"And in my speech to the American Congress," "I intend to propose a new kind of partnership with the United States." "One built on cooperation and mutual understanding." "The old cliches must be forgotten." "During the next decade, the problems of overpopulation, of poverty and of militarism, must be met squarely, if we are to survive." "Presidente Rojas is never to deliver his speech." "I understand." "$50,000." "You leave for Washington on the midnight plane." "I will follow tomorrow afternoon." "I trust you've already made the funeral arrangements?" "I remind you, if you fail, the funeral arrangements will be ours." "I won't fail." "What time do you open?" "Noon." "It's too bad." "I've got a 10:30 train to catch." "Good morning, Mr. Phelps." "On Wednesday morning," "Adolfo Rojas addresses a joint session of Congress." "Before he enters the congressional chambers," "Rojas will be dead, his government taken over by Manuel Ferrar, his Chief of Internal Security." "The murderer will be a professional assassin with the code name Plato, whose true identity is known only to Ferrar." "although warned," "Presidente Rojas refuses to cancel this vital appearance, and obviously, our government cannot withdraw its invitation." "Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to learn Plato's identity and transmit the information to Washington before Presidente Rojas begins his speech." "As always, should you or any of your IM Force be caught or killed, the Secretary will disavow any knowledge of your actions." "This tape will self-destruct in five seconds." "Good luck, Jim." "Manuel Ferrar." "His protege, Chief of Police, Francisco Diaz." "Ferrar is brave, dedicated." "He'll do anything for his cause, Paris." "Diaz-- clever, resourceful." "Together, they make a deadly team." "But only Ferrar knows Plato's true identity?" "Only Ferrar knows, and only Ferrar can tell us." "Now this is our Ferrar, Doug." "He's a good double." "He'll be on the airplane." "This is everything we've been able to find out about the deep cover agent, Ramon Marcos, Paris." "Six months ago, he was assigned to pose as a political prisoner in the penal colony on San Felipe Island." "When he completed his assignment, the plane carrying him and a number of legitimate prisoners vanished at sea." "Then Marcos and Ferrar never met?" "That's right." "Will Dana be on the island with us?" "No." "We'll rendezvous with Dana at El Conquistador Hotel." "In less than 60 hours," "Presidente Rojas addresses Congress." "Have you renewed your pilot's license, Barney?" "Passed the test with flying colors, Jim." "Thank you." "The Fifth Army Brigade and the Seventh Parachute Regiment are ready to occupy the city the instant word comes of the Presidente's tragic death." "You're a very efficient young man, Diaz." "I learned it all from you, Manuel." "You may board, Dr. Lang." "Thank you." "Board whenever you wish, Senor Ferrar." "Thank you." "I'll watch your plane take off, Manuel." "Thank you." "You may board." "Can't you watch where you're going?" "Welcome aboard." "Oh, excuse me." "Charlie?" "Charlie, wake up." "Charlie, please!" "Stewardess?" "Yes?" "What's wrong?" "I'm a doctor." "He had a heart attack two years ago." "Well, he's having another." "He needs immediate hospitalization." "Have the pilot radio the tower for an ambulance." "I tell you, my ticket was in my wallet!" "All right, give it here!" "I beg your pardon?" "Please return my wallet and my passport and I won't press charges." "Your wallet?" "Why, you're abso..." "Guard!" "You asked for it." "Senor?" "This gentleman accidentally bumped into me, and what do you know?" "My wallet and my plane ticket disappeared." "Now, I was warned to be careful when I came down here." "Now, if you people really want tourists to come here, you'd better watch these incidents." "Do you know who I am?" "A thousand apologies, Senor Diaz." "Now, you..." "Senor, this was found on the floor of the men's room." "My wallet!" "See that everything is in order, Senor." "Mm-hmm... mm-hmm." "Hmm, I can't imagine how I lost it." "Ladies and gentlemen, you may notice that the "No smoking" sign has been turned off." "Refreshments will be served shortly." "We'll have you back in the air soon, Senor Ferrar." "You stupid idiot, what do you think you're doing?" "!" "You almost killed us!" "They're okay, Paris." "Police!" "Strange." "When we called the hospital, they had no record of any such ambulance." "And furthermore, it was last seen in the Santa Christina area." "It's a warehouse district." "There are no hospitals." "Well, Barata, it appears that you must find that ambulance." "You've had quite a nap." "Hmm?" "8:00?" "Yes, you've been asleep for more than three