00:00:16,359 --> 00:00:31,640
Speaker 1: The Blue Beetles, weeping down upon the underworld is smashed.

2
00:00:31,679 --> 00:00:35,799
Ganglan comes a friend of the unfortunate enemy of criminals,

3
00:00:36,600 --> 00:00:40,679
the mysterious all powerful character a problem to the police,

4
00:00:41,399 --> 00:00:43,759
but a brue said of a law In reality. Dan

5
00:00:43,880 --> 00:00:47,119
Garrett a rookie performer, loved by everyone but suspected by

6
00:00:47,200 --> 00:00:49,000
none of being the Blue People.

7
00:00:49,960 --> 00:00:50,799
Speaker 2: As the Blue Beetle.

8
00:00:50,840 --> 00:00:52,799
Speaker 1: He hides behind the strange mask in a suit of

9
00:00:52,840 --> 00:00:57,039
inteetrable blue chain armor, flexibles silk but stronger than still.

10
00:01:09,200 --> 00:01:13,359
Today's episode of The Blue Beetle is untitled The Invisible Ghost.

11
00:01:14,040 --> 00:01:16,480
The Roman Dan Garrett, who in secret operates as the

12
00:01:16,480 --> 00:01:19,719
Blue Beetle, today, matches brains and drawn with a commonly

13
00:01:19,799 --> 00:01:23,599
ruthless gang of crooked slot machine racketeers. Canny spiked their

14
00:01:23,640 --> 00:01:26,799
plans to flood the city with crooked gambling devices. We'll

15
00:01:26,879 --> 00:01:28,719
be able to uncover the mysterious.

16
00:01:28,319 --> 00:01:29,920
Speaker 3: Leader who directs their activities.

17
00:01:30,519 --> 00:01:32,959
Speaker 1: What is behind our endeavor to install our machine, the

18
00:01:33,040 --> 00:01:36,799
John Dora's Carnival. As our story opens, the Troman Dan

19
00:01:36,879 --> 00:01:41,439
Garrett is visiting his old friend and adviser, doctor Plan Danny.

20
00:01:41,640 --> 00:01:44,719
I've been studying up on slot machines. Yes, you find

21
00:01:44,719 --> 00:01:48,000
out anything interesting. Well, I'm convinced that the difference between

22
00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:50,840
an honest machine and a dishonest or crooked machine is

23
00:01:50,920 --> 00:01:54,599
very slight. In fact, i'd say the difference was purely academic.

24
00:01:54,760 --> 00:01:57,280
What do you mean, Doc, Of course you realize I'm

25
00:01:57,319 --> 00:02:00,319
referring now to nickel and dime or quarter in the

26
00:02:00,319 --> 00:02:02,799
slot machines from which you'll return if any will be

27
00:02:02,840 --> 00:02:05,760
a handful of coin. Yeah. That doesn't include vending machines

28
00:02:05,760 --> 00:02:08,719
for candy chewing, gum cigarettes centre. Oh no, no, of

29
00:02:08,759 --> 00:02:11,599
course not. I'm speaking about those machines where you put

30
00:02:11,599 --> 00:02:13,800
a coin in the slot, push down the lever, and

31
00:02:13,879 --> 00:02:17,159
pictures of fruits or birds or playing guards whirl around

32
00:02:17,360 --> 00:02:20,479
and stop in different combination. Yeah, I understand. Well, if

33
00:02:20,919 --> 00:02:23,879
certain combinations come up, a certain number of coins will

34
00:02:23,919 --> 00:02:26,639
be returned to you. Sometimes as many as thirty may

35
00:02:26,639 --> 00:02:29,759
come out. That's called a a jackpart. Yeah, I know.

36
00:02:30,199 --> 00:02:31,280
Speaker 3: Have they double a board in the.

37
00:02:31,280 --> 00:02:33,960
Speaker 1: Forest play the machines in Charlie Tagata and uh, how

38
00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:36,960
often do they hit the jackpot? I don't know, not often,

39
00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:40,000
I'm sure precisely those machines are fixed in advance to

40
00:02:40,039 --> 00:02:44,560
release a jackpot. Ev once every thousand, five thousand, ten thousand, yes,

41
00:02:45,039 --> 00:02:48,560
even every hundred thousand times. In other words, if you

42
00:02:48,599 --> 00:02:50,919
were the only one playing a machine, you would have

43
00:02:50,960 --> 00:02:53,400
to put in one thousand or more coins before you'd

44
00:02:53,400 --> 00:02:56,319
win a jackpot a nickel a piece. That's fifty dollars.

