A pigeon!

Look, you've had it smack on the head.

I like that.

I saw it coming, deliberately aimed at it.

I knew I was good, but not that good.

Look, Norman, it's a carrier.

That should give us the name and address of the sender.

What does he say?

Room 605, Park Plaza Hotel, reserved in your name.

Await contact, 8 o 'clock tonight.

Act according to instructions.

Doesn't that give you a kick?

A message speeding through the air, straight from the...

Oh, Norman, you'll see something very dramatic in his menu.

This is no menu, sweetheart.

And has the receiver ever got it?

He won't be there.

Won't be where?

Park Plaza Hotel, Room 605, 8 o 'clock tonight.

But I won't.

Thank you, sir.

24.

Six -four, please.

Right, sir.

What are you so excited about?

Well, I'm waiting for the second leg of my double to come out, sir.

Get good odds in the first round.

Didn't win.

I'll be back in a minute.

I'll be back in a minute.

I'll be back in a minute.

I don't think I'm going to be able to do that.

I'm in the habit of waiting behind doors.

Sometimes.

But now that you're here, you may as well be comfortable.

I mustn't stay more than a minute.

A minute?

That's ridiculous.

Don't you sit down?

I have not come here to sit down.

Of course.

What did you come here for?

Your passage from New York was a smooth one, I hope.

Ah, not too smooth.

That was a...

Nasty gale in that Atlantic Is anything wrong have I said something I shouldn't

Your passes from New York were the smooth when I help I'm sorry.

I know I should give a snappy reply to that But as I said, it was pretty rough.

I got hit on the head and I forgotten the answer Betty Does it matter?

You're here and I'm here.

There can't be any mistake All right,

if there is no mistake you have something for me Have I oh, there's no hurry.

Let's get better acquainted.

But I'm in a hurry.

Where is it?

Give it to me You haven't even told me your name Must be a very nice one.

You are foolish, you know, you're stalling.

I do not like this Where is the money?

Give it to me.

I've got to go.

I'm sorry.

Beautiful.

I'm just as cautious as you are.

I Didn't bring the money.

I Thought we'd better have a little Chant first before don't move Don't try and

fool me with that toy pistol.

This is no time.

I'll take a chance on that Oh Hello kept as waiting Where have you been and

those clothes you're wearing as a member of our trade delegation,

how do you get such ideas?

There's a pleasure seeking enough.

You found now Dina's a good And her father was one of the heroes of the

revolution.

Why talk like this?

Do we dine and dance tonight or not?

It is not wise.

The Gregor of the secret police saw us.

Gregor!

Gregor!

Who is Gregor?

Mr.

Gregor, for Mr.

Boris Vroff.

Very good, sir.

Mr.

Vroff, please.

Mr.

Gregor has called, sir.

Very good, sir.

Mr.

Vroff says, will you please go straight up?

It's suite 600 on the sixth floor.

Gregor's on his way up.

Now, Dina, you had better leave us.

Now, what can you want?

Good evening, Gregor.

We are pleased to...

I have to inform you that you are both under arrest.

Why?

What is the charge?

Arrested?

Why are we to be arrested?

Orders.

Where's Nadina Rodin?

I'm sure you do not want to resist our government.

There are three men downstairs.

You will have to answer to our chief.

He was shot this morning.

The entire staff of the Traits Bureau is affected.

You're all being sent back for an inquiry.

You know what that means?

It is not necessary for me to go into any details at this moment.

My orders are to put your...

Are you mad?

I would be mad if I let him arrest us, but he's only stunned,

so we must be quick.

How can we escape from this hotel?

Leave it to me.

I've been prepared for something like this.

What about the men downstairs?

The men downstairs.

Forget the men downstairs.

Come on, get ready.

Hurry.

We will give him another five minutes.

Who looked at me?

I don't know, but something has happened.

Don't touch that phone.

Why?

Is anything wrong?

He's dead.

What?

You have killed him.

Oh, no.

That's impossible.

But you only stunned him.

Now we shall be hunted by the English police, as well as our own.

Someone has done this to us.

Come on, we must get away quickly.

Wait a minute, I've got an idea.

Bring Gregor and follow me.

Are you out of your mind?

I know what I'm doing, but hurry up.

Come on.

Come on.

Yes.

Who is this man?

I don't know, but he is going to be arrested for the murder of Gregor.

This is my plan.

Eva, you ring up Scotland Yard.

Go to Park Plaza Hotel.

Man reports being attacked in room 605.

Over.

Message received.

We're on our way over.

Hey, Harry, he can have it.

