Urgent Mission. Alert 117.

Send him the file of the Provence case.

They are walking in the fog there. We're confronted to...

...an adventure which can become very serious.

117 must travel to Toulon.

Source of indiscretions must be at the Villa Florida.

Specify to 117. Scandal shall be avoided of course. Over.

OSS 117 is not dead

Hello Mr Joseph.

Hello Consuela.

My darling, my sweet!

- Always so cute. - You came for me or for him.

We can say hello in passing, right?

- You got something for me? - Yes.

- I am in full tonic cure. - Yes? Vitamin D?

No.

Vitamine H as Hearing aid.

I prefer vitamine D as Document.

- Where did you get this? - From an ear.

I had an eye on your client since a while.

Yesterday when he entered the bar I spotted him immediately.

To break the ice I put a cube under his foot. And I started the waltz of flower pots.

And between two fags I made a small personal gathering.

Great job, huh?

I will tell you.

- This is a social insurance statement. - This is the money of the service, it is not mine.

Won't go very far with that.

And if it was a document about striptease?

Striptease in a hearing aid.

- To listen to the sound of snap buttons? - For the rest we will see later.

So to the next show my little Joseph.

Go, go, go...

See you soon Mr Joseph.

See you soon Mata-Hari.

- Hotel Majestic, I'm listening. - Give me Mr Bucherol.

- Vincent Bucherol. -Hang on for a moment.

Mr Bucherol here.

I'm listening to you Joseph.

Your life hangs by a thread Madame.

But it is the XYZ thread, the best in the world, which offers you this program.

It's you Mado?

Yes.

Very funny.

- Can you do japanese accent too? - Miss Consuela?

- In flesh and blood. - I come on behalf of a friend.

- Name? - Beethoven.

- Assuredly you're working in the music business! -My friend is not musician.

He's deaf.

- Of course, like.. - That's it.

I'm coming to claim the ear of my friend.

The ear?

I don't understand.

His hearing aid.

You mean that thing here?

That's it.

I don't have it.

- You pick it up yesterday evening at the Stop-Bar. -I repeat. I don't have it.

There's a great reward.

I'm sorry.

I don't have it.

- Too bad. - Too bad.

My deaf friend is not blind. It's not the same.

You smoke?

Never after my bath.

Yeah...

Yesterday I picked up an hearing aid. And then?

And then indeed.

- I didn't keep it. I gave it to someone. -Who?

- Gisele. - I went to the bar. I only saw the boss.

Gisele is the barmaid.

- There was no barmaid. - You see then!

Too bad I don't have the telephone or I would call her. But I will go there tonight.

- No. - OK, I'm going now.

You stay here.

You're idiot. She will never recall. It was in the middle of a brawl.

- I could refresh her memory. - I will refresh her myself.

That's too much!

- I could scream louder, you know. - It would do you no good.

So much business for a false marble gizmo.

The other day I lost a golden bracelet. Real gold!

You will tell me your life story later.

Because I'll be back. I promise.

To the Stop-Bar.

Lily! Carmen!

Mado!

Katia!

Katia!

Rosella is dead. What to do?

Jam the lock. I'm closed in.

OK.

Pull the door.

Why?

To not upset the real key.

Never useless zeal.

You don't look good.

I've had a visit.

Mr Joseph called you?

Yes.

Tell me your exploit in details.

There's no exploit. I did some zeal and I picked up the hearing aid from the floor.

- By chance? - Oh no, I saw immediately it was a fake.

Really?

You never saw the deaf guy before?

Only in picture.

- And your visitor? - Never.

A friend of the deaf guy, it seems.

And you told him that you had brought the hearing aid to the bar?

Yes.

What were you aiming at?

I don't know. I guess I was waiting for a miracle.

Thank you.

- You're leaving? But he'll be back. - I hope so.

But he went to see Gisele for nothing.

He will ask questions. You will make fake answers. That's where your exploit begins.

And you'll have to speak loud.

- But you're staying at least? - Of course.

Thank you.

You'll make him pass over there. I'm counting on you.

Yes.

Your spirits are high?

You found her?

One can only count on himself... huh?

Gisele has not arrived yet?

I'm not surprised.

This girl is always late.

It's the last time I'm giving her something to keep.

Why are you lying?

