The National Broadcasting Company presents the adventures of Sam Spade
Detective Sam Detective Agency. Boo, No, how did you put
(00:21):
swim up to your company? Are nothing at all, sweetheart,
I just happened to have the Taurus lists of handy
Italian phrases before me.
Speaker 2 (00:30):
Your teach never did that too, before that North Beach.
Speaker 1 (00:32):
Never did anybody like adjusted me if but I thought
you said old by Telameo just wanted you to not
buy for a friendly to and some garlic bread and
red wine. But does that explain the knife gash on
my coat? Tweet my old tweet? Now cherup, you see
it was never meant to be swimming they yes, what else?
By now? Your teen feminine instinct should tell you this
(00:53):
is not the social call, wonder girl. As a matter
of fact, I planned to drop by Pesto Pesto with
words and a little something I call view of Fisherman's
Wark from the Water or the Crab Louis Caper Transcribe

of them all in the Adventures of Sam's Fade below.

Ham They fill it in two Bartolomeo Majore copiedl Lieutenant Rossi,
North Beach Division from Samuel's fade license number one three
seven five ninety six subject the crab Bluis Caper. Dear Bartolomeo,
(02:14):
Fisherman's Wharf, as you know, is as changeable as an
Italian winch all smiles and laughter of a Saturday night
with the lights blazing in the Chippino plazzas and the
tourists three deep around the steaming cauldrons outside. But it's
something else again, of an early dawn, dark and lonely
and quiet, except for the mud of engines at the
crab boat snows out into the fog that hang over
the gate. Last night was somewhere in between. The lights
(02:37):
were blinking out as I left my cab and walked
over to your place of business, a gaudily painted building
at the foot of the wharf with a red, yellow
and blue stegn reading Usau Majore Curios Souvenirs waxworks that
mission ten cents o. Who is it? I'm Sam Spade,
(02:57):
Bartolomeo called me. He didn't here fuchs grad with the
end of the war. Look is there anything I can do? Sorry?
Except for Fraski's at the very end. The wharf was
dark now. It seemed early, as if something had interfered
with business as usual and my late customers have been
(03:17):
brushed off a couple hours ahead of time. I picked
through a hole in one of Faski's window shades and
saw why. It looked like the entire population of North
Beach was inside. If everyone is ready, Momento? Was it?
Speaker 5 (03:31):
This? Me?
Speaker 1 (03:32):
As you what he won? I'm Sam Spade by telling
me on majour I sent for me by your senior Spade.
Speaker 6 (03:41):
Ah, but I got that tomorrowski.
Speaker 1 (03:44):
Oh there you are, wondering why you were out here?
Was a matter of thank I am, but telling me,
I thought, I know, I know.
Speaker 6 (03:53):
It's about my son. Louis my son, my only son.
Speaker 5 (03:58):
Oh he's the inside no, nothing inside out in the darkness,
somewhere cold and the loan you well, you mean six
days now they have searched for his body.
Speaker 1 (04:11):
Oh when did it happen?
Speaker 6 (04:13):
One week today, crab on, it's both today, something along.
Speaker 1 (04:18):
When it happened? Your detectives, you strike the point.
Speaker 5 (04:24):
Louis always always a fish alone until this time when Dominictorio,
his friend Dominic, This gathering is assembled in Dominic's on.
You see you mean hearing or something something more than that.
Come listen to that, my body of a sick it's
(04:47):
all prep for fuck.
Speaker 1 (04:49):
You should tell the ticket your temper.
Speaker 2 (04:51):
A fat six year Louis fishing the crab alon each.
Speaker 1 (04:59):
Day is a layo, will close the.
Speaker 2 (05:00):
Break a line and strinking the party. Each day he's
bringing to San Felippe home hockey talking have you anybody?
Until the one fine day Bromarica.
Speaker 1 (05:11):
Hit the goal with Louis for help, help, I'll go,
although we must deal.
Speaker 2 (05:16):
In fact, Domice is spending.
Speaker 1 (05:22):
Kill Louis. Joe is the kill.
Speaker 2 (05:24):
Louis, and you know why because he's the one rod
Lea that's the why.
Speaker 1 (05:31):
See how who is Rosaliah?
Speaker 6 (05:33):
You must have seen her say finally yes with the
readon next week she and my Louis were to be married.
Speaker 1 (05:42):
It's tough. Do you think that's Dominic was in love?
I think nothing.
Speaker 6 (05:47):
Senor two men friends alone in a boat and heavy falcon.
Speaker 1 (05:52):
One of them dies, the.
Speaker 6 (05:54):
Other says it there's an accident. It's not for us
to think or make guesses. Say what am I supposed
to do? In directors of the police s my Louis
die in an accident. In the hearts of his friends,
he was murdered for my sake, for Dominic's, for the
sake of his We must know the truth. For this,
(06:15):
I preferred to employ one who is professional and impartia.
Speaker 1 (06:20):
Come, were going leave me before heaven? I lea once again, Dominica.
How far was the boat from seal rocks? One hundred yards?
I think? Heard the black silence. Let Tomedy tell the story.
(06:43):
Go on. Now, you had dropped the last crab pot
over the side. Then something went wrong with the motor.
Louis told me to look at it. I went below
then and happened. Louis was leaning over the gun. We
untangled a float, and the sea took us by the stern.
We proached. I saw him go over and plunge into
the white water. I brought there a bath. Then for
two hours, I yelled, I circle around, I blew the whistle,
(07:03):
everything and the coastguard came flasky, and I swear it.
That's all I know.
Speaker 2 (07:08):
I never saw enough feeblesshi.
Speaker 1 (07:15):
My brothers. It was your will that I sit here
in judgment of Dominictorio before I go on? Are there
any more questions you'll have to ask him? Are there
any among you who have evidence to offer against him?
