You are Harry Rule?

Mm -hmm.

And you are?

This letter of authority from my embassy will introduce me as a person of

responsibility.

Doesn't mention your name. I regret that cannot be revealed at this time.

You're a very cautious man.

To hire a boat all to ourselves?

Helps me relax.

He?

Huh?

What's in the case?

The salvation of Italy, my friend.

But you cannot be revealed at this time, so you just want me to take this to

Italy, no?

Exactamente.

Now, inside are the plane tickets and the address to which the case must be

delivered.

I'll need diplomatic immunity to get this through customs. Also in the

Goodbye.

Forget it. You ain't gonna crack that one.

Hi,

Caroline.

Harry, I got your cable. When will you arrive?

My plane gets in at 10 .05, Carol.

That sounds like the start of a very bad cold.

No, it isn't a cold. It's just some water sports out of season. That sounds

intriguing. You said there was something you wanted me to check.

Just a minute.

Fire away.

The address is Villabianca, Via Appiantica,

Roma.

Check it out. Find out who pays the rent and calls it home, okay?

That shouldn't be too difficult.

Can you meet me at the airport?

No, I'll send a car. The driver will know where to take you.

Have a good flight.

All right, I'll see him.

Listen, throw this key in the safe.

Traveling with it might tempt some people.

You sleep like that?

I've grown very attached to it.

What do you say, CC?

Ah, that's what got you into the deep end.

Watertight case. Open and shut.

That I haven't tried.

What is this place?

Used to be the old Roman baths. Aida plays here next week.

That makes sense. Why did you pick here?

I thought we could use a little privacy.

Uh, have you any idea as to what's inside that appendage of yours?

No.

Only that it seems important.

to certain people as yet unidentified.

Not a bad place for a bath.

Last, the police.

No need to give them a hard time.

Double blast. I forgot my license.

Just pull up.

They want us out.

Gad, you're ugly.

Non parlare.

Ah, I'd say they don't shprek in English.

I'd say they don't smell like fuzz.

You hear that, Harry? He wants your case.

It's not mine to give. In that case, no case.

Ready? Ready when you are, C .C.

Costume, Randall.

And in no condition to answer questions.

Neither are we.

Those should fit. They're the same as soupies.

Let's go and get some sun.

That address I gave you to check.

Carpiano.

Se securo?

Ciao, Caro.

That's interesting.

It's a not immodest villa on the Via Appia Antica owned by a Prince Carpiano.

Old family estate?

New love nest.

Anything else we should know?

Only his reputation.

Money, mistresses, megalomania, some sort of obscure political ambitions.

Tell me why I have to take my water sports in the Thames.

In the city of eternal gossip, it's surprising how little is known about

Carpiano.

Carpiano. That's a good old Roman name.

That's right. They were babysitters for Romulus and Remus.

The name lost some of its luster during World War II when the prince became too

cozy with the wrong side.

But then many respectable families were.

So what side is he on now?

His wife died about eight years ago, rich American banking family.

Since then he's dropped out of the public eye.

You can hire a private eye.

when it's home?

No one to accept delivery.

Senor Harry Rue.

Hmm.

Doctor? This might open the case.

By opening this case, you've not only satisfied your curiosity, but ended any

possibility of your future usefulness to us.

Harry, it's ticking.

Ended usefulness.

Get that handcuff off.

All right, I'll... Harry, I want to stay.

Harry, let me stay. Get the damn thing off.

What was the point of bringing you all the way to Rome just to kill you?

They weren't after me.

I was just a decoy to lead someone on the wrong scent.

Which means that somewhere, someone else... Is carrying another dispatch

full of something rather important to Prince Carpiano.

Right.

Important enough to consider you expendable.

If you were found dead with the case, someone else gets the right case to the

prince. What do you intend to do?

Find the prince and collect my fee, plus damages.

This is Harry Rue.

How are you?

How are you?

Please.

Santa, do Negroni, please.

Ah, your friends are true Romans.

Fabrizio knows everyone who's doing what to anyone in Roma.

He's made it his business to find out about the elusive Prince Carpiano.

Go ahead.

He has a reputation for giving the wildest parties in town or out of it.

For a guy who's kind of shy of the limelight, how does he manage his guest

Some of the oldest names in Roman society seem to find their way there if

can come by the proper invitations. Where would there be?

The Carpianos, which means the prince, are still in possession of a large

estate, though it's mostly in ruins, about five miles outside Rome in the

I know it.

It says the family has gone from bad to perverse in a hundred generations.

How can we get invited to one of these parties?

Would you believe it, darling?

I just happen to have laid hands on a pair of invitations.

They look genuine, don't they?

The man who engraved them does all the best Michelangelo.

Does your friend also go in for counterfeiting diplomatic credentials?

artist, anything is possible, my boy.

Well, darlings, keep the vita dolce.

Oh, by the way, costumes son obligatore.

Ciao, Captain.

Ciao.

Well, you certainly know all the right people, love.

Don't be taking it.

Behind that painted facade lurks our man from Milano.

One of the toughest, darling.

How do I look?

Well, if you're real good, I'll let you read the bumps on my head.

There you go.

He's still

curious. What did you

tell him?

Friends of the prince.

Some people seem a little lacking in carnival spirit.

So I have noticed.

What is it?

Scout Piano.

Yeah, we met before.

Nice alarm he's got there.

Neat, but not gaudy.

Brothers of the new order, you know that our cause was not vain.

The success of our revolution is now in sight.

The hour for action approaches.

The waiting is...

my friends we will soon have in our possession the

cash with which to pay them the price they ask to

They're in the car, just in case.

Excuse me.

Brothers of the new order.

Just hang in here. The countess might have to make a quick exit.

The enemies of glory.

But now, now the past will be

vindicated. Our identity from

brothers to brothers.

The prince's party will have a rather different ending from that which he

planned.

Thank you.

Hmm?

first deduct my fee, then why don't you consider joining me in a joint account?

Harry, that's dirty money.

We will be landing in Geneva in five minutes.

Fasten your seatbelts, please.

Harry, we're on the wrong plane. This one isn't going to London.

To Geneva, a city of clocks and banks.

In the avenues and alleyways Where the soul of a man

is easy to buy
