[ "MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE" THEME PLAYS ]

Man: GOOD AFTERNOON, MR. PHELPS.

YOU'RE LOOKING AT COLONEL HANS KRIM,

THE LEADER OF A MERCENARY ARMY

CURRENTLY RAVAGING EQUATORIAL AFRICA.

OSTENSIBLY, KRIM FIGHTS FOR THE CAUSE OF EMERGING NATIONS.

BUT IN REALITY, HE IS NOTHING BUT A MILITARY GANGSTER

WHO PLUNDERS ALLY AND ENEMY ALIKE.

KRIM AND HIS MERCENARIES

HAVE CONVERTED THEIR LOOT INTO GOLD BARS,

WHICH ARE KEPT WITHIN THE ENCLAVE USED AS HEADQUARTERS.

YOUR MISSION, JIM, SHOULD YOU DECIDE TO ACCEPT IT,

IS TO DESTROY KRIM AND RETURN THE GOLD.

AS ALWAYS, SHOULD YOU OR ANY OF YOUR I.M. FORCE

BE CAUGHT OR KILLED,

THE SECRETARY WILL DISAVOW ANY KNOWLEDGE OF YOUR ACTIONS.

THIS TAPE WILL SELF-DESTRUCT IN FIVE SECONDS.

GOOD LUCK, JIM.

A LITTLE MISDIRECTION, IT'LL WORK.

TWO BLANKS, ROLLIN.

THE THIRD SHOT, YOU'RE ON YOUR OWN.

THIS IS THE ENCLAVE.

IT'S COMPLETELY SURROUNDED BY MOUNTAINS.

THIS IS A ROAD.

IT'S THE ONLY WAY IN OR OUT.

WHAT ABOUT THE LAKE?

IT'S HARDLY MORE THAN A POND, REALLY.

IT JUST TRICKLES AWAY TO NOTHING.

WHAT ABOUT THE TUNNEL?

THE TUNNEL'S AN OLD ESCAPE ROUTE OUT OF THE COMPOUND

RUNS A FEW HUNDRED YARDS INTO THE JUNGLE.

THERE'S BEEN SOME SETTLING, BUT IT IS PASSABLE.

ROLLIN, HOW LONG DO YOU THINK YOU CAN HOLD OUT?

ABOUT SIX HOURS AT THE MOST.

WILL THIS UNIT OF YOURS

GET THE JOB DONE IN THAT TIME, BARNEY?

WE'LL MAKE IT, JIM.

RIGHT.

JIM, KRIM KNOWS ABOUT THE MISSING GOLD.

GOLD IS HIS BUSINESS.

ALREADY HAS OVER A MILLION DOLLARS OF IT IN HIS VAULT.

YOU CAN BE SURE THAT HE KNOWS.

IT'S BEEN AN OPEN SECRET IN THAT PART OF THE WORLD

FOR THE PAST 15 YEARS.

THIS IS THE AD YOU'LL BE ANSWERING, ROLLIN.

RUNS EVERY DAY IN THE TANGIERS PAPER.

THIS IS HOW THEY GET THE RECRUITS, HUH?

RIGHT. RECRUITS LIKE YOU.

[ BLEATING ]

INSUBORDINATION.

THIEF...RAPIST...

EMBEZZLER...DESERTER.

THAT'S A LIE.

LIEUTENANT ALEX MORELAND, 20th COLONIAL,

DESERTED SEPTEMBER 18, 1959,

RELEASED TO LUMM PENITENTIARY

JUNE OF THIS YEAR.

ALL OF YOU, I EXPOSE YOUR SECRETS

SO THAT YOU WILL ALL KNOW THEY MEAN NOTHING HERE.

ONLY THE PRESENT IS IMPORTANT, AND THE FUTURE.

OBEY ORDERS,

AND YOU WILL ALL LEAVE AFRICA RICH MEN.

I GUARANTEE IT.

[ BRAKES SQUEAL ]

SORRY, ROAD'S CLOSED BEYOND THIS POINT.

WE'RE MISSIONARIES. WE DON'T MEAN ANY HARM.

NO ONE GOES THROUGH THIS CHECKPOINT. THOSE ARE MY ORDERS.

WE'RE HERE TO TREAT THE SICK

AND BRING COMFORT TO THE DYING.

SURELY YOU CAN'T OBJECT TO THAT.

