00:00The
00:30Young man, young man!
01:00You ever know anything about these contraptions?
01:07I'm afraid not very much.
01:09What seems to be the trouble?
01:10Well, if I knew to, it just won't go.
01:13Oh, well, I suppose it serves me right for going out without my chauffeur.
01:17Is there a garage in this neighborhood?
01:19The nearest one's about three blocks.
01:21Oh, oh!
01:23Here you are.
01:24Have to send a mechanic.
01:26Well, that's all right.
01:28I'll have them send one over.
01:30My, what a nice young man you are!
01:32And do hurry, my son will be so worried.
01:36Yes, ma'am.
01:37Okay, Charlie, hop to it.
01:43Okay, Charlie, hop to it.
01:50Let's go.
01:51Let's go.
01:52Let's go.
01:53Let's go.
01:54Let's go.
01:55Let's go.
01:56Let's go.
01:57.
02:27Jim Lacey, here's a flash.
02:40Some smart guy cuts a main burglar alarm cable in a hole at 3rd and Lester
02:42and pops off every bell in the district.
02:45Then when the cops are running around in circles,
02:46he blows the Phelps jewelry safe and grabs a famous diamond necklace
02:49called the Zyrena's Tears.
02:57We've got to recover that necklace, Ridgway.
03:05I want you to put your best men on this case.
03:07Well, it's hardly my case.
03:10Of course, if I can do anything...
03:11It's your company's case to the extent of $100,000.
03:15That's the amount you'll have to pay us if we don't recover.
03:18Mr. Phelps, you were notified a month ago
03:20that your policy would not be renewed.
03:23Why, there must be some misunderstanding.
03:25My check for this year's premium was accepted,
03:28endorsed by your firm, and paid.
03:32When was this policy renewed?
03:34I think it was about a month ago when you were in Boston.
03:37Yes, I'm sure it was. I took the liberty of...
03:39You took the liberty?
03:41Why, yes.
03:41The policy had been in force a number of years
03:43and I received a renewal check, so automatically I...
03:45That will be all, Miss Harrison?
03:49Very well, Mr. Phelps.
03:50In the event recovery of this necklace is not affected,
03:53your claims will be promptly paid.
03:55Well, of course.
04:03Mr. Ridgway, may I suggest that you leave this case
04:06entirely in the hands of the police?
04:08Well, Lieutenant Eckhart, I am glad to see
04:10that you are cooperating with us in your usual efficient manner.
04:12However, I'm reserving the right to engage my own investigator.
04:17Listen, Ridgway, you've paid Barry Drake thousands of dollars
04:21for the return of stolen property
04:22that the department could have recovered at no cost to you.
04:25Well, I admit he's been very successful.
04:27But he's just as much a crook as the crooks he does business with.
04:30And one of these days we'll prove it.
04:36Of course, I've been trying to find you all day.
04:38I wanted to tell you...
04:39I know, I know.
04:40The Tsarina's tears have been stolen.
04:42How did you know?
04:43Maybe I was around when it happened.
04:45Was it?
04:45Oh, maybe I read it in the morning paper.
04:48You know who done it?
04:50I'm not quite sure, but I have a pretty good idea.
04:53Well, you're sure tough to find.
04:55Has the girl been trying to get you on the phone all day?
04:57A girl?
04:58Yeah.
04:59A Miss, uh, Harrison.
05:01Dale Harrison.
05:02Harrison.
05:04Harrison.
05:04I don't know any Dale Harrison.
05:06Was she, uh, good-looking?
05:08Well, uh...
05:09Oh, how do I know?
05:10I only talked to her on the phone.
05:12But she had a good-looking voice.
05:13Yeah?
05:18All right.
05:19Get her on the phone for me.
05:20Boss, could you let me have another nickel?
05:48Oh, apparently I can't trust you with money, Whitehouse.
05:52I'm afraid I'll have to make that call myself.
05:55Yes, sir.
05:55I'll take it, I'll take it.
06:19Hello.
06:20Hello, Barry.
06:21Hello.
06:21I've been trying to locate you.
06:23Yes, did you read the papers about the robbery?
06:26Yeah, well, I'm in a spot.
06:29Somebody pulled a boner.
06:31Mr. Ridgway, I never talk business when I...
06:33Now, we want that necklace back and no questions asked.
06:36There's $5,000 in it for you.
06:39Did you say $10,000?
06:41What?
06:42Just a minute while I entertain your proposition.
06:44Well, $10,000 is all right, but get it back.
06:50I accept.
