Alone.
Speaker 2 (00:04):
Yes, this is the Falcon speaking.
Speaker 3 (00:07):
This is it early he friends inviting you on behalf
of the Craft Foods Company to listen to the Adventures
of the Falcon, starring lest Eima. You met the Falcon
first in his best selling novels, then you saw him
in his thrilling motion picture series. Now join him on
the air when the Falcon solves.
Speaker 1 (00:26):
Case of the Shopkeeper's gun. It's Sunday night in New
York and in the Midtown hotel room. An ugly smile
that has almost to sneer twist the thin lips of
stocky Ed Taylor as he looks with bored and sleepy
eyes at the young man who was pacing.
Speaker 2 (00:44):
The floor in front of him. Sit down, Conrad, give
you feed the rest.
Speaker 1 (00:49):
You haven't given me your answer yet. Do I get
my money back at Donna?
Speaker 2 (00:52):
Now think about it.
Speaker 1 (00:53):
What's the think you gave me a rook? Either you
make good on it or what do I get my money?
Speaker 2 (01:00):
Commre Connery, what do you want?
Speaker 4 (01:02):
Tell you something?
Speaker 2 (01:03):
What I could go?
Speaker 5 (01:05):
That's the idea of what are you trying to do?
Speaker 4 (01:06):
Just taking precautions? Yeah, here we are, So you brought.
Speaker 1 (01:11):
A gun with you. I wasn't gonna use it less
I had had to to protect myself.
Speaker 6 (01:17):
Well, now that you don't have any protection, don't you
think it's a little dangerous to hang around here.
Speaker 5 (01:22):
I'll get a lawyer.
Speaker 6 (01:23):
If a lawyer could do you any good, you wouldn't
have come up here throwing your weight around. I hate
to keep you because I know you must have things
to do.
Speaker 2 (01:32):
Shall I show you.
Speaker 5 (01:33):
Out or throw you out? All right? Teler, you win
this rde win.
Speaker 6 (01:37):
Them all, pals, You might as well throw in the
towel unless you want to see what it feels like
to get counted out.
Speaker 5 (01:43):
We'll say about that.
Speaker 4 (01:44):
Goodbye, Teller.
Speaker 1 (01:49):
Wow, you're an old meanie, Taylor. That was no way
to treat the fellow.
Speaker 2 (01:52):
Dumb jerk.
Speaker 6 (01:54):
He had a gun, like you said he would.
Speaker 2 (01:56):
Yes, I wonder if he'll try anything else.
Speaker 1 (01:59):
I doubt it, But as long as he doesn't know
we're working together, I can always find out.
Speaker 2 (02:04):
Let's see the gun here. Thanks? Could you hear all
he said in the other room?
Speaker 1 (02:08):
Yeah, forty five. Conrad believes I'm doing things in a
big way.
Speaker 6 (02:14):
He probably won't quit. You'd better have a talk with
him tomorrow. See if he's planning anything.
Speaker 1 (02:19):
Or maybe it won't be necessary. I have thought of
one way I can kill two birds with one stone
or one bullet.
Speaker 7 (02:26):
What You're not going to kill him?
Speaker 8 (02:28):
No, Taylor, I'm not going to kill him. Well I'm
going to kill you.
Speaker 6 (02:33):
What kind of a gag is that? We wait a minute, Moody,
don't point to.
Speaker 1 (02:56):
Are you the owner of this shop? What I said?
Are you the owner of this plans?
Speaker 7 (03:00):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (03:00):
Yeah, George Conrad?
Speaker 5 (03:01):
That's right?
Speaker 1 (03:02):
How's business? What I said? How's look? Turn off that record?
Well here's a week of talk.
Speaker 5 (03:08):
Oh yeah, sure, sir, What were you saying?
Speaker 1 (03:11):
I said? The record? Business must be pretty good? Why
for you to be able to blow ten grand Conrad?
Speaker 5 (03:17):
Why who are you?
Speaker 1 (03:19):
Sergeant Corbett Police Department?
Speaker 5 (03:21):
Police? Well, what's the matter?
Speaker 1 (03:23):
He found your name and ed Taylor's books?
Speaker 5 (03:26):
Oh you've got his books? Can you prove anything about?
What about his swindling?
Speaker 1 (03:30):
Oh you think he's a swindler?
Speaker 5 (03:31):
Of course, isn't that why you picked him up?
Speaker 1 (03:33):
Not exactly?
Speaker 4 (03:34):
Then?
Speaker 1 (03:34):
What found the gun? Traced it? You bought it a
couple of days ago, that's right. Once I got the
gun that killed Taylor killed? That's what I said, Oh,
so that's it.
Speaker 5 (03:44):
But surely you don't.
Speaker 1 (03:45):
Look if I had anything to do with the shooting,
I certainly wouldn't have left my own gun there. Why
did you leave your gun there?
Speaker 5 (03:50):
I Taylor took it away from me.
Speaker 1 (03:51):
Why did you buy the gun?
Speaker 5 (03:53):
I thought there might be trouble when I demanded my money.
Speaker 1 (03:56):
So you admit demanding money. You admit you expected trouble.
You admit you went up there with a gun. I
didn't kill him, like I said, I certainly wouldn't have
left the gun there wasn't left there. It was heading
in a trash barrel in an alley. Thereby, if the
barrel hadn't been accidentally knocked over, the gun probably never
would have been discovered. Well then all I can say
is get out of my way. Hey, I right stop?
Speaker 5 (04:31):
Well hello, George, he said the door quick, I should
shut it.
Speaker 2 (04:35):
What's the matter?
Speaker 8 (04:35):
Why do I lock it?
Speaker 5 (04:38):
Marie?
Speaker 8 (04:39):
The police are after me?
Speaker 2 (04:40):
The police?
Speaker 9 (04:41):
Why what did you do?
Speaker 5 (04:42):
Nobody killed Taylor? Oh no, I think it was me.
I admitted I had a row with him. But you
didn't kill him.
Speaker 8 (04:47):
Of course not.
Speaker 5 (04:47):
But how am I going to prove it if you
didn't do it? When I was there. The bullet was
from my gun, but how could he? Taylor got it
away from me. I don't know what happened after that.
Speaker 9 (04:56):
I did you not to get a gun?
Speaker 5 (04:57):
All right, you were right. Let's not go into that.
Speaker 2 (04:59):
Now.
Speaker 5 (05:00):
What am I gonna do?
Speaker 1 (05:01):
Well?
Speaker 2 (05:02):
First, you better give yourself up.
Speaker 5 (05:03):
I chat.
Speaker 9 (05:03):
They got too much on me, But running away will
only make it look worse.
Speaker 5 (05:06):
I can't help it.
Speaker 9 (05:07):
Please, Georgie, you wouldn't listen to me before. Listen to
me now. Don't be crazy. Give yourself up. We'll get
a good lawyer and maybe a detective.
Speaker 2 (05:16):
No, what do you hope to do?
Speaker 8 (05:20):
Who's that?
Speaker 7 (05:21):
I don't know?
Speaker 9 (05:22):
Who is it.
Speaker 1 (05:25):
Up?
Speaker 8 (05:27):
Don't let him in?
Speaker 1 (05:28):
Do you know you're in that? Conrad? You don't want
any problem.
Speaker 5 (05:31):
You'll give you a pop up, Marie. The building next
door is the same height as this.
Speaker 1 (05:34):
One, is men, I can get up the fire escape
to the room.
Speaker 9 (05:37):
No, they'll have the building surround it.
Speaker 4 (05:38):
They'll shoot.
Speaker 2 (05:39):
Your only chance, Georgie, Please, you gotta try it.
Speaker 9 (05:42):
Then I've got to try.
Speaker 2 (05:58):
Hello.
Speaker 9 (05:59):
Hello, I'm looking for Michael Waring's apartments of.
Speaker 2 (06:02):
Falcon You found it, are you?
Speaker 1 (06:04):
He?
Speaker 2 (06:05):
That's right?
Speaker 5 (06:06):
Well, I'm Marie Cameron.
Speaker 9 (06:07):
I phoned you a little while ago.
Speaker 2 (06:08):
Oh, yes, come in, thank you. Hosn't you call? I've
been doing some research. The story is in the paper,
and part of it.
