am I ever glad to see you Just what the
psychiatristort is? Sit down, O'Brien, take a load of U
join me in a bowl of port Oh? Thanks, but ah, sir, ray,
am I ever glad to see you by sights for
these bloodshotow offs? Yes, sir, I realize I'm a very
charming fellow and all that randy. But even though me
thinks this greeting is just a wee bit over enthusiastic,
could it be we're leading up to a touch Oh
templor oh boy, leave us not be mercenary.
Speaker 6: There's nothing I'd rather leave us not be.
Speaker 5: My heart goes after you, Simon. But it's not my
hand saying I'm bad. I'll use that sometimes.
Speaker 6: You just did No, I mean in one of my
books you did? You know?
Speaker 5: It is in the Case of the Hangman's Rope. But
there's bad news tonight. Say that's right, So I did?
Speaker 6: What do you know? So you read my books? I'm Slaughtered?
I read that one.
Speaker 5: Did you read my latest The Case of the Dead
Man's limp or he died with his boots on him
they were too tight?
Speaker 6: No? I missed that one. Not too bad.
Speaker 5: Well, that's why I'm glad to see him, because I
didn't read your book. No, because maybe you can save
my life. I could be killed on a kind of
that book, just that one, or temporal boy, you cut
me to the quick. The case of the cut up author,
or who hacked the Hack's.
Speaker 6: No joke, Templar. You've heard of kid Waldo the Heavy Dah.
Speaker 5: I heard him well, and he was just a punk.
Georgie Garnette sign him up to manage him lifetime contract.
Now the kid is in the higher brackets and he's
still tied to Garnett on terms of no.
Speaker 6: Like well, Candy Afford the lawyer. He's got a.
Speaker 5: Lawyer, but Garnett swings the mean pen.
Speaker 6: No loopholes.
Speaker 5: The contract is ironclad. And your heart bleeds for the kid,
and you're afraid you'll bleed to death.
Speaker 6: I seek not exactly.
Speaker 5: You see, the kid figures an angle. Garnett has a wife.
Oh lovely tomato. Anyway you look at it, and brother, you.
Speaker 6: Look at it? You mean the kid looks at it.
Speaker 5: Precisely, and vice of versa. You see the kid is
no bad piece of merchandise himself, six.
Speaker 6: Foot four of solid muscle. What about it? Wow?
Speaker 5: His face retains much of its original shape, in spite
of coming in contact with some of the fanciest leather
in the business, soft music, two hots in three quarter time.
Speaker 6: I get to take.
Speaker 5: One out all of it. Don't forget Garnett husband.
Speaker 6: Oh yes, triangle three hearts in two quarters.
Speaker 5: Time, and that's the kid's angle. Play up to the
missus while she goes from so he can use herry
to get better terms from Garnett.
Speaker 6: Huh, only the way I wrote it.
Speaker 5: The kid in the Missius slipped the mat of joy,
dose of rock the way you wrote it.
Speaker 6: That's what I'm talking about. You wrote a.
Speaker 5: Book based on kid Walders Shenanigans with missus Gunnett, ad
admit her and put it on the news stand.
Speaker 6: I did so help me, and I do mean help.
I see one of your real life characters is read
one of them, all of them.
Speaker 5: Oh, Garnett wants to know our his wife and his
fighter really giving them the business? And if so, how
do I know?
Speaker 6: My wife wants to know? How do I know?
Speaker 5: My kid wants to know?
Speaker 6: How do I know? How do you know? Template?
Speaker 5: Please?
Speaker 6: A writer protects his he better started protecting him south.
Speaker 5: That's where you come in.
Speaker 6: How big did you say? The kid is six? For?
That's where I go out.
Speaker 5: Oh no, wait, I don't want any part of it, Randy.
You deserve what you're getting. You should have known better
than to use the real situation. Well I didn't use
their real names. You think I'm crazy? No comment, and
I used a disclaimer any similarity, et cetera.
Speaker 6: You Oh yeah, I don't know how they caught on,
but I.
Speaker 5: Used a switch arrule. The kid is a top heavyweight contender,
but not in the book. I changed all that.
Speaker 6: Oh you changed all that?
Speaker 5: Yeah, and the book he's a lightweight.
