Speaker 2: to the terrace. Mister Trandom was bent over his morning paper,
Speaker 2: sipping grapefood juice. He looked up at me with the
Speaker 2: same scowl I'd seen on the front pages of newspapers
Speaker 2: very early.
Speaker 6: Why did the servant selector win here?
Speaker 4: Ay said?
Speaker 6: Now, I'm certainly not.

Speaker 2: Sometime the table and split to the floor, still holding
Speaker 2: his chin. An army of servants rushed out and tried
Speaker 2: to look like they knew something. I was obviously the
Speaker 2: major suspect, and they vied with each other in their
Speaker 2: attempt to explain me, but nobody bothered the call. One
Speaker 2: a hospital and two a policeman. Finally, one big guy
Speaker 2: obviously a bodyguard. Good at everybody but me off the
Speaker 2: terrace and sat me down.
Speaker 4: He's there, shouldn't do it now.

Speaker 2: Well, if it means your job, yeah, it does.
Speaker 4: Believe me, it does.
Speaker 2: I saw a wisp of blue smoke over there, that
Speaker 2: clump of bushes across.
Speaker 4: The lawn, and a man. They run away.
Speaker 2: No man, just smoke. The shutter of the man, just
Speaker 2: smoke to gleam with the gun, A thin whiff of
Speaker 2: blue smoke. This is look. You can make up the
Speaker 2: rest as you go along. Now, if you'll excuse me,
Speaker 2: I got a phone call on me. I think the
Speaker 2: police ought to know about this. When the sirens arrived,
Speaker 2: they examined the brush and found a few bent twigs
Speaker 2: among the straight ones. There's nothing to go on. They
Speaker 2: set about examining all the servants searching the house, but
Speaker 2: their efficiency got them nowhere. By the time they left,
Speaker 2: they had collected no information at all. The only thing
Speaker 2: they had succeeded in doing was to make missus Mabel
Speaker 2: trend them lock herself in her room for a good
Speaker 2: private cry. It was after the police left that I
Speaker 2: remembered the last word of mister Harold Transmon lylah hating
Speaker 2: unsolved mysteries as I do. I knocked quietly as Missus
Speaker 2: Transmon's bedroom door, instead of hopping on the next DC
Speaker 2: six to Hartfitt. Please, missus Trandam, I'd like to talk
Speaker 2: to you.
Speaker 8: I don't want to talk to anybody. Go away.
Speaker 2: I'd like to talk to you about Lilah. Who did
Speaker 2: you say? I'm Johnny Dalla, I'm a t what about Lilah?
Speaker 2: May I come in? Tell me?
Speaker 1: What about Lila?
Speaker 2: Well, that's just what I was about to ask you.
Speaker 2: You're one of the detectives, aren't you. No, No, I'm
Speaker 2: an insurance investigator.
Speaker 9: What did you hear about her?
Speaker 2: The last word your husband said was Lilah.
Speaker 10: Yeah, it would be that's all he talked about breakfast, lunch,
Speaker 10: and dinner or I got a steady diet of her.
Speaker 3: All right?
Speaker 10: What did he say about her?
Speaker 2: Nothing? He just said Lilah.
Speaker 10: I suppose his insurance money won't be paid now that.
Speaker 2: He was murdered, the fact that he was killed. Won't
Speaker 2: interfere with the payment, missus Randam. The way it looks now,
Speaker 2: you will get your money with very little.
Speaker 10: Trouble, because that's all he left me, mister, Me and
Speaker 10: the Jesse Frederick a rescue mission money. I've got a
Speaker 10: closet full of coats and so many dresses. I run
Speaker 10: out of hangars, and I've got shoes piled of the ceiling.

Speaker 10: than he was about it. He teas that one of
Speaker 10: the boys from his office took me wherever I wanted
Speaker 10: to go. He was real good to me.
Speaker 8: He picked me up in a cafe.
Speaker 10: Where I was working as a waitress. He picked me
Speaker 10: up and gave me all day.
Speaker 2: Still I hated him. Maybe I'd better go.
Speaker 10: No, no, don't god, I gotta talk to somebody.
Speaker 2: Durance er. How much was it? One million, one hundred
Speaker 2: and fifty thousand dollars?
Speaker 10: Pretty big tip for just a cup of coffee.
Speaker 2: Wouldn't he say he didn't have any friends?
Speaker 4: Did he?
Speaker 2: Nobody? They're not a friend in the world.
Speaker 10: You could call the city from one end to the
Speaker 10: other for somebody to say a nice word about him.
Speaker 10: The closer you lived with him, the more you hated him.
Speaker 2: It'll be pretty tough. I guess to find out who
Speaker 2: did it.
Speaker 10: It wasn't one person. It was a whole city, the
Speaker 10: whole world. Everybody got to give and said we got.
Speaker 2: To clean the rock by Kevin.
Speaker 10: Sorry, and they hired somebody and did it.
Speaker 2: Take it easy.
Speaker 10: Missus tramp, don't call me missus trandam Mabel Mabel Harriet mcgrandy.

