Well, now it is time for this week's episode of 11 00:01:23,400 --> 00:01:30,079 Mister Chameleon. The original aired Eate February sixteenth, nineteen forty nine, and 12 00:01:30,159 --> 00:01:38,439 the title is the Case of Murder and the Smoking Gun. Next Mister Comedian 13 00:01:38,799 --> 00:02:12,319 and the Case of Murder and the Smoking Gun. To night, we again 14 00:02:12,360 --> 00:02:16,360 present the famous mister Chamelion of Central Headquarters in his most famous cases of crime 15 00:02:16,439 --> 00:02:22,479 and murder, brought to you by the makers of genuine Bayer aspirin. Now 16 00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:25,639 let me tell you just who mister Chamelion is. A college man, he 17 00:02:25,759 --> 00:02:30,560 tried from childhood to live up to the name he bore Chameleon by taking on 18 00:02:30,639 --> 00:02:36,240 the color of whatever situation in which he found himself, appearing in endless guises, 19 00:02:36,879 --> 00:02:40,000 finally entering the police force, where he became known as Chameleon, the 20 00:02:40,080 --> 00:02:46,080 man of many faces, the underworld's most dreaded man. The listener invariably knows 21 00:02:46,080 --> 00:02:52,120 who mister Chamelion is, no matter which disguise he assumes, but the criminal 22 00:02:52,159 --> 00:02:55,280 he's tracking down seldom does. To night, we give you, mister Chamelion, 23 00:02:55,400 --> 00:03:10,960 in the case of murder and the smoking gun. Youthful faces and young 24 00:03:12,039 --> 00:03:15,360 laughter are pleasant things to see and hear, And the beautiful Willoughby home is 25 00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:21,759 alive with laughter tonight, for Larry Willoughby and his sister Barbara are getting a 26 00:03:21,840 --> 00:03:25,039 dance, and the cleared floor of the drawing room is filled with whirling figures, 27 00:03:25,719 --> 00:03:40,120 figures will little dream that the music is soon to be shattered. What 28 00:03:40,199 --> 00:03:44,919 was that a shot? It couldn't have been. That's just a backfire from 29 00:03:44,960 --> 00:03:46,520 an automobile. I'm sure it was a shot that came from a library. 30 00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:52,400 Look, there's Arry Willoughby in the library door, and he's holding a gun. 31 00:03:52,439 --> 00:03:55,400 What's happened? He's holding a smoking gun. He's gone crazy. He's 32 00:03:55,400 --> 00:04:00,280 gonna kill us all I'm not gonna shoot anybody. Edward Lano has just been 33 00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:17,759 killed. Somebody call the police now. A little later, we find mister 34 00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:23,199 Comedion, the Great Detective, the Man of many disguises, kneeling beside the 35 00:04:23,279 --> 00:04:28,399 lifeless body in the Willoughby library. He's saying to Larry Willoughby, as I 36 00:04:28,480 --> 00:04:30,480 understand it, mister Willoughby, a shot was heard from this room by nearly 37 00:04:30,519 --> 00:04:33,560 everybody at this party. Here's that's right, mister Camillion. And then you 38 00:04:33,639 --> 00:04:36,720 rushed out of the room with this gun in your hand. Whose gun is 39 00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:39,480 it? Where did you get it? And why did you have it in 40 00:04:39,480 --> 00:04:43,600 your hand? All right? I just tatter there. I suppose why did 41 00:04:43,600 --> 00:04:46,800 you kill this man? And who is it? He's count Edward Orlano, 42 00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:51,439 count Edward Leno, Larry, how terrible Edward. Just get out of this 43 00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:54,800 room, Barbara. I'll take care of this. I'd rather have you stay, 44 00:04:54,839 --> 00:04:58,519 miss Barbara. You are yes, he's my sister, mister chameleon. 45 00:04:58,639 --> 00:05:00,319 Barbara, Please leave. What was that's your connection with Count of Leno, 46 00:05:00,360 --> 00:05:04,680 Miss Barbara. I thought I was going to marry him, but something came 47 00:05:04,759 --> 00:05:08,600 up. What came up? He was a no good rutterer, Mister Chamelion, 48 00:05:08,680 --> 00:05:12,600 I warned Barbara against him. I'm questioning Barbara, mister Willibay. Now 49 00:05:12,600 --> 00:05:15,240 I asked you, Miss Barbara, and what was the something you say came 50 00:05:15,319 --> 00:05:17,720 up between you and the dead man? Mister Comelion, you can accuse me 51 00:05:17,759 --> 00:05:21,959 of murder, arrest me and me convicted of murder, but I won't tell 52 00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:26,160 you what came up between cod Ar Lawn and me. I'd rather die. 53 00:05:26,519 --> 00:05:29,680 Her head was turned by his title. The idea of being the condess Rana 54 00:05:29,759 --> 00:05:31,800 is what got her, Mister Camelion, I warned her, American girl should 55 00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:34,720 marry American boy. She would have married an American boy, all right if 56 00:05:34,759 --> 00:05:40,040 she'd married this man, only not a very nice American boy. What he 57 00:05:40,199 --> 00:05:44,959 is no more count Edward Orlano than I am. His name is Jim Pierrey, 58 00:05:45,160 --> 00:05:47,360 Slippery Jim Piarrey, to give you his full name, one of the 59 00:05:47,399 --> 00:05:53,399 cleverest of the younger confidence men in the business. Barbara, tell me, 60 00:05:53,439 --> 00:05:55,680 why did you kill him? She didn't kill him, mister Camelion, I 61 00:05:55,720 --> 00:05:59,079 did. Larry didn't kill him. I killed No. Don't listen to a 62 00:05:59,160 --> 00:06:00,959 mister Camelion. I show him, and I'm glad off is Barbara's trying to 63 00:06:00,959 --> 00:06:05,839 protect me. This gun, of course, is yours, Lannie. Yes, 64 00:06:06,120 --> 00:06:10,079 that's right, it's my gun. I'm afraid I'll have to correct you 65 00:06:10,120 --> 00:06:14,120 again. The gun is not yours. It's Jim Perry's, the bogus Count 66 00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:15,959 Lano's gun. Here. Look at this double leg scratched on the handle. 