00:26What did you expect, Sunnyclaws?
00:28Did you come back for a drink?
00:31No, but it's a good idea.
00:34Tell me about singing in San Francisco
00:36and dating Bill Collins.
00:37You're determined to be unpleasant. Why?
00:40I'm determined to get some truth
00:41into our little conversation.
00:43Bill Collins was murdered,
00:45and while I personally don't give a hoot
00:47or reflex on the agency,
00:48and they're going to pin it on someone,
00:50in my book, you fit the part.
00:52And because I knew him in San Francisco,
00:54you'll frame me?
00:55No, because you and he rigged a robbery,
00:58and he wasn't satisfied with his $6,000.
01:01$6,000?
01:04He chiseled you.
01:06Look, Duke, you know I knew Collins in San Francisco.
01:11My husband knew I was in Sweet Sixteen,
01:13and he knew about my friendship with Bill.
01:16The robbery.
01:17You're too persistent.
01:19How did your supposed robbery connect me with the murder?
01:23You needed money.
01:25A sizable amount of money
01:26without your husband knowing about it.
01:28Probably gambling losses, the horses,
01:30the racing form that I saw you with.
01:32So you found Collins, or he just happened along,
01:35and the two of you arranged a robbery.
01:37He cheated you, you pulled it off,
01:39and he covered it by investigating it.
01:40And by chance he was assigned to this case?
01:43No.
01:44We used five full-time investigators,
01:47and Collins knew how to pick a time
01:48when the other four would have assignments
01:50and he'd be free.
01:51He knew he'd get the case.
01:52There wasn't a chance of him missing it.
01:54Well, go on.
01:56Well, about a month later, he put the bite on you
01:58for more money, and you paid.
02:00Why would I pay?
02:02So he wouldn't tell your husband.
02:04Well, he'd expose himself, wouldn't he?
02:06Only to your husband.
02:09And Mr. Carr wouldn't let you go to jail.
02:11He'd give you hell, probably,
02:13but that wouldn't bother you half as much
02:14as the fact that he'd had a hold on you,
02:16something to control you with.
02:19Am I boring you?
02:20No, go on with your pipe dreams.
02:24When Collins put the second bite on you, you paid,
02:26but you put a stop to it by luring him up
02:28to Lakeview and shooting him.
02:40You don't believe I killed him?
02:42I...
02:48No.
02:51Where did I get the money?
02:53Somebody smart took Collins to Lakeview.
02:56You're smart.
02:58If I paid him, I must have had money.
03:02And if I had money, I didn't need the robbery
03:04I was paying him to keep quiet about.
03:07We'll keep digging.
03:14We'll keep checking the pawn shops.
03:16Maybe we'll come up with the answer to your question.
