our Patreon supporters. Well, now it's time for today's episode

27
00:02:16,319 --> 00:02:20,080
of Philip Marlowe. The original air date August fourth, nineteen

28
00:02:20,199 --> 00:02:24,120
fifty one, and the title is The long Way Home.

29
00:02:24,800 --> 00:02:27,840
Speaker 3: Get this and get it straight. I'm as a sucker's road,

30
00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:29,520
and those who travel it wind up in the gut

31
00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:32,080
of the prison of the grave. There's no other end,

32
00:02:32,719 --> 00:02:33,719
but they never learn.

33
00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:39,159
Speaker 4: From the pen of Raymond Chandler, outspending author of crime fiction,

34
00:02:39,360 --> 00:02:43,800
comes his most famous character in the Adventures of Philip

35
00:02:43,800 --> 00:02:57,719
marlow Now, with Gerald Moore starred as Philip Marlowe, we

36
00:02:57,759 --> 00:03:01,879
bring you tonight's exciting story, A long Way Home.

37
00:03:11,479 --> 00:03:13,680
Speaker 3: The valley floor gave off the kind of heat that

38
00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:17,840
ate into you stayed. I wondered why some eight hundred

39
00:03:17,879 --> 00:03:21,520
thousand people voluntarily made the San Fernando Valley their home.

40
00:03:22,599 --> 00:03:25,800
That was their problem, My problem at the moment was

41
00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:28,680
to make a right turn off Riverside Drive, and I

42
00:03:28,800 --> 00:03:32,280
did four or five blocks north. I saw the name

43
00:03:32,319 --> 00:03:35,759
on the redwood post by the driveway. Mister and missus

44
00:03:35,919 --> 00:03:36,520
enis Hopper.

45
00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:38,319
Speaker 5: Yeah, this was it.

46
00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:42,599
Speaker 3: I drove in the drive into the cool oasis, an

47
00:03:42,680 --> 00:03:47,360
orderly wilderness of pepper trees, palms, evergreens, and everything else

48
00:03:47,400 --> 00:03:51,120
I had ever seen grown in southern California. The house

49
00:03:51,120 --> 00:03:54,159
sat well back on the lot, very neat, also redwood

50
00:03:54,159 --> 00:03:57,159
to match the post by the driveway. I got out

51
00:03:57,159 --> 00:03:59,159
of the car and walked across the grass toward the

52
00:03:59,159 --> 00:04:02,439
slightly stooped you're clipping the heads on the far side

53
00:04:02,479 --> 00:04:12,759
of the lot. I didn't hear you coming here. I'm sorry.

54
00:04:12,800 --> 00:04:15,960
I hope I didn't frighten you. I'm Philip Marlow, mister Harper, Oh.

55
00:04:15,919 --> 00:04:17,480
Speaker 6: Yes, yes, indeed, mister Tomorrow.

56
00:04:17,560 --> 00:04:20,959
Speaker 3: I'm glad you're here here. I'll put up this chair.

57
00:04:21,839 --> 00:04:23,720
Speaker 6: It's all right, I've got it now.

58
00:04:24,680 --> 00:04:27,279
Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah, sit down, mister Tomorrow.

59
00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:30,199
Speaker 6: How about you, if you don't mind, I'll keep on

60
00:04:30,279 --> 00:04:33,720
clipping the heads here while we talk. I feel better

61
00:04:33,920 --> 00:04:37,800
doing something, you know. Oh sure we could go into

62
00:04:37,839 --> 00:04:42,560
the house. I guess I could rather whether it bothers

63
00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:45,360
me to be in there now. Yeah, I expect it does.

64
00:04:46,519 --> 00:04:50,920
All you've been gone, mister Harper since Monday morning, that

65
00:04:51,199 --> 00:04:54,160
nine o'clock I guess it was. She got the laundry

66
00:04:54,160 --> 00:04:56,199
together and said she was going to the laundry man.

67
00:04:57,800 --> 00:05:00,519
Speaker 3: It's the last time I saw her Monday, that days ago.

68
00:05:00,959 --> 00:05:05,519
Take the car. No, Amy doesn't drive. I offered to drive.

69
00:05:05,600 --> 00:05:08,720
Speaker 6: He wonder, MAT's about five blocks from here in that

70
00:05:08,759 --> 00:05:11,800
little community center on Riverside. You've probably passed it. Oh yeah,

71
00:05:12,040 --> 00:05:15,040
And she said no. She thought the walk would do

72
00:05:15,079 --> 00:05:15,439
her good.

73
00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:20,519
Speaker 3: And she hasn't called her anything since. Uh, no, no, nothing. Well,

74
00:05:20,959 --> 00:05:21,560
how about.

75
00:05:21,360 --> 00:05:24,800
Speaker 6: Friends relative, Well, I've been quiet around the neighborhood.

76
00:05:25,560 --> 00:05:27,720
Speaker 3: You see, we have lived here wrong tomorrow.

77
00:05:28,079 --> 00:05:31,079
Speaker 6: We're not really what you call well acquainted with anyone here.

78
00:05:31,279 --> 00:05:32,040
Speaker 3: You mean the valley.

79
00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:36,639
Speaker 6: Well, in California, you know, we're from New Jersey. Came

80
00:05:36,639 --> 00:05:39,920
out here right after the first of the year. Amy

81
00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:43,560
always wanted to live in California, and you know we

82
00:05:43,600 --> 00:05:44,040
moved out.

83
00:05:44,160 --> 00:05:46,959
Speaker 3: Yeah, but about those relatives, you didn't say, Well, well, yeah,

84
00:05:47,079 --> 00:05:48,360
I had none living.

