00:00:00The End
00:00:30The End
00:01:00The End
00:01:30You're going too fast for a load like that.
00:01:51Load?
00:01:52Where do you think we are, melons?
00:01:54I'm sorry, miss.
00:01:55What's the hurry?
00:01:56I'm Rick Daniels, press agent for Col King's Varieties.
00:02:00This Mr. Col King himself.
00:02:02We have taken the Rutherford Mansion, Sergeant.
00:02:04Could you direct us?
00:02:06There's no way to miss it.
00:02:07Look, Sarge, I'll take it easy.
00:02:09There's no need in handing us a ticket.
00:02:10These girls have worked hard on the show all winter.
00:02:12We're on our way to the beach for a month.
00:02:14If you want, I'll call your lieutenant and...
00:02:18That's enough, Daniels.
00:02:18The sergeant understands.
00:02:20You'll see the Rutherford Place down the road to your left.
00:02:22Go a little slower.
00:02:23Well, you've got a valuable load.
00:02:25Oh, Sarge.
00:02:28Well, well, I fixed that.
00:02:53You're Mrs. Weebles, the housekeeper?
00:03:19Yes.
00:03:20Well, the broker told you to expect this, of course.
00:03:22Yes.
00:03:26I'm Mrs. Thorne, wardrobe mistress of the company.
00:03:29Come in.
00:03:35Your baggage has arrived.
00:03:36It's upstairs in your rooms.
00:03:39Upstairs, girl.
00:03:39May we take a look at the rest of the house?
00:03:45Certainly.
00:03:47Ah, this would be Mrs. Pebbles, huh?
00:03:49Mrs. Weebles.
00:03:50No banter, Daniels.
00:03:52While cheer up, youth and beauty have arrived in brilliant wit.
00:03:55The old house will re-echo to music and laughter.
00:04:02Show people.
00:04:03Oh, this place needs a little air.
00:04:11Yes, and a little dusting wouldn't hurt either.
00:04:13I should say not.
00:04:16Oh, what a beautiful view.
00:04:18But the ocean always makes me sad.
00:04:21Get ghosts, sir, here.
00:04:22Ghosts of gayer days.
00:04:23I once lost a dear friend by drowning.
00:04:26Where's that caretaker?
00:04:29Yes.
00:04:30Oh, we wanted to use this for rehearsals in a general sitting room.
00:04:33Yes, ma'am, I'll get some dusters.
00:04:36Drink is the root of all evil.
00:04:40Uh-oh, one of them.
00:04:42Probably a very sincere, kind woman.
00:04:45I'll be back to help as soon as I see if the girls are all right upstairs.
00:04:49And Marsha gets a whole suite to herself.
00:04:51That's your choice by right, Winifred.
00:04:53Oh, no, Ruby.
00:04:54Marsha's our lead for the next season.
00:04:56This room's been cleaned.
00:04:57It's really nice.
00:04:59I think we should bring more beds.
00:05:01All the rest of us sleep in one room.
00:05:03It'd be safer.
00:05:04What are you feeling unsafe about now?
00:05:06In this big house, anything.
00:05:08Just anything could happen.
00:05:11Oh, Winifred, Adelaide.
00:05:13I think it would be better if you girls shared the rooms with Marsha.
00:05:16Well, this I call it grand plaisir.
00:05:18We can manage you very well, Mrs. Blum.
00:05:20Go on, you goose.
00:05:21We'll help you take over.
00:05:23This I call a swell break.
00:05:25No, girls, no horseplay.
00:05:27What's Santoy?
00:05:28Maiden-waiting to the sole great star, Marsha.
00:05:32Come on, Lois.
00:05:34And Clem.
00:05:35This we've got to see.
00:05:36Oh, I think I'll just stay here.
00:05:40Marsha isn't going to like this.
00:05:42I hope.
00:05:45Well, Marsha,
00:05:46the other room in this suite is for Winifred and Adelaide.
00:05:49I was going to put Santoy in the other room.
00:05:51I'm sorry, Marsha.
00:05:53Santoy isn't a maid.
00:05:54She'll stay with the other girls.
00:05:56Oh, clumsy, don't look at the cruel things.
00:05:58I could put that down.
00:06:00Girls, please.
00:06:02I talk with you.
00:06:03Leave me.
00:06:03I want to talk with her.
00:06:04There's no need for us to use the room.
00:06:06The arrangements have already been made.
00:06:08Come, girls.
00:06:09I'll have no quarreling.
00:06:10Sicker, Adelaide.
00:06:11Sicker.
00:06:11I knew something dreadful was going to happen when we came here.
00:06:16Oh, now, dear, come along.
00:06:17Maestro expects us all in for a suite before evening.
00:06:24Again you make trouble with your bad temper and your soul, grand manners.
00:06:27I might suggest you mind your affairs.
00:06:30In Switzerland.
00:06:31In France.
00:06:32Always the same thing.
00:06:33You flirt with rich men and poof, trouble.
00:06:35I would advise you to mind your own business.
00:06:38You make the fool of Cold King.
00:06:40Same as the others.
00:06:41You will ruin this show.
00:06:42I will own this show.
00:06:44And listen.
00:06:45You know the maestro's rules.
00:06:47What if he were to find out that Doc Brandt is your husband?
00:06:50There is other work in this country.
00:06:53Women like you.
00:06:54Someone should like that.
00:06:56Furthermore, the maestro and a lot of other people might like to know who Doc Brandt really is.
00:07:03Bad as you are.
00:07:04You would not do anything like that.
00:07:06But we're all going swimming before dark, dear.
00:07:16Peg, I could kill her.
00:07:31Well, where have you been?
00:07:34Pick those things up.
00:07:36No, wait a minute.
00:07:38We're going swimming, but I'll get you excused.
00:07:41I want you to go to Adelaide's trunk for me.
00:07:44Oh, please.
00:07:45Don't make me steal.
00:07:46Steal?
00:07:47Who do you think I am?
00:07:48Fagan?
00:07:48Look, in Adelaide's trunk, there's a small metal box.
00:07:53There are some letters in it.
00:07:54No, Marsha.
00:07:56Please, I can't.
00:07:58Do you want the maestro to know that you're under 18?
00:08:00Oh, I can't lose this job, Marsha.
00:08:02I can't.
00:08:03It's my chance, and, well, I need the money.
00:08:07Exactly.
00:08:08Bring me three or four letters.
00:08:11Three or four will do.
00:08:12All right, let's go over there.
00:08:19Oh, my goodness.
00:08:21All right, Matt.
00:08:25Mr. King will be down soon, girls.
00:08:27Then we can swim.
00:08:28Oh, maestro making an entrance, eh?
00:08:31I just wish her not to win.
00:08:32Well, of course you'll swim, dear.
00:08:34Sun, sea, air, exercise.
00:08:36That's the tonic.
00:08:37Where's Lois?
00:08:37She has a headache.
00:08:39I don't think I'll go and eat in the store.
00:08:41Well, that'll be all right then, though.
00:08:43Come on, girls.
00:08:47Perfect.
00:08:48Perfect, Daniels.
00:08:49We should have pictures.
00:08:50We're posing a set for the magazines tomorrow.
00:08:53Good.
00:08:53Then today, we swim.
00:08:57Come on, sweetheart.
00:09:01Come on.
00:09:03Come on, sweetheart.
00:09:07Come on.
00:09:08Wait a minute.
00:09:09Wait a minute.
00:09:09Wait a minute.
00:09:10Wait a minute.
00:09:37Where's Marcia?
00:09:40Her robe was gone when I came out.
00:09:43Maybe she's ill or something.
00:09:45I hope it's serious.
00:09:46This woman, she's sick all the time.
00:09:48Inside.
00:09:50Shh.
00:09:50Has anyone seen Marcia?
00:09:53I think she went up to the house, maestro.
00:09:59Wonder if Marcia and maestro quarreled.
00:10:02You can't quarrel with a lap dog.
00:10:07She's sick all the time.
00:10:31¶¶
00:11:00The Root of Evil.
00:11:17You said it.
00:11:18Lots of evil has come out of the sea.
00:11:20The world, for instance.
00:11:21Liquor is the root.
00:11:23Crime, the stem and branches.
00:11:25And what's the fruit?
00:11:30Let's go.
00:12:00It's in the ghost.
00:12:02It's kind of chilly.
