I've arrived at rendezvous, General.
We'll re-establish from Agent Ross' room.
Oh, Ms. Trench.
This just came in. Special delivery for Mr. Ross. It looked kind of important.
I trust you're all acquainted with The Jaguar.
Jaguar. Oh, yes, yes.
Six or twelve cylinder?
No, he's talking about a terrorist, Frank.
Jaguar's known as the most dangerous man in the world.
Since no one has ever actually seen The Jaguar,
I've had to use every resource at my disposal to uncover him.
Six months ago, I placed Special Agent Logan Ross
on the man I believed to be The Jaguar.
Yesterday, Ross' hotel room was destroyed by a bomb blast.
Able Ten is lucky she's alive.
As I take it, Agent Ross wasn't so fortunate?
Well, actually, Agent Ross never really existed.
He was nothing more than a clever sleight of hand,
to force The Jaguar to make his move.
What's the slimeball's name?
His name is Charles Jourdan
and he owns one of the most successful casinos in Monte Carlo.
Don't let the wheelchair throw you.
We haven't found conclusive evidence of any paralysis in Jourdan's medical package.
Her name is Dominique Conre
and she has been Mr. Jourdan's companion for the past six years.
A major client of Jourdan's is due in Monte Carlo in 24 hours,
regarding something called "Undertow. "
So you have just one day to find out who this client is,
what Undertow is all about, and how you're going to stop it.
What we need is someone to occupy Jourdan's attention
while the rest of us find out about Undertow.
Someone so deadly, so clever,
someone so sophisticated
that he can get under Jourdan's skin and push him to the brink.
There's only one man who fits that description.
Logan Ross.
May I help you?
Yes. The name is Ross. Logan Ross.
Oui, Monsieur Ross. The Presidential Suite.
And have my bags sent up to the room, please.
Of course.
Is there anything else I can do for Monsieur Ross?
Later, perhaps.
Nice, Murdock.
I guess it wasn't too bad, considering you're new at this.
Now let Jourdan know you're in town.
Passing Murdock off as a secret agent, Hannibal...
He's not even convincing as a sewage worker.
Face, somebody like The Jaguar
would spot you as a member of the A-Team in two seconds.
Now it had to be Murdock.
Or Frankie.
Frankie?
Orange juice, please.
Shaken, not stirred.
And I'd like a bottle of Dom Perignon '75.
My apologies, monsieur, but we are temporarily out of stock.
Will '78 suffice?
Well, I don't see why not.
I'll tell you why not. Because '78 is an abomination.
A mere shadow of '75. Try '71.
Except I wouldn't wash my car with that vintage.
Try '71.
And send it to Monsieur Jourdan.
Compliments of Mr. Ross. Logan Ross.
Yes. Yes. Thank you.
That was the American Embassy.
Ambassador Moore and his entourage will be stopping by this evening.
I'll take care of them personally.
Compliments of a guest, Monsieur Jourdan.
Shall I put this in your office?
Yes. That'll be fine.
Frederic? Yes, monsieur.
Where is the man who sent this message?
I couldn't help noticing. You've got wonderful form.
Merci. Are you a fan of diving?
No, I'm a fan of divers.
It's turned chilly. I'd get out of that wet suit if I were you.
You're not in this wet suit.
Not yet.
Mineral water.
May I suggest that you try that shaken, not stirred.
You're full of suggestions, aren't you, Monsieur...
It's Ross. Logan Ross. Allow me.
Are you here on business or pleasure, Monsieur Ross?
Whichever I can fit in.
Logan Ross. I still can't believe it's true.
He must have the lives of a cat to have lived through such an explosion.
How do you know for sure that it's him?
We've never actually had a look at him.
He registered under Ross' business cover. He wears Italian suits.
He tips 100-franc notes.
Very well.
We shall see how many lives Mr. Ross has remaining.
Summon Dominique.
Tell her the cocktail hour is over.
Perhaps we could have dinner this evening.
I'm afraid that would be impossible.
Dessert, then?
I don't eat anything sweet.
That reminds of me of an old story.
Do you know how many calories there are in a teaspoon of sugar?
This has been a pleasant diversion, but it's time I go.
Well, will I see you again?
Depends on where you look.
Good afternoon, Monsieur Ross.
Now this is a good hand.
What's so good about it? All I've got is nine.
That's the whole idea, Murdock.
See, in Chemin de Fer, nine is the best hand.
Murdock, here's your stake. 325,000 francs.
It's about $50,000.
With the reluctant compliments of Stockwell.
I love to see him suffer.
And if you lose a dime of that,
Stockwell's gonna make us hitchhike back home.
Hey, Hannibal, Jourdan is on his way down to the casino.
What a coincidence. So are we.
Card.
Monsieur Ross wins again.
