Speaker 6 (04:26):
And the police. So what did he do, Miss Wesley?
Delivered this vase to you and then die right here
in your apartment.
Speaker 3 (04:41):
I guess he didn't expect a Faraday.
Speaker 7 (04:42):
I was gonna call a doctor.
Speaker 3 (04:43):
But it was too late.
Speaker 2 (04:44):
I'm not blaming you for this, Mary, but I wish
you hadn't liked that vase of the orction or what's the.
Speaker 6 (04:48):
Vase got to do with this?
Speaker 2 (04:49):
Blame everything, Paraday.
Speaker 6 (04:51):
That funny looking piece of clay on the table there, Now,
you don't know what you're talking about.
Speaker 3 (04:55):
It is not funny.
Speaker 2 (04:56):
Look, it's so right. Mary's beginning to look rather gruesome.
And what it means to the man in the green hat,
I don't know what man and what green hat. I
bought this phase at an auction this morning, Paraday. A
man in a green hat fit against me until I
went too high. Yeah, about an hour ago he came
to my apartment and frantically pulled a gun on me
because I wouldn't sell it to him.
Speaker 6 (05:17):
Are you trying to kid me?
Speaker 2 (05:19):
Paraday? That guy had murder in his eyes when I
told him he couldn't have this vase for any price.
Speaker 3 (05:24):
He must have had murdering him. He killed a messenger boy.
Speaker 2 (05:28):
Yes, I'm pretty sure he didn't. Mary. Just after he left,
the messenger came to my door. Green hat must have
seen him followed him taken a shot on him, but
the messenger managed to make it here, so green Hat
didn't get the vase.
Speaker 6 (05:41):
Vick, You mean to tell me a guy would kill
for that, that funny looking piece of junk.
Speaker 2 (05:46):
The looks of a piece of pottery may be only
clay deep Faraday. Maybe it's a valuable vase antique, one
of those Ming Dynasty things worth thousands of dollars. Uh.
Speaker 6 (05:56):
What's a Ming Dynasty thing?
Speaker 2 (05:59):
Something that's old and valuable. And if I expect to
live to be old and valuable, I think i'd better
find out what the vase is worth. You're an expert
on part of in mister Danny. Could you tell my
looking in a vase, how much is worth or not?
Speaker 6 (06:20):
To the dollar Blackie, but I could say whether or
not it was valuable.
Speaker 2 (06:24):
Unwrapped the vase, Friday, mister Danny, have a look at.
Speaker 3 (06:27):
It, Okay, be careful, in secure, that's mine, remember, Yeah,
and you can have it, Miss Weresley, Yeah, blinking thanks.
Speaker 2 (06:35):
How much did you pay for these blady? Sixty dollars
in an auction? Sixty dollars? Don't tell me I fell
into a bargain, mister Danny.
Speaker 6 (06:43):
It must be worth plenty. I can't commit it, murder for.
Speaker 4 (06:45):
It, murder expect I can't understand why this is a cheap,
factory made vase. There's even imperfection in the design. I
would say it was not worth more than two dollars.
Speaker 3 (07:06):
Where we're going Blackie?
Speaker 2 (07:08):
Well, Mary, if this vase is worth only two dollars,
then the man in the green hat. Isn't that for
the phase itself? But what's inside it?
Speaker 3 (07:15):
Oh?
Speaker 6 (07:15):
What could be inside it?
Speaker 2 (07:17):
A lot of things? Friday baked right into the clay.
Speaker 6 (07:20):
Well, we could break it and see.
Speaker 3 (07:22):
Oh no, you don't at my vase, and I like
it the way it is in one key.
Speaker 2 (07:26):
Don't worry, Mary, we don't have to break it to
look inside it. That's why we're taking it to an
X ray lab. We're gonna find out what's inside this vase.
It would make a man in the green hat sea
red ocky. Here's the X ray picture of your vase.
(07:48):
Oh thanks, doctor, Come on Friday, he's gonna have to
look at it too.
Speaker 6 (07:51):
Oh Bet, I can well look Blackie.
Speaker 3 (07:55):
Thanks?
Speaker 6 (07:56):
Well, what do you see the the outline of a vase?
Speaker 3 (08:04):
Yes, there's nothing new.
Speaker 2 (08:05):
This means there's nothing in it, Doctor, other thing, Blackie,
it's just a plain vase made of plain clay.
Speaker 6 (08:11):
Well, maybe this picture doesn't show what's really in it.
It shows there's nothing in it, Inspector, and pictures don't lie,
I say this one does. Let's break the vase. That's
the best way of saying what you know.
