00:51A mysterious criminal who calls himself the Eagle
00:55is plotting against the directors of an airplane factory
00:59whom he has tried to frighten with warnings written on the sky in smoke and fire.
01:05The directors have reason to suspect that the Eagle is Nathan Gregory,
01:10owner of a small carnival show,
01:12who has accused them of stealing from him an invention worth a fortune.
01:17A bill of sale on which the directors base their claim to the invention
01:21has been mysteriously stolen,
01:24but Craig McCoy, stunt flyer with the carnival,
01:27has traced the theft to one of the directors named Green
01:31and has recovered the paper with the aid of his friend Henry,
01:35the ventriloquist of the show.
01:37Don't move, Evans.
01:39Always have two or three strings to your bowl, Major.
01:51You're a fool. We're in a fine jam now.
02:07Give me that bill of sale.
02:09Come and get it.
02:15Come.
02:24Come.
02:26Come.
02:28Come.
02:28Come.
02:28Come.
02:33Come!
02:35Come on, then.
02:37Come.
02:38Come.
02:39You get left.
02:41Well, we got him both.
02:43Yes, I see you got him, but what I want to know is,
02:45have you got the papers?
02:46Well, no.
02:48He dropped them when it fell off the car.
02:50And it went in that.
03:01Are you sure of that?
03:03Absolutely.
03:04I saw it go down.
03:05A fine mess you've made of things.
03:07If you'd followed my instructions,
03:09he'd never gotten into the house,
03:10let alone getting the bill of sale.
03:13So you're the Eagle, are you, Green?
03:16What do you mean by that, McCoy?
03:18I know these two men are working for the Eagle,
03:19and now I see it's you they're taking orders from.
03:21Yeah, well, you can think what you like.
03:23It won't do you any good.
03:24You're going where you won't have a chance to talk.
03:27Throw it in the car.
03:34Now, if we could only get a hold of Gregory,
03:36we'd have the whole thing in our hands.
03:38Well, that's very simple.
03:40We'll make McCoy phone Gregory to come up to the office.
03:42That's a good idea.
03:43Get back to town.
03:44Come on, get going, you.
03:45All right.
03:47Don't miss my hat.
03:48Get going, I say.
03:58There's the phone, McCoy.
04:00Call Gregory and tell him to come down here.
04:02You're wasting your time, Green.
04:04I'll never do that.
04:06I'm not fooling with you, McCoy.
04:08I'll give you just three seconds to phone.
04:11And after you've shot me, who'll telephone Gregory?
04:17He will.
04:20Have you forgotten that he's a ventriloquist?
04:23He can imitate anybody's voice, including yours.
04:27Me, double-crossed the skipper?
04:29Not in a thousand years.
04:32One of you two birds is going to phone Gregory.
04:34And I don't care which.
05:00You know, they can melt lead with one of those things.
05:23Wait.
05:24Leave him out of this.
05:26I'll do what you want.
05:28I thought you would.
05:32I tell you, Gene, something must have happened to Craig.
05:39He can take care of himself, all right, Dad?
05:49Hello?
05:50Is your father there, Gene?
05:52Yes, he's here.
05:54What?
05:55Well, where is he?
05:56I just told you he was here.
05:58They took him?
06:00Who took him?
06:02What's the matter?
06:04The asylum doctors grabbed Gregory and took him back to the Ridd Path Sanitarium.
06:09Well, this gums up everything.
06:11We've got to get him out of there.
06:13You stay here and watch these two birds till we get back with Gregory.
06:17Go ahead.
06:23Central.
06:24Where did that call come from?
06:25You must trace it.
06:27It's a matter of life and death.
06:31Craig wouldn't have acted like that if he wasn't in trouble.
06:35We've got to find out where he is and try to help him.
06:45Hello?
06:46Who's talking?
06:47Oh, I didn't recognize your voice.
06:49Where are Moran Boyle?
06:53They've gone out to capture Gregory.
06:57I've got McCoy here with me.
07:01Yeah.
07:02This time I've got everything under control.
07:05All right.
07:07Goodbye.
07:19Goodbye.
07:31Oh, Dantley, we've been waiting for you.
07:33I'm sorry, gentlemen.
07:34I've just received a very important phone call and won't be able to attend the meeting.
07:48Hello, Ridd Path Sanitarium?
07:51Well, those two men that brought Mr. Gregory to you will be back soon asking for him.
07:55Good.
07:56We want to question those men.
07:58Mr. Gregory's test proved him sane.
08:01They're crooks.
08:02Hold them, will you please?
08:04Thanks. I'll be there.
