Why I've been invited to dinner by some 37 00:03:53,520 --> 00:03:58,080 friends. The food tastes better in west Chest. No, but my friends 38 00:03:58,120 --> 00:04:04,759 lived there. Okay, so please don't tuck, Louie. Lots of people 39 00:04:04,759 --> 00:04:09,759 live in Westchester. Lots of people are crazy. Westchester happens to be a 40 00:04:09,879 --> 00:04:14,439 very lovely place full of trees, ain't it. The trees are attracted apes. 41 00:04:15,599 --> 00:04:17,680 I'd better tell you how to go well to tell me I'll find it? 42 00:04:17,759 --> 00:04:21,000 I know, butson, mister Temper, I'm a cab driver. Cab 43 00:04:21,120 --> 00:04:39,199 drivers never get lost, Louis, don't say it. We've just passed that 44 00:04:39,279 --> 00:04:43,480 oak tree on the left for the third time, so it's an active tree. 45 00:04:43,839 --> 00:04:47,399 I thought cab drivers never got lost. Somebody swiped all the streets sign 46 00:04:47,480 --> 00:04:50,680 from the trees, so I got lost, So I'll turn my badge, 47 00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:55,199 and so my wife will despise me, so my children will go through life 48 00:04:55,199 --> 00:04:58,600 a shame of their old man. So, Louis, Louis, it's ten 49 00:04:58,639 --> 00:05:01,720 o'clock. My dinner in the was for eight thirty. You'll never make it. 50 00:05:02,560 --> 00:05:05,800 I don't doubt that, but I'm hungry. Next time you get to 51 00:05:05,839 --> 00:05:10,319 an eating place, don't say anymore. Right up the road. Yeah, 52 00:05:10,360 --> 00:05:14,720 the happy Hamburger, Ben Lawton proprietor doesn't look very happy. Why does it 53 00:05:14,839 --> 00:05:18,079 got to look happy? Above? I'm at the place itself, So maybe 54 00:05:18,120 --> 00:05:20,959 it looks a little like if the wolf came around and huffed and puffed, 55 00:05:20,959 --> 00:05:26,279 he wouldn't have to strain along before it fell down. But food is food, 56 00:05:26,720 --> 00:05:30,639 except when it's a happy hamburger. Perhaps, however, Hey, this 57 00:05:30,759 --> 00:05:35,639 must be the wolf puffing or maybe puffing here he is, yeah, savage 58 00:05:35,639 --> 00:05:42,279 looking at him. Some of the poor dog looks as if he hadn't eaten 59 00:05:42,360 --> 00:05:45,800 for a week. Let's get into the joint before he mistakes me for a 60 00:05:45,839 --> 00:05:55,680 tea ball stake feels happy hamburger is not having a busy night. What can 61 00:05:55,720 --> 00:05:58,680 I do for you? We'd like some dinner? Well, we're kind of 62 00:05:58,720 --> 00:06:01,800 closing, but you have haven't closed yet. No, I guess we ain't 63 00:06:03,040 --> 00:06:08,079 said anywhere. I guess the missus dish up some food. I'll go tell 64 00:06:08,079 --> 00:06:13,519 her a very enthusiastic type hooles. Never mind that, I hope they have 65 00:06:13,560 --> 00:06:16,279 a well stocked ladder. I hope it further occurs to me that they don't 66 00:06:16,319 --> 00:06:19,199 have to go out and catch that dog before they have a lighter at all. 67 00:06:19,360 --> 00:06:23,360 Stop hoping a man could get seasoned. Of course, this place may 68 00:06:23,399 --> 00:06:40,920 be an undiscovered gourmet's delight, but I wouldn't bet on it. A gourmet 69 00:06:41,079 --> 00:06:46,800 who could have delighted in this place is still undiscovered. What do you think 70 00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:49,480 of Missus Lawton's cooking? You know, I don't want to think of it. 71 00:06:49,519 --> 00:06:54,160 I'm trying to eat it. Finish with your jennifellers. The dinner is 72 00:06:54,199 --> 00:06:57,720 more likely to finish it. How about dessert? Well, we've got blueberry 73 00:06:57,720 --> 00:07:01,360 pie. We got huckleberry pie. Once diff huckleberry pie is a nickel moore. 