Speaker 3 (08:21):
You don't inspect. That's my base and.
Speaker 6 (08:23):
I like, well, I don't like it. It's the cause
of a man being killed, and I'm gonna break it.
Speaker 2 (08:28):
Fturday, don't be anything. Just give me, give it to
a party.
Speaker 6 (08:32):
Oh all right, tank it, miss West, go fast. It's
heavy enough. I thought you didn't want it broken, Miss
Whistley Dolly, I would drop it.
Speaker 2 (08:44):
Oh fine, gentlemen, Mary, let's look at the pieces and
see what's in them. Look at the.
Speaker 6 (08:49):
Pieces, Blackie, and prove to inspect her.
Speaker 2 (08:51):
Faraday, My picture didn't lie. I think this will convince them. Doctor,
Look at those pieces. Friday is none bigger than a dime.
Speaker 3 (08:58):
My beautiful vase, Your.
Speaker 6 (09:00):
Beautiful vase, was your beautiful phase, Miss Worthy, is a
beautiful mess, and this beautiful mess. Inspector poses a beautiful question.
If there's nothing in this phase, why did the man
in the green hat. Kill that messenger. It's fifty one
(09:26):
Sunset Broadway. Faraday, this is what I can read, Blankie.
This is where you get out, get off and get going.
Speaker 2 (09:32):
Not just what was the meaning of that?
Speaker 6 (09:34):
I mean, I think you're holding out on me. You
took something out of that base, something the guy in
the green hat.
Speaker 2 (09:40):
Watered, Paraday. There was nothing in it to take out.
Speaker 6 (09:44):
Now that's what you say. Wow, come on, tell me
the truth. Won't mean you've done anything wrong. After all,
you bought the vase. Uh, that gave you a right
to uh whatever was in it.
Speaker 2 (09:56):
Well, thanks for that much, Faraday. I'm telling you the truth.
There was nothing in that phase when I bought it.
There was nothing in it when I well, when it broke,
you saw not yourself. Now I'm taking the broken pieces
to headquarters. They haven't looked at just the same. You're
wasting your time, Friday, with the pieces of that vase
and with me. Wanna come up to my apartment with me?
Speaker 4 (10:17):
Now I'm going back to headquarters and see how we're
doing on finding the guy in the green hat.
Speaker 6 (10:22):
Okay, I close that car door, will the oh.
Speaker 2 (10:26):
Shure there, Friday, I've closed something for you. Now. I'll
see if you can close something for yourself. The case
of the man and the green hat. Find out about
the man in the green hat, it will be a
feather in your cap. Uh home sweet, oh.
Speaker 6 (10:55):
Moh black, unless you look good.
Speaker 2 (10:57):
And let well. So it's the green hat again? That
man under it again? Is that phase? That's oh, it's
a it's all over. It's broken. You'll lie. I don't
lie very well, mister, not at all with a gun
pointing at me. I told you it's broken.
Speaker 6 (11:10):
I could kill you for that.
Speaker 2 (11:11):
Yes, I suppose you could. You already killed one person
to get that phase.
Speaker 6 (11:14):
What if I did? The vase is important to me.
Speaker 2 (11:17):
You killed that messenger boy.
Speaker 6 (11:18):
Yes, and I'm gonna kill you right now.
Speaker 4 (11:19):
And let you give me that da tell me where it.
Speaker 2 (11:21):
Is if you want so. Intent, I'm keeping your eyes
on me. You'd see the phase you're looking for over
in the corner of air.
Speaker 4 (11:27):
Which corner?
Speaker 6 (11:28):
Were there?
Speaker 2 (11:29):
Or rather here as a chin pal? Oh, no, I'll
put that gun of you. It isn't my pocket. You
can't be trusted with it. There there's no phase in
the corner there, No, Well, there isn't a brain in
your head either or you'd know the trick I just
pulled on you is the oldest in the book.
Speaker 4 (11:48):
Okay, what happens now?
Speaker 2 (11:50):
I happen I have to call police headquarters, and then
you'll happen to be taken to a nice clean cell.
Speaker 6 (12:04):
And now back to.
Speaker 4 (12:05):
Boston, Blackie. Blackie and Mary Wesley by a vase and
an oction. Later, a man in a green hat who
bit against them comes to Blackie and tries to get
the vase from him, but Blackie.
Speaker 6 (12:22):
Refuses to give it to him and sends.
Speaker 4 (12:24):
The vase to Mary's by messenger. A messenger shot and killed.
