02:41problem
02:49so
02:59so
03:23I'm with you.
03:26Is he gone?
03:29Her neck?
03:33I knew she must be.
03:34I heard it crack.
03:36She asked for it.
03:38You knew?
03:41All the time.
03:43It started a week after you were married.
03:47His name's Sid.
03:50He used to drive in almost every weeknight from the city.
03:53She met him at the Carefree.
03:57It's a little beer joint out on the highway.
04:00Why didn't you tell me?
04:02Doris was your wife.
04:03Wouldn't I look great?
04:14I'll get it.
04:14I know all the answers.
04:24Let me talk to your sister, Larry.
04:27Uh, Helen?
04:29She's got a twin, maybe?
04:31Oh, she hasn't come home yet from the beach, Gordon.
04:34Okay.
04:35Well, tell her I'm on my way over.
04:37And tell her to blitz it, will you?
04:38I don't want to be late for the first show.
04:40Yeah.
04:40I said she's not home, Gordon.
04:42So I'll wait for her.
04:44No.
04:45Not here.
04:47What's the matter?
04:47Suddenly I got the pox or something?
04:49No, I just thought you'd shorten connections if you picked her up at the beach.
04:53I mean, what do you want to cool your heels around the house for?
04:55Helen's liable not to be home for hours yet.
04:58You better step closer to the telephone, fella.
05:00I'm not getting through to you.
05:01Helen expects me to call for her.
05:04Well, yeah, sure.
05:05You know how Helen is about the time.
05:07I mean, especially when she's hanging around the beach.
05:11I mean, she might not come home at all if it didn't get dark every night.
05:16I just thought you'd make better time if you picked her up at the beach.
05:19Okay, okay.
05:20So you don't have to draw me a picture.
05:26Helen's latest junior jerk.
05:30If he does what I told him, we'll have a couple hours at least.
05:33What's the use?
05:34I might go phone the police and get it over with.
05:36No, no, I tell you.
05:37Don't make it any worse than it is, kid.
05:38I can't.
05:39I won't let you.
05:40She got what she deserved, Jim.
05:42Jim, she's not with your life.
05:43They'll put you in the chair for...
05:45Jim.
05:46Jim, you're not going to call the police.
05:53Listen, Jim.
05:54Now, listen, you've got to pull yourself together.
05:57If we could just get her out of here.
06:01Yeah.
06:04I don't care where it happened, but it didn't happen here.
06:06It happened someplace else.
06:08You were in the city.
06:09You are in the city now.
06:10Do you get me?
06:11Do you understand me, Jim?
06:13Now, listen.
06:14Listen, nobody expected you down here today, so you weren't here.
06:19Now, wait a minute.
06:21Did anybody see you in the depot or on the train?
06:23Anybody that knows you by sight?
06:24I don't think so.
06:26Well, how'd you get from the depot?
06:27Cab?
06:28No, I walked.
06:29Good.
06:31Anybody see you on the way to the house?
06:33How do I know?
06:34Put yourself together now.
06:35Think.
06:35I didn't see anybody I knew.
06:37No, of course not.
06:37The streets are dead.
06:38Everybody's at the beach.
06:39Larry, it's no use.
06:41The red cab's at the station.
06:43Some of them might know me by sight.
06:44But you've always come down on a Friday night before, never on a Thursday.
06:47What makes you think they'll remember you out of that whole mob of commuters?
06:51I don't know, Larry.
06:52All right.
06:53Suppose one of them did see you.
06:54In a week or so, when the questions start flying, he'll have a lot of trouble remembering
06:57just which day it was he saw you on.
07:01You've got to take a chance, Jen.
07:02What have you got to lose?
07:05Larry, I just remembered my commutation ticket.
07:09Oh, yeah.
07:10I forgot about that.
07:12It's got that date punched on it.
07:15We can't get around it.
07:16No, wait a minute.
07:18Just today, something had never happened before.
07:20My mind was haywire, I guess, on account of what I'd found out about Doris.
07:24Anyway, when I got to the station, I found I didn't have my commutation ticket with me.
07:28I'd left it at the office.
07:30So I had to buy an ordinary ticket to get down here.
07:34Oh, it's a pushover, Jim.
07:36It'd be a crime enough to take advantage of a break like that.