45
00:02:56,319 --> 00:02:58,960
Fifty dollars to win two dollars. All right, there must

46
00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:01,439
be an all of profit to those machines. Yes, yes,

47
00:03:01,479 --> 00:03:04,919
there is. Now. Now, let's suppose the machines these racketeers

48
00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:08,719
are trying to install are reasonably honest, say one thousand

49
00:03:08,719 --> 00:03:11,479
to one, which is average. Yeah, in a place like

50
00:03:11,560 --> 00:03:15,039
John Dore's carnival, each machine should average two thousand players

51
00:03:15,039 --> 00:03:18,120
a day. Let's say ten machines were installed throughout the

52
00:03:18,159 --> 00:03:21,039
area or that conservative? Yes, yes, I know, but let's

53
00:03:21,039 --> 00:03:24,000
be conservative. Ten machines would get a play of twenty

54
00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:26,599
thousand players a day, and the average amount spent on

55
00:03:26,680 --> 00:03:29,639
such machines as about twenty cents per person. I've got

56
00:03:29,639 --> 00:03:32,319
three hundred thousand nickels. At one thousand to one ratio,

57
00:03:32,599 --> 00:03:35,479
the machines would pay back one hundred jackpots, or about

58
00:03:35,479 --> 00:03:38,000
two hundred dollars. Yes, but the intake would be four

59
00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:42,639
thousand dollars precisely intake four thousand dollars out go two

60
00:03:42,800 --> 00:03:45,639
hundred dollars, and FOOTT operators will go to any links

61
00:03:45,639 --> 00:03:48,400
to make profits like that. Just a minute time, now,

62
00:03:48,479 --> 00:03:52,759
I'll see who it is. Okay, Hello, doc is the

63
00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:56,759
Hey if you mean Patrolman Dan gallaty he's waiting for you, Madagan, Well, Mike,

Speaker 3: What is that destination? What will they find when.

71
00:04:24,480 --> 00:04:25,000
Speaker 1: They get there?

72
00:04:25,639 --> 00:04:28,240
Speaker 3: Will it be a simple routine cooking up job. All

73
00:04:28,279 --> 00:04:30,079

00:07:56,680 --> 00:07:59,000
what a fool's peterhead and the drive to round up

146
00:07:59,040 --> 00:08:03,240
the crooked slot machine racketeers. Late that night, Dan Garrett

147
00:08:03,279 --> 00:08:05,639
is in secret conference with doctor Franz at his little

148
00:08:05,639 --> 00:08:09,560
apothecary shop. You know, I've got a hunch, Doc, that

149
00:08:09,680 --> 00:08:12,040
there's going to be something doing out at the carnival

150
00:08:12,040 --> 00:08:14,319
tonight after the crowd has gone home, And I suppose

151
00:08:14,319 --> 00:08:16,360
the Blue Beetle will be buzzing around out there right

152
00:08:16,759 --> 00:08:19,120
and probably nipping too. And look out he doesn't get

153
00:08:19,199 --> 00:08:21,879
nipped himself. I'm not a chance, at least not prominently.

154
00:08:22,160 --> 00:08:25,120
I know this blue beetle costume and mask, this blue

155
00:08:25,120 --> 00:08:27,879
beetle chain armour has saved my life many times. Long

156
00:08:27,879 --> 00:08:30,160
as I'm on the alert, nobody can overcome the Blue Beetle.

157
00:08:30,279 --> 00:08:32,120
I hope you'll always be on the alert, Danny.

158
00:08:32,360 --> 00:08:33,360
Speaker 2: I'd hate to lose you.

159
00:08:33,600 --> 00:08:36,200
Speaker 1: Are you been a swell friend, Doc. I owe my

160
00:08:36,279 --> 00:08:38,799
life to you and this chain armor you made me.

161
00:08:38,919 --> 00:08:40,840
I'm working on something else that would be a great

162
00:08:40,879 --> 00:08:43,360
help to you. I believe in your crusade against crime.

163
00:08:43,559 --> 00:08:46,200
What's that like? A fluid that painted on your body

164
00:08:46,279 --> 00:08:48,960
or your suit of armor will make you practically invisible? Hey?

165
00:08:49,480 --> 00:08:50,399
Have you got me over it here?

