what's wrong with them I can't say you

mean you don't know or you won't tell me

Well a matter of policy my dear sir air

crew are discouraged from making medical

diagnosis for example only last week we

were alerted that a foreign passenger a

plumpish woman was suffering from severe

cramp and to have a stomach pump at the

ready an hour after the plane landed she

gave birth to twins that's embarrassing

who they are I'm no doctor but I don't

think he's having

twins tou sh Mr KY it appears that your

friend has collapsed

about the same guy Steven Cooper in the

Manan that doesn't make sense Cooper's

scene of the crime would it surprise you

trouble than we have now when did you

arrive a couple of hours ago where's

coper in the hospital they took him off

the plane a pretty sick boy I'm very

sorry to hear

that well now we've got him in hospital

might I suggest we have his head

examined while drilling was going on it

puzzled us white Cooper was always

flying back to the Riviera so we made

some inquiries we got wind he was

chasing a woman that was no wind Foster

that was a tornado so I've heard she's

not exactly unknown on the Riviera take

it easy forer they got married oh what

my mistake well let's get down to

business shall

we it's bad luck for you kenned a

British independent is pulling out of

the deal our borders decided to drop the

South warar option what they expect to

hit the jackpot on the first nickel

there's 10,000 square miles to be

explored our experts have made a

thorough study they can't find a smell

of oil why don't they hear what Cooper

has to say he should be out of the

hospital in the morning I don't think he

could change our minds it's the last

coring the last thousand ft that

convinced us we're not prepared to

invest another Penny down there but that

needn't stop you chaps from going ahead

don't worry nothing's going to stop us

chaps

garden English variety how

Splendid how could you bister while the

mest suspicion closed down the airport

disrupting schedules causing enormous

inconvenience to everyone concerned

including myself I spent my atar

lunchtime trying to pacify the airline

authorities in fact banister I promis

them your head if you ever display such

irresponsibility again my action was

justifiable the rat was found under a

freight plane that had just arrived from

Hong Kong there was every likelihood

that it was a carrier of disease but

really oh shut up

bister in future when you think you

spotted an infected Oriental rat that

might fraternize with our London rats

make sure it is one and not just Mickey

Mouse I mean having promise them a

plague in London see that you give it to

house detective I warn you we he on

government

Authority this is too absurd

[Music]

I am delighted to see you do enjoy

yourselves I am yanovich please forgive

my hted staff now what can I do for you

we've already wasted enough valuable

time Mr Evanovich with your permission

I'll make just one announcement to you

and your guests asz you wish

[Music]

ladies and gentlemen I'm sorry to break

up this delightful party but it's my

disagreeable duty to inform you on

behalf of the Department of Health that

a Mr Cooper the husband of a lady who

was here tonight has contracted small

pox I gather that some of you are aware

that small pox is the most contagious of

all diseases our only safeguard against

this plague is vaccination not only

primary contacts with the patient but

contacts of contacts my colleague and I

have come here this evening prepare to

vaccinate you here and

now please will the ladies kindly remain

here and the gentleman assemble in the

hall thank you Jamon I'll do the ladies

here

[Music]

Dr Blake would you sign clearance for

the plane please

sir humate these quarters next then the

amance you

on thank

you wouldn't you prefer it on the thigh

where the scar won't be seen what makes

you think it won't be

seen what

[Music]

thank

you what a cop his chances I wouldn't

like to venture an opinion but he was

vaccinated just before he left Dallas

vaccination doesn't always give complete

protection we run across individuals who

can never be fully immunized that other

times the vaccine is found to be

impotent or poorly

administered however in most cases

vaccination is

effective when will I be able to visit

him Mr bister uh not until he's out of

quarantine I'm afraid for the next week

or so he'll be highly infectious what's

happened to his luggage being fumigated

everything in his possession there's one

item I've got to get hold of I know he

brought it with him was that it's a

Drilling log a long paper roll with a

cloth b the original chart of the warar

well as it was being drilled you'll find

it in a metal container that's see you

get it good night good night fine how

does a man catch such a disease there

are certain places in Asia in the Middle

East where M cases of small Parx

originate South wbar is one of those

places you must excuse me but the hotel

staff's waiting in the ballroom have a

drink valis no thanks actually no time

for

it sounds extraordinary but in nent

London we may reach 10,000 vaccinations

by

morning no thanks I I won't have

another and what is your poison Mr

Kennedy bourbon straight do you have it

it's already

poured no thank you come all this Gloom

is nonsense let me arrange something

with supper afterwards what do you say

my pet now if I know Cooper he'd be the

first to agree I think not Nick I'm not

exactly in the mood of course of course

you've had a trying day but you must eat

I'll send something you like down to

your

room it's very thoughtful of you Nick

but I've really lost my appetite good

[Music]

