1
00:00:09,960 --> 00:00:17,280
Speaker 1: Come in welcome. I'm e. G. Marshall. I don't know

2
00:00:17,320 --> 00:00:19,000
about you, but for.

3
00:00:19,039 --> 00:00:22,800
Speaker 2: Myself, I have never shied away from any story which

4
00:00:22,839 --> 00:00:29,280
involves coincidence, because real life produces many more outrageous coincidences

5
00:00:29,559 --> 00:00:32,240
than the fertile brain of any author can dream up.

6
00:00:33,039 --> 00:00:37,479
History teams with them. If missus Grant had not disliked

7
00:00:37,479 --> 00:00:40,880
Missus Lincoln, the play they would have attended was Aladdin

8
00:00:41,079 --> 00:00:44,880
at Gover's Theater, and the President would not have been

9
00:00:44,880 --> 00:00:48,920
at Ford's Theater to be assassinated. No sense in belaboring

10
00:00:48,920 --> 00:00:52,560
the point. The fact is that coincidence is a fact

11
00:00:52,600 --> 00:00:56,079
of life, and the axle of the wheel about which

12
00:00:56,159 --> 00:01:03,320
this story revolves our mystery drop. The Dead Ringer was

13
00:01:03,359 --> 00:01:06,879
written especially for the Mystery Theater by Ian Martin and

14
00:01:06,920 --> 00:01:11,200
stars Don Scardino. It is posited in part by your singer,

15
00:01:11,239 --> 00:01:16,000
Throwing Center and Buick Motor Division. I'll be back shortly

16
00:01:16,480 --> 00:01:33,040
with that one. It is said that every snowflake under

17
00:01:33,040 --> 00:01:37,159
a microscope has a different pattern, that there is no

18
00:01:37,280 --> 00:01:41,359
such thing as a perfect pair of matching diamonds, that

19
00:01:41,519 --> 00:01:45,719
each ant differs from his fellow ant, and that with

20
00:01:45,840 --> 00:01:50,040
the exception of identical twins, no, two human beings can

21
00:01:50,079 --> 00:01:54,959
be born alike. It may be two. You may like

22
00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:58,599
to believe that. After all, we like to think of

23
00:01:58,640 --> 00:02:05,480
ourselves as individuals. What suppose just suppose that it is

24
00:02:05,519 --> 00:02:12,240
not true. Somewhere every man has a perfect double. Bring

25
00:02:12,240 --> 00:02:16,280
them together, the man and his double, and you have

26
00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:21,680
the perfect coincidence. Let's start off by meeting detective third

27
00:02:21,719 --> 00:02:23,280
grade Bruce Hart.

28
00:02:27,120 --> 00:02:29,639
Speaker 3: You said for me, captain, Yeah, Bruce, come on in.

29
00:02:30,120 --> 00:02:33,759
Close the door, Am I under?

30
00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:34,120
Speaker 1: Copy?

31
00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:37,879
Speaker 3: No, son, you just had it pulled right out from under.

32
00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:42,479
Sit down, thank you, sir. I don't want to stretch

33
00:02:42,520 --> 00:02:46,479
this up. I feel lousy enough as it is. We

34
00:02:46,560 --> 00:02:49,639
got a little something going this thinking year of nineteen

35
00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:50,400
thirty one.

36
00:02:50,919 --> 00:02:55,560
Speaker 1: It's called the depression. You may have noticed, yes, sir captain,

37
00:02:55,639 --> 00:02:57,000
it's kind of hard to miss.

38
00:02:57,120 --> 00:03:00,439
Speaker 3: So they're cutting the force. I've been strugg with my

39
00:03:00,520 --> 00:03:01,960
quota all day.

40
00:03:02,319 --> 00:03:03,719
Speaker 1: You mean I'm getting the bus.

41
00:03:04,159 --> 00:03:07,919
Speaker 3: My hands are tied for my money, still wet behind

42
00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:08,439
the ears.

43
00:03:08,479 --> 00:03:10,759
Speaker 1: You're the best man I got in my squad. I

44
00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:13,919
hate to lose, you do. I turn in my badge

45
00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:15,000
and gun right now, sir.

46
00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:16,240
Speaker 4: No, I.

47
00:03:18,159 --> 00:03:20,199
Speaker 3: I got a little assignment to take some of the

48
00:03:20,319 --> 00:03:22,319
sting house. If you want to take.

49
00:03:22,120 --> 00:03:23,039
Speaker 1: It, what is it?

50
00:03:23,120 --> 00:03:28,319
Speaker 3: Captain A right, you're Pracacchi the persuader. Yeah, only he

51
00:03:28,319 --> 00:03:31,199
ain't doing much persuading. Now, I got to buy bars.

52
00:03:32,199 --> 00:03:35,599
Except even in a maximum security prison like Sing Sing,

53
00:03:35,639 --> 00:03:39,360
he's still running connections. So he's going to be moved

54
00:03:39,919 --> 00:03:46,240
Where the island Alcatraz? Yeah, someone's got to see he

55
00:03:46,360 --> 00:03:47,280
gets there safe.

56
00:03:47,400 --> 00:03:50,520
Speaker 1: You want the job, I'm done right. I figured that

57
00:03:50,680 --> 00:03:51,680
was the least I could do.

58
00:03:52,479 --> 00:03:54,759
Speaker 3: You'll get travel pay per damn in a couple of

59
00:03:54,759 --> 00:03:56,919
weeks left over after you make the delivery.

60
00:03:57,360 --> 00:04:01,719
Speaker 1: Oh, already, get back. Make you die him? Maybe?

61
00:04:02,280 --> 00:04:06,280
Speaker 3: Maybe what sir, Maybe there'll be some changes, something will

62
00:04:06,280 --> 00:04:10,800
open up. My oh, my kidness, all country is going

63
00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:12,919
down the drain. I'll be lucky. If I've got a

64
00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:17,680
dusk to calm my own boy, then good luck, Shun.

65
00:04:18,199 --> 00:04:21,199
I was looking forward to a long association with you.

66
00:04:21,199 --> 00:04:22,800
You'd have made one hell of a coup.

67
00:04:33,120 --> 00:04:36,279
Speaker 2: They turned my prisoner over at Penn Station, manacal to

68
00:04:36,360 --> 00:04:43,199
me selling, hiding behind dark glasses, uncommunicative, avoiding my glance

69
00:04:43,279 --> 00:04:46,720
as much as everyone. It wasn't until we were beyond

70
00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:50,000
Philadelphia that he took off his glasses and even looked

71
00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:50,240
at me.

72
00:04:51,079 --> 00:04:54,480
Speaker 1: Holy mother, what is it for? Cut you? It's the

73
00:04:54,839 --> 00:04:56,040
good luck I took out of you.

74
00:04:56,279 --> 00:05:00,519
Speaker 2: Somebody give me your money a heart right the word

75
00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:03,279
you ain't gonna be p d much longer.

76
00:05:03,839 --> 00:05:06,720
Speaker 1: That's none of your business. That used to say, could

77
00:05:06,759 --> 00:05:10,040
be what do you want? The key to the cuffs?

78
00:05:10,079 --> 00:05:10,959
And what's my take?

79
00:05:11,120 --> 00:05:14,240
Speaker 2: I hate that crude. I know I ain't gonna beat

80
00:05:14,319 --> 00:05:16,319
this lap, so I just sit it down.

81
00:05:17,199 --> 00:05:18,319
Speaker 1: What are you after? Mario?

82
00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:19,160
Speaker 4: No?

83
00:05:20,240 --> 00:05:22,519
Speaker 1: Just see what do you call it?

84
00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:25,680
Speaker 2: The coincidence is so wild?

85
00:05:26,720 --> 00:05:30,160
Speaker 1: What coincidence? You just spitting image?

86
00:05:30,439 --> 00:05:34,120
Speaker 2: I see look alike, but you I've never seen such

87
00:05:34,120 --> 00:05:37,680
a resemblance to whom how he must and.

88
00:05:38,519 --> 00:05:41,399
Speaker 3: He one of the boys, think of kidding, how he's

89
00:05:41,519 --> 00:05:43,120
like one of the four hundreds are like that?

90
00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:47,199
Speaker 1: Uh huh friend of yours. I know him. I know

91
00:05:47,360 --> 00:05:50,480
lots of guys in the like places. You got something

92
00:05:50,519 --> 00:05:54,160
on him? They like that as a social Look.

93
00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:57,480
Speaker 2: Everybody wants to make me some kind of monster. I'm

94
00:05:57,639 --> 00:06:01,519
just a business man like anyone. Oh my heart bleeds

95
00:06:01,560 --> 00:06:04,000
for you. Can you just pick the wrong isn't it?

96
00:06:04,040 --> 00:06:06,560
Speaker 1: What's so bad about booze.

97
00:06:06,439 --> 00:06:09,399
Speaker 2: Under prohibition, the amount of guys who lose their lives

98
00:06:09,480 --> 00:06:12,800
trying to run it and seat Uncle Sahan out of revenue.

99
00:06:13,439 --> 00:06:16,160
Speaker 1: Look, how'd you like to argue about to say, yeah,

100
00:06:16,680 --> 00:06:20,720
a hundred grand to let you fly the coop something

101
00:06:20,800 --> 00:06:22,720
like that. Who's the payment?

102
00:06:23,079 --> 00:06:27,279
Speaker 3: If you talk to Hollie Howard Martha, Yeah, one of

103
00:06:27,319 --> 00:06:28,160
the four.

104
00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:31,399
Speaker 2: Hundred best family. So he wants to give me one

105
00:06:31,480 --> 00:06:32,920
hundred thousand green one.

106
00:06:33,079 --> 00:06:35,360
Speaker 1: You am like, just bring you could.

