00:05The
00:51A mysterious criminal who calls himself The Eagle is plotting against the directors of an airplane factory,
00:58whom he has tried to frighten with warnings written on the sky in smoke and fire.
01:04The directors have reason to suspect that The Eagle is Nathan Gregory, owner of a small carnival show,
01:11who has accused them of stealing from him an invention that is worth a fortune.
01:17Agents of The Eagle, posing as relatives of Gregory, have railroaded him to a private sanitarium.
01:23But Gregory's daughter, Jean, also held captive in the sanitarium, has outwitted her nurse and phoned for help.
01:31Craig McCoy, stunt flyer with the carnival, has entered the sanitarium disguised in a surgeon's mask and smock,
01:39while his friend, the strong man, waits outside with a car to get Gregory away.
01:45Let me go. Let me go right there, you. Let me. I don't belong. You can help.
01:50Get a motor started.
02:02Not in the car. I'll hold these boys up.
02:18Come on. We've got to stop Gregory.
02:29Come on. We've got to stop Gregory.
02:48Come on.
02:48Beat it around a corner. I'm going back to help Craig.
03:11Go on through, Jean.
03:12If we stop, they'll get us.
03:23Don't stop. Go on.
03:25It's no use. We've had a blowout.
03:33There's still a chance, Daddy. Let's run for it.
03:48They'll take it to the brush.
03:51They'll take it to the brush.
03:55They'll take it to the brush.
04:16They'll take it to the brush.
04:16Before we can put the sparrow on, they'll be halfway to town.
04:19Well, change it as quick as you can and pick me up at the drugstore.
04:21I've got to report to the Eagle.
04:24What do those fellows mean by coming here and creating a disturbance?
04:27Well, with a sock in the jaw, I got.
04:29Sure was a fight while it lasted.
04:30I don't think it was.
04:32One of the men didn't get away.
04:34He must still be in that room.
04:35Let's find out.
04:36Okay. Let's look.
05:01Let's go.
05:02In another minute, we'd have been too late to revive him.
05:06Get me a wet cloth.
05:13You needn't bother anymore.
05:15I'll take charge of him.
05:18We're going to bring this fellow, too, and turn him over to the police.
05:21Oh, yeah?
05:39Let's go.
05:40Go get the keys.
05:42Yeah.
05:43Gregory got away.
05:45But McCoy is still in the hospital.
05:50Yeah.
05:52Okay, boss.
05:53I got you.
05:58I got you.
06:03The boss has got a great idea, but we've got to get a hold of a leather coat somewhere.
06:08What's the matter with the one on the back of the car there?
06:14McCoy's own flying tog.
06:17What could be sweeter?
06:19Back to the hospital, quick.
06:44I'll count over one seat.
06:45Give us a moment.
06:47Come on.
06:47We'll take it back.
06:48The police.
06:48All right.
06:48Call the police.
06:49Let's go.
06:49I'll take it.
06:49But your office, we've got to go.
06:51And don't think I'm kidding.
06:55One of these days, I make you eat that top gun.
07:23I'll get McCoy ready.
07:42Hi, Sipper.
07:51We stole a couple of minutes between acts just to sneak in and say, howdy.
08:01Gee, it's good to have you back with us again, Mr. Gregory.
08:04And it's good to be back again, too, Billy.
08:10But I'm worried about Craig.
08:12Why doesn't he come back?
08:14Uh, you don't even worry about him as long as he has that human Derek with him.
08:25Well, what happened?
08:26Where's Craig?
08:27They got him away from me.
08:28Why, what are you doing, you big palooka?
08:31Picking feathers off a duck?
08:36See, you quit picking on me.
08:39I did my best I could.
08:41But they had a gun on me.
08:45You're still a big palooka.
08:49You're still a big palooka.
08:49That settles it.
08:51None of you are safe as long as the eagle continues his attacks on me.
08:55Daddy, what can we do?
08:57There's only one thing to do.
09:00Give myself up to the police.
09:01The police?
09:02Why, Sipper, they'll arrest you for the eagle's crimes.
09:05I know.
09:06But if they have me in jail and the crimes continue, it will prove my innocence.
09:12Your father is right, Gene.
09:14It'll not only prove his innocence, but he'll be safe from his enemies.
09:18When do you figure on doing it?
09:21There's no use putting it off.
09:25Arrest him.
09:33I got a warrant for your arrest, Gregory.
09:36You're not so smart.
09:38Mr. Gregory was on his way to jail.
09:40Where is he safe from, you birds?
09:42That's a pretty thin story.
09:44But it's true.
09:45What, give yourself up with all the eagle's crimes against you?
09:49My father is not the eagle.
09:51And no one knows it better than you.
09:53What do you mean by that?
09:54What do you think she means, you lame brain?
09:56Ah, cut out the round.
