Santo vs. Doctor Death (1973) - full transcript

After a famous painting is vandalized, mexican Wrestler "El Santo" is appointed by the Interpol to solve the case and is sent to Europe, once in Spain, he finds out that the painting got damaged so it could be replaced with a counterfeit and that a ring of art thieves is behind the crime. Now is up to him to bring them to justice and recover the stolen paintings.

Agreed, you can put it
in it's place now

Gentlemen, if you please

Santo
vs
Dr. Death

How is it possible?
What could have happened?

You saw the perfect condition

the painting was in
before it was shipped here

- Naturally
- of course,

it must have happened
while it was being shipped

Inspector, what do you think?

I can only assure you

That between now and the moment
the painting was handed over in Mexico



no one has had access to it

We followed the shipping van
the whole way,

we didn't lose sight of it,
even for a second

This isn't a random accident,

it has to have been caused
by a madman

Gentlemen, I think we
shouldn't waste any time

Of course

Inspector, you have
total liberty to proceed

in any manner you find
most convenient

I'd appreciate it if all of
you can keep quiet about this

We should speak with the director
of the Mexican National Art Gallery

- as soon as possible
- Very well

What do you want?

If you're with the press
then wait out there,



we'll let you know
when we're ready

- And if I'm not?
- Same thing applies,

Santo's busy

Tell Santo I bring news
from a friend

Rudy, let that man in

and watch the door from the
outside so we aren't bothered

Interpol, you've been assigned
to a mission

I have contracts to fulfil,

I'm going to Spain for a
world title match in Madrid

That's one of the reasons
you were chosen,

because you'll be working there

That way your presence in that
country would have a good excuse

What's this about?

The Velasquez painting
that came from Prague

and was displayed
in our country

has suffered great damage

Here?

That's one of the things
you have to find out,

we don't know anything else

I have to be in Madrid
in a few days,

it'd be good to start
investigating here first

There are many people
working on the case in Mexico

You must travel to Spain as
soon as possible, it's urgent

I'm sorry friend

Yes, Santo the Man
in the Silver Mask

Let him leave Mexico,
we'll take care of him here

Follow him and watch
everything he does

Understood

It's the work of a madman

Do you think
it can be restored?

Yes,

fortunately the acid
or product they used

didn't penetrate deeply
into the canvas

To be exact it's acid,
formic acid

along with something else that
we haven't been able to identify

Here's a copy of the report
from the chemical science faculty

Do they say that it
won't keep spreading?

Yes, in that very paper, it
reflects the chemist's opinions

Keep us informed of
anything that happens

Of course, being the custodian
of that painting

is a great responsibility
and honour

If you consider police
surveillance necessary...

This castle is well guarded

- Goodbye
- Goodbye

I'm convinced that in your
hands the painting will be saved

Thank you

Have a good trip gentlemen

We're alone Peter

I congratulate you Peter,

your work has been admirable

Thank you Doctor

Be sure to prepare
everything for tonight,

I'm going to make a copy
of the painting

But first it has to be cleaned

No, I'll make a copy of the painting
in it's current state

with which I'll pretend to work

That jewel mustn?t be damaged

- I don't understand
- Like in Paris

It's been a long while

I get it

You must make sure
nothing goes wrong Peter

Hello? Excuse me?

Come upstairs, the Doctor
is waiting for you

Come on Felix, we have a party

Nancy, you'll be next but
you'll have to wait a few months

Let's go

She's dead

Scalpel

You can come in

Come on, hurry

That's good

That's what I think gentlemen

I don't see anything that
makes me think it's a fake

What is it that makes you say
this is a copy?

The quality of Velasquez's
painting in general is absolute,

however, in that section
it's missing a master's touch

Yes, possibly,

but I'd chalk it up to the
accident the painting has suffered

Supposing that it were a copy,

it would have been made
in Velasquez's time

And in his own studio

We'll run an analysis
on the canvas

An analysis would only
tell us the age of the cloth

and on that point we all agree

Once it's been restored

we should put the piece
under an x-ray machine

That would be the definitive test

- Excuse me Doctor
- Sarah, what's going on?

