(jubilant music)

(worried music)

- An eight letter word.

Don't forget the man you
elected to government.

Begins with an I.

- Hm.

Try remember.

- Fits, good.

- Compton here, come in.

-[Man] The Baron just passed.

He's alone.

Over.

- We will take it from here.

You go on home.

Over and out.

Right, he's on his way
- Right.

- Let's move.

(apprehensive music)

- I'm tired, I can't keep my eyes open.

- We've got an hour's drive ahead of us.

Why don't you try to catch some sleep?

- Think I'll do that.

Wake me when we get near.

- Alright.

(curious music)

(worried music)

- Okay, out, run.

(motor running)

- What's happening?

- Get down, get down.

Pull that rug over you
and keep out of sight.

- Out.

- If I don't?

- I'll put you out of
there dead if I have to.

- You just won your argument.

- You have a letter in your
pocket stating the time and

place for a meeting.

I want it.

- What letter?

(punches)

- Don't make it tough on yourself.

The letter.

- What do you want me to do,
pull it out with my teeth?

(grunts)

(exciting music)

(punches)

(grunts)

- Put him in your car.

If he gives you any trouble kill him.

Alright.

You go in your car, follow.

(concerned music)

(upbeat theme music)

(gun fires)

(dramatic orchestral music)

(worried music)

(curious music)

I really don't want a murder
rep but if he gives any

trouble don't hesitate.

- Then I better get that
blanket off him before he

suffocates to death.

(train whistling)

- Train coming.

-[Compton] Right, out.

(train roaring)

(sneaking music)

- How you feeling?

- Like a well used punching bag.

You mind if I sit up?

- Help yourself.

(sneaking music)

What are you doing?

- Just wanted to stretch
my legs a little bit.

Give me a hand.

- If you can't get up on your
own, better stay on the floor.

- You look to me like a
man who could use money.

Why don't we make a deal?

- You never give up, do you?

The man I work for pays plenty.

- What, for a couple of
thousand you could buy a lot

of chocolate bars.

(slams)

(screams)

(train whooshing)

Untie my hands.

We got a lot of things
to do and not much time.

- It's horrible.

- Yes it was.

But he was trying to kill you.

(curious music)

- Didn't you find out anything?

- Nothing we don't already know.

Except the man we're supposed
to meet's more important

than we thought.

- Can we make it in time?

- No.

I hope the guy isn't punctual.

- You think they mean to kill him?

- I wouldn't put it past him.

The guys are pros.

(curious music)

- Drive straight on and
park somewhere out of sight.

Stay in the truck unless
you hear from me, okay?

- You think he's arrived yet?

- Don't know, we're a little early.

But not to worry, I'm in no hurry.

Okay, on your way.

(knocks)

(suspicious music)

(curious music)

-[Man] John Mannering?

- Yeah.

Get in.

You didn't sign your letter,
do you mind telling me

who you are?

- Well that's not very important, is it?

I hope you don't mind

but have you got some
means of identification?

- Oh, yes, yes of course.

- I'm sorry if I be over
cautious but I can't

be too careful.

- No.

- Before I left France,
someone tried to kidnap me.

- Kidnap you.

- Yes.

It seems they know I've got some

very valuable information.

And they want if very badly.

But I've been told that you're
an honest man, Mr Mannering.

And that you'll give me a square deal.

- Well I'll do what I can.

Tell me.

What made you pick this
place for a meeting?

- When I knew it, it was
just a disused factory.

I used to play here when I was a kid.

I was surprised when I got here tonight.

They're building everywhere these days.

- Cigarette?

- No.

No, my chest's delicate.

- Oh, I'm sorry.

Well then.

What's this all about?

- Well,

it's a long story.

It's complicated.

If it wouldn't bore you

it would be easier for me
to begin at the beginning.

- Oh I've got all the time in the world.

- Can't be far now.

- We should be there.

From now on we're late.

- I worked in France for years.

I was a male nurse in a hospital at Nice.

Then I met this Englishman
and I went to work for him.

And I was with him 'til he died.

Just a few months ago.

He was good to me.

And he swore that when he passed
on, he'd give me something

of great value.

- Did he say what?

- Yes.

The Corelli Sword.

You know of it?

- Oh, well, what antique dealer doesn't?

It was stolen 30 years ago
from the Corelli collection

and never recovered.

- That's perfectly true.

My patient was the man who stole it.

- But it's in France?

- No.

It's here in England.

Where he hid it shortly after the robbery.

He never dared go back for it.

Anyway, he didn't need the money.

He was wealthy.

And later, well he was too
sick to make the journey.

