Slash Radio Detectives. All right,
well, before we do get started,

6
00:00:58.159 --> 00:01:02.759
I wanted to let you know that
I have a new book out. The

7
00:01:02.799 --> 00:01:08.760
title is Powerhouse Hard Bress. It's
a continuation of the series of superhero comedy

8
00:01:08.799 --> 00:01:15.000
novels have been writing and this one
is available on Amazon, Barnes and Noble

9
00:01:15.239 --> 00:01:19.560
dot com and also for the Kindle
and as a right now, Scott Wilcox,

10
00:01:19.719 --> 00:01:26.359
or audio book narrator, is hard
at work recording this and hopefully we'll

11
00:01:26.439 --> 00:01:33.560
have audiobook version out sometime in August, so I'm looking forward to that.

12
00:01:34.280 --> 00:01:41.400
And this week we have a couple
of events going on. We have on

13
00:01:42.560 --> 00:01:47.159
Friday for those of you in the
Boise, Idaho area, I'll be doing

14
00:01:47.200 --> 00:01:53.640
a book signing at the Hastings Store
at seventy five hundred West Fairview. There's

15
00:01:53.680 --> 00:01:59.319
a calfc Slash Long John Silver's out
front as well. As a Wells Farko

16
00:01:59.400 --> 00:02:02.760
Bank and I'll be there from four
to nine mountain time. Also, if

17
00:02:02.799 --> 00:02:08.400
you can't quite make the drive to
Boise, we have a virtual book launch

18
00:02:08.520 --> 00:02:13.680
we'll be going on on Wednesday,
so tomorrow, and we'll be there from

19
00:02:13.759 --> 00:02:17.560
six thirty to nine mountain time.
All right, Well, we're beginning a

20
00:02:17.719 --> 00:02:23.520
new radio series today. This one
is called Mister Moto. Now. I

21
00:02:23.719 --> 00:02:30.960
played a Mister Moto movie for this
month's Video Theater and one I think one

22
00:02:30.960 --> 00:02:42.159
of the better ones, mister Moto's
Last Warning. Really the Mister the Mister

23
00:02:42.280 --> 00:02:50.080
Mono radio series is an entirely different
incarnation. While the original Mister Moto was

24
00:02:51.000 --> 00:03:02.680
Japanese mister Iamoto, the featured character
in this series was Japanese American born in

25
00:03:02.680 --> 00:03:12.439
the United States. Series aired over
the NBC Radio network from May nineteen fifty

26
00:03:12.439 --> 00:03:22.159
one to October nineteen fifty one,
so kind of followed a similar length of

27
00:03:22.639 --> 00:03:30.879
airing as The Big Guy from a
year before. NBC Radio series with Detective

28
00:03:30.879 --> 00:03:36.199
Show starting in the nineteen fifties really
did not have a lot of luck.

29
00:03:37.000 --> 00:03:40.000
The big exception of that was very
Craig Confidential Investigator, which we played.

30
00:03:40.400 --> 00:03:45.840
So let's go ahead and take a
listen to today's episode A force called x

31
00:03:46.039 --> 00:03:51.199
O seven. And this sounds like
an audition recording, kind of minimal on

32
00:03:51.319 --> 00:03:58.800
music and effects. But let's go
ahead and take a listen. The night's

33
00:03:58.840 --> 00:04:08.919
going fourth called EXO seven drying Mister
Moto, Mister I A Moto. I

34
00:04:09.080 --> 00:04:12.400
stood there in a room in their
View Hospital in New York, beside the

35
00:04:12.400 --> 00:04:15.439
young doctor. We watched the patient
on the bed with a sort of son

36
00:04:15.680 --> 00:04:23.879
incredible horr. The woman's condition was
so fantastic as to defy all all reason.

37
00:04:24.879 --> 00:04:29.959
She had grown visibly smaller in the
back quarter hour. Her body was

38
00:04:30.920 --> 00:04:35.079
not that of a woman, but
of a child. The young doctor sixth

39
00:04:35.199 --> 00:04:40.279
were princed around the foot of the
iron hospital bed. Mister Moto, this

40
00:04:40.360 --> 00:04:43.839
is unbelievable. Yes, I can't
stand it. It's sickly. Yes,

41
00:04:43.920 --> 00:04:47.279
that's happened to him. What's called
this the thousand apology doctor. But this

42
00:04:47.439 --> 00:04:54.240
is a secret which must be kept
at all costs. The assignment on Exto

43
00:04:54.319 --> 00:04:58.920
seven started with a personal phone call
last Saturday. I had just completed a

44
00:04:59.000 --> 00:05:02.800
case in Carol for US intelligence and
had returned to New York for a rest

45
00:05:02.959 --> 00:05:08.839
and a holiday. I wanted nothing
so much as I wanted quiet. I

46
00:05:08.959 --> 00:05:12.680
was annoyed when my phone rang at
ten in the evening. I was already

47
00:05:12.720 --> 00:05:26.040
in debt. Hello Moto, Yes, moto is hard? Counton here?

