She hasn't changed.

In seven years?

Well, in some ways, yes.

A few lines, maybe, and she used to wear her hair loose.

When I first entered Parliament, she was just a young doctor.

And now, chief delegate of the country.

And now you're a junior minister.

Attention. Attention, please.

The chairman of this first conference for medicine for peace is the chief

delegate of the Union of the Soviet Socialist Republic, Dr.

Irina Petrovna Gaevska.

An important person.

She is indeed to me.

I want to marry her, Mr. Rule.

Bring her to London.

I'm relying on you.

Is this a reliable forgery?

The best that money could buy.

There's no photograph.

It didn't work.

Yes. Yes, of course.

I understand you're going to travel with Irina. Yes. We thought perhaps Irena

might feel happier with a woman.

That was very kind of you.

Oh, don't worry, Mr. Easterbrook.

You will see her very soon.

Well, let's go.

I don't need to tell you how grateful I am to all of you.

Yeah, this is just the place.

Those woods will help.

Yeah.

Of course, our main problem could be that there's only one road back to

Salzburg. But we have the advantage of this being an official party.

Security must keep it a distance.

Is that it?

Yes.

There's no cover there for me. Don't be too long. Okay.

These boats are no good.

I can get a much faster job. And I've got the four -wheel drive cheap.

Good. I have found the right girl.

So we're all set.

Great.

I now call upon Professor Johnson from the British

delegation to address the conference.

Fellow delegates, first I would like to acknowledge how much my own work has

relied on the fundamental and original research of our chairwoman.

In many cases, a speedy diagnosis was essential.

For a number of years now, Dr. Gajewska has led the way, opening up new paths of

experiment, which I and many other scientists all over the world have

Radiation has become an emotive word.

But Dr. Gajewska is a true pioneer in the field of radiation for peaceful

uses.

I would like in particular to mention her spectacular success in the...

Dr.

Irina Gaevska.

This is the contact you are expecting.

Tomorrow you are going to the castle at Anif.

Now listen carefully.

Oh, it was entirely my fault. Fraulein.

Oh, really, I'm so sorry.

Fraulein.

I'm so sorry.

Maurice,

follow them.

Why have we stopped?

We're turning round.

We're doubling back to Salzburg.

This is the last call for flight 123 to London.

Right.

Okay, thanks, Paul.

I'll be landing in an hour.

I'd say the worst is over.

Yes.

How about some coffee?

Oh, yes.

Thank you.

Is this a direct flight?

Yes.

When you step off this plane, you will be in England.

Then that ticket gate in Salzburg, that really was the last frontier.

I will never forget what you have done for me.

You know that I will soon be free, but you will not know how I will feel.

Unless you have lived as I have lived.

Always watched, always respected.

You will always be watching over your shoulder.

Any second thoughts?

Who can leave home, family, even language

without some regret?

And your work?

That's easy.

Dr. Irena Gajewska, nuclear scientist, radiation expert, will

become Mrs. Irena Eastbrook, English housewife.

Miss Irena Eastbrook.

Isn't it time we were leaving?

Before we go, I'd like you to tell me what's on your mind.

I don't know what you mean. Look, we'll be late.

Eastbrook, you're a worried man.

I'd like to know why.

Well, I suppose you'll find out soon enough anyway.

There's someone else involved in all this.

Who? Jones.

Military intelligence.

So, you made a deal.

I don't make deals. Of course not. You make approaches through proper channels.

What do you mean? What are you suggesting?

You want to marry an important scientist.

A worldwide authority in her field.

Yes, I realize that.

And you must have also realized the British intelligence would be

So I repeat.

What's the deal?

It isn't like you think.

Irina is to be allowed to stay here. We'll get married and there'll be no

interference.

Go on.

Then after six months or so, when we've settled down, they'll ask her, mind you,

if... She'll assist them. Work for a few weeks at Cranfield.

The government research center.

A polite request.

No pressure. Her decision.

And you believed.

Ladies and gentlemen, we will be landing in a few minutes. Will you please

fasten your seatbelts?

How do you feel?

A little nervous

Oh, darling,

this is Mr.

Harry Rule.

Oh, Mr. Rule.

Caroline has told me a little about you. I'm so pleased to meet you. Dr.

Gajewska.

My name is Joe.

I mean, I want you to listen to me.

There are a few details, no more than formalities.

Formality? Yes, I want you to understand.

Who is this man?

A man from British intelligence.

For heaven's sake, Jones, couldn't you have had the common decency to wait?

Irina, I can explain.

You can't do this to me.

Irina.

Seven years.

Irina, please.

Permission has been granted for you to stay in the country, Doctor, but there

are certain conditions.

I can guess these conditions.

Irina, I had no choice. You must understand that.

Oh, I do understand.

But there is always a choice.

What do you want from me?

Your work is very important.

The car is waiting.

I came to England for one reason.

To marry.

I will never work for you.

Thank you.

You saw her wrist.

I once read a book about Hiroshima.

It was maybe a mistake.

Well, she didn't go home, Mr. Roo.

And she didn't stay.

Who was it?

A lot of hard work wasted.

Who was it?

What do you mean?

Who killed her.

You or them.

I don't understand.

There was a puncture mark on her wrist.

She was murdered.

She was a brilliant scientist, a unique intellect, a prize in the game we play.

As for who did it, Mr. Rule, you don't imagine anyone will ever know that.