00:12:06Did you see some toy or Lois?
00:12:08No, I was just in the cabana.
00:12:19Lois, you in there?
00:12:30What's going on?
00:12:37What have I done?
00:12:38What's going on?
00:12:40What's going on?
00:12:40What's going on?
00:12:41What's going on?
00:12:42What's going on?
00:12:43Lois!
00:12:44What's going on with her?
00:12:45What happened?
00:12:46She's dead.
00:12:47Quiet, girl.
00:12:48Please.
00:12:49I think you better be in the room.
00:12:50Look, maestro.
00:12:51For the good of the show, Lois is dead.
00:12:52She'll not mind if it looks like an accident.
00:12:53You couldn't move the body.
00:12:54Why, sure, to the beach.
00:12:55It'll look like a drowning.
00:12:56We'll work it out when the fuss dies down.
00:12:57It'll be easier on Lois' mother, too.
00:12:58You press agents are all calloused.
00:12:59I forbid it.
00:13:00Take the edge off the fresh news breaks, and we can handle it quietly, I tell you.
00:13:01I forbid it.
00:13:02She was guaranteed a cord around her neck.
00:13:03What kind of a cord is that?
00:13:04A silk cord.
00:13:05A silk, huh?
00:13:06That's an old Chinese custom.
00:13:07Chinese?
00:13:08Now, Clem, this is no time for hysterics.
00:13:09Come on.
00:13:10Come on.
00:13:11We'd better leave.
00:13:12Come on.
00:13:13Come on.
00:13:14Come on.
00:13:15Come on.
00:13:16Come on.
00:13:17Come on.
00:13:18Come on.
00:13:19Come on.
00:13:20Come on.
00:13:21Come on.
00:13:22Come on.
00:13:23Come on.
00:13:24Come on.
00:13:25Come on.
00:13:26Come on.
00:13:27Come on.
00:13:28Come on.
00:13:29Come on.
00:13:30Come on.
00:13:31Come on.
00:13:32Come on.
00:13:33Come on.
00:13:34Come on.
00:13:35Come on.
00:13:36Come on.
00:13:37Come on.
00:13:38Come on.
00:13:39Come on.
00:13:40Oh, for heaven's sake, Clem.
00:13:41Let up.
00:13:42Don't let her come to me.
00:13:44Clementine, control yourself.
00:13:45It's a Chinese drink of silk and cord.
00:13:48She was in the house with poor Lois' all the time.
00:13:51Oh, I wish Doc were here.
00:13:52What she needs is a pill.
00:13:54You'll have to humor him.
00:13:55Oh, sure, Clem.
00:13:56The Chinese garot people all the time.
00:13:58You're accusing me?
00:14:00Jacqueuse.
00:14:01Jacqueuse.
00:14:02This is very bad.
00:14:03The garot is an old French apache costume, too.
00:14:05That's right.
00:14:06And if it was Marcia up there, you'd have some tall explaining to do.
00:14:09I'm going to see if the men have found any trace of Marcia.
00:14:11No, Winifred.
00:14:12They asked us to stay here until the police come.
00:14:15Girls, please try to be calm.
00:14:17Yes, until Marcia's found.
00:14:18We won't know anything.
00:14:19All Marcia's clones are still obscured.
00:14:22Don't stare at me like that.
00:14:24Santoy, dear.
00:14:25No one accuses you.
00:14:26It was a silk gourd.
00:14:28I've read about the Chinese.
00:14:30I'll put an end to this.
00:14:32I met a detective, the world's greatest detective.
00:14:35His name is Jimmy Chan, great Chinese detective.
00:14:38He'll protect his country woman.
00:14:40Santoy, where are you going?
00:14:42Where are you going?
00:14:44. . . .
00:14:53. . .
00:14:55. . .
00:14:56. . .
00:14:57. . .
00:15:01. . .
00:15:05Mr. Chan! Jimmy! Jimmy! Murder! It's murder!
00:15:16Hello. This is Mr. Chan's resident.
00:15:20Mr. Chan! Jimmy! Jimmy! Murder! It's murder!
00:15:24That gets those detectives. It's all they understand.
00:15:26Don't let them tell them oh, she's burning something. We'll all be murderers.
00:15:29Mr. Chan! Jimmy! This is Santorum at the beach.
00:15:33Tell them it's murder.
00:15:35No! Jimmy! No! Jimmy! Jimmy!
00:15:40Yes! Murder! Murder!
00:15:42Jimmy! Jimmy! He's murdered! Hold on now. Be calm. Don't get excited.
00:15:46Be calm, everybody. Now, I'm with you. Wait a minute. Be calm.
00:15:48Now, wait a minute. Now, wait. Wait a minute. Say that. Good gracious to me.
00:15:52Who? Who? Where? Wait a minute. Where's the pad?
00:15:56What's your number? You said it was 26 Malibu Drive? Malibu Drive?
00:15:59Oh, good gracious. That's all right. Hold it now. Hold it. Don't get excited.
00:16:03Now, what? Who? Mr. Chan! Good gracious to me. Mr. Chan!
00:16:08Wait a minute. Mr. Chan! Mr. Chan! Mr. Chan! Mr. Chan!
00:16:13Mr. Chan! Good evening.
00:16:15Oh, good gracious, Mr. Chan. Jimmy's just gotten murdered. I just got it over the telephone.
00:16:19What? Where? Where did Carl come from?
00:16:21Well, uh, 26 Malibu Drive. There's a whole lot of girls there, and they said he just got murdered.
00:16:26Malibu Beach? How long since you've seen Jimmy?
00:16:28Oh, this afternoon, he must have had a date. But them girls said he just got murdered.
00:16:33I can understand the girl part of it. The rest of it, no. We go.
00:16:37Uh, I'll get the car. You'll get your clothes on.
00:16:39Yes, sir.
00:16:39Oh, good gracious to me. Ain't this something?
00:16:41You are sure you have correct address?
00:16:49Yes, sir, Mr. Chan. I heard it plain. A whole lot of girls screaming in Holland about Jimmy.
00:16:55Uh-oh.
00:16:56Please, you will drive carefully in the city. We make up time on Coast Highway.
00:17:01Yes, sir.
00:17:04Birmingham.
00:17:04Birmingham.
00:17:1126 Malibu Drive.
00:17:35Sam, I found her!
00:17:36You must find Marsha Sergeant.
00:17:37Now let the Sergeant talk.
00:17:39What's he know about it?
00:17:40I'll have to take your statements separately.
00:17:42Have they moved?
00:17:44Yes, the coroner took over.
00:17:46Now, who is Marsha?
00:17:48The murderess.
00:17:49Oh, now, Madge, we don't know.
00:17:51There's very little the girls can tell you, Sergeant.
00:17:53If you'll wait until the men come back, they may have news of Marsha.
00:17:56And where are the men?
00:17:58They're out looking for her.
00:17:59Someone sent for a detective.
00:18:01Oh, thank heaven.
00:18:06I'm here looking for number two son, Jimmy.
00:18:08But he's not here, Mr. Chan.
00:18:11Understood, Jimmy.
00:18:12What's here?
00:18:12I'm in trouble.
00:18:13Oh, but that must be a mistake, sir.
00:18:15Oh, mistakes sometimes bring most fortunate relief.
00:18:19I see all other troubles are in most capable hands.
00:18:23Good evening, Sergeant.
00:18:25Could it lie no more?
00:18:26I don't need to...
00:18:26A very serious thing has happened, Mr. Chan.
00:18:28This is the Sergeant's big break.
00:18:30Give him a chance.
00:18:31I'm Reynolds of the State Police, Mr. Chan.
00:18:33This is out of city jurisdiction.
00:18:34But now that you're here, I'd be glad if you kind of look things over.
00:18:38Little Chinese girl tells me many persons are wrongfully accused.
00:18:43Was a dead girl so very badly hated?
00:18:46Oh, no, Mr. Chan.
00:18:47Lois was a sweet, harmless child.
00:18:49The murder of Lois, that is a mystery.
00:18:51But the missing one, Marsha, we all hate her.
00:18:54I kid her myself.
00:18:55Poof!
00:18:56Correct.
00:18:56Lois was strangled.
00:18:58Adelaide's right.
00:18:59We all hated Marsha.
00:19:01Not hate, Mads.
00:19:02That's a bitter word.
00:19:03Marsha, bah.
