A computer matched her with him? I don't think so.
A lady in a green skirt and this guy with the cap.
A loathsome man named Buddy DeVries,
A right on Antrim and a left on 84.
A spokesman for the party said they had plenty of money in their accounts last week,
A ticket stub to a Barry Manilow concert.
A.K.A. Buddy Weber, Buddy Wallace.
ABBOTT: Are we done here? Not yet. Whistler.
ABBOTT: Mr. Bishop.
Absolutely. This is outside the NSA's jurisdiction.
Ah, it's an emergency exit.
Air traffic control system.
Ajar of pencils, but no little black box.
All of you, step over here.
All right, all right.
All right, I'll give you a reason.
All right, that's enough. Let's go.
All right. I'll be right back.
All right. I'll see what I can do.
All right. It's time we call the authorities.
All the computers in the world could not break them down.
All the more reason to turn ourselves in now while we can still cut a deal.
All you did was say it was broken.
All yours, Bish.
Almost where?
Amnesty International, Greenpeace, and the United n**** College Fund
Anal.
And allow us to acquire the solution in a dramatically more efficient manner.
And chairman of the social committee.
And don't tell me you won't do it, because I've got to have it.
And he hard wired it into that chip.
And I began to perform a variety of services.
And I can get my name back.
And I like the fact that they're under 30.
And looks at me, like right dead in my eyes.
And never let him know
And now she's out to ruin him.
And she begins to go, and this one bull turns around
And she's using me to get to you.
And Tahiti.
And Tahiti.
And that's why she hired me.
And then there's Martin Bishop.
And then what did you hear?
And there's this one word. I've always loved the sound of this word.
And they will come up with a name.
And we are going.
And we can't tell anybody.
And we're gonna get a clear shot.
And women.
Another bump. Enhancing.
Any faster than that...
Any problems?
Anybody else?
Anybody want to shut down the Federal Reserve?
Anyway, they arranged for me to get an early release
Are there any secondary indications? Smoke or flame?
Are you ready for the dim sum bar?
Are you seeing... Shh!
At least I... Oh! Goodness, can it be?
At least not until now.
Athens. Oh, and Scotland.
Bastard liar!
Battle stations.
Be a beacon in his sad and lonely life. Can you do that for Gunter?
Be a beacon?
Beautiful. Come and get us.
Beauty. We got body temp, Crease.
Because money's most powerful ability is to allow bad people
Because the neoprene would suffocate you.
Been vacant for a month.
Before we begin, there's something we'd like to clear up.
Besides it's absolutely fabulous, is that it only has 400 calories.
Better Whistler.
Between the pencil jar and the lamp.
Bingo!
Bingo.
Bish, he's lying.
Bish, I think you better come over here.
Bish, they've got Crease and Mother.
Bish, what did it sound like?
Bishop, you don't have a business.
BISHOP: Come on, Crease. There's got to be a way around these things.
BISHOP: He had some little problem with the phone company.
BISHOP: I didn't invent the word.
BISHOP: I don't know where it is, remember?
BISHOP: No.
BISHOP: Oh, this is good.
BISHOP: Okay, let's see here. Phone bill, no long distance. Club Med brochure.
BISHOP: That's Cosmo's office. I saw the sensors.
BISHOP: Turn it Off.
BISHOP: What, no parachute?
BISHOP: You wouldn't believe what I had to go through
Bishop?
Blue team, move to corridor one. Green team, secure north corridor.
Bridge, yeah.
Buddy Wallace. Hi.
Buddy, is that Janek's file?
Budgets, payroll, money laundering, you name it.
Bumps. Rough ones.
But first, who's got my check?
But further apart.
But I do expect you to understand this. We started this journey together.
But I found out.
But if the feds get Janek's box...
But if you guys don't want to take that chance just to keep me out of jail...
But if you want to stop me, you'll have to pull the trigger.
But maybe, just maybe there's a shortcut.
But not everybody's going begging.
But the key meeting took place July 1, 1958,
But the perception of reality.
But there is a risk.
But today they just don't know where the money has gone.
But we did not take it.
But what if this indicated...
But why? Who hired you?
But you can't even see anything.
But your team, it's...
By law, we're not allowed or equipped to do this kind of operation.
Bye, Liz WHISTLER: You too, Liz.
Can I call you?
Can we beat this with tape?
Can you deal?
Can you guarantee my safety?
Can you guarantee my safety?
Can't they still just hook it up and do terrible things with it?
Card?
Carl Arbogast, age 19.
Carl, can you get me some cable and that IO interface, please?
Carl, get the diagnostics.
Carl, how's the weather?
Carl, listen carefully. You've got trouble.
Carl, now!
Carl, what else you got?
Carl, what else?
Carl, what the hell were you waiting for?
CARL: He leaves work between 6:00 and 7:00 every night,
CARL: I should have the invoice here.
CARL: Nine hundred billion a day goes through there.
CARL: See?
CARL: So let's get this frigging thing.
Carl?
Carl?
Carl? Hit the alarm.
Carl.
Carl.
Carl. Excuse us.
Carl. Yes.
Carl's in position on the fire escape. Mother's in the cable vault.
Cattle mutilations are up.

Chain of fools.
Chain, chain, chain chain, chain, chain.
Check, please.
Ciao.
Clear up my record. Get out of my life.
Cocktail party.
Come.
Coming to get you.
Conclusion? Ma Bell needs to donate some money.
Consequence, people start to withdraw their money.
Cos, you haven't gone crazy on me, have you?
Cosmo, trust me.
