Ongo.

Alante.

And Berman Pine?

Ongo.

And Rickles.

Yes, Chino. Telephone, Contessa.

It's Signor Vitello, Contessa.

For me, here?

I must apologize, Contessa.

I can't imagine... It'll give me time to recover my breath. You can take it in

the main hall.

Well, Chino, what do you think?

Am I improving?

Ah, well, Contessa, fencing is an Italian art, and you're English.

But I do know that Signor Vitello thinks you have no more to learn.

Flattery, Chino. That is the Italian art, and you have lived here too long.

countess, sir.

Who sent you?

I want to know who sent you to kill me

Bye bye.

perfect evening.

Coffee and Calvados.

The end of a perfect evening?

So soon, Paul.

Why don't you pamper me a little?

What are you going to do?

I'm going to relax while you tell me the story of your life.

My story is very simple.

You've heard it a thousand times before.

That's true.

But I've never heard it from you.

Salut. Chin chin.

If I hadn't broken the heel of my shoe... As I was leaving the office...

never have met them.

And talked.

Got my shoe repaired.

And drank Pernault.

Had dinner.

And arrived back here.

Alone together.

If there's one thing I know, it's the flavor of Normandy Calvados.

But you drank it.

Mm -mm.

You did.

Hello,

Caroline.

Thanks for the warning. The same thing just happened to me.

Did you warn Harry yet? Not yet. I've been getting no answer, but he must be

contacted.

Locate Harry and tell him to meet us there.

Right. Ciao. Ciao, Caro.

Still no answer from his line.

Look, I want to know who sent you and I want to know why.

Are you offering me a deal?

No deal.

And yet you expect me to talk?

That's too naive.

I don't think so. You're old enough to know the score.

Okay, you've got a captive audience. What are you trying to say?

Who said anything about captive?

I mean, you're free to go whenever you like.

Go back to the man who sent you and tell him you didn't quite make it.

Or wasn't the possibility of failure part of your contract?

You can't scare me.

I could explain.

You go back to him and cry on his shoulder and tell him you tried, failed

were asked politely to leave.

Then you know exactly what he'll ask, don't you?

He'll ask how much you collected to let Paul off the hook.

Then he'll put out a new contract for murder with your name at the top.

It's been a great evening.

Had a lot of laughs. Now, see yourself out.

If I tell you what I know... No bargains, no promises.

Who is it? I don't know his name.

We met at a bar in London.

He's a regular there.

Suki, what happened?

Where's Harry?

They held me hostage.

He had no choice.

Very nice.

Just tell the others to hold on a moment.

Yes, Mr. Howard.

Morning, Mr. Rule.

Mr. Rule, or may I call you Harry?

I'm sorry the boys were a little rough on you last night.

You can't hear me, Mr. Rule.

I can hear you.

Good.

Now, I require a complete list of the whole protector organization.

Think it over.

I'll contact you later for your answer.

You can have it now.

Negative.

Someone tries to kill you.

This girl here has a go at me.

And now we find they've grabbed Harry.

Yes, well, perhaps Harry, you and myself are not the only targets.

And the last week, two protectors have died.

One in a car crash in Tokyo, the other on a case in New York.

Yes, I know. They put it all together.

And it's beginning to look as if whoever it is is after the whole protectors

organization. Uh -huh.

No lead yet on your phony Italian fencing master. Disappeared without

Which leaves you, my dear.

And you haven't told us very much, have you?

Briefed anonymously in a London bar.

25 % deposit, the rest on completion.

How are you supposed to collect the money once you've done the job, of

told you, I don't know.

All I had to do was to send the unsigned postcard of the Eiffel Tower to the

bartender. Well, we sent that card from Paris last night.

I think you better check to see if it's arrived.

What'll you have?

Scotch.

First time here?

Yes. With eye, please.

I see I'm not your only foreign visitor.

Oh, we had them from all over the world.

Where'd you come from?