07:40Now, listen, you're going to come down tomorrow, just the same as usual.
07:44Only you're going to be sure one of those red caps remembers you.
07:46Um, lose something, uh, stumble and get helped.
07:51Anything but make an impression.
07:53Oh, wait a minute.
07:54It was a round-trip ticket, I hope.
07:56I was so steamed up, I didn't notice.
08:01Oh, we're in, Jim.
08:02This will get you back to the city unnoticed.
08:05Your unpunched commutation ticket will be your alibi.
08:09Now, do you know anyone you can kill an evening with?
08:12Or better still, two or three friends?
08:14Frank Clark?
08:15He usually rolls up a gang of stay-outs as he goes along.
08:18Good, good.
08:20Bend an elbow, get a little lit.
08:22Stay out as late as you can manage.
08:24And then before you leave, where they can all hear you, call me long-distance collect.
08:29This way we'll have a record of it with a telephone company.
08:33Would it look suspicious by phoning you for no reason?
08:35The booze made you sentimental.
08:36You wanted to talk to Doris.
08:38If I've got everything under control by then, I'll give you the bad news.
08:41You break down in front of your friends.
08:43You got it?
08:44Yes.
08:45Well, now, until I give you a cue, keep a soft pedal.
08:49Not a worry in the world, see?
08:53Now, you've got your job.
08:56Mine's upstairs.
08:58Larry, what are you going to do with her?
08:59Get rid of her, get her out of here someplace.
09:02But how?
09:03Where?
09:05I don't know.
09:07I just know I don't want an audience.
09:09Just darkness and a little time.
09:12If I suddenly get cold feet,
09:15I'll remember how you took care of me after Mom and Dad died.
09:20You've only got ten minutes to catch that train.
09:34All clear.
09:36Come on, it's going to be drifting back in a minute.
09:38I can't let you do this, Larry.
09:39Don't argue, move.
09:40No, if you get caught, they'll hang it on you.
09:43Do you want to go to the electric chair?
09:44Well, let me do it my way.
09:55Helen's coming.
09:56Gordon must have missed her at the beach.
09:58You've only got a few minutes to make that train.
10:00I'll catch the 740.
10:01No, no, no.
10:02The longer you're out of the city, the riskier it gets.
10:04You've already got three hours you can't account for.
10:07I'll get her to go back to the beach for Gordon.
10:13Hi, kid.
10:14How was the surf today?
10:16Who is that at the door just now?
10:17Me.
10:18I thought I saw someone else.
10:20You must have been getting too much sun.
10:24Do you mind?
10:25Gordon phoned.
10:25He said he was going to pick you up down there.
10:27Yes, I know.
10:28He found me.
10:29He also told me whose idea it was.
10:31Did you think I'd go to the movies with that eager beaver wearing this?
10:34Oh, I guess I forgot you'd want to change first.
10:37Where is he?
10:38Oh, he's coming.
10:39If he can ever get that stupid car of his started again.
10:45I thought you were going to fix this.
11:00Let me put it away.
11:01Why should you?
11:03Can't a guy lend a hand?
11:04Starting sort of late, aren't you?
11:07Thanks.
11:12I've got to get rid of this stupid jacket.
11:19Say, is Dorothy on?
11:20Uh, no.
11:21No.
11:22Oh, crazy.
11:22Then I could swipe some of my new perfume.
11:24Mm-hmm.
11:32What's the matter now?
11:33I feel playful.
11:35Playoff.
11:36Your mother's been raising Cain about the way you've been helping yourself to her things.
11:39She said she wants it to stop.
11:41I don't believe it.
11:42She wouldn't tell you.
11:43She'd tell me.
11:44What's it got to do with you anyway?
11:47See what I told you?
11:49So you locked it and took the key.
11:52Well, if you knew it was already locked, why did you break your neck to keep me out?
11:56Well, I, uh, I didn't want you to know.
11:59It's, it's, it's the devil when there's trouble between the women and the family.
12:04Maybe I'm crazy, but I've got the creepiest feeling something's going on around here today.
12:09Suddenly everything's different.
12:11What was the idea of freezing Gordon out when he tried to call for me today?
12:15Well, you, uh, you weren't here.
12:17I, I just wanted to help him find you.
