Sounds good to me, Emma.

Make mine heavy on the onions.

- Hello. Having the same as always!

- Already got it, Emma.

- Thank you.

PATRoLMAN:
what took you so long?

- Just two bottles of beer, please.

- Thank you.

DoUG:

Ta-da!

when I pulled this little baby out,

the whole lake dropped two inches.

Go fillet that monster out back.

- Yes, my little cactus flower.

- Ugh...

Have you seen a bigger lake trout

than this around here?

Man, you could barbecue that baby.

- oh, say, Doug.

- Yeah?

It's not important,

but I'd like to talk to you.

All right. I'll be out back.

You talk and I'll do the work.

As soon as we finish our chili and beer,

we'll be there.

Hey, how about them bottles of beer?

we'll be right back.

I wanna talk to Mr. Stark.

we intend to do some fishing ourselves.

oh, go on back,

but he'll do all the talking.

Hi. where do you catch a big trout

like that?

Lake wilson. But you gotta know

the spots where they hide.

- A lot of woods up there?

- oh, yeah, lots of trees.

Reminds me of a poem by Robert Frost.

The woods are lovely, dark and deep

But I have promises to keep

And miles to go before I sleep

Remember, Melikyan.

Miles to go before you sleep.

Remember, Melikyan.

Miles to go...

...before I sleep.

My God. That's how-

That's how Dalchimsky's been doing it.

Even simpler. He uses the telephone.

Melikyan, listen carefully.

I am Major Grigori Borzov of the KGB.

The mission has been cancelled.

we are not at war.

Has Mr. Doug Stark returned yet?

- You.

- I am sorry to disturb you...

...but the matter is urgent.

You got business with the husband,

you take it up with him.

He's out back in the garage.

Thank you, madam.

Mr. Doug Stark?

BoRzo V:

Yeah.

The woods are lovely, dark and deep

But I have promises to keep

And miles to go before-

PATRoLMAN:

where the hell is Doug?

He went next door.

Said he'd be back in a few minutes.

oh?

- well, I guess we could use another beer.

- wash down some of Emma's chili?

Yeah, well, we can talk to him later.

MAN [oN RADIo]:

32-28. We have a minor...

Let's have a beer, huh?

woMAN:

32-28...

- Emma, let me have one of them drafts.

- okay.

woMAN [oN PHoNE]:

Operator.

operator, pay strict attention.

I have a great many long-distance calls

to make.

I want to speak with Mr. Herbert winters.

EMMA:

Here's your beers.

Area code 206-555-4549.

MAN:
Hello?

- Hello. Is that Mr. Herbert winters?

Yes.

Don't kill Gus!

The woods are lovely, dark and deep

But I have promises-

Gus!

Gus!

Gus. Look what they're doing to Gus.

Gus!

Let's go.

- Yes?

BARBARA:
Barbara.

Yes, Barbara? what's happened?

It's all over.

You can forget about Dalchimsky.

- But what does that mean? Is he dead?

- Yes, the major got him.

- And the major? Did you get him?

- I think so.

You think so?

Well, did you or didn't you?

well, I'll have to ask him about that

one of these days.

Ask him?

Barbara, you're not making sense.

Now, why didn't you do as ordered?

Think about it, Sandburg.

It would be such a waste.

If they wanted him dead, they'd want

me dead too. I know all about him.

I'd only be right back where we both

are now. out in the cold.

Barbara, listen to me.

Let us bring you both in.

we'll make a deaI with him.

oh... He knows how you deaI.

He's not gonna sell out

those deep-cover agents.

Right now they're harmless

and they have innocent families.

we're not coming in.

Well, then why are you calling?

The major wants me

to give you a message.

- All right. What is it?

- Stay out of it. Leave us alone.

Just forget the whole thing, because if

you don't, if you try to move in on us...

...the telephones

are gonna start ringing again...

...and this time, those bells

are going to be heard all over the world.

That's the message.

clarify, Barbara.

I don't understand what that means.

Then I suggest you check it out

with the KGB in Moscow.

we've just sent them the same message.

Now where do we go?

Remember, Borzov.

Miles to go before we sleep.

That's right. Ten more miles.

- You wouldn't really do that, would you?

- Do what?

Make those telephone calls.
