Speaker 8 (01:30):
The CBS Radio Mystery Theater Presents Come in. Welcome. I'm E. G. Marshall.

(01:56):
Look not upon the wine when it is.

Speaker 9 (01:58):
Read in the cup.

Speaker 10 (02:00):
The Good Book tells us it biteth like a serpent,
It stingeth like an adder. But when it glows that
fiery red and bites and stings like a rattlesnake, that's
when it bubbles the blood and fires the brain. That's
the time, the only time it's worth looking at it.
But it's hard, so hard to do the right thing.

Speaker 8 (02:22):
And it's such a small.

Speaker 10 (02:24):
Word, such a tiny word, it only has two letters.

Speaker 8 (02:29):
Why is it so hard to say?

Speaker 9 (02:32):
No, I'm guilty.

Speaker 11 (02:36):
I say you're innocent.

Speaker 9 (02:37):
I wanted to kill him.

Speaker 12 (02:38):
That's an important gun. Yes, my fingerprints are on the gun.

Speaker 11 (02:42):
I still say you're innocent.

Speaker 13 (02:43):
Why?

Speaker 11 (02:44):
Because I want to believe it.

Speaker 10 (02:56):
Our mystery drama, Little Green Death, was written with the
mystery theater by Sam Dan and stars Kim Hunter. It
is sponsored in part by Buick Motor Division and Contact
the twelve Hour Cold Capsule. I'll be back shortly with
Act one. At a place in Russia called Borodino, Napoleon

(03:29):
won a battle but lost a war. Now, why should
we be concerned? This is, after all, the mystery theater,
not the history theater. You see at the Battle of Borodino,
Napoleon was not his usual alert, brilliant self.

Speaker 9 (03:45):
He was tired.

Speaker 10 (03:46):
It was an effort to think to act. Why because
he had a cold, And why did he have a
cold because his feet were wet? And why because his
orderly was drunk before and had neglected to make sure
that the emperor would have a pair of dry boots.
And so the history of the world was changed. We

(04:10):
don't even know that orderly's name. But let us consider
some other workings of blind chants.

Speaker 9 (04:17):
Oh my head.

Speaker 11 (04:19):
You're looking at me for sympathies. Don't shout, I'm only whispering.

Speaker 9 (04:25):
This time, I swear I'll stay on the wagon.

Speaker 11 (04:28):
Till you fall off again.

Speaker 9 (04:30):
Look, I got it down to once a.

Speaker 11 (04:32):
Year, once too many. Where did you go last night?

Speaker 14 (04:37):
Boy?

Speaker 9 (04:37):
Do I know?

Speaker 11 (04:38):
Well, what did you do?

Speaker 9 (04:40):
Do I remember?

Speaker 15 (04:42):
Oh?

Speaker 11 (04:42):
Yeah, you hardly touched a druy?

Speaker 16 (04:44):
No I know?

Speaker 11 (04:45):
And then one night, for some reason, for no reason
you ever want to talk about, you just get blind,
staggering drunk.

Speaker 8 (04:52):
Now why if.

Speaker 9 (04:54):
I could answer that? If only I could answer.

Speaker 11 (04:56):
That, are you going to work today?

Speaker 1 (04:59):
Oh?

Speaker 17 (04:59):
Sure?

Speaker 9 (05:00):
And big sale got opened the store early, Elmer?

Speaker 11 (05:05):
Look about the note.

Speaker 12 (05:06):
Yeah, well that's that's why I thought we'd have the
sale raise cash quickly.

Speaker 11 (05:11):
Did you talk to Bob Kirtland?

Speaker 12 (05:13):
Well, yeah, about an extension, you know Bob Kirkland.

Speaker 11 (05:18):
He said, no, don't don't worry.

Speaker 9 (05:21):
I'll have a cash for him by next week.

Speaker 11 (05:23):
Sure, by giving away all the stuck in the store
won't be that bad. It'll be worse. We needed the extension, Elmer,
so we could work off the dead and still have
some equity.

Speaker 12 (05:34):
I went to see Kirkland at his country house. I
told him if he didn't give me an extension, it'd
mean I'd probably have to go out of business. You
know what he said? He said, in the long run,
he'd be doing me a favor. He was, He said,
I wasn't cut out for business. The sooner I realized that,

(05:54):
the better.

Speaker 11 (05:55):
Okay, it's been a bad year, Elmer, it's not your fault,
I told him.

Speaker 12 (05:59):
Then he just said it hadn't been a bad year
for him, just for fellows who didn't.

Speaker 9 (06:06):
Know what they were doing.

Speaker 11 (06:06):
So how did you leave it?

Speaker 9 (06:08):
How did I leave it?

Speaker 11 (06:09):
He may have said no? But is there any possibility
that he might change his mind?

Speaker 18 (06:14):
Ah?

Speaker 9 (06:15):
I I don't think so.

Speaker 11 (06:16):
Would it help if I asked?

Speaker 9 (06:17):
I don't think so? But Bob Kirtland is a man
who's completely devoid of sentimental don't say that the more
he has it in for me personally.

Speaker 11 (06:26):
Now that's where you're wrong. Bob Kirtland never gets personal
about business.

Speaker 9 (06:30):
Yeah, well I think that's changed. What do you mean
I got.

Speaker 12 (06:34):
A little personal about Bob Kirtland last night.

Speaker 9 (06:38):
I couldn't help it. I saw all.

Speaker 12 (06:40):
Those years of hard work at every dollar we have
in the world going down the drain, and.

Speaker 9 (06:47):
Then and what, well, I guess I told him off.

Speaker 12 (06:51):
Oh I uh, I called him a vulture. And then
I stopped off it said I had a drink, then
another drink. I see, that's all I remember. Really, I'm sorry, Lucy,
I'm really really sorry.

Speaker 11 (07:09):
All right, Well, you are going to pick up the
phone and call Bob Kirtland and you are going to apologize.

Speaker 9 (07:16):
Wait just a minute.

Speaker 11 (07:17):
It has to be done, not after what I said
to it, especially after what you said to him.

Speaker 9 (07:23):
I've got my problem.

Speaker 11 (07:24):
Pride is an extravagance you can't afford.

Speaker 9 (07:26):
That's what he wants to do, make me cruel.

Speaker 11 (07:28):
He is a meticulous man. The floor is clean in
his house.

Speaker 9 (07:33):
I won't do it.

Speaker 8 (07:33):
I'll die This number.

Speaker 11 (07:36):
Who do you suppose that is at this hour of
the morning, But don't stand there. Elma opened it. Oh
it's you, Sheriff.

Speaker 8 (07:49):
I'm afraid it's me.

Speaker 11 (07:50):
Well that doesn't sound so good. We'll come on in anyhow.
We see you once a year, each time after Elma
has had his little evening. You were here last let's
see it was, Yes, it'll be a year next month.
Elma went swimming in the town hall of Fountain.

Speaker 9 (08:10):
You woke up a coffee, Sheriff.

Speaker 19 (08:12):
Well, I do, but I don't know if I should
I come here to place Elmer under arrest?

Speaker 9 (08:22):
What for? Did I do something crazy last night?

Speaker 8 (08:26):
I'm afraid you did?

Speaker 11 (08:28):
What What did he do? Sheriff?

Speaker 8 (08:32):
Elmer?

Speaker 19 (08:34):
I arresked you for the murder of Robert kinfeathered Kurtling.
I must inform you than anything you say, maybe years against.

Speaker 11 (08:42):
You murder.

Speaker 9 (08:44):
Kirkland. He's dead.

Speaker 11 (08:47):
Yeah, last night, But why do you say that Elma
did it?

Speaker 12 (08:53):
Elma was there, that's right, I was, Elmer, did you?

Speaker 1 (09:02):
I don't know.

Speaker 9 (09:04):
We found the gun.

Speaker 11 (09:05):
Elmer's never fired a gun in his life. Elma wouldn't
know how. He wouldn't even own a gun. He dislikes guns.
Everybody knows that.

Speaker 19 (09:14):
That may be true. But he fired one of Bob
Kirtland last night.

Speaker 8 (09:18):
How can you say that his fingerprints are well?

Speaker 11 (09:22):
How could he?

Speaker 8 (09:24):
I'm sorry, Elmer, I don't know, all.

Speaker 11 (09:31):
Right, all right, Bob had Elmer in a very tight squeeze,
and Elmer went to visit him last night to see
if they could make some kind of a financial arrangement.
Do you understand sheriff and Bob Kirtland being Bob Kirtland,
I mean, no disrespect to the dead, but well, Bob

(09:52):
Kirtland was the meanest, stingiest, most vindictive.

Speaker 19 (09:56):
I've heard that.

Speaker 11 (09:57):
And one word led to another. Elmer became, I'm so angry,
so desperate. You see, he faces the loss of everything.
Do you realize that? And so so he lost his
temper and in a fit of rage, he he killed
Bob Kirtland. It's murder, yes, but you see it's it's
not cold blooded, premeditated murder. Oh, it's not justified. Murder

(10:21):
is never justified, but it is understandable, and the jury
will have to take that into consideration.

Speaker 19 (10:28):
The jury also have taken something else into consideration.

Speaker 8 (10:33):
Lucy, what's that?

Speaker 19 (10:35):
The fact that he had a gun, A gun, a
fear of rage. All very well, Lucy, But why did
you bring the gun unless he meant to use it?

Speaker 9 (10:47):
Yell? I I don't know, Sheriff.

Speaker 12 (10:54):
I just don't know, Lucy.

Speaker 20 (11:03):
Well, I don't think you'd be in the store today.

Speaker 11 (11:05):
I can't afford not to be in the store.

Speaker 20 (11:07):
Phil, I want you to know I'll do everything i can.

Speaker 11 (11:13):
Thanks Phil.

Speaker 20 (11:15):
I don't believe Almer could have killed Bob Kirtlin.

Speaker 11 (11:18):
Oh they've got a gun with his fingerprints.

Speaker 20 (11:20):
I don't care about that. Do you believe Elmer is guilty?

Speaker 11 (11:25):
It's crazy. Elmer's the sweetest, most gentle human being in
the whole wide world. But maybe once a year when
he starts drinking.

Speaker 20 (11:34):
I believe he's innocent.

Speaker 11 (11:36):
Oh Phil, Phil, you and Elmer you're two of a kind.

Speaker 20 (11:39):
Oh no, we're not.

Speaker 9 (11:41):
We're friends.

Speaker 20 (11:41):
We're buddies since kindergarten. But I'm not like Elmer at all.
And you know that I'm practical. He's a dreamer. I'm
down to earth. I've made money, a lot of money,
and it's yours, yours, almour.

Speaker 9 (11:56):
Oh no, what do you mean?

Speaker 20 (11:58):
Oh no, I'm Elmer's friend, I'm your You should have
borrowed the money from me in the first place, instead
of going to Bob Kirtland.

Speaker 11 (12:04):
But you don't borrow money from friend.

Speaker 20 (12:06):
Look, Elmer needs a lawyer.

Speaker 11 (12:08):
I thought I'd ask Lou Ballentine to do.

Speaker 20 (12:10):
What Lucy, this is a murder case.

Speaker 11 (12:12):
No, but Lou is very good for.

Speaker 20 (12:15):
Sure, drawing up contracts, writing wills. But he's never ever
defended against a murder chartist. But still, it's like it
is with doctors. You don't go to a psychiatrist to
take your appendix out. Now you need a lawyer who
specializes in murder, and you're not going to find one
in this town.

Speaker 11 (12:33):
I just don't know what to say, then I do.

Speaker 20 (12:37):
I've engaged a lawyer for you.

Speaker 11 (12:38):
You have.

Speaker 20 (12:40):
You need one of the best lawyers in the world,
because that jury is going to be afraid to a
quit Elmer or even to let him off easy.

Speaker 11 (12:47):
How can you say that Elma grew up in this town.
Everybody knows him. They'll be fair.

Speaker 20 (12:53):
Melissa Kirtland is on her way home from Europe.

Speaker 8 (12:57):
Her father's dead. Now she owns the town.

Speaker 20 (13:01):
Well, Lucy, look, I forgave you for marrying Elmer, But
she never forgave Elmer for marrying you. Now, that's why
you need a lawyer who can keep the judge and
the state's attorney and even the jury on their toes.
Melissa wouldn't what, Oh, Lucy, you're a very sweet and

(13:23):
decent person, but you shouldn't judge everyone by yourself. On
that jury, you'll have shopkeepers, you'll have farmers. They won't
be out to alienate Melissa Kirkland, the richest woman in
the county.

Speaker 11 (13:36):
But Elmer wasn't himself. Everybody knows he wasn't himself.

Speaker 20 (13:40):
It'll be tried before Judge Gary.

Speaker 11 (13:43):
Judge Gary is fair and honest.

Speaker 20 (13:45):
And Jerry hoped the DA would like to run for governor.
The Kirkland family has been the biggest contributor to the party.

Speaker 11 (13:52):
Phil I don't know what to do.

Speaker 20 (13:54):
You don't have to do anything. We'll make sure Elmer
gets every possible break. I've already engaged the lawyer from
New York.

Speaker 11 (14:01):
I don't think any lawyer could help this one.

Speaker 20 (14:03):
Can She's never lost a case. See, Oh, come on, now,
you prejudice because she's a warner.

Speaker 8 (14:15):
Interesting question.

Speaker 10 (14:18):
When a man faces trial for his life, no one
can be closer to him than his attorney. And if
the lawyer happens to be a woman, can his wife
ever really feel completely at ease?

Speaker 8 (14:32):
Especially if he's acquitted.

Speaker 10 (14:34):
It means that the most important thing in his life
will have been done for him by another woman. I
just bring this up as a bonus. I'll return shortly
with that too. The hand, they say, is quicker than

(14:59):
the eye, But what then, is quicker than either?

Speaker 13 (15:04):
Why?

Speaker 10 (15:04):
The mind? Of course, mind eye at hand. They were
designed to work in unison and harmony as a team.
But what happens when they seem to be working at
cross purposes? Well, obviously we're in for a great many
differences of opinion.

Speaker 20 (15:22):
Lucy, this is miss Adelaide Gordon. How do you do,
miss Gordon, missus Baker Elmer's wife.

Speaker 11 (15:31):
Tell me, missus Baker, is your husband innocent? How would
I know that? I think a woman knows well, according
to all the evidence, we're not concerned with the evidence. Well,
how can you a lawyer not be concerned with the evidence.
Do you think a jury makes up its mind on
the basis of evidence? I would assume so. A jury

(15:52):
is made up of human beings. Human beings do not
make personal decisions on the basis of facts. I'm not
a big city lawyer, but I would venture to disagree,
would you. I think people are more intelligent than they're
given credit for. Ah, permit me, missus Baker. About twelve
years ago, you were the most popular girl in this town.

(16:13):
You could have had your pick of practically all the
attractive and eligible young man that wasn't that popular. You
chose Elma Baker, who had no money and very poor prospect.
I was in love with Elmer. My point exactly, the
most important decision you ever made in your life had
nothing to do with facts, evidence, or logic. Well, you're

(16:36):
not alone. People don't change the habits of a lifetime
just because they happen to be sitting on a jury.
They'll believe what they want to believe. But in the
court of law, the ever the person sitting on that
jury doesn't know what to believe. Maybe he wants to
believe Elma is innocent, but he looks at you, you're
his wife. He has to see that belief on your faith.

(17:01):
Suppose he doesn't look. There's proof Elmer's guilty. He was there,
his finger prints are on the gun. The best thing
for him to do is to admit it and just
throw himself on the mercy of the course. She'll be
put away for life. Is that what you want to know?
You have no right to say that to me. I'm
just telling you how I feel. Your feelings are of

(17:22):
no importance. Elmer is my client. He becomes the most
important person in the world to me. I don't think
that filled it a wise thing in engaging you. You don't.
This is a small town. You have a brilliant reputation.
People will resent your presence here. They'll feel you're the
big city expert here to show up the local talent.

(17:43):
Let's straighten it out, missus Baker, you wouldn't feel this
way if I were a man. You're jealous of me?
That is the most ridiculous. He's in desperate trouble. You
want to be the one to save it. Ay, I
have no interest in your husband as a man. I'm

(18:04):
considered one of the top ten trial lawyers in the country,
but I won't force myself into this case. I could
be on the next plane out of here.

Speaker 20 (18:13):
Now wait a minute, miss Gordon, you agreed to take
the case.

Speaker 11 (18:15):
Missus Baker can lose it for me. Let the jury
see the doubt and indecision on her face. And we
don't have a chance. We don't have a chance anyhow.
The gun, the fingerprints. Believe he's innocent, Missus Baker. Phil
Hastings here believes it, do you, Phil? Do you really?

Speaker 20 (18:36):
Yes?

Speaker 11 (18:37):
That's why I accepted the assignment, because mister Hastings is
sincerely convinced of your husband's innocence. Missus Baker, you know
Elma better than anyone in your heart. Now, forget the
gun and the fingerprints, and the motive and the opportunity.
Do you believe Elma could commit murder?

Speaker 21 (18:59):
No?

Speaker 11 (19:00):
Believe that when you sit in the court room. If
Bob Kirtland put the squeeze on many people in this town,
there could be others with a motive to kill him.
Is that true, mister Hastings?

Speaker 13 (19:11):
Oh?

Speaker 17 (19:11):
Yes, Let's see if.

Speaker 11 (19:13):
We could trace Elma's movements. He left home at about
what time, Missus Baker, Oh, just about four, and he
headed out toward the Kirtland place. How long would it
take him.

Speaker 15 (19:24):
To get there?

Speaker 11 (19:24):
About half an hour. No one was at the house
except mister Kirkland. Now, the next thing we hear about
Elmer comes from you. Mister Hastings.

Speaker 20 (19:33):
Yes, about eleven thirty, I got a call from Sid
Bella's he owns a bar. He said, I ought to
come down and keep an eye on Elmer, and I
went down there. Elmer was pretty far gone. I couldn't
reason with him in that state, so I stayed with
him till he till he passed out. Then I took

(19:56):
him home.

Speaker 11 (19:57):
And what time was that?

Speaker 9 (20:00):
What time was that, Lucy midnight?

Speaker 11 (20:02):
Midnight exactly? I know because there was a show on
the air that had just gone off. And then what
I managed to get him to bed. He slept through
the night till seven in the morning, when he had
to get up to go to work. He left the
house at four in the afternoon. At four point thirty
he arrived at the Kirkland house. What time did he

(20:22):
show up at the tavern?

Speaker 20 (20:24):
A little after five? Said, I'll confirm that.

Speaker 11 (20:27):
How long would it take to get from the Kirkland
House to Sid's tavern?

Speaker 20 (20:31):
M maybe a half hour and.

Speaker 11 (20:34):
He only spent a few minutes with Bob Kirkland. The
corner places the time of death somewhere around four thirty.
I don't know. It just gets worse and worse no
matter how bad it sounds, Lucy, you just keep leaving.
I'll try sheriff who discovered Bob Kirtland's body, Billy.

Speaker 19 (21:01):
She comes in mornings, does cleaning. She got there eight o'clock.
Front door was opened. She kicked something with her foot.
She looked down. It was a revolver, thirty two caliber
revolver that fired the bullet that killed Bob Kirtland. That's
been established by ballistical tests.

Speaker 11 (21:23):
Did you pick it up?

Speaker 19 (21:24):
She was back to her then she noticed Bob Kirtland
lying on the floor dead. She didn't touch nothing. She's
seen too many murder shows.

Speaker 11 (21:35):
Mm. And this is the gun that's supposed to have
Elma Baker's fingerprints on it.

Speaker 19 (21:41):
Now, I appreciate the fact that a lawyer has to
put it that way, ma'am, But it wasn't supposed to
have it did have Elmer's prints on it.

Speaker 11 (21:51):
How did you find that out so quickly?

Speaker 22 (21:53):
Uh?

Speaker 7 (21:53):
Uh?

Speaker 19 (21:54):
Well, we knew Elmer had gone to seem so we
just did a routine check Princeton City Hall. Elmer's volunteer fireman.
I must say, ma'am, I've never seen a murder case.
There's so much evidence against a man.

Speaker 11 (22:11):
How many murder cases have you seen?

Speaker 19 (22:13):
Sheriff er ma'am, I must admit there you got me.

Speaker 11 (22:22):
I would like to see Elban now please.

Speaker 12 (22:28):
I've heard of you. You mean you're going to defend me. Yes,
but you must cost a fortune.

Speaker 11 (22:36):
I don't come cheaply.

Speaker 9 (22:38):
I could never afford to pin you.

Speaker 11 (22:39):
My fee has been taken care of by whom you
have a good friend, Phil. I won't let him, he's
already done it. Let's talk about important things you. For instance,
I understand you go out and get roaring drunk once
a year. Why I don't know, Yes, you do.

Speaker 12 (23:03):
I guess because I'm a failure.

Speaker 11 (23:07):
In other words, you feel sorry for yourself.

Speaker 13 (23:10):
That's right.

Speaker 9 (23:14):
I wanted to be a writer.

Speaker 11 (23:16):
What stopped you? I'm just not good enough and you
can't accept it.

Speaker 9 (23:24):
I opened the bookshop. I like to be surrounded by
great writing.

Speaker 11 (23:29):
Well, that should make you happy.

Speaker 12 (23:31):
I'm a bad businessman. The only books I sell are
those I like to read myself.

Speaker 23 (23:37):
Consequently, your selection is limited. Yes, well, things turned bad financially.
I had to borrow money from Bob Kirtland. I couldn't
pay it back on time.

Speaker 11 (23:51):
So you went to see him to ask for an extension.

Speaker 9 (23:54):
Yes, that's right.

Speaker 11 (23:55):
How did it.

Speaker 9 (23:56):
Turn out bad? I knew it'd be bad before he
got there.

Speaker 12 (24:01):
Oh, you believe in signs omens.

Speaker 11 (24:07):
It depends.

Speaker 9 (24:09):
I have this new car.

Speaker 11 (24:11):
You were tight for money and you bought a new car.

Speaker 9 (24:14):
What could we do the old one collapsed.

Speaker 12 (24:17):
You can't live without a car in this town. Go ahead,
Kurtlin's Places across the Mule River. Yes, you've got to
go over the new bridge to get there. It's a
big steel suspension bridge.

Speaker 9 (24:30):
I don't even know why I bothered telling you this.
I mean, it's it's stupid.

Speaker 11 (24:34):
You never know.

Speaker 12 (24:37):
Well, they were painting it. They had a crew spraying
this green paint on the bridge. Those fellows are supposed
to be careful. But I got some paint on the
grille of the car.

Speaker 11 (24:50):
Paint.

Speaker 9 (24:50):
Well, it wasn't much. It's just a couple of drops,
but it was just my luck. I knew then things
would go.

Speaker 11 (24:56):
Badly, and they did.

Speaker 9 (25:01):
I asked Bob for some more time. He said no,
and we had some words, and I left just to
go out and tie one on.

Speaker 11 (25:15):
Did you kill him?

Speaker 9 (25:19):
I don't know.

Speaker 11 (25:20):
You were sober at the time.

Speaker 9 (25:23):
I don't know about that either, you see.

Speaker 12 (25:27):
Even to go and talk to Bob Kirkland took more
nerve than I've got when I'm sober. Oh, I bought
a bottle and I kept fortifying myself on the way.

Speaker 9 (25:37):
There, as I remember. That was the text of Bob's
sermon to me.

Speaker 11 (25:44):
Did you kill him?

Speaker 24 (25:47):
I must have?

Speaker 11 (25:50):
That's not an answer we can work with. Did you
kill him?

Speaker 9 (25:53):
I don't know.

Speaker 12 (25:54):
Look, I can't stand the thought of killing. That's how
I've been all my life. I'm absolutely unable to take
another human life. And yet, yes, well there's the gun.
How can we explain my fingerprints on that gun?

Speaker 11 (26:13):
At this point we can't. Let's forget it for now.
You say you are were unable to take a human life.

Speaker 12 (26:22):
Yes, yes, i'd sooner die.

Speaker 9 (26:27):
But yes, the gun?

Speaker 11 (26:32):
What about the gun?

Speaker 9 (26:33):
Well, that's it. I can't explain that gun. What was
I doing with a gun?

Speaker 11 (26:39):
No?

Speaker 8 (26:40):
Waight?

Speaker 11 (26:41):
Did you have a gun when you went to see Kirtland?

Speaker 9 (26:47):
I don't see how, But I remember a gun.

Speaker 11 (26:53):
You remember a gun? Yes, yes, you remember seeing a gun,
carrying a gun, and firing a gun.

Speaker 12 (27:02):
I just I just remember holding a gun. There was
a gun in my hand when that day, that that night.
It's gone from me. I can't really remember what happened,
all right, Maybe I don't want to remember.

Speaker 9 (27:22):
What's the difference.

Speaker 12 (27:23):
The fact is, everything's gone from my memory except that gun.

Speaker 9 (27:30):
I remember holding a gun.

Speaker 10 (27:40):
Slowly but surely it's coming out. He remembers holding a gun.

Speaker 8 (27:47):
How would you like to be his lawyer?

Speaker 10 (27:49):
Miss Adelaide Gordon is supposed to be among the ten
best in the country.

Speaker 8 (27:54):
She's never lost a murder case.

