00:05:37THE END
00:05:38Yes, I know I owe it to you, but a quarter of a million dollars would be reasonable.
00:05:47Now, please be patient.
00:05:49I have a plan, but it's only just started.
00:05:53Give me time to work it out, and I'll repay you dollar for dollar.
00:05:58Hello.
00:06:08I want to set a radiogram, please.
00:06:24To whom is the radiogram, please?
00:06:27Miss Norma Denby, Diaz in Denver, aboard SS Paris.
00:06:33Regret unable to meet you at boat.
00:06:39Vitally important that I see you at my home tomorrow evening without fail.
00:06:46Sign it fondly, Uncle Walter.
00:06:51Read that back, please.
00:07:03I'm Norma Denby.
00:07:20Mr. Stephens is expecting you, Miss Denby.
00:07:25Mr. Stephens is expecting you, Mr. Demby.
00:07:29May I take your coat?
00:07:31Oh, no, thank you. I'll keep it on.
00:07:35Nice, cozy little place your uncle has here.
00:07:37He likes it.
00:07:39He'd have to live in it.
00:07:41This way, please.
00:07:49Well, well, well, if it isn't the prodigal niece.
00:07:51Oh, it's swell seeing you again, darling.
00:07:53Good to see you again, too, dear.
00:07:55I took the liberty of bringing along my conquest.
00:07:57Good, I'm glad you did.
00:07:59This is Jack, Uncle Walter.
00:08:01This niece of mine isn't much of a correspondent.
00:08:03What few letters she did write, though, were full of you.
00:08:05Congratulations, young man.
00:08:07Thank you, and I hope you'll excuse me for barging in like this.
00:08:09Nonsense. I'm delighted.
00:08:11I was more than pleasantly surprised to hear that you set your marriage for June.
00:08:13Do you realize it's only a month away?
00:08:15Well, we decided we didn't want to rush this.
00:08:17Well, we decided we didn't want to rush this.
00:08:19So, we put it off until...
00:08:21The day after tomorrow.
00:08:23The day after tomorrow?
00:08:25Does that startle you?
00:08:27Why...
00:08:29Why, no, no, that's fine.
00:08:31That's one of the things I wanted to talk to you about.
00:08:33But I'm forgetting my role as host.
00:08:35Sit down, my dear, sit down.
00:08:37We may as well come to the point.
00:08:39Perhaps you'd rather talk to Norma alone, Mr. Sears.
00:08:41No, no, no, not at all.
00:08:43As Norma's future husband is.
00:08:45Well, I'll tell you.
00:08:47Not at all.
00:08:49As Norma's future husband, what I have to say concerns you too.
00:08:51Now, as Norma knows, she and I were named joint heirs under the terms of her father's will.
00:08:57And, uh, until she marries, I'm the executive of her estate.
00:09:01But should anything happen to either of us, why then, uh, the survivor only had its entire estate.
00:09:07And I think that you, Norma, and you, Jack, as our future husband, should know of what that estate consists.
00:09:13To that end, I've prepared a record of the estate's holdings.
00:09:17And I want to talk it over with you both after dinner.
00:09:19But your radiogram said there was something urgent.
00:09:21Well, uh, if it hadn't been urgent, I, I wouldn't have sent it.
00:09:27Something's worrying you. What is it, Uncle Walter?
00:09:29Well, perhaps I'm unduly alarmed, but last night I received this note of warning from the gorilla.
00:09:37The gorilla?
00:09:39You mean that murderer, the one the papers have been so full of?
00:09:43I do.
00:09:45But isn't it possible that this is all just a joke, that someone's playing a prank on you?
00:09:49I wish I could think so.
00:09:51But, Uncle Walter, why should he or anyone want to kill you?
00:09:54I don't know.
00:09:56Oh, it's possible that some old enemy of mine, I admit I have many enemies in my day,
00:10:00it's possible that one of them, in a spirit of revenge, has hired this, this maniac, this professional killer,
00:10:06or whatever the gorilla is.
00:10:08But this note is exactly like the one that was in the newspapers, after he murdered that widow.
00:10:13Still, I can't bring myself to believe it.
00:10:16Of course you've notified the police.
00:10:19No, I haven't.
00:10:20But surely if there was anything in all this...
00:10:22I've taken other precautions.
00:10:23Peters and I are armed, and in addition I've engaged the services of a private detective agency.
00:10:28Their operative should be here any moment now.
00:10:31Well, obviously this gorilla is no ordinary murderer at all.
00:10:35And judging by his past, shall we say, successes, it is apparent that the workings of the police were an open book to him.
00:10:42Of course there's a slim chance that by not notifying the police, we might upset his plans.
00:10:48Ordinarily I'm not easily frightened, but I must admit this whole affair is giving me the creeps.
00:10:54Well, it's nearly nine o'clock, and I suppose you freshen up a bit.
00:10:56We'll talk it over after dinner.
00:11:02Oh, Kitty.
00:11:03Show Miss Dim into the green room and Mr. Marsden into my room.
00:11:06Yes, sir.
00:11:07Don't worry.
00:11:08Don't worry, Uncle Walter.
00:11:11Oh, excuse me, Mr. Stevens.
00:11:13Yes, Kitty?
00:11:14Oh, I know it's customary to give notice.
00:11:17Why, Kitty, you're not trying to tell me you're going to leave me.
00:11:19Oh, no, sir.
00:11:20I'm trying to tell you I have left you.
00:11:22Kitty, you're perfectly safe here.
00:11:23Besides, we have guests.
00:11:25You haven't the heart to leave me now.
00:11:27Well, my heart is willing, but I'm going to have an awful time trying to convince the rest of my body.
00:11:37It's a gun, Mr. Stevens.
00:11:38No, no, no, I'm sorry, sir.
00:11:39It's a gunfight.
00:11:40Oh, yes.
00:11:41Oh, yes.
00:11:42Not good.
00:11:43Oh, no.
00:11:44I'm going to have an awful time trying to hear this.
00:11:49Oh, yes!
00:11:50Oh, yes.
00:11:51Oh, yes!
00:11:52Oh, yes!
00:11:53Oh, yes!
00:11:54This is a gunfight.
00:11:56Oh, no!
00:11:57Oh, yes!
00:11:59Oh!
00:12:00Oh, yes!
00:12:01Oh, yes!
00:12:02Oh, yes!
00:12:03And now that has a gunfight.
00:12:05Oh, yes!
00:12:06Yes!
00:12:07I'll bet there's a dead body in every room.
00:12:09That body won't hurt you.
00:12:11It can't do you any good.
00:12:13Well, what are we waiting for?
00:12:15Let's go.
00:12:19Who'll get it? You!
00:12:21You're terrific tonight, Chief.
00:12:23Make a note of that.
00:12:25Keep doing that once in a while. It keeps me on edge and thinking.
00:12:27Right.
00:12:29Now, what do you suppose they want to take this for?
