The accused will stand.

l want to make my position clear.

The verdict in this case has been
taken by the four jury officers,

but l would like to establish that l
am in agreement with them.

After due deliberation, they have
found Colonel Foster guilty .

Under Article 183,
the sentence is specific.

The execution was fixed for
1200 hours, the 19th of next month.

Any appeal must be lodged
within 14 days.

- Has Colonel Freeman left?
- Yes, sir, a couple of hours ago.

- Shall l contact him?
- No, l'll call him at home.

Oh, don't you ever sleep?

Hope l didn't wake you up.

Listen, Alec, there's a few things
l want to check.

- Hold it.
- What is it?

- What's wrong?
- Don't say anything. "R" alarm.

Are you all right?

Ed, are you all right?

Can you hear me?

Yes, l'm fine, Alec.

lt's a bugging device.
Somebody's out to get us, Alec.

l've got a good idea who it is.

- Mr Straker.
- Thank you, we'll go through.

lt's all right, just show us
where we sharpen our knives.

- l'm sorry, sir.
- Don't worry, Miss Scott.

Stopping runaway trains
is not part of your job.

- Straker, an unpleasant surprise.
- Yes, l'm sure.

- You know Jackson, of course.
- Of course.

- The eyes and ears of the world.
- Commander. Colonel Freeman.

l'd shake hands but l can't
bear to touch anything slippery.

Now we've done the pleasantries.
This isn't just a social call?

Yours, l believe.

Standard Mark lV bugging device.

Range about
three miles.

Planted in my car.
Why?

Two reasons,
one to test your security...

And the real reason?

Two days ago, we had to
squash a press report.

lt concerned a Skydiver's
rendezvous with a supply ship.

lt named the exact
position and time.

We had to get a supression notice.

Yes, it would've been unfortunate

for Skydiver to have surfaced
to reporters and photographers.

- ls this some kind of sick joke?
- You've got a big security breach.

- You'd better believe me.
- We've checked.

The information never circulated.

lt's specific to SHADO HQ
under the studio.

To put it bluntly,
someone you know,

work with every day,
is a security hazard.

Just give us the details.
We'll find out who it is.

lf you don't,
we will.

lt's been very nice dealing
with you, Mr Foster.

- Let's hope it works out.
- Don't worry, it will.

l wouldn't have let Diana
sign the contract

if she didn't have a great future.
One day, your studio'll thank me.

This is just the start of
a long, friendly relationship.

The contract is subject
to the director's approval.

Of course. l'm sure we can come
to some arrangement, Mr Foster.

We can help each other...
if you know what l mean.

Henderson was right. We've
got a problem on our hands.

lt's frightening knowing that
one you've known for years...

- Has sunk as low as you can get.
- But who is it?

The coded message
to Skydiver.

The one that was leaked.

Authorised and sent
by Colonel Foster.

Hl. How's it going?

Oh, great. There's more to
making movies than people think.

- l'm learning more every day.
- Yes, that happens to most of us.

- l want to talk to you.
- Sure.

l mean now.

Get rid of the crew.

OK, boys, take an early lunch.

Leave it running. l want
to see the other shots.

Are you certain?

Right. Right, l'll check it out.

Yes, l'll tell him.

Close the door.

You transmitted this 3 days ago.

Yeah, but this is a...

Hadn't we better go to your office?

Worried about security? Maybe l
feel just as secure right here.

Did you transmit that message?

Well, yes.

l believe l outrank you, Foster.

- Yes.
- Yes what?

- Yes, sir.
- That's better.

Let's keep it that way.

- Look, what's all this about?
- Just answer my questions.

Who else knew about
the Skydiver transmission?

- l mentioned it to Alec Freeman.
- Exact position?

- Details? Time?
- No, sir.

- You mention it to anyone else?
- No!

How is it that this information
which you say you told no one

got into the hands of a paper?

- A newspaper?
- Yes.

Giving exact time and position
of Skydiver's rendezvous.

- l just don't understand.
- Neither do l.

l've spoken to Henderson. There's
been another security leak.

- A routine flight from Moonbase.
- Who planned and authorised it?

Foster.

Thank you, Alec.

- l don't get it.
- How about an explanation?

Explanation!?
Explain what?

- What do you think l've done?
- l'm not thinking anything.

- l'm interested in facts.
- l'm sorry, l can't help you.

- This whole thing's ridiculous.
- Ridiculous?

Maybe you'll think a military
court is ridiculous.

- A military court?
- When l tell Henderson the

position, the outcome is obvious.
And you'd better consider this:

SHADO is run as a
military organisation.

We're at war. You realise the
penalty for espionage.

