Speaker 1 (00:02):
Hello, Yes, this is the Falcon speaking. Oh Grace, I'm
glad you called. I'll have to cancel out tonight. Angel,
I'm more jammed up. Some girl I know just brought
me a very unusual proposition and I'll be hanged if
I touch it.
Speaker 2 (00:23):
The Adventures of the Falcon starring Less Damon. You met
the Falcon first and his best selling novels. Then you
saw him in his thrilling motion picture series. Now join
him on the air. When the Falcon solves the Case
of the Talented Twins, and now the Case of the
(00:56):
Talented Twins. It's late evening in New York and the
yellow convertible tears down riverside drive. At the wheel is
George Alexander, who operates the car as though he owned
the streets. Yeah, mister Alexander is a big operator, and
the blonde alongside of him knows it.
Speaker 3 (01:17):
You woman up, Masha.
Speaker 4 (01:18):
Oh, I'm fine, mister Alexander.
Speaker 3 (01:20):
My friends call me George.

What for?
Speaker 4 (01:27):
Well, that's where I live.
Speaker 3 (01:29):
Oh I'm not taking your home, Marsha.
Speaker 4 (01:31):
Now really, mister Alexander.
Speaker 1 (01:33):
Sure?
Speaker 4 (01:33):
The only reason I consented to go with you. Was
because mister Kemp introduced us.
Speaker 3 (01:37):
You like singing a mister Kemp's.
Speaker 6 (01:38):
Club, Yes, of course. What's that got to do with him?
Speaker 3 (01:40):
Got everything to do with sweet as I owned the joint.
Speaker 1 (01:45):
Oh sure, whose idea you think it is for Kemp
to give you a job in the first place. I
didn't know any time you don't know something, Masha, you
just asked you.
Speaker 3 (01:55):
He's got all the answers.
Speaker 7 (01:56):
Well, if you don't mind, mister George, I'd like to
go home. Really, I've got a splitting headache.
Speaker 1 (02:03):
That's okay. I have my boy fix up something of
my place. Why don't you sit a little close.
Speaker 7 (02:09):
I'm perfectly comfortable over here now it's too far away. Please,
mister Alexander, you better look where you're going.
Speaker 1 (02:16):
Come on, I should be solisihab. What do you want
to sit there all by?
Speaker 6 (02:20):
You gotta hit that man?
Speaker 4 (02:26):
You're not going to leave the line there?
Speaker 3 (02:29):
Why not? You may be dead and we can't do
any goods.
Speaker 6 (02:32):
Let me out.
Speaker 3 (02:34):
Get your hand up that door, Masha. I'll let you go.
Speaker 1 (02:37):
And I'm getting ready and I'm not ready yet.
Speaker 6 (02:53):
Yes, I'm looking for Michael.
Speaker 1 (02:56):
Wearing well, you come to the right place.
Speaker 6 (02:58):
Are you the one they call the foot when they can't.
Speaker 1 (03:01):
Think of anything worse? Come on in, miss s.
Speaker 6 (03:04):
Davis, Ruth Davis, sit down?
Speaker 3 (03:08):
Thanks?
Speaker 1 (03:10):
Now, what can I do for you?
Speaker 4 (03:11):
I'm not quite sure.
Speaker 8 (03:13):
Did you happen to notice an item in this morning's
paper about a man being killed in a hit and run.
Speaker 6 (03:18):
Accident last night?
Speaker 1 (03:19):
Yeah?
Speaker 6 (03:20):
That man was my father?
Speaker 1 (03:22):
Oh, I'm sorry.
Speaker 6 (03:24):
I want you to find the driver of that car.
Why isn't it obvious.
Speaker 8 (03:28):
That man murdered my daddy? Murdered him just as surely
as if he used a gun. I don't care what it.
Speaker 1 (03:33):
Costs, Angel, I'd be lying if I didn't tell you
that anything you invest in a case like this is
it'd be money thrown down the sewer. As I recall,
the police don't have a single lead.
Speaker 6 (03:42):
We yes, they do.
Speaker 8 (03:43):
There was a man named Arthur Crane who witnessed the accident.
