1
00:00:11.439 --> 00:00:17.199
My dear, So good to see you again. Oh what's that. Well.

2
00:00:18.079 --> 00:00:22.079
I have been trying to spruce the place up a bit,

3
00:00:22.440 --> 00:00:27.879
try to keep it a little neat and tidy. I

4
00:00:27.920 --> 00:00:34.000
don't want to get complacent, you know, but please please relax.

5
00:00:34.880 --> 00:00:40.560
Sit down. The fire is going hot. I know it

6
00:00:40.640 --> 00:00:46.280
may be the summer months, but it still gets chilly

7
00:00:47.159 --> 00:00:52.240
at night. The tea should be done any moment, and

8
00:00:52.320 --> 00:00:56.719
I'll bring you a hot cup to enjoy. I myself

9
00:00:57.399 --> 00:01:03.159
have been feeling rather warm. I hope it's not another

10
00:01:03.320 --> 00:01:05.799
case of sea fever.

11
00:01:25.159 --> 00:01:30.879
Come in. Welcome, I'm e. G.

12
00:01:31.120 --> 00:01:31.560
Marshall.

13
00:01:32.599 --> 00:01:36.920
Welcome to the sound of suspense. Welcome to the fear

14
00:01:37.519 --> 00:01:42.599
you can hear. Even before Phoenicians first sailed out of

15
00:01:42.640 --> 00:01:46.239
the Mediterranean and opened up the Seven Seas to mankind,

16
00:01:47.000 --> 00:01:47.920
the rolling.

17
00:01:47.640 --> 00:01:49.840
Waters of the world have boiled.

18
00:01:49.439 --> 00:01:53.120
From their depths some of the greatest stories of adventure,

19
00:01:53.439 --> 00:01:58.000
romance and mystery. And of all the stories dredged up

20
00:01:58.000 --> 00:02:02.640
from old Davy Jones Locker, I think my favorite is

21
00:02:02.680 --> 00:02:06.319
the strange and seemingly insoluble puzzle.

22
00:02:06.519 --> 00:02:09.280
Of what happened to the Annabella?

23
00:02:09.439 --> 00:02:11.479
How best to start the story?

24
00:02:13.159 --> 00:02:13.319
Oh?

25
00:02:13.759 --> 00:02:15.280
Yes, of course, why not?

26
00:02:16.000 --> 00:02:18.919
Let's read from the log of the ship that found

27
00:02:18.919 --> 00:02:26.360
the Annabella, the Calmed and the Doldrums. August seventh, eighteen

28
00:02:26.639 --> 00:02:32.000
sixty five. Log of the Penguin. The Captain Brisket, commanding

29
00:02:33.520 --> 00:02:37.439
no wind again this day, as we drive through the dolrooms,

30
00:02:38.360 --> 00:02:42.039
moving by paddle and steam to find the Calmed, a

31
00:02:42.159 --> 00:02:48.759
merchantman named Annabella. No answer to repeated hales, sent mister

32
00:02:48.840 --> 00:02:50.039
Bascombe to bard her.

33
00:02:51.039 --> 00:02:52.360
His report as followed.

34
00:02:53.599 --> 00:02:57.960
Not a living soul aboard, the boats still snug in

35
00:02:58.000 --> 00:03:03.479
the Davis, the captain's table freshly set for six, the

36
00:03:03.680 --> 00:03:09.280
cruise meal warm in the galley, all ship shape. The

37
00:03:09.400 --> 00:03:13.400
log records an uneventful voyage with no clue as to

38
00:03:13.479 --> 00:03:18.360
why she should have been deserted. Not a living soul aboard,

39
00:03:19.039 --> 00:03:22.800
not even a rat. What can be the answer to

40
00:03:22.840 --> 00:03:26.599
the mystery of this ill feated ship? I cannot even guess.

41
00:03:27.919 --> 00:03:40.000
I fear no one will ever know. And our mystery

42
00:03:40.039 --> 00:03:44.360
drama See Fever, was written especially for the mystery theater

43
00:03:44.479 --> 00:03:49.120
by Ian Martin and stars George Matthews and Brett Morrison.

44
00:03:49.800 --> 00:03:51.319
It is sponsored in part by.

45
00:03:51.199 --> 00:03:55.599
The Kellogg Company, makers of Kellogg's special k cereal, and

46
00:03:55.599 --> 00:03:59.000
by Anheuser Busch Incorporated Brewers of Budweiser.

47
00:03:59.560 --> 00:04:11.560
I'll be shortly with that one.

48
00:04:12.919 --> 00:04:16.839
The Annabella set sail from Charlestown Harbor on the thirteenth

49
00:04:16.959 --> 00:04:22.639
day of July eighteen sixty five. Her captain was Josiah Adams,

50
00:04:23.319 --> 00:04:27.319
a huge and forbidding giant of a man, and all

51
00:04:27.360 --> 00:04:30.279
the rest on board were his choice of crew of cutthroats,

52
00:04:30.319 --> 00:04:34.279
steves and murderers as you could set between bulkheads. There

53
00:04:34.279 --> 00:04:38.680
was one woman aboard and nineteen men, including the cook

54
00:04:38.800 --> 00:04:42.079
and two passengers, and the mood of all of them

55
00:04:42.199 --> 00:04:47.040
was ugly. In the forecastle, the booses led the rumbling.

56
00:04:49.120 --> 00:04:50.040
I tell you breaks.

57
00:04:50.079 --> 00:04:53.399
I saw him, Six of them running down the afterhors

58
00:04:53.399 --> 00:04:54.920
are like old Nick was after him.

59
00:04:54.959 --> 00:04:55.879
Six of them breaks.

60
00:04:55.920 --> 00:04:58.639
I don't like it when the rats leadership.

61
00:04:58.639 --> 00:05:01.560
It's a nasty sign. I don't like much about this ship.

62
00:05:02.079 --> 00:05:05.399
Seven men on the cruise SHANGHI, no cargo aboard and sailing.

63
00:05:05.120 --> 00:05:07.480
On the thirteenth steal. The bay is good when we

64
00:05:07.560 --> 00:05:07.959
get it.

65
00:05:08.319 --> 00:05:10.800
If we get it now, you don't think we're the

66
00:05:10.800 --> 00:05:11.680
owner of wall.

67
00:05:11.920 --> 00:05:14.040
No, no, mister Ames. It worries me.

68
00:05:14.759 --> 00:05:18.480
It's Captain Josiah Adams, not much giving their turn, but

69
00:05:18.519 --> 00:05:21.759
he does. I'm big, but he'd make twice of me,

70
00:05:22.519 --> 00:05:24.079
more like an ape than a man.

71
00:05:24.480 --> 00:05:28.360
Strong as one anyway, yea or lack a bull, as

72
00:05:28.399 --> 00:05:31.399
you might say, if the liquor has a lot of

73
00:05:31.399 --> 00:05:35.720
his vitals, he's got a scowl on him like that colic.

74
00:05:35.519 --> 00:05:40.199
Was at him. A colic. There's no colic that's eaten him.

75
00:05:40.439 --> 00:05:41.959
Has ever seen him without his cap?

76
00:05:42.439 --> 00:05:42.639
Hugh?

77
00:05:43.160 --> 00:05:45.560
How often does the folks shall hands see a cap

78
00:05:45.800 --> 00:05:48.279
bare headed? What do you mean?

79
00:05:48.920 --> 00:05:51.519
That's when I piped mister Ames aboard. I went to

80
00:05:51.560 --> 00:05:53.319
his capin to tell him the owner was on ship.

81
00:05:53.680 --> 00:05:55.759
He opened the door and I saw him his head

82
00:05:56.120 --> 00:05:58.439
ball there is a white turnup, and his scalp is

83
00:05:58.560 --> 00:06:00.759
chewed up as the rip tide or off shatam light.

84
00:06:01.439 --> 00:06:02.199
I don't get you.

85
00:06:03.160 --> 00:06:05.879
They say he lost his last ship in Hudson Bay.

86
00:06:06.720 --> 00:06:08.639
He was washed ashore and found his way back to

87
00:06:08.639 --> 00:06:11.279
the state's overland. The Indians caught him.

88
00:06:11.279 --> 00:06:19.800
And you mean he scalped him and he lived, you see, so.

89
00:06:19.879 --> 00:06:26.079
That explains his stall face. He mightn't be a bad master, Dan.

90
00:06:26.319 --> 00:06:27.519
I wouldn't count on it.

91
00:06:28.199 --> 00:06:30.480
I think his heart is as black as his skull.

92
00:06:30.600 --> 00:06:31.120
Is white.

93
00:06:32.439 --> 00:06:35.480
Don't forget the racks, they're full of bells.

94
00:06:35.560 --> 00:06:36.519
You're tricking the wheel.

95
00:06:36.959 --> 00:06:38.639
Dot's not keep mister Peabody waiting.

96
00:06:39.360 --> 00:06:41.680
Come on, what more do you know?

97
00:06:42.399 --> 00:06:46.519
Watch ask the captain himself. I think you're full of wind.

98
00:06:47.279 --> 00:06:49.519
I'd best get to the hell you're afraid to ask

99
00:06:49.560 --> 00:06:52.639
the captain brags? Watch ask the mate just this way,

100
00:06:52.839 --> 00:06:54.600
Tell me, mister Peabody.

101
00:06:54.240 --> 00:06:55.879
Where are we sailing with no cargo?

102
00:06:56.160 --> 00:06:57.279
Why did we have to shedding?

103
00:06:57.319 --> 00:07:03.639
High? Half a crew? Arlie or bills? Sound isn't gone?

104
00:07:04.560 --> 00:07:06.079
Stand to the wheel and as sir.

105
00:07:06.120 --> 00:07:14.800
Mister breebody, mister Peabody said, okay, he's like I. I

106
00:07:14.839 --> 00:07:19.160
was wondering to myself as it might be where we headed.

107
00:07:18.879 --> 00:07:22.199
For, saying Africa the gold.

108
00:07:22.600 --> 00:07:23.160
I knew it.

109
00:07:23.319 --> 00:07:24.360
I knew it in my bones.

110
00:07:24.480 --> 00:07:24.879
I knew it.

111
00:07:24.959 --> 00:07:27.120
Why did you ask? It's blackburden.

112
00:07:27.560 --> 00:07:28.399
That's what it is.

113
00:07:28.759 --> 00:07:33.439
Slave trading, the slave traders. Did I believe Briggs.

114
00:07:32.920 --> 00:07:38.120
In America legally, but not in Brazil. They still paid

115
00:07:38.160 --> 00:07:42.600
fancy passes in Brazil. That's what it is. I'm not alone.

116
00:07:42.639 --> 00:07:46.560
And if it is what you object me, one of

117
00:07:46.639 --> 00:07:50.279
the pay is high enough for one question, sir, any

118
00:07:50.319 --> 00:07:52.040
further questions.

119
00:07:51.560 --> 00:07:53.680
Or answers you will have to get from the captain,

120
00:07:54.480 --> 00:07:58.759
mister Ames or his fellow passenger, mister.

121
00:07:58.600 --> 00:08:04.560
Rogers, after you've stood your watch. They're in the cabin

122
00:08:04.680 --> 00:08:05.959
if you have a care to risk it.

123
00:08:06.399 --> 00:08:15.480
Ah, So it's blackbirding. He just what Christophson guessed.

124
00:08:22.920 --> 00:08:29.240
Whine Rogers savy from Spain, sharpens the appetite before dinner.

125
00:08:29.519 --> 00:08:30.839
Something we'll have to wet mine.

126
00:08:31.199 --> 00:08:35.919
This miserable tub rolls like a horse in mud. You

127
00:08:36.080 --> 00:08:37.840
soon get your sea legs.

128
00:08:37.639 --> 00:08:39.759
A small need of them. I'll have where I'm going.

129
00:08:40.120 --> 00:08:44.000
You'll need them to get there. So the Gold Coast,

130
00:08:44.480 --> 00:08:45.720
mister Rugs.

131
00:08:46.600 --> 00:08:50.279
The Gold coast, heat and dust and flies and traffic

132
00:08:50.320 --> 00:08:54.519
in human bodies. Slave Fred of Rogers, a fine job

133
00:08:54.679 --> 00:08:58.200
or a fine gentleman? Would you prefer a prison cell

134
00:08:58.720 --> 00:09:02.320
is dead? I stole from you and was caught. Let

135
00:09:02.320 --> 00:09:04.519
me choose whether to rot in jail, in poverty, or

136
00:09:04.519 --> 00:09:05.720
in African and luxury.

137
00:09:06.240 --> 00:09:07.159
I chose the second.

138
00:09:07.480 --> 00:09:09.399
Now, in Heaven's name, let's forget the first.

139
00:09:09.960 --> 00:09:16.159
Gladly, more wine as much as you desire, there's no

140
00:09:16.279 --> 00:09:19.120
lack of it, more than enough.

141
00:09:18.919 --> 00:09:19.639
For the voyage.

142
00:09:20.080 --> 00:09:21.440
If the captain doesn't drink it.

143
00:09:22.519 --> 00:09:26.039
Captain Adams prefers a last year brow. He must be

144
00:09:26.080 --> 00:09:29.480
the biggest man I've ever seen, and that here.

145
00:09:30.559 --> 00:09:34.039
I wouldn't refer to it in front of him. He's

146
00:09:34.120 --> 00:09:35.519
tender about that scalp.

147
00:09:36.399 --> 00:09:39.960
I wouldn't blame him, however, survived a tribute to his

148
00:09:40.080 --> 00:09:41.440
magnificent constitution.

149
00:09:42.879 --> 00:09:49.080
The man is all steel, not all well, No, he

150
00:09:49.159 --> 00:09:51.039
has at least one soft spot.

151
00:09:52.039 --> 00:09:54.440
M oh, who is who?

152
00:09:55.320 --> 00:09:55.600
You mean?

153
00:09:55.639 --> 00:09:56.120
His wife?

154
00:09:56.240 --> 00:09:56.440
Well?

155
00:09:56.559 --> 00:09:58.799
You know the old legend is that it's bad luck

156
00:09:58.840 --> 00:09:59.720
to have a woman.

157
00:09:59.440 --> 00:10:05.720
Aboard a woman a book? Are you trying to tell

158
00:10:05.720 --> 00:10:10.320
me that Mistress Adams is a boarder's shift? Of course,

159
00:10:11.120 --> 00:10:14.200
I thought you knew this is no place for a woman.

160
00:10:15.559 --> 00:10:18.000
Ten it, Rogers, I won't have it. The woman must

161
00:10:18.039 --> 00:10:18.639
be put ashore.

162
00:10:19.639 --> 00:10:21.320
I want to talk to the captain immediately.

163
00:10:21.320 --> 00:10:23.600
If you want the captain, you'll find him on the bridge.

164
00:10:24.480 --> 00:10:27.840
How do you know, ah, my reputation as a lady's man,

165
00:10:27.879 --> 00:10:30.960
mister Ames, Remember I make it a point to determine

166
00:10:31.000 --> 00:10:34.120
first when the lady is available.

167
00:10:34.440 --> 00:10:38.840
You bet her bit joking, Rogers, I wouldn't give that

168
00:10:39.200 --> 00:10:39.840
for your life.

169
00:10:39.879 --> 00:10:49.080
If Captain Adams discovered your trying with his wife when

170
00:10:49.240 --> 00:10:54.200
sprasher in Captain's that's God's worry in mind, seeming not yours.

171
00:10:54.600 --> 00:10:58.039
Hold it to the point, a said Captain Adams.

172
00:10:58.200 --> 00:10:58.720
Where is it?

173
00:10:58.840 --> 00:11:04.679
Mister Eames? Would you no watch? You hurt me? And

174
00:11:04.799 --> 00:11:08.399
get off my bridge? No one sets foot behind the

175
00:11:08.440 --> 00:11:12.519
wheel except that my orders are invitation, Dennis, I take

176
00:11:12.559 --> 00:11:15.039
on bridge at your or you take what you will.

177
00:11:15.399 --> 00:11:18.759
My only concern when I'm on this bridge is the

178
00:11:18.799 --> 00:11:22.600
sailing of this ship. Now will you take yourself off it?

179
00:11:23.080 --> 00:11:25.600
I'll meet you aft to the watch six bells in

180
00:11:25.679 --> 00:11:27.840
the saloon and you can have your word with me.

181
00:11:28.000 --> 00:11:30.679
You're free. That's not good in a cat you forget

182
00:11:30.759 --> 00:11:33.320
hurd you enough or not? It will have to serve.

183
00:11:33.799 --> 00:11:36.399
Now will you go below? Or do I have to

184
00:11:36.519 --> 00:11:45.440
throw you off bodily? At what time is tinkle?

185
00:11:46.080 --> 00:11:49.320
Happa has six bells for you and mister Rogers And

186
00:11:49.399 --> 00:11:51.840
the rage here is lady later?

187
00:11:52.399 --> 00:11:56.639
Well, they don't join us, really the one.

188
00:11:56.720 --> 00:12:00.639
They'll say, curious or and curious why this lady's so

189
00:12:00.720 --> 00:12:01.840
afraid for us to meet her.

190
00:12:02.000 --> 00:12:03.320
I couldn't tell us.

191
00:12:03.799 --> 00:12:06.000
She won't be with us long enough to trouble about me.

192
00:12:06.279 --> 00:12:10.120
Still is intriguing Wydy you shipped with the captain before?

193
00:12:10.240 --> 00:12:13.399
Is it always like this when his wife is aboard?

194
00:12:14.039 --> 00:12:17.360
Mistress Annabella has never chiled with the.

195
00:12:17.480 --> 00:12:21.360
Captain, ah till this time, And this time will be

196
00:12:21.399 --> 00:12:22.159
a short voice.

197
00:12:22.200 --> 00:12:28.360
Tell anybody what does the lady look like? Is she fair? Dark? Fighting?

198
00:12:29.919 --> 00:12:32.519
You talk too much? This is the last time I

199
00:12:32.600 --> 00:12:34.399
warn you now.

200
00:12:34.440 --> 00:12:36.840
Us are those old bones of yours in the galley,

201
00:12:36.919 --> 00:12:38.320
and tend to your own affairs.

202
00:12:38.519 --> 00:12:38.960
Ah.

203
00:12:42.320 --> 00:12:44.440
You want to know what my wife looks.

204
00:12:44.240 --> 00:12:45.399
Like, mister Rogers.

205
00:12:45.480 --> 00:12:50.320
So a natural curiosity, surely, and let me satisfy it

206
00:12:51.200 --> 00:12:52.279
once and for all.

207
00:12:52.399 --> 00:12:55.240
Annabella is as lovely as I am ugly.

208
00:12:55.639 --> 00:12:56.440
Ah.

209
00:12:56.600 --> 00:13:00.759
And we are not to meet the lady none alone

210
00:13:00.919 --> 00:13:03.320
tonight and always.

211
00:13:04.159 --> 00:13:08.240
One further word to you, mister Rogers. My wife is

212
00:13:08.320 --> 00:13:12.120
on board this voyage because I've decided that I will

213
00:13:12.159 --> 00:13:15.519
never go anywhere without her, nor will she go anywhere

214
00:13:15.559 --> 00:13:20.360
without me. We cling to ourselves, mister Rogers, and need

215
00:13:20.399 --> 00:13:25.600
no other companionship. I want you to understand this very clearly.

216
00:13:25.840 --> 00:13:29.440
You have no fears for your wife's prevacy. By tomorrow

217
00:13:29.559 --> 00:13:32.120
I want her off the ship. What I'm ordering you

218
00:13:32.200 --> 00:13:35.000
to turn about you could have saved time and trouble

219
00:13:35.039 --> 00:13:37.279
that you. Let me tell you earlier on the bridge.

220
00:13:37.240 --> 00:13:40.799
It turn about for where to port. I don't want

221
00:13:40.840 --> 00:13:41.799
your wife on board.

222
00:13:43.320 --> 00:13:46.679
This voyage has begun, The course is set in. It

223
00:13:46.720 --> 00:13:48.240
will not be changed.

224
00:13:48.240 --> 00:13:51.440
May I remind you captain that this is my ship.

225
00:13:51.559 --> 00:13:55.600
This is my ship, mister Eames, my ship.

226
00:13:55.720 --> 00:14:00.360
From port to port. Your ship in the harbor, lying

227
00:14:00.480 --> 00:14:02.360
on the sea, my ship.

228
00:14:03.120 --> 00:14:03.320
Here.

229
00:14:03.399 --> 00:14:06.960
I give the orders. Here I expect to be obeyed

230
00:14:07.000 --> 00:14:07.600
in the name.

231
00:14:07.480 --> 00:14:09.879
Of all that's reasonable man in a few of our business.

232
00:14:09.960 --> 00:14:12.000
Can't you see this is no place for a woman.

233
00:14:12.080 --> 00:14:16.039
There's only one place for Annabella. My wife remains at

234
00:14:16.120 --> 00:14:19.720
my side on a slave ship, by my side. You

235
00:14:19.919 --> 00:14:24.559
here by my side. I will hear no more of

236
00:14:24.559 --> 00:14:28.679
this by the living God, owner or not, I'll clap

237
00:14:28.759 --> 00:14:29.440
you an iron.

238
00:14:29.759 --> 00:14:38.559
So began the voyage of the Annabella. Distrust and fear below,

239
00:14:38.639 --> 00:14:43.080
and tween decks with bad luck in the shrouds, like

240
00:14:43.120 --> 00:14:47.879
a storm gathering. Her bow cut the water with good speed,

241
00:14:48.840 --> 00:14:51.919
But it was towards the wake the cruise eyes turned.

242
00:14:52.799 --> 00:14:56.799
Where the legend is that Davy Jones swims the wake

243
00:14:57.039 --> 00:15:00.519
if any vessel marked for his locker. Bottom of the

244
00:15:00.519 --> 00:15:15.759
sea our return shortly we act too. For the first week,

245
00:15:16.000 --> 00:15:21.039
the Annabella sailed southeast by south, beating down towards the tropics.

246
00:15:21.879 --> 00:15:26.159
The crew still grumbled, and Rogers strove to drown the

247
00:15:26.200 --> 00:15:29.559
irresistible temptation to try and catch a glimpse of the

248
00:15:29.639 --> 00:15:36.200
captain's wife by drinking steadily. Two things served to deter him,

249
00:15:36.440 --> 00:15:40.080
the captain's wary vigilance and his fear of the sheer

250
00:15:40.120 --> 00:15:43.559
brewed strength of the man. But once the ship veered

251
00:15:43.639 --> 00:15:47.200
due east and the mounting seas demanded more and more

252
00:15:47.279 --> 00:15:52.080
of the captain's time on deck, Roger's courage and desire

253
00:15:52.559 --> 00:15:53.360
began to grow.

254
00:16:00.919 --> 00:16:02.399
Well, it's time to turn in.

255
00:16:02.720 --> 00:16:05.879
Really, what time is that, eight bolls?

256
00:16:06.679 --> 00:16:08.960
I'd take a turn on deck if the sun wasn't down.

257
00:16:10.240 --> 00:16:14.679
Step yeah for my bunk in the book and you

258
00:16:15.159 --> 00:16:15.519
are the.

259
00:16:15.480 --> 00:16:17.960
Only book I care to open is the closed one

260
00:16:17.960 --> 00:16:20.799
that lies astern of us. Oh, if you're wise, you'll

261
00:16:20.840 --> 00:16:24.559
steer clear of both the captain and his wife. And

262
00:16:24.759 --> 00:16:28.200
that Spanish sherriot gets stronger.

263
00:16:27.679 --> 00:16:31.799
Than next season, would not rushers the night, mister Eames.

264
00:16:33.840 --> 00:16:36.720
Oh good if the captain off of the bridge, Yeah,

265
00:16:36.720 --> 00:16:38.480
it's making up some dirty weather.

266
00:16:38.559 --> 00:16:43.080
Out. I won't sleep much this night. But now tight,

267
00:16:43.200 --> 00:16:50.360
mister Emes, we may be taking some seas you now

268
00:16:50.399 --> 00:16:54.360
forbid rudgers. So, Captain, I'm not quite finished the bottle.

269
00:16:54.679 --> 00:16:56.879
I'd take it with me to my bunk if I

270
00:16:56.919 --> 00:17:00.360
were you. It'll be safer on your back when the

271
00:17:00.480 --> 00:17:01.879
swells begin to lift.

272
00:17:02.159 --> 00:17:05.799
I I, captain, but don't bring us through safe and sound,

273
00:17:05.920 --> 00:17:06.319
won't you.

274
00:17:06.680 --> 00:17:10.200
I won't leave the bridge till I know all secure.

275
00:17:11.599 --> 00:17:20.680
I want you to sleep sound this night. Rogers, Oh, man's.

276
00:17:20.440 --> 00:17:25.839
The wheel, mister b buddy pass sounder hand with her and.

277
00:17:26.000 --> 00:17:29.759
The second mate. Man's the bridge is good enough? Follow me,

278
00:17:29.839 --> 00:17:36.880
act like yeah, help me to move this hatch? Hur

279
00:17:37.200 --> 00:17:37.759
well enough.

280
00:17:38.640 --> 00:17:45.359
A'm batting down tight when I've dropped through, make sure she's.

281
00:17:45.240 --> 00:17:48.000
Bought tight, hi ion mm hm.

282
00:17:50.480 --> 00:18:04.160
H oh, sire, I thought you were going to the bridge.

283
00:18:04.279 --> 00:18:09.039
I intended you to think so, Annabella disappointed to find

284
00:18:09.079 --> 00:18:10.160
me back so soon?

285
00:18:10.880 --> 00:18:14.799
Disappointment? No, but how did you come.

286
00:18:14.599 --> 00:18:16.440
Back through the stern hatch?

