[ Ticking ]

PERFECT.

YOU DID A BEAUTIFUL JOB, GENTLEMEN. BEAUTIFUL.

THE BAR'S OPEN. WHY DON'T YOU HAVE A DRINK? YOU DESERVE IT.

[ Door Opening ]

[ Clicks ]

YOU GOT THE TICKETS? IN MY POCKET.

THE GIRL FROM THE AIRLINE DELIVERED THEM HERSELF.

HE'S NOT GONNA LIKE THIS, GEORGE. DON'T THINK ABOUT THAT, CASS.

THINK ABOUT THE MONEY WE NOW HAVE...

THAT THEY WOULD HAVE HAD.

JOEY, I DON'T WANT ANY TRACE OF THESE BODIES FOUND.

[ Woman ] IT WAS PERHAPS INEVITABLE...

THAT THE MAN-MADE WORLD WOULD ONE DAY REQUIRE A UNIQUE WOMAN,

A WONDER WOMAN.

THAT DAY HAS COME.

YOU ARE THAT UNIQUE WOMAN, DIANA.

YOU WILL BE THE WONDER WOMAN.

SO, HAVING PARTED FROM THE MANY SISTERS YOU'VE KNOWN ALL THE DAYS OF YOUR LIFE,

NOW PART FROM THESE FEW WHO ARE YOUR CLOSEST FRIENDS.

PART FROM THEM WITH THE SAME DIGNITY AND STRENGTH... [ Bracelets Clanging ]

YOUR NEW LIFE WILL DEMAND.

YOU MAKE A SACRIFICE I COULD NEVER MAKE, DIANA.

AND I WOULD GO IN YOUR PLACE WITHOUT HESITATION...

TO THE WONDERS OF THE OUTSIDE WORLD.

THERE IS NO GREATER WONDER THAN THE PEACE AND JOY WE HAVE ON OUR ISLAND, ANGELA.

[ Bracelets Clanging ] [ Diana ] HOW I SHALL MISS YOU, TING.

[ Bracelets Clanging ] AND YOU, MY SISTER.

[ Bracelets Clanging ]

YOU'RE ENDOWED WITH EXTRAORDINARY WISDOM, LOVE AND STRENGTH, DAUGHTER.

AND NOW YOU'RE CHARGED WITH A MISSION.

TO ACCOMPLISH THAT MISSION, YOU MUST LEAVE THIS ISLAND.

YOU MUST ADOPT OTHER WAYS,

FOR THAT IS THE ONLY TRUE MEANS...

OF TAKING OUR PURE AND TRUE LOVE OF JUSTICE AND RIGHT...

TO THAT WORLD BEYOND OURS HERE.

THERE'S DEEP SADNESS IN HAVING YOU LEAVE US,

BUT THERE'S ALSO JOY,

THE HOPE THAT YOUR PRESENCE IN THE WORLD OF MAN...

WILL OPEN CLOSED EYES TO THE GENUINE VALUE OF WOMEN,

THAT YOU'LL NEVER LOSE THE SENSITIVITY THAT IS OUR REAL STRENGTH.

[ Bracelets Clanging ]

YOU CARRY WITH YOU OUR LOVE.

YES, SIR.

'COURSE I UNDERSTAND THE IMPLICATIONS, KOMMISSAR.

I THINK WE CAN WORK OUT A COMPROMISE.

THEY'RE WILLING TO MAKE AN EXCHANGE... SHERNITZKY FOR LOWCHI.

CONSIDER THE PROPOSAL. I'LL PHONE BACK.

BOTH SIDES ARE CONSIDERING AN EXCHANGE, MR. SECRETARY.

I'LL PHONE YOU BACK WHEN A DECISION IS REACHED.

I WANT ALL AVAILABLE AGENTS IN THE AREA AT ONCE, DIANA.

THEY'RE ALREADY ON THEIR WAY. - GOOD.

I RESERVED THE COMPUTER AND THEY'RE WAITING FOR YOUR CALL AT THE DATA BANK.

LINE THREE-EIGHT. - YOU'RE ALWAYS A STEP AHEAD OF ME.

DATA BANK, LINE THREE-EIGHT.

WELL, HERE'S TODAY'S SURPRISE.

I KNOW IT'S SMALL, BUT IT'S THE BEST I COULD DO ON SHORT NOTICE.

THAT'S SWEET. THANKS.

[ Intercom Buzzes ] YES, SIR?

SEND THEM IN WHEN THEY GET HERE, D.

THEY'RE HERE, SIR. GENTLEMEN?

GO RIGHT ON IN.

DINNER, D? DON'T ANSWER NOW. THINK ABOUT IT.

THINK ABOUT IT.

GENTLEMEN,

THE COMPLETE LIST OF ALL OUR AGENTS IN THE FIELD,

THEIR COVER IDENTITIES AND THEIR SPECIFIC ASSIGNMENTS HAS BEEN STOLEN,

AND WITH THAT LIST, THE KEY TO EVERY DIPLOMATIC AND MILITARY CODE...

IN USE BY OUR GOVERNMENT THROUGHOUT THE WORLD.

EACH WAS BROKEN DOWN INTO FIVE PARTS,

ALL FIVE PARTS BEING NECESSARY TO USE ANY OF THEM.

THERE WERE DOZENS OF DECOY BOOKS PLANTED IN VARIOUS EMBASSIES THROUGHOUT THE WORLD.

NONE OF THOSE WERE TOUCHED. JUST THE TEN VALUABLE BOOKS.

THEY WERE KEPT IN HIGHLY SECRET HIDING PLACES...

IN BERLIN, ISTANBUL,

RIO DE JANEIRO, PARIS...

AND LONDON.

THEFTS TOOK PLACE SIMULTANEOUSLY AND INGENIOUSLY,

JUST AFTER OUR AGENTS HAD FINISHED REPORTING IN.

AS YOU ALL KNOW, AN AGENT IN THE FIELD REPORTS IN EVERY 72 HOURS...

AT A PREARRANGED TIME AT TEN MINUTE INTERVALS,

WHICH MEANS WE ARE COMPLETELY OUT OF TOUCH WITH ALL OF OUR AGENTS...

