BCS Arm switch is on.
FLIGHT COM:
Okay, Victor.
B-52 PILOT:
Landing Rocket Arm switch is on.
Here comes the throttle.
Circuit breakers in.
STEVE:
We have separation.
B-52 PILOT:
Inboard and outboards are on.
I'm comin' forward with the side stick.
FLIGHT COM:
Looks good.
PILOT:
Ah, Roger.
STEVE:
I've got a blowout in damper three.
SR-71 PILOT:
Get your pitch to zero.
STEVE:
Pitch is out. I can't hold altitude!
B-52 PILOT: Correction. Alpha Hold is off.
Threat selector is emergency.
STEVE: Flight Com. I can't hold it!
She's breaking up! She's breaking...
ANNOUNCER:
Steve Austin. Astronaut.
A man barely alive.
Gentlemen, we can rebuild him.
We have the technology.
We have the capability
to make the world's first bionic man.
Steve Austin will be that man.
Better than he was before.
Better, stronger, faster.
(MAIN TITLE THEME)
CALLAHAN: Yeah, Mom, I'm back
in Mister Goldman's office.
Mmm, for about a month now.
Gene? Yeah, what about him?
I met him a couple months ago
at a party...
and I've been seeing him
very often ever since.
I'd say it was pretty serious.
We're more or less engaged.
A ring? No. Not yet.
But he did give me a really beautiful pendant
that belonged to his grandmother.
Yes, mom. Dentists still make
very good money...
and his work is steady.
Yeah. I know that.
I know you've gotta consider
all those things...
Mom, look, I've gotta go.
I'll talk to you later.
Hello, Colonel Austin.
Hello, Callahan.
Hey, good to have you back.
Thank you.
You changed your hair.
It's the new me.
Looks good.
Thank you.
Say, how's your mom?
You know. As concerned as ever.
(BUZZER)
OSCAR'S VOICE: Callahan?
Any word from Colonel Austin yet?
Oh, yes, Mr. Goldman.
He's standing right here.
Oh, good. Steve, come on in.
Mr. Goldman,
would you like some coffee?
Fine, Callahan, fine.
Hi, Steve. Good morning.
Good morning.
Come sit down.
You'll never guess
who called me today.
Oh, who?
Dr. Emil Losey.
Losey. Hey, how is that old guy?
Oh, he's fine. I miss him.
Especially his genius.
When he retired last year it was a...
Well, it was a great loss
to the department.
Yeah, I really miss him.
We had some great tennis matches.
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
OSCAR'S VOICE:
As you know, Steve, before he retired...
Losey was working on
a hydrogen fusion generator.
You know what success
in that field would mean.
STEVE'S VOICE:
What would that mean, Oscar?
The country that develops
hydrogen fusion...
would be the world's greatest power.
I know, Oscar. I just didn't
want to step on your lines.
You get such pleasure delivering them.
(CHUCKLES)
What's so funny about this?
Wait a minute.
This is a very serious matter.
I'm sorry, Oscar. You just take such
a wordy way to get to the point.
What did you call me in here for?
Last year, Losey was disappointed
with his experiments.
He wasn't getting anywhere.
He was tired, he...
He wanted to quit.
In fact, he wanted to retire.
But when he called me
this morning...
he said he developed
a major breakthrough on an idea...
and he was very
eager to start again.
Hmm.
Can I have a touch of cream?
But one thing, Steve, I want to
keep this whole thing a secret.
I want as few people as possible
in and out of the government...
to know that Losey
is working on this project.
Therefore, I want you to pick him up.
He lives in Maryland and I want you
to bring him here to Washington.
Why me?
Because he knows you,
respects you and frankly...
he requested you.
Okay. That's fine.
Where is he? Thank you.
OSCAR: He lives in Braxton, Maryland.
118 Willow Road.
Here's the address.
STEVE: That's only an hour’s drive.
OS CAR: Right.
Well, Agee, it looks like our
investment is beginning to pay off.
We're onto a big one.
Dr. Emil Losey.
118 Willow Road,
Braxton, Maryland.
You and your men
leave right away.
We've got to get to Losey
before Steve Austin does.
Here.
Don't worry. We will.
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
Yes?
Dr. Losey?
That's right.
My name is Louis. We're here
to take you to Washington.
But I expected someone else.
Yes, of course.
Steve Austin.
You see, Colonel Austin
had an important matter...
he had to take care of
immediately.
So, uh,
Mr. Goldman sent us.
I see.
We would like to get started
immediately, Doctor.
Very well, I'll get my bag.
Oh.
There we are.
Here, Doctor,
let me take those for you.
Oh, never mind.
I'm a lot stronger than I look.
Oh, I am getting careless.
Did you forget something, Doctor?
Yes. I forgot to see
your credentials.
Ah, of course.
Uh, I'll show them to you in the car.
We really have to get going, Doctor.
Uh, you show them to me now.
Doctor, we really
must get going.
Would you please get in the back seat
of the car, Doctor Losey?
(BIONIC EYE SOUND EFFECT)
(TIRES SCREECH)
(BIONIC SOUND EFFECT)
Whoa!
(BIONIC SOUND EFFECT)
Whoa!
Come on, Doctor.
My car, quick.
I don't understand any of this.
I don't understand it myself.
They say that you sent them.
I don't know who sent them...
but I didn't want to hang around
and find out.
One of them could've gotten in a lucky shot
and you're too valuable to lose, Doctor.
The things I saw you do back there.
The way you handled those men.
Well, I'll have to
explain that later, Doctor.
You don't have to explain it at all, Steven.
I've known Goldman was
experimenting with bionics.
I just didn't know he had gone this far.
Well, if anybody has a high enough security
clearance to know about it, you do.
A bionic man. Amazing.
Truly amazing.
No more amazing than what you can
accomplish in hydrogen fusion, Doctor.
Perhaps.
(PHONE RINGS)
Oscar Goldman's office.
Is he in, Callahan?
This is Steve.
Oh, I'm sorry, Colonel.
He's in with the Secretary.
All right, would you
give him a message?
Tell him I've got Dr. Losey and
I'm taking him to Safe House Baker.
Safe House Baker.
But tell him there was some trouble
and I have to talk to him about it tonight.
I'll come by his office as soon
as I make sure the Doctor is safe.
Very well, sir, I'll tell him.
Bye bye.
(PHONE RINGS)
Oscar Goldman's office.
Gene.
Yes, darling, I was just about ready
to leave for the evening.
I have to wait and make sure
my boss gets a very important message.
Why don't I meet you
at the restaurant when I can?
Fine. Okay, Darling.
Bye bye.
OSCAR: I tell you, Steve, this is serious.
This is serious business.
Oscar, they know about Dr. Losey...
knew where to find him,
knew I was on my way to get him.
(DIALING)
Can I speak to Tom Dempster,
please?
Hello, Tom.
This is Oscar Goldman.
I want you to get over here
and make a clean sweep.
We're looking for
a transmitting device.
No, no, no. Tonight.
Tonight, Tom.
I want you to check
every inch of this office.
Thank you.
I'll have them send a team
over to Losey's home.
Check the house, the phones.
Well, they may have gotten
their information from that end...
but it's more likely
they got it from here, Oscar.
OSCAR: Are you positive, Tom?
Mr. Goldman, we have the most
sophisticated sensing detectors...
in the entire world.
We spent the night here
combing this office and the outer office.
There's absolutely no way...
any information is being
transmitted from this location.
