00:00You
01:36Hello?
01:38Hello?
01:40I want to talk to Walker Wiley.
01:43Well, this is Wiley. Who's this?
01:45You know what time it is, Mr. Wiley?
01:48Yes, it's 5 o'clock in the morning.
01:49Do you wake me up to tell me what time it is?
01:51No, Mr. Wiley.
01:53I call to tell you your time is up.
01:57You're not fit to live.
01:59You'll never live to be mayor.
02:01You'll never live to see tomorrow.
02:03All right, wait a minute. Who is this?
02:06Hello?
02:23Hello?
02:26Herald dispatch?
02:28Give me the city editor.
02:32I got a story for you and get it straight.
02:36Walker Wiley will never live to be mayor.
02:40He won't live to see tomorrow.
02:44A phone call in the night, a threat to kill, and then a public announcement that the killing
02:50will take place.
02:52Is this man just a publicity seeker?
02:55Or will he be driven to kill?
02:57Will he succumb to the impulse?
02:59That's the name of our story, The Impulse.
03:03Our principal players are Mr. Robert Lansing, Miss Whitney Blake, Mr. Lance Fuller, Mr. Elisha
03:13Cook, Mr. Steve Brodie, and Mr. Conrad Naim.
03:19Before very long, one of these girls unwittingly will be carrying a deadly bomb through the crowded
03:27city.
03:28As sure as my name is Boris Karloff, one man's impulse will paralyze a great metropolis for
03:37six terrifying hours.
03:40I do hope you're not addicted to biting your nails, because this, I'm quite sure you will
03:46agree, is a thriller.
04:06I do hope you want to see Mr. Wilder.
04:27Lieutenant Rome sergeant Hannigan police special squad mr. Wiley said when you came you should go right in
04:40What are you doing mr. Wiley asking for it
04:45Who are you that's just what I mean you have a threat like this and then you have your secretary
04:49send somebody in here without any
04:50Verification if I happen to be the guy who made that threat mr. Wiley you'd be dead by now
04:55You're lieutenant Rome fortunately for you. This is sergeant Hannigan
05:01How are you sergeant lieutenant
05:04Chief pepper told me he was sending you over so I told the girl outside just to look mr. Wiley
05:09I don't want to sound like cops and robbers, but you've got to take a threat like this more seriously
05:13You can go Carolyn will finish this later. Look lieutenant
05:18Now this man didn't just call me
05:21He phone every radio station a newspaper in town gave him the same song and dance
05:25I can't take a man like that seriously. You think he's a crank a publicity seeker. Well, doesn't it look
05:30that way?
05:32Killers don't advertise in advance. Oh, no, that's theory mr. Wiley. Sometimes they do
05:38Hannigan here can tell you about sweet old mrs. Krause. Yeah
05:43She wrote letters to her relatives telling them they were gonna be poisoned. What happened they got poisoned
05:50Oh
05:52All right, boy sit down
05:55How do we begin how do you suspect anybody I haven't got the faintest idea who'd want to kill me
06:02We've come a long way up mr. Wiley
06:05Isn't there somebody whose toes you might have stepped on somebody who might nourish a grudge
06:09Not enough to kill me. No, they absolutely know I can't think of anyone
06:15All right, no suspects and you just cooperate with us
06:19We'll have two of my men at your home one in your office and one with you personally
06:23And I mean all the time 24 hours a day. We'll also keep a guard on the building

06:32A hundred appointments today some in the city some way outside
06:35All right, just keep them as long as you've got one of my men with you a moving target is
06:40harder to hit

07:46squad under lieutenant brian rome

12:02You can't mistake him. Those maintenance coveralls are white.
12:06Excuse me.
12:24What about the man himself? Any outstanding feature?
12:26Uh, he limps.
12:37Hey, Lord! Stand back!
12:40All right, take it down. Police. Special. Come on. I'll show you.
12:45Hey.
13:06Me, Lord!
13:10All right, take it down.
13:12Okay, it's the man with the light. Stop it!
13:24Get out of the way!
13:26All right, everybody back off the...
13:32I want that package you tried to put in Wiley's office.
13:35It's a bomb, isn't it?
13:38Where is it? What'd you do with it?
13:40It's a girl's bag...
13:45Elevator.
