00:00:00The End
00:00:30The End
00:01:00Yes, Mr. Prescott. I know. You're the king of the jungle.
00:01:18Oh, everybody knows me. Can't have any fun around here.
00:01:22What'll it be?
00:01:24Bourbon. Straight bourbon for everybody.
00:01:26I'm king of the jungle.
00:01:35That'll be a dollar, Mr. Prescott. And it's closing time.
00:01:38Don't rush me.
00:01:41That's a lot of money to be carrying around, Mr. Prescott.
00:01:44Only ten grand. I'll tell you ten times more than that without losing a dime.
00:01:49I don't believe them, Banks. I tried them, see?
00:01:51I'm going to paint the towel red tonight. Yes, sir.
00:01:58And when Sam Prescott paints the towel...
00:02:00Much of right.
00:02:01And when Sam Prescott paints the towel red, he won't get home until morning.
00:02:06I won't get home until morning.
00:02:18Maybe I won't get home at all.
00:02:23Here's your chance, mister. Ask him.
00:02:26Well, what is it, friend? What's on your mind?
00:02:28The town's full of conventions. The guy can't get a room.
00:02:31Well, who says he can't? He can use mine.
00:02:34Any friend of Sam Prescott's is a friend of mine.
00:02:37Follow me, friend. Just follow me.
00:02:41I'm kidding you, the jungle!
00:02:50That's right.
00:02:52Now take a deep breath.
00:02:53Ready?
00:02:54Now, no fair cheating.
00:02:56A deep breath, I said.
00:02:57That's right.
00:02:58Inhale.
00:02:59Exhale.
00:03:00Now, don't you feel much better?
00:03:02We're all set.
00:03:03Bend.
00:03:04Stretch.
00:03:05Bend.
00:03:06Stretch.
00:03:06Touch your toes.
00:03:08Bend.
00:03:09Stretch.
00:03:09Touch your toes.
00:03:10Now, ah, you can do it.
00:03:11That's better.
00:03:13Bend.
00:03:14Stretch.
00:03:14Bend.
00:03:15Stretch.
00:03:16Bend.
00:03:17Stretch.
00:03:17Bend.
00:03:18Stretch.
00:03:26Look, now.
00:03:27I've got 26 rooms to clean and I can't upset my schedule.
00:03:34Please, Mr. Prescott, don't be difficult.
00:03:37Mr. Prescott.
00:03:38Oh, my God.
00:03:48Pardon me. Excuse me, sir.
00:03:52Come in.
00:03:54Excuse me, folks. The train's crowded.
00:03:57I wonder if a young lady could sit here for a spell.
00:04:00Oh, I guess so. Thank you, sir.
00:04:08Are you married?
00:04:22You see, this is my first trip to New York.
00:04:26I was just married, too.
00:04:28I mean...
00:04:30You folks know what I mean.
00:04:32Yeah.
00:04:34So you were just married.
00:04:38Uh-huh.
00:04:39I guess it's pretty obvious.
00:04:42Well, go on. Tell us all about it.
00:04:45When did you first meet him?
00:04:47Well, I was working in a little restaurant in Grantsville, Ohio.
00:04:50That's where I live.
00:04:52One day, he just came in.
00:04:54Love at first sight, eh?
00:04:56No.
00:04:57No, I didn't even pay much attention to him.
00:05:00He was strange.
00:05:03I remember our first date.
00:05:05I didn't want to go.
00:05:06But somehow that night, I just found myself waiting for him.
00:05:11We just walked.
00:05:12He didn't say much.
00:05:15It's hard to explain, but...
00:05:17I felt that same strangeness.
00:05:19You mean you only met this man three times and then married him?
00:05:30Mm-hmm.
00:05:31What's he do for a living?
00:05:33Uh, he sells something or other.
00:05:35I...
00:05:36I really don't know.
00:05:38And he left you right after you were married?
00:05:40He was called away on business.
00:05:42It's almost as if you had married a stranger, isn't it?
00:05:45I don't know.
00:05:46I don't know.
00:06:04Call for Mr. King.
00:06:06Call for Mr. King.
00:06:10Call for Mr. King.
00:06:12Oh, good morning.
00:06:15Good morning.
00:06:16Good morning.
00:06:17I'm Mrs. Baxter.
00:06:18Huh?
00:06:19Oh, yes, Mrs. Baxter.
00:06:20M-my husband reserved a room.
00:06:22Oh, excuse me.
00:06:23I'll see.
00:06:24Hmm, that's right.
00:06:25He called in yesterday afternoon.
00:06:27Room, uh...
00:06:291210.
00:06:31Oh, Mr. Baxter didn't get here yet?
00:06:33No, he didn't.
00:06:34Oh.
00:06:37Junior!
00:06:38Junior!
00:06:49Millie!
00:06:50Fran!
00:07:28Don't, Fred, please.
00:07:30What's the matter, Millie?
00:07:34I just don't know how to tell you.
00:07:35Tell me what?
00:07:39What are you doing here?
00:07:40You got my letter.
00:07:42What letter?
00:07:44Well, why are you here?
00:07:48My husband sent for me.
00:07:52Your husband?
00:07:55I'm married, Freda.
00:07:57I didn't...
00:08:01Do I know her?
00:08:03I don't think so.
00:08:06His name is Paul Baxter.
00:08:09When were you married?
00:08:11A month ago.
00:08:12In Grantsville.