67 00:06:16,240 --> 00:06:19,040 That is the one thing the police knew about Peerry. He got this gun 68 00:06:19,079 --> 00:06:21,560 from a pair of his who went up for murder. We're can never trace 69 00:06:21,639 --> 00:06:28,680 it. So now let's have the truth from both of you. Well, 70 00:06:28,720 --> 00:06:32,319 I took the gun away from him and killed him. Mister Comelion, he 71 00:06:32,439 --> 00:06:38,800 carried that gun in his right hand coat pocket. And and what, Barbara, 72 00:06:39,560 --> 00:06:42,319 I knew it because he showed it to me last week when the papers 73 00:06:42,319 --> 00:06:45,480 were so full of jewel robberies. He said, I needn't be afraid of 74 00:06:45,519 --> 00:06:48,279 being held up with him with me. Then tonight I let him put his 75 00:06:48,360 --> 00:06:51,240 arms around me. I pulled the gun out of his pocket and killed him. 76 00:06:51,519 --> 00:06:55,759 That's what happened, mister Chamelion. Barbara, you're mad, you grasps, 77 00:06:55,759 --> 00:06:59,360 both of you are mad. Oh very very clever. Oh Dave, 78 00:06:59,439 --> 00:07:01,040 here you are. Yes, mister Comedion, I just got the call to 79 00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:03,680 come here on the police radio a few minutes ago. It's Barbara Willoughby. 80 00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:08,680 Mister Larry Willoughby, this is a detective serge. You take both of these 81 00:07:08,680 --> 00:07:11,639 people downstairs, Dave, turn them over to Officer Poley and have them held 82 00:07:11,639 --> 00:07:15,040 at headquarters. Further questioning, Right, mister Comelion, come along you two, 83 00:07:15,199 --> 00:07:17,199 and do you come straight back here, Dave. I'll be looking at 84 00:07:17,199 --> 00:07:24,480 the body back and two minutes, mister Camillion. And now, as mister 85 00:07:24,519 --> 00:07:29,439 Comedian looks at the body of Jimmy Pierry Ilias count Edward Orlano, he's saying 86 00:07:29,439 --> 00:07:35,000 to himself, there's something strange, something most infernally strange about this wound. 87 00:07:36,519 --> 00:07:43,600 I wonder could I be right? No, that's impossible. I'll watch it 88 00:07:43,639 --> 00:07:46,959 all about, mister Commelion. Twisters, Dave, twisters, one incredible thing 89 00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:50,160 after another, enough to make me dizzy. Well, you won't stay dizzy 90 00:07:50,240 --> 00:07:54,439 very long, mister Commellion. Look at the wound in this man's body, 91 00:07:54,519 --> 00:08:01,680 Dave, recognize him? What holy smoke, it's Jimmy very posing here as 92 00:08:01,720 --> 00:08:05,560 counted with Alano. And if I'm not utterly wrong, he was stabbed to 93 00:08:05,560 --> 00:08:09,000 death and shot to death. Did you see the wound? Looks like a 94 00:08:09,079 --> 00:08:13,680 knife first and then a bullet. But why stab a guy first and then 95 00:08:13,720 --> 00:08:18,279 shoot him? It's like killing him twice. Well that's not half, Dave. 96 00:08:18,720 --> 00:08:22,560 Two people have confessed to killing him. Well, I guess that's it. 97 00:08:22,879 --> 00:08:24,800 Yes, that would settle everything. I both hadn't claimed to have shot 98 00:08:24,839 --> 00:08:41,519 him. Nobody said anything about stabbing him. In the meantime, in the 99 00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:43,519 drawing room of the Willoughby House, which a few minutes ago was filled with 100 00:08:43,519 --> 00:08:50,679 happy dancers, we find a horror stricken group of young people. The police 101 00:08:50,679 --> 00:08:54,759 have arrested Larry and Barbara. I saw them being taken out ghastly. The 102 00:08:54,799 --> 00:08:58,320 thing to do is to make a break for it and get out and have 103 00:08:58,399 --> 00:09:03,600 the police haul us in. Must be crazy. I'm chameleon of the police. 104 00:09:05,639 --> 00:09:07,559 Now everybody here will be questioned. I'm sorry to detain you, but 105 00:09:07,559 --> 00:09:11,519 there's no way out. Which of you saw Laddy Willoughby come out of that 106 00:09:11,600 --> 00:09:15,559 door with a smoking gun in his hand. Which one saw him first? 107 00:09:15,759 --> 00:09:20,480 I did, mister comedian. My name is Charles Gray. I was dancing 108 00:09:20,519 --> 00:09:24,320 with Mary Downey when Larry rushed in with the gun, Are you miss Darnaim, 109 00:09:24,799 --> 00:09:26,519 Yes, but I really didn't see very much. My back was to 110 00:09:26,559 --> 00:09:31,240 the door, I understand, and your dancing partner here, mister Gray, 111 00:09:31,320 --> 00:09:33,360 was facing it. I wish I hadn't been, mister comedian. I can't 112 00:09:33,360 --> 00:09:37,679 believe it of Larry, and I certainly can't believe it either, mister Cameleon. 113 00:09:37,840 --> 00:09:39,320 I had taken that both of you knew Laddy Willoughby and his sister very 114 00:09:39,320 --> 00:09:41,480 well. Oh, yes, very well, mister comedian. Well, if 115 00:09:41,519 --> 00:09:45,240 you'll both step into the library with me, i'd be grateful that a few 116 00:09:45,240 --> 00:09:46,799 things that you might help me clear up. Come on, Mary, we 117 00:09:46,879 --> 00:09:50,799 may be able to help Larry and Barbara. I only hope we can, 118 00:09:50,919 --> 00:09:54,960 mister comedian, Yes, so do I I also hope that you can help 119 00:09:54,000 --> 00:10:01,279 me find the murderer. Now, are you a good friend of Barbara and 120 00:10:01,320 --> 00:10:03,840 Larry's, Miss Dannay. Barbara's the best friend I have in the world. 