Angela? Angela?

Operator. Get me Plaza 36098 in New York City.

Yes, I am calling from Arlington, Virginia.

Hello?

Lancer here.

Go ahead.

Channel D.

Inoperative. Direct report.

When the premier of Western Natumba visits the plant, they're going to

assassinate.

Lancer? Is that you?

Darling.

What happened?

Sorry, Angela.

Thought I'd lost them.

But they followed me.

Never mind.

I'll call the doctor. There's no way.

The phone is out.

They're outside right now.

It's pitch black outside there.

Maybe you can sleep across the roof. Come, I'll show you.

Careful.

They'll kill.

I had no place else to go.

I didn't want to involve you.

Let me take a look.

I can't see anything. It's too black.

But I can see your ceiling. I'm going to get a cordon and leave immediately.

No. No, you stay right here. Oh, please, let's not argue about it. You can't

drive in these conditions. I have to take you to a doctor.

Please.

Had he made any contact?

He started a message to his chief before I had a chance to break the connection.

That's too bad.

We'll have to make some immediate arrangements there.

Too bad.

No labels.

Nothing in his pockets except these extra clips.

Prints removed from the ends of his fingertips by surgery.

Assault force from WASP. What do you think their purpose?

To kill him?

With a little effort, Mr. Solo.

You might have taken that man alive to answer that question.

I'm sorry, sir.

I've taken three prisoners at ground level.

Have this replaced.

Hold the prisoners here, Mr. Koryakin.

Clear the room.

Come inside, Mr. Sullen.

Sit down.

Mr. Allison, the prisoners.

Ilya, look.

They are dead.

But how?

They broke through at the agent's entrance.

A vulnerable area.

Wasp has some pretty fair information about us. They knew that it took a white

badge to pass to level two.

They made the mistake, however, of not knowing about the chemical on the

of the receptionist.

And if she did not handle the badges, the alarm would go off.

How well did you know Mr. Lancer?

Not very well.

One of our agents, or was, judging by your use of the past tense.

Mr. Lancer was a very good agent.

Exceptional. Fine emotional balance.

Mature. I know how you value maturity, Mr. Allison.

Two months ago, Mr. Lancer secured a job as a handyman at the Global Chemical

Corporation.

You know the firm?

It's in Maryland.

The largest in the country.

It's also an eastern seaboard cover of WASP.

A few months ago, we discovered that the president of the firm, Mr. Andrew

Vulcan himself, is an officer of WASP. An hour ago, I had a direct phone call

from Mr. Lancer.

He didn't use his channel?

They'd exposed him while closing in. He said, and these were his exact words,

when the premier of Western Ottumba visits the plant, They're going to

assassinate... That's all?

He was cut off.

Apparently, they killed him.

Also, apparently, they didn't know exactly how much he told me.

So they were trying to kill you because Lancer passed some information to you.

Well, we can stop the assassination of the Premier. We can stop this attempt,

not the next one. We must also know why they want to assassinate the Premier of

a newly independent, very primitive African nation.

The Premier is over here on an economic mission.

He's in Washington, D .C. to inspect Vulcan's plant.

It could happen within 48 hours.

Take over Mr. Lance's contact, Channel D, and complete his mission.

Margaret Oberon, Channel D office.

It's a nice place to visit, but I wouldn't want to live here.

Thanks, my benefactor.

I was almost off for a weekend at Fire Island.

Now I'm assigned to you on a 24 -hour intermission complete basis.

Well, this label is too expensive for this to be a shrinkage disaster, so it

must be evolution.

I look to the future with new hope.

They may keep the girl off the beach, but she's going to get her suntan.

Well, this ain't going to slow down the population explosion, I'll tell you

that.

I'll need a transmission unit, Maggie.

The Washington, D .C. area, huh?

Take

this

improved A3 model.

Attach it to any electrical wiring system whenever you want to talk to me.

It has a 300 -mile range.

What have you got for me?

