Manhattan are deserted save for a broad shouldered young man
named Al Compton who strolls down East eighty sixth Street
and heads for home. But unknown to mister Compton, he
has company. Twenty feet behind him is a tall, lean

You know that Daniels ain't no too bid up? I

I'm sorry. I never take rides with strangers.
Speaker 6 (02:21):
Look counting as far as I'm concerned, you can keep
on walking and Heaven bless you. But Daniels said, Eddie,

Oh friend, you must really enjoy your work.

Speaker 1 (02:52):

Speaker 2 (02:52):
No, no, no, no, I'll take care of it. You look
after our friend here just a second, I'm coming.
Speaker 4 (03:03):
Hello, Nick.
Speaker 1 (03:04):
What are you doing here? Claire?
Speaker 2 (03:06):
I thought I left you in Indianapolis, but.
Speaker 7 (03:08):
You are such an irresistible creature I had to follow you.
I want to talk to you.
Speaker 2 (03:13):
You'll have to pick another time. I'm all jammed out
with what.
Speaker 4 (03:17):
Well, well, what goes on under our little roof?
Speaker 2 (03:22):
None of your business?
Speaker 4 (03:23):
Now where you leave that handsome hunk of man on
the bed? Al Compton?
Speaker 1 (03:28):
Didn't I tell you to be? Did all right, darling?
Speaker 4 (03:31):
If you don't want me to stay?
Speaker 2 (03:32):
Ah holder, Claire, I changed my mind.
Speaker 4 (03:37):
I thought that was a woman for Rody.
Speaker 2 (03:40):
You wouldn't be thinking of going up to see his boss, Ken.
Speaker 1 (03:42):
Brady, would you?
Speaker 2 (03:44):
Would you mind very much? You don't want to jump
the conclusions, Claire. Mister Compton just dropped into chat. He
had a couple too many, and.
Speaker 7 (03:52):
He passed that hard stuff is awful, listess, especially when
you get.
Speaker 4 (03:56):
It from the end of a blackjack. Now listen, Claire, sure,
what's it worth to you?
Speaker 1 (04:02):
What's what worth?
Speaker 4 (04:03):
To me keeping my mouth shut.
Speaker 2 (04:07):
A thousand dollars. Oh no, I might be a mind baby.
If you don't want it, that's all right with me too.
Speaker 7 (04:13):
Yeah, don't be cheap, donn After all, in your bracket,
how much can you keep?
Speaker 1 (04:16):
I said, I'll give you a grand take it or
leave it.
Speaker 4 (04:18):
I'll take it, though I'd like to try to.
Speaker 1 (04:21):
You're gonna talk all night with that dame.
Speaker 2 (04:24):
Just a second, Eddie, listen, Claire, I want you to
take a little walk for a while.
Speaker 1 (04:28):
Come back in a couple of hours.
Speaker 2 (04:30):
Four thirty.
Speaker 1 (04:30):
All right, our five will be even.
Speaker 4 (04:33):
Better and you'll have that money ready.
Speaker 1 (04:36):
I said I would.
Speaker 2 (04:40):
Okay, Eddie, get them up here, come.
Speaker 6 (04:43):
On, come wake up, Let me alone. Man, you have
to go back to sleep after the boast.
Speaker 1 (04:50):
Hello Comton, Oh you Nick Daniels, an't you?
Speaker 2 (04:53):
That's right? I'm already sorry about this, fellow, but I
hadn't taught you. Now I've got a proposition for your Compton.
Speaker 1 (05:04):
I'm not interested.
Speaker 2 (05:05):
Want to cheer me on. I've been doing a little
checking up on you. They tell me you're Brady's fair
haired boy. Tweat you like his own son.
Speaker 1 (05:14):
So so I'm going to show you how to commercialize on.
Speaker 2 (05:17):
It now, I'd like to open up a couple of
gambling clubs around town.
Speaker 1 (05:22):
Are you're crazy? You think Brady would stand for it
while he's in the.
Speaker 2 (05:25):
Business, That's just it. He's not going to be in
business much longer. What do you mean we're going to
knock off his club regularly?
Speaker 1 (05:32):
What? Yes?
Speaker 2 (05:33):
And when his customers see the rough stuff that goes on,
I don't think they'll be flocking there anymore.
Speaker 1 (05:37):
Already in mind, Daniels, you don't think it'll work now.
Speaker 6 (05:40):
We got spots all over the place. It so, I'm
like a fortress. How are you going to get your
boys past the guards? That's where you come in.
Speaker 1 (05:48):
You think i'd sell out Brady after all he's done.
I think you'd sell out your own mother of the
price will ride. You can take your money.
Speaker 2 (05:55):
He's talking about money. There are other things in life
besides that, and that makes sense. Haven't heard of a
man named Sam Richards? No funny. I found a guy
in mobile who was wanting to identify he was the
lad who killed Richards in a fight over some girl.
That's a lie, seems this friend of mine was living
(06:15):
across the street and saw the whole thing from his window.
You're bluffing, do you think?
Speaker 1 (06:19):
So? What take a look at these pictures? Where did
you get him? Oh?
Speaker 2 (06:26):
I forgot to mention that this friend of mine is
a camera enthusiast, and he thought a picture of you
bending over the body might come in.
Speaker 6 (06:32):
But you're not frightening me. Daniel's Brady knows all about that, Messa.
Speaker 2 (06:35):
Yeah, but the comps don't. What do you say, Compton?
Do you cooperate.
Speaker 1 (06:43):
When when I get the pictures? Don't give him a thought.
I'll deliver right after you do. Sorry, Jude, you see
you see the spot on anither way. I'm a dead duck.
Speaker 8 (07:04):
What does this Nick Daniels have on you? It can't
be if you're totally across this.
Speaker 6 (07:09):
And Judy, I swear all this happened long before I
ever met you.
Speaker 8 (07:11):
And why can't you tell me what it is?
Speaker 2 (07:13):
I just can't. That's all.
Speaker 6 (07:14):
Just take my word for it that Daniels wasn't sounding
off by double cross him.
Speaker 2 (07:17):
It can mean my life.
Speaker 8 (07:19):
What are you gonna do?
Speaker 1 (07:20):
What can I do? When I came to New York,
I was a bum. Brady took a liking to me.
He gave me a job.
Speaker 8 (07:25):
You mean you're gonna tell him about Nick Daniel?
Speaker 1 (07:27):
Yes, No, you can't do that. Out you got a
better idea.
Speaker 8 (07:30):
Yes, why don't we leave town?
Speaker 6 (07:32):
How far do you think we'd get Daniels? Probably as
a boy now watching the hotel?
Speaker 8 (07:37):
Then why didn't you do what Daniels wants?
Speaker 4 (07:38):
Brady had never suspect.
Speaker 1 (07:39):
Would you forget it?
Speaker 8 (07:40):
If you really loved me, then don't say anything to
break Just get out of my way to Judie.
Speaker 1 (07:44):
No, I won't let you go out.
Speaker 4 (07:46):
You can't stop me.
Speaker 2 (07:48):
I can try l.
Speaker 5 (08:00):
No way.
Speaker 1 (08:03):
Nobody here.
Speaker 2 (08:07):
Yeah, let me talk to Mike wearing met here?
Speaker 1 (08:11):
What's thematic? Kids?
