Lieutenant Commander Charles E. Rome,

you are hereby informed as 1400 hours

today, October 10th, 1969, you will no

longer be under the jurisdiction of the

Department of the Navy.

>> Excuse me, sir. You were further

informed that as a 1400 hours today,

October 10th, 1969, your commission as

an officer in the Navy of the United

States will be suspended. And concurrent

with said suspension, all rights and

benefits acrewing to you in the past or

due to you in the future as either an

officer in the naval establishment or

member of the armed forces of the United

States will forth with and forever be

revoked and cancelled. Not that it makes

a goddamn bit of difference to you, I

suppose. But but sir, I I

>> You will no longer address me as sir.

>> Under what authority have I been

separated?

>> I'm sure your new friends in Washington

can explain.

>> What friends?

>> Your friends in CIA or CIC or OI? How

the hell would I know? I do know that a

good many regular Army and Navy officers

are damn sorry those bastard

organizations ever came into existence.

Why aren't you in civilian clothes? Only

officers in the United States Navy are

entitled to wear that uniform. Once upon

a time, legend has it, some men even

died for it. Dismissed, Mr. Rome.

>> By what authority was my commission

revoked? The very highest authority. We

can have it back, though. But we give up

a quarter of a million dollars. Maybe

double, even triple that.

You probably made the wisest choice.

Safer back in the Navy.

All right. When do I begin?

>> Yeah. It'll give you some background of

what you're in for.

>> Tell me how you feel about them.

>> These are antiques. Kind of things that

were used 10, 20 years ago. Someone

called the pepper pot is dead. He failed

an important admission. Washington and

10 Downing Street in an uproar. turning

to someone called the highwayman for

help. He's being given all the money he

wants in complete autonomy.

And someone connected to the highwayman

has died from natural causes ascending

in new talent. A virgin that's me and

you're probably sweethe well well

100%.

>> What agents are we with?

>> No government agency. Jobs being farmed

out subcontracted to the highwayman.

How Stardivan would have crowed.

>> Robert Sturdivan.

>> That's right.

>> Do you know him?

>> I knew him.

He was a brutal, sadistic,

conscienceless assassin. He was also

individual spy sare.

>> Why would Ser be crying?

>> See the meeting humble pie.

>> Who's them? You see, before World War

II, intelligence operations were

conducted by independent agents. They

knew one another. They played bold

together. They traded information. They

even split fees. But you see, after the

war, bureaucracy took over. Where before

there had been a dozen agents in the

field, there were now thousands of them,

gathering information and feeding it

into computers.

Certain restrictions were placed upon

the oldtimers.

Sterivan couldn't or wouldn't change his

ways and finally every major agency

turned his back on him. The group

disbanded it and Sturivan dropped out of

sight. Then in 1954 he was reported dead

in his tumble.

>> How did I?

>> He committed suicide. Suppose the

highwayman handed him the gun and

watched him blow his brains out. Oh yes,

you you've got some fine playmates.

You'll be delivering this to the

highwayman in the morning.

Mr. Charles Rome.

>> Yes.

>> Right this way, sir. The train was late.

You've missed most of the service.

nephew Charlie

[Music]

[Music]

unto Almighty God, we commend the soul

of our brother.

Raymond Hatfield departed.

Earth to earth, ashes to ashes, dust to

dust.

>> Who is Raymond Hatfield?

>> Your predecessor, Scooter. Had a real

good memory. Want some coffee?

>> Now, I don't hold much with what folks

call total recall, but I guess you and

him come pretty close to having it. See,

you're his backup man, his replacement.

Sort of like football. Everybody on the

first string got to have a substitute.

Well, he up and died heart. So, off the

bench you come. Get the idea.

>> I think so.

>> Sorry to call you out so suddenly, but

uh old Scooter didn't give us much

warning,

>> nephew Charlie.

Now, you wouldn't take it unkindly if

every now and again I was to offer you

some little odds and ends of advice,

would you?

>> No, not at all.

>> Well, my face is bothering you.

It had a skin graft. Sure. Long time

ago. One of those postwar retread jobs.

It is not a thing of beauty. But if you

are going to look at me,

look at me. Don't check and recheck me

the way you've been doing. Your file

says you're as smart as they come. But

smart don't matter a damn unless you're

quick, too. You got to be both. See?

>> Yes.

>> Good.

Good.

Nephew,

you ever read through that file yours?

>> No.

>> Well, I don't recommend it. It might

just turn your head.

How many languages is it you speak

without an accent? Seven.

>> Eight.

>> Only fault they can find with you is in

the psychiatrist report. They speculate

about a death wish originating from your

boyhood when you saw your mama and papa

and brothers killed in a plane crash.

What do you say to that, nephew?

>> I say that's a lot of rubbish.

>> I got a different idea about uh why you

dove off that cliff in Aapokco. Why you

stuck your neck out so far in Korea?

Nephew, they say that heroes can't

imagine their own death and that's why

they're heroes. You go one better. You

imagine you're immune to violence.

>> Not only that, but you've taken the

trouble to collect the proof. Now, which

theory do you go with?

>> Neither one.

>> Neither one.

>> Well, now what do you think?

>> I think I'm a superior combination of

intellect and physique, athlete, and

scholar. When a risk is to be run, I

formulate the ideal procedure and

calculate the chances involved with

exquisite precision. If the percentages

are sufficiently in my favor, I put

myself into motion, having absolute

confidence in the performance of my

reflexes.

>> Nephew, the truth is you are full of

yourself. How much you got there?

>> $480,000,

>> right?

30,000.

>> Keep it.

>> You've been with the hiveman a long

time.

>> Long enough.

You must have known Sturdivan.

>> I know him.

>> You didn't like him.

>> He was a con man and a coward. He put

out more bushwire than Gobles did in

World War II and he built his own

legend. But the fact is highway man did

most of the work. He was the real brain.

>> When did I get to see the highway man?

>> You have seen him. Let's go see him

again.

>> Was everything in the suitcase?

>> Yes, sir. Well, nephew, I hope you're

not adverse to traveling.

>> No, not at all. By the ba, how are you

on tortillas and free holies and all

that kind of crap? So,

>> I'm going to Mexico.

>> Yes, sir. You're going to Mexico to pick

up Lord Ashley's [ __ ] You're going to

rustle up the warlock in San Francisco

and then make tracks to Chicago for the

erector set. Tell them the Tillinger

Foundation is planning an expedition.