Not very much.

This just came in, the arrival of the Western Atumba delegation.

Those three men led the guerrilla warfare in the jungles of their country

seven years.

Last month, they achieved independence.

Ashuman is premier.

Nobuk, minister of war.

Sumaran, economics minister.

Andrew Vulcan keeps himself a very private person.

That's his plan in Maryland.

March out for the private army.

They aren't afraid to use those things.

How does he justify them?

They do some secret defense work.

That's a lot.

That's what you can dig out of that file.

Well, thank you, my little agent provocateur.

Good luck.

Oh, um, turn over often. I like mine medium rare.

Both sides.

Rattenberg College yearbook, 1949,

correct? Thank you.

They have the autopsy report on the prisoners who died this morning.

Let me guess.

The autopsy showed they swallowed something before the attack.

Capsules that dissolved hours later, releasing poison into their systems.

Whether they succeed or fail, they were dead men.

Wath probably told them that it was some sort of stimulant, something to quicken

their reflexes.

Who's in the yearbook?

I'm not sure yet.

This is newspaper clipping.

Made in 1949 with a picture of a sorority picnic.

Sorority?

Yes, it's a club for girls.

Now, there's a blow -up of a young man at the picnic. Obviously, Vulcan.

He's listed as graduating with a degree in engineering.

In the group, he appears to have his armor on a girl.

Exactly, but we don't know her name.

She's the one you use?

Vulcan apparently has wrapped himself in a protective cocoon. No friends, no

women who seem to mean anything to him.

Unapproachable.

But a dozen years ago, judging by that picture, he had a girl.

Oh. Here she is again.

Elaine May Bender of Middleton, New York.

Well, I... I just don't understand.

Nor do I, Elaine.

All I can tell you is that I had a call from my bishop.

Excuse me.

Yes, my name is Solo.

Reverend Anderson?

You've had time to talk to Mrs. Donaldson, I believe?

Talk, yes.

Understand, no.

Oh, I'm sorry.

Wait a minute. I'm sorry.

Well, all I can say to you is that the bishop asked me to vouch for Mr. Solo.

In all conscience, the best I can do is vouch for the bishop.

Goodbye, Elaine.

Oh, goodbye.

My superior is a very close friend of your reverend's bishop. I thought this

introduction might save you many doubts.

Doubts?

About what, Mrs. Solo?

There's a flight from Middleton to Washington, D .C., leaving tonight at 11

I want you to take that flight.

With me.

Oh, I have to do my hair. My husband and I are going out this evening.

Oh, this room is a mess.

What the devil sort of proposition is that?

Your maiden name was Bender. In 1949, you were a freshman at Ruttenberg

And you were, I believe the expression is, going steady with a boy named Andrew

Vulcan. Remember?

Andy!

Of course.

Well, I haven't seen him since then.

What of it?

Why didn't you marry him?

Well, I don't know. I guess I just didn't want to marry anybody then.

And besides, Andy was so serious.

And a little strange, too.

He had funny values. I mean, we were all ambitious, but he always wanted more

somehow.

Anyway... We broke up just before he graduated, and I haven't seen him since

then, except in the newspapers.

Yes, he heads a corporation started for him by Wasp.

Oh.

Who's Wasp?

We don't know.

Wasp might be a man, or a woman, or a committee that heads a secret

international organization, very powerful and very wealthy.

Wasp has no allegiance to any country, nor to any ideal.

It will embark upon any undertaking it may decide is in its own interest.

And where WASP succeeds, many, many people pay a terrible price.

And you, what do you do?

I'm an agent for an organization designated as the UNCLE.

UN... Oh, Uncle!

You know, I've heard of that, I think. I've read about that somewhere.

Now, your group wants to stop this... this wasp. Along with others.

Let's say that Uncle is set up for the protection of many people all over the

world. Oh.

Well, what's all that got to do with me?

I mean, I'm just a housewife with two children.

And a husband. Don't forget him.