107
00:06:35,120 --> 00:06:38,040
Speaker 5: Be no dice, okay.

108
00:06:38,439 --> 00:06:41,560
Speaker 1: I can't blame a guy to try and pad or

109
00:06:41,680 --> 00:06:44,399
how do we sleep and it's your drawing room and

110
00:06:44,759 --> 00:06:45,519
tied together?

111
00:06:45,639 --> 00:06:49,480
Speaker 2: Man, I'll show your lover no sweat. The only thing

112
00:06:49,560 --> 00:06:52,600
burns me is you get the lower bunk dot com

113
00:06:53,079 --> 00:06:56,959
because you get chained to the inside, snug and tight

114
00:06:57,120 --> 00:07:00,279
and below me when you can't try anything fan see

115
00:07:00,279 --> 00:07:10,560
while I sleep. The next day, Mario didn't bring up

116
00:07:10,560 --> 00:07:13,920
the subject that Howie margin again, except while I read

117
00:07:13,920 --> 00:07:15,079
a book, I'd.

118
00:07:14,879 --> 00:07:17,279
Speaker 1: Be conscious of him studying me. Out of the corner

119
00:07:17,279 --> 00:07:19,319
of his eye. He was shaking his head in a

120
00:07:19,439 --> 00:07:20,439
sort of wonderment.

121
00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:24,120
Speaker 2: After dinner that second night, he brought the man's name

122
00:07:24,240 --> 00:07:27,360
up out of the blue. I met him back in

123
00:07:27,439 --> 00:07:32,759
the twenty seventh he met who oh yaw in Losdon.

124
00:07:34,439 --> 00:07:38,160
That's honey, I don't see you mingling with the four hundred.

125
00:07:38,319 --> 00:07:40,720
It was on the kind of my daughter, and she

126
00:07:40,959 --> 00:07:44,680
was going to this real ritchy colleague. Howie was a

127
00:07:44,720 --> 00:07:46,920
graduate student in law in the same town.

128
00:07:47,160 --> 00:07:49,800
Speaker 1: He had the hearts for Penny. Your daughter.

129
00:07:50,120 --> 00:07:53,639
Speaker 5: Yeah, Penelope is the full name, Penelope, quite.

130
00:07:55,240 --> 00:07:59,120
Speaker 2: To who she thought her father was dead? How comes

131
00:07:59,160 --> 00:08:02,279
the only kid I hand the mother? Guy let it

132
00:08:02,439 --> 00:08:05,800
told I'd tell her that she was born. I didn't

133
00:08:05,800 --> 00:08:08,399
want none of what I was to rub off on

134
00:08:08,600 --> 00:08:12,120
my kid to I'm me a nice, good, solid family

135
00:08:12,160 --> 00:08:15,920
to bring her up. Your daughter, It was done to

136
00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:21,399
a clean mouthpiece, nice and legal and all adopted. But

137
00:08:21,480 --> 00:08:23,759
I've seen her with plenty of money, and I watched

138
00:08:23,800 --> 00:08:27,639
everything happened to her like a hawk. She was my

139
00:08:27,720 --> 00:08:31,279
own loman. She He gave her quite a break, No

140
00:08:31,360 --> 00:08:32,159
I didn't.

141
00:08:33,519 --> 00:08:36,799
Speaker 1: Every guy pulled some bonet place sooner or later.

142
00:08:36,919 --> 00:08:41,320
Speaker 2: And the real sucker player that I made was with Howie.

143
00:08:41,759 --> 00:08:45,559
How do you figure he shacked out perfect in every way.

144
00:08:45,679 --> 00:08:48,120
Speaker 1: I knew Penny was nuts about him.

145
00:08:48,399 --> 00:08:51,000
Speaker 2: I agreed to the marriage, but the one mistake I

146
00:08:51,120 --> 00:08:54,399
made was letting him know who I was.

147
00:08:55,159 --> 00:08:55,320
Speaker 4: Uh.

148
00:08:55,679 --> 00:08:57,080
Speaker 1: He tried to put the bite on.

149
00:08:57,120 --> 00:09:02,000
Speaker 2: You, not straight out he started law practice. I had

150
00:09:02,080 --> 00:09:04,600
to a few things his way to help him out.

151
00:09:04,799 --> 00:09:07,879
Look good stuff. But this boy may have had a

152
00:09:07,919 --> 00:09:11,480
social background a mile long, but come to the long glean,

153
00:09:11,879 --> 00:09:15,080
he had the shorts and I loved him in on

154
00:09:15,159 --> 00:09:17,440
a few things a little over the line.

155
00:09:17,639 --> 00:09:18,360
Speaker 1: What the devil?

156
00:09:18,399 --> 00:09:22,120
Speaker 2: He was family in this way like I was an

157
00:09:22,120 --> 00:09:25,000
old client of his. I could see pain and again

158
00:09:25,840 --> 00:09:31,840
and not using my own name. And then what suddenly?

159
00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:32,559
Speaker 1: Heat was on?

160
00:09:33,600 --> 00:09:39,200
Speaker 2: Patina SAIDs were boxing me in. I had some certain

161
00:09:39,320 --> 00:09:42,799
things I wanted to put by faith in case I

162
00:09:42,919 --> 00:09:43,720
hit the slammer.

163
00:09:44,639 --> 00:09:50,120
Speaker 5: So I I t I said enough, I said, here

164
00:09:50,159 --> 00:09:52,240
looking at you and forgetting your crop.

165
00:09:53,159 --> 00:09:55,000
Speaker 1: It's my honest open face.

166
00:09:55,279 --> 00:09:58,600
Speaker 2: It's the baby faces and the double low on you,

167
00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:02,639
except that I got a nice strong hunch you ain't

168
00:10:02,759 --> 00:10:03,360
like allie.

169
00:10:04,399 --> 00:10:07,120
Speaker 1: I thought you said I was a spitting image outside.

170
00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:10,399
Speaker 2: Yeah, inside something else?

171
00:10:10,440 --> 00:10:14,159
Speaker 1: Again, what do you think he's flipping you the double cross?

172
00:10:14,720 --> 00:10:20,360
Speaker 2: Look hot at the head right, that's the handle. I

173
00:10:20,480 --> 00:10:23,600
want you should do me a favorite. All I want

174
00:10:23,679 --> 00:10:25,559
you to do is to take my son in law.

175
00:10:25,639 --> 00:10:26,759
Little message from me.

176
00:10:27,559 --> 00:10:32,480
Speaker 5: Five these no go, I'll make it a G one thousand.

177
00:10:33,159 --> 00:10:36,080
Speaker 2: I don't remember you carrying that kind of lettuce sonya

178
00:10:36,159 --> 00:10:37,320
when we boarded the training.

179
00:10:37,320 --> 00:10:38,279
Speaker 1: I don't make jokes.

180
00:10:38,360 --> 00:10:41,080
Speaker 2: I ain't got it, but I'll send you and san

181
00:10:41,240 --> 00:10:42,399
fan or you'll get it.

182
00:10:42,720 --> 00:10:45,679
Speaker 5: Now, this is it all clean? I'll get you the message.

183
00:10:45,759 --> 00:10:46,240
Speaker 1: My word.

184
00:10:46,720 --> 00:10:50,879
Speaker 2: You can see that, no harm in it, and it's well,

185
00:10:50,919 --> 00:10:52,200
it's to protect my daughter.

186
00:10:52,840 --> 00:10:56,480
Speaker 1: You're wasting your time. You read that folder you're carrying

187
00:10:56,559 --> 00:10:59,480
on me. Didn't you cover the cover? We's like a

188
00:10:59,519 --> 00:11:00,080
best sell?

189
00:11:00,519 --> 00:11:04,200
Speaker 2: Then you know what I'm carrying inside my chest? Dometics

190
00:11:04,279 --> 00:11:08,320
light it out, a real bump ticker. I may never

191
00:11:08,360 --> 00:11:10,759
get off that island where heeaded going. Now, i'd give

192
00:11:10,799 --> 00:11:14,879
me a break. Now give my kid that break, would you?

193
00:11:15,799 --> 00:11:20,080
I swear I saint get hurt. Okay, what's the message?

194
00:11:20,799 --> 00:11:24,720
Just remember you can be replaced.

195
00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:30,159
Speaker 1: That's all. That's all. Look, what's the catch? Why me?

196
00:11:30,960 --> 00:11:31,919
Why pay all I do?

197
00:11:32,759 --> 00:11:34,879
Speaker 2: And any of your boys could get the same word

198
00:11:34,919 --> 00:11:36,919
to him and tell a hell of a lot bigger

199
00:11:36,960 --> 00:11:39,360
scaring to him than I could. Oh nobody, that's a

200
00:11:39,440 --> 00:11:41,519
whole point. That's just the point.

201
00:11:42,240 --> 00:11:47,480
Speaker 1: I don't get it. You will when you see Howard Marston.

202
00:11:53,840 --> 00:11:56,720
I'm not going to defend it. I thought it over

203
00:11:56,799 --> 00:11:59,159
that night and I made up my mind, who is

204
00:11:59,200 --> 00:12:02,000
I going to hurt? At least I could maybe help

205
00:12:02,039 --> 00:12:03,000
out an innocent girl.

206
00:12:04,080 --> 00:12:06,360
Speaker 2: He could small this guy how he was a wrong one,

207
00:12:06,440 --> 00:12:09,200
whatever he was trying to pull. I had lad that

208
00:12:09,360 --> 00:12:12,600
doctor's report, and Marry I'm sure wasn't coming off that island.

209
00:12:13,320 --> 00:12:16,000
And it was depression time and no job in a

210
00:12:16,120 --> 00:12:16,919
thousand bucks.

