Speaker 1 (00:07):
And now tonight's presentation of radio's outstanding theater of thrills,
Suspense Tonight the story of a woman, a most attractive woman,
who learns, to her discomfort that even the smallest of
arguments could lead to her death. So now, with Virginia
(00:28):
Gregg as Missus Russell and Vic Perrin as Henry, here
is tonight's suspense play. Good Night, Missus Russell.
Speaker 2 (00:42):
There's no escaping now. He hasn't said a word for
ten minutes. I know he's turning over in his mind.
How he's going to kill me. It's almost dawned. Now,
in a little while the milkman and the paper boys
will be making this rounds.
Speaker 3 (01:02):
I'll be dead.
Speaker 2 (01:10):
The cafe would just half a block away from where
I worked. It was a small, pleasant, little plate, spotlessly clean,
with a large plate glass window on the sidewalk. There
was always a beautiful looking roast turkey and a juicy
baked ham in the window, and you could watch Henry
carve off succulent pieces of meat and arrange them into
neat sandwiches with an olive and a dabbed potato salad
(01:31):
on the plate. Every noon, all of us who worked
in the hill Maar Building would go there for lunch.
We crowded in on the high stools and jabbered as
women do, while Henry patiently.
Speaker 3 (01:40):
Served us and put up with our female chatter. He
was always the only one there.
Speaker 4 (01:45):
How are you today, man, Oh, I'm.
Speaker 3 (01:46):
Fine, Thank you, Henry. I think I'll have some of
your nice.
Speaker 2 (01:50):
Baked ham and.
Speaker 4 (01:53):
And yes, ma'am coming on.
Speaker 3 (01:57):
It was always especially nice to me. I suppose that was.
Speaker 2 (02:01):
Because I am well, a little older than the others.
The other girls were all quite young and very cute.
Henry always seemed uncomfortable a little with them. Yes, ma'am, coffee,
yes please, And I believe I'll have some of your
cheering pie.
Speaker 3 (02:16):
You're an excellent cook, Henry.
Speaker 4 (02:18):
Thank you, ma'am. I'm glad you think so. Twenty fifteen thirty.
Speaker 2 (02:29):
Perhaps I should have realized then at a moment like that,
he'd been in the middle of adding up my check
when he stopped and stood very still and looked out
of the corner of his eye with his head cocked
on one side.
Speaker 3 (02:41):
As though he were listening for something. His expression was
a little horrified.
Speaker 2 (02:47):
I thought maybe he'd heard a sound that meant something
to him, you know, liked the refrigerator out of order
or something.
Speaker 3 (02:54):
Then all of a sudden he shook his head and
brushed away whatever it was he had heard.
Speaker 4 (02:58):
Yes, twenty and fifteen, thirty five and forty five. You
should try one of my dinners sometime, man.
Speaker 3 (03:06):
Henry, how about some service. We only have a few minutes, Henry,
excuse me?
Speaker 5 (03:10):
Night good.
Speaker 3 (03:12):
That was Henry.
Speaker 2 (03:14):
Oh one other things funny, But Henry never laughed. Perhaps
I should have realized about him because of that, but
I didn't.
Speaker 3 (03:31):
It was so nice and clean and polite. I rather
liked him. As a rule, I make my own dinner
in the apartment. But one night I had.
Speaker 2 (03:39):
To work quite late at the office, and I decided
to stop by Henry's and.
Speaker 3 (03:42):
Get a bite before catching the street car home.
Speaker 2 (03:46):
Ever since my husband died, I felt just a little
uneasy on.
Speaker 3 (03:49):
The streets alone at night.
Speaker 2 (03:52):
I was glad to see the bright light in Henry's
little cafe down the block. Henry was alone inside, and
I could see him fussing around cleaning up the place.
Speaker 3 (04:00):
He didn't hear me approaching.
Speaker 4 (04:02):
Okay, oh you you frightened me, ma'am. I didn't hear
you coming.
Speaker 2 (04:09):
I just thought i'd try one of your dinners tonight, Henry.
You mentioned it the other Yes.
Speaker 4 (04:12):
I know. Sit down, won't you, ma'am.
Speaker 3 (04:16):
Well, you weren't clothing or anything.
Speaker 4 (04:18):
No, no, not at all. What would you like?
Speaker 2 (04:21):
Oh, I'll try your number four dinner, number four, yes, ma'am.
Speaker 3 (04:28):
He seemed rather frightened about something or suspicious. Yes, that
was it. He seemed suspicious about something.
Speaker 2 (04:35):
I thought I wanted to help him somehow, but I
didn't want to butt in.
Speaker 4 (04:40):
This is the first time you've ever been by here
at nights, ma'am.
Speaker 2 (04:43):
Yes, I had to work late tonight, Henry didn't want
to go home without dinner.
Speaker 4 (04:47):
You know, I see.
Speaker 3 (04:50):
Is something wrong, Henry?
Speaker 4 (04:51):
No? No, I've got the rest of your dinner.
Speaker 2 (04:59):
MM delicious, So thank you, ma'am.
Speaker 4 (05:02):
You don't often work late.
Speaker 3 (05:04):
Do you, No, I don't. This is the first time.
Speaker 2 (05:06):
In fact, my boss asked me to stay late to
touch some letty.
Speaker 4 (05:09):
I know you're working the hill my building, Yes I do.
How do I know lots of things, ma'am.
Speaker 3 (05:21):
This is a good dinner, Henry.
Speaker 2 (05:28):
I uh, I guess I'm not as hungry as I
thought I was.
Speaker 3 (05:33):
I'm afraid I'm going to have to leave some of it.
