Original subtitles

Dr. Leon Barnard, his daughter Anna,

and an ambitious young officer in their military secret service, Alexi Zartov.

Oh, Barnard, isn't he the scientist who defected during the 60s?

Yeah, and now we think he's been giving us subtle hints

in his published scientific papers that he wants to come back.

Can't you find out for sure?

No Zartov's a problem.

He stays so close to Barnard that we can't get near him.

It's as if he knows in advance the doctor's every move.

Our every move.

Last week two of our agents disappeared.

I think we need your help.

Hey, what the devil are you doing out here.

I have been checking all over this building for you and Dan.

Now where...

I think you just tripped over him Walter.

And you gave me a good kick on the side on the way down.

Well it serves you right.

You should post signs, like keep up the grass.

Would it be too forward of me to ask

what you're doing out here at two in the afternoon?

I'm working on my tan.

Won't work.

That has got to be the most ridiculous...

We're serious Walter.

We want to see if his invisible skin

can pick up ultraviolet radiation.

Yeah, maybe I can get a sunburn.

An experiment?

I'm paying you two to lie out here and get a tan.

No no. Not today. Get dressed. Both of you.

I want you in my office in 10 minutes.

What for?

- It involves Leon Barnard. - Dr. Leon Barnard?

We were very close.

He was the best physics professor in the country.

Taught me everything I know.

Well he defected, didn't he?

Yes, in 1960.

A combination of things made him do it.

His wife died,

and then he discovered that the results of his work

were being used to, well, to kill people in war.

He couldn't take that, so he packed up his bags

and his daughter and he defected.

I don't think you'll find a more humane man in the world.

I miss him.

And I've got good news. You'll be seeing him this week.

How?

The Eastern Bloc is sponsoring a worldwide scientific convention, in Stockholm.

The purpose of the meeting is to introduce Barnett's project to the world.

He's expected to present a paper and a small demonstration.

Nothing too detailed. Just enough to show off its capabilities.

We're going to Sweden?

Doctors Dan and Kate Westin have been invited to attend.

Now as a close friend and one time student,

then, you might be able to get close enough to him

to find something out to find out.

To find out if he wants to come back? What if he does?

You'll have your hands full.

Sweden's literally turned over the meetings hotel of the Eastern Bloc.

It will be foreign soil for the duration of the conference.

For night security no one allowed in or out as long as Barnard's there.

If he wants out it's up to the Clay resource to get him out.

Barnard and his daughter. Get them out alive.

I thought Sweden was cold.

Nice meeting you, uh, Westin was it?

Yes, Daniel. Thanks for sharing the cab.

My pleasure. Always glad to help a fellow penguin.

I'm at the hotel across the street.

Give me a call if you'd like to have a drink.

Sure will Mr. Lawson

Dr. West.

Dr. West, and I'm sure you don't recognize me.

Anna. Anna Barnard. I can't believe it.

The last time I saw you, I think you were, were you were two.

Yes, I was very young.

Oh, I'm sorry. This is my wife Kate.

- Hello Anna (American pronunciation). - Anna. (Russian pronunciation)

My father wants to know if you will join us at 7 for dinner?

He's looking forward to seeing you again after all these years.

Oh, of course we'll join you.

Now how is he these days?

Infinitely better than when he was in your country Dr. Westin.

I'm sorry. This is captain Alexi Zartov, my fianc� and my father's aide.

How do you do?

If you will kindly hand over your passports, we will be

happy to hold them in security until you are ready to depart.

One, here we are.

If you will excuse us, I'm sure you would like to unpack and freshen up,

Oh. Of course.

I saw you looking at her Alexi.

She's very beautiful, isn't she?

Oh yes. In a very western, capitalistic sort of way.

You are much more beautiful to me.

Than Dr. Westin? I'm so plain.

In our country Anna, plain is beautiful. She is vulgar.

You my love, very precious to me.

I love you Alexi.

Bad vibes Danny?

It's just not like Barnard to have someone else meet us.

[Swedish]

[Swedish]

Oh.

[Conversing in Swedish]

I didn't know you could speak Swedish.

What was all that about?

- You only gave 10 cents. - Oh, how much did you give him?

-100 �ren. - How much is that? - 25 cents

Well, no wonder the poor guy was upset.

- Ooh. - Ow!

- What's the matter? - My sunburn

That's fantastic. That means your skin can pick up ultraviolet rays.

Let me see. Ah not even pink.

Why do I feel like a lobster

She's a marvelous woman Daniel. You're a lucky man.

It's so good to see you again.

I've been wanting to talk to you about your teletransportation experiments.

Fascinating. I'm very proud.

Oh thank you Doctor. Can you tell us something about your work?

Tomorrow Dr. Westin.

I'm sure Dr. Barnard's presentation will tell us all you care to know.

