CAMBRIDGE COURSE
IT'S A LONG STORY
Part I
Judy Parker is 22. She is a medical student. Judy is intelligent and very pretty, with a good sense of humour. She is a nice woman. Her boy-friend's name is Sam Watson. He is 27. He works in a bank as assistant manager. He is good-looking, but he is not a very nice man. Judy loves Sam very much. Sam loves money, cars, good food, whiskey, travel and beautiful women.

Part 2
July is worried. She doesn’t know where Sam is.The bank manager doesn't know where Sam is either. He is very worried.
Sam is in Brazil, in a small town on the coast near Rio de Janeiro, with £ 50 000 of the bank money. He is sitting in a bar near the beach drinking a large martini and writing a letter to Judy.

Part 3
Rio. Tuesday.
Darling Judy,
Well, here I am in Brazil. It's very -warm here and the sea is nice for swimming. The women here are very beautiful and very, very friendly. But I miss you, Judy. Please, come and stay with me in Brazil. Can you take the 1325 flight from London to Rio on April the 14th? I'll meet you at the air¬port.
All my love,
Sam.

Part 4
Judy is at home. She lives in a small flat near the bank. It's not very nice. She is in a living- room drinking a cup of coffee and thinking. Judy's very worried, because she doesn't know what to do. She loves Sam, and she doesn’t want to tell the police where he is. But she doesn't want to go to Rio either. She wants a quiet life.
Judy goes to the window and looks out. There’s a police car in the street. Two big policemen are walking towards her house.

Part 5
JUDY: Hello. Is that Crockstone 43122? Dr. Wagner? Listen, Dr. Wagner. This is Judy. Yes, Judy Parker. Listen. I'm in very bad trouble. Can you help? Trouble with Sam and the bank and the police. I haven't got time to explain. Yes, OK. Please, come to my house at once with your car as fast as you can, it's really urgent. 23 Callton Road. Turn right at the station, and it's the second street on your left. Please, hurry. Oh, and come to the back door.

Part 6
Dr. Wagner and Judy are on their way to the airport in Dr. Wagner's car. There is another car behind them with a pretty blue lamp on top. Dr. Wagner accelerates and the police car disappears.
Dr. WAGNER: But what's the problem, Judy?
JUDY: I can't explain. It's too complicated.
Dr. WAGNER: I know what it is. It's that Sam. I don't like him at all. He's a very dishonest young man.
JUDY: Sam is my boy-friend and I love him. He has sensitive eyes and beautiful hands.

Part 7
JUDY: Single to Rio de Janeiro, please.
CLERK: First class or tourist?
JUDY: Oh, tourist, please.
Judy checks in and goes through passport control to the departure gate. On the plane she finds a seat by the window. A young man comes and sits down by her. Judy looks at him. He is tall and dark, about 25, and very well dressed. Judy is not interested in him. He has dark brown eyes, a straight nose, a wide humorous mouth and strong brown hands with long sensitive fingers. He is incredibly handsome. Judy looks out of the window.

Part 8
JASPER: Excuse me, would you like a drink?
JUDY: Oh, yes. Thank you very much. A whiskey, please.
The young man gave Judy her drink and smiled at her. He had an incredibly attractive smile. He really looked very nice. Calm, friendly and kind. "Perhaps he is a doctor", -she thought, "a surgeon with those strong sensitive hands. Or perhaps an artist. Or a musician". Yes, he looked like an artist. She looked at him again and smiled.
JASPER: What time is it, please?
JUDY: 2:35
JASPER: Thank you.
He smiled at her. She smiled back at him. He smiled again. He took a gun out of his pocket, stood up and walked to the front of the plane.

Part 9
JASPER: Good afternoon. This is your hijacker's speaking. We are now flying at 550 miles per hour at the height of 29000 feet. In approximately 1,5 hours we will be over the North of Scotland. I wish you a pleasant flight.

Judy's head was going round and round. First Sam, then the police and now the hijacker. When would it all end? Life was really much too complicated. She drank her whisky. It didn't make any difference. She looked out of the window. The sky was full of big dark clouds. So was her head. Some time later the plane started going down. The pilot's door opened and a hijacker came out still holding his gun. He walked up to her and smiled.
JASPER: You know, you really are extremely beautiful. Come on, put on your parachute.
Judy fainted.