AND WE HAVE BIBLES FOR THE MEN, AS WELL.

NOTHING. JUST BIBLES.

LET THEM THROUGH.

THERE HAVE BEEN FOUR MEN BEFORE YOU

FROM THE OLD 20th COLONIALS.

OH?

THEY ALL SEEMED... PREOCCUPIED...

AS IF THEY WERE SEARCHING FOR SOMETHING.

REALLY, COLONEL?

SOMETHING, UM, VALUABLE, I ALWAYS IMAGINED.

TELL ME, LIEUTENANT,

DID THE 20th LEAVE SOMETHING VALUABLE HERE?

ONLY OUR HONOR, COLONEL.

[ BRAKES SQUEAL ]

I'VE HEARD REPORTS

THAT, UH, 20th WAS FORCED TO LEAVE BEHIND

A GREAT DEAL OF GOLD BULLION, YES?

NO?

NO, COLONEL.

THE ONE THING WE DIDN'T LEAVE BEHIND WAS GOLD.

GOOD DAY.

[ DOOR OPENS, CLOSES ]

KEEP AN EYE ON HIM.

[ DOOR OPENS, CLOSES ]

[ BRAKES SQUEALING ]

WASTING YOUR TIME HERE, REVEREND.

GET COLONEL KRIM.

'67 SCODA.

HOW MUCH?

$60.

TOO MUCH.

NOT WITH THE RISKS I'M TAKING.

I LIKE THE SETUP. IT'S INGENIOUS.

AND I LIKE THE PRODUCT.

HOW MANY CAN YOU DELIVER, AND HOW FAST?

DEPENDS ON HOW MUCH YOU CAN PAY AND HOW FAST.

DON'T WORRY ABOUT THE PAYMENT.

I WORRY ABOUT THE PAYMENT, AND I'D WORRY A LOT LESS

IF I SAW THE COLOR OF YOUR MONEY.

HERE IT IS.

[ LAUGHTER ]

[ DOOR CLOSES ]

[ FOOTSTEPS ]

AT EASE, MEN.

[ CLEARS THROAT ]

NOTHING YET.

SATISFIED?

I GET PAID IN ADVANCE.

ON DELIVERY.

NO DEAL.

GET OUT, REVEREND.

THAT THE WAY YOU WANT IT, COLONEL?

YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND, GUNRUNNER.

THIS ISN'T THE COLONEL'S GOLD.

IT BELONGS TO EVERY MAN IN THIS COMMAND.

AND IF HE MAKES A BAD DEAL, HE HAS TO ANSWER FOR IT.

AM I DEALING WITH HIM OR WITH YOU?

GRUNER, I'LL HANDLE IT.

NATIVE GOVERNMENTS ARE GETTING STRONGER, KRIM.

YOU NEED WHAT I'M SELLING.

TEN PERCENT DOWN.

FIFTEEN OR NO DEAL.

IT'S A DEAL.

[ BEEPING ]

I'VE GOT IT.

10 MORTARS,

SIX LIGHT MACHINE GUNS,

SIX CASES OF AUTOMATIC RIFLES.

SIX CASES.

[ KNOCK ON DOOR ]

COME IN.

WHAT DID YOU CHANGE FOR?

WE'RE LEAVING IN A LITTLE WHILE.

OH, DO WE HAVE TO DRIVE BACK TONIGHT?

YOU'RE WELCOME TO SPEND THE NIGHT HERE.

THANK YOU, COLONEL.

[ INSECTS CHIRPING ]

[ WOMAN LAUGHING ]

[ ENGINE TURNS OVER ]

[ ENGINE SHUTS OFF ]

[ REVVING ]

600 DEGREES.

700.

2,000.

2,100.

2,200.

THE MAN WAS FOLLOWING ME. THAT'S WHY I HIT HIM.

WHAT'S THIS ALL ABOUT ANYWAY?

WHERE DID YOU GET THIS?

IT'S A GOOD-LUCK CHARM. I'VE CARRIED IT FOR YEARS.

AAH!

YOU FOUND THE GOLD

THE 20th BRIGADE LEFT BEHIND.

NOW, WHERE IS IT?

[ SIGHS ] HANG HIM UP.

IF MY MEN KNEW YOU'D FOUND THIS GOLD

AND DIDN'T SHARE IT WITH THEM,

THEY'D TEAR YOU APART.

