¶¶

Yes, what is it?

Room service, your breakfast, sir.

Yes, just a minute.

Okay, come in.

Morning, sir.

No! No!

Who was he?

Ephraim Silverstein, CIA, top echelon.

The job revolted him and
decided to end it all.

I think he'd have finished shaving.

There she is. Anne
Lawson, assistant librarian.

She looks harmless enough. I
could stamp my book any day.

If you could read.

Her real name is Christina Herzog.

She co-founded the
Dreisinger-Herzog terrorist unit.

She disappeared two years
ago when the gang dispersed

after the Frankfurt airport bombing.

She reappeared an hour amidst
five months ago. Since then,

she's been under full surveillance.

She seems to be unaware of our attentions.

Gaining in confidence, getting nicely
careless and carefree. Oh, by the way,

there's an old friend of yours
working alongside her. Yeah, who?

Six-seven.

Oh, Julie, I thought I
hadn't seen her around.

It's the best place to hide her from you,
a library. We got nothing until recently.

Christina disappeared a couple of times
overnight. So much for false surveillance.

It's time to fool her in.

The hotel job had the
stamp of Werner Dreisinger.

A couple of German gentlemen
were booked into the next room,

and one of the photo fits clicked.

Bring her in.

Yes, but remember, no frog
marching down the corridors.

Just a polite but firm pick-up.

Anyway, it'd be nice to see Julie again.
Oh, by the way, you'll need some props.

Here we are.

What have you got?

For six-seven.

Medieval England, the poet Chaucer.

I've got End of Term and Emma in Love.

Well, you always were the romantic type.

You want the children's
section, sir, across the aisle.

Thank you.

How does the poet Chaucer grab you?

I can live without him.

There's 12p to pay on this one.

Eh?

It's been done.

I couldn't get into that one. A bit dull.

Dull? The Middle Ages?

All that rape and pillage, you know.

Boring.

You didn't agree. It was a fait accompli.

I said I would help her
another time. You had no option.

You make the drop. Got that?

Got that?

Yes. 3-7 to Alpha. Alpha, come
in. There's a friend, a girl.

I need some back. Wait.

Forget the backup. Do not repeat. Do not
move in. If the friend leaves, go with.

Vanna says you're allowed
to come here as a sleeper.

Well, all right, sleeping beauty.

It's time to wake up.

She's leaving now, ma'am.

You got your orders?

Why are you calling?

Werner promised to keep me out of this.

I don't need that bitch to
come here and tell me what to do.

Wait. Tell him yourself.

Christina, listen to me.

Obey orders. You have no alternative.

Alternative?

You haven't changed.

For people like us, change
is a luxury we cannot afford.

There was a time when
it was still possible.

45 to Alpha. 45, come in. She's
using the payphone. Is it bugged?

The only one that isn't.

We have a bond, Tina Kint.

Remember that.

Yes, I remember.

Excuse me.

Thank you. Excuse me.

Hey, you, mister!

3-7-0-1 for this is an emergency.

The quarry's on a train
southbound from Wembley Park. 9-32, out.

Well, well... It took 95
seconds for her to reach a stop.

By the time I got a transport
man on, she was three stops gone.

Do you think she spotted you? No.

It's just routine precautions.

Changing buses, trains, standard
tactics. Anyway, we've got pictures of her.

They'll be going out on the wire.

We'll see what the
International Rules Gallery's come up with.

Sorry, sir.

Hey, stranger, where have you been?

Around.

Why don't you come up and take a rest?

I can rest down here, thanks.

It doesn't tally.

We've got an address for her on North 5.

It's probably a safe house.

That's it.

It's a pretty colourful area.

Stay on it. We're
checking out on the other girl.

She looks as mean as my bank manager.

He's a Scot, you know.

Oh, now, Bodie, I never
thought you would have supported

that popular misconception of the Scots.

You couldn't find a more generous race.

Really? So it's not true, then, sir?

Not a word of it.

Yeah, remember that, come Christmas.

Hi, babes.

Have you been waiting?

Sure. We've been waiting
for you all day, honey.

Nice.

Oh, damn.

Wow, we've got an abandoned venue!

Hold it!

Here we go again.

