Oh Yes, ain't you gonna ask me

25
00:03:16,520 --> 00:03:20,680
in partner? Hello cowboy, if
you've lost your horse, I'm in I

26
00:03:20,759 --> 00:03:25,560
gotta talk to you. I gotta
all right to come in partner? What

27
00:03:25,680 --> 00:03:30,919
can I do for you? You
templar the man they call the Saint.

28
00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:36,520
That's what's engraved on my halo.
L I'm McCowan. They call me texs

29
00:03:36,639 --> 00:03:40,000
Well it fits. Born and raised
in Texas and aiming to die there.

30
00:03:40,479 --> 00:03:45,479
Somebody's topping your somebody don't care where
it happens, just so long as it's

31
00:03:45,560 --> 00:03:49,919
now here. Look at this hat. A funny place for air holes.

32
00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:53,319
Not so funny when they're bullet holes
though. Run out of rustlers to shoot

33
00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:57,879
hens. I was bushwhack partner.
I was stepping out of a taxi in

34
00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:00,639
some sight wine and bushwhack and pool
cat took a shot at me. Well

35
00:04:00,840 --> 00:04:06,000
we'll head him off at Eagle Pass. Go on. I came to New

36
00:04:06,080 --> 00:04:10,919
York to have fun, not to
be killed. That's logical. You reckon,

37
00:04:10,960 --> 00:04:14,560
you can ride shotgun on me.
You've got me confused with a police

38
00:04:14,560 --> 00:04:17,199
department. I understand they have a
special bureau that does nothing but protect visiting

39
00:04:17,279 --> 00:04:21,759
card I don't want the police department. I'll be I'm not in business.

40
00:04:23,759 --> 00:04:28,079
Look, money's money and you're human. Oh so you've noticed that, have

41
00:04:28,199 --> 00:04:31,000
you? And I ain't exactly a
poor man. Raising beef's a big money

42
00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:34,800
business these days. Yes, so
he's buying it. What do you fellows?

43
00:04:34,839 --> 00:04:40,759
Fatten those cows on? That makes
us stake so expensive broccoli. You

44
00:04:40,879 --> 00:04:45,560
don't want the money, it's only
money. I'll but a cow. That's

45
00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:48,879
an interesting thorn. But the management
of this apartment house is so stuffy.

46
00:04:49,279 --> 00:04:53,639
The only life stock permitted is dogs
and cats. Oh, I don't mean

47
00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:57,839
a cow on the hoof, one
for the broiler. I beg your pardon.

48
00:04:57,920 --> 00:05:01,079
When I get home. I'll personally
hermail you once a week the best

49
00:05:01,160 --> 00:05:05,079
derned steak this side of Fort Worth. O you interest me? Well,

50
00:05:05,839 --> 00:05:12,879
I'm bored, Go ahead and brand
me good. He made me feel better,

51
00:05:13,040 --> 00:05:15,639
You made me feel hungry. See
that they don't get killed, Partner,

52
00:05:15,720 --> 00:05:19,240
That's all you're supposed to do.
I am always like to do a

53
00:05:19,240 --> 00:05:23,639
little more than I'm supposed to.
I'll see that neither of us gets killed.

54
00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:27,279
Now, what's all the shooting for. In a couple of days,

55
00:05:27,319 --> 00:05:30,120
I'm going to Chicago to have a
talk with a fellow. The fellow knows

56
00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:33,800
I'm coming, and he ain't hankerin
none to see me. Oh so he

57
00:05:33,959 --> 00:05:38,920
sends someone to hit you off with
a gun him. Why, that's just

58
00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:42,839
a little business matter, you see. He Ah. But come on,

59
00:05:43,040 --> 00:05:46,040
partner, tell you all about it
somewhere else. This is New York City.