Cosmo.
Could I please have director of operations? It's very important.
Could we maybe just go back to the "they might kill us" part?
Crease, we're on the roof.
Crease, where's Whistler going?
CREASE: $750 limit on his Visa, pays his bills, no bad debts, no bum checks.
CREASE: All right. We gotta take it as a word.
CREASE: He's just wearing four safety belts this time.
CREASE: Hey, Martin!
CREASE: How is this possible?
CREASE: I can't believe we actually made it back.
CREASE: I don't believe this!
CREASE: Martin.
CREASE: This is what's in Cosmo's office.
CREASE: What do you think you're doing?
Crease! Forget it.
Crease? I'm in northeast three, over the corridor.
Crescent.
Cryptography systems are based on mathematical problems so complex
Cryptography. Very good.
Currency market? Commodities market? Yes.
Cute. All right. Carl, let's do this guy.
Cute. They've got the satellite in Tokyo.
Damn it! I need to know, and I need to know now.
Damn!
Darling, would you excuse me for a moment?
Darryl Roskow, also known as "Mother."
Deal. The box.
Definitely not. No, that's a V.
Destroy all records of ownership. Think of it, Marty.
Did he ever forgive you?
Did I ever tell you why I had to leave the CIA?
Did I say anything? You will.
Did my wife drop a cake off for me?
Did you ever get around to actually doing it? No, I guess not.
Did you know the deputy director of planning
Do it yourself.
Do what?
Do you have the item?
Do you read me?
Do you understand?
Do you wish our protection?
Do you wish our protection?
Do... Straighten out.
Does "Monterey's Coast" mean anything to you guys?
Does it? Yes, sir.
Does that make two, four, five.
Does this have a happy ending?
Doing okay. Five more seconds and stop.
Don't do it, Cos.
Don't forget Tahiti.
Don't go.
Don't kid yourself.
Don't listen to this man. He's certifiable.
Don't look. Listen.
Don't take this personally, Liz, but you were the only one who knew Martin's secret.
Don't tell me you can't do it because I know you can.
Don't worry. We'll get you out of there.
Don't you know the places we can go with this?
Don't.
Doris?
Dr. Elena Rhyzkov, visiting professor from Czechoslovakia,
Drive what?

ELENA: I leave message here on service but you do not call.

Everybody pack up whatever you can. This place isn't safe.
Evil defense contractors had it, noble causes did not.
Exactly why was it you had to leave the CIA?
Exactly.
Excuse me.
Excuse me.
Excuse me.
Excuse me. Elizabeth.
Excuse me...
Excuse yourself.
Expensive.
Extension, please?
Farm out. Right arm.
Farms, banks, shopping malls. Two shopping malls.
Fellows, look at this man's trash. He's not looking for buff.
Fifteen seconds.
Fine! Tahiti!
Fine. I understand. Don't do it.
Fire exits need to be monitored.
First sign of baby sitters, we back off.
Five seconds.
Five years ago, yes, we could trust them not to go running to the FBI,
Five, four...
For an interview with President Eisenhower. And Ike said,
For five long years.
For the lecture, you wanna take Whistler or do you want me?
Forget it. It's a toy company.
Found murdered earlier this week in Palo Alto.
Four bridges in the Bay Area.
Four in the south corridor, five upstairs north.
Frankly, because it's kind of illegal.
Frankly, because we...
From my unfortunate incarceration,
From the gun that killed a Russian consular officer.
Fully equipped, big kitchen, water bed, microwave.
Gee, I can't tell you what a relief that is, Dick.

Get up.
Give him head?
Give him help.
Give me a break.
Give me back Janek's box, Greg.
Give me research. It's an emergency.
Give me the box. Take the goddamn thing! I don't want it.
Give me the number for something impossible to access.
Give you a really good reason.
Go on.
Go right! Right!
Go.
God, it's good to see you.

Goddamn it, you gave me your word!
Good work.
Good.
Good.
Good. Hold on. Whistler?
GORDON: We know.
Got his check?
GREASE: On a hill overlooking the northeast corner of the lot.
Great!
Great.
Great. Now that we're accessories to espionage and murder.
Great. Now we got to look for a cocktail party
Great. The world's most boring human.
Greenpeace?
Gregor, you are shameless.
Grow up.
Grow up.
Guards in the boiler room.
Guess where it comes from?
Gunter? You're...
Guys, could we get out of here? Yeah.
Guys, do it again.
Guys, I really think you should leave that thing alone.
Guys, I'm going in. Do you hear me, Carl?
H isn't next to the L.
Had the astronauts broadcast around the world from a soundstage
Hands over your head. Move!
Hang up, Bish! Hang up! MOTHER: He's lying! He's lying!
Hang up. They've almost got us.
Has to be up close and personal.
He died in prison.
He doesn't seem to have a past.
He knows the government's been suppressing for years.
He said our codes were based on an entirely different system than the Russian codes,
He'll be in a crawl space. Break through.
He's a computer dater.
He's a generous man. I'd say, all he's got. God, I'm hungry!
He's a very safe driver.
He's giving a master lecture at 3:30...
He's gonna type in his password,
He's got a service.
He's logging on the computer.
He's lying!
He's serious.
He's serious.
He's touched.
Hello, Greg.
Help me out?
Here it is. Here we go.
Here we come.
Here, help me with this.
Here, let me do this.
Here, look, I might lose my license for this.
Here.
Hey, Abby, come on.
Hey, Crease, you on?
Hey, don't flatter yourself.
Hey, don't screw around with that thing!
