00:00.
00:50The
00:50The
00:51Directors of an airplane factory have been menaced by mysterious threats written on the sky by an unknown flyer who
00:58calls himself the eagle.
01:00Circumstances cast suspicion upon Nathan Gregory, owner of a small carnival show, who claims that the directors stole from him
01:09an invention that is worth a fortune.
01:12Gregory's daughter Jean, convinced of her father's innocence, is fighting hard to clear him of the charge.
01:20Meanwhile, Craig McCoy, stunt flyer with the carnival, is trying to recover the plans of Gregory's invention from an agent
01:28of the mysterious eagle.
01:30You may have something in your bucket that will tell me the truth.
01:46Mr. Gregory's stolen plans.
01:48Well, one of them.
01:51Whoever stole these plans is working for the eagle.
01:54I didn't steal them.
01:55Well, you'll go to jail.
01:58I should rather tell who did steal them.
02:00Okay, I'll tell them.
02:03Look, a message from the eagle.
02:08Look, Major Evans.
02:13Why, it's McCoy fighting with that stranger.
02:16That's no stranger to us. It's our boss.
02:18Your boss?
02:32Good music.
02:38Good music.
02:52Mr. Gregory's daughter.
02:53Well, let's go.
02:53Come on, Mr. Gregory.
02:55A big envelope with Mr. Gregory's plans.
02:57Help me find it.
03:04Give me those plans, I tell you.
03:05Get them to me.
03:08Say the word, boss,
03:10and I'll screw these things
03:11and see what makes them tick.
03:13Just hold on to them till I search them.
03:15Try to have anyone searched against his will
03:16and I'll have this cheap show closed up
03:18and everyone interested.
03:19Oh, yeah?
03:23Hey, Rube!
03:25Hey, Rube!
03:26Hey, Rube!
03:27Hey, Rube!
03:29No rough stuff now, fellas.
03:31They'd like nothing better than a chance to close this show.
03:34One of you men has those plans,
03:35but we'll find a way to get them back.
03:37What plans are you talking about?
03:39You know what I mean.
03:40The plans to Mr. Gregory's invention.
03:42The invention you men stole from him.
03:43The invention you're building your fortune on.
03:45That must be crazy.
03:47No, not crazy, just crooked.
03:50That's a story that he and Gregory have concocted
03:53to try and extort money from us.
03:55That's a lie.
03:56No.
03:58Come on, let's get out of here, fellas,
04:00before I get us all in trouble.
04:06And it's guys like you
04:08that makes birds like me hate guys like you.
04:22And when I got into the tent, I found Clark on the ground, dead.
04:27And this young lady covering the prisoner with this gun.
04:31He admitted to killing in the presence of myself and other witnesses.
04:36You will verify that statement, I suppose, Miss Gregory?
04:39Why, yes.
04:40I suppose.
04:42That is.
04:43Go right ahead, Miss.
04:44You needn't be afraid he'll start anything.
04:46Oh, it's not that.
04:47It's because I've known Pat since I was a little girl.
04:50And it's...
04:51Oh, Pat.
04:52Oh, go ahead, kid, and do your stuff.
04:54I started something.
04:55Now you finish it.
04:56If you don't, I will.
04:58Sure, that story's okay.
04:59Just as his knob sprung it.
05:03Well, where's me boudoir?
05:05Knock him up.
05:06Right that way.
05:15Is this all you want with me?
05:17Not quite.
05:18As a matter of form,
05:20do you identify this gun as the one Clark was killed with?
05:31Yes.
05:32That's the gun.
05:34That'll be all.
05:36Could I speak to the prisoner before I leave?
05:39Well, yes, I guess so.
05:43Look.
05:44Take the young lady back to Kelly's cell.
05:50Miss Gregory wishes to see the prisoner.
05:58You may be out of here, but I'm not sure.
05:59I've seen a gun before we expected.
06:00I've just found out something.
06:02Do you know whose gun that was?
06:04I know whose.
06:05Mine.
06:06Yours?
06:07Yes.
06:07The one those men took from me in Gardner's office.
06:11That means that one of them did the killing.
06:13It's a cinch.
06:14Exactly.
06:15And I'm going to their office and search for evidence to put them behind the bars.
06:19So long, Pat.
06:20Don't worry.
06:22Hang on.
06:22Bye-bye, Jeannie.
06:29It's certain that they're holding Mr. Gregory prisoner so it'll make him appear guilty of the eagle's crimes.
