Speaker 4 (03:36):
My brother's name is William, William B.
Speaker 5 (03:38):
Holland.
Speaker 7 (03:40):
A long time ago he left the family and started
out to see the world, started working his way from
place to place. Although William has been gone for nearly
ten years, not once in those ten.
Speaker 4 (03:51):
Years have I failed to receive a weekly letter.
Speaker 5 (03:53):
But he hasn't written lately, not for a month. Where
was the last place he wrote you? From?
Speaker 7 (03:58):
San Bortia, Bolivia. Never heard of it, the small city
in the interior. While in La Paz he wrote me
that he'd met a man named Louis Frober. Miss Frober
was from San Borgia and according to Will, practically ran
the place. Will said he was going to visit him,
and in his last two letters he talked much of
Frober in his hospitality, but said that something was wrong
(04:21):
in this town of San Borgia.
Speaker 5 (04:23):
Didn't say what it was, didn't know.
Speaker 3 (04:26):
Then his letters stopped, yes, mm hmm, and you wanted
me to find out why they stopped, if anything's happened
to your brother, mister Diamond, I'm quite wealthy and I
will pay you handsomely to take the job.

Speaker 3 (05:02):
Two tickets. Well, I'd like to take my assistant along.
Bolivia is new territory for me, and it might be dangerous.
Speaker 7 (05:08):
I checked on you quite thoroughly, and I didn't find that.
Speaker 3 (05:11):
You worked for an assistant well, only on the cases
that take me out of town. He's a worldly man.
He could find a Trout and Sahara. Lots of experience,
fifteen years with the police department. All right, what's his name,
Walter Q. Levinson? The Q is frequency, but don't tell
him I mentioned it.
Speaker 5 (05:34):
Well, that's hard works.
Speaker 3 (05:36):
Man comes in and wants me to find his brother.
Last seen in South America, Walt Levinson was looking for
a vacation spot and I was looking for someone to
talk to on my way to send Borfa.

you love it?
Speaker 4 (05:51):

Speaker 5 (06:01):
Wait a minute, wait a minute.
Speaker 4 (06:02):

Speaker 3 (06:03):

of Manhattan dropping away as we turn on the first
of our pattern, heading up for sixteen thousand, looking down
and wondering about a man and a leather jacket and
the crew cut looking down as the lights begin to
(07:09):
melt into a heavy cold front sixteen thousand, Flying south,
the pit's changing the propellers into a mellow hum.
Speaker 4 (07:19):
Why don't you relax?
Speaker 5 (07:21):

hundred kilometers into the interior, ten thousand feet above sea level,
high on a plateau, and the only way there.
Speaker 4 (09:02):
Oh this is swell sandy vacation. But what happens when
my liver comes flo will relaxed?
Speaker 3 (09:08):
Well, only one hundred and sixty kilometers to go, considering
where we are, these roads are pretty good.
Speaker 4 (09:14):
Never make it only eight to five. We end up
riding side saddle on a bigeous lama.
Speaker 2 (09:19):
Hey driver, why no air feelings?
Speaker 4 (09:22):
And bora oh there this one there?
Speaker 2 (09:25):
Well, it is what you call the emergencies. It is
hard for a plane to land.
Speaker 4 (09:29):
Something to do with a wind.
Speaker 2 (09:31):
It's a plateau, isn't it? As cis was that to
climb five thousand feet?
Speaker 1 (09:35):
Yet sounds like an ambitious chiropodis.
Speaker 3 (09:40):
Ten o'clock in the morning, sun getting hotter, the old
Ford straining up the grade like an antique teapot.
Speaker 4 (09:47):
Eleven o'clock and the temperature crowding one hundred and twenty.
I want to go home.
Speaker 1 (09:51):