Turn off that blooming disc jockey.

I've had enough for one day.

Park Plaza straight ahead, sir.

So's my dinner.

Let Harry go to the Park Plaza.

George, call an ambulance for me, will you?

Sorry, sir.

Good evening, sir.

What's your trouble, Colonel?

A man's fallen from the sixth floor of the Park Plaza, sir.

Oh, murder.

There goes my chocolate and onions.

What room number did Control say?

605, sir.

All right, show.

All right, sir.

We'll handle it.

Superintendent Williams, Scotland Yard.

Who's the occupant of room 605?

Well, Mr.

Atwell.

Is there anything wrong, sir?

Oh, no.

Somebody's just been pushed out or fallen out of the window at 605?

605.

But there's no one in 605.

It's reserved for Mr.

Reynolds.

He hasn't yet arrived.

I'm going up.

You'd better come with me.

Conquest.

Oh, no.

Oh, I might have known this had happened.

Why didn't I mind my own business?

I said I'd had enough for one day.

Bill, where did you spring from?

What's this all about?

You're drunk.

Not drunk, Bill.

A little dopey here.

There's no defense.

Yes, sir.

Yes, there is.

I may be a little dopey, but not with alcohol.

I'm not pie -eyed.

I'll make a special note of this.

I've been drugged.

Oh, blimey.

What have I done to deserve you?

There must be a curse on me.

Any time it's something particularly unpleasant and you're involved in it,

I'm a mug that's bound to be dragged in.

Will you stand still?

I am standing still!

Conquest, now, what have you been up to?

Come on out, talk, and talk sense.

Talk sense?

Bill be reasonable.

I can't even think.

What I need is some coffee.

Now, look, if you're storing conquest, I advise you to cut it out.

A man was killed in this room a few minutes ago by falling out of that window.

And you must have been here.

Say that again?

You heard me.

A man fell out of that window and you were in this room.

I guess I must have been, because I'm only just getting back into circulation.

This window?

Yes.

A man fell out of that window.

It's a long way to the pavement, Bill.

He was killed instantly.

That's a very clever bit of deduction.

Yes.

Amazing.

What do you know about a man called Reynolds?

Reynolds?

Oh, Sir Joshua, great...

Now, look here, I can't question...

All right, Bill, all right.

I never heard the name before.

I believe you're Mr.

Reynolds.

It's just one of your phony names.

Shut those doors, Sergeant.

I don't know what your game is, but this time it's something pretty smelly.

Why didn't you go to the desk in the ordinary way?

Wait a minute, Bill.

A little slow.

I didn't get that.

They told me down at reception that Reynolds hadn't booked in.

Don't blame me.

It was the girl.

What girl?

The blonde.

Oh.

It's a racing certainty to be a blonde in the game if you're mixed up in it.

Bill, I fell for the oldest gag in the world.

What gag?

If you...

Stop barking at me.

I'll try to tell you how I came to be in this room and meet the girl.

All right.

So there's a blonde.

Where is she?

I was afraid you were going to ask me that.

What is this place?

Where I'll be?

My flat, of course.

I told you I've taken precautions.

There's only one or two people who know me here.

I told them that I was a dancer and that I occasionally dance in London.

But I like to have a little place of my own.

All very simple, my friend.

You told her there's nothing of this.

Of course.

Oh, come on, take off your coat.

Make yourself comfortable.

I make a little coffee.

We have an awful lot to talk about.

And after asking me a question,

a sort of password and not getting the right reply,

she pulled a trick gun and squirted a Mickey Finn in my face.

Oh, turn it up.

What do you think you are, Hans Anderson?

I assure you it's the truth, pure and unadulterated.

If you want to know more, find the blonde.

I believe this whole thing's your own tarradiddle.

My what?

Uh, tarradiddle.

You made it up yourself.

Oh.

I want to know your real reason for coming in here.

I want to know who that man is and how he came to fall out of that window.

Well, that makes two of us.

I must have been out for the better part of an hour.

Look, Mr.

Williams, the superintendent, doesn't believe my story about the blonde.

I'm pretty certain she occupies a room on this floor.

You should know.

She's foreign, expensively dressed, and hits you smack...

It must be...

It must be Miss Rodin.

Rodin?

Could be.

Who's she?

She's a member of the trade delegation.

The secretary's one of the delegates in suite 600.

I mustn't have any trouble with them, you know.

You see, Bill, if only you'd have a little more faith in me...

You shut up!

All right, Mr.

Er...

Er, two T's, two O's, and two L's.

All right, you can go.

