"Up yours, Kendig." "Where's your report?" "You haven't filed it." "I just got off the airplane." "The job's finished." "What's the hurry?" "Typical." "It's difficult growing up, isn't it?" "Aren't you just a little senior... to be shadowing people around the streets of Munich personally?" "I worked on that job for two years." "I had a right to be in at the finish."

"Oh, slightly... slightly older." "Mm." "As a general rule, the older wines are better." "It takes time for the elements in wine to resolve themselves... into an harmonious whole." "It takes time and oxygen." " Are you serious?" " Deadly serious." "Wine is not a disembodied essence." "It is the product of skill, knowledge and, in many cases, love." "Are you a..." "a wine salesperson?" "No." "I am an ordinary person... living quietly on the generous endowment... left me by my dear departed husband." " Oh, that's wonderful." " Thank you." " You certainly know a lot about wines." " You're American." " Yes." " Americans hold many myths about wine." "You are all interested in fitness, in general health." "You think wine is bad for your liver and your heart." "This is completely not true." "It is the drinking of wine that makes it possible to eat the rich food... which is bad for your liver and your heart... because wine cuts grease."

"Kitchen's downstairs." "Where do you keep the beer, please?" "Middle shelf" " Miss the old life?" " No." "Game got too dirty." "You still take gin and ginger ale?" "Mine was never gin and ginger ale." "Montrachet '69, please." "Next to the beer." " Oh, of course." " [Beating Eggs]" "When I first worked for the agency... its use seemed clear."

" Yeah." "I'm Carla Fleming." "I fly a seaplane." "I understand you're looking for one." "Shall we sit down?" "[Song Continues, Indistinct]" "When and where do you wanna fly?" "This Friday." "Ayoung lady and I..." " Or is it "a young lady and me"?" " "I."" " Uh, do you know where Coffee Bluff is?" " Uh-huh." "Okay, you pick us up there and you fly us to Martinique." "Has your plane got the range for it?" "Mm-hmm." "It's a Lake Buccaneer." "It's not gonna be cheap, since I don't know what we're carrying." "Well, I told you... a young lady." "I'm not smuggling." "I hear you saying it." "I don't wanna know either way." "$3,000." "I just wanna charter it." "I don't wanna buy it." "I'm sure you could get a better price from one of the airlines." "I think the regular fare is about $150." "Okay, okay." "I'll give you the money right before we take off." "Just as soon as possible after dawn this Friday." " You got it?" " I'll be there." " Okay." " Now you can buy me a scotch and soda." "[Loud Rock]" "[Loudly] Scotch and soda for the lady." "Pay attention, shorty." "I'd like to make a call to Salzburg, Austria, please." "[Ringing]" " Hello." " Hello, Is." "Kendig?" "What the hell are you doing?" "Don't you know this damn phone is tapped?" "Watch the profanity, please." "I've been missing you, thinking about you... and I had this sudden urge." " [Isobel] Are you drunk?" " It's Kendig!" "There are 212 tape recorders on this line." "[Kendig] It'll take 94 seconds for them to trace the call." "Is Follett still harassing you?" "It's "harassing," dear." "Harassing." "He's trying, but he's afraid of the dog." "I haven't seen him for a few days." "He must be off somewhere with his nose to the ground." " Who, the dog?" " No, dear." "Follett." "Are you keeping this line open until he can pinpoint you?" "Follett couldn't pinpoint his own backside in broad daylight." " We'll see about that." "Hurry it up." " [Kendig, Indistinct]" "You do know what you're doing, don't you?" "Certainly not." "How's the book coming?" "Is it finished?" "All but the last chapter." "You know, that's the stuff with the dynamite in it." "I'm just at the bit about Follett when he got caught with his pants down... writing obscenities on the men's room wall." "Was he alone?" " Very funny." "Very funny." " [Kendig, Indistinct]" "The state of Georgia, sir." "They're working on the exchange." "Geez." "Tell