He's moving. Fast.

Yeah, too fast.

He's airborne. He's in a plane.

What the devil's happening?

Try and keep contact.

Trade on.

Now, you keep her steady on 147, Rule.

That'll take you right back to the aerodrome.

Well, this is where I leave you.

You made one mistake, Foster.

I'm no pilot. I can't fly this plane.

You don't get off that easy.

You'll fly this plane.

You'll land at the airstrip and you'll live, Rule.

You'll live long enough to spend 25 years in prison.

25 years.

Now listen carefully.

We have you on the radar.

You're about six miles from the airfield. What is your altitude?

Just over 4 ,000 feet.

Good. Now you're going to have to circle around for about one hour to use up

your fuel.

Hello, Harry? Right.

Harry, I want you to make a 90 -degree turn to the left.

I'm not sure of the rudder controls.

Forget the rudder.

Just use the control column.

Turn it to the left on a compass heading of 230.

I'm afraid Mr. Rumi isn't back yet. Well, I am a little bit early. I drove

from the country. You know, you can never tell the traffic and everything.

Are you sure it's all right if I wait?

Please. Oh, thank you.

Would you like to have some drink or some coffee? I would

love a cup of coffee. Okay.

This is a very interesting apartment.

You like?

Oh, yes.

Black or white, Mr. Foster?

White, please.

Does this clock still work?

Oh, yes.

Foster?

Yes, nice to see you. How are you? Fine. I was just commenting on your

apartment. Yeah, adequate.

Hi.

You made it sound quite urgent. Yes, I wanted to get your opinion on something.

My opinion? Thank you. On what?

On a 25 -year prison sentence.

What do you mean?

I wanted to know how you'd feel spending the rest of your life in prison.

What are you talking about? Well, that's the way it's going to be when you kill

me. Why do I want to kill you?

Of course, I'm blackmailing you.

Blackmailing? Yes, you see, I know that you killed a certain Harry

Fowle.

Now, come on, don't deny you knew him.

Yeah, I know him. And you killed him.

And you're going to kill me.

And you're going to rot in a cell, in a prison cell.

Reading just under half.

Good. Now, you're doing just fine, Harry.

Now, I want you to make another turn to the left. This time, onto 360.

You know a guy named Harry Farr?

Harry Farr?

Oh, yes, he's a small -time thief, police informant. Why do you ask?

Somebody mentioned his name. A client?

A nut.

Try signalling next time.

Where are we meeting Paul?

At the firing range.

I think you should have a handicap.

A blindfold.

Why not? Maybe you'll lose just once.

All right, let's make it more difficult. Backs to the target and cut the time to

five seconds. All right, I'll go first.

Change your luck.

You trace the call.

What's the name?

Foster.

Foster.

Have your dress.

Right.

Thank you.

Well, our paths cross again.

Look, you don't like me and I don't particularly care for you, so let's just

on with it.

I've read your statement.

There are just one or two points.

Figured there might be.

You, uh, visit the shooting range regularly?

Wednesdays when I'm free.

And you had no idea, of course, that Farr was tied at the back of the target.

No, I had no idea.

But you did know him?

No.

Well, I heard about him, I didn't like.

And there are a great many people I, uh... You're not over -enamored with.

Look, if I wanted to kill Farr, do you think I'd pump him full of bullets in

front of witnesses?

No, no, no. I don't think you'd do that.

But then that's not the way he died.

He was killed about an hour before you shot him.

The police can't really believe you'd commit murder.

Well, they work with facts, and some of the facts point to me. Because Foster

pointed them that way. He's trying to frame you.

Harry, what did he say again?

He's blackmailing you because he has evidence that you killed Farr. And I'm

going to kill him.

He should be locked away. He's crazy.

No, pal. He's unbalanced, but he's intelligent and dangerous.

Hello?

Harry?

he like to meet me at the stroke of ten, as he put it.

Harry, you said yourself he was dangerous. I don't think you should go.

That's one reason why I should.

It'll give you and Paul a chance to search his room.

All right. Have you got his address?

From the inspector's desk.

What? I read well upside down.

I don't think much of his lifestyle.

We'll try over there.

Oh, hello.

I'm glad you could make it. Hey, look at that. You're on time as well.

Better be good.

Oh, well, it's a demand for 200 pounds.

Oh, you know, the first in a long line of payments.

Blackmail. Why, now, come on, now. You can't be surprised, because I did warn

you, didn't I?

Okay, I'll return the compliment.

I'm going to warn you. Oh, I know.

I know. Stay out of your hair. Get off my back, right? Any way you want to read

it. Just as long as the message is clear and understood.

Verstehen? Now, I can't sit around here chatting all day. I've got to get back

and see the results of the explosion.