hours." "Oh, sir, please remain seated." "We're expecting some turbulence." "You, too, sir." "Please fasten your seat belt." "This is Captain Jenkins again." "We've picked up a little tailwind, so it may get a bit bumpy now and then." "But our ground speed is now 615 miles per hour." "We're approximately 1 ,500 miles from Washington, and I estimate we'll land on time." "In five minutes, we'll be passing over the South Kimberly Islands, noted for their deep lagoons and rugged coastlines." "Kimberly Islands." "Isn't that where that penal colony is?" "Uh, San Felipe?" "Everybody keep calm." "Please remain seated." "Everybody keep calm." "The aircraft is under control." "Please remain seated." "This is Captain Jenkins." "We've had an electrical malfunction in number four engine." "Now, there's absolutely nothing to worry about, nothing at all." "If you'll all remain in your seats and follow the stewardess' instructions, nobody will be injured." "However, as a precaution, all passengers will follow emergency procedures." "I repeat: this is only as a precaution." "Help!" "We're going to crash!" "The engine's on fire." "Somebody!" "Help!" "Help!" "Look out!" "Help!" "I don't want to die!" "Please protect me!" "Please protect me!" "He's hysterical." "If you must die, die like a man!" "Dana!" "All right, Barney." "Let's dismantle and get out of here, Barney." "Jim." "Everybody out, now." "Forget it, Barney." "That one." "Dana!" "The tapes!" "No!" "Go!" "What do we do about Dana?" "There's nothing we can do right now." "We're working against time, Paris." "We have to break Ferrar before Diaz catches up with us." "We can't just write her off." "Well, the first move is up to her, Paris." "She has to figure out a way to get to El Conquistador Hotel." "Once she gets there, we can help her, but not before." "If she gets there." "This is Captain Jenkins again." "We've picked up a little tailwind, so it may get a bit bumpy now and then." ""Manuel Ferrar arrived to Washington, Flight 20."" "A man posing as Manuel arrived in Washington." "In five minutes, we'll be passing over the South Kimberly Islands, noted for their..." "An ambulance takes a critically ill passenger off a plane." "Later in that same ambulance, we find... a stewardess." "They want us to believe he has arrived in Washington." "And him to believe he has been in a plane crash." "But why?" "When he wakes up, they will try to make him believe that he's... in the hospital." ""The South Kimberly Islands."" "Or on an island." "The South Kimberly Islands, noted for their deep lagoons and rugged coast..." "Barata, I want every available man." "Search parties must be assembled immediately." "I want them to search every line of the coast." "We will find them, Colonel." "It is just a matter of time." "Who are you?" "All right." "Wait." "Move." "We found another survivor." "Water..." "Please!" "Water... please." "I need some water." "Please, get me some water." "Water... water..." "Water, please." "Water." "I need some water." "Please." "Lock him up." "Come here." "Come here, please!" "It should move fast now, sir." "We have search teams working in four areas." "The roads are sealed, and before them is the ocean." "There is no way they can get away from us." "Good." "Well, has your memory returned?" "Or would you like to go back to your cell to reflect a little more?" "Please..." ""Please" what?" "Please, I don't," "I don't want to be locked up again." "I'll tell you everything you want to know." "Everything." "Suppose we begin with your name." "Your real name." "Eve." "Eve Robertson." "Where are we going?" "You're going to face the Council." "The men who run this island." "Who are these men?" "Where are they from?" "Everyone here was once a prisoner on San Felipe." "San Felipe?" "Yes, San Felipe." "Island of the Doomed;" "Island of No Return." "We were being flown to the mainland where our death sentences would be carried out, so we hijacked the plane and we forced the pilot to land here." "And then we... we killed the crew and all the guards." "Massacred all of them." "Then we took a vow never to be taken alive." "That's our warning." "There's an airplane passing over the island." "They're searching for me!" "Wait, wait, don't go out there!" "They'll kill you!" "They'll shoot you on the spot-- that's the rules." "No one's allowed outside when the air warning alarm sounds." "If you go out there, they'll kill you." "So you saved my life." "It was a..." "it was a question of money." "I was broke." "Acting jobs are hard to come by in New York." "I was supposed to be a stewardess, play a part." "They told me nothing was going to happen." "They promised me." "Who are they?" "Oh..." "I wish I knew!" "I'd like