on that mobile, I
think. Arthur.

What? Uh -huh.

That's very good.

It's great.

Excellent, in fact.

Cigarette? Yeah.

Rogers doesn't smoke.

A mistake like that could cost you your
life.

Any espionage network under the control
of General Howe is going to... All

right, you've said it.

I don't want to have to say it at your
wake.

I guess I'm just tired.

Yeah, you're going to need this.
Personal effects credentials.

You got your plane ticket?

First flight in the morning.

You know where to make your contact?

Sunday, 3rd and 5th.

Jim, you're going to be in charge of
keeping him under protective

You better take the train out tonight.

Have a good night's rest.

You're going to need it.

Cigarette?

I'm late.

Would you rather walk or ride to the
restaurant?

Well, I said I'd rather ride.

49 .2 seconds.

That's very pleasant.

Now what?

Relax.

Order a drink.

Anything in particular?

You're a big boy, Mr. Rogers.

Whatever you like.

Thank you.

Excuse me, Mr. Rogers?

Yeah. Telephone, sir.

Jim?

Hello?

Yeah?

I'll be right there.

If you'll excuse me.

and martini.

Need I say? No. Drive.

Rogers. Yes.

Is that really necessary?

No credentials?

Yes, sir.

You must be very tired. Very long trip
between New York and Hong Kong.

I apologize for this.

Cigarette?

No, no, thank you. I don't smoke, and it
has been rather... Adam Rogers got off

the plane in Hawaii.

There's no record of his having boarded
any other flight for either New York or

Washington.

You have three seconds to tell us how
you got here, if you are Rogers.

Well, I... You see, I worked unofficial
business in Honolulu until three in the

morning. There were no planes, you know,
at that hour, so I... I caught a ride

on an Air Force jet and arrived in New
York this morning.

If we decide to go along with you, the
girl will be in touch.

Give her your address and telephone
number. She'll be our liaison.

Pamela Hughes.

Very social.

No one will doubt that she's an entirely
appropriate friend for a State

Department official.

Enjoy your lunch.

Almost two days.

I don't know, Lou. Even if they are
playing it cool, I think the whole

getting kind of ridiculous, don't you?

They're not playing a period.

They ain't from Washington.

So far, neither of the men's
descriptions ring a bell.

As for the girl,

well, Ward vetoed putting her under
surveillance.

He wouldn't debate it.

Adam Rogers here.

Good, I'll see you then.

Pamela Hughes reminded me of our date.

2 .15 tomorrow, 1 .30 East 54th. Going
on to lunch from there.

And they were still in business.

Upstairs.

Over here. Over here.

Right here.

Come on.

I'm sorry it took so long to set up this
meeting, Mr. Rogers, but I'm sure you

understand we had to make sure that you
weren't suspect, that you weren't being

followed. Now, I assume your being here
means that you are ready to honor your

commitment to General Howe.

Perhaps. My final decision, of course,
will depend upon the type of information

you want and the risk involved, as I'm
sure you can understand.

Yes, of course.

Well, what we want you to get for us is
all the information and documentation

possible regarding the United States'
intentions in the Far East.

Should China invade India or send its
troops into North Vietnam?

In short, just how far will this country
let China go before risking nuclear

war?

Thank you all.

I'll have to have the answer now, Mr.
Rogers, today, and the information in

than a month.

There can be no delays, no stalling.

Well?

I'll do my best.

Good.

Now, when can we expect some concrete
information?

Well, it won't be easy, but I think I
can promise you some action fairly soon.

As a matter of fact, I have to be in
Washington in the morning, and I'll try

get things started then.

Right. Oh, our girl will keep calling
your apartment. That way we'll know when

you're back. Don't try to get in touch
with us. I understand.

Rogers.

In the event that you change your mind
and go to the authorities, well,

you know the Chinese.

Where's Arthur?

Oh, he's on the phone with Mr. Hoover.

And the report on Victor Allen?

Oh, it developed so far.

He was born in China, son of a
missionary, kicked out in the 30s for

-Japanese activities, Yale Law School,
42, three years in the Army, wounded in

Italy, discharged a captain.

Since then, he's been a fairly
successful patent lawyer, making

to Europe and the Far East.

Family, political organizations, clubs,
none. Friends, apparently none.

The short for the last 20 years, Mr.
Anonymous.

Well,

what's the verdict?

We're going to continue to play along
with the ring.

If we stick close, there's a good chance
we can learn a lot more about the

entire network.

So how soon can you get Mr. Rogers here
a briefing on what he can tell Alan

without jeopardizing national security?

This evening.

It'll take some doing to come up with
information which Alan will accept as

fresh intelligence, but I'll get right
on it.

