Original subtitles

Good morning, Mr. Phelps.

The people you're looking at have become useless catatonics

from being used as guinea pigs in experiments

with a compound called B-230.

It is a super-hypnotic mind-controlling drug

being developed by this man, Dr. Karl Turek.

The solution to Turek's problem of B-230's catatonic side effects

is in the hands of two disloyal American scientists,

Dr. Arthur Jarvis, and his wife, Vera, who have undergone plastic surgery.

Their defection in Geneva is now being arranged

by this man, Colonel Borodin.

Once they are working together,

Turek's country will soon have the power to enslave the free world.

Your mission, Jim, should you decide to accept it,

is to stop Turek and B-230.

As always, should you or any of your IM Force be caught or killed,

the secretary will disavow any knowledge of your actions.

This tape will self-destruct in five seconds.

Good luck, Jim.

It will take at least two hours for the B-230 to saturate the water system.

The evening mass is at 5.

You'll have to get to the top of the tower before 3.

Right.

Meredyth.

Now, this is our drug.

We're calling it Voliticon.

Willy will have to provide the necessary symptoms.

Voliticon is an inert stable compound, completely devoid of effect.

Now, these photographs are of the Jarvises after plastic surgery.

They were being sent to Colonel Borodin.

We intercepted them.

And these are being sent to Borodin instead.

Now, Paris, how are your legal studies?

Fine. The proper punches on this card

will give Major Deva all the necessary qualifications.

And Major Deva expects to conduct the trial

with a modicum of brilliance, provided I get my surprise witness.

You will,

with the help of this.

All it contains is a tranquilizer.

Meredyth provides the realism.

What are you trying to do, colonel?

It is why they defected...

Perhaps. But Dr. Arthur Jarvis has come up

with a completely new approach.

What is this new approach?

A new compound, Voliticon.

I will need a human subject for my experiment tomorrow, colonel.

A new consignment of prisoners will be arriving soon.

Take your pick.

Colonel Borodin is giving us trouble again.

Yes.

But all we need is a complete success with one of the prisoners

and we can be rid of him.

We can be rid of all of them.

Which one should we start with first?

No, take me.

Do what you want to me.

We will.

Oh, no.

No, you'd never get away with it. Murder's out of the question.

I did not say we had to murder anyone.

I saw a very interesting experiment today.

It's a moment of glory for your husband

and I believe the answer to all our problems.

What do you mean?

Voliticon.

A man under its influence will do anything, even kill.

Himself, someone else,

a friend, perhaps.

What are you doing here?

Arthur,

- kill Borodin. - What?

You've drugged him.

He's dead.

Arthur, put your gun away.

Now... Now take care of Borodin's body and hide it in the trunk of your car.

You'll drive your car out of the compound

and turn south onto the main highway.

Proceed 20 kilometres to Mordo Cliffs

and at the point, you will drive your car over the cliffs.

- Do you understand? - Yes.

Oh, you know, Martyn, she's not the same girl in there.

It amazes me to find out just what she will do.

No, please, no, no!

Stop it, please.

Martyn!

He's dead.

Without him, we have no trial.

The whole mission depended upon Borodin being our witness.

Please, let me out.

Please.

No. No, please.

No, please, no.

No.

No! Please, no! No! No. No, please.

Please.

You don't feel sad anymore, do you, Katherine?

- No. - In fact, you feel happy

now that Martyn is dead.

You would have killed him yourself if I had asked you to,

wouldn't you, Katherine?

Yes, I would have.

And now you will do anything I ask.

Of course.

Open the door.

Come here, Katherine.

Katherine, come here.

Take her back to the ward room.

Anything?

No.

Is there any alternative to the trial?

No, I've tried all the other logical approaches.

None of them exposes Turek

and none of them will force him to use B-230.

The trial is the only way.

But, Jim, you can't risk that.

Without Borodin, it's just your word against Turek.

I need proof of my story if they're gonna believe me.

We're right back where we started.

Yeah.

Unless...

Unless we can supply them with a piece of evidence

that'll support my accusation.

Just hit this switch, Jim.

Right.

Arthur should have driven the car off the cliffs by now.

Call them.

Military Police, please.

Naturally, General Zagin, the premier was pleased.

Very pleased.

What happened to Dr. Turek?

He will be phased out quickly.

Even though Voliticon will be more expensive,

well, it does work.

With Dr. Turek, we have only probables.

But can we control Dr. Jarvis?

Yeah. I think so.

He and Colonel Borodin have a fine working arrangement.

Enter.

What...? What is it, Major Alud?

Dr. Jarvis has just shot and killed Colonel Borodin.

- What? - I do not believe it.

It's true. His wife has just informed us.

Where is Dr. Jarvis now?

He escaped in his car.

Have Mrs. Jarvis brought here.

- And cordon off all the roads. - Yes, sir.

This could be very awkward.

- You mean, in respect to Voliticon? - Yes.

Dr. Jarvis is the sole key to its composition.

