1
00:00:09.160 --> 00:00:14.560
Ah, so good to see you, my dear The big
2
00:00:14.679 --> 00:00:20.399
day and night is coming right up. I'd be lying
3
00:00:20.480 --> 00:00:26.519
if I said I wasn't positively jovial about it. Well,
4
00:00:26.559 --> 00:00:30.320
and I'm even more so now that you, my dear
5
00:00:30.960 --> 00:00:36.200
dear friend, are here. I hope you're well rested, because
6
00:00:37.119 --> 00:00:41.640
there's so much to get to Tonight. I'll be bringing
7
00:00:41.679 --> 00:00:45.560
you all the chills and thrills that we oh so
8
00:00:45.880 --> 00:00:50.840
enjoy together, and we'll be here till the wee hours,
9
00:00:51.799 --> 00:00:56.880
well beyond the witching hour. So get comfortable. The tea
10
00:00:57.000 --> 00:01:02.640
is almost done steeping, and we'll go searching in the dark,
11
00:01:03.280 --> 00:01:06.319
hoping for the devils goal.
12
00:01:07.519 --> 00:01:10.280
Maybe that's right, well, misturn theater prevent.
13
00:01:25.920 --> 00:01:29.159
I means welcome.
14
00:01:29.959 --> 00:01:33.400
I'm eas Marshall, your host in this haven of horrors,
15
00:01:33.879 --> 00:01:36.959
where we tease your imagination with tales of things that
16
00:01:37.159 --> 00:01:39.640
can't possibly happen in real life.
17
00:01:39.879 --> 00:01:41.840
But then again, maybe they can.
18
00:01:42.640 --> 00:01:43.159
Who knows.
19
00:01:43.239 --> 00:01:46.840
But at this very moment, someone somewhere might be flipping
20
00:01:46.840 --> 00:01:50.040
a coin to decide an argument, to settle a debt,
21
00:01:50.560 --> 00:01:52.640
or any of the hundreds of things flipping a coin
22
00:01:52.799 --> 00:01:56.359
can settle. In the story about two Unfold, a coin
23
00:01:56.519 --> 00:02:02.079
becomes a matter of life and death. What's that the
24
00:02:02.239 --> 00:02:07.239
coin at your freek West, Captain. It's not what you think, sir.
25
00:02:07.359 --> 00:02:10.639
The coin fell out of your pocket. The coin follow
26
00:02:10.719 --> 00:02:13.520
won from here last night before.
27
00:02:13.120 --> 00:02:13.840
He was murdered.
28
00:02:14.039 --> 00:02:15.639
It's the coin, captain.
29
00:02:15.360 --> 00:02:15.520
But.
30
00:02:17.000 --> 00:02:18.120
I didn't kill him for it.
31
00:02:18.240 --> 00:02:21.599
You're confined to corridors West and then away reached Port,
32
00:02:21.680 --> 00:02:24.319
New York. I'm turning you over to the authorities on
33
00:02:24.439 --> 00:02:36.360
a charge of murder. Our mystery drama Devil's Goal was
34
00:02:36.400 --> 00:02:39.639
written especially for the radio mystery theater by Bob Jern
35
00:02:40.039 --> 00:02:41.520
and stars Russell Horton.
36
00:02:42.719 --> 00:02:44.520
I'll do that shortly with that one.
37
00:02:51.879 --> 00:02:55.039
Coins have been used for currency for thousands of years.
38
00:02:55.400 --> 00:02:59.599
Coins have commemorated great events and great prisons. Coins have
39
00:02:59.639 --> 00:03:02.159
played the part in history, from pieces of silver to
40
00:03:02.360 --> 00:03:04.879
pieces of eight. And yet never has it been a
41
00:03:04.879 --> 00:03:07.840
coin quite like the one that turns up in our story,
42
00:03:08.319 --> 00:03:10.759
a story that begins in a New York City.
43
00:03:10.560 --> 00:03:14.919
Jail, Rusty, I'm Frank Barr.
44
00:03:15.240 --> 00:03:18.120
Oh, yeah, you're the lawyer the court appointed for me.
45
00:03:18.360 --> 00:03:21.919
That's right. I didn't kill that guy, mister Barr.
46
00:03:22.039 --> 00:03:24.919
Well, that's what the prosecution has to prove. A burden's
47
00:03:24.960 --> 00:03:29.199
on him. But the evidence against you. The only evidence
48
00:03:29.319 --> 00:03:32.479
was that gold coin. There weren't any witnesses.
49
00:03:32.240 --> 00:03:32.960
There rarely are.
50
00:03:33.000 --> 00:03:36.879
The murder guy, Fowler was my ship made of Buddy.
51
00:03:37.159 --> 00:03:40.159
I wouldn't kill him over a lousy coin, especially not
52
00:03:40.479 --> 00:03:46.400
that coin. I knew i'd get it back. That's apparently
53
00:03:46.400 --> 00:03:48.319
what you said in front of witnesses at the card game,
54
00:03:49.280 --> 00:03:51.560
and it was in your possession after the man was murdered.
55
00:03:53.319 --> 00:03:55.479
I've got to know everything before with con ton of defense,
56
00:03:55.639 --> 00:03:59.360
and believe me, it's got to be true. It's all true.
57
00:03:59.400 --> 00:04:01.840
I swear it. Do ahead them.
58
00:04:02.159 --> 00:04:05.680
I'm a merchant seaman, you know. And this thing started
59
00:04:05.680 --> 00:04:09.319
two months ago. We were in a Mediterranean heading for dinner.
60
00:04:10.000 --> 00:04:13.080
That's in Libya. We were pulling in at night and
61
00:04:13.120 --> 00:04:16.439
the lights on the shore were sparkling. Yeah, it was
62
00:04:16.519 --> 00:04:20.680
warn Gunny Fowler, that guy who was killed. He was
63
00:04:20.759 --> 00:04:23.439
on the deck with me. We were both looking forward
64
00:04:23.480 --> 00:04:26.600
to a couple of days. Leave you good to get
65
00:04:26.639 --> 00:04:28.839
off this tub for a while. I ain't been on
66
00:04:28.879 --> 00:04:32.360
a leaky pete like this in forty years. Doesn't bother me.
67
00:04:33.040 --> 00:04:36.279
You're first Hall. You don't expect any better. What have
68
00:04:36.360 --> 00:04:37.720
you been shipping for twenty years.
69
00:04:37.839 --> 00:04:38.920
What's this port like?
70
00:04:39.360 --> 00:04:40.360
Who you been here before?
71
00:04:40.560 --> 00:04:40.800
Yeah?
72
00:04:41.079 --> 00:04:41.360
Once?
73
00:04:41.639 --> 00:04:42.079
Not bad.
74
00:04:42.560 --> 00:04:45.639
Oh, watch out for the shopkeepers or they'll steel your blood.
75
00:04:46.279 --> 00:04:48.360
And I don't have enough money left to steel, and
76
00:04:48.759 --> 00:04:52.319
most of it last night. Yeah, I know you're done
77
00:04:52.360 --> 00:04:54.160
to try to beat these girls at poker.
78
00:04:54.519 --> 00:04:55.439
Now you're too green.
79
00:04:55.680 --> 00:04:58.639
I gotta learn all the ropes. I wanted to get
80
00:04:58.639 --> 00:05:02.319
my girlfriend something, you know, souvenir. I heard the guy
81
00:05:02.399 --> 00:05:04.959
is talking about some store in this Port that's supposed
82
00:05:04.959 --> 00:05:07.879
to be so great. Yeah, yeah, yeah, the Devil's Boutique.
83
00:05:07.879 --> 00:05:08.480
They call it.
84
00:05:09.399 --> 00:05:10.519
That ain't his real name.
85
00:05:10.639 --> 00:05:13.319
They just call it that because it's so hard to find.
86
00:05:14.399 --> 00:05:16.319
Never seemed to be in the same place twice.
87
00:05:16.399 --> 00:05:20.639
Yet some guys claim it don't exist at all, but.
88
00:05:21.079 --> 00:05:22.959
It's probably because they never found it.
89
00:05:23.079 --> 00:05:24.240
Who have you?
90
00:05:24.279 --> 00:05:27.680
No, No, I ain't got no one to buy anything for.
91
00:05:28.240 --> 00:05:30.040
Who does anyone know what street it's on?
92
00:05:31.439 --> 00:05:32.600
D Street?
93
00:05:32.759 --> 00:05:36.399
Names on nothing but Aliway is except for a few
94
00:05:36.519 --> 00:05:41.399
blocks that they called downtown. But they say you recognize
95
00:05:41.439 --> 00:05:45.120
it because it's lighted only with Campbell. Well, maybe I
96
00:05:45.160 --> 00:05:49.399
can find something for Kim there. Sure you can if
97
00:05:49.439 --> 00:05:54.959
you find the shop we tied up in Port and
98
00:05:55.000 --> 00:05:57.160
the next day, I took off alone and warned it
99
00:05:57.199 --> 00:05:59.759
around the town. It with a thrill to be in
100
00:05:59.800 --> 00:06:03.680
a foreign port for the first time. Narrow alleys, street,
101
00:06:03.800 --> 00:06:08.560
vendors all over the place, the sun climbing bright. It
102
00:06:08.680 --> 00:06:12.319
was about noon when I first saw it. Off to
103
00:06:12.360 --> 00:06:14.800
the right was a little lane that seemed to wind
104
00:06:14.839 --> 00:06:18.360
around in the back of below buildings. It was completely deserted.
105
00:06:19.160 --> 00:06:22.199
I took a few steps down the rough cobblestone alley.
106
00:06:23.000 --> 00:06:26.199
It was dimmer, a place where the sun couldn't get to.
107
00:06:29.079 --> 00:06:34.079
There wasn't a sound. The bustle behind me seemed to
108
00:06:34.120 --> 00:06:38.680
have vanished. I walked slowly along the twisting alleyway.
109
00:06:40.040 --> 00:06:42.240
There were a few shops, but they were all closed.
110
00:06:43.040 --> 00:06:47.040
I don't know why I kept walking, but something seemed
111
00:06:47.040 --> 00:06:53.800
to draw me along. And then the alley turned and
112
00:06:54.040 --> 00:06:59.920
there it was a small shop, brightly lighted with candle
113
00:07:01.319 --> 00:07:05.680
in the window. Were closed letter things be spices. There
114
00:07:05.720 --> 00:07:08.279
was no name on the door, but I knew i'd
115
00:07:08.360 --> 00:07:11.360
found that Devil's both cheats.
116
00:07:12.279 --> 00:07:13.240
Who afternoon?
117
00:07:13.959 --> 00:07:19.639
You are Americans, so I was speak English. Welcome, buddy, Thanks,
118
00:07:20.639 --> 00:07:24.759
You are looking for something, particularly something for a girl
119
00:07:24.839 --> 00:07:29.279
in New York. Yes, it's jewelry perhaps, or there's something
120
00:07:29.519 --> 00:07:30.319
less intimate.
121
00:07:30.680 --> 00:07:31.199
It's cave.
122
00:07:31.720 --> 00:07:36.160
Look herold relapse and take your time. My shop is
123
00:07:36.199 --> 00:07:41.360
at your service. Of yeah, okay, thanks, I'll just look around.
124
00:07:44.279 --> 00:07:46.240
The place was fantastic.
125
00:07:47.560 --> 00:07:50.680
I don't know anything about jewels or clothes that stuff,
126
00:07:50.720 --> 00:07:55.240
but what I was seeing in miss shop was dazzling.
127
00:07:56.639 --> 00:07:59.839
I picked out a silver rocket for Kim and it
128
00:08:00.160 --> 00:08:03.639
is then I know. It's this scruffy looking guy handling
129
00:08:03.680 --> 00:08:07.879
everything among the small tables. Suddenly he slipped a gold
130
00:08:07.959 --> 00:08:11.279
candlestick underneath the road he was wearing. Gilked around and
131
00:08:11.319 --> 00:08:14.480
then heading for the door. Hey, hell, WI, what is
132
00:08:14.519 --> 00:08:18.120
the travest that that guy leaving? He took a candlestick
133
00:08:18.160 --> 00:08:19.160
on that table over there.
134
00:08:19.360 --> 00:08:20.040
He's stealing it.
135
00:08:20.319 --> 00:08:21.639
I'll get him. No, wait, it's wet.
136
00:08:21.800 --> 00:08:22.560
It is on the right.
137
00:08:22.839 --> 00:08:25.199
You're gonna let him get away with that? He is
138
00:08:25.240 --> 00:08:28.079
not getting away with anything. I am used to the
139
00:08:28.160 --> 00:08:32.159
thieves of who aren't you gonna call the police? The police? Oh,
140
00:08:32.600 --> 00:08:35.120
I have my own way of doing with these steeves
141
00:08:35.360 --> 00:08:38.320
and getting my merchandise. But how are you gonna get
142
00:08:38.360 --> 00:08:38.759
it back?
143
00:08:38.799 --> 00:08:41.840
You know that guy? No, but it doesn't matter.
144
00:08:42.399 --> 00:08:46.080
The candlestick will be returned to me. No, you know
145
00:08:46.200 --> 00:08:50.000
this price better than I do. Oh, I'm gonna take
146
00:08:50.039 --> 00:08:54.879
this silver locket? How much twenty American dollar?
147
00:08:55.320 --> 00:08:58.480
Fair enough? It is a lovely pizza work.
148
00:08:58.559 --> 00:09:03.159
Here you are challe in twenty. Thank you, thank you,
149
00:09:03.960 --> 00:09:08.039
And now i'd like to show my appreciation for your
150
00:09:08.080 --> 00:09:11.919
sporting theative. It is nice to meet an honest man.
151
00:09:12.639 --> 00:09:15.200
Why didn't do anything? You wouldn't even let me get
152
00:09:15.240 --> 00:09:19.240
employ it. That does not matter, but your interest in
153
00:09:19.320 --> 00:09:24.600
my well being is greatly appreciated. Still, this coin is
154
00:09:24.600 --> 00:09:29.159
a token of my respect. Please take it in friendship,
155
00:09:29.879 --> 00:09:34.080
A simple gift to any air of the devil's butt
156
00:09:34.120 --> 00:09:37.919
it you mean that's what you call the police? No,
157
00:09:38.000 --> 00:09:41.200
not I really, but I am well aware of my
158
00:09:41.399 --> 00:09:44.960
reputation and how my customers refer to my shop.
159
00:09:45.799 --> 00:09:46.000
Here.
160
00:09:46.679 --> 00:09:52.960
Take it, okay, but you know I realize that would
161
00:09:53.039 --> 00:09:58.279
take it. It's yours and this coin will always be
162
00:09:58.480 --> 00:10:05.000
yours forever there. Hey it's heavy solid gold. Oh look
163
00:10:05.159 --> 00:10:10.440
now you can't. It's yours, and as I said it, all.
164
00:10:10.360 --> 00:10:11.840
The ways will be yours.
165
00:10:12.440 --> 00:10:18.960
No one eight can ever own it. I couldn't believe it,
166
00:10:19.720 --> 00:10:21.679
this guy getting me something like that.
167
00:10:21.600 --> 00:10:22.440
For doing nothing.
168
00:10:22.559 --> 00:10:22.879
Really.
169
00:10:23.799 --> 00:10:26.679
I headed back into the streets of Dernham, and two
170
00:10:26.759 --> 00:10:29.279
days later we headed back for the stage.
171
00:10:30.240 --> 00:10:31.120
You need a few.
172
00:10:30.960 --> 00:10:34.000
Bucks to get paid on the draangs, guy, My girlfriend
173
00:10:34.000 --> 00:10:34.559
will end me some.
174
00:10:34.679 --> 00:10:35.320
I'll be okay.
175
00:10:35.960 --> 00:10:40.600
Someday you'll learn not to let them punks take it. Yeah, someday. Well,
176
00:10:40.759 --> 00:10:43.360
we better get down. We'll be pulling in a port
177
00:10:43.480 --> 00:10:49.720
an hour. When I left the ship, I called Kim
178
00:10:49.759 --> 00:10:51.759
and told her i'd pick her up for dinner that night.
179
00:10:52.519 --> 00:10:54.720
I knew she'd spring for a loan, but I kind
180
00:10:54.720 --> 00:10:56.960
of hated to let her know. I gambled away.
181
00:10:56.960 --> 00:11:01.440
Oh my dough. Then I remember the gold coin in
182
00:11:01.519 --> 00:11:02.159
my pocket.
183
00:11:03.080 --> 00:11:05.039
Maybe I could hark it for a few days till
184
00:11:05.080 --> 00:11:08.000
I got paid. I headed for a pawn shop on
185
00:11:08.080 --> 00:11:13.360
sixth Avenue. Ah, I want to horn this coin for
186
00:11:13.399 --> 00:11:15.759
a couple of days. What do you give me for it?
187
00:11:17.960 --> 00:11:18.840
Where'd you get there?
188
00:11:19.440 --> 00:11:20.039
In Libya?
189
00:11:22.279 --> 00:11:26.879
Look solid to me? It's a solid gold all right,
190
00:11:27.720 --> 00:11:32.000
strange design. I got it in a strange shower, two
191
00:11:32.080 --> 00:11:35.879
hundred bar No, okay, I'll take it. I'll buy it
192
00:11:35.919 --> 00:11:38.080
back in a couple of days before I ship out again.
193
00:11:38.519 --> 00:11:39.879
Okay, fill off the car.
194
00:11:40.919 --> 00:11:48.879
I'll get your cash. Want some desert, honey, not on
195
00:11:48.919 --> 00:11:49.440
your loans.
196
00:11:49.679 --> 00:11:50.759
I'm wanting my figure.
197
00:11:51.519 --> 00:11:53.960
So am, I looks pretty good from where I sit.
198
00:11:54.919 --> 00:11:56.159
It's good to have you back.
199
00:11:56.559 --> 00:12:01.000
I missed you. I thought of you every minute here.
200
00:12:01.799 --> 00:12:04.000
This will prove it. I was saving a craft of
201
00:12:04.080 --> 00:12:07.039
dinner for me, of course for you. Who else?
202
00:12:08.240 --> 00:12:09.480
I love surprises.
203
00:12:09.720 --> 00:12:11.919
I bought it in a funny little store in some
204
00:12:11.960 --> 00:12:16.200
place called Derna. I gotta tell you about that. Oh, fusty,
205
00:12:16.679 --> 00:12:19.720
it's done toussy kind of thought you'd like it.
206
00:12:19.720 --> 00:12:22.279
It's got to be one of a kind. I've never
207
00:12:22.320 --> 00:12:25.480
been anything like it, and I know my jewelry.
208
00:12:25.519 --> 00:12:26.559
It's my business.
209
00:12:26.759 --> 00:12:29.039
Here, can help me with the class.
210
00:12:29.840 --> 00:12:33.519
Oh boy, looks even better on you. Seems to pick
211
00:12:33.600 --> 00:12:34.120
up a glow.
212
00:12:34.799 --> 00:12:36.960
Oh wait, I showed it to Mincha Road at.
213
00:12:36.840 --> 00:12:37.600
This door tomorrow.
214
00:12:37.879 --> 00:12:39.480
Let me tell you about the shop where I got it.
215
00:12:39.519 --> 00:12:41.480
And let's go back to my place for coffee. We'll
216
00:12:41.559 --> 00:12:42.320
be more comfortable.
217
00:12:42.360 --> 00:12:43.679
Okay, I'll pay the check. O.
218
00:12:43.799 --> 00:12:47.240
I'm just crazy about it. Okay, you're dropping your money.
219
00:12:48.720 --> 00:12:56.240
That's impossible, Rusty, what's the matter is coring? Geez?
220
00:12:56.240 --> 00:12:56.960
Where'd you get that?
221
00:12:57.519 --> 00:13:00.600
I couldn't have been in my pocket. I left it
222
00:13:00.639 --> 00:13:01.559
with a powmbroker.
223
00:13:01.840 --> 00:13:03.200
It's a beautiful coin.
224
00:13:03.879 --> 00:13:08.000
No why he got The shopkeeper where I bought your
225
00:13:08.039 --> 00:13:11.279
Luckett gave me this coin. I spotted a shop lifter.
226
00:13:11.360 --> 00:13:13.799
He gave me this as a reward. But I pawned
227
00:13:13.840 --> 00:13:16.639
this this afternoon. I got two hundred bucks. Now, how
228
00:13:16.639 --> 00:13:18.000
can I have it in my pocket?
229
00:13:18.360 --> 00:13:21.200
You probably forgot to leave it with the pombroker.
230
00:13:21.519 --> 00:13:25.080
He wouldn't hand over the money without the coin. I
231
00:13:25.120 --> 00:13:27.039
don't see how else it could have happened. What do
232
00:13:27.039 --> 00:13:29.679
you think to do. I'll go back there tomorrow and
233
00:13:29.720 --> 00:13:32.279
give it to him. I got the money, but he
234
00:13:32.320 --> 00:13:33.399
didn't get the coin.
235
00:13:37.039 --> 00:13:39.960
Yeah, oh, be for it already.
236
00:13:40.639 --> 00:13:43.480
I got an apology to make. I forgot to leave
237
00:13:43.519 --> 00:13:46.440
the coin with you. Well, you gave me two hundred
238
00:13:46.440 --> 00:13:48.919
dollars for a gold coin yesterday, but last night I
239
00:13:48.919 --> 00:13:50.720
found it in my pocket here.
240
00:13:52.360 --> 00:13:57.679
I don't get it. That's the coin, at least I
241
00:13:57.919 --> 00:13:58.720
think I did.
242
00:14:00.159 --> 00:14:02.679
You're sure pain a second, It should be in a
243
00:14:02.720 --> 00:14:06.799
brown envelope. He're on the top shof Well it ain't.
244
00:14:08.240 --> 00:14:11.279
You got the coin, okay, but probably dined If I
245
00:14:11.320 --> 00:14:12.320
know how that happened.
246
00:14:12.399 --> 00:14:16.080
Well, here it is it's yours still pay to champ
247
00:14:16.200 --> 00:14:20.399
believe just an oversight. No, I don't mean that. I
248
00:14:20.440 --> 00:14:22.519
can't believe anybody could be that on it.
249
00:14:26.759 --> 00:14:27.919
How long you've you gone this time?
250
00:14:28.720 --> 00:14:32.320
We're heading for England, probably four weeks, maybe five, But
251
00:14:32.360 --> 00:14:33.840
all right you I have.
252
00:14:33.879 --> 00:14:36.879
Your locket to remind you what time you have to
253
00:14:36.919 --> 00:14:37.440
be on board.
254
00:14:37.600 --> 00:14:38.080
In an hour.
255
00:14:38.360 --> 00:14:41.519
You gotta get killing. Oh oh, I just thought of something.
256
00:14:42.120 --> 00:14:45.639
I don't have the money to get back my coin. No, no, no,
257
00:14:45.759 --> 00:14:47.399
I don't mean it that way. I'll take care of
258
00:14:47.399 --> 00:14:49.480
it when I get back from England. But I want
259
00:14:49.559 --> 00:14:52.120
you to keep the pawn ticket. I'm sure don't want
260
00:14:52.120 --> 00:14:57.159
to lose that. Got it here someplace in one of
261
00:14:57.159 --> 00:15:03.519
my pockets. Well, that is curious. I thought I heard
262
00:15:03.559 --> 00:15:08.200
the clink of a coin. Could it be again? The
263
00:15:08.279 --> 00:15:10.960
last we heard, Rusty had taken his gold coin back
264
00:15:11.000 --> 00:15:13.600
to the pawnbroker for a second time, And here it
265
00:15:13.720 --> 00:15:17.080
is back. If you remember, at the start of our drama,
266
00:15:17.519 --> 00:15:20.759
Rusty was in jail for murder. How that comes about,
267
00:15:21.120 --> 00:15:32.200
We'll see when I returned shortly with that too. You've
268
00:15:32.240 --> 00:15:34.399
heard about people who keep turning up when are not
269
00:15:34.559 --> 00:15:37.600
wanted referred to as a bad penny. Well, it seems
270
00:15:37.639 --> 00:15:40.720
that Rusty west It's valuable gold coin, far from being
271
00:15:40.759 --> 00:15:44.200
a bad penny, nevertheless, is bound and determined to keep
272
00:15:44.279 --> 00:15:47.360
turning up. When we left Rusty, he was just an
273
00:15:47.440 --> 00:15:51.120
hour away from his next voyage and in his girlfriend's apartment.
274
00:15:51.320 --> 00:15:54.440
They were both surprised by Rusty.
275
00:15:56.039 --> 00:15:58.399
I'm looking. I don't believe it.
276
00:15:58.600 --> 00:15:59.639
Are you playing danger?
277
00:16:00.200 --> 00:16:01.159
No, Kim, I'm not.
278
00:16:01.679 --> 00:16:03.600
You had that coin in your pocket all the time.
279
00:16:04.120 --> 00:16:05.960
You're just trying to play them seventh.
280
00:16:05.720 --> 00:16:08.039
John, I swear to you the last time I saw
281
00:16:08.080 --> 00:16:11.039
that coin within the pawnbroker's safe, I saw him put
282
00:16:11.039 --> 00:16:11.399
it there.
283
00:16:11.559 --> 00:16:13.039
Well here take it.
284
00:16:13.559 --> 00:16:16.240
You look like you don't want to touch it. I
285
00:16:16.279 --> 00:16:20.679
still think you're pulling my leg, nasty.
286
00:16:21.279 --> 00:16:22.200
Nothing could matter.
287
00:16:22.840 --> 00:16:27.840
It's yours, as I said, it's really all ways be yours.
288
00:16:28.720 --> 00:16:30.919
Oh ow.
289
00:16:32.279 --> 00:16:36.399
Kim the shopkeeper and darner who gave it to me,
290
00:16:36.519 --> 00:16:40.600
he said it would always be mine, no one else
291
00:16:40.639 --> 00:16:44.639
could ever own it. I didn't take anything it at
292
00:16:44.679 --> 00:16:45.120
the time.
293
00:16:45.480 --> 00:16:46.600
You are serious.
294
00:16:47.080 --> 00:16:48.120
I even believe me.
295
00:16:48.360 --> 00:16:50.919
I don't know how or why or what kind of
296
00:16:51.039 --> 00:16:54.240
magic this is, but somehow that coin keeps coming back
297
00:16:54.320 --> 00:16:54.519
to me.
298
00:16:55.200 --> 00:16:56.799
I can't lose it, Rusty.
299
00:16:57.159 --> 00:16:59.360
That gives me the creep, got it?
300
00:16:59.519 --> 00:17:01.960
If I am, I'm not kidding, you really mean it.
301
00:17:03.200 --> 00:17:04.839
I want to make one more test to be sure
302
00:17:05.640 --> 00:17:08.039
what I mean test. I want to leave the coin
303
00:17:08.119 --> 00:17:11.359
with you, hide it, lock it up somewhere, and let's
304
00:17:11.359 --> 00:17:14.839
see what happened. I don't know that it can't hurt you,
305
00:17:15.759 --> 00:17:18.079
but I can't explain it. But nothing is going to
306
00:17:18.160 --> 00:17:18.720
happen to you.
307
00:17:20.720 --> 00:17:23.039
All right, I'll put it in a face deposit box
308
00:17:23.119 --> 00:17:25.599
to the bank. I don't want the thing around here.
309
00:17:25.799 --> 00:17:28.559
Okay, hold onto the pawn ticket and put the coin
310
00:17:28.680 --> 00:17:31.400
in the bank. And whatever you do, Kim, don't tell
311
00:17:31.559 --> 00:17:37.119
anyone about it, anyone. I made it to my ship
312
00:17:37.200 --> 00:17:41.200
in time, and we sailed with a night time. All
313
00:17:41.279 --> 00:17:45.759
I could think about was that strange coin. It can
314
00:17:45.960 --> 00:17:49.319
come back to me. There was just no way I
315
00:17:49.359 --> 00:17:52.119
could make a mistake with a pawnbroker a second time.
316
00:17:53.359 --> 00:17:56.319
And every minute of every day I wondered when and
317
00:17:56.440 --> 00:18:00.079
where it would come back again. The trip thing and
318
00:18:00.200 --> 00:18:03.480
was smooth and putting at Liverpool on a Friday morning,
319
00:18:03.920 --> 00:18:06.079
and that night Guy and I went out for a
320
00:18:06.279 --> 00:18:10.240
couple of beers. You're really serious, about making to see
321
00:18:10.319 --> 00:18:13.559
your life, kid, Maybe not for life a couple of
322
00:18:13.680 --> 00:18:16.119
years though. Hey he's good and I got no plan
323
00:18:16.279 --> 00:18:18.599
to settle down. Yeah, what about that gal backing a
324
00:18:18.640 --> 00:18:19.160
big apple?
325
00:18:20.160 --> 00:18:21.200
Kim's just a good friend.
326
00:18:21.480 --> 00:18:22.960
Hey, what do you say we get out of here
327
00:18:23.000 --> 00:18:25.920
and scare up some segments. Oh, I'll take care of
328
00:18:26.000 --> 00:18:28.680
the tab. I owe you a couple anyway. Okay, kid,
329
00:18:30.079 --> 00:18:35.960
Hey you drop something? Uh yeah, it's out of my
330
00:18:36.119 --> 00:18:39.519
pocket when I reached for my dough. Hey, this is
331
00:18:39.640 --> 00:18:43.119
some coin. Feels like solid gold. Yeah, yeah, it is
332
00:18:43.839 --> 00:18:46.920
good luck piece and sort of m hm. Must be
333
00:18:47.000 --> 00:18:49.720
worth plenty. Now you are to wear it around your
334
00:18:49.799 --> 00:18:53.559
neck or something. The way you're carrying around, you're gonna
335
00:18:53.599 --> 00:18:54.400
lose it for sure.
336
00:18:56.799 --> 00:18:58.720
So there it was again.
337
00:19:00.039 --> 00:19:03.079
I didn't notice how surprised and nervous I was, but
338
00:19:03.200 --> 00:19:06.160
I had to call Kim right away. I told guy
339
00:19:06.200 --> 00:19:08.480
I was going to manager, and I found a payphone
340
00:19:08.480 --> 00:19:10.079
at the back of the pub and put in a
341
00:19:10.119 --> 00:19:11.079
collect call to Kim.
342
00:19:12.480 --> 00:19:14.039
I knew you'd be calling Kim.
343
00:19:14.599 --> 00:19:17.720
It's back. It just fell at my feet minutes ago.
344
00:19:18.000 --> 00:19:20.880
I knew it was going to knew it was gone
345
00:19:20.920 --> 00:19:23.920
from the safety pibot box today, I drove the bank
346
00:19:24.000 --> 00:19:24.680
people crazy.
347
00:19:24.920 --> 00:19:26.039
I check it every morning.
348
00:19:26.119 --> 00:19:27.519
Sometimes I'd go on my lunch.
349
00:19:27.359 --> 00:19:30.920
Hour too, And today it was gone in my pocket.
350
00:19:31.079 --> 00:19:34.119
Right now, Rusty, I'm scared of that thing. Get rid
351
00:19:34.160 --> 00:19:36.920
of it, please, how can I?
352
00:19:39.079 --> 00:19:40.559
I didn't question it anymore.
353
00:19:41.440 --> 00:19:44.119
I just accepted the fact that I had a gold
354
00:19:44.240 --> 00:19:46.480
coin and would somehow come back to me, no matter
355
00:19:46.559 --> 00:19:49.200
what I did with it, no matter where I was.
356
00:19:50.400 --> 00:19:53.240
After all, Jim would lock it up in a safe
357
00:19:53.240 --> 00:19:56.079
deposit box in New York and had reached me in England,
358
00:19:57.319 --> 00:20:01.319
and I began to realize how I could make some
359
00:20:01.559 --> 00:20:07.880
money with it. We were doomed to sail the following
360
00:20:08.000 --> 00:20:11.319
night back to New York. The next morning, I slipped ashore.
361
00:20:12.000 --> 00:20:14.240
I bought a newspaper and looked up a coin dealer.
362
00:20:14.599 --> 00:20:15.920
I found one in the West End.
363
00:20:16.559 --> 00:20:17.319
Here, I breathed.
364
00:20:17.799 --> 00:20:20.519
He paid me five hundred dollars for it American cash.
365
00:20:21.240 --> 00:20:23.279
I went back to the ship, knowing that before I
366
00:20:23.400 --> 00:20:25.359
got back to New York the coin would.
367
00:20:25.200 --> 00:20:26.039
Be at my feet.
368
00:20:26.880 --> 00:20:31.400
It was my goose rang the golden ache. The trip
369
00:20:31.559 --> 00:20:34.240
back to New York was as uneventful as the trip over.
370
00:20:35.000 --> 00:20:39.319
Nothing to relieve them or Nott me, but okay, guys,
371
00:20:39.440 --> 00:20:43.119
five card draw this O me okay, first cart down,