287
00:18:16.720 --> 00:18:17.279
But why?

288
00:18:17.799 --> 00:18:21.839
I had my reasons? You're sure you're not disappointed that

289
00:18:22.000 --> 00:18:26.680
I returned? No, dear, you don't find it lonely shut

290
00:18:26.680 --> 00:18:28.559
in here in the cabin.

291
00:18:29.160 --> 00:18:33.240
Sometimes I'd like to go on deck and feel the

292
00:18:33.279 --> 00:18:35.599
fresh salt breathe on my face.

293
00:18:35.319 --> 00:18:38.720
And meet the cruel, the passengers.

294
00:18:37.960 --> 00:18:43.559
Perhaps perhaps at least the passengers, the owner of the ship.

295
00:18:43.599 --> 00:18:46.240
And mister Rogers, isn't it.

296
00:18:46.240 --> 00:18:48.440
You know his name?

297
00:18:48.640 --> 00:18:51.319
Rogers? You said it just now? How did you know

298
00:18:51.400 --> 00:18:51.839
his name?

299
00:18:53.359 --> 00:18:55.920
You've mentioned it to me yourself, to sire? How else

300
00:18:55.920 --> 00:18:56.440
would I know?

301
00:18:57.319 --> 00:19:02.440
And and you love me, don't you, of course, Josiah.

302
00:19:02.559 --> 00:19:04.799
And you'll never leave me, never.

303
00:19:05.279 --> 00:19:11.400
Oh, forgive me, please, my dearest, you mustn't mind my jealousy.

304
00:19:12.519 --> 00:19:12.960
Rogers.

305
00:19:13.119 --> 00:19:17.160
I see that look in his eyes, a hunger, a

306
00:19:17.440 --> 00:19:21.240
burning hunger for the sight of a woman and the

307
00:19:21.359 --> 00:19:23.640
feel of her body beneath his hands.

308
00:19:24.599 --> 00:19:29.559
Annabella, you knew his name? If you've been deceiving.

309
00:19:29.079 --> 00:19:32.519
You, never even seeing the man, how can you accuse

310
00:19:32.559 --> 00:19:35.720
me of ever forgetting? I'm your wife.

311
00:19:36.400 --> 00:19:41.000
With someone's coming to the cabin. Who is it?

312
00:19:41.559 --> 00:19:43.519
I don't know who is it?

313
00:19:43.720 --> 00:19:47.160
Just Siah, what's in your mind? Whoever it is?

314
00:19:47.240 --> 00:19:48.160
I swear.

315
00:19:50.119 --> 00:19:56.960
Cabin you do as I say, very well, Josiah.

316
00:19:57.119 --> 00:20:00.200
Mister Adam, are you alone?

317
00:20:00.559 --> 00:20:00.880
Come?

318
00:20:00.880 --> 00:20:01.839
Come? I know you are.

319
00:20:03.039 --> 00:20:05.240
I saw the captain off the bridge for the night.

320
00:20:06.519 --> 00:20:11.319
Would you allow me to introduce myself Thomas Rogers, gentlemen

321
00:20:12.200 --> 00:20:16.400
at your service? Can I persuade you to share tonight's

322
00:20:16.480 --> 00:20:20.880
vigil and join me in a glass of sherry?

323
00:20:21.000 --> 00:20:21.440
Oh?

324
00:20:21.440 --> 00:20:24.519
How kind of you? The sight of a pretty face?

325
00:20:25.319 --> 00:20:30.599
Pretty face, Rogers, Captain Hackam, mine was not the face

326
00:20:30.680 --> 00:20:31.920
you expected to see.

327
00:20:32.319 --> 00:20:32.519
See.

328
00:20:32.519 --> 00:20:34.839
I thought you'd gone to the bridge, So you did.

329
00:20:34.960 --> 00:20:35.799
Won't you come in?

330
00:20:35.880 --> 00:20:36.079
Well?

331
00:20:36.119 --> 00:20:41.880
I think did come in? You wanted to meet my wife?

332
00:20:42.039 --> 00:20:43.000
Didn't? Yes?

333
00:20:43.119 --> 00:20:46.359
I must not with me present? Right me?

334
00:20:46.440 --> 00:20:46.759
Captain?

335
00:20:46.839 --> 00:20:52.640
You you do misunderstand Rogers. The misunderstanding is all yours.

336
00:20:53.319 --> 00:20:57.799
Your first sea voyage you said you should have said

337
00:20:57.960 --> 00:21:06.680
your Oh god, why will you hear me? Mine? And

338
00:21:06.960 --> 00:21:08.640
no one shall touch her but me?

339
00:21:09.680 --> 00:21:16.079
No one will take her from me, no one.

340
00:21:18.279 --> 00:21:18.920
What happened?

341
00:21:18.960 --> 00:21:20.599
I heard him? Ah?

342
00:21:21.720 --> 00:21:23.759
Wow, you chill him.

343
00:21:24.000 --> 00:21:27.880
He should have snapped his neck like a chicken. I

344
00:21:28.000 --> 00:21:29.720
wanted him to supper.

345
00:21:32.279 --> 00:21:32.559
To me.

346
00:21:32.880 --> 00:21:34.559
No one shall have you with me?

347
00:21:35.359 --> 00:21:37.240
Shy? Aren't you afraid?

348
00:21:37.279 --> 00:21:42.160
You're afraid the crew, everybody on board, when they find out.

349
00:21:42.000 --> 00:21:45.640
I'll find out no one knows he's here. He'd make

350
00:21:45.839 --> 00:21:48.680
very sure of that. His body will go out of

351
00:21:48.759 --> 00:21:52.519
the stern window and into the sea. Men are falling

352
00:21:52.599 --> 00:21:56.359
overboard on a rough night like this, especially drunken men.

353
00:21:57.480 --> 00:21:59.440
No one will know what happened to him.

354
00:21:59.480 --> 00:22:00.559
Make sure you and me.

355
00:22:04.160 --> 00:22:10.759
M h trimmer a little Briggs. You're losing wind. Bring

356
00:22:10.759 --> 00:22:14.160
your nose up, man, God watch you for a clumsy

357
00:22:14.480 --> 00:22:17.440
boom here. Let me have the wheels.

358
00:22:18.480 --> 00:22:20.400
Have your eyes. You've lost way.

359
00:22:20.279 --> 00:22:23.240
On her, sorry, captain, the wind just neared a couple

360
00:22:23.240 --> 00:22:23.799
of points.

361
00:22:24.160 --> 00:22:26.240
Sailor should smell a wind chain.

362
00:22:26.640 --> 00:22:27.319
Yet what I had?

363
00:22:27.359 --> 00:22:28.680
All of your excuses?

364
00:22:29.680 --> 00:22:31.279
You think you can hold her on this.

365
00:22:31.400 --> 00:22:33.559
Tech and just trially captain sir?

366
00:22:34.039 --> 00:22:38.319
Yeah, then, but keep her running off backs? Get mister rain,

367
00:22:38.680 --> 00:22:39.960
how the word you below?

368
00:22:40.079 --> 00:22:43.000
I can't leave the bridge. Have had your position to

369
00:22:43.119 --> 00:22:51.519
join your own if you insist searching, Sir, I thought

370
00:22:51.559 --> 00:22:54.559
you were below you and my Kevin. I knocked at

371
00:22:54.559 --> 00:22:55.039
the door.

372
00:22:55.079 --> 00:22:58.119
There was now once for you inside, of course not.

373
00:22:58.839 --> 00:23:01.279
It's not my custom to leave the private shows.

374
00:23:02.160 --> 00:23:03.599
My wife was resting eyes.

375
00:23:04.599 --> 00:23:07.279
I didn't want to disturb. What is it you want?

376
00:23:07.720 --> 00:23:09.240
Can we get out of discrossed?

377
00:23:09.359 --> 00:23:09.519
Win?

378
00:23:10.039 --> 00:23:13.079
And you don't want to leave the wheel. This fool

379
00:23:13.279 --> 00:23:16.160
handles it like a landlover. You can trust me, can

380
00:23:17.000 --> 00:23:22.079
I wonder? Come I have the tatrail strange be the

381
00:23:22.119 --> 00:23:25.359
way country. Over here on the lease side, you'll find

382
00:23:25.359 --> 00:23:27.440
the breeze a little mortial liking.

383
00:23:30.000 --> 00:23:35.279
You know, I've been concern since mister rogers mysterious disappearance

384
00:23:35.359 --> 00:23:40.599
last night. It'sterious A drunken sat never found his sea legs.

385
00:23:41.200 --> 00:23:44.079
I warned him. This deck, clear of the deck. We

386
00:23:44.160 --> 00:23:46.480
did every mortal thing we could to find this.

387
00:23:46.759 --> 00:23:50.319
I know, I know, But without him now to leave

388
00:23:50.359 --> 00:23:51.960
as my agent on the Gold.

389
00:23:51.720 --> 00:23:55.519
Coast, I go on, Well, it's.

390
00:23:55.440 --> 00:23:59.319
Juice it awkwards without someone to recruit the next match

391
00:23:59.359 --> 00:24:01.160
after we leave, there's a little point.

392
00:24:00.920 --> 00:24:04.960
In continuing on. So do you think we should put

393
00:24:05.039 --> 00:24:06.799
back for America.

394
00:24:07.599 --> 00:24:10.920
Or the nearest port where I can pick up a

395
00:24:10.960 --> 00:24:17.640
suitable man for replacements, and perhaps put my wife for sure? Well,

396
00:24:17.680 --> 00:24:22.279
since you mentioned it, I don't trust women too much

397
00:24:22.319 --> 00:24:27.079
in a business like this. They talk too much.

398
00:24:27.279 --> 00:24:30.319
Just strap her at whatever port we touch.

399
00:24:31.039 --> 00:24:34.680
I should be glad to make sure she is suitably settled,

400
00:24:35.039 --> 00:24:35.880
if you wish.

401
00:24:35.720 --> 00:24:39.359
It, if I wish it, do you take me to

402
00:24:39.440 --> 00:24:46.240
be mad? Mister rains mad? Well, believe it so nothing,

403
00:24:46.400 --> 00:24:48.200
don't you think I see.

404
00:24:48.079 --> 00:24:50.519
Through your childish sub debuge.

405
00:24:51.359 --> 00:24:55.160
Leave Annabelle with you while I sail off to the

406
00:24:55.279 --> 00:24:58.599
ends of the earth. Please, I are you too trying

407
00:24:58.640 --> 00:25:01.799
to steal her away from me? But you can't have

408
00:25:02.039 --> 00:25:06.400
her anymore than Rogers could captain you. Your wife means

409
00:25:06.519 --> 00:25:10.079
nothing to me. You make sure she doesn't, just as

410
00:25:10.160 --> 00:25:14.839
I made sure with Rogers that it was you who. Yes,

411
00:25:15.079 --> 00:25:19.880
I killed him with these two hands, and he disappeared,

412
00:25:20.720 --> 00:25:26.359
just as you will. No, No, she mine only by

413
00:25:27.559 --> 00:25:30.200
No one can have her but me.

414
00:25:31.480 --> 00:25:45.680
Yeah, into the sea aims like Rogers.

415
00:25:45.640 --> 00:25:48.000
The sea can hold her secret.

416
00:25:48.119 --> 00:25:49.200
See you all right, captain?

417
00:25:49.559 --> 00:25:52.119
I thought I heard it. I told you to mind

418
00:25:52.119 --> 00:25:52.680
that wheel.

419
00:25:52.799 --> 00:25:53.880
Will I put the lash on it?

420
00:25:54.000 --> 00:25:54.200
Sir?

421
00:25:54.680 --> 00:25:56.640
I thought I heard a cry and that I could

422
00:25:56.640 --> 00:26:01.640
trust you will use cancer. But were's miss Ames, He's glad. Why, well,

423
00:26:01.680 --> 00:26:03.640
it was just that I thought I heard a splash it.

424
00:26:04.480 --> 00:26:09.480
Oh I I you can trust me, sir?

425
00:26:10.039 --> 00:26:14.400
No, no let go, No trust you with the wheel, No.

426
00:26:15.920 --> 00:26:16.599
Trust you with.

427
00:26:25.480 --> 00:26:31.160
Two more overboard, nineteen men the Annabella sailed with, and

428
00:26:31.200 --> 00:26:36.119
now there were seventeen evil man all of them, and

429
00:26:36.200 --> 00:26:40.799
Davy Jones swam the wake waiting for them. For the

430
00:26:40.920 --> 00:26:45.359
Captain mad would imagine jealousy had crossed the line of sanity.

431
00:26:46.240 --> 00:26:49.680
His obsession convinced him that he would know no peace

432
00:26:50.200 --> 00:26:54.279
untill everyone on the Annabella was gone, save himself and

433
00:26:54.319 --> 00:27:09.519
his wife. I'll be back shortly with a three. The

434
00:27:09.599 --> 00:27:13.000
squall that blew up so suddenly on the Annabella proved

435
00:27:13.039 --> 00:27:13.480
to be a.

436
00:27:13.480 --> 00:27:14.799
Full fledged hurricane.

437
00:27:15.240 --> 00:27:18.680
That's so fully occupied all aboard that there was no

438
00:27:18.759 --> 00:27:23.359
time to question missing men. Indeed, two other hands were

439
00:27:23.400 --> 00:27:26.319
blown out of the rigging or shaken loose before the

440
00:27:26.359 --> 00:27:29.480
Annabella found calm waters.

441
00:27:28.640 --> 00:27:30.599
In the eye of the storm.

442
00:27:30.839 --> 00:27:33.400
Now again, discontent grows in the forecastle.

443
00:27:34.160 --> 00:27:38.359
The talk of a haunted ship resumed. The word mutiny

444
00:27:39.039 --> 00:27:40.440
is on everyone's lips.

445
00:27:43.359 --> 00:27:45.680
Mister Buddy, mister buddy.

446
00:27:46.400 --> 00:27:47.400
Dinner early white.

447
00:27:47.759 --> 00:27:50.440
Now, Sir said, it's Muteley.

448
00:27:51.359 --> 00:27:55.519
What you heard, miss her? Muteley, you're about to break out.

449
00:27:55.519 --> 00:28:00.279
Oh White forecast grumblings. You know it's all took. They

450
00:28:00.279 --> 00:28:00.880
wouldn't dare.

451
00:28:01.000 --> 00:28:02.119
It's the Peabody, Sir.

452
00:28:02.200 --> 00:28:04.920
I've been at Seaman and Boy for over sixty year.

453
00:28:05.880 --> 00:28:07.039
I know when it's talk.

454
00:28:07.880 --> 00:28:11.359
They say the ship is cursed. Who says the Boston

455
00:28:11.519 --> 00:28:15.599
Sir Christophson he says he saw the rats leave the

456
00:28:15.640 --> 00:28:17.400
ship before we sails.

457
00:28:17.079 --> 00:28:19.880
And for an old wife superstition, he's ready for mute.

458
00:28:19.880 --> 00:28:22.920
It's a great deal more than that. There's five men

459
00:28:23.000 --> 00:28:23.839
lost already.

460
00:28:24.400 --> 00:28:25.319
I'm aware of it.

461
00:28:25.680 --> 00:28:29.319
Most of all it's the captain's wife. They'd luck with

462
00:28:29.359 --> 00:28:33.000
a woman aboard, particularly one that he keeps it away.

463
00:28:33.200 --> 00:28:35.400
But they expect the captain the parade his wife in

464
00:28:35.400 --> 00:28:36.440
front of common seamen.

465
00:28:36.559 --> 00:28:37.920
No, sir, but they wonder.

466
00:28:38.039 --> 00:28:38.640
I wonder what.

467
00:28:39.359 --> 00:28:42.759
Some say she's a witch. This is ugle at sin,

468
00:28:43.680 --> 00:28:46.680
and some say she's sick of the small box.

469
00:28:47.640 --> 00:28:48.880
A small box, it's a.

470
00:28:49.000 --> 00:28:49.680
Board, sir.

471
00:28:49.880 --> 00:28:50.680
I'm feared.

472
00:28:51.680 --> 00:28:54.839
Now, you do allarm me. I just have a look

473
00:28:54.880 --> 00:28:55.000
at it.

474
00:28:55.359 --> 00:28:57.640
If he has it, he has it, I'll put him

475
00:28:57.680 --> 00:29:00.839
in a leather ratte so I don't spread. The first

476
00:29:00.880 --> 00:29:03.799
thing is the mutiny, sir, that has to be stopped.

477
00:29:03.960 --> 00:29:05.200
It has to beginning first.

478
00:29:05.559 --> 00:29:08.519
It will begin unless the captain butt's about.

479
00:29:09.079 --> 00:29:11.599
You know how much chance isn't that you?

480
00:29:11.720 --> 00:29:14.799
Of all people, Yes, a sail with their captain.

481
00:29:14.839 --> 00:29:18.839
Before I was telling him a hard man, but a

482
00:29:18.880 --> 00:29:24.599
fair man, not this voyage. Something happened when he brought

483
00:29:24.640 --> 00:29:28.640
his wife aboard he's not the same man. I think

484
00:29:28.799 --> 00:29:32.920
that captain means to kill every one as he did

485
00:29:32.960 --> 00:29:38.160
the owner who rogers and ways Hi and even pageant.

486
00:29:37.480 --> 00:29:39.759
And bring and were blown out of the ridget.

487
00:29:40.200 --> 00:29:45.720
Perhaps, Sir, perraps the captain shock him loose by nothing?

488
00:29:46.640 --> 00:29:49.079
Why here, I think you're the one whose brains are scrambled.

489
00:29:49.759 --> 00:29:52.039
A member lost to the ball, and the two passengers

490
00:29:52.079 --> 00:29:53.920
and brings.

491
00:29:53.160 --> 00:29:56.759
Fell over, obviously drunk. A wife took the other two.

492
00:29:57.119 --> 00:30:00.480
The why is in not one mentioned? I shall have

493
00:30:00.839 --> 00:30:04.960
any of them be lost? In the ship's log.

494
00:30:06.400 --> 00:30:09.839
That's keptain the captain's hand, How could you know that

495
00:30:10.240 --> 00:30:10.680
I was.

496
00:30:10.599 --> 00:30:14.680
Writing in it here in this little last night, I

497
00:30:14.799 --> 00:30:18.039
was clearing the table he left to get fresh ink,

498
00:30:18.039 --> 00:30:23.319
and I looked at it. You can read in sixty

499
00:30:23.400 --> 00:30:25.720
years and see a man there's a lot of time

500
00:30:25.839 --> 00:30:29.119
on his hands, the toughness of long ago.

501
00:30:31.000 --> 00:30:36.000
You're sure of what you say on my oath, sir,

502
00:30:37.720 --> 00:30:42.960
And by God, we'd better turn back now, not risk

503
00:30:43.079 --> 00:30:45.160
by neck to hangman's loose by mutiny.

504
00:30:45.599 --> 00:30:50.000
Maybe maybe if you was to speak to that captain's lady,

505
00:30:51.160 --> 00:30:54.200
she's the only one to influence him.

506
00:30:54.400 --> 00:30:58.200
Why damn, you're right buddy Gold off the crew till

507
00:30:58.200 --> 00:30:59.640
I see if the lady you'll come to wire.

508
00:31:00.200 --> 00:31:02.240
Ay aye, mister Peabody.

509
00:31:09.359 --> 00:31:16.039
Mistress Adams, Mistress Adams, which is mister Peabody, first.

510
00:31:15.759 --> 00:31:16.759
Mate under the captain?

511
00:31:17.839 --> 00:31:18.039
Yeah?

512
00:31:19.119 --> 00:31:23.720
Can you hear me, Mistress Adams. I wouldn't disturb you,

513
00:31:24.000 --> 00:31:25.680
but the meta's urgent.

514
00:31:26.160 --> 00:31:32.599
Mister Peabody, may I ask what you are doing.

515
00:31:34.599 --> 00:31:37.759
Captain, and I wanted to talk to your wife.

516
00:31:38.079 --> 00:31:42.119
My wife is indisposed, she's a poor sailor, and these

517
00:31:42.240 --> 00:31:45.839
last days of worn are out. How dare you disturb her?

518
00:31:47.039 --> 00:31:51.839
I felt the metal urgent attend me in the saloon,

519
00:31:51.920 --> 00:31:54.839
mister Peabody, First, let me see to my wife.

520
00:31:55.920 --> 00:31:56.519
Hi.

521
00:32:03.720 --> 00:32:07.839
Fortunately, for my peace of mind and your welfare, you

522
00:32:07.960 --> 00:32:10.079
did not wait, Mistress Adams.

523
00:32:10.720 --> 00:32:12.839
Now why did you wish to see her?

524
00:32:13.640 --> 00:32:13.880
Well, I.

525
00:32:15.480 --> 00:32:17.799
Didn't think you'd be willing to bring the ship about

526
00:32:17.799 --> 00:32:20.440
and that for home. You're quite correct, I would not,

527
00:32:22.480 --> 00:32:26.480
feeling sure of that, I hope to enlist, Mistress Adams aid,

528
00:32:26.559 --> 00:32:28.200
and persuade you to change your mind.

529
00:32:28.759 --> 00:32:32.000
That was the only reason you chose to disobey my

530
00:32:32.240 --> 00:32:37.160
orders that no one no one was to approach my wife.

531
00:32:38.279 --> 00:32:42.680
What other reasons why are there? Indeed, why would you

532
00:32:42.839 --> 00:32:46.640
be so anxious to turn for home, mister Peabody.

533
00:32:47.599 --> 00:32:50.559
Because otherwise your face a mutant it captain's mutiny.

534
00:32:51.160 --> 00:32:53.599
Ha I, damn.

535
00:32:54.279 --> 00:32:57.519
I could ask for nothing better than the cut down

536
00:32:57.759 --> 00:32:58.920
some of the forwards.

537
00:32:59.039 --> 00:32:59.279
Come.

538
00:33:00.000 --> 00:33:03.519
If I didn't wear my pistols at all times, i'd

539
00:33:03.559 --> 00:33:08.960
have a knife between my ribs before this mutiny. Eh.

540
00:33:09.079 --> 00:33:13.240
And if they do, where do you stand, mister meat.

541
00:33:13.880 --> 00:33:18.319
I'm an officer, sir, but at arms. We'll remedy that

542
00:33:19.400 --> 00:33:22.319
catch the second meat while I break out the arms.

543
00:33:22.839 --> 00:33:25.880
Then we'll muster the crew on deck and have this out.

544
00:33:28.599 --> 00:33:33.519
What about the bush the dozen? No, I won't put

545
00:33:33.640 --> 00:33:37.480
firearms in his hands. The three of us can stand

546
00:33:37.519 --> 00:33:47.759
them off. Turn back, turn back of lily lived swine.

547
00:33:48.240 --> 00:33:51.960
I'll see it on the bottom for it now, heart

548
00:33:52.079 --> 00:33:55.319
to what I tell you. This voyage can make us

549
00:33:55.359 --> 00:34:00.720
all rich, no owner split down. The crapts are all hours.

550
00:34:01.119 --> 00:34:04.599
Sail on with me to Africa and we'll all reap

551
00:34:04.759 --> 00:34:07.519
ore my deep sected davy.

552
00:34:07.599 --> 00:34:09.719
Don't just knock off, stay hey.

553
00:34:09.599 --> 00:34:14.400
Yourself, mister Mufson, or oh of a bout the ship

554
00:34:14.480 --> 00:34:15.039
is cursed.

555
00:34:15.360 --> 00:34:18.960
Tom back will make you cor you qu when I order.

556
00:34:18.880 --> 00:34:20.320
I'll say, I hold your orders.

557
00:34:20.639 --> 00:34:21.599
Mister p Moser.

558
00:34:21.920 --> 00:34:23.519
You know what's happening about this ship?

559
00:34:23.679 --> 00:34:25.719
We'll sail under you? Would you so?

560
00:34:25.719 --> 00:34:26.039
Done?

561
00:34:26.079 --> 00:34:26.320
By you?

562
00:34:26.440 --> 00:34:26.599
Sir?

563
00:34:27.119 --> 00:34:32.199
Well, mister Peabody, where do you stand? You say where

564
00:34:32.199 --> 00:34:38.039
my pistol is? Aims Captain me. I suspected something like

565
00:34:38.119 --> 00:34:41.159
this when I found you below at my cabin. What

566
00:34:41.360 --> 00:34:42.519
would you do now?

567
00:34:43.119 --> 00:34:46.599
I'll ask for your pistols, sir. I'm taking over the ship.

568
00:34:47.599 --> 00:34:51.039
I guarantee you safe conduct court and my wife your

569
00:34:51.039 --> 00:34:55.280
wife too. Of course, if I refuse, don't make me

570
00:34:55.400 --> 00:34:56.559
pull this triggers up.

571
00:34:56.719 --> 00:34:59.599
That's just what I intend to do.

572
00:34:59.599 --> 00:35:02.440
Don't come on it cook you woo?

573
00:35:03.360 --> 00:35:06.480
Do you think I'd have handed you a loaded gun.

574
00:35:06.760 --> 00:35:11.079
Knowing what was in your mind?

575
00:35:11.639 --> 00:35:17.960
Punishment from euthanis dead? Where Who's next? Who else? Wanted

576
00:35:18.039 --> 00:35:23.559
to go on? T I thought so? We'll smell in

577
00:35:24.239 --> 00:35:27.679
the hurricanes coming back to the ringing all of you

578
00:35:28.079 --> 00:35:31.239
and read sailor by haven't yourself? Won't?

579
00:35:32.719 --> 00:35:35.559
We're breaking our last water from you, your murdering devil.

580
00:35:36.079 --> 00:35:37.079
Come back to your coming.

581
00:35:37.159 --> 00:35:38.280
I'll tell you how I want you.