09:58If Mr. Gregory was on his way to the station,
10:02I don't guess he's got any objections to going along with us.
10:16So you think I'm the eagle, do you?
10:18Then how do you explain that skyrocket?
10:21Another message from the eagle.
10:23I'm standing.
10:25Look.
10:26He has written your name.
10:28And now he's drawing a line through it.
10:31It means I'm a marked man.
10:33And it also proves that Mr. Gregory is not the eagle.
10:37Nothing of the sort.
10:38It means that somebody's doing the writing for him.
10:41Probably young McCoy.
10:43Look, the plane's in trouble.
10:45He's going to make a forced landing.
10:49I'm going to see who's in that plane.
10:52You take charge of the prisoner, gentlemen.
10:56Yes, and we'll stay and see that you don't get rough with him.
11:07He's making his landing all right.
11:09Yes.
11:11Here comes the police car.
11:13Everything is working out, it's figured.
11:46He's going to be in trouble.
11:47He's going to be out of trouble.
11:48You're going to be out of trouble.
12:14Untie his hand.
12:21I hear something for him to find when they search him.
12:24I hear something for him to find when they search him.
12:30Oh, my God.
12:39Hold it.
12:41Sure was a close call.
12:43Ten seconds later, and he got away from us.
12:46Craig, you, the sky rider.
12:49That's not true, Gene. I wasn't in that plane.
12:52The whole thing's a frame-up.
12:54Keep quiet.
12:55How did you two men happen to be on the job this way?
12:58Why, we're a couple of private detectives
13:00working on the case of the airplane company.
13:02It's a lie. He's working for the Eagle.
13:04Looks to me like you're working for the Eagle.
13:06We'll find out more about this when we get back to the carnival grounds.
13:09Can you drive my car?
13:11Yes.
13:11You two men stay here with the plane. Come on.
13:14Come on.
13:28Hello, Mr. Green. I've been looking for you.
13:30How did you know I was here?
13:32I phoned the office, and Mr. Ward told me.
13:35I've made some important discoveries.
13:44I see you've got the Eagle.
13:46And I've got clues that lead to McCoy as his aide.
13:50The fellow who has been writing his messages into the sky.
13:54What have you got to say about that, Gregory?
13:56I am not interested in the stupid lies of your paid thugs, Gene.
14:00What's that? You heard what he said.
14:06So, you caught the sky writer.
14:09Red-handed.
14:10Just as he was trying to make his getaway from the plane.
14:14Did you find anything on him that shows he's working with Gregory?
14:17You know he didn't.
14:18You frame me, but you can't drag Mr. Gregory into this.
14:20I'm not so sure. I haven't searched you yet.
14:33I'm not sure.
14:33Stand by.
14:34When the directors reach the carnival grounds, write Danby.
14:38And draw a line through it.
14:40Gee.
14:41I suppose it's useless to deny writing that.
14:44Certainly.
14:44It's useless to deny anything.
14:46They framed their plot too well.
14:48You can arrest me, but not till after I've told my friends the truth.
14:56The frame-up was perfect.
14:58They planted these flying togs on me, planted the forged note in my pocket,
15:01and planted one thing more on me that you haven't found yet.
15:04One thing that I can use against you.
15:06They planted this.
15:08We don't stand a chance, Mr. Gregory. Make a run for us.
15:11Make a run for us.
15:14Drop that gun.
15:16Gee.
15:17Drop it.
15:20Hold it.
15:23You talk of frame-ups after what you've done to my father.
15:26You used that sky writing in your own crooked game.
15:29You planted that note to make it appear that you were only an agent.
15:31of my father.
15:32Then you urge him to flee.
15:35Branding him.
15:36Your best friend.
15:38As guilty.
15:40We'll see that he gets what he deserves.
15:42Stand where you are.
15:44We carnival people have our own way of dealing with craters.
15:47Take him.
15:49And peg him out.
15:51Peg him out?
15:52Jean, you don't mean...
15:53You know what I mean.
15:54It's a trick.
15:55To get him away from us.
15:56You think it's a trick, do you?
15:59Well...
16:00See for yourselves.
16:01Take him outside.
16:09I'm sorry.
16:10I'm sorry.
16:10I'm sorry.
16:21I'm sorry.
16:25I'm sorry.
16:30I'm sorry.
16:32You turned on to me.
16:32There's no matter where we can see those clouds.
16:40We may be mistaken, Jean.
16:42Hadn't we better stop them before it's too late?
16:44He's guilty.
16:46Let them peg him off.
16:49Ow!
17:12Jean!
17:14Jean!
17:15I swear I'm not guilty.
17:33Don't murder your father.
17:34There it is.
17:35Don't kill me.
17:35If you eat so lucky, I'mоль.
17:41I hate so many people in a Hampstead!
17:42It is crazy.