85
00:05:49,279 --> 00:05:52,399
Speaker 6: Amy does have a cousin out here, cousin Beatrice.

86
00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:54,360
Speaker 3: And that's all I've ever heard of. Call Beatris. She

87
00:05:54,639 --> 00:05:57,360
lives in Burbank. I've never met her.

88
00:05:57,439 --> 00:06:00,279
Speaker 6: Seems like I've always been busy. When Amy's gone over there,

89
00:06:01,480 --> 00:06:05,079
Cousin Ray usually picks Amy up. That's cousin Beatrice.

90
00:06:05,800 --> 00:06:08,160
Speaker 3: What you call this? Sin? Samey's this parent? Oh?

91
00:06:08,240 --> 00:06:12,120
Speaker 6: Yes, yes, a number of times, but there's been no answer.

92
00:06:13,279 --> 00:06:18,920
That's odd too, How odd? Cousin Beatrice is an invalid?

93
00:06:18,959 --> 00:06:23,519
Amy says, that's why she's never come to call on us. Well,

94
00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:25,600
perhaps they were out when I called.

95
00:06:25,879 --> 00:06:28,680
Speaker 3: Maybe, So tell me, mister Harper, you and Amy have

96
00:06:28,759 --> 00:06:32,040
you been happy together? I mean, you haven't quarreled or anything.

97
00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:35,600
Speaker 6: Oh no, mister Morna, Amy and I have never raised

98
00:06:35,639 --> 00:06:36,839
our voices to one another.

99
00:06:37,759 --> 00:06:43,000
Speaker 3: We've been very happy. Yeah. Oh, there isn't much to

100
00:06:43,079 --> 00:06:45,600
go on. By the way, if you checked the hospital,

101
00:06:45,639 --> 00:06:46,759
you know, there could have been an accident.

102
00:06:47,040 --> 00:06:51,959
Speaker 6: I thought of that first. Yes, I called him, No,

103
00:06:51,959 --> 00:06:53,680
no one fitting Amy's description.

104
00:06:53,720 --> 00:06:55,560
Speaker 3: Well, that's a point about that description. You have a

105
00:06:55,639 --> 00:06:56,800
recent picture of your wife?

106
00:06:56,959 --> 00:07:00,879
Speaker 6: Oh yes, yes, of course. Would you come in the house, torow, I'll.

107
00:07:00,680 --> 00:07:02,480
Speaker 3: Get one for you, okay, sure.

108
00:07:05,040 --> 00:07:11,680
Speaker 6: Year, Amy drupted him. Mister Murrow flowers, big trees. All

109
00:07:11,839 --> 00:07:18,040
those plants you see. Amy came for them, wanted cultivated.

110
00:07:18,279 --> 00:07:21,439
This is her garden, mister Murrow. I'm just trying to

111
00:07:21,519 --> 00:07:23,079
keep it nice for her.

112
00:07:27,079 --> 00:07:30,519
Speaker 3: He turned finally, a slight, little gray man led the

113
00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:34,839
way into the house. I felt sorry for him, didn't

114
00:07:34,879 --> 00:07:38,120
take much the figure that his Amy was his whole life,

115
00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:41,839
and in his mild, gentle way, his heart was broken.

116
00:07:43,040 --> 00:07:45,639
Inside the house is neat and well kept. A Zenas

117
00:07:45,639 --> 00:07:49,279
hopper himself. I got the first real shock of the

118
00:07:49,360 --> 00:07:53,920
day because the Amy I'd pictured in my mind as

119
00:07:54,000 --> 00:07:57,120
Zenas spoke of her, was nothing.

120
00:07:56,759 --> 00:07:59,120
Speaker 7: At all like the portrait he handed me from the mantle.

121
00:08:00,199 --> 00:08:06,720
Speaker 3: She's beautiful, isn't she, mister Mourna, Yeah, yes she is. Yes,

122
00:08:07,519 --> 00:08:12,759
she's young, too much, much younger than I. Yeah much.

123
00:08:13,439 --> 00:08:19,279
I'm a very lucky man, mister Mona. Well about this picture?

124
00:08:19,519 --> 00:08:21,160
Do you have a smaller one when I can take

125
00:08:21,199 --> 00:08:21,439
with me?

126
00:08:21,800 --> 00:08:25,000
Speaker 6: Well, yes, one of these on the death should be

127
00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:25,920
about right side.

128
00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:29,240
Speaker 3: I should think I hadn't spotted at the gallery on

129
00:08:29,279 --> 00:08:32,600
the desk across the room Untilena started for you a

130
00:08:32,679 --> 00:08:34,720
quick count, and I came up with seven pictures of

131
00:08:34,720 --> 00:08:37,480
Amy carefully arranged along the top ledge of the desk,

132
00:08:38,399 --> 00:08:44,200
all different, all beautiful, sensational the better word. I think

133
00:08:45,200 --> 00:08:47,840
the tended one showed the hair to the ash, blonde,

134
00:08:48,279 --> 00:08:53,159
the eyes large and brown in the mouth. Oh, Lenus

135
00:08:53,200 --> 00:08:57,960
broke the spell. This was, mister, I believe it's Amy's favorite.

136
00:08:58,000 --> 00:09:02,519
Oh thanks, this a little fine? Yah? Want it back? Oh?

137
00:09:02,559 --> 00:09:05,720
Speaker 6: Sure, sure, you bet? Now then is there anything more

138
00:09:05,799 --> 00:09:07,360
on anything else that.

139
00:09:07,440 --> 00:09:11,600
Speaker 3: Might be helpful? Well, let's see. Oh yeah, that cousin Beatrice,

140
00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:14,919
cousin Ray, their address and phone and burbank huh. And

141
00:09:15,039 --> 00:09:16,759
if they have a last name, that would help.