211
00:12:16,960 --> 00:12:20,480
Speaker 1: There's a lot of doors. Just go there, like get

212
00:12:20,639 --> 00:12:24,080
dinner time, ling a bell on a mouse. Yeah.

213
00:12:24,159 --> 00:12:26,799
Speaker 2: Now the best way would be to go after dark.

214
00:12:26,840 --> 00:12:29,840
And now they could get hat down, their coat, collar

215
00:12:30,039 --> 00:12:32,480
up in case it's a maid or a penny or

216
00:12:32,480 --> 00:12:37,200
whops the door if Exammy has to see Howie, if

217
00:12:37,200 --> 00:12:39,039
he's not there, you'll go back.

218
00:12:40,159 --> 00:12:41,480
Speaker 1: I'm not so sure I like it.

219
00:12:42,080 --> 00:12:44,159
Speaker 2: He's using me to put the fear of God into

220
00:12:44,159 --> 00:12:46,879
this guy. You'd got to marry because I looked like him.

221
00:12:47,519 --> 00:12:50,799
I'm not exactly a fool. You're turning the schools on

222
00:12:50,919 --> 00:12:51,200
the guy.

223
00:12:51,360 --> 00:12:53,039
Speaker 1: You got it? Well?

224
00:12:53,039 --> 00:12:56,720
Speaker 2: Does he deserve it? I ain't quite sure. And I

225
00:12:57,000 --> 00:13:02,759
look hid his go involved with California property lord like

226
00:13:02,840 --> 00:13:05,720

227
00:13:05,799 --> 00:13:06,399
it with UH.

228
00:13:06,559 --> 00:13:12,720
Speaker 1: Something happened. Tell me I don't trust for gosh, but

229
00:13:12,840 --> 00:13:14,559
you trust me. I come.

230
00:13:14,799 --> 00:13:18,200
Speaker 2: I spent three days ide your wrist and they have

231
00:13:18,279 --> 00:13:23,200

233
00:13:26,240 --> 00:13:29,080
on the table and I know better than any one.

234
00:13:29,120 --> 00:13:32,799
I'm dying up the anti all you want, but give

235
00:13:32,960 --> 00:13:44,799
me what may be my last chance to prottack my kid.

236
00:13:46,279 --> 00:13:47,440
Speaker 1: It was just turning dark.

237
00:13:48,200 --> 00:13:50,279
Speaker 2: I went out by cab, but hit him off at

238
00:13:50,279 --> 00:13:51,759
the gate and walked up to the house.

239
00:13:52,399 --> 00:13:55,600
Speaker 1: It wasn't large, but it spelled money and good taste.

240
00:13:56,200 --> 00:13:57,879
I was just about to mount the steps to the

241
00:13:57,879 --> 00:14:01,080
front door when I heard it with a shot.

242
00:14:01,919 --> 00:14:04,480
Speaker 3: I should have taken off running, but my cops and

243
00:14:04,519 --> 00:14:06,039
this thing made me go for my own gun and

244
00:14:06,080 --> 00:14:09,120
run towards the front door. As I got there, the

245
00:14:09,159 --> 00:14:12,320
door was opened violently, and the most beautiful girl I've

246
00:14:12,320 --> 00:14:15,480
ever seen in my life came running out a thirty

247
00:14:15,480 --> 00:14:16,799
eight revolver in her hand.

248
00:14:18,039 --> 00:14:18,480
Speaker 6: Who are you?

249
00:14:20,080 --> 00:14:20,919
Speaker 1: Yeah? Please?

250
00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:23,000
Speaker 6: Oh help me?

251
00:14:25,000 --> 00:14:30,519
Speaker 1: Dropped the gun? Who fired that shot?

252
00:14:31,080 --> 00:14:31,679
Speaker 2: I did.

253
00:14:34,120 --> 00:14:39,840
Speaker 6: My good, lord, Hi, I didn't shoot you?

254
00:14:40,519 --> 00:14:40,720
Speaker 1: Are you?

255
00:14:40,919 --> 00:14:41,200
Speaker 6: Why?

256
00:14:42,240 --> 00:14:42,360
Speaker 1: Oh?

257
00:14:42,440 --> 00:14:42,840
Speaker 5: How good?

258
00:14:42,919 --> 00:14:42,960
Speaker 2: You?

259
00:14:43,600 --> 00:14:43,799
Speaker 4: Oh?

260
00:14:49,480 --> 00:14:51,440
Speaker 1: One good? Look at me? And she passed out.

261
00:14:52,120 --> 00:14:55,000
Speaker 2: I couldn't blame her once I got inside, because the

262
00:14:55,120 --> 00:14:57,200
dead man who was shot and lying on the floor

263
00:14:57,840 --> 00:14:59,440
could just as easily have been me.

264
00:15:00,480 --> 00:15:03,320
Speaker 1: He was more than a spinning image. He was a

265
00:15:03,440 --> 00:15:12,159
dead ringer for me. I promised you.

266
00:15:12,360 --> 00:15:17,200
Speaker 2: Coincidence, and here we have it with a vengeance, except

267
00:15:17,799 --> 00:15:23,000
who's vengeance? A dying crime boss who still might be

268
00:15:23,120 --> 00:15:28,200
able to let a contract, a distracted and unhappy wife, or.

269
00:15:28,200 --> 00:15:30,679
Speaker 1: A person or person's unknown.

270
00:15:31,840 --> 00:15:34,720
Speaker 2: The only way to find out is to wait a

271
00:15:34,840 --> 00:15:37,720
couple of minutes until I return went back too.

272
00:15:51,559 --> 00:15:54,000
Speaker 1: Let me see, now, where were we?

273
00:15:55,240 --> 00:15:55,440
Speaker 4: Oh?

274
00:15:55,840 --> 00:16:00,440
Speaker 2: Yes, a beautiful young woman with a gun practically still

275
00:16:00,639 --> 00:16:05,279
smoking in her hand, not unsurprisingly fainting as she is

276
00:16:05,440 --> 00:16:10,279
caught in the seeming flight, particularly since the man who

277
00:16:10,360 --> 00:16:16,159
has caught her is one a policeman and two as

278
00:16:16,399 --> 00:16:20,559
close in looks to her dead husband as an identical twin.

279
00:16:21,639 --> 00:16:24,639
One further note, before we turn the story back to

280
00:16:24,759 --> 00:16:30,120
the protagonists or antagonists, as the case may be, the

281
00:16:30,279 --> 00:16:33,879
room in which the dead man lies, as indeed we

282
00:16:33,960 --> 00:16:38,320
will later discover the whole house is an utter shambles.

283
00:16:38,919 --> 00:16:44,440
It has been searched desperately for something. Here, Penny, drink this.

284
00:16:46,279 --> 00:16:49,159
Oh no, I says, Okay, it's just some brandy idea.

285
00:16:49,519 --> 00:16:50,360
It'll clear your head.

286
00:16:50,919 --> 00:16:57,039
Speaker 6: Oh what happened?

287
00:16:58,080 --> 00:17:00,120
Speaker 1: That was the question I was going to ask you.

288
00:17:01,200 --> 00:17:06,039
You who are you no one to be afraid of? Yes?

289
00:17:06,799 --> 00:17:09,519
Didn't I did? I didn't?

290
00:17:09,759 --> 00:17:12,240
Speaker 6: You say you were a policeman?

291
00:17:13,799 --> 00:17:14,079
Speaker 1: Yes?

292
00:17:15,160 --> 00:17:17,680
Speaker 6: But how did you know my name was Pammy?

293
00:17:18,440 --> 00:17:22,359
Speaker 1: Well, there are other more important questions. First, No, no,

294
00:17:23,960 --> 00:17:27,519
how what are you trying to do to me? I'm

295
00:17:27,559 --> 00:17:28,119
not howling.

296
00:17:32,960 --> 00:17:36,319
Speaker 6: Is gonna be some horrible nightmare? If I could just

297
00:17:36,480 --> 00:17:36,880
wake up?

298
00:17:37,279 --> 00:17:40,119
Speaker 2: If you want something to shock you awake, I suggest

299
00:17:40,240 --> 00:17:42,680
you take a good look at what is your husband

300
00:17:43,440 --> 00:17:45,720
or what's left of them on the floor.

301
00:17:46,279 --> 00:17:51,319
Speaker 1: Oh no, why did you shoot him? They didn't? They didn't.

302
00:17:52,079 --> 00:17:54,039
You didn't fire a shot with this gun?

303
00:17:54,440 --> 00:18:01,079
Speaker 4: Yes? No, yes, I mean not exactly how he would

304
00:18:01,119 --> 00:18:06,720
bad already he would. I don't know what's happened to me.

305
00:18:08,880 --> 00:18:10,440
Speaker 6: How he did on the floor.

306
00:18:11,799 --> 00:18:13,279
Speaker 7: Oh he isn't.

307
00:18:14,119 --> 00:18:17,680
Speaker 6: I mean you're standing in front of me.

308
00:18:18,440 --> 00:18:22,400
Speaker 2: My name is Detective Blushheart. I am not your husband,

309
00:18:22,720 --> 00:18:24,400
although I look enough like him to be.

310
00:18:26,359 --> 00:18:27,559
Speaker 6: Are you going to ask me?

311
00:18:28,359 --> 00:18:31,359
Speaker 2: No, I'm not local police. I came here to bring

312
00:18:31,440 --> 00:18:34,279
a message to your husband and stumbled on this by accident.

313
00:18:35,039 --> 00:18:36,680
When you met me at the door, you had this

314
00:18:36,880 --> 00:18:39,839
gun in your hand. It had just been fired.

315
00:18:40,720 --> 00:18:41,240
Speaker 4: That's right.

316
00:18:42,200 --> 00:18:42,880
Speaker 6: He made me.