Speaker 2 (08:12):
Did I wake him? Oh that's a pretty ridiculous question.
Speaker 1 (08:15):
Corby, what do you want?
Speaker 9 (08:16):
That's no way to talk to a guy who's going
to do you a favor.
Speaker 2 (08:19):
Look such, I don't like guys doing me favorite at
three o'clock in the morning.
Speaker 9 (08:22):
Okay, Mike, if you don't want to meet her.
Speaker 1 (08:24):
What are you babbling about?
Speaker 9 (08:25):
I just picked up a little number who's out of
her mind to meet the fault and you interested. Nope,
she's blonde, five feet too. I said I wasn't here
here that would put venus to shame. Oh what's the
name Judy Waynwright?
Speaker 1 (08:40):
Never heard of her? You're well, she just killed al
Compton ken Brady's boy.
Speaker 9 (08:45):
That's right, she wants to hire you.
Speaker 1 (08:48):
Is that why you called me?
Speaker 2 (08:49):
Yeah, I'll tell miss Wayne Right.
Speaker 1 (08:51):
I'm not interested.
Speaker 9 (08:52):
Nah, you're being smart, Mike.
Speaker 1 (08:54):
What do you mean?
Speaker 9 (08:55):
Well, strictly between you and me and the guy who's
hiding under your racing form. This is old girl hasn't
got a prayer, not a chance. She's up the well
known creek without a paddle. I bet the jury won't
take twenty minutes to strap her into the chair. I
want to hear the story she tried to give us.
Speaker 2 (09:12):
No, never mind, Satan, you always follow up a story.
Tell miss Wayne Right. I will be able to hear
it myself.
Speaker 3 (09:34):
And now back to the adventures of the Falcon. An
hour has passed and Sergeant Corbett, acting at the behest
of Judy Wainwright, got in touch with Mike Wearing, and
now at a local jail, how the Falcon listens, Miss
Wainwright talks for herself.
Speaker 8 (09:52):
You've got to believe me, mister Wearing, I didn't.
Speaker 2 (09:54):
Kill all And now come you didn't see the murderer
because my back was to the door and you didn't
hear it open. No, how do you explain the gun
being found in the room.
Speaker 8 (10:04):
The killer must have thrown it in.
Speaker 1 (10:06):
How did your fingerprints get on it?
Speaker 8 (10:08):
I don't remember. I was so dazed, I probably picked
it up without thinking.
Speaker 2 (10:13):
And they weren't so dazed that you couldn't pack a
bag and head for the nearest bus line, where the.
Speaker 1 (10:17):
Cops grabbed you. I tell you I didn't know what
I was doing.
Speaker 2 (10:20):
You had a fight with Compton, didn't you?
Speaker 1 (10:22):
No?
Speaker 4 (10:22):
I was crazy about it.
Speaker 2 (10:24):
How come the people next door heard you arguing? Corbet
tells me they heard Compton say he was walking out
on you and you wouldn't let him go.
Speaker 4 (10:29):
That's a lie.
Speaker 2 (10:31):
Did you or didn't you say you were going to
stop him?
Speaker 4 (10:33):
What is this a third degree? Just what side are
you on, mister Waring?
Speaker 1 (10:37):
I haven't decided.
Speaker 5 (10:38):
Ye.
Speaker 1 (10:39):
Well, if that's the.
Speaker 8 (10:39):
Way you feel, I'll get someone else. Falcon's not the
only private detective in town.
Speaker 1 (10:44):
Okay, And Jew no hot feelings?
Speaker 8 (10:47):
He no, wait, mister worry, Yeah, I'll tell you anything
you want to know.
Speaker 5 (10:55):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (10:56):
I suppose we start with the last question.
Speaker 8 (10:58):
I asked, Well, Al and I were arguing, but it
wasn't over what you think Al worked for Ken Brady.
Speaker 1 (11:06):
You're not telling me anything.
Speaker 8 (11:07):
You Well, late last night a man came down with
a proposition either Al helped him ruin Brady's club.
Speaker 1 (11:15):
Or else or else what?
Speaker 4 (11:17):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (11:18):
It was blackmail of some sort. What was Compa's decision?
Speaker 8 (11:21):
He was going to tell Brady the whole story, even
though it meant it's like that's why I wouldn't let
him go.
Speaker 2 (11:27):
And would you know the name of the party who
tried to blackjack him into line?
Speaker 1 (11:31):
Yes? It was Nick Daniels, the gentleman from Indianapolis.
Speaker 4 (11:36):
I think, so.
Speaker 1 (11:37):
Do you know him?
Speaker 2 (11:39):
No, but I've always wanted to and this may be
my chance. Hey, Satan, I want out.
Speaker 4 (11:56):
Want me to get that Nick.
Speaker 7 (11:57):
Do you no trouble?
Speaker 1 (12:02):
Hello?
Speaker 4 (12:04):
Yes, just a minute, it is your Indianapolis call Nate.
The operator says she's ready with Wilson.
Speaker 2 (12:09):
Just tell him I won't need those strong arm men.
Speaker 4 (12:12):
I asked him for anything else.
Speaker 2 (12:15):
No, I'll just say I'll be back in a couple
of days. Fine, all right on, Claire, I'll take care
of him.
Speaker 4 (12:21):
Hello Wilson, Nick asked me to relation go to you.
Speaker 1 (12:24):
Yeah, hello Nick?
Speaker 2 (12:28):
Do I know you are not like you're going to
My name is Mike Waring. Oh the fucking what do
you want with me? I'm working for a girl named
Judy Wainwright.
Speaker 1 (12:40):
I don't believe I know her. She was engaged al Compton.
Speaker 2 (12:44):
Oh too bad.
Speaker 1 (12:45):
It was broken and you know he was murdered, And
sure I heard it on the radio.
Speaker 2 (12:51):
Sad, wasn't it as very? It doesn't strike you strange
that he should be knocked off right after you worked
on him to double cross Brady? Who told you that
little birdie? What's this little birdie's name? What difference does
that make? It's got a long tongue. Maybe somebody ought
to pull it out, Eddie, first game right.
Speaker 1 (13:15):
Get your hands off me? What are you doing to
get your hands off me? The first time you.
Speaker 5 (13:24):
Come on?
Speaker 2 (13:25):
I said, ragging up? Quit playing around? Eddie used to
sadn't he's got my arm? One of that case, I'll
guess I'll have to take a hand.
Speaker 1 (13:37):
You all right, Eddie feels like he tore it out
of it. Suck at the stop wearing wearing. He's out cold.
Give me that vase.
Speaker 4 (13:51):
You're not going to hit him with it?
Speaker 5 (13:52):
Will you?
Speaker 2 (13:52):
Shut up? Leapt his head up, Nnie, that's fine. Don't
tell the water wearing. Can you wonder?
Speaker 1 (14:05):
No suit yourself? Who told you about my deal without Compton?
That's none of your stop it.
Speaker 2 (14:13):
I told you to keep.
Speaker 1 (14:15):
Out of this clan.
Speaker 2 (14:17):
What amster wearing?
Speaker 1 (14:19):
He don't think?
Speaker 2 (14:19):
I'll tell you? Sure I do, but you're going to
be disappointed. Okay, Eddie, take off his shoes. Hey, what's
the idea. I'm going to show you how we make
it hot for guys like you back in Indianapolis?
Speaker 1 (14:32):
Wouldn't but watch and see you gonna match it in? Sure?