An urgent call from London

Gentlemen, please
excuse me a few seconds

Of course

Doctor, it's Max. I'm in London

Santo has been investigating
in the National Gallery

He's reserved a ticket for Paris,

- I suppose he'll go to the Louvre
- To the Louvre?

Max, it's necessary that
that man never arrives in Paris

- He won't
- I hope so

It's of vital importance to me

You know I pay well
for services rendered,

and I consider this one
extraordinary,

so good luck and contact
me tomorrow after the job

Very well, I will

In the archives
I read about an incident

that happened a few years ago

We had a very similar case
a few years ago.

Damage appeared on
a painting inexplicably

Fortunately it turned out
to be a copy,

I say fortunately in hopes that
one day the original will turn up

Do you have photographs of the
damage the painting suffered?

Of course

Who discovered it was a forgery?

The restorer.

A few hours after
getting the painting

he called to tell us his suspicions

Who was the restorer?

Professor Schwartz, a German who
had prodigious talent for this work

Had?

Yes, he died a few days
after returning the painting

The press reported that an airplane
he travelled in with a friend crashed

Very interesting, these
will be very useful to me

- I'll accompany you
- Thank you

Idiot,

letting himself be
surprised by that masked man

We don't know what
happened Doctor

We know that Max allowed
Santo to visit the Louvre

It's been 13 years Robert,

you shouldn't worry
before there's need

I've made the error of mentioning
the painting being a fake,

in Paris they'll tell him that the
same thing has happened before

Doctor, no one can connect
Professor Schwartz with you,

this will all seem
like a coincidence

Yes, but a very odd one

We have to eliminate Santo

Agreed. I'll be in Madrid
tomorrow to greet him

No

You can't leave the castle
until everything settles down

They could have given Santo
a picture of Schwartz,

he might recognize you

If in 13 years of
faking my death

we still haven't allayed
suspicions...

In a normal situation yes,
but this isn't

And besides, remember that you
replaced Professor Schwartz

due to your likeness

The most sensible thing is
that no one should see you

I think the Doctor is
right, it's not necessary

We have people in Madrid who will
make sure Santo will not be a problem

Yes

Get in contact with Morris,

there you have all the
information on his arrival

Yes yes, just a moment

Gentlemen, I beg you,
just a moment please,

I have to make a call

I have news from a friend that
lives a few kilometres away

Agreed, when and where?

At nine in Sumos Aguas,
room three

Please tell us Santo, how long
do you plan to stay in Spain?

That depends how the three
matches we have scheduled go

And who will you be fighting?

Has he ever let anyone
remove his mask?

- No, never!
- Want to try?

So long

Come in, the door is open

Come in, sit

Would you like
something to drink?

Yes, a whiskey please

Surprised, aren't you?

Yes, a bit. I expected
someone different

I'm sorry to have
disappointed you

No, it's not that,

I just expected a man with more
experience for this job

And what makes you think
I don't have it?

To be frank, your age

It's natural, but in jail
the minutes are hours,

and I've spent years locked up

which means thousands
of hours of experience

But we'll get to
know each other soon

My name is Paul

I'm delighted to
work with you Paul

A toast to everything
turning out well

Have you been told
what this is about?

I've been told everything, I'm
just waiting for your orders

Tomorrow we'll go to the
Museum of Prague-

Looks like you
were right Paul,

we're getting to know
each other

How did you transport it
from the airport to here?

In a well guarded armoured car

and they didn't stop from Barajas
until getting to the museum

Then we should
discard the possibility

that someone entered
the car on the way

Exactly

Specialized workers opened
the box in our presence

and the painting was damaged

Identical security measures
were taken in Mexico

The box in which
the painting was shipped

has been examined thoroughly

and we haven't found
a single clue

Who is the restorer?

