the Nixon re election campaign by Howard Hughes has been

39
00:02:42.759 --> 00:02:45.840
blocked by the Internal Revenue Service. An attorney for the

40

Senate Committee suggests that the IRS has succumbed to pressure

41
00:02:49.680 --> 00:02:53.280
from the White House. Vice President Port says the Democrats

42
00:02:53.319 --> 00:02:56.960
are trying to exploit the Watergate scandal against the GOP.

Speaking to California Republican officials and Jose this afternoon, Ford said,

44
00:03:02.439 --> 00:03:03.039
I will.

45
00:03:02.879 --> 00:03:07.599
Point out what would happen if we don't stand together,

46
00:03:07.759 --> 00:03:11.360
If we don't bring people together, you could have a

47
00:03:11.520 --> 00:03:19.639
legislative dictatorship in the Congress, which would obviate uh the

48

That story coming up.

54
00:03:38.560 --> 00:03:41.080
We live in an age in which most handicaps can

55
00:03:41.159 --> 00:03:45.199
be dramatically reduced. The almost blind can be helped to see,

56
00:03:45.400 --> 00:03:48.759
and the almost deaf can be helped to hear. Retarded

57
00:03:48.840 --> 00:03:52.000
children can be taught to work and play with other children,

58
00:03:52.240 --> 00:03:55.319
and in many cases to read and learn, an occupation

59
00:03:55.439 --> 00:03:58.840
that will give them independence in a better life. Nearly

60
00:03:58.879 --> 00:04:02.360
seven million America children have learning handicaps of one kind

61
00:04:02.439 --> 00:04:06.280
or another, and many parents don't know where or even

62
00:04:06.360 --> 00:04:10.919
how to look for schools with special education programs. Special

63
00:04:11.039 --> 00:04:15.360
education can help a child overcome his particular learning problems,

64
00:04:15.680 --> 00:04:19.680
whether physical, mental, or emotional. If you have a child

65
00:04:19.680 --> 00:04:22.519

at Silver Bay, Minnesota, throwing thirty two hundred employees out

74
00:04:48.120 --> 00:04:51.720
of work, but the shutdown is a victory for environmentalists.

75

most important an environmental case of the century. The trial

79
00:05:02.240 --> 00:05:05.240
is dragged gone for almost nine months, with testimony focusing

80
00:05:05.240 --> 00:05:09.000
on the health hazards created by Reserves methods of waste disposal.

81
00:05:09.360 --> 00:05:12.120
The company has dumped sixty seven thousand tons of waste

82
00:05:12.160 --> 00:05:15.839
in the Lake Superior every day, government experts testified that

83
00:05:16.000 --> 00:05:18.959
waste contained amysite as best as fibers, which could later

84
00:05:19.000 --> 00:05:21.040
be found in the drinking order of the loop and

85
00:05:21.079 --> 00:05:22.399
several adjoining communities.

Mining firm, which is owned by arm Corner Public Steel Companies,

88
00:05:27.000 --> 00:05:30.759
denied its waste disposal methods created any threat to public health,

89
00:05:31.040 --> 00:05:34.480
but federal Judge Miles Lord called the company's position preposterous

90
00:05:34.519 --> 00:05:37.839
and ordered the plant closed. Ron Miller ABC News Chicago.

the oil that will initially flow through the Trans Alaska

95
00:05:48.480 --> 00:05:52.399
Pipeline will be exported. Jack Robertson says that in the

96
00:05:52.480 --> 00:05:56.199
early years of the Alaska pipeline's operation, West Coast oil

97
00:05:56.240 --> 00:05:58.879
refineries won't have the capacity to process all of the

98
00:05:58.920 --> 00:06:02.839
oil that they'll be receiving. Louisiana voters apparently have approved

99
00:06:02.839 --> 00:06:06.759
a new state constitution. This would beat Louisiana's eleventh Constitution

100
00:06:07.240 --> 00:06:10.199
more than any other state. New Gallup Pole shows that

101
00:06:10.240 --> 00:06:13.680
a majority of Americans are still opposed to amnesty for Vietnam.

Welcome to the fear you can hear, Welcome to the

world of terrifying imagination.

133
00:08:24.560 --> 00:08:25.720
This is a tale.

134
00:08:25.439 --> 00:08:30.040
About justice, about the lady who stands over the criminal

135
00:08:30.120 --> 00:08:34.960
courthouses of America with a blindfold over her eyes. Of course,

136
00:08:34.960 --> 00:08:41.240
the blindfold represents impartiality, not faulty vision. But yet there

137
00:08:41.279 --> 00:08:43.679
are occasions when justice seems.

138
00:08:43.360 --> 00:08:45.240
To be looking the other way.

139
00:08:46.080 --> 00:08:50.879
And that's something which bothers Attorney Ned Murray very much Indeed.

140
00:08:51.000 --> 00:08:55.399
He's getting away with murder Tony, and maybe he'll get

141
00:08:55.440 --> 00:08:58.200
away with another one. Maybe there's an answer.

142
00:08:58.960 --> 00:09:02.039

00:10:20.120 --> 00:10:20.320
Yes?

167
00:10:20.399 --> 00:10:22.679
And the Special Care breakfast is less than two hundred

168
00:10:22.720 --> 00:10:24.039
and forty calories less.

169
00:10:23.840 --> 00:10:26.799
Than two hundred forty carries, right.

170
00:10:27.000 --> 00:10:29.519
Or one ounce ball of high protein special k four

171
00:10:29.559 --> 00:10:31.799
ounces of skin milk to made a juice and coffee.

172
00:10:31.840 --> 00:10:33.799
It's really tasty and it's going to help me get

173
00:10:33.879 --> 00:10:34.919
rid of this ball and chain.

174
00:10:35.200 --> 00:10:37.600
I'd say it's long overdue. Get it.

175
00:10:39.159 --> 00:10:41.559
You are happy. Ending could begin with the Special Care

176
00:10:41.600 --> 00:10:48.799
breakfast from Killogs, who knows how to help you solve

177
00:10:48.840 --> 00:10:53.480
your shopping problems, no matter business.

178
00:10:53.200 --> 00:10:58.879
UREA Wednesday, ten o'clock. I'm back at the office working

179
00:10:58.919 --> 00:11:01.240
on the case. One my stat scretary brings me the mail,

180
00:11:02.000 --> 00:11:08.799
Thanks kid, the usual stuff. Then I see it. It's

181
00:11:08.799 --> 00:11:12.799
addressed to me resident inside a fake rabbit's foot, A

182
00:11:12.960 --> 00:11:16.600
pitch a two dollars donation or send back the rabbit's foot.

183
00:11:17.600 --> 00:11:25.480
My problem? What to do about it? I'll help you

184
00:11:25.559 --> 00:11:29.039
with good advice from the Better Business Bureau. Oh yeah,

185
00:11:29.360 --> 00:11:33.399
spill it. If you receive unordered merchandise in the mail,

186
00:11:33.919 --> 00:11:37.679
you are under no obligation to return it or pay

187
00:11:37.720 --> 00:11:40.799
for it. Thanks Bell, you're okay.

188
00:11:41.720 --> 00:11:45.399
Just another consumer tip from your Better Business Bureau.

189
00:11:59.440 --> 00:12:03.440
What a place to begin a story about justice and

190
00:12:03.600 --> 00:12:08.600
in a court from this one is packed today because

191
00:12:08.600 --> 00:12:10.960
it's the day the jury is going to return its

192
00:12:11.039 --> 00:12:14.519
verdict in the case of the People versus Lewis Rydell.

193
00:12:15.879 --> 00:12:19.919
That's Rydell over there, the thin man with the burning eyes.

194
00:12:21.000 --> 00:12:23.559
See the way he searches the face of every juror

195
00:12:23.559 --> 00:12:25.799
who takes his or her place in the jury box.

196
00:12:26.720 --> 00:12:31.080
It's only natural, of course, because Lewis Rydell had been

197
00:12:31.159 --> 00:12:36.639
charged with murder. Quiet Now Presiding Judge Lincoln Arthur is

198
00:12:36.679 --> 00:12:39.120
about to speak.

199
00:12:41.399 --> 00:12:47.399
The foreman of the jury will please rise, as jury

200
00:12:47.480 --> 00:12:52.759
reached a verdict in this case, your honor, please read

201
00:12:52.840 --> 00:12:54.080
your verdict to the court.

202
00:12:54.840 --> 00:13:02.639
We find a defendant, Lewis Rydell, not guilty.

203
00:13:03.840 --> 00:13:06.440
Murray, congratulations, Low.

204
00:13:06.519 --> 00:13:08.120
I'm very happy. You're happy.

205
00:13:08.120 --> 00:13:09.159
How do you think I for you?

206
00:13:09.799 --> 00:13:12.240
Hey, come on, let's get out of this place. Let's celebrate.

207
00:13:12.679 --> 00:13:14.840
Let's pick up my wife and have a ball. And

208
00:13:14.919 --> 00:13:16.960
I don't think I can. I promise my boss that

209
00:13:17.000 --> 00:13:19.120
i'd do that. You know, but you boys, you want

210
00:13:19.159 --> 00:13:20.840
to see that daughter is okay?

211
00:13:20.960 --> 00:13:21.080
Well?

212
00:13:21.080 --> 00:13:22.799
Am I going to porce them. I can't. Lord, I'm

213
00:13:22.799 --> 00:13:25.159
saying them on, come on, CONCILARI. Well, he's got a

214
00:13:25.159 --> 00:13:35.480
camp waiting outside. Boy, did I read those faces wrong?

215
00:13:36.159 --> 00:13:38.879
I thought that's a hanging jury. If ever I saw one.

216
00:13:39.120 --> 00:13:41.159
The only one I was worried about was that little

217
00:13:41.159 --> 00:13:42.399
old lady with the blue hair.

218
00:13:43.039 --> 00:13:45.279
You just can't tell about a jury from their faces.

219
00:13:45.559 --> 00:13:48.399
My last case, well, I thought they will look friendly,

220
00:13:48.519 --> 00:13:52.279
but I lost. You won this one, mister Murray. I

221
00:13:52.360 --> 00:13:54.840
bet that boss of yours is real. Please, I mean

222
00:13:55.240 --> 00:13:58.120
all this publicity that you got, well, you're a regular,

223
00:13:58.200 --> 00:13:59.159
Clarence Darrow.

224
00:13:59.759 --> 00:14:00.879
Look, we don't.

225
00:14:00.799 --> 00:14:03.159
Really have to talk about the fee settlement. Now. Why

226
00:14:03.200 --> 00:14:05.440
don't you and Melanie just go out and drink up

227
00:14:05.480 --> 00:14:06.960
a couple of bottles of champagne.