74 00:07:01,839 --> 00:07:23,519 Why harder to spell? Which you have apple pie? Oh? Man, 75 00:07:23,680 --> 00:07:27,360 what's the matter, lily dinner? Yeah? I know exactly what you 76 00:07:27,480 --> 00:07:30,199 mean. However, we won't starve to death. While you try to find 77 00:07:30,240 --> 00:07:34,040 your way back. I beg your pardon. It wasn't made up as a 78 00:07:34,160 --> 00:07:43,959 pie. I was afraid it was. I think maybe yeah, flat flat 79 00:07:45,000 --> 00:07:47,720 fine. We're back in front of that oak tree again. You keep your 80 00:07:47,759 --> 00:07:51,040 eye on that open mister Temple. When I get to spare, yeah, 81 00:07:51,240 --> 00:07:59,439 want some help? No thanks, thank you, mister Temple. Yes, 82 00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:05,240 Louis, come here. Don't tell me you can't lift the spare all by 83 00:08:05,279 --> 00:08:09,439 yourself. The spare I could lift. But there's something else you see. 84 00:08:09,800 --> 00:08:18,120 Yes, a hitchhiker man in his forties, crabs dressed in farmer's clothing. 85 00:08:18,720 --> 00:08:35,399 He might might have walken terribly tired, Louis, he got dead. Somebody 86 00:08:35,440 --> 00:08:37,600 shoots the guy, all right, maybe you don't like him. Why does 87 00:08:37,639 --> 00:08:41,519 he have to stuff the corpse into the trunk of my cab? I don't 88 00:08:41,559 --> 00:08:43,879 know. There were no papers of any kind on the body, all right, 89 00:08:43,919 --> 00:08:46,960 so he's a total stranger. But why are we heading back to that 90 00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:50,879 Happy Hambling Because that's where we must have acquired the corpse. It's the only 91 00:08:50,919 --> 00:08:54,759 place we stopped. We're out the side of the car unless he was already 92 00:08:54,799 --> 00:08:58,559 in the trunk before we left the city. No no, I checked the 93 00:08:58,639 --> 00:09:01,679 tires plus the speed before I picked you up. Then it's the Happy Hamburger. 94 00:09:03,000 --> 00:09:07,360 The man was murdered fairly recently. Anyway, how do you know? 95 00:09:07,360 --> 00:09:09,320 No rigor more? This body warning the mind? Never mind? You know 96 00:09:09,559 --> 00:09:15,639 I'll stay a dope And it's the temple. What kind of a welcome you 97 00:09:15,639 --> 00:09:18,200 think we're gonna get at the Hamburger? It's hard to tell, except that 98 00:09:20,120 --> 00:09:41,159 it may not be a welcome at all. Joint is doc looks like maybe 99 00:09:41,159 --> 00:09:46,240 they went out of business. There's a house behind the restaurant that's dock too. 100 00:09:46,480 --> 00:09:48,559 The Lawtons may have gone to bed. It's after eleven. It is 101 00:09:48,720 --> 00:09:52,759 very late. Maybe we should go to bed. Becomes a Julia whale wolf 102 00:09:52,840 --> 00:09:56,279 again. Yeah, animals should be bad, but not by me. All 103 00:09:56,360 --> 00:10:01,399 the flesh I got I need from a long living. I'm coming, So 104 00:10:01,639 --> 00:10:03,639 is the hound of the basket. He's not bothering us so far. He 105 00:10:03,720 --> 00:10:07,639 kept his feet to themselves. Suppose he decides the risk if you and see 106 00:10:07,639 --> 00:10:11,240 how we take it, And it's a chance we'll have to take yeh here 107 00:10:11,279 --> 00:10:16,279 goes Oh, look now that our tumber has left us again. If I 108 00:10:16,279 --> 00:10:22,639 couldn't be more pleased. You know, if they're asleep, then I'm going 109 00:10:22,720 --> 00:10:24,480 to love us with a great love, and I'm not at the moment seeking 110 00:10:24,519 --> 00:10:31,559 affection. Yeah, missus Lawton, that's right. My name is Simon Templer. 111 00:10:31,679 --> 00:10:33,639 This is Louis. What do you want. You cooked dinner for us 112 00:10:33,679 --> 00:10:37,720 a little while ago, so I cooked dinner for you. But since that 113 00:10:37,879 --> 00:10:41,120 time we've had a little trouble. We had a flat tire. This ain't 114 00:10:41,159 --> 00:10:45,879 a garage. I wasn't referring to the tire when I said trouble. Why 115 00:10:45,919 --> 00:10:48,240 don't you say what you're referring to? Well, I would rather your husband 116 00:10:48,240 --> 00:10:52,159 were here when I do. He's asleep, or he can be waved. 117 00:10:52,440 --> 00:10:56,399 What far it's a matter of some importance. You still ain't said anything. 