FOR THE NEXT 72 HOURS.

THEY CAN'T BE REACHED OR WARNED BETWEEN COMMUNICATIONS.

IF THOSE LISTS AND CODES FALL INTO THE HANDS OF OUR ADVERSARIES,

OUR PEOPLE WILL BE AT THEIR MERCY FOR THE NEXT THREE DAYS.

COMPLETELY VULNERABLE TO BE APPREHENDED OR ELIMINATED.

THIRTY-NINE OF OUR BEST INTELLIGENCE OPERATORS.

AND WITH THOSE 39 LIVES LOST, OUR ENTIRE ORGANIZATION...

WILL CEASE TO EXIST IN THAT ONE DEADLY SWEEP.

NOW, THE THIEF KNOWS THAT, AND HAS SET HIS PRICE...

FOR RETURNING THOSE TEN BOOKS ACCORDINGLY...

$15 MILLION IN CASH.

HE HAS GIVEN US 48 HOURS TO GATHER THE MONEY.

HE WILL CONTACT US AGAIN IN ONE OF OUR TOP-SECRET CODES...

AS TO WHERE AND HOW THE RANSOM IS TO BE PAID.

GIVEN ALL THE PERTINENT INFORMATION, OUR DATA BANK OF COMPUTERS...

HAS COME UP WITH ONLY THREE INDIVIDUALS OR ORGANIZATIONS...

CAPABLE OF THIS ENTERPRISE.

BRIDGE CRIME CARTEL HEADED BY WINSTON THOMAS,

WITH HEADQUARTERS IN LANDOF, WALES;

CHARLES SANGRY, FREELANCE OPERATIVE WITHOUT NATIONALITY,

LAST KNOWN LOCATION: CARACAS, VENEZUELA;

AND ABNER SMITH, A CONTRACTOR WHO SETS UP INTELLIGENCE OPERATIONS...

FOR ANY NUMBER OF NATIONS.

LAST KNOWN LOCATION: CAP d'ANTIBES, FRANCE.

NEVER PHOTOGRAPHED. THIS IS A CAR USED...

IN AN OPERATION LAST YEAR.

YOU'VE EACH GOT ONE HOUR TO DEVISE A COUNTER PLAN TO RECOVER THOSE BOOKS...

AND SAVE THOSE LIVES.

ALL RIGHT, CLOCK IS TICKING. GET ON IT.

WELL, D, WHAT DO YOU THINK?

I'M AFRAID I... I CAN'T HAVE DINNER WITH YOU TONIGHT.

PROBABLY JUST AS WELL. ODDS ARE I'LL BE IN CARACAS BY DINNER TIME.

BOB? YOU WILL BE CAREFUL?

SEE YOU LATER.

WHAT DO YOU THINK, D? WHAT CAN ANYONE THINK WITH THAT MANY LIVES IN JEOPARDY?

STEVE? HMM?

I'LL BE AWAY FROM THE OFFICE FOR A WHILE.

A DENTAL APPOINTMENT. I LOST A FILLING.

IT HAPPENS. I HOPE YOU'LL FEEL UP TO COMING IN TOMORROW.

WELL, YOU NEVER KNOW HOW LONG THESE THINGS WILL TAKE.

PHONE IN AND LET ME KNOW? - FIRST CHANCE I GET.

I CAN CALL THE STENO POOL AND HAVE SOMEONE COME IN AND REPLACE ME WHILE I'M GONE.

HEY.

NOBODY CAN REPLACE YOU.

AT TIMES LIKE THIS, I REALLY WORRY ABOUT YOU.

I KNOW.

BUT PLEASE DON'T. I'M SURE I CAN HANDLE IT.

IF ANYONE CAN, YOU CAN.

BUT I STILL WORRY. THANKS.

WHICH DENTIST ARE YOU GOING TO TRY?

[ With French Accent ] I THINK ZE FRENCH ONE.

INTUITION?

I WOULD HAVE GUESSED THE ENGLISH. - C'EST LA VIE.

OH, C'EST VOUS, MADEMOISELLE.

[ Speaking In French ]

702. ONE OF OUR VERY BEST.

YEAH. MERCI.

WONDER WOMAN. SHE'S HERE. ROOM 702.

HOLD ON. YOU WERE RIGHT, MR. SMITH.

SHE JUST CHECKED INTO THE HOTEL ST. GERMAIN, ROOM 702.

MARVELOUS. IT'S ONE OF OURS.

SHE SHOULD BE ELIMINATED.

JUST DELAY, GEORGE. SEVENTY-TWO HOURS. JUST DELAY, GEORGE!

SEVENTY-TWO HOURS.

VIOLENCE AND MAYHEM, THAT'S SO GAUCHE.

HE CAN HOLD HER IN HER ROOM.

IF HE'S ABLE TO.

[ Sighs ]

I DON'T AGREE WITH YOU, MR. SMITH.

THIS ISN'T A DEMOCRACY, GEORGE.

WE DON'T TAKE A VOTE HERE.

YOU'RE THE BOSS. YES, GEORGE.

I AM.

JOEY, WELCOME THE LADY.

POLITELY.

THANK YOU, BUT... [ Speaking In French ] TRES BIEN.

[ Creaking ]

[ Grunts ]

[ Phone Ringing ]

[ Ringing Continues ]

HELLO? - MY NAME IS GEORGE CALVIN.

NOW, YOU DON'T KNOW ME, BUT YOU JUST PASSED ME IN THE LOBBY.

YOU ARE THE MOST BEAUTIFUL WOMAN I'VE EVER SEEN IN MY LIFE,

AND IF YOU DON'T HAVE DINNER WITH ME TONIGHT,

I'M JUST GOING TO HAVE TO THROW MYSELF FROM THE TOP OF THIS BUILDING.

AND MAYBE I CAN HELP YOU FIND WHAT YOU CAME TO CAP d'ANTIBES FOR.

WELL, THEN, HOW CAN I REFUSE?

