0:00:09.360 --> 0:00:14.680
<v Speaker 2>This podcast is based on the true story of explorer, inventor, visionary,

0:00:14.960 --> 0:00:20.160
<v Speaker 2>and science pioneer Tom Slick. Some of the story elements, names,

0:00:20.400 --> 0:00:25.160
<v Speaker 2>and characters have been altered for dramatic purposes. Consider using

0:00:25.280 --> 0:00:29.800

<v Speaker 2>soundscape to tell our story.

0:00:48.840 --> 0:00:51.400

0:00:51.479 --> 0:00:55.600
<v Speaker 3>back like a civilized human. Blair, It's live.

0:00:56.440 --> 0:00:59.600
<v Speaker 4>I know you only text, but this is I found

0:00:59.640 --> 0:01:02.040
<v Speaker 4>a box of Grandad's tapes like the one you found

0:01:02.040 --> 0:01:06.160
<v Speaker 4>at the institute. There could be more information in here

0:01:06.200 --> 0:01:08.560
<v Speaker 4>about the expedition in the Himalays. I don't know.

0:01:09.160 --> 0:01:10.039
<v Speaker 3>Just call me back up.

0:01:11.760 --> 0:01:15.760
<v Speaker 1>There's only two bottles of cheap red everything else in

0:01:15.760 --> 0:01:16.440
<v Speaker 1>the wine, Celery.

0:01:16.440 --> 0:01:17.399
<v Speaker 3>If you boxed up.

0:01:18.880 --> 0:01:19.360
<v Speaker 5>I'm sorry.

0:01:19.400 --> 0:01:21.679
<v Speaker 4>I haven't been around to help more with the packing.

0:01:22.560 --> 0:01:25.880
<v Speaker 1>Well, when the event is over tomorrow and I'll remind

0:01:25.959 --> 0:01:31.119
<v Speaker 1>you that you said that, and.

0:01:31.080 --> 0:01:33.480
<v Speaker 4>I'll just blame the shit wine for messing with my head.

0:01:36.959 --> 0:01:40.120
<v Speaker 5>Oh it's bad, It's really bad.

0:01:41.160 --> 0:01:43.479
<v Speaker 1>So did you find the rest of the machine gun

0:01:43.600 --> 0:01:45.199
<v Speaker 1>Kelly stuff on one of those tapes?

0:01:45.480 --> 0:01:46.600
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, it's right here.

0:01:48.560 --> 0:01:51.040
<v Speaker 6>My first wriddle Monster hunt Well.

0:01:51.080 --> 0:01:54.960
<v Speaker 3>I was tracking down that gangster machine gun Kelly. He

0:01:55.040 --> 0:01:57.520
<v Speaker 3>never told you any of this, not a word.

0:02:00.440 --> 0:02:02.680
<v Speaker 7>Because when the shock of being face to face with

0:02:02.800 --> 0:02:06.120
<v Speaker 7>machine gun Kelly had worn off, the shame of letting

0:02:06.160 --> 0:02:12.520
<v Speaker 7>him just take my stepfather persisted and fueled what came next.

0:02:13.840 --> 0:02:16.160
<v Speaker 7>I called the police first, but when they heard it

0:02:16.200 --> 0:02:19.639
<v Speaker 7>was Charles Erschel who was kidnapped, the call went straight

0:02:19.680 --> 0:02:20.240
<v Speaker 7>to the top.

0:02:21.400 --> 0:02:22.880
<v Speaker 1>We've been on Kelly's trail for.

0:02:22.840 --> 0:02:25.760
<v Speaker 7>The last ten months, to the director of the FBI,

0:02:26.560 --> 0:02:28.040
<v Speaker 7>Jay Edgar Hoover.

0:02:28.400 --> 0:02:29.200
<v Speaker 1>They would quiet for.

0:02:29.120 --> 0:02:30.840
<v Speaker 6>A while, but now I know why.

0:02:31.440 --> 0:02:34.120
<v Speaker 3>Your father's estate was a bigger score than any banking

0:02:34.160 --> 0:02:34.600
<v Speaker 3>could wrong.

0:02:36.680 --> 0:02:39.480
<v Speaker 7>After that call, the FED showed up at our door.

0:02:40.120 --> 0:02:42.800
<v Speaker 7>At the time, there's no way to trace Kelly, so

0:02:42.840 --> 0:02:44.480
<v Speaker 7>we just had to wait for contact.

