"I mean, what kind of a life is that for a nice girl?" "You'll wanna get married someday, settle down, have a family." "After all, 99, you're a very attractive person." "Are you trying to tell me something, Max?" " Yes." " What?" " You can go on the mission." " Oh." "I'd better call the Chief and let him know about it right away." " I'll get him for you."

"Max, we've discovered that the informer was a trumpet player with Herb Talbot's Tijuana Tin." "Oh, the Tijuana Tin." "I love them-- I have all their albums, Chief." "He told you that Dr. Hellman's Theory would be sent out of the country during a television show tomorrow night" " between 9:00 and 10:00, right?" " Right." "Herb Talbot's Tijuana Tin are doing a television special tomorrow night between 9:00 and 10:00." "That's terrible, Chief!" "They'll be killed!" " What do you mean?" " They're on opposite a movie-- nobody'll watch 'em." "Max, you're missing the point." "We think Dr. Hellman's Theory has been transposed into music and that they're going to play it out of the country tomorrow night during that television special." " Precisely." " Well then, that means that one of the musicians in the Tijuana Tin could be" " the man we're looking for." " That's right, but which one?" "I know every musician in that group." "I've dated them all." "Tell me, Dr. Simon, which one of these musicians would you say is cunning enough and treacherous enough to stop at nothing to get what he wants?" "( chuckles ) All of them." "They'll be needing a new trumpet player, Max, and that's going to be you." "But Chief, I don't know anything about playing the trumpet!" "But with this trumpet, you don't have to know how to play." "You see, this is a computer trumpet." "You just tell it the song you want it to play, then finger the valves as though you're actually playing it." "( man knocks ) Two minutes, Miss Simon." "Oh, I'm sorry." "I have to go." "Now we've gotten 99 a job in the chorus." "She'll contact you if she discovers anything." "Now remember, Max, you've got to find out which song the Theory has been transposed into and stop it from being played." "Dr. Simon, this is the most fantastic invention" "I've ever seen in my entire life." "CONTROL should have more scientists like you." "A lot more." " Good luck, 86." " Thank you."

"I've been playing in Rome for the past five years." "I just got back last week." "Did you ever play with Phil Felini?" "Uh, Phil..." "Phil Felini?" "Yes, as a matter of fact, that was my last job." " How was Phil?" " Who?" "Oh, Phil!" "Yes yes." "Well, he's been working very hard and he's very tired." "And when I saw him just last week, he didn't look too good." "Phil Felini's been dead six months." "Well, in that case, he didn't look too bad." "( whispering ) Psst, Max." " Is that you, 99?" " Yes, Max." "You know something, 99?"

"Yes, but I think we ought to go one more time." "All right, let me have it." "Hmm." "And one and two..." ""Seven, C, four, one, one, t--"" "So that's how they plan to do it." "Then Talbot must be the leader." "Of course Talbot is the leader, 99!" "No wonder we could never find the leader." "Who would expect that the leader would actually be called "the Leader"?" "If KAOS wanted to hide the identity of the Leader, then they never would have called the leader "The Leader"" "unless they expected us not to believe that the Leader was really the Leader!" "Could you repeat that, Max?" "I don't think so." "E equals zero." "Great." "Your hand was precise and clear." "Good." "I'll be seeing you." "( tune playing )" " What's that, Max?" " "I'll be seeing you."" "It's a great old Tommy Dorsey hit." "99..." "My trumpet is out there playing without me." "It's one of those computer trumpets." " It plays any song great." " How do you know?" "It's exactly like mine." "( music stops )" "That man is no musician." "He's a CONTROL agent." "Find him and kill him." "Come on, 99, let's get outta here." "There they are." " It's locked, 99." " Which way, Max?" "Well, I'd say the best way is... that way." "Max, in here." "No, they must have gone the other way." " ( gasps ) Excuse me." " I'm so sorry." "Sorry about that." "Hold it, you two." "( comical chase music playing )" "Max, we're trapped!" "We'll have to barricade ourselves in this room." "Get these chairs and put 'em against the wall." "Right, Max." "This won't stop 'em, but it'll slow 'em up a little bit." " I guess this is it, Max." " It's my fault." "I never should have allowed you to talk me into taking you on this assignment." "Don't say that, Max." "If anything is going to happen to us," "I'd rather it happened like this-- while we're together." "It won't be long now, Max." "99, there's something I have to tell you." "What is it, Max?" "Well, we've known each other for a long time, and, well, we've been through a lot of things together." " Go on, Max." " Well... it's just that I-- well, I have to tell you how I really feel about you." "I've wanted to tell you for a long long time, but I just-- well, I've never been able to find the right words." "You see, 99, it's not easy to say... well, it's not easy to say..." "To say "I love you," Max?" "Yes." "Well, why don't you let me say it for you?" "I love you, Max." "No no, 99, that's not what I want to say." "I wanted to say, "I love you, 99."" "No, I'm saying I love you too, Max." " You do?" " I always have." "( sighs ) You know, it's kind of a shame we had to discover each other when our lives are in such terrible danger." "It would have been so much more romantic if we could have been having a candlelit supper at your apartment and sipping champagne, and then saying how much we love each other while we're dancing on your terrace." "Oh no, that would be more dangerous than this" "I don't have a terrace." "Oh, Max, I'm so glad you love me." "You know, 99, if we could get outta this trap, I'd marry you." " You would?" " Of course I would." "Now that you mention it, Max," " There is a way out." " There is?" "What about the old double-door-deception trick?" " It just might work!" " Of course!" "The old double-door- deception trick!" "It just might work!" "If it does, we'll get outta here alive, and then we can be married." "Max, don't you want to get out of here alive?" "I'm thinking." "Max!" "Hurry, Max!" " Ready?" " Ready." " Ready?" " Ready." "Now, 99, that takes care of the Leader." "If only he had used his music for niceness instead of evil." "And now we can be married, Max." "Yes, uh, married." "Max, you did mean what you said, didn't you?" "Oh, Max, it's beautiful." "There's just one thing I'd like to know, 99:" "why didn't you think of a way out of here before I asked you to marry me?" "Well, I didn't have as much to live for then." "( theme music playing )"