228
00:14:07.000 --> 00:14:10.840
Oh Lou doesn't drink, mister Murray. Lou doesn't have any vices,

229
00:14:11.120 --> 00:14:11.399
do you.

230
00:14:11.480 --> 00:14:11.639
Look?

231
00:14:11.759 --> 00:14:15.240
I want to get the money settled, counselor. Melanie here

232
00:14:15.279 --> 00:14:18.080
doesn't like to hear about money. She just likes to suspend it.

233
00:14:18.679 --> 00:14:19.879
We'll drop her off at home.

234
00:14:20.000 --> 00:14:22.159
Hey, you promised to take me someplace.

235
00:14:22.200 --> 00:14:24.720
Wait for me at home. Pumpkin Daddy will be there

236
00:14:24.759 --> 00:14:26.960
just as soon as he settles things with his lawyer.

237
00:14:27.320 --> 00:14:29.559
Okay, what choice do I have.

238
00:14:29.759 --> 00:14:31.399
I'll be home in an hour or two and we'll

239
00:14:31.399 --> 00:14:33.720
go out to dinner. Just stay in the apartment and

240
00:14:33.759 --> 00:14:36.399
don't open the door to anyone. And if you have

241
00:14:36.480 --> 00:14:47.559
to open the door, wear some clothes maybe. Huh. Yeah.

242
00:14:47.600 --> 00:14:49.840
There's a nice little office you got here, mister Murray.

243
00:14:50.360 --> 00:14:53.919
Only expect me as kind of small, isn't it. Let's

244
00:14:53.919 --> 00:14:56.720
figure enough Fluke, I mean compared to that big office

245
00:14:56.720 --> 00:15:01.039
down the hall, mister Ostra, mister Ostro, senior partner, the

246
00:15:01.080 --> 00:15:05.639
sperm blow or maybe when you marry his daughter. You

247
00:15:05.679 --> 00:15:08.679
are going to marry that chick, aren't you. Let's get

248
00:15:08.679 --> 00:15:10.879
down to business, okay, I mean the way she was

249
00:15:10.919 --> 00:15:13.039
hanging around that courtroom every day at the trial, I

250
00:15:13.080 --> 00:15:16.200
figured she was pretty stuck on you. Lo, this meeting

251
00:15:16.440 --> 00:15:20.200
was your idea. You said you could manage to pay

252
00:15:20.240 --> 00:15:22.799
about one hundred and fifty months, and that's perfectly fine

253
00:15:22.840 --> 00:15:26.080
with me. Sure, mister Murray, anything you say, we should

254
00:15:26.080 --> 00:15:28.000
have settled this in the taxi. I guess they just

255
00:15:28.039 --> 00:15:30.279
didn't want to face Melanie for a couple of hours.

256
00:15:31.080 --> 00:15:36.960
Needed an excuse, understand, I suppose, so She's beautiful, isn't she,

257
00:15:37.840 --> 00:15:41.200
missus Rydell. No, yes, she can't help herself. You know

258
00:15:41.919 --> 00:15:44.679
the way men bother all the time. They look at

259
00:15:44.720 --> 00:15:48.360
her and right away they get ideas. It's not her fault. No,

260
00:15:49.240 --> 00:15:52.159
she's not smart about it though. She doesn't know the

261
00:15:52.200 --> 00:15:55.039
way men think, Like the way she answers the door.

262
00:15:55.120 --> 00:15:58.840
Sometimes in that sloppy house coat. She gives people ideas,

263
00:15:59.200 --> 00:15:59.679
like the kid.

264
00:15:59.759 --> 00:15:59.799
You.

265
00:16:01.200 --> 00:16:03.440
I feel sorry for that kid, you know, I know

266
00:16:04.399 --> 00:16:06.279
it's just too bad that he got himself mugged the

267
00:16:06.360 --> 00:16:09.000
day after you threw him out of the house. You

268
00:16:09.000 --> 00:16:12.720
wouldn't have gone through all this. You wouldn't be owing

269
00:16:12.759 --> 00:16:14.919
me one hundred and fifty bucks a month. Yeah, I

270
00:16:14.960 --> 00:16:18.240
feel sorry for him. Kid delivers the groceries every day.

271
00:16:18.399 --> 00:16:22.759
It's this same eye full every day. This tongue must

272
00:16:22.799 --> 00:16:25.759
have been hanging out. Well, I really have to get

273
00:16:25.799 --> 00:16:28.360
on home. I've got a party at my boss's house tonight.

274
00:16:28.440 --> 00:16:31.679
But just the same, I'll do it again. That's the

275
00:16:31.679 --> 00:16:34.799
way I am. Like guy touches my wife, I get

276
00:16:34.799 --> 00:16:38.759
a red fire in my brain and I can't stop myself. Now,

277
00:16:39.360 --> 00:16:42.600
I owe you a lot, mister Murray, more than money. Well,

278
00:16:42.720 --> 00:16:46.080
forget it. Just learn to keep your temper. I really

279
00:16:46.159 --> 00:16:52.519
killed that boy. You know what did you say? I

280
00:16:52.600 --> 00:16:55.519
killed him, mister Murray. I waited for him in the

281
00:16:55.559 --> 00:16:58.639
hallway the next day and I grabbed him. It was

282
00:16:58.679 --> 00:17:01.480
a scrawny kid ring in the neck of a chicken.

283
00:17:02.320 --> 00:17:04.640
Do the same thing again, mister Murray, to the next

284
00:17:04.680 --> 00:17:10.079
guy who bothers my wife. I got to learn well

285
00:17:11.240 --> 00:17:13.759
better go now. Melanie's waiting for me.

286
00:17:14.720 --> 00:17:19.000
You lied to me. Every stinking word you told.

287
00:17:18.799 --> 00:17:21.279
Me was alive. It's sure, mister Murray. I couldn't tell

288
00:17:21.319 --> 00:17:24.200
you the truth, could I. I mean, you wouldn't have

289
00:17:24.200 --> 00:17:27.160
taken the case, would you. Yes, I would have taken

290
00:17:27.160 --> 00:17:29.759
the case and told you to plead guilty with cor No,

291
00:17:29.920 --> 00:17:32.160
that wouldn't have been any good. I wanted you to

292
00:17:32.160 --> 00:17:35.119
get me off, and that's what you did. Look, I

293
00:17:35.240 --> 00:17:36.799
want to go now, mister Murray. I just want to

294
00:17:36.839 --> 00:17:40.079
say thanks again. Oh you think it's that simple. You

295
00:17:40.119 --> 00:17:42.359
think you can just walk out of here. Melanie's waiting

296
00:17:42.440 --> 00:17:44.640
for me. She likes to eat dinner early. The girl's

297
00:17:44.680 --> 00:17:46.640
always hungry. So long, mister.

298
00:17:46.480 --> 00:18:10.799
Murray, Oh my God.

299
00:18:00.720 --> 00:18:04.920
Ned for the love of Mike, where you've been I'm sorry,

300
00:18:05.000 --> 00:18:06.359
I'm so late, mister Rasstoum.

301
00:18:06.519 --> 00:18:08.359
What do you leave this parties for? Anyway?

302
00:18:08.440 --> 00:18:11.000
Well, come in, come in, come in. Can's going out

303
00:18:11.039 --> 00:18:12.599
of her brain waiting for you to get here.

304
00:18:12.920 --> 00:18:15.440
It just looks like quite a crown. They're all in

305
00:18:15.480 --> 00:18:17.400
your pocket tonight now, Ned.

306
00:18:17.759 --> 00:18:19.640
Wright, everybody, hold it, hold it.

307
00:18:21.240 --> 00:18:24.839
Here's the man we've all been waiting for, Ned Murray, folks,

308
00:18:25.200 --> 00:18:30.839
greatest trial lawyer since Clown's No, since Harry Astra.

309
00:18:32.680 --> 00:18:35.400
Why come on, town's over here.

310
00:18:35.519 --> 00:18:38.759
Ye Hied, Donnie, where in the world have you've been?

311
00:18:38.920 --> 00:18:40.680
The party started two hours ago.

312
00:18:40.920 --> 00:18:43.240
I just lost track of the time, and so I

313
00:18:43.319 --> 00:18:45.720
must be loved if you ask meeting. All right, I'll

314
00:18:45.720 --> 00:18:46.559
see your kids later.

315
00:18:47.039 --> 00:18:50.640
Ned, come into the kitchen for a minute. No, full

316
00:18:50.640 --> 00:18:52.480
of servants, come into the bedroom.

317
00:18:52.920 --> 00:18:59.680
Yeah, that's an offer I can't refuse. What did you

318
00:18:59.720 --> 00:19:00.319
haven't mind?

319
00:19:00.839 --> 00:19:02.799
Give you one guess?

320
00:19:03.960 --> 00:19:08.720
Oh, darling, I'm so proud of you.

321
00:19:08.720 --> 00:19:09.960
You were so wonderful.

322
00:19:10.680 --> 00:19:12.200
This was pretty wonderful.

323
00:19:13.559 --> 00:19:15.680
Father says that you were everything he used to be

324
00:19:15.720 --> 00:19:18.160
in the courtroom, and there's no higher praise he can

325
00:19:18.240 --> 00:19:18.759
give than that.

326
00:19:19.960 --> 00:19:22.440
Look, let's forget about the trial. It's over.

327
00:19:22.559 --> 00:19:25.680
Oh, I don't want to forget about it, Ned, I'm

328
00:19:25.720 --> 00:19:28.039
just so thrilled with the way you handle the case

329
00:19:28.480 --> 00:19:30.240
that man Ry Dell seems so guilty.

330
00:19:30.519 --> 00:19:32.240
There's too much fuss about all this careen.

331
00:19:32.440 --> 00:19:34.559
Father said that if you could win this case, you

332
00:19:34.559 --> 00:19:35.880
could do anything that.

333
00:19:35.839 --> 00:19:38.000
It would mean a lot of business to the firm.

334
00:19:38.640 --> 00:19:39.160
Do you know what.

335
00:19:39.240 --> 00:19:42.319
I think he's not going to wait on that promise

336
00:19:42.599 --> 00:19:45.440
about the junior partnership. I think he's going to do

337
00:19:45.480 --> 00:19:46.960
something about it right now.

338
00:19:48.000 --> 00:19:48.759
Are you serious?

339
00:19:48.960 --> 00:19:53.119
Don't tell him what I said, But I'm sure of it. Ned,

340
00:19:54.319 --> 00:19:58.519
You'll have to stop making excuses pretty soon, Lover, you'll

341
00:19:58.519 --> 00:20:02.839
have to name the day, for heaven's sake.

342
00:20:03.279 --> 00:20:05.519
Probably your father wanted me to join the party.

343
00:20:07.240 --> 00:20:10.559
Hi, and ned Ostrow told me you were here, Tony.