HOW ABOUT 8:00? - IN THE LOBBY.

IN THE LOBBY.

I SERIOUSLY DOUBT YOU'LL HAVE THE SUCCESS YOU THINK YOU WILL, GEORGE.

YACHT SAILS LIKE CLOUDS. YOU NEED AN ANGEL.

NEVER, GEORGE, NEVER.

TEN THOUSAND SAYS YOU'RE WRONG. - YOU GOT A BET.

YOU'RE ON.

I THINK YOU'LL FIND CAP d'ANTIBES...

A VERY EXCITING CITY.

OH, IT IS.

SO FAR, A GENTLEMAN HAS DROPPED IN ON ME FROM THE ROOF OF THE ELEVATOR.

MY ROOM IS BUGGED. THEN YOU DIDN'T GET THE ROOM WITH THE TRAP DOOR?

THEY NEVER BUG THAT ROOM. WELL, NOW, THAT'S A RELIEF, GEORGE.

AND, UH, THEN YOU CALLED ME.

WHY? TO INVITE YOU SAILING.

ON MR. SMITH'S YACHT?

I WAS OUT THIS MORNING.

IT WAS WARM.

THERE WAS A WIND.

THE SAILS LOOKED LIKE CLOUDS.

ALL THAT WAS MISSING...

WAS AN ANGEL TO MAKE IT PERFECT.

COME SAILING WITH ME TOMORROW.

MAY I BRING YOU AN APERITIF, UH, MONSIEUR? CHAMPAGNE?

I'D RATHER A GLASS OF HERMITAGE BLANC, IF YOU DON'T MIND.

A BOTTLE OF YOUR VERY BEST HERMITAGE BLANC.

ICE THE GLASSES. [ Waiter ] VERY GOOD, MONSIEUR.

I DON'T KNOW THAT WINE. - IT'S AN INEXPENSIVE RHONE WINE,

BUT IT HAS ITS OWN STYLE.

YOU DESERVE CHAMPAGNE. - [ Chuckles ] EVEN IF I DON'T LIKE IT?

THERE ARE SOME THINGS IN THIS WORLD...

WORTH LEARNING TO LIKE.

VOILA. MERCI.

TO THIS NIGHT.

YOU ARE SO TOTALLY CAPTIVATING.

LET ME MAKE LOVE TO YOU. - WHY?

BECAUSE YOUR EYES REACH INTO MY... - YOU MISUNDERSTOOD ME.

I DIDN'T MEAN WHY SHOULD YOU WANT TO. I MEANT WHY SHOULD I?

DON'T YOU FIND ME... ATTRACTIVE, APPEALING?

YES. BUT THERE ARE QUITE A FEW ATTRACTIVE AND APPEALING MEN IN THIS WORLD.

I DON'T CARE ABOUT THE OTHERS.

OH, GEORGE. YOU DON'T?

YOU'RE FAST.

I LIKE YOU. - THANK YOU.

NOW, IF YOU'LL EXCUSE ME. THERE'S NO REASON TO RUN AWAY.

OH, I KNOW THAT, GEORGE.

GOOD NIGHT.

SPECIAL LINE "A," 12-6-7 TO THE UNITED STATES, OPERATOR.

MERCI. MR. STEVE TREVOR.

[ Rings ] TREVOR.

YOU SOUND TIRED, STEVE. - THIS HAS BEEN A TOUGH ONE,

BUT YOU DID PICK THE RIGHT DENTIST... THE FRENCHMAN.

THE ENGLISH DENTIST IS IN A HOSPITAL IN BELGRADE...

AND THE OTHER ONE IS ON A LONG VACATION IN CHINA.

HOW'S IT GOING? - SOMEWHAT INVOLVED, BUT I'M MAKING PROGRESS.

YOU WANT ME TO SEND YOU SOME COMPANY FOR MORAL SUPPORT?

NO, EVERYTHING'S FINE. - WE ALL MISS YOU, D.

WE DID HEAR ABOUT THE DELIVERY WE HAVE TO MAKE.

A MESSENGER WILL BE HERE TO PICK IT UP.

WILL YOU TELL ME WHO THE MESSENGER... [ Tires Screeching ]

[ Electronic Clicking ]

[ People Chattering ] ♪ [ Instrumental ]

[ Woman ] NO! NO!

[ Laughter ] [ Water Splashing ]

♪ [ Stops ]

[ Phone Rings ]

HELLO? WE HAVEN'T MET,

AND I-I REALLY HATE TO HAVE A GUEST AT ONE OF MY PARTIES...

THAT, UH, I HAVEN'T WELCOMED PERSONALLY.

THEN YOU WEREN'T IN YOUR CAR WHEN IT ATTEMPTED TO RUN ME DOWN EARLIER?

I WAS TOTALLY UNAWARE OF ANYTHING LIKE THAT HAPPENING.

I'LL DISCUSS IT WITH GEORGE. I PROMISE.

NOW, TO MORE PLEASANT THINGS.

IF YOU'D LIKE TO SWIM, YOU'LL FIND BATHING ATTIRE IN THE CABANA.

WELL, THAT'S VERY KIND OF YOU, BUT I ONLY CAME BY...

TO RESCUE THE BOOKS YOU BORROWED.

YOU HAVE MY WORD OF HONOR, MY WORD OF HONOR,

THAT THEY WILL BE RETURNED THE MOMENT I HAVE THE PROPER RESPONSE...

FROM YOUR, UH, MR. TREVOR.

I FIND IT VERY DIFFICULT TO ACCEPT YOUR WORD OF HONOR...

WITH 39 LIVES AT STAKE, MR. SMITH.

AH, YOU DO KNOW WHO I AM, HUH? I WAS WONDERING IF YOU DID.

BUT NOT REALLY SERIOUSLY. I WAS RELATIVELY CERTAIN YOU KNEW.

ABOUT THOSE LIVES, MR. SMITH,

THOSE AGENTS YOU PLACED IN JEOPARDY.

I HAVEN'T, REALLY. MR. TREVOR WILL PAY THE RANSOM,

I'LL RETURN THE BOOKS, AND THE AGENTS WILL REMAIN UNDERCOVER, SECRET AND SAFE.