Speaker 6: That's what I call it. Thri CHERU well after my height.
So you've got to help me, temp Well, what do
you want me to do?
Speaker 5: You expect me to tell a saint his business or
he'll think of something.
Speaker 6: I already have.
Speaker 5: Oh great, what I'm out of shaving green, so I
better go right here. I appeal to you in the
name of our friendship. I'm not you know, Randy, I'm
beginning to think of a few names for our friendship
that aren't exactly appealing.
Speaker 6: Oh you wouldn't let me do You couldn't. I could try.
Speaker 5: Is this Simon Temples speaking my old pal, my buddy,
the Simon Temple Will saw me from the darkest hours
of deadly literary tea who stood buy me when the
critics de said it upon my first, poor defenseless brains out,
Who was it?
Speaker 6: Dolly, Randy, you're breaking my heart.
Speaker 5: I'll do what I can for you, Randy, good old temper.
Speaker 6: I knew you come through, but I still don't know
just what you want.
Speaker 5: Well, it's simple, old man. These jokers are sore, all
of them, maybe the rest of my hide. Well that's
what I've got to find out. In other words, one
and all would thoroughly be delighted to see you dead.
And you want to know if any of them are
making specific plans for such delight exactly. If we know
what they're planning, maybe we can stop it. If it's
not you, ever feeding all of a sudden, any resemblance
between you and a living person will be strictly coincidental, right, Hello.
Speaker 6: Kid, why didn't you get that punching bag arrest?
Speaker 5: It's getting tired for you time and temper. I'm a
friend of Randy Patterson.
Speaker 6: Oh, oh, please get I want to talk to you.
Got nothing to say, but then allow me.
Speaker 5: Look, mister, my lawyers is Smith mcconick, it's in their hands.
You want to talk talk to them?
Speaker 7: Oh, lawyers, Yeah, lawyers.
Speaker 6: I've been libeled.
Speaker 5: I never did none of the things that says in
that book.
Speaker 6: You didn't know? Well, then, how do you know that
the book's about you?
Speaker 5: How do I know?
Speaker 1: How do I know?
Speaker 6: Yeah?
Speaker 1: How do you know?
Speaker 6: Why? You haven't even happened in that book?
Speaker 5: It's just exactly like it. I go chase yourself with.
Speaker 6: Oh, kid, you're looking the wrong way. This is my head.
That's the punching bag there. See. Yeah, it's a long kid. Yes,
my name is Diamond Temp. I'm looking for George Gunnett.
Speaker 5: I'm Gunnett.
Speaker 6: Do you always greet your guests with a gun? Lately?
Speaker 5: The monk is ground?
Speaker 6: Who's money? Bodyguard? Temporary?
Speaker 5: I've heard that name.
Speaker 6: Well, what do you want?
Speaker 5: Well, look, I'd like to talk to you, but not
in the doorway with a gun in my red All right,
come in, come in, thank you, thank you, templar, templar
seems I uh oh oh, sit down there, Okay, I
have to take these blamed indigestion pills. Never stomach been
under a strain lately, terrible strain. By Jove the Saint
of course that's right. Yes, sure, sure, templar. Ah hell, well,
what brings you here?
Speaker 6: Templar?
Speaker 5: Randy Patterson asked me, person that wrap, that skunk, that murderer, murderer,
accomplish him?
Speaker 6: Oh, who's been murdered?
Speaker 5: Nobody yet?
Speaker 6: Who then?
Speaker 5: Don't but somebody maybe any minute, any time?
Speaker 6: Who me?
Speaker 5: That's what he said in that blast book, isn't it me?
Speaker 6: But that doesn't yeah?
Speaker 5: Me, me, me, Well, I tell you, temporary, If I
get murdered, I'll hold Patterson quietly responsible.
Speaker 6: So help me. I will because he said you might
be killed. You have to thank him for the warning.
Speaker 5: But he won't tell me where he got the information,
so I can really protect myself. Now I can't sleep.
I got where'd I put those pills?
Speaker 6: It's one of them? Oh?
Speaker 5: Oh do you know, Templa, Do you know where he
got the information?
Speaker 6: No? If you knew what you tell.
Speaker 5: Oh, yes you would. I'll just bet.