So be it. You know as well as I there
(07:37):
is only one verdict here. The charge is dismissed. The
court is adjourned. Everyone was still for a second, like
a big tableau. Ask A, white haired and dignified on
the platform, looking down at Daminik and the rest of them,
all on their feet, now boring holes through them with
(07:59):
their eyes. He was the first to move, turning slowly
walking out through the crowd toward the door, looking tentatively
from face to face, knowing now he hadn't been acquitted
at all. As one by one they turned their backs
on me. I felt terribly sorry for Dominic until he
walked past me, and I got to look at his
face and his eyes in my racket, I see that
look more often than the next guy. I never saw
(08:21):
it any clearer than I did now. It was fear
and hatred and guilt. So I let you talking too,
fasci bout Tolomeo and walk back down to the whart
to the Musseu Zalah. I told you bout Tolomeo is
(08:42):
not here. I've seen bout Telomeo. I want to talk
to you. Sit down. I don't want to sit down.
That's a good girl. It was quite a place to
Musseu I catch all for everything naughticuld you would run
across in sixty odd years of living on the seo
next to it, from a ten foot shot pickled in
from aldehyde to a life sized figure of Captain Kidd,
(09:04):
complete with drawn sword, lace cuffs and treasure chest at
his feet, next to the door. I turned back to Rosalia,
sitting on a rum keg under a flickering hurricane, laughing
the only light in the room. What do you want
of me by telling me? Or wants the truth about
what happened on the.
Speaker 4 (09:17):
Scentfully they're deciding that at the meeting they already did
keep me in Dominique.
Speaker 1 (09:23):
How did they decide dismiss the charges? No evidence, no witnesses.
It was the only thing Fosti could do. You feel better.
Speaker 4 (09:30):
It doesn't bring back my Louis, No, it doesn't.
Speaker 1 (09:34):
Dominic scone free now from both the law and his people.
No vengeance for Louis. Why are you crying when I
came by tonight?
Speaker 4 (09:41):
Haven't either right to cry with my Louis?
Speaker 1 (09:43):
Drop it? Huhm? Why didn't you go to the meeting
afraid to give yourself away?
Speaker 4 (09:47):
I didn't feel like at that song.
Speaker 1 (09:48):
You're a Sicilian Rosalie. Vengeance is pretty important to you.
If you'd love Louis, you'd have been in there screaming
for Dominic's scout.
Speaker 4 (09:55):
You shut your mouth.
Speaker 1 (09:56):
But no, you're sat home crying, not for Louis but
for Dominick. Right, how long it had been going on?
Did you know Dominic was going to kill him when
they put out in the sand?
Speaker 4 (10:05):
Philipe, Why would Dominic kill him?
Speaker 1 (10:07):
Well, that's a stupid question. He's in love with you,
in love with me?
Speaker 4 (10:12):
I in love with me?
Speaker 1 (10:14):
Rap it? You in love with me? Oh? I wish
it were so hu He killed for me?
Speaker 4 (10:21):
Is that what they say? It's all very flattering, very
I love Dominic I've always loved Dominic since I was
a little girl. I threw myself at Dominic.
Speaker 1 (10:32):
I begged him to marry me. That's not easy for
a girl to do, mister spaith. I begged him, and
I promised to work for him, to be his slave.
You know what he did. He laughed and stood upon me.
Speaker 4 (10:46):
And you you stand there, and you tell me that
he murdered for the love of me. He wouldn't walk
across the street.
Speaker 1 (10:53):
All right, all right, take it easy, now, come on,
take it easy.
Speaker 4 (10:56):
So so I do the silly woman thing I promise
myself to Louis. It's a crazy Louis to a madman.
Speaker 1 (11:03):
Crazy.
Speaker 4 (11:03):
You don't believe there, huh. Louis the great, your campione,
the champion of the crab fisherman who dares the fish
right on the breaker line, catches more crab than anyone else.
Louis the fearless.
Speaker 3 (11:15):
Do you know why he's fearless?
Speaker 1 (11:17):
He's too crazy to be afraid. What do you mean?
Speaker 3 (11:19):
He mutters?
Speaker 4 (11:20):
He he talks to himself. The great riches of thousands
of dollars of him and me, Louis the crab fisherman
and me living in the finest house in North Beach?
Speaker 1 (11:30):
When was this last week?
Speaker 4 (11:32):
He went up in Martolomeo's attic one night, and he
came down with a big hunk of his raw wax
from the waxworks Pitrisor. He called it a stupid lump
of wax, and he held it up before me. So
and he says, with a mad gleam in his eye,
from this, Rosalia, from this apacafus, the biggest finest house
you can dream of.
Speaker 1 (11:52):
Here, Look what's captain kid got to do? He put
it in the treasure chest.
Speaker 4 (11:58):
See you will keep this, It's his secret, Rosaliel, He says,
if you love me, and he laughs to get like
a madman, me love Louis majority I hated it.
Speaker 1 (12:14):
Was too good to be phoning. The triangle notion had
to go. You could hardly blame Rosaliah for thinking he
was crazy, and the treasure chest was a hunk of tallow,
not a very freshhrunk at that, and Louis's routine with
it must have hit her like the graveyard scene from Hamlet. Therefore,
having no theory, nor evidence nor witnesses, I also had
no motive. As always in situations like this, I did
(12:35):
the sensible thing. I went home and went to bed,
all right, I thought, I went to bed. Hello Spade, Yeah,
I got a tip for you. I don't find yourself
a nice, dirty divorce case somewhere and stay out of
North Beach. Well this almost sounds like a threat, all
that advice. There's one hundred bucks in the mail for you.
You'll get it this morning, plus a bride i'd give.
(12:56):
Can I keep it if I don't play? If you
don't play, you won't need it. Hm. I suppose it's
useless to ask who this is? Louis Majury? Say that again?
