"Gentlemen?" "Gentlemen, it's quite true." "The weather continues to defy nature." "Overnight the temperature at the Arctic has risen 4.9°F." "Gentlemen!" "Another five degrees and Haifa Harbour is completely under water!" "It's true." "New York, San Francisco, New Orleans, Marseilles - every port's in danger." " Who is doing this?" "And why?" " It's the work of madmen." "Mad, sane..." "They're brilliant." "They're demonstrating that they can control the weather!" "Turn wheat belts into deserts, put icebergs in the Mediterranean." " Control the weather, you control the world." " What do they want?" " Why haven't they contacted us?" " Oh, they will." "But we're not going to wait for them." "We've just had our first break." "According to this dispatch I just received, our team of agents has them cornered!" "At any second..." "It was a trap." "We just lost another team of agents." " They know every move we make!" " They have a superb intelligence unit." "How can I find that laboratory if I keep losing manpower?" " How about 0008?" " Unfortunately he is not available." " International narcotics." " Please." "We can't use 0008." "They have a file on all our personnel." "We have to recruit from outside the organisation." "Well, ifyou'll write down the qualifications you believe necessary for the assignment, our computer'll give us the ideal man." "Stand by computers." "Derek Flint!" "My country awarded him the Croix de Guerre!" " Flint's wrong for this job." " Wasn't he under your command in the war?" " Forget it." "He can't take orders." " Derek Flint!" "Three promotions in a month!" " And our Medal of Honor." " I said forget it!" "Excellent chap, expert frogman." "Name's Derek Flint." "We need a man who can follow regulations!" "We need a man who's disciplined!" "Flint." "I don't care what these computers say." "I know this man." "He just..." "Yes, sir?" "Yeah?" "Well, uh..." "Well, how did you know, sir?" "Very well, sir." "Yes, sir." "Well, of course, that's your privilege, sir." "Well, ifthat's your wish." "Yes, sir." "Yes, sir." "Very good, sir." "Very well, gentlemen, uh..." "Derek Flint." "Mr Cramden wants..." "Mr Flint?" "General Hawkins." "Mr Cramden wants..." "What do you mean, he said no?" "I sent you..." "Yes, sir?" "But I sent General Hawkins himself, sir." "Yes, sir." "I'll contact Flint personally." "Yes, sir." "It'll be a pleasure, sir." "Sir?" "Flint..." "Lower your hand slowly and smile." " What?" " If he senses hostility, he'll rip you apart." "Smile, sir." "Thank you, Caesar." "Well, sir, this is a surprise." "Let me take your hat and coat." "Perhaps nudes aren't your dish oftea." "Have a cigar, sir." "No, thank you." "Breakfast, sir?" " I had lunch two hours ago." " Oh, I must still be on Moscow time." " Moscow?" "Business?" " No." "Ballet, sir." " You travelled to Moscow to watch a ballet?" " No, to teach." " Do you mind ifwe talk while I shave?" " After you." " Flint, I'm here because..." " You want something." " Don't be clever." "I came here on orders." " Bonjour, cheri." "Bonjour, baby." " Maybe my office is a better place to talk..." " I doubt it, sir." "Well, once you realise the importance ofthis project, I know you'll be interested..." "You know the high regard I have for you and your organisation." " Thank you." " But I think your file on me needs updating." "You see, as of late my interests are less governmental than personal." "All right for today?" "Excellent, carissima." "Later." "Now, Flint, in the past you and I have had our differences of..." "Well, discipline is a vital factor... that every citizen has got..." "Don't wave the flag in the bathroom." "Just come to the point." "Excuse me." "Flint, the government needs you." "Yes, well, it's good to be wanted, sir." "This is the most important assignment ever offered!" "I hope you find a good man for your project." " Ohayo gozaimasu, Derek." " Ohayo gozaimasu, honey." "Man does not live by bread alone." "Later." "Now, Flint, every computer designated you the best man for the job." " That must have pleased you." " Look, I don't bear a grudge." " I know we've had our disagreements..." " Sir, you know it doesn't work between us." "Later, baby." " Do you want a shave, sir?" " Flint, the world's in trouble!" "It usually is, but it manages to extricate itselfwithout my help." "You're still the same old selfish, arrogant...!" " Sir, you're getting edgy." " Don't tell me...!" "Later!" "Yeah?" "But I..." "Good evening, Monsieur Flint." "Paul, table number one." " Thank you, Maurice." " The pleasure is mine, Monsieur