The jump boat Pop Galveston. The crew was so good about 33 00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:45,759 it. Sparrow the acting funny ever since the boat pulled out of Absterdam. 34 00:03:46,560 --> 00:03:51,280 Come Galveston.

This is one place Sparrow wouldn't ever 40 00:04:13,159 --> 00:04:15,680 show up. They didn't left the show sooner or later. And when he 41 00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:33,959 does, let's get out of here. Salon pop salon. Yeah, they 42 00:04:34,160 --> 00:04:42,519 left, Sparrow. I guess they believe you are he sure did. I 43 00:04:42,720 --> 00:04:46,600 offered to let him search the ship. They was too sparse. Figured if 44 00:04:46,639 --> 00:04:51,480 you was really on board, I wouldn't have offered, so they went away. 45 00:04:53,759 --> 00:04:59,319 Thanks listen, Yeah, he's a fiber. Why do you want to 46 00:04:59,399 --> 00:05:00,839 dup them so bad? Oh? I told you, you know, I 47 00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:04,680 told them some money. I ain't got it. Hey take the five hour. 48 00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:11,680 That isn't the way they told us what isn't the way you owe them 49 00:05:11,959 --> 00:05:15,800 a few bucks? In the way they figured it, it was fifty thousand. 50 00:05:16,279 --> 00:05:21,959 You're crazy in stones, they said, where are they? Mister Sparrell, 51 00:05:23,040 --> 00:05:26,720 I said, you're crazy. You can see it again if it makes 52 00:05:26,759 --> 00:05:31,240 you feel any better. I think maybe I'll take a look away from the 53 00:05:31,360 --> 00:05:34,560 back. But mister Sparrow, I've got a gun. I'm a warrior. 54 00:05:34,800 --> 00:05:40,639 Better keep clear of me. What a fool? What good a fifty thousand 55 00:05:41,120 --> 00:06:17,519 dead break? You on a fool? Wash out? No? Apparently, 56 00:06:17,680 --> 00:06:24,240 Yes, I was just about to curl up in front of the fire with 57 00:06:24,399 --> 00:06:28,759 a bottle of shut iron, sleep and sleep. Well, maybe I don't 58 00:06:28,800 --> 00:06:35,360 need tablets to soothe my nerves. Come in, Thank you, mister Champter. 59 00:06:36,120 --> 00:06:40,839 My name is Susan Sparrow. Yeah, it sounds very demure, are 60 00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:44,480 you? Isn't that the kind of thing you should find out for yourself, 61 00:06:44,759 --> 00:06:49,920 Miss Sparrow or missus missus and I could always ask your husband if you can 62 00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:54,519 find him. I can't. That's why I've come to you. Oh, 63 00:06:54,600 --> 00:06:58,199 I see somebody lost him. Well. He was supposed to have reached New 64 00:06:58,319 --> 00:07:01,759 York three days ago, the steamship x Brook. Oh he was a passenger, 65 00:07:01,959 --> 00:07:04,879 no one of the crew. He hasn't come home. Mister Templer, 66 00:07:05,079 --> 00:07:09,600 you waited three days before doing anything about it. Well, of course, 67 00:07:09,879 --> 00:07:13,360 because we live in Cleveland. Oh, which means you'd have allowed him a 68 00:07:13,480 --> 00:07:15,560 day to get there, a day's wait before you got alarmed, and a 69 00:07:15,720 --> 00:07:19,879 day for you to come here. All right. Can you think of any 70 00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:26,000 reason why he wouldn't have come to Cleveland, can you? Well? Of 71 00:07:26,120 --> 00:07:30,920 course he may not feel the same way I do about about Cleveland. You've 72 00:07:31,120 --> 00:07:34,480 got in touch with the ship's captain. No, you see, Frank, 73 00:07:34,879 --> 00:07:40,000 my husband didn't want anyone to know he was married. He