them to hurry it up." "Not to be gruesome, old darling, but I hope you've written your will." "Yes." "I've left everything to the Flat Earth Society." "But don't worry about it." "I'm forted up here with plenty of firepower." "No, sir." "They'll never take me alive." "I'm armed to the teeth." " Good grief!" "Haven't you got it yet?" " [Kendig, Indistinct]" "Any second now, sir." " I'll call you again." "You know the time and place." " I do." " Geez!" " Bye, darling." "Bye, darling." "Telephone number area code... 311-555-1285." "Maple Road, Adairsville, Georgia." " Get the agency." " Yes, sir." "What?" "Repeat that." "I don't fucking believe it!" "Excuse me, Beverly." "Mr. Kendig has rented out my house." "Would you get Mr. Cutter in here right away, please?" "He's actually had the balls to hide out in my house!" "It's a house on the edge of a marsh about five minutes from here." "I know where it is." "Is it covered?" "We got a couple boys across the road." "We didn't want to alert him." "Alert him?" "He knows we're coming." "Just one thing, Mr. Myerson." "This is our jurisdiction, not yours." "It's an F.B.I. Case now." "I run the show." "I want one of my men in each of these cars." "[Woman Singing Opera]" "[Humming Softly To Music]" "[Stops Humming]" "[Resumes Humming]" "Jerry, you take the back and the far side." "Bobby, you take this side." "I'll take the front." "Bring me the bullhorn and the gas." "Kendig." "This is the F.B.I." "We've got you surrounded." "Throw out your guns and come out with your hands over your head." "You've got 60 seconds before we use tear gas." "I hope your guys aren't trigger-happy." "It'd be a shame to damage this house." "We don't shoot first, but if he tries to blast his way out..." " With what?" "He hasn't carried a gun for years." " That's not what I was told." ""Forted up with plenty of firepower." "Armed to the teeth."" "What secrets did he steal?" "It's on a need-to-know basis..." "a matter of hational security." "[Scoffs, Laughing] Yeah." "That's a phrase that's lost a good deal of meaning lately." "You got 20 seconds, Kendig." "[Singing Continues]" "Give him the gas." "[Firecrackers Popping]" "Do that one more time, Kendig, and we'll blow you to pieces." "Let him have it." "[Gunfire Continues]" "Freeze!" "Keep your hands down." "Nice shootin', Ross." "Eight thousand panes, and you hit one of them." "[Gunfire]" " What's happening?" " They're shooting up your house." "[Singing Continues]" " [Gunfire Continues]" " Stop it!" "Stop it!" "Cease fire!" " [Gunfire Continues]" " Fucking Idiots!" "Stop it!" "Stop it!" "Get down, you idiot!" "You wanna get yourself killed?" "This is a mistake!" " In you go, Ross." " Am I driving?" "Move over to the other side." "Move it." "That's enough!" "That's enough!" " You're destroying my house!" " Give it one more." "Okay, boys." "Cease fire." "Soon as the smoke clears, we'll go in and take a look." "I don't believe this." "I don't fucking believe this." " Talk about playing into this hands." " Just shut the fuck up!" "[Agent] There's a guy pulling out of here in a pickup... with one of the C.I.A. Men." "Ross!" " That's him!" " Back to the cars." " I'll call the fire department." " Son of a bitch!" "Mike, stay here." " Let's go!" " [Engines Start]" "[Car Squeaking]" "Now I know what F.B.I. Stands for." "Fucking Ball-busting Imbeciles." "Okay, Ross." "This is where you get off." "You used to be a pretty good man." "I looked up to you." " What happened?" " Get out." " I came to my senses, that's all." " How do you figure that?" "A few skunks in the agency that needed flushing out." "Close the door." "Back off." "You're just making a fool of yourself, Kendig." "You don't have a chance." "Oh, yeah?" "Don't bet on that, Ross." "So long, kid." "[Airplane Approaching]" " Mornin'." " Good mornin'." " Hiya, kid." " Hi." " You alone?" " Yeah." " Where's your lady friend?" " Her mother wouldn't let her come." "Okay." "Let's get going." "One passenger or two..." "the price is still the same." "Oh, that's a relief" "Three