344
00:20:10.759 --> 00:20:13.680
For the love of life, I haven't seen you in age.

345
00:20:13.799 --> 00:20:14.960
Yeah that's right.

346
00:20:15.400 --> 00:20:18.799
Oh hey, I am sorry. I didn't know you had

347
00:20:18.839 --> 00:20:19.680
somebody with you.

348
00:20:19.799 --> 00:20:21.119
It's all right, mister igo.

349
00:20:21.240 --> 00:20:22.960
I was just going to fix my makeup.

350
00:20:23.519 --> 00:20:28.559
See you later, Darling, Yes, yes, sure, Tony. I don't

351
00:20:28.559 --> 00:20:30.440
think I ever saw you at Ostrous before.

352
00:20:30.559 --> 00:20:32.640
Yeah, you know me that I don't like to mix

353
00:20:32.720 --> 00:20:33.960
with all these big.

354
00:20:33.720 --> 00:20:38.319
Shots Hey, you still talk to ordinary people, big celebrity

355
00:20:38.440 --> 00:20:41.079
like you. I'll talk to you anytimes. Huh.

356
00:20:41.960 --> 00:20:43.880
I was in court today, I've been in the last

357
00:20:43.920 --> 00:20:45.680
four days, but you didn't even notice.

358
00:20:45.759 --> 00:20:48.920
Huh. That was nice of you, busy man like you. Yeah,

359
00:20:49.039 --> 00:20:54.440
I got a personal interest, you know that, sure, Tony.

360
00:20:54.559 --> 00:20:56.400
I was really glad you wouldn't kidding.

361
00:20:56.960 --> 00:20:59.200
Reminded me all over again, which you did for me

362
00:20:59.400 --> 00:21:02.039
two years to get me off that murder rap.

363
00:21:02.599 --> 00:21:05.359
It was like seeing the whole thing again. There wasn't

364
00:21:05.359 --> 00:21:08.359
the same toney for one thing. You didn't kill it.

365
00:21:10.079 --> 00:21:12.880
I mean, come on, let's go out and get a drink.

366
00:21:13.599 --> 00:21:14.160
Not for me.

367
00:21:14.240 --> 00:21:16.400
Since I seen you last, I got me an ulcer.

368
00:21:16.640 --> 00:21:19.319
That's the price of success, you know, in my business,

369
00:21:19.400 --> 00:21:19.960
just like yours.

370
00:21:20.039 --> 00:21:23.640
That's too bad. You know something that you don't look

371
00:21:23.759 --> 00:21:27.640
so healthy yourself. I'm okay, you look.

372
00:21:27.559 --> 00:21:28.640
Great in that court room.

373
00:21:28.720 --> 00:21:31.799
Only now you don't look like a guy who won

374
00:21:31.880 --> 00:21:34.519
a case. You look like a loser. I'm just tired

375
00:21:34.799 --> 00:21:39.079
to let down, you know. Yeah, yeah, I should look

376
00:21:39.240 --> 00:21:40.799
ned you.

377
00:21:40.920 --> 00:21:44.039
Remember what I told you once, Sir, You got any

378
00:21:44.119 --> 00:21:47.559
troubles you can't handle, I want to hear about them.

379
00:21:48.160 --> 00:21:50.880
You got a favor coming from me, and if Botts

380
00:21:50.920 --> 00:21:52.759
be not to pay off, that was a.

381
00:21:52.720 --> 00:21:55.279
Long time ago. You don't owe me anything.

382
00:21:55.480 --> 00:21:59.319
I keep good books. Don't tell me who I oh hate.

383
00:21:59.319 --> 00:22:02.720
Go on, I find that girl he is, Maybe she

384
00:22:02.759 --> 00:22:03.480
can cheer you up.

385
00:22:04.200 --> 00:22:07.160
Tell you the truth, Tony. I need a couple of

386
00:22:07.200 --> 00:22:09.480
minutes all by myself. You know how it is.

387
00:22:09.720 --> 00:22:13.240
Yeah, sure, I know how it is. Sometimes too much

388
00:22:13.400 --> 00:22:14.079
is too much?

389
00:22:14.440 --> 00:22:15.960
Yeah yeah, that's right.

390
00:22:17.720 --> 00:22:20.519
See around later, kid, Okay.

391
00:22:20.880 --> 00:22:29.960
Yeah, yeah later, Sometimes too much is too much. I

392
00:22:30.160 --> 00:22:35.160
really kill that boy, you know, he killed him. He

393
00:22:35.279 --> 00:22:38.119
killed him, and I let him get away with it.

394
00:22:38.440 --> 00:22:43.160
I killed him. Mister Murray. Oh god, I'll.

395
00:22:42.960 --> 00:22:46.839
Do the same thing again to the next guy who

396
00:22:46.880 --> 00:22:50.920
bothers my way. I'll do the same thing, mister Murray,

397
00:22:51.599 --> 00:22:53.920
the same thing.

398
00:23:02.960 --> 00:23:03.599
I'm coming.

399
00:23:06.079 --> 00:23:08.519
Oh, mister Murray, I know missus Rydell.

400
00:23:08.599 --> 00:23:09.759
Oh well, Lou isn't home.

401
00:23:09.839 --> 00:23:13.079
You know he went to see mister Fleming about going

402
00:23:13.160 --> 00:23:14.160
back to the company.

403
00:23:14.279 --> 00:23:16.559
I knew he wasn't home. May I come in anywhere?

404
00:23:16.920 --> 00:23:21.319
Oh yeah sure. But do you think Lou will have

405
00:23:21.359 --> 00:23:23.640
any trouble? I mean getting his old job back.

406
00:23:24.160 --> 00:23:27.799
He was their best salesman before Well, the trouble happened.

407
00:23:28.119 --> 00:23:29.599
They won't hold it against him, will they.

408
00:23:30.119 --> 00:23:33.319
I don't know. I want to ask you a few things.

409
00:23:34.000 --> 00:23:39.000
Oh sure, missus Rydell. Before the trial, you told me

410
00:23:39.039 --> 00:23:42.000
your husband was the jealous type.

411
00:23:42.440 --> 00:23:43.759
Yeah, that's right.

412
00:23:43.799 --> 00:23:46.240
But you said there was never any reason for his

413
00:23:46.359 --> 00:23:47.279
jealous Do we.

414
00:23:47.279 --> 00:23:50.240
Have to go through that again. The trial's over, isn't it.

415
00:23:50.279 --> 00:23:55.599
Please? It's more important than you think. Why this delivery boy?

416
00:23:56.079 --> 00:24:00.359
Yost I tried to underplay Lou's anger about him in court,

417
00:24:00.480 --> 00:24:03.480
but he was really pretty sore about the past. He

418
00:24:03.519 --> 00:24:04.680
made it you wasn't it?

419
00:24:04.680 --> 00:24:09.839
But I told you all that this Lou was sore, sore,

420
00:24:10.839 --> 00:24:13.599
he was crazy. I didn't even want to tell him

421
00:24:13.599 --> 00:24:15.119
about the kid because I was afraid.

422
00:24:15.839 --> 00:24:18.680
Well, you know this is right. Well, the trial is over.

423
00:24:18.839 --> 00:24:21.079
Just as you said, nobody can charge Lou with the

424
00:24:21.119 --> 00:24:24.279
same crime again. That's the law in this state. So

425
00:24:24.359 --> 00:24:28.000
you've got nothing to lose by telling me the absolute truth.

426
00:24:28.000 --> 00:24:28.680
About what.

427
00:24:30.400 --> 00:24:34.640
Lou did kill that boy, didn't he? Hey, he waited

428
00:24:34.680 --> 00:24:37.240
for him the next day and choked him to death.

429
00:24:37.279 --> 00:24:38.160
It's a dirty lie.

430
00:24:39.079 --> 00:24:40.279
How could you have all people?

431
00:24:40.279 --> 00:24:42.160
All right? All right? Maybe you didn't know the truth.

432
00:24:42.240 --> 00:24:44.960
Maybe you believed your husband the way I did. You

433
00:24:45.119 --> 00:24:48.000
get out of here, mister, please, I'm not through. The

434
00:24:48.079 --> 00:24:50.839
reason I know this is because Lou told me himself

435
00:24:51.039 --> 00:24:55.039
yesterday in my office. Lou isn't going to change because

436
00:24:55.079 --> 00:24:58.400
of the trial. He's an insanely jealous man and he

437
00:24:58.519 --> 00:25:00.599
might very well do the same thing again.

438
00:25:01.279 --> 00:25:05.000
You're awful. I thought you were so nice, mister Murray,

439
00:25:05.000 --> 00:25:05.799
but you're terrible.

440
00:25:05.839 --> 00:25:07.920
I had to let you know how things are with Lou.

441
00:25:08.359 --> 00:25:10.559
He got away with murder and that makes me sick

442
00:25:10.599 --> 00:25:13.279
to my stomach. There's not much I can do about it,

443
00:25:13.319 --> 00:25:16.960
but maybe you can do something, Missus rydell me. You

444
00:25:17.000 --> 00:25:22.279
can be careful, do you understand. No, You've got to

445
00:25:22.319 --> 00:25:26.000
make sure he never has any reason to be jealous.

446
00:25:26.319 --> 00:25:28.759
Listen, if you think I play around, and if.

447
00:25:28.599 --> 00:25:33.119
He misunderstands your behavior, somebody else might get Loo's hands

448
00:25:33.119 --> 00:25:36.480
around his throat. It might even be easier for him

449
00:25:36.519 --> 00:25:40.519
the next time he got away with it once. Please,

450
00:25:40.799 --> 00:25:46.799
missus Rydell, for his sake, all right, for mine, don't

451
00:25:46.960 --> 00:25:48.680
make your husband kill again.

452
00:25:55.440 --> 00:25:58.839
I don't know about you, but I think mister Murray's

453
00:25:58.880 --> 00:26:03.599
request is very reasonable. The only problem of course, is

454
00:26:03.680 --> 00:26:08.640
exactly how reasonable lou Rydell is. There's something about the

455
00:26:08.720 --> 00:26:13.480
man's eyes, the way his hands twitched. Personally, I don't

456
00:26:13.519 --> 00:26:15.720
think it would be a very good idea to wink.

457
00:26:15.480 --> 00:26:20.119
At missus Rydell. I'll return shortly for that too.

458
00:26:21.680 --> 00:26:26.440
Oh, somebody's been drinking my sugar free Diet seven up

459
00:26:27.000 --> 00:26:28.599
and it's all good.

460
00:26:29.279 --> 00:26:34.319
Actually I saved a little higher, Goldie, what's brewing?

461
00:26:34.559 --> 00:26:36.680
That's Miss Goldilocks to you.

462
00:26:36.720 --> 00:26:39.039
Oh, come on, kid, you mean you don't remember me?