I'm sure about the others, but the [ __ ]

might not want to come. He says that

he's done his last job.

>> Well, in that case, nephew, you give him

$25,000 in advance to soften him up.

Now, if that don't work, this will.

Two or three drops of that'll freeze him

for about 24 hours. Another drop or so

will give you oh an additional 10 hours.

Use more than six drops, call the

undertaker. Now, I don't think he'll

turn us down, but if he does, we want

the body flown back to the States. Alive

or dead, it don't matter which. Think

you can manage?

>> Yes. You'll be in New York in 4 days.

>> Nephew, you got 96 little hours. You

better step over here with me

and sit down.

Switch on that electronic brain of yours

and listen cuz I'm only going to give

you the names and numbers of all the

players one time. The [ __ ] in a

Not a bad I think I'll use it as a daily

Take your pick. The fat one's fantastic.

She's yours. $15. You can tell any other

two for 10.

>> The Tinger Foundation's buying an

exposition.

>> A bully for the Tillinger Foundation.

The business at hand is more important.

$30 says you can have more.

>> The Hyin expects you.

>> Plus the specialtity demolic

mushrooms. Now, let's make it let's make

it a sporting proposition.

I'll toss you double or nothing.

$60 or you have a whole brief. I have a

plane waiting.

>> Why should I do anything for the

highman?

Sturdy.

I'd go like a shot.

>> The sturdan's dead.

>> Oh my god. Don't say they've got you

good believing that horse cry too.

Chappie, I know Sterant.

He never would or ever could take his

own life.

>> Where is he?

>> He's waiting, my boy.

Somewhere

someplace,

he's waiting like a lion in a thicket.

You mark my words, Jeff.

He'll come out when the time is right.

>> He's just waiting.

>> I've um still got to take you back with

me.

>> And I don't wish to go. I have a good

thing here. Trading on human weakness. I

think I shall remain.

>> Money involved. Great deal of money.

$25,000 now.

>> No money can't budge me. The [ __ ] of

yesterday is dead.

>> Plus $100,000 on checking into the

Amen.

You absolutely won.

Greetings

>> Greetings.

>> The highway wants you in New York.

>> When?

>> Now.

>> Is he planning an expedition?

>> Yes.

My hands are gone.

I'm as worthless as an oyster for what

you need.

I've waited long enough for a job like

this. I'm staking my future with a

guard. PA is ready to take my place.

>> My orders are to bring the erector set.

>> You know anything about safes?

>> Good. Well, there's an experimental one

you've been practicing on. Now,

>> choose your own combination,

six figures, and I'll show you what a

woman can do.

>> Just to make it a sporting proposition,

let's set this time bomb for four or

five minutes. Or well, maybe that's a

little bit long. Tell you what, you uh

set it for 3 and 1/2 minutes.

Go on. Go on.

Ready.

She'll work it with only one hand.

What's your pleasure? Right or left?

Either one.

>> Do it with your feet. BA, let's get down

the other end of the room. We won't get

hurt at that distance.

She's a wanderer, though. I do say it.

She can go up a building like a human

fly. She can get in and out of anything

that Harry Houdini himself ever could.

No need to tell you the tricks they've

taught her.

[Music]

This appealing trial stands before a

crimson curtain. edged with heavy gold

braid and arranged in mannered folds.

>> Welcome

a surprise like that.

>> The founding fathers are not partial to

surprises. No one is

>> first flight down north wing. How come

to war that you're here?

>> The richness of the gar suggests Martine

Mazo the virgin.

>> Certainly she is of noble

>> rather than middle class.

A girl. You brought back a girl.

>> It's his daughter. He has arthritis. He

can't use his hands.

>> Your orders were for the erector said

himself.

>> But she's the best I've seen. She can do

anything.

>> You've seen. And how much have you seen

in your long dy career? I warned you,

didn't I, that none of these modern day

school boys was capable?

>> Capable of what? All I've seen around

here so far looks like a rumage sale of

artifacts. with one exception. This

girl.

>> Get him out of here.

>> Get him out.

>> Cross the hall. Wait for me there.

>> Well, nephew, you pleased with yourself?

>> No, but he didn't have to lay into me.

>> You took worse than that in the Navy.

>> Have you seen what she can do? Sure,

we've seen her. Excellent. That's not

the point, nephew.

You more or less forced that girl on us.

She knows who we are and where we are,

and we're beginning to wonder just how

disinterested you are.

>> Don't fool yourself. I have no interest

in the girl or whatever.

>> Oh, I didn't say you had in the girl,

but I am beginning to wonder how much

interest you have in us or against us.

>> You better watch it. They'll be coding

you out as hawkshaw.

Stand up, nephew. Stand up.

Now,

there comes a day in the life of every

smartass little boy when he must get his

comeuppants.

I don't have any of that high price

training and all those fancy oriental

styles that you made such good grades

in, but I'm going to take you and it may

kill you in the process. So you just

take this and use it the best way you

know how.

>> My god, how corny can you get?

>> Nephew, tell me when you're ready again.

And while we're waiting for the rematch,

I think maybe you'd better answer some

questions.

>> Well, you earned the right to ask them.

>> Something's bugging you, nephew. Let's

get it right out in front.

>> The cables, the funeral, the museum, the

people involved, their absurd names.

I keep asking myself, what's next to

this mad tea party? Nephew, I don't know

what they taught you in the classroom

about intelligence and espionage.

Everything I know, I learned on the

street, but I can assure you of one

thing.

It has no size, no shape, and no rules.

At the very best, it's what you least

expect. So, you got to be ready for

anything. You want to be in on the fun?

Shag right on downstairs and start

learning your first steps.

>> First, let your hair grow, especially

the sideburns and the back of your neck.

Use no oils, whatever. Only water. Let

the hair on your nose grow. And do the

same with the fuzz on your ears. H.

Now your teeth. How many fillings have

you?

>> Uh, two.

>> On your way, they will have to be

replaced. Vaccination scars.

>> Uh, one.

>> The priest will burn it off.

>> Excellent scar. Exactly like an old

shrap home. Excellent.

>> You were with the Red Army in the last

days of Stalinrad.

You have only two fillings which were

done in the field hospital after the

Russian victory.