Speaker 10 (27:57):
How would you bet now, Well, don't risk your money.
You'll get the answer in Act three. Beware as long
as you live of judging people by appearances, said a

(28:21):
French philosopher. And so if we must forbear to judge people,
how much more vital is it to withhold our judgment
of things? If a man a strong motive to commit murder,
have him present at the scene of the crime, find
his fingerprints on the murder weapon. And now ask yourself

(28:42):
this question, would you rather be the attorney for the
defense or the prosecution?

Speaker 11 (28:49):
You remember a gun?

Speaker 9 (28:50):
Yes, I remember a gun. A revolver.

Speaker 11 (28:54):
What do you remember about it?

Speaker 9 (28:56):
Nothing?

Speaker 12 (28:57):
I just remember a revolver, holding a revolver in my hand.
Why I don't know, and you fired it. I don't
know where did you get it. I don't like to
keep saying I don't know, but.

Speaker 11 (29:10):
You have to help me. I have to start with something.

Speaker 9 (29:13):
But everyone says, forget.

Speaker 11 (29:14):
What everyone says. Ask yourself, is it possible for you
to kill?

Speaker 12 (29:19):
But how did my fingerprints get on that gun?

Speaker 11 (29:22):
Let me worry about that. Let you worry If you
killed him, then that would account for the fingerprints. You
were desperate, You acted in a frenzy. Why did you
bring the gun? All right? You brought it to scare him,
and that you never meant to use it. You lost

(29:42):
your head, you pulled the trigger. You were so scared,
so disoriented, you even dropped the gun where it could
be found.

Speaker 9 (29:49):
Well, maybe that's what I did.

Speaker 11 (29:53):
I must know for sure. If you're convinced you didn't
do it, then leave. You didn't do it? Did you?
Or did you not kill Bob Kirtland?

Speaker 25 (30:08):
No?

Speaker 9 (30:10):
All right, I'm not a killer. I don't care how
it looks.

Speaker 11 (30:15):
I didn't do it, And that's the defense. Phil. We
have to talk to her. I'm frightened she isn't doing anything.

Speaker 8 (30:29):
Well, maybe it looks that way, but you's what.

Speaker 11 (30:34):
She's supposed to be this big, high powered lawyer, but
she just sits there and nothing happens. The district attorney
makes all the points. If I were on that jury.

Speaker 20 (30:43):
Lucy, it's possible there are legal issues that she's trying
to get certain irregularities reversed by a higher court.

Speaker 11 (30:51):
What irregularities, I don't know.

Speaker 17 (30:54):
I'm not a lawyer.

Speaker 11 (30:55):
Is she a lawyer?

Speaker 15 (30:56):
At least?

Speaker 11 (30:56):
Loud Valentine is well liked in this town.

Speaker 9 (31:00):
Can we do talk to her?

Speaker 11 (31:02):
Maybe she can change Elmer's plea. I mean, this way,
he's sure to be convicted. I'm sorry you're dissatisfied, missus Baker.
I don't know what to say. It's obvious we're losing
this case. Do you believe Elmer murdered Kirtland?

Speaker 22 (31:21):
No?

Speaker 8 (31:22):
Do you Phil No?

Speaker 11 (31:24):
I don't believe it either. How can I change our defense?
It's the truth. Why can't we just say that Elma
was seized by a fit of temporary madness and that's
why he killed Bob Kirtland. You'd be asking me to
base our defense on a lie. Please, Miss Gordon. I
don't know what to think, what to believe. I only

(31:45):
know that this way we are just losing.

Speaker 20 (31:47):
Can you give us some assurance that your line of
defense will be successful?

Speaker 8 (31:52):
Miss Gordon, I'm a lawyer.

Speaker 11 (31:55):
I go with what I believe is the truth. I
believe Elmer is in and I have to go down
the line with it.

Speaker 19 (32:09):
I love here.

Speaker 20 (32:12):
Oh, I'll believe him, Miss Gordon.

Speaker 11 (32:15):
Mind if I ask you a few questions, Sheriff.

Speaker 13 (32:19):
You.

Speaker 23 (32:21):
Case isn't going too well between you and me. It
could be better off record. Why'd you take it?

Speaker 11 (32:30):
I was impressed by Phil Hastings. He's absolutely convinced of
Elma's innocence. And despite the way Lucy talks, so she
and when you look into Elmer's eyes, you know he's
not a killer.

Speaker 19 (32:43):
M None of that seems to be going over with
the jury.

Speaker 11 (32:48):
Well, this jury is different.

Speaker 19 (32:50):
That's the truth. They can't afford to acquit against the evidence.

Speaker 11 (32:55):
Uh. I know about Melissa Kirtland and her influence, and
she hates Elmer. That's understandable. She thinks he killed her father.

Speaker 19 (33:05):
M We she hated her father's just twelve years ago.
She was crazy about Elmer. That's funny. The richest girl
in town falling for the poorest boy. She made no
secret of it. She was out to get him, but
he turned it down and she never did forgive him.

Speaker 11 (33:27):
He could have married Melissa Kirtlin instead he married Lucy.

Speaker 19 (33:32):
Lucy was going steady, well, we thought it was steady
with Phil Hastings. Phil took it hard. He got into
her pretty bad fistfight.

Speaker 6 (33:43):
I know I had to break it up.

Speaker 19 (33:47):
Yes, feels more of a man than most folks ever
given credit for him. He made up with Elmer Marry
the best of friends.

Speaker 11 (33:56):
I see.

Speaker 19 (33:58):
He must have gone into Hawk to hire, are you
even though he knew it had to be for a
lost call.

Speaker 11 (34:04):
Why do you say it's a lost cause?

Speaker 14 (34:07):
Will you?

Speaker 19 (34:10):
It is a wrong lawyer. They're not an offense now,
not the personal. It's just the way it is.

Speaker 14 (34:22):
Please to down miss Gordon.

Speaker 11 (34:26):
Thank you, mister Valentine.

Speaker 26 (34:28):
I must say this is an honor, the adelaide Gordon
visiting an old country lawyer like myself.

Speaker 11 (34:36):
You're much too modest, mister Valentine. The fact is I've
come for a consultation. Have you been following the trial?

Speaker 26 (34:44):
Yes, we've never had anything like it in town.

Speaker 11 (34:49):
You're aware of my line of defense?

Speaker 14 (34:51):
Yes?

Speaker 11 (34:52):
What line would you have used?

Speaker 25 (34:53):
Fame?

Speaker 27 (34:54):
One.

Speaker 26 (34:55):
I would have insisted on Elmer's innocence just as you are.
Why for the same reason I believe in it.

Speaker 11 (35:05):
Well, that's my problem, mister Valentine. You would have the
ability to transfer this belief to the jury. Evidently I don't.

Speaker 26 (35:15):
I think you're doing an excellent job, Miss Gordon. But
trial isn't over yet.

Speaker 11 (35:21):
It is and you know it.

Speaker 9 (35:23):
Well.

Speaker 26 (35:23):
If we could assume that Elmer did not murder Bob Kirkland,
we must ask ourselves the logical question, who did.

Speaker 11 (35:34):
I'm a lawyer, not a detective.

Speaker 26 (35:37):
Sometimes there's little difference. You might ask yourself a question
instead of trying to find out who else may have
wanted to.

Speaker 14 (35:46):
Kill Bob Kirtland.

Speaker 17 (35:48):
Who might have wanted to kill Elmer?

Speaker 12 (35:50):
Baker kill Elmer well sending him to jail for twenty
years her life remounts to the same thing.

Speaker 11 (36:01):
Yes, I see what you mean. Who would want to
kill Ellana?

Speaker 9 (36:13):
Nobody? I mean, I don't have any enemies.

Speaker 11 (36:16):
Think who? You never got into a fight with anyone?

Speaker 1 (36:21):
No?

Speaker 11 (36:21):
Never, Well, that doesn't square with what the sheriff told me.
He said you and Phil Hastings had a terrible brawl
when you took Lucy away from all.

Speaker 9 (36:30):
Well that doesn't count. Why not Phil and I? We
were best friends before I married Lucy, and even.

Speaker 12 (36:37):
Though we had that very brief flare up, we've remained
best friends ever since.

Speaker 11 (36:42):
Go back to the day of the murder. Oh again,
did Phil know you were going to see Bob?

Speaker 9 (36:47):
Yes, yes, he disapproved.

Speaker 12 (36:49):
He said he'd lend me the money to pay part
of the note, and you didn't take it. I like
Phil too much to borrow money from him.

Speaker 11 (36:56):
You left the store and went to see Kirtland. You
drove all the way out there, and you had to
cross what bridge, the Mule River, the big suspension bridge,
and they were painting it.

Speaker 9 (37:13):
Yes, just what lit the fuse? I got this paint
spattered on my grill.

Speaker 11 (37:17):
Then you had your interview with Bob Kirtland, and from
there on your mind is a blank.

Speaker 12 (37:24):
Yes, maybe I did kill him. Look, you get to
be forty, you're headed nowhere. You don't have the ability
or the guts to do what you really want.

Speaker 11 (37:34):
Now, don't even start that line of thought right now.
We can't afford it your honor. The defense calls mister
Peter Garrick. Mister Garrick on the afternoon of the twenty fifth.
Where were you?

Speaker 14 (37:54):
I was on the Mule River Bridge.

Speaker 11 (37:56):
What were you doing there?

Speaker 14 (37:58):
I was there with my crow, were painting the bridge.

Speaker 11 (38:01):
Painting the bridge.

Speaker 28 (38:02):
Well, we were spraying on the first coach, you know
what I mean, the green coat.

Speaker 11 (38:08):
You were there from when to when?

Speaker 28 (38:10):
Well, we start in the morning after the rush at
ten o'clock and we usually quit four thirty before the
night rush.

Speaker 11 (38:18):
You were spraying this paint, you say, cars driving past
they could have caught some of it.

Speaker 28 (38:25):
Yeah, maybe a couple of drops. We keep a bucket
of turpentine and rags at the end of the bridge
and a sign that says use this to remove any
paint that may accident.

Speaker 11 (38:35):
I know, I know. And you stopped at four point thirty.

Speaker 14 (38:39):
Yes, ma'am on the head.

Speaker 11 (38:45):
If it pleases the court, it is our contention that
Elma Baker is innocent. However, this leaves a question if
Elma Baker did not murder Robert Kirtland, who did? At
approximately four point thirty that afternoon someone fired the fatal
bullet into mister Kirtland's body. But who It is my contention,

(39:06):
and I intend to prove that Elma Baker is the
victim of a plot, a carefully designed and brilliantly executed
scheme that almost worked. The defense calls mister Philip Hastings. Me, yes,
mister Hastings. You, mister Hastings, can you account for your

(39:31):
movements on the day of the twenty fifth?

Speaker 3 (39:33):
Well do.

Speaker 27 (39:35):
I have to?

Speaker 11 (39:35):
Yes, mister Hastings, you have to.

Speaker 20 (39:39):
I left my apartment after breakfast. I went to my office,
which is down the street from here. I was busy
all day. I even had lunch sent in, and then
I worked late and I went home. I brought some
work with me, and then at eleven I got a call.

Speaker 8 (39:59):
From Sid Jenkins of Sid's Bar and Grill.

Speaker 29 (40:02):
He said Elmer was.

Speaker 20 (40:03):
Getting a bit hard to handle. So I went there
and I calmed him down and took him home.

Speaker 11 (40:11):
At no time then during the twenty fifth did you
visit the home of mister Bob Kirtland. Why would I
want to please answer?

Speaker 20 (40:21):
Of course not.

Speaker 11 (40:23):
Then on the twenty fifth you had no occasion to
cross the Mule River Bridge. Certainly not, I say you did.
Why I say you killed Bob Kirtland. Why Chancellor are
you charging mister Hastings with murder? I am, your honor,

(40:45):
on what evidence Some years ago Elma Baker took Lucy
away from Phil Hastings, And that's why mister Hastings murdered
Bob Kirtland. Yes, your honor, to make it look as
if Elma did it. Phil never forget Elma, and he
bided his time.

Speaker 13 (41:02):
Oh that's a lie.

Speaker 11 (41:04):
I would appreciate some facts. Counselor Phil Hastings saw a
sudden opportunity to be rid of Elma Baker. With Elma
in jail and out of Lucy's life, Phil could once
again woo her and this time win her. But he
had to maintain the appearance of great friendship, so he

(41:25):
followed Elma to Kirtland's house. When he saw Elma leave,
he went inside shot Bob Kirker. It's a lie, your honor.
I shall present the proof. In just a moment, he
knew Elma would be saggering drunk. He met Elmer at
Sid's bar, took him home, and while Elma was practically
out cold, he made Elma grasp the butt of the revolver,

(41:49):
which is how Elma's fingerprints came to be on it.

Speaker 8 (41:52):
Well, just isn't true.

Speaker 11 (41:53):
After he brought Elmer home. He drove back to the
Kirtland place and dropped the revolver on the floor.

Speaker 20 (42:00):
Balc one trial Durhamy, and.

Speaker 11 (42:02):
There was Elma neatly tied up for the killing. But
Phil had to make sure in the ordinary way Lou
Ballentine would defend Elma. Lou who knows each one of
you in this town, who could have convinced you of
Elma's innocence. So Phil decided to make himself appear a

(42:24):
great friend by calling in a famous outsider. Not one
word is true, chunselor this is all supposition?

Speaker 30 (42:32):
Are their facts?

Speaker 11 (42:35):
Do you still insist, mister Hastings, that you did not
go to the Kirkland house on the twenty fifth?

Speaker 20 (42:43):
I never left this pomp.

Speaker 11 (42:45):
You did not cross the Mule River Bridge, certainly not, then,
your honor, I suggest the court moves to the parking
lot were on the right front grille and the left
rear panel of mister Philip Hastings car. We will find
tiny smudges of the green paint that was sprayed on

(43:07):
the Mule River Bridge on the day of the murder.

Speaker 20 (43:19):
And they did.

Speaker 10 (43:21):
They found the tiny incriminating stains of paint exactly where
she said they would. You've heard the saying for want
of a nail. Well, here Philip Hastings might lament for
the want of a few drops of turpentine. I shall
return shortly.

Speaker 13 (43:51):
Belief.

Speaker 10 (43:52):
They say it moves mountains, but they don't say which way. Well,
you can move them anyway you wish. In the face
of an opposition, you can do great things, provided you
make sure all the little details are taken care of.
If you want to commit a murder, make sure you
don't leave some little, insignificant, tiny loose end dangling. It

(44:17):
can lengthen into a noose. On second thought, don't do it.

Hawthorne in radio version by Roger Brother Tonight from CDC Halifax.

Speaker 32 (46:32):
I can't say as how I'm surprised you're tired.

Speaker 24 (46:36):
What with the young chap like you.

Speaker 32 (46:38):
Was obviously not used to it they're doing walking from
sunrise to the height and doon by the road.

Speaker 33 (46:43):
Ain't hardley tolerable? What with the hating dust?

Speaker 13 (46:46):
Now, Swan?

Speaker 33 (46:51):
You say your name is h.

Speaker 32 (46:55):
One should tell of a Swan down Boston Way, small
dealer in the grocery line.

Speaker 34 (47:04):
He was.

Speaker 32 (47:05):
Might be Kenny yours, it might be thinking, hey, drum
sort of chaff old. Swan made a tidy sum, though
he did in his time, and he always refused to
expand his premises.

Speaker 21 (47:19):
Yes, what would I want with.

Speaker 18 (47:21):
A big shop?

Speaker 32 (47:21):
He used to say, always done well, But treat my
customers well, he says, You get a big shop, he says,
what happens. You get more customers, and you get more worries,
and you get more time to worry in which you
should be spending on your old customers, which you ain't.

Speaker 33 (47:39):
And then where are you?

Speaker 32 (47:40):
He says, hey, hey, well.

Speaker 6 (47:43):
I'll tell you that old swan.

Speaker 32 (47:45):
We're a rightwando thought straight. He did, yeah, ran a
good small business.

Speaker 33 (47:53):
And one day, one.

Speaker 32 (47:56):
Day he looked out his wind and he sees it
all shop crossways being made over into another grocery business, large,
big windows anyway, maining business, and it opens with a
sail and swan.

Speaker 35 (48:15):
Swan.

Speaker 32 (48:15):
He looks across and he sees in the window opposite
he rode up in these big landage sausage sixty five cents,
it says, I'll just see about that, and he writes
in his window, in his window, mine sixty cents, and the
other fellow cuts his right to fifty five. That's his

(48:38):
game is, it, says fun. And he writes up thirty five,
and the new fellow looks across that swan's she's his sign.
He whistles to itself like it puts up sausage twenty
five said, swan never bats a eye ten cents of power,

(49:00):
says ten cents. That new fella, new fellas, he's one sign,
and comes storming into the shop and says.

Speaker 35 (49:09):
Stay here, my man.

Speaker 32 (49:10):
He says, I've been buying sausage wholes hair for years
of course regular thirties.

Speaker 6 (49:15):
Hence, how can you afford.

Speaker 32 (49:17):
A shell at ten when I'm losing my shirt selling
at twenty five? Hey, simple, I don't sell sausage. Hey,
m oh, the darney says, a right need to swim.

Speaker 6 (49:37):
Hey, young fella, wake up, wake up, wake up? He
whoa jenny girl, go.

Speaker 32 (49:42):
Back, here's your bundle. Uh jahn g, look lively. Can't
lad at twenty be a bit more sprightly?

Speaker 1 (49:55):
Hey?

Speaker 32 (49:56):
Hey, now listen, this is where you'll catch the coach
to Boston.

Speaker 5 (50:08):
Okay.

Speaker 32 (50:09):
Now, if I was you, I'd be taking myself that
clump of maples yonder, I'm by the spring, and I'd
shit in the shade and have a nap, maybe till.

Speaker 33 (50:17):
The coach arrives.

Speaker 32 (50:18):
Good enough should be long? Oh shorty three hours? No no, no, no,
don't thank me.

Speaker 24 (50:26):
Lad, it's been a real pleasure to talk.

Speaker 33 (50:29):
You A good listener.

Speaker 5 (50:31):
Yeah.

Speaker 36 (51:14):
Uh, look at him lying there in rusty slough.

Speaker 24 (51:20):
Hm.

Speaker 33 (51:22):
The shun is scarce past.

Speaker 29 (51:24):
The point of noon when he sleeps?

Speaker 33 (51:28):
Is this life hairs? God?

Speaker 9 (51:30):
Just that this?

Speaker 36 (51:31):
You should sleep without cares and the luxury of leisure
while I swept my way through anxieties and toil. Why
should I endure hardships while this callow lad enjoys his
ease in the heat of the day. Perhaps I becaust

(51:53):
of God?

Speaker 37 (51:56):
Doth the serpent bruise my heels?

Speaker 32 (52:00):
I cannot a.

Speaker 38 (52:02):
Curse upon ease and a plague upon luxury. Say I,
and thou, lad enjoy thy repose for time, and the
world shall soon be no more, thy friend. Then shall
life load thee with cares and suffering?

Speaker 6 (52:26):
Joy shall depart from me forever?

Speaker 5 (52:50):
Two more miles to go?

Speaker 39 (52:52):
Oh, really, I must be getting too stout, much too warm.

Speaker 40 (53:00):
Eh, time was, and I would have skipped all the
way to market.

Speaker 11 (53:08):
No, I wouldn't be going at all if it wasn't
for that lad of mine.

Speaker 41 (53:13):
God love him.

Speaker 11 (53:16):
He should have had a father.

Speaker 24 (53:18):
Oh, bless my soul.

Speaker 42 (53:21):
That's the first prayer I've had answered in twenty years.
A man, Nay, let me see, got a man, A healthy,
grown up boy, fine of limb, curly hair.

Speaker 39 (53:40):
Rod shoulders, fine nose too. Maybe maybe if I just
sit near.

Speaker 43 (53:49):
Him for a spell.

Speaker 11 (53:51):
It's so very warm this afternoon. M eighteen. Would you
say he was.

Speaker 24 (54:01):
Twenty?

Speaker 11 (54:01):
Maybe twenty? And that's the age I was myself when
no Ma's the parsons.

Speaker 42 (54:11):
Get those thoughts out of your head this minute, boys,
only a mere chick.

Speaker 11 (54:17):
You on your way to market to sell cheese, Skip
off your vein hussy.

Speaker 1 (54:43):
And I say unto you, brethren, beware, beware the foul.
Before I say unto you, he doth ever lay snares
and bits to trap the young men, and the old
Satan dof lurk in the flesh of those who reveal

(55:05):
their reposeful bodies to the common view of passers by.
He do think's debits so and he enragees the imagination,
and heth the passions of those who look.

Speaker 2 (55:19):
Upon his sensual fleshly ease.

Speaker 1 (55:23):
Witness now this youth, this torpidal luptuary. I say unto
you again, brethren, that he has delivered his soul up
until belzip Bop has deprived himself of his humanity, is
no more worthy than to be called a swine of
the prodigal sun.

Speaker 32 (55:45):
Or here he lies an awful.

Speaker 44 (55:48):
Instance of that drunkenness by the roadside. This instance has
God afforded me, and it shall be rots into the
text of this evening's discord.

Speaker 6 (56:28):
I say, driver, good god Man, you're trying to kill us.
What the devil you're doing me? Holp me f of
course you do it?

Speaker 45 (56:36):
Driver, I say that, driving, Get up, Get up, I say,
don't scold.

Speaker 46 (56:40):
Him, he must be hurt.

Speaker 6 (56:43):
No, yes, you all right?

Speaker 46 (56:46):
Indeed, Henry, thank you.

Speaker 6 (56:47):
I'm quite recovered, my dear wife. I'm so glad, driver,
I say that.

Speaker 2 (56:52):
Are you all right?

Speaker 33 (56:53):
The man just a bit of a noongser man?

What about this?

Speaker 13 (57:12):
Well?

Speaker 33 (57:14):
Yes, on the wheel?

Speaker 49 (57:17):
Ask him about the damage, Henry, And he damaged the vehicle.

Speaker 33 (57:21):
It hasn't done much.

Speaker 6 (57:22):
It hasn't done it yet. Hello, is that a brook?
I sees? Ever, he needs the trees a little spring.

Speaker 13 (57:32):
And if you and the lady you would like to
fit in the shade, I'll.

Speaker 24 (57:36):
Get the wheel off.

Speaker 6 (57:38):
What are you saying?

Speaker 50 (57:39):
I did?

Speaker 21 (57:40):
And the lady out?

Speaker 6 (57:41):
When you driving?

Speaker 32 (57:42):
And pass me my cane?

Speaker 33 (57:48):
There you are?

Speaker 11 (57:50):
Thank you.

Speaker 46 (57:51):
Can you manage, Henry?

Speaker 6 (57:53):
Yes, of course I can manage. Yeah, damnition you hurt? No,
just gave my foot one devil of a twine.

Speaker 45 (58:05):
Come on, my dear, let's get into the shade.

Speaker 5 (58:08):
Help.

Speaker 49 (58:11):
Yes, my love, I do wish you would not swear
before the driver.

Speaker 6 (58:15):
Good heavens, I'm sorry, my dear. Was it his turn?

Speaker 51 (58:19):
What talking?

Speaker 6 (58:24):
Forgive me?

Speaker 45 (58:25):
Austa always was a bit of a wag. You know
that's why a certain young lady married me.

Speaker 46 (58:33):
No, damn, Henry, for heaven's.

Speaker 6 (58:36):
Sake, Augusta, you haven't got my goat.

Speaker 46 (58:38):
You need to be glad. I haven't got your language.
I certainly lost your respect now.

Speaker 45 (58:43):
Augusta, my dear, you know that can't be true. You
are old to me. You must know that always have.

Speaker 46 (58:49):
Been always Henry, or never doubted it. And what about
our boy boy?

Speaker 6 (58:57):
You think I can forget him?

Speaker 45 (58:59):
I love, no, I never shall, for he was a
copy of you, my dear, in good looks, in fine
manners and gentle nature. When I look upon you, I
think of him, and his memory wears your face.

Speaker 46 (59:16):
Kind You are Henry nonsense, my dear.

Speaker 49 (59:19):
Take off your shoe, my dear, let me bathe your
foot in the spring.

Speaker 6 (59:22):
No, let me rather make you a leaf couple.

Speaker 45 (59:27):
I used to make them as a lad, and bring
you some water to see.

Speaker 6 (59:32):
Henry quit now, my dear, Shall we not alone stand
behind me? Any intruder shall feel.

Speaker 46 (59:41):
My stick, Make no noise, for we are the intruders.

Speaker 3 (59:45):
What can you mean.

Speaker 46 (59:47):
Beneath that tole maple tree? Do not see a sleeper?

Speaker 9 (59:50):
By my soul?

Speaker 45 (59:51):
You are right, master, Hold up your gown and let
us approach a little close.

Speaker 46 (59:57):
You must not disturb him.

Speaker 49 (01:00:00):
Hmmm, how soundly he sleeps?

Speaker 6 (01:00:05):
From what a depth he draws? That easy breath.

Speaker 46 (01:00:08):
That suppose is an easy mind?

Speaker 45 (01:00:10):
Such sleep as that brought on without an opiate would
be worth more to me than my savings in gold
has youth?

Speaker 46 (01:00:18):
Besides, even quiet and healthy age does not sleep like this.

Speaker 6 (01:00:22):
True, a slumber is no more like his than our
wake for.

Speaker 49 (01:00:26):
Andsome youth in the chamber of trees a fine lad,
My dear, Look, there's a sunbeam glimmering down upon his face.
Do you think you can contrive to twist a small
branch to intercept it lest.