121 00:10:05,519 --> 00:10:09,559 You see, Larry and Barbara were left orphans. Mister Camellion about five years 122 00:10:09,600 --> 00:10:13,399 ago, and so was I. I suppose that drew us together. Larry 123 00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:18,200 acted as as sort of a protector to both of us. This his protective 124 00:10:18,200 --> 00:10:20,360 instinct may have been so highly developed that he committed a murder. But Larry 125 00:10:20,360 --> 00:10:24,679 couldn't have murdered anyone as far as Barbara. It's it's just too ridiculous, 126 00:10:26,120 --> 00:10:28,720 Barbara, Barbara of all people. Yes, I understand you're in love of 127 00:10:28,759 --> 00:10:33,360 the mister Graham. What who told you, mister comedian? Who told you 128 00:10:33,399 --> 00:10:35,200 that you did? Just now, mister Gray? The way you spoke her 129 00:10:35,279 --> 00:10:41,879 name and the look on your face, did you know, mister Gray, 130 00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:48,080 that count Edward Lano was rarely Jimmy Perey a confidence man? What a confidence 131 00:10:48,120 --> 00:10:52,039 man? Oh? No, not really, But that's dreadful when Barbara had 132 00:10:52,080 --> 00:10:56,519 been going around with him for months. Are you sure, mister Comelion, 133 00:10:56,600 --> 00:10:58,679 Are you sure about that? Positive? Miss Dannay? One more thing? 134 00:11:00,720 --> 00:11:03,279 What became of the knife that was here in this room? Knife? What 135 00:11:03,399 --> 00:11:07,480 knife? What do you mean, mister comedian? I don't understand. Oh, 136 00:11:07,480 --> 00:11:09,240 oh, yes, you mean the paper knife, the one they called 137 00:11:09,240 --> 00:11:13,519 the collector's item that Larry brought Barbara from Italy. That's it. Why I 138 00:11:13,600 --> 00:11:18,360 don't know, isn't it here? Barbara kept it on the desk. It 139 00:11:18,879 --> 00:11:22,440 seems to be gone. Why do you ask, mister comedian? Yes, 140 00:11:22,480 --> 00:11:24,720 what's that got to do with Orlando's murder? Or a Peerier or whatever his 141 00:11:24,799 --> 00:11:28,679 name was. I just wondered. That's all. We cops ask a great 142 00:11:28,720 --> 00:11:31,799 many questions, you know, mister Comelion. Yes, Dave, all right, 143 00:11:31,840 --> 00:11:35,240 Miss Downey, that's all, and miss Gray, thank you. If 144 00:11:35,240 --> 00:11:37,919 you should need us again, mister comedian, don't worry, I'll call on 145 00:11:37,960 --> 00:11:41,039 you. What is it, Dave, Mister Comedion, this place is running 146 00:11:41,039 --> 00:11:45,759 over with crooks. Benny Morgan is out there, and so is his girlfriend. 147 00:11:46,279 --> 00:11:48,159 How could they get into a swell dump like this? Well, these 148 00:11:48,320 --> 00:11:52,480 kids pick up all sorts of odd trends at night spots, and there isn't 149 00:11:52,519 --> 00:11:56,679 any The lad that we were tipped off to that he was gunning for Jim 150 00:11:56,759 --> 00:12:01,120 Pitty Hey, Yes, what a dumb bell I am for forgetting? Of 151 00:12:01,240 --> 00:12:05,799 course, that was the tip. Two fatal wounds, two confessions, and 152 00:12:05,919 --> 00:12:09,000 now two more bad ones here at the scene. Dave, this thing is 153 00:12:09,000 --> 00:12:13,159 getting more interesting all the time. What do I do about Benny I hold 154 00:12:13,240 --> 00:12:16,399 him, Dave, I'll talk to him, and after that, I think 155 00:12:16,480 --> 00:12:35,039 I'll have another chat with Barbara and Laddy Willoughby. A Short time later, 156 00:12:35,159 --> 00:12:39,600 after mister comedian has finished questioning the criminal Benny Morgan, we find him again, 157 00:12:39,639 --> 00:12:45,759 facing Barbara Willoughby and her brother Larry. Larry is saying, mister comeleon, 158 00:12:45,799 --> 00:12:48,200 why must you continue with this. I've confessed, I've told you that 159 00:12:48,240 --> 00:12:50,480 I'm the murderer, and I insist my brother Larry's protecting me. Mister commlion, 160 00:12:50,679 --> 00:12:54,879 I'm the one that shot Edward whatever his name is, Perry, Jimmy 161 00:12:54,919 --> 00:12:58,480 Perry. Incidentally, I've just been talking to Benny Morgan. Benny Morgan, 162 00:12:58,559 --> 00:13:03,759 who is a friend of Jim. Pierrey's a small time crook. He and 163 00:13:03,799 --> 00:13:07,919 his girl were at your party. Two very strange guests to have in your 164 00:13:07,960 --> 00:13:13,399 home, Barbara and Larry. I didn't know about, did I. Bennet 165 00:13:13,519 --> 00:13:18,000 had threatened Pierry's life. We're holding him despite your joint confessions. Benny told 166 00:13:18,039 --> 00:13:22,759 me something very interesting, Miss Barbara. When Pierry was courting you, did 167 00:13:22,759 --> 00:13:26,879 he spend much money on you? Why? Yes? And you thought nothing 168 00:13:26,919 --> 00:13:31,159 of it. Naturally, since you believed me to be conde Urolano. Heyes, 169 00:13:31,200 --> 00:13:33,120 what about this Benny you said? Benny told you something, mister cameleon. 170 00:13:33,200 --> 00:13:37,840 He told me that Pierry, who was flat broke six months ago, 171 00:13:37,919 --> 00:13:41,919 had suddenly gotten ten thousand dollars from somewhere. How did he get that money? 