Douglas, darling.
:09:06
Yes, ma'am?
:09:08
You seem to have dropped
some of my things on the floor.

:09:11
Would you kindly
pick them up for me?

:09:14
Yes, ma'am.
:09:19
That's a good boy.
:09:27
Do I still have any influence in that
evil town, or have they forgotten me?

:09:32
Ma'am, with all due respect,
why me?

:09:35
Why, because I like you, Douglas.
And my feelings are a bit hurt...

:09:40
that anyone would be that anxious
to get away from me.

:09:43
Well, I certainly don't mean
to hurt your feelings, Mrs. Carlisle...

:09:46
but my assignment here is finished,
and I'd like to get back to Washington.

:09:51
Washington is a dead-end town,
career-wise...

:09:54
unless you're there purely to make
money, which I'm sure you wouldn't be.

:09:57
I'd like to go back.
:09:59
- Well, I'm sorry, but I need you here.
- Mrs. Carlisle?

:10:04
Yes?
:10:06
I'd just like you to know
that I came back of my own free will.

:10:09
As an S.A. I. C... I could have refused
,
this assignment. But I didn't.

:10:13
S.A. I.C.? What is that?
:10:15
Ma'am, you know what that is.
:10:17
No, I really don't.
:10:19
You do.
:10:21
Don't tell me what I do and don't know.
That is not your place.

:10:26
What is a "saic"?
:10:29
S.A.I.C. Stands for
"special agent in charge."

:10:35
Oh, I see. A special agent, are we?
And in charge, no less.

:10:40
My, my, my.
:10:42
You rarely meet someone who's
a secret agent who's also in charge.

:10:46
And why is he in char ge?
:10:49
Well. Because he's
so doggone special.

:10:52
And you did not come back
of your own free will.

:10:55
If you had a free will,
you'd be miles from here.

:10:59
I have some very exciting
news for you.
