M.
Speaker 2 (00:32):
Did they gotta make that one? Did you say?
Speaker 3 (00:34):
No?
Speaker 2 (00:35):
I think I'll be the club's bigger champion this year.
Speaker 4 (00:38):
If you'll play this way, Roger?
Speaker 3 (00:39):
But will I? That's the question.
Speaker 2 (00:41):
Yeah, See if you can make the same shot, I'll silly?
Speaker 4 (00:44):
Can he get I'll try? Didn't look easy and it wasn't.
Speaker 2 (00:52):
If you want to see a hard one wants this.
Speaker 4 (00:55):
Trying to make me feel worse than I do already.
Speaker 5 (00:57):
What I'm trying to do is make myself feel better.
What God, that's what reverse.
Speaker 2 (01:09):
English tests for you. You're no you tried to see
if you know I've had enough?
Speaker 4 (01:13):
Roger?
Speaker 5 (01:14):
Hey, Hey, Sam, nice boys don't throw Q sticks on
the floor.
Speaker 6 (01:19):
I'm sorry I didn't mean to. But no use, Roger,
what's no use?
Speaker 4 (01:24):
I can't stop thinking.
Speaker 7 (01:25):
I can't stop wondering who I was and what I
did before I came to town.
Speaker 2 (01:29):
Look, Sam, you've been talking about that now for ten years.
Speaker 5 (01:33):
Will you cut it out before you give everybody the
creeps and drive yourself crapy?
Speaker 4 (01:36):
I can't. Lately it's been getting worse.
Speaker 7 (01:39):
Listen, I'm Sam Fisher now, but I wasn't before I
lost my memory.
Speaker 4 (01:44):
Roger, don't you understand why I'm so jumpy.
Speaker 7 (01:46):
I came to this city a little over ten years
ago with no memory of who I was, or where
i'd din or what i'd done. I had an accident.
I woke up in Kansas City, and I didn't know
my name. No one did her where I come from.
They just found me in the streets unconscious.
Speaker 2 (01:58):
So what, Sam, everybody knows who you are now. You're
rapidly married man, an important business executive, one of the
city's best dressed men.
Speaker 4 (02:07):
But I've got to know who I was.
Speaker 7 (02:08):
I've got to I'm sorry, Roger, I've I've got to
get out of here.
Speaker 4 (02:12):
This this place is getting on my nerves.
Speaker 1 (02:14):
I'm letta get some mayor, don't go too far away.
Speaker 2 (02:17):
Sam, Oh, hello.
Speaker 4 (02:31):
Missus Fisher.
Speaker 2 (02:32):
Please, Oh, Rita, I didn't recognize your voice. This is Roger.
I'm in the billiard room of the club. Your husband
just walked out on me.
Speaker 8 (02:42):
Oh, it's poor darling, Sam upset.
Speaker 5 (02:44):
Again, upset that obsession is is driving him out of
his mind.
Speaker 2 (02:49):
Yeah, isn't it a shame? Shame it's taken him this
long to begin to crack. Uh pretty soon, Rita, we
can do exactly what.
Speaker 9 (02:59):
We planned, and now on to Nick Calmer as Boston Blackie.
Enemy to those who make him an enemy, friend to
those who have no friend.
Speaker 10 (03:21):
Now, let me get this straight, mister Fisher. You don't
think you're really Sam Fisher?
Speaker 7 (03:26):
No, Blackie, how can I be just the name I
gave myself when I came to after an accident in
Kansas City ten years ago.
Speaker 10 (03:32):
I see, But why did you pick that particular name?
It might have some bearing in your past.
Speaker 3 (03:38):
No, I'm afraid it doesn't.
Speaker 6 (03:40):
You see, I call myself Sam Fisher because my doctor's
name was Sam and he was an excellent Fisher.
Speaker 3 (03:46):
Well takes care of that.
Speaker 10 (03:47):
Tell me this, how much effort have you made to
find out who you were before you became Sam Fisher?
Speaker 3 (03:51):
None? I was afraid to afraid too. Why.
Speaker 4 (03:55):
Well, somewhere in.
Speaker 7 (03:56):
The back of my mind I had a vague memory
that I'd done something wrong.
Speaker 3 (04:00):
But it was just a glimmer of a memory.
Speaker 7 (04:01):
So faint it never took shape, never never gave me
an inkling in my past. But it's always with me,
always harding me, pogging at my conscience.
Speaker 4 (04:09):
Blackie.
Speaker 7 (04:09):
I I just can't stand it my so longer.
Speaker 10 (04:11):
So you want to find out who you were, where
you've been, and what you did before you became.
Speaker 3 (04:15):
Sam Fisher say, I've got to I've.
Speaker 4 (04:17):
Got to know, no matter how terrible the truth.
Speaker 10 (04:18):
Is, mister Fisher. Why are you so convinced that you
did something wrong before you had that accident? Why do
you think that?
Speaker 7 (04:25):
I just think that's all. I can't help it. It's
there in my mind, Blackie. You've helped others. I know
you can help me. I'll give you all your sisters
I can't.
Speaker 10 (04:34):
But how can you help me when your memory stops
with that accident ten years ago?
Speaker 6 (04:39):
Tell you something I've told only to Missus Fisher and
a few of my closest friends.
Speaker 7 (04:43):
It's about a dream I have, fantastic dream that I
have almost every night.
Speaker 3 (04:48):
I excuse me, hello, I'd like to speak to mister Fisher.
Speaker 8 (04:52):
Please, I understand he's there. This is Missus Fisher.
Speaker 3 (04:55):
Oh just a minute, this is your wife, mister Fisher. Oh,
thank you, yes reader.
Speaker 8 (05:00):
Oh Sam, I hope I've called you in time. So
May said you left for Boston, Blackie an hour ago.
How much have you told him?
Speaker 7 (05:06):
Well, not very much of anything. Dear you sound offully
upset what's the matter.
Speaker 8 (05:10):
Well, Roger just owned he's found out something.
Speaker 4 (05:12):
About you before the accident.
Speaker 8 (05:15):
Yes, Sam, and it's awful. Don't tell anybody anything, not
until you've seen Roger.
Speaker 7 (05:19):
He's found out something about me. What what did he
find out?
Speaker 8 (05:22):
I don't want to talk about it over the phone.
Speaker 2 (05:24):
Roger opened. He he's waiting for you at the club.
Speaker 8 (05:26):
Now get down there right away, all.
Speaker 4 (05:27):
Right, dear, I will right away.
Speaker 3 (05:29):
Well that sounded important and encouraging.
Speaker 4 (05:32):
Blackie. I'm sorry, but I'll have to leave, believe, but
you were just about the time.
Speaker 7 (05:36):
Sorry, Blackie, but I can't tell you anything now. I
don't think i'll need your help. I don't think anybody
can help me now.
Speaker 4 (05:53):
So I was right about myself, Roger. I was a
murderer before I lost my memory.
Speaker 2 (05:58):
Well, it isn't positive, saying, there's only an indication that
you were. I'm checking further. Now you get in the
cab and go.
Speaker 3 (06:05):
Home to Reda.
Speaker 4 (06:06):
How can I murder?
Speaker 2 (06:07):
Well, no, I don't know for sure yet, Sam, don't understand.
Speaker 4 (06:10):
When will you know?
Speaker 2 (06:12):
It'll take a little while.
Speaker 5 (06:13):
I want to check slowly and carefully. Here there's a
cab waiting of a stamp. Actually, Roger, let me help
you check up on this thing. No, no, Sam, you'll
stay on it, if not for your own sake for readers.
Speaker 4 (06:25):
Well you you'll let me know your progress, won't you.
Speaker 2 (06:28):
If I make any man, I'll get in the cab,
go on home, and don't worry.
