(fanfare music)

(dramatic music)

- Your Cognac, madam.

Whiskey, monsieur.

Are you alright, sir?

Excuse me, Doctor Poulton.

- Yes, what is it?

- I am sorry to disturb you, doctor,

but I wonder if you'll be kind enough

to look at one of the passengers.

He became ill soon after take off.

I gave him some Sulfonamide
about an hour ago,

but it doesn't seem to do any good.

If anything, it looks worse.

- Very well.

- Is there anything I
could do to help, doctor?

- Oh no, it's quite alright,

you just leave him to me.

I'll call you if I want any help.

There's no point in worrying
any of the other passengers.

(buzzing)

I want to have a word with the
Captain, it's rather urgent.

- The Captain?

- Yes, the Captain.

Unless I'm very badly mistaken,

we have a case of typhoid on board.

(dramatic music)

(gun firing)

- Ladies and gentlemen,
please remain in your seats.

(speaking in a foreign language)

- Dr. Poulton?

I'm Summers, medical staff.

- Oh, the patient's just here.

-[Summers] Oh, it's lucky
you're on board, doctor.

- Oh, yes.

Have you made all the
necessary arrangements?

- Oh yes, the passengers
will be kept in quarantine

for observation and examination.

- And the suspect?

- He'll be transferred to the
isolation hospital at Corning.

- Well, look, if there's
anything I can do to help,

and perhaps if I went to
the hospital with him,

I could make my tests out there.

- That certainly would help.

I can let you have one of my staff.

- Oh, it's quite
unnecessary, I cam manage.

(dramatic music)

(siren blaring)

He's getting worse.

I think you better pull him to the side.

- We're nearly at the hospital, sir.

- I don't want to take any chances,

I'm going to give him an injection.

Can you come around and give me a hand?

- Yes sir.

(muffled gun firing)

- We've made it Kent.

- It worked like a dream,
just as I knew it would.

- Now your only problem is John Mannering.

- Not my only problem, doctor.

(dramatic music)

(muffled gun firing)

- Cork (snapping).

(speaking in a foreign language)

Ah,

superb.

A wine of genius,

Bella Monte Sai '55.

- No, monsieur, Pouilly Fuisse '57.

- You are right, of course.

Always remember, my
friend, in these affairs,

the customer is always a
little more right than you are.

Unless you learn that simple lesson,

you will be a waiter all your life.

- My error, Bella Monte Sai, '55.

- Excellent Paul.

Now, let us see what you have got for me.

(phone ringing)

Colbert.

- Yes, Jordon.

- Leave me, go.

Hello?

- Very important business is flourishing.

- The typhoid, did it prove to be fatal?

- Most unusual, the patient survived,

but the doctor died.

When will you be in London?

- Tomorrow afternoon.

What is your next move?

- Me?

I have to settle something with The Baron.

- Washington has confirmed
that Faberge sale,

did you get that off?

- Mm hmm, Tuesday.

- Good, good.

- Well, well, an invitation
from Lord Mountford.

You really do know everybody, don't you?

For tonight.

Wonder who backed out at the last minute.

- Never mind that.

He's a good customer.

I guess I better look in.

- I should think so,

with his millions, it's
practically a command.

- Practically.

Go ahead and confirm it, will you?

- Yes, certainly.

I'll tell him we'll be delighted.

- We?

- Well it does say John
Mannering and friend.

(ominous music)

(phone ringing)

- Hello, John Mannering.

-[Peter] Hello John, Peter Thompson here.

- Well hello Pete.

How are you?

It's been a long time.

-[Peter] I need some help.

Do you think you could do me a favor

and get over here this morning?

- Well I'm a little
busy this morning Pete.

Is anything that important?

-[Peter] 10:30 then.

I'll explain later.

I'd rather not discuss it on the phone.

- Well, look, Pe--

- What's wrong, been cut-off?

- Yeah.

- That thing's been on
the blink all morning.

- That was Peter Thompson,
got some kind of problem,

wants me to come over.

I shouldn't be too long.

(ominous music)

(car starting)

- Good morning.

May I see your telephone please?

It's possible you've had trouble with it.