Lowis Majury? Shall I spell it? You might explain it.
You talk to Rosalia, figure it out for yourself. Sure, sure,
so she never loved you and you knew it. So
you go over the side when the comber hit swim Ashore,
(13:17):
then discover they think you're dead and decide to leave
it that way rather than go through with a wedding.
You got it, I got more. So life without Rosalia
and North Beach is impossible. You can't face the shame
and loose talk that goes with a busted wedding. So
you're going over the hill and find a new life
for yourself. Wait a minute, space, Oh there's more. There's more.
So you're tossing over a car, a bank account, a
boat worth seven thousand dollars, walking out on your old man,
(13:39):
to say nothing of three years apprenticeship and six years
of hard work to get where you are. I understand perfectly,
and you're being a little insulling. I make a lot
of mind though with my big flat feet, but I
do make some of it with my head. I'll try again.
You don't believe on Louis Majury. That is the general idea,
and it might surprise you to know that five minutes
ago I was ready to chuck the whole andy pasto.
(14:00):
Now I'm back in with both feet, but with a
music box nothing. Tell me? Would you know Louis if
you saw him? I've seen his picture. Fine, I guess
I ought to prove it to you. If I satisfy,
I'm Louie Majory. Whill you stay home? Scott Out's on it?
Now where do we prove it? You know? Costellani's growd
up half way out in the wharf yacht. There's a
(14:21):
ramp running around behind it. I'll see you there in
a half hour. I know just what you're going to
say by telling me. Oh, but I didn't go alone.
Roscoe was right there with me with his safety art.
It was a kind of spot San Francisco puts on
once a year for the tourists, just to nail down
(14:43):
its position as runner up to London. I had to
feel my way along the row of dark chowderhouses to Castellanies.
Except for the fog horn and the lapping of the
water below, there wasn't a sound. The only cheerful thing
in the picture was Roscoe, who was now out of
my pocket. At the reddit, I eased up to the
corner of Castellanies. There was an alley between it and
the next building leading around on the ramp over the
(15:03):
water stay. I could see the grow of his cigarette first.
Then I made him out in a slouch hat and overcoat.
He was standing at the rail stay right here. Well satisfied, now,
I'll let you know. I moved out from the side
of the building and walked toward him. He must have
(15:24):
known about Roscoe, because he didn't move, just let me
come right up next to him. I was stupid, sure,
but it wouldn't have worked for him except for the fog.
Two feet away, I saw what I thought was Louis
was a booby trap. The hat and overcoat were slung
over a piling, with a burning cigarette on the rail
next to one of his sleeves. I rolled the one
big dumped in time. The knife slashed through the petting
on my left shoulder, and he was on me. Rasco
went in the drink and I took on the arm
(15:45):
with a knife with my two hands thirty two teeth,
unhappily overlooking a spare foot he knew what to do with.
I went through the railing like an as silent version
of the sea wolf, arriving thus in the limpid and
soothing waters of San Francisco Bay. At the moment, I
was not sorrd. You are listening to the weekly adventure
(16:09):
of radio's most famous detective, Sam Spade. Three Chimes Mean
Good Times on NBC Sunday. Theater Guild on the Air
(16:32):
presents one of the greatest dramatic undertakings in the history
of radio. It's a full hour and a half adaptation
of Shakespeare's masterpiece Hamlet. The immortal lines and matchless beauty
of Hamlet come to life. Sunday with John gielgud Drothy
McGuire and Pamela Brown in Theater Guild on the air,
and a reminder this Sunday also means another gala broadcast
(16:54):
of the Big Show. And now back to the crab
Louie Caper, the night's adventure with Sam's bay. Wetting my
(17:16):
finger and holding it up in the wind, I quickly
determined where North was, and Justice quickly decided there was
no percentage in swimming the Golden Gate. A bright blur
on my starboard Bow called him on the old saying,
where there's a light, there's light. So I headed there
three strokes this side of exhaustion. I pulled up at
what proved to be a landing with a Jacob's ladder
at the top of which I found a rear entrance
to FoST Gate's, or more accurately, Foski's private office. The
(17:39):
door was open. I'm Sam Spade. I've been swimming. If
you're wondering what got a mail told me about you.
He didn't say you were crazy. Now, maybe he didn't know.
You wouldn't have a brandy lying around loose? Would you?
Sure she don't? Thanks? I think I saw Louis that night,
louis impossible behind Castellanes, he brush you Foski who hit
(18:07):
me again with him? But wis call me up? Said
he'd meet me there, just try to knife me. But
it's impossible, is it? Why would he play tag and
why would he trying to kill you? Maybe he's crazy?
How do you mean you've heard of the dear old
lady who had the trunk full of pancakes, haven't you?
Louise saves old tallow Captain Kidd's treasure chested to me,
(18:28):
SAYO is full of it? Who told you this? Rosaliah
showed it to me? May I help you? Thanks? Might
be a glad here to call another meeting and tell
the people make it easier for dominic funny. That was
the whole meeting here, I alone, Dad, it is guid
good thing they made you the judge. Or he might
be six feet under by now. Got a cigarette in
(18:50):
the bucks they're next to the phone. Thanks. Yeah, I
went right along with him too. Shows how wrong you
can be when you went word, when you uh and
you go buy emotions and not by evidence. This is
quite a cigarette box. It stops when you put it down.
Well I suppose now you'll drop your resign. Sure, sure,
(19:15):
I'm a detective, not a psychiatrist. You've got a lunatic
running around, that's your problem. Good night, Fosky, and thanks
for the Brandy. If Rosco had been along, I might
have played it differently. But when you're sitting across a
coffee table from a guy who suddenly realized has the
wet cement already, you do what I did. Make polite
noises and concentrate on getting out on two feet. He
(19:38):
was seven to three. Dominic was stashed in a handy closet,
listening to the whole thing, which was handy since the
next obvious move was his room in a house on
Jefferson Street, a rooming house owned and operated by a
four cassage Bosom type lady known as Mama Luca. Nothing nothing,
you're scared, Mama. Did Dominic threaten you? No? No, don't look.