flue ocean and tropical music.
Speaker 4 (09:56):
Ha.
Speaker 5 (09:57):
Oh, how much farther drive?
Speaker 10 (10:00):
For about twenty kilometers sor I'm going to put some
water from the canteen in the radiator.
Speaker 5 (10:06):
Mmm, let's stretch our legs.
Speaker 4 (10:09):
Okay, lousy humidity? Okay, sure, what's empty? He means his head.
Speaker 2 (10:20):
The cop.
Speaker 3 (10:23):
You okay, and there behind that hill, but not decide
and try to circle and keep me covered right, keep
your head down, cha, I'm glad you thought of that.
Walt covered me and I crawled out behind the car
and took off for a bunch of trees.
Speaker 5 (10:40):
It didn't spot me until.
Speaker 2 (10:41):
I had circled them.
Speaker 3 (10:41):
It was almost on top of them. Two men with
the rifles lying behind a small hill.
Speaker 4 (10:46):
One of them turned and spotted me moving in. What Yeah, okay, okay,
you all in one piece?
Speaker 5 (10:58):
Yeah, how about you fine? Two of them? Huh ah, bandits.
I guess you got them both.
Speaker 4 (11:04):
Wonder what they were after.
Speaker 3 (11:06):
Our hides came close to getting them too, the unexpected
two men with rifles.
Speaker 5 (11:14):
Hiding behind a hill. If I hadn't gotten them, that
have gotten us.
Speaker 3 (11:18):
He picked them up, dragged them over to the car,
and I kept asking myself, why why two men behind
a hill with the rifles bandits? Maybe assassin's paid to
wait there and kill us. If that was the answer,
who told them we were coming? The man in the
leather jacket back in New York maybe.
Speaker 4 (11:37):
Dumped them in the car. Yeah, the drivers had it
slug got him in the chest.
Speaker 3 (11:42):
I'll dump him into Let's get to send both and
get some answers. And if you say anything about a vacation,
I'll sing all the way up the hill.

Speaker 5 (17:04):
Dinner, the long paneled dining room, illuminated by a.
Speaker 3 (17:08):
Dozen candles, music floating in from a hidden speaker, The
food something to make the Waldorf chef quietly fold his tent,
and the conversation do.
Speaker 8 (17:16):
You plan to stay in Sanborn? Hang?
Speaker 4 (17:18):
Mister Darmond it was hard to say, missus rober It's
a wonderful soup.
Speaker 11 (17:22):
And mister Diamond and mister Levinson have been sent here

