Speaker 1: There is an old familiar saying everyone has two countries
Speaker 1: their own and France. For France is the land of individualism,
Speaker 1: where you can allow your personal idiosyncrasies full play and
Speaker 1: apologize for them with complete acceptability by the simple remark
Speaker 1: jesuit com sa you are like that. It's all that
Speaker 1: need be said. In France. Every person has a right
Speaker 1: to be themselves. They needn't conform to the model of another.
Speaker 1: It is this freedom that's made Paris the hoopla capital
Speaker 1: of the world and one of the world's great cultural centers.
Speaker 1: There is perhaps no other place in the world that
Speaker 1: can contribute more to the spiritual development of the individual
Speaker 1: By virtue of the influenced. Paris brings to bear upon
Speaker 1: anyone sensitive to beauty, measure, and intellectual stimulation. The best
Speaker 1: proof of this fact are the many expatriot that live
Speaker 1: in Paris who come to admire but remain to praise.
Speaker 1: But whether you visit Paris for a day or stay
Speaker 1: a lifetime, the city will indelibly leave its mark.
Speaker 2: Huh the audacity and ingenuity of some people.
Speaker 1: What are you reading this morning's sight on?
Speaker 2: I grabbed it from the airport. They have a story
Speaker 2: about a daring escape from East Berlin. A vehicle spit
Speaker 2: right below the gate of checkpoint Charlie.
Speaker 1: Sounds daring, to say the least.
Speaker 2: Well, you can't blame them, being trapped in a country
Speaker 2: that takes away your voice, your independence, and keeps you
Speaker 2: caged like an animal.
Speaker 3: How could you not.
Speaker 2: Want to escape?
Speaker 1: Leaving East Germany for Paris feels like we are escaping ourselves,
Speaker 1: doesn't it.
Speaker 2: Hmm, absolutely, though Martin certainly keeps us on a night schedule.
Speaker 2: How long are we here for this time?
Speaker 1: I'm not sure yet, but booking us at the Ritz
Speaker 1: is a good way to apologize.
Speaker 2: He has been boiling us with hotel choices.
Speaker 1: I'm not complaining as long as it doesn't affect our budget.
Speaker 2: I'm looking forward to seeing a new side of Paris
Speaker 2: I haven't yet. It will feel like being a tourist
Speaker 2: in our own city.
Speaker 1: Feeling like a tourist is right. Martin sent the list
Speaker 1: of sites he wants me to hit with Rebecca, and
Speaker 1: it's everything from Notre Dame to the Eiffel Tower.
Speaker 2: Paris is one of the biggest tourist destinations in the
Speaker 2: world and one of our best sellers.
Speaker 1: And he wants it all captured in color.
Speaker 2: But it can wait until tomorrow.
Speaker 1: Yes, yes, but tomorrow will be a busy day.
Speaker 2: I think I'll check in at the office in the morning,
Speaker 2: maybe even start looking for new space with Lily already.
Speaker 2: This new expansion is going to require more than just
Speaker 2: adding a few desks.
Speaker 4: We need offices, a reception.
Speaker 1: I suppose you're right, better to be prepared. Do you
Speaker 1: have places in mind?
Speaker 2: I was thinking something in Montmartre would be nice.
Speaker 1: I don't know. Perhaps it's too far. Maybe you should
Speaker 1: look for something closer to the river.
Speaker 2: Will debate neighbor's tomorrow. Tonight we check in, take a
Speaker 2: bath and reeling.
Speaker 1: We will monchuris vulvu couche avec mois this one?
Speaker 2: But if you play your cards right, and here we are.
Speaker 1: The Ritz Hotel is charmingly located and possibly the most
Speaker 1: harmonious square in Paris, with the von Dome column rising
Speaker 1: in its center and surrounded by luxury shopping and exceptional restaurants.
