- Person on Tape: [voice on tape] Good morning, Mr. Phelps. This man, Dr. Oswald Beck, has succeeded in developing a mutation of the bacteria which causes cerebrospinal meningitis. A spray of this mutant strain produces death within minutes, yet becomes harmless in a few hours, making it practical for our enemies to use as a battlefield weapon. Your mission, Jim, should you decide to accept it, is to destroy the bacteria culture and stop Beck. As always, should you or any of you IM Force be caught or killed, the Secretary will disavow any knowledge of your actions. This recording will self-destruct in five seconds. Good luck, Jim.