60
00:05:46,120 --> 00:05:49,000
Let's go live it up some and
we can talk during it. And

61
00:05:49,040 --> 00:05:53,439
what have you got in mind?
Heard about a saloon where a dozen pretty

62
00:05:53,480 --> 00:05:57,920
girls come out and dance the can
can. I'm fixing the cut one up

mister Templer? Greenwich pillage fifty second
stream? Now about Chicago? You know

71
00:07:03,279 --> 00:07:06,800
I got a sudden hankering to see
that old horse in mine. Uh huh,

72
00:07:08,959 --> 00:07:13,959
please text don't cry now when you
get to Chicago's an old cow pony.

73
00:07:14,480 --> 00:07:17,279
But I wouldn't swap him for all
the horses in Kentucky. Yes,

74
00:07:17,360 --> 00:07:21,040
I felt that way about a girl
once. Now about the man in Chicago,

75
00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:27,279
that cringing pool catch? Oh,
so you do remember he underwighed a

00:07:27,439 --> 00:07:31,879
thousand ahead of my stairs on a
rigged up scale. Cost me twenty maybe

77
00:07:32,079 --> 00:07:36,000
thirty pounds ahead, and that's a
lot of tea boons. Who is this

00:10:28,840 --> 00:10:33,679
now, mister Templer, hello us, and how are we today? You're

102
00:10:33,039 --> 00:10:37,440
fine? How am I? I'll
let you know just as soon as I've

103
00:10:37,480 --> 00:10:41,399
checked your path. What are you
doing for dinner tonight? I have a

104
00:10:41,600 --> 00:10:46,440
day too bad. You are not
leaving the hospital until tomorrow. How can

105
00:10:46,480 --> 00:10:52,279
you ask me out? It's just
a form of exercising. You're very beautiful,

106
00:10:52,759 --> 00:10:56,360
mister Templer. If you keep me
talking, how can I check your

107
00:10:56,440 --> 00:11:00,759
path? Why bother to see if
it's normal? Of course, if my

108
00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:05,559
pulse is normal when you check it, then I'm not Oh, you and

109
00:11:05,720 --> 00:11:11,679
your job Oh, I forgot you
have another visitor? Oh blonde or brunette,

110
00:11:11,919 --> 00:11:18,080
redhead? Oh cute, I think
so, But you wouldn't know it's

111
00:11:18,159 --> 00:11:24,360
that nice young lieutenant from the homicide
you're oh again? I suppose it would

112
00:11:24,360 --> 00:11:30,440
be pointless to tell him. I
now obviously, can it, Lieutenant Barden?

113
00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:35,279
I was just going, thank you, Molly, you're backing Lieutenant you.

114
00:11:35,440 --> 00:11:39,480
You don't have to ask Lieutenant Barden
to answers no. Thanks. Now

115
00:11:39,519 --> 00:11:43,279
it's a question. Have I remembered
anything I forgot to mention about Tex McGann's

116
00:11:43,320 --> 00:11:46,559
killer, isn't it? No?
This time I'm here with an invitation,

117
00:11:46,679 --> 00:11:50,919
Oh, a party, the morgue, and oh that the doctor told me

118
00:11:50,960 --> 00:11:54,159
I was past the critical stage.
The picture more down at headquarters, more

119
00:11:54,279 --> 00:11:58,720
romantically known as Rug's gallery. You
want me to look at faces as soon

120
00:11:58,720 --> 00:12:01,639
as he's strong enough. Might just
be that the guy who dumped McGowan left

121
00:12:01,679 --> 00:12:05,759
his face with us one time or
another. Well, it'll be a nice

122
00:12:05,840 --> 00:12:09,799
change in the routine. What will
getting out of here hand me my clothes?