GIVEN ANY CHOICE, I'D SPEND THE REST OF THE EVENING TALKING WITH YOU,

BUT I REALLY MUST GO NOW.

ENJOY YOUR STAY IN FRANCE, HMM?

[ Engine Starts ]

[ Crackling ]

[ Crackling Continues ]

[ Crackling Stops ]

VOILA, MADEMOISELLE. THANK YOU.

SHE'S ON HER WAY UP.

AH, MY DEAR. WHAT BRINGS YOU TO MY DOOR AT THIS HOUR?

LONELINESS, I HOPE. MY KEY. I LOCKED MY KEY IN MY ROOM.

PITY. WON'T YOU COME IN AND TELL ME ALL ABOUT IT?

MIGHT I IMPOSE ON YOU TO... OH, NO IMPOSITION AT ALL. MY PLEASURE.

COME IN, COME IN. WOULD YOU MIND...

CALLING MY ROOM AND WAKING UP MY HUSBAND?

HE'S A VERY SOUND SLEEPER, AND, UH, HE DOESN'T HEAR ME KNOCKING.

OH. OH, YES, YES, OF COURSE, YOUR HUSBAND. WHAT ROOM MIGHT THAT BE?

702. WE'RE JUST ACROSS THE HALL.

CERTAINLY. I'LL CALL HIM STRAIGHT AWAY.

[ Picks Up Receiver, Dials Numbers ]

[ Phone Ringing ]

YOU'RE NOT SURPRISED. I WANTED TO SURPRISE YOU.

NOW, WHY WEREN'T YOU SURPRISED?

I TAKE IT THE, UH, TRUNK IS FOR ME.

HAD TO GUESS YOUR DIMENSIONS, BUT, UH, I THINK YOU'LL FIT.

NOW, MY FRIENDS ARE GOING TO TAKE YOU SAILING FOR A FEW DAYS.

ANYPLACE YOU CHOOSE.

WHETHER I LIKE IT OR NOT. - OH, I THINK YOU'LL LEARN TO LIKE IT.

IN CASE IT'S NOT CLEAR TO YOU, LET ME MAKE IT CLEAR.

ABNER'S CONVINCED YOUR LIFE IS NECESSARY. I'M NOT.

I NEVER WOULD HAVE GUESSED IT, GEORGE.

SO DON'T FORCE US TO DAMAGE YOU BEFORE WE PUT YOU IN THE TRUNK. HE WOULDN'T LIKE THAT.

AND SINCE HE'S STILL THE BOSS, I'D HATE TO HAVE TO EXPLAIN IT TO HIM.

I JUST CAN'T LET YOU PUT ME IN THAT TRUNK, GEORGE.

[ Chuckles ] I THOUGHT YOU COULDN'T.

[ Grunts ]

[ Grunts ]

[ Grunts ]

[ Woman Over Loudspeaker ] FLIGHT 973 FROM LOS ANGELES NOW ARRIVING AT GATE FOUR.

SHE'S HERE NOW, WAITING FOR YOU. - THAT'S IMPOSSIBLE.

WE HAD AN HOUR LEAD ON HER.

I'M STANDING HERE LOOKING AT HER. IT'S THAT WOMAN.

TELL HIM WE LEAVE THE AIRPORT BY A DIFFERENT ROUTE.

AND TELL HIM TO HAVE THE MESSENGER SENT TO STEVE TREVOR.

PURSUANT TO YOUR INSTRUCTIONS, OUR LAB PEOPLE CHECKED IT OUT BY EVERY METHOD.

EXCEPT PROBING AND X-RAYS.

MY GUESS IS IT'S NOT A BOMB. - THOSE INSTRUCTIONS CAME FROM THE THIEF.

AND I'M TO BE ALONE WHEN I OPEN IT.

COULD BE THERE'S AN ASSASSIN IN THERE, STEVE. SOUND TEST PICKED UP...

A HEARTBEAT OR SOMETHING LIKE IT.

I HAVE NO CHOICE BUT TO FOLLOW THEIR INSTRUCTIONS, COLONEL.

IT'S A NECESSARY RISK.

ALL RIGHT.

BE CAREFUL, STEVE. THANKS, MORRIS.

[ Braying ]

IT'S DONE AND SHE'S IN HER ROOM.

[ Ringing ]

HELLO? - THIS IS GEORGE. I JUST GOT IN.

UNDER THE CIRCUMSTANCES, I DIDN'T THINK YOU'D BE SAILING THE MEDITERRANEAN.

OH, NO. WHERE YOU GO, I GO.

I'M SURE YOU DIDN'T CALL TO CHAT, GEORGE.

I CALLED TO INVITE YOU TO LUNCH.

SOMEPLACE VERY PUBLIC, I IMAGINE?

WELL, UH, WHAT COULD BE MORE PUBLIC...

THAN THE GOVERNOR'S GRILL AT THE PEREGRINE?

WHY, GEORGE? - I'VE BEEN TOLD TO MAKE YOU A PROPOSITION.

BUSINESS, OF COURSE. - HOW ABOUT 12:30?

FINE. SHALL I PICK YOU UP? I BROUGHT YOUR TRUNK.

THAT'S VERY THOUGHTFUL, GEORGE, BUT I'D JUST AS SOON MEET YOU THERE.

TRY NOT TO BE LATE.

THIS IS ROOM 519.

SEND UP A CONTAINER OF MILK AND A SAUCER.

AND TELL THE WAITER TO LET HIMSELF INTO THE ROOM,

BUT TO TAKE HIS SHOES OFF IN THE HALL FIRST.

YES, THAT'S WHAT I SAID.

AND TELL HIM THERE'S A $50 TIP IF HE GETS HERE IN THE NEXT MINUTE.

STAY RIGHT THERE.

NOW POUR SOME MILK IN THE SAUCER.

THEN WALK SLOWLY OVER HERE AND PUT IT DOWN ON THE FLOOR.

BUT LADY... DON'T TALK.

