Thunderbird 6 Page #3

No. After all, they have

all been screened.

They're carefully

selected men.

That was a close one.

Put on the edited tape.

Right.

One thing's for sure.

We gotta play this

really cool from now on.

Lady Penelope,

I underestimated you.

Calling International Rescue.

Jeff, I want you to send

Thunderbirds 1 and 2.

International

fix system.

24-04. Reference E.

OH. Continue recording.

Doesn't sound as if we'll

get much more tonight.

When I was talking to you

just now, Alan...

I discovered a bugging device

in a lamp by my bed.

I wondered why you'd

changed your attitude...

so abruptly.

What's our next move?

For the moment, nothing.

We know we're being bugged,

but we don't know why.

We must just be on the alert.

OH. I'll mosey around...

and see what

I can find out.

Of course I understand,

Mr. Tracy.

It isn't quite the thing

you had in mind.

Of course I don't mind

designing yet another one.

You know, Scott, one

of the remarkable things...

about Brains is that he

never loses his temper.

Well, if he did,

I wouldn't blame him...

after all the work he's done.

Upset? Me upset?

Of course I'm not upset!

Go ahead, John.

Father, I've just

received a message...

from Lady Penelope.

It was sent in scrambled

electronic code.

Right, John. Let's have it.

It's just coming out

of the descrambler now.

It reads, "Ship bugged.

Reason unknown.

"Am investigating.

"Imperative, no

communication from you.

"Will contact you

when we have a lead.

"Signed, Penelope. "

F.A.B., John. Heep in touch.

I don't like

the sound of it, Dad.

We've gotta do

something about this.

Yeah. But what?

Well, why not

radio the police...

at their next port of call?

Have the crew interrogated.

No. Whoever it is

on that ship...

that is looking

for information...

is probably an agent for

a larger organization.

If we're to protect

ourselves, we've gotta...

wait for them

to show their hand.

You lead an interesting

but secretive life.

Your lifeline shows that you

will meet many dangers.

You will become involved

with a handsome stranger.

You would be well to let

your heart guide you.

Well... stone the crows.

Beautiful, Alan.

But it's far

too expensive.

Right. We'll take it.

You won't regret it, sir.

It will bring you

much happiness.

Oh, Alan, it's been

such a lovely day.

I just wish it

could never end.

The sari suits you

very well, Penelope.

It was a very kind thought,

Captain. Thank you.

Did you get anything

interesting today, Tin Tin?

Yes. Alan bought me

this beautiful ring.

He paid far too much

money for it...

but I'm very thrilled with it.

Buying a ring for a young

lady is prem significant...

to me, Alan. Don't tell me

you're going to desert...

the league of bachelors.

I'm afraid not,

Captain Foster.

The life I lead in

International Rescue...

is far too dangerous

to ask anyone...

to share it with me.

For me, at the moment, marriage

is out of the question.

That's right,

Captain Foster.

We all of us lead

dedicated lives...

in International Rescue.

And now, if you'll excuse me,

I think I'll retire.

But wouldn't you

like another drink?

Thank you, Captain, but no.

It's been a lovely,

but very tiring day.

I'm going to bed.

Oh, so soon?

I'm afraid so.

Good night, everyone.

So, your rooms aren't bugged...

but the lounge, bar,

and dining room are.

All places where I go.

It would seem it's me...

they want the

information from.

But what?

If we knew that, we'd know

the answer to everything.

Have you found any trace

of the receiver?

Parker's had no luck.

None. The only place

I haven't searched...

is the gravity

compensation room.

Well, the trip comes to

an end in 14 days' time.

Whatever move

they're going to make...

must be made before we

get back to England.

So we'll soon know.

I think I can claim to

have been to most places...

in the world,

but, oddly enough...

I've never seen the pyramids.

I've never seen them, either.

Well, we won't

have long to wait.

We land in 15 minutes.

Oh, how dreadful.

What is it, Penelope?

There's been

a terrible air crash.

A DX 102 airliner...

tried to make a forced

landing on a disused...

airfield 10 miles

south of Casablanca.

Its nose wheel collapsed...

and the aircraft blew

up, killing all aboard.

At last, we've got it.

I've got to hand it

to you, Carter...

that newspaper idea

of yours was just great.

Now, complete the editing.

I want to hear that final

message as soon as possible.

OH, girls, let's go.

Don't forget your

camera, Penelope.

Don't worry. I've

got it right here.

So, you see, Jeff,

we nearly lost Parker.

Ah, now here's the coded bit.

We are enjoying our trip

and looking forward...

to our last port of call,

Switzerland.

Scott, take this along

to Brain's lab...

and get it decoded.

Yes, sir.

Oh, that's all right,

Mr. Tracy.

I just love having

my designs turned down.

Gee, Brains,

your beautiful model.

Oh, h-hi, Scott.

Yeah. It just slipped

out of my hand.

Dad wants you to decode

this right away.

Gee, I wish there was something

we could do to help them.

Don't worry.

I've got a feeling...

it won't be long now.

Mr. Tracy?

Yes, Brains?

Decoding of Penelope's

letter is as follows...

"Interest is in me.

Reason unknown.

"Continue to stand by. "

Thanks, Brains.

Well, we now know that they're

bugging only Penelope.

They're interested

in what she says.

Now, what could

Penelope say...

that would mean so much

to someone with designs...

on International Rescue?

Jeff, I want you to send...

Thunderbirds 1 and 2

to a disused airfield...

10 miles south

of Casablanca.

International fix system.

24-04. Reference E.

Ensure that Brains is aboard.

This is imperative.

Do not acknowledge

this transmission.

Will call later

with further details.

Perfect. Just perfect.

OH. Now, what next?

Now, watch carefully.

Tomorrow, we make our

last stop... Switzerland.

It certainly is a fantastic

car you have, Penelope.

The only one of its kind in

the world, Captain Foster.

When those skis appeared

out of the bottom...

I just couldn't

believe my eyes.

Oh, it has many other

devices, Captain.

Many of them

still top secret.

Switching to full

boost, milady.

How are you doing, Tin Tin?

Fine. Just fine.

Switch in thrusters.

OH.

Right, have you decided what

you're going to eat?

Mmm. I think I'll

start with avocado.

Tin Tin?

Artichoke, please.

Likewise.

Ah. And for me the speciality

of the house.

This is a cute place.

It's certainly imaginative.

Let's hope the service

is as good.

Well, I guess

this is for us.

Gee, what a novel idea.

It must have been fun

traveling in trains...

like this years ago.

Well, let's unload the cargo.

As Parker would say,

"It looks a real good nosh. "

Talking of Parker...

what's happened to him?

Surely he's not

still outside?

But, of course.

The car is heated,

you know.

11:
OO. We must go.

The skyship is programmed