Speaker 1: The hotel possesses two tiny bars, which are the most
Speaker 1: elegant places in Paris to meet before lunch or dinner,
Speaker 1: and a new attractive restaurant, the Espadont, which hosts a
Speaker 1: celebrated weekly de jonet Monden. The Ritz has two hundred
Speaker 1: and ten large, handsome rooms, the majority of which have baths,
Speaker 1: attended to by a staff that's greater in number than
Speaker 1: it's guests, and the service can be judged accordingly.
Speaker 5: Venue.
Speaker 6: How may I help you checking in, Monsieur and Madame
Speaker 6: Fodor Caribbean. Here's your key and we will listen to
Speaker 6: you with your bags and Monsieur, I have it Beckuters
Speaker 6: for you.
Speaker 1: It arrived this morning. More instructions from Martin. I'm sure, darling.
Speaker 1: Why don't you go upstairs and start running that path.
Speaker 1: I'll check my messages and be done with business.
Speaker 5: For the night.
Speaker 7: Sounds splendid.
Speaker 5: We'll fight this way, Madame, Hello, Jean, welcome to Paris.
Speaker 8: That was a bit of a hairy situation you left
Speaker 8: back in East Germany, but I had no doubt you
Speaker 8: get Sebago out. Upon his debrief with the JA, Zabago
Speaker 8: revealed the photos of three men who entered France with
Speaker 8: fake passports to assassinate President Charles de Gaul for changing
Speaker 8: his position on Algeria and now supporting its independence. These
Speaker 8: men believe they are working for the oas but they
Speaker 8: are really being funded by the Soviets, who hope that
Speaker 8: the death of de Gaulle and the turmoil that would
Speaker 8: follow not only gives Communism a foothold in Algeria, but
Speaker 8: threaten the very existence of the NATO Alliance. We obviously
Speaker 8: can't allow that to happen. Your mission is to deliver
Speaker 8: the photos to our contact at the sdece. French intelligence
Speaker 8: has been warned of the threat. They should be able
Speaker 8: to act on the intel and prevent any assassination attempt.
Speaker 8: Rebecca will meet you at the Eiffel Tower at eighteen
Speaker 8: hundred to help coordinate the exchange. Thanks, Gene, I'll be
Speaker 8: in touch soon.
Speaker 4: Apolate a room four They play in moment.
Speaker 5: Hello, it's me.
Speaker 2: Oh, this can't be good news.
Speaker 1: Martin left even more assignments. Wants us to cover the
Speaker 1: Paris nightlife for the new edition. Even the Moulin Rouge
Speaker 1: thinks it will sell copies.
Speaker 5: He's not wrong.
Speaker 2: Sex sells, but this bath sure will feel lonely.
Speaker 1: Enjoy it, order room service, spoil yourself. I'll catch up
Speaker 1: as soon as I'm back.
Speaker 5: Are you sure you deserve arrest?
Speaker 2: After everything in Germany?
Speaker 1: I just want to get this done, so it's not
Speaker 1: hanging over my head. Don't wait up, I might be late, Okay,
Speaker 1: I love you. The real marvel of Paris, for many
Speaker 1: is the Eiffel Tower. If the Statue of Liberty is
Speaker 1: New York, if Big Ben is London, if the Kremlin
Speaker 1: is Moscow, then the Eiffel Tower is Paris. For two years,
Speaker 1: a French engineer worked to a wrecked this strange and
Speaker 1: ugly monument, which was designed to exalt the technical era
Speaker 1: that had begun to shine in the lamp of Edison
Speaker 1: and to stammer in the first phone call of Bell.
Speaker 1: Eiffel used five thousand sheets of paper, each nearly a
Speaker 1: yard square for his full scale plans of this enormous construction.
Speaker 1: It was inaugurated on June tenth, eighteen eighty nine, by Edward,
Speaker 1: the seventh Prince of Wales, and for years Parisians considered
Speaker 1: it fashionable to call it hideous and to compare it
Speaker 1: to a fifteen million pound giraffe whose head sort one
Speaker 1: thousand feet high. But gradually it became part of the
Speaker 1: Parisian landscape, and paperweights, ash trays and souvenirs spread its
Speaker 1: reputation around the.
