- How long can he stay under?

He's moving.

Stand back, everybody.

Mr. Thorn.

Hurry.

Hold on. We'll get you.

Spread out! Everybody spread out!

Richard... I'm leaving soon.

Well, Paul, your time came

sooner than we expected.

You're going to be alone

as the new president for a while,

because Ann and I

are going to take a vacation.

Don't worry, Richard.

I think we've covered everything.

Thanks for staying around

the last few days.

I appreciate it.

- Morning, Byron.

- You're on the newsstands this morning!

You must've seen it already. I think it's neat.

- Have you heard from Pasarian?

- No. He seems to have disappeared.

- Richard wants to see you.

- He's back from his vacation?

- Yeah, he looks great, too.

- He needed it.

What the hell is Pasarian doing in India?

I needed a second opinion

on our proposed land purchases there.

We're not buying already?

You agreed I could activate

the conclusions in my report in full.

That doesn't exclude me from making policy

decisions as far as the company's concerned.

- You were on holiday.

- You could have reached me by phone.

Bill Atherton wouldn't have

made those decisions.

- I'm not Bill Atherton.

- I don't expect you to be.

But I do expect you

to observe the rules of company conduct.

I'll remember.

What did you want with Pasarian?

There's something wrong with the design

of his P-84 unit. Walker's agitated.

I know he's the voice of doom and disaster,

but this time he has a point.

Leave it to me, Richard.

By this time, Napoleon thought

he was invincible,

and this is where he made his big mistake.

When he attacked, the Russians

skillfully retreated into their own country.

They lured him on,

and he reached Moscow to find it in ruins.

Who laughed?

I did, sir.

You?

Come here.

With that piece of paper.

So we have an artist in the class.

What's wrong, Thorn? Am I boring you?

You, of course,

know all about Napoleon's campaigns?

- Something about them, sir.

- Do you now?

- How many men did he lose in Russia?

- 450,000, sir.

The Russians played at surrender

until winter,

and then he began his disastrous retreat.

Despite Marshal Ney's

heroic rearguard action,

the Grand Army was cut down

from 600,000 to less than 50,000.

- Date?

- 1 812. He was deposed as emperor in 1 814.

- And then?

- After a brief exile in Elba,

he went to France and began the Hundred

Days' War, until he was defeated at Waterloo.

- A date?

- 1 81 5.

Come here.

Outside.

Copy the blackboard.

What were you trying to do, Damien?

- What were you trying to do?

- I was just answering questions, Sergeant.

- You were showing off.

- No, I just knew all the answers.

Somehow, I just knew them all.

- You mustn't attract attention.

- I wasn't trying to. I just felt...

The day will come when everyone will know

who you are. But that day is not yet.

- What do you mean?

- There are things you don't understand.

Read your Bible. In the New Testament,

there is a Book of Revelation.

For you, it is just that -

a book of revelation.

For you. About you.

Read it. 1 3th chapter.

Read. Learn. Understand.

What am I supposed to understand?

Who you are.

"And all the world wondered after the beast."

"And they worshipped the dragon

which gave power unto the beast:

..and they worshipped the beast,

saying 'Who is like unto the beast?"'

"'Who is able to make war with him?"'

"And I saw the beast, and the kings

of the earth, and their armies,

gathered together to make war against him

that sat on the horse, and against his army."

"And through his policy also shall he

cause craft to prosper in his hand;

and he shall magnify himself in his heart,

and by peace shall destroy many."

"He shall also stand up

against the Prince of princes."

"And he causeth all, both small and great,

rich and poor, free and bond,

to receive a mark in their right hand,

or in their foreheads:

And that no man might buy or sell, save that

he had the mark, or the name of the beast,

or the number of his name."

"Here is wisdom."

"Let him that hath understanding

count the number of the beast:

for it is the number of a man;

and his number

is six hundred and sixty-six."

Right...

face!

What's wrong?

Why?

Why me?

Where did you go to?

Why aren't you speaking to me?

Damien? Are you all right?

I'm OK now.

Go to sleep.

Flight 63 to New York's John F Kennedy

airport - now loading at gate 37.

All passengers scheduled on flight59

to Houston, Fort Worth,

please check with your airlines agent.

There will be an approximate delay

of one to two hours.

This is the Thorn residence.

No, Mr. Pasarian. He's out.

Yes?

Pasarian! Where the hell are you?

Listen...

Listen. I think you'd better

get over here right away.

All right.

Not in.

Why would Pasarian call me here?

Oh, well. I'll call him tomorrow.

Hello.

And when I telephoned him the next day,

they told me he was dead. Murdered.

- What?

- Strangled.

Are you telling me that because he refused to

sell to us, he was killed by one of our people?

- I'm almost sure of it.

- Impossible.

Look, I was in eight provinces

evaluating land you want to buy,

and in three of them, three killings.

- Who's responsible?

- I've no idea.

- I'll look into it.

- Shouldn't we tell Mr. Thorn?

I'll talk to him.

By the way, he wants to see you.

- What for?

- The P-84's been acting up.

There's a report on your desk. Take care of it

tomorrow. I don't want to shut it down.

Yeah, I'll take care of it.

I hope we don't have

some overenthusiastic men in the field.

Come on, everybody. Let's go.

All right, you guys, how do you like it so far?

This huge complex I'm about to show you is

run entirely by three men and this computer.

Mr. Thorn's office, please.

Hello, is Mr. Thorn in yet? it's Pasarian.

He still hasn't called?

I know. I know.

Please, keep trying. Thank you.

Have you got the P-84 check list?

Put your hats on, please, gentlemen.

Keep your glasses on at all times, please.

Put your hats on and your glasses.

Now, as you know,

to make crops grow faster and fatter,

you need more improved and powerful

fertilizers - pesticides as well.

Isn't there a pesticide that works on sex?

That's right. Sex attractants - pheromones -

are extracted from one sex, put into traps,

to attract other insects