Speaker 9 (06:14):
I want to give you the risk.
Speaker 2 (06:16):
All right, go ahead.
Speaker 9 (06:18):
Well do you prefer to be called Fulkon or miss Wearing.
Speaker 2 (06:22):
I'll settle for Mike, all right, but in.
Speaker 9 (06:24):
That case, you better call me Marie.
Speaker 2 (06:26):
All right, Marie? Now, what did you want to tell me?
Speaker 9 (06:29):
I turned Georgie into the police because I know he's innocent.
Speaker 2 (06:33):
You can't think of a better reason.
Speaker 9 (06:34):
Oh, I mean it. I was afraid of he tried
to escape, they'd shoot him. But now I've gotten him
into this jam. You've got to get him out of it.
Speaker 1 (06:43):
They're pretty good at making up other people's mind.
Speaker 9 (06:45):
But he's innocent, and you're such a good detective.
Speaker 5 (06:49):
So I hear you.
Speaker 2 (06:51):
Just keep listening to that kind of talk.
Speaker 9 (06:52):
I will if you live up to it.
Speaker 2 (06:54):
I'll try.
Speaker 1 (06:56):
Now, what makes you so sure Conrad is innocent? You
also know a gun? Don't tell me he was just
going to use it as a paperweight.
Speaker 9 (07:03):
He bought that for self defense?
Speaker 2 (07:04):
Oh sure? Whoever heard of guns or anything? Else you
think he killed Taylor? His gun did well? But that's
just it.
Speaker 9 (07:10):
Can't you see how convenient it was. Trash can was
turned over so the gun could be found.
Speaker 1 (07:16):
It was a plant maybe, According to the paper, Conrad
claims Taylor got the gun away from in the fight.
But I didn't say what the fight was about, you know, Yes, That's.
Speaker 9 (07:24):
Why I wanted to see you. Taylor was a swindler.
He sold Georgie an interest now fake silver mining project.
Speaker 2 (07:31):
How did Georgie find out it was fake? Mister Moody Toordy?
Who's Moody? Oh?
Speaker 9 (07:35):
The man who introduced Georgie to Taylor? And when he
found out Taylor was a crook, he felt terrible about
it and told Georgie right away, But Georgie had already invested.
Speaker 2 (07:45):
His Moody a friend of Georgie's.
Speaker 9 (07:46):
No, they met on the train.
Speaker 2 (07:48):
I think, where can I find Moody?
Speaker 1 (07:51):
Well?
Speaker 9 (07:51):
I don't know, but I guess Georgie would. Why what
are you wanting for?
Speaker 5 (07:54):
Do you think Moody can help you?
Speaker 2 (07:56):
Maybe in a number of ways. So if I'm going
to help you, I better get moving. Where are you
going to jail? Oh? Georgiane? Who are you Mike Wearing?
Speaker 8 (08:18):
Haven't I heard that name somewhere before?
Speaker 2 (08:20):
I hope?
Speaker 5 (08:20):
So what do you want?
Speaker 2 (08:23):
Per Perhaps you could tell me how to find Frank
More to you?
Speaker 5 (08:25):
Why?
Speaker 2 (08:26):
Well he might know something about this murder?
Speaker 8 (08:27):
And what makes you think so?
Speaker 9 (08:29):
So?
Speaker 1 (08:30):
Marie tells me that, Marie, what have you got to
do with her? I'm working for her? In fact, get
out of here now, Look, George, I said, get out.
Speaker 2 (08:38):
I'll take it easy. He made enough trouble it was,
so have you all right, Georgie? Get up? Sorry I
had a sluggie, but you asked for it.
Speaker 5 (08:49):
I don't want any help from Marie.
Speaker 2 (08:50):
All right, all right, that's no use trying to throw
me out.
Speaker 1 (08:53):
I can't get out of here even if I want
to until they.
Speaker 2 (08:55):
Make with the key.
Speaker 8 (08:56):
Oh yeah, I didn't think so.
Speaker 1 (08:58):
I noticed very interesting? What is where you blow your top?
Could explain what happened to Taylor?
Speaker 5 (09:04):
That's right, tell me I killed him. See the kind
of help Marie gets me.
Speaker 2 (09:07):
I don't say you killed Taylor, but the.
Speaker 1 (09:09):
Police do use him determined to build up a case
for them. And maybe I can help you out of this.
But I'm gonna need your help, do.
Speaker 2 (09:16):
I get it? Or do you like bars in the window.
Speaker 1 (09:18):
I don't want any help from Marie. I'm not Marie.
You're working for her. I'm working for whoever pays me.
If you want to pick up the check, fight it
out with her.
Speaker 8 (09:26):
Do you think you can do anything for me wearing?
Speaker 2 (09:29):
Probably if I can find Moody.
Speaker 8 (09:32):
I don't know where he stay.
Speaker 1 (09:33):
He always called me, oh fine, but I don't think
he knows anything about it.
Speaker 2 (09:37):
It was Taylor's come on, wasn't he?
Speaker 5 (09:39):
Na He introduced us?
Speaker 2 (09:41):
Well, that's what I mean.
Speaker 8 (09:42):
But I'm sure they weren't working together.
Speaker 1 (09:44):
Why it was Moody who told me Taylor was a crook?
Speaker 2 (09:46):
That's right after you would invested.
Speaker 1 (09:48):
Even so, it was Moody that suggested that you buy
a gun.
Speaker 8 (09:50):
Wasn't it to protect myself?
Speaker 1 (09:51):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (09:51):
Yeah, sure.
Speaker 1 (09:53):
In fact, it was following Moody's advice that landed you
right where you are.
Speaker 2 (09:58):
I hadn't thought of that. The better start thinking, are.
Speaker 1 (10:01):
You suggesting Moody's the murderer? I'm just suggesting it's worth
looking into. Yeah, that is. I had an idea with
somebody else who's been swindled by Taylor. But the way
you line things up.
Speaker 2 (10:12):
I mean the way Moody has lined you up.
Speaker 1 (10:15):
If only I could tell you where to find them,
or didn't ever say anything that might give a lead,
not that I can think of. Well, come on, think hard,
though your life depended upon it, because there's a good
chance it does this. Is it hurly, hey, friends, Well
(10:40):
it sounds as though Mike and George Conrad are going
to have to think pretty hard to find Moody. Yes,
the way you have to think when you want to
find a way to make good use of those leftover
pieces of yesterday's roast. But making use of leftovers isn't
hard at all. If you make belvy to your handy helper,
you can melt Craft's famous pasteurized processed cheese food or
(11:03):
a smooth golden cheese sauce to pour over those leftovers
for a brand new hot made dish. And this velveta
sauce is so easy to make. All you do is
melt a half pound of velveta in the top of
your double border. You don't have to cut velveta up
because it melts so easily and so smoothly without any lumps.
(11:24):
Then just in a quarter cup of milk season to
your taste, and there you have the smoothest golden cheese
sauce ever, Just the thing to pour over leftover bits
of meat or seafood.
Speaker 2 (11:36):
Or vegetables for a main dish that really tastes.
Speaker 1 (11:39):
Good, extra good because Velvita has such a rich.
Speaker 2 (11:43):
Yet mild cheddar cheese flavor.
Speaker 1 (11:46):
And this sauce is extra nourishing too because Velveta is
so rich in important.
Speaker 2 (11:51):
Food values from milk.
Speaker 1 (11:53):
Make it your handy helper mother, for easy hot Maine
dishes and for hearty snacks and sandwiches too. Tomorrow youet
a two pound loaf of the pasteurized processed cheese food
up top.
Speaker 2 (12:05):
Quality, genuine bell be done.
Speaker 1 (12:14):
No, back to the adventures, all the fulcon ten minutes
of past and smke Wearing had his talk with Georgie Conrad.
Now the Falcon dops into the homicide Dua to have
a talk with Georgian Cormack. Hello, Corbett, Well you've done
it again, are you Wearing? What have I done?
Speaker 2 (12:34):
Your usual brilliant logic. You lock up the wrong guy.
Speaker 1 (12:37):
If you're talking about Georgie Conrad, Wells, don't tell me
you pull any other bonus bonner. Hey, yeah, you're right, Wearing.
Conrad is undoubtedly innocent. That's why I pulled a sprint
when I questioned him.
