Unknown Broadcast | Four Classic OTR Thrillers of Poison, Trains, and Hidden Greed

Unknown Broadcast | Four Classic OTR Thrillers of Poison, Trains, and Hidden Greed
Unknown Broadcast slips into your Weekly Spooky feed with classic old-time radio horror stories, radio suspense, and vintage OTR mystery—the kind of tales that start with a simple temptation… and end with someone realizing they should’ve left well enough alone.
  • 💎 Leave Well Enough Alone — A marriage, a growing doubt, and a trail of jewelry that turns love into obsession… until the truth hits like a knife you never saw coming.
  • ☠️ The Diary of Doctor Pritchard — A doctor with a reputation… a chemist’s bottle… and a poison that doesn’t forgive. The kind of evil that smiles politely while it pours the dose.
  • 🚂 The 415 Express — A cold report, a hot trail, and a train heading out with more than passengers aboard… including the answer to missing money and a name you won’t forget.
  • 🪙 Glass Dime — A rare coin vanishes, a reward goes up, and suddenly everyone has a reason to lie. When something’s worth thousands, it can cost you everything.
Four stories… and every one of them proves the same rule: the moment you reach for more, something in the dark reaches back.

1
00:00:10.800 --> 00:00:16.600
Ah, my dear, so good to see you again. Oh

2
00:00:16.640 --> 00:00:24.160
what's that? Well, perhaps we'll just have to wait and see. Now,

3
00:00:24.199 --> 00:00:27.879
come on, come on, sit down and relax. I know

4
00:00:28.079 --> 00:00:33.679
it's been so very cold out there. But here by

5
00:00:33.719 --> 00:00:38.439
the fire with a hot cup of tea, you'll be

6
00:00:38.719 --> 00:00:45.520
just fine. What's that Well, it is still steeping, but

7
00:00:46.399 --> 00:00:50.280
a sip or two now to warm up couldn't hurt,

8
00:00:51.079 --> 00:00:58.679
not at all. Sometimes it feels like everyone's in a

9
00:00:58.759 --> 00:01:04.359
hurry and no one will leave well enough.

10
00:01:05.120 --> 00:01:35.359
Alone BS Radio Mystery Theater Presents, come in. Welcome. I'm e. G. Marshall. Diamonds,

11
00:01:35.400 --> 00:01:40.040
they say, are forever, and are therefore the most lasting

12
00:01:40.120 --> 00:01:43.799
of all declarations of love. However, being human, it is

13
00:01:43.879 --> 00:01:49.200
unfortunately true that our sentiments, particularly our amorous ones, are

14
00:01:49.239 --> 00:01:53.680
frequently subject to change without notice. Therefore, what does a

15
00:01:53.719 --> 00:01:56.920
poor diamond do when its natural brilliance is no longer

16
00:01:56.959 --> 00:01:59.879
equaled by the flame of the love that inspired its purchase.

17
00:02:01.000 --> 00:02:02.840
It all depends on the diamond.

18
00:02:03.760 --> 00:02:08.439
Henri respects your opinion, Monsieur de Montesson. Because of you,

19
00:02:09.120 --> 00:02:10.759
he broke his engagement to me.

20
00:02:11.680 --> 00:02:14.280
It's not for me to decide these things.

21
00:02:14.520 --> 00:02:17.039
I came up here to get you a blessing, and

22
00:02:17.159 --> 00:02:18.639
I won't leave without it.

23
00:02:18.680 --> 00:02:21.199
For what makes you think that I would be willing.

24
00:02:21.639 --> 00:02:25.879
Monsieur de Montesson, I don't think you will have the

25
00:02:26.039 --> 00:02:27.479
heart to refuse me.

26
00:02:36.560 --> 00:02:40.840
Our mystery drama Leave Well Enough Alone, was written especially

27
00:02:40.879 --> 00:02:45.120
for the Mystery Theater by Sam Dan and stars John Beale.

28
00:02:46.080 --> 00:03:01.759
I'll be back shortly with that one on. The great

29
00:03:01.840 --> 00:03:06.240
French writer Gui de Moopisson was intrigued by jewelry. He

30
00:03:06.319 --> 00:03:09.280
felt that love for precious stones ranked among the highest

31
00:03:09.319 --> 00:03:13.599
of all human vanities, and to him, human vanity was

32
00:03:13.599 --> 00:03:17.759
the very staff of his creative life. Indeed, De Moopisson's

33
00:03:17.800 --> 00:03:21.360
The Necklace is probably the greatest short story ever written.

34
00:03:22.039 --> 00:03:25.080
Not quite so well known as another demopisontale that deals

35
00:03:25.080 --> 00:03:28.800
with valuable gems, and just as intriguing as the story

36
00:03:28.840 --> 00:03:32.240
itself is de Mompison's account of how he came to

37
00:03:32.280 --> 00:03:39.879
write it. That year, I was living at eighty one

38
00:03:40.000 --> 00:03:44.240
Rue des Caprissine. My second floor apartment faced the rear.

39
00:03:45.439 --> 00:03:50.000
Monsieur Ony Lantin occupied the rooms to the front. He

40
00:03:50.039 --> 00:03:54.120
was a snug little man who held a snug little

41
00:03:54.120 --> 00:03:58.800
clerkship from some snug little government bureau and he enjoyed

42
00:03:58.879 --> 00:04:02.400
us snug little income. He was always most polite and

43
00:04:02.479 --> 00:04:05.560
pleasant every time we would meet. Aha, good morning, Monsieur

44
00:04:05.599 --> 00:04:09.280
de Moss, Good morning, Monsieur Lort. And how goes the

45
00:04:09.400 --> 00:04:14.479
art of writing today? Slowly? Ha ha? May I ask

46
00:04:14.520 --> 00:04:18.399
a question, by all means you writing, fellows, where do

47
00:04:18.439 --> 00:04:23.879
you get your ideas from life? Life? The life that

48
00:04:24.079 --> 00:04:29.120
flows ceaselessly all about us. Oh, I look at the

49
00:04:29.199 --> 00:04:31.600
life that flows all about me, and I don't get

50
00:04:31.639 --> 00:04:35.600
any ideas at all. Well, perhaps it's because I'm not

51
00:04:35.639 --> 00:04:39.959
a writer, but also because I'm surrounded by rather quite

52
00:04:40.120 --> 00:04:44.240
ordinary people. All of us are surrounded by rather quite

53
00:04:44.439 --> 00:04:49.360
ordinary people. Indeed, rather ordinary people may provide.

54
00:04:49.000 --> 00:04:51.519
The greatest inspiration of all. Is that a fact?

55
00:04:52.480 --> 00:04:56.000
You mean that a quite ordinary person such as myself

56
00:04:56.399 --> 00:05:01.160
could provide you with an inspiration for a story? That's possible?

57
00:05:05.079 --> 00:05:08.000
And so it would go. He would read my stories

58
00:05:08.000 --> 00:05:12.160
when they appeared, and compliment me profusely, especially when he

59
00:05:12.199 --> 00:05:16.439
didn't understand them. But then one day I noticed that

60
00:05:16.480 --> 00:05:18.839
he had begun to be somewhat nervous in my presence.

61
00:05:19.439 --> 00:05:21.399
He no longer went out of his way to stop

62
00:05:21.439 --> 00:05:24.279
for a chat. I wondered, if perhaps I had offended

63
00:05:24.319 --> 00:05:27.839
him in some way when he suddenly insisted on treating

64
00:05:27.839 --> 00:05:29.120
me to a glass of wine at.

65
00:05:29.000 --> 00:05:30.319
The establishment on the street.

66
00:05:31.920 --> 00:05:37.000
Monsieur de Montesson, May I ask you a question, certainly,

67
00:05:37.040 --> 00:05:42.480
Monsieur Walter, what do you think of me? Do I

68
00:05:42.480 --> 00:05:47.600
impress you as a somewhat ridiculous person? Oh? No, how

69
00:05:47.600 --> 00:05:50.680
would you characterize me? That is, assume me you were

70
00:05:50.720 --> 00:05:53.600
to put me in a story. Well, I would say

71
00:05:53.639 --> 00:06:00.759
that you are a most industrious sort of man, intelligent, friendly, sophisticated, pleasant.

72
00:06:02.319 --> 00:06:05.680
I'm sure you wonder why I'm asking these questions. Yes,

73
00:06:07.199 --> 00:06:13.759
I'm contemplating a rather radical step, radical Silanta or radical

74
00:06:13.800 --> 00:06:14.399
that is for me.

75
00:06:14.600 --> 00:06:16.279
Ah, I.

76
00:06:17.839 --> 00:06:20.160
I've decided to get married for.

77
00:06:20.360 --> 00:06:22.040
Her, congratulations.

78
00:06:22.480 --> 00:06:26.199
I've decided that a man does not live by bread alone.

79
00:06:27.000 --> 00:06:30.160
Very well put so that's in the Bible. I know

80
00:06:30.480 --> 00:06:37.360
Deuteronomy eight three, also Matthew four four. But I've been

81
00:06:37.399 --> 00:06:42.279
doing it doing hall living by bread alone, or or

82
00:06:42.319 --> 00:06:46.079
I should say four bread alone, Monsieur de Montason. I

83
00:06:46.199 --> 00:06:49.759
have spent my life working for bread of wa all,

84
00:06:50.279 --> 00:06:54.000
but I haven't done anything else all day. I'm at

85
00:06:54.040 --> 00:06:57.439
the office. Do you know what I do there? I

86
00:06:57.680 --> 00:07:02.120
keep a record of all the ropes, chains and anchors

87
00:07:02.680 --> 00:07:05.439
that are required for the naval basic to long all

88
00:07:05.439 --> 00:07:10.639
that seems to be very responsible, important, certainly un necessary activity.

89
00:07:11.199 --> 00:07:14.160
Missieur de Mouss sured he as a writer, you should

90
00:07:14.160 --> 00:07:19.000
appreciate the poetic justice of what I've just said. In

91
00:07:19.079 --> 00:07:24.120
what manner I deal with ropes, chains and anchors. And

92
00:07:24.160 --> 00:07:29.079
these are all commodities whose function is to confine, to

93
00:07:29.199 --> 00:07:33.879
hold back, restrict har It seems that all my life

94
00:07:33.920 --> 00:07:37.920
I've been restricted to my desk at the office and

95
00:07:38.000 --> 00:07:43.199
my easy chair at home. To be alone is to

96
00:07:43.279 --> 00:07:46.800
be half alive. Just think of what it means to

97
00:07:46.839 --> 00:07:49.240
have a pretty wife who waits for you at home,

98
00:07:49.680 --> 00:07:52.399
who greet you with warm kisses and hot.

99
00:07:52.240 --> 00:07:53.920
Soup and sounds delicious.

100
00:07:54.160 --> 00:07:58.079
Ah, to share one's life. I wish you the best

101
00:07:58.079 --> 00:08:01.560
of fortune in this enterprisements you want, no doubt you've

102
00:08:01.560 --> 00:08:05.439
already decided on the fortunate young lady. No, as yet

103
00:08:05.480 --> 00:08:08.360
I don't know who she is, but I've made up

104
00:08:08.399 --> 00:08:12.240
my mind to look. I see. I shall now devote

105
00:08:12.279 --> 00:08:16.480
my energies to the problem, and I know I shall

106
00:08:16.519 --> 00:08:20.240
succeed in my quest. After all, seek and you shall

107
00:08:20.279 --> 00:08:24.639
find that's very crisply, stated Monsieur Letta. Of course, it's

108
00:08:24.639 --> 00:08:32.360
from the Bible. The little man was so sincere, so ernest,

109
00:08:32.960 --> 00:08:35.639
his round, honest face shown with such.

110
00:08:35.559 --> 00:08:38.639
Goodwill, one was forced to take him seriously.

111
00:08:39.480 --> 00:08:41.720
And every time we would encounter each other in the

112
00:08:41.799 --> 00:08:44.960
hallway on the street, he would always advise me of

113
00:08:45.000 --> 00:08:49.039
his progress, or more accurately, his lack of progress. No,

114
00:08:49.320 --> 00:08:51.240
Monsieur de Monfassan, she eludes me.

115
00:08:51.360 --> 00:08:53.240
Still one would imagine.

116
00:08:53.279 --> 00:08:58.919
There's no shortage of eligible ladies eligible, Yes, special, No,

117
00:09:00.080 --> 00:09:02.879
And in what way must she be special? In a

118
00:09:03.000 --> 00:09:06.320
way that she'll make itself apparent the moment I lay

119
00:09:06.360 --> 00:09:11.639
eyes upon her, I look for her everywhere all the time.

120
00:09:13.000 --> 00:09:17.080
But so far, don't lose courage, Monsieur Lantin. One day,

121
00:09:17.240 --> 00:09:19.360
out of a clear blue sky, when you.

122
00:09:19.399 --> 00:09:25.879
Least expect it, there she will be. And so it

123
00:09:25.919 --> 00:09:26.320
would go.

124
00:09:27.440 --> 00:09:32.440
Weeks months went by, and still Monsieur Lantin remained a bachelor.

125
00:09:33.519 --> 00:09:35.440
Now you mustn't think that I had nothing to do

126
00:09:35.519 --> 00:09:38.840
but worry about his marital problems, or rather the lack

127
00:09:38.879 --> 00:09:42.600
of them. But I was impressed by his very deep feelings.

128
00:09:43.559 --> 00:09:47.039
One day I encounted Monsieur Lantin in the little park

129
00:09:47.279 --> 00:09:52.200
near our lodgings. Monsieur de Montpissor. I'm very much afraid

130
00:09:52.240 --> 00:09:58.120
of you. What's this afraid of me? Why you see

131
00:09:58.720 --> 00:10:02.559
I did find her? Well, this calls for a celebration.

132
00:10:03.840 --> 00:10:06.000
I don't know how to begin this. The best place

133
00:10:06.039 --> 00:10:08.080
to begin any story is at the beginning.

134
00:10:08.159 --> 00:10:08.840
Go forward.

135
00:10:10.200 --> 00:10:15.200
How old do you think I am? Oh, to be honest, oh,

136
00:10:16.080 --> 00:10:21.480
forty No, I shall hold nothing back. I'm forty five,

137
00:10:21.840 --> 00:10:25.240
but a most youthful and vigorous looking forty five. Do

138
00:10:25.240 --> 00:10:29.679
you really think so? Of course, Well, that really doesn't

139
00:10:29.679 --> 00:10:31.120
have much to do with it.

140
00:10:35.399 --> 00:10:37.440
Less a lovely name.

141
00:10:38.639 --> 00:10:45.279
Celeste is eighteen. Oh yes, I knew you would say. Oh,

142
00:10:45.480 --> 00:10:48.879
I meant nothing by it. It was merely well, these

143
00:10:49.639 --> 00:10:53.600
disparities in age are not uncommon. Why did you say disparities?

144
00:10:53.879 --> 00:10:58.480
Because the word describes a difference, then why didn't you

145
00:10:58.559 --> 00:11:05.240
say difference? Disparity implies inequality or even incongruity. As a writer,

146
00:11:05.480 --> 00:11:08.279
surely you must be aware of that. Please forgive me,

147
00:11:08.919 --> 00:11:12.039
But you've made your point. What point is this? It's

148
00:11:12.120 --> 00:11:15.600
the point you make In everything you write. You always

149
00:11:15.639 --> 00:11:20.279
express a cynical attitude toward most human behavior. I admit

150
00:11:20.399 --> 00:11:24.399
to being a cynic, Monsieur Lonton, but that's only because

151
00:11:25.039 --> 00:11:28.759
I'm a frustrated romantic. All your stories have a kind

152
00:11:28.759 --> 00:11:33.919
of sardonic ending. No, say, rather that they try for

153
00:11:34.039 --> 00:11:38.840
a human ending. You're laughing at me. No, Oh, what

154
00:11:38.919 --> 00:11:43.799
a fool I must be. She's young enough to be

155
00:11:43.919 --> 00:11:48.720
my daughter. Come now, Monsieurlanta, you accuse me unfairly. You

156
00:11:48.799 --> 00:11:53.840
say to yourself, why the old goat? What dangerous delusion

157
00:11:53.919 --> 00:11:57.519
does he permit himself? You're saying to yourself, why if

158
00:11:57.519 --> 00:11:59.639
he must marry it all, why why doesn't it you

159
00:11:59.840 --> 00:12:07.240
so plump widow or all right spinster nearer his own age. Well, well,

160
00:12:07.960 --> 00:12:10.080
since you have put the question into my mouth, you

161
00:12:10.159 --> 00:12:13.320
might as well place the answer there too. It's because

162
00:12:13.399 --> 00:12:17.919
I'm not a stick, not a stone. I have life

163
00:12:18.039 --> 00:12:22.039
in me. I want youth, I want beauty, I want

164
00:12:22.159 --> 00:12:27.799
freshness and romance. I want everything I missed. Then, by

165
00:12:27.840 --> 00:12:29.200
all means.

166
00:12:28.960 --> 00:12:29.399
Take it.

167
00:12:30.240 --> 00:12:35.039
Yes, I could settle for an older woman. That would

168
00:12:35.120 --> 00:12:38.399
be the safe way to do it. But I'm willing

169
00:12:38.480 --> 00:12:42.559
to take the chance, the chance that you tire of

170
00:12:42.600 --> 00:12:46.519
me and then laugh at me and finally betray me.

171
00:12:47.159 --> 00:12:49.720
That's what happens in all marriages like this one, not

172
00:12:50.039 --> 00:12:55.639
all marriages, in all the ones you write about. Mister Lanton,

173
00:12:56.440 --> 00:13:01.759
I cannot accept the responsibility for influencing the most important decision.

174
00:13:01.320 --> 00:13:02.000
Of your life.

175
00:13:02.679 --> 00:13:05.559
Just talking to you has made it clear to me

176
00:13:06.440 --> 00:13:10.919
I cannot marry Celeste. I am only a writer of fiction.

177
00:13:11.679 --> 00:13:15.600
Actually I am. I'm not better qualified to advise no.

178
00:13:15.600 --> 00:13:19.840
No to marry Celeste. I see it now would be

179
00:13:20.000 --> 00:13:23.399
to go against my true nature. Are you sure you

180
00:13:23.639 --> 00:13:27.480
know what your true nature is? No, it would be

181
00:13:27.519 --> 00:13:36.440
better for both of us. I shall break the engagement. Suddenly,

182
00:13:36.679 --> 00:13:40.360
here I was the villain of the peace. But perhaps

183
00:13:40.399 --> 00:13:44.840
it was for the best, and so I thought this

184
00:13:45.039 --> 00:13:48.639
was the end of the matter. But one afternoon there

185
00:13:48.679 --> 00:13:51.960
was a lock at my door. Standing at the threshold

186
00:13:52.120 --> 00:13:57.120
was a tall, dark, slender young lady. She had long,

187
00:13:57.440 --> 00:14:02.000
lustrous black hair, the face of such radiant beauty that

188
00:14:02.879 --> 00:14:07.399
at first lips I almost blinked my eyes. She smiled

189
00:14:07.440 --> 00:14:09.840
at me, a dazzling smile.

190
00:14:10.559 --> 00:14:12.639
You are Monsieur de beau passant.

191
00:14:13.559 --> 00:14:15.279
Yes, may I come in?

192
00:14:16.039 --> 00:14:20.960
I am Celeste Laurier celeuslier Celeste.

193
00:14:21.320 --> 00:14:23.960
Yes, of course you may come in.

194
00:14:24.080 --> 00:14:30.039
Mademoiselle, thank you. However, aren't you afraid that you might

195
00:14:30.080 --> 00:14:31.840
be compromised? Oh?

196
00:14:31.960 --> 00:14:35.440
No, monsieur, you are, after all a gentleman.

197
00:14:35.919 --> 00:14:37.840
I don't consider myself a gentleman.

198
00:14:37.840 --> 00:14:39.679
Well, you have nothing to say about it.

199
00:14:41.399 --> 00:14:44.279
Your two and two w bb M in Chicago.

200
00:14:45.759 --> 00:14:49.879
Gentlemen are born. They cannot change their essential natures.

201
00:14:50.480 --> 00:14:52.879
I'm sure you haven't come here to talk about me.

202
00:14:53.200 --> 00:14:57.600
Ah, but I have why because I wish to marry

203
00:14:57.919 --> 00:14:59.320
Monsieur Henri Lante.

204
00:15:00.360 --> 00:15:01.639
And what have I to do with it?

205
00:15:01.919 --> 00:15:02.519
Everything?

206
00:15:03.320 --> 00:15:04.720
I am afraid you make a mistake.

207
00:15:04.960 --> 00:15:09.679
No, Henre worships you. No, but to him you are

208
00:15:09.720 --> 00:15:13.919
the font of all wisdom. He broke our engagement because

209
00:15:13.919 --> 00:15:15.399
you disapproved.

210
00:15:15.759 --> 00:15:20.120
I assure you, Mademoiselle, I did not disparage the idea.

211
00:15:20.559 --> 00:15:25.799
Neither did you indorse it. However, let us consider because

212
00:15:25.840 --> 00:15:29.600
of you he ended the engagement, and because of you

213
00:15:29.919 --> 00:15:30.919
he can renew it.

214
00:15:31.720 --> 00:15:33.759
Because of me, how.

215
00:15:33.840 --> 00:15:36.559
All you need do is give the idea your blessing.

216
00:15:37.240 --> 00:15:39.159
But Mademoiselle, it is not for me.

217
00:15:40.120 --> 00:15:43.440
I came up here with every intention of receiving your blessing.

218
00:15:44.240 --> 00:15:47.440
I shall not depart empty handed, For what makes you

219
00:15:47.600 --> 00:15:52.000
believe that, I, Monsieur de Montesson. I don't think you

220
00:15:52.039 --> 00:15:54.679
will have the heart to refuse me.

221
00:16:01.039 --> 00:16:04.000
I tell you this. If she turned that dazzling smile

222
00:16:04.039 --> 00:16:06.639
at me, I'm not sure I would have the heart

223
00:16:06.679 --> 00:16:09.840
to refuse her either. She sounds like a young lady

224
00:16:09.840 --> 00:16:12.600
who usually guess what she wants. But this time, of course,

225
00:16:12.840 --> 00:16:16.279
her adversary is a great guidimoca song. But what does

226
00:16:16.279 --> 00:16:19.679
that have to do with anything? Aren't writers just as

227
00:16:19.720 --> 00:16:23.080
easily seduced as anyone else. I'll be back soon with

228
00:16:23.120 --> 00:16:38.600
that too. Will you love me in December as you

229
00:16:38.679 --> 00:16:41.960
do in May? This sentiment is part of a popular

230
00:16:42.000 --> 00:16:45.039
song written by, of all people, a former mayor of

231
00:16:45.120 --> 00:16:48.120
New York City. But what if we have May and

232
00:16:48.240 --> 00:16:52.320
December to begin with May and December. On the face

233
00:16:52.360 --> 00:16:55.799
of it, this does not sound like a promising couple. However,

234
00:16:56.320 --> 00:16:58.440
marriages are said to be made in heaven.

