The computer's on the other side of this wall, Willy.
- We'll have to move these. - Right.
Willy.
I can't move my leg.
Dehominant-A kills in four hours.
Thanks to the computer and the technicians
your country has provided, we've been able to develop Dehominant-B,
which will be fatal in eight seconds.
It is your genius we are investing in, Dr. Vazan.
We know that you will not disappoint us.
- Doctor. - Excuse me.
We are ready now.
Commence production.
Our first 10,000-litre load will be delivered in four hours.
Thereafter, production will continue at the rate of 2,000 litres per hour.
Good. Good.
- What's wrong with him? - He sprained an ankle.
I am taking him to his quarters.
Too bad. Let me see your passes for this part of the building.
- Of course. - Just a minute.
- Good morning, doctor. - Let me see your foot.
Do not trouble yourself, doctor. It's not serious.
This man has been exposed to the dehominant.
Guard.
Orlov.
Security breach.
Willy, get out of here. Go tell Jim.
You were after the computer, were you not?
The chemical you were exposed to is very cruel.
You will tell us what we want to know or you will die a very unpleasant death.
Doug, how much time has Barney got?
About three and a half hours, at the most.
There has to be a way to get him out.
Just talked to Washington. We're going ahead with the mission.
What about Barney, Jim?
Barney knew the risks. We all know them.
We get him out if we can, but the mission comes first.
- We have to destroy the dehominant. - Jim, without Barney,
there's nobody in this part of the world who's a match for that computer.
There is, Paris, right here in this city. Personnel just radioed this over.
"Jerome Carlin, Ph.D., age 26,
specialising in computer technology, systems analysis, Teletex Corporation.
Brilliant innovations, near genius, speaks eight languages fluently."
What's he doing here?
Sunning, loving and loafing.
A dropout?
Well, how do you know he'll help us?
We'll have to make sure he does, Dana.
Jim, do we have the right to involve an innocent?
Do we have any right not to, Paris?
Vazan's government intends to use the dehominant
against their neighbours immediately.
They're already projecting 50,000 casualties.
How do we get him into the computer room?
And we can't go through the vault again.
We can't do anything the same way, Willy.
In three hours, they start manufacturing Dehominant-B.
I've got a whole new plan, and it starts with him.
Forget it. We're skipping tonight.
There's a cave in Crete where nobody's ever heard of me.
Miss Judy? Telephone.
From who?
Nobody knows we're here.
Can we have some more coffee?
Hello.
Hi.
Am I supposed to know you or something?
I'm Alix Wilson. May I join you?
I got the feeling I should say "no."
Thank you.
You come on pretty strong, Miss Wilson.
- What do you want? - Look, I haven't got much time.
Read this.
I'm sure my passport's in order.
Who am I speaking to, anyway?
Gerald Corrigan.
Of course, if you'd prefer to come down to the consulate...
Hold on a minute.
Now, maybe there's another Judy Moore.
Hang on just a minute, will you, please?
Hobbies?
Grandmother's maiden name?
This is a readout for a computer.
There's only one computer I know of that can set up this type of garbage.
That's that monster under the Pentagon.
Okay.
Who do you work for and what do you want?
You're direct.
Look, just speak your piece and get out of my life.
Have you ever heard of lnteroco Chemical?
Well, the plant's been taken over by the army
for production of a new weapon.
It's called a dehominant.
It's used in the same way as the defoliants in Southeast Asia,
except the dehominant kills men.
So does bacteria, hydrogen bombs, nerve gas.
So, what's a little dehominant? Look, fair is fair.
Look, they're planning to use it against their neighbours
- as soon as it's ready. - And you wanna use it against them?
No. No, we intend to destroy it for good.
The formula's stored in their computer.
Our specialist was caught.
We want you to take his place.
What, me?
Go in their plant and fool around with their computer?
You gotta be kidding, lady.
Look, we've got a man in there who's dying, because he...
I don't care.
Look, he knew the game he was playing.
All right.
Look, Jerry, we can pay you very well.
If all else fails...
Look, forget me.
I'm totally, completely, irrevocably uninvolved in all this, all right?
That's in case you change your mind.
Don't wait up.
The pain you are feeling
is a progressive deterioration of your central nervous system.