We are in a difficult situation.

You better have Dr. Turek come over.

Perhaps he will not be phased out so quickly after all.

Now, do you have the story clear?

Yes.

You were in the laboratory all the time.

Good, good, good.

- How are the experiments progressing? - We are getting closer.

We still have the catatonic side effects

but the period where the subject's will is suspended is becoming longer.

Make the next set of programmed recalculations

and continue experimentation on the girl. Also, double her dosage.

That could be dangerous.

She could slip into catatonia permanently.

No, no, no, a shock to her nervous system could be all that is needed.

Besides, we must take this chance.

Dr. Turek.

Yes. Yes, General Zagin.

Yes.

Yes, I shall be there right away.

About two hours ago,

Arthur brought Colonel Borodin home with him.

They'd both been drinking heavily.

They were celebrating the success of Voliticon.

However, the mood changed rapidly when the colonel became evasive

about when Arthur would take over as head of the institute.

It was part of an arrangement between them.

When Colonel Borodin stopped being evasive

and said in fact, it wouldn't be for some time,

Arthur became furious.

And the colonel said he would discuss it later when Arthur was sober.

And he tried to leave but Arthur got his gun

and he said the colonel wasn't going anywhere.

And then the argument got worse and worse

and the second time the colonel tried to leave, Arthur shot him.

Thank you, Mrs. Jarvis.

Enter.

They just found Dr. Jarvis' car.

Went over Mordo Cliffs.

Colonel Borodin's body was found in the trunk, badly burned.

And Dr. Jarvis?

Apparently he was thrown from the car.

He is alive

and in custody.

What will happen to my husband?

He will be tried for murder, Mrs. Jarvis.

I see.

May I return to my quarters?

Yes, of course.

I will have a car brought around for you.

I shall be very happy to drive Mrs. Jarvis back to her quarters

if you have no further business, deputy premier.

I want this trial to be conducted as speedily and as efficiently as possible.

Yes, deputy premier.

Major Alud, you will be the chief prosecutor.

We want no implications of any star chamber.

Go through the files and find who is best qualified to handle the defence.

Yes, sir.

What are we gonna do?

Why didn't he die?

I do not know.

But we must not panic.

After all, it will be his word against ours.

- Yes, but... - No one will believe him.

He has no evidence. Just a wild story.

Believe me, no one will believe him. No one.

I was hoping we would not require your services, major,

but Dr. Jarvis refuses to sign the confession

in spite of the overwhelming evidence against him.

General, I demand to know what's being done about the lawyer I requested.

One has been appointed for you by the court. Major Deva.

Oh, I see.

Just what sort of defence is this puppet of yours supposed to give me?

I can assure you, Dr. Jarvis,

that Major Deva is both competent and unbiased.

I'm supposed to take your word for that, am I?

Well, I don't want him.

The feeling is becoming mutual, Dr. Jarvis.

You will either accept Major Deva as your counsel

or you will have none at all.

You don't leave me much choice.

All right.

- What happened? - I want you to get to Meredyth.

Borodin's death was an accident.

Without Borodin, Jim has no case.

Yeah, he does. He's figured out a new strategy.

But it's gonna take some literary skill.

Now, Dr. Jarvis, who shot Colonel Borodin?

My husband.

Would you explain the events

leading up to the tragic slaying of Colonel Borodin?

Arthur had left for the laboratory to show the experiment on Voliticon

to the deputy premier.

Arthur then got his gun.

Colonel Borodin tried to calm him down

but Arthur was simply furious.

And when the colonel tried to leave, Arthur shot him.

That's not true! It is not true! That's not what happened!

- Order, please. - No, no, no. Vera, what...?

What are you trying to do to me?

Then anyone, under the influence of Voliticon,

will do anything he is ordered?

Yes.

Human will is suspended.

I see.

Now, who killed Colonel Borodin?

Well, in a technical sense, I did.

But I was under the influence of Voliticon.

I was ordered to kill Colonel Borodin.

And who ordered you?

Dr. Turek.

Did he also tell you to drive off Mordo Cliffs?

Yes.

Now, a hypothetical question.

Suppose General Zagin was under the influence of Voliticon,

and he was ordered to use his troops to seize the capital

or suppose the deputy premier was ordered to betray his country...

- I object to these questions! - Yes, they would have no choice.

Then you did not like Colonel Borodin?

I will not deny that there was some friction between us

but purely of a professional basis.

Is that why you had him passed over when his promotion came up?

Objection.

I withdraw the question.

You do not like Dr. Jarvis either, do you?

No, that is not true, major.

But there was no friendship between you.

There was no time for any to develop.

But there had been time for you to become friendly with Mrs. Jarvis.

No, how could there be?

I did not see Mrs. Jarvis till after Colonel Borodin was killed.

You did not see her before that time?

No, sir, I did not.

No further questions...

...at this time.

I call Mrs. Vera Jarvis to the stand.

Which, in your opinion, is the better drug,

B-230 or Voliticon?