0:02:47.240 --> 0:02:48.320
<v Speaker 6>God it was grueling.

0:02:49.360 --> 0:02:53.400
<v Speaker 7>I checked the mail every fifteen minutes. Then four days,

0:02:53.440 --> 0:02:59.919
<v Speaker 7>three hours and seven minutes after the abduction, a ransom note.

0:03:00.160 --> 0:03:03.560
<v Speaker 8>Oh thank God, read it, Tom, go on, don't tamper

0:03:03.639 --> 0:03:04.720
<v Speaker 8>with the evidence, son.

0:03:04.639 --> 0:03:07.280
<v Speaker 5>Agent Roper. What does it say about.

0:03:07.080 --> 0:03:11.280
<v Speaker 9>Charles Kelly's demanding two hundred thousand for his release?

0:03:11.480 --> 0:03:11.679
<v Speaker 5>What?

0:03:12.240 --> 0:03:12.800
<v Speaker 3>How is he?

0:03:13.600 --> 0:03:14.799
<v Speaker 10>What does Kelly say about that?

0:03:15.040 --> 0:03:15.280
<v Speaker 6>Look?

0:03:15.560 --> 0:03:17.280
<v Speaker 11>Kelly let him write something at the end.

0:03:18.680 --> 0:03:19.320
<v Speaker 5>What does it say?

0:03:19.480 --> 0:03:24.240
<v Speaker 9>All right, says Bernice. Please pay Kelly as quickly as

0:03:24.280 --> 0:03:27.160
<v Speaker 9>you can. I am so low. The only thing that

0:03:27.280 --> 0:03:29.520
<v Speaker 9>keeps me high above the clouds of despair are the

0:03:29.560 --> 0:03:33.120
<v Speaker 9>thoughts of you and God. What then he wrote some

0:03:33.520 --> 0:03:37.040
<v Speaker 9>numbers nine forty five and five forty five might be

0:03:37.080 --> 0:03:37.840
<v Speaker 9>Bible verses.

0:03:38.280 --> 0:03:39.560
<v Speaker 2>Charles isn't any verses.

0:03:40.360 --> 0:03:42.760
<v Speaker 9>Kelly must have given him a Bible makes sense in

0:03:42.800 --> 0:03:43.480
<v Speaker 9>this situation.

0:03:43.720 --> 0:03:48.560
<v Speaker 7>Oh, FBI agents are no at alls. It's part of

0:03:48.600 --> 0:03:53.600
<v Speaker 7>their job description. But they didn't know my stepfather. He

0:03:53.640 --> 0:03:57.720
<v Speaker 7>wrote about despair in that note. That word wasn't a

0:03:57.760 --> 0:04:01.600
<v Speaker 7>part of his vocabulary. He didn't do feelings. Sure a

0:04:01.680 --> 0:04:03.680
<v Speaker 7>fear can do a lot of things to a person,

0:04:04.080 --> 0:04:06.400
<v Speaker 7>but I won't give you a full blown the bottomy.

0:04:06.840 --> 0:04:11.480
<v Speaker 12>I wasn't a note, it was a code.

0:04:12.440 --> 0:04:15.000
<v Speaker 7>The only thing that keeps me high above the clouds

0:04:15.040 --> 0:04:20.000
<v Speaker 7>of despair are my family and God high above the clouds.

0:04:20.160 --> 0:04:22.120
<v Speaker 5>Tom, that doesn't sound like Charles.

0:04:23.360 --> 0:04:26.600
<v Speaker 7>Nine and five forty five aren't Bible versus.

0:04:26.800 --> 0:04:30.359
<v Speaker 3>They're air routes. What come on, think about it, Kelly.

0:04:30.400 --> 0:04:32.520
<v Speaker 6>You's not gonna hide out in some city with a captive.

0:04:33.000 --> 0:04:35.000
<v Speaker 6>He's in a deserted location, and.

0:04:35.000 --> 0:04:38.039
<v Speaker 3>The only thing you hear in the middle of nowhere.

0:04:37.880 --> 0:04:42.360
<v Speaker 6>High above the clouds, is a plane flying over son Look.

0:04:42.800 --> 0:04:44.920
<v Speaker 3>I'm telling you they're under an air route.

0:04:44.960 --> 0:04:47.680
<v Speaker 5>Sir, huh, he's onto something.

