Five days later in Paris,
Cvelyn and McKay go to the
lotel in which rooms have

ed to her own room by a lame
lorter, Evelyn finds Vaux,
'hief of the United States Se

lad come to doubt. Vaux ur
res her to give up her mission
Krause of the danger and tells
ler he loves her too well to

her. She tlilt 1 \ refuses to turn

at the hotel in Paris and Vaux
overhears the lame porter ad
dress him as “F-9" a noted
German secret agent. Vaux
overpowers “F-9” takes pos
session of his credentials and
goes to the chateau. With the
credentials he gains admission
and is taken to see McKay. He
changes clothes with McKay
and tells him to go for help,
and McKay leaves the chat

the lock on the doer of the
room which she is being held
in and overhears the Germans