Speaker 5 (14:38):
No, Nick, Well he still ain't talking.
Speaker 1 (14:52):
What did you come out for?
Speaker 2 (14:53):
Go back in there with clan, work on it till
he does.
Speaker 6 (14:56):
So you see's out cold from the look. Said that
he will be for another three or four hours.
Speaker 2 (15:00):
It's fine.
Speaker 1 (15:01):
Now.
Speaker 2 (15:01):
Am I gonna find out who told him?
Speaker 1 (15:02):
I got the Compton? Maybe he just gisted?
Speaker 2 (15:05):
Nah, nah, No, you don't guess things like that, Eddie.
Somebody's been talking out of turn. Maybe it was clead maybe,
but again maybe it was you. What kind of a
crack is that class started to make a grand of
things have broken? Right, So take it anyway you like, all.
Speaker 6 (15:23):
Right, Nick, as long as you mentioned it, Where do
White stand in this deal? I told you that before,
before things were different, I was supposed to get five
percent of everything you made in New York. So so
right now, the best you can hope for us to
keep your health. If Brady ever hears of this stunt,
you won't live long enough to regret it.
Speaker 1 (15:39):
Where does that leave me? The same place it leaves me? Well,
not quite. You got dough? I haven't. That's tough, but
only on you. What's the idea of the gun? Eddie?
I want ten grand for my trouble? You heard me?
I haven't got it here, don't hear me that.
Speaker 2 (15:55):
I'll let you look at my wallet.
Speaker 1 (15:56):
I'm fresh out of course, we plenty to start operating.
Speaker 6 (15:58):
You've got plenty more in your safe, sure, but that's
down in the office. All right, Let's go to the office, okay.
Speaker 2 (16:04):
Man, When a fellow's got something coming to him, I'd
be the last one to stop him from getting it.
Speaker 1 (16:12):
Let me get my coat.
Speaker 7 (16:21):
Oh take it, easy, hand, son of your right?
Speaker 1 (16:26):
How are you.
Speaker 7 (16:27):
Cannot be very flattering, mister wedding. I was kind of
hoping you noticed me when you first came in.
Speaker 1 (16:33):
Oh I did?
Speaker 4 (16:34):
You had me worried for a minute.
Speaker 1 (16:36):
I thought I was slipping for And what time is it?
Speaker 4 (16:38):
A quarter of nine?
Speaker 1 (16:40):
I mean I've been alone here for almost three.
Speaker 4 (16:41):
Hours alone, honey, I've been keeping you company.
Speaker 1 (16:45):
Oh, how lucky me? What's your name, Claire? And what's
the rest of it?
Speaker 4 (16:51):
Aim? Miss Claire?
Speaker 1 (16:53):
Aim? Since when has it been? Miss? It wasn't so
long ago.
Speaker 2 (16:58):
You were wearing a wedding ring there?
Speaker 4 (17:00):
Who tells you that?
Speaker 2 (17:01):
Oh I'm clairvoyant? Besides, you still got a band of
white on your left hand. Oh yeah, I see how
simple it is?
Speaker 1 (17:09):
And who is a lucky man?
Speaker 4 (17:10):
What difference does it make?
Speaker 1 (17:12):
Because I've got a feeling it was Nick Daniels.
Speaker 4 (17:15):
How did you know that?
Speaker 1 (17:16):
Oh, just a hunch he was still married to the guy.
Speaker 7 (17:19):
Yeah, but don't give up, hope, Hanson. I don't think
it will least. I've been thinking of ringo for quite
a while.
Speaker 1 (17:27):
How would Nick like that? You wouldn't? How'd you get
into this mess? Anyway?
Speaker 4 (17:32):
They promised me a thousand dollars about help. I needed
the money.
Speaker 1 (17:37):
Did he and Eddie kill Al Compton? Use your head?
Speaker 4 (17:40):
What was that percentage? Compton was the boy?
Speaker 1 (17:43):
H are they now?
Speaker 4 (17:44):
They left about two hours ago for Nick's office?
Speaker 1 (17:48):
What do they do with my shoes?
Speaker 7 (17:49):
Don't be a fool wearing You can't hobble around in
your condition.
Speaker 1 (17:52):
He just lies. Still, I'll get a doctor.
Speaker 2 (17:54):
Uh, don't you bother? I live through it too bad.
I can't say as much for your husband. What's Nick's office?
Speaker 1 (18:09):
Claire?
Speaker 4 (18:09):
Last one down the hall?
Speaker 2 (18:11):
Uh?
Speaker 4 (18:11):
Look, Mike, what's your interest in this case?
Speaker 1 (18:13):
Isn't that obvious? I'm looking for our coffin's murderer?
Speaker 4 (18:16):
Why?
Speaker 2 (18:17):
Because I got a client named Judy Wainwright. The police
think did it?
Speaker 4 (18:21):
I see, yes, but that's where the league was.
Speaker 7 (18:25):
Huh that's how you knew that Nick approached Constance?
Speaker 1 (18:29):
Uh? Huh?
Speaker 4 (18:29):
And the police think that your client is guilty?
Speaker 1 (18:32):
Yep?
Speaker 4 (18:33):
What makes you so sure she isn't?
Speaker 1 (18:35):
Oh? I don't call it blind faith.
Speaker 4 (18:37):
I wish I could find someone to believe.
Speaker 1 (18:39):
In me that way, Well, maybe we could work out
a deal. It's the place, Yes, who's the Star Trading company?
Speaker 4 (18:48):
That's the name Nick is using in New York?
Speaker 1 (18:52):
Well, I guess there's nobody.
Speaker 4 (18:54):
That's the matter.
Speaker 1 (18:55):
I spoke too soon. The door is open, I twitch
I got it.
Speaker 2 (19:02):
Well, awfully careless of mister Nick Daniels leave his office
in this condition. Doesn't it strike he was being sloppy? No,
obviously we both can't be looking at the same thing.
And the first thing I noticed was that open closet.
And the next thing I saw that's who it is, Claire.
Speaker 7 (19:20):
What's wrong with him?
Speaker 2 (19:23):
Just to mention one thing, he's dead.
Speaker 1 (19:26):
Hand me the phone, Agel, I got to call the police.
Speaker 9 (19:37):
Here saying Sergeant Carpet speaking, Oh, Corbett is wearing Wow,
I've been keeping yourself ran your client's been asking for you.
Speaker 2 (19:45):
I did tell miss Wayne right, he's got nothing to
worry about. I'll be down in five minutes with the
proof that she didn't kill Compton.
Speaker 1 (19:50):
What do you call proof? I just found Eddie Nichols's body.
Say that again.
Speaker 2 (19:56):
I just found Eddie nichols body. Nick Daniels, boy, someone
let them have a butcher knife right in the back.
Where did you find him in Nick's office?
Speaker 9 (20:04):
How do you figure that? Clere's Miss Waynwright.
Speaker 2 (20:06):
I'll explain it all when I see you sageant, but
it stands the reason the same party who killed al
Compton killed Eddie.
Speaker 9 (20:12):
I still don't see how that gives the caroling out.
Speaker 2 (20:14):
Oh, come off, But what's wrong with you, Corbett? That
he's been dead for less than an hour and for
the last five you've had my client in the lock
and key. I guess again.
