And to the general public,
it sounded like
707

when in actual fact,

00:52:34,689 --> 00:52:37,019

709

instead of marking X on a window
710
00:52:41,025 --> 00:52:43,729
or hiding microfilm
in a hollow tooth,
711
00:52:44,098 --> 00:52:46,193
these sons of bitches
had the audacity
712
00:52:46,228 --> 00:52:48,371
to send their top-secret
transmission
713
00:52:49,040 --> 00:52:52,309

717
00:53:01,721 --> 00:53:03,287