463
00:26:39.240 --> 00:26:43.079
The cottage, the three chairs of Horrids beer in the

464
00:26:43.359 --> 00:26:48.119
fur been a long time, Goldie baby beer call me, Bb.

465
00:26:48.640 --> 00:26:52.000
You drink all the sugar free Diet seven up and

466
00:26:52.079 --> 00:26:55.319
I have to conduct another diet drink taste test today.

467
00:26:55.599 --> 00:26:58.079
Yeah, I saw the sign on the door, a professional

468
00:26:58.119 --> 00:26:58.720
taste tester.

469
00:26:59.400 --> 00:27:01.400
How can I conduct my taste test?

470
00:27:01.519 --> 00:27:01.680
Now?

471
00:27:01.920 --> 00:27:04.680
Why bother? I try those other diet drinks too.

472
00:27:04.920 --> 00:27:06.880
You'll notice there's still plenty of them around.

473
00:27:07.039 --> 00:27:07.839
Why don't ask me?

474
00:27:08.160 --> 00:27:11.839
Well, OKBB, tell me why did you drink all the

475
00:27:11.920 --> 00:27:13.519
sugar free diets seven up?

476
00:27:13.640 --> 00:27:17.839
I like the taste light fresh natural sugar free Diet

477
00:27:17.880 --> 00:27:27.799
seven up is definitely unbearably delicious people can reach, people

478
00:27:28.240 --> 00:27:34.079
can touch, people can people so much.

479
00:27:34.759 --> 00:27:37.319
If you can remember World War Two, you can remember

480
00:27:37.359 --> 00:27:39.680
when people spoke about cancer and a whisper.

481
00:27:40.240 --> 00:27:40.839
Once it was.

482
00:27:40.839 --> 00:27:46.200
Known someone had cancer, nobody talked about it. I'm Paul Newman.

483
00:27:46.839 --> 00:27:50.000
Today we talk about cancer quite openly, except for one

484
00:27:50.000 --> 00:27:52.680
form of it, the one nobody likes to talk about

485
00:27:52.839 --> 00:27:55.839
still cancer, the colon and rectum.

486
00:27:56.079 --> 00:27:58.279
It's the most common form of internal cancer.

487
00:27:59.000 --> 00:28:02.039
Doctors estimate three out of four patients could be saved by.

488
00:28:01.920 --> 00:28:04.759
Early detection and treatment. That means, when you.

489
00:28:04.640 --> 00:28:07.960
Have your regular health checkup, especially if you're over forty,

490
00:28:08.440 --> 00:28:10.119
talk to your doctor about a procto.

491
00:28:10.839 --> 00:28:13.920
Fight cancer with a checkup and a generous check.

492
00:28:14.240 --> 00:28:19.640
When your American Cancer Society volunteer calls cancer crusaders people

493
00:28:19.720 --> 00:28:20.799
who care about.

494
00:28:20.559 --> 00:28:39.200
People, and now here's act too. After the verdict, It's

495
00:28:39.240 --> 00:28:42.319
a bright Sunday morning, the kind of morning that fills

496
00:28:42.440 --> 00:28:46.000
promising young men like Ned Murray with enthusiasm for life.

497
00:28:46.559 --> 00:28:49.880
After all, he has everything going for him, a fine

498
00:28:49.960 --> 00:28:53.680
career ahead, marriage to a lovely young lady who also

499
00:28:53.839 --> 00:28:57.319
happens to be the boss's daughter. And even if his

500
00:28:57.400 --> 00:29:01.319
recent triumph has turned a bit sour, was still a triumph,

501
00:29:01.480 --> 00:29:01.839
wasn't it?

502
00:29:02.720 --> 00:29:05.759
But as Ned Murray goes to see Harry Ostrow.

503
00:29:05.480 --> 00:29:09.079
He finds the sun isn't shining in the big corner office,

504
00:29:09.720 --> 00:29:11.079
that shades are drawn.

505
00:29:12.039 --> 00:29:15.319
His boss's face is a thundercloud. You wanted to see me,

506
00:29:15.400 --> 00:29:22.319
mister Osto? Yes, come in and shut the door. Well,

507
00:29:22.359 --> 00:29:27.039
mister Murray, nice to see you again. Hello lord, what

508
00:29:27.079 --> 00:29:30.519
are you doing here? Mister Ryedall's told me something I

509
00:29:30.599 --> 00:29:34.640
find hard to believe. Ned. I said he must be mistaken,

510
00:29:34.680 --> 00:29:38.160
but he swears it's true. Did you go to see

511
00:29:38.200 --> 00:29:43.359
missus ride down yesterday? Yes? Why did you think it

512
00:29:43.400 --> 00:29:47.200
was necessary to do that? I had something I wanted

513
00:29:47.200 --> 00:29:50.039
to tell her. It was strictly an unofficial visit. You

514
00:29:50.160 --> 00:29:53.000
told her I was guilty. He went up there deliberately

515
00:29:53.119 --> 00:29:55.599
just to frighten her. I gotta assume you for what

516
00:29:55.680 --> 00:29:59.119
you did, mister Murray. Lawyer, no lawyer? What kind of

517
00:29:59.160 --> 00:30:04.759
nonsense is this? You didn't say any such thing, did you? Well?

518
00:30:05.640 --> 00:30:09.720
Did you? Yes, sir, I did what. I didn't go

519
00:30:09.759 --> 00:30:13.319
there to frighten her just a warner. Right after the trial,

520
00:30:13.440 --> 00:30:16.079
mister Rydell here obliged me with a nice little confession

521
00:30:16.920 --> 00:30:19.880
a little late. I'm afraid confession. What are you talking about?

522
00:30:19.920 --> 00:30:22.759
That's a lie. I don't know what you got against me,

523
00:30:22.839 --> 00:30:26.319
mister Murray. I never heard of a lawyer behaving like this.

524
00:30:26.480 --> 00:30:30.759
I didn't kill that boy. The jury said so, and that. Please,

525
00:30:30.880 --> 00:30:34.480
this is all so ridiculous. Mister Rydell put it very bluntly.

526
00:30:34.599 --> 00:30:37.200
He said he killed Yost. He said he'd kill again

527
00:30:37.279 --> 00:30:40.559
if another Yost came along. You can't do that. It's over.

528
00:30:40.759 --> 00:30:43.119
The trial's over. They can't put me through this again.

529
00:30:43.319 --> 00:30:46.960
They can't. No, no, mister Rydell, of course they can't.

530
00:30:47.119 --> 00:30:51.880
There's nothing to get excited about. Mister Murray. Just misunderstood you,

531
00:30:52.000 --> 00:30:52.440
that's all.

532
00:30:52.519 --> 00:30:55.480
I read him, loud and clear. I knew I couldn't

533
00:30:55.480 --> 00:30:57.000
get him back in a courtroom.

534
00:30:56.559 --> 00:30:58.599
Because of double jeopardy, but I thought if I went

535
00:30:58.640 --> 00:31:00.759
to the DA, he'd be a lot more careful with

536
00:31:00.839 --> 00:31:04.400
his hands. The next time. I'll sue you. I'll sue

537
00:31:04.400 --> 00:31:07.880
this whole firm. Prislander. You hear that, Astra. Please, man,

538
00:31:09.160 --> 00:31:14.200
apologize to mister Riddell. Tell him you didn't mean it. Apologize. Yes,

539
00:31:14.359 --> 00:31:17.559
I should apologize to the state for saving his skin

540
00:31:17.640 --> 00:31:20.720
head Ma, you listen to me.

541
00:31:20.839 --> 00:31:21.039
Now.

542
00:31:22.680 --> 00:31:24.799
I don't know what went on between you and this man,

543
00:31:24.799 --> 00:31:28.599
and I don't care. But he's a client. Understand my client,

544
00:31:28.920 --> 00:31:30.200
even if you handle the case.

545
00:31:30.920 --> 00:31:33.480
And that's such a thing as lawyer client privilege.

546
00:31:33.519 --> 00:31:36.079
Since when does it include murder? Shut up and listen

547
00:31:36.119 --> 00:31:39.400
to me. Anything you do reflects on me on the

548
00:31:39.400 --> 00:31:43.039
way I run this firm. Mister Ridell got a fair

549
00:31:43.160 --> 00:31:46.920
trial under law, better than fair, yes, and.

550
00:31:46.960 --> 00:31:48.079
The jury acquitted him.

551
00:31:48.200 --> 00:31:51.119
That's all we have to know. You don't have any

552
00:31:51.200 --> 00:31:54.000
right to violate any confidences he made to you.

553
00:31:54.960 --> 00:31:56.519
And they teach you that in law school.

554
00:31:56.559 --> 00:32:01.160
They taught me something else. They taught me the lawyer's

555
00:32:01.240 --> 00:32:05.599
main concern was the justice here. Talk about justice, hanh.

556
00:32:06.400 --> 00:32:09.160
Go talk to that hoodlum buddy of yours, Tony, I go,

557
00:32:10.400 --> 00:32:12.400
if there was justice, you think that crook would be

558
00:32:12.440 --> 00:32:16.279
walking around. Tony was innocent of that murder charge because

559
00:32:16.400 --> 00:32:20.240
the jury said so. And they said the same thing

560
00:32:20.279 --> 00:32:24.359
about mister Ridell here. And that's that, my boy.

561
00:32:25.440 --> 00:32:38.920
Understand Oh who is it?

562
00:32:40.200 --> 00:32:40.400
Oh?

563
00:32:41.119 --> 00:32:43.960
For Pete's sake, Anthony, the other guy gets some rest

564
00:32:44.039 --> 00:32:44.920
in his own home.

565
00:32:46.160 --> 00:32:48.839
Well, have I caught you with the blonde.

566
00:32:49.960 --> 00:32:51.640
You caught me with a bottle.

567
00:32:51.519 --> 00:32:56.880
And just in time, obviously. Well, the least I can

568
00:32:56.920 --> 00:32:58.680
do is make sure you don't drink alone.

569
00:32:59.000 --> 00:33:02.160
Not enough of us. Even if I give you this,

570
00:33:02.920 --> 00:33:04.200
what is it a present?

571
00:33:05.000 --> 00:33:07.200
Open it?

572
00:33:07.200 --> 00:33:09.599
It's that pipe you were so crazy about, the one

573
00:33:09.599 --> 00:33:12.480
with the ivory carving. I was saving it for some

574
00:33:12.839 --> 00:33:16.559
special occasion, but your birthday isn't for six months.

575
00:33:17.480 --> 00:33:21.759
It's a beauty. If you're going to bribe me, I prefer.

576
00:33:21.640 --> 00:33:25.480
Cash, really, and I thought i'd use sex appeal.

577
00:33:26.440 --> 00:33:28.039
I understand that, sure fire.