235
00:16:59.399 --> 00:17:01.159
You have for my blessing?

236
00:17:01.480 --> 00:17:01.799
Yes?

237
00:17:02.600 --> 00:17:04.839
And why should I give this affair my blessing?

238
00:17:05.160 --> 00:17:10.920
Why not? Very well? I know he told me the

239
00:17:11.000 --> 00:17:16.680
disparity in our ages disparity a rather cutting word.

240
00:17:16.960 --> 00:17:18.839
Yours no tears.

241
00:17:19.839 --> 00:17:21.440
I will be a good wife to him.

242
00:17:22.240 --> 00:17:23.119
Do you love him.

243
00:17:23.720 --> 00:17:24.599
Is that important?

244
00:17:25.119 --> 00:17:27.319
It should be the foundation of all marriages.

245
00:17:27.799 --> 00:17:33.920
Some marriages, perhaps, but not all. Besides, he has no

246
00:17:34.039 --> 00:17:36.440
right to expect love from a girl of eighteen.

247
00:17:37.319 --> 00:17:37.720
Why not?

248
00:17:38.240 --> 00:17:42.880
Who isn't that rather presumptuous for a man of fifty fifty?

249
00:17:43.359 --> 00:17:44.480
Well that surprises you?

250
00:17:45.160 --> 00:17:48.359
No, that result nothing surprises me anymore.

251
00:17:49.079 --> 00:17:53.519
Well, the best he can hope for is respect, loyalty,

252
00:17:54.559 --> 00:17:59.680
admiration and warmth. These I am prepared to give him.

253
00:18:00.480 --> 00:18:03.359
And who is to say that the thumb total of

254
00:18:03.440 --> 00:18:05.680
all these do not add up to love?

255
00:18:07.519 --> 00:18:11.160
Well, why, mademoiselle, are you prepared to do so?

256
00:18:11.920 --> 00:18:14.200
Because he shall save me?

257
00:18:15.640 --> 00:18:19.680
I don't understand from what a young woman of your

258
00:18:20.039 --> 00:18:24.839
most spectacular attributes, I should think thousands of men would

259
00:18:24.920 --> 00:18:29.599
beat your feet in a word, why settle for all?

260
00:18:29.599 --> 00:18:30.519
Real monter?

261
00:18:31.000 --> 00:18:34.000
Oh, if I were a character in one of your stories,

262
00:18:34.359 --> 00:18:38.319
how well you would understand me. My father was a

263
00:18:38.400 --> 00:18:42.119
country physician. He had a heart for all the world.

264
00:18:42.960 --> 00:18:48.279
He took his fees and potatoes and pumpkins. He died penniless.

265
00:18:48.720 --> 00:18:50.359
I have no dowry.

266
00:18:50.079 --> 00:18:53.440
Worth these days. That's no longer the impediment it used to.

267
00:18:53.359 --> 00:18:56.160
Be for my poor mother has not been swamped with

268
00:18:56.240 --> 00:19:01.680
offers for my hand, setting love aside. The sensible people

269
00:19:02.039 --> 00:19:03.799
marry for practical reasons.

270
00:19:04.160 --> 00:19:08.400
But once again, why all reelant has the truth?

271
00:19:08.480 --> 00:19:12.359
Monsieur, he is the only one who has ever asked me.

272
00:19:14.119 --> 00:19:16.440
I find that impossible to believe, for I.

273
00:19:16.400 --> 00:19:19.960
Have received offers from men of wealth and position, but

274
00:19:20.119 --> 00:19:25.920
not authors of marriage. You understand, and so, monsieur, I

275
00:19:26.039 --> 00:19:33.200
consider Henri. He is honest, decent, sincere, He is moderately secure.

276
00:19:34.160 --> 00:19:35.160
He will adore me.

277
00:19:36.559 --> 00:19:39.359
You are a most remarkable young woman.

278
00:19:40.599 --> 00:19:45.079
A woman requires a man's protection. I will make him happy,

279
00:19:45.839 --> 00:19:46.480
and why not?

280
00:19:47.359 --> 00:19:51.720
He shall have what he wants, and you, mademoiselle, shall

281
00:19:51.720 --> 00:19:52.839
you have what you want?

282
00:19:53.440 --> 00:19:55.720
I shall have what I need?

283
00:19:55.960 --> 00:19:57.680
And shall you be faithful to him?

284
00:19:58.519 --> 00:20:02.680
No one, monsieur, shall ever catch me being false to

285
00:20:02.799 --> 00:20:03.400
my marriage.

286
00:20:03.480 --> 00:20:08.440
Vow? What can I say? It seems this marriage was

287
00:20:08.480 --> 00:20:16.440
made in heaven. I gave the marriage my blessing. It

288
00:20:16.559 --> 00:20:20.079
was easy. He put up a show of resistance, but

289
00:20:20.160 --> 00:20:22.720
at heart he was only too willing to be convinced.

290
00:20:23.119 --> 00:20:26.480
What can she see at me? I'm forty six years

291
00:20:26.519 --> 00:20:26.960
of age.

292
00:20:27.279 --> 00:20:29.160
Have you ever looked in the mirror recently?

293
00:20:29.640 --> 00:20:32.079
Have you ever seen a more manly face, a face

294
00:20:32.119 --> 00:20:34.400
of such wisdom, virtue, honesty.

295
00:20:34.559 --> 00:20:37.880
Please, mister de mops high mean it. I have seen

296
00:20:37.920 --> 00:20:38.400
this girl.

297
00:20:38.839 --> 00:20:45.960
You have queer, how made discreet inquiries. I have contacts,

298
00:20:46.079 --> 00:20:49.799
And she is an angel. She is the perfect type

299
00:20:49.839 --> 00:20:54.440
of virtuous woman whom every sensible man dreams of winning.

300
00:20:55.119 --> 00:21:05.960
And you have won her. Claim your prize. They were

301
00:21:06.039 --> 00:21:11.920
married shortly after. He was unspeakably happy. True he was

302
00:21:11.960 --> 00:21:16.160
only a government clerk, but she governed the household so cleverly,

303
00:21:16.200 --> 00:21:20.480
so economically, that they seemed to live in luxury. She

304
00:21:20.799 --> 00:21:25.519
lavished the most delicate attention on him. She was so sweet,

305
00:21:26.079 --> 00:21:30.519
so loving, that I began to fear for my own sanity.

306
00:21:31.680 --> 00:21:36.240
And thus a few years passed. One evening I knocked

307
00:21:36.240 --> 00:21:39.960
on the door, Ah, visit of officer, I.

308
00:21:40.000 --> 00:21:41.960
Come in, please, come in, Thank you.

309
00:21:42.839 --> 00:21:45.839
I came by to see if and perhaps I could

310
00:21:45.839 --> 00:21:49.039
trouble you for some sugar. Oh but of course, my

311
00:21:49.160 --> 00:21:52.359
cleaning woman generally forgets to see these things. Huh, that

312
00:21:52.680 --> 00:21:56.400
is why a man should have a wife. Perhaps, Ah,

313
00:21:56.680 --> 00:22:01.000
how beautifully the place is furnished. Ha ha. Woman's touch,

314
00:22:01.119 --> 00:22:05.880
my friend, and even more than touch, her inborn understanding

315
00:22:05.960 --> 00:22:07.480
of how to run the household.

316
00:22:07.640 --> 00:22:08.640
What a manager?

317
00:22:09.000 --> 00:22:12.720
And how is Madame Walter? Oh, she would be so

318
00:22:12.759 --> 00:22:17.160
sorry she missed you. She's at the opera. Oh, she

319
00:22:17.359 --> 00:22:21.480
has this weakness for the opera. She goes constantly, And

320
00:22:21.599 --> 00:22:23.720
you don't go with it? Who I did at first?

321
00:22:23.799 --> 00:22:28.200
But I get so dreadfully bored I fall for us

322
00:22:28.279 --> 00:22:33.359
to sleep, So so she goes along. Oh no, no, no,

323
00:22:33.519 --> 00:22:37.720
she has many girlfriends. Ah, one cannot begrudge her this

324
00:22:37.759 --> 00:22:42.920
little amusement. Of course, I can understand her love for

325
00:22:42.960 --> 00:22:47.759
the opera, but I cannot understand the other thing, or

326
00:22:47.839 --> 00:22:54.359
other things. The jewels. Jewels, Oh, they're not really jewels. Actually,

327
00:22:54.880 --> 00:22:59.440
they're just imitations, you know, rhinestones and fake pearls, and

328
00:22:59.480 --> 00:23:03.680
paste diamond's imitation, gold and the like. She loves to

329
00:23:03.759 --> 00:23:07.000
adore herself in those things, sir, What harm is there

330
00:23:07.000 --> 00:23:10.240
in that? None? I suppose, then why do you object?

331
00:23:10.960 --> 00:23:15.240
I don't know, Yes, I do. It all creates a

332
00:23:15.400 --> 00:23:20.720
false note. She's such a genuine, sincere person. I can't

333
00:23:20.799 --> 00:23:24.319
understand why she should be fascinated by these cheap imitations.

334
00:23:24.440 --> 00:23:28.240
Perhaps you forget something, yes, wait, you look at her.

335
00:23:29.039 --> 00:23:33.799
She's so womanly, so wise. She runs your home so efficiently.

336
00:23:34.440 --> 00:23:38.160
She makes you so comfortable, so happy, that you don't

337
00:23:38.200 --> 00:23:42.960
really stop to think that she's only a girl. After all,

338
00:23:43.039 --> 00:23:47.599
she's hardly twenty. Yes, that's true. I suppose, poor child.

339
00:23:48.640 --> 00:23:51.720
Perhaps I'm too hard on her or My advice to

340
00:23:51.799 --> 00:23:55.920
you as a friend, Monsieur Lontari, is to let well

341
00:23:56.079 --> 00:23:57.160
enough her older.

342
00:23:59.039 --> 00:24:02.480
Ah read, my darling, and Monsieur.

343
00:24:02.200 --> 00:24:05.359
De Moncison, good evening, my dad, Marta.

344
00:24:05.680 --> 00:24:07.400
I thought you'd gone to the open.

345
00:24:08.160 --> 00:24:11.880
I left early. I think I'm catching a cold. Oh,

346
00:24:12.000 --> 00:24:13.640
we must get you to bed at once.

347
00:24:13.960 --> 00:24:17.640
I haven't caught it yet, Oh, Imri, darling, we must

348
00:24:17.680 --> 00:24:20.160
offer Monsieur de Monpesson some refreshment.

349
00:24:20.960 --> 00:24:24.519
Yes, yes, of course you are angry. I'm not angry.

350
00:24:24.880 --> 00:24:27.759
It's no use I can tell when my darling Henri

351
00:24:28.000 --> 00:24:29.200
is Displease.

352
00:24:28.960 --> 00:24:31.680
My dear, I am not in the least bit.

353
00:24:32.079 --> 00:24:36.240
Then you refuse to tell me, well, look at you

354
00:24:36.359 --> 00:24:38.119
all that cheap jewelry.

355
00:24:38.480 --> 00:24:41.759
But I love jewelry, and I'm so fond of these

356
00:24:42.319 --> 00:24:45.359
little bobbles. It's my only weakness.

357
00:24:45.519 --> 00:24:47.799
But my dear sir, LESTI please.

358
00:24:48.200 --> 00:24:49.400
Don't be cross with me.

359
00:24:53.279 --> 00:24:56.599
She gave him a look of such tenderness, and he

360
00:24:56.680 --> 00:24:59.680
returned it with a look of such love and longing.

361
00:25:00.319 --> 00:25:03.000
But I sensed immediately this was a scene that called

362
00:25:03.039 --> 00:25:06.880
for two people, not three. I mumbled an excuse and

363
00:25:06.920 --> 00:25:10.759
took my leave. A few evenings later there was a

364
00:25:10.799 --> 00:25:15.039
knock on my own door. Monsieur de Montaison. Are you

365
00:25:15.160 --> 00:25:17.359
engaged this evening? No?

366
00:25:17.680 --> 00:25:18.039
Come in?

367
00:25:19.000 --> 00:25:23.000
I wonder, my good sir, could you accompany me to

368
00:25:23.079 --> 00:25:23.599
the opera?

369
00:25:24.279 --> 00:25:24.880
The opera?

370
00:25:25.519 --> 00:25:28.000
I thought you found it a place for sleep. I'll

371
00:25:28.039 --> 00:25:32.559
confess I need the services of a friend. Who else

372
00:25:32.680 --> 00:25:37.720
can I ask? But you said, what's the trouble? Read

373
00:25:37.759 --> 00:25:44.559
this note? CONTI only long time. I'm sure your wife

374
00:25:44.960 --> 00:25:48.240
tells you she goes to the opera with a lady friend.

375
00:25:49.200 --> 00:25:53.200
But this evening you will see her there with her lover,

376
00:25:54.240 --> 00:25:59.759
a handsome cavalry officer. And you believe this note? What

377
00:26:00.079 --> 00:26:02.960
can I say? You can say that you have every

378
00:26:03.160 --> 00:26:04.920
confidence in your wife's.

379
00:26:04.480 --> 00:26:08.240
Loyalty and faithful I do, I do, but bearess.

380
00:26:09.680 --> 00:26:13.680
I'm so frightened of what a scerulous message from some

381
00:26:13.920 --> 00:26:17.519
evil minded person who hasn't the courage to sign his

382
00:26:17.720 --> 00:26:20.440
or her name. What would you advise me to do?

383
00:26:20.640 --> 00:26:24.079
Tear it up and forget it. I love her so much,

384
00:26:24.119 --> 00:26:27.920
and I'm so afraid your long t I advise you

385
00:26:28.079 --> 00:26:32.720
to leave well Enough alone. Someone is jealous of your happiness.

386
00:26:32.759 --> 00:26:33.559
I must know.

387
00:26:33.839 --> 00:26:37.599
Don't you know? Now? Don't you know in your own

388
00:26:37.680 --> 00:26:42.720
heart that she's innocent? Are you unable to answer that?

389
00:26:43.799 --> 00:26:46.720
I believe in Celeste as I would believe in my

390
00:26:46.839 --> 00:26:51.680
own soul. But we have a button. This insistence she

391
00:26:51.759 --> 00:26:54.720
has for wearing false jewels. How can you explain it?

392
00:26:55.000 --> 00:26:59.160
That's a schoolgirl's vanity, but she isn't a school girl.

393
00:27:01.000 --> 00:27:04.640
I must know. I must go to the opera tonight.

394
00:27:04.880 --> 00:27:07.680
I have said this before, and I'll say it again.

395
00:27:08.559 --> 00:27:13.720
Leave well Enough alone? Will you come with me? I'd

396
00:27:13.799 --> 00:27:17.119
rather not seize Monsieur de montressol be at my side,

397
00:27:17.759 --> 00:27:21.799
because if that note is the truth, then someone must

398
00:27:21.839 --> 00:27:24.680
restrain me from committing an act I shall regret for

399
00:27:24.799 --> 00:27:30.920
the rest of my life. Is it possible that the

400
00:27:30.960 --> 00:27:34.240
party might become just a little bit rough? You never

401
00:27:34.319 --> 00:27:37.640
know with these French loves toys. Well, she's either cheating

402
00:27:37.680 --> 00:27:40.960
on them or she isn't. Or can there be a

403
00:27:41.000 --> 00:27:44.799
third possibility? One thing you can be sure of, there

404
00:27:44.880 --> 00:28:02.720
is a third act? Is it possible to have complete confidence,

405
00:28:03.039 --> 00:28:06.920
absolute trust in another human being. As it says in

406
00:28:06.960 --> 00:28:11.920
the book, we walk by faith and not by sight. Oh,

407
00:28:12.000 --> 00:28:15.440
to believe with all one's heart and soul, to hold

408
00:28:15.559 --> 00:28:18.960
nothing in reserve. Is all this beyond the powers of

409
00:28:19.000 --> 00:28:22.839
poor Monsieur ari that time. Yet, if he would be

410
00:28:22.839 --> 00:28:25.519
happy with his beautiful young wife, it is what he

411
00:28:25.640 --> 00:28:26.720
is being asked to do.

412
00:28:27.279 --> 00:28:30.480
Once again, I ask you, monsieur, long time. Let us

413
00:28:30.519 --> 00:28:31.039
go home.

414
00:28:31.160 --> 00:28:34.000
I can't. You'll see she'll come out of the operas

415
00:28:34.039 --> 00:28:38.039
you walk down those steps alone or with a lady friend.

416
00:28:38.440 --> 00:28:41.400
And then how should you feel? How shall I feel? Yes,

417
00:28:41.920 --> 00:28:44.920
you already know what emotions will be generated inside you

418
00:28:45.119 --> 00:28:47.559
if she's with a man. But have you thought of

419
00:28:47.599 --> 00:28:50.200
how it would be if that note is a hoax?

420
00:28:50.519 --> 00:28:54.039
I'll feel such a blessed relief, And you may also

421
00:28:54.200 --> 00:28:58.000
feel something that is neither blessed nor relief. You shall

422
00:28:58.079 --> 00:29:02.440
feel guilt and remote because you have allowed yourself to

423
00:29:02.559 --> 00:29:03.759
question her integrity.

424
00:29:03.839 --> 00:29:06.160
Please let me hail that cab and I shall take

425
00:29:06.160 --> 00:29:06.599
you home.

426
00:29:07.039 --> 00:29:10.599
Put these terrible suspicions out of your mind forever. Yes,

427
00:29:11.400 --> 00:29:14.079
I know what you're going to say, leave well enough alone.

428
00:29:14.599 --> 00:29:17.559
But I cannot. You don't know what it is to

429
00:29:17.599 --> 00:29:18.680
be my age, a.

430
00:29:18.640 --> 00:29:22.880
Man of forty seven, no longer young, married to a

431
00:29:23.000 --> 00:29:24.039
beautiful goddess.

432
00:29:24.279 --> 00:29:26.119
I envy you, pity me.

433
00:29:26.839 --> 00:29:29.680
I am tormented by the thought that I'm not good

434
00:29:29.759 --> 00:29:30.400
enough for her.

435
00:29:30.640 --> 00:29:31.240
Nonsense.

436
00:29:31.640 --> 00:29:33.839
I see how the men turn to look at her

437
00:29:33.839 --> 00:29:36.680
when we're out together. I see the envy on their faces.

438
00:29:37.279 --> 00:29:42.400
I read the desire in their eyes. These men are rich, handsome, vigorous.

439
00:29:42.480 --> 00:29:45.839
But she chose you. Has she lived to regret it?

440
00:29:46.480 --> 00:29:50.079
Has she? Does she seem to love you? Anytheless? No?

441
00:29:50.920 --> 00:29:54.799
Does she neglect you? Is she less kind, less warm,

442
00:29:55.000 --> 00:29:55.680
less loving?

443
00:29:56.079 --> 00:29:56.160
No?

444
00:29:56.640 --> 00:29:59.039
And why must you torture yourself?

445
00:29:59.519 --> 00:30:04.839
Please let me satisfy myself, just this one time. I

446
00:30:05.000 --> 00:30:14.519
can't help myself. We walked up the steps and into

447
00:30:14.559 --> 00:30:19.759
the great lobby. We stood behind the massive marble pillar,

448
00:30:20.640 --> 00:30:24.119
where we could see without being seen. We could hear

449
00:30:24.160 --> 00:30:27.519
the wonderful Offenbach music welling up from the inside of

450
00:30:27.559 --> 00:30:32.000
the theater. Once again, I tried to convince him to leave,

451
00:30:33.119 --> 00:30:38.000
but he wouldn't listen. I don't know how long we

452
00:30:38.079 --> 00:30:56.640
stood there, but finally it was finished, and the hall

453
00:30:56.720 --> 00:31:01.079
began to emptail. There was a kaleidoscope of your uniforms,

454
00:31:01.119 --> 00:31:02.039
beautiful gowns.

455
00:31:03.000 --> 00:31:04.480
And then we saw her.

456
00:31:05.039 --> 00:31:14.200
It's a list alone, yes alone, No, she's with that lady.

457
00:31:13.720 --> 00:31:17.200
They're coming this way. They then they mustn't see us.

458
00:31:17.559 --> 00:31:19.799
Thank you for your company this evening, madam.

459
00:31:21.559 --> 00:31:25.559
But I must go right home. I have this little cold.

460
00:31:25.440 --> 00:31:28.559
Quick before she sees us. Is this what you propose

461
00:31:28.680 --> 00:31:28.920
to do?

462
00:31:29.000 --> 00:31:29.200
Now?

463
00:31:29.480 --> 00:31:32.440
Slink off with your tail between your legs. Shall we

464
00:31:32.519 --> 00:31:35.519
let this radiant lady go home by herself? I am

465
00:31:35.559 --> 00:31:36.359
so ashamed.

466
00:31:36.359 --> 00:31:39.119
You well deserve to be. I shall never never as

467
00:31:39.160 --> 00:31:41.359
long as I lived out her again, Madame.

468
00:31:41.440 --> 00:31:46.039
Later, what are you doing? Madame Walter fie monsieur de montress.

469
00:31:46.720 --> 00:31:50.880
And Henri, what are you doing here?

470
00:31:50.960 --> 00:31:51.480
You see her?

471
00:31:52.119 --> 00:31:54.920
Anri here discovered that this is my birthday.

472
00:31:55.400 --> 00:31:58.200
She insisted on taking me out to a small supper,

473
00:31:58.440 --> 00:32:01.119
and I suggested that we stop by here and have

474
00:32:01.240 --> 00:32:06.119
you joined us. I shall be delighted by cough, my darling.

475
00:32:06.319 --> 00:32:10.759
Oh, it's nothing, nothing, It mustn't spoil our evening.

476
00:32:18.039 --> 00:32:18.839
It was a.

477
00:32:18.680 --> 00:32:23.039
Modest little supper in a modest little restaurant, but in

478
00:32:23.079 --> 00:32:27.640
many ways it was the most magnificent party of my life.

479
00:32:28.519 --> 00:32:33.039
She was so gay, so sparkling, so filled with animation

480
00:32:33.200 --> 00:32:37.640
and life, and she's so obviously adored at the glory.