shy. I 74 00:07:40,079 --> 00:07:45,319 don't know. Well, he's sort of mysterious about things. I see when 75 00:07:45,360 --> 00:07:48,160 you find him for me, mister Templer, I'm afraid something may have happened 76 00:07:48,160 --> 00:07:53,480 to him, something terrible. I'll do what I can. That means you'll 77 00:07:53,519 --> 00:07:59,000 find him very pretty vote of confidence, it's more than a vote. You're 78 00:07:59,079 --> 00:08:03,519 a life save so silent, Well, thank you. I just hope I'll 79 00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:15,920 strike the right flavor with your husband. Hey, part, I beg your 80 00:08:15,959 --> 00:08:18,319 pardon of where you're going. Oh, I'm on my way to the x 81 00:08:18,399 --> 00:08:22,560 Brook. That's it. Isn't it at the end of the year. Yes, 82 00:08:22,680 --> 00:08:26,759 that's the x brook. But visiting ours ain't an effect. Oh yeah, 83 00:08:26,879 --> 00:08:30,240 habba details got a little job of work to do, oh such as 84 00:08:30,560 --> 00:08:37,240 drudging sounds deep for anything in particular a body? I see someone fell overboard. 85 00:08:37,519 --> 00:08:54,120 Well maybe Horry could have been pushed. Okay, mister Coupler, we'll 86 00:08:54,120 --> 00:08:56,559 tell her. That's ready to see you now. It's very nice of the 87 00:08:56,600 --> 00:09:03,320 lieutenant. Come on, they found the body thenny Yeah, WA's your stuff 88 00:09:03,399 --> 00:09:13,279 here? Hey, lord turning, here's the guy. Okay Simmons, Now, 89 00:09:13,440 --> 00:09:16,120 mister Templer, I understands you've been hanging around the watchful waiting might be 90 00:09:16,240 --> 00:09:20,240 a better description. I'll bring you here a man named Sparrow, friend of 91 00:09:20,279 --> 00:09:24,000 yours. I never met him, however, I'd like to see him. 92 00:09:24,360 --> 00:09:28,720 Why he might be worth seeing. He might be let him inte, mister 93 00:09:28,799 --> 00:09:31,240 Temple, aren't you the saint? Yes? But you don't want my biography 94 00:09:31,279 --> 00:09:39,919 at the moment, do you? No? Man, he said you wanted 95 00:09:39,919 --> 00:09:46,000 to look at Sparrow. Okay, look at him. Yeah he's not very 96 00:09:46,080 --> 00:09:50,679 pretty. Nobody is. After soaking in the harbor for three days, she 97 00:09:50,960 --> 00:09:54,879 must have been hungry. Yeah, The guy's face is practically gone, but 98 00:09:54,000 --> 00:09:58,679 he was carrying his papers on him. The temple you found your man, 99 00:09:58,000 --> 00:10:03,600 Frank Sparrow. M he was drowned. Surprised he wasn't drowned. There a 100 00:10:03,679 --> 00:10:07,279 couple of bullets in him. Who put him there. The same night he 101 00:10:07,360 --> 00:10:11,600 disappeared. The night watchman on us tub disappeared too, an old guy named 102 00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:15,559 Gleason. We found the watchman's gun and one of the ventilators. Two shots 103 00:10:15,600 --> 00:10:18,679 had been fired from it. Also, some weights were missing. Watchman shot 104 00:10:18,759 --> 00:10:22,159 Sparrow. Put the weights in his clothing to keep him down for a while, 105 00:10:22,360 --> 00:10:24,840 get him down for three days, But Sparrow came up anyway, proving 106 00:10:24,919 --> 00:10:41,240 you can't keep a good man down or a bad man. Templar acts suspicious 107 00:10:41,279 --> 00:10:43,399 about anything, says he. No, he believed me. He got looking 108 00:10:43,440 --> 00:10:46,919 for Sparrow. Now they're a good girl, says he. I wonder they 109 00:10:46,960 --> 00:10:52,159 go. That could be unhealthy. And Collins asked you the front for us, 110 00:10:52,519 --> 00:10:56,000 get a legit character like