to see them rot for what they did to me." "Did they tell you what they wanted?" "Ferrar." "A man named Manuel Ferrar." "He was supposed to think he was in a plane crash." "They wanted certain information." "What information?" "I don't know!" "Oh..." "I don't know." "Please, you've got to believe me!" "I'm just an actress!" "I don't care about politics." "Please..." "Um..." "I..." "I think that... they wanted to know the real name of-of someone they called Plato." "Did they tell you why they wanted this information?" "No." "Was there any mention of Presidente Rojas?" "No." "Miss Robertson..." "Oh, please... please, please, you've got to believe me." "I just want to go home!" "Please, I just want to save my life!" "Please!" "So you say your name is Pedro Fontanara, and you're a construction engineer?" "Yes." "Yes, sir." "Yes, sir." "You're Phillip Lang, you're a doctor?" "Well?" "Yes, sir." "You're ready to hear the arguments?" "Arguments?" "There isn't enough food for two more mouths." "So we take a vote and decide who dies." "First we give you the opportunity to present any... arguments you may have in your own defense." "So you tell us, gentlemen, which of you should live, and why." "You first, Fontanara." "You need me, as much as I need you." "I have already had an opportunity to study these caves, your quarters." "There are signs of erosion, of imminent deterioration." "The walls must be shorn up to prevent a cave-in that could kill you all." "I am an expert in this field." "If I live, you live, too." "If not..." "And where is Manuel Ferrar now?" "I don't know where he is." "Where is he?" "Oh... please, please, you've got to believe me!" "Why would they tell me where they're keeping him?" "Of course." "They would not tell you more than they wanted you to know." "Oh, please... please let me go home now." "I've told you everything I know." "You will notice, Barata, that she told us only what we already knew." "You are an actress, Miss Robertson, a very good one." "You are also a liar of some skill, but a liar nevertheless!" "All right, Colonel." "You're right." "I am an agent." "I work for American Intelligence." "We were sent here to try to find out who Ferrar sent to kill Rojas." "Now, what do I have to do to save my life?" "You can save your life by taking me to Manuel Ferrar." "I don't know where he is." "You are still playing games." "Shoot me if you want, I don't know where he is." "Colonel Diaz, do you and Ferrar always tell your agents more than they have to know?" "It was my understanding that not even you know who Plato really is." "Suppose I were to believe you." "What do you have left to bargain with?" "We have a rendezvous point-- the El Conquistador Hotel." "If they think I'm there, they'll contact me." "Perhaps I can find out where Ferrar is being held." "Perhaps not." "If they contact me," "I will get your information one way or another." "And if I fail, you still have me, right?" "They already know that you have been captured." "Put out an alarm." "Say I've escaped." "Say I overpowered Miss Universe over there." "Release her." "You won't be sorry for this, Colonel." "Barata, I want close surveillance on her." "Tap all phones coming into the El Conquistador." "I want both rooms on either side of her occupied by our men." "What about the escape story?" "They'll probably be monitoring our police bands." "Put out the appropriate alarm." "Yes, Colonel." "Barata." "The arrangements-- be very careful, she is a very clever young woman." "You've heard the arguments of the doctor and the engineer;" "you've cast your votes." "From this vote, there's no appeal." "Doctor." "Doctor." "Engineer." "Engineer." "Doctor." "Engineer." "Three for each." "Before I cast the deciding vote, have you anything more to say in your defense?" "You?" "Yes." "Who are you, any of you, to stand in judgment on me?" "I control my own destiny!" "The deciding vote has been cast." "You're right, Fontanara." "You speak the language of the island." "The deciding vote has been cast." "Gentlemen, I think we are persuaded that an engineer is more useful than a doctor." "It won't be long now, sir." "Our Miss Robertson has been contacted at the El Conquistador." "They're sending someone for her." "Once again, the description of the American agent who escaped custody this afternoon:" "female, approximately 25 years old, brown hair, brown eyes." "It's Dana." "What do you think, is that for real?" "I don't know." "Barney's gonna have to play it by ear." "Marcos..." "Ramon Marcos." "You were a deep-cover agent on San Felipe." "Before that, you were attached to the Cuban Embassy." "And before that, you were our contact on Presidente Rojas' personal staff." "Marcos, I am