All language subtitles for Danger Man - Secret Agent S3E09 - English Lady Takes Lodgers

Well I must say, you're all great company.

It's been a sparkling evening.

Well, time I turned in.

Good night, Christopher darling.

Wake up in a better temper.

I only wish I could
tuck into my little cot.

I have some business in town yet.

Good night, Emma.

Good night, Phillippe, give her my love.

Oh, to whom must I give your love?

The little dark girl.

Oh, I only wish it were.

No, I said work.

What a gruesome evening.

Your behavior was uncivilized, all of you.

You coming?

Not just yet.

I'll be up in a minute.

I carry your bag, gentleman?

No thanks.
-Yes please.

No thank you.

Yes.

I'd like a taxi.

Here, thank you.

Oh there you are, Drake.

Good afternoon, I hope you
had a pleasant journey.

Good afternoon, Mr. Pilkington.

You know perfectly well
my cover name is Erasmus.

We are on the same side, Mr. Pilkington.

Don't you think it's
a mistake to be too devious?

Wouldn't it have been less suspicious

if I'd come to the
embassy in the normal way?

No it wouldn't, Drake.

Out here in Lisbon, we're security minded.

We have to be.

The police are extremely suspicious.

The authorities are fed
up with their country

being overrun by spies,
and why shouldn't they be,

I should like to ask.

It was absolutely unnecessary for London

to send an agent out here at all.

You're not drinking too
much, are you, Mr. Erasmus?

We don't like members of
the Foreign Service abroad

drinking too much, makes them vulnerable.

Really, Drake.

A joke.

I'm sorry to disturb the even
tenor of your life out here,

but London suspects that
there's an agency in this city

exchanging stolen secrets,
and some very important ones

of ours are being marketed out here.

If there was anything like that going on,

I'd be bound to know all about it.

I'm sure you would.

I don't see why London thinks it knows

more about it than I do.

As head of security out here,
the very least they could

show me is the courtesy of
allowing me to handle things.

That's why I've come to you.

I should be most grateful

for a full briefing on the situation.

As far as a market in
international secrets goes,

there is no situation.

What about the mysterious disappearance

of the Englishman out here?

Stanway?

Well there's nothing in that for you,

Drake, nothing political.

George Stanway is a thoroughly
straightforward smuggler.

However much I deplore officially
his rather unconventional

way of making a living, I,

he's a perfectly splendid fellow.

I'm very happy to count him
as one of my friends.

He's the last man who
would betray his country.

I'd like to make my own assessment.

Who are his associates?

Well, there's a naval
commander chap called Collinson.

I believe he's George's partner
in his smuggling activities,

a gruff old sea dog.

Not my type, actually, but
thoroughly reliable politically.

What do you think happened to Stanway?

Mrs. Stanway went up to bed one night.

George stayed downstairs, and
she hasn't seen him since.

I think, if you ask me, he'd
had about enough of her.

What kind of woman is she?

Emma Stanway? An odious woman.

She came out here to dance professionally,

in a casino in Esterel

George, now he's a wonderful person.

I tried to tell him
what a terrible mistake he was making,

but oh, what's the use?

He has a fascinating
villa up on the coast,

and she has turned it
into a boardinghouse.

I'm happy to say that the
English community here

has nothing to do with her.

That must be hard for her.

Anything else?

No, except that she seems to run the villa

as if it were a pull-up
for any waif or stray

who happened to spin
her a hard-luck story.

I'll keep in touch.

Uh, Mrs. Stanway?

Good evening, I'm John Drake.

Well come in, Mr. Drake.

Oh.

That man from the municipo,

I could kill him with my bare hands.

Twice this week,
I dragged myself to Cascais,

twice he smiles and says,
si, senora, I will fix it.

Fix it?

You're English.

Yes, I'm a friend of Arthur Harrison's.

Arthur, I thought he was In South Africa.

He was.

There was a slight misunderstanding
about the rightful

ownership of some diamonds.