To make you talk.

After all I'm not the girl from the dressing room, right?

And think about it. What would I do with your gizmo?

A gherkin jar? I don't like vinegar.

For the last time. How much do you want?

You're not my banker neither.

You ran away with it. Give it to me.

Will you give it to me? Yes or no?

Hey!

Hey stupid!

Over.

The same day.

The original of document 15 contained in the hearing aid was in Anthony Lead's safe.

- Unbelievable. - But we're forced to believe it.

So leakages come from Mr Anthony Lead, a man above suspicion.

He probably lost the keys of his safe.

Or he opens it himself. We have to identify our opponent.

Who stole the documents? For who the documents are stolen?

How the documents are stolen? All the questions are here.

- Now we just have to answer them. - And fast.

To not further complicate the international crisis.

So?

No, definitively no. Never seen this guy.

I need all the intel on him.

With great pleasure. The bastard.

Maybe he did us a great service.

Consuela was already dead of fright. She could have given you to this guy.

I gonna need you.

Alright.

You're going to contact the old man. Tell him I want to get in touch with my colleague.

Miss Muriel is still living at the Villa Armada.

- She plays the ing�nue on holiday. - Holidays are over.

I want her ready now.

Meanwhile I keep this rush.

I will make two others. One for the old man's file and one for mine.

How is my colleague? Lovely?

She's not bad... kinda feminine.

That's enough to recognize her.

By the way...

Consuela's fortune. The guy had taken it to...

...make it look like a robbery. I carried on in his footsteps.

Not for the same reason of course.

You will buy her a funeral wreath.

- Friends of the Stop-Bar... - Yep.

Yes?

OSS 117.

You made me scared. I prefer you this way.

Spare me your irony. Once and for all: duty service only.

Great start.. Good night then, young man.

Good night 117.

May I?

Please!

- Thank you. - It's nothing. Dirty sneaker.

Wonderful!

What would be wonderful is to see you leaving.

But that will happen too, Muriel.

So you're the savior. The old man don't trust me anymore. I'm given a chaperon.

Because in your opinion, with such a cover, it's useless?

I didn't ring the alarm bell.

The old man probably thought you would be less lonely with me.

You're the number one agent, I know. Have fun then

but all alone because I'm packing at once.

In your place I would wait a while before going to see the old man.

The last time he spoke of you in my presence he ate half of his cigar.

He asked me to be discreet. I have nothing to reproach myself.

Without reproach but not without pride.

Since two weeks you're making no headway when you're two steps from...

...Villa Florida, three steps from Mr Lead and four steps from his safe.

- Merely guesses. - Checked upon.

This afternoon Joseph has discovered a microfilm contain documents.

I see you begin to be interested by the case.

Why Joseph did not call me?

I make no headway since I arrived at the Majestic three days ago.

You see, we're on the same level.

- Important documents? - Lovely things.

- Top secret. - By chance.

You know that guy?

- Yep. - No kidding.

I saw him in the guests at a cocktail in the Lead's Villa.

- You were invited? - I spied above the wall.

You see. At least I know something.

- You're wonderful. Tomorrow we're going to Florida. -By the main door?

- I don't know yet but I guess I will have an idea then. - You seem very resourceful.

Ideas. I have as much ideas as you have hats.

- Where is the room? - Your room is over there.

Scream "Vincent my hat".

"Vincent my hat"

Vincent my hat!

I'm sorry but he slipped from my hands.

Do you permit me?

Strange projectile, isn't it?

The last flying saucer model. Progress can't be stopped.

My father.

And your sister?

No, my step-mother.

You didn't tell me you were waiting a guest Anita?

Rest assured. Mr came not for me but for his hat.

Mrs.

To be true it's not mine, it's my cousin's hat. He slipped from my hands.

It's a very original model.

Manual work. Entirely home-made.

But I don't want to disturb you any longer.

Not at all. How did you get in?

- Over the wall. - Ah!

- You have a really nice Villa. - It's quite roomy, yes.

Next time come in through the front gate. It will be less difficult.

- Really? - So, Vincent?

You're disturbing our neighbors.

My cousin Muriel. The artist.

I'm sorry.

- How are you? - And you?

I'm pretty embarassed, thank you.

Take me in your arms. Don't let me on the ground. I'm ridiculous.

