18:00I'm waiting for the lowdown on Vince's signing with Nicky Ross.
18:03May have been bluffing, but if it's true, I got an exclusive.
18:18Hey, Whitey, what's with his reflexes?
18:22What's the matter with you? What's the matter?
18:27I didn't lay a glove on him.
18:31He's dead.
18:33Art, you'd better call the sheriff.
18:41So you came up here about a book.
18:43That's right. I can vouch for that, Sheriff.
18:46According to all the stories I'm able to piece together,
18:48apparently everybody up here hated this Vince McKay.
18:51It's common knowledge that you and he weren't good friends.
18:54Guy took the job as a spy, partner.
18:56Doesn't mean to say we've got to be a buddy-buddy.
18:58You had a fight last night right here in the kitchen.
19:00You said you were going to kill him.
19:01I was just bopping my gums.
19:03What were you fighting about?
19:04What's that got to do with it?
19:05Answer my question.
19:08The autopsy showed a trace of rat poison.
19:10Bottle hasn't been found yet.
19:12Everybody will be held on suspicion until he's able to clear himself.
19:16What happened between you and Vince McKay?
19:19Ricky's protecting me, Sheriff.
19:21About the fight, he's my husband and he did what any man would do.
19:24If he thought his wife was fooling around with another man.
19:27But he didn't kill him. Why should he?
19:29Only last night we made up.
19:31We were going to go away today and get a new start somewhere.
19:35I love Ricky.
19:37And as for that thing with Vince, well, it was crazy.
19:40Of course it was crazy.
19:41He didn't care about her.
19:43I was the one he wanted.
19:44Ask anybody.
19:45Ruth, you're excited.
19:47Sheriff, she never had anything to do with McKay.
19:49He's lying.
19:50I was the only one he wanted.
19:52He's lying.
19:53I was the only one he wanted.
19:54The only one.
19:55Shut up.
19:56What are you trying to do?
19:57Hang yourself?
19:58He was no good guy anyway.
20:03There's a man with the best motive for murder in this room.
20:06What?
20:07Love and jealousy.
20:12Sheriff, I'll take you to my room and quiet her.
20:18Are you through with us, Sheriff?
20:19Yeah.
20:20Stick in your cabin.
20:21How about me?
20:22You can all go, but don't leave the premises.
20:24Uh, Mr. Malone, I want to talk to you.
20:30Mr. Malone, McKay didn't tell you until last night
20:34that he had signed with a new manager, did he?
20:37No, sir.
20:38After all the years that you were together and the work he had done,
20:41it must have been quite a shock to you.
20:43Oh, sure.
20:45Such a shock that you kept saying over and over
20:48that he'd never enter that ring Thursday night.
20:50That doesn't mean I'd kill him to stop him.
20:52What does it mean?
20:53Well, it means I was going to complain to the Boxing Commission
20:56about Nicky Ross and his unethical tactics.
20:58Mr. Davis, you know something about the pipe game?
21:00Could he have stopped McKay that way?
21:02Possibly.
21:04Look, Sheriff, I'm beat,
21:05what with the whole world caving in on me,
21:07but I'm leveling with you.
21:08I didn't kill Vince McKay.
21:10Now, that's my story.
21:11You can take it or leave it.
21:13This is a sticker.
21:15Anybody could have done it, yet nobody will say they did.
21:18Sheriff, like I said before, what about Joe?
21:20All right, what about Joe?
21:22Well, everyone knows he's crazy about Ruth,
21:24and yet she was in love with Vince.
21:26Jealousy, huh?
21:28Could be, could be.
21:30And if it is, it's the first real motive I've run into.
21:33Want me to find him for you so you can have a talk with him?
21:35Anybody sworn you in as a deputy?
21:37No, I was just trying to help.
21:39You seem to need it.
21:41I'll talk to Joe when I decide to.
21:43Let's see what you mean.
21:46Guess that'll teach him to mind his own business, huh?
22:02Well, he isn't here.
22:04Remember, he could have gone.
22:06You said you had to find him.
22:08I can't believe he did it.
22:10Yeah, well, I'd still like to talk to him.
22:16Jerry, look here.
22:18What?
22:20Joe, love from your kid sister Sharon.
22:22So?
22:24Well, don't you recognize her?
22:26It's the girl in Vince's picture, the future Mrs. Vince McKay.
22:29Of course.
22:31Joe's kid sister Sharon, and Vince brushed her off.
22:33Now, you see why we had to come here?
22:35Come on, let's find that sheriff.
22:38Joey, what's the matter with you?
22:40Have you gone crazy?
22:42We're getting out of here right now.
22:44But we can't leave.
22:46I parked my jalopy down the road.
22:48I left it there just in case.
22:50Just in case of what?
22:52Joey, what is it?
22:54They searched my room, and they found what they were looking for.
22:56But don't worry.
22:58I know these roads like the back of my hand.
23:00They found.
23:02That was the poison bottle.
23:04Oh, Joey, no.
23:07Ruth, I came here at first because...
23:09Because I wanted to kill him for what he did to Sharon.
23:12But I couldn't.
23:14Not at first, but after I found out about him and you, I couldn't help it.
23:18Oh, Joey.
23:24Open up, let me in here.
23:26Joey, you can't keep running. You've got to give up.
23:28You did enough to me already. I'm not taking any rap, you hear?
23:30If you don't open that door, I'll shoot the lock off.
23:32Come on, let's go out the back way.
23:34Don't try it, Joe.
23:36There are deputies out there with shotguns.
23:41Stick him up, Joe.
23:43All right, let's go.
23:46Let her go, Joey. You can't get away with this.
23:48If you want me, you'll have to shoot through her to get me.
23:50I'm warning you, I'll shoot if I have to.
23:52Joey, let me go.
23:54What happens if you do get away with this?
23:56I've got plans made for the two of us.
23:58You love Ruthie, don't you, Joe?
24:00Sure I love her.
24:02You killed Vince because he hurt your sister,
24:04but you want to drag Ruth into a manhunt.
24:06Hiding in rocks, living like an animal.
24:08What kind of a love is that?
24:10Well, you're no better than Vince, but hey.
24:12Hold it, Joe.
24:14All right, I guess this is it.
24:16Thanks, Mr. North.
24:26It's a good fight on television. You want to watch it?
24:28No, I do not.
24:30Here's your milk.
24:32Thank you. We have better fights here at home.
24:38Anything else you'd like before I turn in?
24:40Mm-hmm.
24:42A nice unmarried kiss.
24:44A pleasure.
24:46How was that?
24:50Married?
24:54I never knew anything legal could be so good.
25:00Ha-ha-ha!
