Unknown Broadcast | Love and Death on the Air: Four Old-Time Radio Horror Stories

Unknown Broadcast | Love and Death on the Air: Four Old-Time Radio Horror Stories
Unknown Broadcast slips into the Weekly Spooky feed again—bringing you old-time radio horror stories, classic OTR suspense, and vintage radio thrills where love curdles into obsession, reputations become weapons, and the truth arrives late… if it arrives at all.

Tonight’s broadcast features four chilling tales:
  • 🎭 A Matter of Love and Death — A celebrity collides with someone unknown… and a “romance” turns into a trap with the spotlight as the knife.
  • 🔥 Love, Honor, or Murder — When the line between devotion and violence vanishes, every motive looks like a confession.
  • 🫀 The Heart of Ethan Brand — A descent into the weird and uncanny, digging past the polite surface until something inhuman starts beating back.
  • 🕯️ The Lovely Look — The Whistler guides you into a story where appearances aren’t just deceiving… they’re dangerous.

If you’re searching for OTR horror, radio suspense, classic mystery theater, and old radio dramas with a dark edge—this one’s for you.

Some broadcasts end when the music fades… but we just wait for the next quiet room to find you.

00:00:11.439 --> 00:00:15.960
Ah, so good to see you, my dear. Oh what's

2
00:00:16.039 --> 00:00:22.519
that well, I'm so happy to hear it. Please relax,

3
00:00:23.399 --> 00:00:27.039
take a load off. We have so much to get

4
00:00:27.039 --> 00:00:32.320
into tonight, so much to enjoy, so much to fear.

5
00:00:33.560 --> 00:00:40.359
After all, is there anything more terrified than matters of

6
00:00:40.399 --> 00:00:43.200
the heart? I think not.

7
00:00:44.280 --> 00:00:44.799
No.

8
00:00:44.799 --> 00:00:51.119
No, Even the most casual of acquaintances with the heart

9
00:00:51.799 --> 00:01:00.679
is serious, so serious, almost as if it's always, with exception,

10
00:01:01.880 --> 00:01:05.799
a matter of life and dad.

11
00:01:24.680 --> 00:01:25.120
Come in.

12
00:01:27.519 --> 00:01:29.480
Welcome, I'm e. G.

13
00:01:29.719 --> 00:01:30.159
Marshall.

14
00:01:31.680 --> 00:01:36.439
The story to follow concerns a celebrity. A celebrity is

15
00:01:36.439 --> 00:01:39.480
a person who is famous in any way at all,

16
00:01:40.159 --> 00:01:46.280
though usually favorably, a person who is renowned or sometimes

17
00:01:46.959 --> 00:01:48.200
only notorious.

18
00:01:49.280 --> 00:01:50.280
What happens when a.

19
00:01:50.239 --> 00:01:55.879
Famed, noted individual meets another one who is obscure and unknown.

20
00:01:56.959 --> 00:02:00.040
That is the subject of our drama, A Matter of

21
00:02:00.079 --> 00:02:04.920
Love and Death. Our mystery drama A Matter of Love

22
00:02:05.120 --> 00:02:09.159
and Death, written especially for the Mystery Theater by Elspatheric

23
00:02:09.639 --> 00:02:13.919
and stars Lois Middleton. It is sponsored in part by

24
00:02:14.000 --> 00:02:17.479
True Value Hardware Stores and Buick Mortar Division.

25
00:02:18.280 --> 00:02:20.360
I'll be back shortly with that que.

26
00:02:21.240 --> 00:02:24.039
You know, I just thought of something, Yeah, what's that well,

27
00:02:24.159 --> 00:02:24.639
over two.

28
00:02:24.599 --> 00:02:27.360
Hundred and fifty thousand people have already bought nineteen seventy

29
00:02:27.360 --> 00:02:28.159
six buicks.

30
00:02:28.280 --> 00:02:30.960
Yeah, that's a lot of people. Yeah. Well, if you

31
00:02:31.039 --> 00:02:32.159
got all those people.

32
00:02:31.879 --> 00:02:36.159
Together, they probably disagree on nearly everything religion, politics, sports.

33
00:02:36.199 --> 00:02:39.479
I mean, people disagree on all that stuff, right, and

34
00:02:39.560 --> 00:02:42.319
yet all those people, over two hundred and fifty thousand

35
00:02:42.360 --> 00:02:43.719
of them agree on viewicks.

36
00:02:44.360 --> 00:02:46.080
I think that's really socially significant.

37
00:02:46.120 --> 00:02:47.240
Are you no?

38
00:02:48.120 --> 00:03:03.759
Bwick dedicated to the free spirit in just about everyone.

39
00:03:03.919 --> 00:03:07.560
I can remember a day perhaps some of you can too,

40
00:03:08.039 --> 00:03:11.039
when a man became a celebrity for a short while

41
00:03:11.560 --> 00:03:14.560
by sitting on a flag bowle. Then there was a

42
00:03:14.599 --> 00:03:20.080
fetching celebrity named Willy Sutton who robbed banks because, as

43
00:03:20.120 --> 00:03:24.360
he said, that's where the money is. Most people felt

44
00:03:24.439 --> 00:03:28.639
rather badly when, after a long career, Willie was shot

45
00:03:28.759 --> 00:03:32.680
down near a police station. A tennis player named Gussie

46
00:03:32.759 --> 00:03:37.360
Moran became a celebrity because though she played an excellent game,

47
00:03:38.039 --> 00:03:42.479
she caught public fancy by wearing ruffled panties underneath her

48
00:03:42.520 --> 00:03:46.680
tennis dress. Your guess is as good as mine as

49
00:03:46.719 --> 00:03:48.560
to what makes the celebrity.

50
00:03:49.639 --> 00:03:52.639
Well, I'm I'm checking out side. See you tomorrow.

51
00:03:53.879 --> 00:03:55.520
Oh, how could I see somebody?

52
00:03:56.240 --> 00:03:56.319
Like?

53
00:03:56.360 --> 00:03:56.560
Who?

54
00:03:56.639 --> 00:03:57.000
Miss?

55
00:03:57.360 --> 00:03:59.080
I don't know anybody?

56
00:03:59.159 --> 00:04:01.759
Well, try to speaking to the sogeant. He'll help you.

57
00:04:01.919 --> 00:04:04.840
Sergeant Callahan at the desk over there. Oh you want

58
00:04:04.879 --> 00:04:05.240
to see me?

59
00:04:05.319 --> 00:04:08.000
Miss I've got to talk to somebody.

60
00:04:08.199 --> 00:04:13.719
Come right over here, like Callahan. Now, what can I

61
00:04:13.759 --> 00:04:15.599
do for your little lady?

62
00:04:15.840 --> 00:04:19.600
You don't remember me, Helen Collins.

63
00:04:19.279 --> 00:04:20.079
I don't think I do.

64
00:04:21.040 --> 00:04:24.839
And Missus James Collins, Jim Collins's wife.

65
00:04:25.720 --> 00:04:29.319
Oh, Missus Collins, well, of course I remember you. You

66
00:04:29.399 --> 00:04:31.120
were here for question when your husband was.

67
00:04:32.600 --> 00:04:32.800
Well.

68
00:04:32.839 --> 00:04:36.600
I apologize, Missus Collins. Here you see detective got three

69
00:04:36.600 --> 00:04:40.639
handled that whole unfortunate affair, and I well, what can

70
00:04:40.680 --> 00:04:42.399
I do for you? Missus Collins?

71
00:04:42.560 --> 00:04:46.720
I have to talk to somebody. I'm I'm going crazy.

72
00:04:46.800 --> 00:04:49.800
Naturally afterward you've been talking you don't know and your

73
00:04:49.920 --> 00:04:51.920
husband a wonderful man.

74
00:04:52.000 --> 00:04:52.759
It's worse than that.

75
00:04:53.439 --> 00:04:56.399
Don't you have somebody at home? You can talk to him,

76
00:04:56.839 --> 00:04:57.639
your mother.

77
00:04:57.879 --> 00:05:04.199
Because she's she's up nor Hollins, that's in New Hampshire. Anyway,

78
00:05:04.240 --> 00:05:05.439
I can't talk to her about this.

79
00:05:06.480 --> 00:05:09.439
Some friend maybe a girlfriend.

80
00:05:09.560 --> 00:05:14.000
I don't have any Well, Missus Collinson.

81
00:05:14.839 --> 00:05:16.879
Why don't I take you into one of the back

82
00:05:16.959 --> 00:05:19.680
rooms here and give you some coffee? How would you

83
00:05:19.759 --> 00:05:21.199
like that?

84
00:05:20.920 --> 00:05:21.079
Yes?

85
00:05:22.079 --> 00:05:24.519
I like that. God, you'll just come along with me.

86
00:05:25.079 --> 00:05:27.720
Say to life, you're shaking? Are you cold?

87
00:05:28.079 --> 00:05:29.439
I kiss kind?

88
00:05:29.439 --> 00:05:31.199
I shook up? Who is that heat.

89
00:05:33.439 --> 00:05:33.959
Right in here?

90
00:05:36.120 --> 00:05:38.839
Sit on, missus Collins, and I'll fetch you some coffee.

91
00:05:39.079 --> 00:05:39.959
How do you take it?

92
00:05:41.160 --> 00:05:41.879
It doesn't matter.

93
00:05:42.000 --> 00:05:44.079
Well, I'll put some milk in it, in a little sugar.

94
00:05:44.279 --> 00:05:46.959
Give you some energy. You look like you could use it.

95
00:05:47.000 --> 00:05:47.480
Am I right?

96
00:05:49.000 --> 00:05:52.399
I have to tell you something, and I'm going to listen.

97
00:05:52.600 --> 00:05:55.199
Not just sit back and relax and drink this coffee,

98
00:05:55.360 --> 00:05:57.600
and you tell me what's on your mind. I'll take

99
00:05:57.639 --> 00:05:59.240
your time. I'm listening.

100
00:06:00.720 --> 00:06:06.079
How's the coffee, Sergeant, I forget what you said. Your

101
00:06:06.160 --> 00:06:10.240
last name is Kellen, he's the coffee. Sweet enough, Sergeant Callahan.

102
00:06:11.560 --> 00:06:14.480
I should have told somebody before A coffee too hot?

103
00:06:16.319 --> 00:06:18.079
I killed my husband.

104
00:06:18.879 --> 00:06:20.720
How's that again, Missus Collins?

105
00:06:21.519 --> 00:06:23.600
I killed my husband? Oh?

106
00:06:23.639 --> 00:06:27.279
Well, now, and how did you do that? Missus cullency?

107
00:06:27.360 --> 00:06:28.319
If you care to tell me?

108
00:06:28.360 --> 00:06:30.160
Oh I do I do. That's why I'm here.

109
00:06:30.439 --> 00:06:34.879
I'll drink some coffee. It'll settle your nerves, I shot him.

110
00:06:35.519 --> 00:06:38.040
That's a pretty serious thing you're telling me.

111
00:06:38.279 --> 00:06:40.639
Oh, I know that, and I know I should have

112
00:06:40.720 --> 00:06:44.800
told you before, but I've been so upset. I've been

113
00:06:44.879 --> 00:06:51.759
upset for a long time, ever since. Oh since it

114
00:06:51.920 --> 00:06:53.040
goes a long way back.

115
00:06:53.480 --> 00:06:56.240
Will you just tell me all about start way back

116
00:06:56.279 --> 00:06:58.600
if you want to wherever your mind go?

117
00:06:59.160 --> 00:07:03.839
Okay, yes, i'd like that, being very kind to me.

118
00:07:04.560 --> 00:07:06.480
That's what we're here for, Missus Collins.

119
00:07:07.759 --> 00:07:13.639
Well, you see, Jim and I grew up in the

120
00:07:13.680 --> 00:07:18.319
same town, North Pines, New Hampshire. I don't suppose you've

121
00:07:18.319 --> 00:07:18.920
ever heard of it.

122
00:07:19.040 --> 00:07:21.279
Well, learn knew. He came from New Hampshire sometown.

123
00:07:21.519 --> 00:07:25.720
Oh, a very small town. And we didn't exactly grow

124
00:07:25.879 --> 00:07:29.560
up together. I mean I didn't really know him. He

125
00:07:29.639 --> 00:07:33.240
was older than me in North Pines High School, he

126
00:07:33.279 --> 00:07:36.079
was a senior when I was a freshman. Of course,

127
00:07:36.120 --> 00:07:39.680
everybody knew him because he was such a great football player.

128
00:07:40.879 --> 00:07:46.199
Everybody just idolized him. He was the star. I used

129
00:07:46.240 --> 00:07:49.600
to go to all the games, well everybody did, and

130
00:07:49.639 --> 00:07:52.439
we'd cheer like crazy, and I'd cheer along with everybody else,

131
00:07:52.879 --> 00:07:54.480
even though I didn't have the faintest notion of what

132
00:07:54.560 --> 00:07:57.279
was going on down there in the field, but I'd

133
00:07:57.319 --> 00:08:01.000
scream and wave my pennant. I was really cheering for him,

134
00:08:01.519 --> 00:08:04.879
you know, Sure, I know. And sometimes after the big

135
00:08:04.920 --> 00:08:11.319
games there'd be parties dances, and he'd be there and

136
00:08:11.360 --> 00:08:15.360
everybody crowding around him. He hardly got a minute for himself.

137
00:08:16.879 --> 00:08:21.920
And that's how it happened to meet him.

138
00:08:22.399 --> 00:08:27.560
Stay there me, Yeah, you come here.

139
00:08:29.279 --> 00:08:30.319
If you want to dance with me.

140
00:08:30.519 --> 00:08:32.200
I want to get out of this cruddy crowd.

141
00:08:32.240 --> 00:08:34.720
Come on where too, Well?

142
00:08:34.919 --> 00:08:38.480
He plays outside. Come on. Everybody will think I'm making out.

143
00:08:38.519 --> 00:08:40.559
But you don't care, do you.

144
00:08:40.559 --> 00:08:50.159
No, No, I don't care whatever you say. I didn't

145
00:08:50.159 --> 00:08:53.159
even know what he was talking about. I just knew

146
00:08:53.159 --> 00:08:57.519
that for some crazy reason, he had picked me, me

147
00:08:57.879 --> 00:09:03.039
of all people to talk to. Well, we went outside

148
00:09:03.039 --> 00:09:05.559
and we talked anyway. He talked.

149
00:09:05.879 --> 00:09:08.519
I expect I'll go to Ohio State, maybe Stanford. I've

150
00:09:08.559 --> 00:09:09.759
got all kinds of offers.

151
00:09:10.639 --> 00:09:12.440
I get a new one every day practically.

152
00:09:12.679 --> 00:09:15.360
Oh, I just bet you do you know the scouts

153
00:09:15.399 --> 00:09:16.960
come around all the colleges.

154
00:09:17.679 --> 00:09:21.879
Senior year, they do scouts. Yeah, for the big teams.

155
00:09:22.399 --> 00:09:25.000
I expect they'll be drafted, if we can come to

156
00:09:25.120 --> 00:09:27.039
terms drafted.

157
00:09:31.000 --> 00:09:34.919
I didn't know what he was talking about, but I

158
00:09:34.919 --> 00:09:39.279
didn't care. He was talking to me just as though

159
00:09:39.320 --> 00:09:44.080
I was somebody that mattered, somebody worth talking to. Not

160
00:09:44.200 --> 00:09:47.440
many people had ever talked to me that way, And

161
00:09:47.519 --> 00:09:49.759
the last person in the world I expected to was

162
00:09:49.840 --> 00:09:54.799
Jim Collins. You can imagine, Oh sure I can. I

163
00:09:54.840 --> 00:09:59.159
never saw him again, not to talk to. He went

164
00:09:59.200 --> 00:10:01.600
away to college, and the Scouts did come after him,

165
00:10:01.639 --> 00:10:05.279
and they made him fantastic offers, and he was drafted,

166
00:10:06.679 --> 00:10:09.720
and after that he belonged to them, and he started

167
00:10:09.720 --> 00:10:14.080
playing professional football and he well, I guess you know

168
00:10:14.120 --> 00:10:17.159
all about that. Everybody does. He was just wonderful, great,

169
00:10:17.320 --> 00:10:19.759
just running back and relieved. Of course, I read all

170
00:10:19.759 --> 00:10:23.000
about him in the papers, every word. I was teaching

171
00:10:23.080 --> 00:10:27.080
kindergarten by then in the North Pines. I don't know

172
00:10:27.080 --> 00:10:30.240
if I was in love with him. I didn't think

173
00:10:30.279 --> 00:10:34.559
of myself that way, or of him, but I would

174
00:10:34.600 --> 00:10:38.480
think of that evening with the orchestra playing I Don't

175
00:10:38.519 --> 00:10:43.480
Know How to Love Him? You remember that song? Oh sure, Well,

176
00:10:43.519 --> 00:10:48.000
that's kind of how it was. I couldn't think of

177
00:10:48.039 --> 00:10:52.559
myself as actually being in love. That was well, it

178
00:10:52.600 --> 00:10:56.600
was beyond my wildest dreams. I just thought that for

179
00:10:56.679 --> 00:11:02.960
that one evening, somebody famous and exceptional to talked to me,

180
00:11:03.679 --> 00:11:06.080
told me about his plans, told him to me, of

181
00:11:06.159 --> 00:11:10.200
all people, me, you know, put you on some more coffee.

182
00:11:10.240 --> 00:11:15.919
And then this absolutely amazing thing happened. He came back

183
00:11:15.960 --> 00:11:19.960
to North Pines, the North Pines that thinking of a place,

184
00:11:20.519 --> 00:11:22.679
And we didn't even have a library, that's how small

185
00:11:22.799 --> 00:11:25.320
North Pines is. Of course, he came back to see

186
00:11:25.320 --> 00:11:28.360
his parents, not to see me, naturally, and the whole

187
00:11:28.399 --> 00:11:31.360
town turned up. I mean they put up banners, and

188
00:11:31.399 --> 00:11:34.000
they had a parade of music, and a mayor made

189
00:11:34.039 --> 00:11:38.000
a speech up the town really turned itself inside out

190
00:11:38.000 --> 00:11:47.279
and upside down. I'm hung around. After everybody else went home,

191
00:11:48.600 --> 00:11:50.840
Jim stayed and talked to the mayor for a few minutes,

192
00:11:51.600 --> 00:11:53.679
and then they shook hands, and the mayor went one

193
00:11:53.720 --> 00:11:57.320
way and Jim went another way, and there I was.

194
00:11:58.279 --> 00:11:59.519
She almost bumped into me.

195
00:12:00.200 --> 00:12:02.240
WHOA, I'm sorry. Did I hurt you?

196
00:12:02.399 --> 00:12:04.320
Oh no, no, no no no, you didn't hurt me.

197
00:12:04.960 --> 00:12:08.039
I didn't hurt you, did I You're too little.

198
00:12:09.799 --> 00:12:12.000
That was a silly thing to say, hey, I know

199
00:12:12.120 --> 00:12:15.639
you don't I not really from somewhere.

200
00:12:15.720 --> 00:12:17.399
I know, I know you're from somewhere.

201
00:12:18.240 --> 00:12:23.039
High school, high school, way back then the Big Dance,

202
00:12:23.879 --> 00:12:27.039
which big dance? Just before you went away to college.

203
00:12:27.679 --> 00:12:28.840
I took you to the Big Dance.

204
00:12:28.879 --> 00:12:31.720
I mean you were my date. Oh no, no, it was

205
00:12:31.799 --> 00:12:34.720
nothing like that. We just talked for a little while.

206
00:12:35.720 --> 00:12:39.480
We went outside and talked. Oh oh you don't remember. No,

207
00:12:39.559 --> 00:12:43.399
there's no reason why you should remember. You just wanted

208
00:12:43.440 --> 00:12:45.679
to get away from the crowd, and I went with you.

209
00:12:45.759 --> 00:12:48.440
Well, i'd like to do that now. It looks have

210
00:12:48.519 --> 00:12:52.720
dinner with me. Uh, dinner, Yeah, dinner with me?

211
00:12:53.000 --> 00:12:55.279
How about it? Do you want to what?

212
00:12:56.960 --> 00:12:57.320
Yes?

213
00:12:58.600 --> 00:13:06.600
Yes, I do, Yes, I'd love to. Jim was in

214
00:13:06.679 --> 00:13:09.879
town for just a few days. I had dinner at

215
00:13:09.879 --> 00:13:13.399
his family's house. I hardly remember that, because of course

216
00:13:13.440 --> 00:13:16.120
his parents just hung on every word he said, and

217
00:13:16.159 --> 00:13:18.559
so did I. And when he came to my house,

218
00:13:18.559 --> 00:13:21.080
it was the same thing. He told the same stories

219
00:13:21.120 --> 00:13:24.360
he told that his family's house, and my parents loved them,

220
00:13:24.399 --> 00:13:28.039
and I loved hearing them again. I felt like I

221
00:13:28.120 --> 00:13:31.320
was becoming a part of his life, hearing all those

222
00:13:31.320 --> 00:13:35.039
stories and all the famous names and everything all so

223
00:13:35.240 --> 00:13:43.320
different from anything I'd ever known, just like another world.

224
00:13:44.360 --> 00:13:45.879
You're sure you want to hear all this?

225
00:13:46.320 --> 00:13:47.320
Yes, yes, I do.

226
00:13:48.679 --> 00:13:52.519
Well, you're not going to believe this part.

227
00:13:52.639 --> 00:13:53.600
I'm trying me.

228
00:13:55.000 --> 00:13:59.960
He fell in love with me? Yes, yes, Jim Collins

229
00:14:00.399 --> 00:14:01.559
fell in love with me.

230
00:14:02.080 --> 00:14:03.720
No, Why wouldn't I believe that?

231
00:14:04.240 --> 00:14:07.600
Well, because you can see the kind of girl I am,

232
00:14:08.200 --> 00:14:12.320
and you know what he was. But he did. He

233
00:14:12.440 --> 00:14:16.000
fell in love with me, and he asked me to

234
00:14:16.000 --> 00:14:20.000
marry him, actually asked me to marry him.

235
00:14:20.159 --> 00:14:22.919
What you want tomorrow? Milk in that? More sugar?

236
00:14:23.080 --> 00:14:25.879
No? No, no, this is fine. Well he asked me

237
00:14:25.919 --> 00:14:29.759
to marry him? And what can I say? I said yes?

238
00:14:30.559 --> 00:14:34.240
What else was there to say? What about no to

239
00:14:34.440 --> 00:14:38.799
Jim Collins? Say no to Jim Collins when he asks

240
00:14:38.799 --> 00:14:39.639
you to marry him?

241
00:14:39.840 --> 00:14:42.080
You loved him?

242
00:14:42.639 --> 00:14:46.320
Of course I did. I mean here, I was a

243
00:14:46.440 --> 00:14:50.679
kindergarten teacher in North Pines, not very pretty, not unusual

244
00:14:50.720 --> 00:14:54.519
in any way. I thought I'd live my whole life

245
00:14:54.559 --> 00:14:59.159
in North Pines, maybe be an old maid, maybe die there.

246
00:15:00.840 --> 00:15:05.360
And then Jim Collins ask me to marry him. The

247
00:15:05.639 --> 00:15:09.399
great Jim Collins, the great football player.

248
00:15:09.559 --> 00:15:10.960
Is running back ever leaving?

249
00:15:11.080 --> 00:15:14.639
Of course, I said yes, and we got married right

250
00:15:14.639 --> 00:15:18.399
there in my parents' house because Jim had to leave

251
00:15:18.480 --> 00:15:19.320
the very next day.

252
00:15:23.480 --> 00:15:26.799
Training starts day after tomorrow, allan, it does, Yeah, for

253
00:15:26.840 --> 00:15:27.200
a month.

254
00:15:27.759 --> 00:15:28.840
Where do you go for the training?

255
00:15:29.120 --> 00:15:32.919
Westport, Connecticut? Well, we live in a houstern apartment, a baby,

256
00:15:32.919 --> 00:15:33.879
it's only for a month.

257
00:15:34.279 --> 00:15:35.279
A hotel.

258
00:15:35.879 --> 00:15:38.080
Well, I thought you might want to stay on here

259
00:15:38.080 --> 00:15:39.080
with your folks.

260
00:15:39.679 --> 00:15:42.519
What four I want to be with you.

261
00:15:43.279 --> 00:15:47.600
Kid, I'll be living in a dormitory. A dormitory, yeah,

262
00:15:47.799 --> 00:15:49.200
with all the other jocks.

263
00:15:50.399 --> 00:15:52.960
You mean we can't live together.

264
00:15:52.879 --> 00:15:53.799
Not doing training?

265
00:15:55.639 --> 00:15:56.039
Why not?

266
00:15:56.519 --> 00:15:57.159
We're married.

267
00:15:58.000 --> 00:16:01.279
Hell, and those coaches are strict, they are They watch

268
00:16:01.320 --> 00:16:04.320
us like hawks. You wouldn't like it. And even if

269
00:16:04.360 --> 00:16:06.120
they'd let you in, and they sure wouldn't let you in.