582
00:35:38.440 --> 00:35:39.440
Chris Thompson.

583
00:35:40.800 --> 00:35:45.159
Kept your higher Sam you should never have shocked.

584
00:35:45.559 --> 00:35:47.119
Never started it.

585
00:35:47.119 --> 00:35:50.440
It's just what I want. I wanted any red abuse.

586
00:35:50.639 --> 00:35:55.039
Come now I have my chance, ran back to where

587
00:35:55.119 --> 00:35:55.800
I will lose.

588
00:35:56.960 --> 00:36:19.840
Never never had a puffer there, waity, wicked as storm

589
00:36:20.719 --> 00:36:24.880
right here, wallering the doldrums for god knows.

590
00:36:24.639 --> 00:36:28.679
How long it's as well, sir. There's scarcely enough men

591
00:36:28.760 --> 00:36:32.280
left to sail the ship. What there is is dog

592
00:36:32.480 --> 00:36:33.760
tired enough alive.

593
00:36:34.760 --> 00:36:35.960
How many left.

594
00:36:37.280 --> 00:36:42.760
Timmins died this morning, four killed in a mutiny, were

595
00:36:42.760 --> 00:36:47.599
more lost overboard, and Rudge who died in a fall

596
00:36:47.639 --> 00:36:51.159
from the crow's nest at least five.

597
00:36:51.000 --> 00:36:54.519
Sir, Hi, they ain't counting you, waity there counting me

598
00:36:55.960 --> 00:36:57.800
hive of you still between us?

599
00:36:58.480 --> 00:37:03.480
We're woeful shot sir. Yes, I have a mess cooking

600
00:37:03.559 --> 00:37:06.920
for the crew. Can I shut them down the way time?

601
00:37:08.119 --> 00:37:08.400
OI?

602
00:37:08.800 --> 00:37:08.960
Yes?

603
00:37:09.119 --> 00:37:13.960
Yes, of course we must all eat, But first serve

604
00:37:14.079 --> 00:37:18.079
all hands a double ration of grod, including yourself.

605
00:37:18.920 --> 00:37:22.760
I'll put a cask of rum out in the saloon, sir.

606
00:37:23.639 --> 00:37:27.079
Before you serve the crew, though, set the table in

607
00:37:27.159 --> 00:37:34.679
the saloons for six for sex captains, certainly the passengers,

608
00:37:34.960 --> 00:37:40.840
the two mates, myself and my wife. Oh last, my darling,

609
00:37:41.480 --> 00:37:42.920
I can bring you to the.

610
00:37:43.039 --> 00:37:47.880
Table as befits a captain's wife for the roll dead.

611
00:37:48.800 --> 00:37:53.920
We have nothing to fear from them anymore. Only five left,

612
00:37:54.360 --> 00:37:55.840
and they'll be gone soon.

613
00:37:55.920 --> 00:37:57.119
Annabella.

614
00:37:57.800 --> 00:38:00.000
You understand, don't you.

615
00:38:00.920 --> 00:38:05.559
It's all to keep you, to hold them from taking

616
00:38:05.599 --> 00:38:16.159
you from me, beloved, to hold you forever. Josiah, and

617
00:38:16.440 --> 00:38:17.960
what are you doing on deck?

618
00:38:18.840 --> 00:38:19.920
I'm looking for someone.

619
00:38:19.960 --> 00:38:22.920
I want you who, Josiah?

620
00:38:23.039 --> 00:38:29.320
Adam you them here? Animel here told me you were

621
00:38:30.320 --> 00:38:33.679
the Josiah I knew I still am.

622
00:38:34.800 --> 00:38:37.519
With the blood of all those men you killed on

623
00:38:37.599 --> 00:38:38.840
your hands.

624
00:38:38.719 --> 00:38:41.159
Stood between us and the ones that be left.

625
00:38:41.719 --> 00:38:43.679
Who drinks your poisons for.

626
00:38:43.760 --> 00:38:47.239
Are dying now. I had to kill them so we

627
00:38:47.360 --> 00:38:50.239
could be together always.

628
00:38:50.360 --> 00:38:51.239
Don't you see?

629
00:38:51.320 --> 00:38:53.719
That's what's tearing us apart?

630
00:38:53.960 --> 00:38:57.079
What were any of them were to deserve to live?

631
00:38:57.719 --> 00:39:03.519
Blackbirds and thieves, ripped wrap and murderers. They stand between

632
00:39:03.679 --> 00:39:05.000
us no longer.

633
00:39:05.480 --> 00:39:09.840
Only one thing stands between us, Josiah, Why are you

634
00:39:10.079 --> 00:39:13.159
too blind to see? No?

635
00:39:13.440 --> 00:39:18.280
And No? I took you from America with me. We

636
00:39:18.400 --> 00:39:19.920
can be safe on the.

637
00:39:19.840 --> 00:39:24.320
Other side of the world. I can sail the long boat,

638
00:39:25.119 --> 00:39:29.000
just the two of us, across the seas. We can

639
00:39:29.079 --> 00:39:32.880
struggle the ship, and even if she were raised, no

640
00:39:32.920 --> 00:39:36.679
one would know her secrets. I've kept the log as

641
00:39:36.800 --> 00:39:41.440
though the voyage was calm and uneventful. Let them find

642
00:39:41.519 --> 00:39:47.440
the ship. We'll be gone tonight. Last you can dye

643
00:39:47.519 --> 00:39:51.519
at the captain's table, as you always should have, and

644
00:39:51.679 --> 00:39:53.079
then we'll sail away.

645
00:39:54.519 --> 00:39:59.639
No, Josiah, search your heart and you know it can

646
00:39:59.719 --> 00:40:00.199
never be.

647
00:40:01.719 --> 00:40:06.480
It's all the cream, all the green.

648
00:40:07.880 --> 00:40:16.400
Stepping speak to me, to me.

649
00:40:17.400 --> 00:40:25.159
Oh for our captain called Frity. Don't be afraid. I'm

650
00:40:25.239 --> 00:40:31.119
still alive, but not for long thought you were a ghost. No,

651
00:40:32.360 --> 00:40:36.880
only one ghost sailed with the ship. Because you can't

652
00:40:36.920 --> 00:40:38.000
stand me anymore?

653
00:40:38.159 --> 00:40:38.599
Captain?

654
00:40:39.599 --> 00:40:40.360
Who dying?

655
00:40:41.280 --> 00:40:43.079
What's your wife about?

656
00:40:43.159 --> 00:40:43.760
My wife?

657
00:40:44.119 --> 00:40:50.320
She's dead to Captain, she always has been, long before

658
00:40:50.360 --> 00:40:57.559
we ever say yes killed, when the Indians got you

659
00:40:59.159 --> 00:41:01.239
dead for over two years now.

660
00:41:02.000 --> 00:41:03.280
It had to be capable.

661
00:41:03.840 --> 00:41:08.639
It had to be nobody, and your Kevin t me.

662
00:41:09.800 --> 00:41:13.360
Don't you think I didn't know? Didn't I see her

663
00:41:13.519 --> 00:41:18.840
die before my eyes? But I cheated death, and I

664
00:41:18.960 --> 00:41:22.880
cheated him of her. I took her away with me

665
00:41:23.079 --> 00:41:26.559
to this ship. I had to keep her alive.

666
00:41:26.760 --> 00:41:28.840
I had to you know I had to kill all

667
00:41:28.920 --> 00:41:33.239
of us to do it, because all of us alive

668
00:41:34.320 --> 00:41:36.599
were proof that she was.

669
00:41:36.840 --> 00:41:38.119
It had to be.

670
00:41:38.280 --> 00:41:43.440
When you're alone or last, or will be. All of

671
00:41:43.559 --> 00:41:47.800
us are dead save me, and I'm almost.

672
00:41:49.280 --> 00:41:52.239
Will be alone at last, and I can bring it

673
00:41:52.320 --> 00:41:55.239
to my table like the lady she is.

674
00:41:55.559 --> 00:41:57.159
The table is set.

675
00:41:56.960 --> 00:41:59.840
For sex, but there'll be only.

676
00:41:59.679 --> 00:42:01.639
One if you're there, kept.

677
00:42:03.599 --> 00:42:04.920
Two or five.

678
00:42:06.599 --> 00:42:10.719
The dead don't mix with the living. There's only one

679
00:42:10.760 --> 00:42:19.440
way to fund your wife, the game, only one way.

680
00:42:18.119 --> 00:42:26.239
The last of them, Annabella, we're free, Annabella, Where are you?

681
00:42:28.079 --> 00:42:29.599
Hannah? Come to me?

682
00:42:31.000 --> 00:42:35.119
Annabella and Ambella.

683
00:42:36.880 --> 00:42:41.239
I know you died long ago in America, to lived

684
00:42:41.239 --> 00:42:45.719
on in my mind, in my heart, and in my

685
00:42:45.840 --> 00:42:48.920
blood I thought of. I took you with me to

686
00:42:49.000 --> 00:42:51.480
the sea.

687
00:42:50.920 --> 00:42:54.639
Away from the land where I dug your grave. You

688
00:42:54.719 --> 00:42:59.119
could still live and breathe for me alone. There's only

689
00:42:59.280 --> 00:43:03.840
one way to find you. A glass, Oh Annabella, forgive

690
00:43:03.960 --> 00:43:08.519
me love for all that I've done. I'm coming home

691
00:43:08.719 --> 00:43:13.239
to you.

692
00:43:23.159 --> 00:43:28.079
Nineteen men say over the Annabella, and nineteen men went

693
00:43:28.119 --> 00:43:32.079
to the bottom of the sea. The ship weathered all

694
00:43:32.159 --> 00:43:33.440
the storms.

695
00:43:34.000 --> 00:43:37.880
But then a ship is a woman. It only goes

696
00:43:37.920 --> 00:43:40.320
to pool that on land or thieves.

697
00:43:41.239 --> 00:43:44.400
The ladies have the better instinct or survivors.

698
00:43:45.480 --> 00:43:47.000
I'll be back sortless.

699
00:43:48.800 --> 00:44:00.760
And somewhere in the green depths. I wonder if the

700
00:44:00.840 --> 00:44:05.039
captain sits presiding at his table. But if he does,

701
00:44:05.880 --> 00:44:10.599
there's at least one empty seat for mister Annabella died

702
00:44:10.639 --> 00:44:15.920
on Lamb. She'll never come back to the thief for him,

703
00:44:16.239 --> 00:44:20.960
which seems fair enough, wouldn't you thing he didn't exactly

704
00:44:21.000 --> 00:44:27.320
deserve happy ending. Our cast included George Matthews, Brett Morrison,

705
00:44:27.559 --> 00:44:32.760
Marion Felders, Leon Johnny and William Redfield. The entire production

706
00:44:32.960 --> 00:44:34.800
was under the direction of Hymon Brown.

707
00:44:36.880 --> 00:44:41.960
Now a preview of our next tale, Sipling strikes again.

708
00:44:47.840 --> 00:44:52.840
My dear, you seem to be enjoying yourself while at

709
00:44:52.920 --> 00:44:59.159
least in the way that we enjoy the dog. Let

710
00:44:59.199 --> 00:45:05.119
me see about the tea. Who It is a bit hot,

711
00:45:05.199 --> 00:45:09.960
but I think it might be just right for you.

712
00:45:11.440 --> 00:45:11.800
Hmm.

713
00:45:13.159 --> 00:45:17.880
A little time, a little fire, and before you know it,

714
00:45:17.960 --> 00:45:25.800
it's what you desire. Oh now, where is that young man,

715
00:45:26.719 --> 00:45:29.239
the one with the cream tarts?

716
00:45:41.679 --> 00:45:44.320
Started your Christmas shopping at?

717
00:45:44.599 --> 00:45:48.119
Worried about where the money is coming from? I want

718
00:45:48.119 --> 00:45:48.840
to get away from it.

719
00:45:49.880 --> 00:45:50.599
We offer you.

720
00:45:51.360 --> 00:45:52.719
Escape m hm.

721
00:46:02.840 --> 00:46:05.440
He was seated around a green felt table with a

722
00:46:05.480 --> 00:46:08.800
dozen desperate men, waiting for the turn of a card.

723
00:46:09.800 --> 00:46:13.000
If it's the Ace of Spades, you will be next,

724
00:46:13.760 --> 00:46:17.559
and you desperately desire the impossible escape.

725
00:46:20.159 --> 00:46:24.400
Escape produced and directed by William N. Robeson and carefully

726
00:46:24.440 --> 00:46:27.280
plotted to free you from the four walls of today

727
00:46:27.719 --> 00:46:29.960
for a half hour of high adventure.

728
00:46:34.719 --> 00:46:38.400
Tonight we escaped to London of the last century, A

729
00:46:38.480 --> 00:46:41.960
London of gas lights and handsome cabs, A London where

730
00:46:41.960 --> 00:46:45.079
a gentleman still valued his word of honor above his life.

731
00:46:46.000 --> 00:46:49.000
A London of which one terrifying incident is recorded by

732
00:46:49.039 --> 00:46:53.840
Robert Louis Stevenson and his Unforgettable story The young man

733
00:46:53.880 --> 00:47:08.679
with a cream tarts?

734
00:47:00.280 --> 00:47:14.079
Oh Lord, or rather city seems to awful little amusement tonight?

735
00:47:14.840 --> 00:47:17.760
Well, bottom's up, Let's be on our way right O,

736
00:47:18.679 --> 00:47:19.920
Your health and yours?

737
00:47:21.440 --> 00:47:25.039
Please have a cream parliment made?

738
00:47:25.039 --> 00:47:25.760
Will you honow me?

739
00:47:27.199 --> 00:47:27.400
Well?

740
00:47:27.440 --> 00:47:30.239
No, what's this young man with a tray of cream turns?

741
00:47:30.360 --> 00:47:33.039
He's giving them away? Perhaps one of the turns on

742
00:47:33.079 --> 00:47:36.440
the Perhaps shall we go? Yes? Let's I pray you

743
00:47:36.519 --> 00:47:37.440
accept this confection.

744
00:47:37.519 --> 00:47:39.199
For if you do not, I am bound to eat

745
00:47:39.199 --> 00:47:41.480
it myself. You must be crazy. It was never more

746
00:47:41.559 --> 00:47:46.000
seen I do, and there's nothing for it my twenty

747
00:47:46.559 --> 00:47:50.880
seventh part. Since five o'clock. Now there are but two

748
00:47:50.960 --> 00:47:54.400
left you, sir? Will you so far under an entire

749
00:47:54.400 --> 00:47:57.440
stranger truly excellent pastry? I should know I've eaten.

750
00:47:57.199 --> 00:47:58.239
A of them.

751
00:47:58.280 --> 00:48:00.559
It is not the nature of a gift that is important,

752
00:48:00.920 --> 00:48:02.519
but the spirit in which it is offered.

753
00:48:02.679 --> 00:48:07.079
Spirits hair is one of mockery. Mockery and whom do

754
00:48:07.119 --> 00:48:10.000
you mark myself? However, my purpose at the moment is

755
00:48:10.039 --> 00:48:12.719
not confession, but rather distribution of these cream tarts.

756
00:48:12.760 --> 00:48:15.559
Won't you and your friend disposed to the last time hees?

757
00:48:16.239 --> 00:48:17.239
Here's on one condition.

758
00:48:17.880 --> 00:48:19.920
If my friend and I eat your last two cakes,

759
00:48:20.159 --> 00:48:22.039
we shall expect you to join us at supper.

760
00:48:22.119 --> 00:48:22.440
Supper.

761
00:48:22.480 --> 00:48:25.320
It's a horrible thought. I've already eaten two dozen of

762
00:48:25.320 --> 00:48:26.039
these pastries.

763
00:48:26.280 --> 00:48:29.000
Very well, then we shall omit supper and become better

764
00:48:29.000 --> 00:48:30.880
acquainted over a bottle of wine.

765
00:48:30.920 --> 00:48:33.840
I'm uncertain that my repugnance for these two remaining tarts

766
00:48:33.840 --> 00:48:36.679
of the attraction of your invitation compels me, but I.

767
00:48:36.679 --> 00:48:39.599
Accept excellent then let us finish off your pastry and

768
00:48:39.639 --> 00:48:40.760
seek a more quiet place.

769
00:48:40.880 --> 00:48:50.760
How about Michelle's and soho splendid? Shall we go an

770
00:48:50.800 --> 00:48:54.480
excellent restaurant, an excellent wine, and two excellent friends. I

771
00:48:54.559 --> 00:48:55.199
drink to your.

772
00:48:55.079 --> 00:48:59.000
Health and we drink to yours. I'm sure you will

773
00:48:59.079 --> 00:49:03.320
understand my curiyosity, but you are curious naturally. Although I

774
00:49:03.360 --> 00:49:06.000
suspect that your story is probably a silly one, indeed

775
00:49:06.679 --> 00:49:08.840
you may rest assured that we are two of the

776
00:49:08.880 --> 00:49:12.840
silliest men in England. My name is Godall, theophilis Goodall,

777
00:49:12.880 --> 00:49:15.159
and my friend here is Major Alfred Hammersmith.

778
00:49:15.400 --> 00:49:18.119
I like you, mister Godall, and juw Major Hammersmith. Though

779
00:49:18.119 --> 00:49:20.079
I suspect there's not your right name, this is of

780
00:49:20.079 --> 00:49:22.239
no importance exactly, nor is my name, so I will

781
00:49:22.239 --> 00:49:24.599
not divulge it. Although I see no reason why I

782
00:49:24.639 --> 00:49:27.360
should deny you my story. It's brief and foolish.

783
00:49:27.519 --> 00:49:30.320
Pray tell us then, it's an off told tale, a

784
00:49:30.400 --> 00:49:32.880
modest fortune which I squandered in the usual ways at

785
00:49:32.880 --> 00:49:36.119
cards the horse races in Paris. Been two months ago.

786
00:49:36.159 --> 00:49:38.679
I met a young lady exactly suited to my taste

787
00:49:38.719 --> 00:49:41.559
in mind and body, My heart melted. I was in

788
00:49:41.679 --> 00:49:42.440
love too.

789
00:49:42.559 --> 00:49:45.639
Late yesterday my solicitor warned me that I had but

790
00:49:45.679 --> 00:49:48.079
a hundred pounds left in the world. Forty of these

791
00:49:48.119 --> 00:49:51.159
I used last night for a spatial purpose, and I

792
00:49:51.199 --> 00:49:53.920
have agreeably spent the day disposing of the remaining sixty

793
00:49:53.920 --> 00:49:56.000
pounds in as foolish a manner as I could devise.

794
00:49:56.360 --> 00:49:58.840
And the future, the future, has been taken care of

795
00:49:58.880 --> 00:50:00.079
by the forty pounds.

796
00:50:00.280 --> 00:50:03.760
Is it not odd that we three should have met

797
00:50:03.760 --> 00:50:06.800
by the merest accident in so large a wilderness as London,

798
00:50:07.599 --> 00:50:12.639
and be so nearly in the same condition. Yes, Major Hammersmith,

799
00:50:12.679 --> 00:50:15.559
I was thinking the very same thing. What's this? Are

800
00:50:15.559 --> 00:50:18.920
you two also ruined? Is this bottle of excellent wine?

801
00:50:18.960 --> 00:50:22.320
The last falling like my cream parts? Very nearly, sir,

802
00:50:22.960 --> 00:50:25.480
and perhaps a week behind you. I still have a

803
00:50:25.519 --> 00:50:28.599
few banknotes in my wallet. However, here know this bill

804
00:50:28.639 --> 00:50:30.639
will take care of the bottle of wine and the

805
00:50:30.679 --> 00:50:31.960
others I throw into the fire.

806
00:50:32.039 --> 00:50:35.000
Oh no, you shouldn't have burned all of them. You

807
00:50:35.039 --> 00:50:38.880
should have kept forty pounds. Forty pounds, why why not

808
00:50:39.000 --> 00:50:41.880
fifty or seventy? For to my certain knowledge, there were

809
00:50:41.920 --> 00:50:44.000
more than a hundred in his wallet. It's only just

810
00:50:44.119 --> 00:50:47.440
forty pounds he needed. Without them, there is no admission.

811
00:50:47.599 --> 00:50:50.760
The rule is strict. What do you mean I have

812
00:50:50.840 --> 00:50:53.920
not yet completely emptied my pocket book. You are not

813
00:50:54.119 --> 00:50:58.400
fooling me. You are indeed ruined men like me. Oh, indeed,

814
00:50:59.079 --> 00:51:01.079
could you muster eighty pounds between you?

815
00:51:01.199 --> 00:51:05.119
Well, let me look in my wallet. Yes, eighteen, a little.

816
00:51:04.880 --> 00:51:08.360
Over than you are, indeed most fortunate. Forty pounds each

817
00:51:08.440 --> 00:51:11.239
is the initiation fee of the suicide Club.

818
00:51:12.239 --> 00:51:16.199
The suicide Club. What the devil is that? The suicide

819
00:51:16.199 --> 00:51:20.760
Club is death's private door. It's the ultimate convenience in

820
00:51:20.800 --> 00:51:26.320
our modern world. It exists for unfortunates like costs, those

821
00:51:26.320 --> 00:51:29.639
to whom the painful agony of corrosive poison is distasteful,

822
00:51:30.239 --> 00:51:32.679
For those whose courage fails them when the cool muzzle

823
00:51:32.760 --> 00:51:35.719
chills the forehead, for those whose fear of drowning is

824
00:51:35.760 --> 00:51:39.960
greater than their compulsion to die. While these sensitive misfits,

825
00:51:39.960 --> 00:51:44.559
the suicide Club ranges every detail. If you are truly

826
00:51:44.639 --> 00:51:46.400
tired of life, I will introduce you to night, to

827
00:51:46.440 --> 00:51:49.400
a meeting, and I can assure you that within the

828
00:51:49.440 --> 00:51:52.440
week you will be relieved of the burden of living.

829
00:51:53.880 --> 00:51:56.960
What do you say? It's more serious than a cream tart?

830
00:51:57.000 --> 00:52:01.960
And I suspect more palatable, more serious certainly, so I

831
00:52:01.960 --> 00:52:03.840
I wonder if you would give mister Godarl and Knee

832
00:52:04.000 --> 00:52:07.960
five minutes alone to discuss it. Certainly I shall wait out, Sir,

833
00:52:10.880 --> 00:52:13.760
your highness, This adventure must stop here.

834
00:52:13.960 --> 00:52:17.800
Nonsense, Colonel Deryldine, I propose to see this through, see

835
00:52:17.800 --> 00:52:22.039
you through to what death? You forget your obligations, not

836
00:52:22.079 --> 00:52:25.039
only to yourself but to your country. Prince Florizaill of

837
00:52:25.440 --> 00:52:28.239
Bohemia cannot risk to night. I am plain, mister Goddar,

838
00:52:28.880 --> 00:52:32.639
and so I propose to remain. And please remember, Colonel Geraldine,

839
00:52:33.119 --> 00:52:36.079
under those circumstances are you to betray my incognito? What

840
00:52:36.280 --> 00:52:39.320
your high We have survived graver adventures than this one

841
00:52:39.360 --> 00:52:43.519
promises to be. And now, Colonel Geraldine, let us pay

842
00:52:43.519 --> 00:52:47.599
our bill and accompany our young wastrel two Death's private door.

843
00:52:48.159 --> 00:53:08.960
Well here you aren't box court, gentlemen, we have a ride.

844
00:53:10.320 --> 00:53:15.679
Here you are cabby. Keep the change, well, mister Godar,

845
00:53:16.039 --> 00:53:19.719
Major hammer Smith, there is still time to change your minds.

846
00:53:19.880 --> 00:53:23.000
Lead on, sir, my mind's made up, and mine follow

847
00:53:23.039 --> 00:53:30.079
me then, as dark as a tomb.

848
00:53:30.239 --> 00:53:39.480
An aptain concise simply, here we are gentlemen, have death's

849
00:53:39.599 --> 00:53:52.719
private door. So we want to pray. Let's I may

850
00:53:52.840 --> 00:53:55.599
hang your things in here, shall be good enough to wait.

851
00:53:55.639 --> 00:54:00.519
I shall call the President, have all our bodies. This

852
00:54:00.679 --> 00:54:03.440
is the wildest and most dangerous. I'm beginning to believe

853
00:54:03.480 --> 00:54:06.000
you're right. Let me beseech your Highness not forget you

854
00:54:06.039 --> 00:54:09.360
are my aide decon, not your father. Yet I am

855
00:54:09.400 --> 00:54:12.880
responsible to the King for your will. Girld Geraldine, you're

856
00:54:12.920 --> 00:54:17.719
not afraid, certainly, not for myself, but for your Highness.

857
00:54:18.320 --> 00:54:21.239
President will see you in his office. I have vouched

858
00:54:21.239 --> 00:54:23.920
for you, but you must give him honest answers. The

859
00:54:23.960 --> 00:54:26.840
indiscretion of a single member might lead to the dispersion

860
00:54:26.880 --> 00:54:30.639
of the society forever. You can't afford to take that risk.

861
00:54:31.960 --> 00:54:37.360
Follow me, I'm here. He's waiting for you.

862
00:54:41.199 --> 00:54:41.840
Good evening.

863
00:54:43.880 --> 00:54:45.840
I am told that you wish to speak to me.

864
00:54:46.960 --> 00:54:50.800
We have a desire, sir, to join the suicide Club.

865
00:54:51.719 --> 00:54:54.320
Sir, you've made a mistake. This is a private house.