- Yes we have, but I
haven't even reported it.

- Ah, we have been checking the lines.

Through here, is it?

- I hope you don't mind, but
have you any identification?

- Of course.

- Thank you.

Mr. Tourig.

Just being careful, we have
so many valuable things here.

- Yes.

- Seems to have gone completely dead now.

- I will soon put it right.

-[Cordelia] But I
haven't even reported it.

-[Tourig] Oh, you've had trouble with it.

-[Cordelia] Yes we have.

(fast forwarding)

- There you are.

You'll have no more trouble with that.

- Thank you very much.

- It has been a pleasure.

- You're back quickly.

- Yeah.

You know Thompson didn't make that call.

He's not even in the country.

I'd like to think it was an impersonation

by some practical joker,
but I recognized the voice,

which means that somebody probably went

to the trouble of getting it on tape.

- But why?

I mean, you were bound to find out.

- Yeah.

Anything unusual happen while
I was out of the office?

- Telephone engineer
came to repair the phone.

- Oh?

- I asked him for his credentials.

His name was Tourig,
that's Polish, isn't it?

- Eh, could be.

- As a foreigner, his
accent was more French,

I would've thought.

- Check him out with the Post Office?

- Well no.

I mean, he wasn't alone in the shop,

not even for one second,
and he did repair the phone.

It was dead, I checked it.

I didn't report it was
out of order, though.

Well, you know what they are.

When my phone went wrong in
the apartment last month,

took them a week to come and repair it.

What's that?

He bugged it.

- That's right.

- What are you gonna do?

- Well, I'm gonna put
this phone back together

and call the police.

- Come in Mr. Mannering, do sit down.

It was good of you to come so soon.

- Well, it isn't every
day that I get called

from the British Foreign Office.

- Well, now, we, ah, that is
my department has been informed

that you made a report to
the police this morning.

You stated that your shop
premises had been bugged.

Is that correct, Mr. Mannering?

- That's correct.

- You quite sure about that?

- Of course I'm sure.

Didn't I tell you?

I gave the microphone to the police.

- Oh, yes, yes, yes, yes,
yes, I see, I'm sorry.

- Mr. Foster, I'd like
to ask you a question.

- Certainly.

- Why is the Foreign Office so interested?

- I'm afraid we can't tell you that.

- Can't or won't.

- My superiors pass on
only such information

as they feel I require.

- Then maybe I should
talk to your superiors.

- I'm afraid that would be
very difficult to lay on.

Perhaps I should come to the point.

I have been instructed
to ask you officially,

not to take this matter any further.

- Look, Mr. Foster,
when my shop is bugged,

I want to know why.

My business is not chicken
feed and I'm not in it for fun.

Now, if you can't tell me
and your superiors won't,

I'm sorry, but I'll have to take steps

to find out about it myself.

- I do wish you wouldn't take
this attitude, Mr. Mannering.

I must impress upon
you that there has been

a high-level policy
decision about this matter.

- No, there've been two.

One by you, and now one by me.

- Well, naturally, we can't force you

not to take any action.

- Well, that's all I want to know.

- Now, look, Mannering,

oh, how can I put this?

In mind other circumstances,

particularly bearing in mind that you are,

oh, how shall I put it?

Persona grata as far as
we're concerned here.

Well, anyway, in other circumstances,

if you were the only one
involved in this business,

well, naturally, our
attitude would be entirely--

- Wait just a minute.

Let me get this straight.

Are you saying that other
officers have been bugged?

- I didn't say that Mr. Mannering.

- But you're not denying it.

- Obviously I'm denying it now.

- Good day Mr. Foster.

- As I do hope you'll think
this matter over very carefully

before taking any hasty action.

- I'll do just that.

(phone ringing)

- Coleman speaking.

- Ah, hello Quintin,
this is John Mannering.

- John, how are you?

- I'm just fine.

Look, I'll tell you why I called.

Do you know that early
Wedgwood that's going

at the Collingwood Auction tomorrow?

Well, I'm not interested myself,

but I thought I'd let you know.

- Oh, that's very kind of you John.