I'll see you tonight then. Yeah, 8 o
'clock.

Oh, all right.

Why did you decide not to put Pamela
Hughes under surveillance?

I figured your friends were playing it
cautious.

They'd be looking for a move just like
that.

girl reach Rogers yet?

No.

I've got other news, Victor.

General Howe is on his way here.

He will enter the country secretly one
week from today.

Why, um, what reason did he give?

The Forsyth memo.

Foresight memo? What's that?

That's exactly the point, Victor. You
should have known about it and been

working to obtain it. If it hadn't been
for our agents in France, the General

still wouldn't even be aware of its
existence.

The memo was delivered by the United
States to all of its allies weeks ago.

It outlines a complete new policy
regarding what counter moves will be

the event of Chinese aggression in the
Far East.

This is what Rogers should have been
sent after specifically.

In other words, I've just got one week
to get the memo.

It's not much time, is it?

There is another thing I'd like you to
consider, Victor.

Why didn't Rogers, if he is Rogers,

volunteer this information when you told
him what we needed?

Surely he knew.

Had to know of its existence.

Red light.

You mind telling me where we're going?

I thought I told you on the phone
yesterday.

To celebrate your return.

It's ringing.

I

suppose

I'd be breaking the rules if I asked you
how you, uh... Got into this?

I do it for kicks.

Would you please?

Anything wrong?

Wrong?

Like what, Mr. Rogers?

You'll be met, Mr. Rogers.

Wait over there.

I feel compelled to tell you that I've
enjoyed our conversation enormously.

Oh, and do call me Adam.

A report.

How did you find out in Washington?

Nothing very dramatic.

A little early for that.

I can brief you on some broad policy
areas.

Broad policy areas?

Then?

Nothing on the, uh, Forsyth memo?

What about the Forsyth memo?

I'm surprised you know that.

I didn't myself until yesterday. It's
that secret.

You're carrying a gun because you think
I'm holding out.

No idea what I'm thinking.

You're a fool.

The Forsyth memo is one of the things I
came to tell you about.

If not the Forsyth memo, what do you
consider dramatic?

Specific knowledge of what it contains.

Or better still, a copy of it.

How long will it take you to get it?

Difficult to say.

I have to have it now.

Why the sudden urgency?

A couple of days ago, I had a month to
get whatever I could.

Now I have no time to get the
impossible.

Debbie, come.

You tell me.

Because I've grown rather fond of
living.

And before I set myself up for the
electric chair...

I want to know why I'm being forced to
act at such breakneck speed.

I've got to have it.

General Howe will be here in six days.

I'll do my best.

Very grateful, Rogers.

Nobody's arguing, Lewis.

It's worth the risk for you to stick
with it if we can nab General Howe

But how are you going to stall Allen on
the Forsyth memo for six days?

I didn't say it'd be easy.

I'll leave you five to one. He won't sit
still for double talk for half that

long. Considering the stakes, five to
one's a pretty good bet.

Go into hiding to escape from General
Howe while he still can.

And we're likely to lose Alan, the
general, and the whole ring.

Arthur, I can't give you a written
guarantee, but somehow I'll keep Alan on

long enough to find out where and when
the general's arriving.

All right, Lewis.

But I'm going to have every point of
entry into the country watched, just in

case your way turns out to be the wrong
way.

What are you talking?

Lou, just how are you going to hold off
Alan without arousing his suspicion?

Miss Hughes, Adam Rogers here.

I'm going to Washington for a few days.
I'll call you when I return.

I hope to have the information I
promised by then.

Goodbye.

Okay. I'll hold off Alan for the next 72
hours or so, but what about the rest of

the week?

I'll have the answer for that in 71
hours and 55 minutes.

Or so.

Sit.

Sit. That's it. Good girl.

Well?

I've just come from Roger's apartment.
There's still no sign of him.

Time's running out, Victor.

Don't you think maybe you should...
Should what?

Go down to Washington, see what's
holding Roger's up?

A little pressure might be in order. A
little pressure.

That's an amusing phrase. It's been...
Twenty years since I thought in terms of

a little pressure.

The girl just got him in.

He told her he's arranged to get the
item we wanted. All we need is $5 ,000

consummate the deal.

Any instructions?

Yeah. Get the girl.

Tell her to arrange a meeting with
Rogers tomorrow at lunch. Same

where they met you before.

You'll be the courier.

Circle the block and pick me up in about
five minutes.

Got you, sir.

The money is in the briefcase waiting
for you.

Still need a day or two, but tell Victor
I can almost guarantee the general a

pleasant reception.

I don't care whether you believe it or
not.

I'm not sure, but I think that Rogers is
under surveillance.