00:08:13What are you doing here at the Sherwin?
00:08:14This is a salesman's hotel.
00:08:17Paul's a salesman.
00:08:19So am I, remember?
00:08:20That's the reason you wouldn't marry me.
00:08:21Paul, apparently, was a better salesman.
00:08:33Congratulations.
00:08:38Fred.
00:08:39What did you write in that letter?
00:08:41Oh, it doesn't matter now.
00:08:52Yes?
00:08:56Yes, Mrs. Baxter.
00:08:59No, Mrs. Baxter.
00:09:01Yes, I'll put all calls through, no matter how late.
00:09:06Anything for me, Charlie?
00:09:07Oh.
00:09:09No, sorry, not a thing.
00:09:11Hey, Charlie, take a look at this, will you?
00:09:21Where are you?
00:09:26Oh.
00:09:32Still, not a thing.
00:09:40By the time, you broken.
00:09:45I can't give you anס hiper.
00:09:47At least for rent.
00:09:48The End
00:10:18The End
00:10:48I'm sorry, I can't hear you.
00:11:11Who? Paul?
00:11:18Oh, Fred.
00:11:21No, no, I've heard nothing from him.
00:11:26Thanks for calling, Fred.
00:11:29I said thanks for calling.
00:11:33Good night.
00:11:41Good morning.
00:11:50Good morning.
00:11:52Sleep well?
00:11:53Not very.
00:11:58Any word?
00:12:00No.
00:12:01Well, you better have some breakfast.
00:12:03Good morning.
00:12:03Your order, please?
00:12:04Oh, no, Fred, please.
00:12:06I couldn't eat.
00:12:07Oh, come on, have some coffee or something.
00:12:09Nothing.
00:12:13I'm terribly worried about Paul.
00:12:16You're sure he knew you were coming?
00:12:19Well, he sent me this telegram.
00:12:23I've been making calls all morning.
00:12:25I even checked the hospitals.
00:12:28Well, it's sent from Philadelphia.
00:12:29It's only a couple of hours from here by train.
00:12:31I know.
00:12:32I wish there was something I could do.
00:12:35Well, there's the police.
00:12:37Police?
00:12:39Well, the Bureau of Missing Persons.
00:12:41How do I get there?
00:12:43Come on.
00:12:44Oh, but I don't want to take you from your work, Fred.
00:12:47Oh, that'll keep.
00:12:48Come on.
00:12:56Homicide squad.
00:12:57You hired me to meet him here yesterday morning, and he hasn't shown up.
00:12:59Well, you've got the wrong department.
00:13:01This is homicide.
00:13:02The Missing Persons Bureau is down the hall to your left.
00:13:04Well, can't you help us?
00:13:17All right, I'll take the information.
00:13:20Bill.
00:13:21Your name?
00:13:23Mildred Baxter.
00:13:24Husband's name?
00:13:24Paul Baxter.
00:13:25And your address?
00:13:26The Sherwin Hotel.
00:13:27When was the last time you saw your husband?
00:13:30The day we were married, a month and four days ago.
00:13:33Where was this?
00:13:34In Grantsville, Ohio.
00:13:36Under what circumstances did he leave you?
00:13:38Well, he had to come back to New York on business.
00:13:41Well, who does he work for?
00:13:43I don't know.
00:13:45Well, do you know what sort of business he's in?
00:13:47Oh, yes, he's a salesman.
00:13:49How'd you meet him?
00:13:50We used to come into the restaurant where I worked.
00:13:52How long did you know him before you got married?
00:13:54Four months.
00:13:56And how many times during these four months did you actually see him?
00:14:01Three times.
00:14:03You mean you only saw this man three times, then married him?
00:14:06Yes.
00:14:08Do you have a photo?
00:14:09No.
00:14:10Can you describe him?
00:14:11Oh, yes, he's 34 and about six feet tall with dark hair and dark eyes.
00:14:17Any distinguishing marks such as scars, moles, birthmarks?
00:14:22I don't know.
00:14:23I don't think so.
00:14:25How was he dressed the last time you saw him?
00:14:27Oh, he was wearing a dark suit with a white shirt and sort of a dark tie.
00:14:33Anything else you can tell me?
00:14:35You will find him, won't you?
00:14:38We'll do our best.
00:14:39But you've practically married a stranger.
00:14:42Thank you, Lieutenant.
00:14:45You want me to turn this over to the Missing Persons Bureau?
00:14:55I'll handle.
00:14:56You?
00:14:57A telegram was sent from Philadelphia the night of the convention murder.
00:15:00You think maybe that's...
00:15:01I don't think everything.
00:15:02Chuck Western Union, Philadelphia.
00:15:03I will.
00:15:18Excuse me.
00:15:21You can go, Fred.
00:15:23Hmm?
00:15:23Go on.
00:15:24Go ahead.
00:15:24You don't have to stay here with me.
00:15:26I have no place to go.
00:15:29I know you better.
00:15:32This is like old times back in Grantsville.
00:15:36I don't know what I'm going to do, Fred.
00:15:38I can't go back to Grantsville.
00:15:40You don't have to, Millie.
00:15:41New York's a big place.
00:15:42I can't stay here.
00:15:44I'd be looking for them every place I'd go.
00:15:48The places are all alike, Millie.
00:15:49You can't run away from yourself.
00:15:55Hello?
00:16:01Oh, Paul.