Speaker 4: World from Asgeen. Sorry, I know you're never in photos,
Speaker 4: but you looked so sweet standing there like a tourist
Speaker 4: on holiday.
Speaker 1: Well, hello to you too, Rebecca. What do you say
Speaker 1: we hurry up and deliver these photo so we can
Speaker 1: get a little holiday in ourselves.
Speaker 4: Our contact from French intelligence should be waiting for us.
Speaker 7: Let me see.
Speaker 4: Yes, there that man across the park. That is our contact, Hugo.
Speaker 1: So what's the plan?
Speaker 4: Real simple, transfer the passports and go our separate ways.
Speaker 1: Great, maybe I'll make it back in time to surprise blaster.
Speaker 4: Bon soir, Rebecca, Hi, Hugo, Nice to see you again.
Speaker 4: This is my colleague Jeane.
Speaker 1: A pleasure. I think these are for.
Speaker 3: You, Ello, Jean, I can't thank you enough for delivering.
Speaker 7: These our pleasure. I hope they help.
Speaker 3: Yes, now we can put faces to the names of
Speaker 3: matamp provided and it confirms our identity.
Speaker 4: You know who they are.
Speaker 3: We tracked the names to a hotel on the right bank,
Speaker 3: but the assassins were tipped off and escaped before we
Speaker 3: could make the arrest. The problem is these men are
Speaker 3: former French military and have helped Bonzi inside.
Speaker 1: De Gale should leave the city immediately and go into
Speaker 1: protective custody.
Speaker 3: Goal is a stubborn of the world and refuses to
Speaker 3: do anything. There have already been thirty one assassination attempts
Speaker 3: on his life that have all failed, so now he
Speaker 3: seems to think he is on voneble.
Speaker 4: But if they're French military with help on the inside,
Speaker 4: that means they're dangerous and difficult to.
Speaker 3: Catch, exactly something the Goal does not understand and the
Speaker 3: reason why we need your help tracking the assassins our help.
Speaker 1: We just gave you the passports. That's all we were
Speaker 1: asked to do. I'm not qualified, Jeane.
Speaker 4: Now that's not true. You told me yourself. No one
Speaker 4: knows the city better and it would just be one night.
Speaker 4: All we have to do is help find them. A
Speaker 4: life literally might depend on it.
Speaker 6: Many In fact, why do I even argue, fine, what
Speaker 6: do we know about the men?
Speaker 3: They are all as assassins organization are mes secret if
Speaker 3: our write paramilitary terrorist organization intent on preventing a Aligerian independence.
Speaker 3: Now that we can confirm our intelligence is correct, their
Speaker 3: names are Jean Marie Bastian Theirie, a French Air Force
Speaker 3: lieutenant colonel and military air weaponry engineer. Pierre Andre Magaard,
Speaker 3: a twenty two year old Air Force des attire, and
Speaker 3: the oping brute of a Pienoir named George Woitin, who
Speaker 3: collected the ears of Algerian rebels he killed in a
Speaker 3: glass jar. Charming, he told others in Algeria his fondest
Speaker 3: wish was to add the Goal's ears to his collection.
Speaker 3: They are all angry at the Goal for changing his
Speaker 3: position on Algerian independence, calling him a tyrant and claiming
Speaker 3: his assassination justified.
Speaker 1: Look, they sound like some serious characters. Yes, I know
Speaker 1: the city, but I must remind you both I'm just
Speaker 1: a travel writer. You must have someone better suited for
Speaker 1: the job.
Speaker 3: We have the entire city looking for them, but with
Speaker 3: their contacts on the inside, we need all the outside
Speaker 3: help we can get.
Speaker 7: We'll do whatever we can.
Speaker 3: All I ask is please take a look at the
Speaker 3: hotel rooms they deserted. See if you can find anything
Speaker 3: in the evidence left behind. Martin said, you two are
Speaker 3: good at solving puzzles.
Speaker 1: We'll try our best.
Speaker 7: Lead the way.
Speaker 3: This is a room where the assassins have been staying.
Speaker 3: They used the large passports to books or rooms.
