The deterrence system could be reversed and used as an offensive weapon, as

deadly as the atomic bomb.

But we have no such intention.

I've known Wolfhard for years. He is an evil, power-hungry international

criminal. We must stop him.

Thank you.

Taxi, please.

The university, please.

Is there something wrong, Dr. Fielding?

Wrong?

I... I smelled some kind of odor. A flower or perfume.

Perhaps the municipal garden we've just passed.

Oh, yes, of course.

Where are we going?

To a place where you'll meet old friends.

How delightful.

I have the answer to my problem.

Gentlemen,

Dr. Fielding has arrived on the island.

Dr. Fielding, that's good.

Dr. Schumacher. Welcome.

I can't believe it. Why, the last time we met was... Princeton.

Eight years ago. A symposium conducted by Dr. Raintree.

I've read your brilliant articles since over the years.

Thank you. It's so good to see you both again.

What are we doing here so far from civilization? So close to civilization.

That is what we are here for.

Come, let us show you our laboratory.

You have ever doubted yourself and the meaning of your work, which, at some

time or another, all scientists do.

Here, you will realize a meaning that will exceed your greatest aspirations,

your wildest dreams.

This is where we work about.

We have a few experiments in progress, and there, Elizabeth, is your optics

area.

It's magnificent.

It's absolutely astounding.

This is where I can finish my work in coherent light, solar energy.

Yes, we each have our own work area for our own work program. So that together

we can achieve mankind's greatest aspiration. Thanks to a selfless

humanitarian.

Our benefactor, the world's benefactor.

Who would that be?

Our host, a gentleman named Dr.

Wofat. Welcome, Dr.

Fielding. I am Wofat.

Welcome to our modest scientific facility, dedicated to mankind's

greatest need, peace.

Thank you, Doctor.

Dr. Fritz Schumacher, a German national, University of Heidelberg and Nobel Prize

winner in chemistry.

The upper right, Dr. Sven Lindquist, world famous metallurgist, a Swedish

national. And at the lower left, Dr. Elizabeth Fielding, an American citizen,

also a Nobel Prize winner in physics.

These three scientists, all at the top of their respective fields,

have unaccountably disappeared in the last five weeks, vanished literally off

the face of the earth.

Why three distinguished scientists?

Any answers?

There's one, sir, possibly.

What is it?

We found a common denominator.

Which is?

Eight years ago, these three scientists attended a symposium at Princeton

chaired by Dr. Elton Raintree.

Aha. I see you know the name. Of course.

Since the death of Albert Einstein, Raintree's been considered the world's

foremost theoretical physicist.

That symposium, what was the subject?

Well, one portion of it was a proposal to study the feasibility of an ultimate

missile deterrence system using a sophisticated super laser concept.

No. That's reaching pretty far. Eight years ago, an unpublicized theoretical

study. Yeah, perhaps.

But the three greatest minds in their respective fields working on the problem

might by this time have come close to answers, perhaps now needing only

Raintree to arrive at an integrating concept to complete their work.

You are suggesting, then, that someone or some government might be using them

to perfect a successful deterrence system and that the next disappearance

could be Professor Raintree?

Yes, General.

We'd better put Professor Raintree under some security blanket. And the sooner

the better. Where is he now?

Well, he's under a different kind of blanket at the moment, General, if I

may.

He's in a hospital in Hawaii, recovering from a minor throat operation.

Really?

All three of them disappeared?

That's extraordinary.

But then again, they're extraordinary people.

The situation and circumstances have already been explained to me, Professor.

Tell me, sir, have they been in touch with you lately?

No, no.

No. But you understand that which I claimed at the symposium was

only a theory?

Yes, Professor.

But it dealt with the particular specialties of those three missing

persons, correct?

Yes, that's correct.

I understand that you're a police officer, Mr. McGarrett?

Hawaii Five-0, sir.

Oh, I see.

I've asked Mr. McGarrett to help protect you, Professor.

Your security is doubly important now, to yourself and to your country.

That sofa over there makes into a bed, Mr. McGarrett.

You're welcome to sleep there.