Had to leave rather suddenly.

I met him in Biarritz,

he's got a small gambling syndicate there.

Dear Arthur. He and George
were in the navy together.

George is my husband.

Well, what can I do for you?

Don't tell me.

If ever you're in Lisbon, go and see Emma.

She'll give you a bed.

Yes.

But there's unfortunately a slight snag.

You wouldn't be a friend
of Arthur's if there wasn't.

Yes, a little trouble concerning a check

I cashed in England.

Nothing, of course, that I can't put right

as soon as I'm in funds
again, you understand.

Don't talk to me about checks.

Yes, well, I got as far as Biarritz,

and then I understand
there might be some trouble

about crossing the frontier,
so a friend of Arthur's

who is taking a yacht
to Tangiers dropped me

on the beach just above, Cascais?

Cascais.

Cascais, yes.

So you entered Portugal illegally?

Yes, I'm afraid I did.

I see, so you crossed France all right?

Yes, they stamped my
passport, perfectly in order,

as you can see.

So you need,

how do I know you're not
other than you say you are?

Well, you see, Arthur said to say to you,

large whites.

Yes, that's Arthur.

Well I knew you were all
right as soon as you came in.

What star are you?

Sagittarius.

I knew it, so am I.

Let's get to work.

Arthur tells me you run
a sort of boarding house here.

Oh, I don't do too badly
in the season, you know.

Could you shut the window please?

Yes.

If I can have your passport please.

So you entered Calais on
the 23rd, that's all right.

So, we'll say,

you left France

on the 29th.

You were in Spain the same night.

Now you're leaving Spain.

On your way to

sunny Portugal, where you arrive

on the 30th.

Not forgetting, of course,
that you're only allowed

60 days in our fair country.

I'm most impressed.

Would you please open the window?

Colonel Torres, what a pleasant surprise.

I do hope I'm not intruding, Mrs. Stanway.

I rang the bell, but there was no answer.

It doesn't seem to be
working too often lately.

I was just looking through
some of George's things

to see if there was some
clue to his disappearance.

Company stamps from
a company he used to own.

Colonel Torres, this is John Drake.

The colonel's a very important
man in our police force here.

How do you do, Colonel?

Mr. Drake, you are living in Portugal?

I arrived this morning.

Then I hope your stay
will be a pleasant one.

Thank you, very much.

Mrs. Stanway, you have made
me very happy this evening.

I'm always happy to do that.

What is it?

Some of the ....... spiritual gaiety

has returned to your face.

Yes, a little I think.

You were very beautiful
when you were most sad.

But the sadness and the
gaiety, that is irresistible.

You should come more often.

You do wonders for my morale.

But I bring bad news.

Oh dear.

Excuse me, I--

Don't go, please stay.

What is it?

I am sorry to have to
tell you that the man

in the hospital in Naples
was not your husband.

We received the pictures and
description this morning.

I guessed that it wasn't.

But you hoped it was.

Well, thank you for
letting me know so soon.

Shall we all have a drink?

When one is most worried and
unhappy, a little distraction

is sometimes a very good thing.

I would consider it a great
honor if you would allow me

to entertain you one evening.

Los Angeles is singing at the Opera.

That's a nice idea, but not just yet.

You do understand, don't you?

Ah yes, of course.

Here's to your stay in Lisbon, John Drake.

That's very kind of you, thank you.

How long will you be staying

in Portugal, Mr. Drake?

I haven't made up my mind yet.

You have business here?

Not exactly, I'm a writer.

What kind of books do you write?

Tell you the truth, I haven't had

a great deal of success so far.

What are you writing now?

A novel.

Mr. Drake, you do understand that you must

call the police headquarters
if you intend to stay here.

Yes, I'll remember that.

However, I can save you the trouble.

If you will just allow
me to see your passport,

a visit to headquarters
will not be necessary.

That's er, kind of you.