JUST PUT THE MILK DOWN AND SLIDE IT AS CLOSE TO ME AS YOU CAN.

[ Hisses ]

[ Sighs ]

OH, I'M SORRY. I ALMOST FORGOT YOUR TIP.

HOW CAN YOU STAND UP AFTER THAT?

WOULD HAVE BEEN A LOT TOUGHER IF THE SNAKE HAD BITTEN ME.

YEAH.

SHE'S LATE.

UH, YOU DIDN'T HAPPEN TO ARRANGE SOMETHING...

THAT WOULD PREVENT HER FROM COMING HERE, DID YOU, GEORGE?

[ Scoffs ] DO YOU THINK I'D DO ANYTHING CONTRARY TO YOUR ORDERS?

I MISJUDGED YOU, GEORGE.

SHE IS BEING SEATED AT YOUR TABLE.

DID YOU ORDER A DRINK?

I PREFER NOT TO DRINK AT LUNCH, THANK YOU.

YOU KNOW,

I'LL SPEND THE REST OF MY LIFE WISHING I'D MET YOU UNDER OTHER CIRCUMSTANCES.

GEORGE, I SERIOUSLY DOUBT THAT ANY WOMAN...

COULD SURVIVE IN YOUR MEMORY LONGER THAN A FEW DAYS.

[ Chuckles ] SO DO I.

BUT THAT LINE USUALLY HAS A VERY DISARMING EFFECT.

LET'S STOP FENCING AND GET DOWN TO BUSINESS.

I'M EMPOWERED TO OFFER YOU $1 MILLION...

TO FORM A PROFESSIONAL ALLIANCE WITH MY EMPLOYER.

WELL, THAT'S VERY IMPRESSIVE, BUT NO THANKS.

[ George ] TWO MILLION DOLLARS? LET'S JUST NOT HAGGLE.

WHAT'S YOUR TOP OFFER?

FIVE MILLION. NOW, EVEN YOU...

COULD FIND A LOT TO BUY WITH $5 MILLION.

I HAVE EVERYTHING I WANT.

EXCEPT FOR THE BOOKS AND FOR THE SAFETY OF THOSE 39 AGENTS.

THAT'S YOUR FINAL WORD? - FINAL.

YOU'VE HEARD ABNER'S OFFER. YOU HAVEN'T HEARD MINE.

I THINK I KNOW WHAT YOURS IS, GEORGE.

I WON'T UNDERESTIMATE YOU AGAIN.

AND I WON'T ASK FOR ABNER'S APPROVAL.

IF YOU TURN UP AGAIN, I'LL KILL YOU.

NOW, YOU SEE, I KNEW WHAT YOUR OFFER WOULD BE.

DO ENJOY YOUR PRESENT, GEORGE.

YES, OF COURSE I'M CALLING FROM A PUBLIC TELEPHONE BOOTH.

YOU'RE NOT WHERE SOMEONE CAN GET AT YOU WITH A CAR?

STEVE, I'M PERFECTLY SAFE.

NOW, YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO PUT THE MONEY WHERE?

TWO LEATHER SADDLEBAGS, THEN TAKE THE ANIMAL TO A PLACE IN NEVADA...

A GHOST TOWN NAMED ALBA... AT 4:00 THIS AFTERNOON.

AND THAT'S ALL? - GIVE THE BURRO A COMMAND IN SPANISH,

SLAP IT ON THE RUMP AND LEAVE.

[ Chuckles ] WELL, DON'T STAND BEHIND THE BURRO...

WHEN YOU GIVE HIM A SWAT.

[ Chuckling ] PHONE IN THIS EVENING?

IF I HAVE ANYTHING TO TELL YOU.

BYE.

[ Clang ] I BRING YOU LOVE FROM YOUR MOTHER, DIANA.

AND WHEN YOU RETURN TO THE ISLAND, GIVE HER MY LOVE.

I WILL.

MY MISSION IS TO BRING YOU A MESSAGE OF GREAT SADNESS, SISTER.

ONE FROM AMONG US HAS FLED THE ISLAND. WHICH OF US?

ANGELA.

AND SO YOUR MOTHER SPOKE, ACCORDING TO OUR JUST LAWS.

ANGELA IS NOT TO BE TRUSTED.

SHE MUST NOW FACE HER TIMES OF TRIAL ALONE.

SO BE IT, SISTER.

TO MY GREAT SADNESS. AND MINE.

[ Bracelets Clang ]

I'M DELIGHTED YOU DECIDED TO ACCEPT MY INVITATION...

TO JOIN IN THIS ENTERPRISE, ANGELA.

WELL, HOW COULD I REFUSE?

I'M CURIOUS AS TO WHEN MY PART IN IT BEGINS. NOW.

FIND GEORGE AND GO TO THE GLEN.

HE KNOWS WHERE IT IS.

ALL RIGHT.

JUST, UH, WHY DID YOU DECIDE TO PAY ME ALL THIS MONEY?

I'M SURE IT'S NOT TO KEEP GEORGE COMPANY IN SOME GLEN.

IN EVERY ILLEGAL OPERATION...

THERE IS A NEED FOR SOMEONE LIKE GEORGE, ANGELA,

SOMEONE WITH AN EGO SO LARGE THAT HE SUCCEEDS...

BECAUSE HE CAN'T REALLY LIVE WITH FAILURE.

BUT INEVITABLY, TWO THINGS OCCUR.

FIRST, HE DECIDES TO TAKE OVER AT SOME POINT.

AND SECOND, HE RUNS UP AGAINST A PROBLEM HE CAN'T REALLY HANDLE.

WHEN EITHER ONE OF THOSE SITUATIONS ARISES,

I WANT YOU THERE TO SET THINGS STRAIGHT.

I THINK I CAN MANAGE THAT. I'M SURE YOU CAN,

IF YOU DON'T FORGET THAT GEORGE IS BOTH HEARTLESS...

AND HAS A CLEVER... A GROTESQUE TURN OF MIND.

NOT TO WORRY, MR. SMITH.

THE ANIMAL'S BEEN SPRAYED WITH A NONTOXIC, HARMLESS ULTRAVIOLET FLUID.

