That's good, yeah. Sounded nice?

What are you doing?

Well, this is the Malvern collection that was hijacked in Denmark. Correct.

It certainly had plenty of publicity.

Now, just to recap on the bare facts. Jewels were stolen whilst in transit.

And there is some evidence that one member of the

gang double-crossed his partners and just...

Drove off with the jewels, and that's about all we know.

Does this company carry the insurance?

As of this moment, we stand to pay out slightly

in excess of one million pounds sterling.

This arrived in the mail this morning.

Danish postmark.

We have the Malvern jewelry.

I will hand it over intact on payment of 10% of the insured value.

No police, no questions asked.

There will be a message in the personal column

of the Copenhagen Daily News on Monday.

If you agree, follow its instructions.

And this...

It's the same one. It's genuine.

So you're going to make the payoff and you want our help?

I've already arranged for the money to be available in Denmark.

Did you get it?

Oh, yes, look.

Look, it's here.

What is wrong?

Nothing.

Katie, it won't be long.

The insurance company will pay. I know they will.

Would you like something to eat?

No, I'm not hungry.

Katie, you're my daughter.

I'm doing all this for you to make up for... Don't ever say that.

Don't ever say that you're doing this for me.

Katie.

When you phoned me yesterday, when I came in and

saw you lying there, I was shocked, stunned.

Then why are you helping me?

What choice did I have? Phone a doctor...

No, I must go through with it.

There it is.

Three o'clock tomorrow, shipping control station, Kronberg Castle, Malvern.

That's nice and simple, straight to the point.

That gives us the rest of the day.

You know, a good general always inspects the ground before he gets into a fight.

You expecting a fight?

With that much money involved, there's nothing I don't expect.

Now, you are quite certain that you have it clear?

Yes, Father.

Oh, I know. I know. I'm sorry.

It's just...

A great deal depends on this.

It must all go just like clockwork. No, no, no, it's all there.

I checked it myself.

Can I get started?

Oh, the hire car that you choose. Now, make quite sure.

I know.

Very ordinary, nothing that'll stand out, nice dull color.

Look, Katie.

Good luck.

Try and get some rest.

Big place. They picked a good spot.

Yes.

There's something that bothers me.

What?

So far, this has been the perfect robbery. The police are stone cold.

They don't know where to start.

Right.

So why take the chance of making a deal with us?

Why accept 10% when they could get more from a fence?

Oh, that's where the double-cross theory to me seems quite logical. Look at this.

There were four men involved, you know.

Well, that'd be, I'd say, at the tops, any fence would pay me about 25%.

So, for each man, it'd be a little more than 6%.

So that if one of them decided to cut the others out,

he'd be making more than his share.

That's right. It cuts down the risk. Any insurance company will pay, oh, you know,

10% with no questions asked.

You're a genius. Come on. People seem to like you.

Huh?

The poodle, I mean.

Yeah.

For how long will you require the car, please? Oh, just for this afternoon.

I should be back here by about five.

Oh, thank you.

And if I may just see your driving license, please.

Thank you.

Miss Hanson will show you to your car.

That's the shipping control station over there. Now,

you need a place to watch them where they can't see you.

Or you can see the whole area.

How about that?

I had a customer in not long ago, a Katie Bergen.

That was one of the names you asked me to look out for.

Can you describe her?

Oh, attractive, blonde, about 19 or 20.

She was wearing a light-colored mac.

When's she coming back for the car?

This afternoon, about 5.

Why do you want her?

It's not her we wanted.

It's her father. He's got something of ours.

That's for you.

Thank you.

It must be important to you.

It is.

Very important.

¶¶

Anybody up there?

When can you have the money ready?

As soon as I'm satisfied, you can deliver.

We want to complete the transaction tonight.

It's possible?

All the proof you want is here.

I'm throwing down a bag.

Got it. Now you name the time and place.

You still there?

Did you see her?

No, you?

Yes, when she put the note on the bench. I'd recognize her again.

What's in the bag?

Let's go back to the car and take a look.

Well, at least we know we're dealing with the right people.

Every single piece of jewelry on this list is in these photographs.

It's impressive.

Like the robbery itself, everything beautifully planned.

Pictures.

They had to be taken recently.

So they show a copy of today's newspaper in every single shot. Yes,

it is well planned. Is something bothering you?

Yeah.

Everything has to be their way.

Yes, as soon as possible.

Thank you. Goodbye.

Harry, the bank will send the money over within an hour.

Good.

Where are you going?

To a meeting place.

But you're not due there for hours yet.

That's why they won't expect me.

Wait a minute. You want me to make the delivery?

Right again. The contact said if there's more than one person in the car,

there'll be no exchange. Let's do exactly as they say.

You'll be near.

Unless there's trouble. You won't even know I'm there.

It's much worse.

I'll manage.

You'll have to have proper treatment, John.

Not healing at all.

I said I'll manage.

When we get to Sweden, there is a doctor. For money,

he will fix me up without asking any questions.

Well, that's all I can do. Is there anything else you want?

This place must be cleared up.

Burn any papers.

Get rid of anything that might identify us.

It will be swarming with police a few hours after we have left.

Father.

After we have made the trade,

the insurance company have a moral obligation to report

anything to the police that they have discovered.

Listen to me.

You are still guilty of the crime, even though the goods are recovered.

Listen to me!

I'll go through with this.

I'd get you to a doctor in Sweden.

But you must understand, after that you're on your own.

What are you saying?

I'm finished.

Nothing you can say will make me change my mind.

You take your money, and I hope you find some way to enjoy it.

But the money was for you!

So you said.

Let me ask you something.

If you really cared, would you ask me to get involved?

But Katie, I had to.

I couldn't do it on my own. Not like this.

I had to.

But why did it have to be me? Why me?

Because you are my daughter!

That's what I mean!

Wasn't that a good enough reason to leave me alone?

It has all been planned down to the last detail.

It will be all right.

Do you want to go over it again?

When we have the money, you will feel differently.

You have been under a great strain.

I understand.

I wish you did.

All right, I'm satisfied you're not being followed.

Take the path to your left.

Keep going in the same direction until I tell you to stop.

Wait there!

Now, I want to get this over as quickly as possible. We'll go inside the house,

and you can examine the jewelry.

If you're satisfied, then I'll count the money.

That sounds reasonable. All right, then. Go ahead of me.

Oh, incidentally, if you're thinking of trying to leave without paying,

there is someone else inside the house.

Yes, he's still alive.

Just.

Help me to make him more comfortable.

It's so cold.

Is there a telephone?

No.

There's a pay box up on the main road.

He needs a doctor quickly.

But if I bring a doctor, then the police...

Very critical condition.

Now isn't that thoughtful?

So now you really have something to bargain with.

Look, you all are here. Now we'll see if Bergen wants

to make a fight of it. Olaf, you come with me.

Keep low.

Under cover.

We might be a bit...

Come on.

Keep down.

Is there a back door?

No.

Can they get in that way?

Yes. There's a window.

You got another gun?

Upstairs.

Get it.

Caroline, cover that window.

Right.

They're moving in.

This is what you came for.

Thanks, but right now, I'd rather have this.

Harry, there's someone near this window.

Hold it.

Don't make one false move, lady.

Drop it.

You, over here.

Come on, move it.

Hold it up.

Open the case.

Come on!

I'm taking the girl with me.

If you make one false move to get out of here before I'm clear, she gets it.

I think about it, and yeah, it makes sense.