317
00:18:43,920 --> 00:18:48,359
Speaker 1: Oh, I don't know. We ought to call the police.

318
00:18:49,000 --> 00:18:49,680
Have you called him?

319
00:18:49,960 --> 00:18:50,000
Speaker 2: No?

320
00:18:50,319 --> 00:18:54,079
Speaker 6: I haven't had a chance. And how would it look

321
00:18:54,119 --> 00:18:58,279
if I did? They'd direct me from murder, wouldn't.

322
00:18:58,319 --> 00:18:59,839
Speaker 1: I don't know.

323
00:19:00,799 --> 00:19:03,880
Speaker 2: There's some things that have a kilter. It doesn't all jibe.

324
00:19:04,079 --> 00:19:08,319
I don't understand your husband, Howard Marsden, the man on

325
00:19:08,359 --> 00:19:12,240
the floor. Yeah, the bullet I heard fires couldn't have

326
00:19:12,359 --> 00:19:16,160
killed him. How do you know there was another bullet

327
00:19:16,240 --> 00:19:19,480
fired from this gun. I can't vouch that that was

328
00:19:19,599 --> 00:19:22,319
the one that did kill him. I can only tell

329
00:19:22,359 --> 00:19:24,880
you that when the second bullet was fired from this gun,

330
00:19:25,079 --> 00:19:29,799
Howard Marsden had been dead. You said he made you

331
00:19:29,920 --> 00:19:30,279
fire it.

332
00:19:30,960 --> 00:19:31,599
Speaker 1: What does that mean?

333
00:19:31,720 --> 00:19:35,279
Speaker 6: Couldn't we just get out of this room? It makes

334
00:19:35,319 --> 00:19:35,839
me sick.

335
00:19:36,039 --> 00:19:40,519
Speaker 1: Okay, though we haven't much time lead the way, missus Marston.

336
00:19:40,960 --> 00:19:43,079
Speaker 6: I still don't understand how you know me.

337
00:19:47,279 --> 00:19:49,279
Speaker 1: This is the kitchen.

338
00:19:50,759 --> 00:19:53,119
Speaker 2: Looks like a cyclone hit this, as well as your

339
00:19:53,160 --> 00:19:57,480
living room, and they'll take a long bet the whole house.

340
00:19:58,079 --> 00:20:02,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, you grab care, sit down and tell me fast

341
00:20:02,519 --> 00:20:03,119
what happened.

342
00:20:03,599 --> 00:20:10,880
Speaker 6: Well, well, Howard hasn't been living here for quite a while.

343
00:20:13,119 --> 00:20:14,839
This evening I was out.

344
00:20:15,160 --> 00:20:16,799
Speaker 1: Visiting his friend, boyfriend.

345
00:20:17,519 --> 00:20:20,039
Speaker 6: Man, I know he's a lawyer.

346
00:20:20,640 --> 00:20:23,319
Speaker 2: Well, which way you're visiting the last friend? The lawyer

347
00:20:24,039 --> 00:20:28,799
both And while I was living there was a phone

348
00:20:28,839 --> 00:20:36,880
call from Howard. He he was, well, I don't know

349
00:20:36,960 --> 00:20:38,279
if I should be talking to you.

350
00:20:38,680 --> 00:20:40,480
Speaker 1: Missus more than a level with you.

351
00:20:40,960 --> 00:20:44,119
Speaker 2: I really am a detective. I had a valid reason

352
00:20:44,200 --> 00:20:47,640
for being here tonight. I think I'm probably the only

353
00:20:47,799 --> 00:20:50,319
person in the world who can really help you. But

354
00:20:50,519 --> 00:20:53,279
course I have to know your whole story. It's a gamble.

355
00:20:54,039 --> 00:20:56,519
You want to trust me, Okay?

356
00:20:58,799 --> 00:21:01,000
Speaker 6: It was howard voice on the phone.

357
00:21:02,440 --> 00:21:06,000
Speaker 7: He said he said he'd been thinking.

358
00:21:05,799 --> 00:21:09,599
Speaker 6: Things over and that he thought he'd been wrong, and

359
00:21:10,279 --> 00:21:12,160
that he'd be back at the house at seven point

360
00:21:12,160 --> 00:21:15,519
thirty and could I meet him there alone so we

361
00:21:15,599 --> 00:21:16,039
could talk.

362
00:21:17,039 --> 00:21:19,559
Speaker 1: The boyfriendly heard this my lawyer.

363
00:21:20,240 --> 00:21:24,160
Speaker 6: Yes, I mean he heard money. End of the conversation.

364
00:21:25,240 --> 00:21:27,000
Speaker 1: Well, didn't you want to go with you? Yes?

365
00:21:27,640 --> 00:21:33,240
Speaker 6: But judge, huh, judge, ready, that's my lawyer. Oh he

366
00:21:33,359 --> 00:21:35,400
had another appointment he couldn't put off.

367
00:21:35,720 --> 00:21:39,640
Speaker 1: With whom I don't know didn't So what did you do?

368
00:21:40,559 --> 00:21:40,720
Speaker 4: Oh?

369
00:21:40,880 --> 00:21:43,240
Speaker 6: Well, I wanted to think about a lot of things.

370
00:21:43,319 --> 00:21:47,559
I took a cable cart, a fisherman's dwarf, and just

371
00:21:47,839 --> 00:21:52,000
wandered among the crowds here and then I came back

372
00:21:52,440 --> 00:21:55,359
over the hill and it drove back and arrived here

373
00:21:55,519 --> 00:21:56,720
just a few minutes.

374
00:21:56,480 --> 00:21:59,200
Speaker 1: Before you did. Well, tell me what happened then?

375
00:22:00,079 --> 00:22:02,960
Speaker 6: Well, the lights were on in the living room, and

376
00:22:03,720 --> 00:22:07,680
when the doors of the patio was open, I just

377
00:22:07,839 --> 00:22:12,440
walked in and one look was enough to freeze me

378
00:22:12,559 --> 00:22:16,680
with terror. By well, you see the way everything is

379
00:22:16,759 --> 00:22:24,279
ripped apart. And then I saw Howie lying on the

380
00:22:24,359 --> 00:22:33,880
floor and the blood well, and I went to him. This,

381
00:22:35,440 --> 00:22:40,559
this revolver was lying beside him. Then stupidly I picked

382
00:22:40,599 --> 00:22:43,640
it up, and suddenly, before I knew what was happening,

383
00:22:44,759 --> 00:22:49,400
somebody called me from behind, and one arm locked around

384
00:22:49,440 --> 00:22:52,160
my throat until I could hardly breathe, and the other

385
00:22:52,240 --> 00:22:56,839
hand closed over mine and made me fire. That tongue,

386
00:22:58,160 --> 00:23:02,000
and then I was thrown by let me forward before

387
00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:03,039
I could get to my feet.

388
00:23:03,160 --> 00:23:06,799
Speaker 1: Whoever it disappeared, man or woman, couldn't tell.

389
00:23:08,519 --> 00:23:09,839
Speaker 6: You don't believe me to you.

390
00:23:11,720 --> 00:23:14,799
Speaker 2: I'll tell you something, missus Martin. My being here is

391
00:23:14,799 --> 00:23:19,119
an accident. Count me out for the moment. Either you

392
00:23:19,359 --> 00:23:22,559
killed your husband and tore this house apart looking for something,

393
00:23:23,319 --> 00:23:26,480
or you were frayed set up. But who would I

394
00:23:26,559 --> 00:23:28,599
don't know. But if we want to get you off

395
00:23:28,640 --> 00:23:29,319
the hook, we're going to.

396
00:23:29,319 --> 00:23:30,039
Speaker 1: Have to move fast.

397
00:23:30,400 --> 00:23:33,119
Speaker 2: What do you mean if you're supposed to be caught

398
00:23:33,200 --> 00:23:36,519
red handed, someone must bother that they've called the police.

399
00:23:37,480 --> 00:23:38,920
Speaker 1: You didn't go could pass for your husband?

400
00:23:39,240 --> 00:23:39,440
Speaker 4: Oh?

401
00:23:39,799 --> 00:23:40,319
Speaker 1: Of course.

402
00:23:41,440 --> 00:23:43,640
Speaker 6: It's hard for me even to look at you and

403
00:23:43,720 --> 00:23:47,920
think that, Holly is I mean if I can't tell

404
00:23:48,000 --> 00:23:49,720
the different talk that anybody else.

405
00:23:50,640 --> 00:23:53,680
Speaker 2: I'll give you twenty four hours. You'll have to brief me,

406
00:23:54,240 --> 00:23:57,839
prompt me, cover for me. But for those twenty four hours,

407
00:23:58,000 --> 00:23:59,559
your husband isn't dead.

408
00:24:00,759 --> 00:24:06,400
Speaker 1: You got me. You gotta freezer downstairs? Is it full

409
00:24:06,400 --> 00:24:06,759
of food?

410
00:24:07,519 --> 00:24:11,400
Speaker 6: No? Simly, bet cop it perfectly, hooky.

411
00:24:12,200 --> 00:24:14,640
Speaker 1: I think we can fit your husband's body in there.

412
00:24:16,119 --> 00:24:19,799
Speaker 2: I can't, Okay, then we better move fast and get

413
00:24:19,880 --> 00:24:23,200
rid of him and that bloodstained rug before those cops arrived.

414
00:24:29,400 --> 00:24:31,640
We barely had time to dispose of the late mister

415
00:24:31,720 --> 00:24:34,720
Marsden and get our stories straight. But I was really

416
00:24:34,839 --> 00:24:37,519
mister Morrisden and not just the stand in for the corpse.

417
00:24:38,400 --> 00:24:41,519
Then the police were there, and after some milling and

418
00:24:41,680 --> 00:24:45,799
jockeying about, Penny and I were alone with the Lieutenant Roper.