Speaker 6: Why do you come here, templar? I've been wondering what
you plan to do?
Speaker 2: Oh?
Speaker 7: Do?
Speaker 5: What can I do?
Speaker 4: Look?
Speaker 5: I got a beautiful wife.
Speaker 6: We were well, we got along.
Speaker 5: At least I thought we did.
Speaker 6: Then he says in the book, Well, you know, yes,
I know.
Speaker 5: Oh confounded, templar a thing like that. How can you
be sure? Police says it's a lot of eyewash, That's
what she says, a lot of eyewash. But I've been
watching her, watching her and the kid. That's the trouble
gets you suspicious. I've been watching there's something between them.
I know there is, But if only I could be certain?
Are you sure I took those pills?
Speaker 6: I'm sure.
Speaker 5: I mustn't forget, Doc says, I'm well anyway, way back
to what I was saying, and what was I saying?
Speaker 6: You think there's something between Phelipe and the kid? Yeah?
Speaker 5: Yeah, think if only I was who's kidding?
Speaker 6: Who I know?
Speaker 5: If Patterson is right about that, If he's right about that, well,
don't you see he was the murder. Oh he could
be right about that too. It comes next, Yeah.
Speaker 6: The murder comes next loud necessarily.
Speaker 5: That's why I got Monk, big guy used to be
the kid's sparring partner. Where is he he ought to
be here? Say, look, you still haven't told me what
you're doing here, Tempera, What do you want?
Speaker 6: Nothing more with you? Guynett? But I would like to
see Felipe. Is she at home?
Speaker 1: No?
Speaker 5: At the hotel?
Speaker 6: Bennett? Oh?
Speaker 5: Yes, after this business he moved out, said I was
too suspicious. Who wouldn't be suspicious? But I love her, Templar,
that's the trouble. Why did he have to say? Do
you suppose there's a chance?
Speaker 6: Oh no?
Speaker 5: Why do I keep trying to kid myself? Get out
of here? Tempera, will you get out? I'm going, Guynett, goodbyee?
Speaker 6: Do you think you're going?
Speaker 5: Mister Hope?
Speaker 7: Mon oh, mister Garnett, I didn't know you was here.
I've seen this fellow come out of the living room.
I didn't know who he was.
Speaker 6: You might have asked before you broke my jaw? Is
it brooke in at least three plates? Ah?
Speaker 4: You kid?
Speaker 6: Does she defriend yours?
Speaker 4: Mister Garnett?
Speaker 6: Friend?
Speaker 5: Is anyone a friend in this doggy dog world?
Speaker 1: I don't know?
Speaker 6: Help him up, mole, help myself? Oh?
Speaker 5: Oh, all right, monk, you want sparring practice, I'll be
glad to accommodate you.
Speaker 7: Wait a minute, what's she doing here, mister Garnett?
Speaker 5: I'm not quite sure what I throw on luck Michael Brains,
I'd already be out if you hadn't suddenly rush to
the rescue. He's right, monk, And speaking of rushing to
the rescue, where were you.
Speaker 7: We're taking a nap. We've got to keep in condition.
Speaker 5: I might have needed you, well you got the rosco
in that case, Why do I ever need you? See
that's a thought. Perhaps, well, Zambra, what are you waiting for?
What you were going? But this has been such a
delightful get together. I can hardly tear myself away.
Speaker 4: I couldn't tell you away. If you need any help,
I doubt it.
Speaker 6: Monk.
Speaker 5: From the look of you, you don't do so good
when the other fellow is in a position to fight back.
Speaker 7: If you was in the ring as long as I was,
you'd be kind of banged up too. But I was
plenty good, brother, plenty good. If you want to know, even.
Speaker 4: Joe Louis was scared of me.
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, he was scared to fight me.
Speaker 6: How do you like that?
Speaker 5: Louise was scared to fight me?
Speaker 6: How do you know?
Speaker 4: Well, did you ever fight me?
Speaker 6: Not that I know?
Speaker 4: All right, then I.
Speaker 6: See what you mean. Well, goodbye again. Fellows come in,
Well look what I get.
Speaker 5: And I didn't even send in any boxtops what I
was expecting Randy Patterson.
Speaker 6: But he can wait. In fact, I hope he does
come in. Come in, mister Temper, you've got to help me.
