OSS 117: PANIC IN BANGKOK

Colonel, Mr Smith is calling for you urgently.

Thank you.

Christopher Lemmon, who represented
our service in Thailand...

was killed as he was about
to shed light on this case.

He passed on
some very alarming information.

Cases of the plague in India.

Overpopulation, moderate hygiene...

Is that anything exceptional?

Not at first sight.

Coincidentally, these cases of plague...

seem to follow anti-cholera vaccinations...

from the Hogby Laboratories in Bangkok.

Incredible, eh?

I'll show you the documents
I was sent.

March 1: in the Bombay region...

the army burned
a plague-infested village.

March 8:

four cases of plague identified
in a Chandernagore hospital.

We await Lemmon's replacement.

- Using my intuition...
- You're right. It's you.

Oh! How clumsy!
So sorry.

I hope nothing's broken.

Oh, sorry.

Your film is fogged.

Give me your address.
I'll send you a blow-up.

No, there's no need, thank you.

No. Not this one, the other.

Here, take this.
Hotel Erawan.

Thank you, sir.

I'm Hubert Barton.
I've a room reserved.

Take my bag up.
I'll be back around 8pm.

Very good, sir.

224 Rajdamnern Central Avenue.

Miss?

Thank you.

The fourth? What a coincidence.

I absolutely must see you again

to give you an enlargement
of this photo.

You can obtain a print
at any hour of the night

by asking for me
at the Hotel Erawan, room 236.

No doubt you'd prefer home delivery.

What's your address?

Good morning.

Stop bothering me.
I'm here to work.

- Me too.
- What's wrong, Eva?

Mr Leacock, could you get rid
of this maniac

who followed me here?

- Get out, sir.
- N0.

- Come in, then.
- Thank you.

- Tell me what this means.
- Mr Leacock, no doubt.

Mr Smith asked me
to give you this letter

which will give you
all the necessary explanations.

In that case, Mr Barton,
what can I do to help you?

That's an odd way of putting people
in their place.

My place? That's where I am.
And I intend to stay here.

I'll even ask you to fix a meeting
with Professor Hogby.

With pleasure. Who shall I say?

If you hadn't torn up my card,
you'd know.

Eva, this is Mr Barton,
our new associate.

- My name is Hubert.
- My secretary, Miss Eva Davidson.

Charmed.

- You have full powers?
- Yes.

I'm thrilled.

I'll finally be able
to take a month's vacation.

I doubt that.

It won't last a month.
And I'll be needing you.

But in the meantime...

...are you satisfied
with your secretary?

Yes.

You trust her implicitly?

You should be aware

that all our staff
were subjected to strict screening.

Of course.
But like all humans,

they have faults
as well as qualities.

- Is she intelligent?
- Yes.

- Conscientious?
- Yes.

Curious?

You scared me.

I came to say Professor Hogby's
expecting you at four.

Thank you, Eva.

Come, Barton,

you don't think Professor Hogby
distributes polluted vaccines?

I never said that.

- He's a professional.
- Let's investigate and see.

You'll have to introduce me
to Bangkok's notables

as Lemmon's succesor.

I'll do it today.

There's a party
at the American embassy.

- Here's an invitation.
- Perfect.

By the way, do you know that man
in the glasses?

Never seen him before. Why?

He followed me from the airport.

I must look friendly to him.

Let me have the complete file
on this case.

With pleasure.

Take care of it.
It's the only copy.

Unique pieces are the ones
that excite collectors the most.

- You are Mr Sonsak?
- Yes, sir.

Hubert Barton,
Christopher Lemmon's replacement.

- Would you do me a favour?
- With pleasure.

Did Lemmon have a car?

Yes. It's in the garage.
I have the keys.

Right. Bring it round to
the Hotel Erawan tonight at eight.

Bring the keys and my bag
to room 236.

- Very well, Mr Barton.
- See you later.

To Hogby Laboratories.

Whatever happens,
keep going as fast as you can.

Yes, sir. Thank you, sir.

- Here.
- Thank you.

Goodbye.

How may I help you?

I've a meeting with Professor Hogby.
I'm a little late.