00:16:03Oh, darling, it's so good to hear your voice.
00:16:08Where are you? What's happened?
00:16:11Come right over, darling, right away.
00:16:15But why?
00:16:18Why?
00:16:22Tomorrow.
00:16:23Oh, I'll come to you, darling.
00:16:27Tell me where, please, please, Paul.
00:16:32Go on to 7th and Bleecker.
00:16:35I'm leaving right away.
00:16:39Bye, darling.
00:16:45Why don't they come here?
00:16:46I don't know. I don't care.
00:16:487th and Bleecker isn't a very healthy neighborhood.
00:16:53I'd better come along.
00:16:54No, thanks, Fred.
00:17:18I couldn't let you come along.
00:17:28Oh, Fred.
00:17:32I couldn't let you come along.
00:17:37He's in there.
00:17:38In there.
00:17:43He's gone.
00:17:43Who's gone?
00:17:48It's a different man.
00:17:52You sure you saw him?
00:17:54Well, he was sitting right in that chair.
00:17:59Come on, we'll get a cab.
00:18:08Good morning.
00:18:10Good morning.
00:18:11Oh, Mr. Graham, you're looking for Mrs. Baxter.
00:18:13She just checked out.
00:18:14That's right, just about five minutes ago.
00:18:16Did she leave any forwarding address?
00:18:18No.
00:18:19Did anyone come for her?
00:18:21No, no.
00:18:22There was a telephone call, though, just a few minutes before she checked out.
00:18:25Thanks.
00:18:25I'll see you next time.
00:18:27I'll see you next time.
00:18:29THE END
00:18:59THE END
00:19:29Why didn't you meet me last night?
00:19:30No, no, baby
00:19:32There's nothing to be worried and upset about
00:19:35Everything is alright
00:19:41Sure
00:19:45Why didn't you meet me last night?
00:19:52Well, I asked you to come by yourself last night, Millie
00:19:54Oh, that was Fred
00:19:57He's staying at the show
00:19:59And I used to know him in Grantsville
00:20:00I think I told you about him
00:20:02He used to go through their own business
00:20:04Does he know where you are now?
00:20:05You told me not to tell anyone
00:20:09Why don't you let the sun in?
00:20:17Do you know something?
00:20:36I haven't had a thing to eat since night before last
00:20:39I'm starving
00:20:40Well, I'm sorry
00:20:41There isn't a thing in a place to eat
00:20:42Well, I'll tell you what we'll do
00:20:44I know
00:20:44I'll go out and buy something
00:20:45I'll be right back
00:20:46Well, I'll be right back
00:20:49I'll be right back
00:20:51Well, I'll be right back
00:21:24I thought you were out.
00:21:41No.
00:21:42You look nice.
00:21:49Oh, Paul, the person who lived here before left his card in our mailbox.
00:21:55No, he didn't.
00:21:56Oh, but the name is more on our box.
00:21:58Well, I use that name sometimes.
00:22:01Well, why?
00:22:03Huh?
00:22:03Why?
00:22:05Business reasons.
00:22:06Why?
00:22:09Who's that?
00:22:10I don't know who was here when I moved in.
00:22:19Well, let's go.
00:22:26Go?
00:22:27Go where?
00:22:28I just got the groceries.
00:22:29We're going to eat.
00:22:29The groceries will keep.
00:22:30I've decided to take you out and feed you.
00:22:32But...
00:22:33And then you, Hick.
00:22:34I'm going to show you the city of New York.
00:22:37Oh, that's wonderful.
00:22:39I want to see all of New York.
00:22:42And...
00:22:42Do you know what I'd like to do after that?
00:22:44What?
00:22:46I'd like to see Coney Island.
00:22:48Coney Island?
00:22:49All right.
00:22:50Then we will see Coney Island, too.
00:22:54Oh, thank you.
00:23:20Step right up, ladies and gentlemen.
00:23:41Step right up and meet Hugo, the mental marvel.
00:23:44Don't only be educated, but amused also.
00:23:48So, now, ladies and gentlemen, step right up and come in a little closer, please.
00:23:52Each and every one of you.
00:23:54For ten cents, one thin dime, the tenth part of the dollar, I'll tell you who you are and
00:24:00what you do in three guesses.
00:24:03Ha, ha.
00:24:03Nothing embarrassing.
00:24:05I'll try it.
00:24:06Thank you, madam.
00:24:08Step right up.
00:24:11Now, I'll tell you what I'll do.
00:24:14If I don't guess in three guesses, this beautiful prize is yours absolutely free of charge.
00:24:22Yes, that's me.
00:24:24Ah, let me see.
00:24:26Let me see.
00:24:28She's a pianist, right?
00:24:30No.
00:24:31She's a stenographer, right?
00:24:41No.
00:24:41No.
00:24:41I've got it.
00:24:50She's a nurse, right?
00:24:52That's right.
00:24:53I've got it.
00:24:54I've got it.
00:24:56Now, who's next?
00:24:57Don't be bashful.
00:24:58Don't be bashful.
00:24:59Remember, folks, it's entertainment and it's also education.
00:25:03I want to try.
00:25:05Thank you so much.
00:25:06You were just married.
00:25:10Next.
00:25:14As a wedding present to this young couple, I am going to guess what this young man does
00:25:20absolutely free of charge.
00:25:23Step right up, brother.
00:25:25Come on.