Well, I assure you that although you must not tell your husband about this

matter, he will insist that you take that plane tonight.

What?

I have very little time.

To prevent the assassination of the leader of a new nation.

Now, we can place people all around Vulcan.

But they couldn't get through to him the way you could.

Only you might get close enough, quickly enough, to be of any help.

But I couldn't. It's preposterous.

No, I won't even consider it.

Whatever happened to red lipsticks? You know, this is a fraud against men.

Why? Under the new lipsticks are the same old lip.

Well, that's a comfort.

Now, let's get down to business.

Did your husband insist?

Yes, he did.

Really. Getting me appointed special delegate to the National Parents

in Washington.

Well, conveniently, the original delegate became ill.

I swear I don't know what I'm doing here.

As of now, you are Elaine Van Ebbry of Northridge, Oklahoma.

Well, what's wrong with being just me?

Well, because it will help if you're a little more important than you.

You see, Elaine Bender made a brilliant marriage.

You're a very wealthy woman now.

Widow. Oil wells.

All of the identification you're going to need is in here. You can transfer

personal things into this.

Now, when you turn in your checks at the airport, you'll get new luggage.

Here are airline tickets, round trip from Oklahoma City.

Here's a picture of your home with a detailed layout of the interior.

Here are some lists of your friends.

Your neighbors, your relatives, a list of your holdings, bank accounts, etc.

Oh, I'm sorry.

You're going to have to give me your ring.

Why? Well, because Elaine Van Every would wear much more expensive ones.

Don't worry. I'll take good care of you.

I want you to start memorizing that stuff because I'm going to give you a

extensive test on its contents before we land.

Thank you, Professor.

When do I take my final exam?

In Washington.

When you meet Vulcan.

I think there must be something to this mental telepathy.

Don't you?

For 60 seconds, I've been sending you a message to wake up. I have your

breakfast in the other room.

Look, I don't mind you climbing into my brain, but will you please get out of my

bedroom?

Oh, uh, French toast must be eaten while hot.

I'm sorry to be using your cup, but the lovely ladies of the conference might

have strong feelings about a delegate ordering two breakfast settings in her

bedroom.

Just orange juice for me, please.

That's all I ever have for breakfast.

You always eat a very large breakfast, Mrs. Van Avery, and quite sensibly, too.

Yes, well, I'll bet she's fat.

Adults overeat in this country.

Now, Danny and Flory, they're my children.

They'll eat anything that doesn't... No!

Falcon is having a large party this evening at his estate near Arlington.

As of 8 o 'clock last night, you were on the guest list.

A lot of important people are going to be there.

The party from Western Natumba, for instance.

It's all real, isn't it? Why not?

You're rich.

I recommend the third dress from the left.

It's been worn once before at a presidential soiree.

You'd be very flattered to know who wore it.

Well, it's beautiful, but it's all black. Black has never been a good color

me.

It hasn't?

That's right. I'm supposed to be in mourning, aren't I? I forgot.

Well, you mustn't forget.

I've told you about the organization we're dealing with. They kill people the

way people kill flies.

A careless flick of the wrist.

A reflex action.

I'll protect you in every way possible, but in the end, your safety depends on

you. So don't forget who you are or what you are.

I won't forget again.

All right.

The premiere is to inspect the plant tomorrow, so that gives us only a few

to stop the assassination.

What am I supposed to do at this party?

Just be there. Let Vulcan make the approaches.

Will you be there?

I'll be just another guest.

At the party, you are to treat me as a stranger.

Well, what if I learn something from Andy? I mean Vulcan.

Well, if anything there puzzles you or seems urgent, signal me.

Our hairdresser will be here at five o 'clock.

I've checked out everyone on this floor. They're all tourists, so it's safe to

stay in your room until nine.

Then go down to the west entrance.

A chauffeur and a limousine will be waiting there for you. You don't

anything, do you?

I'd better not.

Elaine May Bender.

