That may change the destiny Of our entire organization.

"Week news" magazine is going To do a feature story on us.

They picked us over Eddie fisher, ho chi minh,

And the president's grandson.

Do you think publicity is Such a good idea, chief?

Of course it is.

The cia is in the Newspapers all the time.

and the fbi has its Own television show.

We're the only secret organization in The world that nobody ever heard of.

No pictures will be used And no names at any time.

I cannot impress upon You the importance if this.

a favorable story can Mean recognition for us,

Importance, and an Increased budget.

Now the image we Will have to present

Has to be vigorous, efficient...

Young.

I guess that's the reason For the rug, huh, chief?

I've had this a long time.

I've just not had any Reason to use it before.

Well, what do you Want us to do, chief?

I don't know yet. All I know Is that mr. Fitzmaurice...

He's the man who'll Be writing the article...

Asked that you be here.

- yes? - larrabee: mr. Fitzmaurice is here.

Oh, of course, larrabee. Send him right in.

He's here now. Now, max, Try not to get in his way.

And stop staring!

This way, mr. Fitzmaurice.

My secretary and research Assistant, miss magruder.

How do you do?

Ah...

Paneled, Old-fashioned offices...

Mr. Fitzmaurice, This is agent 99.

Young, raven-tressed 99.

And this is agent 86.

Beady-eyed, black-haired 86.

And I'm the chief.

Middle-aged, uh...

Toupeed chief.

Uh, won't you sit down, sir?

Deep, comfortable couch.

I'm afraid there isn't time.

I'll come straight to the point.

In order to make This story different,

I decided personally

To accompany a team Of control agents

While they're working on the job

From start to finish.

I've studied Hundreds of dossiers

And I've decided on you two.

Well, we're very honored.

Well, we'll see.

Agent 86, we will meet At your apartment

at precisely 9:00 Tomorrow morning.

all of you will give your full Cooperation to miss magruder

In acquiring any Background material.

I thank you.

Miss magruder.

Well max, it looks like the Fate of control is in your hands.

- any questions? - yes, chief.

Are you sure you haven't Got that thing on backwards?

Get out, max.

"Get out." come, on, 99.

You now have in Your possession...

And I trust you have absorbed...

The schedule of maxwell smart's

And 99's activities For tomorrow.

It should be easy to arrange an Ambush and eliminate the two of them.

That's exactly What we do not want.

We're after bigger game...

To eliminate control.

I don't understand.

I spent two years gaining Mr. Fitzmaurice's confidence.

It was I who suggested he do This feature story on control.

If we can make them

And the entire control Organization look foolish,

Mr. Fitzmaurice will write The kind of feature article

That will put control Permanently out of business.

With maxwell smart in charge, What other kind of story can he write?

We cannot depend on Smart's natural stupidity.

We must help it along,

Add to it.

Boris, otto,

As of this moment we commence

"Operation ridiculous."

This doesn't seem like a Very interesting case...

Protecting the foreign minister

Of a neutral country for a day.

You don't understand. Kaos will do anything

To stop that foreign minister from Making that speech tomorrow morning.

Just a moment.

You are about to see Your first demonstration

Of one of control's Unique safety devices.

Now that pipe looks like An ordinary rainspout.

But actually what happens is When you turn this little knob,

It becomes a periscope Which goes up to the roof,

Enabling you to have a bird's-eye View of the entire neighborhood.

- very impressive. - would you like to take a look?

Oh, I should be delighted.

What in the name of...?!

Agent 86!

Well here we are, Mr. Fitzmaurice.

An open car? Isn't That a bit conspicuous?

There is nothing as Inconspicuous as a conspicuous car.

Get in.

It may interest you to know, Mr. Fitzmaurice, that this car is equipped

With every protective Device known to science.

For example, this little button

Activates a .50 caliber Cannon machine-gun.

Sorry about that.

Now this little knob over here

Activates the ejector seat.

Now this knob over here

Activates the smoke screen.

Now this knob over here

Fires the .50 caliber Machine-gun cannon.

Max: well, we made it.