We also checked out
Dr. Losey's home.
It's clean, so is his telephone.
Thank you, Tom.
Okay. So long, Steve.
Thanks, Tom.
I was sure someone
bugged this place.
Tom knows his business.
Oscar, somebody talked.
Nobody, Steve.
Nobody knew that Dr. Losey called here
except you and me and...
Good morning.
Can I fix you some fresh coffee?
No thank you, Callahan. We're in
the middle of an important discussion.
That's all.
Beautiful morning though.
Don't you think?
Couldn't be.
Well, I know it wasn't me.
I'm pretty sure it wasn't you.
Well, thanks a lot.
Callahan.
Callahan wouldn't
discuss our work here.
What about her mother?
She always talks to her mother.
Tom just said he checked her phone.
It isn't tapped either.
What about her home phone?
Maybe they bugged her place at home?
Steve, somebody knew.
Somebody knew in advance...
that Callahan was due
to work here for a month.
They bugged her apartment.
She comes home at night, picks up
the phone, talks to her mother...
tells her what's going on
around here.
I'm gonna have Dempster
check her place.
Oh, no. Hold on, Oscar.
It's gotta be checked, Steve.
Not Dempster. Not his men.
Let me do it.
You? Why you?
Well, you know how fond
we are of Callahan.
If she found out we sent a team
of security experts...
into her apartment, she'd be hurt.
Well, what difference
does it make who does it?
Well, see, if I do it, then I can explain
the whole thing to her later.
Well, I'm sure her apartment
is well locked.
I can get in.
(HANGS UP)
You know, Steve, I didn't think that
I created a Six Million Dollar Man...
so that he could check
apartment bugs.
Well, there's a part of me
that you didn't create...
that makes me wanna
handle it myself.
Alright, I understand.
You can pick up a portable
sensor meter from Dempster.
Thanks.
Pretty flowers, Callahan.
Thank you.
You leaving so soon, Colonel?
Yeah, I got a busy day.
I was curious, Colonel.
When I came to work this morning...
there were some men carrying out
the strangest looking gadgets.
Oh, really?
Kinda like
electronic vacuum sweepers.
Well, everything around here is
pretty well advanced, Callahan.
Gotta keep things tidy.
See you later.
Bye.
Bye.
(BIONIC SOUND EFFECT)
(DOG BARKS)
Hey, fella. Come here.
Let me talk to you.
Come on.
Hey, come here, fella.
You weren't here
the last time I was here, huh?
Well, I'm friendly, you hear?
I got some work to do.
Why don't you sit right here
and behave yourself, okay?
Atta boy.
(ELECTRICAL SHOCKS, DOG WHINES)
Hope you didn't break a tooth.
(WHIMPERS)
I thought we were friends.
(WHIMPERS)
(STATIC)
Just about through, pal.
(SOFT BARK)
(APPROACHING FOOTSTEPS)
(KEYS JINGLE)
(BARKING)
Hello, Pierre.
I come home to fix your lunch, baby.
(WHINES)
Colonel Austin.
Hi, Callahan.
What is this, Colonel?
CALLAHAN'S VOICE:
What's going on?
STEVE'S VOICE: You just get a hold
of yourself I can explain everything.
CALLAHAN: Colonel Austin, I just don't
understand what you're doing here.
STEVE: I won't lie to you, Callahan.
I came to your apartment
to check for a bug.
A bug?
What're you talking about?
A transmitting device.
Hidden microphone.
Sometimes as small
as the tip of a pencil.
Oh, my dear.
What would such a thing
be doing in my apartment?
Callahan, someone's been
passing on secret information.
Information that only Oscar,
you and I would know about.
Really?
Really.
We thought maybe somebody had
bugged or wired your apartment.
But even if they bugged my apartment,
what would they find out?
Well, Oscar thought that maybe when
you talk to your mother on the phone...
that you told her about things
that went on in the office.
Colonel Austin, I would never reveal
secrets I learned on the job.
Not to anyone.
Not even to my mother.
That's what I thought, Callahan.
But you still came here to check it out.
Isn't that so?
Oscar insisted that
your apartment be checked.
I thought that it would be better if I did it
rather than some strangers.
That's very kind of you, Colonel.
Now I insist upon something.
What's that?
A lie detector test.
Callahan, there's no need for that.
I've checked your apartment.
There's no bug here.
But the fact that I am the least bit suspect,
Colonel, that upsets me very much.
Now I want a lie detector test
to determine whether I've ever divulged...
secret information to anyone.
Well, there's no need for that.
I believe there is.
You do?
Yes. I want you and Mr. Goldman
to be positively sure of my loyalty.
Well...
Do I get the lie detector test,
Colonel Austin?
STEVE:
If you insist, Callahan, why not?
This Colonel Austin...
STEVE: Come on, let's go, Callahan.
I hope he doesn't get too close
to what he's looking for.
For our sake... as well as his.
Okay. You're all set.
Steve, you wanna ask the questions?
Sure.
Just keep them general
for the most part.
Then add whatever
you think is pertinent.
Why don't you ask me straight off,
Colonel Austin?
Am I a traitor?
Callahan, no one thinks
you're a traitor.
We're running.
Alright, what's your name?
Peggy Callahan.
STEVE: Who do you work for?
CALLAHAN: A very suspicious man
named Oscar Goldman.
Do you like your work?
Well, I did up until about
half an hour ago.
Do you ever discuss
your work with anyone?
I discuss my work with no one.
You didn't have a dog last time
I visited your apartment.
When did you get the dog?
A few weeks ago.
What, decided
you needed company?
No. Pierre was a gift.
From Gene.
Gene?
Dr. Gene Finney.
CALLAHAN: My fiancée.
STEVE: A doctor, huh?
CALLAHAN: Well, he's a dentist.
Tell me something, Callahan...
are you in love?
Very much.
Well, good for you.
Do you ever discuss your work
with this Dr. Finney?
Never.
I told him it was a classified job.
That's all.
Tom?
She's answered
these questions truthfully.
Well, I'm satisfied.
STEVE: Are you, Callahan?
CALLAHAN: Yeah. The point is
will Mr. Goldman be satisfied?
Or will he still suspect me?
Look, Oscar's a cautious man,
but he's not bull headed.
Are you okay, Callahan?
Yeah.
I'm not angry anymore.
I understand how careful
you have to be.
I knew you'd understand.
Hey, I'd like to meet
your fiancee sometime.
To check him out?
No. To congratulate him.
I usually stop by his office
on the way back from feeding Pierre.
We still have 15 minutes.
Well, let's go.
Thanks, Tom.
Okay.
Thank you.
Alright.
Bye.
Bye, now.
This is a real pleasure, Colonel Austin.
Peggy talks about you all the time.
Oh, really?
The fact that I know you
isn't classified, is it?
Hardly.
Gene, will you please tell him,
do I ever talk about my work?
No, never.
See?
I believe you, Callahan.
Well, if you'll excuse me, Colonel.
I've gotta get back to my patient.
Oh, I didn't mean to keep you, honey.
I just wanted you two to meet.
I just wanted to congratulate you.
Thank you.
Maybe we could all
have dinner some night.
Swell.
Oh, what about Friday night?
I'll cook.
I'm a very good cook.
Oh, she is that.
Friday night it is.
Good.
Good meeting you, Colonel.
You bet.
Bye.
I'll talk to you later?
Yeah.
What do you think?
He seems like a great guy.