Speaker 8 (17:27):
This soup is my own recipe, mister Diamond, made from
barley grown rifle on Sandora.
Speaker 3 (17:38):
Just a casual dinner conversation unless you're conditioned aware of
the subtle interrogation.
Speaker 5 (17:44):
The end of a pleasant and filling.
Speaker 3 (17:45):
Meal, I'm a jack in the den, and more talk
about health, wealth and the weather, and more interrogation.
Speaker 5 (17:55):
Ten o'clock.
Speaker 11 (17:56):
Well, I am afraid you'll have to excuse me now, gentlemen,
I have to be up at six o'clock, and every
half day ahead of me.
Speaker 3 (18:06):
The conventional goodbyes and exaggerated compliments on a wonderful evening.
Then back to the hotel. All in all, a very
interesting evening. According to Faddy Levinson.
Speaker 4 (18:15):
Our charming hostess slipped me a note as we left,
Why Wald, I must talk with you. My husband will
be leaving now shortly before midnight. Meet me in the
garden at twelve, Why Walt, it's addressed to you, Why Rickie.
A quarter to.
Speaker 3 (18:34):
Twelve, Then out the back of the hotel, because in
San Borja everyone works for Louis Strawbery. Heading for Frober's house,
walt fifty yards behind, because in San Borja, a note
asking you to meet the wife of Louis Stroeber might
easily be a trap. Maybe William Holland had received just
such a note. Twelve o'clock and Missus s. Frober, moving
(18:54):
through the moonlight in the gardens south of the house,
waltz behind a tree, ready for anything.
Speaker 8 (19:00):
I'm so glad you came, mister Diamond. Where is mister Levinson?
Speaker 5 (19:03):
Well here he stayed behind. Why did you want to
see me, Missus Robert?
Speaker 8 (19:07):
It is about William Holland and my husband.
Speaker 5 (19:10):
Where is your husband, Miss Robert?
Speaker 8 (19:11):
He left with Paul for the mines. From what I
could find out, he is going to meet some one,
some one of great importance.
Speaker 5 (19:18):
Oh what about William Holland.
Speaker 8 (19:21):
I am sure he has been killed, and I am
sure my husband had him killed.
Speaker 3 (19:28):
Go on.
Speaker 8 (19:28):
We first met William.
Speaker 5 (19:30):
In that pass.
Speaker 8 (19:31):
He was likable, easy to talk to. I had been
married for two years and it was my first trip
away from Saint Borga. I liked William.
Speaker 3 (19:38):
You uh know, any one in New York, blond, short
cut hair, plump face. I'd like to wear leather jackets. No,
I'll go on with your story.
Speaker 8 (19:47):
A year after I married Louis Schrobeur, I began to
suspect something wrong with his activities here in Saint Borgia.
The men who came to see him on business strange men,
founness to South America, long nights of business meeting, some
trips to the mines. When William finally came here, I
told him of my suspicions, and one night he informed
(20:09):
me he was going to the mines to investigate. I
never heard from him again.
Speaker 5 (20:14):
You think it had something to do with your husband.
Speaker 8 (20:16):
Right after that, I overheard of phone conversation by my husband.
He was talking to some one he called the director.
Speaker 5 (20:23):
The director.
Speaker 8 (20:24):
Yes, my husband said that William had found his way
into the mines and had been eliminated.
Speaker 5 (20:31):
Say, you've only known your husband for two years.
Speaker 8 (20:34):
Two years and a half. I met him in real
while he was down on one of his business trips.
I married him six months later and came to Sambo
how to live? Would you like to know where I
met my husband.
Speaker 4 (20:47):
Mister diamond, If you think it's necessary.
Speaker 8 (20:50):
With what I've come to believe, I feel that it
is most necessary. I met him at the party given
by the Russian embassy, Mister Diamond, I am sure it's
my husband is an important official for the communists.
Speaker 3 (21:09):
Along the road east to the Frober mines, no lights,
just the moon, the sounds of the jungle, raising your
hair on the back of my neck, A kilometer from
the mines, from the dull glow in the sky, pointing
the wave Robert's generator as a manbar working late, the
kilometer passed from the tenseness in the middle of my stomach,
(21:31):
took on cramp like proportions. They climbed a hill for
a better look.
Speaker 4 (21:37):
Pretty busy. Must be thirty trucks down there.
Speaker 5 (21:40):
And getting them loaded for the trip down the hill.
Speaker 4 (21:44):
Hey, listen to that, well, I'll big din. Is that
what I think it is?
Speaker 3 (21:50):
The fields and zen Borha make it tough for a plane,
But for a helicopter, that's another thing.
Speaker 4 (21:54):
Robert left the house to meet somebody important.
Speaker 3 (22:04):
Anybody who comes into sand Borja and a helicopter at
night is a pretty good bet to be important.
Speaker 4 (22:09):
Our dead driver said there was an emergency field.
Speaker 5 (22:12):
Well, it's landing on the other side of the mines.
Must be close.
Speaker 3 (22:14):
You want to take a look and luh, not too
many men around those trucks before we go looking for
that copter.
Speaker 5 (22:21):
I want to see if it's really ten. Mister Frober
is taking out of that mine. Down the hill.
Speaker 3 (22:28):
Walk twenty yards behind in case of trouble, taking our
way through the brush, trying not to sound like a landslide.
A long road running away from the mines towards San Borja.
The lineup truck, the first.
Speaker 4 (22:40):
Dozen is so loaded and ready, their backs piled high
with sacks.
Speaker 3 (22:45):
A short sprint and I was boosting myself up on
the back of the first truck, digging into one of
the sacks, feeling the heavy chunks of.
Speaker 4 (22:51):
Ore, then down off the truck with the oar in
my hand. You're up late to sit Diamond.
Speaker 3 (22:58):
Paul Yavachek for his right hand boy standing in the darkness,
his gun pointed right in my stomachs, will be happy
to know.
Speaker 10 (23:05):
Of your interest in his minds. Start walking up the
road toward the main gate. Stay ahead of me, keep
your hands in sight.
Speaker 4 (23:14):
Tell me something you have a check. How do you
get ten out? Of pitch Blend. I suggest you ask
Risterph Frober.
Speaker 5 (23:21):
He's at the mines.
Speaker 4 (23:22):
He will be Robert. You have a check?
Speaker 5 (23:28):
Thanks?
Speaker 4 (23:29):
All thanks?
Speaker 5 (23:29):
You all right?
Speaker 4 (23:30):
Yeah, it's close. You have a check dead. Come on,
let's get out of here.
Speaker 3 (23:37):
Were two well, Miss Robert said her husband had a
phone conversation. I'm gonna use that phone and Warren La
Paz about Frober.
Speaker 4 (23:44):
Hold it?
Speaker 5 (23:45):
What is it?
Speaker 4 (23:46):
Car coming down the road? Robert?
Speaker 3 (23:50):
Yeah, yeah, and he's got company, probably his important visitor.
When he finds out what's happening, you'll guess it's us.
We'll never get back to town before he does.
Speaker 4 (23:57):
Unless we drive.
Speaker 5 (23:59):
I will take a chair and on the confused and
grab that first truck.
Speaker 4 (24:05):
Clear, he's her in the truck. We must live, right, Yeah,
but for how long?
Speaker 8 (24:26):
There's a direct phone line all the way to Cavendo.
The operator Cavendo can put you through to La Passe bueno.
Speaker 5 (24:35):

