01:30Well, you see, Mr. Fitzhugh accomplished something that no art collector would undertake in smuggling these jade burial tablets out of China.
01:45I have an international reputation as a collector of jade, yet not even I would attempt it.
01:49The thing that gets me is why anybody would want burial tablets their own.
01:53Personally, they give me the creeps.
01:55Oh, but, Captain, you're not a collector of jade, or you would understand.
01:59Besides, Senator Baldwin commissioned me to buy them at a price of $50,000.
02:03You know, a man will take quite a few chances for $50,000.
02:06Yeah, but the 50 Gs won't be much good to you if these guys knock you off the way they say they're going to.
02:10I understand that perfectly.
02:12That's why I came to you.
02:13My life is in danger.
02:15These men, whoever they are, have set tonight at midnight as the hour of my execution.
02:20But if I'm in jail under God, they can't possibly kill me.
02:23You see?
02:24Yeah, I get it.
02:25She wants to lock you up so they can't get at you.
02:27Exactly.
02:28Sorry, Mr. Fitzhugh, but we can't do it.
02:30Our job is to catch criminals.
02:32And to protect people from criminals, Captain.
02:35I demand you lock him up.
02:36Now, just a minute, Doctor.
02:37Not so fast.
02:39We're going to protect Mr. Fitzhugh, all right.
02:41But at the same time, we're going to catch these guys who are threatening his life.
02:43You say you got the first one of these notes the day you got off the boat from China?
02:47That's right.
02:48While opening my luggage at the dock for the custom inspector,
02:51I found it pinned on a coat in my wardrobe trunk.
02:55See who that is.
02:56Yes, sir.
02:57And if it's who I think it is, throw her out.
03:00Right, Chief.
03:02Oh!
03:04Step aside, Gahagan, and let a lady in.
03:07Now, quit kidding, Torchy.
03:08You ain't no lady.
03:09You're a reporter.
03:10And I just got orders to throw you out.
03:12Oh, Gahagan.
03:13You wouldn't do a thing like that, would you?
03:15Now, Torchy, you stop bumping my stomach.
03:18You ought to start reducing, Gahagan.
03:19That thing's in everybody's weight.
03:20Never mind that thing.
03:21Orders is orders.
03:22Oh, Gahagan.
03:24Now, listen, Torchy.
03:24I never raised a hand to a lady in my life, but...
03:27You don't have to.
03:28With a bay window like that.
03:29Boom!
03:29Now, listen.
03:30You go in and tell that big lug.
03:31I ain't going to tell that big lug nothing.
03:33I mean Steve.
03:34Now, scram.
03:34Oh, isn't that pretty?
03:38It is, ain't it?
03:38Let me have a look at that note.
03:49Dr. Mansfield is sure this ain't a laundry ticket?
03:52I'm quite sure.
03:53Captain Condon here is familiar with Chinese.
03:55He served the British government on many secret missions in China.
03:58I suppose you translate it for him, Condon.
04:00Yeah, do that, will you?
04:03It says the price for ignoring our past warnings is death.
04:06He'll pay that penalty at 12 tonight.
04:10Dragon, I imagine, is some sign of some Chinese secret order.
04:14No doubt about it, Lieutenant.
04:15Fitzhugh is marked for death.
04:17Well, they won't get away with it.
04:18Where do you live?
04:19Adventurers Club on Lexington Avenue.
04:21Captain, I'll run up there and look the place over.
04:23Okay, Steve.
04:24If these guys try to knock you off tonight, we'll give them a reception.
04:26It'll get down in history.
04:27Come on, let's go.
04:30Thank you, Captain.
04:31Good morning.
04:31All right, Captain.
04:32Good morning.
04:36Oh, Skipper, there you are.
04:40Yeah, Hagen, I thought I told you to...
04:42He did.
04:43Yeah, well, what do you want?
04:44What do I want?
04:45Stevie, have you forgotten our date for tonight?
04:47Maxi gave me the evening off, and I promoted these two ringside seats from the sports editor.
04:51Now, all you have to do is buy me a steak, and we're set for a practically perfect evening.
04:55Oh, I'm sorry, Torchy.
04:56Something's come up.
04:57I can't take you to the flights.
04:58Oh, Stevie.
05:00Hey, what is it?
05:02Something big?
05:03Gee, I could use a hot story right now.
05:04Things are so slow, I had to cover a meeting of the Liberty League this afternoon.
05:08What is it?
05:08What's the dope?
05:09Nah, this ain't for the newspapers.
05:10You run along.
05:11I'll see you tomorrow.
05:12Oh, gee, Skipper, listen.
05:14Aren't you going to stop by the apartment for just a few minutes?
05:18You're awful lonesome.
05:19Well, you can read the funny papers.
05:21So long.
05:21Come on, wardrobe trunk.
05:23Hey, look, you mental wizard.
05:34Does the name Dr. Mansfield coax anything from the dark recesses of your brain, if any?
05:40Yeah, that's who it was.
05:42One of those fellas that just went out was Captain, I mean, Dr. Mansfield.
05:46He collects art or something.
05:49That's just who I thought it was.
05:51Thanks.
05:52I'll bring you a nice big red apple tomorrow.
05:54Thanks.
05:55Thanks.
05:55I don't know how you feel about it, Chief.
06:22But me, personally, I could use a drink.
06:25And a big drink.
06:27Quiet, Gagan.
06:33Still got a couple of minutes to go.
06:36But if you ask me, Mr. Fitzhugh, there'll be no killing here tonight.
06:39They'd have to have an army to get through this setup.
06:43What are you doing here?
06:48Hear somebody say, like you drink, I bring them.
06:52Oh, yeah?
06:53Give me that tray.
06:55Put the cups on them.
06:56Search them.
06:58Wait, please.
06:59Make a mistake.