He might know more than he's told them.
Speaker 1 (03:49):
What makes you think so.
Speaker 6 (03:50):
Call it a woman's intuition?
Speaker 1 (03:53):
You know that's greatly overrated.
Speaker 6 (03:54):
Maybe, but there's no harm in trying.
Speaker 1 (03:58):
What did you say? This witness's name was.
Speaker 6 (03:59):
Again Arthur Crane.
Speaker 1 (04:03):
Crane all right, Angel, I'll do what I can here.
It is Audi Alexander, George real Estate seventeen ninety two.
Speaker 9 (04:23):
Belmore, it's Elwood O six seven for two.
Speaker 1 (04:27):
Wonder if that's the right Alexander?
Speaker 9 (04:29):
It has to be.
Speaker 1 (04:30):
Didn't the license bewer tell you that was the name
of the party who owned the car? Yep, well it's
the only George Alexander in the book. All right, hand
me the phone? Was that number again?
Speaker 9 (04:40):
Elwood? Oh six seven?
Speaker 1 (04:42):
To see that is well?
Speaker 9 (04:44):
Expecting anyone?
Speaker 1 (04:45):
Nope, too early for Jack to drop around just a second?
Speaker 3 (04:52):
Yeah, you want the crane?
Speaker 1 (04:54):
No again? Who is it?
Speaker 9 (04:55):
Bid? It's some guy who wants to see you.
Speaker 1 (04:58):
Are you doing, miss Crane? How do you do? My
name is Mike Wearing. I'm a private detective. Private detective.
At the moment, I'm working for Ruth Davis. Who Ruth Davis.
She's the daughter of the man who was killed last
night and that hit and run accident. Oh, we'll sit down,
won't you. Pete? See if we got any beer on ice?
Don't bother mister Jordan.
Speaker 9 (05:17):
Pete Jordan, and it's no bothered door.
Speaker 1 (05:19):
Yeah, go on, Pete. Now, what can I do for
you wearing well. According to the police blodder, you were
the one who discovered Davis's body after the accident. That's right.
I was coming home from a club date. Club date,
I'm a musician. I played piano with a small combo
round time, we'll go on. Well, just I got out
of the subway and I saw this guy Davis, laying
in the gutter. What time was that, Oh, must have
(05:40):
been around quarter past three. First I thought it was
just some stupa, you know, I saw that briefcase under
his arm. Then I realized must have been an accident.
You couldn't have gotten that much after it happened, that's
the cap stil me. You didn't notice any sign of
a car run, Nope, and it couldn't have been too
many cars out of that hour. This is very important
to my client caring. If there was any way I
(06:00):
could possibly help you, I'd be glad to him. Any
driver pulls or something like that, I'll get it in
the neck. Yeah. Sure, but you can't tell me any
more in you had I had a thing. I'm sorry,
I wish I could.
Speaker 9 (06:10):
Well, here's you being gents.
Speaker 1 (06:11):
I'll have to ask for rain check. Jordan. You going already. Yeah,
I got to but I'll leave my card. If you
think of anything, just leave it to me worrying. If
I think of anything, I don't know what to do. Yeah,
(06:37):
is mister George Alexander around who wants to know? My
name is Aldie Crane. But I don't think it'll mean
much to him. Just so, I'd like to talk to
him about a Yellow Bully convertible. What tell him I
admire his taste in cars?
Speaker 2 (06:50):
Yeah, nuts, mister Alexander doesn't already convertible.
Speaker 1 (06:54):
That's not what the license bureau tell me. Maybe you
better come in. Yeah, maybe a better should I'll get Alexander.
It's a nifty looking piano he's got there. Mind if
I try it?
Speaker 9 (07:07):
Just so you don't break it?
Speaker 1 (07:12):
Do do? That's very brilly misname you like?
Speaker 3 (07:23):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (07:24):
What do you call it? I've got those? Gimme gimme blues.
Speaker 3 (07:30):
It's a very original title.
Speaker 1 (07:32):
I'm a very original guy, mister Alexander. So well, ninety
nine guys out of one hundred who know what I
know would have spilled everything to the cops. But not sure.
