- Dammit, man, for once you'll follow orders!- This is my mission, sir. I work alone.

Your mission? The US Government isinvolved 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 yourtransportation 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 theyreally make bouillabaisse. I thought...

You thought? It is your musclethat 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 thisden 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.

Hans Gruber, Hitler Youth Movement,escaped during the Nuremberg trials.

I'm a much nicer person now.

Well, I'm glad to hear it.

Appenine-Tuscan kaolin.

Water from the Pontine Marshes.

Cold cream.

- Rome? Why the hell is he going to Rome?- I don't exactly know, sir.

"To buy ajar of cold cream."

Cold cream. Cold cream, eh?

The world is crumblingand he's buying cold cream.

- Yourreport?- Mr Flint will cause no more trouble.

An interesting statement, butnotfactual.

The explosion. 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. I havejust received the information I requested.

You mean the impregnable Mr Flintdoes have one weakness?

No, Dr Schneider. Four.

- Madam?- Yes, would you unzipper me, please?

Thank you.

"Am walking into... trap."

"Heading for the Exotica Beauty Factory."

"If lucky, will lead to laboratory."

"If not, please send flowers."

I'm leaving for Rome immediately.You can contact me at the embassy.

Gila? Our visitorhas arrived.

- Good. Now I can silence him permanently.- Put away the gun.

Violence hasn't worked. You have proof ofthat. 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 liketo 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 charmingand efficient secretary.

Mr Flint, do you alwaysbarge 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 wetalk 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?

I thought we were gonnatalk about the weather.

You won't believe me. You're too shrewd, tooexperienced to pay attention to our secret.

You try me.

They are controlling the weatherfrom 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 therefiguring 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 merely thought you might have felt...

certain stirrings.

You are romantic yourself, Rodney.There's verylittle air in thatsafe.

Flint will die of suffocation.

- Your way wouldhave been kinder.- Myapologies, Gila.

How very thoughtfulyou are.

"Have discovered locationof enemy headquarters."

"Advise you send fleet thereat once and destroy it."

Congratulations on the capture ofFlint.You have done well, Section Four.

- Get him back! We gotta find that location!- Yes, sir.

That's it. That's... What's the message?

"Will give you location later."

"Am headed for...

a family reunion. Regards, Flint."

A... family reunion?

Well, you were right. He's dead.

- You will arrange for the coffin.- I've already arranged it.