00:19:04She will not be found.
00:19:05I hope not.
00:19:06Bah.
00:19:07Quiddinkang namlo.
00:19:08Question me, men.
00:19:09Ask them.
00:19:10Girls, please.
00:19:12Mr. Chan, would you care to talk to us separately?
00:19:14Would like a few moments along with Sergeant, if you please.
00:19:18Come, girls.
00:19:18Upstairs.
00:19:20No, no, not up there.
00:19:22No need to go to that room.
00:19:23We can make a general dormitory where you can all be together.
00:19:26Come on.
00:19:26Don't worry.
00:19:30Mr. Chan will clear things up.
00:19:32The Sergeant looked capable to me.
00:19:34Oui, but the detective.
00:19:41Well, that looks like an ordinary bathrobe cord to me, sir.
00:19:45I was more concerned about the presence of my number two son, Jimmy, in this house.
00:19:50Well, I haven't seen him, sir, but I'd appreciate any time you can give the case, sir.
00:19:54Oh, Mr. Chan.
00:19:57I met you when you were on the March case.
00:19:59I was handling publicity for the March flower mills.
00:20:02My name is Rick Daniels.
00:20:03I'm delighted.
00:20:04Being press agent, you will have facts alive for details.
00:20:09Mr. Chan, am I glad to see you.
00:20:12Mr. Cole King, I believe?
00:20:13Yes, sir.
00:20:14Your presence here is a great relief to us.
00:20:16One moment.
00:20:20What is your position on Mr. King's show?
00:20:24Physiotherapist in charge of diet.
00:20:25General physical culture.
00:20:27George Brandt, Mr. Chan.
00:20:29An honor, sir.
00:20:30Any sign of the missing girl?
00:20:31No, we searched every room and every cabana.
00:20:33We can't find her anywhere.
00:20:35Now, gentlemen, I will ask you for careful statements and details, please.
00:20:39I'll be in Maccabana, girls.
00:20:43Madge will take care of you.
00:20:45Good night.
00:20:45Good night.
00:20:46Good night.
00:20:48Clam, hold it.
00:20:50I'm off again.
00:20:52I saw it, too.
00:20:53Somebody out on the porch.
00:20:54A man.
00:20:55He went into the next room, through the window.
00:21:00Clam, ma'am.
00:21:00Guard entrance.
00:21:01Yes, sir.
00:21:05Come on, Clam.
00:21:06Oh, no one's going to get killed.
00:21:08What is trouble, please?
00:21:11Someone run in here from the porch.
00:21:13A man.
00:21:13I saw him jump through the window.
00:21:34So, you will explain your behavior
00:21:37with speed.
00:21:39Well, Pop, you'll see it was this way.
00:21:40Also, intelligence.
00:21:43Well, I found the address on the telephone pad.
00:21:45I figured you were on the case
00:21:46and that you might need some help.
00:21:47And when I saw the state cops up on the highway,
00:21:49I knew that they had just stopped.
00:21:50So, I just climbed up.
00:21:53Hello, Jimmy.
00:21:54Unorthodox, though, not unusual.
00:22:01One moment, please.
00:22:03You and Birmingham will take up positions in rear.
00:22:06No one is to leave premises.
00:22:08Okay, Pop.
00:22:08Our quarters are in the cabana, Mr. Tan.
00:22:10Kindly remain in the house.
00:22:12Ladies, return to your rooms.
00:22:14Sounds official.
00:22:15I still think the sergeant could handle it.
00:22:26Position up, buddy.
00:22:27Yes, sir.
00:22:28Trunk.
00:22:29All right, sir.
00:22:29Jimmy?
00:22:42Ain't nobody gonna try to leave the house tonight.
00:22:44Come on, let's find a place to stretch out.
00:22:46Pipe down.
00:22:46I'm already in touch with Pop.
00:22:48Yeah, but I'm plum exhausted.
00:22:49I want to go to sleep.
00:22:50Sleep?
00:22:51Why don't you try sleeping on your feet for a change?
00:22:53Hmm, that ain't a bad idea.
00:22:58Hey, Doc.
00:22:59There's somebody now.
00:23:10He went into the cellar.
00:23:12What are you worrying about?
00:23:13He ain't leaving the house.
00:23:18He's always looking for trouble.
00:23:23Now, now, now, wait a minute.
00:23:24Now, where are you going?
00:23:25Come on, this will square us with Pop.
00:23:26I'm already square with your Pop.
00:23:28Well, you stay here.
00:23:29I'm going in.
00:23:29That's just what I'm...
00:23:30Whoa, gangway.
00:23:31I changed my mind.
00:23:32I'm getting here.
00:23:53Jimmy!
00:23:54Jimmy!
00:23:55Whoa, Jimmy!
00:23:57I wonder where did that boy go?
00:23:59Aum, aum, aum, aum, aum, aum, aum!
00:24:59That's me.
00:25:29Mr. Chan, come out somebody.
00:25:55Come on, all of you.
00:26:02You got me surrounded.
00:26:03I got you.
00:26:04Come on.
00:26:05Good, Mr. Chan.
00:26:06Come here.
00:26:07Jimmy.
00:26:08Good, Mr. Chan.
00:26:09Come here.
00:26:10Jimmy.
00:26:11Good, Mr. Chan.
00:26:12Come here.
00:26:13Jimmy.
00:26:14They tried to kill me.
00:26:15Everybody tried to kill me.
00:26:16They hit me across my head.
00:26:17They caught me looking at everything falling on me.
00:26:18Look at everything falling on me.
00:26:19I saw him run.
00:26:20He had a bundle in his hands.
00:26:21Yeah, he might have had a bundle in one hand, but he sure had a club in the other one.
00:26:25Where's my hat?
00:26:26Jimmy.
00:26:27Let's get out of here.
00:26:28Can you get this thing off of you?
00:26:29Come on.
00:26:30Don't stop.
00:26:31Here.
00:26:32Take this, would you?
00:26:33Oh, gee, Pop.
00:26:34You scared me.
00:26:35You observed something in cellar?
00:26:38Yeah, somebody went down there and tried to stuff a bundle in the furnace.
00:26:41Person make exit.
00:26:42A carrying bundle away in hands?
00:26:44Only in one hand, Mr. Chan.
00:26:45Yeah, he clipped Birmingham.
00:26:47Resume vigilance.
00:26:48Person with bundle.
00:26:49Most important.
00:26:50Now, the way I figured that thing, Jim.
00:26:52Clip!
00:27:05Oh my god, oh my god.
00:27:12Oh my god.
00:27:15Oh my god.
00:27:16Oh my god.
00:27:17Oh my god.
00:27:18Oh my god.
00:27:19Oh my god.
00:27:20Oh my god.
00:27:21Oh my god.
00:27:22Hi girls.
00:27:23It's Santoi.
00:27:24Jimmy.
00:27:25Oh.
00:27:26I am so glad to learn you are not cause of this latest disturbance.
00:27:32Remain where you are, please.
00:27:34I think she's hurt.
00:27:37Drink.
00:27:37Did you mention the root of evil?
00:27:39Centauri, what happened?
00:27:41What's the matter?
00:27:41What happened?
00:27:42What's the matter?
00:27:43Tell us.
00:27:44Upstairs.
00:27:45Someone threw something over my head.
00:27:47I smell a chloroform.
00:27:50I can smell it here, too.
00:27:51Ruby, don't go up there.
00:27:52Don't.
00:27:52I can smell it downhill.
00:27:53No.
00:27:54It's ether.
00:27:55Yeah, we're possible.
00:27:56There's a plot against all of us.
00:27:58Oh, don't cry.
00:27:58Quiet.
00:27:59Quiet.
00:27:59Quiet.
00:27:59Quiet.
00:28:00Quiet.
00:28:00Quiet.
00:28:01Quiet.
00:28:01Quiet.
00:28:01I'm telling you that you're here.
00:28:02It's like jing-single.
00:28:03Mucho, mucho.
00:28:06Do I smell ether, Doctor?
00:28:08Yes, sir.
00:28:08A cloth must have been saturated with it, Mr. Ferranda.
00:28:10It's fantastic.
00:28:11It's madness.
00:28:12This house is hot.
00:28:13They're all clam-dried out.
00:28:14Please, please, young ladies.
00:28:15I would suggest you all go quietly to your rooms.