866
00:54:54.559 --> 00:54:56.719
You must leave it instantly. We have come here upon

867
00:54:56.719 --> 00:54:59.800
the invitation of a friend of yours. He's already told

868
00:54:59.800 --> 00:55:03.280
you our desires. Believe me, sir, When one has come

869
00:55:03.360 --> 00:55:05.320
this far along the path, one is not likely to

870
00:55:05.320 --> 00:55:10.079
be turned away, and certainly will tolerate little rudeness. Permit

871
00:55:10.159 --> 00:55:12.840
me to assure you either you will oblige us in

872
00:55:12.880 --> 00:55:15.639
the matter, or you'll regret ever having admitted us to

873
00:55:15.679 --> 00:55:20.440
the premises. Well, now that's more like it. This is

874
00:55:20.480 --> 00:55:24.119
no place for men not yet desperate. I believe you, sir,

875
00:55:25.159 --> 00:55:26.079
But what of your friend?

876
00:55:26.360 --> 00:55:29.480
My reasons are even more cogent than mister Goodall's. I er,

877
00:55:30.360 --> 00:55:32.880
I was cashiered out of my regiment last week. Why

878
00:55:33.880 --> 00:55:35.880
cheating at cards? I see?

879
00:55:36.880 --> 00:55:40.400
And you, sir, what is your reason for being tired

880
00:55:40.440 --> 00:55:42.840
of life unadulterated laziness?

881
00:55:42.880 --> 00:55:45.599
Don't trifle with me, sir. You must have a better.

882
00:55:45.400 --> 00:55:48.119
Reason than that I have no more money and I'm

883
00:55:48.159 --> 00:55:53.119
much too lazy to come by any hm. If I

884
00:55:53.159 --> 00:55:55.320
did not have a great deal of experience in these matters,

885
00:55:55.320 --> 00:55:58.199
I would turn you down. But I have learned that

886
00:55:58.239 --> 00:56:01.679
the most frivolous excuses for us, as i'd often cover

887
00:56:01.800 --> 00:56:04.880
a deep and lifelong desire for self destruction. Thank you

888
00:56:04.920 --> 00:56:09.159
for your understanding, sir, Very well to business. I shall

889
00:56:09.159 --> 00:56:11.119
read you the oath of membership, to which you will

890
00:56:11.159 --> 00:56:15.559
each subscribe. I swear to obey without question the instructions

891
00:56:15.599 --> 00:56:18.320
of the President of this association or any of his

892
00:56:18.360 --> 00:56:23.239
appointed deputies. Realizing that desirable death could scarcely be a

893
00:56:23.280 --> 00:56:26.639
penalty for violating this oath, I am aware that any

894
00:56:26.719 --> 00:56:29.079
violation will be met at the discretion of the President

895
00:56:29.119 --> 00:56:34.280
by those means deemed suitable by him, namely excommunication from

896
00:56:34.320 --> 00:56:38.079
the church, loss of whatever honor still attaches to my name,

897
00:56:39.039 --> 00:56:42.840
and or, when necessary, violent reprisals against my bereaved family.

898
00:56:44.360 --> 00:56:46.719
In full knowledge of the sacredness of this oath, I

899
00:56:46.760 --> 00:56:52.039
subscribe my name. Well, gentlemen, you are in a position

900
00:56:52.079 --> 00:56:53.400
to enforce those penalties.

901
00:56:54.400 --> 00:56:55.119
I am.

902
00:56:56.599 --> 00:57:03.239
Hand me the pen, my friend, the pen please, Major Hammersmith,

903
00:57:04.159 --> 00:57:09.960
thank you. That will be forty palms of peace. Please

904
00:57:10.440 --> 00:57:13.840
here you are, thank you. Now, would you like to

905
00:57:13.880 --> 00:57:16.039
join the members in the smoking room? Indeed we would

906
00:57:16.440 --> 00:57:22.000
this way. Please just make yourself at home. Everyone's quite

907
00:57:22.000 --> 00:57:24.679
informal here, if your pardon me, I have some other

908
00:57:24.719 --> 00:57:25.440
matters to attend.

909
00:57:25.599 --> 00:57:28.840
Come along, Major, let's mingle with the company. Your high quiet.

910
00:57:28.920 --> 00:57:30.960
Oh there you are, got in all right, I see

911
00:57:31.119 --> 00:57:32.840
naturally you'll never regret it.

912
00:57:32.960 --> 00:57:34.639
I'm sure we Shan't you care.

913
00:57:34.519 --> 00:57:36.480
For a game of bellods and praps some whists?

914
00:57:36.559 --> 00:57:39.239
No, not immediately, thank you. I'd like just to wander

915
00:57:39.280 --> 00:57:40.559
around and listen to the conversation.

916
00:57:40.679 --> 00:57:43.960
You'll find it most revealing. She had always stood in

917
00:57:43.960 --> 00:57:46.079
the way of anything I wanted to do, and I

918
00:57:46.079 --> 00:57:48.320
don't care if she was my mother. She crossed me

919
00:57:48.400 --> 00:57:49.000
one time to.

920
00:57:49.000 --> 00:57:52.440
Offer I have joined this wretched club. If I had

921
00:57:52.480 --> 00:57:55.320
not read the Origin of the Species by Darwin, I

922
00:57:55.320 --> 00:57:57.280
could not bear to be descended from an ape.

923
00:57:57.360 --> 00:58:02.280
Certainly some men who cannot abide the restrictions of the monastery.

924
00:58:02.719 --> 00:58:05.559
And after the abbot discovered me, there was nothing I

925
00:58:05.599 --> 00:58:05.920
could do.

926
00:58:06.079 --> 00:58:09.440
It's incomprehensible to me. What is by this talk, this

927
00:58:09.639 --> 00:58:12.960
boasting the self justification. If the man has made up

928
00:58:12.960 --> 00:58:14.599
his mind to kill himself, let him do it like

929
00:58:14.599 --> 00:58:15.119
a gentleman.

930
00:58:15.400 --> 00:58:16.280
Be done with the matter.

931
00:58:16.920 --> 00:58:18.719
As I told you, there are some of us more

932
00:58:18.800 --> 00:58:20.480
frightened of the act than.

933
00:58:20.400 --> 00:58:21.039
Of the result.

934
00:58:21.480 --> 00:58:23.199
There's only one man in this room who does not

935
00:58:23.280 --> 00:58:24.679
seem to be in a state of hystery.

936
00:58:24.960 --> 00:58:25.320
Who is that?

937
00:58:25.440 --> 00:58:28.880
Mister Godon? By the gentleman sitting under the van. Oh, yes, yes,

938
00:58:28.920 --> 00:58:31.280
mister Marcus, would you like to meet him?

939
00:58:31.440 --> 00:58:34.480
Yes? Please? These others are too obvious. There's nothing very

940
00:58:34.559 --> 00:58:37.880
subtle about mister Malts. He looks like death himself, wearing

941
00:58:37.920 --> 00:58:40.599
thick eye glasses. Let us discover for ourselves the reason

942
00:58:40.679 --> 00:58:42.199
for his relaxation.

943
00:58:41.760 --> 00:58:45.239
Mister Marcus, Eh, I should like to present two new members,

944
00:58:45.239 --> 00:58:47.639
mister Goodall and Major Hammersmith.

945
00:58:47.960 --> 00:58:50.519
Are you do, gentlemen? How do you do? Mister pleasure?

946
00:58:50.519 --> 00:58:50.599
Sir?

947
00:58:51.159 --> 00:58:53.639
Won't you sit down when you come?

948
00:58:53.719 --> 00:58:54.719
As you come?

949
00:58:54.800 --> 00:58:57.960
As I envy you the novelty of your first visit.

950
00:58:59.360 --> 00:59:02.800
You will learn relish it if you're spared. Why, my

951
00:59:02.960 --> 00:59:07.320
dear sir, this club, gentlemen, is the temple of intoxication.

952
00:59:07.559 --> 00:59:09.760
If my health would permit it, you may be sure

953
00:59:10.199 --> 00:59:13.639
I would be here more often, for this is my

954
00:59:13.880 --> 00:59:19.119
last dissivation. Believe me, sir, I've tried them. Are all

955
00:59:19.239 --> 00:59:24.360
the vicests? Yes, people trifle with love and ignorantly call

956
00:59:24.400 --> 00:59:28.039
it man's most powerful passion, nonsense or nonsense.

957
00:59:28.159 --> 00:59:28.440
Fear.

958
00:59:28.719 --> 00:59:31.840
Fear is the strongest passion. It is fair that you

959
00:59:31.920 --> 00:59:34.840
must trifle with if you wish to taste the intense

960
00:59:35.039 --> 00:59:39.800
joys of living. Envy me, sir, envy me, I am.

961
00:59:39.719 --> 00:59:44.400
A powered How, sir, is the excitement so artfully prolonged?

962
00:59:44.440 --> 00:59:44.960
Oh?

963
00:59:45.000 --> 00:59:47.639
Of course, of course, I must tell you how the

964
00:59:47.719 --> 00:59:51.239
victim for every evening is selected, as well as the

965
00:59:51.360 --> 00:59:54.079
member who is to be death, Sir High Priest.

966
00:59:53.880 --> 00:59:57.159
For the occasion, Great heavens, you mean they kill each other.

967
00:59:57.440 --> 01:00:00.840
The guilt of suicide is removed in that way, then I,

968
01:00:01.320 --> 01:00:04.039
or my friend or you, any of us might be

969
01:00:04.079 --> 01:00:08.000
selected this evening to murder another man exactly. But have

970
01:00:08.119 --> 01:00:09.639
they escaped the attentions of the law.

971
01:00:09.800 --> 01:00:14.480
Ah, The ingenuity of our president knows no limits. The

972
01:00:14.960 --> 01:00:17.840
debach has always appear to be accidental.

973
01:00:17.840 --> 01:00:21.519
Why it's monstrous. On the contrary, my dear mate, it

974
01:00:21.639 --> 01:00:24.400
is godlike? Oh yes, yes, of course.

975
01:00:25.159 --> 01:00:27.719
But mister Malthus, I am still in the darkest of

976
01:00:27.760 --> 01:00:30.079
how the members are selected for the evening's work.

977
01:00:30.239 --> 01:00:33.599
Oh of course I forgot to explain. But I see

978
01:00:33.599 --> 01:00:35.960
that the others are filing into the card room now

979
01:00:36.000 --> 01:00:38.480
and the play is about to begin. You shall see

980
01:00:38.519 --> 01:00:39.119
for yourself.

981
01:00:40.000 --> 01:00:42.039
Will you lend me the help of your arm.

982
01:00:42.159 --> 01:00:48.559
I'm quite paralyzed, you know, Oh of course, eh, thank you, Ah,

983
01:00:48.840 --> 01:00:54.119
this is the moment which I live, the quescence of poignancy,

984
01:00:54.360 --> 01:00:59.000
the alchimate of passion, coming here as infrequently as I do.

985
01:00:59.199 --> 01:01:02.320
I've say, with this bitter taste, to fear longer than

986
01:01:02.360 --> 01:01:02.920
the others.

987
01:01:03.400 --> 01:01:07.719
But my turn will come. Who knows, perhaps night? But

988
01:01:08.280 --> 01:01:10.880
how is it done? Tell us what to expect? Oh,

989
01:01:10.960 --> 01:01:11.920
it's so simple.

990
01:01:12.320 --> 01:01:15.559
The president deals from an ordinary deck playing cards, and

991
01:01:15.719 --> 01:01:18.159
each man turns up his guard as he receives it.

992
01:01:18.519 --> 01:01:22.079
The Ace of spades, the card of death, Ace of

993
01:01:22.119 --> 01:01:27.280
clubs designates the official woman, knight, the murderer. If you like, ahh,

994
01:01:27.760 --> 01:01:32.719
get three chairs together. Happy, happy, young men. You have

995
01:01:32.800 --> 01:01:36.400
good eyes and you can follow the cards. I only

996
01:01:36.440 --> 01:01:37.760
make out the faces.

997
01:01:37.920 --> 01:01:40.039
It's everyone here, my friend.

998
01:01:40.679 --> 01:01:42.760
We still have a fighting chance to escape the quiet.

999
01:01:43.000 --> 01:01:43.840
Let us play the game.

1000
01:01:44.960 --> 01:01:45.519
Gentlemen.

1001
01:01:48.239 --> 01:01:49.920
Three of clubs, so.

1002
01:01:52.599 --> 01:01:53.960
Jack of hearts.

1003
01:01:56.000 --> 01:02:07.039
And of diamonds, King of clubs, Queen of hearts, three

1004
01:02:07.039 --> 01:02:11.559
of spades, nine of clubs.

1005
01:02:12.360 --> 01:02:13.360
Six of spades.

1006
01:02:16.599 --> 01:02:19.719
The host that are young men of the cream tis

1007
01:02:19.760 --> 01:02:20.960
from the Ace of clubs.

1008
01:02:21.159 --> 01:02:24.519
I came here to be killed, not to kill a gentleman.

1009
01:02:25.679 --> 01:02:28.840
I must have harshened the members against such unsavely odd bursts.

1010
01:02:30.280 --> 01:02:32.760
Since the Ace of Spades has not yet turned up.

1011
01:02:32.800 --> 01:02:34.079
I will continue the deal.

1012
01:02:37.559 --> 01:02:41.039
Of has seven of.

1013
01:02:41.079 --> 01:02:48.800
Clubs, King of diamonds.

1014
01:02:46.280 --> 01:02:58.840
Jack of spade, ace, Oh eight, mister math That concludes

1015
01:02:58.880 --> 01:03:01.519
the play for the night. Gentle and well, the member

1016
01:03:01.519 --> 01:03:03.639
who drew the Ace of Clubs come to my office

1017
01:03:03.679 --> 01:03:04.719
for his instructions.

1018
01:03:22.760 --> 01:03:28.199
Did your highness dream? Yes? Good morning, Roderick. I shall

1019
01:03:28.199 --> 01:03:29.639
have my breakfast in bed this morning.

1020
01:03:30.960 --> 01:03:34.079
And Colonel Geraldine has been waiting for you to awake him.

1021
01:03:34.280 --> 01:03:39.639
Oh, very well, show him? Can it affer to you now?

1022
01:03:44.000 --> 01:03:48.599
Good morning Geraldine? Sleep well, not too well? Did I

1023
01:03:48.719 --> 01:03:51.719
dream it? Or were we initiated into the suicide club

1024
01:03:51.800 --> 01:03:55.800
last night? Seems like a nightmare. It was a nightmare,

1025
01:03:56.480 --> 01:04:01.039
but you didn't dream it. Here look at this morning paper.

1026
01:04:00.920 --> 01:04:01.320
Well.

1027
01:04:03.559 --> 01:04:10.719
Melancholy accident this morning, about two o'clock, mister Bartholomew Mauthus,

1028
01:04:10.880 --> 01:04:15.480
of sixteen Chepstow Place, Westboin Grove, on his way home

1029
01:04:15.480 --> 01:04:19.360
from a party at a friend's house, fell off the

1030
01:04:19.599 --> 01:04:28.159
upper parapet in Trafalgar Square, fracturing his skull. Death was instantaneous.

1031
01:04:28.639 --> 01:04:32.360
Mister Malthus, accompanied by a friend, was engaged in looking

1032
01:04:32.400 --> 01:04:35.000
for a cab at the time. If Heather a soul

1033
01:04:35.079 --> 01:04:39.239
went straight to Helen. Was that poor paralytic? Yes, at

1034
01:04:39.320 --> 01:04:41.519
least he is dead and out of it. But think

1035
01:04:41.519 --> 01:04:44.400
of our young man of the cream tarts last night.

1036
01:04:44.440 --> 01:04:47.840
That lad was as innocent as you and I. This

1037
01:04:47.960 --> 01:04:48.599
morning he is a.

1038
01:04:48.639 --> 01:04:54.079
Murderer, and thank Heaven's we're safely out of it, are we. No,

1039
01:04:55.280 --> 01:04:59.199
you're not going to return. I must. You are infected

1040
01:04:59.199 --> 01:05:01.320
with a passion of fear, just as poor Malthus was.

1041
01:05:01.639 --> 01:05:06.760
Perhaps, but ever it is tonight once more we take

1042
01:05:06.760 --> 01:05:19.599
our places at the table of the suicide Club. Good evening,

1043
01:05:20.079 --> 01:05:23.960
Good evening, mister goodall back again to try your luck. Yes, indeed,

1044
01:05:24.320 --> 01:05:28.960
and Major Hammersmith, good evening you. You are to be congratulated,

1045
01:05:29.039 --> 01:05:33.159
sir on the matter of mister Malthus, very neatly handled.

1046
01:05:33.960 --> 01:05:37.639
I go, but I shall miss poor Marthe he was

1047
01:05:37.679 --> 01:05:39.679
a man. I could talk to him. Yes, your bereavement

1048
01:05:39.719 --> 01:05:43.199
must weigh heavily upon you, indeed it does so. But

1049
01:05:43.280 --> 01:05:46.239
then it's all in the game. And now you will

1050
01:05:46.280 --> 01:05:48.360
pardon me, we will sit down the play directly.

1051
01:05:48.440 --> 01:05:52.400
A fiend, the poul fiend of hestay, my friend. Once more,

1052
01:05:52.480 --> 01:05:55.000
let me plead with you, leave this evil house before

1053
01:05:55.039 --> 01:05:56.800
it's too late. You're very tiresome tonight.

1054
01:05:57.119 --> 01:06:01.320
Oh oh, here's a young friend of the cream tarking

1055
01:06:01.360 --> 01:06:02.079
old chap.

1056
01:06:02.840 --> 01:06:06.519
Mister good manja hammer Smith. Oh, I wish I'd never

1057
01:06:06.559 --> 01:06:08.679
brought you to this in from his place, or leave,

1058
01:06:09.400 --> 01:06:10.840
leave while your hands are still clean.

1059
01:06:10.920 --> 01:06:13.599
But our oath, we could not go back upon, our oath,

1060
01:06:13.760 --> 01:06:14.679
would renounce it.

1061
01:06:14.800 --> 01:06:19.599
Forget everything, Let them do their worst, but leave, leave

1062
01:06:19.639 --> 01:06:20.559
before it's too late.

1063
01:06:22.159 --> 01:06:25.679
If if you could have heard the old man scream

1064
01:06:25.719 --> 01:06:29.280
as I pushed him from the parapet, the crunch of

1065
01:06:29.440 --> 01:06:32.079
his little bones as he fired to the.

1066
01:06:32.039 --> 01:06:35.239
Pas, I perceive the dealing is about to begin. Shall

1067
01:06:35.280 --> 01:06:36.519
we go in?

1068
01:06:37.159 --> 01:06:42.639
Mister mister good if you have any kindness in your soul,

1069
01:06:43.920 --> 01:06:46.480
wish the Ace of Spades for me tonight.

1070
01:06:48.000 --> 01:06:51.519
There's nothing left for me but to die.

1071
01:06:51.840 --> 01:07:00.920
Attention, gentlemen, Three of hearts.

1072
01:07:00.280 --> 01:07:27.880
Queen of Spades, Ace of diamonds.

1073
01:07:16.440 --> 01:07:20.159
Three times around, and mither black aces come up.

1074
01:07:20.880 --> 01:07:25.719
We are just thirteen. They set the table. This fourth round,

1075
01:07:26.840 --> 01:07:29.920
This will, this will tell the tale. And I am

1076
01:07:29.960 --> 01:07:30.960
next to last.

1077
01:07:40.519 --> 01:07:40.920
As.

1078
01:07:42.440 --> 01:07:55.119
Of course, only four more gods.

1079
01:07:57.320 --> 01:07:58.239
King of Spades.

1080
01:08:00.079 --> 01:08:04.880
Oh, pray for me, mister godal pray for me. I

1081
01:08:04.920 --> 01:08:08.079
have one chance in free pray that I get the

1082
01:08:08.159 --> 01:08:11.000
ash sick so.

1083
01:08:11.320 --> 01:08:17.359
Dim, and now I have one chance in two my

1084
01:08:17.560 --> 01:08:19.159
friend don silence.

1085
01:08:22.640 --> 01:08:23.399
Piece of spade.

1086
01:08:24.359 --> 01:08:24.760
Very well.

1087
01:08:25.279 --> 01:08:26.720
That concludes the night's play.

1088
01:08:26.760 --> 01:08:33.359
Gentlemen, Oh, mister Gooddal, I'd give a million if I had.

1089
01:08:33.199 --> 01:08:36.960
It for your luck. I would sell you this card

1090
01:08:37.359 --> 01:08:38.319
much less if I could.

1091
01:08:38.439 --> 01:08:42.079
Well, Well, mister, my congratulations. I am pleased to have

1092
01:08:42.079 --> 01:08:44.159
met yourself and to have been in the position to

1093
01:08:44.159 --> 01:08:47.439
do you. That's trifling service. At least you can't complain

1094
01:08:47.479 --> 01:08:47.920
of delay.

1095
01:08:48.039 --> 01:08:50.079
Yes, yes, And now.

1096
01:08:49.960 --> 01:08:53.000
Before I leave forever, I should like to ask a question,

1097
01:08:53.760 --> 01:08:57.199
a purely hypothetical question, of course, since I am not

1098
01:08:57.239 --> 01:08:59.079
a man to go back upon my word, But you

1099
01:08:59.159 --> 01:09:01.720
wonder what would happen and if you did, if upon

1100
01:09:01.920 --> 01:09:04.079
the turning of the cart you had changed your mind

1101
01:09:04.520 --> 01:09:09.479
and now wish to live precisely, Suppose, my friend Major

1102
01:09:09.479 --> 01:09:13.479
Hammersmith and I elected to ignore our oath. Suppose we

1103
01:09:13.600 --> 01:09:23.079
began by tearing this place apart. You wouldn't even get started.

1104
01:09:23.760 --> 01:09:26.159
The guests themselves are desperate men. But if they did

1105
01:09:26.199 --> 01:09:28.479
not stop you, the servants, who were even more desperate,

1106
01:09:28.520 --> 01:09:33.039
would you would never leave this house alive. I see,

1107
01:09:34.720 --> 01:09:39.479
well it was purely an academic question. Naturally, very well, then,

1108
01:09:40.239 --> 01:09:43.119
quite of my instructions. You will proceed along the strand

1109
01:09:43.119 --> 01:09:45.279
in the direction of the city and the left hand

1110
01:09:45.279 --> 01:09:49.159
pavement until you come upon a black carriage with drawn curtains.

1111
01:09:50.039 --> 01:09:52.039
In this carriage will be the member who has tonight

1112
01:09:52.119 --> 01:09:55.199
drawn the ace of clubs. My executioner, you are collaborator

1113
01:09:55.199 --> 01:09:59.439
on suicide. You will enter the carriage and he will

1114
01:09:59.439 --> 01:10:02.680
continue your instructions. Please have the kindness to obey him

1115
01:10:02.680 --> 01:10:06.199
in every detail. The authority of the club is vested

1116
01:10:06.199 --> 01:10:09.880
in his person for the night. I wish you a

1117
01:10:09.920 --> 01:10:13.399
pleasant walk, Thank you, But first I must say farewell

1118
01:10:13.479 --> 01:10:15.800
to my friend Major Hammersmith. I regret that is strictly

1119
01:10:15.840 --> 01:10:20.640
against the rules. No farewells too disturbing for the still

1120
01:10:20.680 --> 01:10:24.640
living members. You will leave through this side door to

1121
01:10:24.680 --> 01:10:26.920
the workroom, but I must have we won't have any

1122
01:10:26.960 --> 01:10:28.159
trouble now we must have.

1123
01:10:28.159 --> 01:10:34.159
Clone No, no, of course not. You're court and that

1124
01:10:36.119 --> 01:10:43.840
you'll stick. Thank you again. Must have got all. I

1125
01:10:44.000 --> 01:10:54.479
must pleasant walk. It's private door. Why didn't I listen

1126
01:10:54.520 --> 01:10:57.560
to Geraldine before it was too late?

1127
01:11:04.560 --> 01:11:06.159
I heard this.

1128
01:11:08.439 --> 01:11:11.520
My instructions under meet the coach in the strand right now,

1129
01:11:13.079 --> 01:11:20.600
all right, your Highness will pardon the violation of his.

1130
01:11:20.600 --> 01:11:25.760
Person, Geraldine, Oh, my friend, it was quite necessary under

1131
01:11:25.760 --> 01:11:26.680
the circumstances.

1132
01:11:27.279 --> 01:11:29.119
As soon as you turned up the Ace of Spades,

1133
01:11:29.159 --> 01:11:31.399
I slipped out of the house to prepare for your escape.

1134
01:11:31.520 --> 01:11:33.840
But how did you manage it? When I realized I

1135
01:11:33.880 --> 01:11:36.600
could not dissuade you from attending the club? Tonight I

1136
01:11:36.640 --> 01:11:40.800
retained the services of a certain capable and reliable private detective,

1137
01:11:41.039 --> 01:11:44.560
but his secrecy has been bought and paid for. His

1138
01:11:44.720 --> 01:11:47.560
men are now raiding the Suicide Club. The members will

1139
01:11:47.600 --> 01:11:50.439
be removed to your townhouse, where it remains for you

1140
01:11:50.520 --> 01:11:53.239
to pass judgment upon them. That I will gladly do

1141
01:11:53.920 --> 01:11:55.279
and with the utmost dispatch.

1142
01:12:03.760 --> 01:12:06.199
What if they brought us here, for they didn't look

1143
01:12:06.239 --> 01:12:07.439
like Scotland yard meant to me?

1144
01:12:07.720 --> 01:12:09.800
What difference does it make? Perhaps this will be a

1145
01:12:09.880 --> 01:12:10.479
quicker way.

1146
01:12:10.359 --> 01:12:12.000
Out, gentlemen.

1147
01:12:12.600 --> 01:12:15.439
Why that's my friend, Major Smith.