13:46Put it in some girl's bag in the elevator?
13:48When's it set for? What time?
13:51Tonight.
13:53Eleven.
13:54The girl, who was she?
13:56What did she look like?
14:09The End
14:37Nature Top
14:40According to the operator, there were 12 or 13 girls in that elevator.
14:43Out of all of the women who work here or were visiting this building this afternoon,
14:46we have to find the right one.
14:48As far as we know, the bomb is set for 11 o'clock.
14:50That means we have five hours to find the girls, so let me go do it, will you?
15:00Did you hear from the hospital about Hannigan?
15:02Yeah, they said his eyes would be all right.
15:04Lieutenant, I have station KQAY on the phone.
15:06Yeah.
15:08Yeah, hello, who is this?
15:11Mr. Stanley, this is Lieutenant Rome.
15:12Now grab a pencil and take this down.
15:15A bomb, three or four inches square, was slipped into the purse of a woman
15:18in an elevator in the Heinz building at five o'clock today.
15:21Yeah, that's right, a bomb.
15:23All women who left the building at that time should examine their pocketbooks.
15:26If such a package is found, telephone the police immediately.
15:28Put the purse out in the yard and keep everybody away from it until the police arrive.
15:32Have you got that?
15:34All right, good, and I want to repeat it every half hour.
15:36There's some girl walking around this town with a bomb, and you can save her life.
15:43George, what about that list of telephone numbers of the business offices?
15:45Just about ready.
15:47All right, let's take what we've got and get back to headquarters.
15:49There'll be a battery of men working telephones as soon as we can get there.
15:51Right.
15:53Oh, Lieutenant.
15:55That right what I just heard?
15:56Man with a bomb got chased out of here, slipped the bomb in some girl's purse,
15:59then got himself killed by a truck.
16:00That right?
16:01That's right.
16:01Brundage, you're off, Mr. Wiley.
16:02You go on back.
16:04According to his driver's license, the man's name was Harry Elser.
16:08You ever hear of him?
16:09Elser, Elser.
16:10No, doesn't mean a thing.
16:12Well, that certainly takes me off the hook, Lieutenant.
16:15Fine, fine.
16:16Oh, yeah, that's just peachy.
16:18Oh, I'm not forgetting about the girl, Lieutenant.
16:21What, you fellas will find her in plenty of time.
16:23I'm sure of that.
16:24Yeah, thank you for the faith, Mr. Wiley.
16:34Come on, knock it off.
16:36Now, Bernie here has a list of all of the business offices in the Heinz building.
16:40You get some guy in each office who can give you a list of all of the girls who work
16:43there.
16:43Find out whether their girls leave at 5 or 5.30.
16:46The girls who leave at 5.30, you can skip.
16:48Now, the girls who leave at 5, you start contacting them.
16:50If there are no phones, get their names and addresses to Bernie.
16:52He'll relay them to men in the squad cars.
16:54Also, find out what women visitors left the offices at about 5 o'clock.
16:58The woman with the bomb and her purse may be somebody who doesn't even work in the building,
17:01but was just visiting.
17:01All right, now get on the phone.
17:10Lieutenant?
17:13Yeah.
17:14What did the bomb experts tell you?
17:16Well, I say with the type of bomb you described,
17:18it didn't strong enough to knock over a building or anything,
17:21but it could kill maybe 12 or 15 people in a group.
17:24Could it contain a timing device?
17:26No, not a clock anyway.
17:27It's too small for that.
17:28But it could contain a chemical timing device.
17:31They say the OSS during the war had an incendiary pencil.
17:35They had a timing device in it that was accurate up to a half an hour.
17:38What time is this thing supposed to go?
17:4211 o'clock.
17:42I figure maybe a half hour before or a little later.
17:48Oh, with this type of bomb,
17:50I say if it gets shaken up at all,
17:52it could go at any time.
17:56It's good to know.
17:58Hey, George.
17:59George, we're not going to do any good here.
18:01Let's drive out to Elsa's and see what we can find out, all right?
18:03All right.
18:03Bernie, if anybody wants me, get me in the car.
18:11So if you're on that elevator at that time,
18:13just about 5 o'clock,
18:15this is what you must do.
18:16Do not touch your handbag.
18:19Telephone the police immediately at City 1-2000.
18:22Repeat.
