00:00:00The End
00:00:30The End
00:01:00The End
00:01:29Father, which art in heaven, hallowed be thy name, thy kingdom come, thy will be done,
00:01:53in earth, as it is in heaven.
00:01:58Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.
00:02:07Lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.
00:02:12For thine is the kingdom, the power, and the glory forever.
00:02:17Amen.
00:02:31I'd like you to have my notes and records.
00:02:34Of all the newspapers, yours was the only one which was fair to me.
00:02:40Thanks, doctor.
00:02:41Don't go.
00:02:43I'm sorry.
00:02:43I'm sorry.
00:03:14Friday the 13th.
00:03:16This morning, my old friend George Kingsley was conducting his class at the University of Newcastle.
00:03:27And in 1547, Sir Joshua Peachtree wrote,
00:03:31Thou who breakest glass will find. Fate can be, O most unkind.
00:03:37Under ladder walkest thee, most unlucky thou wilt be.
00:03:40Each Stred Friday do take care, else thou fallest down the stair.
00:03:46And with that little epic, Sir Joshua proved that he was a poet of the first rank.
00:03:51In fact, I should say he possibly was the rankest poet that England ever turned out.
00:03:59Just a moment, please, just a moment.
00:04:02This being the end of the semester, I have an announcement to make that I'm sure will give you a great deal of pleasure.
00:04:09Although I myself am sorry to tell you that I may not be with you next term.
00:04:16Today I must leave to appear before the Inquisitional Board of Regents of a very large university in the East.
00:04:23Very large university indeed.
00:04:26How many of the dunce that has been sent to Rome excels the dunce that must stay at home.
00:04:36I sincerely hope the board does not like me.
00:04:39I'll try and be back next term. Oh, my umbrella.
00:04:42Dr. Kingsley, I wish you the best of luck, but...
00:04:45Thank you, Edmund.
00:04:46Yeah, we hope to see you next semester, Doctor.
00:04:48We'd better hurry, Professor. Dad will be waiting to take us to the station.
00:04:51Have a good trip, Professor.
00:04:52Thank you very much.
00:04:53Professor, English won't seem the same without you.
00:04:57Well, that's very nice of you indeed, Tom.
00:04:59Come on, Professor.
00:05:01You know, Jean, I'm going to miss all this.
00:05:04But most of all, I'm going to miss your father.
00:05:07A brilliant man, Jean.
00:05:09It distresses me to think that such a great brain surgeon should be so utterly wasted in Newcastle.
00:05:14Newcastle is a very welcome port in a very bad storm.
00:05:18Why, if it hadn't been for you, Professor, I don't know what we would have done.
00:05:21Oh, Jean, my dear.
00:05:22Well, Margaret, you don't know how sorry I am to see you and George leave.
00:05:32You've befriended Jean and me in so many ways since we came to live here.
00:05:35We're going to miss you too, Ernst.
00:05:36Thank you, Margaret.
00:05:37Oh, here they are.
00:05:38Hello, darling.
00:05:39Hello, Margaret.
00:05:40Ernst, if I could only drive, I'd never impose on you like this.
00:05:42It's a pleasure, George.
00:05:44Rather a mixed one, you know. We hate to see you go.
00:05:47Hello, Dad.
00:05:48Oh, I knew I'd forgotten something.
00:05:50Not as usual. What now?
00:05:52Ernst, would you mind stopping at the students' cleaning shop?
00:05:54My one and only hat is there.
00:05:56And a professor must have dignity when he goes to the city.
00:06:05There they are, George.
00:06:06Mrs. George, may I hear?
00:06:07George!
00:06:08Oh, yes.
00:06:09Hurry, I'll miss the train.
00:06:10All right, darling.
00:06:11Oh, Professor, don't let them sell you one of those fancy feathers.
00:06:13I won't, Jean, I won't.
00:06:15And George.
00:06:16George.
00:06:17George.
00:06:18Yes, dear.
00:06:19Now, watch the traffic, won't you?
00:06:21Be careful, please.
00:06:22Yes, darling.
00:06:23I don't worry.
00:06:24Careful now, please.
00:06:49Mr. Red Cannon now belongs to the history of crime. Past tense.
00:06:54But what about our door? We ain't got it back yet.
00:06:55Yeah.
00:06:56Yeah, how about it?
00:06:57Mystery of all, it would have been poor business to kill Red unless I knew how to locate the money. Turn back to the city.
00:07:04Ernst.
00:07:05Ernst.
00:07:06He's going to be all right, my dear. Now, you go home with Jean and I'll call you later.
00:07:10We'll be waiting again. Come on.
00:07:11Come on.
00:07:12Come on.
00:07:13Come on.
00:07:16OK.
00:07:17Okay.
00:07:30Go home.
00:07:35Ambulance, huh?
00:07:50Uh-huh. Some men were shooting at you. Who were they?
00:07:54Just a few of my pals.
00:07:58How bad am I hurt?
00:07:59A few minor cuts on the scalp, that's all.
00:08:04Any pain?
00:08:05No, not much.
00:08:08Who's the other customer?
00:08:10The man you ran down. He's dying.
00:08:15Softie, huh?
00:08:17Did those guys get away?
00:08:19Yes.
00:08:20Then pull the bell cord of this bus. This is where I get off.
00:08:23And I'm going rat-killing.
00:08:26Hey, I'm tied down. What is this, a pinch?
00:08:28Turn that thing off. I can't stand it. It's driving me crazy.
00:08:36Hey.
00:08:49No use, Sovek.
00:08:50Kingsley has compound frontal and parietal fracture.
00:08:53And severe concussion of the cerebrum.
00:08:56Just a matter of hours.
00:08:58Or minutes.
00:08:58Pulse 65. He's in a coma.
00:09:12All right, nurse. You can go. I'll stay.
00:09:30Thanks.
00:09:31What's the matter with me, Doc?
00:09:44Thanks.
00:09:44I can't feel nothing. My legs are there, but I can't feel them.
00:09:53Your spine is broken.
00:09:55You're paralyzed.
00:09:59Now pull me through, Doc, will you?
00:10:01Pull me through and I'll pay you anything.
00:10:02I'll pay you for it.
00:10:04And let's do it.
00:10:05Well, it's OK.
00:10:06It's okay.
