00:00:28,760 --> 00:00:35,439
Speaker 1: Welcome to the Great Detectives of Old Time Radio from Boise, Idaho.

2
00:00:35,719 --> 00:00:39,439
This is your host, Adam Graham. In a moment, I'm

3
00:00:39,520 --> 00:00:44,600
going to bring you our first listener support and appreciation special.

4
00:00:45,200 --> 00:00:47,679
But first I do want to encourage you, if you

5
00:00:47,799 --> 00:00:51,640

6
00:00:51,799 --> 00:00:57,000

to become one of our Patreon supporters at Patreon dot

8
00:01:01,320 --> 00:01:05,480
Great Detectives dot net or Patreon supporters are such a

9
00:01:05,599 --> 00:01:09,840
vital part of making this podcast work. Truly appreciate it,

10
00:01:10,040 --> 00:01:14,120
and I hope you enjoy this special. And now I've

11
00:01:14,200 --> 00:01:18,599
got to introduce this. I had expected that I would

12
00:01:18,680 --> 00:01:23,000
be doing corrections episodes, but we did those in order

13
00:01:23,120 --> 00:01:28,760
to buy some time to get the Great Adventurers podcast going.

14
00:01:29,239 --> 00:01:31,719
So now I get to do something that I heard

15
00:01:31,879 --> 00:01:34,840
probably a year or so ago, and knew I wanted

16
00:01:34,879 --> 00:01:38,519
to do this and work this in as a special

17
00:01:38,599 --> 00:01:42,239
during one of our listener support campaigns. And it's a

18
00:01:42,319 --> 00:01:45,920
comedy episode, but it's from a comedy that a lot

19
00:01:45,959 --> 00:01:48,840
of people haven't heard about. Now, we've had a bit

20
00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:52,000
of a nostalgia craze in recent years. There have been

21
00:01:52,040 --> 00:01:57,040
revivals of old TV shows and film franchises, things that

22
00:01:57,079 --> 00:02:01,519
have been given more chapters and extensions decades after their

23
00:02:01,640 --> 00:02:06,159
last installments. And there are so many reboots sequels, you know,

24
00:02:06,480 --> 00:02:11,159
you just feel like nothing original is being created. Well,

25
00:02:11,240 --> 00:02:17,039
this tendency is not new at all. MGM radio tractions

26
00:02:17,039 --> 00:02:20,599
in the late nineteen forties and early nineteen fifties tapped

27
00:02:20,639 --> 00:02:25,120
into nostalgia for their earlier works as film stars and

28
00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:30,639
concepts would come into the nineteen fifties in familiar roles.

29
00:02:30,919 --> 00:02:35,400
They brought back Low Airs as Doctor Kildair with Lionel

30
00:02:35,520 --> 00:02:41,319
Barrymore as Doctor Gillespie and Southern as Mazy, a series

31
00:02:41,360 --> 00:02:45,039
of radio programs based on the nineteen thirties Crime does

32
00:02:45,120 --> 00:02:48,960
Not Pay shorts, And they introduced the MGM Theater of

33
00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:53,439
the Air, which adapted many old MGM films of the

34
00:02:53,560 --> 00:02:57,280
nineteen thirties and early nineteen forties to radios.

35
00:02:57,759 --> 00:02:59,080
Speaker 2: And they brought back.

36
00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:02,879
Speaker 1: Mickey Rooney and as Andy Hardy. The Andy Hardy film

37
00:03:02,960 --> 00:03:06,680
series had been big over a five year period from

38
00:03:06,840 --> 00:03:11,560
nineteen thirty seven to nineteen forty two, where thirteen films

39
00:03:11,599 --> 00:03:15,319
were released, with two more films following in nineteen forty

40
00:03:15,319 --> 00:03:20,120
four and nineteen forty six. The Hardy Family radio series

41
00:03:20,159 --> 00:03:24,240
featured Rooney and reunited him with his on screen dad

42
00:03:24,280 --> 00:03:28,159
and mom, Lewis Stone and Fae Holden. The rest of

43
00:03:28,199 --> 00:03:31,319
the Hardy family from the films were absent from this

44
00:03:31,960 --> 00:03:32,960
radio series.

45
00:03:33,240 --> 00:03:34,840
Speaker 2: It's an interesting.

46
00:03:34,319 --> 00:03:38,039
Speaker 1: Series, though I guess episode by episode it's a bit

47
00:03:38,159 --> 00:03:39,879
hit and miss in my opinion.

48
00:03:40,439 --> 00:03:41,719
Speaker 2: However, when I heard.

49
00:03:41,479 --> 00:03:45,199
Speaker 1: Today's episode, I knew I wanted to play it eventually

50
00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:49,639
as a special an appropriate detective themed episode of a

51
00:03:49,759 --> 00:03:55,879
decidedly non detective theme program. Here from April tenth, nineteen

52
00:03:56,000 --> 00:04:00,159
fifty one is the case of the Vanishing warehouse.

53
00:04:01,199 --> 00:04:02,000
Speaker 3: From Honey One.

54
00:04:02,039 --> 00:04:04,439
Speaker 4: Here is Vickey, Rooney, Lewis Stone and they holding in

55
00:04:04,759 --> 00:04:06,159
bah Ardi family.

