12
00:00:54,799 --> 00:00:57,399
here is the episode Windfall.

13
00:01:00,119 --> 00:01:04,040
Speaker 2: Willing to undertake a dangerous mission behind enemy lines, knowing

14
00:01:04,120 --> 00:01:13,840
that you may never return alive. What you have just

15
00:01:13,959 --> 00:01:17,040
heard is the question asked during the War of agents

16
00:01:17,040 --> 00:01:21,959
of the OSS. Ordinary citizens to this question answered yes.

17
00:01:23,359 --> 00:01:47,040
This is Cloak and Dagger, black warfare, espionage, international intrigue.

18
00:01:47,640 --> 00:01:52,599
These are the weapons of the OSS. In today's adventure, Windfall,

19
00:01:52,959 --> 00:01:56,159
the part of McAllister is played by Lestra may Jan

20
00:01:56,319 --> 00:01:59,400
Minor plays Jen and Mike Slade is played by Bill Quinn.

21
00:02:00,159 --> 00:02:03,319
The story is suggested by actual incidents recorded in the

22
00:02:03,359 --> 00:02:07,359
Washington files of the Office of Strategic Services, a story

23
00:02:07,400 --> 00:02:18,800
that can now be told. We had three new guests

24
00:02:18,800 --> 00:02:21,479
at the lodge at Noirmont that day, and the first

25
00:02:21,520 --> 00:02:23,479
one blew in just after lunch, and I recognize him

26
00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:26,520
right away, at least I thought I did. I didn't

27
00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:27,919
know who he was, you understand, but I thought I

28
00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:30,599
knew what he was. A fellow American, for one thing,

29
00:02:30,639 --> 00:02:33,719
and probably a member of the diplomatic mission at Baron.

30
00:02:35,039 --> 00:02:37,240
I wish now that that was all he had been.

31
00:02:37,879 --> 00:02:40,680
Speaker 3: You have a reservation for me the name Monsieur Heywood,

32
00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:41,719
Frederick Heywood.

33
00:02:41,800 --> 00:02:44,719
Speaker 4: At one moment, Monsieur, I.

34
00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:46,520
Speaker 2: Made a mental note of that name as I shuffled

35
00:02:46,520 --> 00:02:49,520
my cards and dealt myself another hand of solitaire. I

36
00:02:49,599 --> 00:02:51,159
was sitting in the lobby close to the desk, and

37
00:02:51,199 --> 00:02:54,199
not by accident, either, I made my business to catch

38
00:02:54,240 --> 00:02:55,759
the names of new arrivals.

39
00:02:56,080 --> 00:02:56,599
Speaker 3: If you know a.

40
00:02:56,560 --> 00:02:59,759
Speaker 2: Man's name, he's usually more willing to sit down at

41
00:02:59,759 --> 00:03:02,199
the car table with you. And if the guests at

42
00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:06,599
Noirmont didn't play cards with me, how could I eat well?

43
00:03:06,639 --> 00:03:09,639
Speaker 3: Clerk, do you have the reservation or not. Yes, hit

44
00:03:09,759 --> 00:03:10,240
is monsieur.

45
00:03:10,520 --> 00:03:13,080
Speaker 4: It was fund in yesterday from ber Your room is

46
00:03:13,080 --> 00:03:13,719
being prepared.

47
00:03:13,759 --> 00:03:15,560
Speaker 3: Nowson, let me know what it's ready. I'll be in

48
00:03:15,560 --> 00:03:18,439
the bar. I went to work.

49
00:03:18,479 --> 00:03:21,120
Speaker 2: Then I followed him into the bar. I was sure

50
00:03:21,120 --> 00:03:23,560
by then that i'd size him upright. A secretary or

51
00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:25,319
a file clerk could come to the lodge to ski

52
00:03:25,360 --> 00:03:29,360
and relax. He was right for picking, I figured. I

53
00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:31,120
found him at a table by the window, looking out

54
00:03:31,159 --> 00:03:33,800
over the mountains of snow and ice and down into

55
00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:38,960
the green Valley where Switzerland became France. Not see occupied France.

56
00:03:41,120 --> 00:03:44,560
Welcome to normal, mister Heywood. Eh, who are you name?

57
00:03:44,639 --> 00:03:45,000
Speaker 3: Slade?

58
00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:48,759
Speaker 2: Mike Slade? I heard you ask for your reservation. I

59
00:03:48,759 --> 00:03:52,080
couldn't help overhearing your name. You're an American, that's right.

60
00:03:53,120 --> 00:03:57,240
You mind if I said, now, thanks up here to

61
00:03:57,240 --> 00:04:00,960
do a little skiing. I suppose perhaps planning to stay long?

62
00:04:01,479 --> 00:04:05,240
Speaker 3: That depends. Oh what a number of things, none of

63
00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:06,319
which are your business.

64
00:04:07,520 --> 00:04:09,840
Speaker 2: Relax, mister Heywood. You don't have to be afraid to

65
00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:12,599
talk to me. I'm not on the enemy's side. In fact,

66
00:04:13,520 --> 00:04:16,879
I'm not on anybody's side. I'm just a plain ordinary

67
00:04:16,879 --> 00:04:17,639
private citizen.

68
00:04:17,759 --> 00:04:26,439
Speaker 3: Oh and what are you doing in Switzerland, he.

69
00:04:26,519 --> 00:04:29,720
Speaker 2: Asked, So I told him the whole sad story. How

70
00:04:29,720 --> 00:04:31,800
I shipped out of San Francisco when I was fifteen,

71
00:04:31,879 --> 00:04:34,560
how I jumped ship in Shanghai, How I'd spent the

72
00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:37,279
next twenty five years gambling my way around the world

73
00:04:38,079 --> 00:04:41,079
till I hit it big, knocking over a roulette wheel

74
00:04:41,120 --> 00:04:42,480
in Paris for a million francs.

75
00:04:42,959 --> 00:04:45,240
Speaker 3: So you're up here blowing your million francs.

76
00:04:45,240 --> 00:04:49,160
Speaker 2: I slid, No, not exactly, didn't last long enough to blow.

77
00:04:49,959 --> 00:04:52,360
A week after I won it, the Germans marched into Paris,

78
00:04:52,360 --> 00:04:55,160
and my money wasn't worth a thin diet. I got

79
00:04:55,199 --> 00:04:58,079
away and landed up here at Walmart. And I'm waiting

80
00:04:58,079 --> 00:05:01,560
ever since, waiting for what why, for someone to win

81
00:05:01,639 --> 00:05:02,000
this war?

82
00:05:02,040 --> 00:05:04,720
Speaker 3: Of course, someone anyone, you mean.