118 00:10:56,919 --> 00:11:03,639 The matter might be murder. Murder, that's right, Come in, I 119 00:11:03,720 --> 00:11:13,240 think right in here. It's the parlor, Michelle. It takes time to 120 00:11:13,279 --> 00:11:16,559 waken mister Lawton. He sleeps hard. Well, I'm sorry, but I'm 121 00:11:16,600 --> 00:11:22,080 afraid it's necessary. That don't make it easier, But I'll get him up 122 00:11:22,120 --> 00:11:28,600 from drift. I think the wait for her is gracious. Very few women 123 00:11:28,639 --> 00:11:31,399 are at their best in the middle of the night. Louis. That's what 124 00:11:31,440 --> 00:11:37,600 you'd think, would you like? Now? Okay, Hey, mister Temple, 125 00:11:37,519 --> 00:11:41,399 you figuring the deceased that we got in the cab was put there by 126 00:11:41,440 --> 00:11:45,240 a lort. It's not necessarily they did have the opportunity, But so what 127 00:11:45,360 --> 00:11:48,240 anyone else who might have been around the place where we were having dinner or 128 00:11:48,320 --> 00:11:52,639 stop complicating, thinks it's bad enough. This is some Paula he has. 129 00:11:52,679 --> 00:11:58,320 I've seen cheerier places. They got a radio oil? No television set? 130 00:11:58,559 --> 00:12:01,000 Is that there? The Temple? What do you think of television? I 131 00:12:01,000 --> 00:12:05,919 think of it as infrequently as I can. Missus Lawton is apparently having difficulty 132 00:12:05,919 --> 00:12:09,600 awaken her husband from what we've seen a guy, how can she tell when 133 00:12:09,600 --> 00:12:31,679 he's awake? And eleven twelve? You know what happens at midnight? Ghosts 134 00:12:31,759 --> 00:12:37,480 take walks. Maybe our botes have flown the coop. It's a possible thing. 135 00:12:39,240 --> 00:12:43,720 How can a boid fly a coop in here? M hm? They 136 00:12:43,799 --> 00:12:48,200 can't fly a coop? Hi, Hello, mister Lawton, you didn't have 137 00:12:48,240 --> 00:12:52,360 to bother dressing for it. I dress for myself. Don't go second mud 138 00:12:52,399 --> 00:12:56,960 over the best rug seck where you are? I'll set where I am. 139 00:12:58,240 --> 00:13:01,320 Wife tells me you're mister Templar. I am. She also tells me you 140 00:13:01,399 --> 00:13:05,960 got something to say about a murder. I have say it in a moment. 141 00:13:07,879 --> 00:13:11,440 Your wife and you own the Happy Hamburger. You already know that. 142 00:13:11,759 --> 00:13:16,759 I noticed quite some farm land behind the house yours? Yeah, frement yourself? 143 00:13:16,240 --> 00:13:20,399 Pretty much? Does that? Pretty much mean you have help? Sometimes 144 00:13:22,320 --> 00:13:26,799 hired hand named Webster? Why only sometimes? Well, you up and quit 145 00:13:26,919 --> 00:13:30,519 this afternoon. It's too bad. Oh, he'll be back as soon as 146 00:13:30,519 --> 00:13:33,360 he spends his money. You might be wrong about that, always has before. 147 00:13:35,440 --> 00:13:39,240 What are you getting at? Suppose we go outside to the cab? 148 00:13:39,360 --> 00:13:50,720 Huh? I don't mind. Come on emmy, I'm right here. What 149 00:13:50,799 --> 00:13:54,080 kind of a man is Webstein? Oh? Not much? Account works when 150 00:13:54,120 --> 00:13:58,320 he has to eat, gets a full belly, stops working. The philosopher 151 00:13:58,360 --> 00:14:01,960 perhaps if you have any quarrels with him? I don't know. Is the 152 00:14:03,000 --> 00:14:07,360 ancient mister Templar? Perhaps? But is there any reason why your husband should 153 00:14:07,399 --> 00:14:13,000 hesitate about answering that question? No reason, No quarrels, fight, Louis, 154 00:14:13,240 --> 00:14:16,440 Yeah, please open the trump compartment, will you sure? In a 155 00:14:16,480 --> 00:14:24,000 second, there's something I'd like to show you, mister Lawton, lois if 156 00:14:24,039 --> 00:14:26,279 you were planning on surprising anybody, give up? What do you mean? 157 00:14:26,720 --> 00:14:33,080 Look, m looks like Boyd, cancel like Coops. Something I picked the 158 00:14:33,120 --> 00:14:39,600 wrong Boyd. We have mislaid our corpse. Mister appear strange. See how 159 00:14:39,639 --> 00:14:43,720 about letting us in on this. Mister Lawton was your hired hand, a 160 00:14:43,799 --> 00:14:48,600 man in the middle forties with brown hair and eyes of stocky build a small 161 00:14:48,720 --> 00:14:52,440 scar under his left job one. That's Webster. You must have met him. 162 00:14:52,039 --> 00:14:56,000 What do you have to say for himself? We met him, but 163 00:14:56,559 --> 00:15:13,120 he didn't have anything to say. We didn't start out being the great loves 164 00:15:13,120 --> 00:15:16,960 of the loss of