Man: GOOD MORNING, MR. PHELPS.

A SECRET DETAILED MAP OF NATO'S MISSILE DEFENSE SYSTEM

WAS RECENTLY PREPARED ON TWO OVERLAYS,

NEITHER OF WHICH IS COMPLETE WITHOUT THE OTHER.

THEY WERE SENT BY SEPARATE COURIERS

TO A MEETING BETWEEN NATO

AND ONE OF EUROPE'S SMALL UNCOMMITTED NATIONS.

FELICIA VABAR, A MEMBER OF AN ENEMY SPY APPARAT,

HAD ONE OF THE COURIERS INTERCEPTED

AND THE OVERLAY HE WAS CARRYING STOLEN.

TO GET THE OTHER,

SHE HAS RECRUITED CAPTAIN MIKLOS CHERNO,

AN INTERNAL SECURITY OFFICER OF THE COUNTRY

WHERE THE CONFERENCE WAS BEING HELD.

YOUR MISSION, SHOULD YOU DECIDE TO ACCEPT IT,

IS TO PREVENT MISS VABAR FROM GETTING THE SECOND OVERLAY

WITHOUT WHICH THE FIRST IS USELESS.

AS ALWAYS, SHOULD YOU OR ANY OF YOUR I.M. FORCE

BE CAUGHT OR KILLED,

THE SECRETARY WILL DISAVOW ANY KNOWLEDGE OF YOUR ACTIONS.

THIS RECORDING WILL SELF-DESTRUCT IN FIVE SECONDS.

GOOD LUCK, JIM.

James: ENTRANCE HALL. LOBBY.

THROUGH THE DOOR. THROUGH THE CORRIDOR.

ANOTHER DOOR.

UP A STAIRWAY.

CONTINUING ON UP THE STAIRWAY. THROUGH A DOOR.

CORRIDOR.

GUARD POST.

THE SECOND OVERLAY WHICH FELICIA VABAR IS STILL AFTER

IS KEPT RIGHT HERE.

Rollin: JIM? YES.

IS THAT A SPECIAL VAULT ROOM?

YES. THE ENTRANCE IS SEPARATED FROM THE FLOOR

BY THESE TWO STEEL DOORS.

THERE'S A GUARD AT THIS POST.

THE DOOR THEMSELVES CLOSE AUTOMATICALLY

AT ANY EMERGENCY.

LIKE AN AIR RAID DRILL.

EXACTLY. NOW FELICIA WILL ARRIVE WITH HER PEOPLE

AT PRECISELY 10:30.

FIVE MINUTES LATER, THE AIR RAID IS TO BEGIN.

WE'LL USE THEIR PLAN.

WE'LL ONLY, UH, ADJUST THE TIMETABLE.

YOU AND BARNEY SET WITH THE SIGNAL?

RIGHT HERE IN MY PURSE.

GOOD.

I'LL USE THIS TO TURN IT OFF.

THE PISTOL?

IT'S IN THE SATCHEL.

I THINK WE'RE ABOUT SET.

HAS THE GOVERNMENT BEEN NOTIFIED WE'RE COMING IN?

THE MINISTER OF DEFENSE ONLY IS AWARE OF OUR PLAN.

NO ONE ELSE.

EVERYTHING MUST APPEAR PERFECTLY NORMAL

TO BRING THIS OFF.

AS FAR AS ANYONE ELSE IS CONCERNED,

IT'S BUSINESS AS USUAL.

THAT COULD MAKE IT ROUGH.

ROLLIN AND I HAVE WORKED OUT A PLAN.

HYPNOSIS. I'LL GIVE HIM A POST-HYPNOTIC SUGGESTION.

HE WON'T BE ABLE TO REMEMBER THIS OPERATION

FROM THE MOMENT HE FIRES THE GUN TILL 4:00 THAT AFTERNOON.

WHAT IF THEY USE DRUGS?

HE WON'T TELL THEM ANYTHING.