56
00:04:13,759 --> 00:04:15,800
Speaker 3: That broad present the Hardy Family based on the name

57
00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:18,360
of sdros Rolls the Mamotion picture series which brought the

58
00:04:18,399 --> 00:04:20,800
light the millions and like them common choice and regulations

59
00:04:20,800 --> 00:04:23,160
of the average American family. And now here are the

60
00:04:23,160 --> 00:04:25,519
same gay stars and the marks they created on the screen.

61
00:04:25,839 --> 00:04:28,920
Speaker 5: Lewis Stone, Vickey, Rooney and May holding bah Ardy.

62
00:04:29,040 --> 00:05:10,759
Speaker 6: That way every evening at six o'clock and the Hardy

63
00:05:10,879 --> 00:05:12,920
explodes through the front door of the Hardy hall like

64
00:05:12,959 --> 00:05:15,279
a long range shell, whistles through the living room and

65
00:05:15,319 --> 00:05:17,040
comes to the rest of the dining room table with.

66
00:05:17,120 --> 00:05:17,920
Speaker 5: A burst of black.

67
00:05:18,279 --> 00:05:24,040
Speaker 7: Judge and Ma Hardy call this operation feedback? Uh what

68
00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:25,519
times y'all? Watch?

69
00:05:25,519 --> 00:05:29,000
Speaker 8: Say any five fifty nine reporters?

70
00:05:29,439 --> 00:05:30,800
Speaker 7: Yeah, mind the same.

71
00:05:31,720 --> 00:05:34,920
Speaker 9: Well, Andrew will be hitting the front door in fifteen seconds.

72
00:05:35,199 --> 00:05:36,360
Speaker 10: Shall we run to the cell as a.

73
00:05:36,399 --> 00:05:41,519
Speaker 9: Nike Now, let's stay here and bring it up five

74
00:05:41,600 --> 00:05:53,639
seconds four three, two one zero.

75
00:05:49,759 --> 00:05:53,680
Speaker 11: Woo A direct him.

76
00:05:54,040 --> 00:05:56,800
Speaker 5: You're looking at the protector of people, champion of justice,

77
00:05:57,600 --> 00:06:00,240
fossil of the law, defender of life, and like a

78
00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:00,720
safe thing.

79
00:06:00,839 --> 00:06:04,680
Speaker 12: Oh James, he's mister district attorney.

80
00:06:05,439 --> 00:06:08,000
Speaker 5: Listened there. One of Carvil's biggest outfits just hired me

81
00:06:08,079 --> 00:06:09,920
as a as a private eye.

82
00:06:10,040 --> 00:06:12,680
Speaker 8: Oh dear, why didn't they hire the grist of here?

83
00:06:16,680 --> 00:06:20,040
Speaker 9: It's somewhat unbelievable, but I think Andrew means he has

84
00:06:20,120 --> 00:06:22,040
become that's right.

85
00:06:22,279 --> 00:06:24,959
Speaker 10: Oh now, Andy, couldn't you find a steady job here?

86
00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:26,120
Speaker 7: Steady job, mom?

87
00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:27,879
Speaker 5: This is a steady job now.

88
00:06:27,920 --> 00:06:30,720
Speaker 12: And the eye listened to Sam Stained, Nick Catt and

89
00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:33,480
Neil Wolf on the radio over time and they never

90
00:06:33,560 --> 00:06:35,079
work over half on her e every week.

91
00:06:38,439 --> 00:06:39,879
Speaker 5: Look there in the first place, I'm not going to

92
00:06:39,920 --> 00:06:42,480
be that kind of private eye. I won't exactly solve

93
00:06:42,480 --> 00:06:45,279
any cases, you see, I'll try to smell out the

94
00:06:45,279 --> 00:06:46,360
crime before it happens.

95
00:06:46,639 --> 00:06:49,519
Speaker 7: Oh, I see, you'll be more of a private nose.

96
00:06:51,319 --> 00:06:53,000
Speaker 5: No, Dad, Look, I'm going to work for the Carvel

97
00:06:53,079 --> 00:06:57,000
Union warehouse as a night guard. A night gard Yeah,

98
00:06:57,040 --> 00:06:59,079
I walked to the warehouse with a flashlight and gun

99
00:06:59,079 --> 00:07:01,160
and look around and see if everything is all right.

100
00:07:01,240 --> 00:07:03,600
Speaker 7: Oh, you mean you're really a private looker.

101
00:07:04,399 --> 00:07:06,279
Speaker 5: I only look around every hour. The rest of the time,

102
00:07:06,319 --> 00:07:08,240
I just sort of sit in the office, that's all. Oh.

103
00:07:08,480 --> 00:07:14,720
Speaker 12: Now, I understand you're a private city.

104
00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:15,279
Speaker 5: Right guys. You folks make jokes, and I thought you'd

105
00:07:15,319 --> 00:07:16,319
be so proud of me.

106
00:07:17,160 --> 00:07:21,639
Speaker 7: Yes, please, very pleased indeed. But after all, Oh, you're

107
00:07:21,639 --> 00:07:22,800
only a night watchman.

108
00:07:23,160 --> 00:07:26,560
Speaker 5: Only a night watchman, only a night watchman. Dad, You

109
00:07:26,600 --> 00:07:28,319
are hear of the case of the two million dollar

110
00:07:28,360 --> 00:07:32,879
warehouse for robbery. I don't recall that single handed night

111
00:07:32,920 --> 00:07:35,959
watchman John Henderson captured eight crooks in their armored car.