1148
01:12:15.479 --> 01:12:21.920
Is Royal Highness Prince Florizel of Bohemia.

1149
01:12:22.880 --> 01:12:27.279
Don always thought there was something odd about this too.

1150
01:12:28.119 --> 01:12:32.840
Gentlemen, Tonight we have removed you from a house of

1151
01:12:32.920 --> 01:12:37.479
death through a house of life and hope. Those of

1152
01:12:37.520 --> 01:12:40.840
you who have come to your present condition through lack

1153
01:12:40.880 --> 01:12:45.800
of fortune will receive employment and remuneration from my treasury.

1154
01:12:47.479 --> 01:12:50.439
Those who have been driven to this unnatural solution of

1155
01:12:50.479 --> 01:12:55.079
their problems by the agonies of guilt must find amnesty

1156
01:12:55.079 --> 01:12:59.920
from a power greater than mine, power that eternally promises

1157
01:13:00.039 --> 01:13:05.520
the forgiveness of sins, no matter how grievous. Only one

1158
01:13:05.560 --> 01:13:09.479
of you is truly evil, and him I shall deal

1159
01:13:09.520 --> 01:13:10.199
with myself.

1160
01:13:12.520 --> 01:13:16.239
Where is he? Where is the president of the club,

1161
01:13:17.680 --> 01:13:21.119
Colonel Jolda? Quiet? He should be here, your highness begging

1162
01:13:22.880 --> 01:13:23.479
who's this man?

1163
01:13:23.520 --> 01:13:23.880
Jolda?

1164
01:13:24.000 --> 01:13:25.680
The chief of the detectives.

1165
01:13:26.039 --> 01:13:29.520
Yes, but it was you referring to the sallow chap

1166
01:13:29.560 --> 01:13:31.479
with the sawed whiskers and a black suit.

1167
01:13:31.600 --> 01:13:34.479
Yes, that's the one, the president of the suicide Club.

1168
01:13:34.479 --> 01:13:35.720
Where is he the idea?

1169
01:13:36.680 --> 01:13:37.039
Why not?

1170
01:13:37.399 --> 01:13:40.199
Well, when we broke into the little office down there

1171
01:13:40.199 --> 01:13:42.920
at that club, we found him sprawled over the desk

1172
01:13:42.960 --> 01:14:01.560
with a little empty bottle in his hand. He committed suicide.

1173
01:14:03.039 --> 01:14:06.600
Escape is produced and directed by William N. Robson and

1174
01:14:06.680 --> 01:14:09.920
Tonight brought You The young Man with the Cream Tarts

1175
01:14:10.159 --> 01:14:13.760
by Robert Louis Stevenson, adapted for radio by mister Robson,

1176
01:14:14.119 --> 01:14:18.359
with Paul Freeze as Prince Florizelle, Bill Johnstone as Colonel Geraldine,

1177
01:14:18.680 --> 01:14:22.079
and Martin Yarborough as the young Man. The special musical

1178
01:14:22.079 --> 01:14:24.800
score was conceived and conducted by Sifuer.

1179
01:14:27.359 --> 01:14:31.960
Next week, after you've put in a tough day at

1180
01:14:32.000 --> 01:14:35.680
the office, leaning over a hot stove when you are four,

1181
01:14:35.720 --> 01:14:38.439
war seem to be closing in on you. Next week,

1182
01:14:38.479 --> 01:14:40.880
when you want to get away from it all way,

1183
01:14:40.920 --> 01:14:42.600
offer you escape.

1184
01:14:43.119 --> 01:15:03.319
This is CBS, They Columbia Broadcasting System.

1185
01:15:04.680 --> 01:15:09.560
Do you ever wonder, my dear, if you're having a

1186
01:15:09.720 --> 01:15:15.439
memory or a premonition? It can be very hard to

1187
01:15:15.479 --> 01:15:22.640
tell the two apart in my experience. Well, I suppose

1188
01:15:22.680 --> 01:15:27.359
it's no matter. I shouldn't be worrying about the things

1189
01:15:27.479 --> 01:15:36.239
I'm seeing in my mind's eye or what's that? Hm? Well,

1190
01:15:36.279 --> 01:15:40.560
that's an interesting point. I hope, I hope not. But

1191
01:15:41.479 --> 01:15:48.640
perhaps you're right. Perhaps I should try my best to

1192
01:15:48.680 --> 01:16:04.920
move away to forget last night.

1193
01:16:16.359 --> 01:16:27.479
Suspense. This is the Man in Black.

1194
01:16:27.760 --> 01:16:33.039
You're again to introduce Columbia's program Suspense. Heading our Hollywood

cast is a young lady known simply as Margo, whose

1196
01:16:36.640 --> 01:16:39.039

01:16:39.119 --> 01:16:44.560

01:16:48.800 --> 01:16:53.680
hurried and unexplained departure of an important guess appearing with

1200
01:16:53.760 --> 01:16:57.279
Margo as mister Kent Smith, a new comer to our microphone,

1201
01:16:57.640 --> 01:17:01.600
as Gil Blaine, a young man forced by unrelenting circumstances

1202
01:17:01.640 --> 01:17:05.960
into many odd and mysterious actions. Margot will soon be

1203
01:17:06.039 --> 01:17:09.039
seen in Behind the Rising Sun, and Ken Smith is

1204
01:17:09.079 --> 01:17:13.359
currently appearing in This Land Is Mine, both RKO Radio productions.

1205
01:17:14.399 --> 01:17:19.520

01:17:37.880 --> 01:17:39.399
the last possible moment.

1212
01:17:40.039 --> 01:17:41.920
And so it is with the Last Night.

1215
01:17:58.600 --> 01:18:02.199
Lay, Miss Laine. It's late, ain't you bringing on giving

1216
01:18:02.239 --> 01:18:02.680
up at all?

1217
01:18:02.840 --> 01:18:09.159
Huh oh oh, yes, I'll be down in a minutely.

1218
01:18:09.279 --> 01:18:13.880
Owner, go away now.

1219
01:18:16.119 --> 01:18:20.520
I lay there, looking up at the ceiling strange. I

1220
01:18:20.520 --> 01:18:23.920
I hadn't slept well last night. All night I had

1221
01:18:23.960 --> 01:18:30.279
tossed and turned. Worry, That's what it was. Worry. The

1222
01:18:30.319 --> 01:18:33.640
weekend was over and Gil and I hadn't raised the

1223
01:18:33.760 --> 01:18:35.159
twenty five hundred dollars.

1224
01:18:35.720 --> 01:18:38.920
We were right back where we started from, stuck.

1225
01:18:38.600 --> 01:18:40.920
Here in the Hudson Valley, with our dude ranch that

1226
01:18:41.039 --> 01:18:45.159
wasn't paying expenses and the debts piling up like new snow.

1227
01:18:47.279 --> 01:18:50.600
That was Gil in the shower. I lay still and

1228
01:18:50.720 --> 01:18:54.640
listened to the hiss of the water. Poor Gil. It

1229
01:18:54.720 --> 01:18:57.439
had been a tough weekend for him, trying to be

1230
01:18:57.560 --> 01:19:00.319
nice to mister Burrows, neglecting the other guests to play

1231
01:19:00.399 --> 01:19:03.359
up to him, flattering him, agreeing with everything he said.

1232
01:19:04.319 --> 01:19:07.079
That was the use. I knew he'd never lend us

1233
01:19:07.079 --> 01:19:08.399
the money. I knew it from the first.

1234
01:19:09.039 --> 01:19:11.399
I never even wanted to invite him and his secretary up,

1235
01:19:11.439 --> 01:19:14.920
but Gil had pinned his hopes on it. He'd worked

1236
01:19:14.960 --> 01:19:20.159
so hard. I worked funny word to apply to it.

1237
01:19:20.840 --> 01:19:23.239
Maybe if Gil had done some real work now and

1238
01:19:23.279 --> 01:19:31.359
then instead Jackie money, Well, how did you make out?

1239
01:19:32.199 --> 01:19:35.479
How did you make out with mister Burrows? Gil, I'm

1240
01:19:35.560 --> 01:19:39.880
talking to you. Is he still here, mister Burrows?

1241
01:19:40.159 --> 01:19:41.079
Oh? No, he left.

1242
01:19:41.319 --> 01:19:44.680
Well, I'm glad I didn't have to say goodbye to him.

1243
01:19:44.680 --> 01:19:48.239
I got pretty tired of being nice to him, didn't you. Yeah,

1244
01:19:48.439 --> 01:19:49.479
took the eight o'clock train.

1245
01:19:49.880 --> 01:19:51.640
Eight o'clock. He took the milk train.

1246
01:19:51.760 --> 01:19:53.680
The milk train. How do you know?

1247
01:19:54.119 --> 01:19:55.800
I'd broken with the station? That's how I know?

1248
01:19:56.439 --> 01:19:58.319
Well, what were you doing up at that hour?

1249
01:19:58.520 --> 01:20:01.560
Why I hadn't come to bed yet, That's all.

1250
01:20:01.720 --> 01:20:04.279
But what got into him? The milk train? Why that

1251
01:20:04.399 --> 01:20:05.680
hits here about four point thirty.

1252
01:20:05.520 --> 01:20:06.880
In the morning, doesn't it about?

1253
01:20:07.680 --> 01:20:07.880
Well?

1254
01:20:07.960 --> 01:20:10.359
I can't get it into my head. Why they should

1255
01:20:10.399 --> 01:20:11.399
bowld off like that?

1256
01:20:11.439 --> 01:20:13.800
They went alone? The secretary's still here?

1257
01:20:14.600 --> 01:20:16.880
You mean he left without Marsh?

1258
01:20:17.000 --> 01:20:19.039
Yeah, Marsh was up in his room sleeping at the time.

1259
01:20:19.800 --> 01:20:21.439
I guess Borrows didn't want to wait for him.

1260
01:20:21.760 --> 01:20:24.800
He went off and left his secretary behind. Well, now

1261
01:20:25.399 --> 01:20:28.560
that's the strangest thing I ever heard of. Why did

1262
01:20:28.600 --> 01:20:32.079
he bring him in the first place. You you had

1263
01:20:32.119 --> 01:20:34.760
a row with him, Gil, he turned you down, and

1264
01:20:34.840 --> 01:20:35.680
you let it.

1265
01:20:35.720 --> 01:20:36.399
Get the best of you.

1266
01:20:36.600 --> 01:20:37.000
I did not.

1267
01:20:37.279 --> 01:20:39.079
That's why he suddenly decided to leave like that.

1268
01:20:39.199 --> 01:20:41.119
I did not, I tell you, Why should I say

1269
01:20:41.119 --> 01:20:43.600
I didn't If I did, I don't know.

1270
01:20:45.039 --> 01:20:49.000
Everything is so mixed up, Gil, dear, want to toss

1271
01:20:49.039 --> 01:20:49.800
me my dressing gown?

1272
01:20:49.880 --> 01:20:56.359
It's on the chair there here you are, honey. Oh Jackie, yes, Jackie.

1273
01:20:57.439 --> 01:20:58.279
I got it out of him.

1274
01:21:00.399 --> 01:21:05.560
I got the twenty five hundred's skill.

1275
01:21:05.760 --> 01:21:08.800
He he finally gave him when I was driving into

1276
01:21:08.840 --> 01:21:09.159
the station.

1277
01:21:09.399 --> 01:21:10.119
You got all of it.

1278
01:21:10.439 --> 01:21:10.880
It works.

1279
01:21:12.520 --> 01:21:14.920
I didn't think he would. I mean the way he

1280
01:21:15.079 --> 01:21:17.960
was acting, because I know, I know. But he began

1281
01:21:18.039 --> 01:21:20.159
to soften up after you'd gone to bed. When I

1282
01:21:20.239 --> 01:21:21.159
asked him he came through.

1283
01:21:21.399 --> 01:21:23.800
But Gil, you mean, do you mean he carries that

1284
01:21:23.960 --> 01:21:25.159
much cash around with him?

1285
01:21:25.319 --> 01:21:26.039
There? It is, isn't it.

1286
01:21:26.920 --> 01:21:27.520
That's funny?

1287
01:21:27.880 --> 01:21:28.039
You know.

1288
01:21:28.119 --> 01:21:30.079
He came to me only yesterday and asked me where

1289
01:21:30.079 --> 01:21:31.840
he could cast a twenty five dollars check.

1290
01:21:32.159 --> 01:21:36.000
Oh yes, I know about that. I cashed it for him.

1291
01:21:36.199 --> 01:21:39.800
But the twenty five hundred, well, he had that already

1292
01:21:39.840 --> 01:21:42.439
for deposit when he got back to town Monday, couldn't

1293
01:21:42.479 --> 01:21:44.760
get it to the bank on time on Friday. He

1294
01:21:44.800 --> 01:21:46.479
didn't want to touch it, but when I told him

1295
01:21:46.479 --> 01:21:49.640
I'd rather have cash in the check, well he just

1296
01:21:49.720 --> 01:21:51.239
went the whole way and accommodated me.

1297
01:21:51.840 --> 01:21:56.199
Well, if there wasn't any friction, why did he leave

1298
01:21:56.199 --> 01:21:57.520
at such an unearthly hour?

1299
01:21:57.640 --> 01:22:00.960
I don't know, but and I don't care. Oh look, baby,

1300
01:22:01.720 --> 01:22:04.279
we got the money. Let's just be thankful. Well, of

1301
01:22:04.359 --> 01:22:05.359
course I'm thankful.

1302
01:22:05.439 --> 01:22:11.119
It's just a miss Lane, Miss Blaine, you Leona, Well,

1303
01:22:12.000 --> 01:22:14.279
just glad to give you two up, Miss Rose and

1304
01:22:14.359 --> 01:22:16.760
mister Carmers almost finish with the breakfas ain't you too?

1305
01:22:16.840 --> 01:22:21.079
Come here in a minute, Leona? Come on, Gil, let's hurry.

1306
01:22:21.560 --> 01:22:24.039
It's hard enough to get paying guests without neglecting the

1307
01:22:24.119 --> 01:22:24.600
ones we have.

1308
01:22:25.039 --> 01:22:27.119
Why don't fix that mister Blow's room while I was

1309
01:22:27.159 --> 01:22:28.520
waiting for like a Burrow's room.

1310
01:22:28.600 --> 01:22:30.640
But you didn't have to bother. He won't be using

1311
01:22:30.680 --> 01:22:31.159
it anymore.

1312
01:22:31.560 --> 01:22:32.960
You won't know he left.

1313
01:22:33.279 --> 01:22:33.920
You don't laugh?

1314
01:22:33.960 --> 01:22:34.079
Why?

1315
01:22:34.199 --> 01:22:36.520
Yes, Leona, what's the matter?

1316
01:22:37.079 --> 01:22:39.000
And what about all them suits and things you left

1317
01:22:39.039 --> 01:22:40.000
hanging up in the closet?

1318
01:22:40.079 --> 01:22:46.359
Yeah, he's clothes left in the closet. What about that, Gal?

1319
01:22:47.359 --> 01:22:50.159
Well, he he left in an awful hurry. That's all

1320
01:22:50.960 --> 01:22:53.359
eating me alone. Don't let's talk about.

1321
01:22:53.159 --> 01:23:00.680
It, all right, But somehow I feel that's something very

1322
01:23:00.920 --> 01:23:02.520
strange happened last night.

1323
01:23:11.119 --> 01:23:11.760
That's what happened.

1324
01:23:12.479 --> 01:23:14.239
I told him I wouldn't take any more stuff from him.

1325
01:23:14.640 --> 01:23:17.079
Next time he tries, it'll be too bad for him.

1326
01:23:18.000 --> 01:23:20.880
Becomes Gill and Jack have some more eggs?

1327
01:23:20.960 --> 01:23:21.239
Common?

1328
01:23:22.239 --> 01:23:25.079
Hello, Gil, what do you tell.

1329
01:23:24.960 --> 01:23:28.000
Me about why we were just talking about mister Burrows?

1330
01:23:28.119 --> 01:23:31.079
Mister Burrows Like, yeah, mister Carmon had an appointment to

1331
01:23:31.119 --> 01:23:32.199
play golf with him today.

1332
01:23:33.439 --> 01:23:36.520
Yes, fine player, fine player. Oh, by the way, where

1333
01:23:36.640 --> 01:23:39.000
is he? I haven't seen him all morning. He's uh,

1334
01:23:39.479 --> 01:23:41.960
he's not here, not here? Well, what do you mean

1335
01:23:42.199 --> 01:23:45.239
he's left? He left? Yes, can't a guy leave if

1336
01:23:45.279 --> 01:23:47.000
he wants to? Sure? Sure?

1337
01:23:47.079 --> 01:23:49.760
I Well, for one, I'm glad he was an old goat.

1338
01:23:50.279 --> 01:23:51.680
He's mad because he made a pass.

1339
01:23:52.840 --> 01:23:55.359
Well, you didn't like him too early? To Common? Is

1340
01:23:55.479 --> 01:23:57.079
he Common? Had a run in with him back in

1341
01:23:57.159 --> 01:23:58.399
the days of Bootleg Gin.

1342
01:23:59.640 --> 01:24:00.920
Well, not talk about it.

1343
01:24:01.119 --> 01:24:03.359
Gill's right, mister Burrows is gone. Let's forget it.

1344
01:24:03.439 --> 01:24:06.720
What did you say about mister Burrows leaving?

1345
01:24:06.760 --> 01:24:08.800
And we have to go through this again, Gil, Please,

1346
01:24:09.720 --> 01:24:11.680
mister Burrow's left on on early train.

1347
01:24:11.960 --> 01:24:15.279
You're joking. No, no, no, but I don't understand. You're

1348
01:24:15.319 --> 01:24:17.239
a secretary. You ought to know what he's going to do.

1349
01:24:17.840 --> 01:24:22.359
That's right, Gil, I should know. That's why it's so strange.

1350
01:24:23.039 --> 01:24:25.520
He told me we definitely were going to stay until

1351
01:24:25.560 --> 01:24:26.199
this afternoon.

1352
01:24:27.279 --> 01:24:29.359
Well he he changed his mind.

1353
01:24:31.880 --> 01:24:51.359
Say oh, you have to see plain Hello, Missus Blaine.

1354
01:24:51.600 --> 01:24:53.840
Yes, this is missus Burrow. Oh how do you do?

1355
01:24:54.600 --> 01:24:56.600
We were awfully sorry you couldn't come up with mister

1356
01:24:56.640 --> 01:24:57.600
Burrows for the weekend.

1357
01:24:58.159 --> 01:24:58.760
I'm sure you.

1358
01:25:00.279 --> 01:25:01.880
The poma not to let me know he was staying

1359
01:25:01.920 --> 01:25:04.000
over an additional day, and you can tell him so

1360
01:25:04.159 --> 01:25:05.920
for me. I think the least he could have done

1361
01:25:05.960 --> 01:25:08.640
with phone me offend of wire, Missus Burrow. I doubt

1362
01:25:08.680 --> 01:25:10.439
he finds it attractive up there.

1363
01:25:10.920 --> 01:25:13.680
Missus Burrow's wait a minute, he he isn't here anymore.

1364
01:25:13.880 --> 01:25:15.319
He did leave early this morning.

1365
01:25:15.600 --> 01:25:17.199
Early this morning, What do you mean.

1366
01:25:17.159 --> 01:25:19.920
When he took an early train, he should have been

1367
01:25:20.000 --> 01:25:22.960
in at the now let me see at eight thirty

1368
01:25:23.039 --> 01:25:25.520
this morning, eight thirty eight.

1369
01:25:26.479 --> 01:25:28.960
But then where really, why hasn't he come?

1370
01:25:29.119 --> 01:25:31.000
Well, maybe he went directly to his office.

1371
01:25:31.079 --> 01:25:34.279
Oh no, I called his office. They haven't heard from him.

1372
01:25:34.560 --> 01:25:36.000
You see, that's why I'm calling you.

1373
01:25:36.960 --> 01:25:37.119
Oh.

1374
01:25:37.199 --> 01:25:40.520
I don't understand all this. It just seemed that Marsh

1375
01:25:40.560 --> 01:25:42.039
would have yet in touch with me.

1376
01:25:42.560 --> 01:25:44.880
Well, Marsha's still here, Missus Burrows.

1377
01:25:45.239 --> 01:25:46.199
Marshas still there.

1378
01:25:46.319 --> 01:25:48.560
Yes, he went off without Marsh.

1379
01:25:49.760 --> 01:25:49.920
Oh.

1380
01:25:50.680 --> 01:25:52.600
Oh, now I know there's something wrong.

1381
01:25:53.159 --> 01:25:54.199
Why he's never done that?

1382
01:25:54.319 --> 01:25:57.720
We please, please, Missus Burrows. I'm sure there's nothing wrong.

1383
01:25:57.800 --> 01:26:01.439
He's just well. Uh, I better let you talk to Marsh.

1384
01:26:01.560 --> 01:26:04.039
Well, yes, yes, please please get him.

1385
01:26:09.159 --> 01:26:11.800
Mister Marsh. Mister Marsh, Missus Burrows is on the phone.

1386
01:26:11.840 --> 01:26:14.039
She wants to talk to you. Better take the extension

1387
01:26:14.039 --> 01:26:14.680
in the front room.

1388
01:26:14.840 --> 01:26:16.159
All right, she's very upset.

1389
01:26:16.239 --> 01:26:17.119
We have to calm her.

1390
01:26:21.760 --> 01:26:23.680
Hello, Missus Burrows, Marsh is coming.

1391
01:26:23.800 --> 01:26:29.800
Oh, something's wrong, I know it, Yes, Marsh, did you

1392
01:26:29.920 --> 01:26:31.359
know mister Burrows was going to leave.

1393
01:26:31.680 --> 01:26:32.840
No, he didn't say anything to me.

1394
01:26:33.199 --> 01:26:36.039
Well, Missus Blaine says he sept should have been here

1395
01:26:36.199 --> 01:26:36.840
and he isn't.

1396
01:26:36.960 --> 01:26:37.920
Well, I don't know.

1397
01:26:38.479 --> 01:26:39.880
It probably was just the lad.

1398
01:26:40.079 --> 01:26:46.399
Oh, no, No, something happened Charles marsh He had that

1399
01:26:47.840 --> 01:26:50.359
that important package in his inside pocket?

1400
01:26:50.520 --> 01:26:50.800
He did.

1401
01:26:51.079 --> 01:26:53.680
Yes, Oh, I don't know what to do. Should I

1402
01:26:53.760 --> 01:26:54.399
call the police?

1403
01:26:54.439 --> 01:26:55.000
The police?

1404
01:26:55.359 --> 01:26:58.600
But that's not Necessary's right? Let me take care of it.

1405
01:26:58.920 --> 01:27:00.680
I wait a few hours and he hasn't shown up

1406
01:27:00.680 --> 01:27:00.880
by that?

1407
01:27:01.039 --> 01:27:01.479
Oh right?

1408
01:27:01.680 --> 01:27:02.479
Do what do you think that?

1409
01:27:04.159 --> 01:27:04.399
Hello?

1410
01:27:05.119 --> 01:27:05.359
Hello?

1411
01:27:06.319 --> 01:27:06.760
She hung out?

1412
01:27:06.760 --> 01:27:07.520
Missus blame.

1413
01:27:09.399 --> 01:27:14.000
Important pathet, the twenty five hundred dollars, the twenty five

1414
01:27:14.119 --> 01:27:15.039
hundred gil god?

1415
01:27:16.159 --> 01:27:17.239
Oh kill.

1416
01:27:24.399 --> 01:27:25.359
That is missus Burrows.

1417
01:27:25.359 --> 01:27:26.319
She was awfully upset.

1418
01:27:26.920 --> 01:27:29.159
Didn't show up. She wants me to call the police.

1419
01:27:29.880 --> 01:27:31.359
Oh, now, wait a minute, you don't have to call

1420
01:27:31.399 --> 01:27:34.479
the police. Why shouldn't I call the police? After all,

1421
01:27:34.640 --> 01:27:35.880
mister Burrows is missing.

1422
01:27:36.000 --> 01:27:38.680
Oh he may show up yet, certainly he may show

1423
01:27:38.760 --> 01:27:40.439
up yet, Common's right, you don't have to call the

1424
01:27:40.479 --> 01:27:40.960
police now.

1425
01:27:41.520 --> 01:27:45.119
And why don't you want the police? Oh? Why there's

1426
01:27:45.239 --> 01:27:46.640
something strange here?

1427
01:27:46.680 --> 01:27:47.119
All right?

1428
01:27:47.239 --> 01:27:50.079
Why didn't mister Burrow say a word to me about leaving?

1429
01:27:50.239 --> 01:27:52.720
So you were asleep? I guess he didn't want to waken.

1430
01:27:53.199 --> 01:27:55.239
I've never known him to be considerate in my life.

1431
01:27:55.319 --> 01:27:56.640
I suppose he knew what he was doing.

1432
01:27:56.760 --> 01:28:00.359
I'm not so sure. What do you mean what he

1433
01:28:00.520 --> 01:28:03.239
was doing? Why did he leave his return ticket on

1434
01:28:03.319 --> 01:28:03.840
the dresser?

1435
01:28:04.079 --> 01:28:13.159
A strange silence fell over the entire group. Marsh was suspicious.

1436
01:28:13.880 --> 01:28:16.359
Soon he would call the police, and I had a

1437
01:28:16.479 --> 01:28:18.840
strong feeling that gil knew more about this than he

1438
01:28:18.960 --> 01:28:19.199
let on.

1439
01:28:20.600 --> 01:28:23.159
After breakfast, the group broke up and I.

1440
01:28:23.239 --> 01:28:24.960
Stayed to help me on it clear the table, and

1441
01:28:25.079 --> 01:28:27.520
I saw Gill and calm and walk out on the porch.