Speaker 2 (12:49):
Well, he's impulsive, that's all.
Speaker 1 (12:50):
Jerry runs for color when he says a badge. This
kind of impulse I don't go for.
Speaker 2 (12:55):
Doesn't prove anything.
Speaker 1 (12:56):
It doesn't have to with all the rest we have
on him, you could be wrong. I'm willing to be
John one of you got a.
Speaker 2 (13:01):
Character who got Conrad into this Frank Moody?
Speaker 1 (13:04):
One about him?
Speaker 2 (13:05):
That's what I want to ask you. You have anything
on him?
Speaker 1 (13:07):
Yes, that he's a name Conrad gave me. He has
no record, he has no address. If that's your hot Lee,
I'd like to have a talk with him, go ahead.
All you have to do is find him.
Speaker 2 (13:16):
I was coming on him. Assist from you.
Speaker 1 (13:18):
If he drops in, I'll let you know.
Speaker 2 (13:21):
It's too good to me.
Speaker 1 (13:22):
Think nothing.
Speaker 2 (13:23):
I muna leave me, Corbett, I don't Hello, Hello, Marie,
this is Mike Wearing.
Speaker 5 (13:40):
Oh yes, Mike, what is it?
Speaker 2 (13:42):
Do you ever meet Frank Moody with Georgie?
Speaker 9 (13:44):
Oh?
Speaker 5 (13:44):
Once?
Speaker 1 (13:45):
It's enough?
Speaker 2 (13:46):
If you remember him?
Speaker 9 (13:47):
Well, I think I would if I saw him again.
Speaker 1 (13:48):
Good?
Speaker 2 (13:49):
How soon can you get here?
Speaker 5 (13:50):
Where the Hollis Hotel is Moody there.
Speaker 2 (13:53):
That's what I want you to tell me.
Speaker 1 (13:54):
I'll be right over.
Speaker 2 (14:08):
Well, Mike, Hello, Marien, fun over here. We can sit down.
Speaker 1 (14:12):
You can watch the people as they go through the lobby.
Speaker 5 (14:13):
Hi, but what makes you think I'll see Moody.
Speaker 1 (14:17):
Check with Taylor's apartment house. All outgoing calls go through
the desk there and the clerk writes down the numbers.
Taylor made five calls at this hotel the last few
days before he was killed.
Speaker 9 (14:26):
And you think he was calling Moody.
Speaker 2 (14:27):
He was calling somebody could have been Moody.
Speaker 5 (14:30):
Did you ask for Moody at the desk? Oh?
Speaker 1 (14:32):
Naturally, they say there's nobody here by that name. But
who says he used his right name?
Speaker 4 (14:37):
Well?
Speaker 9 (14:38):
How long do you expect me to.
Speaker 2 (14:40):
Until you see Moody?
Speaker 9 (14:41):
It may take all day?
Speaker 2 (14:43):
All right? If you want to help Georgie, do.
Speaker 9 (14:45):
You think Moody can you help?
Speaker 2 (14:47):
I wouldn't be surprised.
Speaker 9 (14:48):
But suppose he's checked out, or suppose it isn't Moody
who Taylor was calling.
Speaker 1 (14:52):
He can't always play a sure thing. Angel the other
one who said I have to clear Georgie.
Speaker 8 (14:56):
You know.
Speaker 2 (14:56):
If you can't spare the time, I'm willing.
Speaker 9 (14:58):
I just hope it. You wait a minutary is where
waiting for the elevator?
Speaker 2 (15:04):
Good, I'll join him. And they didn't even take five minutes?
Are you kidding?
Speaker 1 (15:09):
This is the third lead I've tracked down, and it's
the first one that was even hot enough to call
you in on.
Speaker 7 (15:13):
I'll be seeing him, Marie.
Speaker 1 (15:24):
Hello, Marie, I beg your pardon. I said, hello, Moody,
my name is Marson, but your friends call you Moody.
Speaker 2 (15:31):
Who are you? What do you want? Mike wear him
a friend of Georgie Conrad ray out? Excuse me? Oh
it's all right, friend, I'm not with you. What do
you want with me?
Speaker 1 (15:40):
Wearing tie up with Taylor and I have no tie
up with him, he led Conrad to him.
Speaker 2 (15:46):
I'm admitting nothing. Oh it's easy to prove, and I
won't be the only one you sucked in.
Speaker 1 (15:51):
Ough'll be plenty of people to identify him. I'll cross
that bridge when I come to it. Now you finished,
or do you care to commit? I haven't even started.
I'll come in very well. You're what they call a
private eye, aren't you also? Dick seamers, flat foot for
hire snooper hawkshaw Michelle, I go, I get the idea.
(16:13):
How did you find me with those credentials?
Speaker 2 (16:16):
What do you expect?
Speaker 8 (16:16):
At any rate?
Speaker 1 (16:17):
You're a step ahead of the police. They haven't been
here yet. That's good, is it? As long as we
can keep you step ahead. I didn't want to be
connected with this, and you're going to tell me how
you found out so that I can wipe out the connection.
Speaker 2 (16:30):
You'll have to wipe me out too. You'll begin to
get the idea.
Speaker 1 (16:34):
Don't reach your gun, not as long as you beat
me to it. I'd hate you to think I'm a copycat.
Now you'll just raise your hands. That's it, Rocky, Rocky, you.
Speaker 4 (16:45):
Want me, miss Moody?
Speaker 2 (16:48):
Ugh, who's a Fred Michael Waring?
Speaker 4 (16:51):
The folk it?
Speaker 1 (16:52):
Oh, that's what they call him. It must be wonderful
to be educated like you are, Rocky. Well, let's clip
the falk talents.
Speaker 2 (17:01):
We frisk him for a rod.
Speaker 1 (17:03):
H E's clean, mhm, rather careless. If you're wearing coming
here without a gun?
Speaker 2 (17:12):
I can't see what good of it? Do you mean?
Speaker 8 (17:13):
You have a point, know what, mister Moody?
Speaker 2 (17:16):
Tie him up?
Speaker 4 (17:17):
Okay?
Speaker 2 (17:18):
You should him. It won't be necessary.
Speaker 1 (17:20):
One sound out of him, and he knows you will
shut him up. You better be tied up because you
and I are going to have to make plans, and
while we're doing it, we don't want the falcon flying away. Well, Wearing,
(17:42):
how do you feel, said to be untied? You and
your boy had your confident.
Speaker 2 (17:49):
Yes, Wearing.
Speaker 8 (17:49):
So I have things to do.
Speaker 1 (17:52):
Rocky will keep you company so long I take.
Speaker 8 (17:54):
Care of him.
Speaker 2 (17:55):
Rocky. If you walk into something, mister.
Speaker 1 (18:02):
Maybe I'll get out of it. Moody doesn't seem very smart.
Speaker 4 (18:05):
Who says so?
Speaker 1 (18:06):
He should have kept up his bluff. This rough stuff
just clinches things against him.
Speaker 4 (18:11):
But who knows about it except you, And.
Speaker 1 (18:14):
You're not gonna talks only one way to shut me up.
Speaker 4 (18:16):
He knows that.
Speaker 2 (18:18):
But the place now I'm.
Speaker 1 (18:19):
Working on this case, anything happens to me, they'll know it's.
Speaker 2 (18:21):
Tied to the tailor murder. So what so.
Speaker 1 (18:23):
What becomes of the frame mood he had worked out
for Conrad. Conrad's in the poke now, so that clears
him of anything that happens to me.
Speaker 4 (18:29):
You don't give Moody credit. You think he didn't think
of that doesn't look like it. So the frame against
Conrad foes might anyway with him horor and frame. The
question is who framed him?
Speaker 2 (18:42):
And what's Moody's answer.
Speaker 4 (18:44):
What's the matter with Conrad's girl Marie? Yeah, she turned
them in. Who's to say she didn't do it to
protect herself? So that's it, that's it. And then she
hires you to make it look like she's innocent. But
you stumble onto something, so she has.
Speaker 2 (19:02):
To get rid of you. Two.
Speaker 4 (19:03):
I seem she's not in stir so anything that happens
to you will fit right into the picture.
Speaker 1 (19:11):
Well, I got to apologize the movie. I underestimated him.