thousand bucks." "There we go." "Thank you." "Next stop..." "Martinique." "How about a change of course?" "092 magnetic." " Bermuda?" " Why not?" "Okay by me." "That'll take about seven hours." "We haven't got a bathroom." "Can you make it?" " I'll be very careful." " What did you do, rob a bank?" " Is that what's in the suitcase?" " Uh, yes." "Gee, I never drove a getaway car before." "It's kind of fun." " You mind if I steer a while?" " You know how?" "Yeah." "They trained me as a ferry pilot for M.A.T.S." " Still got my license." " Sure." "Who's "they"?" "Guys with little plastic I.D. Cards." "They'll probably come around, ask you a lot of questions." "Just tell them the truth." "I generally tell the truth." "It's easier that way." " Are you going back tonight?" " Oh, no way." "I'm gonna get my hair done and get a good night's sleep." " Well, you certainly got enough money for it." " Just about." "So long." "Take care of yourself, whatever you're doing." "You seem like a nice fella." "You remind me of my father." " That's always been my problem." " [Chuckles]" "[Caribbean]" "Here's your tea, dear." "Nice and hot, with lemon." "Just the way you like it." "I don't like lemon." "I like milk." "Now, is there anything else that I can get for you boys?" "Well, don't work Mr. Cutter too hard." "After all, it is Sunday." "I'm sure he needs his rest." "If you need me, I'll be in the sewing room." "Should have terminated her 20 years ago." "Joe, maybe we've been going about this the wrong way." "Perhaps it needs a lighter touch." "You know, sometimes bullying people doesn't work." "Let's be sophisticated here." "Maybe we can use a carrot instead of a stick." "Kendig likes girls, doesn't he?" "Listen, Myerson, let me make a suggestion." "Why don't I go over to Salzburg and have a little talk with Isobel?" "We worked together once." "Maybe she'll listen to what I have to say." "Have you got something going on with Isobel too?" "We're always one step behind him." "I'd like to get one step ahead of the arrogant son of a bitch." "I thought you liked the arrogant son of a bitch?" " Welcome to London, Mr. Ross." "Business or pleasure?" " Oh, yes." " I beg your pardon?" " Oh. [Chuckles] A little of both." " I'm here to see my publisher." "I'm writing a book." " How long do you plan to stay?" "That depends." "I'm waiting for some colleagues to catch up with me." " Enjoy your visit." " Thank you." " What's the name of the book?" " Hopscotch." "Good title." " Glen." " How are you doing?" " Will she see us?" " She'll see you." "You won't get anywhere." "I've already tried." "Well, maybe she'll be more accessible to me." "I'm an old friend." " Yaskov's in town." "He wants to see you." " That's good." "I'd like that." "Set a time and place for this afternoon." "You're looking very tired, Joe." " It's the jet lag." "I can't get used to it." " You sure that's all it is?" "Now, listen, Isobel." "We're both fond of this character... but he's making an ass of himself, and he's got to cut it out." " For his own good." " For his own good?" "You've been trying to stop him, and I gather not having too much success." "Such a shame." "All those bright young men." "And there he is, single-handedly running rings around you all." "He's very good." "He's as good as they come." "And he is running rings around us, and I'm his biggest fan." "But Kendig is going to make a mistake." "Sooner or later, he's bound to slip." "After all, he's only human." " Oh, he's extremely human." " It's not funny, Isobel." "We're not the only people looking for him." "If the Russians get to him before we do..." "You mean Myerson's methods of termination are more humane than the Russians'?" "You know what I mean." "I don't want to hurt him, Isobel." "But I have a job to do, and I'm going to do it." "He's got to stop that book right now." "He's had his fun." "He's made a fool out of everyone." "Now he has to stop." "He has to stop if he's going to stay alive." " Will you tell him?" " Oh, I'll tell him." "I don't think he'll stop." "Oh." "You've