00:25:27It's just a little entertainment.
00:25:29Hugo won't hurt you.
00:25:32He's a reporter.
00:25:33Right?
00:25:34No.
00:25:36He's a lawyer, right?
00:25:39Nope.
00:25:41He works in a bank, right?
00:25:44Nope.
00:25:47I can't guess what you do.
00:25:50It's the first time I've ever missed, stranger.
00:25:51Here you are.
00:25:58Well, everybody is out to have a miss now and then.
00:26:06Paul.
00:26:09Yeah?
00:26:10I'd like to invite someone to dinner.
00:26:13Who?
00:26:14Fred Graham.
00:26:15I told you about him.
00:26:16He's...
00:26:16Yes, I remember him.
00:26:20Hey, give me my marbles.
00:26:21Come on.
00:26:22No.
00:26:22It's my marbles.
00:26:24No.
00:26:24Kids squabbling over marbles.
00:26:30Twenty years from now, they'll still be squabbling.
00:26:32Wait a minute, boy.
00:26:33But over money instead of marbles.
00:26:35People don't change much, do they?
00:26:37Will Tuesday be all right?
00:26:39I'd rather you didn't, Millie.
00:26:41But I owe an awful lot to Fred.
00:26:44Well, maybe you do, but I don't want him over.
00:26:50I do.
00:26:51I don't?
00:26:57Come on over here.
00:27:01Come on.
00:27:14I'm mad.
00:27:16You know that, don't you?
00:27:24Your eggs are burning.
00:27:25You know that, don't you?
00:27:27Mm-hmm.
00:27:31You're still mad?
00:27:33A little.
00:27:34The Philadelphia silk stocking murder.
00:27:37What did you say?
00:27:39Nothing.
00:27:41Jacob Houser, hotel bartender, who can identify the killer.
00:27:44has left Philadelphia for an undisclosed destination.
00:27:48Jacob Houser, sole witness of the meeting.
00:27:51Where are you going?
00:27:53I've got to make a call, Millie.
00:27:54I'll see you later.
00:28:03I tell you, he tried to kill me.
00:28:05It only missed me by that much.
00:28:08I tell you, he tried to kill me.
00:28:10It might have been accidental.
00:28:11Did you get a look at the man who was driving the truck?
00:28:13No.
00:28:14But why should anyone, anyone want to murder me?
00:28:17Maybe you know too much.
00:28:18You mean?
00:28:19It's a pity that you can't remember the name of the hotel.
00:28:23Like I, like I said, I, I caught a peek at the guy's suitcase when he left the bar with Prescott.
00:28:29The label said hotel something or other.
00:28:32New York City.
00:28:33That, that's what, that's what it said.
00:28:34That's what it said.
00:28:36Can't you tell me something more about the man?
00:28:37Well, like I said, he, he was, he was sort of a salesman of some kind.
00:28:43He, he was around six foot tall.
00:28:47He had a dark hair, dark eyes, and he, he had on a dark suit.
00:28:50Dark eyes, dark hair, and a dark suit.
00:28:52There are thousands of men who fit that description here in New York.
00:28:56Yeah, that, that makes it tough.
00:28:59If you could only remember that hotel label on the killer's suitcase.
00:29:02Your life may depend on it.
00:29:16I can't.
00:29:19I can't.
00:29:20Your life may depend on it.
00:29:27That's it.
00:29:28Sure, that's it.
00:29:30Are you sure?
00:29:31Sure.
00:29:32She checked out early yesterday morning.
00:29:49Did her husband ever show up?
00:29:51No, not that I know of.
00:29:53Was Mrs. Baxter friendly with anyone in the hotel?
00:29:56Yes, uh, Fred Graham.
00:29:58I, uh, I think you'll find him downstairs in the, uh,
00:30:01Oh, the city's a nice place to live in, all right, but I'll take a home in the country any time.
00:30:11Well, no, that depends upon what you call living.
00:30:13Well, you can't raise kids in the city.
00:30:15Why, I don't know everybody isn't married.
00:30:18Everyone should be.
00:30:19Well, sometimes things just don't work out the way you peg it.
00:30:24Well, the whole ball game's coming along.
00:30:26We're playing a doubleheader today.
00:30:28We've still got time to see the second game.
00:30:30I'd sure like to see it.
00:30:32Let's go.
00:30:33No, I gotta get back to headquarters.
00:30:35You gotta get a rub down?
00:30:37Oh, I might as well.
00:30:38Yeah, come on.
00:30:38I can't promise you anything as exciting as the ball game, Mr. Graham,
00:30:45but I think you'll get a kick out of this.
00:30:46Make yourself at home.
00:30:51This was a case I'd worked on a couple of years ago.
00:30:57Albert Foster.
00:30:58He was a mild little sales clerk who wouldn't harm a soul.
00:31:01He was pulling down 35 a week, and he was happy with it.
00:31:04And then, one day, Albert fell in love.
00:31:08Hmm, cute kid.
00:31:09Albert talked Dolly into marrying him.
00:31:12Promised to the moon, told he was making big money.
00:31:15In order to make good in his promises,
00:31:16Albert stayed late at the store one night
00:31:18when everyone had gone home.
00:31:20Everyone but Albert's employer,
00:31:22Mr. Simmons.
00:31:24And while the boss was figuring up the day's takings,
00:31:26Albert sneaked up behind him
00:31:27and hit him over the head with a fire axe.
