A View to a Kill Page #4

Looks as though you'll have

a good turnout for the sale tomorrow.

May I introduce Miss Sutton?

Sheikh Farouk.

- Welcome.

- Mr Zorin. Main Strike all set?

We'll know after the 22nd.

- Thank you.

- Enjoy yourself.

You were looking for something?

Yes, I... I was looking for the bar.

Come. I will show you.

Oh, by the way, the name is

St John Smythe. James St John Smythe.

Dr Carl Mortner. At your service.

- Hiya, doc!

- Good afternoon, Mr Conley.

Mr Conley, Mr Smythe.

Bob Conley.

- Are you a trainer?

- Horses? Hell, I can't even ride.

- I'm in the oil business.

- Oh. Texas? (shutter clicks)

Frisco. I handle Mr Zorin's

oil interests there.

Would you excuse us? Come on, honey.

Are you a doctor of medicine?

Oh, no, no.

I am Mr Zorin's breeding consultant.

Oh, really?

Then you can let me into a little secret.

How is it you succeed with breeding

bloodlines other experts think inferior?

Selective breeding is important.

But more important

is conditioning and a desire, ja?

Are you talking about

people or horses? (shutter clicks)

My principles apply equally

to human beings.

Mr St John Smythe.

Allow me to introduce myself.

Mr Zorin, it's a great pleasure.

- A groom asked if you'd go to the stables.

- Of course.

You will excuse me?

I must congratulate you, Mr Zorin.

Your stables are magnificent.

Built in the 16th century by a duke who

believed he'd be reincarnated as a horse.

Have thoroughbreds interested you long?

Oh, no. As a matter of fact I had a dotty

old aunt die and leave me some stables.

So I thought it might be rather fun

to breed and raise horses.

- I take it you ride?

- I'm happiest in the saddle.

A fellow-sportsman.

What about fishing?

Fly casting?

I'm neglecting my other guests. You'll find

the young ladies stimulating company.

I'm sure they are.

Hello. I thought you might

like to join the party.

By the way, the name is

James St John Smythe. I'm English.

Hmm. I never would have guessed.

Really?

Monsieur.

Well, are you buying or selling?

- Selling?

- Horses.

Oh.

No, I'm not interested in horses.

Well, you came to the wrong place,

didn't you?

May Day.

Get her away from him.

I'm sure I've seen him somewhere before.

Have Security keep a good eye on him.

You didn't say what part

of the States you come from, Miss...

No. I didn't.

I suppose you... travel a lot?

Your helicopter leaves in 20 minutes.

You're not staying the night? I was hoping

we'd spend the evening together.

Now I shall be all alone.

I doubt that.

- Well, let me walk you to the chopper.

- That won't be necessary.

- Someone will take care of you.

- You'll see to that personally, will you?

- (muffled cry)