Uh, it's been so long since I've had lobster.

You see, they're very hard to come by in my country.

But we eat caviar instead Daddy.

I know my sweet. I've just never developed a taste for the stuff.

And your new country, Doctor, have you developed a taste for it?

I'm glad you asked that question so that we can clear the air.

Do you remember Bernard's rule in college Daniel?

- Oh, yes. - Well it applies here.

I've never been happier, never so happy with the use of my work.

I'm very happy. It's my home.

Well, now that that's out of the way shall we have coffee?

What a lovely idea.

But that's spying Alexi. You can't expect me to spy on my own father?

Not spy. Protect.

Can't you understand? This is for his own good.

They tried to contact him in our own country, didn't they?

Attempted kidnap. You think they won't try it here?

I dislike doing this as much as you do,

but it would be far worse if something were to happen to him.

It is a way of showing our love.

Can I tell him about the bug?

No. We don't want to alarm him.

Boy am I stuffed.

Me too. I shouldn't have eaten everything in sight.

Yeah, you didn't. I had most of it.

Do you know I ate a whole two-pound lobster single-handed.

Not to mention the chocolate mousse.

Well at least I didn't have two of them.

Why no, but it was so good.

What do you think of Anna now that you spent some time with him?

Anna, well I don't know. I think she's a pretty young girl

but I think she's totally brainwashed by her militaristic schooling

and that handsome young soldier.

Well do you think she'd come with her father if we got him out?

Now? No.

Why, do you know something I don't?

Yes. I'm pretty sure that Barnard wants to defect.

Well, re-defect.

I may have to have my hearing checked but I could have sworn he said...

Barnard's rule.

He used to put it at the top of all his exam papers.

Hasty answers suggest false answers.

Only fools rush in.

You mean he meant the complete opposite of what he said.

Well I once knew what he meant. Let's hope I still do.

Where are you going?

I'm going to pay my professor a visit. Make sure I'm right.

Oh here. Take this, will you?

Good luck darling.

Yes? - Daddy?

Oh, come in baby.

- Can I have a good night kiss? - Sure.

I'm so proud of you. Aren't you excited?

Yes. A little weary though.

It was so nice seeing Daniel Westin again.

You know, it makes me realize how sometimes I -

miss the United States. I think you'd like it there too.

No. - Why not?

In spite of everything, it is the land of opportunity, freedom.

It is the land of chauvinists.

People get by on their beauty instead of their merits.

That sounds like Zacco speaking. So?

Well, it's just that I'd like to hear you speak for yourself.

- I love him father. - Do you? Does he love you?

He's not as gentle as he seems.

If you only knew the things that he does for you.

You can lock up now. He's in for the evening.

Dr. Barnard - Who's there?

Don't turn the light on. They'll know I'm here.

What is it?

Someone is in there with him.

I didn't forget Barnard's rule.

How did you get in, The guards...

I walk on my toes.

Do you really want to come back to the United States?

Oh. I'd give anything. I can't tell you...

Where is he?

Yuri. [speaks Russian]

I heard someone in this room old man. Who was it?

I don't know WHO!

Put him down Alexi!

No one needs to unlock this door tonight. No one!

Well?

I'm sorry. I think there was someone in there with him.

We have to know. I didn't realize what I was doing. I became carried away.

Did you find out about the bug under the table?

No!

- What did you hear? - A man's voice.

Dr. Barnard. - Who's there?

Don't turn the light on. They'll know I'm here.

I recognize that voice.

What is it?

Westin! Yvonne, Sergey.

Dr. Westin's room. Now.

Hold the elevator.

This way.

Westin?

Captain? What is it?

This time of the night it better be good.

Where is your husband, Dr. Westin?

Uh, he's in the shower.

Kate, is there someone out there?

Captain Zartov. And he seems extremely anxious to see you.

- Get my clothes. I'll be right out. - Okay?

- I couldn't find your right hand. - What?

- I couldn't find it. - Did you try the sock drawer?

What would it be doing with your socks?

Well, I was... Never mind go back to Zartov.

He'll be right out.

I assume this is urgent Captain.

Where were you tonight Dr. Westin?

Since dinner with you, I've been in here.

You're lying. You're were in Barnard's room.

I have proof. A tape of your voice.

Oh, don't be ridiculous.

You have that room guarded, don't you you?

You were there.

Oh, did anyone see me?

I heard you.

What did I say?

Why is your hand in your shirt like that?

The lobster at dinner gave me indigestion.

I have a call. [Russian phone call]

Give me the keys to your room.

That was my superior. You are a very lucky man Dr. Westin.

My tape of your voice is not enough evidence to hold you captive.

It would only disturb our relationship with your country

in the scientific community.

I still don't know what you're talking about.