142
00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:19,240
Speaker 6: I don't have the address, but I imagine it's in the

143
00:09:19,240 --> 00:09:22,559
book named Quinlan, Quinlan Ray, Quentlan Bourbon.

144
00:09:22,840 --> 00:09:25,639
Speaker 3: Okay. And by the way, you said, the laundromat your

145
00:09:25,639 --> 00:09:27,720
wife patronized is in the community.

146
00:09:27,240 --> 00:09:29,320
Speaker 6: Center on the River Center, on the north side of

147
00:09:29,320 --> 00:09:32,000
the street, just a few doors east where you turn.

148
00:09:31,919 --> 00:09:33,120
Speaker 3: To become a key. Right.

149
00:09:33,639 --> 00:09:40,360
Speaker 8: I'll be waiting, mister Morrow. If you find out anything anything,

150
00:09:40,679 --> 00:09:46,200
Oh sure, right away.

151
00:09:50,279 --> 00:09:53,440
Speaker 3: The little community had no name, but it had everything else,

152
00:09:54,240 --> 00:09:57,559
a series of one of each shops and services all

153
00:09:57,600 --> 00:10:01,200
the way from health foods to a branch bank. Well.

154
00:10:01,279 --> 00:10:03,600
I parked on the street in front of the laundromat

155
00:10:03,639 --> 00:10:07,240
and studied the picture of Amy Hopper again. Tried to

156
00:10:07,279 --> 00:10:10,919
figure her with a laundry bundle and couldn't. Tried to

157
00:10:10,919 --> 00:10:14,159
figure her with enis and decided to go back to

158
00:10:14,200 --> 00:10:19,159
the laundry bundle made more sense. I went inside. Never

159
00:10:19,240 --> 00:10:20,399
smell anything so clean?

160
00:10:25,120 --> 00:10:25,679
Speaker 6: Good morning?

161
00:10:26,519 --> 00:10:28,080
Speaker 3: Can I help you? Yeah, I'm trying to get a

162
00:10:28,080 --> 00:10:31,960
line on someone. And missus Hopper. Do you know missus Harper,

163
00:10:32,240 --> 00:10:35,159
missus Enis Hopper. Oh here, I look at this. She

164
00:10:35,159 --> 00:10:40,159
looks like this. Oh Amy, sure? Yeah, Well when's the

165
00:10:40,240 --> 00:10:41,200
last time you saw her?

166
00:10:41,919 --> 00:10:43,159
Speaker 6: Well, let's see.

167
00:10:43,879 --> 00:10:44,759
Speaker 3: They or so ago?

168
00:10:44,919 --> 00:10:51,279
Speaker 6: I guess let me check the bundles here that tell us?

169
00:10:51,360 --> 00:10:54,919
Oh yeah, here, here we are Monday. It was Monday morning.

170
00:10:55,000 --> 00:10:56,159
Speaker 3: I think, yeah, well what.

171
00:10:56,120 --> 00:10:59,000
Speaker 9: I'd like to put my daughter's double parked out in front?

172
00:10:59,000 --> 00:11:00,240
Speaker 6: Can I pick up my laundry?

173
00:11:00,600 --> 00:11:00,840
Speaker 7: You can?

174
00:11:00,960 --> 00:11:01,960
Speaker 3: Have you got the right ticket?

175
00:11:02,080 --> 00:11:02,879
Speaker 7: Oh yeah?

176
00:11:02,919 --> 00:11:03,080
Speaker 10: Here?

177
00:11:03,159 --> 00:11:04,960
Speaker 6: Do you banning?

178
00:11:05,879 --> 00:11:06,879
Speaker 3: I just washed?

179
00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:08,240
Speaker 6: Was banning? No ironing?

180
00:11:08,440 --> 00:11:11,840
Speaker 3: I just washed. Here we go.

181
00:11:13,159 --> 00:11:17,159
Speaker 6: That's sixty two cents.

182
00:11:17,159 --> 00:11:19,960
Speaker 9: Well for once I had the right change.

183
00:11:20,279 --> 00:11:22,399
Speaker 6: Thank you? Can I take it out for you?

184
00:11:22,799 --> 00:11:23,080
Speaker 3: Banning?

185
00:11:23,159 --> 00:11:23,360
Speaker 6: Well?

186
00:11:23,360 --> 00:11:26,080
Speaker 9: Thank you. No, no, no, I can manage. Oh and

187
00:11:26,360 --> 00:11:28,440
just thank you for letting me budgie.

188
00:11:28,720 --> 00:11:29,759
Speaker 3: Oh, thank nothing of it.

189
00:11:36,720 --> 00:11:39,720
Speaker 4: What do you mean you're trying to get a line

190
00:11:39,720 --> 00:11:40,440
on Amy.

191
00:11:40,759 --> 00:11:43,080
Speaker 3: Oh, well, just that anyone ever come in with her?

192
00:11:43,960 --> 00:11:45,720
Speaker 6: No, can't remember anyone.

193
00:11:45,799 --> 00:11:47,960
Speaker 3: Well can you remember if you noticed anything special about it?

194
00:11:48,000 --> 00:11:48,919
When she came in Monday?

195
00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:50,879
Speaker 6: Yeah?

196
00:11:51,080 --> 00:11:53,360
Speaker 7: What you got her picture?

197
00:11:54,240 --> 00:12:00,120
Speaker 3: Yeah? I mean besides that, No, she was just Amy.

198
00:12:00,720 --> 00:12:02,080
Speaker 6: You want to pick up her laundry.