The most prestigious one
at the moment, Doctor Mann

Doctor? Of what?

Well... art, and I don't know
what other branch of science

You've been very helpful,
thank you

You're welcome.
You know I'm at your service

Is Dr. Mann Spanish?

No, he's naturalized. He
originally came from central Europe

and is especially meticulous

A few days ago he told me

he suspects that the
painting isn't an original

And what are the
experts' opinions?

The suspicions have yet
to be confirmed,

in the end it'll have
to be examined via x-ray

What do you think?

I think it's necessary to go back
to the Louvre as soon as possible

Why?

There was a similar case there
and I want all the details

It was packed carefully and
sent to Moscow

but on being sent
back here and unpacked

we noticed it was
seriously damaged

Was it due to acid and another
unknown substance,

do you remember?

Exactly. After much investigating we
learned the damage occurred on the trip,

they used an injecting mechanism to
go through the box it was packed in

Was the perpetrator caught?

Well, one of the guards
was suspected,

but nothing could be
proved against him

A bit later he committed suicide,
or at least just turned up dead

Did the Professor restore
the painting in the museum?

No, in his studio

Professor Schwartz rented out an old
studio for that purpose in Montmartre

What did he look like?

Rather athletic, young,
though his hair was white,

and about 190 cm tall

A cigarette?

And about the painting
being a forgery,

could you give us
some other detail?

I think you know most of it,

all I know is that
it was a forgery,

as the x-rays demonstrated

but it's such an exact copy
that even so there were doubts

The only difference
from the original Rembrandt

is that the paint is very faint,

as if the brush strokes were
more tenuous, less consistent

It's was made at the same
time as the original, however

Very interesting.

is there any way to get
a picture of that professor?

Of course there is

World Championship!

Santo, the Man in the Silver Mask
vs Braulio Veliz

Attention!

A Middleweight
World Championship match!

Two out of three falls
with no time limit

The challenger,
Braulio Veliz of Spain,

weight in at 87 kg

The world champion,

Santo, the Man in the Silver Mask,

of Mexico, weighing in at 85 kg

Take it away Mr. Referee!

Champion of the world,

Santo, the Man in
the Silver Mask!

Congratulations champ,
you're not bad at all

Hurry up, we have to go
celebrate this victory

I'm sorry to contradict you,
but tonight we're going to sleep

You're in charge,
but I'd like to know why

Early tomorrow we'll be
paying Dr. Mann a visit

What do you expect him to say?

Enough to learn if the hand
that damaged the Rembrandt

is the same one that damaged
Velasquez's painting The Drunks

Even if it was,
what would that prove?

That we're not dealing
with a madman,

rather with someone very clever

I have to admit
I don't understand

Paul, don't you
find it strange

that a madman who
destroys a work of art

waits 13 whole years
before striking again?

Well, you're right,

but there's no difference between
finding a clever man and a crazy one

Though it may seem
the same to you, it isn't

And that's all the information

Remember that it has to look
like a simple accident, over

Agreed, it will be
as you say. Out

So if our dear Dr. Mann turns out
to be Professor Schwartz

we'll have reached the end

Aren't you going to go back?

I think it was just an accident

I don't think so

You think they were
trying to kill us?

- At very least, they tried
- They didn't Paul

Well then it must have been
an Asian driving

So you're Interpol agents

Take a seat gentlemen,
I'll be with you shortly

This way

Sit, please

- Can I offer you anything?
- No thanks

Thank you Sarah

Alright, I'm at your service

It's always a pleasure to
collaborate with the police

- Did you know Professor Schwartz?
- Yes,

although rivals, we were
colleagues and excellent friends

He disappeared 12 years ago
without a trace

No

I read in the newspapers that
he'd been in an airplane accident

- Oh, I'm sorry, I haven't offered you-
- No thanks

- Is this him?
- Yes,

but I don't see what
the point of this is,

I thought you were here
to ask about The Drunks

You see Doctor,
the reason for our visit-

Excuse me. Doctor, I was
told you wanted me to pose

Yes, before these men came,
they're agents from Interpol

Esther is one of my models

- Enchanted
- It's a pleasure

Esther, show the men
around the castle

because I suppose that's another
reason for their visit,

- am I wrong?
- No, not at all.