12:30Hey, watch, dog.
12:32Guess what?
12:33What?
12:34Doris forgot she couldn't lock the bathroom door from her side.
12:37Mm-hmm.
13:08Mm-hmm.
13:41Mm-hmm.
13:47Larry, will you answer the door?
13:52Please?
13:59Hi, honey.
14:03It's open.
14:05It's open.
14:11Must you always play telegraph with the doorbell, Gordon?
14:14So hire a doorman.
14:17Put on your shock-frock doll,
14:19and don't forget to splash on some of Doris's glamour goo.
14:21Let's go.
14:24Let's go.
14:28Let's go.
14:38Let's go.
15:02Put a nickel in it, will you, Helen?
15:32Helen!
20:32I am a friend.
20:33After a moment Dad died in.
21:0300,000,000 all the time.
21:21Hello.
21:22Mrs. Weeks, please.
21:24Just a minute.
21:34Sorry, there was some noise. Who'd you want?
21:36Mrs. Weeks.
21:38She's not here.
21:40Oh. Okay.
21:42But she left a message for anyone that did call.
21:44What is it?
21:46How do I know you're the right party?
21:49Who is this?
21:50Helen's boyfriend, Gordon.
21:52How come you're there alone?
21:54Well, I'm not.
21:56Helen's upstairs dressing, and she couldn't come to the phone.
22:00She told me to give the message.
22:02What is it?
22:03This is the right party.
22:07Well, Mrs. Weeks was called out this afternoon.
22:10Some people showed up from the city, and she couldn't get away from them.
22:14She said a few calls to tell you she was having dinner at the Paradise Club.
22:19Do you know where that is?
22:20I think so. It's up in the Palisades, isn't it?
22:24Yeah, yeah, that's right.
22:26There's a sign out in front that lights up the road. You can't miss it.
22:29Oh, it should be there then, huh?
22:30Yeah, yeah.
22:31These people she is with, that she's with, are just passing through.
22:37They're not staying.
22:40She said she'd be free about 8.30.
22:45They can't bring her back, so she said maybe you could meet her in the car out there.
22:51Hello?
22:54Did you hear me?
22:55Yeah, I heard you.
22:56Thanks.
22:57Wait.
22:59Is there more?
23:00Yeah, uh, what should I tell her if, uh, if she calls?
23:06Tell her I'll be there.
23:09Oh, uh, I almost forgot.
23:10Uh, she, uh...
23:14She wants you to park in the, uh...
23:17Right by the entrance of the parking lot.
23:19Uh, she'll be out as quick as she can.
23:22Well, now, let me see if I got the message tray, son.
23:26The Paradise Club at 8.30.
23:28Absolutely.
23:30Just as I told you.
23:31Fine.
23:32Thanks a lot.
23:35It was your party, mister.
23:39You're gonna pay for it, not Jim.
23:52Turn off the light, Carl.
23:54It attracts the buck.
24:05Let me see if I got the message tray, son.
24:07At the Paradise Club at 8.30.
24:11Absolutely.
24:12Just as I told you.
24:25Easy, easy.
24:27Take it easy.
24:37No.
24:37No, I'm not.
24:40No.
24:48No.
24:51No, no.
25:55Is this the Sorokin cleaners?
25:57Yes.
25:58How late are you open tonight?
26:00We were already closed.
26:01We called for your cleaning first thing in the morning.
26:03What address?
26:04Suppose I bring it on myself tonight.
26:06Better in the morning.
26:08Well, look, there won't be anybody here in the morning.
26:11This has to be attended to.
26:12What's the big problem if I drop it down now?
26:15Okay.
26:16You ring the bell.
26:17Thanks a million.
26:18I appreciate it.
26:46I appreciate it.
26:48I appreciate it.
27:43I appreciate it.
27:47I appreciate it.

31:06I'm going to suddenly get Kofi out.
31:08I'll remember how you took care of me after Mom and Dad died.
35:14Thanks for the lift.
35:14I'll get out here.
35:15Thought you wanted to go to the Paradise Club.
35:18Just run out here.
35:18Just run out there, Ben.
35:19I...
35:20I...
35:21I don't want to get there before...
35:23I'm not supposed to get there before 8.30.
35:30Hey, what's the idea?
