00:00:30Mr. Keller wants this passed to London.
00:00:43Okay.
00:00:44Here you are, sir.
00:01:01Careful, the coffee is very hot.
00:01:06Thank you.
00:01:28Excuse me.
00:01:59This is Edmund, Captain.
00:02:28Mr. Keller would like to fly as low as possible over the island.
00:05:20Thank you very much.
00:05:48This tape contains all the information I have on the subject.
00:05:51I know you'll recognize the urgency and act on it immediately.
00:05:55I'd like to have seen you myself, but it's imperative that I stay here.
00:05:59Good luck, Hugh.
00:06:00Good morning.
00:06:25Good morning.
00:06:26Lovely day, isn't it?
00:06:28Are you Mr. Wingard?
00:06:30Right.
00:06:37Silly, Mr. Wingard.
00:06:38Very silly.
00:06:39Okay.
00:06:40Oh, poor Mr. Wingard.
00:07:00Oh, Mr. Wingard, it's good to see you.
00:07:26Oh, Mr. Wingard, it's good to see you.
00:07:55Mr. Drummond?
00:08:02Yes, sir.
00:08:03You wanted on the phone.
00:08:04Excuse me.
00:08:14Hugh Drummond here.
00:08:15You have a call for me.
00:08:18Hello, John.
00:08:19Don't you ever take a day off?
00:08:23About half an hour?
00:08:26Yeah.
00:08:27All right.
00:08:28Bye-bye.
00:08:29I say, Drummond, doesn't your group at Lloyd's
00:08:32insure most of the Keller organization?
00:08:36It's nasty business.
00:08:38It's going to cost us a great deal of money.
00:08:42Well, it may sound ghoulish, but as it happens,
00:08:45it's going to make us a great deal of money.
00:08:47Oh.
00:08:48Phoenician oil is almost certain to pick up
00:08:50Keller's concessions now.
00:08:52We've been after them for months,
00:08:54but Keller's always stood in our way.
00:08:56What is it, Peggy?
00:08:57Time for your medicine.
00:08:58Oh, Lord.
00:09:00Can I get you a drink, Mr. Drummond?
00:09:02Yes, have a drink.
00:09:03Ah, filthy muck.
00:09:05I think I'll have one, too.
00:09:06No, Mr. John.
00:09:07No?
00:09:08No.
00:09:09Mr. Drummond?
00:09:12Later, perhaps.
00:09:14Very well.
00:09:16You're wasting your time.
00:09:18Peggy's a very well brought up girl.
00:09:20Father's a bishop.
00:09:21But in spite of her, I'm going to have a drink.
00:09:24They tell me you knew a fellow named David Wingard.
00:09:28Yes, I still do.
00:09:30Not anymore.
00:09:31He's dead.
00:09:32Good heavens.
00:09:33How?
00:09:34Killed in a shooting accident.
00:09:36That doesn't sound like Wingard.
00:09:39He was a particularly careful man,
00:09:41especially about guns.
00:09:42This was a harpoon gun.
00:09:44He was, uh, skin diving.
00:09:46Oh, now I know there's something fishy.
00:09:48He couldn't swim.
00:09:51What you've just told me confirms my own suspicions.
00:09:54Wingard worked for me, you know.
00:09:56Exploratory work on oil fields.
00:09:59Two days ago, I got this cable from him.
00:10:02Imperative contact Henry Keller
00:10:04immediately matter life and death.
00:10:06Cable whereabouts, Wingard.
00:10:09Did you contact him?
00:10:11Ever tried to contact a man like Keller?
00:10:13Ran his whole damn shooting match from that plane.
00:10:16I tried, but couldn't.
00:10:18Next thing I hear is this.
00:10:20And you think that, uh, Wingard knew?
00:10:23Well, he must have known something.
00:10:25Hmm.
00:10:26What do you want me to do about it?
00:10:28Well, you're involved in two ways.
00:10:29First, the insurance on Keller's plane.
00:10:32Second, your friendship with Wingard.
00:10:35I'd appreciate it if you could find out what happened.
00:10:38Well, I'll try.
00:10:39Can I keep this?
00:10:41It's time for the Phoenician board meeting, Sir John.
00:10:43Right.
00:10:44It's a sick world, Hugh.
00:10:46Keller's dead.
00:10:48And because of it,
00:10:49do you know what I'll find around the Phoenician board table this morning?
00:10:53Nothing but a lot of happy, smiling faces.
00:10:56Please, gentlemen.
00:10:58Please, gentlemen.
00:11:01Sir John?
00:11:03I say it's an obligation.
00:11:05No matter what has happened,
00:11:07Phoenician is committed to pay,
00:11:10and we shall have to do so.
00:11:12A million pounds?
00:11:14You'd seriously pay out a million pounds of the shareholders' money
00:11:17when you don't have to?
00:11:18They'd boot you out of the next meeting if you did.
00:11:20And quite right to.
00:11:22A million pounds was the figure agreed, Bridge North.
00:11:25And anyway, why all the fuss?
00:11:28You know what the Sammacound oil concession means to us.
00:11:30Exactly.
00:11:31If we don't clear six million net profit in the first 18 months,
00:11:34I'll resign.
00:11:35And about time, too.
00:11:37Now, let's look at this situation realistically, shall we?
00:11:41Three months ago, we, Phoenician Oil,
00:11:44were approached by the representative of an unknown private party
00:11:47who suggested that Keller's objection to merging his oil fields with ours
00:11:52could be overcome inside six months
00:11:54in exchange for a fee of one million pounds.
00:11:57Now, Keller's dead.
00:11:59The merger will go through, and it needn't cost us a cent.
00:12:01And yet, two of our directors still want to pay out this million. Why?
00:12:05Because we have a contract.
00:12:07And when I make a contract, I stick to it.
00:12:10Rubbish!
00:12:13Yes?
00:12:14The young lady's here to see you now, sir.
00:12:16Thank you.
00:12:17Gentlemen, the other party's representative is here.
00:12:19Good. Let's get on with it.
00:12:22Good morning, Miss Aikman.
00:12:24Good morning.
00:12:25We have just been discussing what could be done about your proposition.
00:12:28But there's nothing to discuss, I'm sure.
00:12:31Mr. Keller no longer opposes the merger.
00:12:33Now you merely have to pay our fee.
00:12:36Thank you.
00:12:38We don't have to pay a cent.
00:12:40He didn't do anything.
00:12:42Keller's death was an act of God.
00:12:45Our contract did not call on us to do anything, gentlemen,
00:12:48except prove that Mr. Keller's opposition
00:12:51would be withdrawn before a specified date.
00:12:54Well, it has been withdrawn.
00:12:57She's absolutely right, you know.
00:13:00No reason whatsoever why we should...
00:13:03Gentlemen, I think we should take a vote.
00:13:06Those who feel that we are obligated to pay this fee
00:13:09should signify in the usual way.
00:13:11Those in favour of payment?
00:13:13Thank you.
00:13:14Four.
00:13:15Those against?
00:13:17Five.
00:13:20I also am in favour of paying.
00:13:22You see, Miss Aikman, we're deadlocked.
00:13:26Very well, then.
00:13:28I shall convey your decision to my principal.
00:13:31And perhaps we can meet again tomorrow.
00:13:33Yes, that's a good lass.
00:13:35Why not have him come up here himself?
00:13:37We'd all like to meet him.
00:13:39I'm afraid that would be impossible.
00:13:42Good day.
00:13:44Thank you, Miss Aikman.
00:13:45Thank you.
00:13:49It's a rather little cracker, that one.
00:13:51Why can't we employ agents like her?
00:13:54Item five, gentlemen.
00:13:58Thank you.
00:14:16Hi, Uncle Hugh.
00:14:17You're supposed to be in America.
00:14:19Yeah, well, something came up.