Yes, that is order, thank you, Mr. Drake.

Thank you.

Emma, I was thinking--

Oh, why, hello, Colonel Torres.

Commander Collinson.

This is John Drake,
he's come to stay with us.

Oh, how do you do?
-Hello, Commander.

I'll have a drink, if I may.

Well I must be going.

Don't let me drive you away, Colonel.

I don't think you
could do that, Commander.

Well, I will wish you goodbye, Mr. Drake.

Goodbye, Colonel.

You won't forget?

Oh goodness me, no.

Thank you for coming to tell me yourself.

Well, I wish the news
could have been better.

Goodbye, Colonel Torres.

Phillippe, he's gone.

Oh what a homecoming, eh?

I nearly ran into your
passionate policeman.

You shouldn't make fun of him.

He'll get over it.

Hello, Commander.

You two haven't met, have you?

Mr. Drake, Mr. Granville.

Hello.
-Enchante.

How'd it go, any luck?

Shall we go outside?

Yes, let me see Mr. Drake
up to his room first.

Good, yes.

It's not been my day.

Excuse me.

When will it arrive?

Tomorrow.

Where did he come from?

I have no idea, he
was here when I arrived.

Don't move, Drake.

Confound that fox.

I thought I got him that time.

His days are numbered anyway.

Good thing I spotted you.
Could have been a nasty accident.

Yes, I was quite relieved myself.

I didn't mean to go after him tonight,

but I couldn't sleep.

Same with me, I thought a walk might help.

Ah, yes, yes.

Interested in birds?

Yes, sometimes.

Some fine specimens around here.

Hobby of mine, you know, birdwatching.

And Master Fox has been going
around raiding the nests,

so he and I are gonna have a little talk.

I thought it wasn't the
done thing to shoot foxes.

Look Drake, I've done my bit
as an English country squire.

Out here, if I want to shoot
a fox, I'll shoot a fox.

Tell me, what do you do?

I'm a writer.

Oh yes?

I like Bulldog Drummond, good stuff.

Come on, this way.

I'm certainly looking forward
to meeting Emma's husband.

Arthur says that he's quite a fellow.

He is indeed.

When's he coming back?

Wish I knew.

Good night.

Not taking another walk?

I thought I'd just
sit out here for a while

and have a little ponder.

Well, good night.
-Good night.

I couldn't sleep.

I was looking for a cigarette.

Get out of here.

I'm afraid I helped myself.

I hope you don't mind.

This was on your desk.

John, have you any money?

About the price of a beer.

Why didn't you say?

I felt embarrassed.

Do you think you're the first man I've met

who didn't have any money?

I have a certain amount of pride.

Do you want some money?

Very much so.

Well you'll have to earn it.

That's the way I usually get it.

Yes, perhaps.

All right, Emma, leave him to me.

Good night.

Good night, Cherie.

Come in here.

Sit down here.

Mind if I smoke?

So you have come here to bum off Emma?

Beg your pardon.

Oh, you won't be the first.

I think I know the kind of man you are.

Then you know more than I do.

You will please not attempt to engage

her sympathy emotionally.

What do you mean?

She has suffered quite a lot.

We don't want any more upsets.

What happened to her husband?

He will turn up.

Emma is very brave, but,

it is the uncertainty
that is destroying her.

Mr. Drake, you will please remember

that George is my closest friend.

Would you care for a drink?

Thank you.

Emma tells me that you know Artur.

Arthur, oh yes yes, we knocked about a bit

from time to time.

I see.

One of our associates,
who was going to help us

out tomorrow, has let us down.

As a matter of fact, he's been pulled in

by the police for questioning.

Anyway, we could do with a new face.

I might be that face?

The Commander and I were discussing you.

How long before I'm
pulled in for questioning?

Never.

Not if you behave intelligently.

Anyway, not for a long time,

and in that time you will have
made a great deal of money.

Sounds like the sort of
thing I might be interested in.

Tell me more.