The other one who's playing it dumb me? Yeah, how
do you figure that? Mood is obviously a character who
likes to go it alone. He gets rid of anybody
who knows too much about him or with whom he
has to split little blood more or lest doesn't mean
a thing to him.
Speaker 2 (19:29):
How long do you think it's going to be before
he gives you a dose of the same.
Speaker 1 (19:33):
Well, he wouldn't maybe not, But if I were you,
I wouldn't sleep so good. As soon as he decides
you aren't necessary to him, anymore.
Speaker 2 (19:42):
Okay, he just think it over. Crazy.
Speaker 1 (19:44):
I'm not as crazy as Taylor. He thought he and
Moody were partners.
Speaker 2 (19:48):
So what happened to him? I said, shut up? All right, Rocky,
you don't want to face it.
Speaker 4 (19:55):
I suppose you expect me to let you go.
Speaker 2 (19:59):
It would be the smart thing, the.
Speaker 4 (20:02):
Bel even if Moody is like you say, what's to
stop me from clearing up before he gets back and
leaving you here?
Speaker 1 (20:08):
Nothing except that when Moody gets through with me, don't
you think he'll go gunning for you?
Speaker 4 (20:13):
But if I let you go so you can finish Moody,
what's to stop you from coming after me?
Speaker 2 (20:20):
Nothing?
Speaker 1 (20:21):
But my heart wouldn't be in as.
Speaker 2 (20:22):
Much as Moody's. I'll have to think it over. You
do that and think fast, because.
Speaker 1 (20:29):
When Moody gets back, he'll be calling the shots. And
I've got an idea he has one label for each
of us. This is Ed Hurley here again. Friends, Well,
I should say, Rocky will have to think fast if
he's going to get Mike and himself out of this predicament.
(20:50):
As fast as you have to think when unexpected company
comes and you have to fix.
Speaker 2 (20:54):
Something to eat. In a hurry.
Speaker 1 (20:56):
Of course, if you have a two pound loaf of
velvet in your your problem is solved because in a
matter of minutes you can slice crafts delicious pasteurized processed
cheese food and make golden brown grilled cheese sandwiches your
guests will really go for and no wonder. Velveta has
such a fine, rich, yet mild cheddar cheese flavor, and
(21:18):
Velvita sandwiches are as wholesome as snack as you could want,
because Velveta is rich in important food values from milk
and as digestible as milk itself. Make Velveta your handy helper,
won't you? Or delicious wholesome snacks and fine hot dishes too.
Get genuine Velveta tomorrow. Now back to the Adventures of
(21:46):
the Falcon. It's a few minutes since Mike tried to
convince Rocky that he was on the wrong team. Rocky
is thinking it over, and he's still thinking when the
door opens and Moody returns. Well, Rocky, I just talked
to Conrad's girl on the telephone. She fell for it nicely. Yeah,
I asked her to meet you in half an hour
(22:06):
at Roper's grill. Now when she gets there, here's what
I want you to tell her. Just a minute, Moody,
what's that right over there we're wearing in the corner
on the desk looks like a telephone to me?
Speaker 2 (22:17):
Out of this wearing?
Speaker 1 (22:18):
I can't help wondering why you had to go out
the phone with one right here in the room.
Speaker 8 (22:22):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (22:23):
Was it because there was something you didn't want Rocky
to hear? Couldn't it be something I didn't want you
to hear?
Speaker 2 (22:28):
Well, considering your plan so me doesn't seem likely. Yeah,
how but mister mood don't be silly Rocky. And how
come you're asking Rocky to meet Marie? Why not me?
Speaker 1 (22:36):
To you?
Speaker 2 (22:37):
So I told you to stay out of this wearing.
Speaker 1 (22:38):
That's the trouble with tagging a guy for the big
sleep one way take it for me anyway?
Speaker 2 (22:42):
So why should I take orders?
Speaker 1 (22:44):
Because you can go out faster, you can go out slow.
If you insist upon being annoying, there's still time for
Rocky to make you quite uncomfortable.
Speaker 2 (22:51):
I don't think so.
Speaker 1 (22:53):
I have an idea Rocky is interested in what I
have to say.
Speaker 2 (22:55):
Rocky will do what I tell him.
Speaker 1 (22:56):
For instance, why Are you having to meet the girl
in the public place that's not wearing that because you
want them to be seen together? Of course not. Thanks,
it's very convenient, Rocky Shore wearing it's simple light to interrupt.
Are you really having the girl meet him there?
Speaker 2 (23:09):
Why are you lying a Rocky? Yeah, I do talk
to the girl on the phone.
Speaker 1 (23:12):
I hap to know.
Speaker 2 (23:13):
That's impossible, Rocky.
Speaker 1 (23:14):
For the last time. Why is it impossible, Weary because
she couldn't be reached by phone.
Speaker 2 (23:18):
How do you know, because right now she's downstairs in
the lobby of this hotel. Don't listen to him, Rocky.
Speaker 5 (23:22):
Can't you see what he's trying to do?
Speaker 2 (23:23):
Can you prove what you said, Weary?
Speaker 1 (23:26):
Go see for yourself. Only take a minute. Say where
you are, Rocky.
Speaker 4 (23:29):
He asked a lot of questions, Moody, you didn't answer it.
Speaker 2 (23:33):
I don't have to answer to him.
Speaker 4 (23:34):
Well, then answer me.
Speaker 1 (23:36):
That's your attitude. Here's your answer to drop your gun, Rocky.
He's sitting there with a gun in your hand. You
let him beat you.
Speaker 2 (23:43):
To the drawer.
Speaker 5 (23:44):
I didn't think I said drop that gun.
Speaker 4 (23:46):
Sure, Moody, like so.
Speaker 1 (23:51):
You but fool making me do that?
Speaker 2 (23:52):
People will be coming.
Speaker 1 (23:53):
That's right, mood Well, you can stop bloating wearing. That
means I've got to take care of you right now.
Speaker 2 (23:58):
Well, Moody, at least give me time.
Speaker 1 (23:59):
To how did you Rocky was a fool out of
complete pool. Now I'll take the can.
Speaker 2 (24:03):
No, you're don't all right, and I'll do this. See Corvid,
Moody didn't know my hands were untired, and that gave
(24:25):
me a chance to jump him.
Speaker 1 (24:26):
I mean, you talked Rocky into switching to your sign wearing. Well,
not entirely, but I had him worried. So he untied
me and sat behind me with a gun in his hand.
He wanted to see which way the cars lay, and
he was ready to play either side. But when he
found out that Moody.
Speaker 2 (24:43):
Was double crossing him, he was too slow on the drawer. Oh,
by the way, how did you've got Moody? Did you
get him to talk?
Speaker 1 (24:49):
Yeah? Yeah, he signed a statement.
Speaker 2 (24:51):
Good.
Speaker 1 (24:52):
I was guessing it his double cross. Did he fill
in the details? Yeah, you were right about him not
calling the girl. He just wanted Rocky to go out
asking for in order to establish the connection Rocky. So
if anything happened to either one, the other would be
blamed right, Well, one thing you've got to say for
the movie. He's a guy who went all out and
you were overlooking him from my little dope like Conrad,
(25:15):
who says I was overlooking him. Oh, come now, Corbett,
I tried to see the Moody but you couldn't see it. Sure,
I got rocks in my head. Well, now that you
mentioned Wearing Corbett, who did all the legwork tracking down Moody,
who got glass sowed by a thug and near he
wound up with a bullet in his insides.
Speaker 2 (25:34):
Who are you trying to prove?
Speaker 1 (25:35):
Who's sitting across the table from me right now with
a shiner the size of a grapefruit which he got
risking life and limb disarming a desperate killer who he
has to turn over to me when he gets some disarmed. Well,
all the time, dope be me. Can't think of anything
but rest my feet in my desk and wonder what.
Speaker 2 (25:51):
To do, and I'll wait him.
Speaker 1 (25:52):
They're wearing, I got rocks in my head. You're the
smart boy. You know something that suits me just fine.
This is Mike Wearing friends and I have something very
(26:13):
important to talk to you about. It's your safety in
an air raid. Run can't happen here Heaven knows. We
hope it never will, but we can't be sure. So
we've got to be prepared. Yes, you, me, and every
man and woman and child must know what to.