00:28:18The little Chinese girl is evidently the center of general mystery here.
00:28:22Well, why don't you search the place?
00:28:25By now, attackers have ample opportunity to escape.
00:28:30Or to join us here.
00:28:33What a horrible night.
00:28:45I didn't sleep a wink.
00:28:46You're snoring.
00:28:47It was asthma, no?
00:28:49Poor clam.
00:28:50She was nervous before we ever came here.
00:28:53Feel better this morning, dear?
00:28:54I slept a little.
00:28:56I massage the poor kid until she arrives.
00:28:58It's so funny.
00:28:59Look, hi.
00:29:00He's all song.
00:29:01Just carrying around my own protection.
00:29:03What is the great Mr. Chan doing?
00:29:04He has the situation well in hand.
00:29:06Oh, Mr. Chan is working it out.
00:29:08You've got to admire him.
00:29:10He's quiet, intelligent, and persistent.
00:29:12Persistent.
00:29:13An admirable quality.
00:29:14Good gracious of life, Mr. Chan.
00:29:26I know it was going to happen sometime.
00:29:28No, no, no, Jimmy.
00:29:29Get up.
00:29:30Could not possibly happen that way.
00:29:32Come in, Birmingham.
00:29:33Could not possibly...
00:29:34Birmingham, come here.
00:29:35Yes, sir.
00:29:35I want you to stand right there.
00:29:40Bend over and simulate filpering of trunk.
00:29:43Oh, yes, sir.
00:29:43Hmm?
00:29:44Imagine you are stealing something from the trunk.
00:29:47Bend over.
00:29:48Now, you are familiar with technique of the garotte?
00:29:52They didn't teach that in my school, Pop.
00:29:55Observe.
00:29:57When held in this manner,
00:29:59garotte cannot possibly be caught
00:30:02if victims should suddenly grasp the cord.
00:30:05Gee, Pop, where'd you learn that?
00:30:06In the school of hard experience.
00:30:09Uh, simulate, uh, filpering.
00:30:13Now, I am garotte.
00:30:16I enter from this door.
00:30:19I approach the victim stealthily.
00:30:24Not now, Mr. Chan, not now.
00:30:26You see, Jimmy, that is what I mean.
00:30:28It was utterly impossible for garotte
00:30:31to approach victim from behind
00:30:33while victim is kneeling in that position at the trunk.
00:30:37I get it, Pop.
00:30:37That Lois girl wasn't at the trunk.
00:30:39Uh-huh.
00:30:40Well, deduce further.
00:30:41Remember?
00:30:42The body was lying here
00:30:43where these marks are placed upon the floor.
00:30:46She whirled away from the trunk
00:30:47and saw the killer.
00:30:48Uh-huh.
00:30:49Deduce further.
00:30:49You're reaching the point.
00:30:51She recognized the killer.
00:30:53She couldn't believe what she saw with her eyes
00:30:54or she would have gotten further away.
00:30:57Maybe clean away.
00:30:58Uh, indicating what?
00:30:59That the killer was a friend.
00:31:00Exactly what I am trying to demonstrate.
00:31:03The killer, Jimmy, was a friend.
00:31:06Oh, Mr. Chan,
00:31:07maybe that girl didn't see the kill at all.
00:31:08Maybe the killer was transparent.
00:31:10Oh.
00:31:11No further deductions.
00:31:22If only we could go swimming.
00:31:25A good idea, but...
00:31:26Forbidden.
00:31:26Sergeant's orders.
00:31:27Stay here or in the house.
00:31:28Get out the orders from Mr. Chan.
00:31:31Detractor.
00:31:31The sergeant's a great criminologist.
00:31:33He told me so himself.
00:31:34Crimes and criminals.
00:31:36It all seems like a nightmare.
00:31:37Oh, Mr. Chan,
00:31:40is it how you say
00:31:41permissible to go swimming?
00:31:43I think nice swim
00:31:45would be very refreshing
00:31:47for everyone.
00:31:49Sure.
00:31:50Come on.
00:32:07He's holding your own laundry, Rick.
00:32:10I'd be glad to do any washing, sir.
00:32:12Uh, no, thank you.
00:32:13It was just something
00:32:14I had for the maestro.
00:32:22Jimmy.
00:32:24Jimmy.
00:32:28Brian Birmingham,
00:32:30you will both follow movements
00:32:31of Mr. Daniels very closely.
00:32:34Oh, but Pop,
00:32:35Santoy and I
00:32:35were going to go for a swim.
00:32:38Swim later.
00:32:48Oh, Clementine,
00:32:49look what I found.
00:32:51It moved.
00:32:52Don't touch it, Ruby, don't.
00:32:54Afraid of a crab.
00:32:55Oh, bye.
00:32:58Clementine,
00:32:59get it before it goes in the water.
00:33:03Where are you going?
00:33:07Come on.
00:33:10Marshal.
00:33:15It's Marshal.
00:33:16Marshal.
00:33:18Marshal.
00:33:27The tide was to Ruppert.
00:33:31Rimmel, cord.
00:33:32You will also examine
00:33:34not very closely.
00:33:37Shout it.
00:33:38Another one.
00:33:39Strangle.
00:33:40Good gosh.
00:33:42Another cord.
00:33:44Everyone will please
00:33:45return to the house.
00:33:47Except the sergeant.
00:33:48You remain here
00:33:49and instruct the coroner.
00:33:50It's obviously a suicide,
00:34:03Mr. Chan.
00:34:04She killed Louise
00:34:05and then go out
00:34:06and drown herself,
00:34:07n'est-ce pas?
00:34:09You observe not?
00:34:11It was a granny not, sir.
00:34:13You also possibly
00:34:14examine victim's throat?
00:34:16Yes, the trachea
00:34:17was flattened.
00:34:19What would you say
00:34:19regarding possible
00:34:20period of immersion?
00:34:23Ten or twelve hours.
00:34:24He is only guessing,
00:34:25Mr. Chan.
00:34:26Well, I have only
00:34:27a superficial knowledge
00:34:28of such things,
00:34:29Mr. Chan.
00:34:29I am certain
00:34:30coroner will agree
00:34:31with your every statement.
00:34:33Excellent.
00:34:35Doctor.
00:34:37It can't be a suicide,
00:34:39Mr. Chan.
00:34:40She was a good swimmer.
00:34:41She'd have to tie
00:34:41the cord on herself.
00:34:42Not to the kind
00:34:43women tie.
00:34:44Also many men.
00:34:46Pac!
00:34:46Hey, Pac!
00:34:47Yes?
00:34:48He's going off the beach
00:34:49with that package.
00:34:50Birmingham's watching him.
00:34:51I will take care of it.
00:34:52I must ask you all
00:34:53not to leave this room.
00:34:55I have much to discuss
00:34:57with you later.
00:35:14you will open it, please.
00:35:39I can explain, Mr. Chan.
00:35:44I will listen
00:35:45to your explanation
00:35:46at the house
00:35:47in the presence
00:35:49of your friends.
00:35:54Yeah.
00:35:56Yeah.
00:35:57Right.
00:36:01Well, the coroner says
00:36:02she couldn't have died
00:36:03by drowning.
00:36:04I thought not.
00:36:05She wasn't the kind.
00:36:06Better we leave this place
00:36:10while the excitement
00:36:10is still on.
00:36:11You don't know America, honey.
00:36:13They'd hound us
00:36:14and never let up.
00:36:14Oh, I'll live with you
00:36:15in caves,
00:36:16even in tree trunks,
00:36:18only to run away
00:36:18from this.
00:36:19I've been running away
00:36:20for years.
00:36:21Time has come now
00:36:22to face it.
00:36:23That detective,
00:36:24he knows everything.
00:36:26Already he called you
00:36:27doctor.
00:36:27Yes, I caught that.
00:36:29Look,
00:36:33before we go in,
00:36:34I was trying to keep
00:36:35somebody from being framed.
00:36:37This robe was planted
00:36:38on him.
00:36:38The maestro?
00:36:39That's right,
00:36:40and you can check on that.
00:36:41He found it
00:36:42in his clothes closet.
00:36:43I prefer to listen
00:36:44to your explanation
00:36:45in presence
00:36:46of the other suspects.
00:36:48Listen, Mr. Chan,
00:36:49I know crime.
00:36:50There isn't anybody
00:36:51in this house
00:36:51that could have killed Lois
00:36:52except Marsha herself.