- Look, I'm sorry to call you at home,

but I wasn't able to get you
on your office phone today.

- Oh, the engineers came in,

said they detected some forger.

- I see.

- Well, it's kind of you
to let me know, John,

and I appreciate it.

- Bye.

Are you going somewhere?

- I don't know about you,

but I'm going to Lord Mountford's.

- Oh yes, oh yes.

Take a look at those names I checked.

Three biggest art dealers
in the country had trouble

with their phones today.

I have a feeling it's phone trouble

with an official blessing.

- Any idea what it all means?

- I think one of us is
gonna get into a deal,

somebody wants to know which
one of us it's gonna be.

You can bet that beautiful gown

you're wearing it's gonna be big.

- Glad you noticed.

(laughing)

- I haven't seen John this evening.

Was he able to get here?

- Yes, he's over there.

- Oh yes, excuse me.

- So, if the varnish dissolves rapidly,

it means the painting is
recent, and probably fake.

Of course, the ultimate test is style.

- John, are they looking
after you alright?

- Fine, thank you.

- I'm glad you were able
to manage it, at last.

(sighing) Sorry about the short notice,

but this was a spur-of-the-moment party.

- Well, that seems to
be the way to do things.

- (laughing) I'm glad you agree.

Come to think of it,

I'm negotiating a purchase at the moment.

I won't bore you with details now,

but I know it's in your line.

Could I contact you?

- I'm still at the same address.

- Good, well, I'll be in touch.

I've had a word with
Mannering, he's agreeable.

- It's up to you Mountford.

What did you tell him?

- Nothing, you think I'm a fool?

- Just checking.

I think it'll be better for all of us

if Mannering is kept in the dark.

Once he does know, it'll be too
late for him to do anything.

(dramatic music)

- Goodnight Allison.

Goodnight Charles.

- Grand party.

- Thank you.

Are you off?

I'm so glad you could both come.

- Thank you, I enjoyed it very much.

- Well, you must both come again soon.

Ah, you won't forget that
other business, will you John?

- You call me when you're ready.

- You know, I could settle it right away.

When would you be available?

- Well, I have to go to
Washington on Friday.

I think I'm free 'til then.

- I'd like to get it settled.

It's been dragging on as it is.

How are you fixed tomorrow?

- It's possible, depending
on what's involved.

- Nothing very complicated.

I just want your opinion
on the authenticity

of a painting I'm interested in.

It's at my place down in Surrey.

- Surrey, I see--

- I tell you what.

I'll collect you in my car,

and we can discuss it on the way down.

- What time?

- Five o'clock suit you?

- Five o'clock it is.

- Good, good, well, I'm
glad we got that settled.

- We enjoyed it.

Goodnight Lord Mountford.

- Goodnight.

Goodnight Cordelia.
- Goodbye.

- Tomorrow, five o'clock.

- Cable Colbert, he's
arriving from Paris tomorrow.

- Your organization can look
after its own chores, Jordon,

I'm just the buyer.

- Cable him.

Now that Mannering's in, I want

to keep tabs on him
'til this thing's over.

(dramatic music)

(car starting)

- Lord Mountford certainly
knows how to barbecue steaks.

- Oh, he's not bad, for an amateur.

You cook that several hours
over a green hickory wood fire,

and serve it with fresh baked bread.

- Mm, sounds delicious.

- Then you can wash the whole
thing down with tequila,

of course that's optional.

- Sounds like a good idea.

- Oh?

Well I know a little
place in the King's Road.

Sorry, shortcut.

- What's so interesting back there?

- Well, I wouldn't swear to it,

but I think we've picked up a tail,

unless he wants tequila too.

- How long's he been there?

- Almost since Mountford's.

Let's see if he sticks.

- He's still there.

- Be a pity to lose him.

- What do you mean?

- I think it's time we knew
who's who in this business.

- John, this is a dead end.

- Exactly.

- John, he's the one who fixed the phone.

- Wait here.

(suspenseful music)

- 'Tis about time we
had a talk, Mannering.

- Who are you, who are you working for?

And don't say the telephone company.

- This is big, very big.

I want to know where you stand.

- You bugged my office, why?