[Music]

Look frightened for God's sakes for your

work permit.

[Music]

Oh, you're a whoopy thumb.

or the hand is healed sufficiently to

slip into place. It's full of poison. If

you're captured bite with a nail, death

should be almost instantaneous.

>> Come in.

Could I have a cigarette? I don't have

any.

>> Yeah, sure.

>> Thank you.

>> Light?

>> No, I'm I'm going to smoke it in my

room.

something the matter.

>> I've never been away from home.

I've never been away from home.

I've never known a man.

I I told my father I had, but I I

haven't.

My father says that going to bed is an

intricral part of the job and

and one must be good at it.

So I thought that uh

I mean I

[Music]

Passport,

birth certificate, working papers.

Traveling papers, ID card, plus 110

rubles, 75 copex. Start getting used to

it.

>> Where?

>> What are you calling him?

>> Gorgi Davididi from Tiflas.

Nephew Yorgi, the time has come to find

out just how well you have learned your

lesson. Tell us about Polov.

>> Name Polov Dimmitri Elich, born Moscow,

February 19th, 1905. Father Elia, mother

Ger, occupation of father, picture frame

maker.

>> There was a picture. Describe him.

Strong, clever face with a large acqual

nose, thick lashes over heavy lided

eyes, straight bushy eyebrows, a full

sharply defined lips, a wide, heavy law

jaw. And the report during World War II,

he fought with the Dutch resistance,

acting as a liaison with the French

marquee. Toward the end of the war, he

joined up with Robert Sturdivan,

remained with that group until it was

disbanded. Then he became an independent

agent. In 1955, he um opened a small

gallery in Paris. He traveled between

Paris and Moscow as an art dealer. Most

of his friends were homosexuals.

>> Take two specific times, 1956 and 1969.

>> Moscow 1956, he met up with an old

friend from university days named Chu

Chang. Chang was connected with the Red

Chinese embassy. He and Polikov cooked

up some narcotics business. Polyov liked

money. He wasn't particular how he made

it. Uh the plan failed. Chang got caught

and Pikov escaped.

>> 69.

>> In 1969, he showed up in Washington with

material to sell about Russian Hungarian

relations. From then on, the information

began to flow. During a six-month

period, he was paid more than $400,000.

He never revealed the source of his

information except to say that he was a

high Soviet official. At the end of

those six months, he married a young

German prostitute, Erica Beck.

People who knew her described her as

being dissolute, highly neurotic, and

apparently very much in love with Polio

Puff.

>> How many times you read that?

>> Once.

>> Bravo.

Bravo, nephew. Sit down.

Sit right down there, and I'm going to

tell you the rest of the story. In

August 1969, Poliov appeared once more

in Washington. He had a request from his

Soviet source. What he asked for was

tangible proof that a deal with the West

was a realistic political possibility.

What he really wanted in writing was a

guarantee that the United States would

assist the Soviet Union in destroying

China's atomic bomb project at Lapnor

and Sinqiang.

The top executive in one of the most

powerful intelligence agencies in the

United States government took it upon

himself to write what amounted to a

declaration of war against China.

Pulakov was in Moscow with it the next

morning. Four days later, he reported

from Paris. The letter had been

delivered. That same day, 10 Downing

Street in the White House both heard

about it and it really hit the fan. They

began to raise all kinds of hell. The

responsible agency was ordered to get

that document back at any cost. So, they

contacted Polov. Polikov agreed to talk

to his man and 10 days later reported

back that the document could be returned

for $1 million. Polikov was given the

million dollars out of agency funds and

he and his wife took off from Moscow.

Three days later, the third department

arrested Polikov, his wife, his mother,

and his sister. And 24 hours after that,

the Soviet press announced the capture

and death of the traitor Pikov. Ksnoff

was praised for his work. Colonel Yakov

Nicolovich Kosnov, chief of the Soviet

Third Department, and during World War

II, a remarkably effective espionage

administrator.

Ksnoff is a merciless killer.

That's his aid, Lieutenant Vasili

Vasilivich Groden.

He was educated during the post-war

technological boom. He's of the new

Russia.

Groden's father-in-law

and the Kremlin's watchdog over the

third department,

Alexi

Breznovich.

Permit

me to congratulate you on the excellent

speech you made.

>> I see. Thank you.

>> I bought the papers. Your picture is on

all the front pages.

>> I'm afraid the speech was only an excuse

to come to New York

and the choir is painting.

And how's it going in your division,

Comrade Potkin?

>> Very well, thank you.

Are you coming with series 5?

>> Comrade Cosmo seems pleased.

>> It was asking the impossible

to track down all US agents and to find

out their assignments.

I understand you've done a remarkable

job.

>> Thank you, comrade.

>> The likeliest candidates.

>> Candidates?

>> Yes. For replacing Polyov.

I I don't understand.

>> Don't pretend with me, Comrade Podky.

You must know what's behind all this.

>> Yes. Complete knowledge of enemy agents

and their locations makes all counter

espionage work much more easy.

>> Cosnov is only interested in making

counter espionage easier.

For this, his department has spent $2

million in two months.

>> I would suppose so.

I am not informed of all his plans. I I

only do what is asked of me.

>> Surely you know why

series 5 is so important.

>> I told you why.

>> What's important is to find that letter.

>> What letter?

>> Comrade, this is 1969.

Stalin and Bri have been dead a long

time. Old friends don't fight with each

other.

>> I'm not. Two months ago, Pakov

went to Moscow to deliver this letter.

It was a written agreement intended for

some

high Soviet official.

Now, this letter.

>> No, no, no, no. I don't want to know

about the letter. Please.

>> I don't know.

From now on,

you, Comrade Potkin,

will supply me with all the information

that comes to your department

before passing it on to Cosna,

at least the day before.

>> You put me in a very delicate position.

>> I once did you a service when you were

in an even more delicate position.

after the Hungarian trouble.

>> But I work for Colonel Cosnov.

>> And who recommended you to him?

>> No, I'm asking for repayment.

>> What have you say, comrade?

>> We've got to establish headquarters in

Moscow. That means we need an apartment

or a house belonging to a Russian who

doesn't use it very much, like Captain

Potkin.

Potkin is the head of the Soviet third

department's United States operation.

Apparently, Captain Potkin has no

exploitable vices, but we might be able

to get at him through his wife and two

daughters.