Mr.

Williams?

Yes.

May I have a word with you, sir?

Yeah, sure.

Come on.

There's something queer, sir.

A police surgeon asked me to tell you the poor devil was dead before he fell

from the window.

I always know so much.

How does he know?

Something to do with the bleeding.

How?

Well, conquest, this is going to settle you, chum.

That man was dead before he fell from that window.

And as for you being doped, anybody can fight that kind of act.

I hope you realize what you're implying.

What do you want me to do?

Confess to murder?

I always said one day you'd go too far.

You came here to see this man.

You threatened him with something.

He grabbed the telephone, got through to Scotland Yard and shot it for help.

Then you had a fight and killed him.

Did I?

Yes.

I don't say you did it deliberately, but when you finally was dead,

you went over to the window and fight the struggle.

Hold on a minute while I try to follow your tortuous reasoning.

I threatened this guy.

Yes.

He got scared.

Yes.

Grabbed the phone.

Yes.

Called Scotland Yard.

That's right.

What was I doing in the meantime, holding his hand?

How do I know?

Oh, Bill, be yourself.

I told you, I don't believe you did it deliberately.

That's mighty decent of you.

After that, instead of sliding off the open spaces,

I stayed here in this room and waited until you came in for me.

Can't you see your whole theory is pure nonsense?

All I know is that a dead man was thrown out of that window while you were in

this room.

Now, can you or can't you tell me who he is?

No.

Hi, Ken, sir.

Hi.

You knew him well.

Name of Gregor.

Gregor?

I knew him well.

Trade's delegation, sir.

Trade's delegation?

Oh, what a lovely mess.

Conquest?

I'm arresting you on a charge of complicity, get that?

In the murder of the man Gregor.

And I warn you that anything you see...

Unless we can find a way to South America or some such place,

we might as well be rats in a trap.

We'll get there.

Don't worry.

Anything is possible.

It's money.

It's money, but matters.

Come, I'll show you something.

There was 50 ,000 English pounds.

Where did you get these, Nagina?

Have they been found for you?

But they haven't.

We enjoy diplomatic immunity of the customs.

Is it?

Who?

Who gave them to you?

A certain gentleman of our foreigners.

He likes money as much as we do.

They are his, then?

No.

Look, it's like this.

He is working for Baron von Henchl of the Gestapo.

The diamonds were looted by the Baron from Rotterdam,

and I was going to give them to his agent.

But that is nonsense.

Von Henchl is dead.

You will say next that Hitler is dead.

Look, I'm only repeating what I'm told.

This man from the foreign office assures me that he is in contact with the

Baron.

Where is he?

Who knows?

But this von Henchl has collected a big fortune for himself in this country.

Now, my contact had these diamonds for over a year.

Then he passed them on to me.

To bring them to the island.

I was to meet Baron von Henschel's agent and receive a thousand pounds from my

work.

Something went wrong.

But now I have other ideas.

Perhaps we can art with this agent and obtain possession of the whole of Baron

von Henschel's fortune.

Now, why couldn't I go home and mind my own business?

You mean conquest, sir?

Yes, conquest.

Every time he gets involved in a case, the yard pushes it under me.

Why?

Why me?

He's looked on as your pigeon.

Pigeon?

Don't you talk to me about Pigeon's.

Anyway, we got him under arrest.

How long do you think we'll hold him this time?

I don't know.

I've been dreaming about it every night for months, for years.

Getting him on a serious charge of making it stick.

Excuse me, Sir Lieutenant.

This is Mr.

Barkoff from the Embassy.

Waffenburgen, where are they?

Who?

The people Gregor came to see.

Now he is dead.

Where are they?

It's the first time I've heard of them.

I can tell you about them, sir.

They're residents here, sir.

They're residents of their members of the trade delegation, I suppose, Father.

Well, they better go and see their room.

You must find Boris Roffe, Van Boghin, and Adjuna Rojan.

Here, excuse me.

Yes, sir.

Every sign of a hurried departure.

Yes, I see it.

While everything is confusion, they escape.

Looks very much like it, sir.

They kill poor Gregor and walk out of the hotel.

Hello.

One moment, sir.

I don't think we need to keep you any longer, sir.

We'll do what we can to find them.

If you just give the inspector the descriptions and the photographs,

he can go now.

Good night.

This way, sir.

Williams here, sir.

I've just had four phone calls from the Embassy.

They want the body at once.

They want the murderers at once.

And they want a full explanation, also at once.

Where are those trade -delegate fellows?

Well, they can't have gone far, sir.