07:00Mistake.
07:01You shut up.
07:02I feel a poem coming on.
07:08Scotch and soda, I adore ye.
07:10I could drink ye till ye floor me.
07:13Put that down.
07:16What to temptation I won't yield, because I might maybe lose my shield.
07:21Yeah, and you might maybe lose your life, because there might maybe be poison in there.
07:26Oh, but listen, Chief, I needed to drink so badly, I'm willing to play guinea pig without beefing.
07:31Oh, shut up.
08:00Well, Fitz, your worries are over, at least for tonight.
08:22They fail to keep their promise, and they won't try again tonight because they'd lose face.
08:26What do you mean, lose face?
08:27Dr. Mansfield means that when a Chinaman makes an appointment to kill you, he tries to keep it to the second.
08:31If there's some delay for some reason, then he'll try and make an appointment that he can keep.
08:35It's a question of pride.
08:36Well, maybe that's the way you've got it figured out, but I've got a different idea.
08:39I've got an idea if we didn't put the cuffs on this guy, you'd be a dead pigeon by now.
08:43Take him down to the station house and book him on suspicion until I have a chance to analyze these drinks.
08:47Oh, I feel like I'd analyze those drinks myself.
08:50Boy, that's better, Scotch, than I saw at Moriarty's.
08:52Boy, it's a shame to turn them drinks over to a chemist.
08:56Well, that's where they're going anyway. Bill, you see that they get there.
08:59Right. You don't know how much I appreciate this, Lieutenant.
09:01It's all right, Mr. Perthew.
09:02I'll take Fitz home with me, even though I know the danger's over temporarily.
09:05Yeah, it's a good idea. Let's go.
09:06Come on, Fitz.
09:22Let me know if you get any more of those notes.
09:23I will, Lieutenant.
09:24Good night.
09:25Good night, old boy.
09:26Good night.
09:26Get the cargo, Hagen.
09:34Right, Chief.
09:35Can I drop you anyplace, Dr. Mansfield?
09:37No, thanks. My car'll be here in a minute.
09:40Do you really think that Chinese boy meant to murder Fitz tonight?
09:43Well, I won't think anything till I find out whether those drinks were loaded or not.
09:46That's Condon's car.
09:55That's strange. That car's following them.
10:00Something's happened. Come on.
10:06What happened here?
10:08Are you hurt?
10:09No.
10:10What happened?
10:11Fitzhugh. They got him.
10:12Yeah, they got him, all right.
10:17Blew his head right off.
10:20What happened? Is he hurt?
10:22Is he hurt?
10:22Why, the...
10:23Torchy, Blaine, what are you doing here?
10:27Steve, where's his head?
10:29I don't know where his head is, and I don't know who did it.
10:30And what's more, you're not going to gum things up by printing a line about this in the paper till I have a chance to find out.
10:35Oh, I'm not, huh?
10:36Well, you listen to me, Steve McBride.
10:37I don't mind playing bald with you ordinarily, but a man's just been killed.
10:40And the public has a right to know.
10:41The public won't know anything about this until I have a chance to trap the murderer, see?
10:44Tim, Mike, this is Miss Torchy Blaine of the Star.
10:48Probably done more to hinder the police department than any living person.
10:50Take her for a walk.
10:51Where to, Steve?
10:52Anywhere. Just get her out of my hair for a while.
10:55Hey, let go of me, you big flat feet.
10:57You can't do this to me, Steve McBride. You can't muzzle the press.
10:59Start walking, boys.
11:00Let go of me.
11:02Let go of my arm. You're tearing my colors.
11:04Let go.
11:05Della takes care of her.
11:07Did you get a chance to look at the guys in the other car?
11:09Not very clearly.
11:10How about you?
11:11I didn't get a very good look, sub, but one of them looked like a Chinaman, if I'm not mistaken.
11:15A Chinaman, huh?
11:16Yeah.
11:16And you guys were so sure they wouldn't do anything after 12 o'clock.
11:19I can't understand it. Neither can I.
11:22Well, it's 12 now, sub, on the cathedral clock.
11:24My watch says 12.15.
11:30So does mine.
11:31Mine, too.
11:33I'm afraid your watches are fast, gentlemen.
11:34Mine agrees with the cathedral clock.
11:36I checked it an hour ago, by the car radio.
11:39Wait a minute.
11:40Look at that.
11:49Another laundry ticket, huh?
11:51What does it say, Captain?
11:52It says the golden dragon is never tardy.
11:56Dr. Mansfield, you're next.
11:57We'll notify you of your appointment with death.
12:00So I'm next, eh?
12:01Hello?
12:06Torchy.
12:07What's up?
12:08I thought you were taking the night off.
12:09Never mind about that night off.
12:11And listen to this.
12:11I'm on a murder story.
12:12Murder story?
12:14Who was killed?
12:15I don't know yet.
12:16Steve McBride had a couple of flat feet drag me away from the scene of the crime.
12:19All I know is that a guy had his head shot off in a car on East 62nd Street,
12:23and Steve's trying to keep it out of the papers.
12:25Yeah.
12:26Hold a nice spot open for me on page one.
12:28I'm going to show that big palooka.
12:29He can't get away with it.
12:31Yeah.
12:31I'll call you later.
12:32Okay.
12:42Yeah?
12:43Lem Key is here.
12:44Did you send for him?
12:45Yeah.
12:45Send him in.
12:52Hello, Lem.
12:53Hello, Lieutenant.
12:54Well, how's the mayor of Chinatown?
12:56Never better.
12:57Fine.
12:57Sit down.
12:57I'm sorry to bother you, Lem, but I've got to ask you a few questions.
13:04At your service.
13:06Did you hear anything about a guy named Fitzhugh being murdered?
13:08Yes.
13:09Do you know why he was murdered?