0:04:47.720 --> 0:04:54.000
<v Speaker 9>Agent Ropert, let me make a call. All right, we

0:04:54.040 --> 0:04:56.040
<v Speaker 9>have a lead. I need you guys to track airport.

0:04:56.160 --> 0:04:59.839
<v Speaker 7>The FBI used my intel to pinpoint the Shannon Ranch

0:04:59.839 --> 0:05:05.479
<v Speaker 7>and Paradise, Texas at the front. A day later they

0:05:05.560 --> 0:05:08.200
<v Speaker 7>raided it. They let me tag along.

0:05:08.279 --> 0:05:11.280
<v Speaker 3>To stay down on three two.

0:05:11.480 --> 0:05:13.840
<v Speaker 7>I was there when they kicked the door in the

0:05:13.920 --> 0:05:17.240
<v Speaker 7>eyes and with more than twenty guns aimed at machine gun,

0:05:17.360 --> 0:05:26.200
<v Speaker 7>Kelly at SOB shoutedoop and lucky for him, the government

0:05:26.279 --> 0:05:29.720
<v Speaker 7>men didn't shoot. Kelly wasn't worth the bullet. They found

0:05:29.760 --> 0:05:34.280
<v Speaker 7>my stepfather caged up out back, alive and just rare,

0:05:34.360 --> 0:05:37.240
<v Speaker 7>and to testify against Kelly in a federal trial that

0:05:37.279 --> 0:05:41.919
<v Speaker 7>would be so notorious they allowed film cameras in the courtroom.

0:05:42.320 --> 0:05:45.960
<v Speaker 7>Kelly and his wife were sentenced to a lifetime behind bars,

0:05:46.320 --> 0:05:49.240
<v Speaker 7>and the trial went on to solidify kidnapping as a

0:05:49.279 --> 0:05:53.840
<v Speaker 7>federal crime. Oh And Jay Edgar Hoover's FBI well, they

0:05:53.880 --> 0:05:57.560
<v Speaker 7>took all the credit for solving the case, but news

0:05:57.560 --> 0:05:59.360
<v Speaker 7>of my involvement got around.

0:06:03.720 --> 0:06:07.839
<v Speaker 8>Tommy Dulles, Oh, I heard you're trying your hand at heroics.

0:06:08.120 --> 0:06:08.720
<v Speaker 12>Had a boy.

0:06:09.000 --> 0:06:12.159
<v Speaker 7>I'm a Navy man now ship out to Santiago, Chili

0:06:12.200 --> 0:06:13.600
<v Speaker 7>on my birthday next week.

0:06:13.880 --> 0:06:16.839
<v Speaker 13>No, I was talking about machine gun Kelly after our

0:06:16.920 --> 0:06:19.279
<v Speaker 13>little hunt for Nessie. I thought you gave up on

0:06:19.360 --> 0:06:22.479
<v Speaker 13>tracking down monsters, but you bagged a biggie with that one.

0:06:23.080 --> 0:06:25.960
<v Speaker 13>Any interest in a more dangerous hunt?

0:06:26.400 --> 0:06:27.640
<v Speaker 3>Well, what do you have in mind?

0:06:34.400 --> 0:06:39.520
<v Speaker 14>Chapter two? This is the mostly true tale of Tom Slick,

0:06:40.360 --> 0:06:41.200
<v Speaker 14>mystery hunter.

0:06:57.000 --> 0:06:58.880
<v Speaker 4>I want to google something before we turn the tape over.

0:06:59.240 --> 0:07:01.480
<v Speaker 1>No I did such good friends with Dallas.

0:07:01.640 --> 0:07:02.400
<v Speaker 5>He always said he was.

0:07:03.000 --> 0:07:05.719
<v Speaker 4>When Dulles reached out to Granddad, he was involved in

0:07:05.760 --> 0:07:09.279
<v Speaker 4>the oss, so he Dulles would have known if Granddad

0:07:09.360 --> 0:07:11.480
<v Speaker 4>was stationed in Chile. I mean I remember him ignoring

0:07:11.560 --> 0:07:16.080
<v Speaker 4>Dallas's call and at the time South America was targeted

0:07:16.160 --> 0:07:19.680
<v Speaker 4>by the Nazis. Really yeah, I just pulled up declassified

0:07:19.720 --> 0:07:22.679
<v Speaker 4>files released in twenty seventeen. They're all about a Nazi

0:07:22.800 --> 0:07:24.840
<v Speaker 4>spir ring headquartered in Chile.

