The Killer



Good morning, Mr. Phelps.  A hired killer, Eddie Lorca, will arrive in this city on Trans America Flight number 1 on Fridy.  Lorca has a contract with the most powerful underworld leder in this part of the United States, a man we know only by his codename, Scorpio.  Lorca's mission is to kill someone.  We do not know whom he will kill, or where, when, or how he will do it.  Your mission, Jim, should you decide to acept it, is to prevent the murder and discover the identity of Scorpio.  This tape will self-destruct in five seconds.  Good luck, Jim.