13:11I understand that he smuggled the burial tablets out of China.
13:15Yeah, now, do you suppose that some of the members, some of the relatives of that family, who owned the tablets, could be in the United States?
13:21I am certain, my friend.
13:23Yeah, they'd be pretty sure of the guy who stole the tablets, wouldn't they?
13:26Without doubt.
13:27No one likes to have the graves of his revered ancestors plundered.
13:33Yeah, now we're getting somewhere.
13:35Do you know who those relatives are?
13:37I'm afraid I cannot answer that question.
13:40You mean to say you won't talk?
13:41No, not at all.
13:44But it would be difficult for me to name every member of that family you speak of.
13:49There are so many of them.
13:52How many?
13:52Oh, at least 4,000. Perhaps more.
13:57You mean to tell me that there's 4,000 guys in the United States who might have murdered Fitzhugh because he robbed a grave?
14:02Yes.
14:03Even I might be suspected.
14:05I am related to that family through my honored great-grandfather's half-brother's uncle's sister on her mother's side.
14:14Do you wish to arrest me?
14:16No, of course not.
14:18But I'm going to have an awful job picking a murderer out of 4,000 guys.
14:21Yes.
14:21Yes, quite a job.
14:24But maybe I can help.
14:26Fine.
14:27I'll keep my eyes and ears open.
14:29Well, thanks, Lem. I'll return the favor sometime.
14:31I know you will. Good day, Steve.
14:34So long, Lem.
14:35And if you hear anything from your great-grandfather's uncle's half-brother's sister on your father's side, let me know, will you?
14:40Gladly.
14:40There they are, Senator Baldwin. I told him there's no time of night to be getting you up out of bed, but he showed his badge and I...
14:58All right, Hilda.
15:00Hello, Dr. Mansfield.
15:01Hello, ma'am.
15:02Captain Condon.
15:03What's up?
15:04Fitzhugh's been murdered.
15:06Murdered?
15:06That's right, Senator Baldwin.
15:08I'm Lieutenant McBride from headquarters.
15:10Sorry to get you up at this late hour, but I'd like to ask you a few questions.
15:14Well, I'll give you any information I can.
15:16Oh, Lieutenant, this is my daughter Janet.
15:18How do you do, Lieutenant?
15:18How do you do?
15:19This is Dick Staunton, my future son-in-law.
15:21How do you do?
15:21You know Dr. Mansfield and Captain Condon.
15:23My name's Gahagan.
15:25How do you do?
15:25I remember you.
15:26You shouldn't you play football for the Harvards?
15:28That's right.
15:29I thought you used.
15:30All right, Gahagan, time out.
15:32You said there was some questions, Lieutenant.
15:34Yes, Senator.
15:35First of all, I'd like to see those jade tablets that put Fitzhugh on the spot, if you don't mind.
15:40Certainly not.
15:41Come with me, all of you.
15:42This, Lieutenant, is my jade room.
15:53I keep my treasures here.
15:55They're priceless.
15:55The most valuable collection in America.
15:57Gee, this reminds me of a swell chopped sewage I was in one time in Chicago with a blonde and a honey.
16:04Remember, Chief?
16:05I made up a poem about it.
16:07Shut up, Gahagan.
16:08With this beautiful sediment to it.
16:11Where are the tablets?
16:12I, uh...
16:13Sleeping or headache?
16:15Burial tablets.
16:16Oh, take three of these.
16:22Now, if I might see the tablets, please.
16:24Very good, sir.
16:33There they are, Lieutenant.
16:35Priceless.
16:36Hey, Mansfield?
16:37Absolutely.
16:38So that's what you paid Fitzhugh $50,000 for, huh?
16:41Yes.
16:41Well, I could have saved you a lot of dough in a joint I know over in Joysey.
16:44These tablets are worth far more than 50,000, Lieutenant.
16:47Look, these symbols and figures trace the entire history of a family of Mandarin rulers for more than a thousand years.
16:51Well, that may be true, but it would have been a lot better for all of us if Fitzhugh left them where they were.
16:55It's a sense it would have been better for poor old Fitzy.
16:58Lieutenant, look.
17:01Don't move anybody.
17:02Come on, Gahagan.
17:03Hey, cut it out.
17:04What's the matter with you guys?
17:10Hey, cut it out.
17:12What's the matter with you guys?
17:14Ha.
17:15It ain't no gentleman at all.
17:16It's torture.
17:17What were you doing out on that balcony?
17:19Every time I see a balcony, the Juliet comes out in me.
17:22But I'm cured.
17:23You Romeos play too rough.
17:26Who is she?
17:26A burglar, you know?
17:27No, she's a newspaper woman.
17:29Well, it's practically the same thing.
17:30Does this mean the story of Fitzhugh's death will appear in the press?
17:33Not on your life.
17:33She's not going to print a word about that until I tell her she can.
17:36Is that so?
17:38Well, remember what I told you about muzzling the press, Mr. Smart Guy.
17:42Take a gander at that.
17:47A mysterious murder occurred in East 62nd Street at midnight last night,
17:51which has investigating officers headed by Detective Lieutenant Steve McBride
17:54running around in circles so fast they're apt to meet themselves coming back.
17:59Torchy Blaine, someday I'm going to...
18:02Why do you want to go and upset all my plans?
18:04What plans?
18:05Well, I was...
18:06I had...
18:07Ah, that's just what I thought.
18:08You haven't got any plans.
18:09Why don't you make some?
18:10All right, I will.
18:11Let's all go out in the other room where I can think.
18:13What with?
18:16Now we're going to get to the bottom of this thing.
18:18I've got to ask you all some questions.
18:21Some of them may be a bit personal, but I'd like to have you answer them anyway.
18:24One man has been killed, another man has been threatened.
18:28Hey, Lieutenant.
18:29What now?
