Transcript

Dangerous assignments starring Brian Donlevay as Steve Mitchell. 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's office, I don't realize this assignment's going to wind up with a native bandit giving me a big break by heaving a knife at me. Good morning, Commissioner.

Ruth said you wanted to see me. I do, Steve. And don't bother to sit down. You're playing Lee's for Malaya in one hour. Malaya, look, I just got out of one jungle. Don't tell me you're sending me back into another one.

Just what I am telling you, Steve. Aren't you sort of stretching my luck a little? That's the right word for it all right. Stretching? Yeah. What do you mean? Rubber. A joke's true yet. Okay, what's the deal?

Steve, take any list of vital war materials. Rubbers near the top. So, what am I supposed to do? Go over to Malay and tap a few rubber trees? You don't have to. They've quite a few thousand natives on the job already over there.

No, it's what's happening after the rubber is harvested. They're well-interested in. Just what is happening. A gang of so-called bandits has been raiding the various plantations, Steve. They're organizing quipped like a small army. They've been setting fire to buildings, terrorizing the natives, and then generally interfering seriously with the entire operation over there.

I see. Look, isn't this a matter for the British? They've asked our cooperation in the matter, Steve, and I think the main reason is, there's a rumor that the leader of these bandits is an American.