270
00:16:06.200 --> 00:16:09.879
Not during training or when do I get to see you? Well,

271
00:16:10.200 --> 00:16:14.759
after training, then for two months as exhibition games, Miami, Buffalo,

272
00:16:15.000 --> 00:16:15.600
all over.

273
00:16:16.000 --> 00:16:17.559
And I can go with you to those places.

274
00:16:17.639 --> 00:16:20.120
Well, you can meet me there, you know, you see

275
00:16:20.159 --> 00:16:22.600
the players all go on shot at flights and wives

276
00:16:22.600 --> 00:16:26.279
and sweethearts aren't allowed. But you can meet me in Chicago,

277
00:16:26.440 --> 00:16:29.399
Saint Louis Kansas City, all over two months of that.

278
00:16:30.320 --> 00:16:32.399
Don't worry, honey, we'll get together now.

279
00:16:32.440 --> 00:16:32.960
And then.

280
00:16:36.440 --> 00:16:40.039
It wasn't easy, Sergeant Callan, I don't suppose it was.

281
00:16:40.639 --> 00:16:43.679
I'd never heard of a life like that. The training,

282
00:16:44.399 --> 00:16:50.120
practice games, the exhibition games. And then I think that

283
00:16:50.360 --> 00:16:55.519
was the worst of all, the banquet circus. See, Jim

284
00:16:55.600 --> 00:17:00.159
made speeches at colleges all over, sometimes six speeches in

285
00:17:00.200 --> 00:17:04.279
one week. The last speech he made was right here

286
00:17:04.319 --> 00:17:09.680
in this town, at your college here. It was a

287
00:17:09.680 --> 00:17:21.160
little while after that speech, and I killed him.

288
00:17:21.599 --> 00:17:26.400
Do you dream of becoming a celebrity yourself? Very well.

289
00:17:27.200 --> 00:17:30.319
If you have the talent and the perseverance and the

290
00:17:30.440 --> 00:17:35.279
audacity to launch yourself on this perilous path, good luck

291
00:17:35.319 --> 00:17:38.759
to you. If, on the other hand, you think such

292
00:17:38.759 --> 00:17:42.400
an undertaking requires too much of you, and your main

293
00:17:42.680 --> 00:17:48.920
assets are your beauty, your charm, your femininity, then perhaps

294
00:17:49.119 --> 00:17:54.160
you think of marrying a celebrity. If this tale has

295
00:17:54.240 --> 00:17:58.519
any moral at all, any purpose, it is only the

296
00:17:58.599 --> 00:17:59.599
whispered warning.

297
00:18:00.480 --> 00:18:01.559
Think again.

298
00:18:02.960 --> 00:18:04.839
Our return shortly were that too?

299
00:18:09.480 --> 00:18:20.880
And Jim Collins was a football hero at North Pines

300
00:18:20.960 --> 00:18:21.559
High School.

301
00:18:22.440 --> 00:18:24.839
He was a football star at college.

302
00:18:25.720 --> 00:18:29.440
He was drafted into the majors after graduation and became

303
00:18:29.480 --> 00:18:33.720
a football celebrity. On a visit to his hometown in

304
00:18:33.759 --> 00:18:37.119
New Hampshire, he encountered a girl he had talked to

305
00:18:37.400 --> 00:18:41.519
for ten minutes many years before at a high school dance,

306
00:18:42.279 --> 00:18:46.640
and for this reason or that, he married her. When

307
00:18:46.680 --> 00:18:49.720
our first Act ended, she was in a police station

308
00:18:49.880 --> 00:18:53.640
telling the sergeant that she had killed her famous husband.

309
00:18:54.119 --> 00:18:58.160
I didn't mean to kill him. I loved him. I

310
00:18:58.240 --> 00:19:01.680
hardly ever saw, but I loved him. I never meant

311
00:19:01.680 --> 00:19:02.920
to do such a terrible thing.

312
00:19:02.960 --> 00:19:03.519
But I just.

313
00:19:05.200 --> 00:19:08.440
I don't know. I just go where I couldn't stand

314
00:19:08.480 --> 00:19:09.000
it anymore.

315
00:19:09.440 --> 00:19:12.200
Try and calm down and tell me what, well, what

316
00:19:12.440 --> 00:19:16.079
led up to everything? Well, you're a very nice girl.

317
00:19:16.119 --> 00:19:19.680
Anybody could see that, so so tell me what did

318
00:19:19.680 --> 00:19:22.920
he do to make you? Or you know, or there

319
00:19:23.000 --> 00:19:23.920
must have been a reason.

320
00:19:24.160 --> 00:19:27.720
No, not really. He was always good to me. He

321
00:19:27.839 --> 00:19:28.480
was a good man.

322
00:19:29.680 --> 00:19:32.079
But will you want some more coffee?

323
00:19:32.839 --> 00:19:33.319
Not really?

324
00:19:33.440 --> 00:19:34.559
Well, how about an aspirin?

325
00:19:36.319 --> 00:19:36.960
That would be nice.

326
00:19:37.000 --> 00:19:39.799
I've got some right here, always killy some on me?

327
00:19:40.279 --> 00:19:43.960
Well here you are, yeah, TikTok? You want some water?

328
00:19:44.240 --> 00:19:44.319
No?

329
00:19:44.559 --> 00:19:50.000
Not a coffee? Is all right? Thank you?

330
00:19:50.079 --> 00:19:54.079
Now? Let's both you and me relax, and you tell

331
00:19:54.119 --> 00:19:57.440
me the rest of it.

332
00:19:57.480 --> 00:20:01.119
Isn't somebody supposed to take down my confession? I thought

333
00:20:01.160 --> 00:20:01.799
you always did that.

334
00:20:02.200 --> 00:20:05.519
There's always time for that later. You'll just tell me

335
00:20:05.599 --> 00:20:08.000
about Jim Collins and everything that happened.

336
00:20:09.920 --> 00:20:15.200
Well, I could have put up with everything, I think

337
00:20:16.400 --> 00:20:18.440
if it hadn't been for the fans.

338
00:20:18.920 --> 00:20:19.640
The fans.

339
00:20:20.599 --> 00:20:24.119
I've read about fans that follow movie stars around, and

340
00:20:24.640 --> 00:20:28.240
rock singers and most people. And of course I know

341
00:20:28.480 --> 00:20:32.160
senators and presidents have people like that, but that's mostly

342
00:20:32.200 --> 00:20:37.559
election years. But I never knew fans followed football players around.

343
00:20:38.839 --> 00:20:43.400
It came as quite a shock, I can imagine. There

344
00:20:43.480 --> 00:20:47.839
was one time we were in New York. I'd never

345
00:20:47.880 --> 00:20:49.960
been to New York before, and Jim and I went

346
00:20:50.000 --> 00:20:53.480
into a big department store. I wanted to buy a purse,

347
00:20:53.680 --> 00:20:56.839
one of those over the shoulder things, you know, And

348
00:20:57.559 --> 00:21:01.480
we got up to the counter. Salesgirl took one look

349
00:21:01.519 --> 00:21:03.200
at him, and I thought she was gonna faint.

350
00:21:04.160 --> 00:21:07.359
You you are you're him, aren't you him?

351
00:21:07.359 --> 00:21:12.240
Oh damn, I can mister job get out of here.

352
00:21:13.200 --> 00:21:17.319
They're crazy, they're coming in this way.

353
00:21:17.440 --> 00:21:18.400
We want to.

354
00:21:21.440 --> 00:21:22.160
I can't stand this.

355
00:21:23.119 --> 00:21:23.960
I can't, Dan.

356
00:21:24.880 --> 00:21:34.559
Tellen, wait a minute, because we're I was scared to

357
00:21:34.559 --> 00:21:38.559
go out with him. You don't know, Sergeant Callahan. People

358
00:21:38.559 --> 00:21:40.400
would see him on a street or in a restaurant

359
00:21:40.480 --> 00:21:43.720
or a movie, and well they just went crazy, mister Callahan.

360
00:21:45.119 --> 00:21:49.240
Nobody can tell me they loved him. Love should be

361
00:21:49.839 --> 00:21:53.279
gentle and kind and considerate, don't you think so?

362
00:21:54.000 --> 00:21:55.000
I believe I do.

363
00:21:55.279 --> 00:21:58.480
Well these people that they treated him like he was

364
00:21:58.519 --> 00:22:01.000
some kind of a thing, like like they bought and

365
00:22:01.119 --> 00:22:03.519
paid for him, and they could do whatever they wanted

366
00:22:03.559 --> 00:22:07.799
to with him, like he belonged to them. I got

367
00:22:07.880 --> 00:22:09.920
so I wouldn't go out on the street with him.

368
00:22:11.359 --> 00:22:14.920
I meet him at this bar, which was his favorite

369
00:22:14.920 --> 00:22:19.160
place to go, and I'd sit there with him, and

370
00:22:19.720 --> 00:22:21.279
Bruiser would usually sit with us.

371
00:22:21.599 --> 00:22:23.200
A Bruiser, who's that?

372
00:22:24.319 --> 00:22:27.440
Oh you don't know about Bruiser, Jim's bodyguard.

373
00:22:28.160 --> 00:22:30.799
Oh yeah, I know him, only I didn't know that

374
00:22:31.000 --> 00:22:32.240
was what they called him.

375
00:22:32.400 --> 00:22:36.519
Well, it was what Jim called him. Bruiser was in

376
00:22:36.559 --> 00:22:40.200
college with him. He played football too. Of course he

377
00:22:40.240 --> 00:22:43.720
wasn't as good as him, Oh no, not many were.

378
00:22:44.279 --> 00:22:49.039
And he wasn't what you call a student. And when

379
00:22:49.079 --> 00:22:50.759
he got out of school. He went into the Marines

380
00:22:50.799 --> 00:22:52.279
for a couple of years, and then he was in

381
00:22:53.119 --> 00:22:56.480
He was a security guard for a while and then

382
00:22:56.519 --> 00:22:59.119
he met Jim, and well from then on he was

383
00:22:59.160 --> 00:23:02.200
with him all the time. He was really very nice

384
00:23:02.880 --> 00:23:08.839
and of course he was crazy about him, like everybody.

385
00:23:08.000 --> 00:23:10.039
Look at this Ellen, what is it?

386
00:23:10.720 --> 00:23:12.400
Ah cigarette case?

387
00:23:12.480 --> 00:23:17.000
Isn't it light? Both solid? Golden? Whoa Jim? Give him

388
00:23:17.039 --> 00:23:17.279
to me?

389
00:23:18.359 --> 00:23:18.880
Oh?

390
00:23:19.079 --> 00:23:20.279
That was nice.

391
00:23:20.839 --> 00:23:23.200
I didn't pay for him, and somebody gave him to

392
00:23:23.279 --> 00:23:24.559
him and he passed him on to me.

393
00:23:25.119 --> 00:23:25.960
Jim doesn't smoke.

394
00:23:26.119 --> 00:23:31.160
There were presents from a lady really, no, no, don't

395
00:23:31.160 --> 00:23:36.400
get jealous. They were from a fan, his number one

396
00:23:36.599 --> 00:23:37.359
lady fan.

397
00:23:38.680 --> 00:23:42.559
She gives him presents, expensive presents like that.

398
00:23:42.880 --> 00:23:45.200
Don't worry, and he just passes them on to me.

399
00:23:45.599 --> 00:23:50.359
You see these couplings. They're from Gwen to Jim to me.

400
00:23:51.359 --> 00:23:51.920
Is that her name?

401
00:23:52.400 --> 00:23:52.640
Gwen?

402
00:23:53.000 --> 00:23:53.200
Yeah?

403
00:23:53.279 --> 00:23:56.680
Gwen something out? She got it bad for old Jim.

404
00:23:56.839 --> 00:23:59.880
Oh man, here's a gold pencil she gave him. Yeah,

405
00:24:00.079 --> 00:24:01.119
the things.

406
00:24:01.720 --> 00:24:03.079
Why doesn't he give him back?

407
00:24:03.519 --> 00:24:05.880
He tried once, but she carried on like it busted

408
00:24:05.920 --> 00:24:08.839
her hind and really cried and made a scene, so

409
00:24:08.880 --> 00:24:09.640
he stopped trying.

410
00:24:10.279 --> 00:24:10.960
He just give his.

411
00:24:10.920 --> 00:24:11.359
Stuff to me.

412
00:24:12.599 --> 00:24:13.599
It doesn't seem right.

413
00:24:14.039 --> 00:24:16.400
Oh part of the game. Hell oh, part of being

414
00:24:16.400 --> 00:24:17.720
a celebrity. You'll get used to it.

415
00:24:22.319 --> 00:24:26.799
I never got used to it. Never Bruiser and Jim

416
00:24:27.000 --> 00:24:31.720
stood and laughed about it. I never could they talk

417
00:24:31.759 --> 00:24:34.440
about this whim person. They won't even sure what she

418
00:24:34.519 --> 00:24:36.680
looked like because there were always so many fans crawling

419
00:24:36.720 --> 00:24:39.839
around Jim wherever he went. But he used to get

420
00:24:39.839 --> 00:24:44.319
a letter from her every single day, and finally she

421
00:24:44.400 --> 00:24:45.759
sent him a picture of herself.

422
00:24:46.319 --> 00:24:47.400
What did she look like?

423
00:24:49.279 --> 00:24:56.920
Well? She was pretty. I I was jealousy have to

424
00:24:56.960 --> 00:25:01.000
admit that. Mister Callahan, Oh h should I call your sergeant?

425
00:25:01.759 --> 00:25:04.480
You just call me whatever you want to. This is

426
00:25:04.480 --> 00:25:06.319
a very informal talk. What happened?

427
00:25:07.480 --> 00:25:12.559
Well, she had lots of blonde hair, the thick, heavy kind,

428
00:25:12.640 --> 00:25:16.960
you know, down to her shoulders, and a beautiful smile

429
00:25:17.640 --> 00:25:22.359
and very big eyes. And I guess what you'd call

430
00:25:22.440 --> 00:25:27.359
a sexy mouth she was. I guess you'd say she

431
00:25:27.480 --> 00:25:31.200
was beautiful. You think she'd get a man of her

432
00:25:31.240 --> 00:25:32.839
own instead.

433
00:25:32.319 --> 00:25:35.440
Of the picture. Upset you is that it?

434
00:25:36.319 --> 00:25:40.559
I was already upset, not just by her, by all

435
00:25:40.559 --> 00:25:44.960
of them, all the fans. They were just so so wild,

436
00:25:45.119 --> 00:25:47.880
so uncontrolled, so kind of crazy.

437
00:25:48.279 --> 00:25:49.799
But your husband didn't mind.

438
00:25:50.440 --> 00:25:54.559
I think he liked it anyway. Bruiser had a gun,

439
00:25:54.920 --> 00:25:58.039
Oh did he did? Just in case things got rough?

440
00:25:58.039 --> 00:26:02.440
He set Because things did get rough. Sometimes people fought

441
00:26:02.440 --> 00:26:06.160
to get near Jim and fights started. And if Jim

442
00:26:06.240 --> 00:26:09.119
didn't do what they wanted and too, you know, spend

443
00:26:09.240 --> 00:26:11.400
enough time with them, or hand out enough pictures or

444
00:26:11.440 --> 00:26:16.559
sign enough autographs, well they'd get saw at them and

445
00:26:16.559 --> 00:26:17.319
make threats.

446
00:26:17.599 --> 00:26:19.400
Well what kind of threats?

447
00:26:20.000 --> 00:26:24.440
Oh, like like they'd ruin him, Like they hoped he'd

448
00:26:24.480 --> 00:26:27.880
lose a game, lose ten games in a row, break

449
00:26:27.920 --> 00:26:31.559
a leg. I mean, they get really angry, and I

450
00:26:31.599 --> 00:26:34.920
couldn't send it. I mean, after all, he was a person.

451
00:26:37.240 --> 00:26:42.559
He and Bruiser they just laughed it off. Like the

452
00:26:42.640 --> 00:26:44.640
last letter he got from this Gwyn person.

453
00:26:45.000 --> 00:26:48.799
What did the letter say? Do you remember most of it?

454
00:26:50.200 --> 00:26:52.279
See, we were sitting in this bar we used to

455
00:26:52.319 --> 00:26:55.440
go to, and Jim got it out and he started

456
00:26:55.480 --> 00:26:58.400
to read it out loud. I know that wasn't very

457
00:26:58.480 --> 00:27:00.319
nice of him, but he always in it.

458
00:27:01.960 --> 00:27:04.960
Dearest, most adorable man in the whole world.

459
00:27:05.279 --> 00:27:06.400
Oh how about then?

460
00:27:06.559 --> 00:27:10.039
Yeah, I saw you yesterday going into the barber shop,

461
00:27:10.200 --> 00:27:12.279
the big one where all the famous men go to.

462
00:27:13.119 --> 00:27:16.640
I worship you from Afar. But my secret dream, which

463
00:27:16.680 --> 00:27:19.759
I shall now reveal to you, is to be near you,

464
00:27:20.319 --> 00:27:21.680
near enough to kneel at.

465
00:27:21.519 --> 00:27:25.079
Your feet and have your blessed hands touch my head.

466
00:27:25.400 --> 00:27:29.319
Come on, Ah, I received your picture, but it's not

467
00:27:29.480 --> 00:27:30.440
the one I want.

468
00:27:30.559 --> 00:27:31.640
The center a picture.

469
00:27:31.799 --> 00:27:34.279
Yeah, the pr office sends, and not to everybody.

470
00:27:34.319 --> 00:27:34.839
It's nothing.

471
00:27:35.160 --> 00:27:36.200
She doesn't like the picture.

472
00:27:37.039 --> 00:27:40.200
I received the picture, but it's not the one I want.

473
00:27:40.880 --> 00:27:44.039
I want one that will be mine alone, the one

474
00:27:44.119 --> 00:27:45.559
you sent me, says Hi.

475
00:27:45.640 --> 00:27:46.799
There Jim, And that's not.

476
00:27:46.839 --> 00:27:49.599
At all what I want because I am not like

477
00:27:49.680 --> 00:27:50.839
your other fans.

478
00:27:51.160 --> 00:27:54.079
I adore you, every part of you. If you know

479
00:27:54.119 --> 00:27:58.160
what I mean. You are my idol, my god, the

480
00:27:58.319 --> 00:28:02.640
avatar of my desire. Avatar. What's an avatar? Who knows?

481
00:28:02.839 --> 00:28:02.920
You?

482
00:28:02.960 --> 00:28:03.839
Want to hear the rest of this?

483
00:28:04.079 --> 00:28:04.720
I don't know.

484
00:28:05.240 --> 00:28:06.759
It's just more of the same, Jim.

485
00:28:07.920 --> 00:28:09.680
I think you should try to stop writing to you,

486
00:28:10.440 --> 00:28:11.920
stop hanging around all the time.

487
00:28:12.039 --> 00:28:15.920
Well, Helen, what's the harm. She's not hurting anybody.

488
00:28:15.480 --> 00:28:16.160
She's hurting me.

489
00:28:16.680 --> 00:28:19.480
Oh, it's my little baby getting jealous.

490
00:28:19.519 --> 00:28:21.200
Maybe, Oh, it's not fast.

491
00:28:22.559 --> 00:28:25.559
It's just all so undignified.

492
00:28:26.240 --> 00:28:28.440
But what's a little dignity when you're a celebrity.

493
00:28:28.480 --> 00:28:29.279
It's so cheap.

494
00:28:29.519 --> 00:28:33.519
Hey, hey, look, huh, look at what it's, sir. It's

495
00:28:33.519 --> 00:28:37.519
that name, that that gwy Woods it. Oh, for Pete's sake.

496
00:28:37.680 --> 00:28:40.519
So she just walked in. She's looking around.

497
00:28:40.279 --> 00:28:43.960
All right, all right, you want her here? She wanted

498
00:28:44.039 --> 00:28:46.319
to see you and come over here and spoil everything.

499
00:28:46.400 --> 00:28:50.000
Honey, what's the harm. She spotted your jim, So she's

500
00:28:50.039 --> 00:28:52.480
coming over here. She's a pathetic dame.

501
00:28:53.880 --> 00:28:54.680
Something in her hand.

502
00:28:54.920 --> 00:28:59.079
Okay, she has got something in the head. Who cares?

503
00:28:59.119 --> 00:28:59.359
Well?

504
00:29:00.240 --> 00:29:03.559
Hello, hello there, well, hello there, do you too?

505
00:29:04.599 --> 00:29:06.039
I was hoping you'd be alone.

506
00:29:06.200 --> 00:29:08.359
This is my friend and this is my wife.

507
00:29:09.599 --> 00:29:11.200
You didn't answer my letters.

508
00:29:11.200 --> 00:29:12.599
Well I've been pretty busy, you know.

509
00:29:13.160 --> 00:29:15.839
Well you didn't send me a picture. Sure I did, well,

510
00:29:15.880 --> 00:29:17.319
not the kind I asked you for.

511
00:29:17.519 --> 00:29:20.079
No, Look, I don't have any of those kind of pictures.

512
00:29:20.200 --> 00:29:22.000
You could have had one take all right.

513
00:29:22.039 --> 00:29:23.400
Well, my manager wouldn't like it.

514
00:29:23.720 --> 00:29:25.680
Well he wouldn't have had to know, and neither would

515
00:29:25.680 --> 00:29:26.200
my wife.

516
00:29:26.240 --> 00:29:30.559
Oh, well, in that case, I have to.

517
00:29:30.519 --> 00:29:34.880
Have something of my What is she doing?

518
00:29:34.960 --> 00:29:39.519
Get that there? I got it, something of my own

519
00:29:39.599 --> 00:29:43.000
to remember you by so long everybody?

520
00:29:43.440 --> 00:29:47.480
Or oh no, that's a moon. He got off a

521
00:29:47.519 --> 00:29:48.519
piece of my hair.

522
00:29:48.640 --> 00:29:49.480
How do you like that?

523
00:29:51.240 --> 00:29:52.599
Yeah, she's gotten nerves.

524
00:29:52.640 --> 00:29:54.480
It's horrible. She's a horrible thing.

525
00:29:54.599 --> 00:29:56.680
Oh come on now, honey, she didn't hurt me. A

526
00:29:56.680 --> 00:29:58.359
little lock of my hair. Let her have it.

527
00:29:58.920 --> 00:30:02.640
You don't even mind. You don't even get upset when

528
00:30:02.680 --> 00:30:05.319
somebody you don't even know treats you like that. Un

529
00:30:05.319 --> 00:30:06.680
though she had rights to you.

530
00:30:06.720 --> 00:30:08.359
Why I though you were her servant.

531
00:30:08.640 --> 00:30:11.559
No, it's worse than that. Nobody would do anything so

532
00:30:11.680 --> 00:30:14.640
degrading to a servant, not even to a slave. She

533
00:30:14.759 --> 00:30:16.960
treats you like a pet, a dog or a cat.

534
00:30:17.039 --> 00:30:20.920
You don't even mind. You're a public pet. You got

535
00:30:21.000 --> 00:30:23.559
to beat a zoo. When people get that, you feed

536
00:30:23.640 --> 00:30:26.480
your things and call you cute. You're in a great

537
00:30:26.559 --> 00:30:29.880
big zoo, the main attract in a great big zoo,

538
00:30:29.880 --> 00:30:30.920
and you don't even mind.

539
00:30:31.799 --> 00:30:32.640
You love it.

540
00:30:38.359 --> 00:30:41.799
Do you still want to be a celebrity? You want

541
00:30:41.799 --> 00:30:42.759
to have your name in the.

542
00:30:42.799 --> 00:30:47.799
Newspapers, your picture and magazines asks for your opinion on

543
00:30:48.319 --> 00:30:51.519
life and love. Do you want to be cheered by

544
00:30:51.720 --> 00:30:55.680
thousands and chased by hundreds and known.

545
00:30:55.319 --> 00:30:58.799
Intimately by almost no one?

546
00:30:59.599 --> 00:31:02.240
Do you really want to be a celebrity.

547
00:31:03.799 --> 00:31:20.799
I'll be back shortly with a three. Our small town

548
00:31:20.920 --> 00:31:23.960
kindergarten teacher has married the small town.

549
00:31:23.839 --> 00:31:26.599
Boy who was a local football hero.

550
00:31:27.599 --> 00:31:30.720
But since the healcyon days of high school and high

551
00:31:30.759 --> 00:31:36.160
school football, he has become an outstanding football star for

552
00:31:36.279 --> 00:31:43.640
a professional team and increasingly popular, famous, and celebrated, until

553
00:31:43.720 --> 00:31:48.559
he has reached the status of a national celebrity. All

554
00:31:48.720 --> 00:31:54.880
this is foreign to our heroine and distasteful.

555
00:31:54.559 --> 00:31:57.079
I screamed at him. You are to be in a

556
00:31:57.200 --> 00:31:59.960
zoo where people can day patch and figure penuts and cars.

557
00:32:00.039 --> 00:32:02.599
You're cute. You're even a great big zoo and you

558
00:32:02.640 --> 00:32:04.799
don't even mine. You love it.

559
00:32:05.400 --> 00:32:09.240
Oh this, missus Collins, Just because a silly woman sneeped

560
00:32:09.240 --> 00:32:11.880
off a lock of your husband's hair, I mean they

561
00:32:11.880 --> 00:32:14.759
weren't alone. They were with him, You were in his

562
00:32:14.839 --> 00:32:18.240
bodyguard and other people. They were in a public place,

563
00:32:18.599 --> 00:32:21.519
a restaurant, a bar, with other people around.