18:30Found that in my cigarette case.
18:32Oh.
18:34Looks like another job of translation.
18:37Read it, will you, Conor?
18:39The Honorable Richard Staunton.
18:41Our Most High soon will require from you the sum of $250,000.
18:48This sum will not be missed greatly by a person of your fabulous wealth.
18:57Instructions will be sent to you after we have removed Dr. Mansfield from this world, which will be very soon.
19:04Signed with a customary dragon.
19:06Well, Lieutenant, it looks as if my rendezvous with death is not very far away.
19:10Oh, yes it is, Doctor.
19:12We're not going to let them kill you.
19:14But why do they want $250,000 from you, Mr. Staunton?
19:17Why, I haven't any idea.
19:20You got that much dough?
19:21Well, I...
19:22Why, certainly he has, Lieutenant.
19:24Richard's father is chairman of the international ally, Cameco.
19:26And listen, Torchy.
19:27I want to ask you one thing, man to man.
19:29I want you to promise not to print one word of what you've seen and heard here tonight.
19:33The only way I can catch this mob of letter-writing killers is to trap them when they keep their appointment with Dr. Mansfield.
19:38Now, will you play ball or won't you?
19:39Sure, Skipper, I'll play ball with you.
19:41I won't print anything until you give me the okay.
19:43Gee, that's fine.
19:44You're a swell kid.
19:47Oh, Dr. Mansfield.
19:49Be sure and let me know when you get that notice they're threatening you with.
19:51I certainly will.
19:52I think that takes care of everything for the present.
19:55Good night, Senator.
19:56Sorry to have bothered you.
19:57Quite all right.
19:58Good night, Senator.
19:58Good night, Mansfield.
19:59Count it.
20:00Come on, Torchy.
20:00I'll take you home.
20:02Don't you worry, Mr. Staunton.
20:03I won't let him shake you down.
20:04You know, you're racing with me on account of that 60-yard run you made against them Yales that time.
20:09Thanks, Gahagan.
20:09Oh, don't mention it.
20:11Good night there, Congressman.
20:17Hey, Captain.
20:18Don't bother me now.
20:25Listen to this.
20:25Bullies find no clues, and the brutal murder affaits you.
20:30Crime probably will go on the long list of unsolved murder mysteries.
20:36Well, why don't you say something?
20:39The Commissioner had plenty to say to me this morning.
20:42Well, I got...
20:42Don't interrupt me.
20:44What are you?
20:46A mouse or a detective?
20:49Three days you've been on this case, and you haven't even got a suspect.
20:51Oh, yes, I have.
20:52I got 4,000 of them.
20:54Well, why aren't they here?
20:55Huh?
20:56What made you say?
20:584,000.
20:59Listen, McBride.
21:00If you were trying to be funny...
21:02Oh, no, Cap.
21:03I ain't trying to be funny.
21:04I'm just trying to tell you there's 4,000 Chinamen in this country who might have knocked off Fitzhugh for family reasons.
21:09I'm just trying to find out where to start.
21:11That's all.
21:13Hello?
21:14Yeah, McBride speaking.
21:16I've just had a telephone call.
21:17They've set the time for my death.
21:19When are they going to do it?
21:20Tonight, at midnight, at the cemetery.
21:22Say, that's fine.
21:24Oh, no, no, Doctor.
21:25Don't get me wrong.
21:26We ain't going to let them kill you.
21:27You just sit tight and we'll grab those guys tonight.
21:30I'll be on hand with plenty of help at the funeral.
21:32I hope so, Lieutenant.
21:34I hope you're right.
21:35Okay, goodbye.
21:37Well, Cap, our troubles are over.
21:39They're going to try to knock off Dr. Mansfield tonight when they bury Fitzhugh.
21:42But I'll have a man for every tombstone in that graveyard, and they'll never get away with it.
21:46You'd better be right.
21:49You're getting kind of heavy to go back to pounding a beat.
21:53Yeah, I know, but don't worry about that.
21:55Those guys are as good as in a jug right now.
21:57I hope so.
22:01Yes, sir?
22:02Tell Gahagan I'm leaving.
22:09Hi, Lieutenant.
22:09Hello, Charlie.
22:10Hey, Skipper.
22:14Wait a minute.
22:15Skipper.
22:16Oh, Skipper.
22:17Am I glad I found you?
22:18Well, don't knock me down.
22:19What do you want?
22:20This is my busy day.
22:21Listen, I've got something to talk to you about.
22:23Now, listen, Torch, you're going to start bothering me again.
22:24I've got a big crime on my hands.
22:26I can't listen to your chatter.
22:27Oh, this isn't chatter.
22:28This is something to do.
22:28I know, I know.
22:30You're smarter than the whole police department.
22:32You've got a hunch who killed Fitzhugh.
22:34Well, I can't use any of your hunches today.
22:35So you just run along.
22:36And if you're a nice little girl, I might give you a big story break tonight.
22:40So long.
22:40Listen to me, Steve McBride.
22:47All bets are off about my not printing what I know about this case.
22:50You're just a stubborn, pig-headed cop that won't listen to someone who's trying to help them.
22:53And another thing.
22:54Yeah, Hagen, have you noticed how noisy it's getting around here?
22:57Listen.
22:58Let me take it.
23:00Okay, let's go.
23:07I'll show you, you big baboon.
23:10Hey, take me to the star office, will you?
23:18Yes, ma'am.
23:40Baby, am I?
23:52I am the resurrection and the life, saith the Lord.
24:00He that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live.
24:04And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die.
24:08I know that my Redeemer liveth, and that he shall stand at the latter day upon the earth.
24:14And though this body be destroyed, yet shall I see him, whom I shall see for myself.
24:19I wonder why Fitzhugh wanted to be buried at midnight.
24:22It was his wish.