48
00:05:26.279 --> 00:05:29.639
Why, profesforth Canton, I've been
in Europe and I've been meaning to call

49
00:05:29.680 --> 00:05:32.720
you ever since I returned. But
can I show you tonight? There's an

50
00:05:32.800 --> 00:05:39.920
entrance Central Park. There's an infant
into Central Park at Fifth Even You're ninetieth

51
00:05:39.959 --> 00:05:43.639
Street. Can you be there in
half an hour? You mean outside in

52
00:05:43.720 --> 00:05:46.439
this weather? Please? Modo.
I know what I'm doing, this is

53
00:05:46.480 --> 00:05:48.959
desperately. Then of course I'll meet
you anywhere. You say, since even

54
00:05:49.000 --> 00:05:54.199
you're ninetieth Street entry to the park
in half an hour? Can't you give

55
00:05:54.199 --> 00:06:03.319
me any idea of what? Hello? Hello? Who is there? Can

56
00:06:03.360 --> 00:06:12.120
make muddy water clear? But if
let alone, it will become clear of

57
00:06:12.199 --> 00:06:17.480
itself. Professor Howard Carlton was head
of the civic department of one of the

58
00:06:17.519 --> 00:06:23.519
greatest universities in the world. I
met him first in Hong Kong many years

59
00:06:23.519 --> 00:06:28.959
ago, and I think I can
say we each treasured each other's friendship.

60
00:06:30.000 --> 00:06:34.879
I took a cab to Fifth Avenue
and nightly street, driveling rain made murky

61
00:06:35.000 --> 00:06:45.519
globs of the street light at my
right, fetch the park manst it and

62
00:06:45.680 --> 00:06:55.480
so very dark. The occasional taxi
hurried by as if anxious to get away

63
00:06:55.480 --> 00:07:00.600
from the black wetness of the night. Suddenly, out of the mist I

64
00:07:00.759 --> 00:07:04.959
recognize Howard Autums last his body.
He was wearing a raincoat and his hat

65
00:07:05.120 --> 00:07:12.759
was pulled down over his face.
His walk suggested one thing. See,

66
00:07:13.720 --> 00:07:15.040
I say, Moto, this is
awfully decent of you, Howard? What

67
00:07:15.199 --> 00:07:18.519
is this all about? Why must
we eat outside in the setch of weather?

68
00:07:18.560 --> 00:07:24.120
Surely they must wait? But what
is it that may have been followed?

69
00:07:25.399 --> 00:07:28.800
Let's go out into the park a
bit. We can sit on one

70
00:07:28.839 --> 00:07:35.959
of the ventures. There. You
are a saying, aren't you yeah?

71
00:07:36.120 --> 00:07:43.399
Of what? Specifically? Being murdered? Murdered? Why? Who? Men

72
00:07:43.439 --> 00:07:48.560
who write meiling me back? Meaning
you quite successfully with what something I did?

73
00:07:48.600 --> 00:07:57.240
Once? Can we sit down here? I suppose you start at the

74
00:07:57.279 --> 00:08:05.279
beginning? Mother? What is it
I thought I saw someone? I'm afraid

75
00:08:05.279 --> 00:08:09.439
I'm in a complete funk. Have
you ever heard of the Michaels and men?

76
00:08:09.480 --> 00:08:13.839
The experiment? Never? Well?
As as you know, I'm not

77
00:08:13.959 --> 00:08:18.079
only ahead of the physics department at
the university, I'm also in charge of

78
00:08:18.120 --> 00:08:22.360
the Manhattan Atomical Research Foundation. Look. Some time ago, as you may

79
00:08:22.439 --> 00:08:26.879
read in the papers, there was
a twenty two hundred ton cosmotron competed at

80
00:08:26.879 --> 00:08:31.840
the Brookhaden National Laboratory, a two
billion volte attom snasher. It spews out

81
00:08:31.840 --> 00:08:37.480
a beam of hydrogen atoms traveling at
the speed of light. This beam is

82
00:08:37.480 --> 00:08:41.080
directed by a searchlight who were speaking
to the interior of heavier atoms. The

83
00:08:41.159 --> 00:08:46.759
cosmotronic Bookhaden is service say the climax
of men struggle to harness the power of

84
00:08:46.879 --> 00:08:52.159
matter. We are here perhaps to
discussif it I'm I'm trying to say that

85
00:08:52.200 --> 00:08:56.399
we've invented a weapon. Will my
assistant and I at the Foundation, Yes,

86
00:08:56.840 --> 00:09:03.320
an atomic weapon. The bed ladies
my assistant started working with a degenerate

87
00:09:03.399 --> 00:09:07.799
form of radium. Who was radium
some ten years ago. It was to

88
00:09:07.799 --> 00:09:11.639
be a chop with cancer. The
Atomic Energy Commission realized it had other possibilities.