Elaine May Donaldson.

Elaine May Van Every.

Well, look at you.

Good evening.

I'm Gracie Latterman, acting as hostess for Mr. Vulcan this evening. And you

must be?

Mrs. Elaine Van Every.

A friend of mine. Oh, yes. Oklahoma.

Oil, wasn't it? And you're just in town for a few days? Let me introduce you to

a few people.

Oh, Charlie.

Over here. He's a senator.

Friends from Western Natumba.

The Premier, Mr. Sekouer Shuman.

How do you do? Minister of War, General Moltenovic. And the brilliant Minister

of Economy, Mr. John Francis Sumarin.

Elaine? Is this your first visit to the States?

Excuse me, won't you? I must get back. So many undesirables try to crash an

affair like this.

Well, to answer your question, I graduated from Dover University some

This is my first visit since then.

The general has never been out of our country before.

And I have been here, there, and everywhere.

You have a lovely nation.

But for my temperament, I prefer the English way of life.

You don't become an English gentleman merely by putting milk in your tea.

My friend Malte confuses manners with morality.

He could learn a bit by reading Lord Chesterton.

I imagine you all have much more on your minds than manners.

Creating a new nation must be a terribly difficult undertaking.

Difficult? It's an impossible undertaking.

However, you have an admirer.

I never thought Mr.

Balkin was so shy.

It is.

Andy!

Look at you. I don't believe it. In a tuxedo. You know, there was a time when

couldn't get him to wear even a sports jacket.

I've been your old friend.

Shall we give them a chorus of the Rattenberg Rally? Oh, let's spare them

I've been reading about you. You've done so well, and I'm pleased for you. And

you. You're married, of course.

Well, my husband died two months ago in an accident.

Carl Van Every. You might have heard of him.

I am sorry.

I'll be in Manhattan next Thursday.

Where will you be?

In Manhattan.

And in the book.

Until then... Oh, I'm terribly sorry.

No damage, friend. Hazards of war.

I find myself remembering what it feels like to be moved by the look of a woman.

It's a luxury I haven't permitted myself in many years.

Well, I think you've missed a lot then.

Have you found whatever it was you always wanted?

Yes, but now that I've seen you again, I remember wanting even more.

Go slow, Andy.

There's been a gap of more than ten years.

You can't just leap across it.

Well, then let me back up and approach again.

In a different manner.

What's the matter?

Oh, nothing. Just to see some party crashers.

Wouldn't be a Washington party without them.

Ah, there you are.

I wanted to say goodnight.

It's time I got down to the plant to check the arrangements for tomorrow's

Thanks for coming, Alfred. Elaine, this is Mr. Just, one of our finest

engineers.

How do you do? Pleasure.

Oh, by the way, did you notice that our friend's uncle is here?

He's just introducing himself to our friend. Yes, I want to be sure he

join us at the plant. He'd only spoil things.

I'll see to that.

And on your way out, would you ask our friend to be careful of what he says to

his uncle? I'd like him to avoid an argument.

I'll do that.

Good night. Good night.

One of those amusing little family feuds, but I don't want my party spoiled

fight. Oh, it's such a lovely party.

I like the premier, Mr. Ashuman.

Yes, I'm going to build a plant for him in Western Otumba, duplicate of my plant

in Maryland. That's why they're going to inspect it tomorrow.

It's kind of cold out here.

Have you learned to dance since school?

I've taken lessons, but I've had no desire to use them until just this

Tell me, are you having much success in attracting industry to your country?

Oh, it's very difficult. Very difficult indeed.

Oh, everyone is sympathetic but reluctant to act. They want a lot of

First we throw the colonizers out.

And then we come to them hat in hand, begging them to come back.

Don't oversimplify, old boy. It's one thing to enter as masters and quite

another to enter as investors.

It's quite a coup having Vulcan's plant in our country.

With the manufacture of synthetics, we'll have the raw materials base

for the structuring of light industries.