24:24He left written instructions in his safe deposit box.
24:26Wait a minute, lady.
24:38Where are you going?
24:39Inside to the funeral.
24:40No, no, you ain't.
24:40This funeral is by invitation only.
24:43Yes, yes, I know.
24:44I sent the invitation.
24:47Poor Alan was very dead with me.
24:49Gee, lady, I'm sorry.
24:50I didn't know he was the widow.
24:52Go right in.
24:58Blessed be the name of the Lord.
25:00What a night.
25:01The man that is born of a woman and a short time to live.
25:04Quiet, Gahagin.
25:05Well, I'm right, ain't I?
25:06He's up and just cut down like a flower.
25:09In the midst of life, we are in death.
25:12We commend to peace the soul of our departed brother, Alan Fitzhugh.
25:17And to the ground his mortal remains.
25:21Earth to earth.
25:22Ashes to ashes.
25:24Dust to dust.
25:27Ensure and certain hope of the resurrection unto eternal life.
25:35Chief, look, somebody's coming.
25:38Hold everything, Steve.
25:40It's only me.
25:42Torchy.
25:44What are you doing wandering around a graveyard?
25:46Oh, I'm a lost soul, Skipper, since you've been neglecting me.
25:49Well, you might have got shot.
25:50Would you have cared?
25:51Why, certainly.
25:52Are you trying to be sentimental in a cemetery?
25:54Don't you know there's a time and a place for everything?
25:57Now, keep quiet.
25:58Hey, what time is it?
26:00I have 12 exactly.
26:01So have I.
26:02And my watch isn't fast this time.
26:03What time you fellas got?
26:04My clock says 12, Chief.
26:07Well, I guess that's that.
26:11Doc, looks like they're not going to keep their word this time.
26:15Thanks to you, Lieutenant.
26:16Well, the only trouble is we didn't catch the guys we were after.
26:18You know, I'm kind of sorry they didn't make a pass at you.
26:21I can't understand it.
26:22Hey, what's the matter?
26:30I don't know, I feel.
26:32That cigarette, let me look at it.
26:35There's the sign of the golden dragon.
26:37That's full of what is known in China as the flowers of oblivion, a deadly poison.
26:40Poison?
26:41Yes.
26:42This is one time we may beat them.
26:43I have an antidote for that of my home, if we can get there in time.
26:46We've got to be quick about it.
26:47Put him in my car, we'll take him to his house.
26:49Sirens and all?
26:50Sirens and all.
27:12All right, boys, hurry up.
27:17Come on, get him in the house.
27:29What's the matter?
27:29Dr. Mansfield is sick.
27:31Dr. Mansfield, sir.
27:32All right, hurry up, boys.
27:33Bring him in here.
27:42Okay, Doc, where's the stuff that will cheat the poison?
27:45It's upstairs in my den.
27:47In the cabinet.
27:50Belden will show you.
27:51Hurry.
27:52Come on, let's get it.
27:53This way, sir.
27:57I'll take it easy, doctor.
27:58They'll be back in a moment.
28:00I hope so.
28:03Boy, what a story.
28:06Ain't you ashamed, Torchy?
28:08Ain't nothing sacred, do you?
28:12Is this it?
28:13Yes, that's it.
28:14Swell, take a big swing.
28:17What's the matter?
28:24It's only water.
28:28They got here first.
28:32So they got him, too.
28:49Anybody been here tonight besides you?
28:51No, sir.
28:52Nobody's been here since you and Captain Condon left with Dr. Mansfield.
28:56What's that?
28:56Sounded like a doorstep.
28:57Where's the telephone?
29:06By the door.
29:07Larry, call the coroner.
29:08Why?
29:08Nobody leaves until he gets here, so you might as well relax.
29:12Now, where are you going?
29:13I'm just relaxing.
29:14You don't mind if I walk around while I do it, do you?
29:16No, go ahead.
29:17But don't try to telephone.
29:18Oh, I won't skip her.
29:19I promise.
29:30Torchy's never happier than when some murdered guy...
29:32Skipper!
29:33What?
29:33Skipper, you can cancel I called at the coroner.
29:35The body's gone.
29:36What?
29:36Your copus delecti has vanished.
29:38I thought his name was Dr. Mansfield.
29:42There you are.
29:44What could have happened to him?
29:45Look, Skipper, they must have taken him out that door.
29:47All right, boys, search the yard.
29:55A couple of you go that way.
29:56Hey, Skipper!
30:05I found something!
30:05What do you got?
30:07A Chinese Cinderella dropped her slipper.
30:11Oh, she left her telephone number, too.
30:14Let me see it.
30:16Oh, another note.
30:18Read it, Willie Conant.
30:19It's written in Chinese.
30:20You will find no more bodies of the men our Most High has chosen for death.
30:26In three nights, we shall communicate with Mr. Richard Stanton regarding the $250,000 we require from him.
30:32Signed with the usual dragon.
30:33I'm frightened.
30:34That's all right.
30:35I wouldn't worry too much, Mr. Stanton.
30:37At least they're not threatening your life.
30:39Yet.
30:40Well, what I can't understand is why they want to shake down Mr. Stanton.
30:43Did you ever collect any jade?
30:44Why, no, never.
30:45And I'll tell you one thing, Lieutenant.
30:46If giving them the money will end all this, I'll give it gladly.
30:48Any statement for the press about your plans to thwart the killers, Lieutenant McBride?
30:50Will you keep quiet?
30:51When did they say they were going to get in touch with him?
30:52In three nights.
30:53Oh.
30:54Oh.
30:55What's the matter, Miss Baldwin?
30:56Three nights from now is our engagement party.
30:57Well, I thought you were engaged already.
30:58Senator, didn't you tell me this Mr. Stanton was to be your son-in-law?
30:59Yes, I did.