1442
01:28:27.399 --> 01:28:36.000
Together cigarette Gill. Yeah, thanks man, here a fine morning.

1443
01:28:36.359 --> 01:28:38.079
So you can't ask me out here to speak about

1444
01:28:38.079 --> 01:28:41.359
the weather. No, no, I didn't. I want the money

1445
01:28:41.399 --> 01:28:43.960
you wore me. Yeah, that's what I thought. It was

1446
01:28:44.000 --> 01:28:46.640
too long ago with he interested adds up to twenty

1447
01:28:46.720 --> 01:28:50.800
five hundred. I can't pay you now. Why not? You

1448
01:28:50.880 --> 01:28:51.800
said you'd pay it today.

1449
01:28:52.039 --> 01:28:54.119
Well it's not that I haven't got it, it's it's

1450
01:28:54.319 --> 01:28:58.439
what well, it's well, everything's so mixed up.

1451
01:28:58.520 --> 01:29:02.279
Now you can know you means disappearance. Look, give me

1452
01:29:02.319 --> 01:29:05.600
another twenty four hours, I'd like to Gill, but it

1453
01:29:05.680 --> 01:29:08.000
comes Jackie, all right, twenty four hours and no more.

1454
01:29:08.560 --> 01:29:10.680
I'm sorry if I'm interrupting something important.

1455
01:29:10.840 --> 01:29:12.960
Oh no, no, you're just talking about the weather.

1456
01:29:13.239 --> 01:29:14.239
It is lovely, isn't this?

1457
01:29:14.479 --> 01:29:16.680
Yeah? Well, I better get up to the golf course.

1458
01:29:16.960 --> 01:29:18.800
Oh say, Gil, could you lend me the car to

1459
01:29:18.920 --> 01:29:21.039
drive up? It's pretty far and I'll do plenty of

1460
01:29:21.079 --> 01:29:22.800
walking when I get there. Well, as a matter of fact,

1461
01:29:22.840 --> 01:29:26.640
common I'm going to use it myself. Oh well, in

1462
01:29:26.800 --> 01:29:28.319
that case, I had better stop walking.

1463
01:29:28.640 --> 01:29:28.960
So long.

1464
01:29:29.159 --> 01:29:29.560
Goodbye.

1465
01:29:32.800 --> 01:29:34.239
He was after the money, wasn't he?

1466
01:29:34.840 --> 01:29:36.520
Yeah, but I didn't give it to him?

1467
01:29:36.720 --> 01:29:40.000
Why not, mister Burrows gave it to you and we

1468
01:29:40.159 --> 01:29:40.920
do owe it to come.

1469
01:29:41.079 --> 01:29:42.479
Can't you leave me alone for a minute?

1470
01:29:42.640 --> 01:29:43.399
Say you two?

1471
01:29:43.640 --> 01:29:45.760
Why the brown? Hello, miss Robel. I don't want to

1472
01:29:45.800 --> 01:29:48.199
interrupt a private fight, so I'll stake my business quickly.

1473
01:29:48.720 --> 01:29:49.640
How about lending me the car?

1474
01:29:49.720 --> 01:29:49.920
Gil?

1475
01:29:49.920 --> 01:29:50.399
I want to try.

1476
01:29:50.399 --> 01:29:52.920
I'm sorry, Miss Robules, but I needed I'm driving into

1477
01:29:53.000 --> 01:29:54.520
town and right now.

1478
01:30:00.079 --> 01:30:02.680
Kill drove off. The rest of the day went by

1479
01:30:02.800 --> 01:30:03.399
in a haze.

1480
01:30:04.119 --> 01:30:07.039
Hill didn't come back. He stayed away all day without

1481
01:30:07.079 --> 01:30:11.399
even phoning me. He had never done that before. It

1482
01:30:11.560 --> 01:30:14.520
almost seemed as though he avoided me intentionally.

1483
01:30:15.520 --> 01:30:18.279
Good evening, as I was putting the finishing touches on dinner,

1484
01:30:18.760 --> 01:30:19.479
Leona came.

1485
01:30:19.479 --> 01:30:19.760
Up to me.

1486
01:30:20.359 --> 01:30:21.960
Here's a man you'd seen, miss Blaine?

1487
01:30:22.000 --> 01:30:25.039
Burs He in the front room. Well er, who is it?

1488
01:30:25.560 --> 01:30:27.079
Somebody I ain't never seen before?

1489
01:30:27.680 --> 01:30:30.880
All right, I talked to him. You look after things here?

1490
01:30:30.960 --> 01:30:31.920
Leonor Yes, I'm.

1491
01:30:31.760 --> 01:30:37.119
Away, good evening.

1492
01:30:37.880 --> 01:30:38.800
My name's Ward.

1493
01:30:39.039 --> 01:30:40.920
I'm missus Blaine. You wanted to see me.

1494
01:30:41.199 --> 01:30:43.239
I wanted to have a few words with mister Blaine.

1495
01:30:43.840 --> 01:30:46.039
Oh, I see what was it about?

1496
01:30:46.119 --> 01:30:49.800
You know what it's about. It's about Burroughs. His office

1497
01:30:49.840 --> 01:30:53.119
sent me down. Mister Burrows. I got about him. He

1498
01:30:53.239 --> 01:30:54.399
was a guest here, wasn't he?

1499
01:30:54.880 --> 01:30:55.079
Yes?

1500
01:30:55.520 --> 01:30:56.920
When did he leave last night?

1501
01:30:57.000 --> 01:30:58.439
My husband drove him to the station?

1502
01:30:58.840 --> 01:30:59.199
Really?

1503
01:31:00.119 --> 01:31:02.880
How interesting? What do you mean we happen to know

1504
01:31:03.000 --> 01:31:05.399
that he never got on that train? I thought maybe

1505
01:31:05.439 --> 01:31:07.399
your husband could tell me a few things i'd.

1506
01:31:07.279 --> 01:31:07.600
Like to know.

1507
01:31:08.920 --> 01:31:10.880
I'll see if he's here just a moment.

1508
01:31:11.800 --> 01:31:14.159
I'd also like to see some of the other guests.

1509
01:31:14.359 --> 01:31:17.520
Well, I'm sorry, but nobody's here just now. Mister Roberts

1510
01:31:17.600 --> 01:31:18.840
is out walking, and mister.

1511
01:31:18.720 --> 01:31:25.319
Carmen has Carmon Carmen short fat Italian? Why is how

1512
01:31:25.359 --> 01:31:28.039
did you know mister Burrows always ran into him before?

1513
01:31:29.359 --> 01:31:30.760
Now I'd like to see your husband.

1514
01:31:31.159 --> 01:31:33.800
Please sit down. I'll see if I can find him.

1515
01:31:33.920 --> 01:31:41.760
Thank you, Yes, Miss Blake.

1516
01:31:41.840 --> 01:31:44.199
Has mister Gil come back yet, No, ma'am I seen

1517
01:31:44.239 --> 01:31:45.479
him since he drove off his mom.

1518
01:31:45.560 --> 01:31:49.239
I see, well, tell the gentleman to wait. I'm going

1519
01:31:49.279 --> 01:32:02.199
out on the veranda. I went out on the veranda,

1520
01:32:02.960 --> 01:32:03.199
up and.

1521
01:32:03.319 --> 01:32:05.159
Down the length of the porch and back again.

1522
01:32:05.199 --> 01:32:08.279
I walked, my eyes glued to the dark highway that

1523
01:32:08.399 --> 01:32:11.399
ran past the house, hoping against hope that Gil would

1524
01:32:11.439 --> 01:32:12.079
show up before the.

1525
01:32:12.119 --> 01:32:13.359
Detective came looking for me.

1526
01:32:14.760 --> 01:32:18.640
Gil had the twenty five hundred on him, Burrough's, his cash,

1527
01:32:19.199 --> 01:32:20.439
that important package.

1528
01:32:20.479 --> 01:32:22.119
Missus Burrow spoke of to Marsh.

1529
01:32:22.800 --> 01:32:26.840
I had to see Gil first, And suddenly I saw

1530
01:32:26.880 --> 01:32:30.319
a car speeding down the road, Gill's car, I could.

1531
01:32:30.199 --> 01:32:32.680
Tell by the one dim headlight. It toiled through the

1532
01:32:32.840 --> 01:32:37.239
dark at top speed, then swerved through our gate and

1533
01:32:37.319 --> 01:32:38.079
into the garage.

1534
01:32:38.479 --> 01:32:40.920
I was about to run down the steps when another

1535
01:32:41.000 --> 01:32:42.720
pair of headlights split the gilm of the highway.

1536
01:32:43.159 --> 01:32:45.479
As the car came on, I recognized the taxi from town.

1537
01:32:49.760 --> 01:32:50.880
A figure climbed.

1538
01:32:50.600 --> 01:32:53.560
Out quickly, Gil Tacky, did you see the car?

1539
01:32:53.920 --> 01:32:54.079
Car?

1540
01:32:54.520 --> 01:32:54.680
Yes?

1541
01:32:54.760 --> 01:32:55.000
Gil?

1542
01:32:55.279 --> 01:32:57.359
It went on the garage was driving it.

1543
01:32:57.479 --> 01:32:59.720
Well, I couldn't see body, is it, Gilly?

1544
01:32:59.760 --> 01:32:59.800
You?

1545
01:32:59.880 --> 01:33:01.600
And no time to talk? No time to talk?

1546
01:33:01.640 --> 01:33:03.520
Where are you going with you?

1547
01:33:06.159 --> 01:33:17.159
The doors are closed? Hey, there nobody here, anyone in

1548
01:33:17.239 --> 01:33:22.680
the car? No, whoever it was beat it. Oh, I'd

1549
01:33:22.800 --> 01:33:23.720
like to know who it was.

1550
01:33:24.279 --> 01:33:24.520
Gil.

1551
01:33:25.560 --> 01:33:27.520
I don't understand what this is all about.

1552
01:33:27.840 --> 01:33:32.279
Frankly, I don't either. I Well, that is I was

1553
01:33:32.359 --> 01:33:34.760
parked in front of the store in town. I came

1554
01:33:34.800 --> 01:33:36.680
out and saw somebody hop in my car and drive

1555
01:33:36.760 --> 01:33:37.359
off like mad.

1556
01:33:37.560 --> 01:33:38.000
I thought.

1557
01:33:38.359 --> 01:33:40.520
I don't know whether he was after but I don't

1558
01:33:40.520 --> 01:33:42.560
think he got it. I chased the car all the

1559
01:33:42.600 --> 01:33:44.399
way here in the taxi. I saw it coming down

1560
01:33:44.439 --> 01:33:44.720
the road.

1561
01:33:44.760 --> 01:33:45.359
I thought it was you.

1562
01:33:45.760 --> 01:33:55.279
Well, let's go back to the house, Gil. Yes, Gil,

1563
01:33:55.319 --> 01:33:58.079
there's somebody here to see you. A man named Ward Ward.

1564
01:33:58.600 --> 01:34:00.000
Who's he? What does he want?

1565
01:34:00.520 --> 01:34:04.039
He wants to talk to you about burrs. He's a detective.

1566
01:34:04.520 --> 01:34:08.119
Oh and you'd better let me have the wallet with

1567
01:34:08.239 --> 01:34:09.840
the money, just to be on the safegun.

1568
01:34:09.960 --> 01:34:10.079
Oh.

1569
01:34:10.119 --> 01:34:12.239
Look, I don't want you mixed up in any be

1570
01:34:12.239 --> 01:34:17.520
all right, Please give it to me. Well, okay, now

1571
01:34:17.560 --> 01:34:18.159
you'll have to go in.

1572
01:34:18.239 --> 01:34:18.840
And talk to him.

1573
01:34:19.000 --> 01:34:20.439
Yeah, I suppose.

1574
01:34:20.520 --> 01:34:25.760
So I went up to my room and lay there

1575
01:34:25.800 --> 01:34:29.640
in the dark, trying to distinguish the murmur of voices

1576
01:34:29.680 --> 01:34:33.079
from below. But all I could hear was a blur

1577
01:34:33.279 --> 01:34:33.960
of sound.

1578
01:34:34.880 --> 01:34:35.239
I got.

1579
01:34:38.079 --> 01:34:38.239
Time.

1580
01:34:38.279 --> 01:34:39.319
It'll be too bad for him.

1581
01:34:41.600 --> 01:34:42.359
He's not gonna hurry.

1582
01:34:42.479 --> 01:34:43.000
Let me along.

1583
01:34:43.920 --> 01:34:45.720
Why don't you want the police? Why don't you want

1584
01:34:45.760 --> 01:34:46.159
the police?

1585
01:34:46.319 --> 01:34:47.479
Why don't you want the police?

1586
01:34:53.279 --> 01:34:55.279
Jackie? Wait?

1587
01:34:55.600 --> 01:34:59.479
Yes here, sit down, Gil, You look tired.

1588
01:35:00.439 --> 01:35:05.520
I am very What did Ward say that much? But

1589
01:35:05.640 --> 01:35:10.840
I know he's suspicious. He's going to stay tonight. Oh well,

1590
01:35:11.039 --> 01:35:13.199
let's get to bed now. I'm tired.

1591
01:35:16.479 --> 01:35:16.640
Oh.

1592
01:35:18.159 --> 01:35:19.920
Oh, by the way, did you see the King of

1593
01:35:19.960 --> 01:35:20.520
the rubble steed?

1594
01:35:20.960 --> 01:35:22.000
The King of the rumble seat?

1595
01:35:22.960 --> 01:35:30.399
No, mister Gloucester. M good night.

1596
01:35:33.399 --> 01:35:33.640
Gil.

1597
01:35:35.319 --> 01:35:39.039
You've never told me, You've never told me one way

1598
01:35:39.119 --> 01:35:42.760
or the other. Can You've got to tell me?

1599
01:35:45.039 --> 01:35:48.159
It's all right? All right, Jackie? I Will.

1600
01:35:49.560 --> 01:35:52.960
Burrows never gave me the twenty five hundred. He refused me.

1601
01:35:54.000 --> 01:35:57.800
We quarreled, and I was mad. I suppose he was

1602
01:35:57.800 --> 01:35:59.640
afraid of me, afraid of what I might do to

1603
01:35:59.720 --> 01:36:03.720
him anyway, That's why he left so suddenly made me

1604
01:36:03.840 --> 01:36:04.600
drive him to the station.

1605
01:36:04.960 --> 01:36:06.279
Did you see him get on the train?

1606
01:36:06.640 --> 01:36:06.680
No.

1607
01:36:07.000 --> 01:36:10.199
I left him at the station, left my car there

1608
01:36:10.279 --> 01:36:13.520
and walked down the street. I was sore and I

1609
01:36:13.640 --> 01:36:16.600
had to think. I heard the train come and go,

1610
01:36:17.359 --> 01:36:21.039
and when I went back, Burrows was gone. I got

1611
01:36:21.079 --> 01:36:22.800
in the car and drove home.

1612
01:36:22.960 --> 01:36:26.079
And the twenty five hundred I lied when he said

1613
01:36:26.079 --> 01:36:26.880
he had that cash.

1614
01:36:27.640 --> 01:36:28.680
Then where did you get it?

1615
01:36:29.239 --> 01:36:31.600
Remember the twenty five dollar check I cash for him.

1616
01:36:32.520 --> 01:36:36.520
Yes, I added two zeros after the twenty five, Oh, Gil,

1617
01:36:37.119 --> 01:36:39.239
I rode in the word hundred. There was a space

1618
01:36:39.279 --> 01:36:42.880
where it made the water. Then I cashed it, Gil Gil.

1619
01:36:43.359 --> 01:36:46.079
I know I am low Jackie, but I didn't kill him.

1620
01:36:46.359 --> 01:36:46.840
I didn't.

1621
01:36:46.880 --> 01:36:48.000
Then what became of him?

1622
01:36:48.000 --> 01:36:48.439
Where is he?

1623
01:36:48.800 --> 01:36:54.600
I don't know. I wish I did. But what somebody's

1624
01:36:54.640 --> 01:36:56.439
out there, whoever it is, is trying to open the

1625
01:36:56.479 --> 01:36:57.039
garage door.

1626
01:36:57.920 --> 01:37:00.439
I can't see who it is. It's not a woman,

1627
01:37:00.600 --> 01:37:02.079
not Miss Roubles. I can see that much.

1628
01:37:02.319 --> 01:37:10.560
It could be common. What are you doing in that drawer,

1629
01:37:10.880 --> 01:37:11.680
just getting this gun?

1630
01:37:12.199 --> 01:37:15.279
Not no, Gil, give me that gun. You can't shoot

1631
01:37:15.319 --> 01:37:17.720
anybody in the dark like that. I'm going to turn

1632
01:37:17.760 --> 01:37:18.159
all the lights.

1633
01:37:18.279 --> 01:37:21.840
Oh Jackie is Gil? He's running away gone.

1634
01:37:22.439 --> 01:37:22.960
Who was it?

1635
01:37:23.479 --> 01:37:27.279
I couldn't see, could you? No, Gil No, it just

1636
01:37:27.600 --> 01:37:31.000
means waiting until the next time. Oh Jackie, what am

1637
01:37:31.039 --> 01:37:31.520
I going to do?

1638
01:37:31.720 --> 01:37:33.960
I don't know, dear, but we'll get out of it somehow.

1639
01:37:34.199 --> 01:37:36.439
How I'm all mixed up.

1640
01:37:37.039 --> 01:37:41.920
There's one clear thing. Somebody is awfully interested in that car.

1641
01:37:47.199 --> 01:37:50.600
I lay awake until the sun was up. Then a shallow,

1642
01:37:50.720 --> 01:37:54.840
feverish sleep came, and when I awoke it was almost evening.

1643
01:37:55.880 --> 01:37:59.359
Girl's bed was empty. There were the indistinct sounds of

1644
01:37:59.439 --> 01:38:02.479
life in the house below. I rose, and as my

1645
01:38:02.600 --> 01:38:06.079
mind cleared, my words of the night before broke through

1646
01:38:06.119 --> 01:38:07.560
the edges of my consciousness.

1647
01:38:09.199 --> 01:38:10.359
There's one clear thing.

1648
01:38:11.640 --> 01:38:14.319
Somebody is awfully interested in that car.

1649
01:38:17.600 --> 01:38:22.600
I dressed slowly, tantalizing thought hovered just beyond my grasp

1650
01:38:23.520 --> 01:38:23.880
the car.

1651
01:38:24.920 --> 01:38:26.199
What was there about the car?

1652
01:38:29.279 --> 01:38:32.159
I slowly walked down the hallway, my eyes half closed,

1653
01:38:32.960 --> 01:38:36.239
thinking I had to talk to Gil.

1654
01:38:39.640 --> 01:38:43.039
Leona, Leona, Yes, where's mister Gil?

1655
01:38:43.199 --> 01:38:45.119
Well he done went to town, mister Walls, he went

1656
01:38:45.199 --> 01:38:48.000
with Ward. Yes, right after breakfast. Mister Carmon gave him

1657
01:38:48.000 --> 01:38:50.880
a lift down and Harmon, Oh yes, good, mister Gill.

1658
01:38:50.920 --> 01:38:51.880
He don't left you his note.

1659
01:38:51.920 --> 01:38:57.359
Oh, let me see it, Jackie. I've gone downtown with Ward.

1660
01:38:57.840 --> 01:39:02.239
I'm going to tell him, tell him about the check.

1661
01:39:03.600 --> 01:39:09.399
Whatever happens will have to happen. No, Gil no, Gil No,

1662
01:39:10.439 --> 01:39:11.319
I've got to stop him.

1663
01:39:11.359 --> 01:39:12.399
I'm going to drive to town.

1664
01:39:21.159 --> 01:39:23.800
I've got to get there to fork kill mister Blaine,

1665
01:39:24.399 --> 01:39:25.760
missus Blaine, where.

1666
01:39:25.640 --> 01:39:26.000
Are you going?

1667
01:39:26.000 --> 01:39:27.159
I'm going to town, mister Marshell.

1668
01:39:27.199 --> 01:39:27.840
May I come along?

1669
01:39:28.000 --> 01:39:28.159
Well?

1670
01:39:28.199 --> 01:39:31.359
I oh, I suppose, so hurry up and.

1671
01:39:31.359 --> 01:39:31.640
Get in.

1672
01:39:48.720 --> 01:39:49.279
Getting dark?

1673
01:39:49.560 --> 01:39:52.399
Yes, I hope you don't mind me driving so fast.

1674
01:39:52.399 --> 01:39:53.520
I'm in a terrible hurry.

1675
01:39:53.720 --> 01:39:58.039
No, pull down the next side road, I said, pulled

1676
01:39:58.079 --> 01:40:00.960
down the next side road, Yes, a gun.

1677
01:40:01.119 --> 01:40:03.600
Now, do as I say. There's something in this car

1678
01:40:03.800 --> 01:40:04.239
I want.

1679
01:40:04.680 --> 01:40:05.159
I won't.

1680
01:40:05.920 --> 01:40:06.840
I must get to kill.

1681
01:40:07.720 --> 01:40:08.600
Let go that wheel.

1682
01:40:09.439 --> 01:40:11.800
Let go that wheel, I said, there's something here I want.

1683
01:40:12.000 --> 01:40:12.800
There's a car coming.

1684
01:40:13.159 --> 01:40:13.439
Let go.

1685
01:40:22.439 --> 01:40:27.800
I tried to move. Miraculously we were alive. The other

1686
01:40:27.880 --> 01:40:29.279
car had kareem beyond us.

1687
01:40:29.359 --> 01:40:29.840
Up the road.

1688
01:40:31.039 --> 01:40:34.399
I saw that the side was snatched in, and I

1689
01:40:34.479 --> 01:40:35.359
heard Marsh's voice.

1690
01:40:35.439 --> 01:40:37.479
I ought to kill you for this. That was a

1691
01:40:37.520 --> 01:40:38.079
police car.

1692
01:40:38.520 --> 01:40:41.000
Keep your mouth shut here he comes now now Remember

1693
01:40:41.600 --> 01:40:43.279
there's a gun pointing at your back.

1694
01:40:44.199 --> 01:40:46.960
Hey, you maniacs, what's the idea trying to kill somebody?

1695
01:40:47.039 --> 01:40:49.640
I'm sorry, officer. We have a little trouble with the

1696
01:40:49.680 --> 01:40:51.760
steering wheel, and you won't have any more trouble with it.

1697
01:40:52.000 --> 01:40:53.039
It's the end of your license.

1698
01:40:53.039 --> 01:40:55.319
I'll see here, Officer. I'm in a terrible hurry if you,

1699
01:40:55.439 --> 01:40:57.720
if you let me drive to the station. Wait a minute, buddy,

1700
01:40:58.159 --> 01:40:59.359

1701
01:40:59.439 --> 01:40:59.600
Want?

1702

Marsh? Charles Marsh? What's yours? Lady?

1703
01:41:03.960 --> 01:41:06.800
This is Gilbert Lane and and yours?

1704
01:41:08.000 --> 01:41:09.680
Well, come on, what's yours? What's your name?

1705
01:41:09.920 --> 01:41:10.840
Who are you talking to?

1706
01:41:11.279 --> 01:41:13.199
A guy in the rumble seat? The rumble seeds?

1707
01:41:13.520 --> 01:41:14.239
Mister Burrus?

1708
01:41:16.000 --> 01:41:18.640
Oh it's Burrows, is it? Why don't you say so?

1709
01:41:19.560 --> 01:41:19.720
Hey?

1710
01:41:19.800 --> 01:41:20.800
What are you a wise guy?

1711
01:41:20.880 --> 01:41:21.800
Sitting there like a mummy?

1712
01:41:22.600 --> 01:41:23.399
Come on answer me?

1713
01:41:23.479 --> 01:41:26.119
Will you wait a minute?

1714
01:41:26.479 --> 01:41:27.279
This guy's dead.

1715
01:41:29.039 --> 01:41:29.479
You did this.

1716
01:41:30.079 --> 01:41:32.000
The rumble seats threw open when we crashed off.

1717
01:41:32.279 --> 01:41:32.800
He's got a gun.

1718
01:41:33.159 --> 01:41:33.880
He murdered that man.

1719
01:41:34.000 --> 01:41:39.840
I'm runing. You keep back or that takes care of him.

1720
01:41:40.680 --> 01:41:45.079
All right now, sister, yes, I'm all right now.

1721
01:41:54.560 --> 01:41:57.199
Well, that job's finished. Nothing left for me to do

1722
01:41:57.359 --> 01:41:58.199
but go back to town.

1723
01:41:58.399 --> 01:41:59.920
So it was Marsh after all.

1724
01:42:00.199 --> 01:42:02.079
Yeah, I don't understand why he.

1725
01:42:02.239 --> 01:42:06.039
Was contemplating a change from secretary to husband. Naturally, with

1726
01:42:06.199 --> 01:42:09.000
mister Burrow's dead, Missus Burrows would inherit all the money.

1727
01:42:09.479 --> 01:42:09.920
I see.

1728
01:42:10.319 --> 01:42:13.359
Marsh followed Gil and mister Burrows that night to the station.

1729
01:42:14.119 --> 01:42:17.520
Gil was gone. He killed Burrows, stuffing him into ramble seat,

1730
01:42:17.560 --> 01:42:18.680
locked it and kept the key.

1731
01:42:18.720 --> 01:42:20.720
Well, the thing I don't understand is why Marsh kept

1732
01:42:20.760 --> 01:42:22.760
fiddling with the car. What was it that he wanted?

1733
01:42:22.800 --> 01:42:24.439
It seems to be he was in the clear if

1734
01:42:24.439 --> 01:42:25.439
he left well enough alone.