18:23City 1-2000.
18:28They seem to be on the job.
18:31Seems like I should have been this afternoon.
18:34You're blaming yourself worse than usual on this one.
18:36How come?
18:37I had one of my lousy hunches.
18:41Went over to Wiley's house.
18:43I thought maybe the bomber might pull the switch and show up there.
18:47If it hadn't meant for that,
18:48I would have been to Wiley's office
18:49and some girl wouldn't be walking around with a loaded bag.
18:53What do you think we'll find at Elsa's?
18:55I don't know.
18:57I'll get some specific information on what kind of a bomber it was.
19:00We've got the whole town in an uproar.
19:02We might find out it's a false alarm.
19:03Possible.
19:04Could be he's an amateur and he bungled it
19:06so the thing won't even go off.
19:08Just don't bet on it.
19:09Those visitors are what bug me.
19:11We can miss one of them easy.
19:13Yeah.
19:14All right, so she doesn't turn on her radio,
19:15she doesn't turn on her TV.
19:18She doesn't look in her purse.
19:20So we can't help her.
19:23I'm just like that.
19:25I'm just like that, George.
19:27Some innocent girl blown to pieces
19:29and I had to have one of my lousy hunches.
19:31You take these things too personal, Brian.
19:33You know, I've noticed lately
19:34you take it on yourself for every case we work on.
19:36What's with you?
19:37Maybe I just don't live right, huh?
19:39You sure don't.
19:40It's been six years since Amy passed away.
19:42I'll bet you haven't been out with a woman in that whole time.
19:45Come off it.
19:46All right, Amy was the greatest.
19:48But life goes on, a guy's got to keep punching.
19:51Look at Jenny and me.
19:53When we lost a little girl,
19:54I thought the whole world had been kicked right out from underneath me.
19:57We had to pick up the pieces and keep going on.
20:02And now we got the new little one
20:05and everything's great again.
20:12That's so funny.
20:13Wouldn't it be great if you found this girl
20:15with a bomb in her purse
20:16and she turned out to be a big, beautiful, luscious thing
20:19and, well, the two of you decided to...
20:22Hey, wouldn't that be something, huh?
20:23George, my boy.
20:26You ought to write for TV, you know.
20:47Don't the neighbors know anything?
20:48Nothing much.
20:49The lady says he lived alone, kept pretty much to himself.
20:52What did he work at?
20:54Nothing lately.
20:55She said he was some kind of an engineer
20:56with a water and power company.
20:58He got fired about two years ago.
20:59Yeah, that's it.
21:00That's it motive.
21:01Wiley, water and power commissioner.
21:03Probably blamed him for losing his job.
21:05Mm-hmm.
21:07All right, I'll look over the house.
21:08You check the garage.
21:09All right.
21:32All right.
22:18Do you see George's wife?
22:22Yeah.
22:26I'll stop by for a few minutes.
22:30What can you say?
22:32Yeah.
22:33Yeah.
22:34Lost.
22:37She's with her mother now.
22:40Why would a guy booby trap his garage?
22:42I don't know.
22:43I don't know.
22:47I have a twisted mind like that.
22:48Maybe he was set to hold up there if we came for him.
22:53All right, what's the score?
22:56We're down to 16.
22:57Not a clue, though.
23:07Hi, Lieutenant.
23:09Nary a bomb, nary a bomb.
23:11So here's five names you can cross right off your list.
23:14I wish you could have seen some of the things I took out of those women's handbags.
23:17You wouldn't believe it.
23:20Yeah, that's perfume.
23:22Lieutenant, I think you better write me a note so my wife won't clobber me.
23:25You know, sometimes, son, you just kill me, you know that.
23:31Hey, what's the matter with him?
23:33I never saw him act that way before.
23:35George Dumont's dead.
23:36Blown up.
23:38You know how close they were.
23:45All right, what's with this first one, Kimball?
23:48She's a commercial artist.
23:50An agency in the building handles her stuff.
23:51Never mind the biography.
23:52Why can't you reach her?
23:53Sorry.
23:55No answer from her phone.
23:57No one home when I sent a car.
23:59But I got some more stuff from the agency.
24:01Ten to one, she'd be dining out with her boyfriend.
24:04That's a Robert Larrymore of Northern Lithograph.