THIS'LL ENABLE YOU TO TRACK IT EASILY FROM THE AIR...

WITH THE AID OF SPECIAL LIGHTING.

IT'S ALREADY INSTALLED ON THE HELICOPTERS. DAY OR NIGHT,

SHINE THE LIGHT ON HIM, AND HE'LL LIGHT UP LIKE A CHRISTMAS TREE.

GOOD. WHAT ABOUT ELECTRONIC TRACKING? OH, YES.

WE HAVE MICROTRANSMITTERS BETWEEN THE HOOF AND THE SHOE. FOUR OF THEM IN ALL.

AND THERE'S NO WAY FOUR HOOF TRANSMITTERS ARE GOING TO GO ON THE FRITZ.

ONE, MAYBE TWO, BUT NOT ALL FOUR. FINE.

THAT'S A STRANGE KIND OF MESSENGER, DON'T YOU THINK, STEVE?

OH, I THOUGHT SO, UNTIL I SAW THE TOPOGRAPHICAL MAP...

OF THE AREA AROUND ALBA, NEVADA.

THAT BURRO'S A PERFECT CHOICE.

HERE'S THE RANSOM, STEVE.

I REALLY WISH YOU'D LET US MARK THAT CASH, STEVE.

HE'S TOO CLEVER NOT TO GIVE IT A THOROUGH EXAMINATION WHEN HE GETS IT.

NO, IF HE FINDS SOME WAY TO GET HIS HANDS ON THE MONEY...

WITHOUT US BEING RIGHT BEHIND IT AND DISCOVERS THE MONEY IS MARKED,

HE'LL SELL THE LISTS AND THE CODES TO OUR ADVERSARIES.

THAT MEANS 39 DEAD OR IMPRISONED AGENTS. IT'S TOO BIG A RISK.

YOU WERE TIED UP IN CONFERENCE,

SO I AUTHORIZED THE BAGS TO BE FITTED WITH TEAR GAS ELEMENTS.

MAYBE WE SHOULD REMOVE THEM. - NO. NO DEPARTURE FROM ROUTINE.

I'M SURE ABNER SMITH KNOWS OUR PROCEDURE ALMOST AS WELL AS WE DO.

HOW DO THEY ACTIVATE? - USUAL WAY... SHARP BLOW IN EITHER BAG.

ROUTINE.

[ Wind Howling ]

[ Vehicle Approaching ]

I THINK WE'RE BEING WATCHED.

[ Lift Whirring ]

[ Speaking Spanish ]

ALL RIGHT. LET'S GET OUT OF HERE.

[ Engine Starts ]

[ Grunts ]

[ Beeping ]

THE HOOF TRANSMITTERS ON THE BURRO ARE ALL GO, STEVE. - GOOD.

WHAT NOW? WAIT.

[ Mechanical Whirring ]

[ Electricity Crackling, Whirring Intensifies ]

[ Whirring, Crackling Continue ]

[ Beeping Continues ]

[ Beeping Stops ]

SOMETHING'S GOING WRONG, STEVE.

WE'RE NOT GETTING ANY SIGNALS FROM THE HOOF TRANSMITTERS.

WE BETTER GET 'COPTERS IN HERE TO MAKE VISUAL CONTACT.

NO NEED.

THAT CONTINGENCY'S ALREADY TAKEN CARE OF.

[ Engine Starts ]

[ Whirring Resumes ] - [ Electrical Crackling Resumes ]

[ Whirring, Crackling Stops ]

[ Liquid Sloshing ]

[ Steam Hissing ]

WHY DON'T WE JUST PICK A COMFORTABLE SPOT...

WHERE WE CAN WAIT FOR THE BURRO... AND RELAX?

GEORGE, YOU DON'T WANT TO RELAX.

[ Chuckles ] NOW, WHY WOULD YOU SAY THAT?

PICK A TARGET.

YOU PICK IT.

THAT STUMP OVER THERE.

HOW MUCH? NAME YOUR OWN PRICE.

FOR HITTING THAT STUMP, GEORGE.

OH. FIFTY.

YOU'RE ON.

ALL RIGHT.

NOW HIT THE JAVELIN YOU JUST THREW.

DOUBLE OR NOTHING. YOU'RE ON.

THAT BURRO SHOULD BE HERE ANYTIME NOW.

[ Grunts ]

[ Hoofbeats Approaching ] THERE IT IS.

THERE'S SOMEONE RIDING IT.

I'VE GOT FIVE BIG ONES SAYS YOU CAN'T TAKE HER OFF FROM HERE.

THIS ISN'T THE WAY I EXPECTED TO SEE YOU AGAIN, ANGELA.

WHAT OTHER WAY COULD THERE BE NOW, DIANA?

MUST WE MAKE WAR AGAINST EACH OTHER?

WE HAVE NO CHOICE.

WE BOTH KNOW YOUR GOAL...

AND MINE.

THE LAST TIME WE WERE IN CONTEST TOGETHER, THERE WAS NO VICTOR.

I REMEMBER.

[ Groans ]

[ Gun Cocks, Fires Shot ]

GEORGE, TAKE THE BURRO AND LEAVE.

AND I ADVISE YOU TO DO AS YOU WERE INSTRUCTED.

THIS IS BEAUTIFUL.

[ Javelins Clacking ]

YOU WOULD NOT TAKE MY LIFE.

I DIDN'T SAVE YOUR LIFE ON THE ISLAND TO TAKE IT NOW.

WOULD YOU ALLOW ME TO REPLACE MY WEAPON?

NO, ANGELA.

NO MORE FIGHTING BETWEEN US.

HOLD NO HOPE THAT I SHALL EVER RETURN TO THE ISLAND. I'VE MADE MY CHOICE.

I WANT THE THINGS THIS WORLD HAS TO OFFER.

WE WERE SO MUCH ALIKE. - NEVER!

THEN OUR SISTERHOOD ENDS HERE.

NOT UNTIL I REPAY MY DEBT.

I OWE YOU MY LIFE. SET YOUR PRICE.

