1:19:02
That's here. And then, it's up to the top.
1:19:05
Nobody's ever been on that part
of the face. We don't know what's there.
1:19:08
Supposing you can't cling to the edges?
1:19:11
Suppose you get forced down
into the gut of the chute?
1:19:14
I've no interest in suicide.
1:19:17
If the edges are not a go, we'll retreat
and follow one of the classic routes.
1:19:20
All that can stop us the weather.
1:19:22
Just one thing.
1:19:25
Your route doesn't allow for retreat
in case we're blocked from above.
1:19:29
I consider it self-defeating
to plan in terms of retreat.
1:19:33
I consider it stupid not to.
1:19:35
I'll leave the planning
for retreat with you, Doctor.
1:19:39
He has more experience
than I in retreating.
1:19:44
May I take it my plan is accepted?
1:19:47
Fine.
1:19:49
Our business is settled.
1:19:50
I suggest we relax and have a drink.
1:20:04
Is this hotel always so crowded?
1:20:10
Only when there's a climb.
1:20:13
Then the Eiger birds start flocking in.
1:20:15
- Eiger birds?
- Yeah, jet-setters.
1:20:19
Assorted zombies
who come here to watch a climb.
1:20:22
If they get lucky, they get
to watch a man die on the mountain.
1:20:25
- That's grim.
- So is the Eiger.
1:20:31
It even looks grim.
1:20:34
Do you have to go up?
1:20:36
Unless the search division
identifies the assassin first.
1:20:39
They've come up empty.
1:20:41
Is that what you came here to tell me?
1:20:43
- As a courier?
- I could have phoned.
1:20:47
I just wanted to come up and be with you.
1:20:50
I had this fantastic speech planned.
1:20:54
I was going to say it quick
before you interrupted or walked away.
1:20:57
- How's it go?
- I forgot.