00:12:31I've got an idea. Let's go in and find out.
00:12:33You're terrific.
00:12:37Let's go.
00:12:39Let's go.
00:12:49Who are you?
00:12:51Me? Why?
00:12:53I'm Peter, sir.
00:12:55Never mind that, never mind that. What's your name?
00:12:57Peter, sir.
00:12:59Just a minute, just a minute.
00:13:01Where were you last night?
00:13:03I beg you pardon?
00:13:05This is no beauty contest.
00:13:15Shh.
00:13:17Shh.
00:13:24Who's Stevens?
00:13:25I am.
00:13:26I'm Harrigan.
00:13:27I'm Mulligan.
00:13:28I'm Garrity.
00:13:29Harrigan. Mulligan.
00:13:31I'll save for you because I need protection.
00:13:33My life's been threatened.
00:13:35Now, tell me. Any clues?
00:13:37One very vital one.
00:13:39This warning from the gorilla.
00:13:40That's well.
00:13:41You've got nothing to worry about.
00:13:42Mark that down, Garrity.
00:13:43Right.
00:13:44How do you spell gorilla?
00:13:45Two R's or two L's?
00:13:46Gorilla.
00:13:47Gorilla.
00:13:48G-O-R-G...
00:13:49G-O-O!
00:13:50G-O!
00:13:51Oh!
00:13:52G-O!
00:13:53Gorilla...
00:13:54Did you...
00:13:55Did you...
00:13:56Did you say...
00:13:57Gorilla?
00:13:58Why, gentlemen, you're not afraid.
00:13:59No, we're not afraid.
00:14:00No, we're not afraid.
00:14:01We'd your support, maybe if we...
00:14:03Thank you very much.
00:14:04The gorilla coming here?
00:14:05It was nice to have met you, Mr. Stevens.
00:14:06Quiet!
00:14:07Quiet!
00:14:08I...
00:14:09I've already taken the precaution of arming my servant to myself.
00:14:11And I think you'll find that every door and window is securely bolted.
00:14:13I couldn't have done better myself.
00:14:14With us on the job, Mr. Stevens, you've got nothing to worry about.
00:14:15What's your plan, Mr. Harrigan?
00:14:16Well, first we'll take a look around the house.
00:14:17Come on, then.
00:14:18Now, you just sit tight, Mr. Stevens.
00:14:19The gorilla will get you over our dead bodies.
00:14:20Dead bodies.
00:14:21Dead bodies.
00:14:22Jack!
00:14:23Yes, darling?
00:14:24Who are those men?
00:14:25Probably the men.
00:14:26The men.
00:14:27Of course.
00:14:28I don't know.
00:14:29None of us.
00:14:30We will get out of here.
00:14:31You know?
00:14:32You know what?
00:14:33I mean, he's not a man.
00:14:34He's not a man.
00:14:35I don't know what's going to happen.
00:14:37He's not a man.
00:14:38You know, he's not a man.
00:14:39He's not a man.
00:14:40It's a man.
00:14:41I'm a man.
00:14:42He's not a man.
00:14:43He's not a man.
00:14:44He's not a man.
00:14:45He's not a man.
00:14:46He's a man.
00:14:47I mean, he's a man.
00:14:48He's a man.
00:14:49He's a man.
00:14:50I can't believe him.
00:14:51Probably the detectives your uncle hired.
00:14:53Jack, I'm terribly worried. What are we going to do?
00:14:56Well, it seems there isn't anything we can do yet.
00:14:59Listen, darling, it isn't that I'm trying to appear skeptical.
00:15:02It's just that, well, somehow I can't make myself believe all this.
00:15:06But that note, you saw the note.
00:15:08Of course I did, but still I...
00:15:10Look, darling, we'll wait. We'll wait and see if something really does happen.
00:15:15But what if it does?
00:15:16I just don't believe it will.
00:15:18Jack!
00:15:29Excuse me, sir.
00:15:31I tried to put your car away.
00:15:33But unfortunately, there's something wrong with it.
00:15:36What do you mean?
00:15:37It won't start.
00:15:39Excuse me, sir.
00:15:44He gives me the creeps.
00:15:46He doesn't exactly give me an appetite either.
00:15:48I wouldn't let him worry me if I were you.
00:15:50Honestly, darling, don't you think there's any cause for alarm?
00:15:53I'm afraid I don't.
00:16:02Oh, there you are. Another sherry before dinner?
00:16:05Thank you, no.
00:16:16Uncle Walter, how long have you had that butler?
00:16:26Not very long. Why?
00:16:27Well, are you sure he's all right?
00:16:29I've found him so. Why?
00:16:31Well, because I...
00:16:33Dinner is served, sir.
00:16:35Oh, shall we go in?
00:16:37Shall we go in?
00:16:46You'd better drink a little of that kitty.
00:16:48It'll quiet your nerves.
00:16:49Why? Can you hear them?
00:16:50Oh, here, take it.
00:16:52What my nerves really need is a good long trip.
00:17:02Here!
00:17:03Now, look here. Where were you last night?
00:17:06Me? Why, I...
00:17:07Answer yes or no.
00:17:08I was...
00:17:09What were you doing there?
00:17:10Doing where?
00:17:11Well, how do we know?
00:17:12Besides, I don't like your looks.
00:17:13Did you ever take a good look at yourself?
00:17:14Yeah, yeah.
00:17:15Did you ever take a look...
00:17:16Hey, now, wait a minute, you.
00:17:17Where were you last night?
00:17:19I spent the night with Shakespeare.
00:17:21Yeah?
00:17:22Where is he?
00:17:23He's dead.
00:17:24Dead?
00:17:25A murder mystery.
00:17:27Have you any idea who did it?
00:17:28Look, Shakespeare's been dead hundreds of years.
00:17:31Hundreds of...
00:17:32This is a fine time to call us in on the case.
00:17:34Say, but she couldn't have done it.
00:17:36How do you know?
00:17:37She can't be hundreds of years old.
00:17:39That's right.
00:17:40Mark that down, Garrity.
00:17:41Yeah, what do we do now, Chief?
00:17:42Well, you two have a look out there.
00:17:43I'll look here.
00:17:44Yeah.
00:17:45What's this?
00:17:58That's a door.
00:17:59It leads to the back stairs.
00:18:01Back stairs?
00:18:02Well, remind me to have a look up there sometime.
00:18:04That's an ironing board.
00:18:05Yes.
00:18:06That's an ironing board.
00:18:07Look.
00:18:08Do you want this thing?
00:18:09Certainly we want it.
00:18:10What do you think we iron on?
00:18:11Yeah, why...
00:18:12Well, here!
00:18:13Take it!
00:18:14Harrigan!
00:18:15Harrigan!
00:18:16Harrigan!
00:18:17Harrigan!
00:18:18Come in here!
00:18:19We found it!
00:18:20You found what?
00:18:21The mystery.
00:18:22Well, that's hash.