Speaker 4 (05:35):
I thought you liked my cooking. You said so just
the other day.
Speaker 3 (05:38):
Oh I do.
Speaker 2 (05:39):
I think you're a grand crook, Henry. Just that I'm
not hungry tonight. I waited too long to eat.
Speaker 4 (05:44):
I guess you don't have to make excuses, ma'am. If
you didn't like it, just say so.
Speaker 3 (05:48):
No. I mean that your food is wonderful, Henry. If
it weren't, I wouldn't have come here, wouldn't you. No?
Speaker 2 (05:57):
Uh?
Speaker 3 (05:57):
Now, could I have my jack please, Henry?
Speaker 4 (05:59):
Five? Since men all right?
Speaker 3 (06:03):
There you are, Henry. You may keep the change.
Speaker 4 (06:06):
I'd rather not, ma'am. Yes, very well.
Speaker 3 (06:11):
Good night, Henry, ma'am.
Speaker 4 (06:14):
Yes, next time you come, I'll have something you like.
Speaker 3 (06:18):
But I did look.
Speaker 4 (06:20):
Oh, good night, Henry, good night missus Russell.
Speaker 2 (06:28):
It was good food, but I felt rather ill at
ease in there for some reason. That's why I couldn't eat.
I decided not to go back there alone. It was
rather hard to talk to Henry, and I didn't.
Speaker 3 (06:42):
Go back alone. That is not for three weeks. I
should never have gone back.
Speaker 2 (06:55):
We all continued to have our lunch there, and Henry
was the same quiet polite young man. Gradually I came
to feel that that odd business in the cafe that
night had just been all my imagination.
Speaker 3 (07:07):
Then came tonight.
Speaker 2 (07:10):
I had to work late and again, and for the
last time, I went to Henry.
Speaker 4 (07:24):
Hello, Henry, you've decided to try me again.
Speaker 3 (07:27):
I see why, Henry. I've been eating here every day.
Speaker 4 (07:30):
Not at night. What's the difference in the daytime? You're
always with your friends.
Speaker 3 (07:34):
Ill I eat with my friends.
Speaker 2 (07:36):
Now, let's have no more of this silly talk, hen I.
How about one of your wonderful dinners. I promised to
eat all of it tonight.
Speaker 4 (07:42):
All right, ma'am? Which one?
Speaker 3 (07:45):
I'll try the number four again? Please? I think that
way I can convince you I really like it.
Speaker 4 (07:50):
Why?
Speaker 3 (07:52):
Why? Because I think four is lucky?
Speaker 4 (07:54):
Don't you all right, ma'am it's already.
Speaker 2 (07:59):
You don't have many customers at night, do you, Henry, No, ma'am,
not many.
Speaker 3 (08:03):
I'm surprised it's day open.
Speaker 4 (08:05):
Are you here? You are?
Speaker 5 (08:07):
I hope you?
Speaker 4 (08:09):
I hope.
Speaker 2 (08:11):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (08:13):
What is it, Henry? You seem to be listening for something?
Is there it?
Speaker 4 (08:18):
Are you enjoying your dinner?
Speaker 3 (08:20):
Henry?
Speaker 2 (08:20):
I hate to sound like I'm crying. I know it
isn't my business at all, but I think something's bothering you,
do you, Yes, it's there.
Speaker 3 (08:31):
Isn't any way I can help. Is there?
Speaker 4 (08:33):
Nothing's bothering me, ma'am?
Speaker 3 (08:35):
Yes, huh hm. You know I had a son like you,
did you. He was in the army, killed in the war.
He was very much like you.
Speaker 4 (08:49):
I see.
Speaker 2 (08:49):
That left me all alone in the world. My husband, Lennard,
died four years before. When he was a wonderful man.
Everyone admired him.
Speaker 3 (08:57):
The contractor, you know.
Speaker 4 (08:59):
Ah.
Speaker 2 (09:03):
I began to notice that as I talked away about
my family and everything, he became very quiet.
Speaker 3 (09:09):
He sat down on.
Speaker 2 (09:10):
The cooler back of the counter and just watched me,
his face absolutely blank.
Speaker 3 (09:16):
I couldn't tell.
Speaker 2 (09:16):
What he was thinking. I was getting uneasy again. I
just about decided to make up an excuse to pay
my bill and leave. Was getting quite late when my
head began to feel heavy, and I began to feel sick.
Speaker 3 (09:33):
Strange missus Brussel, Henry, I feel.
Speaker 2 (09:38):
Ill, Henry, I'm awfully dizzy.
Speaker 3 (09:45):
I don't think, Henry. Can't you hear me? I believe
I'm go find a faint Perhaps you'd better help did
you do?
Speaker 4 (10:04):
Good Night, Missus Russell?
Speaker 1 (10:22):
You are listening to good Night Missus Russell, Tonight's presentation
in radio's outstanding Theater of Prills Suspense, A.
Speaker 6 (10:39):
One man crime wave comes to an abrupt end when
the FBI swings into action and an exciting tale. Tomorrow
Night on CBS Radio, the g men break up the
gentleman friend racket in brisk, efficient style. Listen to your
FBI in Peace and War tomorrow night on most of
these same stations.
Speaker 1 (10:57):
And now we bring back to our Hollywood soundstage. Virginia
Gregg and Vic Perrin in Tonight's production of good Night,
Missus Russell, A tale well calculated to keep you in suspence.
Speaker 2 (11:20):
I don't know how long I was unconscious. It seemed
just for a moment, a moment crowded with horrible nightmarees
and dreadful sounds. I remembered hearing a woman screaming, screaming
and crying horribly.
