- Hannah O'Connell: Very neat. Tidy, Robert.
- Robert O'Connell: Mother!
- Hannah O'Connell: And that's the gold shipment. It took me three months to set up the caper, four of our people to crack that bank, and you hijacked it. From me.
- Robert O'Connell: I'll explain...
- Hannah O'Connell: It was you who betrayed me to the government, turned me in for a tax fraud, so you could have a free ride with my million in gold.
- Person on Tape: [voice on tape] Good morning, Mr. Phelps. Hannah O'Connel is the ruthless leader of a criminal gang that recently stole over a million dollars in gold bullion. Her lieutenants have been her two sons, Thomas and Robert. Recently, Robert turned government witness, enabling the authorities to indict Hannah O'Connel for tax fraud. However, she escaped with Thomas, and Robert is presumed dead. Conventional law enforcement agencies have located Hannah and Thomas O'Connel on their way to the Caribbean island of Jamada, a nation with which we have no extradition treaty. We cannot kidnap her on foreign soil, of course. Your mission, should you decide to accept it, will be to induce Hannah O'Connel to return to the United States of her own free will so that she can be captured and the gold recovered. This tape will self-destruct in five seconds. Good luck, Jim.

- Hannah O'Connell: You don't trust anyone. I like that. You're good. But you can't handle the deal alone. You'll need help to dispose of the gold.
- James Phelps: I've got help, Mrs. O'Connel.