That's Dasha Potkin,

age 41. Her husband is 62.

Elena Puthkin, age seven.

Sonia Butkin,

18. Her father's pet

She lunches every day in the cafeteria,

invariably alone. Sometimes after lunch,

she goes to Central Park Zoo and

sketches lions for half an hour. Only

lions, for God's sake. She never speaks

to anybody except a couple of the black

girls in life class. They look at her

sketches and she looks at theirs. Sorry,

old man. There's not very much to go on.

>> It's quite a lot.

[Music]

My

It's set for Thursday at 4.

Foreign

speech. Foreign speech. Foreign speech.

Papa,

>> comrade, we want that apartment. We want

it so bad we'll turn your wife and

daughters inside out to get it.

That's at the Institute where I met you.

Very beautiful long hair.

>> But I've got to get home.

>> Kiss me goodbye then,

>> comrade. She can still be saved.

>> No, please.

>> If only you agree.

>> Going to hurt you.

>> If you don't agree, we will turn her

into the most perverted human being our

minds can conceive. And when we finish

with her, we'll start on your other

daughter and your wife.

>> Oh, no.

>> Take her away from there.

>> Not doing anything bad.

>> Give us the apartment.

>> No.

>> Even if I

give the apartment to you, it will be no

good. Cuz will know. He'll find out.

>> No, he won't.

>> It will never work.

>> It will work smooth as silk. You're

trying to get a line on us agents. Any

file you don't have, we'll give you. We

want cause enough to have them.

What about my family?

>> They stay in this country with our

people. No harm will come to them.

>> Take the apartment, but leave my wife

and daughters alone.

Who will I of us? Please.

Please.

>> And to think this was one of Barrier's

executioners. Get him out of here.

There are only two bedrooms in Podkin's

apartment, which should make it very

convenient for our younger associates.

We all know you've been shacking up

together.

Now, look, I think we've left no stone

unturned.

But let's not kid ourselves. If any of

us is caught, there's only a remote

possibility we'd be mistaken for

Russians. Keep in mind that close

examination takes time, and that time

they use on you could let the rest of us

escape.

>> Don't be too quick to die.

We should decide now what to do with the

money in case anybody's lost. Send it to

the families. Divide it among the

survivors.

>> I'm for the usual way.

>> Usual way is survivors take all.

>> Let's see a show of hands.

>> Well, we've all done our homework on

Pyov's file. Our first objective is to

find his contact. Could be a hop, a [ __ ]

a voyer. We'll start our search in the

sewers of Moscow.

Horror will push hard narcotics of

warlock art and homog

ran ba your assignments after we get to

Moscow.

>> When will we be leaving?

>> That all depends on a snowstorm in

Siberia.

Nice comfortable place old Potkins got

>> Yes, lots lots of relatives. Maybe too

>> Well, all of us won't be staying here

together for more than a few days. The

others will have to find separate

burrows in Sodom. Only time they'll show

up here is to rendevous with the Grand

Mute.

>> What's that?

>> That's you, nephew.

See, our outfit is collecting a whole

lot of information. And what are we

going to do with it? We can't tape it.

We can't type it. We can't scratch it

down with a pencil. So, we're going to

tell it to you. You're going to be our

walking diary. Now, you just come around

and sit in the big chair, and I'll tell

you all about it.

Now,

whoever's here, I'll put that red carpet

out on the balcony. That's signal all

clear. And this will be their guarantee

that they're not talking to a stranger.

We'll find some place to hide this out

in the hallway.

>> None of us will be armed. Oh no, nephew.

They take a man with a gun, he ain't got

a hope in hell. They go right to work on

him, and that means his friends got less

chance to get away. No.

Now, let's get back to the grand mute.

There'll be a separate code for each

session, for each person.

Suppose codes 183, a total of 18 on a

series of three. Now, you make a mistake

and one of them will put a bullet

>> It's maniacal.

>> No, it's not, nephew. Now, it'll work.

The odds are right. Three out of our

five people will have no idea who's

receiving that message. Now, put that

damn thing on and let's start rehearsing

again. Now, wait a minute. Did we lose a

man coming in? You said three out of

five.

>> That's right. We lost a highway man. All

according to plan, nephew. He had

terminal cancer. Sacrificed two or three

weeks of suffering for the success of

our operation.

They walk the streets or give themselves

Comfort. Comfort is the thing of the

>> Arena.

>> Biscuits.

I'm down to one girl. That thing there.

Thank you.

If I were a man, I would pay to keep

something like that out of my bed.

The thing is the girls have to work in

factories 10 hours a day. When they get

out and lie beside a man, there is

romantic sardines in it.

Tenderness is dead. There is no more

culture.

You say restrictions have been lifted in

Prague?

>> Not really, but there's always a way.

Can you get me say five beautiful young

girls? We could be partners.

>> I still don't know you.

>> We solved just the same problems quite

easily in Prague. We made addicts of the

girls.

>> That is a sin. A practical sin. It costs

less money and makes them dependent on

you. And it works.

Now, where can we get drugs here?

>> It is very difficult to come by. I want

no part of it.

>> Where can I get drugs here?

>> There is a Chinese.

He's called

>> Can you arrange for me to meet him?

She was Polkov's wife. They all thought

that she was dead and buried until last

You said we'd go for a holiday.

You said we'd leave at once. Now you say

we can't go.

>> Can't be helped.

>> We can't be helped.

Aren't you in charge of your department?

>> Aren't you the one who gives the orders?

>> Something has come up.

>> What?

>> No, I can't discuss it with you.

>> Why don't you marry me so you can tell

me something? Like Polakov did.

Why don't you marry me so you can tell

me something?

>> I'm sure Pol didn't discuss his work

with you.

>> Are you?

>> That's what you told me.

Well, I lied.

>> Then or now?

>> Then

he told me things because he trusted me.

>> What did he tell you then?

>> Thanks.

If you take me dancing, maybe I'll tell

you,

>> this is what I was famous for in the

Berlin houses.

Sorry to disturb you at this time of the

night, Cameron Cosmo.

>> A van missing from Barakuta for 5 days

has been found with two corpses instead

of one.

>> Sure.

>> The missing driver of the van is still

missing. The man found behind the wheel

was about 60 foreign dental work. His

companion, a man of 35, also foreign

dental work. This was observed in Varuto

where the bodies were taken. The message

just came through on the telephone.