123
00:12:09,840 --> 00:12:11,080
Wutenna? Wait a minute, you're
not due to both this joint till

124
00:12:11,120 --> 00:12:16,279
tomorrow, Lieutenant Phardon, are you
a public servant. I'm a cop,

125
00:12:16,399 --> 00:12:20,559
so I'm a public servant. Hand
me my clothes. Sure positive. Besides,

126
00:12:22,039 --> 00:12:24,879
there's very little point in the patient
staying in the hospital when he's making

127
00:12:24,919 --> 00:12:28,919
so little progress. Throwing up a
concussion in three days time is in progress.

128
00:12:28,320 --> 00:12:31,720
I mean with that nurse, I'm
not getting anywhere. Yeah, I

129
00:12:31,799 --> 00:12:37,000
know, you know, because I
am. Oh, I don't look at

130
00:12:37,039 --> 00:12:39,240
me like that, saint. We
public servants got to live too, you

131
00:12:39,320 --> 00:12:52,039
know. Well, come on,
we'll go look at pictures. Well,

132
00:12:52,639 --> 00:12:58,240
no, this one, no,
take a look through these. No,

133
00:13:00,720 --> 00:13:05,399
oh, I'll take this one.
Huh oh. For how did a pin

134
00:13:05,480 --> 00:13:09,080
up girls picture getting here? I
don't know, but it certainly breaks the

135
00:13:09,159 --> 00:13:24,240
monotony this one? No this?
No, how about no one of these?

136
00:13:26,279 --> 00:13:31,000
Well where the guy who killed text
McGowan. I know my old geometry

137
00:13:31,080 --> 00:13:50,000
teacha this o ye, pardon me? No him? Hey, yeah,

138
00:13:50,200 --> 00:13:54,200
I know the boy most likely to
succeed in your graduating club, The boy

139
00:13:54,399 --> 00:13:58,399
most likely to get the electric chair
for shooting down text McGown At last,

140
00:13:58,480 --> 00:14:03,679

141
00:14:03,720 --> 00:14:09,000
files. It's practically done. Thanks
supper, Thanks refused. I have got

142
00:14:09,080 --> 00:14:11,000
a slight interest in this tricker man
myself. You know, if you don't

143
00:14:11,039 --> 00:14:15,519
believe me, ask my head.
I see what you mean. Will you

144
00:14:15,600 --> 00:14:28,080
staying till I check on Nmushenko?
I'll staying well. I got Mushenko where

145
00:14:28,440 --> 00:14:33,600
Chicago cops out there grabbed him when
he came off a plane. Good are

146
00:14:33,600 --> 00:14:35,960

it? Then? I did nice of

147
00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:39,159
you to ask. You can flinch
the identification for us. When are we

148
00:14:39,240 --> 00:14:43,159
leaving? Well, it's a train
at midnight. It's enough time for you.

bag. I suppose I pick you

150
00:14:46,559 --> 00:14:50,360
what your apartment in about half hour, i'd be ready. Thanks again for

151
00:14:50,399 --> 00:14:56,240
the invitation, pardon and lieutenant,
I think I'll forgive you forgive me for

152
00:14:56,600 --> 00:15:09,879
stealing my nurse when I was unconscious
by the time you got home, saying

153
00:15:11,039 --> 00:15:16,720
you know what I am, uh
animal, vegetable or mineral. I'm the

154
00:15:16,799 --> 00:15:20,200
fellow that watched you come out of
a little building, a police headquarters where

155
00:15:20,240 --> 00:15:22,240
they keep the pictures. It's an
interesting hobby, I admit, but I

156
00:15:22,399 --> 00:15:28,519
just luged you once sat when my
cousin's gun jam depty. Then I guess

157
00:15:28,639 --> 00:15:31,879
now I gotta make it more payment. Don't bother on my account. It's

158
00:15:31,879 --> 00:15:35,799
not my cousin's account. You're the
only fellow can send him to the hot

159
00:15:35,840 --> 00:15:39,159
seat. You're the only eye witness
he killed that cowboy. You'll excuse me

160
00:15:39,240 --> 00:15:43,840
while I get on with my packing, won't you where you're going? See?