We all may be by now. Maybe, maybe. What
do you mean, maybe? Of course we may

be. You got a break when Davis spotted
the action in front of the restaurant.

Now, be smart enough to take advantage
of it. Who do you think the traitor is?

The girl, of course. If Rogers had
tipped off the FBI, I would have been

from the restaurant, not him.

Now, let's face it.

We have to abandon our plan.

Go into hiding.

And the girl?

The girl has to be paid off in full.

No, I'm too close to home. I'm not going
to throw everything away because of

your suspicions. It's because a single
car pulled away from the curb at the

wrong time.

And the girl, why kill her? She doesn't
even know who we are.

I'll never let her get close enough.

Even if the FBI did move in, what could
she testify to?

No.

No, I've got to go all the way. All the
way is probably to the death house.

But you're calling the shots.

do yourself a favor you can't be sure
how much that girl does or doesn't know

Roger.

They couldn't have spotted me.

If they did, it was just plain lousy
luck.

I'm just afraid the lousy luck may have
been the girls.

At least she kept me in the clear by
being suspect as well.

Hello?

Pamela Hughes is a double agent.

She's been working with us as an
informant for the past six months.

But she was never able to get into their
inner councils.

That's great.

Why didn't anybody tell me this?

Ward kept you in the dark because he
thought you'd play it more naturally if

didn't know.

I could have warned her.

Well, if you had warned her, you might
have shot the whole cover.

And blown the chance at the general.

Denies you the rotten business, Jim.

This is the phony copy of the Forsyth
Memo.

Mr. Hoover has given us the go -ahead to
use it as bait.

Now, you stick right here in Washington
and keep checking with Alan until you're

sure the General is here.

Then we make our move.

The decision of a U .S. girl.

It's going to be kept under loose
surveillance.

Arthur, urgent.

Ward?

Mm -hmm?

Us.

Right, I've got it.

General Howe left Hong Kong two days
ago.

He could have slipped into the country
already in spite of all our precautions.

You get in touch with Al and confirm the
general's presence.

Don't worry, I wasn't following.

Is that it?

I'll take it. Sorry. I said I'll take
it. Nobody gets the memo until I see the

General.

The money you gave me was strictly for
expenses.

I want to negotiate the final price
directly with General Howe.

Go ahead.

But I only have half the memo with me.

17 Mellenbach Road.

7 to all cars.

Subject's vehicle just started west on
Varick.

We're moving.

This is 7, turning west on 23rd Street.

4 to 7, clear.

7 to 12.

This is 12.

Go ahead.

Our boy's heading west again on 12th
Avenue.

We're all alone back here. Better move
in.

12 to 7.

We'll make the pickup at 38th Street.

Check. 7 clear.

Okay, 12's got it.

Drop on.

They've just turned onto the Westside
Expressway.

4 to 12, heading for the 79th Street
ramp. We'll take over there.

Roger, 4.

4 to 6 and 10.

We're coming to you.

Looks like they might be leaving town.
You better keep your eyes peeled.

All right, turn off the next exit.

Turn off.

Four to ten.

They just turned off at the 154th Street
exit.

Pick them up.

It was always you, wasn't it? It was
never the girl.

You were out of your mind.

Only a fool would account for the spy
who tried to force his way to General

Howe. And one thing you've proven,
whoever you are, is that you're not a

I'm almost sorry to have to kill you.

Since Lamont gave you the general... My
deal was with the general from the

beginning. And you never mentioned
money.

See you, boy.

All right, let's go.

Ten to four. They just got out of the
car at 159th. Walking toward the

dock.

Warehouse dock?

Everything seems to be all right. The
inspector was nonchalantly smoking.

Smoking?

Move in fast.

Repeat. Move in.

Let's go.

All right, hold it right there.

Greg, get a doctor for the inspector.

Are we okay?

Let me see that.

Doctor's on his way.

I don't smoke.

I heard you do.

17 Mellenbeck Road. Find a general.
Yeah.

Hello, Arthur.

Mr. Ward, you wouldn't believe this
man's luck.

Who wouldn't?

The grand jury just brought in an
indictment charging General Howe with

attempted espionage and illegal entry.

Lamont and Davis are going to be brought
to trial along with the others we

rounded up.

Yeah, with the help of the Hughes girl.

That's right.

By the way, Arthur, I'd kind of like to
thank her personally.

Oh?

Yeah, you know how to get a hold of her,
don't you?

Yeah, I know how to get a hold of her.

I guess that would be all right, don't
you think, Jim?

Yes, sir.

What about Victor Allen?

Nobody wants him.

Just like the job of burying him is
going to be left up to the government.

Yeah.

Thank you.