Flint." "Merci." "Stand back, folks." "Please stand back." "Give the man some air." "Thank you very much." "Give me that candle." "Why would anyone want to kill Mr Cramden?" "I think that dart was meant for me." "It seems I have ajob whether I want one or not." "Gentlemen, the new head of our operations team, the man you selected," "Derek Flint." "Thank you, gentlemen." "I accept this assignment." "Oh, I'm sorry about that crude incision, sir." "Thank you, gentlemen." "We'll now have a private briefing." "I owe you my life." "The medics said four more seconds..." " Three, sir." " Dammit, is there anything you don't know?" "A great many things, sir." "Now, ifyou'll excuse me, I'll need a few hours to prepare." "It worries me when he stops his heart." "It's over three hours, isn't it?" "Yes, but it does relax him." "Must be a dangerous assignment." "Ladies." "Sakito?" "You call Eddie and confirm our seats for the concert." "Gina?" "Venison's almost ready to be hung." "You'll take care of it?" "Leslie." " Call Freddie and postpone my fitting." " Till when?" " Wednesday will be all right." " Are you sure?" "Of course." " Your code book." " Ifyou don't mind, I'll use my own code." " I'd rather you used this." " Mine's a mathematical progression." " 40, 26, 36." "It's based on..." " I can imagine what it's based on." "Walther PPK with silencer." "High velocity, extreme penetrating power." "Yes, it's a very fine weapon." "Tempered steel." "Very effective at close range." "But I have no need for these." "They're crude." "Dammit, these are the most..." "Stopwatch, please." "When I nod, you start the stopwatch." "When I indicate "stop", stop." "This needle is dipped in curare." "How long did it take?" "Three tenths of a second." "Now, this contains 65 weapons." "This has 82 different functions." "83 ifyou wish to light a cigar." "Chemical analysis ofthat dart." "That's odd." "In addition to the poison, there were traces of garlic, saffron and fennel on the feather." " What proportions, sir?" " Propor...?" "Here." "Marseilles." "Bouillabaisse." "Huh?" "Throughout the world in the preparation of bouillabaisse, the proportion of garlic to saffron and fennel is two cloves of garlic to a pinch of saffron to a dash offennel." "Now, only in a certain small section of Marseilles are these three condiments prepared in these proportions." "Whoever handled that dart was in Marseilles within the last 24 hours." "Goodbye, sir." "Hold it, hold it." " These are the men under your command." " I don't need anyone, sir." " You said you'd join the team." " The team isn'tjoining me." " Dammit, man, for once you'll follow orders!" " This is my mission, sir." "I work alone." "Your mission?" "The US Government is involved too, not to mention the world!" "It's my show now." "You're under arrest, Flint!" "I'm glad to see you kept up your karate, sir." "These men wore Battle ofthe Bulge ribbons." " There's no ribbon for the Battle ofthe Bulge." " Exactly." "They're impostors." "Gridley?" "He's been with us..." "That's Gridley!" "Sir, ifyou look around the eyes, you'll see some scars." "On the bridge ofthe nose." "Plastic surgery." "You've cracked." "All this high living - you've cracked." "In here!" "They're dead!" "ln here!" "They're dead!" " Gridley!" " This one's gone." " Excuse me, sir." " What are you doing?" "What are you doing!" "We still might save him." "I've got a beat." "I, uh..." "I'll arrange for your transportation to Marseilles." "Oh, no, that won't be necessary, sir." "I have my own jet." "Yourattention, please." "PagingMrDerek Flint." "Yourplane is ready, sir." "You said nine o'clock, Mr Flint." "Yes." "Thank you." "Mmm." "Yes." "Check, please." "Finest bouillabaisse in Marseilles, monsieur." "Merci, monsieur." "The shipment went as scheduled." "I had some free time, and only here do they really make bouillabaisse." "I thought..." "You thought?" "It is your muscle that thinks, not your brain." "And this in plain sight of everyone." "A harmless jar of cream." "A little gift for one's wife." "A harmless jar of cream?" "Someone in this den ofthieves stole it and examined it." " Well, I thought..." " You will leave at once." "Look slowly to your right." "Yeah!" "More!" "Come on, baby, come on." "Come on, let's see you work hard." "Come on, baby!" " Hello, Flint." " 0008." " I wanted a word with you." " Yeah, my pleasure." "Narcotics." "A new, powerful drug." "Hear anything?" " No." "SPECTRE involved?" " It's bigger than SPECTRE." "Who is it?" "GALAXY." " GALAXY?" "ls that all?" " That's it." " So long, 0008." " So long, Flint."