We want to make
sure the painting is in no danger

I've already told the
director of the museum

that this castle is
nearly impenetrable

Being nearly impenetrable
leaves some chance

Perhaps

Paul, go see if you can find one

Excuse me
When you're ready

You'll have to wait
a minute while I change

With pleasure

If you don't laugh at me

- I'll tell you something
- I promise

I'm afraid, the people
here are great but

I'm afraid of finishing
my work and having to leave

Why?

It might be a coincidence, but

whenever a model has
finished her work and left

we never hear from her again

Miriam left two months ago,

she swore she would write
but I never received a letter

- Did you know her from before?
- No

It could be that on leaving here
she forgot her good intentions

What worries me
is the thing with Maggie

Maggie and I are close friends,
she has a good luck charm,

a little stuffed bear, and
she would never get rid of it

When she came to say goodbye
to me she forgot it in my room

and she hasn't come back for it,
she hasn't even written for it

Perhaps she found
another good luck charm

Another time she had forgot it
she came back for it,

losing an important
contract to do it

And haven't you tried
to get in touch with her?

Yes, I've written.
I never got an answer

Are you forbidden
to make phone calls?

No

Honestly, I see nothing strange
in what you're telling me.

They could just be coincidences

In any case, when you're
about to leave,

call me at this number

- Is that Peter?
- Who?

I thought it was Peter, the
Doctor's nephew, but it's not him

Does that nephew live here?

Yes. He's been blind
for many years,

or perhaps from birth,
I don't know

We see very little of him,
and not every day

Blind, what bad luck

Talking to you
has put my mind at ease,

especially now that Margaret
to picking me up soon

I wouldn't want to
involve her in a mess

When is she arriving?

She'll get to Madrid
the day after tomorrow

She's taking a
flight from London

And this is the last
thing on our tour,

the pool

Sabin, Vicky, come here

Vicky, this is Paul

- Enchanted
- Enchanted

I see Dr. Mann makes sure his models
enjoy themselves to the fullest

Yes, it's really a lovely place

and he's a delightful man

Another companion. Sabin, Paul

- It's a pleasure
- Delighted

You're not telling me Paul
is staying here, are you?

No, though not because
I don't want to

He's working,
he's an Interpol agent

That's a shame

I can only assure you that for being
the supposed perpetrator

of the damage to the
painting in the Louvre

and The Drunk he's used very
different methods

Thank you Doctor...
Doctor of what?

Art and chemical science

Two opposing arts

My father wanted me
to be a chemist,

but painting was
always my calling

And what's Margaret's last name?

Smith, Margaret Smith, why?

No reason, just curiosity

You've been a very useful
tour guide

And remember, if you need
anything from me just call

I will, now I feel much calmer

- What do you think?
- About what?

Of our visit

That we'll have to start all over

Yes, you're right

They've just left

The Doctor doesn't want
them to notice anything,

simply let us know when they
go by on their way to Madrid

Repeat the change

I repeat, we will only give word

when the car goes by
on the way to Madrid

Over and out

It's time, my dear Sarah,
to look upon my collection,

the world's most incredible
collection in the world

Some of them have cost
so much sweat and blood

And how much ingenuity

While they exhibit copies in
the best museums of the world,

I possess the originals

Now I only need the
Beautiful Gardener

I'm excited at the thought
that these very canvases

have felt the touch of the
glorious masters Rembrandt

da Vinci

Goya

Velasquez

and El Greco

What did you want?

The policemen passed
the checkpoint on the road

- but if you allow me-
- I know what you're going to say

Have you ever seen me make a
decision without considering it?