Uh ten bucks Tendnesday a rice five doose and the
376
00:21:00.400 --> 00:21:03.000
Queen the races bed twenty.
377
00:21:04.240 --> 00:21:04.599
I'm up.
378
00:21:07.319 --> 00:21:09.079
Just when it looked like I had a change of
379
00:21:09.160 --> 00:21:13.720
taking a pot, they all folded except guy. He was
380
00:21:13.799 --> 00:21:16.920
looking straight at me. He had a can and Queen
381
00:21:16.960 --> 00:21:20.559
of hearts showing, got much to bet on? I saw
382
00:21:20.720 --> 00:21:24.160
my change that I kill him fading fast, Ah, buy
383
00:21:24.200 --> 00:21:30.880
another card? Ten fine arts, Uh, there's two bits, uh
384
00:21:31.599 --> 00:21:33.680
twenty raised twenty.
385
00:21:34.359 --> 00:21:34.640
I'm in.
386
00:21:35.759 --> 00:21:42.920
Last card probably race and king arts well raises beds
387
00:21:43.279 --> 00:21:43.799
or do you say?
388
00:21:43.880 --> 00:21:50.200
Kid? Four aces? I couldn't believe it. This was my
389
00:21:50.400 --> 00:21:51.240
pot for sure.
390
00:21:51.960 --> 00:21:54.599
Guy had a possible flush with four hearts showing, but
391
00:21:54.720 --> 00:21:58.400
I knew this one was mine and we had fifty
392
00:21:58.440 --> 00:21:58.960
bucks left.
393
00:21:59.000 --> 00:22:02.160
But I couldn't blue. I bet it all.
394
00:22:03.880 --> 00:22:09.039
Three aces, bet fifty. Well, the kids playing by high stakes,
395
00:22:09.200 --> 00:22:14.000
we're gonna see me. George, George, raise you fifty, raise
396
00:22:14.559 --> 00:22:19.319
raise fifty. I'm out of girl. You's sure, right, kid,
397
00:22:19.880 --> 00:22:22.799
unless you can raise fifty bucks to see me. Now,
398
00:22:22.960 --> 00:22:25.440
I might have a flush I got for a hard showing,
399
00:22:26.079 --> 00:22:29.200
but then you'd win. But if that whole card happens
400
00:22:29.240 --> 00:22:32.960
to be a jack, well, hey, maybe I'm bluffing her.
401
00:22:33.920 --> 00:22:36.920
You'll never find out unless you can call What do
402
00:22:37.000 --> 00:22:42.240
you say, kid, I'll call you here. You're gonna bet
403
00:22:42.319 --> 00:22:45.359
that coin. But that's a pure goal. You told me
404
00:22:45.480 --> 00:22:48.759
it's worth hundreds of bucks. I'm seeing you now, Look, kid,
405
00:22:48.880 --> 00:22:50.000
I don't want I am in.
406
00:22:51.119 --> 00:22:51.920
Let's see what you got.
407
00:22:52.960 --> 00:22:57.599
Okay, kid, read him and leave straight? Flush nine ten,
408
00:22:58.400 --> 00:22:59.240
Jack in the hole.
409
00:23:00.039 --> 00:23:01.599
Queen and the King.
410
00:23:02.759 --> 00:23:07.359
Right, I got four races? Brothering else would beat you, kid,
411
00:23:07.440 --> 00:23:11.640
but four aces fit was my pot. Look, I'm sorry, kid,
412
00:23:11.720 --> 00:23:14.680
but Devin belongs. I warned you about getting into these games.
413
00:23:15.119 --> 00:23:17.000
You wanted to learn the road, so you just said
414
00:23:17.039 --> 00:23:18.920
your first lesson. I bet it would have been different
415
00:23:18.960 --> 00:23:20.119
if someone else was dealing.
416
00:23:21.480 --> 00:23:22.160
What was that?
417
00:23:22.279 --> 00:23:24.559
And I see it now? You set me up with
418
00:23:24.640 --> 00:23:26.000
four races to beat me with a fly?
419
00:23:26.279 --> 00:23:29.680
Hey, hold on, kid, are you excusing me? And you
420
00:23:29.880 --> 00:23:32.079
just said I said nothing of the kind?
421
00:23:32.519 --> 00:23:36.240
Now, nobody calls guy Fowler a cheat. It definitely no
422
00:23:36.440 --> 00:23:42.799
green white here now that was a second lesson, kid,
423
00:23:43.599 --> 00:23:45.720
And don't expect your gold coin back now.
424
00:23:46.200 --> 00:23:47.319
I might have thought about letting you.
425
00:23:47.359 --> 00:23:50.799
Win it back, but now I'll get it back. I
426
00:23:50.920 --> 00:23:53.000
don't need a cheap card game to do it. I
427
00:23:53.119 --> 00:23:55.559
am gonna get that coin back. I asked him for
428
00:23:55.680 --> 00:23:56.680
less than three kid.
429
00:23:57.279 --> 00:24:04.440
Yeah, well here's one person cabin. I never telegraph a
430
00:24:04.599 --> 00:24:05.240
funch kid.
431
00:24:06.039 --> 00:24:08.480
Hey you guys, I take you noise bunk.
432
00:24:08.599 --> 00:24:08.759
Huh.
433
00:24:09.359 --> 00:24:16.480
I'm going to my cabin and count my doll. I
434
00:24:16.680 --> 00:24:20.160
woke up at two am with something hammering in my head.
435
00:24:21.680 --> 00:24:25.519
Guy sure had laid on one. It was dark, and
436
00:24:26.240 --> 00:24:29.519
I had a thirst like an elephant. I started for
437
00:24:29.640 --> 00:24:32.559
the head for a drink of water. As I passed
438
00:24:32.640 --> 00:24:37.480
Guy's cabin, I heard voices why. I wanted to avoid
439
00:24:37.599 --> 00:24:39.680
him for the rest of the night. So I got
440
00:24:39.799 --> 00:24:42.759
my drink and went back to my bunk. And the
441
00:24:42.920 --> 00:24:47.319
next morning all hell broke loose. The guy was found
442
00:24:47.400 --> 00:24:54.000
in his cabin dead. The captain took charge of the
443
00:24:54.079 --> 00:24:56.720
situation and put Guy's cabin out of bounds for the
444
00:24:56.799 --> 00:24:59.960
rest of the voyage, and then he started asking questions
445
00:25:00.079 --> 00:25:02.680
and learned about the poker game in Francus.
446
00:25:03.319 --> 00:25:05.279
He called me to his cabin.
447
00:25:06.480 --> 00:25:08.480
And I then say, you and follower had a fight
448
00:25:08.640 --> 00:25:12.400
last night. Well it wasn't a fight, Sari. He decked
449
00:25:12.400 --> 00:25:15.480
me twice. He accused him of cheating one day I did.
450
00:25:15.640 --> 00:25:17.920
But then there's something about a coin.
451
00:25:18.799 --> 00:25:19.039
Are you?
452
00:25:19.880 --> 00:25:22.640
Are you accusing me of killing guy captain? And I
453
00:25:22.720 --> 00:25:25.880
can't accuse you right now, but you had a damn
454
00:25:25.960 --> 00:25:26.559
good motive.
455
00:25:27.480 --> 00:25:28.920
You threatened to get the coin.
456
00:25:28.839 --> 00:25:31.319
Back if I didn't it threaten. I'm told you said
457
00:25:31.359 --> 00:25:34.480
something like you'd get it back without another cheap poker game.
458
00:25:35.680 --> 00:25:40.039
The Follower's dead and the coin is missing. I personally
459
00:25:40.079 --> 00:25:44.880
searched this body, his cabin, and his gear. It's missing.
460
00:25:45.799 --> 00:25:49.960
It's the motive for the killing. That and revenge man
461
00:25:50.000 --> 00:25:53.000
that I can't prove anything, nor do I intend.
462
00:25:52.680 --> 00:25:54.440
To the authorities in.
463
00:25:54.480 --> 00:25:57.400
New York will take care of a captain. Last night
464
00:25:57.640 --> 00:26:00.599
I went for a drink of water. I passed and
465
00:26:00.759 --> 00:26:02.759
I heard voices. Now I don't know who it was,
466
00:26:02.920 --> 00:26:07.000
but somebody was there. We think I'm on rusty. Don't
467
00:26:07.000 --> 00:26:09.960
expect me to buy that. Are there any witnesses to
468
00:26:10.119 --> 00:26:13.440
back up this story? When no Sarah was alone? But
469
00:26:13.680 --> 00:26:17.720
I swear I'm having you and your gear searched, which
470
00:26:17.720 --> 00:26:20.480
I probably got rid of the coin by now. I
471
00:26:20.680 --> 00:26:23.519
just don't buy anyone else having a reason of smashing
472
00:26:23.640 --> 00:26:28.559
fouler skull. But who else knew about the coin? Edwards
473
00:26:28.640 --> 00:26:32.200
and King were in on the game, Sir above suspicion.
474
00:26:32.799 --> 00:26:35.400
They've been shipping with Fowler for years. Maybe he showed
475
00:26:35.440 --> 00:26:37.559
it to someone else, and then maybe they killed him
476
00:26:37.880 --> 00:26:42.559
just for a lousy coin. No, rusty, why don't you
477
00:26:42.640 --> 00:26:43.400
give me the truth?
478
00:26:44.319 --> 00:26:45.359
Make it easy on all.
479
00:26:45.240 --> 00:26:50.119
Of us, Captain, I didn't kill him. I went back
480
00:26:50.160 --> 00:26:53.559
to my quarter, shaking like a leaf. Who had killed die?
481
00:26:54.720 --> 00:26:55.839
Captain was funny about.
482
00:26:55.720 --> 00:26:58.200
Edwards and seen they were buddies, No grudge, no envy.
483
00:26:59.039 --> 00:27:01.799
Someone had seen the coin and tried to get it.
484
00:27:02.960 --> 00:27:05.039
I lay down on the bunk, trying his sort of
485
00:27:05.119 --> 00:27:10.960
beings out. When it happened, I looked up like a shot.
486
00:27:11.839 --> 00:27:14.799
The evidence against me was lying right at my feet.
487
00:27:15.599 --> 00:27:16.720
The coin went back.
488
00:27:17.839 --> 00:27:18.519
I picked it up.
489
00:27:19.319 --> 00:27:22.279
A wave of panic crushed over me. The Captain was
490
00:27:22.319 --> 00:27:24.519
going to search me. I had to get rid of it,
491
00:27:25.200 --> 00:27:26.559
even if it was only temporary.
492
00:27:26.640 --> 00:27:30.799
I went up on deck. Stiff wind tore at my jacket.
493
00:27:31.359 --> 00:27:32.279
The sea was heavy.
494
00:27:32.799 --> 00:27:35.720
I went to the rail, looked around, and hurled the
495
00:27:35.839 --> 00:27:42.400
coin into the water. Disappeared into the waves. I hurried
496
00:27:42.440 --> 00:27:45.519
back to my quarters. The captain and mate searched me
497
00:27:45.720 --> 00:27:48.039
and my quarters, and of course didn't find the coin.
498
00:27:48.720 --> 00:27:50.400
But I was in a panic.
499
00:27:51.440 --> 00:27:54.519
I see, I've been thinking this through. We didn't find
500
00:27:54.559 --> 00:27:57.319
a coin in your possession. There's not a shred of
501
00:27:57.359 --> 00:28:00.880
evidence against anyone. Yes, sir, you're so smart.
502
00:28:01.079 --> 00:28:01.319
I'm not.
503
00:28:01.759 --> 00:28:04.640
I am absolutely innocent. You were the one who threatened
504
00:28:04.640 --> 00:28:05.599
to get the coin back.
505
00:28:06.400 --> 00:28:07.359
You'll admit you said it.
506
00:28:08.279 --> 00:28:13.920
Why because the coin is Yes, what is it?
507
00:28:15.680 --> 00:28:16.559
You won't believe it.
508
00:28:17.440 --> 00:28:20.720
I believe you're guilty of killing Fowler, and I won't
509
00:28:20.759 --> 00:28:22.680
listen any more tall tales of yours.
510
00:28:23.960 --> 00:28:25.079
Will you tell me the truth?
511
00:28:26.880 --> 00:28:35.240
Well, here we go again, but this time Rusty isn't51200:28:35.240 --> 00:28:36.200
so happy to see.51300:28:36.079 --> 00:28:36.799
The coin return.51400:28:37.359 --> 00:28:40.440
Indeed, he did come back at the most inappropriate time.51500:28:41.119 --> 00:28:41.839
It seems that the.51600:28:41.880 --> 00:28:44.960
Goose that was to lay the golden egg is liable51700:28:45.039 --> 00:28:48.440
to cook Rusty's goose, if I may be permitted an51800:28:48.480 --> 00:28:51.799
appropriate cluche. But we can hardly blame the poor coin.51900:28:52.240 --> 00:28:54.960
It's only doing what it has to do. We'll see52000:28:55.000 --> 00:28:58.200
what deeper trouble lies ahead for Rusty when I returned52100:28:58.240 --> 00:29:07.359
shortly with Act three. He's curious how loyalty and devotion52200:29:07.559 --> 00:29:12.480
can sometimes innocently work to one's disadvantage. Rusty West's Royal52300:29:12.599 --> 00:29:15.920
gold coin has once again returned to its owner, only52400:29:16.039 --> 00:29:19.680
to incriminate Rusty in murder. Perhaps, if the coin had52500:29:19.720 --> 00:29:23.279
picked a more auspicious time to make its appearance, Rusty might.52600:29:23.240 --> 00:29:26.480
Have kept its secret forever. But as we said before,52700:29:26.759 --> 00:29:29.640
one can't blame the coin. It only did what it52800:29:29.759 --> 00:29:32.720
had to do the coin.52900:29:33.839 --> 00:29:37.079
The coin fell out of your pocket, a coin follow53000:29:37.160 --> 00:29:38.839
won from you last night before.53100:29:38.559 --> 00:29:39.160
He was murdered.53200:29:39.599 --> 00:29:42.599
It is the coin, sir, But I didn't kill him53300:29:42.640 --> 00:29:44.759
for it. I knew I was going to get.53400:29:44.680 --> 00:29:45.480
The coin bags.53500:29:45.599 --> 00:29:47.680
I signed to corriders for the rest of the voyage.53600:29:48.599 --> 00:29:50.720
When we reached the port of New York, I'm turning53700:29:50.799 --> 00:29:58.000
over to the authorities. I'm a charge of murder. So53800:29:58.200 --> 00:30:02.720
that's it, mister Barr. That's the whole story. The captain53900:30:02.799 --> 00:30:05.279
took the coin. The police were waiting for us at54000:30:05.319 --> 00:30:10.759
Peer fifty seven, and here I am. That's some story.54100:30:11.519 --> 00:30:15.640
It's the truth. You swear that the coin by some54200:30:15.920 --> 00:30:20.119
magic just mysteriously came back. That's what I've been saying54300:30:20.240 --> 00:30:23.319
for the last half hour. How can I take that54400:30:23.440 --> 00:30:27.160
story into a courtroom? We might just as well plead insanity.54500:30:28.559 --> 00:30:31.519
You believe it's liable to turn up any minute?54600:30:31.519 --> 00:30:32.599
Well, I never know when.54700:30:33.480 --> 00:30:35.279
If it hadn't shown up in front of the captain,54800:30:35.319 --> 00:30:39.720
I might not be here now. Coins being held with evidence.54900:30:41.200 --> 00:30:43.519
It's the one solemn piece against you. Yeah, I know that,55000:30:43.680 --> 00:30:46.440
but I wouldn't have any reason to kill guy for55100:30:46.559 --> 00:30:49.680
that coin. I knew it would come back to me automatically.55200:30:49.839 --> 00:30:51.640
That's what I.55300:30:51.720 --> 00:30:53.920
Meant when I said it. Did you tell the men55400:30:53.960 --> 00:30:55.119
of the captain what you meant?55500:30:55.240 --> 00:30:59.240
Oh? How could I did think I was crazy? Well,55600:30:59.359 --> 00:31:03.319
the prosecuto has a job ahead of him. The profession55700:31:03.359 --> 00:31:06.160
of the coin doesn't prove you killed the man, and55800:31:06.319 --> 00:31:07.519
that's what he has to prove.55900:31:07.440 --> 00:31:10.400
To the jury's satisfaction. Oh what are we going to do?56000:31:11.039 --> 00:31:11.920
I'm not sure yet.56100:31:13.799 --> 00:31:17.240
I have to think this through carefully, because if we56200:31:17.359 --> 00:31:18.839
do what I'm thinking of now.56300:31:20.559 --> 00:31:22.200
This could be the case of the century.56400:31:28.559 --> 00:31:29.519
Honey, what are they're doing?56500:31:29.839 --> 00:31:30.440
You hume?56600:31:31.480 --> 00:31:33.599
They said I had a visitor. I shouldn't think you56700:31:33.839 --> 00:31:37.000
didn't choose that man. You couldn't, of course, not honey,56800:31:37.160 --> 00:31:41.680
didn't hide did, but the coin and then who was56900:31:41.799 --> 00:31:44.160
murdered wanted from me in a poker game. They thought57000:31:44.200 --> 00:31:45.880
I'd killed him, but you.57100:31:46.000 --> 00:31:46.960
Told me you didn't.57200:31:47.559 --> 00:31:48.920
Why they got you lost up.57300:31:49.000 --> 00:31:51.240
It's not as easy as that for them. I'm guilty.57400:31:51.359 --> 00:31:53.079
They don't know what that coin does.57500:31:53.559 --> 00:31:56.640
I knew it meant trouble you. Remember, I was afraid57600:31:56.680 --> 00:31:56.839
of it.57700:31:56.920 --> 00:31:58.920
I begged you to get rid of it. I can't57800:31:58.960 --> 00:32:02.680
get rid of it. That's the all trouble. I'm scared, Kim.57900:32:03.680 --> 00:32:05.920
I didn't kill a guy, he was my friend. How58000:32:06.000 --> 00:32:07.160
can I make them believe it?58100:32:07.680 --> 00:32:11.319
Your lawyer will find a way, Rusty, That's what lawyers before.58200:32:12.480 --> 00:32:14.240
And I'll stand by you even know that.58300:32:15.000 --> 00:32:16.720
Yeah, yeah, I know, Kim.58400:32:17.640 --> 00:32:19.319
I can tell him about the coin and how you58500:32:19.400 --> 00:32:20.000
got it back.58600:32:21.480 --> 00:32:23.240
We'll have to see what the lawyer wants to do.58700:32:24.559 --> 00:32:32.839
I sure hope he's got something, Rusbie. I've made up58800:32:32.880 --> 00:32:35.880
my mind. I'm going to put you on the stamp58900:32:35.960 --> 00:32:38.039
to tell your story, just as you told it to me.59000:32:39.039 --> 00:32:43.240
It's your only defense. You wouldn't kill anyone for the59100:32:43.359 --> 00:32:47.519
coin because you knew you'd get it back supernaturally. But59200:32:47.680 --> 00:32:50.640
that's what I've been saying. Is there any way we59300:32:50.759 --> 00:32:53.880
can count on the coin coming back now while you're59400:32:53.880 --> 00:32:56.759
in jail, because if you could produce the coin now,59500:32:58.240 --> 00:33:01.119
they'd have to believe your story. You sounds as though59600:33:01.240 --> 00:33:05.200
you do believe me. I'm going into this trial believing you.59700:33:06.359 --> 00:33:09.599
I'm going in admitting that I believe in the magic59800:33:09.680 --> 00:33:10.240
of that coin.59900:33:11.680 --> 00:33:11.799
Now.60000:33:11.880 --> 00:33:14.480
Do I have your absolute solemn word that all you've60100:33:14.519 --> 00:33:15.279
told me is true?60200:33:15.519 --> 00:33:15.640
Oh?60300:33:15.759 --> 00:33:18.480
You do, and even kim Oi'll tell you about the60400:33:18.519 --> 00:33:20.200
safe deposit box I plan.60500:33:20.160 --> 00:33:22.359
To call it. I believe you.60600:33:24.160 --> 00:33:31.240
Now, we've got to make them believe I'm satisfied with60700:33:31.319 --> 00:33:34.079
the jury Rusty. We've got their interest, I've got the60800:33:34.160 --> 00:33:38.039
whole court intrigued. I want to keep up this atmosphere.60900:33:38.480 --> 00:33:41.079
I want to make them feel the spirit world breathing61000:33:41.200 --> 00:33:43.880
down their backs. You sure know what you're doing. I61100:33:44.000 --> 00:33:46.880
feel a lot better knowing I've got an experienced lawyer.61200:33:47.079 --> 00:33:47.559
A rusty.61300:33:48.599 --> 00:33:51.759
An experienced lawyer wouldn't dare plead the case I'm going to,61400:33:52.920 --> 00:34:00.319
And you happen to be my first criminal case. Things61500:34:00.400 --> 00:34:04.759
Sherlock Black for me, Mister Barr only temporarily. The testimony61600:34:04.759 --> 00:34:06.960
of the captain and the two shipmates today didn't help,61700:34:08.079 --> 00:34:10.320
but the court hasn't heard you yet. I wish i'd61800:34:10.400 --> 00:34:12.639
never found that shop in Dern. I wish i'd never.61900:34:12.599 --> 00:34:13.519
Seen that coin.62000:34:13.719 --> 00:34:16.320
Tomorrow, I'm putting you on the stand and I want62100:34:16.400 --> 00:34:19.159
you to tell your story to the court exactly as62200:34:19.199 --> 00:34:26.559
you told it to me. Now, mister West, will you62300:34:26.719 --> 00:34:28.880
tell the court in your own words what happened.62400:34:28.599 --> 00:34:30.199
To you from the beginning.62500:34:31.519 --> 00:34:35.719
I'm a merchant seaman, and two months ago I had62600:34:35.840 --> 00:34:43.159
surely been a town called Durna in Libya. And then62700:34:43.519 --> 00:34:45.840
right in front of the captain, the coin fell to62800:34:45.960 --> 00:34:46.360
my feet.62900:34:46.880 --> 00:34:50.199
So the coin returned again of its owner.63000:34:50.280 --> 00:34:50.480
Court.63100:34:50.639 --> 00:34:53.760
Yes, Sir, I wouldn't have killed guy for that coin.63200:34:53.920 --> 00:34:56.800
I wouldn't kill anyone, but I knew i'd get the63300:34:56.880 --> 00:34:59.719
coin back. That's why I said it, and that's the63400:34:59.760 --> 00:35:01.639
true I didn't kill him.63500:35:06.119 --> 00:35:07.000
Anon. It's Morgan.63600:35:07.639 --> 00:35:10.840
Before he sailed for England. The defendant gave you the63700:35:10.920 --> 00:35:14.119
coin in question ages and what did you do with it?63800:35:14.559 --> 00:35:16.639
I put it in a fafty post box, just like63900:35:16.760 --> 00:35:20.039
first he told you, at National Bank on forty first Street.64000:35:20.639 --> 00:35:22.920
I checked it every day, sometimes twice.64100:35:23.440 --> 00:35:26.320
I go the bank, people crazy, and each time you64200:35:26.440 --> 00:35:30.719
inspected the safe deposit box. The coin was there until64300:35:30.800 --> 00:35:36.800
May fourteenth, And on May fourteenth it was gone. The64400:35:36.920 --> 00:35:37.719
box was empty.64500:35:39.039 --> 00:35:41.880
And then and that day.64600:35:42.280 --> 00:35:44.639
Rusty called me from Liverpool to say he had just64700:35:44.719 --> 00:35:45.400
gotten it back.64800:35:46.400 --> 00:35:47.280
And that's the truth.64900:35:51.079 --> 00:35:54.800
Yeah, yeah, I remember the guy he pawned a gold car.65000:35:55.360 --> 00:35:56.880
Will you tell the court what happened?65100:35:57.119 --> 00:35:58.760
I gave him two hundred bucks for the car, and65200:35:58.880 --> 00:36:01.480
and he comes in next day and he gives me65300:36:01.599 --> 00:36:04.519
the very same coiny poem said, you must have forgotten65400:36:04.559 --> 00:36:05.199
to give it to me.65500:36:05.719 --> 00:36:06.960
You were obviously surprised.65600:36:07.320 --> 00:36:09.639
Yeah, I knew. I locked it up in my safe65700:36:09.679 --> 00:36:12.119
and I always keep the small stuff in the day.65800:36:12.559 --> 00:36:13.440
And then what did you do?65900:36:13.719 --> 00:36:17.199
Well, I've locked it up again, and this time I66000:36:17.320 --> 00:36:20.360
made sure I checked it just before I closed for66100:36:20.400 --> 00:36:23.400
the knife, and it was in the safe at the time.66200:36:23.840 --> 00:36:24.280
That's right.66300:36:25.000 --> 00:36:28.320
A few days later it was God never been able66400:36:28.400 --> 00:36:29.079
to find it again.66500:36:29.400 --> 00:36:33.599
A may I have exhibit A please? Thank you? Is66600:36:34.039 --> 00:36:36.639
this the coin the defendant pawn with you, mister Shaffer?66700:36:37.039 --> 00:36:37.360
That's it.66800:36:38.320 --> 00:36:39.639
I recognize the design.66900:36:40.199 --> 00:36:40.559
That's it.67000:36:40.719 --> 00:36:49.760
Okay, that guy owes me two hundred bucks. And in conclusion,67100:36:50.559 --> 00:36:54.239
we submit that the coin has or had the mystical.67200:36:53.880 --> 00:36:55.199
Property to act on its own.67300:36:56.239 --> 00:36:59.199
The story of the defendant is true, as born out67400:36:59.199 --> 00:37:01.000
by the testimony under oath.67500:37:01.239 --> 00:37:02.719
Of Miss Morgan and mister Shaeffer.67600:37:03.840 --> 00:37:06.639
So I am for you, ladies and gentlemen, to keep67700:37:06.760 --> 00:37:11.159
foremost in your minds and deliberation, that Rusty West did67800:37:11.320 --> 00:37:15.000
not murder to get his coin back. He knew he67900:37:15.039 --> 00:37:19.840
would get it back anyway. The defense read.68000:37:21.920 --> 00:37:25.440
The testimony in this case seems to be without president.68100:37:26.039 --> 00:37:27.880
In fact, it seems also to.68200:37:27.880 --> 00:37:32.039
Be without credibility. I am instruct seeing the bailiff to68300:37:32.280 --> 00:37:35.920
Locke exhibit a the coin in question in a double68400:37:36.079 --> 00:37:39.159
lock tamper proof container, and.68500:37:39.280 --> 00:37:41.000
One of the keys will be given to me.68600:37:41.480 --> 00:37:45.199
We shall woo out sleight of hand in this preposterous case.68700:37:45.880 --> 00:37:50.280
Should be coin subsequently be found in the possession of68800:37:50.400 --> 00:37:54.239
the defendant, I shall have no choice but to declare68900:37:54.239 --> 00:37:54.960
a mistrial.69000:37:55.559 --> 00:37:57.599
We hear the prosecution firmation.69100:37:57.400 --> 00:37:59.960
Tomorrow at ten am court stand.69200:38:03.239 --> 00:38:06.239
Nobody's going to believe it. Don't give up, Rusty. I've69300:38:06.280 --> 00:38:09.280
got one work. It's about what's the matter that man69400:38:09.599 --> 00:38:12.000
going out the door. The white coin mustache.69500:38:12.039 --> 00:38:13.400
If you eat the man in the shop, but.69600:38:13.400 --> 00:38:14.440
One gave me the coin?69700:38:14.639 --> 00:38:15.639
What catch him?69800:38:15.679 --> 00:38:17.840
Please stop him? I'll dry.69900:38:24.360 --> 00:38:29.000
You didn't get him, eh, he vanished. He wasn't anywhere70000:38:29.039 --> 00:38:32.920
in the hall when I got there, Too bad. You70100:38:33.079 --> 00:38:35.239
might have clinched our case. Well, I hadn't seen him70200:38:35.280 --> 00:38:36.400
in a cart room earlier.70300:38:37.039 --> 00:38:38.119
He must have been there, though.70400:38:39.239 --> 00:38:41.920
What would he be doing here all the way from Libya?70500:38:42.880 --> 00:38:45.599
I think he's come to get his coin back. What70600:38:46.880 --> 00:38:49.119
he told me, He had his own ways of getting70700:38:49.159 --> 00:38:53.480
his merchandise back. And you'll never see that coin again.70800:38:54.320 --> 00:38:56.199
How can you be so sure that that was the70900:38:56.280 --> 00:38:57.360
man it was?71000:38:57.559 --> 00:38:57.800
I know?71100:38:58.800 --> 00:38:58.920
Then?71200:38:59.000 --> 00:39:02.000
Why would he take it back? You said he gave71300:39:02.039 --> 00:39:05.840
it to you in friendship? Ill No, But if the71400:39:05.920 --> 00:39:09.000
coin was coming back to me, it would have been71500:39:09.039 --> 00:39:12.360
here before now. I still don't see the connection between71600:39:12.480 --> 00:39:16.280
him here and the trial. Why didn't he come forward71700:39:16.320 --> 00:39:18.199
to help? I'm thinking of a way he looked at71800:39:18.239 --> 00:39:21.000
me just before he went out. I think maybe he71900:39:21.079 --> 00:39:23.679
knew I was making money on the coin, pawning it72000:39:23.800 --> 00:39:27.440
and selling it and gambling with it. Maybe he didn't72100:39:27.679 --> 00:39:30.800
like that. Maybe he thought I was just using it.72200:39:33.280 --> 00:39:36.639
I guess I'm through with that now. Maybe it's just72300:39:36.719 --> 00:39:40.039
as well and got me in enough trouble. And if72400:39:40.079 --> 00:39:42.800
the jury finds me guilty, I guess it doesn't matter72500:39:42.960 --> 00:39:43.599
much anymore.72600:39:48.360 --> 00:39:49.320
It is a gentlemen.72700:39:50.119 --> 00:39:54.079
You must decide this case on circumstantial evidence, on the72800:39:54.400 --> 00:39:58.599
testimony of the prosecution witnesses who claimed the defendant produced72900:39:58.639 --> 00:40:01.480
the coin himself and wh there are no magic involved,73000:40:02.320 --> 00:40:05.920
And on the testimony of the defense witnesses who swear73100:40:06.119 --> 00:40:11.039
the coin vanished mysteriously from their possession. Before sending the73200:40:11.159 --> 00:40:15.000
jury to their deliberation, May I ask if the defendant73300:40:15.079 --> 00:40:16.440
can produce the coin.73400:40:16.760 --> 00:40:20.360
It is now locked in a steel box. It's whereabouts73500:40:20.599 --> 00:40:24.320
known only to me and the bailer, Your honor, we73600:40:24.400 --> 00:40:27.519
would be a jury will decide whom to believe.73700:40:28.119 --> 00:40:31.360
They escort the jury to the jury room.73800:40:37.519 --> 00:40:39.880
I scared, mister barsh hanging musty.73900:40:40.280 --> 00:40:40.880
We don't know what.74000:40:42.960 --> 00:40:45.719
The jury is coming back. It's only been forty minutes,74100:40:45.760 --> 00:40:48.039
so what does that mean. I didn't take them long74200:40:48.119 --> 00:40:50.679
to decide it. But it doesn't look good.74300:40:51.239 --> 00:40:54.880
But I knew said I'm as guilty.74400:40:57.559 --> 00:41:03.320
The defendant will rise and face the jury, Madam Boorman,74500:41:03.719 --> 00:41:04.880
have you reached a verdict?74600:41:05.159 --> 00:41:09.519
We have your honor, I'll say you. We find the defendant.74700:41:10.400 --> 00:41:18.519
Well, Rusty's gold coin has made an auspicious appearance after all.74800:41:19.159 --> 00:41:22.760
Reporters are crowding in now, flash bugs are popping. This74900:41:22.960 --> 00:41:25.320
case is attracted so much attention in the press it75000:41:25.360 --> 00:41:28.239
will make the front pages again tomorrow. After this dramatic75100:41:28.320 --> 00:41:31.360
turn of events, King is hugging Rusty and crying.75200:41:31.920 --> 00:41:34.320
He's holding the coin above his head. The jerug is75300:41:34.360 --> 00:41:38.440
standing now. Two shots who even wrapped forward. The foreman75400:41:38.519 --> 00:41:40.199
never got a chance to deliver the verdict.75500:41:40.760 --> 00:41:42.079
We'll speculate on what it.75600:41:42.119 --> 00:41:52.800
Might have been when I returned shortly. What do you75700:41:52.840 --> 00:41:56.320
think the jury's verdict was? We know Rusty wasn't guilty,75800:41:56.599 --> 00:41:58.000
but did the jury think so?75900:41:59.000 --> 00:41:59.599
We'll never know.76000:42:00.199 --> 00:42:02.280
The judge did as he said he would, then declared76100:42:02.280 --> 00:42:05.679
a mistrial. The truth of Rusty's strange story was so76200:42:05.880 --> 00:42:10.239
graphically and dramatically substantiated. He eventually went free, and the76300:42:10.360 --> 00:42:13.079
case became such a cause celeb that every now and76400:42:13.159 --> 00:42:16.239
then the cranks and the crackpots would successfully steal a76500:42:16.320 --> 00:42:17.880
Rusty's coin for a souvenir.76600:42:18.400 --> 00:42:19.760
But as all we.76700:42:22.800 --> 00:42:26.039
Our cast included Russell Horton, Betsy Beard, Lloyd Batista and76800:42:26.159 --> 00:42:29.960
Earl Hammond. The entire production was under the direction of76900:42:30.079 --> 00:42:30.760
Pymond Brown.77000:42:33.280 --> 00:42:36.599
Well, my dear, I do hope I have started the77100:42:36.679 --> 00:42:40.719
evening in a way you enjoy. I hope you're already77200:42:40.840 --> 00:42:44.679
having a very good time. There's so much to do,77300:42:45.360 --> 00:42:49.159
so much to experience as we head in to the77400:42:50.639 --> 00:42:56.039
special day for those like me at least. So let77500:42:56.159 --> 00:43:00.679
me get another pot of tea going. We're going to77600:43:00.760 --> 00:43:04.280
be here a while and the weather has turned so77700:43:04.760 --> 00:43:09.639
very cold. We're getting a taste of winter, a time77800:43:09.800 --> 00:43:14.119
when our minds begin to wander. But a wandering mind,77900:43:14.760 --> 00:43:18.239
well that's the devil's workshop.78000:43:27.519 --> 00:43:31.960
Good evening, friends, this is your host to welcome you78100:43:32.159 --> 00:43:35.199
through the creaking door into the inner sanctum.78200:43:36.360 --> 00:43:37.199
Come in, Come in.78300:43:38.519 --> 00:43:42.400
Well, I had my musical bannad on last night. We're78400:43:42.480 --> 00:43:47.320
looking for the last cord and I found it dumb78500:43:47.400 --> 00:43:50.800
Joko was wearing it as a necklace. I had to78600:43:50.840 --> 00:43:52.679
cut him loose from a ceiling.78700:43:52.400 --> 00:43:59.840
Beam to get the cord oh Son. Later on we78800:44:00.079 --> 00:44:05.119
sang sentimental songs. Everyone is so touched in the head.78900:44:06.400 --> 00:44:11.039
One game play got so hysterically fell on himself, ran79000:44:11.159 --> 00:44:12.039
himself through.79100:44:12.960 --> 00:44:21.800
There he lay dead, but no blood. The zombies. The79200:44:21.960 --> 00:44:22.880
party broke up.79300:44:22.960 --> 00:44:29.239
When everybody broke down, aes a little life of an79400:44:29.320 --> 00:44:31.960
evening can be deadly.79500:44:40.719 --> 00:44:42.519
The Night's Inner Sanctum mystery.79600:44:42.880 --> 00:44:46.880
The Devil's Workshop was written by John Robert and stars79700:44:46.960 --> 00:44:50.039
Mason Adams and the role of Tony, with Joan Banks79800:44:50.079 --> 00:44:50.559
as Tina.79900:44:55.320 --> 00:44:58.480
That story was specially devised to get you used to80000:44:59.639 --> 00:45:04.679
the winter chill. Just try to shrug it off. I80100:45:05.000 --> 00:45:10.880
tell you, our hero is Tony Murillo, creator of the80200:45:11.239 --> 00:45:16.960
Devil's Workshop, a talented young man with a genius for evil.80300:45:18.719 --> 00:45:22.440
The Devil's Workshop, I created it, and I live in it.80400:45:23.119 --> 00:45:25.880
Dealing with me is every murderer whoever amounted when it's in,80500:45:26.079 --> 00:45:30.599
hatchet men, pathological killers, bloody Mary, and the devil himself.80600:45:31.079 --> 00:45:33.440
We live in it, all of us, with one difference80700:45:33.519 --> 00:45:39.760
only I'm flesh and blood, and they're wax. My hands80800:45:40.000 --> 00:45:43.800
made them. It's a good business. I can't keep up80900:45:43.840 --> 00:45:46.480
with the cash orders pouring in from wax musines all81000:45:46.519 --> 00:45:50.440
over the world. It's a good business, except that sometimes81100:45:50.519 --> 00:45:52.000
it gets in the way of your love life.81200:45:52.039 --> 00:45:55.039
A little your girl wonders about.81300:45:54.760 --> 00:45:58.599
You sometimes, Tony, how did you ever fix some such81400:45:58.639 --> 00:46:00.599
a strange occupation?81500:46:01.159 --> 00:46:06.679
Maybe because I'm strange myself, and maybe because it's my name.81600:46:06.719 --> 00:46:10.559
Is Murilla Pillo? See that figure.81700:46:10.480 --> 00:46:14.679
Standing alongside the refrigeration room, the chubby little ball fellow81800:46:14.719 --> 00:46:18.760
with the face of an angel. Hmmm, he shot nine81900:46:18.920 --> 00:46:23.840
men before a sheriff's posse got he was Caesar Murillo.82000:46:30.079 --> 00:46:32.760
Sometimes your girl Tina forgets the blood around her is82100:46:32.840 --> 00:46:35.800
make believe in the lunatic faces of homicidal killers are82200:46:35.840 --> 00:46:36.440
only wax.82300:46:38.360 --> 00:46:40.880
Did bloody Mary just swing at you with her egs?82400:46:41.559 --> 00:46:41.599
No?82500:46:43.880 --> 00:46:45.639
No, no, not Mary. It was the devil.82600:46:45.880 --> 00:46:48.519
I could swear he move just now, Tony, Look what82700:46:48.639 --> 00:46:50.400
do you want me to see? The devil grinning and82800:46:50.480 --> 00:46:52.599
moving his lips. Look, Tony, I'm not crazy.82900:46:52.719 --> 00:46:57.400
Oh you're not crazy. He's always grinning and moving his lips,83000:46:59.440 --> 00:47:03.760
always and moving around the room, always restless. Today's behind83100:47:03.800 --> 00:47:06.960
this killer tomorrow that killer or watching hickman a butcher,83200:47:07.440 --> 00:47:09.719
and always grinning and moving his lips like he was83300:47:09.760 --> 00:47:10.320
egging them on.83400:47:12.639 --> 00:47:13.960
Do you know what you're saying?83500:47:17.920 --> 00:47:18.400
Forget it?83600:47:22.000 --> 00:47:26.360
Yeah, things happened to you in my kind of workshop.83700:47:27.079 --> 00:47:28.960
You turn in for the night on an iron army,83800:47:29.280 --> 00:47:32.079
and the shop comes alive. You're a wax and they're83900:47:32.159 --> 00:47:34.519
flesh and blood and all of them having a time84000:47:34.559 --> 00:47:38.280
of it for themselves with the devil did hid the rest?84100:47:38.320 --> 00:47:39.320
You can among.84200:47:44.239 --> 00:47:47.000
You wake up and there he is behind someone else84300:47:47.079 --> 00:47:52.039
for the day, or you wake up but he's gone.84400:47:53.000 --> 00:47:55.239
The Devil's no, we're in the workshop, and then he84500:47:55.320 --> 00:47:56.519
just dropped and went on the town.84600:47:57.320 --> 00:48:00.840
Tina, Yes, what are you trying to pull, Paul, I84700:48:00.880 --> 00:48:02.000
don't understand the devil.84800:48:02.039 --> 00:48:03.079
He's nowhere in the workshop.84900:48:03.320 --> 00:48:04.360
Tell me what are you saying?85000:48:04.440 --> 00:48:06.440
But you were here during the night and carry him off?85100:48:06.559 --> 00:48:07.599
Nobody else could have gotten in.85200:48:08.400 --> 00:48:11.639
Why should I steal your your devil?85300:48:15.159 --> 00:48:17.599
I reported it to the police as a theft to85400:48:17.719 --> 00:48:22.239
a sergeant Tracy. And somebody stole your devil? You say,85500:48:22.400 --> 00:48:25.119
a wax devil? Is there another cane?85600:48:26.320 --> 00:48:30.480
Hey, you were asleep when the door was locked? Yes,85700:48:31.320 --> 00:48:33.559
any windows to the loft so leading to a.85800:48:33.599 --> 00:48:35.840
Fire escape, but they were bolted from the inside.85900:48:36.280 --> 00:48:40.679
Well, if the door and windows were locked, how do86000:48:40.840 --> 00:48:42.719
you figure that robberator was worked?86100:48:43.719 --> 00:48:49.760
I don't know. Could he have walked down the devil86200:48:49.840 --> 00:48:53.199
at me? I don't know.86300:48:58.920 --> 00:49:01.119
I returned to the workshop by way of the docks.86400:49:02.159 --> 00:49:04.360
Just a door or two from the workshop, a man86500:49:04.519 --> 00:49:08.320
stopped me, A man in black, black, as if he86600:49:08.480 --> 00:49:11.920
was wearing the night around. He wore a hood. Just86700:49:12.039 --> 00:49:15.400
his eyes showed like small batteries of light. And make86800:49:15.480 --> 00:49:18.519
an up, cry, and I'll kill you. You're going to86900:49:18.639 --> 00:49:24.880
rob me. No commission, you commission me? You turn in Marilla. Hyes,87000:49:25.480 --> 00:49:30.039
where's your workshop two doors down? I came to you87100:49:30.280 --> 00:49:34.679
because of your genius with your hands. You'll want a figure, No,87200:49:36.039 --> 00:49:41.360
just a face, a face for me, you see I87300:49:41.599 --> 00:49:49.760
have no face, I mean no adequate one in the workshop.87400:49:50.199 --> 00:49:54.119
The eyes gleaming from holes in the hood turned on me.87500:49:54.239 --> 00:49:58.880
Sit down while I unmasked, said it may be a shark.87600:50:00.119 --> 00:50:02.480
I'm not pretty. Every day I see things. You're not87700:50:02.639 --> 00:50:04.119
pretty to see very well?87800:50:04.239 --> 00:50:09.880
Then look where's your face?87900:50:10.679 --> 00:50:13.920
All that there is you see here?88000:50:14.760 --> 00:50:16.599
You're just a skull like death.88100:50:17.239 --> 00:50:19.360
I can breathe but through holes.88200:50:19.639 --> 00:50:22.920
I can eat and talk, but your mouth is just88300:50:23.000 --> 00:50:26.559
a no lips but no fleshl like your face was88400:50:26.639 --> 00:50:27.199
eating away.88500:50:27.719 --> 00:50:31.760
It was eating away. It was how you really want88600:50:31.840 --> 00:50:32.000
to know?88700:50:32.679 --> 00:50:33.559
I can stand it.88800:50:34.480 --> 00:50:38.360
It was a bandit somewhere in the desert country. The88900:50:38.480 --> 00:50:43.800
bandit had a sense of the grotesque. He didn't like89000:50:43.920 --> 00:50:48.599
my face, he said, you want a face for me, Yes,89100:50:49.320 --> 00:50:51.360
but a wax face? What good would you are? Not?89200:50:53.639 --> 00:50:58.880
You're only to comply, not the judge. You will rebuild89300:50:59.000 --> 00:51:03.639
my face. You will model a nose, lips and the chin.89400:51:03.800 --> 00:51:06.679
But out of wax. It's crazy. Better a surge and surgery,89500:51:06.760 --> 00:51:07.199
s somebody.89600:51:07.239 --> 00:51:13.239
I want a wax face. Templet us firmly and durablaze89700:51:13.320 --> 00:51:19.280
those dummies. But handsomer. I want to be handsome, feat89800:51:19.360 --> 00:51:22.920
as handsome as you as me. Yes, make my face89900:51:23.119 --> 00:51:25.840
in your likeness. Well, what do you keep staring?90000:51:27.119 --> 00:51:27.159
You?90100:51:29.719 --> 00:51:34.119
You could be the wax devil. You have a lively imagination,90200:51:34.599 --> 00:51:39.719
have I and the perverse habit of staring? Now what's90300:51:39.800 --> 00:51:41.079
running through your imagination?90400:51:41.199 --> 00:51:45.320
What I just said? You could be the wax devil.90500:51:45.400 --> 00:51:48.159
I could be way a wax devil disappeared this morning.90600:51:48.199 --> 00:51:52.039
All right, touch me and satisfy yourself, and let's get90700:51:52.119 --> 00:51:54.480
this over with so you can work on my face.90800:51:55.599 --> 00:52:01.079
Feel my hands. It's flash and I do believe me.90900:52:01.920 --> 00:52:05.800
I wouldn't prefer experimenting with a pin. No, I still91000:52:05.920 --> 00:52:07.400
think me a missing devil.91100:52:08.599 --> 00:52:16.039
You you couldn't be. But I got to work.91200:52:16.400 --> 00:52:18.960
I posed myself in the warm mirror and rebuilt his91300:52:19.079 --> 00:52:22.880
face in wax, A fine, straight nose and a strong91400:52:23.079 --> 00:52:26.280
chin like mine. My next colors into the wax to91500:52:26.320 --> 00:52:28.960
get a reddish glow to the cheeks. I made the91600:52:29.039 --> 00:52:32.559
face durable as much as my skill could, and when91700:52:32.599 --> 00:52:35.840
it was modeled into the warm mass, I kept him91800:52:35.880 --> 00:52:38.360
in the refrigerator room as long as I did.91900:52:40.280 --> 00:52:42.400
You now.92000:52:44.079 --> 00:52:46.159
A face. Let me see.92100:52:47.440 --> 00:52:54.400
There's your mirror over there. Ah, A good job, Tony,92200:52:55.320 --> 00:53:02.480
and I can breathe, and I can you claim your92300:53:02.559 --> 00:53:03.480
work intelligently?92400:53:04.760 --> 00:53:09.079
Look at me. I could be you in wax. Yes,92500:53:09.280 --> 00:53:12.400
you could be be How long can the face last?92600:53:12.920 --> 00:53:15.840
And definitely if you keep the core temperature? Then I'll92700:53:15.920 --> 00:53:19.320
live here with you. I must wear better than here.92800:53:19.440 --> 00:53:25.280
I'll have your hands at my disposals and your refrigerator room. Besides,92900:53:25.280 --> 00:53:28.239
I want to show my gratitude by rewarding you, rewarding93000:53:28.320 --> 00:53:28.960
me hard.93100:53:28.760 --> 00:53:31.599
And making you rich, enormously rich.93200:53:32.679 --> 00:53:36.199
Money are jewels, treasures, all that coming from everywhere in93300:53:36.239 --> 00:53:40.239
the world, from banks and from merchants and from misers.93400:53:41.519 --> 00:53:44.199
I forgot to tell you, not only do I not93500:53:44.400 --> 00:53:45.679
have an actual face.93600:53:46.519 --> 00:53:48.119
I haven't the conscience Eiland.93700:53:52.840 --> 00:53:56.840
He was going to steal for me, he said, but93800:53:56.960 --> 00:53:59.840
he began by stealing from me. Tina.93900:54:00.719 --> 00:54:02.519
I had a date with her, but she hadn't shown up.94000:54:02.599 --> 00:54:05.320
I'd waited half the night, but she never came. The94100:54:05.400 --> 00:54:07.559
next day, when she dropped into the workshop, I landed94200:54:07.599 --> 00:54:11.079
into what changed your mind changed? We had a date94300:54:11.199 --> 00:54:11.599
last night.94400:54:11.639 --> 00:54:13.960
I waited for you. You didn't show up. I didn't.94500:54:16.239 --> 00:54:21.960
You're insane. We kept a date. We what We kept94600:54:22.039 --> 00:54:25.360
a date and we had fun for the first time94700:54:25.440 --> 00:54:29.159
in weeks. We had fun. I I evedn't fell in94800:54:29.280 --> 00:54:29.719
love with you?94900:54:31.960 --> 00:54:35.599
What did we do? You don't remember?95000:54:37.199 --> 00:54:38.440
Tony? What's the matter with you?95100:54:39.119 --> 00:54:39.880
What did we do?95200:54:41.760 --> 00:54:44.239
There was an open air movie and the drive into95300:54:44.280 --> 00:54:45.880
the country was sang and joked and.95400:54:47.719 --> 00:54:52.679
Didn't love his name? Tony?95500:54:52.760 --> 00:54:53.280
What is it?95600:54:53.400 --> 00:54:54.280
What's come over you?95700:54:55.880 --> 00:54:58.920
You were hot last night, all right, Tina, but not95800:54:59.119 --> 00:55:03.039
with me. You were out joy riding with the Devil.95900:55:14.679 --> 00:55:17.199
After that first date, the Devil and Tina kept piling96000:55:17.280 --> 00:55:21.920
together night after night, dates every night, and Tina smiling96100:55:22.039 --> 00:55:23.719
like she just discovered herself while she was.96200:55:23.719 --> 00:55:26.719
Having the time of her life. Even when Tina found96300:55:26.719 --> 00:55:28.519
out he was a ringer for me, she preferred him.96400:55:29.159 --> 00:55:31.199
I couldn't talk her out, but I couldn't beat her96500:55:31.239 --> 00:55:36.840
out of room. Tony all knocked so sensity about the killer.96600:55:37.519 --> 00:55:40.719
Quit taking that the freak you you've no right to96700:55:40.880 --> 00:55:43.000
order me, only in your crazy head.96800:55:43.280 --> 00:55:47.119
He's warm and reeling, even tender.96900:55:47.199 --> 00:55:49.559
His faces are dollars worth of worts, like a masty97000:55:49.679 --> 00:55:50.280
A month away.97100:55:50.360 --> 00:55:52.719
He told me how that happened, a terrible way he97200:55:52.800 --> 00:55:56.119
was mutilated. I cried, Tony. I wasn't repelled.97300:55:56.119 --> 00:55:58.440
I just cried for him.97400:55:58.519 --> 00:56:01.519
You would, for a gag invented that horror story about97500:56:01.559 --> 00:56:04.760
his face. And if he did invent it, invent it97600:56:05.280 --> 00:56:06.079
doesn't make any.97700:56:05.880 --> 00:56:08.599
Difference to me. Nothing makes any difference to me, not97800:56:08.760 --> 00:56:10.519
even if he's the devil.97900:56:10.639 --> 00:56:14.159
Not even then, all these days you've been telling me98000:56:14.239 --> 00:56:17.440
he's the devil, a thing with a false face and98100:56:17.519 --> 00:56:19.599
no conscience. And while you've been telling me all that,98200:56:19.679 --> 00:56:22.039
do you know what I keep thinking, Coney, But I98300:56:22.119 --> 00:56:23.800
keep whispering to myself.98400:56:23.519 --> 00:56:26.360
How do you keep thinking? Oh?98500:56:26.599 --> 00:56:30.880
Excliting, so exciting to be in league and in love98600:56:31.800 --> 00:56:32.519
with the devil?98700:56:33.679 --> 00:56:34.800
Are you surprised?98800:56:35.440 --> 00:56:43.920
Tolly her laugh as if she was having a thing,98900:56:44.679 --> 00:56:47.440
moving away from a deeper into the workshop, losing herself99000:56:47.480 --> 00:56:50.480
in a crowd of wax figures, patched lynd and crazy killing.99100:56:51.159 --> 00:56:53.159
I followed over my eyes as far as I could.99200:56:53.960 --> 00:56:56.199
Suddenly I saw her as someone else.99300:56:56.760 --> 00:57:04.199
She wasn't Tina any longer, but Mary, bloody Mary, don't go.99400:57:06.800 --> 00:57:09.960
She was down the stairs, gone running from me. I99500:57:10.039 --> 00:57:11.639
went back into the workshop. I had to get hold99600:57:11.639 --> 00:57:14.360
of myself. I was seeing things.99700:57:14.880 --> 00:57:20.760
You seem a little unsettled. Yes, me, You handled Tina99800:57:20.880 --> 00:57:21.599
very clumsily.99900:57:21.840 --> 00:57:23.119
What were you spying?100000:57:23.400 --> 00:57:27.400
I couldn't help overhearing you. I was there in your100100:57:27.480 --> 00:57:28.400
refrigerator room.100200:57:28.480 --> 00:57:31.000
You've got Tina in a crazy spouse. It does me100300:57:31.800 --> 00:57:37.320
quite naturally, quite natural. It's not just the torture resemblance.100400:57:37.360 --> 00:57:40.039
You and I now better which other draws Tina to me.100500:57:40.719 --> 00:57:44.119
It's far more than that. I'm more her kind.100600:57:46.280 --> 00:57:49.920
I don't understand you. She told you she found me exciting.100700:57:50.400 --> 00:57:51.360
Couldn't you guess why?100800:57:51.559 --> 00:57:54.000
It was just talk to drive me crazy? To get100900:57:54.039 --> 00:57:55.400
even for the pushing around, I can.101000:57:55.480 --> 00:57:56.599
Know it was more than that.101100:57:57.920 --> 00:58:02.719
You see you and I are superficially and quite matched mentally.101200:58:03.440 --> 00:58:06.960
Neither of us can lay do too much claim to sanity.101300:58:08.039 --> 00:58:13.000
But you have one attribute that I don't this, and101400:58:13.159 --> 00:58:17.840
it's the lack of that attribute and me that attracts Tina.101500:58:18.760 --> 00:58:23.960
What haven't you got to attracts Tina? A conscience? You101600:58:24.039 --> 00:58:27.440
think I'm joking. I don't think you love Tina. On101700:58:27.559 --> 00:58:31.039
the contrary, you don't know. You see her simple and101800:58:31.159 --> 00:58:35.159
lovely and good. In fact, you want her like that. Consequently,101900:58:35.599 --> 00:58:37.760
you repress her where I free her.102000:58:38.480 --> 00:58:42.599
No, I know you're the devil, scheming to remake Tina102100:58:42.599 --> 00:58:43.360
in your image.102200:58:43.440 --> 00:58:46.000
Am I Did you see her before?102300:58:47.119 --> 00:58:50.719
Did you see the curious transfigurations you underwent when she102400:58:50.880 --> 00:58:54.079
dared free us out and laugh, really laugh?102500:58:55.960 --> 00:58:59.880
Yes? She seemed to change right under my eyes, seemed102600:58:59.880 --> 00:59:00.639
to change into what.102700:59:00.880 --> 00:59:06.440
An older face, wild and crazy and gloating bike like102800:59:06.920 --> 00:59:08.559
Bloody Mary waving her axe.102900:59:09.760 --> 00:59:14.639
Bloody Mary back. There were the wax figures like Bloody Mary.103000:59:19.159 --> 00:59:22.239
That night I crept along after them, the devil and Tina.103100:59:23.079 --> 00:59:27.159
There is an observer along the harbor front where ghosts103200:59:27.239 --> 00:59:31.159
of ships float into blackness to a small park in103300:59:31.280 --> 00:59:35.159
the fancy East End, where tired men sit on benches103400:59:35.239 --> 00:59:38.519
and dream into the river. I watched them work as103500:59:38.559 --> 00:59:42.000
a teen teena and the devil smoothly, every move coordinated,103600:59:42.039 --> 00:59:44.760
as if they were both powered by one instinct. The103700:59:44.880 --> 00:59:46.599
said had got up to go, and then he screamed.103800:59:46.599 --> 00:59:50.079
Suddenly it struggled. The Devil's had his arms and a vices.103900:59:50.159 --> 00:59:58.679
Tina swung me. I'd been wrong about Tina. The devil104000:59:58.840 --> 01:00:03.360
was right. Her face looking down at a victim was104101:00:03.440 --> 01:00:08.000
the face of a man killer, the face of bloody Mary.104201:00:11.039 --> 01:00:14.159
The devil had promised to reward me by making me rich.104301:00:15.440 --> 01:00:17.800
He hadn't forgotten for you, Tony.104401:00:18.880 --> 01:00:22.199
A small down payment on my gratitude for this face104501:00:23.239 --> 01:00:27.039
A man's wedding band. It's not much, but the wretch104601:00:27.119 --> 01:00:30.480
had a little worth stealing only a watch, A few104701:00:30.559 --> 01:00:31.320
paltry dollars.104801:00:31.360 --> 01:00:31.840
In this ring.104901:00:32.880 --> 01:00:35.480
The money goes to Tina. I will keep the watch.105001:00:35.679 --> 01:00:37.559
I don't want to ring, but you must take it.105101:00:38.559 --> 01:00:41.719
It brings the three of us closer, and insures two105201:00:41.760 --> 01:00:44.320
of us against notions you may entertain about the police.105301:00:46.280 --> 01:00:49.440
It also suggests another way that you will eventually become105401:00:49.480 --> 01:00:52.000
a problem to me. How will I become a problem105501:00:52.159 --> 01:00:55.920
you took the wedding band reluctantly just now. But soon105601:00:56.000 --> 01:01:00.760
you'll become bolder, greedier. Soon you'll want more. You'll demand105701:01:00.840 --> 01:01:04.239
Tina too, You'll try to recapture her from me. I105801:01:04.360 --> 01:01:05.639
want no part of Tina.105901:01:06.239 --> 01:01:11.960
I do, Tina. Yes, I never want to lose you106001:01:12.079 --> 01:01:12.559
to Tony.106101:01:13.599 --> 01:01:16.639
I don't think you ever will. Will you marry me106201:01:16.760 --> 01:01:19.639
then right away? You don't know whatever you've done, but106301:01:19.760 --> 01:01:22.199
not that you. You can't marry the devil.106401:01:22.320 --> 01:01:25.599
I can, Tony, I can, and I will.106501:01:31.280 --> 01:01:35.920
Eva did and I watched, and you, Tina, take this,106601:01:37.599 --> 01:01:40.320
this man to be your lawfully wedded husband.106701:01:41.639 --> 01:01:45.679
I do please place the ring on her, saying rings.106801:01:46.360 --> 01:01:51.039
I forgot about the ring, Tony. Yes, the wedding band106901:01:51.119 --> 01:01:55.039
you quiet earlier, and I borrow it for the bride. Yes,107001:01:55.679 --> 01:02:03.880
I have it here in my pocket. It was a107101:02:03.960 --> 01:02:07.519
beautiful ceremony. You don't think so, Tony.107201:02:07.920 --> 01:02:08.960
It was a nightmare.107301:02:09.960 --> 01:02:13.480
Your bad company for honeymoon us. Drop us in the107401:02:13.559 --> 01:02:16.079
nearest motor cart and then be on your way. Be107501:02:16.239 --> 01:02:25.159
on my way here we'll manage without you nicely. I107601:02:25.320 --> 01:02:28.559
dropped him at a motor cord, but I didn't go107701:02:28.719 --> 01:02:32.559
on my way much. I pulled the car to aside,107801:02:33.039 --> 01:02:37.679
shut the lights, and I tried to sing. I tried107901:02:37.719 --> 01:02:42.559
to corner my brain and force one ideas, one idea.108001:02:44.000 --> 01:02:47.119
The devil could have t enough, but he couldn't wear108101:02:47.199 --> 01:02:52.079
my face. Thought about that the idea grew his power108201:02:52.119 --> 01:02:55.199
over me was my face. I was mixed up about everything,108301:02:55.280 --> 01:02:57.199
crazy as all get up. But this one idea was108401:02:57.239 --> 01:02:58.559
the clearest thing I understood.108501:02:59.199 --> 01:03:02.400
The devil couldn't wear my face any longer, not if108601:03:02.440 --> 01:03:04.599
I wanted to hold onto the only thing I had108701:03:05.440 --> 01:03:13.960
a conscience. I crept into their cabin, very noiseless. Tina108801:03:14.039 --> 01:03:17.159
had dropped off in a chair. He was on a bed,108901:03:17.400 --> 01:03:18.280
breathing heavily.109001:03:19.400 --> 01:03:22.119
I lit a torch I'd made of paper and twigged109101:03:23.440 --> 01:03:25.400
with my knee in the pitch of stomach in.109201:03:25.400 --> 01:03:27.360
One hand, like a steel of vice on his throat.109301:03:27.719 --> 01:03:31.679
I held the blazing torch. He awaken, but I help109401:03:31.800 --> 01:03:36.440
was making whimpery songs. I watched first his chin dub109501:03:36.559 --> 01:03:39.000
and then his cheeks, and then little hot rivers, and109601:03:39.039 --> 01:03:40.159
watch run down here on.109701:03:40.360 --> 01:03:46.559
Him and on me, Gina, stop and a look behind109801:03:46.639 --> 01:03:54.400
his face, look at your bright lead.109901:04:02.480 --> 01:04:06.400
I escaped. I rolled in the dirt outside, just fulltl110001:04:06.440 --> 01:04:07.559
flames on my clothes.110101:04:09.440 --> 01:04:12.960
Tina didn't escape. When she saw the planes were too much,110201:04:13.039 --> 01:04:16.079
that it was too late to save him, she flung110301:04:16.199 --> 01:04:20.159
herself across him on his suneral fire. The last thing110401:04:20.280 --> 01:04:20.519
in my.110501:04:20.679 --> 01:04:27.400
Ears is the cabin began to fallwards. Was her scream.110601:04:35.960 --> 01:04:40.679
I'm back in the Devil's workshop now, winding everything up,110701:04:41.400 --> 01:04:47.280
making plans to junk everything here for keeps. Sergeant Tracey's110801:04:47.360 --> 01:04:50.159
here with me, trying to make sense out of what110901:04:50.360 --> 01:04:51.800
he checked in my story.111001:04:52.679 --> 01:04:55.519
I had a whole group with Specialiscus through the rubble111101:04:55.599 --> 01:04:58.119
of that cabin that burned to the ground.111201:04:58.320 --> 01:05:00.840
I started the fire, I destroyed his face, and Tina111301:05:01.000 --> 01:05:01.360
ford with.111401:05:01.440 --> 01:05:06.119
Me, and Oh he told us that already there weren't111501:05:06.199 --> 01:05:10.519
two corpses in the rubble, Tony, just a lot of111601:05:10.559 --> 01:05:16.039
wax wax over everything. The Devil was undoubtedly that wax111701:05:16.159 --> 01:05:21.039
figure you reported missing, But Tina were checking over your111801:05:21.079 --> 01:05:25.400
workshop just now I find another figure in your inventory,111901:05:25.519 --> 01:05:33.239
missing another figure, Bloody Mary, Buddy, Mary's Missy see for yourself.112001:05:35.079 --> 01:05:37.000
I didn't know exactly what you did the other night112101:05:37.079 --> 01:05:39.719
in acting at your hallucination, but there's no doubt in112201:05:39.800 --> 01:05:43.360
my mind that the two people were burned in that112301:05:43.639 --> 01:05:51.199
fire was a wax devil and a bloody mary. A112401:05:51.280 --> 01:05:53.920
man was axed to death and robbed in the park112501:05:54.000 --> 01:05:54.760
on the east end.112601:05:54.840 --> 01:05:55.440
You said.112701:05:57.519 --> 01:06:02.559
That murder never took place. To me, I'm as crazy112801:06:02.599 --> 01:06:02.840
as that.112901:06:04.280 --> 01:06:07.480
Well, let's just say you took that weird business here113001:06:07.519 --> 01:06:13.559
in a little seriously. Now that uh just about explains113101:06:13.599 --> 01:06:20.760
everything more or less on desert, or does it. There's113201:06:20.920 --> 01:06:24.239
uh one big question mark. We're trying to slough off113301:06:24.320 --> 01:06:27.519
at the department because if we don't, we'll all start113401:06:27.639 --> 01:06:29.360
looking under our bed snipes.113501:06:30.440 --> 01:06:33.559
One big question, sergeant. We went through the.113601:06:33.599 --> 01:06:37.119
Rubble that tapped with a fine chrome. All we found,113701:06:37.159 --> 01:06:39.360
as I said, was wax.113801:06:41.079 --> 01:06:44.280
And this this.113901:06:45.800 --> 01:06:51.079
A wedding band, a man's wedding band.114001:07:08.159 --> 01:07:11.519
I helded to sign outside a certain workshop that reads114101:07:12.480 --> 01:07:19.360
or sale lonor gone off permanently. You can buy in114201:07:19.559 --> 01:07:25.519
cheap anybody a small down payment a wax dollars, say114301:07:26.639 --> 01:07:30.840
with your mind the security for the balance of your sanity.114401:07:36.159 --> 01:07:41.440
So the blazing lovers triangle finally boiled down to just tony.114501:07:42.880 --> 01:07:50.519
Imagine all at wax and no candlewig at the close114601:07:50.599 --> 01:07:54.559
friend of mine, remarked to his keeper. Make a rental114701:07:54.639 --> 01:07:57.559
service out of your face, and you're liable to get114801:07:57.599 --> 01:07:58.440
it in the neck.114901:08:13.480 --> 01:08:17.520
Well, now that we're getting a little deeper into the night,115001:08:18.479 --> 01:08:22.680
I suppose I should I suppose I should get out115101:08:22.760 --> 01:08:29.520
some blankets and maybe make things more cozy in here.115201:08:30.479 --> 01:08:30.920
Oh what's that?115301:08:31.960 --> 01:08:36.319
Oh no, no, no, no worry there. I'll keep the115401:08:36.439 --> 01:08:42.319
fire burning bright and the hot tea coming along. We'll115501:08:42.359 --> 01:08:45.760
be just fine in here, my dear, as long as115601:08:45.840 --> 01:08:50.760
we keep our minds about us. Of course, there are115701:08:51.159 --> 01:08:56.520
always the risks of staying up late when those things115801:08:56.600 --> 01:09:01.359
that go bump do so. But in the morning you'll115901:09:01.520 --> 01:09:04.560
feel like the walking dead.116001:09:12.479 --> 01:09:15.239
We bring you treats. By Night.116101:09:36.680 --> 01:09:39.439
The Blue Network presents the thirteenth in a series of116201:09:39.560 --> 01:09:43.319
dramatic explorations into the vast and unknown darkness of the116301:09:43.439 --> 01:09:44.199
human mind.116401:09:51.880 --> 01:09:55.319