0:07:25.040 --> 0:07:27.760
<v Speaker 1>Nazi spiring headquartered in Chili and Dad was there.

0:07:28.240 --> 0:07:28.560
<v Speaker 5>Yep.

0:07:29.080 --> 0:07:32.960
<v Speaker 4>So what so you're saying Dulls called Granddad because he

0:07:33.040 --> 0:07:35.160
<v Speaker 4>needed regional asset.

0:07:36.120 --> 0:07:37.120
<v Speaker 6>That's my title.

0:07:37.360 --> 0:07:40.200
<v Speaker 8>The OSS already approved it, Dullas.

0:07:40.720 --> 0:07:43.920
<v Speaker 3>What about something like Nazi Hunter? You know that get

0:07:44.000 --> 0:07:44.560
<v Speaker 3>you going?

0:07:44.960 --> 0:07:47.000
<v Speaker 8>Monster Slayer was pitched in the room.

0:07:47.160 --> 0:07:50.080
<v Speaker 11>Believe it or not, Tommy, you know I hate it

0:07:50.120 --> 0:07:53.840
<v Speaker 11>when you call me Tommy Allan, Okay, so what are

<v Speaker 3>In my ear. I'm recording all of this. Wow Ah.

0:08:13.640 --> 0:08:18.080
<v Speaker 8>I'm not gonna expose all the OSS secrets, Tommy, but

0:08:18.160 --> 0:08:19.360
<v Speaker 8>I am gonna let you play.

0:08:19.120 --> 0:08:19.600

<v Speaker 8>that's not why we're here, Dulles. Chilean red wine is

0:08:37.440 --> 0:08:39.920
<v Speaker 8>rich and complicated, but the men sitting over there by

0:08:39.960 --> 0:08:41.080
<v Speaker 8>the dance floor don't look.

0:08:42.320 --> 0:08:50.280

<v Speaker 8>Yeah, okay, she's gonna lead you to the dance floor

0:08:53.360 --> 0:08:56.280
<v Speaker 8>right past our target observed, But do not make eye contact,

0:08:56.360 --> 0:09:00.760
<v Speaker 8>Just stare at her racks.

0:09:01.120 --> 0:09:03.440
<v Speaker 3>All Come on, follow me.

0:09:03.880 --> 0:09:05.719
<v Speaker 13>I like to drink red wine, not wear it.

<v Speaker 3>So you've been clocking the Nazis.

0:09:35.800 --> 0:09:39.439
<v Speaker 5>Too since nineteen thirty three when they shut up here.

0:09:40.120 --> 0:09:40.640

<v Speaker 5>If they hit it, they win the war. Wow, and

0:09:48.040 --> 0:09:51.160
<v Speaker 5>they're close. You see that one guy with the cap on,

0:09:54.440 --> 0:09:56.000

<v Speaker 5>Okay, so no, thank you Jesus.

0:10:52.040 --> 0:10:54.440
<v Speaker 1>I would have cost me a lot in therapy bills.

0:10:57.559 --> 0:11:01.600
<v Speaker 7>A pisco sour pleads with, here's one Merchino cherry.

0:11:01.800 --> 0:11:02.839

<v Speaker 3>Don't suck face with a swallow? She suck my face?

0:11:09.840 --> 0:11:10.520
<v Speaker 3>How was it?

0:11:10.640 --> 0:11:10.960
<v Speaker 4>Wait?

0:11:11.280 --> 0:11:12.280
<v Speaker 1>She's one of you guys.

0:11:12.760 --> 0:11:15.360
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, she's one of mine, but she can't stand me.

0:11:15.400 --> 0:11:16.240
<v Speaker 3>So wait a second.

0:11:16.240 --> 0:11:16.960
<v Speaker 6>I was a ploy?

0:11:17.679 --> 0:11:19.040
<v Speaker 3>Does I'm the Nazi hunter?

0:11:19.480 --> 0:11:20.400
<v Speaker 10>Biscos sour?

0:11:21.640 --> 0:11:23.320
<v Speaker 6>Oh come on? What was that?

0:11:23.800 --> 0:11:29.199
<v Speaker 3>Hey, jackass? Clean this up? You have a napkin? What

0:11:29.920 --> 0:11:34.360
<v Speaker 3>can lose us? Oh? Yeah, I will use this.