Speaker 2: on her temple. Police investigated the bullet hole was the
Speaker 2: quick work of the thirty eight. They will let us

Speaker 9: Oh well, perhaps I could, Miss Dollar, Perhaps I could.
Speaker 9: Mister Donner, you just use all the hot water you
Speaker 9: want to.
Speaker 2: I found myself in the midst of a lot of
Speaker 2: confused men, men made even more helpless by belief in
Speaker 2: their own failure. I hung around the rest of the
Speaker 2: day listening to their stories. Tod evening, I found myself
Speaker 2: for a living and imaginative experience with a little white haired,
Speaker 2: stubble chin guy who had forgotten I was even around us.
Speaker 11: Kittison started going up in the morning. I watched it.
Speaker 11: I never took wise off that teeth. It was climbing
Speaker 11: like a bird street to heaven. Well, I'm telling you,
Speaker 11: I couldn't breath. I was so excited. And I turned
Speaker 11: to Thomas Lamont. He was as close to me as
Speaker 11: you are, you know. I turned and said, looks pretty good,
Speaker 11: hot Tom, and he smiled and said, yes, Ben, we're
Speaker 11: going to be all right. Yeah, yeah, two more points,
Speaker 11: two points more, my friend, and I wouldn't be standing
Speaker 11: out here.
Speaker 2: I'll tell you that didn't make it.
Speaker 4: Huh.
Speaker 11: Oh that word, I'll do it again someday. Man who's
Speaker 11: made it once can make it again. To say, I know, man,
Speaker 11: he was much worse off than I. He had less
Speaker 11: than nothing. He owned the world, and he came back
Speaker 11: and made that big misfortune on the whole exchange. Maybe
Speaker 11: you heard a corrector of this charity killed recently, Harold Randam.
Speaker 2: You knew him, no, Well, we were as close as twins.
Speaker 11: He gave me lots of tips on the market. Nice guy, huh,
Speaker 11: he was very nice. He was a very nice man. Ooh,
Speaker 11: he was gruff sometimes with kind a really good heart.
Speaker 11: And when he took up with that woman she was
Speaker 11: a director here too, they killed her too. You know
Speaker 11: you knew that, didn't get Yeah, yeah, well when they
Speaker 11: took up together, I knew she'd kill him.
Speaker 2: She didn't kill him.
Speaker 11: Well, the other way around it.
Speaker 2: No, it wasn't that way either. Well, you know, yeah,
Speaker 2: I always heard he wasn't very well liked.
Speaker 11: Ooh, he had lots of enemies. And you see that
Speaker 11: fellow over there, No, no, the one leaning against the
Speaker 11: wall was a brown sweater.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, he hated him.
Speaker 11: Oh oh, that was a real big thing. That hate
Speaker 11: was what's his name Sanderson, Bill Sanderson. What happened was
Speaker 11: years ago. He was partner for two of them, Bill
Speaker 11: Sanderson and Trandlor. Yep, Trandam did Sanderson out of his
Speaker 11: book reag business and sent him down to skid rule.
Speaker 2: I guess Sanderson was only one of many.
Speaker 11: Oh, sure he had his enemies, trand them did, but
Speaker 11: Sanderson he was one who introduced me to Trandum. You know,
Speaker 11: Sanderson hated him worse than anybody hated that woman of
Speaker 11: his tool La whatever her name was. Well, that's interesting, man,
Speaker 11: fortun I think, but I got stories that would make
Speaker 11: your hair curl. I'll tell him to you over a
Speaker 11: drink sometime, huh.
Speaker 2: I had noticed Santason watching me out of the corner
Speaker 2: of his eye. He was a big man of indeterminate age,
Speaker 2: rolling a toothpick around in his mouth. I walked at
Speaker 2: the cafe down the street, had a bite dat and
Speaker 2: came back to the mission. A crowd was gathered in
Speaker 2: one corner, talking excitedly. I moved through to the front
Speaker 2: row and looked down. There was little Ben lying dead
Speaker 2: on the floor. I moved back through the crowd and
Speaker 2: right into Bill Sanderson Dalent.
Speaker 3: Maybe you better come along with me.
Speaker 2: The sliver of shining metal in his hand convinced me
Speaker 2: to come along with him. There didn't seem to be
Speaker 2: a great deal of choice. He stopped me in front
Speaker 2: of a door three buildings down, opened it, shoved me in,
Speaker 2: and closed it again. Inside it was not quite pitch blank.
Speaker 3: I'm glad to meet you. Any friend at FANDOMS is
Speaker 3: a friend of mine.