06:51As a matter of fact, I am already working on the case.
06:54You have nothing to worry about, Mr. Ridgway.
06:56This arena's tears will be on your hands before you know it.
07:00Okay.
07:00Are you a dreamer in love with love?
07:08Have you the idea of your dream?
07:12Hey, uh, fella, you're supposed to be looking at me, not that singer I'm here.
07:18Why don't you all be interested?
07:19Strictly professional, Dolly.
07:21Oh, she's old enough to be your mother.
07:24Let's dream together
07:29One dream for two
07:37Are you a dreamer the same as I?
07:45You excuse me for a minute.
07:47What, again?
07:48Are you a dreamer the same as I?
07:53Is there a moment for me?
07:55Hello, Charlie.
07:57Hello, Drake.
07:57How are you?
07:58You mind?
07:59No, not at all.
08:00A drink?
08:03Thanks.
08:04Hey, Gus.
08:06Are you a dreamer in love with love?
08:13Have you the idea you're dreaming of?
08:20Then there's but one thing we both should do
08:26Let's dream together
08:32One dream for two
08:39Lily, how are you?
08:49Oh, why, hello, Mr. Drake.
08:52Do you know, uh, Mr. Cooper?
08:55No, I don't believe I've had the pleasure.
08:58How do you do, Miss, uh...
08:59Uh, Lamont, Lily Lamont.
09:01Sit down, Lily, sit down.
09:02I, uh, enjoyed your number very much, Miss Lamont.
09:06Oh, that's very sweet of you.
09:08Oh, Lily's a great girl.
09:10Oh, uh, by the way,
09:12I saw you flirting with that bald-headed chap out there.
09:16Remember what you promised me last time?
09:18No more two-timing.
09:22Well, I think I'll leave you two to get acquainted.
09:26Now, remember, Lily,
09:27no more trifling.
09:29No more trifling.
09:32Hey, what is this?
09:36Why, I don't even know what he was talking about.
09:39Oh, you don't even know what he was talking about, huh?
09:41Listen, if you're running around with that Drake guy...
09:43Charlie, please.
09:45I've never been out with Drake in my life.
09:47The last time I saw him was two years ago.
09:50He was on a case I was mixed up in.
09:52Yeah?
09:52Yeah.
09:52Listen, you take care of the check and I'll see you later.
10:03Oh, you don't even know what he was talking about.
11:33Have you looked under the wallpaper yet?
11:45I was coming to that.
11:47Come on, Charlie, I give up.
11:49Where is it?
11:50You're hardly in a position to be asking questions, are you?
11:53Technically, no.
11:55But you can't use that thing.
11:57It makes too much noise.
11:59Besides, murder is a much tougher rap than safe-blowing.
12:02Safe-blowing?
12:03Come on, now.
12:04I know you've got the necklace, and you know that you can't get more than four or five grand for it.
12:07I'm getting ten for returning it.
12:09I'll split with you, no questions asked.
12:12Very interesting.
12:13But even if I knew what you were talking about, I'm not doing business with coppers.
12:17Now listen, Charlie.
12:23Keep that up, and Lily's going to collect your insurance.
12:26Come on, now.
12:27Where is it?
12:28Well, you seem to be running the show now.
12:33Supposing you tell me.
12:36Well, let's review the case.
12:39Famous necklace stolen.
12:41Chief suspects Lily Lamont and Charlie Cooper.
12:44Railroad tickets found on premises indicate plans for sudden flight.
12:48Train leaves Union Station at 10.40 p.m.
12:50Was somebody planning a little trip?
12:54Sherlock, you amaze me.
12:56The case is practically solved.
12:58Except for the recovery of the next...
13:00I wonder where it could be.
13:05Well, your sense of the artistic surprises me, Charlie.
13:23Or was that Lily's idea?
13:25Buried treasure, eh?
13:36The case is solved.
13:38Someday you're not going to be so lucky.
13:40Now, you shouldn't go around frightening people like that, Charlie.
13:43I'm afraid I'll have to put you where you can't do any harm.
13:47Will you step into my office, Mr. Cooper?
13:52Good luck.
13:53And don't miss the 10.40 train.
14:11What are you doing here?
14:13I thought I fired you.
14:14Yes, sir.
14:17I'll do.
14:17Well, Ridgeway, you won't need Drake on the folks' case.
14:24We got a lead and expect to...
14:26Make an arrest within the next 24 hours, but you're a little late.
14:29Barry Drake has recovered the necklace and is on his way here with it.