00:14:21How was she like?
00:14:22Angry. So was her father.
00:14:24You're not thinking of staying, are you?
00:14:27I live here, remember?
00:14:29Only when you're in London.
00:14:30So, I'm in London.
00:14:33And it's good to be home.
00:14:36You are pleased to see me.
00:14:38I'm overwhelmed.
00:14:41I mean, you haven't rented my room or anything, have you?
00:14:43That's a damn good idea. I wish I'd thought of it.
00:14:49It's good to see you again, Uncle Hugh.
00:14:51What have you been up to?
00:14:52Oh, this and that.
00:14:57That?
00:14:58Miss Ashenden, my nephew, Robert.
00:15:01How do you do?
00:15:02Hello, Miss Ashenden. Or may I call you...
00:15:05Miss Ashenden will be fine.
00:15:10Hey, look, if this is business or something...
00:15:13We've finished.
00:15:15We have?
00:15:20Well, then, maybe I should take the lady home.
00:15:23That won't be necessary.
00:15:25Well, we can't have you walking the streets alone.
00:15:27I never do.
00:15:30Hugh is driving me, aren't you, darling?
00:15:34Yeah.
00:15:41Good evening, sir.
00:15:56Welcome home and good evening, Mr. Bridgenorth.
00:16:09How did you get in?
00:16:14Who gave you this?
00:16:17What do you want?
00:16:21Think you can get round me, eh?
00:16:25Can't I?
00:16:27No.
00:16:32How very disappointing.
00:16:36I thought I'd never see you again.
00:16:40I thought I'd never see you again.
00:16:42How very disappointing.
00:16:46And I thought I'd...
00:16:50found a real man in you, Mr. Bridgenorth.
00:17:00Wait a minute.
00:17:02There's no need to be hasty.
00:17:08You could always try persuading me.
00:17:13Do you think I...
00:17:18could succeed?
00:17:22Try.
00:17:43Ahem.
00:17:47Nails are sharp.
00:18:01Penelope.
00:18:05Mr. Bridgenorth?
00:18:08Could it have been very nice, Mr. Bridgenorth?
00:18:10Now you're paralyzed.
00:18:12You can see and you can hear and you can feel.
00:18:17But you can't move and you can't talk.
00:18:20Oh, poor Mr. Bridgenorth.
00:18:22You see, it is a nasty old drug she carries in her ring.
00:18:26It only lasts just a few minutes.
00:18:28And doesn't leave any traces at all.
00:18:32Isn't that clever?
00:18:34The police will think you've committed suicide.
00:18:36Penelope, take his feet.
00:18:40Penelope.
00:19:11Bye-bye, Mr. Bridgenorth.
00:19:16Well, I have had men fall for me before, but never like this.
00:19:35Good morning, Miss Eggman.
00:19:37Good morning.
00:19:38Well, now, I have conveyed the news of your deadlock to my principal,
00:19:41but unfortunately he does insist that the contract must be honored and his fee paid.
00:19:47Oh, well, I see that our main objector is not here today.
00:19:52Well, in that case, perhaps, gentlemen, you would care to vote again?
00:19:56I really don't think it's as simple as that.
00:19:59Pay the girl.
00:20:00Am I to take that as a proposal?
00:20:02Sir John's right.
00:20:04Do pay her before someone else falls from a 15-story building.
00:20:10I think we might strike Mr. Weston's last remark from the record.
00:20:15Those in favor of paying?
00:20:22You may tell your principal the money will be paid as per contract.
00:20:26Thank you very much, gentlemen.
00:20:34Thank you.
00:20:35Thank you.
00:21:02Senor Drummond, sir.
00:21:06You are Senor Drummond?
00:21:08Yes, who are you?
00:21:10Carlogio, sir.
00:21:12I was Senor Wingard's servant.
00:21:15You may come inside.
00:21:17Would you like a drink?
00:21:21I was sorry to hear about Senor Wingard.
00:21:24Oh, you know? Who tell you?
00:21:27Sir John Bledlow had a cable from the police at Castellumali.
00:21:31The police, they're no good.
00:21:33When I tell them about the tape recording, they just laugh.
00:21:36What tape recording?
00:21:38All that morning, Senor Wingard talk into his tape machine.
00:21:42It's very important, he says.
00:21:44I come back from the market and find him dead.
00:21:47But there is no tape.
00:21:49There is only this.
00:21:53Nothing else?
00:21:55When the tape was pulled from the machine,
00:21:58this little piece was torn off.
00:22:01And you brought these things to me because of this address?
00:22:03Si, Senor. The whole tape was to come to you.
00:22:06It was arranged by Senor Wingard before he died.
00:22:09Carlogio, he said to me,
00:22:11I want you to go to London with a very important package for Senor Drummond.
00:22:15You make sure you give it to him and nobody else.
00:22:17Now he's murdered.
00:22:19And the tape that was the package is gone.
00:22:22But still I come.
00:22:25This is not enough here to make any sense.
00:22:29I may want to fly back with you.
00:22:31See if I can find out what's going on.
00:22:33Where are you staying?
00:22:35I stay with my cousin.
00:22:37Here is his address, in Camden Town.
00:22:39You want me to drive you?
00:22:41No, I don't want to drive you.
00:22:43I don't want to drive you.
00:22:45I don't want to drive you.
00:22:47I don't want to drive you.
00:22:49I don't want to drive you.
00:22:51Here is his address, in Camden Town.
00:22:53You want me to drive you?
00:22:55Grazie. It's no need. I'll meet him.
00:22:57Goodbye, sir.
00:22:59Goodbye, Carlogio.
00:23:02...the ruler and the act...
00:23:08...the ruler and the act...
00:23:19Oh, excuse me, please.
00:23:21Could you direct me to Montpelier Square?
00:23:23I'm sorry, I'm a stranger.
00:23:32Funny little man.
00:23:34To come all this way.
00:23:36Yeah, and our job is to find out why.
00:23:39We'll find out.
00:23:43Won't we, little man?
00:23:45Do you have to play around with everything?
00:23:48Really, now?
00:24:02...the ruler and the act...
00:24:06...the ruler and the act...
00:24:09What's an act?
00:24:11I don't know.
00:24:13Ruler sounds indigestible enough, but an act?
00:24:15Who ate them?
00:24:17Shut up, will you?
00:24:19Uncle Hugh.
00:24:21For goodness' sake, stop calling me uncle.
00:24:23Hugh, old man.
00:24:25Hugh is sufficient.
00:24:27Hey, I was just wondering.
00:24:29Are you going to be in tonight?
00:24:31Why?
00:24:33Just wondering.
00:24:35Entertaining?
00:24:37Kind of.
00:24:39What kind of?
00:24:41You know.
00:24:43I'm simply trying to find out whether I should put the breakables away or not.
00:24:45Last time you had a party, it cost me a great deal of money.
00:24:47Hey, no, nothing like that.
00:24:49No large young men panting hotly all over the furniture?
00:24:51Just me.
00:24:53Hmm.
00:24:55Well, try and get her out before daylight.
00:24:57I don't want the place to get a bad name.
00:25:03Who taught you to play?
00:25:05Chess.
00:25:09Sir John.
00:25:11Jack.
00:25:13He's a good teacher.
00:25:15He's too careful.
00:25:17Not bold enough in attack?
00:25:19My boldness is a refinement of my own.
00:25:23Well, it suits you.
00:25:27Check.
00:25:29Ah, a bad move.
00:25:31Good evening, Mr Drummond.
00:25:33And Miss Ashenden.
00:25:35Good evening, Mr Weston.
00:25:37Does Sir John know that you're playing games with Mr Drummond?
00:25:39I'm sure he will in the morning.
00:25:41Ah, not for me, dear lady.
00:25:43Not for me.
00:25:45Check.