00:36:54Then Marsha
00:36:55took the water route.
00:36:56Suicides do not
00:36:57garot themselves
00:36:58by tying granny knot
00:37:00at back of neck.
00:37:02I've seen a lot of crime.
00:37:03Repetition of your merit
00:37:05only go to prove
00:37:06your fear of fault,
00:37:09Mr. Press Agent.
00:37:10Continue inside, please.
00:37:21It's Marsha's robe!
00:37:23Where was it, Rick?
00:37:24I had it.
00:37:25It's Rick!
00:37:26Rick, you!
00:37:27Please, please.
00:37:30For the benefit of everyone,
00:37:32I wish to inform you
00:37:33it's my opinion.
00:37:35Marsha did not kill
00:37:36Miss Lois.
00:37:38Mr. Chan,
00:37:38several of us saw Marsha
00:37:39going into the house
00:37:40while we were swimming.
00:37:41The sergeant has a theory
00:37:42on that.
00:37:43He thinks somebody
00:37:44wore the robe
00:37:45and then went into the house.
00:37:46Excellent deduction,
00:37:47but lacks point of fact.
00:37:48And Santoy
00:37:50had every opportunity.
00:37:52Que lai moore!
00:37:53Que chane soile!
00:37:54Santoy is a petite doll,
00:37:56and she herself
00:37:57was attacked, no?
00:37:58New sound repressed.
00:38:00And that ether business
00:38:01could have been phony.
00:38:02If anyone wanted
00:38:03to cover up.
00:38:04Ruby, please.
00:38:05Mr. Chan,
00:38:06it's plain you suspect
00:38:07all of us
00:38:07of the actual,
00:38:08well, the actual murderer
00:38:09of trying to shield someone.
00:38:12Daniels,
00:38:12don't stare that way.
00:38:15You look like a vulture.
00:38:16Mr. King,
00:38:22you are familiar
00:38:23with these cords?
00:38:25This one possibly
00:38:26from Black Gown?
00:38:27Uh, there is no Black Gown
00:38:29in the wardrobe,
00:38:30Mr. Chan.
00:38:30Mr. Chan,
00:38:31excuse please,
00:38:35Chinese girl
00:38:36who is familiar
00:38:36with wardrobe,
00:38:38tell a different story.
00:38:40This cord
00:38:40which killed
00:38:41Miss Loyce
00:38:42is from
00:38:43your Black Beach robe.
00:38:44And this one
00:38:45with silver thread
00:38:46is from
00:38:47Marcia's gown.
00:38:49All right.
00:38:50So that is correct.
00:38:51How do you expect
00:38:52to get cooperation
00:38:53from one you so
00:38:54obviously
00:38:54and wrongly accused?
00:38:56Spillage are dope.
00:38:56You're the guilty one.
00:38:57Let's get him out of here
00:38:58where we can give him
00:38:59a third degree.
00:39:00Wait a minute, Daniels.
00:39:01Don't you see?
00:39:01This is a trick of chance.
00:39:03It's an old
00:39:03Oriental custom
00:39:04trying to get us
00:39:05to accuse each other.
00:39:06You're gonna talk.
00:39:07Don't ever lay a hand
00:39:08on me again.
00:39:09You killed them both,
00:39:10why don't you spill it?
00:39:11Daniels,
00:39:12this police court stuff.
00:39:13I'll have you arrested.
00:39:15Rick, stop it.
00:39:16Look,
00:39:17I was loyal to you
00:39:18and your show,
00:39:19but enough's plenty.
00:39:20I took that robe out
00:39:21and tried to bury it
00:39:22because I thought
00:39:22somebody was trying
00:39:23to frame you.
00:39:24Then Chan caught me
00:39:25and the finger's on me.
00:39:26Daniels,
00:39:27you took that robe
00:39:28to Chan.
00:39:29Oh, skip that.
00:39:30But Doc here's got
00:39:31something in his past
00:39:32that stinks.
00:39:32And the finger's
00:39:33on him too.
00:39:34The girls are
00:39:34accusing each other.
00:39:36You're ruining lives,
00:39:37Cold King.
00:39:37When you're the guilty one,
00:39:39why don't you spill it?
00:39:40Stop it, Rick.
00:39:40Get yourself more evidence.
00:39:42I got evidence enough.
00:39:44He let this dame
00:39:44Marcia make a fool
00:39:45out of him.
00:39:46Then he got tired
00:39:47of her.
00:39:47And he guided her
00:39:48with a cord
00:39:48from his own bathrobe.
00:39:50Stop him,
00:39:51Mr. Chan.
00:39:51No, no.
00:39:52Please continue.
00:39:53This kid,
00:39:54Lois,
00:39:54was a chiseler.
00:39:55She shook Adelaide's
00:39:56trunk for the tin box
00:39:57to put the bee
00:39:57on you, Doc.
00:39:59Blackmail.
00:39:59And that's where
00:40:00you came in.
00:40:01She was swiping the box
00:40:02when she saw
00:40:03you fix Marcia.
00:40:04You had her kill,
00:40:04Lois,
00:40:05with a cord
00:40:06from Marcia's gown.
00:40:07I don't know
00:40:08anything about it.
00:40:08You're crazy.
00:40:11Oh.
00:40:12Now I see it,
00:40:13Daniels.
00:40:14You're the murderer.
00:40:15You killed Marcia.
00:40:18Marcia took
00:40:18Winifred's job
00:40:19in the show.
00:40:20And ever since then
00:40:21you've been moody
00:40:21and ugly.
00:40:22You killed Marcia
00:40:23and then later
00:40:24took her body
00:40:24out to sea.
00:40:26Oh,
00:40:26that won't get you
00:40:26anywhere.
00:40:27Hey,
00:40:27wait a minute.
00:40:28You killed Marcia.
00:40:30Daniels,
00:40:31you're calloused.
00:40:32You tried to make
00:40:33Lois' death
00:40:34look like suicide.
00:40:35Obstructing justice
00:40:36is very serious
00:40:37crime,
00:40:38Mr. Daniels.
00:40:39Sergeant,
00:40:40you will make
00:40:40investigations
00:40:41and bring
00:40:42proper charges.
00:40:43Shall I handcuff him,
00:40:44sir?
00:40:44Oh,
00:40:44not necessary,
00:40:45no.
00:40:47Listen,
00:40:47all of you,
00:40:48when I shall have
00:40:49dismissed you,
00:40:51the men will all
00:40:51go to their
00:40:52cabanors.
00:40:54The ladies
00:40:54will remain here
00:40:55in this house.
00:40:56Oh,
00:40:56Mr. Chan,
00:40:57you won't make us
00:40:58put in another night
00:40:59in this house.
00:41:00Impossible to speed up
00:41:01investigation now.
00:41:03You two,
00:41:04in a few moments,
00:41:05will meet me
00:41:05in my headquarters,
00:41:06first room on the right,
00:41:07the top of the stairs.
00:41:08Talking Adelaide?
00:41:09Why,
00:41:10they're no more
00:41:10guilty than I am.
00:41:11That is very
00:41:12interesting comment,
00:41:13young lady.
00:41:14Perhaps I will be able
00:41:15to question you
00:41:17later on.
00:41:18He won't question,
00:41:19Sergeant.
00:41:20Oh,
00:41:20no,
00:41:20ma'am.
00:41:21Sergeant,
00:41:22you will please
00:41:22join my two assistants.
00:41:23Right,
00:41:24sir.
00:41:24No one is to leave
00:41:25house or cabanors.
00:41:26The beach party
00:41:26okay,
00:41:27sir?
00:41:27If carefully guarded,
00:41:29this is routine
00:41:29precaution.
00:41:31I am convinced
00:41:32the murderer
00:41:33is in this room.
00:42:01It's a dame,
00:42:02Sergeant.
00:42:03I'll get her.
00:42:04You stay here,
00:42:04see that none of
00:42:05the others try it.
00:42:05Oh,
00:42:21so it's you.
00:42:33Where were you
00:42:34going?
00:42:35To mail a letter.
00:42:37Wisecracks won't help,
00:42:38honey.
00:42:38You sure fooled me.
00:42:39Move over.
00:42:40I'll drive back
00:42:41like a good girl,
00:42:42Sergeant.
00:42:43Oh,
00:42:43no,
00:42:43you don't.