Oh, you know the bomb?

The bomb you sent me through the post? It's going off at 10 a .m.

Here you go.

I wonder why he hasn't opened it.

Don't answer That

could

be Harry, you know

Yes, all right.

There's a phone there.

Stand by.

We've got an ambulance and a fire truck standing by.

Okay. The winds are veering westly.

The device was crudely constructed.

The lab estimates it contained about three pound of explosive.

The basis of the timing mechanism was some kind of clock.

Unfortunately, it seems unlikely we shall ever be able to identify this

establish its origin.

Do you know a man called Foster?

We've met. Yes.

The last time, just before ten o 'clock this morning, outside the tower.

Why is Foster blackmailing you?

Is he?

I can't think of any other reason why you'd give a comparative stranger 200

pounds.

I never gave him a penny.

At approximately 9 .40, you drew 200 pounds from your personal account.

Do you still say you didn't give Foster that money?

I never gave him a penny.

We searched your apartment.

We found this in your jacket pocket and several other similar demands for money

in your desk.

Oh, come on, Harry. You're not just going to sit there and take this, are

Listen, you have spoken to Foster, right?

The man is unbalanced. He is lying.

Lying? He denied it.

It's a criminal offence.

But then I'm under no obligation to believe him, either.

So what do you intend to do, Inspector?

I have a theory.

A little wild, unproved, but a few of the pieces fit.

You have got nothing, not one shred of evidence.

No, no.

It's only a theory as yet.

You're free to go, Mr. Rule.

But you will be required to surrender your passport.

Come on, let's get out of here.

Oh, there is just one other point, Contessa.

It occurs to me the bomb need not necessarily have been posted.

You could have planted it.

What is it, Paul? We estimate you should be able to land in another ten minutes.

Right.

It's madness, Harry. Don't go.

Foster's obviously unstable. He's capable of anything.

If you want to know why, meet me at Cranfield Aerodrome.

That's a trap, of course. Yeah, of course.

But why? What's his reason?

There's no question about it that he's devious enough to pull it off.

I don't want that jazz hanging around my neck. Yeah, so we're coming with you.

All right. At a distance.

How will we keep contact?

How is it the airfield now?

No loud and clear.

This is Golf Alpha Victor Uniform Lima.

Requesting taxi clearance.

Cranfield Control, you are cleared to taxi for runway 33.

Uniform Lima, this is Control.

You have a passenger.

Yes, I have a passenger. You'll need his name for the logbook.

It's Harry Rue.

Harry Rue.

That's right.

Uniform Lima. You are clear for takeoff.

I suppose you need an explanation.

I mean, that's the least I can do. Tell me, do you remember Saint -Tropez six

years ago?

Kidnapping.

French millionaire's daughter.

Yes. Two men.

One of them was you.

The other one, the one you shot, was my brother.

You killed him.

He was only 27.

I knelt at his grave and I swore I'd make you pay.

Your brother didn't have to die.

His wound turned septic because he chose a hideout instead of a hospital.

Now turn this plane around, Foster.

Stay on this road, Chino.

This is where I jump.

You're going to stand trial for murder.

My murder.

Reading practically empty.

Check. We're going to bring you in.

Turn left on a new heading.

Zero, two, seven.

Zero, two, seven.

Right. Now keep her on that heading.

Okay, Harry.

We've been over this enough times.

Let's see how well you remember.

Right.

Just follow instructions.

There's no need to acknowledge.

You're two miles from the runway.

What's your altitude?

1 ,500 feet.

Good. All right. Throttle back to 1 ,500 revs per minute.

Now remember, your airspeed is vital.

You must keep it steady at 90. Repeat, 9 -0 miles per hour.

That's good, Harry.

That's fine.

Just fine.

Hold it like that.

Good.

Now keep the nose on that center line.

That's fine.

You're one mile from touchdown.

Harry, you're too high.

Throttle back to 1 ,200 revs per minute.

Watch your airspeed.

Keep it at 90 miles per hour. I'm too fast, Paul. Just over 100.

Take it easy.

That's not bad for a beginner.

Had me worried there a couple of times.

Harry Rule, I arrest you for the murder of Colin Foster.

You're not obliged to say anything. I warn you, anything you do say will be

taken down and may be used in evidence.

You're making a mistake, Inspector.

Come along, Mr. Rule.

Hey, now, wait a minute. All right, Paul.

Hello, Harry.

Inspector?

Thanks for the lift, Inspector. I think I'll ride back with my friends. It's

getting a little cramped in here.

All right, Foster, come along.

Where did you find him?

On the end of a parachute.

I was expecting you.

Let's go home, Gino. Yes, sir.

In the avenues and alleyways where the soul of the man

is easy to find.