89
00:09:13.080 --> 00:09:16.679
Only doctor Bedley I worked on the
final face off it. Now we've

90
00:09:16.679 --> 00:09:22.840
finished. Go on, Well,
the weapon it's very simple, it's portable,

91
00:09:22.960 --> 00:09:28.159
light and so Goodney It's like having
a thousandth part of an Eton bomb

92
00:09:28.200 --> 00:09:31.679
and a light bulb. Only George
Bedley and I are in possession of the

93
00:09:31.679 --> 00:09:39.240
complete plans. And no, I'm
being black needled for what. Twenty seven

94
00:09:39.320 --> 00:09:46.480
years ago, at Oxford University,
I joined the Communist Party. I see,

95
00:09:46.799 --> 00:09:50.879
in those days communism was rubber fashionable. I took the usual nouns one

96
00:09:50.960 --> 00:09:56.120
under bradgwated and and then there's one
must if one has an immaturity of ahh.

97
00:09:56.240 --> 00:09:58.960
I grew out of it. I
forgot it. I got into science.

98
00:10:00.360 --> 00:10:05.759
I also product something else what I
forgot to resign from the party officially,

99
00:10:07.039 --> 00:10:11.679
a man named Sir Give the Mincop
threatens move with exposure. I am

100
00:10:11.720 --> 00:10:13.960
either to turn over the secret of
Exel seven to him, meaning to rush

101
00:10:15.000 --> 00:10:18.799
up, or or the explored as
a member of the English Communist Party.

102
00:10:20.000 --> 00:10:22.879
And is there any choice, my
dear chap. Of course there's no choice.

103
00:10:24.399 --> 00:10:26.440
I told the link after Dows.
He liked that I was going to

104
00:10:26.480 --> 00:10:31.759
the FBI, and he's tried to
kill me three times from the last forty

105
00:10:31.759 --> 00:10:35.720
eight hours. I see, now
there's there's where you come in. I

106
00:10:35.799 --> 00:10:39.000
want to go to Washington. Exel
seven must be delpe with on the highest

107
00:10:39.080 --> 00:10:43.559
level your jobs to see that I
get to Washington alive. Nobody knows we

108
00:10:43.679 --> 00:10:48.159
met tonight. Get two tickets on
a plane to Washington tomorrow afternoon. I

109
00:10:48.200 --> 00:10:52.279
shall call you in the morning from
a pree station somewhere. And now for

110
00:10:52.559 --> 00:10:58.440
hive and six, giving a cigarette
is catholic? Yeah, thanks. Isn't

111
00:10:58.440 --> 00:11:03.679
there somewhere we can do this without
ruining your career? EXO seven is more

112
00:11:03.720 --> 00:11:09.120
important than a career, man or
anybody else's have your match. I had

113
00:11:09.159 --> 00:11:16.840
a lighter somewhere. Yes, the
surges, thanks Howard. How I got

114
00:11:16.000 --> 00:11:24.639
end put out that night. It's
just the first finger was exposed to EXO

115
00:11:24.720 --> 00:11:31.399
seven and an experiment I shall had
that amputated. The weapon is capable of

116
00:11:33.799 --> 00:11:37.600
that. I'm be a fellow,
That's what I'm telling you. EXO seven

117
00:11:37.639 --> 00:11:43.720
ex Eton bomb as obsolete as a
sailing ship. That's why oh I got

118
00:11:46.919 --> 00:11:52.240
from somewhere in the darkness of the
park. A bullet brought instant death to

119
00:11:52.399 --> 00:11:58.159
one of the most brilliant minds of
our generation. How it caught himself forward

120
00:11:58.279 --> 00:12:05.840
to the pavement. I took his
right hand in mind and felt the tiny,

121
00:12:05.960 --> 00:12:11.000
hard widdered four finger finger, not
of a man, but of a

122
00:12:11.159 --> 00:12:16.960
baby. My first impulse was to
call the police. Then I thought better.

