Dangerous Assignment: Retrieve Gouczek (French Riviera)

The assignment starring Brian Donnlevi as Steve Mitchell. Here's my assignment. I get sent to a lot of places I can't even pronounce. They all spell the same thing. They'll trouble.

But when I walk into the Commissioner's office, I don't realize that this assignment's going to prove that not only is the pen mightier than the sword, the ink bottle is mightier than the gun. Morning Commissioner. Ruth said you had an assignment for me.

I do, Steve, and your plane leaves in an hour. Oh, well. What uncivilized neck of the world I get sent to this time. French Riviera. There, there, there. I must have been living right lately.

Hey, tell me, do they still wear those bathing suits over their commission? I'm afraid you won't have much time to be looking at bathing suits, Steve. I'm more interested in looking at an elderly man.

You want a bet? OK, so who's the elderly man? Jan Bisco. Oh, the Czech author? Yes, he's been living on the Riviera since the war, Steve. He's been instrumental in smuggling quite a few worthwhile citizens out from behind the Iron Curtain.

Oh, that's news to me. It should be. It's a very closely guarded secret. Because, obviously, certain interests would like very much to know who's mass-deminding the operation that's been a thorn in their side for the last four years.

I still don't see what the deal is or where I fit in. Steve Bisco has completed all the arrangements to smuggle out into free Europe the most important man yet. Who is it? His name is Gocek. He's an atomic scientist.

And he can give us a first-hand account of the status of atomic research behind the Iron Curtain. I see enough said, where's this Gocek now? He's been hiding in Prague waiting for Bisco to make the necessary arrangements.