his life. But I hate to think what they must 165 00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:18,759 be thinking of us now right. I hate to think of the missing mister 166 00:15:18,840 --> 00:15:24,279 Webster. Yeah, he didn't even say goodbye, mister Temple. What happened 167 00:15:24,320 --> 00:15:28,440 to him? I don't know. Corpses rarely are the active tide, but 168 00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:33,039 the late mister Webster may have been an exception. Exceptions like that. I 169 00:15:33,080 --> 00:15:37,639 hope stay away from me. We're in what could easily be an overgrown filling 170 00:15:37,679 --> 00:15:41,240 station. Slow down, lowie, this is expert oh in the town nearest 171 00:15:41,320 --> 00:15:46,639 the happy Hamburger place seems to be shut up for the night. I didn't 172 00:15:46,639 --> 00:15:50,679 think the sidewalks in though. Hey, up ahead the gay white way. 173 00:15:52,440 --> 00:16:00,120 The drug store appadly is still open. Let's stop there, len Okay, 174 00:16:00,799 --> 00:16:07,639 yeah, when those full of harnesses vitalizer and yacht goods. How did you 175 00:16:07,679 --> 00:16:10,600 know? What's a drug store? And there's a large sign advertising ice cream 176 00:16:10,679 --> 00:16:14,559 sodas in front. Oh well that explains it. Well, thisting only for 177 00:16:14,639 --> 00:16:25,279 information, come along joined us crawling with juveniles, and look at the joke 178 00:16:25,320 --> 00:16:27,639 box. And so it is the waitress behind the fountain. And that's too 179 00:16:27,679 --> 00:16:33,919 covering the waitress the fountain. H mister templar, I just noticed behind the 180 00:16:33,000 --> 00:16:38,679 cast rogister dissent, look it. Yeah, we'll not put your eyes back 181 00:16:38,720 --> 00:16:45,039 in their sockets. She's dressed in gingham, she's wearing pigtails and big blue 182 00:16:45,080 --> 00:16:48,720 eyes. She's merely the farmer's daughter doing. Is that a fact? Hey? 183 00:16:49,039 --> 00:16:55,720 Maybe she knows a joke, maybe able to help with his help the 184 00:16:55,759 --> 00:17:00,559 word you really had in mind? Good evening, man, I beg your 185 00:17:00,559 --> 00:17:03,799 pardon, sofa, what's for? Hmm? And far I means what it 186 00:17:03,960 --> 00:17:07,759 used to be? Not to mention the farmer's daughter. Who's a little stranger 187 00:17:07,839 --> 00:17:11,759 who's Oh that's Louis. It's not bad either, but it looks married. 188 00:17:12,079 --> 00:17:15,200 Who are you? I'm a templar, I'm Teddy. And what are you 189 00:17:15,240 --> 00:17:18,240 doing after I get through here? Well? Are you married? No? 190 00:17:18,720 --> 00:17:22,119 What a coincidence. I'm not married either, but it happens all the time. 191 00:17:22,160 --> 00:17:26,680 But what I wanted my closest in half hour? Tell me that, 192 00:17:26,960 --> 00:17:30,599 my dear Teddy? I Look, what do you know about a man named 193 00:17:30,640 --> 00:17:34,279 Webster? Dan Webster? M I imagine so hired hand out to the Lawtons. 194 00:17:34,359 --> 00:17:37,640 Yeah, that's the Dan Webster I had in mind. He wears a 195 00:17:37,640 --> 00:17:44,319 private property no trespassing sign on him. Oh who's signed missus Lawton's m How 196 00:17:44,359 --> 00:17:48,279 does mister Lawton feel about that? Mister Lawton has never seen fit to whisper? 197 00:17:48,319 --> 00:17:51,720 Sweet? Nothing's in my show like ears? Don't you think the show 198 00:17:51,880 --> 00:17:56,880 like my ears? I mean I hadn't noticed stop wasting time and do so 199 00:17:56,000 --> 00:18:00,480 noticing. Look, I'm almost old enough to be your father maybe, but 200 00:18:00,559 --> 00:18:04,720 you're not my father. Uh good, so far, it's a terrible evening. 201 00:18:04,960 --> 00:18:07,960 Where are you going? Louie? And I have an erin to do. 202 00:18:07,319 --> 00:18:11,640 My phone number is one three seven in case in case of what your 203 00:18:11,720 --> 00:18:21,920 erin is out of town. Goodbye, Wow. I'm afraid Wow is exactly 204 00:18:22,119 --> 00:18:26,599 right. Oh, you know, I'm coming to the conclusion they got something 205 00:18:26,759 --> 00:18:30,319 these small towns up in question. But do you mean they have is teddy 206 00:18:30,400 --> 00:18:34,000 and you're married and we have an appointment? Yeah? Well the Happy Hamburger. 