Speaker 9 (20:22):
Miss Wainwright raised ten grand worth of bail at seven
o'clock tonight. That was three hours ago. You're joking if
you think so, will you hear the payoff? The guy
who put up the doll is a gentleman named Nick Daniels.
Speaker 2 (20:34):
Ain't bad enough to kill you. Now, back to the
Adventures of the Folcon.
Speaker 3 (20:58):
Power has passed since Mike Wearing was leave the news
that Judy Wainwright's bail was furnished by Nick Daniels, and
now with the gorgeous Missus Daniels in tow, the Falcon
tries to locate the good fads.
Speaker 1 (21:09):
Listen, Claire, I'm not sure Daniels wouldn't go any place.
Speaker 2 (21:12):
For this apartment? Well?
Speaker 1 (21:14):
Is he the here of his office? But the doorman said
he hasn't been back since he left me.
Speaker 4 (21:19):
Yes, obviously he knew where. Well, I guess the only
thing to do.
Speaker 5 (21:25):
Is to.
Speaker 1 (21:27):
Didn't wait, that seems like a smart idea.
Speaker 4 (21:31):
I want to drake.
Speaker 7 (21:33):
When here's to what we both want?
Speaker 1 (21:42):
Wait a minute, then, does Nick have a hotel suitet anywhere?
Speaker 4 (21:46):
Not that I know of?
Speaker 1 (21:47):
Where could he have taken Judy?
Speaker 4 (21:48):
Why are you so worried about her?
Speaker 2 (21:50):
You don't know how important that little lady is my
scheme of things?
Speaker 4 (21:53):
Do you think she killed Compton?
Speaker 7 (21:55):
Eddy?
Speaker 1 (21:57):
Judy? Where's Nick?
Speaker 5 (21:59):
Right by?
Speaker 2 (22:00):
So trying to be funny?
Speaker 1 (22:02):
You know what will happen? Why don't you want to
fear you out? Judy?
Speaker 8 (22:05):
God?
Speaker 4 (22:05):
You send him?
Speaker 2 (22:06):
You forgive me for using your name?
Speaker 1 (22:08):
Friend? How did you find out about her?
Speaker 2 (22:10):
I'm a gambler wearing I play hunches. This one paid
off right on the nose.
Speaker 1 (22:15):
Speaking of hunches, Nick, I've got a honey of my own.
Speaker 2 (22:18):
Yeah, yeah, I've got a feeling that one of the
things you're not expecting is this. Get that's not nice, Nick,
not come on, drop it, cut it on, get breaking
my arm and I'm gonna start.
Speaker 1 (22:31):
On your neck.
Speaker 4 (22:34):
Stop it.
Speaker 1 (22:34):
Call me Claire, You'll kill him.
Speaker 2 (22:36):
That's the general idea. Come on, Nick, get up, Let
him be Mike.
Speaker 7 (22:40):
He didn't kill Al Compton? No, No, how would he
know Compton was going.
Speaker 4 (22:43):
To double cross him? And tell Brady? I tell you
Nick had no motive.
Speaker 2 (22:46):
Who said he did what? I never claimed he had
a motive? Player, I just don't like this guy in
general principles.
Speaker 4 (22:51):
I don't get you.
Speaker 1 (22:53):
I'll see if this is any better.
Speaker 2 (22:54):
You killed Al Compton?
Speaker 1 (22:56):
Crazy. What's more, you killed Eddie.
Speaker 2 (22:57):
Nichols when he stumbled on the truth. I don't struggle, Angel,
now that I finished with mister Daniel, that just as
soon started as missus.
Speaker 1 (23:15):
So it was.
Speaker 8 (23:16):
Claire who was the villain of the piece.
Speaker 4 (23:18):
But why did she kill Al?
Speaker 8 (23:20):
She had nothing against him?
Speaker 2 (23:22):
Well that's what made this almost a perfect crime, Judy.
She had no motive, but her husband.
Speaker 1 (23:27):
Did you know?
Speaker 8 (23:27):
It was a frame?
Speaker 1 (23:28):
That's right, Angel, You.
Speaker 2 (23:30):
See, if Claire played ball with her husband or she
stood the game was one thousand dollars. But if Nick
went to the chair for the murder of Al and Eddie,
then as his widow she.
Speaker 8 (23:39):
Stood to come into a fortune.
Speaker 1 (23:40):
No, you've got it.
Speaker 2 (23:42):
While I was out cold, she followed Eddie and her
husband at the office, where she let Eddie heave it,
And you mean.
Speaker 8 (23:47):
To tell me Nick just stood by and did nothing.
Speaker 2 (23:51):
What was your reaction when you saw Al die that record?
Speaker 1 (23:55):
You were a little on the bewilders side.
Speaker 8 (23:57):
Yes, that's true.
Speaker 1 (23:59):
Why the same thing happened? Nick?
Speaker 8 (24:00):
But didn't Claire say she was with you while Eddie
and Nick were gone?
Speaker 2 (24:04):
Well? What could you expect her to do?
Speaker 1 (24:05):
Break down? Confessed after that going over, I got I
was in.
Speaker 2 (24:09):
No condition to tell whether or not she was lying.
Speaker 8 (24:12):
You'll find it hard to believe she was in that
hotel room while I was arguing with Al.
Speaker 1 (24:16):
Why you also worked up?
Speaker 2 (24:18):
You didn't notice the door open?
Speaker 3 (24:19):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (24:19):
Now, admit it, you're guessing. No, No, she had to
be in that room, Judy.
Speaker 2 (24:25):
You see she knew something she never could have known otherwise.
But Al was planning to double cross Nick by telling
his boss the whole story.
Speaker 1 (24:32):
Now Nick didn't know that.
Speaker 2 (24:33):
The only reason he was giving up the scheme of
breaking Brady was that with Al dead, it didn't stand
a chance of working.
Speaker 1 (24:39):
Sounds a clear m I see good.
Speaker 8 (24:42):
I only wish there was some way I could pay
you for all you've done?
Speaker 2 (24:45):
Oh there is?
Speaker 1 (24:46):
How Well? I don't think this is the proper time
to go in to that. Why not?
Speaker 2 (24:51):
A private detective liked to keep his fees strictly between
him and his client, and I could a feeling while
being overheard wait were alone
Hello.
Speaker 2 (00:08):
Yes, it's the Falcon speaking. Oh Louise, I'm glad to
call aight you like to call me out?
Speaker 1 (00:15):
Tonight?
Speaker 2 (00:16):
Angel, some boy and all things committing murder. It's a
sure way to make a fortune. And unless I can
convince him otherwise, he's going to make a stab at it.
Speaker 3 (00:29):
This is Jack Costello, friends, inviting you listen to the
Adventures of the Falcon. Sorrying less dabn. You met the
Falcon first and his best selling novels. Then you saw
him in his thrilling motion picture series. Now join him
on the air. When the Falcon solves the Case of
the Mighty Muscle and now the Case of the Mighty
(01:05):
Muscle rin. It's early Sunday morning and the streets of
Manhattan are deserted save for a broad shouldered young man
named Al Compton who strolls down East eighty sixth Street
and heads for home. But unknown to mister Compton, he
has company. Twenty feet behind him is a tall, lean
(01:26):
gent who matches him step for step, and only after
Compton has gone two blocks is he aware of his shadows.
Speaker 1 (01:33):
All right, friend, what's the idea speaking the me?