forgotten your beer." " Hi." "I'm looking for Mr. Ludlow." " Ah, you mean Mr. Ludlum." " You'll find him in his office up there, gov." " Thank you." " Mr. Ludlum?" " Yes, sir." "I understand you have a little old airplane for sale." " I'm Ross." "I called you this morning." " Ah, yes, sir." "Yes." " You'd like to take a little look, would you?" " Yeah, please." "She's a Stampe, sir." "Oh, the Belgian version of the old Tiger Moth." " Yes, indeed." "You know your aircraft, sir." " Mm." "She trained a lot of good fighter pilots in her day." " How many hours on the engine?" " A hundred and eighteen since the last overhaul." " A hundred and eighty?" " Eighteen, sir." "One-eight." " She's generally in very good shape." " How much are you asking?" "Well, you'll need to have a look at the logs and certifications, won't you?" " So let's nip back to the office and see what we can do." " Okay." "Look at Yaskov." "He must have seen Casablanca 12 times." "You better wait here." " I know where he is." " Who's that, comrade?" "May I suggest we pool our information?" "If I tell you the city, you will know how to find him in that city, yes?" " A new wrinkle on détente." " That manuscript is an embarrassment to us all." "If you catch him, your people will squeeze him." "We're not crazy about that idea." "At the moment, we feel it is more important he be neutralized." "He knows too much about our side, as well as yours." "Well?" "Sorry." "Very well." "He is back in London." "He flew there from Bermuda two days ago." " He's traveling under the name of L eonard Ross." " That figures." "I'd like to be able to tell you that we found him through brilliant detective work." "But in actual fact, one of my men just happened to recognize him at Heathrow." "I will want a quid pro quo one day, my good friend." "I bet you will." "See you in London." " Well?" " He's in London." " He gave you that for free?" " Of course not." "Nothing's free with that old fox." "But it does tell us one thing." " The Russians are just as nervous as we are." " You're learning." "By the way, he's traveling on your passport." " [Chattering]" " That's cheaper too." "[Speaking German]" "Uh, no, I'm sorry." "Sorry." " Parlez-vous Francais, monsieur?" " No, no." "This..." "Can you speak French or German, either of you?" "Does Alfie Booker still work here?" " Yeah." "He's out in the back." " May I speak to him for a moment, please?" " Sure." "Help yourself" " Thank you." " Here, I'll take this one myself" " Yeah, I like that one." "Alfred P. Booker." "[Laughs]" "Mr. Kendig." "Hey, it's good to see you." "It's been two years." " You lost a little weight, didn't you?" " Yeah." " Hey, how'd that transistor job go for you?" " The transistor?" "What..." "Oh, they never even knew it was there." "Not a clue." "I have something a little more difficult for you this time." "May I come around here, please?" "Tell me how practical you think that is." "[Laughing]" " Where are we staying?" " The Hilton." " Good." "And I set up a meeting for this afternoon with British Intelligence." "Yeah, well, there's no problem with the electronic stuff." "That's dead easy." "But it's the mechanics I'm not sure about." "Servo motors, some sort of hydraulic transfer." "Look, there is a chap I know in the navy, used to know all about this stuff." "Do you want me to get ahold of him and see if he can help us?" " How low do you think it will take?" " Give me a ring tonight." "I'll know by then if I can get ahold of him." "And if I can..." "I'll go down to the field tomorrow morning." "Could have it installed for you by nightfall." "How's that sound?" "All right, I'll call you." "Just give me your home phone number, if you please." "Yeah." "You understand, Sir Giles, this requires a certain delicacy on all our parts." "Yes, I'm sure it must be terribly embarrassing for all of you." "Of course, we in England would never allow ourselves to get into such a ridiculous predicament." " You see, what we need is..." " Yes, yes, yes, I know." "But it's quite fascinating, isn't