24:06His favorite restaurants are Maz Zarin's and Angelo's.
24:10And the Seventh Heaven if he's in a dancing mood.
24:14Okay, okay.
24:15That's nice work.
24:17Now, what about Delacruz?
24:20She was a name on an appointment pad in this Rogers office for 4.30 this afternoon.
24:24The Heinz Building Super phoned it in.
24:28This Rogers is a young architect.
24:30No secretary.
24:31No secretary.
24:32And he can't be located.
24:33I'd leave Brundage in charge.
24:35From here on in, you and I better do the legwork.
24:36Okay, starting when?
24:37Starting right now.
24:38I'll take numbers one and two.
24:39You take three and four.
24:40Keep in constant touch with me on your car radio.
24:42Right.
24:43Bernie.
24:43Yeah?
24:46Listen, the experts checked over this garage.
24:50This stuff is the latest in high explosive.
24:53And don't just be careful.
24:56You be very, very careful.
24:59Okay.
25:08Okay.
25:10Did you enjoy my company?
25:14Of course, I always do.
25:15Now, Miss Kimball, for the hundredth time, may I beg for the supreme honor of your hand
25:20in marriage?
25:21Bob, you promised not to deny.
25:23Well, I can't help it.
25:24I'm crazy about you.
25:26Look, Jane, why don't we take the plunge?
25:29If it's your work you're thinking about.
25:30Excuse me, Mr. Larrimore and Miss Jane Kimball?
25:33Yes?
25:34Who are you?
25:35Police.
25:36Lieutenant Rome, special squad.
25:38I have to talk to Miss Kimball.
25:40Well, here I am.
25:43What did you want to talk to me about?
25:47Miss Kimball, is it correct that you were at the Heinz building this afternoon?
25:50You left at five o'clock?
25:51Yes, that's right.
25:53You took elevator number one on the west side.
25:54Is that correct?
25:55Yes.
25:56Yes, I did.
25:56Oh, what is this?
25:57A quiz game?
25:58Tell Miss Kimball what you want and let's get it over with.
26:01Is that the same bag you were using then?
26:03Oh, yes, as a matter of fact.
26:04Now, wait a minute.
26:05Bob, I'm sure Lieutenant Rome knows what he's doing.
26:07I wish you'd explain it.
26:10Explain, but just don't react.
26:12I want to cause a panic in the restaurant.
26:15This afternoon, a man was caught trying to plant a bomb in Walker Wiley's office.
26:18It's a little thing that's very powerful.
26:20He got away at elevator number one on the west side.
26:22On the trip down, something, a fear impulse, maybe he didn't want to be caught with it.
26:27Made him slip it into a woman's handbag.
26:30But...
26:31What are you going to do about it?
26:33Well, I'd just like to borrow your handbag for a little while.
26:37Oh, I don't know about this.
26:38Do you want to see my badge again?
26:39Bob.
26:40All right, now I'm gonna take that thing from outside the window.
26:42It'll be safer that way.
26:44I'll go through the side door.
26:45Don't do anything to attract any attention.
26:48I expect you both to cooperate.
26:56He is on the level.
26:58We could be killed at almost any moment.
27:00And we will call our hearts around now.
27:01Yes.
27:17We won't be examined.
27:18We'll be questions, please.
27:18Yeah, it doesn't matter.
28:20It's all right. It wasn't in my bag.
28:24That's a man.
28:27That's a man with...
28:29Guts.
28:30Well, it's his job. He's a cop.
28:34Could have been saving my life, you know.
28:37Maybe.
28:38But the odds are about a thousand to one against you having the bomb.
28:41What's the matter with you?
28:44You'll be nice to him when he comes back.
28:46Oh, here comes Dick Tracy.
28:48It's all yours. You found everything intact.
28:51No bomb.
28:52I know. I was watching.
28:54Oh, it's all right, Lieutenant.
28:56I wasn't disobeying orders. I was very careful not to draw attention to myself.
29:00Nice work, Rome.
29:02Maybe the Lieutenant would like a drink, Bob.
29:05How about it? You want to snort, Rome?
29:08No, thanks.
29:10Miss Kimball, you got on that elevator at the top floor.
29:14Yes.
29:15What do you want me to remember?
29:16The number of stops the elevator made and the floor as possible.