Listen, come to the Villa. If need be I will call my doctor.

Really Vincent, I think we're disturbing them.

Go and tell Yacoub to have cocktails ready.

Alright Mrs.

They're our neighbors.

- The Miss fell from the sky! - I've seen that Marion.

- Not too serious I hope. - I hope too.

- Anthony Lead. -Vincent Bucherol. My cousin Muriel Rousset.

- Hello Sir. - Pleased to meet you.

Over there.

Thank you. Orange juice.

- No thank you. - You're not thirsty?

- Not for an orange juice. - Miss would prefer a cocktail!

- But they're not for kids. - The proof.

- You heard him?

- Can I borrow you Lucile for a game? - You can. -A croquet game?

- You think I'm too old for that? - On the contrary. I'm challenging you and...

- Lucile. - My secretary.

- Both of you against me. OK? - OK.

What are you going to do?

We're going to do what is forbidden to you, my dear, some sport.

We hate each other since my first hat!

Your cousin is a real sportsman.

Him? He's mad!

- But it doesn't prevent him being a Colonel. - So he's a colonel?

Yes, to speak the truth, I must admit I admire him a lot.

Colonel Bucherol behaved splendidly during the War.

He made 16, no...

17 parachute jumps for top-secret missions.

For instance, it's at the end of a mission that he decided to stop drinking alcohol.

It may look like nothing but it was a very important decision for him.

It seems so. If I understand clearly he was part of the secret services.

- Or rather one in particular... - I guess but he never speaks about that...

Probably not in his habits.

In any case he's very sympathetic. Don't you think Tony?

Indeed.

Someone is asking for Mrs on the phone.

Mr Obarian.

- Oh, it's Boris! I'm sorry. - Please do.

My hat!

Here it is!

I hope you won't need it next time to come to see us.

Thank you, loot!

Passion of the game but do not repeat it to anyone.

So, who's the winner?

Loot!

Game is not finished yet.

Lucile Lorain, I'm Mr Lead's secretary.

Muriel Rousset, pleased to meet you.

It may sounds ridiculous to you but I never played croquet before.

- Is it like playing golf? - Not really.

Cigarette?

No thank you.

I'm sorry. My pockets are full of junk.

But you never find what you're looking for.

Vincent, I'm passing through a hoop.

Our friend Boris is inviting us to a party, you're also invited of course.

I spoke about you and he insisted on your presence.

Excellent news.

Very nice ring. Cartier's?

You know a lot of things, Colonel.

Colonel?

Muriel is too talkative. I'm finished with the army.

You came to spy on my husband.

Maybe.

I'm still invited at your friends?

My husband is not afraid of suspicions. He has all the trust of his government.

He's an honest man.

Yes, I know, it's a stereotype but it's the truth.

Is it a reproach?

My answer to gossip.

It's only my personal wealth allowing us this way of life.

At the table. Near the small brunette.

Yes?

Consuela's visitor.

You don't say thank you to your cousin?

Hello Boris.

I was not completely happy yet until I saw you.

Good evening.

Boris Obarian, our host.

Vincent Bucherol. Boris Obarian. Muriel Rousset.

Make yourself at home.

- Nice gift. - (Inaudible)

I don't understand

but I'm sure it must be very funny.

Do as you wish Lucile.

Thank you Mrs.

- Boris, I'm dying of thirst. - Let's go to the spring.

You will excuse me. I'm crazy about lovely women.

- He's a remarkable business man. - Very active.

What kind of business?

He's managing a small international transport company. The Boating Company.

I see. Small boats in bigger ones.

Good evening Anthony.

Nahedad, my compliments.

- Vincent Bucherol. - Nahedad Risani.

- Glad to meet you. - Mr Obarian's collaborator.

I can hardly imagine you adding numbers.

Imagine nothing. I've been offered a calculator.

Anthony, I haven't had the chance to dance yet.

You know I'm not dancing anymore and I deeply regret it.

- The heart. -The heart and the doctors.

I'm sorry.

Sorry, I'm not dancing yet.

Wait me here.

Where is he?

- Who? -Mr...

- "Scarface". -Mr Rolando?

That's it, Mr Rolando.

I don't know. In a party you change your dancing partners. We're just having fun.

Exciting.

