TRANSCRIPT:
We have made provisions for calling back our best agent.
I'm taking you to an unexplored part of the Brazilian jungle.
Don't worry, Brazil is a paradise on Earth.
I don't want to go to paradise yet.
What if I don't accept?
I get the idea you wouldn't mind going to Brazil to learn how to do the samba.
Is that an invitation?
No, it's an order.
I think we've got the Caribbean network sewn up.
You'll find a hundred others over in Rio.
Under hypnotic suggestion?
We think so.
Under hypnotic suggestion?
We think so.
I don't like attending meetings, either.
(sounds of fighting)
And his orders are to arrive in Rio tomorrow as Mr. Fields.
You'll be able to use him without his knowing it.
I guess that was the only way the federal government could get him.

TRANSCRIPT:
I don't need to tell you that brainwashing isn't just a word.
I haven't seen such righteous ferocity in years.
Much of what we thought to be true we discovered was misinformation. 
I was meant to find the notebook.
And everything that followed was designed to look good to the other side.
What's happened to your sense of the absurd?
The albatross is flying high, right?
That'll be the day the shrimp learns to whistle.
I'm sure none of us know what on Earth you're talking about. 
Chicago was in '59.
We hit the moon since then.
I don't like getting mixed up in these backroom talks. 
I'm no politician, I'm a schoolteacher. 
Do you want my help, or not?
No hope of stopping this, is there?
I'm afraid there are too many people in on it.
You gave yourself away.
Learn your subject better.
It's only algebra and notes on sub-atomic particles
but it's lethal enough to wipe out the continental United States.
They look pretty harmless to me.

TRANSCRIPT:
North America's getting soft,
and the rest of the world is getting tough.
Very, very tough.
We're entering savage new times.
And we're going to need to be pure, and direct, and strong
if we're going to survive them.
Here stands America
With egg on her face.
Why? Why?? The CIA is involved
And probably the KGB.
With the Arabs and the Israelis sitting in the middle.
Do you play chess?
Yes, but I prefer a game with
a better chance of cheating.
Someone's trying to inflame the Middle East
I'm flying to Paris to report to International Headquarters
If there was something for me to know, Ed,
they would have told me by now.
They? Who's they?
A lot of them come from universities.
Beatniks. Pukes. Anarchists. Perverts. Theatre people.
I'm an old confirmed Marxist.
But not especially pro-Soviet?
After what's happened?
Can I be President?
Don't be funny.
You've got to tell the people 
what the government's planning to do to them!
I suppose you could look at it that way.
He's capable of any atrocity.
Any unspeakable act.
He's beginning to sound like my father. 
Time is all I have to gamble with.
You have so little.
And one day, I hope you will grow old,
and live in a house like this,
full of shadows and memories,
and you will spend your time remembering
that in your country's hour of need,
you tried to stab it in the back!
You stood before the world, and lied!
It's understandable.
No one likes being blackmailed.
They're coming to get you!
There'll be a grand jury!
They'll indict you!
And there'll be a trial!
That'll go on forever!
We must find a man with perfect knowledge
of Italian, French, and a 
complete understanding of nuclear science,
and the man must also be an expert sailor.
Please do your best. 
I agree with you – guns are stupid.
But ours is a stupid world.
Now and then, there's a flash of justice.
Check him, see if he's armed.
It is more than theory, but less than a proven fact.
You should be grateful to be taken out of 
this boring world of shoddy fakes and computer mentalities.

TRANSCRIPT:
And I haven't kept up with politics
I should, I know, but...
Where did you get these facts?
You've got the same facts.
You've always had them.
You just read them differently.
Is this another lie?
Of course it is.
And if some group is powerful enough, 
and fanatic enough,
they can take over whole nations.
We know very little about him.
His base of operations is in Rome.
Oh, sure, sure. 
You toss a few names around, 
and we drop the whole matter.
Its members are within the 
decision-making echelons of your government.
Not a very Christian things to do.
We are obliged before God and the Law
to judge the accused for their deeds.
And pray, at least, that one of us is right.
As you may know,
our constitution protects any religion
as long as no crime is involved.
You mean to say you don't know?
It makes no difference.
The deal's already been made.
By whom?
Often, their responsibilities are to 
support the government in some countries,
to foment rebellion in others,
and sometimes to bring down the government.
I don’t believe you.
You’re a fool!
This is one official secret I shall be glad to let you keep.