29:20Oh, I doubt it.
29:21Three or four stops.
29:24If it was faces you wanted me to remember.
29:27What about faces?
29:29Well, I have almost total recall on faces.
29:30I make a living by drawing them so...
29:32You mean you could draw every face on that elevator?
29:34Well, every one I happen to look at, yes.
29:36I could try.
29:38I try.
29:40Oh, yes.
30:06There's three.
30:09It's the man.
30:10That's Ilse.
30:12The man with the bomb?
30:14He was standing right next to me.
30:17I think of the poor girl who really has it walking around not knowing.
30:22You'll find her, won't you?
30:24Let's keep that thought.
30:26We only have an hour and a half of the outside.
30:28I'll take this, if I may.
30:29Thank you very much, Miss Kimball.
30:31Good night.
30:32Plot to the lock, Rome.
30:35Well, I wonder where the waiter is.
30:37I need another drink.
30:44Rome.
30:45Try to go Jane Kimball.
30:46Anything for Bernie?
30:47Yeah.
30:48There's two more canceled out.
30:49He's looking after number five.
30:51We ought to be getting closer, huh?
30:53Yeah, further away.
30:55I'm going after the Deliquist woman now.
31:11I told you I'd be home at nine.
31:13It's only a quarter past now.
31:15Why all the questions?
31:16What were you doing between four and six this afternoon?
31:19I was shopping with Gladys Rubin.
31:22I phoned the Rubins at 545.
31:24The sister said that Gladys had just left to meet you.
31:26Now, what were you doing between four and six?
31:28All right.
31:28If you must know, I was at the bridge club.
31:30But I didn't lose any money.
31:32You're lying.
31:33I phoned the bridge club, too.
31:35You were with Rogers, weren't you?
31:36No.
31:36You spent most of the afternoon with young Rogers,
31:38and you weren't discussing architecture.
31:39You're a filthy suspicious.
31:40If you think you can put anything like that over on me,
31:42you're out of your head.
31:42I don't have to stay here and listen to this.
31:44I'm getting out of here, and I'm not coming back.
31:46You're staying here until I get the truth.
31:52Who's there?
31:54Dolquist?
32:02Is there a miss or a Mrs. Dolquist here, first name Marjorie?
32:12I'm Mrs. Marjorie Dolquist.
32:13What do you want?
32:14Police, special squad, Lieutenant Rome.
32:17Well, what is it?
32:18There's something about my car.
32:20I haven't done anything wrong.
32:20It's nothing like that, Mrs. Dolquist.
32:22We need your help.
32:22It's urgent.
32:25Yes?
32:26Were you visiting the Heinz building this afternoon,
32:29and did you leave about 5 o'clock?
32:31What right do you have to question me?
32:34Mrs. Dolquist, this is a matter of people's lives, maybe yours.
32:38Now, when you left the building,
32:39did you take elevator number one on the west side?
32:42Of course not.
32:42I wasn't in the building or anywhere near the building.
32:46What makes you think she was there, Lieutenant?
32:49Well, her name was on an appointment pad
32:51in one of the business offices.
32:52Roger's an architect for 4 p.m.
32:55Why, that's impossible.
32:58Oh, I think I know what happened.
33:00I did make an appointment last week,
33:01but then I called and canceled it.
33:04Well, Mrs. Dolquist,
33:05we're not concerned with the appointment,
33:07just with the elevator trip.
33:11On west elevator number one at 5 o'clock today,
33:14one of the passengers was a man escaping from the police.
33:16To get rid of a bomb he was carrying,
33:18he slipped it into an unknown woman's handbag.
33:20So far, we haven't been able to locate that woman.
33:22The bomb is set to explode at 11 o'clock.
33:25A sharp movement could set it off any time.
33:29Hold it!
33:30So you were with him,
33:31so you don't care what I do with this?
33:32Shut up!
33:33Dolquist.
33:34You were with him.
33:36Dolquist, give me the bag.
33:38You were with him!
33:39Dolquist!
34:05No bomb.
34:07No bomb.
34:12It's okay, Mr. Dolquist.
34:15Yeah.
34:17It's fine.
34:18Uh-huh.
34:24Uh.
34:26Uh-huh.
34:26Uh-huh.
34:31Uh-huh.
34:33Uh-huh.а
34:42-huh.