161
00:15:43,080 --> 00:15:48,039
You ain't gonna need to pack nothing
for no. You think you're going

162
00:15:48,080 --> 00:15:52,120
to Chicago, but you ain't seen. Well must you be politic at a

163
00:15:52,159 --> 00:15:54,799
time like this? You ain't gonna
go to Chicago and put no finger on

164
00:15:56,000 --> 00:16:00,279
the now Wait a minute, you're
gonna go to Chicago? And then the

165
00:16:00,399 --> 00:16:07,399
beat of the death right in New
York? Wow as me? You call

166
00:16:07,519 --> 00:16:17,519
that detective Lieutenant Varden? Would you
like to meet him? We'll see you

167
00:16:17,600 --> 00:16:27,759
again. Come in, Varden.
What are you sitting on the floor for?

168
00:16:30,399 --> 00:16:33,679
I've been entertaining you know company?
Yeah? What happened to him?

169
00:16:34,320 --> 00:16:37,159
Oh? Well, no, he
was going after them out the service door.

170
00:16:37,360 --> 00:16:45,200
Tranquilary flu shy only of policemen.
So e belli jan He caught me

171
00:16:45,320 --> 00:16:48,159
with my vitality down. Remember I
was a hospital case only the day before

172
00:16:48,240 --> 00:16:52,240
yesterday. You need protecting. Come
on, let's catch that train. You

173
00:16:52,279 --> 00:17:10,519
can tell me the whole sad story
on the word of the station. It's

174
00:17:10,519 --> 00:17:12,640
a good thing this train had a
second goad of painting, because that's what

175
00:17:12,759 --> 00:17:18,440
we called it by. Yeah,
this is drawing room. D excuse me,

176
00:17:18,039 --> 00:17:21,319
Gould, one of you gentlemen,
tell me where to find drawing room,

177
00:17:21,400 --> 00:17:25,480
see one right now? You would
better let me handle it. Garden,

178
00:17:25,839 --> 00:17:30,640
you're police in us. Lup dropped
drawing room. See, I'm so

179
00:17:30,880 --> 00:17:33,440
helpless on trains. Oh, that's
a pity. I always lost. I'm

180
00:17:33,519 --> 00:17:38,319
always finding things, are you I? Oh, there's drawing room, see

181
00:17:38,440 --> 00:17:45,680
right next to yours. We're neighbors
sometimes. That's a very interesting relationship if

182
00:17:45,759 --> 00:17:48,880
you should ever want to borrow anything, neighbor, I've got everything, Yes

183
00:17:49,119 --> 00:17:55,519
you have. But if you should
need something, well, after all,

184
00:17:55,559 --> 00:18:00,599
what are neighbors for? I never
was really sure until now. Well,

185
00:18:00,279 --> 00:18:10,440
goodbye, neighbor. You know,
Lieutenant, these trains are getting better equipment

186
00:18:10,519 --> 00:18:33,640
all the time you deal Garden,
Lieutenant, m Oh, what's my dear?

187
00:18:33,039 --> 00:18:37,200
Get her off your mind. She'll
be there when you get banks.

188
00:18:37,519 --> 00:18:41,519
Although they are rather prone to lope
with interns. Templar, what are you

189
00:18:41,599 --> 00:18:45,720
talking about, my nurse? Or
should I say, oh, nurse get

190
00:18:45,759 --> 00:18:48,839
her off your mind and start concentrating
on who hired nick Nicko, Shinchoe or

191
00:18:48,880 --> 00:18:53,319
smoke down. Text mcgon, hey, where are you going? You don't

192
00:18:53,359 --> 00:18:59,680
have to be a detective to guess
at Oh, I'm tired of cards.