Huh m hmmm. Little already knows when to keep his
mouth shut for instance, sip out of this finch, go on, Gane. Well,
for instance, last night, I was coming home late and
(07:54):
I saw a car bowl over some character who was
crossing the street. Fortunately I had enough presence of mind
to copy down the license number. And you think this
card belongs to me, You're wrong, Okay, I'm perfectly willing
to leave it to Mike wearing the falcon. That's right.
(08:15):
He's working for the daughter of the poor slab who
got hit. He was around to see me this afternoon.
I wanted to know if I could help him, and
you told him not a thing. I thought I could
help you more? How much more about ten thousand dollars worth?
Well you did let go. Shouldn't be so free with
your hands. You shouldn't blame him. Mary Vince never liked back. Well,
(08:40):
a little pushing around is going to cost you one
of the five Alexander, Well, I take it easy. Events
you think the money was coming out of your pocket,
So now you want fifteen thousand dollars ayati, Otherwise I
go straight to wearings and from there to the cops,
where I wouldn't want you to make such a trip
on my account. Then you better get it up Okay, Yatie,
(09:00):
you'll leave it to me. I'll take care of you
when I get through. I bet you don't complain. Aw
(09:25):
Back to the Adventures of the Falcon.
Speaker 2 (09:30):
Two hours have passed since Artie Krane made his little
call on mister Alexander. Now we find Mike making a
call of his own, only his isn't nearly as successful.
Speaker 6 (09:41):
So when you come right down to it, mister Warren,
you've made no progress at all.
Speaker 1 (09:45):
Well, I could give you a big song and dance.
Speaker 6 (09:47):
Frus no thanks, I mean no mood for entertainment.
Speaker 1 (09:50):
You see, the truth of the matter is I'm stimied.
The only potential witness we had was this musician Ardy.
Speaker 6 (09:55):
Crane, and he couldn't tell you anything.
Speaker 1 (09:57):
Uh, not a single solitary th Don't wait a minute.
What's the matter that briefcase your father was carrying?
Speaker 6 (10:05):
That won't help you. They found it clear across the
street where it was knock by the car well.
Speaker 1 (10:09):
If it was not there by the say that again,
why this Ardie Crane character told me he realized that
it wasn't some drunk sleeping it off. When you noticed
the briefcase under your father's arm. What's wrong with that
he just said it Angel the car sent that briefcase flying.
If Crane saw it under your father's arm, it could
only have been while your father was alive.
Speaker 6 (10:29):
Then Crane was lying that he was what you think?
Speaker 1 (10:31):
I think I ought having a little talk with that boy.
Let's see if we can get him up here. He
won't suspect anything, not if it's put to him the
right way.
Speaker 4 (10:39):
What are you chilling?
Speaker 1 (10:40):
Don't you worry? Hello? And I can speak to Artie Crane. Please,
Mike Wearing isn't here? Is Pete?
Speaker 9 (10:49):
Jordan?
Speaker 5 (10:50):
Ah? Pete isn't here either?
Speaker 1 (10:52):
Where is everybody?
Speaker 5 (10:53):
Unless there's been a change in plans, you might try
the mark. Hello, you're still there, mister.
Speaker 1 (10:58):
Yeah, I'm just waiting for the top right. Hey, wait
a minute, is this sergeant Carpet?

what to home?
Speaker 9 (11:12):
Well?
Speaker 5 (11:12):
Home is your friend, Artie Crane? The wat was a
half dozen sluts through his hat. As far as the
who is concerned, we got no idea. Have you missed

Speaker 1 (11:39):

I asked for one the last time I was here.
Speaker 9 (11:44):
Oh yeah, well, I guess you heard about Artie.
Speaker 1 (11:50):
That is piano.
Speaker 9 (11:51):
Yeah, I think he'll never touch it again.
Speaker 1 (11:56):
Just how good was he on it?
Speaker 9 (11:58):
Oh, you can have the duke and count base. He
had to take an ardie anytime.
Speaker 1 (12:02):
You're a musician too, Yeah, but I wasn't in his class.