I'm told you're quite a card player, Ambassador Moore.
I like to play a little, yeah.
You must join me in my private game later.
Take good care of the Ambassador, will you?
Thank you. See you later.
We have a request to raise the limit, Monsieur Jourdan.
I can see why. I admire your luck, monsieur.
It's Ross. Logan Ross.
Oh, my friend, Mr. Ross.
The champagne was quite a surprise.
You must allow me to thank you properly.
Well, certainly.
And perhaps you'd allow Dominique to share a drink with me this evening.
I'm afraid that would be quite impossible.
Another time, perhaps.
And in deference to my other guests, I'm afraid the house limit must remain.
However, if you're looking for more stimulating adventure,
we have a seat open in the 9:00 game,
when the limit will be lifted.
Splendid, splendid. 9:00.
That gives me time to tidy up a bit.
Might I suggest that you store those in the cage, where they will be safer?
Well, thank you, but I like to keep my winnings close to the breast.
They might come in handy. 9:00. Give these to the boys.
Yes, monsieur.
Monsieur Ross has quite a way about him, don't you agree, darling?
Yes. Yes, such a shame
his visit can't be longer.
Yes? Room service.
Shall I set you up on the terrace?
Yes, that'll be splendid. Thank you.
Well, I do hope that won't appear on the bill.
Compliments of Monsieur Jourdan.
Thanks for the help, Murdock!
It wouldn't do for Logan Ross to break a sweat.
Let's get rid of these guys before they find out we exist.
I'm sorry I'm late.
I had trouble with room service.
You did say 9:00?
Yes, of course.
Fetch another chair for Monsieur Ross.
I lose track of who's coming. Please forgive me.
My winnings, they came in handy sooner than I thought.
Monsieur Jourdan wins again.
It appears the odds have turned against you, Monsieur Ross.
Yes. If I didn't have such a beautiful face to look at,
the evening would be a total loss.
Monsieur Jourdan wins again.
What took you? Murdock's down to his last fifty grand.
Don't worry about it. I figured out how Jourdan's cheating.
He's using those glasses, those colored glasses
to read infrared markings off the cards.
Is that thing gonna work?
I hit the right frequency,
those overhead lights blow, Mr. Jourdan's on his own.
Card.
Well, that makes things cozier, doesn't it?
Replace those bulbs immediately.
Come, Monsieur Jourdan, you're not going to hold up the game?
There's plenty of light.
It will only take a moment.
I'm certain you can read these markings in the dark.
I checked out Jourdan's office. No problem.
Well, let's take a look inside.
Murdock, keep Jourdan and his men busy for a while.
It's amazing how quickly one's luck can change.
Now, give these to the boys.
Merci, Monsieur Ross.
Now if you'll excuse me a moment, I won't be long.
The alarm is bypassed and in record time. Thank you very much.
It's got to be fast, guys. Where's the safe?
Here's something.
Some navigational charts of the Mediterranean. Check them out, Frank.
Sure makes me wonder why a bigtime casino boss
would have navigational charts hidden in his safe.
Hey.
Look at this, "Arrival time, 10:00 a. m. tomorrow. "
"650,000 francs," signed Kamal.
That's 10 times the house limit.
This has got to be The Jaguar's method of getting his payment.
His clients come into the casino and then lose the exact amount they owe him.
Yeah. Almost makes it seem nice and legitimate.
Yeah.
Well, looks like this Kamal was willing to pay 650,000 francs
to make Undertow happen.
Ross is taking a long time. Go and check him out.
I got the bug all ready, Hannibal.
Let Jourdan know he's got a visitor, Frank.
How could Ross break into my office?
I gave orders for his every step to be watched!
It doesn't seem possible.
I had two men watching the door.
I want Ross found! Now!
Well, forgive me. I hope I haven't held the game up too long.
We surprised Ross before he could take these.
In any case, they wouldn't mean anything to him.
I don't know how he keeps doing this.
But perhaps we should hold off
on Operation Undertow tomorrow...
Ross will not compromise me.
I'm sorry, Mr. Jourdan.
You'll be even sorrier if my plans are disrupted.
Fortunately, I'm taking Mr. Ross' future into my own hands.
Tomorrow? We don't even know what it is yet.
Hannibal, according to these coordinates,
Undertow is taking place
in the Golfe du Lion, about 10 miles south of Marseilles.
Kamal will be in tomorrow at 10:00.
We'll have to have a little chat with him.
Murdock get back all right?
I haven't seen Murdock all night.
But Logan Ross is safe and sound.
Well, tell Logan Ross to come in here. I want to update him.
No. Please, please. Allow me, Frankie.
Allow me to summon the great Logan Ross.
Well, well, well.
Nice fit, don't you think?