Three minutes to nine.

Right.

Guards.

l convene this court martial
by the authority invested in me

under Article 183
of our charter.

l must remind you that as of now,
everyone is under oath of truth.

Prosecuting officer may proceed.

The accused, Colonel Paul Foster,

is indicted under Section 8
of SHADO security regulations.

l intend to show that he alone is
responsible for and guilty of

the worst crime that can be used
against our organisation.

Espionage.

The defence forgoes his right
to speak at this time.

Very well.

Prosecuting officer will proceed.

My first witness...

Lieutenant Ford.

You are Lieutenant Keith Ford and a
senior operative in SHADO Control.

- Yes, sir.
- Do you recognise that apparatus?

Yes, sir. lt's a standard code
and transmit device.

Like the one used in
SHADO Control?

- Yes.
- Will you tell us how it works?

The primary circuits are a series
of electro-scanners, in series...

Lieutenant...

We'd be grateful if you'd
keep it as simple as possible.

The information
is inserted here...

ln what form is this information?

Handwritten, on a
standard input docket.

Like this?

But you say the message
or whatever is handwritten,

it seems an antiquated method
in this electronic age.

lt's one of the best security
checks we have.

This device scans the card and compares
it with standard samples.

lt will only accept
genuine authorised input.

So, for example, if l wrote
a message for transmission?

lt would be scanned and
rejected, as would a forgery.

l see. Whose handwriting is the
coder programmed to accept?

Commander Straker's, Colonel
Freeman's...

- and Colonel Foster's.
- And Colonel Foster's. l see.

The information is then coded
and transmitted automatically.

- Yes, sir.
- Thank you, Lieutenant.

What happens to the input card?

- lt's destroyed inside the coder.
- But a record is kept of input?

- Yes, in the coder's memory bank.
- So if you, for example, wanted to,

you could check the content
of a transmission.

- Like anyone else in the room.
- Yes.

- Anyone.
- Thank you.

Just how could you check the
content of the transmission?

You select the relevant number
and the information is printed out.

- On another card similar to this?
- Yes, sir.

lsn't it printed out in code
as it was transmitted?

And isn't it necessary to use
a computer run to decode it?

When was the last computer
run of this kind?

- About two weeks ago.
- Two weeks ago.

The transmissions of the security
leak were in the last 5 days.

That's all, Lieutenant.

Will Captain Waterman
come forward, please?

Captain Lew Waterman, at present
commanding officer, Skydiver.

l've just one question, Captain.

Did you know the contents of the

transmissions by Colonel Foster?

Could you explain why, Captain?

Until we receive confirmation, the
message remains encoded.

ls this a standard procedure
for security reasons?

- Yes.
- Neither you nor any of your crew

could have leaked
the information?

- No.
- Would you mind speaking up?

Thank you.

No questions.

- Are you sure?
- Certain, l've seen it myself.

Well that's just great. Set up the
reverse and keep in fairly low.

- Where will you be?
- l'm going to see Straker.

Straker, Commander-in-Chief,
SHADO Operations.

Commander Straker, is Colonel
Foster a friend of yours?

He's an officer under my command.

- ls he also a friend?
- Not in the sense you mean.

This comrade, is he guilty of
espionage, a traitor, a spy?!

My opinion as a man or as Colonel
Foster's commanding officer?

Why not give us both, Commander?

Very well. As a man,
my opinions are private

and no concern of this hearing.

As Foster's superior officer, l'm
interested in facts, not guesses.

No more questions.

Colonel Foster is a comparatively
new member of SHADO?

And you authorised
his acceptance?

- Yes, that's correct.
- How did you make your decision?

On the basis of the physical,
psychiatric and computer tests,

on his past record as an air
force pilot, a civilian pilot

and on my judgment.

- He has security clearance?
- Naturally.

ls this a copy of the security
report on Colonel Foster?

Commander, would you read out,
aloud please, the last paragraph?

Colonel Foster is considered to
be an excellent security risk

and we recommend
class A clearance.

Thank you, Commander.

You will see that l was one of the
examining officers on that report.

Yes. Your signature is here.

lt only goes to show that
we can all make mistakes.

Don't you agree?

Thank you, Commander.

This may be an appropriate time
to adjourn. We resume at 1400.

l need some air.

Excuse me, Carl Mason wanted to
see you. He said it's very urgent.

Not now, Miss Raland.

Defending officer may proceed.

So far, the facts to have emerged
from this hearing are that

Colonel Foster was in possession
of the said classified material.

But there has been no proof that
he passed it on to outside persons.

l therefore do not intend
to take up the time of the court

with character references
for the accused.