123
00:12:18.919 --> 00:12:22.600
Nothing could bring back the life,
and there was too much at stake

124
00:12:22.679 --> 00:12:28.559
to risk publicity. I left my
friend unattended in death and hurried home to

125
00:12:28.679 --> 00:12:45.879
my apartment. This is mister motto
calling Intelligence two and I want private line

126
00:12:45.919 --> 00:12:50.159
eight two, five or four piece. Thank you Hello Captain eight. I

127
00:12:50.240 --> 00:12:54.320
had some model. Why are Washington
and get me everything on a man named

00:12:54.440 --> 00:13:00.720
Sergey Venenko? Like also do a
factult team check on a Jack George Bradley

129
00:13:00.879 --> 00:13:05.480

Fundition correct. I will be in your

and Valinkov was airmail from Washington last night,

133
00:13:24.120 --> 00:13:28.200
mister mor Thank you. Captain George
Bradley's file is negative. He was

134
00:13:28.279 --> 00:13:33.360
registered in finger pretty when he started
working with Professor Carpton. He's thirty eight

135
00:13:33.519 --> 00:13:37.600
PC and physics, author of several
papers on a treatment of cancer by radium

136
00:13:37.639 --> 00:13:41.159
and X rays. He's a death
eight one nineties seventy five three. I

137
00:13:41.279 --> 00:13:45.000
imagine he would be at home on
Sunday morning. Don't you want us to

140
00:13:52.960 --> 00:13:56.879
Okay, have it's your own way. Anything else for me to do?

141

147
00:14:39.399 --> 00:14:41.960
enough. I've given up on this
one. I am glad to see that

he is a communist? What is
well? You're a joke. I don't

151
00:14:58.080 --> 00:15:01.360
know. I don't believe it.
This believe the truth will not make it

152
00:15:01.440 --> 00:15:07.440
any less true. Doctor Blatty I
believe you have invented a weapon called EXO

153
00:15:07.600 --> 00:15:13.360
seven. Do you mean he told
you? Why? Is he out of

154
00:15:13.399 --> 00:15:16.559
his mind? Idea? That's a
bladley I am working for US intelligence.

155
00:15:16.799 --> 00:15:18.720
Seven is absolutely bit hard thickly.
I know that. Then? Why asked

156
00:15:18.720 --> 00:15:22.960
me? This is a weapon simply
the most deadly weapon man has ever found?

157
00:15:24.039 --> 00:15:26.799
And I hate it? Indeed?
Why because I hate war? I?

158
00:15:26.000 --> 00:15:31.720
Yes, quite so? Tell me
have you ever heard a man named

159
00:15:31.960 --> 00:15:39.240
Sergeylenko? No? Why he was
flatmailing Professor Calton? Why he is blackmailing

160
00:15:39.279 --> 00:15:43.039
Professor Calton? If you either meet
or get a letter from a man of

161
00:15:43.120 --> 00:15:46.879
this name, you will get in
touch with me at what certainly the Lenko

162
00:15:46.840 --> 00:15:50.200
remember it? Yes, I will
thank you so much for seeing well.

163
00:15:50.240 --> 00:15:56.799
I'm afraid it hasn't been a much
use, but you're welcome. Sometimes one

164
00:15:56.919 --> 00:16:02.320
allows oneself to do things purely because
they are good morning doc about it?

165
00:16:03.960 --> 00:16:08.159
The let god, the leg god
didn't come down now he's gone, Yes,

166
00:16:08.320 --> 00:16:15.480
and downstairs. Most of the conversation
I could hear, and it reassures

167
00:16:15.559 --> 00:16:18.519
me. I never met a communist
yet who didn't have a blind spot.

168
00:16:18.879 --> 00:16:21.480
That little man is as dangerous as
a kake a night or glistening. But

169
00:16:21.600 --> 00:16:26.360
George think, yeah, I'm sure
you know it's Carlton is dead? He

170
00:16:26.519 --> 00:16:29.480
said, was blackmailing Professor Carton?
He said, was not? Is he

171
00:16:29.600 --> 00:16:32.840
used the past ten? You're sure
Carton wasn't alone when you shot him?

172
00:16:32.840 --> 00:16:36.639
I paused. Then Motor was with
him to see was an impossibility. It

173
00:16:36.799 --> 00:16:40.080
was only since comstomly to figure if
I could shoot at all, we shouldn't

174
00:16:40.120 --> 00:16:41.720
have killed him. But Georgie,
he with his own work, told me,

175
00:16:41.799 --> 00:16:45.960
would report all little blackmails will be
a FBI could have done something,

176
00:16:45.120 --> 00:16:48.639
locked him up. Let's yes,
the plants for Resto seven are already on

177
00:16:48.759 --> 00:16:52.840
microfilm. Yeah, and have the
operation. Now this surgeon. Can you

178
00:16:52.960 --> 00:16:57.519
trust him? He's high in the
privacy that no recommendation, So are you,

179
00:16:57.679 --> 00:17:00.200
Georgie. I will not allow you
to so, George, are told

180
00:17:00.720 --> 00:17:04.160
you know why I'm doing this.
Join us to try to stop a war.