Templar to find Sparrow for us, for which 111 00:10:56,039 --> 00:11:00,720 you get paid. Don't wonder all right, lego, why are you so 112 00:11:00,879 --> 00:11:03,960 anxious to find Sparrow? Yours? Me and Collins all must be a lot. 113 00:11:05,159 --> 00:11:09,559 Mind your own business, says he. All right, where's Collins telling 114 00:11:09,639 --> 00:11:13,600 Templer? We want to know where Sparrow is the instant? Templer tags him, 115 00:11:13,639 --> 00:11:16,919 saying, there we go. You told me why you didn't want to 116 00:11:16,960 --> 00:11:20,240 go to Templar yourself. You said he'd be more willing to do it if 117 00:11:20,279 --> 00:11:22,919 a pretty girl like me asked him. And what's that supposed to be? 118 00:11:22,320 --> 00:11:28,080 Neons? No, but I'm beginning to think maybe the reason you wanted your 119 00:11:28,200 --> 00:11:33,799 name's kept out of it is suppose something happens to Sparrow after Templar finds him, 120 00:11:33,480 --> 00:11:39,240 something fatal, then you'd be in the clear. You've got a very 121 00:11:39,399 --> 00:11:43,759 healthy imagination. It doesn't feel healthy right now, Lesson, you're running an 122 00:11:43,879 --> 00:11:48,639 errand for me. Don't try to run it up to anything else. Otherwise 123 00:11:48,679 --> 00:11:54,039 you wouldn't lay a hand on me, Oh wouldn't. I see you're wrong 124 00:11:54,159 --> 00:11:58,639 about that. It could be wrong about the lots of things, So stop 125 00:11:58,720 --> 00:12:05,759 imagining. Do like your to me. I'll tuck into the bedroom till we 126 00:12:05,759 --> 00:12:18,679 see us. Come on for somebody else coming coming? Oh Simon, may 127 00:12:18,679 --> 00:12:24,679 I come in? Of course? I'm glad you came. I've been sort 128 00:12:24,720 --> 00:12:30,600 of lonely. That's not exactly why I came. Oh, Simon, you 129 00:12:30,679 --> 00:12:35,480 don't mean you've already found Frank. I don't. Oh, Simon, You're 130 00:12:35,639 --> 00:12:39,600 wonderful, not especially. It was very simple. What isn't simple is why 131 00:12:39,720 --> 00:12:43,960 someone followed me here, someone followed you. Oh, you must be imagining 132 00:12:45,039 --> 00:12:50,519 it, Grabs. I thought better of my imagination though. However, Susan, 133 00:12:50,120 --> 00:12:54,799 what was your husband carrying on him? Oh? I don't quite know 134 00:12:54,960 --> 00:12:58,799 what that means, carrying something, Just a wild shot, Susan. When 135 00:12:58,840 --> 00:13:03,679 I got down to the ship, the police were very busy fishing a body 136 00:13:03,759 --> 00:13:07,879 out of the harbor. The papers found on it belonged to Frank Sparrell. 137 00:13:09,480 --> 00:13:15,440 Oh no, no, nothing else in his pockets except Susan. A night 138 00:13:15,519 --> 00:13:20,360 watchman named Gleaton disappeared the night of the murder, presumably after emptying those pockets. 139 00:13:20,960 --> 00:13:24,519 Oh wow, that's why you asked me what my husband might be carrying 140 00:13:24,600 --> 00:13:30,960 on? Yeah, I don't know, I Simon. You'd better go now, 141 00:13:31,240 --> 00:13:37,960 of course. The shock Yes, good night, Susan, Good night, 142 00:13:37,080 --> 00:13:43,639 Simon. Shot came from down the hall, Timon, don't leave me, 143 00:13:48,840 --> 00:13:54,320 Come on back inside the New Corps. Same man who'd followed me here, 144 00:13:54,480 --> 00:13:58,600 Colins. What nothing you just said? Colin? Did you see the 145 00:13:58,600 --> 00:14:01,360 man who's shot him? No? By the time I got to the end 146 00:14:01,399 --> 00:14:05,559 of the holly was gone. Who is Collins, Susan, I don't know 147 00:14:05,679 --> 00:14:09,480 anyone named Collins. You must have made a