112
00:07:36,360 --> 00:07:38,920
Armored car, and he only had a flashlight and a measly.

113
00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:42,040
Speaker 7: Little pen knife for him When did this happen.

114
00:07:42,279 --> 00:07:45,959
Speaker 5: The last issue of Ghastly Detective Story.

115
00:07:46,480 --> 00:07:50,040
Speaker 9: Oh yeah, you really feel that you have the qualification

116
00:07:50,160 --> 00:07:51,439
to hold down a job like this?

117
00:07:51,600 --> 00:07:53,600
Speaker 5: Certainly I do. Certainly no criminal is a match for

118
00:07:53,720 --> 00:07:56,399
me with this trusty cannon at my side and this

119
00:07:56,560 --> 00:08:03,759
brilliant head on my shoulders.

120
00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:04,720
Speaker 7: What worries me?

121
00:08:05,399 --> 00:08:06,560
Speaker 5: What do you mean, Dades?

122
00:08:06,680 --> 00:08:09,720
Speaker 9: I can jessee the headline some morning night watch him

123
00:08:09,759 --> 00:08:13,560
and Andrew Hardy fires are fleeing crooks with trusty cannon,

124
00:08:14,199 --> 00:08:17,639
missus which hold through all brilliant head.

125
00:08:19,959 --> 00:08:21,639
Speaker 10: Oh my, isn't that exciting?

126
00:08:24,480 --> 00:08:24,759
Speaker 7: Jeeves?

127
00:08:24,920 --> 00:08:27,160
Speaker 10: Just imagine Andy having his name in the papers.

128
00:08:27,879 --> 00:08:29,639
Speaker 9: Well son, I wish all luck in the world, and

129
00:08:29,639 --> 00:08:31,120
it's spine tingling new job.

130
00:08:31,160 --> 00:08:32,440
Speaker 5: I'll thank you, Dad, Thank you, sir.

131
00:08:32,519 --> 00:08:36,799
Speaker 7: Tell me when you stop at midnight this very night.

132
00:08:37,600 --> 00:08:41,159
Speaker 5: I don't suppose you gett to come down somenight. What's

133
00:08:41,240 --> 00:08:42,440
the changing of the gods?

134
00:08:42,679 --> 00:08:43,960
Speaker 7: That might be very interesting.

135
00:08:44,120 --> 00:08:45,639
Speaker 5: I just hope you don't arrive in the middle of

136
00:08:45,679 --> 00:08:46,960
some blazing gun play.

137
00:08:47,080 --> 00:08:47,519
Speaker 13: That's all.

138
00:08:47,720 --> 00:08:50,679
Speaker 7: But in the world is stored in the place nothing.

139
00:08:50,879 --> 00:08:51,960
Speaker 5: It's been empty for a week?

140
00:09:17,720 --> 00:09:17,919
Speaker 13: Dy?

141
00:09:18,600 --> 00:09:19,000
Speaker 7: What was that?

142
00:09:20,799 --> 00:09:21,039
Speaker 5: Fuck?

143
00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:22,000
Speaker 2: Just struck?

144
00:09:22,039 --> 00:09:22,600
Speaker 5: Three? Reason?

145
00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:24,240
Speaker 11: No, no, I mean the other sound.

146
00:09:25,759 --> 00:09:28,000
Speaker 5: Ok, it's the soul warehouse. That's all just creaks a

147
00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:29,679
little at night. That's all just creaks a little.

148
00:09:30,039 --> 00:09:31,679
Speaker 11: This place should get a staying job with a couple

149
00:09:31,759 --> 00:09:33,320
of vampires.

150
00:09:32,799 --> 00:09:35,919
Speaker 5: And relax when you please, relax. The eye is here

151
00:09:35,919 --> 00:09:38,840
to protect you. I'm glad you came down and sick

152
00:09:38,919 --> 00:09:40,039
with me on my first night too.

153
00:09:40,120 --> 00:09:40,279
Speaker 7: Kid.

154
00:09:40,480 --> 00:09:42,960
Speaker 11: Yeah, it's been real keen fun. You like to sit

155
00:09:43,080 --> 00:09:43,919
in graveyards.

156
00:09:45,360 --> 00:09:49,840
Speaker 5: Keep talking helps me stay awake, boy, stay awake.

157
00:09:50,639 --> 00:09:52,440
Speaker 11: Oh my gosh, I thought you said you were worried

158
00:09:52,440 --> 00:09:53,279
about sleeping.

159
00:09:53,519 --> 00:09:55,759
Speaker 5: I am, I am. I can't go to sleep on

160
00:09:55,840 --> 00:09:56,240
this job.

161
00:09:57,279 --> 00:09:59,480
Speaker 11: I thought you meant you wanted to go to sleep.

162
00:10:02,200 --> 00:10:06,519
Speaker 5: I'm going to go to sleep. Want to beg What

163
00:10:06,559 --> 00:10:06,960
do you mean?

164
00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:08,639
Speaker 11: You know that coffee I wanted to get you a

165
00:10:08,679 --> 00:10:14,120
few minutes ago. Yeah, three sleeping pills in it.