And next time I'll aim at you!

Come on, lady, throw that thing
down before one of us gets hurt.

You're fired eight, and one up the spout.

You could have got yourself killed.

Why don't you just do it?

I have people say I shot
a defenceless murderer.

Miss Herzog, you'd had this other room
in the name Freeman for seven weeks.

Six or seven.

And you hardly slept in it.

Once or twice.

You were at your place in North Five.

Yes.

All the time?

All the time.

Under your other alias? Yes.

Any other aliases?

We've been aware of you for some time.

So it seems.

How long have you been here?

A year, 15 months.

Where did you go after
the Frankfurt bombing?

Holland, Germany, France,
Germany, Belgium, Holland, you name it.

No.

Oh, yes.

You were trying to make a fresh start.

In what way, Miss Herzog? In what way?

It was not a case of realizing the error
of my ways. I still believe we were right.

We just weren't getting anywhere. So...

You came here to build a
new cadder, a new cell.

A new cell.

I came here to start a new life.

Who was the man Werner you
and your friend spoke of?

Is it Werner Dreisinger?

It was the girl who visited you.

Are they part of your fresh start?

So when you threw those
weapons in the canal,

it was part of your fresh start, was it?

Yes.

And why were they in protective wrappings?

They came like that.

Where from?

Your renowned
association with Werner Dreisinger

was far more than a political alliance.

Was it?

Was.

And still is, I think.

Heinrich?

You go in the day before as an
electrician. Do you have a pass? Yes, it was easy.

Plant explosives on the
fourth, sixth, ninth,

and thirteenth floors and in the elevator.

Detonate them to go off
at ten-minute intervals

after 11 a.m. on the next day, Friday.

On that day, we go in at 9.30,

dressed for the conference with
bootsies and grenades. Which we haven't got.

Christina will be here.

I wish I had your confidence.

You're so sure of her,
aren't you? Yes, I am.

Here are the targets.

Kemdish, Tellem, Zavek...

She should have been here by now.

We don't know where she hid the stuff, do
we? And we can't do anything without them.

Werner, it can't take all this time.

She'll be waiting for darkness.

Will she?

She's not coming.

She's all nice and cozy, dug in.

I could smell the formaldehyde.

Good morning.

May I speak with Miss Lawson, please?

I'm afraid Miss Lawson is with
the head librarian at present.

Can I take a message?

No.

No, thank you. I'll call again.

Public phone box.

Such powers of detection.

Yeah, heard the pips.

German?

Maybe the merest trace.

He used the term with.

May I speak with instead of to?

Such powers of detection.

Think I'll make out?

Will I? That's more to the point.
I mean, I couldn't talk to her.

They said she was with the librarian.

The librarian?

We'll call again in one hour.

Don't trust her, Werner.

Trust her?

She's better than any of us.

She may have been, but not now.

Someone's got to go there.

Talk her round.

And who's going to do that?

I'll go. No.

Get on with your work.
We're running out of time.

Class, you go. Find out
the location of the arms.

Good morning.

Good morning.

Please, sit down.

You get some sleep? Some. You
got your change of clothes, I see.

Yes, thank you.

Forensic, we're through with them.

Now, where were we?

I'm sure you know.

Yes.

Interrogation of
Christina Herzog resumed at...

19 a.m.

Any idea where I'd find ornithology?

Bitter?

Birds.

Study of birds.

I should ask one of the young ladies.

Here.

Just a minute, sir.

Considerably. How's Jack?

Stomach.

All right, take it easy.

The deceased was one Klaus
Bruchmann, wanted in three countries,

sentenced in absentia and two car
bombings, a Rautner kidnapping,

killing of a bank cashier.

Hmm. I did the world a favour.

Anything on the other girl yet?

An American, Karen
Vandenberg, a poor little

rich malcontent from
Boston, Massachusetts.

That's nasty. Silverstein was one of
her own. Probably led them to him.

Is she the tobacco heiress?

Yeah.

Karen was last reported with suspect
members of the Red Brigade in Milan.

La dolce vita.

That's not a million miles away
from a link-up with Werner Dreisinger.

How come she wasn't all that
comradely with Aramis Herzog?

