of ambivalence I ever saw.

Case of what?

Ambivalence?

Double values.

They both like and hate each other.

They don't know which feeling to follow.

Wonderful confusion.

Perfect sex antagonism.

This proves it.

Proves what?

Yeah, proves what?

Look at the doodle she made.

Did you make a pass at her

when you brought her down in the C-47?

I did not!

Let me look at that.

You mean these doodles would show it?

I don't know.

You'd get practically

the same effect if he didn't.

That's just the way it was!

I didn't!

Now, Jim

And speaking of passes, sir,

she threw one at me...

right in my office

almost before her hands got warm.

What?

Then she tried it again

in the shower.

Shower?

What shower?

I got one in the office.

Oh, well.

What is she doing in a shower?

Well, after she undressed

in the bathroom, gentlemen.

It's all in my notes, General.

I had to search her, didn't I?

Yes, but you didn't say

anything about this shower business.

She asked me if she could take one.

What else could I do?

General, I think we can spare

Colonel Shannon any further details.

The overall picture seems

to be sufficiently corroborated.

I think we'd be fully justified

in exploiting it.

Listen, General

Don't look at me.

They're absolutely right.

- You were made for this job.

- General Black, I'm a jet man, not a gigolo.

How about that job you did for us

with that German Frau?

That was an accident,

not in the line of duty.

Well, this is.

I'm putting you in full charge

and holding you completely responsible.

But

I don't want this angle

to get into the records.

So I'll leave it to you to inform

your people and the F.B.I.

You do the same with the C.I.A.

Yes, sir.

But, General

The newspapers don't know

a thing about this girl, so watch yourself.

Washington wants to keep it this way.

Savvy?

- General, let's don't change the subject.

- Colonel Shannon?

I can take a hint.

About face! Forward march.

Where ya been?

You're a day late.

Ran into some bad weather

in Edmonton, but we're all

present and accounted for.

You're still in charge.

What's the matter?

Well, they couldn't get any more

out of her nibs than we did,

so they tossed her back in my lap.

You better give the group

a couple of days rest.

Serves you right for not

letting me bring her down.

I wish I had.

Look, I'm gonna have to

put on an act for her,

so after we pull out,

you tell that Waf captain

not to take it too seriously.

Never mind.

I'll tell her myself.

You remember Major Rexford.

Oh, yes. How do you do?

Colonel Shannon tells me

you two are going up for a flight.

I still can't believe it.

You're not serious?

Why not?

You mean I'm not going