Speaker 4 (01:37):
Yes?
Speaker 1 (01:37):
Why it's hailing me daily? Why should I want to
do a thing like that.
Speaker 2 (01:42):
That's what I want to know.
Speaker 1 (01:43):
You're imagining things content, ma'am. And how come you know
my name?
Speaker 5 (01:47):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (01:48):
Well, you're a celebrity.
Speaker 6 (01:49):
Everybody knows Ken Brady and the fellow he's groom and
the follow in his footsteps.
Speaker 1 (01:53):
Why it's one of the.
Speaker 6 (01:54):
Big success stories of who do you think you're a kidding? Okay, Compton,
I'll put it to You're going right home. Why friend
of mine wants to talk to you? Oh, Nick Daniels.
Speaker 1 (02:06):
What does Daniels want with me? Oh? Then you've put
the boys maybe, And.
Speaker 6 (02:11):
You know that Daniels ain't no too bid up? I
know its territory is Indianapolis. What's he doing in New York?
That's what he wants to talk to you about. I
got a car around the corner.
Speaker 1 (02:18):
I'm sorry. I never take rides with strangers.
Speaker 6 (02:21):
Look counting as far as I'm concerned, you can keep
on walking and Heaven bless you. But Daniels said, Eddie,
you bring Compton the myplace, so you see the position
that puts me.
Speaker 1 (02:29):
That's sure tough luck.
Speaker 2 (02:31):
Oh friend, you must really enjoy your work.
Speaker 1 (02:45):
Want you hit him work? Nick?
Speaker 2 (02:48):
I heard him. It could be the cop now, Braddy
wouldn't miss him this past?
Speaker 1 (02:52):
You want me?
Speaker 2 (02:52):
No, no, no, no, I'll take care of it. You look
after our friend here just a second, I'm coming.
Speaker 4 (03:03):
Hello, Nick.
Speaker 1 (03:04):
What are you doing here? Claire?
Speaker 2 (03:06):
I thought I left you in Indianapolis, but.
Speaker 7 (03:08):
You are such an irresistible creature I had to follow you.
I want to talk to you.
Speaker 2 (03:13):
You'll have to pick another time. I'm all jammed out
with what.
Speaker 4 (03:17):
Well, well, what goes on under our little roof?
Speaker 2 (03:22):
None of your business?
Speaker 4 (03:23):
Now where you leave that handsome hunk of man on
the bed? Al Compton?
Speaker 1 (03:28):
Didn't I tell you to be? Did all right, darling?
Speaker 4 (03:31):
If you don't want me to stay?
Speaker 2 (03:32):
Ah holder, Claire, I changed my mind.
Speaker 4 (03:37):
I thought that was a woman for Rody.
Speaker 2 (03:40):
You wouldn't be thinking of going up to see his boss, Ken.
Speaker 1 (03:42):
Brady, would you?
Speaker 2 (03:44):
Would you mind very much? You don't want to jump
the conclusions, Claire. Mister Compton just dropped into chat. He
had a couple too many, and.
Speaker 7 (03:52):
He passed that hard stuff is awful, listess, especially when
you get.
Speaker 4 (03:56):
It from the end of a blackjack. Now listen, Claire, sure,
what's it worth to you?
Speaker 1 (04:02):
What's what worth?
Speaker 4 (04:03):
To me keeping my mouth shut.
Speaker 2 (04:07):
A thousand dollars. Oh no, I might be a mind baby.
If you don't want it, that's all right with me too.
Speaker 7 (04:13):
Yeah, don't be cheap, donn After all, in your bracket,
how much can you keep?
Speaker 1 (04:16):
I said, I'll give you a grand take it or
leave it.
Speaker 4 (04:18):
I'll take it, though I'd like to try to.
Speaker 1 (04:21):
You're gonna talk all night with that dame.
Speaker 2 (04:24):
Just a second, Eddie, listen, Claire, I want you to
take a little walk for a while.
Speaker 1 (04:28):
Come back in a couple of hours.
Speaker 2 (04:30):
Four thirty.
Speaker 1 (04:30):
All right, our five will be even.
Speaker 4 (04:33):
Better and you'll have that money ready.
Speaker 1 (04:36):
I said I would.
Speaker 2 (04:40):
Okay, Eddie, get them up here, come.
Speaker 6 (04:43):
On, come wake up, Let me alone. Man, you have
to go back to sleep after the boast.
Speaker 1 (04:50):
Hello Comton, Oh you Nick Daniels, an't you?
Speaker 2 (04:53):
That's right? I'm already sorry about this, fellow, but I
hadn't taught you. Now I've got a proposition for your Compton.
Speaker 1 (05:04):
I'm not interested.
Speaker 2 (05:05):
Want to cheer me on. I've been doing a little
checking up on you. They tell me you're Brady's fair
haired boy. Tweat you like his own son.
Speaker 1 (05:14):
So so I'm going to show you how to commercialize on.
Speaker 2 (05:17):
It now, I'd like to open up a couple of
gambling clubs around town.
Speaker 1 (05:22):
Are you're crazy? You think Brady would stand for it
while he's in the.
Speaker 2 (05:25):
Business, That's just it. He's not going to be in
business much longer. What do you mean we're going to
knock off his club regularly?
Speaker 1 (05:32):
What? Yes?
Speaker 2 (05:33):
And when his customers see the rough stuff that goes on,
I don't think they'll be flocking there anymore.
Speaker 1 (05:37):
Already in mind, Daniels, you don't think it'll work now.
Speaker 6 (05:40):
We got spots all over the place. It so, I'm
like a fortress. How are you going to get your
boys past the guards? That's where you come in.
Speaker 1 (05:48):
You think i'd sell out Brady after all he's done.
I think you'd sell out your own mother of the
price will ride. You can take your money.
Speaker 2 (05:55):
He's talking about money. There are other things in life
besides that, and that makes sense. Haven't heard of a
man named Sam Richards? No funny. I found a guy
in mobile who was wanting to identify he was the
lad who killed Richards in a fight over some girl.
That's a lie, seems this friend of mine was living
(06:15):
across the street and saw the whole thing from his window.
You're bluffing, do you think?
Speaker 1 (06:19):
So? What take a look at these pictures? Where did
you get him? Oh?
Speaker 2 (06:26):
I forgot to mention that this friend of mine is
a camera enthusiast, and he thought a picture of you
bending over the body might come in.
Speaker 6 (06:32):
But you're not frightening me. Daniel's Brady knows all about that, Messa.
Speaker 2 (06:35):
Yeah, but the comps don't. What do you say, Compton?
Do you cooperate.
Speaker 1 (06:43):
When when I get the pictures? Don't give him a thought.
I'll deliver right after you do. Sorry, Jude, you see
you see the spot on anither way. I'm a dead duck.
Speaker 8 (07:04):
What does this Nick Daniels have on you? It can't
be if you're totally across this.
Speaker 6 (07:09):
And Judy, I swear all this happened long before I
ever met you.
Speaker 8 (07:11):
And why can't you tell me what it is?
Speaker 2 (07:13):
I just can't. That's all.
Speaker 6 (07:14):
Just take my word for it that Daniels wasn't sounding
off by double cross him.
Speaker 2 (07:17):
It can mean my life.
Speaker 8 (07:19):
What are you gonna do?
Speaker 1 (07:20):
What can I do? When I came to New York,
I was a bum. Brady took a liking to me.
