When the owner of an extreme right-wing weekly magazine, ''Intercom'', based in Geneva, dies, they buy the company which publishes it. They start sending the surprised editor 'articles', which consist of highly sensitive information about the weapons systems of the USA, USSR, Britain and NATO. Before the fourth 'article' has even been published the magazine's lawyer is contacted by a potential buyer. The two intelligence heads have correctly calculated that the security services of all the nations they're mentioning in their 'articles' will pay handsomely to close the magazine down. To the magazine lawyer's amazement, the buyer is prepared to pay $500,000. The sale is quickly carried through, the magazine closed down, and all its assets mysteriously removed. The intelligence heads divide their takings and start planning for a comfortable retirement.