00:18:23Ain't that a mystery?
00:18:24It's a brick.
00:18:25It's a brick.
00:18:26It's a brick.
00:18:27It's a brick.
00:18:28It's a brick.
00:18:29It's a brick.
00:18:30It's a brick.
00:18:31It's a brick.
00:18:32It's a brick.
00:18:33It's a brick.
00:18:34It's a brick.
00:18:35It's a brick.
00:18:36It's a brick.
00:18:37I'm afraid, gentlemen, you won't find the gorilla in there.
00:18:41Why will we not find the gorilla in there?
00:18:45Now listen, you.
00:18:46I've hit you.
00:18:54Let that be a lesson to you.
00:18:56Perhaps you gentlemen had better look outside for clues.
00:19:00Maybe he killed Shakespeare.
00:19:02Mark that down, Garrity.
00:19:03Yeah.
00:19:08Look, how do you get out of here?
00:19:09That's what I'd like to know.
00:19:10Where's the back door?
00:19:11In back of you.
00:19:12In back of me.
00:19:13In back of me.
00:19:14In back of me.
00:19:15In back of me.
00:19:16In back of me.
00:19:17In back of me.
00:19:18In back of me.
00:19:19In back of me.
00:19:23Don't you recall that the paper said the gorilla always sends a warning to as many as half a dozen people at the same time.
00:19:28To sort of throw the police off.
00:19:29Maybe that's what he's doing now.
00:19:31Perhaps it's just a ruse.
00:19:32Well, let's hope so.
00:19:33You know, it's wonderful how much more optimistic a good dinner can make one feel.
00:19:38Shall we have liqueurs in the study?
00:19:48Uncle Walter!
00:19:49Take us, bring us alive, quickly!
00:19:50Jack!
00:19:52What is it?
00:19:53What happened?
00:19:54Uncle Walter, are you hurt?
00:19:56I know.
00:19:57No.
00:19:58I don't know what happened.
00:19:59Look here.
00:20:00It seems to have been thrown in through that window.
00:20:07Uncle Walter.
00:20:08What are we going to do?
00:20:11The first thing we're going to do, or rather Jack is going to do, is to take you away from here.
00:20:15Well, you're coming with us.
00:20:19It's him!
00:20:20It's him!
00:20:21It's him!
00:20:22Uncle Walter!
00:20:23Who is it?
00:20:24Oh, it's all right.
00:20:25He's one of those detectives.
00:20:26He'd give me a turn.
00:20:27Do you see that face?
00:20:28I'll bet when he gets drunk, snakes see him.
00:20:29What's the matter with you scaring us half to death?
00:20:30I'm just trying to let you know I'm not the gorilla.
00:20:32This is my niece's son.
00:20:33I'm not the gorilla.
00:20:34This is my niece, Miss Demby and her fiancé, Mr. Marsden.
00:20:36Harrigan, Mulligan and Garrity.
00:20:38This matter seems to be much more serious than I thought.
00:20:39I've just received this from the gorilla.
00:20:40A note.
00:20:41Who brought it?
00:20:42No one brought it.
00:20:43No one brought it.
00:20:44It was thrown into that window.
00:20:45Through that window?
00:20:46Through that window.
00:20:47Through that window.
00:20:48Through that window.
00:20:49He's right.
00:20:50Wait a minute.
00:20:51I'm just trying to let you know I'm not the gorilla.
00:20:53This is my niece, Miss Demby and her fiancé, Mr. Marsden.
00:20:55Harrigan, Mulligan and Garrity.
00:20:57This matter seems to be much more serious than I thought.
00:20:59I've just received this from the gorilla.
00:21:01A note.
00:21:02Who brought it?
00:21:03No one brought it.
00:21:04It was thrown in through that window.
00:21:06Through that window?
00:21:07Through that window.
00:21:12He's right.
00:21:13Wait a minute.
00:21:15This is my good ear.
00:21:19Oh, say, that's right.
00:21:20You can't kid us.
00:21:21We were outside patrolling the grounds.
00:21:23What do you mean?
00:21:24I don't know.
00:21:25It couldn't have come through that window.
00:21:26But why not?
00:21:27Well, I'll just show you.
00:21:28Stand back, ma'am.
00:21:32That's why.
00:21:33But it was wrapped around a stone.
00:21:34A stone?
00:21:35A stone?
00:21:36Well, why didn't you say so?
00:21:37Anyway, what do you know about this thing?
00:21:39Well, I don't know anything about it.
00:21:41We were preparing to leave the room and suddenly the lights went out and then there was a crash and...
00:21:45Oh, so the lights went out, huh?
00:21:47Make a note of that, Garrity.
00:21:48Right.
00:21:49You were outside a few minutes ago.
00:21:50Didn't you see anybody?
00:21:51Nobody but us.
00:21:52Say, this note says at midnight.
00:21:54At midnight?
00:21:55Yeah.
00:21:56What time is it now?
00:21:57It's 10.30.
00:21:58I got 11.10.
00:21:59I got 11.30.
00:22:00It's exactly 11.45.
00:22:02Remind me to put some hands on this watch.
00:22:04Yes.
00:22:05Yes.
00:22:06Well, make a note of that, Garrity.
00:22:07Right.
00:22:08Now, look.
00:22:09The gorilla's after Stevens.
00:22:10We'll have to keep an eye on him.
00:22:11Everybody enter the study.
00:22:12Come on, let's go.
00:22:13Uh, who said that if you give a criminal enough rope, he'll hang himself?
00:22:17You, Chief.
00:22:18Oh, that's where I heard it before.
00:22:19Oh, come on.
00:22:20Oh, let's go.
00:22:21What's going on?
00:22:22He's looking for a criminal.
00:22:23I've got to get him.
00:22:24Oh, that's where I was going.
00:22:25Oh, that was right.
00:22:26Oh, I'm so good.
00:22:27I'm so good.
00:22:28Let's go.
00:22:30Yeah.
00:22:31Yeah.
00:22:32Oh, I'm so good.
00:22:33I'm so good.
00:22:34And I'm so good.
00:22:35All right.
00:22:36I'm so good.
00:22:37I'm so good.
00:22:38All right.
00:22:39I know.
00:22:40I'm so good.
00:23:41I don't want anybody to move. Understand?
00:23:43Is it all right if I breathe?
00:23:45Yes, but come right back.
00:23:47Quiet!
00:23:48Personally, I don't believe the gorilla's coming here.
00:23:50Neither do I.
00:23:52Why not?
00:23:53I'll give you three good reasons, pal.
00:23:55Harrigan, Mulligan, and Garrity.
00:23:57It ain't enough.
00:23:59Now look here!
00:24:01I don't want to have any talks.
00:24:02Yeah, wait a minute, wait a minute.
00:24:03I'll handle this.
00:24:04Yeah, but sure.
00:24:05You have received the gorilla's warning, Walter Stevens.