Investigation proves the vase of no value and nothing is
found inside it, but obviously the man in the green
hat has thought it worth his while to killed for it. Unable, however,
to find out anything about the vase or the man
in the green hat, Blackie returned to his apartment, where
(12:46):
he confronts the strange man a second time. In a fight,
Blackie overpowers him and calls for Faraday. As we return
to our story, Paraday has just arise.
Speaker 2 (12:58):
Okay, Friday, the man in the green hat, come on, now,
how do I know this?
Speaker 6 (13:03):
His theme man and the green.
Speaker 2 (13:04):
Hat because I say so, he pulled a gun on me?
Speaker 6 (13:07):
Oh off, like it not that since one of you
started to get excited about somebody pulling a gun on you.
Speaker 2 (13:13):
I don't actually care about that, Friday. But this guy
confess to me that he killed that messenger, so.
Speaker 4 (13:18):
That right, Messter the guy's work, he inspector, he probably
killed that messenger himself.
Speaker 6 (13:23):
And Blacket, what kind of a sample you're trying to
make out of me?
Speaker 2 (13:25):
Any guys you prefer you can't figure out a way
to get this guy down aheadquarter him?
Speaker 6 (13:28):
Well? To get him down there, I have to hold
him for something, and once he done wrong that you
can pull alright, Friday.
Speaker 2 (13:34):
If you can't arrest him for what he confess to
me or for pulling a gun on me, then arrest
him for carrying and conceal a weapon. I never carried
a gun. D Oh no, you might search him and
see why of all it?
Speaker 6 (13:48):
Now I'm getting out of here.
Speaker 2 (13:50):
Search him, Paraday, just to want so polight me?
Speaker 4 (13:53):
Yeah, it's like to go ahead, search me and maybe
this guy will keep his mouth.
Speaker 6 (13:56):
Yet it's a good idea. Find anything, you know, I'm
not gonna fight. Hey, what's this.
Speaker 2 (14:05):
Looks like his gun inspectatory. I didn't have that on
me a minute ago. What you're doing there, don't you?
I put it on you where it belonged, and now
you're going to jail where you belong.
Speaker 6 (14:26):
I got it blanking. We took finger prints of the
man on the green Halt and found a match for
them here in our files.
Speaker 2 (14:32):
Oh swell, who was he?
Speaker 6 (14:33):
Uh?
Speaker 2 (14:34):
Frank Kittridge Kifridge?
Speaker 6 (14:36):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (14:37):
Any you know I have part of the answer to
this already.
Speaker 6 (14:41):
Eh.
Speaker 2 (14:42):
The vase I bought once belonged to a Nancy Kippridge. Yeah,
she died last week, killed in an auto accident. Could
be this. Frank Kiffridge is her husband or brother?
Speaker 6 (14:51):
So what the vase were still worthless?
Speaker 2 (14:54):
Blanking?
Speaker 6 (14:55):
And Tippridge still killed that messenger in trying to get it.
Speaker 2 (14:58):
Well, look who was Frank kitt What had he done
to get his prince in your flow?
Speaker 6 (15:02):
Robbed a bank six years ago? He was let out
of jail just the day before yesterday.
Speaker 2 (15:07):
World, Now we're getting somewhere Friday. He robbed a bank.
I ever recover the money, not a time of it.
This is getting almost simple. Kittridge wanted that phase because
it had something to do with the whereabouts that's stolen money?
Speaker 6 (15:19):
Why what could that phase have had to do with it? It
was empty and there was nothing buried in that clay.
Speaker 2 (15:23):
I know. The thing is Kittridge thought it had something
to do with the money. We know that phase didn't.
But there may be another phase.
Speaker 6 (15:31):
Well then why wasn't Kittridge after the other one?
Speaker 2 (15:33):
Because for the same reason he he he thought that, uh,
that he wanted the one we had. Look, how long
are you gonna hold Kittridge.
Speaker 6 (15:42):
We're gonna arraign him in a couple of hours. Uh,
you'll have to testify against him.
Speaker 2 (15:47):
Okay, I'll be back in an hour. Where are you
going back to where this all began? Friday? An auction
is there must have been another phase in the effects
of manatory Kittridge. That's the one bank Kittridge wanted and
the one I'm gonna yet. Yes, I auctioned off all
(16:10):
Nancy Kittridge's property. Just sold the last piece this afternoon,
Blackie Buller, Missus Smith, do you remember the phase I
bought this morning? Yes, I think I do. There must
have been another phase and the stuff of her as
you walk it off, there has to be another one.
