Cloak and Dagger Page #5

Well, wait.

We've got to get out of here. They're

not real sisters. How do you know?

They're stopping at an

automobile parked on the corner.

We're being watched.

Come on. Let me see.

No. Stay away from that

window. Wait a minute.

I follow my feelings. I feel scared

inside, and I'm responsible for you.

Trust my feelings. Listen. Let's

not get too jumpy about this.

If they're from the police,

we'd be arrested already.

I know there's something wrong. I

have more experience than you have.

We must get out of here

- and quick. All right, Gina

Have it your way.

Here we'll be safe

for the night.

I think this is safe. Then tomorrow,

as soon as it gets light, we'll move.

All right.

For a house that was being

watched, we got out awfully easy.

I trust my feelings.

I'm shaking.

I'm shaking all over.

Now you'll go to pieces, Gina

Every day you fall apart

a little more.

Too long. Too much.

Too much worry

and too much fright.

Too much death.

Gina, you're going to be

all right.

Don't worry.

I want you to like me.

I want you to be

jealous over me.

I want you to think I'm

a girl in a white dress...

who has never been

kissed before.

It's in.

The advertisement.

Where?

Here.

"Lieutenant Rinaldo Amadi."

They've got

Poldas daughter out.

Now we must go to

Romolis.

Nightmare's over, baby. And

another one starts to get Polda out.

We'll manage. Did you

get me a razor? Yes.

Razor... and a blade...

and... a piece of soap.

Thanks.

You're welcome.

Al, in our work

you meet a man or a woman...

for a day or a week,

then good-bye.

But in one day

heart's come close.

Maybe in peacetime

I don't even look at you-

say,

"silly American tourist."

But now I tell you,

I like very much

this long American,

and I want you to know.

Why only "like," Gina?

It's better. Easier.

Why?

Sometimes it's better.

Ouch. You must shave

- and hurry.

We've got to

go to Romolis

Give me your coat.

Take this.

Get into that doorway.

Gina, get Polda

Look, it's just like

killing a mad dog.

Except for the dog you can feel

sorry. It's not his fault he is sick.

E morto?

Dr. Jesper

Dr. Jesper

Yes?

I think you'd better drive.

Oh, it's nothing serious.

Just a little too much

excitement at my age.

I'll be again all right

as soon as I've seen maria.

All right.

Stop around the bend.

Jesper

That's the first time

I heard your name.

Jesper

I like it.

Thank you.

Lieutenant pinkie

at your service.

Pinkie.

Come on in, folks.

It's okay. It's pinkie.

Hi, Al

Pinkie.

Meet professor Polda How

do you do, professor Polda?

How do you do? Where'd

you get that stuff?

Oh, this?

My traveling costume.

Kind of a nice fit,

isn't it?

Oh, meet Pinaro.

Great old guy. If he were in uniform

he'd have a chest full of fruit salad.

Pinaro

Benvenuti.

Let's go in.

And, uh, this is Pietro.

Buona sera, Pietro

Where's Marsoli?

He'll be along any minute.

And with Signorina Polda

Is she safe?

Perfectly safe.

And very happy

she's going to see you again.

Run into any trouble? Not a

hitch in the whole operation.

Went like a breeze. We worked it

through a little girl in the hotel.

Nice kid.

A little scared at first,

but I- I appealed

to her better nature.

Grazie. Our Perugian friends

fixed up some papers...

that made it okay to

travel by train. Thank you.

This afternoon we got off

at the nearest town.

I figured the others would

make it easier here after dark.

So I came on ahead and checked on

our reservations for the trip out.

Oh, Pinaro Where do we meet the plane?

In a field

about four miles from here.

Grazie.

Gina knows where.

Can I go all the way by car?

Almost. It won't take long.

It's from Corsica. The

plane will land at 4:00 a.m.

What sort of plane

will they send? How big?

They know there are

four of us going out.

I know I should be wishing they'd

come quickly and it'll all be over,

but all I can think of is...

in one hour

we'll say good-bye.

Gina, there's room

on the plane.

There's so few of us here, even

one who runs away is badly missed.

You know that.

Don't you?

Yes.

I know that.

Signorina Polda

Si.

Grazie,

don Pietro Dora.

Benvenuti.

Pinkie?

Signori e Signora,

la Signorina Polda

But that's-

that's not maria.

What?

That is not maria!

Where is she?

Where is my daughter?

In the Perugia cemetery.

She died six months ago.

No. No,

that's impossible.

She's been writing me steadily.

The handwriting is

so hard to imitate.

It is no use. You're

surrounded by Germans

Throw away your guns and

march out with your hands up.

Surrender.

It's your only chance.

Get down!

Looks like they're gonna take their

time about it. They can afford to.

They'll probably have a whole Kraut

regiment out there by daylight.

Al, sometimes one guy carries

the ball, sometimes another.

There's a way out of here

through the cellar.

Grab the old man and Gina and

beat it. I can't do it, pinkie.

Don't go soft on me now.

There isn't time.

It'll be light in an hour,

and that plane can't wait.

Why don't we all try it together?

The only way you can make it...

is if we do enough shooting to

convince them we're all still here.

Now get going!

No, pinkie.

My orders were to get you into

this country and get you out.

Don't go soft on me

at a time like this!

Gina, get him out through the trapdoor.

That's an order. For you too, Al

Put the light out.

Jesper

Gina

I can only give them

five more minutes.

There they come.

Gina!

Gina, girl, after the war

- who knows what'll be then?

I'm coming back.

Things change.

People change.

I'm coming back for you, Gina

Who knows?

Don't you want me to?

If you don't, say so.

Say it now.

"Want"?

"Want"?

More than living.

Come back.

Come back for me.

Good-bye, my darling.

I'll be back.