Speaker 3 (06:32):
Don't worry.
Speaker 4 (06:34):
I won't sleep till you find out the truth, Roger,
find it out soon, will you? As soon as I can?
Speaker 10 (06:39):
Night?
Speaker 4 (06:40):
Sam, Night, Roger, Thank you for everything.
Speaker 1 (06:43):
By Sam.
Speaker 2 (06:49):
You're a nice guy. Sam. You'll live a long and
happy life, I imagine, but you'll never be seen again.
Speaker 6 (07:07):
But missus Fisher, the missing Person's Burea can't go out
looking for every man and woman who stays away from.
Speaker 4 (07:13):
Home over night.
Speaker 8 (07:14):
That you don't seem to understand, Martin. My husband's never
done this before, and he was terribly upset last night
when he got into that cab.
Speaker 3 (07:21):
I know something's happened to him. Why are you so sure?
Speaker 8 (07:25):
Because it's something he was afraid of. He thinks he
has amneedia, that he's not really Sam Fisher at all,
but someone else.
Speaker 2 (07:34):
Killer.
Speaker 6 (07:35):
Maybe are you talking about the same Sam Fisher I'm
thinking about.
Speaker 5 (07:39):
Miss Fisher he's a Sam Fisher who was voted one
of the city's best dressed men this year.
Speaker 3 (07:44):
We're talking about the same man, so.
Speaker 8 (07:45):
Then I don't have to describe him before you do.
Speaker 3 (07:48):
Oh no, I know what he looks like.
Speaker 6 (07:50):
We won't be hard to find, missus Fisher. If he's
really missing, which I doubt, but I think he is.
Speaker 4 (07:55):
I know he is.
Speaker 11 (07:56):
He's probably run away or suddenly become the person he
was before he lost his memory.
Speaker 3 (08:01):
Mm, I might be.
Speaker 4 (08:03):
You say he was last scene getting into a cab
in front of his club.
Speaker 8 (08:06):
Yes by Roger Ainsley, a friend of his.
Speaker 3 (08:09):
Uh huh?
Speaker 6 (08:10):
Had had your husband done anything out of the ordinary yesterday?
Speaker 3 (08:15):
Well?
Speaker 8 (08:16):
No, no, but he was especially upset about himself, so
when he went to Boston Blackie for help and finding
out about his past.
Speaker 3 (08:23):
Went to see Boston Blackie. H. Yes, did he see Blackie? Yes?
Speaker 8 (08:27):
I phoned him and he was talking to Blackie.
Speaker 6 (08:29):
Then h I ain't got call Inspector Faraday.
Speaker 3 (08:32):
He might be interested in that.
Speaker 8 (08:34):
Why, Lieutenant, do you think Blackie might have something to
do with my husband's disappearance?
Speaker 3 (08:39):
Well, I don't know, Miss Fisher.
Speaker 6 (08:40):
I'm just checking that angle as possibility. Hello, inspector. There's
Lieutenant Martin over and missing person.
Speaker 1 (08:49):
Oh hello, model, you found anything lately?
Speaker 3 (08:54):
No, we just lost one.
Speaker 4 (08:56):
Yeah, Sam Fisher. Last scene getting into a taxi outside
of the Nicle Club.
Speaker 1 (09:00):
Nicle Club.
Speaker 3 (09:01):
Huh yes, I know that doesn't interest.
Speaker 6 (09:03):
Your Faraday, but this might Fisher was up to see
your friend Blackie the evening he disappeared up to see Blackie.
Speaker 1 (09:10):
Huh. Well, this is more interesting to me than you think.
It ties in with a case. The homicide Department's just
started work on. I can follow you on missing mister
Fisher's track step by step, Martin.
Speaker 3 (09:19):
You can.
Speaker 1 (09:20):
He left Blackie, went to his club, took a taxi
from his club to the waterfront, and then disappeared.
Speaker 12 (09:25):
How do you know he went to the waterfront because
we just found.
Speaker 1 (09:27):
The cabby took the Cabby's report chos. His last stop
was the Arnicle Club.
Speaker 4 (09:31):
The Cabby described Fisher as his passenger.
Speaker 1 (09:34):
The Cabby wasn't in condition to describe anything. He was dead,
strangled with the necktime. And I think I can tie
Boston Blackie into this too.
Speaker 11 (09:51):
All right, you guys, finish with those pictures and let's
cut that body out of here. Maybe you guys like
the salt air at the waterfront. But I get seasick
on a plaque lake, so I'll make it snappy all
the tenor Martin find Leggy.
Speaker 3 (10:05):
Here he is, Yes, here, I am Paraday, And here
you are. Here's a dead body and his where I
solve another case for you?
Speaker 12 (10:11):
I'll hold hum you.
Speaker 1 (10:12):
I know who killed this guy blanking. It was Sam Fisher.
A lovely red and green tire around the cabby's neck
came from around Fisher's neck, only.
Speaker 3 (10:18):
It fits the cabby's neck a little too tightly.
Speaker 1 (10:20):
Yeah, and you know why Fisher killed this cab driver
and where Fisher is now?
Speaker 3 (10:25):
Well do you? But don't you don't?
Speaker 10 (10:27):
I say, by the way, Paraday, keep away from the waterfront,
that you will.
Speaker 3 (10:32):
Wind up mounted on some fisherman's living room wall. And
don't try to get me connected with this. All I
know is Fisher came to me for help last evening.
Speaker 10 (10:40):
He thought he was suffering from amnesia, and he wanted
me to find out who he was before his mind
went blank.
Speaker 3 (10:46):
Anyone else, There's no more else, Paraday. He got a
phone call from his wife.
Speaker 10 (10:51):
And then beat it out of my apartments. I haven't
done anything on the case because I was out with
Merry last.
Speaker 1 (10:55):
Night girl Nyagan guad with her again right now.
Speaker 4 (10:58):
I just wanted to hear his story.
Speaker 1 (11:00):
I know what happened here. Fisher's run away. He killed
his cabby so he couldn't tell.
Speaker 10 (11:04):
Which big way he went. That's a nice theory if
you inspect your children. Remarkable logic. But as usual, it's
wrong because you say so.
Speaker 3 (11:12):
No, because the green and red necktie says so.
Speaker 10 (11:15):
He was found twisted around the cab driver's neck, right, So,
so somebody twisted it around his neck. Chances are somebody
was wearing the necktie, took it off and strangled driver.
Speaker 1 (11:23):
That's right, somebody named Sam Fisher, who.
Speaker 3 (11:26):
With memories serves me was one of the city's best
dressed men.
Speaker 1 (11:30):
What's that got to do with him not killing this
guy here?
Speaker 10 (11:32):
Fisher wouldn't wear a tie like that green and red thing, Faraday,
It's monstrous. He wouldn't be found dead wearing it, much
less use it on somebody else who's found dead.
Speaker 1 (11:41):
Some That's what I like about you, Blackie. You keep
saying that you're always helping me, and the first thing
you do always is complicate things. If Fisher didn't kill
the cab driver who killed him, I don't.
Speaker 10 (11:53):
Know, Furday, But as long as I'd told you who didn't,
I might just as well try to find out who did.
Speaker 9 (12:08):
And now back to Boston, Blackie, wealthy and prominent Sam Fisher,
recovered from an accident ten years ago, but suffered loss
of memory. When his friend Roger Ainsley tells Fisher that
he has made a mild discovery about the years before
the loss of memory, Fisher gets into a cab and
(12:30):
is not seen again, but the cab is found, and
so is.
Speaker 3 (12:34):
The driver, dead strangled with a neck tie.
Speaker 9 (12:38):
As we return to our story Boston, Blackie talks to
the missing man's friend, Roger Ainsley.
Speaker 3 (12:45):
Missus Fisher tells me you're one of her husband's closest friends.