Well, if the three of you work for the growth of your nation as well as you

fought for its independence, I'm certain you'll succeed.

We will work together, Mr. Solo.

Where the needs of our people are concerned, we are brothers.

Well, good luck then.

Excuse me?

No, no, no, no, no. You see, you're...

pushing when you should be guiding. Excuse me. You see, it's all in the

hand. Like it's flat, palm spread right beneath your partner's right shoulder

blade, arm rigid, and then when you turn, she follows.

Oh, by the way, I'm cutting in.

Laugh, I just said something hilarious to you.

Now, you did want to tell me something.

Vulcan knows you with Uncle.

He told someone here to keep you away from the plant.

Well, they are well informed, aren't they?

With whom did he discuss this?

Oh, an Englishman.

His name was Alfred Gist.

They must know all about us. That woman over there, the hostess, she was on the

plane with us. You remember all that business about the lip?

For years, I've been telling Gracie to cut down on her makeup.

We arranged for her to get the job with Vulcan.

A job of limited use to us, I'm afraid.

Who is this Alfred Gist?

He, uh... He's over there, talking to the Western Natumba delegation.

He's one of Austin's engineers.

And he indicated that he used to warn someone else here to be careful of what

they said to you.

Did you notice who Alfred spoke to after he left you? Oh, he didn't talk to

anyone until just now.

I see. Well, I want you to do something for me. I want you to... Squeeze a drop

or two of this into the premier's drink, but don't get caught.

What will it do?

Well, it'll probably save his life.

Thank you.

You are a beautiful dancer.

I know.

You see?

Nothing to it, old boy.

What a charming man.

At least he thinks so.

Channel D is open.

I have a report for number one of section one. Acknowledge reception,

Report for number one of section one.

Wasp has me spotted. It's possible, correction probable, that a member of

Western Atumba delegation is with Wasp. Under the circumstances, I've taken

steps to prevent assassination attempt tomorrow.

We'll confirm if successful.

Acknowledge reception, please. And turn off that sun lamp before you boil over.

Acknowledged. And don't worry, I'll keep cool till you get back.

After all...

There's a locked steel door between me and the outside world.

Why don't you wait until Thursday, darling? You won't have to break down

door.

I warned you. You drive yourself too hard.

Did someone call the doctor?

The doctor's on his way.

I'll get your car, sir.

Channel D is open.

Report for number one of section one. Acknowledge, please.

Report for number one, section one.

Can confirm that Premier will not be in condition to visit Vulcan's plant

tomorrow. Therefore, assassination attempt temporarily delayed.

Repeat, temporarily delayed. Acknowledge, please.

Acknowledged.

Where are you now?

Driving along an open country road, enjoying a cool breeze.

Don't you wish you were here?

Or are you alone?

Drink your milk.

I will.

My name is Napoleon Solo. I hope you don't mind filters.

How do you do?

How do you do?

Light me, please.

Why are you smiling at me?

Because a funny thing happened to me on the way to my hotel.

You.

Don't shoot me.

It would take all the fun out in the evening.

If I wanted to kill you, I would have done it before.

We were driving, then you would have gotten hurt.

Now we're standing still.

Where would I be carrying a weapon?

It could be down.

If you have any doubts, you better search me.

Well, am I hiding anything?

No, I can't honestly say that you are.

Which brings me to the question. What is a nice girl like you doing in a place

like that?

Lanter wants to see you.

Oh? I know. You thought he was dead.

He has been wounded and he needs your help to get away.

Well, how did he know I was here?

The receiver on his pocket radio is still working. He can hear, but he can't

send. He has been listening to all your calls.

Where is he?

On the move. He hasn't dared to stop.

But he'll meet us at my place.

I know what you're thinking.

That I could be one of them.

That this could be a trap.

Well, I can't prove that it isn't.

Or that I am Lancer's friend.

He needs you desperately.

You can believe me or not.

Well, I'll have to find out.

You move beautifully.