83
00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:08,000
Speaker 2: Oh, I'm not too particular, mister hay Wooden, Like I say,

84
00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:11,199
I don't play sides. I'm what they call a neutral,

85
00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:14,720
I guess, a neutral American. Well, it's been a long

86
00:05:14,759 --> 00:05:17,439
time since I was in America. I just want them

87
00:05:17,439 --> 00:05:19,879
to get the war over with somehow, so Jen and

88
00:05:19,959 --> 00:05:22,600
I can get out of here. Jen my girl wins

89
00:05:22,639 --> 00:05:25,439
to hey, which she's one of the skiing instructors here

90
00:05:25,439 --> 00:05:27,879
at the lodge, and when I go, she's promised to

91
00:05:27,879 --> 00:05:28,279
go with me.

92
00:05:28,560 --> 00:05:31,519
Speaker 3: I see, I'll go see if I rule ready? Oh

93
00:05:31,519 --> 00:05:32,720
wait a minute, how about another drink?

94
00:05:32,759 --> 00:05:32,879
Speaker 2: Well?

95
00:05:32,959 --> 00:05:33,199
Speaker 3: Thanks?

96
00:05:33,360 --> 00:05:35,360
Speaker 2: Well, look, if you're not doing anything tonight and you're

97
00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:38,480
like a little game of stud as got away as

98
00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:40,839
any to pass the evening up here. Maybe, But I'm

99
00:05:40,879 --> 00:05:43,759
rather particular about the kind of men I gamble with, Slade,

100
00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:53,439
especially the kind of Americans. Oh well, I figured some

101
00:05:53,480 --> 00:05:57,519
guys couldn't help being patriots. Me I had other things

102
00:05:57,519 --> 00:06:00,160
to worry about, not enough money in my gene to

103
00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:01,519
pay for my room at the end of the week,

104
00:06:01,519 --> 00:06:02,839
and no stud game in sight.

105
00:06:03,399 --> 00:06:06,360
Speaker 3: Hello, Mike, Jen, how are your babies?

106
00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:08,480
Speaker 5: Mike came into the bar a few minutes ago, but

107
00:06:08,560 --> 00:06:10,800
you were talking to somebody here who was.

108
00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:14,079
Speaker 3: A guy named Heywood, an American just checked in from.

109
00:06:13,959 --> 00:06:17,959
Speaker 5: Bern from Bay with Mike. He couldn't have what do

110
00:06:18,040 --> 00:06:20,000
you mean you left that heavy snow last night? He

111
00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:22,959
couldn't have come by automobile. And you know perfectly well

112
00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:26,000
the train from Beern doesn't arrive for another three hours.

113
00:06:26,279 --> 00:06:29,279
Speaker 3: Hey, I forgot about that, And how the devil did

114
00:06:29,279 --> 00:06:29,720
he get here?

115
00:06:29,959 --> 00:06:32,199
Speaker 6: There's only one way. You must have.

116
00:06:32,079 --> 00:06:33,759
Speaker 3: Walk walked all away from Bern.

117
00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:37,680
Speaker 5: He walked from down there in the valley, he came

118
00:06:37,720 --> 00:06:39,120
across the French border.

119
00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:43,040
Speaker 2: Maybe you're forgetting there's a war on There aren't any

120
00:06:43,079 --> 00:06:44,680
Americans touring France these days.

121
00:06:44,800 --> 00:06:47,839
Speaker 5: No, but there are some fighting for France, fighting with

122
00:06:47,839 --> 00:06:48,639
the French Marquis.

123
00:06:48,839 --> 00:06:52,160
Speaker 6: I don't know what cha an intelligence agents.

124
00:06:51,639 --> 00:06:55,519
Speaker 2: Mike, Hey, wait a minute, Maybe you've got something there

125
00:06:56,480 --> 00:06:58,800
that would explain why Heywood brush me off that way.

126
00:07:00,160 --> 00:07:02,560
He must be one of those OSS guys we heard about.

127
00:07:02,600 --> 00:07:10,519
It was the only answer. I didn't think much of it.

128
00:07:11,360 --> 00:07:14,079
I figured an OSS agent just out of occupied France

129
00:07:14,759 --> 00:07:16,759
wouldn't have enough money to finance a game of stud

130
00:07:16,920 --> 00:07:19,480
So I went looking for someone who would.

131
00:07:20,079 --> 00:07:23,759
Speaker 7: There's two ones, clerk, one for Dot, one for myself.

132
00:07:26,639 --> 00:07:28,319
Speaker 2: Crowds were crowds, and you didn't have to be a

133
00:07:28,319 --> 00:07:30,800
patriot like Hey would not to like them. But I

134
00:07:30,839 --> 00:07:32,439
figured that these two guys at the desk were a

135
00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:33,879
couple of jokers on a holiday.

136
00:07:34,759 --> 00:07:35,519
Speaker 3: They'd be well.

137
00:07:35,360 --> 00:07:39,959
Speaker 2: Healedous, ridiculous, welcome to no gentlemen.

138
00:07:40,480 --> 00:07:43,800
Speaker 3: The clerk, what about those ones? I don't believe I

139
00:07:43,920 --> 00:07:46,519
quite caught your names. Gentlemen, if you'll please my friend

140
00:07:46,560 --> 00:07:48,759
dear trying to get accommodation, I am sorry.

141
00:07:49,360 --> 00:07:52,000
Speaker 4: All I can give you and here you and here Vierstadt.

142
00:07:51,639 --> 00:07:54,199
Speaker 3: Is a double room. There are no single ones, No, sir.

143
00:07:54,279 --> 00:07:56,680
Speaker 4: The American who arrived today took the last one.

144
00:07:56,800 --> 00:07:59,920
Speaker 3: Oh an America and the life.

145
00:08:00,720 --> 00:08:03,519
Speaker 2: I'm an American too, slaves. My name Mike Slade. But

146
00:08:03,639 --> 00:08:05,199
it does not you who just cave.

147
00:08:05,600 --> 00:08:07,439
Speaker 3: No, no, I've been around for nearly three years.

148
00:08:07,680 --> 00:08:11,240
Speaker 2: The new guest is mister Heywood, mister Haywood, eh and

149
00:08:11,439 --> 00:08:14,120
his room eighteen, Room eighteen.

150
00:08:14,560 --> 00:08:15,720
Speaker 3: I'm in twenty seven myself.

151
00:08:15,720 --> 00:08:18,240
Speaker 2: Gentlemen, if you'd be interested in a friendly game of

152
00:08:18,319 --> 00:08:21,240
stud poker the saving I'm afraid we are going to

153
00:08:21,279 --> 00:08:22,160
be busy this evening.

154
00:08:23,680 --> 00:08:27,160
Speaker 7: Yeah, we are going to be a valley busy.