00:24:12You've just five minutes to live.
00:24:14Oh, Uncle Walter.
00:24:15Jack.
00:24:16Excuse me.
00:24:17Here, here.
00:24:18Now, where are you going?
00:24:19I'm getting out of here.
00:24:20There's no door there.
00:24:21Oh, that's all right.
00:24:21I'll make one.
00:24:22Goodbye.
00:24:22Oh, get in.
00:24:23What the heck?
00:24:24Quiet!
00:24:25Quiet, everybody!
00:24:26Did you hear that?
00:24:44I wish I didn't.
00:24:46He's up there, men!
00:24:49Where are you going?
00:24:50I said he's up there.
00:24:51That's what I thought you said.
00:24:51Oh, quiet.
00:24:56All right, men.
00:25:02Follow me!
00:25:05Stick him up.
00:25:06I got you covered.
00:25:26What happened?
00:25:37What was it?
00:25:37Nothing.
00:25:38Nothing at all.
00:25:52Hey.
00:25:53Did you just pass here?
00:25:56Yes.
00:25:57Yes, of course.
00:25:58I brought a trunk down from the attic.
00:26:00A trunk?
00:26:01Yes.
00:26:02Were we here?
00:26:03I couldn't say.
00:26:05Well, maybe we're not here now.
00:26:08Maybe.
00:26:10Maybe.
00:26:13It's two minutes of twelve.
00:26:14What about Uncle Walter?
00:26:15Uncle Walter, yes.
00:26:17Uncle Walter, wait, Uncle.
00:26:18We're just going in.
00:26:20We'll...
00:26:21Now, everybody!
00:26:23Stay just where you are.
00:26:25Mulligan, you watch those doors.
00:26:26Gabby, you watch that one.
00:26:28Mr. Stevens, you've got nothing to worry about.
00:26:32I wish I thought so.
00:26:33Me too.
00:26:36You have one more minute, Walter Stevens.
00:26:39I can't see you.
00:26:40I can't see you.
00:26:40He's going in.
00:26:41I can't see you.
00:26:43See you.
00:26:43See you.
00:26:46I've seen Ti changing it.
00:26:50I'm wondering, too much, I still resistor.
00:26:52See you next time.
00:26:53But yeah, it feels so tight.
00:26:58Get out of the room.
00:26:58Don't tell me if you don't trust me.
00:27:00You keep in anymore.
00:27:00He can't see you.
00:27:00See you next time.
00:27:01Visit me on the ding!
00:27:02I will see you next time.
00:27:02I'll see you next time.
00:27:03I'll see you next time.
00:27:03You see you next time.
00:27:05As soon as you're heading here?
00:27:06I can't stand it any longer. I can't. You've got to call the police. You've got to.
00:27:14Mr. Stevens, I'm sorry, but Norma's right.
00:27:18I don't know what this is all about, but certainly if there's something to it, the police ought to know about it.
00:27:22I no longer know what to think. Perhaps you'd better.
00:27:26Hello? Hello?
00:27:31Phone, there's something wrong.
00:27:36Knock! Knock! Knock! Knock! Knock! Knock! Knock! Knock!
00:27:43Knock! Knock! Knock! Knock!
00:27:47Oh, you're scary! It's me!
00:27:49Uncle Walter! He's gone!
00:27:52Come on! How can he be gone when every door in this room has been locked?
00:27:56Morning, check those windows!
00:27:57Check the door!
00:28:01How did you get in here?
00:28:02Why? Through this door, sir.
00:28:03I'll can you when the doors are locked?
00:28:05I beg your pardon, it was not locked.
00:28:07I locked it myself.
00:28:09It is locked.
00:28:10That leaves us dead locked.
00:28:11It would be impossible for me to walk through the good work.
00:28:13Why?
00:28:14Termites do.
00:28:15Oh, this isn't getting us anywhere.
00:28:17Now leave everything to me.
00:28:19The gorilla ain't going to make a monkey out of me.
00:28:21Get here.
00:28:22Get here back now, you.
00:28:25Come on, boys.
00:28:26Where do these stands lead to?
00:28:27To the bedrooms.
00:28:28Mulligan County, you have a look upstairs.
00:28:29Mars, if you come with me, we'll have a look around the grounds.
00:28:31You two look in the servant's wing.
00:28:32With the gorilla prowling around, not me.
00:28:33Well, all right, then come with me.
00:28:34Oh, never mind.
00:28:35I'll take my chances with the other gorilla.
00:28:36Wait a minute.
00:28:37We can't leave Miss Denby here alone.
00:28:38Well, what are you waiting for?
00:28:39I don't know, but I wish I could think of something.
00:28:40Me too.
00:28:41Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
00:28:45What's wrong with you?
00:28:46I'll take my chances with the other gorilla.
00:28:47Wait a minute.
00:28:48We can't leave Miss Denby here alone.
00:28:52Well, what are you waiting for?
00:28:53I don't know, but I wish I could think of something.
00:28:55Me too.
00:28:56Oh, go on.
00:28:57Don't worry, darling.
00:28:58Oh, that's all right.
00:28:59I'll do all the worrying.
00:29:00Marsden, come with me.
00:29:04Oh, you first, sir.
00:29:06Thank you very much.
00:29:10What could this have all happened tomorrow?
00:29:11What difference would that make?
00:29:12Tomorrow's my day off.
00:29:15There was no lie down here.
00:29:16Why?
00:29:17Where did you go?
00:29:18What did you say, sir?
00:29:19Neither did he have the right answer.
00:29:20Thank you, sir.
00:29:21Oh, dear.
00:29:22Oh, dear, sir, I didn't get to you.
00:29:24Poor uncle Walter.
00:29:25Poor uncle Walter.
00:29:26Right from under our very eyes.
00:29:27I don't understand how he got out of here.
00:29:29All that's worrying me is how I'm going to get out of here.
00:29:32Oh!
00:29:33Oh!
00:29:34Oh, it's him!
00:29:35It's him!
00:29:36I've seen him!
00:29:37I've seen him!
00:29:38It's the corrupt.
00:29:39I've seen him!
00:29:40I've seen him!
00:29:41I've seen him!
00:29:42I've seen him!
00:29:43I've seen him!
00:29:44What's up?
00:29:45Not unless a hallucination has hair on it.
00:29:48Come on.
00:29:50Now, ready?
00:29:51Yeah, yeah.
00:29:54Snaggler.
00:29:55Is he dead?
00:29:57Who is he?
00:29:59I've never seen him before.
00:30:01Do you know him?
00:30:02No, sir, and this is no time for no introductions.
00:30:05He's not dead.
00:30:06Hey, I want that down, too.
00:30:07Right.
00:30:08Come on, darling, we're getting out of here.
00:30:09I'm afraid now, too, for you.
00:30:10I'm afraid now, too, for me.
00:30:13Oh, Jack, it's horrible.
00:30:14I don't know what to make of it.
