The Listening Dead Page #2

Synopsis: Up on a bare moonlit hilltop, Nigel, a fiery yet elegant composer seeks redemption in the intangible notes, immersed in his music. Inevitably, before such an enchanting mistress, his loving seamstress wife Karen is nothing but a distraction, and after one rejection too many, Karen hurt and blinded with jealousy, will inadvertently tie her husband with a fiendish black spell. Now, if she can't have him, no one will. But the restless and everlasting spectres of the departed are always close, listening.

the flight was, for some reason.

Where are you going?

I'm...

Nothing. I'm just

running a little late.

No, you're not.

You're staying right here...

Until you find that briefcase

And Disable those sabotouers.

This thing in Rome...

See you, Anthony!

It's all about technical things,disks...

A big book...

Top Secret, Comint,

Gamma Plus...

Capricorn, Noforn, Orcon,

Substation Operations Manual..

..."TUMBLEWEED".

For sure they

are technical things.

- Come on, I won't throw it away.

- Tomorrow I'll return it to them.

Come on! Do you care about it?

- Why don't you look inside?

- I don't want to.

Listen, tomorrow I will take it

To the Carabinieri at 6:00 pm.

And even if it takes me 2 hours, I'll

come and visit you before you leave.

- See you tomorrow then?

- Yeah.

All right. Bye. - Bye bye.

Ashe...

- What?

- Such a flake!

So laid back he can barely see

Over his pelvis. - Yeah.

Everybody out.

You heard.

Echelon got a hit on the word

"Tumbleweed" 95 minutes ago.

Woman named Francesca Savelli

mentioned the manuals on the phone...

The entire cover of one of them.

I guess Ashe got lucky.

Said she plans to return them

at 18:
00 tomorrow to the Carabinieri.

What's the problem?

- Until she does, you listen.

- Why should I listen?

Tumbleweed's got bumped

up to Gamma Glide plus.

You and I are the only

ones cleared and I'm busy.

Well, get busy.

Yes, it's lovely.

I know, I really didn't think

they were going to buy it.

Oh, God.

The copies are f***ing horrible.

No, it's the doodle.

Looks like pee on snow.

I can't send this

to the French Embassy.

Samir is going to flip.

- Sure is! What can you do?

- I'll have to find a way.

It's only 10:
15.

These gentlemen are very worried,Jim.

- There's nothing to worry about.

- Good.

No,No, I won't go into details!

All right, I came 4 times.

The great total amount of this year.

- What do you mean by this year?

- I mean this year.

Tune in to Canale 5.

Luisa is on TV.

- Why isn't the bag back?

- What was that?

WCT wanted the head of Rome office to send

Marines in to retrieve it,Embassy Marines!

Oh, for crying out loud.

This girl is not an industrial spy,

She's not a blackmailer...

And she's certainly not a terrorist.

She's just doing

these jerks a favour.

- How long?

- I don't know.

It'd probably be a good idea if the

Italian police didn't see the manuals.

Phil,we're not corporate security.

Just do me a favour and cross-Feed

her coordinates to John real time.

Sure.

- Miss Savelli?

- Si.

- Speak English?

- Yes, I do.

No news.

Come say goodbye

before you leave, Jim.

I'll be sleeping here again tonight.

That's not healthy.

Well, apparently I have a lot of work