- I'm crazy about lovely women. - You must be one of Boris friends!

How did you guess?

Orange juice.

Three dances with Boris and we're already at Chapter seduction.

- Chapter 3: melancholy. - Play his game.

And you?

Chapter 7: Indifference. Mrs keeps me waiting, so I wait.

It's for us.

- My mask. - Too late.

- Sorry, I'm so clumsy, I'm so inexcusable.

Excuse me. No harm done, I hope.

Vincent,

you're definitively as clumsy as ever.

Ralph missed them. We won't have their pictures.

It doesn't matter.

We must act as if it was him.

And the "little cousin"?

She can be useful.

I'm taking care of her.

Ralph.

Ralph?

I'm listening.

We stick to our plan for the Colonel.

Understood.

No foolishness this time.

It was a wonderful evening.

- Where were you? - In the park.

Alone.

Only with myself. I was dreaming.

Everybody looked after you. Our friends were forced to leave.

- Nothing serious. - No Anita was tired, she almost fainted.

That girl dances too much.

- Where is my cousin? - I don't know.

- You didn't meet her in the park? - No.

- Do you want to make a phone call? - Good idea.

- It's odd. I have the feeling we already met Colonel.

- In another life. - Maybe.

This young girl is really your cousin?

Why?

You have the behavior of a jealous man.

In my country there is a story about a man playing his women to dices.

No-one?

No-one.

In my country a man's fortune is not enough to earn a single woman.

To risk everything on a single bet is dangerous.

Are you afraid of danger?

- On certain nights. - And tonight?

In my country we say, tonight or never.

Tonight.

Another night.

Never then.

Where can I find Mr Obarian?

He asked me to excuse him for leaving. He was call on an emergency.

A sick boat probably.

No. A woman at sea.

You will give him my admiring regards.

You're worried about Muriel?

Not at all. I will find her at home.

It's something else saddening me.

What?

Hard to tell.

Too bad.

Too bad.

Someone there?

- You got the telephone? - Yes but I'm not the post office.

- There was a serious traffic accident on the road below. -I'm coming then.

It's no use. Call Mr Joseph at the 22854.

-22854. Mr Joseph.

Thank you. I'm going back there.

My poor friend.

- Will he stay here a long time? - His occipital is fractured on 6 cm.

Thorax and left shoulder traumas. (Inaudible) nodal of the right kneecap.

Double dislocation of the right menisque.

Doctor said nothing but he's here for 15 days at least.

He says he loves you.

He's still in shock.

I've brought him crystallized fruits. I know he's fond of them.

- Yes and they're not perishable. - I put them here.

I will come tonight to have some news.

Come in.

Well done.

But I must admit I've been very busy too on my side.

Between the phone call from the neighbour and your installation here

that's what I call some organization.

(Inaudible)

I must warn you.

The nurse taking care of you is the friend of my friend the Chief Doctor.

Yes, for her, it's...

it's a love story.

What a stratagem, right?

Maybe you're waiting my congratulations?

- Oh shit... - Yes, a tape recorder. Nahedad is good at organization too.

Let's erase this and back from the start.

Do another entry.

Oh, my poor Sir, how lucky you are, I thought you were dead.

I live near the turn you missed.

You remember, don't you? No, don't speak, I don't want to exhaust you.

About Muriel?

No news.

Did you ask them to send another document?

Yes, I even received an answer.

Mr Lead will be officially warned

that a confidential file will be sent to him. Ultra-secret documents.

Service will give me the precise hour of the file's arrival.

Nothing else from the old man?

No. He gives us free card.

They tried to kill me. I'm staying here waiting for the next orders.

Let them believe in Santa Claus. They try so hard. Let's not disappoint them.

You keep the watch on Villa Florida and Boris' Villa. You got enough men?

I will manage. Six persons to watch constantly will require many eyes.

Especially when the documents will be in the house.

Well,

we'll start the watch at eight o'clock tonight.

Perfect.

Give me a direct phone line. I don't want to see you here anymore.

What about Muriel?

Muriel?

What are we doing?

Nothing. We wait.

Muriel.

Back on earth again.

We could go very far, Bagdad, Ceylan, the islands...

...the end of the world, make your choice.

For now I would just like a warm place.

- This inn belongs to you? - Yeah.