Fitzmaurice: we certainly did.

Mr. Fitzmaurice, what happened?

I met with an accident... Him!

I hope you're not gonna let That little incident in the car

Change your opinion of me.

Oh, it doesn't change It. It merely confirms it.

Max, we met with The foreign minister

And he's willing to Meet with mr. Fitzmaurice.

Miss magruder and I are Going back to the chief's office

To get some more Background information.

Very well, 99. But Be very careful.

The streets don't Seem safe today.

Well, mr. Fitzmaurice, you Are about to see for yourself

The thorough, effective And ingenious methods

By which control protects Those who represent

The forces of Goodness and niceness

In their ever-recurring Battle against the forces

Of evil and badness.

You can use that sentence In your article if you like.

Now as you know, the foreign Minister is here in room 822a.

Now this may look like an Ordinary door to you, but observe.

You open the door.

not this door. That door.

Clever!

False room 822,

False foreign minister,

And...

False window.

False corridor b,

False elevator number one,

False maid...

Not bad, larrabee, but I think you'd do A lot better if you shaved your arms.

And here we have false room 822.

Well!

False room 822a,

False foreign minister b,

And false window c.

False corridor c,

False elevator two,

False maid b, false room 822b.

All seems very effective.

Yes. It's a little hard On room service, though.

Are there any real Rooms on this floor?

Naturally not, because, you See, this is a false eighth floor.

Oh, this is a false Eighth floor?

Yes, the real eighth Floor is on the ninth floor.

Oh, then the floor below This is the seventh floor.

No, you see, we didn't Have room in this building

For the seventh floor so we Put it in the building next door.

Now the building next door Has two seventh floors.

Two seventh floors?

Yes, it's a very Interesting thing to know

In case you ever go there, Which you probably won't,

Because the building next Door is a false building.

The building next Door is a false building?

Yes. Now you see, this is Control's own special floor.

There's only one real room On the whole floor and this is it.

- fantastic! - here, come on.

Well, mr. Fitzmaurice, I hope you see how Brilliantly control protects its friends.

Foreign minister Udano, I'd like you to meet

Mr. Fitzmaurice of "Week news."

How do you do?

Another false foreign minister?

Max: no, a dead one.

Wait a minute.

This man isn't dead. He's unconscious.

At least he's lying down.

It's obvious that He's been drugged.

We'd better get him over to The control lab right away.

They'll know what to do.

What's the matter? Haven't you ever Seen artificial respiration before?

Rather a strange Place for a laboratory.

Yes, it's another one of Control's ingenious hideouts.

You see, our chief scientist, Dr. Steele, is a chorus girl.

Oh.

- wardrobe trunk door. - oh, naturally.

Do you have such a thing as a "Door door" in this organization?

Yes, but it's a window.

Oops.

- dr. Steele, are you decent? - uh-huh.

Have to be careful. Last Time I just walked right in

And she was... You know.

Dr. Steele, here's the patient.

Put him there, please.

Dr. Steele, this is mr. Fitzmaurice Of "Week news" magazine.

- nice to meet you. - how do you do?

Mr. Fitzmaurice, dr. Steele is One of the world's greatest

Experts in the field Of drugs and poisons.

Graduate of stanford, Six years at johns hopkins,

four years at the winthrop Institute of research,

And two years on the Road with "Hello, dolly!"

Well!

He's obviously been Under the influence

Of some powerful drug.

He has to make a speech Before the joint sessions

of congress tomorrow. Will he be all right by then?

If I can't find an Antidote by tomorrow

I'll go back to the Radio city rockettes.

Bring him in here. Easy...

- what happened? - we were talking to him

And he just fell Over at his desk.

he's alive, but we can't Seem to wake him up.

Put him over here, please.

Is this a normal day at control?

Oh, no. The day has just begun.

Uh, what I mean is, Dr. Steele will have them both

Back on their feet in no time.

He's under the influence Of the same kind of drug.

I'd venture to guess It's akin to curare,

only not as deadly.

However, I am sure That I can find an an...

Ti...