Speaker 1: Did they use the passports anywhere else? Any pattern to track.
Speaker 3: They used them to enter Germany by trains six days ago,
Speaker 3: but the trail ends here.
Speaker 4: What about contacts in the city, any places they might.
Speaker 3: Go too many? They are French and they have support,
Speaker 3: They could be anywhere.
Speaker 1: They clearly left in a hurry.
Speaker 3: It seems they took everything with them other than the
Speaker 3: few pieces of clothing you see.
Speaker 1: And numerous cigarette butts, heavy smokers it looks.
Speaker 4: Like, and drinkers.
Speaker 3: As I said Zeya French.
Speaker 1: Honestly, I could use a cigarette myself. You go mind
Speaker 1: If I use those matches unlike our friends, I will
Speaker 1: enjoy it on the balcony.
Speaker 3: Of course, I need to make it fun. Called take
Speaker 3: your time.
Speaker 4: I'll join you.
Speaker 7: Jean, What was that about?
Speaker 4: You don't smoke?
Speaker 1: See this symbol on the matchbook? I recognize it looks
Speaker 1: like a music note it is, and I know a
Speaker 1: club it came from. And if our guys went there,
Speaker 1: I know who would have seen them.
Speaker 4: Well that's great.
Speaker 7: Why not tell Hugo.
Speaker 1: Because he said it himself. There's someone on the inside
Speaker 1: tipping them off, maybe even him. Yes, but look, if
Speaker 1: my hunch is right and we get some info, we
Speaker 1: can always loop him in. But better safe than sorry.
Speaker 4: Right, well, look who's getting good at us?
Speaker 1: Reluctantly, so where are we heading to? The best jazz
Speaker 1: club in Paris. Paris is one city where no one
Speaker 1: has ever had to ask what do you do at night? Fortunately,
Speaker 1: a considerable proportion of the population of Paris is concerned
Speaker 1: with providing distraction in the hours of darkness. Most of
Speaker 1: it legal. All you have to do is sally forth
Speaker 1: and let nature take its course. But if it's cutting
Speaker 1: edge music you seek, there is no better place than
Speaker 1: the Club Saint Jermon. Every night visiting an expatriate American
Speaker 1: jazz musicians like Sidney Baschet, Charlie Parker, Bud Powell, James
Speaker 1: Moody and Miles Davis hit the stage of the small,
Speaker 1: smoke filled venue, showering the audience with the sounds of
Speaker 1: improvisational artistry.
Speaker 7: As much as I love live jazz.
Speaker 4: When is your contact going to meet us?
Speaker 1: We are on a bit of a clock. He'll be
Speaker 1: here in a minute. Amazing, right, yeah, still got it
Speaker 1: here he comes, great set, Kenny.
Speaker 7: It's the drummer, mean Jean.
Speaker 3: It's been a long time, my.
Speaker 1: Man, Kenny. Please meet my colleague Rebecca. Rebecca the great
Speaker 1: Kenny Clark.
Speaker 3: It's a pleasure, mademoiselle.
Speaker 7: You really were fantastic.
Speaker 1: He's the best, always has been. Kenny used to keep
Speaker 1: us entertained during the war when we were part of
Speaker 1: the Special Services. He had a nasty habit of going
Speaker 1: a wall whenever there was a good gig nearby.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, Jane.
Speaker 3: He would always helped talk me out of.
Speaker 1: Trouble my patriotic duty. Losing a drummer like you would
Speaker 1: have been a hit to morale and it would have
Speaker 1: been a damn shame to see you playing tin cans
Speaker 1: in the brig.
Speaker 4: I've actually seen you play before. Oh yeah, the Newport
Speaker 4: Jazz Festival in fIF Thank you. And I loved your
Speaker 4: work with Miles Davis on Birth of the Cool.
Speaker 3: She knows her jazz, Jean.
Speaker 1: She'll keep impressing you. Don't you worry. But in truth,
Speaker 1: we aren't just here for the music, Kenny. We need your.
Speaker 3: Help, anything you need, Jean. You know that what's going on.