We're circulating descriptions.

Says he knows nothing about it.

Says he came here as a sort of joke to meet a girl.

I don't believe a word of it.

Look here, Williams.

You mustn't let your prejudices against Conquest affect your judgment.

I can't see him mixing himself up in this sort of thing.

It's not his line of country at all.

Have another talk with him.

I will, sir.

He's down at the West End Station, sir.

Shall I let him go, sir?

This business is far more important than your feud with Conquest.

We've got to find those two men.

Ambergill.

Keep in touch.

Yes, of course, sir.

As a matter of fact, sir, I was...

Hello?

Hello?

Hello?

What the dick is you mean by clapping Norman in irons?

Of all the stupid things to do.

Charging him with murder.

If you can't compete, you mad?

Listen, Pixie.

I didn't want to arrest him.

I had to.

All the evidence pointed that way.

What evidence?

What was he doing in this hotel?

What do you know about all this?

Will you stand still?

It's not me.

It's you.

It's not me.

All I've heard is a man was killed, and you've arrested Norman for it.

I haven't.

Keep that door locked.

I arrested him for being concerned in it,

giving me some wonderful story about a contact in room 605,

and a ball of trouble in the wall,

something about killing a pigeon with a golf ball.

What do you want me to do?

Kiss him?

Oh, blimey.

Go on.

Oh, I don't know.

I've heard some stories in my life, but he comes out with some stuff.

He ought to get an Oscar.

You can't blame me for not believing it.

Why?

Pigeons do carry messages?

Yes, but not about beautiful girls they don't.

Oh?

Which girls?

Only one.

Nadina Rodin.

Who's she?

Who's she?

The contact.

When she found out he was the wrong bloke, she put him out.

Put him out?

Drugged him.

Only slightly.

No ill effects when he came round.

I'm afraid.

Still, it's nice to know you can slip up sometimes.

Have you seen this girl?

No.

Do you know what she's like?

No.

Know what she's like?

Oh, yes.

She's, uh...

She's got a figure like a...

like a silk.

That's it.

And, uh...

Dancing blue eyes.

And, uh, blond hair.

All glistening.

Well, that's how conquest described her.

Little smasher, he said.

Oh, he...

he did, did he?

Oh.

For him, please.

Full of sex appeal.

I'm not surprised he fell for her.

Pixie, why don't you take him away somewhere?

Somewhere where he can't get interested in blondes.

Cuba, for example.

Watch closely.

It's, um...

It's as easy as, uh...

this.

Now you try.

Oh, so you've finally come.

Thank you, sweetheart, for getting things moving.

You can go, conquest.

Is that all?

All right.

I apologize.

Even if you didn't get it, I'm sorry.

Tell me the truth.

About the blond.

Oh, yes, Norman.

The little smasher.

What have you been telling her, Bill?

Only that you were in that room with her.

Alone.

What do you mean by that?

What could I mean?

Well, when a guy gets fresh, when he's lying spread -eagled on the floor,

drugged.

You didn't know she was going to attack you.

You thought you were going to have some fun, didn't you?

You two are going to fight, you'd better go outside.

What are you doing, Constable?

Nothing, sir.

Oh, really?

To be fair, to get him out of here,

take it far away where he can't interfere in this gregal business.

Cuba, for example?

With all the blondes, the bromettes.

That's right.

I'm having enough trouble finding your girlfriend's boyfriends.

What boyfriend?

Well, we have reason to believe that they're...

Uh, getting cautious, Bill?

We have reason to believe that gregal was killed by your blonde and her two

compatriots.

Now get out of my head and stop interfering.

That's the last thing I intend to do.

Their whole idea was to involve me in a messy murder.

I go after people like that.

You just watch and see how I keep out of it.

You want to meet that girl again?

Correct, sweetheart.

And when I do see her, I'm going to put her over my knee and smack her.

Mm -hmm.

And as for the boyfriends who tried to festoon the murder wrapper on my neck,

I'm going to switch on the limelight, a whole cluster of limelight.

Now, if you start interfering and have...

Hey, bring them.

I'm going to help them.

The more publicity, the better.

You reckless young idiot.

Oh, uh, Superintendent.

Thanks for that young business.

Is a conquest, Mr.

Reynolds?

A beautiful girl wanted for murder, foreign crooks in hotel drama.

No one conquest arrested.

Breakfast is ready, Mr.

Feather.

I'd have to do without breakfast this morning, Mrs.

Pottle.

Ah!

But you must have some breakfast, sir.

I must go to London.

A consignment of orchids has gone astray from Brazil.