199
00:12:02,679 --> 00:12:10,240
Speaker 3: I don't have her ticket. I was doing great, huh,

200
00:12:10,480 --> 00:12:12,240
Ines had told me, and he went to the laundry

201
00:12:12,279 --> 00:12:14,000
mat on Monday morning. And now I knew as much

202
00:12:14,000 --> 00:12:16,960
as he did. And I took a picture with me

203
00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:21,399
into all the transportation offices around bus, train, plane, car rental.

204
00:12:22,399 --> 00:12:24,320
Everyone liked the picture, but no one has sold her

205
00:12:24,360 --> 00:12:28,039
a ticket on anything a supermarket in the drug store

206
00:12:28,080 --> 00:12:32,120
where everybody is helpful. And then I remembered her green thumb.

207
00:12:32,639 --> 00:12:35,399
Speaker 6: Well, I must say I've seen her many times, many

208
00:12:35,440 --> 00:12:37,720
times with mister Harper, of course.

209
00:12:37,720 --> 00:12:39,320
Speaker 3: Well do you think you might have seen her Monday?

210
00:12:40,440 --> 00:12:43,320
Speaker 6: No, not, missus Harper.

211
00:12:43,360 --> 00:12:46,480
Speaker 3: I do believe mister Hopper was in Monday, though, seems

212
00:12:46,559 --> 00:12:52,519
to me it was about his nier. Yeah, well I

213
00:12:52,559 --> 00:12:53,320
really couldn't say.

214
00:12:53,559 --> 00:12:56,399
Speaker 6: I believe it was, he asked. Of course, it really

215
00:12:56,440 --> 00:12:57,399
doesn't matter too much.

216
00:12:57,519 --> 00:13:01,200
Speaker 3: They're the same family, you know, Oh, gens Nast streame

217
00:13:01,279 --> 00:13:03,240
family compositor.

218
00:13:03,399 --> 00:13:04,879
Speaker 6: You know that's the family name.

219
00:13:05,080 --> 00:13:06,600
Speaker 3: I'm impressed. But look, I want to tell you.

220
00:13:06,840 --> 00:13:10,080
Speaker 10: Can you imagine they used to be called star Wars

221
00:13:10,759 --> 00:13:11,639
star Warts?

222
00:13:11,639 --> 00:13:14,840
Speaker 3: What a neasty little name for a NaSTA. Have you

223
00:13:14,879 --> 00:13:18,519
got a Burbank phone directory? No, big part of a

224
00:13:18,600 --> 00:13:20,720
burbank phone directory.

225
00:13:21,799 --> 00:13:24,000
Speaker 6: I thought we were talking about the Hoppers.

226
00:13:24,200 --> 00:13:37,519
Speaker 7: I thought we were too star Warts.

227
00:13:42,639 --> 00:13:47,919
Speaker 3: Yeah, Ray quinnan. Oh, I'm Philip Marlow, investigating impossible disappearance

231
00:14:04,120 --> 00:14:05,960
to call here several times, no answer.

232
00:14:06,399 --> 00:14:08,840
Speaker 6: How long has Amy been missing since?

233
00:14:08,840 --> 00:14:11,320
Speaker 3: Monday morning? Put some laundry to the laundro, Matt, and

234
00:14:11,360 --> 00:14:14,200
that's all anybody knows. Have you seen her since then?

235
00:14:14,279 --> 00:14:15,000
Heard from her? No?

236
00:14:15,960 --> 00:14:20,000
Speaker 11: Sure happened. We're halfway expected to hear from Amy Monday too.

237
00:14:20,759 --> 00:14:22,320
Usually do but he didn't.

238
00:14:23,399 --> 00:14:25,159
Speaker 3: Well, how about your wife? Can I talk to her?

239
00:14:25,399 --> 00:14:26,600
Beatrice isn't here.

240
00:14:26,879 --> 00:14:29,159
Speaker 6: She I took her to the hospital this morning.

241
00:14:29,200 --> 00:14:30,960
Speaker 12: They're gonna operate later today.

242
00:14:31,080 --> 00:14:34,720
Speaker 3: Oh I hope it does the true? Yeah, so do we?

243
00:14:34,720 --> 00:14:37,600
Well that's right, Ena says she's nivalid. Yeah, that's right.

244
00:14:38,320 --> 00:14:40,440
Speaker 6: How about Amy? I that's all you know?

245
00:14:41,279 --> 00:14:43,440
Speaker 3: Just that she left for the London and got there.

246
00:14:43,519 --> 00:14:49,159
That's about it. It's crazy. Amy wouldn't just disappear, wouldn't she?

247
00:14:49,320 --> 00:14:53,519
Speaker 6: No, No, I don't think she would.

248
00:14:54,440 --> 00:14:54,879
Speaker 7: Yeah.

249
00:14:54,919 --> 00:14:57,759
Speaker 3: Well, I'm in the book, mister Quinlan Central directory. If

250
00:14:57,759 --> 00:14:59,480
you get any ideas, call me. Yeah.

251
00:14:59,559 --> 00:15:01,480
Speaker 6: Yeah.

252
00:15:01,559 --> 00:15:04,759
Speaker 3: Oh by the way, what are you happy to get

253
00:15:04,759 --> 00:15:16,759
her the hoppit? Yes? Where's I know? The late afternoon

254
00:15:16,840 --> 00:15:18,840
sun was just at eye level as I headed west

255
00:15:18,840 --> 00:15:23,519
again on Riverside Drive. Cousin Ray was a brown, solid man,

256
00:15:23,559 --> 00:15:27,600
not fat, but husky, not too tall five ten maybe

257
00:15:27,639 --> 00:15:32,240
it must be about thirty five or so. Yes, wasn't

258
00:15:32,240 --> 00:15:34,559
home when I got back to Amy's natural habitat. So

259
00:15:35,399 --> 00:15:37,799
on a hunch, nothing more, I checked with the next

260
00:15:37,799 --> 00:15:41,840
door neighbor, Missus Brownley her name was was spooning her

261
00:15:41,919 --> 00:15:45,399
yogurt straight and propelling her patio glider like she was

262
00:15:45,440 --> 00:15:48,519
closing in on the finish line of the Honolulu Yacht Races.

