Puppet on a Chain

No points. The New York Mets will play in the first period at Shea Stadium.

The Mets and Cubs meet again tomorrow. Broadcasts begin at 2 p.m.

Tom O'Hara has an average of 289 and has made 22 home runs.

A bit of a hit! The ball goes against the plank!

Tunney rounds third base and makes another ...

THE INVISIBLE ENEMY

KLM Route 644 from New York and London has just landed. Gate 24.

Personnel notice: Security guards and medical personnel-

- must immediately go to gate 24 in the arrival hall.

I repeat: Security guards and medical staff ...

I hate letters ordering me to cooperate with strangers.

Especially with younger people in a foreign police force.

- It was not me who wrote it. - What does the US want to know about our drug trade?

Most of all heroin that leaves the Netherlands appears in the United States.

- And you want to put an end to that? - No, absolutely not.

Oh really?

- Well, what is your view on the matter? - Two days ago-

- three people were killed for stealing heroin that we know came from here.

They worked for the company Schulster , which only imports from the Netherlands.

- Do you call it proof? - No, sir.

What do you want to achieve here in Amsterdam?

I want to find the source.

Is that all?

We have not done very well so far, Mr Sherman.

We know that whole parties come in that are divided, but not where and how.

We can sit back and let the Americans solve it like during the war.

- It's a beautiful city. - So nice that you thrive ...

- ... after such an eventful day. - It was not me who killed Duclos.

We noticed that at the airport. But we know very little about the man, -

- except for his name and that he came from London.

- He must have met your plane. - Yes. He was one of our men.

- Duclos must have known something. - And now we have lost him.

Maybe.

It is said that you have been a Dutch citizen.

Yes, we moved to the United States when I was quite young.

- Sherman? Is it Dutch? - We changed our name ... easier to pronounce.

How do you apologize on behalf of others?

He is retiring soon and is not looking forward to growing tulips.

Sherman, we know your methods.

But here everyone respects the law. Me too. You are no exception.

I booked a room. Sherman.

We've already seen Anne Frank's house. What about the Rijksmuseum?

We have already seen that. That was it with Rembrandt's paintings.

- Welcome to Amsterdam. - Thanks.

- Rom 616, Mr Sherman. - Thanks.

- Let them stand. I'll send them up. - It is not needed.

Rom 616.

LODDENE?

Hello Elsling!

Hi honey! Americans? English?

30 guilders for you, darling.

Come on.

- Now? Did he contact anyone? - I lost him.

You mean, like, saltines and their ilk, eh? And he tricked you?

- Yes. - Great! You do not get another chance.

You know his reputation. Efficient. Make no mistake. Relentless.

- Who is it? - Sherman.

Hello Sherman...

- It was Paul the last time we saw each other. - When did you arrive here?

With the lunch plane. It was full. Had Washington paid first class ...

- Were you shaded here? - Someone tried. Were you?

In the.

Of course. No one outside Washington knows you're working on this case.

- How many people know that you do it? - The local police chief De Graaf.

Apart from him , it's just Jimmy Duclos.

None of them wanted to say anything.

- There's something bothering you, Paul. - Jimmy Duclos is dead.

He was shot when he met me at the airport.

Police say he had a girl with him. Can you find out who it was?

I'll try.

- Do you know who shadowed you? - He went into a warehouse at the harbor.

There was Morgenstern at the door.

- Do you want me to go there? - No. I'll do it.

I want you to lie low. Not even the police know you're here.

These guys, whoever they are now, are killers.

This is going to be tough, Maggie.

How is Joanna?

- She's incredibly happy. - So nice.

Yes, we divorced last year.

Then I start looking for Jimmy's girlfriend.

Stand still! Do not move!

Henda on the table!

Who sent you?

Turn around.

I asked you a question. Who sent you?

Up with her! Whatsoever!

Higher! Turn around!

For the last time ... who sent you?

- Have a nice time. - Thanks.

616, thank you.

- Mr. Sherman? - The key, please.

Thanks.

- We could go on a boat trip. - I just wanted to get seasick.

Then it will be time to stay inside tonight, right?

- Sin. We could have had a drink. - That's the only thing you think about.

Call the police. Get a blanket.

She met Jimmy Duclos two weeks ago.

Her name is Astrid Lemay and she works at the nightclub Bella Nova.

- What did she do? Stripper? - No, she's fooling customers.

She makes them buy expensive drinks and promises to meet them outside afterwards.