I must leave immediately.

I'm going to have to go to London.

What are you doing here?

I thought we weren't to contact each other.

These speak for themselves.

What happened to my message?

What message?

What's this to do with me?

Yesterday, I sent you a message in the usual way,

telling you where and when to collect a certain package.

You're in doubt of pigeon post.

I always did think that.

You're not paid to think.

In your own interest,

I suggest you adopt a different attitude to the problem confronting us,

especially if you wish to secure your own future.

You're not paid to look after that stuff upstairs.

You'll have no reason to complain as soon as this job is over.

And don't forget, Mr.

Schell isn't likely to appreciate the attentions of conquest.

That's the worst of working for gents.

You leave it on me.

I'll take care of Mr.

Conquest.

That will not be necessary.

We must get that package back before Mr.

Schell leaves tonight, but we don't want any trouble of that sort.

They search for us.

Our secret police and North Scotland Yard.

How long can we remain undiscovered?

Already we are lost.

And she sings.

You take notice of all that printed nonsense.

They are groping helplessly.

Oh, they would have been here long before now.

Here we are safe.

What are you doing in there, Nadina?

Preparing to go out.

To go out?

Without the London police looking for you.

Here in the papers you photograph.

The first policeman you meet.

Look at me.

Do you think they recognize us?

Well, perhaps not.

Unfortunately, you must be idle for a while.

But I've got a lot to do.

Now, this conquest seems to be quite famous.

Quite a reputation.

He puzzles me.

Now, why was he in that room?

And why does it say obtain the valuable package from me when it is true?

Well, it's of no importance.

Oh, but you are wrong.

I'm going to find out how this Mr.

Compose is involved.

I must know.

And Boris.

Who cares?

Anything went wrong.

I'll leave them with you.

But Nadina.

I only said, in case anything went wrong.

Why are you staring at me like that?

Am I so different in this short hair?

Yes.

And a better citizen.

Do you want more?

Please help.

45, Eastview terrace.

Please give me this.

This is my taxi.

I'm very uncomfortable.

Well, did you see her again?

It far?

You might have asked me.

Chancy, aren't you?

Hi, Eddard.

Honestly, you do talk.

Anyone might come back.

I'll catch Marco.

Yes?

What do you want?

If I take this to Scotland Yard, there would have been a reward for it.

All right, Cap.

Thanks, Robert.

I'll take it.

Yes, sir?

Mr.

Nolan Conquest.

What name, sir?

Smith.

Mr.

John Smith.

Mandy.

See you at that, Israel.

Mr.

Paul Smith.

Conquests apartment.

There's a mr.

John Smith to see mr.

Conquest just one moment Here there's a bloke called John Smith to see you go.

Oh, mr.

John Smith Huh?

Mandy this is it heaven sent right up.

There's nothing I like better than to meet any of the ubiquitous Smith's Then

mr.

Ubiquitous Smith up, please The lift mark privacy just press the button Oh Yes,

how nice to see you mr.

Smith What can I do for you?

My business is confidential.

Oh Mandy go and do something useful.

Will you?

Won't you sit down?

Thank you, no.

I apologize for this bluntness, Mr.

Conquest, but last night at the Park Plaza Hotel,

you came into possession of a package to which you have no right.

A package?

And if I did?

I must ask you to return it to me, please.

Why should I?

Assuming, of course, that I have it.

Threats are distasteful to me, Mr.

Conquest, but I am very anxious to have that package back.

Tell me...

Excuse me.

Hello.

This is Conquest.

I don't know what the whole business is about, Governor,

but I just dropped a young lady in a gented...

Oh, that's wonderful news.

Is everything all right?

What is it, a boy or a girl?

What's it?

No, he said a girl, and it...

And now you're not a nursing ember, profit us.

Fine.

When your passing conquest court come in and pick up a box of cigars.

Okay, fine.

Funny how far the one was once a daughter and a mother, a son.

Now, where were we, Mr. Smith

I was saying that threats are distasteful to me, Mr.

Conquest, but I must insist that you give me that package.

As you're so concerned about it,

perhaps you would be good enough to tell me what's in it.

I see you intend to leave me no option.

Where is your fiancé?

Out shopping.

I regret to say that she is not.

No.

Then where is she?

That I do not intend to tell you,

but I assure you she will come to no harm so long as you are sensible.

Sensible?

No, but I'm never sensible.

Hey, Mandy, fancy thinking you could get away with a corny trick like that.

Don't be a fool, Conquest.

What good will it do you?

You don't know where your fiancé is.

