00:02This is the Brasher Doubloon, an early American coin, highly valued not only because it's rare,
00:08but also because of its romantic and violent history. The man who coined it was robbed and
00:13killed through the deceit of a woman, and seven succeeding owners have likewise come to abrupt
00:18and unhappy ends. Now, for the eighth time, the Brasher Doubloon is again involved with love,
00:25treachery, avarice, and murder. This man is willing to kill to obtain it. This girl tries to buy it at
00:32the price of her soul. This man risks the electric chair to possess it. This man gambles his life to
00:38recover it. This man dies for using it for blackmail. This woman would commit murder to keep
00:45the Brasher Doubloon. You'll have to get that coin from him, Merle. How? That's entirely your own
00:52affair. But what can I do? Didn't you see the way he was looking at you? I want the
00:58Doubloon back tonight, otherwise my response was at an end. Something new. He came to me for the
01:06coin. Claim it was his. Well, did you give it to him? No. But maybe Leslie did. Well, that's what
01:17you've
01:17been up to. Huh? I told you to bring it to our shop. I'm not ordinarily a violent man. Mr.
01:24Merle, but I,
01:26under the circumstances, I have no other choice. You will please give me the Brasher Doubloon.
01:38Good. We'll take a short recess. Oh, I don't think I need one. I do.
01:49Bye-bye.
01:50Bye-bye.
01:55THE END
