Speaker 1: Tired of the everyday routine, ever dream of a life
Speaker 1: of romantic adventure. I want to get away from it all.
Speaker 1: We offer you escape.
Speaker 2: Escape designed to free you from the four walls of
Speaker 2: to day for a half hour of high adventures.
Speaker 1: That happened well at time, yes, but we did not
Speaker 1: make contact. Will happen all the gold h Look you
Speaker 1: have the tickets have a h third class, so all
Speaker 1: I can get So then who do Oh no, if
Speaker 1: they had a kid. This is mister Gallander. He will
Speaker 1: take you to Hanover.
Speaker 2: Where you are you.
Speaker 1: Bruce better enough to get on the train.
Speaker 3: Now no, well, wait for the whistle.
Speaker 1: Oh why here's.
Speaker 3: The crowd for cover?
Speaker 1: Smsterhurrek, turn your face to me. Might to keep you
Speaker 1: back to the train. Now wait all right now, Eric,
Speaker 1: He's not gonna felize that. As the British Zone terminus
Speaker 1: of the East German Underground, I'd had my share of surprises,
Speaker 1: but none of the match finding Lawton.
Speaker 3: Herrick in my custody.
Speaker 1: This was the man who had disappeared behind the iron
Speaker 1: curtain of a year ago, voluntarily brilliant nuclear physicist and
Speaker 1: authority on thermonuclear reaction even swallowed up in the gigantic
Speaker 1: red maub of Eastern Europe's highest bider for his brain,
Speaker 1: and now he was back. It was up to me
Speaker 1: who escort him safely to Hanover to British intelligence. And
Speaker 1: as we rode, I speculated on why he had come back.
Speaker 2: I suppose you are wondering why I came back?
Speaker 1: Why did you? Very simple?
Speaker 2: I had finally realized I'd picked the wrong side, so I
Speaker 2: touched the whole show and came home.
Speaker 1: Just like that. As you say, just like that, you
Speaker 1: sounds pretty casual. How else should I be? I don't know.
Speaker 2: It is my conscience you're concerned with. Don't bother.
Speaker 1: I got more from them than they got from me.
Speaker 2: Oh yes, I know every installation they've set up, what
Speaker 2: the christionable material output is per day, and of what
Speaker 2: their potentially is for producing the hydrogen bombing quantity.
Speaker 1: Uh huh? Where are your records notes?
Speaker 2: That's sort of I memorized paper and pencil were too risky.
Speaker 2: I had a security guard with me constantly.
Speaker 1: How did you get away? He walked out of Magdeburgh.
Speaker 1: What about the garden?
Speaker 2: I imagine they'll bury him with full military honors.
Speaker 1: As I imagine alone.
Speaker 2: Tery but we're here now, and I am safe, and
Speaker 2: that's all that really matters, isn't it.
Speaker 1: Well? I won't feel safe until they got fast Tala's labor.
Speaker 1: It ain't there? Oh about uh?
Speaker 3: About two hours?
Speaker 2: Do we stop there?
Speaker 1: That's for a few minutes where mine?
Speaker 2: Did I take a nap?
Speaker 1: Such yourself?
Speaker 2: Wake me and tell his labor? Will you?
Speaker 1: Right now? He went to sleep, and I thought about
Speaker 1: how easy is that? Escape had been too easy? This
Speaker 1: was no ordinary defection to the camp of the free world.
Speaker 1: This man was important, important enough that his safe arrival
Speaker 1: could cause him considerable embarrassment of those from Whomi's escape.
Speaker 1: We waised them to Talus Laban. A few passengers got out,
Speaker 1: some came aboard, and we started off again. Did you
Speaker 1: sleep well, reverdy? Where we're leaving Talis Laban? Use it? No? I? Yes?
Speaker 1: Who is it? Oh? Come in now? Will you please
Speaker 1: tell this stupid the honeymoment. If you flee, there is
Speaker 1: no time. Go ahead, identify me, but hurry. It's all right, conductor.
Speaker 1: I know what a well, I'll take care of it
Speaker 1: later now if you please.
Speaker 2: Of course, I forgive me, but my job and I
Speaker 2: have a wife, and yes, yes, we know all that.
Speaker 1: Now will you go please? Yes, Bruce, Now.
Speaker 3: We are in trouble.
Speaker 1: Oh, what's the matter? They know where we are, but
Speaker 1: they have an agent aboard this train. Or when did
Speaker 1: we get on just now as Collor's leaving or we
Speaker 1: just left talents?
Speaker 3: Well, yes I know, and that's.