00:10:06Purl Up I'll pay you for it.
00:10:19Oh, my God.
00:10:21Have a night.
00:10:30Boy, I need to tell you much more.
00:10:30Pues, you must be man.
00:10:32the only possible way to save george kingsley's life is by a brain transplantation an operation
00:10:40i performed successfully on animals this is a dangerous and illegal operation but a chance
00:10:45to make a great scientific discovery and perhaps save my friend's life
00:11:02and how long will his head be bandaged oh not long now dr souvac yes two gentlemen want to see you
00:11:25who are they they are detectives i believe i'll see them excuse me please i'll be right back george
00:11:35a miraculous recovery mrs kingsley amazing
00:11:40it's canon all right
00:11:44well doctor the head injuries caused death
00:11:52and many complications his spine was broken we did all we could for it don't feel badly
00:11:58about it doctor he wasn't worth it he had nothing but the electric chair to live for
00:12:02did he say anything before he died about money for instance not that i know of thanks doctor
00:12:22it's a good one
00:12:29it's a good one
00:12:31it's a good one
00:12:37it's a good one
00:12:43Five hundred thousand dollars.
00:12:45With that money, I could build my own laboratory
00:12:47and continue with my experiments.
00:12:51Kingsley is convalescing
00:12:53and seems to show some of Red Cannon's traits.
00:12:55Does the Cannon brain in Kingsley's head
00:12:57retain the knowledge of the hidden money?
00:12:59I don't know.
00:13:01I don't know.
00:13:03I don't know.
00:13:05I don't know.
00:13:07I don't know.
00:13:09I don't know.
00:13:11I've been waiting to see you, Ernst.
00:13:15I'm worried about George.
00:13:17He just doesn't seem himself.
00:13:19Why, he's getting stronger every day, isn't he?
00:13:21Physically, yes.
00:13:23But his mental condition doesn't seem right.
00:13:25He's irritable.
00:13:27Flies into a rage for no reason at all.
00:13:29That isn't like George.
00:13:31No, it isn't.
00:13:33He has been acting strangely lately.
00:13:35I don't think I'd be too alarmed about it, though, if I were you.
00:13:39Well, I hope you're right.
00:13:41I think so.
00:13:43You're late today, Ernst.
00:13:45Come and sit down and talk to me.
00:13:47I'm feeling very low.
00:13:48Will you have some tea?
00:13:49Perfect.
00:13:50The trouble with you is you're feeling too well.
00:13:52Too well?
00:13:54I used to think that a long period of convalescence
00:13:56would be like an ocean voyage.
00:13:58That I'd have a chance to read all the books I want to
00:14:00that I haven't time to ordinarily.
00:14:02But nothing seems to interest me.
00:14:05A boring period, convalescence.
00:14:08Yes, indeed it is.
00:14:11I'm afraid I've got to go to New York for a few days, George.
00:14:14You've got to?
00:14:15Yes, a little business for the hospital.
00:14:17Well, that's nice.
00:14:18I must say, what am I going to do for companionship?
00:14:21Well, why not come with me?
00:14:23Come with you?
00:14:25Oh, no, I couldn't do that.
00:14:26New York's too big, too noisy.
00:14:28I never have wanted to go there.
00:14:31And yet, it's the very thing you need, George.
00:14:34You've had your fill of peace and quiet.
00:14:37You'll find New York exciting, stimulating.
00:14:40Just the thing to lift you out of the doldrums.
00:14:43As my doctor, do you prescribe it?
00:14:46As your doctor, I insist on it.
00:14:49Very well.
00:14:51I'll tell Margaret to pack.
00:14:53Oh, no, George. Let's go alone.
00:14:55Alone?
00:14:57In New York, without Margaret?
00:14:59What you need is a radical change.
00:15:02Well, perhaps you're right, Ernst.
00:15:05I've been like a bear lately.
00:15:07I'm quite sure she'd be glad to be rid of me for a time.
00:15:11New York.
00:15:13New York, I wonder...
00:15:16I'm taking Kingsley to Red's old environment.
00:15:25In fact, to the Midtown Hotel which Cannon used as his hideout.
00:15:29Good afternoon, Channel.
00:15:43We'd like adjoining rooms.
00:15:45Yes.
00:15:46Yes.
00:15:47505 and 506, if they're available. Are they?
00:15:50Well, yes, they're available.
00:15:53Uh, you've, uh, been with us before, sir?
00:15:56Why, no, of course not.
00:15:59But I, I like a corner room with three windows and a fire escape.
00:16:03This way, gentlemen.
00:16:16Well, well.
00:16:31Uh, I'm in the next room, Ernst.
00:16:47Uh, will you bring the black bag in here, please?
00:16:50Let's go.
00:16:51Let's go.
00:16:52Come on.
00:16:53Let's go.
00:17:14You sure picked a room with the history, Mr. Kingsley.
00:17:17My subject.
00:17:18I don't mean that.
00:17:19I'm talking about Red Cannon.
00:17:22He hid out in these rooms for nearly six months from cops, G-men, and his own gang.
00:17:27Nobody in the hotel suspected him, but his gang got wise and Red tried to run out.
00:17:31They caught up to him in some small town in the sticks.
00:17:34Imagine when we found out who he was and him with nearly a million bucks hidden away.
00:17:39Say, the manager locked himself in here and took these rooms apart.
00:17:42Yes, yes, yes.
00:17:43But he's still the manager, so I guess he didn't find it.
00:17:45Anyway, I made plenty out of cannon.
00:17:48I was the only one he allowed up here.
00:17:50I had a special way of knocking.
00:17:58Yes, sir.
00:17:59That's it.
00:18:03Thanks.
00:18:15Ernst, I'm going to freshen up a bit.
00:18:31And then let's go out.
00:18:40Let's, uh, do the town.
00:18:43You know what I mean.
00:18:45A good dinner and perhaps a bottle of wine.
00:18:51Splendid, George.
00:18:53I'll get changed and then we'll go.
00:18:55I chatter, chatter, as I flow, to join the brimming river.
00:19:03For men may come and men may go, but I go on forever.
00:19:09The canon brain remembers this hotel.
00:19:15Will it also remember Red's friends?
00:19:18Miller, Kane, DeVore and Marnie.
00:19:25Will the Cannon brain remembers this hotel?