Hey, guys, that federal building?
Hey, here we go.
Hey, hey, hey, hey!
Hey, hey, we're all friends here, right? Easy, easy.
Hey, let's get an l.D. on Dr. Rhyzkov.
Hey, man, I'm not waiting any longer. I'm calling the fire...
Hey, nice to see you.
Hey, no problem. And, son?
Hey. Who's Rhyzkov?
Hi, my name is Werner Brandes.
Hi.
Hi.
Hi.
Hi. Hi.
HIGH PITCHED VOICE ON TAPE: Hi, my name is...
Him?
Him.
His name's Werner Brandes.
Hmm.
Hold it right there. Crease, what's this mean?
Hold it! Hold it! Let me see your entry card.
Hold on a second here.
Hold on, Mother, go back one.
Holy cow.
Honey, you and Melissa get your things.
How about "My Socrates Note"?
How about a lunch? You can chaperon. No.
How about Barbara? Now, she was cute.
How about Donald Crease? Twenty two year veteran of the CIA.
How about you? What do you want?
How about...
How are they spelling Setec?
How are you? Fine. How are you?
How come you didn't get caught?
How could you be so goddamn stupid?
How do you know that?
How nice for him.
How the hell are we going to get close enough to record him?
How's the audio?
Huh?
Hurry up. We've only got a few minutes before anybody knows we're gone.
I agree. Who did you say you were working for?
I am not going out with you.
I believe you have something that belongs to me.
I bet.
I called your number, and someone else answered.
I can hear the emergency floodlight batteries recharging.
I can't believe we pulled off the greatest sneak in history,
I can't do this alone, Liz.
I can't reach my card. Could you buzz this, please?
I can't talk to that guy.
I cannot kill my friend.
I cannot kill you.
I cannot kill you.
I didn't know you could do that in Mexico City.
I didn't recognize the voice.
I don't believe this.
I don't care if you go to jail.
I don't care what anybody says about the "New World Order."
I don't care what that says. You're not on the list. You can't get in.
I don't care.
I don't expect other people to understand this,
I don't have much choice, do I?
I don't know. I think maybe a personality conflict.
I don't know. I've never been out of the country.
I don't know. What are you talking about?
I don't trust that guy.
I don't understand.
I don't want it.
I give you something to work, baby.
I guess not.
I have never taken my wife to Europe.
I just love it when a man says that to me.
I just want her telephone number.
I just wish we could get course credit for this. Gosh!
I keep thinking about something Greg told me.
I know how you feel. Do you?
I know that's confusing, but don't you see what's happening here?
I know you are in the building
I know you.
I know you're not gonna say Russia. Yeah.
I know, kind of different.
I know. We're the ones who caught him.
I leave message here on service but you do not call.
I leave message here on service but you do not call.
I leave message here on service but you do not...
I looked in that box just now.
I love it. Let's get him a date.
I mean it. I'm an excellent marksman. Woman! Move!
I might even be able to crash the whole damn system.
I might lose my job.
I need an extension or a name.
I need to know if you're someone who can make a deal.
I need you...
I never saw it before.
I really enjoyed sleeping with all you guys. Take care.
I really love the sound of your voice.
I see.
I should think so, considering what I've been through.
I think I'll stop right here.
I think it's a dead end. Don't move.
I think that someone is trying to break into my office!
I thought I'd buy you dinner after.
I thought the FBI was supposed to do this kind of thing.
I thought you couldn't kill your friend, Cos. I missed on purpose!
I thought you were my man.
I took it from Mother's wallet.
I want a Winnebago.
I want peace on earth and goodwill toward men.
I was lucky. He wasn't.
I went out for pizza.
I will not be dragged back into your world.
I will not do this.
I won and you lost.
I would really like to hear you say the word...
I wouldn't bring this to you.
I'd like to have a deep relationship with a beautiful woman
I'll bet you anything he's found it.
I'll bet.
I'll just close the window. It's okay now.
I'll kill him! Oh, no, no, no!
I'll relax when we get that damn thing out of here.
I'm a private investigator.
I'm afraid these books are not as current as they used to be.
I'm afraid Wallace doesn't like you very much.
I'm Bernard Abbott, National Security Agency.
I'm going forward.
I'm going to a concert.
I'm going to be sick.
I'm going to bounce this call through nine different relay stations
I'm gonna be there and check him out. Okay? Any questions?
I'm gonna remove my hand now. Please, do not scream.
I'm here on business, Liz.
I'm here.
I'm interested in all kinds of astronomy.
I'm just a link in your chain, oh.
I'm not... No.
I'm picking one up this afternoon. That makes beating this look easy.
I'm sorry if he hurt you.
I'm sorry to hear it. Give me the box.
I'm sorry, but when you're wanted by the feds,
I'm sorry, Cos.
I'm sorry?
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry. I forget the number.
I'm up! Up UP, up!
I'm your only way out.
I've had a bad night.
I've never heard sensors that powerful before.
I've read him. Now go away.
If he has, you're in over your head. I'll get my coat.
If I come in, can you guarantee my safety?
If I say no?
If I thought that was likely to happen,
If I wanted you dead...
If I were you, I'd destroy that thing.
If our friendship had meant anything to you at all,
If we had the box, yes. Without it, no.
If you change your mind call us at this number...
If you love him...
If you really love him...
If you'll excuse me, I have some work.
In a surprise announcement,
In Cosmo's office to 98.6 degrees,
Including money, operates not on reality...
Irwin Emery, also known as "Whistler."
Is involved in some plot to break into my office.
