Istanbul Page #4

Synopsis: Adventurer James Brennan returns to Istanbul five years after being ejected under suspicion of diamond smuggling. In flashback, he recalls his last days there, his torrid love affair with Stephanie Bauer, the efforts of shady characters to obtain a strange ornament he received from a friend, and Stephanie's disappearance during a fire. Now that Brennan is back, Stephanie (or her double) reappears, and there's still the question of where the supposedly smuggled diamonds are...

You know I will, darling.

Yes.

You're going to have

to leave without me.

Too many long nights alone.

Not even a date.

So I got a little too lonely,

And now you're a little too late.

You never would write.

You never would call.

While I had the blues,

you were havin' a ball.

You thought that I'd

be here to run to

I'm gonna do to you

what I've been done to.

Too bad about you, my friend,

It could've been great.

But I was a little too lonely.

And now you're a little too late.

Say, that was okay, fellas.

We'll put that in tonight.

And be on time for a change.

Hi, fellas. What's your problem?

They want me to do a benefit

in Anchora this Sunday.

And I thought if you happened to be

flying that way, I could hitchhike.

Oh gee, there's nothing

I'd like better, Danny.

But if did that, I'd be missing

my own honeymoon.

- You and Miss Bauer?

- This afternoon.

Well, congratulations, Jim.

Real good luck and everything.

Well, if you have a bride, what

are you standing around here for?

What for?

Give her my best.

Long distance, please.

New York.

I still say there should be a

law...

that once you decide to be

married, you are married.

I should have known that after

filing there's a three weeks delay.

I have a little gift for you.

- Your engagement present.

- There's someone out there.

Look what I found.

Please don't tear my shirt.

The material is irreplaceable.

Oh I beg your pardon.

Your balcony has a

truly amazing view.

Yes. Be sure and drop in anytime.

Now let's talk about you.

You see before you Paul Renkov.

A miserable thief.

Most unskillful.

I'm always caught.

I have nothing to hide.

- Who sent you here?

- Who would send me?

Only a fool would

employ a man like me.

Oh those are lovely cufflinks.

- Hmm. What do you want?

- The diamonds.

Why shouldn't we do business?

You and I?

If you have diamonds, I have

contacts to dispose of them.

Nobody else involved.

So you beat me up, Mr. Brennan.

What do I care?

I'm always beaten up.

- But you won't kill me.

- Don't be so sure.

But just in case something

stuck to your fingers.

Come on. Let's have a look.

Now let me show you something.

You see that door?

If you ever come through it again,

I'll ram it right down your throat.

- Do you believe me?

- Oh yes. Completely. I do.

Why didn't you call the police?

Oh darling, they don't have

time to waste on a petty thief.

Jimmy spoke of diamonds.

Why does he come to you?

Haven't you heard?

Americans are fantastically rich.

And there's proof of it.

Here's your engagement present.

Like it?

More than anything

in my whole life.

Just something I stole

from an old friend.

- Oh we have to invite