Could you serve us some coffee?

Yeah.

- Do you have the telephone? - Yes.

- Where? - In the main hall.

- Two coffees. - With milk.

With milk.

- I would like to forget everything. - You've been given a memory.

Alas.

I'm coming back.

- How long? - At least 15 days.

Other news. Our good friend will receive tomorrow a very important letter.

Ralph is watching the clinic. I put an "ear" myself at the head of the bed.

- You told it to Muriel? -For now it's best if she ignores the accident.

- I will hold her. - You're sure you will?

We did much more difficult things. She's a white dove.

You wanted to leave?

Boris.

We behaved like children.

And children have no pity.

- Bad news? - Why asking? You don't love me.

- Who loves me by the way? - Can I help you?

You can always help

by your presence, Muriel.

Listen. I'm a hunted man.

If only I could forget for a few hours.

I stay.

Thank you.

I have to call the Villa. Vincent is probably worrying to death.

- To death? - He always emphasize things.

I'm coming back.

It's Muriel. I'm alright but I can't speak.

Vincent has faked an accident. He's in a private clinic.

The address has been put in your mail.

Nahedad gave him a recorder as a gift.

So childish!

There's a delivery tomorrow at Anthony Lead's home.

Muriel?

I'd like to know where he is.

Too bad.

You're so kind.

Because I love you...

Hello Colonel!

I'm sorry. Mr Bucherol.

I had them picked up for you.

Who told you?

Nahedad.

- She's upset. - I know.

What happened to you?

You fell asleep at the wheel?

I fell asleep a bit too early.

- In fact I'm the guilty one. - What do you mean?

If I had not insisted to invite you at Boris party.

If I had asked my husband to wait for you.

If I was a better driver.

Take a biscuit.

You must be a gourmet. All men are.

Mr Lead is doing fine?

He's sorry. He could not come.

He's very busy.

I wanted to tell you...

Last night in the car...

I told dumb things...

I was nervous.. - It's the weather.

- What? - The weather. Stormy.

- How is Anita? - Very well.

- And how is your cousin? - Fine I hope

since she wasn't in the car.

- She leads a free life. - Muriel?

- She know by heart the declaration of the... - Woman's rights.

- Of course. - It can be useful.

I have to leave.

Really, you're not mad at me?

Boris is a charming man.

Indeed.

As soon as you have recovered I will throw a party for you.

And I will go back walking.

It will be safer.

I'm coming on Mr Lead's behalf.

He's doing things with style.

Good-bye.

- Mr Lead asked me to... - Yes, I know, I know.

Some water please. My flowers are thirsty.

You had some fun last night?

Not so much.

You seem to be hard to please.

Nothing is easy to a secretary.

Biscuit?

No thanks.

- Sit down. - I can't stay very long.

- Mr Lead asked me to... - Boris really has a splendid Villa.

The park especially.

I'm not going very often to Mr Obarian's villa

but it's true, the park is splendid.

Splendid and...

big.

Easy to get lost.

I don't know.

Mr Lead would have prefer coming himself but he's very busy today.

- Yes, his wife told me so. - He told it to me.

- You will pass him my thanks. - Would you like some books?

- Mr Lead asked me to... - Books? Of course.

- What kind? - Detective or spy novels. - Very well.

Good-bye Sir.

You never go out at night?

Never.

Too bad.

It seems no-one is waiting for us.

Or not anymore.

Don't take all my strength.

I'd like to think over everything you told me.

My little darling so reasonable.

And so crazy.

Bad news?

Vincent...

Vincent had a car accident.

- He's not dead? - Not yet.

He's in a clinic on Spain Avenue.

Come.

I'll drive you there.

- It's lucky you waited before leaving. - A premonition.

- Mr Bucherol. Room 16. A lady just came in. Miss Risani.

An old wound waking up from time to time. It's silly.

It will pass in a moment.

I'm following you.

My God.

The Bells...

Yes.

comfort me..

Yes.

Come on Muriel. He's too tired.

We're staying with you.

You can't go home alone.

Let's stay together. It will be less sad for you.

Yes.

In a word, you didn't miss me at all.

This night at the Casino seems to have been a success for the three of you.

So successful that you're sleeping now.

I'm waiting for your story.

It's not you who had two sleepless nights in a row.

