I have passed the storm area.

I am now proceeding on revised flight plan vector 283.

I shall relay my next report

after the news conference with the president.

- Right, Mr. Brand

We lost contact a couple of minutes back there.

Beginning to get a little nervous.

- Don't worry.

I'm fine.

Just fine.

- [Narrator] This is the voice of the Mysterons.

We know that you can hear us, Earth men.

You continue your futile defense against us

even though you must know that you cannot succeed.

In order to show you your ineffectiveness,

we will deal you yet another crippling blow.

We will destroy president Roberts within the next 12 hours.

(dramatic music)

- Well we've heard the latest Mysteron threat.

They intend to assassinate president Roberts.

- Yes sir, and within the next 12 hours.

There's no time to lose, what are my orders?

- You will go immediately and see the president in person.

I will arrange a meeting.

It is imperative that you explain to him

the danger he is in.

- I'll leave at once, sir.

- It'll be a tough assignment.

The president has a reputation that he doesn't scare easily.

- Yes, but he must be convinced.

- What can I do, colonel?

- I want you Captain Blue to cordon off

the presidential residence for the next

12 hours, the danger period.

We know that the Mysterons always strike

within their own deadline.

I want you to impose maximum security.

draft all the Spectrum personal you'd need.

Take Captain Ochre with you.

- SIG colonel.

- Request launch clearance. - Spectrum is green.

Proceed with takeoff.

- And what will our role be, colonel?

- I want the angels to challenge

anything with wings over flying the area.

If you have any suspicions at all,

do not hesitate to destroy the intruder.

Get down to the amber room, Destiny Angel

I'm ordering a launch in five minutes.

Lieutenant Green, launch all angels.

- [Green] Angel one, immediate launch.

- SIG lieutenant.

- Angels two and three, immediate launch.

(harp music)

Angels two and three, you will RV with angel leader

at reference X33 above Cloud Base.

- Harmony and Destiny Angels are climbing for RV.

RV complete, we're on our way.

(dramatic music)

- I'm a very busy man, Captain Scarlet.

Please be brief.

- Mr. President, Spectrum have imposed

a maximum Security cordon around your residence.

Now I would like your word that you will

not attempt to leave for the next 12 hours.

- I'm sorry captain, but I have a full schedule.

- But the Mysterons have threatened your life, sir.

- I get threatened every day of the week.

Phone calls, letters.

If I took any of them seriously,

I'd never get any work done.

- Sir, I don't think you realize the extent of their powers.

You've got to take them seriously.

- I have a heavy schedule this afternoon, Captain Scarlet

and that includes the launching of a ship.

- Remember Mr. President, the Mysterons killed

the director general of the United Asian Republic.

- All state leaders run the risk of assassination.

All right captain, you win.

but I must insist on holding my weekly press conference.

- Very good sir, but we'll screen all news men

with a Mysteron detector on entering the building.

(dramatic music)

- Suspect intruder at seven o'clock.

We will challenge.

Prepare to engage if necessary.

- SIG Symphony.

We'll adopt interceptor flight pattern.

(dramatic music)

- This is a Spectrum air patrol.

You are about to enter a restricted area.

Alter course immediately.

We have instructions to destroy any aircraft

violating the restricted air space.

Change your course.

You have five more seconds.

- Don't try and bluff me.

I know you wouldn't shoot down an unarmed aircraft.

- You've been warned.

This is your last chance.

Have you visual contact with the intruder, Harmony?

- Yes, Symphony.

- [Symphony] He refuses to cooperate.

Attack and fire a warning shot.

- SIG.

- Okay, you win.

My name's Martin Brand.

- Please explain your presence

in this maximum security air space, Mr. Brand.

- Sure, I'm heading for the president's news conference.

I'm a reporter for the Tribune.

- Very well, Mr. Brand.

One of our aircraft will escort you to an air strip

outside the restricted area.

If you can prove your identity,

you will be free to proceed to the press conference by road.

(dramatic music)

- Well well, another girl.

You don't look quite so frightening

without that missile button in front of you.

Maybe I should teach you a lesson.

- That is far enough, Mr. Brand.

My father is a judo black belt, third dan.

- And he taught you a thing or two, eh?

- No, I teach him.

I am a black belt fourth dan.

- I guess you've made your point.

You want to see identification?

Here's my press card.

- That seems to be in order, Mr. Brand.

You are clear to proceed.

- Good, I've been looking forward

to seeing president Roberts.

I think the meeting could prove interesting.

Most interesting.

(dramatic music)

- Any news, Captain Blue?

- No captain, weve checked out all the press men

and they're clean.

The Mysterons are leaving their attempt a little late.

- Yes, but theres less than an hour to go.

We must stay on the alert.

The Mysterons don't make empty threats.

(Suspenseful music)

- This is Captain Black relaying instructions

from the Mysterons.

You will carry out your mission.

Your orders are to destroy president Roberts.

- And to conclude this meeting with the press,

which I must say I have enjoyed,

I would like to say one thing.