Speaker 2 (26:32):
Do to protect himself.
Speaker 1 (26:34):
There are official civil defense air raid instructions everyone should
learn by heart. If you can't get these instruction sheets
from your local civil defense office, then five cents in
coin or stamps to the Superintendent of Documents, Washington DC.
You got that Superintendent of Documents, Washington, DC, and be

Speaker 1 (00:26):
Case of the Shopkeeper's gun. It's Sunday night in New
York and in the Midtown hotel room. An ugly smile
that has almost to sneer twist the thin lips of
stocky Ed Taylor as he looks with bored and sleepy
eyes at the young man who was pacing.
Speaker 2 (00:44):
The floor in front of him. Sit down, Conrad, give
you feed the rest.
Speaker 1 (00:49):
You haven't given me your answer yet. Do I get
my money back at Donna?
Speaker 2 (00:52):
Now think about it.
Speaker 1 (00:53):
What's the think you gave me a rook? Either you
make good on it or what do I get my money?
Speaker 2 (01:00):
Commre Connery, what do you want?
Speaker 4 (01:02):
Tell you something?
Speaker 2 (01:03):
What I could go?
Speaker 5 (01:05):
That's the idea of what are you trying to do?
Speaker 4 (01:06):
Just taking precautions? Yeah, here we are, So you brought.
Speaker 1 (01:11):
A gun with you. I wasn't gonna use it less
I had had to to protect myself.
Speaker 6 (01:17):
Well, now that you don't have any protection, don't you
think it's a little dangerous to hang around here.
Speaker 5 (01:22):
I'll get a lawyer.
Speaker 6 (01:23):
If a lawyer could do you any good, you wouldn't
have come up here throwing your weight around. I hate
to keep you because I know you must have things
to do.
Speaker 2 (01:32):
Shall I show you.
Speaker 5 (01:33):
Out or throw you out? All right? Teler, you win
this rde win.
Speaker 6 (01:37):
Them all, pals, You might as well throw in the
towel unless you want to see what it feels like
to get counted out.
Speaker 5 (01:43):
We'll say about that.
Speaker 4 (01:44):
Goodbye, Teller.
Speaker 1 (01:49):
Wow, you're an old meanie, Taylor. That was no way
to treat the fellow.
Speaker 2 (01:52):
Dumb jerk.
Speaker 6 (01:54):
He had a gun, like you said he would.
Speaker 2 (01:56):
Yes, I wonder if he'll try anything else.
Speaker 1 (01:59):
I doubt it, But as long as he doesn't know
we're working together, I can always find out.
Speaker 2 (02:04):
Let's see the gun here. Thanks? Could you hear all
he said in the other room?
Speaker 1 (02:08):
Yeah, forty five. Conrad believes I'm doing things in a
big way.
Speaker 6 (02:14):
He probably won't quit. You'd better have a talk with
him tomorrow. See if he's planning anything.
Speaker 1 (02:19):
Or maybe it won't be necessary. I have thought of
one way I can kill two birds with one stone
or one bullet.
Speaker 7 (02:26):
What You're not going to kill him?
Speaker 8 (02:28):
No, Taylor, I'm not going to kill him. Well I'm
going to kill you.
Speaker 6 (02:33):
What kind of a gag is that? We wait a minute, Moody,
don't point to.
Speaker 1 (02:56):
Are you the owner of this shop? What I said?
Are you the owner of this plans?
Speaker 7 (03:00):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (03:00):
Yeah, George Conrad?
Speaker 5 (03:01):
That's right?
Speaker 1 (03:02):
How's business? What I said? How's look? Turn off that record?
Well here's a week of talk.
Speaker 5 (03:08):
Oh yeah, sure, sir, What were you saying?
Speaker 1 (03:11):
I said? The record? Business must be pretty good? Why
for you to be able to blow ten grand Conrad?
Speaker 5 (03:17):
Why who are you?
Speaker 1 (03:19):
Sergeant Corbett Police Department?
Speaker 5 (03:21):
Police? Well, what's the matter?
Speaker 1 (03:23):
He found your name and ed Taylor's books?
Speaker 5 (03:26):
Oh you've got his books? Can you prove anything about?
What about his swindling?
Speaker 1 (03:30):
Oh you think he's a swindler?
Speaker 5 (03:31):
Of course, isn't that why you picked him up?
Speaker 1 (03:33):
Not exactly?
Speaker 4 (03:34):
Then?
Speaker 1 (03:34):
What found the gun? Traced it? You bought it a
couple of days ago, that's right. Once I got the
gun that killed Taylor killed? That's what I said, Oh,
so that's it.
Speaker 5 (03:44):
But surely you don't.
Speaker 1 (03:45):
Look if I had anything to do with the shooting,
I certainly wouldn't have left my own gun there. Why
did you leave your gun there?
Speaker 5 (03:50):
I Taylor took it away from me.
Speaker 1 (03:51):
Why did you buy the gun?
Speaker 5 (03:53):
I thought there might be trouble when I demanded my money.
Speaker 1 (03:56):
So you admit demanding money. You admit you expected trouble.
You admit you went up there with a gun. I
didn't kill him, like I said, I certainly wouldn't have
left the gun there wasn't left there. It was heading
in a trash barrel in an alley. Thereby, if the
barrel hadn't been accidentally knocked over, the gun probably never
would have been discovered. Well then all I can say
is get out of my way. Hey, I right stop?
Speaker 5 (04:31):
Well hello, George, he said the door quick, I should
shut it.
Speaker 2 (04:35):
What's the matter?
Speaker 8 (04:35):
Why do I lock it?
Speaker 5 (04:38):
Marie?
Speaker 8 (04:39):
The police are after me?
Speaker 2 (04:40):
The police?
Speaker 9 (04:41):
Why what did you do?
Speaker 5 (04:42):
Nobody killed Taylor? Oh no, I think it was me.
I admitted I had a row with him. But you
didn't kill him.
Speaker 8 (04:47):
Of course not.
Speaker 5 (04:47):
But how am I going to prove it if you
didn't do it? When I was there. The bullet was
from my gun, but how could he? Taylor got it
away from me. I don't know what happened after that.
Speaker 9 (04:56):
I did you not to get a gun?
Speaker 5 (04:57):
All right, you were right. Let's not go into that.
Speaker 2 (04:59):
Now.
Speaker 5 (05:00):
What am I gonna do?
Speaker 1 (05:01):
Well?
Speaker 2 (05:02):
First, you better give yourself up.
Speaker 5 (05:03):
I chat.
Speaker 9 (05:03):
They got too much on me, But running away will
only make it look worse.
Speaker 5 (05:06):
I can't help it.
Speaker 9 (05:07):
Please, Georgie, you wouldn't listen to me before. Listen to
me now. Don't be crazy. Give yourself up. We'll get
a good lawyer and maybe a detective.
Speaker 2 (05:16):
No, what do you hope to do?
Speaker 8 (05:20):
Who's that?
Speaker 7 (05:21):
I don't know?
Speaker 9 (05:22):
Who is it.
Speaker 1 (05:25):
Up?
Speaker 8 (05:27):
Don't let him in?
Speaker 1 (05:28):
Do you know you're in that? Conrad? You don't want
any problem.
Speaker 5 (05:31):
You'll give you a pop up, Marie. The building next
door is the same height as this.
Speaker 1 (05:34):
One, is men, I can get up the fire escape
to the room.
Speaker 9 (05:37):
No, they'll have the building surround it.
Speaker 4 (05:38):
They'll shoot.
Speaker 2 (05:39):
Your only chance, Georgie, Please, you gotta try it.
Speaker 9 (05:42):
Then I've got to try.
Speaker 2 (05:58):
Hello.
Speaker 9 (05:59):
Hello, I'm looking for Michael Waring's apartments of.
Speaker 2 (06:02):
Falcon You found it, are you?
Speaker 1 (06:04):
He?
Speaker 2 (06:05):
That's right?
Speaker 5 (06:06):
Well, I'm Marie Cameron.
Speaker 9 (06:07):
I phoned you a little while ago.
Speaker 2 (06:08):
Oh, yes, come in, thank you. Hosn't you call? I've
been doing some research. The story is in the paper,
and part of it.
