The first 200 lines.
How much longer are we gonna wait?
He's coming now.
Mr Kalinsky, can you tell us the reason
for your visit to this country?
Gentlemen, please.
Mr Kalinsky has not statement to make at present.
Thank you, gentlemen.
Good morning, sir.
Morning.
Thank you.
Mr Kalinsky.
We're delighted to have you here with us again.
Your usual suite is ready.
I'm expecting a Mr Benson to call.
Have him sent up the moment he arrives, will you please?
Certainly, see to that.
Very good, sir.
The gentleman to see you, sir.
Thank you.
Mr Kalinsky's waiting for you.
How are you, Carmen?
Very well, thank you, sir.
Am I disturbing you?
Hm?
Oh my dear Gregoroff.
We meet again.
Profitably, I hope?
Very.
You're looking well.
Cigarette?
No, thank you,
I'll give you something really good to smoke.
Fine.
Speaking of something good.
The deals and subscriptions from the Key Club
this last year amounted to just under 5,000 pounds.
Excellent.
Lucky for us there's so many fools willing to give money
in the sacred cause of peace.
Present from a certain South American president.
In appreciation of your machine guns huh?
What death stealing inventions have we bought lately
in the cause of peace?
Well, for one thing, we purchased a gun
which kills thousands.
Only it doesn't work.
Then we've acquired a newer and deadlier poison gas.
But which isn't very affective.
Thank you.
The club members were very very pleased.
Good.
May I?
Do.
The sacred cause of peace, huh?
What about the Caldwell aeroplane?
We'll keep that for ourselves.
You're sure that works?
I've seen it.
It's perfect.
We can name our own price to any foreign power.
Splendid.
Now, I'll have the plans for you later this evening.
Then it won't be necessary
for me to go to Scotland tomorrow.
We've done all that's necessary in Scotland.
The inventor went there for secrecy.
Which suited us perfectly.
I understand.
What time is the meeting tonight?
Eight o'clock.
At Hartley manor.
And the club members are anxiously awaiting your speech.
I feel flattered.
By the way.
What is the subject of your sermon tonight?
Finances applied to world peace.
Kalinsky in London!
Newspaper!
All of London's enlightened!
All of London's investing!
Ha, Good morning, Grayson.
Morning.
Seen the paper, Colonel?
No.
I wonder why he arrived in such a blaze
of publicity this time.
Well, probably to put our minds at ease.
If I had my way, I'd lock him up in a lunatic asylum.
That's where most of his mystery finances ought to be.
What he wants is a firing squad.
What good would that do, Grayson?
Do you know what's wrong with you fellows
at the Intelligence department?
Well, what.
You will not realise, that wherever there's trouble,
there will always be another Kalinsky.
Equally unscrupulous, ready to make war
a profitable business.
Yes, who is it?
All right, put him through.
Very interesting young fellow this.
Scotsman, got an idea for a robot aeroplane.
Very hush hush.
Yes, put Mr Caldwell through.
Hello.
He...
Stay right where you are, Mr Caldwell.
Hello.
Get him to the car.
He's been cut off.
Give me exchange again, will you please?
No, they cut me off.
Would you agree, Mr Caldwell?
I'm asking you a question, Mr Caldwell.
Mr Caldwell isn't answering questions.
He will.
Don't shoot, you fool, you'll kill him.
Quiet, Jocko, basket.
- Good evening. - Evening.
How long have you been here?
Thirty year, come Christmas.
By the door.
Maybe five minutes.
- Seen anyone? - hmm-mm.
Two men. - Two men.
What were they like?
You should know, seen as how you be the two men.
Mind me coming in?
Who did that?
Wish I knew.
And you saw nothing at all curious?
Not 'til you came.
Search upstairs.
Can you keep your mouth shut?
I can, sir.
Well, look here, the man who did that,
escaped from an asylum.
It's unpleasant and we rather not have gossip.
I'll be too busy counting these.
Won't take me long though.
That's better.
Cal!
Did you find something upstairs?
Gee, certainly they're long gone.
Come quick to the car.
Remember.
Good for you, boy.
Well, Jocko, what do you make of it?
Cranloch,
history,
Caldwell.
There he is, make it to the car.
Come out of there.
You're riding in the back this time.
I wonder if there was a note wrapped around that stone
that went through the window.
Well, what do we do now, Jocko?
Walk four miles in the fog to tell the police?
You're right.
We wait until morning.
What do you think of that, Jocko?
No, you wouldn't like him at all.
He's not your type.
Cranloch, history, Caldwell.
Aeroplanes, history.
Air ministry.
Jocko.
It's all right, Jocko.
Oh, forgive me,
but the door was open.
Can I be of any assistance?
My car's broken down.
I wonder if could use your phone?
You could if we had one.
Oh dear, what a morning.
I've come out without my breakfast.
Would you care to share an egg?
I'd share anything.
Let's stick to an egg for the present.
Won't you come in.
Thank you.
Welcome to the castle.
I'll prepare the banquet.
Can the lady in distress help?
The lady in distress needs help.
Oh, I don't know.
I can boil water.
And I can burn toast.
I'm afraid I'm putting you through a lot of bother.
Think nothing of it.
If there's one thing I like more than another,
it's being bothered.
Living alone?
Oh, no, I have protection.
My housekeeper's returning this morning.
In the meantime, I'm headman.
Thank you, Jenkins.
Thank you, madam, but the name is Jeeves.
Indian or China?
What are you having?