193
00:18:59,720 --> 00:19:22,359
I'm I'm going to be niably for
a while. Yeah, it's you,

194
00:19:22,799 --> 00:19:27,400
neighbor. See, I knew it
would come to this. I'd like to

195
00:19:27,480 --> 00:19:33,279
borrow something. What have you got
mine? Oh? Anything? What have

196
00:19:33,359 --> 00:19:38,119
you got? Maybe we'd better talk
it over. My name's Linda Jargard Simon

197
00:19:38,240 --> 00:19:42,839
Templar. Oh it sounds very distinguished. Won't you come in? Oh my

198
00:19:44,000 --> 00:19:48,839
life, I've been easier to persuade
it. Now. I want you to

199
00:19:48,880 --> 00:19:52,160
tell me all about yourself. You're
going to Chicago for business pleasure. Well

200
00:19:53,240 --> 00:19:56,960
it started out to be business and
your friend. When I first metioned the

201
00:19:57,079 --> 00:20:00,720
quarter before, didn't didn't I hear
youse say he was a policeman. Did

202
00:20:00,759 --> 00:20:06,559
you to be fascinated by crime and
policeman? And I bet you're going to

203
00:20:06,680 --> 00:20:11,000
cover to arrest somebody. Oh,
you must tell me about it, please,

204
00:20:11,400 --> 00:20:14,759
it's so fascinating. Only in the
comic book the man you're going to

205
00:20:14,880 --> 00:20:17,799
arrest? What did he do?
Is he a bank robber of murderer?

206
00:20:18,039 --> 00:20:22,759
Please tell me everything? I'm all
ears there? You are fancy that?

207
00:20:36,039 --> 00:20:41,319
Oh Simon. So enjoyed the trip, but he didn't tell me half of

208
00:20:41,400 --> 00:20:47,000
what I expected to hear about crime
criminals. There were many more important things

209
00:20:47,079 --> 00:20:49,680
to talk about. Do you happen
to have a phone number? Hand you?

210
00:20:51,119 --> 00:20:55,599
Only my own? But I don't
think I'm going to give it to

211
00:20:55,720 --> 00:21:02,079
you? Is that being neighboring?
Why we were? Lieutenant Barden on his

212
00:21:02,160 --> 00:21:06,119
way to fetch min There's an impatient
look on his face. Look, Linda,

213
00:21:06,200 --> 00:21:07,319
when can I see you? All
right? I don't mean to break

214
00:21:07,400 --> 00:21:11,680
up what appears to be a beautiful
friendship, but we're expected at Chicago Police

215
00:21:11,720 --> 00:21:18,559
headquarters today. In other words,
right about me in the arm? Only

216
00:21:18,599 --> 00:21:25,680
in the arm, Linda? She
blue? Right after the shot. I'll

217
00:21:25,720 --> 00:21:27,920
be all right. You go after
her, all right? Botten? Excuse

218
00:21:29,039 --> 00:21:41,480
me? Please let this please please
come on, buddy girl, tour brunette.

219
00:21:41,519 --> 00:21:45,920
You see him in that kid?
I want to turn it out up

220
00:21:45,920 --> 00:22:08,079
there? Follow her? How are
you hey? Missy? Her cab stopped,

221
00:22:08,240 --> 00:22:15,400
so I see pull up to the
cab right here. She's getting her

222
00:22:17,079 --> 00:22:21,440
running that apartment. Okay, this
is the end of the line. Wait

223
00:22:21,519 --> 00:22:23,039
for me here. It ain't gonna
be a long is it? My shift

224
00:22:23,160 --> 00:22:26,240
ends and a half an hour.
I've been pushing this hack all night.

225
00:22:26,359 --> 00:22:40,440
I'll be bank in a few minutes. I don't worry about it. Who

226
00:22:40,599 --> 00:22:45,519
is it as Miss Jervis Flowers?
All right? So I'm not a rope?

227
00:22:47,880 --> 00:22:51,079
No, you can't come here?
Sure I can't see I'm in.