Now I'm mistaken, Blackie. There was no other phase. I'm sorry, yeah, sorry,
(16:30):
you don't know how sorry I am.
Speaker 6 (16:41):
Next case, Frank Kittridge charged would carry a concealed weapon.
Speaker 2 (16:45):
How do you plead Gitridge? Not? We prefer judges inspector.
Speaker 6 (16:49):
Well, Boston, Blankie.
Speaker 2 (16:50):
Boston, Blackie, come forward, please, I right here. R you
judge this man with carrying concealed weapon? No you no,
I do not.
Speaker 6 (16:58):
Oh, it's the matter with you, Blankie. You told me
that he can't pull a gun on you.
Speaker 2 (17:01):
Sorry, and there is no joke. You can go okay,
b alright Wright.
Speaker 6 (17:05):
Wait, I'm gonna Chris dismissed. Next case, Blankie, you you
double crassy? What's the idea?
Speaker 2 (17:12):
A good one? Paraday. I'll tell you all about it later.
Oh ah, Mary, this is Blackie.
Speaker 5 (17:31):
Oh black have another boat?
Speaker 2 (17:33):
No, but I'm convinced there is another one, and I'm
letting Kickford lead me to it.
Speaker 5 (17:38):
Ah.
Speaker 2 (17:38):
Well, I got him out of that charge of carrying
a concealed weapon. And that guy's not dumb. He did
just what I thought he'd do. He's come right to
the auctioneers. How do you know that I trailed him
as far as the auctioneer's building. He's upstairs with the
auctioneer now, and I'm down here in the lobby of
the building in a phone booth. How can lock in
the corner if the colts for the good one car
of yours, all he can do is tell him the
(17:59):
same thing. So then Kitridge is gonna go look for it.
Speaker 3 (18:04):
Oh, I'm gonna look, gonna curl him.
Speaker 2 (18:06):
Oh, here he comes. Now, I'll call you lay to Mary.

Good heaven the police too well than did you find
anything in that second phase?
Speaker 2 (20:46):
Yes, Faraday? This little cylinder and inside it guess what

Speaker 7 (21:12):
No? No?
Speaker 6 (21:13):
Yeah, that means he didn't know what was here.
Speaker 2 (21:14):

and where he is too, where at Mary's. He still
doesn't believe my story? Come on, he killed a messenger.
He tried to kill me, and he may try to

Speaker 6 (21:32):
Look, miss Wesley stopped lying to me.
Speaker 4 (21:34):
You got that phase and I know it.
Speaker 3 (21:36):
Please how many more times do I?
Speaker 6 (21:38):

Speaker 4 (21:41):
I want that phase.
Speaker 3 (21:42):
I don't have it on it. I don't the police

Speaker 3 (21:58):
I've never been so happy anybody in all my life.
Speaker 2 (22:00):
The shocks Mary for nothing, for nothing or any well
remember me?
Speaker 3 (22:16):
Well, hello glasses, we gonna break any more vases today?
Speaker 2 (22:20):
No, Mary, In fact, I've brought you another one to
replace the one you brought what now make him in?
Speaker 3 (22:25):
Well, of course you made, but you didn't have to
farne in another.
Speaker 2 (22:28):
I wanted to out.
Speaker 3 (22:31):
You know, I still don't know what this is all about.
How did that storage receipt get into that vase in
the first place?
Speaker 2 (22:37):
Well, Mary, Frank Frank Kittridge robbed a bank and knew
he was going to jail for it, so he put
the money in storage, gave his wife's these storage receipt.
Speaker 3 (22:46):
And then she put it in the clay. She was
making the base.
Speaker 2 (22:48):
Huh yeah, and according to Frank's confession this afternoon he
watched her do it too.
Speaker 3 (22:52):
But Darling, she made them any vases in the pottery
after it was baked, how would she know which one
held a receipt?
Speaker 2 (22:58):
She made a slight error in the design, then bought
it from the pottery yourself.
Speaker 3 (23:03):
Well, yes, but weren't there two vases just to like?
Speaker 2 (23:06):
Yes, there was, and that's what caused all Frank's trouble.
If he went to jail. His sister decided to double
cross him. She made another vase just like the first one,
gave the real one to her sister, and kept the
phone him for Frank to have when he get goot back.
Speaker 3 (23:20):
But didn't she think that Frank would know she'd tricked
him when he didn't find the storage reeat in that vase.
Speaker 2 (23:24):
She was gonna pretend someone else had made a mistake
in the design, just like hers. He have to believe
her because he saw her put the receipt in the
clay before she made the vase.