He gave me a job.
Speaker 8 (07:25):
You mean you're gonna tell him about Nick Daniel?
Speaker 1 (07:27):
Yes, No, you can't do that. Out you got a
better idea.
Speaker 8 (07:30):
Yes, why don't we leave town?
Speaker 6 (07:32):
How far do you think we'd get Daniels? Probably as
a boy now watching the hotel?
Speaker 8 (07:37):
Then why didn't you do what Daniels wants?
Speaker 4 (07:38):
Brady had never suspect.
Speaker 1 (07:39):
Would you forget it?
Speaker 8 (07:40):
If you really loved me, then don't say anything to
break Just get out of my way to Judie.
Speaker 1 (07:44):
No, I won't let you go out.
Speaker 4 (07:46):
You can't stop me.
Speaker 2 (07:48):
I can try l.
Speaker 5 (08:00):
No way.
Speaker 1 (08:03):
Nobody here.
Speaker 2 (08:07):
Yeah, let me talk to Mike wearing met here?
Speaker 1 (08:11):
What's thematic? Kids?
Speaker 2 (08:12):
Did I wake him? Oh that's a pretty ridiculous question.
Speaker 1 (08:15):
Corby, what do you want?
Speaker 9 (08:16):
That's no way to talk to a guy who's going
to do you a favor.
Speaker 2 (08:19):
Look such, I don't like guys doing me favorite at
three o'clock in the morning.
Speaker 9 (08:22):
Okay, Mike, if you don't want to meet her.
Speaker 1 (08:24):
What are you babbling about?
Speaker 9 (08:25):
I just picked up a little number who's out of
her mind to meet the fault and you interested. Nope,
she's blonde, five feet too. I said I wasn't here
here that would put venus to shame. Oh what's the
name Judy Waynwright?
Speaker 1 (08:40):
Never heard of her? You're well, she just killed al
Compton ken Brady's boy.
Speaker 9 (08:45):
That's right, she wants to hire you.
Speaker 1 (08:48):
Is that why you called me?
Speaker 2 (08:49):
Yeah, I'll tell miss Wayne Right.
Speaker 1 (08:51):
I'm not interested.
Speaker 9 (08:52):
Nah, you're being smart, Mike.
Speaker 1 (08:54):
What do you mean?
Speaker 9 (08:55):
Well, strictly between you and me and the guy who's
hiding under your racing form. This is old girl hasn't
got a prayer, not a chance. She's up the well
known creek without a paddle. I bet the jury won't
take twenty minutes to strap her into the chair. I
want to hear the story she tried to give us.
Speaker 2 (09:12):
No, never mind, Satan, you always follow up a story.
Tell miss Wayne Right. I will be able to hear
it myself.
Speaker 3 (09:34):
And now back to the adventures of the Falcon. An
hour has passed and Sergeant Corbett, acting at the behest
of Judy Wainwright, got in touch with Mike Wearing, and
now at a local jail, how the Falcon listens, Miss
Wainwright talks for herself.
Speaker 8 (09:52):
You've got to believe me, mister Wearing, I didn't.
Speaker 2 (09:54):
Kill all And now come you didn't see the murderer
because my back was to the door and you didn't
hear it open. No, how do you explain the gun
being found in the room.
Speaker 8 (10:04):
The killer must have thrown it in.
Speaker 1 (10:06):
How did your fingerprints get on it?
Speaker 8 (10:08):
I don't remember. I was so dazed, I probably picked
it up without thinking.
Speaker 2 (10:13):
And they weren't so dazed that you couldn't pack a
bag and head for the nearest bus line, where the.
Speaker 1 (10:17):
Cops grabbed you. I tell you I didn't know what
I was doing.
Speaker 2 (10:20):
You had a fight with Compton, didn't you?
Speaker 1 (10:22):
No?
Speaker 4 (10:22):
I was crazy about it.
Speaker 2 (10:24):
How come the people next door heard you arguing? Corbet
tells me they heard Compton say he was walking out
on you and you wouldn't let him go.
Speaker 4 (10:29):
That's a lie.
Speaker 2 (10:31):
Did you or didn't you say you were going to
stop him?
Speaker 4 (10:33):
What is this a third degree? Just what side are
you on, mister Waring?
Speaker 1 (10:37):
I haven't decided.
Speaker 5 (10:38):
Ye.
Speaker 1 (10:39):
Well, if that's the.
Speaker 8 (10:39):
Way you feel, I'll get someone else. Falcon's not the
only private detective in town.
Speaker 1 (10:44):
Okay, And Jew no hot feelings?
Speaker 8 (10:47):
He no, wait, mister worry, Yeah, I'll tell you anything
you want to know.
Speaker 5 (10:55):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (10:56):
I suppose we start with the last question.
Speaker 8 (10:58):
I asked, Well, Al and I were arguing, but it
wasn't over what you think Al worked for Ken Brady.
Speaker 1 (11:06):
You're not telling me anything.
Speaker 8 (11:07):
You Well, late last night a man came down with
a proposition either Al helped him ruin Brady's club.
Speaker 1 (11:15):
Or else or else what?
Speaker 4 (11:17):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (11:18):
It was blackmail of some sort. What was Compa's decision?
Speaker 8 (11:21):
He was going to tell Brady the whole story, even
though it meant it's like that's why I wouldn't let
him go.
Speaker 2 (11:27):
And would you know the name of the party who
tried to blackjack him into line?
Speaker 1 (11:31):
Yes? It was Nick Daniels, the gentleman from Indianapolis.
Speaker 4 (11:36):
I think, so.
Speaker 1 (11:37):
Do you know him?
Speaker 2 (11:39):
No, but I've always wanted to and this may be
my chance. Hey, Satan, I want out.
Speaker 4 (11:56):
Want me to get that Nick.
Speaker 7 (11:57):
Do you no trouble?
Speaker 1 (12:02):
Hello?
Speaker 4 (12:04):
Yes, just a minute, it is your Indianapolis call Nate.
The operator says she's ready with Wilson.
Speaker 2 (12:09):
Just tell him I won't need those strong arm men.
Speaker 4 (12:12):
I asked him for anything else.
Speaker 2 (12:15):
No, I'll just say I'll be back in a couple
of days. Fine, all right on, Claire, I'll take care
of him.
Speaker 4 (12:21):
Hello Wilson, Nick asked me to relation go to you.
Speaker 1 (12:24):
Yeah, hello Nick?
Speaker 2 (12:28):
Do I know you are not like you're going to
My name is Mike Waring. Oh the fucking what do
you want with me? I'm working for a girl named
Judy Wainwright.
Speaker 1 (12:40):
I don't believe I know her. She was engaged al Compton.
Speaker 2 (12:44):
Oh too bad.
Speaker 1 (12:45):
It was broken and you know he was murdered, And
sure I heard it on the radio.
Speaker 2 (12:51):
Sad, wasn't it as very? It doesn't strike you strange
that he should be knocked off right after you worked
on him to double cross Brady? Who told you that
little birdie? What's this little birdie's name? What difference does
that make? It's got a long tongue. Maybe somebody ought
to pull it out, Eddie, first game right.
Speaker 1 (13:15):
Get your hands off me? What are you doing to
get your hands off me? The first time you.
Speaker 5 (13:24):
Come on?