Within a comparatively short time it will result in circulatory failure,
respiratory failure and death.
But there is an antidote.
We can ease your pain with this.
We can even make you well with this.
Report to me in the computer room, colonel.
General.
All you have to do is to tell us how you two got in in the first place.
We reported in when the guards changed shifts.
And who are you working for?
We're just the two of us.
You are lying.
Autopsy room, furnace room.
Computer room, infirmary around here,
Vazan's office.
Now, the autopsy room is the best place to work from.
It's soundproofed, the door is usually kept locked.
There is a problem here at the security checkpoint.
But we have access through the furnace room.
The prisoner is dying. He won't talk.
- We'll have to use a drug on him. - No, that would kill him.
- Yes. - Now, have patience, colonel.
His agony will increase as death approaches.
- Yes. - Then perhaps he will talk.
All right.
Gentlemen, I have an order to return to our embassy.
Obviously, my country's role in this joint venture is most sensitive
in view of the breach of security.
Doctor, Colonel Orlov will make sure that nothing interferes with your work.
I understand, general.
I'll walk to your car with you.
We are 40 percent into stage two, doctor.
So I see, Tirkin.
Computer room.
For you, Dr. Vazan. The operator says it is Stockholm.
- Hello? - Dr. Vazan?
One moment, please, for Dr. Sohlstrom.
Dr. Vazan.
It's a pleasure to renew old acquaintance again.
It was here in Stockholm four years ago. Do you remember?
Yes, Dr. Sohlstrom. At the Peace Prize awards.
We are very interested in your work in pesticides.
I'm very flattered, Dr. Sohlstrom.
Now, a Miss Pederson of our research staff
is on her way here from New Delhi.
At the request of the committee, I contacted her this morning
to ask if she would see you this afternoon
to collect the latest details of your research in pesticides.
This afternoon? Well, I'm afraid that's impossible.
Dr. Vazan, may I be frank with you?
No one is held in higher regard by the scientific community than yourself.
We find it very hard to believe the rumours.
What rumours?
That your new colleagues have forbidden you
to release to the world the results of your brilliant research.
That's nonsense.
Dr. Sohlstrom, perhaps I could arrange to see her briefly this afternoon.
What'd you say her name was?
Pederson. Nora Pederson.
And I hope that we shall see you very soon in Stockholm.
Thank you.
Tirkin, the world is indeed insane.
What is this?
Police, Narcotics Division.
Oh, come on, man. We're clean.
Stand over there. Hands against the wall.
Do as he says, Judy. It's just a mistake.
Inspector?
High-grade heroin.
That's not mine. I'm no hype.
You're under arrest, young lady.
Take her downstairs.
- Jerry, what's happening? - You let her go...
Don't move.
You, stay where you are.
Take it easy, Jerry. It'll be all right.
- I love you. - I love you too.
Don't worry about it. I'll get you out.
You can put the gun away. I don't like guns.
Too bad about your friend.
She could be sentenced to ten years at hard labour.
Yeah. I'm going to the American Consulate...
Oh, come now.
You know how ineffectual the consul has been in drug cases.
Our jails are full of young drug addicts like her.
Listen, man, I've been with that girl for over a year. She's clean.
Actually, I'm not terribly interested in narcotics.
Intelligence is more my line.
You set Judy up, didn't you?
Did you agree to work with this lady?
No. I told her to get lost.
Did she tell you what she wanted?
Yeah, I was supposed to wreck a computer
at the lnteroco Chemical plant.
Did she tell you how they planned to get into the plant?
- No. - Did she tell you
who their contacts are inside the plant?
She didn't tell me anything. I didn't give her the chance.
I'm strictly uninvolved, all right?
That's too bad.
You see, there are many questions to which we want the answers.
We want you to join her group.
So that's it. That's why you took Judy away.
- I'm sorry. - I'll just bet you are.
Well, nice try, mister, but it won't work.
Look, I don't even know how to get in touch with that broad.
She gave me her card, but I threw it away, all right?
When I get in there, how do I contact you?
You leave that to us.
Well, supposing I get killed or something, what happens to Judy?
You won't get killed, Mr. Carlin. We'll see to that.
All right.
Now listen very carefully. We haven't got much time.