31:00But the engagement has never been publicly announced.
31:02I planned a party on Friday, not Friday night.
31:03I planned a party on Friday night.
31:04I thought you were engaged already.
31:06I thought you were engaged.
31:07That's not a party.
31:08Thank you, Mr. Stanton.
31:09I'm sorry, Mr. Stanton.
31:10I'm sorry.
31:11I was just doing the thing.
31:12I have to be sitting here on Friday night.
31:13I'm sorry, Mr. Stanton.
31:14I'm sorry.
31:15I think I'm sorry, Mr. Stanton.
31:16I'm sorry, Mr. Stanton.

37:06There. You a policeman?
37:08Yeah. Want to make anything out of it?
37:10Not today. So sorry, please.

37:40Okay, Larry, this is the last act.
37:42See that all those chinoin' are put in cars.
37:43Then stick with them till they get outside the gates.
37:45Right, Chief.
37:50Say, what kind of a pack is this?
37:52I've got two aces of spades here.
37:54You what?
37:55Well, no wonder I haven't any aces.
38:00Oh, that card doesn't belong in this deck.
38:01Wait, more Chinese writing.
38:03Let me see.
38:07Well, Skippy, you're just in time. The midnight mail's in.
38:09What are you talking about?
38:10Looks like another message from our golden dragon friend.
38:12What, another one? What does it say?
38:14It's addressed to me.
38:16It says, Captain Condon, in spite of the childish precautions taken by yourself and that lumbering limb of the law, McBride,
38:25our most high will appear tonight one hour past midnight in the summer house at the far end of the garden.
38:34Mr. Richard Staunton's presence is commanded, alone.
38:39So I'm a lumbering limb of the law, am I?
38:41Amazing how they know you, Skipper.
38:43Now you keep quiet and give me a chance to think.
38:45I don't know whether you know it or not, but this party is about to end.
38:51End it?
38:52Well, I don't understand, Lieutenant.
38:53You'll all understand it as soon as I find Senator Baldwin.
38:56Oh, there he is.
39:01Pardon me, Senator. I'd like to speak to you a minute.
39:03I'll be right with you as soon as I finish this hand.
39:05You'd better forget about the hand. Come along right now.
39:07What's happened?
39:08Lenny, can you come over here a minute?
39:10Excuse me, ladies.
39:19What is it, Lieutenant?
39:21Senator, I want you to tell your guest to leave, right away.
39:24Tell my guest to leave. Are you crazy?
39:27No, I'm not crazy.
39:28Conan just got another Chinese note with some orders for Staunton.
39:31There's going to be plenty of trouble popping around here in the next hour,
39:33and people only clutter things up.
39:35Your guests have got to scram.
39:36But I haven't announced the engagement yet.
39:38Well, you can announce the engagement just before you tell them to leave.
39:41Lieutenant, I consider your methods very high-handed.
39:43Now, wait a minute, Senator. This is serious.
39:45Somebody's liable to get hurt.
39:47There's no two ways about it. Your guests have got to get out of here.
39:54Very well.
39:56All right, let's go.
40:02Hey, Chief, Larry sent me over to tell you them Chinese is gone.
40:05Swell.
40:06I'll say they were.
40:07Oh, boy, oh, boy, oh, boy.
40:13Okay, Senator, let them have it.
40:18My friends, my good friends,
40:22this is an occasion of both sadness and gladness for me.
40:27When a man's daughter reaches majority, he realizes for the first time
40:31that life's journey for himself is considerably shorter than it formerly seemed.
40:36On the other hand, he finds gladness in the knowledge that his offspring has reached
40:41the age where she is prone to find a mate of her own.
40:44A husband to love and cherish her through the years.
40:48Beautiful, Senator, but snap it up, will you?
40:53It seems but yesterday that my little Janet was born.
40:56I can scarcely realize that I stand here before you tonight
41:00to announce her coming marriage to Mr. Richard Staunton,
41:04an esteemed young man known well and favorably to all of you.
41:08I think the happy couple should stand, don't you?
41:11You seem so happy, Lieutenant. Must they really leave?
41:24Do we have to go all over that again?
41:29And now, my friends,
41:31it pains me greatly to tell you
41:34that due to circumstances beyond my control,
41:37the tales of which I am not at liberty to divulge,
41:40I must ask you all to leave.
41:43Right away.
41:46Promptly.
41:48The servants will assist you with your raps and with your cars.
41:52Believe me, I'm sorry.
41:55Good night.
42:03Oh, there you are, Skipper.
42:04What are you going to do when everybody leaves?
42:06Just stick around and watch a good detective catch a mob of killers.
42:09You mean you're going to let me stay?
42:11Sure, I'm going to give you a break.
42:12You'll get a story tonight, Torchy.
42:14And what a story.
42:15Oh, gee, Skipper, sometimes you are sweet to me.
42:19Good night, Miss Blaine.
42:21Good night, Mrs. Sondheim.
42:22Good night.
42:23Senator, we've got to make up our minds.
42:26A note said for Staunton to be in the summer house at 2 o'clock.
42:28I claim the only way to catch these guys is to bait the trap with Staunton.
42:31And have him killed on the night our engagement's announced?
42:33Janice Wright, Lieutenant.
42:34It's too dangerous in view of what has happened in the past.
42:36But I'm telling you, it's not dangerous.
42:38I've got the whole place surrounded with police.
42:40Seems to me there were a few policemen around when both Fitzhugh and Dr. Mansfield were killed.
42:44Now, wait a minute.
42:45I've listened to all the argument I'm going to.
42:46You're willing to try it, aren't you, Staunton?
42:48I'm willing to do anything that will help catch these men.
42:50Darling, please don't go.
42:52May I make a suggestion, Lieutenant?
42:54Yeah, go ahead.
42:55I'm an expert marksman.