00:30:16Now, all I can say is that Corinna's around here somewhere.
00:30:18And I know Mr. Stevens is around here somewhere.
00:30:20And if you all look, we'll find him somewhere.
00:30:23Where are you going?
00:30:23Somewhere.
00:30:25All right, men.
00:30:25Take him upstairs.
00:30:26Come on, Garrity.
00:30:27You, lead the way.
00:30:34I'll take care of him.
00:30:35Get a basin of hot water.
00:30:37Do you mind if I go out of town to get him?
00:30:39You and I have a look around the house.
00:30:40Wait a minute.
00:30:41There's something funny about this.
00:30:43Kitty said she saw the gorilla's arm.
00:30:45We open the closet and find the sailor's body.
00:30:48Now, how did the body get in there?
00:30:50And how did the gorilla get out without her seeing him?
00:30:51That's just what I was about to ask you.
00:30:55Stevens was sitting right here in this chair
00:30:58until the lights went out.
00:31:01Ooh, gorilla.
00:31:02La, la.
00:31:03Ha, ha, ha.
00:31:04Meh.
00:31:07That's funny.
00:31:08What's funny?
00:31:10Nothing.
00:31:10I think I'll have a look around this house.
00:31:12Have a look around the house?
00:31:13Yes, I have.
00:31:14Have a look around the house.
00:31:15Yeah.
00:31:16I'll go, too.
00:31:19Hey, that guy won't talk.
00:31:21Why not?
00:31:21He's still unconscious.
00:31:22You're unconscious and you talk.
00:31:24That's great, Chief.
00:31:25Mark that down, Garrity.
00:31:26Right.
00:31:26What do we do now?
00:31:27Well, first we'll have to reenact the crime.
00:31:29Well, how do we do that?
00:31:30Now, let's see.
00:31:31When the lights went out,
00:31:31Stevens was sitting in that chair.
00:31:33Yeah.
00:31:34You're Stevens.
00:31:35Sit down.
00:31:35I'm Stevens.
00:31:36Mulligan, close the doors.
00:31:37Hey, I'm Garrity.
00:31:42You're Stevens.
00:31:43Now, sit down.
00:31:44I'll wait for lights.
00:31:46One, two, three.
00:31:53Ah, it's no use.
00:31:55I don't know what works for Sherlock Holmes.
00:31:58I don't know why it won't work for me.
00:32:01That's what I've been trying to tell you.
00:32:03He's gone.
00:32:04Is he gone?
00:32:05Gone.
00:32:06Garrity.
00:32:07Garrity!
00:32:08Now we have two mysteries to solve.
00:32:11Look, I've got an idea.
00:32:12What is it?
00:32:12If we can find out how Garrity disappeared,
00:32:14we'll find out what happened to Stevens.
00:32:15That's a very good idea.
00:32:17Should have thought of that myself.
00:32:18All right, we'll reenact the crime.
00:32:20Sit down.
00:32:21But I'm not tired.
00:32:22You have to be tired to sit down?
00:32:23I do.
00:32:25You make me tired!
00:32:26Well, then, why don't you sit down?
00:32:28If I sit down, who's going to work the lights?
00:32:30I never thought of that.
00:32:31Yeah, well, sit down.
00:32:32Yeah, sit down.
00:32:33Sit down.
00:32:33Yeah.
00:32:34Oh, sir, forget the limits.
00:32:36One, two, three.
00:32:46Mulligan!
00:32:47Whoa!
00:32:49Mulligan!
00:32:51Did you lose something?
00:32:53Yes, Mulligan and Garrity.
00:32:54Make it over there.
00:32:55Now, look.
00:32:57Sit down.
00:32:58Oh, I don't want to sit down.
00:32:59You don't have to, Wanda.
00:33:00You'll sit down and like it.
00:33:02Well, all right.
00:33:02I'll sit down, but I won't like it.
00:33:03Yeah.
00:33:05What are you going to do?
00:33:06What I'm going to do ain't important.
00:33:09Well, what am I going to do?
00:33:11That's just what I want to find out.
00:33:13One, two, two, two, two, two, two, three.
00:33:37I don't want to hear somebody scream.
00:33:44Well, if you didn't, you ought to have your ears cleaned out.
00:33:47Say, where's Mr. Harrigan?
00:33:49The detective!
00:33:50He's disappeared!
00:33:51Disappeared?
00:33:52What a pity.
00:33:53Pity?
00:33:54Why, it's uncanny.
00:33:57How did you get in here?
00:33:59We, why, you?
00:34:00Oh, oh!
00:34:02Oh, don't be frightened.
00:34:04You're safe in me.
00:34:05Safe in you, my eye.
00:34:06Who wants to be safe?
00:34:08We, now look.
00:34:09I'm very sociable.
00:34:11I want to go with this people.
00:34:32All right, call me.
00:34:52Bye, bye.
00:34:57Bye, bye.
00:34:59Bye, bye.
00:35:02Come on, come on.
00:35:20Hey, what's the matter? What's happened?
00:35:22Oh, look.
00:35:24I'm standing here,
00:35:26when all of a sudden everything goes black.
00:35:29The next thing I know,
00:35:31I'm here.
00:35:33Sorry.
00:35:35Hello.
00:35:37Hello, I'm sorry I kept you eating.
00:35:39No, no, you turn on Willow Drive.
00:35:41Off Highway 22 and hurry, will you?
00:35:44Look, it ain't human, I tell you.
00:35:46It ain't human.
00:35:48What isn't human?
00:35:50For a guy to be standing here one minute,
00:35:52and the next minute, he's gone.
00:35:55Who's gone?
00:35:56I'm gone, they're gone, everybody's gone.
00:35:58It don't make sense.
00:36:00It certainly doesn't.
00:36:01Will you have a cigarette?
00:36:02I don't mind if I do it.
00:36:04He kidnapped me right from under his very eyes.
00:36:06Who does?
00:36:07The gorilla!
00:36:08Hey.
00:36:10Who are you?
00:36:11What do you want?
00:36:12What are you doing here?
00:36:13Listen, old man, you got me all wrong.
00:36:14I just came in to use the telephone.
00:36:15You see, my car broke down.
00:36:16That phone?
00:36:17Yeah.
00:36:18Look.
00:36:19That phone is out of water.
00:36:20Is it?
00:36:21Yes.
00:36:22Yes.
00:36:23Number, please.
00:36:24Well, if you'll excuse me, I'll be on my way.
00:36:25Now, wait a minute, you.
00:36:26You're the guy we're looking for.
00:36:27You're the gorilla.
00:36:28Surely you don't think I'm the gorilla, do you?
00:36:29I stopped thinking two hours ago.
00:36:30But you don't understand.
00:36:31I don't have to understand.
00:36:32Shall I try it?
00:36:33Oh, you've tried enough.
00:36:34Now, get him up.

00:45:48Yes, the gorilla. He's in there.