What changed your mind?
- I need the bread. - That's good enough.
Listen, we don't have much time. Come sit over here.
- Well, what are you gonna do? - Cut your hair.
Paris, Doug.
Jim, this is Jerry.
He had a sudden wave of patriotism.
Jerry
Help him into this, will you, Dana?
- Come on, hurry. - I'm hurrying.
All right.
Tank 4 is overheating. Start the seawater pumps.
Seawater is pumping, sir.
Close the seawater conduit to Tank 5.
Listen to me. If you wait much longer, even the antidote won't work.
Come, end your pain.
Tell us whom you're working for.
Only the man I was with.
If he so chooses, let him die.
Keep quiet and do what I do.
I have a requisition for a light van.
Animals for their lab experiments.
Autopsy equipment.
It's for real.
What am I getting so uptight about?
Their stuff's no worse than what we've got.
Weapons are all the same. They're meant to kill.
No arguments.
Then why are you here?
Maybe to keep one more weapon from coming into the world.
Yeah, theirs.
Jerry, I don't have to convince you. We've got a deal.
Their computer. You better get familiar with it.
It's like our 366-919 model, only a lot more sophisticated.
What am I supposed to do?
Destroy the dehominant while it's still being processed
- and erase the formula. - Oh, that's all?
The computer language is Kazan IV.
Now, how did you know I knew Kazan IV?
They don't use that in America.
You once tried to get it accepted
as an international language for process control.
You guys know everything, don't you?
You wouldn't be here if you couldn't do the job.
Well, there are a couple of things that you don't know.
Like suppose you're being watched right now.
And like suppose you don't even get to that computer.
What are you trying to say?
That maybe you ought to start thinking of a way that you can save your skin.
Oh, no, no. I've been had.
I've been had! You...
Jerry, shut up.
Cage him.
Her name is Nora Pederson. She's here to see Dr. Vazan.
Dr. Vazan.
If she's refused admittance now, it'd be apparent who is responsible.
Have Miss Pederson escorted directly to Dr. Vazan's office.
Dana.
Jerry, you can yell all you want, the room is soundproof.
We all stand a better chance of getting out if you'll cooperate with us.
After what you did?
Yeah? What were you planning to do to us?
You were ready to spy on us and, if necessary, to have us shot.
I was just trying to help Judy.
Jerry, to get out of here, you need us as much as we need you.
Don't give me that. I stand a better chance trusting them.
It's all right. I think I've got a soft tyre.
First, Dr. Vazan, I would like to ask you some personal questions.
Miss Pederson, I presume?
Colonel Leo Orlov, at your service.
My pleasure, colonel.
Please, don't let me interfere.
Thank you, colonel.
The first records we have of your pesticide research
appear in London in 1947.
What are you doing?
I'm going to become Dr. Vazan.
You're putting me on, aren't you?
- What's that? - Collapsible filing cabinet.
Oh, yeah.
I don't believe this.
Why are you guys doing this?
A lot of reasons. One of them's very simple.
We've got a friend about 200 feet down the hall
who'll be dead in 20 minutes if we don't help him.
A brief statement, Dr. Vazan, on why you decided
on the particular line of research that lead you to the pesticide 2-18.
It appeared to me that the molecular structure of the pesticide...
Miss Pederson, you did say a brief interview.
I am quite aware of the time I am taking.
I think that what the young lady is trying to say, colonel,
is that if you left us alone, we'd get through that much sooner.
Very well.
As you were saying.
We were speaking about molecular structure.
As you know, the carbon chain in 2-18 is overly...
Oh, Dr. Vazan,
is this the correct formula for the pesticide Z-18?
- Dana's ready. - We'll be finished in a minute.
You ready, Paris?
How's this?
Perfect.
He's not gonna fool anyone.
Hey, clowns.
You're not gonna get to first base on that computer without me.
We're sure gonna try.
- Which hand for the ring? - Left. Left ring finger.
Corporal, that goes right down the hall.
Guard, will you unlock the door to the autopsy room, please?
Doctor.
Colonel Orlov.
Miss Pederson. We were just finishing, colonel.
You can have him back now, colonel.
- Thank you very much, Dr. Vazan. - Thank you.