00:31:29He hit him three times, Mr. Graham,
00:31:31splitting the skull wide open.
00:31:33And then Albert grabbed the money,
00:31:35left town taking Dolly with him.
00:31:37Did you have a catcher?
00:31:39Yes.
00:31:40We caught him.
00:31:42After he'd killed three more people with the same axe.
00:31:47Robert Fisk.
00:31:49Herbert Keynes.
00:31:51Ernest Boyd.
00:31:56Well, you tell a good story, Lieutenant.
00:31:58I had a good reason, Mr. Graham.
00:32:01I dare say you've read about the silk stocking murder in Philadelphia.
00:32:03Mm-hmm.
00:32:05Killer got away with $10,000.
00:32:07A man who murders once for money will go on murdering for money like Albert Foster.
00:32:12Yes, I suppose.
00:32:15Where's Mrs. Baxter?
00:32:16I don't know.
00:32:21The desk clerk said you were pretty friendly with her.
00:32:24Are you sure you don't know where she is?
00:32:27I told you I didn't.
00:32:28I haven't finished.
00:32:30Do you mind?
00:32:32There's one more slide.
00:32:36Sidney Johnson.
00:32:38The friend who covered up for Albert Foster.
00:32:42Sidney told us that Albert left the store with him at six o'clock.
00:32:45That held us up long enough for Albert to commit three more murders.
00:32:47Good day, Mr. Graham.
00:32:57Fred!
00:32:57What are you doing here?
00:32:59I thought I'd drop in and tell the lieutenant I found Paul.
00:33:02Let's get out of here.
00:33:06He wanted to know where you were living.
00:33:08But didn't you tell him I found Paul?
00:33:11Well, I think he wants him for another reason.
00:33:13What other reason?
00:33:16What other reason?
00:33:18Well, it was some sort of trouble in Philadelphia.
00:33:21What kind of trouble?
00:33:23He didn't say.
00:33:26Well, whatever it is, I'm sure Paul had nothing to do with it.
00:33:29Of course he didn't.
00:33:33Millie, hasn't Paul told you anything?
00:33:36Well, he's worried about something.
00:33:40He doesn't want to talk about it.
00:33:44Where does Paul work?
00:33:46The Anderson Chirp Company.
00:33:47Oh, Anderson.
00:33:49They're right up the street from us.
00:33:51Listen, I'll check with them and see if I can find anything out.
00:33:54Where can I reach it, Mike?
00:33:56I'll call you.
00:33:57Okay, Millie.
00:33:58Anytime after eight.
00:33:59Do you like it?
00:34:04It was a bargain.
00:34:06I know I shouldn't have, but...
00:34:07Well, I can take it back.
00:34:13Keep it.
00:34:14It's nice.
00:34:15Do you really like it?
00:34:16Do you really like it?
00:34:16Are you sure?
00:34:17I'm sure.
00:34:18I really like it.
00:34:20Certainly took you a long time to find it, though.
00:34:22I spend most of the time window shopping.
00:34:25I ran into Fred Graham.
00:34:26I didn't tell him where we live.
00:34:29Oh, here, let me...
00:34:29When will you be leaving town?
00:34:39Fred can hardly wait, huh?
00:34:41Oh, seriously, Paul.
00:34:43Can't you take me with you?
00:34:45Seriously, I can't take you with me.
00:34:47Why not?
00:34:47Oh, love, sweetie, you know I can't drag you all over the country,
00:34:51eating in one-arm joints and sleeping in third-rate hotels.
00:34:54Can't you take me along when you make the big cities
00:34:56like Pittsburgh, Boston, Philadelphia?
00:34:59That's not my territory.
00:35:01Oh, but that telegram you sent me, wasn't that from Philadelphia?
00:35:04Oh, for sure.
00:35:05I wrote that between trains passing through.
00:35:09Look, let's get out of here.
00:35:11Have dinner and take in a movie.
00:35:13All right, I'm ready.
00:35:14Get your coat.
00:35:17Here we go.
00:35:36That was a good show.
00:35:37Give it a while.
00:35:38I'll, too, please.
00:35:39Give it a while.
00:35:43We're getting all right at the finish, you know.
00:35:45Oh, I'm going to come back.
00:35:46Sure, I'll see you.
00:35:47It's a real thing, Mike.
00:35:51I haven't much time to put it over, but I'm going to try like...
00:35:54Hello?
00:36:12Oh, Millie?
00:36:13Yeah.
00:36:15I checked with the Anderson Shirt Company.
00:36:16They haven't got a thing against Paul.
00:36:17He was one of their best men.
00:36:23What do you mean, he was?
00:36:25Well, he gave up his job a few days ago.
00:36:28Yeah, that's right.
00:36:30No, they can't understand why.
00:36:31You just mailed them a small bunch of orders from stores they've been trying to get for years.
00:36:35Yeah, I know him myself.
00:36:36They're the best accounts in Philadelphia.
00:36:37It's nothing.
00:37:07Do you have a Philadelphia paper?
00:37:30No, we ain't got them.
00:37:31Are you sure?
00:37:32Yeah, pretty sure.
00:37:34Could you look?
00:37:36That's it.
00:37:37August 12th.
00:37:43No, we ain't got that one.
00:37:45Would you please look?
00:37:50August 12th.
00:37:53You want coffee?
00:38:12Nothing.
00:38:13No, I don't know.