"I heard it myself." "The explosion was live, and unfortunatelyso is Mr Flint." "Thanks to Rodney's desire forproof, we discovered there were no remains." " Why didn't you tell me?" " That you were unsuccessful again?" "Rodney, you mustlearn patience." "Gentlemen, forgive me." "You are scientists." "As such, you are accustomed to failure." "It merely increases your desire for success." "But in my business, failure is inexcusable." "We've treated Flint too lightly." "He's too dangerous to live." "Yes." "We've lostseveralgoodmen, anda valuedfriendin Gruber." " Gentlemen, I'd welcome the opportunity..." " We have notyetlost confidence in Gila." "Mr Flint will cause no more trouble."

"Now I can silence him permanently." " Put away the gun." "Violence hasn't worked." "You have proof of that." "Besides, how do you know he is alone?" "All right, Gila." "But you'd better be right this time." "It is my responsibility to deliver Flint." "Buongiorno." "Do you have an appointment?" "Well, not really, but I would like to see the manager, if at all possible." "My card." "Please, I couldn't think of accepting this." "Yes?" " There's a man here." "He's very insistent..." " My name is Flint." " I didn't..." " Thank you very much, my dear." "You have a very charming and efficient secretary." "Mr Flint, do you always barge into people's offices?" "No, I'd rather be invited." "Come in." "I've a feeling I was expected." "Have we met before?" "Twice before, Mr Flint." "Once in New York and once in Marseilles." "Oh, you must have been the blond harpist." "And Gruber's friend." "And you left me a little present." "Ajar like this, right?" " May I look inside?" " Some ofthem are harmless, Mr Flint." "You were right." "We were expecting you." "Well, here I am." "Now, shall we talk about the weather?" " About what?" " The weather." "Of course." "But not here." "Personal matters require privacy." "Oh, you have some little place in mind?" "A... a trap?" "You are prepared to take some risks, no?" "I'll answer all your questions." "Is that a deal?" " It's cold cream." " Cold cream." "Yes, it's a deal." "How romantic." "Rome at night." "A sky full of stars." "It is marvellous, isn't it?" "You can almost see a whole galaxy from here." "Shall we discuss it further?"

"They are controlling the weather from inside a volcano." "Right." "Inside a volcano." "Where?" "Where is this volcano?" "Not so fast, Mr Flint." "There are many other details." "Get some brandy." "Now, tell me more about that volcano." "He took the key." "He's on his way." " You say you speak English?" " Yes, sir." "This man you described, you took him to this address?" "Yes." "He was the one who was sitting there figuring out the lottery numbers." "Mm?" "Oh." "Yeah." "There's the building..." " What's the trouble?" " There's no building." " Will someone tell this idiot to make sense?" " All right, now what happened?" " Do you think he...?" " General, I didn't have anything to drink." "Now, just a minute." "Nobody's accusing you of anything." "We both know there was a building there." "And buildings can't disappear into thin air." " So what happened to the building?" " It disappeared into thin air." "Great intelligence work." "Your next post will be Peyton Place!" "You talk about discipline." " Why did you stop me from killing Flint?" " Are you questioning my loyalty?" "No, no."