263
00:15:49,159 --> 00:15:50,679
Speaker 5: Well, I saw.

264
00:15:50,480 --> 00:15:53,200
Speaker 9: Her coming out of the laundromat and offered her ride home.

265
00:15:53,759 --> 00:15:55,080
Speaker 6: Money was just real warm.

266
00:15:55,120 --> 00:15:57,879
Speaker 3: You may remember poor Lulu. Yeah, yeah, she.

267
00:15:57,919 --> 00:15:59,960
Speaker 5: Might put it that way anyway.

268
00:16:00,120 --> 00:16:02,440
Speaker 9: I told her I was driving right after I picked

269
00:16:02,480 --> 00:16:02,799
up some.

270
00:16:02,799 --> 00:16:04,360
Speaker 6: Wheat Germans, some black strap.

271
00:16:04,200 --> 00:16:06,919
Speaker 9: Glasses, I'd been going home, and that she was welcome

272
00:16:06,960 --> 00:16:09,919
to ride with me. And she gave me that nice

273
00:16:09,960 --> 00:16:12,720
smile of hers and says, no, thanks, Miss Brownley.

274
00:16:12,919 --> 00:16:14,120
Speaker 6: The walk will do me good.

275
00:16:14,480 --> 00:16:15,960
Speaker 9: Now, just try a walk.

276
00:16:15,720 --> 00:16:18,200
Speaker 6: In the hot sun and do anyone any good beyond me.

277
00:16:18,840 --> 00:16:19,679
But I'm not.

278
00:16:19,759 --> 00:16:21,759
Speaker 10: One to push myself on other people.

279
00:16:22,080 --> 00:16:23,639
Speaker 7: And the ride was there, she could.

280
00:16:23,440 --> 00:16:24,159
Speaker 5: Take it or leave it.

281
00:16:24,240 --> 00:16:25,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, tell me, did you see her after that?

282
00:16:26,159 --> 00:16:28,919
Speaker 9: Yes, yes, I did, this time from across the street.

283
00:16:29,120 --> 00:16:31,960
But there's no mistaking her for anyone else, you know,

284
00:16:32,960 --> 00:16:34,679
there is well there she was.

285
00:16:34,639 --> 00:16:37,240
Speaker 3: Going into ply just a minute, just a minute plenty.

286
00:16:37,279 --> 00:16:40,600
Speaker 6: The camera shop, pliny brandstats place.

287
00:16:40,600 --> 00:16:42,360
Speaker 3: Focus, focus, out of focus.

288
00:16:42,639 --> 00:16:44,240
Speaker 6: That's what mister Browney.

289
00:16:43,879 --> 00:16:44,840
Speaker 4: Is going fliny.

290
00:16:45,559 --> 00:16:49,320
Speaker 3: But then they're in the lodge together, you know, Yeah,

291
00:16:49,600 --> 00:17:00,559
that makes all the difference. I really know if she

292
00:17:00,799 --> 00:17:01,120
was or not.

293
00:17:01,399 --> 00:17:02,600
Speaker 5: Just he Pline, he's not here.

294
00:17:03,360 --> 00:17:05,079
Speaker 9: He had to go into Hollywood for supplies.

295
00:17:05,759 --> 00:17:06,480
Speaker 3: I don't work.

296
00:17:06,480 --> 00:17:07,240
Speaker 13: Here's wife.

297
00:17:07,279 --> 00:17:09,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, but if missus Harper left some pictures here or

298
00:17:09,240 --> 00:17:11,079
picked him up to be a record of it, wouldn't there?

299
00:17:11,720 --> 00:17:15,160
Speaker 9: Yes, I suppose there would.

300
00:17:15,200 --> 00:17:17,519
Speaker 3: I just left the door open to keep cool.

301
00:17:17,599 --> 00:17:19,160
Speaker 9: We're really supposed to be close.

302
00:17:19,240 --> 00:17:23,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, I realized that. Well, I just thought, remember the lodge.

303
00:17:24,039 --> 00:17:26,759
You know, Pliny might be willing to Why didn't you

304
00:17:26,880 --> 00:17:30,359
say so? Well, left your emblem on your other suit?

305
00:17:30,400 --> 00:17:32,960
Speaker 9: I'll bet yeah, the full Piney does it all the time,

306
00:17:33,519 --> 00:17:35,759
you man, I'm in the aug Hilo.

307
00:17:36,880 --> 00:17:38,400
Speaker 6: Well, now let me have a.

308
00:17:38,279 --> 00:17:43,200
Speaker 3: Look here pictures Missus Harper.

309
00:17:44,880 --> 00:17:45,519
Speaker 13: Be here?

310
00:17:46,079 --> 00:17:52,640
Speaker 9: Isn't back here, Amy Harper? That's right there you are,

311
00:17:52,799 --> 00:18:04,160
mister Harper. That'll be seventy three stamps including text, seventy

312
00:18:04,200 --> 00:18:04,839
three cents.