your guide and companion along the dark and often terrifying116801:10:06.039 --> 01:10:07.359
pathway of the unexplored.116901:10:08.319 --> 01:10:11.560
It will come to you only as a void since117001:10:11.640 --> 01:10:12.760
for reasons best.117101:10:12.600 --> 01:10:17.159
Known to himself, he prefers to remain anonymous. It bands117201:10:17.199 --> 01:10:19.399
before me now, ready to lead you into the dim117301:10:19.520 --> 01:10:24.039
and distant worlds beyond the realm of human understanding. Treat117401:10:24.439 --> 01:10:39.600
by Night presents its master of mystery that direct good evenings.117501:10:41.159 --> 01:10:44.560
I have been asked to serve as your master of mystery.117601:10:44.880 --> 01:10:48.279
I'm these weekly pilgrimages into the unknowns to.117701:10:48.399 --> 01:10:52.680
Choose for you stories that's cleared deep into the tortured souls.117801:10:52.359 --> 01:10:55.640
Of men's and door side the shadowy Christain of the mind.117901:10:56.920 --> 01:10:59.359
For the time being, I shall have to be known118001:10:59.439 --> 01:11:04.399
only as Doctor X, my identity quaked in the very darkness.118101:11:04.079 --> 01:11:04.800
Of which we speak.118201:11:05.880 --> 01:11:07.600
Perhaps fun of you will recognize my voice.118301:11:07.600 --> 01:11:10.159
If you do, I tried you to secrecy.118401:11:11.560 --> 01:11:13.479
It will be my duty on this program to select118501:11:13.520 --> 01:11:16.000
for you stories that have been drawn from the mystery118601:11:16.039 --> 01:11:19.079
of life itself. From time to time I will invite118701:11:19.119 --> 01:11:21.039
leading actors name like Peter.118801:11:20.960 --> 01:11:24.680
Laura La Lugosi, Edmund when danel Lethbum and others to118901:11:24.800 --> 01:11:27.119
participate in our grammatic explorations.119001:11:28.000 --> 01:11:30.600
But enough for talk jong with.119101:11:30.640 --> 01:11:33.600
Me now, as we see unfolded before us, the weird119201:11:33.920 --> 01:11:45.479
chronicle of the walking dead side. Let me take you119301:11:45.560 --> 01:11:48.880
to the black island of Haiti keep the metlodean to119401:11:48.960 --> 01:11:52.079
a coffee plantation, some forty miles from the city of Porto, Pains.119501:11:53.399 --> 01:11:55.720
It is long after dark and the night is not119601:11:55.840 --> 01:11:59.920
hout and seltry deadly quiet, save for the rhythmic beating.119701:12:00.079 --> 01:12:01.800
You'll meet your drums off in the distance.119801:12:02.680 --> 01:12:06.840
At long intervals, a human voice cries out, rising above119901:12:06.880 --> 01:12:09.760
the drums, like the dismal wailing of a lost soul.120001:12:11.960 --> 01:12:14.199
On the porch of the cottage you're joining the plantation office.120101:12:14.760 --> 01:12:19.840
A man stares out into the darkness, obviously waiting for something. Suddenly,120201:12:19.880 --> 01:12:23.399
a car springs into the open, gated, headlights blazing. It120301:12:23.479 --> 01:12:23.920
goes up.120401:12:23.840 --> 01:12:24.560
Before the cottage.120501:12:25.000 --> 01:12:30.600
Wait here man carrying a black man longs to death,120601:12:31.279 --> 01:12:37.560
and the land waiting on the porch greeks him. Doctor Mountain, Yeah,120701:12:38.039 --> 01:12:40.600
I'm water Cray, manager of the plantation by Annoion.120801:12:40.600 --> 01:12:41.000
It's great.120901:12:41.359 --> 01:12:42.920
Sorry about being so late that they're called of the121001:12:42.960 --> 01:12:45.319
public health office. Somehow got lost in the shop. He's121101:12:45.319 --> 01:12:48.680
an under perfect pressure to laugh. Two days gone, doctor.121201:12:48.640 --> 01:12:50.960
It's a late day one of the earth formed, wasn't it.121301:12:51.159 --> 01:12:54.439
Yes, he's still alive, but I don't think there's much121401:12:54.520 --> 01:12:55.239
you can do for him.121501:12:55.359 --> 01:12:56.119
While I'll try.121601:12:56.199 --> 01:12:56.640
Where is he.121701:12:56.960 --> 01:12:59.920
Across the road and that hurt him? But before you121801:13:00.119 --> 01:13:02.399
see him, I think i'd better tell you something about this.121901:13:02.760 --> 01:13:03.199
Go ahead.122001:13:03.800 --> 01:13:06.960
The man, his name is Lreau, the Frenchman. He was122101:13:07.039 --> 01:13:11.079
released from the Penal Colony last April on probation. Came122201:13:11.119 --> 01:13:12.319
to me for a job, and I took him on122301:13:12.399 --> 01:13:15.039
because I needed help badly, I see. I put him122401:13:15.039 --> 01:13:16.560
in charge of a crew of native pickers and he122501:13:16.640 --> 01:13:19.239
seemed to work out fine. He droves him hard, but122601:13:19.359 --> 01:13:20.960
he brought the crop in and that's what counts.122701:13:21.039 --> 01:13:21.399
Uh huh.122801:13:21.960 --> 01:13:24.079
Ten days ago, one of his crew was found dead122901:13:24.119 --> 01:13:26.600
in the fields. Someone had hit the poor beggar over123001:13:26.600 --> 01:13:28.199
the head with a bailing hook and with his do123101:13:29.520 --> 01:13:32.079
I questioned a couple of them, but you know how123201:13:32.119 --> 01:13:34.760
they are tight it all I could learn in life123301:13:34.760 --> 01:13:36.239
that lore had had an argument with the man just123401:13:36.359 --> 01:13:39.520
before the body was found. Lareau cost the night killing him.123501:13:40.560 --> 01:13:43.520
That night Nerada drums started a beast they've been beating123601:13:43.520 --> 01:13:46.840
every night since. Why the natives could start fromlarone murdered123701:13:46.880 --> 01:13:49.239
that figger. We've been trying to put the hecks on him.123801:13:50.840 --> 01:13:52.840
Yeah, that's a death whale.123901:13:53.640 --> 01:13:56.600
Don't know he's dying. They know it because they're killing him.124001:13:56.600 --> 01:13:58.800
All now, hold on clay. So all I could talk124101:13:58.800 --> 01:14:01.039
about native captives and black I did, But you can't124201:14:01.159 --> 01:14:05.079
kill people by beating gums and waiting. Doctor, how long124301:14:05.119 --> 01:14:07.600
have you been in Haiti? Six months? What difference did124401:14:07.640 --> 01:14:10.039
that make? I've been on the island for fifteen years,124501:14:10.039 --> 01:14:13.079
and I've learned one thing. It's a great deal that124601:14:13.199 --> 01:14:15.760
goes on down here that we know nothing about. But124701:14:15.880 --> 01:14:16.840
we can't explain all.124801:14:16.960 --> 01:14:19.000
Now you'll then call it voodoo, a black magic, or124901:14:19.000 --> 01:14:20.880
anything you're wishing, but it's fair.125001:14:22.079 --> 01:14:23.279
Let me tell you what happened.125101:14:23.439 --> 01:14:23.920
Go ahead.125201:14:24.439 --> 01:14:26.319
The more they beat those drums at night, the boiler125301:14:26.399 --> 01:14:29.119
roo gover the devils during the day. I warned him,125401:14:29.119 --> 01:14:32.439
the layoff that you last. The night before last, I125501:14:32.600 --> 01:14:35.159
got two of them sprinkling graveyard brig around this hut.125601:14:35.359 --> 01:14:38.520
What's graveyard dirt? They believe that dirt dug from around125701:14:38.560 --> 01:14:41.239
the corpse can name and kill. That's rubbish, maybe it is,125801:14:42.079 --> 01:14:46.399
but remember this. These natives are experts on poisons. They125901:14:46.479 --> 01:14:49.720
use dogwood rub and bamboo dust, both deadling with no126001:14:49.880 --> 01:14:50.600
known antidotes.126101:14:51.159 --> 01:14:54.239
They use dried and powdered lizards. Some stuff they get126201:14:54.279 --> 01:14:57.239
out of the gall bladders are alligators. Maybe there is126301:14:57.279 --> 01:15:00.520
something in graveyard birt. I don't know, doubt very much.126401:15:00.640 --> 01:15:02.279
I'll at any Right after I caught those two, I126501:15:02.359 --> 01:15:04.039
told Laue better get off here. I haven't have been able.126601:15:04.039 --> 01:15:04.640
What was good for him?126701:15:05.359 --> 01:15:08.319
He said he'd make it over. They didn't give him126801:15:08.319 --> 01:15:10.880
a chance. This morning he couldn't get out of bed.126901:15:11.199 --> 01:15:13.920
The waits were paralyzed. Watched them arow day and the127001:15:13.960 --> 01:15:17.560
paralysis kept creeping up his body. He can scarcely breathe now.127101:15:17.720 --> 01:15:21.079
They can't talk. All he does is mumble, that's strange.127201:15:21.239 --> 01:15:22.079
That's get to look at him.127301:15:22.479 --> 01:15:22.640
Better.127401:15:22.680 --> 01:15:26.840
Tell miss carlaver here. She'll probably want to come along. Incidentally,127501:15:27.760 --> 01:15:29.800
she doesn't know anything about this except that la Rue127601:15:29.880 --> 01:15:30.159
was sick.127701:15:30.199 --> 01:15:31.000
Who's miss Carla?127801:15:31.680 --> 01:15:35.000
Her father owned this plantation, died back in the States127901:15:35.079 --> 01:15:37.439
last month. She came down and we could go to128001:15:37.520 --> 01:15:39.840
look things over. She didn't start the cottage.128101:15:39.880 --> 01:15:42.079
I'd rather not have a woman present when I clammed him. Craig,128201:15:42.159 --> 01:15:47.600
if it can be helped, well, all right, follow me.128301:15:50.760 --> 01:15:54.359
Wait a minute, with the matter a drummer. They stopped,128401:15:54.479 --> 01:15:56.479
and that's fine. I'll beginning to get on my nerves.128501:15:56.560 --> 01:16:00.600
Come out not a wait. Do you hear anything? Both128601:16:00.680 --> 01:16:01.920
voices and the shuffling of feet.128701:16:02.600 --> 01:16:03.479
No, I do.128801:16:04.680 --> 01:16:08.439
I'd better get a flashlight. Good lord, what's that? I128901:16:08.600 --> 01:16:09.479
thought something was wrong?129001:16:09.880 --> 01:16:10.720
I surrounded the world?129101:16:10.800 --> 01:16:13.479
Cartay, that's miss Carlyle.129201:16:13.600 --> 01:16:14.359
Excuse me a minute.129301:16:15.920 --> 01:16:17.439
I'm out there on the porch just happening.129401:16:17.479 --> 01:16:19.119
All of a sudden, the thumbs in that chanting.129501:16:19.479 --> 01:16:20.479
Oh, it's coming with you.129601:16:20.600 --> 01:16:22.800
It's doctor Nelson of the Public Health Office and quarter prints.129701:16:22.800 --> 01:16:23.680
How are you doing, miss Carlin.129801:16:23.760 --> 01:16:24.800
Oh, I'm so glad you're here.129901:16:24.840 --> 01:16:25.119
Doctor.130001:16:25.279 --> 01:16:26.680
What's going on out Tennis Crag?130101:16:26.800 --> 01:16:28.159
The natives have surrounded the road.130201:16:28.239 --> 01:16:30.960
Hut hi. I don't know. We better get to a Craig.130301:16:31.000 --> 01:16:33.239
We want to do some damage that racket. Certainly can't130401:16:33.239 --> 01:16:35.560
have a dying land. It's too late, now, too late.130501:16:35.880 --> 01:16:37.520
What do you mean there's only one way to get130601:16:37.520 --> 01:16:37.800
along with.130701:16:37.800 --> 01:16:40.119
The native's down there, with carlile go, there's a fail130801:16:40.159 --> 01:16:42.680
with them. Leave them alone. That's all well and good, Craig,130901:16:42.720 --> 01:16:44.079
But you say a man's dying in that hut?131001:16:44.319 --> 01:16:45.439
I may be able to do something wrong.131101:16:45.880 --> 01:16:48.079
The tridiculous all of them after that happens is to take.131201:16:48.079 --> 01:16:50.520
I won't take all it now now wild with religions, fervor,131301:16:51.039 --> 01:16:52.960
that canting you here goes back a thousand years, the131401:16:53.000 --> 01:16:54.680
one of what savages in the jungle. You want to131501:16:54.720 --> 01:16:59.000
pay this of it, Carlyle. I'll send the house boy131601:16:59.039 --> 01:17:01.359
over to see what's going on here.131701:17:01.800 --> 01:17:05.079
So what I don't quite understand why you can't order them.131801:17:05.039 --> 01:17:07.239
As you all understand. If you're down the running, like131901:17:07.319 --> 01:17:09.960
the time he comes to house store, you s yes132001:17:10.880 --> 01:17:12.600
over the lord's hunt and see what's happening.132101:17:13.199 --> 01:17:13.640
Look and go.132201:17:14.000 --> 01:17:18.079
You make Booker tent the rule more Booker la moon.132301:17:18.239 --> 01:17:18.840
What's he saying?132401:17:19.359 --> 01:17:22.399
He said, were rud dead? That's the ball card chant.132501:17:22.439 --> 01:17:22.800
We're hearing.132601:17:23.800 --> 01:17:26.359
They're going to take his body away. They're going to132701:17:26.399 --> 01:17:29.159
turn him into a zombie. We mean, up all the132801:17:29.279 --> 01:17:30.239
ridiculous nonsense.132901:17:30.319 --> 01:17:31.039
What's a zombie?133001:17:31.159 --> 01:17:33.720
What are you talking about, Jumblie, missus Carlyle, is a133101:17:33.840 --> 01:17:37.079
corpse that's been brought back to life. Down here, they133201:17:37.239 --> 01:17:38.560
call them a walking dead.133301:17:38.840 --> 01:17:40.479
You mean to stand there and tell me that you133401:17:40.600 --> 01:17:41.000
believe that.133501:17:41.199 --> 01:17:44.159
I don't believe or disbelieve, miss car Isle. All I133601:17:44.279 --> 01:17:46.439
know is that for centuries and natives of Haitia conducted133701:17:46.479 --> 01:17:49.520
weird right over here, I'll tell you some of this133801:17:49.680 --> 01:17:51.520
ceremonies to make your hair stand on end. Is that133901:17:51.560 --> 01:17:53.880
any reason for letting a man die with savage drums.134001:17:53.640 --> 01:17:54.319
Beating in his ears?134101:17:54.800 --> 01:17:55.720
He's already dead?134201:17:55.840 --> 01:17:56.319
How do we know?134301:17:56.640 --> 01:17:58.920
I never used the bow chord chant except over a corpse.134401:17:59.039 --> 01:18:01.359
Now, love litter Craig. I own this plantation, and you're134501:18:01.439 --> 01:18:03.479
employed by me. And I am sist that you ordered134601:18:03.479 --> 01:18:04.560
those naked away from my house.134701:18:04.680 --> 01:18:06.600
Und your tramp on my car. I'm not losing my134801:18:06.640 --> 01:18:11.479
Tampa battlement. I've had fifteen years of hady, fifteen years134901:18:11.520 --> 01:18:14.119
of learning how to get along with native help. You're135001:18:14.119 --> 01:18:16.279
not in the United States now, this is in Georgia.135101:18:16.399 --> 01:18:19.119
I have a Bama's or West Indies. You're a figner135201:18:19.199 --> 01:18:22.159
and a strange land, land where the roots of boodle135301:18:22.239 --> 01:18:25.239
and black magic roll deep and strong. We know that clay,135401:18:25.319 --> 01:18:28.560
but the facts do In a minute, doctor, I've seen135501:18:28.680 --> 01:18:31.560
men disappear on this island, finish off the fate of135601:18:31.600 --> 01:18:34.439
the earth. They were men who laughed and made him135701:18:34.439 --> 01:18:37.520
Superstition just the way you are laughing at it healthy stupidness.135801:18:37.520 --> 01:18:38.680
The Craig, nobody's laughing.135901:18:38.960 --> 01:18:40.319
We're trying to save a man's life.136001:18:40.560 --> 01:18:42.479
Why did you call Doc Announcion from Port of Pass136101:18:42.479 --> 01:18:44.199
if you didn't intend him to examine the roof?136201:18:44.319 --> 01:18:46.000
Yes, forty miles is a long way to come to136301:18:46.039 --> 01:18:48.960
listen to native drums. Neither of you can understand what136401:18:49.000 --> 01:18:50.000
I'm driving at, can you?136501:18:50.159 --> 01:18:51.920
All I know is that the human being is lying136601:18:51.960 --> 01:18:54.159
in the hat just may sick. When I saw in136701:18:54.239 --> 01:18:55.399
this afternoon, he was in pitiful.136801:18:55.439 --> 01:18:57.359
Can oh, body's in nye? That's miss Carlin.136901:18:57.800 --> 01:19:00.199
Something fit just because you hear some chanting hands, I'm137001:19:00.239 --> 01:19:02.439
grum meeting and you refuse to order that naked the137101:19:02.520 --> 01:19:03.880
race so the documentag Can it is.137201:19:04.000 --> 01:19:04.760
That I refused?137301:19:04.760 --> 01:19:07.079
It's him where if you mount out of them away,137401:19:07.119 --> 01:19:09.359
I come back with Cary.137501:19:09.479 --> 01:19:11.199
Don't want to go over there alone, but doctor after137601:19:25.600 --> 01:19:27.520
we will never find it this way, Craig, we better137701:19:27.560 --> 01:19:29.000
go back to the house and Pom for help. We've137801:19:29.039 --> 01:19:31.359
got to find her. I don't trust those devils tonight.137901:19:31.479 --> 01:19:32.640
I never saw anything like it.138001:19:32.960 --> 01:19:34.520
She went across the road toward the huts, and.138101:19:34.560 --> 01:19:36.079
Before we could get to where they swallowed up like138201:19:36.119 --> 01:19:38.239
an avenging to hours and then they were gone. That's138301:19:38.279 --> 01:19:40.279
how they work. Did they take the Louise body with them. Yes,138401:19:41.000 --> 01:19:42.840
come on, we'll take a chance and put in on138501:19:42.880 --> 01:19:45.279
that ceremony. I may be able to keep them in check.138601:19:45.359 --> 01:19:48.000
Are you sure to say? I'm not sure about anything? See,138701:19:48.079 --> 01:19:49.880
that's flash right off. I don't want them to know138801:19:49.880 --> 01:19:50.359
where coming.138901:19:51.079 --> 01:19:51.680
That's told.139001:19:53.680 --> 01:19:55.319
I didn't though. It's always been a mystery to me139101:19:55.359 --> 01:19:57.399
why the authorities haven't stepped into control of these natives.139201:19:57.399 --> 01:19:58.960
They've tried, but it doesn't work.139301:19:59.479 --> 01:20:00.760
It's we're looking with them.139401:20:00.800 --> 01:20:03.000
That's no excuse for killing and kidnapped. They only joe139501:20:03.039 --> 01:20:05.359
when someone is telling them armed road to tell me139601:20:05.399 --> 01:20:06.960
to one, what about this car he tried to win139701:20:07.039 --> 01:20:09.359
up bear in one of their sacred ceremonies. Hold over139801:20:09.359 --> 01:20:11.479
a minute, I see the light of their talking.139901:20:11.880 --> 01:20:15.560
Yeah, go behind their shag, hit them flickering yet to140001:20:15.600 --> 01:20:17.159
see the map working on devils?140101:20:18.039 --> 01:20:20.319
Nothing make your blunt run cold. That poor girl, if140201:20:20.359 --> 01:20:22.000
she's alive, but the out of her mind was get140301:20:22.079 --> 01:20:24.319
a little closer and keep your eyes open. They move140401:20:24.439 --> 01:20:26.800
like boats in the darkness. Can't hit them as a lot.140501:20:26.640 --> 01:20:27.079
On top of me.140601:20:27.239 --> 01:20:29.319
I certainly never expected to be fucking natives when I140701:20:29.399 --> 01:20:30.199
joined the Public House service.140801:20:30.239 --> 01:20:31.159
Outside of that, let's go.140901:20:31.920 --> 01:20:33.600
Let's speak up behind the shags and see what they're doing.141001:20:33.760 --> 01:20:39.640
All right, every cling? How many of the day think?141101:20:39.640 --> 01:20:41.920
There are about two hundred? Who is the boy?141201:20:42.159 --> 01:20:45.439
Under ordinary certain stances? They're quiet and peaceful. Oh I141301:20:45.479 --> 01:20:47.720
should have known better than the people have run a plantation.141401:20:47.479 --> 01:20:48.640
Or lost and hit though we well it's too late,141501:20:48.720 --> 01:20:50.960
not a veray ma anyone over this way? Doctor rutch141601:20:51.000 --> 01:20:53.800
down the team?141701:20:53.880 --> 01:20:58.439
Now hold up, they're all kneeling with the sau get141801:20:58.439 --> 01:21:00.439
the one in the middle. Who is he? O?141901:21:00.640 --> 01:21:01.199
Card? I guess?142001:21:02.000 --> 01:21:02.399
Head man?142101:21:02.840 --> 01:21:04.479
Oh stout channing?142201:21:05.199 --> 01:21:06.199
Now what I don't know?142301:21:06.960 --> 01:21:07.760
Anything can happen.142401:21:08.399 --> 01:21:09.000
Don't move.142501:21:10.840 --> 01:21:14.840
That's a new chair. He's asking question of the answering.142601:21:15.000 --> 01:21:17.079
I've heard that before. Don't like the sounderus?142701:21:17.840 --> 01:21:19.760
What do do you stay here? I'm going to walk142801:21:19.840 --> 01:21:21.800
right into that circle. You've better be careful, Craig. That142901:21:21.880 --> 01:21:23.880
automatic is going to be much help against the London maniac.143001:21:24.000 --> 01:21:26.119
They'll have to tell your pieces. I doubt it anyway,143101:21:26.159 --> 01:21:26.720
it's what's the chance.143201:21:26.760 --> 01:21:27.560
Oh wait, I better go with you?143301:21:27.840 --> 01:21:30.399
That isn't your a ferret's mind. In case I go143401:21:30.520 --> 01:21:32.479
run gets back to the house. The side saget Tennis143501:21:32.479 --> 01:21:33.319
put in the call of the public.143601:21:33.520 --> 01:21:34.239
Yes, I will.143701:21:34.319 --> 01:21:37.920
Okay, wish we love good luck. Craig he me what143801:21:38.159 --> 01:21:41.079
was that? He it's so bo it's going up behind us.143901:21:41.119 --> 01:21:42.479
I wondered, what had happened to Henry?144001:21:43.279 --> 01:21:45.119
Go back, card back, stay here.144101:21:45.399 --> 01:21:48.000
We've got to find a girl. No the missy lady, No, no, no,144201:21:48.079 --> 01:21:51.680
no book on man, make you back what you see144301:21:51.880 --> 01:21:55.760
that chance it's the killed chance. Go but l you144401:21:55.880 --> 01:21:57.119
know where he is signed?144501:21:57.279 --> 01:21:57.760
She lies?144601:21:57.880 --> 01:21:59.439
Ask him missy lady lives.144701:21:59.479 --> 01:22:01.560
So won'll find superill bring back school?144801:22:02.279 --> 01:22:13.960
All right? Come on, I just bang the house. I144901:22:14.079 --> 01:22:16.399
tell you, Craig, I don't trust your houseboy. It's been145001:22:16.399 --> 01:22:18.079
almost an hour since he tend it's back here. But145101:22:18.199 --> 01:22:21.239
drum stop beating. Long ago it's always been trustworthy. It's145201:22:21.239 --> 01:22:24.760
been with me fifteen years. Let's see if that phone145301:22:24.800 --> 01:22:26.800
works now, maybe we can get through to the port145401:22:26.800 --> 01:22:28.760
of France. And what good will it do? They can't145501:22:28.760 --> 01:22:30.439
get here a less in an hour, and anyway, the145601:22:30.439 --> 01:22:34.880
whole police department couldn't tackle two hundred of them. Hello, Hello, fo.145701:22:35.159 --> 01:22:37.800
There's something wrong with the line. I've got a feeling145801:22:37.840 --> 01:22:40.279
we'll never see that girl again, Craig, dead or alive.145901:22:40.439 --> 01:22:41.680
I wonder her not to word it fears.146001:22:42.119 --> 01:22:43.039
Why didn't you listen to me?146101:22:43.439 --> 01:22:45.439
Why didn't she stay where she belongs? Banking the stakes?146201:22:45.800 --> 01:22:47.399
How would I enough tubble down here without did?146301:22:47.479 --> 01:22:47.600
Now?146401:22:47.680 --> 01:22:49.800
Now, don't load your head, Craig, take it easy, waving146501:22:49.800 --> 01:22:51.920
and landing it more to get us anywhere, I said,146601:22:51.960 --> 01:22:53.199
Get to go out there and look for her again.146701:22:53.680 --> 01:22:55.800
Drums them at channing of stopped. Maybe they'll calm down.146801:22:55.960 --> 01:22:56.479

So we need to.149801:24:15.039 --> 01:24:15.920
Feel better now, don't you.149901:24:19.720 --> 01:24:21.039
Here? You are about it? I'll thank you.150001:24:21.960 --> 01:24:23.399
No drink business color.150101:24:24.119 --> 01:24:24.880
I'll hold your head up.150201:24:31.439 --> 01:24:33.119
Horrible play.150301:24:33.760 --> 01:24:34.479
I don't think you're better.150401:24:34.520 --> 01:24:35.880
Talk so a while I've got.150501:24:37.319 --> 01:24:40.680
He put his body in gray, an open grave.150601:24:42.479 --> 01:24:43.880
What happened when you run across the road?150701:24:43.920 --> 01:24:44.319
Talk about?150801:24:45.119 --> 01:24:47.920
I don't know, it's kinda what's surrounding me.150901:24:48.439 --> 01:24:50.640
I could see her teeth baking.151001:24:50.319 --> 01:24:51.039
In the darkness.151101:24:51.560 --> 01:24:54.199
I speak it all. I'm never until I woke up.151201:24:55.319 --> 01:24:56.760
I was nine in the ground.151301:24:57.359 --> 01:25:00.399
They were all around the grave get by.151401:25:00.439 --> 01:25:04.279
It was one of them was training.151501:25:05.119 --> 01:25:06.840
Make you moves him? And what that?151601:25:07.359 --> 01:25:10.319
Sobo says the man chatting with the Bokoor, the one151701:25:10.359 --> 01:25:12.479
who makes the dead rise and becomes zombies.151801:25:12.520 --> 01:25:15.000
However, I think we've had enough of natal superstition to night, Craig.151901:25:15.199 --> 01:25:17.239
Let's speak to the fact. How to get away from152001:25:17.239 --> 01:25:17.800
missus Camile.152101:25:18.720 --> 01:25:19.840
No one was watching.152201:25:20.640 --> 01:25:22.920
They were all watching the body in the graves.152301:25:23.600 --> 01:25:28.720
I crawled off in the darkness and sub found got152401:25:28.760 --> 01:25:29.279
me back here.152501:25:29.439 --> 01:25:30.279
Yes, it's all over.152601:25:30.399 --> 01:25:33.000
Now it's way for I think you're going to try152701:25:33.000 --> 01:25:33.560
to get to sleep.152801:25:34.119 --> 01:25:35.000
I can't sleep.152901:25:35.840 --> 01:25:36.920
All I keep saying is that.153001:25:37.159 --> 01:25:38.000
Pulling his body?153101:25:38.199 --> 01:25:39.000
Don't think about it.153201:25:39.880 --> 01:25:40.840
Ain'tthing we conclude.153301:25:41.119 --> 01:25:42.760
Isn't the sound way of getting.153401:25:42.479 --> 01:25:45.239
In a decent might as well know what this is153501:25:45.239 --> 01:25:46.279
all about, Miss Carlyle.153601:25:47.159 --> 01:25:47.880
We're all murdered.153701:25:47.920 --> 01:25:50.319
One of the natives. Oh murdered him ten days ago.153801:25:51.359 --> 01:25:53.039
They've been not to get him ever since, in their153901:25:53.079 --> 01:25:56.159
own way. That's why the drums were beating every night.154001:25:57.119 --> 01:25:59.600
I told you what was there usual ceremony, just tho,154101:25:59.800 --> 01:26:02.119
not the fighting you. But it was more than that.154201:26:02.920 --> 01:26:06.680
They were seeking revenge. Now they've got it. You mean154301:26:07.239 --> 01:26:10.199
the cat, that's only part of it. They're going through154401:26:10.199 --> 01:26:12.399
the zombie ritual. Now, that's what you saw at the154501:26:12.479 --> 01:26:15.520
open grave. According to their belief, they can bring the154601:26:15.600 --> 01:26:18.439
rule back to life, make him a living corpse who154701:26:18.479 --> 01:26:19.239
will blay their orders.154801:26:19.760 --> 01:26:21.960
Then why were they putting his body in a grave?154901:26:22.279 --> 01:26:25.199
That's part of the ceremony. They bury him until midnight,155001:26:25.800 --> 01:26:27.600
then the corpse rises at the zombie.155101:26:28.119 --> 01:26:31.520
That's right, and so's the most ghastly thing.155201:26:31.439 --> 01:26:31.960
I ever heard of.155301:26:32.039 --> 01:26:33.880
I am the most ridiculous. I wouldn't be too sure155401:26:33.880 --> 01:26:34.720
about the doctor Noshan.155501:26:34.960 --> 01:26:37.760
How long does he the person remain a zombie?155601:26:38.079 --> 01:26:40.199
As long as they want him to? The polk or155701:26:40.359 --> 01:26:43.359
the head man controls that. They can stop and it will.155801:26:43.560 --> 01:26:46.840
How you're asking the questions, I can't answer doctor questions,155901:26:46.840 --> 01:26:49.600
I wouldn't even attempt to answer. But this much, I156001:26:49.760 --> 01:26:53.520
know there are zombies on this island right now. How156101:26:53.600 --> 01:26:55.960
they came into being? I don't know what they're here.156201:26:56.079 --> 01:26:56.680
I don't believe.156301:26:56.720 --> 01:26:58.359
I hope I never have to prove it to your doctors.156401:26:58.359 --> 01:27:02.239
Did he these zombie talk and act that human beings?156501:27:02.880 --> 01:27:07.119
No, it's a horrible thing to say, but they look dead.156601:27:08.119 --> 01:27:10.279
Their eyes are hollow in, their skin has no color.156701:27:11.159 --> 01:27:14.520
They walk like people in a dream, heavy footed and bledding.156801:27:15.560 --> 01:27:17.520
When they try to speak, all what comes out is156901:27:17.640 --> 01:27:21.000
weird mouthings been very pleasant, I can assure you.157001:27:21.319 --> 01:27:23.359
And that's what they're going to do with the rue.157101:27:23.800 --> 01:27:27.880
Suppose why revenge? They told you he not only killed157201:27:27.920 --> 01:27:30.840
one of them, but he drove them unmercifully. Once heesars157301:27:30.880 --> 01:27:34.079
do but they'll drive him make in sweat. You'll become157401:27:34.119 --> 01:27:37.680
their slave anything they order. You know, that's nonsense, Crave.157501:27:37.760 --> 01:27:38.439
I'm not so sure.157601:27:38.520 --> 01:27:38.760
Doctor.157701:27:38.880 --> 01:27:41.560
Have you ever seen the zombi a living corpse? Only once?157801:27:42.800 --> 01:27:44.239
I never want to see another.157901:27:44.439 --> 01:27:47.279
You mean they're actually people who've been raised from the dead.158001:27:47.359 --> 01:27:47.920
Of course not.158101:27:48.239 --> 01:27:48.880
You can take it from me.158201:27:48.920 --> 01:27:51.359
In the position that death is final, absolutely fine, we're158301:27:51.359 --> 01:27:52.560
absolutt the rest of the world.158401:27:53.279 --> 01:27:55.439
But not in the eighties. I listened, Craig. All your158501:27:55.479 --> 01:27:56.800
managed to do is fip miskl.158601:27:57.359 --> 01:27:58.920
I think perhaps the best thing is Tyler, I would158701:27:59.000 --> 01:28:00.560
leave you to drive back into de Princes with me158801:28:01.039 --> 01:28:03.359
just midnight, be there at one thing, how about it?158901:28:04.359 --> 01:28:06.880
I don't know it's a good idea. Chances are nothing's159001:28:06.880 --> 01:28:11.560
going to happen. But God toobo yep on foot here159101:28:11.600 --> 01:28:15.239

don't hear anything, be the shape ye wait.159301:28:18.399 --> 01:28:27.439
A flashlight. I haven't hear my wait, don't move. It159401:28:27.600 --> 01:28:31.439
was right, you stand over there with a flash. Doctor159501:28:31.720 --> 01:28:32.880

No man back, I said, somebody.159701:28:40.720 --> 01:28:43.079

Come back here, all right, yes, come in time.159901:28:49.000 --> 01:28:52.479
Comes nothing to be afraid of.160001:28:54.479 --> 01:28:57.319
I ain't no hope, but we'll take Carol. I don't know. Yes,160101:28:57.319 --> 01:28:59.479
I'm coming back back, so I said. It's kind of160201:28:59.600 --> 01:28:59.960
black man.160301:29:00.039 --> 01:29:00.560
Pray good.160401:29:00.880 --> 01:29:02.760

Being a dumby?160701:29:05.279 --> 01:29:05.640
Are you play?160801:29:05.680 --> 01:29:08.560
Whatever it is? It doesn't sound human. Step now, yes,160901:29:08.880 --> 01:29:12.159
all right, I'm going to open the door. That light161001:29:12.199 --> 01:29:13.800

you don't worry. The rest six pullets is automatic. That161301:29:17.920 --> 01:29:25.359
should be enough anybody now they don't. There's nobody out161401:29:25.399 --> 01:29:26.640
there careful crag.161501:29:30.079 --> 01:29:31.319
Fortune is empty. Are you sure?161601:29:31.640 --> 01:29:34.720
Positive? Come on there with that flye flighty joke. Sobo,161701:29:35.119 --> 01:29:36.479
we heard any footsteps.161801:29:36.079 --> 01:29:37.399
Didn't mean you're that weird morning, there's that.161901:29:37.439 --> 01:29:41.439
There's no one there now, white light around, that's just162001:29:42.640 --> 01:29:46.199

footprints in the driveway, let's check hard to tell it.162201:29:51.119 --> 01:29:54.279
Nice bears a good queer print. That could be mine162301:29:54.359 --> 01:29:56.239
when I got out of the car. Matter of fact,162401:29:56.279 --> 01:29:58.800
it is. I suggest Craig that we lock up when162501:29:58.800 --> 01:30:01.159
wemin in the house until daylight. No tiense taking chances.162601:30:01.279 --> 01:30:04.600
I will wait the best idea, but I don't understand it.162701:30:05.319 --> 01:30:06.800
Good Lord, that's the car I want.162801:30:07.199 --> 01:30:12.079
Well, I'm you was into the hall. What happens?162901:30:13.359 --> 01:30:14.960
He was standing at the window. Who was standing at163001:30:14.960 --> 01:30:19.159
the window, Miss carl Ause noon, I've never seen anything viable.163101:30:19.159 --> 01:30:20.399
I'm sure it wasn't your imagination.163201:30:20.520 --> 01:30:24.039
No, no, it's like a death pest that's doing.163301:30:24.079 --> 01:30:25.279
It's still right.163401:30:27.119 --> 01:30:28.720