Part 10
Judy opened her eyes. The sun was shining. The cool wind was blowing on her face. She felt very light and happy.
JUDY: Where am I?
JASPER: A hundred feet above Loch Ness. Can you swim?
Judy fainted again. When she opened her eyes, she was lying on the bank of the Loch with her head on her parachute.
JASPER: Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Jasper Me Donald.
JUDY: Why did you hijack the plane?
JASPER: It's my birthday. Well, let's go to my castle and find some dry clothes.

Part 11
It didn't take long to get to Jasper's castle. It was an enormous building, about half a mile from Loch Ness with tall towers, battlements and a moat and at least two hundred rooms.
JUDY: What a place!
JASPER: Well, it's not much, but it's home. Let me show you to your room. And I'll see if I can find you some of my sister's clothes.
Judy's room was about ten minutes walk from the main entrance. Up a lot of stairs and along a lot of corridors. It was beautiful. Decorated in light blue and lilac with some wonderful pieces of antique furniture. There was a splendid view of the Loch and the mountains.
JUDY: This is lovely. How many of you live here?
JASPER: Just my sister and I. And the ghost, of course. See you later.

Part 12
Judy had a bath and then put on some of Jasper's sister's clothes. They fitted her perfectly. She looked at herself in the mirror, smiled, frowned and went downstairs.
JASPER: Hello. Did I tell you how beautiful you are?
JUDY: Yes, you did.
JASPER: Fine. Let me show you around the castle before tea.
JUDY: But I don't want to stay for tea.
JASPER: This part of the castle was built in 1480.
JUDY: I want to go to Rio.
JASPER: This is a portrait of my ancestor Donald McDonald.
JUDY: I want to see my boy-friend Sa.
JASPER: He was a friend of King James VI.
JUDY: I love him.
JASPER: James VI
JUDY: No, you fool, my boy-friend Sam.
JASPER: your Sam Watson? You don't want to see him.
JUDY: Yes, I do.
JASPER: No, you don't. This is a portrait of my ancestor McDonald McDonald.
JUDY: How do you know Sam?
JASPER: He was a friend of king Robert the Bruce.
JUDY: Sam?
JASPER: no, you fool, McDonald. You don't want to see Sam. You want to stay here with me. I love you.
Out of the door came an old man with white hair and very strange clothes. He was carrying his head under his arm. He looked very like the portrait.
JUDY: Who's that?
JASPER: The ghost.
GHOST:You don't want to go and see Sam. You want to stay here with Jasper.

PART 13
Sam Watson was standing at the arrivals gate at Rio Airport holding a bunch of flowers. He was worried. Judy's plane was three hours late and nobody knew why. Sam walked over to the bar and had a drink. He walked back to the arrivals gate. No news. Back to the bar. Two hours and eight drinks later Judy's plane landed, and after another half an hour the passengers started coming out. Sam smiled and looked for Judy.After a time he stopped smiling. Finally, the last passenger came through. It wasn't Judy. Sam said a big bad word. What had happened? He went over to the information desk.
SAM: My name is Sam Watson. Have you got any messages for me?
CLERK: Yes, a telephone message from Scotland.
SAM: "Mr. Sam Watson. Rio Airport. Have a nice holiday. Don't come back. Love. Jasper McDonald."
Sam said another big bad word, tore up the paper, and gave the flowers to the stewardess.
SAM: What time is the next plane to London?
Behind Sam a tall beautiful girl was listening to his conversation. When she heard the word "London", she smiled.

PART 14
As the night plane took off, Sam closed his eyes. He loved travelling but he was always a little afraid of flying. He couldn't really understand how the plane stayed up in the air. Also he was worried about what would happen to him. Would there be detectives waiting for him at London airport? It was crazy to leave Brazil. In Brazil there was sun, freedom and beautiful women. He could live happily for years with his 50 000 pounds. In Britain there was rain, trouble, policemen and a strong chance of prison. But he had to see Judy. Judy was different, Judy was special. Sam smiled and opened his eyes. Next to him there was sitting a tall incredibly beautiful girl.
SAM: Hello. My name's Sam.
ISABEL: I know. My name's detective sergeant Honeybone.
Sam closed his eyes.

PART 15
When Judy woke up the next morning, the sun was shining, the birds were singing, and everything was beautiful. Her room was lovely and she felt fine. There was a knock on the door, and in walked the ghost carrying