181
00:17:06.039 --> 00:17:07.559
Whether I'm right or wrong. You'll
do things my way or not at

182
00:17:07.599 --> 00:17:11.200
all. Of course, your gee, there is no need for the temper

183
00:17:11.279 --> 00:17:14.000
of the angle. Get your surgeon
to come to the house tonight if you

184
00:17:14.079 --> 00:17:17.000
can. Unless you get out of
America. In forty eight, hours,

185
00:17:17.039 --> 00:17:19.480
you won't get out at all.
What's this operation involved? It is of

186
00:17:19.559 --> 00:17:25.720
the most simplicity. The micro fun
plans are pleased in the several plastic capsule

187
00:17:26.079 --> 00:17:29.759
inside my body. The capsule is
secreted. There is no danger, but

188
00:17:29.880 --> 00:17:33.440
there is also none of the ridiculous
disaccustoms. One cannot, after all,

189
00:17:33.519 --> 00:17:37.440
declare an appendicitis. When will you
be able to travel in four days?

190
00:17:37.680 --> 00:17:41.039
Two days? No? Look,
the link of the American eagle may not

191
00:17:41.160 --> 00:17:44.279
be as bad tempered as the Russian
there, but if you ruffle it steads

192
00:17:44.319 --> 00:17:47.279
once too off and he'll claw your
guts out and throw them in your face.

193
00:17:47.759 --> 00:17:51.960
The eagles mad now, so don't
take any chances. It's got to

194
00:17:52.000 --> 00:17:55.400
be two days. Today is Sunday. Now on Tuesday night you'll take off

195
00:17:55.440 --> 00:17:57.880
the real once and real you can
make your own plans for getting to Paris

196
00:17:57.960 --> 00:18:00.799
and then to eat. For it
will be I will feeling the pain from

197
00:18:00.799 --> 00:18:04.599
the walking, will just be a
big brave communist, and you will manage.

198
00:18:06.440 --> 00:18:08.759
I'm going to give New York a
little demonstration of Expo seven a couple

199
00:18:08.759 --> 00:18:14.039
of hours after you take off.
You'll kill a few thousand people, but

200
00:18:14.119 --> 00:18:15.839
the rest will stop and think now, get that purgeon over here to open

201
00:18:15.920 --> 00:18:19.160
up your flat belly. Sometimes I
wonder, Georgie, if we are playing.

202
00:18:19.240 --> 00:18:23.200
Don't wonder anymore? When not?
Please, no hard word coming e

203
00:18:23.319 --> 00:18:33.079
the chat ship I made it myself
with. Why come in Tomoto? I

204
00:18:33.119 --> 00:18:37.000
didn't expect you back this morning.
I have just been to talk to Bradley's

205
00:18:37.000 --> 00:18:40.680
housecatting it did and the link of
a lot. Yeah, I just says

206
00:18:40.680 --> 00:18:48.960
to your less thank you. Alexisterday
Linco born eighteen ninety nine, Magnicocurt Crusher,

207
00:18:49.839 --> 00:18:59.559
f Russians married Gypsian. What actor
I should have known, Captain Jake.

208
00:18:59.720 --> 00:19:02.839
I want three men to God Badley's
house on Street twenty four hour the

209
00:19:02.920 --> 00:19:04.440
day beginning this moment, mind telling
me why. Let's say it is a

210
00:19:04.480 --> 00:19:08.000
suspicion of the audient of mine that
you were born brought up in San Francisco.

211
00:19:08.079 --> 00:19:11.200
You're as American as I am.
But don't try being Eastern mysterious.

212
00:19:11.279 --> 00:19:17.559
Not with me. The bloodness of
the oak is more to be admired than

213
00:19:17.599 --> 00:19:19.799
the sharpness of the sickle. Meaning
I'm down. No, no, my

214
00:19:19.920 --> 00:19:25.599
friend, not at all. I
want God and Bradley's house for two reasons.

215
00:19:25.839 --> 00:19:30.200
One I think he knows Carlton is
dead. I made a remark to

216
00:19:30.240 --> 00:19:34.559
the effect that Carlton was being blackmailed. Bradley picked me up on the tent

217
00:19:36.039 --> 00:19:41.680
is being blackmailed, he said,
since the Carlton murder has been kept absolutely

218
00:19:41.759 --> 00:19:45.799
secret, how would doctor Bradley know. Let's sex? What's the other eable

219
00:19:47.400 --> 00:19:52.720
schutty? Again? Please? Cabbage
soup? Cabbage soup. When cabbage soup

220
00:19:52.839 --> 00:19:59.240
is made with for turn, it
becomes shut. It is practically a national

221
00:19:59.400 --> 00:20:03.920
dish where that Lenkoff was born.
Magneto Gosk is famous for it, like

222
00:20:03.079 --> 00:20:08.240
a circu for hop dog. I
smell chutchy in doctor Bradley's house. I

223
00:20:08.400 --> 00:20:14.880
suspect that Sergea Lenkoff will be arriving
soon for luncheon. And if he does,

224
00:20:15.000 --> 00:20:18.559
I rest him on what are the
suspicion of murder? Anything else?