564
00:32:21.759 --> 00:32:25.440
I think that made it worse, like he was on display.

565
00:32:26.519 --> 00:32:28.960
We touched and handled by anybody at all.

566
00:32:29.480 --> 00:32:32.960
That's better than having them alone together, isn't it. I

567
00:32:33.000 --> 00:32:33.359
don't know.

568
00:32:35.400 --> 00:32:38.400
I never thought about them being alone together, because they

569
00:32:38.480 --> 00:32:39.079
never were.

570
00:32:39.359 --> 00:32:40.640
Are you sure about that?

571
00:32:40.799 --> 00:32:41.000
Oh?

572
00:32:41.079 --> 00:32:44.519
Yes, yes, of course, I'm sure. Jim wouldn't have wanted

573
00:32:44.559 --> 00:32:46.519
to be alone with her. He didn't even like her.

574
00:32:47.599 --> 00:32:49.359
He didn't have time to be alone with her. Yea,

575
00:32:49.440 --> 00:32:53.319
they had time to be along with me. I tried

576
00:32:53.319 --> 00:32:55.200
to follow him to all the big games, and I'd

577
00:32:55.200 --> 00:32:58.319
wait in the hotel room for him in a suite,

578
00:32:59.599 --> 00:33:06.240
a beautiful sweet You were treated like royalty practically. And

579
00:33:07.200 --> 00:33:09.720
one day I came back to her til to wait

580
00:33:09.759 --> 00:33:13.039
for him, and I went into the bedroom to change

581
00:33:13.079 --> 00:33:21.720
my clothes, and there she was. It's Gwynn Priston. She

582
00:33:21.839 --> 00:33:27.839
was going through her clothes, closses. Are you doing you're

583
00:33:28.000 --> 00:33:30.880
his wife? Are you doing here? How'd you get in enough? Please?

584
00:33:30.960 --> 00:33:33.960
Don't be mad at me, missus cat you here? I

585
00:33:34.039 --> 00:33:36.680
told him. See, I was Jim's sister and I hadn't

586
00:33:36.680 --> 00:33:38.640
meet him here. You don't mind doing it?

587
00:33:38.799 --> 00:33:39.000
Yes?

588
00:33:39.160 --> 00:33:41.319
I mind, I mind very much. Why are you going

589
00:33:41.319 --> 00:33:42.079
through our clothes?

590
00:33:42.119 --> 00:33:44.680
Well? I had to have something.

591
00:33:44.799 --> 00:33:49.119
What what you want? Money? You're worth money. Oh no, no, no, no,

592
00:33:49.200 --> 00:33:52.680
I don't need any money. What do you want something

593
00:33:52.720 --> 00:33:52.920
of it?

594
00:33:53.599 --> 00:33:53.640
What?

595
00:33:54.920 --> 00:33:58.920
Oh? You were? You gave him a lot of expensive presents.

596
00:33:58.920 --> 00:33:59.640
Do you want them back?

597
00:34:00.160 --> 00:34:00.440
No?

598
00:34:01.440 --> 00:34:03.880
He tried to give him back to Lacy. But I

599
00:34:03.960 --> 00:34:07.720
wouldn't take them. I want him to have them, to

600
00:34:07.839 --> 00:34:12.239
carry them with him all the time, touch them every day.

601
00:34:12.320 --> 00:34:14.840
He doesn't touch them every day. He gave him to

602
00:34:14.880 --> 00:34:15.320
a friend.

603
00:34:16.239 --> 00:34:16.840
We didn't.

604
00:34:18.599 --> 00:34:20.920
He wouldn't do that. His friend showed them to me.

605
00:34:21.840 --> 00:34:24.079
Well, I never thought he'd do that.

606
00:34:24.119 --> 00:34:26.960
Well he did. Do you think sneaking up to him

607
00:34:27.000 --> 00:34:28.440
and cutting off a piece of his chair was a

608
00:34:28.519 --> 00:34:30.880
nice thing to do? Quin, I had to have something

609
00:34:30.920 --> 00:34:33.000
that was in and that's why you're here now to

610
00:34:33.039 --> 00:34:35.760
get something else up here? Yes, what did you take

611
00:34:35.800 --> 00:34:39.360
this time? Nothing much? You took something out of his clothes,

612
00:34:39.400 --> 00:34:42.840
didn't you. Yes, But it isn't anything. He won't even

613
00:34:42.920 --> 00:34:45.960
know he is. It's not worth anything, only to me.

614
00:34:46.199 --> 00:34:48.960
You've got it in your hand, haven't you right? Yeah,

615
00:34:49.199 --> 00:34:52.800
go it to me. Oh please let me keep pow

616
00:34:52.960 --> 00:34:57.400
to me. Please. I'll call the manager, I'll call the police.

617
00:34:57.719 --> 00:35:01.599
Don't don't, don't do that, I assure you.

618
00:35:04.920 --> 00:35:05.119
Here.

619
00:35:05.119 --> 00:35:12.039
You see you came here to get.

620
00:35:13.440 --> 00:35:15.920
That hush.

621
00:35:18.079 --> 00:35:23.039
I don't believe it. I just don't believe it. It's true.

622
00:35:23.920 --> 00:35:26.679
Let me keep it. Please go away with you, Just

623
00:35:26.760 --> 00:35:30.400
go away, Please go away. I can't keep it. Go away,

624
00:35:30.559 --> 00:35:33.519
just go away.

625
00:35:35.519 --> 00:35:37.119
Are you all right, missus culluch?

626
00:35:38.119 --> 00:35:38.760
Yes, I think so.

627
00:35:39.559 --> 00:35:42.280
You feel like telling me what it was? The young

628
00:35:42.360 --> 00:35:47.440
lady showed you lint? How's that again?

629
00:35:48.800 --> 00:35:53.199
It was lint? You know the stuff that cluts in

630
00:35:53.239 --> 00:35:57.360
your pocket, stuff you've worn your clothes. Well, it's it's

631
00:35:57.480 --> 00:36:00.119
dust and it's a thread and little piece of the

632
00:36:00.159 --> 00:36:04.599
paper from gum wrappers, just mixed up collection of I

633
00:36:04.639 --> 00:36:05.360
don't know anything.

634
00:36:07.360 --> 00:36:09.280
And that was all she'd come there for.

635
00:36:09.960 --> 00:36:12.960
That's what she said, And that was all she'd taken.

636
00:36:14.519 --> 00:36:18.440
A crazy lady, are weirdo? That's what I told Bruiser.

637
00:36:19.159 --> 00:36:20.360
He told him about it.

638
00:36:21.440 --> 00:36:25.800
He came in and pretty soon after Glen left. I

639
00:36:25.920 --> 00:36:28.079
was kind of sorry for her, but I was scared

640
00:36:28.119 --> 00:36:31.280
of her too, and I hoped i'd never see her again.

641
00:36:32.920 --> 00:36:36.000
I took a hot bath, and I laid down on

642
00:36:36.079 --> 00:36:38.559
the bed, and I.

643
00:36:38.519 --> 00:36:48.320
Wondered how I was going to go on with my life. Yes, hello, Yes, Bruiser,

644
00:36:48.320 --> 00:36:49.400
what do you want?

645
00:36:50.079 --> 00:36:50.840
It's in with you?

646
00:36:51.199 --> 00:36:53.159
Nice to watching the game? He looked good. Can I

647
00:36:53.159 --> 00:36:55.159
come up? I've been following him around all day and

648
00:36:55.159 --> 00:36:55.559
I'm beat.

649
00:36:55.880 --> 00:36:58.719
Oh yeah, come on up. I need somebody to talk to.

650
00:37:05.400 --> 00:37:09.119
Don't you see, Bruizer, It's like thousands and thousands of

651
00:37:09.199 --> 00:37:13.480
years ago when people were savages, when they grew pictures

652
00:37:13.480 --> 00:37:15.679
of animals and the dirt because they thought that it'd

653
00:37:15.719 --> 00:37:18.239
mean they'd find an animal and kill it. They thought

654
00:37:18.239 --> 00:37:19.320
it would work magic.

655
00:37:19.760 --> 00:37:21.559
I never heard anything like that, Bruiser.

656
00:37:21.679 --> 00:37:24.320
They shot arrows at the clouds to make it rain.

657
00:37:24.559 --> 00:37:25.199
That's muddy.

658
00:37:25.679 --> 00:37:28.639
Isn't any otherier than shooting at presidents to start a revolution?

659
00:37:30.639 --> 00:37:34.079
There are tribes today. Or a girl follows the man

660
00:37:34.320 --> 00:37:36.519
and takes the dirt from the ground he's walked on,

661
00:37:36.679 --> 00:37:39.920
from his footprint, and she takes it home and plants

662
00:37:39.920 --> 00:37:41.599
a flower in it, and she's sure that when the

663
00:37:41.639 --> 00:37:44.480
flower grows and blossoms, the man will love her. And

664
00:37:44.599 --> 00:37:47.760
don't you see, it's all the same thing. It's superstition,

665
00:37:47.920 --> 00:37:49.000
it's craziness.

666
00:37:49.000 --> 00:37:50.639
Well, you couldn't grow a flower on a mess of

667
00:37:50.679 --> 00:37:52.039
line out of somebody's pocket.

668
00:37:52.400 --> 00:37:56.119
It's not there's nothing you could do with it. So

669
00:37:56.199 --> 00:37:59.599
what does anybody want with it? The gunn wanted it.

670
00:38:00.239 --> 00:38:02.559
She lied her way in here to get it. She

671
00:38:02.719 --> 00:38:05.239
was crying when she asked me, please, please? Could she

672
00:38:05.360 --> 00:38:05.599
keep it?

673
00:38:06.199 --> 00:38:07.280
You could have her arrested.

674
00:38:07.400 --> 00:38:10.400
Oh, I don't want to have her arrested. I just

675
00:38:10.440 --> 00:38:12.639
wanted her to get out of here. I want them

676
00:38:12.639 --> 00:38:15.159
all to get out. I want to have a life

677
00:38:15.199 --> 00:38:18.400
that isn't full of all this craziness. I can't bear

678
00:38:18.440 --> 00:38:23.599
it anymore. I don't understand it that I wanted to stop.

679
00:38:24.760 --> 00:38:28.199
Why can't it Because Jim's a celebrity. He just is.

680
00:38:28.960 --> 00:38:31.719
He couldn't stop being a celebrity even if he wanted to, and.

681
00:38:31.760 --> 00:38:32.599
He doesn't want to.

682
00:38:33.360 --> 00:38:35.960
Well, would you want to give up all that money

683
00:38:36.000 --> 00:38:38.079
and having everybody look up to you and thinking you're

684
00:38:38.119 --> 00:38:39.800
marvelous and ask you to endorse things?

685
00:38:39.960 --> 00:38:41.639
Helen, Baby, that's success.

686
00:38:42.119 --> 00:38:47.079
I can't Jim just play football? I mean, just do

687
00:38:47.360 --> 00:38:49.079
that without all this other business.

688
00:38:49.239 --> 00:38:52.599
Helen, you don't understand what kind of football player Jim is.

689
00:38:53.400 --> 00:38:56.440
It's not just that he's fast and he's very fast,

690
00:38:56.840 --> 00:38:59.119
or that he handles his body like nobody else has

691
00:38:59.119 --> 00:39:07.880
ever done before. Jim has I don't know intuition. Intuition,

692
00:39:08.000 --> 00:39:10.960
I guess you'd call it. Something goes on inside his head,

693
00:39:11.159 --> 00:39:13.719
a feeling for what to do. Maybe he's got a

694
00:39:13.760 --> 00:39:16.360
feeling for what everybody else on the field is gonna do.

695
00:39:16.960 --> 00:39:19.840
He carries it all in his head. I don't even

696
00:39:19.880 --> 00:39:21.800
think he knows it's in his head, but it's there.

697
00:39:23.000 --> 00:39:28.800
It's mystical, like it's born in him. He's like clairvoyant.

698
00:39:28.920 --> 00:39:29.159
You know.

699
00:39:30.679 --> 00:39:32.559
I don't think I can stand it anymore.

700
00:39:32.599 --> 00:39:33.000
Bruisic.

701
00:39:34.639 --> 00:39:37.039
Maybe you oughtn't to be married to somebody like Jim,

702
00:39:37.440 --> 00:39:39.679
because as long as he's a superstar like he is,

703
00:39:39.880 --> 00:39:42.480
people are gonna fall him around and scream and yell

704
00:39:42.519 --> 00:39:46.079
and carry on. Of course, he won't always be a

705
00:39:46.119 --> 00:39:49.559
superstar or any kind of star at all. When exactly

706
00:39:51.039 --> 00:39:56.960
ten years twelve, maybe more, probably less, who knows.

707
00:39:57.239 --> 00:39:58.840
I don't think i'll last that long.

708
00:39:59.119 --> 00:40:00.679
Look, I had a day today.

709
00:40:00.719 --> 00:40:02.480
Would you mind very much about taking a hot shower

710
00:40:02.519 --> 00:40:03.840
and laid down on the bed for half an hour?

711
00:40:03.920 --> 00:40:04.599
Lady?

712
00:40:04.679 --> 00:40:07.480
If you want to, Hey, thanks a lot, Allen, give

713
00:40:07.519 --> 00:40:09.559
me your coat here, hang it up, thanks very much.

714
00:40:09.599 --> 00:40:09.760
Help.

715
00:40:09.800 --> 00:40:12.199
Wait wait, wait, let me take my little little thirty

716
00:40:12.199 --> 00:40:13.039
eight out of the pocket.

717
00:40:13.039 --> 00:40:13.960
Don't want your handle in it?

718
00:40:14.199 --> 00:40:21.480
Okay, Frank, you've got another gun? Oh yeah, this is

719
00:40:21.519 --> 00:40:23.960
that a holster what they call a holster.

720
00:40:23.840 --> 00:40:25.079
And that's what they're call me.

721
00:40:27.159 --> 00:40:28.760
I wish you didn't have to carry gun.

722
00:40:29.239 --> 00:40:32.679
I never had to use one yet outside of the rings. Well,

723
00:40:33.519 --> 00:40:36.360
got it. Take my shower. Hey, I sure appreciate it.

724
00:40:36.440 --> 00:40:37.079
You're welcome.

725
00:40:38.239 --> 00:40:40.760
You be okay, won't you?

726
00:40:40.760 --> 00:40:40.960
Oh?

727
00:40:41.039 --> 00:40:41.280
Sure?

728
00:40:41.639 --> 00:40:42.880
Hey, maybe you need a drink?

729
00:40:43.159 --> 00:40:46.159
No, no, I don't think so. I think I'm just

730
00:40:46.199 --> 00:40:49.880
gonna sit here and try to figure out what to

731
00:40:49.920 --> 00:40:54.800
do with my life. And that's what I tried to do,

732
00:40:54.920 --> 00:40:59.719
mister Callahan, Oh sergeant. I just sat on the bed

733
00:40:59.800 --> 00:41:02.280
and tried to think how I gotten myself into such

734
00:41:02.280 --> 00:41:07.400
a mess. I thought of my life with Jim. No, no,

735
00:41:07.559 --> 00:41:11.239
not with him, because I was hardly ever with him.

736
00:41:11.719 --> 00:41:13.480
I was married to him, but I wasn't with him

737
00:41:13.480 --> 00:41:17.360
except for a little while every now and then. Most

738
00:41:17.400 --> 00:41:21.559
of the time he was with the fans, the worshippers,

739
00:41:21.639 --> 00:41:27.440
the acolytes, the autograph homes, the screamers, the people who

740
00:41:27.480 --> 00:41:30.199
thought they owned him, the people he'd given himself to.

741
00:41:30.360 --> 00:41:34.760
He wasn't mine. He was there, and then I heard

742
00:41:34.800 --> 00:41:42.360
the outside door. Please, I loved you, so he's let

743
00:41:42.400 --> 00:41:45.760
me come in with you, Let me catch you, Let

744
00:41:45.760 --> 00:41:47.519
me spend five minutes.

745
00:41:47.559 --> 00:41:48.760
He was two minutes.

746
00:41:48.800 --> 00:41:49.599
Were you crazy?

747
00:41:50.119 --> 00:41:51.880
See if you don't know how you thought?

748
00:41:51.920 --> 00:41:55.159
You you my dreams, my life before you get out

749
00:41:55.199 --> 00:41:56.719
of here, you some kind of a not just let

750
00:41:56.760 --> 00:41:57.880
me be with you for a minute.

751
00:41:57.920 --> 00:41:59.679
Do you want me to have your throat out?

752
00:42:00.159 --> 00:42:02.400
I don't care what you do, only lore.

753
00:42:03.400 --> 00:42:18.679
That's my wife, stupid fool, Helen, Helen I.

754
00:42:16.440 --> 00:42:19.360
And that's how I came to shoot him, Sagan Callahan.

755
00:42:21.199 --> 00:42:24.880
I don't remember picking up the gun. I don't even

756
00:42:24.920 --> 00:42:28.079
know which gun I picked up. I never had a

757
00:42:28.079 --> 00:42:32.079
gun in my hand before. But when I sawed him

758
00:42:32.159 --> 00:42:37.480
and the girl Gwen, and she was hanging on to him,

759
00:42:37.519 --> 00:42:40.920
pleading with him just to let her touch him. I

760
00:42:41.400 --> 00:42:45.159
don't know why I wanted to kill him, but I did.

761
00:42:47.280 --> 00:42:51.719
I wanted his kind of life to end. Maybe I

762
00:42:51.760 --> 00:42:55.639
should have killed her, Maybe that would have made more sense.

763
00:42:56.960 --> 00:42:57.440
I don't know.

764
00:42:57.920 --> 00:43:01.039
Neither one made any sense, I guess not.

765
00:43:02.440 --> 00:43:06.920
But what I wanted was was for all to stop,

766
00:43:07.800 --> 00:43:12.599
all the craziness, all the screaming and yelling and grabbing

767
00:43:12.679 --> 00:43:13.239
for things.

768
00:43:13.840 --> 00:43:15.039
I wanted everything that's.

769
00:43:15.559 --> 00:43:20.880
Quiet down and be calm and peaceful. But I could

770
00:43:20.920 --> 00:43:26.159
be calm and peaceful and lady a little happy.

771
00:43:26.400 --> 00:43:27.280
I understand.

772
00:43:29.039 --> 00:43:29.400
Do you.

773
00:43:31.079 --> 00:43:31.440
Really?

774
00:43:32.960 --> 00:43:39.920
I really do, thank you, Missus Collins. You didn't kill

775
00:43:40.000 --> 00:43:40.599
your husband.

776
00:43:42.320 --> 00:43:42.719
I did.

777
00:43:43.199 --> 00:43:45.519
The gun you had in your hand was never fired.

778
00:43:46.480 --> 00:43:49.679
But I heard the shots. Two shots.

779
00:43:49.800 --> 00:43:51.360
They came from a different gun.

780
00:43:52.599 --> 00:43:54.440
Oh oh no, not Bruiser.

781
00:43:55.000 --> 00:43:58.000
No, he wouldn't be No, not for either of his

782
00:43:58.079 --> 00:44:03.360
guns from the thirty two belonging to a very crazy lady.

783
00:44:05.400 --> 00:44:11.199
Where we picked her up this morning. But she loved him.

784
00:44:11.760 --> 00:44:15.320
What a fan fuse for a celebrity. Missus Collins is

785
00:44:15.360 --> 00:44:19.039
a very mysterious thing. I don't know what it is,

786
00:44:19.280 --> 00:44:23.679
but I can tell you what it isn't It isn't love.

787
00:44:30.960 --> 00:44:34.559
If you're interested in knowing what happened to Helen. She

788
00:44:34.679 --> 00:44:38.079
returned to the little town of North Fines, went back

789
00:44:38.119 --> 00:44:42.400
to teaching, and some years later married the manual training teacher.

790
00:44:43.039 --> 00:44:48.000
Had three children and a fair measure of happiness, and

791
00:44:48.079 --> 00:44:52.039
even the moments that were troubled or unhappy were not

792
00:44:52.360 --> 00:44:57.159
frantic or filled with any kind of excitement. Her days

793
00:44:57.199 --> 00:45:01.199
of being attached to a celebrity were over, and she

794
00:45:01.440 --> 00:45:03.519
never ceased to be thankful.

795
00:45:04.559 --> 00:45:05.679
I'll be back shortly.

796
00:45:18.519 --> 00:45:22.760
Our cast included Lois Nettleton, William Redfield, Marion Hailey and

797
00:45:22.880 --> 00:45:27.039
Lloyd Battista. The entire production was under the direction of

798
00:45:27.239 --> 00:46:01.679
Hymond Brown. Until next time, pleasant dreams.

799
00:46:02.599 --> 00:46:10.280
Well, you certainly look comfortable and I'm glad. No, no,

800
00:46:10.280 --> 00:46:13.400
no need to get up. I'll get another pot of

801
00:46:13.440 --> 00:46:17.440
tea on the fire. I'll put another log on too.

802
00:46:17.679 --> 00:46:21.480
Although it is a bit warmer than has been lately,

803
00:46:21.599 --> 00:46:27.360
it's still chilling, no doubt about it. But we'll warm

804
00:46:27.440 --> 00:46:33.159
up as we chill ourselves yet again. You know, it's funny.

805
00:46:33.400 --> 00:46:40.960
I've always struggled with understanding whether something is love, honor

806
00:46:42.000 --> 00:46:43.000
or murder.

807
00:46:45.280 --> 00:46:51.599
Auto Light and it's ninety six thousand Dealers Present Uspence.

808
00:46:53.880 --> 00:46:54.280
Tonight.

809
00:46:54.519 --> 00:46:58.239
Auto Light Brings You Love, Honor or Murder, a suspense

810
00:46:58.280 --> 00:47:01.800
play produced and edited by William Spear and starring Kathy

811
00:47:01.880 --> 00:47:02.719
and Elliot Lewis.

812
00:47:07.480 --> 00:47:11.199
Hello, Alice, Yeah, this is Helen. Look kid, I'm not

813
00:47:11.199 --> 00:47:14.360
going to be able to go to the dance after all. Well,

814
00:47:14.400 --> 00:47:16.800
Harry works the late shift with that taxi of his,

815
00:47:16.960 --> 00:47:19.000
so I've got to stay home and look at the

816
00:47:19.119 --> 00:47:23.760
four walls again. I'm so fed up. Sometimes I feel

817
00:47:23.800 --> 00:47:26.079
like leaving this house and Harry and the whole works.

818
00:47:27.000 --> 00:47:29.039
Believe me, the only reason I haven't is because I

819
00:47:29.039 --> 00:47:30.119
need the money.

820
00:47:29.800 --> 00:47:31.679
To do it.

821
00:47:31.840 --> 00:47:35.840
Seven years of wedded bliss owing to show for it

822
00:47:35.920 --> 00:47:39.400
is this stinking place. If I ever get my hands

823
00:47:39.400 --> 00:47:41.000
on a thousand bucks, I'd get out of here so

824
00:47:41.159 --> 00:47:43.440
fast than make it. I said, if I had a

825
00:47:43.519 --> 00:47:45.760
thousand bucks, I'd kiss off Harry so fast as to

826
00:47:45.840 --> 00:47:48.559
make it. Hold it a minute, Alice, somebody came in home.

827
00:47:49.320 --> 00:47:50.119
Nephew Harry.

828
00:47:50.280 --> 00:47:52.840
Yeah, Ray came home early.

829
00:47:53.079 --> 00:47:54.960
Do you expect to find dinner at this hour? You're

830
00:47:54.960 --> 00:47:59.360
going to be disappointed. It's Harry, Alice. What was I saying?

831
00:47:59.360 --> 00:47:59.519
Oh?

832
00:47:59.599 --> 00:48:02.280
Yeah, he cut the conversation. Something's happening.

833
00:48:02.679 --> 00:48:06.639
What I said, cut the conversation here? Give me that phone, Alice,

834
00:48:06.639 --> 00:48:07.519
Hello'll call you later.

835
00:48:07.679 --> 00:48:08.159
Bye.

836
00:48:08.599 --> 00:48:09.360
Sign.

837
00:48:09.639 --> 00:48:14.880
Maybe you know what I got here? Twelve thousand dollars.

838
00:48:15.840 --> 00:48:19.079
Yes, in a moment. Kathy and Elliet Lewis and a

839
00:48:19.199 --> 00:48:22.320
tail well calculated to keep you in a.

840
00:48:22.559 --> 00:48:28.239
Spend Willcox, where you spend your summer vacation on.

841
00:48:28.280 --> 00:48:32.440
The open road half, my hapless pedestrian enjoying the remarkable

842
00:48:32.440 --> 00:48:35.000
performance of my auto light stay full battery, the battery

843
00:48:35.000 --> 00:48:37.199
that needs water only three times a year in normal

844
00:48:37.239 --> 00:48:40.599
car use. Ah, what sweet stay fullman.

845
00:48:40.400 --> 00:48:43.239
Correction, Willcox? You mean sweet full filming?