172 00:13:41,919 --> 00:13:46,600 Who did he get it from? Who? This? Barbara? You 173 00:13:46,679 --> 00:13:50,159 feeling ill? Barbara Donning, are not going to faint? No, I'm 174 00:13:50,200 --> 00:13:52,759 all right. Do you know anything about this money, miss Barrow? Of 175 00:13:52,919 --> 00:13:56,480 course not. We know nothing about Pierry's finances. And I still insist that 176 00:13:56,519 --> 00:14:00,799 I killed him, and your sister does the same. Mister Willoughby, I 177 00:14:00,840 --> 00:14:05,000 have a muddle. The innocent must be protected, now guilty must be punished. 178 00:14:05,799 --> 00:14:11,679 But there is one thing sure. It isn't possible that both of you 179 00:14:11,759 --> 00:14:24,240 could be guilty of murdering Pirie, mister cameleon. And the case of murder, 180 00:14:24,240 --> 00:14:30,440 and the smoking gun continues in just a moment. Don't let a cold 181 00:14:30,519 --> 00:14:33,480 cause you needless suffering. In spite of what some people think. You can 182 00:14:33,559 --> 00:14:39,639 relieve painful cold symptoms and relieve them fast because Bayer Aspirin is ready to go 183 00:14:39,679 --> 00:14:43,799 to work in two seconds. That headache feeling and muscular aches and pains are 184 00:14:43,879 --> 00:14:48,000 quickly relieved when you take two Bayer tablets with a full glass of water. 185 00:14:48,000 --> 00:14:52,799 And you can take Bayer aspirn to combat sore throat a rising from cold too. 186 00:14:52,759 --> 00:14:56,840 Just as all three Bayer tablets in one third of a glass of water 187 00:14:56,279 --> 00:15:01,799 and use as a gargo with astonishing speed. This highly potent medicinal gargo will 188 00:15:01,799 --> 00:15:07,039 soothe the irritated membranes of your throat, quickly relieving pain and irritation. So 189 00:15:07,159 --> 00:15:13,279 when you're suffering painful cold symptoms and accompanying store throat, first take two Bare 190 00:15:13,399 --> 00:15:16,879 aspirin tablets with a full glass of water. Then gargo with three Bayer tablets 191 00:15:16,919 --> 00:15:20,919 dissolved in one third of a glass of water. When you buy, ask 192 00:15:22,039 --> 00:15:26,120 for Bayer aspirin, not just for aspirin alone. Get the one hundred tablet 193 00:15:26,159 --> 00:15:37,759 bottle and you get Bayer aspirin tablets for less than a penny apiece. And 194 00:15:37,799 --> 00:15:41,759 now back to mister Chameleon and the Case of Murder and the Smoking Gun. 195 00:15:43,000 --> 00:15:46,440 Larry and Barbara Willoughby have both confessed to the murder of Jim Pierrey, the 196 00:15:46,480 --> 00:15:52,200 confidence man who posed in society as count Edward Orlano. We now find mister 197 00:15:52,240 --> 00:15:56,159 Camelian at police headquarters talking to the Commissioner of Police, who is saying, 198 00:15:56,799 --> 00:16:00,679 would you say you have two confessions, Tom Meet, one from Larry Willoughby 199 00:16:00,759 --> 00:16:03,759 and the other from his sister Barbara. Yes, that's right, Commissioner, 200 00:16:03,960 --> 00:16:07,879 but as you know, two confessions are sometimes worse than one. What about 201 00:16:07,879 --> 00:16:11,720 this ten thousand dollars? Where did Jimmy Peery get it? Why was he 202 00:16:11,759 --> 00:16:17,120 going under the name of Count Orlano. I think that Barbara Willoughby knows or 203 00:16:17,120 --> 00:16:19,120 suspects where he got the ten thousand, But you won't tell me that anymore, 204 00:16:19,159 --> 00:16:22,000 and she'll tell me why she broke off with a man she thought was 205 00:16:22,039 --> 00:16:26,639 Count Dolano, a comedian. What about this business of Peery's being stabbed as 206 00:16:26,679 --> 00:16:30,519 well as shot? Karena says, you're quite right. Peerry was stabbed first, 207 00:16:30,639 --> 00:16:34,159 and the weapon is still missing. The house has been searched, but 208 00:16:34,279 --> 00:16:40,519 so far there's been no sign of bloodstained knife. My guess is that it 209 00:16:40,559 --> 00:16:42,799 was the paper knife that Charles Gray referred to tricked him into mentioning it. 210 00:16:44,320 --> 00:16:48,399 The knife belongs to Barbara. But where is it, I, Commissioner, 211 00:16:48,440 --> 00:16:52,120 I'm going to look for it. I'm going to conduct a personal search for 212 00:16:52,159 --> 00:16:56,159 that knife. I also want to find out more about Charles Gray and Mary 213 00:16:56,240 --> 00:17:02,120 Donne disguise. Mm hmm, I'm going into the Willoughby home disguised as a 214 00:17:02,159 --> 00:17:07,599 representative of Larry and Barbara's attorney. My name will be Willard Hawkins. Their 215 00:17:07,640 --> 00:17:10,759 attorney has appointed me to take over the running of their home while they are 216 00:17:10,799 --> 00:17:15,000 in police custody, and I will send for Charles Gray and Mary Downey and 217 00:17:15,039 --> 00:17:29,519 talk to them about Larry and Barbara's affairs. And so it is we later 218 00:17:29,599 --> 00:17:33,079 find mister comedian in his disguise at Willard Hawkins, sitting in the Willoughby library, 219 00:17:34,079 --> 00:17:37,000 be saying to Marry Downey and Charles Gray, who said facing him, 220 00:17:38,000 --> 00:17:41,640 of course, we'll that you our best to get Larry and Barbara Willoughby out 221 00:17:41,680 --> 00:17:45,799 on bail. But I must say they're making it very difficult for us, 222 00:17:47,240 --> 00:17:49,720 both of them insisting their guilty of murder. What did you want to see 223 00:17:49,839 --> 00:17:55,559 us? For? Two reasons, mister Gray. First, then some one 224 00:17:55,559 --> 00:17:59,559 should be in charge of the running of this house. Miss Downey, would 225 00:17:59,559 --> 00:18:03,559 you for a uh proper remuneration? Oh, I'd be glad to mister Hawkins. 