it?" "The part where..." "I think it's chapter three..." "the bit about Somoza, Nicaragua." "Your Kendig's got quite a sense of humor." "Sir Giles, we would appreciate it if we could move forward with this." "Technically, it's not our problem, is it?" "He's broken no laws in Britain." "But, of course, hands across the sea and all that." "We'll be happy to cooperate." " Now, what exactly would you like to have us do?" " [Cutter] Manpower." "We'd like you to put a lot of people on the ports of exit... airlines, terminals, that stuff." "Well, that does seem to be rather fruitless." "We don't really know what he looks like." "We do have this, sir." "Ah." "Thank you." "Which one is, uh..." "Well, that's Yaskov." "What's he doing with Yaskov?" " That's part of our problem." " The main thing is..." "I'll have a word with the police." " We'll circulate copies of this to all ports of exit." " The main thing is... he's come to England for a reason; he didn't pick it out of a hat." "We think he's here to find a publisher." "There can only be so many publishers in London." "A dozen or so major houses." "Perhaps 30 or 40 small presses." "He wants to make a big noise, so he'd go to a big house." "But I think that's what he'll think we're thinking... so I think he'll go to a small one." "All right." "I've got friends in some of the publishing firms." "I'll get in touch and let you know what I learn." " Where are you staying?" " The Hilton." "Yes, of course." "I'll ring the Hilton the instant we've got anything of interest." "Good-bye, Mr. Myerson." " Yes, can I help you?" " Can you call Salzburg, Austria, for me, please?" "Yes, of course." "If you'd like to sit down..." " I'll tell you as soon as we get through." " Thank you." "[Singing, Indistinct]" "[No Audible Dialogue]" " The feathers in what?" " [Kendig] The Feathers Inn." "The Feathers Inn." "Sorry, sorry, sorry." " Don't you remember, darling?" " Of course I remember, darling." "[Sighs] Why don't you go get some lunch." "I'll take over." "All right." "Thanks." "Ah, Mr. Follett." "Come in." "Thank you." "[Clock Chiming]" " What'd you want to see me about?" " Won't you sit down?" "I wanted to see you:" "A..." "Because I'm tired of being watched 24 hours a day... and feel that you and I could come to some more civilized arraignment." "And B..." "I have just been speaking on the telephone with Kendig." " Where was he calling from?" " He didn't say." "He did say, however, he feels that this has now become a ridiculous charade... that we should all stop playing." "We'd be delighted to stop playing." " Would you like a drink?" " Thank you." "A little whiskey maybe." "Good." "Kendig would like to speak to you... because he's too emotionally involved with the others." "He said he would telephone about 1:30, which is..." "Oh, in 15 minutes." "I said I felt sure you would be here to take the call." "[Gasps] No ice." "Excuse me." "Oh, no, no, no." "That's, uh, uh, fine." "Oh, please." "An American without ice in his drink is unthinkable... if hot unconstitutional." "[Clock Ticking]" "[Car Engine Starts]" "[Chuckles] Nice boy." "Good boy." "Nice dog." "Stay." "Stay." "Good boy." " [Barking Continues]" " Stupid animal." "It's absolutely dynamite." "It could be our biggest book of the year." "Although, uh, I still want to see the last chapter, of course." "I happen to have it right in my pocket." "Finished it this morning." " Splendid." "I'm sure I shan't be disappointed." " Cheers." "Cheers." "Mr. Westlake, you probably won't see me again." "I've given someone a power of attorney... to get in touch with you regarding contracts and payments." "Under the circumstances, your absence will probably be our best publicity." "You're at considerable risk, aren't you?" "Well, if you publish this, you're going to be taking a risk yourself" "We've dealt with controversy before." "The spice of life." "These fellows don't play by the Marquis of Queen..." "It-It is Marquis?" " Yes, Marquis." " Marquis of Queensbury rules, you know." "Well, I certainly hope not." "Not