Never

If you want to know my
reasoning I'll tell you

I didn't want them to have a
second accident on the same road

because it might
make them suspicious

I'm confident that
Santo will die in the ring.

Let's wait for that
match in Madrid

But we don't know

what Esther talked about to the
policeman on the grounds

In the conversation you recorded
when they returned

it was clear it wasn't important

He said
"If your fears continue, call me"

But what are her fears?

What could she have told him?

We didn't hear that

Nothing important, if it was

they would have said
goodbye differently

In any case, once Margaret
arrives I'll say goodbye to Esther

and then you'll be the ones
in charge of her

- Ms. Margaret Smith?
- Yes?

Interpol

My papers are in order and
I'm not carrying contraband

No, I'm not here for that, I was
just hoping you could work with us

I'm sorry, I have
something else I need to do

That's exactly what
this is about.

If you'll be kind enough
to come with me I'll explain

Alright

You cooperation would consist of

letting an Interpol agent
take your place

and pretend to be Margaret
Smith around Dr. Mann

You'll receive your usual
pay and the cost of your hotel

I'd be crazy not to accept

You mustn't get in
contact with Esther

as that would endanger
your life and the agent's

You can count
on my cooperation

There's something
you haven't told me

Who gave you my name?

No one,

Paul and I picked you
after meeting Margaret

using Interpol's archives

That's why I asked.

I'll have to talk to the Chief,
I have a job to complete

We already talked to him,
you've been relieved of it

Perfect. So you think Dr. Mann
has something to do with this?

I don't think that man
is suspicious at all

Neither do I

Esther's fears seem to me to be the
fruit of an overactive imagination

Then why put me there?

I'm convinced that what happened
wasn't the work of a madman,

so while we still don't have
any solid leads

we have to be as close
as possible to the painting

without arousing suspicion

and you are the perfect person

When should I leave?

After speaking with Margaret,

she'll fill you in on her
relationship with Esther

I think that's a good idea.

Paul, accompany her, I'm
expecting a call from Mexico

Please Ms. Esther, don't move

Forgive me Doctor, I'm very tired

I know, but Sabin and Vicky must
be too and they're not moving

Excuse me

Be patient

I think in two or three
days I'll be done with this

Doctor, the new model
has just arrived

Tell her to come in

Please

Good evening

Hello Esther!

Paul sent me in Margaret's place

That's a cold greeting
for your friend Margaret

The Doctor doesn't like us
to move when we're working

- No no, you can rest
- Dr. Mann

- It's a pleasure Doctor
- Enchanted

Your companions will
fill you in on my habits

and will tell you
what you have to do

Sarah, take her to her room

I'll see you later Esther

Sabin, Vicky, delighted

Ladies, let's keep working.
Pose please

This is your bedroom

It's precious

Lunch is at two
and dinner is at nine

What time does
the Doctor work?

He has no set hour, just
when the inspiration strikes,

sometimes even early
in the morning

- And my obligations?
- Punctuality,

both to meals
and when asked to go pose

I'll be punctual

- Esther?
- Yes

Come in

We haven't seen each other
in four months

but you haven't changed a bit

Perhaps a little heavier,

we get to eat well
and don't work much

I want to thank you for
recommending me for this job,

you live like queens here.
What's the old man like?

A good guy, he doesn't call
much but he's sort of grouchy

Today he told me that I'll
have to leave in three days

What he hates most is
when you move while posing

I want you
to show me this castle,

I'll be dressed in a moment

To be honest, I didn't
understand at first,

I don't know if they noticed

Good thing you were supposed
to be posing at the time

Tell me more about Mann
and the rest

The truth is I haven't
noticed anything strange,

I wouldn't be surprised

if the secretary was involved
with with the Doctor

but it really doesn?t' show,

and we only see the old
man at meals, and not always

Alright, do you know
the castle well?

Yes, well, I think I do

Are there any forbidden areas?

No,

just the Doctor's room,
if that's what you mean

You've disappointed me,
it all seems so normal

In any case, don't forget
the microphones

If you have anything
to say to me, write it

- I love Spain
- You like the sun?