0:11:34.840 --> 0:11:35.760
<v Speaker 8>Do you have club soda?

0:11:35.840 --> 0:11:39.040
<v Speaker 3>Is that the word in your language? Dulls? It's a

0:11:39.120 --> 0:11:44.920
<v Speaker 3>map the napkin. Wait, I'm in charge, so I can

0:11:44.960 --> 0:11:48.040
<v Speaker 3>see it's a map. Oh the target?

0:11:49.360 --> 0:11:49.640
<v Speaker 6>Shit?

0:11:50.320 --> 0:11:51.120
<v Speaker 3>What target?

0:11:51.559 --> 0:11:52.400
<v Speaker 1>What is he talkings?

0:11:52.400 --> 0:11:55.920
<v Speaker 4>Tam got caught, it's unwound, try and fix it.

0:11:56.240 --> 0:11:58.600
<v Speaker 1>Do you think the target is the American embassy or

0:11:58.640 --> 0:11:59.400
<v Speaker 1>maybe the US.

0:11:59.360 --> 0:12:02.560
<v Speaker 4>Troops the Nazis were after something that would end the war.

0:12:02.840 --> 0:12:05.280
<v Speaker 5>Oh so it's got to be a biggie huge.

0:12:05.200 --> 0:12:09.280
<v Speaker 4>But what what treasure did South America have that Hitler wanted?

0:12:11.120 --> 0:12:12.319
<v Speaker 2>Okay, yeah, it's working.

0:12:13.720 --> 0:12:16.079
<v Speaker 3>The Panama Canal, that's the target.

0:12:25.280 --> 0:12:28.560
<v Speaker 7>Of course, it makes perfect sense that Hitler's targeting the

0:12:28.600 --> 0:12:31.480
<v Speaker 7>Panama Canal. It's where we shuttle all our troops and

0:12:31.520 --> 0:12:34.079
<v Speaker 7>supplies from the Atlantic to the Pacific.

0:12:35.040 --> 0:12:35.760
<v Speaker 3>Where is she?

0:12:36.280 --> 0:12:39.280
<v Speaker 8>I missed a knight of sleep traveling from Chile to Columbia.

0:12:39.320 --> 0:12:41.280
<v Speaker 8>The least she could do is be on.

0:12:41.320 --> 0:12:44.240
<v Speaker 5>Time, slick shit? You trusted me?

0:12:44.520 --> 0:12:44.800
<v Speaker 6>Yeah?

0:12:44.840 --> 0:12:47.280
<v Speaker 3>Where did you come from there? Your hijacking?

0:12:47.520 --> 0:12:50.200
<v Speaker 8>Look, don let me clear the air. I don't know

0:12:50.679 --> 0:12:53.640
<v Speaker 8>why we can't be friends. I mean, you seem pretty

0:12:53.679 --> 0:12:54.720
<v Speaker 8>close to Tommy here.

0:12:54.800 --> 0:12:57.960
<v Speaker 5>Who's right to have me keel in nineteen thirty eight, Alan.

0:12:58.320 --> 0:13:01.000
<v Speaker 3>And you have never left. Let me live it down.

0:13:01.080 --> 0:13:02.480
<v Speaker 3>Where's the plane.

0:13:02.240 --> 0:13:03.319
<v Speaker 5>Over there refueling?

0:13:03.440 --> 0:13:04.080
<v Speaker 6>That's close?

0:13:04.480 --> 0:13:07.040
<v Speaker 3>Too close? Do they have eyes on us?

0:13:07.280 --> 0:13:11.240
<v Speaker 5>They can't see you. They're in the hangar with the engineers.

0:13:11.440 --> 0:13:12.440
<v Speaker 5>It's just the two of them.

0:13:12.520 --> 0:13:16.760
<v Speaker 10>Heines and my paramour Wielburd you're paramore I didn't know.

0:13:17.000 --> 0:13:18.920
<v Speaker 3>How else do you think she gets her secrets?

0:13:19.120 --> 0:13:22.440
<v Speaker 10>Wilbur's in love with Hines, and I'm just a beard here. Okay,

0:13:22.720 --> 0:13:25.360
<v Speaker 10>that's why he didn't blink when I kissed you. Oh

0:13:25.400 --> 0:13:27.559
<v Speaker 10>but yes, that's how I get my secrets.

0:13:28.200 --> 0:13:28.480
<v Speaker 3>Okay.