Because of its unusual nature, I came at

once. Polycross replacement.

Highly impractical to come in by the

car. Perhaps that's where they chose it.

Have the bodies flown here for autopsy.

Levit. Okay.

>> Kito, who are you?

>> Yes, Braggy.

>> I'm from Prague.

>> Sophie,

>> Sophie and I are in business together.

>> Why did you come to me?

>> Deal.

>> To make a deal.

>> What kind of deal? I can get this in

unlimited quantities.

>> Not interested.

>> Why not? There's a lot of money in it.

>> Moscow is just not the place for a big

operation.

>> Has it ever been tried before?

>> Oh, yes. Many years ago by a man named

Chang, but he was caught by the third

department.

>> Who are Chang's customers?

>> What I want from you is a list of their

names and nothing else. I'll take all

the risks and go 50/50 with you on the

profits.

What have you got to lose? Even if I

cheat you, which I won't,

those names are no good to you. Think

about it. If you want to talk it over,

you know where to find me.

Madam Sophie,

>> identification of the young man was

simple.

>> You obtained fingerprints from the body.

They correspond to this file.

>> Carl Evans Ron O SNI.

>> So does the dental work. Definitely

American by the way.

>> Rookie takarelli.

>> The hands of the men behind the wheel

were too badly burned to take clear

fingerprints.

But dental work, also American, matches

this file on someone called the highway

man.

Postmotum revealed that he was suffering

from lung cancer terminal stage.

Hi,

>> is this file up to date?

>> Yes, the latest from

Thank you, doctor. and uh forward your

official report together with these

fires to me personally.

>> Who was this highwayman?

>> An oldtime agent

during the war. He was with Steran.

>> But why would they want to send in a

dying man?

>> To show the younger man the ropes,

perhaps help him get his bearings.

Goddamn fools trying to come in through

Varutoa.

>> It will take some time before the West

finds out what happened.

Send Potkin an official commenation

and arrange for him and his family to

have a holiday at the altar at

government's expense.

I heard something fascinating today

about Gossnov, the chief of the third

party.

They said he got married. You never

guess who too.

>> Who? The widow of the traitor Dimmitri

Polyakov.

You knew him very well, didn't you,

Rudolfph?

I uh he was a mere acquaintance. I I met

him at one of your lectures, professor,

a few years ago. I saw him a few times,

that's all.

>> But you were questioned when he was

caught. Oh,

>> it's very unfair of you, Ilia. You know

perfectly well all our cultural ministry

were questioned and lots of others, not

only myself.

>> Ilia, you must not te the Rudolph. So it

is cruel.

>> Naughty.

>> You're right.

>> Apologize.

>> I'm sorry, Rudolph.

Besides, I doubt it could be the same

man. Dimmitri Pokov certainly was not

married when I knew him.

Rudolph says he's in love with me. He

claims that I'm the only one he's been

in love with since Pikov, and talking

about their affair makes him weep. He

wants me to leave the professor and move

in with him. I told him it wouldn't be

wise to break off so suddenly, but that

I would find a way soon.

I'm knitting these bed socks for him.

>> What's this? Um, Miky like

>> he's all right.

>> Did you ask if you could move in with

him?

>> No, I got him to ask me.

>> He has a mother, you say?

What about her? Is she happy about it?

>> She's a nice old woman.

>> Where do they live? 23 Alicia Street

behind the central market. Two dark

little rooms in a tenement.

He's um he's a small time thief. He'll

never be anything else. He hasn't the

talent.

He's incurably lazy, but he's

rather charming.

>> Have you been to bed with him?

>> No, not yet.

>> But after you move in with him?

Yes, I suppose so.

[Music]

>> Get your ass in here.

Come on.

>> Buck up, nephew. Buck up.

>> You still got the grand mute, a

receiving set, and me.

>> Take me to nightclub. Take me.

>> If we finish early, I'll take you to

what?

>> Russians never finish eating early. You

all eat like pigs at a club.

>> I want no talk like that tonight. I want

you to remember the story. I want you to

repeat it just as I told you.

>> Now listen, besides our host, his

daughter and Chloe,

>> there will also be Gregori Sergage Kazal

and his wife. Gregori Sergage is a

highranking Kremlin adviser. So don't

make any mistakes, please.

>> Who's this Breavich that you have to

come running when you call us?

>> Breavich.

Alex Ivanovich. Breovich.

Say it. Alex Vanovich Breznovich.

Satisfied?

>> I want you to remember it and don't

drink too much, please.

>> Who is he anyway?

>> Member of the central committee.

>> He your boss.

>> Mhm. In a way.

>> Then I go to bed with him so you can

have a promotion.

>> The Katai sent for me and we've done a

deal.

These were Chang's customers. It's an

interesting list. includes three

military heroes, a director of a ballet,

and Alexa Ivanovich Breznovich. God

knows if after all this time they've

still got the monkey on the back, but

I'll soon find out. And you know what?

Katy offered to pay me for information

about Czechoslovakia.

I'd say he's in the same business as we

are.

You are as pretty as they say.

>> You are agent in Paris.

>> Yes.

>> It's dangerous work for a woman.

>> If you believe in a cause, danger is not

frightening.

>> I could never be an agent. I just

wouldn't have the courage and I wouldn't

have the duplicity required.

They say that you married an enemy agent

and brought him back to Russia to be

captured.

>> I married the man Polikov on orders from

Colonel Kosnov.

My mission was to stay with him and

learn of his activities.

>> But why would he come here if it wasn't

because of you?

>> I'm afraid that's classified

information.

I assume you're all above suspicion,

Colonel. I'd like to hear your wife's

answer, too, if it's permissible.

>> Our counter espionage said Pikov would

come to Moscow to make contact with a

high Soviet official willing to give

information to the West. No. Is it true?

It turned out to be false lead. He came

to Moscow to introduce me to his mother

and his sister. I'd married him in vain.

Darling, next time you have your wife

get married, I hope it will prove more

productive.

>> Is that true, Colonel?

Is that the reason Pyokov came to Moscow

in September?

>> Yes, but he was here before and aroused

my suspicions then. So when I knew he

was in Moscow again, I had him picked

up.

>> Yeah.

>> Shall we leave the gentleman? Perhaps

you'd like to see some of the paintings.