00:25:49I was sorry to hear about Bridge North.
00:25:51Yes, that was most unfortunate.
00:25:53May I?
00:25:55Did you know him well?
00:25:57Only by reputation.
00:25:59Excuse me, sir.
00:26:01Your guest is here.
00:26:03Perhaps we can finish at another time.
00:26:05Excuse me.
00:26:07Now, my dear.
00:26:09Shall we play another game?
00:26:11Chess.
00:26:13I'll take her.
00:26:15Yours or mine?
00:26:17Yours.
00:26:19Robert's got company.
00:26:25You lay a finger on me, Robert Drummond,
00:26:27and I'll bite it off.
00:26:29Now, Brenda, stop playing hard to get.
00:26:31I am hard to get.
00:26:33But it's worth the effort.
00:26:41I'd like another drink, please.
00:26:45I do all sorts of things when I'm tired.
00:26:51Specially bottled
00:26:53for Hugh Drummond, Esquire.
00:26:55I'd like to meet your uncle.
00:26:57No, you wouldn't.
00:26:59He's old.
00:27:01But I like older men.
00:27:03Not that old.
00:27:07I bet your uncle doesn't behave like this.
00:27:09Oh, yes, he does.
00:27:11Really?
00:27:13Him being so old, too?
00:27:15He's got a good memory.
00:27:19Now, Brenda.
00:27:23Oh!
00:27:31The door.
00:27:33I know.
00:27:35Aren't you going to answer it?
00:27:37They'll go away.
00:27:41I'll go.
00:27:43Might be someone fascinating.
00:27:45We could have a party.
00:27:53Good evening.
00:27:55Does Mr. Drummond live here?
00:27:57He does.
00:27:59I have a package for him.
00:28:03Perhaps you'd be kind enough
00:28:05to see he gets it.
00:28:07Oh, of course.
00:28:09Thank you.
00:28:11Good night.
00:28:13Good night.
00:28:17Satisfied?
00:28:19It's for you.
00:28:21Oh.
00:28:27Who's sending me cigars?
00:28:33It's for my uncle.
00:28:35Can I have one?
00:28:37What?
00:28:39A cigar.
00:28:41Of course not.
00:28:43Why shouldn't women smoke cigars?
00:28:45It's not ladylike.
00:28:47They make me feel sexy.
00:29:11You look like a fallen woman.
00:29:13I haven't fallen.
00:29:15Yet.
00:29:21Let me give you a push.
00:29:31I promised to stay out this evening,
00:29:33but you didn't need to shoot at me.
00:29:35It was her cigar.
00:29:41Catch your girlfriend, Robert.
00:29:43Catch your girlfriend, Robert?
00:29:45I think she's going to faint.
00:29:49Hey, Brent.
00:29:51Brent.
00:29:53What shall I do with her?
00:29:55Put her on the bed and loosen her.
00:29:57Put her on the bed?
00:29:59Your bed.
00:30:01Smoke too much, these young girls.
00:30:05Hello?
00:30:07This is Hugh Drummond.
00:30:09I'd like to see Mr. Boxer.
00:30:12All right.
00:30:14I'm on my way.
00:30:41I'm on my way.
00:31:11I'm on my way.
00:31:25To the back.
00:31:29Just a bit more.
00:31:31Yes?
00:31:33Mr. Drummond is here.
00:31:35Send him in.
00:31:45How have you been, Hugh?
00:31:47Sit down. Nice to see you.
00:31:49Hello, Boxer.
00:31:51I never did like those tourist beaches.
00:31:53Oh.
00:31:55I'm sorry.
00:31:57I never did like those tourist beaches.
00:31:59Oh.
00:32:03There.
00:32:05Is that better?
00:32:07Instant vacations, yeah?
00:32:11Only sort I can get.
00:32:13I've been officially dead for three years.
00:32:15Want a drink?
00:32:17You're a dead man. You're making an awful lot of money.
00:32:19Well, even dead men have to live.
00:32:21Getting old, though.
00:32:23Only the clean trade interests me these days.
00:32:25A bank here, a train there,
00:32:27all good, clean fun.
00:32:29And who misses it?
00:32:31The insurance companies.
00:32:33Not yours, though. Never yours.
00:32:35What's on your mind?
00:32:37Old-fashioned murder.
00:32:39Who? When?
00:32:41Relax. I don't want anybody killed.
00:32:43I want to find a killer.
00:32:45Who's been killed?
00:32:47Killer. A chap called Henry Bridgenorth
00:32:49and David Wingard.
00:32:51David?
00:32:53Oh.
00:32:55And tonight,
00:32:57I received a box of cigars.
00:32:59A two-two slug inside
00:33:01each one of them,
00:33:03and a very neat firing mechanism.
00:33:05Yeah.
00:33:07Doesn't ring a bell.
00:33:09I'll have to check.
00:33:11I've got Hugh Drummond with me.
00:33:13We're old buddies. Anything I have is his.
00:33:15Yeah.
00:33:17He wants to know who killed a mutual friend,
00:33:19David Wingard, old Henry Keller,
00:33:21Mr...? Bridgenorth.
00:33:23Bridgenorth.
00:33:25Yeah. Also, who sent him a box of cigars, loaded ones?
00:33:27Yes, sir.
00:33:29We keep up-to-date records and everything.
00:33:31We have to. Chicago, New York,
00:33:33Beirut, Hong Kong.
00:33:35I've even got my own private hot wire to Moscow.
00:33:37And what we haven't got on file,
00:33:39we can get by teletype the same day.
00:33:41Korea?
00:33:43You're a sentimentalist, Boxer.
00:33:45Digging that tunnel was the only honest work
00:33:47I ever did in my life.
00:33:49What a lousy escaper.
00:33:51We escaped, didn't we?
00:33:53Yeah?
00:33:55We have records of Keller and Bridgenorth.
00:33:57Both accidents, it says here.
00:33:59Nothing on Wingard at all.
00:34:01The cigars were bought from the Old Gate bomb specialist
00:34:03by a bird.
00:34:05No information on the bird, except she was a looker.
00:34:09That's it, Huey boy.
00:34:11I'll call you if I hear any more.
00:34:13It sounds to me as if you're up against a lone wolf,
00:34:15and that can be rough.
00:34:17And...
00:34:19you'll stay alive, huh?
00:34:21You too, Huey boy.
00:34:25Oh, ask the young lady
00:34:27to come down again, will you?
00:34:31The young lady.
00:34:37I think we're up to the back, darling.
00:34:39That's it.
00:34:47Come on.
00:35:17Come on.
00:35:47Oh!
00:35:49Oh!
00:36:11What's the matter?
00:36:13Aren't the odds good enough for you anymore?
00:36:17I don't know.
00:36:19Oh!
00:36:45I want a word with you, my friend.
00:36:47My legs.
00:36:49Yeah, that's exactly what I intend to do.
00:36:51Let me out! Let me out!
00:36:53Who sent you?
00:36:57A woman, some woman. She paid us.
00:36:59She told us to kill you and make you look like a mugging.
00:37:01What woman?
00:37:03I never saw her before.
00:37:05She contacted me and I got hold of the others.
00:37:07She never told us nothing about it.
00:37:09She just paid us and told us what to do.
00:37:11I think I'll break your legs anyway.
00:37:13This girl is all I know.
00:37:15I never saw her before!
00:37:27Better look after your friend.
00:37:29I think his feet are killing him.
00:37:39What are you doing there?
00:37:41Oh.
00:37:43Well, she decided she didn't want to go home.
00:37:45And she didn't want to...
00:37:49Well, I like sleeping on the couch.
00:37:51Well, how is she?
00:37:53Oh, she's fine. Asleep.
00:37:55No, I'm not.
00:37:59Is this your uncle, Robert?
00:38:01Uncle Hugh.
00:38:03This is Brenda.