You'll be hearing from us shortly, I'm sure.
- Why, thank you. - Guard.
Have the lady escorted to the gate.
Miss Pederson?
Well, that didn't last long.
This is the real one.
- He's going fast. - Let's have a look at him.
I can still save you. Can you hear me?
I can still save you if you talk.
He's a splendid specimen.
Otherwise, he would never have survived so long.
Barney.
Barney, this is Jim. Listen to me.
Dr. Vazan, who is examining you now, is really Paris.
If you understand me,
blink your eyes twice and he'll know it.
Take this.
All right, Barney.
I want you to confess that two technicians...
- You'll really help me? - Yes, we can.
Then I wanna confess.
The two men I was working with...
Who? Who are they?
They're at the computer.
Vorek and Tirkin.
- Vorek and Tirkin? - Yes.
They fouled the alarm system on the north fence.
They were gonna mask what I was doing behind the vault wall.
They're still on duty.
They're doing it by themselves.
They're destroying production. They don't even need me.
Please help me.
But the progress indicator is...
We found a way to get around that.
Please?
Please help.
He's dead.
Take him to the autopsy room.
Thank you, doctor.
Who else on the base is involved in this plot?
There is no plot, colonel. We are innocent.
I don't think he's gonna make it.
We'll know in a minute.
Jim. Doug.
Barney. You're all right, Barney.
That's right, Barney. You're gonna make it.
How much time do we have to get to the computer?
Don't you worry, I'll handle that.
You will talk, just as your accomplice talked.
You will beg for the chance.
- Colonel, the man lied. - We will see who is lying.
Excuse me, colonel. We're wasting time.
Let me have the programming checked thus far.
Lock them up.
Replace them.
- Yes? - Have technicians lvanov and Reshin
report to the computer room.
I'm gonna ask you again. Will you help us?
No.
- Barney, run down the steps for me. - Jim, you don't have a chance.
We've come this far. We've got to try.
There's no way, Jim. You'll never be able to handle it.
There's no way.
Barney.
Hold it.
- What do you want? - You're gonna get us all killed.
Oh, you just figured that out, did you?
Wait a minute, wait a minute. Come and untie me.
I'll handle the computer.
Lookit, I lost my chance to be a hero with those guys.
My only chance is with you.
Come on and untie me.
Look, I don't wanna die any more than you do.
Thank you.
Barney?
My name's Jerry Carlin.
I just might be able to do the job.
What are the numbers on the start track?
Zero to 210.
What about erasing the formula?
Execute the clear disk and hit the volume label
S-T-M-dash-1.
Let's go.
Jerry, your name is Josef Reshin. You were born in Strasni.
Technicians lvanov and Reshin reporting, Dr. Vazan.
Doctor.
I don't know these two men.
They were processed before you arrived.
Security, please.
I want the dossiers on technicians lvanov and Reshin.
Reshin, come with me, please.
We have reason to believe that the computer
has been tampered with.
As you can see, we are almost at the final stage.
There are several significant deviations
from my prescribed production procedures,
but only in the last stage. Very subtle, but they are there.
What are you going to do?
- Do you have to start over? - No.
We'll correct the programming for the last stage and resume production.
Here, make these changes in the programming for the last stage
and resume production.
Programming is corrected, production is resumed.
Yes?
I appreciate your telling me that.
It's going well.
Yes?
What?
Dr. Vazan.
Yes, yes. Thank you.
- Now, something is wrong. - No, no. Nothing is wrong, colonel.
Here, let me explain it to you.
You know that we made certain alterations. Look...
- How's it going? - I wrecked their mixture.
Is the formula memory erased?
It is now.
Doctor.
We have reached this stage.
Examine this carefully, colonel, and you'll see what our next step is.
What do we do now?
- We walk out of the building. - Oh, just like that, huh?
Jerry, be as casual as possible and do everything that I say.
Right.
The big one said it was just his foot. I was going to let them go.
Then the doctor came up, saw what had happened,
I went for the alarm, and then someone hit me from behind.
Go.
What are you gonna do with him?
Put him somewhere where he can't develop Dehominant-C.
I believe you.
But three hours ago, I wouldn't have believed you.
Jerry
- What did they do to you? - You don't know the half of it.