1735
01:42:25.560 --> 01:42:28.960
Eh, that's what tripped him up. Remember when he talked

1736
01:42:28.960 --> 01:42:31.239
to Missus Burrows on the phone. They said something about

1737
01:42:31.239 --> 01:42:32.720
an important package.

1738
01:42:32.359 --> 01:42:35.039
For Yes, I assumed it to be the twenty five hundred.

1739
01:42:35.119 --> 01:42:37.119
Gil told me about it, but of course it wasn't.

1740
01:42:37.800 --> 01:42:39.800
There was a package of letters that mister Burrows had

1741
01:42:39.800 --> 01:42:40.399
gotten hold of.

1742
01:42:40.520 --> 01:42:42.640
I get it. Those letters were written by Marsh to

1743
01:42:42.760 --> 01:42:43.880
Missus Burrows.

1744
01:42:43.600 --> 01:42:46.560
Right, and they would incriminate him. He found out about

1745
01:42:46.560 --> 01:42:47.439
them after the murder.

1746
01:42:47.600 --> 01:42:49.800
Right again. Oh, he had to get them to make

1747
01:42:49.840 --> 01:42:54.640
it perfect. Well, I guess I'll shove off so long

1748
01:42:54.800 --> 01:42:55.680
and thanks.

1749
01:42:56.920 --> 01:42:57.760
Oh, by the.

1750
01:42:57.760 --> 01:43:01.640
Way, you may want to DePass that you say twenty

1751
01:43:01.680 --> 01:43:04.119
five hundred dollars to mister Burrow's account.

1752
01:43:04.479 --> 01:43:10.680
Yeah, I see what you mean. Thanks, goodbye, Jackie.

1753
01:43:11.960 --> 01:43:15.239
Yes that there's still twenty five hundred dollars that have

1754
01:43:15.279 --> 01:43:16.159
to come from somewhere.

1755
01:43:17.000 --> 01:43:18.800
He went a long way around to get right back

1756
01:43:18.840 --> 01:43:21.600
where we started from. We come through all that trouble

1757
01:43:21.720 --> 01:43:22.520
and end up broke.

1758
01:43:23.119 --> 01:43:44.279
Yes, Darling, that's the way it ends, And so.

1759
01:43:44.479 --> 01:43:49.039
Closes the story called Last Night starring Margo and Kent Smith,

1760
01:43:49.319 --> 01:43:53.840
Tonight's tale of Suspense. This is your narrator, the Man

1761
01:43:53.920 --> 01:43:57.000
in Black, who conveys to you Columbia's invitation to spend

1762
01:43:57.079 --> 01:43:59.880
this half hour in suspense with us again next Tuesday,

1763
01:44:00.319 --> 01:44:03.159
when John Sutton and George Zuko, the star in the

1764
01:44:03.199 --> 01:44:07.319
suspense play by John Dixon Carr called The Man Without

1765
01:44:07.359 --> 01:44:11.199
a Body. Producer of these broadcasts is William Spear, with

1766
01:44:11.319 --> 01:44:15.119
Ted Blister, director Lat Gluskin, and Lucian Mahowick conductor and composer,

1767
01:44:15.479 --> 01:44:20.479
and Cornell will Rich the Offer collaborated on Tonight's suspense.

1768
01:44:24.479 --> 01:44:29.119
This is CBS, the Columbia Broadcasting System.

1769
01:44:45.279 --> 01:44:48.720
Well, my dear, I hope I didn't make you too

1770
01:44:49.640 --> 01:44:56.319
nervous with my musings. Well, I do like to prattle

1771
01:44:56.399 --> 01:45:03.439
on and wonder and wander. But of course now is

1772
01:45:03.560 --> 01:45:10.800
the time for some kind of exploration, some kind of discovery,

1773
01:45:10.880 --> 01:45:17.600
I suppose. But then again, the more time passes, the

1774
01:45:17.720 --> 01:45:23.079
more I wonder. Is trying to understand all of this,

1775
01:45:24.359 --> 01:45:31.119
all of these moments and quirks. Is it simply fool's gold?

1776
01:45:32.840 --> 01:45:53.439
Have you heard the strange tales of the Whistler? I'm

1777
01:45:53.880 --> 01:46:02.159
the whistler. My plan is found mathmatically sound, it cannot fail.

1778
01:46:02.239 --> 01:46:02.920
It's perfect.

1779
01:46:03.720 --> 01:46:07.600
Three months from now I will be worth fifty thousand dollars,

1780
01:46:08.279 --> 01:46:09.840
independent for life.

1781
01:46:14.279 --> 01:46:17.720
Another Sunday night, and again CBS presents the Whistler.

1782
01:46:21.920 --> 01:46:22.239
II.

1783
01:46:22.399 --> 01:46:25.880
The Whistler know many things, or I walk by night.

1784
01:46:26.920 --> 01:46:30.520
I know many strange tales, many secrets hidden in the

1785
01:46:30.600 --> 01:46:33.479
hearts of men and women who have stepped into the shadows.

1786
01:46:34.680 --> 01:46:37.279
And so I tell you tonight the amazing tale of

1787
01:46:38.159 --> 01:46:44.079
Fool's Gold. Herbert Laying is chief teller of the Amalgamated Bank.

1788
01:46:44.680 --> 01:46:47.640
A thrifty man of forty three, Herbert has been an

1789
01:46:47.640 --> 01:46:50.399
employee a small Surah for over twenty years.

1790
01:46:50.960 --> 01:46:52.039
Honest and punctual.

1791
01:46:52.159 --> 01:46:53.800
His reputation is above reproach.

1792
01:46:54.640 --> 01:46:58.800
Herbert is thin, slightly bald, bespectacled, and unmarried.

1793
01:46:59.439 --> 01:47:02.199
Herbert is a poor man, but he has a plan.

1794
01:47:02.399 --> 01:47:05.439
He won't always be poor because he's developed his plan

1795
01:47:05.720 --> 01:47:09.640
for ten years, and ten years should bring mathematical perfection

1796
01:47:09.840 --> 01:47:10.600
to any plan.

1797
01:47:12.039 --> 01:47:14.079
Five years now it has been working.

1798
01:47:14.880 --> 01:47:18.239
By the first of June, three months from now, I

1799
01:47:18.399 --> 01:47:20.840
will be worth fifty thousand dollars.

1800
01:47:24.560 --> 01:47:27.439
Herbert studies the figures on the little pad before him,

1801
01:47:27.880 --> 01:47:32.399
writes a total of fifty thousand, and smiles behind his bifocals.

1802
01:47:32.880 --> 01:47:34.640
Then an abrupt sound breaks his meditation.

1803
01:47:38.319 --> 01:47:40.439
The arditor has just found another shortage, and they've traced

1804
01:47:40.760 --> 01:47:44.560
shortage and nothing. Yes, three thousand dollars. They've traced it,

1805
01:47:44.680 --> 01:47:46.520
definitely third one this year.

1806
01:47:46.960 --> 01:47:48.119
And to whom did they trace it?

1807
01:47:48.199 --> 01:47:51.039
Mister favor, That young fellow Button denies it, of course,

1808
01:47:51.079 --> 01:47:53.720
but the evidence is all against him. But I can't

1809
01:47:53.840 --> 01:47:56.279
understand what happens to young men lately. I do my

1810
01:47:56.399 --> 01:47:58.239
best to hire the ones I think are on. I

1811
01:47:58.319 --> 01:48:01.199
wish you'd exercise a little more care. Oh, I know

1812
01:48:01.399 --> 01:48:03.960
they have the best of references. I sultink by now

1813
01:48:04.039 --> 01:48:05.479
you'd be able to judge character.

1814
01:48:05.279 --> 01:48:06.880
To glass, i'd have sworn by that.

1815
01:48:08.720 --> 01:48:12.399
You've taken down to the police stations a shaming, very embarrassing,

1816
01:48:12.479 --> 01:48:16.279
mister Fabe. I feel as though I'm responsible now, don't

1817
01:48:16.279 --> 01:48:18.760
take it that way, Herbert, and for all we're insured,

1818
01:48:19.439 --> 01:48:21.920
but it is annoying to both of us. We all

1819
01:48:22.039 --> 01:48:26.039
make mistakes in judgment. Now and then said you had

1820
01:48:26.159 --> 01:48:28.439
your nose to the wheel without a vacation for three years.

1821
01:48:28.520 --> 01:48:31.319
Now it doesn't pay, Herbert, you'll crack up. Well, I

1822
01:48:31.520 --> 01:48:34.359
haven't felt as though I needed a vacation, and besides,

1823
01:48:34.399 --> 01:48:35.840
when I do take one, I'd like to have it

1824
01:48:35.880 --> 01:48:39.159
all in one lump. I've always wanted to tour Europe

1825
01:48:39.239 --> 01:48:42.079
for some foreign land for two weeks mean nothing. I

1826
01:48:42.199 --> 01:48:45.520
understand I feel the same way, but what chance is there?

1827
01:48:46.359 --> 01:48:48.119
I do think you need a rest from this place.

1828
01:48:48.399 --> 01:48:50.079
I'll let you know when I'm really tired, and.

1829
01:48:51.600 --> 01:48:54.000
I doubt it. I will say that I admire your

1830
01:48:54.039 --> 01:48:56.680
devotion to duty. Thank you, mister fab It's good to

1831
01:48:56.720 --> 01:48:58.800
hear you say that. I want you to know that

1832
01:48:59.039 --> 01:49:01.520
I appreciate the opportunity of being with the firm for

1833
01:49:01.600 --> 01:49:05.479
twenty years or as a board of Breakfast meeting this afternoon.

1834
01:49:06.159 --> 01:49:08.239
I'm going to try to get you a rape. That's

1835
01:49:08.319 --> 01:49:11.079
all right. So whatever they decided to be for the best.

1836
01:49:11.199 --> 01:49:14.119
I wouldn't want the board to think I was dissatisfied.

1837
01:49:14.199 --> 01:49:17.600
Here forty three Herbert and alone, unmarried. That isn't right.

1838
01:49:17.960 --> 01:49:19.800
And you're not the type of man to tackle marriage

1839
01:49:19.840 --> 01:49:23.279
on your salary. Well, I've been thinking about it. I

1840
01:49:23.479 --> 01:49:27.119
have planned, I've saved a bit. I found the right woman.

1841
01:49:27.239 --> 01:49:29.840
I it was Faber. I may surprise you one of

1842
01:49:29.880 --> 01:49:33.840
these days. Up into my office after the board meeting,

1843
01:49:33.920 --> 01:49:36.199
may have some news for you. Make it around three.

1844
01:49:36.359 --> 01:49:36.640
Thank you.

1845
01:49:41.920 --> 01:49:46.159
Herbert sit at his desk, smiling. What complete confidence they

1846
01:49:46.199 --> 01:49:50.239
have in hire. What a perfect setup. Three thousand more

1847
01:49:50.279 --> 01:49:53.520
accountant for three more months, and I have reached my

1848
01:49:53.680 --> 01:49:57.880
goal fifty thousand and independent.

1849
01:49:57.199 --> 01:49:59.520
For life in South America.

1850
01:50:02.159 --> 01:50:05.560
With a move of sudden decision, Herbert slaps on his hat,

1851
01:50:05.760 --> 01:50:07.439
walks out of the bank, and pays a visit to

1852
01:50:07.479 --> 01:50:09.199
Hazel Yates at her apartment.

1853
01:50:09.560 --> 01:50:11.239
What are you doing away from the bank at this

1854
01:50:11.359 --> 01:50:12.560
hour of the day, Herbert.

1855
01:50:12.520 --> 01:50:14.399
I'm out to lunch. I thought i'd drop by.

1856
01:50:14.600 --> 01:50:17.199
Now that's nice. I'm certainly surprised.

1857
01:50:17.560 --> 01:50:22.920
Uh, Hazel, exactly three months from now, I'm going to

1858
01:50:23.000 --> 01:50:23.680
take a vacation.

1859
01:50:24.079 --> 01:50:27.239
You certainly need one. It's been ages since you've been

1860
01:50:27.279 --> 01:50:28.880
away from your work for more than a day.

1861
01:50:29.000 --> 01:50:31.239
Yes, I know, but I had to keep my nose

1862
01:50:31.319 --> 01:50:35.000
to the grindstone. But now it's different. What do you mean, Well,

1863
01:50:35.079 --> 01:50:36.960
I have kept it a secret, but now I can

1864
01:50:37.039 --> 01:50:39.920
tell you I'm going to get married.

1865
01:50:40.319 --> 01:50:40.640
Married.

1866
01:50:42.119 --> 01:50:44.439
You're going to get married, that's right.

1867
01:50:44.880 --> 01:50:48.840
Well, I thought you never considered married because you felt

1868
01:50:48.880 --> 01:50:50.039
you couldn't support a wife.

1869
01:50:50.279 --> 01:50:53.239
That's true. Now it's different. I didn't want to say anything.

1870
01:50:53.439 --> 01:50:58.439
I was sure, are you talking about, Hazel? For several

1871
01:50:58.520 --> 01:51:00.760
years now, I've been working on a prom a plan,

1872
01:51:00.880 --> 01:51:04.840
a plan that cannot fail because it's mathematically correct.

1873
01:51:05.359 --> 01:51:08.479
What I heard you frightened me.

1874
01:51:09.119 --> 01:51:11.279
It has to do with the stock market. I've worked

1875
01:51:11.319 --> 01:51:12.279
it over and over.

1876
01:51:12.159 --> 01:51:14.000
As the stock market gambling.

1877
01:51:14.079 --> 01:51:16.560
Oh no, not gambling, and not the way I worked

1878
01:51:16.560 --> 01:51:16.840
it out.

1879
01:51:16.920 --> 01:51:19.119
And lots of people have thought they'd found a secret

1880
01:51:19.159 --> 01:51:19.920
to playing the market.

1881
01:51:20.159 --> 01:51:22.920
And what happened, Well, this isn't a theoretical plan. This

1882
01:51:23.000 --> 01:51:25.680
has already worked, proven, already worked.

1883
01:51:25.760 --> 01:51:27.840
I set myself a goal and amount of money I

1884
01:51:27.920 --> 01:51:30.279
felt sufficient to live on in ease for the rest

1885
01:51:30.319 --> 01:51:30.840
of my life.

1886
01:51:31.000 --> 01:51:34.199
Fifty thousand dollars. Beyond that sum, I would not.

1887
01:51:34.239 --> 01:51:36.680
Attempt to go fifty thousand dollars.

1888
01:51:36.840 --> 01:51:39.119
I've placed every dime to youse, gotting to the plan,

1889
01:51:39.279 --> 01:51:40.279
and I've not missed one.

1890
01:51:40.960 --> 01:51:44.680
You mean you have fifty thousand dollars, Well, not quite,

1891
01:51:44.840 --> 01:51:48.439
but we'll have by the first of June. Well, I

1892
01:51:48.520 --> 01:51:52.760
can't get over it. It's very simple. I have got

1893
01:51:52.840 --> 01:51:55.920
three thousand goal and then I'm through three thousand.

1894
01:51:56.520 --> 01:51:59.479
Oh that frightens me. Her, But why don't you be

1895
01:51:59.560 --> 01:52:02.199
statisfied with what you have? You may lose it all

1896
01:52:02.239 --> 01:52:03.279
and trying to get the other.

1897
01:52:03.199 --> 01:52:05.960
Threat whole not a chance. I set myself for gold,

1898
01:52:06.000 --> 01:52:08.159
and I intend to reach it very well.

1899
01:52:08.279 --> 01:52:09.479
I hope you're right.

1900
01:52:10.960 --> 01:52:14.760
Then, I'm going on a long vacation. How long will

1901
01:52:14.800 --> 01:52:18.479
you get from next June on on and on from

1902
01:52:18.560 --> 01:52:19.000
June on?

1903
01:52:20.000 --> 01:52:20.640
How can you do that?

1904
01:52:20.880 --> 01:52:23.000
I'm not going to work another day? Why should I?

1905
01:52:23.079 --> 01:52:23.920
I'll be independent.

1906
01:52:24.119 --> 01:52:27.640
I'm going to quit, quit your job, yes, and take

1907
01:52:27.680 --> 01:52:30.680
a long trip to South America. I'm going to live there.

1908
01:52:31.439 --> 01:52:34.840
Fifty thousand. There's like two hundred thousand. Here, what more

1909
01:52:34.840 --> 01:52:35.439
of jazz for.

1910
01:52:36.199 --> 01:52:39.640
I see and you you're going to get married?

1911
01:52:39.800 --> 01:52:43.720
Yes, yes, I am. I haven't asked her yet. I'm confident.

1912
01:52:44.239 --> 01:52:45.640
Who is she?

1913
01:52:46.479 --> 01:52:47.000
Do I know her?

1914
01:52:47.439 --> 01:52:47.640
Yes?

1915
01:52:48.600 --> 01:52:49.319
She's wonderful.

1916
01:52:50.079 --> 01:52:53.760
Well alike. I wish you lots of happiness, Herbert.

1917
01:52:56.159 --> 01:52:57.920
Would you like to live in South America?

1918
01:52:58.000 --> 01:52:58.159
Has?

1919
01:53:00.239 --> 01:53:00.680
I would?

1920
01:53:01.319 --> 01:53:02.239
Then you and I will be.

1921
01:53:02.319 --> 01:53:06.359
Married first, Herbert, you mean you're asking me?

1922
01:53:06.840 --> 01:53:07.039
Yes.

1923
01:53:07.840 --> 01:53:09.479
I don't say a word, but this it's a secret.

1924
01:53:09.560 --> 01:53:10.199
Don't tell a soul.

1925
01:53:10.439 --> 01:53:15.000
Promise Yes, yes, sir, but I promise, Oh, darling, I

1926
01:53:15.119 --> 01:53:16.520
thought you were never going to ask him.

1927
01:53:16.600 --> 01:53:17.479
I want to surprise you.

1928
01:53:17.760 --> 01:53:19.720
I've never been so thrilled in my life.

1929
01:53:19.880 --> 01:53:21.720
I've got to run along now. I'll see you later

1930
01:53:21.920 --> 01:53:22.399
this evening.

1931
01:53:29.439 --> 01:53:33.880
Yes, everything is working perfectly for Herbert Lang. A ten

1932
01:53:33.960 --> 01:53:37.359
year plan just cannot fail a few months from now

1933
01:53:37.439 --> 01:53:42.560
and he will be independent. Hazel fifty thousand and South America.

1934
01:53:43.680 --> 01:53:45.800
After three Now, all the board meeting is over.

1935
01:53:46.239 --> 01:53:51.239
Herbert steps confidence there the President's office. Well, I see

1936
01:53:51.279 --> 01:53:52.399
the meetings over, mister favor.

1937
01:53:52.680 --> 01:53:57.439
Yes, let's come in. Herbert. Hey talking over with the board.

1938
01:53:58.720 --> 01:54:02.640
They didn't seem to agree with me. Oh, no, Ray, sorry, Herbert.

1939
01:54:03.039 --> 01:54:05.760
Board members are rather a cool group of individuals. That's

1940
01:54:05.800 --> 01:54:07.840
all right with favor. I've gotten used to it after

1941
01:54:07.880 --> 01:54:11.399
all these years. A very selfish loss whole lot of stock.

1942
01:54:11.600 --> 01:54:13.960
Someone else does the work. They draw big dividends, it's

1943
01:54:13.960 --> 01:54:17.199
all they're interested in. I hold stock too, Herbert. Oh,

1944
01:54:17.279 --> 01:54:19.800
I know, sir, But you take a more personal interest

1945
01:54:19.840 --> 01:54:25.239
in the employees, because well you're an active officer. Good. Well,

1946
01:54:25.560 --> 01:54:28.680
maybe they'll see their way clear next year. I certainly

1947
01:54:28.760 --> 01:54:31.359
not wanted to coming patient. No, Herbert, I'll run along

1948
01:54:31.439 --> 01:54:36.880
in just a minute. I haven't quite finished. I had

1949
01:54:36.920 --> 01:54:39.039
quite a session with the board the life of me.

1950
01:54:39.119 --> 01:54:41.640
I don't understand one of them what he means. They

1951
01:54:41.680 --> 01:54:43.680
were up in arms about that lady shortage, but.

1952
01:54:43.760 --> 01:54:44.640
I had nothing to do with that.

1953
01:54:45.199 --> 01:54:47.840
Did they think I tooked? No, No, certainly not. But

1954
01:54:48.439 --> 01:54:51.720
well they do think you were indirectly responsible. Brought up

1955
01:54:51.760 --> 01:54:53.439
the fact that the five men you've hired in the

1956
01:54:53.479 --> 01:54:55.560
past ten years have all been sent to the penitential.

1957
01:54:55.760 --> 01:54:57.920
How can I tell by looking at the man they

1958
01:54:57.960 --> 01:55:01.119
were all recommended? Hey, Board, you've been working to Herbert.

1959
01:55:01.439 --> 01:55:04.039
You need a rest. Have instructed me to give you

1960
01:55:04.079 --> 01:55:09.119
an extended vacation, extended vacation along indefinitely effective and two weeks.

1961
01:55:09.159 --> 01:55:10.760
Oh well, but that's impossible, mister Faber.

1962
01:55:10.840 --> 01:55:11.960
I just couldn't do that one.

1963
01:55:12.239 --> 01:55:13.800
I have a tremendous amount of special.

1964
01:55:13.560 --> 01:55:14.319
Work on the books.

1965
01:55:14.359 --> 01:55:16.600
I just couldn't attend to that in the next two weeks.

1966
01:55:16.680 --> 01:55:19.079
Board at first wanted your vacation to be effective tomorrow night.

1967
01:55:19.119 --> 01:55:21.479
But that's ridiculous. You know that, so who else here

1968
01:55:21.520 --> 01:55:23.520
could step in and take over in a moment's notice?

1969
01:55:23.840 --> 01:55:27.000
Of course that's true. Do you think it would straighten

1970
01:55:27.079 --> 01:55:29.279
things around two weeks if you had special assistance?

1971
01:55:29.319 --> 01:55:32.600
Special? Yes, but I won't need any help, sir.

1972
01:55:32.840 --> 01:55:35.079
I'll be able to handle myself as soon as you

1973
01:55:35.159 --> 01:55:38.079
finished take a nice long trip. You need a herbit

1974
01:55:39.000 --> 01:55:44.399
very well? Oh yes, By the way, Bard has voted

1975
01:55:44.399 --> 01:55:48.439
you a five hundred dollars bonus, have they? They only

1976
01:55:48.479 --> 01:55:51.760
give a bonus on retirement. Why don't you tell me

1977
01:55:51.800 --> 01:55:55.279
the truth, miss Favor, Sirry Herbert, that's where they feel.

1978
01:55:55.319 --> 01:55:57.840
Nothing I can do about it. Oh, you'll let me

1979
01:55:57.920 --> 01:55:59.119
hear from you from time to time.

1980
01:56:01.000 --> 01:56:06.239
Retired of forty three, well, good nights Favor.

1981
01:56:13.119 --> 01:56:17.359
The moment Herbert steps out of Paper's office. Fear, a strangling,

1982
01:56:17.479 --> 01:56:18.760
clutching fear grips him.

1983
01:56:19.000 --> 01:56:22.840
Two weeks. Two short weeks wasn't part of Herbert's plan.

1984
01:56:23.319 --> 01:56:24.720
This is something he hadn't counted on.

1985
01:56:25.319 --> 01:56:26.319
He's two thousand short.

1986
01:56:26.399 --> 01:56:27.560
It's fifty thousand golds.

1987
01:56:28.279 --> 01:56:29.760
He'll have to let it go at that and be.

1988
01:56:29.920 --> 01:56:32.720
Satisfied, and only two weeks to fix the books to

1989
01:56:32.760 --> 01:56:35.760
cover the new thousand dollars shortage. I can say he

1990
01:56:35.840 --> 01:56:39.359
works alone, works feverishly. Then on the tenth day, he

1991
01:56:39.439 --> 01:56:43.279
has accomplished his plan. The book's balance, everything is perfect.

1992
01:56:44.439 --> 01:56:47.239
Things worked out so I expected, Hazel. We didn't wait

1993
01:56:47.279 --> 01:56:49.239
till June. We can be married tomorrow and sale the

1994
01:56:49.279 --> 01:56:49.680
next day.

1995
01:56:49.680 --> 01:56:52.840
I've arranged passage so soon, Herbert, I thought we could

1996
01:56:52.880 --> 01:56:53.800
have a regular way.

1997
01:56:54.000 --> 01:56:56.279
No, no, I think you'd better leave now. Sooner the better.

1998
01:56:56.399 --> 01:57:14.279
You all right, Herbert, whatever you say, Yeah, I could evening.

1999
01:57:14.119 --> 01:57:17.479
Mister Evans. Anything you are, missus Evans wish, just press

2000
01:57:17.560 --> 01:57:19.840
the button. Thank you, Steward, I'll arrange for your deck

2001
01:57:19.960 --> 01:57:20.760
chairs in the morning.

2002
01:57:20.800 --> 01:57:22.600
Thank you, are You're welcome, mister Evans.

2003
01:57:24.439 --> 01:57:28.039
Why did he keep saying mister Evans? Ever does he

2004
01:57:28.119 --> 01:57:31.640
say Evans yes, mister and missus Evans.

2005
01:57:31.479 --> 01:57:34.680
Strange confused us to someone else. I'll put them straight

2006
01:57:34.720 --> 01:57:35.399
on that in the morning.

2007
01:57:36.039 --> 01:57:37.720
What did you do with the passport, Herbert?

2008
01:57:38.199 --> 01:57:39.840
Well, they're in my coat.

2009
01:57:40.279 --> 01:57:41.079
May I see mine?