226 00:18:03,640 --> 00:18:07,640 I've done work for Barbara before. I mean I've helped you with the 227 00:18:07,720 --> 00:18:12,920 secretarial chores, things like that. God uh, mister Gray, how you're 228 00:18:12,960 --> 00:18:18,119 a good friend at the Willow Bays. Spent a great deal of time here 229 00:18:18,160 --> 00:18:22,119 in the house. Yes, sir, do you remember ever seeing a knife 230 00:18:22,119 --> 00:18:27,119 in this room? What sort of knife? Oh? Paper knife? I 231 00:18:27,200 --> 00:18:34,039 shably no, I never did. Why, mister Hawkins, I just wondered, 232 00:18:36,119 --> 00:18:37,279 Well, I'm very glad to have met both of you, and if 233 00:18:37,279 --> 00:18:41,519 you don't mind, i'd like to be left alone. I'll call you to 234 00:18:41,559 --> 00:18:45,039 morrow, Miss Downey. Very well, mister Hawkins. Anything I can do, 235 00:18:45,119 --> 00:18:49,559 I'll be glad to thank you. Good day. Well, what is 236 00:18:49,599 --> 00:18:53,039 it, mister Gray, I was just wondering. You say you want to 237 00:18:53,039 --> 00:18:59,400 be left alone? Yes? In this room? That it's a very odd 238 00:18:59,480 --> 00:19:04,640 question. I have business a too attent to the er police, Sir, 239 00:19:06,599 --> 00:19:10,200 I simply have business to attento. Good day, Good day, mister Hawkins, 240 00:19:10,240 --> 00:19:14,759 Spicer, and be sure to call on me too. I'll do anything 241 00:19:14,759 --> 00:19:18,480 for Barbara and Larry too. I'm as sure you will, young men, 242 00:19:18,559 --> 00:19:22,680 and especially for Barbara. I'm counting on your being willing to do something for 243 00:19:22,759 --> 00:19:27,359 Barbara. But then anyway, I think that's all now, good bye, 244 00:19:27,440 --> 00:19:34,880 good boy. That knife must be somewhere, that vanishing knife. There was 245 00:19:34,920 --> 00:19:40,920 that knife that killed Pierre. The shot was fired later. The gunshot wound 246 00:19:40,960 --> 00:19:47,039 was intended to cover up the knife wound. You see this wood paneling, 247 00:19:47,079 --> 00:19:53,079 I wondered if it's hollow. No, not this part of it yet Detective 248 00:19:53,119 --> 00:20:07,839 Sergeant Arnald searched the room and perhaps over here. Why did Charles Graham line 249 00:20:07,119 --> 00:20:11,759 just now denying that he knew about the knife when before he spoke quite readily 250 00:20:11,799 --> 00:20:18,559 about it. Yes, that's an interesting point too. Oh turned off the 251 00:20:18,640 --> 00:20:25,640 lights. Oh, turned off the lights. There's someone in here, I 252 00:20:26,200 --> 00:20:44,400 can tell now, what is this all about? Get up? How does 253 00:20:44,440 --> 00:20:48,480 that cut on your head? Mister Common It's all right, Detective Sgeant Donald. 254 00:20:48,319 --> 00:20:51,640 I knew he was coming at me, so I was able to protect 255 00:20:51,640 --> 00:20:53,880 myself. I made such an outcry that he ducked out of the room again, 256 00:20:53,960 --> 00:20:59,519 but not before I grabbed a button off his coat. Mister Charles Gray 257 00:20:59,599 --> 00:21:02,559 is a very excitable young man, and he was not going to have me 258 00:21:02,839 --> 00:21:04,759 or anyone looking for that knife. And it must be hidden in the library. 259 00:21:04,880 --> 00:21:07,400 Yes, I'm sure of it, Dave. The killer never had time 260 00:21:07,440 --> 00:21:11,720 to get rid of it. Why I told oppicer Foley to turn the place 261 00:21:11,759 --> 00:21:17,039 inside out, rip the paneling off the walls if necessary. It sure looks 262 00:21:17,039 --> 00:21:19,440 bad for Charles Gray attacking her like that. Well, it looks bad for 263 00:21:19,519 --> 00:21:22,839 quite a few people, Dave. You mean Charles Gray is in love with 264 00:21:22,960 --> 00:21:30,680 Barbara and because oh just a minute, Dame hello speaking. Oh yes, 265 00:21:30,759 --> 00:21:37,759 Polly, you did wear behind the paneling. Good work fully now handlook carefully, 266 00:21:37,920 --> 00:21:41,480 we don't want to disturb any fingerprints on it. Yes, bring it 267 00:21:41,519 --> 00:21:47,599 down here immediately. Yes, thanks fully found the paper knife, Dave, 268 00:21:47,680 --> 00:21:51,160 in a hidden compartment in the paneling. I'd have it examined for fingerprints and 269 00:21:51,200 --> 00:21:55,839 also for bluntstains. Oh, I want to check on a couple of bank 270 00:21:55,839 --> 00:21:59,680 accounts, rank accounts, Yes, Dave. Then I hope I'll be able 271 00:21:59,680 --> 00:22:03,119 to solve this riddle of a double killing. Why a man should be stabbed 272 00:22:03,119 --> 00:22:15,720 to death and then shot? Okay, Dave, is the stage all said, 273 00:22:15,920 --> 00:22:18,640 Yes, mister Camellion, there are all of them waiting in the Willoughby 274 00:22:18,640 --> 00:22:22,559 Library. Larry and Barbara were brought here in the custody of Officer Fawley. 275 00:22:23,000 --> 00:22:26,359 All right, stand by, I may need you. Have you got the 276 00:22:26,440 --> 00:22:30,400 knife? Yes, right here, carefully wrapped and protected as if it were 277 00:22:30,400 --> 00:22:38,119 a jewel of great price, which it is. Barbara and Larry, what's 278 00:22:38,119 --> 00:22:41,119 it mean? It's wonderful to see you here, But what's it all about? 