Wonder Woman

PERFECT.

YOU DID A BEAUTIFUL JOB, GENTLEMEN. BEAUTIFUL.

THE BAR'S OPEN. WHY DON'T YOU HAVE A DRINK? YOU DESERVE IT.

YOU GOT THE TICKETS? IN MY POCKET.

THE GIRL FROM THE AIRLINE DELIVERED THEM HERSELF.

HE'S NOT GONNA LIKE THIS, GEORGE. DON'T THINK ABOUT THAT, CASS.

THINK ABOUT THE MONEY WE NOW HAVE...

THAT THEY WOULD HAVE HAD.

JOEY, I DON'T WANT ANY TRACE OF THESE BODIES FOUND.

IT WAS PERHAPS INEVITABLE...

THAT THE MAN-MADE WORLD WOULD ONE DAY REQUIRE A UNIQUE WOMAN,

A WONDER WOMAN.

THAT DAY HAS COME.

YOU ARE THAT UNIQUE WOMAN, DIANA.

YOU WILL BE THE WONDER WOMAN.

SO, HAVING PARTED FROM THE MANY SISTERS YOU'VE KNOWN ALL THE DAYS OF YOUR LIFE,

NOW PART FROM THESE FEW WHO ARE YOUR CLOSEST FRIENDS.

PART FROM THEM WITH THE SAME DIGNITY AND STRENGTH...

YOUR NEW LIFE WILL DEMAND.

YOU MAKE A SACRIFICE I COULD NEVER MAKE, DIANA.

AND I WOULD GO IN YOUR PLACE WITHOUT HESITATION...

TO THE WONDERS OF THE OUTSIDE WORLD.

THERE IS NO GREATER WONDER THAN THE PEACE AND JOY WE HAVE ON OUR ISLAND, ANGELA.

HOW I SHALL MISS YOU, TING.

AND YOU, MY SISTER.

YOU'RE ENDOWED WITH EXTRAORDINARY WISDOM, LOVE AND STRENGTH, DAUGHTER.

AND NOW YOU'RE CHARGED WITH A MISSION.

TO ACCOMPLISH THAT MISSION, YOU MUST LEAVE THIS ISLAND.

YOU MUST ADOPT OTHER WAYS,

FOR THAT IS THE ONLY TRUE MEANS...

OF TAKING OUR PURE AND TRUE LOVE OF JUSTICE AND RIGHT...

TO THAT WORLD BEYOND OURS HERE.

THERE'S DEEP SADNESS IN HAVING YOU LEAVE US,

BUT THERE'S ALSO JOY,

THE HOPE THAT YOUR PRESENCE IN THE WORLD OF MAN...

WILL OPEN CLOSED EYES TO THE GENUINE VALUE OF WOMEN,

THAT YOU'LL NEVER LOSE THE SENSITIVITY THAT IS OUR REAL STRENGTH.

YOU CARRY WITH YOU OUR LOVE.

YES, SIR.

'COURSE I UNDERSTAND THE IMPLICATIONS, KOMMISSAR.

I THINK WE CAN WORK OUT A COMPROMISE.

THEY'RE WILLING TO MAKE AN EXCHANGE... SHERNITZKY FOR LOWCHI.

CONSIDER THE PROPOSAL. I'LL PHONE BACK.

BOTH SIDES ARE CONSIDERING AN EXCHANGE, MR. SECRETARY.

I'LL PHONE YOU BACK WHEN A DECISION IS REACHED.

I WANT ALL AVAILABLE AGENTS IN THE AREA AT ONCE, DIANA.

THEY'RE ALREADY ON THEIR WAY. - GOOD.

I RESERVED THE COMPUTER AND THEY'RE WAITING FOR YOUR CALL AT THE DATA BANK.

LINE THREE-EIGHT. - YOU'RE ALWAYS A STEP AHEAD OF ME.

DATA BANK, LINE THREE-EIGHT.

WELL, HERE'S TODAY'S SURPRISE.

I KNOW IT'S SMALL, BUT IT'S THE BEST I COULD DO ON SHORT NOTICE.

THAT'S SWEET. THANKS.

YES, SIR?

SEND THEM IN WHEN THEY GET HERE, D.

THEY'RE HERE, SIR. GENTLEMEN?

GO RIGHT ON IN.

DINNER, D? DON'T ANSWER NOW. THINK ABOUT IT.

THINK ABOUT IT.

GENTLEMEN,

THE COMPLETE LIST OF ALL OUR AGENTS IN THE FIELD,

THEIR COVER IDENTITIES AND THEIR SPECIFIC ASSIGNMENTS HAS BEEN STOLEN,

AND WITH THAT LIST, THE KEY TO EVERY DIPLOMATIC AND MILITARY CODE...