The first thing tomorrow morning, your consulate will be called,

and we will demand your immediate deportation.

Until then, you and your wife will be kept under lock and key

without the use of the telephone.

Good night, and I hope, goodbye.

Pleasant fella.

There are two of them out there.

Did you find out anything?

Yeah, Barnard wants out.

That makes three of us. Any ideas?

Oh, your hand.

And how to get him out, that's the question.

Dan, I can't find it.

I told you. It's in the sock drawer.

Here it is my sweet.

That's it!

What, your hand or my Dracula imitation?

Barnard's about my size.

If I could get him down into this room...

Now what was this doing in the sock drawer?

Let's hope there aren't any out here.

I'm gonna try the outside ledge.

Are you sure you can make it?

As long as I don't look down.

Here comes nothing.

Dan. Dan?

- Danny. - I made it.

Walter. Walter!

Dead. Two.

What I want is a coach.

What is that woman doing? A fertility dance?

Mr. Consul, I think she's trying to tell us something.

Free. Danny. The ledge.

Bjork? Bjork, is that you?

Excuse me.

Bjork? It is the door Bjork. Bjork.

Yuri. Petra.

Dr. Barnard. It's Daniel.

Daniel, are you here this time?

Right here Doctor.

I can hear you. I can't see you. Let me put the light on.

No! No. The guards.

Daniel, can you, get me out?

Maybe. But I need to know why.

If you come back to the states you know,

you're going to be arrested, you'll be tried.

Yes, for defection, treason maybe.

I can live with that.

But what I cannot live with is, having my work used to kill people.

Now they told me that my work here would be used for peaceful purposes.

Lies! The military's behind it.

But when I found that out, I destroyed everything secretly.

There is no molecular dispersion model.

This meeting tomorrow, this conference, is a farce.

The only reason I came here is because it gave me the opportunity to escape.

I can understand that. I know what it's like to have your work misused.

Now, about your work Daniel. Your teletransportation, brilliant.

I've been trying to write to you,

to tell you of the fantastic potential you might have missed.

I discovered it in a computer readout.

Do you realize, that the possibility exists to make a man disappear.

- Doctor. - Daniel?

Oh my god. Dan.

You're invisible.

Invisible. It's incredible Daniel. Tell me about it.

Later Doctor.

The important thing right now is was to get you out of here.

And Anna.

I'm afraid she's in with Zartov.

I knew it. I just never wanted to admit it.

She's my cursed and my baby. I had to take her with me when I defected.

Couldn't bear the thought of leaving her behind.

And now she doesn't want to come back with me. Well.

She grew up here. She wants to stay here.

- I'm sorry. - What do you want me to do?

Sorry. We've got to tie them up before they come around.

Here, put this on.

This is crazy.

You don't have to remind me.

Thank you.

What about the Guard captain?

He's sleeping. Like a rock.

Quickly, to the elevator.

Oh, wait a minute. Why do we have to go to your room?

Can't we just walk out the lobby right now?

It's like a border down there. They'd spot youin an instant.

How are you going to get me out? Make me invisible.

Something like that.

Where's your room?

First door around the corner. It's guarded.

When the security men move away from the door, you slip in.

Won't it be locked?

You've got a passkey. Leave the door ajar.

Ajar? Daniel?

- Who is it? - Dr. Barnard

- Dr. Barnard, where's Dan? - Right here.

Get out of your suit Doctor. As we talk I'll, I'll get you my pajamas.

What in heaven's name is that?

It's my mask, my visibility. Here take it.

You don't mean to tell me your situation is permanent.

We had an antidote, but it didn't work.

Now we have to start over from the very beginning.

My situation exactly.

Put it on.

Ah, welcome back to the States Dr. Barnard.

Thank you. It's good to be back home again.

Mr. Randolph, sorry it took me so long to get back to you,

but the Swedish embassy line was busy.

Mr. Swenson said that the Yuslavian Ambassador

also called him quite early this morning.

It seems that the ejection of Dr. Westin and his wife

from the convention was ordered by a Captain Zartov.

Head of their security guarding Dr. Barnard.

Now since the Swedish government is hosting the convention,

the council said they had no choice but to cooperate politically.

Evidently this this Captain Zartov, is still expecting the Westin's

to be picked up at this very hotel by eight o'clock this morning.

Yes, I understand. The car will be out front in a half an hour.

Isn't there any other way we can handle this?

Any diplomatic strings we can pull to keep them in there.

Not unless you want to risk their lives.

That answers that. I'd better get going.

Yuri. Petra.

[speaking Russian]

Westin. Good morning Dr. Westin.

it's a little early isn't it Slick?

Slick? What is Slick?

You have exactly twenty minutes to be downstairs.

My men will help you with your luggage.

If you have to talk, move your lips and leave the speaking to me.

Your Consul isn't here yet.