>> Yes, why not?

>> Go ahead, Cosnov.

If this man Pokov was indeed in contact

with some defector of high rank, we want

that traitor found as much as anyone.

But

>> he will be found.

>> We are still more concerned about

internal security.

this incident near Oruta, the two men in

the van. It is your opinion that they

were enemy agents sent in to contact the

traitor.

>> Yes, most likely they were.

>> After the police laboratory finished

with them, just as routine double check,

comrade Kazer and I had the two corpses

taken to another group of doctors.

Colonel,

your report,

the official report claims that the two

men died in the crash. But according to

our doctors,

this was only true of the agent called

the highman.

Charles alone was dead before the fire

began.

Dead and frozen.

>> That is possible.

Now this highwoman used to work for the

notorious Sturdivant

and as you know Sturdivant had a

pattern. He began every operation with a

diversionary move.

>> Now you think that is what happened

here.

>> Well if our doctors are right Colonel a

dead man was carried into this country.

The second man was to have left the

corpse as a decoy to divert your

attention to a specific area

and then escape.

We did observe there was a difference of

degree in the burning of the bodies. But

the highwayman was pinned behind the

wheel. Ran was thrown to the floor.

Flames from the explosion melted the

snow. The water collected around him in

a pool. His body had to be chopped out

of a solid block of ice.

It is quite conceivable that under these

conditions he would appear to have died

a little earlier. If there was a slight

variation of time, it is of very little

importance.

Indeed,

I'm sure he's joined the ladies.

>> As to Sturdivant's so-called pattern, I

can tell you this.

He never sacrificed a single man on a

diversionary move.

Perhaps you know more about him than I

do.

Your husband's been reminding us of a

spy called Sturdivan.

After the war, his men ran wild over

Eastern Europe. It was almost impossible

to flush them out. Still, your husband

succeeded.

>> I love to hear about spies. Do tell us

about it, please. It was a long time

ago. I'm not sure of the details any

longer.

>> Colonel is too modest.

Imagine.

All he actually knew was that three of

Sturder's men were in a small Polish

village. Correct.

>> I think so.

>> He had to determine which of the 2300

people in the village were the three

wanted. So he rounded up the entire

population, began to interrogate

and execute each of them one by one.

Then it seems

that when your husband started killing

the children,

one of Sturdivan's men tried to make a

run for it. was caught of course and

your husband was able to make him talk

as

only he can

stuck it quite rich. She was a unit

leader in charge of an entire operation.

Was it chemicals you used or physical

persuasion? Colonel

and that fellow Polyov, what did you use

on him? Acid, wasn't it? I've heard

that's like pouring molten lead down a

man's throat.

How long is he able to stand up under

torture like that, Colonel?

[Music]

>> Don't worry, Colonel.

She'll be all right.

After all,

a wife has a right to know exactly what

her husband

contributes to society.

Erica,

where have you been? I've been looking

for you everywhere. My men are still

searching for you.

Where were you?

>> Tell me.

>> Smoking hushes.

One of those places that doesn't exist.

Smell.

>> You've been missing for over 5 hours.

Took me that long to forget what

Brnovich said about you. Did you expect

me to just sit there and listen?

They hate me, all of them. It's silly,

Madame Casar. And that stack up Mrs.

Groin.

They hate you, too.

Breznovich hates you.

>> Yes, he does. He has always hated me.

Many years ago, he tried to replace me

with a western agent. The man called

Sturdivant. Comrade Breznovich offered

him my job. My job.

>> What do I care?

>> You should. You wanted me to tell you

things. Well, I am.

Stern and I were friendly during the

war. Very friendly.

Even afterwards during the cold war we

played along with each other.

I allowed his group to operate in my

area and he did the same for me.

But such an arrangement called for a

measure of trust on both our parts.

>> And you betrayed him.

>> I had no choice.

But asich was after my scalp. I had to

do something spectacular.

Sturdivan swore to kill me.

He died before he could carry out his

threat.

I nearly went out of my mind last night.

Come on.

Come. Let me hold you in my arms.

You're a naughty, naughty girl

to worry me. So, what am I to do with

you? Buy you some cigarettes. I suppose

you can smoke them here at home so I can

watch over you.

>> You know, when he first met Parkov,

Rudolph was working for a department in

the cultural ministry. He was

responsible for the cataloging of our

treasures stolen by the Germans from

France and Italy. They hit it off

instantly. Took an apartment together

and spent what Rudolph calls the

happiest months of his life. Then

Rudolph introduced Parkov to his boss

Alex Breznovich.

And after that everything was different.

Barakov suddenly became cold then

disappeared. Didn't see him again for

three years.

About 4 months ago, he came home one

night and there was Parkov waiting for

him. He told Rudolph that uh he was in

serious trouble and he said his affair

with Breovich was over and that the

split up had caused bad blood. He

confessed to being afraid of Breovich.

What a spot for Brevich to be in. He

could take his pick of the masterpieces,

destroy the files, and unload the

paintings through his boyfriend in

Paris. Now, I'll tell you what I'm going

to do. I'm going to scoot right on over

to Paris and check on just what Poliov

sold. If they're important works,

they're traceable. It might be a rumble

in the art world. I'm leaving now. You

move in to Madam Sophies and don't you

come back here except for the Grand Mute

Sessions. Remember, nephew, there is

nobody guarding your rear. So, watch it.

How you getting out,

essence, I'll come back by plane with a

different identity. Probably French.

I'll be back. Um,

black market with stolen electrical

That makes two of us.

I wish I were home with my father.

I want to go home.

I'm crazy about you. I can't get enough

of you. Do you feel the same way? Do you

really like me?

>> Yes.

>> How much? How much do you like me?

>> I like you more than I like anybody

else.

>> Enough to go away with me.

>> Where too?

>> To the west. Well, that's easier said

than done.

>> I'm sure you know somebody who can help

us.

>> Difficult because of who your husband

is. We're afraid of him. Cost a lot.

>> I have 1,200 rubles.

>> Not enough. Not nearly enough. No. No

more love making for love's sake with

you every day.

I'll have to take on more customers.

>> No.

>> I don't mind. I'll just close my eyes

and pretend they're you.

>> No, no, no, no, no. It's not just a

matter of getting out. I'll need enough

to tie this over till I get started at

something.

>> Once we're out, everything will be fine.