mistake, Susan. A man 148 00:14:09,720 --> 00:14:13,960 was just killed out there. The police will be along in a very little 149 00:14:13,039 --> 00:14:16,240 while. They'll identify him. That'll lead them to you. No, the 150 00:14:16,279 --> 00:14:20,399 police don't know anything about I do. You wouldn't tell them. How long 151 00:14:20,480 --> 00:14:26,279 have you been married to Frank Sparrow? A couple of years. And you 152 00:14:26,360 --> 00:14:28,679 spend a lot of time outdoors, don't you. Someone must have told you 153 00:14:28,759 --> 00:14:33,039 how attractive tanned blondes are. Well, yes, I do get out a 154 00:14:33,120 --> 00:14:41,120 bit. Mind slipping that wedding ring off your finger? No thanks? What 155 00:14:41,240 --> 00:14:46,480 do you star your ring finger and prettily even under the ring. You haven't 156 00:14:46,519 --> 00:14:50,159 been wearing that ring very long, Susan. Otherwise there'd be a band of 157 00:14:50,279 --> 00:14:54,480 lighter skin on your finger, which means you're not married, Susan. You 158 00:14:54,600 --> 00:15:00,120 just started wearing that ring today, Simon, I'll have to you pretend to 159 00:15:00,159 --> 00:15:05,080 be Sparrow's wife and asked me to find him. Why I a friend of 160 00:15:05,120 --> 00:15:07,960 mine? I mean Sparrow was a friend of mine. I was worried about 161 00:15:09,039 --> 00:15:13,159 him. Now you know, I didn't kill Collins. I was here in 162 00:15:13,240 --> 00:15:16,240 the room with you when and when, you know, might have killed Collins, 163 00:15:16,360 --> 00:15:18,000 just as you might have killed Sparrow. What you said? The night 164 00:15:18,080 --> 00:15:22,639 watchman Gleason were suspected, that's all. Who asked you to pretend you were 165 00:15:22,720 --> 00:15:28,039 Sparrow's wife? A man named Rigo? Why did he want Sparrow found? 166 00:15:28,200 --> 00:15:31,879 He didn't tell me. What were you supposed to do when I found Sparrow? 167 00:15:33,000 --> 00:15:37,360 For tell Rigo? That's all. Where is Rigo? Now? I 168 00:15:37,759 --> 00:15:39,480 don't know where does he live? I don't know that either, But the 169 00:15:39,600 --> 00:15:43,480 next time you see him, Susan, ask him to get in touch with 170 00:15:43,639 --> 00:15:46,559 me. All right, Simon, they're a back way out of this apartment. 171 00:15:46,879 --> 00:15:52,200 I'd just as soon avoid the police. Backway apartments frequently have them, 172 00:15:52,279 --> 00:15:56,240 you know, usually through the kitchen, of course. Come on, I'll 173 00:15:56,240 --> 00:16:02,879 show you. You can go right out here. Those stairs lead to the 174 00:16:02,960 --> 00:16:06,840 street. Oh, thank you, Susan, Simon. Couldn't you forget that 175 00:16:06,919 --> 00:16:11,639 you ever came to see me? Yes, Susan, I can be forgetful 176 00:16:11,679 --> 00:16:22,679 about a lot of things, but not Mardie. Bright boy gun you went 177 00:16:22,840 --> 00:16:26,879 very smart, Sisan. What do you mean feeding bred boy my name? 178 00:16:27,240 --> 00:16:30,399 I had to otherwise he might have turned me over to the cops. You 179 00:16:30,480 --> 00:16:33,799 didn't knock off Collins, did you? So? Why I worry? Because 180 00:16:33,919 --> 00:16:38,919 maybe you did? Little thinker, ain't you, Susie. I was in 181 00:16:40,000 --> 00:16:42,360 the apartment when Collins got it. You could have gone out the back door, 182 00:16:42,679 --> 00:16:47,399 shot him, then come back. Sure, Only you forgot to mention. 