He is. Well, he hasn't given me
a ring yet, but he gave me this.
Belonged to his grandmother.
Oh, that's very nice.
I'm glad you're happy, Callahan.
And I'll say one thing about Gene.
He's got great taste.
You say the nicest things, Colonel.
Dr. Gene Finney.
F-I-N-N-E-Y?
STEVE: Uh-huh.
Alright. I'll run a security check
on his background.
Look, as far as I'm concerned,
Callahan is clean.
Steve, as long as there's a leak,
I don't trust anybody.
Suit yourself.
Where are you going?
Down to Dempster's lab.
I wanna check his sweep records.
(PHONE RINGS)
Oscar Goldman's office.
Colonel Austin, it's for you.
Thank you, Callahan.
Hello?
Hello, Steven.
This is Dr. Losey.
I've called to ask your help.
Well, I'll do what I can.
(BUZZER)
OSCAR: Callahan? Come in, please.
And bring your book.
Yes, sir.
Go ahead, Doctor.
Steven, I hate to bother you,
but I do have an equipment problem.
Problem?
It's this portable computer.
It just doesn't seem to hold steady
on vital matters.
We'll get whatever you need, Doctor.
What I need is to use the
X One Zero model.
I see.
Actually, I only need about one hour
a day on the big machine.
I know they have one
in the Mason building.
Well, we did want you to stay there,
Doctor, where we know you're safe.
What good is my being safe
if I can't do my work?
Okay. I'll speak to Oscar about it.
If I could go this afternoon,
and every day for just one hour.
It's very important to me.
I'll see what I can do.
Is everything else all right?
Oh, yes, yes. I'm very comfortable.
I do miss our tennis, though.
Well, maybe we can find time later on.
I'll let you know what Oscar says.
Thank you, Steven. Bye.
And in reply to your request for further
information on the Jamison Project...
what I will need is more details...
Yes, Steve?
Dr. Losey is unhappy.
What about?
He needs to use one of your special
computers, the X One Zero.
OSCAR: The only one we have
is in the Mason Building Lab.
STEVE: Right. He'd like permission
to go there every day...
for about an hour
starting this afternoon.
Well, we can't very well
take the lab to him.
Nope.
I guess it's alright.
George? This is Oscar
Goldman.
I give permission for Dr. Losey
to go to the Mason Building Lab.
OSCAR: Yeah, anytime.
This afternoon would be alright.
Right.
(HANGS UP)
Done.
AGEE: Pardon me, Gentlemen...
Get out of the way, please,
we're government agents.
Oh, yes. I'm aware of that.
I think you should be aware
that at this moment...
a high powered rifle is aimed
directly at Dr. Losey.
Right there.
Now, then, Dr. Losey
will come with us...
and you will not follow.
If you do, I assure you
Dr. Losey will be killed immediately.
Okay?
Okay.
Doctor?
(TIRES SCREECH)
They what?
I don't believe it!
Alright, you get over here.
I want a full report.
They grabbed Dr. Losey.
What? Where?
In front of the Mason Lab!
They were waiting for him!
This phone is bugged, Steve.
You understand me? Bugged!
Dempster says no.
(HANGS UP)
I know the only way to find Losey is
to plug this leak and then try and trace it.
There were only three people who knew
that Losey was going to that lab.
You, me and George.
And Callahan.
I know, I know. I said that
she couldn't possibly be involved.
But she's been in this room every time
secret plans have been mentioned.
What are you getting at, Steve?
A bug, a plant.
Not in her office,
not in her apartment...
but on her person.
That's possible.
That pendant. That pendant she wears
that she says her boyfriend gave her.
She wears that every day.
It's big enough for a transmitter.
You're right.
You could be right, Steve.
It's a hunch.
A hunch? Hunches are all
we have to go on.
Okay. She may not like it,
but it's gotta be done.
Get her in here.
Give her some work that'll keep her
normally quiet for a while.
(DIALING)
Callahan! Um... Callahan.
Would you... would you
please come in here?
Thank you.
Callahan.
You won't need that notebook.
Now, sit down right here.
I'd like you to read this report.
It'll take about ten minutes.
Whatever you say, sir.
Well, I better be going, Oscar.
See you later, Callahan.
Alright, Steve.
Well, hello again.
This room is absolutely bug proof,
right, Dempster?
Right.
The walls are laminations
of copper mesh, negatively grounded...
and the space is flooded
with high frequency warbler signals.
No sound can get in or out.
(HUM)
HECTOR: Something's happened
to the transmission, Agee.
AGEE: What?
You can talk now, Callahan.
Oh, that's good.
Because I'd like to know
why we're playing charades.
Well, because I think the bug
we're looking for is on your person.
Oh, no, Colonel. Come on.
We've been all through that.
I'm sorry, Callahan, it's a hunch
that we have to investigate.
Now, can I see
that pendant, please?
Um, Gene gave me this pendant.
I know. Take it off
and hand it to me.
Oh, I see. Now you suspect
my fiancee, huh?
Look, I have to suspect anybody
that's given you anything lately.
Let me have that.
You're gonna be very sorry...
and you're gonna see
this is all very foolish.
Yes, yes.
I know. Maybe.
(BUZZING)
Tom?
Well?
There's no transmitter in here, Steve.
Are you certain?
I'm positive.
This baby would pick it up in a second.
There.
Thank you. You satisfied?
Not quite.
I thought you believed in me.
Callahan, it's not you, it's just that anything
given to you lately could be a bug.
Oh, that's absolutely ridiculous.
I'm sorry, Callahan,
but I have to ask.
That watch.
Did Gene give you that watch?
He did not.
I bought this watch for myself
about a year ago.
We'll have to check it out
anyway. Tom?
(BUZZING)
Nothing.
See?
What else did he give you?
Colonel Austin? Colonel?
Can I put your mind at ease?
Besides the candy
and the flowers...
the only thing that
Dr. Gene Finney has given me...
is a dog and a lovely pendant.
Unless you want to count
some free dental work?
Dental work?
What kind of dental work?
He filled a cavity.
In my lower right molar.
What do you think, Tom?
It's certainly possible.
He... What are you talking about?
Open your mouth, Callahan.
I will not!
Look, if you want to prove your fiancee
is innocent, open your mouth.
No, I will not. I will not do anything
absolutely ridiculous like that.
Open your mouth.
(LOUD BEEPING)
It's a bug, alright.
Jackpot!
No!
TOM: A very powerful transmitter.
What are you saying?
That's impossible.
Callahan, you've been transmitting
top secret information...
and your boyfriend set up
the whole thing.
I... I just can't believe that.
Tom, is there any way
you can prove it to her?
I think so. Over here.
We just got this new
frequency range finder.
(WARBLING TONE)
You want to sit down, Callahan?
Yeah.
Once I know the exact frequency...
I can adjust any receiver
to pick up the transmission.
Colonel Austin, this can't be true.
I mean... Not Gene.
He can't be using me.
I'm sorry, Callahan.
(WITH FAST ECHO)
There. Now, this receiver is adjusted
to the right frequency.
Miss Callahan,
would you whisper something?
(WITH FAST ECHO)
Whisper. What shall I whisper?
It's picking up my every word.
And anything said in your presence.
Shut it off, Tom.
Oh...
Hey, where's that Yankee
backbone, huh?
No. I was just worried about my mother.
She's gonna be so unhappy.
Yeah, well, I'm worried about Dr. Losey.
He's been kidnapped.