166
00:08:50,480 --> 00:08:50,720
Speaker 3: Yes?

167
00:08:50,799 --> 00:08:53,759
Speaker 1: Yes, but it isn't perfected yet. What's it like? Well,

168
00:08:54,120 --> 00:08:56,399
you know that every object we can see has some

169
00:08:56,600 --> 00:08:58,600
color to it. Yeah, and as long as that color

170
00:08:58,639 --> 00:09:01,000
is in the colour spectrum. See, human eye can see

171
00:09:01,039 --> 00:09:04,279
the object. Yes, but if the object is some shade

172
00:09:04,320 --> 00:09:07,240
outside the color spectrum, it is invisible to the human eye.

173
00:09:07,440 --> 00:09:10,279
I see in this liquid you're working on outside that

174
00:09:10,360 --> 00:09:13,279
color band. Ah, Ben, If I painted myself with this liquid,

175
00:09:13,679 --> 00:09:17,320
I'd be invisible, Yes, temporarily. What do you mean, Well,

176
00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:19,919
I've got to find a fixer, something to add to

177
00:09:19,960 --> 00:09:22,519
the formula which will preserve the invisible qualities of the

178
00:09:22,519 --> 00:09:26,240
fluid longer. At present, it oxidizes too quickly and becomes

179
00:09:26,320 --> 00:09:29,039
visible to the human eye within a few minutes. Here,

180
00:09:28,919 --> 00:09:32,120
here's some of it here in this jar. Mum, say,

181
00:09:32,200 --> 00:09:36,080
that's very interesting. Well, if you had it perfect. I

182
00:09:36,120 --> 00:09:38,600
could use it on this book. Quiet and quiet. Someone

183
00:09:38,600 --> 00:09:40,159
out in the front of the shop. You us stay

184
00:09:40,200 --> 00:09:41,279
here and I'll see who it is.

185
00:09:41,360 --> 00:09:41,559
Speaker 3: Hello.

186
00:09:44,639 --> 00:09:48,039
Speaker 1: Oh, hello, hello, Officer Managhan. And what brings you here

187
00:09:48,039 --> 00:09:50,159
at this hour? Oh? I was passing by and it's

188
00:09:50,159 --> 00:09:50,879
sat I drop in.

189
00:09:51,279 --> 00:09:51,919
Speaker 2: Is Danny here?

190
00:09:51,960 --> 00:09:54,720
Speaker 1: Eh? Uh no, no, Danny's not here.

191
00:09:54,879 --> 00:09:56,840
Speaker 2: Well, I think I'll wait a bit of your on

192
00:09:56,919 --> 00:09:58,679
mine dock. Maybe he'll turn up.

193
00:09:58,759 --> 00:10:01,039
Speaker 1: Well, I I hardly think you find that garret here

194
00:10:01,039 --> 00:10:05,559
to night. Malligan. By the way, have you seen the

195
00:10:05,639 --> 00:10:09,519
blue beetle around? The blue beetle? You mean the fantastic

196
00:10:09,600 --> 00:10:11,600
character who's always out within the police.

197
00:10:11,759 --> 00:10:13,039
Speaker 4: He won't up with them forever.

198
00:10:13,519 --> 00:10:15,399
Speaker 1: Someday I'm gonna catch up with that baby.

199
00:10:15,440 --> 00:10:18,159
Speaker 2: And when I do, if you'll excuse me, I have,

200
00:10:18,480 --> 00:10:19,320
by the way dock.

201
00:10:20,279 --> 00:10:23,240
Speaker 1: Some neighbors of yours were telling me they've seen the

202
00:10:23,279 --> 00:10:26,000
blue beetle in this neighborhood late at night.

203
00:10:26,480 --> 00:10:28,240
Speaker 2: Would you be knowing anything about that?

204
00:10:28,519 --> 00:10:31,279
Speaker 1: Well, I really go up at night. I spent most

205
00:10:31,279 --> 00:10:35,000
of my time in my laboratory. Is that? Yes?

206
00:10:35,240 --> 00:10:37,200
Speaker 2: Yes, I never saw one of them things. You mind

207
00:10:37,200 --> 00:10:37,960
if I take.

208
00:10:37,840 --> 00:10:39,879
Speaker 1: A look at the battle, I got you. You see,

209
00:10:39,879 --> 00:10:40,960
I'm making some spy.

210
00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:42,519
Speaker 2: I don't touch anything.