His record speaks for itself.

l call Colonel Foster.

Foster, Paul J, 804.

- Are you guilty of the charges?
- Not guilty.

Have you ever passed on
classified information

- to unauthorised persons?
- Never.

Colonel Foster, would you say you
have a nervous disposition?

- You're the psychiatrist.
- Please answer my question.

Normally, no. l'm not
a nervous person.

Under extreme stress
you stay reasonably calm?

- Reasonably.
- lt's part of your profession

isn't is, and part of your

training to remain calm
in abnormal conditions.

Colonel, are you nervous now?

- Where's all this getting us?
- Please answer my question.

Are you nervous now?

- Yes or no.
- No.

You surprise me.

You stand accused of giving
classified material to the press,

endangering the security of
SHADO and everyone's life.

l object! My client
is being baited.

Overruled. This is not a civil
court of law. We're after the facts.

Continue.

Colonel Foster, did you or did you
not violate Section A, Paragraph 5

of the SHADO security
regulations?

- l did not.
- Then how do you think the press

- got hold of this information?
- l don't know. Ask the press.

l suggest you're lying.

l did not give classified
information to any newspaper.

All right, Colonel Foster. But...

l have one last question.

Here's a Photostat
of your bank account.

$10,000 was paid
in on the 10th,

by an unnamed subscriber.
Could you explain that, Foster?

l can't. lt's the
first l've heard of it.

- Very convenient.
- What are you implying?

l am stating that the money
was payment for espionage,

the going price for a traitor,
the rewards of a spy!

l am stating that you sold
SHADO secrets to the press

for the sum of $10,000!

l know nothing of how that
money got there. lt's a plant!

- Someone's trying to frame me!
- Nervous now, Foster?

This is ridiculous!

l protest! My client is being
deliberately baited!

Order!
l want order!

lt's a lie and he knows it!

All right, Foster. Where
did that cheque come from?

l don't know.

l'll ask you just once more. Where
did that money come from?

l tell you, l don't know.

All right. Alec, how
can we find out about it?

A Swiss numbered account?
You tell me.

Do you think l'm guilty?

lt can't affect anything now.
l'd just like to know.

All the evidence in that
court martial says yes.

But my gut reaction is... no.

Colonel Freeman.

Right.

They're coming back in.

They have found Colonel Foster
guilty of the charge as stated.

Under Article 183,
the sentence is specific.

The execution was fixed for 1200
hours, the 19th of next month.

Any appeal must be lodged
within 14 days.

This court martial is closed.

lt's incredible. There wasn't one
piece of tangible evidence.

Foster was found guilty through
a series of airtight negatives.

lnformation was leaked to the
press. Foster was the only

one who knew that information.

He told no one.
His word.

And the coder transmitter
is security proof.

There must be another explanation.

Well, it appears
to be military.

No, l can't give you the source,
l just happened on it by chance.

Yes. Yes, l'll certainly do that.

The usual arrangement?

Right.

Anything you want, Colonel?

- No, thanks.
- Could be a long night.

Shall l ask the doctor to get you
something to help you sleep?

No, thanks.
l'll be fine.

- Sleep well, Mr Straker?
- As a matter of fact, no.

Well, that's too bad.
Because l didn't sleep at all.

- lt's Carl Mason, isn't it?
- Finally, recognition!

You'll have to excuse me.

l've been trying to talk to you
for three days.

Everybody has problems. Some
more important than others.

- Take your hand off me.
- l've telephoned you 12 times.

l've practically slept here.
Now listen to me.

- l'm warning you.
- You've got troubles? Here's one.

There's a security leak.

- Security leak?
- l'm making a picture here.

The whole thing hinges on a
pulsed light system, new design.

l hear a rival company
are building a replica.

- lndustrial espionage.
- Right.

l'll give you just 12 hours to kick
Paul Foster out of this studio.

- What's he got to do with it?
- He's the one l talked with.

- Where?
- Does it make any difference?

- Where did you discuss it?
- ln his apartment.

- lt's a pretty long shot.
- lt's a pretty hairy coincidence.

- Anything?
- Nothing.

Foster's no fool. He would have
run the standard check every week.

- What did Henderson say?
- He wasn't available.

l don't know why l bothered.

He wouldn't be interested unless
we get something concrete.

- You'd better reassemble that.
- Why bother? He won't use it.

Not much wrong with my appetite.

- What time's Webb arriving?
- 2:30. He's a good defender.

- He'll make the appeal stick.
- Yeah. Sure.

What about some more coffee?

l was almost sure.

- There's nothing here. Let's go.
- Wait a minute, Alec.