00:42:43I'll send for the
00:42:44bike later.
00:42:44Move over.
00:42:55State Board of Medical
00:42:56Examiners.
00:42:57What's this?
00:42:58I'm not talking.
00:42:59I'm not talking.
00:43:20You wish I should open
00:43:21this letter,
00:43:22Doctor?
00:43:22Of course,
00:43:23it's my application
00:43:23for the State Board.
00:43:24I'll give it to Ruby
00:43:25to post because
00:43:26she had a better
00:43:27opportunity to escape.
00:43:28Tomorrow's the last
00:43:29day for filing.
00:43:30I'd decided to drop it.
00:43:32Best laid plans
00:43:33of mice and men
00:43:34sometimes go a little
00:43:35bit haywire, huh?
00:43:37Very well,
00:43:38I accept explanation.
00:43:40I think perhaps,
00:43:41Sergeant,
00:43:41you had better
00:43:42mail letter.
00:43:43You may open it
00:43:44first if you wish.
00:43:45I guess I'll mail it,
00:43:46Mr. Champ.
00:43:47Good work, Sergeant.
00:43:49Sit down, please.
00:43:50I suggest now
00:43:53we all talk together
00:43:55freely.
00:43:56Well, it seems obvious
00:43:57to me, Mr. Chan.
00:43:58Marshal killed Lois,
00:43:59contrived to tie a
00:44:00similar cord around
00:44:01her own neck
00:44:01since she was so
00:44:02good a swimmer.
00:44:03One moment, please.
00:44:04One moment.
00:44:06If either garot
00:44:07had been tied
00:44:07with square knot,
00:44:09a surgeon's knot,
00:44:11the case would now
00:44:12be closed with you
00:44:13arrested.
00:44:13Doctor,
00:44:13that's impossible.
00:44:14Sit down, please.
00:44:17Today I confirmed
00:44:18a suspicion which began
00:44:20to germinate when
00:44:20I first see you.
00:44:23Six years ago
00:44:23in New York City,
00:44:24a very young and
00:44:25promising doctor
00:44:26was accused
00:44:27of wife murder.
00:44:29Marshal,
00:44:30they're lies,
00:44:31lies, lies!
00:44:31Lies, lies,
00:44:33yes, perhaps.
00:44:34Young doctor was
00:44:35exonerated,
00:44:36but the whole affair
00:44:37ruined his life.
00:44:38All right.
00:44:40He went to war.
00:44:41There he met a girl
00:44:42and married her,
00:44:43me.
00:44:44Now you know
00:44:45everything,
00:44:46Mr. Chan.
00:44:46Thank you so much.
00:44:48When you were both
00:44:49in Paris,
00:44:50you knew this girl,
00:44:52Marsha,
00:44:52very well.
00:44:53Oh, zut.
00:44:53We know her too well.
00:44:55No, no.
00:44:56Let her drop, Adelaide.
00:44:58I'm suspect again.
00:44:59You refused to talk
00:45:01about yourselves?
00:45:02What is there to say?
00:45:04The medical association
00:45:04disowned me.
00:45:05I couldn't resume practice
00:45:06when I came back.
00:45:08Marsha got Adelaide a job
00:45:09with this show
00:45:10and there was a job
00:45:10for me.
00:45:11It's as simple as that.
00:45:13I have no wish
00:45:14to reopen old wounds.
00:45:17Adelaide knows
00:45:17I was completely
00:45:18innocent of that charge,
00:45:19Mr. Chan.
00:45:20Then yes, perhaps,
00:45:21but now.
00:45:23By simple process
00:45:24of elimination,
00:45:25doctor,
00:45:26I have arrived
00:45:26at a most important
00:45:27conclusion
00:45:28in this present case.
00:45:30I am very sorry,
00:45:32but I am under
00:45:32the painful necessity
00:45:33of accusing you
00:45:35of a most serious crime.
00:45:36Accuse me, Mr. Chan?
00:45:37No, no.
00:45:38This is horrible.
00:45:38I killed Marsha.
00:45:40Adelaide, Adelaide.
00:45:41Mr. Chan doesn't
00:45:42want dramatics.
00:45:43Excuse, please.
00:45:44On contrary,
00:45:45dramatics highly valuable
00:45:47just now.
00:45:48I am convinced,
00:45:49doctor,
00:45:49you tell only
00:45:50partial truths.
00:45:52I am convinced
00:45:53you find dead girl's
00:45:54body in this room.
00:45:56I am also firmly
00:45:57convinced you
00:45:58removed from this room
00:45:59certain articles
00:46:01which Lois
00:46:01steal from Trunk.
00:46:02No, no.
00:46:03He was with me
00:46:04everywhere in the water
00:46:05on the beach
00:46:05everywhere.
00:46:06It's no use,
00:46:06Adelaide.
00:46:07I found Lois.
00:46:09That metal box of yours
00:46:10was on the floor
00:46:10beside her.
00:46:12I took it away.
00:46:13You did find her then.
00:46:15Continue.
00:46:17But she was dead,
00:46:18Mr. Chan.
00:46:19I tried artificial
00:46:19respiration.
00:46:20It was no good.
00:46:21I knew it a bad
00:46:22situation I was in.
00:46:24That metal box
00:46:25contained personal
00:46:26letters referring
00:46:26to that affair
00:46:27in New York.
00:46:28I saw the whole
00:46:29thing being bungled
00:46:30by the local police
00:46:31to ruin us,
00:46:32to destroy everything
00:46:33Adelaide and I
00:46:34have together,
00:46:35our entire future.
00:46:37This box contained
00:46:38other articles besides
00:46:40letters.
00:46:40Lots of things.
00:46:41Everyone has
00:46:41something in it.
00:46:42It was only a
00:46:43fireproof container
00:46:44of the girl's head,
00:46:44sir.
00:46:45Ruby have some
00:46:45letters,
00:46:46Winnie Fred,
00:46:46Santoy,
00:46:47some Jane,
00:46:47Mrs. Thornt.
00:46:48You can't produce
00:46:49this box?
00:46:50It's in my cabana,
00:46:51sir.
00:46:51Good.
00:46:52We will go at once
00:46:53to cabana.
00:46:54Go ahead.
00:46:59Contents of box
00:47:00may reveal new clues,
00:47:02doctor.
00:47:03Doc never did this
00:47:04to Lois.
00:47:04We care if she steal
00:47:06both, sure,
00:47:07but we not care
00:47:07that much.
00:47:08Evidence so far
00:47:09quite convincing,
00:47:10but puzzle always
00:47:12deepest near the
00:47:13center.
00:47:14Mr. Chan,
00:47:15it's gone.
00:47:17Gone?
00:47:20You'll excuse me,
00:47:21doctor,
00:47:22if I seem slightly
00:47:23suspicious.
00:47:24But it was here.
00:47:26Look,
00:47:27it's been cut open.
00:47:28I had no chance
00:47:29to slip this bag.
00:47:30Until boxes found
00:47:32can offer
00:47:32very little comfort.
00:47:33Oh, no, no,
00:47:34please,
00:47:34we tell the truth,
00:47:35only truth.
00:47:36Isn't there anything
00:47:37we could do
00:47:37to convince you,
00:47:38Mr. Chan?
00:47:38I will bend
00:47:39every effort
00:47:40to find the box,
00:47:41but in the meantime,
00:47:41doctor,
00:47:42I must assure you,
00:47:43your position
00:47:44is extremely delicate.
00:47:49Well,
00:47:50here goes my chance
00:47:52for the state
00:47:52medical examination here.
00:47:54They can't ruin
00:47:55people like this,
00:47:56they just can't.
00:47:57If Chan arrests me,
00:47:59the publicity,
00:48:00everything will come out.
00:48:01Oh, it does not matter.
00:48:03We have lived through
00:48:03so much,
00:48:04we overcome this.
00:48:06I live with you
00:48:06in jail,
00:48:07in hovels.
00:48:09I even live with you
00:48:09in pork pies.
00:48:11It's pig's ties, honey.
00:48:12Oh, what's the difference?
00:48:22Oh, hiya, Pop.
00:48:24Santoy needed some air.
00:48:25Okay, can be arranged?
00:48:27Well, that's fine.
00:48:28She's kind of scared
00:48:29with all those other dames,
00:48:30I mean, girls around.
00:48:31They've been picking on her.