We have all been under a great strain,

but with less than 15 minutes to go to the deadline

it looks as if the Mysterons have not succeeded

in carrying out their threat.

Thank you gentlemen.

(applause) - Thank you Mr. President.

- Well, so far captain Spectrum has done a good job.

- Again with respect sir, you haven't made it easy.

(dramatic music)

- Captain Ochre, I've been watching that saloon

parked across the street for some time.

I think we'd better check it out.

(intense music)

- Are you all right?

- Yes I'm okay, did you manage to get

the detector around on that car?

- No, there wasn't time.

There could be a connection between

that saloon and the Mysteron threat.

We'd better teLl Captain Scarlet.

(beeping)

- What is it Captain Blue?

- A suspect driving a black saloon,

license number 19B0419.

He drove away from the presidential residence

when we tried to question him.

A Spectrum saloon is in pursuit,

but we had a good start.

- Right, well as long as he drove away from the area.

Keep me informed. - SlG.

- Trouble captain? - Not really, Mr. President.

- Well it looks as though there's not

going to be a Mysteron attack.

There's still time for me to make that launching.

- I'm sorry.

- Well look captain, this was being kept a secret.

I've got a special interest in that ship.

It's being named after me.

- What was that?

- The atomic liner, it's going to be

called the President Roberts.

- Of course!

They could mean the ship.

(upbeat music)

- It's a pity the president

can't be here in person to see the launch.

- She's certainly a wonderful ship, dear.

- Yeah, she's the biggest atomic liner ever built,

and the fastest.

Mervin Brand, what are you doing here?

- I came to cash in on an old friendship.

I wonder if I could watch the launching from here.

Press enclosure's pretty crowded.

- Sure, anything for an old friend.

- Thanks.

Could I take a few pictures?

- Of course, Mervin.

I hope you get some good shots.

- Thanks, thanks very much.

- What is it Captain Scarlet?

- I've just found out that the new atomic liner

is to be called the President Roberts.

That could be the Mysteron target.

- I see.

- I'm going to the shipyard.

- Shall I come with you?

No, in case I'm wrong we mustn't

leave the president unguarded.

There's still a few minutes to the deadline.

Take charge, Captain Blue.

(upbeat music)

(eerie music)

- Mervin, Mervin, Mervin!

- I'm sorry, I was daydreaming.

- Well, we're nearly ready.

It should be a wonderful sight.

- It certainly will be.

(dramatic music)

(honking)

(upbeat music)

- Looks like a big crowd, wonderful.

- Yes, I'm so excited and proud of you, dear.

- Well, I'll start making the announcement.

As vice president of the Trans Pacific Shipping Corporation,

this is indeed a proud moment for me.

My only regret is that president Roberts

cannot be here to witness this great moment.

However, without further delay,

I'll ask my wife to launch the ship

of which you can all be so justly proud.

- I name this ship the President Roberts.

May God bless her and all who sail.

- Hold it, don't press that button.

I'm Captain Scarlet Spectrum.

There's reason to believe

that this launching has been sabotaged.

- Sabotaged?

- There's no time to explain, clear the area immediately.

- But I-- - Do as I say Sir, please.

- Right, we'll do as you say.

- Hurry up, there's very little time.

Stay where you are, Earth men.

- He's got a gun! - Mervin!

- Look out!

(gunfire)

Move, everybody, this shipyard could explode any second.

- Mervin Brand?

He was a personal friend.

- Please sir, clear the shipyard.

- Yes, yes captain.

I'll tell the dock supervisor.

- The ship yard is being evacuated.

Yes Colonel White? Yes, sir.

- That's what I said, get all people away from the ship.

A bomb has been planted.

No, no we don't know where.

It could go off any second.

Yes, hurry it up.

(sirens wail)

- I'll organize a search as soon as everyone is clear.

- That's what I said, get all people away from the ship.

A bomb has been planted.

No, no we don't know where.

It could go off any second.

Well captain, the shipyard will soon be evacuated.

- Good, you'd better leave as well.

- Right.

- Captain Blue, you can call off the cordon

around the presidential residence.

The Mysteron attack was against the atomic liner.

I've taken care of the Mysteron agent

and the area has been evacuated.

A booby trap may already have been planted,

but we can locate that with detectors.

It looks like the Mysterons have failed.

- No, Earth man.

We will be avenged.

(booming)

(dramatic music)

- Thank you for coming, Captain Blue.

I've had time to think, and the events of last week

have brought home to me the real menace of the Mysterons.

- Yes sir.

- Because of the quick thinking of Captain Scarlet,

a major disaster was avoided.

I only wish he was still with us,

so I could thank him in person.

- You can sir, he's outside.

- You mean to say he wasn't killed?

Get him in here. - Yes Mr. President.

- Do you realize how close he was to that explosion?

- Captain Scarlet.

- Mr. President?

- Captain, I'm amazed.

You don't even have a scratch.

- I guess I'm just lucky. - Lucky?

I'd say we're the lucky ones, having a man like you around.

Thank you, on behalf of everyone

all I can say is thank you captain.