155
00:08:31,519 --> 00:08:33,559
Speaker 2: So that took care of my last chance to put

156
00:08:33,559 --> 00:08:36,639
some meat on my thin bank roll. Jen and I

157
00:08:36,679 --> 00:08:38,960
had dinner at the lodge that night. Then I walked

158
00:08:38,960 --> 00:08:42,519
her back to a cottage above the hotel. The moon

159
00:08:42,600 --> 00:08:46,519
was bright, dry, snow squeaked under our feet. It was

160
00:08:46,559 --> 00:08:49,240
the same as any other night at Guamon, seemed the

161
00:08:49,240 --> 00:08:52,279
same anyway, Even the things we talked about were the same.

162
00:08:52,759 --> 00:08:55,960
Speaker 6: We must be patient, Mike. We will leave Maamo.

163
00:08:55,759 --> 00:08:58,840
Speaker 2: Someday, but when and how We'll never get out until

164
00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:01,080
I lay my hands on some dough, big dough, I mean,

165
00:09:02,080 --> 00:09:03,720
not the kind I can win from a bunch of

166
00:09:03,759 --> 00:09:06,200
yoguls who don't know two pair from a straight.

167
00:09:06,039 --> 00:09:07,960
Speaker 6: Your government would send your home, maybe.

168
00:09:07,720 --> 00:09:09,879
Speaker 2: Mike, Yeah, sure, sure, and shut me in the army.

169
00:09:10,759 --> 00:09:12,240
Only they don't have any use for a guy in

170
00:09:12,240 --> 00:09:16,440
my age, and that makes him mutual. Besides, they wouldn't.

171
00:09:16,120 --> 00:09:18,159
Speaker 3: Let you go with me, but I would wait.

172
00:09:18,879 --> 00:09:19,799
Speaker 6: And when the war is.

173
00:09:20,039 --> 00:09:23,200
Speaker 2: No dice, kid, when I go, you go. So the

174
00:09:23,240 --> 00:09:29,679
answer is still money. It sounds like somebody's been hurt.

175
00:09:29,679 --> 00:09:34,080
Come on, Honey, done down this way, Mike.

176
00:09:34,679 --> 00:09:36,120
Speaker 6: There's something lying this moose.

177
00:09:36,200 --> 00:09:38,919
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, that must be him.

178
00:09:38,440 --> 00:09:42,399
Speaker 6: Mike, Mike, it's the American, mister Heywood.

179
00:09:48,559 --> 00:09:51,159
Speaker 2: It was Hayward, all right, but it didn't look much

180
00:09:51,240 --> 00:09:54,080
like him anymore. His nose was broken and the rest

181
00:09:54,080 --> 00:09:56,720
of his face was pushed out of shape. Lord knows

182
00:09:56,720 --> 00:09:58,240
what else they've done to him.

183
00:09:58,600 --> 00:10:00,399
Speaker 6: Mm hmm mm hmm.

184
00:10:01,399 --> 00:10:05,879
Speaker 2: You all right, take take an easy fellaw. We'll get

185
00:10:05,879 --> 00:10:09,080
the doctor at the large nose.

186
00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:15,679
Speaker 3: Shure, slave, shure. You want to stand him jam.

187
00:10:15,759 --> 00:10:23,120
Speaker 6: It sounds as if you're saying shore sure, he left

188
00:10:23,799 --> 00:10:27,039
shure the heel of his left shore back.

189
00:10:28,200 --> 00:10:37,799
Speaker 3: Alice, What what was that? McAllister Joe, he's dead.

190
00:10:38,159 --> 00:10:39,240
Speaker 6: I'll get doctor gon to Mike.

191
00:10:39,399 --> 00:10:44,320
Speaker 2: Never mind doctor Gant the jam. He's dead.

192
00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:48,960
Speaker 5: No, how could it have happened? Do you think you

193
00:10:49,200 --> 00:10:50,240
very found a rock up there?

194
00:10:50,360 --> 00:10:53,360
Speaker 2: No, baby, he didn't fall of any rock. He fell

195
00:10:53,399 --> 00:10:54,919
under the hands of a couple of Germans.

196
00:10:58,679 --> 00:11:01,080
Speaker 3: It was all clear by that Heywood had.

197
00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:04,080
Speaker 2: Been an OSS agent, and the only winter sports the

198
00:11:04,080 --> 00:11:07,320
crowds had come to Noirmar for was torturing and beating him.

199
00:11:07,480 --> 00:11:10,200
It was tough, plenty tough. But then I still had

200
00:11:10,240 --> 00:11:14,759
problems too. I unlaced Heywood's left boot and slipped it

201
00:11:14,759 --> 00:11:15,399
off his foot.

202
00:11:15,519 --> 00:11:16,480
Speaker 6: What are you doing, Mike?

203
00:11:17,200 --> 00:11:19,840
Speaker 3: Finding out what hitlers happened as boys were after.

204
00:11:19,840 --> 00:11:21,879
Speaker 6: Look, the heel slips right off the shoe.

205
00:11:21,960 --> 00:11:24,039
Speaker 3: Yeah, there's something incited.

206
00:11:24,320 --> 00:11:29,360
Speaker 2: Wait a minute, it's a little ceylander.

207
00:11:29,440 --> 00:11:30,320
Speaker 3: It looks like a bullet.

208
00:11:30,360 --> 00:11:34,679
Speaker 2: That's no bullet, baby, it's a cylinder of microfilm microfi chers.

209
00:11:36,080 --> 00:11:40,320
I don't know whatever it is, it's important, whatever's importance

210
00:11:40,399 --> 00:11:40,960
is valuable.

211
00:11:41,080 --> 00:11:45,960
Speaker 3: What you think, uh me, I'm thinking about you and me, sweetheart.

212
00:11:46,679 --> 00:11:47,159
Never mind.

213
00:11:47,279 --> 00:11:49,159
Speaker 2: Now, look, you take this film and get back to

214
00:11:49,200 --> 00:11:51,639
your cottage and hide it. As far as anybody's concerned.

215
00:11:51,679 --> 00:11:53,399
You weren't with me when I found Heyward's body.

216
00:11:53,600 --> 00:11:54,440
Speaker 6: I don't understand.

217
00:11:54,519 --> 00:11:56,480
Speaker 3: You will get gone, baby, But what are you going

218
00:11:56,480 --> 00:11:56,759
to do?

219
00:11:56,840 --> 00:12:00,000
Speaker 2: Not a thing, Just sit around and cool my heels

220
00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:14,360
and wait for a guy named McAllister. Of course I

221
00:12:14,399 --> 00:12:17,919
had to report Heywood's death. I reported it to doctor Gunther,

222
00:12:18,120 --> 00:12:21,720
the house physician at the lodge. Oh, this is terrible,

223
00:12:22,799 --> 00:12:25,879
such a tragic excident. I didn't say it was an accident, doctor,

224
00:12:26,080 --> 00:12:29,080
but it was, of course. No wait a minute, he said, so.

225
00:12:29,879 --> 00:12:30,720
Speaker 3: I am the doctor.