225
00:20:18.640 --> 00:20:22.720
Detain anyone entering or leaving the Bradley
house. Bring them down here for question,

226
00:20:22.920 --> 00:20:26.079
including Bradley. No, no,
let him go, and come as

227
00:20:26.160 --> 00:20:30.200
he pleases. Right that all,
you will be so kind Captain Gates as

228
00:20:30.240 --> 00:20:37.960
to report to me at my apartment
tomorrow at noon. Come in, yet

229
00:20:37.799 --> 00:20:45.440
the door is unlocked. Well here, I am right on the dot and

230
00:20:45.480 --> 00:20:51.480
noon sunctuality, Captain is the virtue
of the stung. Now what about this

231
00:20:51.559 --> 00:20:53.880
surgeon, Well, he went to
Bradley's hearts last night. He was in

232
00:20:53.960 --> 00:20:57.039
the almost two hours. We picked
him up when he left. He seems

233
00:20:57.039 --> 00:21:02.319
to be on the level. Bradley
has migraine headache. Indeed, the funny

234
00:21:02.400 --> 00:21:06.319
thing is the surgeon guy wants to
go to jail. Why I don't know.

235
00:21:07.119 --> 00:21:10.200
At first he refused to come down
for questioning. My man got a

236
00:21:10.240 --> 00:21:14.559
little insistent. The surgeon took a
swing at him, so we booked an

237
00:21:14.559 --> 00:21:17.799
off for assault and resisting a police
officer in the line of duty. He

238
00:21:17.920 --> 00:21:21.440
doesn't want bail, he says.
He arranged for bail Wednesday morning. Wednesday

239
00:21:21.519 --> 00:21:27.079
morning, Yeah, I wonder why
search me, Captain date a man who

240
00:21:27.119 --> 00:21:33.240
will not fight injustice. He's hiding
gookes could be badly. Went out this

241
00:21:33.359 --> 00:21:37.519
morning at eight o'clock, came back
in the quarter of eleven carrying a large

242
00:21:37.559 --> 00:21:38.960
fact. You did not lift him, he said, not to. You

243
00:21:40.039 --> 00:21:45.920
were right. Now, I must
do some stinking. I would almost trade

244
00:21:45.960 --> 00:21:52.119
the honor of my ancestors to know
what he's going on in Bladley's house at

245
00:21:52.200 --> 00:22:00.960
this moment, John, when he
was stub working on that see shot a

246
00:22:00.039 --> 00:22:03.799
blank on. Sometimes I think you
have the insanity, think what you're like.

247
00:22:04.200 --> 00:22:07.559
But why don't they know about the
count murder at the foundation? You

248
00:22:07.720 --> 00:22:11.279
go down this morning, you bring
home this, this, this machine of

249
00:22:11.440 --> 00:22:15.279
hell, and no one says,
say is nothing. I invented it?

250
00:22:15.640 --> 00:22:22.960
Remember there, read plug it in
and switch it up. When you stop.

251
00:22:23.839 --> 00:22:27.920
I have the agony, say will
never heal enough of travel Tomorrow night

252
00:22:29.240 --> 00:22:32.359
they want the seven steachers. I
tell you why, you will be all

253
00:22:32.480 --> 00:22:37.079
right? Nor crazy? Crazy?
No, no, I'm not. We'll

254
00:22:37.160 --> 00:22:40.839
kill several thousand people with this machine
tomorrow night, but I'm not crazy.

255
00:22:41.200 --> 00:22:44.160
I'll be shot. I like that
you did, maybe even link. But

256
00:22:44.279 --> 00:22:47.519
I'll teach the world a lesson.
It will it will never forget anyway.

257
00:22:47.599 --> 00:22:49.119
You don't need to worry. You'll
be on a plane halfway to reel.

258
00:22:52.880 --> 00:23:00.319
Who is it? Hey, let
me in quick. This case is crazy

259
00:23:00.559 --> 00:23:04.119
crazy. The linkoff came out of
Bradley's hoss an hour ago. He must

260
00:23:04.200 --> 00:23:07.519
have been there all the time.
I followed him to Laguardi, nabbed him

261
00:23:07.519 --> 00:23:11.279
on the Air France reservation, dead
he pulled a gun on me, and

262
00:23:11.319 --> 00:23:15.599
I thought him, he's thinking me
sick thinking of him. My sister done

263
00:23:15.680 --> 00:23:19.200
near Wood. He had some sort
of operation. We got an ambulance,

264
00:23:19.279 --> 00:23:22.119
came back to town of the East
River Drive. When we passed seventy fifth

265
00:23:22.160 --> 00:23:26.160
three where Bradley's hosses the linkoff went
nuts, started babbling about a machine.