35:07We missed out.
35:11Somehow some girl didn't get in on any of those lists.
35:15So what do we do?
35:17Sit around and wait for a girl to get blown up, I guess.
35:33Now you can call your mother.
35:35And don't say I don't look after you.
35:37You're wonderful.
35:40Hello, will you get pleasant 88866 for me, please?
35:44You know something?
35:45You look beautiful even when you're phoning.
35:50All right, thank you. I'll try again later.
35:55Mother of mine, I never know where she is.
36:03Did you get a load of those glasses? If a high wind got on them, he'd fly.
36:08What?
36:08Glasses.
36:11Glasses?
36:13That girl.
36:15Bob, I've just thought of something. I've got to call Lieutenant Rome at once.
36:18It might be terribly important.
36:22Here.
36:24Take a look at this.
36:26See if you recognize either one of those two women's faces.
36:28Both of them are on the elevator.
36:30Yeah, that's Mrs. Howser, the last one I got.
36:33The other one's one of my first lot.
36:38Special Squad.
36:41Yeah, sure, he's ready. Just a minute.
36:43Jane Kimball for you says it's urgent.
36:46Hello, Miss Kimball.
36:47Lieutenant, did you find the girl yet?
36:49No, why?
36:50Well, I just remembered someone else who was in that elevator.
36:53Can you draw her face as well as you did the other two?
36:56Better. She's an easy subject.
36:57Well, then, get drawing.
36:59Please.
36:59Are you still at that restaurant?
37:02All right, I'll be right over.
37:04Come on, Bertie.
37:11That's her, Lieutenant.
37:12Thanks.
37:16Thank you very much, Miss Kimball.
37:21Well, that's the last of Prince Valiant.
37:23I hope.
37:26Most unfunny.
37:43Mother?
37:44Where in the world have you been?
37:45I've been worried about you.
37:49Well, I was home for a few minutes at 5.30.
37:51There wasn't a sign of you.
37:52My dear, if you wouldn't talk so much, I'd be able to tell you what's happened.
37:56I'm going off with Martha Bailey for the weekend.
38:00Yes, I'll be back on Monday.
38:02Goodbye, dear.
38:03Have fun.
38:06There, now.
38:07Let's see.
38:08You have my suitcase.
38:09I have my coat and...
38:11Oh, dear.
38:12Hurry, Agnes.
38:13We have a train to catch.
38:14You see?
38:15That's typical of Janie.
38:16Such a brilliant child.
38:18But she's so untidy.
38:20She comes in, throws down her drawings, and forgets all about them.
38:24I'll just put this in her room.
38:26And then we'll be off.
38:28Agnes, will you please hurry it up?
38:31Don't be impatient, Martha.
38:33Here I am.
39:00Miss Snyder?
39:02Yes, what is it?
39:03Police, special squad, Lieutenant Rome.
39:06Miss Snyder, your mother told us where you were.
39:08When you left the Heinz building this afternoon...
39:10Well, this is that bomb business, is it?
39:11Well, you're wasting your time, Lieutenant.
39:13I heard the broadcast at six and checked in both my bags.
39:15There wasn't any bomb.
39:17And you couldn't take five minutes out to let us know?
39:20Why should I call?
39:22I mean, how should I know?
39:24There was no bomb, period.
39:30Did you say both your bags?
39:34Purse miscellaneous.
39:35Attaché case, work.
39:41Where's the phone? Booth, gas-faced, anything?
39:44A couple of booths in the corner of Almond and Wedgwood.
39:59Jane Kimball, after all.
40:01How come?
40:01Well, it's my fault.
40:04Elsa said, girl's bag.
40:05Me, I give out handbag.
40:06I'm not smart enough to figure some girl might have another bag besides her purse.
40:10She told me she had a bunch of drawings with her.
40:1820 minutes 11.
40:27Call our house numbers in there.
40:29I'll get the rest.
40:35I'll get the rest.
40:39I'll get the rest.
40:41I'll get the rest.
40:42I'll get the rest.
40:44I'll get the rest.
40:47I'll get the rest.
40:47I'll get the rest.
40:48I'll get the rest.
40:48I'll get the rest.
40:49I'll get the rest.
40:50I'll get the rest.
40:54I'll get the rest.
40:56I'll get the rest.