I'm inclined to believe Christina was
allowed to disappear until a few weeks ago.

I wonder if they left her too long.

No, they don't usually
make mistakes like that.

You know, they operate, plant them at
university, pluck them at full bloom.

There's for life.

Yeah, she'd have to make
contact while she was here.

Getting the name Ann Lawson was easy.
Junkie disappeared two years ago. Yeah,

her boyfriend flogged her social
security number. I don't keep anything.

We know where the drop
was, but what was it for?

Three most wanted terrorists join a
fourth on this tight little island. Oh,

it has to be something big.

Yeah, well, who says
there's only four of them?

The tape of the call
Julie took didn't sound

like the fellow I spoke to at the library.

Dreisinger?

Too young.

You know, you're right.

There's probably a fifth.

Two down, three to go. And we've
taken the arms they badly wanted.

They're going to be in the market
before long. On your bikes, boys.

Fancy a quick blow-dry,
dear? Not very drunk.

Good afternoon.

Good afternoon.

Bobby's free.

Hell, I'm sure he is. Yeah, would you
like to speak to Mr Slater, please?

Oh, I don't know if you
can... Oh, I think he will for us.

Yep. Yeah.

Yeah.

Right.

Yes, yes, I know. I remember him.

Fondly, no doubt.

What do you want?

Putting your cards on
the table a bit early,

aren't you? No, I
mean, what's your poison?

Oh, it's very nice, make
it a social occasion. Yeah,

I'll have a large scotch if
you've got it. I've got it.

And you?

Oh, well, I think I might
have a small Cuba Libra.

Well, I think I'll have a pink gin.

You Navy?

Royal Marines.

You Army?

Paras.

So, you're into the private Army game, eh?

Listen, I thought we were going to be
sociable. For us, this is sociable.

All right, well, what do you want?

You know, I knew a guy
like him. Went to the

bar, saw a pretty
barmaid, forgot you around.

Yeah, well, you'll have to help yourself.

Look, everything I do is within the law.

Yeah, I know. I talked to some
of the guys you sent to Angola.

Look, I'm an agent. I
have to supply the contract.

Contracts are a very ugly word these
days. Yeah, just supplying that you do.

Keep that within the law.

Legitimate trade between legitimate
manufacturers and... And legitimate governments.

Yeah, yeah, we know.

Look, I'm an agent.

You want a chieftain?

Saracen or a scorpion?

Laser-guided missiles? You name it!

Come down a bit. What about handguns?

Machine pistols?

M60s, FNs, Berettas or Armalites?
How do you feel about terrorists?

Shoot the bloody lot of them. Queers?

Shoot the...

Anything that's moving around here,
we want to know, all right? Yeah.

From this to a bazooka.

Everything I do is legit.

Don't leave us out or the next set of
curlers you see won't be in your hair.

Good morning.

Morning. Is this some new
kind of interrogation technique?

Give the subject a reminder
of what freedom is all about.

Well, it's a lot less claustrophobic.

Science is a nice day. Let's have a walk.

Trees bugged, or are you radio-miked?

If the trees are
bugged, it's only greenfly.

I've got some bad news for you.

Oh?

We've got one of your people.

Oh.

Don't you want to know who?

Are you going to tell me?

I might.

Don't try to tell me he or she has talked.

He or she is dead.

Shot while attempting to escape.

Are you going to tell me what happened?

Somebody came calling on the library.

Ah.

You seem relieved, are you?

How do you know it
wasn't him that came calling?

We're talking about the
same person. He's the leader.

You're glad it wasn't him?

Am I?

All right.

Let's talk about why
you wanted to opt out.

I did opt out.

But they found you.

So did you.

They knew where to look.

So after you threw the weapons in the
canal, carefully wrapped up as they were,

what's your next move gonna be?

Try to disappear again, but
make a better job of it this time.

Go up north.

Not to a city, to a town.

London was my mistake.

What about the drop?

Birds and bees interlude over?

Subject of your
extradition comes up quite soon.

They'll kill me if you send me back.

In a security jail.

Are you really that naive?

The attack on the
Foreign Minister's conference.

Yes, Miss Herzog, I
wonder if it'll go ahead.