Speaker 3 (11:34):
It was ghastly. I must have been unconscious several hours.
And when I opened my eyes it was dark, pitch dark.
The clock was sicking somewhere, and I realized that the
screaming woman had been me. Is anyone here, we're up,
(12:02):
I'm tied up. Who's there? Then? Can anyone hear me? Hell?
Speaker 4 (12:17):
Hell, you're in my room, Missus Russell.
Speaker 3 (12:29):
It was Henry. We're wappy? What black as night? I
could see nothing? What was I doing here? Why was
I tied up? How did I get here? I remembered
nothing after after feeling just to hear it. Oh that
was it. You put something in my food, didn't you, Henry?
Speaker 4 (12:53):
Yes I did, Missus Russell. I didn't want to kill
you at the cafe you see kill me? Yes, Missus Russell.
Speaker 3 (13:01):
Why, Henry? Why?
Speaker 4 (13:04):
Because you're my enemy? You and all the others your enemy.
Speaker 3 (13:08):
I like you, hear me. I've always liked you.
Speaker 4 (13:10):
Don't lie, Missus Russell. You thought I didn't know, didn't you?
You thought I didn't know what you were up to.
But I was up too, planning to kill me. Night
after night, I've heard you, all of you outside my window, whispering,
whispering and talking about how you were going to kill me.
Didn't you know I could hear you. Oh no, I'm smart,
(13:32):
Missus Russell, and you know it. That's why all of
you planned to kill me, to get rid of me.
Just lucky, I found out you were one of them.
You'll be the first to die, Missus Russell. And you're
going to die slowly in the dark. How do you
like that, Missus Russell? Be quiet, Missus Russell, or I'll
(13:52):
have to beat you up before I kill you.
Speaker 2 (13:58):
To make myself think, I remembered you're supposed to humor
people that.
Speaker 3 (14:04):
Like Henry, I tried to control myself.
Speaker 4 (14:07):
No one can hear you. No one even knows you're here.
I'm not going to untire you either, not until you're dead, Henry.
Speaker 3 (14:20):
I'm just.
Speaker 4 (14:22):
I'm only you'll lie here in the dark and listen
to the alarm clock for half an hour. Just half
an hour, Missus Russell, and then I'll kill you. You see,
I want you to suffer like you've made me suffer.
Speaker 3 (14:35):
Henry.
Speaker 2 (14:37):
I'm just an ordinary woman. Just how can you think
these things about me?
Speaker 4 (14:44):
Oh? Come now, Missus Russell. I'm smart enough to see
through those remarks you made, and remark always talking about
what a good cook I was, as if you felt
I wasn't a man. I know what you're thinking, Henry.
Speaker 3 (14:55):
I didn't mean anything of the sort.
Speaker 4 (14:58):
I really am rubbing it in your precious son in
the army, rubbing it in and torture Henry.
Speaker 3 (15:03):
All those things they were your imagination. I didn't mean
them that way at all, you.
Speaker 4 (15:08):
Like all the rest. I'm too smart for you, and
you know it, so you want to kill me. I'm
a dangerous enemy, Missus Russell.
Speaker 3 (15:18):
How long have I got? Too?
Speaker 2 (15:22):
Little?
Speaker 3 (15:23):
Henry?
Speaker 4 (15:24):
Half hour? I don't know the alarm will ring, then
I'll kill you.
Speaker 3 (15:33):
I was resigned to it. Then it seemed so hopeless.
Speaker 2 (15:39):
Then I thought if I could just get him to
turn on the light, I might see your way out.
Speaker 3 (15:45):
It was a forlorn hope, but.
Speaker 2 (15:47):
I tried it, Henry, Henry, how do you know you
set the clock right?
Speaker 3 (15:59):
Henry?
Speaker 4 (15:59):
I heard you.
Speaker 3 (16:00):
You didn't answer.
Speaker 4 (16:01):
You thought you could get me to turn on the light. Sorry,
missus rust.
Speaker 2 (16:09):
Henry, you're torturing yourself more than you are me.
Speaker 3 (16:14):
Henry. Do you know that?
Speaker 4 (16:17):
What do you mean?
Speaker 3 (16:19):
You don't know when the alarm's going to ring either.
Speaker 2 (16:23):
You must be sitting on the edge of your seat
waiting to hear it, aren't you.
Speaker 3 (16:30):
You see when it rings.
Speaker 2 (16:33):
I know that I'll have to die, But you know
that you will have to commit a terrible crime.
Speaker 3 (16:41):
Murder Henry.
Speaker 5 (16:42):
Shut up.
Speaker 3 (16:43):
It is true, then, isn't it.
Speaker 4 (16:44):
You You can't trick me into turning on the light.
I'm too smart for that. You're going to suffer in
the dark as I have. I decided to turn on
(17:11):
the light, Missus Russell.
Speaker 2 (17:16):
At first I was blinded, after having been in the
dark so long.
Speaker 3 (17:20):
Then I saw his hands.
Speaker 2 (17:22):
You were long and clear, and brown, blue veins stood
out on the backs of them.
Speaker 3 (17:28):
I looked up at him. He was just staring at me.
Then he picked up the alarm clock and looked at it.
Speaker 4 (17:39):
Ten minutes to three, Missus Russell, you have ten minutes
to live, and you wait.
Speaker 2 (17:46):
It was a tiny, neat living room. I was on
a couch, The shades were down, there was no foam.
Speaker 3 (17:55):
The front door might be unlocked. It might be.
Speaker 2 (18:01):
I can wait, Henry, eight minutes now. The hands were
raising each other around the face of the clock. But
if I could just get untied now, there'd be a chance.