Well in that case, you'd better call me Simon.
Speaker 5: All right?
Speaker 6: And what do I call you?
Speaker 3: Please? Please? Gone it?
Speaker 6: Oh? Oh, I'm so glad to meet you, flee.
Speaker 5: In fact, I've tried to reach you several times to
really why, well do you see I'm a friend of
Randy Patterson.
Speaker 3: I didn't know he had any friends.
Speaker 6: Live and learn does not want to keep on living.
Speaker 5: That's why I came here.
Speaker 3: If you're a friend of Pattison's, maybe I made a mistake.
Speaker 6: Not necessarily what brings you here?
Speaker 3: I heard you'd been to see my husband. I wanted
what your interest in us was.
Speaker 6: I'm afraid I found out you said you wanted me
to help you.
Speaker 1: I did.
Speaker 3: When I heard you were involved, I thought you might
be just the one to turn to. That was before
you told me about Pattison. Any friend of his is
an enemy of.
Speaker 5: Mine, of course, But police, I believe in the old
saying love your enemy.
Speaker 3: It's rather difficult.
Speaker 6: Apparently you need someone to help you. Why not give
me a try. Just uh, what help do you need?
Speaker 3: Well, well, I can't heard to tell you I'm being
framed for what my husband's murder.
Speaker 6: Has he been murdered?
Speaker 5: Why not yet? But you know, it's funny how everyone
seems to take it for granted that he will be
He will, how do you know? But that's what it's
all about. What didn't you read the book?
Speaker 6: Just because Randy wrote a book.
Speaker 3: But that's why he wrote it so my husband could
be murdered is of course? Patterson wrote a book simley
disguised about me and my husband and kid Waldo, And
it's a kid and I ploped to kill my husband.
So George read it got frightened. Now he suspects maybe
we really are planning to kill him. He's even hard
a bodyguard. M h, what don't you see it's all
a build up, and George really is killed naturally. It
looks like a kid.
Speaker 6: Now I did it.
Speaker 5: That's the whole idea.
Speaker 6: And Randy's in on the plot.
Speaker 3: Of course, the.
Speaker 6: Real killer hired him to throw.
Speaker 5: Suspicion on us.
Speaker 6: Just who is the real killer?
Speaker 5: I don't know.
Speaker 3: That's what I wanted you to find out.
Speaker 5: Well, it's an interesting theory, police theory. I'll check to
see if it's anything more than.
Speaker 6: That, you will.
Speaker 3: But if Patterson your friend, he's.
Speaker 5: Pocketing blood money, this is the end of a nuts
so beautiful friendship.
Speaker 6: And then FELICEU and I could be friends.
Speaker 3: Oh, Simon, if you help me will be more than.
Speaker 6: Grand Aren't you forgetting just one small little item?
Speaker 5: Am I?
Speaker 3: Oh you don't mean the kid, do you? So you
don't really believe there's anything between him?
Speaker 6: Perish the thought? Well, but isn't there anything else?
Speaker 5: Now?
Speaker 6: Think I'm guessing games on? What about your husband?
Speaker 5: I mean, before you and I give way the mad rapture,
shouldn't we think about him?
Speaker 6: Oh? So that's what's bothering.
Speaker 5: But we don't have to worry about him.
Speaker 6: He's going to be murdered. No, don't look now, But
isn't that what you want me to prevent is murder?
Speaker 3: Heavens?
Speaker 5: No, I just want you to prove I had nothing
to do with it. You'd better run along, police, No,
I feel a previous engagement coming on.
Speaker 3: I don't tell me you're afraid of my husband.
Speaker 6: No, Police, then I don't understand I'm afraid of you.
Hello Andy, oh boy, I thought you were coming over here.
Speaker 5: Iain, and she didn't have a friend.
Speaker 6: Probably she've got coming.
Speaker 5: And I can tell you over the phone. The teams
each of your opposition has picked up reinforcement.
Speaker 6: Uh.
Speaker 5: Well, the kid has a couple of lawyers and Garnett
has a bodyguard.
Speaker 6: M h. How about missus Garnett? She has me.
Speaker 5: Oh, I should have known.