Speaker 3 (23:34):
Oh, I see, and she was gonna use the selling
money herself.
Speaker 2 (23:37):
Yeah, someday when she felt she needed it. She might've
taken an out of story so as Frank went to jail,
but she was afraid it was too hot. Well, here's
the vase I have brought you to replace the one
you broke. Don't you wanna see him?
Speaker 3 (23:48):
I certainly do. Uh any can reculently?

but I need blacking.
Speaker 6 (04:26):
And the police. So what did he do, Miss Wesley?
Delivered this vase to you and then die right here
in your apartment.
Speaker 3 (04:41):
I guess he didn't expect a Faraday.
Speaker 7 (04:42):
I was gonna call a doctor.
Speaker 3 (04:43):
But it was too late.
Speaker 2 (04:44):
I'm not blaming you for this, Mary, but I wish
you hadn't liked that vase of the orction or what's the.
Speaker 6 (04:48):
Vase got to do with this?
Speaker 2 (04:49):
Blame everything, Paraday.
Speaker 6 (04:51):
That funny looking piece of clay on the table there, Now,
you don't know what you're talking about.
Speaker 3 (04:55):
It is not funny.
Speaker 2 (04:56):
Look, it's so right. Mary's beginning to look rather gruesome.
And what it means to the man in the green hat,
I don't know what man and what green hat. I
bought this phase at an auction this morning, Paraday. A
man in a green hat fit against me until I
went too high. Yeah, about an hour ago he came
to my apartment and frantically pulled a gun on me
because I wouldn't sell it to him.
Speaker 6 (05:17):
Are you trying to kid me?
Speaker 2 (05:19):
Paraday? That guy had murder in his eyes when I
told him he couldn't have this vase for any price.
Speaker 3 (05:24):
He must have had murdering him. He killed a messenger boy.
Speaker 2 (05:28):
Yes, I'm pretty sure he didn't. Mary. Just after he left,
the messenger came to my door. Green hat must have
seen him followed him taken a shot on him, but
the messenger managed to make it here, so green Hat
didn't get the vase.
Speaker 6 (05:41):
Vick, You mean to tell me a guy would kill
for that, that funny looking piece of junk.
Speaker 2 (05:46):
The looks of a piece of pottery may be only
clay deep Faraday. Maybe it's a valuable vase antique, one
of those Ming Dynasty things worth thousands of dollars. Uh.
Speaker 6 (05:56):
What's a Ming Dynasty thing?
Speaker 2 (05:59):
Something that's old and valuable. And if I expect to
live to be old and valuable, I think i'd better
find out what the vase is worth. You're an expert
on part of in mister Danny. Could you tell my
looking in a vase, how much is worth or not?
Speaker 6 (06:20):
To the dollar Blackie, but I could say whether or
not it was valuable.
Speaker 2 (06:24):
Unwrapped the vase, Friday, mister Danny, have a look at.
Speaker 3 (06:27):
It, Okay, be careful, in secure, that's mine, remember, Yeah,
and you can have it, Miss Weresley, Yeah, blinking thanks.
Speaker 2 (06:35):
How much did you pay for these blady? Sixty dollars
in an auction? Sixty dollars? Don't tell me I fell
into a bargain, mister Danny.
Speaker 6 (06:43):
It must be worth plenty. I can't commit it, murder for.
Speaker 4 (06:45):
It, murder expect I can't understand why this is a cheap,
factory made vase. There's even imperfection in the design. I
would say it was not worth more than two dollars.
Speaker 3 (07:06):
Where we're going Blackie?
Speaker 2 (07:08):
Well, Mary, if this vase is worth only two dollars,
then the man in the green hat. Isn't that for
the phase itself? But what's inside it?
Speaker 3 (07:15):
Oh?
Speaker 6 (07:15):
What could be inside it?
Speaker 2 (07:17):
A lot of things? Friday baked right into the clay.
Speaker 6 (07:20):
Well, we could break it and see.
Speaker 3 (07:22):
Oh no, you don't at my vase, and I like
it the way it is in one key.
Speaker 2 (07:26):
Don't worry, Mary, we don't have to break it to
look inside it. That's why we're taking it to an
X ray lab. We're gonna find out what's inside this vase.
It would make a man in the green hat sea
red ocky. Here's the X ray picture of your vase.
(07:48):
Oh thanks, doctor, Come on Friday, he's gonna have to
look at it too.
Speaker 6 (07:51):
Oh Bet, I can well look Blackie.
Speaker 3 (07:55):
Thanks?