Speaker 3 (18:14):
I'd have to be careful, but quick.
Speaker 4 (18:17):
Quick, five minutes, Missus Russell.
Speaker 3 (18:21):
Henry, what are those things trapped to that board over
there on the wall.
Speaker 4 (18:26):
Well, that's my collection collection match folders.
Speaker 3 (18:30):
Oh do you collect match folders?
Speaker 4 (18:32):
Oh, yes, I'll show them to you.
Speaker 2 (18:35):
I held my breath as he took them down off
the wall. That clock would only stand still for five minutes.
Speaker 4 (18:43):
Yes see, I have folders from all the famous night spots.
He has, ceroes and the store club in twenty one.
Bet you didn't think I'd been to all those places,
did you?
Speaker 3 (18:55):
Why know, have you? Henry?
Speaker 4 (18:57):
Sure? Lots of times people would never be leave me.
That's why I have these.
Speaker 3 (19:01):
They're lovely, Henry.
Speaker 2 (19:04):
Yes, Henry, my arms and legs are numb from being tied.
Speaker 4 (19:10):
Up like this, could you No? I want you not
to get tricky, Missus Russell.
Speaker 3 (19:17):
I just wanted you to loosen my hands so I
could look at your collection.
Speaker 4 (19:23):
Well, trust your hands.
Speaker 2 (19:31):
He'd forgotten about everything but his collection for the moment,
but that alarm would go off any second, and that
would remind him If.
Speaker 3 (19:38):
He untied my hands.
Speaker 2 (19:40):
My eyes fell on a large jade bookend beside the couch.
Speaker 4 (19:47):
Now be careful, missus Russell. You just wanted to see
my collection.
Speaker 3 (19:51):
Remember, yes, sure to me?
Speaker 4 (19:54):
No, see this one. It's from the coconut growth.
Speaker 3 (19:59):
Yes, Henry, this one. I let my hands steal along
the couch to it. The book.
Speaker 4 (20:03):
Yet, yes it is Henry.
Speaker 3 (20:07):
Oh, yes, I am look at it in my hand.
Speaker 2 (20:10):
Now. I don't even remember doing it, but somehow I'd
gotten the bindings off my.
Speaker 3 (20:26):
Feet and I was outside in the night. He's been
telling the truth. His house was the only one on
that block. I ran as hard as I could. I
didn't even think about direction, just ran. I knew he'd
come to in a minute, and I had to get
out of sight. I'm not useless such exercise. And my
heart was sounding so hot an ache. In the middle
(20:46):
of the next block, I stopped her mont and leaned
against the tree to breathe. And I looked back and
I saw him. I could see him beneath the street lands.
He stopped, not knowing which way I'd gone. He was wild.
His mouth was hanging open looser. I straight back further
(21:07):
in the shadows and prayed he'd go the other way.
He didn't. He started walking rapidly again in my direction.
There was a house on the bock, a big rambling place.
Was after three am, and the people would be asleep.
But I knew I could run no farther.
Speaker 6 (21:25):
Help, Oh, help let me in, Oh, please open the
door open.
Speaker 3 (21:36):
Then I had an end to the door. It said
no milk for tender. I could hear a hand footsteps.
Speaker 2 (21:46):
Down the street, and I knew he must have hurt me.
Speaker 3 (22:00):
My card, don't The street was deserted, and then I
heard a car approaching. It was a block away. I
ran up the street and wiped my arms. Help, oh
help me, don't paid Oh pase.
Speaker 4 (22:28):
Hello, Missus Russell. Y come on, Missus Russell. Come on,
we're going home again. Missus Russell.
Speaker 2 (22:49):
There's no escaping now. He hasn't said a word for
ten minutes. I know he's turning over in his mind.
Speaker 3 (22:59):
How he's going to kill me. It's almost done.
Speaker 2 (23:05):
In a little while, the milkman the paper boys will
be making the rounds.
Speaker 4 (23:12):
I'll be dead. You shouldn't have tried to get away,
Missus Russell. You made me very angry. I know you
shouldn't have hit me either. You were even smarter than
I thought, Missus Russell. You almost made it, but you
weren't smart enough.
Speaker 2 (23:33):
Well you, if you're going to kill me, Henry, please
do it.
Speaker 3 (23:38):
Haven't you tortured me enough?
Speaker 4 (23:40):
You see, just didn't do you any good to be
my enemy, did it. I don't like to kill you,
but I have to. It's the only way I can
protect myself.
Speaker 3 (23:49):
Oh, don't you see you're not well, Henry. Please try
to listen to me.
Speaker 4 (23:57):
I'll have to kill all the others too. I why
don't they'll kill me the others. Don't pretend you don't know.
I've heard them whispering about me. You must have heard
them too, the voices all the time, Just like I
told you, when I'm at work, even here at home,
I hear them plotting. They don't know I know, and there.
Speaker 3 (24:16):
Is no one. It's all an illusion, don't you see?
Speaker 4 (24:19):
Just like you are there afraid of me because they
know I cannot smart them. I'm too clever for them,
and they know it. That's why they want to kill me.
That's why you want to kill me, isn't it, Missus Russell.
Speaker 3 (24:32):
I don't want to kill you, Henry. If only there
were some one.
Speaker 4 (24:35):
Rather gotten to like you, Missus Russell, if you weren't
dangerous to me, I might let you live.
Speaker 3 (24:40):
I'm not dangerous to you, Henry, Yes you are.
Speaker 4 (24:47):
I've decided to strangle you. If you'll close your eyes,
it will happen very quickly. You hardly know it. Oh,
are you ready, Missus rus Now, please don't struggle. It
will be much easier for both of us. Aren't you
(25:07):
going to close your eyes? What's that?