14:33No.
14:34Yes.
14:35How are you, Mr. Ridgeway?
14:37Hello, Barry.
14:38Have you got it?
14:39Did I ever let you down?
14:40Where did you find the necklace?
14:42Yes.
14:42Salvaged it.
14:43It was raised from a sunken chest.
14:45Guarded by a beautiful murky.
14:48Pretty smart, aren't you?
14:50Maybe you can tell us how you always manage to find stolen property so quickly.
14:54Sure.
14:55I just stop and figure, now, where would Lieutenant Eckert look for him?
15:00Then I look somewhere else.
15:03Okay, funny man.
15:04But one of these days, you'll forget the cover-up and we're going to hang it on you.
15:07Now, if you don't mind, I've got to catch a train.
15:10And now, may I have the necklace?
15:12May I have my feet?
15:14Oh, the feet?
15:15Oh, yes, yes, to be sure.
15:18Pretty little thing, isn't it?
15:20I'll take charge of it.
15:25That's right.
15:30And now, if you'll excuse me, I have guests waiting and all that sort of thing.
15:34You understand?
15:35Thank you, and good night.
15:38Good night.
15:40Well, that's that.
15:41Ten grand.
15:43For what?
15:43I tell you, Ridgway, someday I'm going to hang it.
15:45David, Lieutenant, if you don't mind, I've got to catch a train.
15:51What's this?
15:52It's my resignation.
15:53Resignation, indeed.
15:55Well, you know I'm leaving for New York.
15:57Who do you expect is going to look after things?
15:59You stay right here and see that nothing happens.
16:01And don't sign any more policy.
16:08I'll get that great guy if it's the last thing I do.
16:11He's an out-and-out crook.
16:12I agree with you, Lieutenant.
16:15Ten thousand dollars.
16:17Oh, Mr. Phelps.
16:19So, you recovered the necklace?
16:20Of course we recovered it.
16:24That is, it was recovered.
16:27What is this, a joke?
16:28Why, it's the Tsarina's tears, ain't it?
16:33It's a lot of paste, a rank imitation.
16:36What?
16:37Where did you get that thing?
16:39Why, Barry Drake brought it.
16:40He...
16:40Yeah, Barry Drake.
16:42I told you he'd pulled something like this.
16:44He keeps the real thing and rings in a phony.
16:48Ten thousand dollars.
16:50I've been waiting for this.
16:53Where's Ridgway?
16:54He just left for New York.
16:55He's on his way to the station.
16:56I've got to catch him.
16:57He...
16:58He's...
16:59Wait.
17:02Evening, lady.
17:03Remember me?
17:05I, uh, can't place your face.
17:07But your manner is very fomentious.
17:09Well, I'm the fellow who brought you here for a good time.
17:12And now I've got the rest of the evening to prove.
17:15Telephone call for you, Mr. Drake.
17:16Oh, uh, thank you.
17:18Just a moment.
17:20You see?
17:24I think of everything.
17:27Hello?
17:28That copper, Eckhart.
17:29He just left, boss.
17:30He's looking to pick you up.
17:32That necklace you were towing is spurious.
17:34What are you talking about?
17:36It's a phony and they think you've done it.
17:38What'll I do, boss?
17:39The heat's on.
17:40Wait a second, buddy.
17:44Meet me at the Union Station as soon as you can.
17:46Step on it.
17:47What now, little man?
17:48A sleeper jumped this time?
17:49I'll be right back.
17:51Wait for me, will you?
17:51Oh, sure.
17:52I won't budge from the spot.
17:54Except to eat and sleep.
17:55Sorry.
17:56Sorry.
17:57Pardon me.
18:08May I have a stand?
18:10Here I am, boss.
18:18Where are we lambing?
18:19We're not lambing.
18:20We're looking for someone.
18:22You love the overnight limited, madam.
18:24Air condition throughout.
18:25No dirt, no noise.
18:26It's like being wafted on a zipper.
18:28Never mind the sales talk.
18:29I don't want to buy the train.
18:32Very well.
18:32There she is.
18:35At the last window.
18:42Excuse me.
18:44But that lady who just left here, we're going to the same place.
18:47Does she know it?
18:48Not yet, but she will.
18:51Two tickets to...
18:52To Cincinnati?
18:54That's right.
18:56Upper or lower?
18:58Two lowers.
18:59My keeper can't stand the altitude.
19:05Just a minute, lady.
19:06I've got to catch the New Yorker.
19:07I'm sorry.
19:08She just left.