481
00:32:39.200 --> 00:32:42.920
But all good things must come to their end. Oh,

482
00:32:43.680 --> 00:32:48.160
they stopped playing, Yes, my dear, see they're putting away

483
00:32:48.200 --> 00:32:49.079
their instruments.

484
00:32:49.680 --> 00:32:51.000
What a pity.

485
00:32:51.640 --> 00:32:52.759
Now we must go home.

486
00:32:53.519 --> 00:32:57.359
Oh I should love to walk, but it's raining, my dearest,

487
00:32:57.640 --> 00:33:01.440
But I love to walk in the rain, not with

488
00:33:01.680 --> 00:33:05.400
that cough. Now you two wait here, I'll go and

489
00:33:05.400 --> 00:33:06.319
fetch us a cab.

490
00:33:07.440 --> 00:33:09.599
Happy birthday, Monsieur de Montpasson.

491
00:33:10.079 --> 00:33:11.599
Thank you, Madame Lantin.

492
00:33:12.079 --> 00:33:14.880
I wish I had known. I would have brought you.

493
00:33:14.880 --> 00:33:19.319
A gift, but you've already given me one I don't remember.

494
00:33:19.599 --> 00:33:20.920
And I won't forget.

495
00:33:21.319 --> 00:33:27.799
Madame Lnton Celeste sevest, you have done something that no

496
00:33:27.880 --> 00:33:30.319
one has been able to do to me before, have I.

497
00:33:31.480 --> 00:33:35.440
You've made me change my mind about what you have

498
00:33:35.680 --> 00:33:39.160
given me a kind of faith in my fellow man

499
00:33:39.759 --> 00:33:43.119
that I have never known nor allowed.

500
00:33:42.640 --> 00:33:43.279
Myself to know.

501
00:33:43.720 --> 00:33:44.559
I'm flatined.

502
00:33:44.720 --> 00:33:49.759
No, this is beyond flattery. You have kept your word,

503
00:33:50.480 --> 00:33:55.200
You have been faithful to your husband. You made that fowl.

504
00:33:55.240 --> 00:33:59.039
Remember, Oh, yes, I did say that to you. I

505
00:33:59.200 --> 00:34:03.200
remember I said no one would ever catch me being

506
00:34:03.319 --> 00:34:05.200
false to my oath of marriage.

507
00:34:05.519 --> 00:34:07.880
I never believed you, I never trusted you.

508
00:34:08.760 --> 00:34:11.679
I said to myself, how can this girl who's so

509
00:34:12.199 --> 00:34:18.239
filled with life be satisfied with a quiet, unexciting Well, well,

510
00:34:18.320 --> 00:34:18.880
he is a.

511
00:34:18.800 --> 00:34:22.880
Stick in the mud, isn't it, Yes, monsieur, but you

512
00:34:23.000 --> 00:34:25.599
see he's my stick in the mud.

513
00:34:26.559 --> 00:34:30.599
Madam, you make me ashamed of my cynicism.

514
00:34:31.079 --> 00:34:35.599
Then my good, Gui de mont Persson, go forward from

515
00:34:35.639 --> 00:34:39.440
this day and and sin no more.

516
00:34:40.920 --> 00:34:41.119
Good.

517
00:34:41.159 --> 00:34:41.800
It's last.

518
00:34:43.239 --> 00:34:48.239
It's nothing, nothing. I just feel cold. I'm I'm chilled.

519
00:34:48.239 --> 00:34:48.679
That's all.

520
00:34:50.440 --> 00:34:58.840
It's nothing, but it was everything. We took her home

521
00:34:59.199 --> 00:34:59.840
and summoned the.

522
00:35:01.639 --> 00:35:04.760
The chills gave way to a sudden and what proved

523
00:35:04.800 --> 00:35:11.519
to be overwhelming onslaught of fever. Poor child, how quickly

524
00:35:11.679 --> 00:35:13.159
she became delirious.

525
00:35:14.400 --> 00:35:24.199
Honrie, see Henri, How pretty they are, see Henri, How

526
00:35:24.239 --> 00:35:28.079
they glitter? How they clean?

527
00:35:29.559 --> 00:35:30.079
See?

528
00:35:30.360 --> 00:35:33.480
Oh, my poor darling.

529
00:35:33.920 --> 00:35:38.159
Fire fire, and I.

530
00:35:37.400 --> 00:35:38.400
Try to rest.

531
00:35:40.119 --> 00:35:43.639
I want to look pretty. I want to look rich

532
00:35:45.000 --> 00:35:49.679
for my honor. I'm a physician's daughter.

533
00:35:51.000 --> 00:35:55.320
I'm somebody. I want people to look at me.

534
00:35:55.400 --> 00:35:57.599
And I know I'm somebody.

535
00:35:59.280 --> 00:36:10.079
By me, Die on me yes, yes, promise, promise, I promise.

536
00:36:16.079 --> 00:36:19.519
But it was a promise he could never keep. She

537
00:36:19.719 --> 00:36:25.840
died the next day. Poor girl, all that life, all

538
00:36:25.920 --> 00:36:32.880
that love all he was inconsolable. He could think of nothing,

539
00:36:32.880 --> 00:36:37.199
He could talk of no one except his poor Celeste.

540
00:36:37.440 --> 00:36:40.039
He refused to go anywhere or see anyone, not even me.

541
00:36:41.199 --> 00:36:43.800
He did manage somehow to drag himself to the office

542
00:36:43.880 --> 00:36:47.880
and go through the motions of his job. But so

543
00:36:48.039 --> 00:36:50.519
I had heard, he was in a bad way, and

544
00:36:50.599 --> 00:36:53.800
even in debt. I tried to shove him, but he

545
00:36:53.880 --> 00:36:58.840
rejected all my overtures. And then one evening he called

546
00:36:58.880 --> 00:37:03.679
on me. He had a wooden jewel box in his hand.

547
00:37:04.719 --> 00:37:08.559
I was shocked to see him. He was practically white haired,

548
00:37:09.320 --> 00:37:13.840
He had hollow cheeks, his shoulders were stooped. He was

549
00:37:13.880 --> 00:37:20.159
an old, defeated man and being punished. Celeste was taken

550
00:37:20.199 --> 00:37:24.440
away from me because I doubted her. My dear friend,

551
00:37:24.519 --> 00:37:28.480
you mustn't believe that life has become so hard for me.

552
00:37:29.480 --> 00:37:32.199
Celeste knew how to spend my money, how to make

553
00:37:32.239 --> 00:37:38.360
it last, how to buy wisely. We had such excellent wines,

554
00:37:38.679 --> 00:37:43.679
such rare delicacies. How could she manage to buy such

555
00:37:43.840 --> 00:37:48.039
wonderful things. I can't even pay my own expenses on

556
00:37:48.440 --> 00:37:52.239
our time. You know, is a great healer. Today, for

557
00:37:52.280 --> 00:37:57.679
the first time since I was able to go into

558
00:37:57.760 --> 00:38:02.039
our bedroom and I saw this box. It's the one

559
00:38:02.119 --> 00:38:06.400
in which she kept all those false gems, and I

560
00:38:06.440 --> 00:38:10.199
can no longer stand the sight of them. They were

561
00:38:10.199 --> 00:38:13.719
the cause of the trouble between us. I want you

562
00:38:13.800 --> 00:38:17.559
to get rid of them for me. Oh, I would

563
00:38:17.559 --> 00:38:20.239
break them into bits, or burn them or throw them

564
00:38:20.239 --> 00:38:24.559
into the rubbish, but I haven't the heart. Please do

565
00:38:24.719 --> 00:38:28.280
me this favor. Well, of course they're just paste and

566
00:38:28.639 --> 00:38:33.159
base metal. But still some of them are very prettily made.

567
00:38:33.800 --> 00:38:37.719
They may be worth a few francs. I refuse to allow. Ah.

568
00:38:37.840 --> 00:38:39.920
Come now, listen, you just said you were in debt.

569
00:38:40.639 --> 00:38:44.360
Every penny helps, and wouldn't it be a satisfaction to

570
00:38:44.400 --> 00:38:47.559
her if she could know that these trinkets of hers

571
00:38:48.000 --> 00:38:51.840
could provide you with a meal perhaps or a new shirt.

572
00:38:52.519 --> 00:38:55.280
Come let me arrange it for you, my good friend.

573
00:39:05.440 --> 00:39:12.599
Here's monsieur I have here. Well, let me see to

574
00:39:12.639 --> 00:39:14.719
begin with a lacklace.

575
00:39:16.079 --> 00:39:18.760
What can you give me for this? Where examin it is?

576
00:39:20.119 --> 00:39:27.000
I know well enough sure that it isn't really worth anything, Nicholas, sir,

577
00:39:28.360 --> 00:39:34.559
it is worth fifteen thousand francs. What what are you saying?

578
00:39:34.639 --> 00:39:38.199
But we could not arrange for a purchase unless you

579
00:39:38.360 --> 00:39:40.119
can prove it belongs to you.

580
00:39:40.719 --> 00:39:41.599
Are you serious?

581
00:39:42.119 --> 00:39:46.519
Of course I know this, Necholas, I sold it myself.

582
00:39:46.679 --> 00:39:50.840
If you're crazy, shirt and you've come into my shop

583
00:39:50.920 --> 00:39:54.239
in order to question my satyr, No, no, forgive me,

584
00:39:54.320 --> 00:39:57.760
because it's time I questioned my own. I sold this

585
00:39:58.000 --> 00:40:02.880
netluce to a young nobleman che Vague or more. He

586
00:40:03.000 --> 00:40:09.719
instructed me to have it delivered to Madame Celeste Lantine.

587
00:40:10.360 --> 00:40:14.079
They gave you one rue de cappuccino. Ah, well, say

588
00:40:14.159 --> 00:40:17.440
no more, monsieur, say no more in the country. I

589
00:40:17.599 --> 00:40:21.440
believe wish time to say a great deal. She kept

590
00:40:21.440 --> 00:40:25.840
her promise. She didn't promise to be faithful. She said,

591
00:40:26.440 --> 00:40:29.159
no one will ever catch me being false to my

592
00:40:29.280 --> 00:40:34.760
marriage vows ah. I salute you, Celeste. You have now

593
00:40:34.960 --> 00:40:38.880
restored my true faith in humanity. Sure I must ask

594
00:40:39.000 --> 00:40:42.000
you how you come to be in possession of this necklace.

595
00:40:42.519 --> 00:40:43.559
I am acting for.

596
00:40:43.639 --> 00:40:49.719
Monsieur only long time husband of the late Celeste, longtime literally.

597
00:40:50.639 --> 00:40:56.360
Unfortunately I didn't know I wonder why business had been

598
00:40:56.400 --> 00:41:02.559
so schovery. The rest of this lot they also, I

599
00:41:02.920 --> 00:41:07.039
recognize them, and were they all purchased by the amorus

600
00:41:07.159 --> 00:41:13.280
Chevalier the holmon No no earrings, I remember with the

601
00:41:13.320 --> 00:41:16.280
gift of a captain Navarrett.

602
00:41:17.760 --> 00:41:18.760
Brooch was.

603
00:41:20.400 --> 00:41:26.360
A duke during and all the pearls a major Renald

604
00:41:26.760 --> 00:41:33.960
de Bonvald the bracelets. May think it was Monsieur dufourt No, no,

605
00:41:34.119 --> 00:41:35.079
he bought the tierra.

606
00:41:36.719 --> 00:41:38.719
That Russian count Oroff was.

607
00:41:38.679 --> 00:41:42.280
The one who Well, at any rate, I can look

608
00:41:42.360 --> 00:41:45.559
this hor for you. No, no, it won't be necessary.

609
00:41:47.000 --> 00:41:49.000
What will you give for all of it?

610
00:41:49.840 --> 00:41:50.280
Messeur?

611
00:41:50.480 --> 00:41:54.000
You cannot expect me to give you what I was

612
00:41:54.079 --> 00:42:00.320
paid for a fair price her safe time, trouble and

613
00:42:00.440 --> 00:42:06.079
say two hundred and eighty thousand pranks two hundred and

614
00:42:06.159 --> 00:42:12.239
eighty thousand, Yeah, very well rounded off at three hundred thousand.

615
00:42:13.199 --> 00:42:16.840
Shop around, sir, you'll find you'll do no better. I

616
00:42:16.920 --> 00:42:22.480
accept good. And now, sir, a little formality. Have you

617
00:42:22.719 --> 00:42:26.760
proof that you are acting for mischeur ratime? Has he

618
00:42:26.840 --> 00:42:30.280
given you a written authorization? Oh? That might present us

619
00:42:30.320 --> 00:42:34.880
with a difficulty. You see, this was a most delicate matter.

620
00:42:35.639 --> 00:42:40.119
I hope you understand perfectly. It might be awkward if

621
00:42:40.119 --> 00:42:44.800
Monsieur Lanton knew that these were actually real gems. You

622
00:42:45.639 --> 00:42:48.239
perceived the problem, of course.

623
00:42:48.320 --> 00:42:49.679
Or could you just give me the money?

624
00:42:50.599 --> 00:42:53.519
Could you assure me that this money will find its

625
00:42:53.519 --> 00:42:57.760
way into Mensieur Lantine's purse. Let me see how this

626
00:42:57.880 --> 00:43:06.199
might be done. What was his brother's name, Eugene Eugene

627
00:43:10.880 --> 00:43:14.760
Monsieur de Mommissell, Monsieur de mommaso. Let me eat and

628
00:43:15.000 --> 00:43:21.559
let me in, jaheads plasiur to Lufassell, come in, come in.

629
00:43:22.239 --> 00:43:22.840
What is it?

630
00:43:23.199 --> 00:43:27.400
I've never seen you so excited. Look this letter, it

631
00:43:27.599 --> 00:43:29.800
just came in the post. Read it.

632
00:43:29.800 --> 00:43:31.320
It's from the firm of notaries.

633
00:43:31.400 --> 00:43:31.840
Read it.

634
00:43:33.079 --> 00:43:34.599
This is to inform you.

635
00:43:34.920 --> 00:43:41.639
That your brother, Eugene Fontaine, who died last month in Indo, China,

636
00:43:42.400 --> 00:43:48.039
named you as his soul hair. Your late brother's estate

637
00:43:48.119 --> 00:43:56.000
amounts to some three hundred thousand francs. We informed three

638
00:43:56.119 --> 00:44:03.400
hundred thousand francs convention. I'm rich, rich, Yes, so you are,

639
00:44:04.440 --> 00:44:09.800
my certain mopas life is so filled with irony. Celeste,

640
00:44:11.119 --> 00:44:15.599
my poor soleist, she would have been so happy. I

641
00:44:15.719 --> 00:44:19.719
can only say that you must make it your business

642
00:44:20.480 --> 00:44:23.880
to be happy enough for two years.

643
00:44:24.519 --> 00:44:28.639
Oh, my darling Celeste, Just think.

644
00:44:29.159 --> 00:44:33.320
If only you had lived, I would have been able

645
00:44:33.400 --> 00:44:46.800
to buy you read gems. And thus Monsieur Guidemopresa ends

646
00:44:46.800 --> 00:44:49.599
his story. And for those who always thought that he

647
00:44:49.679 --> 00:44:53.000
did not use happy endings as a rule, remember most

648
00:44:53.039 --> 00:44:57.079
of his stories have reasonably happy endings. And isn't this

649
00:44:57.119 --> 00:44:59.960
one about as happy an ending as we have a

650
00:45:00.079 --> 00:45:02.559
right to expect. I'll be back shortly.

651
00:45:07.960 --> 00:45:08.079
And the.

652
00:45:16.440 --> 00:45:19.440
Philosophy expounded in our little tale is stated in the

653
00:45:19.480 --> 00:45:24.440
title leave well enough alone. It is perhaps the most

654
00:45:24.440 --> 00:45:28.480
consistently disregarded maxim in our language. There are those who

655
00:45:28.519 --> 00:45:32.599
cannot live with success, who are made uncomfortable by the

656
00:45:32.599 --> 00:45:37.360
smooth progress of everyday affairs. They must always royal still

657
00:45:37.440 --> 00:45:40.480
waters tap on the glass as a rectal cage in

658
00:45:40.519 --> 00:45:44.320
the zoo, insist on fixing things that aren't broken. But

659
00:45:44.679 --> 00:45:48.760
we shouldn't complain without such folk, whatever would we do

660
00:45:48.920 --> 00:45:53.039
for stories? Our cast included John Beale, Court Benson, and

661
00:45:53.079 --> 00:45:56.760
Tracy Ellis. The entire production was under the direction of

662
00:45:56.880 --> 00:45:57.599
Hymon Brown.

663
00:46:02.599 --> 00:46:07.920
Well, my dear, looks like you've managed to get quite comfortable.

664
00:46:08.719 --> 00:46:17.679
Good good, This makes me happy. Well, I suppose another

665
00:46:17.800 --> 00:46:25.039
log on the fire couldn't hurt. It is chilly out there. Now,

666
00:46:25.079 --> 00:46:30.000
you just kick back and relax. The fire will be

667
00:46:30.119 --> 00:46:37.440
roaring in no time. Another pot ready to boil, and us, well,

668
00:46:38.599 --> 00:46:43.519
we'll kick back like we're living in the diary of

669
00:46:43.719 --> 00:46:44.800
doctor Pritchard.

670
00:46:51.159 --> 00:46:54.039

the smoothest performance money can buy.

685
00:47:58.119 --> 00:48:01.320
Oh, Christopher Columbus had plenty of trouble because he insisted

686
00:48:01.360 --> 00:48:02.320
the world was round.

687
00:48:02.480 --> 00:48:05.199
Ah, but you'll never have trouble if you insist on

00:48:13.840 --> 00:48:18.480

Cedric Hardwick and hoping once again to keep you in suspense.

693
00:48:37.239 --> 00:48:41.519
Well, yeah, lillin, how I want you to drink every up?

694
00:48:42.159 --> 00:48:43.400
Will it taste nasty?

695
00:48:43.519 --> 00:48:43.880
Gut to?

696
00:48:44.079 --> 00:48:46.719
No, no, no, not at all, little sour. Perhaps that's

697
00:48:46.760 --> 00:48:50.440
all to make you feel ever so much better. Hold

698
00:48:50.480 --> 00:48:53.000
your nurse if you like, and mind you every gop

699
00:48:53.559 --> 00:49:00.280
come along. I'm so bad, not very nice, have to

700
00:49:00.280 --> 00:49:04.519
take the biddle with the sweet naughty girl. Too many

701
00:49:04.559 --> 00:49:10.840
treatle talks. Eh ah, a touch of gastric annoyance. Well, well,

702
00:49:10.920 --> 00:49:13.360
we'll be careful of our waistline.

703
00:49:14.199 --> 00:49:15.239
Such a pretty waist.

704
00:49:17.559 --> 00:49:21.400
I think I'm getting sweety good.

705
00:49:21.519 --> 00:49:24.079
Lie down, I'll cover you up.

706
00:49:26.599 --> 00:49:27.559
Yes, so good to me.

707
00:49:27.719 --> 00:49:29.960
Doctor. You are a good girl, Lily.

708
00:49:30.760 --> 00:49:32.760
Your particles.

709
00:49:33.719 --> 00:49:34.119
Stop.

710
00:49:35.599 --> 00:49:58.679
Good night, Lily, sleep well m nae h really, really, Milly,

711
00:50:01.280 --> 00:50:32.239
that's better. Good night Lily. Fifth of May. What a

712
00:50:32.559 --> 00:50:36.480
frightful thing. The upstairs maid passed away in her bed.

713
00:50:36.599 --> 00:50:39.360
She must have fallen asleep whilst reading, and I suppose

714
00:50:39.440 --> 00:50:42.880
the guest I ignited the curtains. She burnt to death.

715
00:50:44.199 --> 00:50:46.239
Poor little Lidy. It will be a great loss to

716
00:50:46.320 --> 00:50:49.440
missus Richard. I shall have to wire her the first

717
00:50:49.519 --> 00:50:52.360
thing in the morning. Then it will be as well

718
00:50:52.519 --> 00:50:55.440
to engage a maid to replace Lily as soon as possible.

719
00:50:56.039 --> 00:50:59.440
After that we had better move to a more suitable residence.

720
00:51:00.480 --> 00:51:02.960
But why, dear, why must be moved?

721
00:51:03.159 --> 00:51:05.960
I've been thinking about it for quite a long time, Mary,

722
00:51:06.760 --> 00:51:09.000
whilst you were away, I made up my mind to

723
00:51:09.079 --> 00:51:13.519
suggest it. And now after what happened to poor Lily has.

724
00:51:13.480 --> 00:51:16.440
Means so lovely here, especially for the children.

725
00:51:16.599 --> 00:51:18.800
I know, but there is my position too. We owe

726
00:51:18.840 --> 00:51:22.079
it to ourselves to keep up appearances. Now there's a

727
00:51:22.239 --> 00:51:25.559
delightful spot in Cavern's space. I'm sure you'll be very

728
00:51:25.679 --> 00:51:26.119
happy with.

729
00:51:26.199 --> 00:51:30.119
It, all right, dear, if you think it for the.

730
00:51:30.119 --> 00:51:32.960
Best, Indeed I do the best for us all.

731
00:51:34.880 --> 00:51:36.519
Oh, are you going out?

732
00:51:36.599 --> 00:51:36.800
Dear?

733
00:51:37.119 --> 00:51:39.679
Yes? I I have one or two patients to see.

734
00:51:40.320 --> 00:51:44.719
Well before you go, I I did want to talk

735
00:51:44.760 --> 00:51:47.840
to you about the new maid Ellen. Oh, it was

736
00:51:48.000 --> 00:51:49.960
terribly sweet of you to engage her while I was

737
00:51:50.000 --> 00:51:55.599
with mother. But but well, I I rather wonder whether

738
00:51:55.679 --> 00:51:59.559
she's exactly suitable. I mean, she does seem a.

739
00:51:59.559 --> 00:52:03.480
Little I hadn't noticed that. I find her character excellent,

740
00:52:03.559 --> 00:52:08.320
in her appearance very pleasing. Well, yes, but Mary, I

741
00:52:08.719 --> 00:52:11.119
think you better begin the arrangements for the movie.

742
00:52:11.920 --> 00:52:14.960
I shall be home in time for dinner. Goodbye, my

743
00:52:15.079 --> 00:52:22.440
dear ninth of May.

744
00:52:23.719 --> 00:52:28.239
Dear sweet Mary, how she does worry about every little detail.