279 00:22:41,279 --> 00:22:44,799 I don't know, Charles, and Larry doesn't either, do you. 280 00:22:44,880 --> 00:22:48,319 Larry? Oh, bar Maybe mister comedian has good news. Maybe that that 281 00:22:48,400 --> 00:22:52,599 crook Benny Morgan they picked up. Maybe he confessed. Oh coody, Mary, 282 00:22:52,640 --> 00:22:53,920 when I've confessed to the murder? You mean both of us have? 283 00:22:55,079 --> 00:22:59,559 Larry and Oh, here's mister Camelion. But I've known everyone. Mister Camillion, 284 00:22:59,599 --> 00:23:02,039 what is this? Why have you brought us all here this way? 285 00:23:02,279 --> 00:23:06,039 Because I thought you all had an equal interest in this case. Your friend 286 00:23:06,119 --> 00:23:08,960 Charles Gray is more than a friend, Miss Barbara. He is so devoted 287 00:23:08,960 --> 00:23:14,400 to you that he tried to stop me from finding this knife. Knife, 288 00:23:14,680 --> 00:23:18,759 Marry, it's the paper knife you gave me. Hi, yes, Bob, 289 00:23:18,799 --> 00:23:21,200 Wait a minute, mister Commedion, where did you get that knife? 290 00:23:21,960 --> 00:23:23,839 Oh? I bet the fellow Hawkins you had and here was a police spy, 291 00:23:25,119 --> 00:23:26,559 not somebody from the lawyers at all. Yes, sure, cried right, 292 00:23:26,640 --> 00:23:33,359 Charles. I was Hawkins. You, mister Cameleon, you were Hawkins, 293 00:23:33,920 --> 00:23:37,480 and in my disguise of Hawkins, I learned several very interesting things. 294 00:23:37,880 --> 00:23:41,079 One was that you lie. I didn't when was there when this investigation started, 295 00:23:41,160 --> 00:23:45,599 Charles Gray. You did not hesitate to tell me about the paper knife 296 00:23:45,599 --> 00:23:49,079 which Larry had given Barbara, but you denied the existence of such a knife 297 00:23:49,119 --> 00:23:53,960 to me when I was disguised as Hawkins. Why where did you learn, 298 00:23:55,119 --> 00:23:56,920 Charles Gray, that that knife was the murder weapon, not a gun. 299 00:23:57,160 --> 00:24:02,039 Mister Camellion, I don't understand. It's very simple, Miss Barbara count Olano, 300 00:24:02,119 --> 00:24:03,960 who was really Jim Pearry, was stabbed to death. The shot was 301 00:24:04,000 --> 00:24:10,599 supposed to conceal the stab wound, only it didn't. Charles Graham, answer 302 00:24:10,680 --> 00:24:14,240 me, who was it who told you that Perry was stabbed to death and 303 00:24:14,279 --> 00:24:18,400 that Barbara probably did it? No one. You're lying, and it's very 304 00:24:18,400 --> 00:24:21,359 foolish of you to lie. I'm not Charles Gray. This is a mistaken 305 00:24:21,480 --> 00:24:25,640 chivalry. You're not even helping Barbara now. But I don't know what to 306 00:24:25,720 --> 00:24:29,640 say now, Well, and I'll say it for you. Mary Downey told 307 00:24:29,640 --> 00:24:32,960 you that she feared a knife had been used, and she was also afraid 308 00:24:32,960 --> 00:24:36,119 that Barbara might have used it. Mister Cannie, the knife had disappeared, 309 00:24:36,599 --> 00:24:41,039 but Mary guessed correctly that it must be hidden in this room. She knew 310 00:24:41,039 --> 00:24:42,599 that Larry didn't have time to take it far or get rid of it. 311 00:24:42,640 --> 00:24:47,200 But it wasn't Mary. Yes, I know, Larry. You thought it 312 00:24:47,279 --> 00:24:49,880 was your sister Barbara who murdered Perry. You walked in here and found Peerry 313 00:24:49,920 --> 00:24:53,119 with a knife in his heart. You pulled out the knife, pressed the 314 00:24:53,119 --> 00:24:57,079 gun over the wound, the severe burns on Peerry's shirt front to me that 315 00:24:57,799 --> 00:25:02,720 you recognized the knife. You took it for granted that Barbara was the killer, 316 00:25:03,240 --> 00:25:06,359 but she wasn't. Mister Camellian, are you accusing me of murder? 317 00:25:06,640 --> 00:25:08,880 Do you actually believe I'm guilty of murder? Marry? I think your friends 318 00:25:08,920 --> 00:25:12,319 will be able to answer that question. Larry, did you find a knife 319 00:25:12,359 --> 00:25:17,119 in Perry's heart? But tell me the truth, tell me the truth. 320 00:25:18,400 --> 00:25:21,960 Yes, yes, I did. I I thought Barbara had done it. 321 00:25:22,079 --> 00:25:26,759 Charles. Did Mary Downey tell you that she was afraid that Barbara had done 322 00:25:26,799 --> 00:25:30,440 it? Did he tell you that no one must be allowed to find that 323 00:25:30,519 --> 00:25:33,640 knife. Yes, oh Mary, all right, Barbara, now't your turn? 324 00:25:34,599 --> 00:25:37,119 Why did you break it off for the man you thought was count Edward 325 00:25:37,160 --> 00:25:41,160 Alano? And who was really the confidence man? Peerry? I can't tell 326 00:25:41,200 --> 00:25:45,519 you, mister Camellion, My dear, this is misplaced loyalty. I know, 327 00:25:45,640 --> 00:25:48,519 for instance, that Mary Downey was in bad financial circumstances. Over a 328 00:25:48,559 --> 00:25:52,680 period of a few months, she drew ten thousand dollars all that she had, 329 00:25:53,240 --> 00:25:56,000 all that her father left her, and she gave it to the man 330 00:25:56,480 --> 00:26:00,000 she thought was in love with her. No, yes, you did marry. 331 00:26:00,079 --> 00:26:03,599 But once Pierry got your money, he was through with you. He 332 00:26:03,680 --> 00:26:07,519 started making love to Barbara until you. Mary put a stop to it, 333 00:26:07,559 --> 00:26:08,880 didn't she? Barbara didn't Mary put us up to it. No, I 334 00:26:08,920 --> 00:26:11,799 did not. I deny it, mister Comeleian, I deny the whole thing. 335 00:26:12,240 --> 00:26:15,480 I went around with it. Would yes, but that was some time 336 00:26:15,519 --> 00:26:18,240 ago. I certainly did not kill him, and you can't prove it. 337 00:26:18,480 --> 00:26:21,720 I think I can marry. The Knight of the Murderer was a farm of 338 00:26:21,839 --> 00:26:25,880 dance, Laddie. Were you wearing gloves? I don't remember. You must 339 00:26:25,920 --> 00:26:29,079 have been wearing gloves, and in your haste and your emotional excitement, you 340 00:26:29,119 --> 00:26:32,599 forgot about it. You forgot to leave your fingerprints on the gun, laddie. 