the customers should be here by now. we'll be glad to go look for them. yes, i'm sure you would. undoubtedly your men got caught in the london traffic. it may be days before they arrive. if he doesn't show up in the next ten minutes, i'll kill both of you. yes?

you're lucky. let them in. you are commander krohler, apologies for my lateness. i had to negotiate with superiors for the purchase of these two men. one million pounds for each of them. but we are paying you 50 million for the submarine plan. don't try to haggle with me. solo is top u.n.c.l.e. agent in america and brian morton is number one in england. if thrush were to put them on the open market, we could get twice as much.

may i? of course. they're all there. the expectations for the submarine are even higher than we led you to believe. it can travel at 60 knots or 10,000 feet below the surface. excellent. now the money. i'm sorry, commander. i must disappoint you.

you were lucky. o you. did you know that i was the top u.n.c.l.e. agent in america?

t plane to london, ms. rogers, find out when it leaves. -yes, sir. -quick. here, send this message to london. waverly to solo and kuryakin. "disregard last message. remain in london till further orders." that's all. oh, yes, add this. "assemble a dossier on a miss laura adams. and please make certain that agent morton doesn't know you're doing it." end of message. an u.n.c.l.e. jet is leaving for london in four minutes, sir. tell them to hold it for me. you'll enter a resignation? i won't accept it. i'm afraid you have no choice, mr. waverly. mr. morton, you are the number four agent in the u.n.c.l.e. organization. the head of operations for england

i stated it quite succinctly. yes, i know, you intend to get married to ms. laura adams, and in the middle of an assignment. the affair's ended, sir. we've returned the plans to the admiralty documents division. what about the submarine itself? an obvious target for thrush sabotage. well, we've set up new security measures, sir. there can be no real security measures while commander krohler is at large. mr. morton, i'm asking you to stay on until the submarine has its trial run. all right. good. i knew i could count on you. well, now that that's all settled, i should like to meet your fiancee, offer her my best wishes. i'll be glad to introduce you, sir.

fish won't bite until dawn. then i shall have to wait all through the night. so you are commander krohler. at your service, mr. yu. the authentic mr. yu. i have been in touch with your superior. there was no need to. he assured me you will still be able to deliver the plans. i pray he wasn't overly optimistic. you don't have to worry. it is you who should worry, commander krohler. your superior asked me to inform you that unless the plans are in your possession within 24 hours, i shall conclude the deal with your replacement. all right. 24 hours.

blast. blast, your master's voice. well, you better answer it, dear. all right. i won't be a minute. morton here. kuryakin here. there's trouble at the shipyard, an attempt to sabotage the submarine. well, check it out, will you, and get back to me? no, i'm sorry, you're chief of this operation. i can't take charge without your written authorization. well, i confirmed the shipyard.

i suggest you get down to the shipyard immediately. all right. i'll see you in the ship yard in about 10 minutes. what it is it, brian? something's come up. oh, brian, not again. there's no danger, laura. the last time you said that, you were wounded and held prisoner for almost a week. if not, i'll pick you up at your flat. it's really not serious.

mind if i join you? yes, very much. i'm napoleon solo. i'm definitely uninterested. i'm a friend of brian morton. then why did you wait until he left? brian and i are associated with mr. waverly. perhaps brian mentioned him? i'm supposed to take you to a meeting with mr. waverly. i see. then brian's exit was arranged. yes, it was timely. well, why this meeting?

an should enter marriage with an u.n.c.l.e. agent unless her eyes are wide open. my eyes have always been wide open, mr. waverly. i trust you're not going to run brian down. well, mr. morton, and all u.n.c.l.e. agents, are among the finest, most dedicated men in the world. but... take mr. solo here, for example. he has intelligence, verve, physical prowess. the kind of man most women would find very attractive. i thank you, sir. but probably the worst possible candidate for marriage. it's the same with all u.n.c.l.e. agents. once married, they become dull from missing the excitement, the adventure. poor brian. well, i thank you for your warning, mr. waverly. i imagine i'll just have to work extra hard to provide excitement for him. well, i mean all this. now you still have time to reconsider. brian was right, you simply hate to lose him. i am sorry, mr. waverly.