00:38:05Hello, Brenda.
00:38:07Hello, Uncle Hugh.
00:38:09How are you feeling?
00:38:11I'll get her.
00:38:17Well, night, Uncle.
00:38:19Night, Robert.
00:38:27She's upset.
00:38:29Well, that makes two of you.
00:38:31Good night.
00:38:41Hey!
00:38:43I haven't got a glass.
00:38:45I'll get you one.
00:38:49Thank you.
00:38:51Well, good night.
00:38:55Good night.
00:39:07I'm terribly sorry.
00:39:09I'm terribly sorry.
00:39:11But there doesn't seem to be a key to this door.
00:39:13I think I ought to...
00:39:15Why don't you try putting the chair under the handle?
00:39:17Oh, all right.
00:39:19Good night.
00:39:29I can't seem to fix this chair.
00:39:33Would you like me to do it for you?
00:39:35Would you?
00:39:37Good pleasure.
00:40:03Good morning.
00:40:05Mm.
00:40:09Pretty sneaky of her...
00:40:11creeping off like that in the middle of the night.
00:40:13Well, it's understandable.
00:40:15She had a rough night, you know.
00:40:17Yeah.
00:40:21Uh, Hugh, old man.
00:40:23Uh, Hugh.
00:40:25I, uh...
00:40:27No, I'm not going out tonight.
00:40:29You'll have to let your urges run wild somewhere else.
00:40:31No, it's not that.
00:40:33Uh, you couldn't loan me 100 quid, could you?
00:40:35No.
00:40:37What for?
00:40:39Well, I wanted to buy some warm-weather clothes.
00:40:41I've got an invitation.
00:40:43Where to?
00:40:45Well, this friend of mine has got a yacht, and he's cruising all around the Mediterranean.
00:40:47You mean you might be leaving?
00:40:49I'm afraid so. I'm sorry.
00:40:51I'm gonna leave this blank.
00:40:53Just fill it in for whatever you want.
00:40:55Oh, thank you.
00:40:57I'll pay you back, of course.
00:40:59Anytime.
00:41:01I always go to Spindles in Knightsbridge.
00:41:03Oh, is Pogo gonna be proud of me?
00:41:05Who's Pogo?
00:41:07He's the guy with the yacht.
00:41:09See ya.
00:41:15Drummond?
00:41:17Hello, John.
00:41:19Where?
00:41:21The Pan-Arabian oil building?
00:41:23All right, I'll be there.
00:41:25Bye.
00:41:31Oh!
00:41:33Hey, why don't you look where you're...
00:41:39Well, excuse me.
00:41:41Let me give you a hand.
00:41:43I'm terribly sorry.
00:41:45Oh, it's my fault. My fault.
00:41:47Thank you.
00:41:49Hey, is that yours or mine?
00:41:51It's mine.
00:41:53Oh, no, no, it's not.
00:41:55Hey, I got a great idea.
00:41:57What?
00:41:59Hey, I got a great idea.
00:42:01My car's right here.
00:42:03Why don't we just lump everything in the back
00:42:05and go someplace where we can sort it out properly?
00:42:07What a lovely idea.
00:42:15My principal's proposal
00:42:17is a very simple one, gentlemen.
00:42:19Your company would like to acquire
00:42:21the oil rights in Akmata on a royalty basis.
00:42:23That is right.
00:42:25The new king, however,
00:42:27would like to acquire the rights himself,
00:42:29actually in competition
00:42:31with your interest in that area.
00:42:33My principal believes
00:42:35he can arrange for you to be granted the rights
00:42:37within three months.
00:42:39Providing you pay him
00:42:41a fee of one million pounds.
00:42:45Miss Eckman?
00:42:47Thank you.
00:42:49My principal estimates
00:42:51the main Akmata field
00:42:53will yield a minimum of 90,000.
00:42:55And I repeat, 90,000 barrels a day.
00:42:57The first year's profits
00:42:59will not be less
00:43:01than 12 million pounds
00:43:03with an expansion to adjacent fields.
00:43:05Is it as hard as that
00:43:07to get a concession in Akmata?
00:43:09I would have said impossible.
00:43:11Every major company's after it,
00:43:13but the king is determined to work the fields himself.
00:43:15Well, how does her boss think he's
00:43:17going to get him to change his mind?
00:43:19Heaven knows. Short of bloodshed.
00:43:21Of course, if someone should assassinate the king.
00:43:23What did you say?
00:43:25I said if someone should assassinate the king.
00:43:27Assassinate the ruler,
00:43:29and the Akmata
00:43:31concession is yours.
00:43:33Assassinate the ruler
00:43:35and the Akmata concession.
00:43:37Eat the ruler
00:43:39and the Ak.
00:43:41What are you raving about?
00:43:43Sorry, John.
00:43:45I think I just solved a problem.
00:43:47Mr. Weston?
00:43:49Miss Eckman, may I ask what guarantee we have
00:43:51that your principal...
00:43:53Is that the Weston on your board?
00:43:55She sits on half a dozen boards.
00:43:57She's a very good man.
00:43:59Well, he could soon be a very dead one.
00:44:01Tell me, how can I have a look at this Eckman character?
00:44:03Well, I should think the best way
00:44:05is to look through the door.
00:44:09As I've said before, gentlemen,
00:44:11the million pounds will only be payable
00:44:13if my principal is successful
00:44:15in getting you what you want.
00:44:17If he isn't, no fee.
00:44:19Thank you. That is all I have to say today.
00:44:21When does the meeting break up?
00:44:23Oh, any time now.
00:44:25Can you get Weston in here?
00:44:27Well, I can try.
00:44:29It only remains for me to thank Miss Eckman
00:44:31for coming to us with this very interesting proposition
00:44:33and to say that it will get all our attention
00:44:35and we'll communicate with her
00:44:37when we have reached a decision.
00:44:39Will you excuse me?
00:44:41Well, John, what's it all about?
00:44:43Look, Weston, a little friendly advice.
00:44:45Stay clear of Eckman.
00:44:47What?
00:44:49If I were you, I'd choose my dinner companions
00:44:51rather more carefully.
00:44:53That is, unless you want to wind up
00:44:55with something more painful than indigestion.
00:44:59What the devil's he talking about?
00:45:11Taxi!
00:45:41Taxi!
00:46:01Oh, darling, it's me.
00:46:05You mustn't go to sleep, you know.
00:46:07We've so much to talk about.
00:46:11And to...
00:46:23Oh, I like you, you know.
00:46:25And I would much rather be nice to you.
00:46:29But Eckman will be back soon.
00:46:33And she will be absolutely livid if you haven't talked.
00:46:37So be a good boy, please.
00:46:41Tell me all about Carlozzo and your uncle.
00:46:43Hmm?
00:46:45Ah!
00:47:11That is a very untidy job, Penelope.
00:47:13Very untidy.
00:47:15Has he talked yet?
00:47:17He won't tell me anything.
00:47:19Of course not. Now get dressed. We have to leave.
00:47:21Oh, what a shame.
00:47:23Just as we were getting to know each other.
00:47:25Get dressed, I said, Penelope.
00:47:27And I told you before not to wear my negligee.
00:47:31Oh, I didn't think you'd mind.
00:47:33I do mind.
00:47:41Hey, look, I don't mind.
00:47:43I'm sorry.
00:47:45Come on.
00:47:49Come on.
00:47:57Hey.
00:47:59Now, you have to hurry it up.
00:48:01We have one more job to do before we catch the plane.
00:48:05And that is mine, too.
00:48:07Oh, sorry.
00:48:09Penelope, one of these days,
00:48:11your light-fingered habits are going to get you into deep trouble.
00:48:13Penelope, one of these days,
00:48:15your light-fingered habits are going to get you into deep trouble.
00:48:39Come on now, quick.