313
00:18:04,880 --> 00:18:08,559
Speaker 3: Mister Harper. Oh yeah, Well, I want to tell you

314
00:18:08,680 --> 00:18:11,000
two things. I think missus Hopper would want to pick

315
00:18:11,039 --> 00:18:19,519
these up herself, and I'm not mister Hopper. I slowed

316
00:18:19,559 --> 00:18:21,200
to a walk around the corner. I got in my

317
00:18:21,279 --> 00:18:24,960
car and thought about what I'd seen a cozy selection

318
00:18:25,039 --> 00:18:28,160
of pictures taken at the beach of Amy, mostly but

319
00:18:28,240 --> 00:18:31,359
one or two of cousin Ray lifting weights yet and

320
00:18:31,400 --> 00:18:35,160
one of Amy and Ray together. Who took it Enus

321
00:18:35,319 --> 00:18:39,680
cousin Beatrice, I don't think so. It was almost dark

322
00:18:39,720 --> 00:18:41,960
now as I used the car and the Enus's driveway,

323
00:18:43,039 --> 00:18:45,839
and when I got there it was dark. The sky

324
00:18:45,920 --> 00:18:49,200
above still held the afterglow of early evening, but the

325
00:18:49,200 --> 00:18:51,799
web of compact trees and shrubs that surround at the

326
00:18:51,880 --> 00:18:56,160
Happer house made patches of blackness all around me. I

327
00:18:56,200 --> 00:18:57,720
got out of the car and I saw a light

328
00:18:57,799 --> 00:19:00,599
somewhere in the back of the house. Back there to

329
00:19:00,799 --> 00:19:04,240
a faint sound I couldn't distinguish. There was a sudden

330
00:19:04,279 --> 00:19:05,640
movement from the hedge behind.

331
00:19:07,319 --> 00:19:29,440
Speaker 5: Stay out with marlow.

332
00:19:23,000 --> 00:19:25,000

340
00:19:54,039 --> 00:19:56,359
the second act of Philip Marlowe and Tonight's.

341
00:19:55,960 --> 00:20:06,680
Speaker 3: Story A long way home. There was a shop, not

342
00:20:06,759 --> 00:20:09,240
a pain at the top of my spine, but the

343
00:20:09,279 --> 00:20:11,799
bulldozer who jumped me from behind wouldn't settle for that.

344
00:20:12,799 --> 00:20:14,960
My face mashed into the dew silk grass, and I

345
00:20:15,000 --> 00:20:17,440
inhaled a lungful of wet vigoro while someone with the

346
00:20:17,440 --> 00:20:21,279
strength of tin flailed away at my back. Why I

347
00:20:21,319 --> 00:20:23,279
wanted to turn over and take it head on, I'll

348
00:20:23,279 --> 00:20:27,400
never know. I kept trying to turn. I slithered instead,

349
00:20:27,480 --> 00:20:29,839
slid along the wet grass with advice on my back,

350
00:20:30,440 --> 00:20:32,319
advice with a voice that kept hounding me.

351
00:20:32,440 --> 00:20:33,759
Speaker 5: Tet out of it, tomorrow s.

352
00:20:35,880 --> 00:20:37,960
Speaker 3: Hopper, you get.

353
00:20:37,799 --> 00:20:41,400
Speaker 10: It, morw popper, Hopper off my property. Now go on,

354
00:20:41,519 --> 00:20:48,160
get over here, hey hopper, mister Morrow has left me.

355
00:20:49,200 --> 00:20:52,720
Speaker 6: Oh I don't understand, mister what happened?

356
00:20:55,039 --> 00:20:55,680
Speaker 3: Three guesses?

357
00:20:56,319 --> 00:20:58,079
Speaker 6: What do you mean you?

358
00:20:58,440 --> 00:21:01,160
Speaker 3: You better come into the house, mister Morning. I'll help you.

359
00:21:03,319 --> 00:21:05,880
It's loud enough for you to hear out back here. Blood.

360
00:21:06,440 --> 00:21:10,400
Speaker 6: Oh yes, I came running, didn't I come along?

361
00:21:10,480 --> 00:21:10,640
Speaker 3: Now?

362
00:21:11,119 --> 00:21:13,799
Speaker 14: I'll take care of you, mister Morrow. Someone beach at

363
00:21:13,839 --> 00:21:26,960
till Annis. You should feel better, should I.

364
00:21:28,640 --> 00:21:31,799
Speaker 3: Heynous? Like the beach?

365
00:21:32,519 --> 00:21:36,400
Speaker 6: Why all right, mister Tomorrow, I'm not much of a

366
00:21:36,559 --> 00:21:40,599
swimmer anymore. When Amy never came for the beach, so

367
00:21:41,000 --> 00:21:43,960
we never went? And why do you ask?

368
00:21:44,839 --> 00:21:45,240
Speaker 3: I don't know?

369
00:21:46,319 --> 00:21:50,240
Speaker 6: Why do you ask anything, mister Morrow. I know you've

370
00:21:50,279 --> 00:21:53,519
been through a round. I wouldn't blame you if you'd

371
00:21:53,599 --> 00:21:55,359
want to give up looking for Amy.

372
00:21:55,599 --> 00:21:55,839
Speaker 1: If you.

373
00:21:57,720 --> 00:22:05,640
Speaker 3: I don't give up anything. Well, so far the case

374
00:22:05,640 --> 00:22:07,279
I added up to a stiff back and I head

375
00:22:07,319 --> 00:22:09,839
wrapped in a tight band of steel with building hammer.

376
00:22:10,920 --> 00:22:13,039
A few quick blasts at the pint and the glove

377
00:22:13,039 --> 00:22:16,599
depop and help not at all. But something drove the car.

378
00:22:17,319 --> 00:22:19,319
The stop at the hospital in Burbank could have been

379
00:22:19,319 --> 00:22:23,000
for personal reasons. They attendant at the main flaw desk

380
00:22:23,039 --> 00:22:26,160
looked real surprise when I asked what flawed. Cousin Beatrice

381
00:22:26,319 --> 00:22:26,799
was on.