19:09Three minutes ago.
19:18Treat yourself to another murder.
19:20Hey, want to know who hid the body in the trunk?
19:22The phony French detective.
19:24I think you're all meany.
19:27Back forward.
19:34Oh, why don't...
19:35Oh, I beg your pardon.
19:38What do you want, lady?
19:39I've got to stop that man.
19:40What man?
19:40Barry Drake.
19:41Who's Barry Drake?
19:42He's a crook.
19:43He's wanted by the police.
19:44I don't know anything about that, lady.
19:45Oh, I've got to stop.
19:46Well, you can't go in there without a ticket.
19:54Those two men, the one with the tuxedo.
19:56I want a ticket to the same place.
19:57Where are they going?
19:58What do you think I am, a tattletale?
19:59Oh, please, please.
20:00It's very important.
20:01He, uh...
20:02He's my husband.
20:03He's running away from me.
20:04Oh, your husband?
20:05Oh, dear.
20:06Well, that's different.
20:07Oh, the brute.
20:09He's going to Cincinnati.
20:11I'll put you in the same berth.
20:13Oh, no, no.
20:14Just the same car.
20:15Oh.
20:15Get me out another suit, Whitey.
20:23Oh, another suit?
20:25I'm sorry, sir.
20:26I haven't another suit.
20:27I just packed some shirts and some ties and, uh...
20:29You're a great help.
20:33We're liable to end up in Florida or even Alaska.
20:36What color would you like, boss?
20:38Oh, a blue or a gray or...
20:40I'll put these things in your boy.
20:46One melted cheese sandwich on toast.
20:49One double old-fashioned.
20:52I think you got that right, is it?
20:53You is.
20:54And don't fall down while you're running.
20:56Yes, sir.
20:57I'm in, no ma'am.
21:04Is she alone?
21:05Yes, sir.
21:06Fine.
21:07Here's the other half of that bill I gave you.
21:09There's more where that came from.
21:10Keep me posted.
21:11Yes, sir.
21:12I'm the post man.
21:36Well?
21:37He's in the smoking room now.
21:38He's both as low as six.
21:40Thanks.
21:41I haven't any change, but wait a minute.
21:51Take this.
21:56We're all right.
22:09We're ready.
22:20Yeah, boys, pick one out.
22:33Where did you get those?
22:36I just borrowed them.
22:37The train is full of them.
22:40Put them back, White House.
22:45This is pretty, ain't it?
22:47Put them back.
22:50Let's go.
23:21Hello.
23:23What's this, a special feature of the Overnight Limited?
23:25I beg your pardon?
23:27Oh, that's quite all right. That's quite all right.
23:29Do you want me to ring for the porter?
23:30I should say not. Two's company.
23:33Will you please get out of my berth?
23:35Your berth?
23:36This is Lower Nine, isn't it?
23:39It is if you stand on your head.
23:44Oh.
23:46Well, I'm sorry.
23:47I don't know how it could have happened.
23:49I understand. It's the nesting urge.
23:52The old homesteading instinct.
23:53I come from Pioneer stock myself.
23:56But it's so stupid of me, Mr.
23:58Uh, Dalton.
24:00Mr. Dalton.
24:01I, uh, now if you'll go and I'll get myself together.
24:05Oh, no, not at all.
24:06I'll take berth number nine.
24:08After all, anything to please the lady.
24:10You are a lady.
24:11Hey, mister.
24:13Will you and your wife please pipe down?
24:15We want to go to sleep.
24:17Uh, the, uh, neighbors are complaining.
24:22Good night, Mrs. Dalton, and, uh, pleasant dreams.
24:25Good night.
24:25I, I, I'm sorry.
24:34Oh, that's perfectly all right.
24:35Don't apologize.
24:37I, I represent the Fletcher form fit hosiering corporation.
24:41Could I interest you in our latest creation?
24:43Miss America, stag proof, run proof, absolutely impervious to the dangers of modern age.
24:51No thanks, I'm knitting a pair.
24:53Ah, competition, huh?
24:55Yeah.
24:56Good night.
24:56Good night, I'll wear them myself.
24:58Oh, uh, Mrs. Dalton, may I come in?
25:15No, no, not now.
25:17I understand.
25:18Uh, here's something you, uh, overlooked.
25:21Uh, here's something you, uh.
25:48Water.
25:49That's not.
25:50Will we be here long enough for me to send a telegram?
25:52Yes, ma'am. We start here five minutes.
25:56I'm going into a compartment.
25:57You follow her and find out who she's sending that telegram to.