Speaker 3 (25:18):
What?
Speaker 4 (25:19):
Listen? You can hear them, don't you hear them?
Speaker 3 (25:20):
The voices, the voices, the voices.
Speaker 4 (25:23):
Don't you hear them?
Speaker 3 (25:24):
Yes? I hear them, Henry.

See now you believe me, don't you You hear what
they're saying.
Speaker 3 (25:30):
Yes, yes, it's just as you said, Henry.
Speaker 4 (25:34):
They must be right near, yes, right near. There are
a lot of them. They are too many.
Speaker 3 (25:38):
You'd better hide, Henry.
Speaker 4 (25:39):
Yes, yes, the prayer. They sound louder all the time.
Speaker 3 (25:42):
They're getting closer.
Speaker 4 (25:43):
Have you a closet, Yes, that's it's the closet over here.
Speaker 3 (25:46):

And now tonight's presentation of radio's outstanding theater of thrills,
Suspense Tonight the story of a woman, a most attractive woman,
who learns, to her discomfort that even the smallest of
arguments could lead to her death. So now, with Virginia
(00:28):
Gregg as Missus Russell and Vic Perrin as Henry, here
is tonight's suspense play. Good Night, Missus Russell.
Speaker 2 (00:42):
There's no escaping now. He hasn't said a word for
ten minutes. I know he's turning over in his mind.
How he's going to kill me. It's almost dawned. Now,
in a little while the milkman and the paper boys
will be making this rounds.
Speaker 3 (01:02):
I'll be dead.
Speaker 2 (01:10):
The cafe would just half a block away from where
I worked. It was a small, pleasant, little plate, spotlessly clean,
with a large plate glass window on the sidewalk. There
was always a beautiful looking roast turkey and a juicy
baked ham in the window, and you could watch Henry
carve off succulent pieces of meat and arrange them into
neat sandwiches with an olive and a dabbed potato salad
(01:31):
on the plate. Every noon, all of us who worked
in the hill Maar Building would go there for lunch.
We crowded in on the high stools and jabbered as
women do, while Henry patiently.
Speaker 3 (01:40):
Served us and put up with our female chatter. He
was always the only one there.
Speaker 4 (01:45):
How are you today, man, Oh, I'm.
Speaker 3 (01:46):
Fine, Thank you, Henry. I think I'll have some of
your nice.
Speaker 2 (01:50):
Baked ham and.
Speaker 4 (01:53):
And yes, ma'am coming on.
Speaker 3 (01:57):
It was always especially nice to me. I suppose that was.
Speaker 2 (02:01):
Because I am well, a little older than the others.
The other girls were all quite young and very cute.
Henry always seemed uncomfortable a little with them. Yes, ma'am, coffee,
yes please, And I believe I'll have some of your
cheering pie.
Speaker 3 (02:16):
You're an excellent cook, Henry.
Speaker 4 (02:18):
Thank you, ma'am. I'm glad you think so. Twenty fifteen thirty.
Speaker 2 (02:29):
Perhaps I should have realized then at a moment like that,
he'd been in the middle of adding up my check
when he stopped and stood very still and looked out
of the corner of his eye with his head cocked
on one side.
Speaker 3 (02:41):
As though he were listening for something. His expression was
a little horrified.
Speaker 2 (02:47):
I thought maybe he'd heard a sound that meant something
to him, you know, liked the refrigerator out of order
or something.
Speaker 3 (02:54):
Then all of a sudden he shook his head and
brushed away whatever it was he had heard.
Speaker 4 (02:58):
Yes, twenty and fifteen, thirty five and forty five. You
should try one of my dinners sometime, man.
Speaker 3 (03:06):
Henry, how about some service. We only have a few minutes, Henry,
excuse me?
Speaker 5 (03:10):
Night good.
Speaker 3 (03:12):
That was Henry.
Speaker 2 (03:14):
Oh one other things funny, But Henry never laughed. Perhaps
I should have realized about him because of that, but
I didn't.
Speaker 3 (03:31):
It was so nice and clean and polite. I rather
liked him. As a rule, I make my own dinner
in the apartment. But one night I had.
Speaker 2 (03:39):
To work quite late at the office, and I decided
to stop by Henry's and.
Speaker 3 (03:42):
Get a bite before catching the street car home.
Speaker 2 (03:46):
Ever since my husband died, I felt just a little
uneasy on.
Speaker 3 (03:49):
The streets alone at night.
Speaker 2 (03:52):
I was glad to see the bright light in Henry's
little cafe down the block. Henry was alone inside, and
I could see him fussing around cleaning up the place.
Speaker 3 (04:00):
He didn't hear me approaching.
Speaker 4 (04:02):
Okay, oh you you frightened me, ma'am. I didn't hear
you coming.
Speaker 2 (04:09):
I just thought i'd try one of your dinners tonight, Henry.
You mentioned it the other Yes.
Speaker 4 (04:12):
I know. Sit down, won't you, ma'am.
Speaker 3 (04:16):
Well, you weren't clothing or anything.
Speaker 4 (04:18):
No, no, not at all. What would you like?
Speaker 2 (04:21):
Oh, I'll try your number four dinner, number four, yes, ma'am.
Speaker 3 (04:28):
He seemed rather frightened about something or suspicious. Yes, that
was it. He seemed suspicious about something.
Speaker 2 (04:35):
I thought I wanted to help him somehow, but I
didn't want to butt in.
Speaker 4 (04:40):
This is the first time you've ever been by here
at nights, ma'am.