00:19:28Will it also remember Red's friends?
00:19:31Miller, Kane, DeVore and Marnie.
00:19:35I'm taking Kingsley to the Club Royale where he'll see Sonny Rogers,
00:19:39Cannon's former sweetheart.
00:19:42My kisses captured your lips
00:19:47But never reached your heart
00:19:53Last night I thought you loved me dearly
00:20:04And I was...
00:20:07Old fashioned. George, I'm ready for anything, too.
00:20:11Yes, sir.
00:20:14But now you're as far
00:20:20As far as the tidiest star
00:20:27I find the singer rather interesting, don't you, George?
00:20:31Who is she, Ernst? I seem to know her.
00:20:34Could she be one of my former students?
00:20:39I really am surprised, George, that you're pretending to know the singer.
00:20:48Oh, come, come, come now, Ernst. I'm a college professor, not a college boy.
00:20:52All these people here are on pleasure bent.
00:20:55And pleasure brings as surely in her train remorse and sorrow
00:20:59And vindictive pain, as William Cowper says.
00:21:08Oh, pardon me.
00:21:11Sure.
00:21:12Why, what's wrong, George?
00:21:28My head hurts.
00:21:30That pain again.
00:21:32I can't stand it.
00:21:34We'll leave instantly.
00:21:45Yes? Yes, the next train leaves at noon.
00:21:48Do you wish me to make a reservation?
00:21:50Yes, please.
00:21:52And send up a boy to help me pack, will you?
00:21:55Well, good morning, George. You slept late.
00:22:02But my sleep doesn't seem to refresh me.
00:22:10Ernst, we're old enough friends that we don't have to deceive each other.
00:22:15Why do you say that?
00:22:16Then tell me.
00:22:18What is the matter with me?
00:22:20My sleep only seems to tire me.
00:22:23And I'm haunted by the most horrible dreams.
00:22:28A perfectly normal reaction to the shock of your accident, George.
00:22:32Come in.
00:22:39What do you mean by that ridiculous tap, tap, tap, tap, tapping?
00:22:43Why don't you knock the door like anybody else?
00:22:46Anything you say, sir.
00:22:48You wanted me to pack?
00:22:49Yes.
00:22:50Yes.
00:22:52I don't know what I'm doing here anyway.
00:22:55Ernst.
00:22:57I'm going home.
00:22:59I need Margaret.
00:23:02I don't think I've tried to leave today, George.
00:23:06Now, you can stop the packing.
00:23:08Yes, sir.
00:23:09I don't think you're well enough to travel.
00:23:15Now, let's wait and see how you feel tomorrow.
00:23:19Red.
00:23:20Red Cannon.
00:23:21You were the leader of a gang.
00:23:22They tried to kill you.
00:23:23You came back to get revenge.
00:23:24Red.
00:23:25Red Cannon.
00:23:26You were the leader of a gang.
00:23:27They tried to kill you.
00:23:28You came back to get revenge.
00:23:31Red.
00:23:32Red.
00:23:33Do you remember the name?
00:23:34Red.
00:23:35Do you remember the name?
00:23:36Red.
00:23:37Red Cannon.
00:23:39Red Cannon.
00:23:40You were the leader of a gang.
00:23:42They tried to kill you.
00:23:43You came back to get revenge.
00:23:46Red, do you remember the name Marnie?
00:24:05Marnie.
00:24:08He's the one who took your place.
00:24:11Marnie, Miller, Cain, De Vaughan.
00:24:16Why did they try to kill you, Red?
00:24:20To get your money?
00:24:24But they didn't find it, did they?
00:24:28It's safe, just where you hid it.
00:24:32Where is it, Red?
00:24:34Marnie.
00:24:37Miller.
00:24:40Cain.
00:24:42De Vaughan.
00:24:46You've been ill, Red.
00:24:52I remember that, that hick town.
00:24:56You're the doc, ain't you?
00:24:57Yes.
00:24:59Say.
00:25:00Say.
00:25:01My back's better.
00:25:02You cured me?
00:25:03Yes.
00:25:04You're perfectly well now.
00:25:05Thanks, Doc.
00:25:06I won't forget it either.
00:25:07You've been ill, Red.
00:25:10I remember that, that hick town.
00:25:12You're the doc, ain't you?
00:25:13Yes.
00:25:15Say.
00:25:17My back's better.
00:25:19You cured me?
00:25:20Yes.
00:25:21You're perfectly well now.
00:25:22Thanks, Doc.
00:25:23I won't forget it either.
00:25:27Midtown Hotel, huh?
00:25:30How'd I get here?
00:25:31You asked me to bring you.
00:25:32I must have been out of my head.
00:25:33Like every copper in town will be looking for me.
00:25:34I've got something to tell you, Red.
00:25:50Oh yeah?
00:25:51What?
00:25:53You were smashed up in an accident, you remember?
00:25:55What?
00:25:57You were smashed up in an accident, you remember?
00:26:00I had to operate to give you another body.
00:26:03You had to do what?
00:26:05What are you talking about?
00:26:25Why did you do this to me?
00:26:30It was the only way to keep you alive.
00:26:33Oh.
00:26:39Doc, you're a genius.
00:26:42But you could have given me a better chassis.
00:26:45I never saw plastic surgery like that before.
00:26:47I used the body of the other man who was dead.
00:26:49It was the only way to save you.
00:26:53Say, wait a minute.
00:26:56Nobody will know me like this.
00:26:59Why, I can do anything.
00:27:02Who was the other guy?
00:27:04He was a professor of English Literature.
00:27:07English Literature?
00:27:11Well, how are you, Prof?
00:27:14You're now Professor George Kingsley,
00:27:16and you teach in the university at Newcastle.
00:27:19What a disguise.
00:27:22What a break for, uh, Red Cannon.
00:27:31Come in.
00:27:35Telegram, sir.
00:27:39Hey, what is...
00:27:40Next time, you do as you're told.
00:27:41When you come to my room, knock like this.
00:27:44Now, scram.
00:27:45Yes, sir.
00:27:46Next time.
00:27:50Next time.
00:27:51Red, I think.
00:27:55Hello.
00:27:56Meet me.
00:27:57Go, I see you.
00:27:58Here, we'll be right.
00:27:59I'll see you.