- But you know where to sword is?

- Yes.

Its whereabouts are my inheritance.

- And

you wanna sell this information?

- Yes.

- Well I think we can do a deal Mr White.

(suspicious music)

What's the matter?

- How did you know

my name was White?

I never signed the letter.

- Well that was careless of me.

- How did you know?

- Well you see, I've known
about you for a long time.

In fact, it was I who tried
to kidnap you last month and

I've watched every move you've made.

So

why don't you just tell
me everything you know?

Everything.

Or,

what's left of your life
will become very painful.

- No.

No.

No!

(curious music)

(brakes screeching)

- Find a phone and call the police.

- Okay.

(apprehensive music)

- You know, I don't enjoy hurting people.

So why don't you just tell me
what I want to know and you

can get out and walk away from here.

- I can't tell you.

This is the only I'll ever
have at making any money.

It's all I've got.

- But I'm not buying, I'm taking.

Now let's start again from the beginning.

Where is it?

- Please don't hurt me.

Please don't hurt me anymore.

-[Compton] Where is it?

(frantic music)

(punches)

-[John] Hey!

(frantic music)

-[Man] Yep?

- Compton.

Get over here, fast.

(curious music)

(can clanks)

(vigorous music)

- Don't worry I'm not gonna hurt you.

- Who are you?

- I'm the guy you were supposed to meet.

- The Baron?

- That's right.

I was hijacked on the way here.

- You gotta help me.

- Why don't you tell me
what this is all about.

- Well, well let's get out of here first.

- Just relax.

Police should be on the way now.

Now why did you send me that note?

- Well, I've got

some information.
(can clanks)

(suspicious upbeat music)

- Follow me.

(frantic music)

(gun fires)

(gun firing)

- Are they coming?

- Not yet.

- What are we gonna do?

- We're alright here for a while.

- Too much open ground.

If he's got a gun he'll
pick us off before we get

close to him.

Gotta be a way.

(curious music)

Just had an idea.

- Can you see them?

- No, but they're still out there.

- The police, why don't they come?

- They'll be here.

(engine revs)

- What is it?

- Get back.

(gun fires)

(gun firing)

(gun firing)

(gun fires)

(gun firing)

(gun fires)

(thumps)
(suspenseful music)

(gun fires)

- I can't move.

- We'll get an ambulance.

- No.

It's too late.

You have it.

- What's that?

- My pocket.

Help me.

It's important.

Help me.

- Is this what you wanted?

- Yes.

It's important.

Help.

Help.

(gun fires)

(sirens wailing)

-[Cordelia] Thank you.

- Well, there's nothing in here.

Nothing at all.

I've checked almost all the items.

- You said he told it was important.

- I don't see how it could be.

A couple of blurbs in there
about yesterday's auction.

They don't set off any bells.

You take a look.

Whatever it is it's big.

All this has gotta add up to something.

- Got any ideas?

- Not many.

All I know for sure is the
man I was supposed to meet

had some information.

Some other people knew it too.

Who those people are and
what the information is, that

we don't know.

- Maybe the police can
identify one of them.

-[John] Well I certainly hope so.

- Sorry to have kept you
waiting, Mr Mannering.

Here's your statement typed up.

Perhaps you'd like to glance at it.

- Yes, thank you.

You make any identifications yet?

- Oh we've made a start.

The man who was shot,
his name's Alan Gates.

His record, small time but
he's been clean for last two

or three years.

- You know where he was working?

- Well he's been unemployed for some time.

His last job was as a
warehouseman at Arkin Morley's.

- Arkin Morley?

- Yes of course you'd
know him wouldn't you?

Being the same line of business.

- Yeah I know him.

-[Cordelia] Morley about the
largest antique dealer in

Europe, isn't he?

- Yes, and about the crookedest.

He's running my racquet.

- It's probably quite slanderous.

We certainly don't have
anything on him but

this is off the record.

We do keep a weary eye on him.

- Well you'll have to do
more than that to nail Arkin.

- Nevertheless, in the eyes
of the law an honest man.

- Well I would trust
him with coffee money.

- Well naturally we'll investigate.

See if there's any
connection between Morley and

the dead man.

Does the statement cover
everything, Mr Mannering?

- Yes, that's about it.

- If you'd like to sign it I
won't detain you any longer.

I'll inform you of any progress we make.

- Yes, I'll inform you too.

Planning on making a
little progress myself.

(engine starting)

Well, it's been quite a night.

- I'm beat.

- First thing tomorrow I'm
gonna talk to Arkin Morley.

This whole thing has his trademark on it.

