[Music]

okay

[Music]

this plane carries 1 000 solid gold bars

of swiss standard weight

worth about 200 million american dollars

and belonging to the free world

the plane had been hijacked and flown to

samtong airport in laos

but a special operations squad set up

jointly by thailand in the united states

succeeded in recovering the plane and

its precious cargo

in a daring commando assault there were

now only four survivors of this special

operations squad

and they now fly the plane and its gold

cargo back to thailand

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

[Music]

what's that noise someone dropped in

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

bacon

so

you come right away sure

why not

your boy should be more careful

i suppose you're here to tell me the

party's over

the party's over in padia but i've got a

better one for you in laos

i'll bet you have

i'll go to my suite and get my things no

time i've got clothes for you where

we're going

my boys will bring your things to

bangkok

after they've dried off

[Music]

um

[Music]

we might get to bangkok with all of five

minutes to spare

frankly we're in a hell of a mess

the plane bringing back the hijacked

gold was shot down over laos

any survivors we haven't heard either

way

but what it boils down to is this we're

joining the thai central intelligence

agency in a hurry up mission to get a

special team into the crash site

we want that gold back how about

equipment and personnel

the army's going to provide us with the

most sophisticated weaponry available in

this area

all under the table of course

as for personnel colonel and sees

putting together the best team possible

in the short time available

and you'll be happy to know that in

addition to you

the united states cia will be

represented by

cordelia dubois

i haven't seen her since the opium

highway unfortunately

it's been a long time cordelia dubois

[Music]

we got company

[Music]

and i suppose this is what the

well-dressed agent is wearing this

season

well uh

some things never change

how are you cordelia fine mike

[Music]

it's good to see you again

um jack

hello how are you doing

any word about survivors

how are you you look much better

yes thank you

dr pinkai yep

the villagers here call me dr pin

where are you from

i'm a thai flying for the red cross

my plane developed trouble and i had to

bail out

hmm are there any others

oh no i'm alone

i want to get back to thailand

i'll need a map

a map

this is where c123 was

shot down with its gold cargo worth four

thousand million baht

or about two hundred million in american

dollars

we established the point of the crash by

means of our last radio contact

with the pilot and we later on confirmed

it by satellite

our mission is to get the gold back

at any cost in manpower or in equipment

the reason for urgency is obvious the

enemy

has also pinpointed the crash site and

may already be moving in that direction

our task is very difficult and very

dangerous

because we must infiltrate their lines

while they have the advantage of

operating within their own zone

with easy availability of supplies

and personnel we are hoping however

that with our small highly specialized

unit we can accomplish

our mission through surprise and speed

you've been picked for this job and we

know you can do it

general smith do you have any comment at

this time

no general i do not

colonel nc will now conduct the briefing

tomorrow the people of the mekong river

hold a traditional ceremony when they

fish for the bulk fish

it is a right that goes back to ancient

times

there are two bulk fish wongs one is in

thailand

the other deep in enemy territory

what do you mean what do you suppose

they are

they're wong's a buck fish of course

one is a thai word means a place where

the book fish lives

and if i was you i'd just calm down

tonight a plane will drop equipment by

parachute into the mekong river

at this point

we'll start our mission disguised as

buick fisherman

moving along the river in a fishing boat

then when we see a good opportunity

we'll slip away from the other

fishing boats and head for the

designated recovery point

will be met by one of our agents

at this point

remember there will be six of us on this

mission

mark banner and i will be in command of

this unit

those of you who are assigned to this

important mission

are miss

cordelia dubois next

christ horn wallop

and pawn

remember if the enemy gets to the gold

first

they can buy enough weapons to blow us

right out of southeast asia

you'll rendezvous on the mekong river at

5am tomorrow

that is all thank you and good luck

see you later i'll see you again too

general

good briefing general sir thank you

bye general good luck

[Music]

[Music]

chief

he must be a spy hoping to steal our

opium

he can't be trusted why keep him alive

yes why keep him alive

but to kill him now is forbidden it

would be taboo

don't forget you're going to marry my

daughter

i know that you can't kill anyone until

the conditions are met

the law of the tribe says that you will

provide

a solid gold dress for my daughter's

dowry

and give an offering to the spirit of

the great snake

if you kill him now the naga will punish

you

and my daughter can never be yours but

my chief

i've been looking for gold for three

years now and the gold i have

would not even make half a dress not

even a short sleeve

where can i find gold for a whole dress

where can i find gold i know where

i know i know where you can find all the

gold you want

god damn it you just want to save your

ass

aung wait

what was that you said

you want gold solid gold

well i know where there's enough gold to

make a thousand dresses

he's lying shut up

be sure you're not lying because if you

are

you will die in the most

horrible way imaginable

i'm not lying i'll take you to the gold

all right

but you'll have to cut me loose

gold you'll be treated

collect all that gold and mold it into

bars

so what do we do just wait we have no

choice

don't have the men and equipment to get

that damn gold out of here

i suggest we attack them later

[Music]

this is where the gold is here's the

cave where we are

when they finish packing the gold we'll

split up

and attack ten of them to every one of