00:48:32Oh, it isn't that bad, Jimmy.
00:48:34Everyone's nervous
00:48:35and jumpy.
00:48:36Couldn't she go back
00:48:37to the city with us
00:48:38tomorrow, Pop?
00:48:38Oh, I'm afraid too soon.
00:48:40You have made tall talk
00:48:42of prowess as detective.
00:48:44Honor of Chan family
00:48:45now at stake.
00:48:46Well, Santoy got it all wrong.
00:48:49I'm afraid too short time
00:48:51to bring this to conclusion.
00:48:53Can't you speed it up, Pop?
00:48:55Laisurely hunter
00:48:56have time to stalk Frey,
00:48:57but hunter in haste
00:48:58must set trap.
00:49:00A trap?
00:49:00Shrewdly baited.
00:49:02Pop's concentrating.
00:49:03He'll settle it fast now.
00:49:05Jimmy, you will find
00:49:06other assistant
00:49:07and take a post
00:49:08of observation
00:49:08of last night.
00:49:10Oh, but Pop,
00:49:11Santoy wanted
00:49:11to take a walk.
00:49:13So she shall.
00:49:14So she shall.
00:49:15Nice walk
00:49:16with intelligent conversation.
00:49:18with me.
00:49:19With me.
00:49:24They can't keep us
00:49:25caged in here
00:49:26another night.
00:49:28Chan wants us all
00:49:29to get some rest.
00:49:30What's happened
00:49:30to the maestro?
00:49:31His nerves are shot.
00:49:32He's hysterical.
00:49:34Doc's got him
00:49:34in his cabana
00:49:35trying to calm him
00:49:35down now.
00:49:36Come on, Clem.
00:49:37No, no, not upstairs.
00:49:39Well, that'll be best, Clementine.
00:49:40Madge can give you
00:49:41a rubdown.
00:49:42And sleep?
00:49:43Marble, no.
00:49:44Why, I never sleep
00:49:44until this thing
00:49:45is all settled.
00:49:46In the wall.
00:49:47Noises in the wall
00:49:48like someone whispering.
00:49:49Oh, it's just
00:49:50probably some rats.
00:49:51Ow!
00:49:51If you want,
00:49:52we can bring in
00:49:53some bedding
00:49:53and you can sleep
00:49:54down here.
00:49:55Good, I'm not
00:49:56hangering for upstairs.
00:49:57I'll help with the bedding.
00:49:58Well, that's a sound idea.
00:49:59I think I'll go
00:50:00to my cabana, girls.
00:50:01I'm terribly tired.
00:50:03Madge can take care of you.
00:50:04Oh, I tell you,
00:50:05there's something
00:50:06in that wall.
00:50:07Someone call?
00:50:08Oh, it's nothing,
00:50:09Mrs. Weevils.
00:50:10One of the girls
00:50:10heard noises in the wall.
00:50:12Mice were overrun
00:50:13with them.
00:50:14Would you help
00:50:15bring some bedding
00:50:15for your girls?
00:50:16They're going to stay
00:50:17downstairs tonight.
00:50:19Certainly.
00:50:21Earthquake!
00:50:38Earthquake!
00:50:39Earthquake!
00:50:40Run for cover,
00:50:41everybody!
00:50:42Run for cover!
00:50:43Quiet, quiet!
00:50:44We're supposed
00:50:45to be on guard.
00:50:46What is you up to?
00:50:47What do you mean
00:50:47throwing people
00:50:48around like this?
00:50:49Listen, I just
00:50:49talked to Pop.
00:50:50Yeah, but he told me
00:50:51to stay here by myself.
00:50:52It's about a box.
00:50:53If we find the box,
00:50:54everything's okay.
00:50:55Oh, is it a long box
00:50:56about six feet tall
00:50:57and got flowers
00:50:58piled up on it?
00:50:59No, no, no.
00:50:59It's a little tin box
00:51:00with some papers in it.
00:51:01And I've got a hunch
00:51:02where we can find it.
00:51:03Where?
00:51:03In the maestro's room.
00:51:05He's with the doc.
00:51:06And I figure
00:51:07the maestro's guilty.
00:51:08Yeah, but I ain't figure.
00:51:10Oh, you stay here.
00:51:12If anything happens,
00:51:12I'll hear you yell.
00:51:13No.
00:51:14And you ain't kidding.
00:51:15Oh, boy.
00:51:25Oh, boy.
00:51:26Not now.
00:51:27I'll tell you when.
00:51:29I'll tell you when.
00:51:31I'll tell you when.
00:51:32Not now.
00:51:32Be brave knees.
00:51:52That ain't nobody
00:51:52but the housekeeper
00:51:53Miss Weebles
00:51:54or Miss Wobles
00:51:55or...
00:51:56What's she going
00:51:57in that door for?
00:52:00Where you going?
00:52:01Oh.
00:52:03A policeman.
00:52:05Now, when you see
00:52:06one time
00:52:06that somebody
00:52:07went down in there
00:52:08and I followed them,
00:52:09see, so after
00:52:09they went second,
00:52:10I went first
00:52:10and I come out first
00:52:11after I...
00:52:12So?
00:52:13So, well,
00:52:14what it was,
00:52:14I went down in there
00:52:15second and when
00:52:16I followed them,
00:52:17they come out first
00:52:17and what I was...
00:52:18Don't you get it?
00:52:19I'm no good at geometry.
00:52:20Did you see anybody
00:52:21go by here?
00:52:22Oh, the housekeeper.
00:52:23She went over there
00:52:23in that door.
00:52:24Keep your post.
00:52:31The housekeeper.
00:55:16I don't suppose any of us will get any rest tonight.
00:55:18I've got one eye glued open myself.
00:55:21There.
00:55:21That should ease you a bit.
00:55:23I wonder where Santoy is?
00:55:24Snooping around.
00:55:25An old Chinese custom.
00:55:26Well, come on.
00:55:27Let's get some rest.
00:55:28I don't know.
00:55:29I don't know.
00:55:30I don't know.
00:55:33I don't know.
00:55:34It's in the wall.
00:55:46It's in the wall.
00:55:48Oh, holy cat with spring walls again.
00:55:50Oh, Clem, it's all right.
00:55:51We're all here.
00:55:53In the wall.
00:55:53It's in the wall.
00:55:54She heard it before.
00:55:56What has happened?
00:55:58Clem had a bad dream, Monsieur Chan.
00:56:00She's a Shakespearean addict, Mr. Chan.
00:56:02Dramatic.
00:56:02Oh, Mrs. Weebles.
00:56:08Fine trick to play on a lady.
00:56:10Somebody slid it back from upstairs.
00:56:12You write longhand or shorthand?
00:56:14Drink is the root.
00:56:16You are spying, making notes.
00:56:18What are you, amateur detective?
00:56:20I have evidence.
00:56:21Plenty evidence.
00:56:22Ladies, no need to be alarmed.
00:56:25Sliding panel is merely relic of old prohibition days.
00:56:28Right, Mrs. Weebles?
00:56:30Oh, more of them.
00:56:33Next time, try the front door.
00:56:35Oh, I was following somebody.
00:56:37You.
00:56:38Oh, fickle, eh?
00:56:40Ruby, it's no joking matter.
00:56:42Ladies, levity is a great cure-all.
00:56:45You will please all return to your chambers.
00:56:47Mr. Chan, you promised me I wouldn't have to stay here.
00:56:53No, child.
00:56:54Mr. Chan's afraid for you.
00:56:56Why don't you come out with me to my cabana?
00:56:58You'll be able to sleep there, all right?
00:57:04Sergeant.
00:57:09Where are other three men?
00:57:11In Doc's Cabana, I think.
00:57:13Noise of high surf must have prevented their hearing recent alarms.
00:57:19Sergeant, tonight you will keep careful watch between cabanas and house.
00:57:25Right, Mr. Chan.
00:57:26But about Mrs. Weebles?
00:57:28Ah, harmless.
00:57:30She may have overheard something of importance, but I will question her later.
00:57:34But, Sergeant, tonight, keep careful guard.
00:57:38No one must cross between cabanas and house.
00:57:43You will also check on three men, but do not disturb.
00:57:47Right, Mr. Chan.
00:57:53Doctor.
00:57:54Doctor.
00:57:57Help me.
00:57:58Help me, doctor.
00:58:00What are you giving him?