No, I don't think I'll accept your invitation, Professor.

You see, I didn't think I was in any real danger.

Oh, but you are, sir, in imminent danger.

If not for your life, then certainly for your freedom.

But I don't think we want to provide security for you, Professor.

No.

I have a much better idea.

Have no fear. The great Baskin is here.

Hi, Steve.

Billy, good to see you. What's going on? Who is this man? Does he have security

clearance? General Cleese, second.

Steve? No way. No way at all. He is at least three inches shorter than you. He

has a typical Alpine Nordic skull.

You see, it's your cheeks that he... He means me.

Mr. Baskin, not him.

McGarrett, what's going on?

I think the professor's already picked up on it, General.

His nose is different from mine, Mr. Baskin. Yes, I noticed that, Professor.

Thank you very much. Yes.

Ah. Dr.

Allenby, call 2501.

Good. Let me ask you something.

How are we to succeed in this impersonation, Mr. McGarrett?

In a very short time, in the company of scientists, you could easily be

discovered.

Well, listen.

I'll talk.

Besides, I don't expect to carry it off too long, Professor.

What bothers me, McGarrett, is how these scientists are being made to cooperate.

Yes. Yes, obviously, they're being coerced in some way with drugs or

injections of some kind.

Yeah, something that would affect their will to resist, General.

Maybe a suggestion or an order.

but not impair their scientific capabilities.

How are you going to handle that?

I don't know yet. I'm a police officer trying to be an instant scientist.

Pretty risky, McGarrett.

Right. But you've got to break eggs to make an omelet.

Bravo.

General?

Let me try the voice.

Let me... Something like that.

Fascinating.

Good morning, General.

McGarrett?

Did I fool you?

Almost.

What are you reading?

Oh. phoning up on some science, some scientists.

Doctors Fielding, Lindquist, Schumacher.

If they come for me, I want to be able to pull it off, General.

Maybe this will cheer you up.

To Elton with warmest regards.

Albert Einstein rain tree never goes anywhere without it the real watch that

is now We've done me this up to plant a little

homing device Wherever you land if you land try to activate it out in the open.

It's our only guide to you interesting

Good luck professor

Report

from Honolulu sir, holy is ready to proceed and await your go-ahead

Shishi

Professor Aintree?

Yes? My name is Lieutenant Lee.

Orders are to cut you off at the pass.

What does that mean, young man?

You're planning to leave for your home in Connecticut tomorrow morning.

We have a special Air Force jet standing by.

But the brass wants you in Washington immediately.

Brass?

What brass?

Joint Chiefs don't exactly confide in Second Lieutenant, sir.

Oh.

Of course, I see.

I'll help you with your things.

Fine.

This is the way to the airport, Lieutenant.

Is something wrong, Professor?

Peculiar odor of some sort.

Did you notice it? A perfume like a flower?

Not really, Professor, but this is Hawaii.

You didn't smell anything out of the ordinary, did you?

No, I guess not.

I guess not. Where are we going?

To a private airfield, Professor.

You don't mind, do you?

No, no, not at all.

Where did you say we were going?

To join some old friends, Professor.

How delightful.

Professor Rintree, His Excellency, Dr. Wolfe Fatt.

How do you do, sir?

Forgive me, Professor.

It's that I'm so deeply honored.

Oh, flatter me.

Doctor, you must forgive my voice. I had a recent throat operation.

Yes, Honolulu General Hospital. I understand.

An excellent staff there. Do you agree, sir?

Professor, I asked, do you agree?

Yes, of course.

Good.

Your colleagues are quite anxious to see you, but right now they're all at work.

And I suspect that you will want to freshen up.

So we'll all meet in the study in an hour.

Is that convenient, sir?

Yes, of course.

Whatever you say.

Good.

The professor will be joining us momentarily.

Needless to say, he's quite excited at the prospect of seeing you all again.

Welcome.

Dr. Schumacher.

Dr.

Lindquist. This is a happy moment, Professor.

Dr. Feely.

I'm so happy to see you again.

How are you?

I've been very well, thank you, Elton.