Mister Ainsley man.
Speaker 5 (12:49):
His greatest admirer of Blackie. Oh why shouldn't I be?
I had a little two by four business eight years ago,
and look at my office today thanks to the contacts
I made them.
Speaker 10 (12:58):
Sam Fisher apparently to him, yes, perhaps you canna help
us find him.
Speaker 2 (13:03):
Well, I don't know how he's still missing. And the
cab driver who took him to the waterfront is dead.
Speaker 3 (13:08):
You put Fisher into that cab, didn't you?
Speaker 2 (13:11):
Yes?
Speaker 3 (13:11):
Did you get a good look at the driver?
Speaker 8 (13:13):
No?
Speaker 2 (13:13):
I didn't like it was dark and besides, all cab
drivers look like to me. Did the police really think
Sam kill that Kebby?
Speaker 10 (13:20):
They think so, but I don't. That wasn't Fisher's necktie
found around the cab driver's neck. Wasn't his type of tie,
and it wasn't expensive enough for him.
Speaker 2 (13:29):
Well, I will say Sam had expensive taste and blues.
Speaker 3 (13:31):
And good too. Do you remember what Fisher was wearing
when he got into that cab? Yes, I do.
Speaker 2 (13:37):
A blue double breasted pin striped suit was his newest.
Speaker 3 (13:40):
Yes, Yes, that's right. He wore it up to my place.
And that's further proof Fisher didn't kill that driver.
Speaker 10 (13:47):
He never, never in the world would he wear a
green and red tie with blue, and he wasn't wearing
it when I saw him.
Speaker 3 (13:53):
Well, so much for Sam Fisher's present. What can you
tell me about his past?
Speaker 4 (13:58):
Nothing.
Speaker 5 (13:58):
I've known him moaning since he came to town, and
that was about ten years ago. He never told me
anything about his past because he didn't know anything about
it himself.
Speaker 3 (14:06):
You believe he actually suffered from amnesia.
Speaker 2 (14:08):
I don't know. He told a convincing story, and he
told it often. It's possibly he didn't have amnesia. I'm
sure of that.
Speaker 10 (14:16):
Well, that and the fact that he didn't kill that
cavvy and the only things I'm sure of about this case.
Speaker 3 (14:21):
Thanks for your time, Ainslie.
Speaker 2 (14:23):
Don't mention it.
Speaker 3 (14:24):
Well, I will mention this. You may hear from me again.
Speaker 2 (14:28):
Well, you know where to reach me any time you want.
Speaker 3 (14:31):
Goodbye, Goodbye, m oh I'm sorry, sailor. What's the matter
with your numbers? Can't you steer straight? Course? Sorry? Maybe
I thought I was plowing through mind water.
Speaker 2 (14:48):
Captain John, what are you doing here?
Speaker 6 (14:50):
You don't know, mister Ainsley, Well you got a surprise comment.
Speaker 5 (14:54):
Look, you're a fool to come here Forston Blackie was
just here if he saw you might start putting things together.
Speaker 2 (15:00):
He said you'd stay on your ship until it.
Speaker 12 (15:01):
Pulled out if everything went according to plan, mister rings glad, Well,
didn't it?
Speaker 2 (15:06):
You got your five thousand dollars to take Sam to
China with it, didn't you?
Speaker 10 (15:08):
I did?
Speaker 5 (15:10):
Well, then, what's wrong? I kept my part of the
bargain and I left Sam lying on the wharf with you,
just as I said.
Speaker 3 (15:15):
I would you dare? Then?
Speaker 2 (15:17):
What are you doing here?
Speaker 5 (15:17):
You're fool You realize somebody might get the connection between us,
and and looked, Sam was still there when you came
ashore to get him, wasn't he He didn't come to
and walk.
Speaker 3 (15:27):
Away to me?
Speaker 12 (15:28):
Oh he didn't walk away, He couldn't.
Speaker 4 (15:32):
And he didn't come too. He couldn't do that either.
Speaker 12 (15:36):
And what did you hit him with the broadside of
a foremasted schooner?
Speaker 8 (15:40):
Or no?
Speaker 2 (15:40):
Why what do you mean?
Speaker 4 (15:42):
I mean? Whatever you used? You hit him too hard?
Speaker 8 (15:44):
Why I found him on the wharf?
Speaker 3 (15:46):
He was dead? Dead? No, did die dead? Is the
wind in the sagas the sea.
Speaker 4 (15:53):
But I got rid of the body.
Speaker 2 (15:56):
This wasn't the plans, And it wasn't in my plans
to have to get get rid of a body.
Speaker 4 (16:01):
So I've changed my price.
Speaker 12 (16:04):
Ey, five thousand dollars you give me is just a
down payment.
Speaker 3 (16:08):
For my services.
Speaker 6 (16:09):
Now you better come aboard with five thousand more.
Speaker 2 (16:13):
But I don't have it.
Speaker 3 (16:14):
I don't have it. Eh, you better get it, land Love,
you better get.
Speaker 5 (16:21):
It, reader, Honey, Sam's dead and you're gonna come into
a fortune from his insurance along.
Speaker 8 (16:34):
But I'm gonna be careful how I spend it.
Speaker 5 (16:36):
Roger Darling, all right, pinch every penny of it until
a squeeze if you want it.
Speaker 2 (16:40):
But you gotta give me that five thousand dollars for
Captain Done.
Speaker 8 (16:42):
You kill them, you pay Captain Dunn.
Speaker 2 (16:45):
I don't have it. Besides, I didn't mean to kill
Sammer with an accident. I hit him too hard. You
certainly did.
Speaker 3 (16:51):
Look somebody.
Speaker 2 (16:53):
Would you want to stop you trying to get rid
of me?
Speaker 8 (16:56):
No, I'm not. I'm trying not to get rid of
five thousand dollars.
Speaker 2 (17:02):
Yeah, you're willing to do anything to get rid of sam.
Speaker 5 (17:05):
He thought it was wonderful when I came up with
the idea of telling Sam I knew something about his past,
and then to see that he got lost for good
so it looked like he ran away.
Speaker 8 (17:13):
It was a brilliant plan, Roger, brilliant.
Speaker 2 (17:16):
It was perfect.
Speaker 5 (17:17):
You were even gonna write to him after Captain Dunshang
had him a China. You were gonna tell him that
we were sure he was a murderer, so we know
he'd stay away.
Speaker 8 (17:24):
I was, But I'm not going to have to write
to him. Now you killed him. He's not in the
mood for letters.
Speaker 4 (17:30):
Look weird.
Speaker 2 (17:32):
Give me that five thousand dollars for Captain done. That's
all I ask.
Speaker 8 (17:35):
You killed my husband. That's something I didn't ask.
Speaker 2 (17:38):
All right, Maybe I did kill him, I said, Maybe
I did. I don't know.
Speaker 5 (17:44):
All I know is that I got to the waterfront
before him and his cabin. I did slug him, But
I also know I didn't kill that cab.
Speaker 7 (17:50):
Driver, and.
Speaker 2 (17:52):
I think you did.
Speaker 8 (17:56):
I did.
Speaker 2 (17:56):
Yeah, why, Roger, that's hit.
Speaker 1 (17:59):
You kill that driver.
Speaker 2 (18:00):
Only you and the cab driver knew my plans.
Speaker 5 (18:03):
After all, he was well paid to take the long
way around of the waterfront so I could get there first.
Speaker 2 (18:06):
But you were the only one who knew where that
cab driver would be and when.
Speaker 8 (18:11):
Well, what if I did, I had no reason.
Speaker 2 (18:12):
To kill him.
Speaker 5 (18:12):
Oh no, No, you killed him so we wouldn't tell
that i'd paid him to drive Sam to the wharf.