"I believe your friend in the box there was brought up on stuff like that." "Poor heroic Mr Flint." " Report, please." " Section Four reporting." "Mission successful." "You have proof?" "." "Afterall, you have made quite a few unsuccessfulattempts." " That's true, Dr Wu, but..." " Valuable time has been wasted." "Several colleagues have been lost, and all through sheer negligence." "Had I been in charge, Dr Wu, things would have been different." "Flint was only a man." "Mr Flint was no ordinary man!" " We have his body with us." " How unfortunate there was no other way."

" Dr Schneider." "Dr Wu." "Gentlemen..." "I have not had the pleasure of meeting Mr Flint." "I am Malcolm Rodney." "Oh, yes." "How very smart you look in your GALAXY uniform, Mr Flint." "Don't you think so, Gila?" "We found this in his pocket, sir." "The Americans' fondness for marvellous toys!" "A weapon too, perhaps?" "You are obviously an extraordinary fellow, Mr Flint." "That you have come this far is a great tribute, Mr Flint." " Well, thank you." " I would say it's more of a tribute to Gila." " To Gila?" " Yes." "Or rather to her individuality." "She has allowed self-interest to supersede her loyalty to GALAXY." " If Rodney had shown me more loyalty..." " I carried out your orders." "We were unsuccessful three times." " I could have disposed of Flint!" " Gila, Rodney is right." "As head of Section Four, you were responsible for every mission." "But I have given my life to GALAXY." "Gentlemen, it seems to me that what it comes to is this:" "ln a moment of extreme decision, our dear Gila made an instinctive choice." "But that choice was not for GALAXY." "Her conditioning is incomplete." "It is our mistake." "We made a sentimental misjudgment." "True, Dr Schneider." "True." "You understand, Gila." "Now, you will be taken to the..." "No." "It's not fair." "Gila, GALAXY may be served in many ways." "As a woman, there is one way in which you may best serve GALAXY." "Gila!" "Gila!" "Take her to Preparation." "Take her to Preparation." "How often woman's animal nature triumphs!" "Perhaps now, Dr Wu, you'll admit that I was correct." "Strength has its merits, Rodney, but I value intelligence higher." "Gentlemen, Mr Flint's seemingly limitless talents can be of value to GALAXY." " Of course." " Yes." " I think Mr Flint has outlived his usefulness." " We will be the judge ofthat, Mr Rodney." "Mr Flint, we welcome you to GALAXY." "To GALAXY!" "Gentlemen," "I thank you very much for your kind offer, but you must know that I came to GALAXY not to join the organisation, but to destroy it." "You see, gentlemen?" "He's not worth saving." " When something is deadly, you kill it!" " It is a new world we offer, Mr Flint." "Gentlemen, your price is much too high for me." "You are wrong, Mr Flint." "Hear us, Mr Flint." "We seek no master race." "We are the friends ofthe common man." "Surely you must have noticed the absence of guns here in our paradise." "Violence is a last resort." "It was only the unenlightened resistance of a decadent world that triggered our actions." "Under our guidance you will become a useful scientist." "Take him to Preparation." "Wait!" "Gentlemen, I'm sorry." "But all my instincts tell me that" "Mr Flint's archaic sense of independence may eventually re-emerge, with disruptive results." "Dr Krupov is right." "Flint will never conform." "It may be best to return him to his elements." "The electro-fragmentiser." "I wonder what it is that always makes the Rodneys choose the wrong side." "Enjoy your defiance." "It'll be the last pleasure you have on this earth." "You're a foolish man, Mr Flint." "Gentlemen, the temperature in the Arctic is still rising, and so is the water level." "Sir?" "It's unanimous." "Capitulation." "The fleet is in readiness?" "Yes, sir."