Well, it never looked that good on me.
Tell me do you always walk into a strange man's room and try on his clothes?
I thought you'd be happy to see me.
I thought you'd be very happy to see me.
I'm just surprised, that's all.
I was under the impression
that Charles kept you on a rather tight leash.
Now where would you get that idea?
Charles wouldn't put any demands on me.
He's not that way at all.
Yes, I'm sure he's quite a catch.
Tell me what's the purpose of your little expedition?
You do go on, don't you?
Charles wouldn't stoop to such tricks.
He happens to be a wonderful man and he treats me splendidly.
Well, then you should go back to him, by all means. But do leave the shirt.
Logan, please. I thought there was an attraction between us.
Let me stay for a little while.
Are you paid by the hour?
Tell me, how far did Charles tell you you could go to get your information?
Logan, please.
Ever since you arrived in Monte Carlo, he's been a changed man.
He's almost obsessed with your presence.
I've never seen this side of him before.
It scares me.
Well, you've got good instincts.
Please don't make me go.
I don't know what he might do to me in his frame of mind.
All right.
You can stay for a bit.
Thank you, Logan.
On one condition.
That you tell me everything
that Charles wants to know.
Anything I can find out.
Murdock?
Murdock, not here! Take her somewhere else, will you?
Murdock, can you hear me?
Murdock, I told you...
Murdock, Murdock...
Look, if you think I'm gonna stand out here in the rain
while you disport yourself...
I know you can hear me. Would you...
Oh, no!
Good morning, darling.
You must have had quite an interesting chat with Mr. Ross.
Mostly we discussed politics.
He must be quite a conversationalist
to have made such drivel last throughout the night.
He's a bore, Charles.
He's no match for you in any department.
Don't play me for a fool, my darling.
It would be such a waste.
Let's go, everybody!
Rise and shine! Up and at them!
Face, what are you doing out here?
Oversleeping? You're supposed to be watching Jourdan, man.
Look at the time. You're supposed to...
I don't believe you're sleeping...
You left me out there
to be rained on
while you were in there with her!
What are you complaining about? At least you got some sleep.
I was up all night.
Kamal checked in this morning.
He should be having breakfast with B.A.
Face, I think you're choking him.
You want to let go now?
Please, let me go, let me go!
Inside, get inside!
We shall see which one of you is my betrayer.
What is happening here?
I do not know, my friend.
One of you have brought me false instructions
to change the site of my next assignment
to a place where a regiment of International Police
is waiting for me.
You are The Jaguar?
I think I know
who the guilty one is.
I am completely loyal to you.
As am I.
Jaguar! Please no!
Now, I hope
I have not shot the wrong man.
What was the original agreement?
650,000 francs to assassinate
Ambassador Moore today, at the Opera House.
And Undertow, Kamal.
What about the Golfe du Lion?
Undertow?
What is Undertow? I have been told nothing about this.
Nothing! You must believe me!
I'm satisfied we do not have another guilty one.
Take this guy outside and put him on ice.
Murdock, get in here.
Didn't look like he knew anything about Undertow.
Well, we'll take care of the Ambassador first.
Get hold of the Opera House. Find out what time the curtain goes up.
We're still okay. Face is covering Jourdan, right now.
Jourdan got away. And he left his wheelchair behind.
Are you all right, Mr. Ambassador?
Yes, yes.
Good Lord. What's going on here?
I believe it's Rigoletto.
How did he get away so fast?
For a guy who doesn't walk, Jourdan sure gets around.
Everything's arranged?
Yes, sir. Colonel Safir has been informed of the change in rendezvous.
Excellent.
The caterers are setting up. Will there be just yourself and the Colonel for lunch?
No. Dominique and a guest will also be joining.
For someone who invited me to lunch, you don't look very happy.
You know very well it was Charles' idea, Logan.
You're only asking for trouble by coming today.
Well, if I didn't come, Charles might throw a tantrum
and I'd hate for you to be the bone of contention.
At least be careful.
At this point, Charles is capable of anything.
Nonsense! I'm sure, he's going to be a perfect gentleman.
Pull!
Hello, my darling.
Dominique.
And Mr. Ross.
How nice of you to join me.
Well, it's my pleasure.
I'm going to go below and change.
Pull!
Couldn't you find a fishing rod to your liking?
Haven't you ever shot skeet?
You simply blow a clay pigeon out of the sky. Let me show you.
Pull!
What could be simpler?
It looks terribly difficult.
Would you pull one for me?
Pull!
That Logan's quite a shot.
I don't like it, Hannibal.
Murdock out there where we can't reach him.
Well, Operation Undertow's going down today.
And that's our only chance to find out what it is.
Besides, he's not all alone.
Frankie will keep an eye on him.
Let's put formalities aside, shall we?
