Dangerous assignment. Transcribe starring Bram Dunla vie as Steve Mitchell. Yeah, 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 prove that sometimes the nicest thing that can happen to a guy is to get kidnapped.

Morning Commissioner. You sent for me? Steve, does the name Ellis Chan let me know anything to you? Ellis Chan, sure. Otherwise known as the notorious Colonel Chan. Colonel Chan sold her a fortune. He'd been in the Orient for years. Do anything for a fast bug. Right now He's in the business of smuggling guns and ammunition into the islands of the South Pacific. That sounds like Chan. All right

He's operating an air freight line out of Port Moresby in New Guinea We've kept our eye on him for some time. So far we've been unable to find out who he's working for where the guns are coming from. Oh China probably Last night as Colonel Chan was preparing to take off from the air strip at Moresby

The armed men decided to close in, but he managed to get away on a hail of bullets. That guy is a slippery as a kneel and a barrel of oil. He can get very far though.

Early this morning his plane crashed at the Carl Sea just off the Solomon's. A neighbor destroyer picked him up. He was badly injured. Where is he now, Commissioner? The destroyer is taking him back to the hospital at Port Moresby.