- Just as long as we don't
do anything more tonight.

- You want a cigarette?

- Not now.

He wasn't very good at crosswords.

- Hm?

- At least he hasn't got
the same solutions as me.

This is...

These aren't words at all.

This is inked.

Look.

Here and here.

See?

- Let me see that.

The Crusader.

Parkstone House.

Sussex.

- I certainly proved something.

- What?

- We may not know what it
is but at least we know

where it is.

- Yeah.

Maybe Arkin Morley can fill us in on that.

(sneaking music)

(thumps)

- Cut.

Cut, cut, cut.

- I am sorry, darling.

It just sort of slipped.

- Yes, it's alright
Duckie, it's quite alright.

- Do you want me to try it again?

- No I don't think so.

I think we'll shoot it again after lunch.

Off you go might thee.

-[Crew Member] Alright boys, lunch now.

- Now, where is Arkin Morley?

- Here.

- Arkin.

Do you think you could
fix this for me during

the lunch break?

- Well it is irreplaceable, you know?

However I'll work my fingers to the bone.

- That's exactly what I want.

- Mr Morley?

- Yeah.

- Main gate just rang, said
there's a Mr Mannering asking

to see you.

- Mannering.

Yes, yes I'll see him here.

Tell my assistant to join me, will you?

(curious music)

- Is Morley an actor too?

- What an actor.

No, he's giving technical advice on a

film featuring antiques.

He may be a crook but
he knows his business.

You better wait here.

I won't be long.

(curious music)

(suspicious music)

- My dear John.

How delightful.

- Hello, Arkin.

- Why, such a long time since we met.

It was when I outbid you
for the Matisse, wasn't it?

- No, I believe it was when I
outbid you for the Pissarro.

- (chuckles) Yes.

Oh yes, yes, of course.

Well now you're here perhaps
you'd care to look around?

I don't suppose you get much
chance to see this end of the

trade, do you?

- No, I always refer them to you.

- Oh, what did you want
to see me about, John?

- You ought to know.

- I am superbly accomplished
in many things but I am not

a mind reader.

Shall we sit down and get to the point?

Care for a cigarette, John?

- No, thank you.

(suspenseful music)

Now John, what's it all about?

-[John] I ran into some
weirdos last night.

Stocking masks and a whole bit.

It gave me a pretty good going over.

- Well you do seem to associate with

most unattractive people.

-[John] But not by choice.

- Are you suggesting I have
something to do with it?

- Now don't be sensitive, Arkin.

I didn't say that.

-[Arkin] Well say what you mean.

- The object of this hijacking
was to keep me from getting

a certain address.

But it didn't work.

The man I was supposed to meet was killed.

But not before he managed
to tell me everything.

So that makes

this address

worth a great deal of money.

Are you interested?

- Well it's

possible.

If the price was right.

- Well are you buying?

- I won't beat about the bush, John.

Half of whatever the sword fetches.

-[John] How much would that be?

- Oh, come on, come on.

You are a dealer, you know perfectly well.

30 years ago

the Corelli Sword fetched a
quarter of a million dollars.

Since when, it must've at
least nearly double in value.

- Thank you, Arkin.

-[Arkin] What for?

- Telling me what this is all about.

Until now I had...
(crashes)

(worried music)

(tense music)

(exciting music)

(punches)
(grunts)

(punches)
(grunts)

Alright, let's go back.

(tense music)

(screams)

(thumps)

(resolving music)

(worried music)

- Where are we going?

- Fetch the Corelli Sword.

What else?

- You mean Mannering gave you the address?

(laughs)

- He didn't exactly give it to me.

The lousy...

- What's it say?

(scoffing music)

Great.

- Well turn around, we're going back.

- What'd you find out?

- Parkstone house has been
empty for seven years.

It's up for rent.

- You got permission to view?

- We can spend as long as we like.

(engine revving)

- Well if the Corelli Sword's
been hidden there for 30 years

we'll need all the time we can get.

- Well maybe not.

Got a lead.

Crusader.

(curious music)

(sophisticated music)

(door slams)
(gasps)

- A Paris Karloff must
be throwing a party.

- I'm not surprised they're having trouble

renting this place.

-[Cordelia] What are you looking for?

- Oh, the history of the house,
family records or something.

-[Cordelia] Where was it
supposed to be stolen from?

- From here.

- Here?

- Uh-huh.

- It's pretty unlikely a
thief would have left it here.

- I imagine that's what
people thought at the time.

I understand the insurance
company's offered a

(blows)

fantastic reward for it.

- I hope it holds.

It be nice to make a profit on this trip.