183 00:16:47,519 --> 00:16:52,960 That's the Templar. I didn't forget Rego. You were expecting something from 184 00:16:52,000 --> 00:16:57,039 Sparrow, something worth money. That night watchman who killed Sparrow must have stolen 185 00:16:57,120 --> 00:17:00,200 it. But you're going to find that night watchman now, aren't you. 186 00:17:00,519 --> 00:17:04,720 I wouldn't know Sparrow's being fished out of Ahaba. Don't make me feel good. 187 00:17:07,079 --> 00:17:11,359 I stuck my neck out on this for peanuts. There's been a couple 188 00:17:11,400 --> 00:17:15,440 of murders, Rigo. I want more money from my end of this job. 189 00:17:15,799 --> 00:17:21,200 Suppose I did kill Colin, says he. That would be on account 190 00:17:21,240 --> 00:17:25,359 of I didn't want to cut him in. I mentioned your name to Templar. 191 00:17:26,200 --> 00:17:29,960 That would be because I wouldn't want you to get the same idea about 192 00:17:30,079 --> 00:17:34,759 me. You're not only pretty, says he, a smart thanks, you 193 00:17:34,839 --> 00:17:41,279 could easily get too smart. All right, I'll cut you in sysie, 194 00:17:41,000 --> 00:17:45,440 but no more flapping up the mouth than templar. Right right, everybody, 195 00:17:45,519 --> 00:17:48,839 SUSI, where are you going? Um? I'm a hard working man. 196 00:17:48,920 --> 00:17:53,519 I need a rest. But about Gleason the night watchman? Worry you'll have 197 00:17:53,640 --> 00:17:57,559 to pedal of stuff he took off Sparrow does you won't forget to let me 198 00:17:57,759 --> 00:18:03,279 know? Will you? I won't forget? And you watch yourself for that 199 00:18:03,440 --> 00:18:15,920 singer because the way I've heard it, it's only a nickname. Hello, 200 00:18:17,079 --> 00:18:22,200 Rico, I rather thought you'd be using the backdoor, jem. Let's not 201 00:18:22,440 --> 00:18:27,359 loiter, shall we? The police object you have a nice visit with Susan 202 00:18:27,920 --> 00:18:33,440 Susan Hill. If you went in Susan's apartment, you might have been out 203 00:18:33,440 --> 00:18:37,960 in the hallway killing Collins. Oh, now you mentioned that you meant Susan. 204 00:18:38,079 --> 00:18:41,759 You sure I was in her apartment all the time? Why were you 205 00:18:41,880 --> 00:18:45,839 hiding when I dropped in? We know how it is. I'm a gentleman. 206 00:18:45,480 --> 00:18:49,839 Yeah, the word has been redefined since I went to school. Rico 207 00:18:49,920 --> 00:18:53,200 it looks as though Sparrow is a dead end. How are you going to 208 00:18:53,240 --> 00:18:57,519 find Gleason? Why should I want him? Whatever Sparrow had, Gleason has 209 00:18:57,559 --> 00:19:04,640 it now something We ain't miss Susie's apartment house anymore. It's kind of late. 210 00:19:06,039 --> 00:19:11,279 Nobody around. You're very exactly also somebody who don't like interference. That's 211 00:19:11,319 --> 00:19:15,279 why you're showing me your gun. What's to stop me from getting you out 212 00:19:15,359 --> 00:19:18,599 of my head? For one thing, you're bald. For another, the 213 00:19:18,680 --> 00:19:22,920 man who's been trailing us ever since we left Susan's house, you're lying. 214 00:19:23,319 --> 00:19:26,480 Look back fat. Oh no, you're just angling for a chance to jump 215 00:19:26,559 --> 00:19:30,559 me. That's your problem. Okay, move up in front of me a 216 00:19:30,640 --> 00:19:34,240 couple of people now, I'll take a look. Sorry, yeah, I've 217 00:19:34,240 --> 00:19:48,759 seen him, only I couldn't have He's dead. Pretty go, you're a 218 00:19:48,920 --> 00:19:51,720 fool. If you hadn't started running, we could have caught the man trailing 219 00:19:51,799 --> 00:19:55,680 us. I like this better being in a cab. Oh that's the kind 220 00:19:55,720 --> 00:19:59,960 of remark I approve of, Louis. Stay out of this conversation, sudden 221 00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:03,359 you don't like cab drivers, mister TUMPTI, I'm crazy about them. Look 222 00:20:03,400 --> 00:20:06,079 I see two fellas having a foot race in the middle of the night. 