half so much fun." "You wait here." "[No Audible Dialogue]" "Mr. Westlake, I'm terribly sorry." "These gentlemen..." " It's about the Kendig manuscript." " That's all right." " I've been looking forward to this." " Good." "Glad you're not gonna try one of those l-don't-know-what- you're-talking-about stories." "My name is Parker Westlake." " The point is..." " What's yours?" " What?" " What are your names?" "Smith and Jones." "From my reading of the manuscript, you have to be Myerson." "Are you Joe Cutter, by any chance?" "I'm glad to meet you." "Now, please, why don't we sit down and reason this thing together?" "Why don't you give us the manuscript?" "You can't publish it." "I think you're wrong about that." "Tell him, Joe." "I'm afraid he's right." "I don't like to make threats." "They sound foolish in the daylight." "But I am to infer that if I don't give you the manuscript... you'll creep in here one dark night and take it." "Or is it more along the lines of, uh... if you don't cooperate with us, we'll set off bombs in your offices?" "You said it, we didn't." "Gentlemen, let me tell you something." "I think this is one of the most exciting literary properties I've seen in a long time." "It simply isn't possible for you to suppress it." "Let me caution you." "I've run off copies of the manuscript... and had them put in safe places." "So even if I suffer an unfortunate accident... the process of publication will continue." "Naturally, we don't intend to use our usual printing house." "So no one will know where the book is... until it's far too late to stop its distribution to the bookshops." "I think your friend Kendig... has you well and truly by the short hairs." "If you publish that book, you're signing his death warrant." "There's only one man who can stop the publication of that book... and that's Kendig himself" "Why don't you talk to him about it?" " We can't find the bastard." " Find him?" "My dear fellow, where's the difficulty in that?" "He's staying right here in London at the Windsor Hotel." " What?" " The Windsor Hotel in Landcaster Gate... just north of the park." "Thank you." "Room 416." "Apparently, he's expecting us." "We'll take the stairs." " How'd you get here?" " He telephoned my embassy." " He's very democratic, isn't he?" " Yes, isn't he?" "I do like him, you know." "One can't help it." "Come on." "He's not gonna shoot you." "Shh." "Kendig?" "[Whispering] Close the door." "So he's expecting us, huh?" "[Kendig's Voice] Hello, boys." "Thanks for coming." "Why don't you sit down?" "Make yourselves comfortable." "Joe, give everyone a drink, will ya?" "Whiskey is right there next to the tape recorder... and there's some ice, if it hasn't melted by this time." "Sorry there's no vodka, Yaskov." "I simply forgot it." " Myerson, couldn't find any bourbon and coke." " [Chuckles]" "I suppose you're wondering where I am." "Well, we know I'm not about to try the airports... the boat-trains and the liners in Southampton... the trains to Scotland and the ferryboats to Ireland." "Did you think of Ireland, Joe, or did you slip up on that one?" "We thought of it." "[Kendig Resumes] Well, I'll give you a clue as to my whereabouts later on." "In the meanwhile, the reason I asked you all to come up here... is 'cause I want you to pick up a copy of my last chapter." "It's sitting on top of the chest of drawers... right next to the recorder." "That's all." "Why don't you take it home and read it?" "Enjoy yourselves." "Have a good time." "Thanks very much for coming, and, uh, good night." " [Click]" " Shit." " Good night." " Good night." " Good night, Joe." " Yep." "Good grief, Joe, you look terrible." "Well, you've been keeping me up past my regular bedtime." " Mm." "Chair, please." " [Snap]" " Myerson thrown in the towel yet?" " He wants to see you dead." "Oh, it doesn't make any difference whether I'm dead or alive, Joe." "He's all washed up now." "Doesn't he know that?" "Lean forward, please." "Hands behind your back." " How come he hasn't quit yet?" " He's a little bit