Dangerous Assignment: Picking Up a Bomb (Saigon)

Dangerous assignment. Transcribe starring Brian Donlevier, Steve Mitchell. Yeah, danger is my assignment. I could send to a lot of places I can't even pronounce. They all spell the same thing, though, trouble. But when I walk into the commission this office, I don't realize that all I have to do on this assignment is sit tight right on top of a powdered cake.

Morning, Commissioner. You sent to me. Steve, I want you to go to a certain cafe in Saigon, Indochina, and pick up a package. It won't be marked handled with care. care should it be definitely it's a bomb a bomb for all great we don't know who's going to show up to deliver that package to you but we do know the man who's

supposed to pick it up and plant it somewhere he's an american newspaper man named richard melton how do we find that out commissioner melton told us the whole story you see someone in sargon tried to put the pressure on him threatened the lives of melton's wife and his children here in the states if he didn't do as he

was told and still melton didn't knuckle under it no he played along with them to see what he could find out. Meanwhile, of course, we've seen to it that his family is safe. What has he found out?

Very little, actually. They've been very cagey about giving him too much information. Does he have any idea why he was singled out for the job? No, I did all. Being a reporter and an American at that, he'd have access to a lot of places others wouldn't.

That's the key, Steve. I'm sure of it. Get over to Saigon and talk with him. If possible, I want you to take his place at the cafe. Find out what this is all about. Well, that's it, Steve.