I'm sorry, but he left.

I'm Hubert Barton.

Yes. I'd noted that.

But someone called
to cancel your appointment.

Who called? Man or woman?

I didn't take the call personally.

When will he be back?

Not for a few clays.

Never mind. Could you call me a cab
for the Hotel Erawan?

Certainly.

Come in.

- Hello, Mr Barton.
- Hello, Mr Sonsak.

Here are the car keys.
It's parked out front.

Thank you.

I know Christopher Lemmon
thought a lot of you.

Mr Lemmon honoured me
with his trust and friendship.

- Here's your case.
- Thank you.

Can I do anything else for you?

Yes. I've a favour to ask you.

Watch my room
while I'm at the embassy.

- You think someone will come?
- It's not impossible.

If you have a visitor,
how can I warn you?

Press the button on this book,
Mr Sonsak.

Ingenious device.

Sit down.

Here's some reading.
The latest magazines from New York.

Thank you.

As soon as you see or hear
anything suspicious,

switch off the light,
go onto the balcony

and press the button, like earlier.

I'll come and join you immediately.

How will you join me
if there's someone in the room?

I'll go through the room next door.

You think of everything.

I always rent the room next door
on principle.

It's often come in handy.

It's an education working with you.

Thank you.

- Good evening, Mr Sonsak.
- Thank you, Mr Barton.

Excuse me.

Good evening.

- You haven't seen Barton?
- Not yet.

He must have met a pretty girl.

Not that pretty, then.
Here he is.

A man who knows
how to talk to women!

Come and dance.

Aren't you surprised to see me?

Not really.
You were meant to come, weren't you?

Yes.

- Did you see Professor Hogby?
- Indeed, no.

Why?

Someone cancelled.
My secretary, I was told.

- Why did you do that?
- Me? Why would I do that?

I was with Mr Leacock all the time.

- Lucky man.
- I'll have him confirm it.

Did I say I doubted your word?

You're blonde with green eyes.

And the woman I dream of
is always a blonde with green eyes.

You're jumping the gun.

That's why I'm well paid.

I don't know you yet.

Alas. But what does tomorrow hold?

Perhaps I'll be dead.

No blackmail.
It makes me thirsty.

Give me a whisky instead.

With pleasure.

- Hello, Doctor.
- Ambassador.

- Good to see you.
- Hello.

Good evening, miss.
Would you care to dance?

Good evening.

Good evening, Dr Sinn.

- Dr Sinn.
- Hubert Barton.

My associate, replacement
for Christopher Lemmon.

Mr Barton, welcome to Bangkok.

- You like the Orient?
- I love the unexpected.

Some successions
are heavy to bear.

Your predecessor's dramatic end...

I'll see what the future holds.

The future is an illusion.

The past is but a memory.
Only the present matters.

How right you are, Dr Sinn.

What you say reminds me
of a Wild West proverb.

"The egg is in the bird,
as the bird is in the egg."

Of course.

Come and dance.

- Who is that man?
- Dr Sinn.

A fashionable physician
in Bangkok's American colony.

Healer, magician, hypnotist, magus.

The women are wild about
the mysterious Dr Sinn.

Who's the girl who came with him?

I don't know her, but I can find
someone to introduce you.

No need.

Sorry to interrupt, clear chap.

The ambassador's wife
is shouting for you.

- Ambassador's wife?
- The duties of your post.

I'm sorry. Please excuse me.

The name's Hubert. Hubert Barton.

And I'm Lila Sinn.

How did Mr Barton
replace Lemmon so quickly?

I don't know.

You haven't that much work
at Robinson & Co.

- What does he do between meals?
- Courts women.

You don't give in to his advances?

You're not serious, Guna.

At least, I hope not.

Dr Sinn just informed me
that only the present matters.

It must be the climate, but...

I'm beginning to share his views.

My brother is very perceptive.

- Dr Sinn is your brother?
- Of course. What did you think?

Nothing.

But he wasn't right to conclude

that the future is an illusion.

The future can be full
of wonderful realities.

You're a brunette
with green eyes, Lila.