00:58:03Just a mild sedative.
00:58:04Poor devil, he needs it.
00:58:06What he needs is a good shot of truth serum.
00:58:08I heard that.
00:58:09Dad, get out of here.
00:58:12Doctor.
00:58:13Throw him out.
00:58:15He's giving you a shot of truth serum.
00:58:17We'll sweat the truth out of you when you don't know it.
00:58:19Take him away.
00:58:20Take him away.
00:58:22Maestro, maestro.
00:58:23This will calm your nerves.
00:58:24Bring sleep.
00:58:26Doctor, I've got to confess.
00:58:29Talk.
00:58:30Talk, killer.
00:58:31Throw a light on him.
00:58:32Keep him going.
00:58:32He's cracking.
00:58:33Get out, for heaven's sakes, and leave the man alone.
00:58:35Well, they all crack one day like this.
00:58:36I took that box.
00:58:38I took it out of your bag.
00:58:40Why?
00:58:41Why?
00:58:41Get out.
00:58:43It's in my room.
00:58:45My trunk.
00:58:46What's in it?
00:58:46What were you hiding?
00:58:48Papers.
00:58:48Her papers.
00:58:51She'll expose me.
00:58:52She'll ruin me.
00:58:54Get out, Daniels, or I won't be responsible.
00:59:07So you're covering for him.
00:59:08The box was in your bag.
00:59:11It's beginning to get clear now.
00:59:13You're wild.
00:59:14Get out.
00:59:14You needn't have given him that shot.
00:59:17It was the merciful thing.
00:59:19The only merciful thing.
00:59:21Uh-huh.
00:59:21Maybe so.
00:59:23But I'm getting to a phone.
00:59:24I'll bring some law in here to make Chan look like a monkey.
00:59:54Stop.
00:59:58I know it's you, Daniels.
01:00:00Come out with your hands up or I'll shoot.
01:00:02You wouldn't dare.
01:00:03Listen.
01:00:04I'll make you a deal.
01:00:05Come out with your hands up.
01:00:07Look, Sarge.
01:00:08I got this thing cracked.
01:00:09Let's get to a telephone.
01:00:11Chan's orders.
01:00:12No one leaves premises.
01:00:13But I tell you I got this thing cracked.
01:00:15Let's get to your headquarters.
01:00:16There's a promotion in this.
01:00:17And I can see that you get the breaks.
01:00:19Chan's orders.
01:00:22Ah.
01:00:23With her ankles, so go us now.
01:00:25I'll break you for this.
01:00:26I got influence.
01:00:27Not as much as I've got.
01:00:29Right now.
01:00:29So let's put her on.
01:00:34Oh, I got the Thai dick.
01:00:36Oh, I got the來了.
01:00:37Come on.
01:00:38Let's go.
01:00:38Oh.
01:00:49Oh.
01:00:49THE END
01:01:19Oh, that's them darn mice, isn't he?
01:01:39Birmingham!
01:01:43Birmingham!
01:01:45Jimmy, is that you?
01:01:46Birmingham!
01:01:46Birmingham!
01:01:47Hey, I'm stuck!
01:01:48Come and help me!
01:01:49You're stuck?
01:01:50Where are you stuck?
01:01:51Hey, come and help me!
01:01:53Birmingham!
01:01:54Yeah, I'm over here!
01:01:55Where's you at?
01:01:56Hurry!
01:01:56I'm slipping again!
01:01:58Oh, my goodness!
01:01:59He's stuck!
01:02:04Where's something so I can find you now?
01:02:06Is you talking from this side?
01:02:08What do you mean, this side?
01:02:09I'm slipping!
01:02:10Hey, give me a hand!
01:02:11I just want to know if you're talking on this side of the world or the other side.
01:02:15Hey, I can't hold on much longer!
01:02:17Jimmy!
01:02:18Jimmy!
01:02:19Jimmy!
01:02:20Birmingham!
01:02:20Birmingham!
01:02:21Good gracious!
01:02:22What is the matter with you?
01:02:23I got it!
01:02:24I got it!
01:02:25I got it!
01:02:26It's in the furnace!
01:02:27Yeah, you ain't going back in there, is you?
01:02:28Yeah, I got it!
01:02:29You sure have!
01:02:30You got it all over your face!
01:02:31Hey, what's in there?
01:02:32It's very important!
01:02:33We've got to get it to pop!
01:02:34Yeah, but you're going to wash your face first, ain't you?
01:02:35Haven't time for that now!
01:02:36Yeah, but suppose you meet that little Chinese number!
01:02:37Yeah, maybe you're right!
01:02:38Come on!
01:02:39Come on!
01:02:40Pop must be around these cabanas!
01:02:41somewhere!
01:02:42Can we wait till the morning to tell him?
01:02:43Oh no!
01:02:44He's got it no time if he has to get it!
01:02:45OK, your friends!
01:02:46You're not going to bless your face!
01:02:47You don't know why!
01:02:48It's time for that now!
01:02:49Yeah, but suppose you meet that little Chinese number!
01:02:51Yeah, maybe you're right!
01:02:52Come on!
01:02:53Pop must be around these cabanas somewhere.
01:03:11Can we wait till the morning to tell him?
01:03:12Oh, no, he's got to know tonight.
01:03:14He might arrest an innocent person.
01:03:15And besides, we've got to watch these cabanas anyhow.
01:03:17You ain't fooling me.
01:03:18I know how come you ain't innocent in these cabanas.
01:03:21It's that little Chinese girl.
01:03:24Hey, look.
01:03:42I found it, Pop.
01:03:43I have trap all set and you put Bigfoot in it.
01:03:46Come.
01:03:50Which way did it go?
01:03:51It went that way.
01:03:52Well, hurry.
01:03:53We followed.
01:03:54Right.
01:03:5470, 75, I've got to slow it down, Mr. Chandler.
01:04:24Too bad.
01:04:25I was in hope soon to overtake other cars.
01:04:27All right.
01:04:28And then, she'll be in hope next.
01:04:29Let's go.
01:04:30Eat your boy if you will be out.
01:04:30、よい or yes.
01:04:32Come, see.
01:04:32Let's go.
01:04:32THE END
01:05:02It's Mrs. Thorne.
01:05:28You're too late, Mr. Chant.
01:05:32I wanted to ruin him.
01:05:36I wanted to make him suffer as badly as I have.
01:05:41Call King.
01:05:43The maestro.
01:05:44I was his wife.
01:05:48I ran away from him, but when I tried to come back, he wouldn't even recognize me.
01:05:57He gave me a job.
01:06:00Wardrobe matches.
01:06:01I was humiliated, cast aside like something unclean.
01:06:12You can't understand about Marsha and Lois, Mrs. Thorne.
01:06:16But why Santoy?
01:06:19Santoy knew.
01:06:21She stole my papers.
01:06:22My papers in the box.
01:06:24No, no, papers stolen by others.
01:06:30I hope he suffers.
01:06:34I hope he suffers.
01:06:34Highway Patrol, Jimmy.
01:06:49Directed here.
01:06:52She deserted years ago.
01:06:54Ran away with a dancer.
01:06:55Some of her letters here in the box.
01:06:57She put the bathrobe in the maestro's closet, hoping the local police make the obvious arrest.
01:07:02Then clinched the evidence with the cords.
01:07:04Is that the way it was, Mr. Chant?
01:07:06Exactly.
01:07:07Happy solution of case will permit you, doctor, once again to resume medical practice.
01:07:14Will you excuse, please?
01:07:15I'm in very great hurry.
01:07:18But, Mr. Chant, Marsha went up the beach while we were in swimming.
01:07:22Mrs. Thorne went up the beach in Marsha's row.
01:07:24Silly.
01:07:25Making it seem as if Marsha was killed in the house and then carried out.
01:07:29Exactly.
01:07:30Exactly.
01:07:30Thank you so much.
01:07:32Say, Pop, can I, uh...
01:07:33Yes, you may take that walk now.
01:07:36Yeah, goodbye.
01:07:36Mr. Chant, no one has thanked you.
01:07:39Oh, I am sufficiently recompensed now.
01:07:43Thank you so much.
01:07:44Goodbye.
01:07:44Mr. Chant, Mr. Chant.
01:07:46What's the matter by me, huh?
01:07:47It wasn't mouses in them walls.
01:07:52Look at that.