Now, when Foster was working...

he'd sit here. And when Mason
was here, say they'd driven

over from the studio.

What would Foster do?

- Environmental therapy.
- Let's check it again.

Positive!

Let's take this place apart.
Get a group over here.

Here's another one.

Very clever setup.

Two audio transmitters and
three miniaturised cameras.

Activated by display lights.

We found this on some waste
ground about a mile away.

- Tape recorder.
- With a built-in radio receiver.

When this starts transmitting,
it receives and records the data.

Then the contact comes
along and picks up a tape.

Let's find out where
this is made.

- Who runs this place?
- l do. Who are you?

l believe this is yours.

- Maybe. Maybe not.
- Now look, funny man.

Miss... Get lost.

- This is private property!
- There are two ways to play this.

One is the easy way.

What do you want?

The name and address of the client
who bought that Peeping Tom.

- Hello. How are they treating you?
- Great.

l've drafted the appeal.
lt needs your signature.

Yes. Valuable document.
Rather fragile, but valuable.

You're a psychiatrist, Jackson.

Does Commander Straker
have an artistic temperament?

No. l don't think so.

Then why would he have a display
like this behind his desk?

l've often thought about it.

Maybe it soothes his nerves.

What would you say is the
strongest instinct in man?

Love? Hate?

- Self-preservation?
- Guards!

The target's Colonel Foster,
804. Alert groups 2 and 3.

l want a pick-up on Miss
Jane Grant. Address...

124, Eastern Avenue.

You got that? Right.

At the studio. Put me through
to General Henderson, please.

Priority A. This l am
going to enjoy.

You may have new evidence,
but l've got something for you.

Foster escaped 20 minutes ago.
Groups 2 and 3 were alerted.

What?
But you can't do that.

Foster knows the complete setup.
He was found guilty of espionage.

l'm not risking the organisation
for one man.

- My orders are to shoot on sight.
- But his apartment was bugged.

Or was it his way of
passing the information?

lt's gonna take positive proof
of innocence to convince me.

We need an affidavit from that
Miss Grant, and fast.

- ls Miss Grant here?
- Yes, sir, she's in your office.

Thank you, Ford.

l assume you have a good reason
why l've been brought here.

- You are an industrial spy.
- lt all sounds so sordid.

You had an apartment bugged.
lt belonged to Paul Foster.

- Did l?
- You were supplied by Singleton.

- He's told us everything.
- l suggest you call the police.

You know as well as l, industrial
espionage is not indictable.

Then have me driven home.

- This is an acoustic gun.
- l have heard of them.

Oh, excuse the pun!

- l'm a desperate man, Miss Grant.
- Armed with a toy gun?

lf l fire it against your ear, the

sound will pierce your eardrum.

l'm also told that the brain
suffers varying degrees of damage.

Even if l believed that, l don't
believe that you're desperate.

Believe it.

Unless you sign a confession,
somebody is going to die.

Just sign here.

A signed affidavit.
Get Henderson.

lt's too late. He just called.
Foster's been shot.

- l'd like to see him, Miss Scott.
- l'll see if he's in.

- l have someone to see you, sir.
- Send Straker right in.

- Please go in.
- Thank you.

Straker. Must be my year.
This is your second visit

l'd like you to read this,

when you find time between
making up wisecracks.

lt includes a statement which
absolutely clears Paul Foster.

- Statement?
- From an industrial spy.

A Miss Grant. She was after
information at the studio.

Our stuff was
incidental.

You were wrong, Jackson.

Paul Foster was guilty of one
thing. He worked nights at home.

He wrote orders to Moonbase and
Skydiver while a couple of

cameras in the wall took shots.

You can prove this?

Does it matter?

l only hope it keeps you awake
nights, thinking about it.

Just a moment.

You think l'm a pig-headed,
cretinous lout, don't you?

Foster was shot with an
anaesthetic bullet.

Jackson's idea.

Don't fall over with gratitude!

You think l'm a pig-headed,
cretinous lout, don't...

l like it. l like it.

Very nice of you to ask us down.

l just wanted to give you this.

You did pay $10,000 into
my account, didn't you?

Yes, but no one can tell where
it came from. You understand?

When you came for the screen
test, l didn't know what you

meant by "we can help each other."
Now l understand, only too well.

- Get yourself a new agent, kid.
- Don't be like that.

You don't know how much
that cheque nearly cost me.

So get out of here while
you can still walk.

Foster! Where have you been?
Sunning yourself on some beach?

- Wait a minute.
- This is a film studio.

lt has one function - to make
motion pictures, all right?

Let's go.