Speaker 46 (01:00:37):
The boy wakes?

Speaker 24 (01:00:38):
Of course, my love.

Speaker 46 (01:00:42):
Thank you, Henry, slumber is preserved.

Speaker 6 (01:00:46):
My dear, you sound quite maternal.

Speaker 46 (01:00:49):
I'm very nice. It will be my love to be
maternal again.

Speaker 45 (01:00:53):
Gus, You know we cannot replace what we lost in
poor young.

Speaker 46 (01:00:58):
Harry, we had never really tried, are.

Speaker 45 (01:01:00):
You not forgetting your sister's boy, David? I would have
been more than glad to have been a father to him,
But you remember how.

Speaker 5 (01:01:09):
He treated us?

Speaker 45 (01:01:10):
Very hurt by him, Henry hurt well, perhaps a little.
Although I expected that he would never love us, I
was disappointed more that he proved how my misgivings about
him were well founded.

Speaker 46 (01:01:22):
Shall have to forget him? I suppose we can.

Speaker 6 (01:01:25):
No, Yes, I think we can forget him.

Speaker 45 (01:01:28):
Yet it remains that the one great sorrow of an
otherwise very happy life.

Speaker 6 (01:01:35):
And we have been very happy, haven't we?

Speaker 46 (01:01:38):
My life very very happy?

Speaker 45 (01:01:40):
My dear, the one great pleasure that would have crowned
our happiness is denied to us. Nothing would have given
me greater pride. And to see our boy grow.

Speaker 46 (01:01:52):
Up to man, my dear God would not have it.

Speaker 6 (01:01:56):
So, yes, I fear so.

Speaker 45 (01:01:59):
We have wealth greater than we can ever spend, and
yet we have no air.

Speaker 46 (01:02:06):
We shall waken the boy with our talk?

Speaker 6 (01:02:08):
No, no, he only stirs my love. He cannot have
heard us.

Speaker 46 (01:02:12):
Must have been very tired. I wonder where he came from.

Speaker 6 (01:02:16):
Oh, who can tell? His shoes are dirty? Perhaps he's
walked a long way, there's a.

Speaker 46 (01:02:22):
Button missing from his jacket or and his sleeve is torn.

Speaker 6 (01:02:25):
So it is I hadn't noticed. That's your woman's eye.

Speaker 46 (01:02:30):
My dear mother's eye.

Speaker 6 (01:02:31):
I think, well, he may be on his way home.

Speaker 46 (01:02:36):
He may not have a home.

Speaker 49 (01:02:39):
Perhaps Providences dat him there, how so, and brought us
here to find him.

Speaker 6 (01:02:45):
Come, come, my dear, What nonsense?

Speaker 49 (01:02:47):
Is not God wished to replace for us the loss
of our son?

Speaker 6 (01:02:50):
It is possible he might. We do not deserve his favors.

Speaker 45 (01:02:53):
Why do you say that you are forgetting your nephew,
my dear?

Speaker 6 (01:02:57):
Was he not God's means.

Speaker 17 (01:02:59):
To try us?

Speaker 46 (01:03:00):
So we sought to make him our son?

Speaker 49 (01:03:02):
Providence did not put him in our way like this
boy here, Henry?

Speaker 25 (01:03:07):
Tell me?

Speaker 46 (01:03:07):
Does he put you in mind of someone?

Speaker 6 (01:03:09):
I cannot say?

Speaker 46 (01:03:11):
Do you think I see a likeness to our departed Harry?
Shall we waken him?

Speaker 27 (01:03:16):
To what purpose?

Speaker 6 (01:03:17):
We know nothing of this youth's character, but that.

Speaker 46 (01:03:19):
Open countenance his innocens.

Speaker 6 (01:03:22):
Sleep, My dear, this is absurd.

Speaker 46 (01:03:24):
Henry, look waken him to please me? Tell him that
you offer him a.

Speaker 49 (01:03:28):
Home, a livelihood, security, wells more than he can ever
want to ask.

Speaker 46 (01:03:34):
Him to be us.

Speaker 6 (01:03:35):
Why should we do this for you?

Speaker 46 (01:03:37):
Nay, Henry, do it? I beg of you for me,
my dear. Shall we waken him?

Speaker 13 (01:03:43):
Sir?

Speaker 6 (01:03:43):
The wheel is back on again. Are you ready to continue,
my love?

Speaker 46 (01:03:49):
Yes, Henry, I am ready.

Speaker 20 (01:03:51):
Now.

Speaker 45 (01:03:52):
This asylum for unfortunate men of business I was discussing earlier.

Speaker 27 (01:03:57):
I think it.

Speaker 6 (01:03:58):
Should be quite a magnificent.

Speaker 50 (01:04:16):
No, not so.

Speaker 52 (01:04:18):

Speaker 6 (01:05:17):
What of that?

Speaker 11 (01:05:18):
He's asleep? That is now well? Let me get a
breath of air into my old chest and take a
look at him.

Speaker 46 (01:05:26):
Don't you feel well good?

Speaker 11 (01:05:28):
Or well enough?

Speaker 15 (01:05:28):

First to speed? Be so still?

Speaker 49 (01:05:40):
I should not have seen you, all right, but I
was bending to tie my guard when he stood.

Bless my soul.

Speaker 11 (01:05:45):

Speaker 35 (01:05:47):
Did he see you?

Speaker 46 (01:05:48):
He did not, said, there's no need to get yourself excited?

Speaker 54 (01:05:52):
Is that he's not as if you're branded into a
gentleman's bedding by room?

Speaker 46 (01:05:57):
Did he go away quietly and let him enjoy? He's
rest sweep?

Speaker 56 (01:06:01):

Bank and Trust Company where Gene Evans used to work,
you can hear the clock the top Amy Simple McPherson's
Angelus Temple.

Speaker 59 (01:16:10):
It happened the morning after I became engaged to Harold.
I got to the bank a little early that morning,
hoping i'd be able to see him for a minute
before we opened for business. And sure enough, Harold was
just hanging up his hat and coat when I came
in the door. You see, I'm one of the junior
tellers at the main branch here in town. Or rather
I was, and Harold is assistant manager.

Speaker 53 (01:16:31):
That's how we met.

Speaker 59 (01:16:32):
So this morning I didn't stop at my own cage,
but went right on through the gate and walked up
quietly behind Helend Hello, Donald, what why, mister Rasin, don't
you remember me?

Speaker 15 (01:16:42):
I'm the girl Jane?

Speaker 20 (01:16:43):
Please?

Speaker 40 (01:16:44):
Good morning Johnson's Uh, miss Evans, would you step into
my office for a moment?

Speaker 15 (01:16:50):
Why said.

Speaker 32 (01:16:56):
Jane?

Speaker 53 (01:16:57):
Really, you mustn't I mean out, why do anything.

Speaker 28 (01:17:00):
I just.

Speaker 53 (01:17:02):
Don't you see, Hell, what if they have, they'll know
about it in a day or two.

Speaker 15 (01:17:05):
Anyway, that's just the point, my dear. They mustn't.

Speaker 11 (01:17:08):
They mustn't.

Speaker 53 (01:17:08):
But we're going to tell our friends are day.

Speaker 40 (01:17:10):
And I thought you understood all that. You know how
the bank frowns on office romances. After we're married, it'll
be different.

Speaker 11 (01:17:16):
But hell, this is different.

Speaker 53 (01:17:18):
We're in game.

Speaker 60 (01:17:18):
Nevertheless, my dear, the policy of the bank is stupid.

Speaker 53 (01:17:21):
Fully on the policy of the bank.

Speaker 11 (01:17:22):
This is our base.

Speaker 15 (01:17:23):
But Jane, the bank is my career, and I'm only thinking.

Speaker 53 (01:17:25):
Of the bank, and I'm thinking of our life.

Speaker 11 (01:17:28):
To Jane, please be practical.

Speaker 40 (01:17:30):
In my position here, I simply must live up to
the standards that the bank's.

Speaker 53 (01:17:33):
Bank the bank.

Speaker 59 (01:17:34):
Sometimes I wish I could meet somebody, judge, somebody who
hated bank. It wasn't a very good way to start
off an engagement, or even to start off a day's work.

Speaker 22 (01:17:46):
For that matter.

Speaker 59 (01:17:48):
I went back to my cage feeling miserable. Then I
got out my cash for the day, including a little
package of twenty five one thousand dollars bills that a
client of ours always called for on Friday.

Speaker 53 (01:17:58):
We never asked Friday in the bank's business.

Speaker 59 (01:18:00):
And I knocked my cash door and put the money away.
Then it was ten o'clock and I opened my window
for business. There weren't many people in the bank yet,
but at my window there were two men.

Speaker 15 (01:18:12):
Good morning, Good morning.

Speaker 61 (01:18:14):
Can I help you?

Speaker 9 (01:18:15):
This is a stick up.

Speaker 40 (01:18:17):
Just take it easy and do what we tell you
and you won't get hurt. But my friend here has
got a gun under that newspaper he's carrying.

Speaker 15 (01:18:22):
Done and I got the user.

Speaker 2 (01:18:23):
Just what do you want me to do?

Speaker 5 (01:18:26):
Here's a paper bag, fill it up.

Speaker 40 (01:18:27):
Yes, all right, And don't forget those twenty five genius
that George Oliver calls for every Friday.

Speaker 15 (01:18:34):
The worst all stall know all about him. That's one
reason we're here.

Speaker 60 (01:18:37):
Don't make any funny loose, sister, because if.

Speaker 62 (01:18:39):
You do, it's.

Speaker 59 (01:18:47):
I'd often wondered what I'd do if this ever happened,
But now I couldn't even think, and I brumbled with
the money.

Speaker 53 (01:18:53):
I looked at the two men. One of them was
about thirty five, dark.

Speaker 59 (01:18:58):
Haired, square jaw, hard blue eyes. The other, the one
with the gun, was a nervous, evil looking boy about
twenty one. I knew that they meant everything they said.
I glanced sideways for just a minute towards Harold's office scene,
and as luck would have it, he was just coming
out the door, and he must have seen that something
was wrong, because he started right over to my rom coors.

Speaker 53 (01:19:17):
Just a slap pindle.

Speaker 15 (01:19:19):
I'm trying to hurry, not paper only. Never mind the change.
Who's start coming over here?

Speaker 53 (01:19:25):
That's mister Osborne, that the manager.

Speaker 40 (01:19:27):
All right, just don't try to make any bright conversation.

Speaker 22 (01:19:29):
I'll do the talking about.

Speaker 40 (01:19:30):
Yeah, is there anything I can do here, Miss Evans? Yes,
let's stand right way on and keep quiet. What don't
look so hurried? We've heard of banks being held up before. Oh,
come on, miss, hand it over.

Speaker 13 (01:19:42):
We haven't got all day.

Speaker 5 (01:19:43):
Yes, here you are.

Speaker 20 (01:19:45):
Thanks.

Speaker 60 (01:19:46):
We ought to take her along, It's crazy, come on,
we ought to take No.

Speaker 40 (01:19:49):
No, you can't do that.

Speaker 15 (01:19:50):
Miss Evans is one of my most custant employees.

Speaker 60 (01:19:52):
And ice you are now I know we're gonna take
her along.

Speaker 15 (01:19:56):
You're a full summy.

Speaker 19 (01:19:57):
Yeah, well, Harris here.

Speaker 60 (01:19:58):
Don't think I'm so dumb the house, because you know
what happens to your girlfriend if you set the cups
on us. Yeah, come on, come on, come on, don't
do anything here.

Speaker 53 (01:20:09):
I'll be all right, I'll be all right.

Speaker 59 (01:20:11):
Why Why would I tell a couple of bandits who
came in to hold up the bank that I was
engaged to home, particularly when Harold was the manager of
the bank.

Speaker 53 (01:20:28):
Oh it was crazy, but there were a lot of crazy.

Speaker 59 (01:20:31):
Things I did that day that I didn't understand myself
until Lady mortually when I told them that they took
me along as a hostage. Well, the next thing I knew,
I was sitting in the front seat of a big
blue car beside the one called Frank. The other one
called Sonny had tied a blindfold over my eyes. Once

(01:20:51):
we drove in somewhere, and for fifteen or twenty minutes
there was a lot of banging and clattering around the car.

Speaker 20 (01:21:00):
Gone.

Speaker 59 (01:21:01):
At first I was too frightened to even breathe, and
then I began to get angry. Just what do you
think you're going to do with me?

Speaker 13 (01:21:12):
I did the truth.

Speaker 15 (01:21:12):
I haven't quite made up my mind. Eh, well I
have shut up, Sonny.

Speaker 53 (01:21:17):
Look, I demand at least you take this silly blindfold off.

Speaker 60 (01:21:21):
Oh no, we couldn't do that, baby, then you might
see how we'd strip this car down.

Speaker 11 (01:21:26):
Just now, change the food and the fenders.

Speaker 15 (01:21:28):
Shut up like me, talk so much?

Speaker 60 (01:21:30):
What's the difference. She ain't gonna be around. Shut up,
it's a matter you're getting soft.

Speaker 40 (01:21:37):
No, but if thank wraps enough without having some trigger
happy punk.

Speaker 60 (01:21:41):
Of a kip, you better not talk to me that way.

Speaker 15 (01:21:42):
You talk to you anyway.

Speaker 3 (01:21:43):
I want to.

Speaker 15 (01:21:46):
Watch out the fact of cops. Huh, cops.

Speaker 40 (01:21:50):
You don't think the little lady's boyfriend is going.

Speaker 15 (01:21:51):
And want to bet too much? Annie with you, Miss Evans.

Speaker 59 (01:21:55):
I'm sure I don't know what you're talking about. All
I know is at least Herold isn't cowardly bullying.

Speaker 40 (01:22:03):
I'm sure Harold is the perfect gentleman. I gotta hunch
he's also the perfect banker.

Speaker 53 (01:22:09):
I don't know what you're talking about.

Speaker 40 (01:22:12):
You just don't want to admit what I'm talking about,
which is that in spite of anything that might happen
to you.

Speaker 15 (01:22:16):
Harold will turn us in and have met. He wouldn't know,
but we can check on that. Turn on the radio.

Speaker 53 (01:22:27):
What's that going to do?

Speaker 15 (01:22:28):

Yes, well, I guess you're all right, but you know

I know that. Sure, all right? Check him up Rand now, sunny,
they're leaving you. Sure?

Speaker 40 (01:25:32):
Yeah, Well, miss Evans, I'm afraid that under the circumstances,
you'll have to put up with our company a little longer.

Speaker 15 (01:25:45):
That wasn't as bad as all.

Speaker 24 (01:25:46):
That wasn't.

Speaker 15 (01:25:48):
Well, it wasn't.

Speaker 24 (01:25:53):
She fled from right in the course.

Speaker 53 (01:25:56):
Does that answer your question?

Speaker 15 (01:25:57):
Yeah, I guess it does.

Speaker 66 (01:26:07):
That was crazy too.

Speaker 5 (01:26:09):
Here.

Speaker 59 (01:26:09):
I was my life completely in this big AP's hands,
and I had to side his face. I knew I'd
made him angry and he was even more dangerous. I
hurt his pride, but there was nothing to do about
it now. For a long time, we just drove along
and nobody said anything. We were crossing a stretch of
desert heading towards a mountain range. We just passed through

(01:26:30):
a little town. I saw the car pull out of
a side road as we flashed by, but neither of
the two men did, and all of a sudden my
mind began to race, thinking that maybe now was coming
my chance to escape, and wondering what I could do.
Then my blood ran cold again.

Speaker 60 (01:26:46):
The way they were talking, they still heading for the
same place for Yeah, and the mountain place.

Speaker 15 (01:26:51):
That's right.

Speaker 11 (01:26:52):
What about miss Spitfires.

Speaker 15 (01:26:53):
I'll take care of that when the time comes. She
knows too much.

Speaker 67 (01:26:57):
That's right.

Speaker 11 (01:26:59):
The flight thought it was getting suck.

Speaker 56 (01:27:00):
What would you do?

Speaker 11 (01:27:01):
You know what we gotta do, don't you.

Speaker 15 (01:27:03):
Yeah, well, I'm not right out here in the open desert.
That's a cinch. The mountains, Yeah, maybe the mountains. Maybe
better not be over.

Speaker 11 (01:27:15):
Cops again, look right behind us.

Speaker 15 (01:27:17):
Yeah, those others must have got to think of things over.

Speaker 40 (01:27:20):
Cops in the middle of the desert and no one
in sight for miles.

Speaker 15 (01:27:23):
So you're talking about talking about this, Sonny.

Speaker 53 (01:27:26):
I've been waiting to do this all day.

Speaker 21 (01:27:28):
Hey, you're crazy.

Speaker 11 (01:27:29):
If we get them before they get us, that's all
they should bag.

Speaker 40 (01:27:35):
They had shut at that tires.

Speaker 11 (01:27:38):
You're here, Okay, they hit.

Speaker 15 (01:27:42):
Us, and that's not supposed to happen the way you
saw it in the movies. Huh you me, Yeah, you
get down down on the floor.

Speaker 53 (01:27:48):
What are you gonna do?

Speaker 15 (01:27:49):
There's only one thing to do now, I've like.

Speaker 53 (01:28:00):
At first, I wasn't afraid at all. He was even
a little exciting.

Speaker 59 (01:28:04):
I kept thinking that maybe in just a few minutes
I was going to be rescued, and wondering what Harold
would say, and at the same time feeling the asileration.

Speaker 53 (01:28:12):
Of being in a race and wanting my side to win.

Speaker 59 (01:28:15):
Of course, I was crazy too, And suddenly the car
took a sickening lurch. I scrambled up onto the seat again.
We were out of the desert, now climbing a long,
winding hill which twisted up towards the mountains. The police
car was falling behind, but it was still flowering us.
We had another curve. I looked down for just a minute.
There seemed to be no road under my side of

(01:28:37):
the cart off only a sheer dropped down to a
canyon filled with huge boulders one hundred feet below.

Speaker 53 (01:28:44):
We hit the other side of the curb and straightened out.

Speaker 11 (01:28:46):
And I was frightened now all right, I was weak,
and I was sick from fear.

Speaker 15 (01:28:51):
I say, down on the floor.

Speaker 24 (01:28:52):
I can't.

Speaker 53 (01:28:53):
Frank, what car?

Speaker 66 (01:28:54):
Please get your hand?

Speaker 15 (01:28:54):
What you gotta kick? I know what I'm doing.

Speaker 53 (01:28:57):
Please break shop.

Speaker 40 (01:28:58):
Please might be all right for you, lady, but it
wouldn't be so good for me. Take an easy, kid,
Oh your eyes like you're doing Loreller cosy.

Speaker 15 (01:29:06):
You'll be all right.

Speaker 53 (01:29:08):
Frank will be killed.

Speaker 15 (01:29:09):
Do you think I'm running for instead of fighting?

Speaker 68 (01:29:10):
Just so?

Speaker 15 (01:29:10):
Nobody will be killed, not even cops.

Speaker 53 (01:29:12):
Frank, look out wheel, I told you away.

Speaker 15 (01:29:16):
I hate this.

Speaker 53 (01:29:23):
I saw his fist rush up towards the point of
my jaw.

Speaker 69 (01:29:33):
When I woke up.

Speaker 59 (01:29:34):
It was mid afternoon and I was lying on a
bed in a bare little room of what.

Speaker 53 (01:29:37):
Was obviously a mountain cabin.

Speaker 59 (01:29:40):
Through the one window, all I could see was the
jumble of rocks and boulders piled up against the mountain side,
and I felt my chin. I was sore, there's a
little bruise on it, but aside from that, I seemed
to be all in one piece. Then suddenly I heard voices.
They were coming from the next room through the crack
of the door left measure to a jar, so I

(01:30:00):
crept over.

Speaker 40 (01:30:01):
Listen, I don't worry, I'll handle it, okay, right, shore,
I go on down to the town and get some grub,
like I told you.

Speaker 15 (01:30:09):
Okay, right, yeah, ah, no, get going Okay.

Speaker 59 (01:30:21):
I stood there by the door, frozen with fear. I
didn't need to hear any more to know what they'd
been talking about. For a second, I thought of escape,
and I looked wildly over towards the window.

Speaker 53 (01:30:32):
It's too late. The door was already swinging over her.

Speaker 15 (01:30:37):
Oh been listening.

Speaker 24 (01:30:39):
Huh?

Speaker 15 (01:30:41):
Yes, how do you feel all right?

Speaker 9 (01:30:46):
Ah?

Speaker 15 (01:30:47):
Glad to see her up and around?

Speaker 28 (01:30:50):
Why?

Speaker 59 (01:30:51):
Because it's it's against your principles to kill women who
are unconscious.

Speaker 4 (01:30:59):
Uh.

Speaker 40 (01:31:03):
There's a path down the back side of the mountain
that leads into the main highway. It's four or five
miles long and pretty rugged, but you have to.

Speaker 15 (01:31:07):
Be able to make it before dark.

Speaker 8 (01:31:08):
If you'll hurry.

Speaker 15 (01:31:10):
Oh, then answer your question, Yes, sir, I guess it does.

Speaker 29 (01:31:18):
Why don't you better get going?

Speaker 25 (01:31:20):
Ha?

Speaker 11 (01:31:20):
How do you know?

Speaker 40 (01:31:21):
Cause you're going to promise me not to, aren't you. Yes,
what you have to say is that I slugged you.
That's all you remembered. Soil you woke up by the
side of the road.

Speaker 22 (01:31:34):
We'll be out of here and.

Speaker 9 (01:31:34):
Over the border by morning angry?

Speaker 53 (01:31:37):
What about Sunny?

Speaker 15 (01:31:39):
I can handle, Sonny.

Speaker 53 (01:31:42):
I guess I do owe you something after all?

Speaker 15 (01:31:44):
Me why my life? I play strictly for me.

Speaker 40 (01:31:51):
I just don't want that punk kid with his movie
idea of cops and robbers to be hanging a murder rap.

Speaker 29 (01:31:55):
On his sa'saw.

Speaker 53 (01:31:57):
You're you're a strange man to.

Speaker 15 (01:31:59):
Be a a a crook.

Speaker 40 (01:32:02):
Listen, there are just two kinds of guys in the world,
right guys and wrong guys. And the wrong kind can
be the usual bum with a gun in his hand,
or he can be a pillar of society that sits
all day behind a big, shiny desk. He can be
kind to his mother and nice to little kids, have
a lot of fancy excuses and reasons he gives himself,
or there just no reasons at all, like me.

Speaker 15 (01:32:25):
But a wrong guy is still a wrong guy. He's
no good. Well thanks anyway, don't anybody get going now?

Speaker 62 (01:32:39):
By the way, Uh.

Speaker 15 (01:32:42):
Sorry, I hit you.

Speaker 59 (01:32:44):
That's all right?

Speaker 53 (01:32:45):
Uh I, I guess I had it coming, and.

Speaker 15 (01:32:50):
I'm sorry I'll let you get into this mess in
the first place.

Speaker 11 (01:32:54):
But good what.

Speaker 29 (01:32:58):
A kiss?

Speaker 62 (01:33:01):
I meant that?

Speaker 11 (01:33:03):
Did you?

Speaker 5 (01:33:04):
Yeah?

Speaker 11 (01:33:06):
Frank, so did I.

Speaker 15 (01:33:16):
Trail hereafter off.

Speaker 60 (01:33:19):
Saw down ahead of me on the turi of the road.
I just had time to turn around and get back.

Speaker 15 (01:33:22):
You've still got the thing, huh.

Speaker 11 (01:33:24):
I always hoping you hadn't done nothing yet. She's about
the only ace we got left for him.

Speaker 15 (01:33:27):
Take the south window, I'll take the west wind. I'm
trying to go, knocking them off at the lonely make
it worse, just keeping covered so they can't rush us.

Speaker 30 (01:33:32):
Yeah, yeah, well I got a clean shot.

Speaker 70 (01:33:34):
You'll know what I tell you.

Speaker 15 (01:33:37):
Can you see him? Yeah?

Speaker 11 (01:33:38):
Get it down behead of big rocks, and that's as
far as.

Speaker 13 (01:33:40):
They can get.

Speaker 40 (01:33:41):
That's as far as they could get, even if they
had an army. Until it gets dark, Rank, we could
turn the car lights on him.

Speaker 15 (01:33:47):
They don't chewt him out it.

Speaker 60 (01:33:47):
We can hold them, Frank.

Speaker 11 (01:33:48):
We got enough ammunition.

Speaker 15 (01:33:49):
He can't eat ammunition.

Speaker 40 (01:33:51):
Maybe they can't get up, but we can't get down either.

Speaker 15 (01:33:54):
I can't stay here forever.

Speaker 53 (01:33:55):
They'll never take me alive, never take me about it?

Speaker 15 (01:33:58):
Well, yeah, try using Yeah, I head for a change.

Speaker 53 (01:34:03):
Oh yes, Frank, what could it be?

Speaker 4 (01:34:09):
I don't know.

Speaker 40 (01:34:12):
The boys seem to have stopped the artillery barrage too. Oh,
let you don't answer to you kidding? What's the difference.
You don't think we're gonna kill anybody?

Speaker 15 (01:34:20):
We're not home, do you?

Speaker 5 (01:34:22):
But yeah?

Speaker 40 (01:34:25):
Oh yeah, uh huh, yeah, she's here. Sure, she's alright, Frank.
Who is this your boyfriend, Harold?