If this were a trap, you would certainly be able to kill me before you went

down. No question about it.

You live all the way out here all alone?

On and off.

You live here on and off?

I live alone on and off.

Oh. And at the moment?

I'm living alone.

What about Lancer?

I haven't quite made up my mind about him.

In the meantime, I don't invite gentlemen out here.

And here I am. These are special circumstances.

Oh, then I'm not to get any ideas about you bringing me here.

I didn't say that.

That was terribly rude.

Sorry.

Where's Lance?

Oh, he said that we are to meet him here at midnight.

We are much too early.

May I come along?

I tell you, sitting alone in the gloom makes me a little nervous.

I would have never thought it.

It's that way.

After you.

You know, I've often felt that I was born several centuries too late.

I've always admired those cavaliers that used to go slashing their way down the

corridors.

Are you always this suspicious, or is it me?

Well, I'll tell you, I have a nervous grandmother back home in Topeka, Kansas.

I'm afraid I've inherited some of her genes.

Oh, are you from Kansas?

Of course, isn't everybody?

Who goes in first this time?

Who do you want to go in first?

You. Of course.

I tell you, old granny, she was really unbelievable. She used to make everybody

so uncomfortable.

She was always stalking around and peering into corners, locking

doors, making sure that no one would steal in behind her.

And would you believe it? Every night before Granny went to sleep, she used to

slash away underneath the bed with a poker, looking for growlers.

Was she ever lucky enough to find one?

No, no, that was Granny's constant frustration.

But she never quit looking.

And I imagine that every time she entered the room, she would look through

closet just to make sure nobody was hiding there.

Well, of course not. Now, who'd do a crazy thing like that?

I think you misunderstood your grandmother's problem.

Probably she was merely looking for someone to help her with the difficult

zipper. Would you?

Well, now, that's not a great problem. That opens very easily.

You've been practicing.

Now, what would you like me to change into?

Oh, anything but a boy.

What?

Never mind.

Some good work here.

Yours? I managed to make a living at it.

Someday I will have to make a study of you.

Nude.

Lancer's taking his time.

Yes. Isn't that lovely of him?

You are sure he's coming?

Oh, he'll be here, I promise you.

Perhaps he's having trouble finding the place.

Oh, I doubt it. Why should he?

He's never been here, you said.

I gave him very specific directions.

He'll have no trouble.

No trouble.

I don't miss him right now.

Do you?

Well, I tell you, I don't have many virtues.

But patience doesn't rank at all.

I don't like to be kept waiting.

You sound so cold now.

Well, as you said when I came in the house, I'm a rude man.

You weren't rude a few minutes ago.

As a matter of fact, you were beautiful.

And I enjoyed you in return.

So, uh, we're even.

We don't owe each other anything, do we?

I agree.

You don't have to wait any longer.

There is Lancer.

Why doesn't he come in?

Because he doesn't know for sure that you're here.

Call to him.

You called him.

But he wants you. I told you he will not come in unless he knows that you are

here. Well, you tell him I'm here.

No, I told you he will not come unless you call him.

Angela, open the door.

Anything wrong?

I'll get our car.

You'd never catch him.

Doesn't make any difference anyhow.

Better clean up that mess back at the house. I gotta report to Mr. Vulcan now.

But Vulcan ordered us... I tampered with our friend's car before going up to the

house. Just as a precaution.

When that speedometer hits 50 miles an hour, it's gonna contact a thin little

wire, and our uncle's gonna go sleepy -bye forever.

You've got half an hour to freshen up, then I'm coming back for you.

Oh, I wouldn't feel right going on to a nightclub with Mr. Schumann being taken

ill like that.

Oh, believe me, I wouldn't dream of leaving his side if it was anything

The doctor told me it was just a minor upset.

He said the premier would awaken soon and you'd have to stay in bed and rest

24 hours.

Well, I must get some sleep, too. I have to get up early in the morning.

Elaine, I want all of your time.