Maybe not.

But I intend trying 45 Heathfield Terrace.

Just jump, jump.

Uh, sir, I mean?

Lock him up.

I'll be back later.

And remember, no violence.

Come on.

It was something.

Furry your butt.

That's John Smith.

Well, well, well.

I must say you choose the oddest shopping companions and not even a blonde at

that.

What was it you said to me about having fun and games?

What have you been doing?

Oh, so you won't talk, huh?

What's all that noise about?

Oh, you heard?

Oh, let me see.

Oh, serious, very serious.

Now, Signorina Pixie, the brunette from Cuba.

To what do you attribute your present condition?

I'll tell you.

You always want to go out on these capers with me and you see what happens.

You know,

I believe the only way I can keep you safe is to leave you just like that.

Oh, well, I won't let you be lonely.

I'll bring your boyfriend to you.

Excuse me.

There.

That'll keep you out of mischief for a while.

Now, tell me, who's the boss of this outfit?

It's no use asking him questions.

He's practically dumb.

What do you mean, practical?

He is completely.

There's one thing about being with you, Norman.

Life is full of good, clean, wholesome fun.

That's right, sweetheart.

Oh!

Shut up.

I don't think I'm going to be able to get out of here.

This package the girl smothered into the country is some kind of document.

Oh, no, sweetheart.

Mandy, bring in Mr.

Smith.

This game's money, big money,

and the package that blonde has contains something very valuable.

These foreigners are small -time crooks working under orders.

Reynolds and the man who called this afternoon are the English end.

Thanks for watching.

By concentrating on them, we'll find out who's at the top.

I don't think you'll get me, where, Norman?

If I were you, I'd let the whole thing drop.

Mr.

John Smith, sir.

And here she is, back again.

All right, conquest, you win.

What are you going to do now?

Oh, that depends.

I could call the police, and believe me,

your friend Reynolds would spill plenty.

However, I intend to deal with you myself.

That is kind of you.

Not at all.

Now, let's see what your real name is.

Oh, careless, very careless.

You shouldn't carry this in your pocket.

You're obviously not a professional.

Now, let's see.

Mr.

Theodore Feller, address High Barn, Stoke Bramley, Essex.

I will take the liberty of borrowing your keys, Mr.

Feller.

Feller.

Haven't I heard about you in connection with something thoroughly respectable?

Feller.

Orchids.

You're the grow of the finest orchids in the country, that's it.

Allow me to congratulate you.

Yeah, orchids is lovely.

Look here, conquest, every man has his price.

I'll give you £1 ,000 to forget all about this.

Check in feed, Mr.

Feller.

No, wait.

I'll make it £5 ,000.

So help me, I'm untouched.

Nevertheless, nothing to him.

Put him back into cold storage.

Come on, Mr.

Smits.

Keep Feller locked up until I get back.

Aren't you rather sticking your chin out, going down there all alone?

Oh, I don't know.

I might stumble onto something.

I wish you'd let me come with you.

Some other time, sweetheart.

Bye -bye.

Thanks for watching!

I'll be right back.

I'll be right back.

Yes?

Mr.

Schell speaking.

Where the devil have you been, fella?

Oh, um, I had to go out.

This is important.

I will be with you in less than an hour.

You will be in, and you will be alone.

Hello?

Hello?

Hello?

Put up the hands.

The term I believe is, Reach for the ceiling.

Be careful with that thing.

I've had one dose of it already.

Oh, no, Mr.

Congress.

This one has bullets in it.

You make one step towards me and I'll shoot.

Bullets?

Mm -hmm.

Then, um, I'm not frightened.

Load two.

Dangerous little devil, aren't you?

Let me go!

Oh, let me go!

Let me go!

I promised myself that pleasure at our next meeting.

You hurt me.

No gentleman does such things to a lady.

No, that's over.

I'd like to ask you a straight question.

Just what is your game?

I won't tell you.

You hit me.

You're my enemy.

Well, that's as good a start as any.

Let's kiss and be friends.

Hmm.

You know, I have the nicest ideas.

Nobody has ever spanked me and kissed me like this before.

Well, you asked for this panking.

And you asked for the kissing.

I'm glad I did.

I hope there are no strings attached.

Strings?

Who knew?

There aren't any strings attached.

We sit together, yes?

Why not?

Thank you.

This is very pleasant.

Making ourselves comfortable in Mr.

Feather's house, it'll pass the time until Mr.

Schell arrives.

Oh.

So you know Mr.

Schell?

No, no, no.

But...

It's a funny name.