382
00:22:28,119 --> 00:22:29,160
Speaker 6: Nearly nine to thirty.

383
00:22:29,240 --> 00:22:31,480
Speaker 3: Busiting hours are over at eight to me, Oh well,

384
00:22:31,519 --> 00:22:33,960
I lost track of time. I guess Can you tell

385
00:22:34,000 --> 00:22:36,160
me why she is? Anyway? I'll come back tomorrow. What

386
00:22:36,240 --> 00:22:38,839
did you say? The name was Quinlan, Missus Ray or

387
00:22:39,000 --> 00:22:45,119
missus Beatrice could be out of one queen by.

388
00:22:48,599 --> 00:22:50,519
Speaker 6: No Quinlanlets be sure?

389
00:22:51,000 --> 00:22:55,319
Speaker 3: I just look? Are you sure? No? As a matter

390
00:22:55,359 --> 00:23:09,839
of fact, I'm not. Thanks for asking me. Ohmorrow, come in, yeah,

391
00:23:09,880 --> 00:23:14,039
I will you look all in? I'm fine. What hospital

392
00:23:14,079 --> 00:23:16,400
is your wife in Quentland? The one about three blocks

393
00:23:16,400 --> 00:23:18,960
from here, just up on Riverside. You made her up Quinland?

394
00:23:18,960 --> 00:23:21,240
You were Amy made her up? Amy never had a

395
00:23:21,359 --> 00:23:23,119
cousin Bittriss like you never had a wife of the

396
00:23:23,160 --> 00:23:29,359
same name. Well you know that much. You know where

397
00:23:29,400 --> 00:23:33,480
Amy is. No, I may get another psychic flash any

398
00:23:33,519 --> 00:23:34,839
minute now, like the one I got when you were

399
00:23:34,880 --> 00:23:36,400
unlacing my spine a while back.

400
00:23:36,400 --> 00:23:38,559
Speaker 11: You shouldn't have found out about those pictures. More than that,

401
00:23:38,559 --> 00:23:40,119
you shouldn't have going to tell us about him.

402
00:23:40,160 --> 00:23:41,039
Speaker 3: There's a lot you don't know.

403
00:23:43,359 --> 00:23:45,640
Speaker 6: Amy doesn't want to hurt the old guy.

404
00:23:46,200 --> 00:23:48,440
Speaker 3: You've been trying to figure out how to tell him.

405
00:23:49,160 --> 00:23:53,559
You got any leads on her and any real ones? Hey,

406
00:23:53,599 --> 00:23:57,039
wait a minute, you really don't know where she is.

407
00:23:58,400 --> 00:24:04,039
I knew i'd be with her. Tell me how'd you meet? It?

408
00:24:04,920 --> 00:24:07,440
Had a bar over on Riverside, near where she lives.

409
00:24:08,319 --> 00:24:11,119
Speaker 11: She'd already invented cousin Beatrice all by herself to give

410
00:24:11,160 --> 00:24:12,359
her some place to go.

411
00:24:14,119 --> 00:24:16,319
Speaker 6: We we liked it being together.

412
00:24:17,079 --> 00:24:20,039
Speaker 11: Got kind of brave about it after a while. Sometimes

413
00:24:20,079 --> 00:24:21,960
I can ride up to a door for the rest

414
00:24:21,960 --> 00:24:23,519
of the time. We have a regular corner where I

415
00:24:23,599 --> 00:24:24,079
pick her up.

416
00:24:24,240 --> 00:24:27,680
Speaker 3: This corner isn't near our house, not far. I was

417
00:24:27,680 --> 00:24:34,599
supposed to pick her up Monday, but she didn't show up. Yeah, hey,

418
00:24:34,640 --> 00:24:37,319
you know it's funny. I was gonna set the beach

419
00:24:37,359 --> 00:24:40,559
ahead flat when I came in all of a sudden,

420
00:24:40,599 --> 00:24:49,160
I don't feel like when I got back to the car,

421
00:24:49,200 --> 00:24:52,400
I thought my head would cave in every inch. May

422
00:24:52,480 --> 00:24:54,680
screamed with pain. And sometimes you got to give into

423
00:24:54,720 --> 00:24:57,799
these things. I tried for home, but I only made

424
00:24:57,839 --> 00:25:01,359
it to a motel on Riverside. I was out before

425
00:25:01,400 --> 00:25:11,119
the light was I found a barber shop in Black

426
00:25:11,119 --> 00:25:14,039
Coffee the next morning, and the community center near Hoppers.

427
00:25:14,759 --> 00:25:17,200
There was a thick, fuzzy ten o'clock when I reeled

428
00:25:17,240 --> 00:25:19,880
out out of the street and headed toward my car.

429
00:25:22,759 --> 00:25:26,599
Speaker 1: That's the one time, Hey, you there, Hey, wait a minute,

430
00:25:26,720 --> 00:25:29,720
me Yeah, Hey, you sure, honey.

431
00:25:29,759 --> 00:25:31,640
Speaker 3: I'm sure, all right? Well, what's the trouble I do

432
00:25:31,720 --> 00:25:32,799
something wrong with? Is planning?

433
00:25:33,160 --> 00:25:33,599
Speaker 7: You think so?

434
00:25:34,160 --> 00:25:37,039
Speaker 12: Helen Well posing as a large brother when you're not

435
00:25:37,079 --> 00:25:38,079
as pretty serious?