341 00:26:32,839 --> 00:26:34,759 And you also left no fingerprints on the knife when you pulled it out. 342 00:26:36,640 --> 00:26:41,680 The murderer's fingerprints are on that knife, and those fingerprints are Mary downy 343 00:26:42,039 --> 00:26:48,559 stop. Oh no, she's not okay, down he take it easy. 344 00:26:48,799 --> 00:26:51,880 You can't get out of it as easy as that. I never get out 345 00:26:51,880 --> 00:26:56,160 of anything, never had anything, no look, not even enough money. 346 00:26:56,000 --> 00:26:59,960 Edward Jim Pierrey made love to me. It was the first man who ever 347 00:27:00,119 --> 00:27:03,039 did. I couldn't give him up. I couldn't let Barbara have him marry 348 00:27:03,240 --> 00:27:04,240 You mean you lied to me when you said you'd been living with him. 349 00:27:04,279 --> 00:27:07,720 Is his common law wife, but you were going to have a baby. 350 00:27:07,799 --> 00:27:10,599 Of course, I knew you'd stop seeing him then, Barbara. But even 351 00:27:10,680 --> 00:27:12,400 that didn't bring him back to me. So I killed him. I had 352 00:27:12,440 --> 00:27:17,279 to kill him. Poor May, Yes, Barbara, poor Mary, except 353 00:27:17,319 --> 00:27:22,079 that she was willing to let your brother die, and you too. You've 354 00:27:22,160 --> 00:27:26,319 all of you been magnificently loyal to each other, except poor Mary, who 355 00:27:26,359 --> 00:27:32,079 was loyal to nothing except her own ungovernable emotions. All right, Dave, 356 00:27:32,160 --> 00:27:45,480 let's go marry Donae. I arrest you for the murder of Jim Perry. 357 00:27:52,559 --> 00:28:11,319 And with these words, mister Comedion concludes to Night's murder case. Next time 358 00:28:11,319 --> 00:28:15,880 an ordinary headache threatens to spoil your plans, get fast relief by taking Bayer 359 00:28:15,920 --> 00:28:21,640 aspirin. You'll be amazed at how quickly Beyer aspirin works. And the reason 360 00:28:21,759 --> 00:28:25,920 is that it starts to disintegrate within two seconds after you take it. To 361 00:28:25,960 --> 00:28:29,920 see for yourself that this is true, just drop a Bayer aspirin tablet into 362 00:28:29,920 --> 00:28:33,720 a glass of water and watch what happens. Before it reaches the bottom of 363 00:28:33,720 --> 00:28:37,480 the glass, it will begin to disintegrate. It does the same in your 364 00:28:37,519 --> 00:28:41,720 stomach, hence brings relief with astonishing speed. Yes, and Bayer aspirin is 365 00:28:41,759 --> 00:28:47,400 dependable too. Its record of use by millions of normal people without ill effect 366 00:28:47,839 --> 00:28:52,759 is a record no other pain reliever can match. When you buy, ask 367 00:28:52,839 --> 00:28:57,039 for it by name Bayer aspirin, not just for aspirin alone. Get the 368 00:28:57,039 --> 00:29:02,200 one hundred tablet bottle, and you get Bayer aspirin tablets for less than a 369 00:29:02,240 --> 00:29:30,799 penny apiece. Listen next, Wednesday night at the same time for mister Comedion, 370 00:29:30,039 --> 00:29:34,640 the man of many Faces in the Case of the Man Who Expected Murder. 371 00:29:36,799 --> 00:29:40,440 The part of mister Comedian is played by Karl Swinson, with dialogue by 372 00:29:40,440 --> 00:29:45,119 Marie Bomber from the original story by Frank and Anne hummerk music directed by Victor 373 00:29:45,240 --> 00:29:49,599 Arden. This is Ford Bond speaking for Howard Claney, who was unable to 374 00:29:49,640 --> 00:30:02,920 appear. Now at last, you can get an utterly new, radically different, 375 00:30:03,079 --> 00:30:08,400 incredibly better toothpaste. It's revolutionary New Lion's toothpaste, and it's better because 376 00:30:08,880 --> 00:30:14,839 thousands of laboratory tests on scores of individual tees show that it actually gets teeth 377 00:30:14,920 --> 00:30:18,359 brighter two and a half to five and a half times brighter than any of 378 00:30:18,400 --> 00:30:22,960 the five leading brands, brighter by far than any other toothpaste. New Lion's 379 00:30:23,039 --> 00:30:29,279 Toothpaste does this because it's a new kind of toothpaste with a formula that's completely 380 00:30:29,319 --> 00:30:34,200 new, radically different, a toothpaste that cleans without soap, polishes without chalk. 381 00:30:34,720 --> 00:30:48,839 Try it. Buy Lion's Toothpaste. Listen for mister Chameleon in the case 382 00:30:48,880 --> 00:31:03,200 of the Man Who Expected Murder Next Wednesday night at this time there's a CBS, 383 00:31:03,279 --> 00:31:22,680 the Columbia Broadcasting System. Welcome back now. If you're like me, 384 00:31:22,920 --> 00:31:27,680 When the announcer stated his name, you heard Ward Bond, who was a 385 00:31:27,759 --> 00:31:36,039 character actor for quite a while during Hollywood's Golden Age, usually associated with John 386 00:31:36,160 --> 00:31:41,000 Wayne. However, on listening to it again, he actually identified himself as 387 00:31:41,559 --> 00:31:47,720 Ford Bond, an entirely different person with a long career in New York radio. 