>> How's that?

>> There will be money waiting for us.

>> How much?

>> Enough for the rest of our lives.

>> How is it you have so much money?

>> My first husband was rich. It's all in a

bank in Tangier.

>> Yogi will lead the most wonderful life

two people ever had.

Does Kosnoff know about the money?

>> Of course. Imagine telling that swine.

>> He's your husband.

>> I married him because as his wife, I

could go with him on trips. Once I would

have accompanied him to the west and

disappeared,

but now it's you.

>> Why not keep to your plan and go with

your husband to the west and I'll join

you?

>> It might take months. I can't stand him

anymore. If you felt the same way as I

do, but you're other women, you'd hate

him touching me.

Oh, it's late. It's almost 1. I have to

meet him at his mother's. We're putting

her in a train.

>> Listen, my mother-in-law is going away

for a month. We could use her apartment.

Even better, you could stay there.

>> I'll receive customers there.

>> Of course not. That's the whole point.

>> How can we get money to go to the West?

>> I'll fix it somehow. I'll have my

husband buy me expensive things we can

sell on the black market. The sable coat

or jewelries?

>> I don't know.

>> Here, here's the address. St. Nicholas

Square, number four, second floor to the

left. Key will be under the mat. You'll

move in tonight and I'll come to you

tomorrow. I'll wake you up. If you're

not asleep, pretend to be.

At your mercy, comrade,

you help me in Hungary. Help me again.

Please, please

They took the men from Prague half an

>> Who took him?

>> The secret police. I thought at first it

was a raid, but they didn't bother me or

the girls. They were after the men from

Prague. They grabbed him, put handcuffs

on him, and marched him out. Do you know

what it's all about?

>> Do you have a gun, Madam Sophie?

>> No. The men from Prague had one, but

they found it among his things.

>> Mh. and the girl do not keep regular

>> You'll pay for information about them.

>> Yes. Yes. Undress me.

>> Okay. You'll pay 20,000 rubles. It's our

>> Stop it, Yorgi. You're torturing me.

>> Erica.

>> Damn you.

>> Some Western agents were caught by

Kenos's men in a raid yesterday

afternoon. Are any of them still alive?

If so, where's Kenov got them

>> yesterday afternoon?

Impossible.

>> Why?

>> Because I was with Kosnov all day

yesterday.

We had lunch with his mother and then we

put her on the train to Yala. We had

drinks and dinner with the Casar. We

went straight home and to bed. I dreamed

about you.

Cosmo must have thought it was him I

wanted, but I woke up and I pushed him

You're one of them, aren't you?

What?

>> You're one of the men they're looking

for. One of the men they didn't find

yesterday.

>> I know what you're talking about.

[Laughter]

I should have guessed.

Perhaps I did.

I think I knew all along. I just didn't

want to accept it.

I had to trust someone once in my adult

life.

there were others.

>> That's the word you live in.

Truth can have no meaning at all.

Otherwise, you're suddenly dead.

You'll have a splendid future, Yogi.

Still have a few things to learn,

though. should have made love to me just

now, for instance. Sleeps like that can

be fatal.

>> I'll get you out of here. I'll take you

to America.

>> America.

>> You're an American.

>> The image is crumbling fast. Leave me

some memories at least.

Do you have an escape route?

>> Yes.

>> Then get yourself out. Forget about me.

Forget about the others. Take my advice.

Get out of here.

>> I can't.

>> I'll take it all back. You're a fool.

What's worse? You're a romantic fool.

There was a woman you said. Are you in

love with her?

I see.

I do what I can to find out about her

and the others.

You can stay here. Don't worry. I won't

betray you.

I'll try Melina Casar first. If I get

any new cell phone,

>> ring three times and hang up. Ring back

immediately and I'll answer you.

Two of the men are dead. Third one is

being held for questioning.

Say the girl took poison. She was dying.

She's probably dead.

>> Do you wish to see me or have I served

my purpose?

>> I'll get you out. That's what you want.

>> I want you.

Shall I come?

>> Yes. Be here at 6:30. 6:30.

Please tell come breast and visit

polycost replacement

telephone.

>> I know who stole our treasures from the

USSR. I know who supplied top level

secrets to the west. I know who the

document was intended for, where it is,

and whose name is on it.

>> Yeah,

>> I've written four letters naming names

and giving dates. Two have been mailed

to Washington. In a matter of hours, the

other two will be in the hands of the

central committee. Are they recoverable

>> under certain circumstances?

>> Are you selling?

>> Trading

>> what?

>> Your raid yesterday. Any survivors?

>> One man.

>> Who?

>> Bored.

>> Haven't brought to your house. I'll call

back for half an hour.

Nephew,

>> are you all right?

>> Yeah. Yeah.

>> So far.

>> Give me best.

>> Yes.

>> I'll recover the items mentioned earlier

in exchange for passports and absolute

security for my friend and myself until

we leave. Very well.

>> Have a meet me in Nikolia Square at

5:00.

>> And the two items that are here,

>> I'll either send them to you or destroy

them.

>> Destroy them. No interest in reading

what I already know.

>> I'll also destroy the two in the west

when I get back.

>> Tell me one thing.

Where is the Kremlin letter?

>> And Ping.

Peek.

[Music]

>> Nice work, nephew. Getting me sprung.

This is cozy. Who's is he?

>> Cars mother. She's away.

>> How come you didn't get caught?

>> The warlock saved me. I saw him jump.

>> What time was that?

>> 2:00.

>> Well, nephew, why didn't you come to the

airport and warn me? You knew I was

coming in on the 3:00 plane.

>> BA was due at 3.

>> Oh, I see. It was her or me.

>> If I'd had a gun, I could have saved

her. It was a very quiet little raid. I

was a sitting duck, but not a shot was

fired.

I guess Presnovich didn't want the third

department to know.

>> Well, uncle, you don't look any worse

for the experience.

>> Nephew, they were just about to start. I

mean, when your phone call came, did I

remember to say thank you?

>> Sure.

I've been putting things together.

Some match and some don't. About the

letter, I went to the Katy and he tried

to have me killed. I figure P King's got

the letter and he's going to use it to

blow the lid off Holy Russia.

>> That's amazing, nephew. I got to hand it

to you.

>> Our mission's a failure. Our people are

dead. And you sit there grinning like an

ape.