How strange.
The woman I dream of

is always brunette with green eyes.

I'm sorry, but I have to go.

- So soon? Why?
- A man has just come in.

I absolutely mustn't see him.

You're scared of him?

I'm scared of nothing.
Not even love at first sight.

Do you believe in love at first sight?

I believe in fate.

My name's Hubert.
I believe in fate too.

And I'm staying in room 236,
Hotel Erawan.

Why are you telling me that?

- You don't mean...
- What are you thinking?

I've noticed that fate
is rarely favourable

when I forget to give my address.

Excuse me. I really must go.

Leave it to me. Don't move.

Tell me who you work for.
Talk!

Mr Sonsak?

Mr Sonsak!

Feeling better?

- Where is he?
- He popped downstairs.

- What did he want?
- We'll find out.

"Dr Sinn."

Didn't think you'd see me so soon?

She was here first.

She agreed to give up her place
so gracefully.

Please.

You are the greatest charmer
in the West.

In the USA, perhaps.

What can I do for you?
You don't seem to need me.

You're wrong, Doctor.

If not for a consultation,
at least for some advice.

- Sit down.
- Thank you.

Fire away.

I've only been in Bangkok two clays.

Since I arrived,

I've had some strange disorders.

Such as?

Yesterday, I felt I was being
tailed by a car.

And when I went home
after the party last night,

and I suppose I was rather tired,

but it seemed like a man
was searching my room

and fighting me.

To what do you attribute that,
Doctor?

A sudden change of climate.

A very different atmosphere.

Here, conscious and unconscious
don't run on the same lines.

Your case is nothing extraordinary.

It sometimes affects westerners:

difficulty discerning
real from unreal,

the concrete from the imaginary...

It's a painful psychological state.

Curious, at least.

Is it serious?

It depends. Some adapt to it,
and some never do.

- And you consider me...?
- Unadaptable.

But there is a way to relieve you.

- What?
- Suggestion.

- Which consists in...?
- It's very simple.

I just hypnotise you.

- And that really works?
- Always.

Would you like to try it?

With pleasure,
but I've an urgent date.

Regrettable.
Your case interests me.

You'll feel so much better.
No worries, no anxiety.

Something like eternal beatitude?

A bit like that.

Cross your legs.

- Excellent reflexes.
- I'm happy with them.

Reflexes are ineffective
against occult powers.

You're talking to a materialist,
Doctor.

In this land, Mr Barton,
everything is possible.

Auditory and visual hallucinations...

...obsessive tendency to persecution...

It could get worse
unless you're careful.

Are you staying long in Thailand?

Several months, health permitting.

The climate doesn't suit you.

I advise you to turn your mind

from the matters worrying it
at the moment.

Don't stay too long in Bangkok,
Mr Barton.

Meantime, take one pill
morning and night.

You can take one now.
It's a tranquilliser.

I'd rather tranquillise myself
for now.

I'll take them ifl need them.
Thanks.

As you wish.

- Thanks for your advice.
- That's why I'm here.

Might I ask what your fees are?

The pleasure of serving you.

I don't know how to thank you.

I'd have been glad to say hello
to your charming sister.

I'm sorry.
She's just gone out.

Please be good enough
to pass on my respects.

Consider it done.

You've done me a lot of good.

No doubt I'll be seeing you soon.

Thank you.

We were right to believe in fate.

Was our meeting really accidental?

Accidental is an ugly word.

I'd sooner say it was providential.

Glad to have met you.
I must be getting home.

No. I need you.
You can't refuse me.

- I assure you that...
- As a favour.

An antiques dealer,
our company's client,

asked me to look for jades,
ancient objets d'art

and curiosities typical of Bangkok.

Without your help,
I feel totally incapable.

With pleasure, but another clay.

Today is quite impossible.

All right.
Please put it to one side.

I'll call our client.
If he decides, I'll be back.

- Very good, Mr Barton.
- Thank you.

Goodbye.

That's pretty.

I'm getting peckish
and I hate Iunching alone.

- Where are we going?
- Sorry. I must go home.

You can't refuse me lunch.