Look he killed Louis MAJORI I gotta know why.
Speaker 4 (20:01):
I don't know, right, I don't know nothing about it.
Speaker 1 (20:03):
Louis came here, yes, yes.
Speaker 4 (20:06):
Louis came here the night before that.
Speaker 1 (20:08):
Why, I don't know.
Speaker 4 (20:09):
He was all excited. A handful of wax.
Speaker 1 (20:12):
Wax, you know, what about it?
Speaker 4 (20:14):
He sure to Dominique, and they go into his room
and talk, and then he ran off to send the
telegram Telegraph office.
Speaker 1 (20:21):
Huh, well, since it's official business, I can let you
read the office copy. Yeah. Here, this message just came
in tonight, Dominictorio, regarding your inquiry analysis of samples sent
here by Louis Marjorie, highly promising if quality uniform and
wait correct? What estimate value? Minimum? Sixty thousand dollars partly
(20:42):
associates Vancouver, BC. A lump of smelly stuff that looked
like old tallow picked out of the ocean and worth
sixty thousand dollars with a strong enough cu for even
stupid Sam to pick up. I left the telegraph office
on the double and pulled up at them Usayo Major
ten minutes later blasted, fuck is Jim. He was too
(21:11):
busy to notice. Man, I slid a Marlin spank out
of a rack next to the rum keg lock must
be lucked. I hate to do this fast game. Wait
a minute, way, the next post you'll hear will be
the nurse with a breakfast tray a toll of mill
What you look?
Speaker 3 (21:32):
What?
Speaker 1 (21:33):
What have you were done? His honor was playing Pandora
with Captain Kidd's treasury man. Why who is husky surprised? Firscue?
Why would he he? Of old people? He likes a
buck as well as the next one, possibly even more
when there are sixty eight thousand of them, sixty thousand dollars? Yeah,
he is? He mad like a fox. Here, let me
(21:55):
pry this cover off there?
Speaker 5 (22:01):
What is this?
Speaker 1 (22:02):
It may not look like much to you and me,
but to a perfume manufacturer, it's prettier than the venus
than Milo cadd Loo amburgers. That's what happens when a
whale gets a tummy ache. Louis must have run on
to it ten days ago, six dollars. Yeah, that's the
big why of it. By telling Mayo, what now you think? First,
you won't talk, neither will Dominic. They're next and may
(22:23):
know it still two men alone in a fog and
our boat. See there were only a witness. There was
a witness. Mm.
Speaker 6 (22:31):
The eye of God was on Dominique when they did it.
The judgment of God is swift and the sure dominics it.
Speaker 1 (22:38):
Do you think so I know? Dominic? Why do you ask?
There's a way to find out what time? Is it
a best one? There's time? Where do you keep your
razor racer? Yeah, I'm going to shave Captain Kidd, which
I did, finishing around two am. During the next three
(22:58):
hours I got wet, cold and sea sick and the
order name, but made it back to the Musseau in
time for a couple of stiff horns that Grappa before
you and I hustled down to the wharf where Dominic
was picking up bait for his crabnets by bank. Huh oh,
but Colo Nail and the Senor spe I remember, mister Spath. Yeah,
last night in back of Castellans. I don't know what
(23:20):
you're talking about. Sure, Dominic, it's all a horrible mistake.
Play you off me, will you? Herbert Posky said, didn't you?
They drop the charges on innocent, They cleared me. That's
just why we're here.
Speaker 6 (23:29):
We want to make it up with you.
Speaker 1 (23:30):
That boy, what's in your mind? You did? Louis a
great favorite Dominic. When he's thirty two crab pots got
too much for them to handle. You went along to
help him. Today, we're going along to help you. How
when do we cast off? There's a float up ahead
(23:51):
what color yellow and red? Is that yours? Dominic? That's mine? Great?
Great pull up alongside? Well, what's this? All of five?
I told you, Dominic, relyant, what are you trying to do?
Break me downy he's dead in an accident. Heard, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
forget it, Dominic, forget it. We love you like a brother.
I call the truth. I told the truth. What are
you trying to do? Torture me? Is that what you
(24:11):
want to bend? The murder is another hens?
Speaker 5 (24:14):
No, what.
Speaker 1 (24:17):
You mean?
Speaker 6 (24:18):
There is always one witness, isn't that, Dominique?
Speaker 1 (24:22):
Oh that's what you mean? Is that why you came
to tell me that that's a good one? Hold the
wheel spayed, I'll bake my net. I'll spit in your eye,
one say, old man, one day, when you get smart,
you in a whole lousy war. Both watched him, thet
playing at paddling to himself like a little kid whistling
(24:45):
in the dark. He was a lousy actor, pale under
your son, burn and benched with I won't let you
fake oil by a coin. Then it began to come
slower and naked. Stick When I can improve it in
the cord, I'll so get the plea, Hey, what's thematic here?
What's pulling on this line? Maybe it's your conscience, Dominique,
it's heavys what the lord's moves in strange wish.
Speaker 3 (25:10):
Hick, you get it up.
Speaker 1 (25:12):
Let me help you here we go fun too, he.
Speaker 6 (25:19):
Go for me, Let me go.