I wonder.

Take her in.

Thanks for the breath of fresh air.

There's a lot of it about.

Oh, we make it too easy for them.

It was announced weeks ago
that CIA man was heading

the advance party for the United States.

Yeah, well, they can't do much
without arms. Unless they get more arms.

Karen, you are making me nervous.

I am nervous. It's not
safe here. They have Klaus.

If they have got him,
they'll get nothing out of him.

Everything's going wrong.

She must have set him up at the library.
You must have walked straight into it.

She wouldn't do that.

You couldn't leave her out, could
you? The cool, beautiful Christina.

You never did forget that one.

We had to split the arm.

And now we've lost half of it.

All we need are machine
pistols. And grenades.

Is that all?

We have the money.

And money will buy anything in this town.

And who's going to use them? Three
of us can't handle this operation.

You know that is no problem.
We can always get more men.

We should cancel it.

No. It goes ahead as
planned, in every detail.

This wig irritates me so.

It doesn't take very much
to irritate you, does it?

Thanks, comrade.

Sir, a large unit, please.

Thanks a lot.

Cheers.

I believe this is your poison.

Over here they call it mother's ruin.

Well, that hasn't got to you yet.

Fraternal greetings from Julio.

Julio?

I couldn't care if they come from Alibaba.

I'm a businessman.

I'm here to do business.

Sounds like your friend Slater
might just be chancing his arm.

Yeah, we're on our way. There's
such a thing as traffic, you know.

Out.

Is it her or just some slag
he's having a thing with?

He took a lot of trouble
to shake off his tail.

Yeah.

Well, we'll soon find out. On account.

On account.

Hey, Slater, you've wet yourself.

And you always did, didn't you, Slater?

Yes.

Thanks, I needed that.

Pleasure.

He was in no rush to sell.

We are in a rush to buy.

What sort of a man was he?

Disgusting. Reeks of cheap scent.

Could kill the smell of blood, perhaps.

Ah, philosophy now.

Yes, dear? Two large gin
and tonics, with lemon.

No, thanks.

No, thanks.

Cheers. Who are you?
Your man couldn't make it.

Changed your mind, have you?
Don't want the merchandise,

right? Fine, thanks for the drink.

Wait.

There was no mention of a third party.

Yeah, well, there
wouldn't be, would there? That's

how we stay ahead. Have you got the money?

Have you got the merchandise?

I couldn't exactly bring
this stuff here, could I?

Look at the car! Which one?

Green Volvo!

All clear?

Yeah, but we'll have to dump this fast.

Who is he?

The arms man. Why bring him here?
I had no choice. We were ambushed.

Where are the weapons?

They're safe for right till dark.

Discount for cash.

Thanks.

First the goods, eh?

Yeah, well, your pal can
collect, I'll brief him.

And you?

I might have to impose on
your hospitality for a while.

All right.

Yeah, this job you're doing, when's it on?

Why?

Because I want to be
away and gone, that's why.

In a day or two.

Good.

Good luck with it.

Thanks. Don't tell me
you're a sympathizer.

I don't know what you're about.

I hardly think our aims are the same.

Look, if it's that discount that is
offended you... It will be put to good use.

I'm glad about that.

Who's this?

The arms man.

Ah, hello.

Mel?

We ran into trouble. I
had to bring him here.

And the weapons?

Safe.

Get them later. Good.

What happened?

We shot our way out. Got one of them.

Good.

So one left.

That's right. Get his gun.

Shut up. Don't you leave his car.

I was there, woman. Too
many things have gone wrong.

Where did you leave his car?

It's about five minutes away.

And you brought him here?

Find anything?

No.

You don't carry much, do you? I
suppose the line of my suits.

Listen, if you want this
stuff... Oh, yeah, yeah.

You know what happened to the menu shops?

He got up and walked away.

Oh, they found the car. Engine
hot. Weaver's still working.

Do you want me to get out there?

No, no, you're dead,
remember? We're pouring men in.

Yeah, well, I hope they
don't blow it. They won't.

Now, you are going to tell me. Now,
once again, what happened to the others?

I'm worried about the neighbors.

You worry about them.

What happened to Klaus?