223 00:20:06,599 --> 00:20:08,440 I think maybe they would get there faster than a cab. I pull over 224 00:20:08,480 --> 00:20:11,200 to the cope. And it's my fault. It turned out to be you, 225 00:20:11,400 --> 00:20:15,319 how mister Tumptons, No loie, and I'm very grateful that she stopped 226 00:20:15,359 --> 00:20:19,640 for it. Okay, ain't nobody mentioned the address fifty three Colton, Well 227 00:20:19,920 --> 00:20:23,839 it's address? Who is that man, Rego, George Washington. You're a 228 00:20:23,880 --> 00:20:27,160 little behind the times, bigger? Did you kill Collins? No? Can? 229 00:20:27,200 --> 00:20:30,240 You're proving no. The police are gonna want somebody for that murder. 230 00:20:30,279 --> 00:20:33,359 I'll let them find our own murderers. I got other troubles. May turn 231 00:20:33,440 --> 00:20:37,480 out to be the same trouble. Rego, you didn't kill Collins, and 232 00:20:37,559 --> 00:20:41,359 the man who did maybe after you. Yeah, and for the same reason, 233 00:20:41,759 --> 00:20:44,440 to get you out of the way so he could catch in on the 234 00:20:44,480 --> 00:20:48,480 stuff Sparrow was smuggling into the country. Jewels, that guy who cares what 235 00:20:48,680 --> 00:20:52,240 you guess? Besides, that would make it Gleason. And I ain't afraid 236 00:20:52,279 --> 00:21:06,000 of Gleason. Why not because he ain't dead. And mister Templer, yes, 237 00:21:06,119 --> 00:21:10,200 Louis, you know personally, I'm not sorry. We deposited mister Rigo 238 00:21:10,240 --> 00:21:12,799 at his house. He's not that type. I'm comfortable driving around in my 239 00:21:12,920 --> 00:21:15,319 care. That would be narrow minded, Louis. No, it's not that 240 00:21:15,400 --> 00:21:22,000 I'm narrow minded, just so happens. I'm not bulletproof neither, he mister 241 00:21:22,119 --> 00:21:26,680 Temple, you want I should drive you back to that Blant's apartment, No, 242 00:21:26,039 --> 00:21:30,880 Louis, Or than your description of what was not the truth? Oh 243 00:21:30,960 --> 00:21:33,319 it was the truth. But I have a more important darn one the middle 244 00:21:33,359 --> 00:21:37,119 of the night. What could be more important than a plant? A car? 245 00:21:37,160 --> 00:21:52,359 Louis? Make it the morgue all right, Louis, Oh it's about 246 00:21:52,480 --> 00:21:55,720 time. I don't enjoy waiting on for a fair outside of the Morgue. 247 00:21:55,720 --> 00:21:57,599 I get morbid thoughts. What do you want? I should take you back 248 00:21:57,640 --> 00:22:02,480 to Rigo? He goes house. Look, mister Templer, I got a 249 00:22:02,519 --> 00:22:04,839 suggestion. Why don't we just stay here and send for Rigo? You know, 250 00:22:04,920 --> 00:22:07,319 then after he got through with us, we could move right into the 251 00:22:07,400 --> 00:22:12,000 Morgue without bothering nobody. Yeah, I should have been a truck driver. 252 00:22:12,160 --> 00:22:15,559 Oh, you whistle nicely, my brother in law, he keeps telling them, 253 00:22:17,160 --> 00:22:22,160 louisas you should be a truck driver. You'lin manners want to be polite 254 00:22:22,200 --> 00:22:25,599 to people? Why not how to help distress motorists when they're in distress? 255 00:22:26,200 --> 00:22:29,640 Why how you shouldn't it be a road hog? And above everything else, 256 00:22:29,720 --> 00:22:33,640 he says, you don't have to associate with riff rat. So I listen 257 00:22:33,720 --> 00:22:36,720 to him. No, I stay a cab driver, and I visit the 258 00:22:36,880 --> 00:22:40,640 morgue. Hey, mister Templer, what did you do there? Looked at 259 00:22:40,680 --> 00:22:45,519 the corpse they fished out of the harbor. Huh? He improved in appearance 260 00:22:45,759 --> 00:22:48,160 h at lane, However, I did, suggested the officer in charge. 