Dangerous Assignment: Trained Seal

Dangerous assignment, starring Brian Donlevy as Steve Mitchell Danger is my assignment. I get sent to a lot of places I can't even pronounce. They all spell the same thing though, trouble. But when I walk into the commissioner's office I don't realize this assignment's going to end up with me smashing a spy ring because a trained seal gets a bad case of the blues.

Commissioner, both said you wanted to see me. I don't see. You're leaving Vast and Bull Turkey on the next plane. Oh, great. Last time I was there, as I remember, I got stabbed at, shot at, and beaten up in that order.

Well, maybe you'll be lucky enough to change the order of events around a little this time. Oh, swell. You'll probably need to take a large rubber ball and a dead fish, would you? Let's have that again.

You're the contact a character named Lefty over there. So, what's a rubber ball and a dead fish got to do with it? Lefty is a trained seal. You know, for a minute, I thought you said a trained seal.

That's just what I did say. More particularly, You ought to talk to his owner, a vote will entertain a name Sam. Just a minute commissioner, I'm a pretty patient guy. You send me to a lot of strange places to do a lot of strange things.

But if you think I'm going to fly clear to Turkey to audition a trained seal act... Why, Steve, I thought you always fancy yourself as a sort of talent scout. Well, in certain fields maybe, but trained seals yet.

All kidding aside, Steve, we're up against a tough proposition. You mean the seal wants more dolph, Rezak? I mean there's been a very clever spy ring operating throughout the Middle East. Its entire operation seems to depend on one person, quite a bit of confidential information from this country seems to have been transmitted by this ring.