00:28:00Let a break.
00:28:01Come in.
00:28:02Maybe, let's go.
00:28:03It's me.
00:28:04Here, I'll see you.
00:28:05Come in.
00:28:06We'll be right here.
00:28:07Come in.
00:28:08You can see me.
00:28:09Come in.
00:28:10I'll see you.
00:28:11Good, let a break.
00:28:12I'll see you, Steve.
00:28:14I think...
00:28:44I think...
00:29:14I think...
00:29:44Good morning, sir.
00:29:57I'll take them.
00:29:59And, uh, here's the morning paper, sir.
00:30:01Compliments of the house.
00:30:03Say, you sure get around, mister.
00:30:04From the looks of those clothes last night, it would seem like you fell into a cement mixer.
00:30:07That'll be all.
00:30:08Yes, sir.
00:30:44Good morning.
00:31:02Yes.
00:31:07How do you feel?
00:31:09Not very well.
00:31:11I'm afraid coming to New York was too exciting.
00:31:13I...
00:31:14I feel as if...
00:31:17As if the life were drained out of me.
00:31:20You'll be all right as soon as you've had a little rest.
00:31:24Well, perhaps so.
00:31:25Here's a curious thing, George.
00:31:32It seems that Louis DeVore, one of the Red Cannon gang, was found early this morning in a deserted building, dying from the effects of a brutal beating.
00:31:42His back had been broken.
00:31:44Good heavens, Ernst.
00:31:46Why on earth bother me with that gruesome stuff?
00:31:50Sorry, George.
00:31:56Things have taken a dangerous turn.
00:31:58Kingsley has killed DeVore.
00:32:00While in this environment, I never know when the murderous brain of Red Cannon may take possession of Kingsley.
00:32:05But I will not stop my experiments.
00:32:07I must find out where the cannon money is hidden.
00:32:09Let's go.
00:32:39All ready, George?
00:33:09Come on.
00:33:21Oh, Miss.
00:33:22Yes, sir?
00:33:23I wonder if you'd be kind enough to open my friend's door for me.
00:33:26I'm a little worried about him. He hasn't been very well.
00:33:29Yes, sir. I ain't been feeling so well myself lately.
00:33:39Yes, sir.
00:34:01Evidently, my friend has gone out.
00:34:09You can wait for me.
00:34:25No, thank you.
00:34:27I was here the other night with a friend.
00:34:29The other middle-aged gentleman?
00:34:31That's right. Has he been here tonight?
00:34:33I don't think so.
00:34:34Oh, wait a minute. There was a gentleman that looked like him at the bar.
00:34:37At the bar?
00:34:38Oh, no, no, no.
00:34:39On second thought, he couldn't have been your friend.
00:34:41And besides, that man left a little while ago, sir.
00:34:43Oh.
00:34:51I don't think Sunny was pleased to see us.
00:34:53Why are we wasting time fooling around here?
00:34:55Didn't you see that newspaper picture of the boy's battered body?
00:34:58Say, maybe they'll kill us after us, too.
00:35:00A good deduction.
00:35:02But who would want us dead except some friend of Red's?
00:35:05And who would know about Red Cannon's friends better than Sunny?
00:35:09That's right.
00:35:10Tell your nerves to stop doing nip-ups.
00:35:11Marnay'll handle this.
00:35:12You will handle this, Kane.
00:35:13I've seen you trying to take Red's pace here.
00:35:15Go on.
00:35:17I've seen you trying to take Red's pace here.
00:35:18Go on.
00:35:19I've seen you trying to take Red's pace here.
00:35:20Go on.
00:35:24I, just it Jetzt.
00:35:28I've seen you trying to eat shit every night.
00:35:30Go on.
00:35:32Come on.
00:35:34Come on.
00:35:37Come on.
00:35:39Come on.
00:35:40Come on.
00:35:44Come on.
00:35:46Come on.
00:35:47Come on.
00:35:48I didn't have any part of DeBoer's killing.
00:35:52Nobody said you did.
00:35:54And everything's just lovely.
00:35:56I'd like to see you at your apartment after you get through.
00:35:59Maybe if we put together what you know about Red and what I know,
00:36:02it'll add up to some money.
00:36:04Say, if I knew anything about a half a million bucks,
00:36:06do you think I'd be working in this joint?
00:36:09We'll go over all that later.
00:36:18Blanket?
00:36:20Sure.
00:36:22It's yours.
00:36:25Tonight.
00:36:42Hey, what is this?
00:36:44Get out of my way.
00:36:46Get out of my car.
00:36:52What do you want?
00:36:54You ought not to have to think very hard after what happened to DeBoer.
00:36:58Who are you?
00:37:16Who is that sent you that money...
00:37:18to get out of that trouble in Chicago?
00:37:19Oh, Red.
00:37:23You're alive?
00:37:26Who is it?
00:37:27Who is it sent you that money to get out of that trouble in Chicago?
00:37:30Rand.
00:37:39You're alive?
00:37:46Yes.
00:37:47I'll be right up.
00:37:56I'll be right back.
00:38:05Fred!
00:38:12Well, of all the...
00:38:13Don't speak.
00:38:14Don't even move.
00:38:16Just let me look at you.
00:38:20It's great to be back, Sonny.
00:38:23Why did you move the piano?
00:38:25I always liked it in that corner.
00:38:26How do you know about that?
00:38:27Surely you didn't think I'd forget in two short months.
00:38:30Are there any cigarettes in the door?
00:38:32Yes.
00:38:37You look good, darling.
00:38:39Come on.
00:38:40Let's have a drink.
00:38:55Nothing touched, eh?
00:38:56Good girl.
00:38:59Nothing touched, eh?
00:39:00Good girl.
00:39:25Well, here we are.
00:39:29How do you like the trimmings?
00:39:42Let me put it on.
00:39:43Put it on.
00:39:53How did you get it?
00:39:55Just picked it up.
00:39:58Well, you don't seem very glad to see me.
00:40:02You're afraid.
00:40:05What are you afraid of?
00:40:06I'm...
00:40:07I'm not afraid.
00:40:19Great Cannon must be jumping with joy in his grave the way his boys are getting knocked off.
00:40:23All right, boys.
00:40:24About the DeVore and Cain murders.