Am I to blame for that too?
No, but your dentist friend is.
Now, whoever's been listening can't hear
what's being said in this particular room.
I want to make one thing clear.
I want you to act completely natural
when we leave this room.
You're not to mention the tooth
or the transmitter. You understand?
Yeah. What about Gene?
I'll take care of Dr. Gene Finney.
AGEE: Getting anything yet?
HECTOR: Yes. Whatever the
interference was, it's gone now.
Hello.
Hello.
I'd like to see Doctor Finney.
Right away, please, it's important.
I'm sorry,
the Doctor is out this afternoon.
Out? Where did he go?
I have no idea. He just left.
He didn't say where he was going.
Thank you.
(LOUD SNAP)
(PHONE RINGS)
Hello. Dr. Goldman's office...
Mr. Goldman's office.
Hi, Darling. This is Gene.
Oh.
I'm down at Alfonse's.
Wondered if you could
get away and have some coffee.
I'm sorry. I don't think
I can get away right now.
And on second thought, maybe
I can get somebody to sit in for me.
And, um...
I've got a few things
I want to say to you, Dr. Finney.
So you wait for me, okay?
I'll be there.
Bye-bye.
GENE: Hello.
Something wrong?
I'd like a drink, please.
In the afternoon?
Yeah. Wine cooler on the rocks.
Then we can talk later?
Okay. Waiter?
Hello, Colonel Austin.
Can I help you?
Hello.
Where's Miss Callahan?
Oh, she went to meet
her boyfriend.
Said it was very important.
She did? Did Mr. Goldman
know she was leaving?
I don't really know.
Well, tell him.
And also tell him to meet me
in Tom Dempster's lab right away.
Yes, sir.
Darling, something is wrong,
I know it.
Yeah, you always were
very bright.
What is it?
I came to say goodbye.
Good bye?
Yes, I no longer wish to be
engaged to you.
Peggy, I don't understand.
Please, wait
until the waiter leaves.
She's acting strange.
She might be onto us.
It's possible.
They're at Alfonse's.
Take Rusty and pick them up.
The dentist too?
Yes. Both of them.
We've got the doctor,
now we cover our tracks.
Take them to the garage
where we're holding Losey.
I'll be with you in a while.
Give me a half an hour.
Tom, will this receiver still pick up
Callahan's voice?
Sure. It's tuned to
her frequency.
But you can't pick it up
in this room.
Thanks.
I'm taking it with me.
Where did Callahan go, Steve?
I'll explain
on the way to the car.
Darling,
is it something I've done?
Don't you know
what you've done, Gene?
Well, nothing to
make you so upset, no.
Let me put it to you this way.
I am sorry I rushed into
this relationship.
I was brought up in a
much more reserved manner.
Hey...
we love each other.
Do we, Gene?
Do we really?
GENE'S VOICE: Peggy, I wish you'd
explain this sudden change of heart.
CALLAHAN'S VOICE:
I'd like another drink, please.
Could... Could you get the waiter?
Sounds like it's in
a bar or a restaurant.
And if she walked to meet him,
it's gotta be nearby.
There's sure a lot of bars
around here, though.
We'll just have to keep listening.
Hope for a clue.
I'd like another.
Now that's quite enough, Peggy.
It gives me the courage, Gene...
the courage to tell you
what I really think of you.
If you only knew how happy my mother
has been for the past few weeks.
What has your mother
got to do with this?
My mother is the only person
in the whole world...
who loves me completely.
She'll be broken hearted
when she learns about you.
Learns what about me?
That you are a cad.
Perhaps the caddiest cad
I've ever met.
GENE: Peggy, I wish you'd explain
what you're talking about.
CALLAHAN: I bet you do.
Afternoon, Doctor.
What are you doing here?
I was told to pick up you
and your girlfriend.
AGEE: Shall we go?
Oh, someone else
has been listening.
CALLAHAN: I'm not going anywhere.
Lady...
I've have a gun in my pocket.
Now get up and walk to the door...
or it might just go off.
We better do as he says, Peggy.
HOST: Alfonse, telephone.
HOST: Alfonse, telephone please.
Alfonse's, that's over on fourth.
Five blocks west of here.
(TIRES SCREECH)
(TIRES SCREECH)
AGEE: Let's go. The garage.
Which garage?
We're coming up to Fourth.
We'll just have to keep cruising
and hope for some more information.
Peggy, I'm sorry.
Yeah, now, you're sorry.
A lot of good that's
gonna do either of us.
Oh, Gene, I wish you just could've been
a plain old honest dentist.
It takes a lot of money
to set up a private practice.
So much, so I was sure
I'd never make it...
until their offer came along.
Well, I was wrong.
I know that.
I'm truly sorry
you're involved in this.
I suppose you really are
in love with me?
Peggy, I was
pretending at first...
but you're quite a woman.
I think I really did begin
to fall in love with you.
Don't make any
confessions, Gene.
Remember?
Your boss can hear every word.
GENE: I don't care.
Oh, come on, Callahan.
Tell me something.
GENE: You are right, though.
We never did have much privacy.
He's got the one receiver
that could pick up every word.
Now, this receiver is adjusted
to the right frequency.
GENE: What is it, Peggy?
Nothing.
Nothing.
(CLEARS THROAT)
I was just noticing that I used to live
about a half a block from here.
On Ramparts Street.
Ramparts Street.
They're on Ramparts Street.
That's two blocks over.
Wait. She never lived
on Ramparts Street.
She's playing a hunch.
Come on, Callahan. Come on.
Tell me, Gene, how much did you get
for working with them?
More than $5,000?
Much more than that.
CALLAHAN'S VOICE:
How much more than $5, 000?
She's gotta be telling us
they're past the 5000 block.
We're heading in the
wrong direction.
Alright, you're clear to turn.
(TIRES SQUEAL)
Hello. Get me
Fred Brown, please.
Fred?
This is Oscar Goldman.
We're gonna need some help.
Will you stand by, please?
(HONKS HORN TWICE)
Why are we stopping here?
Please, lady. Don't be stupid.
You know why.
Well, Acme Garage.
I never thought I'd end my days
in such a dreary place.
Fred. Acme garage on Ramparts street.
Bring a squad.
Well, Dr. Finney.
And this is the young lady.
Very attractive.
You had no reason
to bring her here.
Oh, but I do.
We're all leaving the city
in that van...
and you two are going
to accompany us.
At least, uh, part of the way.
HECTOR'S VOICE: Agee, put them in
the van along with Dr. Losey.
While we're waiting for the men,
I'll take a look.
Good.

Callahan, are you alright?
Doctor?
Oh, I'm fine, Steven.
(DOOR OPENS)
Peggy. Peggy?
I just wanna say, uh... Well, I...
There's nothing to be said, Gene.
It's your loss, Finney.
Lovely lady, lovely smile.
(BAR PIANO PLAYS)
STEVE: What's the matter, Callahan?
The food not good?
CALLAHAN: I'm just...
(SIGHS)
I can't enjoy anything.
Why?
It was hard enough,
going to that dentist...
having that bug removed.
Now seeing all these smiling faces.
Callahan, things aren't that bad.
No?
How would you feel, Colonel,
if you had resolved...
to never again allow romance
to enter your life?
You've done all that?
Decidedly.
We Callahans learn from experience,
my father used to tell me...
Steve?
Hey, Ted.
Uh, Ted Harter, Miss Callahan.
Hi.
Miss Callahan.