Speaker 6: Want to look at her. I'm not still running, but
I'm afraid you're going to have to tell me who
did your research for you? Rand before I told you
it was strictly confidential. You can have to tell me
now or the police later. Police m M.
Speaker 5: Because your characters seem determined to act out the finale
of your open Garnett is already shopping for a coffin.
But I just made up that stuff about the murder.
I don't think the kid in the gall would really
knock him off, and the consensus is that somebody would,
so you'd better talk. But I gave my word.
Speaker 6: Did that ever stop you before, Tapler to think.
Speaker 5: That you should say such a thing.
Speaker 6: You who've been so close, we've been too close?
Speaker 7: All right, all right, I'm a no good at he
or a liar.
Speaker 5: I'd sell my soul for a mess of pottage. But
at least Templer has always been the best puppage.
Speaker 6: Mm hm Now would you please stop talking?
Speaker 5: And do you want me to betray a confidence?
Speaker 6: I thought we'd agree it in character?
Speaker 5: How true? How very very true?
Speaker 6: Well, Randy, Randy, Randy, you really believe in keeping me
in shafe, don't you? Kid?
Speaker 5: H oh you again?
Speaker 6: Temple?
Speaker 5: Yeah, look, why don't you get lost? And say Patterson
with you?
Speaker 6: And Patterson already got lost. That's why I'm here. I
don't get it. I was talking to him on the phone.
I heard shots. I called the police and they called
back from Patterson's place. He's dead. I'm not surprised. What
do you know about it?
Speaker 5: He had a coming from you, maybe only somebody beat
me to it. So I got nothing more to say.
You want conversations, see.
Speaker 6: My lawyer Smith and McCormick.
Speaker 3: Guy.
Speaker 6: I know I may get around to it. Yeah, I'll
do that.
Speaker 3: He oh oh n.
Speaker 6: I asked at the death, they bead i'd find you
here in the bar.
Speaker 5: That's where I am.
Speaker 6: Here is the bar.
Speaker 3: Nobody very well listen, and I'm nobody's been here all afternoon,
except my friend Tony.
Speaker 6: Tony is my favorite bartender, Tony. I am a stand charmed.
Speaker 3: Please Tony hit me again? My friends setting him up?
Speaker 8: Thank you.
Speaker 6: Stood, Simon?
Speaker 3: What do you drinking?
Speaker 5: I just watch you.
Speaker 6: Good? Suppose you tell me I've been wondering.
Speaker 5: You want to know if I have an HOURIBI?
Speaker 8: Why why are you from your places?
Speaker 3: Have any other time?
Speaker 6: I see you hate me? Don't you know why you
keep spying on me? If they can't keep myself away
from you. If you believed that.
Speaker 4: I wouldn't say it.
Speaker 3: You're just trying to mix me up.
Speaker 5: You've already mixed me up. What's this alibi you were
talking about?
Speaker 6: How do you know about that? It's not in the papers?
Speaker 3: You really, Simon for a smart man? You the kids
phone me?
Speaker 5: How else do you think? I know?
Speaker 6: You didn't waste any time? Did he? We knew I'd
be interested. Nice of him to be so considerate. I
thought there was nothing between you two.
Speaker 3: You are spine.
Speaker 5: I'm curious and maybe you're jealous.
Speaker 6: Jealous, Simon terribly.
Speaker 5: I wish I.
Speaker 6: Believe that what's between you and the kid? I told
you nothing he phoned you. I'd be interested getting a
snow place.
Speaker 3: You could get someplace, simon a phone. You to stop
acting so sweet.
Speaker 5: I really could.
Speaker 6: Don't you like me a little bit? Yes? I like you? Timon,
Who do you think killed Randy Patterson? Police?
Speaker 5: Must we talk about it?
Speaker 6: And beginning you think it's the safest subject. Don't you
have any ideas who might have done it?
Speaker 5: No, I'm afraid I don't know what you want, Dimond.
Speaker 6: I'm afraid I do know what you want. Well, that's
this this color?
Speaker 5: Oh? Hello, kid, I was done the wrong idea. Kid,
we were just talking. Yeah, it looks fun. How about
the murders you were making with the mo own eyes.
Speaker 3: I can't believe me. There's nothing between silent and me.