Speaker 1: Idiot of a conductor. Would not let me find you
Speaker 1: in time to get you off? Well, and we stay
Speaker 1: here in this compartment till we get a handle. Now
Speaker 1: that is the problem. We won't get too hard over
Speaker 1: Why there is a bomb on board? A bomb, yes,
Speaker 1: in a suitcase, and the plan is to destroy a
Speaker 1: train with me get on the old Caribe bridge. Well,
Speaker 1: then we'll stop the train. No, I thought of that,
Speaker 1: And that's no good because whoever it is has orders
Speaker 1: to explode it if the train stops for any reason
Speaker 1: before we reach the river. When did you learn this?
Speaker 1: An hour after you left, I received a message from
Speaker 1: the Merrimakey boards they found body of that god soon
Speaker 1: after Harry lived. They missed you in Herbitsfielder, and they
Speaker 1: arranged this hour of sleep and interception. But how did
Speaker 1: Jui roll? And when I got here the train was
Speaker 1: pulling out of the station. Jot if it had not
Speaker 1: been but a stupid conduct, it's so late for that. Now, Yes,
Speaker 1: we've got to find a bond. It's the agent of
Speaker 1: man or a woman, though I don't know, Bruce, how
Speaker 1: soon before we reached the ocre river. But from now
Speaker 1: about an hour and a half hour.
Speaker 2: And a half between the career verse we should.
Speaker 1: Be Now, Herrick, you stay here, but at least I
Speaker 1: s Erick. Yes, we know nothing of a tomic reactions.
Speaker 1: That is your field, this is ours. Just do as
Speaker 1: you're told, will you please? I'm sorry? All right, and yes,
Speaker 1: get the conductor, yes, and hurry.
Speaker 2: But why we are not at all?
Speaker 1: Why should they want to do this to me? It's
Speaker 1: not Joe, it's us start doing it. So but what
Speaker 1: can I do?
Speaker 2: Or shall I? Look?
Speaker 1: We'll do the looking. All we want from you is cooperation,
Speaker 1: that will cooperate.
Speaker 2: What isn't there for me to do?
Speaker 1: Not much? Now? First, do you have a list of
Speaker 1: the passengers that got on the tours were here? Good? Second,
Speaker 1: can we get into the baggage car while the trainers
Speaker 1: in motion? On this train?
Speaker 2: You can some of the first and segment right.
Speaker 1: That's enough. As long as we can get on this.
Speaker 2: One, no way.
Speaker 1: What about the baggage? Did we take much aboard? The
Speaker 1: tellers slam only the baggage clerk knows that you'll go
Speaker 1: with me? When I got to the baggage cart, Yes,
Speaker 1: go through the cars claimingness, you've lost the bag? You understand? Yes,
Speaker 1: you match up every bag with an honor right, mark
Speaker 1: the location of any oddist that you may find. He
Speaker 1: may have put it on one of the baggage shells
Speaker 1: and left the train. Where will you be baggage car?
Speaker 3: Yes?
Speaker 2: But after that back here the challenger?
Speaker 1: Yes, Eric, it won't be easy staying yes, you didn't
Speaker 1: expect it to be the do I suppose?
Speaker 2: Not?
Speaker 1: Well?
Speaker 3: Good nothing, good luck.
Speaker 1: But if he's not a policeman and not a soldier,
Speaker 1: why should I let him in this baggage carries?
Speaker 2: Now, do not argue with us.
Speaker 1: There's no time. Why should let me let me? Carl?
Speaker 1: This is an emergency. I must be permitted inside to
Speaker 1: check the baggage. But where did you permit badge prudentials,
Speaker 1: anything that I may locate.
Speaker 2: Jobs are hard to get. My wife and children.
Speaker 1: Were all right? All right? Then I'll side you. Someone
Speaker 1: has planted a bomb on board that's gonna go on.
Speaker 1: I'm yes, I'm bombed. And if I don't find it,
Speaker 1: and well, let me say an hour and fifteen minutes,
Speaker 1: none of us will be able to hold a job anymore. Now,
Speaker 1: may we come in? Yes, come in? All right? What
Speaker 1: do you want to know? How many pieces of baggage
Speaker 1: came about it? Teleslap? Not many? Five suitcases, A thrunk
Speaker 1: and that's create the crates.
Speaker 3: But then the crate I.
Speaker 1: Don't know, it's rooted true to hanover all right? Have
Speaker 1: you got a hammer? But I hate no story at
Speaker 1: me a hammer? All right?
Speaker 2: Okay, careful piece, careful.
Speaker 1: Watch us furniture. Okay, Now the suitcases over here? Have
Speaker 1: you a sharp knife?
Speaker 2: Yes?
Speaker 1: But why I must set the bags open? Cut? But
Speaker 1: the onlyest way I'll take the responsibility I get the knife.
Speaker 1: It was the only thing to do. The bag to
Speaker 1: be cut open and affected by hand. Opening a catch
Speaker 1: might set the bomb off, even if the debt, or
Speaker 1: if it wasn't wise.