Don't squander it on anybody else.

I can't!

I don't want to. I mean, it's all just too fast.

I'm not really... I'm not going to lose you again.

I did that nicely.

This is the A3 model.

The improved model. You see?

And this contained an X -38 automatic, also improved, now at the bottom of the

river.

What are you so upset about? You're doing better than I am.

I don't think any of this is funny.

You don't? Having me put those drops in the Premier's drink without even telling

me they were... You thought it was poison.

Elaine, those drops will only make him feel ill. They'll have no permanent

effect. When he wakes up, he can go back to the party.

He wouldn't be very comfortable, but he couldn't go back.

Well, I don't care. If you didn't want him to go out to that plant, you should

have told him that someone was going to try to kill him.

A Schumann needs Vulcan to build a chemical plant in his country.

He needs it like food and drink. It's survival to him.

Right now, he thinks that Vulcan is the greatest man alive, and I can't do

anything to prove different.

I can't tell how they mean to kill him or even why.

But those drops bought us time to find proof.

Now, with tomorrow's inspection postponed, we'll... It hasn't been

It hasn't. I was there. I heard them.

No Vulcans tomorrow, and I'll inspect the plant tomorrow.

And he insisted.

Vulcan insisted?

Without the Premier?

Yes. He said it was important.

Now what's the matter? Schumann won't be along, so it's all right.

No, it's not all right.

There's something about that plant.

And I've got to find out what it is tonight.

When Vulcan gets back, get him to show you the plant tonight.

But he wants to take me to a nightclub. And you would rather see the plant,

flatter him, admire him and the empire he's built.

Well, I do admire him, and I don't believe all those terrible things you've

me about him.

He just isn't like that.

Elaine, if that blood you just washed off my face doesn't impress you, then I

would suggest that you go down to the river tomorrow and watch them fish out

what's left of my car.

Oh, I don't know what to believe any longer.

And I don't want to have anything more to do with all this. I won't.

You know, you forgot something, Mr. Solo.

When you said that I might stir up some old emotions in him,

You forgot that he might stir up some old emotions in me.

You're afraid?

Of course I'm afraid.

You bet I'm afraid.

But not of Vulcan.

She's the one you're afraid of, isn't she?

Look at how well she wears the clothes.

And the jewels.

She mixes with important people.

She enjoys meeting them.

The excitement of a Washington party.

But Elaine Donaldson has no place here. Has she?

She'll have to go home.

Back to being an ordinary housewife.

You're afraid that when the time comes...

You won't be able to walk away from what you see in that mirror.

You don't believe that.

All right, when you get down to the lobby, ask them to buy you some

Stall them there for 15 minutes.

No.

Ready, darling?

Yes.

Operator, get me the airport.

Vanguard Air Charter Service.

It's Mr. Vulcan.

Now, you must admit, this is a unique way of entertaining a beautiful woman. I

don't mind.

Gives me a chance to get caught up quickly on what you've been up to all

years.

Very well. The tour begins.

Now there you see two of our largest reactors.

Each one turns out 20 ,000 pounds an hour.

Here are our loading platforms.

Daily we ship hundreds of tons of plastic components by rail to all parts

country.

These are our research developments and new products buildings.

In these vats are chemicals used in the new plastic compounds.

Here, in effect, is where we store the future.

I'll show you some results in the new products area.

He's impressive.

What's behind that door?

That contains a highly complicated reactor used in the infusion of new

under tremendous pressure.

Products are very experimental, highly unstable.

There's always the danger of an explosion.

I hate to admit it, but I'm exhausted.

There's only another 3 ,000 or 4 ,000 acres to go.

Well, I did ask for it, didn't I?

I like that.

I like that you're interested in what I do.

But this is of no importance whatever to me. What's important is you.

Look!

What are they doing?

Get the dogs over there and call security.

You wait inside. I'll be right back.

Just finished.

Someone on the grounds.