Speaker 9 (06:14):
I want to give you the risk.
Speaker 2 (06:16):
All right, go ahead.
Speaker 9 (06:18):
Well do you prefer to be called Fulkon or miss Wearing.
Speaker 2 (06:22):
I'll settle for Mike, all right, but in.
Speaker 9 (06:24):
That case, you better call me Marie.
Speaker 2 (06:26):
All right, Marie? Now, what did you want to tell me?
Speaker 9 (06:29):
I turned Georgie into the police because I know he's innocent.
Speaker 2 (06:33):
You can't think of a better reason.
Speaker 9 (06:34):
Oh, I mean it. I was afraid of he tried
to escape, they'd shoot him. But now I've gotten him
into this jam. You've got to get him out of it.
Speaker 1 (06:43):
They're pretty good at making up other people's mind.
Speaker 9 (06:45):
But he's innocent, and you're such a good detective.
Speaker 5 (06:49):
So I hear you.
Speaker 2 (06:51):
Just keep listening to that kind of talk.
Speaker 9 (06:52):
I will if you live up to it.
Speaker 2 (06:54):
I'll try.
Speaker 1 (06:56):
Now, what makes you so sure Conrad is innocent? You
also know a gun? Don't tell me he was just
going to use it as a paperweight.
Speaker 9 (07:03):
He bought that for self defense?
Speaker 2 (07:04):
Oh sure? Whoever heard of guns or anything? Else you
think he killed Taylor? His gun did well? But that's
just it.
Speaker 9 (07:10):
Can't you see how convenient it was. Trash can was
turned over so the gun could be found.
Speaker 1 (07:16):
It was a plant maybe, According to the paper, Conrad
claims Taylor got the gun away from in the fight.
But I didn't say what the fight was about, you know, Yes, That's.
Speaker 9 (07:24):
Why I wanted to see you. Taylor was a swindler.
He sold Georgie an interest now fake silver mining project.
Speaker 2 (07:31):
How did Georgie find out it was fake? Mister Moody Toordy?
Who's Moody? Oh?
Speaker 9 (07:35):
The man who introduced Georgie to Taylor? And when he
found out Taylor was a crook, he felt terrible about
it and told Georgie right away, But Georgie had already invested.
Speaker 2 (07:45):
His Moody a friend of Georgie's.
Speaker 9 (07:46):
No, they met on the train.
Speaker 2 (07:48):
I think, where can I find Moody?
Speaker 1 (07:51):
Well?
Speaker 9 (07:51):
I don't know, but I guess Georgie would. Why what
are you wanting for?
Speaker 5 (07:54):
Do you think Moody can help you?
Speaker 2 (07:56):
Maybe in a number of ways. So if I'm going
to help you, I better get moving. Where are you
going to jail? Oh? Georgiane? Who are you Mike Wearing?
Speaker 8 (08:18):
Haven't I heard that name somewhere before?
Speaker 2 (08:20):
I hope?
Speaker 5 (08:20):
So what do you want?
Speaker 2 (08:23):
Per Perhaps you could tell me how to find Frank
More to you?
Speaker 5 (08:25):
Why?
Speaker 2 (08:26):
Well he might know something about this murder?
Speaker 8 (08:27):
And what makes you think so?
Speaker 9 (08:29):
So?
Speaker 1 (08:30):
Marie tells me that, Marie, what have you got to
do with her? I'm working for her? In fact, get
out of here now, Look, George, I said, get out.
Speaker 2 (08:38):
I'll take it easy. He made enough trouble it was,
so have you all right, Georgie? Get up? Sorry I
had a sluggie, but you asked for it.
Speaker 5 (08:49):
I don't want any help from Marie.
Speaker 2 (08:50):
All right, all right, that's no use trying to throw
me out.
Speaker 1 (08:53):
I can't get out of here even if I want
to until they.
Speaker 2 (08:55):
Make with the key.
Speaker 8 (08:56):
Oh yeah, I didn't think so.
Speaker 1 (08:58):
I noticed very interesting? What is where you blow your top?
Could explain what happened to Taylor?
Speaker 5 (09:04):
That's right, tell me I killed him. See the kind
of help Marie gets me.
Speaker 2 (09:07):
I don't say you killed Taylor, but the.
Speaker 1 (09:09):
Police do use him determined to build up a case
for them. And maybe I can help you out of this.
But I'm gonna need your help, do.
Speaker 2 (09:16):
I get it? Or do you like bars in the window.
Speaker 1 (09:18):
I don't want any help from Marie. I'm not Marie.
You're working for her. I'm working for whoever pays me.
If you want to pick up the check, fight it
out with her.
Speaker 8 (09:26):
Do you think you can do anything for me wearing?
Speaker 2 (09:29):
Probably if I can find Moody.
Speaker 8 (09:32):
I don't know where he stay.
Speaker 1 (09:33):
He always called me, oh fine, but I don't think
he knows anything about it.
Speaker 2 (09:37):
It was Taylor's come on, wasn't he?
Speaker 5 (09:39):
Na He introduced us?
Speaker 2 (09:41):
Well, that's what I mean.
Speaker 8 (09:42):
But I'm sure they weren't working together.
Speaker 1 (09:44):
Why it was Moody who told me Taylor was a crook?
Speaker 2 (09:46):
That's right after you would invested.
Speaker 1 (09:48):
Even so, it was Moody that suggested that you buy
a gun.
Speaker 8 (09:50):
Wasn't it to protect myself?
Speaker 1 (09:51):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (09:51):
Yeah, sure.
Speaker 1 (09:53):
In fact, it was following Moody's advice that landed you
right where you are.
Speaker 2 (09:58):
I hadn't thought of that. The better start thinking, are.
Speaker 1 (10:01):
You suggesting Moody's the murderer? I'm just suggesting it's worth
looking into. Yeah, that is. I had an idea with
somebody else who's been swindled by Taylor. But the way
you line things up.
Speaker 2 (10:12):
I mean the way Moody has lined you up.
Speaker 1 (10:15):
If only I could tell you where to find them,
or didn't ever say anything that might give a lead,
not that I can think of. Well, come on, think hard,
though your life depended upon it, because there's a good
chance it does this. Is it hurly, hey, friends, Well
(10:40):
it sounds as though Mike and George Conrad are going
to have to think pretty hard to find Moody. Yes,
the way you have to think when you want to
find a way to make good use of those leftover
pieces of yesterday's roast. But making use of leftovers isn't
hard at all. If you make belvy to your handy helper,
you can melt Craft's famous pasteurized processed cheese food or
(11:03):
a smooth golden cheese sauce to pour over those leftovers
for a brand new hot made dish. And this velveta
sauce is so easy to make. All you do is
melt a half pound of velveta in the top of
your double border. You don't have to cut velveta up
because it melts so easily and so smoothly without any lumps.
(11:24):
Then just in a quarter cup of milk season to
your taste, and there you have the smoothest golden cheese
sauce ever, Just the thing to pour over leftover bits
of meat or seafood.
Speaker 2 (11:36):
Or vegetables for a main dish that really tastes.
Speaker 1 (11:39):
Good, extra good because Velvita has such a rich.
Speaker 2 (11:43):
Yet mild cheddar cheese flavor.
Speaker 1 (11:46):
And this sauce is extra nourishing too because Velveta is
so rich in important.
Speaker 2 (11:51):
Food values from milk.
Speaker 1 (11:53):
Make it your handy helper mother, for easy hot Maine
dishes and for hearty snacks and sandwiches too. Tomorrow youet
a two pound loaf of the pasteurized processed cheese food
up top.
Speaker 2 (12:05):
Quality, genuine bell be done.
Speaker 1 (12:14):
No, back to the adventures, all the fulcon ten minutes
of past and smke Wearing had his talk with Georgie Conrad.
Now the Falcon dops into the homicide Dua to have
a talk with Georgian Cormack. Hello, Corbett, Well you've done
it again, are you Wearing? What have I done?
Speaker 2 (12:34):
Your usual brilliant logic. You lock up the wrong guy.
Speaker 1 (12:37):
If you're talking about Georgie Conrad, Wells, don't tell me
you pull any other bonus bonner. Hey, yeah, you're right, Wearing.