like you." " He won't quit until he gets even." " Should be even by now." "He tried to emasculate me, and I retaliated." " What's your game plan now?" " There isn't any." "The game's over." "It's all finished." "I've had my fun." " It's too late for that." "I've got my orders." " Ahh." "I understand, Joe." "You'll never see me again after tonight." " I'll find ya." " No." "Did you pick up my last, uh, chapter?" "Yes, I did." "And I think you went a little bit too far." " Oh, I don't think so." " You know, I don't understand you." "It's not like you to paint yourself into a corner." "But I don't see where you've got any back door." " You're my back door, Joe." " I can't do you any favors." " Sure you can." "You already did." " I did?" "You know I'd never use this." "You didn't do anything about it." "I'm gonna have to put a gag in your mouth, Joe." "The cleaning lady will turn you loose in the morning." " [Sighs] I hope she's pretty." " Open your mouth." "Oh, uh, you can call your crowd off the airport." "I've got a little plane on the coast near Beachy Head." "I'll be taking off first thing in the morning across the Channel." "No bullets." "I'm proud of you, Joe." "[Rings]" "[Rings]" " Yeah?" " [High-Pitched] Hello?" " Hello?" " Hello?" "Joe Cutter is tied to a chair in his room." "You'd better cut him loose." "What?" "Who is this?" "This is Eleanor Roosevelt." "What?" "Who is..." "Hello?" "[Rings]" "[Rings]" " Hello." " [Kendig, Normal Voice] Hello, Is?" "Did you make it?" "No." "No, I didn't make it." "This is a recording of a person asleep." "How are you?" "Right on schedule." "As of how, the clock is running." " Well, where is it running?" " The Pond Gemington." "The Pond where?" "The Pond, near that beautiful graveyard." "You know, the one with the Norman church." "And all those cold stones." "Yes, yes, I remember." "I'll see you there in an hour." "[Sighs]" "Damn it!" "Police." "Thank God." "You fellas are never supposed to be around when you're needed." " Having a spot of trouble, sir?" " Yeah." "I got a flat tire there." "I just made a telephone call, came back, tire was flat..." " and there's no spare in there." " Your car, sir?" " No, it's a rental." " Well, that's where the spare should be, sir." "Yeah, but it's not there." "Listen, superspy, I wouldn't tell Myerson about this if I were you." " [Muffled] Fuck, Myerson." " Oh, by the way, did he get your passport?" " Where you from in America, sir?" " Flagstaff, Arizona." "Hey, is there a place around here I can rent a car?" "I got to get to Eastbourne." "Well, it might be a bit difiicult at this time of the morning, sir." "Why don't you come back to the station and wait for one of the garages to open?" "We'll make you a nice cup of coffee." "We'll be at the Lambath heliport in 15 or 20 minutes." "Right." "If he doesn't take off before daylight, we might just catch him." " What time is daylight?" " About 7:00." "It's 6:15 now." " Is a cab waiting for us downstairs?" " Yes, sir." " Now I want to know..." " I owe him one." "This is the quid pro quo, right?" "I'm in a little bit of a hurry, sir." "Um, is there any chance of getting an all-night taxi service... from Brighton or Seaford or one of those places?" "Here, Sarge, didn't old Tony Cosgrove used to run some sort of taxi service?" " Yeah." "If he's still alive." " He's still alive, all right." "Give him a go, Harry." "We'll have you away in no time, sir." "[Kendig] Thank you very much." "Sure appreciate it." "[Man] Now, let's see." "Tony Cosgrove." "This time we'll get there before him." "He'll never expect us to get a copter up." " You could be right." " You bet your fucking ass I'm right." "[Man] Straight along the A-20." "How long do you think you'll be?" " [Man On Phone] Oh, about half an hour." " It'll be about 30 minutes, sir." "Excuse me, sir, but what did you say your name was?" " Burton." "Henry Burton." " Oh, yes, that's right." "Thank you, sir." "I wonder if you could show me some means of identification?" " Sure." "You want a passport?" "Driver's license?"