745
00:52:28.320 --> 00:52:30.519
How can one man be so blessed with such a

746
00:52:30.639 --> 00:52:34.360
loving wife and the family. I must provide only the

747
00:52:34.440 --> 00:52:37.559
best for them. I do hope that Mary likes the

748
00:52:37.679 --> 00:52:40.760
new house. I'm sure that she will once be settled.

749
00:52:46.960 --> 00:52:49.880
Third of June. We are going to be very happy

750
00:52:50.000 --> 00:52:52.960
out here in Canon's place. That children are adjusting themselves

751
00:52:53.119 --> 00:52:57.079
marvelously to their new surroundings. I was rather aggravated at

752
00:52:57.119 --> 00:53:00.559
the insurance company refused to pay compensation for the belongings

753
00:53:00.599 --> 00:53:04.760
upon unfortunate Lily a few trifling bables which couldn't be

754
00:53:04.760 --> 00:53:08.440
found in her room. I almost received the impression that

755
00:53:08.519 --> 00:53:11.239
they suspected I was making a fraudulent claim. I actually

756
00:53:11.320 --> 00:53:16.280
change companies immediately. Must remember to prepare tonic for Darling Mary.

757
00:53:17.119 --> 00:53:18.800
She seems rather tired lately.

758
00:53:26.199 --> 00:53:29.519
Good evening, Doctor, good evening, Ellen? Everything all right today?

759
00:53:30.360 --> 00:53:32.199
Oh yes, sir, that's good.

760
00:53:32.960 --> 00:53:35.480
And what has Cook prepared for dinner? Eh?

761
00:53:36.039 --> 00:53:39.719
Something I'm sure you like, sir. By the way, sir,

762
00:53:40.320 --> 00:53:42.480
I forgot to thank you for the pretty things you

763
00:53:42.599 --> 00:53:43.840
left in my room the other day.

764
00:53:44.400 --> 00:53:46.320
They must have been awfully extensive.

765
00:53:46.440 --> 00:53:49.320
Not at all, my dear, you're a very obliging girl.

766
00:53:50.079 --> 00:53:51.599
The borbles were nothing at tall.

767
00:53:51.840 --> 00:53:56.880
Nothing. Where is missus Bitton upstairs?

768
00:53:56.920 --> 00:53:57.039
Sir?

769
00:53:57.159 --> 00:54:00.639
She's not feeling very well to lie down after tea, Dear.

770
00:54:00.559 --> 00:54:05.039
Me, I'm strung up. Oh you're right off, isn't it allan?

771
00:54:06.400 --> 00:54:07.000
Yes, sir?

772
00:54:07.320 --> 00:54:11.960
Quite, I should know, shouldn't I I may have to

773
00:54:12.039 --> 00:54:14.320
go out myself later to see your patient?

774
00:54:15.800 --> 00:54:18.159
Well, yes, sir, you are illan.

775
00:54:18.840 --> 00:54:20.480
Perhaps I can drop you off somewhere.

776
00:54:20.800 --> 00:54:22.239
Eh, thank you, sir.

777
00:54:22.719 --> 00:54:24.440
Thanks, not at all?

778
00:54:25.400 --> 00:54:37.280
Tell Cook I should be ready for supper in ten minutes, sir. Well,

779
00:54:38.039 --> 00:54:39.400
well what have we here?

780
00:54:40.119 --> 00:54:40.280
Oh?

781
00:54:41.280 --> 00:54:41.480
Hello?

782
00:54:42.360 --> 00:54:45.519
This will never do what seems to be the trouble Mary.

783
00:54:45.760 --> 00:54:50.159
And I don't know. I just don't feel well.

784
00:54:50.320 --> 00:54:53.679
Nonsense. Have you been taking the tonic? Yes, dear, why

785
00:54:54.119 --> 00:54:59.400
I think that you're babing yourself very little, perhaps out

786
00:54:59.480 --> 00:54:59.719
with it.

787
00:55:00.480 --> 00:55:04.320
And I really don't feel it all well Edward, my

788
00:55:04.480 --> 00:55:06.880
headaches and well, I feel sick.

789
00:55:07.280 --> 00:55:09.000
Let's try a spoonful of tonic.

790
00:55:09.159 --> 00:55:13.559
M It doesn't seem to really do any good.

791
00:55:13.880 --> 00:55:16.719
Ah now now doctor knows best. M h.

792
00:55:17.800 --> 00:55:20.639
There's a sedative in here. Help you to relax. The

793
00:55:20.800 --> 00:55:22.400
moving must have been too much for you.

794
00:55:23.840 --> 00:55:25.400
I suppose so set up.

795
00:55:25.519 --> 00:55:25.719
Dear.

796
00:55:27.320 --> 00:55:34.440
We must take care of my sweetheart, mustn't I. I

797
00:55:34.519 --> 00:55:36.679
shall have to go out later. I'll leave instructions with

798
00:55:36.800 --> 00:55:38.840
nurse to put the children to bed. I want you

799
00:55:39.000 --> 00:55:39.440
to rest.

800
00:55:40.320 --> 00:55:48.920
Yes, Oh, it's my stomach, I think now.

801
00:55:49.199 --> 00:55:51.599
I now try to rest. Cook will send you up

802
00:55:51.639 --> 00:55:53.440
some hot broth later. I shan't be late.

803
00:56:01.519 --> 00:56:03.360
I had a lovely evening, sir.

804
00:56:03.719 --> 00:56:05.000
I'm so glad. Ellen.

805
00:56:07.239 --> 00:56:08.840
Don't you think that I ought to go around to

806
00:56:08.880 --> 00:56:09.920
the service entrance?

807
00:56:10.159 --> 00:56:16.079
Of course, not, silly girl. I walked you home, didn't I? Yes, sir, Ah,

808
00:56:17.039 --> 00:56:20.360
before we go in, Ellen, don't.

809
00:56:20.199 --> 00:56:22.360
You think that someone will see.

810
00:56:22.559 --> 00:56:25.000
Oh no, it's it's too dark here.

811
00:56:27.480 --> 00:56:29.519
You're kid it tickled?

812
00:56:30.000 --> 00:56:33.880
M m what was that?

813
00:56:41.519 --> 00:56:41.920
Richards?

814
00:56:42.480 --> 00:56:44.000
Oh she's been murdered.

815
00:56:44.920 --> 00:56:56.760
Immediately, Mary, Mary, what's the matter Maddy? Oh?

816
00:56:58.239 --> 00:57:01.000
Oh, the same in my.

817
00:57:03.480 --> 00:57:06.199
Idea, you're work at the whole. Do try to control yourself?

818
00:57:06.480 --> 00:57:06.679
Yeah?

819
00:57:07.960 --> 00:57:13.159
Uh, what's the matter with me? Hi, I'm so sick.

820
00:57:14.559 --> 00:57:16.519
Edward, what is it?

821
00:57:16.840 --> 00:57:22.519
Or more than likely acute indigestion nerves? You know, Edward?

822
00:57:23.519 --> 00:57:25.239
Huh, I'm frightened.

823
00:57:26.400 --> 00:57:32.239
We weilla die? Oh, you old girl, you are.

824
00:57:32.320 --> 00:57:36.840
You're as healthy as an ox. I'll stop worrying. We'll

825
00:57:37.000 --> 00:57:39.760
have you fit as a fiddle, and writers reign in

826
00:57:39.840 --> 00:57:40.280
no time.

827
00:57:40.519 --> 00:57:40.880
Hm hmm.

828
00:57:47.039 --> 00:57:51.639
Tenth of June. I am of my wits end. Following

829
00:57:51.679 --> 00:57:54.840
her seizure a week ago, Mary seemed to improve, then

830
00:57:54.920 --> 00:57:56.880
she came down again with terrible pain.

831
00:57:57.880 --> 00:57:58.960
My poor dear girl.

832
00:58:00.199 --> 00:58:02.840
She has sent for her mother, who's coming over from Edinburgh.

833
00:58:02.880 --> 00:58:05.199
I could not deny her wish, and I shall be

834
00:58:05.320 --> 00:58:10.000
overjoyed having missus Taylor here. Some of our friends are

835
00:58:10.039 --> 00:58:12.960
talking about a consultation, in particular doctor Gardner.

836
00:58:13.760 --> 00:58:16.960
I've given him my diagnosis. He seems to agree, but

837
00:58:17.079 --> 00:58:21.000
there is some doubt. Our house is a mournful place

838
00:58:21.119 --> 00:58:23.440
these days. I shall be so happy to see mother.

839
00:58:32.800 --> 00:58:38.199
Ed Hello, Mother, welcome, Welcome. How is my sweetheart?

840
00:58:38.320 --> 00:58:40.079
Your wife is very very ill, Edward.

841
00:58:40.320 --> 00:58:43.400
I want to talk to you about her. Yes, what

842
00:58:43.519 --> 00:58:45.920
are you up to? Edward? I beg your pardon?

843
00:58:46.360 --> 00:58:47.519
What's the matter with Mary?

844
00:58:47.880 --> 00:58:50.039
If I knew? Do you think she'd be suffering the

845
00:58:50.119 --> 00:58:51.519
way she is now?

846
00:58:51.599 --> 00:58:52.079
Listen to me.

847
00:58:53.079 --> 00:58:54.840
I telephone doctor Gardner and.

848
00:58:55.000 --> 00:58:56.719
This is extremely unethical. Mother.

849
00:58:57.000 --> 00:59:00.599
If my daughter dies, that'll be more unethical, Edward. She

850
00:59:00.840 --> 00:59:03.719
was perfectly well when she visited me last month.

851
00:59:04.000 --> 00:59:07.079
Perfectly now she is not. Do you find that unusual?

852
00:59:07.519 --> 00:59:11.159
Doctor Gardner doesn't quite agree with your diagnosis. He feels

853
00:59:11.199 --> 00:59:13.679
that it's not his place to interfere, but that Mary

854
00:59:13.719 --> 00:59:15.000
should have hospital attention.

855
00:59:15.360 --> 00:59:17.679
I think that I may be the better judge.

856
00:59:18.119 --> 00:59:20.760
I can't push it to listen to doctor Gardner, Edward,

857
00:59:21.440 --> 00:59:23.719
But I'm staying here to look after Mary.

858
00:59:24.360 --> 00:59:24.960
Is that clear?

859
00:59:25.280 --> 00:59:27.559
If you feel it's your place, I shall be with

860
00:59:27.719 --> 00:59:28.400
her day and night.

861
00:59:29.280 --> 00:59:31.480
I'm going to prepare her food, everything.

862
00:59:32.159 --> 00:59:33.960
Oh, I see.

863
00:59:34.360 --> 00:59:35.880
I'm glad that you do, Edward.

864
00:59:36.360 --> 00:59:46.000
It'll make everything so much better. Canil June five p m.

865
00:59:47.000 --> 00:59:51.519
What an extraordinarily good woman is missus Taylor believes me

866
00:59:51.639 --> 00:59:56.760
of such a burden, Ah, motherhood. I could tigris protecting

867
00:59:56.840 --> 00:59:57.519
her young.

868
00:59:57.960 --> 01:00:00.719
And I would have it no other way. I must

869
01:00:00.840 --> 01:00:03.079
do something for dear mother while she's here.

870
01:00:05.360 --> 01:00:08.119
Afternoon, Doctor Prichard, lovely day.

871
01:00:08.920 --> 01:00:13.800
Then I say I need an ounce of Henley's Tincture

872
01:00:13.880 --> 01:00:14.679
of acronine.

873
01:00:14.840 --> 01:00:20.039
Now, Oh, of course, doctor, Hey, you must use quite

874
01:00:20.079 --> 01:00:22.280
a lot of that. Doctor. Didn't you buy an ounce

875
01:00:22.559 --> 01:00:23.320
last month?

876
01:00:23.480 --> 01:00:23.599
Oh?

877
01:00:23.679 --> 01:00:27.679
Yes, yes, I find it an excellent preparation for intestinal ailments.

878
01:00:27.880 --> 01:00:31.360
Oh glad to know about that, my wife.

879
01:00:31.519 --> 01:00:35.280
I really shouldn't administrate if I were you without medical supervision,

880
01:00:35.400 --> 01:00:38.280
it could be dangerous, quite dangerous.

881
01:00:53.639 --> 01:00:57.360
All right, it's bringing you Sarah Cedric Hardwick in the

882
01:00:57.519 --> 01:01:02.239
Diary of Doctor Pritchard to Night's presentation in Radio's Outstanding

883
01:01:02.440 --> 01:01:05.000
Theater of Thrills Suspense.

884
01:01:14.360 --> 01:01:18.639
Hey, harlow, that Christopher Columbus is sure a famoush name.

885
01:01:18.800 --> 01:01:21.840
Sure it is, mister Mcsdawley, just like auto Light, the

886
01:01:21.920 --> 01:01:26.679
world's largest independent manufacturer of automotive electrical equipment. Why complete

887
01:01:26.760 --> 01:01:30.599
autolid electrical systems are used as original equipment on many

888
01:01:30.719 --> 01:01:33.400
leading makes of our finest cars, trucks and tractors.

889
01:01:33.519 --> 01:01:35.360
Remember was a fine worker, Harlow.

890
01:01:35.559 --> 01:01:38.360
So is the auto light electrical system. It goes to

891
01:01:38.440 --> 01:01:40.519
work the instant you turn on the ignition, and it

892
01:01:40.639 --> 01:01:43.760
keeps working every second your car is in operation. It

893
01:01:43.880 --> 01:01:46.280
works too when you blow your horn, play your radio,

894
01:01:46.400 --> 01:01:49.599
turn on your lights, or use your electric windshield wipers.

895
01:01:50.119 --> 01:01:51.599
Mighty important, Harlow.

896
01:01:51.480 --> 01:01:55.039
And it is so friends. Treat the electrical system of

897
01:01:55.119 --> 01:01:58.719
your car to a periodic checkup at your car dealers

898
01:01:59.119 --> 01:02:02.679
or at your nearest authorized auto light service station, where

899
01:02:02.719 --> 01:02:05.840
you will find experts that know the electrical system of

900
01:02:05.960 --> 01:02:09.760
your car. Best to locate your nearest authorized auto light

901
01:02:09.840 --> 01:02:13.320
service station, look in the classified section of your telephone

902
01:02:13.360 --> 01:02:19.079
directory under Automobile Electrical Service or Telephone Western Union and

903
01:02:19.239 --> 01:02:23.440
ask for operator twenty five. And remember, from bumper to

904
01:02:23.559 --> 01:02:28.039
tail light, you're always right with auto light. And now

905
01:02:28.400 --> 01:02:32.320
auto light brings back to our Hollywood soundstage, Sir Cedric

906
01:02:32.360 --> 01:02:37.519
Hardwick in Elliott Lewis's production of the Diary of Doctor Pritchard,

907
01:02:38.039 --> 01:02:43.440
A true story well calculated to keep you in suspence.

908
01:02:54.760 --> 01:02:58.440
Two days since Mother Taylor arrived, how splendid she has been?

909
01:02:58.559 --> 01:03:01.800
She idolizes Mary and doesn't move from her side night

910
01:03:01.960 --> 01:03:05.440
or day. I know that she couldn't be in better hands.

911
01:03:06.400 --> 01:03:08.519
For a little while, I wondered whether it might not

912
01:03:08.679 --> 01:03:10.840
be better to send Mary to hospital, But now I

913
01:03:10.960 --> 01:03:15.519
think not. She's already showing signs of imprudent. How delighted

914
01:03:15.599 --> 01:03:18.239
I am to see the color returning to her cheeks?

915
01:03:19.880 --> 01:03:21.360
And how is the patient to day?

916
01:03:21.880 --> 01:03:22.000
Oh?

917
01:03:22.119 --> 01:03:24.920
I feel ever so much better? Thank you, Edred, I'm

918
01:03:25.000 --> 01:03:29.519
so glad Edred. Yes, my dear, give me your hand.

919
01:03:31.119 --> 01:03:33.679
Mother has been talking to me about going to Edinburgh

920
01:03:33.760 --> 01:03:36.199
with her, shaking the children as well.

921
01:03:36.559 --> 01:03:40.360
Has she has? She? Now I wonder why do you

922
01:03:40.480 --> 01:03:42.119
think she feels you need a change.

923
01:03:42.480 --> 01:03:43.320
I'm not going.

924
01:03:44.119 --> 01:03:49.159
My place is with you. We've never spoken much of

925
01:03:49.239 --> 01:03:50.519
these things, have we, Dear?

926
01:03:50.679 --> 01:03:51.719
I don't well.

927
01:03:51.800 --> 01:03:56.079
I mean here we are twenty years married and forgets

928
01:03:56.119 --> 01:04:00.800
that doesn't run. Have you been happy? Have I made

929
01:04:00.840 --> 01:04:01.320
you happy?

930
01:04:01.760 --> 01:04:02.800
What an odd question?

931
01:04:03.079 --> 01:04:06.480
Oh no, it isn't. I've tried to make mother see that.

932
01:04:07.559 --> 01:04:10.320
She thinks that I'm not happy with you, but she's wrong.

933
01:04:11.159 --> 01:04:15.159
She's always been wrong. I love you, Edward.

934
01:04:18.599 --> 01:04:19.960
Well, Well, I.

935
01:04:20.079 --> 01:04:23.360
Doesn't that smell nice? Your appetite is improving. My dear,

936
01:04:23.880 --> 01:04:25.920
you will be out of bed in no time. Yes,

937
01:04:26.119 --> 01:04:30.599
she will, thanks to you, eh, Mother, Are we dining together?

938
01:04:31.159 --> 01:04:34.559
I'll be down pleasantly good. Don't belong, will you? I'm famished.

939
01:04:41.280 --> 01:04:46.239
Fifteenth of June, eight pm. I rarely believe things are

940
01:04:46.280 --> 01:04:50.239
getting better. Mary finished every scrap of her food, and

941
01:04:50.280 --> 01:04:51.920
when I went up to say good night, she look

942
01:04:52.039 --> 01:04:55.440
positively radiant. I must say that dinner with mother was

943
01:04:55.480 --> 01:04:57.840
a pleasure, and very soon now all will be as

944
01:04:57.880 --> 01:05:01.679
it was before. Mother will be gone. I think I

945
01:05:01.719 --> 01:05:03.760
shall go to the music hall to night. It's the

946
01:05:03.880 --> 01:05:05.760
servant's night off, and I should like to get out

947
01:05:05.800 --> 01:05:08.239
of the house to make a change after the strain

948
01:05:08.320 --> 01:05:08.960
I've been through.

949
01:05:09.480 --> 01:05:11.280
I know Mother will take care of Mary.

950
01:05:18.480 --> 01:05:20.880
I did what I could, Richard. I tried to reach you,

951
01:05:20.960 --> 01:05:23.880
but couldn't find you. I'm afraid it was too late anyway.

952
01:05:23.920 --> 01:05:29.360
How horrible what could have happened? I don't know, Catalepsy.

953
01:05:29.400 --> 01:05:31.559
Do you think Gardner the old lady has a history?

954
01:05:31.599 --> 01:05:33.480
You know? Yes, it's possible.

955
01:05:34.360 --> 01:05:36.119
Was she all right when you left her this evening?

956
01:05:36.280 --> 01:05:42.920
Quite? Does Mary know? No? He's asleep? Poor girl, Poor,

957
01:05:43.480 --> 01:05:46.280
poor girl. It'd be such a shock.

958
01:05:46.840 --> 01:05:48.400
I was on my way over to see how Mary

959
01:05:48.480 --> 01:05:51.599
was getting on friendly visit. I was alarmed when nobody

960
01:05:51.639 --> 01:05:54.599
answered the door, and then missus Taylor somehow manages to

961
01:05:54.719 --> 01:05:56.000
come downstairs brave.

962
01:05:56.239 --> 01:05:58.960
So I do hope she didn't suffer. She died a

963
01:05:59.000 --> 01:06:03.920
few minutes later. She was in great pain, Prichard, vital fight.

964
01:06:05.679 --> 01:06:08.440
I don't know what this will do to marry. Break

965
01:06:08.480 --> 01:06:10.800
it as gently as you can, won't you? Of course?

966
01:06:12.360 --> 01:06:13.519
Can I make you a whiskey?

967
01:06:14.159 --> 01:06:14.199
No?

968
01:06:14.519 --> 01:06:17.639
No, thank you, No, I'd better be off. Yes, yes,

969
01:06:18.639 --> 01:06:23.320
I say about the death certificate and catalepsy. You think,

970
01:06:24.039 --> 01:06:24.800
I'm not sure?

971
01:06:25.800 --> 01:06:28.880
It is rather odd, almost as though as though she

972
01:06:28.920 --> 01:06:29.719
had been drugged.

973
01:06:30.239 --> 01:06:36.000
Drugged, Oh, yes, well that's possible. You know she had

974
01:06:36.039 --> 01:06:38.400
been in the habit of taking pills at night Insomnyea,

975
01:06:38.519 --> 01:06:41.320
she got not a very good habit. I'm afraid that

976
01:06:41.519 --> 01:06:45.159
mighty count for it, don't you think it might well?

977
01:06:45.280 --> 01:06:45.599
Please?

978
01:06:45.679 --> 01:06:48.800
After my condolences to missus Prichard, I'll drop by in

979
01:06:48.800 --> 01:06:49.320
a day or two.

980
01:06:49.480 --> 01:06:52.920
Awfully kind of your gardener, I'll see you to the door.

981
01:07:00.079 --> 01:07:04.000
Sixteenth of June, in the midst of life. We are

982
01:07:04.119 --> 01:07:07.639
in death. How sorry a truth in our house. We

983
01:07:07.719 --> 01:07:13.239
are in mourning. A fine old lady has died. Mary

984
01:07:13.320 --> 01:07:18.159
took the news bravely from Once again we are together alone.

985
01:07:25.679 --> 01:07:29.400
Twenty fifth of June. Doctor Gardiner made the death certificate.

986
01:07:29.559 --> 01:07:32.119
Mother was buried a week ago. I have been so

987
01:07:32.239 --> 01:07:34.559
occupied in my practice that I have had no chance

988
01:07:34.599 --> 01:07:38.159
of making interest until now. Doctor Gardener has been calling

989
01:07:38.239 --> 01:07:39.920
quite often to inquire about Mary.

990
01:07:40.039 --> 01:07:44.199
What a thoughtful man. We are fortunate, indeed to have

991
01:07:44.400 --> 01:07:45.000
such a friend.

992
01:07:46.000 --> 01:07:49.360
After the tragic news Mary has suffered us like relapse

993
01:07:49.480 --> 01:07:51.000
better it was to be expected.