00:38:32You can do it.
00:38:33I'm going to come.
00:38:34Paper, mister?
00:38:45Do you have a Philadelphia paper?
00:38:46August 12th.
00:38:57I got your call, Millie. What's up?
00:39:01Oh, yes, I know about that Blake tone.
00:39:02What would it be?
00:39:04Nothing.
00:39:09I felt there was something wrong, but nothing like this.
00:39:14Hasn't he told you anything?
00:39:16I didn't ask him.
00:39:18You mean to tell me you made up your mind just from reading this paper?
00:39:23I found that.
00:39:26All right.
00:39:27So here's a clothing salesman. So are a million other guys.
00:39:30He told you he wasn't in Philadelphia the other day, and I found out that he was.
00:39:34But he was in the hotel.
00:39:35Yes, but when? I carried match ballers around with me for months.
00:39:38He changed his name. Why should he do that?
00:39:40There could be a hundred reasons.
00:39:42I know you put each one of these little things together, and they make it airtight.
00:39:46But you take each one separately, and you find a simple answer.
00:39:48You think he's the man they're looking for, don't you?
00:39:59I'm going to find out.
00:40:01Millie, let me have your telephone number. I'll call you in half an hour and see if everything's all right.
00:40:06It's Parkview, 34608.
00:40:10The Windsor Apartments on 12th Street, Apartment C.
00:40:15Millie.
00:40:18That letter I wrote you.
00:40:19What letter?
00:40:21The one I mailed to Grantsville.
00:40:23The one I wrote before I knew you were married.
00:40:28I'll call you in half an hour.
00:40:36I'll call you in half an hour.
00:41:06Murderer.
00:41:07Murderer.
00:41:10I'll tell you what he is in one years.
00:41:12He's a murderer.
00:41:22Murderer.
00:41:25He's a murderer.
00:41:26He's a murderer.
00:41:27He's a murderer.
00:41:27He's a murderer.
00:41:28He's a murderer.
00:41:29He's a murderer.
00:41:29He's a murderer.
00:41:31He's a murderer.
00:41:51I don't know what happened to you.
00:41:58I bought a paper.
00:42:01A Philadelphia paper.
00:42:06I bought a paper.
00:42:09A Philadelphia paper.
00:42:12I bought a paper.
00:42:15A Philadelphia paper.
00:42:19A Philadelphia paper.
00:42:25Haven't you anything to say?
00:42:29Haven't you anything to say?
00:42:34Just going away.
00:42:37On another business trip.
00:42:40No, for good.
00:42:42Hello?
00:42:50Yes?
00:42:51Yes, I'll do that.
00:42:58The call was for you.
00:43:00He said he'd call back.
00:43:30Where is he?
00:43:38I don't know.
00:43:40I'm trying to keep you out of this, Mrs. Baxter.
00:43:43I'm not asking you to help us, but don't help him.
00:43:46There is something you can do.
00:43:58Thank you, Mrs. Baxter.
00:44:16Why did you come back?
00:44:33I never got out.
00:44:35You can't stay here.
00:44:36Yes, I know.
00:44:37I won't get you into any further trouble.
00:44:41I wasn't thinking of myself.
00:44:44You said that is how you meant it.
00:44:47I don't.
00:44:50Where are you going then?
00:44:53What's the difference?
00:44:55I wouldn't ask if I didn't care.
00:44:58Well, they're still out there.
00:45:00You better go now.
00:45:02I'll meet you at 7th and Bleecker.
00:45:05Go ahead.
00:45:06They won't stop you.
00:45:28Good evening.
00:45:31Good evening.
00:45:43He's the guy we want.
00:45:45You can always spot him.
00:45:46Just like this guy, Baxter.
00:45:55Millie.
00:45:56Oh, Paul.
00:46:01Will you follow me?
00:46:02No.
00:46:03You know, they're not so dumb.
00:46:05They figured that it would be easier to spot us together.
00:46:09Do you want to go on alone?
00:46:11No.
00:46:15How did you know that they wouldn't follow me?
00:46:18When Blake asked for your photograph,
00:46:20I gave him the one on the mantelpiece.
00:46:26What time does the car leave for Dallas?
00:46:29There ain't no car leaving for Dallas tonight.
00:46:31Is there any car leaving tonight?
00:46:32For where?
00:46:33Anywhere.
00:46:34On the way to Dallas.
00:46:35On the way to Dallas.
00:46:37What time does the car leave for Dallas?
00:46:47Ain't no car leaving for Dallas tonight.
00:46:57Is there any car leaving tonight?
00:47:00For where?
00:47:00Anywhere.
00:47:02On the way to Dallas.
00:47:04Well, there's a car leaving for Louisville.
00:47:08Tonight?
00:47:09Should have been here 20 minutes ago.
00:47:12Is there room for two?
00:47:15Two?
00:47:16My husband and I.
00:47:18That'll be $10 apiece.
00:47:27Don't I get any tickets?
00:47:29Ain't no tickets.
00:47:30Just take a seat till the car gets here.
00:47:34That's good.
00:47:38Sit down.
00:47:39How many for Louisville?
00:47:43Sir, him, and them, too.
00:47:49How many for Louisville?
00:47:51Sir, him, and them, too.
00:47:55Let's go.
00:47:56Let's go.
00:47:57Let's go.
00:47:58Let's go.
00:48:01Let's go.