266
00:23:26.240 --> 00:23:33.119
EXO something go on, go on? Ali died right why in the ambulance.

267
00:23:33.160 --> 00:23:37.119
He died of fighting. I'm a
food I am an idiot, son

268
00:23:37.200 --> 00:23:40.519
of a something. You will rid
me at once to buy this house.

269
00:23:40.559 --> 00:23:42.240
Listen, mister more no, no, I do will listen. EXO seven

270
00:23:42.279 --> 00:23:47.000
a day weapon, the deadliest weapon
man has a unknown it's the name of

271
00:23:47.079 --> 00:23:48.839
ten thousand heavens. Don't stand there
gaping at me. We haven't a moment

272
00:23:48.880 --> 00:23:56.720
to lose. This must go.
I will go in alone to Bradley's house.

273
00:23:56.039 --> 00:23:59.880
You, in the meantime, will
follow certain directions to the letter.

274
00:24:03.599 --> 00:24:07.680
Am I to understand with the motor
that you have deliberately walked into the mouth

275
00:24:07.720 --> 00:24:11.240
of the dragon. Yes? Why, because I know what you are going

276
00:24:11.319 --> 00:24:18.359
to do. Don't move. Exo
seven is rather flexible. It can be

277
00:24:18.480 --> 00:24:22.400
made as directional as a searchlight.
The messon beam is pointed straight at your

278
00:24:22.480 --> 00:24:26.839
body. All I have to do
is flick this switch, and to get

279
00:24:26.880 --> 00:24:30.079
out of the way you would have
to move with the speed of light.

280
00:24:30.440 --> 00:24:34.240
I have no intention of moving,
Doctor Pradick, you mystify me. Mister

281
00:24:34.319 --> 00:24:40.799
Morton, you ring my door bell? An announced with that inscrutable oriental calm

282
00:24:40.880 --> 00:24:44.039
that you want to watch the test. How did you know there was to

283
00:24:44.079 --> 00:24:47.079
be a test. If you don't
keep your hands on your knees where I

284
00:24:47.119 --> 00:24:51.359
can see them, I'll kill you. You don't seem to understand what this

285
00:24:51.599 --> 00:24:56.559
is. This is EXO seven,
small portable simple. This is the filament.

286
00:24:57.200 --> 00:25:03.480
Radium heavy hydrogen in the cathode is
in this tube here and then BEEP

287
00:25:03.599 --> 00:25:08.279
is very weak, but it can
split the hydrogen atom. Why do you

288
00:25:08.400 --> 00:25:12.759
keep looking at your watch? Are
the police waiting outside? Do you think

289
00:25:12.799 --> 00:25:17.119
they can rush in with guns and
stop me? I realize now that they

290
00:25:17.200 --> 00:25:22.240
cannot, and relax. But keep
your hands on your knees. The multiple

291
00:25:22.319 --> 00:25:29.119
tube is now pointing straight down through
missus Henley's apartment. It takes a moment

292
00:25:29.200 --> 00:25:37.880
to warm up exactly in my head, exactly in the name of heaven,

293
00:25:37.480 --> 00:25:42.039
mister Moto on a human beings prayed
with my invisible methon beam. The water

294
00:25:42.160 --> 00:25:47.119
and the body is broken up a
proton and the hydrogen atom is shot three

295
00:25:47.160 --> 00:25:51.240
of its nucleus. The water on
the body becomes arcrogen and hydrogen atom.

296
00:25:51.759 --> 00:25:55.480
You evaporate, you shrivel, you
dry up. You become a shriveled,

297
00:25:55.559 --> 00:26:00.160
hard, dry, little calcium doll
about three feet long. Hey, this

298
00:26:00.359 --> 00:26:04.119
way the dream of inventors for centuries. I will give it to America.

299
00:26:04.519 --> 00:26:10.400
The linkop has taken it to Russia
tonight as a lesson, I shall exterminate

300
00:26:10.440 --> 00:26:14.079
a few thousand people, everyone within
the radius of a mile, to be

301
00:26:14.160 --> 00:26:18.440
precise, and break them steals and
no protection. Twenty feet of lead is

302
00:26:18.480 --> 00:26:25.400
the only thing that will stop it. Poor missus Hanley, Honey, she

303
00:26:25.559 --> 00:26:30.279
sleeps directly under where I am standing. She was a rather nice woman.