Speaker 2 (18:19):
You'll kill him so that there'd be a murder involve
in our scheme, and I'd have to keep my mouth
shut forever about it.
Speaker 8 (18:23):
You get out of here yet.
Speaker 2 (18:24):
I won't.
Speaker 5 (18:27):
You knew when that driver would drop your husband off
of the wharf. You waited up the road until the
cab passed, and then you hailed it. The driver and
his cab were found just a little ways up the
road from the wharf where Captain dunfound Sam.
Speaker 8 (18:38):
We had a beautiful imagination, Darling. Too bad it imagines
all the wrong things.
Speaker 5 (18:45):
All right, Go ahead deny it if you want to,
but that won't stop me from getting your money to
keep the words out of Captain Dunn's mouth and us
out of a gam.
Speaker 1 (19:09):
Lesson, blankie, are you trying to make a beach comber
out of me?
Speaker 4 (19:11):
We've boorded two ships in this.
Speaker 3 (19:13):
Dock and there are only three parodies. So come on,
let's get aboard this one and find out what we're
looking for, or go home.
Speaker 1 (19:19):
I don't know why we're looking for anything down here?
Speaker 3 (19:21):
Do I have to tell you all over again?
Speaker 10 (19:23):
We're looking for the ship's captain that came to see
Roger Ainsley this afternoon.
Speaker 1 (19:26):
Yes, so there's bound to be a connection between the
sea captain and Ainsley, because you think there's a connection
between Ainsley and the disappearance of Sam Fisher.
Speaker 3 (19:34):
And the dead cab driver too. Let's not forget him let's.
Speaker 1 (19:37):
Forget to go aboard this ship, and let's remember to
go back uptown too late.
Speaker 3 (19:40):
Inspect. We talked our way right up the gang plank,
and here.
Speaker 1 (19:43):
There's nobody on deck.
Speaker 3 (19:44):
Let's go. Oh, it's bound to be someone aboard. Hello, Hello,
anybody home?
Speaker 4 (19:51):
He?
Speaker 10 (19:51):
Hey?
Speaker 3 (19:52):
Oh's there? That's the man parody, that's the name? Who's
s safternoon?
Speaker 2 (19:56):
A hoy?
Speaker 12 (19:57):
Who's fie?
Speaker 3 (19:58):
I am captain, gonna talk to you?
Speaker 1 (20:00):
Hey, well, come up, come a quarter question, Franks, Come
steps here, blackie.
Speaker 2 (20:07):
If this is a wild goose chase, come on now fairly.
Speaker 3 (20:10):
Want to board? It should be nautical, if anything more
on a wild gold chase.
Speaker 4 (20:13):
Throw that joke overboard with you and don't let go
free me.
Speaker 10 (20:18):
Well, it's always properly pay a visit to the captain
of the ship when you in find yourself aboard, isn't
it you are the captain?
Speaker 4 (20:25):
Hey, come here?
Speaker 3 (20:28):
I mean I've seen you before.
Speaker 10 (20:30):
You have you bumped into me just outside Roger Ainsley's
off the store this afternoon.
Speaker 3 (20:34):
Oh so.
Speaker 4 (20:37):
You're still still a zigzag course?
Speaker 3 (20:39):
No, from now on I have to go straight to port.
This is Inspect.
Speaker 10 (20:43):
The paraday of the homicide squad. Ah, maybe I'm Boston, Blackie.
I don't think you told us your name done?
Speaker 4 (20:51):
Harve it done? What do you want aboard my ship?
Speaker 3 (20:54):
We'd like to know why you went to see Ansley
this afternoon.
Speaker 4 (20:57):
Personal business? And I suppose you want.
Speaker 12 (21:00):
I want to know why I'm wearing civilian clothes to
go ashore tonight. That's personal business too.
Speaker 3 (21:07):
Anything else, No, but I.
Speaker 10 (21:10):
Wonder if you know a man was killed and another
man disappeared in the vicinity of this wharf last night.
Speaker 4 (21:15):
Yes, I know, I heard it on the right.
Speaker 3 (21:18):
M M. A nice new tie, that captain.
Speaker 4 (21:22):
You got something on your mind, Blackie, that.
Speaker 3 (21:25):
Tie, Captain Dan. The rest of your short clothes were
in the rolled, but the tie is new, brand new.
You didn't leave your old one somewhere, did you? Oh?
Speaker 12 (21:36):
I threw it away.
Speaker 3 (21:37):
You threw it away.
Speaker 10 (21:38):
It flew down the road and wrapped itself around a
camp driver's neck and choked him to death.
Speaker 1 (21:43):
Hey, Blankie, that red and green striped tie would be
okay with the captain's suit, wouldn't.
Speaker 3 (21:46):
It, Yes, Faraday, But it isn't okay with the captain
that we've caught him with his white tie and right
come here. Why right, apparently these guys are big.
Speaker 10 (21:54):
Walk on, you're in this true, captain tramp Parry and
get to a point.
Speaker 3 (22:13):
You all right, Parny a little bruised, we're still here.
How about you present? And then in his slucking chums
are all accounted for.
Speaker 1 (22:22):
There was that table leg that accounted for little mic there.
It's a handy little gadget table leg.
Speaker 10 (22:28):
I got henry boy with an arm, my arm with
a fist on the end of it. And look it
up from the captain. He looks all at sea.
Speaker 8 (22:52):
Oh oh, why don't you stop that?
Speaker 1 (22:55):
All right, miss Fisher, Miss Translin, I'll see you in
my office now.
Speaker 2 (22:58):
Of course, that goer's back and fire.
Speaker 8 (23:03):
Oh stop whistling that turkey.
Speaker 1 (23:04):
In the straw, of course, Come on, come on, well,
what's the verdic expector?
Speaker 2 (23:10):
Faraday?
Speaker 8 (23:11):
I didn't kill anyone, don't you Let Roger say I did?
Speaker 4 (23:13):
He's lying?
Speaker 3 (23:18):
Wou rank him? Shall I tell him the bad news?
Or would you like to him? Well, I'll tell him
this much, Faraday.
Speaker 10 (23:23):
Ainsley, Miss Fisher, we got a confession from Captain Dunn
a moment ago.
Speaker 3 (23:26):
He killed both the cab driver and your husband.
Speaker 8 (23:28):
Missus Fisher, and you know I didn't do it, and
I didn't.
Speaker 10 (23:32):
No, Ainsley, Fisher was very much alive when the Captain
found him on the wharf, unconscious but alive.
Speaker 3 (23:37):
He didn't hit him too hot, that's right.
Speaker 1 (23:40):
Now, here's what happened. Captain Dunn killed the cab driver first.
He waited up the road near the wharf and hailed
a cab after it had been down to the dock
to dropped Fisher.
Speaker 10 (23:51):
The driver brought Fisher to the wharf so that you
could get a slug out of Mainsley. Captain Dunn killed
the cab driver to cover up the murder he was
about to committee. A dead cab driver can't talk about
his last passenger.
Speaker 8 (24:03):
Why did Captain Dunn kill my husband?
Speaker 10 (24:05):
He thought he could get more money from Ainsley. Ainsley
here thought that sam had died from that blow on
the head. Oh, it was a blow from the captain
that killed him.
Speaker 3 (24:13):
Though, So you too ought to be happy. You're not
going to jail for murder. I know I'm happy. Don't
let that become a habit, neither you nor missus Ainsley.
Speaker 8 (24:23):
Isn't the clear why que will do anything?
Speaker 1 (24:26):
Well, of course not all you did was conspired at
the fraud and inje of the person of Sam Fisher,
as a charge being placed against you for that.
Speaker 10 (24:34):
Why why don't you whistle Ainsley? Or is the turkey
in the straw unhappy because he's going to be a
jail bird
M.