night good night Mrs Cooper

good night Edward

[Music]

hello thought I told you to go home well

past one what will your wife be thinking

World Health rang back Mr bister two new

incidents Brussels and Zurich any

connection with our Cooper gu nothing

from their side you got the details

they're incomplete sir but it's all

Geneva knows at the

moment so I was foolishly optimistic

this evening thinking the Cooper was a

simple isolated case which we neatly

bottled up get out the Cooper pile and

found sister Brian to to send in all

Cooper things for the moment they've

been fumigated they might give us a clue

oh and Jimmy phone Mrs Cooper tell her I

should want to see her first thing in

the morning Mr Kennedy as well right sir

well I'll second thought you better go

to bed I'll make the call myself I could

stay sir no no the wife of yours will

think of gting about tell me is it that

you're so extraordinarily attractive or

that she so extraordinarily

suspicious I imagine it's a combination

of both

sir good night sir

you heard the phone it was banister

about Steve no but we must be in his

office at 8:00 in the morning okay

Michelle I'll leave an early call for

both of us good

night could I trouble you for a

cigarette on the night

table what's bothering you

all night I hear you marching up down up

we'll talk about it tomorrow perhaps it

would help you to talk now you got your

cigarette I'll blow before you get into

trouble what kind of trouble the kind

you're looking

for there is something bothering you

take off the mask Michelle you with

friends Steve may be my partner but when

it comes to Dames he isn't dry behind

the ears

and what is it like behind your ears dry

as

cornflakes you would wouldn't you would

what tell me how does a little girl grow

up into a cat like you I'll bet you

could purr a man off a steep Cliff or

claw him to

death I don't know what you were trying

to prove but it was a delightful

experiment night sleep

tight what is it bar I'm scared Michelle

Nick says there's going to be an

investigation

those horrid Health people just because

of some silly disease they'll be asking

all sorts of questions but they have a

right to ask Nick says if we mention the

yacht they'll find out about

Bambi promise you won't tell die if they

took him away so I won't man the yard

now calm yourself and go to bed H you're

sweet

Michelle it's all right Nick I told you

Micky darling you have two

vaccinations you talk too much by Angel

and you see too much

[Music]

[Applause]