Speaker 5: Not a thing. He's right, kid, there's nothing more between
us than there is between her and say have you
for example? And she has assured me your relationship with
stick me patonic police?
Speaker 4: You told him?
Speaker 3: No, I don't get the wrong idea.
Speaker 5: I ain't got any idea.
Speaker 6: What does it mean?
Speaker 5: Blada was a philosopher student of Socrates, who believe that if.
Speaker 3: Two people get a wife's guy, urry, kids, please don't
be angry.
Speaker 5: No, you'll play around with this guy and then he
starts cracking smile. I want to push your face. Oh kid,
never strike a lady. And you too, are a gentleman
when the gentleman is me.
Speaker 6: Oh yeah, we'll all right, please hem, but not this
ch sor right now.
Speaker 5: It only takes what he stakes. You're out now, that's
a nough kid. One morning, maybe i'd be out, so
I better be running.
Speaker 4: See you around.
Speaker 6: Ooh you m You greet me with a gun too, Monk.
That's what I like about this place. Oh friendly?
Speaker 4: You got no idea? How was friendly? Just the guy
we want to see? Come in, pell come right in.
Speaker 6: Now that's a switch. Last time you were all for
throwing me out.
Speaker 4: Oh that's before I learned what a sweet guy you was.
Speaker 6: Now come on in with such a hearty invitation. I
don't see how I can refuse.
Speaker 5: You can't you know, monk, this is an unexpected pleasure.
When I was here before I got the impression guy
that was considering firing.
Speaker 4: You or you couldn't do that?
Speaker 6: Where is he?
Speaker 4: In fact, you'll be in a minute. Now. You want
to see why you couldn't find me? Why on a conna?

for instance, Oh.

Speaker 4: Rock at I don't try to hit fact.
Speaker 6: This roscoe is looking at your belly with a set nine.
Everybody's targets for tonight. What's the idea?
Speaker 7: Mister Garnett wanted to know how much Patterson tore you? Yes,
you're nice, real nice. I don't ask so nice, but
I get answers. Well, you want to talk?
Speaker 6: Now?
Speaker 4: Shall we dance?
Speaker 6: I have nothing to say, We'll see you.
Speaker 7: You still got nothing to say.
Speaker 5: I'm beginning to think of a few things, but I
have an idea. You wouldn't care for them.
Speaker 4: You kill me.
Speaker 7: Maybe I can do the same for you sometime, like
right now, for instance, Like you're ready to talk, I
think about it.
Speaker 4: Well, while you're thinking, put up your hands over your head.
Speaker 6: Hurry up, don't forget the roscoe, my old friend. How
could I?
Speaker 4: That's shit? And now, just to help you make up
your mind is oh, well, hello, mister Garnett, what's going

Speaker 4: She's a stubborn type.
Speaker 5: Yes, so it would seem monks, so it would seem. Well, Templa,
do what are we indebted for? This return visitor?
Speaker 6: I've seen felice. I thought you might like to know
how she's getting along?
Speaker 5: Why should I care? Does she care about me? Does
she ever even call?
Speaker 6: Don't stand there with your hands like that, Templar, It
looks ridiculous, smoked idea.
Speaker 4: Your mister gone at Temple put him down?
Speaker 6: How is she Templar? Who?
Speaker 5: Oh? Fully, I was afraid of that, afraid I'd like
to think she needed me. I've got to put her
out of my mind, Template completely, only answer. Tell me something, Gonett.

Speaker 7: I didn't sleep so good. I was only gone a
few minutes, just a few minutes.
Speaker 5: Half hours. So why, Templar, did you try to reach me?
Speaker 6: No? Goodn't if I'd have heard the phone if you
were here, But I told her you did. It's a minute.
Speaker 5: What you going to do this, Templer?
Speaker 6: Why you knocked out Monk? Eh third seems funny. I
didn't hit him very high.
Speaker 5: You aimed at his chin always was his weakness, had
a wicked right, but he could never take it round heels.
Speaker 6: That's his trouble.
Speaker 5: I could have made a champ out of him if
it hadn't been for those. But there's neither here nor there.
Speaker 6: Why'd you do it?
Speaker 5: He slugged me before when I wasn't looking at evens
the account, and it gives me a chance to get
his rosc oh. I want to point something out to you, Guyett.