- Suppose you answer my question first.

You talked to Mountford tonight.

- Sure, I talked to him.

- What did he say?

Did he offer you a deal?

If we are to talk, one of us has

to put our cards on the table.

- Agreed.

I'm waiting.

Before I break a loyalty to a client,

you'll have to give me a pretty
good reason why I should.

- Alright Mannering, I'll
give you the whole stor--

(gun firing)

- He's still alive.

- That's odd.

That's French intelligence isn't it?

- Yes.

(speaking in a foreign language)

Yes, the latest news is that
he is still unconscious.

We owe you our thanks, Mr. Mannering.

- I think you owe me an explanation.

- While you chose to ignore our request

to stay out of this matter, but frankly,

I don't all together blame you.

You did make your position clear.

- I thought perhaps I had.

- On Tuesday night a certain
item was stolen in Paris.

- A certain item.

- That's right, a certain item.

Now the man thought to be responsible

for stealing this item,

well known to the French authorities.

However, their view is, rightly, I think,

that the recovery of the
item is more important

than the capture of these men.

- Why not try for both?

- Well, now you've brought
me to my point, Mannering.

To quote your own words,
this item isn't chicken feed,

and no one is in this business for fun.

Now these men aren't fools,

but then neither are
the French authorities.

Although this item is very
well known, very well known,

they had managed to suppress completely

the news of its disappearance.

Hence, by the way, the
secrecy and double-talk

of our first meeting,
for which I apologize.

Now, here's the situation.

The thieves have the item,

and they have stolen
it to sell, of course,

but because the news of its disappearance

from its usual place has been suppressed,

they have no means of convincing
a prospective customer

that it is genuine,

unless they manage the secure the services

of an art expert, who could give them

a worthwhile verification
of its authenticity.

- So Sir Dan is keeping tabs
on all the London art dealers.

I assume this item is in the country then.

- Yes.

Well that is said, I'm
almost certain that it is,

brought in by a man called Kent Jordon.

He got through our customs

and immigration as a typhoid suspect.

Very clever.

I'm sorry we couldn't tell
you why you were involved,

and we gave you a security clearance

with the French authorities, but well,

you know what the French
are, they suspect everyone.

However, when you see what
it was that was stolen,

you won't entirely blame them.

(dramatic music)

Astonishing, isn't it?

- Yes.

If this gets out, the whole world

will sit up and take notice.

- Open the window.

Now that the British have, at last,

discovered central heating,

every room is like a Turkish bath.

And tell the valet to
come and unpack my bags.

- Right away, sir.

Anything else, sir?

- At the moment, no.

Ah.

- French money?

- You wish to give it back?

-[Jordon] May I come in?

- Ah, Jordon (laughing), come in, come in.

- Good flight?

- There is no such thing.

I sat palpitating with fear
throughout the entire journey.

True, I seem to have
arrived, but I assure you,

parts of me are still coming into land.

Now, to business.

- It's going exactly as you planned.

- Naturally, and how's the
good Lord Mountford standing up

to the strain?

- His nerves are a little ragged,

but he'll get through.

- And the money, he has it ready?

- He says so.

I don't doubt him.

He's very eager to have our merchandise.

- He is following our orders.

- Reluctantly, yes, mm,
he's following orders.

- Stay with him.

See that he continues to do so.

- Is that all?

- All?

What else?

- I thought you might ask
me to stay and have a drink.

- With you? (laughing)

Perhaps later, when we divide
Lord Mountford's money.

Ah, but I remember,
you drink only bourbon.

Ah, no, see, I think paperies
of mine could not permit

when I am taking wine.

- You know Colbert, you and I
have only one thing in common,

we're both thieves.

- There is something else.

We both dislike one another.

Well, I suggest you go
straight to Lord Mountford's

and finish the arrangements.

I want this whole transaction
completed tonight,

the merchandise handed over
and the money collected.

- And The Baron?

- Ah, and The Baron.

Dead.

(dramatic music)

- What happened with The Baron last night?

I thought you were gonna
keep an eye on him.

- He was being tailed, by an
agent of the French government,

and I thought I better
take care of him instead.

- An agent?