166
00:10:16,399 --> 00:10:17,360
Speaker 5: That's very nice.

167
00:10:18,320 --> 00:10:19,039
Speaker 13: You not him?

168
00:10:19,759 --> 00:10:21,799
Speaker 5: Look pezy, do something? Slap you knock me around and

169
00:10:21,879 --> 00:10:22,600

287
00:17:57,440 --> 00:17:59,559
you know, it just seems this spear around here, just

288
00:17:59,680 --> 00:18:03,519
like bombing Floyd, never can keep en nothing bombing Floyd

289
00:18:03,559 --> 00:18:03,720

294
00:18:15,799 --> 00:18:17,599
Speaker 5: Look you you don't seem to understand I'm faced with

295
00:18:17,640 --> 00:18:19,119
a terrific baffling mystery.

296
00:18:19,240 --> 00:18:22,519
Speaker 7: And there was no mystery. You know now that the

297
00:18:22,559 --> 00:18:23,880
warehouse wasn't stolen.

298
00:18:24,000 --> 00:18:26,720
Speaker 5: Oh that's not the point I was.

299
00:18:29,160 --> 00:18:34,480
Speaker 8: There's nothing to worry about. You found yourself, darling.

300
00:18:34,559 --> 00:18:36,440
Speaker 5: You don't understand. Somebody must have carried me out of

301
00:18:36,480 --> 00:18:38,880
that warehouse and put me in that bacon lot. It's

302
00:18:39,039 --> 00:18:41,880
obvious somebody was trying to get me out of the way.

303
00:18:42,160 --> 00:18:47,880
Speaker 9: Really, like say, pretty obviously said me, succeeded, dragged me out,

304
00:18:47,920 --> 00:18:48,359
threw me the.

305
00:18:48,400 --> 00:18:51,200

306
00:18:51,279 --> 00:18:51,440
Speaker 10: Yeah.

307
00:18:52,559 --> 00:18:55,200
Speaker 5: I bet they were surprised and found it empty. They

308
00:18:55,319 --> 00:19:00,119
probably miscalculated a big consignment just came into day. What

309
00:19:00,160 --> 00:19:03,000
they were after, they didn't get it it's all clear now,

310
00:19:03,039 --> 00:19:05,519

311
00:19:05,559 --> 00:19:07,240
get someone to come to the warehouse with me tonight.

312
00:19:08,359 --> 00:19:09,519

00:19:53,079 --> 00:19:53,960
and blanket out of the bacon.

335
00:19:54,000 --> 00:20:10,920
Speaker 13: Lott gets pretty cold out there, my dad.

336
00:20:11,480 --> 00:20:12,720
Speaker 5: The case is all wrapped up.

337
00:20:13,480 --> 00:20:16,599
Speaker 7: Yes, Andrew, you mean that you mastered the mystery already.

338
00:20:16,880 --> 00:20:18,119
Speaker 5: I don't und it around with the thing when I

339
00:20:18,160 --> 00:20:18,519
really go to.

340
00:20:18,519 --> 00:20:19,000
Speaker 13: Work on a dad.

341
00:20:19,039 --> 00:20:21,279
Speaker 8: Believe me, I think that's wonderful. How did you manage it?

342
00:20:21,359 --> 00:20:21,920
Speaker 13: The sit out of it?

343
00:20:22,079 --> 00:20:23,640
Speaker 5: While I just take my report on the case of

344
00:20:23,680 --> 00:20:27,160
the vanishing warehouse? Yeah, certainly a private eye always makes

345
00:20:27,160 --> 00:20:27,720
out a report.

346
00:20:28,000 --> 00:20:30,200
Speaker 7: Oh can you take shorthand? Emily?

347
00:20:30,680 --> 00:20:32,279
Speaker 10: Oh no, do you can?

348
00:20:32,319 --> 00:20:33,240
Speaker 5: You? No?

349
00:20:33,920 --> 00:20:33,960
Speaker 13: Not?

350
00:20:34,640 --> 00:20:34,680
Speaker 5: What?

351
00:20:34,880 --> 00:20:36,880
Speaker 10: Maybe then you could speak in shorthand? I could take

352
00:20:36,880 --> 00:20:37,680
it down in long hand.

353
00:20:39,440 --> 00:20:41,359
Speaker 5: Never might, Mom, I'll give you the report anyway.

354
00:20:42,240 --> 00:20:42,680
Speaker 7: That's good.

355
00:20:42,759 --> 00:20:45,519
Speaker 5: Now, let's have it it Rolet, investigate Andrew Honey lies

356
00:20:45,640 --> 00:20:49,279
number four six one, five, three, four, eight, five two

357
00:20:49,319 --> 00:20:51,839
six five three one five ninety seven.

358
00:20:51,720 --> 00:20:57,759
Speaker 7: Dash okay nine ten Jack queen cake. That sounds like

359
00:20:57,880 --> 00:20:59,319
the road call it Sam Quinton.

360
00:21:00,960 --> 00:21:02,559
Speaker 5: Well, I was, as I was about to say, I

361
00:21:02,839 --> 00:21:04,559
left the house here and started for a polly Bee.

362
00:21:04,839 --> 00:21:07,359
Speaker 10: Oh jeans, isn't that a Nick Saggy report?