Professor, Ho has explained to you who is here, but not why.

I've reserved that pleasure until now. Please.

Thank you. Thank you.

Here are some elements connected with an anti-missile deterrent system.

Familiar to you, Professor?

Oh, yes.

Princeton, uh, eight years ago.

Symposium which all of my colleagues were in attendance.

You are quite correct, Professor.

But there is more.

Dr. Lindquist.

I have perfected the metal ally sword, Professor.

Wonderful. But what about the problem of heat containment, Professor Raintree?

Enormous. Absolutely enormous.

Dr. Schumacher.

Experiments with the chemical ferment inside the system have been completely

successful.

Bravo, Professor.

Indeed. We require only a completion ratio to 85%. Right, Dr. Fielding?

Correct. I have discovered that improving the efficiency ratio to 85%

creates a light ray capable of burning a city to a crisp, as well as destroying,

failsafe, any and all incoming ballistic missiles.

Dr. Fielding, please explain to the Professor what our intentions are here.

Of course.

If the elements of this study can be put together by you, Elton, the anti-missile

deterrent will be used in a purely defensive mode.

Of course. We have no intentions of burning any cities. Oh, my goodness,

certainly not.

I hope you believe us, Professor.

It's just that I'm so deeply involved, so concerned.

If I do complete these experiments and do correlate these elements, the

deterrent system could be reversed and used as an offensive weapon, as deadly

as the atomic bomb.

True. But we have no such intentions.

You must believe that, Professor.

Yes, I must.

Without a doubt.

Without a doubt.

Dinner, sir.

At your pleasure.

Ah, my friends.

Come, we will continue this discussion at the table.

Elizabeth.

Oh, thank you.

After you. No, no, doctor, you first. I insist.

The parameters of the experiment are quite stringent.

Plus or minus three degrees Kelvin.

It's so good to have Elton with us. Oh, when did Professor Raintree last receive

his compliance ration?

in the limousine on the way to the plane in honolulu sir that's almost twelve

hours ago give him a double amount to-night ho he

seems to be resisting subconsciously

Thank you.

Thank you.

Coffee, sir. Tea, please.

Ah, professor.

I see you're an early riser. Good morning, doctor.

You look refreshed.

Had you a restful night?

Oh, yes. Thank you.

You slept like a babe.

Oh, doctor.

Oh, Dr. Fielding. Good morning.

Good morning.

Uh, just coffee, please. Black this morning.

You seem disturbed, doctor.

Well, I didn't sleep very well last night.

Is there something on your mind, Dr. Finley?

I was thinking about what the professor said.

How the deterrence system could be used as a weapon, an ultimate weapon.

You see, that's something that's always worried me.

Governments misusing scientific discoveries.

Ah, but this morning you have complete faith in Arden.

Tensions and goals, right?

Yes.

All my worries are vanishing this morning, now that you mention it.

Of course.

But we are not governments.

We are individuals dedicated to peace, the peaceful uses of science.

Yes, of course.

And you, Professor?

My intentions are to have a hearty breakfast.

How nice.

But I meant, have you any doubts about our being engaged here in helping

mankind?

I never had any doubts about your intentions, Doctor.

None whatsoever.

Ah, it's a tropical paradise here, wouldn't you agree, Dr. Raintree?

Most assuredly, Doctor.

Most assuredly.

Oh, what's in here?

Laboratory? No, no, the laboratory is something special.

A marvelous complex located in an isolated area of the island.

This, as you can see, is nothing in your line, Professor.

Just security.

Here we can block, scramble, and distort any signal coming into or going from the

island.

You think of everything, Doctor.

One has to.

We are overseers of a tremendously hopeful but dangerous instrument.

We wouldn't want it falling into the wrong hands, would we?

Certainly not.

This is the laboratory, Professor.

A place where ideas, theories become reality.

Where aspirations, visions, dreams, if you will, come to life.

Impressive. Most impressive, Doctor.

Thy time in.

Thank you.

Good morning, doctors. Dr. Fielding will have the solarizer ready this morning,

and then we can show you a working unit with an 85% efficiency ratio.