388 00:31:48,279 --> 00:31:52,640 He was the announcer for the Craft Music Hall at one point, as 389 00:31:52,720 --> 00:31:57,000 well as Ripley's Believe It or Not. He also served as a radio consultant 390 00:31:57,039 --> 00:32:02,960 for Dewey's nineteen forty eight presidential campaign. The Hummers would have known him for 391 00:32:04,039 --> 00:32:08,640 his work as an announcer on Easy Aces and Backstage Wife, which, as 392 00:32:08,680 --> 00:32:14,720 we reference, was also a production that James Mehan worked on as the mailed 393 00:32:14,799 --> 00:32:21,039 lead, which I guess goes to something about how New York radio operated and 394 00:32:21,079 --> 00:32:25,519 how so many people there had some connection to the Hummers. Now, I 395 00:32:25,559 --> 00:32:30,559 don't feel too bad about getting confused about the Ford Bond Ward Bond thing, 396 00:32:31,160 --> 00:32:37,920 because I'm not alone. I was checking the Radio Gold Index, which is 397 00:32:37,480 --> 00:32:43,599 as close as we're going to get to an IMDb for old Time Radio and 398 00:32:44,079 --> 00:32:50,480 Ward Bond's entry in the Radio gold Indeck. Most of it was announcing work 399 00:32:50,559 --> 00:32:54,720 that was done by Ford Bond. As to the case itself, it was 400 00:32:54,799 --> 00:33:00,839 actually pretty good, and his disguise didn't seem to have a point to it, 401 00:33:00,960 --> 00:33:05,119 unlike some of the more recent ones. It was interesting that you had 402 00:33:05,160 --> 00:33:09,559 this murder get so complicated because all but one person was being loyal to someone 403 00:33:09,599 --> 00:33:15,839 else and trying to cover for somebody, even if that person was innocent, 404 00:33:15,279 --> 00:33:20,839 of course, except the murderer. It also has to be said that conman 405 00:33:21,039 --> 00:33:24,480 pretending to be noblemen is a bit of a recurring theme in Mister Chameleon. 406 00:33:25,160 --> 00:33:30,960 You'd think people would catch on, but this is the hummerk verse after all. 407 00:33:30,119 --> 00:33:34,880 All right, well, listener comments and feedback, and we go to 408 00:33:35,000 --> 00:33:40,599 YouTube where Catherine comments regarding the curious case of club Foot louis excellent episode. 409 00:33:40,599 --> 00:33:45,920 Mister Comeleion is one of my favorites, and this episode was definitely a cut 410 00:33:45,000 --> 00:33:51,400 above script wise. And then I received an email from Derek. Was just 411 00:33:51,480 --> 00:33:55,440 thinking about how funny it would be if Johnny Doller approached cases like Mister Cameleon 412 00:33:55,599 --> 00:34:00,599 and put on his expense account. Two pays for fake knows this glasses, 413 00:34:00,720 --> 00:34:06,319 false teep, makeup, glue on hair. I actually laughed out loud thinking 414 00:34:06,359 --> 00:34:08,559 about it. Well, thanks so much for the comment, Derek. I 415 00:34:08,639 --> 00:34:16,119 will say that Johnny does occasionally assume a fake identity, but the most extreme 416 00:34:16,360 --> 00:34:23,320 that he really went to was during the John Lund era when he pretended to 417 00:34:23,360 --> 00:34:29,360 be a Texan and did this really deep Texas accent. In fact, I 418 00:34:29,519 --> 00:34:36,519 wonder who had the better Texas accent, Carl Swinson or John Lynn. I 419 00:34:36,519 --> 00:34:42,840 don't think we'll have a point of comparison until mister Cameleon has a reason to 420 00:34:42,920 --> 00:34:49,159 do a Texas accent. Now, the reason that mister Cameleon has to go 421 00:34:49,280 --> 00:34:58,000 to such elaborate means to disguise himself physically is because he is the chief investigating 422 00:34:58,199 --> 00:35:05,920 officer of the case that Chameleons' talents do have some value as an undercover man. 423 00:35:06,280 --> 00:35:10,400 The reason he has to go with the elaborate disguises is because they've already 424 00:35:10,519 --> 00:35:17,199 seen him, and he is also a famous investigator, and that's a problem 425 00:35:17,320 --> 00:35:23,079 if you are needing to sneak around and pretend to be someone else if you 426 00:35:23,199 --> 00:35:29,280 are famous. So of course he has to disguise himself because he's a famous 427 00:35:29,320 --> 00:35:36,360 investigator, and once again an illustration about why being famous as an investigator is 428 00:35:36,480 --> 00:35:39,760 more often a hinderance than a help. Thanks for the email, Derek, 429 00:35:39,880 --> 00:35:45,039 and now it's time to thank our Patreon supporter of the day, and I 430 00:35:45,079 --> 00:35:49,119 want to thank Corey.

We'll 437 00:36:15,800 --> 00:36:21,800 be back next Thursday with another episode of Mister Chameleon. But join us back 438 00:36:21,880 --> 00:36:27,199 here tomorrow for the conclusion of the Open Town matter, where Rester Short sir 439 00:36:27,639 --> 00:36:30,960 that every facility of law enforcement in this town is working round the clock to 440 00:36:31,000 --> 00:36:36,960 bring the culprits to justice. Yeah that's very comforting, man, but actually 441 00:36:37,000 --> 00:36:39,159 I'm not sure I was the target. What do you mean. Well, 442 00:36:39,159 --> 00:36:43,639 when I left you and Dave Sherman and came out onto the sidewalk, Mighty 443 00:36:43,639 --> 00:36:46,079 Blake was waiting for me in a car part of the curb. She'd been 444 00:36:46,119 --> 00:36:50,320 there about twenty minutes. She told me, yes, but let her fire 445 00:36:50,360 --> 00:36:52,840 those shots. Had the setup plan worked out? And I don't think they 446 00:36:52,840 --> 00:36:57,679 could very well have planned it for me? Why not? My schedule wasn't 447 00:36:57,679 --> 00:37:00,960 predictable enough. They didn't know when i'd leave city, whether I be a 448 00:37:00,000 --> 00:37:02,920 loan or not, or what I do when I stepped outside. It's a 449 00:37:04,000 --> 00:37:05,840 point, all right. My day, on the other hand, had been 450 00:37:05,880 --> 00:37:08,199 there for twenty minutes, plenty of time to arrange the thing. But why 451 00:37:08,480 --> 00:37:12,719 why should anyone want to kill her? Well, there you got me. 452 00:37:12,800 --> 00:37:15,800 I don't know. I hope you'll be with us then.