Tell me more about Boris the seducer.

And your impression on the irresistible Nahedad?

I resisted!

And you think you're the only one?

- Maybe he tries to win you on his side. - And he knows the tune!

Innocent, hunted, abandoned, nobody loves him...

He wants you to save him.

He wants to take me to the end of the world.

And Nahedad?

She would prefer to see you in the other...

world.

Take this. A stimulating tonic!

Let's resume, Joseph

has seen Lucile, who pretends she never goes out at night,

leaving Villa Florida soon after the light signals.

You saw Lucile at the Casino.

What?

You saw Lucile at the Casino just when you were there with Boris.

But she didn't get near Boris.

So he was there to catch your attention.

Why not?

You're not that bad. The old man was right.

You're not that bad neither.

Huh?

- What? - Nothing.

Alright.

You're staying at Villa Armada of your own free will.

And without insurance policy.

I stay at Villa Armada,

you stay in bed and Joseph watches.

Since they ignore his existence.

True.

By the way, Joseph has parked a car behind the clinic

with a paper sticked on the left wing. You will verify.

OK.

It's alright?

Mr Bucherol, if you're reasonable I think...

...I can give your back to your cousin in ten days.

Thank you Dr.

Imagine Doctor that my cousin was the first man for who I fell in love.

- Is that true! -Absolutely!

The word of a woman is the most wonderful poison.

Indian proverb.

Listen to the man and never believe him.

Universal proverb.

My poor man,

you're lucky, I thought you were dead.

I live near the turn you missed.

You remember?

No, don't say nothing. I don't want to exhaust you.

Hello?

Hello Vincent?

The letter arrived at 3 PM.

No move at Villa Florida until 4.15 PM.

Anthony Lead just went out in his car toward the port.

Yes, Boris and Nahedad are still in their office.

No.

No, they don't have the gear there to make reproductions.

If Lead gives them the document

one of them will have to go out.

Call me as soon as Lead gets to their office.

- We absolutely must... - Mr Bucherol. Room 13.

Hello my dear.

I took some time to make you a visit.

Thank you.

I bring you myself the books

you asked to my secretary.

Spy novels, right?

They're entertaining... to read.

How do you feel?

Much better.

Sit down.

Thank you.

My lucky charm.

- Superstitious? -Not you.

Like everybody.

I also had a car accident a few years ago.

My first wife, Anita's mother, was still alive and we had...

Allow me.

Thank you.

Yes?

No.

They think I'm the maternity ward.

You were saying?

Nothing interesting. A car accident remembrance. Not really the moment.

Let it ring.

- Does Anita look like her mother? - Very much.

Also morally. The same enthusiasms, the same will too.

You probably spoil her too much.

She's my daughter.

Do you know what Marion told me?

- That I was there to watch you? - Yes.

That's what you believe?

A little. Maybe that's why I was a little nervous with you.

Of course you have no obligation to tell me the truth.

But I can assure you that the leaks, if there's any leaks, don't come from me.

I completely trust my secretary that you know very well now.

No-one except her has access to my files.

That's all.

I also came here to make this little speech.

Very solemn speech to a wounded man.

You probably have already been wounded more seriously, Colonel.

True.

Unfortunately these days

my head is not as strong as it used to be.

Hello Muriel?

Everything alright?

I run to the clinic and I call you when I'm back.

...Mr Joseph

is absent for a few moments.

Please dictate your message.

Mr Joseph

is absent for a few moments.

Please dictate your message.

What is he doing?

Hello?

It's you.

Nothing.

The Ladies play croquet. Lead just came back.

Joseph?

I didn't see him.

He called me to say he was going to the clinic.

More than an hour ago.

He probably met a gin friz.

I will call later.

Majestic Hotel?

Give me Arthur the bellhop.

It's Arthur. I'm listening.

Hello Mr Bucherol. How can I help you?

The rose tree in my garden is dead. What shall I do?

Have faith in me.

Go see Joseph now and come immediately to see me at Clinic Escarat.

Room 13. And hurry up!

I've got my scooter so it's possible...

Hello?

- Yes? - Arthur.

Joseph?

- Shot down. - In front of his shop.

I tried to get some details but it was impossible with police just in front...

It's too late now.

You know Joseph's network?