Perhaps they don't want you either, aw Westin.

Dr. Westin, my father isn't up yet.

I'm sure he'll be sorry to have missed you.

Oh, tell him that we're sorry too.

It's sad when you can't say goodbye to your friends, your family.

Your father has a breakfast meeting this morning.

You should go wake him.

Doctor, shall we wait for your car?

I'll give him your regards. Goodbye.

You seem unusually quiet this morning Dr. Westin.

The old American expression, 'Does the cat have your tongue?'

No.

Is something wrong?

No.

Your car is here Captain.

It looks like they want you after all. You happy to be leaving?

[mumbling]

Patcha, get the elevator. My father's gone.

Come with me.

- [whispered] Passports. - Oh, Passports.

Have a pleasant trip home.

Alexi! Father's gone.

Stop them.

We can't find him anywhere, Captain.

He's gone. I don't know how.

My... I...

Seize her. Are you deaf? Seize her.

Why are you doing this to me? what have I done?

You play chess Anna.

I'm sure you are aware of the function of a pawn.

Unless Barnard surrenders himself to our authorities,

I will be forced to sacrifice one of my pawns.

Anna Barnard will die.

I know he is there, Consul.

Dr. Barnard has one hour to surrender himself to our authorities.

If he fails to do so, he will never see Anna again. Never!

Oh my god! They'll kill her now.

Oh, we... uh...

We've still got an hour.

I don't understand Alexi. I don't want to leave.

I just want to stay here with you.

Your father is gone.

I have no further use for you other than to get your father back.

But you love me.

Look at yourself. Now look at me.

Do you think that I could possibly love a plain little girl like you?

Lock the door and stand outside.

I trust that you will be able to handle the girl,

better than you handled her father.

I couldn't get her to listen to me.

He has such a hold on her.

First love is always like that. We'll get her out.

Why don't I go to Zartov? Trade myself for Anna.

Then how would you get out?

Oh, uh, I'd find a way.

What do you say Walter. I'm a valuable scientist.

Do you think they'd take me?

Oh they'd take you all right.

But that's assuming that they'd let Anna go.

I think Zartov would keep both of you.

Force us to give up Barnard.

That way he winds up with a pair of very valuable physicists.

How much time we got?

45 minutes. Takes 20 minutes just to get there.

Do you have any uh... military decorations? Uh anything?

No. I don't think so.

Well how about some colored ribbon and chewing gum?

Chewing gum?

- It's time. - [illegible]

Do you know where she is?

I think so. Have the car waiting outside the front of the building.

- Kate, you ready? - Just about.

Great.

Be waiting on the lawn on the right-hand side of the building.

You sure you know what you're doing?

Are you kidding. No, my medals.

Ugh. [speaking Russian]

[speaking Russian]

What do you want? Can't you leave me alone?

Dr. Westin. What are you doing here?

I came to get you out of here. That's what you want?

Yes.

Dr. Westin. I feel so stupid, so angry with myself.

I'm sorry I caused all of this.

Oh, that's all right. You're just a, a pawn in a political game.

Yes, that's what Zartov said.

He certainly made a fool out of me didn't he.

Listen, we gotta hurry. Get your clothes off.

You want me to take off my clothes?

Yes. Put on this uniform.

In front of you?

No, uh. In there.

Um, what are you going to wear?

Your clothes.

Where is he? Why isn't he here?

Barnard should know that Alexi's are tough.

He's not the kind of mental bluff.

It's a good job Chairman Mao isn't into halter tops and miniskirts.

I warned him. Now Anna will have to pay the price.

Wait in here until you hear the guards chasing me,

and you make your way down into the lobby as fast as you can.

hopefully nobody will spot you until you're out of the hotel.

Here, Anna.

Now the Consul's limousine will be waiting outside.

You jump right into it.

What about you?

Let me worry about that.

Peekaboo.

Anna. Anna. Anna. Anna.

Open this door.

Anna. Anna, you can't escape.

Anna. Let me in. Anna.

Anna.

Anna. [speaking Russian]

Its a pity the victims of politics are often innocent little children.

- Can we go now? - In a minute.

Let's go. - Now we can Walter.

Let's go home Anna.

There was a time when I thought I'd never get to see you again.

I'm sorry. I should have listened to you.

You were right about Alexi.

Well. there are some things that we have to learn in our own.

I'm growing up Daddy.

I know.

I can't understand how you got out.

The security must have been incredible.

Well, you'll have to ask Dr. Westin about that.

But Dr. Westin. Where is he?

Right here Anna.

Thank god you're all right.

That's usually my line.

How did you get out?

I think I know. But your secret's safe with me.

What can I say?

I hate to interrupt this gentleman,

but we have a plane to catch.

Back to the United States.

Yes Dr. Barnard. Back home.