846
00:48:43.519 --> 00:48:45.880
You walked into a trap, half millad. The auto light

847
00:48:45.960 --> 00:48:49.480
stay full battery brings sweet stay fullman because it has

848
00:48:49.480 --> 00:48:52.199
three times as much liquid reserve as batteries without stay

849
00:48:52.239 --> 00:48:54.679
full features. That's why it needs water only three times

850
00:48:54.679 --> 00:48:55.960
a year in normal car use.

851
00:48:56.039 --> 00:48:58.760
A man who puns like that won't live long, will Coax.

852
00:48:58.679 --> 00:49:01.119
Ah, But half the auto lights a full battery lives

853
00:49:01.159 --> 00:49:05.039
an incredibly long life according to tests based on SAE

854
00:49:05.199 --> 00:49:08.880
life cycle standards. For example, this famous battery gave seventy

855
00:49:08.920 --> 00:49:12.400
percent longer average life than batteries without stayful features.

856
00:49:12.559 --> 00:49:13.960
I shouldn't have started all this.

857
00:49:14.320 --> 00:49:16.719
No one speaking of starting, my friend, The auto light

858
00:49:16.800 --> 00:49:20.840
stay full battery has plenty of starting stamina and dependabilities.

859
00:49:21.360 --> 00:49:24.719
So friends, see your friendly auto light battery dealer tomorrow

860
00:49:24.960 --> 00:49:27.760
and ask for an auto light stay full battery for

861
00:49:27.840 --> 00:49:31.159
your car. And remember you're always right with auto light.

862
00:49:31.840 --> 00:49:35.840
And now with love, honor, or murder and the performances

863
00:49:35.880 --> 00:49:37.400
of Kathy and Elliot Lewis.

864
00:49:37.679 --> 00:49:38.880
Auto light hopes.

865
00:49:38.639 --> 00:49:41.679
Once again to keep you in suspend.

866
00:49:53.880 --> 00:49:57.039
That's what I said, baby, twelve thousand dollars?

867
00:49:57.039 --> 00:49:58.519
Are you out of your mind? Harry?

868
00:49:58.639 --> 00:49:58.880
Hello?

869
00:49:58.920 --> 00:50:01.440
I found this wallet in my just a few minutes ago.

870
00:50:02.079 --> 00:50:06.559
Wallet here, look inside? Open it up, Harry.

871
00:50:07.719 --> 00:50:08.960
One hundred dollars bill.

872
00:50:09.079 --> 00:50:13.159
Fifties and twenties and tens more than twelve thousand dollars.

873
00:50:13.840 --> 00:50:16.000
Twelve thousand dollars?

874
00:50:16.440 --> 00:50:17.920
Now is it all right to come home early?

875
00:50:19.039 --> 00:50:19.159
Oh?

876
00:50:19.480 --> 00:50:19.719
Cheer?

877
00:50:20.920 --> 00:50:22.079
I don't know what to say.

878
00:50:22.320 --> 00:50:24.400
Take it easy, baby, don't get too excited. I got

879
00:50:24.400 --> 00:50:24.840
to give it.

880
00:50:24.760 --> 00:50:27.840
Back, give it back, but yeah, look.

881
00:50:27.679 --> 00:50:30.440
At the name inside the wallet belongs to a regular

882
00:50:30.480 --> 00:50:32.719
custom mind, Sidney Walker, the news commentator.

883
00:50:33.000 --> 00:50:35.599
I take him around town every afternoon. He calls up

884
00:50:35.599 --> 00:50:36.360
for me personally.

885
00:50:37.159 --> 00:50:38.559
Twelve thousand dollars.

886
00:50:38.719 --> 00:50:40.960
Yeah, but as far as we're concern, its not worth

887
00:50:41.000 --> 00:50:43.960
twelve cents. If I don't turn it into the company

888
00:50:43.960 --> 00:50:45.800
before Walker calls about it, they can film me in

889
00:50:45.840 --> 00:50:47.639
a pen for five years.

890
00:50:47.760 --> 00:50:49.079
Then why did you bring it home?

891
00:50:51.519 --> 00:50:54.880
I don't know. I guess I shouldn't have it. Then

892
00:50:55.719 --> 00:50:57.960
it's just that I never saw so much money before.

893
00:50:58.559 --> 00:51:02.000
I wasn't so far away, and I just had to

894
00:51:02.039 --> 00:51:02.920
bring it home and show it.

895
00:51:03.000 --> 00:51:04.719
You had to bring it home and wave it under

896
00:51:04.719 --> 00:51:07.880
my nose. That's like you. That's just like you.

897
00:51:07.960 --> 00:51:08.239
Harry.

898
00:51:08.280 --> 00:51:10.519
No, give me the money. Helen Walker is going to

899
00:51:10.559 --> 00:51:12.079
remember leaving the money in my cabin.

900
00:51:12.199 --> 00:51:12.840
Call up the couple.

901
00:51:13.000 --> 00:51:16.320
Wait a second, how long ago did you find the money?

902
00:51:16.559 --> 00:51:18.199
Twenty minutes ago? I came straight home.

903
00:51:19.320 --> 00:51:19.960
What's the herd?

904
00:51:20.679 --> 00:51:21.280
What?

905
00:51:21.559 --> 00:51:23.920
As long as you're home, why don't you wash up

906
00:51:24.039 --> 00:51:27.119
or fixture some supper? I make you a good supper.

907
00:51:27.639 --> 00:51:28.199
Well, I don't know.

908
00:51:28.199 --> 00:51:30.000
I want to get back on, honey, go on, wash up,

909
00:51:30.039 --> 00:51:33.239
go ahead, give us a chance for a little while

910
00:51:33.280 --> 00:51:35.960
to kind of pretend the money belongs to us.

911
00:51:43.920 --> 00:51:46.559
Ah, this coffee really hits the spot. Why did she

912
00:51:46.559 --> 00:51:47.320
eat honeys hm?

913
00:51:47.360 --> 00:51:47.559
Hmm.

914
00:51:48.760 --> 00:51:49.719
I was thank you.

915
00:51:50.079 --> 00:51:54.559
About the twelve thousand bucks. Wow, someday we'll have a tool. Baby.

916
00:51:55.119 --> 00:51:59.000
We got it right now, Harry, Yeah.

917
00:51:58.800 --> 00:52:03.079
For about five more minutes. Well, I guess I better

918
00:52:03.159 --> 00:52:05.199
report in now. It's been almost an hour. Walker be

919
00:52:05.199 --> 00:52:07.599
calling the company pretty soon. I want the money to

920
00:52:07.599 --> 00:52:11.760
be in a safe when he does, you give me

921
00:52:11.800 --> 00:52:12.440
a walle house.

922
00:52:12.960 --> 00:52:14.920
How do you know Walker will call a company.

923
00:52:15.000 --> 00:52:16.960
Oh, we've been through all of that. He'll call because

924
00:52:16.960 --> 00:52:18.199
he'll remember the ride with me.

925
00:52:18.280 --> 00:52:20.800
We went over a bumpy stretch, easy for his wallet

926
00:52:20.840 --> 00:52:22.760
to pop out then, and probably remember.

927
00:52:22.400 --> 00:52:24.960
That he could have lost it in so many other places.

928
00:52:25.000 --> 00:52:26.800
He may not even think of the cab, right And

929
00:52:26.840 --> 00:52:28.960
if he doesn't, won't you feel like a fool.

930
00:52:28.960 --> 00:52:30.880
It's better than cooling my heels in some jail.

931
00:52:32.639 --> 00:52:37.400
I know what i'd do, fire you what I'd take

932
00:52:37.400 --> 00:52:39.760
the chance that Walker wouldn't remember that he wouldn't call.

933
00:52:40.920 --> 00:52:44.159
I'd keep the money how it stopped that. That's what

934
00:52:44.199 --> 00:52:47.559
I do. But not you. You've always been afraid to

935
00:52:47.559 --> 00:52:49.519
take a chance. You'll always be content to be nothing.

936
00:52:49.519 --> 00:52:52.239
Sorry, I ever came here with the money. Now give

937
00:52:52.239 --> 00:52:53.960
it back to me. I'll turn it into the company.

938
00:52:54.039 --> 00:52:56.039
You love me, Harry.

939
00:52:56.320 --> 00:52:57.519
That's got nothing to do now.

940
00:52:57.559 --> 00:52:59.239
It has everything to do with it. If you leave

941
00:52:59.239 --> 00:53:00.800
this house with the money, when you come back, I'll

942
00:53:00.840 --> 00:53:02.559
be gone.

943
00:53:03.039 --> 00:53:06.519
Now you're talking like I said, I mean, come on,

944
00:53:06.599 --> 00:53:07.480
give me a while.

945
00:53:09.639 --> 00:53:11.480
Here it is, Harry.

946
00:53:13.400 --> 00:53:15.519
You come back, I'll be gone.

947
00:53:16.239 --> 00:53:18.199
Yeah, I'll bet you will.

948
00:53:20.440 --> 00:53:25.079
Well, I gotta be gone. I'll see you later, Honey.

949
00:53:26.800 --> 00:53:27.639
I'll be home later.

950
00:53:28.400 --> 00:53:31.880
It doesn't matter when you come home, you won't find

951
00:53:31.920 --> 00:53:32.280
me here.

952
00:53:34.800 --> 00:53:40.920
You stop talking like that. So on, Helen, it's.

953
00:53:40.800 --> 00:53:43.039
Really goodbye, Harry. I mean it.

954
00:53:44.639 --> 00:53:55.320
You the first day we were married. You've been twisting

955
00:53:55.320 --> 00:53:58.960
me around your little finger, only because you know how

956
00:53:59.039 --> 00:54:04.400
much I love you, how much I need you. I

957
00:54:04.440 --> 00:54:14.199
guess you'll never stop doing that. Well, well, what do

958
00:54:14.199 --> 00:54:14.960
you want me to do?

959
00:54:15.559 --> 00:54:16.000
Nothing?

960
00:54:16.880 --> 00:54:19.199
Nothing, Leave everything to me.

961
00:54:33.320 --> 00:54:34.599
Deal this cab company.

962
00:54:34.760 --> 00:54:38.679
Uh, this is mister Sidney Walker's personal secretary calling.

963
00:54:39.079 --> 00:54:41.440
Don't tell me that cab. Mister Walker Art hasn't got

964
00:54:41.519 --> 00:54:43.079
it yet. I sent it out hours ago.

965
00:54:43.440 --> 00:54:45.679
Oh it's not here, all right, it's not that.

966
00:54:46.599 --> 00:54:47.079
Uh.

967
00:54:47.280 --> 00:54:49.920
We're trying to locate mister Walker, and I just wanted

968
00:54:49.960 --> 00:54:51.599
to find any chance you might have heard from him.

969
00:54:51.719 --> 00:54:51.760
What.

970
00:54:52.960 --> 00:54:54.880
Well, no, if he got his cab, all right, why

971
00:54:54.880 --> 00:54:55.599
did he get called?

972
00:54:56.440 --> 00:54:59.400
H of course you're right, Well, thank you very much.

973
00:55:00.440 --> 00:55:03.639
Well he hasn't reported anything yet that that will makes sense.

974
00:55:03.679 --> 00:55:05.920
Twelve thousand bucks is a lot of money even for Walker.

975
00:55:05.960 --> 00:55:06.760
Give me the phone book.

976
00:55:07.679 --> 00:55:09.440
We can call now mister Walker.

977
00:55:09.480 --> 00:55:11.079
Of course, we got to find out why he hasn't

978
00:55:11.079 --> 00:55:12.360
reported losing his walk.

979
00:55:13.360 --> 00:55:15.519
Oh look, why don't you let me bring the money back.

980
00:55:15.599 --> 00:55:18.320
Maybe maybe he'll give me a good reward.

981
00:55:19.159 --> 00:55:20.960
You're not gonna do anything.

982
00:55:31.800 --> 00:55:33.599
You're gonna get us in trouble, Helen, I know what

983
00:55:33.639 --> 00:55:34.079
I'm doing.

984
00:55:37.400 --> 00:55:40.840
Hello, Hello, I'd like to speak to mister Walker.

985
00:55:40.880 --> 00:55:41.119
Please.

986
00:55:41.280 --> 00:55:44.000
Well, he's not in right now. This is mister Walker's housekeeper.

987
00:55:44.000 --> 00:55:45.199
Could I take a message?

988
00:55:45.840 --> 00:55:49.039
No, no, this is a personal matter. Where could I

989
00:55:49.039 --> 00:55:50.039
be certain of reaching him?

990
00:55:50.159 --> 00:55:53.840
Nowhere until tenna call ten OClO. Yeah, that's when he

991
00:55:53.880 --> 00:55:55.360
does his nicely broadcast you know.

992
00:55:56.360 --> 00:55:59.960
Oh, yes, of course. And what time does he reach

993
00:56:00.119 --> 00:56:00.519
the station?

994
00:56:00.800 --> 00:56:01.880
Five minutes out ten?

995
00:56:02.079 --> 00:56:04.440
Uh huh. You're quite sure he'll be there then.

996
00:56:04.599 --> 00:56:07.039
Oh my heavens, you could stake your life on it.

997
00:56:07.519 --> 00:56:09.599
That's been a schedule for a good many years.

998
00:56:09.800 --> 00:56:10.599
Who's this talking?

999
00:56:10.760 --> 00:56:12.000
Are you a friend of mister Walker?

1000
00:56:12.599 --> 00:56:12.760
Oh?

1001
00:56:12.840 --> 00:56:15.880
Yes, yes, My husband and I have known Sydney for

1002
00:56:15.920 --> 00:56:16.519
a long time.

1003
00:56:16.920 --> 00:56:19.119
Well, as long as you're a friend, I can tell

1004
00:56:19.199 --> 00:56:23.119
you mister Walker has a busy evening ahead of it. Oh,

1005
00:56:23.280 --> 00:56:25.559
he lost his wallet an hour or so ago. It

1006
00:56:25.639 --> 00:56:27.800
contained a lot of money, and not for a payment

1007
00:56:27.840 --> 00:56:28.840
on a house he's wanted.

1008
00:56:29.280 --> 00:56:31.400
That's too bad. I do hope he finds that.

1009
00:56:31.559 --> 00:56:34.280
Oh he'll find the wallet, all right. He's out looking

1010
00:56:34.320 --> 00:56:35.119
for it right now.

1011
00:56:35.559 --> 00:56:38.159
Do you have any idea where he might have lost him? Oh, yes,

1012
00:56:38.199 --> 00:56:39.119
he certainly hasn't.

1013
00:56:39.119 --> 00:56:41.159
He's mighty disappointed it hasn't been returned.

1014
00:56:42.000 --> 00:56:43.639
He knows who found the wallet.

1015
00:56:43.360 --> 00:56:46.199
Oh, not exactly the way he told it to me.

1016
00:56:46.440 --> 00:56:48.599
He knows who should have found it, but that is,

1017
00:56:48.639 --> 00:56:49.400
he didn't tell me.

1018
00:56:49.360 --> 00:56:50.159
The raptor's name.

1019
00:56:50.960 --> 00:56:51.480
I see.

1020
00:56:51.559 --> 00:56:53.920
He's too kind, and he's going that's what he is.

1021
00:56:54.639 --> 00:56:56.679
He's always been that way. I might have called the

1022
00:56:56.679 --> 00:56:58.960
police right away. Why hasn't he?

1023
00:56:59.000 --> 00:56:59.360
Oh he does.

1024
00:56:59.480 --> 00:57:01.960
Gonna call it the embarrassment, the hard feelings, you know.

1025
00:57:02.280 --> 00:57:04.800
So first he's going to look everywhere else he's been

1026
00:57:04.840 --> 00:57:05.320
this evening.

1027
00:57:06.039 --> 00:57:08.039
And if it still doesn't turn up, well he says

1028
00:57:08.079 --> 00:57:10.000
that this fellow he's a six, hasn't come by the

1029
00:57:10.000 --> 00:57:12.280
apartment to return the money by the time he gets home.

1030
00:57:12.719 --> 00:57:17.239
Then he reported all right, and migration here I am

1031
00:57:17.280 --> 00:57:18.800
getting away a mile a minute.

1032
00:57:18.920 --> 00:57:20.840
I'm sure all this stuffn't interest you.

1033
00:57:20.880 --> 00:57:23.960
Oh it does, of course it does. Now if we

1034
00:57:24.000 --> 00:57:26.199
want to reach Sydney before he gets home. You say

1035
00:57:26.199 --> 00:57:28.400
he will arrive at the radio station just before ten,

1036
00:57:28.599 --> 00:57:31.800
at five minutes to ten on the dot. Well, then

1037
00:57:31.840 --> 00:57:36.760
we'll contact him there. Thank you, Harry. That was his housekeeper.

1038
00:57:37.000 --> 00:57:38.719
By what she said, he knows he left the wallet

1039
00:57:38.719 --> 00:57:40.679
in your cab. I told you, yeah, but he hasn't

1040
00:57:40.679 --> 00:57:44.719
reported it yet. Mister Walker is a very fair man.

1041
00:57:45.519 --> 00:57:47.360
Well, I'll have time to bring it down to the company.

1042
00:57:47.119 --> 00:57:48.639
Nor how many times do I have to tell you

1043
00:57:48.639 --> 00:57:50.119
we're not going to bring it down to the company.

1044
00:57:52.519 --> 00:57:53.800
Come on, we got to decide what we can do

1045
00:57:53.840 --> 00:57:56.280
between now at midnight to keep Walker from reporting his los.

1046
00:57:56.159 --> 00:57:57.920
There's nothing we can do. You're just said he knows

1047
00:57:57.920 --> 00:58:02.039
he left the money in my cab. That's right, Well,

1048
00:58:02.039 --> 00:58:04.800
then what is there to decide smiling about?

1049
00:58:06.039 --> 00:58:08.719
Are you guys smiling? Thank you?

1050
00:58:08.800 --> 00:58:09.119
Something?

1051
00:58:11.679 --> 00:58:14.119
You know? There is really only one way in all

1052
00:58:14.159 --> 00:58:16.960
the world to keep walking from telling about that war.

1053
00:58:18.599 --> 00:58:19.440
You're talking about.

1054
00:58:19.800 --> 00:58:21.360
The only way to keep walking from tell him to

1055
00:58:21.360 --> 00:58:27.840
be to kill him. No, no, look, we got to

1056
00:58:27.880 --> 00:58:30.320
decide what we're going to do, So let's stop the jokes.

1057
00:58:31.239 --> 00:58:32.920
Do I look like I'm joking?

1058
00:58:35.480 --> 00:58:39.400
No, No, you don't.

1059
00:58:41.199 --> 00:58:47.559
Is that gun and the dress never been used. They

1060
00:58:47.559 --> 00:58:48.840
can never trace anything.

1061
00:58:48.559 --> 00:58:51.840
To you, Helen, what are you talking about.

1062
00:58:52.000 --> 00:58:54.280
You've got to kill him. It's simple, arithmetical.

1063
00:58:54.480 --> 00:58:58.679
How can I She's never done me any harm.

1064
00:58:58.760 --> 00:59:00.760
If he lives, you'll call it police and tell him

1065
00:59:00.760 --> 00:59:04.039
you've stolen his money. If you do that, you'll lose

1066
00:59:04.079 --> 00:59:04.719
your wife.

1067
00:59:05.960 --> 00:59:06.599
Not that, Helen.

1068
00:59:06.800 --> 00:59:07.400
Listen to me.

1069
00:59:07.559 --> 00:59:10.679
Look how simple is At five minutes to ten you

1070
00:59:10.719 --> 00:59:13.039
can be absolutely certain that he'll be entering the broadcasting

1071
00:59:13.079 --> 00:59:17.360
studio if you were waiting outside for him. There's so

1072
00:59:17.480 --> 00:59:21.760
many quiet places you could take him with a gun.

1073
00:59:22.320 --> 00:59:26.679
Yeah, but Helen, listen to me. Even even if I

1074
00:59:27.039 --> 00:59:29.760
wanted to kill him, I couldn't.

1075
00:59:32.039 --> 00:59:36.119
I Yes, you have you see, Harry, there are some

1076
00:59:36.199 --> 00:59:39.480
men who can kill a hundred times. Doesn't bother their appetite.

1077
00:59:39.480 --> 00:59:42.239
They still get a good night's sleep. No, I know, no,

1078
00:59:42.320 --> 00:59:47.920
not you, not you, Harry. But every man, even a

1079
00:59:47.960 --> 00:59:52.119
weakling like you, can kill once. He's got to kill

1080
00:59:52.159 --> 00:59:53.840
to get rid of the thing that will destroy him.

1081
00:59:55.039 --> 00:59:57.840
You can, Harry. You can do it for me.

1082
00:59:59.039 --> 01:00:01.360
Why don't you let me just bring the money back?

1083
01:00:01.400 --> 01:00:04.320
It be so much better that way, Perry.

1084
01:00:05.039 --> 01:00:06.159
What time is it?

1085
01:00:06.880 --> 01:00:08.840
What?

1086
01:00:08.840 --> 01:00:09.880
What time is it.

1087
01:00:10.840 --> 01:00:12.840
Uh, it's ten a half the nine.

1088
01:00:13.800 --> 01:00:15.880
You couldn't bring the money back now, even if I

1089
01:00:15.960 --> 01:00:19.119
let you. What time should you have reported in with

1090
01:00:19.159 --> 01:00:19.519
your cab?

1091
01:00:19.840 --> 01:00:21.159
Have pastage? What's difference?

1092
01:00:24.039 --> 01:00:31.199
Oh God, I said, see what I mean? If Walker

1093
01:00:31.239 --> 01:00:33.320
reports is lost, now you're in trouble. No matter what

1094
01:00:33.400 --> 01:00:36.320
you do, they'll know you were thinking of keeping the money.

1095
01:00:36.320 --> 01:00:38.400
In their eyes, that's almost as bad as really keeping it.

1096
01:00:38.960 --> 01:00:41.320
You'll know the rules of that company. You're supposed to

1097
01:00:41.360 --> 01:00:43.519
inspect your cab after every fair. If they don't arrest you,

1098
01:00:43.559 --> 01:00:46.079
they'll fire you. They'll black for you. You'll never get

1099
01:00:46.079 --> 01:00:46.679
another job.

1100
01:00:49.199 --> 01:00:52.920
That's why you kept me here. It's suffer forms all around.

1101
01:00:55.559 --> 01:00:57.079
You figured that one out, too, didn't you.

1102
01:00:57.360 --> 01:01:01.679
Yes, I figured that one out too. Walker will get

1103
01:01:01.679 --> 01:01:03.599
to the station at five to ten. You've got forty

1104
01:01:03.599 --> 01:01:06.559
five minutes start out, and actors. If you're on a

1105
01:01:06.559 --> 01:01:07.840
regular run, that'll be your alibi.

1106
01:01:07.880 --> 01:01:08.079
Later.

1107
01:01:09.519 --> 01:01:11.320
Stop at all the usual places and talk to the

1108
01:01:11.320 --> 01:01:12.880
boys and actors. We were just another night.

1109
01:01:13.840 --> 01:01:16.079
We're about my schedule. I'm supposed to be in at

1110
01:01:16.079 --> 01:01:16.599
eight thirty.

1111
01:01:16.679 --> 01:01:18.400
You can always tell them that business were so good

1112
01:01:18.400 --> 01:01:19.039
you couldn't come in.

1113
01:01:22.639 --> 01:01:43.119
Shall I get the gun Harry, Yes.

1114
01:01:29.840 --> 01:01:41.079
Auto light is bringing you Kathy and Elliot Lewis in Love,

1115
01:01:41.440 --> 01:01:46.039
Honor or Murder. Night's production and radio's outstanding theater of

1116
01:01:46.079 --> 01:01:56.559
thrills suspends, say will coos. If you drive across the

1117
01:01:56.599 --> 01:01:58.639
Arizona desert, takes spacial note of.

1118
01:01:58.639 --> 01:02:03.639
The barrel cactus Hi half Hi half. It's a desert phenomenon.

1119
01:02:03.800 --> 01:02:07.519
Holds water like a well, well well that reminds me

1120
01:02:07.559 --> 01:02:09.519
of the auto light stay full battery, the battery that

1121
01:02:09.559 --> 01:02:11.320
needs water only three times a year in.

1122
01:02:11.320 --> 01:02:12.199
Normal car use.

1123
01:02:12.360 --> 01:02:15.360
I was afraid it would no need for fear, lad

1124
01:02:15.519 --> 01:02:17.760
because the auto light stay Full battery has plenty of

1125
01:02:17.800 --> 01:02:21.800
starting stamina and dependability. You see, this super battery has

1126
01:02:21.800 --> 01:02:26.199
a fiberglass retaining mat protecting every positive flet that keeps

1127
01:02:26.199 --> 01:02:29.840
the power producing material in place and means extra long life.

1128
01:02:29.880 --> 01:02:32.559
The little cactus lives in mighty long light two out.

1129
01:02:32.559 --> 01:02:36.000
Pardon me half, but SAE life cycle standard tests show

1130
01:02:36.079 --> 01:02:39.400
that the auto light stay full battery gives seventy percent

1131
01:02:39.599 --> 01:02:42.559
longer average life than batteries without stay full features. Oh,

1132
01:02:42.599 --> 01:02:43.800
there's no use talking.