Dote.

Dr. Steele! Dr. Steele!

I think I've seen enough Of control in action.

I'm ready to write My feature article.

Come, miss magruder.

Max: one question, Mr. Fitzmaurice...

Will it be a favorable article?

Is he putting me on?

Come, miss magruder.

All right. Well, thank you Anyway, professor stamen.

It's no use, max. Without A sample of the drug,

Professor stamen can't Make an antidote for it.

At this rate they may be Asleep three or four more days.

Max?

Max!

Don't ever do that, 99!

Max, you frightened me. I Thought they had gotten you too.

I was just thinking. I always Think with my eyes shut.

- do you? - yes.

Maybe that's why I had So much trouble in school.

I always knew the right answers

But I could never see Where to write them down.

Oh, max.

99, I know who The kaos agent is.

Who, max, who?

Would you believe...

Ah, come in, 86.

Well, how is the article Coming, mr. Fitzmaurice?

Oh, splendid. Splendid.

- you know, I'm almost finished. - I'm glad to hear that...

Because you're under arrest!

I beg your pardon?

It's really quite simple.

You're a kaos agent and you're Trying to destroy control.

Max, you can't mean that!

Keep out of this, 99. I Know what I'm doing.

Take all this down, Miss magruder.

I might want to Change my article.

I feel I've been a bit too kind.

So you think I'm a Member of kaos, do you?

Now how did you leap To that conclusion?

It's an open-and-shut case.

You had access to all our files.

You were in the room With the foreign minister

And you were in the Room with dr. Steele.

And how do you Explain about the chief?

I was with you all day.

Oh, well, every open-and-shut Case has its loophole.

Uh, but I'm sure there's A connection someplace.

Max, the only two people With the chief this morning

Were miss magruder and I.

Oh. 99, have you had a Security check lately?

Max.

and miss magruder and I Met with the foreign minister.

Miss magruder, may I Borrow your pencil?

Sometimes it's good to get All the facts down on paper.

Please, miss magruder, It's only a pencil!

Max, that's it! That's how she did it!

It's a poison dart Pencil! Put it down!

What is this all about?

Miss magruder used that Pencil to drug the chief

And dr. Steele and The foreign minister.

of course, max suspected her All the time but he had no proof.

Pretending to arrest You was just a clever ruse

To get her to show her hand.

Uh, yes, uh...

Uh, that's exactly Right, what she said.

You see, I suspected Miss magruder all along

But I pretended to arrest you...

Uh, because that was One of those clever ruses

That she was talking about.

All right, miss Magruder, let's go.

Drop your guns.

Is this another one Of my clever ruses, 99?

I'm afraid not, max.

Oh. It would have Been a good one.

We're out in the open now.

Otto, you'll dispose Of these three

where their bodies won't be Discovered for at least a week.

I'll deliver the article To the editor personally.

He'll recognize Your inimitable style,

My dear, stupid mr. Fitzmaurice.

Miss magruder, you've Been a wonderful secretary.

But as of now consider Yourself dismissed

Without severance pay.

Let's go.

Hold it.

Get in.

Get magruder!

Well, I hope you've changed Your mind about us, mr. Fitzmaurice.

I certainly have.

I was very impressed at how Quickly and how efficiently

You rounded up That entire group.

The foreign Minister will be able

To make his speech right On time tomorrow morning.

Once professor stamen Had a sample of the drug,

He was able to make An antidote for it.

I know you will be Pleased that I am writing

A very favorable Article about control.

Perhaps it should go like this:

"Efficient, expert Control once again foils

Nasty, not-so-nice Kaos due to the efforts

Of brilliant, brave agent 86.

Uh, not to mention Nice, neat 99.

And capable, competent chief."

You know, chief,

This is really a pretty Wild contraption.

All you have to do is take this Eraser out and you've got a blowgun.

Ow!

Well, mr. Smart,

I'm afraid you've Made another...

Max!

Now take it easy, chief. Let's look at it this way...

Maybe after a nice Refreshing little nap

He'll find some more nice Things to write about us.