00:40:29You know, they were both Cannon's men.
00:40:31We've always believed that his own gang was responsible for Red's death.
00:40:34Can some friend of his be systematically killing off as murderers?
00:40:37A dead gangster has no friends.
00:40:39I want you to go out and find Marnie and Miller.
00:40:42Yes, sir.
00:40:43Okay.
00:40:44Take a couple of men with you and check the Rich Manor apartments.
00:41:14two more men with you.
00:41:15Yes.
00:41:16With you all.
00:41:17You're sure?
00:41:18This is Marnie's apartment.
00:41:31You're sure?
00:41:32This is Marnie's apartment.
00:41:39Oh, good afternoon.
00:41:41I'm sorry, but Mr. Marnie is not at home.
00:41:44Do you mind if we wait for him?
00:41:46Not at all.
00:41:48Are you a friend of Mr. Marnie?
00:41:50In a way, I'm just waiting till he comes back.
00:41:53Who are you?
00:41:54What?
00:41:55We're from police headquarters.
00:41:56Oh, I see.
00:42:00My name is Kingsley.
00:42:02I'm a professor of English at the University of Newcastle.
00:42:05From Newcastle?
00:42:06Yes.
00:42:07You the professor was hit the time Red Cannon was killed?
00:42:09That's right.
00:42:11What business could you have with Marnie?
00:42:13You'd better come along with us and explain that to the D.A.
00:42:41Good morning, Sonny.
00:42:42Good morning.
00:42:43What's the matter?
00:42:44Aren't we welcome?
00:42:46Cain was here last night.
00:42:48Well, I...
00:43:02uh...
00:43:03Marnie.
00:43:04What's the matter?
00:43:05Aren't we welcome?
00:43:12So Cain was here last night.
00:43:14Well, I, uh, had a date with him, but he didn't show up.
00:43:18The police found his buddy this morning strangled.
00:43:20Yeah, and his back was broken, just like divorce.
00:43:23Well, I don't know anything about it.
00:43:24No? If Cain wasn't here, where did you get that watch?
00:43:27Well, I expected him, but somebody else came and gave me the watch.
00:43:30Who?
00:43:31He was Red Cannon.
00:43:33What did he drive up in?
00:43:35A hearse?
00:43:37Try again.
00:43:39And be a little more believable.
00:43:41I'm trying.
00:43:42Hey, Red was here.
00:43:43Look.
00:43:44Red always killed his cigarettes this way.
00:43:46Now, you've got to be alive to do that.
00:43:48Red's been dead since two months.
00:43:49That's what I thought.
00:43:50But last night this man came here, and he didn't look like Red, but...
00:43:56This is the first thing he did when he came in.
00:43:59He knew everything that only Red knew.
00:44:05He even acted and talked like Red.
00:44:07Probably somebody Red coached carefully.
00:44:10Somebody from the tick town who got close to him before he died.
00:44:14If he knows so much, he may know where Red hid the money.
00:44:16That would be his payoff.
00:44:18He gets Red's money for killing all of us.
00:44:20Where does he live?
00:44:21Where does he live?
00:44:22I suppose you're going to say room 505 at the mid-bound.
00:44:26Who left his matches here?
00:44:28Asked of all.
00:44:29And Cain.
00:44:41Um...
00:44:42Any word of Professor Kingsley?
00:44:43Nothing, Doctor.
00:44:44Hmm.
00:44:51Dad.
00:44:54Margaret was so worried.
00:44:55We talked it over and decided to come on to New York.
00:44:57Ernest, I just had to see George.
00:44:58Where is he?
00:44:59Well, he's out.
00:45:00I...
00:45:01I don't quite know where.
00:45:02But I...
00:45:03I thought you were always with him.
00:45:05I'm afraid you're not going to like this, Margaret.
00:45:07But I'm going to be quite blunt with you.
00:45:09When George was convalescing at home, you were a marvelous nurse.
00:45:12Well, I did what I could.
00:45:13Exactly.
00:45:14Well, he turned his head.
00:45:15You were there to adjust the pillow.
00:45:17If he reached for a glass of water, you were porting it for him.
00:45:19I'm sorry.
00:45:20I couldn't have done more.
00:45:21But that was just the trouble.
00:45:22If you'd kept it up, he'd have been a permanent invalid.
00:45:25Well, why didn't you tell me?
00:45:27Well, naturally.
00:45:28I didn't want to hurt your feelings.
00:45:30And fortunately, George himself rebelled in time.
00:45:32And that's why you brought him to New York alone with you.
00:45:35Of course, my dear.
00:45:36He had to have a change.
00:45:38Has it helped?
00:45:39Is he better?
00:45:40Yes, he is.
00:45:41But we must still be careful.
00:45:43Now, I suggest that you allow him to remain here till he's perfectly ready to go home of his own accord.
00:45:48And don't try to see him.
00:45:50Oh, but I...
00:45:51Now, you and Jean go up to your rooms and get some rest.
00:45:53And take the first train out for Newcastle in the morning, huh?
00:45:56Well, if it's best for him.
00:45:58All right.
00:45:59Believe me, it is.
00:46:00But there's George.
00:46:01Margaret, you said you wouldn't try to see him.
00:46:03Oh, but...
00:46:04Now, please, will you take it to our room?
00:46:05Oh, please, but Dad!
00:46:06Jean!
00:46:07Jean!
00:46:08I assure you, what I'm doing is for his own good.
00:46:09Now, please believe me.
00:46:16Who were the women?
00:46:17Never mind that.
00:46:18Why, what's happened to your shoulder?
00:46:19I got nicked.
00:46:20Who were those women?
00:46:21My daughter and your wife.
00:46:23My... my wife?
00:46:24Oh, Kingsley, sir.
00:46:26Well, get them out of here.
00:46:27I don't want any dames around here.
00:46:28Let me see.
00:46:29You've been shot.
00:46:30Yeah.
00:46:31Fix it up, will you?
00:46:32How'd you get it?
00:46:33The coppers shot me.
00:46:34It's only a scratch.
00:46:35How'd you get it?
00:46:36Well, don't ride me.
00:46:37It's your fault anyway.
00:46:38Mine?
00:46:39Yeah.
00:46:40You told me to use this Kingsley gag.
00:46:41Well, I pulled it and it didn't work.