994
01:07:56.519 --> 01:07:57.360
Sixth of July.

995
01:07:58.840 --> 01:08:02.519
Little improvement in my my dearest marriage health last night

996
01:08:02.559 --> 01:08:03.599
a severe attack.

997
01:08:04.719 --> 01:08:07.719
That Gardener is troubled and begs me to center the hospital.

998
01:08:08.880 --> 01:08:09.760
What can I say?

999
01:08:10.800 --> 01:08:13.280
I know that we're all better off with her at home.

1000
01:08:14.760 --> 01:08:17.560
It is for me to use all my medical knowledge

1001
01:08:17.600 --> 01:08:20.840
to make things easier. Now I cannot bear her agonies.

1002
01:08:21.119 --> 01:08:27.680
It has gone too long. Hello doctor, good afternoon. I

1003
01:08:27.880 --> 01:08:31.760
have one or two prescriptions for you to feel very good, doctor,

1004
01:08:31.960 --> 01:08:33.680
and I think.

1005
01:08:33.760 --> 01:08:37.000
You can add half an ounce of Henley's tincture of aconine.

1006
01:08:37.520 --> 01:08:40.960
Dis gracious doctor. Every indigestion case in the city must

1007
01:08:41.000 --> 01:08:41.399
come to you.

1008
01:08:43.039 --> 01:08:45.399
Oh well, I'm not read as all popular, you know.

1009
01:08:45.560 --> 01:08:56.600
Still still the medicine does serve its purpose. Sixth of July,

1010
01:08:56.920 --> 01:09:02.119
seven pm. I know my die knows this sound. I

1011
01:09:02.239 --> 01:09:05.239
explained to doctor Garner, and he must have been convinced.

1012
01:09:06.600 --> 01:09:09.000
The children have gone off their aunts for the holidays.

1013
01:09:09.560 --> 01:09:12.760
It is much better that way. Ellen has taken an

1014
01:09:12.800 --> 01:09:16.079
egg flip to Mary. She eats so little nowadays.

1015
01:09:17.239 --> 01:09:18.039
Doctor Pritchard.

1016
01:09:18.439 --> 01:09:24.159
Doctor Ellen, Ellen, I have asked you to knock.

1017
01:09:24.359 --> 01:09:27.800
I'm sorry, So what I keep the medal? Eye tasted it?

1018
01:09:28.079 --> 01:09:29.640
Why? Why did you taste that?

1019
01:09:29.800 --> 01:09:33.800
I'm sorry? So she asked me to It's awful, burning like.

1020
01:09:33.960 --> 01:09:35.600
I don't think she should have it.

1021
01:09:36.159 --> 01:09:39.159
It must have been bad or something. I feel awful, sick.

1022
01:09:39.399 --> 01:09:41.560
Go downstairs, Ellen, She oughtn't to drink.

1023
01:09:41.600 --> 01:09:42.159
It's so rare.

1024
01:09:42.279 --> 01:09:45.119
Now I'll take care of villain. Go downstairs now, Yes,

1025
01:09:45.800 --> 01:09:48.920
all right? Uh, you only took her sib in Jim. Yes,

1026
01:09:49.720 --> 01:09:51.439
I ask Corc to give you a glass of milk.

1027
01:09:51.479 --> 01:10:05.800
Will be all right, I will. Ellen tells me you're

1028
01:10:05.840 --> 01:10:08.880
being very naughty. You won't take your egg flip, and

1029
01:10:08.960 --> 01:10:09.560
you used.

1030
01:10:09.359 --> 01:10:10.079
To love them.

1031
01:10:12.079 --> 01:10:13.439
It doesn't taste the way it.

1032
01:10:15.560 --> 01:10:18.079
Burns my throat. I can't drink it.

1033
01:10:18.760 --> 01:10:19.159
I can't.

1034
01:10:19.239 --> 01:10:21.000
What am am I going to do with you?

1035
01:10:22.000 --> 01:10:25.000
You must take knowledge? And this is so good for you, dear,

1036
01:10:25.119 --> 01:10:28.079
please for me? Oh yeah, I'll sit you up.

1037
01:10:28.640 --> 01:10:31.359
No no, no, no, no no.

1038
01:10:31.479 --> 01:10:33.479
I expect the children to behave this way, but not

1039
01:10:33.720 --> 01:10:35.840
my Mary. Drink it up.

1040
01:10:36.800 --> 01:10:40.880
Oh no, don't kill me? Please No, I can't.

1041
01:10:41.239 --> 01:10:41.800
I can't.

1042
01:10:42.159 --> 01:11:12.600
I'm afraid you must. Oh no, that's a good Yeah yeah,

1043
01:11:21.840 --> 01:11:27.000
sixth of July, eight pm. Tonight, my darling wife, Mary

1044
01:11:27.159 --> 01:11:32.119
Jane Pitchard passed from this life. Her last words were

1045
01:11:32.159 --> 01:11:36.119
of loved and you know her eyes was tenderness.

1046
01:11:37.359 --> 01:11:41.079
How shall I live without her? What nobility and goodness

1047
01:11:41.159 --> 01:11:41.720
she possessed?

1048
01:11:41.760 --> 01:11:45.600
I cannot find words with which describe my feelings at

1049
01:11:45.600 --> 01:11:49.800
this moment. I do hope that Ellen is not indisposed.

1050
01:11:49.840 --> 01:11:52.680
Foolish little thing. She might have been very indeed, tasting

1051
01:11:52.800 --> 01:11:57.319
what she did, what a tiny waist she has, and

1052
01:11:57.520 --> 01:11:59.800
how she loves to stroke my beard?

1053
01:12:00.439 --> 01:12:07.720
Ah, little elis doctor Pritchard. Ah, good evening, gardener.

1054
01:12:08.239 --> 01:12:10.119
We've just come from the chemist shop, Prichard.

1055
01:12:10.560 --> 01:12:11.760
We know about your purchases.

1056
01:12:11.840 --> 01:12:15.319
There really tincture of Aconin. That's what you was, isn't it.

1057
01:12:16.119 --> 01:12:17.920
I should have known. I should have known that's what

1058
01:12:18.039 --> 01:12:21.000
killed missus Taylor. No dofter God now taking of this,

1059
01:12:22.000 --> 01:12:24.680
your wife is dead, Doctor Pridget. I warn you that

1060
01:12:24.800 --> 01:12:26.680
anything you say may be taken down and given in

1061
01:12:26.760 --> 01:12:27.560
evidence against you.

1062
01:12:27.800 --> 01:12:31.680
I imagine it will be why why did you kill him?

1063
01:12:32.359 --> 01:12:38.279
So many reasons, all things considered. I thought it for

1064
01:12:38.399 --> 01:12:44.159
the best. You probably wouldn't understand. I shall have to

1065
01:12:44.199 --> 01:12:46.119
ask you to come along to the station with meself.

1066
01:12:46.279 --> 01:12:52.399
Oh yes, yes, of course. I wonder though if you'd

1067
01:12:52.479 --> 01:12:56.760
mind waiting for just one moment. I have one last

1068
01:12:57.079 --> 01:13:04.720
entry to make in my die marry my darling and

1069
01:13:04.840 --> 01:13:08.880
your mother Taylor. Soon, quite soon, we shall meet in

1070
01:13:09.000 --> 01:13:14.000
happier circumstances, in a far happier place. How could it

1071
01:13:14.079 --> 01:13:20.159
be otherwise? I have no fear, only regret that no

1072
01:13:20.279 --> 01:13:25.319
one will know my last thoughts. I close this entry

1073
01:13:25.399 --> 01:13:29.359
with these words to whom it may concern. For he

1074
01:13:29.680 --> 01:13:34.439
who lives more lives than one, more deaths than one,

1075
01:13:34.920 --> 01:13:35.479
must die.

1076
01:13:58.960 --> 01:14:04.119
Sal Spends a true story presented by Autolite to night

1077
01:14:04.199 --> 01:14:09.520
Star Sir Cedric Hardwick. This is Harlow Wilcox speaking for Autolite,

1078
01:14:09.640 --> 01:14:14.760
world's largest independent manufacturer of automotive electrical equipment. Autolite is

1079
01:14:14.840 --> 01:14:17.960
proud to serve the greatest names in the industry. They

1080
01:14:18.000 --> 01:14:20.880
are members of the Autolite Family, as are the ninety

1081
01:14:20.880 --> 01:14:24.039
eight thousand Autolite distributors and dealers in the United States

1082
01:14:24.359 --> 01:14:27.960
and thousands more in Canada and throughout the world. Our

1083
01:14:28.039 --> 01:14:30.960

1084
01:14:31.079 --> 01:14:33.720

1085
01:14:34.279 --> 01:14:37.279
and in still other autolite plants in many foreign countries,

1086
01:14:37.720 --> 01:14:41.000
as well as the eighteen thousand people who have invested

1087
01:14:41.039 --> 01:14:45.039
a portion of their savings in Autolite. Every Autolite product

1088
01:14:45.159 --> 01:14:48.640

1090
01:14:53.199 --> 01:15:05.720
to tail light, you're always right with Autolite. South Spence,

You can buy auto light electrical parts, auto light stayful

Autolight dealers switch to autolite good night.

1102
01:15:56.319 --> 01:15:58.479
This is the CBS Radio Network.

1103
01:16:14.760 --> 01:16:20.840
Well, my dear, was that some interesting reading or what?

1104
01:16:22.880 --> 01:16:23.119
Well?

1105
01:16:24.560 --> 01:16:29.319
I suppose the fire is dimming a bit, the air

1106
01:16:29.600 --> 01:16:35.760
is cooler. These walls are thick, but not necessarily built

1107
01:16:35.840 --> 01:16:43.640
for heat retention. I'll grab another log while I do that.

1108
01:16:44.079 --> 01:16:47.399
Why don't you take a moment to freshen up your teeth.

1109
01:16:48.439 --> 01:16:53.600
Make sure you're comfortable in my chair, and soon you'll

1110
01:16:53.640 --> 01:17:01.079
be relaxed and calm like your barrel. Down the track

1111
01:17:01.960 --> 01:17:07.520
on the four fifteen Express, ah.

1112
01:17:08.119 --> 01:17:11.800
An elm blows away the peasant and returns the man's mind.

1113
01:17:11.880 --> 01:17:15.239
In the Horrors of a World gone By, listen to

1114
01:17:15.399 --> 01:17:39.399
the Weird Circle Out of the Past. Phantams of the

World gone By, Speak again, the Immortal Tale the four

1116
01:17:44.680 --> 01:17:56.000
fifteen Express. This is a report to the Acting Chairman

1117
01:17:56.079 --> 01:17:59.720
of the East Anglian Railroad Company from William Langford, special Agent,

1118
01:18:00.600 --> 01:18:04.239
return from Russia, per your instructions to investigate one John

1119
01:18:04.319 --> 01:18:07.800
Dwerryhouse and a matter of seventy five thousand ponds missing

1120
01:18:07.880 --> 01:18:11.680
from the East Anglian Railroad. I learned that Dwerryhouse was

1121
01:18:11.680 --> 01:18:15.479
preparing to leave Friday October fourteenth on the four fifteen

1122
01:18:15.520 --> 01:18:18.399
Express to Klaber. I made plans to be on the

1123
01:18:18.399 --> 01:18:21.439
same train by arranging with my friends the JEMs, to

1124
01:18:21.560 --> 01:18:24.439
spend the week end with them. In camera. Arrived at

1125
01:18:24.479 --> 01:18:27.439
London station and as I was standing just outside of

1126
01:18:27.479 --> 01:18:34.319
the train, I am a Winter Langford.

1127
01:18:34.479 --> 01:18:36.520
For what are you doing here? The last I heard

1128
01:18:36.560 --> 01:18:38.119
of you was when you were in Russia.

1129
01:18:38.199 --> 01:18:40.720
Weren't you very definitely in Russia? I could tell by

1130
01:18:40.760 --> 01:18:43.840
the snow. I arrived back in London only last week, Bill.

1131
01:18:43.720 --> 01:18:45.800
Langford, I'd like to leave my mother, Missus Winters.

1132
01:18:45.880 --> 01:18:48.199
Oh, how do you do, Missus Winters? How you do?

1133
01:18:50.520 --> 01:18:50.720
Oh?

1134
01:18:50.840 --> 01:18:53.840
My hate fever? Trains give me hay fever every time?

1135
01:18:54.399 --> 01:18:56.880
Say how's the Russian climate? For hay fever sufferers?

1136
01:18:57.039 --> 01:19:01.000
Just about the same as everywhere else, not like London.

1137
01:19:01.079 --> 01:19:03.319
There ought to be a law against London window. It's

1138
01:19:03.319 --> 01:19:04.000
where are you headed for?

1139
01:19:04.159 --> 01:19:06.800
Bill clay Brown. I'm going to spend the holidays with

1140
01:19:06.880 --> 01:19:10.039
Pete Jail, but this country pairs down there. His wife, Lydia,

1141
01:19:10.159 --> 01:19:12.760
is London just now. It's a matter of fact. She's

1142
01:19:12.760 --> 01:19:14.800
supposed to take the trend down with me. And do

1143
01:19:14.840 --> 01:19:15.199
you know her?

1144
01:19:15.399 --> 01:19:17.239
I met her last winter during the social world.

1145
01:19:17.439 --> 01:19:19.960
Oh then why don't you John, it's my compartment leader.

1146
01:19:20.039 --> 01:19:22.319
Oh i'd love to What compartment will you be in?

1147
01:19:22.760 --> 01:19:23.479
Forty two eight?

1148
01:19:24.039 --> 01:19:24.319
Really?

1149
01:19:25.720 --> 01:19:27.760
What's so surprising about forty two eights?

1150
01:19:27.800 --> 01:19:30.119
So they usually don't use it. It's supposed to be

1151
01:19:30.680 --> 01:19:35.560
you laugh at me, but it's haunted. Ghosts make me sneeze.

1152
01:19:37.199 --> 01:19:40.359
Tell me, how do you know compartment forty two is haunted?

1153
01:19:40.479 --> 01:19:42.359
Will they say a man was killed there ten years ago?

1154
01:19:42.600 --> 01:19:45.720
His name was Joel's And there's rather angry spirit yourself.

1155
01:19:45.760 --> 01:19:48.800
He's supposedly lingering around for the purpose of scaring people.

1156
01:19:48.560 --> 01:19:50.800
Out of there with that's fine, just fine.

1157
01:19:50.920 --> 01:19:52.960
High compartments in the same car, just as the line,

1158
01:19:53.039 --> 01:19:55.279
I'll drop and see you later after get mother's yes.

1159
01:19:55.359 --> 01:19:55.560
Do that.

1160
01:19:56.199 --> 01:19:57.600
Gosh. I hope Lydia makes the training.

1161
01:19:57.840 --> 01:19:58.680
She probably won't.

1162
01:19:58.800 --> 01:19:59.640
You're so right.

1163
01:20:00.079 --> 01:20:02.000
You see the ghost, ask my stick around. I'd like

1164
01:20:02.079 --> 01:20:02.520
to meet it.

1165
01:20:02.680 --> 01:20:09.680
Oh, jon't pitch. See you later, Diana. We better get

1166
01:20:09.720 --> 01:20:13.239
in bye. Well, it's going to be a dreary trip

1167
01:20:13.560 --> 01:20:15.279
me and a ghost sharing a compartment.

1168
01:20:17.199 --> 01:20:17.319
Oh.

1169
01:20:18.079 --> 01:20:20.640
Oh, hello, I didn't know I was going to have

1170
01:20:20.680 --> 01:20:24.000
a companion in forty two A. Something strange about a

1171
01:20:24.039 --> 01:20:27.840
companion forty two A. No, it's it's just that I

1172
01:20:27.920 --> 01:20:47.319
expected to see a ghost. Oh, ex usual, Lydia missed

1173
01:20:47.319 --> 01:20:49.439
the trend. I was afraid she would.

1174
01:20:50.640 --> 01:20:52.199
Did you say something? No?

1175
01:20:52.640 --> 01:20:56.600
No, nothing. Oh, by the way, the names language Bill language, Sir,

1176
01:20:56.720 --> 01:21:06.760
and yours h Jones, John Jones, Jones Jones. Oh something

1177
01:21:06.840 --> 01:21:09.399
the matter with the name Jones? No? No, is there?

1178
01:21:10.560 --> 01:21:13.960
No one meets so many Jones these days.

1179
01:21:14.680 --> 01:21:15.119
There's one.

1180
01:21:15.760 --> 01:21:20.439
Yes, one does. Oh it's a chance that you weren't

1181
01:21:20.520 --> 01:21:23.439
very certain of it. I see that you've just come

1182
01:21:23.479 --> 01:21:25.520
back from Russia. Oh, how did you know that the

1183
01:21:25.720 --> 01:21:30.079
labeled on your suitcase. I've done some extensive traveling myself. Hell,

1184
01:21:30.199 --> 01:21:33.359
you're very discerning, mister Jones. I'm a collector of curios

1185
01:21:33.920 --> 01:21:36.119
a hobby, you all, I picked up quite a few

1186
01:21:36.199 --> 01:21:37.399
interesting things in Russia.

1187
01:21:37.920 --> 01:21:38.199
Really.

1188
01:21:38.560 --> 01:21:40.560
Oh, then I have something that would probably interest you

1189
01:21:40.680 --> 01:21:43.119
that I got there. Oh, it's a gift for a

1190
01:21:43.159 --> 01:21:46.079
friend of mine. It was an ancient classic money wallet

1191
01:21:46.159 --> 01:21:48.359
which has now been compared to a cigarette case. Oh,

1192
01:21:48.960 --> 01:21:49.520
very interesting.

1193
01:21:50.439 --> 01:21:51.359
Have you got it on you?

1194
01:21:51.760 --> 01:21:54.680
Yes, of course it's wrapped up, but I can unwrap it.

1195
01:21:54.880 --> 01:22:02.399
It's in my pocket here it is, Oh, say, it's

1196
01:22:02.560 --> 01:22:04.720
very interesting. May I examine it?

1197
01:22:04.840 --> 01:22:04.960
Oh?

1198
01:22:05.119 --> 01:22:09.439
Yes, of course you may tremendous thing to carry about.

1199
01:22:10.640 --> 01:22:15.600
The money must have gone in here in the back flap. Yes, yes,

1200
01:22:15.640 --> 01:22:20.760
it did, sort of combination wallet and cigarette case. Well,

1201
01:22:21.159 --> 01:22:23.239
except if you ever put money in there, you'd have

1202
01:22:23.239 --> 01:22:25.159
a devil of a time fishing it out. Quite right,

1203
01:22:25.319 --> 01:22:25.720
Quite right.

1204
01:22:26.800 --> 01:22:27.039
You know.

1205
01:22:27.239 --> 01:22:29.239
It's an old Russian custom to put a cigarette in

1206
01:22:29.279 --> 01:22:31.359
a new cigarette case before giving it to anyone. So

1207
01:22:31.479 --> 01:22:34.239
really I didn't know that. Yes, here, let me put

1208
01:22:34.279 --> 01:22:35.239
one of mine in for it.

1209
01:22:36.159 --> 01:22:36.439
Thank you.

1210
01:22:38.159 --> 01:22:41.640
You are a special brand of cigarette for a special case.

1211
01:22:42.520 --> 01:22:45.840
Mustn't mind my hand. I'm particularly jump at the see nervous.

1212
01:22:45.880 --> 01:22:46.000
You know.

1213
01:22:46.800 --> 01:22:50.399
Here's your case, sir, Thank you. I'll wrap it up again,

1214
01:22:53.159 --> 01:22:56.640
Mike is getting cracked. Our little store is what I need.

1215
01:22:57.000 --> 01:22:59.600
Would you mind watching my suitcase for me? I'll be

1216
01:22:59.640 --> 01:23:03.600
back in a second. Certainly, mister Jones. These compartment trains

1217
01:23:03.640 --> 01:23:06.319
are such narrow aisles. Really, isn't just told at all,

1218
01:23:07.039 --> 01:23:14.880
like pushing through a tunnel. Hmm, cur your pillow, cool, Jill,

1219
01:23:15.520 --> 01:23:20.960
Wait until I tell him his wife missed the train. Hello, Bill,

1220
01:23:21.239 --> 01:23:22.239
come on in, Diana.

1221
01:23:22.479 --> 01:23:24.239
Thanks, I got mother comfortably settled.

1222
01:23:24.279 --> 01:23:29.000
Finally, Oh, mister train. Unless he's in another compartment and

1223
01:23:29.159 --> 01:23:33.000
I'm not up to hunting for I don't blame you well, Diana.

1224
01:23:33.039 --> 01:23:35.000
I see you know the man who shares my compartment

1225
01:23:35.079 --> 01:23:38.479
with me, mister Jones, do I yes, you chat it

1226
01:23:38.520 --> 01:23:39.359
with him in the hallway.

1227
01:23:39.760 --> 01:23:41.800
I talked to the man in the next compartment.

1228
01:23:42.039 --> 01:23:44.960
All right, I thought I heard you talk to Jones.

1229
01:23:45.159 --> 01:23:47.600
No, that's the man the next compartment. His name is

1230
01:23:47.600 --> 01:23:48.399
Augustus Rakes.

1231
01:23:48.560 --> 01:23:49.079
You know him.

1232
01:23:49.880 --> 01:23:54.720
But did you pass a man coming through? No, that's impossible.

1233
01:23:54.880 --> 01:23:59.359
Why because John Jones got up and left the compartment

1234
01:23:59.439 --> 01:24:02.960
as you came. Then I heard you talk to water.

1235
01:24:03.920 --> 01:24:06.520
Let's big go out and try and get him. I'm

1236
01:24:06.600 --> 01:24:10.039
not going crazy yet, mister Jones and mister Jones.

1237
01:24:10.760 --> 01:24:13.479
Mister Jones, mister Jones.

1238
01:24:16.920 --> 01:24:20.960
Positively. Well, if you don't believe me, don't get so excited.

1239
01:24:21.000 --> 01:24:21.239
Bill.

1240
01:24:21.520 --> 01:24:24.039
If you say he was here, it was here. I

1241
01:24:24.159 --> 01:24:25.960
might have miss him coming through, but you couldn't have

1242
01:24:26.039 --> 01:24:26.439
missed him.

1243
01:24:26.720 --> 01:24:29.399
He left just as you came in, his suitcases right off, my.

1244
01:24:31.920 --> 01:24:32.840
But it was there.

1245
01:24:33.720 --> 01:24:34.479
I knew it was there.

1246
01:24:34.760 --> 01:24:35.800
I remember his putting it.