I'd be delighted to have lunch,
but it's quite impossible.

Now you really must take me back.

Yes. Waiter!

If I were your brother,

I wouldn't let you live anywhere
but with me.

The house where I live
was our parents' house.

My brother needs to be
near his clientele.

That's why he lives alone
in a flat at his surgery.

And he's always been a loner.

- A loner with three servants!
- Only during the clay.

At night he finds company
in his books.

I imagined a less austere life

for a man as attractive as him.

Don't worry about him.

He lets himself go now and then.

I've an idea. Tonight,
let's take him from his meditation.

- No.
- He can eat with us.

I can tell you that tonight
that's quite impossible.

He's already been taken
by Miss Eva Davidson.

Shame.

I'm happy, Guna,
to spend the evening with you.

Me too, Eva.

It's a rare pleasure, you must admit.

Shouldn't I see to others

before myself, and therefore you?

Yes, Doctor.

I know.

There's only one way
I can see you more often,

and that's ifl fall gravely ill.

Pass me the screwdriver.

Excuse me, Doctor.

You're wanted urgently
on the phone.

I'm sorry. Excuse me.

Hand me the transmitter.

Who'll activate it?

The slightest sound vibration
picked up by the microphone

establishes contact
and activates the transmitter.

What if Dr Sinn comes home early?

That'd be a shame.

I don't need you here.

Go to the car and listen.

When I speak, if the device
is activated and the recording works,

stay in the car.

If not, come up and tell me.

OK, Mr Barton.

Sorry for the hitch, Eva.

I'll go home for my bag,
and then drop you off.

I'll be a good while.
It's a serious case.

I'm beginning to feel
that mine is desperate.

Mr Sonsak, I hope the mic's working

and the recorder
is functioning correctly.

I'll be finished here in two minutes.

Wait for me. I'll fetch my bag.

I'll drop you at home.

- The recorder works?
- Fine, Mr Barton.

I heard everything you said.

I'll be finished here in two minutes.

Perfect. Keep listening.

If you hear anything important,
call me.

Very good.

Goodnight, Mr Sonsak.
Don't fall asleep.

You scared me.

I didn't expect
such a pleasant visitor.

I didn't expect to see you come in
through the window, Mr Barton.

My name's Hubert.
Have you forgotten already, Lila?

Hubert, a chambermaid let me in
so I could wait here.

I came because I've something
very serious to tell you.

But it's not at all serious.

Because I love you too.

Please don't joke.

It really is serious.

Hubert, you mustn't stay in Bangkok.

It's becoming a family obsession,
wanting to see me go.

Your brother gave me the same advice.

My brother has a surprising power,
a second sight.

It always comes true.

I'm sorry but I don't believe
in that kind of thing.

Then remember that
he knows a lot of people,

very important people,

and he has the gift
of being able to read their thoughts.

In the West, you would call him
a psychologist.

Yes. So what?

I'm asking you to follow his advice.

You can trust him.

I need time to think.

No whisky for me.
Just water, thanks.

Hubert, listen to me.

I'm very afraid for you.

I'm touched by your concern,

but don't let dark thoughts spoil
the pleasure of being together.

The reason I came
and I'm so insistent is that...

I hope Mr Barton
has understood the threat.

To avoid the fate
of Christopher Lemmon,

he'll probably decide
to leave Bangkok.

That's possible too.

But if he does, he won 't get far.

Someone's seeing to him right now.

I'll keep you informed.

Goodbye.

What's the matter?

I don't feel very well.

Hello, Mr Barton?

Mr Barton. Sonsak here.
It's urgent.

It's serious. Hello?

Hello?
Give me room 258, miss.

Hello?

You can come.

Where are we going?
This isn't the airport road.

Change of instructions.

But I have his passport, his ticket
and a sick note from my brother

so he can embark on the flight
for Washington.

Before leaving, the patient
must undergo a small formality.

Take him to the experimentation room

and sit him in the chair.

Where's my brother?

He won't be coming.

What's going on here?

- I have new orders.
- What orders?

What will you do to him?

I'm going to interrogate him.
No one can resist this device.

You have no right! I forbid it!