I used to sing a little. How about an audition?
What do you mean? We're never gonna tell Pete? I
may want to sponsor you. So let's hear how well
you're doing the voice department? Who killed Artie?
Speaker 9 (12:18):
Look, you can't talk to me like that?
Speaker 1 (12:21):

Your thing brother wasn't around. It's me yu before we
have a soul on who killed Artie?
Speaker 9 (12:29):
Should?
Speaker 1 (12:30):
I know? You should if anyone would? Who had it
in for him?
Speaker 9 (12:32):
And everybody liked him?
Speaker 1 (12:33):
So one of us admirers pumped six slugs into his face?
Or even his own mother would recognize him. Incidentally, how
did you there wasn't a thing on the body?
Speaker 9 (12:41):
Well, I found him here.
Speaker 1 (12:42):
Might have been a visitor from Mars. Yeah, but he
had a flag tattooed on his shoulder. Patriot no less?
Who was the hit and run driver killed Davis? I
don't know what you mean I should do, Pete. Oddie
must have told you everything he saw the car that
killed Davis.
Speaker 9 (12:55):
No, I know he didn't.
Speaker 1 (12:56):
You know you won't look so good singing without those
dazzling white tee. Well, it's a fellow named Alexander. Does
this fellow have a first name?
Speaker 9 (13:04):
George?
Speaker 1 (13:07):
You mean Arthur tried to shake down George Alexander. You
know him well enough to realize that Artie made a
serious mistake trying it. Let's hope we all profit by his.

I don't understand you.
Speaker 1 (15:03):
Wearing wilet stamens from the manslaughter charge Mansei mm hmm,
for killing Ralph Davis with your car last night. You know,
mister Dia could tell this story very effectively. It's got
a wonderful moorrow how one crime leads to another. Now
the opening scene would show you driving along get out. Well,
you might let me finish George. It's got great grammatic possibility.
You heard him get up? Who's this little sireca? If
(15:25):
you're not out of here with the time I count through,
I mean you're not interested in how my little script?
Then no, and you keep up like this, Mike, and
you won't be around for the end.
Speaker 6 (15:46):

Speaker 7 (15:58):
Antel, sure I was a fool not to see it before,
but we'll see what the police says.
Speaker 1 (16:03):
I said, Oh, you listen to me, Ruth. I walk
out on Alexander because there was nothing I could do.
Speaker 6 (16:09):
You know, we ran over my father.
Speaker 1 (16:10):
Sure I do it with our evidence. There isn't any
way I could tie it to him, the only witness
was murdered. Well, well, what you know he murdered Arthur Crane.
Can you prove that?
Speaker 6 (16:19):
Well, it stands to reason.
Speaker 1 (16:21):
Angel, you can build as good a case against several
other people who, for example, for example, you what sure
you and you AREDI Crane could identify the man who
killed your father, and when he refused to give you
any information, you murdered him.
Speaker 6 (16:35):
What's the most ridiculous?
Speaker 1 (16:36):
Yes, wearing that's right.
Speaker 4 (16:39):
My name's Marshall West. I don't know if you remember me.
Speaker 1 (16:41):
Oh, you underestimate your charms, Marsham. You're the kind of
a girl, my kind of man could never forget. Well,
I'd like to talk to you. What would be the point?
I thought you were a close friend of Alexander's. I
was in his car.
Speaker 4 (16:54):
Yes, he was taking me home when he killed that man.
Speaker 1 (16:56):
Where are you now at the place where I work?
Speaker 4 (16:58):
It's called a TikTok club? When can I expect you?
Speaker 1 (17:01):
Just open your door? Angel, I'm practically there, now, come on.
Speaker 9 (17:16):
You creep snap into it. We haven't got all night.
The show goes on in a few Yeah, what do
you want mister?
Speaker 1 (17:22):
Where's Marshall West dressing? Room, the first one on your left.
That's one hair.
Speaker 9 (17:26):
Yeah, that's right, I know, keep it too long?
Speaker 1 (17:28):
She's on it ten minutes. Come on, Marsha, Marsha, she
ain't here wearing what?