Speaker 30 (01:34:37):
Harold?

Speaker 15 (01:34:38):
He came with the cops.

Speaker 40 (01:34:40):
He's on the forest ranger's emergency car box just down
the road.

Speaker 53 (01:34:43):
Let me talk to him.

Speaker 15 (01:34:45):
Worried about him?

Speaker 53 (01:34:45):
No, No, it isn't that.

Speaker 59 (01:34:46):
But let me talk to him, sure, Harold, Yes, yes,
so am I? No, no, nothing, they've been quite all right, Yes,
of course they are. No, there's nothing to prevent them
from killing me any time they want to Listen, Harold,

and me, isn't it?

Speaker 15 (01:35:14):
Yes?

Speaker 11 (01:35:15):
I know?

Speaker 57 (01:35:15):
All right?

Speaker 59 (01:35:15):
Wait a minute, right, you said you were near the border.
How long would it take you to get there?

Speaker 9 (01:35:20):
A couple of hours?

Speaker 13 (01:35:22):
One would put us in the clear.

Speaker 53 (01:35:23):
Would you give them back the money and me?

Speaker 15 (01:35:27):
Well, at tops go for a deal like that.

Speaker 11 (01:35:29):
They've got to Harold. But what's getting dark got to do?
Is it?

Speaker 53 (01:35:34):
Of course you can't storm the place and expect to.

Speaker 11 (01:35:36):
Find me alive.

Speaker 59 (01:35:38):
They'll listen, Harold, Harold, they'll give back the money. Guess
I'll bring it down myself. But you've got to give
them one hour's start. Who you can just say they
rescued me and the money, but the but the men
got away, No, Harold, nothing like that. You've got to
promise me, Harold, on your word of honor, your solemn
word of honor.

Speaker 66 (01:36:00):
All right, they'll do.

Speaker 11 (01:36:03):
It, okay, are you muty chance, Harold?

Speaker 53 (01:36:10):
All right, yes, I'm coming down now.

type of bag it's down on the table.

Speaker 66 (01:36:21):
Rank's going all right, all right, goodbye.

Speaker 15 (01:36:32):
Goodbye, Harold.

Speaker 40 (01:36:36):
So you don't have an idea you're getting away with anything.
I think you're a thirty liar.

Speaker 59 (01:36:46):
I hardly heard and didn't even think about it. I
was so relieved and still so bewildered by anything, running
down the hill with a paper bag of money plushed
in my hand. And then I saw Harold crouching behind
a box, and then some policemen, and then I was
around the bend and they were all running up to me,
and I just threw myself in the Harold guards, Jade,

(01:37:09):
are you all right, I'm overad he here's money.

Speaker 40 (01:37:12):
Oh, yes, yes, yes, it's all here, all right, off, sir, okay, chuck,

Speaker 53 (01:37:18):
Come, my dear, hell, hells us chair gas chair gas.

Speaker 15 (01:37:23):

Speaker 59 (01:37:27):
Dear, Okay, what about of course I did know, you
know all the time you plan to do this?

Speaker 11 (01:37:33):
Okay.

Speaker 53 (01:37:48):
I tried to run back, and they helped me to watch.

Speaker 11 (01:37:52):
I couldn't help him.

Speaker 53 (01:37:53):
It's seemed hours, but it was only minutes.

Speaker 59 (01:37:55):
I suppose the tear gas bomb exploding around the tabin,
crash through the windows as they got the range, and
then something.

Speaker 53 (01:38:03):
White fluttered from the door and they came out, the
boy first, his hands in the air, and.

Speaker 11 (01:38:08):
Then Frank stumbling charges.

Speaker 53 (01:38:11):
Like blind men, and.

Speaker 59 (01:38:14):
Those terrible wracking parts that seemed to be carrying the piece. Frank, Hell, Frank,
I didn't know, I.

Speaker 11 (01:38:27):
Swear to you.

Speaker 53 (01:38:27):
I didn't know.

Speaker 15 (01:38:28):
I know, I did, though I knew before you left.

Speaker 71 (01:38:31):
Oh why did you let me?

Speaker 53 (01:38:33):
I wouldn't have gone, I.

Speaker 13 (01:38:34):
Know, because he took kind started the place.

Speaker 15 (01:38:38):
Maybe I couldn't have handled.

Speaker 53 (01:38:39):
Sonny, Frank, I'll help you. How do everything I possibly
can anything.

Speaker 15 (01:38:47):
You can't take some advice, will you next time? Next time,
be sure it's.

Speaker 21 (01:38:53):
A right guy.

Speaker 50 (01:39:04):
You know.

Speaker 53 (01:39:06):
It's funny.

Speaker 59 (01:39:08):
It's like he said, people can be honest and dishonest
in so many different ways.

Speaker 25 (01:39:16):
Well, I.

Speaker 59 (01:39:18):
Got to the bank early the next morning too. Harold
was already there waiting for me.

Speaker 40 (01:39:24):
Hello, Dolly, Hello, I'm so glad you're here early. There's
some things I wanted to talk over with you. You
know you're quite at Harold now, am I?

Speaker 57 (01:39:32):
Oh?

Speaker 20 (01:39:32):
Yeah?

Speaker 40 (01:39:33):
And you know, Dolly, I've been thinking perhaps I was
a little too conscientious yesterday about our married Niel. I
think perhaps you are right.

Speaker 15 (01:39:40):
After all, we ought to.

Speaker 53 (01:39:41):
Tell them about our marriage. There isn't going to be.

Speaker 32 (01:39:46):
Any marriage.

Speaker 59 (01:39:48):
Isn't going to be any I've found out something about
a girl getting married, Harold.

Speaker 53 (01:39:54):
Marriage is something you do.

Speaker 62 (01:42:19):
We have chosen for you a story that plums the
very depths of.

Speaker 5 (01:42:24):
One of man's primary emotions, the eternal seeking of an
eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth.
This is the story of a man who waited twenty
long and heartbreaking years before the opportunity came to seek vengeance.

(01:42:45):
But when it did, he talked his prey with the
cold and horrible self of a black panther.

Speaker 72 (01:42:58):
Griefs by Ye Right presents Bars Carlos as George Miller
in The Final Reckoning.

Speaker 5 (01:43:12):
I've Seen as the Warden's office.

Speaker 72 (01:43:14):
Say Penitentially, a middle aged man, his shoulders hunched and
his hair prematurely gray, stands before the warden's death. Clothed
in an ill fitting prison made suit, his face is
yellowed with the color of long confinement, but his eyes,
set deeply in dark shattered hollows, are bright and clear.

Speaker 5 (01:43:37):
Looking at him, the wardens speaks, well, I wish you'd
reconsider George. I don't like to see you walk out
of here in your condition. I'll be all right, forton,
I'll be a fool. You've just gotten over a bad
case of pneumonia. Why not spend an extra week or
so in the hospital and Doc Greed put your back

(01:43:59):
on your feet. My time is up at noon today,
isn't it. Yes, And that's when I'm leaving. The moment
that noon whistle blows. You're in no shit to travel.
Look at you, you're still sick. Man definitely said. I've
been sick for almost twenty years war ever since those

(01:44:21):
iron gates out there, clothes behind me. I've waited a
lifetime for the cure, plan for it. Now I'm going
to get it. You're just being stubborn, George. I don't
understand it. You've been a model prisoner in every way.
In the entire history of the penitentiary, only three men

(01:44:44):
the bad life, sentence is commuted, and you're one of them.
And yet, in a matter that concerns you're well being,
you act like an obstinate fool. Why because I've got
something to do, something very important. What's more important than
your health? The thing I've got to do. Wait a minute,

(01:45:10):
are you going to do something that might land you
back in here?

Speaker 13 (01:45:15):
Is that?

Speaker 11 (01:45:15):
It?

Speaker 5 (01:45:16):
Don't worry Walden, you know. Come to think of it, George,
there's something I've always wanted to ask you, something personal.
Go ahead. In all the years you've been here, why
have you refused to see visitors or male Why did
you completely cut yourself off from the outside world. Well,

(01:45:40):
it all boils down to this. A man ages a
lot in twenty years. His voice changes and his way
of talking, his features change, He becomes an entirely different person,
especially in a place like this. Just knowing that you're

(01:46:03):
hemmed in by four walls does something to you something? Well,
that's the answer. It's no answer at all, Yes it is.
I didn't want anyone to see me, age to see
the changes that are coming over me the way it
is now. The George Miller who is walking out of

(01:46:25):
here at forty four is nothing like the George Miller
who was brought in the twenty five. There are two
different people. No one outside this prison will ever recognize me,
and that what you want. That's exactly what I want.

(01:46:47):
Why You've got nothing to be ashamed of. You paid
your debt to society. There's another debt I have to
pay to myself. It's been knowing for a long time.
I don't like the way you're talking, George. What's behind
all this? Twenty years warton the best part of my life?

(01:47:12):
A minute ago you asked me to look at myself.
I don't have to look. I can feel it down inside.
I'm an old man, an old man at forty four.
Self pity is a bad thing, George. I'm not pitying myself.

(01:47:34):
I'm thinking about what brought me here. You've got the
record right there in front of you. I set up
is innocent then, and it still holds. I'm innocent Now.
That's a closed book. Whenever that stay closed, because there's
an unfinished chapter still to be written. Remember, you haven't
served your full term. You'll be on probation for five years.

(01:47:56):
I'll remember. I've had a long time to think over. Incidentally,
while we're abbit. There's one more thing that's been puzzling me.
A better Holley. It's almost now six months ago, and
it seemed pretty certain that your commutation is coming through.

(01:48:16):
You made a strange request. You asked to be relieved
of the job of running the prison library, job you
held as far back as I can remember, and he
asked me to assign you as an apprentice to the
prison barber. I granted that request, but I wondered about
it at the time. Would you care to tell me

(01:48:38):
why you suddenly decided to become a barber. I thought
it might be a good idea to love the trade.
That's not true, George A the noon west Ham. That
means I'm a free man, doesn't it. Yeah, good Bible,

(01:49:00):
take care of yourself. If you haven't answered my question, George,
you mean why did I suddenly decide to become a bother?
I told you I wanted to learn a tray, and
I told you that's not the truth. You're right, Warton,
it isn't.

Speaker 28 (01:49:30):
Here.

Speaker 5 (01:49:30):
George Miller's no kidden.

Speaker 62 (01:49:32):
Yeah, got his sentence.

Speaker 5 (01:49:34):
Community did they know he does?

Speaker 48 (01:49:36):

your go George Miller's.

A hophead? About?

Speaker 5 (01:50:24):
Oh? Sure, sure, I'm out of my mind. I don't
know what I'm talking about. George Miller's dad, he died
in prison ten years ago as well, that's what they
told him. Who told you?

Speaker 50 (01:50:33):
How?

Speaker 5 (01:50:34):
Sources of information? George? Sources of information? Don't make me
laugh now, okay, and I'll get out before I lose.

Speaker 48 (01:50:40):
My tap back if you don't even what I said,
sources of information?

Speaker 5 (01:50:46):
Very, get me a drink, hey, Sonny, don't get yourself
all up? Shut up, hey, shut out, and stay out
of it.

Speaker 74 (01:50:52):

Oh, come on, come on, well, are you going to

you're a funny guy.

Speaker 14 (02:03:05):

Does the razor pool up?

Speaker 16 (02:03:34):
It was all right, that's fine.

Speaker 5 (02:03:39):
Nothing like a good sharp razor. Yeah, I don't move.
It's rather difficult shaving you in the chair. If you move,
I may cut your throat. That's not funny. It was
meant to be funny. Ace. What did you say? Sit back?

(02:04:01):
A one splip and you're finished. You're a dead wreck,
George Miller.

Speaker 22 (02:04:07):
That's right.

Speaker 5 (02:04:08):
It's been a long time, hasn't it? A George chege
wouldn't tell me in cold blood? Which is?

Speaker 17 (02:04:13):
This isn't cold blood?

Speaker 28 (02:04:15):

That doesn't take much to split a throat from here
to be? You know that, George? Charge If you anything
you want made your price, you couldn't meet it. Only
one thing can pay for those twenty years. George, I've
got a bad hot in this so I, oh, I'm
asking for ast up break? Did you give me a
break when you frame me and set me up a life?

(02:04:47):
I figured you beat the rap.

Speaker 48 (02:04:48):
I never thought they convicted and you wouldmit framing here.

Speaker 5 (02:04:51):
Yeah, but I never figure. Wasn't you killed the maguire
tho because she knew too much? Because you want it
right of the way. Yeah, yeah, but I'm not. It's
more than enough. I feel the razor on your throat. Cutching, Josh, No, catching.

Speaker 16 (02:05:10):
Dumper dump seper.

Speaker 5 (02:05:19):
You said you'd be a new man when this was over.

Speaker 76 (02:05:33):
They have come back.

Speaker 5 (02:05:35):
Okay, come in, missus Cattle.

Speaker 62 (02:05:43):
Hollow water, mister Nell.

Oh there he is shaking a darling.

Speaker 73 (02:05:51):
I couldn't stand being away from you.

Speaker 5 (02:05:53):
I had to come back.

Speaker 73 (02:05:55):
I could, I couldn't. Oh no, yes, sleep or something.

Speaker 5 (02:06:03):
I'm afraid not, miss cavill.

Speaker 73 (02:06:06):

Speaker 73 (02:06:33):
George Miller short, Yeah, thank you? Yes you do you know,
miss Cattle.

Speaker 5 (02:06:46):
I did not kill you. Don't see any blood through you.
But it's God.

Speaker 11 (02:06:52):
He said it was this.

Speaker 16 (02:06:55):
I'm afraid I played rather a gruesome joke on you see.
I was shaving him with a very sharp raiser after
I told him who I was. I held the back
of the blade, the dull side, against his broth. As
you know, he had a bad heart.

Speaker 5 (02:07:17):
Unfortunately it couldn't stand astray. You meased you, you got
the chair for him. A wrong, missus Carroll, quite wrong.
Asternelli died of a heart attack. That's for a medical
autopsical show. If you caused it, that would be very

(02:07:37):
difficult to prove. I figured this out so carefully, Miss Carroll.

Speaker 47 (02:07:44):
I paid with twenty years of my life for a
murder I did not commit. And now there's nothing the
law can do to me. The one that I did commit.

Speaker 72 (02:08:18):
Treats by Night. I just brought you, Boris Carlos in
the final reckoning. We will us again next Tuesday Night
at the same time over most of these stations, when
mister Carlos will present another weird mystery of the mind.

Speaker 3 (02:08:34):
The Hunt.

Speaker 72 (02:08:50):
Streets by Night is directed by Dave Drummond. Original music
is composed and conducted by Al Sack. The entire production
is under the supervision Robert Maxwell. There's a Blue Network.

Speaker 69 (02:09:11):
Hello, I hope I haven't kept you waiting. Yes, this
is the Crime Club. I'm the librarian the Self Made Copse.

Speaker 25 (02:09:23):
Yes, we have that story for you.

Speaker 3 (02:09:26):
Come right over. Ah, you are here.

Speaker 14 (02:09:44):
Good.

Speaker 69 (02:09:46):
Take the easy chair by the window. Comfortable. The manuscript
is on this shelf here. It is the Self Made Copse,
the very unusual story of a plan for living in
which the architect was death.

Speaker 3 (02:10:03):
Let's look at it under the reading man.

Speaker 69 (02:10:07):
It was late one evening and Skippy Parker, I had
check girl of a chickadee club, was at her station
in the cloak room when a small, timid looking man
came into the spacious lobby of the club and walked
over to her.

Speaker 29 (02:10:21):
Excuse me, miss, My name is Andrew Mitchell.

Speaker 73 (02:10:24):
That's nice.

Speaker 3 (02:10:25):
Here's something for you.

Speaker 30 (02:10:27):
Half a dollar.

Speaker 29 (02:10:28):
Well, it's all I can forward at the moment. Please
take it all right?

Speaker 46 (02:10:33):
But what do I have to do for it?

Speaker 29 (02:10:34):
Just tell me where I can find mister Spade's diamond.
What he owns this place, doesn't he? So I've been told,
And he's one of the most successful gang leaders in
the country, an empire builder.

Speaker 53 (02:10:45):
Andrew, you wouldn't be crazy, would you.

Speaker 20 (02:10:47):
Oh?

Speaker 77 (02:10:47):
No, no, no, then why do you want to be said, Well.

Speaker 29 (02:10:51):
It's a business, very important and very private. Uh huh,
give your money back? Why go home to your pet itself.
You don't believe me, do you?

Speaker 9 (02:11:01):
Traffic?

Speaker 29 (02:11:01):
I don't see it.

Speaker 34 (02:11:04):
Very well.

Speaker 29 (02:11:04):
I'll find mister Diamond without your help, and i'll tell
him that you refuse to co operate. But don't forget
to mention my name. It's Skippy Parker. I won't forget,
miss Parker, but you regret it. I'm going to have
you rubbed out. So young and so beautiful, but your
manners are bad. I'm going inside to look for mister.

Speaker 11 (02:11:21):
Diamond every night and noon.

Speaker 29 (02:11:25):
Oh well, waiter, waiter, waiter, where's the riotness?

Speaker 3 (02:11:36):
Waiter? This check you left on my table a few
minutes ago.

Speaker 24 (02:11:38):
I just looked at it.

Speaker 29 (02:11:40):
Thanks, you're welcome, But don't you think you've made a mistake.

Speaker 13 (02:11:44):
Yeah?

Speaker 29 (02:11:44):
I had four small glasses of rain ginrail and two
cups of black coffee without sugar, and you're charging me
sixteen dollars.

Speaker 24 (02:11:52):
There's a three dollar cover charge if you're here at
ten o'clock.

Speaker 32 (02:11:55):
Oh, there's a five dollar covered charge if you're still
here at midnight.

Speaker 29 (02:11:59):
That's an out page.

Speaker 35 (02:12:00):
Go fight City Hall.

Speaker 3 (02:12:01):
It's the hull of the house.

Speaker 29 (02:12:02):
I won't pay it. Oh a red, I'm not a red.
I'm a fine, upstanding Citizendana. I'm not going to be
child just for sitting at a table. Stand on your
head and we'll pay you. I had to sit here
all this time, don't you understand?

Speaker 3 (02:12:15):
All me and the boss once is sixteen dollars.

Speaker 29 (02:12:18):
I haven't got it. I've got a job that pays
me sixty two dollars a week. I've had it for
thirty years, and when I started, I was getting only
twelve dollars. You're in trouble, missed in What am I
going to do?

Speaker 3 (02:12:30):
You want to take my advice?

Speaker 29 (02:12:32):
Yes, kill yourself. What nobody ever gets out of here without.

Speaker 3 (02:12:37):
Paying a check?

Speaker 29 (02:12:37):
But I came here looking for spades, diamond, and I
know what's the matter, Joan.

Speaker 3 (02:12:42):
This guy's full of liquid boss and no dough.

Speaker 29 (02:12:45):
Okay, I'll take care. I'm going back to your beach
with pleasure.

Speaker 3 (02:12:48):
I want to explain my predicament. So if you just
give me a chance. What predicament? You're tearing up the check?
Sure you are the great Andrew Mitchell.

Speaker 29 (02:12:58):
Great, I'm just a teller, and not a town bank.
How did you know my name? I've got spies, of course,
your spade, Diamond tell you though, Oh you don't look
at all like your pictures in the newspaper. Your eyes
and your what's the man? You're squeezing my hand too hot?

(02:13:19):
Oh I'm sorry sometimes I don't know. My hand's strange
and the broken bones, well, I don't think so good.
Skippy park of the hatcheck girl said you wanted to
see me. Oh, then she's redeemed herself. I'm so glad,
a girl of her youth and beauty. She said that
you got a business that concerns a half a million

(02:13:41):
dollars in cares. Well, I really haven't got it.

Speaker 3 (02:13:43):
So you see, have I been sizing you up for nothing?

Speaker 28 (02:13:47):
No?

Speaker 29 (02:13:47):
No, no, the money belongs to me. Oh, but this
is no place to discuss private matters, mister Diamond, All
these people with the ears, Okay, I will go into
my office.

Speaker 3 (02:13:58):
Will we be alone like.

Speaker 5 (02:14:00):
In a grave?

Speaker 20 (02:14:02):
Come on, it's one flight up and it sound true?
Go ahead, Andy, step right in and thank you spades.

Speaker 29 (02:14:15):
If Leonner that's my wife, should only hear someone call
me Andy instead of Andrews? She she'd have a spades. Yeah,
you said we were going to be alone. We are
just rel But those four men against the wall, I
bought a director.

Speaker 5 (02:14:32):
They never talked.

Speaker 29 (02:14:33):
Oh what are they gangsters too? And the watch your language.
I didn't mean to be disrespectful, gentlemen. Who it's quite
all right now the business you came to see me about.
Oh yes, but first now, I want you to know
that I've never done a dishonest thing in my life now,
and I wouldn't be doing it now if it weren't
for the fact that I'm Yeah, well I'm bitter. I've

(02:14:56):
been cheated out of my proper station at the bank.
We got a lessons fellows, he's that kind of a guy.
After thirty years on loyal service. Last week the office
of assistant cashier became vacant. Mister Penamore died and I
was next in line for the job. Who do you
think got it? You tell me that young man from Princeton, Griswold, Griffeth.

(02:15:18):
Oh that's tough, Andy. What do you want us to
do about it? Well, I've got a plan that will
punish that bank, and I've got it on this piece
of paper. M what's this a layout space. Now the
bank occupies the entire street floor of a small office
building at the corner of Smith and Luden Streets in
my town. Now, the main entrance to the bank is

(02:15:40):
on Luden Street, that's right over here, see now, But
over here on Smith Street there's an entrance to the
office building into a tiny vesticule. And would this line
over here be another door of the bank, Yes, an
entrance through the vestibule.

Speaker 3 (02:15:53):
I see. Oh, and what's this box over here?

Speaker 29 (02:15:57):
That's the elevator to the offices upstairs. Now mind you,
those officers have nothing to do with the bank, I
get it.

Speaker 20 (02:16:02):
And these two lines running between the bank wall and
the elevator, that's a short, narrow corridor that leads to
a stairway behind the elevator. And every weekday what happens, Well,
every weekday, at exactly four o'clock, the entrance to the
building is locked by the bank guard.

Speaker 3 (02:16:21):
No one can come in or go out for ten minutes.

Speaker 29 (02:16:24):
Why, at exactly three minutes after four, the money box
is squealed out of the bank by three men including me.
Don't say where does it go from there? Into the elevator?
Of course, we take it down to the basement and
lock the money box in the vault.

Speaker 20 (02:16:40):
And there's a half a million in cash riding that elevator.
At least how many guards with guns?

Speaker 3 (02:16:46):
Only one?

Speaker 29 (02:16:48):
It should be very simple. Spaces cops out signed, Nope,
you and your men could go in the building before
that Smith Street door is locked by the bank guard.
Stay on one of the upper floors until the money
box is squealed out of the bank, and then the
boys come down the stairs and do the job. Yes,
how big is that money box? About four feet high
and about three feet wide. It's built like a seat.

(02:17:11):
You can't move fast to the thing like that. And
when I wait, I've thought of that too. Yeah, Smith
Street is quite deserved at that hour. And if you
forced me and the others into the elevator, it'll be
quite a simple matter to bind and gagis I?

Speaker 13 (02:17:25):
Hey?

Speaker 29 (02:17:25):
Everything the simple matter to you? How much do you
expect for your trouble? Well, I thought twenty percent wouldn't
be too much. Twenty you'd take ten, okay, and the
real case not the place and let you know. May
I know when when we're ready, I'll go downstairs and
tell Joey to give you a drink, Plain Gingerreo.

Speaker 5 (02:17:46):
What what stage?

Speaker 29 (02:17:47):
I said, Plain Gingerreo.

Speaker 9 (02:17:49):
Pal.

Speaker 20 (02:17:49):
From now on, you'll have to be careful what you drink.
I don't want you talking at the wrong time and
to the wrong people.

Speaker 11 (02:18:00):
You.

Speaker 78 (02:18:03):
Hey, Andy, what who's calling me here? It's me Joel
Good heavens, what are you doing on that cloud? I'm
serving drinks?

Speaker 21 (02:18:16):
Come on up.

Speaker 13 (02:18:17):
You're gonna have all you want.

Speaker 29 (02:18:19):
But I have no money.

Speaker 24 (02:18:20):
Are you kidding?

Speaker 21 (02:18:22):

Speaker 29 (02:19:09):
Well, call him back. I'm not allowed to drink champagne.
He's not going to charge here for it.

You're still afraid of her?

Speaker 29 (02:19:54):

Speaker 29 (02:20:12):
I must have been very tired.

Speaker 11 (02:20:13):
The best thing you do is sleep every night before dinner,
and in the only good chair we have in this
disgraceful living room.

Speaker 30 (02:20:20):
Thirty years in one position and you're still sleeping.

Speaker 29 (02:20:25):

Ready, hired, hungry, and you didn't complain. The other night
you came home at four o'clock in the morning.

Speaker 29 (02:20:32):
I told you yesterday I met an old friend of
mine in New York.

Speaker 53 (02:20:35):
What were you doing in New York?

Speaker 30 (02:20:37):
That's what I want to know.

Speaker 29 (02:20:38):
I was empiring about a car, doing what I'm thinking
of buying a car, Lewer. It was going to be
a surprise. But well, if you got your mind, I
may even give up my job and take a trip
to California or the Europe.