is a very lucky man. flattery, but i'll accept it as fact. goodbye, mr. waverly. only the cat could have gone through there. well, obviously the cat was used to create a diversion and the man scaled the fence. maybe he scaled the fence? mr. morton, we've covered the entire yard, sir. no one got through. it must have been only the man that i spotted in the search light. then you'll describe him? well, i only got a quick look, sir, but i would say that in height and build he was about the same size as mr. kuryakin here. in fact if i didn't know better, i'd say it was him. well, that doesn't give us much to go on.

the cat wasn't the only diversion. perhaps the entire thing was a diversion. i don't follow you. i think you do. well, i suppose i can trust you to write up a report of this incident to mr. waverly. goodnight, kuryakin. thank you for bringing me home. well, it's the least we could do. i'm sorry if we spoiled your saturday night. that's all right. when you're in love with an u.n.c.l.e. agent, you get used to it. do you agree with mr. waverly? do you think brian's making a tragic mistake? oh, i wouldn't put it that way. i agree in theory that u.n.c.l.e. agents

rticular case i can't say that i blame brian. thank you, mr. solo. all right, solo, you've completed your errand. now take a message to mr. waverly for me. tell him that i resent being treated like a marionette. i also resent his intrusion into my personal life. and warn him, mr. solo, that i won't tolerate anything more. i'll get the light, dear. all right, darling.

take the girl into the other room. she stays with me. you are in no position to give orders, mr. morton. keep her company. brian. now, look, krohler, taking me is part of the game, but laura has no relationship to u.n.c.l.e. you're engaged to be married. that has nothing to do with it. oh, but it has everything to do with it. you see, it cost me a lot of time to get those submarine plans. i was all set to deliver them

i want those plans quickly and with the least amount of effort. you will get them for me. you're out of your mind. there's nothing you can do to me that'll make me sell out. to you, mr. morton, perhaps not. but there is your fiancee. but you knew that was coming all long, didn't you? well, the girl impressed me. strong will, good streak of independence, jives with her background information. although there's nothing much here. we didn't have much time, only got the basic facts. they don't appear compromising. what about the men in her life? a girl as good looking as all that. must have been someone before mr. morton. broken engagement, perhaps. check into it, will you? sir, morton has agreed to finish the assignment. why are you interfering in his personal life? i asked you to check into the girl's background.

we don't mean to question your orders... then don't. i'm sorry, gentlemen, i understand your feeling, but... hello? mr. waverly? agent walker here on electronic security. i'm sorry to disturb you on sunday morning, sir. no rest for the virtuous, ms. walker. yes, sir. there's something that mr. morton should know, but i haven't been able to locate him. oh, what's the problem? i'm monitoring the board connected to the documents building. an? yes, go on. well, there was a signal, sir. it only lasted 12 seconds so i thought it might be a temporary short in the board. more likely somebody trying to break in. did you call the guard post? oh, yes, sir, but they reported all clear so i thought it might be a short. keep trying to make contact with mr. morton. i'll send some men over immediately. documents building. looks like thrush is trying another move.

orton. u.n.c.l.e. hq to morton, u.n.c.l.e. to mr. morton. u.n.c.l.e. hq to mr. morton, u.n.c.l.e. to mr. morton. morton to headquarters. mr. morton, agent walker here, sir. there's trouble on the monitor board, a signal from documents. i've been trying to get you for some time, sir, but when i couldn't reach you i called mr. waverly. i say, sir, are you still there? yes, yes. i gather mr. waverly put a man on the job? oh, yes, sir, he sent someone over to the documents building. all right, if mr. waverly rings back, tell him i'm on my way over there. someone may be trying to get into the vault.

we've already checked. well, someone may have come over the wall. well, that's always a possibility, sir. however, all the doors and windows are wired to an alarm system. it's been as quiet as a cemetery. we'll just have a look around, thank you. all right, sir. well, it's locked. that never stopped you in the past. there's only one thing could have caused a short-circuit in the monitor board and it's a window. that's been opened and closed again.

whoever was here came and went. yeah, obviously, but we installed

how did he get passed that? well, the switch was turned off before he entered the vault. he must have known every security measure we took. so before he entered the vault he also knew the combination. so there's only one thing left to check. if memory serves correctly, it's this one. the submarine plans' still here?

mr. morton's here. i've got a call on trouble over here. well, there's some sort of a mishap, sir. mr. solo and mr. kuryakin are inside checking it out right now. oh, well, then we better see what they've found.
