:30:00
and thinking that Phuong
could easily become one of them,
:30:05
I want to protect her.
:30:07
What did she say when you
offered her your protection?
:30:10
- I haven't told her yet.
- You haven't?
:30:12
No. I didn't think it would be right.
I wanted to speak with you first.
:30:17
Look, if you two were married
that would be completely different.
:30:21
I can never marry her. Oh, shit!
:30:24
My wife would never give me a divorce.
She's a Catholic.
:30:31
They're getting closer. They're walking in.
:30:58
Dear Thomas - I guess I'll be
back in Saigon ahead of you.
:31:01
And I wanted to reassure you
:31:05
that I won't go to see Phuong
until after you return.
:31:09
If you can make the next transport out, you
should be back by the end of the week.
:31:15
I can check in with your assistant
to see if you made it.
:31:18
If so, I'll come around to see you
both together on Friday.
:31:22
Say 5.00?
:31:25
Anyone due to go out to Hong Kong?
:31:27
Someone from Reuters, I believe.
:31:30
Type this up and ask him
to cable it to London for me.
:31:33
- Your big story?
- Yes.
:31:35
Massacre at Phat Diem.
Nobody did it, of course.
:31:39
Not the French, not the communists...
:31:42
But there are rumours.
:31:46
- What's going on?
- I forgot.
:31:49
- What?
- It's a rally.
:31:51
- A new political party.
- Bloody hell.
:31:54
I think I'd better leave your car here, sir.
We can walk.