207 00:18:34,240 --> 00:18:37,680 You mean we're going to wake the Lawtons again? I hope not. 208 00:18:37,960 --> 00:18:41,519 So what are we going out there for? We're going to dressed us on 209 00:18:42,839 --> 00:19:00,359 very private property. I ought to hang us, would shuttle on it. 210 00:19:00,400 --> 00:19:03,319 I'm like, I don't imagine we're going to be coming out here again. 211 00:19:03,440 --> 00:19:07,200 You're not breaking my heart. You know, every time we come out to 212 00:19:07,279 --> 00:19:11,680 the Happy Hamburger gets darker. I think I'll coin a proverb too late. 213 00:19:12,039 --> 00:19:18,319 It's always darker before it's lighter. I don't think that'll catch on Happy Hamburgers. 214 00:19:18,400 --> 00:19:22,920 Up ahead, Louis. We have a problem. Oh, thanks for 215 00:19:22,960 --> 00:19:25,559 letting me. What kind of a problem have we got? We gotta find 216 00:19:25,559 --> 00:19:29,559 a pond, a brook, or perhaps a lake. You've got a sudden 217 00:19:29,599 --> 00:19:32,799 desire to go swimming, No, not swimming. You forget something, Louis. 218 00:19:32,920 --> 00:19:36,240 I always forget something. What is it this time? Ponds, brooks 219 00:19:36,319 --> 00:19:40,519 or lakes create mud? Oh? Thanks a lot tonight. I don't need 220 00:19:40,519 --> 00:19:42,680 any mud. Call me hypersensitive. I just don't need any more. You 221 00:19:42,720 --> 00:19:52,039 better stop the car under these trees. Okay, you know about that mud. 222 00:19:52,200 --> 00:19:55,960 I have to spect you're mistaken. That's because you've got a suspicious nature. 223 00:19:56,200 --> 00:20:02,920 Get starting, head away from the house. Why we're looking first? 224 00:20:02,920 --> 00:20:06,200 I know, I know, and they rarely occur in house? Okay, 225 00:20:06,319 --> 00:20:11,519 okay? Does this watery object you're looking for have to be any place in 226 00:20:11,599 --> 00:20:15,640 particular? Or are we surveying in Westchester count It has to be on the 227 00:20:15,720 --> 00:20:18,039 Lawton's land. All that helps? Yeah? Probably they got one hundred and 228 00:20:18,079 --> 00:20:22,359 thirty nine acres and in the dark. How are we gonna search it? 229 00:20:22,200 --> 00:20:27,880 I understand? Hazel twigs. Don't wait anymore. That hound without a home 230 00:20:27,920 --> 00:20:33,000 again. I hope he goes away and be silly. Way we water meet 231 00:20:33,079 --> 00:20:36,920 up with him. You'll do all the wanting by yourself. Why because he's 232 00:20:36,960 --> 00:20:41,480 going to be a hazel twig? What is he went make? You mean? 233 00:20:41,480 --> 00:20:44,680 He'll help us find water? Actually, but what is all this excitement 234 00:20:44,720 --> 00:20:48,519 about water? Anyway? Among other things, the way water wish is away 235 00:20:48,599 --> 00:21:04,160 blood. No, I'll tell you a secret, mister Templar, I never 236 00:21:04,359 --> 00:21:08,319 like hikes. It can't be much longer. That dog is definitely leading us 237 00:21:08,359 --> 00:21:12,720 somewhere. She'll probably to a poney buried the last month. I don't do 238 00:21:12,880 --> 00:21:18,400 it. We're referring to the junior sized lakes that pond. Yes, no, 239 00:21:18,559 --> 00:21:23,680 what, oh fine, fine, he went swimming. We gotta go 240 00:21:23,720 --> 00:21:27,400 swimming too. No, we can walk around the pond. We're at one 241 00:21:27,519 --> 00:21:30,839 end of it. Hey, look at that on ground, hunker Hamburger has 242 00:21:30,880 --> 00:21:34,640 stopped. Yeah, just beyond the pond, in a small plump of trees. 