Before we go any further, I would like you

to understand one thing very clearly.

That if ever you are
unfortunate enough to be caught,

you will keep your mouth shut.

As a first offender, you will get no more

than a heavy fine.

We will see that it is paid for you.

Then I have nothing
to worry about, have I?

Just one thing.

That you don't ever mention us.

Because if you do, you will
find yourself in the Atlantic

with a bullet in your head.

Somebody else will find me.

Here, try this.

You've got quite a selection of stuff.

Yes, we have.

Mmm, smashing.

It's quite nice.

You've shaved too.

Yes.

lime we were going, come on.

You look very splendid, too, Christopher.

Thank you, Emma, my dear.

Be a love and bring this, will you?

If it's not a rude question,

may I ask what this is all about.

You just do as Emma tells you, hmm?

Am I supposed to use this thing?

Just point it and press
the button when I tell you.

Excuse me.

I'm sorry, you say your people
are from the United Press?

Yes, yes, that's right.

And the name of the visiting actress is?

Fielding, Rosalind Fielding.

Fielding.

I've never heard of her.

To tell you the truth, I hadn't myself.

I got a call from the London office.

I will take them out myself.

Oh, no, my dear fellow, don't bother.

Oh, they must be accompanied to the plane.

Oh, thank you very much, Captain.

This camera hasn't got any film in it.

Yes, I know, but we won't be needing any.

This is Captain Ferrera.

Good morning, Captain.

Good morning.

I will accompany you to the aircraft.

Oh, that is kind.

Miss Fielding, I'm from United Press.

I wonder if you could
give me some information

about your stay here in Lisbon.

Well, thank you, I would,

but I haven't the time right now.

Give me a call at the hotel later, huh?

That's a stunning outfit.

Do you think we could have
just one more picture,

without all the gear.

Mmm-hmm.

Thank you, I'll take that.

Here we go.

Thank you.

Thank you so much.

Thank you.

She has taken the wrong case.

No, that's ours.

The strap was not lying like that.

Oh, it doesn't matter.

I'll drop it in on her myself
to the hotel.

Why not now?

Why not?

Miss Fielding, I'm afraid
you've got the wrong case.

I don't think so.

Oh yes, yes, that one's ours.

Are you sure?

Positive, thank you so much.

Thank you, goodbye.

Caught her just in time.

Give you a lift, Captain?

Thank you.

Everything go smoothly?

He gave her back her own case.

Why on Earth did you do that, man?

I had to, otherwise he'd
have become suspicious.

Suspicious?

What are we gonna do when they find

the stuff on her in Customs?

They won't.

Oh well, how's that?

The case is empty.

While I was driving across,

I managed to get the camera out.

Where is it?

In the glove box.

Ah, not til we're away from here.

Quick thinking!

All this?

Take it, you earned it.

As a small boy, I always
wanted to be a smuggler.

Really, it is rather romantic.

Would it be naive of me to
ask what was in the camera?

Not drugs?

Now our smuggler has a conscience?

About drugs, yes.

Why not tell him?

All right.

Industrial diamonds.

diamonds!

Well, I'll have to give up writing.

For some time now, I've suspected I didn't

have very much talent, and
it's a lonely life, isn't it?

All the same, you will continue to write.

Huh?

Being a writer, even an unsuccessful one,

is an excellent cover
for your new activities.

Yes, you'll fit very nicely
into our little colony.

No one in Lisbon will
be surprised when that

dreadful Mrs. Stanway
takes in a drunken writer.

I'm not sure my family
would approve of this.

Phillippe, can I be of assistance?

No no, no.

I don't understand why you
say that you have no talent.

I should be most interested
to read your novel.

Please do, feel free.

Thank you.

The year I lived at Dove
Place was like a year

that had been towed out into the sea

and then abandoned.

That is very good.

Thank you.

Myself, I've always
preferred a life of action.

Which reminds me, I have things to do.

Ah, you're working.