Speaker 2 (00:32):
Did they gotta make that one? Did you say?
Speaker 3 (00:34):
No?
Speaker 2 (00:35):
I think I'll be the club's bigger champion this year.
Speaker 4 (00:38):
If you'll play this way, Roger?
Speaker 3 (00:39):
But will I? That's the question.
Speaker 2 (00:41):
Yeah, See if you can make the same shot, I'll silly?
Speaker 4 (00:44):
Can he get I'll try? Didn't look easy and it wasn't.
Speaker 2 (00:52):
If you want to see a hard one wants this.
Speaker 4 (00:55):
Trying to make me feel worse than I do already.
Speaker 5 (00:57):
What I'm trying to do is make myself feel better.
What God, that's what reverse.
Speaker 2 (01:09):
English tests for you. You're no you tried to see
if you know I've had enough?
Speaker 4 (01:13):
Roger?
Speaker 5 (01:14):
Hey, Hey, Sam, nice boys don't throw Q sticks on
the floor.
Speaker 6 (01:19):
I'm sorry I didn't mean to. But no use, Roger,
what's no use?
Speaker 4 (01:24):
I can't stop thinking.
Speaker 7 (01:25):
I can't stop wondering who I was and what I
did before I came to town.
Speaker 2 (01:29):
Look, Sam, you've been talking about that now for ten years.
Speaker 5 (01:33):
Will you cut it out before you give everybody the
creeps and drive yourself crapy?
Speaker 4 (01:36):
I can't. Lately it's been getting worse.
Speaker 7 (01:39):
Listen, I'm Sam Fisher now, but I wasn't before I
lost my memory.
Speaker 4 (01:44):
Roger, don't you understand why I'm so jumpy.
Speaker 7 (01:46):
I came to this city a little over ten years
ago with no memory of who I was, or where
i'd din or what i'd done. I had an accident.
I woke up in Kansas City, and I didn't know
my name. No one did her where I come from.
They just found me in the streets unconscious.
Speaker 2 (01:58):
So what, Sam, everybody knows who you are now. You're
rapidly married man, an important business executive, one of the
city's best dressed men.
Speaker 4 (02:07):
But I've got to know who I was.
Speaker 7 (02:08):
I've got to I'm sorry, Roger, I've I've got to
get out of here.
Speaker 4 (02:12):
This this place is getting on my nerves.
Speaker 1 (02:14):
I'm letta get some mayor, don't go too far away.
Speaker 2 (02:17):
Sam, Oh, hello.
Speaker 4 (02:31):
Missus Fisher.
Speaker 2 (02:32):
Please, Oh, Rita, I didn't recognize your voice. This is Roger.
I'm in the billiard room of the club. Your husband
just walked out on me.
Speaker 8 (02:42):
Oh, it's poor darling, Sam upset.
Speaker 5 (02:44):
Again, upset that obsession is is driving him out of
his mind.
Speaker 2 (02:49):
Yeah, isn't it a shame? Shame it's taken him this
long to begin to crack. Uh pretty soon, Rita, we
can do exactly what.
Speaker 9 (02:59):
We planned, and now on to Nick Calmer as Boston Blackie.
Enemy to those who make him an enemy, friend to
those who have no friend.
Speaker 10 (03:21):
Now, let me get this straight, mister Fisher. You don't
think you're really Sam Fisher?
Speaker 7 (03:26):
No, Blackie, how can I be just the name I
gave myself when I came to after an accident in
Kansas City ten years ago.
Speaker 10 (03:32):
I see, But why did you pick that particular name?
It might have some bearing in your past.
Speaker 3 (03:38):
No, I'm afraid it doesn't.
Speaker 6 (03:40):
You see, I call myself Sam Fisher because my doctor's
name was Sam and he was an excellent Fisher.
Speaker 3 (03:46):
Well takes care of that.
Speaker 10 (03:47):
Tell me this, how much effort have you made to
find out who you were before you became Sam Fisher?
Speaker 3 (03:51):
None? I was afraid to afraid too. Why.
Speaker 4 (03:55):
Well, somewhere in.
Speaker 7 (03:56):
The back of my mind I had a vague memory
that I'd done something wrong.
Speaker 3 (04:00):
But it was just a glimmer of a memory.
Speaker 7 (04:01):
So faint it never took shape, never never gave me
an inkling in my past. But it's always with me,
always harding me, pogging at my conscience.
Speaker 4 (04:09):
Blackie.
Speaker 7 (04:09):
I I just can't stand it my so longer.
Speaker 10 (04:11):
So you want to find out who you were, where
you've been, and what you did before you became.
Speaker 3 (04:15):
Sam Fisher say, I've got to I've.
Speaker 4 (04:17):
Got to know, no matter how terrible the truth.
Speaker 10 (04:18):
Is, mister Fisher. Why are you so convinced that you
did something wrong before you had that accident? Why do
you think that?
Speaker 7 (04:25):
I just think that's all. I can't help it. It's
there in my mind, Blackie. You've helped others. I know
you can help me. I'll give you all your sisters
I can't.
Speaker 10 (04:34):
But how can you help me when your memory stops
with that accident ten years ago?
Speaker 6 (04:39):
Tell you something I've told only to Missus Fisher and
a few of my closest friends.
Speaker 7 (04:43):
It's about a dream I have, fantastic dream that I
have almost every night.
Speaker 3 (04:48):
I excuse me, hello, I'd like to speak to mister Fisher.
Speaker 8 (04:52):
Please, I understand he's there. This is Missus Fisher.
Speaker 3 (04:55):
Oh just a minute, this is your wife, mister Fisher. Oh,
thank you, yes reader.
Speaker 8 (05:00):
Oh Sam, I hope I've called you in time. So
May said you left for Boston, Blackie an hour ago.
How much have you told him?
Speaker 7 (05:06):
Well, not very much of anything. Dear you sound offully
upset what's the matter.
Speaker 8 (05:10):
Well, Roger just owned he's found out something.
Speaker 4 (05:12):
About you before the accident.
Speaker 8 (05:15):
Yes, Sam, and it's awful. Don't tell anybody anything, not
until you've seen Roger.
Speaker 7 (05:19):
He's found out something about me. What what did he
find out?
Speaker 8 (05:22):
I don't want to talk about it over the phone.
Speaker 2 (05:24):
Roger opened. He he's waiting for you at the club.
Speaker 8 (05:26):
Now get down there right away, all.
Speaker 4 (05:27):
Right, dear, I will right away.
Speaker 3 (05:29):
Well that sounded important and encouraging.
Speaker 4 (05:32):
Blackie. I'm sorry, but I'll have to leave, believe, but
you were just about the time.
Speaker 7 (05:36):
Sorry, Blackie, but I can't tell you anything now. I
don't think i'll need your help. I don't think anybody
can help me now.
Speaker 4 (05:53):
So I was right about myself, Roger. I was a
murderer before I lost my memory.
Speaker 2 (05:58):
Well, it isn't positive, saying, there's only an indication that
you were. I'm checking further. Now you get in the
cab and go.
Speaker 3 (06:05):
Home to Reda.
Speaker 4 (06:06):
How can I murder?
Speaker 2 (06:07):
Well, no, I don't know for sure yet, Sam, don't understand.
Speaker 4 (06:10):
When will you know?
Speaker 2 (06:12):
It'll take a little while.
Speaker 5 (06:13):
I want to check slowly and carefully. Here there's a
cab waiting of a stamp. Actually, Roger, let me help
you check up on this thing. No, no, Sam, you'll
stay on it, if not for your own sake for readers.
Speaker 4 (06:25):
Well you you'll let me know your progress, won't you.
Speaker 2 (06:28):
If I make any man, I'll get in the cab,
go on home, and don't worry.