00:48:02Let's go.
00:48:06Let's go.
00:48:07How many for Louisville?
00:48:09Her, him, and them, too.
00:48:16Let's go.
00:48:37Her, her, her...
00:48:46Her!
00:48:50Her...
00:48:59Err!
00:49:01Help!
00:49:31Stop the car!
00:49:47I'll keep driving and don't stop.
00:50:01I'll keep driving.
00:50:31Now get your way!
00:50:33Now get your way!
00:50:35Do you hear?
00:50:37Give it!
00:50:38Go!
00:50:39Hey!
00:50:40I'm okay!
00:50:41I'm fine!
00:50:42I'm fine!
00:50:43Go!
00:50:44I'm fine!
00:50:45Go!
00:50:47I'm fine!
00:50:48You hit me!
00:50:49I'm fine!
00:50:51I'm fine!
00:50:54Go!
00:50:56Go!
00:51:31No, no, no, no, no, no.
00:52:00He's won! He's won! The champs here! Hooray for the champs!
00:52:30What up right? One more round and he'll kill him.
00:52:35He sure would, but that was really a tough one.
00:52:37When are you gonna pick one?
00:52:39Well, maybe next time. Who knows? Your luck can't hold out forever.
00:52:42Probably what it'll be next time.
00:53:00Hello?
00:53:28I... I'm looking for a room.
00:53:36What do you want?
00:53:38I'm looking for a room.
00:53:41You alone?
00:53:43Yes.
00:53:45Right this way.
00:53:58Well?
00:54:04How much is it?
00:54:06Any luggage?
00:54:08My bags are at the depot.
00:54:10Then you'll have to pay a week in advance. That's five dollars.
00:54:13No cooking.
00:54:23Yes.
00:54:25Yes.
00:54:29Yes.
00:54:33Yes.
00:54:34Yes.
00:54:35Yes.
00:54:37Well, we'll be safe here overnight anyway.
00:55:07It's not a pretty story, is it?
00:55:19You'd better lie down.
00:55:23Get some rest.
00:55:29Mellie, there's something I've got to tell you.
00:55:35Tell me in the morning, darling.
00:55:39No, I've got to tell you now.
00:55:44You know, it's funny how things work out sometimes, isn't it?
00:55:52How everything...
00:55:55Well, sometimes things completely change in a single night.
00:56:00Now, you go along for years, batting your brains out for $50 a week.
00:56:05And that $50 seems like, well, just about the most important thing in the world to you.
00:56:12And then suddenly, you meet a guy that carries $10,000.
00:56:17I'd carry 10 times that much without losing a dime.
00:56:20I don't believe in bank, you see?
00:56:22I tried once.
00:56:24$10,000, Mellie.
00:56:31$10,000.
00:56:34And there it was, lying on the floor, right in front of me.
00:56:37And I was worried about your coming to New York.
00:56:40I was worried about, you know, how I was going to take care of you.
00:56:44And how we'd make out together.
00:56:46It didn't seem right that a man like that should have all that money.
00:56:55I may have wanted his money.
00:56:59But...
00:57:02I didn't kill him.
00:57:07I didn't, Mellie.
00:57:08I didn't kill him.
00:57:11Why did you hide?
00:57:15Well, who'd believe me?
00:57:29What are they doing to him?
00:57:49I... I don't know.
00:57:53Will you let me see him?
00:57:55Well, I... I ain't got no say here.
00:58:00Aren't you a detective?
00:58:02No, I'm... I'm only a bartender.
00:58:07You're Jacob Hauser.
00:58:10I'm sorry, Mrs. Baxter.
00:58:13All I...
00:58:14All I did was tell him the truth.
00:58:16I'm not blaming you.
00:58:20You... been married long?
00:58:23Five weeks tomorrow.
00:58:24Mrs. Baxter.
00:58:29You can go.
00:58:31Can't I see him?
00:58:32Not right now.
00:58:34When?
00:58:35Tomorrow, maybe.
00:58:36Excuse me?
00:58:37It's always a...
00:58:38That's...
00:58:39How much?
00:58:40Oh, good evening.
00:58:41Good evening.
00:58:42Is, uh, Mr. Graham in?
00:58:43He's on the roof guard.
00:58:44Shall I connect you?
00:58:45Uh, no.
00:58:46No, I'll go up.
00:58:47Oh, Mrs. Baxter.
00:58:48Yes?
00:58:49Uh, a letter for you.
00:58:50Letter?
00:58:51Oh, good evening.
00:58:53Good evening. Is Mr. Graham in?
00:58:55He's on the roof garden. Shall I connect you?
00:58:57Oh, no, no. I'll go out.
00:58:58Oh, Mrs. Baxter.
00:58:59Yes?
00:59:00A letter for you.
00:59:01Letter?
00:59:02Yes, forwarded from Grantsville.
00:59:05Oh, Fred's letter.
00:59:16Roof garden, please.
00:59:21Well, how'd things go?
00:59:36I couldn't see it.
00:59:38Too windy for you?
00:59:39Yes.
00:59:48Oh, your letter came.
00:59:50Let me have it.
00:59:50Let me read it.
00:59:52No, you don't want to know.
00:59:53No, please.
01:00:16Hotel Philadelphia.
01:00:17Yeah.
01:00:20That present.
01:00:32It was a pair of silk stockings.
01:00:50You never sent them?
01:00:56You were in the Hotel Philadelphia that night.