I was trying to, yes.

We're going to Cascais, you coming?

Don't tempt me, I've got
to finish this chapter.

That's a good boy.

Hello, back already?

I thought you were going into town.

I was, forgot to take any money.

You won't get far without that.

Hello, what are you doing here?

Why did you lie to me?

What do you mean?

Why?

John, I don't know what
you're talking about.

When I had my little talk
with Phillippe last night,

I was given to understand that this was a,

a straightforward smuggling organization.

Still worried about the drugs.

I promise you there's--

No, not drugs, not since I saw this.

How did you get that?

Out of your safe.

How did you open it?

I watched you yesterday.

Industrial diamonds.

If you'd told me the truth,
I wouldn't have agreed to help.

What is it, a fuse, a piece of a computer?

Whatever it is, it's
tied up with espionage.

And I'm not in that league.

I'm getting out.

Why did you have to open the safe?

You've put me in the
most impossible position.

And there's only one thing
I can do, confide in you.

It has nothing to do with smuggling.

That was just a cover.

So you are spies?

In a way, yes.

We're working for British intelligence.

So you see, you have
nothing to be ashamed of.

You expect me to believe that?

It's true.

What happened to your husband?

I'm sorry.

I'm just trying to understand.

He's dead.

They killed him.

Who?

The opposition.

I knew he was smuggling.

It wasn't much of a way of life,

and he was in trouble with the police.

But he had this nice house.

And that's when I started
taking in lodgers.

I thought, with a bit
of security behind him,

he might give it up.

And then two weeks ago,

we'd all gone up to bed.

And he stayed down here.

He seemed depressed.

And he said, I'll come
up in a minute or two.

But he didn't.

And when I came down,

I found him lying out there on the patio.

He'd been shot.

And he was dead.

And your husband was a British agent, too?

When did you discover that?

Not until after his death.

How?

Christopher and Phillippe told me.

They had to.

I might have given the whole thing away.

And then?

We buried him.

In the woods.

And furthermore,
I cannot be held responsible

for the outcome of operations
when visiting agents

are not placed under my --

Oh, no, that's a little strong.

Start again.

And furthermore, I must request.

That will be all, thank you, Richard.

I'll ring when I want you.

Morning, Drake, what do you want?

I thought you might be interested to hear

what Mrs. Stanway and her
friends are actually up to.

Oh?

They're working for British intelligence.

What? Them as well?

Oh, London has no right to do this to me.

Do you mean to tell me?

No.

Yes, she has already
recruited me into her network.

You mean, you work for
that woman, for Emma Stanway?

That's right.

But why should London send you out here

if they already have that woman?

They don't actually work for us.

She just said that as a cover.

They are running the
market that I was sent

out here to find, they
are selling our secrets.

No, to whom?

To the highest bidder.

They already have the fuse
to the new BW347 bomb.

That's outrageous.

It's not playing the game, is it?

Exactly, and we must clip
their wings right away.

I shall have one of my informers

drop a hint to Colonel Torres.

The police will investigate,

and lock them up for a year or two.

Without knowing it, they'll
be doing our work for us.

Very neat, but not just yet.

I want to find out what's
what and who's fooling who

before the Portuguese police
put them outside my reach.

Well, Drake, you're here again.

What do you want this time?

Drake?

Drake, where have you got to?

I think we'll have to change our means

of communication, don't you?

Hello there.

Good evening, John, you seem

to have been enjoying yourself.

I have, Phillippe, I have.

Well, then all's right with the world.

Not just yet, give me time.

Where have you been?

I went to Lisbon.

Ah, and what have you been doing there?

I had a look around.

It's quite a town.

It's a wonderful town.

I wish I were young again.

You're young at heart.

By the way, John.

I had a stroke of luck today.

Really, Commander, what was that?

Come with me and I'll
tell you all about it.

Well, Drake, I'm onto him at last.

You're a bit cryptic for me, Commander.