228
00:22:52,319 --> 00:22:55,839
This is outrageous, not nearly as
outrageous as putting her finger on a fellow

229
00:22:55,880 --> 00:22:57,920
so that a rifleman knows who to
shoot down. I haven't the slightest idea

230
00:22:57,960 --> 00:23:00,559
what you're talking about. Sure you
have, baby, Sure you have?

231
00:23:02,359 --> 00:23:06,079
That bullet was for me, wasn't
it. Lieutenant Barden just happened to stroll

232
00:23:06,160 --> 00:23:10,599
into it? Diamond darling? Why
should Why should I want to have you

233
00:23:10,839 --> 00:23:14,319
killed? I don't know you that
well, but you know me well enough

234
00:23:14,359 --> 00:23:18,480
to know that I'm the only eyewitness
to a murder and that I should be

235
00:23:18,519 --> 00:23:22,240
eliminated, don't you. But what
reason would I have if I should fail

236
00:23:22,279 --> 00:23:26,759
to identify a certain Nick Nimoshenko as
the gunman who shot down Texmakan. Then

237
00:23:27,200 --> 00:23:32,359
the possibility of mister Nimoshenko's telling who
hired him to do the job is very

238
00:23:32,400 --> 00:23:34,599
slightly. I still have no idea
what you're talking about. Them supposed we

239
00:23:34,759 --> 00:23:38,839
go down to police headquarters and I'll
tell you all about it. Well,

240
00:23:38,880 --> 00:23:42,160
it's about time. How long was
I supposed to keep him talking before you

241
00:23:42,279 --> 00:23:45,319
ready to swing that club? Oh? I thought i'd let him feel he

242
00:23:45,440 --> 00:23:48,880
was living for a while, you
know, Linda, I told it sucker.

243
00:23:48,960 --> 00:23:52,000
He hadn't know to come to Chicago. Oh, I told him.

244
00:24:00,039 --> 00:24:11,759
Oh, George, getting to wake
up is splendid. There's some questions I

245
00:24:11,880 --> 00:24:17,000
must ask him. He's beginning to
flutter his eyes. Boys, what oh

246
00:24:17,480 --> 00:24:22,359
y answer? What are you three
staring at him? Haven't you ever seen

247
00:24:22,400 --> 00:24:25,839
a man with two heads? Before? Feeling better, mister Templar, not

248
00:24:26,000 --> 00:24:30,279
as good as when I was unconscious. It can be a range. Making

249
00:24:30,359 --> 00:24:33,720
you unconscious is how I am in
my pain. You had a better future

250
00:24:33,759 --> 00:24:37,240
when you were swinging through the trees. At least you were at your own

251
00:24:37,319 --> 00:24:41,640
boss. That means you're calling me
an ape. The first HiT's wear it

252
00:24:41,759 --> 00:24:45,960
all right, wise guy, now
my mind, Stanley, Stanley, throw

253
00:24:47,079 --> 00:24:56,000
him a banana. Stanley better not
irritating diamond Darling, he's hot headed.

254
00:24:56,279 --> 00:24:59,359
As soon he'll be sitting in a
chair that's going to make him hot all

255
00:24:59,400 --> 00:25:03,359
over, And so will you,
Linda. And last night on the train

256
00:25:03,480 --> 00:25:10,279
you said such sweet things to me. Remember I remember next time I go

257
00:25:10,359 --> 00:25:14,720
any while? Right afraid you meet
a better class of tramp. Georgie's grouchy,

258
00:25:15,720 --> 00:25:18,079
aren't you? Simon Darling? Bab
pestering him? Linda, let's get

259
00:25:18,160 --> 00:25:22,480
under this, Yes, let's text
McGown as a talkative man. Was he

260
00:25:22,599 --> 00:25:27,160
that you tell me? It's hardly
likely that you'd agree to interest yourself in

261
00:25:27,200 --> 00:25:33,960
this affair without knowing all the facts, facts concerning me. Who are you

262
00:25:33,759 --> 00:25:37,680
and what you do besides the train
apes? George Haggerty, I'm a cattle

263
00:25:37,759 --> 00:25:44,200
broker. Oh, I'll bet you
haven't been called honest weight Haggerty much lately.