Speaker 3: To it, which in all likelihood it was.
Speaker 1: As I cut into the first bag, I was a
Speaker 1: hard knock forming in the seat of my stomach. I
Speaker 1: reached inside the bag.
Speaker 3: Clothes.
Speaker 1: The second case clothes, the third to the fourth and
Speaker 1: the fist. Then we broke up in the truck.
Speaker 3: Uh, no bomb.
Speaker 1: I wiped my face. I left the conductor and Carl
Speaker 1: and went back to the compartment.
Speaker 2: Nothing. No, nothing, Where is that st checking bags? I
Speaker 2: suppose how much time do we have?
Speaker 1: Not quite an hour? Time enough? I don't know.
Speaker 2: You're sure the bomb is a book?
Speaker 1: Yes, I'm sure that doesn't make mistakes. What do we
Speaker 1: do now? Or you do just what you've been doing.
Speaker 1: Stay here, I'm going out and check the passengers that
Speaker 1: came about it.
Speaker 2: Thomas Leaping, So anything you want me to tell ends
Speaker 2: when he.
Speaker 1: Gets back, Yes, if you get back.
Speaker 2: We assumed we are doomed.
Speaker 1: I tell him what's the matter of diffrac?
Speaker 2: The engineers going to stop the train stop?
Speaker 1: What do you mean stop? He can't? I told you
Speaker 1: what would happen if we stop before we reached the Oka?
Speaker 2: Nevertheless, engineers going to stop?
Speaker 1: Or why?
Speaker 2: He says he has a bad coupling and the courtender.
Speaker 1: Did you tell him why we couldn't stop?
Speaker 2: Yes? He says he can keep the bad coupling, and
Speaker 2: the courtender the bomb. He cannot sleep.
Speaker 1: Oh no, therefore the bad coupling must take precedence, and
Speaker 1: he's going to stop the train. Mm hmm, Dietrich, the
Speaker 1: conductor had justin formed me that dud with affective coupling.
Speaker 1: The engineer was about to stop the train. And under
Speaker 1: these circumstances. It was a horrifying thot because we knew
Speaker 1: that the train was to be blown up, and it
Speaker 1: stopped for any reason before we reached the Yoca ripper.
Speaker 1: I thought you stod being for the matter. The engineer
Speaker 1: is going to stop the train, No he can't. I
Speaker 1: pause you what I know? I know, Ditric told And
Speaker 1: what more can I do?
Speaker 2: It out of my hands?
Speaker 1: Well, there's one thing more, ye, And what mister Color,
Speaker 1: and go back to the engineer, tell him we want
Speaker 1: fifteen minutes and tell him that if he refuses, I
Speaker 1: will personally kill him. What's the coupling? What about it?
Speaker 1: I don't care about the coupling. If it breaks, we're dead. Anyway,
Speaker 1: Let's at least try to find the bomb. Yes, mister Color,
Speaker 1: and I'll told him Bruce. What shall we do if
Speaker 1: that engineer refuse and I will kill him or at
Speaker 1: least get him out of the cabin. Let's the fireman
Speaker 1: run on the train. You know, there is still the
Speaker 1: possibility there that agents may have planted the bomb and
Speaker 1: himself then led the train. I might, but we don't know, No,
Speaker 1: that we don't. What about that baggage car high screened
Speaker 1: the passenger's luggage, John, Every piece matched up?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 1: Now there there can we go? Now? Did you give
Speaker 1: you a list of passengers that boarded at SPA Sentinens?
Speaker 3: Yes, yes, all right, giving.
Speaker 1: Me all right? Yes, but they are all Jeck Bruce,
Speaker 1: they said, one couple in second class? Well, one couple. Couple, Yes,
Speaker 1: it's married couple, knew event it could not possibly be
Speaker 1: the one that would be very clever of them, wouldn't
Speaker 1: its very Where are they in this car? The compartment
Speaker 1: third from the end of your pistol? Yes, I might
Speaker 1: give it to me here. Do you want me to
Speaker 1: come with you? Now? Give me five minutes?
Speaker 2: Right?
Speaker 1: This was infinitely worse than fighting in the dark dark
Speaker 1: fighting terrified me. Here Miami was unseen, unknown, and out
Speaker 1: of reach. That he was close enough to mark us
Speaker 1: all for that. At a specific time, as I hurried
Speaker 1: along the corridor, I granted at my watch if the
Speaker 1: engineer gave us the fifteen minutes I'd asked for it,
Speaker 1: and we had already used three of those.
Speaker 3: Precious minutes planning strategist.
Speaker 1: One thing I knew for Seringa, the hand holding the
Speaker 1: gun in my pocket, would not come out until I
Speaker 1: was completely satisfied as to the identity of the newly weds.
Speaker 2: Here.