Who are you onto?

The fox, who else?

I was down by the creek this afternoon.

There's a pair of
kingfishers have settled in.

I was looking for their nest.

And there he was, by the side of the bank.

Hidden by a clump of lantana, nasty stuff.

What nasty stuff?

Lantana.

And what was hidden there?

The fox's earth.

And now I'm gonna pay
our furry friend a visit.

I'm going to dig him out.

And I'm going to put a bullet
right through his skull.

Oh, I was waiting for you to get home.

I thought perhaps you might
care to give me a hand.

I'm at your service.

Fine, let's cut along then.

We can pick up a spade from the garden.

Are you sure we've come out here

to shoot foxes, Commander?

That fox, Drake, a slippery
fellow but he's had his day.

You'll be lucky to find him at home.

Why?

Well, you know as well as I do

that foxes are nocturnal animals.

They leave their earths at night.

Oh, people do hunt them by day.

Hello, John.

Hello, I expected to find you here.

Oh really.

Yes, I expect that George Stanway's

buried somewhere in the area, is he?

Why did you expect me to
find me here, John, huh?

When I go to a special
sort of appointment,

I always wait around
for a few minutes afterwards

just to make sure I'm not being followed.

I was, and I saw you
leaving that building.

It is a pity you did not make more use

of that knowledge, huh?

Oh, I didn't come totally unprepared.

How you wish that pipe were a gun, eh?

Yes, just as a matter of interest,

why did you follow me?

I never trusted you.

I checked.

I traced Artur.

He is in Biarritz, but he
had never heard of you.

Fancy Arthur saying that.

We don't wish to be unnecessarily cruel.

We'll make it quick and easy for you,

but we would like to know
a little more about you first.

Yes, I bet you would.

Si.

Yes, who is that?

You would not know me, but I have some

information that's very important for you.

No matter, what is the
information you have for me?

I think you ought to know

what is going on up at
Emma Stanway's villa.

Mrs. Stanway?

A very charming lady, huh?

Charming?
-Do you really think so?

What is your information please?

Oh my dear fellow.

My information is they are using the villa

as a base for a spy ring,

and I think you should
do something about it.

There's no time to lose,
because my information

is that they are leaving
almost immediately.

Thank you very much for your
cooperation, Mr. Pilkington.

Have my car made ready immediately.

I shall need four men, we are
going to Mrs. Stanway's villa.

Oh, and find out if
there's any information

about Mr. Drake, huh?

Phillippe, ready?

We'll take the new car.

Registration number is not known.

Drake.

So, the rats are leaving the ship.

This is your gun, Phillippe.

I dried and cleaned it for you.

Come on, come and get it.

Don't be scared of me, I'm
just a beginner at this game.

Take your hand away from
your pocket, Commander.

And now, if you'll be kind enough

to fill me in on what's
been happening here.

Oh.

Very well, I'll tell you.

You do not work for the
British Secret Service.

You work for the opposition,

and you have found George
Stanway's smuggling activities

are a very good cover.

Smart of you to realize it.

Why was Stanway killed?

We never told George what we were doing.

We knew he'd never stand for it.

And when he did find
out what we were up to,

there was no reasoning with him.

He wanted to report the whole
thing to the British Embassy.

That was when Phillippe here

lost his head and shot him.

Shut up.

You lied to me.

You killed him.

That will be Colonel Torres.

I invited him, but unfortunately I shan't

be able to stay to receive him.

Come on.

Quick, through the gate
and down to the beach.

What's the meaning of this, Colonel?

Surely you know, Commander.

We're going to have
a long talk about espionage,

and the murder of George Stanway.

Where are the others?

They have only just left.

You will catch them if you hurry.

What's going to happen?

You're going to England,
where some very inquisitive

gentlemen are going to ask
you a lot of questions.

Can you swim?

Swim? Yes, but--

Don't worry, not all
the way, just follow me.

I'm rather familiar with this bit.