363
00:21:09,839 --> 00:21:12,480
Speaker 5: Darling, sweetheart, I'm just starting out on the report.

364
00:21:12,640 --> 00:21:13,759
Speaker 9: Oh, I'm sorry.

365
00:21:14,839 --> 00:21:17,079
Speaker 5: I was in a completely new world outside our house.

366
00:21:18,839 --> 00:21:21,319
It was entirely different from being inside the house.

367
00:21:22,480 --> 00:21:23,680
Speaker 10: Jeeves. Isn't it weird?

368
00:21:24,079 --> 00:21:25,400
Speaker 7: That's positively smoking.

369
00:21:30,400 --> 00:21:33,000
Speaker 5: That's fog that wrapped around me like a blanket. Fog.

370
00:21:33,839 --> 00:21:36,119
Speaker 10: Oh James, this always a fog.

371
00:21:36,240 --> 00:21:40,519
Speaker 5: Somewhere out of that pie souper mournful boat whistle sounded woo.

372
00:21:43,960 --> 00:21:45,960
Speaker 13: Yeah, it was spine chaly.

373
00:21:46,519 --> 00:21:48,200
Speaker 9: I imagine wise when you can say that there is

374
00:21:48,319 --> 00:21:50,160
any water within two hundred miles from there.

375
00:21:54,160 --> 00:21:56,920
Speaker 5: Hoping blindly, I found my way to Polly's house. Rang

376
00:21:57,000 --> 00:22:01,400
the doorbell, set, door opened. I'll never forget the shock

377
00:22:01,480 --> 00:22:03,440
I got at that moment. It was a short circuit

378
00:22:03,440 --> 00:22:03,880
of the doorbell.

379
00:22:07,000 --> 00:22:10,079
Speaker 9: Standing in the door, it was who do you suppose?

380
00:22:10,440 --> 00:22:16,559
And then she Christopher Columbus. I don't know, Dulia.

381
00:22:16,960 --> 00:22:17,559
Speaker 5: It was Polly.

382
00:22:19,839 --> 00:22:25,440
Speaker 9: Unbelievable, Yes, Polly. Imagine Polly Benedict. Being at Polly Benedict's house.

383
00:22:26,359 --> 00:22:27,000
Speaker 8: A man.

384
00:22:32,359 --> 00:22:35,279
Speaker 5: Was beautiful, so happy, gay, and a lie with living.

385
00:22:35,839 --> 00:22:37,599
I felt like I was defacing a beautiful painting. But

386
00:22:37,640 --> 00:22:39,519
I had to tell her I was on a mission

387
00:22:39,559 --> 00:22:42,000
of danger. Death might be looking just around every corner.

388
00:22:42,519 --> 00:22:45,599
I don't forget how she smiled bravely and said it.

389
00:22:45,720 --> 00:22:46,880
Speaker 13: Was so sweetly to me.

390
00:22:47,359 --> 00:22:49,519
Speaker 10: Honestly, Andy, I think you're a screwball.

391
00:22:53,240 --> 00:22:57,359
Speaker 5: Look look, sweetheart, I'm in the sting deep up to

392
00:22:57,480 --> 00:22:57,880
my neck.

393
00:22:58,039 --> 00:23:00,559
Speaker 11: Understand well, that certainly is very deep.

394
00:23:00,680 --> 00:23:06,200
Speaker 5: Listen, shweet God, we gotta move, We gotta move fast.

395
00:23:07,119 --> 00:23:08,720
You want to work on this case with me or not?

396
00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:09,880
Speaker 10: Well, what do you want me to do?

397
00:23:10,039 --> 00:23:11,559
Speaker 5: Just hide behind the door of the warehouse office for

398
00:23:11,599 --> 00:23:12,400
a few hours, that's all.

399
00:23:12,519 --> 00:23:13,200
Speaker 8: A few hours.

400
00:23:13,279 --> 00:23:16,240
Speaker 5: If you're a Roscoe, ready for action, Rosco, your gat woman,

401
00:23:16,359 --> 00:23:18,680
your gat. Oh, when the crooks come in the room,

402
00:23:19,240 --> 00:23:21,720
you jump on them from behind, and it's all over.

403
00:23:22,039 --> 00:23:23,359
Speaker 11: You mean, I'm all over.

404
00:23:24,240 --> 00:23:26,599
Speaker 5: It's a cinch. I gotta figure right down to the second.

405
00:23:26,759 --> 00:23:28,720
Speaker 11: And what will you be doing all this time?

406
00:23:29,079 --> 00:23:41,839
Speaker 5: My little lady will be sleeping at the desk. Put

407
00:23:41,880 --> 00:23:43,519
a coat over the solid gold eaving goune and we

408
00:23:43,599 --> 00:23:45,599
hurried out to my car. I turned the key in

409
00:23:45,599 --> 00:23:47,400
the ignition step on the start and felt the surge

410
00:23:47,400 --> 00:23:49,240
of smooth power. There was the motor cut and we

411
00:23:49,279 --> 00:23:55,720
glided quietly into the fog. In a few minutes, we

412
00:23:55,839 --> 00:24:02,839
pulled up in front of the old warehouse. Definitely quiet, sweethearts.

413
00:24:03,519 --> 00:24:06,279
Nothing seemed to move, Sweethearts, but it was very still.

414
00:24:06,319 --> 00:24:07,519
Anonymous sweethearts.

