In Cardiff, the plant manager of Yazawa Electronics named Shuji Takita was kidnapped in Sherwood Forest with a ransom of 25 million pounds. Shuji's wife Mrs. Takita reported the incident to Fumio Hisayama, the president of the United Kingdom division of Yazawa Electronics. Superintendent Costner informs Inspector Douglas of the incident. It is revealed that Keaton was sent by Lloyd's of London as a negotiator for the kidnapping. Keaton advises only Mrs. Takita to answer the kidnapper's phone calls in order to guarantee Shuji's safety. After Mrs. Takita learns that Shuji has been strangled in Milford Haven, Hisayama learns that Shuji quit his job on the day before the kidnapping. Mrs. Takita tells Keaton and Shuji's father Kozue Takita that Shuji was busy with his work even to the point of coming home late at night on his birthday. Douglas tells Keaton that an employee named Jack Carol was the lead suspect since he was on bad terms with Shuji. The kidnapper lowers the ransom to ten million pounds, directing Mrs. Takita to a telephone booth containing a photo of Shuji. Keaton shows the photo to Carol, showing the misleading image of Shuji having a severed finger. When the kidnapper agrees to lower the ransom to just under three million pounds, Mrs. Takita takes the ransom to the drop-off location. Mrs. Takita receives a phone call from Shuji at a pay phone, reassuring his safety. Costner and Douglas prepare to find and arrest the kidnapper. (Source: Wikipedia)