419
00:24:46,720 --> 00:24:48,279
Speaker 1: And you say you will have no.

420
00:24:48,480 --> 00:24:52,200
Speaker 2: Idea what the perpetrator was looking for, mister Marsden. Not

421
00:24:52,359 --> 00:24:56,160
the slightest you figure they found what it was, I mean,

422
00:24:57,359 --> 00:24:59,720
is very missing, missus Marsdon.

423
00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:02,079
Speaker 6: I don't think so. I haven't had time to check.

424
00:25:02,759 --> 00:25:06,279
Speaker 2: Well, if you should find anything missing or that the

425
00:25:06,440 --> 00:25:09,480
guy might have been looking for, you would let me

426
00:25:09,559 --> 00:25:13,279
know at the department. Maybe If nothing turns up, I

427
00:25:13,400 --> 00:25:16,839
would like to check back here with you by tomorrow night.

428
00:25:18,160 --> 00:25:20,920
I'll have to take the gun that was fired, but

429
00:25:21,359 --> 00:25:23,759
I can arrange to leave you another for protection.

430
00:25:23,559 --> 00:25:26,000
Speaker 1: If you want. I think Penny ought to have one

431
00:25:27,480 --> 00:25:28,480
just one question.

432
00:25:30,039 --> 00:25:32,880
Speaker 2: You are certain that neither of you caught even a

433
00:25:33,119 --> 00:25:34,640
glimpse of the perpetrator.

434
00:25:34,960 --> 00:25:39,079
Speaker 1: I didn't. I so neither of you know whether it

435
00:25:39,240 --> 00:25:41,920
was a man or a woman, even that's right?

436
00:25:43,160 --> 00:25:47,920
Speaker 2: Okay, Well, I'll arrange about the gun and leave you alone,

437
00:25:48,200 --> 00:25:55,079
mister and missus Marsden. I was surprised at the weight

438
00:25:55,160 --> 00:25:58,559
of the gun enought with us, A big heavy forty five.

439
00:25:58,720 --> 00:26:01,720
It looked like was surplus, but I was glad he

440
00:26:01,759 --> 00:26:05,279
didn't ask too many questions. I already had my next

441
00:26:05,319 --> 00:26:08,119
stretched way out and there was a lot to do

442
00:26:08,319 --> 00:26:11,680
as fast as possible. As soon as he left, I

443
00:26:11,759 --> 00:26:14,000
got a few things straight with Missus Martin.

444
00:26:14,640 --> 00:26:18,279
Speaker 6: Under the circumstances, wouldn't it be easier to just call

445
00:26:18,359 --> 00:26:18,839
me Penny?

446
00:26:19,680 --> 00:26:23,839
Speaker 1: Okay? And my name is Bruce Penny. Her daughter is

447
00:26:23,880 --> 00:26:26,759
a big question. How do you know it is?

448
00:26:27,839 --> 00:26:28,799
Speaker 6: How do I know who had?

449
00:26:29,000 --> 00:26:30,640
Speaker 1: How do you know my name is Bruce? Oh?

450
00:26:31,039 --> 00:26:32,519
Speaker 2: How do you know I'm not the guy who whipped

451
00:26:32,599 --> 00:26:34,799
up the house, the guy who made you fire the gun?

452
00:26:35,839 --> 00:26:36,000
Speaker 3: Oh?

453
00:26:36,119 --> 00:26:38,559
Speaker 7: Well, I don't know, all right.

454
00:26:39,039 --> 00:26:39,920
Speaker 6: I haven't thought about it.

455
00:26:40,359 --> 00:26:44,720
Speaker 1: Everything has been so what are you doing here anyway?

456
00:26:45,519 --> 00:26:48,279
Speaker 2: Has it happened? I came to bring your husband a message?

457
00:26:49,079 --> 00:26:53,559
Oh from whom your father? But my father's dead, not

458
00:26:53,720 --> 00:26:57,200
your real one. But that's gonna have to wait. If

459
00:26:57,240 --> 00:26:59,839
you're worried about me, you have a gun for protection.

460
00:27:00,960 --> 00:27:06,279
Speaker 1: I don't know why, but I'm not worried about you. Okay,

461
00:27:07,359 --> 00:27:08,279
put it. I'm worried.

462
00:27:08,839 --> 00:27:10,839
Speaker 2: I'm way out on a limb unless we can figure

463
00:27:10,880 --> 00:27:14,799
out who really killed your husband. So first off, what

464
00:27:15,000 --> 00:27:15,960
was the person looking for?

465
00:27:16,440 --> 00:27:16,839
Speaker 1: I don't know.

466
00:27:17,440 --> 00:27:18,680
Speaker 7: I have no idea.

467
00:27:19,480 --> 00:27:22,839
Speaker 6: Would your boyfriend, though he's not my boyfriend, he only

468
00:27:22,960 --> 00:27:24,519
wants to be well.

469
00:27:24,960 --> 00:27:29,279
Speaker 1: We'll ask him. Did your husband have a girlfriend all

470
00:27:29,440 --> 00:27:29,960
the time?

471
00:27:30,799 --> 00:27:30,960
Speaker 2: Oh?

472
00:27:31,200 --> 00:27:32,279
Speaker 1: Glad to feel did he?

473
00:27:32,559 --> 00:27:32,759
Speaker 2: Oh?

474
00:27:33,920 --> 00:27:35,559
Speaker 1: But not totally.

475
00:27:35,400 --> 00:27:37,799
Speaker 6: Promiscuous, just one at a time.

476
00:27:39,079 --> 00:27:41,640
Speaker 7: His last one seemed to have him sewed up pretty well.

477
00:27:42,200 --> 00:27:44,160
Who honey, child?

478
00:27:44,319 --> 00:27:49,200
Speaker 2: Cos then you should pardon the expression, let's strip it home.

479
00:27:51,279 --> 00:27:53,440
Speaker 1: The first thing have to be what they were looking for.

480
00:27:54,200 --> 00:27:55,200
It's still got to be there.

481
00:27:55,640 --> 00:27:56,119
Speaker 7: How do you know?

482
00:27:56,759 --> 00:28:00,359
Speaker 2: Because if it had been found, the damage would have stopped, couldn't,

483
00:28:00,759 --> 00:28:04,599
So that means it wasn't found. Whoever was rooking was thorough,

484
00:28:05,200 --> 00:28:08,200
which means it isn't here or else. Howie was one

485
00:28:08,319 --> 00:28:11,319
smart cookie. Let's see if we can be smarter.

486
00:28:17,000 --> 00:28:19,720
Speaker 1: I tried all the trick places, the bottoms.

487
00:28:19,359 --> 00:28:22,200
Speaker 2: Of drawers and back of the stiles between the drawers

488
00:28:22,559 --> 00:28:25,079
under the top of the toilet tank, A thousand other

489
00:28:25,119 --> 00:28:27,400
gimmicky little hiding places people dream up.

490
00:28:28,160 --> 00:28:30,000
Speaker 1: Finally, the corpse itself.

491
00:28:30,920 --> 00:28:34,720
Speaker 2: The polls have been searched, pockets turned outside in linings,

492
00:28:34,839 --> 00:28:38,720
ripped out, trouser cuffs torn apart. There was one last

493
00:28:38,799 --> 00:28:43,920
final possibility, Bull's eye. His left armpit was shaved and taped.

494
00:28:43,960 --> 00:28:47,240
Underneath it was a safe deposit key number two eight

495
00:28:47,400 --> 00:28:47,920
two four.

496
00:28:48,359 --> 00:28:50,720
Speaker 7: I'd never seen it before, snapped mine.

497
00:28:51,359 --> 00:28:53,720
Speaker 1: I wonder what did your husband bank?

498
00:28:54,440 --> 00:28:59,799
Speaker 7: A first underlighted we both have accounts there. Oh, I'm sorry,

499
00:29:00,440 --> 00:29:01,440
I am so tacket.

500
00:29:02,039 --> 00:29:04,880
Speaker 2: Well you have time for let's see about a four

501
00:29:04,960 --> 00:29:07,799
hour nap. We can't do much else but wait until

502
00:29:07,839 --> 00:29:10,440
the morning. But nine o'clock you and me are going

503
00:29:10,480 --> 00:29:12,960
to be waiting for the bank to open up. Oh,

504
00:29:13,440 --> 00:29:15,880
before you hit the sack, can you show me something

505
00:29:16,000 --> 00:29:19,400
with your husband's signature on it? Of course, But why

506
00:29:19,599 --> 00:29:21,599
now I'm in this bar, I might as well go

507
00:29:21,680 --> 00:29:24,039
all the way. I'll have to practice it so we

508
00:29:24,119 --> 00:29:26,000
can get that safe deposit box open.

509
00:29:25,880 --> 00:29:26,359
Speaker 1: In the morning.

510
00:29:30,759 --> 00:29:33,200
Speaker 2: It all went just as easily as if i'd been

511
00:29:33,279 --> 00:29:36,880
Howard Marton himself alone in a bank room with penny,

512
00:29:37,200 --> 00:29:40,559
we opened a large box. It contained only two things,

513
00:29:41,200 --> 00:29:44,240
a sealed letter addressed a penny or to whom it's

514
00:29:44,279 --> 00:29:48,799
may concern, and go wads of it in old bills,

515
00:29:48,880 --> 00:29:52,720
mostly hundreds, but some packages of thousands. It had to

516
00:29:52,799 --> 00:29:54,759
be at least a million dollars.

517
00:29:55,440 --> 00:29:58,519
Speaker 7: I've never seen so much money.

518
00:29:59,079 --> 00:30:02,839
Speaker 1: Not many of us. You here better open this letter.