nice of you both to come you sit there

Mr Cooper draw out the chair Mr Kennedy

with you thank you these are your

husband's valuables Mr and this is what

you ask for Mr

cada no worry they've all been

sterilized your boys do a thorough job

don't you you're dealing with the cev

virus during the night two fresh cases

of small pox have been reported from the

continent the Zurich case is a death H

ketner an investment banker of some

prominence does that name ring a bell

with either of you was me no never heard

of them did you look through Cooper's

papers we CL them carefully another

thing how about marel rier a research

chemist residing in Brussels should I

know him not necessarily but if we could

establish that Mr Cooper did that would

help

enormously I get it you think Cooper met

ketner and Remy and gave them small pox

impossible Mr Kennedy they couldn't have

infected each other even if they'd met

even if they'd

met you lost me

pal have I lost you as well Mrs Cooper

I'm sorry let me explain the elementary

nature of the disease otherwise neither

of you will be of the slightest use to

me Point number one small poox is

contracted by direct exposure to the

virus like a common cold or unlike for

instance yellow fever which can only be

transmitted by a mosquito or sleepy

Sickness by a

tly which brings me to point number two

My Dear Mrs Cooper now if I at this

present moment were in your husband's

condition the contagious

stage I could pass more parts onto by

merely being this cloth and breathing

the word sugar do you take sugar Mrs

Cooper one thank you then but the

supremely important point is this that

you wouldn't fall ill or become

dangerous to other persons until a

future time the time necessary for the

germs to live and flourish in the warmth

of your

body the time of incubation and with

small pox we know this is approximately

14 to 16 days so what have

we three cases Brussels Zurich and

Cooper all three struck down in a matter

of hours and apparently no connection

between them a complete mystery except

for one clue a medical

clue ah have I found you Mr Kennedy

you're saying all three had to catch it

from somebody else who was already

contagious precisely a fourth party and

when Mrs Cooper did that some else

contract the

disease my husband two weeks ago and two

weeks before that 4 weeks you have a

very receptive mind Mrs

kooper then you've given up the idea

that Koopa cour and wbar we had

to while it was the obvious answer in

his case it doesn't explain how ketner

and Rey caught it there's been no trace

of small pox in Europe for 6 months and

we do know that neither of these men

left his own country during that Peri

period plus one further piece of

evidence Mr Kennedy your partner's

passport it shows that he was making

frequent trips from South warar and

always to the same place n were you

acquainted with that fact I got

acquainted with it one of these trips

took place 15 days ago which forces us

to this theory that in Europe somehow

all three men contracted the disease

from a common source a

carrier which brings me to you Mrs

Cooper and the approximate day your

husband contracted the disease April the

2nd the day we're almost certain that he

ketner and Ry met the

carrier what can you tell me about the

2nd of April it was a day of my marriage

what a bit of luck the events of such a

memorable day must be very clear in your

mind now please start in the morning and

take me with you hour by hour we left

the hotel at noon which hotel the

negresco M and you proceeded where s

Paul 20 km from KN the mayor performs a

ceremony I appreciate your conis Mrs

coopa any Witnesses only Ivanovich and

per mhm then we were hungry ah the

wedding celebration where did that take

place at the column door it was raining

we were the only guests I hope the meal

was worthy of the occasion it was 5:00

before we left uhhuh and then we drove

back to n dropped Ivanovich and B at the

Yacht Harbor and proceeded to our hotel

on entering the hotel did Mr Cooper talk

to anybody no we went straight to our

room then what did you

do allow me to refres the question I

meant your movements that

night well how can I put it as soon as

we were on the room Mr Cooper received a

telephone call from

whom I don't

remember he only spoke a few words and

shortly after that he left he left you

on your wedding night Mrs Cooper if I

weren't convinced of your

straightforwardness I should be inclined

to disbelieve my

ears I assure you he left me where did

he go he didn't say well he must have

some idea huh it is difficult to

remember each little thing let me try to

refresh your memory was the call local

or long distance I can't say did it

sound like a personal or a business call

business of course what business did

Cooper having to south of France beside

you he didn't talk to me about things

like that and what made you say was

business at all the metal case was his

Maps he took it with him

where let the dog go to

quarantine he went to see Ivanovich on

his

yacht and as far as you know he came to

the Ard alone and left alone as far as I

know bister why don't you look in a

hospital this man whom you call the

Carrier he must be very sick or even

dead of small pox mhm surely such a

death would be reported not always a

doctor makes a faulty diagnosis and

fails to recognize the disease but Dead

or Alive we must find this

man I wish I could help you when Cooper

left did you have the impression was

going straight back to Mrs Cooper the

New Groom on his wedding night where

else where else indeed um now I'd like

to talk to your captain you'll find him

on the bridge

thanks sit down Mr Kennedy a

bourbon

straight I'd like a word with you I'm a

government official if it's about that

perishing Hound it was not my orders

that put it ashore my dear Skipper I'm

not from the battery dog's home it's

only your crew that concerns me oh I'm

sorry Mr Bannister fine had any sickness

aboard recently no none have you

replaced any of your crew no one of them

ivanovic's plane went into nie one

morning and

happened to him Captain it's a puzzle

home address sure Jack Morel

inbrook must have been important to drag

my partner out in his wedding night what

was it all about I told you it was

confidential did he have this with

Secrets Cooper invited me to invest in

South

wbar oh so in your bathroom last night I

was talking to myself why didn't you

stop me you were my guest whatever I am

in business socially I'm not so bad I

offered Cooper a personal loan but he

refused it why should you lend him money

why not Michelle's new

husband you put it to him like that I

explained it to him I owed Michelle a

little something for services rendered

[Music]