226
00:12:30,960 --> 00:12:33,720
Speaker 8: Yeah, but you can't here. Heywoods slipped in terre for

227
00:12:33,720 --> 00:12:36,440
the lock. We will all do our best to see

228
00:12:36,440 --> 00:12:41,639
that there's no another such tragedy. Really not sleep. It

229
00:12:41,639 --> 00:12:43,440
gives the lotch a bad reputation.

230
00:12:46,080 --> 00:12:48,679
Speaker 2: So gun Through had already been briefed by his fellow crowds,

231
00:12:49,200 --> 00:12:52,159
and Heywood's death was an accident. Well, I was all

232
00:12:52,240 --> 00:12:53,799
right with me. It didn't hurt my angle a bit.

233
00:12:54,960 --> 00:12:57,080
The next morning, Guntha got all the guests together in

234
00:12:57,080 --> 00:12:59,120
the lobby and broke the sad new.

235
00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:02,320
Speaker 9: My friends, that you can all want to pay your

236
00:13:02,360 --> 00:13:07,559
last respects the victim of this unfortunate accident. Services for

237
00:13:07,840 --> 00:13:10,879
her Heywood will be heard in the chapel. At three

238
00:13:10,919 --> 00:13:15,200
o'clock this afternoon turned away and I fell little sick.

239
00:13:16,120 --> 00:13:18,360
Speaker 2: Sometimes these Nazis made it hard for a guy to

240
00:13:18,399 --> 00:13:22,120
stay strictly neutral, I was thinking. Then a hand clapped

241
00:13:22,120 --> 00:13:22,879
me on the shoulder.

242
00:13:23,559 --> 00:13:27,559
Speaker 7: Good morning, al Slid, Hello, Kitle, this is well, it said,

243
00:13:27,639 --> 00:13:29,720
this news about your fellow countryman.

244
00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:33,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, you're all broken up about it, aren't you.

245
00:13:33,039 --> 00:13:36,799
Speaker 7: Doctor guns informs me it was you who found the body.

246
00:13:36,799 --> 00:13:40,039
Speaker 2: In You and doctor Gunha keep each other pretty well informed.

247
00:13:40,159 --> 00:13:42,120
Speaker 3: I was wondering how Slid.

248
00:13:42,519 --> 00:13:47,120
Speaker 7: Yeah, I was wondering if, by any chance, you also

249
00:13:47,279 --> 00:13:48,639
found something else?

250
00:13:49,480 --> 00:13:53,679
Speaker 3: Whe are you when you keep right on wondering her title?

251
00:14:00,080 --> 00:14:02,360
Speaker 2: At most that day, playing solitaire at my favorite table

252
00:14:02,399 --> 00:14:04,559
near the desk, I wasn't listening for the names of

253
00:14:04,559 --> 00:14:08,480
poker prospects anymore. I was listening for another name, McAllister,

254
00:14:09,080 --> 00:14:13,559
but I didn't hear it. At three o'clock I went

255
00:14:13,600 --> 00:14:16,320
down to the chapel, I figured ioto pay my last

256
00:14:16,320 --> 00:14:19,159
respects to Heywood too. Was the least I could do,

257
00:14:19,840 --> 00:14:23,559
considering how much I was going to own. So cheap

258
00:14:24,759 --> 00:14:28,960
the accidental death of a passing stranger may seem like

259
00:14:28,960 --> 00:14:29,799
a trivial thing.

260
00:14:30,960 --> 00:14:32,240
Speaker 3: Believe me, my friend, it.

261
00:14:32,320 --> 00:14:35,360
Speaker 2: Was almost over when a big blonde guy sat down

262
00:14:35,399 --> 00:14:37,639
next to the You're Mike Slayton.

263
00:14:39,480 --> 00:14:45,360
Speaker 3: Yes, that's right. You found Heyward's body last night. What

264
00:14:45,440 --> 00:14:48,840
was left of him with us? He was still alive, wasn't.

265
00:14:48,639 --> 00:14:49,639
Speaker 2: He his spirit?

266
00:14:50,279 --> 00:14:50,759
Speaker 3: Slightly?

267
00:14:51,320 --> 00:14:51,679
Speaker 1: Lightly?

268
00:14:52,200 --> 00:14:58,399
Speaker 2: Did he say anything? Not much mentioned the name McAllister.

269
00:15:00,120 --> 00:15:02,720
Maybe I'm McAllister.

270
00:15:03,360 --> 00:15:07,840
Speaker 3: Oh he has gone okay and we are left here alone.

271
00:15:08,240 --> 00:15:13,159
He gave you something for me? Yeah? Good? When can

272
00:15:13,200 --> 00:15:17,039
I get it? When can you pay for it? Pay

273
00:15:17,200 --> 00:15:22,039
for it? That's what I said. I went twenty five

274
00:15:23,960 --> 00:15:28,120
franks dollars full filthy double.

275
00:15:28,679 --> 00:15:30,759
Speaker 2: I'll watch it. Is that a way to act at

276
00:15:30,759 --> 00:15:32,360
your buddy's funeral?

277
00:15:33,879 --> 00:15:37,720
Speaker 3: And now, dear friends, let it's all bow our heads

278
00:15:37,720 --> 00:15:38,240
in prayer.

279
00:15:46,480 --> 00:15:49,279
Speaker 2: The minister's sermon wasn't the only one I've heard that day.

280
00:15:49,679 --> 00:15:52,320
On the way back to the lodge, McAllister preached one too,

281
00:15:52,399 --> 00:15:55,039
And you call your flag. MacAllister, You've got my proposition,

282
00:15:55,120 --> 00:15:55,720
take it or leave it.

283
00:15:55,759 --> 00:15:59,000
Speaker 3: You know what's on that microfilm. You realize, what, what

284
00:15:59,120 --> 00:16:00,799
do you think I could get that kind of money.

285
00:16:01,559 --> 00:16:04,240
Speaker 2: You might try the embassy at Vain and if they

286
00:16:04,279 --> 00:16:11,159
won't buy it, then maybe Berlin will Berlin, you would

287
00:16:11,200 --> 00:16:14,000
actually shall let film to the Nazis sell out your

288
00:16:14,039 --> 00:16:15,960
own country. I haven't had a country for a long time.

289
00:16:16,039 --> 00:16:18,159
You were born on Amerture, but I've lived in Switzerland

290
00:16:18,159 --> 00:16:18,840
for quite a while.

291
00:16:20,679 --> 00:16:22,759
Speaker 3: Some of its neutrality is rubbed off on me.

292
00:16:29,320 --> 00:16:31,000
Speaker 2: I stayed away from Jen all that day because I

293
00:16:31,039 --> 00:16:33,360
didn't want to attract any attention to her. But as

294
00:16:33,360 --> 00:16:36,159
soon as it was dark, I started out for her cottage.

