The Avengers: The Journey Back Page #4

---

For a large brandy?

I was driving along,

minding my own business.

Enjoying and breathing

the good country air.

Contemplating the glories

of England in summertime.

-You were driving along.

-When I noticed a van following me.

One with handles that fiight back?

Right,

and as soon as I recognised the fact...

all my car's wiring burnt out.

The car was full of smoke, I was blinded.

There was a gatepost rushing toward me.

With tremendous verve and lan...

-I may say, great driving skills...

-and a good deal of luck.

It was a very near thing.

The car is still working.

But all my little dials are kaput.

Even the altimeter.

If one day you happen to be driving

at 10,000 feet, I'm sure you'll notice.

What do you think did it?

Broadcast power.

Sending electricity

just as you would a radio message.

Mankin was working on that.

-You saw him?

-I saw Mankin.

I gave him something to think about.

He's here.

It's for you.

What you were saying started me thinking.

I decided to go to Risely Dale.

You've been there?

I'm there now.

I think you're right.

Something is going on.

Hold on.

Mankin's at Risely Dale.

-He's onto something.

-Or up to something.

-Do you want to meet him?

-I'll see you at Creswell's.

Mrs. Peel is on her way now.

Right. I'll be waiting.

.

Not disturbing you, I hope.

Thought you'd be free at this time.

-I'm very busy.

-Forgive the unconventional entrance.

Basic training. Old habits die hard.

You mind?

I don't wish to be rude.

But I was studying this circuit diagram

and I wish to get on with it.

I thought you were pacing before I came in.

Looked like you were waiting for someone,

not possible...

...if you were engrossed in the diagram.

-I was thinking.

-Go ahead. I'll be quiet as a mouse.

You're extremely edgy.

You've been working too hard.

Why not some of this excellent sherry?

It is excellent.

What do you want?

Information.

Mankin seems to feel

that you are sabotaging Project 90.

Sure you're not waiting for someone?

It's ridiculous.

-What is?

-Mankin's suggestion.

Why should l, or anybody,

wish to sabotage Project 90?

Broadcast electricity.

I thought the Ministry

abandoned that little pipe...

Perhaps, the Ministry have

but someone else is pursuing it.

It would make a neat secret weapon,

if it were possible.

-lf.

-That's what I said, if.

Hayworth.

This is an unexpected pleasure.

I didn't expect to see you.

This is Mr. Steed from the Ministry.

-This is Peter Hayworth.

-Delighted.

Forgive me.

Sprained a tendon playing bridge.

You play a rough game.

I expect you called for those papers.

Here we are.

We won't keep you then.

Don't go now. You just arrived.