Is looking for someone meticulous, refined...
Is part of the same system that NASA used
Is someone at your door?
Is that him?
Is that the gardener? I thought he'd already left.
Isn't that what we said we always wanted?
It also responds to thermal differentials.
It could be a hundred miles away, next door, underground, in a sky rise. Forget it.
It may be nothing or it may be something. And we need to know.
It pays $175,000!
It states here that I am to deliver 36 boxes of Liquid Drano
It was a good way to meet girls.
It was the same people who framed Pete Rose.
It wasn't a journey, Cos. It was a prank.
It won't be easy getting in there.
It would be a breakthrough of Gaussian proportions,
It'll be the hardest trace they've ever heard.
It's a digital voice recognition monitor hooked up to an access booth.
It's a living.
It's about who controls the information,
It's all about the information.
It's all just electrons.
It's called a mantrap. I borrowed this demo from the manufacturer.
It's fascinating what 50 bucks can get you at the county recorder's office.
It's gotta be there somewhere. What's he doing?
It's interesting, don't you think, you guys, that the NSA is here?
It's just everybody on your team has had some sort of problem in their past.
It's just what she wants you to do.
It's just what she would want you to do.
It's kind of the same thing. Try another quadrant.
It's not that organized.
It's okay.
It's okay. I...
It's run by little ones and zeroes, little bits of data.
It's the nicest garbage I've ever seen.
It's time.
It's your mother.
Janek figured out a way to solve those problems without the key,
Janek just got in the elevator. Going up.
Janek's grant is from the NSA.
Jesus!
Job pays $175,000, payable on delivery.
Just a second. I'm not expecting anyone.
Just buzz it. I can't reach my card.
Just do your job. I don't want to talk to you anymore.
Just give me the box, Marty.
Just outside the sensor's range.
Just relax.
Just to get a safe deposit box.
Keep smiling.
Kill my friend.
Last month, the good doctor gets a grant, $380,000.
Left the NSA four years ago.
Let me see.
Let me zoom in on the front door.
Let's do what we did in Mexico City.
Let's take a look at his office.
Like seams in the concrete.
Linking the two killings. More bad news...
Listen, a few minutes ago, a gardener came...
Listen, when I was in prison, I learned that everything in this world,
Liz, I need your help.
Liz, I... It's okay. I'll get a cab.
LIZ: Boy, this was fun. Wanna go back?
LIZ: Let go of him.
Look at this, boys.
Looks like a workroom.
Loser goes.
Lower.
Lower.
Make some free telephone calls.
MAN ON PHONE: Good evening. PlayTronics.
MAN ON PHONE: Who is this, please?
MAN: Westguard Security. Yeah, I got a fire at Centurion Bank.
Martin Brice, my old and good friend,
Martin, have you lost your mind?
Martin, how wonderful to see you.
Martin, I can offer you asylum inside this car.
Martin, now that our countries are such good friends,
Martin, we lost...
MARTIN: I didn't get the money.
Martin.
Martin.
Marty,
Marty, please bring me the box.
Marty, sit down, please.
Marty, we have to find somebody truly worthy to give his money to.
Marty, you are sure we will not get into trouble for this?
Marty! Marty!
Marty?
Marty.
Marty.
May I have the box?
May I use your john, please?
Maybe I'll just open this window a bit.
Me neither. I'm in.

Mmm hmm.
Mmm hmm.
Monitor the audio. Grab the mike.
Morning. Hi.
Most firms of this type are staffed with ex law enforcement types.
Mother, get the directional. Carl, get the video. Let's go.
Mother, lock everything down.
Mother, stay on Crescent, get off at the reservoir.
Mother, that last contact.
Mother, what was that? Go back one.
MOTHER; Right On.
MOTHER: All right.
MOTHER: Hey, Bish, I think we've found our guy.
MOTHER: I'm gonna type it up later.
MOTHER: Maybe there's a frame or two where she doesn't block it.
MOTHER: No idea where they took you?
MOTHER: Not so fast.
MOTHER: Now what?
MOTHER: Okay, there's the corner room with the motion detectors Whistler heard.
MOTHER: Second floor, northwest two.
MOTHER: There's gotta be a way to cut a deal.
MOTHER: There's our little black box.
MOTHER: Where's this road go?
Mother?
Motherfuckers mess with me, I'll split your head!
Move!
Mr. Abbott, are you interested in Setec Astronomy?
Mr. Bishop, step over here, please. Hands on the wall, sir.
Mr. Bishop? My name is Special Agent Bestrop, FBI.
Mr. Bishop.
Mr. Bishop. Dick Gordon. Hi.
Mr. Brice.
My client is a vindictive, bitter woman.
My God.
My heart leaps like gazelle to see you back together again.
My name is Martin Bishop.
My voice is my passport. Verify me.
My voice is my passport. Verify me.
National power grid?
National Security Agency, director of operations, please.
National Security Agency.
Nice bank?
No delivery is scheduled. They didn't have anything on record.
No more secrets, Marty.
No more secrets.
No outstanding tickets or warrants.
No registered firearms.
No, don't do that. I'm driving!
No, don't do this.
No, I don't buy it.
No, I like them really squishy like that.
No, I...
No, it was really delicious.
No, it's the code breaker.
No, Mom, today's not a good day to come over. No...
No, no. I overcooked the carrots.
No, that's okay. I thought I'd ask Liz.
No, that's the FBI. We're not chartered for domestic surveillance.
No, they shot him, but they didn't kill him. He's still alive.