295
00:16:36,679 --> 00:16:38,080
I didn't get very far.

296
00:16:38,600 --> 00:16:40,240
Speaker 3: Good evening house led.

297
00:16:41,960 --> 00:16:43,960
Speaker 7: If Yes, stud and Ivish to talk.

298
00:16:44,039 --> 00:16:48,360
Speaker 2: The you guys picked funny places for conversation. On the contrary,

299
00:16:48,799 --> 00:16:52,720
this fits our needs admirably. Three of us are low and.

300
00:16:52,720 --> 00:16:56,679
Speaker 7: We had another conversation last night in a similar pace.

301
00:16:56,879 --> 00:16:58,639
Speaker 3: It would regret to have this one end in the

302
00:16:58,679 --> 00:17:02,440
same way that Indeed, Okay, what do you after the

303
00:17:02,519 --> 00:17:05,759
micro film? Of course, just give it to us. I

304
00:17:05,799 --> 00:17:07,119
don't know what you're talking about.

305
00:17:07,480 --> 00:17:10,079
Speaker 7: And I suppose we will have to stop the field.

306
00:17:11,319 --> 00:17:15,000
There's arms ver ver stut pinned my arms behind me?

307
00:17:15,480 --> 00:17:17,000
Speaker 3: Kinda let me have it square in the face with

308
00:17:17,079 --> 00:17:21,480
a fist is hard. There's a sledgehammer. Where's the microfilm? Straight?

309
00:17:22,319 --> 00:17:24,079
You'll never get it this way? Say not?

310
00:17:24,559 --> 00:17:25,960
Speaker 2: You didn't get it away from Hey with this way,

311
00:17:25,960 --> 00:17:29,240
did you? Why don't you meet heads? Get smart? Kill

312
00:17:29,279 --> 00:17:31,000
me and you'll never lay hands on that film. And

313
00:17:31,039 --> 00:17:33,240
if we don't carry you and you might have a chance.

314
00:17:33,880 --> 00:17:37,759
How much would the chance cost a slid? I'm catching

315
00:17:37,839 --> 00:17:40,359
on how much? Well I would have let you have

316
00:17:40,440 --> 00:17:42,480
a cheap before you started to push me around. The

317
00:17:42,519 --> 00:17:48,839
price is gone up. I want fifty fifty thousand marks dollars.

318
00:17:50,119 --> 00:17:59,480
Think it over, boys. They must have seen some logic

319
00:17:59,519 --> 00:18:01,319
in it, because they stopped slugging me and went away

320
00:18:01,359 --> 00:18:03,960
to talk it over. I didn't go to Jen's cottage

321
00:18:04,000 --> 00:18:06,680
after all. I didn't want them following me, So I

322
00:18:06,720 --> 00:18:08,440
went back up to my room. And when I got there,

323
00:18:09,720 --> 00:18:13,319
my door unlocked. The room was a shambles. Somebody had

324
00:18:13,319 --> 00:18:17,960
gone through it like a cyclone. U oss, boys, now,

325
00:18:17,960 --> 00:18:20,119
how to take a room apart, don't you McAllister? When

326
00:18:20,160 --> 00:18:21,799
we have to Did you have to do this?

327
00:18:21,960 --> 00:18:22,079
Speaker 3: Oh?

328
00:18:22,480 --> 00:18:24,839
Speaker 2: I came up to do it, but those get Stoppa

329
00:18:24,920 --> 00:18:27,880
agents save me the trouble. It was already done. I

330
00:18:27,960 --> 00:18:30,559
was afraid they might have found what they were looking for.

331
00:18:30,640 --> 00:18:32,319
How do you know they didn't? By the condition of

332
00:18:32,359 --> 00:18:34,799
your face. They've been working you over, haven't we?

333
00:18:34,960 --> 00:18:37,480
Speaker 3: What have it? They wouldn't have bothered if they'd found

334
00:18:37,480 --> 00:18:40,119
the film. You're quite a brain, aren't you. Mccallis.

335
00:18:40,119 --> 00:18:42,720
Speaker 2: You're not slaved. If you were, you wouldn't be playing

336
00:18:42,799 --> 00:18:44,920
this game. You're gonna wind up just where Heywood is.

337
00:18:44,960 --> 00:18:47,599
I'll take my chances. You don't know what the doe

338
00:18:47,640 --> 00:18:49,519
means to me. You'd understand you don't know what these

339
00:18:49,519 --> 00:18:52,440
films mean to the Allies, Or maybe you'd understand. Those

340
00:18:52,440 --> 00:18:55,440
are pictures of German maps, Slaid maps, showing the location

341
00:18:55,519 --> 00:18:58,119
of every Nazib two rocket launching site on the French coast.

342
00:18:58,359 --> 00:19:00,880
They could mean the saving of thousands of lives. They

343
00:19:00,880 --> 00:19:03,920
could even mean winning the war or losing it. Does

344
00:19:03,920 --> 00:19:08,400
that make any impression on you? My price is still

345
00:19:08,440 --> 00:19:14,160
the same, all right, Jen, Let me tell you what Heywood.

346
00:19:13,839 --> 00:19:16,039
Speaker 3: Went through to get those films. You'll be wasting your time.

347
00:19:16,079 --> 00:19:17,440
My price is still the same.

348
00:19:19,319 --> 00:19:22,480
Speaker 2: Okay, you're the guy who has to look in the

349
00:19:22,480 --> 00:19:27,240
mirror at yourself in your shave. I'll be around if you. Oh,

350
00:19:27,279 --> 00:19:32,400
I forgot about this. What this picture was on the floor.

351
00:19:32,440 --> 00:19:34,480
I accidentally stepped on it and broke the frame.

352
00:19:34,519 --> 00:19:37,319
Speaker 3: How me have that? I noticed the inscription to Mike

353
00:19:37,640 --> 00:19:40,559
with all my love Jen. Okay, okay, let's have it.

354
00:19:40,640 --> 00:19:45,000
She's the skiing instructor, isn't she beautiful? Girl? Be a

355
00:19:45,039 --> 00:19:48,559
shame if anything happened to that face? Is that a threat?

356
00:19:48,599 --> 00:19:53,240
Speaker 2: Mccallosy No, oh, the osays doesn't go in for torturing women.

357
00:19:53,920 --> 00:19:56,880
Maybe we're too sentimental. Why would anybody want to touch

358
00:19:56,960 --> 00:19:59,319
her because she's helping you play your little angle? What

359
00:19:59,480 --> 00:20:00,200
makes you think?

360
00:20:00,279 --> 00:20:03,039
Speaker 3: So? Just a guess. And if I can guess, it's

361
00:20:03,039 --> 00:20:07,119
so can Kitle and Erstadt. And they're not a bit sentimental.