Excellency oh how do you do

[Music]

oh do forgive me asking but who's your

tayor our Minister designate Mr Raman Mr

banister Your Excellence here my

apologies for keeping you

waiting thank

you you must excuse me he has taken a

curious liking to everything

English quiet you come with me

[Music]

please the coffin is over

here may I see the doctor's certificate

sharing cause of death

thank yes this is quite in order and now

Mr Ramen could I examine the body World

Health Organization has an unsolved

small poox incident on its hands and

what has the late minister to do with

smallpox South warar is an endemic area

and diplomats are always suspect faram

could have had the disease without

knowing it indeed he could

sometimes a small Park's carrier doesn't

even realize that he's ill complains of

no more than a headache but while

traveling around with a mild case he can

give it to others in its deadliest form

my colleague died of a heart ailment

furthermore to disturb the remains would

be

sacrilege forgive me thoughtless of me

there a simple alternative could you

supply me with a a detailed account of

The Minister's activities during the

last month no State secrets of course

I really must insist Mr Bannister we

have complied with all your regulations

the plane has been chartered the body is

scheduled to leave here at

2:00 I shall expect the shipping permit

to be in my hands within an hour it will

be given our consideration

sir thank you you sir are a gentleman

that banister is a feret he is demanding

an account of far's movements let me

caution you Raman banister is not a

predictable type of nuisance he's a

dedicated man he will get nowhere I've

dealt with Petty civil servants

before get me the foreign office Sir

Douglas Reed

yes I know that sir but how can you

examine the body without raman's consent

there more ways than one of killing a

cat call mcfallen at the Colon's office

and ask him to recommend that the body

be held for a blood test oh I see what

you mean

Jameson here yes hold on I'll C you Mr

bister Geneva returning your corer

ah D speaking I have those details you

requested your supposition was correct

K's banking house is connected with oil

they have controlling interest in three

major companies how about Remy the

research chemist employed by one of

kettler's oil companies thank you it's a

pleasure Jimmy we found the common

denominator get hold of Mr Kennedy and

tell him to get down here as fast as he

can what gave you the notion there might

be oil in warar was Cooper's idea two

years ago we persuaded British

independent to put up the bulk of the

money for exploration and the government

of warar how did they fit in they

granted us the right to drill with

options that have to be renewed if and

when we struck oil

too strong sir don't ever sneak up on me

with that stuff

again you were saying if when you stck

oil W I received 50% of the profits

British independent 40 and the remaining

10 to Cooper and me very

interesting now what if I told you that

ketner and Remy are in the oil business

are you making jokes I know they are

it's been confirmed by my counterparts

in zuran Brussels banister you've just

exploded a stink bomb we're going to

have a few words with British

independent there is oil in wahar and we

struck it somebody's pulling the oldest

swinder and Texas the Remington Scandal

all over again you remember the crew on

that wild cat of their struck oil and

filled the hole up again with phony

reports they made it look like the well

was dry the Remington option on the land

didn't expire for 2 years but those

thieves waited with their secret then

they doubled back under the disguise of

a new company and got

rich the government of w is working the

Texas scheme on us a few weeks ago

Cooper asked wahar for an extension of

the option they flatly refused want the

money on the day or else and I'll tell

you why they want our option to expire

Foster there's one way to beat these

Pirates at their own game call your

directors together put up the door and

renew the option not so fast with you

Kennedy as conversation with us it's

money May I interrupt gentlemen a

meeting has been mention between Mr

Cooper and the war of our government to

who might Mr Cooper have been talking we

did all an negotiating with the London

minister farum who died last Thursday

what's your point assuming that it was

he who refused Cooper is it possible

that on the very same day faram flew to

urick and Brussels his purpose being a

more profitable contract for warber is

it possible that's the way it was you

hear that Foster even a guy in The Germ

racket can see it what does it take to

convince you a better story Kennedy

there's a big flaw in your tail how did

they put it over on Cooper now tell me

how they fooled him

I can't answer that I don't know

exactly thank you gentlemen it may not

resolve your sorted business Miss but if

I can pinpoint a meeting two weeks ago

between the deceased Minister and Cooper

I may have found my carrier

[Music]

trying to kill yourself watch where

you're going imagine the headline Health

official runs over healthy veser what's

in the big hurry we're going to talk to

your partner and let's make sure we get

[Music]

that

Steve Steve it's me do you hear

[Music]

me yeah

go did you see far and faram the warar

minister did you see him not if you did

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

no

[Music]