Did he talk to The Baron?

- Yes, briefly.

Don't you any bourbon?

- How much does Mannering know?

- Why ask me?

It doesn't matter much anyway,

you'll know the whole thing tonight,

and after that, he won't get
a chance to tell anybody.

- Look, Jordon, I want to buy what you

and your friends are selling,

but I think you're taking chances.

I've got a lot to lose.

- You're quite safe.

Don't you understand Mannering at all?

He won't take any chances
with what we've got.

- But he's bound to try and get it back.

- But alone.

He'd rather have himself killed

than risk it being destroyed.

You must have some bourbon somewhere.

- That agent, what about him?

- Hmm?

Oh, he's being given some time off.

(glass breaking)

- Oh, please Mr. Cerdan.

- How long have I been here?

- Since last night.

Now you mustn't talk.

Just get some rest.

- Yes, yes, I know.

I must contact,

I can't stay here.

- You must do as I say,
otherwise I'll fetch the doctor.

- Yes, yes, fetch him.

I want to talk to the doctor.

Please get him nurse.

- I will.

(ominous music)

(car starting)

- Hey.

- I've got it tuned.

- You've got it tuned.

- There's a tea sip on the back of this,

and as long as you stick
it on the side of the car,

I'll be able to track you.

- Look, everybody knows how a bug works,

and they've got ways of detecting 'em.

Just call Foster at the Foreign Office

if you haven't heard from me by 7:30.

- I wish you'd leave this to
the police or intelligence.

I know you're walking into trouble.

- Well I have no choice.

If they think there's
a cop anywhere near me,

they'll destroy the evidence,

and in this particular case,

the evidence isn't a
grimy set of fingerprints.

- Watch out they don't destroy you.

- If I'm near enough to verify it,

I'm near enough to grab it.

- There's such a thing as overconfidence.

- I know, I invented it.

(knocking)

Would you get that?

- Good evening, I'm from Lord Mountford.

I'm to pick up Mr. Mannering.

- He'll be out in a moment.

The tumbril is here.

- Tumbril?

(laughing) Will you stop
trying to cheer me up.

I thought Lord Mountford
was coming with us?

-[Driver] We're to pick him up, sir.

-[John] I see.

- See you later.

(tuning)

(dramatic music)

- We'll be stopping at
the next block, sir.

(dramatic music)

If you'd care to follow me, sir.

- What's going on?

- Lord Mountford will explain, sir.

He was most concerned about security.

He felt the change of
vehicles was essential.

- Hello Mannering.

I think we might continue our journey now,

without any chance of being followed.

- Something must have gone wrong.

They should have been here ages ago.

-[Colbert] Relax, we would have heard.

If the waiting bothers you, let us talk.

You have got the cash ready, hmm?

- You know I have.

I'll give you details of
how and where to pick it up.

Just as soon as Mannering
says that this is genuine.

- He will.

- Well, I can't believe it.

If this had really been stolen,

surely the newspapers would
have got hold the story by now.

- I have already explained that.

- Alright, alright,
even if the authorities

are keeping it dark, but there
would have been some rumors,

there must have been.

- Lord Mountford,

I'm not an amateur.

I planned and carried out this raid

at a time when the Louvre Museum
was closed for renovations.

It is still closed to the public.

The officials are having
an easy time keeping

its loss a secret.

- Well, they can't keep
it a secret forever.

- No, but for a few days, perhaps a week,

during which time the agents
are trying to track us down

to put it back where it belongs,

but, quietly, hmm?

Without fuss (laughing).

Everything is happening
exactly as I predicted.

I knew that the absence of
publicity would cause you

to doubt whether this was genuine.

That is why I insisted
that you call in the pro.

His word will be all the
assurance you need, hmm?

- Yes, yes of course.

I just wish it was over, that's all.

- That makes me feel much better.

Thanks.

- Don't you think we
should tell the police?

- No.

Mannering was quite right.

We cannot afford to take chances.

- We've got to do something.

- Yes, find Mannering,

and that should not be too
difficult with your radio fix.

- The car's been stationary for some time.

It's located exactly there.

- That must be where the handler is to be.