578
00:33:28.960 --> 00:33:34.519
Excuse me, it's time for another drink. What's so funny

579
00:33:34.839 --> 00:33:35.759
the whole thing?

580
00:33:36.599 --> 00:33:36.680
You?

581
00:33:37.400 --> 00:33:37.720
Father?

582
00:33:38.640 --> 00:33:41.160
He told me about that scene in his office this morning.

583
00:33:41.359 --> 00:33:44.279
I wish I could have been there. Clarence Darrow versus

584
00:33:44.319 --> 00:33:46.519
William Jennings Bryan it wasn't.

585
00:33:46.880 --> 00:33:50.240
It was stupid versus childish, and all because of that.

586
00:33:50.279 --> 00:33:52.839
All because of that silly man with the funny eyes.

587
00:33:53.160 --> 00:33:57.079
Honestly, Ned, I hope you won't make any more fuss

588
00:33:57.119 --> 00:33:57.839
about him.

589
00:33:58.200 --> 00:34:00.440
I thought it was Daddy who was making the fuss.

590
00:34:00.680 --> 00:34:04.000
Believe me, I think he feels just awful about the

591
00:34:04.039 --> 00:34:05.119
whole silly quarrel.

592
00:34:05.359 --> 00:34:07.240
Yeah, I'll bet he does.

593
00:34:07.720 --> 00:34:11.599
Oh, for heaven's sake, Ned, why would you want to

594
00:34:11.639 --> 00:34:12.800
spoil things now?

595
00:34:14.159 --> 00:34:16.280
All right, maybe that idiotic.

596
00:34:15.840 --> 00:34:18.239
Man did kill that grocery boy, but I'm not saying

597
00:34:18.239 --> 00:34:21.880
he didn't. But we wouldn't be the first time that

598
00:34:21.920 --> 00:34:23.880
a guilty man is dead.

599
00:34:24.519 --> 00:34:27.599
It's the first time for me. Don't you want to

600
00:34:27.639 --> 00:34:29.760
stand that the first time I ever got a guilty

601
00:34:29.800 --> 00:34:30.400
man off?

602
00:34:31.000 --> 00:34:35.320
Was it really darling? That man I got was innocent?

603
00:34:35.519 --> 00:34:35.679
Wait?

604
00:34:35.760 --> 00:34:36.960
Innocent of that crime?

605
00:34:37.119 --> 00:34:37.559
Maybe?

606
00:34:37.559 --> 00:34:40.599
But what about all the others might have killed a

607
00:34:40.599 --> 00:34:42.559
dozen men before or had them killed.

608
00:34:42.599 --> 00:34:46.519
He wasn't being tried for killing a dozen men, only one,

609
00:34:47.159 --> 00:34:48.320
and he was innocent of that.

610
00:34:50.039 --> 00:34:51.880
I should know better than to talk to you while

611
00:34:51.880 --> 00:34:52.480
you're drinking.

612
00:34:52.800 --> 00:34:55.559
I'm going to the District Attorney tomorrow, Karen. Even if

613
00:34:55.559 --> 00:34:57.559
it doesn't do a bit of good, I'll feel better

614
00:34:57.599 --> 00:34:57.960
for it.

615
00:34:58.000 --> 00:35:00.599
Do you know what the DA will say. He'll say,

616
00:35:00.639 --> 00:35:01.280
you're a fool.

617
00:35:01.360 --> 00:35:01.960
I don't care.

618
00:35:02.199 --> 00:35:05.199
You haven't got a shred of proof, not a shred,

619
00:35:05.960 --> 00:35:07.920
And all the proof in the world wouldn't put lou

620
00:35:08.000 --> 00:35:09.239
Rydell back on the stand.

621
00:35:09.559 --> 00:35:12.360
You know that, don't you? If you go to the

622
00:35:12.400 --> 00:35:12.679
d A.

623
00:35:12.760 --> 00:35:15.920
Tomorrow, you you can find yourself another connection.

624
00:35:17.760 --> 00:35:20.280
What was that? Oh?

625
00:35:21.000 --> 00:35:24.639
I'm sorry, Ned, but he did say.

626
00:35:24.400 --> 00:35:27.719
It, And I know my father, I know he never

627
00:35:27.760 --> 00:35:29.159
says anything he doesn't mean.

628
00:35:30.079 --> 00:35:36.360
What about you, Karen? What about the connection between me

629
00:35:36.719 --> 00:35:37.159
and you?

630
00:35:38.800 --> 00:35:41.760
I waited long enough for you to get serious about me, Ned,

631
00:35:43.079 --> 00:35:45.880
I can wait a little longer until you come to

632
00:35:45.920 --> 00:35:46.559
your senses.

633
00:35:48.159 --> 00:36:02.760
And that's the real bribe, isn't it. Ah? Hey, well

634
00:36:03.519 --> 00:36:07.760
was that? It's all racket about all.

635
00:36:07.800 --> 00:36:08.840
I take it easy.

636
00:36:09.039 --> 00:36:10.119
Good night, shall.

637
00:36:12.119 --> 00:36:15.199
Tony. What the heck are you doing here?

638
00:36:15.480 --> 00:36:15.639
Oh?

639
00:36:15.800 --> 00:36:18.960
Hey, you've really been working at a kid? Huh, I'm

640
00:36:19.000 --> 00:36:24.519
an invited guest. Remember No, I guess you don't by

641
00:36:24.559 --> 00:36:26.360
an hour ago you called me up, told me to

642
00:36:26.360 --> 00:36:28.280
come have a drink with you. Well, you're right, I

643
00:36:28.320 --> 00:36:30.239
am one change of mind.

644
00:36:30.360 --> 00:36:31.920
No, no, no, come on it.

645
00:36:32.920 --> 00:36:35.559
I told you make mine ginger ale or something. I'll

646
00:36:35.599 --> 00:36:36.239
drink with you.

647
00:36:36.400 --> 00:36:38.679
It's a good things, good thing, Tony. That's that's about

648
00:36:38.679 --> 00:36:40.920
all I've got left. Just one more drink?

649
00:36:41.280 --> 00:36:42.960
Hey, Hey, hey, hey.

650
00:36:42.880 --> 00:36:45.920
What is this kid? This celebration going a long time,

651
00:36:46.000 --> 00:36:51.119
ain't it. I'm not celebrating now, Tony. Miserating. That's the word,

652
00:36:51.199 --> 00:36:55.400
isn't it doesn't sound right. Come misirating, don't asked me.

653
00:36:55.480 --> 00:36:58.199
I never heard it before. It means I'm feeling sorry

654
00:36:58.239 --> 00:37:02.960
for somebody who for a dumb kid the name of

655
00:37:03.199 --> 00:37:05.880
Yost dumb kids from the grocery.

656
00:37:06.039 --> 00:37:08.360
You mean a kid that got killed. Yeah, that's right,

657
00:37:08.480 --> 00:37:11.920
that got killed. Yeah, and you know who killed him?

658
00:37:12.079 --> 00:37:19.280
How should I know? Where's that drink? Oh? Here's the crime?

659
00:37:19.599 --> 00:37:24.159
Tony? Put it down? Then you heard me? Put it down?

660
00:37:24.559 --> 00:37:26.679
You want to tell me your trouble is okay, I'll

661
00:37:26.719 --> 00:37:28.920
put on a pot of coffee for both of us.

662
00:37:36.920 --> 00:37:40.519
That make you feel any better? No, give it time, Tony,

663
00:37:40.559 --> 00:37:42.440
were you listening to me? Did you hear what I

664
00:37:42.519 --> 00:37:42.920
told you?

665
00:37:43.320 --> 00:37:43.519
Yeah?

666
00:37:43.599 --> 00:37:46.360
I heard you. This guy, right, Dell is a Kouka boot.

667
00:37:46.360 --> 00:37:49.880
He's getting away with murder, Tony, and maybe you'll get

668
00:37:49.920 --> 00:37:52.639
away with another one. Now, next time it will be different,

669
00:37:53.679 --> 00:37:57.639
you know, different from one thing. Meantime, somebody gets killed?

670
00:37:57.760 --> 00:37:58.599
What's that to you?

671
00:38:00.119 --> 00:38:02.800
I'm sorry, sir, I forgot the kind of guy I'm.

672
00:38:02.639 --> 00:38:04.800
Talking to him. What am I gonna feel like when

673
00:38:04.800 --> 00:38:07.880
it happens, Tony? Well, there must be some way to

674
00:38:08.000 --> 00:38:12.480
nail this crumb. No, no, there isn't the law protects

675
00:38:12.519 --> 00:38:15.920
him double jeopardy. A man can't be tried twice for

676
00:38:15.960 --> 00:38:19.320
the same crime. That's how it goes, Tony. One trial

677
00:38:19.440 --> 00:38:21.719
to a customer. It's a shame, all right.

678
00:38:22.159 --> 00:38:25.280
They hung better guys than that, and he's walking around

679
00:38:25.280 --> 00:38:27.760
free as he that's the law, Tony.

680
00:38:28.079 --> 00:38:31.920
Yeah, you had the law. Okay, the bothers you so much?

681
00:38:32.480 --> 00:38:36.679
Stop him? Tell me how everybody else has to pay

682
00:38:36.679 --> 00:38:37.239
the penalty?

683
00:38:37.360 --> 00:38:37.519
Right?

684
00:38:38.800 --> 00:38:42.119
Why not him? It's too late. It's too late, Tony.

685
00:38:42.320 --> 00:38:45.159
What a law? Maybe? Huh?

686
00:38:45.800 --> 00:38:53.039
Once more coffee? I think I get myself a company. Yeah,

687
00:38:53.119 --> 00:38:57.599
maybe there's an answer you want. I've been waiting a

688
00:38:57.639 --> 00:39:00.320
long time to figure out what I could do for you, Ned.

689
00:39:00.559 --> 00:39:02.920
What kind of favor might be important to you?

690
00:39:03.880 --> 00:39:04.079
Now?

691
00:39:04.159 --> 00:39:08.639
I know how do you mean favor? It won't be

692
00:39:08.840 --> 00:39:11.880
just for you. I'd be doing everybody in favor, the

693
00:39:11.920 --> 00:39:18.000
whole state. Right when it happens, I mean it for you, Ned,

694
00:39:18.800 --> 00:39:24.079
remember that. See it's good coffee.

695
00:39:25.400 --> 00:39:30.360
Well see you around, Tony. Wait, wait, wait a minute,

696
00:39:30.440 --> 00:39:33.239
it's getting late, kid, I have to go. What what

697
00:39:33.400 --> 00:39:36.039
was that you just said? What's what's in your mind?

698
00:39:36.400 --> 00:39:36.679
Nothing?

699
00:39:36.840 --> 00:39:38.119
Nothing? Come on.