264
00:25:45,039 --> 00:25:48,599
Yes, sir, he did tell
you what you do to uscale could

265
00:25:48,960 --> 00:25:52,440
outmode reducing diets. What else did
McGowan tell you you had it? No

266
00:25:52,640 --> 00:26:00,319
springs Stanley? Okay, the pleasure
is all right? All right? Ay,

267
00:26:00,880 --> 00:26:03,720
let's keep him conscious for a while, shall we. You needn't bother

268
00:26:04,519 --> 00:26:08,480
if mister Temple, I trust you
don't think all this is just idle curiosity

269
00:26:08,559 --> 00:26:12,079
on my part. Oh, don't
apologize. I want to know how much

270
00:26:12,200 --> 00:26:15,279
McGowan told you, so that i'll
know how much you might have told the

271
00:26:15,319 --> 00:26:19,519
police. Thanks for the blueprint.
What I mean is, if certain facts

272
00:26:19,559 --> 00:26:23,720
are known to the police, then
it might be well, it's quite possible

273
00:26:23,839 --> 00:26:29,279
that is that they'll be able to
stop stamping yourself. You want to know

274
00:26:29,359 --> 00:26:33,839
if the police have anything that establishes
you as Nimachenko sponsor. Well have they

275
00:26:34,440 --> 00:26:37,480
next time you see old Bob,
But get the top of your head shaved.

276
00:26:37,720 --> 00:26:41,440
The ones up at Sing Sing are
so messy. You're lying. They

277
00:26:41,480 --> 00:26:45,640
don't know, Okay, I'm lying. Sweat it out, killer, Sweat

278
00:26:45,680 --> 00:26:52,599
it out. You mean beat it
out, don't you? Stanley likely a

279
00:26:52,720 --> 00:27:11,880
year, not too lightly, But
don't kill him until later. Well,

280
00:27:11,039 --> 00:27:15,400
dample going to talk to me?
Now, what's the youth, George.

281
00:27:15,599 --> 00:27:19,359
I'll never tell the truth. I
know I had a date with him.

282
00:27:19,519 --> 00:27:22,839
You're boasting. Just a waste of
time. Let's Stanley get it over with.

283
00:27:23,240 --> 00:27:26,000
That's what I say. Boys.
If the cops do anything about essay'd

284
00:27:26,119 --> 00:27:29,799
ve been here a long time ago. Yes, I suppose you're right.

285
00:27:30,720 --> 00:27:33,960
Oh, it's Stanley then, Oh
anyway, I don't care, well I

286
00:27:34,079 --> 00:27:37,160
do. That's what attracted me to
you from the start. And do you

287
00:27:37,599 --> 00:27:41,920
looked like a neat house? Shut
up? All right? Take him out

288
00:27:41,920 --> 00:27:45,960
of here and throw him into Lake
Michigan. But I didn't bring my bathing

289
00:27:45,039 --> 00:27:51,160
suit? Who the least idea?
Shall I answer it? You have to

290
00:27:51,839 --> 00:27:55,119
Domin knows you're in very well.
Whoever it is, get rid of him

291
00:27:55,119 --> 00:28:00,839
in the past. Yes, a
guy, And I'm gonna Penny's ears back,

292
00:28:02,079 --> 00:28:06,880
That's what I'm gonna do. Look
here, you can't Burston. You'd

293
00:28:06,920 --> 00:28:08,160
be surprised at what I can do. And I'm sorry, and believe me.