Paris. Here, you see this one here, with the Eiffel Tower?

It's from my hometown.

Came this morning.

From a friend?

They forgot to sign it.

Tell me, who owns this place?

Mr. Howard.

Jason Howard.

He's got a lot of interests, I understand.

Garages, clubs, one or two factories.

Well, thanks. Here, keep it.

Thank you, sir.

Phone.

Nope. Nope.

Nope.

And this one, I think.

Contact their agents, find out what they want, and offer them off.

I'm sure it's him.

Problem is, the postcard's here, too.

Then what does that make our friend, Suzanne?

You fool, you're no better than a girl.

All right, get to work on Harry Rule.

Show me you at least know how to make a man more cooperative.

Mr. Rule, I want to change your mind about that protector's list.

Or do we continue the treatment?

If I change my mind, you'll be the first to know.

That's a promise.

I want that list.

Stay close and nothing will go wrong.

Look, they sent the postcard.

They see you together, they'll think I've gone over to your side.

That's right.

Waiter, a bottle of your best champagne, please.

Anyone you know?

No.

It's a pity that I didn't see the driver who tried to run me down.

But I didn't.

So that's why I need you with me, my little Suzanne.

As a bait.

You know, we're stirring the hornet's nest.

I've always found it a very dangerous but productive approach.

If

the

champagne's so bad, why don't you order scotch?

Maybe they have a nice Normandy Calvados.

A barman.

Will you excuse me for a moment?

You hate getting to my make -up.

Don't be long or I'll come looking for you.

He forced me to bring him here. You sent the card, the signal.

He sent it. I had no choice.

What is it? I don't think the idea of turning Queen's evidence appealed to

friend. You mean we've lost her?

I mean we've been double -crossed by the only lead we have.

Keep that car inside, but don't let them know they're being followed.

Mr. Rue, I'll ask you for the last time.

I'll give you five minutes to reconsider.

And then?

We'll try once more to persuade you that this time either you or your body will

break.

I've given him five minutes.

Start at precisely 11 .15. And this time, don't stop.

As far as you go. Mr. Howard is going to like this.

Straight ahead.

Look for Harry.

Well, my dear Contessa.

My first failure.

I never really did approve the Italian fencing idea, too showy. I would have

thought so.

Where's Harry Rule?

Oh, nearby.

I think you're less a failure, more a temporary setback.

Yes, I'm very glad you decided to come, Contessa.

You see, it'll make things very much easier for me.

Oh, I should hate to be responsible for that.

Your friend Harry's a very...

Stubborn man. Stubborn, arrogant, conceited. Shall I go on? Where is he?

He refuses to supply me with a complete list of the members of your protector

organisation. Which you need.

Yes. To fulfil a big contract.

A contract to kill.

To my knowledge, the biggest ever.

Your clients must have a lot of money. Not so much, since you began your

activities. I feel very heard about it. All of them, in many countries.

Are you suggesting the international crime circuit has put up the money to

us out of action?

I was very flattered that my organisation was chosen.

You mean they finally got together to agree on something?

Yes, Contessa.

Nothing less than the systematic destruction of your protector network.

Mr Rule, I think I've got someone here who'll make you change your mind.

Well, it's nice to hear a friendly voice.

Where are you?

I think I'm packed in a packing case, probably underneath the steam hammer.

Where are you holding him?

You're too late.

Harry?

Harry!

You okay?

Oh, yes, I'm fine.

Harry, can you hear me?

Yeah. Can you hear me?

Yeah. Have you any idea where you are?

No.

Well, look, keep talking. Just keep talking.

War scored seven years ago.

We must be close. They haven't got a range of more than half a mile.

There or there?

We'll never make it in time.

Gino.

Harry. Harry, are you all right?

Yeah.

Nothing that a good orthopedic surgeon in three months on the critical list

won't cure.

Will someone get me out of here?

We're on our way.

In the...

Thank you.