TELL ME WHERE IT IS.

I'LL HELP YOU GET IT OUT OF THE ENCLAVE.

I DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT.

WELL, WHEN HE STARTS TALKING, LET ME KNOW.

LET ME TELL YOU SOMETHING --

I LIKE THE FIGHTING. AND THE KILLING.

AND ANY PROFESSIONAL SOLDIER

WHO TELLS YOU DIFFERENT IS A LIAR.

WE'RE ALL BUTCHERS

BECAUSE THE KILLING MAKES EVERYTHING BETTER.

FOOD TASTES... BOOZE HITS...

AND EVEN A WOMAN...

NOW I'M MAKING IT PAY.

I'VE SOLDIERED ALL OVER THE WORLD.

AND THIS IS THE BEST

BECAUSE I'M GOING TO BE A RICH MAN --

A VERY RICH MAN.

I ADMIRE YOUR FRANKNESS, COLONEL.

IT'S...REFRESHING.

YOU...MY DEAR... ARE REFRESHING.

COME ON, KATHERINE, WE'RE GOING TO BED.

OH, JIM, I WAS JUST BEGINNING TO HAVE A GOOD TIME.

I KNOW WHAT YOU WERE TRYING TO DO.

COME ON.

[ SIGHS ]

SORRY, KRIM, SHE'S NOT PART OF THE DEAL.

WE'D BETTER GET OUT OF HERE IN AN HOUR AND A HALF

OR ROLLIN'S HAD IT.

[ KNOCK ON DOOR ]

CAN I COME IN, COLONEL?

OF COURSE.

JIM...

GIVE ME ONE GOOD REASON WHY I SHOULDN'T KILL YOU.

PLEASE, JIM, IF YOU SHOOT HIM, THEY'LL KILL YOU.

AND IT WILL BE FOR NOTHING.

GET UP!

COME ON.

[ LAUGHING ]

[ PANTING ]

[ ENGINE TURNS OVER ]

[ BRAKES SQUEAL ]

[ ENGINE SHUTS OFF ]

CUT ME DOWN.

YOU READY TO TALK?

YES. YES. JUST CUT ME DOWN.

[ BRAKES SQUEAL ]

[ GASPING ]

[ BREATHING HEAVILY ]

NOW YOU HAVE SOMETHING TO TELL US, LIEUTENANT?

THERE IS... THERE IS SOME GOLD.

WHERE?

WILL YOU SHARE IT WITH ME?

OF COURSE. WHERE IS IT?

YOU'LL KILL ME IF I TELL YOU.

YOU WANT SOME MORE OF THIS?

NO. NO.

I'LL TAKE YOU THERE.

LET'S GO.

[ ENGINE TURNS OVER ]

[ BRAKES SQUEAL ]

[ BRAKES SQUEAL ]

IT'S IN THERE.

SEE?

THERE'S ENOUGH FOR ALL OF US.

YES.

YES, THERE IS.

ALL WE HAVE TO DO

IS GET IT OUT OF THE ENCLAVE.

UNH!

THERE MUST BE A TON.

MORE.

WE'LL NEED HELP TO GET IT BACK TO THE VAULT.

COLONEL, THIS DOESN'T GO TO THE VAULT.

COLONEL?

I MADE THIS ARMY RICH, AND I'LL MAKE IT RICHER.

BUT THIS IS MINE.

AND YOURS.

YOU LIKE THAT?

WHAT IF THE MEN FIND OUT?

THEY WON'T.

THIS WILL BE ON ITS WAY TO TANGIERS

IN A COUPLE OF HOURS.

AND NO ONE THE WISER.

HOW CAN WE GET IT PAST THE ROADBLOCK SENTRY?

YOU'LL SEE.

I FIGURE YOU CAN GET IT OUT OF THE ENCLAVE.

IF YOU CLEAR MY TRUCK PAST THE CHECKPOINT,

I CAN GET IT ALL THE WAY TO TANGIERS.

WHAT'S IN IT FOR ME?

$25,000.

YOU GOT TO BE OUT OF YOUR MIND.

FIFTY.

FOR THE RISKS I'LL BE TAKING?

NO CHANCE.

$50,000. TAKE IT OR LEAVE IT.

IT'S A GOOD DEAL.

ALL RIGHT, YOU HIRED YOURSELF A TRUCK.

THAT'S ALL OF IT, COLONEL.