1133
01:02:43.880 --> 01:02:44.519
You're so right.

1134
01:02:44.559 --> 01:02:46.360
Half the thing to do is see your friendly auto

1135
01:02:46.400 --> 01:02:49.559
light battery dealer tomorrow ask for an auto light stay

1136
01:02:49.599 --> 01:02:52.199
full battery, the battery that needs water only three times

1137
01:02:52.239 --> 01:02:55.599
a year in normal car use. And remember you're always

1138
01:02:55.679 --> 01:02:56.719
right with autolite.

1139
01:02:57.440 --> 01:03:01.000

Harry, sit you beg Pardon, I'm sorry? That was my husband.

1144
01:03:22.960 --> 01:03:23.440
What are you one?

1145
01:03:23.920 --> 01:03:26.000
Well? You must be missus Blake, Harry's wife.

1146
01:03:26.559 --> 01:03:28.119
Yeah, what do you want say?

1147
01:03:29.119 --> 01:03:31.800
Have I talked to you on the phone before? Why

1148
01:03:32.480 --> 01:03:34.519
your voice sounds kind of familiar?

1149
01:03:34.719 --> 01:03:36.199
You may have Who is this?

1150
01:03:36.199 --> 01:03:38.480
This is Dave Harris over at Peerless Cab Company.

1151
01:03:39.280 --> 01:03:40.440
Peerless Cab Company.

1152
01:03:40.679 --> 01:03:43.840
Yeah. See, have you seen Harry in the last couple hours?

1153
01:03:44.679 --> 01:03:45.800
No, he's out working.

1154
01:03:46.199 --> 01:03:48.000
Well, he should have been through with his shift at

1155
01:03:48.000 --> 01:03:50.559
eight thirty twenty five to ten already.

1156
01:03:50.599 --> 01:03:53.320
That's not like Harry.

1157
01:03:53.559 --> 01:03:54.599
Is this something wrong?

1158
01:03:54.960 --> 01:03:55.639
Well, I don't know.

1159
01:03:55.800 --> 01:03:58.599
One of Harry's regular customers, Sydney Walker, called up a

1160
01:03:58.679 --> 01:04:00.800
few minutes ago from Marest on the way that that

1161
01:04:00.880 --> 01:04:03.840
broadcast is Yeah, he thinks he left a wallet and

1162
01:04:03.880 --> 01:04:04.639
Harry's cab.

1163
01:04:07.920 --> 01:04:08.360
I heard you.

1164
01:04:09.639 --> 01:04:12.400
Well, there was twelve thousand dollars in a wallet, Missus Blake.

1165
01:04:12.920 --> 01:04:15.159
Walker says he looked everywhere else that he might have

1166
01:04:15.239 --> 01:04:17.480
lost it and the head and turned up. He just

1167
01:04:17.480 --> 01:04:19.599
wanted me to contact Harry as soon as possible and

1168
01:04:19.599 --> 01:04:21.000
tell him to look in the back of his cab.

1169
01:04:21.880 --> 01:04:24.079
Well, if Harry should call, I'll tell him to get

1170
01:04:24.079 --> 01:04:24.559
in touch with.

1171
01:04:24.519 --> 01:04:25.039
You right away.

1172
01:04:26.559 --> 01:04:28.199
What did you say before huh?

1173
01:04:29.119 --> 01:04:32.440
Walker called and told all this before he started for

1174
01:04:32.519 --> 01:04:32.880
the station.

1175
01:04:34.159 --> 01:04:36.400
What are you talking about, Missus Blake.

1176
01:04:36.719 --> 01:04:37.079
Nothing?

1177
01:04:37.800 --> 01:04:38.159
Nothing.

1178
01:04:44.360 --> 01:04:45.159
Walker called.

1179
01:04:45.199 --> 01:04:48.159
Before you reach the station, Harry'll be waiting at the

1180
01:04:48.159 --> 01:04:51.440
station to kill him now. Walker's already told him that

1181
01:04:51.519 --> 01:04:55.280
maybe Harry took the wallet. Everything all point to Harry.

1182
01:04:55.519 --> 01:04:59.320
They'll arrest him ten minutes after he's killed Walker. Harry,

1183
01:04:59.320 --> 01:05:02.599
he'll tell him. Ever he's weak, he'll try to blame me.

1184
01:05:02.679 --> 01:05:05.239
He'll tell him I made him to it. I gotta

1185
01:05:05.280 --> 01:05:08.440
call him back. I gotta stop him before he kills Walker.

1186
01:05:09.480 --> 01:05:13.559
Twenty five to ten, twenty minutes to reach him. I

1187
01:05:13.679 --> 01:05:22.639
got to reach him twenty minutes to reach Harry, twenty

1188
01:05:22.639 --> 01:05:25.639
minutes to call him back. I told Harry to make

1189
01:05:25.679 --> 01:05:27.360
all the regular stops. Everybody remember him.

1190
01:05:27.360 --> 01:05:28.400
I'll let me think.

1191
01:05:29.800 --> 01:05:33.039
She'll stop for gas at the taxi garage. Yeah, yeah,

1192
01:05:33.079 --> 01:05:35.400
I reached him over four numbers written down some places.

1193
01:05:35.679 --> 01:05:36.760
I said, little book.

1194
01:05:38.039 --> 01:05:39.880
Shaken, so a kiss.

1195
01:05:41.280 --> 01:05:41.519

01:05:41.519 --> 01:05:53.840

1197
01:05:55.760 --> 01:06:00.239
Fye h.

1198
01:06:02.039 --> 01:06:04.920
It was Drige Max speaking this.

1199
01:06:04.920 --> 01:06:08.079
This is Missus Blake calling Harry Blake's wife. Yeah, Miss Blake,

1200
01:06:08.519 --> 01:06:10.480
has Harry been there yet to get his gas?

1201
01:06:10.480 --> 01:06:13.800
I mean no, he hasn't been here all night. Say

1202
01:06:13.800 --> 01:06:14.519
what you been up to?

1203
01:06:15.159 --> 01:06:15.679
What do you mean?

1204
01:06:16.000 --> 01:06:17.800
I just got a call from the main office to

1205
01:06:17.840 --> 01:06:19.239
hold him here when he does show up.

1206
01:06:19.800 --> 01:06:23.960
Look, Mac, Harry always told me you were his friend. Sure, Well,

1207
01:06:23.960 --> 01:06:25.840
he's in trouble, terrible trouble. I haven't got the time

1208
01:06:25.880 --> 01:06:27.280
to explain. If I don't reach him right away, I

1209
01:06:27.280 --> 01:06:28.000
don't know what will happen.

1210
01:06:28.079 --> 01:06:29.719
Well, I don't know what I can do him as Blake.

1211
01:06:29.800 --> 01:06:31.360
Well, you you can tell me the names and the

1212
01:06:31.400 --> 01:06:33.480
telephone numbers. Some of the places of Cabby's, like Harry

1213
01:06:33.480 --> 01:06:35.679
stop off there while they're on the runs.

1214
01:06:35.920 --> 01:06:36.000
Uh.

1215
01:06:36.079 --> 01:06:38.719
Well, sometimes the boy stop at Cuss his coffee shop

1216
01:06:38.719 --> 01:06:40.039
on sixth Avenue for coffee.

1217
01:06:40.119 --> 01:06:40.800
What's that number.

1218
01:06:41.159 --> 01:06:46.480
Uh, wait a minutes. It's a state eight five seven.

1219
01:06:46.639 --> 01:06:48.760
Oh, yes, State eight eighty five seven, all right, alright?

1220
01:06:48.760 --> 01:06:49.199
Where else?

1221
01:06:49.559 --> 01:06:49.880
Oh?

1222
01:06:49.960 --> 01:06:51.880
Maybe if he had a few minutes to spare, he's

1223
01:06:51.920 --> 01:06:53.800
going to Frank Staving in Washington, pull of one.

1224
01:06:53.880 --> 01:06:54.760
I don't know the phone number.

1225
01:06:54.800 --> 01:06:56.320
Then I'll look it up. I'll look it up where else?

1226
01:06:56.599 --> 01:06:59.000
Of course he might go up to union headquarters.

1227
01:06:59.000 --> 01:07:02.199
That chew the rank with the union headquarters. Where else?

1228
01:07:02.559 --> 01:07:05.519
Lots of places you might stop off that.

1229
01:07:06.079 --> 01:07:08.760
You gotta reach him by ten o'clock. It doesn't leave

1230
01:07:08.760 --> 01:07:09.440
you much time.

1231
01:07:09.599 --> 01:07:15.920
No, it doesn't leave me much time. I'm trying to

1232
01:07:15.920 --> 01:07:20.119
locate Harry Blake. Has he been there to night? He hasn't. Well,

1233
01:07:20.159 --> 01:07:21.519
he does show up, but you're telling her to call

1234
01:07:21.559 --> 01:07:28.719
his wife, telling it's very important. You're sure Harry isn't in.

1235
01:07:29.639 --> 01:07:33.159
Could you just kind of look around again? All right?

1236
01:07:33.559 --> 01:07:35.360
If you're sure, but listen. If he does drop in,

1237
01:07:35.440 --> 01:07:43.559
tell him to call home right away. Harry Blake. Yeah,

1238
01:07:43.639 --> 01:07:47.119
the cab driver. She was in your place just a

1239
01:07:47.119 --> 01:07:50.639
few months ago. Can you call him back? Please? It's

1240
01:07:50.719 --> 01:07:52.719
terribly important. I know you're awful busy and everything.

1241
01:07:53.159 --> 01:08:02.519
Hello, Hello, Hello, do what am I gonna do. I

1242
01:08:02.559 --> 01:08:04.559
gotta stop him.

1243
01:08:04.840 --> 01:08:07.679
How fifteen minutes to ten?

1244
01:08:08.360 --> 01:08:10.840
Ten minutes? Only ten minutes? I gotta think. I got

1245
01:08:10.840 --> 01:08:15.119
to think radio stations on sixth and maynutes two miles away.

1246
01:08:15.480 --> 01:08:17.399
Maybe I could get to Harry before Walker reaches there.

1247
01:08:17.439 --> 01:08:19.279
I've got to try. I've got to try. I've got

1248
01:08:19.279 --> 01:08:29.159
to stop him. Driver.

1249
01:08:29.359 --> 01:08:29.880
Huh.

1250
01:08:29.920 --> 01:08:31.439
When I got your cap, you told me you could

1251
01:08:31.439 --> 01:08:33.399
get me the radio station in ten minutes. I didn't

1252
01:08:33.439 --> 01:08:36.039
give you no guardees, lady, I'm doing the best I can.

1253
01:08:36.199 --> 01:08:39.000
But I've got to get there before five or ten.

1254
01:08:39.039 --> 01:08:40.000
You told me you could make it.

1255
01:08:40.279 --> 01:08:42.600
Don't do no good to holler in my ear, lady.

1256
01:08:42.920 --> 01:08:46.800
There must be some way to make better time. Can't

1257
01:08:46.800 --> 01:08:48.399
you take side streets or something?

1258
01:08:49.920 --> 01:08:50.880
Again your stand?

1259
01:08:50.960 --> 01:08:51.800
It's the traffic.

1260
01:08:52.079 --> 01:08:52.840
But you told me.

1261
01:08:52.960 --> 01:08:54.680
I know what I told you, but I didn't figure

1262
01:08:54.760 --> 01:08:55.880
on so much traffic.

1263
01:08:59.520 --> 01:09:02.520
Please hurry, I'll pay you anything if you get me

1264
01:09:02.600 --> 01:09:04.279

1265
01:09:05.359 --> 01:09:10.560
Oh hurry, Now, what's wrong?

1266
01:09:10.800 --> 01:09:13.359
I told you, lady, the traffic is losting us up.

1267
01:09:14.439 --> 01:09:18.600
What time is it now? Don't tell me about I

1268
01:09:18.680 --> 01:09:22.640
want the exact time. Exact time, seven minutes to ten,

1269
01:09:23.800 --> 01:09:27.319
seven minutes to ten. How much father, is it to

1270
01:09:27.359 --> 01:09:27.720
the station?

1271
01:09:28.000 --> 01:09:30.039
Well, I can tell you this. We're not gonna make

1272
01:09:30.079 --> 01:09:30.720
it in two.

1273
01:09:30.560 --> 01:09:34.199
Minutes, and there's no need to make it at all.

1274
01:09:37.000 --> 01:09:50.279
Take me home just a minute or two before ten.

1275
01:09:52.319 --> 01:09:57.159
He'll be coming home soon, wanting to hide under the bed,

1276
01:09:57.960 --> 01:10:03.199
whimpering like a dog. He'll chase the killing to him fast.

1277
01:10:03.199 --> 01:10:05.239
And if they'll come here, they'll take his book away

1278
01:10:06.199 --> 01:10:15.720
and the money too. Why the money too a few minutes?

1279
01:10:17.199 --> 01:10:22.880
Why should they come here? Why should they get the money?

1280
01:10:23.319 --> 01:10:24.880
Why do I have to take the blame for what

1281
01:10:24.960 --> 01:10:28.680
he did? I didn't commit the murder.

1282
01:10:30.399 --> 01:10:33.560
That money I could get away. They would look for

1283
01:10:33.640 --> 01:10:34.199
me too hard?

1284
01:10:35.560 --> 01:10:38.840
Yeah, yeah, Why should I take the blame for what

1285
01:10:38.960 --> 01:10:39.720
Harry did?

1286
01:10:41.680 --> 01:10:41.960
Yeah?

1287
01:10:48.840 --> 01:10:50.600

1288
01:10:50.439 --> 01:10:58.239
Speaking, I'll want to report a murder. It's too late

1289
01:10:58.279 --> 01:11:01.079
to stop the murder and still catch the killer.

1290
01:11:02.800 --> 01:11:04.199

somewhere on the radio station.

1294
01:11:23.840 --> 01:11:27.920
Just how did they kill he?

1295

1296
01:11:30.880 --> 01:11:34.399

How did you get back here so soon?

1299

Good?

1300
01:11:42.439 --> 01:11:43.880
Cab. He can make time when you.

1301
01:11:43.840 --> 01:11:47.319
Ask them, you've killed him.

1302
01:11:47.840 --> 01:11:50.840
Just after ten o'clock, turn on the radio and find out,

1303
01:11:51.960 --> 01:11:57.279
Oh you're talking on the phone. I'll turn the radio.

1304
01:11:57.039 --> 01:11:58.680
On, Harry.

The police are come here and look for you.

1306
01:12:00.319 --> 01:12:01.079
That catching Harry?

1307
01:12:01.560 --> 01:12:01.920
Anybody?

1308
01:12:01.960 --> 01:12:02.560
So you do it?

1309
01:12:03.079 --> 01:12:09.039
Did they try to analysis of mister Sidney Walker. Good evening,

1310
01:12:09.119 --> 01:12:12.039
ladies and gentlemen. This is Sydney Walker to night. I'm

1311
01:12:12.079 --> 01:12:14.079
going to bring you aboard. On a recent interview I

1312
01:12:14.119 --> 01:12:15.279
had with one of the most.

1313
01:12:16.199 --> 01:12:27.399
I want to hear, I shouldn't know, I should I

1314
01:12:27.600 --> 01:12:30.079
actually thought you went through with it.

1315
01:12:33.600 --> 01:12:35.039
You didn't have the nerve.

1316
01:12:36.079 --> 01:12:41.640
No, I didn't kill him, but I didn't have the nerd.

1317
01:12:45.880 --> 01:12:50.840
H Yeah, you gave me the nerve a pep talk

1318
01:12:50.960 --> 01:12:52.960
before I left. It was very true. You know.

1319
01:12:54.760 --> 01:12:55.760
What are you talking about?

1320
01:12:55.760 --> 01:12:56.439
Do you remember?

1321
01:12:57.560 --> 01:13:01.239
Even a weakling like me can kill once if he's

1322
01:13:01.279 --> 01:13:03.159
got to kill to get rid of the one thing

1323
01:13:03.199 --> 01:13:05.399
that will destroy him.

1324
01:13:05.720 --> 01:13:08.319
Those we are very words.

1325
01:13:09.199 --> 01:13:10.880
And why didn't you kill Walker?

1326
01:13:12.000 --> 01:13:15.279
Because I got to thinking about what you said and

1327
01:13:15.399 --> 01:13:19.319
how right you were, And the more I thought about it,

1328
01:13:19.479 --> 01:13:21.000
the more I realized.

1329
01:13:22.039 --> 01:13:23.439
Realize what.

1330
01:13:25.840 --> 01:13:28.119
That I was headed in the wrong direction.

1331
01:13:30.039 --> 01:13:34.800
You mean by that put that gun away, Harry.

1332
01:13:35.159 --> 01:13:37.319
In order to rid myself with the one thing in

1333
01:13:37.359 --> 01:13:40.680
the world that can destroy me, I had to come

1334
01:13:40.720 --> 01:13:43.359
back here to you, Helen.

1335
01:13:48.720 --> 01:13:52.800
Hello, Hello, what happened there? Hello?

1336
01:13:52.920 --> 01:13:56.279

1338
01:13:57.920 --> 01:13:58.119

1340
01:14:00.039 --> 01:14:01.079
on there? What were those shots?

1341
01:14:01.359 --> 01:14:02.880
Wasn't my wife reporting a murder?

1342
01:14:03.079 --> 01:14:03.319
Yeah?

1343
01:14:03.359 --> 01:14:03.720
She was.

1344
01:14:03.800 --> 01:14:05.560
She gave us all the information, except she didn't tell

1345
01:14:05.640 --> 01:14:06.680
us who was going to be killed.

1346
01:14:06.840 --> 01:14:13.439
Oh did you see officer? Until this very moment, she

1347
01:14:13.600 --> 01:14:14.319
really didn't know.

1360
01:15:09.239 --> 01:15:12.960
on auto light original factory parts because they're engineered to

1361
01:15:13.039 --> 01:15:16.800
fit together perfectly, work together perfectly because they're a perfect team.

1362
01:15:17.640 --> 01:15:21.119
Best wishes for a happy, carefree summer, and remember, friends,

1363
01:15:21.239 --> 01:15:33.199
you're always right with auto light.

1364
01:15:31.159 --> 01:15:32.399
A Spence.

1365
01:15:39.159 --> 01:15:42.239
The Night's Suspense play was produced and edited by William Spear,

1366
01:15:42.560 --> 01:15:46.119
directed by Norman MacDonald. Music for Suspense was composed by

1367
01:15:46.199 --> 01:15:50.880
Lucian Morroweck and conducted by Lynn Murray. Tonight, Love, Honor

1368
01:15:51.000 --> 01:15:53.640
or Murders and original play written for radio by Larry

1369
01:15:53.640 --> 01:15:56.439
Marcus Kathy and Elliot Lewis can be heard in their

1370
01:15:56.479 --> 01:16:01.199
new Columbia record albums Happy Anniversary and Happy Holiday. God Forget.

1371
01:16:01.239 --> 01:16:04.399
Suspense returns to the air Thursday, August thirty first.

1372
01:16:12.920 --> 01:16:18.920
Well, my dear, seems you've finished your tea. But I

1373
01:16:18.960 --> 01:16:25.399
have a sense the night is still quite young. Perhaps

1374
01:16:25.439 --> 01:16:35.000
we should go deeper darker. After all, you only live once,

1375
01:16:37.079 --> 01:16:43.119
So shall we make our way toward another chilling reality?

1376
01:16:45.159 --> 01:16:51.600
Perhaps will dig so deep, will burst through past the

1377
01:16:51.640 --> 01:16:58.119
bone and muscles, and just maybe we'll find the heart

1378
01:16:58.920 --> 01:17:00.000
of Ethan breath.

1379
01:17:00.039 --> 01:17:03.880
Mh, who are the outstanding writers?

1380
01:17:03.920 --> 01:17:08.840
A weird and uncanny story, we'll be calling.

1381
01:17:09.000 --> 01:17:10.239
Where can I hear these stories?

1382
01:17:10.319 --> 01:17:33.359
Listen to the weird circle, out of the past, phantoms

1383
01:17:33.359 --> 01:17:37.159
of a world gone by, Speak again, the immortal tale,

1384
01:17:38.279 --> 01:17:40.560
the heart of Ethan brand.

1385
01:17:51.840 --> 01:17:52.600
What are you doing here?

1386
01:17:52.800 --> 01:17:53.359
What do you want?

1387
01:17:54.279 --> 01:17:57.640
I've come to show a joke from the bottom, A wonderful,

1388
01:17:57.720 --> 01:18:01.399
colossal joke. No man enjoys laughing alone, you know.

1389
01:18:01.479 --> 01:18:02.560
Come in, Come in, Ethan.

1390
01:18:03.199 --> 01:18:06.119
I don't fancy myself laughing at your jokes. Sit a

1391
01:18:06.119 --> 01:18:08.439
few minutes. I have a new fireman coming to keep

1392
01:18:08.479 --> 01:18:10.680
the kill going tonight. I left to go out directly

1393
01:18:10.720 --> 01:18:11.479
and get him started.

1394
01:18:11.840 --> 01:18:15.479
Don't fidget, brother Barton, You've a lifetime to tend the

1395
01:18:15.479 --> 01:18:21.119
fires of the mine kill while I, my good brother Boton,

1396
01:18:22.199 --> 01:18:24.680
I have quite a tale to tell you. In fact,

1397
01:18:24.720 --> 01:18:26.880
you can't relish the joke until you've heard the strange

1398
01:18:26.920 --> 01:18:28.279
story of my wickedness.

1399
01:18:28.399 --> 01:18:29.760
You haven't changed, have you, reason?

1400
01:18:29.880 --> 01:18:30.000
Oh?

1401
01:18:30.079 --> 01:18:32.840
Yes, yes, much for the worse.

1402
01:18:33.960 --> 01:18:36.880
I've learned to manipulate men as a chess player would

1403
01:18:36.920 --> 01:18:40.159
move his pawns. I've made men commit crimes they had

1404
01:18:40.199 --> 01:18:44.199
never dreamed of, and I've enjoyed every moment of my evils.

1405
01:18:44.479 --> 01:18:47.199
Oh, you're still as crazy as ever. What are you

1406
01:18:47.239 --> 01:18:47.760
talking about?

1407
01:18:48.079 --> 01:18:51.479
You'll understand when you hear my story. And by the way, Barton,

1408
01:18:52.239 --> 01:18:55.439
I haven't been able to finish my search. I haven't

1409
01:18:55.520 --> 01:18:58.079
yet found the unpardonable sin.

1410
01:18:58.239 --> 01:19:00.439
You're talking in riddles. Eve, Now I'm a play man.

1411
01:19:00.479 --> 01:19:01.279
Talk to me, simply.

1412
01:19:01.640 --> 01:19:04.800
Don't tell me you've forgotten, forgotten our long talks. As

1413
01:19:04.840 --> 01:19:07.079
we used to watch the fires of the lion killed together.

1414
01:19:07.119 --> 01:19:09.439
I'm not likely to forget working side by side with you.

1415
01:19:10.000 --> 01:19:12.439
I don't recall all you had to say. Though you

1416
01:19:12.560 --> 01:19:15.920
talk wild and crazy most of the time. Sometimes when

1417
01:19:15.960 --> 01:19:17.760
you stood poking the fires and the kill, and the

1418
01:19:17.840 --> 01:19:19.880
sparks flew round, and the red glare lit up that

1419
01:19:19.960 --> 01:19:23.279
cynical smile you always wore you, he looked like the

1420
01:19:23.319 --> 01:19:24.159
devil himself.

1421
01:19:26.680 --> 01:19:29.720
It was just such a time, brother, when my face

1422
01:19:29.720 --> 01:19:32.479
still glowed from the heat of the lion kill, that

1423
01:19:32.520 --> 01:19:37.720
we began to talk of the unpardonable sin. Think back, Button,

1424
01:19:38.800 --> 01:19:41.119
Think back to a certain day when we stood together

1425
01:19:41.199 --> 01:19:43.560
on the side of Mount Greylock, firing the furnace.

1426
01:19:46.199 --> 01:19:48.319
Stand back ethan while I stole in this log. We

1427
01:19:48.359 --> 01:19:50.479
don't need that. Why I was going good knock now,

1428
01:19:50.880 --> 01:19:52.079
all right, the door.

1429
01:19:55.520 --> 01:19:58.760
I like to watch a blazing fire. I guess it's

1430
01:19:58.800 --> 01:20:01.640
about the only excitement I gets. What a life?

1431
01:20:01.800 --> 01:20:03.520
Why don't you go to the cities and get some

1432
01:20:03.640 --> 01:20:04.520
kind of job there.

1433
01:20:05.319 --> 01:20:09.439
I don't want some kind of job. I don't want

1434
01:20:09.479 --> 01:20:11.479
to work just for the sake of working and making money.

1435
01:20:12.239 --> 01:20:13.119
I'm not made like that.

1436
01:20:13.399 --> 01:20:15.920
Sometimes I think, Brother, you're not made like anybody else

1437
01:20:15.960 --> 01:20:16.640
in this world.