Speaker 1: We're looking for three French guys that came in recently,
Speaker 1: probably a few nights ago.
Speaker 4: Here are their photos. Do you recognize them?
Speaker 3: Hell, yeah, I do. I can survey the whole crowd
Speaker 3: from behind my kit. They were sitting off to the
Speaker 3: side over there, drinking heavy, looking for trouble.
Speaker 1: That type they are. They're Organizacion Almescret Assassins wanted by
Speaker 1: the police.
Speaker 3: That group has been terrorizing this city for months with
Speaker 3: their cafe wars. Who would blow up in some people
Speaker 3: just sitting down to have a coffee.
Speaker 1: And we think they're planning something bigger.
Speaker 3: Shit, And these sons of bitches are staying at my hotel.
Speaker 3: I got a warm daisy. They might be trying to
Speaker 3: blow it up too.
Speaker 1: Don't worry, these aren't bombers. But you're sure they're staying
Speaker 1: at your hotel?
Speaker 3: They were. I saw him stumble in after the last set.
Speaker 3: I think they asked the bartender for a local place
Speaker 3: to stay.
Speaker 7: It all lines up.
Speaker 3: What's the Hotel La Louisianne, just down the street.
Speaker 7: Let's go Geene.
Speaker 1: Thanks Kenny, that's all we needed. Hell, that's everything we needed.
Speaker 1: I'm just sorry we'll have to miss your next set.
Speaker 3: Glad to help, But next time you're in Pirie, we
Speaker 3: grab a drink and you tell me how this story ends.
Speaker 1: You have a deal.
Speaker 7: Thanks so much.
Speaker 1: Hotel La Louisiane is a Parisian hotel located in the
Speaker 1: heart of Saint German de Prey, one of the most
Speaker 1: artistic neighborhoods in the city. You can find the hotel
Speaker 1: at the intersection of Rue de Bussi, where it has
Speaker 1: a side entrance and Rue Descent, with its main entrance
Speaker 1: in the sixth arrondisement. It's well known as a home
Speaker 1: in Paris for many of the world's famous jazz musicians.
Speaker 1: Oscar Peterson, Miles Davis, Bud Powell, Max Roach, Dizzy Gillespie,
Speaker 1: Art Blakey, Billie Holliday, Lester Young, and Charlie Parker all
Speaker 1: were guests. In fact, Jean Paul Satre set up Juliette
Speaker 1: Greco in Room ten and moved to Room nineteen, which
Speaker 1: he kept in his name until nineteen fifty. Juliette Greco
Speaker 1: and Miles Davis later met in the hotel, which became
Speaker 1: the setting of their infamous love story. It also drew
Speaker 1: in writers such as Ernest Hemingway, Antoine de st Experis,
Speaker 1: Henry Miller, Cyril Connolly, Peter Berling, and Albertine Sarazan, all
Speaker 1: who called La Louisiana home at one point or another.
Speaker 1: How may I help you?
Speaker 9: Monsieur.
Speaker 1: Hello, We're looking for three men who I believe are
Speaker 1: staying here.
Speaker 7: These are their photos.
Speaker 6: Yes, I knows his men, but unfortunately they are not
Speaker 6: currently in zeroom.
Speaker 4: Do you know where they are when they'll be back?
Speaker 6: I don't, but I'm also not permitted to give out
Speaker 6: information on guests.
Speaker 1: Look, these men are members of the terrorist organization behind
Speaker 1: the Cafe Wars that have been destroying this city. We
Speaker 1: understand your policy, but this could help prevent another attack.
Speaker 1: And who are you?
Speaker 4: You've seen James Bond, right, he's the real thing.
Speaker 6: M This does feel like a movie and you do
Speaker 6: look like a bomb girl. All right, I'll show you
Speaker 6: the rooms so we can catch these bastards.
Speaker 9: You are free to look around.
Speaker 1: I'll be back downstairs to keep a lookout in case
Speaker 1: you need me.
Speaker 4: Mercy.
Speaker 1: They definitely haven't checked out yet. We should tell Hugo.