1247
01:24:36.119 --> 01:24:39.279
Maybe you saw the ghost. Oh Bill, how unfair of you.

1248
01:24:39.399 --> 01:24:40.600
You told me you'd told him if.

1249
01:24:40.520 --> 01:24:41.239
You found him.

1250
01:24:41.399 --> 01:24:46.760
Ghost, Diana, I swing, when did you get him?

1251
01:24:46.760 --> 01:24:49.760
The tree was too too dreadful?

1252
01:24:50.199 --> 01:24:51.399
Oh left me every time.

1253
01:24:52.239 --> 01:24:53.600
Hello Diana, Hello Vidio.

1254
01:24:53.840 --> 01:24:56.720
How are you congested? But then everybody's congested this year.

1255
01:24:56.720 --> 01:25:00.840
It's fashionable, Phil, it's been gashly. Just yeah, I searched

1256
01:25:00.960 --> 01:25:02.000
everything this compartment, but.

1257
01:25:02.039 --> 01:25:06.199
To try looking for you, Olidia, did you pass a

1258
01:25:06.279 --> 01:25:07.760
man on the hall as you came through.

1259
01:25:08.039 --> 01:25:08.760
I'm marry.

1260
01:25:09.399 --> 01:25:11.880
I mean in this car with a gray tweet suit

1261
01:25:12.000 --> 01:25:15.199
and red tie, sort of an old fashioned bowler, had mustache,

1262
01:25:15.319 --> 01:25:16.600
very heavy mustache.

1263
01:25:16.279 --> 01:25:18.720
Now and he walked to the limb of honesty.

1264
01:25:18.720 --> 01:25:18.920
Feil.

1265
01:25:18.960 --> 01:25:20.239
I haven't had anybody in this train.

1266
01:25:20.319 --> 01:25:24.279
The last three cars everybody was sitting down. I did

1267
01:25:24.560 --> 01:25:26.680
pass a lot of men way up our hole.

1268
01:25:27.960 --> 01:25:29.600
No, he wouldn't have had time to walk up more

1269
01:25:29.640 --> 01:25:34.680
than two cars by the time. Diana, are you positive? Absolutely?

1270
01:25:35.079 --> 01:25:38.279
You don't believe me or somebody else. Try Augustus Rakes

1271
01:25:38.279 --> 01:25:39.079
the next compartment.

1272
01:25:39.399 --> 01:25:41.600
I don't mind if I do. Pardon me for a moment,

1273
01:25:41.640 --> 01:25:42.720
will you No, I haven't seen you.

1274
01:25:43.680 --> 01:25:44.760
Yes, it's been a very long time.

1275
01:25:45.479 --> 01:25:46.600
Don't you like to see none?

1276
01:25:46.720 --> 01:25:47.680
Last was all right.

1277
01:25:47.880 --> 01:25:49.680
I don't do much the social world.

1278
01:25:54.279 --> 01:25:57.479
Mister Rakes. Yes, I know you don't know me, but

1279
01:25:58.319 --> 01:26:03.960
I'm bill lanked for the friend of Diana Winters. I'm

1280
01:26:04.079 --> 01:26:06.359
just looking for the help for the man who shares

1281
01:26:06.399 --> 01:26:09.359
my compartment. He walked down the passageway a few minutes

1282
01:26:09.399 --> 01:26:12.600
ago and seems to have disappeared. He passed by your window.

1283
01:26:12.760 --> 01:26:15.960
Nobody, but two women have passed by, a Diana Winters

1284
01:26:16.039 --> 01:26:16.960
and another girl.

1285
01:26:17.640 --> 01:26:20.319
I saw him walk towards your compartment. At least he

1286
01:26:20.680 --> 01:26:21.600
turned in your direction.

1287
01:26:21.880 --> 01:26:22.760
I wouldn't be sure.

1288
01:26:22.800 --> 01:26:25.439
Of course, I might have been looking in the other direction,

1289
01:26:26.039 --> 01:26:28.279
but I didn't see anybody.

1290
01:26:29.439 --> 01:26:32.520
Oh, thanks, Do you know who's in the compartment next

1291
01:26:32.560 --> 01:26:32.640
to you?

1292
01:26:33.039 --> 01:26:33.079
No?

1293
01:26:33.600 --> 01:26:36.359
No, I don't can I might just as well ask them,

1294
01:26:36.479 --> 01:26:39.319
of course, of course do. And if I can help

1295
01:26:39.359 --> 01:26:40.399
you find your friend.

1296
01:26:40.760 --> 01:26:41.079
Call on.

1297
01:26:45.000 --> 01:26:45.640
That's strange.

1298
01:26:46.800 --> 01:26:47.439
I wonder.

1299
01:26:49.880 --> 01:26:56.520
There's four people in this compartment. I'm sorry everybody, but

1300
01:26:56.600 --> 01:26:59.640
a friend of mine has disappeared. Did anybody see a

1301
01:26:59.720 --> 01:27:01.800
man in a gray suit passed this way about ten

1302
01:27:01.840 --> 01:27:05.199
minutes ago? Gray suit and red tie or a hat, mustache?

1303
01:27:05.520 --> 01:27:05.560
No?

1304
01:27:06.479 --> 01:27:07.680
No, I was looking out the window.

1305
01:27:07.760 --> 01:27:08.880
I was sleeping, not me.

1306
01:27:09.199 --> 01:27:10.840
I was standing at the door. And it's certainly a

1307
01:27:10.920 --> 01:27:13.760
seen in standing at the door for the past ten minutes,

1308
01:27:13.920 --> 01:27:16.720
rather all the time right at the door. I did

1309
01:27:16.880 --> 01:27:19.840
see two women pass. How about you, mister?

1310
01:27:20.199 --> 01:27:20.359
Oh?

1311
01:27:20.520 --> 01:27:23.319
Me, I didn't see nothing. What you gotta do about it?

1312
01:27:23.600 --> 01:27:25.760
Well, I'm just curious. My name's Farrow.

1313
01:27:25.960 --> 01:27:28.199
I'm a price fighter, mister, and if you got any

1314
01:27:28.239 --> 01:27:30.680
difference of opinion with me, I'd be glad to discuss.

1315
01:27:30.359 --> 01:27:34.199
It with you in my way. Oh, no difference at all, hm,

1316
01:27:34.399 --> 01:27:37.079
I guess I'd better forget the whole thing, return to

1317
01:27:37.159 --> 01:27:42.640
my compartment and relaxes.

1318
01:27:42.720 --> 01:27:46.399
Do that, I know, But I wonder he was so

1319
01:27:46.560 --> 01:27:47.039
certain of it?

1320
01:27:47.119 --> 01:27:49.720
Lydia trying the thing I've ever heard, because everybody knows

1321
01:27:49.800 --> 01:27:51.039
the standing nice horners.

1322
01:27:51.199 --> 01:27:53.439
Well, at least that's what they say. Oh hello, Bill,

1323
01:27:53.920 --> 01:27:55.319
finally trace of your.

1324
01:27:55.279 --> 01:27:58.880
Ghost, No trace at all. It disappeared in the face

1325
01:27:58.920 --> 01:28:01.039
of the earth. That's if you were here at all.

1326
01:28:01.199 --> 01:28:02.079
Oh, come, come.

1327
01:28:02.319 --> 01:28:03.960
You don't believe that story about ghosts?

1328
01:28:04.000 --> 01:28:08.319
I told you maybe only if John Jones was a ghost.

1329
01:28:08.359 --> 01:28:11.720
He was the strangest ghost I ever met. And somehow

1330
01:28:11.760 --> 01:28:13.800
I just don't believe.

1331
01:29:08.600 --> 01:29:11.079
Well, Bill, if John Jones was on this train, you'll

1332
01:29:11.079 --> 01:29:13.319
come back. I did you get so excited about.

1333
01:29:13.279 --> 01:29:15.800
Nothing to get excited about? The bloke vanishes in front

1334
01:29:15.840 --> 01:29:17.000
of my eyes. And I'm supposed to.

1335
01:29:16.960 --> 01:29:19.279
Be calm who goes to such fun Bill, And not

1336
01:29:19.439 --> 01:29:22.199
that I've ever an our life, But we can those

1337
01:29:22.239 --> 01:29:22.880
party last.

1338
01:29:22.800 --> 01:29:28.720
Year as the crossed tickets. Let me see missus Jove

1339
01:29:28.880 --> 01:29:32.439
in this compartment and a mister Langford him, missus Jolf.

1340
01:29:32.479 --> 01:29:32.880
Here you are.

1341
01:29:33.000 --> 01:29:35.600
I'm miss Winters. I'm a compartment three down the line.

1342
01:29:35.800 --> 01:29:36.840
My mother has my ticket.

1343
01:29:36.960 --> 01:29:40.720
Mm hm, quite so, madam. And about you, mister Langford,

1344
01:29:40.760 --> 01:29:43.640
Oh here you are, conductor. Have you got a list

1345
01:29:43.680 --> 01:29:46.279
of reservations in this car? East Dangling in Line has

1346
01:29:46.319 --> 01:29:49.720
a policy of always reserving all seats in advance. Good

1347
01:29:49.840 --> 01:29:52.479
have you got that list with you? Naturally? How many

1348
01:29:52.520 --> 01:29:55.319
people are supposed to be traveling in this compartment too,

1349
01:29:55.640 --> 01:29:58.920
missus Peter jovin In, mister Langford, I believe that's what

1350
01:29:59.079 --> 01:30:03.239
I just said. Mm hmm, haw by mister Jones. No, no,

1351
01:30:03.560 --> 01:30:07.640
mister Jones. There's been only one mister Jones on this line.

1352
01:30:08.560 --> 01:30:11.399
He died at this compartment ten years ago and it's

1353
01:30:11.439 --> 01:30:13.680
been a ghost ever since. Well, I tell you a

1354
01:30:13.840 --> 01:30:16.079
very flesh and blood. John Jones was sitting with me

1355
01:30:16.159 --> 01:30:19.000
earlier this evening. Yes, I even got a cigarette. He

1356
01:30:19.039 --> 01:30:22.399
gave me. It's a special brandt to hear my cigarette case?

1357
01:30:22.439 --> 01:30:24.760
What and what cigarette case?

1358
01:30:25.199 --> 01:30:25.680
Right in here?

1359
01:30:25.800 --> 01:30:31.039
Conductor? This is really a present. I bought your husband video. Yes,

1360
01:30:31.359 --> 01:30:34.560
Russian curio, tremendous thing. I showed it to Jones and

1361
01:30:34.720 --> 01:30:35.720
he put a cigarette.

1362
01:30:36.079 --> 01:30:36.720
How cute.

1363
01:30:37.039 --> 01:30:41.199
Let's see you are cigarette here? I want to see, Diane.

1364
01:30:41.319 --> 01:30:42.720
I'd love to What.

1365
01:30:42.840 --> 01:30:43.680
Does this prove?

1366
01:30:43.760 --> 01:30:43.960
Bill?

1367
01:30:44.439 --> 01:30:48.760
Well? I don't smoke, and mister Jones gave it to me.

1368
01:30:48.840 --> 01:30:49.079
Hmm.

1369
01:30:49.680 --> 01:30:52.920
You'll either seen a cigarette smoking ghosts, mister, or perhaps

1370
01:30:52.960 --> 01:30:57.880
you need a long rest. Tickets please ticket I'm not

1371
01:30:58.159 --> 01:31:00.600
crazy Russia. Yah for you.

1372
01:31:00.920 --> 01:31:02.439
I know of a person who lived in lash one

1373
01:31:02.479 --> 01:31:04.239
who killed his marvel or two years later?

1374
01:31:04.880 --> 01:31:06.800
May I have my cigarette? Kiss back, Lydia.

1375
01:31:06.800 --> 01:31:08.920
I'm sorry through looking at it down?

1376
01:31:09.159 --> 01:31:12.199
No sure, I wonder how mother's getting along. I better

1377
01:31:12.279 --> 01:31:13.000
go back and see her.

1378
01:31:13.039 --> 01:31:14.960
Oh, I've gotten the cornder with you. I want to

1379
01:31:15.039 --> 01:31:18.600
drop back to the smoking compartment. Perhaps sir mister Jones

1380
01:31:18.640 --> 01:31:19.159
is back there?

1381
01:31:19.439 --> 01:31:26.039
Good place for a cigarette smoking ghosts? Hello, Augustus Rakes,

1382
01:31:26.199 --> 01:31:27.399
still standing in the corridor.

1383
01:31:27.640 --> 01:31:29.279
I get restless sitting down, Diana.

1384
01:31:29.680 --> 01:31:31.079
So I want you to meet a friend of mine,

1385
01:31:31.319 --> 01:31:33.079
Augustus Rakes. This is Lydia, Joe.

1386
01:31:33.319 --> 01:31:33.840
How do you do it?

1387
01:31:34.039 --> 01:31:37.079
Hello? I'll see you folks later. I'm going to take

1388
01:31:37.079 --> 01:31:39.479
a quick look at the smoking compartment and what for

1389
01:31:39.640 --> 01:31:42.279
mister Langford. Well, believe it or not. For a ghost

1390
01:31:42.560 --> 01:31:45.119
and I'm not kidding. Maybe the ghost Israel and I'm

1391
01:31:45.199 --> 01:31:45.880
kidding myself.

1392
01:31:46.079 --> 01:31:47.720
Who knows? Uh?

1393
01:31:47.960 --> 01:31:51.319
This is the smoking compartment? I guess May I get by?

1394
01:31:51.520 --> 01:31:54.319
Oh sure, conductor, wait till I take a deep breath.

1395
01:31:55.960 --> 01:31:59.359
Where are you going to the smoking compartment? Any objection? No,

1396
01:32:00.079 --> 01:32:01.960
none that I can think of. At any rate. I

1397
01:32:02.039 --> 01:32:04.920
wish I had a little cooperation. You don't need cooperation,

1398
01:32:05.079 --> 01:32:08.960
so you'll need a long rest as I'll see you later,

1399
01:32:09.279 --> 01:32:14.720
mister Langford, I can't wait. Well, this isn't the strangers

1400
01:32:14.800 --> 01:32:18.520
set up. I'm positive I saw Jones and not a ghost.

1401
01:32:19.359 --> 01:32:22.479
M Well, I don't know. The last possible place he

1402
01:32:22.520 --> 01:32:25.840
could be would be the h It must be this,

1403
01:32:26.000 --> 01:32:34.840
Dom Jones, Jones, Jones, my name's not Jones. You know

1404
01:32:34.960 --> 01:32:38.960
that language. They they helped me like that. I know

1405
01:32:39.000 --> 01:32:42.159
who you are, mister Johns. The money, the money, it's safe.

1406
01:32:42.560 --> 01:32:44.000
I saw you stick in my wallet when you put

1407
01:32:44.000 --> 01:32:46.279
the cigarette in there, How did you expect to get

1408
01:32:46.319 --> 01:32:46.600
it back?

1409
01:32:47.039 --> 01:32:47.720
I was going to.

1410
01:32:47.800 --> 01:32:51.319
Borrow my cigarette back the minute I saw they were

1411
01:32:51.399 --> 01:32:53.840
on the train. I knew it was dangerous to carry

1412
01:32:53.880 --> 01:32:56.439
it with me. Yeah, let me help you get out

1413
01:32:56.439 --> 01:32:57.720
of here. The lights have gone out.

1414
01:32:58.399 --> 01:33:08.880
Why now, but you mister John Jones Werry House, You're

1415
01:33:08.920 --> 01:33:11.079
going to be a real ghost if you don't start talking.

1416
01:33:11.880 --> 01:33:13.399
Where is that money?

1417
01:33:22.560 --> 01:33:25.079
Your mother always likes to exercise on train's lydia. I

1418
01:33:25.119 --> 01:33:25.960
wouldn't worry about it.

1419
01:33:25.960 --> 01:33:28.720
I don't like the way he would keep disappearing. Your

1420
01:33:28.840 --> 01:33:30.800
father and villain, and there's that girl.

1421
01:33:30.960 --> 01:33:32.560
Well, if you're so worried about Bill will send the

1422
01:33:32.560 --> 01:33:34.079
conductor of the smoking compartment for it.

1423
01:33:34.279 --> 01:33:35.359
I am worried about him.

1424
01:33:35.359 --> 01:33:38.199
He's not well, that's our host. Stop at Lydia while

1425
01:33:38.239 --> 01:33:39.479
I press the button for the conductor.

1426
01:33:39.600 --> 01:33:41.439
There always was a little.

1427
01:33:41.439 --> 01:33:43.880
Well, shall we say unsound at times?

1428
01:33:44.840 --> 01:33:46.960
Hello, Lydia, Joe Fellah?

1429
01:33:47.079 --> 01:33:48.920
How nice is a pharaoh?

1430
01:33:49.039 --> 01:33:52.319
Meet Diana Winters Fellah's a cross Friday Diana and the

1431
01:33:52.479 --> 01:33:53.399
most exciting one?

1432
01:33:53.880 --> 01:33:54.520
Have you seen there?

1433
01:33:54.520 --> 01:33:54.640
Oh?

1434
01:33:54.680 --> 01:33:55.039
How do you do?

1435
01:33:55.399 --> 01:33:55.640
Hello?

1436
01:33:55.760 --> 01:33:56.199
Good looking?

1437
01:33:56.359 --> 01:33:58.680
Oh you look just the way Jelf looks every time.

1438
01:33:58.720 --> 01:33:59.479
I loves Dina.

1439
01:34:00.760 --> 01:34:01.760
What are you doing in this train?

1440
01:34:01.880 --> 01:34:02.000
Far?

1441
01:34:02.039 --> 01:34:03.039
I didn't expect see you.

1442
01:34:03.279 --> 01:34:05.640
If you don't ask questions, Missus Jelf, you don't get no.

1443
01:34:05.760 --> 01:34:09.000
Lies words and never spoken where they die?

1444
01:34:09.159 --> 01:34:09.720
I wouldn't know.

1445
01:34:10.199 --> 01:34:12.199
Ladies, did you call for me as conductor?

1446
01:34:12.239 --> 01:34:14.720
I'm worried about missus Langford. He went to the smoking

1447
01:34:14.760 --> 01:34:16.600
department a half hour ago, and he hasn't it too?

1448
01:34:17.039 --> 01:34:19.960
Perhaps he's disappeared, disappeared so soon?

1449
01:34:20.359 --> 01:34:22.000
Yes knowing, don't you fair?

1450
01:34:22.399 --> 01:34:23.840
Maybe I do and maybe I don't.

1451
01:34:23.880 --> 01:34:26.479
And Lydia stop star gazing out that open window.

1452
01:34:28.079 --> 01:34:28.920
That star gazing.

1453
01:34:30.920 --> 01:34:31.560
It's an upside.

1454
01:34:31.600 --> 01:34:32.239
Don't face.

1455
01:34:33.800 --> 01:34:34.279
At the smoke.

1456
01:34:34.319 --> 01:34:45.800
I'm looking at you, all.

1457
01:34:45.800 --> 01:34:48.600
Right, missus delf who just stay seated here and missus

1458
01:34:48.640 --> 01:34:52.479
Winter's compartment. I saw the coast conduction. Maybe you didn't.

1459
01:34:52.760 --> 01:34:55.399
Maybe you didn't say what's going on in here? Diana?

1460
01:34:55.439 --> 01:34:58.039
You'll come in augustus Lydia claims she saw a ghost,

1461
01:34:58.239 --> 01:34:59.960
a mate suspended outside the window.

1462
01:35:00.000 --> 01:35:05.680
Nonsense, there are no ghosts, missus Kew. I'll come along, gentlemen.

1463
01:35:05.920 --> 01:35:10.319
Langford had disappeared. Now follow me. They say last said

1464
01:35:10.359 --> 01:35:18.279
he was going into smoking compartment. Well here we are,

1465
01:35:20.079 --> 01:35:23.039
come in, gentlemen, Langford.

1466
01:35:23.199 --> 01:35:31.560
Look, conductor, my word, Well missus Winters, she she's dead, dead.

1467
01:35:31.439 --> 01:35:34.600
As a dormouse, and Langford isn't anywhere wrong.

1468
01:35:34.920 --> 01:35:37.319
Langford probably killed her and then skipped off the train.

1469
01:35:37.640 --> 01:35:40.319
Don't you agree, mister Rakes, What what makes you say that?

1470
01:35:40.439 --> 01:35:40.720
Barrow?

1471
01:35:40.760 --> 01:35:41.600
The windows open?

1472
01:35:42.119 --> 01:35:43.199
The window is open.

1473
01:35:43.840 --> 01:35:46.640
Come on, conductor, give me a hand with Missus Winters.

1474
01:35:47.039 --> 01:35:48.600
We've got to break the bad newster Diana.

1475
01:35:48.680 --> 01:35:52.199
Sooner or later. Yes, quite right, mister rasp right, I'll help.

1476
01:35:52.119 --> 01:35:52.640
You carry her.

1477
01:35:52.840 --> 01:35:56.119
Imagine anybody bumping off a nice ould lady.

1478
01:35:56.119 --> 01:35:59.359
Whoever did it used a nice long knife in her back.

1479
01:35:59.520 --> 01:36:03.199
Maybe the ghost don't kill people, They just scare them.

1480
01:36:04.159 --> 01:36:06.760
Come on, mister Riggs will get a carrier back.

1481
01:36:17.520 --> 01:36:19.720
Why in the world did anyone want to kill mom?

1482
01:36:20.800 --> 01:36:22.039
Raig? Did you did? I?

1483
01:36:22.800 --> 01:36:22.840
What?

1484
01:36:23.159 --> 01:36:26.720
Diana? What do we do about Langford? Conductor? If you're

1485
01:36:26.800 --> 01:36:28.479
not a warrant for the rest? As soon as the

1486
01:36:28.560 --> 01:36:31.399
train stops. I don't know why he did it, but

1487
01:36:31.680 --> 01:36:33.760
we'll find out. If I ever see him again, I'll

1488
01:36:33.840 --> 01:36:34.560
punch his face.

1489
01:36:35.239 --> 01:36:37.239
Still Lengthford climbing down from the top of the.

1490
01:36:37.279 --> 01:36:38.319
Car and the window.

1491
01:36:38.520 --> 01:36:40.840
All right, all of you keep your hands raised, blagging

1492
01:36:40.880 --> 01:36:43.680
in this window. Oh, it's no use, Langford. We know

1493
01:36:43.920 --> 01:36:46.840
you killed missus Winter. Keep them up, Conductor, keep them up,

1494
01:36:47.319 --> 01:36:50.680
and you ricks. Don't pull any funny business call watch

1495
01:36:50.720 --> 01:36:52.479
you sure a boss, boss? Sure?