00:46:42Where were you?
00:46:43In Marnie's apartment.
00:46:44They tried to question Professor Kingsley and I wouldn't stand for it.
00:46:46You killed them?
00:46:47Well, what do you think?
00:46:48Come on, get to work.
00:46:49You fool.
00:46:50They'll catch you before we get the money and you...
00:46:52You...
00:46:53What money?
00:46:56What do you know about the money?
00:46:58Why, I...
00:46:59You know too much, Doc.
00:47:02Just a minute, Red.
00:47:04You kill me, what becomes of you?
00:47:07You think you're Red Cannon, don't you?
00:47:10But whose body are you wearing?
00:47:11Well, you told me...
00:47:12Exactly.
00:47:13George Kingsley's.
00:47:14Professor of English Literature at Newcastle.
00:47:17How'd you like to be George Kingsley for good?
00:47:19What do you mean?
00:47:20You're walking around in Kingsley's body, all right.
00:47:23But part of your brain is his and you can't control it.
00:47:26That's not true.
00:47:27You killed the war.
00:47:28Last night, you murdered Cain in his car outside the club.
00:47:32I saw it.
00:47:33Remember?
00:47:34But do you remember how you woke up?
00:47:37In this very room, you woke as Kingsley.
00:47:40Complaining of nightmares, not knowing why you were here.
00:47:43I can't think.
00:47:44What's happened to my brain, I can't remember.
00:47:46Of course you can't.
00:47:47And if I hadn't forced you back into Red Cannon,
00:47:49you'd have gone to Newcastle as Kingsley for the rest of your life.
00:47:52Stop it.
00:47:53I can make you forget you have a rare Red Cannon.
00:47:55Stop it, I tell you.
00:48:02I'll cut you in on the dough.
00:48:04You get your share.
00:48:06From now on, you do exactly as I say.
00:48:12Okay, Doc.
00:48:18Now I'll fix that shoulder.
00:48:24It's no use, Jean.
00:48:25I'm not going home in the morning.
00:48:26Not unless George goes with me.
00:48:27But you told Dad...
00:48:28I don't care what I said.
00:48:29When George came in, your father practically ran me out of the room.
00:48:31He's trying to conceal something.
00:48:32No, Margaret.
00:48:33I'm going to see George now.
00:48:34And if Ernst tries to stop me, I'll call a New York doctor.
00:48:36Margaret, I'm sure you're worrying over nothing.
00:48:38But I'll go talk to Dad.
00:48:40There you are.
00:48:41Okay.
00:48:42Nice job, Doc.
00:48:43It's not safe to stay here too long.
00:48:44You get that money tonight.
00:48:45Maybe you're right.
00:48:46I'll get going right away.
00:48:47You...
00:48:48Professor King...
00:48:49Dad!
00:48:50Jean.
00:48:51Dad?
00:48:52He didn't even know who I was.
00:48:53Oh, nonsense, Jean.
00:48:54And the way he looked.
00:48:55He was like Professor Kingsley.
00:48:56And yet...
00:48:57Dad, what is back of all this?
00:48:58I'm sure you are.
00:48:59I'm sure you are.
00:49:00Okay.
00:49:01Nice job, Doc.
00:49:02It's not safe to stay here too long.
00:49:03You get that money tonight.
00:49:04Maybe you're right.
00:49:05I'll get going right away.
00:49:06You...
00:49:07Professor King!
00:49:08Dad!
00:49:09Dad!
00:49:10He didn't even know who I was.
00:49:11Oh, nonsense, Jean!
00:49:12And the way he looked.
00:49:13He was like Professor Kingsley, and yet...
00:49:16Dad, what is back of all this?
00:49:17Haven't you guessed?
00:49:19The operation I performed was a brain transplantation.
00:49:25Then his brain...
00:49:26Is partly the brain of Red Cannon.
00:49:29Dad.
00:49:32Your best friend.
00:49:34Oh, you couldn't.
00:49:35I saved his life, didn't I?
00:49:37Well, what's the good of that if you've turned him into a criminal?
00:49:39My only thought was to keep him alive.
00:49:41I swear it.
00:49:42But when I saw signs of the gradual awakening of the cannon...
00:49:45brain...
00:49:47I knew I'd made a great discovery for science.
00:49:49Cannon's a gangster.
00:49:51Murderer.
00:49:52All right.
00:49:53But in the meantime, I've proved what I always knew to be true.
00:49:56Transplanted human brain cells will live and function.
00:50:00What a triumph!
00:50:02Think of it!
00:50:03I'm not a scientist, Father.
00:50:05I can only see you destroying your best friend.
00:50:07Oh, it's too late to think of that.
00:50:08But you must.
00:50:09Think what you're doing to him and Margaret.
00:50:10Oh, he'll be all right.
00:50:11As soon as I get him back to Newcastle, he'll forget all about this.
00:50:13But I can't do that until...
00:50:15Until what?
00:50:16Until the experiment is completed.
00:50:19You've got to take him home tomorrow.
00:50:21Why?
00:50:22Because it's the only human thing to do.
00:50:24Margaret is suspicious.
00:50:25She threatens to call in a New York doctor.
00:50:27Then the truth is bound to come out.
00:50:28Don't forget that.
00:50:29You had no legal right to operate.
00:50:30It means prison.
00:50:31And every chance you might have had for a career in this country is lost.
00:50:34Very well.
00:50:52Very well.
00:50:55Tell Margaret we'll go back to Newcastle in the morning.
00:51:01I'll tell her.
00:51:08Gang killer slays two detectives.
00:51:10You'd think the police would catch that killer by now.
00:51:13A guy like that must be a lunatic.
00:51:15If I got one look at him, I could tell his type.
00:51:18The same, sir.
00:51:34Oh, hello, darling.
00:51:36I sent you a message.
00:51:37I was coming back to your dressing room.
00:51:38Going home and pack.
00:51:39Pack?
00:51:40Where are we going?
00:51:41South America, for a starter.
00:51:45Have we, um, money enough?
00:51:47All the money in the world.
00:51:48Understand?
00:51:49All the money in the world.
00:51:50Yes.
00:51:51Let me have the keys to your car.
00:51:52I don't want any taxi drivers hanging around.
00:51:53Yes, sure.
