- Person on Tape: [voice on tape] Good morning, Mr. Phelps. This is Joe Corvin, one time Syndicate killer and extortionist and now an expert in handling illegal monies. Through Corvin, tens of millions of underworld dollars have been funneled out of this country and into Swiss banks, from there to be returned as foreign investments in American business. So far, conventional law enforcement agencies have been unable to stop Corvin's operations. Your mission, Jim, should you decide to accept it, is to put Corvin out of business for good. This tape will self-destruct in five seconds. Good luck, Jim.

- Joe Corvin: You skimmed $150,000 off that last shipment!
- Anders: That's a lie!
- Joe Corvin: Is it? Huh? I got friends in Zurich told me you just made a deposit to your personal account of $150,000!
- Anders: Well, I, uh, I sold some property.