Speaker 1: What can I do for it? My name is Bruce Calendar,
Speaker 1: has been a bit of a stir aboard, and the
Speaker 1: conductor made me a kind of deputy to make an inquiry.
Speaker 1: May I come in? Of course? Thank you.
Speaker 2: I'm looking talk and roll neighbors. This is my wife. Well,
Speaker 2: this is the.
Speaker 1: Calendar.

Speaker 1: Well not right now, thank you?

Speaker 1: It seems that there was a jewel robbery in Sala Slaven.
Speaker 1: The thief was apprehended at the station, but not before
Speaker 1: he'd managed to stow the loop somewhere. The authorities believe
Speaker 1: that he may have put it in someone's baggage with
Speaker 1: the view toward recovering it sometime during the journey.
Speaker 4: Oh then you'll want to inspect the baggage.
Speaker 1: Oh no, no, no, I have no authority to do that.
Speaker 1: But if you will see for yourself so that I
Speaker 1: can report it to the conductor, I had done very much?
Speaker 2: Will it give be an eye of my belief?
Speaker 1: Or gird?
Speaker 2: And they haven't been out of our fight, survived at
Speaker 2: the station.
Speaker 1: But you won't mind making the inspection?
Speaker 2: Oh no, not at all, my dear Ferda. But I'm
Speaker 2: afraid you'll be wasting your time.

Speaker 1: a rosy cheek boy in a loof buffer uniform, proud
Speaker 1: arrogant who was super raced. Litana turned away. His face
Speaker 1: looked like it had been slapped hard. I stood there
Speaker 1: for a moment. It isn't very pleasant to see a
Speaker 1: man's world disintegrated.
Speaker 3: By the photograph.
Speaker 1: What happened? They're not the one? Oh now what? I
Speaker 1: don't know?
Speaker 2: I do. I'm jumping off the train, but why?
Speaker 1: But they're after me?
Speaker 2: Not if I'm off the training state.
Speaker 1: All set down? You're making a fool of yourself. How
Speaker 1: do you propose to let him know you've jumped when
Speaker 1: we can't even locate him? I can't even die, nobly?
Speaker 1: Can I wait here for me? And where you're going
Speaker 1: to find Ditri? Mister calendar, I was on my way way.
Speaker 1: You know time the engineer must give us more time.
Speaker 1: You've won, or they've had to can the fire and
Speaker 1: run the train.
Speaker 2: But if the complete could.
Speaker 1: Just can the home kitty living a dialect family.
Speaker 2: Let now, have we got on too long time from the.

Speaker 2: Connor play but did trick.
Speaker 1: That's where it is. That's the only place that could be.

Speaker 2: But are you sure he's in there?
Speaker 1: I'm not sure he isn't in there. How will you
Speaker 1: find out? Well, I'm going to climb to the top
Speaker 1: of the car, moved down to the laboratory, smashed the
Speaker 1: window and shoot and I hope I hit him and
Speaker 1: that's a bomb.
Speaker 2: But if it does not, he then he will have
Speaker 2: kids in innocent men.
Speaker 1: And if it is and I don't shoot, over one
Speaker 1: hundred innocent people will be dead in five minutes.
Speaker 2: I don't know if I should permit it. After all,

Speaker 1: the shots to have you open the door, he'll disarm
Speaker 1: the bomb. That was that clear. He has mister Colin
Speaker 1: hurt and hurry. We only have four minutes. As they
Speaker 1: ran down the corridor, I turned and went to the
Speaker 1: door leading to the outside of the train, and there
Speaker 1: I took off my shoes and checked the cystol arms
Speaker 1: had given me. At any moment, I expected the train
Speaker 1: to start slowing down, which I knew must be followed
Speaker 1: by the glass. Until I got to the roof of
Speaker 1: the car, I didn't quite know how I was going
Speaker 1: to reach down and break the glass. But when I
Speaker 1: got there, I saw that this time the brake had
Speaker 1: come my way. This was an old relic that had
Speaker 1: the light sentence at each end of the car. Carefully
Speaker 1: so as not to betray any movement to the man,
Speaker 1: believe me, I booked one leg around to stand it
Speaker 1: and let myself ease down. That I hung there for
Speaker 1: the second. I that the man inside was the man.
Speaker 1: I thought this was my last chance.
Speaker 3: He had to be that.
Speaker 1: Suddenly there was a ship of wind, and I was
Speaker 1: almost blinded that the senders pouring out of the internal
Speaker 1: I saw an impasceptible shut. I go through the train
Speaker 1: as the brakes were a fire. The time was now.
Speaker 1: I raised my gun and hello, di trick. Everything cleaned up, Yes, mister,
Speaker 1: the passengers are still a little excited, and no doubt
Speaker 1: you shoot very straight.