A little. He trusted me.

- Can you get in touch with his men? - As soon as tomorrow.

Tomorrow? No thanks.

Tonight his guys will hide and I've got my service at the hotel.

- Go get me a doctor skullcap. - Where?

That's your problem.

Okay.

Muriel?

You're alright?

That's good.

No. Bad news.

From now on there's only the two of us.

Police is at his home?

It gets worse. Do I have to warn the old man?

We've got no time to lose. I'm going to see Lead. You...

I'm staying here.

Certainly the dearest wish of our "friends".

It suits me. I've got a hat to finish.

I'm dying to see it.

I contact you as soon as I can.

Above all, no foolishness. Don't go out under any circumstances.

Thank you.

You've already been in love?

Several times.

The best stuff in life, huh?

I prefer torture.

I used to say that too. Give me your glasses.

Corridor.

Sorry.

Call the police. You've been attacked. An unknown helped you. Hurry up!

If we let them run they will catch me. Think about Joseph.

Come on, scram!

Hands up!

To show you I'm a sharp shooter.

Hands up.

Drop the gun.

You should have shot me first.

I don't like the smell of fried pig.

Hello Nahedad?

It's alright. The cutie is at home. You can have your way.

It's ok. I�m waiting for further instructions.

Come here darling.

You're too smart for your own good.

Already healed?

Congratulations.

Thank you.

I come as a friend.

On special mission too.

Yes.

Since your last visit some events had me thinking.

I need you.

Me?

- You received a document today. - Yes.

It's in there.

Who knows the combination lock?

Me and my secretary.

- So your secretary is guilty. - Impossible.

She works for Boris Ovarian and Nahedad Risani.

I hope you have some proofs.

We've intercepted the microfilm of the 15A document.

You were the only one to possess it in this town.

The microfilm was hidden in an hearing aid.

Your friend Boris tried to kill me.

Two of my agents are already dead because of this.

Anthony, you must help me.

- Your secretary is... - No.

It's not my secretary.

It's me.

Your mission is over Colonel.

Why did you betray us?

Money.

A woman?

Yes.

Nahedad.

How do you contact her?

The simplest way. The telephone.

By way of your servant too.

Yacoub?

He's at my order since 5 years. He's beyond suspicion.

My confession is not enough for you?

It's me asking the questions.

If you can believe me just once

I can certify you that the document I received today

was never out of this safe.

Consider yourself my prisoner. In this room.

Is this the only telephone in the house?

Yes.

We can arrange this without your family knowing.

Thank you.

The Colonel just went out from Lead's Villa. We must warn Boris at once.

Ralph is watching the clinic.

Let's call anyway.

No line.

Cut off? By whom?

Impossible. I tied her up before calling you.

Run to a cabin.

And tell Boris I still have our exchange money in my grip.

Muriel?

Muriel?

Come in.

Come in.

Give me your gun.

At once or I shoot your "Muriel".

Step through the window.

Hands up!

How do you feel, Colonel?

- Thank you. - Thank you.

Thank you.

Yacoub went out to make a phone call.

Fot Yacoub it's over.

- We're close to the end? - We're burning!

Leads accuses himself to cover someone else.

Someone from his house.

But who?

Lucile was with this guy at the Casino.

Please?

He left you with a pair of scissors?

- I had lost them in the armchair. - Very handy.

I'm going back to Lead to tell him two words about Yacoub.

We're going to put this one in the cellar waiting for something better.

- Nothing broken? - I'm in great shape.

I think the answer

is near Florida.

We have to watch Boris. I'll do it.

- Don't take useless risks. - You wouldn't have regrets?

- I prefer you alive. - Very funny.

It's sincere. I really need you.

Well, I mean we need you.

No emotion during the job.

Thank you.

Take the car in front of the gate. They don't know it.

At your order my Colonel.

He said I was smart.

You're not of the same opinion?

Oh, yes!

- I thought you were never going out at night. - I have no account to give you.

Really?

I want all the truth about your lies.

I'm listening.

Your lamp makes me uncomfortable.

It's the light making you uncomfortable.

Mr Lead has...

In this park that you pretend you don't know you were speaking of Mr Lead with Mr Orlando.

I didn't know Orlando was his name.

And you acknowledged the document he showed to you.