Speaker 2 (04:43):
Yes, I had to work late tonight, Henry didn't want
to go home without dinner.
Speaker 4 (04:47):
You know, I see.
Speaker 3 (04:50):
Is something wrong, Henry?
Speaker 4 (04:51):
No? No, I've got the rest of your dinner.
Speaker 2 (04:59):
MM delicious, So thank you, ma'am.
Speaker 4 (05:02):
You don't often work late.
Speaker 3 (05:04):
Do you, No, I don't. This is the first time.
Speaker 2 (05:06):
In fact, my boss asked me to stay late to
touch some letty.
Speaker 4 (05:09):
I know you're working the hill my building, Yes I do.
How do I know lots of things, ma'am.
Speaker 3 (05:21):
This is a good dinner, Henry.
Speaker 2 (05:28):
I uh, I guess I'm not as hungry as I
thought I was.
Speaker 3 (05:33):
I'm afraid I'm going to have to leave some of it.
Speaker 4 (05:35):
I thought you liked my cooking. You said so just
the other day.
Speaker 3 (05:38):
Oh I do.
Speaker 2 (05:39):
I think you're a grand crook, Henry. Just that I'm
not hungry tonight. I waited too long to eat.
Speaker 4 (05:44):
I guess you don't have to make excuses, ma'am. If
you didn't like it, just say so.
Speaker 3 (05:48):
No. I mean that your food is wonderful, Henry. If
it weren't, I wouldn't have come here, wouldn't you. No?
Speaker 2 (05:57):
Uh?
Speaker 3 (05:57):
Now, could I have my jack please, Henry?
Speaker 4 (05:59):
Five? Since men all right?
Speaker 3 (06:03):
There you are, Henry. You may keep the change.
Speaker 4 (06:06):
I'd rather not, ma'am. Yes, very well.
Speaker 3 (06:11):
Good night, Henry, ma'am.
Speaker 4 (06:14):
Yes, next time you come, I'll have something you like.
Speaker 3 (06:18):
But I did look.
Speaker 4 (06:20):
Oh, good night, Henry, good night missus Russell.
Speaker 2 (06:28):
It was good food, but I felt rather ill at
ease in there for some reason. That's why I couldn't eat.
I decided not to go back there alone. It was
rather hard to talk to Henry, and I didn't.
Speaker 3 (06:42):
Go back alone. That is not for three weeks. I
should never have gone back.
Speaker 2 (06:55):
We all continued to have our lunch there, and Henry
was the same quiet polite young man. Gradually I came
to feel that that odd business in the cafe that
night had just been all my imagination.
Speaker 3 (07:07):
Then came tonight.
Speaker 2 (07:10):
I had to work late and again, and for the
last time, I went to Henry.
Speaker 4 (07:24):
Hello, Henry, you've decided to try me again.
Speaker 3 (07:27):
I see why, Henry. I've been eating here every day.
Speaker 4 (07:30):
Not at night. What's the difference in the daytime? You're
always with your friends.
Speaker 3 (07:34):
Ill I eat with my friends.
Speaker 2 (07:36):
Now, let's have no more of this silly talk, hen I.
How about one of your wonderful dinners. I promised to
eat all of it tonight.
Speaker 4 (07:42):
All right, ma'am? Which one?
Speaker 3 (07:45):
I'll try the number four again? Please? I think that
way I can convince you I really like it.
Speaker 4 (07:50):
Why?
Speaker 3 (07:52):
Why? Because I think four is lucky?
Speaker 4 (07:54):
Don't you all right, ma'am it's already.
Speaker 2 (07:59):
You don't have many customers at night, do you, Henry, No, ma'am,
not many.
Speaker 3 (08:03):
I'm surprised it's day open.
Speaker 4 (08:05):
Are you here? You are?
Speaker 5 (08:07):
I hope you?
Speaker 4 (08:09):
I hope.
Speaker 2 (08:11):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (08:13):
What is it, Henry? You seem to be listening for something?
Is there it?
Speaker 4 (08:18):
Are you enjoying your dinner?
Speaker 3 (08:20):
Henry?
Speaker 2 (08:20):
I hate to sound like I'm crying. I know it
isn't my business at all, but I think something's bothering you,
do you, Yes, it's there.
Speaker 3 (08:31):
Isn't any way I can help. Is there?
Speaker 4 (08:33):
Nothing's bothering me, ma'am?
Speaker 3 (08:35):
Yes, huh hm. You know I had a son like you,
did you. He was in the army, killed in the war.
He was very much like you.
Speaker 4 (08:49):
I see.
Speaker 2 (08:49):
That left me all alone in the world. My husband, Lennard,
died four years before. When he was a wonderful man.
Everyone admired him.
Speaker 3 (08:57):
The contractor, you know.
Speaker 4 (08:59):
Ah.
Speaker 2 (09:03):
I began to notice that as I talked away about
my family and everything, he became very quiet.
Speaker 3 (09:09):
He sat down on.
Speaker 2 (09:10):
The cooler back of the counter and just watched me,
his face absolutely blank.
Speaker 3 (09:16):
I couldn't tell.
Speaker 2 (09:16):
What he was thinking. I was getting uneasy again. I
just about decided to make up an excuse to pay
my bill and leave. Was getting quite late when my
head began to feel heavy, and I began to feel sick.
Speaker 3 (09:33):
Strange missus Brussel, Henry, I feel.
Speaker 2 (09:38):
Ill, Henry, I'm awfully dizzy.
Speaker 3 (09:45):
I don't think, Henry. Can't you hear me? I believe
I'm go find a faint Perhaps you'd better help did
you do?