00:45:50I can hear him breathe.
00:45:52That's you.
00:45:54Well, open it, open it.
00:46:10Have you men been drinking?
00:46:12No, but it's a good idea.
00:46:32What was that?
00:46:36Norman, where are you?
00:46:38Norman, where are you?
00:46:42Jack.
00:46:44A couple of you, get after him, quick.
00:46:48You heard him, Mulligan.
00:46:49So did you.
00:46:50Well, never mind that. You take the hall. I'll go this way.
00:46:53I'll stay here.
00:46:59Is something wrong?
00:47:00Where were you?
00:47:01I just went to get some tea, sir.
00:47:03Didn't I tell you to stay here with Miss Denby?
00:47:05I'm very sorry, sir, but I thought perhaps a little tea.
00:47:07What writer you got to think? We're not even thinking.
00:47:11Miss Denby might have been killed.
00:47:12It's fortunate she wasn't, sir.
00:47:16Why is it that something always happens when you're not here?
00:47:19An unfortunate coincidence, sir.
00:47:24What did you find?
00:47:25An empty closet with Harrigan in it.
00:47:33Harrigan, Harrigan, Harrigan.
00:47:34Wake up.
00:47:35Get up.
00:47:36The gorilla, the gorilla.
00:47:37Did you get him?
00:47:38Did you get him?
00:47:39No, he got you.
00:47:40Well, it won't happen again.
00:47:41Okay, man.
00:47:42Follow me.
00:47:43Go down and see where these stairs lead to.
00:47:44Who, me?
00:47:45Who, me?
00:47:46Yes, you.
00:47:47Oh, me.
00:47:48It's awful dark.
00:47:49I should have brung my glasses.
00:47:50You never wear any glasses.
00:47:51That's right.
00:47:52I forgot.
00:47:53What's that funny tapping?
00:47:54It's my knees.
00:47:55It's a fine time to be scared.
00:47:56You try and think of a better time.
00:47:57Yeah.
00:47:58Well..
00:47:59Oh!
00:48:01Ohh!
00:48:03Oh!!!

00:48:06See, you never wear any glasses.
00:48:07It's right.
00:48:08I forgot.
00:48:10What's that funny tapping?
00:48:11Yeah.
00:48:12It's my knees.
00:48:13It's the fine time to be scared.
00:48:14If!
00:48:15You try and think of a better time.
00:48:16Yes, well...
00:48:18Hold in.
00:48:19Oh!
00:48:20M2-M2-M2-M4.
00:48:22Eh!
00:48:23Oh!
00:48:24Look, look, I've had about enough of this.
00:48:34Me and the Gorilla is going to have a showdown right now.
00:48:37That's right, Chief.
00:48:38I'm telling you, I can't stand it.
00:48:40Now, don't argue with me.
00:48:42I know what I'm talking about.
00:48:43I'm going in there and we'll look over this house.
00:48:46You'll take orders from me, understand?
00:48:48Now, I'm going to tear this house apart.
00:48:49Tear it limb from limb.
00:48:51Now, come on, follow me.
00:48:54I'll show this mug who's a mug.
00:48:58You fellas, stick close behind me.
00:49:01If anything happens, leave it to me.
00:49:04I'll do all the talking.
00:49:05Come on, man.
00:49:07People running in here out today, all day long.
00:49:10I've never seen anything like this in all my life.
00:49:12First, where are you going?
00:49:21What's eating you?
00:49:24What have you got there?
00:49:33That dame must know something or she wouldn't be running away like that.
00:49:36Make an old of that, Garrity.
00:49:37What's going on?
00:49:38What's going on?
00:49:53Garrity!
00:49:58What are you doing?
00:50:01Garrity, what are you doing?
00:50:04No.
00:50:04Good evening.
00:50:06Good evening.
00:50:08What do you want?
00:50:10Don't be frightened.
00:50:12Frightened?
00:50:14Who's frightened?
00:50:16Don't you come near me or I'll wrap this thing around your neck like it was a pretzel.
00:50:20There's nothing to worry about.
00:50:22That's what you think.
00:50:24May I give you some advice?
00:50:26No.
00:50:28No.
00:50:30No.
00:50:32If I were you, I'd go to my room and stay there.
00:50:34Oh, yes, sir. I was just planning on that.
00:50:36Wait a minute. Where have you been?
00:50:38No place. Honest, sir. I was just getting ready to go to town.
00:50:40Good.
00:50:42Don't open that.
00:50:44Why not?
00:50:46The gorilla. He's in there.
00:50:48Don't be silly.
00:50:54Come on now. Get going.
00:50:56Yes, sir. I'm practically there.
00:51:02No.
00:51:04Yes.
00:51:06No.
00:51:07Oh, my God.
00:51:37It ain't a man. It's a gorilla. We saw it and we felt it.
00:51:50When I tell you the gorilla is a man, I ought to know. I've read enough about him.
00:51:53But how could a monkey have possibly written those notes, Uncle Walter?
00:51:56Maybe it's got an education.
00:51:58Poe! Poe! Poe!
00:52:02Where is he? Have any of you seen him?
00:52:04Who? Poe!
00:52:05Who's Poe? Poe's the gorilla.
00:52:06The gorilla? Oh, you know him too, huh?
00:52:08Know him. I've trained him since he was that high.
00:52:10You're just the one we're looking for.
00:52:12Don't any of you understand? Poe is a gorilla. A trained gorilla.
00:52:15A real gorilla?
00:52:16Sure a real gorilla.
00:52:17So we don't know what we're talking about, eh?
00:52:19Yeah, we know a monkey when we see one.
00:52:22Listen, this is serious. Poe ain't no pet.
00:52:24There's no telling what he's liable to do when I ain't around.
00:52:27Especially with women. He hates women.
00:52:28Well, what's he doing here? What are you doing here?
00:52:30We was hired to come here.
00:52:32We're working at the county fair.
00:52:33Yesterday, a guy comes along, says he wants me to bring Poe here.
00:52:36He says he's given a party, wants us to put on a rack.
00:52:39Who hired you?
00:52:40I don't know. I don't know nothing.
00:52:42All I know is I bring Poe here, we're waiting out in the garage like he tells me.
00:52:45Waiting to do our stuff.
00:52:47All of a sudden, somebody gives me a clunk over the head and I wake up to a lady's boudoir.
00:52:50But the gorilla, how did he get loose?
00:52:51You're asking me. That's what I want to find out.
00:52:54Listen, this is serious. We've got to find him.
00:52:56We got her. Somebody's liable to get killed.
00:52:57Them notes from the gorilla. Five will get you 50. They're addressed to me.
00:53:01Notes? Poe can't write no notes. Even I don't know how to write.
00:53:05Now look, the next time I book up against that gorilla, I'm telling you, I'll hear...
00:53:08I'll... well... I'll... you'll never know.
00:53:12He'll do it.
00:53:13Listen, have you seen him?