No! No, no, don't. Get a hold of yourself, Dr. Rhyzkov.
No? Oh, what a pity.
No.
No.
No.
No.
No.
No.
No.
No.
No.
No.
No.
No.
No. Go directly north, 30 yards. There's an air duct there!
No. I'm getting my bag, and I'm leaving.
No. No.
No. Nobody there.
Nobody comes out for another 18 minutes. So it's one of those two.
Nobody else comes out for 22 minutes. That's who works next door.
Nope, here we go. Now we're gonna get our password.
Nope.
Nope.
Not a very good one.
Not as accurate as a polygraph, but it'll do.
Not as sorry as I am. Werner?
Not bad. Not bad, Carl.
Not for lack of trying, mind you.
Not one word.
Not unless you wanna read about it in Newsweek.
Nothing. It's private property.
Now get out of here.
Now it's the end of the day. Watch who comes out.
Now speak right into this box.
Now the box.
Now you must believe me.
Now, hit the brakes! Now!
Now, this guy's giving a lecture tomorrow at U.C. in the afternoon.
Now, what are you saying? The CIA caused the Managua earthquake?
Now!
Now!
Now? What are you talking about?
Now.
NSA uses the same technology
Numbers themselves may be our best tools.
Of course, no one knows where Martin Brice is, do they?
Oh boy.
Oh man, I don't know.
Oh no, not at all. It's lovely.
Oh no, not the head.
Oh no! No, what? What?
Oh no.
Oh yeah, that's him.
Oh yeah? Who do you think paid for your little love jaunt to Mexico City?
Oh, all right.
Oh, God, I'm driving! I'm driving!
Oh, God, no. Here you go, come on.
Oh, God.
Oh, God. Yeah, thanks.
Oh, good one. Consequence?
Oh, Gunter.
Oh, Gunter.
Oh, Gunter.
Oh, Gunter.
Oh, I see. You just overthrow governments, set up friendly dictators.
Oh, I'm fine.
Oh, I'm not really in any hurry.
Oh, Mother.
Oh, my
Oh, my God.
Oh, nothing.
Oh, oh, watch. Watch this.
Oh, pooch. Look what you've done to Doris's purse.
Oh, shit.
Oh, sure. Sure.
Oh, thanks.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, yes. Oh, yes.
Oh, you're the guys I hear breathing on the other end of my phone.
Oh! Dr. Rhyzkov, good evening.
Oh? You mean codes?
Oh. It stopped. Sorry.
Okay
Okay
Okay
Okay
Okay
Okay
Okay, back to work.
Okay, Bish.
Okay, fellows, I'm out of here. Carl, have a nice ride.
Okay, fine. Great. No problem.
Okay, good.
Okay, I've blown up the image a little. Here's the room next to Cosmo's.
Okay, let's do it.
Okay, Mother.
Okay, Mother.
Okay, that's definitely W, G.
Okay, what have we got here?
Okay, you want law enforcement?
Okay?
Okay. I'll give it a shot.
Okay. Just for a little while.
Okay. Thank you.
Okay. We start with a very light surveillance. Level three.
Okay. What about this?
Old buddy of mine, was in Desert Storm, sent it to me.
On the other side of the railroad track.
Once again, I am so sorry about dinner.
Once you're there, let me know.
One cannot trust anybody these days.
One down.
One moment, please.
One thing I don't quite get though is you and Cosmo,
Ooh, this is a challenge.
Or if they did, we could trust the FBI not to believe them.
Or the CIA's. Or the White House's.
Or we can raise the temperature
Organized crime?
Otherwise you'll be caught in a steel reinforced booth
Pain?
Pain?
Passport?
Passport.
Peace on earth, goodwill toward men.
Pepperoni pizza, please, shaken, not stirred.
Perfect. How much should he give?
Perhaps you will finally be able to do occasional favor for me?
Pick me up at 3:00.
Play dead.
Play it back.
Play it back.
Play the tape back again.
PlayTronics' corporate headquarters.
Please, it's not a word. Right now your face is scrunchy.
Please, step out of the vehicle.
Please?
Please.
Politicians are bought and sold like so much chattel. Our problems multiply.
Pollution, crime, drugs, poverty, disease, hunger, despair.
Posit, people think a bank might be financially shaky.
Posit, the phone company has too much money.
Practice! Practice, practice!
Preparing to sever master alarm circuit.
Probing.
Psst!
Push the goddamned buzzer, will you?
Put it in reverse and floor it.
Put your hands where I can see them and step out of the van.
Quash the outstanding warrant for your arrest.
Rabies occurs only in warm blooded animals.
Railroad tracks. Yeah, yeah.
Really great. What about motion detectors?
Really, Greg, I wouldn't know how to repay you.
Really? I always thought it was kind of nasal and pinched.
Really.
Really.
Relax, Marty. We have to check on these things.
Remember that.
Result, pretty soon, it is financially shaky.
Richard Nixon's personal checking account is in here.
Right. Here's the next evening. Again...
Run this on ahead. Let's figure out who works next door.
S E T E C. Setec.
Sandy Krieger? Forget it. Married a cop.
Say it! Say it!
Scheduled for demolition since August.
Scratch the Bay.
Scratch the Golden Gate. That leaves three.
Scrunchy is a word.
Scrunchy is not a word.
Second floor, northwest three.
Securing bridge clips.
SECURITY GUARD: You didn't have a delivery?
Security technology... Sensor techniques, who knows?
See you Thursday night.
Senior research fellow in astrophysics.
Setec Astronomy, whatever that is.
Setec Astronomy.