Speaker 2: I don't know how many times Santison tried to use
Speaker 2: his knife. Perhaps he was getting too big a kick
Speaker 2: out of wearing me down to use it at all.
Speaker 2: Then I was able to maneuver him around with his
Speaker 2: back against the light from the street. I grabbed his
Speaker 2: arm and smacked his fist against the walls for the night,
Speaker 2: And when I dropped to the floor, I went about
Speaker 2: my work with a new z. You get picked on
Speaker 2: the wrong guy. There come on, get up, okay, okay,

Speaker 4: Why what do I do?
Speaker 2: A young lady and a killer are about to embark
Speaker 2: for South America and you asked what you did? Here
Speaker 2: here's your tense spot. Try the one a head. I
Speaker 2: ran down the stairs, brushed aside the butter, and opened
Speaker 2: the front door, just in time to see Mabel's car
Speaker 2: pull out of the garage and grind over the gravels
Speaker 2: of the gate. Through the rear window, I saw her
Speaker 2: suitcases piled high in the backseat. I rushed back into
Speaker 2: the house and grabbed the phone. Kelly, Dad, Johnny Dolla. Lieutenant, listen,
Speaker 2: Mabel's Fryan and just left here in a big hurries.
Speaker 2: You had aeroplane tickets for Rio. The plane leaves it.
Speaker 2: He's picking up Bill Sanderson first somewhere. Don't tell me.
Speaker 12: She's in on her husband's death very much.

Speaker 2: try another means of transportation. Better cover all the exits.
Speaker 2: It work down her. I'll get right on it, say, lieutenant.
Speaker 2: There are too many Camfairs. This is on my expense account.
Speaker 2: You haven't got a car, you can spare your thing.
Speaker 2: I'll send one on nine right over. He sent one
Speaker 2: on nine right over. We got to International Airport in
Speaker 2: time to check the passenger list. Sure enough, there was
Speaker 2: an a enabled trend, and we waited till departure time.
Speaker 2: And I felt a little like Drew Pearson must when
Speaker 2: his predictions come true.
Speaker 12: He didn't show dell him. I've better check with headquarters
Speaker 12: to see if she's been reported at.
Speaker 2: The railway stations of the bus people's smartest things she
Speaker 2: could do now would be to pick up Standerson and
Speaker 2: head for the border Byodo's.
Speaker 12: I've already seen on the roadblock. Notice, well, your job
Speaker 12: is done to him.
Speaker 2: Why risk your nick This is one I don't want
Speaker 2: to just read about. And then there's the matter of
Speaker 2: a million dollar policy. Before we're through, we might have
Speaker 2: to dig up the second beneficiary. Lieutenant Ncell checked with headquarters.
Speaker 2: They had not shown at any departure points. The roadblock
Speaker 2: had been set up on the coast route just out
Speaker 2: of Capistrano where one oh one an insult and at
Speaker 2: meat the only highway south, everybody was getting a three
Speaker 2: time killer, just the sort of attention he deserved. It
Speaker 2: was getting dark. The Lieutenant and I sat in his
Speaker 2: car watching the roadblock. Okay, God, this could be for nothing.
Speaker 12: Maybe they've decended to stay home.
Speaker 2: No, that's not for Mabel. She's pretty wrestlers likes to
Speaker 2: keep moving. I think they'll make a try at a
Speaker 2: border tonight.
Speaker 12: Hey, look up there, somebody's pulling on a line.
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's turning off onto the shoulder. You're going to
Speaker 2: try to cross the block.

Speaker 2: We weren't even sure it was Sanderson and Mabel. Might
Speaker 2: have been a couple of rum smugglers for all we knew.
Speaker 2: Whoever it was paid no attention to ours siren. But
Speaker 2: we pulled closer, hugging the curves by using the whole road.
Speaker 2: If you use that.
Speaker 12: Rifle down right, there goes the tire.
Speaker 2: They're under control. Is that the car? Hah, that's it.