1438
01:20:17.239 --> 01:20:21.119
You'll flatter me botton, but there is no doubt that

1439
01:20:21.199 --> 01:20:24.680
I'm unique. Yes, the only thing that would drive me

1440
01:20:24.720 --> 01:20:29.119
to labor industriously would be some unusual, interesting motive.

1441
01:20:28.960 --> 01:20:29.720
A wicked motive.

1442
01:20:29.800 --> 01:20:31.760
If I know you, I have bet my life on

1443
01:20:31.800 --> 01:20:33.760
it before you die, and you're going to commit some

1444
01:20:33.880 --> 01:20:36.399
kind of unpardonable.

1445
01:20:35.760 --> 01:20:44.079
Sin, unpart noable sin? Now what does that mean? Unpartable sin?

1446
01:20:45.439 --> 01:20:48.880
We don't all yield the same temptations. Our weaknesses are

1447
01:20:48.920 --> 01:20:55.520
all different, our sins are different. And which sin is unpartable?

1448
01:20:55.920 --> 01:20:57.039
I guess I don't rightly know.

1449
01:20:57.159 --> 01:20:59.079
But the way I look at it, a man's weakness

1450
01:20:59.119 --> 01:21:01.920
can lead him to say and maybe to an unpardonable sin.

1451
01:21:02.520 --> 01:21:05.960
Now take Willie Sheridan coming along there, riding up horses

1452
01:21:06.000 --> 01:21:08.359
are his folly? Maybe they could lead him to commit

1453
01:21:08.359 --> 01:21:10.760
his unpardonable sin. How he ought to be tended to

1454
01:21:10.800 --> 01:21:12.680
his paper milk, but instead here he comes in the

1455
01:21:12.680 --> 01:21:14.119
middle of the day, horseback riding.

1456
01:21:14.880 --> 01:21:17.319
I why they sure as.

1457
01:21:17.239 --> 01:21:18.279
Willie god hunting?

1458
01:21:18.279 --> 01:21:18.640
Will they.

1459
01:21:21.000 --> 01:21:21.399
Button?

1460
01:21:22.359 --> 01:21:25.680
You've inspired me, You've given me a reason for living.

1461
01:21:26.840 --> 01:21:29.560
I'm going out in search of the unpardonable sin.

1462
01:21:30.000 --> 01:21:32.520
By Hickory, I almost think you mean it. You got

1463
01:21:32.520 --> 01:21:34.239
the same kind of expression you used to have when

1464
01:21:34.279 --> 01:21:36.680
we were kids, and you'd pull wings off of flies

1465
01:21:37.359 --> 01:21:38.279
just to watch them wriggle.

1466
01:21:38.399 --> 01:21:42.479
A minute expediment, Barton, But now I shall embark on

1467
01:21:42.520 --> 01:21:45.640
a master plan, on a large scale expediment and sin.

1468
01:21:47.000 --> 01:21:49.199
Find out a man's weakness, and you can control his

1469
01:21:49.279 --> 01:21:55.079
life and perhaps making commit thee unpardonable sin. It should

1470
01:21:55.159 --> 01:21:57.239
make a lifetime of interesting research.

1471
01:21:56.960 --> 01:22:03.039
No doubt, No doubt. Hey, look look over there in

1472
01:22:03.039 --> 01:22:05.199
the valley. Must be a big fire. There's a lot

1473
01:22:05.199 --> 01:22:05.600
of smoke.

1474
01:22:05.720 --> 01:22:08.000
Yes, looks like it isn't Willie Chardon's place.

1475
01:22:08.199 --> 01:22:10.079
It's just about where it is, all right? Say, if

1476
01:22:10.119 --> 01:22:12.039
there's a fire in his stables, will he'll be fit

1477
01:22:12.079 --> 01:22:12.560
to be tired?

1478
01:22:12.640 --> 01:22:14.199
Will He was on his way home just now.

1479
01:22:14.600 --> 01:22:17.079
I think I'll run over and see the excitement I

1480
01:22:17.159 --> 01:22:22.520
always did like a fire. Surely you haven't forgotten that

1481
01:22:22.600 --> 01:22:26.000
day about the Parton the day Willie's stables burned down.

1482
01:22:26.920 --> 01:22:29.520
When I arrived, will He was running around frantically, not

1483
01:22:29.520 --> 01:22:32.720
accomplishing very much. Some of his horses were trapped, and

1484
01:22:32.760 --> 01:22:36.079
there was nothing anybody could do about it. As I

1485
01:22:36.199 --> 01:22:39.439
watched Willie's mounting hysteria, I suddenly decided I had meant

1486
01:22:39.680 --> 01:22:43.840
what I had said about the unpardonable sin, and I

1487
01:22:43.920 --> 01:22:46.840
realized I could go about my research in a cold

1488
01:22:46.840 --> 01:22:52.399
blooded way. Willie would be my first experiment. He had,

1489
01:22:52.439 --> 01:22:55.159
as we all know, a bad temper, and his fights

1490
01:22:55.159 --> 01:22:58.680
with Tom, his groom, were known around the whole countryside.

1491
01:22:58.920 --> 01:23:03.359
So I went up to when I said, will He

1492
01:23:04.359 --> 01:23:05.840
you know how the fire stopped?

1493
01:23:06.000 --> 01:23:08.399
No, no, no, I give anything you.

1494
01:23:08.399 --> 01:23:11.800
Want to find out must have been somebody's confounded.

1495
01:23:11.279 --> 01:23:14.600
Carelessness or revenge, maybe revenge.

1496
01:23:15.720 --> 01:23:16.239
What do you mean?

1497
01:23:16.640 --> 01:23:17.119
Speak up?

1498
01:23:17.159 --> 01:23:17.359
Man?

1499
01:23:17.640 --> 01:23:19.239
You must know Tom hates you.

1500
01:23:20.239 --> 01:23:22.479
Everybody heard him say he'd get even some day.

1501
01:23:22.960 --> 01:23:23.479
I see you do.

1502
01:23:24.199 --> 01:23:25.239
Yeah it all lads up.

1503
01:23:25.600 --> 01:23:27.359
I had a quarrel with Tom just before I took

1504
01:23:27.359 --> 01:23:28.399
out the New Philly Love.

1505
01:23:29.359 --> 01:23:33.560
Look at Tom leaning against the bench, satisfied smile on

1506
01:23:33.600 --> 01:23:36.479
his face. He's got his revenge all right.

1507
01:23:36.600 --> 01:23:39.159
Why that dirty up haaforts him?

1508
01:23:39.439 --> 01:23:41.319
I kill him now?

1509
01:23:41.359 --> 01:23:42.880
Don't lose your head, will he?

1510
01:23:42.880 --> 01:23:44.399
Hey, what's the matter of relationsbody?

1511
01:23:44.520 --> 01:23:44.840
Stop?

1512
01:23:44.920 --> 01:23:47.399
He's got a picked for will.

1513
01:23:49.880 --> 01:23:50.640
To squat?

1514
01:23:58.640 --> 01:24:01.359
Too bad? Wasn't it Barton that Willie had such a

1515
01:24:01.399 --> 01:24:06.880
bad temper and loved his horses so much. Those weaknesses

1516
01:24:06.960 --> 01:24:11.760
led him to murder. As I stood looking at Tom's body,

1517
01:24:11.800 --> 01:24:15.720
I wondered, was murder the unpardonable sin? But I knew

1518
01:24:15.800 --> 01:24:18.319
that though the law would punish him, most people would

1519
01:24:18.319 --> 01:24:22.079
find it in their hearts to forgive Willie. I would

1520
01:24:22.159 --> 01:24:26.560
have looked further for that unpardonable sin. As I walked

1521
01:24:26.560 --> 01:24:28.439
away from the fire and the crime, and passed the

1522
01:24:28.439 --> 01:24:32.520
burning stables, I suddenly felt that I was two persons,

1523
01:24:33.039 --> 01:24:35.960
all not good and bad as the Morris believe. But

1524
01:24:36.079 --> 01:24:38.760
I felt I was two bad persons in one body.

1525
01:24:40.359 --> 01:24:43.960
I know it sounds fantastic to your matter of fact mind,

1526
01:24:44.760 --> 01:24:47.800
but to me it was clear. One of myselves was

1527
01:24:48.399 --> 01:24:51.920
inexperienced and evil. But I knew I had an older self,

1528
01:24:51.920 --> 01:24:54.680
a second soul, as aged as the world and great

1529
01:24:54.680 --> 01:24:57.319
in the knowledge of men in wickedness. And as I

1530
01:24:57.399 --> 01:25:00.720
walked down the road in the evening shadows, my second

1531
01:25:00.760 --> 01:25:01.560
soul spoke to.

1532
01:25:01.520 --> 01:25:10.560
Me, Ethan, brand you're a rare bird. You're cold, calculating,

1533
01:25:11.359 --> 01:25:16.880
completely without heart. We ought to go far, and if

1534
01:25:16.880 --> 01:25:20.520
you listen to me, I'll set you on top of

1535
01:25:20.520 --> 01:25:21.039
the world.

1536
01:25:21.520 --> 01:25:25.159
That might be interesting. Hollow we began first.

1537
01:25:25.680 --> 01:25:28.239
You must have money, not too much to start with.

1538
01:25:28.880 --> 01:25:36.239
It would look suspicious, Ethan. Your old friend Esther will

1539
01:25:36.319 --> 01:25:36.720
help you.

1540
01:25:37.439 --> 01:25:37.640
Esther.

1541
01:25:38.279 --> 01:25:39.479
Esther's only a clerk in a bank.

1542
01:25:39.800 --> 01:25:45.239
That's what I was thinking. Remember, even find a person's

1543
01:25:45.279 --> 01:25:53.800
weakness and you can control his life. Ethan, you are

1544
01:25:54.079 --> 01:25:57.840
Esther's weakness. Go to Ester and.

1545
01:25:58.079 --> 01:26:03.520
Say I'm not going to see you any more.

1546
01:26:03.680 --> 01:26:03.840
Esther.

1547
01:26:05.159 --> 01:26:06.800
I want to give you a chance to forget me.

1548
01:26:07.279 --> 01:26:08.680
Ethan. I can never do that.

1549
01:26:09.399 --> 01:26:12.840
Goodness knows. I wish I could, but I just can't

1550
01:26:12.840 --> 01:26:17.079
get you out of my mind and my heart I.

1551
01:26:17.079 --> 01:26:21.359
I guess I've never really explained myself. You see, I'm

1552
01:26:21.399 --> 01:26:23.960
not the type to be satisfied with a little cottage

1553
01:26:24.039 --> 01:26:26.279
with a white fence all around and the clothes line

1554
01:26:26.279 --> 01:26:29.000
in the back yard. I want the best, and I

1555
01:26:29.039 --> 01:26:31.600
want my wife to have the best. If I had

1556
01:26:31.600 --> 01:26:34.319
a future and money, i'd ask you to marry me tomorrow, Esther.

1557
01:26:34.760 --> 01:26:39.720
Ethan, you've never said that before. You've never mentioned marriage.

1558
01:26:40.000 --> 01:26:43.960
I've never had the right, Ethan, And now, ironically, the

1559
01:26:44.079 --> 01:26:46.600
chance of a lifetime has come to me. I've an

1560
01:26:46.600 --> 01:26:48.840
opportunity to buy a share in a good business. All

1561
01:26:48.920 --> 01:26:53.239
I need is small capital. But of course I I

1562
01:26:53.279 --> 01:26:54.359
can't even think about it.

1563
01:26:54.600 --> 01:26:56.880
There must be some way to get the money. How

1564
01:26:56.960 --> 01:26:58.199
much do you need, Ethan.

1565
01:26:58.199 --> 01:27:00.680
Ten thousand dollars? Of course i'd need it for a

1566
01:27:00.720 --> 01:27:03.359
short time. Once I had an interest in the business,

1567
01:27:03.359 --> 01:27:05.119
I could borrow money and pay back the ten thousands

1568
01:27:05.159 --> 01:27:05.800
a few mones.

1569
01:27:05.880 --> 01:27:10.039
Yes, of course you could, Ethan. Let me help.

1570
01:27:10.960 --> 01:27:13.479
You know, mother left me quite a little income.

1571
01:27:14.079 --> 01:27:17.840
No, I didn't know that. But you don't think I

1572
01:27:17.920 --> 01:27:19.800
take money from you from a woman.

1573
01:27:19.880 --> 01:27:22.680
Wh I'm not any woman. I'm the woman you're going

1574
01:27:22.720 --> 01:27:27.840
to marry. Please Ethan, Please let me help you, all.

1575
01:27:27.840 --> 01:27:28.359
Right, Esther.

1576
01:27:29.680 --> 01:27:31.760
But I wouldn't take help from any other woman in

1577
01:27:31.760 --> 01:27:36.720
the world. You say, brother, how easy it was to

1578
01:27:36.720 --> 01:27:39.359
get people to do what you want. It was like

1579
01:27:39.399 --> 01:27:43.960
playing a fascinating, mischievous game. That night, as I walked

1580
01:27:44.000 --> 01:27:49.680
home from Esther's in the moonlight, my second self spoke again, you.

1581
01:27:49.920 --> 01:27:55.319
Handle that nicely, Ethan. Esther will have that money just

1582
01:27:55.600 --> 01:27:58.720
when you need it. It'll it just take a little

1583
01:27:58.840 --> 01:28:01.560
time to arrange matters.

1584
01:28:01.880 --> 01:28:03.199
And what do I do now.

1585
01:28:04.279 --> 01:28:09.399
Colin Willie's poor, bewildered, beautiful sister, Grace Sheridan, offer your

1586
01:28:09.560 --> 01:28:13.760
sympathy over the recent tragedy. Grace can be a big

1587
01:28:13.800 --> 01:28:14.439
help to us.

1588
01:28:15.039 --> 01:28:20.960
Yes, yes, that's a brilliant suggestion. I'll see that my

1589
01:28:21.079 --> 01:28:25.239
talk with Grace Sheridan is highly satisfactory and that the

1590
01:28:25.279 --> 01:28:27.960
results are according to plan.

1591
01:28:31.000 --> 01:28:33.199
Awesen. Noight for you to come and see me, Ethan.

1592
01:28:34.239 --> 01:28:38.640
I'm just so confused. Really was so crazy about the horses.

1593
01:28:38.720 --> 01:28:42.079
He neglected the mill. I'm afraid tell you the truth.

1594
01:28:42.119 --> 01:28:42.680
I'm going to be.

1595
01:28:42.720 --> 01:28:44.600
Lucky if I don't have to go into bankruptcy.

1596
01:28:44.760 --> 01:28:47.520
Grace, let me help you. I'd like to put some

1597
01:28:47.520 --> 01:28:49.079
money into the mill, manage.

1598
01:28:48.760 --> 01:28:49.920
It for you.

1599
01:28:49.920 --> 01:28:54.279
You see paper interests me papers used for a thousand purposes.

1600
01:28:54.600 --> 01:28:57.319
It's used all over the world. I'd turn your paper

1601
01:28:57.319 --> 01:28:58.399
mill into a big business.

1602
01:28:58.760 --> 01:28:59.960
You sound like a miracle.

1603
01:29:01.199 --> 01:29:03.399
You really mean this with all my heart.

1604
01:29:04.079 --> 01:29:06.159
Well, how much money can you put into the mail?

1605
01:29:06.239 --> 01:29:07.439
About ten thousand dollars?

1606
01:29:08.279 --> 01:29:11.319
That's fair enough. Then it's settled.

1607
01:29:11.600 --> 01:29:16.079
Fine, here's to my very charming senior partner.

1608
01:29:17.640 --> 01:29:20.279
It's funny, Ethan, that we haven't seen much of each

1609
01:29:20.319 --> 01:29:21.319
other in these years.

1610
01:29:22.199 --> 01:29:23.359
Where have you been all the.

1611
01:29:23.319 --> 01:29:28.520
Time, just waiting, waiting for this day, in this moment,

1612
01:29:29.800 --> 01:29:31.159
And we're going to see a lot of each other

1613
01:29:31.199 --> 01:30:12.640
from now on. Grace, everything happened, Barton, just as I

1614
01:30:12.680 --> 01:30:16.319
had planned. Esther brought me the ten thousand dollars, I

1615
01:30:16.399 --> 01:30:19.439
bought the interest in the mill, and soon the long

1616
01:30:19.520 --> 01:30:22.560
neglected business was going along far better than we had dreamed.

1617
01:30:23.680 --> 01:30:28.439
I became a leading citizen. Then one night, as I

1618
01:30:28.520 --> 01:30:31.159
was turning out the light to go to bed, I

1619
01:30:31.279 --> 01:30:33.000
heard the voice of my second self.

1620
01:30:34.479 --> 01:30:39.600
Even it's time you made some political connections for you

1621
01:30:39.680 --> 01:30:43.560
and I are going farther than this small town in

1622
01:30:43.600 --> 01:30:44.439
this state.

1623
01:30:44.920 --> 01:30:47.439
Yes, I've been thinking about that.

1624
01:30:47.720 --> 01:30:51.680
Your man, of course, is Jake Samson. You must make

1625
01:30:51.760 --> 01:30:55.680
him indebted to you. You've heard the gossip about Samson,

1626
01:30:55.800 --> 01:30:56.600
haven't you even?

1627
01:30:57.159 --> 01:31:01.439
Yes, everybody talks about it. Jake's a big man, the

1628
01:31:01.439 --> 01:31:04.920
political boss in this state. Need could go far if

1629
01:31:04.920 --> 01:31:07.840
it weren't for a woman, the woman he can't get

1630
01:31:07.920 --> 01:31:08.239
rid of.

1631
01:31:08.880 --> 01:31:12.800
Jake will be at the Chateau, the gambling casino outside

1632
01:31:12.840 --> 01:31:13.960
town tomorrow night.

1633
01:31:14.479 --> 01:31:18.840
And you must make a friend, a loyal, grateful friend,

1634
01:31:19.359 --> 01:31:19.640
out of.

1635
01:31:19.680 --> 01:31:24.760
Jake Sampson, at any cost, Ethan, At any cost.

1636
01:31:26.520 --> 01:31:29.399
What better place Barton to study men than at the

1637
01:31:29.439 --> 01:31:33.000
tables of chance? Perhaps there I thought I would find

1638
01:31:33.000 --> 01:31:36.880
the unpardonable sin. So the next night I went over

1639
01:31:36.880 --> 01:31:39.840
to the Chateau, and I finally found Jake Sampson brooding

1640
01:31:39.880 --> 01:31:47.279
of a glass at Brandy. Hello, Ethan, brand join me,

1641
01:31:48.279 --> 01:31:51.880
help me drown my soul. You certainly do look despondent, Sampson.

1642
01:31:52.399 --> 01:31:58.239
What's the trouble. I'm putty, just putty, you mean putty

1643
01:31:58.359 --> 01:32:02.760
in a woman's hands. You're a mind reader, then, I

1644
01:32:02.760 --> 01:32:06.560
guess everybody knows my personal affairs. I can be as

1645
01:32:06.560 --> 01:32:09.479
hard as nails about everything else in the world. Except

1646
01:32:09.640 --> 01:32:13.560
a woman. It's the old story, isn't it. You've cease

1647
01:32:13.680 --> 01:32:16.399
to care and the woman still wrapped up in you.

1648
01:32:16.760 --> 01:32:19.800
Yes, she's not come along with me. You know what

1649
01:32:19.840 --> 01:32:20.119
I mean.

1650
01:32:21.000 --> 01:32:25.239
I've gone up and be Bett has stayed just the same.

1651
01:32:26.279 --> 01:32:28.119
I tried to explain it to her again tonight, but

1652
01:32:28.880 --> 01:32:32.159
it's no use. I'm a man doomed to the woman

1653
01:32:32.159 --> 01:32:35.359
who doesn't want you. Ought to let me take over.

1654
01:32:36.720 --> 01:32:41.199
I use direct, hard methods. Uh, she's right over there,

1655
01:32:41.239 --> 01:32:44.640
even that little blonde in a red dress at the

1656
01:32:44.760 --> 01:32:50.359
roulette table. I say, well, Sampson, maybe I can do

1657
01:32:50.399 --> 01:32:54.119
you a favor. I'd never forget it, Ethan Brand, I'll

1658
01:32:54.159 --> 01:32:59.600
never forget it. You're not having much luck tonight. Value

1659
01:32:59.640 --> 01:33:01.640
that that this night or any other night.

1660
01:33:02.560 --> 01:33:03.920
Say how do you know my name?

1661
01:33:04.520 --> 01:33:08.319
I asked somebody. I think you're very attractive.

1662
01:33:08.960 --> 01:33:12.119
Save the sugar. Maybe you'll bring me luck.

1663
01:33:13.319 --> 01:33:15.520
Mister, all I got let in the world is fifty dollars.

1664
01:33:16.439 --> 01:33:18.159
Well, I do put it all on the black or

1665
01:33:18.159 --> 01:33:18.800
just part of it.

1666
01:33:18.960 --> 01:33:21.920
I can't make such an important decision for you. But

1667
01:33:22.000 --> 01:33:25.720
then you see, I am a gambler. I gamble all

1668
01:33:26.560 --> 01:33:26.960
or nothing.

1669
01:33:27.439 --> 01:33:28.319
Yeah, me too.

1670
01:33:29.079 --> 01:33:31.399
Here here's fifty bucks all on the black.

1671
01:33:32.359 --> 01:33:34.560
Now watch that old wheel.

1672
01:33:41.039 --> 01:33:45.239
Wait wait, I've lost everything?

1673
01:33:47.000 --> 01:33:48.920
Well, goodbye, mister Hope.

1674
01:33:48.960 --> 01:33:49.840
You have better luck than I.

1675
01:33:50.039 --> 01:33:54.680
Oh just a minute better, let me come along, why not?

1676
01:33:57.159 --> 01:34:00.840
Hey, the lake looks cold on it. Come all, let's

1677
01:34:00.840 --> 01:34:06.000
walk down there, all right? Say, don't you ask about me?

1678
01:34:06.800 --> 01:34:08.159
When you found out about my name?

1679
01:34:08.840 --> 01:34:12.039
Jake Sampson? I asked him if he minded if I

1680
01:34:12.159 --> 01:34:14.960
tried to cut in? What do he say?

1681
01:34:15.800 --> 01:34:17.600
Hoddy? Are he mad?

1682
01:34:17.880 --> 01:34:21.880
No? No, not at all. He said that you and

1683
01:34:21.920 --> 01:34:25.800
he had parted. Jake seemed glad that I was interested

1684
01:34:25.800 --> 01:34:29.760
in you. Yes, yes, Jake was full of plans tonight.

1685
01:34:30.520 --> 01:34:32.800
Of course. You know he's going to be Maddy tomorrow.

1686
01:34:33.479 --> 01:34:35.319
She's an awfully nice woman and she'll be a big

1687
01:34:35.359 --> 01:34:35.600
help to.

1688
01:34:35.720 --> 01:34:37.920
Wait a minute, say that again?

1689
01:34:39.439 --> 01:34:47.520
No, no, don't I get that unknown something like Christmas coming.

1690
01:34:49.239 --> 01:34:52.399
But Jake gott of told me himself, you're no right.

1691
01:34:52.359 --> 01:34:56.239
Oh, I'm awfully sorry. Perhaps Jake just didn't have the

1692
01:34:56.560 --> 01:34:57.840
courage to tell him go.

1693
01:34:57.880 --> 01:35:02.439
Away, mister leameil alone a walk for.

1694
01:35:02.560 --> 01:35:06.800
Myself, all right, you h you won't get lost down

1695
01:35:06.800 --> 01:35:09.680
there by the lake. It's slippery on those wet Rocks.

1696
01:35:10.359 --> 01:35:11.640
Thanks for telling me.

1697
01:35:12.399 --> 01:35:13.439
Well, goodbye, by Bet.

1698
01:35:14.920 --> 01:35:20.039
Goodbye, Harry, Ethan, Harry, so you won't be caught near

1699
01:35:20.079 --> 01:35:24.159
the lake. No one must see you running away from drowning.

1700
01:35:26.640 --> 01:35:29.920
After that bets suicide, Jake Sampson began to make great

1701
01:35:29.920 --> 01:35:34.439
political plans for me, so Biden. I had two things

1702
01:35:34.520 --> 01:35:38.079
I needed for advancement, a growing business and political backings.

1703
01:35:39.199 --> 01:35:41.239
And one evening Esther came to my house.

1704
01:35:44.119 --> 01:35:47.199
I've got to have that money back quickly. You see,

1705
01:35:46.800 --> 01:35:49.479
I I stole it. I stole it from the bank.

1706
01:35:49.520 --> 01:35:51.720
I took it and dribbles and fixed the books and

1707
01:35:51.720 --> 01:35:53.840
it wouldn't find out. But in a few days the

1708
01:35:53.840 --> 01:35:54.680
accountants are coming.

1709
01:35:54.720 --> 01:35:58.279
You told me it was money from your mother's estate.

1710
01:35:58.439 --> 01:35:59.680
I lied.

1711
01:36:00.359 --> 01:36:02.680
I wanted you to have the money. I thought we

1712
01:36:02.680 --> 01:36:03.640
were going to be married.