Oh, Santa Claus, yeah, well, he
doesn't exist, don't you know?

We can't wait until dark. They'll
smoke this place out soon enough.

Then let's kill him.

Let me do it. I'll enjoy it.

Oh, no.

He is going to be our passport.

Heineck, you are right.

We'll have to abort the
operation, but there'll be another time.

Couldn't untie my hands
for a minute, could you?

It's all right. I can manage.

Karin, check out for that.

Hurry up.

Should I stop? No, keep going!

There's a call for you, sir.

Hello.

How do you like it there?

Who is that? A German
ambassador, of course.

Now listen to me.

We've got your man.

We'll do a trade, Christina and Klaus.

You'll get the details later.

That's not possible, I'm
afraid, unless you want his body.

And Christina?

Is in custody, awaiting the
outcome of extradition proceedings.

All right. A straight trade.

You'll get the instructions later.

O'Doyle, they're offering
a trade body for Herzog.

And?

What do you think?

I'd sooner not put it into words.

Your little shootout must have had an
audience. They're getting smart. Yes.

That's right. Yes.

Not immediately,
perhaps, but sooner or later.

Your friends are asking for your release.

Which means they've got
something or someone you want.

If they regard you as a traitor,
why would they ask for your release?

I don't know.

Our sources say you had an affair
with Dreisinger some years ago.

Our sources also say that you and
Dreisinger had a child, and that the child,

a son, is being looked
after by Dreisinger's parents.

What else do your sources say?

That he's still in love with you.

Karen put that flame out a long time ago.

Are you sure?

Are you really sure that she did?

Supposing, just supposing we
were prepared to consider a trade.

A trade? That's a nonsense.

You mean an exchange of
prisoners and a free passage?

The terms of such a
trade are not yet defined.

I'm merely asking what your attitude
would be about being handed over to Dreisinger.

When you know you're never going to be
safe, not even in jail, anything is tempting.

Nice sense of the macabre.

They send a wreath with their demands.
Are they ready to do an exchange? Oh,

they're ready, all right. And
they not only want Christina,

but also a plane tanked up
for 2,000 miles and piloted.

So we know where that's going.

A safe air route all the way.

What about Bodie?

Oh, he'll be released when we get there.

Well, they've got to go.

They could just throw Bodie
into the Bay of Biscay. What

guarantees have we got? Only there were.

And if we don't play ball?

We use the wreath.

Get ready.

Explosives.

Fifteen pounds.

Enough to blow you into minute pieces.

And you, of course.

Mind you, I couldn't have
wished for better company.

How's it designated? One of
Heinrich's ingenious little toys.

A remote control for model aeroplanes.

You turn the dial, and when
it reaches the frequency...

It detonates.

As you know, it has been used quite
effectively by many groups already.

How brave.

What do we do now?

We wait.

Do you think I could have a cigarette?

We don't smoke.

I'll take the leader.

Roger. Tiger Two in position. Okay.

Here they come.

It looks kosher.

Oh, yeah, it looks.

But be ready.

Not exactly rushing at it, are they?

Would you?

They hold all the cards.

And aces.

Are you ready to make the
exchange? We are. I want to see Christina.

Bring her out.

Christina, are you all right?

Yes.

How many men in your escort?

I've only seen two.

What weapons have they?

None visible.

Handguns, probably.

Have you followed all my instructions? To
the letter. Check the plane and the pilot.

How do I know my man's alive?

Oh, he's still alive.

How are things, Bodie?

I've known better, sir.

This bag contains... Shut up!

He wants to tell you about the
high explosives around his necks,

which will be detonated by me
should there be any mistakes.

No doubt you are experienced
with radio-controlled bombs.

I should add that if there are any
men hiding around here with RTs,

It could prove very dangerous.

What'll we do?

Nothing.

Everything checks out.
Pilot, charts, tanks are full.

Good.

Send Christina over here, slowly.

Such tender affection.

Hynek, you take the front.

Karin and you. He will be between us.

Christina, stay with me.

I've already warned you. Now move.

I hope Bodhi's up to it.

He will be.

The radios are worrying me.

I can't do anything about that, no.

Christina, go!

How long will you have to do it?

Thank you.