00:48:43Come on.
00:49:07No, it's good.
00:49:09I didn't know you went into this kind of thing, Robert.
00:49:17Don't struggle.
00:49:19You'll choke yourself.
00:49:23That's a nasty burn.
00:49:25You really ought to learn how to control your girlfriends, you know.
00:49:33That was my foot, you know.
00:49:39That's interesting.
00:49:43That's a time clock, you know.
00:49:49Bit of a night, huh?
00:49:55Here, let's have this off you.
00:49:59That's better.
00:50:01I don't think I'll ever forgive you for that.
00:50:03I'm asking gratitude for you
00:50:05after I saved your life.
00:50:07You didn't.
00:50:09I died back there at five seconds to zero.
00:50:11You don't look too good.
00:50:13I'll drop you at the hospital and pick you up in half an hour.
00:50:15Where are you going?
00:50:17To see a chap called Weston
00:50:19when he gets himself killed.
00:50:29Mr. Weston, please, it's very urgent.
00:50:31I'm sorry, Mr. Weston's engaged.
00:50:33I say, that's very rude.
00:50:35Let me...
00:50:43No, no, stay there.
00:50:45Is this a way out?
00:50:47You'd better call the police.
00:51:05By the time I got downstairs,
00:51:07they'd disappeared, of course.
00:51:09They're pretty smooth operators, that's for sure.
00:51:11What happens now?
00:51:13I'll bet for you.
00:51:15You'd better tell me how to get in touch
00:51:17with that friend of yours.
00:51:19Which friend?
00:51:21Banjo, or whatever you call him.
00:51:23Pogo. What for?
00:51:25He can't have you gallivanting around the Mediterranean
00:51:27looking like that.
00:51:29It'll scare the girls to death.
00:51:31You can get in touch with him through the embassy.
00:51:33Which embassy?
00:51:35Acmata. Just say you have a message for King Federer.
00:51:37Pogo?
00:51:39Well, that's what we called him at Princeton.
00:51:41Tell me,
00:51:43where were you going to pick this yacht up?
00:51:45A place called, uh,
00:51:47Castellumali.
00:51:49That's where Wingard was killed.
00:51:51All right, my boy.
00:51:53Castellumali it is.
00:51:57Would you enter, please?
00:51:59You are fortunate, sir.
00:52:01Very, very, very fortunate.
00:52:05We are very fortunate.
00:52:09It was rented for three months,
00:52:11but the tenant had a slightly fatal accident.
00:52:13Most unfortunate for him,
00:52:15but most fortunate for you,
00:52:17because this desirable residence
00:52:19is now empty.
00:52:21What about that desirable residence?
00:52:23Ah, the castello.
00:52:25Magnifico.
00:52:27It belonged to
00:52:29Mr. Peterson.
00:52:31Yes, Carl Peterson.
00:52:33A very rich gentleman
00:52:35with many beautiful things.
00:52:37And the ladies.
00:52:39Mamma mia.
00:52:41The ladies up there
00:52:43in the castello are the most
00:52:45beautiful ladies I have ever seen.
00:52:47But on to business.
00:52:53You will see we are furnished
00:52:55in the grand style.
00:52:57Everything of the best
00:52:59and almost new.
00:53:03Now.
00:53:05Oh.
00:53:07Oh.
00:53:09Who did such a thing and why?
00:53:11No, no, no, no, no, no.
00:53:13You can't stay here.
00:53:15I will find something anywhere.
00:53:17I like it here.
00:53:19I want to stay here.
00:53:21Magnifico.
00:53:23I need somebody to bring the bags up
00:53:25and somebody to clean up.
00:53:27And don't worry, I'm eminently satisfied.
00:53:35Charming.
00:53:37Charming.
00:53:39I'm glad we're eminently satisfied.
00:53:47You recognize that?
00:53:49Oh, vividly.
00:53:53Penelope was here.
00:53:57What were they looking for?
00:53:59Well, if you'd stolen
00:54:01a very valuable tape recording,
00:54:03when you played it, there was a piece missing.
00:54:05You'd want to find that piece, wouldn't you?
00:54:07Ah, ain't the ruler in the act?
00:54:09Right.
00:54:13It's a grim-looking place, isn't it?
00:54:15Hmm, but interesting.
00:54:17Boy, you bet. All those beautiful girls?
00:54:19No, but whoever lives up there
00:54:21has been watching us through a telescope
00:54:23ever since we got here.
00:54:51Hey!
00:55:13Hey, brother!
00:55:15Oh!
00:55:17Hey!
00:55:19On your feet, man! Salons are out of date!
00:55:31Ah, you remembered.
00:55:35Well, welcome aboard, my brooker.
00:55:37Boy, this king business
00:55:39has really gone to your head.
00:55:41Where's the harem?
00:55:43Oh, I didn't think there was a need for that.
00:55:45You didn't think what?
00:55:47You were in America, didn't you?
00:55:49Yes, we did, Pogo.
00:55:53Oh, excuse me. Pogo, this is my uncle Hugh Drummond.
00:55:57Hugh, Pogo.
00:55:59How do you do, Mr. Drummond?
00:56:01Roberts told me a great deal about you.
00:56:03Your company insures our new airline, doesn't it?
00:56:05That's right, sir.
00:56:07We've struck oil, Mr. Drummond.
00:56:09A big field.
00:56:11And all the oil companies in the world
00:56:13are chasing after me for a deal.
00:56:15Forget it.
00:56:17Over my dead body.
00:56:19Some people seem to be taking
00:56:21that last remark literally, sir.
00:56:23You mean it, don't you, Mr. Drummond?
00:56:25Yes, I do.
00:56:27I suppose it's possible.
00:56:29We Middle Eastern monarchs
00:56:31seem to have a pretty precarious existence.
00:56:33No point in shortening the odds there.
00:56:35No, there isn't.
00:56:37Are you talking generally or in particular?
00:56:39In particular.
00:56:41I see. Where and where?
00:56:43That I don't know either.
00:56:45But if past experience is anything to go by,
00:56:47it'll be a well-contrived accident.
00:57:13Good afternoon.
00:57:15Mr. Drummond?
00:57:17Yes?
00:57:19Mr. Carl Peterson would be honoured
00:57:21if you'd have dinner with him at the castle this evening.
00:57:237.30?
00:57:25Tell Mr. Peterson I'd be delighted.
00:57:35What about Poco's party?
00:57:37Well, I have to give it a miss.
00:57:39But you go
00:57:41and stick close to him, huh?
00:57:43With his travelling companions,
00:57:45that'll be a pleasure.
00:58:11You're Robert Drummond, aren't you?
00:58:13I am.
00:58:15We're friends of Pogo's.
00:58:17He's giving a party.
00:58:19He sent us both to fetch you.
00:58:21Did he now?
00:58:23Hey, you, I'm going to the party.
00:58:25Hey, come on.
00:58:27Aren't you coming?
00:58:29No, I'm afraid not.
00:58:31Oh, please.
00:58:33No, I'll get my clothes wet.
00:58:35Let's go.
00:58:37Let's go.
00:59:07Let's go.
00:59:37Welcome, Mr. Drummond.
01:00:07Come this way.
01:00:29Mr. Drummond is here.
01:00:31Your Japanese is very good.
01:00:37Hello, Drummond.
01:00:39I thought you'd never get here.
01:00:41I would have been here sooner,
01:00:43but I stayed in London for your cremation.
01:00:45I'll return the compliment.
01:00:47I'll make a point of going to yours.
01:00:51Mitsuko says that you speak very good Japanese.
01:00:53You're a man of wide accomplishments, Drummond.
01:00:55And so are you, it seems, Weston.
01:00:57Ah, Peterson.
01:00:59Which is it?
01:01:01Peterson.
01:01:03Carl Peterson.
