Sookie?

Hi. Hi.

I, uh, hope you don't mind.

No, not at all.

Let me freshen it up.

Nice music, nice mood, nice apartment.

Yeah, it's adequate.

Do you believe first reactions are always the best?

Always.

That's what I thought the first moment I saw you.

You know you have me at a slight disadvantage.

Question.

Who are you?

Maria Guardala.

What are you doing here, Maria Guardala?

You're looking for a man named Bennett?

Because he won't find you.

Well, he can't win them all.

Will you stop looking for Benny?

Negative. Sorry.

There's something you ought to know. There's a gun at the back of your neck.

What now, my love?

Forget about Bennett.

He's dead.

Sounds like an interesting evening.

What did Paul tell you?

Why it won't be easy to find Bennett.

They got him?

Yes.

They're holding him at the house on the Rue de l'Eglise.

A bit difficult to get on the guest list, I gather.

But you still haven't told me why Bennett is so important.

He's one of Canada's key agents. He's got locked in his mind the names of six men,

six operators of the Anglo-American Sky Project.

Valuable information to the wrong people.

Worth seven lives, one of them his own. They're probably interrogating him now.

We gotta get him out before he breaks.

Delicate.

I should have thought that MI5 and the Canadians

would have kept us one in the family.

Well, I need a new face if anything goes easy, Sookie.

Oh, that'll be Janos. Hello, Contessa.

Ah, Janos. Hello.

Look, we want you to get a layout of the house.

Where are they holding him?

Well, it won't be easy, but I do have a contact.

Right.

You are not Bennett.

You are Kosneff.

Assigned to take Bennett's place for a week, a month, however long it would take.

Raise his head a little.

We will go through it once more.

I am here to help you find your memory.

After all, our friends spent a great deal of trouble and experience to train you.

More than a year, remember?

You were first selected because you resembled Bennett.

You were taught to talk like him, to think like him, and finally,

the plastic surgery to make you look like him.

But you are not bent.

Personally, I am opposed to the use of drugs, but if you refuse to cooperate...

What progress?

Sad to see one of our most efficient agents so confused.

Is it possible he really thinks he's Bennett?

It's possible.

Personality transference, the result of a minor embolism caused by the bullet wound.

Kuznev.

Once more.

You were supposed to memorize everything that Bennett knew before you killed him.

And you did kill Bennett.

But he wounded you in the head. And because of this, you suffered.

Loss of memory.

Confusion.

You want results?

This will restore Kozhnev's memory.

He will recall all he learned from Bennet, and he will tell us quite willingly.

I'm not Kasnev.

I'm Bennet.

I killed Kasnev.

I'm Bennet.

I killed Kasnev.

You know what we have to do sometimes when we

have nothing else to do? What? Wishes seldom.

Have a nice candlelit dinner on a terrace somewhere, very romantic.

Get a gypsy, you know, play a violin.

I thought you knew.

Widows are dangerous.

Well, for you, it's an occupational hazard.

For me, too.

Think that's an original?

200 francs?

It must be real.

At 200 francs, I'll wait for a copy.

Uh-huh. Hello, how are you?

Hello, Paul.

You two look like a package tour from the Via Veneta.

I hope you've arranged a Sonne Lumiere for us.

Yeah, without too many fireworks. Well, as a matter of fact,

I was planning a tour of a certain house. Interested? Mm, vastly.

How about coffee? Why not?

There are three entrances, all well-gathered. How well? Well, muscle boys,

various members of the staff, you know. But I've had a word with Jonas.

He's here already?

You said it was urgent. He hasn't been sitting around.

Does he know where they're hiding Bennett? Uh-huh.

A room on the top floor overlooks a private garden.

Up the stairs, third door on the right.

Tiled, sloped. What about the window? Barred. Cellar?

What sort of roof?

Not a chance.

Why don't we just try the front door?

Good afternoon.

I have an appointment with the head of the household.

There must be some mistake, Contessa.

I know nothing about... Monsieur has purchased a painting which I intend to deliver.

You have only to look outside. It's in the van.

It makes sense.

You're dead.

Yes, we keep them upstairs until you get here.

No, I have not questioned them yet.

I think there's no doubt about who they are.

I go to the clinic now.

Now get excited.

Let's take a walk over to the edge.

Look at the water.

That'd be a historic place, huh?

What do you want? You know what I want.

Where did they move that guy they had in the house?

Saint-Luc Clinic.

He's regaining consciousness.

You are in Montreal, my friend.

You have made contact with Bennett.

Your name is Alexei Kozhnev.

Koshnev, you have been specially trained.

Your mission, to contact Bennett, kill him and replace him.

Ready?

Ready.

I'm sorry.

OK.

You tell me.

Where are you taking him?

Gray house.

I'd have ever overlooked some of that. 1,800 hours.

Go to the door. The ring.

You walk in. You talk.

He's got a gun in my pocket.

What did you learn, Cosney? He's got a gun in his hand.

But I fire first.

From my pocket.

And blood in my eyes.

Kuznets, what did you learn?

Kuznets is dead.

He's almost ready to speak.

Well, Monsieur Bruchet, it might have been quite serious,

but you will be glad to hear that the x-rays are clear. Thank you, Doctor.

We'd like to keep you waiting for 24 hours longer, to be on the safe side.

Just routine.

Fine.

I have a couple of friends who'd like to visit me this afternoon.

Of course.

Just give their names to reception.

We have to be a little formal in a place like this. It's security, you understand?

Security?

Yes, as you probably know, this is a psychiatric clinic. We have to be careful.

Oh yes, of course.

I haven't yet thanked you, doctor, for your treatment. Oh, please.

A road accident makes a welcome break from manic depressions and schizophrenics.

Well, I must be getting on.

Oh, doctor, could we skip the lock on the door? Oh, sorry. Force of habit.

Boucher is expecting visitors this afternoon, room 27.

Bonjour, mademoiselle. I am Monsieur Montgomery Plums. This is Madame Leclerc.

We are looking for Monsieur Paul Boucher.

What room, please?

Yes, Monsieur Plum.

Monsieur Boucher, the observation ward, room 27. Merci.

Okay, here's your medical discharge.

Hold it.

The needlework is over.

Who are you? What do you want? Bennett.

You're making a big mistake.

We'll risk that and take him anyway.

You won't get as far as the end of the corridor.

Oh.

Oh.

Forgetting delusions of grandeur.

Forget them.

What do you mean?

That the unpleasant lady doctor was right.

The man we tried so hard to rescue is Kosnian.

Fingerprints don't lie.

Yeah, I know.

Well, think of the story you'll have to tell

our clients when he gets his memory back.

When did you find out?

It was kind of a habit left over from my lean days.

That cigarette I swiped from the house has Conniff's

prints on it, and as you say, they don't lie.

Well, you might have mentioned it.

Well, I forgot you smoked.

In the avenues and alleyways When the soul of a man is easy to buy,

everybody's wheelin', everybody's stealin', all the lower living are high.

Every city's got them, can we ever stop them? Some of us are gonna try.