Speaker 4 (03:36):
My brother's name is William, William B.
Speaker 5 (03:38):
Holland.
Speaker 7 (03:40):
A long time ago he left the family and started
out to see the world, started working his way from
place to place. Although William has been gone for nearly
ten years, not once in those ten.
Speaker 4 (03:51):
Years have I failed to receive a weekly letter.
Speaker 5 (03:53):
But he hasn't written lately, not for a month. Where
was the last place he wrote you? From?
Speaker 7 (03:58):
San Bortia, Bolivia. Never heard of it, the small city
in the interior. While in La Paz he wrote me
that he'd met a man named Louis Frober. Miss Frober
was from San Borgia and according to Will, practically ran
the place. Will said he was going to visit him,
and in his last two letters he talked much of
Frober in his hospitality, but said that something was wrong
(04:21):
in this town of San Borgia.
Speaker 5 (04:23):
Didn't say what it was, didn't know.
Speaker 3 (04:26):
Then his letters stopped, yes, mm hmm, and you wanted
me to find out why they stopped, if anything's happened
to your brother, mister Diamond, I'm quite wealthy and I
will pay you handsomely to take the job.
Speaker 7 (04:38):
Besides, it might turn into a nice vacation. South America
is supposed to be wonderful this time of year, vacation
possibly hmm.
Speaker 3 (04:48):
Well, uh uh, mister Holland, I'll er I'll take the
job on two conditions, Moradi. Well, first, my fee one
hundred a day in expenses accepted, thank you. Second that
you purchased two tickets for San.
Speaker 5 (05:01):
Borja, Bolivia.
Speaker 3 (05:02):
Two tickets. Well, I'd like to take my assistant along.
Bolivia is new territory for me, and it might be dangerous.
Speaker 7 (05:08):
I checked on you quite thoroughly, and I didn't find that.
Speaker 3 (05:11):
You worked for an assistant well, only on the cases
that take me out of town. He's a worldly man.
He could find a Trout and Sahara. Lots of experience,
fifteen years with the police department. All right, what's his name,
Walter Q. Levinson? The Q is frequency, but don't tell
him I mentioned it.
Speaker 5 (05:34):
Well, that's hard works.
Speaker 3 (05:36):
Man comes in and wants me to find his brother.
Last seen in South America, Walt Levinson was looking for
a vacation spot and I was looking for someone to
talk to on my way to send Borfa.
Speaker 5 (05:46):
Result one phone called a Fatty Levinson Olivia. How but
you love it?
Speaker 4 (05:51):
Walt Trout as big as sharks? Where did you get
two tickets to Bolivia?