00:53:14Yes, he's in the kitchen.
00:53:15Which way is the kitchen?
00:53:16Through the panel. We'll go with you.
00:53:21Listen, you fellas better wait here. There's no telling what that able to do.
00:53:24Oh, Jack. I'm so confused. A real gorilla and those notes and...
00:53:31Listen to me, everybody. The gorilla has done his work.
00:53:39Walter Stevens is dead. You will find his body in the garage.
00:53:43Oh, Jack.
00:53:45All right, everybody. Follow me to the garage. Come on.
00:53:50Come on. Come on.
00:53:54He's gone. Poe's gone.
00:53:57I tell you, he's in the kitchen. The kitchen's a wreck. He must be on a rampage.
00:53:59Out of my way, brother. I've got my own brothers to worry about.
00:54:02All right, all of you. Out in the garage. Come on.
00:54:06Uh, I'll stay here and protect Ms. Denby.
00:54:08This way, please.
00:54:13I'll never forgive myself for not calling the police.
00:54:16Why call the police with us around, lady?
00:54:18You couldn't save us for water.
00:54:20We couldn't, eh?
00:54:21Well, you didn't, did you?
00:54:22Well, we, eh, that's right. We didn't.
00:54:26I've got to find out how that gorilla gets in and out of here.
00:54:29There must be a secret spring around here someplace.
00:54:33I think I'll look in the back of these books.
00:54:34Oh, yes.
00:54:35Please.
00:54:42Hey.
00:54:43Oh, yeah.
00:54:44Yeah.
00:54:46Oh, yeah.
00:54:50Hey.
00:54:53Hey.
00:54:55Hey.
00:54:56Hey.
00:54:57Hey.
00:54:58Hey.
00:54:59Hey.
00:55:00Hey.
00:55:00Hey.
00:55:01Let's go.
00:55:32Help!
00:55:35Help!
00:55:37Somebody!
00:55:38Get me out of here, somebody!
00:55:41Don't tell me she's the gorilla.
00:55:42I told you I didn't like her looks.
00:55:44Oh, wise guy.
00:55:45Come on, we gotta find the bus.
00:55:48I wonder what I do with them keys.
00:55:50Look under the mat.
00:55:53That's funny.
00:55:54Oh, very funny.
00:55:55Will you get me out of here?
00:55:57Listen, what are you doing in Poe's cage?
00:55:59What do you think I'm doing?
00:56:00Waiting for someone to feed me peanuts?
00:56:02Get me out of here!
00:56:04Don't you know Poe hates women?
00:56:06So does Kipling.
00:56:07So what?
00:56:08Will you please get me out of here?
00:56:11Open!
00:56:12All right, all right.
00:56:13Go get it.
00:56:14Poe hates women.
00:56:17Say, wait a minute.
00:56:18I think this was a trick to get us out of the house.
00:56:20Come on.
00:56:22Who are you, anyway?
00:56:23I'm the gorilla's keeper.
00:56:24Are you the damn giving me a crock of the head?
00:56:26No, but it's a good idea.
00:56:27Oh, yeah?
00:56:29Look.
00:56:44He's got her.
00:56:45Wait, don't be near him.
00:56:46He'll drop her.
00:56:47Poe!
00:56:48Bring it down, Poe.
00:56:49Bring it down to me.
00:56:51Down, Poe.
00:56:52Down to the ground.
00:56:53Put it down, Poe.
00:56:56Down, Poe.
00:56:57Down to the ground.
00:56:58Poe.
00:56:59Stop it, Poe.
00:57:00Bring it down, Poe.
00:57:01Bring it down to me.
00:57:02Put it down, Poe.
00:57:03Come on.
00:57:04Poe, come back here.
00:57:05I'll be catching.
00:57:06Come on.
00:57:07Come on.
00:57:13Poe, Poe, come back here.
00:57:27Oh, thank you, thank you.
00:57:53Oh, he hit me again.
00:57:56Right here, he hit me again.
00:58:01Oh, let him alone.
00:58:05That's a fine way to treat me.
00:58:08After I give you the best years of my life,
00:58:11you act like that.
00:58:12Listen here.
00:58:15No, no, no kisses.
00:58:17He might have killed somebody.
00:58:19What do you mean, might have?
00:58:26No!
00:58:27It's all right, lady.
00:58:28I got him.
00:58:29You can keep him.
00:58:30Okay.
00:58:31Scram and take this character with you.
00:58:33No, he's only kidding.
00:58:34Just for that, he gets no C-A-N-D-Y.
00:58:36Oh, that's just C-A-N-D-Y.
00:58:38Sorry if I caused you any trouble, folks.
00:58:41Just for that, I don't read you to funny papers tonight.
00:58:44I'll put you in bed without any supper, you bad boy.
00:58:49You wait till I get you home.
00:58:53You have to wait till last it is.
00:58:56Go on.
00:58:59Look at that.
00:59:02Why, it's somebody's coat.
00:59:04All right, come on out of there, buddy.
00:59:06So that's how I got clunked on the head.
00:59:08Come on, come on out of there, you.
00:59:10All right, come on.
00:59:11Look, it's opening.
00:59:12What?
00:59:13Come on, come on.
00:59:14Oh, so it's you.
00:59:16Do you know him?
00:59:17Do I know him?
00:59:18He's the guy I caught using the telephone.
00:59:19There's no law against that.
00:59:20Never mind law, buddy.
00:59:21Get him up.
00:59:22Now, just a minute.
00:59:23Don't you think you're a little premature?
00:59:24Premature?
00:59:25Well, I can't remember that far back.
00:59:27Just who are you?
00:59:28I'm Detective Coletti, an investigator for the Securities and Exchange Commission.
00:59:33And I'm on the trail of the gorilla just as you are.
00:59:36A detective?
00:59:37How do we know that?
00:59:38Yes.
00:59:39Well, what were you doing in there?
00:59:42Investigating.
00:59:43I've been on this case for some weeks now.
00:59:45And I've discovered a little about the construction of this house that my good friend here don't seem to have found out yet.
00:59:53What do you mean?
00:59:55This house is a maze of secret panels.
00:59:58Now, undoubtedly, the voice of the gorilla came through that radio from someplace right in this house.
01:00:02That means that if we find the wire leading away from the radio...
01:00:04We'd at least find the gorilla's hideout.
01:00:06Say, what's going on here?
01:00:08What?
01:00:09Well, here it is.
01:00:10Here's the wire going right in here.
01:00:11It's fine.
01:00:12Now, let's see.
01:00:15Uh-huh.
01:00:16Uh-huh.
01:00:23Just as I thought.
01:00:25Here's the wire.
01:00:26Now, by tracing this, I think we may find the answer to this entire riddle.
01:00:31The wire goes in here.
01:00:33Back of this wall is the man we want.
01:00:34Yeah.
01:00:35Well, make a note of that, Garrett.
01:00:36Are you all armed?