Crag?163901:30:37.239 --> 01:30:38.560
I don't know what they'll make up it. Do you164001:30:38.600 --> 01:30:40.159

it's one of Them's a little rickety.164301:30:44.520 --> 01:30:45.319
What are you supposed to do?164401:30:45.640 --> 01:30:48.159
They go around, stay cause and keep that light swinging.164501:30:49.119 --> 01:30:49.640
That's fine.164601:30:49.800 --> 01:30:51.119
I really tend to do much better off.164701:30:51.159 --> 01:30:52.279
We lost all day in the windows.164801:30:52.720 --> 01:30:53.199
Hold up.164901:30:56.039 --> 01:30:59.239

It's a man stealing it.165301:31:07.640 --> 01:31:09.119
He's punning away to go.165401:31:09.239 --> 01:31:11.720

S creaker, you are your mind.166301:31:29.840 --> 01:31:30.960
You can't burn a man alive up.166401:31:31.000 --> 01:31:32.359
Makes you think he's alive, He's.166501:31:32.239 --> 01:31:32.840
Good to be alive.166601:31:32.880 --> 01:31:33.560
We saw him morning.166701:31:33.680 --> 01:31:35.840
You still won't admit that. Strange things happening here on166801:31:35.880 --> 01:31:36.399
the island with you.166901:31:36.600 --> 01:31:36.960

He says, you can't get any other way.167501:31:53.520 --> 01:31:56.159
Now, the all out, the front windows. I'm watching them all.167601:31:57.199 --> 01:32:01.159
This pretty doesn't stop him nothing, well enough f himself?167701:32:03.159 --> 01:32:03.640
Time money.167801:32:03.640 --> 01:32:06.840
If you go ahead, write the light through the open door?167901:32:07.880 --> 01:32:08.520
The hut empty?168001:32:08.920 --> 01:32:11.359
No it isn't he stretched out on a bed, dave.168101:32:11.680 --> 01:32:12.800
Yes, what do you do that for?168201:32:12.960 --> 01:32:13.359
I don't know.168301:32:13.760 --> 01:32:14.560
Take the light on him.168401:32:14.560 --> 01:32:17.720
Come on, this may be a trap.168501:32:17.800 --> 01:32:20.760
Cree care I'm watching him over the light, steady, steady168601:32:20.760 --> 01:32:21.159
as I can.168701:32:21.600 --> 01:32:22.399
Are we going into the hut?168801:32:22.520 --> 01:32:22.680
Yes?168901:32:23.640 --> 01:32:32.960
The right behind me? Well, there he is, Dante over169001:32:32.960 --> 01:32:34.479
the light, Craig, Let me get a look at him.169101:32:34.520 --> 01:32:38.439
Keep it down. Mistakes this ti I was right with169201:32:38.720 --> 01:32:41.800
the blue the skin ghostly wife. Are you sure this169301:32:41.960 --> 01:32:43.319
man is the rude you're for him?169401:32:43.680 --> 01:32:43.880
Yes?169501:32:44.520 --> 01:32:47.079
I can't believe it's what you need. He sit the169601:32:47.119 --> 01:32:49.239
man we saw running into the hut, Yes, of course,169701:32:49.760 --> 01:32:51.760
And you were right evidence.169801:32:51.800 --> 01:32:53.680
Very strange things do happen on this island.169901:32:53.920 --> 01:32:55.640
They do, yes, Craig.170001:32:56.560 --> 01:32:58.720
It's man has been dead for three hours.170101:33:18.760 --> 01:33:25.439
Ah the air is so cool, so brisk and crisp.170201:33:26.600 --> 01:33:32.000
I do love fall and winter so very much. I'll170301:33:32.039 --> 01:33:34.600
put a few more logs on the fire and we'll170401:33:35.039 --> 01:33:38.680
put a stop to that, at least as best we can.170501:33:42.520 --> 01:33:50.520
As the cool air spins around, lapping against our walls. Well,170601:33:51.239 --> 01:33:55.239
even concrete walls as thick as this, they are no170701:33:55.479 --> 01:34:02.439
match for the non stop assault. But I say we170801:34:02.760 --> 01:34:09.000
just kick back, relax and enjoy the night.170901:34:09.239 --> 01:34:14.760
Melody the Signal Oil Program. Whizzler.171001:34:18.159 --> 01:34:31.159
Yeah, that whistle is your signal for the Signal Oil Program.171101:34:32.199 --> 01:34:32.920
No whizzler.171201:34:36.279 --> 01:34:55.399
Yeah, I am the whispler, and I know many things171301:34:55.680 --> 01:34:59.479
where I walk by night. I know many strange tales171401:35:00.079 --> 01:35:02.159
hidden in the hearts of men and women who have171501:35:02.279 --> 01:35:08.119
stepped into the shadows. Yeah, I know the nameless parents171601:35:08.199 --> 01:35:09.880
of which they dare not speak.171701:35:15.640 --> 01:35:18.319
Yes, friends, it's time for the Signal Oil Program.171801:35:18.520 --> 01:35:20.199
The Whistler rated.171901:35:19.960 --> 01:35:24.800
By independent research the most popular West Coast programs. In gasoline,172001:35:24.840 --> 01:35:28.239
you know it takes extra quality to go farther, and172101:35:28.479 --> 01:35:32.079
Signal is the famous go farther gasoline. So look for172201:35:32.159 --> 01:35:35.840
the signal circle sign in yellow and black and identifies172301:35:35.960 --> 01:35:41.079
signal service stations from Canada to Mexico and now the172401:35:41.159 --> 01:35:45.239
Whistler Strange story night Melody.172501:35:58.760 --> 01:36:00.000
Marshall was nervous.172601:36:00.600 --> 01:36:03.319
His hands shook as he dialed Helen's number on the172701:36:03.399 --> 01:36:06.239
phone in the drug store a block away from the apartment.172801:36:07.199 --> 01:36:10.319
He realized he shouldn't be calling her now, of all times.172901:36:11.279 --> 01:36:14.000
He knew he was coming back tonight, knew every.173001:36:13.880 --> 01:36:14.960
Step of the prams.173101:36:15.600 --> 01:36:19.079
They've gone over it carefully a week ago before he'd left,173201:36:19.199 --> 01:36:22.640
foreseen it. But even though it was dangerous, he had173301:36:22.720 --> 01:36:27.159
the caller. I'm the still that terrible unsure feeling in173401:36:27.199 --> 01:36:30.119
the pit of his stomach, and Helen reacted us as173501:36:30.159 --> 01:36:30.840
he infected.173601:36:31.279 --> 01:36:33.159
But I told you not to call me, Marshall.173701:36:33.239 --> 01:36:34.800
I had to, Helen. I had to make sure.173801:36:35.359 --> 01:36:38.239
What about the alley doors a few minutes ago?173901:36:38.399 --> 01:36:39.800
You know what you're going to say when they call you?174001:36:39.920 --> 01:36:42.800
In course, Sure, mister Princess will be coming home at174101:36:42.800 --> 01:36:45.960
the same time, Marsham, he's a regulars.174201:36:45.479 --> 01:36:50.680
Cockwork be silly, darling. You can trust me.174301:36:51.439 --> 01:36:53.560
Everything is just waiting for you to walk in.174401:36:54.000 --> 01:36:54.439
Oh I do.174501:36:55.239 --> 01:37:06.920
I'll be there in ten minutes. Yes, it's all waiting174601:37:07.079 --> 01:37:10.520
for you, Marshall. Your side door open and ready for you.174701:37:11.319 --> 01:37:14.720
The vial of poison in your pocket, your wife Melody174801:37:14.800 --> 01:37:19.319
alone in the apartment. It's sister Helen upstairs, ready with174901:37:19.479 --> 01:37:23.520
her story of the strange man. But the tense, uncertain175001:37:23.680 --> 01:37:26.800
feeling is still there, worse now as you sit in175101:37:26.880 --> 01:37:30.720
the room with Melody talking to her, knowing what's going175201:37:30.800 --> 01:37:31.479
to happen in a.175301:37:31.520 --> 01:37:32.319
Matter of minutes.175401:37:34.119 --> 01:37:39.359
My dear wandering husband, same is ever, always doing unexpected, surprised,175501:37:40.279 --> 01:37:41.000
not exactly.175601:37:41.600 --> 01:37:43.560
Only one thing could have brought you home from Toomi175701:37:43.680 --> 01:37:44.039
this way.175801:37:45.359 --> 01:37:46.920
Come to say good bye, haven't you?175901:37:47.640 --> 01:37:48.800
Very direct? Melody?176001:37:50.159 --> 01:37:53.800
I I'm sorry it didn't work out, Marshall.176101:37:55.840 --> 01:37:58.600
I mean, that's beside the poem, as I guess it is.176201:37:59.880 --> 01:38:02.640
I suppose it's my own fault in a way. I176301:38:02.760 --> 01:38:08.159
have pretty your little like a toy, an expensive one176401:38:08.199 --> 01:38:10.199
of chray Let's forget that, Charlie.176501:38:11.399 --> 01:38:14.039
All were adults, and there's no reason why we shouldn't176601:38:14.079 --> 01:38:14.920
part good friends.176701:38:15.800 --> 01:38:18.920
You're so right, Marshall, always so.176801:38:19.159 --> 01:38:23.880
Right, skirt, have a drink on it, huh? All right, Scott.176901:38:23.920 --> 01:38:25.600
And because.177001:38:27.560 --> 01:38:30.920
Remember your new playmate is Marshall, I hope she has money,177101:38:31.600 --> 01:38:33.359
because you certainly won't get any of mine.177201:38:34.319 --> 01:38:36.359
I was not talking to my sister this eason Ella177301:38:37.800 --> 01:38:38.359
she got to do.177401:38:39.079 --> 01:38:41.199
I told her again, and if anything happens to me,177501:38:42.000 --> 01:38:43.720
everything I have goes to her.177601:38:45.039 --> 01:38:47.199
That's all rap as it should be.177701:38:48.880 --> 01:38:51.600
Huh, what's better music box?177801:38:51.960 --> 01:38:55.159
I'm going ahead with my makeup if you don't mind177901:38:56.239 --> 01:38:57.640
my new persume Bottle Deer.178001:38:58.399 --> 01:39:03.359
I just got it yesterday. Clever, isn't it same old perfume?178101:39:04.520 --> 01:39:04.720
Night?178201:39:04.880 --> 01:39:05.399
Melody?178301:39:06.359 --> 01:39:07.880
Suppose to it my personality?178401:39:07.960 --> 01:39:11.199
You know I never liked it you.178501:39:13.279 --> 01:39:15.359
I was rather surprised to find your dressed.178601:39:15.960 --> 01:39:17.079
You going somewhere?178701:39:17.920 --> 01:39:18.600
Does it matter?178801:39:19.800 --> 01:39:24.119
I suppose it's none of my business. Now, Well, here's178901:39:24.159 --> 01:39:24.640
your drink.179001:39:25.119 --> 01:39:29.079
Let me put that to some mad Why can I179101:39:29.159 --> 01:39:29.960
doesn't mean to do it.179201:39:30.039 --> 01:39:37.680
I'm sorry, Melody here, you are wrong.179301:39:38.239 --> 01:39:38.960
You don't like it.179401:39:39.600 --> 01:39:40.239
You never like.179501:39:41.960 --> 01:39:45.319
We're good friends. Remember if you drink?179601:39:46.319 --> 01:39:50.399
Oh, all right, in the future.179701:39:50.800 --> 01:39:51.640
To the future.179801:39:57.279 --> 01:40:00.880
I've never tasted a quite promise promise.179901:40:03.720 --> 01:40:05.399
Marc Michael.180001:40:15.279 --> 01:40:20.520
Well it worked, Marshal and quickly. Yeah, trial Cranan always180101:40:20.640 --> 01:40:23.920
drs and the full vial and Melody's drink made.180201:40:23.800 --> 01:40:25.359
It almost instantaneous.180301:40:26.199 --> 01:40:29.000
You bend over a check and straighten up and look180401:40:29.039 --> 01:40:34.119
at your watch. One fifteen, still unscheduled. It takes on180501:40:34.239 --> 01:40:36.800
me a moment to rinse out the two glasses, then180601:40:36.920 --> 01:40:38.319
hurry to the door, open.180701:40:38.159 --> 01:40:41.239
It and look into the hall. No one in sights, Marshall,180801:40:41.960 --> 01:40:42.920
it's perfect.180901:40:48.359 --> 01:40:52.079
One minute later you're carrying Melody to the automatic elevator,181001:40:52.600 --> 01:40:55.119
held on the fourth floor by the little block of181101:40:55.199 --> 01:40:57.039
wood you left to prop the door open.181201:40:57.600 --> 01:41:01.000
You put her inside, lest the door clothes and start181301:41:01.119 --> 01:41:02.000
down the stairs.181401:41:05.920 --> 01:41:09.000
At one twenty six, you're standing in the shadows of181501:41:09.079 --> 01:41:12.720
the trubbery outside the building. At your feet the suitcase181601:41:12.800 --> 01:41:34.039
you hit there drinking ranking Well, it's finish. Uh uh oh, blake,181701:41:34.119 --> 01:41:36.560
you startled me. I said, no, you were coming along the.181801:41:36.560 --> 01:41:38.600
Side long trying to catch up with you for a block.181901:41:39.079 --> 01:41:42.319
Well, the suits well back from another business took yes182001:41:42.439 --> 01:41:48.000
from flight dollars. We all thanks rather nice to meet182101:41:48.039 --> 01:41:50.720
someone for the change. I'm usually a lone wolf, you know.182201:41:51.640 --> 01:41:54.760
I suppose it's a lot of every nightclub manager. Oh182301:41:55.319 --> 01:41:59.600
you're in for the elevator, yep, already started down your wife,182401:41:59.640 --> 01:42:00.600
expect can you blake?182501:42:00.840 --> 01:42:02.760
Why no? I didn't get a chance to wire her.182601:42:04.000 --> 01:42:15.960
Probably be quite a surprise, and it will be quite182701:42:16.000 --> 01:42:21.239
a surprise wounded Marshal. Yeah, you'll probably have to take182801:42:21.359 --> 01:42:24.640
Trentis off the floor when that elevator door opens and182901:42:24.720 --> 01:42:26.079
he sees what's inside.183001:42:26.880 --> 01:42:30.560
But most important of all, Trentis will produce an alibi.183101:42:30.800 --> 01:42:34.640
No one could possibly break down. Yes, it's so natural.183201:42:35.359 --> 01:42:37.960
You're walking up to him outside. This two's case in183301:42:38.079 --> 01:42:41.560
your hands, just back from Phoenix, the two of you183401:42:41.720 --> 01:42:45.319
walking in together, discovering melody together.183501:42:46.319 --> 01:42:48.159
Yes, Marshall, it's air tight.183601:42:48.600 --> 01:42:51.279
And if the elevator dial moves around you begin.183701:42:51.199 --> 01:42:52.560
To brace yourself for.183801:42:54.279 --> 01:42:56.159
Three two.183901:42:57.600 --> 01:42:57.840
One.184001:43:01.479 --> 01:43:07.399
You're ready now waiting Frantish flags the door back, the184101:43:07.560 --> 01:43:08.359
elevator is.184201:43:10.039 --> 01:43:16.079
And well, what's the matter, blench? Step in. There's plenty184301:43:16.119 --> 01:43:16.479
of room.184401:43:26.439 --> 01:43:30.199
With the prologue of knife Melody, the Signal Oil Company184501:43:30.319 --> 01:43:36.680
is bringing you another strange tale by the whistler. We184601:43:36.800 --> 01:43:39.760
know the sound effects they use for radio are mighty interesting.184701:43:40.520 --> 01:43:43.199
For instance, suppose I were to broadcast that message you184801:43:43.279 --> 01:43:47.359
see in Signal Gasoline ads. It takes extra quality to184901:43:47.439 --> 01:43:51.199
go farther, and Signal is the famous go farther gasoline.185001:43:52.039 --> 01:43:54.640
Now if I said that through the filter mic, here's185101:43:54.680 --> 01:43:55.479
how it would sound.185201:43:57.000 --> 01:44:01.840
It takes extra quality to go farther and signal is185301:44:01.920 --> 01:44:03.800
the famous go farther gasoline.185401:44:05.279 --> 01:44:07.439
On the other hand, through the echo chamber, it would185501:44:07.479 --> 01:44:08.039
sound like this.185601:44:09.680 --> 01:44:14.760
It takes extra quality to go farther, and signal is185701:44:14.840 --> 01:44:20.119
the famous go farther gasoline. But after all, the important185801:44:20.119 --> 01:44:22.239
thing is what you say, not how you say it.185901:44:23.079 --> 01:44:25.680
And in gasoline, the important thing is that it takes186001:44:25.840 --> 01:44:30.199
extra quality to go farther, and signal is the famous186101:44:30.279 --> 01:44:35.239
go farther gasoline. We see those quick signal starts save gasoline.186201:44:35.720 --> 01:44:39.319
That fast signal pickup and smooth knock free signal power186301:44:39.479 --> 01:44:43.479
mean more efficient engine performance. And if a gasoline helps186401:44:43.520 --> 01:44:46.840
you enjoy more engine efficiency, it naturally helps you get186501:44:46.880 --> 01:44:47.560
more mileides.186601:44:48.399 --> 01:44:49.800
That's why signal.186701:44:49.479 --> 01:44:52.359
Says, just check your steedometer for the best proof of186801:44:52.479 --> 01:44:57.279
gasoline quality. You'll find it's true. In gasoline, it does186901:44:57.439 --> 01:45:02.960
take extra quality to go farther. And remember signal is187001:45:03.039 --> 01:45:07.880
the famous gold father gasoline. And all back to the whistler.187101:45:32.399 --> 01:45:34.640
You stand at the door of the elevator like an187201:45:34.680 --> 01:45:39.359
idiot to stun the speak It's It's unbelievable, isn't it. Marshall.187301:45:40.119 --> 01:45:43.640
You put Melody's body in that elevator that's five minutes ago.187401:45:44.640 --> 01:45:46.840
That the car is empty.187501:45:50.039 --> 01:45:51.640
You'll fight an impulse to run.187601:45:51.600 --> 01:45:54.359
Out of the elevator upstairs to the fifth floor and187701:45:54.439 --> 01:45:55.279
Helen's department.187801:45:55.680 --> 01:45:57.399
But you can't, can you, Marshall.187901:45:58.359 --> 01:46:00.960
No one must know there was ever more than a188001:46:01.079 --> 01:46:03.640
casual friendship between Hugh and Helen.188101:46:04.319 --> 01:46:07.520
As the car rises, you'll tell yourself that your wife188201:46:07.600 --> 01:46:08.399
Melody is dead.188301:46:08.880 --> 01:46:12.319
But she couldn't get up and walk away, or could she?188401:46:13.199 --> 01:46:16.479
You follow pranted out under the fourth floor and got188501:46:16.560 --> 01:46:18.680
down the corridor, deciding now it's.188601:46:18.600 --> 01:46:20.840
Best to keep close to him for the time being.188701:46:21.600 --> 01:46:24.079
You seem a little ruffer to night blake anything wrong?188801:46:24.159 --> 01:46:26.840
Oh, no, no, no, I had kind of a rough188901:46:26.880 --> 01:46:31.560
time on the plane through. And well, come on in, Prentice,189001:46:32.079 --> 01:46:34.760
have a nightcap, which won't redisturb your wife. Oh she189101:46:34.800 --> 01:46:38.880
won't mind, just a quickie. Well you know me good,189201:46:39.880 --> 01:46:45.640
I know Melody'll be happy to see. Your lights are wrong.189301:46:45.800 --> 01:46:46.840
Perhaps she's still up.189401:46:47.119 --> 01:46:57.760
Melody, Oh, Melody, Melody dolling, I'm home. What's the matter?189501:46:58.520 --> 01:46:59.840
She's not here, she's not mere part.189601:47:00.119 --> 01:47:02.199
What's wrong with that? I don't know?189701:47:02.680 --> 01:47:04.319
Or she might have gone out for the evening, or189801:47:04.960 --> 01:47:06.119
wait a minute, look there.189901:47:06.439 --> 01:47:07.159
Huh at all?190001:47:07.199 --> 01:47:09.479
The night bag next to to the band. Was she190101:47:09.680 --> 01:47:13.640
going somewhere? She couldn't, I mean she couldn't have gone far,190201:47:13.880 --> 01:47:19.159
of course, not well, Blake, what about it? What about fun?190301:47:19.439 --> 01:47:21.880
Didn't you ask me in for a drink? Yes?190401:47:22.279 --> 01:47:25.640
Sure, happy stuff for it's on the sideboards right o.190501:47:26.159 --> 01:47:31.239
And I'd say you could use a drink. Well, that's strange.190601:47:32.560 --> 01:47:35.720
She couldn't have leasted very long ago. These glasses must190701:47:35.760 --> 01:47:39.720
have been rinsed in hot water. They're still warm. Oh yes, cry.190801:47:43.640 --> 01:47:44.840
Now how do you suppose it?190901:47:47.159 --> 01:47:47.359
Hey?191001:47:47.840 --> 01:47:49.640
What is that confume? Oh?191101:47:49.960 --> 01:47:53.159
Yes, it's a favorite of my wife, named for her191201:47:53.319 --> 01:47:56.199
something night melody.191301:48:03.640 --> 01:48:07.279
And the scent of it, heavier than ever now, makes.191401:48:07.119 --> 01:48:12.079
You almost feel melody near you, freet beckoning, filling the191501:48:12.159 --> 01:48:14.840
room with her presence, her brittle, mocking laugh.191601:48:16.119 --> 01:48:19.039
At long last, Francis finishes his drink.191701:48:19.319 --> 01:48:22.119
And the minute you hear his door close across the hall,191801:48:22.199 --> 01:48:25.600
you hurry out, search the corridors on the fourth floor,191901:48:26.359 --> 01:48:29.880
and down the stairs to the third, the second, and192001:48:30.039 --> 01:48:31.079
finally into the lobby.192101:48:31.960 --> 01:48:45.520
Where is she, Marshall? What happened to Meredith? Oh?192201:48:45.600 --> 01:48:50.359
Missus, I thought I heard someone or something wrong?192301:48:50.399 --> 01:48:51.039
But my wife.192401:48:51.079 --> 01:48:52.600
I'm awfully worried, Miss McPherson.192501:48:52.720 --> 01:48:56.720
She's not only apart worse. But didn't you know now what? Well?192601:48:56.840 --> 01:48:58.760
I thought she was leaving on a trip tonight.192701:48:58.960 --> 01:49:01.479
She didn't tell me. I just got in from fat.192801:49:01.319 --> 01:49:04.039
Oh dear, yeah, you must have just missed each other.192901:49:04.800 --> 01:49:07.039
I'm sure I leard missus Blake go out. And I.193001:49:08.800 --> 01:49:10.800
I'm sure that now that your wife's perfume.193101:49:10.880 --> 01:49:11.560
Can't you smell it?193201:49:11.800 --> 01:49:13.199
Yes? I do smell.193301:49:13.279 --> 01:49:15.279
Oh well, baby, I'll check, are you mister Blake?193401:49:15.279 --> 01:49:16.720
I'll call the nightmare.193501:49:17.079 --> 01:49:19.439
Brought her trunk up from the basement this afternoon. Now,193601:49:19.520 --> 01:49:20.359
I'm sure you know.193701:49:30.039 --> 01:49:31.520
And you say she didn't.193801:49:31.399 --> 01:49:33.760
Mention anything to you this afternoon, mister.193901:49:33.600 --> 01:49:38.880
Novello, Yes, I say, well, mister Blake's quite worried. And194001:49:40.159 --> 01:49:43.640
oh you did you saw her leave the building short194101:49:43.680 --> 01:49:44.119

What did he say? The nightmare saw her leave?194301:49:47.960 --> 01:49:48.119
God?194401:49:48.159 --> 01:49:49.279
What time, mister Novello?194501:49:51.000 --> 01:49:51.760
One thirty or so?194601:49:51.960 --> 01:49:52.760
Wait a minute, what's he?194701:49:55.000 --> 01:49:56.520
And she was carrying her over night day?194801:49:56.760 --> 01:50:00.600
I say, well, thank you, yeah, good night. Tell me194901:50:00.680 --> 01:50:02.640
what do you say about she was carrying it with her?195001:50:03.880 --> 01:50:04.039
Oh?195101:50:04.720 --> 01:50:08.479
Now, there's nothing to worry about. This to Blake, top off,195201:50:08.520 --> 01:50:11.479
fixes some key and gonna be a moment and I'll.195301:50:13.399 --> 01:50:17.640
That's ascume it's easier too. Is that odd?195401:50:28.960 --> 01:50:29.199
Gee?195501:50:30.640 --> 01:50:35.079

Oh? Oh, prendis I'm having a little trouble to key here?195901:50:45.880 --> 01:50:46.640
I get it in a minute.196001:50:47.239 --> 01:50:47.479
Matter?196101:50:47.600 --> 01:50:48.600
All the key is locked?196201:50:48.640 --> 01:50:48.840
Yeah?196301:50:48.920 --> 01:50:49.119
Let me?196401:50:52.039 --> 01:50:55.479
Oh you want thanks? Is there something wrong?196501:50:55.640 --> 01:50:55.680
No?196601:50:56.199 --> 01:50:59.920
No, nothing, funny way. I don't mean to be curious,196701:51:00.119 --> 01:51:01.880
but good lord man, there's nothing.196801:51:01.680 --> 01:51:03.680
To get worked up about me. See why is it?196901:51:03.720 --> 01:51:05.000
Excuse me? And I would excuse me?197001:51:08.199 --> 01:51:08.479
See her?197101:51:08.520 --> 01:51:10.239
Either? God?197201:51:10.560 --> 01:51:12.760
What's gone? Uber knight fag melody?197301:51:13.399 --> 01:51:14.399
It was here a minute ago.197401:51:15.840 --> 01:51:18.479
I guess that's what she came back for. What did197501:51:18.520 --> 01:51:18.800
you say?197601:51:19.239 --> 01:51:21.720
Well, I thought it was she someone came and went197701:51:21.800 --> 01:51:22.520
only a minute ago.197801:51:22.640 --> 01:51:26.159
But she couldn't have. I mean, I looked, Blake. There's197901:51:26.239 --> 01:51:27.279
one way to settle it.198001:51:27.640 --> 01:51:36.159
Let's go up and check with her sister, Helen. And198101:51:36.359 --> 01:51:38.279
that's not on the program either, is it.198201:51:38.439 --> 01:51:38.800
Marcia.198301:51:39.399 --> 01:51:43.319
You're too bewildered to even think now that mister Prentiss198401:51:43.399 --> 01:51:45.880
guide you up the stairs to the next floor and198501:51:46.199 --> 01:51:51.199
Helen's apartment. Someone knows. You're sure of it now. Someone198601:51:51.279 --> 01:51:53.520
has been in on it from the first and the198701:51:53.640 --> 01:51:56.960
whole thing is a castle insidious plan to drap you.198801:51:58.039 --> 01:52:00.199
But who, marsal who could have be?198901:52:00.800 --> 01:52:03.000
Then as the two of you start down the sixth199001:52:03.079 --> 01:52:05.800
floor corridor, something hits you between the eyes.199101:52:08.640 --> 01:52:10.159
Don't be silly, darling.199201:52:10.319 --> 01:52:13.800
You can trust me. Everything is just waiting for you199301:52:13.920 --> 01:52:14.399
to walk in.199401:52:16.640 --> 01:52:20.399
You stop short for a minute, your mind spinning, then199501:52:20.560 --> 01:52:24.760
continue on after Prinice walk in, Marshall.199601:52:26.399 --> 01:52:34.960
Walk into what's nothing at all?199701:52:35.000 --> 01:52:35.479
Miss Maids.199801:52:35.520 --> 01:52:39.159
I'm sorry, Helen, something's wrong. What if we didn't want199901:52:39.159 --> 01:52:41.119
to disturb you? Miss Mason be I'm a little concerned200001:52:41.119 --> 01:52:41.760
about Melody.200101:52:41.800 --> 01:52:42.000
Helen.200201:52:42.039 --> 01:52:44.239
I well, you know, I've been in Phoenix for the200301:52:44.279 --> 01:52:44.960
past two weeks.200401:52:45.000 --> 01:52:48.439
I just return unexpectedly and tell me tell me, Marshall,200501:52:48.479 --> 01:52:50.399
wonder well she isn't at.200601:52:50.359 --> 01:52:52.039
Home, Melody?200701:52:52.319 --> 01:52:52.920
Is he at home?200801:52:53.319 --> 01:52:55.800
There's really nothing to be get alarmed about you? No,200901:52:55.920 --> 01:52:58.560
of course, that she planned a trip can't seem to201001:52:58.600 --> 01:53:01.399
convince Blake. Look that, please, mister Prennis, would you mind201101:53:01.399 --> 01:53:03.479
if I talked to Helen alone?201201:53:03.760 --> 01:53:04.199
Not at all?201301:53:04.680 --> 01:53:07.119
The madness Mason worried that serves you, but.201401:53:07.359 --> 01:53:10.800
Poor Blake here of course, come in Marshall and thank you,201501:53:10.880 --> 01:53:11.520
mister pretis.201601:53:13.600 --> 01:53:14.600
What's not everything?201701:53:14.680 --> 01:53:15.119
Did you do it?201801:53:15.239 --> 01:53:15.439
Yes?201901:53:15.560 --> 01:53:18.239
Right, I'll schedule only one thing. When Trennis and I202001:53:18.319 --> 01:53:21.399
opened the elevator door, she wasn't there, you lad, She202101:53:21.600 --> 01:53:22.079
wasn't there.202201:53:22.800 --> 01:53:24.720
Everybody's trying to tell me she's walking.202301:53:24.479 --> 01:53:25.199
Around the building.202401:53:25.279 --> 01:53:27.359
Oh, Marshall, are you sure you are dead? I tell202501:53:27.359 --> 01:53:28.960
you when I put it in that elevator, she will.202601:53:30.600 --> 01:53:33.239
Tell me. Now tell me exactly what happened.202701:53:33.319 --> 01:53:36.279
It went off perfectly. I got up to her apartment202801:53:36.399 --> 01:53:38.159
just after one. We talked a while.202901:53:38.199 --> 01:53:39.840
I suggested a farewell drink, and.203001:53:41.560 --> 01:53:49.239
Then I go on, wait a minute, Helen, it's the203101:53:49.359 --> 01:53:55.600
latter she's been here to headens. I shall Melody here203201:53:55.640 --> 01:53:56.079
in this room.203301:53:56.800 --> 01:53:58.600
I can smell it. Are you Talkinglody?203401:53:58.840 --> 01:53:59.279
Perfume?203501:54:00.600 --> 01:54:03.199
I didn't know. Only one way it could have happened, Helen,203601:54:04.079 --> 01:54:05.000
Just one way.203701:54:06.039 --> 01:54:09.159
No, you're double crossing me, Helen. You're trying to use203801:54:09.239 --> 01:54:10.119
me for a fall. Guy.203901:54:10.199 --> 01:54:12.239
It's Melody's money, isn't it. That's all you're life.204001:54:13.079 --> 01:54:13.840
Did you do with Helen?204101:54:14.039 --> 01:54:16.000
What did you do with Melody? The next thing I204201:54:16.079 --> 01:54:18.000
know she'll tam up in my lafe of fifteen witnesses.204301:54:18.319 --> 01:54:19.319
And you're gonna spring that.204401:54:20.159 --> 01:54:21.319
Do you don't know what you're saying?204501:54:21.560 --> 01:54:23.119
You credit for better sense, you're in it.204601:54:23.199 --> 01:54:24.840
You know you're in as deep as I am. Well,204701:54:24.880 --> 01:54:25.840
it's not gonna work, Helen.204801:54:25.920 --> 01:54:26.760
You better understand that.204901:54:26.920 --> 01:54:27.239
Right now.205001:54:27.479 --> 01:54:29.279
I shall listen listening to you.205101:54:32.800 --> 01:54:34.359
It's god to believe, the need.205201:54:34.319 --> 01:54:36.760
Be first to late hell and I.205301:54:38.720 --> 01:54:39.600
I couldn't believe.205401:54:39.720 --> 01:54:40.880
Oh my good gone.205501:54:41.800 --> 01:54:45.399
Listen to me now I know where I live. It's205601:54:45.439 --> 01:54:46.680
only one way we can win.205701:54:47.479 --> 01:54:54.680
We've got I love you. I love you so much.205801:54:55.399 --> 01:54:56.840
If she's gone, it's because.205901:54:56.600 --> 01:55:00.680
Someone found it, because someone knows all the manager even206001:55:01.199 --> 01:55:02.319
there's only one way.206101:55:02.159 --> 01:55:05.479
Out now, Marshall, there's much time for me. They do206201:55:05.800 --> 01:55:07.880
know Donald that they don't know enough.206301:55:08.560 --> 01:55:09.840
They'll get to be here by now.206401:55:10.600 --> 01:55:13.079
We've got to get out of here right now. My206501:55:13.199 --> 01:55:15.600
car's down in the basement garage. We can be out206601:55:15.600 --> 01:55:16.840
of the state by daylight.206701:55:19.000 --> 01:55:23.399
Know what that means, Yes, Marshall, I know what that means.206801:55:31.119 --> 01:55:34.199
There's a sick feeling of deceit inside you as you206901:55:34.279 --> 01:55:38.079
wait for her to drift. If you know what it means,207001:55:38.159 --> 01:55:41.399
to run now, don't you, Marshall. From this minute, i'me207101:55:41.760 --> 01:55:43.840
the two of you are giving up all start of207201:55:43.880 --> 01:55:47.520
the money, admitting to the world and the law that207301:55:47.720 --> 01:55:48.520
you murdered.207401:55:48.680 --> 01:55:50.960
Melody play that. Helen's right.207501:55:51.680 --> 01:55:53.479
There's only one expliment.207601:55:54.560 --> 01:55:57.720
They know everything, and from now on it's only.207701:55:57.560 --> 01:55:58.640
A matter of time.207801:56:00.039 --> 01:56:00.439
M hmm.207901:56:01.119 --> 01:56:03.159
Five minutes later, the two of you are in the208001:56:03.199 --> 01:56:06.159
elevator going down to the basement, and Helen.208101:56:06.159 --> 01:56:10.399
Car that's a master.208201:56:10.720 --> 01:56:11.439
Get the door.208301:56:16.840 --> 01:56:17.720
Over here.208401:56:19.560 --> 01:56:20.119
So dark.208501:56:20.199 --> 01:56:25.880
I can't take my Arn't.208601:56:23.760 --> 01:56:25.199
There anyone on duty?208701:56:25.760 --> 01:56:32.199
The nightmare's working upstairs? I think, Honey, darling, that's the208801:56:32.319 --> 01:56:33.520
less Helen.208901:56:34.600 --> 01:56:38.760
Look, I'll staple over there under the window.209001:56:39.800 --> 01:56:40.399
I'll see you.209101:56:55.920 --> 01:56:57.000
Tell do you are dead?209201:56:58.439 --> 01:56:58.880
You are.209301:57:01.840 --> 01:57:04.800
Awful? I had no idea when.209401:57:04.720 --> 01:57:08.399
I please, Miss McPherson, who you, Lieutenant Brackett homicide?209501:57:08.720 --> 01:57:09.880
Missus mcpherston called it.209601:57:10.159 --> 01:57:12.039
But why what are you doing here?209701:57:12.319 --> 01:57:14.399
I don't think it's necessary to explain that.209801:57:15.119 --> 01:57:17.880
You surprised Helen nor your son.209901:57:18.000 --> 01:57:21.119
Don't you right out of a clear sky? You had210001:57:21.159 --> 01:57:21.760
no idea?210101:57:22.119 --> 01:57:22.520
Please?210201:57:22.880 --> 01:57:26.039
I believe that that's the trouble. I did believe we210301:57:26.079 --> 01:57:28.399
should have had better sense. Helen it won't work. You know,210401:57:28.560 --> 01:57:30.680
it's the wrong kind of a frame. There's still two210501:57:30.760 --> 01:57:34.279
of it, not more to helen you and I. You210601:57:34.399 --> 01:57:36.960
get that, Lieutenant, two of it. I didn't tell her I.210701:57:37.000 --> 01:57:37.920
Was a machine, the dummy.210801:57:37.960 --> 01:57:38.760
She pulled the strings.210901:57:41.039 --> 01:57:42.560
I'm pulling the strings.211001:57:42.199 --> 01:57:47.239
Now on them all right, officer. Will make yourself comfortable.211101:57:47.920 --> 01:57:49.520
I've got quite a story to tell you.211201:58:03.119 --> 01:58:05.239
The whistler will return in just a moment with a211301:58:05.279 --> 01:58:09.640
strange ending to the night's story. But now a message,211401:58:09.720 --> 01:58:13.000
especially for you drivers who have new cars or expect211501:58:13.039 --> 01:58:16.479
to be getting one. Just any motor oil won't do211601:58:16.640 --> 01:58:20.239
you know, for today's high efficiency motors, No, sir, they211701:58:20.359 --> 01:58:24.800
need special protection against corrosion, wear and carbon if they're211801:58:24.800 --> 01:58:26.920
to give you the long trouble free service you have211901:58:26.960 --> 01:58:30.439
a right to expect. So Signal has brought out a212001:58:30.600 --> 01:58:34.439
finer motor oil, especially created to give modern motors this212101:58:34.640 --> 01:58:39.199
extra protection, Signal Premium motor Oil. Of course, it has212201:58:39.279 --> 01:58:43.199
one hundred percent pure paraffin base. But in addition, Signal212301:58:43.279 --> 01:58:48.800
Premium contains five scientific new compounds. The result road and212401:58:48.920 --> 01:58:53.039
laboratory tests prove that motors say six times cleaner and212501:58:53.239 --> 01:58:57.359
cylinder weare is reduced one third with Signal premium motor oil,212601:58:58.239 --> 01:59:00.479
and that holds justice through for old mode versus when212701:59:00.520 --> 01:59:03.960
you once so make your next oil change, a change212801:59:04.000 --> 01:59:07.279
to the new signal oil that you're guarantee of a212901:59:07.359 --> 01:59:13.279
sweeter running motor tiggle premium motor oil. And how back213001:59:13.319 --> 01:59:14.239
to the whisper.213101:59:20.000 --> 01:59:29.000
Ooh, it's a terrible thing, marshall.213201:59:29.119 --> 01:59:31.279
The four of you standing in the gloom of the213301:59:31.359 --> 01:59:35.800
basement glide just enough lights from the street lamp outside,213401:59:36.239 --> 01:59:39.399
filtering through the dirty window to give the whole picture213501:59:39.439 --> 01:59:41.479
an ethereal, ghostly pallor.213601:59:42.399 --> 01:59:47.159
You hear yourself talking now, slowly at first, and faster.213701:59:46.960 --> 01:59:49.960
As the hatred inside you drives the whole thing out213801:59:50.000 --> 01:59:51.119
of your brain, and in.213901:59:51.159 --> 01:59:53.720
A flood of words, you tell everything.214001:59:54.520 --> 01:59:56.960
How you fell in love with Tell them about the214101:59:57.079 --> 01:59:59.800
night you discovered you were both thinking of murder and214201:59:59.840 --> 02:00:03.640
a Melody's money, have the poison drinks, the elevator, the214302:00:03.760 --> 02:00:06.520
maddening discovery that Melody's body was gone.214402:00:07.800 --> 02:00:11.159
Helen begins to sob missus mcpherston and the Lieutenant just214502:00:11.239 --> 02:00:12.920
stand there quietly listened.214602:00:13.520 --> 02:00:18.399
Well that's all, Lieutenant, I don't know what she's done214702:00:18.439 --> 02:00:19.319
to try to implicate me.214802:00:20.199 --> 02:00:21.840
I'm kind of a yarn, she's told you.214902:00:22.000 --> 02:00:25.800
But that's the truth. No one will ever make me change.215002:00:29.439 --> 02:00:34.560
Well, what about it, officer. Amazing what you can run215102:00:34.640 --> 02:00:36.399
into in an apartmenthouse, garage.215202:00:37.439 --> 02:00:40.319
Come on, where are we going? The night man's room215302:00:40.439 --> 02:00:41.039
is down here.215402:00:41.800 --> 02:00:43.119
I like to have you talk to him.215502:00:43.800 --> 02:00:44.439
The night man.215602:00:44.800 --> 02:00:46.239
Bring the lady, missus McPherson.215702:00:47.920 --> 02:00:51.640
Won't You don't know what I tell you. They're both215802:00:51.720 --> 02:00:55.640
under arrest suspicion of murder. But the nightman what he215902:00:55.760 --> 02:00:56.119
got to do?216002:00:56.199 --> 02:01:01.800
I get easy. You'll see in a minute, oh flann, Yes,216102:01:01.880 --> 02:01:03.359
we can, and we'll see him.216202:01:03.359 --> 02:01:03.520
Now.216302:01:05.199 --> 02:01:16.199
Come on, and now, mister I don't know you know,216402:01:16.359 --> 02:01:17.239
mister Blake.216502:01:17.039 --> 02:01:21.079
Here, mister Blake, mister blakeer, please believe me.216602:01:21.159 --> 02:01:22.119
I didn't mean to do it.216702:01:22.600 --> 02:01:27.039
I tried to explain. After it happened, I got scared216802:01:27.039 --> 02:01:29.800
and I lost my head. That's why I lied about.216902:01:29.560 --> 02:01:33.800
Seeing your wife go out every time minute, Tell mister217002:01:33.920 --> 02:01:35.359
Blake exactly.217102:01:35.000 --> 02:01:35.560
What you did.217202:01:35.840 --> 02:01:39.119
I was cleaning up on the photo floor and I217302:01:39.239 --> 02:01:41.039
found Missus Blake in the elevator.217402:01:41.520 --> 02:01:43.960
She's fainted roans.217502:01:45.800 --> 02:01:48.239
I picked her up to carry back from her apartment217602:01:48.600 --> 02:01:51.520
and as I passed the stairway, I trip and fell217702:01:51.640 --> 02:01:54.439
down all the way to the landing shed the head.217802:01:55.720 --> 02:01:57.239
I know it, I killed her.217902:01:57.399 --> 02:01:58.520
I might didn't mean.218002:01:58.520 --> 02:01:59.439
Dot mit.218102:02:01.399 --> 02:02:05.000
You mean he's told you fire, isn't it?218202:02:06.039 --> 02:02:09.760
We thought he was lying, had him already to book218302:02:11.079 --> 02:02:13.079
until you cleared him? Good?218402:02:14.720 --> 02:02:19.880
H Hell, never mind, marshals, it's no use.218502:02:20.239 --> 02:02:25.960
Now, well let's go you to him. Oh, mister Novella.218602:02:26.159 --> 02:02:29.840
A word of advice, next time you fall downstairs with218702:02:29.960 --> 02:02:33.000
a body in your arms, don't lose your head and218802:02:33.159 --> 02:02:37.279
hide it in the air conditioning intake. Every apartment in218902:02:37.359 --> 02:03:00.520
the building is full of that perfume. Let that whistle219002:03:00.680 --> 02:03:03.960
be your signal for the Signal Oil program. The Whistler219102:03:04.119 --> 02:03:06.199
each Monday at nine brought to.219202:03:06.199 --> 02:03:09.239
You by the Signal Oil Company, makers of Signal Gasoline219302:03:09.279 --> 02:03:14.079
and motor oil and fine quality automotive accessories. Signal has219402:03:14.119 --> 02:03:17.640
asked me to remind you to get the most driving pleasure.219502:03:17.840 --> 02:03:22.199
Drive at sensible speed, beat courtiers, and obey traffic regulations.219602:03:23.119 --> 02:03:26.399
It may save a life, possibly your own.219702:03:40.039 --> 02:03:43.479
Featured in Tonight's story where Joseph Kerns and Dorrit Singleton.219802:03:44.439 --> 02:03:46.319
The Whistler was produced by George.219902:03:46.159 --> 02:03:49.439
W Allen, with story by Joel Malone and Harold Swanson,220002:03:49.600 --> 02:03:52.920
music by Wilbur Hats, and was transmitted to our troops220102:03:52.960 --> 02:03:57.520
overseas by the Armed Forces Radio Service. This is Marvin220202:03:57.560 --> 02:04:07.960
Miller speaking for the Signal Oil Company. Is the CBSC220302:04:08.119 --> 02:04:10.000
Columbia Broadcasting Systems.220402:04:16.119 --> 02:04:22.359
Well, I suppose that was a bit of a heart racers,220502:04:23.319 --> 02:04:28.359
but nothing a hot cup of tea can't fix. I'll220602:04:28.520 --> 02:04:31.279
freshen you up right now. Or what's that?220702:04:32.000 --> 02:04:34.119
Oh, of course I do not mind.220802:04:34.920 --> 02:04:38.319
I love being a host to you, my dear, as220902:04:38.399 --> 02:04:43.000
we sit here together, share a little bit of fear221002:04:44.399 --> 02:04:49.640
and perhaps learn something about who we are and where221102:04:49.840 --> 02:04:57.399
we're all going, whether we like it or not. No, no, no,221202:04:58.279 --> 02:05:05.399
no need for concerns. Sometimes we're just the witness of death.221302:05:07.279 --> 02:05:34.720
The CBS Radio Mystery Theater presents im E. G.221402:05:34.960 --> 02:05:35.199
Mersh.221502:05:38.319 --> 02:05:41.880
No matter how many times I hear that sound, it221602:05:42.039 --> 02:05:45.720
still sends a chill down my spine. You know, it's221702:05:45.760 --> 02:05:48.680
a police car or ambulance on the way to or221802:05:48.800 --> 02:05:53.479
from an emergency in which someone is badly hurt at221902:05:53.600 --> 02:05:57.800
Mercy Hospital. Not everyone arrives with the shriek of a siren.222002:05:59.079 --> 02:06:02.880
Most arrived quietly with the help of a relative or friend.222102:06:03.800 --> 02:06:08.279
Some come alone, hoping against hope that the grasping pain222202:06:08.439 --> 02:06:13.960
around the heart is only indigestion. Have you come under222302:06:14.000 --> 02:06:17.960
their own power, sheer will, power that keeps them conscious222402:06:18.039 --> 02:06:22.079
against all of the body's desire to give up, But hoping,222502:06:22.880 --> 02:06:26.239
as we always hope, that the bell has not yet.222602:06:26.239 --> 02:06:31.880
Told for us. Hear that esther gun tirn. How I222702:06:31.960 --> 02:06:34.840
hope it is one of our ambulances wall and to222802:06:34.960 --> 02:06:38.640
one of the one of those night emergency help.222902:06:38.840 --> 02:06:42.960
Yeah, all right, till they give me an get that223002:06:43.079 --> 02:06:43.640
dwelling god.223102:06:44.039 --> 02:06:48.199
Oh, he's heavy, unconscious, worry, h.223202:06:50.600 --> 02:06:53.840
Sorry, take him from doctor Randal. Let's get him on223302:06:53.920 --> 02:06:58.800

or give his name. I'm try know something about murder,238502:17:30.719 --> 02:17:33.840
but I had a notion from doctor Grant who reported238602:17:33.920 --> 02:17:37.479
the bullet one. But you had a pretty fair idea238702:17:37.559 --> 02:17:39.840
who he was. Well, we know that a witness and238802:17:39.879 --> 02:17:42.639
a trial do to start next week against Augie Lars238902:17:42.760 --> 02:17:46.200

eight this morning.239102:17:48.079 --> 02:17:48.799
Rian Richardson.239202:17:48.920 --> 02:17:51.600
Yeah, we've been keeping his picture out of the papers239302:17:51.680 --> 02:17:52.399
to protect him.239402:17:53.239 --> 02:17:55.079
Looks as if you didn't do a very good job239502:17:55.159 --> 02:17:55.319
of that.239602:17:55.479 --> 02:18:00.479

man you walkerated on, doctor Peterson.239802:18:04.200 --> 02:18:07.760

my life. That's the way cops life goes.240002:18:11.159 --> 02:18:13.399
Doc, No, I've got to open a new file.240102:18:14.479 --> 02:18:16.280
Who the devil is your John Doe?240202:18:16.639 --> 02:18:19.559
And we found no identification on him? Looks like that's240302:18:19.639 --> 02:18:26.399
your problem. And that's unless what less. I guess everyone240402:18:26.600 --> 02:18:30.200
can resist trying to play cops sergeant. But when this240502:18:30.399 --> 02:18:33.159
man got to the hospital, he'd been carrying that slug240602:18:33.200 --> 02:18:36.159
in him for some time. Uh. I don't see how240702:18:36.239 --> 02:18:37.719
he could have made it on his feet for so240802:18:37.879 --> 02:18:44.280
long unless oh what is it? Look down her as240902:18:44.319 --> 02:18:46.920

