So
am
I
.
But
we
’
ll
assume
he
is
not
,
until
we
have
seen
his
bones
.
But
it
’
s
one
or
the
other
–
so
we
assume
that
he
is
kidnapped
.
Jill
,
what
’
s
the
greatest
danger
about
kidnapping
?
No
,
don
’
t
bother
your
pretty
head
;
I
’
ll
tell
you
.
The
greatest
danger
to
the
victim
is
a
hue
-
and
-
cry
–
because
if
a
kidnapper
is
frightened
,
he
will
almost
always
kill
his
victim
.
Had
you
thought
of
that
?
"
Gillian
looked
woeful
and
did
not
answer
.
Harshaw
went
on
gently
,
"
I
am
forced
to
say
that
I
think
it
is
extremely
likely
that
Ben
is
dead
.
He
has
been
gone
too
long
.
But
we
’
ve
agreed
to
assume
that
he
is
alive
–
until
we
know
otherwise
.
Now
you
intend
to
look
for
him
.
Gillian
,
can
you
tell
me
how
you
will
go
about
this
?
Without
increasing
the
risk
that
Ben
will
be
done
away
with
by
the
unknown
party
or
parties
who
kidnapped
him
?
"
"
Uh
-
But
we
know
who
they
are
!
"
"
Do
we
?
"
"
Of
course
we
do
!
The
same
people
who
were
keeping
Mike
a
prisoner
–
the
government
!
"
Harshaw
shook
his
head
.
"
We
don
’
t
know
it
.
That
’
s
an
assumption
based
on
what
Ben
was
doing
when
last
seen
.
But
it
’
s
not
a
certainty
.
Ben
has
made
lots
of
enemies
with
his
column
and
by
no
means
all
of
them
are
in
the
government
.
I
can
think
of
several
who
would
willingly
kill
him
if
they
could
get
away
with
it
.
However
-
"
Harshaw
frowned
.
"
Your
assumption
is
all
we
have
to
go
on
.
But
not
‘
the
government
’
–
that
’
s
too
sweeping
a
term
.
‘
The
government
’
is
several
million
people
,
nearly
a
million
in
Washington
alone
.
We
have
to
ask
ourselves
:
Whose
toes
were
being
stepped
on
?
What
person
or
persons
?
Not
‘
the
government
’
–
but
what
individuals
?
"
"
Why
,
that
’
s
plain
enough
,
Jubal
.
I
told
you
,
just
as
Ben
told
it
to
me
.
It
’
s
the
Secretary
General
himself
.
"
"
No
,
"
Harshaw
denied
.
"
While
that
may
be
true
,
it
’
s
not
useful
to
us
.
No
matter
who
did
what
,
if
it
is
anything
rough
or
illegal
,
it
won
’
t
be
the
Secretary
General
who
did
it
,
even
if
he
benefits
by
it
.
Nobody
would
ever
be
able
to
prove
that
he
even
knew
about
it
.
It
is
likely
that
he
would
not
know
about
it
–
not
the
rough
stuff
.
No
,
Jill
,
we
need
to
find
out
which
lieutenant
in
the
Secretary
General
’
s
large
staff
’
of
stooges
handled
this
operation
.
But
that
isn
’
t
as
hopeless
as
it
sounds
–
I
think
.
When
Ben
was
taken
in
to
see
that
phony
‘
Man
from
Mars
,
’
one
of
Mr
.
Douglas
’
s
executive
assistants
was
with
him
–
tried
to
talk
him
out
of
it
,
then
went
with
him
.
It
now
appears
that
this
same
top
-
level
stooge
also
dropped
out
of
sight
last
Thursday
–
and
I
don
’
t
think
it
is
a
coincidence
,
not
when
he
appears
to
have
been
in
charge
of
the
phony
‘
Man
from
Mars
.
’
If
we
find
him
,
we
may
find
Ben
,
Gilbert
Berquist
is
his
name
and
I
have
reason
-