Speaker 2 (13:25):
I said, ragging up? Quit playing around? Eddie used to
sadn't he's got my arm? One of that case, I'll
guess I'll have to take a hand.
Speaker 1 (13:37):
You all right, Eddie feels like he tore it out
of it. Suck at the stop wearing wearing. He's out cold.
Give me that vase.
Speaker 4 (13:51):
You're not going to hit him with it?
Speaker 5 (13:52):
Will you?
Speaker 2 (13:52):
Shut up? Leapt his head up, Nnie, that's fine. Don't
tell the water wearing. Can you wonder?
Speaker 1 (14:05):
No suit yourself? Who told you about my deal without Compton?
That's none of your stop it.
Speaker 2 (14:13):
I told you to keep.
Speaker 1 (14:15):
Out of this clan.
Speaker 2 (14:17):
What amster wearing?
Speaker 1 (14:19):
He don't think?
Speaker 2 (14:19):
I'll tell you? Sure I do, but you're going to
be disappointed. Okay, Eddie, take off his shoes. Hey, what's
the idea. I'm going to show you how we make
it hot for guys like you back in Indianapolis?
Speaker 1 (14:32):
Wouldn't but watch and see you gonna match it in? Sure?
Speaker 5 (14:38):
No, Nick, Well he still ain't talking.
Speaker 1 (14:52):
What did you come out for?
Speaker 2 (14:53):
Go back in there with clan, work on it till
he does.
Speaker 6 (14:56):
So you see's out cold from the look. Said that
he will be for another three or four hours.
Speaker 2 (15:00):
It's fine.
Speaker 1 (15:01):
Now.
Speaker 2 (15:01):
Am I gonna find out who told him?
Speaker 1 (15:02):
I got the Compton? Maybe he just gisted?
Speaker 2 (15:05):
Nah, nah, No, you don't guess things like that, Eddie.
Somebody's been talking out of turn. Maybe it was clead maybe,
but again maybe it was you. What kind of a
crack is that class started to make a grand of
things have broken? Right, So take it anyway you like, all.
Speaker 6 (15:23):
Right, Nick, as long as you mentioned it, Where do
White stand in this deal? I told you that before,
before things were different, I was supposed to get five
percent of everything you made in New York. So so
right now, the best you can hope for us to
keep your health. If Brady ever hears of this stunt,
you won't live long enough to regret it.
Speaker 1 (15:39):
Where does that leave me? The same place it leaves me? Well,
not quite. You got dough? I haven't. That's tough, but
only on you. What's the idea of the gun? Eddie?
I want ten grand for my trouble? You heard me?
I haven't got it here, don't hear me that.
Speaker 2 (15:55):
I'll let you look at my wallet.
Speaker 1 (15:56):
I'm fresh out of course, we plenty to start operating.
Speaker 6 (15:58):
You've got plenty more in your safe, sure, but that's
down in the office. All right, Let's go to the office, okay.
Speaker 2 (16:04):
Man, When a fellow's got something coming to him, I'd
be the last one to stop him from getting it.
Speaker 1 (16:12):
Let me get my coat.
Speaker 7 (16:21):
Oh take it, easy, hand, son of your right?
Speaker 1 (16:26):
How are you.
Speaker 7 (16:27):
Cannot be very flattering, mister wedding. I was kind of
hoping you noticed me when you first came in.
Speaker 1 (16:33):
Oh I did?
Speaker 4 (16:34):
You had me worried for a minute.
Speaker 1 (16:36):
I thought I was slipping for And what time is it?
Speaker 4 (16:38):
A quarter of nine?
Speaker 1 (16:40):
I mean I've been alone here for almost three.
Speaker 4 (16:41):
Hours alone, honey, I've been keeping you company.
Speaker 1 (16:45):
Oh, how lucky me? What's your name, Claire? And what's
the rest of it?
Speaker 4 (16:51):
Aim? Miss Claire?
Speaker 1 (16:53):
Aim? Since when has it been? Miss? It wasn't so
long ago.
Speaker 2 (16:58):
You were wearing a wedding ring there?
Speaker 4 (17:00):
Who tells you that?
Speaker 2 (17:01):
Oh I'm clairvoyant? Besides, you still got a band of
white on your left hand. Oh yeah, I see how
simple it is?
Speaker 1 (17:09):
And who is a lucky man?
Speaker 4 (17:10):
What difference does it make?
Speaker 1 (17:12):
Because I've got a feeling it was Nick Daniels.
Speaker 4 (17:15):
How did you know that?
Speaker 1 (17:16):
Oh, just a hunch he was still married to the guy.
Speaker 7 (17:19):
Yeah, but don't give up, hope, Hanson. I don't think
it will least. I've been thinking of ringo for quite
a while.
Speaker 1 (17:27):
How would Nick like that? You wouldn't? How'd you get
into this mess? Anyway?
Speaker 4 (17:32):
They promised me a thousand dollars about help. I needed
the money.
Speaker 1 (17:37):
Did he and Eddie kill Al Compton? Use your head?
Speaker 4 (17:40):
What was that percentage? Compton was the boy?
Speaker 1 (17:43):
H are they now?
Speaker 4 (17:44):
They left about two hours ago for Nick's office?
Speaker 1 (17:48):
What do they do with my shoes?
Speaker 7 (17:49):
Don't be a fool wearing You can't hobble around in
your condition.
Speaker 1 (17:52):
He just lies. Still, I'll get a doctor.
Speaker 2 (17:54):
Uh, don't you bother? I live through it too bad.
I can't say as much for your husband. What's Nick's office?
Speaker 1 (18:09):
Claire?
Speaker 4 (18:09):
Last one down the hall?
Speaker 2 (18:11):
Uh?
Speaker 4 (18:11):
Look, Mike, what's your interest in this case?
Speaker 1 (18:13):
Isn't that obvious? I'm looking for our coffin's murderer?
Speaker 4 (18:16):
Why?
Speaker 2 (18:17):
Because I got a client named Judy Wainwright. The police
think did it?
Speaker 4 (18:21):
I see, yes, but that's where the league was.
Speaker 7 (18:25):
Huh that's how you knew that Nick approached Constance?
Speaker 1 (18:29):
Uh? Huh?
Speaker 4 (18:29):
And the police think that your client is guilty?
Speaker 1 (18:32):
Yep?
Speaker 4 (18:33):
What makes you so sure she isn't?
Speaker 1 (18:35):
Oh? I don't call it blind faith.
Speaker 4 (18:37):
I wish I could find someone to believe.
Speaker 1 (18:39):
In me that way, Well, maybe we could work out
a deal. It's the place, Yes, who's the Star Trading company?
Speaker 4 (18:48):
That's the name Nick is using in New York?
Speaker 1 (18:52):
Well, I guess there's nobody.
Speaker 4 (18:54):
That's the matter.
Speaker 1 (18:55):
I spoke too soon. The door is open, I twitch
I got it.
Speaker 2 (19:02):
Well, awfully careless of mister Nick Daniels leave his office
in this condition. Doesn't it strike he was being sloppy? No,
obviously we both can't be looking at the same thing.
And the first thing I noticed was that open closet.
And the next thing I saw that's who it is, Claire.
Speaker 7 (19:20):
What's wrong with him?
Speaker 2 (19:23):
Just to mention one thing, he's dead.
Speaker 1 (19:26):
Hand me the phone, Agel, I got to call the police.