TRANSCRIPT:
Don't you think this whole thing's a bit silly?
Grown men trying to steal a million dollars!
Now do you see how stupid you were to get out of NATO?
He carries all the top-secret formulas of the United States defense establishment in his head.
They're after you now, Frank.
This breakdown in American security is far too convenient for my liking.
I thought this job was done by a professional. 
It is a recent invention of science, and a top secret.
What kind of a chance do you think a brainwashed psycho like you 
would have of convincing anybody about anything?
With the country in such political chaos, almost anything could happen. 
Almost anyone could come into power.
You probably could get away with it.
It's possible.
Indubitably, this power would be making a terrible mistake.
Also possible.
We must accept the world as it is,
Not as we would wish it to be.
Well, I begin to see that the other side has a point of view,
And that always makes life a bit difficult.
Very soon, you will begin to see some return on your investment.
I see, it's the old eye-for-an-eye, tooth-for-a-tooth bit.
The earth herself will cry black tears.
I'm giving you the only chance you got to save your skin.
I want to turn government witness.
I'll tell everything I know.
I'm just trying to underline the stupidity of it.
You and I, fighting to death over a little piece of land.

TRANSCRIPT:
I only saw her for one second.
She didn't see me at all.
But I'll bet a month hasn't gone by since
that I haven't thought of that girl.
Seek and ye shall find,
Knock and it will be opened unto you.
Seems to me I have knocked, 
and the door has remained shut.
There's a girl traveling on that train.
An American.
She knows what's happening here today.
Everything's in this report.
Study it — and destroy it.
According to this, he's got a wife in Leningrad.
About her, we know even less.
If you'll just tell me where she is, I'll talk to her myself.
I'm very sorry, but I haven't the faintest idea.
She's gone.
She's not there.
I'll look in the directory, but I don't think we'll find her.
She never speaks to anybody.
Well, she's not exactly inconspicuous,
And she drove away in a red convertible.
That woman is dangerous!
A lonely man dramatizes life for himself.
I must learn not to do that.
She never sang at our place, I'm positive.
She wants to trap you!
She's not so dumb, is she?
if you're still looking for the girl, I'm sorry, it's too late.
She's not here,
and don't ask me where she's gone.
Where is this girl? (rimshot)
How much does she know?
If she has our secret, other people may have it, too.
The woman you're waiting for is up here!
Do you remember seeing this girl on the train?
The girl with the passport marked "Danger!"
She's got an instinct for it.
There are some things she has not forgotten.
Meanwhile, I will reflect on how fortunate I am...
...Not to be related to you.

TRANSCRIPT:
Have you ever been in Hong Kong?
No, but I'd be happy to go there.
It's possible you'll go there in the near future.
We have too much money,
and we're both trying to find ways of using it 
to make our lives more interesting.
What about the smartest, most dangerous, 
most vicious man in the world today?
I went through a lot of trouble to get that bird out of China.
It's only a coincidence, but a fortunate coincidence. 
Of the kind that can happen only once in a lifetime.
Fortunate for me, or for you?
Today, democracy can ebb away.
I doubt that it was an accident.
I think for the moment, 
we will leave them in suspense.
I've come from Shanghai to speak to your chief.
China is famous for its artistic handling of torture.
You're going to start at the office one morning
And find that all the streets signs are in Mongolian.
The man we're interested in will be coming up
on the right hand side of the screen in a minute.
If they can provoke him into enough trouble,
the Army will step in to save the country.
That's the music that represents victory, huh?
Or defeat. The music is the same.
I have a nasty feeling it means
someone's gotten hold of the names
of all the Western agents in China.  
The merchandise will be in the trunk of your car.
Don't ask any questions.
Despite all the agents I assigned to protect him, 
Coleman had to save himself.
He was just too smart.
Thus we dispense with the formalities 
connected with crossing frontiers.
How much do you charge for murder?