IN USE BY OUR GOVERNMENT THROUGHOUT THE WORLD.

EACH WAS BROKEN DOWN INTO FIVE PARTS,

ALL FIVE PARTS BEING NECESSARY TO USE ANY OF THEM.

THERE WERE DOZENS OF DECOY BOOKS PLANTED IN VARIOUS EMBASSIES THROUGHOUT THE WORLD.

NONE OF THOSE WERE TOUCHED. JUST THE TEN VALUABLE BOOKS.

THEY WERE KEPT IN HIGHLY SECRET HIDING PLACES...

IN BERLIN, ISTANBUL,

RIO DE JANEIRO, PARIS...

AND LONDON.

THEFTS TOOK PLACE SIMULTANEOUSLY AND INGENIOUSLY,

JUST AFTER OUR AGENTS HAD FINISHED REPORTING IN.

AS YOU ALL KNOW, AN AGENT IN THE FIELD REPORTS IN EVERY 72 HOURS...

AT A PREARRANGED TIME AT TEN MINUTE INTERVALS,

WHICH MEANS WE ARE COMPLETELY OUT OF TOUCH WITH ALL OF OUR AGENTS...

FOR THE NEXT 72 HOURS.

THEY CAN'T BE REACHED OR WARNED BETWEEN COMMUNICATIONS.

IF THOSE LISTS AND CODES FALL INTO THE HANDS OF OUR ADVERSARIES,

OUR PEOPLE WILL BE AT THEIR MERCY FOR THE NEXT THREE DAYS.

COMPLETELY VULNERABLE TO BE APPREHENDED OR ELIMINATED.

THIRTY-NINE OF OUR BEST INTELLIGENCE OPERATORS.

AND WITH THOSE 39 LIVES LOST, OUR ENTIRE ORGANIZATION...

WILL CEASE TO EXIST IN THAT ONE DEADLY SWEEP.

NOW, THE THIEF KNOWS THAT, AND HAS SET HIS PRICE...

FOR RETURNING THOSE TEN BOOKS ACCORDINGLY...

$15 MILLION IN CASH.

HE HAS GIVEN US 48 HOURS TO GATHER THE MONEY.

HE WILL CONTACT US AGAIN IN ONE OF OUR TOP-SECRET CODES...

AS TO WHERE AND HOW THE RANSOM IS TO BE PAID.

GIVEN ALL THE PERTINENT INFORMATION, OUR DATA BANK OF COMPUTERS...

HAS COME UP WITH ONLY THREE INDIVIDUALS OR ORGANIZATIONS...

CAPABLE OF THIS ENTERPRISE.

BRIDGE CRIME CARTEL HEADED BY WINSTON THOMAS,

WITH HEADQUARTERS IN LANDOF, WALES;

CHARLES SANGRY, FREELANCE OPERATIVE WITHOUT NATIONALITY,

CARACAS, VENEZUELA;

AND ABNER SMITH, A CONTRACTOR WHO SETS UP INTELLIGENCE OPERATIONS...

FOR ANY NUMBER OF NATIONS.

CAP d'ANTIBES, FRANCE.

NEVER PHOTOGRAPHED. THIS IS A CAR USED...

IN AN OPERATION LAST YEAR.

YOU'VE EACH GOT ONE HOUR TO DEVISE A COUNTER PLAN TO RECOVER THOSE BOOKS...

AND SAVE THOSE LIVES.

ALL RIGHT, CLOCK IS TICKING. GET ON IT.

WELL, D, WHAT DO YOU THINK?

I'M AFRAID I... I CAN'T HAVE DINNER WITH YOU TONIGHT.

PROBABLY JUST AS WELL. ODDS ARE I'LL BE IN CARACAS BY DINNER TIME.

BOB? YOU WILL BE CAREFUL?

SEE YOU LATER.

WHAT DO YOU THINK, D? WHAT CAN ANYONE THINK WITH THAT MANY LIVES IN JEOPARDY?

STEVE?

I'LL BE AWAY FROM THE OFFICE FOR A WHILE.

A DENTAL APPOINTMENT. I LOST A FILLING.

IT HAPPENS. I HOPE YOU'LL FEEL UP TO COMING IN TOMORROW.

WELL, YOU NEVER KNOW HOW LONG THESE THINGS WILL TAKE.

PHONE IN AND LET ME KNOW? - FIRST CHANCE I GET.

I CAN CALL THE STENO POOL AND HAVE SOMEONE COME IN AND REPLACE ME WHILE I'M GONE.

HEY.

NOBODY CAN REPLACE YOU.

AT TIMES LIKE THIS, I REALLY WORRY ABOUT YOU.

I KNOW.

BUT PLEASE DON'T. I'M SURE I CAN HANDLE IT.

IF ANYONE CAN, YOU CAN.

BUT I STILL WORRY. THANKS.