Speaker 3 (02:20:52):
That depends on how I feel when the time for
decision comes.

Speaker 29 (02:20:55):
Good Heaven, Oh aren't you going to ask me how
I can do all these things? I'm sixty two dollars
a week. I didn't realize what was happening to you.
Oh good lor, I'm perfectly saying the owner. I've been
playing it smart. That's what every day I put aside
a part of my arms, my lunch and cigarette money.
And when I had enough, I began to gamble. Oh yes,
my luck was very good, and I've bet the whole

(02:21:16):
thing on a short thing long enough. When it comes in,
I'm going to be rich, very rich.

Into the vestibule, and he was bound and gagged too
like the others, and left the suffocate in that elevator.

I understand he was pretty upset about a promotion he
didn't get. Who don't you that he spent at the bank,
Missus Mitchell, Well.

of his life to that organization when the time came
for the bank to show its appreciation. Yes, your husband

Speaker 24 (02:23:46):
I'd like to ask him a few questions. Would you

Three hours of police headquarters as if he were a
common criminal.

Speaker 30 (02:23:53):
He was so exhausted when he came home. He was
a complete physical, nervous wreck. And he came home didn't
he Well, am I supposed to say thank you for that?

Uh huh, Tope, he isn't asleep. I'd hate to wake him. Yeah,
he technic gramm. I asked you to wait in the
living room.

Speaker 24 (02:24:17):
I feel like claiming stairs.

Speaker 69 (02:24:19):
Oh very well, here's if we were around headquarters that
the robbery might have been an inside job. What as
my wife would see? It was just too perfect for words. Oh,
there were no mistakes. We're looking for the man who
might have tipped off the gang about how things are
done at the bank.

Speaker 30 (02:24:37):
Andrew maybe, Oh of all the ridiculous things I've ever heard,
Andrew and gangster.

Speaker 3 (02:24:43):

Detected Graham. I want you to tell me the truth.
Did you come here to arrest my husband?

Speaker 28 (02:25:22):

Yes, come on, this is a long a chance.

Speaker 33 (02:41:16):
Wait a money ready.

Speaker 28 (02:41:32):
In a moment, we return for the second act of Danger,
Doctor Danfield. But first I'm back to our star Michael Dunn.

Speaker 13 (02:41:46):
To the second act of.

Speaker 34 (02:41:51):
Danger.

Speaker 28 (02:41:51):
Doctor Dan, I'll understand me, Dark, I'm not asking you
to take this job.

Speaker 5 (02:42:01):
It's pretty dangerous.

Speaker 13 (02:42:03):
I'm really suggesting that here's.

Speaker 28 (02:42:04):
An opportunity for you to study a real murderer at
close rank.

Speaker 11 (02:42:07):
Very clever captain.

Speaker 54 (02:42:08):
Notice, you couldn't say anything.

Speaker 5 (02:42:10):
It would make Jen more eager to take the job.

Speaker 28 (02:42:12):
And you know that's enough, Rusty.

Speaker 18 (02:42:14):
What makes you so sure that I'll find this red
Jacoba at twenty eight River Street.

Speaker 28 (02:42:17):
Tests well because that's where he was living when he
picked him up a year ago, and his wife Poppy
has been living there ever since. Expects me, the hone
would be the last place an escape convic would attempt
to hide on.

Speaker 5 (02:42:27):
Yeah, exactly.

Speaker 62 (02:42:29):
Read.

Speaker 5 (02:42:29):
Jacoby is clever enough to realize that, I.

Speaker 28 (02:42:31):
See you think he feels that the police would be
less likely to look in the more obvious places. First, Yes,
we've had a dragnet out all over the country and
haven't even picked up our clue.

Speaker 33 (02:42:41):
So now we're going to begin on his old haunts.

Speaker 28 (02:42:43):
If Jacoby is as clever as you say, he'll realize
that too.

Speaker 11 (02:42:46):
He won't be fool enough to stay with his wife.

Speaker 28 (02:42:48):
Right, Your arm is fair effact. If I guess is correct.
We'll have to work fast today. In fact, we can't
anticipate Jacoby's plans. But one thing we do know.

Speaker 5 (02:42:56):
He's no fool, and even now he might slip through
our fingers.

Speaker 18 (02:43:00):
He's seven cold at the River Street. Address it all.

Speaker 28 (02:43:02):
No, the minute we start moving into the district, Jacoby
will get word of it and we won't have a chance.

Speaker 59 (02:43:06):
But you think it's all right for Dan to go
down and call on those those cuts.

Speaker 18 (02:43:09):
Rusty for heaven's sake, stuff making a nuisance of yourself.

Speaker 11 (02:43:12):
Well, I don't think it's fair.

Speaker 5 (02:43:13):
I'm not urging the doctor to do it, and it's fair, I'm.

Speaker 11 (02:43:15):
Really yes, you're merely telling him there's an escape convict
down there who would stick a knife thing rusty.

Speaker 28 (02:43:20):
Well, I don't care, right, George, If you don't keep quiet,
out what, I won't let you come with me?

Speaker 18 (02:43:24):
Oh you won't, No, I won't now keep quiet.

Speaker 28 (02:43:25):
Will you?

Speaker 29 (02:43:27):
All right?

Speaker 28 (02:43:28):
Captain? I'll try and find your man for you.

Speaker 24 (02:43:30):
Tell me.

Speaker 18 (02:43:30):
Have you any ideas about what sort of an approachicees you?

Speaker 62 (02:43:33):
Well?

Speaker 28 (02:43:34):
Well, you could pose is a salesman peddling vacuum cleaners
or books, or selling magazine thankly. I think I do
better as a newspaper reporter, and admit that I'm after
a story on read Yakoby, good good, and remember I'll
have a man watching, and if you're not out of
there within thirty minutes, there'll be a squad card.

Speaker 11 (02:43:51):
But all now, that's mighty Why to the captain, you'll
have a squad car at the door?

Speaker 13 (02:43:55):
Oh Dan, all right, rusty, he all right?

Speaker 5 (02:43:57):
That does it?

Speaker 28 (02:43:58):
Thanks for giving me this opportunity, Captain.

Speaker 18 (02:44:00):
She'll hear from you tonight.

Speaker 30 (02:44:00):
Yeah, listen to me.

Speaker 28 (02:44:01):
I don't thank Doc, don't need I'm the one who's grateful.
Red Chac Goby is as bad as they come.

Speaker 29 (02:44:07):
And he swore when he was sent up, but he'd
escaped within a year.

Speaker 28 (02:44:11):
And it's gonna be bad for the police department if
he isn't Captain.

Speaker 5 (02:44:13):
It's gonna be bad for dam Ory.

Speaker 18 (02:44:15):
Captain, and the best I can goodbye.

Speaker 5 (02:44:17):
Well that was so long, Doc, goodbye. You could at
least have said goodbye.

Speaker 11 (02:44:23):
Why should I?

Speaker 13 (02:44:24):
It isn't there?

Speaker 15 (02:44:25):
Captain?

Speaker 51 (02:44:26):
Noticed it?

Speaker 11 (02:44:27):
Dan? What are you doing?

Speaker 5 (02:44:29):
What to look like?

Speaker 11 (02:44:30):
Dam If you take that gun, you'll you'll be sure
to get into trouble.

Speaker 28 (02:44:34):
Oh well, you've seen.

Speaker 18 (02:44:36):
Uh if I have everything?

Speaker 15 (02:44:38):
Damn?

Speaker 5 (02:44:38):
Wait? Oh far the way most perfect?

Speaker 29 (02:44:40):
He listen your fire.

Speaker 18 (02:44:42):
Man, eh, let me see now twenty six, twenty eight,
twenty eight, Yes, as this is in.

Speaker 28 (02:44:57):
It's not the most cheerful locality I've ever been.

Speaker 57 (02:45:05):
Yeah, what do you want?

Speaker 28 (02:45:06):
Well, Poppy? Is your husband in?

Speaker 29 (02:45:08):
How do you know?

Speaker 57 (02:45:09):
My name was Poppy?

Speaker 5 (02:45:10):
Why?

Speaker 28 (02:45:10):
The city editor my newspaper told.

Speaker 18 (02:45:12):
Me that Poppy Jakobe lived here in the paper.

Speaker 62 (02:45:14):
Yeah it is.

Speaker 28 (02:45:14):
You know what the newspapers, don't you, puppy.

Speaker 27 (02:45:16):
It's a large sheet of paper.

Speaker 57 (02:45:17):
All right, wise guy, what's on your mind?

Speaker 5 (02:45:20):
Your husband read he's here, isn't he?

Speaker 11 (02:45:23):
No?

Speaker 14 (02:45:24):
No, that's hot.

Speaker 5 (02:45:24):
I was told.

Speaker 57 (02:45:25):
I don't care what you was told. I'll go petty
your paper somewhere else and let me alone.

Speaker 28 (02:45:30):
Very well, Poppy, I'll go back and tell the boss
that you refuse to let me in. I'm afraid. Let
a look at mighty suspicious.

Speaker 32 (02:45:37):
Hey, yes, come back here.

Speaker 28 (02:45:40):
Oh something you wanted to say, Puppy.

Speaker 57 (02:45:43):
Let me get this straight. If I let you look
around inside and you don't find nothing, you'll write a
story fans off.

Speaker 28 (02:45:49):
Naturally, that's why the boss sent me here.

Speaker 85 (02:45:51):
Why why He doesn't believe the Red would be dumb
enough to hide out in his own home, and he
sent me down to prove it so he could publish
a story substantiating his view.

Speaker 57 (02:46:00):
Come on in, thank you.

Speaker 28 (02:46:04):
Well, are there a cozy place in a dismal sort.

Speaker 50 (02:46:07):
Of a way.

Speaker 57 (02:46:08):
Keep the cracks and start looking.

Speaker 14 (02:46:10):
Yes, yes, of course.

Speaker 28 (02:46:12):
Well it's gonna be any signs.

Speaker 57 (02:46:14):
Of mister Jacoby in this room, John Righting, Come on,
anything in here?

Speaker 18 (02:46:21):
Not a thing, Poppy, and no place for a man
to hide either.

Speaker 57 (02:46:25):
Suthering, Come on upstairs now.

Speaker 18 (02:46:29):
The boss will certainly be pleased to learn that he
was right in the police wrong.

Speaker 57 (02:46:32):
Yeah, I'll bet. Come on down the hall.

Speaker 5 (02:46:36):
Tell me do you live alone, Poppy?

Speaker 15 (02:46:38):
I live alone?

Speaker 57 (02:46:39):
And then living alone in us? And see cops railroaded
Red into the can.

Speaker 34 (02:46:44):
Railroaded, Yeah, railroaded.

Speaker 57 (02:46:46):
Take a look in here, see anything not a thing, puppy.

Speaker 18 (02:46:51):
This will certainly make the balls happy.

Speaker 57 (02:46:54):
Come on, there's one more room.

Speaker 85 (02:46:56):
I don't suppose you've had many guests since Red has
uh been away?

Speaker 57 (02:47:01):
You saying I'd cheat on a thwell, guy like Rent Neoshag,
get this trait.

Speaker 11 (02:47:05):
Nobody never cheats on Red or Kobe unless to tell
about us.

Speaker 28 (02:47:09):
Red sounds like a very interesting character.

Speaker 57 (02:47:12):
Yes, okay, take a look in here? That is fine.

Speaker 18 (02:47:17):
Mm tell me is that a closet over there?

Speaker 57 (02:47:20):
Sure it's a closet. Well take a look inside if
you want, Thank you, I will let me.

Speaker 13 (02:47:25):
Waste your time.

Speaker 28 (02:47:26):
There ain't nobody here, because then you're write, Poppy because
it seems to be empty.

Speaker 81 (02:47:33):
Sure it's empty.

Speaker 28 (02:47:34):
Well I guess, well what's this to look at?

Speaker 21 (02:47:39):

Speaker 28 (02:47:39):
Back at bok, I'm just browsing around, puppy empty, cranking
the puppy.

Speaker 13 (02:47:44):

Of course he ain't read Yakoby. Can't you see he's

Stand like we are, mister Jacoby. Let's let's be reasonable

cold blood.

Speaker 40 (02:48:29):
No you don't know read Jacoby Junior.

Speaker 5 (02:55:57):
Dan, Dan, listen to her to know what we've done

Speaker 57 (02:56:01):
Why?

Speaker 40 (02:56:01):
Baby, we did something like fish's fruits here. I'm a bruite.
Come snooping around here with Red.

Speaker 57 (02:56:11):
We're gonna have your fun later. Like now, we've got
to start thinking. The female stooges probably already called the police,
and I had called the police.

Speaker 18 (02:56:18):
They're on their way now.

Speaker 40 (02:56:19):
Oh so the cops is on their way now.

Speaker 13 (02:56:21):
Huh, Well, I got a hair mind.

Speaker 57 (02:56:23):
I don't take it easy, Red, we ain't got much time. Look,
I got an.

Speaker 15 (02:56:26):
Idea, Yeah, what is it?

Speaker 57 (02:56:27):
We ain't so bad all. So long as we got
these two, we can make a deal, can't we.

Speaker 4 (02:56:31):
Yeah, you've got free We're sure we can make it.

Speaker 9 (02:56:35):
Deal.

Speaker 40 (02:56:36):
Sure the cops come snooping around here, we can make
a deal. We'll trade in a couple of corpses for
a head start out of town.

Speaker 77 (02:56:54):
Dan, we'll never get these knuts looses we were rusting.

Speaker 27 (02:56:57):
We've got to ris up hears away can get out
of them.

Speaker 15 (02:57:00):
Even if we do get free, we'll never get out
of this room.

Speaker 28 (02:57:02):
Across the bridge when we come to it there, I
think that notts loosening?

Speaker 11 (02:57:06):
You?

Speaker 13 (02:57:06):
Sure?

Speaker 28 (02:57:07):
Kepta Notice said that Red Jacobi was captured in Chicago.

Speaker 29 (02:57:09):
Of course I am.

Speaker 11 (02:57:10):
You wouldn't believe me when I told him you were
being held prisoner here.

Speaker 13 (02:57:13):
I know what he believed you?

Speaker 33 (02:57:14):
All right?

Speaker 1 (02:57:15):
What do you mean?

Speaker 85 (02:57:15):
Turn your wrists in as far as you can when
you I mean you probably thought someone was listening to
your conversation and didn't want them to know.

Speaker 9 (02:57:22):
Suspicious Dan, you really think so?

Speaker 13 (02:57:24):
Yes, that thou's loose.

Speaker 18 (02:57:26):
Now see if you can slip your hand out of
the ropes.

Speaker 57 (02:57:28):
No, it's still too tight.

Speaker 11 (02:57:30):
Do you think Captain Knowles will come here?

Speaker 87 (02:57:32):
No?

Speaker 5 (02:57:32):
He will.

Speaker 74 (02:57:32):
So there's Red.

Speaker 85 (02:57:33):
That's why we're being held prisoners. I'd probably thinks he
can make a deal with Otis.

Speaker 40 (02:57:37):
I'll try it now we have all right, I don't
got one hand free.

Speaker 33 (02:57:41):
Good, I start getting me free.

Speaker 85 (02:57:42):
Got to let Otis know we're safe before he starts
talking the.

Speaker 11 (02:57:45):
Red Dah listen, that must be Captain Notice now.

Speaker 29 (02:57:47):
Sorry, it is the best I can wait a minute.

Speaker 5 (02:57:50):
I think I can help a loo. They are one's
coming loose all right?

Speaker 8 (02:57:53):
Now, I think I can make it yes, there we are.

Speaker 11 (02:57:57):
We're not much better off this room is.

Speaker 5 (02:58:00):
There's a window over there.

Speaker 9 (02:58:03):
There we are?

Speaker 29 (02:58:04):
Oh, Dan, this there's nothing but in air shaf.

Speaker 28 (02:58:06):
Yes, it goes all the way down to the basement.

Speaker 5 (02:58:08):
What are we going to do?

Speaker 28 (02:58:10):
Those blankets are my bad, Rusty?

Speaker 5 (02:58:11):
Maybe if we nodded them together we can.

Speaker 12 (02:58:12):
They've never reached the ground.

Speaker 18 (02:58:14):
Maybe not.

Speaker 28 (02:58:15):
I've got another idea. Tie the blankets together, Rusty. What
do you want to pull a bed over the window?

Speaker 11 (02:58:19):
Right?

Speaker 40 (02:58:23):
Police car stopped in front of the house.

Speaker 85 (02:58:25):
Yes, we don't get to old this school in the
next few minutes.

Speaker 3 (02:58:27):
We'll never get to it, you know.

Speaker 85 (02:58:28):
Just not pun under this blanket around the bed post.

Speaker 28 (02:58:31):
Throw the other end out the window where you're rusty?

Speaker 67 (02:58:33):
All right?

Speaker 40 (02:58:34):
Oh it doesn't come within fifteen feet of the ground.

Speaker 5 (02:58:36):
Then I knew it would, so did I?

Speaker 15 (02:58:39):
Dan? What are you going to do?

Speaker 13 (02:58:40):
I'm going to try and swing over that drain pipe.
It's our only chance.

Speaker 28 (02:58:44):
You can't do that, so I can't, Rusty, and.

Speaker 5 (02:58:46):
You'll have to do it too.

Speaker 85 (02:58:47):
There's no time to think you can't, Dan, You'll never
make it.

Speaker 21 (02:58:50):
Sorry, this avoids you're rusty.

Speaker 84 (02:58:55):
Come on, I stay, I'll hold the blanket tight. I'm
a fright Dan, there is time for you to be afraid.

Speaker 28 (02:59:00):
Come on right, be careful, take it easy, don't look
down whatever you do.

Speaker 5 (02:59:07):
You're all right.

Speaker 17 (02:59:09):
There we are.

Speaker 11 (02:59:11):
This plight's gonna get away.

Speaker 84 (02:59:12):
Oh it isn't down, Come on, hurry up, sting still
got a second until Rusty let yourself. God, only a
few more feet to go now you're all right?

Speaker 13 (02:59:24):
All right, Rusty, I got you?

Speaker 11 (02:59:28):
Okay, I guess so you think they heard I got it?

Speaker 28 (02:59:32):
Well, I'll say the basement, I'll there's.

Speaker 11 (02:59:34):
The door probably be locked.

Speaker 17 (02:59:37):
It is locked?

Speaker 28 (02:59:38):
Oh Dan, Now what it isn't a very complicated appear.
I don't think you to be able to open it
with my pet knife. Suppose captain, Now this goes away,
I'm afraid of.

Another stalking a red.

Speaker 5 (03:00:06):

It seems to me, Poppy that you have less choice
than I have. This house is completely surrounded and if
you'd rather not get it.

Speaker 40 (03:00:28):
Kappa Hoppy, you talk too much?

Speaker 65 (03:00:30):

Speaker 15 (03:00:41):
Read how do you like this?

Speaker 28 (03:00:54):
In a moment, return for the conclusion of danger, doctor
dan Field. But first, I'm now for the conclusion of.

Speaker 50 (03:01:20):
Sure.

Speaker 28 (03:01:21):
I know that the police don't make deals.

Speaker 62 (03:01:23):
Knocked.

Speaker 28 (03:01:23):
I'd gotten you into that mess, and I felt that
you were my personal responsibility, and they'll think we don't
appreciate it.

Speaker 69 (03:01:29):
I hate to think what.

Speaker 30 (03:01:30):
Would have happened to us if we hadn't come down
that drain part.

Speaker 18 (03:01:32):
Almost hadn't anyway, when the dream plight broke.

Speaker 14 (03:01:35):
Well, it's all over now.

Speaker 28 (03:01:36):
And now wait a minute, Doc, I guess how were
you so sure that Red was living at twenty eight
River's treatment.

Poppy was showing you through the house the bottle of
hand eye, which Poppy had kill us who left on
the dresser for.

Speaker 18 (03:01:46):
One thing, Captain, Well, I don't see how that would
have told you anything.

Speaker 15 (03:01:49):
I know a couple of women who die their heads,
believe it or not.

the waistbest Yeah, what was it? An empty curtain from
a tubue shaving cream. Captain the giant size to tuting

to do it again after you.

Speaker 25 (03:04:06):
Listen to Ali can't.

Speaker 88 (03:04:08):
But that happens after a word from your announcer.

Speaker 13 (03:04:12):
Now a health message from the College of Medicine and
Dentistry of New Jersey.

Speaker 64 (03:04:16):
Some ordinary house paints are child killers. The flakes of
lead based paint from peeling walls and ceilings pose a
real health menace. If paint chips are around for children
to swallow, they run the risk of lead poisoning. Some
signs of lead poisoning are fever, vomiting, crankiness, lack of appetite, diarrhea.
Often the child has a bluish black line around his gums.

(03:04:39):
Only by testing the child's blood can a doctor know
for sure whether it's lead poisoning. The treatment involves a
short hospital stay for a series of injections.

Speaker 28 (03:04:48):
And follow up blood tests. Keep lead poisoning away from
your door. Scrape any peeling.

Speaker 64 (03:04:53):
Or flaking walls in your house. Use only lead free
water based paints. If any children you know have been
swallowing things that are not meant to be eaten, take
them for an immediate examination at your baby keep Well
station or local hospital outpatient clinic.

Speaker 28 (03:05:07):
The proceeding a project supported by funds from the New
Jersey Regional Medical Program.

Speaker 88 (03:05:15):
And now, if you haven't already done so, turn off
your lights now and listen to Allie cat.

This is mister O. R. Jobler again.

Speaker 88 (03:29:24):
Let me tell you about next week's package of thrills
and chills. It's a story about but more afterword from
your own announcer.

Speaker 66 (03:29:34):
See see the leaf right here in my hands. Oh, yes,
isn't that new leaf?

Speaker 25 (03:29:40):
Yes, it is a new leaf here.

Speaker 66 (03:29:42):
I'm going to turn over a new leaf.

Speaker 53 (03:29:46):
Yet it leap new?

Speaker 22 (03:29:48):
What does that mean to turn over a new leaf?

Speaker 66 (03:29:51):
Well, I'm serious that you're going to have a little
change from what to what, from bad to good?

Speaker 5 (03:29:59):
Really?

Speaker 60 (03:30:00):
Yeah?

Speaker 5 (03:30:01):
Well, I suppose somebody was crying.

Speaker 66 (03:30:03):
They could switch some tears.

Speaker 22 (03:30:04):
To a smile.

Speaker 24 (03:30:05):
Suppose they were lonely.

Speaker 66 (03:30:07):
They could go from loneliness they're having somebody to pilot.

Speaker 29 (03:30:11):
Well, suppose somebody wasn't loved.

Speaker 5 (03:30:13):
Did they turn over a new leaf?

Speaker 66 (03:30:15):
They could go from that loving somebody to love with somebody.

Speaker 24 (03:30:19):
How did they do that?

Speaker 20 (03:30:20):
Oh?

Speaker 66 (03:30:20):
They have to do strive to love somebody.

Speaker 3 (03:30:22):
Just try.

Speaker 66 (03:30:23):
Yeah, so you seem to love people when they try.

Speaker 17 (03:30:27):
Love makes all things new again?

Speaker 24 (03:30:29):
Hey? What was that?

Speaker 11 (03:30:30):
Another sound of love from the Franciscans.

Speaker 34 (03:30:34):
This is mister owagain.

Speaker 88 (03:30:36):
Have you ever wanted to turn time backwards? I mean
really backwards? We do that next time with a play
titled Neanderthal. It's a story about a past which I
promise you will make you forget, at least for a while,
the woes and troubles of today, but that's next time.

Speaker 11 (03:31:01):
It is.

Speaker 5 (03:31:05):
Later.

Speaker 21 (03:31:07):
Then you.

Speaker 69 (03:31:11):
See the the Diary of Faith. Faith plays no favorites.

(03:31:32):
It could happen to you, Book.

Speaker 34 (03:31:38):
Ninety seven, page three hundred and two.

Speaker 5 (03:31:44):
Yes, here it is.

Speaker 92 (03:31:47):
The name Nelson Walker. Occupation. I'm determined. Yes, Nelson, you.

Speaker 5 (03:31:55):
Were a drifter.

Speaker 92 (03:31:57):
You have held a dozen different positions. You've never been
able to settle down. And now with the ledger of
your life lies open before me, I faith look ahead
to a single instant of horror.

Speaker 80 (03:32:14):
Okay, okay, never mind, that's the money here at Oh,
thank you, Nelson.

Speaker 24 (03:32:20):
Nelson, let me go.

Speaker 35 (03:32:23):
Go now truly never never.

Speaker 92 (03:32:37):
In the life of Nelson Walker, a decision for evil
was made. Then I faith intervened because of a little thing,
a horn, paper bag. Nelson Walker will die.

Speaker 34 (03:32:55):
But take heed of you who listen, or I faith enough,
unjust not unmindful of mortal rights. In a moment, I
will read again from the Diary of Faith.

Speaker 69 (03:33:14):
In a moment we will learn how little things change
the life of Nelson Walker. But first, here's a word
from our sponsor.

Speaker 34 (03:33:36):
In the life of Nelson Walker, a murder was committed but.

Speaker 92 (03:33:41):
In the last analysis, it was a little, seemingly insignificant
things that yielded the final outcome. Or you see, little
things are the tools with which I work. Remember, Nelson Walker,
how it all started. You were in a taxi cab

(03:34:02):
on your way through the airport. The catch are playing
for Hanolu and the job that was waiting for you.