01:01:05Weston's dead, long live Peterson.
01:01:09By the way,
01:01:11who is dead?
01:01:13That little man who worked for Wingard, Carlaggio?
01:01:15Mm-hmm.
01:01:17Your health, Drummond.
01:01:25It had occurred to me
01:01:27that I might not be able to persuade you up here.
01:01:29And then I reasoned with you
01:01:31that your curiosity would probably
01:01:33get the better of your judgment.
01:01:35Well, you were right.
01:01:37I usually am.
01:01:39Doesn't it worry you that I might whip out a gun
01:01:41and blow your block off?
01:01:43No.
01:01:45In the first place, there's too much you want to know.
01:01:47And in the second, you don't have a gun.
01:01:49There's a metal detector just inside the front door,
01:01:51which would have sounded an alarm
01:01:53if you'd been armed.
01:01:55And anyway,
01:01:57our sort don't carry guns.
01:01:59We use this
01:02:01to get what we want.
01:02:03And I assume
01:02:05you have got what you want.
01:02:07It is rather charming, isn't it?
01:02:09Oh, so cozy.
01:02:11You must allow me to show you the rest of it.
01:02:13You will stay for the weekend, of course.
01:02:15No.
01:02:17I haven't brought my pajamas.
01:02:19My dear fellow, everything in this house
01:02:21is yours for the asking.
01:02:23Isn't it, Anna?
01:02:26Yours for the asking, Drummond.
01:02:29Well, thanks a lot,
01:02:31but I prefer to roll my own.
01:02:55This is what I like to call
01:02:57my operations room.
01:02:59It's the nerve center
01:03:01of my organization.
01:03:03I have others, of course,
01:03:05but this is the one I choose to use at present.
01:03:07Mr. Peterson.
01:03:09Yes, Magda?
01:03:11The American stock has fallen two points.
01:03:13Should we
01:03:15start buying soon?
01:03:17No, it'll drop another ten tonight.
01:03:19The president of the company is due to commit suicide
01:03:21about now.
01:03:23There's no better way
01:03:25of devaluing stock
01:03:27than to have the president of the company blow his brains out.
01:03:29Or crash his private aircraft.
01:03:31Ah, Keller.
01:03:33Phoenician wanted an oil concession.
01:03:35I got it for them, that's all.
01:03:37Would you like to lead the way?
01:03:39Oh!
01:03:51Beauty and the beast, huh?
01:03:53Ooh!
01:03:57You've met Grace, of course.
01:03:59She's one of our new girls.
01:04:01There are certain things they have to learn
01:04:03before I send them out to work.
01:04:05Chang there teaches them self-defense.
01:04:07Chang,
01:04:09come and shake hands
01:04:11with Mr. Drummond.
01:04:37Sorry if I upset the hired hand.
01:04:39Even bad help
01:04:41is hard to come by these days.
01:04:43Dinner in half an hour, Chang.
01:04:45You'll join us, my dear.
01:04:47We must arrange a proper match
01:04:49between you and Chang someday.
01:04:51He's a black belt, you know.
01:04:53Hmm.
01:04:55Well, you'd better tell him to use it
01:04:57to keep his pants up with, then.
01:04:59Ha-ha.
01:05:08Interestingly lethal collection.
01:05:11Like the young women
01:05:13you seem to have around here.
01:05:15My operations cover a wide sphere.
01:05:17In Japan, I use Mitsuko.
01:05:19Tanya and Remy are in Brazil just now.
01:05:21Gerd is in Germany,
01:05:23and Anna here looks after India.
01:05:25It really becomes quite difficult
01:05:27to keep track of them all sometimes.
01:05:29Hmm. Bet you'll manage.
01:05:31Ha-ha.
01:05:33I can't tell you what a pleasure it is
01:05:35to have someone to talk to again.
01:05:37Someone outside my own circle, that is.
01:05:39Your friend Wingard was the last.
01:05:41Capital chess player.
01:05:43Very intelligent man.
01:05:45Not intelligent enough, sir.
01:05:47On the contrary.
01:05:49Like yourself, too intelligent.
01:05:51He became inquisitive.
01:05:53Irritating.
01:05:55Well, it was a nuisance, you know.
01:05:57But then it brought you here,
01:05:59so it has its compensations.
01:06:01Oh, my dears.
01:06:03Mr. Drummond,
01:06:05Miss Eckman.
01:06:09How do you do?
01:06:11And our little Penelope.
01:06:13Hello.
01:06:15Our little Penelope
01:06:17has already made contact with my nephew.
01:06:19Such a handsome young man.
01:06:21Yes, you made quite an impression
01:06:23on him, too.
01:06:25Really?
01:06:29Ha-ha-ha.
01:06:31You see, Drummond, in big business
01:06:33huge sums of money depend on
01:06:35the ability of one man.
01:06:37Competitors fight in every way they know
01:06:39to bring that man down.
01:06:41They employ complicated and expensive
01:06:43methods.
01:06:45Stock deals, market rigging,
01:06:47price cutting.
01:06:49It never entered anyone's head
01:06:51that there was a far simpler way
01:06:53of getting what one wanted.
01:06:55Until you came along.
01:06:57My method is simplicity itself.
01:06:59The man stands in your way.
01:07:01Dispose of that man.
01:07:03And how do you propose to dispose
01:07:05of King Federer?
01:07:07An accident, of course.
01:07:09Shipboard explosion, all hands lost at sea,
01:07:11splendid obituaries in the Times.
01:07:13And I
01:07:15shall be a million pounds the richer.
01:07:17Eckman?
01:07:19Yes, Carl.
01:07:21Now, Mr. Drummond, we must make sure
01:07:23that nobody expects you home this evening.
01:07:26Magda.
01:07:28Yes, Miss Eckman?
01:07:30Mr. Drummond would like to speak
01:07:32to his nephew aboard the Royal Yacht.
01:07:34Yes, Miss Eckman.
01:07:36Make the call as simple as possible.
01:07:38We can cut it off from here.
01:07:40Mr. Robert Drummond is waiting.
01:07:42Hello, Robert.
01:07:44Hi.
01:07:45Enjoying yourself?
01:07:46Oh, yes, swinging.
01:07:47Where are you speaking from?
01:07:48I'm up at the castle.
01:07:50I've been invited to spend the weekend.
01:07:52Oh?
01:07:54Is everything all right, then?
01:07:55Oh, fine.
01:07:57Well, I think Pogo will probably be upset.
01:07:59He took quite a shine to you.
01:08:00Well, people sometimes do.
01:08:02Take care of yourself.
01:08:04Hello?
01:08:06Hugh?
01:08:12Chang.
01:08:14Offer Mr. Drummond a cigar.
01:08:16Oh, let me.
01:08:20Hmm.
01:08:22Corona, corona.
01:08:24Now, I don't think I will.
01:08:26My friends told me
01:08:28they're not very good for your health.
01:08:30Ha, ha, ha!
01:08:32I do like a man
01:08:34who can retain his sense of humor.
01:08:36It is rather comical, isn't it?
01:08:38What is?
01:08:39I mean, the whole thing.
01:08:41The girls, the castle,
01:08:43Fu Manchu over there.
01:08:45Even you, I suppose.
01:08:48My dears,
01:08:50Mr. Drummond is trying to provoke me.
01:08:54He can provoke me
01:08:57any time.
01:08:59You always did have the morals
01:09:01of an alley cat, Penelope.
01:09:03Yes, because I like mine.
01:09:05No, dear, you like anything,
01:09:07just as long as it isn't yours.
01:09:09I like when...
01:09:12What exactly is it
01:09:15that you find so amusing?
01:09:17Oh, the whole thing's so theatrical, isn't it?
01:09:20I mean, I grant the girls
01:09:22have got some conceivable purpose,
01:09:24but what about old Fatso over there?