I've heard the name.
Um, may I join you?
Uh, not me.
I've gotta get back.
Miss Callahan?
How about you?
Yeah.
I got plenty of time.
You two have fun here.
Well, may I buy you a drink?
I'll be back in a minute, okay?
Colonel Austin?
Yeah?
That man, Ted?
Is he alright?
Is he alright?
Yeah, well, what I mean is,
is he security cleared?
Callahan, go in peace.
He works for security.
Thanks.

Steve Austin. Astronaut.
A man barely alive.
Gentlemen, we can rebuild him.
We have the technology.
We have the capability
to make the world's first bionic man.
Steve Austin will be that man.
Better than he was before.
Better, stronger, faster.
(MAIN TITLE THEME)
CALLAHAN: Yeah, Mom, I'm back
in Mister Goldman's office.
Mmm, for about a month now.
Gene? Yeah, what about him?
I met him a couple months ago
at a party...
and I've been seeing him
very often ever since.
I'd say it was pretty serious.
We're more or less engaged.
A ring? No. Not yet.
But he did give me a really beautiful pendant
that belonged to his grandmother.
Yes, mom. Dentists still make
very good money...
and his work is steady.
Yeah. I know that.
I know you've gotta consider
all those things...
Mom, look, I've gotta go.
I'll talk to you later.
Hello, Colonel Austin.
Hello, Callahan.
Hey, good to have you back.
Thank you.
You changed your hair.
It's the new me.
Looks good.
Thank you.
Say, how's your mom?
You know. As concerned as ever.
(BUZZER)
OSCAR'S VOICE: Callahan?
Any word from Colonel Austin yet?
Oh, yes, Mr. Goldman.
He's standing right here.
Oh, good. Steve, come on in.
Mr. Goldman,
would you like some coffee?
Fine, Callahan, fine.
Hi, Steve. Good morning.
Good morning.
Come sit down.
You'll never guess
who called me today.
Oh, who?
Dr. Emil Losey.
Losey. Hey, how is that old guy?
Oh, he's fine. I miss him.
Especially his genius.
When he retired last year it was a...
Well, it was a great loss
to the department.
Yeah, I really miss him.
We had some great tennis matches.
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
OSCAR'S VOICE:
As you know, Steve, before he retired...
Losey was working on
a hydrogen fusion generator.
You know what success
in that field would mean.
STEVE'S VOICE:
What would that mean, Oscar?
The country that develops
hydrogen fusion...
would be the world's greatest power.
I know, Oscar. I just didn't
want to step on your lines.
You get such pleasure delivering them.
(CHUCKLES)
What's so funny about this?
Wait a minute.
This is a very serious matter.
I'm sorry, Oscar. You just take such
a wordy way to get to the point.
What did you call me in here for?
Last year, Losey was disappointed
with his experiments.
He wasn't getting anywhere.
He was tired, he...
He wanted to quit.
In fact, he wanted to retire.
But when he called me
this morning...
he said he developed
a major breakthrough on an idea...
and he was very
eager to start again.
Hmm.
Can I have a touch of cream?
But one thing, Steve, I want to
keep this whole thing a secret.
I want as few people as possible
in and out of the government...
to know that Losey
is working on this project.
Therefore, I want you to pick him up.
He lives in Maryland and I want you
to bring him here to Washington.
Why me?
Because he knows you,
respects you and frankly...
he requested you.
Okay. That's fine.
Where is he? Thank you.
OSCAR: He lives in Braxton, Maryland.
118 Willow Road.
Here's the address.
STEVE: That's only an hour’s drive.
OS CAR: Right.
Well, Agee, it looks like our
investment is beginning to pay off.
We're onto a big one.
Dr. Emil Losey.
118 Willow Road,
Braxton, Maryland.
You and your men
leave right away.
We've got to get to Losey
before Steve Austin does.
Here.
Don't worry. We will.
(DRAMATIC MUSIC)
Yes?
Dr. Losey?
That's right.
My name is Louis. We're here
to take you to Washington.
But I expected someone else.
Yes, of course.
Steve Austin.
You see, Colonel Austin
had an important matter...
he had to take care of
immediately.
So, uh,
Mr. Goldman sent us.
I see.
We would like to get started
immediately, Doctor.
Very well, I'll get my bag.
Oh.
There we are.
Here, Doctor,
let me take those for you.
Oh, never mind.
I'm a lot stronger than I look.
Oh, I am getting careless.
Did you forget something, Doctor?
Yes. I forgot to see
your credentials.
Ah, of course.
Uh, I'll show them to you in the car.
We really have to get going, Doctor.
Uh, you show them to me now.
Doctor, we really
must get going.
Would you please get in the back seat
of the car, Doctor Losey?
(BIONIC EYE SOUND EFFECT)
(TIRES SCREECH)
(BIONIC SOUND EFFECT)
Whoa!
(BIONIC SOUND EFFECT)
Whoa!
Come on, Doctor.
My car, quick.
I don't understand any of this.
I don't understand it myself.
They say that you sent them.
I don't know who sent them...
but I didn't want to hang around
and find out.
One of them could've gotten in a lucky shot
and you're too valuable to lose, Doctor.
The things I saw you do back there.
The way you handled those men.
Well, I'll have to
explain that later, Doctor.
You don't have to explain it at all, Steven.
I've known Goldman was
experimenting with bionics.
I just didn't know he had gone this far.
Well, if anybody has a high enough security
clearance to know about it, you do.
A bionic man. Amazing.
Truly amazing.
No more amazing than what you can
accomplish in hydrogen fusion, Doctor.
Perhaps.
(PHONE RINGS)
Oscar Goldman's office.
Is he in, Callahan?
This is Steve.
Oh, I'm sorry, Colonel.
He's in with the Secretary.
All right, would you
give him a message?
Tell him I've got Dr. Losey and
I'm taking him to Safe House Baker.
Safe House Baker.
But tell him there was some trouble
and I have to talk to him about it tonight.
I'll come by his office as soon
as I make sure the Doctor is safe.
Very well, sir, I'll tell him.
Bye bye.
(PHONE RINGS)
Oscar Goldman's office.
Gene.
Yes, darling, I was just about ready
to leave for the evening.
I have to wait and make sure
my boss gets a very important message.
Why don't I meet you
at the restaurant when I can?
Fine. Okay, Darling.
Bye bye.
OSCAR: I tell you, Steve, this is serious.
This is serious business.
Oscar, they know about Dr. Losey...
knew where to find him,
knew I was on my way to get him.
(DIALING)
Can I speak to Tom Dempster,
please?
Hello, Tom.
This is Oscar Goldman.
I want you to get over here
and make a clean sweep.
We're looking for
a transmitting device.
No, no, no. Tonight.
Tonight, Tom.
I want you to check
every inch of this office.
Thank you.
I'll have them send a team
over to Losey's home.
Check the house, the phones.
Well, they may have gotten
their information from that end...
but it's more likely
they got it from here, Oscar.
OSCAR: Are you positive, Tom?
Mr. Goldman, we have the most
sophisticated sensing detectors...
in the entire world.
We spent the night here
combing this office and the outer office.
There's absolutely no way...
any information is being
transmitted from this location.
We also checked out
Dr. Losey's home.
It's clean, so is his telephone.
Thank you, Tom.
Okay. So long, Steve.
Thanks, Tom.
I was sure someone
bugged this place.
Tom knows his business.
Oscar, somebody talked.