Speaker 91 (03:34:11):
The cats are going a faster driver, eh, free now, mister,
I'm pushing the limit there.

Speaker 25 (03:34:16):
But I've only got ten minutes to get to the
airport to miss my plate.

Speaker 24 (03:34:18):
I'm sorry, doing the best of kin.

Speaker 25 (03:34:22):
What are you doing while you stopping?

Speaker 24 (03:34:23):
And did you see that signal as a train caming?

Speaker 5 (03:34:26):
Oh?

Speaker 35 (03:34:26):
Come on step one and run through it.

Speaker 24 (03:34:28):
You've got time and meet Bronner.

Speaker 35 (03:34:30):
I've got to miss my plane, your full runner.

Speaker 24 (03:34:32):
Ain't that too bad about your plane? Fella?

Speaker 89 (03:34:34):
I ain't misking my neck for nobody, so forgetting.

Speaker 92 (03:34:45):
Yes, Nelson, it was a little thing, a two minutes
delay at a railroad crossing. Yet unknown to you, those
moments were critical.

Speaker 34 (03:34:57):
In your life. When you finally arrived at the airport,
you've learned that your flight had already left.

Speaker 92 (03:35:05):
You went to the ticket desk, expecting more trouble when
you asked for a new reservation.

Speaker 49 (03:35:12):
Then I faith intervened, Well, i'll check the other tighten
to Walker, but I can pramase any.

Speaker 93 (03:35:20):
Use excuse me a minute chest reservation, Miss Carlton. Yeah,
cancelation fight twenty one. Yeah, yees god, thank you well,
mister Walker, you're really enough. That call was the last
minute cancelation. I can give you a seat now on

(03:35:41):
the plane leaving for Honolulu in an hour.

Speaker 92 (03:35:49):
Yes, Nelson, I faith arranged the last minute translation, and now.

Speaker 34 (03:35:56):
You had a seat on flight twenty one.

Speaker 92 (03:35:59):
Check your lunnage, bought a newspaper, and strode into the
airport restaurant, where you sat down and ordered coffee. As
you waited, a man's voice fifty to you from a
nearby boot.

Speaker 94 (03:36:14):
Now, don't you worry, mister player. No one knows anybody
in the nine who did. Seventy five thousand dollars is
a lot of money. But then I did it a
long time. You can count on Riek. Leave you a check,
pick up the stuff, be back here three days to
save the time.

Speaker 92 (03:36:35):
The words you heard angered you, Nelson, A man named
Rin seventy five thousand dollars so casually discussed, made you
feel small and cheap. You left the restaurant without glancing
at the man in the boot, and when your flight
was announced, You've got a board. A slight, well dressed

(03:36:58):
man sat next to you, and soon a big plane
sword in the field and headed west.

Speaker 34 (03:37:07):
A man next to you saw and settled back.

Speaker 17 (03:37:14):
Yes, sir, not a few hours. Will be in Honelulu.

Speaker 25 (03:37:18):
Yeah, that's just quite a place, I guess.

Speaker 27 (03:37:21):
So.

Speaker 17 (03:37:21):
I don't know anyone there myself, but I have heard
it very nice.

Speaker 25 (03:37:25):
I've never been there either.

Speaker 94 (03:37:26):
No, this is my first trip after way. I'm looking
forward to seeing the islands.

Speaker 25 (03:37:32):
Oh, I wish I felt the same way. I'm gonna
see plenty of them before I'm done and be stuck
on the outlying island for a year.

Speaker 17 (03:37:38):
Or one who had no temptation up there?

Speaker 68 (03:37:42):
Good chance to collect a nice steak, Yeah, a small one,
well enough so that you can take advantage of an
opportunity when it comes along.

Speaker 5 (03:37:51):
That's right.

Speaker 25 (03:37:54):
Do you have your own business now?

Speaker 17 (03:37:56):
Not yet, but I will soon. I'm going into the
air express this.

Speaker 94 (03:38:01):
There's a field with the future eric spread, Yes, moving
things past and smooth by air.

Speaker 13 (03:38:10):
With the Lord's.

Speaker 17 (03:38:10):
Modern planes can carry there's no limit to it.

Speaker 94 (03:38:13):
Cargo planes these days are flying box cars, and no
worry about refrigeration either the brake compartments aren't.

Speaker 17 (03:38:20):
Sealed or heated. You know, you can take a load
of fruit, for instance.

Speaker 5 (03:38:24):
And oh, there I go.

Speaker 17 (03:38:29):
Yet me started on air Express and I'll talk your legirl.

Speaker 25 (03:38:32):
Oh it's very interesting. But what business are you in now?

Speaker 9 (03:38:36):
Oh?

Speaker 17 (03:38:37):
Well, you might call me a sort of glorified delivery boy.
By the way, my name is Gage.

Speaker 25 (03:38:43):
I'm Walker, Nelson Walker.

Speaker 17 (03:38:44):
You had to know you're Nelson.

Speaker 94 (03:38:46):
My first name is Enrico Henrico, Yes, but of course
my friends have shortened that.

Speaker 17 (03:38:52):
I'm called Drake.

Speaker 14 (03:39:01):
Yes, Nelson.

Speaker 92 (03:39:03):
Because of a moment's delay on a railroad crossing and
an unexpected ticket cancelation, you now sat next to a
man with seventy five thousand dollars, the man you had
overheard in the airport restroom. You looked at him closely

(03:39:23):
and tried to remember all that you would overheard.

Speaker 34 (03:39:26):
But then another little thing happened.

Speaker 17 (03:39:33):
Say Nelson, I'll have got some gin ruby to pest.
The day suits me. It's not too steep, no need
for it to be say a quarter of centerpie.

Speaker 14 (03:39:42):
Okay.

Speaker 91 (03:39:43):
Oh, by the way, there's plenty of room over here
beside me. You want to move your breakcast recus, No, no,
it's it's all right here. Just had me all right,
want me to keep score. But let's see, I've got
to know distribus and pas his.

Speaker 9 (03:40:01):
This will do?

Speaker 25 (03:40:02):
If I going to drop a card there, calling card here,
I'll get a break.

Speaker 92 (03:40:10):
Yes, Nelson, was another little thing. Our calling card had dropped.
As you meant over to pick it up, the engraving
met your eye. The royal palm, jewelers and pencils on
it were the words contact Everett Ralston.

Speaker 34 (03:40:31):
Now Nelson, you learn more about rip.

Speaker 92 (03:40:36):
He was a courier, and in his briefcase was a
check for seventy five thousand dollars.

Speaker 34 (03:40:43):
For which he was to receive a fortune in jewel.

Speaker 92 (03:40:48):
With this in mind, you found it very difficult to
concentrate on the game of cards.

Speaker 9 (03:40:54):
You played.

Speaker 17 (03:40:57):
Well, Nelson, three games in a row for me. I
guess that's about enough consistency.

Speaker 24 (03:41:05):
I think I bet it get some sleep.

Speaker 25 (03:41:07):
Yeah, me too, I can forget the sound of those motives.

Speaker 17 (03:41:10):
Oh that's a little guys to me.

Speaker 94 (03:41:13):
Yes, sir, when I get my air express business rolling,
my whole life is going to be tied up with
airplay motors.

Speaker 17 (03:41:18):
Well see you in Honolulu.

Speaker 92 (03:41:26):
Yes, Nelson, tomorrow you would be in Honolulu with nothing
more than just another job to look forward to. Yet
in the adjacent seat was a man who held a fortune.

Speaker 5 (03:41:40):
In his hand.

Speaker 34 (03:41:42):
You were impatient. When the island of Oahu came into view.

Speaker 92 (03:41:47):
A few minutes later, a warning light linked on, and
it was time to fasten your safety.

Speaker 62 (03:41:52):
Now for the landing.

Speaker 25 (03:41:58):
Well, we're practically there, and I'm glad. Hey, you gotta
fasten your belt.

Speaker 5 (03:42:02):
Rick me.

Speaker 17 (03:42:04):
No, I always have, but nothing ever has happened. These
modern planes land smoother than you can park a car.
He watched. Now you see nothing to it.

Speaker 25 (03:42:17):
Yeah, but hey, we're not slowing down, stopping wrong.

Speaker 24 (03:42:19):
It's not stuffing.

Speaker 17 (03:42:20):
We're over shooting the field.

Speaker 70 (03:42:21):
The bakstred up, holding Jake, we're gonna crash that hanger.

Speaker 21 (03:42:24):
We're going to hit it.

Speaker 92 (03:42:25):
Cop For a terrifying instant, Nelson, your mind was staggered
by the awful impact. Then there's a torrent of noise

(03:42:46):
and confusion burst over you. You saw that, your newly
found friend, and we go.

Speaker 34 (03:42:52):
Gauge was dead this time he had not fastened his
safety belt.

Speaker 92 (03:42:59):
Almost not realizing what you were doing, you reached for
his briefcase. Then you took his walk and scrambled for
the door.

Speaker 95 (03:43:13):
We'll get you all out as soon as we can. Now, look,
those of you can walk, those of you can walk.
Give me your name, but check against the past your list. Now,
what is your name, sir?

Speaker 11 (03:43:22):
Me?

Speaker 25 (03:43:22):
Yes, my name?

Speaker 96 (03:43:24):
Uh, I'm Enrico Cage, Cage, that dead.

Speaker 25 (03:43:30):
Man, and there was riding next to me. His name
is Walker. Nelson Walker.

Speaker 34 (03:43:42):
Yes, Nelson.

Speaker 92 (03:43:44):
In the tragic confusion of an airplane crash, you made
a decision, a choice for evil.

Speaker 34 (03:43:53):
Then at that moment, then for you was certain.

Speaker 24 (03:43:58):
Soon Nelson I go.

Speaker 69 (03:44:00):
Write again on your page in the Diary of Faith.
The end for Nelson Walker is certain, certain as faith.
But before we continue our story, here's a word from
our announcer.

Speaker 92 (03:44:38):
Yes, Nelson Walker, your decision was a desperate one. You
drove to the hotel on Rico Gage had mentioned, blamed
his reservation, and then alone in your room, opened his briefcase.
The seventy five thousand dollars check was certified and made

(03:45:00):
out to the Royal Palm jewels. At that moment the
telephone right, it was ever at Rosston. The Nain pencils
on the calling card Gauge had draw.

Speaker 34 (03:45:13):
I heard about the plane.

Speaker 5 (03:45:14):
Next morning me to Gauge, I do.

Speaker 25 (03:45:17):
You're all right? Yes, I'm fine, thank you, Ready for
business and I can convict you afternoon.

Speaker 56 (03:45:23):
Yes, mister Rawson, I'll ba in your office at say
three o'clock.

Speaker 25 (03:45:28):
Fine, I'll see you then.

Speaker 94 (03:45:32):
Okay, here the third thirty two have each one the
perfect game. Now you have to check.

Speaker 25 (03:45:40):
Yes, of course, here you are seventy five thousand dollars.

Speaker 5 (03:45:43):
Thank you.

Speaker 55 (03:45:45):
Certainly is a pleasure to do business with the man
you represent. Never any degreeing over price, never any red date.
It's all over in the matter of Minick. I imagine
that you you too, mister Gauge. There's mister Ralston that does.
The faster things moved, the better I like it.

Speaker 92 (03:46:07):
Yes, Nelson, every instance of your impersonation with a moment
of danger.

Speaker 34 (03:46:16):
After you left Ralston's office, you.

Speaker 92 (03:46:18):
Made a reservation under an assumed name on a plane
meeting for Austree that night. Then you walked back to
your hotel. The case of pearls safe in your pocket.
It was then, Nelson, that I faith again intervened. And
another little thing happened, and a woman in front of

(03:46:40):
you carrying a large package opened the door of her car.

Speaker 34 (03:46:45):
A paper bag ripped, a number of parcels fell to
the ground.

Speaker 11 (03:46:50):
Oh that's stupid.

Speaker 5 (03:46:52):
Here, let me help you.

Speaker 3 (03:46:53):
Thank you.

Speaker 80 (03:46:53):
That stupid clerk gave me a torn Why Nelson, Nelson Walker.

Speaker 25 (03:46:59):
Truly mastered, say this is a surprise. I had no
idea you were out this way. What are you doing here?

Speaker 15 (03:47:03):
Oh?

Speaker 11 (03:47:04):
Going a rich man, you might say it.

Speaker 8 (03:47:06):
Tell me when did you get in?

Speaker 25 (03:47:08):
Just this morning?

Speaker 56 (03:47:08):
I came by, I came by ship, luxury liner. Yeah,
and believe me, this be shivering in San Francisco. Oh
this your first trip, donaldu.

Speaker 25 (03:47:19):
Yeah, yeah it is. I'm afraid I won't say much
of the place either. I have to leave tonight.

Speaker 80 (03:47:23):
Oh that's too bad. In that case, I suppose I'll
have to be the aggressive aggressor. What do you mean
you're taking me to dinner tonight?

Speaker 17 (03:47:31):
Nelson?

Speaker 25 (03:47:33):
Right, sure, all right, I'd love that.

Speaker 11 (03:47:36):
We'll have cocktails at the Terrorist Club first. The Terrorists
Club's my favorite spot. We have a lot to talk about.

Speaker 80 (03:47:41):
Nothing and now you've heard the lives and loves of
Truty masters. Any comments, Nelson, only one.

Speaker 25 (03:47:52):
They haven't changed a bit.

Speaker 11 (03:47:53):
Truty If you mean I still like luxury and still
know a good thing when I see it.

Speaker 8 (03:47:59):
You're right.

Speaker 25 (03:48:00):
But now about that dinner, Oh constructive, I'm famis.

Speaker 80 (03:48:04):
Give me a moment to make with the lipstick and
I'll be right back, all right, but hurry, will you?

Speaker 13 (03:48:08):
Well?

Speaker 17 (03:48:09):
Well, Gage, you're again.

Speaker 25 (03:48:11):
Oh hello, mister Ralsom, how are you fine?

Speaker 17 (03:48:14):
And it's bad joined me to drink?

Speaker 5 (03:48:17):
No, no, thank you.

Speaker 55 (03:48:18):
I'm with someone and we're just about to leave. I
see prepped another time at the gauge. Oh, by the way,
I forgot to mention it this afternoon at the office. Christy,
I'd like you to come out to my place during Saturday.

Speaker 25 (03:48:31):
Well, I'm sorry, mister Awesome, but you say I'm leaving tonight,
too bad?

Speaker 17 (03:48:37):
Anytime you're back this way, please drop you? And why
Prutty Musty?

Speaker 24 (03:48:42):
Hello Everett.

Speaker 25 (03:48:44):
You you know Trudy.

Speaker 17 (03:48:45):
Oh, yes, we're all friends, aren't we, my dear, Yes
we are, by the way, Effort.

Speaker 11 (03:48:50):
How's your new bride?

Speaker 14 (03:48:52):
Right?

Speaker 17 (03:48:53):
Oh, yes, it's my wife.

Speaker 5 (03:48:55):
She's fine.

Speaker 17 (03:48:56):
Right, Well, I have to be running.

Speaker 25 (03:48:59):
Good Bye, goodbye, mister mister Gage.

Speaker 8 (03:49:04):
Why did he call you there?

Speaker 5 (03:49:08):
I have no idea.

Speaker 92 (03:49:16):
With another little thing, Nelson. Mister Ralston also favored the
terrorist club. Now you fully realize that the sooners you
were away from Honolulu, the better off you would be.

Speaker 34 (03:49:31):
You hurried through dinner with Trudy, and then an hour later,
alone in.

Speaker 92 (03:49:36):
Your hotel room, you smoked innumerable cigarettes and you waited
impatiently for the.

Speaker 34 (03:49:43):
Time to pass.

Speaker 5 (03:49:50):
Hello.

Speaker 50 (03:49:50):
Hello, this is truly.

Speaker 35 (03:49:54):
Truly I'm surprised.

Speaker 50 (03:49:57):
Surprised that I asked for mister.

Speaker 81 (03:49:58):
Gage is Roman.

Speaker 25 (03:50:01):
Well, uh yeah, but I can explain that. You see,
it's a business deal.

Speaker 22 (03:50:06):
I see.

Speaker 25 (03:50:07):
But surely I thought you were going home.

Speaker 11 (03:50:09):
I was.

Speaker 80 (03:50:10):
But frankly enough, my curiosity got the best say.

Speaker 32 (03:50:14):
I had to find out he thinks.

Speaker 11 (03:50:16):
First, you see, I've been checking on me.

Speaker 25 (03:50:21):
Where are here?

Speaker 51 (03:50:23):
The airport?

Speaker 29 (03:50:25):
The airport, Yeah, you've seen, Nelson.

Speaker 80 (03:50:28):
I knew you were lying this afternoon when.

Speaker 50 (03:50:30):
I first met you.

Speaker 25 (03:50:31):
But you mean lying about what.

Speaker 8 (03:50:33):
Riding by ship?

Speaker 32 (03:50:34):
Luxury liners and the main I only come in once
a week on Wednesday.

Speaker 80 (03:50:39):
This is Monday.

Speaker 11 (03:50:41):
Check the airlines, particularly the fight to crash.

Speaker 80 (03:50:44):
This morning, and I found out that an old friend
of ours is killed, a man named Helpson.

Speaker 34 (03:50:50):
Mor moment, Nelson, you were done.

Speaker 92 (03:51:04):
Trudy Masters knew that you were impersonating Enrico Gage, that
you had had business with Everett Ralston, a dealer in pearls.
Your first impulse was to flee, but then you realized that,
like you, Truty Masters was interested in only one thing.

Speaker 34 (03:51:27):
Money. You arranged to meet her, and you're a darkened
hangar at the airport, and.

Speaker 92 (03:51:33):
You promised her ten thousand dollars in exchange for silence,
ten thousand dollars which you did not have.

Speaker 80 (03:51:50):
Good April, mister Gage earlier over here, Well did you
bring the money?

Speaker 14 (03:52:00):
Yeah?

Speaker 25 (03:52:01):
Are you alone?

Speaker 11 (03:52:02):
Of course? What did you expect?

Speaker 17 (03:52:05):
I don't know.

Speaker 25 (03:52:06):
I'm not just a dealing with blackness.

Speaker 17 (03:52:08):
Never mind as where's the money here?

Speaker 9 (03:52:11):
In the sensual of.

Speaker 29 (03:52:13):
Thank yous, Helston, let me go, Helson.

Speaker 34 (03:52:17):
I'll never let you go.

Speaker 5 (03:52:20):
What is it?

Speaker 11 (03:52:20):
What is it?

Speaker 17 (03:52:21):
Who's there?

Speaker 13 (03:52:21):
Now?

Speaker 25 (03:52:22):
Truly you'll never know?

Speaker 62 (03:52:25):
Never?

Speaker 13 (03:52:26):
Hey, you were there? Hey, hey, stop, what are you?

Speaker 5 (03:52:28):
What are you?

Speaker 14 (03:52:30):
Good?

Speaker 34 (03:52:30):
W Yes, Nelson Walker, Now you hadn't murdered.

Speaker 14 (03:52:45):
Yet.

Speaker 92 (03:52:46):
As you ran blindly through the night your thoughts were
only of escape. It's a pilot who've heard Crude's last.

Speaker 34 (03:52:54):
Prize spread the alarm. You saw theres joined chase for you.

Speaker 92 (03:53:00):
You blended the rear of a busy freight hanger and
crossed for a moment behind a pile of boxes. Then suddenly,
the two words air Express, stenciled on a large green
crate in front of you gave you an idea away out.

(03:53:21):
You thought briefly of Enrico Gage.

Speaker 71 (03:53:25):
Yes, sir, moving things fast and smooth by air is
the only way to greet by cargo planes these days,
of just like flying Voxgard Cassie Bad.

Speaker 34 (03:53:40):
It was your only chance, Nelson, and you took it.

Speaker 92 (03:53:44):
The large green crate contained a shipping of linen, so
you emptied half the contents, and then, realizing it would
be cold in the air, you wrapped yourself in.

Speaker 34 (03:53:56):
The remaining cloth.

Speaker 92 (03:53:58):
An hour later, the crate with you inside, the strapped
securely in the unsealed freight compartment of a plane, And
as the fore motored machine roared into the night, you
were safe.

Speaker 34 (03:54:14):
Now, Nelson.

Speaker 92 (03:54:16):
You still had your furrows, and you still had your life.
But soon, I faith will write again. Soon I will
record your final entry in the Diary of Faith.

Speaker 69 (03:54:36):
Before the final entry in this chapter of the Diary
of Faith, here's a word from our sponsor.

Speaker 92 (03:54:57):
Yes, Nelson Walker, As you huddled safely in a box
in the cold, unsealed freight compartment the giant plane, you
were content for each hour saw you farther away from Honolulu, where.

Speaker 34 (03:55:14):
You had choked a woman to death.

Speaker 92 (03:55:17):
You were not aware that each moment also carried you
closer to the center of a heavy storm that thundered
over the vast Pacific. Yes, soon even the planes pilots
became concerned with the tempest that raged around them.

Speaker 25 (03:55:41):
It's getting worse.

Speaker 5 (03:55:42):
Burst.

Speaker 35 (03:55:43):
We'll never get through.

Speaker 25 (03:55:44):
We gotta start climbing, right.

Speaker 69 (03:55:45):
Skipper certainly looks rough ahead, doesn't that I don't imagine
we'll Hey, take what is it, skipper?

Speaker 17 (03:55:51):
What's wrong?

Speaker 25 (03:55:51):
I'm a point it doesn't respond at all, going dead right?

Speaker 3 (03:55:54):
Huh, that's a pretty thought.

Speaker 20 (03:55:56):
We can't pin him without it.

Speaker 13 (03:55:57):
What are you gonna do?

Speaker 3 (03:55:58):
Turn back?

Speaker 35 (03:55:59):
Oh, I won't elpas gons all around us.

Speaker 5 (03:56:01):
Now, all right, listen, get back to the break and
start heaving it out.

Speaker 17 (03:56:04):
We got a gain out, all right, We're all right.

Speaker 13 (03:56:06):
I'll start it out, and.

Speaker 5 (03:56:07):
They went, come on, Sae, he's sick.

Speaker 13 (03:56:11):
Good to daddy. They're going out it around with Skipper.

Speaker 95 (03:56:14):
They're going the first one and he changed how a
little keep it going. Okay, okay, okay, here goes here
goes another one.

Speaker 3 (03:56:25):
See half empty swing skipper.

Speaker 62 (03:56:28):
How are we doing now?

Speaker 20 (03:56:30):
They're too heavy?

Speaker 3 (03:56:31):
Trick.

Speaker 27 (03:56:32):
Wow, this mart screen.

Speaker 95 (03:56:35):
Baby might do the trick he can joy with fine fight.

Speaker 15 (03:56:39):
Well kay, now I'm the fourth kicked in again.

Speaker 25 (03:56:43):
I've been the fuel line.

Speaker 96 (03:56:45):
Oh good, glad to hear that say that last trade
was getting me a tough time. Anyway, Well, here we go, son,
i'mping out of this man right upstairs.

Speaker 10 (03:56:55):
It is.

Speaker 13 (03:56:56):
Man, this certainly is a lulu.

Speaker 96 (03:56:58):
Read that time all the way I clear twenty thousand feet, well,
twenty thirty thousand.

Speaker 3 (03:57:04):
It's all the same with one of these, you know, Skipper.

Speaker 96 (03:57:08):
They're mighty handy gadgets to have a long oxygen math.

Speaker 76 (03:57:13):
Yeah, man, they're all right for a guy who doesn't
like choking to death.

Speaker 92 (03:57:25):
Yes, Even as Nelson Walker choked the breath of life
from Trudy Masters, so did the means of his escape,
stifling him first into one consciousness then to autom of death.
And now the plane carrying the lifeless body of a

(03:57:45):
man who chose.

Speaker 34 (03:57:46):
Evil drowns through the night. It is time to close
the book.

Speaker 92 (03:57:53):
In the case of Nelson Walker, as in the case
of the Hall and I faith the instrument of a plan,
and the countless little things are the tools with which
I work. Because of a delay of a railroad crossing,
a last minute ticket cancellation, the dropped calling card, Nelson

(03:58:19):
Walker reached the crossroad of decisions.

Speaker 34 (03:58:24):
He took the path of evil.

Speaker 92 (03:58:26):
And then because of a torn paper bag, Nelson Walker
met Trudy Masters and eventually justice underwell of moorl who
have listened and remember, there is a pain for you.

Speaker 13 (03:58:43):
In the Diary of.

Speaker 69 (03:58:44):
Fate, the cast of the Nelson Walker entry included Gloria Blondelle,
Herbert Litton, Patrick mcgean, Jack Edwards, Junior ray erlenborn Burne, Surrey,
and Hal Sawyer. Diary of Fate is a Larry Finley

(03:59:05):
transcription brought to you from Hollywood Adventures in Time and
Space told in Future Tents. When man first crossed the

(03:59:38):
vast distances of outer space to land on strange worlds,
he found that someone had been there before him. The
ruined canals of Mars, the smashed cities of Titan and
Centaurus two and three, all these were evidenced that one
hundred thousand years ago a race of intelligent beings built

(03:59:59):
there cities across the galaxy. They knew space travel, atomic power, astrophysics.

Speaker 5 (04:00:07):
And engineering.