Speaker 1 (25:31):
I haul Louis up onto the deck and the grisly
sight he was too for a knife still sticking in
his back. I figured that that was where Dominic would
put it, and I was right. Not that it mattered,
because Dominic wasn't thinking logically From the moment he saw
Louis's body tangled in his crab line. He sang us
all fifty verses then and there, and repeated them for
the police, demarger for later when we got them to
the headquarters. It looks like a first degree rap for
(25:53):
both him and Fusky, but I'm waiting till it happens
before telling him the corpse was Captain Kidd minus beard
and ruffles. Period end of report.
Speaker 4 (26:02):
Damn again and again I rediscovery, and each time a
new facet, a new thrill.
Speaker 1 (26:08):
You're just one, It's true, true, but it pleases me
to hear it from you. F and so I propose
to reward you in a fitting manner. First back salary
tut a carburetor for your wash you'rette and second back
salary ten free tickets to the Musue MAJORI. Third back
salary an invitation to accompany me your employer, the browse
upon two bowls of cheppano tonight at Castellani's, and four
(26:32):

Never did anybody like adjusted me if but I thought
you said old by Telameo just wanted you to not
buy for a friendly to and some garlic bread and
red wine. But does that explain the knife gash on
my coat? Tweet my old tweet? Now cherup, you see
it was never meant to be swimming they yes, what else?
By now? Your teen feminine instinct should tell you this

(02:14):
Fisherman's Wharf, as you know, is as changeable as an
Italian winch all smiles and laughter of a Saturday night
with the lights blazing in the Chippino plazzas and the
tourists three deep around the steaming cauldrons outside. But it's
something else again, of an early dawn, dark and lonely
and quiet, except for the mud of engines at the
crab boat snows out into the fog that hang over
the gate. Last night was somewhere in between. The lights
(02:37):
were blinking out as I left my cab and walked
over to your place of business, a gaudily painted building
at the foot of the wharf with a red, yellow
and blue stegn reading Usau Majore Curios Souvenirs waxworks that
mission ten cents o. Who is it? I'm Sam Spade,
(02:57):
Bartolomeo called me. He didn't here fuchs grad with the
end of the war. Look is there anything I can do? Sorry?
Except for Fraski's at the very end. The wharf was
dark now. It seemed early, as if something had interfered
with business as usual and my late customers have been
(03:17):
brushed off a couple hours ahead of time. I picked
through a hole in one of Faski's window shades and
saw why. It looked like the entire population of North
Beach was inside. If everyone is ready, Momento? Was it?
Speaker 5 (03:31):
This? Me?
Speaker 1 (03:32):
As you what he won? I'm Sam Spade by telling
me on majour I sent for me by your senior Spade.
Speaker 6 (03:41):
Ah, but I got that tomorrowski.
Speaker 1 (03:44):
Oh there you are, wondering why you were out here?
Was a matter of thank I am, but telling me,
I thought, I know, I know.
Speaker 6 (03:53):
It's about my son. Louis my son, my only son.
Speaker 5 (03:58):
Oh he's the inside no, nothing inside out in the darkness,
somewhere cold and the loan you well, you mean six
days now they have searched for his body.
Speaker 1 (04:11):
Oh when did it happen?
Speaker 6 (04:13):
One week today, crab on, it's both today, something along.
Speaker 1 (04:18):
When it happened? Your detectives, you strike the point.
Speaker 5 (04:24):
Louis always always a fish alone until this time when Dominictorio,
his friend Dominic, This gathering is assembled in Dominic's on.
You see you mean hearing or something something more than that.
Come listen to that, my body of a sick it's
(04:47):
all prep for fuck.
Speaker 1 (04:49):
You should tell the ticket your temper.
Speaker 2 (04:51):
A fat six year Louis fishing the crab alon each.

Speaker 2 (05:00):
Break a line and strinking the party. Each day he's
bringing to San Felippe home hockey talking have you anybody?
Until the one fine day Bromarica.
Speaker 1 (05:11):
Hit the goal with Louis for help, help, I'll go,
although we must deal.
Speaker 2 (05:16):
In fact, Domice is spending.
Speaker 1 (05:22):
Kill Louis. Joe is the kill.
Speaker 2 (05:24):
Louis, and you know why because he's the one rod
Lea that's the why.
Speaker 1 (05:31):
See how who is Rosaliah?
Speaker 6 (05:33):
You must have seen her say finally yes with the
readon next week she and my Louis were to be married.
Speaker 1 (05:42):
It's tough. Do you think that's Dominic was in love?
I think nothing.
Speaker 6 (05:47):
Senor two men friends alone in a boat and heavy falcon.
Speaker 1 (05:52):
One of them dies, the.
Speaker 6 (05:54):
Other says it there's an accident. It's not for us
to think or make guesses. Say what am I supposed
to do? In directors of the police s my Louis
die in an accident. In the hearts of his friends,
he was murdered for my sake, for Dominic's, for the
sake of his We must know the truth. For this,
(06:15):
I preferred to employ one who is professional and impartia.
Speaker 1 (06:20):
Come, were going leave me before heaven? I lea once again, Dominica.
How far was the boat from seal rocks? One hundred yards?
I think? Heard the black silence. Let Tomedy tell the story.
(06:43):
Go on. Now, you had dropped the last crab pot
over the side. Then something went wrong with the motor.
Louis told me to look at it. I went below
then and happened. Louis was leaning over the gun. We
untangled a float, and the sea took us by the stern.
We proached. I saw him go over and plunge into
the white water. I brought there a bath. Then for
two hours, I yelled, I circle around, I blew the whistle,
(07:03):
everything and the coastguard came flasky, and I swear it.
That's all I know.
Speaker 2 (07:08):
I never saw enough feeblesshi.
Speaker 1 (07:15):
My brothers. It was your will that I sit here
in judgment of Dominictorio before I go on? Are there
any more questions you'll have to ask him? Are there
any among you who have evidence to offer against him?