362
00:20:17,799 --> 00:20:19,720
Speaker 2: It took me a while to fall asleep after that,

363
00:20:19,920 --> 00:20:23,119
but I managed it finally. Couldn't have been much later

364
00:20:23,160 --> 00:20:30,559
when the phone beside my bed woke me up. Yeah, Mike, Jen, Baby,

365
00:20:30,599 --> 00:20:31,079
what's the matter.

366
00:20:31,200 --> 00:20:32,119
Speaker 3: I've got to talk to you.

367
00:20:32,200 --> 00:20:41,480
Speaker 2: Mike, come to the cottage right away. I was scared

368
00:20:41,519 --> 00:20:44,160
then all the way over, Machallous's words kept ringing in

369
00:20:44,200 --> 00:20:45,519
my ears, and I was scared to.

370
00:20:45,440 --> 00:20:46,079
Speaker 3: Look at her face.

371
00:20:46,119 --> 00:20:48,559
Speaker 2: But there was nothing the matter with it. When I

372
00:20:48,559 --> 00:20:51,200
got there, the only mark center with the marks of

373
00:20:51,240 --> 00:20:52,880
worry and a guilty conscience.

374
00:20:52,920 --> 00:20:55,720
Speaker 6: I couldn't sleep, Mike. I had to call you. I've

375
00:20:55,720 --> 00:20:56,839
been thinking about it.

376
00:20:56,720 --> 00:20:59,240
Speaker 3: All night, about my new business enterprise.

377
00:20:59,279 --> 00:21:02,200
Speaker 5: I suppose you mean, yes, trying to make money out

378
00:21:02,200 --> 00:21:03,119
of those microfilms.

379
00:21:03,119 --> 00:21:05,839
Speaker 6: It's wrong, Darling. We can't go through with it.

380
00:21:05,880 --> 00:21:08,680
Speaker 2: Too bad, says McAllister. Was here, Yes, yes, he was

381
00:21:08,720 --> 00:21:10,079
waving a flag all over the place.

382
00:21:10,200 --> 00:21:12,720
Speaker 6: What he said, madsense, He told me what was on

383
00:21:12,759 --> 00:21:15,559
the film. He made me say how Hayward had suffered.

384
00:21:15,160 --> 00:21:16,759
Speaker 3: To get it. I'm surprised you didn't turn it over

385
00:21:16,799 --> 00:21:17,680
THEE I wouldn't.

386
00:21:17,359 --> 00:21:19,359
Speaker 6: Do that, you know it. But I want you to

387
00:21:19,400 --> 00:21:20,240
turn it over to him.

388
00:21:20,279 --> 00:21:25,279
Speaker 3: I will for twenty five grand, Mike, for nothing.

389
00:21:25,359 --> 00:21:28,160
Speaker 6: Because they belonged to him rightfully, and because they'll help

390
00:21:28,240 --> 00:21:29,240
the Allies win the world.

391
00:21:29,319 --> 00:21:32,480
Speaker 5: No dice, baby, Mike, do you want those vile metal

392
00:21:32,519 --> 00:21:33,319
s Natzi's too win?

393
00:21:33,440 --> 00:21:36,440
Speaker 3: All I want is my twenty five Jeeves, and then

394
00:21:36,440 --> 00:21:37,519
you and I can get out of here.

395
00:21:38,839 --> 00:21:39,720
Speaker 6: Not you and I.

396
00:21:39,960 --> 00:21:41,279
Speaker 3: Mike what.

397
00:21:42,799 --> 00:21:45,880
Speaker 6: I won't go with you under those conditions.

398
00:21:46,519 --> 00:21:47,839
Speaker 3: You don't mean that I do. I do.

399
00:21:49,480 --> 00:21:52,319
Speaker 6: I love you, Mike, but I couldn't go on loving

400
00:21:52,359 --> 00:21:54,720
you if you did a thing like this. I come

401
00:21:54,759 --> 00:21:55,240
to hate you.

402
00:21:56,160 --> 00:21:56,359
Speaker 3: Jen.

403
00:21:56,559 --> 00:21:58,519
Speaker 6: I'm sorry, Darling, It's true.

404
00:22:01,039 --> 00:22:05,000
Speaker 2: Well, Mike, I've waited twenty five years for break like this.

405
00:22:06,119 --> 00:22:08,079
I'm not going to let it run down the drain,

406
00:22:09,240 --> 00:22:13,960
not even for you. If you don't want to go okay,

407
00:22:14,000 --> 00:22:14,839
I'll be traveling along.

408
00:22:16,440 --> 00:22:21,039
Speaker 7: I don't think you'll be traveling anywhere just yet a slide.

409
00:22:25,359 --> 00:22:27,720
Speaker 2: It was titled and just behind it was Verstadt, and

410
00:22:27,799 --> 00:22:30,599
both of them carried Lucas. Before I could move, Verstat

411
00:22:30,599 --> 00:22:33,240
had used his the butter had clipped me on the head.

412
00:22:33,720 --> 00:22:33,960
Speaker 3: I know.

413
00:22:34,480 --> 00:22:38,000
Speaker 2: I remember hearing Jen scream and feeling myself crumbling toward

414
00:22:38,039 --> 00:22:44,000
the floor. When I came to, I couldn't move my

415
00:22:44,119 --> 00:22:46,680
arms on my legs. It took me a minute.

416
00:22:46,400 --> 00:22:48,599
Speaker 3: To figure out why I was tied with a chair.

417
00:22:49,640 --> 00:22:52,160
Speaker 2: Slowly the room came back and focused, and I saw

418
00:22:52,160 --> 00:22:53,359
the two Guestapo agents.

419
00:22:54,240 --> 00:22:56,920
Speaker 3: Then I saw Jen. What they've been doing get your

420
00:22:56,960 --> 00:22:58,920
hands off of your filthy rights. Don't touch her.

421
00:22:58,799 --> 00:23:01,519
Speaker 7: Again, being I need to touch a her sleeve if

422
00:23:01,519 --> 00:23:03,799
you will corporate with us better than cheers been doing.

423
00:23:03,880 --> 00:23:06,559
Speaker 2: Where is the microfilm hair sleeves? You still think you're

424
00:23:06,559 --> 00:23:07,440
gonna find out for free?

425
00:23:07,480 --> 00:23:12,079
Speaker 3: Huh yeah, me think so? Where is the microfilm hairsleeve? Along?

426
00:23:12,160 --> 00:23:14,359
You tell us where it is? All right, all right,

427
00:23:14,799 --> 00:23:17,759

428
00:23:18,279 --> 00:23:23,720
Speaker 7: We have stopped her slid my Please tell us, okay

429
00:23:24,359 --> 00:23:25,200
a microfilm is?

430
00:23:29,839 --> 00:23:29,880
Speaker 10: It?