1496
01:36:52.720 --> 01:36:54.840
I've worked for the Langford. I've worked for Bill for

1497
01:36:54.920 --> 01:36:57.079
eight years, ever since he picked me up in America

1498
01:36:57.119 --> 01:36:58.119
when I was a fun.

1499
01:36:59.199 --> 01:37:02.199
You murderer, Let me go.

1500
01:37:02.319 --> 01:37:04.359
Don't try to escape right a wrong guy?

1501
01:37:04.479 --> 01:37:05.279
Do I have to prove it?

1502
01:37:05.720 --> 01:37:08.199
Both of you's been rather a long time in jail

1503
01:37:08.319 --> 01:37:12.199
for this. No, I won't conduct her. Augustus Rakes might,

1504
01:37:12.279 --> 01:37:12.720
but I won't.

1505
01:37:12.800 --> 01:37:15.399
You doesn't mind let me know what are you talking about?

1506
01:37:15.600 --> 01:37:18.199
You too, Diana, That wasn't John Jones and my compartment,

1507
01:37:18.239 --> 01:37:21.039
as you both know, it was John dwellyhas, director of

1508
01:37:21.039 --> 01:37:23.880
the East Anglian Line Traveling and cognito. He was carrying

1509
01:37:23.920 --> 01:37:26.199
seventy five thousand punds on tonight. What makes you so

1510
01:37:26.319 --> 01:37:28.239
wise like hud because I saw him slip the roll

1511
01:37:28.279 --> 01:37:31.319
into my cigarette case. He walked into your compartment by

1512
01:37:31.359 --> 01:37:34.439
exident Rakes to get away from me. You s bookkeeper

1513
01:37:34.520 --> 01:37:36.680
of the East Anglian Line, were the only one who

1514
01:37:36.720 --> 01:37:38.640
knew he had taken the money. Eric come, yeah, So

1515
01:37:38.760 --> 01:37:41.279
you held him up and when you discovered he wasn't

1516
01:37:41.279 --> 01:37:43.479
carrying the money on him, you're knocked him on. I

1517
01:37:43.560 --> 01:37:45.920
would have known the house if i'd seen him.

1518
01:37:45.840 --> 01:37:46.479
Mister Lane would.

1519
01:37:46.479 --> 01:37:49.279
In fact, anybody on the entire line would have known him.

1520
01:37:49.800 --> 01:37:52.279
He disappeared before you collected tickets. He didn't need a

1521
01:37:52.319 --> 01:37:56.279
ticket or a reservation. He owns this company. And you, Diana,

1522
01:37:56.920 --> 01:37:59.399
you're a Rake's girl. That fast trick. If your didn't

1523
01:37:59.399 --> 01:38:01.399
pull me for a minut you threw the suitcase out

1524
01:38:01.399 --> 01:38:03.920
of the window. Your mother saw Rakes carried Dwelly House

1525
01:38:03.920 --> 01:38:07.279
into the smoking compartment. Rakes killed her because he couldn't

1526
01:38:07.279 --> 01:38:07.800
take a chance.

1527
01:38:07.880 --> 01:38:08.720
Frakes, did you?

1528
01:38:08.920 --> 01:38:10.960
Of course I did. I wasn't going to let an

1529
01:38:10.960 --> 01:38:12.079
old heightspot of my day.

1530
01:38:12.399 --> 01:38:14.720
You double crossing slide.

1531
01:38:14.399 --> 01:38:16.600
And Rake's hid John Jones or John Grady House and

1532
01:38:16.640 --> 01:38:18.960
the smoker until he could get rid of so hot.

1533
01:38:19.680 --> 01:38:22.000
When I'm into the smoking compartment looking for the old boy,

1534
01:38:22.079 --> 01:38:24.319
you followed me, planted a fast one on my jaw,

1535
01:38:24.600 --> 01:38:27.239
then carried missus Winter's in, hoping to frame me for

1536
01:38:27.319 --> 01:38:30.319
a murder. Finally, you gregg dwery House up on the

1537
01:38:30.359 --> 01:38:32.159
top of the car, planning to get rid of him

1538
01:38:32.159 --> 01:38:33.920
all along the way. You can't throw a wed of

1539
01:38:33.960 --> 01:38:37.439
at light at your who can? Redy House's body slipped

1540
01:38:37.439 --> 01:38:39.479
over the edge, caught in a prong, scared the living

1541
01:38:39.560 --> 01:38:42.159
daylights out of Lydia. Yes, that was the upside down

1542
01:38:42.239 --> 01:38:44.640
fish you saw at the window. Oh it wasn't.

1543
01:38:45.079 --> 01:38:46.119
No, it was no good.

1544
01:38:46.199 --> 01:38:48.399
It's a good story, Langford, but you can't make it

1545
01:38:48.520 --> 01:38:50.800
stick all cantime. When you hit me, you took my

1546
01:38:50.800 --> 01:38:53.079
cigarette case with the seventy five thousand pounds in it.

1547
01:38:53.359 --> 01:38:55.279
Look him over, fellow, don't put your heads upon me.

1548
01:38:55.399 --> 01:38:56.279
Shall I knock him out?

1549
01:38:56.760 --> 01:39:05.720
Yes, here's the cigarette case, bosh, good work back. Yes,

1550
01:39:05.880 --> 01:39:08.000
the seventy five thousand pounds is inside.

1551
01:39:08.119 --> 01:39:10.520
But how did you ever know Rights was guilty?

1552
01:39:10.720 --> 01:39:12.560
When he hit me a while back? I fled the possum,

1553
01:39:12.680 --> 01:39:15.319
made him think I was knocked unconscious, and I followed

1554
01:39:15.359 --> 01:39:16.800
him through the window of the train and saw him.

1555
01:39:17.159 --> 01:39:19.680
I waited till he returned to spill the story. All

1556
01:39:19.960 --> 01:39:23.000
very simple, mister Lang, for one question, please, how did

1557
01:39:23.079 --> 01:39:25.520
you happen to be on the train. The board of

1558
01:39:25.560 --> 01:39:28.359
director sent for me. The suspected very Horse was juggling

1559
01:39:28.399 --> 01:39:31.439
their books and wanted me to investigate the line. Very

1560
01:39:31.479 --> 01:39:35.039
Hars did juggle the books. He store seventy five thousand pounds,

1561
01:39:35.159 --> 01:39:38.199
pocketed it and tried to disappear. As a matter of fact,

1562
01:39:38.199 --> 01:39:40.479
he had steamship tickets all set to go to America,

1563
01:39:40.840 --> 01:39:42.880
and I thought he was a do well. He is

1564
01:39:42.920 --> 01:39:45.279
an video his body applying in a ditch a few

1565
01:39:45.319 --> 01:39:48.880
miles back. The train is stuffing well.

1566
01:39:48.960 --> 01:39:49.159
Paul.

1567
01:39:49.279 --> 01:40:02.359
Here we are labor laborer la to concurd my report.

1568
01:40:02.920 --> 01:40:06.039
The train pulled to a stop at tableistation Augustus Rex

1569
01:40:06.119 --> 01:40:09.439
was arrested for first degree murder. The seventy five thousand

1570
01:40:09.479 --> 01:40:13.119
pounds in question was returned as for instructions. Diana Winters

1571
01:40:13.239 --> 01:40:15.840
was taken into custody. She had been responsible for the

1572
01:40:16.039 --> 01:40:19.000
entire plan. It was she who had engineered the entire plot,

1573
01:40:19.239 --> 01:40:22.119
having access to dwelling House's private documents. As a second,

1574
01:40:23.359 --> 01:40:25.720
this closes my report to the Acting Chairman of the

1575
01:40:25.760 --> 01:40:30.319
East Anglian Railroad, respectfully submitted by your agent with him

1576
01:40:30.359 --> 01:40:44.000
length from the time warrantages of the past, we have

1577
01:40:44.159 --> 01:40:52.039
brought you the story the four fifteen Express tell people

1578
01:40:52.720 --> 01:40:53.359
all the.

1579
01:40:53.439 --> 01:41:22.880
Bell My dear, what do you feel makes value? I'm

1580
01:41:23.000 --> 01:41:25.640
not sure I know myself, at least not at this

1581
01:41:26.920 --> 01:41:35.640
particular juncture, but well, I'm open to ideas. Sometimes I

1582
01:41:35.800 --> 01:41:38.680
feel like what we're told is worth so much is

1583
01:41:38.800 --> 01:41:49.359
actually a fugazi not really there, not really solid, transparent

1584
01:41:49.720 --> 01:41:56.920
and pointless, almost like you've been paid with a glass dime.

1585
01:42:17.000 --> 01:42:21.279
I am the whistler, and I know many things. For

1586
01:42:21.479 --> 01:42:26.119
I walk by night. I know many strange tales hidden

1587
01:42:26.199 --> 01:42:28.439
in the hearts of men and women who are stipped

1588
01:42:28.479 --> 01:42:34.000
into the shadows. Yes, I know the nameless terrors of which.

1589
01:42:33.880 --> 01:42:40.399
They dare not speak, and all the whispers, strange stories

1590
01:42:41.199 --> 01:43:03.319
the glass dimes. It was early evening as Wally Layton

1591
01:43:03.439 --> 01:43:05.840
stepped out of his office on the third floor of

1592
01:43:05.880 --> 01:43:09.359
the Drake Buildings, and his mood was anything cheerful.

1593
01:43:10.439 --> 01:43:13.079
Locking the door behind him, he stopped for a moment,

1594
01:43:13.880 --> 01:43:17.600
gazed at the lettering on the glass panels Walter Layton

1595
01:43:17.840 --> 01:43:23.359
Theatrical Agency. A frown crossed his features men shaking his

1596
01:43:23.520 --> 01:43:28.800
head sadly, sighed and started down the corridor toward the elevators.

1597
01:43:30.840 --> 01:43:33.680
You whirl at the soundwock and then see a tall,

1598
01:43:33.800 --> 01:43:35.680
heavy set man rush out of an office at the

1599
01:43:35.760 --> 01:43:38.239
end of the hall. You come running towards.

1600
01:43:38.000 --> 01:43:39.000
You, Hey, what's the idea?

1601
01:43:39.079 --> 01:43:39.600
What's going on?

1602
01:43:40.319 --> 01:43:50.399
The way use? It catches you on the point of

1603
01:43:50.439 --> 01:43:54.760
the jaw, then just falling man. As you manage to

1604
01:43:54.800 --> 01:43:56.800
get to your feet again, you see that he's reached

1605
01:43:56.800 --> 01:44:00.319
the head of the stairs. He turns and levels, gude,

1606
01:44:00.319 --> 01:44:03.840
aren't you The bullet whistles passed you as you drop

1607
01:44:04.000 --> 01:44:08.439
to the floor. An instant later, the man disappears down

1608
01:44:08.520 --> 01:44:12.359
the stairway. Mister Lake, are you hurt?

1609
01:44:12.720 --> 01:44:12.760
No?

1610
01:44:13.279 --> 01:44:17.239
No, I guess not. Doc what's happened? I heard the

1611
01:44:17.279 --> 01:44:20.319
shots from my office. It beats me. I heard some shots.

1612
01:44:20.560 --> 01:44:23.079
Then the guy came charging out of the coin dealer's office.

1613
01:44:23.119 --> 01:44:23.239
Down.

1614
01:44:23.479 --> 01:44:24.119
Who rent Worth?

1615
01:44:24.279 --> 01:44:24.479
Yeah?

1616
01:44:24.880 --> 01:44:26.680
I tried to stop him, but he bowled me out

1617
01:44:26.720 --> 01:44:29.600
of the way, took off. Come on, we'd better see

1618
01:44:29.600 --> 01:44:40.600
if it worths all right, mister Redworth. Mister redw Oh,

1619
01:44:41.479 --> 01:44:43.199
miss Martin, now you all right? Yes?

1620
01:44:43.920 --> 01:44:45.199
Yes, what's happened in here?

1621
01:44:45.840 --> 01:44:46.279
I don't know.

1622
01:44:47.119 --> 01:44:49.920
I was in the back room, mister Redworth was out

1623
01:44:49.960 --> 01:44:52.960
here talking with someone, and then I heard the shot.

1624
01:44:53.720 --> 01:45:00.600
I rushed out. It steady, where's rent Worth over there

1625
01:45:01.399 --> 01:45:10.840
behind the counter. Let's have a look, Clayton. Well, doctor

1626
01:45:12.520 --> 01:45:17.399
sure Wentworth dead. I think you'd better call the police.

1627
01:45:27.880 --> 01:45:31.760
And you say you didn't see this man, miss Martin, no, Lieutenant,

1628
01:45:32.279 --> 01:45:37.199
I didn't. I'll tell me it was mister Wrentworth expecting anyone,

1629
01:45:37.560 --> 01:45:40.720
and not that I know of. I'm sure it was

1630
01:45:40.760 --> 01:45:41.760
an attempt at robbery.

1631
01:45:42.640 --> 01:45:45.079
As a matter of fact, we were about to close

1632
01:45:45.159 --> 01:45:48.199
up the office. We'd been in the back room checking

1633
01:45:48.279 --> 01:45:50.439
the catalogs from the front door by the ring.

1634
01:45:51.399 --> 01:45:55.640
Mister Wentworth went out to see who it was. Lieutenant,

1635
01:45:56.399 --> 01:46:00.399
if I may interrupt. Oh, certainly, mister Laton. He got

1636
01:46:00.439 --> 01:46:04.439
a good look at the killer that so with the Layton. Yes,

1637
01:46:04.680 --> 01:46:07.119
I ran into him in the hall right after it happened.

1638
01:46:07.199 --> 01:46:09.640
He took a couple of shots at me too. All right,

1639
01:46:09.760 --> 01:46:14.319
what they look like? All who? Tall, rugged and round forty?

1640
01:46:14.399 --> 01:46:18.279
I'd say, dark, square john, Uh huh, not much of

1641
01:46:18.359 --> 01:46:22.880
a description. Well, it'll do fine for now. Oh, got

1642
01:46:22.920 --> 01:46:28.640
so many in line, maybe, miss Martin. I don't suppose

1643
01:46:28.680 --> 01:46:30.479
you've checked to see if the killer took an anything.

1644
01:46:30.920 --> 01:46:34.720
No, I'll have to take inventory. He couldn't have thrown

1645
01:46:34.800 --> 01:46:35.960
anything of real value.

1646
01:46:36.039 --> 01:46:38.920
However, you see all the rare coins are kept in

1647
01:46:39.000 --> 01:46:44.319
the safe and it hasn't been opened. However, several trays

1648
01:46:44.399 --> 01:46:47.640
out here on the counter were upset coin scattered all

1649
01:46:47.680 --> 01:46:48.279
over the floor.

1650
01:46:49.239 --> 01:46:52.119
But I'll let you know if anything's missing. Oh fine, fine,

1651
01:46:52.239 --> 01:46:55.880
not appreciate that now, Miss Layton. I want to keep

1652
01:46:55.960 --> 01:46:58.000
in touch with you in the event we line up

1653
01:46:58.039 --> 01:47:02.680
for a man identification. Sure, sure, I have a theatrical

1654
01:47:02.720 --> 01:47:06.479
agency on this floor. Only I might not be around

1655
01:47:06.560 --> 01:47:09.840
much longer. Business isn't so good. Well, you live here

1656
01:47:09.880 --> 01:47:14.640

1658
01:47:19.920 --> 01:47:21.880

1659
01:47:21.880 --> 01:47:44.560

1661
01:47:54.600 --> 01:47:58.359
This is a surprise, not disturbing you, am I. Oh no,

1662
01:47:58.640 --> 01:48:03.039

1664
01:48:12.680 --> 01:48:17.319
thing about it is a rents paid for another whole month. Yes,

1666
01:48:24.039 --> 01:48:29.159
It's been a rather hectic day. Yeah, too bad about

01:48:29.239 --> 01:48:31.199

Shall I come right to the point, mister Lighton, Oh.

1669
01:48:36.159 --> 01:48:41.560
Take your time. It isn't often I have such charming company.

1670
01:48:42.920 --> 01:48:47.359
What have you done with the glass dime? What the

1671
01:48:47.439 --> 01:48:54.000
glass dime? D im? What is this a gang now, gig?

1672
01:48:54.960 --> 01:48:57.760
It's a rare collector's item, once belonged to the collection

1673
01:48:57.880 --> 01:48:59.039
of the late Justin W.

1674
01:48:59.239 --> 01:49:05.479
Glass, hence the name first time cute. So what's it

1675
01:49:05.560 --> 01:49:08.000
to do with me? You picked it up at the

1676
01:49:08.079 --> 01:49:08.760
office tonight.

1677
01:49:09.600 --> 01:49:13.520
I did well quite by accident, of course. The crime

1678
01:49:13.640 --> 01:49:15.159
was on the counter near the telephone.

1679
01:49:16.159 --> 01:49:18.840
I saw you pick it up, toy with it while

1680
01:49:18.880 --> 01:49:23.039
you called the police, and without thinking, you must have

1681
01:49:23.279 --> 01:49:24.399
dropped it into your pocket.

1682
01:49:26.119 --> 01:49:35.119
Why don't you look you're drake, miss Martin. Thank you, cheers, cheers.

1683
01:49:38.840 --> 01:49:45.720
Well hmm oh the coin? Try the right coat pocket?

1684
01:49:47.720 --> 01:49:51.319
Well what are you laws? This is it? That's it.

1685
01:49:52.279 --> 01:49:54.960
Look if you saw me take the coin, wanted to

1686
01:49:55.000 --> 01:49:57.840
tell the police, Well, that would have been most embarrassing

1687
01:49:57.960 --> 01:50:01.439
for him, even though you had taking it by access. Yeah,

1688
01:50:01.520 --> 01:50:05.720
the lieutenant might not have believed it. I believe those

1689
01:50:05.840 --> 01:50:10.279
things happened. What's this glass dime? Work? A couple of bucks? Ten?

1690
01:50:10.399 --> 01:50:17.039
Maybe five thousand dollars? But five thousand, as I said,

1691
01:50:17.439 --> 01:50:21.800
rare item? Whoa, whoa wait wait a minute, I thought

1692
01:50:21.840 --> 01:50:24.119
you told the lieutenant. But all the expensive stuff was

1693
01:50:24.199 --> 01:50:26.920
kept us safe, that's right. And yet this coin worth

1694
01:50:27.000 --> 01:50:29.119
five grand was in one of the trays on the collar.

1695
01:50:29.840 --> 01:50:33.039
Mister Redworth has been showing it to a customer this afternoon.

1696
01:50:34.279 --> 01:50:36.960
I have forgot to put it in the safe.

1697
01:50:37.079 --> 01:50:40.000
Really, I was sort of chairless of you, wasn't it

1698
01:50:40.920 --> 01:50:45.199
very Maybe you had plans for the glass dime? Huh? Maybe?

1699
01:50:45.399 --> 01:50:49.560
All right? It is eith, isn't it? But you say

1700
01:50:49.640 --> 01:50:50.760
we stopped playing games. Huh.

1701
01:50:51.479 --> 01:50:54.479
We can make sixty thousand dollars if you're interested. Wally,

1702
01:50:55.840 --> 01:50:58.680
it is, Wally, isn't it sixty thousand?

1703
01:51:00.000 --> 01:51:02.640
He said it was worth five? That's right, But twelve

1704
01:51:02.960 --> 01:51:05.960
times five or sixty. I can have a dozen copies

1705
01:51:06.000 --> 01:51:07.560
of the coin made, and we can peddle them in

1706
01:51:07.600 --> 01:51:09.880
different parts of the country in a broad I know

1707
01:51:09.960 --> 01:51:13.600
the man who'll do the job. I met him through Wentworth. Oh,

1708
01:51:13.720 --> 01:51:16.880
he's a real artist. He keeps the original, and we

1709
01:51:17.000 --> 01:51:18.600
get a dozen for me sixty grand.

1710
01:51:19.720 --> 01:51:21.359
We we split fifty fifty.

1711
01:51:21.560 --> 01:51:27.479
That's right. What's the matter? I'm just curious about something?

1712
01:51:28.319 --> 01:51:31.680
Why cut me in on this? Two reasons?

1713
01:51:32.680 --> 01:51:35.239
First, I don't feel faith with the man who's going

1714
01:51:35.319 --> 01:51:40.199
to do the job. He might double across me. He

1715
01:51:40.239 --> 01:51:44.239
wouldn't dare to try anything if I brought my partner along.

1716
01:51:45.039 --> 01:51:46.439
One with broad shoulders.

1717
01:51:47.640 --> 01:51:49.560
Okay, that's the first reason. What's the other.

1718
01:51:51.439 --> 01:51:55.279
Well, let's say I enjoy the protection of a handsome

1719
01:51:55.399 --> 01:51:56.800
man with broad shoulders.

1720
01:51:58.680 --> 01:52:04.800
Well, isn't adeed? It's a deal, sweetheart.

1721
01:52:28.479 --> 01:52:31.600
The future looks bright, doesn't it? Quality, Yes, and all

1722
01:52:31.760 --> 01:52:35.520
because of the glass dimes, a rare collector's item. You

1723
01:52:35.640 --> 01:52:39.039
picked up an amos Rentworth's office shortly after the.

1724
01:52:39.119 --> 01:52:40.399
Coin dealer was murdered.

1725
01:52:41.199 --> 01:52:44.960
You've made a deal, agreed to a partnership with the exciting,

1726
01:52:45.079 --> 01:52:49.760
attractive Edith Martin, the dead man's secretary, A deal you

1727
01:52:49.960 --> 01:52:52.840
hope will knit the two of you sixty thousand dollars.

1728
01:52:53.800 --> 01:52:55.760
You don't bother to go down to your office the

1729
01:52:55.840 --> 01:52:59.560
following day. No, you sleep late and then put in

1730
01:52:59.640 --> 01:53:02.880
a call to Edith at the coin dealer morning.

1731
01:53:02.960 --> 01:53:04.560
Sweet, you mean afternoon?

1732
01:53:04.640 --> 01:53:05.560
Don't you just get up?

1733
01:53:05.760 --> 01:53:09.079
Yeah? But I take a well unrest, I wish I could.

1734
01:53:09.920 --> 01:53:13.319
I've been busy checking accounts and taking inventory with mister

1735
01:53:13.399 --> 01:53:14.479
Redwood's lawyer b.

1736
01:53:14.600 --> 01:53:18.279
The eyes person, Kenny Union. No, he isn't back from

1737
01:53:18.359 --> 01:53:20.680
lunch yet, got to be tied up with him all day.

