Mission Impossible (1966) s03e20 Episode Script

The Bunker (2)

Good afternoon, Mr.
Phelps.
The man you're looking at is Dr.
Erich Rojak, the brilliant scientist who is being held in an underground laboratory by a totalitarian enemy government.
Because of his fear that they will kill his wife, Anna, Rojak has been forced to work on a small, but extremely powerful long-range missile, which, if successful, could dangerously affect the balance of world power.
Another unfriendly government fears this even more than we do and has sent this professional killer, Alexander Ventlos, to make certain that Rojak never completes his work.
Your mission, Jim, should you decide to accept it, is to rescue Rojak and his wife and destroy the test missile.
As always, should you or any of your IM Force be caught or killed, the secretary will disavow any knowledge of your actions.
This tape will self-destruct in five seconds.
Good luck, Jim.
The shot in this hypodermic will give Rojak all the necessary symptoms.
However, Jim, this drug cannot be pre-mixed.
You'll have to mix it just before you get ready to send it.
How long will the symptoms last? Long enough, barring any interference.
- From Ventlos.
- Yes.
He's no ordinary killer.
This is Ventlos.
Now look at these.
- They're all Ventlos? - We think so.
How long do you intend to be lecturing in Europe? One week.
Gentlemen, I'm only Dr.
Mendel's assistant.
Dr.
Rojak's laboratory has only one door.
Only one thing would open it.
Sound.
Voice code.
A certain combination of words.
Yes, but more sophisticated than that.
The words are: January, suborbital, denomination.
- Who are you? - Please, Mrs.
Rojak.
- But I don't know you.
- There's no time for explanations.
We're here to help you.
We're here to get you and your husband out of here.
Major Thorvold, this is my security officer, Captain Preado.
- Captain.
- Captain, look at this.
Yes, I was just explaining to the colonel why I was sent here.
OBQ Central has just learned a professional killer named Alexander Ventlos has been sent to kill Dr.
Rojak.
Each man's hand will be stamped with a chemical solution.
If you please, captain? So.
This imprint is the only thing that will be registered electronically by this equipment.
Now, you will do exactly what Dr.
Dromm says at once.
We don't have the time for further discussion.
- No.
- Very well.
What are you going to do? Have his wife brought down here.
Anna Rojak.
Sergeant, what is this? The woman that was brought here for interrogation, she has escaped.
Start a thorough search of the entire building.
Seen anything or anyone? Hey.
Hey, hasn't anyone used the fire escape? No.
Why? This is Major Strat.
This is a priority call.
Put me through to Colonel Zeigler in the laboratory immediately.
That was Major Strat.
He's been informed the woman we sent to the State Security Building escaped.
What? What about Anna Rojak? She's on her way to the bunker now.
This is Major Strat.
Anna Rojak is here.
Good.
Good.
Have her searched and bring her down.
Major Thorvold, Anna Rojak has arrived.
Dr.
Rojak, I'm sure there's no need to explain why your wife is here.
Do you intend to continue working? You've already had my answer.
Zeigler, if you kill her, you no longer have a hold on me.
He's right, colonel.
He will change his mind when he sees her dying bullet by bullet.
He will not let it go that far.
Now, major, get out of my way.
I think your idea is excellent, colonel.
- If I might make a suggestion? - What? I think it might be more effective if Rojak had a few minutes to think about it.
As a matter of fact, it might be much more effective if he thought about it with his wife.
Major Strat, has she been thoroughly searched? - Yes, sir.
- Dr.
Dromm, open the door.
January, suborbital, denomination.
Oh, Erich.
Erich.
Who are you? Where's my wife? She's safe.
Keep your voice down.
We're here to get you out.
- You must continue to work for them.
- No.
- You have no other choice.
- This is some sort of trick.
I don't be Erich, please.
You can't let them torture me.
I couldn't stand it.
Erich, please, you can't let them do it to me.
You must continue working for them.
Strat, bring her out.
At 2:00, remove the grill in the ventilator shaft.
You'll receive further instructions then.
Please, Erich, please.
You must do it, please.
Close the door.
What is your answer? I'll go on working.
Considering the successful escape from State Security Headquarters, perhaps we had better keep her here.
I agree.
Her presence might be necessary if Dr.
Rojak proves to be uncooperative.
Preado, take her to the detention room.
Dr.
Rojak, you will complete your final computations.
Go.
The tricky part will be in the last section of the shaft.
The guidance signal isn't as strong there.