Speaker 3 (06:32):
Don't worry.
Speaker 4 (06:34):
I won't sleep till you find out the truth, Roger,
find it out soon, will you? As soon as I can?
Speaker 10 (06:39):
Night?
Speaker 4 (06:40):
Sam, Night, Roger, Thank you for everything.
Speaker 1 (06:43):
By Sam.
Speaker 2 (06:49):
You're a nice guy. Sam. You'll live a long and
happy life, I imagine, but you'll never be seen again.
Speaker 6 (07:07):
But missus Fisher, the missing Person's Burea can't go out
looking for every man and woman who stays away from.
Speaker 4 (07:13):
Home over night.
Speaker 8 (07:14):
That you don't seem to understand, Martin. My husband's never
done this before, and he was terribly upset last night
when he got into that cab.
Speaker 3 (07:21):
I know something's happened to him. Why are you so sure?
Speaker 8 (07:25):
Because it's something he was afraid of. He thinks he
has amneedia, that he's not really Sam Fisher at all,
but someone else.
Speaker 2 (07:34):
Killer.
Speaker 6 (07:35):
Maybe are you talking about the same Sam Fisher I'm
thinking about.
Speaker 5 (07:39):
Miss Fisher he's a Sam Fisher who was voted one
of the city's best dressed men this year.
Speaker 3 (07:44):
We're talking about the same man, so.
Speaker 8 (07:45):
Then I don't have to describe him before you do.
Speaker 3 (07:48):
Oh no, I know what he looks like.
Speaker 6 (07:50):
We won't be hard to find, missus Fisher. If he's
really missing, which I doubt, but I think he is.
Speaker 4 (07:55):
I know he is.
Speaker 11 (07:56):
He's probably run away or suddenly become the person he
was before he lost his memory.
Speaker 3 (08:01):
Mm, I might be.
Speaker 4 (08:03):
You say he was last scene getting into a cab
in front of his club.
Speaker 8 (08:06):
Yes by Roger Ainsley, a friend of his.
Speaker 3 (08:09):
Uh huh?
Speaker 6 (08:10):
Had had your husband done anything out of the ordinary yesterday?
Speaker 3 (08:15):
Well?
Speaker 8 (08:16):
No, no, but he was especially upset about himself, so
when he went to Boston Blackie for help and finding
out about his past.
Speaker 3 (08:23):
Went to see Boston Blackie. H. Yes, did he see Blackie? Yes?
Speaker 8 (08:27):
I phoned him and he was talking to Blackie.
Speaker 6 (08:29):
Then h I ain't got call Inspector Faraday.
Speaker 3 (08:32):
He might be interested in that.
Speaker 8 (08:34):
Why, Lieutenant, do you think Blackie might have something to
do with my husband's disappearance?
Speaker 3 (08:39):
Well, I don't know, Miss Fisher.
Speaker 6 (08:40):
I'm just checking that angle as possibility. Hello, inspector. There's
Lieutenant Martin over and missing person.
Speaker 1 (08:49):
Oh hello, model, you found anything lately?
Speaker 3 (08:54):
No, we just lost one.
Speaker 4 (08:56):
Yeah, Sam Fisher. Last scene getting into a taxi outside
of the Nicle Club.
Speaker 1 (09:00):
Nicle Club.
Speaker 3 (09:01):
Huh yes, I know that doesn't interest.
Speaker 6 (09:03):
Your Faraday, but this might Fisher was up to see
your friend Blackie the evening he disappeared up to see Blackie.
Speaker 1 (09:10):
Huh. Well, this is more interesting to me than you think.
It ties in with a case. The homicide Department's just
started work on. I can follow you on missing mister
Fisher's track step by step, Martin.
Speaker 3 (09:19):
You can.
Speaker 1 (09:20):
He left Blackie, went to his club, took a taxi
from his club to the waterfront, and then disappeared.
Speaker 12 (09:25):
How do you know he went to the waterfront because
we just found.
Speaker 1 (09:27):
The cabby took the Cabby's report chos. His last stop
was the Arnicle Club.
Speaker 4 (09:31):
The Cabby described Fisher as his passenger.
Speaker 1 (09:34):
The Cabby wasn't in condition to describe anything. He was dead,
strangled with the necktime. And I think I can tie
Boston Blackie into this too.
Speaker 11 (09:51):
All right, you guys, finish with those pictures and let's
cut that body out of here. Maybe you guys like
the salt air at the waterfront. But I get seasick
on a plaque lake, so I'll make it snappy all
the tenor Martin find Leggy.
Speaker 3 (10:05):
Here he is, Yes, here, I am Paraday, And here
you are. Here's a dead body and his where I
solve another case for you?
Speaker 12 (10:11):
I'll hold hum you.
Speaker 1 (10:12):
I know who killed this guy blanking. It was Sam Fisher.
A lovely red and green tire around the cabby's neck
came from around Fisher's neck, only.
Speaker 3 (10:18):
It fits the cabby's neck a little too tightly.
Speaker 1 (10:20):
Yeah, and you know why Fisher killed this cab driver
and where Fisher is now?
Speaker 3 (10:25):
Well do you? But don't you don't?
Speaker 10 (10:27):
I say, by the way, Paraday, keep away from the waterfront,
that you will.
Speaker 3 (10:32):
Wind up mounted on some fisherman's living room wall. And
don't try to get me connected with this. All I
know is Fisher came to me for help last evening.
Speaker 10 (10:40):
He thought he was suffering from amnesia, and he wanted
me to find out who he was before his mind
went blank.
Speaker 3 (10:46):
Anyone else, There's no more else, Paraday. He got a
phone call from his wife.
Speaker 10 (10:51):
And then beat it out of my apartments. I haven't
done anything on the case because I was out with
Merry last.
Speaker 1 (10:55):
Night girl Nyagan guad with her again right now.
Speaker 4 (10:58):
I just wanted to hear his story.
Speaker 1 (11:00):
I know what happened here. Fisher's run away. He killed
his cabby so he couldn't tell.
Speaker 10 (11:04):
Which big way he went. That's a nice theory if
you inspect your children. Remarkable logic. But as usual, it's
wrong because you say so.
Speaker 3 (11:12):
No, because the green and red necktie says so.
Speaker 10 (11:15):
He was found twisted around the cab driver's neck, right, So,
so somebody twisted it around his neck. Chances are somebody
was wearing the necktie, took it off and strangled driver.
Speaker 1 (11:23):
That's right, somebody named Sam Fisher, who.
Speaker 3 (11:26):
With memories serves me was one of the city's best
dressed men.
Speaker 1 (11:30):
What's that got to do with him not killing this
guy here?
Speaker 10 (11:32):
Fisher wouldn't wear a tie like that green and red thing, Faraday,
It's monstrous. He wouldn't be found dead wearing it, much
less use it on somebody else who's found dead.
Speaker 1 (11:41):
Some That's what I like about you, Blackie. You keep
saying that you're always helping me, and the first thing
you do always is complicate things. If Fisher didn't kill
the cab driver who killed him, I don't.
Speaker 10 (11:53):
Know, Furday, But as long as I'd told you who didn't,
I might just as well try to find out who did.
Speaker 9 (12:08):
And now back to Boston, Blackie, wealthy and prominent Sam Fisher,
recovered from an accident ten years ago, but suffered loss
of memory. When his friend Roger Ainsley tells Fisher that
he has made a mild discovery about the years before
the loss of memory, Fisher gets into a cab and
(12:30):
is not seen again, but the cab is found, and
so is.
Speaker 3 (12:34):
The driver, dead strangled with a neck tie.
Speaker 9 (12:38):
As we return to our story Boston, Blackie talks to
the missing man's friend, Roger Ainsley.