Speaker 4 (10:04):
Good Night, Missus Russell?
Speaker 1 (10:22):
You are listening to good Night Missus Russell, Tonight's presentation
in radio's outstanding Theater of Prills Suspense, A.
Speaker 6 (10:39):
One man crime wave comes to an abrupt end when
the FBI swings into action and an exciting tale. Tomorrow
Night on CBS Radio, the g men break up the
gentleman friend racket in brisk, efficient style. Listen to your
FBI in Peace and War tomorrow night on most of
these same stations.
Speaker 1 (10:57):
And now we bring back to our Hollywood soundstage. Virginia
Gregg and Vic Perrin in Tonight's production of good Night,
Missus Russell, A tale well calculated to keep you in suspence.
Speaker 2 (11:20):
I don't know how long I was unconscious. It seemed
just for a moment, a moment crowded with horrible nightmarees
and dreadful sounds. I remembered hearing a woman screaming, screaming
and crying horribly.
Speaker 3 (11:34):
It was ghastly. I must have been unconscious several hours.
And when I opened my eyes it was dark, pitch dark.
The clock was sicking somewhere, and I realized that the
screaming woman had been me. Is anyone here, we're up,
(12:02):
I'm tied up. Who's there? Then? Can anyone hear me? Hell?
Speaker 4 (12:17):
Hell, you're in my room, Missus Russell.
Speaker 3 (12:29):
It was Henry. We're wappy? What black as night? I
could see nothing? What was I doing here? Why was
I tied up? How did I get here? I remembered
nothing after after feeling just to hear it. Oh that
was it. You put something in my food, didn't you, Henry?
Speaker 4 (12:53):
Yes I did, Missus Russell. I didn't want to kill
you at the cafe you see kill me? Yes, Missus Russell.
Speaker 3 (13:01):
Why, Henry? Why?
Speaker 4 (13:04):
Because you're my enemy? You and all the others your enemy.
Speaker 3 (13:08):
I like you, hear me. I've always liked you.
Speaker 4 (13:10):
Don't lie, Missus Russell. You thought I didn't know, didn't you?
You thought I didn't know what you were up to.
But I was up too, planning to kill me. Night
after night, I've heard you, all of you outside my window, whispering,
whispering and talking about how you were going to kill me.
Didn't you know I could hear you. Oh no, I'm smart,
(13:32):
Missus Russell, and you know it. That's why all of
you planned to kill me, to get rid of me.
Just lucky, I found out you were one of them.
You'll be the first to die, Missus Russell. And you're
going to die slowly in the dark. How do you
like that, Missus Russell? Be quiet, Missus Russell, or I'll
(13:52):
have to beat you up before I kill you.
Speaker 2 (13:58):
To make myself think, I remembered you're supposed to humor
people that.
Speaker 3 (14:04):
Like Henry, I tried to control myself.
Speaker 4 (14:07):
No one can hear you. No one even knows you're here.
I'm not going to untire you either, not until you're dead, Henry.
Speaker 3 (14:20):
I'm just.
Speaker 4 (14:22):
I'm only you'll lie here in the dark and listen
to the alarm clock for half an hour. Just half
an hour, Missus Russell, and then I'll kill you. You see,
I want you to suffer like you've made me suffer.
Speaker 3 (14:35):
Henry.
Speaker 2 (14:37):
I'm just an ordinary woman. Just how can you think
these things about me?
Speaker 4 (14:44):
Oh? Come now, Missus Russell. I'm smart enough to see
through those remarks you made, and remark always talking about
what a good cook I was, as if you felt
I wasn't a man. I know what you're thinking, Henry.
Speaker 3 (14:55):
I didn't mean anything of the sort.
Speaker 4 (14:58):
I really am rubbing it in your precious son in
the army, rubbing it in and torture Henry.
Speaker 3 (15:03):
All those things they were your imagination. I didn't mean
them that way at all, you.
Speaker 4 (15:08):
Like all the rest. I'm too smart for you, and
you know it, so you want to kill me. I'm
a dangerous enemy, Missus Russell.
Speaker 3 (15:18):
How long have I got? Too?
Speaker 2 (15:22):
Little?
Speaker 3 (15:23):
Henry?
Speaker 4 (15:24):
Half hour? I don't know the alarm will ring, then
I'll kill you.
Speaker 3 (15:33):
I was resigned to it. Then it seemed so hopeless.
Speaker 2 (15:39):
Then I thought if I could just get him to
turn on the light, I might see your way out.
Speaker 3 (15:45):
It was a forlorn hope, but.
Speaker 2 (15:47):
I tried it, Henry, Henry, how do you know you
set the clock right?
Speaker 3 (15:59):
Henry?
Speaker 4 (15:59):
I heard you.
Speaker 3 (16:00):
You didn't answer.
Speaker 4 (16:01):
You thought you could get me to turn on the light. Sorry,
missus rust.
Speaker 2 (16:09):
Henry, you're torturing yourself more than you are me.
Speaker 3 (16:14):
Henry. Do you know that?
Speaker 4 (16:17):
What do you mean?
Speaker 3 (16:19):
You don't know when the alarm's going to ring either.
Speaker 2 (16:23):
You must be sitting on the edge of your seat
waiting to hear it, aren't you.
Speaker 3 (16:30):
You see when it rings.
Speaker 2 (16:33):
I know that I'll have to die, But you know
that you will have to commit a terrible crime.
Speaker 3 (16:41):
Murder Henry.
Speaker 5 (16:42):
Shut up.
Speaker 3 (16:43):
It is true, then, isn't it.