431
00:23:30,000 --> 00:23:32,119
Speaker 2: Came from outside through the window that revolve a shot

432
00:23:32,759 --> 00:23:34,640
fierce that let out a groan and dropped the floor.

433
00:23:34,720 --> 00:23:36,599
Titdle dropped the floor too, but he hadn't been hit.

434
00:23:37,200 --> 00:23:38,759
He flicked the light switches, he went down.

435
00:23:38,839 --> 00:23:39,599
Speaker 3: The room went black.

436
00:23:40,880 --> 00:23:42,680
Speaker 2: The advantage was all his now he was in the

437
00:23:42,759 --> 00:23:45,839
pitch black room. Whoever was outside was moving around on

438
00:23:45,880 --> 00:23:48,599
the bright moonlight, made even brighter by the snow. I

439
00:23:48,640 --> 00:23:53,279
saw a title's gun spit the gun outside, answered. I

440
00:23:53,359 --> 00:23:55,759
was still tied hand and foot to the chair. There

441
00:23:55,759 --> 00:23:59,160
wasn't anything I could do, or was there. I remember

442
00:23:59,160 --> 00:24:01,559
that the light switch was just over my head. I

443
00:24:01,640 --> 00:24:03,680
worked until I got my chair turned around, so I

444
00:24:03,720 --> 00:24:06,400
was facing the wall. I started butting up with at

445
00:24:06,440 --> 00:24:07,039
the switch.

446
00:24:06,799 --> 00:24:07,240
Speaker 3: With my head.

447
00:24:07,799 --> 00:24:10,640
Speaker 2: Three times I missed it. Fourth time it clicked. The

448
00:24:10,759 --> 00:24:13,599
room was flooded with light. Kidle was outlined at the

449
00:24:13,640 --> 00:24:24,079
window like a sitting duck. It wasn't any great surprise

450
00:24:24,160 --> 00:24:26,400
when a tall blonde guy walked in a minute later.

451
00:24:26,759 --> 00:24:29,720
Speaker 3: He started one timing. Looks as if you had to

452
00:24:29,960 --> 00:24:32,119
choose signs after all, Slaine, Yeah.

453
00:24:32,039 --> 00:24:36,359
Speaker 10: It looks as if maybe I did ms. You are right, Jen,

454
00:24:38,119 --> 00:24:44,079
I'll be fine, sure, baby, Yes, Mike, thank you, mister McAllister.

455
00:24:45,039 --> 00:24:48,119
Speaker 3: I should have said that to McAllister. Thanks.

456
00:24:48,640 --> 00:24:53,119
Speaker 6: That's okay, Mike, And I don't you see now, don't

457
00:24:53,160 --> 00:24:54,400
you understand.

458
00:24:54,480 --> 00:24:55,720
Speaker 3: I don't know what you're talking about?

459
00:24:55,759 --> 00:24:58,680
Speaker 6: You do? You must the difference between here and those

460
00:24:58,920 --> 00:25:03,200
horrible roots. It's the whole point, Mike. That's why you

461
00:25:03,359 --> 00:25:05,359
can't hold onto that microfilm.

462
00:25:06,200 --> 00:25:11,240
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, yeah, the microfilm. I've been thinking about that.

463
00:25:12,359 --> 00:25:15,559
You've decided to give it to me. No, I haven't, McCallister.

464
00:25:16,720 --> 00:25:20,440
I'm a gambler, and gamblers don't give things away. All

465
00:25:20,480 --> 00:25:23,799
they do give is a sporting chance. What do you mean,

466
00:25:24,720 --> 00:25:28,400
I'll cut cards with you for the microfilm double enough.

467
00:25:29,119 --> 00:25:30,680
If I get the high card, you will give me

468
00:25:30,720 --> 00:25:33,960
the film, right, and if I get high card, you

469
00:25:34,079 --> 00:25:35,200
pay me fifty thousand.

470
00:25:36,680 --> 00:25:37,240
Speaker 3: It's the deal.

471
00:25:37,400 --> 00:25:59,799
Speaker 2: Slate Okay, yeah, shovel McCallister, you cut first, one card doesn't.

472
00:26:01,920 --> 00:26:10,440
Speaker 3: Well? Six not so good, fellow, go on, slate, cut

474
00:26:21,440 --> 00:26:25,680
Speaker 2: Jen, all right, Mike, Now, both sides in this war

475
00:26:25,720 --> 00:26:27,839
have cost me money.

476
00:26:28,599 --> 00:26:32,039
Speaker 6: There it is mister Mcanithton, and good luck to you.

477
00:26:32,160 --> 00:26:33,839
Speaker 3: With his luck, he'll win the worst single handed.

478
00:26:33,920 --> 00:26:39,960
Speaker 2: These microfilms will help. Good Bye, Jen, he's see yeah, he's.

479
00:26:39,799 --> 00:26:41,119
Speaker 3: Seeing mcal's.

480
00:26:44,480 --> 00:26:49,119
Speaker 6: Mike, why did you do it?

481
00:26:49,200 --> 00:26:49,480
Speaker 5: Do what?

482
00:26:51,640 --> 00:26:56,839
Speaker 6: Here's your card? The one new cut. He wasn't a fool,

483
00:26:57,839 --> 00:26:58,799
it was a thing.

484
00:27:00,400 --> 00:27:00,599
Speaker 3: Yeah.

485
00:27:00,640 --> 00:27:06,319
Speaker 6: I know you had him beaten. He would have paid

486
00:27:06,319 --> 00:27:07,359
the fiftieth thousand.

487
00:27:08,200 --> 00:27:14,839
Speaker 3: That's right, Mark, Why did you do it? I don't know, baby.

488
00:27:16,640 --> 00:27:19,920
I guess some guys just can't helping suckers.

489
00:27:20,440 --> 00:27:24,759
Speaker 5: I guess some guys just can't helping patriots.

490
00:27:34,200 --> 00:27:36,000
Speaker 3: So we were stuck in Switzerland for a couple of

491
00:27:36,039 --> 00:27:37,000
more years, Jane and I.

492
00:27:37,920 --> 00:27:39,680
Speaker 2: There were times when I could have kicked myself for

493
00:27:39,720 --> 00:27:43,799
being a sentimental chump lots of times until a day

494
00:27:43,839 --> 00:27:46,519
came after the war when I ran into McAllister again.

495
00:27:47,920 --> 00:27:49,920
Speaker 3: I felt better about it then. I guess you know.

496
00:27:49,960 --> 00:27:52,400
Speaker 2: What the Alliant Air Forces did to those Nazi rocket

497
00:27:52,440 --> 00:27:55,519
launching sites along the French coast couldn't have been done

498
00:27:55,519 --> 00:27:58,559
without the microfilm Slave, so you can take some credit

499
00:27:58,640 --> 00:28:01,839
for it. You were the toughest lie the US has

500
00:28:01,920 --> 00:28:06,880
ever had, brother, but you did the job. And once

501
00:28:06,880 --> 00:28:09,920
again the report of another OSS agent closes with.