IF THEY THREATEN TO KILL HIM?

THREATS WON'T BOTHER HIM, BUT IF THEY TRY TO DO IT,

HE'LL COME OUT OF IT.

OKAY, JIM, SIT IN THAT CHAIR.

I WANT YOU TO RELAX COMPLETELY.

GOOD.

NOW LOOK AT THIS SPOT IN THE CENTER OF MY FOREHEAD.

AS YOU LOOK AT IT, I WANT YOU TO RELAX.

BREATHE DEEPLY.

THAT'S IT.

RELAX.

[ KNOCKING ]

NOW, WHAT BUSINESS WAS SO URGENT IT COULDN'T WAIT?

I HAVE BEEN GIVING OUR PLAN FOR TOMORROW

A GREAT DEAL OF THOUGHT.

IS SOMETHING WRONG?

ON THE CONTRARY,

I'M CONVINCED IT WILL GO OFF SMOOTHLY.

I'M AFRAID I DON'T UNDERSTAND.

IT IS JUST THAT I ONLY NOW HAVE COME TO REALIZE

WHAT A TERRIBLE RISK I AM TAKING.

CAPTAIN CHERNO, WE'VE BEEN PLANNING THIS FOR WEEKS.

NOW SUDDENLY, THE DAY BEFORE, YOU REALIZE THERE'S A RISK.

YOU'RE BEING VERY WELL-PAID FOR YOUR PART.

OF COURSE. OF COURSE.

AND YET I MUST TAKE CARE OF LIEUTENANT DREIS --

GET TO THE POINT.

HOW MUCH?

UNDER THE CIRCUMSTANCES --

HOW MUCH?

$25,000.

YOU'VE ALREADY BEEN PAID $10,000.

IT IS MERELY ANOTHER $15,000.

IS EVERYTHING READY?

EVERYTHING.

I WILL CALL FOR THE AIR RAID DRILL AT 10:35 EXACTLY.

DREIS WILL BE ON THE DOOR TO THE VAULT AREA.

PAY HIM.

THESE SEEM TO BE IN ORDER, CORPORAL.

[ KNOCK ON DOOR ]

THAT WILL BE THE MASSEUR.

THE QUICKEST WAY TO AROUSE SUSPICION

IS TO CHANGE ROUTINE.

EVERYTHING MUST BE BUSINESS AS USUAL.

LET HIM IN AND SEE ABOUT THE GUARD CHANGE.

COME IN.

WHO ARE YOU?

YOUR MASSEUR, CAPTAIN.

WHERE IS SERGEANT DROBI?

HE IS SICK.

THE SERGEANT MAJOR SENT ME TO TAKE HIS PLACE.

ALL RIGHT, BUT YOU'LL HAVE TO HURRY.

YES, SIR.

AH! YOU'VE GOT THE TOUCH OF AN ELEPHANT!

SORRY, CAPTAIN.

CAROL DENNISON, UNITED STATES EMBASSY,

TO SEE COLONEL DOBROFF.

HE'S EXPECTING ME.

FOURTH FLOOR.

WE'RE READY.

I'D BETTER GET ON DUTY.

WELL, NOW, MISS DENNISON, WHAT CAN I DO FOR YOU?

I'M THE INTELLIGENCE OFFICER AT THE EMBASSY, COLONEL.

WE HAVE A LEAD THAT WE HOPE WILL MEAN

THE RECOVERY OF THE MISSING MAP OVERLAY.

I'VE COME TO YOU BECAUSE WE MAY NEED YOUR HELP.

AT THE MOMENT, ALL WE REQUIRE IS YOUR DISCRETION.

LATER, I MAY HAVE TO CALL ON YOU.

IF DROBI IS STILL SICK NEXT WEEK, DON'T BOTHER.

YES, SIR.

I'M SORRY, CAPTAIN.

GOOD DAY, SIR.

