RADIO:
(Spanish) "This is Rebel Radio: Rebel troops of Column Four 'Jose Marti' took the town of Baire yesterday at 8:30 p.m. The enemy has retreated..."
EXT. CUBAN STREET - MORNING This street in Havana is like a Caribbean tourist city with no indication of the revolution in progress.
Michael walks along the street, alone, past the Cubans on their way to work; past the American ladies who have gotten up early for their shopping spree.
RADIO:
(Spanish) (continuing) ... An important military action is developing along a 35-kilometer stretch of the Central Highway.
Numerous enemy garrisons are left with two alternatives, surrender or annihilation... One full block away, Bussetta rides in the front seat of the dark Mercury, driving slowly, giving Michael his privacy, but never letting him out of Bussetta's sight.
CLOSE ON MICHAEL watching.
MICHAEL'S VIEW Shopkeepers happily luring the tourists into their shops in broken English. Havana is prosperous.
RADIO:
(continuing) ... Victories in war depend on a minimum on weapons and to a maximum on morale...
VIEW ON MICHAEL:
glances back to the dark car following him. In a moment, it pulls up to him, and he gets into the back seat.
EXT. AMERICAN MILITARY MISSION - VIEW ON MICHAEL - DAY standing by his car, looking through the cyclone fencing that borders this military training camp operated by the American Army near the city.
RADIO:
... War is not a simple question of rifles, bullets, guns and planes... CLOSER VIEW INTO THE CAMP EXT. HAVANA STREET - DAY A street singer, followed by a guitarist sings Jose Marti's words of "Guantanamera." It is solemn, as though it is a song of protest, a song of the revolution.
Nearby, in a restaurant, Michael has lunch with Fredo.
MICHAEL:
How is your wife, Fredo...your marriage?
FREDO:
(eating) You know her; drives me crazy, one minute she's a popsicle, the next she's all vinegar. Sometimes I think... I think - I should a married someone, like you did. To have kids, to have a family.
Michael turns, distracted for a moment at something the singer has sung.
MICHAEL:
"Yo soy un hombre sincero..."
I am a sincere man, From the land of the palms...
FREDO:
What's that?
MICHAEL:
The song. Are you sincere with me, Fredo?
FREDO:
Sincere. What are you talking about, of course I'm sincere with you, Mike.
MICHAEL:
Then I'm going to confide in you; trust you with something.
FREDO:
(Sicilian) Mike, are you crazy, I'm your brother.
MICHAEL:
Tonight we've been invited to a reception at the Presidential Palace; to bring in the New Year.
You and I will go in a special car that's being sent. They'll have cocktails... then dinner, and a reception with the President. When it's over, it will be suggested that you take Questadt and his friends from Washington to spend the night with some women. I'll go home alone in the car; and before I reach the hotel, I'll be assassinated.
FREDO:
...Who?