415
00:24:08,640 --> 00:24:09,039
Speaker 3: This was it.

416
00:24:09,759 --> 00:24:10,440
Speaker 13: It was now and ever.

417
00:24:10,519 --> 00:24:12,440
Speaker 5: If the crooks came back to night and I caught him,

418
00:24:12,480 --> 00:24:13,680
the case would be solved forever.

419
00:24:14,160 --> 00:24:15,160
Speaker 8: The case would be cracked.

420
00:24:15,200 --> 00:24:16,920
Speaker 11: Dear, Yeah, yeah, cracked.

421
00:24:17,839 --> 00:24:19,519
Speaker 7: I completely agree with the cracked idea.

422
00:24:23,680 --> 00:24:25,839
Speaker 5: There's the way I figured it. If I didn't catch

423
00:24:25,880 --> 00:24:27,519
the crooks, I only had two things to worry about.

424
00:24:27,799 --> 00:24:30,319
Either they'd never come back, or they'd try again next month.

425
00:24:30,519 --> 00:24:31,920
If they didn't come back, I had nothing to worry

426
00:24:31,920 --> 00:24:33,480
about it. If they did come back, I'd try to

427
00:24:33,519 --> 00:24:35,119
catch them. If I caught them in the case to

428
00:24:35,200 --> 00:24:36,880
be cracked. If I didn't catch them, I only had

429
00:24:36,880 --> 00:24:38,880
two things to worry about. Either they'd never come back,

430
00:24:39,039 --> 00:24:40,960
or they'd come back next month, or.

431
00:24:48,160 --> 00:24:50,160
Speaker 7: Just let me know when you get to October, my

432
00:24:50,319 --> 00:24:51,279
vacation comes up.

433
00:24:51,359 --> 00:25:01,799
Speaker 5: Then we approached the door of said warehouse office, just midnight,

434
00:25:02,160 --> 00:25:03,960
time for me to report on the job. If the

435
00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:06,559
thieves were going to strike, it to be soon. Then

436
00:25:06,599 --> 00:25:11,119
I saw him. Every muscle in my body froze, the

437
00:25:11,160 --> 00:25:12,720
back of my neck crept up toward the top of

438
00:25:12,799 --> 00:25:13,119
my head.

439
00:25:13,519 --> 00:25:15,640
Speaker 8: And didn't that push your head out over.

440
00:25:15,640 --> 00:25:16,319
Speaker 10: Your arms.

441
00:25:20,039 --> 00:25:22,759
Speaker 5: And will take a short cut. Who wants the man,

442
00:25:22,960 --> 00:25:25,640
Oh oh, the man, the other night watchman. He was

443
00:25:25,759 --> 00:25:26,440
just going home.

444
00:25:27,880 --> 00:25:30,160
Speaker 7: He had a close car. I almost shot him myself.

445
00:25:30,920 --> 00:25:33,279
Speaker 5: Then Holly and I headed for the warehouse office.

446
00:25:37,720 --> 00:25:39,839
Speaker 10: Andy, Handy, don't cross the sidewalk.

447
00:25:40,079 --> 00:25:42,680
Speaker 11: I have a feeling something horrible, something and natural is

448
00:25:42,720 --> 00:25:43,680
waiting there in the dark.

449
00:25:43,839 --> 00:25:46,319
Speaker 5: Sweett, we can't turn back now, it's.

450
00:25:46,160 --> 00:25:47,279
Speaker 3: It or us.

451
00:25:47,640 --> 00:25:50,359
Speaker 11: Hay, please please don't go that way.

452
00:25:52,880 --> 00:25:55,839
Speaker 5: I laughed at the foolish child. I thought you were

453
00:25:55,880 --> 00:26:02,359
simply hysterical. Then then then it happened. I must have

454
00:26:02,440 --> 00:26:08,720
fallen two miles down that man hole. My whole life

455
00:26:08,799 --> 00:26:11,920
passed before my eyes. You know what. It's like a

456
00:26:12,039 --> 00:26:15,680
wonderful technical picture too. Finally I get.

457
00:26:15,599 --> 00:26:24,599
Speaker 8: Bottom with a thought, and then I was being lifted on.

458
00:26:24,640 --> 00:26:27,400
Speaker 5: A peppermint stick. Giant candid cameras flew past, popping their

459
00:26:27,440 --> 00:26:29,519
fish bolbs and clicking the shutters up and up. I

460
00:26:29,559 --> 00:26:31,200
went into a raspberry geleas and sky, and then I

461
00:26:31,240 --> 00:26:34,079
saw it. I saw it, my little pink Cutton cloud

462
00:26:34,160 --> 00:26:37,200
number six and seven eighths, and that horrible, grinning little

463
00:26:37,319 --> 00:26:44,680
man was there laughing. I loathed him, that monster, that monster,

464
00:26:45,519 --> 00:26:47,640
my alter ego. Do you.

465
00:26:50,640 --> 00:26:55,720
Speaker 12: Alter ego, I don't understand this part of it, and

466
00:26:55,880 --> 00:26:57,880
here't come back me, little pink cloud, and kind of

467
00:26:57,960 --> 00:26:59,359
out of that man, my.