261 00:22:48,200 --> 00:22:52,559 Did he get in touch immediately with Spara's dentist? Oh? Wow, wow, 262 00:22:52,720 --> 00:22:55,319 the corps has a toothpaker. Oh, I don't know, but it's 263 00:22:55,359 --> 00:23:10,680 possible, Louis, it's possible. Let me go go yet, Susie. 264 00:23:10,759 --> 00:23:18,519 Let me in where I'm out? The unlocked the door. It's nice if 265 00:23:18,559 --> 00:23:21,640 you to visit me, Susie. What's the matter with you? Go? 266 00:23:22,240 --> 00:23:27,000 I see things? Are you sure you come along? Of course I did. 267 00:23:29,160 --> 00:23:33,400 Maybe you only think so because maybe somebody came with you, only you 268 00:23:33,559 --> 00:23:38,079 can't see him. You're drunk. I wish I was drunkerre we go, 269 00:23:38,960 --> 00:23:45,640 you killed Collins? That's you wouldn't have killed him on speculation. You must 270 00:23:45,680 --> 00:23:49,519 have found Gleason yourself got the jewels from him, then you killed Collins so 271 00:23:49,599 --> 00:23:55,759 you could keep them all. Maybe you're nuts. I want my share where 272 00:23:55,839 --> 00:24:00,319 you come right over and ask fim it like a buying like Collins off on 273 00:24:00,440 --> 00:24:03,599 account of those stones. What makes you think I wouldn't do the same thing 274 00:24:03,720 --> 00:24:11,519 for you, Because I've got this ladies model. It'll do. Yeah, 275 00:24:11,559 --> 00:24:18,400 I'm not very bright. I we go. What's the matter? Window? 276 00:24:18,559 --> 00:24:25,720 There's somebody the window. He's got a gun. I figured him to have 277 00:24:26,279 --> 00:24:41,720 run as no place to run to. Please? Oh no, no, 278 00:24:44,000 --> 00:24:57,119 open the door or shots we go? Never mind? Rego go who shot? 279 00:24:57,880 --> 00:25:11,319 No? No, we go. Don't be a fool. That's that 280 00:25:12,680 --> 00:25:17,039 Simon. He's dead. You were the only one in the room within, 281 00:25:17,240 --> 00:25:22,079 Susan. He was shot through that window. Simon, Please believe me when 282 00:25:22,119 --> 00:25:26,559 the glass broken by the bullets, he is a glass fell under the room. 283 00:25:26,559 --> 00:25:33,119 Someone outside, chat rigo, someone keep talking, Susan, he's still. 284 00:25:34,440 --> 00:25:37,039 You must know that, we know we're in the light. Oh is 285 00:25:37,079 --> 00:25:41,480 it? Sigh? Before I think I could name him? Keep talking Sisson. 286 00:25:42,599 --> 00:25:45,160 I'm going to work my way around to the wall next to the window 287 00:25:45,480 --> 00:25:48,160 as soon as I get there, and put the lights out in here. 288 00:25:48,400 --> 00:25:53,359 The lights? Why you knew the switch? Don't look at it. It's 289 00:25:53,400 --> 00:25:59,400 to your left, a little higher than your waist. Turn a bit away 290 00:25:59,480 --> 00:26:02,640 from me, slide one hand behind your back. What are you going to 291 00:26:02,720 --> 00:26:07,720 do with Simon? Windows? The lights? I'm scaredn't worry about it, 292 00:26:07,640 --> 00:26:11,720 and said Susan. Catch your finger on the switch. Yes, all right, 293 00:26:11,799 --> 00:26:29,200 then let's have a little darkness. I think I'm much better, Susan. 