Speaker 3 (12:45):
Missus Fisher tells me you're one of her husband's closest friends.
Mister Ainsley man.
Speaker 5 (12:49):
His greatest admirer of Blackie. Oh why shouldn't I be?
I had a little two by four business eight years ago,
and look at my office today thanks to the contacts
I made them.
Speaker 10 (12:58):
Sam Fisher apparently to him, yes, perhaps you canna help
us find him.
Speaker 2 (13:03):
Well, I don't know how he's still missing. And the
cab driver who took him to the waterfront is dead.
Speaker 3 (13:08):
You put Fisher into that cab, didn't you?
Speaker 2 (13:11):
Yes?
Speaker 3 (13:11):
Did you get a good look at the driver?
Speaker 8 (13:13):
No?
Speaker 2 (13:13):
I didn't like it was dark and besides, all cab
drivers look like to me. Did the police really think
Sam kill that Kebby?
Speaker 10 (13:20):
They think so, but I don't. That wasn't Fisher's necktie
found around the cab driver's neck. Wasn't his type of tie,
and it wasn't expensive enough for him.
Speaker 2 (13:29):
Well, I will say Sam had expensive taste and blues.
Speaker 3 (13:31):
And good too. Do you remember what Fisher was wearing
when he got into that cab? Yes, I do.
Speaker 2 (13:37):
A blue double breasted pin striped suit was his newest.
Speaker 3 (13:40):
Yes, Yes, that's right. He wore it up to my place.
And that's further proof Fisher didn't kill that driver.
Speaker 10 (13:47):
He never, never in the world would he wear a
green and red tie with blue, and he wasn't wearing
it when I saw him.
Speaker 3 (13:53):
Well, so much for Sam Fisher's present. What can you
tell me about his past?
Speaker 4 (13:58):
Nothing.
Speaker 5 (13:58):
I've known him moaning since he came to town, and
that was about ten years ago. He never told me
anything about his past because he didn't know anything about
it himself.
Speaker 3 (14:06):
You believe he actually suffered from amnesia.
Speaker 2 (14:08):
I don't know. He told a convincing story, and he
told it often. It's possibly he didn't have amnesia. I'm
sure of that.
Speaker 10 (14:16):
Well, that and the fact that he didn't kill that
cavvy and the only things I'm sure of about this case.
Speaker 3 (14:21):
Thanks for your time, Ainslie.
Speaker 2 (14:23):
Don't mention it.
Speaker 3 (14:24):
Well, I will mention this. You may hear from me again.
Speaker 2 (14:28):
Well, you know where to reach me any time you want.
Speaker 3 (14:31):
Goodbye, Goodbye, m oh I'm sorry, sailor. What's the matter
with your numbers? Can't you steer straight? Course? Sorry? Maybe
I thought I was plowing through mind water.
Speaker 2 (14:48):
Captain John, what are you doing here?
Speaker 6 (14:50):
You don't know, mister Ainsley, Well you got a surprise comment.
Speaker 5 (14:54):
Look, you're a fool to come here Forston Blackie was
just here if he saw you might start putting things together.
Speaker 2 (15:00):
He said you'd stay on your ship until it.
Speaker 12 (15:01):
Pulled out if everything went according to plan, mister rings glad, Well,
didn't it?
Speaker 2 (15:06):
You got your five thousand dollars to take Sam to
China with it, didn't you?
Speaker 10 (15:08):
I did?
Speaker 5 (15:10):
Well, then, what's wrong? I kept my part of the
bargain and I left Sam lying on the wharf with you,
just as I said.
Speaker 3 (15:15):
I would you dare? Then?
Speaker 2 (15:17):
What are you doing here?
Speaker 5 (15:17):
You're fool You realize somebody might get the connection between us,
and and looked, Sam was still there when you came
ashore to get him, wasn't he He didn't come to
and walk.
Speaker 3 (15:27):
Away to me?
Speaker 12 (15:28):
Oh he didn't walk away, He couldn't.
Speaker 4 (15:32):
And he didn't come too. He couldn't do that either.
Speaker 12 (15:36):
And what did you hit him with the broadside of
a foremasted schooner?
Speaker 8 (15:40):
Or no?
Speaker 2 (15:40):
Why what do you mean?
Speaker 4 (15:42):
I mean? Whatever you used? You hit him too hard?
Speaker 8 (15:44):
Why I found him on the wharf?
Speaker 3 (15:46):
He was dead? Dead? No, did die dead? Is the
wind in the sagas the sea.
Speaker 4 (15:53):
But I got rid of the body.
Speaker 2 (15:56):
This wasn't the plans, And it wasn't in my plans
to have to get get rid of a body.
Speaker 4 (16:01):
So I've changed my price.
Speaker 12 (16:04):
Ey, five thousand dollars you give me is just a
down payment.
Speaker 3 (16:08):
For my services.
Speaker 6 (16:09):
Now you better come aboard with five thousand more.
Speaker 2 (16:13):
But I don't have it.
Speaker 3 (16:14):
I don't have it. Eh, you better get it, land Love,
you better get.
Speaker 5 (16:21):
It, reader, Honey, Sam's dead and you're gonna come into
a fortune from his insurance along.
Speaker 8 (16:34):
But I'm gonna be careful how I spend it.
Speaker 5 (16:36):
Roger Darling, all right, pinch every penny of it until
a squeeze if you want it.
Speaker 2 (16:40):
But you gotta give me that five thousand dollars for
Captain Done.
Speaker 8 (16:42):
You kill them, you pay Captain Dunn.
Speaker 2 (16:45):
I don't have it. Besides, I didn't mean to kill
Sammer with an accident. I hit him too hard. You
certainly did.
Speaker 3 (16:51):
Look somebody.
Speaker 2 (16:53):
Would you want to stop you trying to get rid
of me?
Speaker 8 (16:56):
No, I'm not. I'm trying not to get rid of
five thousand dollars.
Speaker 2 (17:02):
Yeah, you're willing to do anything to get rid of sam.
Speaker 5 (17:05):
He thought it was wonderful when I came up with
the idea of telling Sam I knew something about his past,
and then to see that he got lost for good
so it looked like he ran away.
Speaker 8 (17:13):
It was a brilliant plan, Roger, brilliant.
Speaker 2 (17:16):
It was perfect.
Speaker 5 (17:17):
You were even gonna write to him after Captain Dunshang
had him a China. You were gonna tell him that
we were sure he was a murderer, so we know
he'd stay away.
Speaker 8 (17:24):
I was, But I'm not going to have to write
to him. Now you killed him. He's not in the
mood for letters.
Speaker 4 (17:30):
Look weird.
Speaker 2 (17:32):
Give me that five thousand dollars for Captain done. That's
all I ask.
Speaker 8 (17:35):
You killed my husband. That's something I didn't ask.
Speaker 2 (17:38):
All right, Maybe I did kill him, I said, Maybe
I did. I don't know.
Speaker 5 (17:44):
All I know is that I got to the waterfront
before him and his cabin. I did slug him, But
I also know I didn't kill that cab.
Speaker 7 (17:50):
Driver, and.
Speaker 2 (17:52):
I think you did.
Speaker 8 (17:56):
I did.
Speaker 2 (17:56):
Yeah, why, Roger, that's hit.
Speaker 1 (17:59):
You kill that driver.
Speaker 2 (18:00):
Only you and the cab driver knew my plans.
Speaker 5 (18:03):
After all, he was well paid to take the long
way around of the waterfront so I could get there first.
Speaker 2 (18:06):
But you were the only one who knew where that
cab driver would be and when.
Speaker 8 (18:11):
Well, what if I did, I had no reason.
Speaker 2 (18:12):
To kill him.
Speaker 5 (18:12):
Oh no, No, you killed him so we wouldn't tell
that i'd paid him to drive Sam to the wharf.