211
00:10:42,240 --> 00:10:43,440
Speaker 3: That I just want to love.

212
00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:47,519
Speaker 1: Well, when's a onn what is it?

213
00:10:47,840 --> 00:10:52,200
Speaker 2: What is it? What do you see? So that's the laboratory?

214
00:10:52,720 --> 00:10:53,360
What a place?

215
00:10:53,559 --> 00:10:55,840
Speaker 1: Yes, yes, that's the laboratory.

216
00:10:56,000 --> 00:10:56,879
Speaker 2: Must be great to have.

217
00:10:56,879 --> 00:10:59,840
Speaker 4: Brains like you, Dock once along, I've got to be gone.

218
00:11:00,399 --> 00:11:01,440
Speaker 2: Tell Danny I was in.

219
00:11:01,559 --> 00:11:04,240
Speaker 1: Yes, yes I will Mannagan good night, and keep your

220
00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:11,519
eyes open for the blue beetles. Kenny, Hanny, what are

221
00:11:11,559 --> 00:11:15,360
you right beside your Yes? When I heard Mannigan outside,

222
00:11:15,360 --> 00:11:17,799
I quickly coded myself in your new formula. When he

223
00:11:17,840 --> 00:11:20,320
looked into the laboratory, I was standing right in front

224
00:11:20,320 --> 00:11:23,559
of him. Well, that certainly was a great test. But

225
00:11:23,600 --> 00:11:25,759
the effects are beginning to went off. I can see

226
00:11:25,759 --> 00:11:27,720
a slight tinge of the blue of the blue beetle

227
00:11:27,799 --> 00:11:29,879
armor shining pool. Lay, Doc, I've gotta be on my way.

228
00:11:30,240 --> 00:11:32,080
I'd like to take some of this lookud along with

229
00:11:32,120 --> 00:11:34,200
me and use it tonight. All right, Danny, all right there,

230
00:11:34,360 --> 00:11:37,399
but be careful. Remember the effects stayed away quickly. Thanks, Doc,

231
00:11:38,039 --> 00:11:40,159
Say those racket tears will get the surprise of their

232
00:11:40,200 --> 00:11:42,799
lives when they hear the blue beetle, but can't see him.

233
00:11:42,919 --> 00:11:44,960
You better, honey, Danny, it's it's about closing time for

234
00:11:45,000 --> 00:11:47,840
the carnival. Yeah, the blue beetle will have to really

235
00:11:47,919 --> 00:11:59,799
ride the night wind tonight. What will the blue beetle

236
00:11:59,840 --> 00:12:03,039
do over at John Dore's carnival? Will you run head

237
00:12:03,080 --> 00:12:05,879
on into a band of black machine crooks? Can here

238
00:12:05,919 --> 00:12:26,440
again make himself invisible with doctor Franz's magic formula on

239
00:12:26,679 --> 00:12:28,600
through the night speeds the blue Beetle in his fast

240
00:12:28,679 --> 00:12:31,440
motor car. As he hears the carnival. He parks his

241
00:12:31,519 --> 00:12:34,519
car in a hidden spot and approaches John Doe's tent

242
00:12:34,679 --> 00:12:38,559
on foot. So you won't shine that faith, No, not

243
00:12:38,639 --> 00:12:41,919
follow any crooked schemes like yours. Okay, it's your funeral door.

244
00:12:42,360 --> 00:12:43,320
What kind of frenchy?

245
00:12:45,559 --> 00:12:46,120
Speaker 3: How about it?

246
00:12:46,759 --> 00:12:50,399
Speaker 1: Yes, it's still no you ever tell him again frenchy?

247
00:12:52,720 --> 00:12:59,919
You won't sign a but ain't similar to say, yeah

248
00:13:00,279 --> 00:13:01,159
the blue beetle.

249
00:13:01,279 --> 00:13:02,720
Speaker 2: Oh, there is no blue beetle.

250
00:13:02,799 --> 00:13:05,480
Speaker 1: You it's a trick. Don't get a phonograph plant something

251
00:13:05,639 --> 00:13:09,919
that's so well, here's something planted and it wasn't a phonograph,

252
00:13:09,440 --> 00:13:13,679
So hey pty, what is it? You're no? Maybe you

253
00:13:13,720 --> 00:13:16,120
can see stars. Come on, come on, let's get out

254
00:13:16,120 --> 00:13:16,960
of here before I go with me.