00:51:54Hear from me in an hour, and I'll have everything we need.
00:51:55Be ready.
00:51:56What do you think?
00:51:57He wants me to run away with him.
00:51:58He's going to pick up the money now.
00:51:59Good.
00:52:00I knew he would, sooner or later.
00:52:01Good.
00:52:02I knew he would, sooner or later.
00:52:03We'll get it.
00:52:04And split it three ways.
00:52:05Well, that's all right with me.
00:52:06That's all right with me.
00:52:07I'm going to try to get you in an hour, and I'll have everything we need.
00:52:08You ready?
00:52:09What do you think?
00:52:12He wants me to run away with him. He's going to pick up the money now.
00:52:15Good. I knew he would. Sooner or later. We'll get it. And split it three ways.
00:52:19Well, that's all right with me. I'll point him out to you.
00:52:42There he is at the bar. Just getting up.
00:52:47He's taking my car. It should be easy to follow.
00:53:08How do you figure this guy?
00:53:10The way Red got hit, he couldn't have told everything he knew before he died.
00:53:13I only know that Red is planted in a graveyard, and I'm not afraid of anyone else.
00:53:17Me neither.
00:53:19Knowing this guy knows everything Red knew, and he gives me the creeps.
00:53:23He's leading us to a half million dollars.
00:53:40I'm somewhere else Owen.
00:53:43I'll try to save you for a living man.
00:53:47Oh.
00:53:56μ΄ped down.
00:53:57Oh, my God.
00:54:27We'll take that box.
00:54:57Go ahead and shoot, if you want to dive 200 feet for it.
00:55:04The money is what we want.
00:55:06Hand it over, and we'll give you a break.
00:55:09Okay.
00:55:11Come and get it.
00:55:13Keep him covered.
00:55:27Come and get it.
00:55:29Come and get it.
00:55:31Come and get it.
00:55:33Come and get it.
00:55:35Come and get it.
00:55:37Come and get it.
00:55:39Come and get it.
00:55:41You never saw the day I couldn't break you apart, Miller.
00:56:11Come on, Miller.
00:56:41Get me something to open this.
00:56:43Hurry.
00:56:44Go get me a drink.
00:56:46Then we're on our way.
00:56:48Sonny.
00:56:49Come on.
00:56:50Come on.
00:56:51Come on.
00:56:52Come on.
00:56:53Come on.
00:56:54Come on.
00:56:55Come on.
00:56:56Come on.
00:56:57Come on.
00:56:58Come on.
00:56:59Come on.
00:57:00Come on.
00:57:01Come on.
00:57:02Come on.
00:57:03Come on.
00:57:04Come on.
00:57:05Come on.
00:57:06Go get me a drink.
00:57:07Then we're on our way.
00:57:09Sonny.
00:57:10Come on.
00:57:11The split on this now is two ways.
00:57:17Sonny.
00:57:18Get in there.
00:57:38Get in there.
00:57:52You're late.
00:57:56Where's Molly?
00:57:57I don't know.
00:57:59I haven't seen him.
00:58:03Why is the bar open?
00:58:05I was getting a drink.
00:58:06I was almost packed and...
00:58:08just waiting for you.
00:58:11Why are you staring at me?
00:58:13What's happened to you?
00:58:14Marnie and Miller followed me from the nightclub.
00:58:18Now I know why you didn't want me to come back to your dressing room.
00:58:21They were there.
00:58:29Red, what are you looking for?
00:58:31Don't you believe me?
00:58:32I haven't seen Marnie for six months.
00:58:38I haven't seen Marnie for six months.
00:58:39I haven't seen Marnie for six months.
00:58:40Fred, look at me.
00:58:41There's never been anybody but you.
00:58:42Believe me.
00:58:43What were you saying?
00:58:45I haven't seen Marnie for six months.
00:58:46I haven't seen Marnie for six months.
00:58:59What were you saying?
00:59:00What were you saying?
00:59:01Let me out!
00:59:31I tell you where the money is. I hear it. I hear it. It's in the oven, Red.
00:59:35It's in the oven. Let me out.
00:59:38I tell you where the money is.
00:59:41It's in the oven. Let me out.
00:59:44Let me out.
00:59:46I'll be for help.
00:59:54Let me out.
00:59:56It's in the oven.
01:00:06Taxi.
01:00:07Yes, sir.
01:00:12Where to?
01:00:13That's near the airport.
01:00:14Yes, sir.
01:00:15Pardon the order.
01:00:19A hot driver that works all night shouldn't have kids.
01:00:22All night you work your heart out for the little woman and the little darling.
01:00:25All day long while you're trying to snatch 40 winks.
01:00:28The old lady slams the doors.
01:00:30The kids chase each other in out of the room.
01:00:32One kid jumps up on the bed, hops on your stomach.
01:00:35Daddy, tell me a story.
01:00:37Tell me a funny story.
01:00:39I knock him out of the bed.
01:00:40He screams.
01:00:41The old lady calls me a tramp.
01:00:43Home sweet home.
01:00:44I'll kill him.
01:00:45Shut up.
01:00:46I don't like gabby taxi drivers.
01:00:55You can't miss them.
01:00:56I'm no longer.
01:00:57I'll kill you.
01:00:58That's a good sign.
01:00:59Boy, it won't be the first one.
01:01:00I'm ready.
01:01:01I'm ready.
01:01:02I won't be the first one.
01:01:03You'll kiss his head.
01:01:04The new woman will be to the last one.
01:01:05I won't be the second one.
01:01:06I'll be when I'm going.
01:01:07You'll be the first one.
01:01:08I'll be the second one.
01:01:09Get back on the Declaration of Chilmur.
01:01:10I'm going to take a look at him.
01:01:23Wesley Airport.
01:01:31Wesley Airport.
01:01:36What?
01:01:37Wesley Airport.
01:01:41I'm going to drive you to the Midtown Hotel.
01:01:45Midtown Hotel.
01:01:48It's a crazy business, but it's a living.
01:01:58Midtown Hotel.
01:02:01480.
01:02:05Keep the change.
01:02:06Hey, you forgot your box.
01:02:21A thousand bucks.
01:02:22George.
01:02:36Ernst.
01:02:37Something's happened to my mind.
01:02:39I found myself in a taxi.
01:02:45And I don't know how I got there.