01:00:59The night Prescott was...
01:01:02Fred.
01:01:04You.
01:01:09No, I understand.
01:01:11You weren't trying to find Paul for me, but for the police.
01:01:14That's why you took me to Lieutenant Blake instead of the Missing Persons Bureau.
01:01:19Oh, I know how you'd stop me from telling Blake I found Paul.
01:01:22You wanted this letter.
01:01:24You had to get a hold of it before I found out what happened.
01:01:26I'm going to tell you.
01:01:29Don't you see?
01:01:30He did it, not Paul.
01:01:31Well, I'd have to have more than your word for it, Mr. Braxton.
01:01:34But, but, but the stocking, that letter.
01:01:37There's no mention here of any stockings.
01:01:38It just says, uh, that present, I promised you.
01:01:40It doesn't mean a thing.
01:01:42Oh, there must be some way I can prove it.
01:01:44Something.
01:01:45We can do it.
01:01:45We haven't found the money yet.
01:01:47Don't be too hopeful.
01:01:50Have a car ready.
01:01:53There's no use in your waiting.
01:01:54You go on home.
01:01:55If there's anything, I'll call you.
01:01:56There's no use in your waiting.
01:02:26Well, come in, Lieutenant.
01:02:31I've been expecting.
01:02:33Wait here.
01:02:39Mr. Graham, did you promise Mrs. Baxter a pair of silk stockings?
01:02:42Yes, I did.
01:02:44But I, uh, I couldn't get them.
01:02:46What about your letter?
01:02:48Well, I got us something else instead.
01:02:50It was sort of supposed to be a surprise.
01:02:53May I see it?
01:02:54Sure.
01:02:56Do you mind if we search the room?
01:03:03Go ahead.
01:03:05If you find $10,000, I'll split it.
01:03:08Come in, boys.
01:03:09Shall we wait in the hall?
01:03:10I don't like this any more than you, Mr. Graham, but we have to follow up every lead.
01:03:21Oh, I understand.
01:03:22You know, you'd be surprised how much it takes to convict a murderer.
01:03:24You have a jury of 12 ordinary people.
01:03:28They've never even seen a murderer.
01:03:30They expect some wild-eyed maniac with blood in his hands.
01:03:34And when you show them someone who looks the same as they, they just don't believe you.
01:03:37That's why we have to clear up all the loose ends.
01:03:42So it's airtight.
01:03:45Am I keeping you from something?
01:03:47Well, I'd like to catch the 1115.
01:03:49I'm due in Atlanta on Thursday.
01:03:50You'll make it.
01:03:52You take that Albert Foster.
01:03:53I showed you his picture.
01:03:55Why did we have a time convicting him?
01:03:56And with four bodies to show, too.
01:03:58There was one old lady on the jury who tied up the verdict for six days just because she couldn't believe a man with such a sweet smile was a killer.
01:04:05Then there was Professor, uh, Professor Stanley.
01:04:10You remember him?
01:04:13Sure.
01:04:14Sure?
01:04:15Sure what?
01:04:18You were telling me about Albert Foster.
01:04:21When I finished about Albert Foster, I was talking about Professor Stanley.
01:04:24Tell me about him. I'd like to hear.
01:04:26You're not interested.
01:04:27Sure I am. Tell me.
01:04:29Forget it.
01:04:43Say, do you remember that woman who poisoned Sixth Husband for their insurance?
01:04:46What was her name? Goldsmith. Emma Goldsmith.
01:04:49And the man in the case, the chauffeur, wasn't it?
01:04:52They collected over $100,000.
01:04:54They would have gotten away with it, too, if it hadn't been for Emma Goldsmith.
01:04:58Borden?
01:04:59Emma Borden?
01:05:00No, no, this was... You're thinking about somebody else.
01:05:01This was Goldsmith.
01:05:02I remember distinctly I know a buyer in Miami named Goldsmith.
01:05:06Albert Goldsmith.
01:05:07I thought about him as soon as I read about the case.
01:05:10He took me out to his house one time.
01:05:11He's got a beautiful house on the hill.
01:05:12I'm going to look in the ocean.
01:05:12There are no hills in Miami.
01:05:14No, that's right.
01:05:15He didn't live in Miami.
01:05:15He lived just outside.
01:05:17You ought to see that house.
01:05:18That's the most beautiful thing you've ever seen.
01:05:1915 rooms in a gun closet.
01:05:20Wait a minute.
01:05:22Hold it.
01:05:22Do you have a letter there addressed to Fred Graham, Atlanta, Georgia?
01:05:31Fred Graham?
01:05:32Fred Graham.
01:05:33Abercrombie.
01:05:35Johnson.
01:05:37Kerch.
01:05:52Excuse me, please.
01:05:59Pardon me.
01:05:59Excuse me.
01:06:01Excuse me.
01:06:02Excuse me.
01:06:05Come in.
01:06:07Excuse me, folks.
01:06:08The train's crowded.
01:06:10I wonder if a young lady could sit here for a spell.
01:06:14Bring her in.
01:06:16Thank you, sir.
01:06:17This way, please.
01:06:18I was just married, too.
01:06:35Pardon me.
01:06:42Tell us all about it, my dear.
01:06:43Well, I was working in a restaurant, and he came in one day.
01:06:48And so he said he liked me, and that's the way it started.
01:06:53I was working in a restaurant.