Speaker 2 (18:19):
You'll kill him so that there'd be a murder involve
in our scheme, and I'd have to keep my mouth
shut forever about it.
Speaker 8 (18:23):
You get out of here yet.
Speaker 2 (18:24):
I won't.
Speaker 5 (18:27):
You knew when that driver would drop your husband off
of the wharf. You waited up the road until the
cab passed, and then you hailed it. The driver and
his cab were found just a little ways up the
road from the wharf where Captain dunfound Sam.
Speaker 8 (18:38):
We had a beautiful imagination, Darling. Too bad it imagines
all the wrong things.
Speaker 5 (18:45):
All right, Go ahead deny it if you want to,
but that won't stop me from getting your money to
keep the words out of Captain Dunn's mouth and us
out of a gam.
Speaker 1 (19:09):
Lesson, blankie, are you trying to make a beach comber
out of me?
Speaker 4 (19:11):
We've boorded two ships in this.
Speaker 3 (19:13):
Dock and there are only three parodies. So come on,
let's get aboard this one and find out what we're
looking for, or go home.
Speaker 1 (19:19):
I don't know why we're looking for anything down here?
Speaker 3 (19:21):
Do I have to tell you all over again?
Speaker 10 (19:23):
We're looking for the ship's captain that came to see
Roger Ainsley this afternoon.
Speaker 1 (19:26):
Yes, so there's bound to be a connection between the
sea captain and Ainsley, because you think there's a connection
between Ainsley and the disappearance of Sam Fisher.
Speaker 3 (19:34):
And the dead cab driver too. Let's not forget him let's.
Speaker 1 (19:37):
Forget to go aboard this ship, and let's remember to
go back uptown too late.
Speaker 3 (19:40):
Inspect. We talked our way right up the gang plank,
and here.
Speaker 1 (19:43):
There's nobody on deck.
Speaker 3 (19:44):
Let's go. Oh, it's bound to be someone aboard. Hello, Hello,
anybody home?
Speaker 4 (19:51):
He?
Speaker 10 (19:51):
Hey?
Speaker 3 (19:52):
Oh's there? That's the man parody, that's the name? Who's
s safternoon?
Speaker 2 (19:56):

Speaker 3 (19:58):
I am captain, gonna talk to you?
Speaker 1 (20:00):
Hey, well, come up, come a quarter question, Franks, Come
steps here, blackie.
Speaker 2 (20:07):
If this is a wild goose chase, come on now fairly.
Speaker 3 (20:10):
Want to board? It should be nautical, if anything more
on a wild gold chase.
Speaker 4 (20:13):
Throw that joke overboard with you and don't let go
free me.
Speaker 10 (20:18):
Well, it's always properly pay a visit to the captain
of the ship when you in find yourself aboard, isn't
it you are the captain?
Speaker 4 (20:25):
Hey, come here?
Speaker 3 (20:28):
I mean I've seen you before.
Speaker 10 (20:30):
You have you bumped into me just outside Roger Ainsley's
off the store this afternoon.
Speaker 3 (20:34):
Oh so.
Speaker 4 (20:37):
You're still still a zigzag course?
Speaker 3 (20:39):
No, from now on I have to go straight to port.
This is Inspect.
Speaker 10 (20:43):
The paraday of the homicide squad. Ah, maybe I'm Boston, Blackie.
I don't think you told us your name done?
Speaker 4 (20:51):
Harve it done? What do you want aboard my ship?
Speaker 3 (20:54):
We'd like to know why you went to see Ansley
this afternoon.
Speaker 4 (20:57):
Personal business? And I suppose you want.
Speaker 12 (21:00):
I want to know why I'm wearing civilian clothes to
go ashore tonight. That's personal business too.
Speaker 3 (21:07):
Anything else, No, but I.
Speaker 10 (21:10):
Wonder if you know a man was killed and another
man disappeared in the vicinity of this wharf last night.
Speaker 4 (21:15):
Yes, I know, I heard it on the right.
Speaker 3 (21:18):
M M. A nice new tie, that captain.
Speaker 4 (21:22):
You got something on your mind, Blackie, that.
Speaker 3 (21:25):
Tie, Captain Dan. The rest of your short clothes were
in the rolled, but the tie is new, brand new.
You didn't leave your old one somewhere, did you? Oh?
Speaker 12 (21:36):
I threw it away.
Speaker 3 (21:37):
You threw it away.
Speaker 10 (21:38):
It flew down the road and wrapped itself around a
camp driver's neck and choked him to death.
Speaker 1 (21:43):
Hey, Blankie, that red and green striped tie would be
okay with the captain's suit, wouldn't.
Speaker 3 (21:46):
It, Yes, Faraday, But it isn't okay with the captain
that we've caught him with his white tie and right
come here. Why right, apparently these guys are big.
Speaker 10 (21:54):
Walk on, you're in this true, captain tramp Parry and
get to a point.
Speaker 3 (22:13):
You all right, Parny a little bruised, we're still here.
How about you present? And then in his slucking chums
are all accounted for.
Speaker 1 (22:22):
There was that table leg that accounted for little mic there.
It's a handy little gadget table leg.
Speaker 10 (22:28):
I got henry boy with an arm, my arm with
a fist on the end of it. And look it
up from the captain. He looks all at sea.
Speaker 8 (22:52):
Oh oh, why don't you stop that?
Speaker 1 (22:55):
All right, miss Fisher, Miss Translin, I'll see you in
my office now.
Speaker 2 (22:58):
Of course, that goer's back and fire.
Speaker 8 (23:03):
Oh stop whistling that turkey.
Speaker 1 (23:04):
In the straw, of course, Come on, come on, well,
what's the verdic expector?
Speaker 2 (23:10):
Faraday?
Speaker 8 (23:11):
I didn't kill anyone, don't you Let Roger say I did?
Speaker 4 (23:13):
He's lying?
Speaker 3 (23:18):
Wou rank him? Shall I tell him the bad news?
Or would you like to him? Well, I'll tell him
this much, Faraday.
Speaker 10 (23:23):
Ainsley, Miss Fisher, we got a confession from Captain Dunn
a moment ago.
Speaker 3 (23:26):
He killed both the cab driver and your husband.
Speaker 8 (23:28):
Missus Fisher, and you know I didn't do it, and
I didn't.
Speaker 10 (23:32):
No, Ainsley, Fisher was very much alive when the Captain
found him on the wharf, unconscious but alive.
Speaker 3 (23:37):
He didn't hit him too hot, that's right.
Speaker 1 (23:40):
Now, here's what happened. Captain Dunn killed the cab driver first.
He waited up the road near the wharf and hailed
a cab after it had been down to the dock
to dropped Fisher.
Speaker 10 (23:51):
The driver brought Fisher to the wharf so that you
could get a slug out of Mainsley. Captain Dunn killed
the cab driver to cover up the murder he was
about to committee. A dead cab driver can't talk about
his last passenger.
Speaker 8 (24:03):
Why did Captain Dunn kill my husband?
Speaker 10 (24:05):
He thought he could get more money from Ainsley. Ainsley
here thought that sam had died from that blow on
the head. Oh, it was a blow from the captain
that killed him.
Speaker 3 (24:13):
Though, So you too ought to be happy. You're not
going to jail for murder. I know I'm happy. Don't
let that become a habit, neither you nor missus Ainsley.
Speaker 8 (24:23):
Isn't the clear why que will do anything?
Speaker 1 (24:26):
Well, of course not all you did was conspired at
the fraud and inje of the person of Sam Fisher,
as a charge being placed against you for that.
Speaker 10 (24:34):
Why why don't you whistle Ainsley? Or is the turkey
in the straw unhappy because he's going to be a
jail bird

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