294 00:26:29,759 --> 00:26:33,839 Put the lights on inside all right, Simon, Simon, did you 295 00:26:34,240 --> 00:26:40,319 yes? Yes, a little stranger is resting. You're recognize him? No, 296 00:26:40,960 --> 00:26:42,839 I've never seen him, and perhaps i'd better introduce you to him. 297 00:26:44,400 --> 00:26:59,000 Susan, meet mister Sparrow. So all right, mister Temple, is a 298 00:26:59,079 --> 00:27:02,200 guy you in that dot side of Rigo's house? Was Sparrow? Yeah? 299 00:27:02,279 --> 00:27:06,519 So he killed REGOs so he also killed Collins only but he was dead. 300 00:27:06,720 --> 00:27:10,759 No, Louis, they checked with Sparrow's deadist. It wasn't Sparrow in the 301 00:27:10,880 --> 00:27:14,880 morgue or sure, sure he was out shooting people, but if it wasn't 302 00:27:14,920 --> 00:27:19,400 Sparrow who was the night watchman Gleason? Oh you mean instead of Gleason knocking 303 00:27:19,480 --> 00:27:23,079 off Sparrow, it was Sparrow, which not for Gleason, That's right, 304 00:27:23,200 --> 00:27:26,920 Louis. Then he emptied Gleason's pockets and put his own papers in them. 305 00:27:27,400 --> 00:27:30,680 He hoped that would result in the police looking for Gleason. Yeah, he 306 00:27:30,839 --> 00:27:36,119 also hoped it would throw Collins and Rego off. It did, until he 307 00:27:36,160 --> 00:27:40,279 could kill them and keep the jewels for himself. It's a very low type. 308 00:27:41,519 --> 00:27:45,079 Only you must have known before you caught Sparrow on a colf You know, 309 00:27:45,119 --> 00:27:47,960 you told the cops to look up that dentist. So how did you 310 00:27:48,079 --> 00:27:52,200 know? Obviously Sparrow was in a hurry after he killed Gleason, the shots 311 00:27:52,279 --> 00:27:55,559 might have been heard. Therefore, he didn't have time to change clothes with 312 00:27:55,640 --> 00:27:59,799 the dead man. All he could do was empty Gleason's pockets of everything that 313 00:28:00,000 --> 00:28:03,599 I'd have identified him in substitute his own identification. And then he hoped the 314 00:28:03,640 --> 00:28:07,880 water and the fishes would make it impossible to identify Gleasian. Huh, but 315 00:28:07,039 --> 00:28:11,920 that still don't tell me. Louis was too pat what the only thing in 316 00:28:11,960 --> 00:28:17,319 a corpse. This pocket turned out to be is identification papers a corpse otherwise 317 00:28:17,440 --> 00:28:21,759 unrecognizable. Oh it's too pat and they're there for a fake sure, okay, 318 00:28:21,839 --> 00:28:25,519 yeah, but there's something else you have to explain, which is why 319 00:28:25,559 --> 00:28:29,319 ain't that beautiful blund with you? Susan? Yeah? Oh, she's in 320 00:28:29,440 --> 00:28:34,079 conference at headquarters? Is that soul? Yes? Who says the policeman's lot 321 00:28:34,240 --> 00:28:52,200 is not a happy one.

I guess this one early on, 344 00:31:15,799 --> 00:31:22,680 just because it did seem to me the likely big shake up rather than any 345 00:31:22,759 --> 00:31:29,880 of these people who were far away having committed the crime. I also have 346 00:31:30,079 --> 00:31:37,359 to say that with the suspects talking among themselves and the way the Saint comes 347 00:31:37,400 --> 00:31:41,160 into this, it almost seems like a script or The Falcon, and I 348 00:31:41,319 --> 00:31:48,720 can't help but wonder if this was either a reused script or a script that 349 00:31:48,039 --> 00:31:56,440 had been proposed for The Falcon and then rejected and subsequently reworked for the Saint. 350 00:31:56,640 --> 00:32:00,559 Acting is still good, and Vincent Price X one is always speaking of 351 00:32:00,640 --> 00:32:07,559 that. We have some listener comments and feedback. Jan says, love Vincent's 352 00:32:07,640 --> 00:32:13,960 Price's voice on the Saint radio show I have. I'd have watched him a 353 00:32:14,160 --> 00:32:19,799 lot more than Roger Moore if he'd been on the TV series. Wow. 354 00:32:19,960 --> 00:32:22,680 High praise indeed, Jen.
