:10:02
I'm so glad you're pleased, Mr. Townsend.
:10:05
But, I'm afraid, just as obvious.
:10:09
What the devil is all this about?
Why was I brought here?

:10:14
Games? Must we?
:10:18
Not that I mind a slight case of abduction,
but I have tickets for the theatre tonight.

:10:22
To a show I was looking forward to.
:10:24
I get unreasonable about things like that.
:10:27
With such expert play-acting,
you make this very room a theatre.

:10:32
Leonard, have you met
our distinguished guest?

:10:37
He's a well-tailored one, isn't he?
:10:40
My secretary is a great admirer
of your methods, Mr. Kaplan.

:10:43
Elusiveness, however misguided--
:10:45
Wait a minute.
:10:47
Did you call me "Kaplan"?
:10:49
I know you're a man of many names,
but I'll accept your current choice.

:10:53
Current choice?
:10:55
My name is Roger Thornhill.
It's never been anything else.

:10:58
Of course.
:11:00
Your friends picked up the wrong package
when they bundled me out here in the car.

:11:04
Sit down, Mr. Kaplan.
:11:07
I told you, I'm not Kaplan, whoever he is.
:11:10
-Excuse me.
-Yes?

:11:12
The guests are here, dear.
:11:13
Look after them.
I'll be with you in a few minutes.

:11:18
Now, shall we get down to business?
:11:20
I'm all for that.
:11:22
Simply, I'd like you to tell me
how much you know of our arrangements...

:11:25
...and how you've come by
this information.

:11:27
-I don't expect to get this for nothing.
-Of course not.

:11:30
Don't misunderstand.
:11:31
I don't expect you to fall in
with the suggestion...

:11:34
...but the least I can do is afford you
the opportunity of surviving the evening.

:11:42
What is that supposed to mean?
:11:44
Why don't you surprise me,
Mr. Kaplan, and say yes?

:11:46
I've told you--
:11:48
We know where you're headed for.
:11:49
I know where I'm headed.
The Winter Garden Theatre in New York.

:11:53
And I think I'd better get going.