42:56Now, why not let me change places with him and keep the appointment in the summer house?
42:58Say, that's an idea.
43:00You know, that might work at that.
43:02Come here a minute, Staunton.
43:04Stand beside him.
43:06Well, you're a little taller, but I don't think that'll matter much in the dark.
43:08Tell you what you do.
43:09Give him that white coat and he'll never know the difference.
43:11And hurry up.
43:12I want Condon to be on time.
43:13It doesn't seem quite fair for you to be stepping into danger for me, Captain Condon.
43:15Oh, forget it.
43:16I owe those fellows a bit of a deal.
43:18I owe those fellows a bit of a deal.
43:21for killing two of my best friends and tonight I'm going to pay it.
43:24Well, Senator, I told you we'd give them a real party and this is it.
43:30There it is.
43:34All set, Captain?
43:35Yeah.
43:36Good luck.
43:51Well, Senator Hagen, you people get out of the way.
44:21That's the time Staunton was supposed to be there.
44:45An explosion in the house. Come on.
44:51What happened? I don't know, sir. Come on. We'll find out.
45:03What on earth happened? Somebody must have touched off a bomb.
45:11Thank heavens we were outside. We might have been killed.
45:14Look. That's what it was, a time bomb.
45:19You got any enemies that might want to blast you?
45:22Why, no. Not that I know of.
45:24Hey, they're not after Senator Baldwin.
45:26They planted this explosion to cover up whatever they're doing to Condon.
45:29She's right. Come on.
45:50Oh, where's Condon?
45:51Condon? Captain Condon!
45:54Skipper, look.
46:01A dagger and another note.
46:05Take that, you Hagen.
46:07It's written in English.
46:08Take warning, Richard Staunton. Send no more substitutes.
46:12We dislike killing innocent Englishmen.
46:15You will meet us tomorrow at midnight beside the last buoy in New York Harbor.
46:19We'll come alone on the motorboat and bring with you $250,000 in cash.
46:23If you fail us, Miss Janet Baldwin is our next victim.
46:26They're threatening my daughter now.
46:28That settles it. I'll meet them tomorrow at midnight and give them the money.
46:30Oh, no, you won't.
46:31Indeed he will, Lieutenant.
46:32If I have to get permission from your superiors.
46:34Listen, Lieutenant.
46:35We're dealing with a man or group of men who are fiendishly clever.
46:38I think it's best for Richard to pay the money.
46:40And trust that the serial numbers on the bills will lead to the apprehension of the criminals.
46:43Now, wait a minute, Senator.
46:44Lieutenant, I insist upon it being done my way.
46:46I agree with the Senator.
46:47And so do I, if you ask me.
46:49Well, who's asking you? Let me out of here.
46:52Captain, I'd like to have you stand guard on the place all night.
46:54Sure, I'll do that.
46:55And let me know if you pick up anyone if you find Condon's body, will you?
46:58All right, Lieutenant. Come on, boys.
46:59Miss Baldwin, I wonder if it'd be imposing if you put me up for the night.
47:03Why, of course not, Miss Blaine.
47:05Now, what are you up to?
47:06Well, I'm not up to anything, Skipper.
47:08This has been an exciting night.
47:10And speaking man to man, I'm a woman after all.
47:12And, well, I'm exhausted.
47:14I'm tired. I'm sleepy.
47:16Well, can't you sleep riding back in the car with me?
47:18Oh, Skipper, I want to sleep.
47:20Oh, all right.
47:22Tomorrow morning, I want a list of the serial numbers on those bills.
47:24I'll have it ready.
47:25All right, Gay. Come on.
47:26Now, just a minute.
47:28You're not staying out here so you can telephone a story into your newspaper, are you?
47:31Oh, Skipper, didn't I promise you?
47:34That's right.
47:35Taunchy, you're a pal.
47:43That's me. Always a pal.
47:45Do you mean to sit there and tell me that you gave Staunton permission to go out alone and deliver a quarter of a million dollars to these crooks?
47:55Yep, I had a reason.
47:56What reason?
47:57Well, Cap, I'll tell you.
47:59I've been in the department for 12 years.
48:01I didn't get where I am by monkeying around with any buzz saws.
48:04What's that got to do with Staunton paying off a lot of extortionists?
48:07Just this.
48:08Senator Baldwin is a big man.
48:11He wanted it his way.
48:12If I'd have refused him, he'd go on to have a little chat with his friend the mayor.
48:15The mayor would have squawked to the commissioner and it would come right on down the line to you and then to me.
48:20Now, me personally, the last time I was left holding a bag was on my 13th birthday when I went snipe hunting.
48:26Yes, sir. The senator's a big man. We're doing it his way.
48:31Portia, you're full of ink.
48:33Steve, you can't let this boy give up all that dough without doing something about it.
48:36I just went through all that with the captain not over 20 minutes ago.
48:39Whoever's pulling this racket is a cagey crook.
48:42You know why they picked the last buoy in the harbor, don't you?
48:44Sure.
48:45Because they can see a mile in every direction.
48:47No one could possibly come to his rescue without being seen in plenty of time.
48:50That's right. And these monkeys are killers.
48:52One wrong move on a part of the law and they knock Staunton off.
48:55I can't take a chance.
48:57Well, there ought to be some way.
49:00Yeah, there ought to be, but there isn't.
49:05Wait a minute. I got an idea.
49:07Give it to me. I'll sew a button on it.
49:09What?
49:10I said you'd better get working on it.
49:12Yeah, it might work.
49:14If I can just get Senator Baldwin to do it.
49:17Torchy, I'll see you later.
49:20You're not going to wait for me, huh?
49:22Well, I'll fool you.
49:24I'll be there with my pad and pencil.
49:40All right, folks. Here we are.
49:43How do you feel, Staunton?