Potentially, they're of equal value.

But you would rather see Dr. Turek's B-230 produced than Voliticon,

isn't that true, Mrs. Jarvis?

L...

I withdraw the question.

Now, how would you describe your relationship with Dr. Jarvis

prior to his shooting Colonel Borodin?

I don't understand.

Very simply. Were you friendly with him?

Did he love you?

Major, we're both scientists.

Sometimes, because of our work, certain sacrifices had to be made.

I see.

You never had any children, did you, Mrs. Jarvis?

No, we...

Well, Dr. Turek has testified that he had not seen you

prior to Colonel Borodin's death, correct?

- Yes. - But you were old friends.

Surely he would have made

- some effort to see you. - No.

- He never telephoned? - No.

- Never arranged to meet? - No.

- Never communicated in any way? - No.

Does this look familiar?

It is a diary, Mrs. Jarvis.

Your diary.

How dare you!

That's my personal property. You had no right to take it.

It is a personal diary which Mrs. Jarvis has kept over the past several months.

However, we shall only be concerned with the last few entries.

Would you please read where I have marked, Mrs. Jarvis?

- Mrs. Jarvis? - No.

You are instructed to read, Mrs. Jarvis.

"I know now what Arthur intends to do with me.

The gun proves his intentions.

What can I do?

I feel so hopelessly trapped.

There is no one left to turn to now except Karl.

But I can't involve him.

It might cost him his life.

Ever since I arrived, I have fought remembering.

The Bucharest conference was so many years ago

and yet it is as real and as alive as yesterday.

If only I could have found the courage to tell him how I felt.

How I admired him. How I wanted him. "

Speak up, Mrs. Jarvis.

"How I admired him.

How I wanted him.

All the years with Arthur

seemed like decades of misery and callousness.

I can't help but feel it would have been different with Karl.

All the days we would have worked together,

all those nights... "

- Major, must I? - Continue, Mrs. Jarvis.

Well, here, the material becomes rather graphic

and is of no particular bearing on the case.

Will you please continue reading here, Mrs. Jarvis.

"I had no other choice but to call Karl.

I have just spoken to him.

The sound of his voice excites me.

He has agreed to come over.

Karl has just left.

He has given me somehow strength to go on.

He believes there is a way out of all our problems. "

It's all fantasy, fantasy. It never happened.

Obviously, Mrs. Jarvis is in no condition to continue.

I suggest that we adjourn for the day.

I also suggest that because of Mrs. Jarvis' testimony,

that she be detained in custody along with Dr. Turek.

But there are no charges against Dr. Turek.

If Dr. Jarvis was drugged and incriminated by Dr. Turek,

then I submit that Dr. Turek will stop at nothing

to ensure his freedom.

If you let him go, you will place the state in great danger.

Place Dr. Turek in protective custody along with Mrs. Jarvis.

General Zagin,

I have done nothing to deserve this.

I have no alternative, Dr. Turek.

But I do share some of your concern, Major Deva.

It's just that I do not believe that the situation

is as dangerous as you make it sound.

After all, this is only an isolated incident.

True. But think how catastrophic it would have been

if Turek had decided to use one of these drugs on a larger scale.

But he did not. If indeed he used any drug at all.

- It is obvious... - No, no, no, I am sorry, Major Deva,

but I do not feel that there is sufficient evidence

to warrant a removal of these compounds

as possible tactical weapons.

Yes, sir.

- But if I may make one suggestion. - Yes?

At least let us put B-230 under the army's control.

At least for the present.

A good suggestion.

I shall be happy to see to it that it is carried out, deputy premier.

Thank you.

Well...

...I will be at the villa if you need me.

Get her ready for experimentation.

How are we feeling?

I prescribe another treatment.

No.

Oh, no, no more, please. Please, don't, no more.

Don't worry, Katherine,

after this time, there won't be any more.

No, please. No, please.

Please.

Oh, please. No more.

You don't want us to use force, do you, Katherine?

Oh, please.

No more.

I wouldn't want to hurt you.

Please.

No, please. Oh, please.

Please. No, no, no more, please.

No.

No, no, no, please. Please, please.

Please, no, please.

No, no, no.

Please.

Please, no.

Please.

No, please.

No! No.

No.

I want to see Dr. Turek.

- No. - What?

Don't eat the food.

I put B-230 in the water tower.

In a matter of minutes, the entire base will be catatonic.

I heard how the trial went and I had to do something.

- It was the only way out. - I agree.

- I'll go round to the front to get the car. - Good.

This is Major Deva.

Yes, Major Deva.

What I had feared has happened, deputy premier.

- What do you mean? - Everybody at

State Security Headquarters has been drugged.

I've just gotten back from the laboratory. The B-230 has been taken.

I believe it is part of a plan to free Turek.

I'm going to try and find him. Come immediately and bring help.

Yes, of course, major.

- The car is ready. - Very good.

It's at the front of the building.

What about them?

Kill them.