I'LL PAY IT. THAT WAS IN OUR CHILDHOOD.

I WON'T BE INDEBTED TO YOU, DIANA. SET YOUR PRICE.

[ Helicopter Approaching ]

WHERE IS HE TAKING THE MONEY?

TO THE MUSHROOM-SHAPED ROCK ON THE NORTH RIM OF THE GREAT CANYON.

YOUR DEBT IS PAID.

OH, TELL MR. SMITH... I WILL EXPLAIN.

YOU KNOW AS WELL AS I DO THAT WE WILL FACE EACH OTHER AGAIN.

AND IF I WIN,

I WILL TAKE YOUR LIFE.

[ Footsteps Approaching ]

[ Switch Clicks ]

WHERE IS ANGELA, GEORGE? STILL AT THE GLEN.

GUESS WHO TURNED UP RIDING THE BURRO.

[ Laughs ] SHE DOES HAVE A STYLE...

A STYLE ALL HER OWN.

OPEN THE POUCHES, GEORGE.

[ Panting ]

SHALL I CHECK IT FOR MARKINGS?

TREVOR WOULDN'T RISK MARKING IT.

AND TWO MILLION OF IT'S MINE. [ Chuckles ]

WOULD YOU LIKE IT TO BE THREE MILLION, GEORGE? MMM?

I'LL MAKE YOU A WAGER FOR A MILLION.

WHAT IS IT?

THAT SHE FOLLOWED YOU HERE.

[ Chuckles ] SHE COULDN'T.

EVEN IF ANGELA LOST THE FIGHT AND TOLD HER WHERE TO COME, SHE'S ON FOOT.

WELL, THEN YOU CAN'T LOSE.

I DON'T THINK SO.

[ Footsteps Approaching ]

[ Gun Cocks ]

YOU JUST COST ME ONE MILLION DOLLARS.

YOU'RE GOING TO REGRET IT.

I GUESS OUR HONEYMOON IS OVER, GEORGE. [ Chuckles ]

YOU WON THE BET.

I'VE LOOKED FORWARD TO MEETING YOU FOR A VERY LONG TIME.

AS I'VE LOOKED FORWARD TO MEETING YOU, MR. SMITH.

YOU ARE EXACTLY AS I PICTURED YOU.

EXACTLY.

YOU'RE TALLER THAN I EXPECTED.

ANGELA ASKED ME TO EXTEND HER APOLOGIES.

I'M SURE SHE DID HER BEST TO GET HERE.

YOU'VE HAD A VERY LONG AND DRY TRIP.

OH. FOR YOUR PEACE OF MIND.

THANK YOU.

WE HAVE TO KILL HER.

OH, I CERTAINLY HOPE NOT, GEORGE.

[ George ] SHE'S NOT GOING TO JUST LET US WALK AWAY WITH THAT MONEY.

SHE MIGHT. - AND WHAT IF SHE DOESN'T?

THERE IS TIME TO DECIDE THAT THEN, ISN'T THERE?

NOT IF SHE'S TOLD STEVE TREVOR WHERE SHE IS.

IF YOU TOOK THE TIME TO STUDY YOUR ADVERSARIES, YOU'D KNOW SHE DIDN'T,

AND YOU'D PROBABLY BE IN BUSINESS FOR YOURSELF INSTEAD OF WORKING FOR ME.

NOW, WILL YOU SEE THAT THE 'COPTER IS FUELED, GEORGE?

YOU'VE FOUND WHAT HAS TO BE THE MOST UNLIKELY PLACE TO LIVE...

IN THE ENTIRE COUNTRY, MR. SMITH... [ Chuckles ]

INSIDE THE NORTH WALL OF THE GRAND CANYON.

[ Mr. Smith ] I WOULD THANK YOU, BUT I HAD NOTHING TO DO...

WITH MAKING IT WHAT IT IS. [ Both Chuckle ]

I'M SURE YOU REALIZE THAT WE HAVE SOMETHING OF A PROBLEM TO SOLVE.

YES, A PROBLEM. BEFORE WE CONFRONT THAT,

WILL YOU ANSWER A QUESTION FOR ME?

IF I CAN. THAT BURRO...

WE, UH, SCRUBBED OFF THE ULTRAVIOLET SPRAY,

DEACTIVATED THE SIGNAL TRANSMITTERS,

VISUALLY CONFUSED IT WITH THREE OTHER IDENTICAL...

IDENTICAL BURROS, AND YOU STILL FOLLOWED IT.

HOW? - TRACKS, MR. SMITH.

YOU SEE, HOOFPRINTS ARE ALMOST AS DISTINCTIVE AS FINGERPRINTS.

THE MOST BASIC AND SIMPLE FACTORS ARE THE ONES WE OVERLOOK.

TRACKS, OF COURSE! TRACKS!

UH... I HAVE ANOTHER QUESTION.

DO YOU MIND? THAT DEPENDS ON THE QUESTION.

I LEFT CAP D' ANTIBES A FULL HOUR OR MORE BEFORE YOU COULD HAVE,

AND YOU WERE IN NEW YORK WELL AHEAD OF ME.

HOW? I HAVE THIS MARVELOUS PLANE...

THAT FLIES THMUCH FASTER THAN YOURS.

I'D LIKE TO SEE IT SOMETIME.

I'M AFRAID THAT'S JUST NOT POSSIBLE.

EVEN IF I GIVE YOU MY WORD I'D MAKE NO ATTEMPT TO STEAL IT?

IT'S NOT THAT. YOU SEE, MY PLANE IS INVISIBLE.

AH! AND YOU ARE INVISIBLE WHEN YOU FLY IT.

[ Together ] OF COURSE. [ Chuckles ]

CONVENIENT.

NOW, LET'S GET BACK TO OUR PROBLEM.

NOW,

WE HAVE 15 MILLION DOLLARS IN THESE POUCHES,

AND I HAVE TEN BOOKS WHICH, SINCE THE RANSOM IS PAID,

I INTEND TO RETURN TO YOUR GOVERNMENT.