Well, to tell you the truth, Fatty, I'm going down
on a little job when you get back by now.
Speaker 5 (06:01):
Wait a minute, wait a minute.
Speaker 4 (06:02):
You win. Great.
Speaker 3 (06:03):
I've just got to find a missing brother. After that
we can relax and have ourselves at time. Oh, think

native music under the golden moon, and quaint little la.
Speaker 5 (06:18):

and wondering about a man and a leather jacket and
the crew cut looking down as the lights begin to
(07:09):
melt into a heavy cold front sixteen thousand, Flying south,
the pit's changing the propellers into a mellow hum.
Speaker 4 (07:19):
Why don't you relax?
Speaker 5 (07:21):
Well?
Speaker 3 (07:21):

altitude features.

hundred kilometers into the interior, ten thousand feet above sea level,
high on a plateau, and the only way there.
Speaker 4 (09:02):
Oh this is swell sandy vacation. But what happens when
my liver comes flo will relaxed?
Speaker 3 (09:08):
Well, only one hundred and sixty kilometers to go, considering
where we are, these roads are pretty good.
Speaker 4 (09:14):
Never make it only eight to five. We end up
riding side saddle on a bigeous lama.
Speaker 2 (09:19):
Hey driver, why no air feelings?
Speaker 4 (09:22):
And bora oh there this one there?
Speaker 2 (09:25):
Well, it is what you call the emergencies. It is
hard for a plane to land.
Speaker 4 (09:29):
Something to do with a wind.
Speaker 2 (09:31):
It's a plateau, isn't it? As cis was that to
climb five thousand feet?
Speaker 1 (09:35):
Yet sounds like an ambitious chiropodis.
Speaker 3 (09:40):
Ten o'clock in the morning, sun getting hotter, the old
Ford straining up the grade like an antique teapot.
Speaker 4 (09:47):
Eleven o'clock and the temperature crowding one hundred and twenty.
I want to go home.
Speaker 1 (09:51):

water from the canteen in the radiator.
Speaker 5 (10:06):
Mmm, let's stretch our legs.
Speaker 4 (10:09):
Okay, lousy humidity? Okay, sure, what's empty? He means his head.

Speaker 3 (10:23):
You okay, and there behind that hill, but not decide
and try to circle and keep me covered right, keep
your head down, cha, I'm glad you thought of that.
Walt covered me and I crawled out behind the car
and took off for a bunch of trees.
Speaker 5 (10:40):
It didn't spot me until.
Speaker 2 (10:41):
I had circled them.
Speaker 3 (10:41):
It was almost on top of them. Two men with
the rifles lying behind a small hill.
Speaker 4 (10:46):
One of them turned and spotted me moving in. What Yeah, okay, okay,
you all in one piece?
Speaker 5 (10:58):
Yeah, how about you fine? Two of them? Huh ah, bandits.
I guess you got them both.
Speaker 4 (11:04):
Wonder what they were after.
Speaker 3 (11:06):
Our hides came close to getting them too, the unexpected
two men with rifles.
Speaker 5 (11:14):
Hiding behind a hill. If I hadn't gotten them, that
have gotten us.
Speaker 3 (11:18):
He picked them up, dragged them over to the car,
and I kept asking myself, why why two men behind
a hill with the rifles bandits? Maybe assassin's paid to
wait there and kill us. If that was the answer,
who told them we were coming? The man in the
leather jacket back in New York maybe.
Speaker 4 (11:37):
Dumped them in the car. Yeah, the drivers had it
slug got him in the chest.
Speaker 3 (11:42):
I'll dump him into Let's get to send both and

Speaker 3 (17:08):
Dozen candles, music floating in from a hidden speaker, The

Mister Darmond it was hard to say, missus rober It's
a wonderful soup.
Speaker 11 (17:22):