Speaker 6 (07:56):
Well, what do you see the the outline of a vase?
Speaker 3 (08:04):
Yes, there's nothing new.
Speaker 2 (08:05):
This means there's nothing in it, Doctor, other thing, Blackie,
it's just a plain vase made of plain clay.
Speaker 6 (08:11):
Well, maybe this picture doesn't show what's really in it.
It shows there's nothing in it, Inspector, and pictures don't lie,
I say this one does. Let's break the vase. That's
the best way of saying what you know.
Speaker 3 (08:21):
You don't inspect. That's my base and.
Speaker 6 (08:23):
I like, well, I don't like it. It's the cause
of a man being killed, and I'm gonna break it.
Speaker 2 (08:28):
Fturday, don't be anything. Just give me, give it to
a party.
Speaker 6 (08:32):
Oh all right, tank it, miss West, go fast. It's
heavy enough. I thought you didn't want it broken, Miss
Whistley Dolly, I would drop it.
Speaker 2 (08:44):
Oh fine, gentlemen, Mary, let's look at the pieces and
see what's in them. Look at the.
Speaker 6 (08:49):
Pieces, Blackie, and prove to inspect her.
Speaker 2 (08:51):
Faraday, My picture didn't lie. I think this will convince them. Doctor,
Look at those pieces. Friday is none bigger than a dime.
Speaker 3 (08:58):
My beautiful vase, Your.
Speaker 6 (09:00):
Beautiful vase, was your beautiful phase, Miss Worthy, is a
beautiful mess, and this beautiful mess. Inspector poses a beautiful question.
If there's nothing in this phase, why did the man
in the green hat. Kill that messenger. It's fifty one
(09:26):
Sunset Broadway. Faraday, this is what I can read, Blankie.
This is where you get out, get off and get going.
Speaker 2 (09:32):
Not just what was the meaning of that?
Speaker 6 (09:34):
I mean, I think you're holding out on me. You
took something out of that base, something the guy in
the green hat.
Speaker 2 (09:40):
Watered, Paraday. There was nothing in it to take out.
Speaker 6 (09:44):
Now that's what you say. Wow, come on, tell me
the truth. Won't mean you've done anything wrong. After all,
you bought the vase. Uh, that gave you a right
to uh whatever was in it.
Speaker 2 (09:56):
Well, thanks for that much, Faraday. I'm telling you the truth.
There was nothing in that phase when I bought it.
There was nothing in it when I well, when it broke,
you saw not yourself. Now I'm taking the broken pieces
to headquarters. They haven't looked at just the same. You're
wasting your time, Friday, with the pieces of that vase
and with me. Wanna come up to my apartment with me?
Speaker 4 (10:17):
Now I'm going back to headquarters and see how we're
doing on finding the guy in the green hat.
Speaker 6 (10:22):
Okay, I close that car door, will the oh.
Speaker 2 (10:26):
Shure there, Friday, I've closed something for you. Now. I'll
see if you can close something for yourself. The case
of the man and the green hat. Find out about
the man in the green hat, it will be a
feather in your cap. Uh home sweet, oh.
Speaker 6 (10:55):
Moh black, unless you look good.
Speaker 2 (10:57):
And let well. So it's the green hat again? That
man under it again? Is that phase? That's oh, it's
a it's all over. It's broken. You'll lie. I don't
lie very well, mister, not at all with a gun
pointing at me. I told you it's broken.
Speaker 6 (11:10):
I could kill you for that.
Speaker 2 (11:11):
Yes, I suppose you could. You already killed one person
to get that phase.
Speaker 6 (11:14):
What if I did? The vase is important to me.
Speaker 2 (11:17):
You killed that messenger boy.
Speaker 6 (11:18):
Yes, and I'm gonna kill you right now.
Speaker 4 (11:19):
And let you give me that da tell me where it.
Speaker 2 (11:21):
Is if you want so. Intent, I'm keeping your eyes
on me. You'd see the phase you're looking for over
in the corner of air.
Speaker 4 (11:27):
Which corner?
Speaker 6 (11:28):
Were there?
Speaker 2 (11:29):
Or rather here as a chin pal? Oh, no, I'll
put that gun of you. It isn't my pocket. You
can't be trusted with it. There there's no phase in
the corner there, No, Well, there isn't a brain in
your head either or you'd know the trick I just
pulled on you is the oldest in the book.
Speaker 4 (11:48):
Okay, what happens now?
Speaker 2 (11:50):
I happen I have to call police headquarters, and then
you'll happen to be taken to a nice clean cell.