Ferrar, Manuel Ferrar." "No, Manuel Ferrar is a friend of mine." "I know him well." "You and I never met." "Well, then you could be anybody." "How else would I know you if I were not Ferrar?" "I'm sorry." "I can't risk it." "I have information from San Felipe so vital that if it is not delivered, our entire cause will be destroyed." "I'm sorry." "What are you talking about?" "What information?" "Tell me!" "An agent we trusted" "Plato-- is working for American intelligence." "He was to gather damning evidence that you and Diaz are traitors, then turn it over to Rojas so Rojas would get rid of you." "No, you're lying." "A prisoner on San Felipe made a deathbed statement:" "Juan Sanchez, a man who knew Plato personally." "Sanchez?" "Yes, of course, Sanchez." "But why did you wait?" "You had the raft." "Surely there was an opportunity some time..." "The others, they've never trusted me." "If you only knew how difficult it's been for me to get all this together!" "There are planes which cross over this island." "You have flares." "We must use them!" "It is imperative I reach Diaz!" "No, no!" "We can't leave until dark." "We must leave immediately!" "No." "I'll show you why." "You see, he's armed." "This area is always patrolled." "Our only hope is at night." "I've waited so long." "Maybe with your help." "One of us must make it." "Get the raft ready." "Good." "The American's on his way up." "We're leaving right on schedule." "They'll be picking us up any time now." "Did Ferrar talk?" "Never mind him." "Did you talk?" "I only told them what they already knew." "Good." "Will you fix me a drink while we wait?" "We're waiting here, ladies and gentlemen, just a few steps from the main chamber in which President Rojas will announce the signing of the mutual assistance pact." "As you can see, the area is rapidly filling with news reporters from all over the world." "Within the next 30 minutes," "Presidente Adolfo Rojas will arrive." "It was a scant ten years ago that an obscure young Air Force Colonel, Adolfo Rojas," "was elected president of a country torn with revolution, its people poor and sick." "Today, a short decade later, that same country is stable," "its people are prosperous and healthy." "Is Ferrar going with us?" "If he hasn't talked." "Salud." "Salud." "President Rojas is a new breed of Caribbean leader." "He is a man of the people..." "He shot Perez." "Why did you use the gun?" "They must have heard the shot!" "They'll find us!" "Move!" "They must be in this area." "They'll find us." "The rocks!" "We'll never get out of here!" "Here, You keep them busy until I'm out of range." "I'm taking the raft." "Wait!" "No!" "You're asking me to cover your escape." "I'm not asking, Marcos, I'm ordering." "I've got to deal with Plato immediately." "You're ordering me to sacrifice myself!" "At least on the raft I'd have a chance!" "I'm asking you for our cause." "But why me?" "!" "Why must I die?" "!" "Here they are!" "Marcos, Fontanara, throw down your weapons and come out!" "Bring up the explosives!" "No, no, please, don't make me go!" "Oh, please, please don't make me do it." "Let me live!" "Let me live!" "Let me live!" "All right." "l don't want to stay here." "With you covering, we'd both be dead anyway." "Go!" "I'll send help, I promise." "Never mind, never mind." "Listen, listen carefully." "Plato is Jose Santos the journalist." "I want you to go to Francisco Diaz and tell him everything you've told me about Plato." "Now go!" "Santos, Jose Santos, journalist." "Remember the name Jose Santos, journalist!" "Get word to Diaz!" "My orders are to dispose of him immediately!" "This is your last chance, do you hear me?" "His great desire for an education was shown that after ten hours of working in the fields all day, he would go home to those old encyclopedias..." "I can't hear them." "...hour of study led him to the National University, the Air Force Academy and later the presidency of this country." "...said it was his real poverty-stricken background that brought him to the people and to our country" "and thus the signing today of..." "All right, come on!" "We're expecting President Rojas any minute, ladies and gentlemen, so stay right with us, if you will, please." "There seems to be some sort of a disturbance." "Stay with it." "Ladies and gentlemen, Presidente Rojas." "President Rojas, congratulations good to see you again." "It's been ten years, a long time when we covered your first election and congratulations to you." "Thank you again." "Ladies and gentlemen, you have been watching a television news special broadcast live via satellite" "from Washington D.C." "We now return to our regular programming." "We now return to our regular programming."