519
00:30:03,599 --> 00:30:07,079
I'm I'm too nervous. Why don't you one?

520
00:30:07,240 --> 00:30:10,680
Speaker 2: Because it definitely says to whom this may concern, but

521
00:30:10,880 --> 00:30:15,000
mainly because it's addressed to you, you better check it.

522
00:30:15,720 --> 00:30:16,319
Speaker 1: See what it is.

523
00:30:23,039 --> 00:30:27,240
Speaker 2: If, as Bruce suspects, there's a million dollars in currently

524
00:30:28,319 --> 00:30:32,640
acts some nice, healthy motive for murder, But whose money

525
00:30:32,720 --> 00:30:36,680
is it? Where does it come from? And does the

526
00:30:36,799 --> 00:30:41,880
note tell who it is intended for? Though our questions

527
00:30:42,000 --> 00:30:44,519
we can answer when I return with Act three.

528
00:30:46,119 --> 00:30:50,960
Speaker 3: Thanksgiving is a day of tradition like Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade,

529
00:30:53,160 --> 00:30:55,000
exciting football rival.

530
00:30:58,359 --> 00:30:59,839
Speaker 1: And of course family and peat.

531
00:31:01,279 --> 00:31:05,240
Speaker 3: Traditionally, the Friday and Saturday after Thanksgiving are great sale

532
00:31:05,319 --> 00:31:09,440
days at Macy's and Bamburgers, two days of tremendous savings

533
00:31:09,519 --> 00:31:13,880
on furs, fashions, and accessories for the whole family, marvelous

534
00:31:13,920 --> 00:31:19,480
home furnishings, TV stereo appliances, and a matchless selection at gifts.

535
00:31:20,000 --> 00:31:24,559
The Friday and Saturday after Thanksgiving traditionally two great days

536
00:31:24,640 --> 00:31:26,319
for everyone to shop and save.

537
00:31:26,440 --> 00:31:29,880
Speaker 1: At Macy's and Bamberger's, a.

538
00:31:30,000 --> 00:31:33,680
Speaker 3: Fisher matched stereo system featuring the famous Power Pact one

539
00:31:33,799 --> 00:31:37,599
ninety B receiver, two waying Fisher speakers, and BSR changer.

540
00:31:38,119 --> 00:31:41,759
If purchased separately, these components would cost you five hundred

541
00:31:41,759 --> 00:31:44,640
and twenty dollars. This great system is now just three

542
00:31:44,759 --> 00:31:49,160
hundred dollars. During Macy's and Bamberger's Thanksgiving weekend sales.

543
00:32:01,640 --> 00:32:06,599
Speaker 2: Bruce proved to be incredibly accurate in his guests. The

544
00:32:06,720 --> 00:32:10,519
contents of that safe deposit box added up exactly to

545
00:32:10,640 --> 00:32:15,119
a million dollars, but they mattered far less to Penny

546
00:32:15,640 --> 00:32:20,240
than the stunning content of the letter, which read substantially

547
00:32:20,559 --> 00:32:25,440
as follows, My dearest Penelope, someone is trying to kill me,

548
00:32:26,440 --> 00:32:30,839
most probably someone your father has provided for the dirty business.

549
00:32:31,440 --> 00:32:35,200
If I'm lucky no one will ever read this, I

550
00:32:35,279 --> 00:32:38,720
shall have my divorce from you, and shall quietly steal

551
00:32:38,799 --> 00:32:41,799
away with this fortune your father gave to me for

552
00:32:42,039 --> 00:32:47,599
safe keeping. If Mario Kocacci even suspects I dream of

553
00:32:47,799 --> 00:32:51,799
double crossing him, I know my death warrant is signed.

554
00:32:52,480 --> 00:32:54,359
I wonder who my executioner is?

555
00:32:55,119 --> 00:32:55,279
Speaker 4: Is it?

556
00:32:55,440 --> 00:32:59,559
Speaker 2: You did sweet Penelope know all the time who she

557
00:32:59,680 --> 00:33:03,440
really was? And when the moment came? Was it like

558
00:33:03,640 --> 00:33:05,000
father like daughter?

559
00:33:05,839 --> 00:33:06,079
Speaker 1: Well?

560
00:33:06,519 --> 00:33:09,880
Speaker 2: As I say, if this is being read, what the

561
00:33:09,960 --> 00:33:14,559
hell's the difference? I'll see you there someday in hell.

562
00:33:15,640 --> 00:33:22,599
Speaker 1: Howie, my PERCUTI that that bast.

563
00:33:22,400 --> 00:33:23,480
Speaker 7: Is my father?

564
00:33:23,799 --> 00:33:25,960
Speaker 1: No, No, he didn't bring you up, and he.

565
00:33:26,119 --> 00:33:28,720
Speaker 6: Was responsible for my being got into the world.

566
00:33:29,079 --> 00:33:32,200
Speaker 2: If he was, he was also responsible for seeing to

567
00:33:32,319 --> 00:33:34,880
it that you and your foster parents never wanted for

568
00:33:35,000 --> 00:33:36,279
anything in all your life.

569
00:33:36,480 --> 00:33:40,160
Speaker 6: Of course you were the messenger, weren't you. Well you

570
00:33:40,240 --> 00:33:43,079
must be a great friend of my father. Hardly And

571
00:33:43,200 --> 00:33:45,839
I suppose you think you have me in the perfect spot.

572
00:33:45,960 --> 00:33:49,640
Now you can blockmail me into silence by threatening to

573
00:33:49,759 --> 00:33:51,519
expose me. And how he's murderers?

574
00:33:51,640 --> 00:33:52,240
Speaker 2: Are you No?

575
00:33:52,640 --> 00:33:55,400
Speaker 1: Can you prove it? No?

576
00:33:56,079 --> 00:33:59,599
Speaker 2: Well, then there's still a lot of work to be done. Incidentally,

577
00:33:59,720 --> 00:34:03,440
for you, I was no friend of your father's. I

578
00:34:03,799 --> 00:34:07,359
was and still am, a police officer who was assigned

579
00:34:07,400 --> 00:34:09,639
to escort him safely from Sing Sing.

580
00:34:09,559 --> 00:34:11,280
Speaker 1: To Alcatraz Architrave.

581
00:34:12,079 --> 00:34:14,719
Speaker 2: My last job for the police department was to deliver

582
00:34:14,840 --> 00:34:19,360
your father safely to where he is. But there's no

583
00:34:19,480 --> 00:34:22,039
time to talk about me now. I've got to get going.

584
00:34:22,880 --> 00:34:26,199
Speaker 1: Can I go with you? No, I do this by myself.

585
00:34:27,119 --> 00:34:29,239
Speaker 7: I am not going back to that house.

586
00:34:29,599 --> 00:34:30,400
Speaker 1: Don right, You're not.

587
00:34:30,960 --> 00:34:33,800
Speaker 2: We're checking you into a hotel, and just for everyone's safety,

588
00:34:33,840 --> 00:34:36,480
I'm providing an old ex cop friend of my father's

589
00:34:36,559 --> 00:34:40,159
to stand guard over you, to protect me or watch me,

590
00:34:40,719 --> 00:34:41,800
maybe a little.

591
00:34:41,639 --> 00:34:44,360
Speaker 1: Of both till I check out some loose ends.

592
00:34:48,559 --> 00:34:51,440
Speaker 2: The lawyer boyfriend was first, and although I didn't know

593
00:34:51,599 --> 00:34:55,400
him from Adam, he certainly thought he knew me, Mister

594
00:34:55,559 --> 00:34:58,840
George reading Attorney, just as obviously.

595
00:34:58,480 --> 00:34:59,760
Speaker 1: Didn't like who he thought.

596
00:35:00,719 --> 00:35:03,719
Speaker 3: Why should I tell you, Howie, where I was between

597
00:35:03,840 --> 00:35:06,199
five thirty and seven thirty last night.

598
00:35:06,679 --> 00:35:08,960
Speaker 1: You were with my wife last night at five thirty.

599
00:35:09,000 --> 00:35:09,320
Weren't you?

600
00:35:09,480 --> 00:35:09,639
Speaker 4: You know?

601
00:35:09,840 --> 00:35:10,440
Speaker 1: Don Well?

602
00:35:10,519 --> 00:35:10,960
Speaker 2: I was.

603
00:35:11,119 --> 00:35:13,400
Speaker 3: You called me here at my office and I answered

604
00:35:14,199 --> 00:35:17,400
at my office. Note that so don't think you can

605
00:35:17,519 --> 00:35:20,159
start any kind of divorce action on the basis of that.

606
00:35:20,960 --> 00:35:23,079
Speaker 1: Were you to get it from five thirty until she

607
00:35:23,159 --> 00:35:24,239
came to meet me at the house.

608
00:35:24,440 --> 00:35:25,320
Speaker 2: No, I was not.

609
00:35:25,760 --> 00:35:29,360
Speaker 1: I had business to attend to. We parted after your call.

610
00:35:29,920 --> 00:35:30,480
Where did you go?

611
00:35:32,159 --> 00:35:35,559
Speaker 2: That is none of your business, but I'm going to

612
00:35:35,719 --> 00:35:39,639
answer you before you go digging for your information. During

613
00:35:39,719 --> 00:35:42,639
that time, I was doing what Penny was apparently doing,

614
00:35:43,119 --> 00:35:43,960
thinking about you.

615
00:35:44,159 --> 00:35:45,440
Speaker 1: And her in the future.

616
00:35:46,239 --> 00:35:48,360
Speaker 3: I rode all the way out to Monterey and sat

617
00:35:48,480 --> 00:35:51,880
looking at the sea, trying to figure out an acceptable

618
00:35:52,559 --> 00:35:55,000
or even unacceptable way to get rid of a toad

619
00:35:55,679 --> 00:36:00,480
called Howard Marsden. I didn't get back and go after

620
00:36:00,559 --> 00:36:04,119
a weapon. I didn't stop to eat or for gas.