Setec Astronomy.
Setec doesn't mean anything.
Setec.
Shall I phone you or nudge you?
She lives in Montreal where she handles her family's real estate holdings,
She supports Gunter but figured he was cheating on her,
She was supposed to drop a cake off.
She was trying to tell him something, and it was making him...
She was with him this afternoon.
She's been withholding marital favors from Gunter for years,
She's dying to talk to you too, Greg.
She's in the way.
She's lovely, Marty.
She's... She's old. Excuse me.
Shh!
Shit!
Shoes?
Since when am I the one...
Since when? You know what happens to your face?
Single, 6'1", 174 pounds, must wear glasses to drive,
Sir?
Sit down, Werner.
Sixty two counts?
Skip it. I see him.
Slow.
Sneaking a foreign intelligence service that might kill us
So far, no one has been able to accomplish
So I think I'm gonna buy me a Winnebago
So it's a code breaker.
So Lord knows, I wanted that box,
So make yourself comfortable. We're all staying right here tonight.
So relax, Crease.
So the government cannot read it.
So this box really wouldn't work on them.
So we have to assume the sensors are on too.
So we need someone's card. And their voice.
So you have my box.
So, how much do you want?
So, it worked for them. It shouldn't give us too many problems.
So, people hire you to break into their places
So, what about travel? Where do you like to go? Europe? Mexico?
So, what are you guys gonna do with your share of the money?
So. So.
Sol never did...
Some sort of voiceprint l.D. I'll check it out.
Somebody talked.
Sorry to waste your time, gentlemen. I don't work for the government.
Sorry, Liz. Standard procedure. Trash from the guy's house.
Sorry, Liz. Standard procedure. Trash from the guy's house.
Sorry, Marty. We don't have a lot of choice here.
Sorry, okay?
Sorry.
Sorry.
Sort of an old friend.
Spare a quarter? Help me out. The government's taken away my home.
Special extraterrestrial?
Specializes in large number theory, prime numbers, factoring.
Stay in that quadrant.
Stock market? Yes.
Such an approach is purely theoretical.
Such constructions yet.
Sure you know which one to cut?
Sure, fine.
Sure, with a box like that they could read the FBl's mail.
Sure. It's in the bedroom.
Surprise party for Marge on the second floor.
Tahiti is not in Europe.
Take a look at the bottom of a monkey cage.
Talk to him.
Talk to me. You know what?
Telephone, lamp, answering machine.
Telephone!
Tell it to stop leaping. We are not back together.
Terminated, 1987. Why was that?
Thank you for the trust, fellows.
Thank you very much. That's all I ask.
Thank you very much. That's all I ask.
Thank you, sir.
Thank you. Burgundy interior.
Thank you. This is my last computer date.
Thanks. Nice apartment.
That I could fit comfortably into.
That is the way you should have left it.
That was good.
That wouldn't kill for that thing.
That wouldn't kill us all for that thing.
That you know what he thinks you don't know you know.
That'll do. Punch it in.
That'll lead you to the elevator chase.
That's cute.
That's just my day job.
That's not a word, "scrunchy".
That's not easy, what I just did.
That's not important, is it?
That's not my problem. Now beat it.
That's right.
That's what you'll be carrying across the floor at two inches per second.
That's why she divorced me. How about your friend Jessie?
The best motion sensor on the market.
The complete blueprints.
The connection was made after a Bay Area radio station received an anonymous tip,
The FBI can't work for us without approval from a congressional committee.
The FBI says the fingerprints found in the embassy car
The FBl'd give him twins. No!
The first one is a closet.
The government found me.
The guy in the cap.
The ideal diet, don't laugh, is the bottom of a monkey cage.
The man who folded this tube of Crest
The National Association to Legalize Marijuana.
The NSA never had an office in San Francisco.
The one thing I can't do is hurry.
The only thing it would really be good for is spying on Americans.
The paper said that Greg was killed.
The probable level of security is very low.
The problems always get worse. Why is that?
The project's called Setec Astronomy. We don't know what Setec stands for.
The Republican National Committee has revealed it is bankrupt.
The Republican Party just made a generous donation to the Black Panthers.
The road. When you were in the trunk, what did the road sound like?
The road. When you were in the trunk, what did the road sound like?
The son of a bitch.
The system perpetuates itself at the expense of the people.
The whole building says, "Go away."
The world changed on us, Marty, and without our help.
The world isn't run by weapons anymore, or energy or money.
Their West Coast operations are right out of Los Angeles.
Then a desk...
Then get the FBI.
Then I went to Canada.
Then just keep on loving him.
Then kill the lights. Whistler, unplug that thing.
Then they will check this database in Washington, D.C.,
Then we had financial troubles.
Then who did?
There exists an intriguing possibility for a far more elegant approach.
There I was in prison, and one day I help a couple of nice older gentlemen
There is not Mrs. Janek.
There isn't a government on this planet
There she is, late as usual.
There was a recurring sound.
There was chattering. It was right at the end.
There.
There's a cocktail party at the reservoir?
There's a fire escape at the end of the north corridor.
There's a fire escape on the north side. Is it clear?
There's a gate about 30 yards behind you.
There's a mathematician named Gunter Janek. You know him?
There's a three foot area in the corner,
There's a war out there, old friend, a world war.
There's high voltage on the perimeter.
There's no cake back here.
These guys are good.
These maps could then be used to combine splitting information from all the...
They found me, Liz.
They keep the lights on all night,
They killed him.
They made the second leg.