Tell me, why did you get in the back of my car?

Well, you are interesting.

I read many things about you in newspapers.

I like the way you snap fingers at the low.

You are brave.

I like that.

I like it very much.

I'll bet you do.

You've done a little, uh, finger -snapping in the past 24 hours or so.

You know the police are anxious to get ahold of you, don't you?

Mmm, but I'm safe while I'm with you.

I'm not so sure.

We'd better sit further apart.

You're doing things to me which shouldn't be experienced by any respectable

man.

So you like me?

Now, to get back to business, I want exactly...

What are you after?

Why can't we work together?

I always hope that I shouldn't have to return to my country.

No, I do not go back.

Em?

Well, you've chosen a pretty dangerous way of breaking loose.

Murder's a serious crime.

Murder?

I didn't kill anybody.

Oh, you mean Gregor.

I only stunned him.

A little bit.

And then proceeded to make things very unpleasant for me.

That was before I really knew you.

All right, then.

What was in that package you were supposed to hand over?

Diamonds.

Many, many diamonds.

Oh, diamonds.

Where are they?

They're not in there.

Then tell me where they are.

I haven't got them on me, but never mind.

Help me, and they'll be half yours.

Now we're getting somewhere.

Not that I believe you when you say them out, aren't you?

But they're not.

Don't you really believe me?

No.

All right.

Look, I haven't got them.

I still don't believe you.

All right.

You should see for yourself.

Hey, hey, you can't do that.

Oh, but I can.

We are alone.

OK.

Go ahead.

Go on.

I don't want to embarrass you.

Pity, in England, men are so shy.

Now, to get back to business, do all you people work for Mr.

Schell?

Mr.

Schell is my father.

I thought you said you didn't know Mr.

Schell.

Oh, I tell a little lie.

That is all.

Oh, well, what's a fib between friends?

All right.

No more fibs.

Now listen carefully.

Mr.

Schell, for a long time, has been sending diamonds and money into England.

The diamonds I bring, they are trifle.

He has got more, much more.

Look, he's a vile man.

He's a war criminal.

It cannot be dishonest to rob such a man.

We go equal shares.

Is that not good?

Yes, except for one snag, a rather big snag.

What is it?

Pixie.

What do you think she'll do when I tell her that you and I are partners?

What if she loves you?

Doesn't she want you to be happy?

We're glamorous people.

The blondes are concerned.

I'm afraid she's not very broad -minded.

And...

If I were in her shoes looking at you,

my mind would be as narrow as the edge of a razor plate.

I'm sorry it can't be done.

Not even for a little while.

No.

I'm afraid not.

Listen.

Mr.

Schell?

Yes.

Get your things.

Behind those curtains.

Wait a minute.

All right.

Hello?

Where are you?

Come in, Mr. Schell

You're expected.

Conquest is the name.

I understand the, uh,

war crimes commissioner would like to have a word with you.

All that is forgotten now.

So you came to collect her, Baron.

Gregor's death panicked you into a move which you hadn't really planned.

Now the police are after you, too, just in case you didn't know.

They have no proof.

Gregor was...

You were saying something about Gregor.

Do go on.

It does not pay anyone to recognize me.

Meaning me?

Where is Mr.

Feather?

In my flat in Park Lane, he was making himself a nuisance.

Are you, uh, anxious to leave?

For the moment, you have the advantage.

Not this time, chum.

I was half expecting reinforcements, Baron.

Silly of you to look past me like that.

And if you don't stay still, I'll tear you off.

Think about the car.

Time is short.

Drive straight to the flat of this man.

Oh, turkey man.

That is all, yeah.

Yes?

Yes?

Who is that?

I'm a good friend of Mr.

Conquest.

He's in danger.

Who are you, please?

Are you the blonde?

Yes, I've heard about you.

Oh, please.

This is important.

My conqueror's been hit on the head.

Your conquest who do listen there is much hurry They're bringing him home,

and I'm sure that these men will try to force their way in Yes, they want mr.

Feather How is he being brought here and His own car I Hope you could drive.

Well, it's practically jet propelled Yes,

now listen carefully there's a side road at the corner of conquest court The.

Put that down, you fool.

Keep your gun in his ribs.

What's the matter, Baron?

Nervous?

I am desperate with everything that was including my life.

One step out of place and I will not hesitate to use this.

You know, Baron, I believe you mean that.

Ah no, Pixie.

Yes?

A lucky man, Mr.

Fong.

What's in happening?

We have no time to lose.

Fong Henchel wants I want this man further, and we must be ready for them.

Reach, Baron.