Take her away!

Leave me alone with Mr Barton.

A latest-generation lie detector,
fully equipped.

Everything needed for brainwashing.

Let's see if it works.

Don't think you'll get away with this!

- Someone will come.
- N0.

You remember.
You asked to be left alone.

The doors are too thick.
No one will hear you.

Who are you?

Who are you?

My name is Akhom.

Who do you work for?

For the Elected People.

What is the Elected People?
What are its aims?

What is the Elected People?
What are its aims?

The Elected People
is an association of wise men

determined to eliminate
the parasite races,

the victims of atomic madness
who may annihilate the whole world.

What means would they use
to destroy other races?

A new plague virus.

- Is Eva Davidson your accomplice?
- I don't know her.

- Who killed Christopher Lemmon?
- My men and I.

Lemmon was a danger
to the Elected People.

He had to be eliminated.

How many men are here?

- Six.
- Where are they?

Three down by the jetty,
three near the house. All armed.

And what are your duties?

What are your duties?

I'm here to make people talk.

Attention. Bring Miss Sinn

to the experimentation room.

Face the wall! Quick!

Help me.

There.

Better than a sleeping draught.

Much more efficient.

Be good.

I'll go out that way.

I'll attract the three men
guarding the villa

and those watching the jetty.

While they're chasing me,

leave this way and take the outboard.

Where will I meet you?

Go around the island
and land on the other side.

But, Hubert, they'll kill us!

You'll bring me good luck.
Here's my talisman.

Excuse me.

Get up! Do something!
Untie me!

Look! The boat on the left!

Look.

Let's go.

You are in danger.
You can't go home.

- Your brother is...
- He won't harm me.

If I'm in danger, he must be too.

Anyway, now that you've helped me,
my enemies are yours.

Excuse me, Mr Barton.
But I know a place

where Miss Sinn could stay
in safety as long as she likes.

Untie me!

- Almost there, Mr Barton.
- Good.

My friend Prasit and his family.

- Prasit.
- Yes.

Could I ask you a favour?

My house is your house,
your wish is my command.

Mr Barton is my friend.

The young lady with him
is in danger.

Can she take refuge here?

I will stake my life on her safety.

Lila, don't leave here
and wait for me.

I promise.

I checked
all your clients' addresses.

They're all honest firms
except for one.

See for yourself.

Moulmein Hospital.
Moulmein, Burma. Well?

I called the number.
The hospital doesn't exist.

But you've delivered crates of vaccines
bearing this address.

I'll check.

Miss, bring me
the Moulmein Hospital file.

Right away, Professor.

I don't see how you can conclude
that ampoules from our labs

contain the plague virus.

- It's crazy!
- Yes. But...

Give me that.

Six months ago, we dispatched
3O crates of cholera vaccines.

What would you say if those crates
didn't leave Bangkok clocks,

but were stolen and your serum replaced
by cultures of deadly plague virus?

I'd say you read
too many trashy thrillers.

May I telephone?

If you're not scared
of catching the plague.

I know British stubbornness too well
to try to convince you with proof.

Hello, Eva? Leacock here.

I'm at Hogby Laboratories.
I have the missing proof.

Call Hubert.
Tell him to come by the office.

Very well. I'll call him right away.

Hello?

Tell the garage to bring my car
around front in 1O minutes.

Thank you, miss.

Hello?

Mr Barton's car?

We're on the case.

Hurry.

I just have to connect
the battery wires.

The clock will start
when the ignition is turned.

To be sure he's in the car
when it goes up.

Give him 15 minutes,

so it doesn't blow up
too close to the hotel.

See for yourself.

Ignition.

Kill the ignition. It works.

Now park the car
in front of the hotel.

Yes?

It's me. Hello, Leacock.

Yes, I've been here for an hour.

- Eva hasn't called?
- N0.

I don't understand.

I told her to call
half an hour before lunch.

Right.

You're on the right track, Barton.

Thanks to Hogby,
I have the key to this riddle.

Come over.

OK, I'll be right there.

I was expecting you, Mr Barton.

There's important news.

Right.