BETTER MAKE SURE.

A PRECAUTION.

LET'S GO.

SHE STAYS.

WHAT IS THIS?

YOU DIDN'T THINK I'D JUST TRUST YOU?

WHEN YOU GET BACK FROM TANGIERS

WITH THE DEPOSIT RECEIPTS, SHE CAN LEAVE.

BUT IF ANYTHING GOES WRONG...

GOOD MORNING, MAJOR.

GOOD MORNING, MA'AM.

[ RINGS ]

STOHLMAN.

A TRUCK WILL BE ARRIVING SHORTLY.

Pass it through at once.

DON'T WASTE TIME SEARCHING IT.

THAT'S WHAT I SAID, STOHLMAN -- NO SEARCH.

VERY GOOD, COLONEL.

HOW MUCH OF AN ADVANCE DID YOU HAVE TO GIVE HIM?

NONE. HE DECIDED TO TRUST US.

MRS. WILSON WILL BE STAYING WITH US

TILL HER HUSBAND GETS BACK.

[ DOOR CLOSES ]

[ RINGS ]

MAJOR GRUNER.

GRUNER, THIS IS COLONEL KRIM.

I FORGOT TO MENTION, VERTE AND WOLSK WANT OUT.

I GAVE MY APPROVAL.

Draw up the papers immediately.

They want to be out of camp by tonight.

BUT, COLONEL --

THAT'S ALL, MAJOR.

I DON'T WANT TO BE DISTURBED FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE DAY.

[ BRAKES SQUEAL ]

Stohlman: Sorry, road's closed beyond this point.

[ Mimicking ] SORRY, ROAD'S CLOSED BEYOND THIS POINT.

Phelps: We're missionaries. We don't mean any harm.

No one gets past this point. Those are my orders.

NO ONE GOES PAST THIS CHECKPOINT.

THOSE ARE MY ORDERS.

[ SIGHS ]

[ RINGS ]

MAJOR GRUNER HERE. YES, STOHLMAN.

THE MISSIONARY TRUCK -- THE REAR SPRINGS WERE FLAT

AS IF IT CARRIED A HEAVY LOAD, SO WE SEARCHED IT.

WE FOUND A FALSE BOTTOM FILLED WITH GOLD.

HOLD THAT TRUCK, STOHLMAN!

WHAT IS THIS?

AN EMERGENCY, COLONEL.

CONTRARY TO YOUR ORDERS,

STOHLMAN SEARCHED THE MISSIONARY TRUCK.

HE FOUND IT FILLED WITH GOLD.

THAT'S IMPOSSIBLE.

THAT'S A FACT, COLONEL.

HOW DID YOUR HUSBAND COME BY SO MUCH GOLD?

DON'T ASK ME. HOW WOULD I KNOW?

YOU HAD BETTER KNOW.

THAT WOULD BE FAR TOO CONVENIENT, COLONEL.

GRUNER, I'LL HANG YOU FOR THIS.

WE'RE WAITING, MRS. WILSON.

LOOK, I'M NOT MRS. WILSON.

I'M A, UH, BUSINESS FRIEND OF JIM'S.

I COME ALONG TO KEEP THE CUSTOMERS HAPPY.

WHAT ABOUT THE GOLD?

I DON'T KNOW ABOUT ANY GOLD.

I DO KNOW THAT YOUR COLONEL AND JIM

WERE OFF SOMEWHERE MOST OF THE NIGHT.

TO THE VAULT PERHAPS, COLONEL?

SHE'S LYING. I'LL TAKE YOU TO THE VAULT.

I'LL SHOW YOU THE GOLD'S STILL THERE.

I DON'T KNOW WHY YOU LIED,

BUT I'LL HAVE YOUR HEART FOR THIS.

[ BRAKES SQUEAL ]

I HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH IT.

LAST TIME I WAS HERE, YOU WERE WITH ME.

WOLSK, VERTE, TELL HIM!

THEY'RE IN THIS WITH YOU.

THAT'S WHY YOU HAD THEIR DISCHARGE PAPERS DRAWN.

THERE ISN'T A SCRATCH ON THAT SAFE.

IT WASN'T BROKEN INTO.

AND ONLY YOU HAVE THE COMBINATION, KRIM.

AAH!

MAJOR GRUNER WANTS HER IN THE VAULT.

LET'S GO.