- Yeah well that's only incidental.

Corelli Sword shouldn't
be stashed away somewhere.

(tense music)

-[Cordelia] Hey, John.

Take a look at this.

-[John] Lord Simon
Debourville, the 4th Earl.

- An impressive looking gent.

-[John] Yes, he's the man who
brought the sword home from

the Holy War.

- A Crusader.

It's supposed to be
something special about this?

-[John] Well if there is it
doesn't jump out and hit you

in the eye, does it?

-[Cordelia] No it doesn't.

- Well it looks like it'll
be a long hard search.

Look, why don't you go down
to the village and get us some

coffee and sandwiches?

(suspicious music)
That way we can keep at it.

-[Cordelia] Alright, anything particular?

- No, anything at all.

(sleuthing music)

(slams)

What happened to you?

Did you get lost?

- I'm afraid I'm
responsible for the delay.

You come down and join us, John.

Oh, and no

heroics.

I may not be the greatest
marksman in the world but at this

range, even I couldn't
miss this young lady.

Close the door.

- John, I'm sorry.

They saw the car in village

and stopped me.
- Nevermind.

Well, Arkin, your perseverance plus.

How did you find your way here?

- Well your note didn't exactly help.

I do wish I could boast that
it was a remarkable case of

intuity of calculation on
my part, however the facts

are childishly simple.

I followed you.

- We lost you back in...
- Shut up.

But why are we hanging
about in the hallway?

Why don't we go inside?

And you look around for
somewhere good and safe where we

can lock them up.

- I told them about the
Crusader, John, I'm sorry.

- Well you really mustn't
blame her too much.

Compton can be very persuasive.

And besides which, I've been
searching for the Corelli Sword

for many, many years.

Now I've invested a fortune
into tracking it down.

- I imagine so.

Well, Arkin.

What now?

- Oh, I really haven't
thought that much about it.

I imagine we'll have to kill you both.

- Oh, really?

- Mind you, we can think
about that after we've

found the sword.

(curious music)

- Ah.

And here's the man responsible for it all.

He could've had no conception
of the death he was to cause,

merely by returning from
the wars with a trophy

of his victories.

It's fascinating, really, isn't it?

- How's your Latin?

- My Latin?

I speak it and read it with
a fluency which can only come

from a very superior English education.

Why?

- Well there's an inscription behind that.

It might mean something.

- Really?

(nervous music)

- Don't move.

(tense music)

- That is going to cost you.

You can't imagine how much
that is going to cost you.

You find anywhere?

- Yes, there's a room downstairs.

No windows and good heavy doors.

Looks like a chapel or crypt or something.

- A crypt.

How very apt.

Alright, let's get them down.

(tense music)

- I think you'll be comfortable.

(curious music)

(apprehensive music)

- Charming.

Absolutely charming.

(lock clicks)

(tense music)

(knocking)

- Compton what were you doing?

- Oh, some paneling up
there, it sounded hollow.

- Don't have to take the whole
house to pieces, we'll be

here for months.

- Well what other way is there?

- The Crusader is the only clue we have.

And it must be something
about him somewhere.

Oh, come on, come on.

Help me go through these documents.

(curious music)

- It's a little crowded, isn't it?

- It's alright, they're
checking out in the morning.

(tense music)

Well it's our old friend the Crusader.

(tense music)

The seal is broken on this.

(apprehensive music)

(surprised music)

Beautiful, isn't it?

- Fantastic.

- You know, Arkin has
no future in the cloak

and dagger business.

- Great.

How do we get out of here?

- You don't.

Give me the sword.

Quickly.

Exquisite.

Exquisite.

Alright, Compton.

Finish him!

(menacing music)

(exciting music)
(grunts)

(crashes)

(exciting music)

(gun fires)

(gun fires)

(nervous music)

(concerned music)

(tires screeching)

(determined upbeat music)

(tires screeching)

(car zooms)

(tires screeching)

(nervous music)

(apprehensive music)

- You alright?

- Think so.

(apprehensive music)

(gun fires)

- Like you said, Arkin.

You're not the best shot in the world.

-[Arkin] Why don't you
come out in the open?

- I can afford to wait.

The way I figure it, you've
only got two shots left.

-[Arkin] Oh, one will be enough.

(gun fires)

- Well now you've got one.

(apprehensive music)

(gun fires)

Well, Arkin.

That's it.

- Let's do a deal.

- No deal.

- What do you want from me?

- It's you I want, Arkin.

I'm taking you in.

(terrified music)

(grunts)

(resolved music)

(tense music)

(upbeat theme music)
