The Man from U.N.C.L.E. Page #5

...on which he would produce

his greatest work.

You will go here, Mr. Solo.

A whole page just for you.

And not in black and white,

like the others. No.

Kodachrome.

The colors are so real,

you can almost taste them.

Ready?

There are two kinds of...

...torture, Mr. Solo.

One is for the extraction of information.

The other...

...is for its own sake.

I must admit this does get frustrating.

But fortunately...

...I'm in an old-fashioned mood.

I think we'll start...

...with the pliers.

I never thought I'd say this.

I'm actually quite pleased to see you.

You doing okay, cowboy?

- I thought I found all your trackers.

- You did.

Just not the ones in your shoes.

Do you mind?

You don't have to do things to me to make

me talk. I'll tell you everything I know.

You won't be able to stop me.

- What about Gaby?

- She betrayed you. I will testify.

Don't kick yourself.

- She fooled me too.

- It's not the same.

- They have a glitch.

- Then I'll fix it.

Wait. Please, wait.

- Do you still have Teller?

- Yes.

Has he succeeded

in enriching the uranium?

We are way beyond that.

There's already a bomb,

a nuclear warhead.

The Reichsmarschall will take delivery

tomorrow morning at 8:00.

They're sending a submarine.

Between that time and now,

it is being held...

...on Vinciguerra Island,

the family's private retreat.

I'll appear in court.

I'll inform on anyone.

I don't even need to know them. Heh.

I'm yours to command.

Will you give us a minute?

Don't go anywhere.

I'll be right here.

What should we do?

- We have to get to that island.

- What should we do with him?

It's your call.

You're the one

he's been having fun with.

On the one hand...

...we need him,

he's a world of information.

But on the other hand...

...I know exactly what'll happen.

He'll strike a deal and struggle out of it.

He's prepared to sell his ass on this,

and for that, they'll give him his freedom.

He'll be out within months.

Or worse. They'll offer him a job.

A man with that skill set's

never wanting for employment.

- So, what do you think we should do?

- Just give me a minute.

He fixed the glitch.

Damn.

I left my jacket in there.

I'll let you two get reacquainted.

Okay.

Thank you.

That got their attention.

They'll have chopper waiting for us

at airport.

Gaby.

Mr. Solo. We meet again.

Mr. Kuryakin. My name's Waverly.

I believe your instructions are

to follow me, so...

...follow me.

Very well done, my darling.

They will send an army to stop us.

Then we must give them

an appropriate welcome.

The line is secured.

You're now connected, sir.

You will report to Commander Waverly...

...of British Naval Intelligence

for the remainder of the mission.

It is vital you retrieve Dr. Teller

and the computer disk.

They are the key to the U.S. of A.

winning the arms race.

Kill the Russian, if necessary.

Gentlemen, can you hear me?

Well, now if the Nazis are due

to take delivery...

...of this bomb at 0800, that gives us...

...a luxurious 14 hours in which

to seize the island, secure the warhead...

...and winkle out poor Professor Teller.

There is also, of course, the,

small matter of retrieving my agent.

- You have British agent in this?

- Well, she's not British.

- "She"?

- Here we go.

I'm starting to smell the irony.

Gaby's working for you, isn't she?

Well done, Solo, yep, yeah.

You got there in the end.

My father has been unwell.

That and the stress led to self-doubt.

He's ready now to resume his work.

- A daughter's touch.

- Gaby has agreed to assist me.

To assure I finish in time.

- Now that is a good idea.

- You're wrong.

The thing is, Kuryakin,

when Professor Teller disappeared...

...we assumed his Nazi colleagues would

come knocking at his daughter's door...

...so we recruited her, and waited.

And what we got, of course, was you two.

I've been meaning to thank you very much

for nearly fouling up two years of my work.

You're wrong.

I saw her betray us at Vinciguerra.

Yes. I told her to.

The meeting is confirmed.

I think you know what you have to do.

You were about to be exposed, Kuryakin.

The only way she could stay in the game.

She knew the ring

you gave her was bugged...

...and you'd be listening

to every word she said.

If you can catch him.

Give the average agent time to escape...

...and you are not average,

are you, Kuryakin? You're special.

Let me translate this into English.

You told Gaby to drop us in it,

so you could find her father first.

But now you've lost her, so you need us

to help find her and finish the job.

Well, that is a very poor translation,

Solo, but...

Well, in a nutshell, yes, please,

thank you very much.

I think it's rather nice.

We're obviously all very fond of Gaby and

now we have a chance to save her, so...

Terrific. We're a little early.

What is that?

It's an aircraft carrier, Kuryakin.

For a special agent, you're not having

a very special day, are you?

Reflector lens.

So, what does that do?

Well, it's known as a coupler.

It sends a signal

which enables another missile...

...to lock onto this one

for double the impact.

It's left over from when this was a warhead

that contained conventional explosives.

Now that we are converting it to nuclear,

it's redundant.

I'm sorry.

We're nearly done, Victoria.

Those are the words

we've been waiting to hear.

- What are you doing?

- Let's stop playing games, shall we?

Put her in a cell.

If you don't hear from me

in 20 minutes, kill her.

That's how long you have to finish this.

You can start by putting back

the correct lens, professor.

So Vinciguerra Island.

The plot is, and stop me

if I get this wrong, Jockelson...

...a stealth attack on the island

from the sea.

We shall go in through the front door

here at the harbor.

Jockelson and his men will get you

in there and keep the enemy entertained.

The rest is up to you.

It's done.

And with three minutes to spare.

The computer disk

with your research on it. Where is it?

And the backup.

What about Gaby?

She'll be joining you shortly.

Looks like we found Dr. Teller.

The bomb was here.

Illya, come in.

I'm here.

Alexander has Gaby and the bomb.

They're at the entrance.

Illya!

Hold on!

Solo!

Cowboy.

I'll be okay, Peril.

It's okay.

Well done, chaps.

Just one small snag.

Wrong warhead.

So it's a decoy.

No, no, no, it's a real bomb.

Quite a nasty one too.

But not nuclearized.

There's no uranium in it.

There was a second warhead in the lab.

Did you check everything I asked?

Radar, sonar, aerial patrols...

...all report no other vehicles

have left this island since last night.

That includes submarines.

What about fishing boats leaving

the mainland?

The boats go out every morning at dawn.

I saw them. How many of them are there?

Almost 100.

They are spread out over

a 60-kilometer radius by now.

And that radius is expanding every minute.

We don't even know

which boat we're looking for.

Rumor has it that Sergio Vinciguerra...