Is that yours? No?241202:18:53.360 --> 02:18:55.159
I hope I could do a better job of parking241302:18:55.239 --> 02:18:59.360
than that. Anyway, isn't that space reserved for doctors? Yes,241402:18:59.520 --> 02:19:02.920
but it's as right near the emergency entrance. Come on target.241502:19:03.000 --> 02:19:05.760

Yeah, it could be the man I operated on description242502:19:36.879 --> 02:19:41.079
pet eight picks some shirts in case of accident, noted242602:19:41.159 --> 02:19:43.440
by missus Joseph Wilcock.242702:19:44.479 --> 02:19:46.120
Let's go do that little thing, doctor.242802:19:47.280 --> 02:19:47.520
Do you.242902:19:49.000 --> 02:19:51.360
Know that's Wilsome? I mean, was he another witness?243002:19:51.680 --> 02:19:54.079
Never heard of them, but I give a lot for243102:19:54.159 --> 02:19:57.479
a few words with him. Richardson is still missing in243202:19:57.600 --> 02:19:59.760
my hunches. Any deal he thought he could make with243302:20:00.280 --> 02:20:04.520
Larch was one way. The odds that Richardon is already243402:20:04.559 --> 02:20:07.639
at the bottom of some convenient lake. The big question243502:20:08.040 --> 02:20:10.479
is did they intend to dumb mister Wilson there too,243602:20:11.319 --> 02:20:15.319
or was he one of them something with law? Either way,243702:20:15.520 --> 02:20:17.600
you've got to help me get something out of the guy.243802:20:18.319 --> 02:20:21.479
We had Augie Larch just where we wanted him, and243902:20:21.559 --> 02:20:23.719
I don't want to see him get off the hook.244002:20:29.479 --> 02:20:34.000
All day that take the sword shall perish by the sword.244102:20:35.559 --> 02:20:40.479
Is Joe Wilson's fate just retribution? Or is he an244202:20:40.520 --> 02:20:46.200
innocent victim? Is he another unfortunate possessor of information about244302:20:46.200 --> 02:20:50.719
the illegal operations of a ruthless criminal, or is he244402:20:50.840 --> 02:20:54.799
something else entirely, someone with no contact at all with244502:20:54.920 --> 02:20:59.280
Augie Larch, and yet who is infinitely more dangerous to him.244602:21:00.479 --> 02:21:02.040
I'll return shortly with that.244702:21:02.239 --> 02:21:09.280
Two. Need your hand to friends, to give your heart244802:21:09.520 --> 02:21:10.360

But dear your cold, your condown.245002:21:17.559 --> 02:21:18.959
Six or three or what?245102:21:19.280 --> 02:21:24.479
Please don't give me problem. I'm catching a common cold, nasing,245202:21:24.799 --> 02:21:26.799
trip congestion me.245302:21:26.959 --> 02:21:30.559
For those symptoms, you'd need six cold tablets, two every245402:21:30.600 --> 02:21:33.920
four hours, or three ounces of colds liquid one every245502:21:33.959 --> 02:21:34.879
four hours, or.245602:21:35.440 --> 02:21:36.600
Just one contact.245702:21:36.840 --> 02:21:39.559
I know the tiny time pio right.245802:21:40.079 --> 02:21:42.239
All the others are things for aches, fever, and the245902:21:42.319 --> 02:21:44.639
liquid something of course not found.246002:21:44.920 --> 02:21:47.760
Contact your cold, your choice.246102:21:47.799 --> 02:21:52.760
Sneezy trip congesture, I'll take the contawn your.246202:21:52.479 --> 02:21:55.040
Cold, you contact.246302:21:57.840 --> 02:22:01.360
Six or three or what they got only is directed.246402:22:05.239 --> 02:22:07.920
The Marine call is that are looking for a few246502:22:08.040 --> 02:22:15.319
good men to help cheap the peace. We're looking for246602:22:15.440 --> 02:22:20.079
men who understand that nobody likes to fight, but somebody246702:22:20.360 --> 02:22:21.120
has to know how.246802:22:22.760 --> 02:22:25.360
We want men who want to see their children grow246902:22:25.479 --> 02:22:27.280
up in an age of peace.247002:22:28.600 --> 02:22:30.319
Men who will do more than wish for it.247102:22:31.399 --> 02:22:32.719
Men who will work for it.247202:22:33.879 --> 02:22:36.040
Men who don't need the draft to know their the247302:22:36.159 --> 02:22:40.040
job to be done. Men who ask themselves what they247402:22:40.120 --> 02:22:44.600
can do for their country and do it. We're looking247502:22:44.680 --> 02:22:47.079
for a few good men to stand with the Marine247602:22:47.120 --> 02:22:52.920
Corps reserve. No shortcut, no compromising, no promises except one.247702:22:55.559 --> 02:22:57.920
You will be a Marine and you will.247802:22:57.760 --> 02:23:01.079
Be ready back the job. I'm a peace.247902:23:18.440 --> 02:23:22.479
At the hospital, in the intensive care unit lies the248002:23:22.600 --> 02:23:25.000
man for whom we seem to have found a name.248102:23:26.200 --> 02:23:28.879
But while the doctors monitor and fight to save the248202:23:28.959 --> 02:23:34.200
patient's life, Detective Sergeant Sam Marshall doggedly follows his job248302:23:34.319 --> 02:23:38.159
of finding out if he really is Joseph C. Wilson,248402:23:38.920 --> 02:23:42.000
and if he is who he is, what he is248502:23:42.639 --> 02:23:44.879
and what led him to being the target of a248602:23:45.000 --> 02:23:49.680
perhaps lethal bullet. As soon as the necessary police machinery248702:23:49.719 --> 02:23:53.000
has been set in motion, he goes personally to interview248802:23:53.120 --> 02:23:54.879
Joe's wife, Helen, And.248902:23:54.959 --> 02:23:57.639
I was Friday, I was just going to call you249002:23:58.040 --> 02:24:01.840
the police. I mean none. Now you tell me this249102:24:02.040 --> 02:24:05.079
is how could anyone ever shoot my Joe?249202:24:05.520 --> 02:24:09.159
The point is somebody did missus Wilsem Now I've seen249302:24:09.200 --> 02:24:10.159
a picture of him.249402:24:10.319 --> 02:24:12.000
There's no doubt it's your husband.249502:24:12.079 --> 02:24:16.639
But why Joe didn't have any enemies, but not that249602:24:16.840 --> 02:24:17.520
kind anyway.249702:24:18.120 --> 02:24:19.520
What does your husband do for a living.249802:24:19.680 --> 02:24:20.959
He's a plumber.249902:24:21.159 --> 02:24:23.520
Does he have a partner, work for a fud? No,250002:24:23.680 --> 02:24:26.479
He's just in business for himself. Does he stay out250102:24:26.559 --> 02:24:27.000
much night?250202:24:27.200 --> 02:24:30.399
Oh not Joe outside of his work to Kim's near250302:24:30.520 --> 02:24:31.159
his whole life.250402:24:31.319 --> 02:24:32.200
How many children you have?250502:24:32.639 --> 02:24:32.840
Two?250602:24:33.879 --> 02:24:36.639
Ronnie he ate and the Babysoo County T three.250702:24:37.280 --> 02:24:38.680
How come he went out last night?250802:24:39.280 --> 02:24:45.120
Well it was an emergency call. Yes, the bensions up250902:24:45.159 --> 02:24:49.719
on Longridge Road there. Well they're old customers and kind251002:24:49.760 --> 02:24:52.159
of friends. That's why he went out so late.251102:24:52.840 --> 02:24:55.680
Would there be any reason for him to come back251202:24:55.840 --> 02:24:57.559
by the old high Road?251302:24:58.200 --> 02:25:01.840
Yes, yes, as he's stubborn about something.251402:25:02.479 --> 02:25:06.440
It's a shortcut, but what's not to use it?251502:25:07.319 --> 02:25:11.159
There's so many blind curves, and it twists and now,251602:25:11.360 --> 02:25:15.000
and it's awful of poptholes, and but nobody uses it251702:25:15.159 --> 02:25:18.760
much since it's so deserted, and since you if you251802:25:18.920 --> 02:25:20.920
do meet someone coming the other way, it's.251902:25:20.799 --> 02:25:26.399
So easy to have an action. I was only afraid252002:25:27.799 --> 02:25:28.959
that is had one.252102:25:31.360 --> 02:25:33.280
But I want to go to my husband.252202:25:33.399 --> 02:25:34.479
I want to talk to him.252302:25:40.879 --> 02:25:46.680
Mining I'm doctor Peterson, I'm I doing doc thanks to252402:25:46.760 --> 02:25:48.239
a good strong constitution.252502:25:48.520 --> 02:25:50.879
Five you got any pain?252602:25:52.959 --> 02:25:55.200
Some hell.252702:25:58.399 --> 02:26:00.280
Yeh h.252802:26:02.799 --> 02:26:06.760
That's all any of us knows. Yet there here's a252902:26:06.840 --> 02:26:11.120
detective police down in my office who look like, oh,253002:26:12.959 --> 02:26:17.000
I want to see my wife first, she's right outside.253102:26:17.559 --> 02:26:19.520
Now you can get missus Wilson and.253202:26:21.559 --> 02:26:23.600
Yes Oka.253302:26:25.639 --> 02:26:27.200
Say it alone for a minute.253402:26:30.719 --> 02:26:33.520
If you promise not to over excite yourself. I don't253502:26:33.559 --> 02:26:36.479
want to scare you. You're a long way from being253602:26:36.520 --> 02:26:38.920
out of the worlds yet, I promise.253702:26:43.760 --> 02:26:49.719
Oh baby, you all like Honey told me, I can253802:26:49.840 --> 02:26:53.639
eat anything, even though let's well, I'll give you two253902:26:53.680 --> 02:26:55.079
a moment, a long colonna.254002:26:57.840 --> 02:26:58.040
You know.254102:27:01.120 --> 02:27:01.600
They gone?254202:27:03.000 --> 02:27:04.440
Did you step outside the door?254302:27:06.120 --> 02:27:14.680
What did you need, didn't you. I want to know why.254402:27:15.159 --> 02:27:19.239
I can tell you, but I'm not so sure.254502:27:19.799 --> 02:27:20.040
I'm not.254602:27:21.799 --> 02:27:24.440
Oh, why did I take that short gun after all254702:27:24.520 --> 02:27:31.120
the time you asked me not to, Helen, I think254802:27:31.200 --> 02:27:38.239
I saw a guy merchant and I don't want to254902:27:38.280 --> 02:27:42.760
start throwing any waiter on doctor. But if there's any possibility.255002:27:42.200 --> 02:27:44.559
Your patient in there may die, I need a statement255102:27:45.000 --> 02:27:48.639
and some information from him. I uh, I don't know255202:27:48.719 --> 02:27:50.799
if I can permit that's out. And his wife was255302:27:50.879 --> 02:27:53.879
allowed to see him this morning, only for a little while,255402:27:53.959 --> 02:27:56.600
and only if she didn't allow him to get over excited.255502:27:56.680 --> 02:27:58.360
I promised to take it easy.255602:27:58.440 --> 02:27:58.799
It's just.255702:28:00.520 --> 02:28:04.159
Well, Roy Richardson is still missing. Without him, we have255802:28:04.360 --> 02:28:06.000
no case against Augie Large.255902:28:07.159 --> 02:28:11.000
Very well, then, for a few minutes, I'm going to256002:28:11.040 --> 02:28:13.000
be in there to make sure you don't upset him.256102:28:13.280 --> 02:28:14.000
Be my guest.256202:28:14.879 --> 02:28:18.239
Why should I upset him if he's got nothing to hide?256302:28:23.200 --> 02:28:26.200
Now, this is Detective Sergeant Marshall Joe. He wants to256402:28:26.239 --> 02:28:30.680
ask you a few questions or the sergeant feeling better, well,256502:28:30.920 --> 02:28:35.760
kind of weak like go ahead, and you're a plumber,256602:28:35.840 --> 02:28:39.360
mister Wilson, And last night you were called on an256702:28:39.399 --> 02:28:44.879
emergency job late after dinner. That's right to Benson's good customers,256802:28:44.959 --> 02:28:47.959
good friend's mine, and say, sprung the leak in the256902:28:48.000 --> 02:28:51.440
main water valve coming under the house, and quite a257002:28:51.520 --> 02:28:51.840
time of.257102:28:51.920 --> 02:28:53.879
It before I could get a new washer in there.257202:28:54.200 --> 02:28:57.360
And afterwards you came home by the old high road.257302:28:57.760 --> 02:28:58.360
That's right.257402:28:59.280 --> 02:29:02.120
Saves about three miles over going around a new road.257502:29:02.440 --> 02:29:06.639
At what time was this, mister Wilson, Oh, eleven maybe257602:29:06.760 --> 02:29:10.159
quarter twelve? And what time did you leave to go257702:29:10.440 --> 02:29:14.799
to the benches around seven point thirty, got there maybe257802:29:14.840 --> 02:29:15.920
about eight mm hm.257902:29:16.760 --> 02:29:20.760
Three hours to put in a washing. Oh well, like258002:29:20.879 --> 02:29:23.719
I say, I had a tough time of it, and258102:29:23.879 --> 02:29:27.559
the benches are old friends. I stuck around talking, had258202:29:27.600 --> 02:29:30.959
a beer or so, and it was coming back on258302:29:31.040 --> 02:29:36.559
the old high road. You were shot, that's right. How well, see,258402:29:37.920 --> 02:29:40.120
I was coming around a sharp bend where the road258502:29:40.280 --> 02:29:43.559
kind of dips down in a hollow, and I hear258602:29:43.639 --> 02:29:46.879
what sounds like a blowout, So I hit the brakes258702:29:47.159 --> 02:29:50.159
slow down as I come around the bend, and I258802:29:50.280 --> 02:29:54.680
see in my headlights this car parked off the road258902:29:54.799 --> 02:29:58.719
by the lake facing me with the headlights off.259002:29:59.120 --> 02:30:01.440
The car was off the road all.259102:30:01.399 --> 02:30:05.959
Half on the shoulder and right decided there was two259202:30:06.040 --> 02:30:10.760
other guys looked in someone like he was hurt. He259302:30:10.920 --> 02:30:13.319
stopped and I got out and I yelled, could I help?259402:30:15.280 --> 02:30:19.559
And before I knew it, one of them pulled a259502:30:19.719 --> 02:30:21.879
gun and took a shot at me and hit you.259602:30:23.000 --> 02:30:23.959
And so why I'm here?259702:30:25.520 --> 02:30:26.079
What did you do?259802:30:26.239 --> 02:30:26.399
Then?259902:30:27.000 --> 02:30:27.680
What would you do?260002:30:28.879 --> 02:30:31.920
I dived from my car and got to left the260102:30:32.000 --> 02:30:34.440
engine running, and I took off right past them like260202:30:34.520 --> 02:30:36.639
a I'm not going to be up the stairs.260302:30:37.280 --> 02:30:40.360
They shoot at you again, serge, And I don't know.260402:30:41.319 --> 02:30:43.959
All I knew was I was hurt and heading for260502:30:44.079 --> 02:30:48.440
the hospital. Another thing that thank God for they hadn't260602:30:48.479 --> 02:30:50.959
pulled off the road. I'd never got past them.260702:30:52.120 --> 02:30:52.719
Hey, you know.260802:30:54.200 --> 02:31:00.280

if it was, or you must have seen these men261302:31:18.239 --> 02:31:20.840
in your headlights? Could you identify any of.261402:31:20.840 --> 02:31:22.760
Them for us? Oh?261502:31:24.159 --> 02:31:27.319
I don't know, if if you'd be willing to try,261602:31:27.399 --> 02:31:30.799
and well, I guess sure, sure, I.261702:31:32.639 --> 02:31:35.799
Mean, I am sorry, but I'll have to stop you.261802:31:35.959 --> 02:31:39.079
That's quite enough for a Now, okay, he're the doctor,261902:31:39.840 --> 02:31:42.120
but I'm gonna have to talk to him again. Just262002:31:42.239 --> 02:31:45.280
so long has it Mormon dangered his life? Oh, don't262102:31:45.360 --> 02:31:48.520
worry about that. His life is just as important to262202:31:48.680 --> 02:31:52.000
me as it is to you, doctor. From here on in,262302:31:53.319 --> 02:31:56.040
I'm gonna do everything I can to protect it.262402:32:01.639 --> 02:32:05.920
I haven't told the kids about your Joe, because all262502:32:06.040 --> 02:32:09.360
day I've been doing a lot of thinking what.262602:32:09.559 --> 02:32:10.520
Kind of thin can help?262702:32:11.079 --> 02:32:13.920
You? Got yourself mixed up with some real bad, no262802:32:14.120 --> 02:32:14.799
good trash.262902:32:15.879 --> 02:32:19.079
Don't you think I know that you left me with263002:32:19.200 --> 02:32:21.040
a big enough message to remind me.263102:32:21.360 --> 02:32:25.360
Their messages from the other side too. You know there's263202:32:25.399 --> 02:32:29.920
a policeman on guard outside your door. Why, Joe Darling,263302:32:30.040 --> 02:32:31.520
those men are.263402:32:31.479 --> 02:32:35.559
The one who shot you and the other one. Could263502:32:35.639 --> 02:32:37.799
you recognize them if you saw them again?263602:32:39.879 --> 02:32:44.799
I'm still mixed up, Like sometimes, I tell myself, I'm263702:32:44.879 --> 02:32:48.760
not one hundred percent sure I could, and then I263802:32:48.879 --> 02:32:52.840
shut my eyes and I know I could think them263902:32:52.879 --> 02:32:58.760
out of that Jampag ballpark. But if I really had264002:32:58.840 --> 02:33:04.440
to tell the truth, I think maybe the reason is264102:33:06.399 --> 02:33:07.959
I'm just playing scared.264202:33:08.079 --> 02:33:11.319
Joe Darning, don't you see that just the way I feel.264302:33:12.440 --> 02:33:15.399
I don't want you to identify those men, even if264402:33:15.479 --> 02:33:19.680
you could. They've gone enough you already. I don't want264502:33:19.719 --> 02:33:22.000
you to take any chances they'll do anymore.264602:33:22.639 --> 02:33:27.040
Helen, I gotta do what's right.264702:33:27.440 --> 02:33:31.120
Why you didn't ask to get tangled up and the264802:33:31.559 --> 02:33:35.239
filth and crime. You want all of us to creep264902:33:35.280 --> 02:33:37.159
around scared to death from here on in if you265002:33:37.280 --> 02:33:38.239
identify these.265102:33:38.120 --> 02:33:45.280
Men, Ronnie, Sue, Carol me what happened to you already?265202:33:45.840 --> 02:33:52.680
But Helen, it's like I'm I'm a citizen. If I've265302:33:52.760 --> 02:33:59.399
got rights, I got duties too. Joe, promise me you'll265402:33:59.520 --> 02:34:03.520
stay out. But the only way all of it can265502:34:03.600 --> 02:34:05.319
be sure will be safe.265602:34:05.360 --> 02:34:06.159
Especially you.265702:34:06.920 --> 02:34:16.440
And you're sure, Sargeant Marshall positive identification Doctor, you haven't265802:34:16.440 --> 02:34:19.840
been in the water that long. After talking to mister Wilson,265902:34:19.920 --> 02:34:22.200
we located the spot where the shooting took place.266002:34:22.360 --> 02:34:24.639
We had a crew with this and they brought up Richison.266102:34:24.760 --> 02:34:27.799
The third time down blewet threw his head.266202:34:28.440 --> 02:34:31.559
So there goes your witness on the Evasion of Taxes trial.266302:34:31.840 --> 02:34:34.520
Small potatoes. Now we can get them on a bigger266402:34:34.639 --> 02:34:40.680
rap murder. If you're patient, mister Wilson comes through. Can266502:34:40.719 --> 02:34:41.319
I see him now?266602:34:47.959 --> 02:34:50.079
I'm sorry to have to break in on your visit,266702:34:50.120 --> 02:34:53.239
Missus Wilson, but Sergeant Grant has to talk to your husband.266802:34:53.879 --> 02:34:56.879
More questions, and not so much this time. I had266902:34:56.920 --> 02:34:59.399
a copy of the transcript you made to me this morning,267002:34:59.520 --> 02:35:03.280
typed up. I'd like to get it signed. I'm not267102:35:03.399 --> 02:35:06.399
gonna look at your pictures. Why not, for the same267202:35:06.479 --> 02:35:10.120
reason I won't sign a statement. I can't identify the267302:35:10.239 --> 02:35:13.559
men he indicated you might well, I'm not sure anymore.267402:35:13.840 --> 02:35:16.000
He'd be in terrible danger if he could.267502:35:16.000 --> 02:35:19.559
Missus Wilson. Every precaution is being taken for your husband's safety.267602:35:19.639 --> 02:35:22.120
You saw the police guard outside the door. What about267702:35:22.159 --> 02:35:24.399
my wife and children? I'm trying to cover your house too.267802:35:24.680 --> 02:35:27.360
With killers like these, there's no protection.267902:35:27.840 --> 02:35:28.639
What else could I do?268002:35:30.559 --> 02:35:34.239
Could I come up with an idea and welcome Well,268102:35:34.360 --> 02:35:37.040
it's the need of of adage, which solves all problems.268202:35:38.360 --> 02:35:39.920
Dead man tell no tales.268302:35:40.799 --> 02:35:41.719
I don't understand.268402:35:42.159 --> 02:35:45.440
Look, suppose everyone thought your husband had died from the268502:35:45.520 --> 02:35:48.559
bullet or did those gunsels have to worry about?268602:35:48.600 --> 02:35:52.200
Then you released that story to the press. I'll substantiated268702:35:52.680 --> 02:35:53.760
a big little white lie.268802:35:53.879 --> 02:35:56.399
Doctor. Would you be willing to look at the pictures then,268902:35:56.479 --> 02:36:01.000
mister Wilson and make an identification if you find.269002:36:00.799 --> 02:36:02.360
One or two?269102:36:04.239 --> 02:36:08.079
Helen, Joe, I don't know what to say.269202:36:08.639 --> 02:36:11.879
If everyone is willing to put themselves out like that,269302:36:13.479 --> 02:36:14.959
how can we let them down?269402:36:22.920 --> 02:36:27.639
Good morning, Joe. Well, how's it going today? Well?269502:36:27.719 --> 02:36:30.959
I ready to take on Muhammad Ali, but I'm getting there.269602:36:31.719 --> 02:36:33.200
Well, this may give you a list.269702:36:33.719 --> 02:36:41.159
The Morning Paper page one shooting victim succumbs Joseph Wilson,269802:36:41.360 --> 02:36:45.239
aged thirty seven, died at Mercy Hospital last night as269902:36:45.280 --> 02:36:48.719
the result of a mysterious bullet wound inflicted.270002:36:48.280 --> 02:36:50.840
While he was driving along the Old high Road.270102:36:52.120 --> 02:36:55.879
Wilson, a plumber by trade, leaves a wife, Helen, and270202:36:56.000 --> 02:36:58.440
two children, ages eight and three.270302:36:59.159 --> 02:37:01.120
Let me see that, well, you have the right.270402:37:02.120 --> 02:37:05.680
Not many men get to see their own obituary. Sure270502:37:05.760 --> 02:37:07.200
gives a matter of funny feeling.270602:37:07.280 --> 02:37:07.840
How bad.270702:37:09.280 --> 02:37:16.239
The victims will said, he will be buried in Clandon Cemetery.270802:37:18.239 --> 02:37:20.600
That policeman sure did it up thoroughly, didn't they.270902:37:20.920 --> 02:37:22.799
Well, they could cares to release a story that you271002:37:22.920 --> 02:37:24.799
died without being nice enough to bury you.271102:37:26.000 --> 02:37:28.879
At least now the killers are off your trail.271202:37:33.479 --> 02:37:37.879
Oh lookie, johnny A you seen the papers this morning?271302:37:39.120 --> 02:37:41.479
Huh good nows nothing, forget it.271402:37:41.559 --> 02:37:43.200
I'm telling you the guy ain't bad.271502:37:45.000 --> 02:37:47.479
About a half hour ago I seen his wife sticking271602:37:47.559 --> 02:37:48.319
to the hospital.271702:37:49.159 --> 02:37:49.920
Just to make sure.271802:37:50.559 --> 02:37:52.479
I took a chance and went by his room at271902:37:52.520 --> 02:37:55.760
the hospital just a bit of the goal. There's still272002:37:55.920 --> 02:38:00.159
a top outside the door. You don't need funs to272102:38:00.319 --> 02:38:01.360
god a dead man.272202:38:07.040 --> 02:38:10.760
So it appears that our innocent bystander is still in272302:38:10.879 --> 02:38:16.879
jeopardy as a brilliantly performed operation saved his life, only272402:38:17.000 --> 02:38:21.079
to have it threatened once again. I returned shortly with272502:38:21.200 --> 02:38:23.559
the answer to that, and at three.272602:38:27.680 --> 02:38:32.440

After all, yeah, peno steen, lack of laver collar, inside jokey,272802:38:43.200 --> 02:38:45.559
inside jokey, under all.272902:38:46.159 --> 02:38:48.719

plus two road machine. Its streamline knows.273302:38:59.360 --> 02:39:03.600
Thrust, wake ahead, dispirited V six engines supplying the motion273402:39:04.239 --> 02:39:08.360
all of a sudden, living free becomes second natured skyhawk.273502:39:09.040 --> 02:39:14.479
Catch one at your viewing dealer now in di Dokree.273602:39:15.639 --> 02:39:18.719
Ind Dokria, all live.273702:39:18.600 --> 02:39:21.959
In live in free.273802:39:23.680 --> 02:39:29.920
Little Hi malvelayers here with an interesting fact about water,273902:39:30.479 --> 02:39:33.719
brought to you by your local Colligan man. Did you274002:39:33.840 --> 02:39:37.479
know that in the United States there's almost twenty times274102:39:37.520 --> 02:39:39.840
as much water in the ground as there is water274202:39:40.120 --> 02:39:44.719
on the surface. For example, Florida alone has more underground274302:39:44.840 --> 02:39:48.120
water than all the water in the Great Lakes combined.274402:39:48.959 --> 02:39:52.440
And speaking of the Great Lakes, there's a popular misconception274502:39:52.559 --> 02:39:56.280
that Lake Michigan water is soft. However, according to a274602:39:56.360 --> 02:40:00.719
government study, to be classified as soft, water must contain274702:40:01.159 --> 02:40:04.559
less than three and a half grains of hardness per gallon,274802:40:05.159 --> 02:40:08.360
and Lake Michigan water contains about eight grains of hardness274902:40:08.440 --> 02:40:12.840
per gallon. So call your local Collagan man ask him275002:40:12.840 --> 02:40:15.959
to show you the difference that hardness makes whether you275102:40:16.040 --> 02:40:18.959
have Lake Michigan water or other than Lake Michigan water.275202:40:19.319 --> 02:40:23.000
You'll be astounded. There's no cost or obligation. So call275302:40:23.079 --> 02:40:26.360
your Cullagan man today. You'll find him underwater in the275402:40:26.479 --> 02:40:27.200
yellow pages.275502:40:29.520 --> 02:40:33.840
This is WBBM Chicago News Radio, seventy eight. Time is275602:40:33.879 --> 02:40:36.000
eleven oh six. It's ten above the midway.275702:40:40.680 --> 02:40:43.520
It was Robert Burns, the Scottish poet who penned the275802:40:43.600 --> 02:40:48.000
lines the best laid Schemes of Mice and Men gang275902:40:48.079 --> 02:40:52.040
Off de Glay. Certainly, all the plans to protect Joe276002:40:52.079 --> 02:40:55.879
Wilson by announcing his apparent death have been negated by276102:40:55.920 --> 02:40:59.920
his wife's thoughtless and untimely visit and the fifth color276202:41:00.120 --> 02:41:04.840
list in the hospital. Unfortunately, the doctors and the police276302:41:05.360 --> 02:41:09.879
are unaware of this. Still, what can men, even as276402:41:09.959 --> 02:41:13.760
desperate as Augie LARTs, do to stop Joe from identifying them?276502:41:13.840 --> 02:41:13.959
Now?276602:41:14.840 --> 02:41:15.799
It ain't good enough?276702:41:15.920 --> 02:41:16.319
Johnny?276802:41:16.559 --> 02:41:17.159
What Arcky?276902:41:17.760 --> 02:41:18.680
What else can I do?277002:41:20.239 --> 02:41:20.479
I do?277102:41:20.520 --> 02:41:20.719
You know?277202:41:22.319 --> 02:41:24.280
Well, fool, I was to be with you when we277302:41:24.360 --> 02:41:26.959
were up Douc richardson the way it was.277402:41:27.079 --> 02:41:29.000
We didn't have time to handle it any other way.277502:41:30.239 --> 02:41:32.920
All I know is this isn't just beating a little277602:41:32.959 --> 02:41:34.079
income tax evasion.277702:41:34.920 --> 02:41:36.959
My neck is on the line for the big m277802:41:37.760 --> 02:41:41.159
So fine hockey. Well that's what I'm coming on. I'm277902:41:41.239 --> 02:41:45.239
sending your guests between years. You better figure out some278002:41:45.399 --> 02:41:47.200
way to make that over it come true.278102:41:48.680 --> 02:41:53.520
Okay, boss, what don't you give Guss a gun? I'll278202:41:53.639 --> 02:41:55.040
handle that end if we need it.278302:41:55.319 --> 02:41:56.799
Don't worry, it's muscle.278402:41:56.840 --> 02:41:57.559
I'm sending you.278502:41:58.360 --> 02:41:59.280
I wouldn't trust.278602:41:59.120 --> 02:42:03.000
Him with a gun either, But don't forget. I don't278702:42:03.079 --> 02:42:07.239
care how you do it, but I want that witness dead.278802:42:08.120 --> 02:42:12.079
I guess said, that's my neck online too, walkie. Why278902:42:12.159 --> 02:42:15.280
are that's just what he'll be before the days now?279002:42:20.200 --> 02:42:22.440
And missus Wilson is up with him now too.279102:42:22.719 --> 02:42:22.799
I.279202:42:24.280 --> 02:42:29.120
Guess so I've been on rounds after all our arrangements.279302:42:29.200 --> 02:42:30.680
Why did you let her go up there?279402:42:30.920 --> 02:42:34.000
She was already in the hospital and on his floor279502:42:34.079 --> 02:42:36.079
before I bumped into her by accident.279602:42:36.799 --> 02:42:38.040
I tried to argue her.279702:42:37.959 --> 02:42:40.559
Out of the doctor, but she insisted on seeing him.279802:42:40.639 --> 02:42:43.159
Yes, and that those mobsters are having the hospital watched.279902:42:43.200 --> 02:42:46.319
The whole cover scheme maybe out the window by now. Well,280002:42:46.799 --> 02:42:49.559
even if he was dead, she had a right to280102:42:49.639 --> 02:42:51.200
come and make arrangement for his dual.280202:42:51.600 --> 02:42:56.399
Yes, I suppose, but when Sergeant Marshall turns up, he'll280302:42:56.479 --> 02:42:58.520
probably bore a gasket.280402:43:00.040 --> 02:43:00.520
The damage.280502:43:00.520 --> 02:43:02.319
If an, he's done already, so there's no use O280602:43:02.440 --> 02:43:05.799
getting excited about it. One thing we can do far280702:43:07.079 --> 02:43:09.959
smuggle her out of here the best way possible.280802:43:09.600 --> 02:43:11.319
Without a chance of her being seen.280902:43:13.520 --> 02:43:17.239
I have four throwness is this well, this is doctor Peterson,281002:43:18.799 --> 02:43:23.479

I'll be right down.281202:43:27.239 --> 02:43:30.920
That's a sergeant. He's downstairs and look till me. I'll281302:43:30.959 --> 02:43:32.680
go down and delay him a little. We can't wait281402:43:32.760 --> 02:43:35.159
for Doc. You go along to the room and get281502:43:35.319 --> 02:43:37.920
missus Wilson out of there. I don't care how you281602:43:38.079 --> 02:43:41.319
do it, but if possible without being recognized.281702:43:45.360 --> 02:43:49.159
I don't care how much how long you igal with me.281802:43:50.479 --> 02:43:53.879
I can change my mind. So why should you risk281902:43:54.000 --> 02:43:54.879
You're not alone?282002:43:57.280 --> 02:43:58.159
I know you love me.282102:44:00.079 --> 02:44:01.840
You should have gone on out to date and with282202:44:01.959 --> 02:44:05.040
the kids, like we plan. He took an awful chance282302:44:05.120 --> 02:44:09.319
coming here today when I'm supposed to be I know, but.282402:44:09.440 --> 02:44:12.239
I told you I sent the kids off last night282502:44:12.520 --> 02:44:14.239
and your mom and father were going to need them.282602:44:15.280 --> 02:44:16.479
I couldn't go, Joe.282702:44:17.520 --> 02:44:19.760
I late a week, all night worrying about the chance282802:44:19.840 --> 02:44:23.000
you're taking, and I had to come to ask you.282902:44:23.360 --> 02:44:24.280
Not to take it.283002:44:25.360 --> 02:44:28.280
Maybe I'm a citizen, it's my duty.283102:44:28.639 --> 02:44:31.319
I'm sorry to break in on you, but Sergeant Marshall283202:44:31.399 --> 02:44:34.280
is downstairs and on the way up. Missus Wilson, I283302:44:34.520 --> 02:44:36.559
think you'd better get out of here.283402:44:37.239 --> 02:44:40.000
Helen, listen to the doctor and me.283502:44:41.040 --> 02:44:41.239
You go.283602:44:42.959 --> 02:44:44.559
Let me do what I have to, Joe.283702:44:44.760 --> 02:44:49.360
If I'm going to live, I have to live with myself,283802:44:50.719 --> 02:44:52.920
and there's only one way I guess.283902:44:52.799 --> 02:44:53.520
I can do that.284002:45:00.879 --> 02:45:02.520
I'm not going to try to pretend I'm not sorry284102:45:02.600 --> 02:45:04.760
the wife came here, but there's no sense in worrying284202:45:04.799 --> 02:45:08.319
over spoked milk, Doctor peters in. So we get a284302:45:08.399 --> 02:45:12.360
positive identification on who murdered Roy Richardson. The sooner Joe284402:45:12.399 --> 02:45:13.959
Wilson will be out of danger.284502:45:14.200 --> 02:45:15.520
From outside the threats.284602:45:15.600 --> 02:45:19.120
Perhaps the man is still fighting for his life the284702:45:19.239 --> 02:45:21.079
damage that bulleted to him inside.284802:45:22.159 --> 02:45:25.239
So take it as easy on him as you can,284902:45:25.600 --> 02:45:26.239
cop sir.285002:45:26.239 --> 02:45:26.920
Human doc.285102:45:27.319 --> 02:45:29.959
And that's all right, officer, Just relax, but keep your285202:45:30.000 --> 02:45:30.559
wits about you.285302:45:31.319 --> 02:45:33.120
Can we go in, doctor joh.285402:45:35.079 --> 02:45:40.239
Wow, afternoon, mister Wilson. This shouldn't hurt too much. I've285502:45:40.879 --> 02:45:43.600
brought some pictures so it wouldn't be too heavy. I285602:45:43.719 --> 02:45:45.639
have the computer select them so you didn't have to285702:45:45.760 --> 02:45:47.879
wade through the whole mug file for.285802:45:47.920 --> 02:45:48.959
Example this year.285902:45:49.040 --> 02:45:51.799
First one, do you recognize him as one of the286002:45:51.879 --> 02:45:54.440
men you saw killing Lawyer Richardson's body the night of286102:45:54.479 --> 02:45:54.840
the murder?286202:45:55.799 --> 02:46:00.319
Why that's I've seen his picture in the newspaper. Yeah,286302:46:00.360 --> 02:46:01.360
he's a prominent man.286402:46:02.600 --> 02:46:03.280
Was he one of them?286502:46:05.239 --> 02:46:09.120
I like to get something straight first, I asked, if286602:46:09.120 --> 02:46:14.280
I identify the guys, what happens? Oh, we pick them286702:46:14.360 --> 02:46:17.879
up and arrest them, and I'm out of it. Well286802:46:18.200 --> 02:46:21.879
not exactly. Why not because your statement will not be286902:46:21.959 --> 02:46:24.799
admissible in court unless you're there to be questioned not287002:46:24.879 --> 02:46:27.600
only by the state but counsel for the defense new287102:46:27.719 --> 02:46:32.760
process of law. I see, why do you ask? I'll287202:46:32.799 --> 02:46:36.680
get that because I'm afraid if my wife will feel287302:46:36.719 --> 02:46:38.799
I sold her and the children down the river.287402:46:39.239 --> 02:46:40.959
It's the other way.287502:46:41.280 --> 02:46:46.440
You're buying her, your children, and yourself freedom from fear.287602:46:47.639 --> 02:46:48.200
I'm sorry.287702:46:48.239 --> 02:46:52.040
There's some flowers for Joe's special receipt requestion.287802:46:53.159 --> 02:47:02.559

Room for twelve best wishes Joe from your watchful friends.288102:47:12.319 --> 02:47:13.760
Both here and in.288202:47:15.479 --> 02:47:15.799
Dayton.288302:47:15.959 --> 02:47:21.120
That's right, Dayton, where I sent my kids to be safe.288402:47:21.200 --> 02:47:24.040

Now wait a minute, not even a second, you start writing.288902:47:37.559 --> 02:47:41.319
It was too dark on the Old Eye road for289002:47:41.479 --> 02:47:43.879

I'm afraid I can.295202:51:23.479 --> 02:51:23.799
Doctor.295302:51:25.040 --> 02:51:26.879

It looks like he has a tourist pylorum and I'm295502:51:33.000 --> 02:51:37.079

May be involved. The constrictor and you know how dangerous295702:51:40.559 --> 02:51:40.959

There may even be a break involved. I want to296002:51:44.639 --> 02:51:49.319
stop that if it's possible. Okay, doctor, that's your problem.296102:51:49.799 --> 02:51:50.799
You'll be able to handle it.296202:51:52.120 --> 02:51:53.719

Just the elevator. Yes, I guess this is it.298402:53:05.200 --> 02:53:05.280

positive in your back.299502:53:32.239 --> 02:53:36.120
Just don't move or you gus. I got three guys299602:53:36.200 --> 02:53:38.040