We've done the business
on Hubert Barton.

Any moment now
he'll be history.

The exchange of crates
scheduled in two days' time

will happen tonight at 4am,
in warehouse 28.

Mr Sonsak, I'll be needing you tonight.

With pleasure, Mr Barton.

My friend Prasit
could make himself useful.

OK. Three of us would be better.

Why not four?

Be good enough
to give me that tape,

which will tell me when
and whom we are to meet.

Gladly. The more, the merrier.

Might I make so bold
as to ask for your car keys?

- I came on foot.
- I left them in the car.

To ensure ou don't follow me
I

give me the keys to the truck, too.

Don't move. That's as much
in my interest as in yours.

Be careful, if you're taking my car.

My brakes are rather slack.

Who is this guy?

Who was that guy?

A former Nazi, a double agent.

Always ready to serve
the highest bidder.

Now he's gone.

Last minute news.
A car exploded in town.

The driver, Hubert Barton, of the firm
Robinson & Co, died in the flames.

He was assassinated.

Early investigations have not yet
yielded a motive for the crime.

Yes.

Yes, I know.
I heard it on the radio.

Guna, I've always obeyed you
without question.

But you lied to me.

You swore you wouldn't harm
Hubert Barton.

And he's just been murdered.

You will pay for this crime.

I didn't want Barton to die.

If you don't believe me, shoot.

I understand your sorrow, Lila.

I won't leave you again.

I'll do everything I can
to make you forget this tragedy.

Sonsak. Be ready.

They're about to go.

We're heading north.

We're carrying straight on.

Straight on.

Sonsak, we're coming to a monastery.

A monastery.
I only know one in this region.

Hide close by.

Be ready to step in at the first sign.

Unpack the equipment.
We'll be needing it soon.

Your attention, please.
The grand master of our order

has a communication for you
of the greatest importance.

Please stop working

and go immediately
to the meeting room.

I have summoned the elite members
of our brotherhood

to thank you for your effort

and to congratulate you
on the remarkable research results.

Our new plague virus is ready.

Those not immunised
with our serum will die.

Flowers, birds,

wind and rain will spread death
to all continents.

The world will end
in the multiplication of beings

that one day the soil
will no longer feed.

What does it matter

how many lumberjacks there are,
if the forest has no more trees?

What does it matter if,
in ancestral migrations,

clouds of birds disappear?

Other birds will fly further.

The time has come when,
for the dignity of man,

millions of men must perish.

Barely-evolved nations
with primitive philosophies,

with their criminal
atomic experiments,

risk causing our planet to crumble.

It is our duty to destroy them,

leaving behind the spirituality
of an ancient civilisation.

Then ancl only then
will our goal have been attained.

The victory of those who have gone
beyond human, the elected race.

Dr Sinn, you are my prisoner.

Order your followers to try nothing

or you're dead.

I order you to try nothing.

Back to your places.

Mr Barton, despite your weapon
and your smugness,

you can do nothing against me.

Stand aside!

Mr Barton, I did like you.
But you've caused too much trouble.

I shall now send you back
to your country.

After an injection to make you
sleep soundly for several clays,

I'll be delighted
to give you another one myself

containing our new virus.

So the top American agent

will have one last mission.

To contaminate his family
and take the plague to America.

Dr Sinn, you're mad!

Take him to the operations room.

Guna, you can't do this.
It's impossible!

Oh, yes, I can.

Your duty is to obey unhesitatingly.

Don't make me regret your presence.

You'll obey me like the rest, Eva.

Very well.

I shall obey you.

Lila.

- What do you want, Miss Davidson?
- Lila, I need your help.

I don't care any more.

Lila, help me.
Guna has gone mad.

No one escapes their fate.

Lila.

Listen to me.
Hubert Barton is alive.

Alive?

Your brother is holding him prisoner.

Only we can still save him.

Prepare the anaesthetic according
to my formula and administer it.

Come.

Hurry. Be quick.

Give him the injection.

Watch out!

- Come.

This way!

Come quick!

Mr Barton works well.

We can't miss this.

Watch out!

- We're saved.
- Along with millions of others.
