:10:04
Yes?
:10:06
I'd just like you to know
that I came back of my own free will.
:10:09
As an S.A. I. C... I could have refused
,
this assignment. But I didn't.
:10:13
S.A. I.C.? What is that?
:10:15
Ma'am, you know what that is.
:10:17
No, I really don't.
:10:19
You do.
:10:21
Don't tell me what I do and don't know.
That is not your place.
:10:26
What is a "saic"?
:10:29
S.A.I.C. Stands for
"special agent in charge."
:10:35
Oh, I see. A special agent, are we?
And in charge, no less.
:10:40
My, my, my.
:10:42
You rarely meet someone who's
a secret agent who's also in charge.
:10:46
And why is he in char ge?
:10:49
Well. Because he's
so doggone special.
:10:52
And you did not come back
of your own free will.
:10:55
If you had a free will,
you'd be miles from here.
:10:59
I have some very exciting
news for you.
:11:02
I have an inoperable
brain tumor.
:11:07
I have bought you and your men
a SCUD missile launcher.
:11:11
We are going to the opera in Columbus.
Which of those do you think is true?
:11:16
When?
:11:19
I would like to drive to Columbus
a week from Friday.
:11:23
Yes, ma'am. May I say,
it is good to see you getting out again?
:11:27
- Is it?
- Yes, ma'am.
:11:30
Thank you, Douglas.
That's very patronizing of you.
:11:35
I suppose you couldn't
care less about opera.
:11:39
- No, ma'am, I couldn't.
- Of course not.
:11:41
You're a typical,
red-blooded American male.
:11:44
You'd probably rather watch the reruns
of "Mr. Ed" on television, wouldn't you?
:11:49
Tell me.
:11:52
If you had to choose
between opera and "Mr. Ed"...
:11:56
I'd choose "Mr. Ed"
in a second.