40:58I'll get the rest.
41:04I left the restaurant a few minutes ago.
41:08I went home at the house.
41:15Look, you figure she's taking this other bag around with her?
41:19She might. How would I know?
41:21Maybe she dropped it off at the house before she went out.
41:25All right, that's where we'll go anyway. Let's hope she's on her way there.
41:28If not, we're sunk.
41:44Let's hope she's on her way there.
41:45Now, don't go on being mad at me.
41:49Let's just forget about it, hmm? Shall we?
41:58There won't be a newscast until 11.
42:02Oh, there might be a special bulletin.
42:07Who in the world?
42:08I'll get it.
42:15I have to see Miss Kimball right away.
42:17I'll tell her you're here.
42:18Miss Kimball.
42:19Well, Lieutenant, what...
42:20When you left your agent's office this afternoon, did you take any pictures with you?
42:22Yes, the ones he didn't want.
42:24What did you carry them in?
42:25Well, my portfolio, of course.
42:27Oh, but you said handbag.
42:28I'm stupid. Where is it now, the portfolio?
42:30Oh, let me think.
42:32Um...
42:32I put it down in here.
42:34I'm sure I did.
42:37Mother must have put it away somewhere.
42:40It'll be in my room.
42:41Oh, wait a minute.
42:42Don't go in there.
42:44All right, now, you just reach inside and turn on the light.
42:47You show me where it is.
42:54There it is, on the table, over there.
42:57All right, now, you two get as far back as you can.
43:00I'm gonna take it outside.
43:37I'm gonna take it inside and turn on the door of, on please!
43:40Please be careful.
43:42Well, honey, you really don't think there's a bomb in that case of yours, do you?
43:52Okay, Brian?
43:54Did you run another blank?
44:02All right, Miss Kimball, no bomb. I'm sorry to have covered it.
44:08Lieutenant?
44:20He's gone.
44:25No. No, I won't say I told you.
44:28I'll apologize. And politely this time.
44:31Cut out the postmortems, Bob, please.
44:34I'm sorry.
44:36Look, I'm awfully tired. Why don't you just say goodnight?
44:40Now, have a heart, darling. Don't I even get a drink for the road?
44:43All right, if you must. One. You mix it yourself.
44:48Okay.
44:51You want one?
44:52No.
45:04Just think of that man, Bob.
45:06He's running around trying to save a girl's life.
45:10She doesn't even know.
45:18It's 11. Now I can hear that newscast.
45:25Despite my jesting, my lady, my love, which I bear for you, is boundless in this lowly, aching heart.
45:32Bob, you flounder.
45:33I know.
45:34Please, I want to hear the newscast.
45:36Come on, now, Jane. Let's get serious.
45:39Mr. Simmel!
45:41Oh, no. No. Not again.
45:50I just thought of something. You said that your mother moved that case?
45:53Yes, she did.
45:54Well, the bomb could have dropped out when she moved it. Now, where did you put it when you came
45:56home?
45:57Oh, I don't remember.
46:00I, uh...
46:02I think I put it in that chair.
46:05Rome, don't you think we've had about enough of this?
46:08No.
46:10No, I put it... I put it there, at that end.
46:13Under that coat.
46:27That's it.
46:30It's 11. That thing's going to go off.
46:36Come on. Move. Go.
46:39Come on. Move. Go.
46:45Come on. Move. Go.
47:07Go. 521.
47:33Go.
47:34Vicky.
47:36Yeah.
47:41Well, there's no reason to shake now.
47:42Of course not.
47:47Must have been an awful day for you.
47:49I'll sleep tonight.
47:52Well, that explosion will probably bring a crowd.
47:54I guess I'd better get out of there.
47:58Do you have to go?
47:59Well, I mean, can't you stay a while?
48:02Have a cup of coffee?
48:07What happened to your boyfriend?
48:09Hmm.
48:10It's funny how you think you know someone and suddenly you don't.
48:15I told him to keep running.
48:23Well, I...
48:25I guess my sergeant could take care of the crowd.
48:28Then you'll stay.
48:33Now, suddenly I feel a great need for a cup of coffee.
48:36Here we go.
48:38Here we go.
48:53Here we go.
48:59Here we go.
49:10Here we go.
49:11Here we go.
49:12Here we go.
