Transcript
Dangerous assignment starring Brian Donnlevi as Steve Mitchell Morning, Commissioner. Morning Steve. I was a flight back from Switzerland. Smore the cell. Just got in. Where'd you like it? Because you're taking the next plane for Cairo. Cairo? You mean today? Look, I don't even have a clean shirt left.
You can dunk it in the Nile when you get there. All right. Yes, Commissioner. How are you doing on Steve's plane ticket? I was able to get him a space on the next plane. Takes off in an hour. Good.
Oh, great. I am at a date for a week and now you want to fix me up with a mummy. Steve, remember Sheik Haroon? Sure, he's no friend of mine. He should be. What do you mean? About five years ago I taught him to play poker and he cleaned me.
As you know, the Sheik controls a territory on the edge of the Sahara. He has a walled city there. Yeah, I was there once, quite a joint. We think there's uranium ore in his territory.
You don't think the Sheik's making himself an A-bomb, do you? No, but we do know that six months ago we concluded an agreement permitting representatives of several countries to explore and develop the area. That agreement expires next Wednesday and the sheik has suddenly refused to renew it or even see our representatives. Yeah, sound like someone up the adiyan. Yes.
Apparently these other interests have the inside track with them right now. We want you to change all that. Oh great, sounds like a cinch. Where is the sheik now in his walled city? No. According to our information, he's staying on his houseboat in the Nile at Cairo right now.