1713
01:36:03.720 --> 01:36:06.000
We are going to be married, Ester very soon now,

1714
01:36:06.720 --> 01:36:08.920
and I'll get you that money by noon to morrow.

1715
01:36:09.039 --> 01:36:11.439
Oh Ethan, I knew you wouldn't let me down.

1716
01:36:11.520 --> 01:36:14.479
I knew it. By I've got to go nad yet.

1717
01:36:15.119 --> 01:36:17.960
Good bye, good bye Esther.

1718
01:36:20.119 --> 01:36:23.640
Ethan. You must not marry Esther.

1719
01:36:24.119 --> 01:36:26.439
I've never, for a moment seriously considered it.

1720
01:36:26.840 --> 01:36:29.479
Grace is the woman for you, Ethan.

1721
01:36:29.319 --> 01:36:32.199
I know that, don't I know? I gebtful only ship

1722
01:36:32.239 --> 01:36:34.680
of the mill from Grace. Besides, she has the social

1723
01:36:34.680 --> 01:36:35.600
connections I need.

1724
01:36:35.760 --> 01:36:39.399
You must get rid of Vester some safe way. She's

1725
01:36:39.439 --> 01:36:42.760
the kind of woman who would be troublesome, the kind

1726
01:36:42.880 --> 01:36:46.800
would fight for you hang on to the end. You

1727
01:36:46.960 --> 01:36:51.159
must get rid of Ester without acting yourself. Yes, but

1728
01:36:51.359 --> 01:36:59.520
how how remember your rule, Ethan control people through their weaknesses. Now,

1729
01:37:00.439 --> 01:37:06.720
Charles Townshend, the president of Vesta's Bank, loves power, power

1730
01:37:06.800 --> 01:37:07.560
over people.

1731
01:37:08.199 --> 01:37:12.039
He likes to make people suffer. He acts quick, and

1732
01:37:12.119 --> 01:37:13.560
he has no mercy.

1733
01:37:13.840 --> 01:37:18.079
Go to Townsend now tonight and say to him.

1734
01:37:19.479 --> 01:37:22.079
Mister Townshend, I've come as a friend to do you

1735
01:37:22.159 --> 01:37:25.359
a favor, but in return, I'll expect one from you.

1736
01:37:25.880 --> 01:37:28.640
Now the can's fan where it is, Miss Brand, You

1737
01:37:28.720 --> 01:37:30.640
must keep the source of the information. I'll give you

1738
01:37:30.720 --> 01:37:33.159
a secret. My name must be out of it.

1739
01:37:34.079 --> 01:37:35.600
That's a reasonable request.

1740
01:37:36.079 --> 01:37:39.479
But should you just happen to forget and just of course,

1741
01:37:39.560 --> 01:37:43.199
by accident mention my name, I'm afraid I'd be forced

1742
01:37:43.239 --> 01:37:44.680
to take my banking business elsewhere.

1743
01:37:44.800 --> 01:37:48.439
Why really, mister Brand, now er, what do you take

1744
01:37:48.479 --> 01:37:51.399
me for now? What'tch on your mind?

1745
01:37:51.880 --> 01:37:54.479
I just thought you might like to know one of

1746
01:37:54.560 --> 01:37:57.119
your clerks stolen ten thousand dollars.

1747
01:37:57.439 --> 01:37:59.319
But who which one is it?

1748
01:37:59.720 --> 01:38:03.039
Esther? I'd advise you to get to the bank early

1749
01:38:03.079 --> 01:38:07.560
in the morning, mister Tomsen, and check the books. Check

1750
01:38:07.720 --> 01:38:14.399
the books early, well, brother Barton. That brings us up

1751
01:38:14.439 --> 01:38:19.000
to date. I should be sitting very pretty. Indeed, Esther

1752
01:38:19.199 --> 01:38:22.079
is out of my way in the state penitentiary. I'm

1753
01:38:22.119 --> 01:38:24.880
engaged to Grace Sheridan. I shall be owner of a

1754
01:38:24.920 --> 01:38:30.680
prosperous mill. And Jake Sampson has great political plans for me. Yes, Barton,

1755
01:38:31.680 --> 01:38:34.079
I'm on my way to that coveted place on top

1756
01:38:34.119 --> 01:38:36.880
of the world. A mad eaven stark mad you and

1757
01:38:36.960 --> 01:38:40.239
your second self get out of my house. But wait, brother,

1758
01:38:41.119 --> 01:38:45.319
you haven't heard the end. You haven't shared my joke.

1759
01:38:47.000 --> 01:38:50.319
I'm on my way to the top, but I'm never

1760
01:38:50.439 --> 01:38:55.520
going to get there. I came here from doctor Myers.

1761
01:38:56.399 --> 01:39:00.760
I haven't been feeling very well lately. I made him

1762
01:39:00.800 --> 01:39:04.680
tell me the truth. I've but a few months to live.

1763
01:39:06.239 --> 01:39:09.279
I'll never realize any of the glory ahead for me.

1764
01:39:10.319 --> 01:39:13.640
Isn't it a joke, brother, A colossal joke.

1765
01:39:14.439 --> 01:39:18.159
What are you made of, Ethan? Don't even care about yourself?

1766
01:39:18.199 --> 01:39:18.439
Do you?

1767
01:39:19.439 --> 01:39:22.119
Hasn't seemed to mean anything that you're going.

1768
01:39:21.920 --> 01:39:25.199
To die, not a thing. I don't know why. I

1769
01:39:25.199 --> 01:39:28.640
haven't any feeling, any emotion botten, But there it is.

1770
01:39:29.560 --> 01:39:32.800
I haven't well. I've had quite clear, haven't i?

1771
01:39:32.840 --> 01:39:33.119
Brother?

1772
01:39:34.199 --> 01:39:37.399
And to think it all started over a search, A

1773
01:39:37.520 --> 01:39:42.000
search for the unpartonable sin, which I never did find.

1774
01:39:42.439 --> 01:39:46.800
Eathen you caused a girl to steel, drove a woman

1775
01:39:46.840 --> 01:39:49.840
to suicide, and ate down a man to murder. You've

1776
01:39:49.840 --> 01:39:53.319
found the unpardonable sin, Eathan. You've committed it by deliberately

1777
01:39:53.399 --> 01:39:57.479
leading people into temptation. The unpardonable sin, Eathon, is in

1778
01:39:57.560 --> 01:40:01.560
your own breast. Now please out. I can't stand beside

1779
01:40:01.560 --> 01:40:02.119
of you any.

1780
01:40:02.000 --> 01:40:06.319
Longer, all right bottom, If that's what you feel, I

1781
01:40:06.319 --> 01:40:08.680
think I'll go up on the side of Mount Graylock

1782
01:40:08.800 --> 01:40:11.840
and have a last look on the scenes of my boyhood,

1783
01:40:12.399 --> 01:40:14.479
see our rustic clime kill once more.

1784
01:40:14.800 --> 01:40:17.640
And I shan't be going there. I knew fireman knows

1785
01:40:17.640 --> 01:40:21.199
his business anyway. I don't want to see you again even.

1786
01:40:21.439 --> 01:40:24.319
But perhaps brother, perhaps you shall.

1787
01:40:28.479 --> 01:40:33.119
It didn't turn out even as we plan, did it?

1788
01:40:33.640 --> 01:40:37.680
No, but I have decided what I must do.

1789
01:40:38.399 --> 01:40:42.039
Yes, yes, it's the best way.

1790
01:40:43.439 --> 01:40:53.880
Come, come ahead, No, no, we got find fireman asleep

1791
01:40:53.880 --> 01:40:54.279
on the job.

1792
01:40:54.319 --> 01:40:54.880
We got.

1793
01:40:57.279 --> 01:40:59.279
Oh, oh, this is a bad head I have.

1794
01:41:00.039 --> 01:41:02.279
Yeah, your brother, your brother Ethan.

1795
01:41:02.359 --> 01:41:03.840
He he shocks me in the jar.

1796
01:41:03.960 --> 01:41:05.520
He didn't have a plastic fool.

1797
01:41:06.000 --> 01:41:07.960
Your brother wanted to stir the fires in the kill,

1798
01:41:08.039 --> 01:41:09.399
but I wouldn't let him.

1799
01:41:09.720 --> 01:41:12.600
The fires was just right. I didn't want no interference.

1800
01:41:13.039 --> 01:41:14.079
So he shocked me.

1801
01:41:14.159 --> 01:41:15.720
He did. I.

1802
01:41:15.279 --> 01:41:17.199
Oh, I guess I've been out for some time.

1803
01:41:17.239 --> 01:41:17.800
I look at that.

1804
01:41:18.119 --> 01:41:20.479
The idiot left the furnace door open. Now wager the

1805
01:41:20.479 --> 01:41:25.199
fires are out? Joe, Joe, what's the matter?

1806
01:41:25.279 --> 01:41:25.439
Now?

1807
01:41:25.520 --> 01:41:25.960
Come here?

1808
01:41:26.319 --> 01:41:28.159
Look look inside the furnace.

1809
01:41:28.279 --> 01:41:34.239
Ah. Oh, the saint's preservers the skeleton, a white skeleton

1810
01:41:34.279 --> 01:41:35.680
of a man lying there on.

1811
01:41:35.640 --> 01:41:38.279
The red hot coals. Here you're outside the door. On

1812
01:41:38.319 --> 01:41:40.640
the ground is the man's hat. Maybe you should profess

1813
01:41:40.720 --> 01:41:41.960
I belonged the Ethan brand.

1814
01:41:42.520 --> 01:41:42.680
Ah.

1815
01:41:42.920 --> 01:41:44.560
He must have been a madman for sure.

1816
01:41:44.640 --> 01:41:44.800
Though.

1817
01:41:44.880 --> 01:41:47.920
Hand me those problems and here they are.

1818
01:41:49.199 --> 01:41:51.960
But what do you find to know? Are on?

1819
01:41:52.039 --> 01:41:54.439
A skeleton is a hard object. There's a lump on

1820
01:41:54.479 --> 01:41:54.880
the breast.

1821
01:41:55.359 --> 01:42:00.199
Ah, so there is white wings, the shape of a

1822
01:42:00.479 --> 01:42:01.439
of a human heart.

1823
01:42:01.479 --> 01:42:09.680
Dear, look at it. It's it's marble. It's a marble heart.

1824
01:42:20.079 --> 01:42:23.560
From the time one pages of the past, we have

1825
01:42:23.680 --> 01:42:29.399
brought you the immortal tale the heart of Ethan brand

1826
01:42:30.399 --> 01:42:33.000
bell keeper all the.

1827
01:42:33.000 --> 01:42:58.399
Bell, my dear, I hope you don't mind my saying,

1828
01:42:58.520 --> 01:43:04.439
but m hm, for how dark and cold it can be,

1829
01:43:05.920 --> 01:43:13.159
you look positively, radiant, color in your cheeks, a gleam

1830
01:43:13.319 --> 01:43:17.319
in your eye. I'd be lying if I said I

1831
01:43:17.479 --> 01:43:25.000
wasn't jealous, but also very happy for you. I can't

1832
01:43:25.039 --> 01:43:31.159
remember the last time I felt so effervescent when I

1833
01:43:31.399 --> 01:43:45.960
possessed that lovely look.

1834
01:43:52.479 --> 01:43:56.079
I am a whistler, and I know many things. Or

1835
01:43:56.119 --> 01:43:59.800
I walk by night. I know many strange tales hidden

1836
01:43:59.800 --> 01:44:01.760
in the hearts of men and women who have stepped

1837
01:44:01.760 --> 01:44:05.840
into the shadows. Yes, I know the nameless terrors of

1838
01:44:05.880 --> 01:44:07.439
which they dare not speak.

1839
01:44:10.439 --> 01:44:11.479
Good night, frankscribe.

1840
01:44:11.640 --> 01:44:16.000
It's the whistler strange story, the lovely look.

1841
01:44:18.960 --> 01:44:21.319
It began quietly, matter of factly.

1842
01:44:21.800 --> 01:44:24.199
Charles Belden would have found it difficult to trace it

1843
01:44:24.239 --> 01:44:26.800
back to the exact moment when he began to feel

1844
01:44:26.840 --> 01:44:29.800
as he did toward the girl. Certainly it wasn't love

1845
01:44:29.840 --> 01:44:30.520
at first.

1846
01:44:30.279 --> 01:44:33.159
Tight somehow he could still tell himself that he was

1847
01:44:33.199 --> 01:44:34.399
beyond that sort of thing.

1848
01:44:35.000 --> 01:44:38.079
That is, a respectable married man and the confident manager

1849
01:44:38.119 --> 01:44:41.199
of the London importing firm founded by his wife's father.

1850
01:44:41.760 --> 01:44:43.439
He'd accomplished a certain reputation.

1851
01:44:44.479 --> 01:44:46.920
But he did remember the first time they met, some

1852
01:44:47.079 --> 01:44:50.520
of the words they spoke, the way she looked at it.

1853
01:44:50.520 --> 01:44:51.680
It was a Sunday.

1854
01:44:51.279 --> 01:44:54.079
Morning, and out near the front gate, the fog parted

1855
01:44:54.119 --> 01:44:57.840
momentarily drew back like a soft gray curtain, and there

1856
01:44:58.000 --> 01:44:58.439
she was.

1857
01:45:01.399 --> 01:45:04.279
She came walking up the road, hesitated as you.

1858
01:45:04.479 --> 01:45:07.600
Discovered one another, silently and then.

1859
01:45:09.840 --> 01:45:14.039
Oh hello, I'm sorry, but I've been walking forever, it seems.

1860
01:45:14.520 --> 01:45:16.439
I wonder if you could direct me. I'm trying to

1861
01:45:16.439 --> 01:45:17.640
find the Belgian residence.

1862
01:45:18.079 --> 01:45:20.880
Oh well, I'm Charles Belden.

1863
01:45:21.359 --> 01:45:24.479
Oh, mister Belden. Of course you don't know me, but

1864
01:45:24.600 --> 01:45:26.479
I came in response to the ad regarding a.

1865
01:45:26.479 --> 01:45:31.800
Housekeeper or you didn't write missus Belden talk to her

1866
01:45:31.880 --> 01:45:32.920
my telephone.

1867
01:45:33.119 --> 01:45:36.319
No, no, I thought it was bestin meet her, talk

1868
01:45:36.359 --> 01:45:37.159
to her in person.

1869
01:45:38.319 --> 01:45:42.079
Yes, yeah, well, along I believe she's back from her

1870
01:45:42.079 --> 01:45:44.560
morning stroke, the daily ritual with her.

1871
01:45:44.560 --> 01:45:46.800
You know we're here.

1872
01:45:47.279 --> 01:45:48.279
I'll take you as your case.

1873
01:45:49.279 --> 01:45:52.159
You're very kind, mister Belwin, not at all.

1874
01:45:55.319 --> 01:45:56.640
It's strange, isn't the child?

1875
01:45:56.760 --> 01:45:58.960
The effect of that brief moment of silence when you

1876
01:45:59.039 --> 01:46:02.039
first caught sight of her, and a few minutes later

1877
01:46:02.079 --> 01:46:04.920
you find yourself oddly interested in the outcome of Helen's

1878
01:46:05.000 --> 01:46:05.960
questioning the.

1879
01:46:05.960 --> 01:46:07.039
Interview with Glorie.

1880
01:46:07.079 --> 01:46:10.479
Ma'am Laurie Edgeley, I read of your need and the courier.

1881
01:46:11.159 --> 01:46:13.720
I know I should have thought of references, but if

1882
01:46:13.760 --> 01:46:18.199
you have no one else from mine, we have we Helen. No, however,

1883
01:46:18.279 --> 01:46:21.279
I'd appreciate a few days trial. Missus Belden.

1884
01:46:23.640 --> 01:46:24.119
Very well.

1885
01:46:24.319 --> 01:46:27.960
We'll try us for a week. Oh, thank you, ma'am.

1886
01:46:28.000 --> 01:46:29.119
And you, mister Belden.

1887
01:46:32.840 --> 01:46:35.319
The way she looked at you, that it isn't the child,

1888
01:46:35.840 --> 01:46:39.560
Glorie's gentle, lovely look. It leaders in your mind, fading

1889
01:46:39.600 --> 01:46:41.359
in and out of focus as you think about it,

1890
01:46:41.439 --> 01:46:45.640
consider its meaning. Somehow, it's more than a grateful grant's child.

1891
01:46:45.800 --> 01:46:48.439
You're certain of it, and it remains with you all

1892
01:46:48.479 --> 01:46:50.800
through the days that follow, through the dull hours at

1893
01:46:50.800 --> 01:46:52.560
the office, and then one.

1894
01:46:52.560 --> 01:46:53.680
Night as you arrive home.

1895
01:46:57.199 --> 01:47:01.760
Why what is it, Helen, cho that young woman.

1896
01:47:02.000 --> 01:47:03.199
We've got to get rid of her.

1897
01:47:03.720 --> 01:47:06.520
Laurie written, she satisfactory.

1898
01:47:05.920 --> 01:47:07.359
And the housekeeper she's excellent.

1899
01:47:08.600 --> 01:47:09.720
And I don't understand.

1900
01:47:09.840 --> 01:47:13.279
It happened early this afternoon, oh Charles, would upset me?

1901
01:47:13.399 --> 01:47:15.319
So Missus Wilton drove up from the door.

1902
01:47:15.880 --> 01:47:18.239
Body, you can to discuss the elections of the club.

1903
01:47:18.520 --> 01:47:20.800
You know, I'm running for the presidency and I'm coughing.

1904
01:47:20.520 --> 01:47:21.079
On her support.

1905
01:47:21.239 --> 01:47:23.399
All right, but what happened?

1906
01:47:23.479 --> 01:47:27.119
But Laurie didn't answer the door. I finally had to

1907
01:47:27.119 --> 01:47:27.960
do it myself.

1908
01:47:29.000 --> 01:47:31.279
Is that all, Helen?

1909
01:47:31.439 --> 01:47:33.279
The girl simply hasn't caught on to the.

1910
01:47:33.279 --> 01:47:35.760
Routine of things, Isn't that I'm trying to tell you?

1911
01:47:36.199 --> 01:47:36.880
I put to her?

1912
01:47:36.880 --> 01:47:40.920
And Missus Wilson is gone, Charles. She asked, if if

1913
01:47:40.920 --> 01:47:44.119
she did everything else to our satisfaction, would we mind

1914
01:47:44.119 --> 01:47:48.239
if she didn't answer the door or take telephone calls?

1915
01:47:48.279 --> 01:47:48.359
What?

1916
01:47:49.000 --> 01:47:50.399
Naturally? I demanded an.

1917
01:47:50.239 --> 01:47:53.000
Explanation, Well did you give one?

1918
01:47:53.079 --> 01:47:54.159
He doesn't satisfatment?

1919
01:47:54.359 --> 01:47:55.159
Not to me, Charles.

1920
01:47:55.159 --> 01:47:55.760
What did she tell you?

1921
01:47:56.039 --> 01:47:56.199
Oh?

1922
01:47:56.279 --> 01:47:57.479
A wild tale?

1923
01:47:57.560 --> 01:48:00.600
Something about coming out here to get away from someone. Oh,

1924
01:48:00.720 --> 01:48:03.119
a man, he's in love with her. She professes to

1925
01:48:03.159 --> 01:48:05.840
be terrified of him, say that he's threatened to.

1926
01:48:05.880 --> 01:48:08.880
Chither her beneath her partner.

1927
01:48:09.960 --> 01:48:11.359
Charles, and I'm all along.

1928
01:48:11.159 --> 01:48:12.159
About leading your way out.

1929
01:48:12.159 --> 01:48:15.880
You're alone with her, child I'll never understand you. You're

1930
01:48:15.960 --> 01:48:21.359
caereless of me, thoughtless, disinterested in everything, even my father's company. No,

1931
01:48:21.520 --> 01:48:26.600
you're going to talk to that girl childish. Oh, I'm sorry,

1932
01:48:26.640 --> 01:48:31.520
I know it's all right. Come in, I'm going to bed, Charles,

1933
01:48:32.319 --> 01:48:34.760
good night, good night, missus belden.

1934
01:48:37.119 --> 01:48:42.359
Uh lor. Yes, mister bel Lory, we have just been talking.

1935
01:48:42.399 --> 01:48:47.119
And yes, and she this is Belton, told me how.

1936
01:48:50.119 --> 01:49:00.439
How well you did your work today. It's all right, Loie.

1937
01:49:00.800 --> 01:49:01.439
Now I'll get that.

1938
01:49:02.359 --> 01:49:04.239
You don't have to answer the firms of the front

1939
01:49:04.239 --> 01:49:08.920
door everhem and you're going to be all right right here.

1940
01:49:09.560 --> 01:49:12.560
Oh, thank you, mister Billings, thank you very much.

1941
01:49:30.920 --> 01:49:33.800
In just a minute, the whistler will continue tonight's story.

1942
01:49:34.399 --> 01:49:36.239
All of us are proud of our hometowns, and right

1943
01:49:36.359 --> 01:49:39.119
we saw in this brief moment. Before we continue with

1944
01:49:39.159 --> 01:49:41.479
our program, we'd like to offer a salute to one

1945
01:49:41.520 --> 01:49:44.760
of our hometowns in America, New York City, hometown to

1946
01:49:44.880 --> 01:49:47.159
more people than any other in the world.

1947
01:49:47.479 --> 01:49:48.800
Its history is pretty well known.

1948
01:49:49.119 --> 01:49:51.399
How it was supposedly bought for twenty four dollars worth

1949
01:49:51.399 --> 01:49:54.079
of trinkets from the Indians, How it started under the Dutch,

1950
01:49:54.239 --> 01:49:56.479
went to the British, and passed to the young United States.

1951
01:49:56.479 --> 01:49:59.880
After the Revolutionary War, it was our national capital for

1952
01:50:00.039 --> 01:50:03.960
five years, and George Washington was inaugurated there. Today it's

1953
01:50:04.000 --> 01:50:06.920
not only the biggest, but probably the busiest and noisiest

1954
01:50:06.920 --> 01:50:10.000
place in the world. Much of its growth and prosperity

1955
01:50:10.039 --> 01:50:12.520
is due to New York Harbor. The port clears more

1956
01:50:12.560 --> 01:50:15.439
than five thousand vessels a year and ships almost half

1957
01:50:15.439 --> 01:50:17.279
of the entire trade of the United States.

1958
01:50:18.159 --> 01:50:20.560
But New York City is many things to many people.

1959
01:50:21.159 --> 01:50:24.680
It's not just San Francisco multiplied by ten or Chicago

1960
01:50:24.800 --> 01:50:28.920
multiplied by three. It's Wall streetom Harlem, the Statue of Liberty,

1961
01:50:28.960 --> 01:50:32.319
and Greenwich Village. It's Broadway, otherwise known as the Main

1962
01:50:32.439 --> 01:50:35.640
Stem or the Great White Way. More theaters are crowded

1963
01:50:35.640 --> 01:50:38.239
in that area than any place in the world. It's

1964
01:50:38.239 --> 01:50:41.319
the Empire State Building, the world's palest structure. It's a

1965
01:50:41.359 --> 01:50:44.239
parade up Fifth Avenue and the baseball game between the

1966
01:50:44.239 --> 01:50:47.600
New York Yankees and the Brooklyn Dodgers. It's the Metropolitan

1967
01:50:47.680 --> 01:50:52.000
Opera and Madison Square Gardens. It's Rockefeller Center, occupying twelve

1968
01:50:52.039 --> 01:50:55.119
acres and fifteen buildings, and it's the headquarters of the

1969
01:50:55.199 --> 01:50:58.760
United Nations. It's the native New Yorker who never moves

1970
01:50:58.760 --> 01:51:01.239
off his block and the imigrants who came from halfway

1971
01:51:01.239 --> 01:51:04.279
around the world. It's the George Washington Bridge and the

1972
01:51:04.279 --> 01:51:07.399
Holland Tunnel and Grant's Tomb. And when you've said all this,

1973
01:51:07.920 --> 01:51:10.039
you've still only scraped the surface of what New York

1974
01:51:10.119 --> 01:51:12.920
is like, what it's all about. But one thing is

1975
01:51:12.960 --> 01:51:15.520
for sure, the people of New York are proud of

1976
01:51:15.520 --> 01:51:18.159
their hometown and proud of the part it has played

1977
01:51:18.159 --> 01:51:19.279
in the building of America.

1978
01:51:19.880 --> 01:51:22.279
And now back to the Whistler.

1979
01:51:33.880 --> 01:51:35.680
You couldn't dismiss her, could you. Child.

1980
01:51:36.199 --> 01:51:38.680
Temporarily, you win Helen over to your way of thinking

1981
01:51:38.680 --> 01:51:42.760
when Laurie stays, But week after week, the contest between

1982
01:51:42.800 --> 01:51:45.319
you and Helen is renewed, and her patience reaching the

1983
01:51:45.319 --> 01:51:45.960
breaking part.

1984
01:51:46.840 --> 01:51:48.239
But it doesn't seem the matter.