243 00:21:36,119 --> 00:21:38,160 We're joining them. Of course, Come on, why because the land 244 00:21:38,200 --> 00:21:41,240 around the pond is muddy, all right, So the land around upon is 245 00:21:41,319 --> 00:21:45,759 money. This fills me with a great dog's not moving, he's waiting for 246 00:21:45,839 --> 00:21:48,599 him. Also fills my shoes with mud. Hey, you know what, 247 00:21:48,720 --> 00:21:52,359 half the trees, when they die, they become telegraphed. Stop swiping my 248 00:21:52,519 --> 00:22:00,880 jokes. That dog is going nut with joy. To be sure, everybody 249 00:22:00,960 --> 00:22:03,000 hasn't even gone near a tree. He's digging at the ground for sure. 250 00:22:03,079 --> 00:22:07,160 You had that bonny buried last month. Do you know what we're going to 251 00:22:07,200 --> 00:22:10,039 do, Louis, I got an unhappy idea. We're gonna copy the dog 252 00:22:10,119 --> 00:22:14,440 and dig right, I'm already looking for something to do with. What are 253 00:22:14,480 --> 00:22:17,400 we going to dig for? Something the dog lost? No, something we 254 00:22:17,640 --> 00:22:37,200 lost, Hey, mister Temples, a couple of feet more, I'll be 255 00:22:37,279 --> 00:22:41,079 in China. Don't be silly. You can't get to China by digging straight 256 00:22:41,160 --> 00:22:45,720 down, but you can't where you get is Australia tells me things like that, 257 00:22:48,519 --> 00:22:52,160 Hey, what is it, Louis? From where you are you can't 258 00:22:52,200 --> 00:22:55,680 see but from down here and I'll come to the edge of the hall. 259 00:22:59,200 --> 00:23:03,920 Well, Louis, we've kind of found that courts all over again. Look, 260 00:23:03,960 --> 00:23:06,759 you tell that dolls to shut up. I don't feel so now. 261 00:23:06,759 --> 00:23:08,960 I'll give you a hand, Louis. Help climb out of the hole. 262 00:23:11,279 --> 00:23:15,720 That sounds like a cap backfire roads too far away, Never mind climbing up 263 00:23:15,720 --> 00:23:19,680 here, Louis, I'm going to join you down there. Hey, what's 264 00:23:19,799 --> 00:23:22,839 going on? And I'm not gonna like the answer? And someone is having 265 00:23:22,880 --> 00:23:27,680 target practice with us for target wool. I could see a vague figure at 266 00:23:27,680 --> 00:23:32,519 the other side of the pond, too dark to identify. Oh, there 267 00:23:32,559 --> 00:23:37,000 goes that houn that walks like a horse. Probably figured was too crowded down 268 00:23:37,079 --> 00:23:41,640 here. Hey, mister Templar, I hate to mention this, but if 269 00:23:41,680 --> 00:23:45,079 the boy with the gun kind of world is over here. I realized that 270 00:23:47,000 --> 00:23:49,680 Louis this grave we're in isn't level. The edge on your side is lower 271 00:23:49,680 --> 00:23:53,000 than the one facing the pond, which means you can climb out without being 272 00:23:53,039 --> 00:23:56,119 seen. Make for the trees, then for the roads, your cab, 273 00:23:56,480 --> 00:23:57,839 and if you police him may be sober, then what are you going to 274 00:23:57,920 --> 00:24:02,400 do? Stay here as our gun shooting friend will head for the cab too. 275 00:24:02,640 --> 00:24:06,200 While I'm getting help, you are level to be getting gun. There's 276 00:24:06,240 --> 00:24:07,440 a chance we'll have to take, and believe me, I'm not taking it 277 00:24:07,440 --> 00:24:11,279 with any great joy, but we have no alternative. You better hurry, 278 00:24:11,559 --> 00:24:15,319 okay, mister Templar, But look at with the way the taxi businesses, 279 00:24:15,880 --> 00:24:18,559 be careful. I don't want to have to look for another fair and a 280 00:24:18,640 --> 00:24:38,640 condor you got shot in the woods. To me, well, it's been 281 00:24:38,680 --> 00:24:41,799 a lovely life. Simon, What on earth are you doing down there? 282 00:24:42,119 --> 00:24:45,960 What on earth? Not? Teddy? Is it fun down there? Because 283 00:24:45,960 --> 00:24:48,400 if it's fun, if I'm right down, Teddy, stay where you are. 284 00:24:52,119 --> 00:24:55,440 Hum may not be very fancy down here, but it is cozy. 285 00:24:56,680 --> 00:25:00,000 Simon. You didn't tell me you weren't alone. I didn't have a chance. 286 00:25:00,400 --> 00:25:02,960 You better not to look at him too long, Simon, what on 287 00:25:03,000 --> 00:25:04,680 earth are you doing down at the bottom of a grave with mister Lawton. 