Nobody, Steve.
Nobody knew that Dr. Losey called here
except you and me and...
Good morning.
Can I fix you some fresh coffee?
No thank you, Callahan. We're in
the middle of an important discussion.
That's all.
Beautiful morning though.
Don't you think?
Couldn't be.
Well, I know it wasn't me.
I'm pretty sure it wasn't you.
Well, thanks a lot.
Callahan.
Callahan wouldn't
discuss our work here.
What about her mother?
She always talks to her mother.
Tom just said he checked her phone.
It isn't tapped either.
What about her home phone?
Maybe they bugged her place at home?
Steve, somebody knew.
Somebody knew in advance...
that Callahan was due
to work here for a month.
They bugged her apartment.
She comes home at night, picks up
the phone, talks to her mother...
tells her what's going on
around here.
I'm gonna have Dempster
check her place.
Oh, no. Hold on, Oscar.
It's gotta be checked, Steve.
Not Dempster. Not his men.
Let me do it.
You? Why you?
Well, you know how fond
we are of Callahan.
If she found out we sent a team
of security experts...
into her apartment, she'd be hurt.
Well, what difference
does it make who does it?
Well, see, if I do it, then I can explain
the whole thing to her later.
Well, I'm sure her apartment
is well locked.
I can get in.
(HANGS UP)
You know, Steve, I didn't think that
I created a Six Million Dollar Man...
so that he could check
apartment bugs.
Well, there's a part of me
that you didn't create...
that makes me wanna
handle it myself.
Alright, I understand.
You can pick up a portable
sensor meter from Dempster.
Thanks.
Pretty flowers, Callahan.
Thank you.
You leaving so soon, Colonel?
Yeah, I got a busy day.
I was curious, Colonel.
When I came to work this morning...
there were some men carrying out
the strangest looking gadgets.
Oh, really?
Kinda like
electronic vacuum sweepers.
Well, everything around here is
pretty well advanced, Callahan.
Gotta keep things tidy.
See you later.
Bye.
Bye.
(BIONIC SOUND EFFECT)
(DOG BARKS)
Hey, fella. Come here.
Let me talk to you.
Come on.
Hey, come here, fella.
You weren't here
the last time I was here, huh?
Well, I'm friendly, you hear?
I got some work to do.
Why don't you sit right here
and behave yourself, okay?
Atta boy.
(ELECTRICAL SHOCKS, DOG WHINES)
Hope you didn't break a tooth.

Hello, Pierre.
I come home to fix your lunch, baby.
(WHINES)
Colonel Austin.
Hi, Callahan.
What is this, Colonel?
CALLAHAN'S VOICE:
What's going on?
STEVE'S VOICE: You just get a hold
of yourself I can explain everything.
CALLAHAN: Colonel Austin, I just don't
understand what you're doing here.
STEVE: I won't lie to you, Callahan.
I came to your apartment
to check for a bug.
A bug?
What're you talking about?
A transmitting device.
Hidden microphone.
Sometimes as small
as the tip of a pencil.
Oh, my dear.
What would such a thing
be doing in my apartment?
Callahan, someone's been
passing on secret information.
Information that only Oscar,
you and I would know about.
Really?
Really.
We thought maybe somebody had
bugged or wired your apartment.
But even if they bugged my apartment,
what would they find out?
Well, Oscar thought that maybe when
you talk to your mother on the phone...
that you told her about things
that went on in the office.
Colonel Austin, I would never reveal
secrets I learned on the job.
Not to anyone.
Not even to my mother.
That's what I thought, Callahan.
But you still came here to check it out.
Isn't that so?
Oscar insisted that
your apartment be checked.
I thought that it would be better if I did it
rather than some strangers.
That's very kind of you, Colonel.
Now I insist upon something.
What's that?
A lie detector test.
Callahan, there's no need for that.
I've checked your apartment.
There's no bug here.
But the fact that I am the least bit suspect,
Colonel, that upsets me very much.
Now I want a lie detector test
to determine whether I've ever divulged...
secret information to anyone.
Well, there's no need for that.
I believe there is.
You do?
Yes. I want you and Mr. Goldman
to be positively sure of my loyalty.
Well...
Do I get the lie detector test,
Colonel Austin?
STEVE:
If you insist, Callahan, why not?
This Colonel Austin...
STEVE: Come on, let's go, Callahan.
I hope he doesn't get too close
to what he's looking for.
For our sake... as well as his.
Okay. You're all set.
Steve, you wanna ask the questions?
Sure.
Just keep them general
for the most part.
Then add whatever
you think is pertinent.
Why don't you ask me straight off,
Colonel Austin?
Am I a traitor?
Callahan, no one thinks
you're a traitor.
We're running.
Alright, what's your name?
Peggy Callahan.
STEVE: Who do you work for?
CALLAHAN: A very suspicious man
named Oscar Goldman.
Do you like your work?
Well, I did up until about
half an hour ago.
Do you ever discuss
your work with anyone?
I discuss my work with no one.
You didn't have a dog last time
I visited your apartment.
When did you get the dog?
A few weeks ago.
What, decided
you needed company?
No. Pierre was a gift.
From Gene.
Gene?
Dr. Gene Finney.
CALLAHAN: My fiancée.
STEVE: A doctor, huh?
CALLAHAN: Well, he's a dentist.
Tell me something, Callahan...
are you in love?
Very much.
Well, good for you.
Do you ever discuss your work
with this Dr. Finney?
Never.
I told him it was a classified job.
That's all.
Tom?
She's answered
these questions truthfully.
Well, I'm satisfied.
STEVE: Are you, Callahan?
CALLAHAN: Yeah. The point is
will Mr. Goldman be satisfied?
Or will he still suspect me?
Look, Oscar's a cautious man,
but he's not bull headed.
Are you okay, Callahan?
Yeah.
I'm not angry anymore.
I understand how careful
you have to be.
I knew you'd understand.
Hey, I'd like to meet
your fiancee sometime.
To check him out?
No. To congratulate him.
I usually stop by his office
on the way back from feeding Pierre.
We still have 15 minutes.
Well, let's go.
Thanks, Tom.
Okay.
Thank you.
Alright.
Bye.
Bye, now.
This is a real pleasure, Colonel Austin.
Peggy talks about you all the time.
Oh, really?
The fact that I know you
isn't classified, is it?
Hardly.
Gene, will you please tell him,
do I ever talk about my work?
No, never.
See?
I believe you, Callahan.
Well, if you'll excuse me, Colonel.
I've gotta get back to my patient.
Oh, I didn't mean to keep you, honey.
I just wanted you two to meet.
I just wanted to congratulate you.
Thank you.
Maybe we could all
have dinner some night.
Swell.
Oh, what about Friday night?
I'll cook.
I'm a very good cook.
Oh, she is that.
Friday night it is.
Good.
Good meeting you, Colonel.
You bet.
Bye.
I'll talk to you later?
Yeah.
What do you think?
He seems like a great guy.
He is. Well, he hasn't given me
a ring yet, but he gave me this.
Belonged to his grandmother.
Oh, that's very nice.
I'm glad you're happy, Callahan.
And I'll say one thing about Gene.
He's got great taste.
You say the nicest things, Colonel.
Dr. Gene Finney.
F-I-N-N-E-Y?
STEVE: Uh-huh.
Alright. I'll run a security check
on his background.
Look, as far as I'm concerned,
Callahan is clean.
Steve, as long as there's a leak,
I don't trust anybody.