01:09:27What's he for?
01:09:28I advise you to be careful, Drummond.
01:09:30Chang's English is very good.
01:09:32What's more, I'd like to say about his buttling.
01:09:34He slops coffee in the saucer.
01:09:36He... he...
01:09:39No, Chang!
01:09:41I don't know what you hope to achieve by this, Drummond,
01:09:44but I advise you to stop it.
01:09:46No, Carl, dear.
01:09:48Let him go on.
01:09:50It should be rather amusing.
01:09:52And what about that ridiculous sword thing?
01:09:54What's that for?
01:09:56Picking those rotting teeth with?
01:09:58Ah!
01:10:00Ah!
01:10:02Ah!
01:10:04Ah!
01:10:06Ah!
01:10:10Ah!
01:10:12Ah!
01:10:14Ah!
01:10:16Ah!
01:10:20Ah!
01:10:22Ah!
01:10:30Round one to you.
01:10:36The next is mine, I think.
01:10:43If they start letting fly with those things,
01:10:45we'll all end up spattered over the furniture, Peterson.
01:10:48Now, you don't honestly think
01:10:50that you can fight your way out of here armed with just that?
01:10:53I can make an impressive dent in your skull trying.
01:10:56I don't advise it.
01:10:59Always ready to take advice.
01:11:01A sensible decision.
01:11:04And now, before tempers get frayed,
01:11:07I think we all should be thinking of bed.
01:11:10I know someone who already is.
01:11:13Miss Eckman.
01:11:15We'll see you to your room.
01:11:18Good night, Carl.
01:11:20Good night!
01:11:21Next time you're in London,
01:11:23I'm sure you'll have a good time.
01:11:25Good night!
01:11:26Next time you're in London,
01:11:28allow me to recommend you to a good dentist.
01:11:47A bit warm for you, is it?
01:11:49Shall I open the window?
01:11:51Oh, I wouldn't do that. It's electrified.
01:11:53Really?
01:11:59Good heavens. You're absolutely right.
01:12:01It's most kind of you to have mentioned it, Miss Eckman.
01:12:03Well, I didn't want you to get killed.
01:12:05At least, not yet.
01:12:07You're saving me for some wild little torture of your own, huh?
01:12:11Not torture.
01:12:13I'm just rather soft-hearted.
01:12:15And I want you to die happy.
01:12:17Huh?
01:12:19Do you mind?
01:12:21No, not at all.
01:12:23The condemned man's going to have a hearty breakfast, is he?
01:12:28Well, I doubt very much whether you'll be with us by breakfast.
01:12:32But, er, could you pour me a glass of champagne, please?
01:12:36All right.
01:12:38Thank you.
01:12:44Hmm.
01:12:46That nasty boyfriend of yours has got expensive tastes.
01:12:50Why not? He's not short of other people's money.
01:12:55And besides, this nasty boyfriend of mine likes only the best.
01:13:03Don't you?
01:13:06Do you, um, find me attractive?
01:13:12Do you like my body?
01:13:16Well, it's not bad.
01:13:20A little bit muscular, perhaps,
01:13:22but then you've got to expect that with the violent sort of exercise you take.
01:13:28To your health.
01:13:30Well, I don't know that that's quite the appropriate toast under the circumstances.
01:13:35Unless...
01:13:42Miss Eckman.
01:13:44Yes?
01:13:46Come and sit on the bed.
01:13:48Let's have a friendly chat.
01:13:57Can you help me to get out of here?
01:13:59Hmm?
01:14:01But I couldn't possibly.
01:14:03Carl would kill me.
01:14:05No. What if I was here to protect you?
01:14:10Think of the wonderful times we could have together, Miss Eckman.
01:14:13Um, darling,
01:14:16by the way,
01:14:18what is your first name?
01:14:20Emma.
01:14:23That's an absolutely super name.
01:14:27And would you really take care of me?
01:14:30Day and night.
01:14:32Especially at night.
01:14:39After all, you'd have saved my life.
01:14:42And can you promise that everything will work out all right?
01:14:46Well, we can't betray.
01:14:50Now, do you think we can do it?
01:14:55I'll tell you that later.
01:14:57Now, don't talk any more and kiss me.
01:15:01Hmm?
01:15:13You know, this is ridiculous.
01:15:15What are you talking about? Hmm?
01:15:18Well, with you,
01:15:20I'd never know whether I was going to fall
01:15:23from a high building
01:15:25or be beaten up by six or seven thugs
01:15:28or have my head blown off by a corona-corona.
01:15:33You don't trust me, hmm?
01:15:36Sweetheart, I trust you.
01:15:40About as much as a bad-tempered scorpion.
01:15:50So you'd better run and tell your boyfriend
01:15:52that though I enjoyed his dinner,
01:15:54I really couldn't face the dessert.
01:15:58You are unnatural.
01:16:03Hey, you forgot your pants.
01:16:28Karl!
01:16:30Hello, dear. Didn't see you come.
01:16:32I want to kill him, Karl. Please.
01:16:34So you shall, dear, when I say so.
01:16:36This man is utterly and completely...
01:16:39Hello.
01:16:41Anything good on the telly?
01:16:44You've got to admit, he's a dish.
01:16:58This is my lighter.
01:17:00Is it?
01:17:01Karl, I'm sick and tired of having her
01:17:03pick up everything that takes her fancy.
01:17:05Now, would you please tell this little...
01:17:07Now, just look at that.
01:17:20I've got to talk to you.
01:17:22Please, you must listen to me.
01:17:24All right.
01:17:25I don't want any more of this.
01:17:27You should have thought of that before you came here.
01:17:29I didn't volunteer.
01:17:31My father was a chemist.
01:17:33Peterson tricked him, used him in a dope deal.
01:17:36And if you hadn't come here,
01:17:38Peterson would have had him sent to prison, is that it?
01:17:40Not any more.
01:17:42Why?
01:17:43My father died two weeks ago.
01:17:45He killed himself.
01:17:51Can you phone out of here to my nephew?
01:17:54Only Eggman and Peterson can use the phone.
01:17:58Better leave it with me.
01:18:00And you'd better get out of here before they miss you.
01:18:05Our problem has always been
01:18:07to get close enough to the king
01:18:09so that the bomb we use is 100% effective.
01:18:14But with this new plastic explosive,
01:18:16a few ounces of which could blow up this whole building,
01:18:19and with grace,
01:18:21we have a solution.
01:18:24Ah!
01:18:28I don't like changing plans,
01:18:30but this.
01:18:33Meet me in the laboratory in half an hour.
01:18:36This needs a woman's touch.
01:18:38All right.
01:18:41Me too.
01:18:43You make sure that Mr. Drummond gets a good night's sleep.
01:18:47The treatment.
01:18:49The treatment.
01:18:54Thank you.
01:19:25Ooh!
01:19:27Aah!
01:19:55Ooh!
01:20:08Poor you.
01:20:25Ooh!
01:20:44Good morning, Drummond.
01:20:46Have a good night?
01:20:48It was a knockout.
01:20:50I debated whether I should allow you to awake at all,
01:20:53but like all artists, I work better
01:20:55when there's someone to appreciate what I'm doing.
01:20:58May I?
01:20:59Of course.
01:21:03Your nephew seems to be enjoying himself.
01:21:06Mm.
01:21:07He has a great capacity for self-indulgence.
01:21:10Unlike you, he'll grow out of it.
01:21:13I doubt if he'll have the time.
01:21:16Now, how about a game of chess while we're waiting?
01:21:19What are we waiting for?
01:21:2212 o'clock.
01:21:24That's when, for the want of a better expression,
01:21:27the balloon goes up.
01:21:30One for me, one for you.
01:21:35I'll set the board.
01:21:39Black and white to opening positions.
01:21:43Ooh!
01:21:50The age of computers, Drummond.
