Shanghai Page #6

---

...your friends, your husband,

the girl, and for what?

Tanaka's still here and your father's still dead.

You want to bring him down?

Tell me where she is!

You think that's all this is about?

Thousands of people are dying every day.

You think one life makes a difference?

She can hardly speak.

All she ever asks for is her opium pipe.

I just need to find out...

...who killed my friend.

Anthony, it's me.

Have you gone to bed yet?

Don't wait up for me.

I'll be home late.

Me too.

I miss you too.

Who is it?

Yes?

Captain Tanaka would like to see you.

Has something happened? It's past midnight.

He apologizes.

All right, let's make it quick-- Hey, hold it!

Wait here, Mr. Soames.

I hope you know you're in violation of

International Settlement laws.

You got no jurisdiction--

Where is she...

...Mr. Soames?

I don't know.

I have no idea.

Mrs. Lan-Ting never asked you for any help?

Introductions? Passports?

I'm sure if she had wanted any of those things,

she'd have gone to you, sir, or her husband.

There's no point in waiting. Proceed.

I'm sorry about these interruptions.

It's an unfortunate business.

We arrested a spy last night.

We arrested him on a train leaving the city.

His lover turned him in.

She was a spy, Mr. Soames.

You would admire her skills.

We did everything we could to break him down.

Even when we put him face to face with the girl

and she told him what she'd done...

...he refused to believe it.

It's amazing how a man holds onto an idea...

...even when that idea is so obviously false.

I suppose it's all we have to keep us going.

You're sure Mrs. Lan-Ting didn't tell you anything?

I'm sure.

I warn you...

...it isn't easy to watch.

We'll send an official complaint to their government.

Where are we going?

To the hotel.

We have to pack your things.

There's a ship leaving Shanghai at 8:00.

The girl's still alive. I've seen her with my own eyes,

I can find her.

It's too late. Even if she's still alive

there's nothing that you can do now.

Your cover is blown. Tanaka won't give you

a second chance.

I don't want a second chance. I want 24 more hours.

Please don't make this harder.

Just get the hell out of Shanghai.

You sure I can't change your mind?

Not this time.

You finally got sick of me, huh?

No, are you kidding me?

I just can't keep up with you.

That's because you're always watching my back.

You know as soon as I get there,

I'm gonna cause such a stir that they're gonna

have to transfer you...

Christmas in Shanghai,

old man. I'm holding you to that.

I'll get the key.

Hello?

My car's parked in front of the hotel.

Well, could you send it up? I'm in a hurry

Thank you.

An unpaid bar bill.

Is there any other kind?

Can I give you a hand with any of this?

Paul?

It's alright.

How is she?

Not good.

Where's Chen?

I sent him to buy more opium.

She's getting worse. I didn't know what else to do.

We need to get her to a hospital right now

or she's gonna die.

Get the car.

I need you to wake up.

I need you to talk to me, okay? -Okay.

Conner?

I was so scared.

Why were you scared?

Tell me why you were scared.

They were waiting for us.

Anthony.

I had no choice.

It was the only way to save you.

Your life in return for hers.

Sumi!

Sumi! What happened, Sumi?

There's an American hospital about a mile away.

We might be able to save her.

There won't be anyone left in your hospital

by the time we get there.

Japan has just declared war on the United States.

Our first fleet bombed Pearl Harbor an hour ago.

The invasion of Shanghai is already under way.

There's nothing we can do for her.

We can only ease her pain.

I can't do this alone.

Please.

Sumi.

Sumi. it's me.

What did you think she'd tell you?

Why you killed my friend.

She betrayed you.

That's how he found out about your plans.

I had the proof. He took pictures.

You met with the officers of the Kaga.

I heard about the plan to attack Pearl Harbor

through my informants.

I was never a part of it.

Yes, I killed your friend.

I didn't even know he was a spy when I followed her that night.

I shot him in the dark.

He could...

...have been anyone.

You won't suffer now.

Mr. Lan-Ting.

I need to ask your wife some questions.

Ask them at my house.

It's a military matter.

We had a deal.

Our deal was she wouldn't be harmed.

This isn't just business.

We're talking about my wife.

I don't have time to argue.

She isn't going anywhere with you.

She'll be returned safely.

I'll be back.

Don't worry.

Please.

Captain!

Wait.

Anthony.

Paul...

...please.

We have to leave.

This is Radio Shanghai.

The United States of America is at war...

Paul, I need your help to get her out of here.

Passports!

I'm driving for him.

Passports!

Go to hell!

Darling,

Darling, I'm sorry.

What did you say?

I can't hear you.

I'm sorry Anthony.

I can't protect you anymore. You must leave Shanghai.

Promise me.

Please, get her out of Shanghai.

No matter what happens stay close to me.

When we get to the port

they'll only evacuate Europeans and Americans.

Come on! Anna.

Come on, Anna,

we gotta get to the port!

Stay close!

Hold on to my arm!

Anna!

Anna!

Anna!

Hold on to my arm! Anna! Come on!

The port is now under-- Please stay calm, sir.

The port is now under the control

of the Japanese Army.

Foreign nationals will still be allowed to leave.

We left the house when we heard the first explosion.

I was sure I had the passports with me.

Well, I can issue you temporary passes

I just have to ask you a few questions

to satisfy the Japanese authorities.

So, what were you doing in China?

I came to help a friend with his business.

The business went bust, but fortunately I met my wife.

I guess you start looking for something...

...and end up finding something else.

And where do you plan to move after you leave China,

Mrs. Fitzpatrick?

We haven't had much time to think about it.

Your country is at war.

Your people are fighting for their lives.

Why are you leaving?

I'm going with my husband.

One day I will return.

We have to get out of this line.

He still hasn't seen us.

My wife's very ill. We have to get out of this line, please.

Please, my wife is very sick. I have to get her

out of this line.

She's very sick, please.

When he sees me I want you to keep walking.

No, no

Anna, Anna, please.

No.

The world had changed.

...and it would never be the same.

In Europe and in Asia the cities were burning...

...and the hunters came out at night.

Anna got off the boat in Macao.

I knew she'd go back to Shanghai.

She worked with the resistance.

Somehow she stayed alive.

Maybe luck, maybe courage.

You had to have both.

I know because I did the same thing

in other cities under different names.

Until the long night ended.

But Shanghai haunted me...

...so I returned...

..to her.