255
00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:19,039
Speaker 2: No, I can't fight. Don't wait a minute.

256
00:13:19,240 --> 00:13:21,559
Speaker 1: Let me help you on your way with my foot.

257
00:13:22,720 --> 00:13:25,399
I'll get doing both of you. If the Blue Beetle

258
00:13:25,440 --> 00:13:28,279
ever sees you again, I'll blast you wide up and

259
00:13:29,120 --> 00:13:34,679
we gotta tell about you. All right, Doors, I do,

260
00:13:35,519 --> 00:13:39,039
I can't am, I do hang no, door, you're not blind.

261
00:13:39,840 --> 00:13:42,480
I do as I can home police headquarters and report

262
00:13:42,519 --> 00:13:46,799
what just happened. All right, and don't worry the blue

263
00:13:46,840 --> 00:13:49,440
Beetles on the job. I'm going to trail those men.

264
00:13:49,440 --> 00:13:51,879
Maybe they'll lead into their hangout. I'll get going.

265
00:13:52,639 --> 00:13:58,240
Speaker 4: The blue beetles got a lot of nippings to do.

266
00:14:04,480 --> 00:14:06,120
Speaker 1: Roll the blue beetle catch up with a thug to

267
00:14:06,240 --> 00:14:09,759
a beating dunbar. What about the invisible pape Let it

268
00:14:09,799 --> 00:14:12,879
well off before the blue Beetle reaches his destination. What

269
00:14:13,080 --> 00:14:15,600
will he find when he gets there? Out of the

270
00:14:15,639 --> 00:14:17,840
carn of the ground, dash the Blue Beetle, just in

271
00:14:17,919 --> 00:14:19,679
time to see the peace dogs drive off and the

272
00:14:19,720 --> 00:14:20,720
Long Sudan.

273
00:14:21,080 --> 00:14:23,480
Speaker 3: Turning into the game car. The Blue beeo gay straight.

274
00:14:23,759 --> 00:14:30,639
Speaker 5: Allows on the river road, a suddenly taking the road

275
00:14:30,639 --> 00:14:33,120
to lead to the old hearted house that must be

276
00:14:33,159 --> 00:14:33,879
the headquarters.

277
00:14:34,399 --> 00:14:36,320
Speaker 1: I'll have to take a chance when visabet paint is

278
00:14:36,320 --> 00:14:38,639
wearing off a person off the road and they'll have

279
00:14:38,759 --> 00:14:39,080
to stop.

280
00:14:43,480 --> 00:14:47,480
Speaker 2: I'm out and make a snapping blue beetle. I can

281
00:14:47,519 --> 00:14:50,759
see him. No get he tell me no fight gorts.

282
00:14:50,799 --> 00:14:51,600
Co'm on me, horties.

283
00:14:51,679 --> 00:14:55,759
Speaker 1: I'll take your off at one man door for law

284
00:14:55,799 --> 00:15:01,960
and order. Oh no you want, I don't take care

285
00:15:02,000 --> 00:15:03,159

286
00:15:03,159 --> 00:15:06,399
Speaker 2: Put up your head, broke, feel around you, sow.

287
00:15:06,120 --> 00:15:09,279
Speaker 1: Not tonight, you won't. Here's a faithful of knuckles for you.

288
00:15:13,200 --> 00:15:16,039
Well he's done for a while. Let's see. I'd better

289
00:15:16,039 --> 00:15:18,639
not use my invisible paint and they need a little

290
00:15:18,720 --> 00:15:21,840
FLEs to use later. How can I get into that

291
00:15:21,879 --> 00:15:25,080
house up there? I think I'll just take one of

292
00:15:25,120 --> 00:15:26,720
these bugs over here and.

293
00:15:36,480 --> 00:15:38,919
Speaker 3: Plans. Here's the haunted house. But I'm fat with the

294
00:15:38,919 --> 00:15:41,679
crooked slot machine racketeers lip looking on.

295
00:15:41,879 --> 00:15:47,440
Speaker 1: It's weird and mysterious looking like looks. Throw the peopaul

296
00:15:47,480 --> 00:15:48,720
and see who that Isna.

297
00:15:48,720 --> 00:15:51,120
Speaker 2: Okay, it's croakery.