I dislike rain

Me too, and in spite of the
climate I've always liked England

Thank you. And you Peter?

I haven't been back
since my accident

I thought you were
blind from birth

No,

I lost my sight in a
car accident 13 years ago

By the way Margaret, what
train brought you from Madrid?

I didn't take a train,
I drove my car

Stupendous, that way when the
Doctor doesn't need us

we can go to town

And what?
Look at the hicks?

No, to go to the discoth?que

If the Doctor permits it we can

Of course, of course you can

Do you play bris?

Badly, but I play

Excellent,

one evening we'll invite
Dr. Hidalgo

and along with Sarah
we'll play a hand

You've just won
the Doctor's friendship

Yes, I like bris
Alright,

goodnight ladies

Want me to help you?

I'm no cripple,
I can fend for myself

Forgive me

- That Peter isn't too friendly
- He has his moments

And now what can we do?
Is there a television?

The Doctor doesn't like it,

he says he hates seeing
commercials for detergents

The best thing to do
is lie down and read,

I'm becoming quite a scholar

If you want I can lend you
some magazines, I have many

No, I think I'll sleep

What are you
doing here Miss?

Forgive me, I couldn't sleep
and came looking for a book

All of those
are scientific texts

Are you a chemist?

Yes, are you interested
in chemistry?

No, not at all

I'm sorry

Thank you very much
Doctor. Excuse me

Rest well

- Come in Peter
- Thank you

- Goodnight
- Goodnight

What was she doing?

She was looking for a book,
at least that's what she said

Why weren't
the alarm systems on?

It was a mistake on my part

- Don't let it happen again
- Yes

- Is there news from Madrid?
- No, not yet

It'll be soon

Attention!

Sensational combat of two
falls with no time limit

Mask against mask!

The Northern Puma!

Santo, the Man in
the Silver Mask!

Attention,

winner by three count,

Santo, the Man
in the Silver Mask!

X1 calling FL, over

FL here, go on, over

X1 one reporting, was received
well, I searched the castle well

I found nothing strange
except for a laboratory

and there are microphones
in the rooms.

We can go wherever we please

There are no
forbidden areas, over

What chemicals are there
in the laboratory, over

I don't know, over

Did you see the nephew?

Does he look like the man
in Schwartz's picture, over

There's a strong resemblance
but he's blind, over

Make sure he's
not pretending, over

I'll make sure. I'll call
at this hour tomorrow, over

If there's an emergency
call at any time.

One of us will be here
at all times

Will you forgive my
ill humour last night?

It bothers me when people
consider me a cripple

On one condition

What is it?

Tell me about your accident

It was very simple.

I drove a car, I drove well
and liked to go fast

Now I've lost
the pleasure of velocity

On taking a sharp turn I
crashed into a car straight on

Because of the impact
I lost my sight

Miss, get me away from
the branches,

remember that I can't see

I beg you to forgive me, I
was distracted, are you hurt?

No, don't worry

Sit down please

Now I have to ask forgiveness

for not knowing how to deal
with someone who's blind

I know it's difficult, sometimes
it makes people uncomfortable

What do you miss most?

Not being able to move freely

Right now I'd like to walk
looking at the sky,

to see the colours,

After not seeing them for
so long you start forgetting

If you don't mind I'd rather walk

I like walking

I think she's making
sure I'm blind

- In what way?
- Very ably

Walking through the park there
was a branch level to my face,

she didn't warn me

I pretended not to see
and ran into it

She also didn't tell me Esther
was there when we bumped into her

But later I had to make a
superhuman effort not to react when

she reflected sunlight into
my eyes with a little mirror

Intentionally?

She pretended to
fix her makeup

We'll have to make sure

Send them to me to pose

While they do so,

search among her
personal effects

Alright

I'm dying of curiosity,

can you tell me why you made me
perfume myself near Peter?

To make sure
if he's blind or not

And he is?