06:35Didn't Clark say anything before he was killed so that you can guess who the eagle is?
06:40Only that it was one of the directors.
06:43And how are you going to tell which one it is?
06:55Maybe we can find out which one it is.
06:58How?
06:59We'll get them all together at the factory.
07:01And then we'll send word that Gregory is escaping.
07:05Yeah?
07:07I don't see how you're going to get them all together.
07:09Ah, you ain't supposed to do anything, you big palooka.
07:13You'll pay to bend horseshoes.
07:15Quit picking on Heine, will you?
07:16He's got plenty to do.
07:18Now, your job's all set.
07:20Oh, yeah?
07:22Yeah.
07:23Be at the factory when the noon whistle blows.
07:30Number two.
07:31Number two.
07:33Number twelve.
07:34Number twelve.
07:35Number thirteen.
07:37Number thirteen.
07:52Number thirteen.
08:08I've got big news about the Eagle.
08:11I don't dare say any more.
08:12This is a public phone.
08:14Call the others and meet me at the factory in half an hour.
08:16Very well, we'll be there.
08:21It worked, didn't it?
08:22He thought it was Green Tug.
08:26Why shouldn't it work?
08:28What's the use of being a ventralquist if you can't imitate someone else's voice?
08:32Then we'll have to step on it to get out there ahead of them.
08:39Hello.
08:44Okay, boss, I got you.
08:46Right away.
08:48We've got all up ahead for the factory and stand by.
08:52The directors are meeting.
08:54There's something in the wind.
08:56Come on.
08:57Let's go.
09:13Colfax 4141.
09:19Send a taxi to 241 Water Street.
09:21Quick.
10:01Buy these until they have time!
10:01Is everything all right?
10:02Should they have done yet?
10:03Yes, all right, we better get ready before.
10:16That's not the director's room.
10:18I know it isn't, but I'm going to wait in here
10:20where I can hear everything.
10:38Now, you fellas scatter out and hide.
10:41Wait a minute.
10:42You NY's me up to the plan.
10:44Well, one of the directors is holding Mr. Gregory prisoner.
10:47Now, I'm going to make them think that Gregory is escaping.
10:49And the one that's guilty will make a beeline to stop him.
10:54I got you.
10:55One of us will tail one of them.
10:57Right.
10:58Now, try not to gum up the work, you bitch, Palooka.
11:01Right.
11:07Here are the keys to the back gate.
11:08You two fellows scout around while I go upstairs and wait for the boss.
11:32Better leave the gate unlocked.
11:33We might have to clear out of here in a hurry.
12:03Here come in.
12:05Good night.
12:21Everyone has activated me.
12:23Or you know what I'm baru acerca of your son?
12:23If I don't believe to him?
12:23You're when I chose him?
12:28You're where you're trying to play?
12:50Man!
12:51Hold!
12:52No!
12:54No!
12:55Come on!
12:56Come on!
12:57It's nothing?
12:59No.
13:02Who are you?
13:03And how did you get here?
13:05The strong man from the carnival tied me up and took my badge.
13:08The strong man?
13:09Yes.
13:10That means McCoy's up to something.
13:12We'd better get upstairs and get Gardner off quick.
13:37Well, how do you like the accommodations, Gregory?
13:40You can't keep me here much longer.
13:43Don't worry.
13:44Your friends will never find you.
13:46Don't be too sure about that, Gardner.
13:52Oh, Craig, my boy.
13:54We'll have you out of here in no time.
14:03Look.
14:13Hello.
14:14Hello.
14:15How are you, Green?
14:16Pretty good.
14:18Well?
14:20What do you mean, well?
14:22Didn't you phone me that you had something important to tell us?
14:26I did not.
14:28Didn't you phone me to meet you here?
14:30You stand in the shadow of the eagle.
14:33Gregory has escaped and is on his way to the police.
14:38Who said that?
14:41There's no one in this room.
14:42Must be someone in the hall.
14:43Or on the fire escape.
15:02There's no one in this room.
15:03This way, James.
15:04Quick!
15:11Those birds will take care of her.
15:12We'll go on up and report to the boss.
15:31Shhh, Viego.
15:33Get to the street, Mr. Gregory.
15:35I'll hold him.
16:27Father.
16:28Jean.
16:29Quick.
16:30Hi.
16:32Gregory.
16:57Hi.
16:59Hi.
17:05Hi.
17:12Hi.
