Dangerous Assignment: Middle East - A Tray Of Dirty Dishes

Dangerous assignments starring Brian Donlave 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.

But when I walk into the Commissioner's office I don't realize this assignment's going to wind up with me depending for my life on a tray full of dirty dishes. Morning Commissioner. Ruth said you had an assignment for me.

I do Steve. You're playing leaves for the Middle East in one hour. The Middle East don't tell me I have to crawl along that pipeline over there looking for leaks. You'll be looking for leaks all right but not oil.

I don't get you. Steve were on the verge of suffering a very serious diplomatic and strategic defeat. Well, nothing like an older chair to start the day on, I always say. What's the deal? Take a look at this map of the Middle East, Steve.

Ah. Sometime now, we've been negotiating very secretly with this country here. What kind of negotiations? Negotiations which would pave the way for United Nations bases in that area. I see. But why all the secrecy?

The country in question insisted on it. You see, they've been periodically intimidated by powerful interests to the northeast of them. They wanted to have all the negotiations concluded before any information concerning them fell into what we might call the wrong hand.

Wait a minute, you say there's been a leak? Is that what you're talking about? Exactly. This morning we learned through confidential sources that the document containing the complete preliminary discussions regarding military installations is now in the hands of those hostile interests I was talking about.
