Dangerous assignment, starring Brian Daimlerty 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 that this assignment's going to wind up with my getting shot at just for trying to turn off a radio program. Good morning Commissioner. Real city had an assignment for me.
I do Steve. Ever thought of getting into radio? Who me? I should say not. Why? You holding auditions or something? I want you to get into the business just long enough to get somebody else out of it.
Oh, I'm not sure. Now, look, you look, Steve, at this map of the Balkan area. This country here. That's about the only friendly country left in that area. The right things are going, it may not be friendly, for much longer.
Oh, Steve, there's an outlaw broadcasting station somewhere in that country. The man who's doing the broadcasting is filling the air with a choice assortment of lies and propaganda. What about? About our country and theirs.
The result has been to put a strain on our relations with them and the set up internal tensions over there which are in effect carrying the country apart. Is there by any chance an election coming up over there soon?
Yes. Steve, we know who's behind this broadcast, all right. But what we've got to do is to stop him. Well, it seems to me that this is a matter for the Balkan country to handle.
What's it got to do with us? We think the broadcasting is being done by an American. What? Government over there has asked our cooperation. I see. Obviously they haven't been able to locate this broadcasting station.