Speaker 68 (04:00:09):
And then they destroyed themselves completely, so that of all
the cities on a thousand worlds, only dust and rubble remained.
Why why did these beings obliterate all record of themselves?
That is the mystery of the lost Race. The freighter

(04:00:32):
Caillia bound out of Earth for Cetus Alpha two came
into normal flight after one hundred three days in overdrive.
The stars were unfamiliar. The constellations known on Earth had disappeared,
but there was a yellow sun.

Speaker 24 (04:00:44):
Off the port, and about it revolved three planets.

Speaker 17 (04:00:52):
What do you make of the breaks?

Speaker 3 (04:00:53):
It is not any of the star charts, Captain fort
and I checked through one and three. A dead all right,
I have to take a close look at number two.
Turn the scale mm pull her ice caps. She's green
around the belt. Let's take her down to a five
mile orbit, swing around it for a look. Alert for deceleration.

Speaker 5 (04:01:11):
I sa.

Speaker 3 (04:01:13):
Throwing the manuals. Power room, Power room. I we're going
down to have a look at something. If there's just
enough power to keep her under control. All right, breaks,
hang on your stomach, he said for me, Captain Barton
coming in town. Do you mind if I sit down

(04:01:37):
free fall sickness. I'm afraid I'm not an old space hand.
Oh we'll level out in a minute.

Speaker 24 (04:01:43):
Do you want something?

Speaker 3 (04:01:44):
Yes, you can out of forward, dry and smack in
the middle of a new planetary system. Briggs says, it's unreported.
That's rather good news, isn't it. It depends first. Report's
pretty common. Ilways take a claim on her in case
they're any mineral discoveries.

Speaker 97 (04:01:58):
Why I met the possibility of hoki logical finds.

Speaker 3 (04:02:01):
I'm afraid I'll leave that to you, mister Howell, you're
the expert. Coming up five, Captain, level of hang on,
how power room, all the study, She goes, We'll orbit
at slow cruising speed. All right, clear the scope breaks,
I sir, m nice looking piece of real estate. Well,

(04:02:25):
the space guard requires I check up for Radioactive's goal
and lost race rooms. You're landing, landing. I had got
a schedule to keep. Mister Howell, I can't sit down
and every lump up dirt I run into. We'll do
a spectroscope check, and I figured you would spot any ruins.

Speaker 97 (04:02:40):
Alright, Wait a minute, they're in the lower quadrance. What
that full spot in the vegetation? Those are ruins? All right,
I assure how yes, I've seen the lost race rubble
on Centaurus.

Speaker 13 (04:02:56):
Do here.

Speaker 24 (04:02:58):
You can see it plainly dust and rubble.

Speaker 3 (04:03:01):
That's what I get for calling in an expert breaks
stand by to take it out of five thousand feet
all this thinking, look, there goes my schedule. Seen enough.
How he's going to set me back five hours?

Speaker 29 (04:03:22):
Interesting?

Speaker 3 (04:03:24):
Wait, what's wrong?

Speaker 24 (04:03:28):
I don't believe it?

Speaker 97 (04:03:29):
Marvelous, incredible, that's sputtering. How what is it over that
rise in the ground. It's a section of the city
still standing.

Speaker 3 (04:03:37):
Hey, you're right.

Speaker 97 (04:03:38):
That hill must have shielded from the blast. Captain, You've
got to land, Land, You've got to This is the
first lost race site that's ever been spotted.

Speaker 24 (04:03:47):
Of course you'll land.

Speaker 3 (04:03:48):
How we get a thousand dollar bonus for every day
underpaw for the run.

Speaker 24 (04:03:53):
But you don't understand it's the biggest find in the century.

Speaker 3 (04:03:56):
You can shot it and you'll have to get back somehow.
That's all.

Speaker 97 (04:03:59):
I'm not down to rake over old dust heaps, Captain Wharton,
I'm on commission to the space God. You may have
to answer to them.

Speaker 3 (04:04:05):
I think up one. Look, how strictly speaking, you're a passenger,
which you've got. You don't belong on the bridge. I'm
not landing down there, breaks emergency from the power room.
Something must have blown. Power room, Power room, Danton. What's
wrong down there? Danton? He got landswer any serious hipting

(04:04:26):
reship with fuel locker. That's five pounds of percent Him'll
go and kick us right out of space, Tanton, Davin,
what happened? Went blue?

Speaker 50 (04:04:34):
Main too coupling?

Speaker 3 (04:04:35):
She's what's the damage?

Speaker 24 (04:04:37):
The main coop burnout bearing a coupling injector valve and
the needle case.

Speaker 3 (04:04:42):
Can you make repairs? I didn't flight, and you're rais
enough power to land?

Speaker 24 (04:04:46):
I don't know, Captain the wiring shot it's right like
a tomcat. I might be able to get something from
the deceleration of auxiliaries.

Speaker 3 (04:04:54):
Get a jewelry rig on her. We'll try to set
her down. Sir Briggs, Yes, Sir alert the price, landing
Signal room, Signal room, Langston, get off a position ficks
and that's a west stand by. Well, mister Howe, I
guess you're going to join your friends in the lost race.
I just hope it's not permanently. Leve it off now,

(04:05:27):
Captain from a rupper point.

Speaker 14 (04:05:30):
That's it.

Speaker 29 (04:05:30):
She's fucking bad.

Speaker 3 (04:05:32):
Five more minutes in the whole place to shake loose
bower room stand by for bob last on signal already.
I'm gonna try it for that clearing too narrow good
A one for a dollar, all right, hang on, breach, breach,

(04:05:54):
you're all right? Hit my hit on the panel, all right,
seem to be well down, Yes, her luck hasn't run
out yet, calling power room. All right down there, all right.
I want to complete damage check and repair estimate. Get

(04:06:16):
up here as soon as you got it for me.
Break sare right now, yes, sir, right, I guess so
as soon as we get down to report, get a
detailed laught help them with repairs.

Speaker 32 (04:06:25):
Cat Moreton, what is it Langston speak? Sending circuits blom
s fair tubes.

Speaker 3 (04:06:30):
I was a pretty rough.

Speaker 65 (04:06:31):
Landing, Captain.

Speaker 24 (04:06:32):
They're gone.

Speaker 65 (04:06:33):
I can't replace them. This side of lunar space station.

Speaker 3 (04:06:35):
I see, well the SS I want to do it,
and the space Guard monitor reports UPDA, Going to captain?

Speaker 65 (04:06:42):
Why not sending circuits went out when the blast went
off down there? I didn't get the SOS out. Thank
you Langston. Get back and see what you can sound with?
Does that mean bad news? We were an overdrive, mister Hall.
It would take forty years to search the distance we've

(04:07:03):
traveled in one day. Consequently, when the ship doesn't make port,
doesn't transmit a position fix, they forget about it. Oh,
I see, and with the radio out, we blast off
on our own power, or we don't get off.

Speaker 24 (04:07:23):
Got your damage for the captain? Well here it's on
a B twenty three checklists.

Speaker 3 (04:07:29):
Not bad words. Damn? How long will it take you
for repairs? I don't know an estimate? I know, gypsy
fortune teller. How about the lifeboat for deep space?

Speaker 24 (04:07:44):
But they teaching at Sand's point, basket weaving damp k
lifeboat couldn't lift half a light year off this year money.

Speaker 3 (04:07:50):
Damp, I'll take just so much. And if he converted
to be sending him drive.

Speaker 24 (04:07:57):
Converder lengths were mashed when we came down.

Speaker 3 (04:08:00):
How long is it going to take you to repair
the main drive? Look, Captain, I got two hands. You
want me to hold a lug wrench and my tea tree?

Speaker 83 (04:08:07):
Here you say, here, Captain whole Lazzi crewsman spitting all
over me ever since we blast it off.

Speaker 21 (04:08:12):
Now you can all wait on me. Do you think
you are the only power man on this chef? That's who?

Speaker 83 (04:08:18):
Ain't satisfied with the way I'm working? Go high yourself.
Another boy with's a lozzi with him? I'll take my
own sweet time?

Speaker 3 (04:08:27):
What's the matter with him? Had a buck in his hair?
Space for tea? Captain, he's been locked up in the
power room for a day. We don't have enough trouble, Briggs.
Remind me of Slug the psycho Technician. When we get back,
don't tell me nobody gets in the deep space who
isn't emotionally stable? For what are you gonna do about him?
Captain Nothing? Stay off his back? How was your captain's
the only man who get us out of here. We

(04:08:50):
want to hit the cradle at New York Spaceboard again.
We've got to keep him happy.

Speaker 24 (04:08:54):
Captain Wharton.

Speaker 97 (04:08:55):
As long as we're landed and we do have to
wait for the engines to be fixed. I suppose we
can't explore the lost race ruins.

Speaker 3 (04:09:03):
I'm looking, mister all I can't spare the man. We
are now stuck tight until Dampton gets those engines fixed
and to be camped, which is entirely possible. We are
stuck period. Oh oh, Briggs, I want you to keep
a careful eye on the man. Space fatigue is nothing

(04:09:23):
compared to what we might run up.

Speaker 65 (04:09:25):
Against now, Captain Wharton, Captain, I've got it senting circuits, No, no, sir,
but I picked up the incoming video ban.

Speaker 3 (04:09:33):
Well that's something. Can you get the mail call through?
A man could use a little lift right now.

Speaker 65 (04:09:38):
Well, the schedule one way personal is a due at
twenty three thirty, grantitch good.

Speaker 3 (04:09:42):
I don't want to help Morale Langston rig the receiving booth.
Oh this is a break being the folks at home.
Maybe enough to keep everybody on an even kear. I
know I'll be glad to see that kid in mine.

Speaker 35 (04:10:05):
No, no, yeah, mister Langston, get a handsome out of
the booth. Wear the glass right off the too.

Speaker 17 (04:10:11):
I take it easy, Williams.

Speaker 3 (04:10:13):
Everybody gets three minutes.

Speaker 35 (04:10:14):
Hey, Kelly, I bet that David yours burned up a
circuit tack.

Speaker 3 (04:10:17):
How do you know it was his girl?

Speaker 65 (04:10:18):
You can't tell through the boot.

Speaker 35 (04:10:19):
Who else would call that eighth? What'd you say, Kelly?

Speaker 69 (04:10:22):
Oh?

Speaker 97 (04:10:22):
Nothing, You don't have to just stands in front of
the pickup.

Speaker 21 (04:10:25):
Two bind Oh, brother, I can just see that. Hey, hey,
it's a boy, Paul Alice and a boy.

Speaker 24 (04:10:32):
They're gonna show him to me in the circuit tomorrow.

Speaker 35 (04:10:35):
Who's next, mister Langston?

Speaker 65 (04:10:37):
The last cause coming through now on ticker, it's for William.

Speaker 21 (04:10:40):
Wait a minute, William, my arm lapping at my car.

Speaker 3 (04:10:43):
No call today, Dad, You're a liar.

Speaker 24 (04:10:45):
Langston.

Speaker 21 (04:10:46):
Hey, my girl calls on every scheduled circuit.

Speaker 29 (04:10:49):
That must be mine.

Speaker 21 (04:10:50):
Let go, Dad.

Speaker 3 (04:10:50):
Maybe Jennie was busy waiting tables at lunch room.

Speaker 21 (04:10:53):
What do you know about her hands?

Speaker 35 (04:10:54):
And you kidding?

Speaker 21 (04:10:55):
She just swelled, kid. Everybody at New.

Speaker 3 (04:10:57):
York Spaceport knows how.

Speaker 21 (04:10:58):
Yeah, I than you'll hanging around Jane toe.

Speaker 83 (04:11:00):
Now wait a minute, damn take it easy, DWN. You
and Williams made this up between you, didn't you. You're
gonna take my car? William?

Speaker 35 (04:11:06):
Your space happened?

Speaker 21 (04:11:07):
You used to hang around with her before I cut
you out.

Speaker 35 (04:11:09):
Listen, D, and you were looking enough to get her
well enough alone.

Speaker 83 (04:11:12):
You bet I got her all right, and you're not
going to steal her back, william saying, going up steel
crazy D.

Speaker 21 (04:11:17):
Get him off, Lion, you know, just going on in there.
Flet him fight prev. I'm gonna took your call on
calm down, picture it look out he's got a rancher.

Speaker 24 (04:11:33):
He's nuts.

Speaker 21 (04:11:34):
Nobody gets a call, No, buddy, how do you like that? Williams?
You ain't gonna hear from Jandy no more?

Speaker 3 (04:11:40):
How do you like that? After him? Kelly handsOn, Yeah,
he's left the ship.

Speaker 24 (04:11:48):
Let him go the jealous screwball. Sure, but that's the
only man who can get us off of here.

Speaker 3 (04:12:03):
I want you so help me, Briggs. I want you
to keep an eye on tamp Well. I didn't think
he'd go off this way.

Speaker 24 (04:12:08):
All right.

Speaker 35 (04:12:08):
It's that girl here, sir. He's crazy jealous about it.

Speaker 3 (04:12:11):
Any reason for Williams, No, sir, she's a.

Speaker 35 (04:12:13):
Good kid, too good for then. I guess he's just
so afraid to lose her to some other guy. He's
getting psychopathic about it.

Speaker 3 (04:12:19):
Where we've got to get him back, and when every
man equipped and ready for search parties immediately a Sir
Williams riggs some portable search lights and issue hand blasters
and radiation tickers. Kelly, you at the second party you
find Tampton, send up a signal flayer, yus, we do
find him. We'll be on this planet until the next
freighter stumbles on us, maybe ten thousand years from now.

(04:12:54):
Oh left light of Hanson.

Speaker 24 (04:12:57):
This is amazing, Captain Lost, prays to Bild. He's actually standing.

Speaker 5 (04:13:01):
Okay, is it?

Speaker 18 (04:13:03):
Ah?

Speaker 24 (04:13:03):
It's nothing?

Speaker 25 (04:13:04):
And shadow.

Speaker 97 (04:13:06):
Twice gives me the Willies to be able to find
out so much about them, their science, are, what they
looked like, perhaps even why they destroyed themselves.

Speaker 3 (04:13:14):
I'm beginning to wonder about that. How you should they
destroyed themselves? Maybe they lost a war to another race
winners who have left traces.

Speaker 97 (04:13:24):
Jenghis Khan, the Mongol emperor, left a pile of skills
as a monument after he destroyed his enemies.

Speaker 24 (04:13:29):
But there's been nothing like that, found, no.

Speaker 3 (04:13:32):
Clues at all.

Speaker 28 (04:13:33):
Nothing.

Speaker 97 (04:13:33):
When they decided to wipe themselves out, they did a
thorough job. But why, That's what we've been asking for
fifty years. They wanted to end like.

Speaker 3 (04:13:42):
That, Captain, the rise of it? Keep going? Anything on
us side breaks? No, sir, handsome, what is it?

Speaker 24 (04:13:50):
I don't know.

Speaker 21 (04:13:51):
It's a funny kind of a glow because I shot without.

Speaker 3 (04:13:53):
Think I'll get trig abbey. How well, yes, where do
you think the light is coming from?

Speaker 24 (04:13:59):
Down there? It's an amphitheater, stone seats and a hood.

Speaker 3 (04:14:04):
It looks like a band show. What's up?

Speaker 24 (04:14:06):
Captain?

Speaker 3 (04:14:06):
Wait a minute?

Speaker 97 (04:14:08):
Well, howell, no, that's the lost gray sign on the hood.
But what sort of hieroglyphic? The only thing we'd ever
found before? One in each ruin?

Speaker 3 (04:14:21):
What does it mean?

Speaker 24 (04:14:22):
Some kind of a warning? I think?

Speaker 3 (04:14:25):
Come on, we're going down there. Careful now.

Speaker 29 (04:14:32):
There's a platform or some kind down here.

Speaker 3 (04:14:34):
Looks like a lecture platform, doesn't it?

Speaker 24 (04:14:36):
Or an This might have been a temple.

Speaker 97 (04:14:39):
Perhaps the lost Gray sign had a religious significance.

Speaker 24 (04:14:43):
It looks like a throne to me, a thrown five
feet high. Briggs.

Speaker 3 (04:14:49):
Climb up there and see if there were any control
of this machinery? Is the one the puny man that
sit on There's a lever up here, so I try it?

Speaker 24 (04:14:59):
Go ahead?

Speaker 3 (04:15:02):
Hey, what what's that missed?

Speaker 28 (04:15:05):
Like?

Speaker 3 (04:15:06):
A steambat. I wonder if Kelly and Williams ran it down.

Speaker 5 (04:15:09):
He's like lint up and keep looking for dance there
in the hood.

Speaker 3 (04:15:16):
It's Williams and Kelly and crazy jet Joggie.

Speaker 8 (04:15:20):
Brand.

Speaker 3 (04:15:22):
You could see him a three dimensional image, some kind
of television. Get down breaks, I said, did you see it?

Speaker 5 (04:15:29):
Sipper?

Speaker 3 (04:15:30):
I was just thinking about him, and there he was,
and we also out of the way. I'm gonna try it.
Pick up Earth replaced the receiver, dance smashed. Just throw
the levery. That's my son.

Speaker 24 (04:15:49):
I'll be darn his music list.

Speaker 13 (04:15:52):
Say it reaches Earth?

Speaker 3 (04:15:53):
All right?

Speaker 97 (04:15:55):
What imagine a television without a transmitter. Looks like the
Lost Race was ahead of us in more ways than one.
Go up and try it, howel it's amazing, amazing television
without a transmitter. This this machine may be the clue
to the mystery of the Lost Race.

Speaker 24 (04:16:17):
I'll try it, Mary.

Speaker 1 (04:16:20):
I've told you I like my paper first in the morning.
If that youngster wants to know how the tigers did,
let him wait until I.

Speaker 24 (04:16:29):
My father in the try it. Remarkable, captain, you can
see the whole room clearly.

Speaker 21 (04:16:35):
Hey, how about me, captain, Let me get up there.
I like to see my baby. Ali told me all
about it out.

Speaker 3 (04:16:40):
What's the matter, Hansom? I kick somewhere, wrench hold it up?
What it's dance? That means he's been here. We're on
this trail, all right, come on, how let's go. But
the baby wouldn't take a minute, Captain right, Hans. We
gotta find Danton first. All right, now, let's get movie.
Hold it. What's the recall flair killing his minifound? Dampton? Oh,

(04:17:03):
I hope that crazy fool isn't one piece. We start
back now, Yes, that came from the ship another player. No,
that was an explosion. That's all we need. Now, something
more to happen to the ship? Oh, it's the main

(04:17:28):
jets smashed flat. All a step check through the ship
for the damage is crumpled like an accordion pick cooms.
Kelly's potty, We got him, sut Tenton.

Speaker 35 (04:17:40):
Holy what happened here?

Speaker 3 (04:17:42):
Somebody blew up the main jets? Dampton? Do you know
anything about this?

Speaker 9 (04:17:48):
See?

Speaker 24 (04:17:48):
Not much? He doesn't.

Speaker 21 (04:17:49):
He's crazy enough to blow us all up.

Speaker 24 (04:17:51):
Listen, Hanson, I admit I went off my head to night,
but I'm not crazy enough to commit suicide.

Speaker 3 (04:17:56):
The jets of smash. We're all marooned up the same creek.

Speaker 65 (04:17:59):
I still think think he's got something to do with it.

Speaker 97 (04:18:01):
Lay off hands and we found him wandering up in
the hills, and he was with us when the blast
went off.

Speaker 3 (04:18:05):
Yes, that's right, you saw your recall flare before the explosions.

Speaker 50 (04:18:10):
Ah.

Speaker 3 (04:18:10):
I guess that puts that underclear.

Speaker 24 (04:18:12):
Then who did it? Captain?

Speaker 3 (04:18:14):
I don't know how. Looks like somebody didn't want us
to leave this planet. Well, we still got one slim
chance left if we can repair the lifeboat Skipper. It's
gone gone, the escape ports open, the boat's missing.

Speaker 24 (04:18:27):
Oh what else? The arms chest was cleaned out, sir,
and the fuel locker was jimmy open. The sendium bars
are gone.

Speaker 3 (04:18:34):
You sure look for yourself, so she's clean.

Speaker 8 (04:18:37):
I see.

Speaker 3 (04:18:39):
There's only one answer left if something or somebody out
in those ruins trying to get us. Maybe that lost
race decided they weren't going to stay lost.

Speaker 24 (04:18:48):
You think some of them may may still be alive.

Speaker 3 (04:18:50):
Who else could have blown up our ship? Take your
blaster up house and be careful. It's a hair trigger
for a week. Doing back at the television machine, Captain
I thought, we're looking at the lifeboats.

Speaker 51 (04:19:08):
We are.

Speaker 3 (04:19:09):
Whoever up the ship must be around here. Might as
well try to use a machine to track them down.
Yeah yeah, catch him with their own gadget. Huh, that's right,
All right, Howl, you're the expert. Get up there and
try to find him.

Speaker 24 (04:19:22):
It works.

Speaker 3 (04:19:24):
Well trying captain. How they been messed.

Speaker 24 (04:19:28):
I don't understand that it reached all the way to
earth before I saw my father in Detroit, Mary.

Speaker 35 (04:19:35):
My papers all rumbled again.

Speaker 24 (04:19:37):
There it is again, my father in Detroit.

Speaker 33 (04:19:40):
I've told him time and time again.

Speaker 8 (04:19:43):
I don't like a messy paper.

Speaker 24 (04:19:45):
Look at that, No select to control you? All the
way to the earth.

Speaker 97 (04:19:49):
You can see the whole room, the goldfish balled, the
anima castles on the chairs.

Speaker 24 (04:19:54):
Yet we can't pick up something less than a mile away.

Speaker 3 (04:19:56):
Knock it off. How wasting time? Come on, i'd gradu.

Speaker 73 (04:20:01):
You wan't work.

Speaker 3 (04:20:02):
We'll have to comb these rooms inch by inch.

Speaker 24 (04:20:05):
Do me that?

Speaker 3 (04:20:07):
Do I cut behind the hood here and go on, Briggs,
you take the lead with the radiation ticker. You might
be able to pick up a reading on where the
rocket fuel is hidden. Nicer, all right, let's go. I
can't understand why that machine can.

Speaker 5 (04:20:21):
Pick up.

Speaker 3 (04:20:23):
Captain Briggs.

Speaker 21 (04:20:23):
What is it? Captain, help, I'm falling.

Speaker 3 (04:20:25):
It's a caven. Hang on, Briggs, I'm slipping. Captain grab
his restaurant knolls.

Speaker 24 (04:20:34):
What happened was just walking along on the ground caved in.
What it's some kind of chef. Hold your light over it, Captain.

Speaker 3 (04:20:41):
Oh, fifty feet deep in a stone bottom, I could
have split my head open like a grape.

Speaker 24 (04:20:48):
First, something down there that lights steady, mace.

Speaker 97 (04:20:56):
Mace looks like a pile of bones to me, two
piles maybe the first skeletal remains ever found, the Lost Race.

Speaker 24 (04:21:04):
I've got to get down in there.

Speaker 3 (04:21:05):
We haven't got time.

Speaker 97 (04:21:06):
How come on, let me have your binoculars. Wonderful That
small skeleton must be an infant. They've been laid out carefully.
The burial chamber where they lying it is probably a
mother and infant. Yeah, the tail, she's definitely anthropoid. How
you you mean apes something like that? Yet they had

(04:21:29):
atomic power and built cities across the galaxy. Amazing, How
we haven't got time. Oh, that's funny. The little one
is different, the the caudal bones are different.

Speaker 3 (04:21:40):
No tail, listen, how what do I care? Where they had?
Tails are not come on? It's almost as if.

Speaker 97 (04:21:45):
Well they did have atomics and radiation does funny things
to a reddity. They had that problem mutations in Detroit, Detroit.

Speaker 24 (04:21:56):
That must be it?

Speaker 97 (04:21:57):
What the new atomics planet Detroit. They tore down my
father's house to.

Speaker 33 (04:22:01):
Make room for it.

Speaker 3 (04:22:01):
Quickly, Captain, Oh, where you going back to the machine.

Speaker 97 (04:22:05):
I've got a theory that may solve the whole mystery
of what happened to the lost Grace.

Speaker 3 (04:22:08):
I don't care what happened to that. That one's how
I want to find a living ones who wrecked my ship.
I think this machine may give us both answers. There's
a house Detroit, down to the last detail. I'll come
on down.

Speaker 73 (04:22:24):
We know what.

Speaker 35 (04:22:24):
Don't you understand?

Speaker 24 (04:22:25):
That house was torn down.

Speaker 3 (04:22:27):
I got a letter before we lift it off Earth.
It's gone, but it's on the television.

Speaker 24 (04:22:31):
Happened? That machine isn't television.

Speaker 97 (04:22:33):
It's a thought projector what It only mirrors what's in.

Speaker 8 (04:22:36):
Your own mind.

Speaker 3 (04:22:36):
But mister Howell, we saw earth that was really there,
but it was.

Speaker 97 (04:22:39):
Just because we imagined it breaks. It's a thought projection.
I can produce any metal image that occurs to me
on this machine. New York spaceport, a Spaceguard patrol, anything.

Speaker 29 (04:22:50):
Anything, Yes, And now I think I know what inspired
the Lost Race.

Speaker 24 (04:22:55):
To do what they did.

Speaker 25 (04:22:57):
It was fear.