Speaker 8 (17:37):

Speaker 3 (17:40):
Doctor doll Vans.
Speaker 1 (17:42):
All right? Where is she? George? Soon? Marsha? She called
me from here not more than fifteen minutes ago. You say,
events was it that old hag with the mop? And
you boys want to try television? That's a great act
you've got there. I'm glad you like it.
Speaker 3 (17:57):
What am I?
Speaker 1 (17:57):
She tell you on the phone? Who don't be smart?
And I just wanted to show you that two could
play that game? What's you tell him? Enough? You know
I wouldn't need much excuse to paste you one right now? Buster, sit,
don't tempt me. What do you say, Mike? I say,
you boys aren't very smart. There are a dozen people
out there and they all work for me to start talking.
Speaker 3 (18:16):
Well, why you hear um?
Speaker 9 (18:21):
Now?
Speaker 3 (18:21):
Why you want to knock him down? For Vince?
Speaker 1 (18:25):
You only gotta pick him up again.
Speaker 9 (18:26):
That's all right, Alex, I'm in very good shape. I
can keep this up all.
Speaker 5 (18:46):
Well, Sleeping beauty, I didn't even have to kiss you
to wake up.
Speaker 3 (18:50):
Huh.
Speaker 5 (18:51):
Yeah, this isn't a princess palace. It's Bellevue Hospital and
no kidding. Okay, Mike, who slugs you first?
Speaker 1 (18:58):
I want to know where you found me, Sergeant State Street?
How did I get down there?
Speaker 5 (19:02):
I can tell you one thing. I don't think you
made it on foot.
Speaker 1 (19:06):
Someone must have given me a lift. Oh, character named
Vince working at the behest of George Alexander. What do
they want to do that for? Because Alexander was the
one who drove the car that killed Ralph Davis last night?
Speaker 9 (19:16):
Last night?
Speaker 1 (19:18):
What was this Sunday? Where have you ben?
Speaker 3 (19:20):
Don't file answering?
Speaker 1 (19:21):
I know right all right? What day is? It's Monday?
Holy smoke? Whiz marsha Oh, Marshall West. She was in
the car when Alexander killed Davis. She'd tell you that, yes,
And I wouldn't be surprised if she knew all about
the Ardie Crane killing two. Is that tied up with this? Definitely?
You see Crane tried to blackmail Alexander, and he thinks,
so fast? Can you approve that? No? I can't, hear Corbett.
(19:44):
So let's go where I can all back to the
Adventures of the Falcon.
Speaker 2 (20:05):
A half hour has passed since Mike Waring set out
with Sergeant Cobbett to try to tie the case together.
That destination the apartment of George Alexander.
Speaker 3 (20:15):
You're a pretty sick man wearing you don't know what
you're saying.
Speaker 1 (20:18):
It's no use, George, you got all the evidence we need, right, Sergeant, Right,
So why don't I hear from the district attorney? You
will shortly. He's still bluffing. Mike A murdered All right? Then?
How do I know you paid off to Oddie Crane?
You know, yes, and I can prove it.
Speaker 5 (20:33):
I buy that, mister Alexander.
Speaker 1 (20:35):
Well, you see, it's like this, Sergeant. It was no shakedown.
I gave out it the money. Oh, because you were
impressed by his musical talents and wanted to see him
further his career. Where Mike, you take the words right
out of my moud. Oh no, something wrong. You don't
think the d A'll buy that?
Speaker 5 (20:52):
Why not?
Speaker 1 (20:53):
It was okay for me to help young ladies interested
in musical careers? Why not young men? Times lago mon Corbett,
be smart. You don't believe that I didn't say it head.
Speaker 5 (21:02):

That's all.
Speaker 1 (21:05):
Eh, where's Vince Well? I want to talk to him.

You're gonna have a long wait. Vince lived down Friday night.
Speaker 1 (21:13):
Friday. Yeah, I suppose that was his double who bounced
me around backstage at the TikTok club on Saturday. I
don't know what you're talking about. Sure, next you'll say
you never heard of a girl named Marsha West.