294
00:28:08,279 --> 00:28:15,039
I'm oh. So there you are, hello, Captain Carson. Go

295
00:28:15,279 --> 00:28:18,000
giving me no lip? Brother,
I told you I was off, dude

296

You're listening to the great detectives of old

338
00:32:24,119 --> 00:32:34,640
time Radio with Adam Graham and now
let's get back into the show. Welcome

339
00:32:34,759 --> 00:32:37,519
back. Well, my post show
commentary is gonna be a little bit shorter

340
00:32:37,680 --> 00:32:43,960
than a dissipated because I thought John
Daner played the role of the cowboy,

341
00:32:44,079 --> 00:32:49,680
and I was all ready to discuss
all the ins and outs of John Daner

342
00:32:49,799 --> 00:32:52,799
as cowboys, but according to the
closing credits, that wasn't the case.

343
00:32:52,880 --> 00:32:58,519
So never mind. I do think
it was a nice twist at the end,

344
00:32:58,799 --> 00:33:07,559
and you know, it is something
that cabbies on detective shows are shown

345
00:33:07,640 --> 00:33:12,960
to me among the greatest allies that
you can have in the war against crime.

346
00:33:14,480 --> 00:33:19,319
All right, well, now time
for some listener comments and feedback and

347
00:33:20,039 --> 00:33:25,880
Laurence comments. Tom Conway has always
been my favorite actor. I particularly like

348
00:33:27,079 --> 00:33:30,599
when he played a detective, which
he did a lot on radio Sherlock Holmes,

349
00:33:30,640 --> 00:33:36,279
in The Saint on television as Mark
Saber, or in the movies as

350
00:33:36,359 --> 00:33:42,839
the Falcon, which all of his
Simon Templar radio adventures were around to listen

351
00:33:42,920 --> 00:33:47,279
to. And indeed, it's true
that he has a lot of lost episodes.

352
00:33:47,720 --> 00:33:53,039
If there's any good news for fans
of Tom Conway, it's that all

353
00:33:53,079 --> 00:34:00,319
of these missing episodes were from nineteen
fifty one, where NBC was transcribed so

354
00:34:00,480 --> 00:34:05,319
many episodes, so the odds that
there are some more out there are probably

355
00:34:06,240 --> 00:34:12,639
better than for your average show.
And I think that all the same episodes

356
00:34:12,719 --> 00:34:19,079
missing, those that NBC transcribed and
we're putting out are probably the ones most

357
00:34:19,199 --> 00:34:24,960
likely to be found. And given
that most of Vincent Price NBC episodes are

358
00:34:24,960 --> 00:34:31,079
already in existence, I wouldn't be
surprised if some Tom Conway episodes showed up.

359
00:34:31,440 --> 00:34:37,519
Though. Actually, in following Old
Time Radio very regularly for the past

360
00:34:37,079 --> 00:34:42,599
six or seven years. The only
new episode of The Saint to show up

361
00:34:43,039 --> 00:34:47,159
was the Miracle Tea Party pilot from
the World War Two era, which is

362
00:34:47,199 --> 00:34:52,920
something I never would have guessed in
a million years would have come into circulation.

363
00:34:53,559 --> 00:34:58,400
So you never know, but we
will all keep a eye and ear

364
00:34:58,480 --> 00:35:01,800
out for any more Tom Conway scene
episodes, and we still do have a

365
00:35:01,880 --> 00:35:07,840
couple more to get to yet.
Other comments on Tom Conway, and this

366
00:35:08,079 --> 00:35:15,519
one from Paul who seconds the comments
from Lawrence and adds agreed, great voice

367
00:35:15,719 --> 00:35:22,119
and diction. Well, thanks so
much for the comments. Appreciate hearing from

368
00:35:22,159 --> 00:35:31,960
some Tom Conway fans and definitely a
very talented actor and we will, as

369
00:35:32,000 --> 00:35:36,440
I said, hear more from him
in the next couple of weeks. All

370
00:35:36,519 --> 00:35:38,760
right, Well, that will do
it for today. Remember our listeners support