1738
01:53:21.319 --> 01:53:24.640
Hi till how about dinner with your new father? I

1739
01:53:24.880 --> 01:53:28.640
love you? Name it Petty. It's in the commercial district.

1740
01:53:28.760 --> 01:53:32.960
You know the place, right, seven o'clock, seven o'clock. How Oh,

1741
01:53:33.520 --> 01:53:34.920
someone at the door. I'll see it that I know.

1742
01:53:35.359 --> 01:53:35.520
Ye?

1743
01:53:40.840 --> 01:53:47.520
Yeah, Well hello mister Lytton, your lieutenant Conlan. Yeah that's right.

1744
01:53:48.560 --> 01:53:51.920
Uh what can I do for you? Lieutenant? You can

1745
01:53:52.039 --> 01:53:58.079
take a ride with me down the police headquarters. What no, no, no,

1746
01:53:58.159 --> 01:54:00.960
I need prolonged, mister Layton. It's likely if you look

1747
01:54:01.000 --> 01:54:04.039
over some photographs that so after Earl you're the only

1748
01:54:04.159 --> 01:54:07.399
person who got a good look at Frontworth's killer. Oh

1749
01:54:07.760 --> 01:54:12.199
oh yeah, yeah sure. Hey wait a minute, didn't you

1750
01:54:12.239 --> 01:54:14.239
say last night you had an idea who the killer

1751
01:54:14.319 --> 01:54:18.960
might be? Yes, yeah, but that was last night. We

1752
01:54:19.199 --> 01:54:23.159
checked on the man. He's back east and he's not

1753
01:54:23.319 --> 01:54:29.039
the murderer. No, I like Liuton, Come on in. I'll

1754
01:54:29.079 --> 01:54:30.359
be with you as soon as I got dressed.

1755
01:54:38.079 --> 01:54:41.000
You spend the rest of the afternoon at police headquarters

1756
01:54:41.079 --> 01:54:44.439
looking over the photographs in the rogue gallery, but you

1757
01:54:44.560 --> 01:54:48.199
failed to recognize the man you saw running from Rentworth's office.

1758
01:54:49.359 --> 01:54:53.399
Leading headquarters, you head for your rendezvous with Edith alive

1759
01:54:53.479 --> 01:54:56.199
at the restaurant at six thirty, a half hour early

1760
01:54:57.439 --> 01:55:00.520
to kill time. You saw her down the street, looking

1761
01:55:00.640 --> 01:55:05.119
into one shop window after another. Finally, you stopped in

1762
01:55:05.239 --> 01:55:09.000
front of the sporting goods store and you're suddenly aware

1763
01:55:09.119 --> 01:55:12.920
that someone is standing close to you. You turn and stare,

1764
01:55:13.079 --> 01:55:17.319
and your knees almost buckle. Yes Wally, it's the man

1765
01:55:17.479 --> 01:55:18.640
who killed rent With.

1766
01:55:19.279 --> 01:55:24.439
You're surprised, buddy, you I've been tailing you ever since

1767
01:55:24.479 --> 01:55:28.159
you left police headquarters. I figure them cops had called

1768
01:55:28.199 --> 01:55:31.319
you to get a look at the mug book. Well

1769
01:55:32.359 --> 01:55:34.680
I'm sorry, buddy, but you're the only guy in the

1770
01:55:34.760 --> 01:55:37.039
world can put a finger on me for killing an

1771
01:55:37.039 --> 01:55:39.920
old rent with. So what you out of the way.

1772
01:55:40.000 --> 01:55:43.720
I got nothing to worry about. Wait a minute, I go, sorry,

1773
01:55:45.039 --> 01:55:48.920
but I can't take no chances. Come on, we're gonna

1774
01:55:48.920 --> 01:55:53.720
take a walk. I remember one false movement that you

1775
01:55:53.800 --> 01:55:56.479
have it. I ain't got my head in my coat

1776
01:55:56.600 --> 01:56:00.840
bucket just to keep it warm. You see, let's go.

1777
01:56:05.119 --> 01:56:07.479
You'd like to run, wouldn't your wallet? But you can't.

1778
01:56:08.079 --> 01:56:10.319
You seem rooted to the spot until you feel the

1779
01:56:10.439 --> 01:56:14.760
gun dig into your side, and then somehow your legs responds.

1780
01:56:15.920 --> 01:56:18.560
As you move down the block, the killer at your side,

1781
01:56:19.319 --> 01:56:21.319
you want to yell out to the people in the street.

1782
01:56:22.199 --> 01:56:24.600
Your throat is dry, paralyzed with fear.

1783
01:56:26.199 --> 01:56:29.119
Then, as the killer leads you into a dark alleyway,

1784
01:56:29.239 --> 01:56:33.640
you see your chance. A stack of piled up crates nearby.

1785
01:56:34.800 --> 01:56:36.000
You step aside.

1786
01:56:35.720 --> 01:56:36.279
Quickly, and.

1787
01:56:37.920 --> 01:56:40.319
They come toppling down on them. You start running down

1788
01:56:40.359 --> 01:57:03.960
the alley. Hello, Wally, Oh, Hello, Wally.

1789
01:57:05.000 --> 01:57:07.600
Redworths lawyer kept me in the office longer than I expected.

1790
01:57:07.680 --> 01:57:10.079
I just not got back to my apartment. I'm sorry,

1791
01:57:10.119 --> 01:57:10.520
I'm late.

1792
01:57:10.600 --> 01:57:12.920
I'm glad I caught you before you left. I they

1793
01:57:12.960 --> 01:57:16.680
though either's plenty. I ran in a rent force killer.

1794
01:57:16.920 --> 01:57:19.359
What Yeah, I was lucky to get away. I lost

1795
01:57:19.439 --> 01:57:20.000
him in an alley.

1796
01:57:20.279 --> 01:57:21.239
Wally, where are you now?

1797
01:57:21.399 --> 01:57:21.960
Union Station?

1798
01:57:22.319 --> 01:57:23.800
I'll pick you up in ten minutes.

1799
01:57:23.960 --> 01:57:26.640
Forget it, sweet, I'm grabbing a cab to the police headquarters.

1800
01:57:27.119 --> 01:57:28.000
Police head quarters.

1801
01:57:28.079 --> 01:57:30.359
Why look, my life isn't worth a plug nickel. With

1802
01:57:30.439 --> 01:57:32.439
that killer on the loose, I'm the only one who

1803
01:57:32.479 --> 01:57:34.600
can identify him. I want protection, Wally.

1804
01:57:35.960 --> 01:57:37.359
Wally, you can't go to the police.

1805
01:57:37.439 --> 01:57:38.760
What are you talking about? Do you want me to

1806
01:57:38.800 --> 01:57:39.279
get killed?

1807
01:57:39.520 --> 01:57:39.560
No?

1808
01:57:39.920 --> 01:57:42.600
No, of course not. But going to the police would

1809
01:57:42.680 --> 01:57:46.079
ruin our plans. What do you mean, please, Wally, I'll

1810
01:57:46.119 --> 01:57:47.119
explain everything when.

1811
01:57:46.960 --> 01:57:50.239
I pick you up. Listened, Hey, right where you are, darling.

1812
01:57:50.279 --> 01:58:02.640
I'll be there in ten minutes, don't you see, Wally.

1813
01:58:03.079 --> 01:58:05.680
If you go to the police for protection, then't put

1814
01:58:05.720 --> 01:58:09.039
a man to watch you us, and we can't have

1815
01:58:09.199 --> 01:58:13.000
him follow us to Sully's place selling the contact.

1816
01:58:13.079 --> 01:58:15.159
I told you about the man who's going to make

1817
01:58:15.199 --> 01:58:18.600
the phony dive. I need you with me walking.

1818
01:58:19.039 --> 01:58:21.039
He won't try anything funny if you're around.

1819
01:58:21.800 --> 01:58:25.199
So in the meantime I'm a walking target, sitting duck

1820
01:58:25.279 --> 01:58:25.800
for a killer.

1821
01:58:26.279 --> 01:58:29.000
Not the long of it. I've made arrangements to see

1822
01:58:29.079 --> 01:58:29.800
Sully tonight.

1823
01:58:30.479 --> 01:58:34.119
Tonight, I thought we decided to wait till things.

1824
01:58:33.960 --> 01:58:34.760
Cool off a little.

1825
01:58:35.000 --> 01:58:35.880
We can't wait.

1826
01:58:36.560 --> 01:58:39.479
Mister Verson knows the glass diamond is missing.

1827
01:58:40.359 --> 01:58:43.920
What you're told him, I had to.

1828
01:58:44.680 --> 01:58:46.960
He asked me about it while we were taking inventory.

1829
01:58:47.319 --> 01:58:50.199
Look, you said it hadn't been listed in rent Worth catalogs.

1830
01:58:50.319 --> 01:58:53.840
That's right. But Rentworth must have told Urson about it

1831
01:58:53.880 --> 01:58:55.720
when he brought the coin a few days ago. He

1832
01:58:55.800 --> 01:58:57.920
see Burston's sort of a silent partner.

1833
01:58:58.960 --> 01:59:01.640
The police know, you know, with Verson knowing, I had

1834
01:59:01.720 --> 01:59:05.199
to tell them. Last Dime is already getting a lot

1835
01:59:05.239 --> 01:59:05.880
of publicity.

1836
01:59:06.800 --> 01:59:08.680
I heard the story on the radio an hour ago,

1837
01:59:08.760 --> 01:59:10.359
and I'm sure it'll get a big play in the

1838
01:59:10.399 --> 01:59:14.359
Morning Page. Early editions are probably headlining, and they're on

1839
01:59:14.439 --> 01:59:15.479
the streets by now.

1840
01:59:16.640 --> 01:59:18.800
All of which means we have a very hot dime

1841
01:59:18.880 --> 01:59:22.439
on our hands. But how will that affect your contact,

1842
01:59:22.640 --> 01:59:24.159
Sully or whatever his name is.

1843
01:59:24.479 --> 01:59:25.600
It won't affect Sully.

1844
01:59:25.720 --> 01:59:29.359
If we get it to him tonight, they'll probably.

1845
01:59:29.079 --> 01:59:31.319
Have to give him part of our profits on the phony.

1846
01:59:31.159 --> 01:59:34.600
Dimes on account of the additional risk. But don't worry.

1847
01:59:34.680 --> 01:59:35.760
We'll come out all right.

1848
01:59:35.960 --> 01:59:40.159
Okay, okay, but what about this killer on the loose?

1849
01:59:40.760 --> 01:59:41.920
What are we gonna do about him?

1850
01:59:42.319 --> 01:59:45.520
Listen, well, after we've set the deal with Sully, you

1851
01:59:45.600 --> 01:59:46.840
can go to the police.

1852
01:59:46.600 --> 01:59:48.039
Get all the protection you want.

1853
01:59:48.640 --> 01:59:49.840
How soon can we talk to him?

1854
01:59:50.159 --> 01:59:52.840
And they lived just the side of Santa Barbara. We

1855
01:59:52.920 --> 01:59:55.000
can drive up the Coast Highway and be there in

1856
01:59:55.079 --> 01:59:55.600
two hours.

1857
01:59:57.199 --> 01:59:59.760
You do have a coin with you?

1858
02:00:00.279 --> 02:00:04.560
Yeah? Okay, let's get going.

1859
02:00:18.600 --> 02:00:25.199
You're kind of quiet while Oh sorry, look it's worthy.

1860
02:00:25.439 --> 02:00:27.159
No, I can wait till we hits out of bottles.

1861
02:00:27.239 --> 02:00:30.520
But I wait, life's too short, and who knows that

1862
02:00:30.600 --> 02:00:32.760
there will be a cocktail bars in biting Looking at

1863
02:00:32.800 --> 02:00:33.039
that one?

1864
02:00:33.039 --> 02:00:35.039
I've had all right?

1865
02:00:35.199 --> 02:00:36.359
He twisted my arm.

1866
02:00:36.439 --> 02:00:38.159
I'll swing in talk in the back.

1867
02:00:54.960 --> 02:00:57.039
How about the boots in the corner. I'd rather shot

1868
02:00:57.039 --> 02:01:01.319
at the bar. You mind, I can get a better

1869
02:01:01.399 --> 02:01:06.279
view of the highway while that be fault for Bourbons. Okay,

1870
02:01:06.600 --> 02:01:13.119
I'm fine that Wally. Yeah what you said about watching

1871
02:01:13.199 --> 02:01:19.960
the highway, I don't know Wentworth killing I knew it. Yeah, yeah,

1872
02:01:20.760 --> 02:01:23.880
that'll be pulled in sitting out there waiting for us.

1873
02:01:24.199 --> 02:01:25.560
Huh what'd you say, mister?

1874
02:01:25.760 --> 02:01:29.159
They're back way out of here? Next back way? Sure, mister?

1875
02:01:29.600 --> 02:01:32.680
On the what about these drinks? I only yeah, yeah,

1876
02:01:32.720 --> 02:01:35.520
this on't cover the drinks. Come on, we run the

1877
02:01:35.520 --> 02:01:35.920
back way.

1878
02:01:36.520 --> 02:01:38.680
You heard me go on. The killer is getting out

1879
02:01:38.680 --> 02:01:56.680
of the car, heading in here, get going here? What

1880
02:01:56.920 --> 02:01:59.039
was it all about, Wally? Why'd we run out like

1881
02:01:59.159 --> 02:02:02.239
that guy who killed Rentworth? Picked us up again? We

1882
02:02:02.319 --> 02:02:03.479
didn't get enough of a start?

1883
02:02:03.640 --> 02:02:04.520
Are you assuring es?

1884
02:02:05.439 --> 02:02:08.399
I've passed his car in Santa Monica, been trailing its heated.

1885
02:02:09.119 --> 02:02:10.680
That's why I pulled up at the bar. I wanted

1886
02:02:10.680 --> 02:02:14.520
to be sure. Maybe we can lose in this time. Step,

1887
02:02:18.239 --> 02:02:20.399
I'll turn on the radio. It's time for the news.

1888
02:02:21.359 --> 02:02:23.159
If there's anything more on the glass dime.

1889
02:02:24.079 --> 02:02:27.279
And that's about all on Korea for the moment, And

1890
02:02:27.399 --> 02:02:31.079
aside from Senator Watson's speech, which we've already covered. Everything

1891
02:02:31.199 --> 02:02:35.560
was quiet on the political front. The murderer of Amos

1892
02:02:35.640 --> 02:02:39.439
Rentworth coin dealer is still alive. But as announced earlier,

1893
02:02:39.560 --> 02:02:42.520
a amous ten cent piece known as a glass dime

1894
02:02:42.640 --> 02:02:46.199
worth thousands of dollars is sitting from the Rentworth holding

1895
02:02:47.119 --> 02:02:50.520
a bulletin just received offers a reward of one thousand

1896
02:02:50.600 --> 02:02:54.640
dollars for its recovery. And now let's take a look.

1897
02:02:54.520 --> 02:02:58.199
At the start. Enough that died, funny heart. Eat. It

1898
02:02:58.520 --> 02:03:00.520
won't make any difference once we get it to sell.

1899
02:03:00.800 --> 02:03:04.119
If we get it to Sully, that killers with us again.

1900
02:03:04.319 --> 02:03:06.840
It's quite away back, but he's getting on us. Look.

1901
02:03:07.079 --> 02:03:09.079
Look there's a side roll up head turned into it.

1902
02:03:09.359 --> 02:03:18.279
All right, I'll drive on up the road away, let's

1903
02:03:18.279 --> 02:03:24.840
see what happens. Well, he's turned off the highway too.

1904
02:03:25.720 --> 02:03:28.079
He's on our trail again. Come on, you just step

1905
02:03:28.159 --> 02:03:34.439
on it. Come on, come on, can't just fad this.

1906
02:03:34.520 --> 02:03:36.840
Crate up a little and look the road narrow full

1907
02:03:36.880 --> 02:03:37.479
of turn back?

1908
02:03:37.560 --> 02:03:38.359
Can goo anything?

1909
02:03:38.520 --> 02:03:44.680
Well, you got to he's posing in on us. Only

1910
02:03:44.680 --> 02:03:46.840
a few more turns, maybe road straightens out out of

1911
02:03:46.920 --> 02:03:50.840
that way. Look out, he just curb up ahead hard

1912
02:03:54.640 --> 02:04:01.760
he is it is? You're okay, I think, come on,

1913
02:04:03.159 --> 02:04:06.079
I to leave the car. We can't possibly take it

1914
02:04:06.079 --> 02:04:09.920
out of this ditch, but we haven't time. Come on,

1915
02:04:10.079 --> 02:04:11.880
we'll head down the ravine, try to get back to

1916
02:04:11.960 --> 02:04:23.000
the highway. You leave the car stalled in the ditch,

1917
02:04:23.560 --> 02:04:26.840
hurry down the ravine, and a short time later you

1918
02:04:26.960 --> 02:04:30.239
approached the highway. You're a cluster of the buildings at

1919
02:04:30.279 --> 02:04:34.920
the intersection where you turned off. You're in luck whiley Yeah,

1920
02:04:35.840 --> 02:04:40.600
a small diner across the highway is open. Money is

1921
02:04:41.479 --> 02:04:43.039
still close to the buildings on this side of the

1922
02:04:43.079 --> 02:04:45.560
road until the traffic thins out, and then we'll duck across.

1923
02:04:46.720 --> 02:04:50.680
Wait a minute while he's what's my name? Look up ahead,

1924
02:04:51.600 --> 02:04:55.279
he's come out of the side road. Yeah, he doubled back.

1925
02:04:56.000 --> 02:04:58.920
Probably figured we'd try the highway. You'll see not if

1926
02:04:58.920 --> 02:05:04.039
we conduct into one of these doors. There's a little

1927
02:05:04.039 --> 02:05:07.760
Hamburger hut and it's closed. Let's go on the back.

1928
02:05:13.840 --> 02:05:19.439
This door isn't heavy. We're forcing open. Hurry, Wally, hurry again.

1929
02:05:21.319 --> 02:05:34.239
It's get our leaders. It's him, Yeah, driving past. I

1930
02:05:34.319 --> 02:05:38.079
don't think it. M Oh, wait a minute, he stopped

1931
02:05:38.119 --> 02:05:41.600
the car. Must have seen her stuck in here. Whilely

1932
02:05:41.680 --> 02:05:44.319
we'll work off in here than we were before. No, no,

1933
02:05:44.479 --> 02:05:49.399
we're not. Look across the road a police car parked

1934
02:05:49.399 --> 02:05:53.880
alongside the dinner. Yeah, two highway patrolmen inside that diner

1935
02:05:54.000 --> 02:05:57.399
having dinner. Look, we gotta get word to those patrolmens.

1936
02:05:58.239 --> 02:06:00.279
We got as long as liver. It takes two comps

1937
02:06:00.359 --> 02:06:01.199
to finish their dinner.

1938
02:06:16.880 --> 02:06:20.600
Yes, wale the two highway patrolmen in the diner across.

1939
02:06:20.319 --> 02:06:21.600
The road or a welcome sight.

1940
02:06:21.720 --> 02:06:24.479
An't say you're certain that as long as they're in

1941
02:06:24.600 --> 02:06:27.159
the diner, Rentworth's killer will not make a move to

1942
02:06:27.279 --> 02:06:31.479
eliminate you, the only witness against it. Then the blood

1943
02:06:31.520 --> 02:06:34.920
almost freezes in your veins as you see the killer

1944
02:06:35.000 --> 02:06:38.319
step from his car and start walking slowly toward the

1945
02:06:38.359 --> 02:06:42.119
Hamburger hut where you and Edith Martin have taken refuge.

1946
02:06:43.119 --> 02:06:47.319
Suddenly you realize that the two highway policemen, calmly enjoying

1947
02:06:47.359 --> 02:06:50.600
their dinner are no hindrance to the killer, unless you

1948
02:06:50.720 --> 02:06:54.680
can somehow get word to them before rentworth.

1949
02:06:54.279 --> 02:06:59.079
Player reaches you. He's spotted us either he's coming, but

1950
02:06:59.239 --> 02:07:01.720
the policeman I don't know who he is. They're not

1951
02:07:01.800 --> 02:07:05.159
even looking this way. Well, you gotta phone that diner.

1952
02:07:05.600 --> 02:07:08.199
Talk to most coups. There ought to be a phone.

1953
02:07:08.439 --> 02:07:13.920
There's a pay phone over there behind the counter. You're

1954
02:07:13.920 --> 02:07:16.279
gonna be change, he did. No, No, I left my

1955
02:07:16.359 --> 02:07:19.640
purse back at the car. Don't you have any just

1956
02:07:19.760 --> 02:07:22.279
a four bit piece, two pennies, a couple of bills

1957
02:07:22.640 --> 02:07:29.920
and the dime. You mean the glass time? Yeah, oh no, Walley,

1958
02:07:30.359 --> 02:07:33.319
not the glass time. Now, after all we've gone through,

1959
02:07:33.640 --> 02:07:36.560
eat I get killed. Besides, we can get it back

1960
02:07:36.600 --> 02:07:38.880
when they open the coin box with a thousand dollars

1961
02:07:38.920 --> 02:07:41.239
reward of it, and all the publicity about it.

1962
02:07:42.439 --> 02:07:44.920
Never worry, we'll never get it back.

1963
02:07:46.880 --> 02:07:52.479
Think Wally, sixty thousand dollars, you'll think I want to live.

1964
02:08:23.239 --> 02:08:28.560
Well, my dear, I suppose the evening has began to

1965
02:08:28.760 --> 02:08:34.239
unwind and unravel. You should probably go before the sun

1966
02:08:34.479 --> 02:08:38.800
comes out and I have to return to wherever it

1967
02:08:39.039 --> 02:08:44.119
is I come from. But remember, I'll be right here,

1968
02:08:45.119 --> 02:08:52.119
the same time, same place, waiting for you. But now,

1969
02:08:53.119 --> 02:08:56.479
as you make your way home, as you march through

1970
02:08:56.520 --> 02:09:01.840
the cold air and trudge through the deep, no, as

1971
02:09:01.880 --> 02:09:05.760
you open the door of your humble abode, as you

1972
02:09:05.880 --> 02:09:09.119
climb into bed, lay your head on your pillow and

1973
02:09:09.319 --> 02:09:15.039
begin to nod off. Do me this one favor, Take

1974
02:09:15.159 --> 02:09:20.279
one moment and be thankful for what you have, and

1975
02:09:20.479 --> 02:09:21.640
I'll be seeing you