01:00:37Yes, I'm armed.
01:00:39Shh.
01:00:40Quiet, you.
01:00:41Here it is.
01:00:46There is your microphone.
01:00:47And as I expected, there is your gorilla.
01:00:49Mr. Stevens the gorilla?
01:00:50Well, sure.
01:00:51I could have told you that all the time.
01:00:52I guess the party is over, my gorilla friend.
01:00:54But who tied him up like that?
01:00:55I don't know.
01:00:56He figured the game was up and that this would throw off suspicion.
01:00:59This is a homemade job.
01:01:00A child could have done it.
01:01:01Oh, he's preposterous.
01:01:02Don't believe him.
01:01:03I never saw this man before in my life.
01:01:04It's insane.
01:01:06Oh.
01:01:07Now, what's that?
01:01:09Oh.
01:01:10Why is it with all the men in the house they have to leave us here with you?
01:01:13Quiet.
01:01:14Oh.
01:01:15Why, it's Mr. Stevens.
01:01:17Alias the gorilla.
01:01:18The gorilla?
01:01:19Him?
01:01:20Oh, I'll never trust another man if I live to be a thousand.
01:01:22You can make that two thousand.
01:01:23Uncle Walter the gorilla.
01:01:24I don't believe it.
01:01:25I think I can make it very clear.
01:01:26Oh, well, sure we can.
01:01:27Now, first of all.
01:01:28What's that?
01:01:29Oh, I didn't hear a thing.
01:01:30Neither did I, but what was it?
01:01:31It's so kind of a thing.
01:01:32I don't know.
01:01:33I don't know.
01:01:34I don't know.
01:01:35I don't know.
01:01:36I don't know.
01:01:37I don't know.
01:01:38I don't know.
01:01:39I don't know.
01:01:40I don't know.
01:01:41I don't know.
01:01:42I don't know.
01:01:43Neither did I, but what was it?
01:01:44You'll soon find out.
01:01:46Hey, what is this?
01:01:48Who hit me?
01:01:49What's going on around here?
01:01:51It's that man again.
01:01:52Oh, there you are.
01:01:53Kidnapped.
01:01:54Kidnapped by the gorilla.
01:01:55Not kidnapped by the gorilla, Mr.
01:01:57Conway.
01:01:58A.P. Conway.
01:01:59The A.P. stands for ape.
01:02:01Mr. Conway, this gentleman is the gorilla.
01:02:03The gorilla?
01:02:04But if Uncle Walter's the gorilla,
01:02:06I don't understand why he should send himself those notes of warning.
01:02:09For two reasons.
01:02:11To keep you here and to throw off suspicion from himself.
01:02:14Mr. Envy, under the terms of your father's will, if anything were to happen to you,
01:02:19who would inherit your estate?
01:02:21Uncle Walter.
01:02:22My hunch was right.
01:02:24Your uncle brought you here tonight to kill you for your money.
01:02:27Well, at least he had a reason.
01:02:29So that's why he wouldn't let us call the police.
01:02:31That's exactly why.
01:02:32But what about these men, these private detectives?
01:02:35They almost speak for themselves.
01:02:37Do you think if Stephen's life had actually been threatened,
01:02:40he would have called in three more arms such as these for protection?
01:02:44Hey, wait a minute. I resent that.
01:02:49But I tell you, I saw the gorilla right there in that closet.
01:02:52I saw his hand and his arm and it was no optical confusion.
01:02:55What you saw was this sleeve.
01:02:58Another ingenious little invention of Mr. Stephen's.
01:03:02Very cute little idea.
01:03:04Well, that about clears the whole matter out.
01:03:07And since it stopped raining, I think I'd better go.
01:03:11You're okay, buddy.
01:03:12You're okay. It's all right.
01:03:13Congratulations. Let me congratulate you. You were wonderful.
01:03:19Oh, no you don't, buddy.
01:03:21Okay, folks, say howdy to the gorilla.
01:03:24Howdy.
01:03:25All right, give out.
01:03:26Or this moron is going to blow your brains out.
01:03:28Well, you see, it was over there.
01:03:30All of you stick your hands up.
01:03:32I'm the gorilla, all right.
01:03:34But the cops haven't been able to get me,
01:03:36so don't you half-wits get any crazy notions.
01:03:38And as for Mr. Stevens, he's just as crooked as I told you he was.
01:03:41The trouble with him is he talks too much and too loud.
01:03:44I got tipped off on what was going to happen here tonight.
01:03:46How he was going to pretend to be me.
01:03:48I was going to get the $250,000,
01:03:50and at the same time let him get the blame for all the gorilla murders.
01:03:53Well, you better be careful.
01:03:56I'm a little nervous tonight.
01:04:00Cut that gun.
01:04:01And I advise you not to move.
01:04:07Hello.
01:04:08Police station, quickly.
01:04:09What is this?
01:04:10I thought the phone was out of order.
01:04:11Maybe he paid his bill.
01:04:12Hello.
01:04:13This is Walter Stevens speaking.
01:04:14Sent a squad car to my house.
01:04:16We've got the gorilla.
01:04:17Things are so mixed up around here that even the gorilla doesn't know who the gorilla is.
01:04:21He's the gorilla.
01:04:22He's the gorilla.
01:04:23Do I know what I'm doing?
01:04:24Look, what's going on here?
01:04:26Don't look so sad, darling.
01:04:28Your uncle isn't a crook.
01:04:30And our estate's all safe and sound now.
01:04:32You know, you never can tell this is liable to wind up to be a mystery.
01:04:35You see, the gorilla murders were threatened to bankrupt our insurance company.
01:04:38Most of the victims were clients of ours.
01:04:40So Conway, our special investigator, cooked up his little scheme to trap the killer.
01:04:44I'm sorry I had to frighten you, dear.
01:04:47And you too, Kitty.
01:04:48Oh, I wasn't frightened.
01:04:49I was numb.
01:04:50You fellas are certainly great detectives.
01:04:52Oh, yes.
01:04:53We could have told you that.
01:04:54Did you know that Clotty was the gorilla all along?
01:04:57Sure we did.
01:04:58No, we didn't.
01:04:59When did you find out he was the gorilla?
01:05:00When I shook hands with him.
01:05:01I don't get you.
01:05:02Well, you see, I was a window trimmer in a department store.
01:05:05And I ought to know a phony feel when I feel one.
01:05:08We'll never be able to thank you, Mr. Harrigan.
01:05:10Oh, well, that's all right.
01:05:11I understand you two are getting married soon.
01:05:13Well, if you call tomorrow soon.
01:05:14Well, remember, if you have any trouble with her.
01:05:15Our specialty is following wives.
01:05:16You know where to send the cheque?
01:05:17And be sure it's certified.
01:05:18From a contended bank.
01:05:19Bye.
01:05:20Bye.
01:05:21Bye.
01:05:22Bye.

01:05:29Bye.
01:05:30Bye.