Speaker 8 (17:27):
This soup is my own recipe, mister Diamond, made from
barley grown rifle on Sandora.
Speaker 3 (17:38):
Just a casual dinner conversation unless you're conditioned aware of
the subtle interrogation.
Speaker 5 (17:44):
The end of a pleasant and filling.
Speaker 3 (17:45):
Meal, I'm a jack in the den, and more talk
about health, wealth and the weather, and more interrogation.
Speaker 5 (17:55):
Ten o'clock.
Speaker 11 (17:56):
Well, I am afraid you'll have to excuse me now, gentlemen,
I have to be up at six o'clock, and every
half day ahead of me.
Speaker 3 (18:06):
The conventional goodbyes and exaggerated compliments on a wonderful evening.
Then back to the hotel. All in all, a very
interesting evening. According to Faddy Levinson.
Speaker 4 (18:15):
Our charming hostess slipped me a note as we left,
Why Wald, I must talk with you. My husband will
be leaving now shortly before midnight. Meet me in the
garden at twelve, Why Walt, it's addressed to you, Why Rickie.
A quarter to.
Speaker 3 (18:34):
Twelve, Then out the back of the hotel, because in
San Borja everyone works for Louis Strawbery. Heading for Frober's house,
walt fifty yards behind, because in San Borja, a note
asking you to meet the wife of Louis Stroeber might
easily be a trap. Maybe William Holland had received just
such a note. Twelve o'clock and Missus s. Frober, moving
(18:54):
through the moonlight in the gardens south of the house,
waltz behind a tree, ready for anything.
Speaker 8 (19:00):
I'm so glad you came, mister Diamond. Where is mister Levinson?
Speaker 5 (19:03):
Well here he stayed behind. Why did you want to
see me, Missus Robert?
Speaker 8 (19:07):
It is about William Holland and my husband.
Speaker 5 (19:10):
Where is your husband, Miss Robert?
Speaker 8 (19:11):
He left with Paul for the mines. From what I
could find out, he is going to meet some one,
some one of great importance.
Speaker 5 (19:18):
Oh what about William Holland.
Speaker 8 (19:21):
I am sure he has been killed, and I am
sure my husband had him killed.
Speaker 3 (19:28):
Go on.
Speaker 8 (19:28):
We first met William.
Speaker 5 (19:30):
In that pass.
Speaker 8 (19:31):
He was likable, easy to talk to. I had been
married for two years and it was my first trip
away from Saint Borga. I liked William.
Speaker 3 (19:38):
You uh know, any one in New York, blond, short
cut hair, plump face. I'd like to wear leather jackets. No,
I'll go on with your story.
Speaker 8 (19:47):
A year after I married Louis Schrobeur, I began to
suspect something wrong with his activities here in Saint Borgia.
The men who came to see him on business strange men,
founness to South America, long nights of business meeting, some
trips to the mines. When William finally came here, I
told him of my suspicions, and one night he informed
(20:09):
me he was going to the mines to investigate. I
never heard from him again.
Speaker 5 (20:14):
You think it had something to do with your husband.
Speaker 8 (20:16):
Right after that, I overheard of phone conversation by my husband.
He was talking to some one he called the director.
Speaker 5 (20:23):
The director.
Speaker 8 (20:24):
Yes, my husband said that William had found his way
into the mines and had been eliminated.
Speaker 5 (20:31):
Say, you've only known your husband for two years.
Speaker 8 (20:34):
Two years and a half. I met him in real
while he was down on one of his business trips.
I married him six months later and came to Sambo
how to live? Would you like to know where I
met my husband.
Speaker 4 (20:47):
Mister diamond, If you think it's necessary.
Speaker 8 (20:50):
With what I've come to believe, I feel that it
is most necessary. I met him at the party given
by the Russian embassy, Mister Diamond, I am sure it's
my husband is an important official for the communists.
Speaker 3 (21:09):
Along the road east to the Frober mines, no lights,
just the moon, the sounds of the jungle, raising your
hair on the back of my neck, A kilometer from
the mines, from the dull glow in the sky, pointing
the wave Robert's generator as a manbar working late, the