288 00:25:06,519 --> 00:25:10,240 He is mister Lawton, isn't he? Well, of course he is. 289 00:25:10,880 --> 00:25:12,799 Why do you say it in that funny way? Because we were supposed to 290 00:25:12,799 --> 00:25:17,160 think it was Dan Webster, except that I hadn't thought so none for a 291 00:25:17,200 --> 00:25:21,960 while and he was murdered. Teddy, did you murder it? No? 292 00:25:22,720 --> 00:25:26,079 Well, I'm certainly glad to hear that, because you're very handsome. But 293 00:25:26,160 --> 00:25:29,279 after all, even hansome fellow shouldn't murder people. What they should do with 294 00:25:29,519 --> 00:25:33,519 Teddy, Dan Webster, along with Missus Lawton murdered mister Lawton. Well, 295 00:25:33,519 --> 00:25:36,440 that's not very surprising, because I did have a crush on each other, 296 00:25:36,440 --> 00:25:40,200 and nobody loved mister Lawton anyway. They must have planned to leave town immediately 297 00:25:40,240 --> 00:25:42,720 after the murder. But uh, Teddy, did you happen to notice a 298 00:25:42,759 --> 00:25:47,799 dog about? Not to mention Dan Webster, I heard somebody running in a 299 00:25:47,839 --> 00:25:52,079 dog barking before I found you? Mmm, dog muster frightened webster? Are 300 00:25:52,319 --> 00:25:55,559 so that's all right? How did you find me? I noticed your car 301 00:25:55,559 --> 00:25:57,240 outside the Happy Hamburger. I lived down the road a bit and was going 302 00:25:57,279 --> 00:26:00,960 home, so I knew he was someplace around. And when I was a 303 00:26:00,960 --> 00:26:03,720 little girl, I used to be a girl scout. Because you wanted to 304 00:26:03,799 --> 00:26:08,119 learn how to tie out to bill campfire, No, because I wanted to 305 00:26:08,200 --> 00:26:11,680 learn how to track a man. I had a feeling it would come in 306 00:26:11,759 --> 00:26:22,599 handy it had. Did anybody call for a cab? Louis excuse me, 307 00:26:22,720 --> 00:26:26,759 daddy, Hello Louis, Hello, Louis says, I thought you'd gone to 308 00:26:26,759 --> 00:26:30,240 town for hell. It would take too long. Think maybe I could get 309 00:26:30,279 --> 00:26:34,359 behind the villain and surprise him. So instead, mister Templey, you surprised 310 00:26:34,400 --> 00:26:52,359 me. Back to the Hamburger again, well hungry, No, except perhaps 311 00:26:52,359 --> 00:26:56,480 for justice Simon. The Lawton's car is out front, missus Lawton's inn. 312 00:26:56,519 --> 00:27:00,240 It come on into the cab this way. It'd be as quiet as you 313 00:27:00,319 --> 00:27:10,359 can't. I can't see us under the trees here, can your ignition on? 314 00:27:10,559 --> 00:27:17,400 Louis be ready to start the car. It's ready, that's just coming 315 00:27:17,480 --> 00:27:27,039 out of the house carrying a couple of suitcases getting into the car. Here 316 00:27:27,079 --> 00:27:33,720 they go, Louis, I know, follow them, may not notice they're 317 00:27:33,720 --> 00:27:36,960 being followed, and supposing they do, I will have to chance that. 318 00:27:37,200 --> 00:27:40,839 Okay, but look, I don't mind so much being shot myself. But 319 00:27:40,920 --> 00:27:44,480 don't forget this here can't belongs to the company. I can't afford to get 320 00:27:44,519 --> 00:28:00,759 bullets in it. We're coming into Exbrook now, mister temple Teddy. At 321 00:28:00,759 --> 00:28:03,319 this hour of the night, no one would be about him. I right, 322 00:28:03,480 --> 00:28:07,440 that is kind of light. The police station is where the next block 323 00:28:07,039 --> 00:28:10,279 in that case. Catch up with him, Louie, quick, well, 324 00:28:10,319 --> 00:28:12,680 I should have a collision with him, preferably a small size when you're a 325 00:28:12,680 --> 00:28:15,839 good driver, Louis, run them off the road. But the caver mind 326 00:28:15,960 --> 00:28:21,480 that hit them as soon as we get opposite the station. Okay, I 327 00:28:21,519 --> 00:28:26,240 only hope it will show on the meter. We're getting close to him and 328 00:28:26,200 --> 00:28:48,880 hit thanks going, Louis. Oh didn't leave a scratch of fender, say 329 00:28:48,920 --> 00:28:52,440 one of those tops polite, which is very unusual. And Louis, be 330 00:28:52,720 --> 00:28:56,599 still, why I have to explain things to Teddy here? From what I 331 00:28:56,720 --> 00:29:00,279 heard sheet on Louie. I shut up, please, Simon tell me, 332 00:29:00,400 --> 00:29:03,440 well, you see, teddy, missus Lawton and Webster planned to kill mister 333 00:29:03,480 --> 00:29:07,640 Lawton and then leave town, figuring no one would ever know. How did 334 00:29:07,680 --> 00:29:10,519 they expect to get away with it? Actually, their idea of placing the 335 00:29:10,519 --> 00:29:14,279 corpse in the trunk compartment of the cab was clever. Normally