Ford hands Straker the phone
STRAKER: (firmly) I understand you have a jet over the North Atlantic, grid reference G-6. Right. Tell your pilot to alter course.
Pauses;
STRAKER; (very angrily) Well, anywhere! Just get him out of that area!
Pauses for answer
STRAKER; (sharply) Look, I don't care how much money it costs! (Pauses to listen to reply).....Oh. How much? Oh. Sorry to have troubled you.
131; Sound Stage 4. Int.
Foster runs towards the door
Close up; Straker presses a button on the panel
Close up; the bolt on the door locks
Foster turns and faces Straker, his hands flat against the door, panic-struck, fear in his eyes
Straker moves towards him, menacingly, holding the gun.
Straker stands, and aims the gun at Foster.
Pulls the trigger. Two loud bangs. (Sound FX)
Foster falls.
STRAKER; Oh Shit..... Real bullets.... Bugger.
Straker. (looking perplexed). Tugs jacket straight before turning and walking away.
179. INT Straker’s office (HQ)
Straker behind desk (seated), Freeman by door. Foster in front of desk
STRAKER: (thoughtfully , fingers steepled) It’s been a test for you Foster. You followed a predictable set of clues. You’ve shown a certain initiative, but basically it was an inevitable conclusion that led you to the studio. And now......
FOSTER; (worriedly) What happens now?
STRAKER; You realise we can never let you go free. You know too much. Besides which. SHADO rule 43a states that we are absolutely forbidden to recruit anyone with sideburns like those. Sorry. (pulls out a gun and shoots Foster dead)
FREEMAN; He could have shaved them off you know.
STRAKER; (thoughtfully). Oh. I never thought of that. Shit. Too late now.