Speaker 7: Hmm, Jeane, look at this? What is it with a briefcase?
Speaker 4: It has a false bottom.
Speaker 3: I just got.
Speaker 4: A jimmy it an. I think it's papers.
Speaker 1: No, no, no, they're maps. See look it's maps of
Speaker 1: the same section outside Paris, only with different locations marked
Speaker 1: and different routes. The routes are between Elise Palace and
Speaker 1: the airport.
Speaker 4: Gelise Palace is where de Gaul has his cabinet meetings,
Speaker 4: and he always goes straight to the airport after.
Speaker 1: They must be targeting his two primary routes to the airport.
Speaker 4: But why too, because he would never let the chosen
Speaker 4: route be known until he was underway for security reasons.
Speaker 1: So they must have someone on the inside tipping them
Speaker 1: off when he leaves, and they position their scouts here
Speaker 1: and here so they can phone in the chosen path
Speaker 1: and then easily prepare an ambush at this intersection. See
Speaker 1: at Petit Timon. As a military man, it's the perfect
Speaker 1: position for an ambush.
Speaker 4: Degaull's cabinet meeting should be finishing any minute.
Speaker 1: Let's call Hugo and get to Petit Clement before it's
Speaker 1: too late.
Speaker 2: M D.
Speaker 5: This is Max. The dogget has left the palace. Make
Speaker 5: sure the girls are in position.
Speaker 9: We too, sweet, Hello, this is d d A.
Speaker 3: Convoys en roots should be arriving at the junction in
Speaker 3: any minute.
Speaker 9: Confirm direction.
Speaker 5: We here they come.
Speaker 9: They took lute a repeat ruth as they go.
Speaker 1: They're on the way to Petty lament. Suck out of
Speaker 1: the way.
Speaker 3: If you're right, scenes will be at Petite Clamar and
Speaker 3: only a few minutes.
Speaker 1: We have to get there first and divert the convoy
Speaker 1: from the ambush spot. It's just a couple of blocks away.
Speaker 1: Should go step on it. There it is ahead we
Speaker 1: and that's the go.
Speaker 9: Sit three on.
Speaker 1: Approaching the intersection. You see that man waving that newspaper.
Speaker 4: He must be signaling the ambush. We have to warn
Speaker 4: them along the horn. Flash your lights.
Speaker 1: Keep pressing, Hugo, it's working. You got their attention.
Speaker 4: I think they see the gunman.
Speaker 7: I hope it's not too late.
Speaker 1: Take Okay, they made it through turn luck before we're next.
Speaker 9: Let's get out of here.
Speaker 3: The police should be right behind us.
Speaker 1: Man Lucky, sure, kim blow that horn.
Speaker 4: That sack solo took longer than it did to solve
Speaker 4: our case.
Speaker 3: Hello, my American friends, I am back with news and drinks.
Speaker 3: Go to see it's a French government.
Speaker 4: Thanks, Hugo, take a seat.
Speaker 1: What did you learn? How's the goal?
Speaker 3: The goal and his wife made it safely to Villacouble
Speaker 3: air base. Miraculously no one was injured.
Speaker 4: Oh thank god.
Speaker 3: They found one hundred and eighty seven sharecasings at the
Speaker 3: crime scene, and there were fourteen bullet holes in his
Speaker 3: citry on the gal said Citi when he exited the car.
Speaker 1: It means this time it was close.
Speaker 4: That's an understatement. Do you think he'll start taking these
Speaker 4: threats more seriously?
Speaker 3: Oh, very doubtful.
Speaker 1: And the assassins, did you catch them?
Speaker 3: We've already arrested the couple. It won't be long before
Speaker 3: we've captured the arrest So I think it's time we
Speaker 3: celebrate Sante.
Speaker 1: Two close calls and closer friends.
Speaker 4: Cheers.
Speaker 2: You're back late again, Darling.
Speaker 1: You're up. I thought you'd be asleep. I was trying
Speaker 1: not to wake you.
Speaker 10: Where have you been?
Speaker 1: Oh? You know the French transportation system. The metro was
Speaker 1: down and we had a difficult time getting back from Montmart.