298
00:15:51,240 --> 00:15:57,559
Speaker 1: Frankie alright, very here on carmel and admit them. Okay, hello,

300
00:16:01,440 --> 00:16:03,200
you drew, report all the French in me. We went

301
00:16:03,279 --> 00:16:04,879
to see the old man door like you told us,

302
00:16:04,919 --> 00:16:07,080
and we give him the works, but he wouldn't sign

303
00:16:07,159 --> 00:16:09,200
up for the machines. Did you tell him the Duke's ergony?

304
00:16:09,279 --> 00:16:12,360
Show a voice? Why didn't you you fill up this version?

305
00:16:12,440 --> 00:16:14,159
We were just going to and sent me. There was

306
00:16:14,200 --> 00:16:16,600
a funny humming sound and a crack off, no on

307
00:16:16,840 --> 00:16:18,799
out from out of the air. A voice, one said,

308
00:16:18,799 --> 00:16:20,440
he with the blue beetles told us to lay off.

309
00:16:20,440 --> 00:16:23,000
The old man was her dark? No, it was lighted up,

310
00:16:23,120 --> 00:16:25,559
but we couldn't see nobody but the old man. No on, ray,

311
00:16:25,639 --> 00:16:29,440
what happened? That blue beetles started slapping us around. Oh ridiculous.

312
00:16:29,720 --> 00:16:32,000
You must have been drunk. Conan word cheap. We were

313
00:16:32,039 --> 00:16:34,840
sober to judge. Am I right, Frenchy? He did as

314
00:16:34,879 --> 00:16:38,879
you say, m once am out of frenjury went on.

315
00:16:38,960 --> 00:16:41,559
You raise your head on my neck. She has hurt

316
00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:45,440
the blue people. He hits me hard, Yeah, like I said, Chief.

317
00:16:45,759 --> 00:16:47,399
When we couldn't see no one in a fight, we

318
00:16:47,600 --> 00:16:49,919
beat it out of there. But that blue beetle followed

319
00:16:49,960 --> 00:16:51,639
us in his car and just down the road here

320
00:16:51,840 --> 00:16:53,000
he forced us over the sidele.

321
00:16:53,039 --> 00:16:53,639
Speaker 2: We had to stop.

322
00:16:54,039 --> 00:16:56,279
Speaker 1: Then he rushed us and before we could plugged, he

323
00:16:56,519 --> 00:16:58,639
conked this boat on the bean and we passed out.

324
00:16:59,320 --> 00:17:00,919
When I come to, I was in the car and

325
00:17:01,159 --> 00:17:04,319
French he was driving a blue beetle. He had disappeared.

326
00:17:05,000 --> 00:17:09,119
A likely story, Groger, suppose you slipper side. I want

327
00:17:09,160 --> 00:17:11,359
to talk to French. He'll tell you the same story.

328
00:17:11,440 --> 00:17:13,400
Jeep boys, we gotta be ready. The blue beetle may

329
00:17:13,480 --> 00:17:17,559
be here any minute. The blue beetle lives here. What

330
00:17:17,599 --> 00:17:23,160
do you mean, Frenchie, Take how what happened? Called the

331
00:17:23,200 --> 00:17:26,400

blue beetles. The blue beetles seems fond of appearing, and disappear.

335
00:17:36,119 --> 00:17:38,039
Every time he does appear, another bunch of rats have

336
00:17:38,119 --> 00:17:41,240

Speaker 2: I'm I'm confess you crook a ole, choke it out

399
00:20:50,279 --> 00:20:50,400

402
00:20:56,119 --> 00:20:57,480
Blue Beetles Gatin.

403
00:20:57,720 --> 00:21:01,680
Speaker 2: All right, all what the heck cut? Very good work,

404
00:21:01,720 --> 00:21:02,200
Blue Peter.

405
00:21:02,519 --> 00:21:07,480
Speaker 4: Wherever you are, and thanks, but don't forget. Someday I'm

406
00:21:07,519 --> 00:21:09,839
going to catch up with you. And when I do,

407
00:21:10,400 --> 00:21:13,880
I'm going to run you in just on general principles.

408
00:21:13,920 --> 00:21:18,119
Speaker 1: That's okay with me, Manigan, But remember you first got

409
00:21:18,160 --> 00:21:18,759
to catch me.

410
00:21:21,519 --> 00:21:22,240
Speaker 2: Along, Managan.

411
00:21:23,000 --> 00:21:43,480
Speaker 1: Give my regards to the commissioner. And so the Blue

412
00:21:43,480 --> 00:21:46,279
Beetle broke up another racket that was praying on unsuspecting

413
00:21:46,279 --> 00:21:49,680
amusement speakers. What happened when he fell through the trap door?