468
00:26:59,440 --> 00:27:01,960
Speaker 5: Head was a million stars were exploding all around me,

469
00:27:02,240 --> 00:27:04,279
and that fenish little gnome kept laughing.

470
00:27:09,279 --> 00:27:10,279
Speaker 8: Jesus, isn't that funny?

471
00:27:13,440 --> 00:27:15,480
Speaker 5: Suddenly I crashed back to Earth.

472
00:27:23,799 --> 00:27:24,079
Speaker 8: Fast.

473
00:27:24,720 --> 00:27:26,000
Speaker 11: You'll get the bins.

474
00:27:28,359 --> 00:27:30,960
Speaker 5: Mind that said man. The whole solution, the mystery came

475
00:27:31,000 --> 00:27:32,359
to me in just a flash.

476
00:27:32,920 --> 00:27:35,480
Speaker 7: Fine, that's fine. I mean we have it in a flash.

477
00:27:35,640 --> 00:27:39,240
Speaker 5: Also, period and the report period dash and mcolon period

478
00:27:39,279 --> 00:27:40,519
stopped and the report.

479
00:27:40,400 --> 00:27:43,559
Speaker 7: And the report. I haven't solved anything.

480
00:27:43,319 --> 00:27:46,200
Speaker 5: Yet, certainly I did. I washed the case up in

481
00:27:46,279 --> 00:27:46,839
two minutes.

482
00:27:46,960 --> 00:27:50,160
Speaker 8: But heard here but how easy.

483
00:27:50,240 --> 00:27:52,759
Speaker 5: I just walked up to the boss this morning and quit.

484
00:28:07,440 --> 00:28:09,440
I'm over the Hardy family rule dirt.

485
00:28:34,839 --> 00:28:37,000
Speaker 7: Now here again is the Hardy family.

486
00:28:38,000 --> 00:28:38,160
Speaker 9: Dad.

487
00:28:38,160 --> 00:28:39,359
Speaker 5: What would you say if I told you I was

488
00:28:39,400 --> 00:28:41,119
going into a sensational new business.

489
00:28:41,400 --> 00:28:42,599
Speaker 7: I wouldn't say a word.

490
00:28:42,680 --> 00:28:45,920
Speaker 8: I speak, Yes, Andy, you've got another job already.

491
00:28:46,000 --> 00:28:47,359
Speaker 5: I ran into a guy who's planning to open a

492
00:28:47,400 --> 00:28:49,039
new office in Carver. He gave me his phone number

493
00:28:49,079 --> 00:28:50,200
and told me to call him this evening.

494
00:28:50,319 --> 00:28:52,920
Speaker 9: Well, that little venture. Are you interested in this time

495
00:28:53,599 --> 00:29:01,079
Swiss out climbing? No, No, that's us outliming that this

496
00:29:01,240 --> 00:29:02,680
job is just tailor.

497
00:29:02,440 --> 00:29:02,920
Speaker 13: Made for me.

498
00:29:03,279 --> 00:29:03,440
Speaker 9: I was.

499
00:29:03,480 --> 00:29:04,079
Speaker 2: I recall it.

500
00:29:04,119 --> 00:29:06,279
Speaker 7: You were just perfect for that night watchman's job too.

501
00:29:06,880 --> 00:29:08,680
Speaker 5: That wasn't right for me. I know, I know good

502
00:29:08,680 --> 00:29:11,799
at garden things, I'm better at losing things.

503
00:29:12,240 --> 00:29:13,440
Speaker 8: Yeah, that's right.

00:29:13,480 --> 00:29:15,319
Speaker 10: He accuse you man that just last week he left

00:29:15,359 --> 00:29:16,640
his watch his wallet.

506
00:29:16,920 --> 00:29:19,359
Speaker 5: That's right. So I'm going into the losing business.

507
00:29:19,920 --> 00:29:20,720
Speaker 7: Losing business.

508
00:29:20,759 --> 00:29:23,200
Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm gonna sell photo policies for an insurance company.

509
00:29:23,599 --> 00:29:24,839
You know, we pay off if you do.

510
00:29:24,880 --> 00:29:27,200
Speaker 8: You have to lose something, Well, that sounds wonderful for you.

511
00:29:27,319 --> 00:29:28,799
Speaker 7: Does sound like work?

512
00:29:28,880 --> 00:29:29,000
Speaker 9: More?

513
00:29:29,039 --> 00:29:30,119
Speaker 7: Shoot at your talents?

514
00:29:30,200 --> 00:29:31,720
Speaker 5: I mean you were to call a man right away,

515
00:29:31,920 --> 00:29:34,480
I would, except for one thing, watch that I lost

516
00:29:34,519 --> 00:29:35,160
his phone number?

517
00:29:55,680 --> 00:29:56,039
Speaker 14: Bad way.

518
00:29:56,119 --> 00:29:58,559
Speaker 4: Sorry is calling Vicky Rooney and Mayhold and based on

519
00:29:58,680 --> 00:30:02,680
characters created by Already, This program was written by Jameson Brewer.

520
00:30:02,799 --> 00:30:05,920
Speaker 7: Direction is by Joe Diggelone. Original music Mister Bo's been

521
00:30:05,960 --> 00:30:07,119
conducted by Jerry Fielding.

522
00:30:07,400 --> 00:30:09,759
Speaker 3: Supporting cast included Eleanora Di Creta.