0:13:28.520 --> 0:13:30.480
<v Speaker 7>So these two lovebirds are going to take down the

0:13:30.520 --> 0:13:31.439
<v Speaker 7>Panama Canal.

0:13:32.240 --> 0:13:35.760
<v Speaker 10>Latin America has been the Nazi's last priority, but when

0:13:35.800 --> 0:13:38.840
<v Speaker 10>he realized how important the canal was to the US

0:13:38.840 --> 0:13:40.760
<v Speaker 10>and Britain, he has a plan.

0:13:40.800 --> 0:13:41.560
<v Speaker 5>To blow it up.

0:13:41.760 --> 0:13:43.160
<v Speaker 3>Okay, yeah, I knew that.

0:13:43.400 --> 0:13:46.520
<v Speaker 10>Heines is an expert pilot, so as soon as he

0:13:46.600 --> 0:13:48.839
<v Speaker 10>was inductrinated, he was sent here.

0:13:48.920 --> 0:13:50.600
<v Speaker 3>So they've got an aerial bomb.

0:13:50.840 --> 0:13:53.760
<v Speaker 10>No, they've got three bombs. That's what they're finishing up

0:13:53.760 --> 0:13:55.240
<v Speaker 10>in that bunker with the engineers.

0:13:55.679 --> 0:13:58.079
<v Speaker 5>And there's a doodle Bog attached to the plane.

0:13:58.200 --> 0:14:01.520
<v Speaker 3>Such an adorable name for such a vicious assassin. A

0:14:01.640 --> 0:14:03.120
<v Speaker 3>torpedo with wings.

0:14:03.240 --> 0:14:05.600
<v Speaker 8>You can leave a hole in the earth twenty to

0:14:05.600 --> 0:14:06.680
<v Speaker 8>thirty meters wide.

0:14:06.840 --> 0:14:08.800
<v Speaker 10>They'll be using the doodle bug to blow up the

0:14:08.840 --> 0:14:12.120
<v Speaker 10>cat in them. If that's destroyed, it not only shuts

0:14:12.200 --> 0:14:16.960
<v Speaker 10>off the canal's passage, it'll mutilate hundreds of soldiers.

0:14:18.040 --> 0:14:22.240
<v Speaker 8>Wonderful Roosevelt has always loathed me. But after I fix this,

0:14:22.960 --> 0:14:24.200
<v Speaker 8>well he'll pretend to like me.

0:14:24.400 --> 0:14:26.440
<v Speaker 7>Wait so this is all happening now?

0:14:26.720 --> 0:14:30.080
<v Speaker 5>Oh yeah, Oh my god, Slick, that's why.

0:14:29.920 --> 0:14:32.440
<v Speaker 3>You were here? Was that not clear? What about you?

0:14:32.960 --> 0:14:34.200
<v Speaker 5>No, I'm done.

0:14:34.360 --> 0:14:37.160
<v Speaker 3>But you know these guys you have the intel now

0:14:37.200 --> 0:14:37.480
<v Speaker 3>you do?

0:14:38.080 --> 0:14:41.520

<v Speaker 3>Look, Lenique, motherfucker.

0:14:47.360 --> 0:14:49.360
<v Speaker 10>There's a still away section in the back of the plane.

0:14:49.440 --> 0:14:51.120
<v Speaker 10>You have a ten minute window to get in there.

0:14:51.040 --> 0:14:54.080
<v Speaker 3>And hid go go Okay, okay, but I'm the boss.

0:14:54.160 --> 0:14:54.520
<v Speaker 6>Let's go.

0:14:54.760 --> 0:14:55.720
<v Speaker 3>Let's all remember that.

0:14:55.840 --> 0:14:59.560
<v Speaker 8>Okay, Dominique, come on all right, by mom?

0:15:00.000 --> 0:15:00.480
<v Speaker 5>Are you doing?

0:15:00.680 --> 0:15:03.120
<v Speaker 1>I just need a minute to sort this out. So

0:15:04.080 --> 0:15:06.440
<v Speaker 1>Dad is now working for the CIA.

0:15:06.640 --> 0:15:09.520
<v Speaker 4>Well, yeah, the OSS, which then became the CIA in

0:15:09.600 --> 0:15:10.440
<v Speaker 4>nineteen forty seven.

0:15:10.560 --> 0:15:11.360
<v Speaker 5>So he's a spy.

<v Speaker 1>but he just laughing.
