Memorable Quotes from Cyril Shaps
1 quoteBetrayal Revealed Amidst Success and Wealth
Stromberg
Well gentlemen, now that the moment has come to bid you farewell, I congratulate both you, Doctor, and you, Professor, on your brilliant work in the development of the submarine tracking system. Thanks primarily to you, I am happy to say that the first phase of our operation has met with considerable success. I have instructed my assistant to have paid into your Swiss bank account the sum of ten million dollars each.
Prof. Markovitz
Thank you, sir.
Dr. Bechmann
Thank you indeed.
Stromberg
And that, I think, concludes our business. Before you go, however, I very much regret to inform you that a dangerous development has recently been brought to my notice. Someone has been attempting to sell the plans of our tracking project to competing world powers; someone intimately associated with the project. My dear, it would perhaps be more seemly if you were to leave us. Thank you. It was you who betrayed me!
[to his pretty young blonde assistant; The young woman leaves and goes to an elevator. A trap opens under her and she is plunged into a shark tank, while Stromberg and the professors are watching her punishment on a screen]
Assistant
No!
Stromberg
You had access to all the information. And now you will pay the penalty. Once again, gentlemen, my most profound thanks.
[closes the screen, leaving the assistant to her horrible death; to professors]