WHAT ARE YOU DOING ON THIS FLOOR?

[ SIREN BLARES ]

THIS IS CAPTAIN CHERNO. WHAT HAPPENED?

THE DRILL WAS SCHEDULED FOR 10:35 EXACTLY.

[ SIREN CONTINUES ]

SOMETHING'S GONE WRONG. THE DRILL'S ALREADY STARTED.

GET IN THERE AND FIND OUT WHAT YOU CAN.

WELL, FIND OUT AND REPORT TO ME IMMEDIATELY!

WHEN THE DRILL IS OVER, THE GATE WILL OPEN.

[ SIREN FADING ]

[ DOOR CRASHES OPEN ]

HOLD HIM!

YOU, THERE, HALT!

HALT OR I'LL FIRE!

[ MACHINE GUN FIRE ]

DRIVE.

GET THIS CAR MOVING.

[ MACHINE GUN FIRE ]

[ TIRES SQUEAL ]

[ MACHINE GUN FIRE ]

WHAT'S THAT?

NEVER MIND. JUST KEEP THE CAR MOVING.

THIS IS THE MAN?

YES, SIR.

THE OVERLAY?

IN THE VAULT. HE PHOTOGRAPHED IT.

YOU HAVE FOUND THE CAMERA?

HE FIRED A PROJECTILE THROUGH THE WINDOW.

THE CAMERA AND FILM MUST HAVE BEEN IN IT.

SOONER OR LATER, WE WILL GET IT BACK.

IT WOULD MAKE IT EASIER IF YOU TOLD US NOW WHERE IT IS.

I DON'T KNOW.

I DON'T REMEMBER ANY OVERLAY. I NEVER SAW IT.

I'M YOUR HUSBAND. WE'VE BEEN TO A PARTY.

I'VE HAD TOO MUCH TO DRINK AND YOU'RE TAKING ME HOME.

DON'T MAKE ANY MISTAKES.

SOMETHING WRONG?

JUST A FEW QUESTIONS -- WHERE ARE YOU GOING?

TOBIN.

IS THIS YOUR HUSBAND?

YES. I'M TAKING HIM HOME. HE'S NOT FEELING TOO WELL.

LOOKS LIKE HE'S FEELING FINE, TOO FINE.

YES. WHAT'S THE TROUBLE?

SOMEONE BROKE INTO THE SECURITY SECTION

OF HEADQUARTERS DURING THE AIR RAID DRILL

AND STOLE SOME DEFENSE PLANS.

WELL, I HOPE YOU CATCH THEM.

WE WILL.

ALL RIGHT, GO.

ALL RIGHT, YOU TWO CAN GO.

THERE ARE WAYS TO MAKE A MAN TALK.

DO YOU BEGIN TO UNDERSTAND?

YOU CAN'T MAKE ME TALK, BECAUSE I DON'T KNOW ANYTHING,

BUT I GUESS YOU HAVE GOT TO TRY.

YES, I'VE GOT TO TRY.

Cherno: LISTEN TO ME.

HE IS GOING TO TELL US WHERE TO FIND THAT OVERLAY.

IF WE DID GO TO DOBROFF WITH THAT INFORMATION,

WE ARE HEROES, OR WE CAN TELL DOBROFF NOTHING

AND BECOME WEALTHY MEN.

THE OVERLAY THIS ONE FIRED OUT OF THE VAULT ROOM

IS THE SAME ONE

FELICIA VABAR IS SO DESPERATE TO GET.

NOW, IF SHE WOULD PAY US $25,000 JUST TO HELP

HER RISK TO STEAL IT,

WHAT DO YOU SUPPOSE SHE WOULD PAY

IF WE HANDED IT TO HER ON A SILVER PLATTER?

I'LL TELL YOU.

SHE WOULD PAY A FORTUNE.

WHAT DOES THE ARMY PAY A LIEUTENANT THESE DAYS?

VERY LITTLE.