Speaker 3 (21:25):
Gosh, oh, I swear that you call me George Marsha.
This is the girl you mean?
Speaker 1 (21:33):
All right, never mind the act, George. Let's marsh him.
It's a sergeant Corbett. I want you to tell him everything, everything, yes,
beginning with your call to me on Saturday night, Mike,
call to you, don't you remember?
Speaker 7 (21:45):
I don't see how I could be expected to mister Waring,
seeing this is the first time we've met. What But
it's been a real pleasure to do it again sometimes,
you know.
Speaker 5 (22:05):
Mike, Maybe we ought to go back to the hospital.
It's not a bad place. They got a couple of
good looking nurses there.
Speaker 1 (22:11):
Yay, Okay, so I'm not sergeant, but just humor me
a couple of minutes more.
Speaker 5 (22:14):
I still don't say what you're gonna accomplish with Pete, Jordan.
Speaker 1 (22:18):
I tell you he knows that Oddie Crane went to
see Alexander, and still.
Speaker 5 (22:21):
Don't prove anything. Crane could have gone to see Alexander
for a million reasons.
Speaker 1 (22:25):
We suppose Pete's willing to swear that. Yeah, well if
it isn't the gay Troubadour, Hello, Pete, remember me?
Speaker 9 (22:32):
I look wearing.
Speaker 1 (22:33):
I'm busy, Sure you are. This won't take much of
your time. Did naughty Crane tell you he saw the
car that killed Ralph Davis in that accident? Well, well
didn't he? Yeah? Can't you call it?
Speaker 3 (22:46):
Jordan, we're going downtown.
Speaker 1 (22:48):
I don't rushium, Sergeant, you might break the spell. As
long as Peet's in the mood for singing, maybe he'll
be willing to croon you something else. I told you
everything I know, not quiet. There's one song you forgot,
the one that goes I killed my best friend and
am I sorry? What are you talking about the murder
of Ardie Crane? You know enough about that to give
us a complete chorus, So start singing pigeon how girls.
(23:21):
That's the whole story. Alexander goes up for manslaughter and
Pete Jordan for murder. Any questions I have won mine?
Speaker 6 (23:28):
So have I.
Speaker 1 (23:28):
I think Marshall's first groupe. All right, go on, Marsha.
Speaker 4 (23:32):
Well, first, I think I owe you an explanation.
Speaker 1 (23:34):
Yes, I wouldn't be surprised.
Speaker 4 (23:36):
Well, Alexander made me say I didn't know you. He
and Vince caught me phoning you that night.
Speaker 1 (23:39):
Yes, I figured as much.
Speaker 4 (23:41):
He's afraid of what he might do, not only to me,
but to you.
Speaker 6 (23:45):
Well, I thought she had a question to ask.
Speaker 4 (23:49):
Oh, well, all I wanted to know is what made
you suspect Pete Jordan?
Speaker 1 (23:54):
Very simple thing, Angel, As you recalled. When the police
found the Ardie, there was nothing on him. So oh,
the question arises, Ruth, what happened to the hush money
Alexander paid him? I don't get I pulled one bluff
on Alexander. That works. The only reason he admitted giving
money to Ottie was that he thought I could prove
he did and you couldn't. No, because there was no
money found on the body, and in stood the reason
(24:15):
that Alexander and Vince didn't remove it, otherwise they would
have known I was bluffing. So I figured maybe this
was just a plane everyday murder for money.
Speaker 7 (24:23):
And once you realize that it was just a matter
of picking out the only party who had the opportunity.
Speaker 1 (24:27):
That's right, Matt gave me Pete Jordan. But I'll tell
you one thing this business taught me what never take
a case where two beautiful women are involved. Makes for
complications how soon? Well, it's too much of a good thing,
you know, the old saying two's company, threes a crowd.
Speaker 6 (24:43):
He's got a point there, root, he certainly hap No.
Speaker 1 (24:45):
No, no, no, don't fight. I'm sure we can settle
as peaceably. I'm sure we can. That's the spirit. Now,
how are we going to work it? That's easy? Good night,
mister wearing