- And she does not? - No.

- I want to talk to her. - I'll find her.

Rhine barges, harbor and docks.

Over there we have the city itself.

It's our royal palace. Are you married, Mr Sherman?

- I'm been married. - Some children?

- No. - Wise.

- This is no world for the innocent. - What do you mean?

I'll show you something. Come on.

Trudi ...

Say hello to Mr Sherman. Otherwise you have to go up to your room.

- No, Dad. - Then do as I say.

- Hi. - Hi.

- Dutch gin. Cheers! - Now I understand why we are here.

She calls me dad, but she's my brother's daughter.

We worked together in Curaçao. He and his wife died in a car accident last year.

- How old is she? - No danger. She understands nothing.

Officially 24, mentally 4-5 years.

When she was 16 she was an intelligent girl. Then someone gave her heroin.

After six months , she was up to 5 grams a day.

After a year, she was in an oxygen tent ... so close to death.

She survived, but somewhere along the way she became 12 years younger.

She left the hospital as a child again ... forever, I guess.

Try! Come on.

- Is she a nurse? An old, faithful servant.

My parents' housekeeper from the island of Huyler in the Zuyderzee.

- Do you want to work tonight? - Of course.

- Have you worked with drugs for a long time? - Way too long.

Everyone feels that way.

This is what the future looks like. Handsome young people. They do no harm.

Just an innocent hash night. No one thinks they will become addicted.

They believe that there is still a future.

In one year, half go on heavy drugs, next year three out of ten are dead.

He just came in. Johann Gerber. 19 years.

I do not show his face. He's been in the canal for too long.

This is ... get to see ... Hans Rosenmeyer. Can you hold this, please?

- 16 years. - Full of heroin. 16 years.

- What kind of bruises are these? - He fell from the roof of a warehouse.

May I see?

- What was he doing up there? - Who knows what these wrecks are up to.

- I can show you where it is. - No, I'll probably go to bed.

Of course.

- Schulster, New York? - Yes.

Bibles at a souvenir store. Strange.

Marianne? Where did you get this book?

From the one who overshadowed me. What about your famous intuition?

Just good.

- What does Marianne mean? - That's the name of a boat.

A whiskey, please.

Thanks.

- Miss Lemay? - Yes.

I wanted to make sure it was you.

Do not go. Come and sit down.

Who are you? How did you know I was here?

- I heard that. - What do you want?

Jimmy Duclos was a friend. I wanted to meet the last person who spoke to him.

- I do not know who killed him. - I just want to know why.

For the same reason you will be killed if you do not stop asking about this.

This statue is, of course, newer than the church itself.

The artist now lives in Italy.

Now we have to go back to the bus in the corner of the park.

We just have time to have lunch before we go to The Hague.

She came right here. The only one she spoke to was a female employee.

- What did she look like? - An old, hurried virgin.

I'll go in and see later.

Mr Sherman? Hallo, mr Sherman.

Hey, Trudi. What are you doing here? Are you alone? Where is Herta?

Herta is gone.

- Hi. - Hi.

- Who are you? - A tourist.

- Are you Mr Sherman's friend? - Who?

I'm the Sherman. It's best I follow you home, Trudi.

- I do not want to go home. - What do you say to a taxi ride?

Oh, can we take a cab?

- Is this table all right? - Yes. Champagne.

A whiskey, please.

- He does not get more money. - Is that why you should meet him?

He must understand. It can not continue like that. I have to borrow money soon.

You can get all the money you need for George ... and yourself.

I'm always generous when there 's something I really want.

I need it! You wanted us to meet and then I'll only get 20 guilders!

I know you have something there!

If I do not get it from you, I will get it somewhere else! Trust it!

- Can you not stop persecuting me? - Next time, I'll let you be robbed.

It was not a thief, but my brother. Let's be at peace!

Oh my God!

Lemay?

- Pardon. Is something wrong? - No, why?

- I think I heard something in church. - In church?

Yes, in my church. I'm a pastor here. I thought there was someone in there.

- I have not been to church for years. - Is it a friend?

- Yes. - What's up with him?

- He has drunk a little too much. - Can I help?

No thank you. Pardon.

You may not believe me, but I found him in a church.

George, you idiot! Disappear!

- I'm trying to help you. - How can you help me?

Do you want to be pressured for money, kill Duclos, get George a shot daily?

I did not know they would kill Jimmy.

But they did it because of you. Only you knew he was going to meet me.