THAT SHOULD ASSURE YOUR MIND THAT YOUR AGENTS WILL BE SAFE.

OH, THE BOOKS ARE IN THIS LEATHER CASE.

NOW, I PROPOSE TO LEAVE HERE WITH THE MONEY BY HELICOPTER,

LEAVING THE BOOKS WITH YOU.

THAT SEEMS FAIR.

IF THIS WAS A NORMAL BUSINESS TRANSACTION, MR. SMITH, IT WOULD BE.

BUT YOU DON'T THINK IT IS.

YOU VIOLATED THE LAW.

AND THERE IS THE BASIC MORALITY OF RIGHT AND WRONG.

TO WHICH YOU ADHERE.

TO WHICH I'VE DEDICATED MY LIFE, MR. SMITH.

ABNER. OH, PLEASE.

ABNER.

CONSIDER... THERE IS NO WAY FOR YOU TO LEAVE HERE.

NO WAY FOR YOU TO STOP ME FROM LEAVING.

COMMON SENSE WOULD SEEM TO INDICATE...

THAT YOU REEVALUATE YOUR POSITION.

MMM. MAY I SHOW YOU AROUND?

I'D LIKE THAT.

GOOD. THIS WAY, PLEASE.

[ Machinery Chugging ]

THE ELEVATOR SYSTEM WAS THE MOST DIFFICULT ENGINEERING JOB.

I STOLE THE PLANS FOR IT FROM THE STRATEGIC AIR COMMAND.

BRILLIANT PEOPLE THERE.

I'LL TELL THEM THAT YOU APPRECIATE THEIR TALENTS.

I HOPE YOU'LL HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY.

MAY I LOOK?

IF YOU GIVE ME YOUR WORD...

YOUR WORD... THAT YOU WON'T TRY TO SABOTAGE IT.

I'LL HAVE TO PASS. [ Chuckles ]

AH.

UM...

HAVE YOU READ ALL THESE BOOKS?

SOMETHING MORE THAN HALF.

AND THIS IS WHERE YOU PLANNED THE ROBBERIES?

THAT IS A VERY INTERESTING STORY.

UM, I WAS IN LISBON,

WHERE I BOUGHT SOME INFORMATION ON SOMETHING OR ANOTHER.

YOU WERE WEARING TWO BRACELETS WHEN YOU ARRIVED.

NOW THERE IS ONLY ONE.

WHERE IS THE OTHER?

[ Explosion ]

[ Grunts ]

NOW PUT THOSE SADDLEBAGS...

AND THAT BOX ON THE FLOOR.

GET 'EM, JOEY.

NO, LEAVE THAT. WHY? WE CAN SELL THEM AGAIN!

BECAUSE WE MADE A DEAL, GEORGE,

AND OUR WORD HAS TO BE GOOD.

WHY THE GUN, GEORGE?

[ George ] WE'VE GOT TO KILL HER!

[ Abner ] NO, NO, NO, NO, NO.

KILLING PEOPLE MAKES OTHER PEOPLE MUCH MORE ANGRY THAN THEY EVER GET OVER MONEY.

MAKES THEM DOGGED. WE DON'T NEED THAT.

AND WE MAY WANT TO DO BUSINESS WITH THEM AGAIN.

I SINCERELY WISH WE MIGHT HAVE SPENT MORE TIME TOGETHER.

[ Door Closes ]

WELL, IT'S BEEN A PLEASURE DOING BUSINESS WITH YOU.

I LOOK FORWARD TO OUR NEXT ENTERPRISE TOGETHER.

I TAKE IT YOU ARE TO BE THE ONE WHO SEES TO THE BURRO.

YES, SIR. MMM.

THE PEOPLE YOU ARE LEAVING IT WITH HAVE CHILDREN?

FOUR. OH, THAT'S FINE. THAT'S FINE.

PERHAPS YOU'D BETTER START OUT NOW.

YOU'LL SEE TO PAYING CASS AND JOE AND THE OTHERS, GEORGE, AND THEN JOIN ME, ALL RIGHT?

RIGHT. - THANK YOU AGAIN.

WELL, WHAT ABOUT A PARTING DRINK?

NO THANKS, GEORGE.

WE WERE THERE THE LAST TIME YOU OFFERED ANYBODY A "PARTING DRINK."

[ Gun Cocks ]

WHY, GEORGE?

THE MONEY. [ Two Gunshots ]

[ Bodies Fall To Floor ]

SALUD.

AHH!

YOU WANT ALL THE MONEY, GEORGE, HUH?

FIFTEEN MILLION DOLLARS, MR. SMITH. WHY NOT?

JUST GIVE ME THE SADDLEBAGS.

YOU'LL FIND A WAY TO BE BROKE IN A YEAR, GEORGE.

AHHH! [ Coughing ]

[ Coughing Continues ]

AHH! [ Gasps ]

I CAN'T SWIM! [ Yells ]

HEY! I CAN'T SWIM!

REALLY, GEORGE? OH, I AM SO SORRY.

[ Engine Starts ]

[ Water Splashes ]

[ Chuckles ] YOU CAME CLOSE, ABNER.

I NEED A LIGHT.

THANK YOU.

YOU'RE WELCOME.

LET'S GO, BUDDY.

WONDER WOMAN, I LOVE YOU.

[ Car Door Closes, Engine Starts ]

WE'VE GOT TO LAYOUT THE QUARTERLY PERSONNEL EVALUATIONS.

AND DON'T FORGET TO CALL THE MAINTENANCE ABOUT THE AIR CONDITIONER.

OH, AND YOU'VE GOT A CONFERENCE AT 11:00... HEADS OF DEPARTMENTS.

RIGHT. SEE IF WE CAN MOVE THAT TO ANOTHER DAY. THAT'S EVERYTHING.

ALL RIGHT. LET'S START WITH THE CALL TO LONDON. YES, SIR.

OH, D, YOU DIDN'T TELL ME.

WHEN YOU FINALLY CAUGHT UP WITH HIM,

HOW WAS THE BOUT WITH YOUR DENTIST?

PAINFUL.

A LITTLE.