It's been as quiet as a grave here. Lovely night for work. Here, look.

Just a hairline.

Very neat job.

If you're finished, let's clear out of here and seal this room off until

tomorrow. We have to find our intruder.

parachute brought down, sir.

A diversion.

Why? To allow somebody to get to the reactor.

And I led him to it.

I want to double check for any place where an intruder could hide. Any place.

Mr.

Vulcan wants you.

When we get to that car, get down on the floor in the back. I may have to crash

through the gate.

All right.

Pardon me for not getting out of the car.

Whatever it was you gave me has left me still feeling a bit weak.

We only meant to help you. What are you doing here?

It was only as I fainted that I realized that it was you.

who had handed me my drink.

When I awoke and was told that my good friend, Mr. Balkan, had brought you here

tonight, well, I hastened to warn him immediately.

But you don't understand. They mean to kill you.

I think we all understand now.

Too late, I believe, Mr. Solo.

You see, no one intends to kill me.

It's Jumaran and Nobuk who have to die.

Are there signs of any others? No.

Just these two.

Hold it!

I prefer Mr. Sulla without bullet holes in him.

Why should it matter? For several reasons.

The first one being that they would die too quickly.

You'll find it's a lovely place to spend the night.

And it's soundproof.

Come over here, Mr. Solo. You're about to be chained to a pipe.

Your discomfort will last approximately an hour and 45 minutes. When we leave,

the room will fill with steam.

Death will come rather slowly, but then you're a patient man, Mr. Solo. And you

must have been patient, Mr.

Schumann, to have posed as a patriot all those years.

While you set your country up for Wasp to take over? Wasp is my country.

Well, so Wasp achieves respectability.

Congratulations, Mr. Vulcan.

With WASP, the government, and with all privileges attendant, diplomatic

immunity, industrial potential, armed forces at our disposal, we achieve a

deal more than respectability, Mr. Solo.

A no -book in Samara, and they would oppose it.

They are two dedicated, intensely patriotic men who will emerge as

victims of an unfortunate accident while negotiating ways to better the lot of

our people.

I will erect statues to their martyrdom, mourn their loss, rule in their names.

The explosion should take place at nine o 'clock tomorrow morning. You will

return here and arrange for their bodies to be discovered in the fire which

follows.

You'd best leave through the tunnel.

Sorry for you, madame.

Good night, chums.

Sorry. You were very clear about the risks involved.

I understood them and I accepted them.

Now, you mustn't blame yourself.

Well, of course I don't blame myself. It had to be done.

I've got to break this ceiling compound to get us down from here.

the most beautiful woman there.

hold yourself up there?

I'll manage.

All right, gentlemen, we'll take a closer look.

Whoever comes in first, they'll see you hanging there.

That may give me just a moment I'll need.

Gentlemen, I think you'll find this interesting. I'm going to put the

through a typical pressure cycle.

Get out of there, quick.

Who are you?

I'm going up there. Go on.

Oh, yes.

Thank you.

No regrets about Mrs. Van Every?

No regrets.

Maybe just one.

There's a gallop ball at the United Nations next week.

This is an invitation for you and your family. There's a suite reserved for you

at the Waldorf. An exquisite gown.

Not black will be waiting for you. And the loan of the jewelry and the

hairdresser.

Well, you did say that you wanted your family to see you the way you looked

night.

Thank you, but no.

Now, I had my big moment last night when I was... Well, maybe something I always

dreamed I might be.

But it was a dream, a memory.

It has no right to be anything else.

I'm content to go home right now.

A mother would never come home from a trip without presents.

This is a doll.

And a build -it -yourself radio.

And for him, a sweater.

His size, I absolutely guarantee it.

Thank you.

You do think of everything.

Aren't you getting off, Mr. Solo?

There'll be an hour delay before we return to New York. You could stretch

legs. Would you like some coffee?

No, no, no.

Something to eat.

Is there anything I can do for you?

Well,

as a matter of fact...