414
00:21:50,119 --> 00:21:53,079
How did he escape from his living tomb. Let's look

415
00:21:53,119 --> 00:21:56,480
in on doctor Fran's little apropecary shop, where patrolman Dan

416
00:21:56,559 --> 00:22:01,279
Garrett is relaxing after a strenuous night. Danny boy, you

417
00:22:01,319 --> 00:22:05,200
sure have luck. It don't die none. I felt myself falling.

418
00:22:05,480 --> 00:22:07,799
I twisted myself so I landed on my feet. The

419
00:22:07,799 --> 00:22:09,759
twist must have thrown me to one side, so instead

420
00:22:09,759 --> 00:22:12,119
of landing on the concrete floor, I landed in a

421
00:22:12,160 --> 00:22:14,599
fairly deep stream of water that throws under the cellars

422
00:22:14,599 --> 00:22:17,680
of that haunted house. And remarkable, wasn't it. What did

423
00:22:17,720 --> 00:22:20,200
you do then? Well? I let myself be carried along

424
00:22:20,240 --> 00:22:23,000
by the stream, keeping my head above water whenever I could.

425
00:22:23,079 --> 00:22:26,160
And how far did it carry you? Oh? About five

426
00:22:26,200 --> 00:22:28,759
hundred feet underground? When I came up in the open,

427
00:22:28,839 --> 00:22:31,960
I quickly covered myself with your invisible paint, rushed back

428
00:22:32,000 --> 00:22:34,599
to the house and entered with the police. Excuse me

429
00:22:34,640 --> 00:22:37,599
a minute, as someone got front in the store. Well, god,

430
00:22:38,119 --> 00:22:40,799
I want some coiner, and my hooster's got a touch

431
00:22:40,799 --> 00:22:42,960
of the flood. Dear dear, I'm sorry to hear that.

432
00:22:43,559 --> 00:22:49,359
Just a minute, Ah, that would be ten cents. Here's

433
00:22:49,400 --> 00:22:49,759
a quarter.

434
00:22:50,640 --> 00:22:54,000
Speaker 3: Say, did you hear that mysterious tiller on horseback is.

435
00:22:53,960 --> 00:22:56,880
Speaker 1: Killed, and other cop another one that makes the sixth

436
00:22:56,880 --> 00:23:02,119
in as many days. He here's your change has Yes,

437
00:23:03,000 --> 00:23:06,359
a strange a police can't seem to do nothing about it. Well,

438
00:23:06,400 --> 00:23:08,880
here's one policeman that's going to do something about it.

439
00:23:09,359 --> 00:23:14,759
And right now, so it's patrolman day care. Yeah along, doc.

440
00:23:15,279 --> 00:23:17,920
Speaker 2: If Mannequin calls, I'm over at police headquarters.

441
00:23:29,039 --> 00:23:31,279
Speaker 3: What is this new scourge that ostruck the city?

442
00:23:31,960 --> 00:23:35,000
Speaker 1: Six policemen shot in one week by a mysterious horseman

443
00:23:35,559 --> 00:23:39,680
undoubtedly a strange, deadly maniac. Will Dan Garrett run him

444
00:23:39,680 --> 00:23:42,400
to earth only to take the Blue Beetles to avenge

445
00:23:42,480 --> 00:23:46,240
things death. These princetons will be answered in the next

446
00:23:46,279 --> 00:24:05,160
episode of The Blue Beetle and now Here's the Blue Beetle.

447
00:24:05,359 --> 00:24:12,680
To stay up your words. The moral of this story

448
00:24:12,799 --> 00:24:16,319
is that courage will often win against any and all odds.

449
00:24:17,160 --> 00:24:19,960
If you are right, stick to your gun, through thick

450
00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:22,440
and thin, you'll come through somehow.

451
00:24:23,319 --> 00:24:25,960
Speaker 2: All of the real leaders of our day and every human.

452
00:24:25,839 --> 00:24:32,039
Speaker 1: Endeavor have courage, all its nerves, bravery, whatever you will,

453
00:24:32,839 --> 00:24:35,519
but acquire it if you haven't already got it, and

454
00:24:35,640 --> 00:24:40,119
hold on to it or it's very very pressure. This

455
00:24:40,240 --> 00:24:55,519
country we live in was built on courage. The Blue