Suit yourself.
Where are you going?
Down to Dempster's lab.
I wanna check his sweep records.
(PHONE RINGS)
Oscar Goldman's office.
Colonel Austin, it's for you.
Thank you, Callahan.
Hello?
Hello, Steven.
This is Dr. Losey.
I've called to ask your help.
Well, I'll do what I can.
(BUZZER)
OSCAR: Callahan? Come in, please.
And bring your book.
Yes, sir.
Go ahead, Doctor.
Steven, I hate to bother you,
but I do have an equipment problem.
Problem?
It's this portable computer.
It just doesn't seem to hold steady
on vital matters.
We'll get whatever you need, Doctor.
What I need is to use the
X One Zero model.
I see.
Actually, I only need about one hour
a day on the big machine.
I know they have one
in the Mason building.
Well, we did want you to stay there,
Doctor, where we know you're safe.
What good is my being safe
if I can't do my work?
Okay. I'll speak to Oscar about it.
If I could go this afternoon,
and every day for just one hour.
It's very important to me.
I'll see what I can do.
Is everything else all right?
Oh, yes, yes. I'm very comfortable.
I do miss our tennis, though.
Well, maybe we can find time later on.
I'll let you know what Oscar says.
Thank you, Steven. Bye.
And in reply to your request for further
information on the Jamison Project...
what I will need is more details...
Yes, Steve?
Dr. Losey is unhappy.
What about?
He needs to use one of your special
computers, the X One Zero.
OSCAR: The only one we have
is in the Mason Building Lab.
STEVE: Right. He'd like permission
to go there every day...
for about an hour
starting this afternoon.
Well, we can't very well
take the lab to him.
Nope.
I guess it's alright.
George? This is Oscar
Goldman.
I give permission for Dr. Losey
to go to the Mason Building Lab.
OSCAR: Yeah, anytime.
This afternoon would be alright.
Right.
(HANGS UP)
Done.
AGEE: Pardon me, Gentlemen...
Get out of the way, please,
we're government agents.
Oh, yes. I'm aware of that.
I think you should be aware
that at this moment...
a high powered rifle is aimed
directly at Dr. Losey.
Right there.
Now, then, Dr. Losey
will come with us...
and you will not follow.
If you do, I assure you
Dr. Losey will be killed immediately.
Okay?
Okay.
Doctor?
(TIRES SCREECH)
They what?
I don't believe it!
Alright, you get over here.
I want a full report.
They grabbed Dr. Losey.
What? Where?
In front of the Mason Lab!
They were waiting for him!
This phone is bugged, Steve.
You understand me? Bugged!
Dempster says no.
(HANGS UP)
I know the only way to find Losey is
to plug this leak and then try and trace it.
There were only three people who knew
that Losey was going to that lab.
You, me and George.
And Callahan.
I know, I know. I said that
she couldn't possibly be involved.
But she's been in this room every time
secret plans have been mentioned.
What are you getting at, Steve?
A bug, a plant.
Not in her office,
not in her apartment...
but on her person.
That's possible.
That pendant. That pendant she wears
that she says her boyfriend gave her.
She wears that every day.
It's big enough for a transmitter.
You're right.
You could be right, Steve.
It's a hunch.
A hunch? Hunches are all
we have to go on.
Okay. She may not like it,
but it's gotta be done.
Get her in here.
Give her some work that'll keep her
normally quiet for a while.
(DIALING)
Callahan! Um... Callahan.
Would you... would you
please come in here?
Thank you.
Callahan.
You won't need that notebook.
Now, sit down right here.
I'd like you to read this report.
It'll take about ten minutes.
Whatever you say, sir.
Well, I better be going, Oscar.
See you later, Callahan.
Alright, Steve.
Well, hello again.
This room is absolutely bug proof,
right, Dempster?
Right.
The walls are laminations
of copper mesh, negatively grounded...
and the space is flooded
with high frequency warbler signals.
No sound can get in or out.
(HUM)
HECTOR: Something's happened
to the transmission, Agee.
AGEE: What?
You can talk now, Callahan.
Oh, that's good.
Because I'd like to know
why we're playing charades.
Well, because I think the bug
we're looking for is on your person.
Oh, no, Colonel. Come on.
We've been all through that.
I'm sorry, Callahan, it's a hunch
that we have to investigate.
Now, can I see
that pendant, please?
Um, Gene gave me this pendant.
I know. Take it off
and hand it to me.
Oh, I see. Now you suspect
my fiancee, huh?
Look, I have to suspect anybody
that's given you anything lately.
Let me have that.
You're gonna be very sorry...
and you're gonna see
this is all very foolish.
Yes, yes.
I know. Maybe.
(BUZZING)
Tom?
Well?
There's no transmitter in here, Steve.
Are you certain?
I'm positive.
This baby would pick it up in a second.
There.
Thank you. You satisfied?
Not quite.
I thought you believed in me.
Callahan, it's not you, it's just that anything
given to you lately could be a bug.
Oh, that's absolutely ridiculous.
I'm sorry, Callahan,
but I have to ask.
That watch.
Did Gene give you that watch?
He did not.
I bought this watch for myself
about a year ago.
We'll have to check it out
anyway. Tom?
(BUZZING)
Nothing.
See?
What else did he give you?
Colonel Austin? Colonel?
Can I put your mind at ease?
Besides the candy
and the flowers...
the only thing that
Dr. Gene Finney has given me...
is a dog and a lovely pendant.
Unless you want to count
some free dental work?
Dental work?
What kind of dental work?
He filled a cavity.
In my lower right molar.
What do you think, Tom?
It's certainly possible.
He... What are you talking about?
Open your mouth, Callahan.
I will not!
Look, if you want to prove your fiancee
is innocent, open your mouth.
No, I will not. I will not do anything
absolutely ridiculous like that.
Open your mouth.
(LOUD BEEPING)
It's a bug, alright.
Jackpot!
No!
TOM: A very powerful transmitter.
What are you saying?
That's impossible.
Callahan, you've been transmitting
top secret information...
and your boyfriend set up
the whole thing.
I... I just can't believe that.
Tom, is there any way
you can prove it to her?
I think so. Over here.
We just got this new
frequency range finder.
(WARBLING TONE)
You want to sit down, Callahan?
Yeah.
Once I know the exact frequency...
I can adjust any receiver
to pick up the transmission.
Colonel Austin, this can't be true.
I mean... Not Gene.
He can't be using me.
I'm sorry, Callahan.
(WITH FAST ECHO)
There. Now, this receiver is adjusted
to the right frequency.
Miss Callahan,
would you whisper something?
(WITH FAST ECHO)
Whisper. What shall I whisper?
It's picking up my every word.
And anything said in your presence.
Shut it off, Tom.
Oh...
Hey, where's that Yankee
backbone, huh?
No. I was just worried about my mother.
She's gonna be so unhappy.
Yeah, well, I'm worried about Dr. Losey.
He's been kidnapped.
Am I to blame for that too?
No, but your dentist friend is.
Now, whoever's been listening can't hear
what's being said in this particular room.
I want to make one thing clear.
I want you to act completely natural
when we leave this room.
You're not to mention the tooth
or the transmitter. You understand?
Yeah. What about Gene?
I'll take care of Dr. Gene Finney.
AGEE: Getting anything yet?
HECTOR: Yes. Whatever the
interference was, it's gone now.
Hello.
Hello.
I'd like to see Doctor Finney.
