Would you destroy a company that's

been in our family for over 100 years?

If I had to.

- You're holding a gun to my head.

- I'm sorry, Franois.

But if you won't help me,

I'll raise the money any way I can.

Yes, I think you would.

I think you would.

Very well.

Because I have a sense of responsibility

to Delambre Frres, even if you do not...

...l'll supply you with whatever you need.

Thanks, Franois.

It's going to work.

Believe me, I don't wantjust your money.

- I want you to work with us.

- I'll work with you.

Not because I'm won over, or have any hope

that you will succeed where Andr failed...

...but to protect you, if I can, from the

deadly consequences of building this device.

And I'll keep on trying to dissuade you

every step of the way...

...from continuing with this project.

That's fine. You're welcome to try.

But just work with me.

I promise you'll come to believe

in this thing as firmly as I do.

- We'll see.

- We will see.

- When can I order new equipment?

- Whenever you like.

- Today?

- If you like.

I'll meet you at the plant.

Very well.

Phil, you were wonderful.

Now we can really get started.

- I'm sorry I had to do it that way.

- I'll tag along if you don't mind.

- I've got some errands in town.

- All right.

- I'll pick you up here about three.

- Three it is.

Taxi!

- Oh, hello, Ronnie.

- Not Ronnie. Alan Hinds, if you please.

Well, Mr Hinds, what brings you here?

- Money.

- Did you say money?

- You'll get none from me, my boy.

- Just a moment, my fine fat friend.

What would you say if I told you

I'm onto something worth millions?

- I'd say you were lying.

- (chuckles) Not this time, Max.

Look, one thing you'll admit:

I know about electronics.

I've been working for Delambre Frres.

Oh, the, uh, new radar for

the Canadian Air Force. Might be valuable.

Max, this is no radar.

It's something really fantastic...

...and I'm in a great spot to steal it.

Go ahead and steal it. Why come to me?

I need someone to sell it for me.

I'll nab the drawings and specifications.

You sell them.

Ronnie...

you'd double-cross your own mother.

So would you.

But there's plenty for both of us.

- I tell you, it's tremendous.

- Very well, it's tremendous.

What is it?

Were you here in Montreal

when Andr Delambre was killed?

- I was.

- Do you recall some strange rumours...

...about the project he was working on

at the time of his death?

Yes, I do.

You get in touch with the leading

electronics outfits, the big cartels.

Ask them just one thing: if they're

interested in a disintegrator-integrator.

Then sit back

and wait for the offers to come in.

They'll want something to go on,