2010
01:57:42.000 --> 01:57:44.560
Yes? Of course later we best get long to dinner.

2011
01:57:44.640 --> 01:57:44.720
Now.

2012
01:57:45.199 --> 01:57:47.560
I always thought a person had to appear and sign

2013
01:57:47.680 --> 01:57:49.439
his passport before an official.

2014
01:57:50.279 --> 01:57:51.439
No, No, not always.

2015
01:57:51.880 --> 01:57:53.399
Yeah, I see my passport, Herbert.

2016
01:57:54.399 --> 01:57:56.920
What's wrong with you, Hazel? Please Herbert, I'd like to

2017
01:57:56.960 --> 01:58:01.720
see it very well? You are Herbert.

2018
01:58:02.439 --> 01:58:04.640
Why are we traveling under the name of Evan.

2019
01:58:04.800 --> 01:58:06.439
It's better that way incognito.

2020
01:58:06.560 --> 01:58:09.079
You know how did you get this passport without my signing?

2021
01:58:09.159 --> 01:58:09.399
Part?

2022
01:58:10.079 --> 01:58:11.279
This isn't my signature.

2023
01:58:12.119 --> 01:58:13.800
Who signed that doesn't matter?

2024
01:58:13.880 --> 01:58:16.239
I got it. You better study that signature and be

2025
01:58:16.319 --> 01:58:20.840
able to copy it from you arrive in port. Don't worry, Darling,

2026
01:58:20.920 --> 01:58:22.279
It's done this way every day.

2027
01:58:22.479 --> 01:58:23.319
I don't believe you.

2028
01:58:23.920 --> 01:58:27.800
You're hiding from someone running from something that's silly. Fifty

2029
01:58:27.920 --> 01:58:30.159
thousand dollars the stock marketer.

2030
01:58:31.119 --> 01:58:32.039
What are you getting, Anne?

2031
01:58:32.399 --> 01:58:32.439
No?

2032
01:58:32.720 --> 01:58:34.840
I am suspicious, are you?

2033
01:58:34.960 --> 01:58:35.319
Hazel?

2034
01:58:35.560 --> 01:58:39.039
You stole that money stock market or you never need

2035
01:58:39.079 --> 01:58:39.600
a dime.

2036
01:58:39.439 --> 01:58:40.119
On a stock marker?

2037
01:58:40.760 --> 01:58:42.079
Being a bit silly, Hazel.

2038
01:58:42.279 --> 01:58:46.680
So this was your plan, a stone stealing from the

2039
01:58:46.760 --> 01:58:47.760
bank and blaming others.

2040
01:58:48.399 --> 01:58:50.800
That's what happened to my brother two years ago. That's

2041
01:58:50.880 --> 01:58:52.039
why he was sent to jail.

2042
01:58:53.359 --> 01:58:56.600
All right, Hazel, you're in this tool now, so I'll

2043
01:58:56.600 --> 01:58:58.720
tell you I did have a plan and it worked.

2044
01:58:59.439 --> 01:59:01.279
No one will ever be able to trace it to me,

2045
01:59:01.840 --> 01:59:04.600
and I'll take care of your brother later. I've sent

2046
01:59:04.680 --> 01:59:06.399
all the money to a man in Brazil, man I know.

2047
01:59:06.960 --> 01:59:09.720
Sent him several packages and asked him to hold them

2048
01:59:09.760 --> 01:59:12.920
pending my arrival. He doesn't know what's in them. What

2049
01:59:13.279 --> 01:59:16.560
man well, his name is Pedro Gonzalez, Big coffee plant

2050
01:59:16.600 --> 01:59:17.840
outside of Rio Degeneio.

2051
01:59:18.039 --> 01:59:22.079
I see you and I are the only ones who know, Hazel.

2052
01:59:22.479 --> 01:59:25.479
Supposing I tell what I know, you will be an accomplice,

2053
01:59:25.640 --> 01:59:26.880
but my brother will be cleared.

2054
01:59:27.720 --> 01:59:29.479
I told you your brother will be taken care of.

2055
01:59:29.760 --> 01:59:32.039
The Only way my brother can be compensated is to

2056
01:59:32.119 --> 01:59:33.399
be clear to the charge.

2057
01:59:34.439 --> 01:59:37.520
And I intend to clear him regardless of what happens.

2058
01:59:37.279 --> 01:59:41.279
To Mejeseus, you're being awfully silly about this last call

2059
01:59:41.319 --> 01:59:41.680
for dinner.

2060
01:59:41.720 --> 01:59:42.479
He will come along with me.

2061
01:59:42.640 --> 01:59:47.239
I don't want any dinner then let's step up on

2062
01:59:47.319 --> 01:59:50.439
the top deck. Let's just talk this over a lot

2063
01:59:50.479 --> 01:59:54.199
of things you don't understand, Hazels. I'm sure I can

2064
01:59:54.319 --> 01:59:55.920
explain things to your satisfaction.

2065
01:59:56.319 --> 01:59:57.960
I certainly need some fresh air.

2066
01:59:58.319 --> 02:00:01.319
I'm terribly sorry to have a set you like this, Hazel.

2067
02:00:13.399 --> 02:00:17.439
The passing liner flowers on through the darkness. The wind

2068
02:00:17.560 --> 02:00:20.079
sings mournfully through the masts and cables.

2069
02:00:20.800 --> 02:00:24.119
Herbert cannot see. Herbert's worried his plan worked.

2070
02:00:24.159 --> 02:00:24.920
It was perfect.

2071
02:00:25.199 --> 02:00:28.800
He'll never trace the money to him. But Hazel presents

2072
02:00:28.840 --> 02:00:33.520
another problem. It is morning now, nine am. Steward steps

2073
02:00:33.600 --> 02:00:34.760
up to Herbert's stateroom door.

2074
02:00:35.279 --> 02:00:37.479
But the days, well, why don't you look at this sensibly?

2075
02:00:37.840 --> 02:00:39.039
Isn't as though I've done a murder?

2076
02:00:39.079 --> 02:00:39.359
Why did it?

2077
02:00:39.479 --> 02:00:39.880
Answer?

2078
02:00:40.600 --> 02:00:42.960
You are the first woman who discovered something about her husband.

2079
02:00:43.520 --> 02:00:45.840
I made a mistake, and I'm sorry. It's done in

2080
02:00:45.960 --> 02:00:50.119
the past, and why not look forward to the future together? Yes,

2081
02:00:52.239 --> 02:00:52.760
you range?

2082
02:00:53.279 --> 02:00:56.800
Yeah, Well, my wife isn't feeling well this morning, Stewart. Oh,

2083
02:00:56.880 --> 02:00:59.319
I'm sorry. I'll have something sat down, darling.

2084
02:01:00.520 --> 02:01:02.600
Breakfast still being served, Stewards, Yes, sup, for a few

2085
02:01:02.640 --> 02:01:06.479
minute chat, then come along please, she'd better have something light,

2086
02:01:07.239 --> 02:01:10.039
grapefruit coffee and dry toast, yes, sir, And.

2087
02:01:10.439 --> 02:01:11.760
How about a softballed egg?

2088
02:01:12.119 --> 02:01:14.960
Well, is she seasick? No, no, she didn't see sick.

2089
02:01:15.039 --> 02:01:18.359
She just emotionally upset. You know you now a woman

2090
02:01:18.760 --> 02:01:22.399
gets sometime or nothing. Oh, yes, I know, so I

2091
02:01:22.520 --> 02:01:26.159
think an egg will be nice, very well. Grapefruit coffee,

2092
02:01:26.520 --> 02:01:30.239
toast dry, so dry, and an egg take about fifteen

2093
02:01:30.279 --> 02:01:32.760
minutes or so. Here's the coffee shop, so you'll get

2094
02:01:32.840 --> 02:01:36.720
quicker service here. Oh, thanks to and good luck sir.

2095
02:01:37.000 --> 02:01:38.880
Huh what do you means?

2096
02:01:38.960 --> 02:01:41.520
Well, I married myself, and I know how it is.

2097
02:01:41.920 --> 02:01:45.600
Women are just naturally suspicious creatures and jealous of everyone,

2098
02:01:45.960 --> 02:01:47.680
jealous of your past and your future.

2099
02:01:47.840 --> 02:01:51.600
I know how long have human marriage, sir? Not long.

2100
02:01:52.399 --> 02:01:53.680
Well she'll get over it.

2101
02:01:54.159 --> 02:01:54.600
Be sorry.

2102
02:01:55.840 --> 02:01:58.359
Well, I just couldn't help hitting when I came to

2103
02:01:58.399 --> 02:01:58.800
your door.

2104
02:01:58.960 --> 02:02:02.119
Just now you'll plud me. I better get my audience.

2105
02:02:02.199 --> 02:02:04.319
Oh yes, it's after night. By the way, if you're

2106
02:02:04.319 --> 02:02:06.520
in the mood, there'll be games and contests on the

2107
02:02:06.680 --> 02:02:10.760
after deck upside starting now. Horse races fifty cents a

2108
02:02:10.840 --> 02:02:11.920
ticket if you care to gamble.

2109
02:02:12.000 --> 02:02:13.560
I know, I know, but I don't gamble.

2110
02:02:13.720 --> 02:02:16.239
Oh, well, then you'll find plenty of other things to

2111
02:02:16.319 --> 02:02:17.479
keep your mind off your trouble.

2112
02:02:17.560 --> 02:02:18.279
See your latest.

2113
02:02:20.720 --> 02:02:24.880
Herbert steps into the coffee shop orders his breakfast. Try

2114
02:02:24.920 --> 02:02:27.760
as he might, he can't keep his mind off his troubles,

2115
02:02:28.319 --> 02:02:32.600
his troubles and Hazel. He ponders over the thousands of

2116
02:02:32.640 --> 02:02:36.000
dollars in the cork lined waterproof package hidden in his trunk.

2117
02:02:36.039 --> 02:02:39.319
In the state room, wonders if Pedro Gonzalez will meet

2118
02:02:39.359 --> 02:02:44.359
the ship outside the harbor as planned fifteen twenty minutes past.

2119
02:02:44.600 --> 02:02:49.359
Then, mister, mister heavns, yes, what is what's wrong with?

2120
02:02:49.520 --> 02:02:51.760
It's your wife, sir, it's your wife. What are you

2121
02:02:51.840 --> 02:02:54.039
trying to say? She is in the state room?

2122
02:02:54.079 --> 02:02:54.720
No sign of her.

2123
02:02:55.159 --> 02:02:56.760
She must have decided to walk around.

2124
02:02:56.800 --> 02:02:58.439
No, no, no, will you calm down?

2125
02:02:58.479 --> 02:03:00.600
Please look look at this I found on the dressing

2126
02:03:00.680 --> 02:03:02.039
table from the time.

2127
02:03:02.800 --> 02:03:06.640
It must have just happened, so it says nine ten Am, Herbert.

2128
02:03:06.760 --> 02:03:10.840
I cannot reconcile myself to such a situation. The very

2129
02:03:11.000 --> 02:03:13.079
thought of being married to such a man as you

2130
02:03:14.079 --> 02:03:16.880
sickens me to the depth of my soul. I can't

2131
02:03:16.960 --> 02:03:20.520
go on, and don't think you will escape punishment for

2132
02:03:20.600 --> 02:03:24.800
the suffering you've caused goodbye table.

2133
02:03:25.039 --> 02:03:27.600
He's jumped over at nine ten, just twelve minutes.

2134
02:03:28.359 --> 02:03:29.039
A little fool.

2135
02:03:29.560 --> 02:03:32.199
I'm hould the bridge, Give me the bridge, chewing out

2136
02:03:32.199 --> 02:03:35.319
of my mind. Bridge stop ship Marion overboard.

2137
02:03:43.039 --> 02:03:44.800
The ship leans over and puts about.

2138
02:03:45.199 --> 02:03:48.640
They scour the toppy seas for over an hour, circling

2139
02:03:48.800 --> 02:03:53.039
and circling. Herbert stands beside the captain, gring wild eyed

2140
02:03:53.079 --> 02:03:55.159
into the water. Ily.

2141
02:03:55.319 --> 02:03:58.399
The captain gives up home, orders the ship resume its course,

2142
02:03:58.720 --> 02:04:00.560
and invites Herbert to his quarters.

2143
02:04:02.079 --> 02:04:06.000
Sit down, mister Evans, I mean Stuart. Yes, sir, well,

2144
02:04:06.119 --> 02:04:08.439
we've certainly done our best, mister Evans, no one can

2145
02:04:08.520 --> 02:04:10.359
deny that, as Captain and I no one, and I

2146
02:04:10.479 --> 02:04:13.880
appreciate your efforts. But she is very sharpy. It would

2147
02:04:13.880 --> 02:04:15.920
be hard to find anyone, as you know. We'll have

2148
02:04:16.000 --> 02:04:18.720
to ask a few questions. Yes, as I understand, this

2149
02:04:18.920 --> 02:04:22.079
note was written by your wife at nine ten this morning. Yes,

2150
02:04:22.439 --> 02:04:25.520
do you recognize it as her writing? Of course it's hers,

2151
02:04:25.520 --> 02:04:28.680
all right, Captain. I checked with her passports. Mister Evans,

2152
02:04:29.039 --> 02:04:30.159
how long have you been married?

2153
02:04:30.800 --> 02:04:33.039
Just a few days. We were on our honeymoon.

2154
02:04:33.239 --> 02:04:35.479
The tone of this note indicates that your wife was

2155
02:04:35.560 --> 02:04:37.920
terribly upset about something she had discovered.

2156
02:04:38.199 --> 02:04:40.760
That's right. I tried to reason with her, but she

2157
02:04:40.880 --> 02:04:43.159
refused to see my side. I guess what was she

2158
02:04:43.319 --> 02:04:44.279
referring to in a note?

2159
02:04:44.399 --> 02:04:45.039
I can answer that.

2160
02:04:45.119 --> 02:04:48.479
I'm not asking you, Stewart. What was she referring to,

2161
02:04:48.600 --> 02:04:49.159
mister Evans.

2162
02:04:50.560 --> 02:04:54.079
She was referring to another woman she'd found out about

2163
02:04:54.079 --> 02:04:55.880
another woman, a woman I'd knowed.

2164
02:04:55.760 --> 02:04:58.479
Previous to our marriage. Did your wife threaten you? No?

2165
02:04:58.800 --> 02:05:02.560
Did you threaten her? When did you see her last? Well?

2166
02:05:03.319 --> 02:05:05.600
It was at nine o'clock this morning. She was so

2167
02:05:05.720 --> 02:05:07.960
upset she didn't want to go up to breakfast. I

2168
02:05:08.279 --> 02:05:10.680
decided to go alone. I rang with the steward to

2169
02:05:10.680 --> 02:05:13.079
bring us something to the room. That right, steward, Yes, sir.

2170
02:05:13.520 --> 02:05:15.600
After the steward left, did you go on dick with

2171
02:05:15.680 --> 02:05:16.079
your wife?

2172
02:05:16.680 --> 02:05:16.720
No?

2173
02:05:16.880 --> 02:05:19.199
I left with the steward went to the coffee shop.

2174
02:05:19.720 --> 02:05:21.800
That's where the steward found me and showed me the nose.

2175
02:05:21.920 --> 02:05:22.079
Yes.

2176
02:05:22.640 --> 02:05:25.000
As I stepped up to the stateroom to answer the call,

2177
02:05:25.039 --> 02:05:27.800
I heard the Margarine. I heard mister Evans asking us

2178
02:05:27.840 --> 02:05:30.960
forget about the past and think of the futures. And

2179
02:05:31.079 --> 02:05:33.560
he told her he'd have me bring something down him

2180
02:05:33.560 --> 02:05:35.199
and me walked along the corner door up to the

2181
02:05:35.239 --> 02:05:35.840
coffee shop.

2182
02:05:36.359 --> 02:05:37.880
He told me what to bring her and I got it.

2183
02:05:37.960 --> 02:05:39.079
When I returned to the room.

2184
02:05:38.960 --> 02:05:41.399
She wasn't there. I found a note on the table

2185
02:05:41.479 --> 02:05:43.960
and rang for mister Evans, and I found the bride.

2186
02:05:43.960 --> 02:05:46.479
And you didn't feed the coffee shop Evans. I did

2187
02:05:46.680 --> 02:05:49.800
not ask the coffee shop steward. Are you trying to

2188
02:05:49.840 --> 02:05:52.319
in further? I pushed my wife and money not. We

2189
02:05:52.600 --> 02:05:55.239
just want all the facts. We're on the high seage,

2190
02:05:55.279 --> 02:05:59.960
you know. And this represents a court of inquiry, coroner's jury.

2191
02:06:00.079 --> 02:06:00.640
Sure to speak.

2192
02:06:01.560 --> 02:06:05.840
I see, mister Goodman, my first officer here, the ship's doctor,

2193
02:06:05.960 --> 02:06:07.079
and I will make a decision.

2194
02:06:08.079 --> 02:06:09.640
What's your opinion, gentlemen.

2195
02:06:09.600 --> 02:06:12.520
According to the Stuart statement and the note, I'd say suicide.

2196
02:06:12.680 --> 02:06:15.920
Mine is the same opinion. Very well, I agree with you.

2197
02:06:16.840 --> 02:06:21.359
It's quite obvious that she committed suicide. Enter the findings

2198
02:06:21.399 --> 02:06:24.359
in that manner, mister Goodman. Yes, sir, I'm very sorry

2199
02:06:24.399 --> 02:06:37.720
about this. Mister Evans. Please accept my condolences. That'll be all, gentlemen, and.

2200
02:06:37.960 --> 02:06:41.920
So Herbert very sad, far less worried goes back with

2201
02:06:42.039 --> 02:06:46.399
stateroom to think. Ten days later, the sleek liner checks

2202
02:06:46.439 --> 02:06:49.359
speed and prepares to stand off outside Rio de Janeiro,

2203
02:06:49.920 --> 02:06:51.640
awaiting the arrival of the pilot.

2204
02:06:52.680 --> 02:06:55.479
Dusk has fallen. The ship barely creeps along.

2205
02:06:56.079 --> 02:06:58.800
Herbert stands at the aft port rail a package in

2206
02:06:58.880 --> 02:07:02.399
his hand, a cork line waterproof package. Many small boats

2207
02:07:02.439 --> 02:07:05.359
bob about on the surface, moving at a snail's pace.

2208
02:07:06.479 --> 02:07:09.359
The first officer moves forward. Herbert speaks to him.

2209
02:07:10.439 --> 02:07:11.680
Why are we stopping out here?

2210
02:07:12.000 --> 02:07:13.720
We always stop at this first light to wait for

2211
02:07:13.760 --> 02:07:14.439
the harbor pilot.

2212
02:07:15.279 --> 02:07:16.439
How much longer before we get in?

2213
02:07:16.800 --> 02:07:19.560
Oh we'll tie up in about an hour. Stand here

2214
02:07:19.600 --> 02:07:21.960
for about ten minutes. Pilot's on his way out.

2215
02:07:22.000 --> 02:07:22.119
Now.

2216
02:07:22.399 --> 02:07:25.800
I see what's the name of this first light here?

2217
02:07:26.159 --> 02:07:27.680
Well, it's called the Cordoba Light.

2218
02:07:28.199 --> 02:07:28.520
Thank you.

2219
02:07:29.000 --> 02:07:30.640
Why don't you come up forward? There's nothing to see

2220
02:07:30.680 --> 02:07:33.600
from back here. All the excitement will be up ahead. Yeah,

2221
02:07:33.760 --> 02:07:34.720
I'll go there in a moment.

2222
02:07:35.439 --> 02:07:36.640
What's that you have there? Huh?

2223
02:07:37.279 --> 02:07:38.760
Oh for this camera?

2224
02:07:39.159 --> 02:07:39.199
No?

2225
02:07:39.680 --> 02:07:43.159
No, it's some manuscripts of Why are the oil skin wrapping?

2226
02:07:43.520 --> 02:07:44.560
Do you think we might go down?

2227
02:07:45.239 --> 02:07:49.479
No? I well, I guess I am a little superstitious.

2228
02:07:50.199 --> 02:07:54.720
After all, we we did sail on Friday the thirteen. Well,

2229
02:07:54.800 --> 02:07:55.640
i'll see you up for it.

2230
02:08:01.399 --> 02:08:04.039
The ship comes to a dead stop and Herbert peers

2231
02:08:04.119 --> 02:08:05.199
over the port rail.

2232
02:08:05.000 --> 02:08:05.600
Into the dust.

2233
02:08:06.119 --> 02:08:10.000
He scrutinizes each small craft, waiting, watching for the signal.

2234
02:08:10.279 --> 02:08:15.000
It's the signal from Pedro Gonzalez. Then, after several minutes,

2235
02:08:15.239 --> 02:08:18.640
a tiny launch approaches the ship very slowly, and just

2236
02:08:18.760 --> 02:08:21.199
as it reaches the port quarter, a tiny red light

2237
02:08:21.279 --> 02:08:24.039
flashes on and off. Herbert cuts his hands around his

2238
02:08:24.159 --> 02:08:26.279
eyes and focuses on the one man in.

2239
02:08:26.319 --> 02:08:26.880
The little boat.

2240
02:08:27.560 --> 02:08:30.199
Light signals again, Pedro gunsness.

2241
02:08:30.800 --> 02:08:33.159
Herbert looks up and down the deck, grabs a little

2242
02:08:33.159 --> 02:08:36.560
flash lamp from his pocket, and gives the answering signal. Suddenly,

2243
02:08:36.600 --> 02:08:38.159
with a swing of his arm, he tosses the water

2244
02:08:38.199 --> 02:08:39.439
through package down to the water.

2245
02:08:45.720 --> 02:08:47.720
He's gone, good work, Pedrol.

2246
02:08:51.279 --> 02:08:54.199
The man grabs the package and the little launch moves

2247
02:08:54.239 --> 02:08:57.039
away and heads up the coast. As the liner churns

2248
02:08:57.119 --> 02:09:01.000
off up the harbor, Herbert smiles a smile of relief

2249
02:09:01.359 --> 02:09:10.760
and steps briskly with self satisfaction towards the bow. And now,

2250
02:09:11.039 --> 02:09:14.359
three hours after docking, Herbert waits in a little water done.

2251
02:09:14.439 --> 02:09:18.479
Cafe waits impatiently for Pedro Gonzalez to keep the rendezvous,

2252
02:09:19.039 --> 02:09:22.159
but Pedro is already an hour late, and Herbert has

2253
02:09:22.239 --> 02:09:23.079
begun to worry.

2254
02:09:27.319 --> 02:09:31.399
I would like more wine, Senor, Oh, oh yes, please,

2255
02:09:31.560 --> 02:09:34.920
I'll have another wine, Pedro? Are you all right?

2256
02:09:36.359 --> 02:09:41.439
Pedro? Can you hear me? Pedro Caedo? Tell me?

2257
02:09:42.279 --> 02:09:43.159
Tell me it's from me?

2258
02:09:43.239 --> 02:09:47.640
Where is it? You've got to tell me the money, Pedro,

2259
02:09:48.560 --> 02:09:49.640
where did you bury the money?

2260
02:09:50.760 --> 02:09:52.880
You can't, you can't die.

2261
02:09:52.920 --> 02:09:53.720
You've got to tell me.

2262
02:10:02.159 --> 02:10:06.319
But poor Pedro was dead, quite dead, and with him

2263
02:10:06.359 --> 02:10:09.800
died the hopes, the plans, the twenty year plan of

2264
02:10:09.840 --> 02:10:14.720
Herbert Lang, the perfect crime that ended in failure. Herbert

2265
02:10:14.880 --> 02:10:17.520
was a thief, but worse still, he followed it up

2266
02:10:17.560 --> 02:10:21.640
with murder. Oh yes, Herbert killed Hazel, choked her, and

2267
02:10:21.840 --> 02:10:24.359
threw her over the first night out. She wasn't in

2268
02:10:24.439 --> 02:10:25.920
the room that following morning.

2269
02:10:26.319 --> 02:10:30.119
The steward only thought she was, and Herbert himself forged

2270
02:10:30.159 --> 02:10:34.800
the suicide note. For two years now, a thin, emaciated,

2271
02:10:34.880 --> 02:10:38.359
glassy eyed figure has been wandering around a Brazilian beach,

2272
02:10:38.720 --> 02:10:42.159
digging holes in the sand. No one knows why, and

2273
02:10:42.279 --> 02:10:47.439
no one cares, just another simple minded derelict, and poor

2274
02:10:47.600 --> 02:10:51.640
Herbert Lang will go on digging for a long long time.

2275
02:10:53.039 --> 02:10:53.760
I know.

2276
02:11:19.399 --> 02:11:24.680
Well, my dear, the evening has lost its battle against

2277
02:11:24.800 --> 02:11:29.880
the oppression of the sun once again. Soon it will

2278
02:11:29.920 --> 02:11:33.439
be day. You'll need to return to your home and

2279
02:11:33.640 --> 02:11:38.239
me to where it is I come from. But I

2280
02:11:38.399 --> 02:11:42.760
do hope i'll see you back here again. I'll be waiting,

2281
02:11:43.760 --> 02:11:50.920
same time, same place, happy to have you. But if

2282
02:11:51.000 --> 02:11:55.479
I may ask one more favor of you when you

2283
02:11:55.640 --> 02:11:59.199
make your way home, when you go across the darkened

2284
02:11:59.279 --> 02:12:02.880
streets and the moonlit trails, and as you lay your

2285
02:12:03.000 --> 02:12:08.520
head and blink away the day, take one moment before

2286
02:12:08.640 --> 02:12:13.760
you sleep and be thankful for what you have. And

2287
02:12:14.000 --> 02:12:16.199
I'll be seeing you soon