the body wouldn't 336 00:29:14,279 --> 00:29:18,039 have been discovered for days and then miles away from expero. But instead you 337 00:29:18,119 --> 00:29:21,960 got a flat and came back very lucky flat. But not for missus Lawton 338 00:29:22,000 --> 00:29:26,000 and Webster. She got quite a shock when she saw her smiling faces, 339 00:29:26,039 --> 00:29:29,359 but she kept her head and sent Webster out to remove the body from Louis's 340 00:29:29,400 --> 00:29:33,319 cabin hide it. The only mistake she made was being two housewifely, what 341 00:29:33,400 --> 00:29:37,960 do you mean? Oh? When Webster returned, her instinctive reaction was to 342 00:29:37,000 --> 00:29:41,559 tell him not to track mud on the rug. If he'd been asleep in 343 00:29:41,599 --> 00:29:44,680 the house, there shouldn't have been mud on his shoes. Therefore, I 344 00:29:44,759 --> 00:29:48,799 concluded he'd been out I see, and when the body was missing, I 345 00:29:48,839 --> 00:29:52,279 knew that he'd buried it. The mud also told me the burial place had 346 00:29:52,279 --> 00:29:56,160 to be near water and mister Lawton's dog led you to the burial place and 347 00:29:56,920 --> 00:30:02,480 that's where I found you. Simon m Yes, but we were kind of 348 00:30:02,519 --> 00:30:08,039 interrupted back there, so wow, wow, wow, Louis, I'm not 349 00:30:08,079 --> 00:30:11,559 hearing a thing. Was she the thing in my review mirror? Louis, 350 00:30:11,759 --> 00:30:17,480 we've reached Teddy's pay stop the car? Okay, what sign? My dear. 351 00:30:17,519 --> 00:30:22,200 You're very lovely, but you're very young, so I'm afraid this is 352 00:30:22,240 --> 00:30:37,920 where the farmer's daughter goes back to the farm. You've been listening to another 353 00:30:38,039 --> 00:30:42,400 transcribed adventure of a Saint, the robin Hood of Modern Crime.

Bryan and Dave Light. Larry Dobkin 356 00:30:52,640 --> 00:30:56,279 was Louie. This is Bencent Brice inviting you to join us again next week 357 00:30:56,279 --> 00:31:22,400 at the same time for another exciting adventure of the Saint.

Three chimes mean 364 00:31:47,799 --> 00:31:51,559 Good Times on NBC. Wednesday marks the return to the air of that delightful 365 00:31:51,559 --> 00:31:53,839 couple, Mister and Missus. Ronald Coleman has more good Times with the Halls 366 00:31:53,880 --> 00:31:57,720 of Ivy with Mister and Missus Ronald Coleman returns to NBC next Wednesday. Take 367 00:31:57,759 --> 00:32:01,559 a date. Here are the Halls of next Wednesday evening. The times are 368 00:32:01,599 --> 00:32:06,720 your Invitation next to Sam Spay, then an hour long drama on Theater Guild 369 00:32:06,799 --> 00:32:22,279 on MBB. Welcome back, Well. I continue to appreciate just the sheer 370 00:32:22,599 --> 00:32:27,240 number of rules that Arthur Q. Brian is getting here, particularly noteworthy for 371 00:32:27,279 --> 00:32:31,279 those of us who primarily remember him as Elmer five. And I did find 372 00:32:31,319 --> 00:32:37,720 that whole part about caves not getting lost and really knowing their way around interesting 373 00:32:37,839 --> 00:32:44,240 because that's been something I've traditionally held to, though in the last couple of 374 00:32:44,279 --> 00:32:46,839 times I've taken Calves. I don't do it too often. I've been very 375 00:32:46,880 --> 00:32:52,279 surprised to find that in the twenty first century we have cabvees who don't actually 376 00:32:52,359 --> 00:32:57,279 know their way around the area and are actually totally dependent on the GBS. 377 00:32:57,480 --> 00:33:00,680 Though I don't know in this case, that's probably a little bit of twenty 378 00:33:00,720 --> 00:33:06,000 first century knowledge that would have benefited LOWI. But at any rate, that'll 379 00:33:06,039 --> 00:33:10,240 actually do it for today. We'll be back tomorrow with Crime and Peter Chambers, 380 00:33:10,240 --> 00:33:15,119 and join us back here next Monday or another episode of The Saint. 381 00:33:15,240 --> 00:33:20,160 In the meantime, sendra comments to Box thirteen at Great Detectives dot net, 382 00:33:20,200 --> 00:33:23,160 follow us on Twitter, A Radio Attactives, and become one of our friends 383 00:33:23,200 --> 00:33:28,920 on Facebook, Facebook dot com.