700
00:39:38.360 --> 00:39:40.119
I did my good deed for day.

701
00:39:41.079 --> 00:39:43.159
Let me out of here now, huh. I want to

702
00:39:43.159 --> 00:39:46.480
know what you meant by a favor. You know what

703
00:39:46.519 --> 00:39:50.519
the word means. You're thinking of killing right now?

704
00:39:50.760 --> 00:39:50.920
Oh?

705
00:39:51.199 --> 00:39:52.880
You see too many.

706
00:39:52.440 --> 00:39:55.400
Movies, Hony, don't be crazy. I don't want that kind

707
00:39:55.440 --> 00:39:59.360
of favor, understand, Yeah, yeah, yeah? Sure, Just let them lose. Huh.

708
00:39:59.519 --> 00:40:03.360
So he gets away with murderer. Killing him is no answer.

709
00:40:03.599 --> 00:40:06.239
Sure, So let some murder slabs get knocked off.

710
00:40:06.360 --> 00:40:10.039
Huh. That's better. I didn't mean all those things I said, Tony,

711
00:40:10.079 --> 00:40:12.639
you got the wrong idea. This guy didn't kill a

712
00:40:12.639 --> 00:40:15.440
grocery boy. He's killing YouTube buddy, and that's what I

713
00:40:15.679 --> 00:40:18.840
care about. But you got nothing to be afraid of.

714
00:40:19.679 --> 00:40:21.119
Nothing's going to rub off on you.

715
00:40:22.360 --> 00:40:27.280
I know my business just like you know yours.

716
00:40:27.079 --> 00:40:29.519
It's a long kid, Tony.

717
00:40:34.639 --> 00:40:38.920
Usually it's a very good thing to have friends, loyal

718
00:40:39.039 --> 00:40:40.960
friends who are always willing.

719
00:40:40.719 --> 00:40:41.880
To do you a favor.

720
00:40:43.159 --> 00:40:45.559
But it looks as if Tony Igo is going to

721
00:40:45.599 --> 00:40:48.840
do a good deed by committing a very bad deed.

722
00:40:50.159 --> 00:40:56.599
The question is can one murder avenge another. We'll find

723
00:40:56.639 --> 00:41:00.360
out shortly when we return with Act Free.

724
00:41:03.559 --> 00:41:05.719
You've seeing the Budweiser commercials on television.

725
00:41:05.880 --> 00:41:08.519
And maybe you've wondered how long people have been putting

726
00:41:08.519 --> 00:41:10.639
that famous Bud label on things.

727
00:41:10.920 --> 00:41:13.000
Well, not as long as the brewers of Bud have

728
00:41:13.039 --> 00:41:15.079
been putting things on the label.

729
00:41:15.480 --> 00:41:18.199
Things like a list of Bud's most important ingmediates.

730
00:41:18.760 --> 00:41:23.159
Quote brewed by our original process from the choicest tops rice.

731
00:41:22.920 --> 00:41:26.440
And best barley mall, And things like the following statement,

732
00:41:27.159 --> 00:41:30.039
this is the famous Budweiser beer. We know of no

733
00:41:30.159 --> 00:41:33.639
brand produced by any other brewer which costs so much

734
00:41:33.679 --> 00:41:37.760
to brew in age. Our exclusive beechwood aging produces a taste,

735
00:41:37.840 --> 00:41:40.400
a smoothness, and a drinkability.

736
00:41:39.920 --> 00:41:45.119
You'll find in no other beer at any price. Quote. Yes,

737
00:41:45.400 --> 00:41:47.960
brewing beer right does make a difference.

738
00:41:48.480 --> 00:41:52.199
Read the Bud label, taste the king of beers, and

739
00:41:52.280 --> 00:41:56.840
you'll agree when you say Budweiser, you've said it all,

740
00:41:57.880 --> 00:42:01.800
Anne isaer Bush Saint Louis.

741
00:42:02.679 --> 00:42:07.760
You're seventeen, Well that's plenty old, old enough to know

742
00:42:07.800 --> 00:42:11.239
about things like grass and speed and nasset and smack.

743
00:42:13.079 --> 00:42:15.400
We probably can't tell you anything about the stuff you

744
00:42:15.480 --> 00:42:19.280
haven't already heard or maybe even found out for yourself,

745
00:42:20.400 --> 00:42:23.599
so we don't intend to give you any advice. He

746
00:42:23.599 --> 00:42:28.599
wouldn't listen. But the trouble is, neither will your kid brother.

747
00:42:29.840 --> 00:42:33.079
He doesn't know half of what you know. He doesn't

748
00:42:33.079 --> 00:42:36.519
know how dope can affect your body. He's never spent

749
00:42:36.559 --> 00:42:39.199
a violent night hugging a friend who was on a

750
00:42:39.199 --> 00:42:42.320
bad trip. Or watch a guy not off in class

751
00:42:42.559 --> 00:42:47.079
follow the floor. He's just a kid in a real

752
00:42:47.159 --> 00:42:50.960
setup for anybody out there selling the stuff. We'd like

753
00:42:51.000 --> 00:42:54.800
to warn your little brother, too bad. He doesn't trust us.

754
00:42:55.360 --> 00:42:59.320
We can't get to him, but maybe you.

755
00:42:59.440 --> 00:43:04.079
Can an advertising council campaign.

756
00:43:16.199 --> 00:43:21.000
Now the last act of after the verdict. Listen closely.

757
00:43:22.559 --> 00:43:29.880
Here's a sound we don't hear very often. Yes, what

758
00:43:30.079 --> 00:43:34.639
with all these electric clocks and digital clocks and electronic clocks,

759
00:43:35.280 --> 00:43:38.400
the good old fashioned ticking that marks off the minutes

760
00:43:38.440 --> 00:43:42.760
and hours of the night is rarely heard. But tonight,

761
00:43:43.559 --> 00:43:47.039
Mad Murray is hearing that sound, hearing it from a

762
00:43:47.119 --> 00:43:51.760
clock which normally purrs softly on his night table. But

763
00:43:51.920 --> 00:43:56.320
Ned's hearing is highly sensitive. Tonight, his brain is tuned

764
00:43:56.440 --> 00:44:01.159
like a high frequency instrument, picking out the sleigh just vibrations,

765
00:44:02.039 --> 00:44:04.440
tuning in on voices he doesn't want to hear.

766
00:44:06.880 --> 00:44:10.960
I'm sure, I killed that boy is murried. I waited

767
00:44:11.039 --> 00:44:14.840
in the hall when you like. It was like breaking

768
00:44:14.920 --> 00:44:19.519
the neck of a chicken. It won't be just to

769
00:44:19.559 --> 00:44:23.079
be youl that I'd be doing everybody of favor. And

770
00:44:23.199 --> 00:44:24.800
all say, right.

771
00:44:26.440 --> 00:44:31.760
Yes, that's true enough. They hung better guys to that.

772
00:44:32.039 --> 00:44:38.079
And he's walking around freezey. Yes, everybody has to pay

773
00:44:38.159 --> 00:44:39.599
the bally right?

774
00:44:41.000 --> 00:44:43.000
Why not him?

775
00:44:43.079 --> 00:44:49.599
Yes it's true. Why shouldn't he pay? A man is murdered,

776
00:44:50.519 --> 00:44:55.079
A murderer has to pay. Tony is right, he's right.

777
00:44:59.039 --> 00:45:01.280
Hello, how are you, darling?

778
00:45:02.719 --> 00:45:04.800
I'm all right. I'm in bed.

779
00:45:05.039 --> 00:45:07.039
Oh, I'm sorry. Did I wake you up?

780
00:45:07.480 --> 00:45:10.000
No? No, I'm just lying here.

781
00:45:10.360 --> 00:45:12.159
You're not sick, are you?

782
00:45:12.199 --> 00:45:12.440
No?

783
00:45:13.039 --> 00:45:15.639
It's only ten thirty. I didn't think you went to

784
00:45:15.679 --> 00:45:16.400
bed so early.

785
00:45:17.559 --> 00:45:18.320
I did tonight.

786
00:45:19.159 --> 00:45:21.639
You're angry with me, aren't you?

787
00:45:21.679 --> 00:45:24.840
No, Karen, I'm just tired. I drank too much.

788
00:45:25.119 --> 00:45:29.159
Oh I knew you'd do that, Nedda, I'm so mixed up.

789
00:45:29.639 --> 00:45:32.920
Well what's that of being mixed up about? The choices

790
00:45:32.960 --> 00:45:34.440
are pretty clear, aren't they are?

791
00:45:34.559 --> 00:45:35.599
They not?

792
00:45:35.719 --> 00:45:35.960
To me?

793
00:45:36.079 --> 00:45:36.360
They are?

794
00:45:37.039 --> 00:45:39.960
I don't think things are ever that simple, especially when

795
00:45:40.039 --> 00:45:40.960
it comes to law.

796
00:45:42.079 --> 00:45:45.280
Just ask your father he knows all about the law.

797
00:45:46.239 --> 00:45:48.639
He knows how to make money at it. That proves it.

798
00:45:49.119 --> 00:45:53.360
That isn't fair, ned, No, no, no, no, I suppose

799
00:45:53.360 --> 00:45:53.719
it isn't.

800
00:45:54.199 --> 00:45:55.800
Don't you remember what he used to say?

801
00:45:56.480 --> 00:45:58.920
That is the time ever comes when right and wrong

802
00:45:58.960 --> 00:46:02.440
are absolutely clear, there won't be any need for lawyers.

803
00:46:02.800 --> 00:46:06.119
My father didn't say that, Karen. He was quoting someone,

804
00:46:06.800 --> 00:46:09.400
Judge Lincoln Arthur, as a matter of fact, the judge

805
00:46:09.440 --> 00:46:10.679
at Rydell's trial.

806
00:46:11.119 --> 00:46:13.360
Well, it makes very good sense to me.

807
00:46:14.480 --> 00:46:19.960
Yeah, Judge Arthur always made sense to me too, Karen.

808
00:46:21.000 --> 00:46:23.280
Do you mind if I hang up now and you

809
00:46:23.360 --> 00:46:24.440
are angry?

810
00:46:24.559 --> 00:46:24.760
No?

811
00:46:24.760 --> 00:46:26.679
No, no, no, It's just that I have to make

812
00:46:26.679 --> 00:46:31.320
a call, a very important call. All right, man, Will

813
00:46:31.400 --> 00:46:45.920
you call me tomorrow? Yes? If there is one? Good night, Karen. Information.

814
00:46:46.840 --> 00:46:50.679
Can you give me the number of a judge Lincoln Arthur?

815
00:47:00.320 --> 00:47:04.320
You don't want me? Why need no judge? Thanks. I've

816
00:47:04.360 --> 00:47:07.519
sworn off that stuff for the duration of my life.