01:22:12Congratulations.
01:22:13Courtesy of a shipping company
01:22:15that failed when its chairman died.
01:22:18Lost at sea, I doubt.
01:22:20Precisely.
01:22:21Now, if you'd like to take white and open again,
01:22:24just tell the computer the move you want to make
01:22:27and it will do the rest.
01:22:29I'm sorry, sir.
01:22:31I'm afraid I can't.
01:22:33I'm afraid I can't.
01:22:35I'm afraid I can't.
01:22:37I'm afraid I can't.
01:22:39Tell the computer the move you want to make
01:22:41and it will do the rest.
01:22:45King's pawn to king four.
01:22:52King's pawn gambit.
01:22:54Orthodox reply.
01:22:56King's pawn to king four.
01:23:04King's knight to king's bishop three.
01:23:10Where are your two little charmers this morning?
01:23:13In the village.
01:23:15Queen's knight to queen's bishop three.
01:23:27Queen's knight to queen's bishop three.
01:23:40Grace is with them.
01:23:42She has the place of honour in this morning's business.
01:23:45That surprises you,
01:23:47after last night's cosy little scene in the bathroom?
01:23:50If it's any consolation to you, she meant what she said.
01:23:53She's taking part in today's events without her knowledge.
01:23:57King's knight to king's bishop three.
01:24:00Doesn't it worry you that she might object when she finds out?
01:24:04When she finds out, it'll be too late.
01:24:07She won't be there any more.
01:24:09Neither will King Ferdinand, nor the yacht,
01:24:12nor, I'm sorry to say, your beloved nephew.
01:24:15Just a great big hole in the water.
01:24:19I gather that Grace is carrying the bomb, then?
01:24:23My dear Drummond, Grace is the bomb.
01:24:30I've always wanted a yacht like that.
01:24:34Seems a pity to blow it up, doesn't it?
01:24:37If we don't get moving soon, it won't be blown up.
01:24:41That's right.
01:24:44Now, Grace, you're a very lucky girl, you know.
01:24:48Mr Peterson doesn't usually give anyone a second chance,
01:24:51so try to earn it.
01:24:56Penelope and I are going to arrange about the explosives,
01:24:59and you stay here and watch the yacht, all right?
01:25:04That's mine.
01:25:08I meant what I said, darling,
01:25:10so don't get any ideas about taking a walk, huh?
01:25:14Is that clear?
01:25:17All right. Come on.
01:25:29How can you be sure she will run?
01:25:31She'll run just as soon as she thinks we're far enough away,
01:25:34don't you worry.
01:25:35Oh, beautiful!
01:25:36Yes, beautiful, beautiful, beautiful.
01:25:53I'm sorry, miss, you cannot go aboard.
01:25:55I must.
01:25:56I'm sorry, but...
01:25:57I've got to see King Pedro or Robert Drummond.
01:25:59It's impossible.
01:26:05Stedham, friend of yours?
01:26:07Well, not yet, but I'm sure we can work out something.
01:26:10I've got to speak to you both. It's about your uncle.
01:26:24Hello?
01:26:29Everybody safely aboard.
01:26:32Drummond, come here a minute, will you?
01:26:36The fuse has been successfully lit.
01:26:44Interesting to speculate just where on her person
01:26:47you could possibly have hidden the bomb.
01:26:50Now, isn't it just?
01:26:53Your move, I think.
01:26:55Sounds a bit far-fetched to me.
01:26:57Of course it's true, every word of it.
01:26:59Ekman and Penelope are arranging about the bomb right now.
01:27:02You've no idea what sort of a bomb?
01:27:04They wouldn't tell me.
01:27:05Let's assume for a moment what she says is true.
01:27:08The question is, what do we do?
01:27:10Get the hell out of here before they come back.
01:27:13Right.
01:27:14Captain!
01:27:15See you around, I hope.
01:27:16Hey!
01:27:17Where are you going?
01:27:18Well, as long as we're believing her,
01:27:20I'd better get up the castle and lend a hand.
01:27:22It strikes me as being extremely capable.
01:27:24Helpless as a babe without me around.
01:27:28Parajala!
01:27:35They'll keep you from being lonely.
01:27:37Well, what about you?
01:27:40You must be joking.
01:27:45Tell me, how are you planning to dispose of me?
01:27:48Hmm?
01:27:49Oh, an underwater swim.
01:27:51Ekman, Penelope and you.
01:27:53The only trouble is that you've forgotten to check your air tanks.
01:27:59King's Bishop Pawn to King's Bishop Three.
01:28:11Come on, Drummond.
01:28:12It's your move.
01:28:14Hmm?
01:28:15I said it was your move.
01:28:19Then I'd better make it.
01:28:23Come on.
01:28:53Ah!
01:29:17Ah!
01:29:19Standard gambit.
01:29:21Eliminate your opponent's knight.
01:29:23Your move, Peterson.
01:29:27Black Queen's Knight is taken.
01:29:49Ah!
01:30:06White Queen's Bishop to Queen Two.
01:30:13White King's Bishop's Pawn to King's Bishop Three.
01:30:18That's six, Peterson. You only get seven with a Beretta.
01:30:22Like king's bishop's pawn to king's bishop's fork.
01:30:48Come on.
01:31:18Black queen's pawn to queen's six.
01:31:26Black queen to king's fork.
01:31:32White castle to king's four.
01:31:35Black king to king's four.
01:31:37White castle to king four.
01:31:39White castle to king four.
01:31:41Black king to king four.
01:32:01Checkmate.
01:32:07Checkmate.
01:32:26Is this a private party, or can anyone join in?
01:32:29Be my guest.
01:32:38Well, what shall I do with her?
01:32:40Nasty little girl.
01:32:42Down the black hole.
01:32:49Give me a hand with this, Bishop.
01:32:53It's heavy.
01:32:55Well, that ought to keep the little darlings quiet for a while.
01:33:08Well, I'm glad to see that Grace and the king are hitting it off.
01:33:12It must be her explosive personality.
01:33:20What's the time?
01:33:22Five to twelve.
01:33:24We've got five minutes.
01:33:37Oh, God.
01:34:03Hey, hey.
01:34:07Where is it?
01:34:14Come on.
01:34:25Come on, get going.
01:34:31Cover them.
01:34:37Come on.
01:34:59What's all this about, Mr. Drummond?
01:35:01This girl is due to blow up in about two minutes.
01:35:05So where is it?
01:35:07I don't know.
01:35:09Honestly.
01:35:11I do.
01:35:13Lover.
01:35:15You won't get anything out of her. Here, catch this.
01:35:17Give me the other one.
01:35:24No time for modesty.
01:35:35The women, they've got away.
01:35:37We'll worry about them later.
01:35:41Sorry about this. I hope you can swim.
01:35:47One, two, three, and up she goes.
01:35:51Come on, let's go.
01:35:54Sorry about this. I hope you can swim.
01:36:00One, two, three, and up she goes.
01:36:03And up she goes.
01:36:07Incidentally, where was it?
01:36:09In her chignon.
01:36:10Chignon?
01:36:12Well, you know, her false hair piece up there.
01:36:14Lover, wasn't it?
01:36:16It couldn't be.
01:36:18It was nicer than mine, so I changed them over.
01:36:21Where's it now?
01:36:23I'm wearing it.
01:36:25You're what?
01:36:31That's what comes of letting success go to your head.
01:36:37Help!
01:36:39Help! Help!
01:36:41I'll go.
01:36:43No, I'll go.
01:36:44Help!
01:36:52She whispers, oh, such pretty lies
01:36:58Don't believe her
01:37:01For when you look into her eyes
01:37:07Love just isn't there
01:37:10Brother, beware
01:37:13Take care, my brother, take care
01:37:17Even though the species is dead, leave her dead, my friend