35:31I said I wanted to get out here.
35:32Now, who's stopping you?
35:34Well, you can at least slow down.
35:38It's all right with me, kid.
35:40It makes no difference to me one way or the other.
35:43I was gonna take it away from you.
36:14I was gonna need to take it away from you.
36:15You better live without alot of all.
36:17I handed you a影片, ever
36:18Don't follow me.
36:18Oh, see.
36:24I'll go ahead and take it away from what's done.
36:24Well, don't microw leaked.
36:28So, this is other Alan's way too short.
36:28Hey, I shut up, man.
42:03My car broke down up the road.
42:04I, uh, I gotta take this to Sarukians.
42:06And take me to 115 beachfront, will you?
42:08And listen, uh, step on it.
42:10I'm expecting an important phone call.
42:54Jim, I took the next train, Jim, I took the next train, I took the next train back.
42:56Why?
42:57Why?
42:57Why?
42:57Why?
42:57Why?
42:57Because I came to my senses by the time I got there.
43:00I couldn't go through with it, Larry.
43:02Let you shoulder the blame that way.
43:03Blame?
43:04Who's shouldering any blame?
43:06Did you look in a room?
43:08Well, did you?
43:10The door's locked?
43:12I've been through all this?
43:14I've been through all this for nothing, you haven't called the cops or anything, have you?
43:18No, I was waiting for you to come back.
43:20Oh, you had me worried.
43:23I thought you'd walk over to the station house with me.
43:25I'm not long on the kind of courage it'll take to make a confession.
43:29Well, that's just dandy, because you're gonna keep your mouth shut.
43:32Oh, no, Larry.
43:33Now, look, I don't want to argue.
43:34There won't be any argument, just give me the key to her room, the police will want to
43:37get in there.
43:38Well, Adam, they won't find a thing.
43:40I got rid of her.
43:41What?
43:42She's in the back seat of his car right now, headed for the city.
43:48Man, oh man, I'd like to be there when he finds her.
43:51See the expression on his crummy face.
43:56What's the matter, didn't you think he could do it?
43:58How?
43:59She went out of here all rolled up in a rug.
44:02I got the idea when he phoned her.
44:04I told him to meet her at the Paradise Club.
44:08He met her, all right, but he never knew it.
44:14I'm glad I waited for you.
44:16So am I.
44:16Why?
44:18Because on our way to the station, you can tell me exactly what happened.
44:22Then I can tell them I did it.
44:25You can't.
44:27You can't.
44:28She wasn't with your life, Jim.
44:30She was a lousy no-
44:31That's enough, Larry.
44:33This afternoon, when I ran out of here, I was too scared to think.
44:36But I've come to my senses.
44:40Nothing, nothing in this world can ever justify taking a life.
44:43You knew that.
44:44I did too.
44:46We just got carried away, that's all.
44:48Carried away?
44:49There's no use arguing about it.
44:50My mind's made up.
44:51If you won't go with me, I'll go alone.
45:15Remember, I did it, I got rid of her.
45:16But shut up.
45:27I'm looking for a James Weeks.
45:29I'm Jim Weeks.
45:31Sergeant Crowe, can we talk inside?
45:45Do you recognize this, Mr. Weeks?
45:50Yes, it belonged to my wife, Doris.
45:53Mm-hmm.
45:54We thought so.
45:55It was the only thing that we had to go by.
45:58The only thing?
45:59Yes, you see, she's pretty badly hurt.
46:05She's dead.
46:08Yes, she is.
46:10I didn't want to tell you so suddenly, but...
46:14Well, you might as well know.
46:16There was a car smash-up about an hour ago.
46:19The guy driving was probably drunk.
46:22He was going to Lee Seventy when we let out after him.
46:25He lost control, went over an embankment,
46:28and the car caught on fire.
46:30We tried to get him out, but...
46:33But she was dead.
46:36That's right, son.
46:38She was already dead when we got him out.
46:41The guy, too.
46:44I'm sorry to have to bring you this kind of news, Mr. Weeks.
46:48They shook us up, too.
46:52When you're feeling more up to it,
46:53you can stop by the station house and make the arrangements.
46:59Well, good night.
47:12Jim.
47:15Jim.
47:17No, Larry.
47:20You coming?
47:45You coming?