Give me the code of your light signals.

Signals?

What signals? I don't understand.

Lucile Lorrain, you're trying to escape through a no way out.

I never sent signals. I don't know what you're talking about.

- I'm a secretary but... - You already told that.

But I don't want to stay a secretary all my life.

I met a man three weeks ago.

I love him

and he wants to marry me.

Every night we meet.

- Where? - He comes and takes me in his car.

But the other night it wasn't the same car waiting for you.

Yes.

It was me waiting for you.

Keep talking.

At the party a man...

Orlando...

wanted to talk to me about some urgent business. I followed him, I admit.

He thought I had met someone at night when I left the villa.

- Who? - He never told me.

And I swear I never saw anyone.

Why did you lie to me at the clinic?

He had threatened to hurt my fianc� if I talked.

- He knew him? - He showed me his picture. I was scared.

This picture?

Yes.

Since when Anthony Lead is Nahedad Risani's lover?

You're completely crazy!

If someone is unfaithful in this house it's not him.

- Where is Mrs Lead tonight? - Maybe at the Casino.

Mrs Lead doesn't give me her secrets.

I can imagine.

- It's her who met Boris Obarian first? - Yes. On the beach.

- Miraculous draught of fishes. - A last question.

Who knows the lock combination Mr Lead excepted?

Me.

And Mrs Lead in case of an accident.

I see.

Thank you.

It's strictly forbidden for you to get out until further notice. Sorry.

- Where is Mr Lead? - In his office.

I hope you're not suspecting him?

I've been shaking a basket for three days.

There's a crab in this basket. He will have to go out sooner or later.

Take this one instead.

I won't say anything.

I won't say anything!

Really?

No!

Colonel, I maintain my confession. I'm the only culprit. Signed Anthony Lead.

So?

Still nothing to say?

Your father died because of you!

I catch you red-handed but it's still not enough for you!

We will talk then about your other exploits.

- A week ago you stole a document and gave it to Boris Obarian. -I had to save him!

- From what? - He's hunted. Everybody is against him!

Nobody loves him and he wants to take you to the end of the world?

- Yes. - Yes, it's his stock speech.

Help me, save me, I love you, he said the same to Muriel and other girls.

But for you it was wonderful, he talked to you as if you were a woman.

I wanted to prove that I'm not a little girl anymore.

And you have succeeded!

When did your father caught you?

This afternoon.

When he came back from the clinic I was in front of the safe.

For a moment I thought he did not understand.

Because he loved you.

He only understood tonight.

How did you know the lock combination?

We played at remembering by heart the telephone number.

I asked him if he ever forgot his safe combination.

He answered...

"Can't happen,

1940,

the year of your birth."

Daddy.

Too late.

But you can save his honor. What is the light signals code?

Four flash lights if I have nothing.

Ten if I have the papers.

And why the signals on their side?

It means Boris is waiting for me.

Tell me what I have to do.

Send the signal as if you had the papers.

- Hurry up! - Yes, yes.

Let the engine started.

- As soon as I come back... - Yes, yes.

- It won't be long. - I trust you.

Boris.

Anita.

You have the papers?

I can't.

It's the last thing I ask from you.

All is ready for us to leave. I let everything behind me, you understand?

I absolutely need these papers to be safe and live as a free man.

With you.

I can't.

My father...

he's dead.

Dead! How? Killed? Suicide?

Did you talk? Did he catch you?

Answer!

He's alone in his office. There's nobody else at home.

I'm afraid, Boris.

- And if I'm coming with you. 1025a

Come then.

I'm going to faint. Give me something to drink. Quick!

Some noise in the living room!

I was probably wrong.

The keys are in his left pocket.

The number?

19-40.

Don't forget anything.

You heard some noise.

You came in through the window.

You saw your father.

You noticed that the papers were not in the safe anymore.

Being surprised Obarian tried to reach the door.

You were quick enough to take the gun out of the drawer and to shoot.

Understood?

It's Lucile. She's closed in her room. Key is on the door.

Hubert! Hubert!

Nahedad. We had a few words.

- And you got the last one! - Yes.

I knocked her out.

Hats off.

"Come on, 117, no nonsense!"

"No nonsense, Muriel!"

- "You're only in it for the adventure." - "You're only in it for the adventure."