They offered me a deal. If I take their offer, they clear my record,
They probably were government...
They threw me in a trunk, drove around in circles.
They took away my home. Help me out? The government took away my home.
They turn out to be, let us say, good family men.
They're across Transcom. You've got about 20 seconds, Bish.
They're all true. Thanks, Carl.
They're corrupt. Result?
They're letting her go.
They're making some kind of box, a little black box.
They've started the trace.
Think bigger.
Think I'm joking? Looks like they just put it in.
Third floor, southwest corner.
This box doesn't exist.
This guy's good.
This is a mathematician named Dr. Gunter Janek.
This is not a car dealership, pal.
This is not a test. The penetration is live. The target is unaware.
This is ridiculous.
This is the brass ring. You gotta think bigger thoughts.
This is the same answering machine Janek used for the shell of his box.
This is Wallace. I'm in northeast three. I'm gonna check it out.
This is where I get off. Nice to see you again. I'm out of here.
This isn't a date, dummy. This is a scientific exploration, a tutorial.
This isn't just about large number theory. It's about cryptography.
This might work.
This'll measure stress in the voice on the other end.
Through the back service entrance.
Throughout the world and off two satellites.
To Athens, Lisbon, Madrid and Scotland.
To continue doing bad things at the expense of those who don't have it.
To explain it to me.
To keep people out of restricted areas at Fort Meade.
To keep us out is not what we do.
To make sure no one can break into their places?
To protect the organization.
Today I can in public come and learn your scientists' new secrets.
Today we can't trust anybody.
Tomorrow they will retrieve your fingerprints
Too late.
Too many secrets.
Transfer to 53 01138.
True.
Try aspirin.
Try prison.
Try research.
Try the ones coming off the white trunk, Mother. These don't sound right.
Try to break the other fellow's codes.
Turn it off.
Turn left. Floor it.
Two guys show up, say they're government, and you just buy it.
Two spools of wire and a magnifying lamp.
Uh huh, uh huh. Yeah.
Uh huh. Got it. Move to another one.
Uh uh.
Unbelievable!
Unbelievable.
Understood, understood.
Unless the NSA didn't want anybody to know about Janek's little black box.
Unload the van.
Until then, you stay.
Upstairs?
Using the Artin map, we might induce homomorphisms...
Vast real estate holdings.
Velma, Velma Janek.
Very good, Bish. Remind me to make you an honorary blind person.
W, G...
Wait a second.
Wait a second. Wait a minute!
Wait one minute.
Wait, Crease.
Wait.
Wait. I have smashing idea. Martin! Martin!
Wallace. That's him.
Want a cappuccino?
Want some coffee or something?
Was down in Managua, Nicaragua, the day before the earthquake?
Way out of profile for a guy like that.
We all have our little secrets, don't we?
We all know what happened to him in there.
We also clean up your record.
We are going to institute some security around here.
We are the United States government. We don't do that sort of thing.
We can wrap you in a full body suit of neoprene, heat resistant rubber,
We can't. Why not?
We don't have the time. So, why me?
We had nothing to do with this Janek business.
We have a deal. Right?
We have to meet.
We haven't paid the typist since January, so it's either me or Whistler.
We intercepted a fax last week. Here.
We know you can keep your mouth shut.
We never had any luck in breaking them,
We protect our government's communications,
We spoke on the phone.
We throw gobs of money at them.
We tried to recruit him in '83. Drinking problem, married three times.
We weren't here. We didn't talk. You don't know me.
We will be ready for him.
We won, they lost, you know? It's been in a couple of papers.
We won't get in. It's encrypted.
We'll use his office to get into Cosmo's. Can we get plates?
We're gonna change the world, Marty.
We're late for the party on the second floor.
We're not everybody, Martin. We're your partners. You tell us.
We're not getting back together.
We're not getting paid that much, Carl.
We're the good guys, Marty.
We're up.
We've got customers.
We've got guards at every stairwell. Can you hear if there's any...
We've got video, all eight of them.
We've heard a lot of great things about you.
Well, between now and then,
Well, Bish, I can't speak for the other guys, but I'm in it for the money.
Well, did you go over any speed bumps? Gravel? How about a bridge?
Well, everything seems to be in order.
Well, I can't prove it, but...
Well, I just had this weird feeling that my money wasn't safe here anymore.
Well, I think I can.
Well, if it isn't Robin Hood.
Well, l... Highway. A regular highway.
Well, let's say my name is Mr. Abbott.
Well, sort of, eat, sort of on the run. I'm really busy, so...
Well, you know, I've never actually had a really cool car
Well, you know, someone like Liz.
Well?
Werner just pulled up. He's got Liz with him.
WERNER: Do you know, the best thing about this meal,
WERNER: I'm very concerned about what we eat.
Werner? Hi. I'm Doris.
What a thing to do! Could I just make a quick phone call?
What am I listening to now, Mother?
What an interesting name you have. How exactly do you pronounce it?
What are you doing up?
What are you doing? I didn't get the money.
What did it sound like?
What did it sound like?
What did it sound like? Did you go through a tunnel?
What do you got?
What do you say we go for a ride, Doris?
What do you want, Mr. Bishop?
What does it say where this is?
What good would you do anybody in prison?
What happened?
What happened?
What I will tell you now I cannot tell you in this building.
What the hell's going on here? Cosmo, what...
What time is the hand off?
What was the name of that girl that we used on the cereal company sneak last year?
What we see and hear, how we work, what we think.
What?
What?
What?
What?
What?
What?
What?
What?
What?
What?
What?
What? Don't say "Oh no."