621
00:36:05,079 --> 00:36:06,639
I didn't see anyone on you.

622
00:36:07,559 --> 00:36:09,079
Speaker 1: That's not much of an alibi.

623
00:36:09,360 --> 00:36:14,480
Speaker 2: I don't need any alibis. I guess you don't, George.

624
00:36:15,039 --> 00:36:17,840
If you did, I'm sure you'd have set one up.

625
00:36:22,119 --> 00:36:25,119
It wasn't enough to strike George off the list altogether.

626
00:36:25,639 --> 00:36:28,960
But my hunch was he wasn't my man. If he

627
00:36:29,119 --> 00:36:32,039
was a murderer, he was the best actor I'd ever seen,

628
00:36:32,840 --> 00:36:35,880
because when what would have been a corpse to him

629
00:36:36,239 --> 00:36:39,559
walked in unannounced, he hadn't even turned her hair as

630
00:36:39,599 --> 00:36:44,119
he greeted me. My greeting from honey, child Cox was

631
00:36:44,199 --> 00:36:47,679
something else again. When she opened her door and grabbed me,

632
00:36:47,800 --> 00:36:51,159
she smothered me. She was a big woman, a lot

633
00:36:51,239 --> 00:36:54,400
of women, but she had all the strength of a man.

634
00:36:55,119 --> 00:36:56,400
Speaker 1: Highly baby.

635
00:36:56,599 --> 00:37:01,400
Speaker 8: Oh my god, sweetie, wait you, babe, I thinkured east

636
00:37:01,519 --> 00:37:05,519
winded I ever, Oh lord, it's so good to see.

637
00:37:05,599 --> 00:37:09,239
I could eat your ice for her. The poor little

638
00:37:09,440 --> 00:37:13,519
southern gale thought some of those lawful boys had gotten you.

639
00:37:14,079 --> 00:37:15,480
Speaker 1: Come on, a sugar, come on in.

640
00:37:16,920 --> 00:37:18,280
Speaker 7: Why didn't use your key?

641
00:37:19,960 --> 00:37:21,280
Speaker 1: I forgot it when you've.

642
00:37:21,159 --> 00:37:24,400
Speaker 6: Been all the long night, I've been fretting.

643
00:37:24,119 --> 00:37:27,760
Speaker 8: Myself half to dare it didn't stack up again with

644
00:37:27,880 --> 00:37:29,719
that two bit little wife for yours.

645
00:37:29,880 --> 00:37:33,599
Speaker 1: Oh honey, nothing like that. You're just better nodded or

646
00:37:33,639 --> 00:37:37,840
Honey's live o. That ployer is a nobody two times me.

647
00:37:38,320 --> 00:37:40,280
You'd think I would, oh not with.

648
00:37:40,519 --> 00:37:45,800
Speaker 8: My vegas connection, sweetie, No, I don't think you would

649
00:37:45,840 --> 00:37:47,199
run out on the little honey.

650
00:37:47,360 --> 00:37:48,880
Speaker 1: Cha how well you still want you?

651
00:37:49,440 --> 00:37:51,199
Speaker 6: And while you're still in to me for all the.

652
00:37:51,679 --> 00:37:55,360
Speaker 8: Hardered door, I was silly enough to lend you to

653
00:37:55,599 --> 00:37:58,159
keep those iron those boys from breaking.

654
00:37:57,880 --> 00:38:01,639
Speaker 1: My darling's legs. Did you make a day with your

655
00:38:01,719 --> 00:38:03,039
wife to get yourself from.

656
00:38:02,920 --> 00:38:03,639
Speaker 6: Me off the hook.

657
00:38:04,119 --> 00:38:05,800
Speaker 1: Well, I'll tell you, honey, child.

658
00:38:05,639 --> 00:38:08,639
Speaker 8: Who told me who's brought that skinny little runt wash?

659
00:38:09,159 --> 00:38:11,599
You promise you could get it to pay off, so

660
00:38:11,760 --> 00:38:13,760
you could pay me back and get the leg as

661
00:38:13,800 --> 00:38:14,719
bunch off your back.

662
00:38:15,679 --> 00:38:17,760
Speaker 1: Okay? Did she come through?

663
00:38:18,599 --> 00:38:18,760
Speaker 2: Oh?

664
00:38:18,960 --> 00:38:19,239
Speaker 1: Sure?

665
00:38:19,960 --> 00:38:21,960
Speaker 2: Did I tell you I could wind you around my

666
00:38:22,039 --> 00:38:26,039
little finger? Let the money talk, or I will in

667
00:38:26,159 --> 00:38:27,920
a moment say where.

668
00:38:27,760 --> 00:38:29,960
Speaker 1: Were you last night? From five to thirty on? So

669
00:38:30,079 --> 00:38:34,840
that I couldn't reach you? Why did you call? Sure?

670
00:38:35,119 --> 00:38:36,880
But I couldn't get any answer.

671
00:38:37,239 --> 00:38:41,000
Speaker 8: Oh, that's because I was beat after my last performance.

672
00:38:41,719 --> 00:38:44,400
I figured I wouldn't see you till around by midnight,

673
00:38:44,519 --> 00:38:47,960
so I took some pills and I slept me practically

674
00:38:48,000 --> 00:38:48,679
around the clock.

675
00:38:49,480 --> 00:38:54,719
Speaker 1: You were all alone? Didn't go out? Baby? Would I

676
00:38:55,079 --> 00:38:55,840
cheat on you?

677
00:39:03,880 --> 00:39:03,920
Speaker 7: Do?

678
00:39:04,079 --> 00:39:05,679
Speaker 6: We have to go back to the house.

679
00:39:06,480 --> 00:39:07,039
Speaker 1: It would look.

680
00:39:07,000 --> 00:39:09,119
Speaker 2: Funny if at least one of us wasn't there when

681
00:39:09,239 --> 00:39:13,199
Lieutenant whatever his name is, Okay, that's right anyway, when

682
00:39:13,320 --> 00:39:16,840
he checks back. Besides, there's the little matter of your

683
00:39:16,920 --> 00:39:21,079
husband's body. The impression I've been getting around is that

684
00:39:21,199 --> 00:39:25,039
he was a gambling, cheating welsher. Are you all that

685
00:39:25,239 --> 00:39:26,480
sorry to see him dead.

686
00:39:26,880 --> 00:39:28,920
Speaker 7: And say you can see anyone dead?

687
00:39:29,679 --> 00:39:33,039
Speaker 1: Are you a penny or is that justice phony? A mask?

688
00:39:33,079 --> 00:39:36,880
Speaker 2: As honey Child's southern accent? What do you mean process

689
00:39:37,000 --> 00:39:41,639
of elimination? Your lawyer, George could have killed Howie honey

690
00:39:41,760 --> 00:39:44,559
Child could have I don't think they did.

691
00:39:45,440 --> 00:39:45,960
Speaker 7: He don't think.

692
00:39:46,079 --> 00:39:49,800
Speaker 2: I dis you were the only logical one left. But

693
00:39:49,920 --> 00:39:50,920
here's why I'm gambling.

694
00:39:51,000 --> 00:39:51,400
Speaker 1: You didn't.

695
00:40:04,480 --> 00:40:08,320
Speaker 2: Planets didn't, I said, I dropped back tonight. Yeah, I've

696
00:40:08,320 --> 00:40:10,920
been expecting you. Shall we go in the living room?

697
00:40:11,000 --> 00:40:18,159
Speaker 1: Sure you are. You've been a pretty busy guy today. Really,

698
00:40:19,199 --> 00:40:20,440
how come? Well?

699
00:40:20,639 --> 00:40:23,039
Speaker 2: Like when I'm following up a case, it's always a

700
00:40:23,159 --> 00:40:28,360
surprise to find someone going before me. How George reading

701
00:40:28,840 --> 00:40:33,599
honey Child Cox in the connection with the attempted.

702
00:40:33,320 --> 00:40:36,760
Speaker 1: Robbery or whatever? Here I followed them.

703
00:40:36,679 --> 00:40:40,079
Speaker 2: Up at Leeds that I got to lie on the bank.

704
00:40:41,440 --> 00:40:45,519
I'm not surprised. And why not just call me Howie?

705
00:40:46,239 --> 00:40:51,800
Speaker 1: Why Well? Like you said, you know me? We alone,

706
00:40:52,920 --> 00:40:58,440
don Wright. What's the gun for, Howie? The one you

707
00:40:58,519 --> 00:41:01,400
were stupid enough to give me the protection.

708
00:41:02,159 --> 00:41:07,119
Speaker 2: The one that looked something like this, that's right now?

709
00:41:07,280 --> 00:41:12,800
Who the devil are you anyway, where's Howie? What did

710
00:41:12,880 --> 00:41:16,519
you do with him after you killed him? Okay, okay,

711
00:41:16,559 --> 00:41:17,280
you want me to say it?

712
00:41:17,639 --> 00:41:17,920
Speaker 1: Sure?

713
00:41:18,760 --> 00:41:20,320
Speaker 5: After I killed him.

714
00:41:20,480 --> 00:41:22,199
Speaker 1: To try to frame his wife? Why not?

715
00:41:23,679 --> 00:41:26,800
Speaker 2: He swore the safe deposit key was at the house.

716
00:41:27,599 --> 00:41:31,239
I made him call Penny, then we drove there. When

717
00:41:31,280 --> 00:41:32,880
we got in, he tried to jump me and I

718
00:41:33,000 --> 00:41:36,480
killed him by accident. It didn't matter. I was going

719
00:41:36,519 --> 00:41:37,800
to anyway once I had the key.