Ever since you arrived in Monte Carlo,
you've managed to make quite a pest of yourself.
I don't think Ambassador Moore would agree with you there.
Without a doubt, you've proved a worthy adversary.
So, instead of merely killing you,
I'm first gonna give you the chance to become part of my organization.
Well, I'm flattered, really.
What would my duties entail?
Removing the dead bodies that you have left behind?
I advise you to give my offer serious consideration.
The alternative is much less attractive.
Well, I'll consider it, but I'm afraid I can't take it seriously.
You disappoint me, Mr. Ross.
I obviously gave you more credit than you deserve.
Take him below and shoot him.
Give my regards to the sharks, Mr. Ross.
I have been told
that sharks avoid a strong undertow at any cost.
An interesting choice of words.
You told me to do away with all formalities.
Well, I assure you, I know everything there is to know about Operation Undertow.
You know two meaningless words.
Take him away.
Do you think I work alone?
On second thought, lock him in cabin two.
Only a temporary reprieve, Mr. Ross.
They're leaving.
Cast off, B.A. Fire her up, Face.
I want to stay close.
Logan, are you all right?
For the moment. My hands.
I've never seen Charles like this before.
I'm afraid something terrible is going to happen.
Nothing's going to happen, but you have to help me.
Where is Charles headed?
I heard him talk to Frobe about meeting someone at sea.
I'm scared! Do you know what this is all about?
Not yet, but I intend to find out.
Let go of the girl.
So I was right, my darling, after all.
You have betrayed me.
That will be your misfortune,
unless Mr. Ross would care to spare you a great deal of pain
by revealing all he knows of Operation Undertow.
Hmm?
No, of course not.
Death before dishonor for the great Logan Ross.
The sharks will eat well today.
Keep a very close eye on Mr. Ross.
Hey, Hannibal, check this out.
Looks like Jourdan's got company.
Let me out of here! I want to see Jourdan! I'll talk.
Oh, no.
Frankie? Frankie? Are you all right?
Speak to me. Speak to me.
Prince James' route has been verified this morning,
so your charts are accurate.
Then we have a bargain.
By 4:00 this afternoon,
Prince James will be but a memory.
Monsieur Jourdan, Ross has escaped!
He knocked one of the caterers down!
That man is relentless.
That's our cue.
Prepare the launch!
Goodbye, Mr. Ross.
Now, there's an international warrant out for Frobe, but he's still loose.
So be careful, Dominique. Of course.
I don't know how I'll ever thank you.
You wouldn't happen to have a sister, would you?
I can't bear to think of you in the arms of another woman.
Must you go so soon? Well,
I'm afraid my government wouldn't have it any other way.
Frobe, The Jaguar. I didn't see that coming!
Always the quiet ones.
It's too bad it took us so long to find out that Jourdan was really paralyzed.
We'll pick him up,
deliver him to Stockwell, and then go home.
Go get him, B.A.
Frobe bought the remote limo gag just fine.
Got him, Hannibal.
Frobe's in the office behind the registration desk.
Let's go.
Wait, wait. You can't come in here! What is...
Stop! You can't go in there! Wait!
Did you take care of them, Frobe?
Excellent job as usual.
Dominique? I really didn't see that coming!
It's always the sexy ones.
Come on, we got to get to the Prince before she does.
Attention, Boston Whaler.
Please stay calm. We're pulling along the side.
Yes, miss. What seems to be the trouble?
My engine failed.
And what with the sharks in these waters,
thank goodness my radio was operative.
Oh, you're lucky. The Prince's yacht is the only vessel in the area.
The Prince? I saw the flag, but I never realized.
Is the Prince really on board?
Taking his royal nap.
Take the young lady to her cabin.
You may sail back with us if you like, miss. Thank you.
If you need anything, just call.
Merci. I will.
Sweet dreams, my Prince.
Don't take it too badly. The old Prince-balloon trick never fails.
Sorry to spoil your fun, my dear.
What were you going to do, Dominique?
Kill everybody on board?
That sounds kind of chancy.
I never take chances.
B.A.!
Captain, did she bring any luggage on board?
A small case. I'll get it.
It's a bomb. 10 seconds.
It's almost ready.
They're getting away!
They'll be back.
Someone throw over lifelines at them.
I just received a signal from Prince James.
Well, I hope you gave him my regards.
Most definitely.
As a matter of fact, the Prince requests that you gentlemen
stay aboard as his guests for as long as you wish.
Tell him we accept.
The Prince also asked that I deliver a special message
to your Mr. Murdock. Where might he be?
This is wonderful champagne, Logan.
This is Dom Perignon '71, if I recall.
Are there any other surprises I should know about?
Just one.
Won't your friends be wondering where you are?
You might be right.