What? Who is Wallace working for?
What's behind the hill?
What's going on?
What's he need an answering machine for?
What's really important is that none of this ever happened.
What's reverse?
What's the exit where the railroad tracks are?
What's with the lobby? Still just the one guard.
What's wrong with this country, Marty? Money. You taught me that.
When the Air Force brought this space visitor to the White House
When they faked the Apollo moon landings.
When you get the box, then you give us geography lessons.
Where do you get H? Next to the L.
Where'd you get the 50 bucks?
Where's Martin?
Which I'm now able to access, thanks to you.
Which is probably what we'll have to do
While the guards with the shotguns are called.
While the number field sieve is the best method currently known,
Whistler, he's reading.
Whistler, hit record.
Whistler, I hate to tell you this, but you're blind.
Whistler, that was great!
Whistler, you've got to do it.
WHISTLER; Oh no.
WHISTLER: And you can't pass through
WHISTLER: Anybody want to black out New England?
WHISTLER: Did you hear a foghorn?
WHISTLER: Good. Mother's pretty close.
WHISTLER: Oh no.
WHISTLER: Yeah, sounds like he's making something.
Whistler! That was great!
Whistler?
Who are you guys?
Who are you?
Who hired you?
Who melts from the very first time our eyes meet.
Who promised me we would not get in trouble and who, I might add, did not.
Who the hell is that?
Who, Greg? He's harmless.
Who's he working for?
Who's next? Let's see.
Who's this?
Whoa.
Why is it so hot in here?
Why? Who's he working for?
With a big kitchen, water bed, big kitchen.
With what? We got bupkus! They'll give us 20 years in the electric chair.
WOMAN ON PHONE: Fort Meade, Maryland. Good afternoon.
Works at a think tank called the Coolidge Institute.
Wow!
Wow. Unbelievable.
Yeah, but she'd never do it. She regards this work as juvenfle.
Yeah, frankly.
Yeah, he was framed. But he's got the best hands in the business.
Yeah, I do. There's nobody there.
Yeah, I know. I just wanted to see something. Don't worry, Don.
Yeah, I'm on.
Yeah, Janek's file.
Yeah, just go upstairs and then walk straight forward.
Yeah, right, the FBI.
Yeah, she's buff. Fellows...
Yeah, sometimes I don't understand myself.
Yeah, we got the alarm.
Yeah, we still spy on them. They still spy on us.
Yeah, why?
Yeah?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah. No way.
Yeah. Right.
Yeah. Yeah.
Yeah. Yeah.
Yes, clear.
Yes, I can guarantee your safety.
Yes, we do. We make the call, but we make it our way.
Yes, you are.
Yes!
Yes!
Yes! The alarm's always the green one.
Yes.
Yes.
Yes.
Yes.
Yes.
Yes.
Yes.
Yes.
You always had to get the girl, didn't you?
You and I are not getting back together.
You and me, we're just pawns in this ugly little game.
You are clear all the way up to the mantrap.
You are crazy.
You are?
You are.
You can distribute it among the poor, if you like.
You can have anything you want, and you're asking for my phone number?
You can tell us how we can help you.
You could have shared this with me.
You didn't really think I was gonna let you have this box, did you?
You disappeared once before, my friend. I suggest you do it again.
You do what you have to do, Cos.
You don't go around telling everybody.
You don't know anything about a wife.
You got hit over the head twice and got thrown out of a speeding car?
You got us stumped.
You got yourself a bench with a soldering gun,
You gotta drive. I'll talk you through it. Now, hurry.
You gotta eat. You want some food?
You gotta not tell him you know. Ha!
You have a club. It's a boys' club.
You have a little clubhouse. You probably have a secret handshake.
You have fruit, greens...
You have to trust me.
You just give me one good reason why.
You know how not to get caught.
You know it doesn't work. It never did.
You know, I could've joined the NSA, but they found out my parents were married.
You know, sexual problems, financial troubles.
You know, you're right. We ought to leave.
You know?
You look awful.
You look terrific.
You must know they will never let either of you live if you try to get out.
You must trust me.
You said there isn't a government on earth
You seeing anybody? Shh!
You set me up, Greg. No, I do not believe you.
You should not have come back, Marty.
You son of a bitch.
You still keep tabs on all our agents.
You tell me.
You think I like it? I've got a family! We have no other choice.
You too, midnight.
You were taking all these chances, all these big chances,
You were the one who got away with things while I never did.
You will be my guests.
You will buy me two round trip, first class tickets
You will give me the box right now, or I will kill you right now.
You win, I lose. That's what you want, isn't it?
You won't know who to trust.
You wouldn't. Never mind. I would. What, please?
You.
You'd be dead.
You'll be all right. Find the heating ducts above the furnace.
You'll be getting our full report and analysis in a few days.
You'll have to break through fire walls. Have him go south.
You're a private investigator.
You're damn right, now!
You're definitely not getting paid that much.
You're doing fine. Doing fine.
You're gonna follow him, aren't you?
You've managed to stay underground more than 20 years.
Your codes are entirely different from ours.
Your FBI is such a pain in the ass.
Your husband knows about cattle mutilations. He's ex CIA.
Your job is to find that little black box. Let us take a look at it.
Your pal Cosmo got 12 years, and that was without flight to evade prosecution.
Zooming in.
9:00 a.m.

"Come on. I want you to say it for me just one time."
"Dear Compudater. Welcome to the world of automated compatibility."
"My voice is my passport. Verify me"?
"Passport. You have such a beautiful voice."