THE CAR WILL NEED GAS SOON,

BUT WE CAN'T JUST DRIVE AIMLESSLY ABOUT THE CITY.

YOU'RE RIGHT, AND I'LL NEED A PLACE TO HIDE FOR A WHILE.

WHERE DO YOU LIVE?

I HAVE AN APARTMENT.

WE'LL PARK THE CAR A FEW BLOCKS FROM YOUR PLACE AND WALK.

Cherno: CAN YOU HEAR ME?

[ MUMBLES ]

LISTEN, CAN YOU HEAR ME NOW?

I'M YOUR FRIEND.

[ MUMBLES ]

YES...

I HEAR YOU.

CAREFULLY NOW, I WANT YOU TO REMEMBER.

CAN'T REMEMBER. I CAN'T.

YOU WERE IN THE VAULT. YOU FIRED THE PISTOL.

WHO PICKED IT UP?

WHERE IS HE NOW?

I CAN'T THINK. I'M SO TIRED.

YOU MUST THINK. WHO HAS THAT OVERLAY?

WHERE IS HE? WHAT IS HIS NAME?

SO TIRED I CAN'T REMEMBER.

YOU MUST REMEMBER. THINK!

CAN'T THINK...

CAN'T REMEMBER.

DO YOU MIND IF I TAKE MY COAT OFF?

NO.

PUT IT IN THERE.

[ LOW-PITCHED TONE ]

NOW THAT YOU HAVE ME HERE, WHAT DO YOU PROPOSE TO DO?

YOU'RE IN NO DANGER.

ALL I NEED IS --

A PLACE TO HIDE.

EVERY POLICEMAN, EVERY SOLDIER IN THE COUNTRY

IS LOOKING FOR YOU.

YOU ARE THE MAN WHO STOLE THE DEFENSE PLANS, AREN'T YOU?

ANY CALLS?

ROLLIN JUST ARRIVED. THE LIGHT JUST WENT ON.

YOU'RE JUMPING TO CONCLUSIONS.

LET'S NOT PLAY GAMES.

I KNOW WHAT'S ON THAT FILM IN THAT CAMERA IN YOUR POCKET.

YOU'RE GUESSING.

ACCURATELY.

LET US ASSUME THAT WHAT YOU ARE SAYING IS RIGHT.

WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO YOU?

WELL, I MIGHT BE WILLING TO HELP YOU DISPOSE OF THEM.

WE'RE NOT PLAYING GAMES, REMEMBER?

NOW, I'M NOT DISPOSING OF ANYTHING,

BUT I MIGHT BE WILLING TO SELL.

GOOD. I MIGHT BE WILLING TO BUY.

WHO ARE YOU?

HOW CAN THAT MATTER?

WE'RE IN THE SAME BUSINESS. WHY DON'T WE HELP EACH OTHER?

[ KNOCK ON DOOR ]

Man: FELICIA.

FELICIA, ARE YOU THERE?

DON'T ANSWER IT.

FELICIA.

THERE'S A KEY ABOVE THE DOOR.

IF I DON'T ANSWER, HE'LL LET HIMSELF IN.

ALL RIGHT, GET RID OF HIM.

[ KNOCK ON DOOR ]

Man: FELICIA?

JUST A MINUTE.

BE CAREFUL.

I CAN'T SEE YOU NOW.

OF COURSE. WHATEVER YOU SAY.

THAT WAS STUPID.

I DIDN'T DO ANYTHING. SOMEHOW THEY JUST KNEW.

YOU'VE GOT TO BELIEVE ME. PLEASE.

WE'VE GOT TO TRUST EACH OTHER.

I DON'T TRUST YOU ANY MORE THAN YOU TRUST ME.

WAIT.

ALL RIGHT, I UNDERESTIMATED YOU.

I MADE A MISTAKE.

I WON'T DO IT AGAIN.

Cherno: ANSWER ME!

I DON'T UNDERSTAND.