08:08Now, Mr. Green, you're going to tell us the truth about that bill of sale.
08:12You can't make me talk.
08:18Don't you think you'd better talk?
08:21I... I told you the truth last night.
08:24Danby and I bought the rights from a mechanic named Kelly.
08:28Frederick P. Kelly.
08:29Can you produce this, Kelly, to back up your statement?
08:34I don't know where he is.
08:36But I know where he is.
08:38He's in jail for murdering Clark.
08:41Great. That simplifies everything.
08:43Phone Gregory and tell him to meet you and Green at the police station and I'll get more on boil.
08:47Well, we'll have a final showdown.
08:51Go on. Get back.
08:55We've convinced Gregory that we're the rightful owners of the invention.
08:58I'm not so sure of that.
09:00You know, Gregory was here when the bill of sale was stolen.
09:04Has it ever occurred to you that Gregory might have taken it to destroy our proof of rightful ownership?
09:12Nonsense.
09:13We've heard the last of Gregory.
09:15The last of Gregory.
09:16Look.
09:25That's Gregory's answer.
09:27What can we do against Mr. Man?
09:29We have some threats written by a phantom plane.
09:32And those threats have always been followed by death.
09:35I'm through.
09:36So am I.
09:38Why are you cowards?
09:40Quitters.
09:41I'm going to carry on this fight if I have to do it all by myself.
09:44Go ahead.
09:45I'm getting out of here.
09:47All right.
09:48I'll take over your shares in this company.
09:50If you're willing to let them go at my price.
09:55What do you mean?
09:57Your price.
09:58We're going to police headquarters and don't try any monkey business on the way.
10:02I'll have a gun in my pocket. Cover him.
10:05Come on.
10:11I'll have a gun in my pocket.
10:12Craig's safe.
10:14How do you know?
10:15Henry just phoned.
10:17Craig wants us to meet him at police headquarters right away.
10:19Police headquarters?
10:20Yes.
10:21They've got the eagle.
10:56They've got the gun.
10:57They've got a gun in my pocket.
10:57They've got the gun in here.
10:57Heading his pocket.
10:58What's the doing?
11:15We hear you've got Gregory back again.
11:18Gregory?
11:19Oh, yes.
11:20You're the gentleman who brought him here.
11:22If you'll wait just a moment, I'll let you see him.
11:26Oh, yes.
11:28You're the gentleman who brought him here.
11:41Grandpa, boy.
11:42No, you don't.
11:44Right up against that wall.
11:59And don't even stick your head out that door.
12:01Be sure that motor pull out.
12:30We'd better take him along.
12:32Never mind him.
12:34We've got to run for it.
12:44Don't let him get away.
12:50Drop that gun.
13:01Okay.
13:15Oh, shit.
13:21seráwer
13:22H
13:22Are you there once?
13:42Get in the front seat, Moor.
13:44All right, to police headquarters, Moor, and don't spare this car.
13:59Where's Craig?
14:00He'll be along pretty soon.
14:02What's this all about, Henry?
14:03This is the Eagle.
14:06The Eagle?
14:07We want to talk to Pat Kelly, and in the presence of witnesses.
14:12Well, I don't think there's any objection to that.
14:15Donnellyn?
14:17Go with him.
14:25Why, Gene! Skipper Henry White seems like the whole carnivore.
14:28The Eagle's come over here to see me.
14:30Say, what's he doing here?
14:32What's this all about?
14:34Oh, just a little matter of business, Pat.
14:36Is this the man, Mr. Green?
14:43Yes.
14:45That's the man who sold me the invention.
14:47Well, what are you saying?
14:49That Kelly, my old friend stole my invention?
14:52I can't believe it.
14:53It's a lie. I don't know anything about it.
14:55Telly, you know you signed the bill of sale for the plans.
15:00Well, where is this bill of sale you're talking about?
15:04Show me my signature.
15:07I told you he was lying.
15:08He hasn't got anything to back it up.
15:11Oh, Skipper.
15:12Why should I steal your plans?
15:15You've always been my best friend.
15:18Pat, are you sure you're telling the truth?
15:25My father's whole future depends on what you tell now, Pat.
15:31All right.
15:33I'll tell everything I know.
15:37I did sell the plans to Green.
15:40What?
15:42There was another man who knew about it.
15:44And he, and he's been trying to cash in on it.
15:47Who was it, Kelly?
15:49Speak up, Pat.
15:49You've got to tell us.
15:57I'm signing my own death warrant.
16:02Well, I'll tell for you, Skipper.
16:05The man is...
16:07Up.
16:08Oh,