Right away, please, it's important.
I'm sorry,
the Doctor is out this afternoon.
Out? Where did he go?
I have no idea. He just left.
He didn't say where he was going.
Thank you.
(LOUD SNAP)
(PHONE RINGS)
Hello. Dr. Goldman's office...
Mr. Goldman's office.
Hi, Darling. This is Gene.
Oh.
I'm down at Alfonse's.
Wondered if you could
get away and have some coffee.
I'm sorry. I don't think
I can get away right now.
And on second thought, maybe
I can get somebody to sit in for me.
And, um...
I've got a few things
I want to say to you, Dr. Finney.
So you wait for me, okay?
I'll be there.
Bye-bye.
GENE: Hello.
Something wrong?
I'd like a drink, please.
In the afternoon?
Yeah. Wine cooler on the rocks.
Then we can talk later?
Okay. Waiter?
Hello, Colonel Austin.
Can I help you?
Hello.
Where's Miss Callahan?
Oh, she went to meet
her boyfriend.
Said it was very important.
She did? Did Mr. Goldman
know she was leaving?
I don't really know.
Well, tell him.
And also tell him to meet me
in Tom Dempster's lab right away.
Yes, sir.
Darling, something is wrong,
I know it.
Yeah, you always were
very bright.
What is it?
I came to say goodbye.
Good bye?
Yes, I no longer wish to be
engaged to you.
Peggy, I don't understand.
Please, wait
until the waiter leaves.
She's acting strange.
She might be onto us.
It's possible.
They're at Alfonse's.
Take Rusty and pick them up.
The dentist too?
Yes. Both of them.
We've got the doctor,
now we cover our tracks.
Take them to the garage
where we're holding Losey.
I'll be with you in a while.
Give me a half an hour.
Tom, will this receiver still pick up
Callahan's voice?
Sure. It's tuned to
her frequency.
But you can't pick it up
in this room.
Thanks.
I'm taking it with me.
Where did Callahan go, Steve?
I'll explain
on the way to the car.
Darling,
is it something I've done?
Don't you know
what you've done, Gene?
Well, nothing to
make you so upset, no.
Let me put it to you this way.
I am sorry I rushed into
this relationship.
I was brought up in a
much more reserved manner.
Hey...
we love each other.
Do we, Gene?
Do we really?
GENE'S VOICE: Peggy, I wish you'd
explain this sudden change of heart.
CALLAHAN'S VOICE:
I'd like another drink, please.
Could... Could you get the waiter?
Sounds like it's in
a bar or a restaurant.
And if she walked to meet him,
it's gotta be nearby.
There's sure a lot of bars
around here, though.
We'll just have to keep listening.
Hope for a clue.
I'd like another.
Now that's quite enough, Peggy.
It gives me the courage, Gene...
the courage to tell you
what I really think of you.
If you only knew how happy my mother
has been for the past few weeks.
What has your mother
got to do with this?
My mother is the only person
in the whole world...
who loves me completely.
She'll be broken hearted
when she learns about you.
Learns what about me?
That you are a cad.
Perhaps the caddiest cad
I've ever met.
GENE: Peggy, I wish you'd explain
what you're talking about.
CALLAHAN: I bet you do.
Afternoon, Doctor.
What are you doing here?
I was told to pick up you
and your girlfriend.
AGEE: Shall we go?
Oh, someone else
has been listening.
CALLAHAN: I'm not going anywhere.
Lady...
I've have a gun in my pocket.
Now get up and walk to the door...
or it might just go off.
We better do as he says, Peggy.
HOST: Alfonse, telephone.
HOST: Alfonse, telephone please.
Alfonse's, that's over on fourth.
Five blocks west of here.
(TIRES SCREECH)
(TIRES SCREECH)
AGEE: Let's go. The garage.
Which garage?
We're coming up to Fourth.
We'll just have to keep cruising
and hope for some more information.
Peggy, I'm sorry.
Yeah, now, you're sorry.
A lot of good that's
gonna do either of us.
Oh, Gene, I wish you just could've been
a plain old honest dentist.
It takes a lot of money
to set up a private practice.
So much, so I was sure
I'd never make it...
until their offer came along.
Well, I was wrong.
I know that.
I'm truly sorry
you're involved in this.
I suppose you really are
in love with me?
Peggy, I was
pretending at first...
but you're quite a woman.
I think I really did begin
to fall in love with you.
Don't make any
confessions, Gene.
Remember?
Your boss can hear every word.
GENE: I don't care.
Oh, come on, Callahan.
Tell me something.
GENE: You are right, though.
We never did have much privacy.
He's got the one receiver
that could pick up every word.
Now, this receiver is adjusted
to the right frequency.
GENE: What is it, Peggy?
Nothing.
Nothing.
(CLEARS THROAT)
I was just noticing that I used to live
about a half a block from here.
On Ramparts Street.
Ramparts Street.
They're on Ramparts Street.
That's two blocks over.
Wait. She never lived
on Ramparts Street.
She's playing a hunch.
Come on, Callahan. Come on.
Tell me, Gene, how much did you get
for working with them?
More than $5,000?
Much more than that.
CALLAHAN'S VOICE:
How much more than $5, 000?
She's gotta be telling us
they're past the 5000 block.
We're heading in the
wrong direction.
Alright, you're clear to turn.
(TIRES SQUEAL)
Hello. Get me
Fred Brown, please.
Fred?
This is Oscar Goldman.
We're gonna need some help.
Will you stand by, please?
(HONKS HORN TWICE)
Why are we stopping here?
Please, lady. Don't be stupid.
You know why.
Well, Acme Garage.
I never thought I'd end my days
in such a dreary place.
Fred. Acme garage on Ramparts street.
Bring a squad.
Well, Dr. Finney.
And this is the young lady.
Very attractive.
You had no reason
to bring her here.
Oh, but I do.
We're all leaving the city
in that van...
and you two are going
to accompany us.
At least, uh, part of the way.
HECTOR'S VOICE: Agee, put them in
the van along with Dr. Losey.
While we're waiting for the men,
I'll take a look.
Good.

Colonel Austin!
Callahan, are you alright?
Doctor?
Oh, I'm fine, Steven.
(DOOR OPENS)
Peggy. Peggy?
I just wanna say, uh... Well, I...
There's nothing to be said, Gene.
It's your loss, Finney.
Lovely lady, lovely smile.
(BAR PIANO PLAYS)
STEVE: What's the matter, Callahan?
The food not good?
CALLAHAN: I'm just...
(SIGHS)
I can't enjoy anything.
Why?
It was hard enough,
going to that dentist...
having that bug removed.
Now seeing all these smiling faces.
Callahan, things aren't that bad.
No?
How would you feel, Colonel,
if you had resolved...
to never again allow romance
to enter your life?
You've done all that?
Decidedly.
We Callahans learn from experience,
my father used to tell me...
Steve?
Hey, Ted.
Uh, Ted Harter, Miss Callahan.
Hi.
Miss Callahan.
I've heard the name.
Um, may I join you?
Uh, not me.
I've gotta get back.
Miss Callahan?
How about you?
Yeah.
I got plenty of time.
You two have fun here.
Well, may I buy you a drink?
I'll be back in a minute, okay?
Colonel Austin?
Yeah?
That man, Ted?
Is he alright?
Is he alright?
Yeah, well, what I mean is,
is he security cleared?
Callahan, go in peace.
He works for security.
Thanks.