So be it. You know as well as I there
(07:37):
is only one verdict here. The charge is dismissed. The
court is adjourned. Everyone was still for a second, like
a big tableau. Ask A, white haired and dignified on
the platform, looking down at Daminik and the rest of them,
all on their feet, now boring holes through them with
(07:59):
their eyes. He was the first to move, turning slowly
walking out through the crowd toward the door, looking tentatively
from face to face, knowing now he hadn't been acquitted
at all. As one by one they turned their backs
on me. I felt terribly sorry for Dominic until he
walked past me, and I got to look at his
face and his eyes in my racket, I see that
look more often than the next guy. I never saw
(08:21):
it any clearer than I did now. It was fear
and hatred and guilt. So I let you talking too,
fasci bout Tolomeo and walk back down to the whart
to the Musseu Zalah. I told you bout Tolomeo is
(08:42):
not here. I've seen bout Telomeo. I want to talk
to you. Sit down. I don't want to sit down.
That's a good girl. It was quite a place to
Musseu I catch all for everything naughticuld you would run
across in sixty odd years of living on the seo
next to it, from a ten foot shot pickled in
from aldehyde to a life sized figure of Captain Kidd,
(09:04):
complete with drawn sword, lace cuffs and treasure chest at
his feet, next to the door. I turned back to Rosalia,
sitting on a rum keg under a flickering hurricane, laughing
the only light in the room. What do you want
of me by telling me? Or wants the truth about
what happened on the.
Speaker 4 (09:17):
Scentfully they're deciding that at the meeting they already did
keep me in Dominique.
Speaker 1 (09:23):
How did they decide dismiss the charges? No evidence, no witnesses.
It was the only thing Fosti could do. You feel better.
Speaker 4 (09:30):
It doesn't bring back my Louis, No, it doesn't.
Speaker 1 (09:34):
Dominic scone free now from both the law and his people.
No vengeance for Louis. Why are you crying when I
came by tonight?
Speaker 4 (09:41):
Haven't either right to cry with my Louis?
Speaker 1 (09:43):
Drop it? Huhm? Why didn't you go to the meeting
afraid to give yourself away?
Speaker 4 (09:47):
I didn't feel like at that song.
Speaker 1 (09:48):
You're a Sicilian Rosalie. Vengeance is pretty important to you.
If you'd love Louis, you'd have been in there screaming
for Dominic's scout.
Speaker 4 (09:55):
You shut your mouth.
Speaker 1 (09:56):
But no, you're sat home crying, not for Louis but
for Dominick. Right, how long it had been going on?
Did you know Dominic was going to kill him when
they put out in the sand?
Speaker 4 (10:05):
Philipe, Why would Dominic kill him?
Speaker 1 (10:07):
Well, that's a stupid question. He's in love with you,
in love with me?
Speaker 4 (10:12):
I in love with me?
Speaker 1 (10:14):
Rap it? You in love with me? Oh? I wish
it were so hu He killed for me?
Speaker 4 (10:21):
Is that what they say? It's all very flattering, very
I love Dominic I've always loved Dominic since I was
a little girl. I threw myself at Dominic.
Speaker 1 (10:32):
I begged him to marry me. That's not easy for
a girl to do, mister spaith. I begged him, and
I promised to work for him, to be his slave.
You know what he did. He laughed and stood upon me.
Speaker 4 (10:46):
And you you stand there, and you tell me that
he murdered for the love of me. He wouldn't walk
across the street.
Speaker 1 (10:53):
All right, all right, take it easy, now, come on,
take it easy.
Speaker 4 (10:56):
So so I do the silly woman thing I promise
myself to Louis. It's a crazy Louis to a madman.
Speaker 1 (11:03):
Crazy.
Speaker 4 (11:03):
You don't believe there, huh. Louis the great, your campione,
the champion of the crab fisherman who dares the fish
right on the breaker line, catches more crab than anyone else.
Louis the fearless.
Speaker 3 (11:15):
Do you know why he's fearless?
Speaker 1 (11:17):
He's too crazy to be afraid. What do you mean?
Speaker 3 (11:19):
He mutters?
Speaker 4 (11:20):
He he talks to himself. The great riches of thousands
of dollars of him and me, Louis the crab fisherman
and me living in the finest house in North Beach?
Speaker 1 (11:30):
When was this last week?
Speaker 4 (11:32):
He went up in Martolomeo's attic one night, and he
came down with a big hunk of his raw wax
from the waxworks Pitrisor. He called it a stupid lump
of wax, and he held it up before me. So
and he says, with a mad gleam in his eye,
from this, Rosalia, from this apacafus, the biggest finest house
you can dream of.
Speaker 1 (11:52):
Here, Look what's captain kid got to do? He put
it in the treasure chest.
Speaker 4 (11:58):
See you will keep this, It's his secret, Rosaliel, He says,
if you love me, and he laughs to get like
a madman, me love Louis majority I hated it.
Speaker 1 (12:14):
Was too good to be phoning. The triangle notion had
to go. You could hardly blame Rosaliah for thinking he
was crazy, and the treasure chest was a hunk of tallow,
not a very freshhrunk at that, and Louis's routine with
it must have hit her like the graveyard scene from Hamlet. Therefore,
having no theory, nor evidence nor witnesses, I also had
no motive. As always in situations like this, I did
(12:35):
the sensible thing. I went home and went to bed,
all right, I thought, I went to bed. Hello Spade, Yeah,
I got a tip for you. I don't find yourself
a nice, dirty divorce case somewhere and stay out of
North Beach. Well this almost sounds like a threat, all
that advice. There's one hundred bucks in the mail for you.
You'll get it this morning, plus a bride i'd give.
(12:56):
Can I keep it if I don't play? If you
don't play, you won't need it. Hm. I suppose it's
useless to ask who this is? Louis Majury? Say that again?