THE DRUG SEEMS TO HAVE HAD NO EFFECT,

EXCEPT TO PUT HIM TO SLEEP.

NONE OF THESE TRUTH SERUMS WORK EVERY TIME.

CAN'T YOU WAKE HIM UP?

HE'LL COME OUT OF IT IN AN HOUR OR TWO.

SO WE WAIT.

WHO ARE YOU WORKING FOR?

I DON'T SEE THAT IT MATTERS.

THEY PAY IN AMERICAN DOLLARS.

HOW MANY AMERICAN DOLLARS?

$5,000.

BUT YOU'VE ONLY GOT HALF OF THE PLAN.

YOU DO KNOW THAT, DON'T YOU?

IF THAT IS TRUE, THEN YOU MUST HAVE THE OTHER HALF.

WHY DO YOU THINK SO?

IF YOU DIDN'T, MY HALF WOULDN'T BE

WORTH A PENNY TO YOU.

WHICH MEANS THAT IF EACH OF US

ONLY HAS ONE HALF OF THE PLANS,

WE HAVE TO MAKE A DEAL, DON'T WE?

HOW MUCH?

$100,000 AMERICAN DOLLARS.

YOU ARE JOKING.

THAT'S THE PRICE. LET'S NOT WASTE TIME.

ALL RIGHT.

IT WILL TAKE ME AN HOUR TO GET IT.

FINE.

MEANTIME, I WILL GO DEVELOP THE FILM.

ALL RIGHT.

I'LL MEET YOU BACK HERE IN, UH, SAY --

NO, NO, NO.

YOU KEEP UNDERESTIMATING ME, DON'T YOU?

NOT HERE. MY PLACE.

NUMBER 52 VINSKA STREET, APARTMENT 3-B,

IN ONE HOUR.

[ TELEPHONE RINGING ]

Barney: IT'S CHERNO'S OFFICE.

[ TELEPHONE RINGING ]

CAPTAIN CHERNO'S OFFICE.

CAPTAIN CHERNO, PLEASE.

NO, HE'S NOT IN. MAY I TAKE A MESSAGE?

WHEN DO YOU EXPECT HIM?

I DO NOT EXPECT THE CAPTAIN TODAY.

DO YOU KNOW WHERE I CAN REACH HIM?

NO. MAY I SAY WHO'S CALLING?

NOW SHE'S TRYING HIS HOME.

[ TELEPHONE RINGS ]

[ RING ]

[ RINGING TONE ]

THIS ONE WE LET GO THROUGH.

[ TELEPHONE RINGS ]

HELLO?

Felicia: ARNO.

YES.

I'VE GOT A JOB FOR YOU.

GOOD.

EVEN UNDER THE DRUG, HE HAS TOLD YOU NOTHING?

NOTHING, COLONEL. ABSOLUTELY NOTHING.

HAVE YOU FOUND OUT ANYTHING ABOUT HIM -- HIS REAL NAME,

WHERE HE COMES FROM, WHO HIS FRIENDS ARE?

HIS PAPERS ARE FALSE.

HIS FINGERPRINTS ARE NOT IN OUR FILES.

WE KNOW NOTHING ABOUT HIM.

MIKLOS, THIS MAN GAINED ENTRANCE

TO THE BUILDING TO COME TO SEE YOU.

HE WENT FROM YOUR OFFICE TO STEAL THE PLANS.

YOU HAVE BEEN QUESTIONING HIM FOR HOURS

AND HAVE FOUND OUT NOT THE SLIGHTEST DETAIL.

WHAT ARE YOU IMPLYING?

I MERELY MAKE THE OBSERVATION, AND I TELL YOU

IF YOU DO NOT GET RESULTS BEFORE THE END OF THIS DAY,

I'LL PUT THE INVESTIGATION IN OTHER HANDS.

YOU WILL TELL ME WHAT I WANT TO KNOW

OR SO HELP ME I WILL KILL YOU.