720
00:41:38,559 --> 00:41:41,119
Speaker 1: You knew about the money Howard had hidden from Mario.

721
00:41:41,760 --> 00:41:44,960
Speaker 2: I was part of the whole setup, and you Mario

722
00:41:45,159 --> 00:41:48,599
had his stake put away and I got overextended.

723
00:41:48,679 --> 00:41:52,880
Speaker 1: My payoffs were gone with Mario and jail. So I had.

724
00:41:52,800 --> 00:41:55,639
Speaker 2: Already made situation to set up a pigeon and get

725
00:41:55,679 --> 00:41:56,440
away with murder.

726
00:41:56,800 --> 00:42:00,639
Speaker 1: That's smart. Only you couldn't find the key. You to

727
00:42:00,760 --> 00:42:03,440
do that for me? So what did you do with Howie?

728
00:42:04,599 --> 00:42:09,599
He's in the freezer? No good, What doesn't matter? What

729
00:42:09,679 --> 00:42:10,079
do you mean?

730
00:42:10,320 --> 00:42:14,000
Speaker 5: I can dump Howie's body and we'll just do it

731
00:42:14,320 --> 00:42:15,320
all over.

732
00:42:15,320 --> 00:42:19,360
Speaker 1: Again, with you doubling for him. The guns are.

733
00:42:19,280 --> 00:42:23,280
Speaker 2: All set up, yes, but you're not afraid I might

734
00:42:23,400 --> 00:42:26,800
fire this one first? You think you stand a chance

735
00:42:27,840 --> 00:42:29,039
It floaded with blanks.

736
00:42:30,559 --> 00:42:31,159
Speaker 1: Very clever.

737
00:42:32,039 --> 00:42:35,320
Speaker 2: Only this time, how do you get Penny's fingerprints on

738
00:42:35,360 --> 00:42:38,119
the murder gun as cleverly as you did the last time.

739
00:42:38,280 --> 00:42:42,400
I'll figure that out, He'll say, goodbye, smart stuff, you're

740
00:42:42,440 --> 00:42:44,239
about to take a long ride.

741
00:42:45,039 --> 00:42:48,480
Speaker 6: Is a gun atenant and it doesn't have blanks?

742
00:42:49,559 --> 00:42:50,719
Speaker 1: And leave him blink.

743
00:42:51,480 --> 00:42:54,760
Speaker 2: Right fire And the gun I've been holding has been reloaded.

744
00:42:55,280 --> 00:42:59,599
It's just as lethal two to one as a payoff

745
00:42:59,719 --> 00:43:03,519
cop who always knew the odds. Why fight him when

746
00:43:03,519 --> 00:43:04,360
they're against you?

747
00:43:11,079 --> 00:43:15,480
Speaker 6: How he fooled me? I was young, and he looked

748
00:43:15,519 --> 00:43:19,000
awful good, and he fooled my foster parents as well.

749
00:43:20,360 --> 00:43:23,239
But the last couple of years I finally start through

750
00:43:23,320 --> 00:43:24,199
him for what he was.

751
00:43:25,280 --> 00:43:27,840
Speaker 7: If he'd ever been honest with me, he could have

752
00:43:27,920 --> 00:43:28,840
had all the money.

753
00:43:28,960 --> 00:43:29,639
Speaker 6: I didn't even know.

754
00:43:29,719 --> 00:43:30,000
Speaker 2: What's that?

755
00:43:31,119 --> 00:43:36,639
Speaker 7: All I wanted was my freedom. What's going to happen now?

756
00:43:37,760 --> 00:43:41,599
Speaker 2: We have a lieutenant, a long complicated form of police

757
00:43:41,639 --> 00:43:46,119
procedure confiscation of the money. Except for that nice ten

758
00:43:46,239 --> 00:43:51,880
thousand dollars reward for recovering it, Lieutenant Roper will get his.

759
00:43:53,599 --> 00:43:58,480
Speaker 1: And that we'll both try as best we can to

760
00:43:58,679 --> 00:44:05,719
start new lives. I guess. I guess, well, as long

761
00:44:05,760 --> 00:44:08,760
as we're celebrating, would you like some brandy or something.

762
00:44:09,400 --> 00:44:12,800
Speaker 7: No, I wouldn't like some brandy or something.

763
00:44:13,960 --> 00:44:18,559
Speaker 6: Okay, what I might like is the message my father

764
00:44:18,679 --> 00:44:20,840
sent to Hollie that was supposed to save me.

765
00:44:21,840 --> 00:44:29,760
Speaker 1: Nothing, just a warning quote just remember you can be replaced, unquote.

766
00:44:31,000 --> 00:44:32,400
Speaker 6: That's the exact message.

767
00:44:33,880 --> 00:44:34,280
Speaker 1: Honest.

768
00:44:35,079 --> 00:44:41,000
Speaker 7: Sure, maybe I'm going to have to meet that father

769
00:44:41,079 --> 00:44:46,320
of mine someday. Like you said, he made some mistakes,

770
00:44:46,480 --> 00:44:49,719
but you didn't figure him all bad.

771
00:44:50,840 --> 00:44:55,159
Speaker 1: Like how you said, he said.

772
00:44:56,880 --> 00:44:58,199
Speaker 7: You can be replaced.

773
00:44:59,119 --> 00:44:59,519
Speaker 2: That was it.

774
00:45:01,159 --> 00:45:07,519
Speaker 7: Well, maybe he was smarter than Bounce of Aspers, considering

775
00:45:07,599 --> 00:45:12,320
who you are and what you are now he has

776
00:45:12,599 --> 00:45:14,320
stumbled on the truth.

777
00:45:19,880 --> 00:45:24,559
Speaker 2: It was an entangled legal web. Lieutenant Roper was tried

778
00:45:24,639 --> 00:45:29,519
for murder and found guilty on an interesting technicality. The

779
00:45:29,639 --> 00:45:33,360
murder gun, which he had recovered, was discovered to have

780
00:45:33,480 --> 00:45:37,400
been wiped clean of any fingerprints, and on this basis

781
00:45:38,000 --> 00:45:41,320
was eventually traced to have been purchased by him.

782
00:45:42,079 --> 00:45:42,800
Speaker 1: The money in the.

783
00:45:42,800 --> 00:45:47,239
Speaker 2: Safe deposit box was identified by the accident of one

784
00:45:47,360 --> 00:45:51,000
bundle of bills as part of a bank robbery, and

785
00:45:51,199 --> 00:45:54,320
was returned to the bank with the reward paid to

786
00:45:54,440 --> 00:45:59,000
bruce Hart. All's well that ends well. How better to

787
00:45:59,159 --> 00:46:17,039
climax a story. I'll be back shortly. As with all

788
00:46:17,199 --> 00:46:22,039
good stories, there is a sequel from the reward and

789
00:46:22,280 --> 00:46:26,719
his conscientious handling of the case, Bruce Hart did establish

790
00:46:26,800 --> 00:46:30,840
a successful and beyond reproach business in a difficult field.

791
00:46:31,800 --> 00:46:36,400
Better than that was a happy marriage that eventually took place,

792
00:46:36,880 --> 00:46:42,719
joining Penelope and Bruce. Fate had decreed that Mario Kococci,

793
00:46:43,280 --> 00:46:48,400
sometime before the marriage died on a lonely island which

794
00:46:48,480 --> 00:46:52,360
no longer exists, a victim of a heart attack. A

795
00:46:52,519 --> 00:46:57,519
cast included Don Scardino, e Edjester, Leon, Jenny, and Jackson Beck.

796
00:46:58,280 --> 00:47:02,880
The entire production was under the direction of Hyman Brown Radio.

797
00:47:03,000 --> 00:47:06,760
Mystery Theater was sponsored in part by Anheuser Busch Incorporated,

798
00:47:07,280 --> 00:47:08,480
Brewers of Budweiser.

799
00:47:09,239 --> 00:47:09,880
Speaker 1: This is E. G.

800
00:47:10,159 --> 00:47:13,920
Speaker 2: Marshall inviting you to return to our Mystery Theater for

801
00:47:14,039 --> 00:47:16,360
another adventure in the macabre.

802
00:47:17,719 --> 00:47:21,920
Speaker 1: Until next time, Pleasant dream.

803
00:47:32,000 --> 00:47:35,920
Speaker 3: The preceding program was furnished by CBS Radio and I

804

Tex And John Connolly says he might run for the

808

presidency on a third party ticket. Holiday traffic death toll

809
00:47:56,679 --> 00:48:00,719
in New York State stands at four. It's fifty degrees

810
00:48:00,800 --> 00:48:03,599

814
00:48:15,440 --> 00:48:17,880
would have been almost certain death for all aboard a

815
00:48:17,920 --> 00:48:22,199
Bahama's air jetliner was averted today when first an airline

816
00:48:22,239 --> 00:48:26,880
employee and then specially trained police dogs found two bombs

817
00:48:26,960 --> 00:48:30,599
aboard a plane at Miami International Airport. No one was

818
00:48:30,719 --> 00:48:33,519
hurt and the bombs were disarmed safely before the plane

819
00:48:33,559 --> 00:48:36,519
eventually made its scheduled flight to Nassau and the Bahamas

820
00:48:37,000 --> 00:48:40,880
with more than forty persons on board. Authority said to

group had selected the Bahamian Airline who as the target

827
00:49:04,159 --> 00:49:08,199
for their bombs currently, according again to the callery, was

828
00:49:08,480 --> 00:49:13,119
in protest over or involved the issue of lobster rights

829
00:49:13,400 --> 00:49:17,800
in the Bahamas. There has been a Cuban exile. Fishermen

had been expelled from the Bahamas by the Bahamas Bahamian