I didn't want Monk interfering what Randy Patrison doesn't live
too far from here. I believe you could make it
in fifteen minutes, perhaps so perhaps so what are you
driving at?
Speaker 6: Fisteen? There? Fifteen back?
Speaker 5: Half hour would have been long enough for what for
you to have gone to his place and killed him?
Killed him? But do you mean have somebody?
Speaker 6: Why don't present?
Speaker 5: I'm not pleased, But surely you don't really think that?
Speaker 6: I why?
Speaker 5: That's that's upsurd?
Speaker 6: You could have while Monk was gleeping.
Speaker 5: No, No, you don't understand it. SA. He's fifteen minutes
to Patterson's place at the very least if you hurry
race like Matt, how do you know I've been there
but not today? Not today. But you know you said yourself,
all right, fifteen minutes around flip in half an hour
that though you needed, Well, that was just round figures.
I'm sure Monk couldn't have been out of the room
for oh well, twenty minutes the most. You'll see when
he comes to well, ask him twenty minutes at the most.
Speaker 6: I'm sure he'll say whatever you want him to. But
we'll see.
Speaker 5: Say, I just thought of something. What has there been
any report about the murder yet? The newspaper? Radio?
Speaker 6: No, not to soon.
Speaker 5: Well, then, mister templar, how come you happen to know
about It's a nice point, Guynett, But notice what big
years I have Grandpa? I overheard over her in telephone.
Come on, Monk, wake up, wake up, come.
Speaker 4: On, very worthy. Oh hey, it was an accident. I slipped,
I hit my head.
Speaker 6: You do do a month? Sure? What big ears you
have too? Month? Genuine cauliflower? How did you hear about it? You?
But what the murder?
Speaker 4: Who me?
Speaker 5: I'm obviously guy that didn't know about the murderer? He
wouldn't have stuck his neck out by admitting you were
out of the room. He didn't start crawling until I
mentioned the murder. That's right, Templar, you know that. I
also noticed that Monk was very busy trying to build
the alibi before I mentioned the murder.
Speaker 7: We was sure I was trying to protect this to Gonette.
Speaker 4: After all, I got a great sense of world.
Speaker 5: No, Monk, you haven't got any sense of loyalty or
any sense. How did you know he needed protection unless
you knew about the murder. Of course, how did he
know unless he was the murderer?
Speaker 4: Are you crazy?
Speaker 6: Maybe?
Speaker 5: Monk, but the alibi you were preparing for Garnett would
have worked for you too. If you were here with Garnette,
you couldn't have committed the murder. Isn't that why you
insisted you were gone only a few minutes.
Speaker 4: My head hurts. I got nothing to say.
Speaker 5: What, Templa, What motive would Monk have? There's one thing
we've all been wondering about, Garnett. How did Randy find
out about your wife and the kid? Must have been
from someone who was close to the kid, say.
Speaker 6: A sparring partner for nce A templar, you've hit it.
I think so.
Speaker 5: Monk gave Randy the information. Then when things got hot,
Monk was afraid Randy might snitch, so he killed him too.
Speaker 6: Turns, that's a templar.
Speaker 5: That's it, Monk, you scounder, You billing shit up month.
That's in supportination. Not come on, monk, You and I
are going to police headquarters whom monks don't try to
get tough.
Speaker 6: Maybe Joe Lewis is scared of you, but I ain't.
Come on, let's go.
Speaker 2: You have been listening to another adventurer of the Saint
the robin Hood of modern crime, and I'll hear us
our star and some.

financial security. Whatever your dream for the future, you can
make it come true with a program of regular saving.
And there is no surer, more profitable way of saving
than through the purchase of United States Savings bonds.

and they are redeemable at any time at the purchase.

the Capers. Then here Dorothy Mayner on MBC.
Speaker 6: Welcome Back.
Speaker 1: You have to appreciate an episode when it makes what
seems to be Josh the comic relief background thug, turnout
to be the killer. And we also learned the perils
of writers using real life people as the basis for
their stories, particularly if they're throwing in a murder that
hasn't actually happened. So I did appreciate the killer's logic
for why Joe Lewis was scared of him. That was
funny by that standard. There are a lot of people
scared of me. I've not fought anybody, all right. Well,