TRANSCRIPT:
The first thing we have to do is to get rid of our friend, Mr. Coleman.
That's the kind of thing they'd give their right arms for.
You know, the way you talk is very graphic.
“Danger: official secret.“
Well, go on, go on – read it!
Here’s something for a man to dream about.
His own personal United States treasury.
Would you like to read this, and sign it?
What is it?
It's just a formality.
What kind of people are they, exactly?
He was saying that they’ve got a kind of long-term policy.
That they want to infiltrate themselves into the mind of the country.
But that they’re not in any kind of hurry.
Nazis?
But of course, they don't call themselves that anymore.
Well, there’s one particular arrest that I’m anxious to hear about.
Which one is that, Sir?
The traitor.
How near are you to discovering his identity?
Well, I would say, Sir, that we're getting warm.
My home away from home was the Hotel Florida, the spa for spies.
They even had a safe at the desk 
where guests could check their microfilm.
This same propaganda works in reverse.
Esrever ni skrow adnagaporp emas siht
Do you know what that means in Russia?
Yes, I think so.
It means you’re an expendable hero.
I’ll insist the investigation of you be dropped. 
I'll also tell him the evidence is hogwash.
I’m sorry about arresting you.
It was a simple device to avoid suspicion.

TRANSCRIPT:
When you first take this drug
you'll begin to have marvelous hallucinations
then fall into a sort of trance.
Then you'll become an automaton
bending all of your willpower and intelligence to my will alone!
Our purpose is to fulfill man's greatest vision.
To accomplish this, we must start by taking over 
the most powerful nations who would try to oppose us.
The organization has practically limitless funds available to it,
and has already infiltrated the intelligence services of several countries,
including our own. 
I'll have to put that in my next report.
My teacher still says I should give all this up,
and earn an honest living
playing piano in a bar somewhere.
With a face like yours, you've got to play something.
I've got all the piano players I need.
Our agent doesn't believe in violence.
He has much greater faith in the power of money.
Maybe we can outwit the Nazis at their own game.
I came to tell you the truth.
Are you out of your mind?
He's fabulously wealthy.
Middle East oil holdings and diamond mines.
But we've discovered that in recent years
he has been directly or indirectly responsible for a series of atrocious crimes.
Before he left South Africa, 
he stole something from somebody 
who didn't even realize he'd been robbed.
I'd like to show you something we've worked out.
Jack, get the light.
Do you play anything besides jazz?
The FBI wants me to be musical.
They can brainwash a vacuum cleaner.
Excellent.
When the mission is completed, I will hand over the sum we agreed upon.
(Woman laughing)
Well, I don't see what's so funny.
Monte Carlo to me is just a memory.
In any case, it isn't gambling, it's investment.
There's a lot of hard cash in Switzerland
that they stole from the Jews.
I'm convinced that man is an imposter.
If you must gamble, use legitimate currency. 
Every night, some dead Nazi comes crawling out of the woodwork.
He's asking the impossible.
Track down all US agents and find out their assignments.

TRANSCRIPT:
"I intend to be a secret agent when I grow up!"

When the normal warning signs are broken
And illusion travels in the air
From the corner of your eye
You watch the world go by
Look out, ‘cause there’s danger everywhere

If you only knew
You'd be falling out of line
Falling out under the gimlet sky

Have you heard the news?
Walk a mile in my shoes
Wonder what it's like to be a spy

"We have learned of the existence of a vast espionage network."
"Their aim is to compromise the United States."
"I give you my word – this is NOT for publication!"

Don't you know some words have two meanings
Can't confirm but neither can deny
No matter what you say
They're having it both ways
Who's to blame, again? The other side!

If you only knew
You'd be falling out of line
Falling out under the gimlet sky

Have you heard the news?
Walk a mile in my shoes
Wonder what it's like to be a spy

"The television system has been sabotaged, according to plan."
"Your mind has been prepared for the joy of complete obedience."
"Well, where do we go from here?"

Send the message with the words unspoken
Send it to the one who isn't there
Well, it's the temper of the times
Read between the lines
Now it's more than fate that isn't fair

Shadowed by this Secret Agent Theme Song 
More than one way now to get away 
Spreading out across the land 
When you're talkin' to the hand 
Wonder if there'll be another way
Wonder if you'll see the light of day