any news from the Colon's office no word

at all sir but Mr Hatfield wanted to see

you the instant you came in good now's

your chance to prove that all Americans

aren't arly

if I understand you correctly Mr Kennedy

impling what you say is a monstrous

accusation against the warball

government you get the picture that they

are deliberately trying to conceal a

small pox carrier to put over a

nefarious oil scheme oil is a precious

commodity Mr Hadfield this hasn't been

exactly a game of cricket well now let

me tell you both what's happened the

foreign offic has been on to me they've

had a sharp protest from the war ball

legation about bannister's attitude

World Health has every right to inquire

Into The Minister's movements that ban

is a matter of

opinion The Minister's death certificate

reads coronary thrombosis a non

infectious disease doctors make mistakes

and they're all in

coffins but the certificate is signed by

Sir Henry Stanford I'd like to talk to

Sir Henry I'd remind him of the case of

the army officer who slipped in the

bathtub his death certificate read

fractured scull wasn't until after the

body was accumed we discovered that he

was also a carrier what are the odds

against the repetition five million to

one 10 million to one no stone should be

left

unturned all right gentlemen I'll go

through with it I know I'm mad but I

will get me Sir Douglas Reed of the

foreign

office my word if this

misfiles so Douglas a hat

here you were about to call

me

autopsy no that I didn't know in

credible I quite

agree by all means at once goodbye sir

Douglas well it's Miss far banister your

attempt to force an autopsy the

coroner's request was refused it would

have been a direct violation of Muslim

burial Customs oras pleaded diplomatic

immunity and as you appreciate that puts

an end to the

matter you realize Archie without

concrete medical evidence you never had

a chance

I uh I promised Sir Douglas that the

shipping permit would be sent

immediately I understand

sir I'm sorry

gentlemen you golfer no tennis is my

game Linko

sir hello

bister I'm speaking from from aart

Winter Resort in the teror the situation

is terrible 11 cases of small Fox since

this morning damn it it's struck among

the farms on the slope above the village

quite quite reasonless halfway up a

mountain and no

explanation is there anything new in

London can you help us banister no

linkers I can't help you yes I thought

we were on to something but we reached a

dead end

sorry yes of course have you

then what do you mean we've reached the

dead end well you heard what Hatfield

said or tops is out warar has invoked

diplomatic immunity that puts pay to the

matter only if you're a bookkeeper now

what do you want to do examine the

corpse I give a year of my life and be a

man of action

like like The Lone Ranger you know what

he'd do what he'd snatch the body snatch

the body you don't mean The Lone Ranger

you mean alap Pony okay have it your way

Al

Capone

how there's always a way think

devious think

devious

Jimmy find out who's supplying the

hearse for the war of allegation tell

them that the corpse is suspected to

being contagious and if they transport

it their entire premises will be closed

down for

fumigation the idea is to scare them off

yes

sir I like the way you operate Mr

caponi the van ought to be here the

voice at 1:00 my partner little woman

would tell us what she knows you'd find

your carrier in a

hurry why should Mrs Cooper withhold

information because she's covering up

for somebody like who like Ivanovic he's

the horse thief behind this whole

Swindle and I can prove it if I can

pinpoint a meeting between him and faram

how would you do that with Michelle

that's how I prove

it all right bring her to my place but

remember you'll treat that girl and

you'll have archall Bannister to deal

with so you're not warm for that Iceberg

are

you

rather under other circumstances I

wouldn't mind having a bash at melting

her down keep your blinkers on banister

case the philosopher who never takes a

risk now that you know the truth I hope

you will be reasonable Mr Kennedy

reasonable what was Cooper's price

considerable he fancied himself an

honest man there are no honest men only

those who haven't been offered enough

what's your price

funny I can't think of

one now if you please Mr banister you

don't understand this is deadly the

virus is in the Clough backing of the

log everyone who opened this tube was

stricken the log contaminated he already

killed two of your Associates so that's

how it spread then such a danger should

be destroyed we can burn it together Mr

banister that won't do at all this must

go to a laboratory for verification

supposition isn't good enough but it's

not supposition Cooper brought this to

me on his wedding night my pilot flew it

to Remy and kler I knew long before you

did they had small pox when you came to

the party I was already vaccinated you

could have noticed I gave you my right

arm not the left caress Al me I thought

bother with details or I might have

examined the log myself pity you didn't

your case is closed hand it over this

belongs to World