Lowis Majury? Shall I spell it? You might explain it.
You talk to Rosalia, figure it out for yourself. Sure, sure,
so she never loved you and you knew it. So
you go over the side when the comber hit swim Ashore,
(13:17):
then discover they think you're dead and decide to leave
it that way rather than go through with a wedding.
You got it, I got more. So life without Rosalia
and North Beach is impossible. You can't face the shame
and loose talk that goes with a busted wedding. So
you're going over the hill and find a new life
for yourself. Wait a minute, space, Oh there's more. There's more.
So you're tossing over a car, a bank account, a
boat worth seven thousand dollars, walking out on your old man,
(13:39):
to say nothing of three years apprenticeship and six years
of hard work to get where you are. I understand perfectly,
and you're being a little insulling. I make a lot
of mind though with my big flat feet, but I
do make some of it with my head. I'll try again.
You don't believe on Louis Majury. That is the general idea,
and it might surprise you to know that five minutes
ago I was ready to chuck the whole andy pasto.
(14:00):
Now I'm back in with both feet, but with a
music box nothing. Tell me? Would you know Louis if
you saw him? I've seen his picture. Fine, I guess
I ought to prove it to you. If I satisfy,
I'm Louie Majory. Whill you stay home? Scott Out's on it?
Now where do we prove it? You know? Costellani's growd
up half way out in the wharf yacht. There's a
(14:21):
ramp running around behind it. I'll see you there in
a half hour. I know just what you're going to
say by telling me. Oh, but I didn't go alone.
Roscoe was right there with me with his safety art.
It was a kind of spot San Francisco puts on
once a year for the tourists, just to nail down
(14:43):
its position as runner up to London. I had to
feel my way along the row of dark chowderhouses to Castellanies.
Except for the fog horn and the lapping of the
water below, there wasn't a sound. The only cheerful thing
in the picture was Roscoe, who was now out of
my pocket. At the reddit, I eased up to the
corner of Castellanies. There was an alley between it and
the next building leading around on the ramp over the
(15:03):
water stay. I could see the grow of his cigarette first.
Then I made him out in a slouch hat and overcoat.
He was standing at the rail stay right here. Well satisfied, now,
I'll let you know. I moved out from the side
of the building and walked toward him. He must have
(15:24):
known about Roscoe, because he didn't move, just let me
come right up next to him. I was stupid, sure,
but it wouldn't have worked for him except for the fog.
Two feet away, I saw what I thought was Louis
was a booby trap. The hat and overcoat were slung
over a piling, with a burning cigarette on the rail
next to one of his sleeves. I rolled the one
big dumped in time. The knife slashed through the petting
on my left shoulder, and he was on me. Rasco
went in the drink and I took on the arm
(15:45):
with a knife with my two hands thirty two teeth,
unhappily overlooking a spare foot he knew what to do with.
I went through the railing like an as silent version
of the sea wolf, arriving thus in the limpid and
soothing waters of San Francisco Bay. At the moment, I
was not sorrd. You are listening to the weekly adventure
(16:09):
of radio's most famous detective, Sam Spade. Three Chimes Mean
Good Times on NBC Sunday. Theater Guild on the Air
(16:32):
presents one of the greatest dramatic undertakings in the history
of radio. It's a full hour and a half adaptation
of Shakespeare's masterpiece Hamlet. The immortal lines and matchless beauty
of Hamlet come to life. Sunday with John gielgud Drothy
McGuire and Pamela Brown in Theater Guild on the air,
and a reminder this Sunday also means another gala broadcast
(16:54):
of the Big Show. And now back to the crab
Louie Caper, the night's adventure with Sam's bay. Wetting my
(17:16):
finger and holding it up in the wind, I quickly
determined where North was, and Justice quickly decided there was
no percentage in swimming the Golden Gate. A bright blur
on my starboard Bow called him on the old saying,
where there's a light, there's light. So I headed there
three strokes this side of exhaustion. I pulled up at
what proved to be a landing with a Jacob's ladder
at the top of which I found a rear entrance
to FoST Gate's, or more accurately, Foski's private office. The
(17:39):
door was open. I'm Sam Spade. I've been swimming. If
you're wondering what got a mail told me about you.
He didn't say you were crazy. Now, maybe he didn't know.
You wouldn't have a brandy lying around loose? Would you?
Sure she don't? Thanks? I think I saw Louis that night,
louis impossible behind Castellanes, he brush you Foski who hit
(18:07):
me again with him? But wis call me up? Said
he'd meet me there, just try to knife me. But
it's impossible, is it? Why would he play tag and
why would he trying to kill you? Maybe he's crazy?
How do you mean you've heard of the dear old
lady who had the trunk full of pancakes, haven't you?
Louise saves old tallow Captain Kidd's treasure chested to me,
(18:28):
SAYO is full of it? Who told you this? Rosaliah
showed it to me? May I help you? Thanks? Might
be a glad here to call another meeting and tell
the people make it easier for dominic funny. That was
the whole meeting here, I alone, Dad, it is guid
good thing they made you the judge. Or he might
be six feet under by now. Got a cigarette in
(18:50):
the bucks they're next to the phone. Thanks. Yeah, I
went right along with him too. Shows how wrong you
can be when you went word, when you uh and
you go buy emotions and not by evidence. This is
quite a cigarette box. It stops when you put it down.
Well I suppose now you'll drop your resign. Sure, sure,
(19:15):
I'm a detective, not a psychiatrist. You've got a lunatic
running around, that's your problem. Good night, Fosky, and thanks
for the Brandy. If Rosco had been along, I might
have played it differently. But when you're sitting across a
coffee table from a guy who suddenly realized has the
wet cement already, you do what I did. Make polite
noises and concentrate on getting out on two feet. He
(19:38):
was seven to three. Dominic was stashed in a handy closet,
listening to the whole thing, which was handy since the
next obvious move was his room in a house on
Jefferson Street, a rooming house owned and operated by a
four cassage Bosom type lady known as Mama Luca. Nothing nothing,
you're scared, Mama. Did Dominic threaten you? No? No, don't look.