Conrad is undoubtedly innocent. That's why I pulled a sprint
when I questioned him.
Speaker 2 (12:49):
Well, he's impulsive, that's all.
Speaker 1 (12:50):
Jerry runs for color when he says a badge. This
kind of impulse I don't go for.
Speaker 2 (12:55):
Doesn't prove anything.
Speaker 1 (12:56):
It doesn't have to with all the rest we have
on him, you could be wrong. I'm willing to be
John one of you got a.
Speaker 2 (13:01):
Character who got Conrad into this Frank Moody?
Speaker 1 (13:04):
One about him?
Speaker 2 (13:05):
That's what I want to ask you. You have anything
on him?
Speaker 1 (13:07):
Yes, that he's a name Conrad gave me. He has
no record, he has no address. If that's your hot Lee,
I'd like to have a talk with him, go ahead.
All you have to do is find him.
Speaker 2 (13:16):
I was coming on him. Assist from you.
Speaker 1 (13:18):
If he drops in, I'll let you know.
Speaker 2 (13:21):
It's too good to me.
Speaker 1 (13:22):
Think nothing.
Speaker 2 (13:23):
I muna leave me, Corbett, I don't Hello, Hello, Marie,
this is Mike Wearing.
Speaker 5 (13:40):
Oh yes, Mike, what is it?
Speaker 2 (13:42):
Do you ever meet Frank Moody with Georgie?
Speaker 9 (13:44):
Oh?
Speaker 5 (13:44):
Once?
Speaker 1 (13:45):
It's enough?
Speaker 2 (13:46):
If you remember him?
Speaker 9 (13:47):
Well, I think I would if I saw him again.
Speaker 1 (13:48):
Good?
Speaker 2 (13:49):
How soon can you get here?
Speaker 5 (13:50):
Where the Hollis Hotel is Moody there.
Speaker 2 (13:53):
That's what I want you to tell me.
Speaker 1 (13:54):
I'll be right over.
Speaker 2 (14:08):
Well, Mike, Hello, Marien, fun over here. We can sit down.
Speaker 1 (14:12):
You can watch the people as they go through the lobby.
Speaker 5 (14:13):
Hi, but what makes you think I'll see Moody.
Speaker 1 (14:17):
Check with Taylor's apartment house. All outgoing calls go through
the desk there and the clerk writes down the numbers.
Taylor made five calls at this hotel the last few
days before he was killed.
Speaker 9 (14:26):
And you think he was calling Moody.
Speaker 2 (14:27):
He was calling somebody could have been Moody.
Speaker 5 (14:30):
Did you ask for Moody at the desk? Oh?
Speaker 1 (14:32):
Naturally, they say there's nobody here by that name. But
who says he used his right name?
Speaker 4 (14:37):
Well?
Speaker 9 (14:38):
How long do you expect me to.
Speaker 2 (14:40):
Until you see Moody?
Speaker 9 (14:41):
It may take all day?
Speaker 2 (14:43):
All right? If you want to help Georgie, do.
Speaker 9 (14:45):
You think Moody can you help?
Speaker 2 (14:47):
I wouldn't be surprised.
Speaker 9 (14:48):
But suppose he's checked out, or suppose it isn't Moody
who Taylor was calling.
Speaker 1 (14:52):
He can't always play a sure thing. Angel the other
one who said I have to clear Georgie.
Speaker 8 (14:56):
You know.
Speaker 2 (14:56):
If you can't spare the time, I'm willing.
Speaker 9 (14:58):
I just hope it. You wait a minutary is where
waiting for the elevator?
Speaker 2 (15:04):
Good, I'll join him. And they didn't even take five minutes?
Are you kidding?
Speaker 1 (15:09):
This is the third lead I've tracked down, and it's
the first one that was even hot enough to call
you in on.
Speaker 7 (15:13):
I'll be seeing him, Marie.
Speaker 1 (15:24):
Hello, Marie, I beg your pardon. I said, hello, Moody,
my name is Marson, but your friends call you Moody.
Speaker 2 (15:31):
Who are you? What do you want? Mike wear him
a friend of Georgie Conrad ray out? Excuse me? Oh
it's all right, friend, I'm not with you. What do
you want with me?
Speaker 1 (15:40):
Wearing tie up with Taylor and I have no tie
up with him, he led Conrad to him.
Speaker 2 (15:46):
I'm admitting nothing. Oh it's easy to prove, and I
won't be the only one you sucked in.
Speaker 1 (15:51):
Ough'll be plenty of people to identify him. I'll cross
that bridge when I come to it. Now you finished,
or do you care to commit? I haven't even started.
I'll come in very well. You're what they call a
private eye, aren't you also? Dick seamers, flat foot for
hire snooper hawkshaw Michelle, I go, I get the idea.
(16:13):
How did you find me with those credentials?
Speaker 2 (16:16):
What do you expect?
Speaker 8 (16:16):
At any rate?
Speaker 1 (16:17):
You're a step ahead of the police. They haven't been
here yet. That's good, is it? As long as we
can keep you step ahead. I didn't want to be
connected with this, and you're going to tell me how
you found out so that I can wipe out the connection.
Speaker 2 (16:30):
You'll have to wipe me out too. You'll begin to
get the idea.
Speaker 1 (16:34):
Don't reach your gun, not as long as you beat
me to it. I'd hate you to think I'm a copycat.
Now you'll just raise your hands. That's it, Rocky, Rocky, you.
Speaker 4 (16:45):
Want me, miss Moody?
Speaker 2 (16:48):
Ugh, who's a Fred Michael Waring?
Speaker 4 (16:51):
The folk it?
Speaker 1 (16:52):
Oh, that's what they call him. It must be wonderful
to be educated like you are, Rocky. Well, let's clip
the falk talents.
Speaker 2 (17:01):
We frisk him for a rod.
Speaker 1 (17:03):
H E's clean, mhm, rather careless. If you're wearing coming
here without a gun?
Speaker 2 (17:12):
I can't see what good of it? Do you mean?
Speaker 8 (17:13):
You have a point, know what, mister Moody?
Speaker 2 (17:16):
Tie him up?
Speaker 4 (17:17):
Okay?
Speaker 2 (17:18):
You should him. It won't be necessary.
Speaker 1 (17:20):
One sound out of him, and he knows you will
shut him up. You better be tied up because you
and I are going to have to make plans, and
while we're doing it, we don't want the falcon flying away. Well, Wearing,
(17:42):
how do you feel, said to be untied? You and
your boy had your confident.
Speaker 2 (17:49):
Yes, Wearing.
Speaker 8 (17:49):
So I have things to do.
Speaker 1 (17:52):
Rocky will keep you company so long I take.
Speaker 8 (17:54):
Care of him.
Speaker 2 (17:55):
Rocky. If you walk into something, mister.
Speaker 1 (18:02):
Maybe I'll get out of it. Moody doesn't seem very smart.
Speaker 4 (18:05):
Who says so?
Speaker 1 (18:06):
He should have kept up his bluff. This rough stuff
just clinches things against him.
Speaker 4 (18:11):
But who knows about it except you, And.
Speaker 1 (18:14):
You're not gonna talks only one way to shut me up.
Speaker 4 (18:16):
He knows that.
Speaker 2 (18:18):
But the place now I'm.
Speaker 1 (18:19):
Working on this case, anything happens to me, they'll know it's.
Speaker 2 (18:21):
Tied to the tailor murder. So what so.
Speaker 1 (18:23):
What becomes of the frame mood he had worked out
for Conrad. Conrad's in the poke now, so that clears
him of anything that happens to me.
Speaker 4 (18:29):
You don't give Moody credit. You think he didn't think
of that doesn't look like it. So the frame against
Conrad foes might anyway with him horor and frame. The
question is who framed him?
Speaker 2 (18:42):
And what's Moody's answer.
Speaker 4 (18:44):
What's the matter with Conrad's girl Marie? Yeah, she turned
them in. Who's to say she didn't do it to
protect herself? So that's it, that's it. And then she
hires you to make it look like she's innocent. But
you stumble onto something, so she has.
Speaker 2 (19:02):
To get rid of you. Two.
Speaker 4 (19:03):
I seem she's not in stir so anything that happens
to you will fit right into the picture.