49:44Fine. I'm all right.
49:45Okay, let's go.
49:50Now, don't worry, Dick. Nothing's going to happen to you.
49:52You're not going to pull anything I don't know about, are you?
49:54Well, you won't do anything to jeopardize you, my boy.
49:56Now, you'd better get started.
49:58Darling, please be careful.
49:59Don't worry, honey. I will.
50:00All right, folks. We've got to hurry.
50:12Come, dear.
50:13Hagen, you can have the night off.
50:14Oh, Chief, take me along.
50:15Oh, you'll only be in the way.
50:16No, I won't. You'll have to need me.
50:17No, I won't need you. I'll see you tomorrow.
50:19All right, folks. We've got to hurry.
50:21Come, dear.
50:22Hagen, you can have the night off.
50:23Oh, Chief, take me along.
50:24Oh, you'll only be in the way.
50:25No, I won't. You'll have to need me.
50:26No, I won't need you. I'll see you tomorrow.
50:28I'll see you tomorrow.
50:29Oh, you'll only be in the way.
50:30No, I won't. You'll have to need me.
50:32No, I won't need you. I'll see you tomorrow.
50:58Gee, I hope my compass is right.
51:28Put them up hands, please.
51:54You bling money, Mr. Stanton?
51:56Well, I'm here.
51:57You know here for long, if you know bling money.
52:00I brought it.
52:03Handing over money, please.
52:18Very good.
52:19You no start motto until you no can see us anymore.
52:23You understand?
52:24I understand.
52:25You act very wise, Mr. Staunton.
52:28Please continue to do something.
52:29Look, what is that?
52:31Submarine.
52:32More better we get away fast.
52:39Hand the searchlight.
52:43Hold a ring around that floor.
52:57Are you all right?

53:46Say, that's Gahagan.
53:48Hey, Gahagan!
53:49Who knows me in this neighborhood?
53:52Bring those men in here.
53:54I get it.
53:55China.
53:56Sit down, then.
54:01Come on, all the samey, sit down.
54:03Come on.
54:04And get it going.
54:05Come on.
54:06Get it going.
54:07Back in here.
54:12Who is that out there?
54:14That's one of my men, Commander.
54:19What?
54:22Up, up, up.
54:23If he's lying while the samey's done, he'll go off him.
54:25Shoot him in the heavy.
54:36Come on.
54:37Come on.
54:38Get out of here.
54:39Come on.
54:40Come on.
54:41Don't you get it?
54:42Come on.
54:43Get a move on.
54:44Fire it up.
54:45So you don't need me, huh?
55:05Here you are, Mr. Stoughton. One good time deserves another.
55:08Right, Governor?
55:09Right.
55:10Let's see who these guys are.
55:12Why, it fits you.
55:14Mansfield. Condon.
55:17Well, I'll be...
55:18Miss Blaine, you were right when you suspected these men weren't dead.
55:21But the doctor here, he croaked.
55:23I seen it myself.
55:25Well, what have you got to say for yourselves?
55:27There isn't very much to say.
55:29We thought we'd worked out the perfect crime, but,
55:31well, we didn't count on Miss Blaine and the Navy.
55:33Well, if you had all this figured out, why didn't you tip me off?
55:35Oh, Skipper, I tried to, but you wouldn't listen to me.
55:37All you did was give me the brush off.
55:39You see, I went to the morgue and took the fingerprints
55:42of the body that was supposed to be Fitzhugh's,
55:44but they didn't check with this gentleman's.
55:46Oh, so the guy who had his head blown off was just as stiff as you pick up at the morgue, huh?
55:50That's right.
55:51I told him he was my brother, and they gave me the body.
55:53Gowls.
55:54That's what you are.
55:55Just gowls.
55:56And I had a hunch Captain Condon was a phony,
55:59so I checked with Scotland Yard through my paper
56:01and discovered him to be one of the best pickpockets ever run out of England.
56:04Oh, a pickpocket, eh?
56:06I guess that explains why all our watches were fast that night at the club.
56:09Right you are.
56:10Miss Blaine, I take my hat off to you.
56:11Oh, I'll take your hat off to Steve McBride.
56:13The submarine was his idea.
56:14I know because I was with him when he got the brainstorm.
56:17This just about makes you tops and cops, Skipper.
56:19You mean that, Torchy?
56:21If you don't believe me, you read the story.
56:22It'll be all over the front page in an hour.
56:24Nice way.
56:25And our whole crew's watching.
56:27Oh, I don't care if the whole fleet is that.
56:29All right, all hands below.
56:32You two men run those boats ashore.
56:37Gangway, please.
56:38Huh?
56:39Oh, oh.
56:42Oh, Skipper, I'm dizzy.
56:44That's nothing new.
56:53Take these men forward.
56:56Oh!
56:58Oh boy, oh boy.
57:00What a night.
57:01What a night.
57:02Stand by to submerge.
57:04Yep.
57:05The salt hair's got me.
57:07I feel a poem coming on.
57:09Listen, miss and misters.
57:11It was really worth the blisters
57:13that I raised upon me dukes in Rowan here.
57:16Put the seed of boss and Torchy in that attitude so scorchy.
57:21Fills me up with happiness and cheer.
57:25What a day.
57:26What a day.
57:27What a...
57:28Oh!
57:29My boss!
57:30Get Torchy and jump!
57:31The boss's sacred!
57:32Yeah, I forgot!
57:33A big boy!
57:35I mean, the better keep him trying to do with the
57:37bulls.
57:38Ah!
57:39OK!
57:40Look.
57:41Oh.
57:42Oh my god!
57:43You're going to need to run see me.
57:45You're fresh!
57:46Who are the way to earth?
57:47Oh, it's an eagle gr Jason!
57:48You're actually sweet potato right!
57:49You're politics right?