304
00:26:30.680 --> 00:26:34.240
Fatty, I am one needs to
be brought home to us. Here for

305
00:26:34.359 --> 00:26:38.400
a few thousand die I have,
millions will be saved. I think Russia

306
00:26:38.440 --> 00:26:45.119
will be afraid to start anything too
sure was hot. Now I'm going to

307
00:26:45.200 --> 00:26:49.640
start moving it slowly from side to
side. You'd better stand over that corner.

308
00:26:52.119 --> 00:27:00.440
The light the PA. Somebody turn
up the PA. I must let

309
00:27:00.559 --> 00:27:06.119
you keep quite quite still, doctor
Bradley. Well, mis Simoto had wrapped

310
00:27:06.160 --> 00:27:10.960
it up. Bradley will be tried
for the murder of missus Hanley Andyll five.

311
00:27:11.480 --> 00:27:15.920
Just the same, Captain Lake.
He had quite an idea, an

312
00:27:15.000 --> 00:27:21.680
idea you frustrated by obeying my instructions
to have the Power Company cut off elect

313
00:27:21.880 --> 00:27:27.240
service to all of east side Manhattan. Bradley was nut no Captain Lake.

314
00:27:29.079 --> 00:27:34.960
He had an ideal, what perhaps
but of some merit, And he really

315
00:27:36.200 --> 00:27:40.480
didn't give the secret of EXO seven
to Russia thanks to us getting the link.

316
00:27:40.599 --> 00:27:45.960
No, Bradley couldn't really be a
traitor who only wanted us to believe

317
00:27:47.519 --> 00:27:52.720
Russia had it, hoping our fear
would make us more careful. I examined

318
00:27:52.759 --> 00:27:57.480
the micro film which the colon removed
from the link of Fundy, which was

319
00:27:59.640 --> 00:28:07.480
l post. It was completely useful. You have just heard the world's greatest

320
00:28:07.519 --> 00:28:14.599
international detective philosopher fer mister I A
Moto in a force called x O seven.

321
00:28:15.559 --> 00:28:18.359
James Monks started as mister Moto.
The script was written and directed by

322
00:28:18.440 --> 00:28:22.839
Harry W. Junkan others in the
cast where Peter Tapell, John Larkin,

323
00:28:23.000 --> 00:28:27.680
Gavin Gordon and Scott Tennyson. The
music was transcribe. This is Fred Collins

324
00:28:27.680 --> 00:28:32.799
speaking, and here was the preview
of next week's story. Is mister Moto,

325
00:28:33.119 --> 00:28:41.599
you see has written he who denounces
fame has no sorrow. Next week

326
00:28:42.400 --> 00:28:49.039
a story that proves the words of
the Sage, A story of fame and

327
00:28:49.359 --> 00:28:57.119
tragedy concerning a flight from Istanbul.
And now may I wish you a good

328
00:28:57.240 --> 00:29:11.559
night, blessed with super conserate welcome
back. A kind of odd episode.

329
00:29:12.039 --> 00:29:17.559
I have to admit that when I
first listened to this, I was very

330
00:29:17.759 --> 00:29:21.880
uncertain about playing mister Moto on the
show because it's borderline, you know,

331
00:29:22.000 --> 00:29:27.160
in terms of mystery detective value,
and then you have such an odd first

332
00:29:27.240 --> 00:29:30.880
case with it, you know,
almost a science fiction flair. But it

333
00:29:32.039 --> 00:29:41.039
definitely gives you some insight into some
of the real concerns that people faced.

334
00:29:42.880 --> 00:29:48.119
You know, they were worried about
all of these new weapons, all of

335
00:29:48.240 --> 00:29:53.359
these amazing ways we had invented to
kill each other over the years, and

336
00:29:53.640 --> 00:30:00.000
what the future might hold. In
some ways, this characterization and really reminded

337
00:30:00.079 --> 00:30:06.759
me a little bit more of Charlie
Chan than it did of Peter Laurey's Mister

338
00:30:06.880 --> 00:30:11.680
Moto. But despite the philosophical element, some of the later episodes don't quite

339
00:30:11.960 --> 00:30:21.240
have the don't quite have the same
sort of treatment. It becomes a little

340
00:30:21.319 --> 00:30:26.440
more subdued as the episodes go on. So I hope you enjoyed today's episode

341
00:30:26.480 --> 00:30:29.839
of Mister Moto. We'll be back
with another one next week. And now

342
00:30:29.920 --> 00:30:36.759
we have some listener comments and feedback. Randa comments that this is her first

343
00:30:36.839 --> 00:30:42.680
time with our radio station listening and
hope you enjoyed it. And I guess

344
00:30:42.799 --> 00:30:48.119
that that I'll do it for today. We will be back tomorrow we continue

345
00:30:49.200 --> 00:30:55.799
the Kronin Matter, and then we'll
be back next Tuesday with another episode of

346
00:30:55.920 --> 00:30:59.839
Mister Moto. In the meanwhile,
