The story

U.S. government agent Harry Hannan suffers a nervous breakdown after his wife Dorothy is killed, and spends five months in a sanitarium.

Paranoid that he is being targeted by his own agency, Harry visits his supervisor Eckart, who assures Harry that the agency has higher priorities.

He gives her some money and urges her to stay in a hotel, because he fears she will be accidentally targeted.
