Colonel Zorek:
Did you forget our curfew law, doctor? No one is allowed on the streets after 7 without a permit. Why did you try to escape?

Dr. Dan Maynard:
Is that what I was trying to do?

Colonel Zorek:
[Reading notes] Left your office at 9:21. Cross Nanjing Road at Khartoum through narrow winding alley to Honan Road one block north. Reach Soochow Creek at 9:38 by way of still another alley. Do you like dark, rat-infested alleys, doctor?

Dr. Dan Maynard:
Which one did you crawl out of?

Colonel Zorek:
You will speak to civil authorities with respect.

Dr. Dan Maynard:
A stooge and a Commie!

Colonel Zorek:
[Slaps Maynard's face] You will be held in protective custody.

Dr. Dan Maynard:
Just make sure you have someone around to protect you.