Speaker 9 (19:37):
Here saying Sergeant Carpet speaking, Oh, Corbett is wearing Wow,
I've been keeping yourself ran your client's been asking for you.
Speaker 2 (19:45):
I did tell miss Wayne right, he's got nothing to
worry about. I'll be down in five minutes with the
proof that she didn't kill Compton.
Speaker 1 (19:50):
What do you call proof? I just found Eddie Nichols's body.
Say that again.
Speaker 2 (19:56):
I just found Eddie nichols body. Nick Daniels, boy, someone
let them have a butcher knife right in the back.
Where did you find him in Nick's office?
Speaker 9 (20:04):
How do you figure that? Clere's Miss Waynwright.
Speaker 2 (20:06):
I'll explain it all when I see you sageant, but
it stands the reason the same party who killed al
Compton killed Eddie.
Speaker 9 (20:12):
I still don't see how that gives the caroling out.
Speaker 2 (20:14):
Oh, come off, But what's wrong with you, Corbett? That
he's been dead for less than an hour and for
the last five you've had my client in the lock
and key. I guess again.
Speaker 9 (20:22):
Miss Wainwright raised ten grand worth of bail at seven
o'clock tonight. That was three hours ago. You're joking if
you think so, will you hear the payoff? The guy
who put up the doll is a gentleman named Nick Daniels.
Speaker 2 (20:34):
Ain't bad enough to kill you. Now, back to the
Adventures of the Folcon.
Speaker 3 (20:58):
Power has passed since Mike Wearing was leave the news
that Judy Wainwright's bail was furnished by Nick Daniels, and
now with the gorgeous Missus Daniels in tow, the Falcon
tries to locate the good fads.
Speaker 1 (21:09):
Listen, Claire, I'm not sure Daniels wouldn't go any place.
Speaker 2 (21:12):
For this apartment? Well?
Speaker 1 (21:14):
Is he the here of his office? But the doorman said
he hasn't been back since he left me.
Speaker 4 (21:19):
Yes, obviously he knew where. Well, I guess the only
thing to do.
Speaker 5 (21:25):
Is to.
Speaker 1 (21:27):
Didn't wait, that seems like a smart idea.
Speaker 4 (21:31):
I want to drake.
Speaker 7 (21:33):
When here's to what we both want?
Speaker 1 (21:42):
Wait a minute, then, does Nick have a hotel suitet anywhere?
Speaker 4 (21:46):
Not that I know of?
Speaker 1 (21:47):
Where could he have taken Judy?
Speaker 4 (21:48):
Why are you so worried about her?
Speaker 2 (21:50):
You don't know how important that little lady is my
scheme of things?
Speaker 4 (21:53):
Do you think she killed Compton?
Speaker 7 (21:55):
Eddy?
Speaker 1 (21:57):
Judy? Where's Nick?
Speaker 5 (21:59):
Right by?
Speaker 2 (22:00):
So trying to be funny?
Speaker 1 (22:02):
You know what will happen? Why don't you want to
fear you out? Judy?
Speaker 8 (22:05):
God?
Speaker 4 (22:05):
You send him?
Speaker 2 (22:06):
You forgive me for using your name?
Speaker 1 (22:08):
Friend? How did you find out about her?
Speaker 2 (22:10):
I'm a gambler wearing I play hunches. This one paid
off right on the nose.
Speaker 1 (22:15):
Speaking of hunches, Nick, I've got a honey of my own.
Speaker 2 (22:18):
Yeah, yeah, I've got a feeling that one of the
things you're not expecting is this. Get that's not nice, Nick,
not come on, drop it, cut it on, get breaking
my arm and I'm gonna start.
Speaker 1 (22:31):
On your neck.
Speaker 4 (22:34):
Stop it.
Speaker 1 (22:34):
Call me Claire, You'll kill him.
Speaker 2 (22:36):
That's the general idea. Come on, Nick, get up, Let
him be Mike.
Speaker 7 (22:40):
He didn't kill Al Compton? No, No, how would he
know Compton was going.
Speaker 4 (22:43):
To double cross him? And tell Brady? I tell you
Nick had no motive.
Speaker 2 (22:46):
Who said he did what? I never claimed he had
a motive? Player, I just don't like this guy in
general principles.
Speaker 4 (22:51):
I don't get you.
Speaker 1 (22:53):
I'll see if this is any better.
Speaker 2 (22:54):
You killed Al Compton?
Speaker 1 (22:56):
Crazy. What's more, you killed Eddie.
Speaker 2 (22:57):
Nichols when he stumbled on the truth. I don't struggle, Angel,
now that I finished with mister Daniel, that just as
soon started as missus.
Speaker 1 (23:15):
So it was.
Speaker 8 (23:16):
Claire who was the villain of the piece.
Speaker 4 (23:18):
But why did she kill Al?
Speaker 8 (23:20):
She had nothing against him?
Speaker 2 (23:22):
Well that's what made this almost a perfect crime, Judy.
She had no motive, but her husband.
Speaker 1 (23:27):
Did you know?
Speaker 8 (23:27):
It was a frame?
Speaker 1 (23:28):
That's right, Angel, You.
Speaker 2 (23:30):
See, if Claire played ball with her husband or she
stood the game was one thousand dollars. But if Nick
went to the chair for the murder of Al and Eddie,
then as his widow she.
Speaker 8 (23:39):
Stood to come into a fortune.
Speaker 1 (23:40):
No, you've got it.
Speaker 2 (23:42):
While I was out cold, she followed Eddie and her
husband at the office, where she let Eddie heave it,
And you mean.
Speaker 8 (23:47):
To tell me Nick just stood by and did nothing.
Speaker 2 (23:51):
What was your reaction when you saw Al die that record?
Speaker 1 (23:55):
You were a little on the bewilders side.
Speaker 8 (23:57):
Yes, that's true.
Speaker 1 (23:59):
Why the same thing happened? Nick?
Speaker 8 (24:00):
But didn't Claire say she was with you while Eddie
and Nick were gone?
Speaker 2 (24:04):
Well? What could you expect her to do?
Speaker 1 (24:05):
Break down? Confessed after that going over, I got I
was in.
Speaker 2 (24:09):
No condition to tell whether or not she was lying.
Speaker 8 (24:12):
You'll find it hard to believe she was in that
hotel room while I was arguing with Al.
Speaker 1 (24:16):
Why you also worked up?
Speaker 2 (24:18):
You didn't notice the door open?
Speaker 3 (24:19):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (24:19):
Now, admit it, you're guessing. No, No, she had to
be in that room, Judy.
Speaker 2 (24:25):
You see she knew something she never could have known otherwise.
But Al was planning to double cross Nick by telling
his boss the whole story.
Speaker 1 (24:32):
Now Nick didn't know that.
Speaker 2 (24:33):
The only reason he was giving up the scheme of
breaking Brady was that with Al dead, it didn't stand
a chance of working.
Speaker 1 (24:39):
Sounds a clear m I see good.
Speaker 8 (24:42):
I only wish there was some way I could pay
you for all you've done?
Speaker 2 (24:45):
Oh there is?
Speaker 1 (24:46):
How Well? I don't think this is the proper time
to go in to that. Why not?
Speaker 2 (24:51):
A private detective liked to keep his fees strictly between
him and his client, and I could a feeling while
being overheard wait were alone
