-l can't do anything right!

-l don't feel good either.

-l never wanted to be a spy!

l never spied on anything.

Listen, l would defect,

but l don't know where to defect to.

But they're gonna kill me!

What am l gonna do?

l'll tell you what.

You're gonna make a clean breast of

the thing and tell them everything!

-And name names, that's what!

-Names? l don't know any names.

Well, you get orders from someone,

don't you?

Only over the phone. You know,

l would recognize his voice.

-Well?

-He's some spy!

They didn't even give me a number!

Well, you're gonna get one now.

-That's Gismo.

-Gismo?

-You are a spy?

-l am not a spy! Don't you say that!

l don't know how that got in my purse.

You just shut up, Julius.

And l'm gonna find out right now.

Don't talk like that.

We tried to hold him, but he got away.

Well, you've got his description.

Work on it.

-We really goofed this one.

-You can say that again.

-Hello?

-Edgar Hill, please.

Yeah, Jenny, listen. Darling,

l've been trying to call you.

-Let me explain.

-l wish to speak with Edgar Hill.

l thought you might, Mrs. Nelson.

Mr. Hill. Thank goodness you're here.

l-- l was just calling you.

Jenny?

Jenny?

-What'd she say?

-Where is she?

Call the local police right away.

-Me, sir?

-What do you mean, ''Me, sir?'' Step on it!

-Right, sir.

-Let's go.

Mr. Templeton, what's going on

with my daughter?

-Where is she?

-Axel, she's in big trouble.

Show me where she lives.

We got her into this. Let's go.

And so we suspected you, of course.

That's the reason we planted

those phony plans in your purse.

Excuse me.

l think he's trying to tell you

he recognizes my voice.

Yeah, he's the one that gave me

the orders on the phone.

-You're the spy!

-At your service, Mrs. Nelson.

And now l've got an order for you.

Give me those.

You'll never get these plans

from me. Never.

Mrs. Nelson, l'd rather not

do anything rash.

-Come here.

-Call the cops!

-Call the cops!

-You leave her alone!

Mayday. Unit Four signaling mayday.

One more question. Who's Vladimir?

-A dog.

-Not your opinion. What's his racket?

General Bleecker here.

We are now proceeding to the scene--

Will you stop that coughing?

Mayday. Mayday.

Anybody out there? Over.

Heard you, Unit Four.

This is Gravy Train.

Max's All-Night Diner. Repeat message.

Come in, Gravy Train. This is Albacore,

Rocky Reef Lighthouse.

-What's up?

-I don 't know.

Sounds like the dame's in trouble.

Unit Four here. Come in, please.

Help! Help.

Tijuana, Mexico.

Can I patch up a phone call?

Boy.

Sorry, Julius.

Hey! She's a nice lady--!

Take that!

Norman! Did you hear that?

Must be a drunken cat or something.

Shut up, will you? You sound like a dog.

There are two people in this house.

Yeah, one of them is nuts.

Norman! Norman!

-Shut up!

-You can't talk to me that way!

Will you shut up and let me sleep!

Turn!

Hey! What--?

Well, come--

Jenny. We're here.

-Get me out of here!

-Help is on the way.

-Give them hell, honey.

-Call a cop!

-Zack, the mynah bird.

-The what?

Call a cop! Call a cop!

Wait a minute.

Officer!

Officer, can l speak to you

a moment? Officer!

Hello, Mabel.

Jenny!

Jenny!

Jenny!

Oh, no.