817
00:47:09.480 --> 00:47:12.760
As that you had yourself a party, is that when

818
00:47:12.800 --> 00:47:17.039
you came up with parable you know what you call it?

819
00:47:17.679 --> 00:47:21.960
No, judge, it's more like a riddle, a legal riddle.

820
00:47:22.719 --> 00:47:28.159
The only thing is I already know the answer. Let's

821
00:47:28.159 --> 00:47:31.960
see if I know it. It's about a lawyer, a

822
00:47:32.000 --> 00:47:36.559
criminal lawyer, who defends somebody from murder and does it successfully.

823
00:47:37.239 --> 00:47:40.800
He's convinced of his client's innocence, understand, and that helps

824
00:47:40.840 --> 00:47:44.559
him get the acquittal. But right after the verdict he

825
00:47:44.639 --> 00:47:49.840
makes a discovery that his client is guilty. How does

826
00:47:49.880 --> 00:47:54.199
he make this discovery? Is that important? It might be?

827
00:47:55.679 --> 00:47:58.679
Was it on evidence that had appeared at the trial?

828
00:48:00.280 --> 00:48:03.960
Evidence he had misinterpreted or conceived or knowingly?

829
00:48:04.519 --> 00:48:11.119
No, it was a confession. How does he obtain this confession?

830
00:48:12.079 --> 00:48:18.159
It's given to him unsolicited by his clients. Why. I

831
00:48:18.199 --> 00:48:25.000
don't know. Perversity, pride, ego. Anyway, he knows the truth

832
00:48:25.079 --> 00:48:29.039
about his client, and he knows something worse, that the

833
00:48:29.079 --> 00:48:32.239
man is more than capable of committing a similar crime.

834
00:48:32.920 --> 00:48:37.920
In fact, he boasts of the possibility, almost gleefully. And

835
00:48:38.079 --> 00:48:43.800
he witnesses this confession. No, I mean, when he's confronted

836
00:48:43.800 --> 00:48:46.639
with it, the client denies ever having made it.

837
00:48:48.599 --> 00:48:52.599
You're not asking a legal question, and I'm sure you

838
00:48:52.719 --> 00:48:59.000
know a hypathetical lawyer stands legally in the middle of nowhere.

839
00:49:00.400 --> 00:49:04.119
Is this a moral question? Maybe? Man, you might say, that.

840
00:49:05.159 --> 00:49:09.000
I mean, if you were that lawyer, judge, what would

841
00:49:09.000 --> 00:49:09.320
you do?

842
00:49:10.519 --> 00:49:12.920
If I were that law your ed and if I

843
00:49:13.039 --> 00:49:17.000
were your age, I suppose I do what you're doing now.

844
00:49:18.199 --> 00:49:22.800
I'd get angry with my client, with myself, maybe even

845
00:49:22.840 --> 00:49:28.039
with the law. But if I were practicing now, and

846
00:49:28.079 --> 00:49:28.840
I think i'd.

847
00:49:28.679 --> 00:49:35.400
Feel different, How different? I wouldn't feel anger, only pity,

848
00:49:36.360 --> 00:49:41.679
pity for a man like that. Yeah, exactly of that

849
00:49:41.760 --> 00:49:42.320
kind of man.

850
00:49:43.679 --> 00:49:46.880
Man who feels a compulsion to confess must have felt

851
00:49:46.920 --> 00:49:51.440
a similar compulsion to kill. There's symptoms of the same disease.

852
00:49:51.599 --> 00:49:56.119
Need there's one thing that law has learned in this century.

853
00:49:56.679 --> 00:50:02.119
It's the ability to feel compassion for the emotionally disturbed.

854
00:50:02.559 --> 00:50:07.159
So he's that, all right, But that doesn't.

855
00:50:06.480 --> 00:50:14.360
This parable of yours you talking about it? Leis right now? Yes,

856
00:50:15.440 --> 00:50:18.039
he told you that he murdered Yost.

857
00:50:18.760 --> 00:50:22.000
He did. I swear it in my office the same

858
00:50:22.079 --> 00:50:24.840
day as the verdict. Oh God, save may have used

859
00:50:24.840 --> 00:50:25.519
your brains.

860
00:50:26.119 --> 00:50:26.880
Can't you see that?

861
00:50:26.960 --> 00:50:29.480
The man's mentally ill. Everything points to it.

862
00:50:30.320 --> 00:50:32.960
He killed a boy just putting an arm around his wife,

863
00:50:33.079 --> 00:50:37.960
he confesses, And there's no need to confess. It's worthwhile

864
00:50:38.360 --> 00:50:42.000
vetting all this anger. He ain't such a man, but

865
00:50:42.119 --> 00:50:43.239
he's dangerous.

866
00:50:43.280 --> 00:50:46.280
He he'll do this again. Shut. If a man just

867
00:50:46.320 --> 00:50:49.159
looks Cross eight at his wife, it'll be another excuse

868
00:50:49.199 --> 00:50:52.199
for murder. If he had confessed this to you before

869
00:50:52.400 --> 00:50:55.320
the trial was only would have demanded that he plead guilty.

870
00:50:55.360 --> 00:50:57.519
He'd be waiting to serve a life sentence right now.

871
00:50:57.679 --> 00:51:05.000
And Ned, you getting something? What I was the judge

872
00:51:05.039 --> 00:51:11.000
at the trial. It was my prerogative past sentence, not yours.

873
00:51:11.599 --> 00:51:14.480
It was first a green murder premeditator, Ned.

874
00:51:15.519 --> 00:51:18.079
If jury it brought me a guilty verdict.

875
00:51:18.599 --> 00:51:23.360
I recommended psychiatric examination with a view to confinement.

876
00:51:22.800 --> 00:51:26.119
At an institution for the criminally insane. But you didn't

877
00:51:26.280 --> 00:51:29.480
know he was I mean even I didn't know he

878
00:51:29.599 --> 00:51:33.199
was crazy. And do you know it now? Do you

879
00:51:33.360 --> 00:51:34.280
feel it now?

880
00:51:35.400 --> 00:51:39.559
Do you recognize that he needs cure more than punishment?

881
00:51:41.199 --> 00:51:47.599
Punishment the law only penalizes the guilty, Ned, isn't that

882
00:51:47.719 --> 00:51:52.079
what we all believe in? We don't penalize the sick.

883
00:51:53.559 --> 00:51:56.000
I have to go, Judge, I have something to do.

884
00:51:56.280 --> 00:51:59.639
It's getting pretty late for running errands, Ned, almost midnight.

885
00:52:00.280 --> 00:52:02.800
This is important, Judge. I have to see someone I

886
00:52:02.840 --> 00:52:20.119
have to tell something very important. Hello, is this Lucier

887
00:52:20.159 --> 00:52:20.800
and dispatching?

888
00:52:21.800 --> 00:52:24.599
My name is Ned Murray. I'm a friend of Tony.

889
00:52:24.679 --> 00:52:29.079
I go No, no, Murray Murray. That's the last name,

890
00:52:29.119 --> 00:52:29.719
not the first.

891
00:52:29.880 --> 00:52:32.960
Look, it's very important that I reached Tony as soon

892
00:52:33.000 --> 00:52:34.960
as possible. Only this is the only number.

893
00:52:34.679 --> 00:52:36.760
He ever gave me to reach him.

894
00:52:36.800 --> 00:52:40.199
But he's got to have a home phone, right, so

895
00:52:40.320 --> 00:52:44.320
help me. It's important. It's a matter of Look, who

896
00:52:44.320 --> 00:52:47.840
am I speaking to, lady? Please, I'm in a phone

897
00:52:47.880 --> 00:52:50.599
booth and it's pouring like hell and I'm getting soaked.

898
00:52:51.119 --> 00:52:53.280
No, no, no, no, no, I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

899
00:52:53.480 --> 00:52:55.199
I didn't mean to talk to you that way.

900
00:52:56.239 --> 00:52:57.400
Yes, I realized that.

901
00:52:57.440 --> 00:53:00.719
But if you could make this one exception, Well, how

902
00:53:00.719 --> 00:53:03.199
do you know he isn't home, for.

903
00:53:03.320 --> 00:53:06.239
God sakes us after midnight? Yes?

904
00:53:06.400 --> 00:53:11.760
Yes, all right, all right, all right. He couldn't have

905
00:53:11.760 --> 00:53:17.880
done it to night. He couldn't have, couldn't, I say.

906
00:53:27.679 --> 00:53:28.760
Lou is that you?

907
00:53:29.800 --> 00:53:33.719
Yeah? It's me? Display Where the heck have you been?

908
00:53:34.719 --> 00:53:36.639
I've been taking care of business?

909
00:53:36.880 --> 00:53:40.280
What business? Since when do you sell shoes in the

910
00:53:40.320 --> 00:53:40.920
middle of the night.

911
00:53:41.000 --> 00:53:43.519
I was taking care of some competition that's what I

912
00:53:43.599 --> 00:53:44.000
was doing.

913
00:53:44.840 --> 00:53:45.920
What are you talking about?

914
00:53:46.119 --> 00:53:47.719
I pretend you don't know, but.

915
00:53:47.760 --> 00:53:48.280
I don't know.

916
00:53:48.840 --> 00:53:50.280
I don't know what you're talking about.

917
00:53:50.360 --> 00:53:52.840
You know something, Melanie, you make a rotten liar.

918
00:53:52.960 --> 00:53:57.039
I'm not lying, for God's sake, Gluin, But he stop

919
00:53:57.079 --> 00:53:58.000
staring at me like that.

920
00:53:58.800 --> 00:54:01.280
I'm looking at you the way man, look at you?

921
00:54:01.360 --> 00:54:02.239
What other men?

922
00:54:02.400 --> 00:54:04.400
One who comes around here every day when I'm not

923
00:54:04.480 --> 00:54:08.159
pounding the pavements, peddling those lousy shoes to those stories.

924
00:54:08.400 --> 00:54:10.360
Nobody comes around.

925
00:54:11.199 --> 00:54:13.480
You're just in one of those crazy jealous moons again.

926
00:54:13.559 --> 00:54:16.400
Bo I got news for you, Pumpkin. There's one boyfriend

927
00:54:16.440 --> 00:54:17.760
who's not coming around anymore.

928
00:54:18.280 --> 00:54:20.599
Are you still talking about that poor dumb grocery boy.

929
00:54:22.119 --> 00:54:24.760
No, I'm talking about the old guy, one with a

930
00:54:24.800 --> 00:54:27.440
white hair, one who's been hanging around here all night,

931
00:54:27.480 --> 00:54:29.239
looking up in our window, waiting to make sure that

932
00:54:29.239 --> 00:54:30.119
the coast is clear.