I want you? Oh but oh didn't I chat? Get lost,299902:53:54.760 --> 02:53:55.440
Scott Prety.300002:53:55.559 --> 02:53:56.159
Don't worry.300102:53:56.799 --> 02:54:01.399
Joe Wilson will be able to identify him. Now how300202:54:01.520 --> 02:54:03.799
come he nailed me?300302:54:04.159 --> 02:54:07.760
Oh? You shouldn't fool around with doctors, Johnny ain't male300402:54:07.959 --> 02:54:08.719
or female.300502:54:09.200 --> 02:54:10.639
You're just not smart enough.300602:54:10.840 --> 02:54:14.360
What do you what do you mean? Well, you tell him.300702:54:14.399 --> 02:54:18.319
Doctor gust was supposed to have a sprained ankle, and300802:54:18.440 --> 02:54:20.479
doctor Peterson asked me, what was the matter with him?300902:54:20.520 --> 02:54:25.600
Remember what I told him? So doublet? I said he301002:54:25.680 --> 02:54:27.479
had an erectus pailo him.301102:54:28.920 --> 02:54:32.479
Well, certainly it's a very small muscle at the base301202:54:32.600 --> 02:54:41.440
of the hair follicles the old co Yeah, nothing ankle,301302:54:42.040 --> 02:54:44.399
A muscle the base of each hair in your head.301402:54:45.280 --> 02:54:48.959
It's enough to make your hair stand on end, isn't it,301502:54:49.079 --> 02:54:49.799
Johnny Angel.301602:54:56.040 --> 02:54:59.840
With the help of Joe Wilson's identification, Augie Larch and301702:55:00.040 --> 02:55:04.639
Johnny Angel were charged with criminal homicide and held without bailed.301802:55:05.360 --> 02:55:10.559
Later both were convicted and sentenced to maximum terms. Joe301902:55:10.680 --> 02:55:14.559
recovered successfully, and he and Helen subsequently had two more children.302002:55:15.440 --> 02:55:18.719
It's really another story with a happy ending, and more302102:55:18.840 --> 02:55:23.079
or less except for one thing. In the state where302202:55:23.120 --> 02:55:27.120
our story took place, murder in the first degree is302302:55:27.440 --> 02:55:34.360
once again the death penalty. I'll be back shortly. Some302402:55:34.559 --> 02:55:37.600
people think we played king pong all day. They're wrong.302502:55:38.040 --> 02:55:41.559
The USO isn't all fun and games today. The USO302602:55:41.760 --> 02:55:44.719
has millions of problems like this one in Germany.302702:55:45.079 --> 02:55:47.879
My family's going crazy living in a tiny apartment.302802:55:48.159 --> 02:55:49.079
Where can we live?302902:55:49.520 --> 02:55:53.600
Today's USO has millions of problems like this one in Asia,303002:55:53.879 --> 02:55:54.920
unhooked on drugs.303102:55:55.079 --> 02:55:58.200
Where can I get help? Or this problem in Athens?303202:55:58.600 --> 02:56:01.479
Our marriage is break now can you help?303302:56:02.120 --> 02:56:05.959
Today's USO has little time for ping pong. We've got303402:56:06.120 --> 02:56:09.239
serious work to do. We've got lots of new problems303502:56:09.319 --> 02:56:11.959
here and overseas. The problems are big.303602:56:12.520 --> 02:56:12.920
How big?303702:56:13.280 --> 02:56:16.639
Well, if someone asks you who needs the USO, tell303802:56:16.719 --> 02:56:23.959
them over five million American military personnel and their families303902:56:24.120 --> 02:56:27.959
need today's USO. And because we get no government funds,304002:56:28.239 --> 02:56:32.200
we need all your support. Please give to USO through304102:56:32.280 --> 02:56:35.200
the United Way or local USO campaign.304202:56:46.520 --> 02:56:50.040
The one thing that remained strongest in Joe Wilson's mind304302:56:50.479 --> 02:56:53.280
after the horror and pain of his experience had faded,304402:56:54.200 --> 02:56:57.600
was the decision he had come to finally to make304502:56:57.680 --> 02:56:59.360
the identification.304602:57:00.120 --> 02:57:01.440
Or whatever satisfaction the.304702:57:01.479 --> 02:57:04.000
Criminals attempt to stop him may have given them on304802:57:04.040 --> 02:57:06.799
the way to the grave. For the rest of his life,304902:57:07.399 --> 02:57:10.600
Joe had a far better one. He could face himself305002:57:10.680 --> 02:57:13.719
every morning in the mirror and be sure more than305102:57:13.799 --> 02:57:17.239
most of us that he was a man and a305202:57:17.319 --> 02:57:22.159
good one. Our cast included Joan Shay, Ken Harvey, Sam Gray,305302:57:22.360 --> 02:57:25.920
and Ian Martin. The entire production was under the direction305402:57:26.120 --> 02:57:26.920
of Hyman Brown.305502:57:31.840 --> 02:57:40.879
My dear, you seem a bit pique. Are you tired?305602:57:42.079 --> 02:57:46.360
The hour is getting late, but we have quite a305702:57:46.479 --> 02:57:54.520
way still to go. What's that? Oh, well, that's totally understandable.305802:57:55.680 --> 02:57:59.799
I have confidence you'll be able to make it through305902:58:00.120 --> 02:58:07.440
the night with minimal issues. And if not, well, let's306002:58:07.520 --> 02:58:13.120
not think about that. Let's stay positive, keep our minds306102:58:13.280 --> 02:58:17.920
on the good or what's that, Oh, don't worry about me,306202:58:18.280 --> 02:58:22.639
My dear. The dead sleep lightly.306302:58:29.920 --> 02:58:30.440

far from New York.308203:00:00.440 --> 03:00:06.000
Meadowvale Cemetery a dim gray morning in early April, when308303:00:06.120 --> 03:00:10.360
rain forms a mist across leafless trees and white graves stores.308403:00:11.719 --> 03:00:15.319
You see over there a group of silk hatted gentlemen,308503:00:15.600 --> 03:00:19.440
each with his protecting umbrella, gathered around an open grave.308603:00:20.520 --> 03:00:24.760
You see the clay soil specially done. You can hear308703:00:24.879 --> 03:00:28.959
perhaps the creaking of support, and the coffin is lowered308803:00:29.079 --> 03:00:34.000
into its ever lasting house, and the droning voice of308903:00:34.120 --> 03:00:36.680
a person, and.309003:00:36.840 --> 03:00:39.639
The resorection, and the life with the lord.309103:00:40.719 --> 03:00:44.959

It's not alive. It's not alive. Ye, It might seem309603:01:06.879 --> 03:01:11.600
a long distance in the Cosmopolite Club in Gramercy Park309703:01:11.680 --> 03:01:14.719
on the following evening, when that same well fed man,309803:01:15.479 --> 03:01:18.639
and hard and unemotional as a diamond pin in his tie,309903:01:19.360 --> 03:01:19.920
hurries up.310003:01:19.879 --> 03:01:24.799
The steps into the club. Man, Yes, mister Templeton, tell me, well,310103:01:25.200 --> 03:01:25.959

Just tell me one other things. When I came into311003:01:42.959 --> 03:01:44.959
the club, there's anybody following me?311103:01:45.639 --> 03:01:48.639
Following you? Miss Templeton is a woman, a woman with311203:01:48.760 --> 03:01:52.840
a long skirt and heavy black veil. There aren't many311303:01:52.879 --> 03:01:56.000
women who wear that kind of dress nowadays. Look out311403:01:56.040 --> 03:02:03.840
into the street. Do you see anybody? No, sir, there's311503:02:04.079 --> 03:02:07.719
just what's that? That's one of the old chief musicians. Sir,311603:02:08.239 --> 03:02:09.479
he doesn't mean any harm.311703:02:09.760 --> 03:02:12.799
I won't have that tune played, you hear, I'm missed311803:02:12.840 --> 03:02:14.079
getting my order as a bathe and I'm going to311903:02:14.120 --> 03:02:16.040

tell him to go away, Yes, sir if you insist,312103:02:18.520 --> 03:02:21.479
but who is not told? And don't ask questions anybody312203:02:21.520 --> 03:02:21.840
wants me.312303:02:22.479 --> 03:02:23.000
I shall be with.312403:02:23.079 --> 03:02:40.200
Mister Wilmot very good, sir, will anything? Willmas mind if312503:02:40.200 --> 03:02:42.079
I down for a minute, I'm not at all.312603:02:42.159 --> 03:02:46.319
Pull up a chair some coffee, No thanks, I'll get312703:02:46.360 --> 03:02:49.440
down to brass text right away. You always do.312803:02:49.559 --> 03:02:50.159
I've noticed that.312903:02:50.479 --> 03:02:53.159
Well, I'm a pretty self subvision kind of a fellow, Wilmas.313003:02:53.600 --> 03:02:55.520
I made a name for myself, even if I do313103:02:55.639 --> 03:02:59.719
say it myself. But well, the fact is I need advice.313203:03:01.000 --> 03:03:03.760
Stressful publisher asking advice from one of his own authors.313303:03:04.360 --> 03:03:06.920
That's something new, isn't it. Look here? Well, what I'm serious?313403:03:07.040 --> 03:03:08.639
All right? All right? I take it back.313503:03:09.440 --> 03:03:12.559
What's on your mind? When you've studied what we'll call313603:03:12.719 --> 03:03:16.440
the supernatural, haven't you? I've lectured and written books about it?313703:03:16.559 --> 03:03:19.319
Yes? And did you ever meet a ghost?313803:03:21.079 --> 03:03:23.559
No? I can't say I ever did, have you?313903:03:24.360 --> 03:03:28.840
It might only be my own imagination. Yes, that's what314003:03:29.000 --> 03:03:32.440
scares me. You get on in years, ftter is hardened.314103:03:32.520 --> 03:03:34.639
You don't take enough exercise. You think something ought to314203:03:34.639 --> 03:03:38.159
be done about your waistline, but you never bother see Wilmas,314303:03:38.760 --> 03:03:40.360
I went to a funeral yesterday.314403:03:40.600 --> 03:03:42.040
You did funeral?314503:03:42.120 --> 03:03:42.159
What?314603:03:42.680 --> 03:03:44.639
The person who died has nothing to do with this.314703:03:45.520 --> 03:03:47.959
It was Old Simpson of Holly and Sons. We thought314803:03:48.000 --> 03:03:49.479
it was only decent to make up a party and314903:03:49.559 --> 03:03:52.000
go to the tuneral. And I took my secretary along,315003:03:52.280 --> 03:03:55.319
well named Molly Carroll. I'm believe it for Washington tomorrow.315103:03:55.840 --> 03:03:58.040
Besides a moving house, so there was a lot of315203:03:58.079 --> 03:04:03.479
work to do. I couldn't stand with that infernal cemetery315303:04:03.520 --> 03:04:06.680
in the rain. We must have gone in by the315403:04:06.760 --> 03:04:11.239
wrong gate. Because we were in a neglection desperate part315503:04:11.280 --> 03:04:24.120
of the cemetery, the rank grass over the grave. You'll315603:04:24.120 --> 03:04:26.680
oblige me, Missus Carroll, if you first find out the315703:04:26.879 --> 03:04:29.879
proper directions about places. We've come in the wrong gates315803:04:29.920 --> 03:04:32.559
of the cemetery. Well, I'm sorry, mister Templeton. I just315903:04:32.719 --> 03:04:35.600
thought doesn't matter. Now this is the wrong part of316003:04:35.639 --> 03:04:38.479
the cemetery. My shoes are absolutely ruined.316103:04:38.520 --> 03:04:39.200
But let's play.316203:04:39.399 --> 03:04:41.760
And it isn't doing my own shoes and stockings any good.316303:04:41.799 --> 03:04:42.760
I'm mister Templeton.316403:04:42.879 --> 03:04:45.959
We've been any mister them. Missus Carroll, I replacement. You316503:04:46.079 --> 03:04:47.399
never found me ungenerous.316603:04:47.479 --> 03:04:50.079
Now I'll have you not exactly ungenerous.316703:04:50.239 --> 03:04:52.879
No, I'll tell you the compliment, Missus Carroll, saying that316803:04:53.000 --> 03:04:54.760
you are the best sectary of a head.316903:04:54.920 --> 03:04:55.239
Thank you.317003:04:56.040 --> 03:04:56.959
Yet you want to leave me?317103:04:57.959 --> 03:05:01.559
Yes, I want to get married as love. Mister Barnes,317203:05:02.799 --> 03:05:05.559
who is this paragon of yours? What does he do?317303:05:05.879 --> 03:05:06.639
He's making any money?317403:05:06.920 --> 03:05:08.360
Thanks for radio technicians.317503:05:08.799 --> 03:05:13.440
He's not very wealthy, Alan wealthy radio technicians, but it317603:05:13.479 --> 03:05:15.959
doesn't make as much as I pay you. Yet you317703:05:16.120 --> 03:05:17.079
want to get married?317803:05:17.280 --> 03:05:19.360
But is there anything very strange about that?317903:05:19.719 --> 03:05:19.920
Yes?318003:05:20.079 --> 03:05:26.040
If it interfears with your career. It lord, look a318103:05:26.920 --> 03:05:27.360
look at.318203:05:28.760 --> 03:05:29.200
Who there?318303:05:29.399 --> 03:05:30.120
We're und pointing.318403:05:31.200 --> 03:05:34.319
You mean that that's only an old gravestone covered with318503:05:34.440 --> 03:05:35.399
weeds and bramble.318603:05:35.719 --> 03:05:37.440
I haven't seen that raising year.318703:05:37.920 --> 03:05:39.239
It looks rather neglected.318803:05:40.040 --> 03:05:42.600
Is no blected, isn't it? Will you go close to318903:05:42.639 --> 03:05:43.719
please and read the inscription?319003:05:43.959 --> 03:05:47.680
Mister Templeton, who as I tell you please, It says,319103:05:48.520 --> 03:05:50.760
let's see if I can get some of these weeds decides,319203:05:52.159 --> 03:05:56.959
It says, sacred to the memory of Mary Ellen Pleaver319303:05:58.040 --> 03:06:03.479
Rawn September fifth, eighteen ninety two, departed this life March319403:06:03.600 --> 03:06:09.879
twenty fifth, nineteen nineteen, thou should still be adored as319503:06:10.000 --> 03:06:15.120
this moment are lett my loveliness, stay as it wins.319603:06:15.879 --> 03:06:18.760
If you know that umbrella, mister Templeton, you'll get soaking.319703:06:18.479 --> 03:06:20.440
Wet into mental crash.319803:06:21.239 --> 03:06:24.520
But she always liked it. She always liked it, Mary319903:06:24.600 --> 03:06:27.799
Ellen Creeber, did you know it very well? Indeed she320003:06:28.000 --> 03:06:31.760
was my wife, your wife, but I never knew you320103:06:31.799 --> 03:06:35.840
were married either, as anybody else Where's my flask of brandy?320203:06:36.159 --> 03:06:36.959
What have I done with it?320303:06:37.040 --> 03:06:39.280
It's in your hip pocket, mister Templeton. But do you320403:06:39.360 --> 03:06:41.840
think that's very wise, you've already had more of than.320503:06:41.840 --> 03:06:45.959
Whatever I do is wise, Miss Carrol, we were married320603:06:46.120 --> 03:06:49.040
very young. She was a nice little thing. I was320703:06:49.079 --> 03:06:51.680
fond of her yet, but she couldn't have helped me.320803:06:52.440 --> 03:06:54.559
I'm not a snob, but she wasn't in my class.320903:06:54.840 --> 03:06:58.200
No style you, no no manners, no no education. Indeed,321003:06:58.760 --> 03:07:00.840
but I have been produced to the friends I was making.321103:07:01.120 --> 03:07:04.280
No would have been kind to her. You didn't even321203:07:04.319 --> 03:07:06.079
want to go to the places where I was invited.321303:07:06.639 --> 03:07:09.120
She'd sit at home and say, what was it like?321403:07:09.479 --> 03:07:11.600
You have a nice time? What was missus so and321503:07:11.719 --> 03:07:12.200
so wary?321603:07:13.159 --> 03:07:14.959
And she loved me.321703:07:15.159 --> 03:07:16.479
I put that to her credit.321803:07:17.280 --> 03:07:18.440
But you left her.321903:07:18.760 --> 03:07:20.600
I thought it was the kindest thing to do. Yes,322003:07:21.040 --> 03:07:25.120
she went away, and I heard she'd had ad was322103:07:25.719 --> 03:07:29.879
nothing doesn't matter? Well, there was a war on. I322203:07:30.000 --> 03:07:32.719
attended the peace conference in Europe. Never even knew she322303:07:32.840 --> 03:07:34.639
was dead until I heard some friends that buried her.322403:07:35.479 --> 03:07:38.159
I always promised to call her up. She said she'd322503:07:38.200 --> 03:07:39.319
come back to me if I did.322603:07:40.440 --> 03:07:43.280
You couldn't call her up now, mister Templeton, even if322703:07:43.319 --> 03:07:45.440
you wanted to know, I suppose not.322803:07:46.719 --> 03:07:47.680
I was was fond of her.322903:07:48.639 --> 03:07:50.040
I wish there was something I could do.323003:07:50.479 --> 03:07:53.760
You could have her grave care for, have some flowers323103:07:53.840 --> 03:07:54.280
put on it.323203:07:54.639 --> 03:07:55.680
Actually, that's an idea.323303:07:56.079 --> 03:07:56.760
She'd have liked that.323403:07:57.360 --> 03:07:58.440
Can you take care of that for me?323503:07:58.600 --> 03:08:00.719
I'll look after it tomorrow morning, temple.323603:08:00.920 --> 03:08:03.239
But how will they ever be able to locate the grave?323703:08:03.879 --> 03:08:06.920
It must be houss In this cemetery, each grave had.323803:08:06.840 --> 03:08:08.920
A number, you know, cut into the stone so you323903:08:08.959 --> 03:08:09.760
can identify it.324003:08:10.639 --> 03:08:13.440
This is number one two one.324103:08:13.440 --> 03:08:17.079
Two one too, one too. It sounds like a telephone number,324203:08:17.079 --> 03:08:23.000
doesn't it? Yes, one two one too? Poor girl?324303:08:23.239 --> 03:08:24.280
Where was fond of her?324403:08:24.440 --> 03:08:27.959
Please, mister Templeton, come along and and please no more, Brandy,324503:08:28.040 --> 03:08:29.399
You've got a funeral to attend.324603:08:42.799 --> 03:08:47.159
And then will much The light came and the horror?324703:08:47.639 --> 03:08:52.079
What horror? Take it easy, man, there's nothing to worry about.324803:08:52.120 --> 03:08:54.559
You were sitting here in the Cosmopolites club. Yes, but324903:08:54.600 --> 03:08:56.000
I wasn't sitting in the club last night.325003:08:56.399 --> 03:08:58.520
I was on my way home. And why should that325103:08:58.600 --> 03:09:01.280
scare you? I don't know, but I did. I'd been325203:09:01.360 --> 03:09:02.120
jumping all day.325303:09:02.799 --> 03:09:06.239
I'd internal number kept running through my head, Meadowvale one325403:09:06.360 --> 03:09:07.159
two one two.325503:09:08.040 --> 03:09:09.280
Have you ever seen my house?325603:09:09.920 --> 03:09:12.959
Yes, there's that big sham gothic place on Riverside Drive,325703:09:13.040 --> 03:09:16.479
isn't it. There's big and dark and drafty like a mausoleum.325803:09:17.239 --> 03:09:19.559
I told you it was moving house to an apartment downtown,325903:09:20.719 --> 03:09:23.159
but there were some papers there I had to get326003:09:23.159 --> 03:09:24.959
out of the safe in the library to take with326103:09:25.079 --> 03:09:28.239
me to washingtmorrow when you the servants have been gone,326203:09:28.280 --> 03:09:31.920
of course, but I hope missus Bloom, that's my housekeeper,326303:09:32.479 --> 03:09:37.159
would still be there. Then when I went up the326403:09:37.239 --> 03:09:39.600
park about six point thirty.326503:09:42.239 --> 03:09:47.840
Meadow Vale one two one two, meadow Vale one too326603:09:48.479 --> 03:09:50.920
one two, meadow Vale.326703:09:50.959 --> 03:09:55.719
One too one two, meadow Vale one two one two,326803:10:05.120 --> 03:10:07.600
the surprise, Sorry to trouble Mission room.326903:10:07.879 --> 03:10:09.159
I think you have mislaid my key.327003:10:09.280 --> 03:10:10.639
Yeah, they got to swall I had at my key327103:10:10.760 --> 03:10:11.200
in this morning.327203:10:11.639 --> 03:10:15.840
It's no trouble, mister Templeton. Only I hope you're not327303:10:16.000 --> 03:10:17.479
planning to spend the night here.327403:10:17.559 --> 03:10:18.479
No, I'm going to a hotel.327503:10:20.000 --> 03:10:23.319
What do you was because they disconnected everything except the327603:10:23.360 --> 03:10:25.120
electricity and taken.327703:10:24.879 --> 03:10:28.120
Away most of the furnitures, have touched anything in the library, No, sir,327803:10:28.520 --> 03:10:29.079
I told.327903:10:28.920 --> 03:10:29.799
Him you said to leave that.328003:10:31.040 --> 03:10:32.719
But it does seem a pity in a way.328103:10:32.840 --> 03:10:35.479
What seems a pity to break up a lovely home328203:10:35.639 --> 03:10:37.399
like this after all these years.328303:10:37.559 --> 03:10:41.360
Oh, this big, ugly picture gallery, it's been a home328403:10:41.479 --> 03:10:44.040
to me, sir. I pretty you generously, haven't I?328503:10:44.600 --> 03:10:46.680
Yes, sir, I'm sorry.328603:10:46.959 --> 03:10:48.719
I've got several hours work to do with his room,328703:10:49.040 --> 03:10:50.200
the whole safe full of papers.328803:10:50.239 --> 03:10:50.680
That thought over.328903:10:50.959 --> 03:10:54.000
I'm going to the library, and I'll hiding behind your back.329003:10:54.280 --> 03:10:59.639
I'm not hiding anything. It's only a music foster I329103:10:59.719 --> 03:11:01.879
found with the epic when the moving men were here.329203:11:02.959 --> 03:11:06.760
If I hadn't now never well known ladies in your life,329303:11:06.799 --> 03:11:08.520
I'd have said it belongs to one of them.329403:11:09.639 --> 03:11:11.639
I love to hear them, sir, may.329503:11:11.559 --> 03:11:17.079
I if we don't want me to that music box, Yes,329603:11:17.120 --> 03:11:17.559
but I'm.329703:11:17.440 --> 03:11:20.840
Sure I've never I'm going to the library. We can't329803:11:20.840 --> 03:11:25.280
find any family to probe bring them, yes, sir, seriously,329903:11:31.440 --> 03:11:37.399
same old library, same old claw for this. There's the330003:11:37.520 --> 03:11:41.200
nice mirror she brought for you. Look at yourself in330103:11:41.239 --> 03:11:44.600
the mirror. Templeton we'll meet. You can't face it, we'll330203:11:44.760 --> 03:11:47.399
you can't work here tonight. You've got to have lights330303:11:47.440 --> 03:11:49.239
of music and that's it.330403:11:49.440 --> 03:11:52.879
Go out for dinner. Telephone will want if we've let330503:11:52.920 --> 03:11:59.239
the phone. Oh yes, good here it is. Oh hell, yes,330603:11:59.559 --> 03:12:02.239
I'm up. I uh, I.330703:12:03.920 --> 03:12:09.920
Want a there, want to want to wait?330803:12:10.040 --> 03:12:12.399
What the devil's name am I saying? Change that? I want?330903:12:12.799 --> 03:12:15.559
Hello, my darling, I knew you'd call me.331003:12:15.639 --> 03:12:16.239
When you needed.331103:12:16.920 --> 03:12:17.680
Who's speaking?331203:12:17.799 --> 03:12:23.040
Why it's Mary Ellen, dear? Don't you recognize it's not very.331303:12:25.040 --> 03:12:25.200
Dead?331403:12:26.799 --> 03:12:30.559
But the dead sleep rightly and they can be lonely too.331503:12:31.520 --> 03:12:33.840
And now that you do me, I don't need you,331603:12:33.959 --> 03:12:34.719
don't need anybody.331703:12:34.760 --> 03:12:36.479
I'm coming back to join you there.331803:12:37.200 --> 03:12:40.159
It's not easy, but I'll be there by the time331903:12:40.280 --> 03:12:41.440
the clock strikes seven.332003:12:42.440 --> 03:12:46.399
We're there because I don't look very pretty. I will,332103:12:48.600 --> 03:12:52.680
my dear, remember when the clock strike seven?332203:12:57.239 --> 03:12:58.319
What on earth is the matter?332303:12:58.639 --> 03:13:00.799
Who the ticks pair?332403:13:00.920 --> 03:13:03.600
I don't understand who spoke to me on this phone.332503:13:03.760 --> 03:13:06.600
But sir, nobody could have spoken to you on that phone.332603:13:06.680 --> 03:13:08.399
Nobody could have What are you talking about?332703:13:08.559 --> 03:13:09.799
That phone's disconnected?332803:13:10.239 --> 03:13:11.639
Disconnected, sair.332903:13:11.719 --> 03:13:14.280
The man came here this afternoon and took that meccal333003:13:14.360 --> 03:13:16.840
box off the wall and rolled all the wires up333103:13:16.920 --> 03:13:19.319
and put everything on the desk chair, said he'd.333203:13:19.159 --> 03:13:20.600
Be back to Marrath take it away.333303:13:21.719 --> 03:13:22.639
That's impossible.333403:13:23.159 --> 03:13:24.079
Look for yourself.333503:13:24.639 --> 03:13:27.079
You're standing in the middle of the room holding that phone,333603:13:27.399 --> 03:13:29.040
and the wires don't lead anywhere.333703:13:29.639 --> 03:13:30.200
That's true.333803:13:30.680 --> 03:13:32.959
So you couldn't very well have talked to anybody on333903:13:33.040 --> 03:13:35.280
the phone that wasn't connected, Now, could you?334003:13:35.479 --> 03:13:37.399
I tell you I got the operator, I heard it ring.334103:13:37.479 --> 03:13:40.399
I talked to to someone else.334203:13:40.799 --> 03:13:43.360
Oh and what did that person say?334303:13:43.840 --> 03:13:47.360
She said he'd be here to visit me when.334403:13:58.920 --> 03:14:00.200
The templeton Boston.334503:14:09.600 --> 03:14:13.799
And so Wilma. That's what happened last night? Who was disconnected?334603:14:13.840 --> 03:14:16.120
It was Mary Ellen's voice. There's no doubt about that.334703:14:17.040 --> 03:14:18.159
Am I out of my mind?334803:14:18.520 --> 03:14:21.120
Or what before I say anything about that?334903:14:21.319 --> 03:14:23.440
My friend? Well, what's hear?335003:14:23.520 --> 03:14:26.159
The end of your story? What did happen when the335103:14:26.200 --> 03:14:28.879
clock struck seven? I don't know, You don't know.335203:14:29.280 --> 03:14:31.280
No, I lost my head, ran out of that house,335303:14:31.639 --> 03:14:34.760
though the devil were after me. Maybe he was then335403:14:35.000 --> 03:14:38.559
spent the night at the hotel. Today. I walked past335503:14:38.600 --> 03:14:41.479
that house fifty time, one hundred times, trying to muster335603:14:41.639 --> 03:14:43.040
up enough nerve to go in.335703:14:43.959 --> 03:14:46.520
I couldn't do it, But I've got to go in there.335803:14:46.959 --> 03:14:49.479
Why it's those peoples I've got to take to Washington335903:14:50.040 --> 03:14:51.200
and somebody else to get them.336003:14:51.319 --> 03:14:54.719
I can't do that, Wilmot is confidential the nation for336103:14:54.799 --> 03:14:58.760
the government. I've thought of everything. I even put her336203:14:58.840 --> 03:14:59.719
revolve see.336303:15:00.079 --> 03:15:01.840
Love of Heaven. Man, put that gun away if you336403:15:01.879 --> 03:15:04.280
want the other club members to think you have gone insane.336503:15:04.200 --> 03:15:06.639
And I thought of you. We know all the ticks336603:15:06.680 --> 03:15:09.360
of fake spiritualists. You've written about it, lectured about it.336703:15:10.479 --> 03:15:13.200
Which reminds me by the way that I'm lecturing before336803:15:13.239 --> 03:15:15.079
the Acropolis Club in about twenty minutes.336903:15:15.120 --> 03:15:18.159
You've got to break that engagement, Wilma. Why because you're337003:15:18.200 --> 03:15:18.639
going with me.337103:15:18.680 --> 03:15:21.600
To my house tonight. No, it's impossible, old man. I'll337203:15:21.600 --> 03:15:24.120
sit quietly and listen to me. I'll go with you337303:15:24.239 --> 03:15:25.319
willingly tomorrow morning.337403:15:25.399 --> 03:15:28.079
That's too late. I'm taking it early play to Washington. Well,337503:15:28.159 --> 03:15:29.920
then wait until i can get away from the lecture,337603:15:30.559 --> 03:15:33.879
say around midnight. I'll tell you what I'll do. I'll337703:15:33.879 --> 03:15:35.600
take a taxi and join you as soon as I can.337803:15:35.719 --> 03:15:38.799
I won't do I've got to know no the answer.337903:15:38.879 --> 03:15:41.920
Now, you understand you being a little unreasonable about this338003:15:42.079 --> 03:15:43.840
unreasonable not I usually get my own way, and I338103:15:43.920 --> 03:15:45.200
need to have it now. Well, then I played you'll338203:15:45.200 --> 03:15:48.479
have to go to the house alone. Besides, no, will338303:15:48.559 --> 03:15:52.760
not worry me. Shit there puffing at that pipe, looking338403:15:52.840 --> 03:15:55.440
at me out of those queer eyes of yours like338503:15:55.600 --> 03:15:59.239
a young satan. I've often wondered what you were really338603:15:59.319 --> 03:16:03.920
thinking about, since you flatter my intelligence so much. I338703:16:04.079 --> 03:16:06.440
was wondering whether you'd been quite frank with me? Frank338803:16:06.520 --> 03:16:06.680
with you?338903:16:06.799 --> 03:16:10.079
How about your late wife, Mary Ellen Kleeber?339003:16:10.200 --> 03:16:14.840
What about her after she left you? Something happened that339103:16:15.959 --> 03:16:19.120
you don't like to talk about. Was there, by any339203:16:19.239 --> 03:16:22.200
chance a child, a son, for instance.339303:16:21.959 --> 03:16:23.319
Or did you say your son?339403:16:24.479 --> 03:16:28.200
Yes, I don't know what you're talking about. And let's339503:16:28.239 --> 03:16:29.920
agree not to understand each other, shall we?339603:16:30.239 --> 03:16:31.319
How are you coming with me.339703:16:31.399 --> 03:16:31.760
Or aren't you?339803:16:31.879 --> 03:16:33.399
I tell you, man, I'll get there as soon as339903:16:33.479 --> 03:16:33.799
I can.340003:16:34.920 --> 03:16:37.639
All I can think about was the wick wed play340103:16:37.680 --> 03:16:42.600
in that cemetery with hismal graves in the rain, what340203:16:42.760 --> 03:16:45.639
her face might look like she raised the veil?340303:16:46.559 --> 03:16:50.280
And what am I going to see in that house?340403:16:51.559 --> 03:16:53.000
What am I going to see in that house?340503:17:05.559 --> 03:17:10.280
So the clocks chime, the hours dwindle, the traffic roar340603:17:10.319 --> 03:17:12.680
of the city sinks to a low growl. Behind twin340703:17:12.760 --> 03:17:18.000
spring lights. It is midnight when the taxi moves along340803:17:18.079 --> 03:17:21.799
a certain steak toward a certain house out of a340903:17:21.879 --> 03:17:28.159
bygone age, lifeless black against the stars, surrounded by iron railings,341003:17:28.200 --> 03:17:30.799
and with a path bordered by fir trees leading to341103:17:30.879 --> 03:17:34.879
the front door. Looked too with the face of mister341203:17:35.040 --> 03:17:36.000
Patrick Wilmot.341303:17:36.639 --> 03:17:38.200
When that taxi draws.341403:17:42.280 --> 03:17:49.959
All right, drivers, just as the price, I mean away fair, No,341503:17:50.680 --> 03:17:53.879
needn't wait, keep a change, thank your shirt.341603:17:54.680 --> 03:17:54.840
Night.341703:18:01.760 --> 03:18:05.280
Hmmm. So the front gate is open, and he did341803:18:05.479 --> 03:18:09.840
go in, and I beg your pardon. I didn't mean341903:18:09.840 --> 03:18:10.399
to bump into.342003:18:10.319 --> 03:18:12.360
You, mister Wilmot.342103:18:13.520 --> 03:18:14.479
You know who I am.342203:18:14.879 --> 03:18:18.079
Yes, I've seen you several times in our office. I'm342303:18:18.120 --> 03:18:19.959
Molly Carroll, mister Templeton secretary.342403:18:20.719 --> 03:18:21.520
What are you doing here?342503:18:21.879 --> 03:18:23.319
Well, it's mister Templeton.342603:18:23.959 --> 03:18:24.559
What about him?342703:18:24.559 --> 03:18:25.520
Well, that's what I want to know.342803:18:25.920 --> 03:18:28.440
I was out with Frank, that's my fiance, and when342903:18:28.479 --> 03:18:30.280
I got home, the girl I room with said that343003:18:30.559 --> 03:18:33.520
mister Templeton had been phoning and phoning all evening. She343103:18:33.559 --> 03:18:36.479
said he sounded drunk or something. He wanted somebody to343203:18:36.520 --> 03:18:37.120
go with him.343303:18:37.000 --> 03:18:37.559
To this house.343403:18:38.559 --> 03:18:42.520
Evidently I wasn't the only person he applied to shall343503:18:42.559 --> 03:18:42.920
we go in?343603:18:44.000 --> 03:18:46.840
Yes, the whole house is talk. Suppose he isn't there?343703:18:46.959 --> 03:18:49.719
He is there, all right, You don't know men like343803:18:49.840 --> 03:18:56.440
Bert Templeton put us. I'll push the gate wider. Now,343903:18:56.639 --> 03:18:59.760
straight up the walk to the front door. I've got344003:19:00.799 --> 03:19:04.120
what are we going to find? Something rather unpleasant? I344103:19:04.239 --> 03:19:04.799
got to warn you.344203:19:05.000 --> 03:19:05.440
How do you know?344303:19:06.719 --> 03:19:09.159
I have my ways of knowing, Carol? Oh?344403:19:09.239 --> 03:19:12.239
Look what is it that French window to left the344503:19:12.280 --> 03:19:15.200
front door. Yes, it's part in the open.344603:19:16.200 --> 03:19:19.799
There's nothing in that Necessarily. Temple And said he lost344703:19:19.840 --> 03:19:21.440
his key. He might have had to open a window.344803:19:21.600 --> 03:19:22.159
That's true.344903:19:23.840 --> 03:19:24.680
So you see it too.345003:19:24.760 --> 03:19:25.680
Do you see what?345103:19:27.000 --> 03:19:29.239
There's a footprint across the cell of that French window,345203:19:29.680 --> 03:19:32.280
A footprint made in wet clay.345303:19:32.680 --> 03:19:35.479
It's like like the clay of the cemetery.345403:19:36.120 --> 03:19:39.280
So I should imagine. Will you go in first? Or345503:19:39.360 --> 03:19:40.760
shall I into that dark room?345603:19:40.840 --> 03:19:41.280
I will not?345703:19:41.799 --> 03:19:43.799
Well, then stay here please until I get some lights on.345803:19:44.079 --> 03:19:45.319
No, wait, I'll go.345903:19:46.079 --> 03:19:47.399
Let me take your arm, all right.346003:19:47.440 --> 03:19:51.360
Be careful now, hmm?346103:19:52.079 --> 03:19:52.479
I thought?346203:19:52.559 --> 03:19:52.600
So?346303:19:53.879 --> 03:19:57.600
Which room is the library? And there are more footprints346403:19:57.639 --> 03:20:00.520
of somebody or something walking in?346503:20:01.200 --> 03:20:04.479
Really there.346603:20:06.440 --> 03:20:09.479
It's only me, sir, this is Bloom, the housekeeper. And346703:20:09.600 --> 03:20:11.120
what's the idea of standing in the dark room in346803:20:11.159 --> 03:20:13.040
the middle of the night with what sounds like it's346903:20:13.120 --> 03:20:16.280
only a music boxer. I left it behind along with347003:20:16.440 --> 03:20:19.159
some other things, and came back to get them. I've347103:20:19.239 --> 03:20:22.360
got my own key. I thought I heard a noise347203:20:22.399 --> 03:20:22.719
in here.347303:20:22.840 --> 03:20:23.719
Why aren't there any lights?347403:20:24.000 --> 03:20:27.280
The electricity is cut half, sir? It was cut half today?347503:20:28.360 --> 03:20:28.719
Might be.347603:20:31.280 --> 03:20:35.200
Templeton is here or was here? You had some kind347703:20:35.239 --> 03:20:39.520
of light. I turned the splashlight on a desk, maybe si,347803:20:39.879 --> 03:20:40.719
miss Carol, what.347903:20:40.879 --> 03:20:41.319
Is it, sir?348003:20:41.520 --> 03:20:43.520
And it's blind as a bet without my glasses.348103:20:43.719 --> 03:20:47.600
Mister Templeton, who's lying on the floor beside the desk? Oh,348203:20:47.680 --> 03:20:50.559
he isn't dead based the color of putty, I think348303:20:50.600 --> 03:20:53.520
he's had some kind of stroke. Better not take any chances,348403:20:53.559 --> 03:20:56.440
missus Bloom, Yes, sir, get outside of the nearest telephone348503:20:56.440 --> 03:20:58.399
and call for an ambulance. Tlem it's an emergency case.348603:20:58.520 --> 03:20:59.760
You're mister will but aren't you?348703:21:00.120 --> 03:21:02.000
But but what happened to him?348803:21:02.559 --> 03:21:03.559
Ask a dead woman?348903:21:03.959 --> 03:21:04.959
I beg your pardon.349003:21:05.479 --> 03:21:12.360
Never mind, honey, what are we going to do? Let's349103:21:12.399 --> 03:21:16.120
have a look around. Temperton seems to have been working349203:21:16.159 --> 03:21:17.879
at his papers. For the light of a couple of349303:21:18.040 --> 03:21:24.799
candles which somebody's blown out. We'll relight them. Uh, where's349403:21:24.879 --> 03:21:27.239
the best with all the papers?349503:21:28.000 --> 03:21:29.600
Got it round, Wilma, Please?349603:21:29.959 --> 03:21:30.959
What happened to him?349703:21:31.840 --> 03:21:32.360
I'll tell you.349803:21:33.959 --> 03:21:36.399
As he sat there in the dim light of two candles,349903:21:36.440 --> 03:21:38.559
that ghostly figure appeared at that French window.350003:21:39.399 --> 03:21:41.920
Wore a long old fashioned skirt and a heavy black350103:21:42.000 --> 03:21:46.600
veil to hide the face. Walked toward Templeton, tracking graveyard clay.350203:21:47.280 --> 03:21:50.600
It stretched his arms to him like this, keep away please.350303:21:50.719 --> 03:21:56.079
Templeton couldn't stand it. He collapsed, And now before the350403:21:56.120 --> 03:21:58.040
old housekeeper attends. Would you care to hear how the350503:21:58.079 --> 03:22:01.719
whole trick was worse trick? Have you heard about the350603:22:01.760 --> 03:22:04.159
ghost voice that talked on a disconnected telephone?350703:22:04.200 --> 03:22:04.319
Oh?350803:22:04.399 --> 03:22:06.879
Yes, yes, he said tempting about it this morning.350903:22:06.719 --> 03:22:09.239
But I thought he wasn't in tilf he wasn't, but351003:22:09.399 --> 03:22:09.799
he heard it.351103:22:11.040 --> 03:22:16.159
Remember missus Bloom's story about the telephone man. Yes, we351203:22:16.280 --> 03:22:18.479
don't send a man around to yank the whole apparatus351303:22:18.520 --> 03:22:20.159
off the wall, put it on the desk and say351403:22:20.200 --> 03:22:22.920
he'll be back for it next day. This man from351503:22:22.959 --> 03:22:24.440
the telephone company was an imposter.351603:22:25.000 --> 03:22:27.879
The man from the telephone company was an imposter.351703:22:28.200 --> 03:22:28.559
Exactly.351803:22:29.600 --> 03:22:32.239
Oh look he's moving his hands, he's trying to open351903:22:32.319 --> 03:22:35.120
his eyes. Isn't there anything we can do for him?352003:22:35.239 --> 03:22:36.959
No, there's nothing we can do to The doctor arrived352103:22:37.559 --> 03:22:40.559
in the meantime. Listen to me, all right, what did352203:22:40.600 --> 03:22:43.559
this imposter do? We took away the real phone and352303:22:43.680 --> 03:22:47.000
substituted a spirit telephone. You don't know what a spirit352403:22:47.079 --> 03:22:51.600
telephone is. It's an old device used by fake mediums.352503:22:52.479 --> 03:22:55.040
You see a telephone without wires standing on a desk352603:22:55.239 --> 03:22:58.120
like that one, We pick up the receiver and talk352703:22:58.200 --> 03:23:00.959
to the dead. Of course she really talking to the352803:23:01.000 --> 03:23:02.959
phone at all. But if you don't talk into the phone,352903:23:03.000 --> 03:23:06.360
then fixed underneath the desk is a tiny microphone with353003:23:06.520 --> 03:23:08.879
hidden wires leading to another room in the same house.353103:23:09.520 --> 03:23:11.840
That microphone picks up every word you think you were353203:23:11.879 --> 03:23:13.280
saying to the phone. Is that clear?353303:23:13.799 --> 03:23:14.239
I think so.353403:23:15.520 --> 03:23:18.799
The dummy telephone is really a low power radio receiving set.353503:23:19.399 --> 03:23:21.600
Somebody in another room didn't talk back to you after353603:23:21.680 --> 03:23:24.319
hearing what you say on the wired microphone.353703:23:23.920 --> 03:23:25.079
Then mister Templeson.353803:23:25.079 --> 03:23:27.799
If Templon hadn't rung meadow Vale one two one two,353903:23:28.520 --> 03:23:30.920
when rest assured that same number would have rung him.354003:23:31.000 --> 03:23:32.840
Well in the scheme, couldn't sail either way.354103:23:33.200 --> 03:23:36.040
But you see, there's one thing in this matter I354203:23:36.120 --> 03:23:37.639
haven't got quite clear even yet.354303:23:37.920 --> 03:23:38.399
And what's that?354403:23:39.200 --> 03:23:40.840
Tell me, miss Carol? Just why did you work this354503:23:40.920 --> 03:23:41.319
whole trick?354603:23:41.360 --> 03:23:42.719
Why did you try to scare your part of the354703:23:42.760 --> 03:23:44.840
desk Templon is your father, isn't he?354803:23:46.879 --> 03:23:51.959
That might be rather difficult to prove, mister Wilmot bry George,354903:23:52.000 --> 03:23:52.680
I admire you.355003:23:52.840 --> 03:23:56.559
Thanks very much. I'm flatted, expressionless.355103:23:55.920 --> 03:23:59.040
As ever, eyes as hard and cold and blue, and355203:23:59.719 --> 03:24:03.399
hands him as well. Make your own comparisons. But I355303:24:03.479 --> 03:24:04.920
knew you were gilly of course when I heard your355403:24:05.000 --> 03:24:06.079
fiance was a radio tick.355503:24:06.120 --> 03:24:07.040
You can leave Frank out of.355603:24:07.040 --> 03:24:10.840
This, Oh scrupled. Have I touched you?355703:24:11.000 --> 03:24:14.440
Nothing can touch me. Not since my mother died.355803:24:14.440 --> 03:24:17.440
Your fiance installed the ghost mechanism and took it away today.355903:24:17.520 --> 03:24:18.920
He probably thought it was only a joke.356003:24:19.000 --> 03:24:20.120
He did, I swear he did.356103:24:20.360 --> 03:24:22.479
And the rest of it was plain enough. Who led356203:24:22.520 --> 03:24:24.440
Temple into the wrong gate in the cemetery past that356303:24:24.520 --> 03:24:25.079
woman's grave?356403:24:25.159 --> 03:24:25.440
You did?356503:24:26.280 --> 03:24:27.719
Who was the only one who could have stolen the356603:24:27.760 --> 03:24:29.319
key to his house off that key ring he took356703:24:29.319 --> 03:24:31.760
to the office. You were you needed that key to356803:24:31.840 --> 03:24:33.520
come and go as you liked and impersonate the two356903:24:33.559 --> 03:24:34.319
voices on the phone.357003:24:34.479 --> 03:24:35.760
Is there any need to go on with this?357103:24:36.360 --> 03:24:40.600
He killed her, you know, Temple and killed your mother.357203:24:40.879 --> 03:24:43.319
Oh, not with a knife or a bullet or poison.357303:24:43.959 --> 03:24:46.879
All he did was break a heart and that's no357403:24:47.040 --> 03:24:50.360
offense in law. I've done what I wanted to do.357503:24:50.799 --> 03:24:53.559
I've torn his whole rotten life to pieces. And there357603:24:53.639 --> 03:24:56.479
he is, gasping for breath on the floor, and I'm glad.357703:24:56.879 --> 03:24:57.440
I'm glad.357803:25:00.079 --> 03:25:01.639
Don't forgives me he.357903:25:01.879 --> 03:25:05.239
Is my father, if you know you're his daughter? No, no,358003:25:05.399 --> 03:25:05.920
of course not.358103:25:07.000 --> 03:25:08.799
When I went to work for him as a secretary,358203:25:09.639 --> 03:25:12.520
he hadn't even seen me since child. But I got358303:25:12.639 --> 03:25:14.959
near him. I worked for years to get near him.358403:25:16.959 --> 03:25:18.639
I wish I hadn't here.358503:25:18.680 --> 03:25:19.879
You've got to pull yourself together.358603:25:20.000 --> 03:25:21.079
Boy, who kids?358703:25:22.239 --> 03:25:23.840
The ambulance coming and maybe the police.358803:25:24.079 --> 03:25:25.559
What do I tell the police?358903:25:25.559 --> 03:25:28.319
What you like, my dear girl, You don't think I'll359003:25:28.360 --> 03:25:28.959
tell him anything.359103:25:29.639 --> 03:25:33.479
I'm merely an onlooker, an amateur thinking who doesn't believe359203:25:33.520 --> 03:25:34.360
in ghost voices.359303:25:35.600 --> 03:25:36.639
What's that temper?359403:25:36.840 --> 03:25:40.520
His eyes are open. He's trying to get up so359503:25:41.799 --> 03:25:43.479
he could see something that we can't.359603:25:43.719 --> 03:25:44.680
Man, he's got his hands.359703:25:45.159 --> 03:25:45.760
It's a revolver.359803:25:45.879 --> 03:25:46.639
He had one at the clubs.359903:25:46.719 --> 03:25:49.600
He's putting it against his chest. I'll stop there forgot360003:25:52.600 --> 03:25:56.680
he good lover after all, And now he's tried to Joy.360103:25:58.159 --> 03:26:00.440
I don't let him all right, now, why you grab360203:26:00.559 --> 03:26:01.399
a gun just in time.360303:26:01.559 --> 03:26:04.040
If he doesn't die, I'll make it up to him.360403:26:04.879 --> 03:26:06.719
I swear I'll make it up to him.360503:26:06.760 --> 03:26:08.479
I tell you now, it's just going to die.360603:26:08.959 --> 03:26:11.479
But where whey Ellen?360703:26:12.360 --> 03:26:12.799
Very amen?360803:26:13.159 --> 03:26:13.479
But what.360903:26:15.399 --> 03:26:19.479