436
00:25:38,079 --> 00:25:40,079
Speaker 3: Mister, I don't like that. Well, I don't think much

437
00:25:40,119 --> 00:25:41,759
of it myself, now that I think of him. But

438
00:25:41,920 --> 00:25:42,519
we'll skip that.

439
00:25:42,799 --> 00:25:44,400
Speaker 12: What I want to know is what's to deal with

440
00:25:44,440 --> 00:25:47,920
those pictures of missus Harper's no deal? Why everybody's looking

441
00:25:47,960 --> 00:25:49,119
at him? Nobody's picking them up?

442
00:25:49,160 --> 00:25:50,880
Speaker 3: We're paying. Wait a minute, Wait a minute, wait a minute,

443
00:25:50,960 --> 00:25:52,359
do that slow? All right?

444
00:25:53,200 --> 00:25:56,680
Speaker 12: First, missus Harper comes in the monday, it was Monday,

445
00:25:56,759 --> 00:25:58,359
and they're not ready yet. She says she'll pick them

446
00:25:58,400 --> 00:25:59,119
up later that day.

447
00:25:59,240 --> 00:26:00,000
Speaker 3: She don't come back.

448
00:26:00,359 --> 00:26:02,599
Speaker 12: A guy does, though, he just looks at them, smiles

449
00:26:02,640 --> 00:26:03,680
and says she'll get them.

450
00:26:03,759 --> 00:26:05,519
Speaker 3: Who is he? You know? Oh? I don't know.

451
00:26:05,559 --> 00:26:09,519
Speaker 12: Only a young guy, brown hair, got a tan well Well.

452
00:26:09,559 --> 00:26:11,160
In about an hour or another guy.

453
00:26:10,960 --> 00:26:12,839
Speaker 3: Comes in and he looks but he don't buy.

454
00:26:13,079 --> 00:26:14,319
Speaker 12: Then last evening.

455
00:26:14,079 --> 00:26:17,000
Speaker 3: You wait a minute. That second guy plenty, he's older,

456
00:26:17,160 --> 00:26:18,599
small man, gray, about sixty.

457
00:26:18,799 --> 00:26:19,640
Speaker 5: Eh.

458
00:26:19,759 --> 00:26:25,160
Speaker 3: Now here's my problem. Who wants those pictures? Not your problem? Planny,

459
00:26:25,160 --> 00:26:35,680
old boy, it's mine. The house was open, so I

460
00:26:35,759 --> 00:26:39,240
walked in. Innes was out in the back, pouring something

461
00:26:39,240 --> 00:26:41,240
out of a sack onto a flower bed along the

462
00:26:41,279 --> 00:26:45,000
back fence and working it into the soil around the flowers.

463
00:26:46,160 --> 00:26:48,119
I looked around and found a bedroom that had to

464
00:26:48,119 --> 00:26:53,039
be Amy's. Everything was neat in order. I turned and

465
00:26:53,079 --> 00:26:55,839
started out of the room, and then and I saw

466
00:26:55,839 --> 00:26:58,000
it sticking out from under a cologne bottle on a

467
00:26:58,119 --> 00:27:02,319
dressing table. Picked it up, and as I turned to

468
00:27:02,359 --> 00:27:06,400
go out, three matched pieces of luggage pointed an accusing finger,

469
00:27:07,359 --> 00:27:09,240
and then I found my way back into the garden.

470
00:27:13,279 --> 00:27:18,039
Speaker 6: Hey, good morning, mister Mona. Have you found out anything?

471
00:27:19,119 --> 00:27:23,519
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think I have this laundry ticket iness. I

472
00:27:23,519 --> 00:27:24,599
found it in Amy's room.

473
00:27:25,119 --> 00:27:27,839
Speaker 6: Oh, why didn't you tell me the truth in the

474
00:27:27,839 --> 00:27:30,880
first place, Y, I don't know what you meant.

475
00:27:30,880 --> 00:27:32,880
Speaker 3: Amy was here after she left for the laundry. Matt.

476
00:27:32,880 --> 00:27:35,680
The ticket proves it. Well. You found out about cousin

477
00:27:35,759 --> 00:27:38,599
Ray and Genius. You looked at the pictures in the

478
00:27:38,599 --> 00:27:40,839
camera shop. Maybe it's suspected for a long time in

479
00:27:40,839 --> 00:27:43,440
this sensed it, so you picked her up on the

480
00:27:43,480 --> 00:27:46,000
corner instead of Ray and you came home. I had

481
00:27:46,000 --> 00:27:50,279
a big pet fight about Ray, didn't you, Yes, yes,

482
00:27:50,319 --> 00:27:53,880
we did it. I said some horrible things, mister Muraw, horrible.

483
00:27:55,319 --> 00:28:00,720
Are you sorry? You want to back right? Anything to

484
00:28:00,759 --> 00:28:06,359
have her back? Mister Moon, I love it, you know, yeah,

485
00:28:06,400 --> 00:28:11,519
I know? In this I looked through Amy's closet. It's

486
00:28:11,519 --> 00:28:14,119
pretty full of clothes. Her luggage's still there.

487
00:28:14,680 --> 00:28:19,599
Speaker 6: Yes, Amy has a lot of clothes. She wears him

488
00:28:19,599 --> 00:28:20,160
well too.

489
00:28:21,279 --> 00:28:26,640
Speaker 3: Amy didn't go very far in its No, the man

490
00:28:26,680 --> 00:28:29,720
in the garden shop says you're the gardener around here,

491
00:28:30,200 --> 00:28:30,680
not Amy?

492
00:28:31,839 --> 00:28:32,079
Speaker 5: Did he?

493
00:28:33,960 --> 00:28:38,640
Speaker 3: That sack of lime is almost empty? And firsty pounds

494
00:28:38,720 --> 00:28:40,119