Speaker 6 (12:04):
And now back to.
Speaker 4 (12:05):
Boston, Blackie. Blackie and Mary Wesley by a vase and
an oction. Later, a man in a green hat who
bit against them comes to Blackie and tries to get
the vase from him, but Blackie.
Speaker 6 (12:22):
Refuses to give it to him and sends.
Speaker 4 (12:24):
The vase to Mary's by messenger. A messenger shot and killed.
Investigation proves the vase of no value and nothing is
found inside it, but obviously the man in the green
hat has thought it worth his while to killed for it. Unable, however,
to find out anything about the vase or the man
in the green hat, Blackie returned to his apartment, where
(12:46):
he confronts the strange man a second time. In a fight,
Blackie overpowers him and calls for Faraday. As we return
to our story, Paraday has just arise.
Speaker 2 (12:58):
Okay, Friday, the man in the green hat, come on, now,
how do I know this?
Speaker 6 (13:03):
His theme man and the green.
Speaker 2 (13:04):
Hat because I say so, he pulled a gun on me?
Speaker 6 (13:07):
Oh off, like it not that since one of you
started to get excited about somebody pulling a gun on you.
Speaker 2 (13:13):
I don't actually care about that, Friday. But this guy
confess to me that he killed that messenger, so.
Speaker 4 (13:18):
That right, Messter the guy's work, he inspector, he probably
killed that messenger himself.
Speaker 6 (13:23):
And Blacket, what kind of a sample you're trying to
make out of me?
Speaker 2 (13:25):
Any guys you prefer you can't figure out a way
to get this guy down aheadquarter him?
Speaker 6 (13:28):
Well? To get him down there, I have to hold
him for something, and once he done wrong that you
can pull alright, Friday.
Speaker 2 (13:34):
If you can't arrest him for what he confess to
me or for pulling a gun on me, then arrest
him for carrying and conceal a weapon. I never carried
a gun. D Oh no, you might search him and
see why of all it?
Speaker 6 (13:48):
Now I'm getting out of here.
Speaker 2 (13:50):
Search him, Paraday, just to want so polight me?
Speaker 4 (13:53):
Yeah, it's like to go ahead, search me and maybe
this guy will keep his mouth.
Speaker 6 (13:56):
Yet it's a good idea. Find anything, you know, I'm
not gonna fight. Hey, what's this.
Speaker 2 (14:05):
Looks like his gun inspectatory. I didn't have that on
me a minute ago. What you're doing there, don't you?
I put it on you where it belonged, and now
you're going to jail where you belong.
Speaker 6 (14:26):
I got it blanking. We took finger prints of the
man on the green Halt and found a match for
them here in our files.
Speaker 2 (14:32):
Oh swell, who was he?
Speaker 6 (14:33):
Uh?
Speaker 2 (14:34):
Frank Kittridge Kifridge?
Speaker 6 (14:36):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (14:37):
Any you know I have part of the answer to
this already.
Speaker 6 (14:41):
Eh.
Speaker 2 (14:42):
The vase I bought once belonged to a Nancy Kippridge. Yeah,
she died last week, killed in an auto accident. Could
be this. Frank Kiffridge is her husband or brother?
Speaker 6 (14:51):
So what the vase were still worthless?
Speaker 2 (14:54):
Blanking?
Speaker 6 (14:55):
And Tippridge still killed that messenger in trying to get it.
Speaker 2 (14:58):
Well, look who was Frank kitt What had he done
to get his prince in your flow?
Speaker 6 (15:02):
Robbed a bank six years ago? He was let out
of jail just the day before yesterday.
Speaker 2 (15:07):
World, Now we're getting somewhere Friday. He robbed a bank.
I ever recover the money, not a time of it.
This is getting almost simple. Kittridge wanted that phase because
it had something to do with the whereabouts that's stolen money?
Speaker 6 (15:19):
Why what could that phase have had to do with it? It
was empty and there was nothing buried in that clay.
Speaker 2 (15:23):
I know. The thing is Kittridge thought it had something
to do with the money. We know that phase didn't.
But there may be another phase.
Speaker 6 (15:31):
Well then why wasn't Kittridge after the other one?
Speaker 2 (15:33):
Because for the same reason he he he thought that, uh,
that he wanted the one we had. Look, how long
are you gonna hold Kittridge.
Speaker 6 (15:42):
We're gonna arraign him in a couple of hours. Uh,
you'll have to testify against him.