1985
01:51:48.079 --> 01:51:52.000
Does it, Because you know that Laurie understands and all

1986
01:51:52.039 --> 01:51:55.319
the time, the strange unspoken bond between you is increased

1987
01:51:55.840 --> 01:51:58.760
as she attends to your every wish, hangs on every

1988
01:51:58.760 --> 01:52:02.039
word you say. You wonder how long it will go on,

1989
01:52:02.199 --> 01:52:05.439
where it will leave. Then the answer finally comes in

1990
01:52:05.439 --> 01:52:07.079
a phone call to your offer is.

1991
01:52:07.359 --> 01:52:08.199
Down and calling Sair.

1992
01:52:08.399 --> 01:52:09.000
Still here.

1993
01:52:10.439 --> 01:52:12.680
Here, Helen, Charles, I want you to drop around to

1994
01:52:12.680 --> 01:52:15.600
the employment agency sometime today and see about another housekeeper.

1995
01:52:15.760 --> 01:52:19.039
Another Helen, What you mean, what's the matter with me?

1996
01:52:19.159 --> 01:52:21.319
I can't stand it any longer. I won't have Laurie

1997
01:52:21.359 --> 01:52:27.600
around another minute. I've just charged what I'm just not satisfied.

1998
01:52:27.039 --> 01:52:28.079
Because the ragment at all.

1999
01:52:29.279 --> 01:52:30.560
I don't care to discuss it any further.

2000
01:52:30.640 --> 01:52:31.399
Not have I the time?

2001
01:52:31.560 --> 01:52:33.319
I'm you at the club in half an hour the elections,

2002
01:52:33.319 --> 01:52:36.920
you know, I make up my mind. I told Lry

2003
01:52:37.000 --> 01:52:39.439
she can say jump one more week and that's all.

2004
01:52:43.239 --> 01:52:43.760
For a moment.

2005
01:52:43.840 --> 01:52:48.039
You sit there, stune, then slowly replace the receiver, and

2006
01:52:48.159 --> 01:52:50.800
as you sit back, trying to think it out, you

2007
01:52:50.920 --> 01:52:54.439
realize Laurie is everything to your childs and just as

2008
01:52:54.439 --> 01:52:57.000
she is trying to tell you with every action, every look,

2009
01:52:57.720 --> 01:53:07.279
you suddenly feel the urge to tell her. An hour later,

2010
01:53:07.359 --> 01:53:10.960
you're racing across the English countryside, the rain driving against you,

2011
01:53:11.000 --> 01:53:13.880
with the cars were perilously along the narrow cliff road.

2012
01:53:14.359 --> 01:53:16.960
Finally you swinging to the driveway.

2013
01:53:17.600 --> 01:53:23.920
Hurry up the steps, then into the house, Lorry, Lorry.

2014
01:53:24.680 --> 01:53:27.880
Then you hear it, the movement in the kitchen. Hurry

2015
01:53:27.880 --> 01:53:33.279
down the hall cats sight Lorry asunder drowns your voice.

2016
01:53:33.439 --> 01:53:38.520
She doesn't hear move across the kitchen. Touch her arm, gentle.

2017
01:53:39.600 --> 01:53:41.520
Oh, Lorry, I'm sorry.

2018
01:53:41.720 --> 01:53:42.800
I didn't mean to starve from me.

2019
01:53:45.439 --> 01:53:48.640
No, no, I it was silly of me.

2020
01:53:49.840 --> 01:53:52.640
Well, I always think it might be him.

2021
01:53:52.840 --> 01:53:56.079
I know whatever you doing home.

2022
01:53:56.000 --> 01:53:57.720
Of the power of the dun Lollie.

2023
01:53:58.079 --> 01:53:58.560
Listen to me.

2024
01:54:00.039 --> 01:54:02.479
You can't go away, you mustn't.

2025
01:54:03.920 --> 01:54:05.880
Oh no, no, she's quick tempered. She said a lot

2026
01:54:05.880 --> 01:54:11.399
of things she doesn't really mean. Besides, I can't let

2027
01:54:11.399 --> 01:54:11.640
you go.

2028
01:54:13.039 --> 01:54:16.560
Well, I suppose I could stay until you've got someone else.

2029
01:54:16.640 --> 01:54:17.760
That isn't what I mean, Laury.

2030
01:54:18.319 --> 01:54:20.600
It's that I can.

2031
01:54:20.880 --> 01:54:22.479
I know I am handling this rather badly.

2032
01:54:23.319 --> 01:54:26.640
I don't quite know how to see you.

2033
01:54:26.720 --> 01:54:29.640
See, I have never really.

2034
01:54:29.720 --> 01:54:30.279
Seen in love.

2035
01:54:32.720 --> 01:54:37.520
In love, Please, mister, you mustn't talk that way.

2036
01:54:37.640 --> 01:54:39.960
I had to let you know how I felt, and

2037
01:54:40.039 --> 01:54:44.079
once I'm free. Well, I don't expect an answer right away, Laurie,

2038
01:54:44.800 --> 01:54:47.640
but I hope you'll want to think about it a little.

2039
01:54:48.560 --> 01:54:51.600
I think I think I better go now.

2040
01:54:51.680 --> 01:54:59.920
Mister Darwan, you watched Laurie as he hurried out. Somehow

2041
01:55:00.039 --> 01:55:02.159
you feel confident that she will want you to find

2042
01:55:02.199 --> 01:55:04.479
a way to be free, a way to rid yourself

2043
01:55:04.479 --> 01:55:04.960
of Helen.

2044
01:55:05.680 --> 01:55:06.680
But that isn't going to.

2045
01:55:06.600 --> 01:55:10.439
Be easy, and a divorce would leave you pettil the important,

2046
01:55:10.600 --> 01:55:15.039
the house, everything belongs to Helen. Later in the library,

2047
01:55:15.319 --> 01:55:17.800
you're so engrossed with your thoughts you don't hear the

2048
01:55:17.880 --> 01:55:20.479
car and the driveway and the sound of the front door.

2049
01:55:21.159 --> 01:55:27.600
And then what, oh oh, Helen, Helen.

2050
01:55:27.640 --> 01:55:30.079
I I know you didn't expect me.

2051
01:55:30.319 --> 01:55:33.239
To well, I thought this was going to be in

2052
01:55:33.359 --> 01:55:34.880
all ways, what's.

2053
01:55:34.680 --> 01:55:35.399
Going to be? Yes?

2054
01:55:35.840 --> 01:55:39.880
I so that the way, Charles. What are you doing

2055
01:55:39.960 --> 01:55:41.119
toe at this time of day?

2056
01:55:42.159 --> 01:55:42.439
Oh?

2057
01:55:42.479 --> 01:55:44.720
Well, I am Charles.

2058
01:55:45.279 --> 01:55:46.119
I could have stayed you.

2059
01:55:46.199 --> 01:55:47.760
Just early, sit back from town.

2060
01:55:48.640 --> 01:55:50.720
I should have told you Laurie always goes to the

2061
01:55:51.079 --> 01:55:51.920
time her day off.

2062
01:55:52.239 --> 01:55:55.239
Didn't you know what you mean? I know why you

2063
01:55:55.279 --> 01:55:58.640
came here, Darling. You thought I'd be gone all day.

2064
01:55:58.760 --> 01:56:00.760
You came back to see long, didn't you?

2065
01:56:00.760 --> 01:56:04.359
Sorry? That's ridiculous, Helen.

2066
01:56:04.439 --> 01:56:07.520
You's comet serious?

2067
01:56:08.000 --> 01:56:10.640
Do you take me for a complete school I've noticed

2068
01:56:10.640 --> 01:56:11.000
the way you.

2069
01:56:11.079 --> 01:56:15.439
Watch, the stupid look on your face moaning about the

2070
01:56:15.479 --> 01:56:16.119
school boy.

2071
01:56:16.520 --> 01:56:21.399
Really you imagine anything? Indeed, I tell you abusing job.

2072
01:56:23.840 --> 01:56:27.640
Do you think for one moment she'd be interested in you?

2073
01:56:27.640 --> 01:56:31.520
You're so dull, god so unromantic, Helen.

2074
01:56:31.760 --> 01:56:35.439
I feel sorry for you. If you get over it, Larie's.

2075
01:56:35.079 --> 01:56:39.319
Gone, you'll go back to your goals gardens HiPE collection,

2076
01:56:40.279 --> 01:56:41.199
and you'll still have me.

2077
01:56:41.840 --> 01:56:42.840
Wont you's dying?

2078
01:56:43.720 --> 01:56:51.199
How why are you going?

2079
01:56:53.199 --> 01:56:56.359
You wonder why you didn't kill it? Yeah, well, Helen, dead,

2080
01:56:56.359 --> 01:56:58.199
you'd be free to marry Laurie, wouldn't you.

2081
01:56:58.880 --> 01:57:02.720
Suddenly the answery of album becomes quite clear. He stopped

2082
01:57:02.760 --> 01:57:05.279
your car in the village and entered the tobacco shops.

2083
01:57:08.560 --> 01:57:09.399
Seems like it's.

2084
01:57:09.279 --> 01:57:11.760
Clearing up a bit. I not a storm we had

2085
01:57:11.840 --> 01:57:12.279
last night?

2086
01:57:12.520 --> 01:57:16.279
Yes, what's going on over at the Constable's office? I

2087
01:57:16.319 --> 01:57:18.600
know theiced quite a few people. Yeah, a little excitement

2088
01:57:18.600 --> 01:57:18.960
we had.

2089
01:57:19.239 --> 01:57:21.239
Constable and son of the lads brought a man down

2090
01:57:21.279 --> 01:57:24.560
from the cliffs the cliff tourist chefs staying over at

2091
01:57:24.560 --> 01:57:26.920
the end, decided he'd take a bit of a stroller

2092
01:57:26.920 --> 01:57:28.520
earlier this morning, Losses put.

2093
01:57:28.479 --> 01:57:30.600
Him like you think, brim he wasn't killed.

2094
01:57:31.640 --> 01:57:35.359
What wouldn't it, mister h The same as usual, Matthew

2095
01:57:35.399 --> 01:57:36.920
small him.

2096
01:57:37.239 --> 01:57:40.600
Yeah, lucky chap that one got some fifteen twenty three

2097
01:57:40.680 --> 01:57:41.479
down to a Legie.

2098
01:57:41.520 --> 01:57:42.680
Did he was lucky?

2099
01:57:42.680 --> 01:57:43.039
All right?

2100
01:57:44.279 --> 01:57:44.760
They honest?

2101
01:57:45.720 --> 01:57:50.039
You still take her walks along the cliffs every morning?

2102
01:57:50.239 --> 01:57:56.359
Yes, yes, if she does a bit of warner that

2103
01:57:56.520 --> 01:57:58.199
it's the dangerous in this kind of weather.

2104
01:57:58.760 --> 01:58:00.479
Never can tell what might have you know.

2105
01:58:01.800 --> 01:58:04.119
You're quite grind You will.

2106
01:58:05.560 --> 01:58:06.359
Never again tell.

2107
01:58:13.800 --> 01:58:14.159
That fit.

2108
01:58:14.359 --> 01:58:15.079
Isn't the child?

2109
01:58:15.319 --> 01:58:18.359
An accident on the cliff and you are free. Everyone

2110
01:58:18.439 --> 01:58:23.199
knows that Helen's daily walk there late that evening. When

2111
01:58:23.199 --> 01:58:26.479
you return to the house, Helen is already retired. You

2112
01:58:26.640 --> 01:58:36.800
hurry to find Laurie. As you step into the half

2113
01:58:36.880 --> 01:58:39.359
jock in library, you see your standing with the window

2114
01:58:39.479 --> 01:58:42.600
staring out into the garden. You approach within a few

2115
01:58:42.600 --> 01:58:43.800
feet of her.

2116
01:58:44.560 --> 01:58:47.159
Laurie, don't turn around.

2117
01:58:46.840 --> 01:58:49.239
Me, don't don't say anything.

2118
01:58:50.560 --> 01:58:51.119
Just listen to me.

2119
01:58:52.840 --> 01:58:55.720
I've found a way, a way to be free of heaven.

2120
01:58:56.399 --> 01:58:59.239
But first I've got to know how you feel. I've

2121
01:58:59.279 --> 01:59:00.840
got to know if you want me to go ahead

2122
01:59:00.880 --> 01:59:06.920
with it. Now, Listen, Lorry, this is very important. You

2123
01:59:06.960 --> 01:59:08.239
will not be implicated.

2124
01:59:09.239 --> 01:59:09.359
Now.

2125
01:59:09.399 --> 01:59:10.479
You don't have to answer me.

2126
01:59:11.520 --> 01:59:15.920
You don't have to say a thing, Lorrie, unless unless

2127
01:59:15.920 --> 01:59:16.680
you want to stop me.

2128
01:59:18.920 --> 01:59:22.600
Lorry, shall I?

2129
01:59:22.640 --> 01:59:22.880
Shall?

2130
01:59:22.920 --> 01:59:23.840
I go ahead with it?

2131
01:59:27.239 --> 01:59:41.079
All right, Darling, I'll do it.

2132
01:59:41.640 --> 01:59:43.159
Oh, good morning, Charles.

2133
01:59:43.479 --> 01:59:44.560
Morning, my dear Ma.

2134
01:59:44.800 --> 01:59:46.039
You're up right and early.

2135
01:59:46.359 --> 01:59:49.840
Rather surprised. We haven't had breakfast together in ages.

2136
01:59:50.199 --> 01:59:52.800
Yes, and I wanted to catch you before you left

2137
01:59:52.800 --> 01:59:56.359
the house. You are going for a walk this morning.

2138
01:59:56.479 --> 01:59:58.319
I thought I would rain is stopped.

2139
01:59:59.439 --> 02:00:04.680
But right he wrong, Helen. I'm well it might sound

2140
02:00:04.800 --> 02:00:07.760
un to you. Early in our marriage we used to

2141
02:00:07.800 --> 02:00:10.520
go to walks together. It seemed that we were able

2142
02:00:10.560 --> 02:00:14.520
to talk out so many things yet too, and I

2143
02:00:14.560 --> 02:00:16.720
was wondering, couldn't.

2144
02:00:16.359 --> 02:00:19.039
I walk along with you? Now this morning we walk

2145
02:00:19.079 --> 02:00:21.399
along the clips like we did before.

2146
02:00:22.800 --> 02:00:27.279
How get my crew and Charles. Yes, I'm glad that

2147
02:00:27.359 --> 02:00:28.000
you thought of this.

2148
02:00:28.399 --> 02:00:28.680
Good.

2149
02:00:30.000 --> 02:00:31.760
I think it will settle a lot of things, Helen,

2150
02:00:32.760 --> 02:00:37.359
for both of us.

2151
02:00:39.279 --> 02:00:50.000
Maw don't be half right.

2152
02:00:50.479 --> 02:00:51.359
Use USAFI.

2153
02:00:51.520 --> 02:00:54.560
For example, how many of our United States president we're

2154
02:00:54.640 --> 02:00:55.520
former lawyers?

2155
02:00:55.920 --> 02:00:56.399
Eleven?

2156
02:00:57.119 --> 02:01:01.119
No, that's only half right. Brush up on your American history.

2157
02:01:01.479 --> 02:01:03.800
Tell your I and E officer you want to study

2158
02:01:03.800 --> 02:01:07.920
with the United States Armed Forces Institute you Safie. It's easy,

2159
02:01:08.079 --> 02:01:10.640
it's simple. If you don't want to be half right,

2160
02:01:11.159 --> 02:01:12.199
use you, Safie.

2161
02:01:13.000 --> 02:01:15.039
And now back to the whistler.

2162
02:01:25.720 --> 02:01:27.359
It's all over now, isn't the child?

2163
02:01:27.840 --> 02:01:30.119
The walk along the cliffs of Helen is the last

2164
02:01:30.119 --> 02:01:32.640
one you'll ever have to take you And as you

2165
02:01:32.680 --> 02:01:35.439
turn away from the presidice, the fog moves in around you,

2166
02:01:36.079 --> 02:01:37.359
and you hurry back along the.

2167
02:01:37.319 --> 02:01:40.479
Path toward the house. You're anxious to see Laurie again.

2168
02:01:40.640 --> 02:01:43.960
Talk to her, gain the reassurance that sweeps over you

2169
02:01:44.079 --> 02:01:47.720
every time she looks at you. There's magic in those moments,

2170
02:01:47.760 --> 02:01:51.560
isn't the child? An enchantment and beauty that cannot be denied.

2171
02:01:52.359 --> 02:01:54.640
And after the weeks of waiting, you settle it. Finn

2172
02:01:55.560 --> 02:01:58.000
and Laury need never leave the house. It will now

2173
02:01:58.119 --> 02:01:59.000
be yours.

2174
02:02:03.319 --> 02:02:07.159
Lorry, lorry, Oh there you are.

2175
02:02:07.520 --> 02:02:12.199
Oh it's something wrong, No, no, no, Lorry, it's over

2176
02:02:13.520 --> 02:02:17.279
exactly as I said over. It will seem like an accident, Lorry,

2177
02:02:17.359 --> 02:02:19.319
I'm sure of it. It happened to someone from the

2178
02:02:19.359 --> 02:02:21.279
hotel in the village. They'll think it was the same

2179
02:02:21.319 --> 02:02:26.359
with Helen, your wife. Oh don't you understand Laurie m's dead.

2180
02:02:27.319 --> 02:02:27.479
Now.

2181
02:02:28.319 --> 02:02:30.479
If they come around, just tell them we missed her

2182
02:02:30.479 --> 02:02:32.680
this morning. Thought she'd gone for a walk.

2183
02:02:33.319 --> 02:02:40.119
You you killed her, Laia, No, no, don't come near me.

2184
02:02:40.319 --> 02:02:45.279
Don't touch me, Lorry.

2185
02:02:45.720 --> 02:02:49.800
She turned hurried away. You take a few steps after Lynn. Stop.

2186
02:02:50.439 --> 02:02:51.880
It's the shock, isn't a child.

2187
02:02:52.279 --> 02:02:55.199
You can feel it yourself now, the realization of what

2188
02:02:55.279 --> 02:02:57.760
you've done. What you will be all right, and.

2189
02:02:57.760 --> 02:02:58.439
So will Laury.

2190
02:02:59.359 --> 02:03:01.239
You wonder if you should go on to the office

2191
02:03:01.279 --> 02:03:02.319
and give her time to faith.

2192
02:03:03.199 --> 02:03:05.319
And then suddenly you hear the sound of Helen's car

2193
02:03:05.399 --> 02:03:08.479
from the drive and rush to the window, and Laurie

2194
02:03:09.479 --> 02:03:15.359
driving towards the village, good ward waiting after her, your

2195
02:03:15.359 --> 02:03:18.239
own car. A dozen thoughts found in your mind as

2196
02:03:18.279 --> 02:03:20.800
you wonder what you've done wrong. Perhaps it was the

2197
02:03:20.800 --> 02:03:23.800
way you told her, the suddenest up, the cold shot.

2198
02:03:24.680 --> 02:03:28.720
And then you see Helen's car parked the curve. You stop,

2199
02:03:29.000 --> 02:03:30.720
step out.

2200
02:03:30.279 --> 02:03:33.520
And realize too late that you have followed Laurie right

2201
02:03:33.560 --> 02:03:37.399
to the Constable's office where he is talking to her, and.

2202
02:03:37.279 --> 02:03:39.039
Then as you turn to hurry away, it's.

2203
02:03:38.880 --> 02:03:42.239
A bit bus I've been trying to get back in

2204
02:03:42.359 --> 02:03:44.119
that car if I were you.

2205
02:03:44.199 --> 02:03:44.520
So what.

2206
02:03:47.000 --> 02:03:49.720
Once the mother comes book, I have a few questions

2207
02:03:49.720 --> 02:03:50.199
to ask you.

2208
02:03:51.479 --> 02:03:58.720
Laurie here tells me you've killed your wife? She told you, yes, yes,

2209
02:03:58.800 --> 02:04:00.279
Now she.

2210
02:04:00.319 --> 02:04:03.279
Was in on it herself. She knew I was trying

2211
02:04:03.279 --> 02:04:05.840
to do it. I told her, and she didn't stop me.

2212
02:04:06.239 --> 02:04:07.880
No, no, no, that's not.

2213
02:04:08.039 --> 02:04:12.600
Your last night in the library. You was timing by

2214
02:04:12.600 --> 02:04:14.039
the window looking out.

2215
02:04:13.960 --> 02:04:14.680
Into the cot.

2216
02:04:16.039 --> 02:04:16.560
Last night.

2217
02:04:17.239 --> 02:04:17.319
What.

2218
02:04:17.800 --> 02:04:19.000
I didn't even see.

2219
02:04:18.800 --> 02:04:21.279
You, but you heard me, Laurie.

2220
02:04:21.800 --> 02:04:25.359
She must just a moment villain. Laurie says she didn't

2221
02:04:25.399 --> 02:04:25.840
see you.

2222
02:04:26.199 --> 02:04:27.359
She couldn't have heard you.

2223
02:04:28.800 --> 02:04:32.520
What don't you understand? That's why I couldn't answer the

2224
02:04:32.520 --> 02:04:35.239
doorbell or the telephone. That's why I made up that

2225
02:04:35.319 --> 02:04:37.319
story of the man who was supposed to be threatening me.

2226
02:04:37.760 --> 02:04:40.720
Beldon, have you ever noticed the way Laurie.

2227
02:04:40.359 --> 02:04:41.079
Looks at you?

2228
02:04:42.119 --> 02:04:47.279
This, yes, a lovely look.

2229
02:04:48.079 --> 02:04:50.960
She has a good reason for that look, you see,

2230
02:04:51.079 --> 02:04:54.600
Lordie can't hear when she looked at you like that

2231
02:04:55.560 --> 02:04:57.279
she's reading your lips.

2232
02:05:01.800 --> 02:05:04.680
Now a question, do you know? The significance of the

2233
02:05:04.680 --> 02:05:05.199
oak leaf?

2234
02:05:05.199 --> 02:05:08.479
Warned by the Navy's commanders and lieutenant commanders in the

2235
02:05:08.479 --> 02:05:11.159
early days of the Navy. Since all ships were constructed

2236
02:05:11.159 --> 02:05:13.600
of wood, a wood had to be selected which would

2237
02:05:13.600 --> 02:05:16.520
be durable and long lasting, capable of sailing through any

2238
02:05:16.560 --> 02:05:17.159
kind of weather.

2239
02:05:17.680 --> 02:05:19.800
Thus, the wood of the sturdy oak tree was selected.

2240
02:05:20.359 --> 02:05:23.039
Later, when insignia were selected for the officers of the Navy,

2241
02:05:23.279 --> 02:05:26.079
the oak leaf was chosen for commanders and lieutenant commanders

2242
02:05:26.359 --> 02:05:29.000
as the symbol of their capability and strength of leadership.

2243
02:05:29.800 --> 02:05:32.039
This is but one of many interesting facts which can

2244
02:05:32.079 --> 02:05:36.760
be found in the history of your United States Navy.

2245
02:05:38.640 --> 02:05:41.520
Agent and Tonight's transcribed story were Bill Forman as the Whistler,

2246
02:05:41.600 --> 02:05:44.680
John Dayner, Loreen Pubble, Mary lou Herrington, Eric Snowten, and

2247
02:05:44.760 --> 02:05:45.279
Dick Ryan.

2248
02:05:45.800 --> 02:05:47.239
The Westler, directed by Gardon T.

2249
02:05:47.359 --> 02:05:49.720
Hughes with music by Wilbur Hatch As produced by Joe

2250
02:05:49.840 --> 02:05:53.520
Malone and transmitted overseas by the Enforces Radio Service to

2251
02:05:53.640 --> 02:05:54.840
Night's Westler, was based.

2252
02:05:54.600 --> 02:05:56.159
On the story by Mary Ruth Fott.

2253
02:05:56.520 --> 02:05:59.159
The Westler was entirely fictional, and all characters portrayed on

2254
02:05:59.199 --> 02:06:02.920
the whistler are any similarities of names or resemblances to

2255
02:06:02.960 --> 02:06:04.640
persons living or dead, as purely going to.

2256
02:06:04.600 --> 02:06:11.479
That well, my dear, I suppose the night has run

2257
02:06:11.520 --> 02:06:15.159
its course. Time for you to head home, and for

2258
02:06:15.279 --> 02:06:20.079

2259
02:06:20.159 --> 02:06:26.399
come from. But please do come back sooth. I'll be

2260
02:06:26.520 --> 02:06:34.680
right here, same time, same place, waiting to share with you.

2261
02:06:35.960 --> 02:06:40.319
And if I could ask one more favor. As you

2262
02:06:40.399 --> 02:06:45.119
make your way home, as you glide through the dark woods,

2263
02:06:45.720 --> 02:06:50.000
past the city streets, as you enter the threshold of

2264
02:06:50.079 --> 02:06:54.359
your humble abode, and lay your head down on your pillow,

2265
02:06:55.079 --> 02:06:59.239
take one moment and be thankful for what you have,

2266
02:07:00.359 --> 02:07:01.920
and I'll be seeing you.

2267
02:07:05.760 --> 02:07:10.600
Emily come Lormony in my family, the family whom like

2268
02:07:11.000 --> 02:07:19.680
them to follow again. That's the robing

2269
02:07:25.640 --> 02:07:27.560
Mumbling break.