Speaker 1: Walked most of the way.
Speaker 7: Don't lie to meet Jean.
Speaker 1: What do you mean?
Speaker 2: I know you weren't in Monmart.
Speaker 1: Really?
Speaker 10: How Because I'm not stupid, Geane, but I am bored.
Speaker 10: So instead of just sitting in the hotel room all
Speaker 10: night like I have been the last few cities, I
Speaker 10: decided to meet Lily.
Speaker 2: For a drink.
Speaker 1: I'm so sorry. I wanted to meet you for dinner,
Speaker 1: but but.
Speaker 10: Instead Lily said she saw you earlier with a young
Speaker 10: girl at club Saint Janmain.
Speaker 1: I can explain Rebecca and I And.
Speaker 10: Then Lily said she followed you to a hotel after.
Speaker 1: Now, wait, this is completely insane.
Speaker 10: Are you cheating on me with Rebecca?
Speaker 9: What?
Speaker 1: No, of course not, I would never. I love you,
Speaker 1: It's not like that.
Speaker 10: I swear something has been going on, Jean, and I
Speaker 10: want the truth. You show up bruised and better than Rome,
Speaker 10: you disappear for a night in Berlin, and now I
Speaker 10: catch you lying.
Speaker 9: To me in Paris.
Speaker 1: There are very reasonable explanations for all of those things.
Speaker 10: I know you better than I know myself. Something is
Speaker 10: going on, and it's high time you tell me the truth.
Speaker 10: I will ask you one more time. Are you having
Speaker 10: an affair with Rebecca?
Speaker 1: No? I promise that's not it, Jean. I promise it's
Speaker 1: nothing that bad. Or maybe I don't know, maybe it's worse.
Speaker 1: But I promise you I am not having an affair.
Speaker 10: Then what is it?
Speaker 1: I'm sorry. I thought I was protecting you by not
Speaker 1: telling you. Maybe I was scared I might lose you,
Speaker 1: no matter what it was I realize now I was wrong.
Speaker 1: You deserve to know everything and make your own choice.
Speaker 10: Choice about what? What are you talking about? What on
Speaker 10: earth is going on?
Speaker 1: Okay? Here it is? Martin is more than just our publisher.
Speaker 1: He also works for the CIA, and he asked me
Speaker 1: to help them on some urgent and important business and
Speaker 1: I agreed. And then well things got complicated.
Speaker 10: So you help him in exchange for what him helping
Speaker 10: us with the business. Oh, I knew this was too
Speaker 10: good to be true.
Speaker 1: It's more complicated than that.
Speaker 10: No, it isn't. What's fabian? A part of this is Rebecca.
Speaker 10: I don't want you risking your life so we can
Speaker 10: get what worldwide distribution and stay at some ritzy hotels.
Speaker 10: It's not worth it. You can tell Martin we're out,
Speaker 10: which is exactly what I would have said if you
Speaker 10: had told me in the beginning, like you should have.
Speaker 1: I know, maybe that's why I didn't. But there's more
Speaker 1: than that.
Speaker 9: What is it?
Speaker 1: What do they have on you? That's not me? It's
Speaker 1: my father here? Look at this?
Speaker 7: Whose passport is this?
Speaker 2: Wait?
Speaker 3: This is your father?
Speaker 1: But he's dead? So why it turns out he might
Speaker 1: still be alive? And the Soviets might have him. Now,
Speaker 1: after some digging, I finally might know where to find him. Oh,
Speaker 1: I see. I know it sounds crazy, but what I'm
Speaker 1: doing with Martin might help save my father. It might
Speaker 1: save a lot of people. In fact, I think we've
Speaker 1: saved a lot of people already. The real truth is
Speaker 1: this is more important than just me. But nothing is
Speaker 1: more important to me.
Speaker 9: And you.
Speaker 2: Then never lie to me again. I won't.
Speaker 7: Ever good.
Speaker 2: Now, sit down and tell me everything starting from the beginning.
Speaker 2: I'm ready to help.