NOW WHERE ARE THOSE PLANS?

I CAN'T.

HOW DID IT COME OUT?

PERFECT.

[ TELEPHONE RINGS ]

MISS VABAR'S EXCHANGE.

IS MISS VABAR THERE?

I DO NOT EXPECT HER UNTIL 7:00.

ASK HER TO CALL MIKLOS WHEN SHE RETURNS.

MIKLOS? YES, OF COURSE.

ALMOST LOOKS LIKE THE REAL ONE.

YOU WILL TELL ME WHAT I WANT TO KNOW.

HOW LONG DO YOU THINK YOUR LUCK WILL HOLD OUT?

GET RID OF HIM.

I SAID GET RID OF HIM.

NO, THAT'S NOT THE REAL PLAN,

BUT YOU DIDN'T BRING THE MONEY, DID YOU?

WAIT IN THE CAR.

HOW CAN I HELP YOU?

OUR PEOPLE WERE FOLLOWING UP A LEAD.

THEY HAVE SOMETHING?

WITH ME DEAD, HOW WOULD YOU EXPECT

TO GET THE OTHER HALF OF THE PLAN, HMM?

DID YOU REALLY THINK I'D BE STUPID?

STUPID ENOUGH TO TRUST YOU?

WELL, I CAN'T BLAME YOU FOR TRYING.

HA HA HA.

BUT I CAN MAKE SURE

THAT IT WILL NEVER HAPPEN AGAIN.

ASSUMING YOU STILL WANT THE PLANS.

OH, YES.

I DO.

GOOD.

I'M SORRY.

NO, YOU'RE NOT.

WHY SAY YOU ARE?

I SAID THE FIRST THING THAT CAME TO MIND,

SO IT MUST BE THE TRUTH.

YOU AND I ARE SO USED TO LYING

THAT WE SELDOM KNOW WHEN WE ARE TELLING THE TRUTH.

THAT HURTS.

YES, IT DOES.

YOU'LL REMEMBER.

[ GUNSHOT ] I'LL TELL YOU.

BY THE WAY,

I WANT THE MONEY PAID IN SMALL BILLS --

200,000 AMERICAN DOLLARS.

HA HA HA. HA HA HA.

THIS TIME, PLAY IT STRAIGHT, BECAUSE IF YOU DON'T --

I UNDERSTAND.

I'LL BE AT THIS ADDRESS.

Rollin: AT 4:30.

4:30 SHARP.

AND THIS TIME BE ALONE. UNDERSTAND?

IF I TELL YOU, WHAT HAPPENS TO ME?

IF WE RECOVER THE PLANS, I'LL RECOMMEND CLEMENCY.

YOU'LL GET A YEAR, MAYBE TWO YEARS.

WHAT -- WHAT CHOICE DO I HAVE?

COME. YOU SHOW US.

BRING YOUR HAND OUT...EMPTY.

YOUR COMRADE HAD NO CHOICE BUT TO COOPERATE.

NEITHER DO YOU.

[ DOOR OPENS ]

[ DOOR CLOSES ]

AFTER HIM.

UP TO THAT MACHINE. QUICKLY.

PUT YOUR HANDS THERE.

MISS VABAR, WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?

I CAME FOR THAT.

AND HOW MUCH ARE YOU WILLING TO PAY FOR IT?

YOU'VE ALREADY BEEN PAID.

BUT THAT WAS TO MAKE IT POSSIBLE

FOR YOU TO STEAL IT.

THIS IS ANOTHER MATTER.

I'LL GIVE YOU ANOTHER $25,000.

I THINK I'D RATHER SETTLE

FOR WHAT YOU HAVE IN THAT CASE INSTEAD.

HOW DO I KNOW IT'S THE REAL MAP?

THE SAME WAY I FIND OUT HOW MUCH IS IN THE CASE --

BY EXAMINATION.

I THINK EACH OF US HAS DONE WELL.