Thank you, sweetheart.

I couldn't have done better myself.

Baron, stand away.

I've got Conquish covered.

Drop your gun.

Stand aside or I'll fire.

You would not dare.

Give me the gun.

I'm more desperate than you are.

Unpredictable, aren't you?

Better give it to her, Pixie.

Thank you for all I know.

You will not regret this.

I waited for my chance, Baron.

Now I'm with you.

Thank you, Conquish.

Good night.

Good night, sir.

Good night, madam.

Hello.

Hello.

Hello.

You are a fool.

This delay with conquest may cost me my freedom.

La Pampa sails in less than an hour.

You make it all right here, madam.

Luckily, the valuables are safe at Heathview.

All of them.

Including the package that arrived yesterday?

Well, I...

I...

Don't worry, Mr.

Feather.

I've got them.

Ah, good.

When I heard from my friend in your foreign office you were to be arrested,

I thought all would be lost.

It was fortunate that I was able to get Gregor before he got you.

You mean that you...

you?

Do you think I was going to let that...

package slip through my hands, you have done well, dear man.

You shall both pay just every worth it.

Thank you, Stevens.

Very civil of you.

That's all right, sir.

Oh, uh, man, dear.

Hello?

Yeah.

Can't question what a word with you.

Why?

What's the trouble?

What do you know about a man called Baron Von Henschel?

Nothing very much.

He was killed in the war, wasn't he?

Sure you didn't meet him at the Park Plaza last night?

No.

No, Bill, no.

Well,

it might interest you to know that Baron Von Henschel's fingerprints were found

on the dead man's collar.

That means he's not as dead as we thought he was, doesn't it?

I'll be over.

Okay.

Who was that?

Only Bill.

He's waking up.

Just found out Von Henschel's alive.

Oh, fine.

Let's leave it to him.

Thank heavens all that's over as far as we're concerned.

Over?

What, and let Von Henschel get away with a fortune?

I'm only just starting.

There's no use dashing off wildly.

They may have gone to the country place, Heathfield, elsewhere.

Why did Von Henschel come here?

To rescue further, of course.

Therefore, he must be the only one who knows where the loot is hidden.

Why does that lead us?

It leads me to follow my hunch.

Hey.

Oh.

Take that car off to the back.

Every moment here is right here.

Right on.

Narina, untie this man.

We shall go upstairs.

Thank you.

Hello, I'm Pixie.

I can't explain now, but I'm at 45.

This is a bad line, I can't hear you.

There isn't much time, but you must believe me.

Hello?

Hello?

Nadeena, what's wrong?

Hello?

I wasn't what I thought.

How unwise.

You understand?

No.

Love, pamper.

Victoria, dark.

Look.

The package, please.

There is no hurry.

I'll give them to you when we arrive on the ship.

You will not double -cross me again.

Where are those diamonds?

Look out!

Go on, lapish now, you damn it.

Thank you.

I won't ask you again.

Where are those diamonds?

They are in my flat.

I must phone my friends to bring them to the ship.

All right.

I will come with you.

And you must make it perfectly clear to your friends that if they wish to see

you again, those diamonds must reach the ship before she sails tonight.

If he doesn't show up soon, we'll lose the tide.

We will give him 20 minutes and then we will cart off.

This must be him.

To the end, sir.

So long as he pays.

To the end, sir.

I'll catch you.

Unfortunately, I can't do that to you.

You don't understand.

I suppose...

trying to explain won't help.

You all right?

But...

I don't understand.

He said nothing.

Nothing I can say that would make any difference.

No, I'm afraid not.

It's a pity.

I was beginning to like him.

Look out!

Look out!

Perhaps, for me, this is the best thing.

You know, in your flat, that was the only thing to do.

If I had not done as I did, you would have shunned you.

I know.

Norman.

Norman, one little thing.

Sean Adina.

My two comrades are on their way here.

Look after them for me.

Of course.

Then, we are friends again.

Yes, we are friends again.

Kiss.

Be friends.

Hey, be careful of that thing.

It might go off.

Now, you see, Chum, I had no trouble at all solving that little lot.

I realized that once Von Henschel had been recognized by Gregor,

he had to kill him.

Now that the case against him is complete, we've dropped all the other charges.

Got it?

Yes.

Bless you.

And you?

Well, I'm sorry I've got to take your stolen property.

Ah, well, it can't be helped.

Fill me a paper, Pixie.

Keep him out of trouble.

Goodbye.

You're going to look lovely in diamonds.

What am I saying?

You look lovely just the way you are now.