>> Well, nephew, you can't win them all.

You win some, you lose some. Now, the

best thing we can do right now is get

the hell out. Change your clothes. We

are French chemists leaving tomorrow for

Paris on SAS. with our tails between our

legs.

>> Nephew, there are worse things to have

between your legs. Now, what happened to

Cosnol's bride?

>> She'll be here soon. 6:30. She knows

what I am.

>> Well, in that case, you better move

fast.

>> She's all right.

>> There's no use taking any unnecessary

chances. You got enough to do. Now, get

those letters you wrote about

Breznovich. Who'd you leave him with?

>> Me, Kyle.

>> Get them and burn them. Go to the

bullshy. Get two balcony seats. If I

don't make it by curtain time, I'll find

you at the first intermission. Get

cracking, nephew.

Yogi.

>> Yogi.

>> Good evening.

>> Who are you?

>> I'm a friend of Yorgis.

Where is he?

>> Well, he's awfully sorry. He couldn't

wait. He had to move fast. But he left

you a note in the other room.

[Music]

[Music]

Huh?

[Music]

My wife came here. Do you remember her?

>> Yes, I do.

>> Who did she come to meet here?

>> No one.

>> No special man.

>> Once. Only once. She left with him.

>> And his name?

>> The man from Prague.

Ask Madam Sophia about comrade.

Hey, I'm going to have me a real good

wash up. Your turn next. Up there,

nephew.

[Music]

[Music]

Is this Yi?

>> Is this Yorgi?

Take your coat off, donkey,

[Music]

and your jacket.

[Music]

Put on the other one.

Let us see how it fits.

[Music]

out.

Better than the other.

[Music]

For how long had you known my wife?

Had she told you it was over? Huh? Had

she taunted you? Did she force you to

gravel?

[Music]

Little by little, I'll mangle your body

until it looks like her dead.

>> All right, Colonel.

That will be all of that.

>> Who are you?

>> I'm a fan of yours. A very old fan.

>> Not a

Stranger,

>> Colonel, that won't do any good. They

have all been sent home.

>> Verizon is behind this.

>> No matter. It's my idea, all mine.

>> I seem to know you.

>> Oh, yes, you know me. The last time our

paths crossed was 20 years ago. It's

taken me all that time to catch up with

you. You're a very hard man to see,

Colonel. I had to go to great lengths.

So you killed her. Colonel, you're so

calm, so logical, so reasonable. I had

to catch you off balance. Took some

doing, but it was worth it. You and I

have a lot of old corpses to dig up and

talk about. Veter for example, Marcel

Mara, Gustav Ze.

It's a long, long list. Colonel, old

friend Howerin, the British agent you

interviewed. I believe it was two weeks

with him. D Silva,

Gotautleb,

Corda, Julian, and finally Pyakov. I

know everything you did to every one of

them. What you put each one of them

through, and if it is possible for one

man to make retribution for the torment

of so many, it will happen. Now go.

>> That I believe is how you started with

Corda. Remember Ze, Colonel? Remember

his scream?

You seem to like to hear a man scream.

Well, Colonel, old friend.

I have a little something for you.

[Music]

>> No, it it isn't. It can't be.

[Music]

Come on, nephew. Hurry up. Got a plane

to catch. You know, I still can't get

over it. First time across and you come

up with all the right answers. Damn

smart of you figuring out that [ __ ]

angle. Though, it is a sorry shame to

lose four good agents on a wild goose

chase. Still, it does make us that much,

the richer.

>> Over $500,000, Richard, to be exact.

>> How can you talk about money?

>> Well, that's what we came into it for.

Which reminds me, now you don't tell me

all of that money is going to rot in

some African bank.

>> $2 million.

Well,

>> ain't there any way at all we can get

our hands on it?

>> Not now. There isn't.

>> Well, you ought have told me

>> before you killed Erica.

>> That's right, nephew.

>> Would it have made any difference?

>> I don't rightly know.

But it surely would have given me pause.

All that money.

>> I know how you like money, but mainly

you came into this to get Cosnorth.

>> Nephew. Didn't anybody ever teach you

that revenge is sweet?

>> Especially sweet to sturdivant.

You're sturdant.

>> Nephew. You're delirious.

>> Janice said he was only waiting like a

lion in a thicket.

>> Well, all wild. Something else I heard

about him is also true. He's a brutal,

sadistic, conscious assassin.

>> Nephew, come over.

[Music]

at all.

>> You're not going, are you?

>> No, nephew. As a matter of fact, I'm

not. I've got a few odds and ends to

tidy up here.

>> You've made a deal with Breivitch,

haven't you? You're the new head of the

third department.

>> Nephew, if that was true, I wouldn't

want anybody on the other side to know

it. You wouldn't be leaving.

>> Yes. Yes, I would. I'm your insurance

policy. You'll keep breast vision line

by reminding him what I know about him.

One word from you and I'll tell the

world. Well, you need me to keep your

Russian job.

>> Nephew, that is mighty smart of you.

You've crowded me right into a corner.

Yes, sir. You have shorthaired me. You

have short-haired me real good. Nephew

Yorgi, you are a downright scoundrel.

>> And to tell Sweet Alice, the criminal

letters in P King,

>> he already knows it, nephew. That's why

I went to Paris. All that about checking

on missing masterpieces. It's a lot of

bushw walk. We couldn't come clean. Eat

all I wanted to pile out. And I have

that unfinished business to tend to.

Come on. I got you a little going away

present.

[Music]

[Music]

We had a hell of a time saving her.

About half the poison got down. She's

paralyzed. Can't talk. But the doctor

says she's going to be all right.

>> What are you going to do with it?

>> Well, now that depends on you.

Long as I got that girl where I can keep

an eye on her, I kind of figure you'll

use a little discretion in what you tell

people about me. I mean, like how

valiantly I died. I mean, how valiantly

Ward died.

>> I'll get her out somehow. I'll get her

out.

>> You know, it's a funny thing, nephew.

I'm kind of proud of you. Sort of like a

father that raised his kid up right

now. You have graduated from

kindergarten with flying colors. You got

one last little thing to do before you

get your diploma. And then as a

graduation present, I will give you the

girl. You better get aboard, Charlie.

Here's your homework.

Maximal 39,000 ft

about 12,000 m.

Time to fast your seat belts now. We

wish you a test.
