The Man from U.N.C.L.E. Page #6

Jack Deveny.

Yes, please.

Tell me, how does a Russian architect meet

a German car mechanic in East Berlin?

It started when I was brought out...

...to make improvements

on 9 kilometers of the Wall.

And one morning, I was coming home...

He rear-ended a tank.

That is when I met the most expensive

mechanic in East Germany.

And did they make you build the Wall

as well as design it?

You're shaped like a powerlifter,

not an architect.

I like to jog.

How did you get the invitation to my party?

Before we get there...

...allow me.

Contessa's a little heavy

with the lipstick.

And you're a little light

with your fingers.

Well, I doubt she'll miss it.

Etruscan, isn't it?

May I?

If you don't, there could be trouble.

What about my watch?

Are we in a rush?

No, I don't suppose we are.

Now, tell me,

when did this happy accident occur?

Two years ago.

- Two years ago?

- Yes.

You never wrote

your Uncle Rudi a word about it.

- I wanted to make sure it was serious.

- Or were you, perhaps, ashamed?

Why would she be ashamed?

I know that the equity of aristocratic blood

is not appreciated by most communists.

But a good German girl knows...

...never to mix the blood of a racehorse

with that of a carthorse.

Uncle Rudi? That's not

a very nice thing to say.

Don't be so protective.

I'm sure our weightlifter

can defend himself.

Excuse me.

So you're a thief.

I like to call myself a specialist

in complicated acquisitions.

- I hope you wear a mask.

- Sometimes.

Just never when I'm stealing things.

What is it exactly that you think

you can do for me, Mr. Jack?

Let's just say I fill gaps...

...in important collections.

Those one or two special pieces

that are impossible to acquire...

...without the requisite skill set.

Victoria, this is my Gaby.

- The famous niece.

- Hello.

I need to use the sink.

So use the ladies'.

Go ahead.

- What brings you to Rome, Mr. Deveny?

- Just here to see the sights.

- Rudi. Nice to see you.

- Waverly.

Waverly runs the shipping department

at British Oil.

Excuse me, I said I need to use the sink.

- What?

- I am sorry I'm so late, Rudi.

I stupidly seem to have lost my invitation.

Jack Deveny.

Yes. Yes, I think we bumped

into each other outside.

Beg your pardon.

- I do apologize.

- No, not at all.

I noticed you're very good

with your hands.

- Excuse me?

- He said, "Use the ladies'."

I witnessed your trick

with the tablecloth.

That's brilliant.

Were you once a waiter or...?

Have the jets been cleansed

and totally rechecked for size and flow?

Really? You want to fix it?

I'd be delighted.

So I just need the wrench.

I'd better give the Contessa

back her bracelet.