Speaker 2 (15:47):
Okay, I'll be back in an hour. Where are you
going back to where this all began? Friday? An auction
is there must have been another phase in the effects
of manatory Kittridge. That's the one bank Kittridge wanted and
the one I'm gonna yet. Yes, I auctioned off all
(16:10):
Nancy Kittridge's property. Just sold the last piece this afternoon,
Blackie Buller, Missus Smith, do you remember the phase I
bought this morning? Yes, I think I do. There must
have been another phase and the stuff of her as
you walk it off, there has to be another one.
Now I'm mistaken, Blackie. There was no other phase. I'm sorry, yeah, sorry,
(16:30):
you don't know how sorry I am.
Speaker 6 (16:41):
Next case, Frank Kittridge charged would carry a concealed weapon.
Speaker 2 (16:45):
How do you plead Gitridge? Not? We prefer judges inspector.
Speaker 6 (16:49):
Well, Boston, Blankie.
Speaker 2 (16:50):
Boston, Blackie, come forward, please, I right here. R you
judge this man with carrying concealed weapon? No you no,
I do not.
Speaker 6 (16:58):
Oh, it's the matter with you, Blankie. You told me
that he can't pull a gun on you.
Speaker 2 (17:01):
Sorry, and there is no joke. You can go okay,
b alright Wright.
Speaker 6 (17:05):
Wait, I'm gonna Chris dismissed. Next case, Blankie, you you
double crassy? What's the idea?
Speaker 2 (17:12):
A good one? Paraday. I'll tell you all about it later.
Oh ah, Mary, this is Blackie.
Speaker 5 (17:31):
Oh black have another boat?
Speaker 2 (17:33):
No, but I'm convinced there is another one, and I'm
letting Kickford lead me to it.
Speaker 5 (17:38):
Ah.
Speaker 2 (17:38):
Well, I got him out of that charge of carrying
a concealed weapon. And that guy's not dumb. He did
just what I thought he'd do. He's come right to
the auctioneers. How do you know that I trailed him
as far as the auctioneer's building. He's upstairs with the
auctioneer now, and I'm down here in the lobby of
the building in a phone booth. How can lock in
the corner if the colts for the good one car
of yours, all he can do is tell him the
(17:59):
same thing. So then Kitridge is gonna go look for it.
Speaker 3 (18:04):
Oh, I'm gonna look, gonna curl him.
Speaker 2 (18:06):
Oh, here he comes. Now, I'll call you lay to Mary.
Speaker 6 (18:11):
No, wait, Mary, he's.
Speaker 2 (18:12):
Getting into the phone booth next to mine.
Speaker 3 (18:15):
Do you ever hear what he says?
Speaker 2 (18:16):
I'm not interested in that, like in just can't as
clicks as he die. So I'll know what the number
is he's calling.

Speaker 3 (22:25):

farne in another.
Speaker 2 (22:28):
I wanted to out.
Speaker 3 (22:31):
You know, I still don't know what this is all about.
How did that storage receipt get into that vase in
the first place?
Speaker 2 (22:37):
Well, Mary, Frank Frank Kittridge robbed a bank and knew
he was going to jail for it, so he put
the money in storage, gave his wife's these storage receipt.
Speaker 3 (22:46):
And then she put it in the clay. She was
making the base.
Speaker 2 (22:48):
Huh yeah, and according to Frank's confession this afternoon he
watched her do it too.
Speaker 3 (22:52):
But Darling, she made them any vases in the pottery
after it was baked, how would she know which one
held a receipt?
Speaker 2 (22:58):
She made a slight error in the design, then bought
it from the pottery yourself.
Speaker 3 (23:03):
Well, yes, but weren't there two vases just to like?
Speaker 2 (23:06):
Yes, there was, and that's what caused all Frank's trouble.
If he went to jail. His sister decided to double
cross him. She made another vase just like the first one,
gave the real one to her sister, and kept the
phone him for Frank to have when he get goot back.
Speaker 3 (23:20):
But didn't she think that Frank would know she'd tricked
him when he didn't find the storage reeat in that vase.
Speaker 2 (23:24):
She was gonna pretend someone else had made a mistake
in the design, just like hers. He have to believe
her because he saw her put the receipt in the
clay before she made the vase.
Speaker 3 (23:34):
Oh, I see, and she was gonna use the selling
money herself.
Speaker 2 (23:37):
Yeah, someday when she felt she needed it. She might've
taken an out of story so as Frank went to jail,
but she was afraid it was too hot. Well, here's
the vase I have brought you to replace the one
you broke. Don't you wanna see him?
Speaker 3 (23:48):
I certainly do. Uh any can reculently?