Speaker 4 (16:44):
You You can't trick me into turning on the light.
I'm too smart for that. You're going to suffer in
the dark as I have. I decided to turn on
(17:11):
the light, Missus Russell.
Speaker 2 (17:16):
At first I was blinded, after having been in the
dark so long.
Speaker 3 (17:20):
Then I saw his hands.
Speaker 2 (17:22):
You were long and clear, and brown, blue veins stood
out on the backs of them.
Speaker 3 (17:28):
I looked up at him. He was just staring at me.
Then he picked up the alarm clock and looked at it.
Speaker 4 (17:39):
Ten minutes to three, Missus Russell, you have ten minutes
to live, and you wait.
Speaker 2 (17:46):
It was a tiny, neat living room. I was on
a couch, The shades were down, there was no foam.
Speaker 3 (17:55):
The front door might be unlocked. It might be.
Speaker 2 (18:01):
I can wait, Henry, eight minutes now. The hands were
raising each other around the face of the clock. But
if I could just get untied now, there'd be a chance.
Speaker 3 (18:14):
I'd have to be careful, but quick.
Speaker 4 (18:17):
Quick, five minutes, Missus Russell.
Speaker 3 (18:21):
Henry, what are those things trapped to that board over
there on the wall.
Speaker 4 (18:26):
Well, that's my collection collection match folders.
Speaker 3 (18:30):
Oh do you collect match folders?
Speaker 4 (18:32):
Oh, yes, I'll show them to you.
Speaker 2 (18:35):
I held my breath as he took them down off
the wall. That clock would only stand still for five minutes.
Speaker 4 (18:43):
Yes see, I have folders from all the famous night spots.
He has, ceroes and the store club in twenty one.
Bet you didn't think I'd been to all those places,
did you?
Speaker 3 (18:55):
Why know, have you? Henry?
Speaker 4 (18:57):
Sure? Lots of times people would never be leave me.
That's why I have these.
Speaker 3 (19:01):
They're lovely, Henry.
Speaker 2 (19:04):
Yes, Henry, my arms and legs are numb from being tied.
Speaker 4 (19:10):
Up like this, could you No? I want you not
to get tricky, Missus Russell.
Speaker 3 (19:17):
I just wanted you to loosen my hands so I
could look at your collection.
Speaker 4 (19:23):
Well, trust your hands.
Speaker 2 (19:31):
He'd forgotten about everything but his collection for the moment,
but that alarm would go off any second, and that
would remind him If.
Speaker 3 (19:38):
He untied my hands.
Speaker 2 (19:40):
My eyes fell on a large jade bookend beside the couch.
Speaker 4 (19:47):
Now be careful, missus Russell. You just wanted to see
my collection.
Speaker 3 (19:51):
Remember, yes, sure to me?
Speaker 4 (19:54):
No, see this one. It's from the coconut growth.
Speaker 3 (19:59):
Yes, Henry, this one. I let my hands steal along
the couch to it. The book.
Speaker 4 (20:03):
Yet, yes it is Henry.
Speaker 3 (20:07):
Oh, yes, I am look at it in my hand.
Speaker 2 (20:10):
Now. I don't even remember doing it, but somehow I'd
gotten the bindings off my.
Speaker 3 (20:26):
Feet and I was outside in the night. He's been
telling the truth. His house was the only one on
that block. I ran as hard as I could. I
didn't even think about direction, just ran. I knew he'd
come to in a minute, and I had to get
out of sight. I'm not useless such exercise. And my
heart was sounding so hot an ache. In the middle
(20:46):
of the next block, I stopped her mont and leaned
against the tree to breathe. And I looked back and
I saw him. I could see him beneath the street lands.
He stopped, not knowing which way I'd gone. He was wild.
His mouth was hanging open looser. I straight back further
(21:07):
in the shadows and prayed he'd go the other way.
He didn't. He started walking rapidly again in my direction.
There was a house on the bock, a big rambling place.
Was after three am, and the people would be asleep.
But I knew I could run no farther.
Speaker 6 (21:25):
Help, Oh, help let me in, Oh, please open the
door open.
Speaker 3 (21:36):
Then I had an end to the door. It said
no milk for tender. I could hear a hand footsteps.
Speaker 2 (21:46):
Down the street, and I knew he must have hurt me.
Speaker 3 (22:00):
My card, don't The street was deserted, and then I
heard a car approaching. It was a block away. I
ran up the street and wiped my arms. Help, oh
help me, don't paid Oh pase.
Speaker 4 (22:28):
Hello, Missus Russell. Y come on, Missus Russell. Come on,
we're going home again. Missus Russell.
Speaker 2 (22:49):
There's no escaping now. He hasn't said a word for
ten minutes. I know he's turning over in his mind.
Speaker 3 (22:59):
How he's going to kill me. It's almost done.
Speaker 2 (23:05):
In a little while, the milkman the paper boys will
be making the rounds.
Speaker 4 (23:12):
I'll be dead. You shouldn't have tried to get away,
Missus Russell. You made me very angry. I know you
shouldn't have hit me either. You were even smarter than
I thought, Missus Russell. You almost made it, but you
weren't smart enough.
Speaker 2 (23:33):
Well you, if you're going to kill me, Henry, please
do it.
Speaker 3 (23:38):
Haven't you tortured me enough?
Speaker 4 (23:40):
You see, just didn't do you any good to be
my enemy, did it. I don't like to kill you,
but I have to. It's the only way I can
protect myself.
Speaker 3 (23:49):
Oh, don't you see you're not well, Henry. Please try
to listen to me.
Speaker 4 (23:57):
I'll have to kill all the others too. I why