Speaker 1 (19:11):
Well, I got to apologize the movie. I underestimated him.
The other one who's playing it dumb me? Yeah, how
do you figure that? Mood is obviously a character who
likes to go it alone. He gets rid of anybody
who knows too much about him or with whom he
has to split little blood more or lest doesn't mean
a thing to him.
Speaker 2 (19:29):
How long do you think it's going to be before
he gives you a dose of the same.
Speaker 1 (19:33):
Well, he wouldn't maybe not, But if I were you,
I wouldn't sleep so good. As soon as he decides
you aren't necessary to him, anymore.
Speaker 2 (19:42):
Okay, he just think it over. Crazy.
Speaker 1 (19:44):
I'm not as crazy as Taylor. He thought he and
Moody were partners.
Speaker 2 (19:48):
So what happened to him? I said, shut up? All right, Rocky,
you don't want to face it.
Speaker 4 (19:55):
I suppose you expect me to let you go.
Speaker 2 (19:59):
It would be the smart thing, the.
Speaker 4 (20:02):
Bel even if Moody is like you say, what's to
stop me from clearing up before he gets back and
leaving you here?
Speaker 1 (20:08):
Nothing except that when Moody gets through with me, don't
you think he'll go gunning for you?
Speaker 4 (20:13):
But if I let you go so you can finish Moody,
what's to stop you from coming after me?
Speaker 2 (20:20):
Nothing?
Speaker 1 (20:21):
But my heart wouldn't be in as.
Speaker 2 (20:22):
Much as Moody's. I'll have to think it over. You
do that and think fast, because.
Speaker 1 (20:29):
When Moody gets back, he'll be calling the shots. And
I've got an idea he has one label for each
of us. This is Ed Hurley here again. Friends, Well,
I should say, Rocky will have to think fast if
he's going to get Mike and himself out of this predicament.
(20:50):
As fast as you have to think when unexpected company
comes and you have to fix.
Speaker 2 (20:54):
Something to eat. In a hurry.
Speaker 1 (20:56):
Of course, if you have a two pound loaf of
velvet in your your problem is solved because in a
matter of minutes you can slice crafts delicious pasteurized processed
cheese food and make golden brown grilled cheese sandwiches your
guests will really go for and no wonder. Velveta has
such a fine, rich, yet mild cheddar cheese flavor, and
(21:18):
Velvita sandwiches are as wholesome as snack as you could want,
because Velveta is rich in important food values from milk
and as digestible as milk itself. Make Velveta your handy helper,
won't you? Or delicious wholesome snacks and fine hot dishes too.
Get genuine Velveta tomorrow. Now back to the Adventures of
(21:46):
the Falcon. It's a few minutes since Mike tried to
convince Rocky that he was on the wrong team. Rocky
is thinking it over, and he's still thinking when the
door opens and Moody returns. Well, Rocky, I just talked
to Conrad's girl on the telephone. She fell for it nicely. Yeah,
I asked her to meet you in half an hour
(22:06):
at Roper's grill. Now when she gets there, here's what
I want you to tell her. Just a minute, Moody,
what's that right over there we're wearing in the corner
on the desk looks like a telephone to me?
Speaker 2 (22:17):
Out of this wearing?
Speaker 1 (22:18):
I can't help wondering why you had to go out
the phone with one right here in the room.
Speaker 8 (22:22):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (22:23):
Was it because there was something you didn't want Rocky
to hear? Couldn't it be something I didn't want you
to hear?
Speaker 2 (22:28):
Well, considering your plan so me doesn't seem likely. Yeah,
how but mister mood don't be silly Rocky. And how
come you're asking Rocky to meet Marie? Why not me?
Speaker 1 (22:36):
To you?
Speaker 2 (22:37):
So I told you to stay out of this wearing.
Speaker 1 (22:38):
That's the trouble with tagging a guy for the big
sleep one way take it for me anyway?
Speaker 2 (22:42):
So why should I take orders?
Speaker 1 (22:44):
Because you can go out faster, you can go out slow.
If you insist upon being annoying, there's still time for
Rocky to make you quite uncomfortable.
Speaker 2 (22:51):
I don't think so.
Speaker 1 (22:53):
I have an idea Rocky is interested in what I
have to say.
Speaker 2 (22:55):
Rocky will do what I tell him.
Speaker 1 (22:56):
For instance, why Are you having to meet the girl
in the public place that's not wearing that because you
want them to be seen together? Of course not. Thanks,
it's very convenient, Rocky Shore wearing it's simple light to interrupt.
Are you really having the girl meet him there?
Speaker 2 (23:09):
Why are you lying a Rocky? Yeah, I do talk
to the girl on the phone.
Speaker 1 (23:12):
I hap to know.
Speaker 2 (23:13):
That's impossible, Rocky.
Speaker 1 (23:14):
For the last time. Why is it impossible, Weary because
she couldn't be reached by phone.
Speaker 2 (23:18):
How do you know, because right now she's downstairs in
the lobby of this hotel. Don't listen to him, Rocky.
Speaker 5 (23:22):
Can't you see what he's trying to do?
Speaker 2 (23:23):
Can you prove what you said, Weary?
Speaker 1 (23:26):
Go see for yourself. Only take a minute. Say where
you are, Rocky.
Speaker 4 (23:29):
He asked a lot of questions, Moody, you didn't answer it.
Speaker 2 (23:33):
I don't have to answer to him.
Speaker 4 (23:34):
Well, then answer me.
Speaker 1 (23:36):
That's your attitude. Here's your answer to drop your gun, Rocky.
He's sitting there with a gun in your hand. You
let him beat you.
Speaker 2 (23:43):
To the drawer.
Speaker 5 (23:44):
I didn't think I said drop that gun.
Speaker 4 (23:46):
Sure, Moody, like so.
Speaker 1 (23:51):
You but fool making me do that?
Speaker 2 (23:52):
People will be coming.
Speaker 1 (23:53):
That's right, mood Well, you can stop bloating wearing. That
means I've got to take care of you right now.
Speaker 2 (23:58):
Well, Moody, at least give me time.
Speaker 1 (23:59):
To how did you Rocky was a fool out of
complete pool. Now I'll take the can.
Speaker 2 (24:03):
No, you're don't all right, and I'll do this. See Corvid,
Moody didn't know my hands were untired, and that gave
(24:25):
me a chance to jump him.
Speaker 1 (24:26):
I mean, you talked Rocky into switching to your sign wearing. Well,
not entirely, but I had him worried. So he untied
me and sat behind me with a gun in his hand.
He wanted to see which way the cars lay, and
he was ready to play either side. But when he
found out that Moody.
Speaker 2 (24:43):
Was double crossing him, he was too slow on the drawer. Oh,
by the way, how did you've got Moody? Did you
get him to talk?
Speaker 1 (24:49):
Yeah? Yeah, he signed a statement.
Speaker 2 (24:51):
Good.
Speaker 1 (24:52):
I was guessing it his double cross. Did he fill
in the details? Yeah, you were right about him not
calling the girl. He just wanted Rocky to go out
asking for in order to establish the connection Rocky. So
if anything happened to either one, the other would be
blamed right, Well, one thing you've got to say for
the movie. He's a guy who went all out and
you were overlooking him from my little dope like Conrad,
(25:15):
who says I was overlooking him. Oh, come now, Corbett,
I tried to see the Moody but you couldn't see it. Sure,
I got rocks in my head. Well, now that you
mentioned Wearing Corbett, who did all the legwork tracking down Moody,
who got glass sowed by a thug and near he
wound up with a bullet in his insides.
Speaker 2 (25:34):
Who are you trying to prove?
Speaker 1 (25:35):
Who's sitting across the table from me right now with
a shiner the size of a grapefruit which he got
risking life and limb disarming a desperate killer who he
has to turn over to me when he gets some disarmed. Well,
all the time, dope be me. Can't think of anything
but rest my feet in my desk and wonder what.
Speaker 2 (25:51):
To do, and I'll wait him.
Speaker 1 (25:52):
They're wearing, I got rocks in my head. You're the
smart boy. You know something that suits me just fine.
This is Mike Wearing friends and I have something very
(26:13):
important to talk to you about. It's your safety in
an air raid. Run can't happen here Heaven knows. We
hope it never will, but we can't be sure. So