My dear, I see you've perked up a little bit.362103:28:04.559 --> 03:28:08.000
Perhaps I have as well. I'd be lying if I362203:28:08.159 --> 03:28:15.760
said that my joviality isn't a bit intense and relentless.362303:28:16.879 --> 03:28:20.680
It's good to have that feeling that something good is362403:28:20.799 --> 03:28:25.840
coming up. What is the opposite of dread?362503:28:27.079 --> 03:28:27.319
Well?362603:28:27.760 --> 03:28:31.000
I suppose I'll have to wonder that for a while.362703:28:34.000 --> 03:28:38.280
It can be hard to feel good about the future362803:28:39.239 --> 03:28:41.680
when you're not sure if you're a part of it362903:28:42.719 --> 03:28:52.079
or simply the past. Especially on this side of Nowhere, you.363003:28:53.639 --> 03:29:00.399
Finding life rather dull, dreaming again of exotic places, wishing363103:29:00.479 --> 03:29:01.440
you were somewhere else.363203:29:02.719 --> 03:29:05.239

Escape with us now to the barren wastes of northern363403:29:22.159 --> 03:29:25.159
Mexico and the story of a fortune in cash to363503:29:25.280 --> 03:29:28.600
be had for the asking. As Anthony Ellis tells it363603:29:28.920 --> 03:29:30.319
in his exciting.363703:29:30.000 --> 03:29:44.159
Story This Side of Nowhere, You want to know where363803:29:44.239 --> 03:29:49.760
you can pick up a quarter of a million dollars well,363903:29:49.840 --> 03:29:53.520
I know a place. The money's ane hundred dollars bills.364003:29:54.840 --> 03:29:56.479
The last time I saw it. It was all in364103:29:56.559 --> 03:29:58.479
one place, and the people who had it were the364203:29:58.680 --> 03:30:04.200
friendliest people in the wood, that is, if you don't364303:30:04.319 --> 03:30:13.719
mind the particular kind of friendship. There hadn't been much364403:30:13.799 --> 03:30:17.079
business in Missouri. Too much competition, and the yocles were364503:30:17.200 --> 03:30:20.799
spoiled taking rides, and the new stuff flying around my364603:30:20.920 --> 03:30:23.360
old Stenson didn't look like much and I couldn't rest364703:30:23.479 --> 03:30:26.399
during tricks in her with me. When the customer paid364803:30:26.479 --> 03:30:29.520
three bucks for a ride, that's what I got a ride.364903:30:30.639 --> 03:30:34.159
So there wasn't much business in Missouri. I've been luckier365003:30:34.239 --> 03:30:36.959
in Kansas, though, hit a couple of towns where a365103:30:37.040 --> 03:30:40.799
plane is still a fancy contraption. As I headed west,365203:30:40.879 --> 03:30:44.239
I was a couple of bucks ahead. About fifty miles365303:30:44.280 --> 03:30:46.959
east of Wichita. I put down on a grass field365403:30:47.040 --> 03:30:50.520
outside Willing, and I figured a day or so here365503:30:50.559 --> 03:30:52.399
would get me enough to buy a new tire for365603:30:52.479 --> 03:30:53.120
the right wheel.365703:31:00.719 --> 03:31:02.760
Hell, hello, there is this your field?365803:31:02.959 --> 03:31:03.200
Say?365903:31:03.559 --> 03:31:06.360
That was pretty coming down out of sky like that.366003:31:06.879 --> 03:31:08.479
I've seen you from a long way.366103:31:08.680 --> 03:31:09.399
You like planes?366203:31:09.719 --> 03:31:10.000
Sure?366303:31:10.399 --> 03:31:11.120
Is this your field?366403:31:11.559 --> 03:31:11.799
Yep?366503:31:12.440 --> 03:31:12.639
Down?366603:31:12.760 --> 03:31:14.000
Spurs bogan stream.366703:31:14.239 --> 03:31:15.760
Oh look, I'd like to make a deal with you366803:31:16.079 --> 03:31:17.959
and shoe. I'll be here for a couple of days.366903:31:18.159 --> 03:31:19.520
Let me keep the plane here, and I'll give you367003:31:19.600 --> 03:31:23.440
five bucks fine and a free ride.367103:31:23.879 --> 03:31:27.680
Mister, you got a deal. My name's Bill maydo Cake.367203:31:34.719 --> 03:31:36.719
I put up my posters in town and waited, and367303:31:36.840 --> 03:31:39.600
by six o'clock that night I made thirty six bucks.367403:31:40.319 --> 03:31:42.440
It looked as if the town of Willing would keep367503:31:42.479 --> 03:31:45.879
me around for maybe three or four days. I put367603:31:45.959 --> 03:31:48.319
the stints in the bed and Bill Maydew's bond, and367703:31:48.360 --> 03:31:51.440
then started out to find a place for myself. The367803:31:51.520 --> 03:31:54.959
old man walked along with me, Say, have you got367903:31:55.000 --> 03:31:57.200
any suggestions where I can put up while I'm here?368003:31:57.520 --> 03:32:00.520
See that flying red horse shine up there? Yeah, yeah,368103:32:00.840 --> 03:32:03.399
right across the street he is, may dude is Willing Hotel,368203:32:03.920 --> 03:32:07.559
Nice and quiet. Two dollars a night, breakfast fifty cent368303:32:07.719 --> 03:32:11.520

city woman staying there, down from Kansas City.368503:32:14.959 --> 03:32:17.120
Now taking the rest Oh that sounds fine.368603:32:17.319 --> 03:32:19.120
Hey, we're having steak for dinner.368703:32:19.719 --> 03:32:21.799
I'll get the wife to put on an extra one.368803:32:21.719 --> 03:32:22.000
For you.368903:32:25.760 --> 03:32:29.319
With a steak inside. I felt pretty good. About an369003:32:29.360 --> 03:32:31.399
hour after dinner, I got to look at the hotel's369103:32:31.559 --> 03:32:36.280
other guests. She was tall, with a big city rye369203:32:36.440 --> 03:32:41.440
crisp figure, and special looking too. She didn't seem to369303:32:41.479 --> 03:32:43.079
notice me as she went over to the desk and369403:32:43.159 --> 03:32:47.680
started to write a letter. I got quiet and long.369503:32:47.719 --> 03:32:49.479
About nine o'clock I was ready to.369603:32:49.559 --> 03:32:50.000
Hit the hay.369703:32:56.879 --> 03:33:02.959
Excuse me, Yeah, you're the man with the plane, aren't you.369803:33:03.200 --> 03:33:04.559
Yes, that's right. Name's Gunnet.369903:33:04.760 --> 03:33:07.799
Mister Maydew told me about you. No, I'm Phyllis Naylor.370003:33:08.159 --> 03:33:09.000
Well, it's nice to meet you.370103:33:09.319 --> 03:33:10.600
I wonder if you'd do me a favor.370203:33:10.760 --> 03:33:11.239
For sure.370303:33:11.440 --> 03:33:13.040

Oh you want me to fly here? Yes, well that's370603:33:17.879 --> 03:33:21.399
about fifty miles. I'd lose business here.370703:33:21.680 --> 03:33:23.719
I'll pay you fifty dollars fifty.370803:33:24.760 --> 03:33:27.159
I wouldn't lose that much. Let's make it twenty.370903:33:27.000 --> 03:33:28.399
Five if that's what you want.371003:33:29.040 --> 03:33:31.120

Have you done much flying?372703:34:39.760 --> 03:34:40.280
Quite a bit?372803:34:40.719 --> 03:34:40.879

But not in this scrape short hops for me. Try374203:35:02.840 --> 03:35:06.000
the airline in Wichita. I can pay, I'll bet you can't,374303:35:06.000 --> 03:35:08.479
but not me. The old windmill wouldn't take it.374403:35:09.479 --> 03:35:13.239
Five thousand dollars five. I could buy a ticket, but374503:35:13.319 --> 03:35:19.760

Of course not?374903:35:27.399 --> 03:35:29.040
Then why don't you use a scheduled line?375003:35:29.200 --> 03:35:32.719
That's not your business. I've got the cash.375103:35:32.799 --> 03:35:33.319
Will you do it?375203:35:34.559 --> 03:35:35.920
No, you better try somebody else.375303:35:36.879 --> 03:35:38.840
We're not going to land Wichita.375403:35:39.600 --> 03:35:40.399
That's what you think.375503:35:41.200 --> 03:35:44.719
I've got a gun, mister Gannett. Don't turn around here.375603:35:45.879 --> 03:35:48.040
Hey, look, I'll be a good girl, will you. We've375703:35:48.040 --> 03:35:49.639
only got enough guess to get the Wichita.375803:35:49.879 --> 03:35:51.959
You're lying. The gauge says full.375903:35:52.040 --> 03:35:53.399
Well, it's it's broken.376003:35:54.120 --> 03:35:55.079
I'll take a chance.376103:35:55.399 --> 03:35:56.879
We can't make it in one hop. I'll have to376203:35:56.959 --> 03:35:57.760
come down sometime.376303:35:58.440 --> 03:35:59.079
That's all right.376403:36:00.040 --> 03:36:01.479
You don't want to get me in trouble, do you.376503:36:02.319 --> 03:36:02.360
No?376603:36:04.000 --> 03:36:06.719
I told you I like you, just as long as376703:36:06.760 --> 03:36:09.360
you take me where I want to go? Head south?376803:36:11.760 --> 03:36:12.040
Go on?376903:36:13.040 --> 03:36:21.879
Okay, where do you want to go?377003:36:22.760 --> 03:36:23.239
Torrion?377103:36:24.280 --> 03:36:26.239
That's over a thousand miles. We'll never make that.377203:36:26.760 --> 03:36:30.520
I think we can. Where do you think you'll have377303:36:30.639 --> 03:36:31.760
to stop to refuel?377403:36:32.239 --> 03:36:34.440
I guess we can make Dallas if we don't blow up.377503:36:34.639 --> 03:36:39.600
All right, Please remember, mister Gannett, I'm quite serious. I377603:36:39.680 --> 03:36:43.559
can easily shoot you and fly myself. I'd rather not.377703:36:44.879 --> 03:36:47.360
Yeah. I remember.377803:36:54.079 --> 03:36:57.239
An hour later, we were flying over Tulsa, Oklahoma, and377903:36:57.360 --> 03:37:00.200
I turned around just once to look at it. She378003:37:00.280 --> 03:37:03.520
hadn't been bluffing. The gun lay in her hand steady378103:37:03.600 --> 03:37:07.000
and pointed at me. I began to think about Dallas.378203:37:07.840 --> 03:37:09.760
We'd have to come down there. It wouldn't be hard378303:37:09.840 --> 03:37:12.680
to get the gun away from her then. But there378403:37:12.760 --> 03:37:17.040
was something else five thousand bucks. I thought of what378503:37:17.120 --> 03:37:18.600
I could do with it. And the more I thought,378603:37:18.639 --> 03:37:21.319
the more I wondered if I was a sucker, Why378703:37:21.440 --> 03:37:23.120
fly with a gun in your back when you could378803:37:23.159 --> 03:37:26.479
make a deal just for the asking. She was in trouble.378903:37:26.520 --> 03:37:28.239
That was her business. I didn't know anything about it,379003:37:28.280 --> 03:37:31.360
and I didn't want to. I reached for the map.379103:37:32.799 --> 03:37:33.399
What are you doing?379203:37:33.520 --> 03:37:35.040
Don't get nervous, honey, I just want to take a379303:37:35.079 --> 03:37:41.440
look at the map. Oh Torreon, Eh eh, I am,379403:37:42.319 --> 03:37:44.920
And I'd say, that's about three hundred miles below the379503:37:45.000 --> 03:37:48.680
border southwest. I know that's bad country in between it.379603:37:48.760 --> 03:37:49.520
We had to come down.379703:37:50.319 --> 03:37:51.079
I know that too.379803:37:52.319 --> 03:37:54.200
Were you kidding about that? Five grand?379903:37:54.559 --> 03:37:57.079
No? All right?380003:37:57.680 --> 03:37:58.440
But the way your gun?380103:37:59.520 --> 03:38:01.559
What happened when we land at Dallas?380203:38:01.799 --> 03:38:03.200
Yes, up, check the motor and go on.380303:38:03.959 --> 03:38:04.959
If you try any.380403:38:04.840 --> 03:38:09.559
Tricks, Why should I good looker like you? Five thousand bucks?380503:38:10.959 --> 03:38:12.120
Can I sit next to you?380603:38:12.360 --> 03:38:16.360
Yeah, sure, come on, there we go.380703:38:17.600 --> 03:38:18.879
Your first name's Deek, isn't it.380803:38:19.520 --> 03:38:21.079
You've been reading hotel registers.380903:38:21.200 --> 03:38:24.120
Yes, you won't be sorry about this.381003:38:24.920 --> 03:38:25.680
I'll bet I want.381103:38:31.600 --> 03:38:34.200
I was proud of the old windmill. I never thought381203:38:34.239 --> 03:38:36.319
she could make it. But by five o'clock that afternoon381303:38:36.399 --> 03:38:38.520
we landed at a town a little north of Laredo.381403:38:39.319 --> 03:38:40.920
We talked about how we were going to get across381503:38:40.959 --> 03:38:43.799
the border. She still hadn't told me anything, but I381603:38:43.920 --> 03:38:46.120
knew that she wanted to get into Mexico with no381703:38:46.280 --> 03:38:49.879
questions asked. So we decided to steer clear of Laredo381803:38:49.959 --> 03:38:52.639
and border guards and hang around until it got dark381903:38:52.719 --> 03:38:56.239
and then take a chance. Took some extra gas aboard382003:38:56.239 --> 03:38:58.760
and what over the motor. Then there was nothing to382103:38:58.799 --> 03:39:01.399
do but wait for the night. We went to a382203:39:01.520 --> 03:39:11.600
cafe to eat. Oh hot, that's the American idea of382303:39:11.680 --> 03:39:14.520
Mexican food. Unless it burns your tongue off, it's not382403:39:14.600 --> 03:39:15.239
the real thing.382503:39:17.120 --> 03:39:19.000
You've done much night flying, oh plenty.382603:39:19.440 --> 03:39:21.840
Used to be with a commercial outfit. Oh they fired382703:39:21.920 --> 03:39:25.040
me for fighting with a passenger. That was before the war.382803:39:25.879 --> 03:39:28.520
Flew B twenty fours out of England and came back.382903:39:29.440 --> 03:39:32.479
Now I'm too old for jets and too independent for383003:39:32.559 --> 03:39:37.680
commercial jobs. So just a skybump. What's so funny?383103:39:38.360 --> 03:39:43.920
Oh you you sounds so tough. I wonder what about you?383203:39:45.200 --> 03:39:47.239
I think you'd make love like a high school boy.383303:39:48.399 --> 03:39:49.159
You want to find out?383403:39:49.920 --> 03:39:53.159
No, how soon do you think we can take off383503:39:53.239 --> 03:39:53.760
a torrion?383603:39:54.600 --> 03:39:55.520
How about an hour or so?383703:39:56.159 --> 03:39:57.879
What about our lights? From we crossed the border.383803:39:58.040 --> 03:40:02.760
We won't have any good anyone ever tell you that383903:40:03.920 --> 03:40:04.920
you're good to look at?384003:40:05.840 --> 03:40:07.520
Yes, but you can tell me again.384103:40:08.479 --> 03:40:09.399
I like your eyes.384203:40:10.399 --> 03:40:17.319
It's soft, sometimes sometimes mean. It's exciting though, God patrol, Hey,384303:40:17.399 --> 03:40:21.760
you're not listening to me. That's the first time I've384403:40:21.799 --> 03:40:26.200
seen that. What you look scared when the cop came in.384503:40:27.360 --> 03:40:28.360
Come on, it's time to go.384603:40:36.559 --> 03:40:38.639
We took off soon after dark. I took her up384703:40:38.639 --> 03:40:41.000
to about eight thousand feet and we crossed the border.384803:40:41.760 --> 03:40:42.319
Next stop.384903:40:42.799 --> 03:40:43.280
Torry On.385003:40:52.159 --> 03:40:54.799
A Rado was nearly two hundred miles behind us, with385103:40:54.920 --> 03:40:56.040
a stensome.385203:40:55.719 --> 03:40:57.680
Die just quit cold.385303:41:00.600 --> 03:41:03.840
We went down nice and easy. I couldn't see anything below.385403:41:03.920 --> 03:41:06.399
All I knew was that we weren't going to make Torryon.385503:41:07.239 --> 03:41:10.719
Liylis didn't scream, She just watched me then before we hit,385603:41:10.879 --> 03:41:12.600
grabbed a suit case up and held it in a lap.385703:41:12.680 --> 03:41:15.319
I remember thinking then it was a funny thing to do,385803:41:16.719 --> 03:41:17.639
and that was all for what.385903:41:34.520 --> 03:41:37.760
Escape, under the direction of Norman mac donald, returns in386003:41:38.000 --> 03:41:40.840
just a moment. You may hail from Harvard with a386103:41:40.920 --> 03:41:43.520
pH d. Or you may come from p S zero386203:41:43.760 --> 03:41:46.600
zero with an E minus average. It makes no difference.386303:41:46.959 --> 03:41:49.959
You're always welcome at our Miss Brooks class on CBS386403:41:50.040 --> 03:41:52.879
Sunday nights for our Miss Brooks is played by Hollywood386503:41:52.920 --> 03:41:55.879

voted Woman of the Year. Now in her third successful386703:41:59.600 --> 03:42:02.959

meets on most of these same CBS stations.387103:42:12.879 --> 03:42:32.360
And now back to Escape. I woke up for a moment.387203:42:32.479 --> 03:42:35.520
Everything was a surprise. I was alive.387303:42:36.920 --> 03:42:37.680
It was getting light.387403:42:38.879 --> 03:42:41.600
A lock of the girl's hair was falling over her eye.387503:42:42.840 --> 03:42:48.520
I reached out for it, felt it. It was wet, bloody.387603:42:50.079 --> 03:42:53.680
She was alive, but I couldn't tell how much I387703:42:53.760 --> 03:42:58.079
looked at my watch it was four point thirty. As387803:42:58.159 --> 03:43:00.040
the gray light came through the brook and window, I387903:43:00.280 --> 03:43:04.440
saw something else. The suitcase. It had broken open and388003:43:04.600 --> 03:43:09.719
spilled out four or five neat green packages. Thing was full,388103:43:10.600 --> 03:43:14.360
packages of new hundred dollars bills. Must have been a388203:43:14.440 --> 03:43:23.879
quarter of a million dollars phyllis phyllis fellas you okay,388303:43:24.959 --> 03:43:28.079
come on, come on, come on? Can you sit that?388403:43:28.399 --> 03:43:28.559
Oh?388503:43:29.280 --> 03:43:29.600
All right?388603:43:30.719 --> 03:43:31.680
Oh my head hurts.388703:43:31.760 --> 03:43:33.920
I'll take it easy for a while, can't I give388803:43:33.959 --> 03:43:36.280
me your gun? No, come on, come on, I want388903:43:36.280 --> 03:43:41.159
to have a look outside. All right, I'll be right back.389003:43:46.719 --> 03:43:49.360
So we'd come down in a kind of basin, and389103:43:49.479 --> 03:43:53.120
all around were riches and low peaks. There was rough389203:43:53.159 --> 03:43:57.639
country all right, from what I could see. Mean, I389303:43:57.719 --> 03:43:59.719
had an idea water was going to be a problem.389403:44:00.719 --> 03:44:02.360
As far as you could see, there was nothing but389503:44:02.559 --> 03:44:06.280
cactus and yuka trees. I started back for the plane,389603:44:06.319 --> 03:44:11.479
and that's when I saw him, sitting under a bush,389703:44:11.600 --> 03:44:12.639
his hat on his knees.389803:44:13.559 --> 03:44:14.760
Morning Senor.389903:44:17.520 --> 03:44:20.239
He was round, and his face was the color of sand,390003:44:21.079 --> 03:44:23.879
and there's a smile with lots of flashing white and390103:44:24.000 --> 03:44:28.239
gold teeth. I guess he was mostly Indian. They had390203:44:28.280 --> 03:44:30.200
the happiest voice I'd ever heard.390303:44:31.120 --> 03:44:35.639
You've had a terrible accident, Signor, I'm so glad you're alive.390403:44:35.760 --> 03:44:36.680
How long have you been here?390503:44:37.079 --> 03:44:38.079
Since earlier?390603:44:38.280 --> 03:44:39.000
How much earlier?390703:44:39.239 --> 03:44:41.600
Ohmuch earlier, Senor.390803:44:41.280 --> 03:44:42.559
Why didn't you try and get us out?390903:44:43.440 --> 03:44:47.319
If you were that one must awaited a reasonable time391003:44:47.399 --> 03:44:49.319
to allow the spirit to depart.391103:44:50.360 --> 03:44:55.079
Oh well, I'm glad to see you. My name's Gannett, Ganet.391203:44:56.120 --> 03:45:01.280
You're American? Yeah, oh good, I love the America. They're391303:45:01.360 --> 03:45:03.959
so rich. I am a Stellan.391403:45:04.639 --> 03:45:05.360
I will help you.391503:45:06.239 --> 03:45:08.479
There is another in the machine with you.391603:45:08.760 --> 03:45:09.840
Yeah, girl, she's hurt.391703:45:10.319 --> 03:45:13.200
We take her to my village. There she will be391803:45:13.399 --> 03:45:17.920
taken care of. I'm so happy that you are alive, Senor.391903:45:18.239 --> 03:45:18.680
Where are we?392003:45:19.399 --> 03:45:19.600
Yeah?392103:45:19.680 --> 03:45:21.559
A little from my village, No.392203:45:21.639 --> 03:45:24.440
I mean halfar from Torreon, Dorreon.392303:45:25.239 --> 03:45:27.399
It is many days from here.392403:45:27.959 --> 03:45:28.200
Ah.392503:45:29.079 --> 03:45:30.120
What's the name of your village?392603:45:30.799 --> 03:45:33.319
El Zilo? It means Heaven send you.392703:45:33.680 --> 03:45:35.239
You will like it now.392803:45:35.360 --> 03:45:37.280
People will be so happy to see you.392903:45:37.959 --> 03:45:38.200
Come.393003:45:38.639 --> 03:45:40.040
We must help your friend.393103:45:45.719 --> 03:45:47.639
When we got back to the plane, Fellows was on393203:45:47.719 --> 03:45:51.079
her feet, and I noticed that the suitcase was closed again.393303:45:51.840 --> 03:45:53.600
She had a cut on her head, but otherwise she393403:45:53.799 --> 03:45:56.719
was okay. She let me carry the case and we393503:45:56.840 --> 03:45:59.719
followed a staban for about a mile to a little canyon,393603:46:00.520 --> 03:46:05.440
and there we saw Elsiello a dozen adobe huts sprawled393703:46:05.479 --> 03:46:06.680
over the canyon floor.393803:46:10.000 --> 03:46:13.680
Then let me take your suitcase, Senor. I will put393903:46:13.719 --> 03:46:14.959
it to where it will be safe.394003:46:15.040 --> 03:46:17.360
No thanks, I'll take care of it as you.394103:46:17.520 --> 03:46:21.159
Wish that once you step in here, I would bring394203:46:21.239 --> 03:46:26.360
you food and water. Thank you, disaplacure. I love Americans.394303:46:26.879 --> 03:46:29.520
You are our guests that we are happy to see you.394403:46:33.520 --> 03:46:34.120
How do you feel?394503:46:34.639 --> 03:46:35.319
Oh much better?394603:46:35.399 --> 03:46:35.680
Thank you.394703:46:36.200 --> 03:46:38.079
I'm not so sure about that guy. I've heard about394803:46:38.079 --> 03:46:41.200
these Indians. They're not usually very fond of Americans or394903:46:41.239 --> 03:46:42.479
any strangers for that matter.395003:46:42.639 --> 03:46:44.000
Do you think he'll help us Gettorio?395103:46:44.159 --> 03:46:46.239
I know the way he talks. It must be about395203:46:46.239 --> 03:46:48.879
one hundred miles from here. Oh person, honey, it's none395303:46:48.879 --> 03:46:51.959
of my business. But that suitcase of yours?395403:46:52.559 --> 03:46:53.200
What about it?395503:46:53.399 --> 03:46:54.399
There's no sense kidding.395603:46:54.440 --> 03:46:55.120
I know what's in it.395703:46:56.479 --> 03:46:58.200
It's a good idea not to let these people know.395803:46:58.319 --> 03:47:00.159
They steal, not the way we do, but because they395903:47:00.200 --> 03:47:03.120
feel it's right. Americans are rich and anything they've got396003:47:03.200 --> 03:47:05.040
must be valuable, they see anything wrong in it.396103:47:05.239 --> 03:47:05.920
We've got a gun.396203:47:06.479 --> 03:47:09.159
They soon not have to use it. You want to396303:47:09.200 --> 03:47:17.440
tell me about the suitcase? No, okay, we let it396403:47:17.559 --> 03:47:20.959
go at that. They Stepan brought us food, and afterwards396503:47:21.040 --> 03:47:24.280
we met the rest of the village. They were very polite,396603:47:25.120 --> 03:47:28.600
too polite. I couldn't figure it out. Maybe I don't396703:47:28.680 --> 03:47:31.959
trust people, but nobody, nobody can be that happy to396803:47:32.000 --> 03:47:32.799
see a stranger.396903:47:34.159 --> 03:47:34.280
Now.397003:47:34.319 --> 03:47:35.920
They gave us a hut for the night, and after397103:47:36.040 --> 03:47:39.719
the dogs had quieted down, it got very quiet.397203:47:43.280 --> 03:47:46.879
You asleep? No, how's the head?397303:47:47.479 --> 03:47:47.799
Fine?397403:47:47.879 --> 03:47:48.200
Thanks?397503:47:50.440 --> 03:47:53.920
I'm sorry about this. I'm going to have to get397603:47:53.959 --> 03:47:57.319
out as soon as we can. These people, I don't know,397703:47:57.840 --> 03:48:01.239
they're just too happy. Something wrong. The way a fat397803:48:01.360 --> 03:48:02.159
friend looks.397903:48:01.920 --> 03:48:09.719
At you, maybe you thinks I'm pretty Yeah, maybe what398003:48:09.840 --> 03:48:10.639
are you gonna do about it?398103:48:11.639 --> 03:48:13.600
Look in the morning, we're going back to the plane.398203:48:13.639 --> 03:48:15.639
There's a chance I can do something to fix it up,398303:48:15.879 --> 03:48:16.440
just a chance.398403:48:17.840 --> 03:48:18.040
Yeah.398503:48:20.159 --> 03:48:23.559
Well, you were telling me something back at the cafe398603:48:23.639 --> 03:48:26.200
in Larrado, about me.398703:48:27.920 --> 03:48:32.760
Yeah I was, wasn't I. I. I guess you're not398803:48:32.879 --> 03:48:34.120
very scared about all this, are you.398903:48:34.280 --> 03:48:35.200
I do you want to think about it.399003:48:35.559 --> 03:48:36.680
You ought to be thinking about it.399103:48:38.399 --> 03:48:38.639
Deeck.399203:48:39.719 --> 03:48:43.159
Look we're in a tight spot. But I do maybe399303:48:44.600 --> 03:48:45.520
if we ever got out.399403:48:45.440 --> 03:48:50.520
Of here, then all right, high school boy, good night.399503:48:57.399 --> 03:48:59.280
The next morning is stay by and went with me399603:48:59.360 --> 03:49:02.639
back to the plane. Were still there, That is most399703:49:02.680 --> 03:49:06.159
of it. Of course, they'd taken everything movable from inside,399803:49:06.239 --> 03:49:10.000
strip the rubber tires off, stolen the prop. Now I399903:49:10.159 --> 03:49:11.559
know why I hadn't trusted them.400003:49:12.959 --> 03:49:13.399
What about it?400103:49:13.440 --> 03:49:19.079
As Steban eat sen your nice hospitality. I wanted to400203:49:19.120 --> 03:49:19.520
patch her.400303:49:19.520 --> 03:49:24.319
Up, senor some dirty thieves must have come out of400403:49:24.399 --> 03:49:26.159
the night and done this thing.400503:49:26.360 --> 03:49:26.959
Say that again.400603:49:27.760 --> 03:49:30.799
Surely you would not suspect it might people?400703:49:31.040 --> 03:49:33.440
Oh no, no, not your people.400803:49:34.040 --> 03:49:35.079
I'm so happy.400903:49:35.200 --> 03:49:37.840
Then, well, we'll have to run a couple of your mules.401003:49:37.879 --> 03:49:39.520
Maybe you'll guide us to a town that's got a401103:49:39.639 --> 03:49:41.000
bus or a railroad or something.401203:49:41.639 --> 03:49:43.760
You have money to pay for these things.401303:49:45.360 --> 03:49:45.840
I uh.401403:49:47.479 --> 03:49:49.799
Little, Yeah, we talk.401503:49:49.680 --> 03:49:53.520
About it maybe tomorrow. Now we go back to the village.401603:49:58.639 --> 03:50:01.120
We didn't talk about it tomorrow or the next day401703:50:01.239 --> 03:50:04.680
or the next it. Stayburn always made some excuse we401803:50:04.760 --> 03:50:07.440
weren't prisoners, But wherever we went there was always one401903:50:07.479 --> 03:50:11.120
of them watching just watching and smiling. But there was402003:50:11.159 --> 03:50:15.280
something about those smiles. It was on the fifth day402103:50:15.360 --> 03:50:17.840
that things really went wrong. The villagers had left our402203:50:17.879 --> 03:50:19.680
hut alone, and I guess we got a little careless402303:50:19.680 --> 03:50:22.479
about the suitcase. Phyllis and I had been up to402403:50:22.559 --> 03:50:24.440
a ridge four miles away to take a look at402503:50:24.440 --> 03:50:28.000
the country and our chances for hiking up. When we402603:50:28.079 --> 03:50:29.559
got back it was almost dark.402703:50:32.159 --> 03:50:35.959
The suitcase it's gone. Well, i'll be he's stolen it.402803:50:38.120 --> 03:50:43.200
You think it's funny, I'm super.402903:50:46.559 --> 03:50:47.159
What's that for?403003:50:48.079 --> 03:50:49.799
Don't you see how funny it is? At quarter of403103:50:49.840 --> 03:50:51.959
a million bucks stolen by Indians? Where are they going403203:50:52.000 --> 03:50:52.680
to spend it all?403303:50:52.760 --> 03:50:56.600
Want got to get it back? You help me, I'll403403:50:56.639 --> 03:51:01.520
share it with you. You will, Yes, listen, you might403503:51:01.559 --> 03:51:05.360
as well know. Remember the bank hold up in Chicago403603:51:05.479 --> 03:51:05.879
last year?403703:51:06.040 --> 03:51:08.399
Yeah, million bucks and securities.403803:51:08.520 --> 03:51:10.680
That suitcase is part of it. A friend of mine403903:51:10.719 --> 03:51:11.239
left it with me.404003:51:12.159 --> 03:51:13.040
He got out of the country.404103:51:13.559 --> 03:51:14.719
Now he's in Torreon.404203:51:15.040 --> 03:51:15.200
Yes.404303:51:16.680 --> 03:51:19.120
I was to hang around in small towns until things404403:51:19.159 --> 03:51:19.719
got quieter.404503:51:21.000 --> 03:51:24.000
When you came along. It gave me a chance. I404603:51:24.120 --> 03:51:27.440
was to meet him in Torreon. I don't care about him.404703:51:27.479 --> 03:51:33.360
Now it's you and me, Ah, we've got to get404803:51:33.360 --> 03:51:35.600
away from here and go to Mexico City.404903:51:35.959 --> 03:51:36.440
Anywhere.405003:51:36.559 --> 03:51:38.120
How far do you think we'd get in this country?405103:51:38.200 --> 03:51:39.159
We'll take their mules.405203:51:40.360 --> 03:51:43.120
We can try the stay bands the boy to find.405303:51:45.200 --> 03:51:45.680
You and me?405403:51:46.520 --> 03:51:50.319
Yes, yes, don't you know that?405503:51:50.440 --> 03:51:50.799
By now?405603:51:52.440 --> 03:52:01.000
Okay, Senor?405703:52:01.440 --> 03:52:04.840
What can I say that? No one, no one has405803:52:04.959 --> 03:52:07.079
been in your house? It is unthinkable.405903:52:07.440 --> 03:52:08.920
Look you know what this is.406003:52:10.559 --> 03:52:12.000
It's a good senor.406103:52:12.200 --> 03:52:12.440
Yeah.406203:52:12.879 --> 03:52:15.319
Only the rich can afford such things.406303:52:15.399 --> 03:52:17.760
I'm telling you around up that suitcase or else I406403:52:17.920 --> 03:52:20.840
tell your friends, I mean no, go ahead, and I'm406503:52:20.920 --> 03:52:21.479
very kind of the.406603:52:23.040 --> 03:52:27.559
Letter. You know, even a hermuttolus r.406703:52:33.280 --> 03:52:39.319
Well, they say they are very much afraid get made406803:52:39.319 --> 03:52:39.959
the suitcase.406903:52:40.600 --> 03:52:43.479
We've brought you here when you might have died in407003:52:43.600 --> 03:52:46.440
the desert. Surely you would not harm.407103:52:46.760 --> 03:52:48.719
That's a lot of double talking brothers here. That's still407203:52:48.719 --> 03:52:49.239
as blind.407303:52:50.799 --> 03:52:56.840
You have made a terrible accusation. We're very unhappy. Perhaps407403:52:56.840 --> 03:53:00.600
you would care to search the village that soup?407503:53:02.600 --> 03:53:08.520
Ah, what's the use? There wasn't any use. I couldn't407603:53:08.520 --> 03:53:11.600
shoot them down in cold blood, and you'd never find407703:53:11.639 --> 03:53:13.440
a suitcase. I also knew that we had to get407803:53:13.440 --> 03:53:15.959
out of there. We'd lost the money, but at least407903:53:16.000 --> 03:53:18.879
for the moment, we still had our lives. I asked408003:53:18.959 --> 03:53:20.200
a stay Ban for mules.408103:53:20.799 --> 03:53:25.399
Send you're a terrible thing has happened last night. The408203:53:25.559 --> 03:53:29.639
mules straight away. We have none left. It is a408303:53:29.879 --> 03:53:30.760
great loss.408403:53:30.959 --> 03:53:33.239
Oh I could call him a liar, and he was too,408503:53:33.360 --> 03:53:36.200
but I couldn't find the mules that decided it.408603:53:37.440 --> 03:53:38.239
I'm afraid of them.408703:53:38.360 --> 03:53:40.040
Yeah, I don't like the way stay Ban's been looking408803:53:40.079 --> 03:53:42.040
at that ring of yours. We're gonna have to make.408903:53:41.959 --> 03:53:43.920
It out on foot than staying here.409003:53:44.040 --> 03:53:47.639
If I only had that map. Oh well, I I409103:53:47.680 --> 03:53:50.239
don't think they'll try to stop us. We'll start tonight409203:53:50.280 --> 03:54:00.319
when it gets cool. You better get some sleep. I409303:54:00.399 --> 03:54:03.360
heard the villagers moving around outside the hut. I kept409403:54:03.440 --> 03:54:06.280
our gun ready, but nothing happened. And then about midnight409503:54:06.319 --> 03:54:08.799
we took a couple of skins of water, some tortillas409603:54:08.879 --> 03:54:13.959
and walked out of else's yellow Nobody said goodbye. Nobody409703:54:14.040 --> 03:54:16.760
tried to stop us, but as I looked back, I409803:54:16.840 --> 03:54:19.239
saw in the moonlight a group of people huddled together409903:54:20.239 --> 03:54:35.319
watching us. We walked for three days, desert, heat, night, cold.410003:54:36.959 --> 03:54:38.639
Then the water was gone.410103:54:42.000 --> 03:54:42.639
How are you doing?410203:54:44.200 --> 03:54:44.559
All right?410303:54:47.399 --> 03:54:50.959
Try not to think about it. We will we rest410403:54:51.040 --> 03:54:54.719
a minute, Hey, butter not not yet. Try to get410503:54:54.719 --> 03:54:56.600
to the hills. It's only a few miles.410603:54:58.200 --> 03:54:58.920
It'll be hollow.410703:55:00.040 --> 03:55:00.760
I save your bread.410803:55:05.000 --> 03:55:05.200
Huh.410903:55:06.959 --> 03:55:14.879
Don't move, do move. It's a helo monster, all right, now, fellas,411003:55:15.000 --> 03:55:18.040
don't move, just no move, and I'll blow his head off.411103:55:18.760 --> 03:55:36.479
I keep still, that's it, keeps. She lived on for411203:55:36.600 --> 03:55:43.479
about two hours, then died, raving cursing me, my money411303:55:43.520 --> 03:55:48.680
and herself. A week later I was picked up. That411403:55:48.840 --> 03:55:52.440
was six months ago. The Mexican police tried to find411503:55:52.440 --> 03:55:53.719
my plane, but I couldn't tell them.411603:55:53.639 --> 03:55:54.159
Where it was.411703:55:54.239 --> 03:56:02.520
They'd never even heard of El Cielo. So somewhere in Coahuila, Mexico,411803:56:02.600 --> 03:56:05.959
there's a village. Maybe if you go down there, you'll411903:56:06.000 --> 03:56:08.680
find a suitcase with a quarter of a million bucks,412003:56:09.799 --> 03:56:12.760
And maybe you'll just find kids cutting paper dolls out412103:56:12.799 --> 03:56:17.879
of one hundred dollars bills. Just crash your plane this412203:56:18.000 --> 03:56:22.920
set of Torreon, and then look for a round smiling412303:56:23.000 --> 03:56:27.079
Indian and his happy friends.412403:56:41.840 --> 03:56:45.040
Under the direction of Norman McDonald, Escape has brought you412503:56:45.239 --> 03:56:49.000
this side of Nowhere by Anthony Ellis William Conrad was412603:56:49.079 --> 03:56:52.399
starred as Deeck and Virginia Greg as Phyllis, with Don412703:56:52.520 --> 03:56:56.680
Diamond as Esteban. In the sporting cast were Lou Krugman412803:56:56.840 --> 03:57:00.920
and Ralph Moody. The special music for Escape was composed412903:57:00.959 --> 03:57:02.760
and conducted by Ivan det Mars.413003:57:08.559 --> 03:57:13.639
Well, my dear, the night is waning a bit, but413103:57:14.879 --> 03:57:20.399
we're not quite done just yet. How about one more413203:57:21.680 --> 03:57:26.520
just for good luck? We could all use some good luck?413303:57:27.399 --> 03:57:28.000
Am I right?413403:57:29.280 --> 03:57:29.520
Well?413503:57:30.600 --> 03:57:34.200
How put two more logs on the fire and get413603:57:34.319 --> 03:57:39.719
one more kettle of tea to steep. Let's shift our413703:57:39.840 --> 03:57:47.879
focus to things that are more beautiful. That sounds so nice, Yes,413803:57:48.920 --> 03:57:54.399
good good. I think I'm thinking what you are thinking.413903:57:55.120 --> 03:57:59.799
They are beautiful, but roses are for funeral.414003:58:01.319 --> 03:58:26.000
The CBS Radio Mystery Theater Presents come in. Welcome, I'm e. G. Marshall.414103:58:26.840 --> 03:58:30.280
Once again, it's my pleasure to tantalize you with a mystery,414203:58:31.079 --> 03:58:34.200
and not a who done it, but a so to speak,414303:58:34.639 --> 03:58:38.520
why done it? Frankly, I much prefer the why to414403:58:38.639 --> 03:58:42.000
the who done its, because they're just so darn difficult414503:58:42.040 --> 03:58:45.040
to solve if you manage to solve them at all.414603:58:45.920 --> 03:58:51.360
For example, why but no let rose Corbin, our heroin,414703:58:51.479 --> 03:58:52.680
ask the question, but.414803:58:52.799 --> 03:58:56.479
Why why would anyone commit murder because of this coat?414903:58:56.879 --> 03:58:59.840
I don't get a leather, Rose, It's just a plain, ordinary,415003:59:00.000 --> 03:59:01.479
imitation leopard skin coat.415103:59:01.559 --> 03:59:03.440
We know that, well do we?415203:59:04.799 --> 03:59:05.319
What do you mean?415303:59:06.360 --> 03:59:06.799
I mean?415403:59:07.000 --> 03:59:09.120
This coat has been the cause of more than one415503:59:09.200 --> 03:59:13.200
murder and unattempted murders. It may look plain and ordinary,415603:59:13.280 --> 03:59:17.920
but Rose, it can't be. Someone wants this coat, wants415703:59:17.959 --> 03:59:21.079
it badly enough to kill for it. And Rose, do415803:59:21.239 --> 03:59:21.760
me a favor?415903:59:21.840 --> 03:59:25.440
Will what say? Thank? Stop wearing it.416003:59:34.440 --> 03:59:39.399
Our mystery drama Roses Are for Funerals was written especially416103:59:39.520 --> 03:59:43.760
for the mystery theater by George Lowther and stars Carol Shelley.416203:59:44.760 --> 03:59:48.239
It is sponsored in part by Buick Motor Division and416303:59:48.479 --> 03:59:50.799
Uncle Den's Long Grain and Wild Rice.416403:59:51.319 --> 03:59:53.200
I'll be back shortly with Act one.416504:00:05.120 --> 04:00:07.280
Well, now, I'm not going to make the mistake the416604:00:07.360 --> 04:00:10.959
famous mystery writer Eve Philips Oppenheim once made and bet416704:00:11.040 --> 04:00:12.680
that you can't solve this mystery.416804:00:13.479 --> 04:00:15.639
You know what happened to him? You don't.416904:00:16.399 --> 04:00:19.520
Well, he bet his readers a large sum of money417004:00:19.719 --> 04:00:23.120
that they couldn't solve the mystery, and many of them417104:00:23.200 --> 04:00:26.760
did so. No bets tell you what I will do, though,417204:00:27.399 --> 04:00:31.319
I'll play fair as always and make sure you have417304:00:31.559 --> 04:00:32.440
all the clues.417404:00:32.600 --> 04:00:34.680
I have, every single one.417504:00:36.079 --> 04:00:38.239
I'll even tell you when you've got all the pieces417604:00:38.319 --> 04:00:41.159
you need to put the puzzle together. And nothing can417704:00:41.239 --> 04:00:45.479
be fairer than that, right, Okay, then let's start at417804:00:45.559 --> 04:00:49.719
Kennedy International Airport in a passenger lounge where a very417904:00:49.799 --> 04:00:53.639
attractive young lady named Rose Corbin sits patiently waiting for418004:00:53.760 --> 04:00:55.959
her cousin Hank North Pardle.418104:00:56.040 --> 04:00:59.879
Mademoiselle, Yes, please, man, introduce myself. My name is Simon418204:01:00.040 --> 04:01:03.440
Simone level. Yes, I must talk quickly, very fast, because418304:01:03.479 --> 04:01:05.440
my flight has already been announced for Paris.418404:01:05.799 --> 04:01:06.920
What is it you want to think?418504:01:06.959 --> 04:01:09.760
It's such a foolishness, mademoiselle, But I wish to buy418604:01:09.840 --> 04:01:14.600
your coat? He wished to buy my coat I'm wearing. Yes, please,418704:01:15.000 --> 04:01:16.239
it's a strange thing to ask.418804:01:16.319 --> 04:01:19.120
I know, it's very strange things to ask, especially when418904:01:19.159 --> 04:01:21.120
you're wearing the same kind of coat. No, no, no, no,419004:01:21.360 --> 04:01:24.280
it's not the same. Yours is real leopard skin of crosse,419104:01:24.319 --> 04:01:27.159
while mine is only imitation that different style too.419204:01:27.280 --> 04:01:29.319
But it lets me explain, and then I know you419304:01:29.559 --> 04:01:31.840
you will agree to my very strength request that you419404:01:31.879 --> 04:01:32.520
can explain.419504:01:32.639 --> 04:01:35.719
But I'm not selling you this coat. The problem is419604:01:35.799 --> 04:01:36.200
my sister.419704:01:36.319 --> 04:01:39.159
She's my twin sister in Paris, so the trepool, but419804:01:39.239 --> 04:01:41.000
she's she's very poor and she's married to a man419904:01:41.120 --> 04:01:42.399
who does not make much money.420004:01:42.600 --> 04:01:45.319
Sorry about but pretty Please listen.420104:01:45.799 --> 04:01:48.360
When we bought children, my sister and I always wore420204:01:48.440 --> 04:01:51.879
identical clothes. There was sales coats that everything was the same.420304:01:52.159 --> 04:01:55.000
And so today when I buy something like this coat420404:01:55.079 --> 04:01:56.879
I am wearing, which I bought here in the city,420504:01:57.239 --> 04:02:01.879

this scot I want it.420804:02:06.239 --> 04:02:08.079
I want it so much, and so I said to420904:02:08.159 --> 04:02:11.559
the salesperson, I will take this and another one just421004:02:11.760 --> 04:02:14.239
like it, of course from my sister. You understand, but421104:02:15.319 --> 04:02:17.840
there is not another one like it. So please quickly421204:02:17.959 --> 04:02:20.440