523
00:30:09,880 --> 00:30:11,119
Speaker 5: We gonna need some Jerry hows.

524
00:30:12,079 --> 00:30:36,079
Speaker 2: Speaking welcome back. This was so funny.

525
00:30:36,880 --> 00:30:40,559
Speaker 1: So many great detective shows were parodied. Sam Spade and

526
00:30:40,759 --> 00:30:46,359
Rogues Gallery were prominent, but they just did some general

527
00:30:46,519 --> 00:30:50,799
parodies of genre conventions in general. I thought the manhole

528
00:30:51,039 --> 00:30:55,640
cover bit was hilarious. And there's a wonderful balance of

529
00:30:55,839 --> 00:30:59,480
Mickey Rooney giving this over the top manic energy and

530
00:30:59,640 --> 00:31:03,240
Lewis Stone and fey Holden just coming up with these

531
00:31:03,880 --> 00:31:07,680
great lines that are delivered so matter of factly and

532
00:31:08,680 --> 00:31:10,000
in such a relaxed way.

533
00:31:10,079 --> 00:31:11,079
Speaker 2: And I thought fey.

534
00:31:10,960 --> 00:31:14,440
Speaker 1: Holden had just the best lines here. I laughed a

535
00:31:14,480 --> 00:31:16,799
lot at this, and I hope you enjoyed it as well,

536
00:31:16,960 --> 00:31:18,039
because this was a lot of.

537
00:31:18,119 --> 00:31:18,680
Speaker 2: Fun for me.

538
00:31:19,359 --> 00:31:23,400
Speaker 1: Now, I will note that the Andy Hardy film series

539
00:31:23,559 --> 00:31:28,400
did actually continue. There was a final installment in nineteen

540
00:31:28,559 --> 00:31:32,240
fifty eight, by which time Lewis Stone had passed away,

541
00:31:32,920 --> 00:31:37,400
so this wasn't quite the last guest for Andy Hardy,

542
00:31:37,559 --> 00:31:41,160
just pretty close, all right. Well, now it's time to

00:32:23,160 --> 00:32:25,319
Speaker 14: Well, no, this ain't no place to talk. I am.

557
00:32:25,680 --> 00:32:27,720
I got a brand new nash around the corner, and.

558
00:32:27,880 --> 00:32:30,160
Speaker 5: You can say anything you've got to right here.

559
00:32:31,119 --> 00:32:33,480
Speaker 14: Well, it's kind of embarrassing, Sheila. I don't like to

560
00:32:33,559 --> 00:32:35,359
be seeing taking money from a woman.

561
00:32:35,200 --> 00:32:37,880
Speaker 5: In a public thoroughfare. What are you talking about?

562
00:32:38,039 --> 00:32:40,759
Speaker 14: Well, naturally, you can't expect me to divulge this kind

563
00:32:40,799 --> 00:32:41,880
of information for free.

564
00:32:42,680 --> 00:32:44,920
Speaker 8: You're absolutely right, mister Pulaski.

565
00:32:45,279 --> 00:32:47,519
Speaker 5: So you keep your information and I'll keep my money.

566
00:32:47,720 --> 00:32:49,160
Speaker 7: No, wait a minute, I'm not interested.

567
00:32:49,200 --> 00:32:50,359
Speaker 8: Well, let's really concerns you.

568
00:32:50,640 --> 00:32:51,839
Speaker 5: I doubt it that.

569
00:32:52,119 --> 00:32:54,559
Speaker 14: It looks like I ain't going to make a book

570
00:32:54,559 --> 00:32:55,359
from the back of family.

571
00:32:55,440 --> 00:32:55,480
Speaker 5: No.

572
00:32:55,599 --> 00:32:56,599
Speaker 9: How, but.

573
00:32:58,079 --> 00:33:00,480
Speaker 5: I like you better than I do your husband. Thanks.

574
00:33:00,559 --> 00:33:02,920
Speaker 14: I mean it if I were you, Sheila, I'd watch

575
00:33:03,000 --> 00:33:03,720
my step.

576
00:33:03,759 --> 00:33:04,799
Speaker 7: Larry's checking up on you.

577
00:33:05,599 --> 00:33:06,079
Speaker 13: What do you mean?

578
00:33:06,160 --> 00:33:06,799
Speaker 5: That's what I said.

579
00:33:07,599 --> 00:33:09,240
Speaker 14: As a matter of fact, I did a little checking

580
00:33:09,319 --> 00:33:09,960
on you myself.

581
00:33:10,160 --> 00:33:11,440
Speaker 5: Why take it easy?

582
00:33:12,839 --> 00:33:14,640
Speaker 14: As far as I can learn, you never want stepped

583
00:33:14,640 --> 00:33:16,960
out of line? So what's the matter with that.

584
00:33:17,039 --> 00:33:17,599
Speaker 2: Husband of yours?

585
00:33:17,599 --> 00:33:17,920
Speaker 14: Anyway?

586
00:33:17,920 --> 00:33:20,160
Speaker 5: He must be out of his mine. You may be right.

587
00:33:20,480 --> 00:33:22,079
Speaker 14: If I was you and me, I'd never put up

588
00:33:22,119 --> 00:33:22,319
with it.

589
00:33:22,880 --> 00:33:25,279
Speaker 1: I hope you'll be with us then in the meantime,