933
00:54:30.639 --> 00:54:34.239
You're crazy, crazy. I don't know any white haired guy.

934
00:54:34.440 --> 00:54:36.639
You'll never get to know this one because he's got

935
00:54:36.639 --> 00:54:37.719
something wrong with them.

936
00:54:37.760 --> 00:54:40.760
Baby, he's got a carving knife in his stomach.

937
00:54:42.000 --> 00:54:47.320
Oh my god, No, you didn't.

938
00:54:47.320 --> 00:54:50.599
Yes, I did, so you can forget about seeing your

939
00:54:50.679 --> 00:54:53.280
lover boy the night. Baby, you can just forget it.

940
00:54:53.320 --> 00:54:54.840
Don't have to be satisfied with.

941
00:54:55.079 --> 00:55:00.639
Just me, no, just tell me it isn't true. Tell

942
00:55:00.679 --> 00:55:01.960
me you didn't kill anyone.

943
00:55:02.280 --> 00:55:05.320
It wasn't the first time, Pumpkin. If you keep up

944
00:55:05.320 --> 00:55:07.639
the way you're going, it will be the last. In fact,

945
00:55:08.400 --> 00:55:09.800
the next one might be you.

946
00:55:11.679 --> 00:55:16.000
Oh my god, those police cause.

947
00:55:17.360 --> 00:55:29.159
Nick coming here?

948
00:55:29.960 --> 00:55:32.000
Oh hi, and Ned? What are you doing here?

949
00:55:32.239 --> 00:55:34.719
What's going on? What's all the crowd about? Oh?

950
00:55:34.719 --> 00:55:36.440
Wait a minute, you know the victim, don't you?

951
00:55:36.679 --> 00:55:37.400
Is that why you're here?

952
00:55:37.559 --> 00:55:38.559
You get a tip or something?

953
00:55:38.719 --> 00:55:39.039
Victim?

954
00:55:39.559 --> 00:55:40.760
Who Tony?

955
00:55:40.800 --> 00:55:42.599
I go Tony?

956
00:55:42.679 --> 00:55:46.920
Somebody used a knife on it? Oh god, ironic.

957
00:55:46.480 --> 00:55:46.880
Isn't it?

958
00:55:46.920 --> 00:55:49.639
Probably a dozen guys wanted Tony I go knocked off?

959
00:55:49.639 --> 00:55:51.519
And how does he get it from a jealous husband?

960
00:55:51.800 --> 00:55:52.199
Is he dead?

961
00:55:52.519 --> 00:55:55.039
Yeah, he's dead And it was your ex client who

962
00:55:55.079 --> 00:55:55.320
did it?

963
00:55:55.400 --> 00:55:58.280
That guy, right, Dell got Tony hanging around the building,

964
00:55:58.320 --> 00:55:59.960
watching the place, my debt playing.

965
00:56:00.079 --> 00:56:02.199
He was after his wife. You know about this.

966
00:56:02.599 --> 00:56:04.880
It's not true. It's not true, lieutenant.

967
00:56:04.920 --> 00:56:06.960
He didn't even know the woman. Then what was he

968
00:56:07.079 --> 00:56:07.679
doing here?

969
00:56:07.960 --> 00:56:12.159
A favor? He was doing somebody a favor. What are

970
00:56:12.199 --> 00:56:14.519
you talking about? Look? Where's right?

971
00:56:14.559 --> 00:56:14.719
Dell?

972
00:56:14.840 --> 00:56:18.639
Now upstairs? Answering questions. He won't get away, not like

973
00:56:18.679 --> 00:56:21.800
the last time, counselor yes, it won't be like the

974
00:56:21.920 --> 00:56:24.880
last time. Excuse me, Hey, hey, where do you think

975
00:56:24.920 --> 00:56:26.960
you're going? I want to see him. He's entitled to

976
00:56:26.960 --> 00:56:28.840
talk to a lawyer, is and he You must be

977
00:56:28.960 --> 00:56:31.840
nuts yourself. Half a dozen witnesses saw him. Did I

978
00:56:31.920 --> 00:56:33.079
go up? Lieutenant?

979
00:56:33.320 --> 00:56:36.480
You mean you'll defend that screwball again? He's out of

980
00:56:36.519 --> 00:56:39.840
his mind, don't you know that? Yes? I know, and

981
00:56:39.880 --> 00:56:41.239
that's what I'll try to prove.

982
00:56:42.400 --> 00:56:46.559
Now, will you please let me see my client?

983
00:56:52.000 --> 00:56:54.679
And so Ned Murray is about to try for still

984
00:56:54.719 --> 00:56:58.440
another verdict, this time a verdict which will carry a

985
00:56:58.519 --> 00:57:02.760
punishment more of befitting to the crime. And something tells

986
00:57:02.800 --> 00:57:07.039
me that he'll be very successful, not just as an attorney,

987
00:57:07.800 --> 00:57:08.880
but as a human being.

988
00:57:09.960 --> 00:57:10.960
I'll be back shortly.

989
00:57:20.840 --> 00:57:22.719
The time has come for action.

990
00:57:23.000 --> 00:57:25.960
Birth defects are forever unless you have to be born.

991
00:57:26.119 --> 00:57:29.039
A time to March of dimes, fights birthday, time to

992
00:57:29.159 --> 00:57:33.039
heal through medical service programs, scientific research, time to.

993
00:57:33.199 --> 00:57:35.719
Public education, and times that try men.

994
00:57:35.760 --> 00:57:38.719
To protect the bodies and minds of our children today,

995
00:57:38.960 --> 00:57:42.679
ex writes time so little time. I see to it

996
00:57:42.760 --> 00:57:46.320
that every child is born healthy. Now is her time

997
00:57:46.440 --> 00:57:48.719
for all good men to come to the aid of

998
00:57:48.800 --> 00:57:51.400
the March of Dimes and it's drive to prevent birth.

999
00:57:51.480 --> 00:57:52.760
Make time stand still.

1000
00:57:55.679 --> 00:57:56.159
Wake up.

1001
00:57:56.239 --> 00:57:57.840
It's later than you remember.

1002
00:57:58.039 --> 00:58:00.159
Birth defects are forever unless.

1003
00:57:59.880 --> 00:58:01.360
You time has come.

1004
00:58:01.480 --> 00:58:04.599
For the time has come for action. Give to the

1005
00:58:04.719 --> 00:58:05.519
March of Eimes.

1006
00:58:21.199 --> 00:58:24.920
Some time ago, a man named Thomas de Quincy said,

1007
00:58:26.079 --> 00:58:30.760
if once a man indulges himself in murder, very soon

1008
00:58:30.920 --> 00:58:34.480
he comes to think very little of robbing, and from

1009
00:58:34.559 --> 00:58:39.719
robbing he comes next to drinking and sabbath breaking, and

1010
00:58:39.800 --> 00:58:43.599
from that to incivility and procrastination.

1011
00:58:45.119 --> 00:58:46.639
Let that be a lesson to all of you.

1012
00:58:47.639 --> 00:58:50.639
This quotation and this story have come to you through

1013
00:58:50.679 --> 00:58:54.599
the courtesy of our radio mystery theater. Our cast included

1014
00:58:54.639 --> 00:58:59.679
Tony Roberts, Joseph Julian, Brina Raburn, Barbara Caruso, Robert Dryden,

1015
00:59:00.079 --> 00:59:03.599
and Sam Gray. The entire production was under the direction

1016
00:59:03.639 --> 00:59:10.559
of Hyman Brown. And now a preview of our next tale.

1017
00:59:11.440 --> 00:59:14.480
I take it you are referring to miss Elaine Friend.

1018
00:59:14.559 --> 00:59:18.320
Where is she back at her hotel. I had her

1019
00:59:18.440 --> 00:59:23.000
sent back immediately. We did not want to speak to her.

1020
00:59:24.159 --> 00:59:29.679
Just you, okay, you have before, mister Carladanas.

1021
00:59:29.159 --> 00:59:33.159
A collagenus, Monsieur Nache. It is an old name in

1022
00:59:33.199 --> 00:59:38.079
my country, a revered name. I'll do my best to remember. Well,

1023
00:59:38.119 --> 00:59:42.280
continue a question, monsieur. Why are you in France? As

1024
00:59:42.360 --> 00:59:46.239
we say at home, none of your business. I like you, monsieur.

1025
00:59:46.960 --> 00:59:53.119
You are refreshingly candid. You are working for FMB. You

1026
00:59:53.159 --> 00:59:56.480
are a trusted, intelligent worker, well thought of.

1027
00:59:56.639 --> 00:59:58.719
Thanks for the information. When I get back, I'll put

1028
00:59:58.760 --> 00:59:59.679
in for a raise.

1029
01:00:00.239 --> 01:00:06.639
If you get back, monsieur, if you get back. Radio

1030
01:00:06.679 --> 01:00:10.599
Mystery Theater were sponsored in part by Anheuser Busch Incorporated,

1031
01:00:11.159 --> 01:00:12.280
brewers of Budweiser.

1032
01:00:13.280 --> 01:00:13.760
This is E. G.

1033
01:00:13.960 --> 01:00:17.280
Marshall inviting you to return to our Mystery Theater for

1034
01:00:17.360 --> 01:00:25.039
another adventure in the macabre. Until next time, pleasant dream.

1035
01:00:54.320 --> 01:01:07.480
A lot of weekn't remember after news, weather and sports.

1036
01:01:08.159 --> 01:01:11.199
This is WDAF, Kansas City, Missouri.

1037
01:01:12.960 --> 01:01:18.039
Well after something so chilling. A record certainly helps me

1038
01:01:18.119 --> 01:01:21.880
feel a little bit better. Well, my dear, my dear,

1039
01:01:22.440 --> 01:01:26.840
it is getting late, and yes, I know about the

1040
01:01:26.960 --> 01:01:30.239
impending holidays. I hope you'll find a little time time

1041
01:01:30.599 --> 01:01:34.519
to visit ol Me, my dear, but I understand it's

1042
01:01:34.559 --> 01:01:38.159
a busy time. I don't hold it against yours.

1043
01:01:38.280 --> 01:01:40.280
And I hope you don't feel bad about it at all.

1044
01:01:41.519 --> 01:01:45.760
Just know that I'm here always with a smile, a

1045
01:01:45.840 --> 01:01:50.480
hot cup of tea, and something a little scarce for

1046
01:01:50.559 --> 01:01:56.239
us both to enjoy. But now, please, as you prepare

1047
01:01:56.280 --> 01:01:59.360
to go home, as you prepare to go to your

1048
01:01:59.400 --> 01:02:03.880
warm band, as you lay your head on that down pillow,

1049
01:02:04.960 --> 01:02:09.079
just please take a moment and be thankful, thankful for

1050
01:02:09.119 --> 01:02:33.400
what you have until next time.