No

If he was

the smell of your perfume would
have alerted him to your presence

Blind people develop
a strong sense of smell

The only bad thing is that
he might have realized it

Nothing

Just like in Esther's room.

Couldn't it just be your
imagination Peter?

I'm sure she was trying to
find out if I'm really blind

We haven't checked the car

A portable transmitter
Let the doctor know

Excuse me, Peter wants to
talk to you, it's urgent

You can rest ladies

- Let's go!
- What's going on?

I don't like this, it's possible
they've discovered the transmitter

And what happens if they have?

Let's go, it's best
that they not find us

How are we going
to leave like this?

It's better than losing
our lives here. Follow me

Where?

Hurry

There's an exit here?

There's one here that they
might not know I know about

- Follow me
- I'm scared

Please

I imagine that now
there's no doubt

No..
Take care of them

- Look!
- It's gas!

Yes?

Alright, we'll be right up

You

Now you'll tell me who you are

and what you're looking for

That's silly, you already know

I know what you've told us,
but not the truth

which is what you're going
to tell us now

Leave me alone!

Look at these. They're
of the most poisonous sort

If you refuse to talk
you'll find out for yourself

What do you want to know,
I've told you the truth!

I'm Margaret Smith, I came
to pose for the doctor!

Yes, I know that,

but what were you and your
friend doing in the castle's halls?

Last night I went down
for a book

I discovered a door
in the library

We were curious to see what
was behind it, that's all

No, by god, I swear,
I'm telling the truth!

And the transmitter in your
car? Can you explain that?

It's a transmitter radio,
I always travel with it

I've been an enthusiast
for years

I've told you the truth!

All of his victims are the
ones that have no family

or people that'll miss them

I don't understand
why they're doing this

He has a formula with which
he makes perfect copies

of the paintings they
bring him to restore

and as you can see,
he needs women

For what?

They inject us every day with
something that causes tumours

which is evidently what
he needs for his formula

That's horrible

So...

- all of you..?
- Yes

We're sick and just
waiting for our time to come

After 5 months
we're no longer useful

That man is a monster!

What have they done
to Susan?

If they've realized that she's a
member of Interpol

they'll kill her

No, they'd just be wasting
a woman that way

She was in contact
with agents in Madrid

and if she's silent they
may come to investigate

They won't find us here

Esther, come here

Believing the scorpions
were venomous,

I'm sure she told the truth

- I have good news
- Yes?

What is it?

A woman in town
died of cancer, she was 35

She was treated with oestrogen
and buried this afternoon

Excellent, that way we don't
have to wait for one of ours

I've already spoken to the other
models and the serving staff

about Margaret's sudden
departure due to family matters

You're a magnificent partner,
thank you

Peter, take care of everything

Something's wrong, it's
been 40 hours of silence

The transmitter has
been tested twice

Sadly I don't think the
silence is due to some accident

I agree. What will you
do, notify the brigade?

No, tonight we'll pay a visit
to Dr. Mann

Go get the car

and prepare things
for the trip, I'll watch this

Agreed

Pincers

- Sarah
- Yes?

Let them know

You can come in

It's closed

Go see who it is Peter

Yes?

It's the Interpol agents
that were here the other day

I was expecting them,

I would've been disappointed
if they hadn't come

They're headed
to the basement

Take care of them,
I won't stand for failure

Take care of that one

They're releasing gas!

Hold it

Freeze
Turn around

Where do you
shut off the gas?

Through this door

Hold it

Let's go

...and with large doses
of oestrogen

I cause them to grow
fibrotic tumours,

that way my models become
excellent breeding ground

for prime material
for my formula

- You're crazy
- It's possible

But my madness is sublime

What's the life of one of those
poor wretches worth

against an original masterpiece?

Sublime?

You're a common murderer

You're insults are
boring me young man

Sarah?

Turn around

Untie me!

- Take care of things here
- Yes

9004 calling for a helicopter

Get close and lower the ladder
