There are clear skies on the coast tonight.

The windspeed is 3. The barometric pressure is 1018 millibars.

Temperature is 22°c. We're expecting 10 mm of rain before daybreak.

Now we continue our music program...

Thank you everyone...

Thank you Vice President Ralph, and Governor Rosen...

Senator Prescott and Congressman Miles.

And... all my life-long friends... thank you.

I'm grateful that I could have this wonderful birthday party tonight.

After living for 62 years, I feel truly rewarded.

And now my greatest happiness is that I can introduce the new president...

of Dawson Corporation.

Oil Baron Leonard Dawson

As C.E.O., I will hand over most of the authority to our new president.

Ladies and gentlemen, let me introduce the youngest president in the history...

of this company. My closest friend and best student...

My only son, Robert Frederick Dawson!

Now, I have received the greatest present I could from my father...

by becoming the newest president of this company.

As a small token of my appreciation, please accept this flower bouquet.

Thank you, Robert.

A bouquet of anemones and white verbenas to symbolize 29 years...

of appreciation for my father.

Robert!

Robert!! Robert!!

Robert!

Robert!

Bishop, you don't have to worry about it.

But... but, it's already the time, Pago.

That man will never break a promise.

Are you Bishop Meletti?

Yes I am, Sir.

Talk to me.

It was the third Tuesday of last month...

My parents, my brother and his wife. My sister and her family...

In an instant I lost everything, in my hometown of Sicily!

It was the local Mafia and Dr. Z that murdered them!

Marchel was just nine years old!

Maria just started to walk last year.

As you may have already realized, my family was also part of the Mafia.

We had often fought with our own flesh and blood.

I hated that fate and decided to become a bishop, however...

this I can not endure...

I've already deposited the amount we agreed to in your designated account.

I heard you are a man who makes the impossible... possible.

I accept.

Lord... my heart burns with unforgiving vengeance. Please punish me!

Amen!

Bishop!!

You have a very hard target, Duke.

The fact is, that even the highest levels of people in the Mafia...

don't know who Dr. Z is.

Yet despite this, he still controls a large number of Mafia bosses...

and completely controls every political party in Sicily.

The research costs twice as much as usual...

because they're such a new organization.

This is the entire map of the town of Messina, in Sicily.

This is the floor plan to Dr. Z's mansion.

Also, this is a video of Z's family. I snooped around and shot the video.

That's all I got so far...

I'll tell you, with my years of experience and intuition... this assignment is...

Well, good luck!

This is Dr. Z's mansion.

You should consider the whole cape of the Ionia Sea as Dr. Z's mansion.

They have an unusually tight security system.

Since the brutal murder of the Meletti family, all the underlings...

now carry a 1976 model Ingram M11.

It's a high-powered sub-machine gun that was used on the Cambodian front.

This is my own conclusion, but...

I'm sure that Dr. Z is in this mansion.

They're spending too much money on security... so I doubt it's a decoy.

This is Dr. Z's only daughter, Cindy.

She's the only person who's actually in contact with Dr. Z right now.

Dr. Z's orders are given to Cindy first...

and she passes them along to his executives.

I had a hard time taking this footage.

You know, 8 professional bodyguards are with her wherever she goes.

There were many men who've made a pass at Cindy...

but her people killed most of them, after she finished playing with them.

Currently, she isn't seeing anybody.

Any customers?

Yes sir, just one.

Miss Cindy wants to have lunch.

Why don't you have him go someplace else.

Yes, I will tell him.

What?! He doesn't want to leave?!

Yes, he said he was here first.

All right... I'll tell him to leave.

Miss Cindy, let's go back. I'll take care of this.

That man...

Huh?

Bring that man.

Welcome home, Miss Cindy.

Welcome home.

You're the first Japanese man I've ever met.

Why don't you drink, too?

Chavis, Valentine, Cognac...

I can make world class drinks in this room.

Until I get bored of you, I'll kindly keep you in this room.

Who hired you?

Duke Togo!

I know your other name is Golgo 13!

I know you have just one purpose!

To take the life of my father, Dr. Z!

If you know everything, why did you invite me here?

I'm tired.

My father's tired, too.

He said he's tired of this bloody business.

But nobody can kill my father.

Even if you are the best professional assassin.

How was it? Do you wanna push me more?

Perhaps I might confess to you where my father is.

I burned... It's been such a long time.

Please keep quiet for a while.

Yes, father.

Well, yes.

Yes...

Yes...

No! It's not what you think.

I wanted to know how much information he has about you.

No! I will never do that...

What?! But he's unarmed.

No! I have to tell you this.

Why are you afraid of someone who doesn't even have a weapon?

Father, you've never been like this before...

Father!

Father...

Duke, can't you back out from this job?

My father said he couldn't let you live unless you back out.

Duke...

Local time, 7:35 PM.

Messina, B blocks.

G has left Dr. Z's mansion...

and heading to the Anton Hotel, where he is staying.

Roger, give me an update ten minutes from now.

He got close to Cindy. It seems like we can begin our plan.

We will do the one thing that nobody could have ever done.

The legend of Golgo 13 will be ending soon.

I brought the item you requested. Set the time, to start the fuse.

Then just insert this terminal.

Today is my birthday.

Duke! Nobody has ever escaped when they tried to kill my father.

Take this horse.

I want you to leave Sicily, ride from here to the harbor.

Well, good luck.

Who's there?

Duke!

I tested the phone in your room.

The phone rings exactly 15 seconds after you open the locker.

I discovered the door was a time-lag switch.

You were just doing a one-woman show with the phone.

I know Cindy. You're Dr. Z.

Duke!

Duke!

Adjust the sighting! Target... two-four... eight-four...

G showed up! Everybody, stand by!

Duke!

Three!

Two!

One!

Now shoot!!

Target has moved!!

Pago, did you tell anybody about this job?

No.

Then who did this to you?

They weren't Dr. Z's people, were they?

I'll ask one more time.

You've never told anybody about me, have you?

I understand. I believe you. Dr. Z is dead.

Die!

Die!

Shoot!

Shoot! Shoot! Blow up the church!!

Who is it?

Duke!

Somebody's after you.

They're a huge organization that I've never seen or heard of.

Our strategy was perfect.

So was our information! We predicted his actions perfectly.

We hunted down our target.

But we still failed to catch him, even after badly wounding him.

Are you saying that I have all the blame for this?

General.