Go on with your work.
How long can we keep up that power level without burning the system out? I don't know, Willy.
When can we expect your final computations on the orbital path, doctor? When I am done with them, Dromm.
- And when will that be? - When I tell you.
You are stalling, doctor.
How can you expect me to complete my final computation when you're always interrupting me, Dromm? I wish to see your findings.
I want to make sure When I am through with them you can see them.
- Now will you kindly leave? - No.
I have made my own calculations.
If our findings correlate, it would speed matters greatly.
I don't have time to sit and correct your notes, or whatever they are.
- Now listen to me, Dr.
Rojak - I don't want to discuss it with you.
- Will you go away? - No, you will do as I say.
This arguing is wasting time.
I agree.
Perhaps at this stage, it would be better to humour Dr.
Rojak rather than antagonize him.
Dr.
Dromm.
Dr.
Dromm.
Let Dr.
Rojak study his notes by himself.
January, suborbital, denomination.
Twenty-five more feet.
Colonel.
Open the door! January, suborbital, denomination.
Get them outside.
Get Dr.
Taber down here at once.
Dr.
Taber to laboratory complex immediately.
Is it serious, colonel? I do not know yet, captain.
- Have these people go back to work.
- Men.
Colonel, they have checked the second stage section for sabotage and have found nothing.
Good.
Have it loaded on the missile hoist.
Colonel, what is it? - This way, Dr.
Taber.
- Thank you.
What is it, doctor? I don't know.
It appears to be a heart attack.
Is he dying? I can't say.
I'm not a heart specialist.
One will have to be called for.
Then we must have the best.
Dr.
Rojak is vital to this project.
Who can we get? Well, let me see, there are several good men.
- There's Dr.
Kritz in Austria - Dr.
Taber.
Yes? Would Dr.
Devery be one of them? Why, yes.
Yes.
And he is here lecturing at the medical institute.
Get him, doctor.
Dr.
Devery.
Yes.
Yes, of course.
I'll be there immediately.
Under no condition is the patient to be moved.
Subvalvular muscular hypertrophy.
What is that, doctor? In simple terms, it's a breakdown in the muscles controlling the left ventricle.
Of course, I can't be absolutely certain until I run some further tests.
Will he live? He has a good chance if we perform heart surgery in the next few hours.
Doctor, do they have the necessary equipment at Vadinsky Hospital? - Yes, we do.
- Have him taken there.
No, he can't be moved until we get a life-support system here.
- Order one now, doctor.
- Major, please.
Vadinsky Hospital.
It is urgent.
Vadinsky Hospital.
Anna.
Anna, Anna, Anna, Anna, Anna.
- Who is he calling for? - His wife.
- Where is she? - Not far from here.
Has she seen him? No, it would be difficult to arrange, doctor.
She should.
In cases like this, the will to live is most important.
Yes, doctor.
- Major, get Anna Rojak down here.
- Yes, sir.
You know, doctor, if we could make a temporary life-support system here, we could bring Rojak up to the main entrance.
It would save a lot time, and I believe we just might have the equipment with which to do it, if you would like to see it, doctor.
- Yes.
- Captain Preado.
- Dr.
Taber, you stay with Dr.
Rojak.
- Yes.
Captain Preado, escort Dr.
Devery to the medical section.
Yes, sir.
This way, Dr.
Devery.
Oh, doctor, the ambulance is on its way.
Thank you.
Major Strat, close these doors.
This way, doctor.
January, suborbital, denomination.
Oh, Erich.
Oh, Erich.
Oh, Erich.
Doctor, I'll open the doors for you.
January, suborbital, denomination.
Well, doctor, what do you think? Do you think we can make a temporary life-support system? Is something wrong? Why the injection, Rollin? It's Ventlos.
Shut the doors! January, suborbital, denomination.
Leave him.
Get all the personnel to the ground level.
Please, colonel.
Move, move.
What is going on? I didn't want to start a panic.
He rearranged the fuel mix.
The whole place will go in minutes.
- Can you not stop it? - No, it has gone too far.
Nothing can stop it.
Out.
Out.
Everybody out.
Out.
- What's happening, major? - No time for explanations.
We must move Rojak immediately.
Doctor, in the elevator.
All in the elevator.
Hang on, listen.
Take him to the missile hoist.
It is the only elevator that can get to the top on time.
Come, to the hoist.
Get Rojak's plans.
Stop.
Stop.
Where are you going? Stop Please come back.
Please! Only about a minute left.