Oh, marvelous.

Looking for 95%, Professor.

What do you say to that?

I say we shall soon see how theory translates into substance.

You must be anxious to get at your preparatory work.

Perhaps later now.

I would like to be by myself for a while. I have some thinking to do.

Ah, splendid.

Ah, lovely.

Lovely. Gentlemen.

The island is yours, Doctor.

Thank you.

Thank you, Doctor.

Dr. Fielding?

Eldon. Still so formal.

I expected it in front of the others, but here we're alone.

Been eight long years, Elizabeth.

Two people who were on such intimate terms.

Who are you?

You know who I am.

Elizabeth.

Please.

Listen.

Why are you impersonating him?

Where is he?

Is he safe?

Yes.

Yes.

Professor Raintree is safe. I am impersonating him, but with his

knowledge and consent.

Now, there is national security involved here.

Elizabeth, please, trust me.

Will you answer a few questions?

No. Please, Elizabeth, I beg you, hear me out.

You did not come to this island of your own free will. You realize that?

No, but that was explained to me.

The work we're doing here is very important. The work is not what you

think it is.

Haven't you noticed that your will to resist, to protest, even to ask

questions has been affected? Haven't you noticed that?

I hadn't even thought about that.

Don't you feel that you want to agree with everything Wofat says?

Think about it.

Questions which start in your mind in the evening disappear entirely in the

morning.

That's exactly what happened this morning.

But why?

How? At night, when we're asleep, all four of us are treated with some sort

of visible gas. I have no idea what it is.

It comes in through a ventilator.

I stopped it.

And that's why I'm not affected today.

But why would Wofat want to do that?

It's simple.

To delude us.

To keep us thinking we're working to benefit mankind, when in reality, it is

Wofat solely who will be benefited.

How do you know all this?

I've known Wofat for years.

He is an evil, power-hungry international criminal.

That's why I'm here. We must stop him.

Now, if you scientists complete that anti-missile device, he will use it in

his own way.

As a weapon for extortion, for profit. Never for peaceful purposes. Never.

Oh, no.

No, I don't believe you. Please.

I don't believe that.

I'm here at the risk of my life.

If I've touched any cord in you, think about it.

Think it through.

Dr. Fielding, what is wrong?

I'm picking up the signal now, Lieutenant.

It's very scratchy, sir.

Okay. We need another point for triangulation.

Can't seem to focus on it, sir.

Must be some kind of lightning storm.

I'll keep trying, sir.

All along, I felt something was amiss.

Well, your masquerade and fruitless effort is over.

My denouement is inevitable and will be traditional.

Execution at dawn.

It will allow you time through the longest night of your being to ruminate

on your sins, McGarrett.

And allow me to cherish the inexorable lowering of the final curtain on your

sometimes brilliant but pathetically misguided life.

Take him away!

Not allowed, won't you?

Oh.

Bring him to me.

Hurry,

hurry! Go, Kai!

Good shot.

Well, you were right about everything. I told Inquist and Schumacher.

Elizabeth, go to them as soon as you can. Get them away.

Hide anywhere.

Where are you going?

The lab.

I've got to sabotage it while I'm still alive.

Come on.

He will go to the laboratory.

Call the guard.

You hide off!

Thank you.

Well, you called it Wofat, huh?

A traditional ending, you said.

A fitting end, McGarrett.

Through a dozen adventures which have had no resolution, we come now to the

final act of this, this morality play.

Morality play?

Morality had nothing to do with your crimes, Wofat.

Nor were they play acting.

They were deadly and real.

You'll not get off this island, McGarrett. Oh, yes.

Yes, I will.

Help is on the way.

A desperate ploy.

No ploy, Wofat.

No ploy. I sent out a homing signal.

Our relay stations must already have tracked this position and sent help.

You lie.

Lie?

Oh, how I relish this, your last moment, McGarrett.

Now I shall have the pleasure of killing you with my bare hands.

You hear that?

That's a U.S. helicopter.

I've waited a long time for this warfare.

Now I'm going to have the unique pleasure of booking you myself.

Get up.

Aloha.