WHICH DENTIST ARE YOU GOING TO TRY?

I THINK ZE FRENCH ONE.

INTUITION?

I WOULD HAVE GUESSED THE ENGLISH. - C'EST LA VIE.

C'EST VOUS, MADEMOISELLE.

702. ONE OF OUR VERY BEST.

YEAH. MERCI.

WONDER WOMAN. SHE'S HERE. ROOM 702.

HOLD ON. YOU WERE RIGHT, MR. SMITH.

SHE JUST CHECKED INTO THE HOTEL ST. GERMAIN, ROOM 702.

MARVELOUS. IT'S ONE OF OURS.

SHE SHOULD BE ELIMINATED.

JUST DELAY, GEORGE. SEVENTY-TWO HOURS. JUST DELAY, GEORGE!

SEVENTY-TWO HOURS.

VIOLENCE AND MAYHEM, THAT'S SO GAUCHE.

HE CAN HOLD HER IN HER ROOM.

IF HE'S ABLE TO.

I DON'T AGREE WITH YOU, MR. SMITH.

THIS ISN'T A DEMOCRACY, GEORGE.

WE DON'T TAKE A VOTE HERE.

YOU'RE THE BOSS. YES, GEORGE.

I AM.

JOEY, WELCOME THE LADY.

POLITELY.

THANK YOU, BUT... TRES BIEN.

HELLO? - MY NAME IS GEORGE CALVIN.

NOW, YOU DON'T KNOW ME, BUT YOU JUST PASSED ME IN THE LOBBY.

YOU ARE THE MOST BEAUTIFUL WOMAN I'VE EVER SEEN IN MY LIFE,

AND IF YOU DON'T HAVE DINNER WITH ME TONIGHT,

I'M JUST GOING TO HAVE TO THROW MYSELF FROM THE TOP OF THIS BUILDING.

AND MAYBE I CAN HELP YOU FIND WHAT YOU CAME TO CAP d'ANTIBES FOR.

WELL, THEN, HOW CAN I REFUSE?

00? - IN THE LOBBY.

IN THE LOBBY.

I SERIOUSLY DOUBT YOU'LL HAVE THE SUCCESS YOU THINK YOU WILL, GEORGE.

YACHT SAILS LIKE CLOUDS. YOU NEED AN ANGEL.

NEVER, GEORGE, NEVER.

TEN THOUSAND SAYS YOU'RE WRONG. - YOU GOT A BET.

YOU'RE ON.

I THINK YOU'LL FIND CAP d'ANTIBES...

A VERY EXCITING CITY.

IT IS.

SO FAR, A GENTLEMAN HAS DROPPED IN ON ME FROM THE ROOF OF THE ELEVATOR.

MY ROOM IS BUGGED. THEN YOU DIDN'T GET THE ROOM WITH THE TRAP DOOR?

THEY NEVER BUG THAT ROOM. WELL, NOW, THAT'S A RELIEF, GEORGE.

AND, THEN YOU CALLED ME.

WHY? TO INVITE YOU SAILING.

ON MR. SMITH'S YACHT?

I WAS OUT THIS MORNING.

IT WAS WARM.

THERE WAS A WIND.

THE SAILS LOOKED LIKE CLOUDS.

ALL THAT WAS MISSING...

WAS AN ANGEL TO MAKE IT PERFECT.

COME SAILING WITH ME TOMORROW.

MAY I BRING YOU AN APERITIF, MONSIEUR? CHAMPAGNE?

I'D RATHER A GLASS OF HERMITAGE BLANC, IF YOU DON'T MIND.

A BOTTLE OF YOUR VERY BEST HERMITAGE BLANC.

- ICE THE GLASSES. - VERY GOOD, MONSIEUR.

I DON'T KNOW THAT WINE. - IT'S AN INEXPENSIVE RHONE WINE,

BUT IT HAS ITS OWN STYLE.

YOU DESERVE CHAMPAGNE. - EVEN IF I DON'T LIKE IT?

THERE ARE SOME THINGS IN THIS WORLD...

WORTH LEARNING TO LIKE.

VOILA. MERCI.

TO THIS NIGHT.

YOU ARE SO TOTALLY CAPTIVATING.

LET ME MAKE LOVE TO YOU. - WHY?

BECAUSE YOUR EYES REACH INTO MY... - YOU MISUNDERSTOOD ME.

I DIDN'T MEAN WHY SHOULD YOU WANT TO. I MEANT WHY SHOULD I?

DON'T YOU FIND ME... ATTRACTIVE, APPEALING?

YES. BUT THERE ARE QUITE A FEW ATTRACTIVE AND APPEALING MEN IN THIS WORLD.

I DON'T CARE ABOUT THE OTHERS.

GEORGE. YOU DON'T?