Speaker 97 (04:22:58):
Fear of what was in their own mind mines. They
could all see it with machines like this, but fear
of what they foresaw the future. So they destroyed themselves,
every last one of them all it How are you
sure they're all dead?

Speaker 24 (04:23:15):
One hundred thousand years ago?

Speaker 3 (04:23:17):
Then? Who blew up the ship and stole our life?

Speaker 24 (04:23:19):
Both? Danton?

Speaker 3 (04:23:21):
Danton? But why?

Speaker 24 (04:23:22):
It was pathologically jealous, yes, but blowing.

Speaker 3 (04:23:24):
Up the ship was like committing suicide. He wasn't crazy
enough to do that.

Speaker 24 (04:23:27):
The Last Race was after they looked at this machine.

Speaker 3 (04:23:30):
You mean Dampton did too.

Speaker 24 (04:23:32):
We found his wrench.

Speaker 3 (04:23:34):
You're right.

Speaker 97 (04:23:35):
He must have looked at the machine and thought it
was television. He must have seen all his fears about
losing his girl confirmed. That was enough to make him
completely unbalanced. But he was with Kelly when that explosion
went off. He's got an iron clad alum.

Speaker 3 (04:23:47):
Oh he hasn't. Wouldn't take a power man long to
sneak back the ship and rigid delayed action. Fuse howel,
We've got to get back the ship before Dampton. But fanton.

Speaker 83 (04:24:01):
Stop your gun got a blaster set at white angles drop.
I've been following you. Whatn't I wanted to tell you?
I'm going back to Earth. I got the lifeboat hidding
over that ride.

Speaker 3 (04:24:13):
It won't work in deep space.

Speaker 21 (04:24:16):
You believe me when I told you?

Speaker 24 (04:24:17):
That?

Speaker 13 (04:24:17):
Didn't you?

Speaker 83 (04:24:18):
Well, I've got it fixed, and without for thundium fuel,
it'll be a milk run. I reached the Space Guard
stationed at VAULTA with a long, sad story about how
the rest of you exploded in mid space.

Speaker 3 (04:24:30):
Damn much murder.

Speaker 83 (04:24:31):
Yeah, yeah, that's just one of is and easy too, Daniel.
You can't just leave us here.

Speaker 21 (04:24:35):
Watch me sit in front of that machine and watch me. Yeah,
I know what it is. I know it's a television
without a transmitter. And I did some checking up. I've
seen how you were stealing my.

Speaker 83 (04:24:46):
Calls, trying to steal my girl, standing your sick. You
had lost race. They built some machine and it showed
me plenty, showed me enough to kill you.

Speaker 3 (04:24:55):
Oh you've got it all wrong. This isn't a television machine.
Why are you trying to pull what night saw it.
Those were your own forts, Dampton. Those things you saw
exist only in your mind.

Speaker 21 (04:25:06):
That before I plussed all you died. You're just trying
to lie out of it.

Speaker 24 (04:25:09):
That's all.

Speaker 21 (04:25:10):
Write out the truth when I say it, and you're
gonna die.

Speaker 97 (04:25:13):
All right, Danton, But you're not going to get away
with it.

Speaker 13 (04:25:16):
Look at the machine.

Speaker 21 (04:25:19):
What that the machine?

Speaker 24 (04:25:20):
It's the Spaceguard patrol, dan And look they're coming.

Speaker 3 (04:25:24):
X three to command spot at the coreas reported, preparing
to land.

Speaker 24 (04:25:29):
That's the Spaceguard Danton.

Speaker 3 (04:25:31):
Yeah, whole patrol line, your line.

Speaker 21 (04:25:32):
They couldn't gun. There wasn't any s OS.

Speaker 3 (04:25:35):
X three command preparing to land.

Speaker 21 (04:25:38):
There's a clearing.

Speaker 25 (04:25:39):
That's enough.

Speaker 3 (04:25:39):
How all right, Dampton, they'll be coming over the horizon.
Drop your gun and give yourself up there.

Speaker 21 (04:25:46):
Well then I got to catch me.

Speaker 83 (04:25:47):
Pup you away in that life. But before they land,
best sell all you stay where you are. I had
got your coming to look out.

Speaker 3 (04:25:52):
Behind you, burial chef you felling hold the light gun,
brigs Well, he dead dead Other than the lost race,
And what about those Space Guard cruisers.

Speaker 24 (04:26:12):
Out of my head?

Speaker 97 (04:26:14):
Just imagine them there they were on the machine would
Danton believed they were real.

Speaker 3 (04:26:19):
I wish they were real so we could get off
this planet. And it doesn't matter. We know where the
lifeboard is. Now we can send one man to bring
back help and it won't be damping.

Speaker 98 (04:26:30):
The machine got him the same way it got the
Lost Race through fear. But what was the Lost Race
afraid of? How changing changing? Look at those skeletons down there.
They had atomic energy, but they couldn't control it. Look,
the baby is different from the other. The race was

(04:26:53):
changing by mutation, mutations. Look at those skeletons.

Speaker 97 (04:26:58):
Now, imagine a shifted hip sockets so they could walk upright.

Speaker 24 (04:27:03):
The baby was already without a tear.

Speaker 3 (04:27:05):
But how that would mean they were changing into into it?

Speaker 97 (04:27:11):
Yes, Captain, the last Race committed suicide rather than face
the fear of seeing their descendants become such horrible creatures
as men.

Speaker 75 (04:27:39):
You have just heard another adventure into the unknown world
of the future, the world of the imagine.

Speaker 68 (04:27:51):
And now about next week. William Travis and his wife
thought they had escaped. That they were wrong. They were
being searched out by men from another world, men who
wanted them to return where I'll tell you next week.

Speaker 75 (04:28:12):
The Night's drama was based on the Murray Leinster story
of the Lost and was adapted for radio by Ernest Cannoy,
pictured in The Chaws from Matt Crowley as Captain Wharton,
Roger Di Coven as Hall, and Joseph Julian as Datam.

Speaker 89 (04:28:24):
Your host was Norman Rose, the Strange doctor weird.

Speaker 34 (04:28:42):
Good evening.

Speaker 5 (04:28:44):
Come in, won't you.

Speaker 24 (04:28:47):
Boy?

Speaker 5 (04:28:47):
What's the matter? You seem a bit nervous.

Speaker 81 (04:28:50):
Perhaps the cemetery outside these houses upset you. But these
things were was some cemeteries. For instance, a criminal with
murder in his heart, as in my story tonight, which
I call Picture of a Killer.

Speaker 5 (04:29:16):
My story Picture of.

Speaker 81 (04:29:17):
A Killer begins in the business district of a large city.
Two men, Duke Fasten and Lefty Williams, are driving slowly
along one of the main streets. Both men are tense, watchful.
Suddenly Duke speaks, slow.

Speaker 13 (04:29:32):
Down, left me. I see a parking spot right near
the bank. Okay, Duke, but.

Speaker 17 (04:29:41):
I say, I still don't like this job.

Speaker 13 (04:29:42):
Start for him with you. We can't miss a look.

Speaker 82 (04:29:47):
Just keep them motor running for a fast getaway. I'll
take care of the rest. Okay, Duke.

Speaker 24 (04:29:51):
Good luck.

Speaker 13 (04:29:56):
Your taking nobody. I wouldn't I take a nice picture.
I don't want my picture taken. Never I had a
picture taken in my life. I'm not starting now, and
I'll beat it here here man, maybe some other time,

pardon me, but have you got a match?

teach you.

Speaker 53 (04:30:37):

Speaker 86 (04:30:38):
Stop talking and get going, Duke, How long we're going to.

Speaker 13 (04:30:50):

Speaker 20 (04:30:51):
It's done, though.

Speaker 13 (04:30:52):
Let's sta'm out of town.

Speaker 82 (04:30:53):

Speaker 99 (04:31:16):
Oh no, you're both under arrest for the attempted murder
of that payroll clerk this.

Speaker 13 (04:31:20):
Morning, attended by this. Yeah, by a miracle, the guy's
still alive.

Speaker 5 (04:31:23):
And look o'harah.

Speaker 13 (04:31:24):
We got witnesses.

Speaker 82 (04:31:25):
They'll testify we were nowhere near the place where that
year old clerk got his Yeah, we get an alibi.
You can't break, I can't.

Speaker 62 (04:31:31):
Huh.

Speaker 82 (04:31:32):
Take a look at this photograph, duke, looks a picture
you're plucking a payroll Click.

Speaker 13 (04:31:38):
Yes, Still, the camera doesn't lie.

Speaker 99 (04:31:40):
Street photographer George Parker's's name snapped this picture just as
you shot payroll clerk. And unless I miss my guess,
this picture's gonna send you up the river for a long,
long stretch.

Speaker 5 (04:31:55):
Doctor weird.

Speaker 28 (04:31:56):
Don't you ever leave this dreary house and visit your friends?

Speaker 81 (04:31:59):
And when I do, I always dress meticulously. My pocket
revolver is nicely polished. I carefully shop in my sword canes,
and as for my bulletproof.

Speaker 100 (04:32:11):
Bisenough Doctor, I can see you dread and style, but
I think the men in our audience are interested in
a little different kind of style, the kind you get
in Adam hats, fashioned in distinctive shapes in a variety
of brisk looking shades.

Speaker 5 (04:32:24):
Adam hats are the sort of hats people admire.

Speaker 28 (04:32:27):
And that's why so many famous radio, stage and screen
personalities who need to look their best every moment of
the day and evening choose Adam.

Speaker 5 (04:32:35):
They know they'll be able to choose from a full.

Speaker 28 (04:32:38):
Selection of correctly styled hats at Adam hat stores. Follow
their discriminating example. Stop in at your nearest Adam hat
store or authorized dealer. There are thousands coast to coast
and look over the current line of smartly fashioned Adam hats.
Prices three forty five to ten dollars. Now back to
our story in the Doctor weird style, and.

Speaker 81 (04:33:03):
Now I'll continue my story picture of a killer. Duke
Fasten and Lefty Williams, their ella by broken by the
picture that George Parker, a photographer, and snapped at the
scene of the crime. Was sentenced to twenty years for
the attempted murder of the pale clerk five years back,
five years in which Duke's hatred for George Parker grew

(04:33:27):
in something that was almost insanity. Then one day, while
they were at work in the prison yard, Duke hunted
up his pal left him and said, in a low tense.

Speaker 82 (04:33:38):
Voice, everything is so settlerly. Well, I'm going to hear
them and my night. Once we get over the wall,
we'll be a car wake for us. You know, we'll
find a couple of rods and clothes and some dough.

Speaker 13 (04:33:48):
That's great, Duke.

Speaker 8 (04:33:50):
Then we'll head from Mexico.

Speaker 13 (04:33:51):
Yeah, we'll head from Mexico. But first there's someone we.

Speaker 20 (04:33:53):
Got a call on.

Speaker 13 (04:33:54):
Who's that?

Speaker 37 (04:33:55):
A guy that put us here, George Parker. If it
hadn't been for him and his camera, Yeah, so help me.
If it's the last thing I do, I'm gonna get
that guy. I'll teach him to take pictures of me.

Speaker 13 (04:34:16):
Duke. Listen.

Speaker 82 (04:34:17):
Then cups are tearing this down a part to finance.
As long as we stick to this by kill, they
won't support us. Just another block to that picture shop
at Parker owns two. We can't afford to wait time
on Parker. Come on, let's get back to the car
and head for Mexico. We aren't going any place until
I've taken care of Parker.

Speaker 13 (04:34:31):
Do you hear so? Five years that we have to
get eaten with him? And nothing that's gonna stop the car.

Speaker 40 (04:34:36):
Listen to I hate pocket as much as you do,
but this a of time you're not Come off. I'm
going back to where we left the car and I'm
heading for Mexican. It's not healthy to talk like that.
Let me you know what happens to Guy's across me up? Now,

picture before?

Speaker 76 (04:35:58):
I haven't.

Speaker 13 (04:35:58):
Yeah, don't you remember me? No, I'm sorry, but I
don't know.

Speaker 5 (04:36:02):

Wait a minute, what would you mind letting go of
that bulb?

Speaker 5 (04:36:09):
That's it?

Speaker 13 (04:36:10):
You're sure you haven't taken a picture yet? No, No,
I was just about doing me the work. That's fine.
I'll step away from that camera bit. That's it. I
don't understand. Is anything wrong? No, no, everything's fine. Just
as I changed my mind. I don't want my pitch
to tell you you don't want to take it.

Speaker 18 (04:36:29):
Nah.

Speaker 13 (04:36:30):
The one you took me five years ago was the
first I ever had taken.

Speaker 82 (04:36:33):
It's going to be the last one I took five
years ago. Yeah, you're a street photographer. Then you took
it outside the Third National Bank while I was sticking
up the payroll. You fine, Yeah, didn't recognize me, did you?
Five years behind bars? Changes in my Andonut, don't I

Speaker 13 (04:36:52):
What are you going to do? What do you think
hadn't been for you in that camera yours? It never
got me. I've never gone up the river. No, don't, please,
please please? Why I awake up?

Speaker 82 (04:37:02):
Myself and I left the night, dreaming at this moment,
the moment when my finger was tightened on the trigger
of a gun.

Speaker 81 (04:37:19):
Duke first and smile on his lists, got up, stepped
over George Parker's body, and quickly walked out of the shop.
A few minutes later, Duke suddenly stopped a block away.
The police were swarming around his getaway car, cursing his x.
Duke currently retreated. As dawn approached, he broke into an

(04:37:41):
empty house, where he decided to hide and rest into
the troop. Be dark again and exhausted, he had little
trouble falling asleep.

Speaker 13 (04:37:54):
Come on, Duke, wake up? Wait what's wrong?

Speaker 34 (04:38:02):
But oh haarrah yeah, o haarah.

Speaker 13 (04:38:06):
Don't try anything, Duke, we got you covered. Schwart that
is Gune. I haven't got one that's right of herr.
He hasn't. But he's smart, you duke, getting rid of
that gun. I don't know what you're talking to about.
You don't huh.

Speaker 99 (04:38:17):
No, I suppose you're gonna tell me that you didn't
murder George Parker.

Speaker 13 (04:38:20):
No, I didn't.

Speaker 82 (04:38:22):
You can't prove I did, but I can, Duke, who
do you think you're kidding? I suppose you go with this, Yes, Duke,
I have take a look at this photograph.

Speaker 13 (04:38:33):
No, no, that that can't be what.

Speaker 25 (04:38:37):
It is, Duke.

Speaker 99 (04:38:38):
It's a picture taking of you as your shot and
kill George Parker. There wasn't anybody there to take my picture.

Speaker 13 (04:38:43):
Parker and I were alone. Here was no place near
the camera. He couldn't have taken He didn't take the picture, Duke,
Death took it.

Speaker 3 (04:38:52):
Death took it.

Speaker 13 (04:38:53):
What are you talking about.

Speaker 99 (04:38:54):
You fired four shots at Parker, Duke, your hand must
have been shaking, you hated him so much. One of
the bullets went wild and hit the shutter mechanism of
the camera, causing a picture of a snap just as
you were committing murder.

Speaker 13 (04:39:07):
You mean one of those slugs hit the camera, made
it take my picture?

Speaker 99 (04:39:12):
Yes too, And you're going to find that it was
the most expensive picture ever taken of anybody, because this
picture is going to cost.

Speaker 17 (04:39:20):
You your life.

Speaker 25 (04:39:33):
And sure enough O'Hara was right.

Speaker 81 (04:39:36):
Or six months later, Duke Carston was hanged for the
murder of George Parker, her crime he could never have
been convicted of if it hadn't been for Exhibit A,
A photograph snapped at the scene of the crime by
a stray bullet. A bullet the Duke briton himself with fire.
Oh well, they say that justice is a strange way

(04:39:59):
of working in while it's certainly seem.

Speaker 5 (04:40:02):
So in Duke's case. Now I remember another case.

Speaker 81 (04:40:06):

prayers you're dropping on you again soon.

That's the worst thing that ever happened to me.

Speaker 11 (04:46:36):
Well, so you couldn't help it.

Speaker 50 (04:46:37):
It wasn't your fault.

Speaker 4 (04:46:39):
It was I was coming over a party, playing the
fool up.

Speaker 62 (04:46:44):
I didn't mean it.

Speaker 4 (04:46:45):
I didn't intend to kill anybody. I try to turn out.

Speaker 22 (04:46:51):
That's my fault, all right, or what they did.

Speaker 5 (04:46:54):
I don't know.

Speaker 22 (04:46:57):
Jail for years, that's things we worked for and play
for all these years. Just come down the drain, oh, Jimmy,
but it doesn't seem right. And then I give it
that police station. I'm sat see but I'm not going
you mean not not go to the police.

Speaker 4 (04:47:16):
But you look, I can't help with butcher. How the
big promise state one over there?

Speaker 22 (04:47:23):
Okay, if we get out of here now that don't

Speaker 4 (04:47:28):
Give if they do find you, I've got to place.

Speaker 50 (04:47:31):
It's a car.

Speaker 62 (04:47:40):
Mm hmm.

Speaker 22 (04:48:05):
O, what a hangover. I'll give me some more coffee
peas loosens. Jim you know I've been thinking you have
We should have gone to the pause.

Speaker 2 (04:48:14):
I don't start that now.

Speaker 62 (04:48:16):
It's too late.

Speaker 50 (04:48:17):
But then you have ways of finding things out. They'll
goll be.

Speaker 5 (04:48:20):
Watching all the gether.

Speaker 50 (04:48:21):
You think I hadn't thought of it.

Speaker 22 (04:48:23):
The car's a blue standway to learn out. It's like
every other blue stamdway to loun on the road. I'm
going to buy another one, just the same. I can't
afford it, and then change the number of plates and hey,
pressure and the other.

Speaker 50 (04:48:35):
Car has I mean, I mean the damage work.

Speaker 22 (04:48:38):
That's lucky. I'm a mechanically minded I can stip it
for stairs and then and then dump. You know, Jim,
we're becoming criminal.

Speaker 21 (04:48:44):
What do you want me to do?

Speaker 50 (04:48:45):
The charge of murder?

Speaker 2 (04:48:47):
No, of course, it's not excited to hit that cop
on purpose.

Speaker 4 (04:48:50):
Nothing I ran away. I mean the life has charge
to be comperable homicide.

Speaker 50 (04:48:55):
Good lawyer.

Speaker 22 (04:48:56):
If I told the dad I lost my head up,
I might.

Speaker 74 (04:48:58):
Get off for a few years.

Speaker 13 (04:49:00):
Khm.

Speaker 4 (04:49:01):
That's in the I understand.

Speaker 22 (04:49:03):
I'm not giving myself up.

Speaker 5 (04:49:05):
Now you wait here.

Speaker 22 (04:49:06):
I'm going to take a day off from the office
and buy a.

Speaker 4 (04:49:08):
New car for cash on the other side of.

Speaker 22 (04:49:10):
The town, the big city. I'll never catch me now,
they haven't got a hope.

Speaker 13 (04:49:17):
M hm, oh.

Speaker 32 (04:49:49):
Er, I had, Jim, what happened?

Speaker 24 (04:49:52):
Car?

Speaker 22 (04:49:53):
We're safe, same mate, same year, same model. You have
the same amount of milage on the pinometer, what with
than a few hundred?

Speaker 11 (04:50:00):
Oh, Jim, that's wonderful, and you're sure we're faith Of
course we're safe.

Speaker 4 (04:50:04):
I'll just run a new car into the guards and
change the plate over.

Speaker 22 (04:50:07):
Now, Jim, you must always drive cafe and you can't
worry about it. What do you think having on the
way home, I was behaving myself like a good boy
when coming along with the stretch of a road where
you know where it happened. I had a motorbike behind me.
I didn't think much of it that I didn't even
look in the mirror, and then the siren began. I

(04:50:28):
was going.

Speaker 50 (04:50:29):
I knew it was all too aggressively too.

Speaker 11 (04:50:31):
Did he did he catch you in a new car?

Speaker 22 (04:50:32):
And hope?

Speaker 2 (04:50:34):
I don't think he was even after me because he
must have turned off somewhere.

Speaker 11 (04:50:36):
That's a coincidence, But there isn't any way he could
turn off on that stretch of road. There only the
tree on.

Speaker 50 (04:50:42):
One side and Miller's farm beyond on the other.

Speaker 12 (04:50:45):
Side of the brickfield.

Speaker 22 (04:50:46):
Well, you must have found something. A motorist the charge
or better will turn around. It was a weird coincidence at.

Speaker 50 (04:50:53):
All, approximately one hundred yards go back, Yes, new paragraph.

(04:51:14):
The motorcycle.

Speaker 74 (04:51:17):
Appears to have.

Speaker 2 (04:51:18):
Swerved towards the car.

Speaker 50 (04:51:22):
And struck first with the near side handlebars.

Speaker 5 (04:51:31):
Full stop.

Speaker 50 (04:51:32):
The faces of blue paint on the hand grip and
the tanks of the cycle.

Speaker 74 (04:51:42):
Yes, the small quantity of paint.

Speaker 50 (04:51:49):
Collected car sent to the forensic laboratories poor technic. The
paint formula indicate that appears to have come from a
standway car about two years old. Sign inspect aff.

Speaker 74 (04:52:15):
Station got it.

Speaker 50 (04:52:20):
Yes, we will find out who killed Paul Old Tanner.

Speaker 5 (04:52:23):
Is the last thing we do.

Speaker 50 (04:52:24):
I'm drunken fool coming home from a party. That's my guess,
had an excellent Tanner and didn't have the gut to
report it. And it's a bad business.

Speaker 5 (04:52:32):
And it is.

Speaker 22 (04:52:33):
It's a bad, dirty business.

Speaker 50 (04:52:35):
Now, the driver of that blust tanne will be too
scared to come forward. Do you think we can get himself?
He must live in this section of town beyond Miller's father.
You can tell that from the direction of which he
was traveling now out of town. Car would use that road.
So what we need is patience, and plenty of it.
I'll go to every house of necessary in the meantime

(04:52:57):
that killers suffering comfortable. He's a scared man, not to
cook an ordinary sort of fellow.

Speaker 5 (04:53:05):
I said you one thing.

Speaker 50 (04:53:06):
I wouldn't have his conference for all the tea in China.

Speaker 4 (04:53:22):
Certainly home.

Speaker 5 (04:53:23):
Now this is.

Speaker 22 (04:53:26):
Anything thought, But I was wondering that the taste to use,
because it's a forget.

Speaker 5 (04:53:32):
All that monsters.

Speaker 2 (04:53:33):
Oh look, there have thousands of stamways to lose on
their own. Half of them are blue.

Speaker 22 (04:53:39):
Yeah, got a bit of mechanicalsabilities.

Speaker 2 (04:53:41):
I have even changed the engine over.

Speaker 50 (04:53:43):
Let's say, check the chaffie.

Speaker 2 (04:53:44):
I've always say the houses there. I wish there was
another way where could come home.

Speaker 50 (04:53:49):
I hate traveling over this next bit of road.

Speaker 2 (04:53:51):
You have to come home this way to forget it.
Who could crying out of spilt milk. If I could
have helped the bloke, Okay, I have helped him.

Speaker 87 (04:53:58):
But I couldn't with this that it happened just long,
here's long here, that's fair, let's watch ye, that's trance.

Speaker 22 (04:54:12):
I can't see anything behind to you.

Speaker 30 (04:54:13):
But there's nothing new, nothing.

Speaker 50 (04:54:15):
At all but the sorry that that copp not be somewhere.

Speaker 5 (04:54:20):
He's treading on a skill. It quite quiet. There isn't
any sirence, but I swear there isn't.

Speaker 50 (04:54:36):
Get three fives. Get the fas.

Is it his imagination?

Speaker 5 (04:55:41):
Is it his conscience?

Speaker 74 (04:55:44):
He seems convinced.

Speaker 50 (04:55:46):
He said, I heard it atulity, I heard the vins.

Speaker 22 (04:55:55):
That was just your imagination.

Speaker 5 (04:55:57):
Had that.

Speaker 4 (04:55:58):
I heard the fire, and I makes sense.

Speaker 11 (04:56:01):
For the ghost of a motorfly is only your imaginations.

Speaker 22 (04:56:04):
You We've got to move. Oh, there's a bit of
cash on the house, but not too much. I think
it's haunting you or whatever it did, it only happens
on that one stretch of the road.

Speaker 13 (04:56:14):
I don't want to move away from here too.

Speaker 22 (04:56:16):
We've got to. Every time I go along that road,
I have a fire a coastal conscience, but I hear.

skid marks and clat sudden near a set of tire
princes as he stopped breaking a Tropolis tired on the
near side front and almost ball tired on the off
side front. Yes, and a pair of Mica Kings of
the two rare wheels. Now you and I are going
around the district east of here looking at Stanway cars.

(04:57:05):
We're looking for scratches or new paintwork, and especially where
he'd have changed them. Maybe we can sell the dealers
to find out who swapped a new Metropolis tire on
a standway for an old.

Speaker 22 (04:57:18):
Tire and if a note was taken of the number.

Speaker 74 (04:57:20):
That's an idea.

Speaker 50 (04:57:22):
We'll try to get talking with the owners of Stanway
cars and what them and their families. Someone's going to
give something away to hats even by the manner we're
going to watch will a giveaway look and expression anything.
I don't know, but the break must come. You are
determined to find the light an. Yes, Tanner had a
wife and kids. He was a good cop and that's

(04:57:42):