Shall we go?

- How much farther?

- We're here.

(horn honking)

(dramatic music)

- Alright, let's go.

They're waiting for us.

Keep walking.

Put your things on the table.

Richards, frisk him.

-[Richards] Hello.

-[Colbert] Ah, you came prepared.

Quite understandable.

- Did everything go alright?

You were late.

-[Jordon] I made certain we
weren't followed, that's all.

-[Colbert] I see you have
all the things you need

to make the identification.

- Naturally.

- I must apologize for putting you

through this inconvenience Mannering,

but before Mountford and
I can complete our deal,

he has insisted that you
make this verification.

-[Cordelia] Any luck?

- I looked through the
buildings all around, nothing.

You?

- All the offices are empty.

I talked to the janitor.

The building belongs to Lord Mountford,

but he hasn't been here today.

- Then this could have
been a rendezvous point.

Perhaps they just met up
here and went off somewhere.

- But where?

- I can't even guess.

The trail leads nowhere.

There's only one thing that is certain,

Mannering is all on his own.

There is nothing we
can do to help him now.

- You know Mannering, when the details

of the raid are published,
you'll be astonished,

both by its brilliance and its simplicity.

- Well, there's still
time to change your mind.

- But why?

- If this is genuine, you can swing a deal

with the French government.

- (chuckling) A reward, you mean?

Oh, no, no, no, I don't think so.

- Well, why not?

They want it badly enough.

They'll pay your price,
no questions asked.

- But why should I take that risk?

Lord Mountford has met my asking price,

he has the money, the
transaction is almost completed.

- Well, the trading may be over,

but the running hasn't begun yet.

They'll never stop looking for you.

- You think I did not
calculate every risk?

Of course I know they will search for me,

but with the money I shall have,

it will be easy for me
to keep out of their way.

- Well, is it genuine?

- Yes, it's genuine.

(groaning)

- Didn't you hear what he said?

(gun firing)

It's genuine, the painting.

(gun firing)

Don't shoot, you might damage it.

(gun firing)

- You fool.

You stupid fool.

You've made fools of us all.

- Listen to me.

I want that painting,

more than anything on Earth, I want it,

and if I can't have it,
it must never be damaged.

Never.

(gun firing)

- Well?

- Foster was not in his office.

I got his home address.

I tried to get him there,
but there was no answer.

- It's not that far away.

We could go and wait.

- Yes, not much else we can do.

Our only hope now is perhaps he's got

in touch with one of our other agents.

-[Officer] Excuse me, sir.

Is this your car?

- Yes.

- Could you tell me the
registration number, sir?

- Can't remember.

- Could you tell me where
it was licensed then, sir?

- I'm not sure.

- I think you both better come down

to the station with me, sir.

- I'm sick of waiting.

I'm going to get that painting.

- Stay here.

- I can't risk what that
fool, Jordon, might do.

I want that painting.

(dramatic music)

- Alright Mannering.

Where is it?

- Well, here it is.

It's what you want, isn't it?

- Just give me that painting.

- Alright.

Catch.

- You fool Mannering, you fool.

I can't reach it.

I can't reach it.

It's starting to burn.

It's burning.

You've destroyed it.

I must get it.

Help me, somebody, help me.

-[Colbert] Have you come
to take me in, Mannering?

- Something like that.

- Not with that gun, it's empty.

- I know, but it's the only one I had.

Well, in any case, it's all over.

- I will decide that.

- Alright.

- What, what do you mean?

- I burnt the painting.

- (laughing) No, no, not
you Mannering, not you.

- Ask Mountford.

- He burnt it.

He burnt the painting.

- You burnt it?

Everything I worked for.

(gun firing)

- Like you said, I came prepared.

Now let's go.

Don't count on any help from your friend,

he's all through.

Gentlemen, if you'll just wait right here.

- We did it.

Soon it will be back in its place again

without anyone ever knowing it was away.

Please accept my thanks, and
the thanks of my country.

What else can I say?

- Well, you could make me a promise.

-[Cerdan] Hmm?

- If it ever goes come up for sale,

you could let me handle the deal.

(upbeat music)