502
00:28:09,920 --> 00:28:12,240
Speaker 3: The words mission accomplished.

503
00:28:12,519 --> 00:28:15,559
Speaker 2: Today's story was based on actual incidents recorded in the

504
00:28:15,640 --> 00:28:17,720
Washington files of the USS.

505
00:28:17,640 --> 00:28:22,799
Speaker 3: And was brought to you on Cloak and Dagger.

506
00:28:42,720 --> 00:28:46,559
Speaker 11: Heard in Today's Cloak and Dagger Adventures, McAllister was Less Tremaine,

507
00:28:46,839 --> 00:28:51,400
Mike Slaide, Bill Quinn, Jan Jan Minor. Others were Grant Richards,

508
00:28:51,480 --> 00:28:56,319
Raymond Edward Johnson, Carl Weber, Charles Irving, Steffan Schnabel, Boris Applin,

509
00:28:56,480 --> 00:28:59,920
Paul Arnold, and Jerry Jarrett. The script was written by

510
00:29:00,279 --> 00:29:03,119
Field and the music was under the direction of John Guard.

511
00:29:03,599 --> 00:29:08,440
Sound effects by Jerry McGee, engineering by Joe Silva. Today's

512
00:29:08,440 --> 00:29:11,559
OSS Adventure was based on the book Clokndagger by Corey

513
00:29:11,599 --> 00:29:15,839
Fard and Alistair McBain. This program was produced by Lewis G.

514
00:29:16,039 --> 00:29:19,799
Collen and Alfred Hollander and under the direction and supervision

515
00:29:19,799 --> 00:29:20,640
of Sherman Marx.

516
00:29:28,799 --> 00:29:32,839
Speaker 1: Welcome Back. In some ways, this episode clse to mind

517
00:29:33,319 --> 00:29:40,480
the film Cossablanca, with an expat trying to maintain neutrality

518
00:29:41,119 --> 00:29:46,119
in a neutral place. Although Mike lacks the heroic backstory

519
00:29:46,160 --> 00:29:49,640
of Rick Wayne, I think Mike is wrong to make

520
00:29:49,720 --> 00:29:52,440
his decision by two things. First of all, in the

521
00:29:52,519 --> 00:29:56,599
Nazis really didn't do much to make friends in the

522
00:29:56,640 --> 00:30:00,680
course of this operation, as was could be said of

523
00:30:00,759 --> 00:30:05,480
most of the war, and through their brutality, particularly towards Jen,

524
00:30:05,759 --> 00:30:09,000
pushed him towards his own country. But I think more

525
00:30:09,039 --> 00:30:15,200
importantly was the service and the approach of OSS men,

526
00:30:15,279 --> 00:30:20,359
in particular McAllister. And this is another key similarity with

527
00:30:20,519 --> 00:30:24,119
Casablanca of the cynic being inspired by the courage of

528
00:30:24,160 --> 00:30:29,640
a dedicated patriot, with McAllister instead of Victor Loslow and

529
00:30:29,839 --> 00:30:34,759
his action obviously more direct and seventy five years later,

530
00:30:34,839 --> 00:30:38,400
I think that inspiration still continues through the stories we've

531
00:30:38,440 --> 00:30:41,279
heard on Cloak and Dagger. The type of people we've

532
00:30:41,319 --> 00:30:45,759
heard about in this series are not the superspies of

533
00:30:45,920 --> 00:30:51,000
James Bond or I Spy, or the men from Uncle

534
00:30:51,119 --> 00:30:56,319
who would become such icons of popular culture. These were

535
00:30:56,920 --> 00:31:01,400
not professional spies, but citizens who took on a dangerous task,

536
00:31:02,119 --> 00:31:05,680
all responding yes to the offer that we heard at

537
00:31:05,680 --> 00:31:08,640
the start of each episode, and at least some of

538
00:31:08,680 --> 00:31:13,640
the people profiled paid with their lives. Some made colossal mistakes,

539
00:31:13,799 --> 00:31:17,319
others were either the victim or the beneficiary of luck.

540
00:31:17,960 --> 00:31:21,119
All took graversk to save the world from a darkness

541
00:31:21,119 --> 00:31:24,279
that threatened it and paid a cost to save it.

542
00:31:24,359 --> 00:31:28,519
Logan Dagger honors these brave men and women and holds

543
00:31:28,599 --> 00:31:34,640
up wonderfully as an exciting adventure series, great drama, and

544
00:31:35,000 --> 00:31:39,279
also a magnificent tribute to the sacrifices of the men

545
00:31:39,359 --> 00:31:42,960
and women of the OSS. I hope you've enjoyed this series.

546
00:31:43,000 --> 00:31:45,480
I've heard a lot of great feedback from so many

547
00:31:45,519 --> 00:31:49,359
of you who have enjoyed this series and really been

548
00:31:49,440 --> 00:31:53,319
surprised by it. It's a great gem that a lot

549
00:31:53,359 --> 00:31:58,440
of people haven't listened to, and for our first adult series,

550
00:31:58,839 --> 00:32:02,319
it really sets a high bar and it's been such

551
00:32:02,319 --> 00:32:04,799
a delight to bring it to you. And now it's

552
00:32:04,960 --> 00:32:08,200
time to thank our Patreon supporter of the day, and

553
00:32:08,279 --> 00:32:12,240
I want to thank Ian, Patreon supporter since September twenty twenty,

554
00:32:12,720 --> 00:32:15,720

555
00:32:15,759 --> 00:32:18,319
four dollars or more per month. Thanks so much for

556
00:32:18,359 --> 00:32:18,920
your support.

557
00:32:19,000 --> 00:32:19,200
Speaker 3: Ian.

558
00:32:19,480 --> 00:32:22,880
Speaker 1: And in terms of our series, next Saturday we begin

559
00:32:23,400 --> 00:32:28,039
our holiday break and we'll have an encore presentation for

560
00:32:28,359 --> 00:32:31,720
one of our other podcasts that still fits very well

561
00:32:31,759 --> 00:32:35,960
into the Great Adventurers theme and also fits within the

562
00:32:36,000 --> 00:32:41,079
sort of crime adventure that people would expect for being

563
00:32:41,160 --> 00:32:46,279
cross posted on Great Detectives. However, the Great Adventurers podcast

564
00:32:46,559 --> 00:32:50,759
will be back on Tuesday for one last episode, this

565
00:32:50,880 --> 00:32:55,559
one of Adventure Ahead and the Great Detectives podcast. We

566
00:32:55,799 --> 00:33:00,400
have our Sunday encore coming up tomorrow and then on

567
00:33:00,519 --> 00:33:05,039
Monday our regular lineup with Danger with Granger. In the meantime,