And how much did you pay for it? How much421404:02:24.000 --> 04:02:25.600
do you wish for it? I'm sorry, but I just421504:02:25.680 --> 04:02:30.399

the one souls and done.423404:03:15.959 --> 04:03:18.360
But if my cousin doesn't want to sell you, you423504:03:18.440 --> 04:03:20.879
don't want to do your own. Well, but I do423604:03:21.120 --> 04:03:21.520

I am Thomas. Thank you, Hank. I'm so glad you424504:03:42.319 --> 04:03:43.280
came along when you did.424604:03:43.520 --> 04:03:44.639
She gave you a hard time, huh.424704:03:44.959 --> 04:03:46.360
She tried to tear the coat off me.424804:03:46.440 --> 04:03:49.840
Even my lapel put a kind of crimp in your424904:03:49.920 --> 04:03:51.399
rose too, broke the stem.425004:03:51.799 --> 04:03:53.559
I might as well throw that away, and now it425104:03:53.680 --> 04:03:54.559
served its purpose.425204:03:54.680 --> 04:03:56.520
Well, there's no need for that. Look, I think I425304:03:56.639 --> 04:04:00.360
can repent it. I see say it's still pretty fresh.425404:04:00.840 --> 04:04:03.000
In fact, it's very fresh after an eight hour trip425504:04:03.040 --> 04:04:03.479
from London.425604:04:03.719 --> 04:04:05.680
I didn't get it in London. I got it here425704:04:05.799 --> 04:04:08.760
at the airport florist when I landed. When I told425804:04:08.799 --> 04:04:11.719
you i'd be wearing a rose so that you'd recognize me, well,425904:04:11.840 --> 04:04:14.120
I decided if the girl looked wilted, at least the426004:04:14.239 --> 04:04:15.000
rose didn't have to.426104:04:16.680 --> 04:04:20.200
Well there you are good as new, except for your426204:04:20.239 --> 04:04:24.120
torn lapel. Mother will take care of that. Okay, I've426304:04:24.159 --> 04:04:28.360
got your bags, so let's go. Fun City awaits you, cousin,426404:04:28.479 --> 04:04:30.319
rose hunk.426504:04:31.399 --> 04:04:35.520
She seems to be awaiting me too well, the French girl. See,426604:04:36.000 --> 04:04:38.840
she still hasn't gone through the flight gate. She's standing426704:04:38.920 --> 04:04:41.440
there looking at us as if well as if she426804:04:41.600 --> 04:04:44.079
was still hoping to buy this coat again.426904:04:44.200 --> 04:04:45.159
The world is full of nuts.427004:04:45.239 --> 04:04:45.520
Let's go.427104:04:53.719 --> 04:04:57.799
Well, yes, we have bridges in London, but nothing like this, Hank,427204:04:58.399 --> 04:04:59.879
the triborough you said.427304:05:00.079 --> 04:05:01.440
Yeah, we're over there.427404:05:01.479 --> 04:05:03.440
How's that for your first sight of New York City?427504:05:03.840 --> 04:05:05.319
Oh it's sensational.427604:05:05.520 --> 04:05:08.399
It's too bad you didn't arrive at night. That's skyline427704:05:08.559 --> 04:05:10.200
all lit up out of sight.427804:05:10.440 --> 04:05:14.040
I'm sure it is. Oh, Hank, I'm so grateful to427904:05:14.120 --> 04:05:16.319

States, letting you stay. Now happy to have you. In fact,428204:05:21.719 --> 04:05:23.680
now that I see you, I'm delighted to have you.428304:05:24.159 --> 04:05:27.840
I'm very glad. We're cousins twice removed. Why no, it428404:05:27.879 --> 04:05:28.879
makes us kissing cousins.428504:05:30.159 --> 04:05:34.920
I hope you're right about being second cousins. I mean, personally,428604:05:34.959 --> 04:05:38.000
I can't figure it out. Maybe you were that lawyer's428704:05:38.040 --> 04:05:39.239
braid of your essays?428804:05:39.440 --> 04:05:40.520
What is it?428904:05:40.639 --> 04:05:42.840
What's wrong? The car next to us?429004:05:43.440 --> 04:05:45.920
Hey? Watch it? Hey man, you're two dawn cold?429104:05:45.920 --> 04:05:48.799

If they don't, I got the idea they're pulling ahead,429604:05:56.719 --> 04:05:57.959
Thank Heaven, pulling.429704:05:57.760 --> 04:05:59.479
Ahead, but right in front of us?429804:06:00.120 --> 04:06:00.719

You're dirty, and don't go after him.431504:06:26.840 --> 04:06:27.559
He could be arms.431604:06:27.600 --> 04:06:29.440
You could be had getting back in his car.431704:06:30.120 --> 04:06:32.959

I know they did.432104:06:49.879 --> 04:06:51.959
And he the man who jumped from their car and432204:06:52.040 --> 04:06:54.799
ran back to us. He wanted my coat as badly432304:06:54.799 --> 04:06:56.040
as that woman at the airport.432404:06:56.399 --> 04:07:01.479
It's believable all together, unbelievable, incredible, that's what it is.432504:07:02.159 --> 04:07:02.559
You say.432604:07:02.840 --> 04:07:05.479
She was willing to pay one thousand dollars for it,432704:07:05.680 --> 04:07:07.840
imitation leopard skin, but she.432804:07:08.079 --> 04:07:10.760
Wanted it and had to have it for her twin sister.432904:07:11.200 --> 04:07:15.159
Well, I don't buy that, mother, this second attempt to433004:07:15.200 --> 04:07:17.239
get a hold of the coat, and by a guy433104:07:17.280 --> 04:07:18.920
who was ready to kill us in an accident if433204:07:18.959 --> 04:07:19.840
it turned out that way.433304:07:20.719 --> 04:07:24.479
No, there's something about that coat, something somebody wants.433404:07:24.719 --> 04:07:28.440
But what could anyone want for an imitation leopard skin coat?433504:07:29.399 --> 04:07:31.799
Would you buy it? Rose Harrod's in London?433604:07:31.959 --> 04:07:33.639
I wish I knew how to straighten out the mystery433704:07:33.639 --> 04:07:34.440
a Rose's coat.433804:07:34.680 --> 04:07:38.280
Oh, dear, you don't straighten out a mystery, You solve it.433904:07:38.639 --> 04:07:39.319
And I ought to know.434004:07:39.399 --> 04:07:42.479
I've read hundreds of them every year. I solve most434104:07:42.520 --> 04:07:46.000
of them too. Try solving this one. And Aunt Ruth well, as.434204:07:45.920 --> 04:07:49.280
A matter of fact, I've been thinking and I may434304:07:49.799 --> 04:07:51.040
have the answer you have.434404:07:51.680 --> 04:07:54.680
I just may have would bring me the coat, dear?434504:07:54.799 --> 04:07:56.440
Of course I won't be a minute.434604:07:57.840 --> 04:07:58.680
What do you think of her mother?434704:08:00.040 --> 04:08:03.719
She's beautiful and she's just so charming, so poised. She434804:08:03.840 --> 04:08:06.319
may not have much money done, but she does know434904:08:06.520 --> 04:08:07.920
how to wear clothes with.435004:08:08.000 --> 04:08:10.280
A figure like that. The clothes were her.435104:08:11.879 --> 04:08:14.559
Well, I don't mind saying she's exactly the sort of435204:08:14.639 --> 04:08:16.360
girl I hope you'd marry one day.435304:08:16.760 --> 04:08:19.000
Yeah, well, in that case, I'm glad she came over435404:08:19.280 --> 04:08:20.280
I'm glad you infind her.435504:08:20.440 --> 04:08:24.200
Oh that's why I invited her. Shere it his auntle,435604:08:25.040 --> 04:08:25.799
Thank you, my dear.435704:08:26.799 --> 04:08:30.239
Oh this rose you wore is wilted, poor Sish.435804:08:30.520 --> 04:08:33.799
No wonder it's really taken a battering. I suppose it435904:08:33.920 --> 04:08:34.879
just decided to give up.436004:08:36.159 --> 04:08:37.200
Mother. What are you doing now?436104:08:37.399 --> 04:08:38.760
You know my mother's wats them?436204:08:39.000 --> 04:08:39.600
Apply them.436304:08:40.120 --> 04:08:43.799
I'm examining the lining. I could be wrong, but it436404:08:43.879 --> 04:08:47.280
wouldn't surprise me. I's something we're hidden in this lining436504:08:47.440 --> 04:08:47.719
for what?436604:08:47.959 --> 04:08:51.239
For goodness sake? Well, you see, certainly not jewels, or436704:08:51.239 --> 04:08:52.799
i'd be able to feel them.436804:08:53.360 --> 04:08:55.520
You're going over that lining like an expert. Mother.436904:08:55.719 --> 04:08:59.719
Well that's what comes of being a mystery story addict. Right,437004:09:01.159 --> 04:09:02.120
not Heroin either.437104:09:02.479 --> 04:09:03.000
Heroine.437204:09:03.239 --> 04:09:06.479
Oh, it's been done, not anymore, though the customs people437304:09:06.559 --> 04:09:08.399
were onder that, Oh ages ago.437404:09:09.120 --> 04:09:10.360
I'll go now.437504:09:10.479 --> 04:09:13.399
If Heroin more concealed in the lining, i'd be able437604:09:13.440 --> 04:09:16.000
to feel that, you know, the crinkly, little glassy envelope.437704:09:16.040 --> 04:09:17.920
So there's nothing in in.437804:09:17.959 --> 04:09:19.959
The lining, nothing I can see anyway.437904:09:20.840 --> 04:09:21.000
Oh?438004:09:21.840 --> 04:09:22.920
Was it paper delivery deer?438104:09:24.200 --> 04:09:24.399
Yeah?438204:09:26.079 --> 04:09:27.879
Why are you looking at the front pages?438304:09:29.079 --> 04:09:29.200
Was it?438404:09:29.280 --> 04:09:31.639
You've just been shocked out of the year's growth.438504:09:32.440 --> 04:09:35.479
Because it could be I just have been.438604:09:37.639 --> 04:09:43.159
Listen to this headline reads woman murdered on Paris bound plane.438704:09:43.879 --> 04:09:43.920
What.438804:09:45.239 --> 04:09:49.319
A woman identified as Simon Leveaux of Paris, France.438904:09:49.680 --> 04:09:52.319
Uh, that's for woman who wanted to buy my coat.439004:09:52.479 --> 04:09:53.040
I know, I know.439104:09:53.319 --> 04:09:56.840
Just listen now, was found dead in her seat aboard439204:09:57.040 --> 04:10:01.239
flight two nineteen for Paris late this afternoon. An hour439304:10:01.280 --> 04:10:04.239
after take off, a hostess, Andrea Kleine, noticed that miss439404:10:04.360 --> 04:10:07.200
Lavaux was slumped in her seat and thought she was asleep.439504:10:07.959 --> 04:10:10.520
She secured a cushioned to place behind the young woman's head,439604:10:10.600 --> 04:10:13.399
and on doing so, discovered she was dead.439704:10:13.559 --> 04:10:14.200
Oh no.439804:10:15.440 --> 04:10:18.959
The further examination disclosed a deep knife wound in her439904:10:19.040 --> 04:10:22.680
left side. Since the flight was only an hour out440004:10:22.799 --> 04:10:25.840
from New York City, Hostess Cline recalls that a man440104:10:25.959 --> 04:10:28.559
was seated next to her just before takeoff was nowhere440204:10:28.600 --> 04:10:31.479
to be found on board following the discovery of the murder.440304:10:32.239 --> 04:10:34.520
What does this mean, Hank, I'll tell you one thing.440404:10:34.559 --> 04:10:38.360
It means mother, I'm going at police headquarters right now,440504:10:38.719 --> 04:10:42.559
and I'm taking that coat with me. Rose a woman440604:10:42.639 --> 04:10:45.559
who was willing to pay one thousand dollars for this440704:10:45.680 --> 04:10:48.479
piece of imitation. Leopard skin was murdered an hour or440804:10:48.559 --> 04:10:52.239
so later. Why a man neither of us ever saw440904:10:52.319 --> 04:10:54.760
before nearly killed us in a crash on the triborrow441004:10:54.840 --> 04:10:56.280
so he could get this coat off you?441104:10:56.920 --> 04:10:59.719
Why? Well we better find out why?441204:11:01.399 --> 04:11:06.440
Because yes, because I could be wrong, I hope I am,441304:11:07.239 --> 04:11:10.879
But this coat, it could be a death warrant.441404:11:10.959 --> 04:11:19.719
Rose, who's yours? Now?441504:11:19.879 --> 04:11:24.120
Of course you're thinking so Ruth North Hank's mother examined441604:11:24.159 --> 04:11:26.559
the lining of that coat and found nothing. So what441704:11:27.639 --> 04:11:32.520
obviously the coat contains something? Maybe it does, then again441804:11:32.600 --> 04:11:37.680
maybe it doesn't. In fact, to be absolutely truthful with you, no,441904:11:38.680 --> 04:11:42.760
why should I be. You have all the clues, use them.442004:11:43.559 --> 04:11:58.760
I'll be back shortly for act two. I'm sure most442104:11:58.840 --> 04:12:01.879
of you will recall the famous incident when Sherlock Holmes442204:12:01.920 --> 04:12:06.239
said to doctor Watson, consider Watson the curious behavior of442304:12:06.319 --> 04:12:10.399
the dog, and Watson said, but Holmes, the dog did442404:12:10.520 --> 04:12:17.200
nothing precisely, Watson, Holmes answered, precisely. Now that, my dear listeners,442504:12:17.360 --> 04:12:20.200
is precisely the sort of clue you now have in442604:12:20.280 --> 04:12:24.360
your possession, and, like Watson, must figure out for yourselves.442704:12:25.200 --> 04:12:28.600
I can almost hear Holmes saying, but consider the coat,442804:12:28.719 --> 04:12:33.479
Watson the imitation leopard skin coat, and Watson answering, but442904:12:33.680 --> 04:12:37.719
the coat is valueless Holmes, and Holmes nodding wisely as443004:12:37.799 --> 04:12:40.879
he replies, precisely, Watson, precisely.443104:12:41.920 --> 04:12:43.319
Now shall we go.443204:12:43.440 --> 04:12:54.639
On, Joe, Hello, contact ballistics. I'm fabrics. They're bullets and443304:12:54.760 --> 04:13:03.040
that's what you want to know about, Joe. Joe, listen. Granted,443404:13:03.239 --> 04:13:06.360
I have what you call a special flaff for forensic443504:13:06.520 --> 04:13:15.479
but okay, okay, I'll look into it. Yeah, yeah, leave443604:13:15.520 --> 04:13:15.840
it to me.443704:13:16.040 --> 04:13:16.200
Joe.443804:13:17.440 --> 04:13:32.319
Bye, Lieutenant Maxwell, show him in. Come in, mister North,443904:13:32.440 --> 04:13:40.040
Miss Corbyn, thank you, turn please coffee? No thanks Rose, No,444004:13:40.200 --> 04:13:40.479
thank you.444104:13:41.600 --> 04:13:46.559
Well here's your coat, Miss Corbyn. We found nothing, not444204:13:46.760 --> 04:13:47.079
the thing.444304:13:48.040 --> 04:13:48.319
Nothing.444404:13:49.280 --> 04:13:51.840
I leveled with you, mister North, when you brought this444504:13:52.000 --> 04:13:55.639
coat in the other night. I figured, well there's something444604:13:55.799 --> 04:13:59.280
and I'll find it. Like there had to be something.444704:14:00.079 --> 04:14:03.520
I mean, I mean, who offers one thousand clamps for444804:14:03.600 --> 04:14:07.719
an imitation leperdskin code then get yourself murdered an hour later?444904:14:08.559 --> 04:14:11.399
Who crashes his car against another guy's car on the445004:14:11.680 --> 04:14:15.200
tribe yet and tries to grab the coat off a dame?445104:14:16.000 --> 04:14:20.840
Who somebody that wants something in that coat, that's who.445204:14:21.600 --> 04:14:23.040
Yes, but you found nothing.445304:14:23.280 --> 04:14:26.319
I have personally put this code through every test.445404:14:26.440 --> 04:14:29.479
We know, every inch of it has been examined under445504:14:29.520 --> 04:14:32.959
the microscope, the X ray, the fluoroscope. We took the445604:14:33.120 --> 04:14:37.239
lining API and don't worry. We put it back together445704:14:37.319 --> 04:14:38.920
again better than before.445804:14:39.159 --> 04:14:41.840
It's beautiful and we'll look blank.445904:14:42.280 --> 04:14:43.360
I don't get it, Lieutenant.446004:14:43.399 --> 04:14:47.000
I mean, if it was just that woman, wouldn't to446104:14:47.079 --> 04:14:50.079
pay one thousand dollars for this coat. But a guy446204:14:50.200 --> 04:14:52.559
crashing his car in a mine on the bridge and446304:14:52.680 --> 04:14:56.920
trying to rip that coat off rose miss Corman. Lieutenant,446404:14:57.000 --> 04:14:58.760
has got to be something about this coat.446504:14:59.120 --> 04:15:01.399
And I felt the the same way myself, mister North.446604:15:01.479 --> 04:15:06.440
But there's nothing, No invisible markings, nothing hidden in the scenes,446704:15:06.600 --> 04:15:08.879
nothing between the layers of the fabric and the color.446804:15:09.319 --> 04:15:13.200
Nothing. So, to be honest with you, I don't get446904:15:13.239 --> 04:15:13.559
it either.447004:15:14.760 --> 04:15:16.639
Excuse me? Could I ask a question?447104:15:16.920 --> 04:15:17.319
Certainly?447204:15:17.959 --> 04:15:21.399
What about the woman Simon Lavaux? Have you found out447304:15:21.440 --> 04:15:22.520
why she was murdered?447404:15:22.959 --> 04:15:23.000
No?447504:15:23.319 --> 04:15:26.520
I checked a couple of times with homicide. Last time447604:15:26.600 --> 04:15:30.559
twenty minutes ago. We got nothing here on her. Us,447704:15:31.000 --> 04:15:34.479
the FBI, the tea boys. All right, now we're checking447804:15:34.639 --> 04:15:38.040
the CIA and enterpol Lake. It maybe have something, but447904:15:38.120 --> 04:15:39.040
will take a little time.448004:15:40.040 --> 04:15:45.079
Well, thanks, Lieutenant, you'll let us know if anything turns up.448104:15:45.840 --> 04:15:54.799
You'd better believe it. Mister North, Well, so much for448204:15:54.959 --> 04:15:58.120
the coat, ROAs that's that. I guess what would you448304:15:58.200 --> 04:15:58.479
like to do?448404:15:59.040 --> 04:16:00.719
No, don't you have to get that to your office?448504:16:01.200 --> 04:16:05.040
Well not until late this afternoon. I scheduled my day448604:16:05.079 --> 04:16:08.120
so I could spend most of it with you. See,448704:16:08.440 --> 04:16:11.360
I know, how about the Museum of Art. We could448804:16:11.399 --> 04:16:14.120
spend a few hours there, even have lunch if you'd448904:16:14.200 --> 04:16:14.360
like that.449004:16:14.680 --> 04:16:18.000
How wonderful, Hank. Only I don't like the idea of449104:16:18.079 --> 04:16:19.920
having to carry this coat around all day.449204:16:20.120 --> 04:16:21.799
Well you won't have to. I mean we'll check it449304:16:21.840 --> 04:16:27.040
at the museum. Okay, okay, Hey taxi Taxi.449404:16:32.159 --> 04:16:33.120
Enjoy sandwich row?449504:16:33.280 --> 04:16:36.559
Oh yes? I mean, oh, I'm so full. You Americans449604:16:36.600 --> 04:16:38.760
make much bigger sandwiches than we do in Britain.449704:16:39.600 --> 04:16:43.399
The American way everything on a big scale. Would you449804:16:43.440 --> 04:16:44.760
feel up looking at small pennies?449904:16:45.040 --> 04:16:45.280
Hank?450004:16:45.440 --> 04:16:48.639
Would you mind? I really don't two hours walking around450104:16:48.639 --> 04:16:49.799
those galleries upstairs?450204:16:49.879 --> 04:16:53.280
Sure? Sure you're tired, I'll tell you what. I'll drop450304:16:53.319 --> 04:16:55.159
you off of home and then head down town to450404:16:55.239 --> 04:16:55.600
my office.450504:16:55.879 --> 04:16:56.879
Are you sure you don't mind?450604:16:57.360 --> 04:16:57.520
Oh?450704:16:57.840 --> 04:16:58.840
To be honest, bros, I do.450804:16:59.719 --> 04:17:01.319
I want to spend as much time with you as450904:17:01.319 --> 04:17:01.600
I can.451004:17:02.159 --> 04:17:03.520
You want to stop and look at the Greek and451104:17:03.600 --> 04:17:07.000
Roman sarcophagus sarcophagride tombs.451204:17:08.680 --> 04:17:11.000
No, I've seen enough. Let's just get my coat from451304:17:11.000 --> 04:17:13.120
the checkroom and go home where I can rest these451404:17:13.200 --> 04:17:13.760
aching feet.451504:17:13.879 --> 04:17:14.159
Whatever.451604:17:14.239 --> 04:17:16.680
You say, Hey, there's something going on.451704:17:16.760 --> 04:17:19.719
Over there, I should say so right, there's a big451804:17:19.840 --> 04:17:23.360
crowd around the checkrooms police. Thank what do you suppose451904:17:23.399 --> 04:17:23.959
this happens?452004:17:24.040 --> 04:17:24.360
I don't know.452104:17:24.799 --> 04:17:26.440
I'm gonna have a rough time though, getting through that452204:17:26.520 --> 04:17:27.799
crowd to reclaim your coat.452304:17:28.840 --> 04:17:31.440
Excuse me, Yeah, you know what's going on over there?452404:17:31.559 --> 04:17:34.479
There's been a murder. I think we're a murder robbery452504:17:34.600 --> 04:17:37.639
or a theft or whatever it's called. Anyway, somebody stole452604:17:37.680 --> 04:17:42.079
a colt. Yeah, that's what I heard. You were. You452704:17:42.120 --> 04:17:44.120
don't have to know what kind of coats?452804:17:44.559 --> 04:17:48.559
Yeah, I think they said at somebody said imitation.452904:17:53.479 --> 04:17:56.680
Another cup rows. Thank you for getting to like coffee?453004:17:57.280 --> 04:17:59.200
Or is that another way of saying you don't care453104:17:59.280 --> 04:17:59.879
for my tea?453204:18:00.120 --> 04:18:00.239
Oh?453304:18:00.440 --> 04:18:03.879
No, no tea, your coffee when you when you finish that,453404:18:04.040 --> 04:18:05.840
I think you'd be smart to stretch out for a while,453504:18:05.959 --> 04:18:06.719
have yourself a nap.453604:18:06.799 --> 04:18:08.360
I mean, if you've had kind of a rough day,453704:18:09.000 --> 04:18:11.959
tiring anyhow, at least you're rid of that coat once453804:18:12.040 --> 04:18:13.879
and for all. Now you don't have to worry about453904:18:13.959 --> 04:18:20.319
that anymore. But you don't, dear, I don't well, I454004:18:20.440 --> 04:18:23.040
just don't know. I'm I'm not so sure.454104:18:23.280 --> 04:18:23.760
What do you mean.454204:18:24.600 --> 04:18:28.840
I have sort of, oh, I don't know, a feeling454304:18:29.040 --> 04:18:32.159
that what happened at the museum today isn't the end454404:18:32.239 --> 04:18:35.079
of all this for me? I mean, oh, now, now454504:18:35.159 --> 04:18:38.639
it's nothing more than nerves my day. It's just nerve, perhaps,454604:18:38.760 --> 04:18:43.319
but I don't think so. Maybe it's the mystery of454704:18:43.399 --> 04:18:47.040
the thing, not knowing why someone wanted that coat badly454804:18:47.159 --> 04:18:51.440
enough to kill for it, murder for it looks like454904:18:51.520 --> 04:18:52.079
we'll never know.455004:18:52.239 --> 04:18:52.360
Now.455104:18:52.799 --> 04:18:55.440
Well, look it's it's over now and we can forget it,455204:18:55.520 --> 04:18:58.639
as mother says. And now I few ladies will excuse.455304:18:58.360 --> 04:18:59.680
Me, well where are you going to?455404:18:59.799 --> 04:19:00.719
The Oh?455504:19:00.799 --> 04:19:04.159
But this late in the afternoons, after four, and the455604:19:04.239 --> 04:19:06.319
brief I wanted to finish up at three is still455704:19:06.360 --> 04:19:07.280
waiting to be finished.455804:19:07.799 --> 04:19:10.559
So Hank, you work too hard. Couldn't it wait until tomorrow?455904:19:10.600 --> 04:19:11.600
Don't forget it's the theater.456004:19:11.719 --> 04:19:14.879
Tell me back at six thirty the latest, so i'll456104:19:14.920 --> 04:19:15.159

Hello, you missed it off? Yes, Lieutenant Maxwell, Yeah, I456304:19:22.280 --> 04:19:24.280
tried you at your office. They said I might find456404:19:24.319 --> 04:19:27.120

Hour or so.456604:19:28.200 --> 04:19:32.079
Well, if it's important, I think it is. I've got456704:19:32.159 --> 04:19:35.040
the answer. Anyhow, I think I've got the answer to456804:19:35.120 --> 04:19:37.879
our little mystery. I want to come over and check456904:19:37.959 --> 04:19:38.200
it out.457004:19:38.319 --> 04:19:39.959
Yeah, well sure, but what is the answer?457104:19:40.520 --> 04:19:40.920
One thing?457204:19:41.000 --> 04:19:41.479
Missed it off?457304:19:41.680 --> 04:19:44.159
We got a report from the tires brant your interval457404:19:44.680 --> 04:19:45.879

La Po woman?457604:19:46.600 --> 04:19:47.440
Yeah, what about her?457704:19:48.000 --> 04:19:50.000
He was a foreign agent, one of the higher ups457804:19:50.040 --> 04:19:55.639
in aspiring Aspiring. Yeah, now, uh, the way I figured it.457904:19:55.760 --> 04:19:59.479

Lieutenant Maxwell says Simon Nvaux was a foreign agent part458204:20:03.559 --> 04:20:04.239
of Aspiring.458304:20:04.639 --> 04:20:05.040
Heavens.458404:20:06.000 --> 04:20:09.479
Hello, alms, yes you, lieutenant.458504:20:09.719 --> 04:20:12.319

Well, i'll be at your place and i'll say half458704:20:15.239 --> 04:20:15.559
an hour.458804:20:16.040 --> 04:20:18.200
Wait a minute, what's the answer to the mystery?458904:20:18.399 --> 04:20:18.840
I say?459004:20:18.879 --> 04:20:21.040
In half an hour, Lieutenant, don't leave us.459104:20:21.040 --> 04:20:25.559
Hanging like, well, I'll be or what was that all459204:20:25.639 --> 04:20:28.200
at about? Hank Well Maxwell says he has the answer459304:20:28.239 --> 04:20:29.920
to the mystery, or he thinks he has. He'll be459404:20:29.959 --> 04:20:31.520
over here in half an hour to check it out.459504:20:31.920 --> 04:20:32.840
What is the answer?459604:20:32.959 --> 04:20:33.600
He didn't tell me?459704:20:34.280 --> 04:20:39.000
He got called away on something he had to hang up. Well,459804:20:40.760 --> 04:20:43.120
what are you calling the office? That brief will have459904:20:43.200 --> 04:20:44.120
to wait until tomorrow?460004:20:44.120 --> 04:20:44.280
On that?460104:20:49.520 --> 04:20:51.600
Well, where is he?460204:20:51.959 --> 04:20:53.559
Give him time? Mother, give him time.460304:20:53.639 --> 04:20:55.760
But that is nearly six o'clock. He should have been460404:20:55.799 --> 04:20:57.840
here at least an hour ago. And we are going460504:20:57.920 --> 04:20:59.600
to the theater tonight, remember.460604:20:59.399 --> 04:21:00.600
Yeah, well we may have to skip that.460704:21:00.760 --> 04:21:03.760
I'm so sorry, Aunt Ruth's all right, my dear, It's460804:21:03.799 --> 04:21:04.559
not your fault.460904:21:04.639 --> 04:21:05.680
Somehow I feel it is.461004:21:06.040 --> 04:21:06.319
Rose.461104:21:06.399 --> 04:21:08.159
How could it possibly be your fault?461204:21:08.440 --> 04:21:10.719
Well, I'm the one who bought that silly coated Harrod's,461304:21:10.719 --> 04:21:12.680
and if I hadn't bought it, none of this would461404:21:12.680 --> 04:21:15.760
have happened, not to you, perhaps, but certainly to someone461504:21:15.840 --> 04:21:17.559
else if someone did buy it.461604:21:17.959 --> 04:21:20.040
And for all we know, if you hadn't bought it,461704:21:20.440 --> 04:21:22.440
it could still be hanging on the rack in London.461804:21:22.600 --> 04:21:25.920
Yes, well, I wish it were. It isn't nerves aren't ruth.461904:21:25.959 --> 04:21:28.719
It's it's knowing that because of that coat, two people462004:21:28.840 --> 04:21:31.600
were murdered. Hank and I came close to death, and462104:21:31.719 --> 04:21:36.000
that car crash, and well it's just too m I462204:21:36.159 --> 04:21:37.120
couldn't agree more.462304:21:37.840 --> 04:21:39.559
Ah, this must be Lieutenant Maxwell.462404:21:39.600 --> 04:21:46.680
Okay, okay, I'm coming, lieutenant, your lieutenant.462504:21:47.000 --> 04:21:47.079
And.462604:21:48.559 --> 04:21:53.360
Oh my, heavens, hanky quick he's come happy an ambulance.462704:21:53.639 --> 04:21:53.959
Thank you.462804:21:54.079 --> 04:21:54.600
She hurt that.462904:21:57.280 --> 04:22:00.280
All right? Let me get him on the couch, get463004:22:00.319 --> 04:22:05.239
his coat on, and sure, no, late, that's what you think.463104:22:05.399 --> 04:22:12.399
That's what rose sandiches. Yes, listen, look you better not talk.463204:22:12.760 --> 04:22:15.799
Just want to get these things off your sorde. Oh463304:22:15.959 --> 04:22:20.360
my dear, I've never seen so much blessed. Yes, yes, lieutenant.463404:22:20.680 --> 04:22:23.440
The guy that did this, how did he do it?463504:22:24.600 --> 04:22:33.639
Not much time? She rose life and danger roses life463604:22:34.239 --> 04:22:34.719
in danger?463704:22:35.040 --> 04:22:41.440
Yes, spandards and some did.463804:22:42.719 --> 04:22:43.040
Did this?463904:22:43.840 --> 04:22:47.840
Must I know, I know?464004:22:48.680 --> 04:22:49.680
And the.464104:22:52.399 --> 04:23:02.000
One only one that knows me My, it's bugg not464204:23:02.239 --> 04:23:09.360

on it.464404:23:10.840 --> 04:23:13.559
What is the answer, lieutenant.464504:23:13.639 --> 04:23:15.040
The coat that.464604:23:16.520 --> 04:23:17.600
That not?464704:23:17.799 --> 04:23:18.399
What do you mean?464804:23:18.559 --> 04:23:18.600
Not?464904:23:19.360 --> 04:23:19.399
Not?465004:23:19.680 --> 04:23:19.719
What?465104:23:21.040 --> 04:23:21.559
Lieutenant?465204:23:23.520 --> 04:23:33.799
Oh you see, yes, another death. We never see the465304:23:33.959 --> 04:23:34.319
end of this.465404:23:35.799 --> 04:23:38.840
Why are you looking at me like that? Thank, aunt Ruth?465504:23:39.840 --> 04:23:40.319
What is it?465604:23:40.840 --> 04:23:41.239
Tell me?465704:23:42.440 --> 04:23:46.520
He said your life's in danger now mine?465804:23:47.520 --> 04:23:49.639
Yes, dear, but it can't be.465904:23:50.399 --> 04:23:51.159
How can it be?466004:23:51.319 --> 04:23:53.879
I haven't got the coat anymore?466104:23:54.319 --> 04:23:57.879
You know what they've got the coat, they've got what466204:23:58.000 --> 04:23:58.639
they were after?466304:23:59.280 --> 04:24:00.479
Why would they kill me?466404:24:01.319 --> 04:24:07.159
I don't know, but I'd better find out, Honey, I466504:24:07.319 --> 04:24:08.879
damn well better find out.466604:24:15.159 --> 04:24:17.079
He'd certainly better do just that.466704:24:17.559 --> 04:24:21.399
Or Rose Corbin, the very attractive young woman Hank North466804:24:21.440 --> 04:24:24.280
has fallen in love with, may not live much longer.466904:24:25.280 --> 04:24:26.719
But how can he find.467004:24:26.520 --> 04:24:30.319
Out the answer to this battling mystery? Where does one start?467104:24:31.040 --> 04:24:34.639
What does one do? Where would you start?467204:24:35.559 --> 04:24:36.280
What would you do?467304:24:37.840 --> 04:24:52.879
I'll be back shortly for act three. Well, now let's467404:24:52.879 --> 04:24:56.600
see where we are. Rose Corbin arrived in the United467504:24:56.639 --> 04:25:01.040
States from London, England, wearing an imitation leopard skin coat.467604:25:01.920 --> 04:25:05.600
On her arrival, a woman named Simon LeVaux tried to467704:25:05.719 --> 04:25:08.719
buy the coat, and when Rose refused to sell, tried467804:25:08.799 --> 04:25:12.200
to take it away from her. Later, Simon LeVaux was467904:25:12.360 --> 04:25:16.079
murdered aboard the plane taking her to Paris. Since then,468004:25:16.600 --> 04:25:19.760
the coat seems to have triggered two more murders, that468104:25:19.879 --> 04:25:22.840
of a checkroom attendant at the Museum of Art, at468204:25:22.879 --> 04:25:25.600
which time the murderer made off with the coat, and468304:25:25.959 --> 04:25:29.639
as we heard only minutes ago, that of Lieutenant Maxwell468404:25:29.879 --> 04:25:32.520
of the police. All right, Rose, let's go over it468504:25:32.920 --> 04:25:35.959
and over it. And we've gone over it and over468604:25:36.159 --> 04:25:40.079
I know, but Maxwell said your life is in danger now,468704:25:40.200 --> 04:25:44.120
and Rose, if anything happened to you, well it isn't468804:25:44.200 --> 04:25:46.760
going to not if I can help it. You bought468904:25:46.920 --> 04:25:49.440
the coat in Harron's the day before you took off469004:25:49.479 --> 04:25:52.920
to visit us here. Yeah, and no one accostajew at469104:25:53.000 --> 04:25:55.600
Heathrow before you boarded the plane or on the plane.469204:25:55.719 --> 04:25:57.479
Nobody even mentioned the coat.469304:25:57.680 --> 04:26:01.360
No, no one. But minute you got off the plane469404:26:01.399 --> 04:26:04.360
at Kennedy International this, Simon Levau.469504:26:04.600 --> 04:26:07.040
Well, not the minute I got off the plane. First469604:26:07.200 --> 04:26:09.680
I went to the florist to buy the flower the469704:26:09.799 --> 04:26:12.280
rose I said i'd wear so you'd recognize me. But469804:26:12.520 --> 04:26:15.239
just after that she came up to me and asked469904:26:15.360 --> 04:26:17.399
to buy the coat and got very upset when I470004:26:17.440 --> 04:26:20.559
said I wouldn't sell it. Im practically began to tear470104:26:20.639 --> 04:26:21.079
it off me.470204:26:21.280 --> 04:26:24.559
I just don't kid it we know there was nothing470304:26:24.639 --> 04:26:27.520
hidden in the coat, no invisible message.470404:26:27.239 --> 04:26:31.600
No nothing. But we do know that Simone Leavaux was470504:26:31.639 --> 04:26:32.319
a foreign agent.470604:26:32.360 --> 04:26:34.920
Now there's just got to be some connection between the470704:26:35.000 --> 04:26:36.879

government men down there, disguised as airport attendants. A minute490204:37:13.200 --> 04:37:17.240
they disembrot there they've wrote the landing platform in place.490304:37:17.680 --> 04:37:18.520
The drawer is opening.490404:37:19.240 --> 04:37:22.279
Man whoever he discovers that this isn't he, don't worry.490504:37:22.319 --> 04:37:23.400
Everything has been arranged.490604:37:24.040 --> 04:37:27.400
There they are rose and the man is the captain490704:37:27.479 --> 04:37:29.880
right behind them, and they're walking right into the arms.490804:37:32.639 --> 04:37:42.880
He put up a fight. It was as simple as490904:37:42.919 --> 04:37:43.400
that rose.491004:37:44.080 --> 04:37:46.759
The captain turned the plane around and circled Kennedy International491104:37:46.840 --> 04:37:49.279
for a few hours of pretending you were flying to Heathrow.491204:37:49.479 --> 04:37:50.240
Who fooled me?491304:37:50.520 --> 04:37:51.159
But not him?491404:37:51.799 --> 04:37:54.680
Halfway down the steps of that landing platform, he realized491504:37:54.680 --> 04:37:57.840
he's foolishly tried to shoot things out. Oh, I know,491604:37:57.959 --> 04:38:00.080
I suppose I ought to feel sorry.491704:37:59.840 --> 04:38:02.279
For It's just it's understandable.491804:38:02.520 --> 04:38:05.840
It's all just unbelievable when I think that because I491904:38:05.959 --> 04:38:08.560
said i'd wear a rose and bought one at the airport.492004:38:08.639 --> 04:38:09.639
When I arrived, there'll be.492104:38:09.680 --> 04:38:12.360
Attendant at the florist shop, an agent who'd been planted492204:38:12.400 --> 04:38:15.560
there would never have mistaken you for Simon le'vau and492304:38:16.119 --> 04:38:18.560
pinned that rose to your lapel with well, I guess492404:38:18.599 --> 04:38:19.959
you could call it the fatal pin.492504:38:20.200 --> 04:38:22.959
You know, I'm still not sure I've got this straight, dear.492604:38:23.080 --> 04:38:25.840
Let me see, she on her way to Paris was492704:38:25.919 --> 04:38:28.919
to go into the florist shop wearing a leopard skin492804:38:29.040 --> 04:38:32.119
coat and ask for a rose. Right now, That was492904:38:32.200 --> 04:38:37.240
the agent's cue to use the what you called the493004:38:37.319 --> 04:38:38.639
fatal pin exactly.493104:38:39.119 --> 04:38:39.319
See.493204:38:39.520 --> 04:38:42.360
Amiel Tenko knew he was under surveillance and so he493304:38:42.479 --> 04:38:44.200
had a problem, I mean, how to get that top493404:38:44.279 --> 04:38:45.799
secret information out of the country.493504:38:46.040 --> 04:38:48.159
So he had it engraved on the head of a pin.493604:38:48.959 --> 04:38:50.880
You know, Aunt Ruth, the ware they engraved the Lord's493704:38:50.880 --> 04:38:54.000
prayer on a pin head. The trouble began when the493804:38:54.119 --> 04:38:57.000
agent thought that I was simun Levo on her way493904:38:57.040 --> 04:39:00.240
to Paris wearing an almost identical leopard skin coat.494004:39:00.319 --> 04:39:03.080
To mind, and naturally, when Rose threw the rose away494104:39:03.240 --> 04:39:06.000
after at Wilton, she kept the pimp and used it494204:39:06.080 --> 04:39:08.319
again last night, the pin on the nosegay I gave her.494304:39:09.560 --> 04:39:13.119
It's all over, and thank Heaven it is Rose. How494404:39:13.159 --> 04:39:17.400
about some dinner. I'm starving, but before we go, I494504:39:17.479 --> 04:39:19.720
am going to change out of this suit into address,494604:39:21.080 --> 04:39:27.319
Oh and Hank, Dear, yes, weetheart, no flowers please, not494704:39:27.560 --> 04:39:31.759
for a long long time, no flowers please.494804:39:38.959 --> 04:39:43.639
And so as you see, like all good, seemingly insoluble mysteries,494904:39:44.080 --> 04:39:48.400
the solution to roses are for funerals was very simple. Indeed,495004:39:49.200 --> 04:39:51.959
in fact, I even gave you a clue in the title.495104:39:52.520 --> 04:40:11.279
What could be fairer than that? I'll be back shortly. Mysteries,495204:40:11.479 --> 04:40:15.159
it seems to me, are like a magic show. Like495304:40:15.279 --> 04:40:19.759
the magician, the author shows you everything, but directs your495404:40:19.840 --> 04:40:25.319
attention elsewhere. Perhaps I should say, misdirects it. So be495504:40:25.479 --> 04:40:29.040
on your guard next time. Oh, yes, there will be495604:40:29.119 --> 04:40:32.520
a next time. And although I always play one hundred495704:40:32.919 --> 04:40:36.200
fair with you, I warn you now I'll do all495804:40:36.279 --> 04:40:37.959
I can to mislead you.495904:40:39.159 --> 04:40:39.840
Can you blame me?496004:40:41.000 --> 04:40:45.479
Our cast included Carol Shelley, Tony Roberts, Mildred Clinton and496104:40:45.680 --> 04:40:46.319
Dan Acko.496204:40:47.119 --> 04:40:50.279
The entire production was under the direction of Hyman Brown.496304:40:52.400 --> 04:40:57.680
Well, my dear, we've went quite a distance here tonight,496404:40:58.520 --> 04:41:03.319
and now the sun is teasing its return to dominance.496504:41:04.520 --> 04:41:07.080
It's time for you to head home and for me496604:41:07.279 --> 04:41:10.799
to head to well wherever it is I come from.496704:41:10.959 --> 04:41:14.759
But not for long as the veil will be thinner496804:41:15.080 --> 04:41:19.680
in no time, and soon it will be our time.496904:41:20.759 --> 04:41:24.959
O what's that? Oh no, no, no, You're a dear friend,497004:41:26.000 --> 04:41:29.279
nothing to be concerned about. But when I see you497104:41:29.439 --> 04:41:36.319
here again, hopefully next week, well who knows what could happen.497204:41:37.840 --> 04:41:41.720
But until then, as you make your way home through497304:41:41.840 --> 04:41:47.959
the darkened streets, as you enter your beautiful bedroom and497404:41:48.119 --> 04:41:52.479
lay your head on that pillow, take one moment and497504:41:52.680 --> 04:42:02.560
be thankful for what you have, and I'll be seeing you, amomma.497604:42:02.919 --> 04:42:11.279
The beginning, the romping, by, the grumbling, the probing, the497704:42:11.400 --> 04:42:12.479
wombling climate497804:42:12.639 --> 04:42:14.599