Look he killed Louis MAJORI I gotta know why.
Speaker 4 (20:01):
I don't know, right, I don't know nothing about it.
Speaker 1 (20:03):
Louis came here, yes, yes.
Speaker 4 (20:06):
Louis came here the night before that.
Speaker 1 (20:08):
Why, I don't know.
Speaker 4 (20:09):
He was all excited. A handful of wax.
Speaker 1 (20:12):
Wax, you know, what about it?
Speaker 4 (20:14):
He sure to Dominique, and they go into his room
and talk, and then he ran off to send the
telegram Telegraph office.
Speaker 1 (20:21):
Huh, well, since it's official business, I can let you
read the office copy. Yeah. Here, this message just came
in tonight, Dominictorio, regarding your inquiry analysis of samples sent
here by Louis Marjorie, highly promising if quality uniform and
wait correct? What estimate value? Minimum? Sixty thousand dollars partly
(20:42):
associates Vancouver, BC. A lump of smelly stuff that looked
like old tallow picked out of the ocean and worth
sixty thousand dollars with a strong enough cu for even
stupid Sam to pick up. I left the telegraph office
on the double and pulled up at them Usayo Major
ten minutes later blasted, fuck is Jim. He was too
(21:11):
busy to notice. Man, I slid a Marlin spank out
of a rack next to the rum keg lock must
be lucked. I hate to do this fast game. Wait
a minute, way, the next post you'll hear will be
the nurse with a breakfast tray a toll of mill
What you look?
Speaker 3 (21:32):
What?
Speaker 1 (21:33):
What have you were done? His honor was playing Pandora
with Captain Kidd's treasury man. Why who is husky surprised? Firscue?
Why would he he? Of old people? He likes a
buck as well as the next one, possibly even more
when there are sixty eight thousand of them, sixty thousand dollars? Yeah,
he is? He mad like a fox. Here, let me
(21:55):
pry this cover off there?
Speaker 5 (22:01):
What is this?
Speaker 1 (22:02):
It may not look like much to you and me,
but to a perfume manufacturer, it's prettier than the venus
than Milo cadd Loo amburgers. That's what happens when a
whale gets a tummy ache. Louis must have run on
to it ten days ago, six dollars. Yeah, that's the
big why of it. By telling Mayo, what now you think? First,
you won't talk, neither will Dominic. They're next and may
(22:23):
know it still two men alone in a fog and
our boat. See there were only a witness. There was
a witness. Mm.
Speaker 6 (22:31):
The eye of God was on Dominique when they did it.
The judgment of God is swift and the sure dominics it.
Speaker 1 (22:38):
Do you think so I know? Dominic? Why do you ask?
There's a way to find out what time? Is it
a best one? There's time? Where do you keep your
razor racer? Yeah, I'm going to shave Captain Kidd, which
I did, finishing around two am. During the next three
(22:58):
hours I got wet, cold and sea sick and the
order name, but made it back to the Musseau in
time for a couple of stiff horns that Grappa before
you and I hustled down to the wharf where Dominic
was picking up bait for his crabnets by bank. Huh oh,
but Colo Nail and the Senor spe I remember, mister Spath. Yeah,
last night in back of Castellans. I don't know what
(23:20):
you're talking about. Sure, Dominic, it's all a horrible mistake.
Play you off me, will you? Herbert Posky said, didn't you?
They drop the charges on innocent, They cleared me. That's
just why we're here.
Speaker 6 (23:29):
We want to make it up with you.
Speaker 1 (23:30):
That boy, what's in your mind? You did? Louis a
great favorite Dominic. When he's thirty two crab pots got
too much for them to handle. You went along to
help him. Today, we're going along to help you. How
when do we cast off? There's a float up ahead
(23:51):
what color yellow and red? Is that yours? Dominic? That's mine? Great?
Great pull up alongside? Well, what's this? All of five?
I told you, Dominic, relyant, what are you trying to do?
Break me downy he's dead in an accident. Heard, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
forget it, Dominic, forget it. We love you like a brother.
I call the truth. I told the truth. What are
you trying to do? Torture me? Is that what you
(24:11):
want to bend? The murder is another hens?
Speaker 5 (24:14):
No, what.
Speaker 1 (24:17):
You mean?
Speaker 6 (24:18):
There is always one witness, isn't that, Dominique?
Speaker 1 (24:22):
Oh that's what you mean? Is that why you came
to tell me that that's a good one? Hold the
wheel spayed, I'll bake my net. I'll spit in your eye,
one say, old man, one day, when you get smart,
you in a whole lousy war. Both watched him, thet
playing at paddling to himself like a little kid whistling
(24:45):
in the dark. He was a lousy actor, pale under
your son, burn and benched with I won't let you
fake oil by a coin. Then it began to come
slower and naked. Stick When I can improve it in
the cord, I'll so get the plea, Hey, what's thematic here?
What's pulling on this line? Maybe it's your conscience, Dominique,
it's heavys what the lord's moves in strange wish.
Speaker 3 (25:10):
Hick, you get it up.
Speaker 1 (25:12):
Let me help you here we go fun too, he.
Speaker 6 (25:19):
Go for me, Let me go.
Speaker 1 (25:31):
I haul Louis up onto the deck and the grisly
sight he was too for a knife still sticking in
his back. I figured that that was where Dominic would
put it, and I was right. Not that it mattered,
because Dominic wasn't thinking logically From the moment he saw
Louis's body tangled in his crab line. He sang us
all fifty verses then and there, and repeated them for