26:19Did you find it, boss?
26:25No. How'd you make out?
26:27Well, I didn't get what was in a telegram, but it was addressed to a Charles Cooper at the Windsor Hotel, Cincinnati.
26:33Good work, Whitey.
26:49Winter Hotel, please.
27:06I'm so glad you got here.
27:07Where are they?
27:09Here they come.
27:11But don't arrest them now. They've got to lead us to that necklace.
27:14White House, I see a friend of yours.
27:20Here?
27:22Over there.
27:24That man again.
27:41Windsor Hotel.
27:43I'll stick with them somehow and you follow.
27:45Right.
27:47Yoo-hoo, here I am.
27:48Yoo-hoo, here it is.
27:55Driver, take us to the Baltimore Hotel.
28:04I don't blame you for not waiting for me.
28:06After this, I'll stay right close to you.

36:06I've got enough on you to hang you,
36:07but I'm only interested in what directly concerns me.

48:17Barry!
48:18Bish!
48:21Now, now, men! Gentlemen!
48:24Gentlemen, I've been trying to explain that I am an officer of the law.
48:29You're traficing on private property.
48:32I know, but I was only after them city folks.
48:35You know, that man in the tuxedo.
48:37Tuxedo, you know, tuxedo.
48:40Them fellas in the circus clothes?
48:42Yeah, yeah, that's it.
48:54I don't know.
49:22Hey, you.
49:22Where's that jar of face cream, you know that the jar of the thing that.
49:29You can't have it, the lady give it to me.
49:31What may I look at that for just a minute.
49:34I'll give it right back to you.
49:46They're gone.
49:48If you're looking for them glass beads, the lady took them.
49:52You're all under arrest, and I want those jewels.
50:01So do we.
50:22Good morning, Miss Harrison.
50:33Good morning, Lieutenant.
50:34Well, I got them back, and that was a great job you did.
50:37Yes, Mr. Ridgeway is going to be very proud of you when he.
50:40I'll do the talking here.
50:41My apologies, Lieutenant.
50:43Now, if I may have the necklace, Mr.
50:44Oh, yes, yes, the necklace.
50:47That was nice work.
50:49And you thought you could get away with returning this phony.
50:53I repeat, Miss Harrison, that was nice work.
50:56Nice.
50:57And as for you, Drake, what have you to say for yourself?
51:00Nice work.
51:01He just said that.
51:03Wise guys, huh?
51:04When you're up there doing a stretch with Lily Lamont and Cooper, you'll have time to think up a lot of wisecracks.
51:10Ah, Mr. Phelps.
51:11Well, Lieutenant, I received your message.
51:12Have you got the necklace?
51:14Have I got it?
51:16Have I got it?
51:18What do you call this?
51:19I call that a beautiful collection of glass.
51:25What do you mean?
51:26But that's an imitation.
51:27Where's the genuine necklace?
51:29What do you mean an imitation?
51:30Why, why?
51:31Now, now, now, wait.
51:32Look, Eckhart.
51:33You sent for me to deliver the necklace.
51:35Now, where is it?
51:36Now, look here, Phelps.
51:39I've gone to a lot of trouble to recover this necklace.
51:41Gentlemen, gentlemen, I think you're making a great deal of fuss over nothing.
51:45That necklace is an imitation.
51:47How do you know?
51:47Because I returned the genuine necklace originally.
51:51You returned the genuine necklace.
51:55Here's what you returned.
51:57A phony.
51:59What?
52:00Why, this is it.
52:01This is the genuine necklace.
52:03What?
52:03Why, you dumb flatfoot.
52:06Who's a flatfoot?
52:07You.
52:08I take people out.
52:09Gentlemen, gentlemen, please.
52:10I work here.
52:11Oh, sir.
52:12I get these people together running all over the country.
52:14Lieutenant, place this amongst your souvenirs.
52:17Bah, bah.
52:19You're okay, sister.
52:21I'll be at the apartment, master.
52:27And now, Mr. Dalton, I have work to do.
52:31I get it.
52:33Oh, by the way, Mrs. Dalton, what time do you go to lunch?
52:37One o'clock.
52:38Then we have an appointment at the city hall at 1.15.
52:47Good morning, Miss Harrison.
52:49Good morning, Mr. Ridgeway.
52:50Anything happen while I was away?
52:53Not a thing, Mr. Ridgeway.
52:54Not a thing.
52:55It is.
52:56Good morning, Mr. Ridgeway.
53:00Not a thing.