01:02:47Ernst.
01:02:48Just a minute, George.
01:02:53Do you know Margaret and Gene are here?
01:02:55Margaret?
01:02:56Here?
01:02:57Here?
01:02:58Here?
01:02:59Yes.
01:03:00Now drink this.
01:03:03I want you to get some rest before you see them.
01:03:04Now don't worry about a thing.
01:03:09Tomorrow, everything will be all right.
01:03:10Now don't worry about a thing.
01:03:11Tomorrow, everything will be all right.
01:03:15Alright.
01:03:22Good morning, sir.
01:03:23Hello, sir.
01:03:24Goodbye, hon.
01:03:25I'm waiting for you.
01:03:26That was nice.
01:03:27I'm going to take a break.
01:03:28You're going to take the break.
01:03:30Tomorrow, everything will be all right.
01:04:00I hope you enjoyed your visit, Mr. Kingsley.
01:04:03Yes, very much indeed, thank you. May I have the bill?
01:04:06Oh, no, George, allow me.
01:04:08If it was understood, you would be my guest, you know.
01:04:10Mr. Kingsley? Yes, that's my name.
01:04:13The Chief of Police would like to see you.
01:04:15Oh, really? But I don't even know him.
01:04:17We'll introduce you.
01:04:18What can the Chief of Police possibly want?
01:04:20Well, there can't be any charge against Professor Kingsley, surely.
01:04:23The Chief will explain all that. Who are you?
01:04:25I'm his doctor.
01:04:27He's just recovering from an extremely serious illness.
01:04:30Come along.
01:04:31I'd like to go, too, if you don't mind.
01:04:32All right. Come on.
01:04:34Well, uh, you go ahead to the station, dear.
01:04:37Yes, but, George...
01:04:38No, no, no, it's all right. We'll meet you there.
01:04:39Goodbye.
01:04:46This is Mr. Kingsley, Chief, and his doctor.
01:04:49Sit down, gentlemen.
01:04:51Oh, thank you very much.
01:04:53The cab driver tried to change this at the bank.
01:04:56The circumstances are so unusual, we're holding him for investigation.
01:04:59A thousand...
01:05:01Look, Ernst.
01:05:02A thousand dollar bill. They really exist.
01:05:04The cab driver said you gave him that for a tip.
01:05:06The cab driver's?
01:05:08Well, that's a kingly gesture.
01:05:10I'm sure you honor me, but a thousand dollars?
01:05:12Why, that's almost six months' salary.
01:05:14Bring the driver in.
01:05:16What's your occupation, Mr. Kingsley?
01:05:18I'm, uh...
01:05:20I'm a professor of English literature.
01:05:22And I might add, a very underpaid professor.
01:05:25Come on, I gotta get out of here.
01:05:26I tell you, I gotta get out of here.
01:05:28In there.
01:05:29My wife, you will like having me stay in the jail.
01:05:31Is this the man that gave you that thousand dollar bill?
01:05:37How do you do?
01:05:41Him?
01:05:42Does he look like a grand note to you?
01:05:45The guy I was talking about was a gangster.
01:05:48Who pushed me in the face.
01:05:51Can you imagine him pushing me in the face?
01:05:54Oh, no.
01:05:56That's all, Mr. Kingsley.
01:05:58Sorry to have inconvenienced you.
01:06:00Thanks for coming in.
01:06:02We've barely time to catch the train, George.
01:06:04Yes, sir.
01:06:08Back in Newcastle, the red cannon brain has become completely dormant.
01:06:13Kingsley has returned to his classroom.
01:06:15And now I can actually bring to a realization my plans for a great laboratory
01:06:20and give the world the benefit of my scientific knowledge.
01:06:25Thus, you see, the Elizabethan novel was a minor passing form
01:06:28and fed the drama of the period, which, I might add, devoured it evidently.
01:06:33I'm going to let you go a little early this afternoon.
01:06:36Early, but not immediately.
01:06:40And I'm quite sure you'll all be glad to hear that tomorrow
01:06:43we're going to have a quiz on the past two weeks' work.
01:06:50I must apologize for not giving you your full hour this afternoon.
01:06:53But my closest friend, Dr. Sovak, is leaving Newcastle.
01:07:03What was that?
01:07:06What is it? What's that noise?
01:07:10What is it? Why don't you answer me?
01:07:12It's a siren. Probably an ambulance or a police car.
01:07:14Come on, sweetie. We can help you. What can we do?
01:07:26Come on, sweetie. We can help you. What can we do?
01:07:28Oh!
01:07:48Here you are.
01:07:50Thank you, dear.
01:07:51Gosh, Dad, I hate to leave this place.
01:07:53Hmm.
01:07:54Seems so much like home to me.
01:07:55I know, Jane, but at least I've gone to a better position.
01:07:58Of course, then.
01:07:59I'll pack the rest of the books.
01:08:02Oh, Dad, I've packed all your instruments.
01:08:04Good girl, Jane.
01:08:13Oh, I per...
01:08:14Where is he?
01:08:16Where's the duck?
01:08:18I want my dough. Where is it?
01:08:20You know where it is. You're sneaking away with it.
01:08:22What do you mean?
01:08:23Yes, you do. Tell me where it is.
01:08:24Dad!
01:08:25Stop it.
01:08:26Red!
01:08:27Red!
01:08:28Red!
01:08:29Red!
01:08:52Ernst.
01:08:53Why?
01:08:55Why did you do it?
01:08:57Why, Ernst?
01:08:59I think you know the answer now, George.
01:09:03You know the answer now, George.
01:09:24I pronounce this man...
01:09:26dead.
01:09:28In your eyes..
01:09:36I lost teeth.
01:09:38I don't know who you need to do it in my body.
01:09:40To the record is on the entrance of the μ§v...
01:09:41no need to be sighting the way out of our'll...
01:09:42It was on the brakes.
01:09:43By itself, it was dead as a dude.
01:09:45That had made sure that you would make the Broncos...
01:09:46I could not have an ruin, yes!
01:09:47But then he was dead...
01:09:48In your eye...
01:09:49in an automobile, my turn was completely dead.
01:09:51In your sight...
01:09:52I thought there's not going well or no need to wipe...
01:09:54You have to walk your senses!
01:09:55THE END