kilometer passed from the tenseness in the middle of my stomach,
(21:31):
took on cramp like proportions. They climbed a hill for
a better look.
Speaker 4 (21:37):
Pretty busy. Must be thirty trucks down there.
Speaker 5 (21:40):
And getting them loaded for the trip down the hill.
Speaker 4 (21:44):
Hey, listen to that, well, I'll big din. Is that
what I think it is?
Speaker 3 (21:50):
The fields and zen Borha make it tough for a plane,
But for a helicopter, that's another thing.
Speaker 4 (21:54):
Robert left the house to meet somebody important.
Speaker 3 (22:04):
Anybody who comes into sand Borja and a helicopter at
night is a pretty good bet to be important.
Speaker 4 (22:09):
Our dead driver said there was an emergency field.
Speaker 5 (22:12):
Well, it's landing on the other side of the mines.
Must be close.
Speaker 3 (22:14):
You want to take a look and luh, not too
many men around those trucks before we go looking for
that copter.
Speaker 5 (22:21):
I want to see if it's really ten. Mister Frober
is taking out of that mine. Down the hill.
Speaker 3 (22:28):
Walk twenty yards behind in case of trouble, taking our
way through the brush, trying not to sound like a landslide.
A long road running away from the mines towards San Borja.
The lineup truck, the first.
Speaker 4 (22:40):
Dozen is so loaded and ready, their backs piled high
with sacks.
Speaker 3 (22:45):
A short sprint and I was boosting myself up on
the back of the first truck, digging into one of
the sacks, feeling the heavy chunks of.
Speaker 4 (22:51):
Ore, then down off the truck with the oar in
my hand. You're up late to sit Diamond.
Speaker 3 (22:58):
Paul Yavachek for his right hand boy standing in the darkness,
his gun pointed right in my stomachs, will be happy
to know.
Speaker 10 (23:05):
Of your interest in his minds. Start walking up the
road toward the main gate. Stay ahead of me, keep
your hands in sight.
Speaker 4 (23:14):
Tell me something you have a check. How do you
get ten out? Of pitch Blend. I suggest you ask
Risterph Frober.
Speaker 5 (23:21):
He's at the mines.
Speaker 4 (23:22):
He will be Robert. You have a check?
Speaker 5 (23:28):
Thanks?
Speaker 4 (23:29):
All thanks?
Speaker 5 (23:29):
You all right?
Speaker 4 (23:30):
Yeah, it's close. You have a check dead. Come on,
let's get out of here.
Speaker 3 (23:37):
Were two well, Miss Robert said her husband had a
phone conversation. I'm gonna use that phone and Warren La
Paz about Frober.
Speaker 4 (23:44):
Hold it?
Speaker 5 (23:45):
What is it?
Speaker 4 (23:46):
Car coming down the road? Robert?
Speaker 3 (23:50):
Yeah, yeah, and he's got company, probably his important visitor.
When he finds out what's happening, you'll guess it's us.
We'll never get back to town before he does.
Speaker 4 (23:57):
Unless we drive.
Speaker 5 (23:59):
I will take a chair and on the confused and
grab that first truck.
Speaker 4 (24:05):
Clear, he's her in the truck. We must live, right, Yeah,
but for how long?
Speaker 8 (24:26):
There's a direct phone line all the way to Cavendo.
The operator Cavendo can put you through to La Passe bueno.
Speaker 5 (24:35):
She's talking Spanish. You better take it.
Speaker 8 (24:38):
It's as Lisson.
Speaker 2 (24:38):
You're a prober.
Speaker 8 (24:39):
For are they connect La.
Speaker 3 (24:41):
Passe Minutes running out, there's the prober looking frightened, waiting
for La Pause to answer.
Speaker 8 (24:46):
She has them ask for the embassy line bad American
is important? Friends, mister Diamond, I have them.
Speaker 3 (24:53):
Hello, yes, Amy, I listen carefully. I can't repeat. This
is Richard Diamond, American citizen calling from San Borja. But
Louis Froeber is not mining ten. It's pitch blend and
it's believed to be working for the Russian government.
Speaker 5 (25:07):
Look at it.
Speaker 4 (25:10):
Hello, Hello, what's the diamond?
Speaker 5 (25:13):
Okay, take a look at Prober and his friend?
Speaker 4 (25:16):
Hello? Hello, what happened?

look very good.
Speaker 2 (25:23):
Oh hello, the pause?
Speaker 4 (25:24):
Yes, mister gammon, go ahead. What about Frober?
