02:00Onde está o poder do Mr. Harrow Jackson.
02:02O seu arma é em sua mão para o seu destino.
02:07Use it.
02:21O morte do Harold Jackson,
02:23um conhecido em um outro link
02:25em uma rede de crimes que se chamam
02:27como o Purple Death Murders.
02:30In each case, a subtle unknown poison
02:32has been found in the bloodstream of the dead man
02:34and each victim clutched in his hand
02:36a jeweled scarab.
02:37The scarab, ironically, was the symbol
02:39of eternal life among the ancients.
02:41It is significant that all of the
02:44murdered men were actively or financially
02:46connected with a recent scientific
02:47expedition into the ancient Mayan ruins
02:50of Central America.
02:51The authorities are completely baffled
02:53and the mayor has called District Attorney
02:55Grant Gardner to appear before a meeting
02:57in the office of Police Commissioner Dryden.
03:00Hello, Mr. Mayor.
03:01And how are you, Commissioner?
03:02Hello, Grant.
03:03The Commissioner's been alibying his failure
03:05to turn up anything in these purple death murders.
03:07What are your excuses, Mr. Gardner?
03:08I don't make excuses, but I do have a definite plan.
03:11And that is?
03:11I'd rather not discuss it now.
03:13You'll have to be patient.
03:14You remember the Commissioner and I
03:16have cleaned up crime waves in this town before.
03:18Yes, but that mysterious Captain America
03:20did most of your work for you.
03:23If we could only contact him now.
03:25I feel certain that this new crime wave
03:26will bring him out of hiding to help us.
03:28Hmm, and I hope so.
03:31We're up against a new type of scientific criminal.
03:34One that we'll never find in the usual haunts of crime.
03:43I tell you, Dr. Maldor,
03:45there's a curse on everyone connected with that main expedition.
03:49Jackson's gone,
03:51and Wilson,
03:52and Evans.
03:55Well, you or I may be the next victim
03:58of the scallops travel death.
04:00My dear Professor Lyman,
04:01you're overexcited.
04:02Calm yourself.
04:04Here.
04:05Have a cigar.
04:07Thank you.
04:20Sit down, Professor.
04:21Sit down.
04:24If there is an ancient curse upon us,
04:27this scarab who invokes it
04:29must be peculiarly merciful.
04:31These men you have named
04:32are known to have withdrawn
04:34large sums of money
04:35from their banks
04:36just prior to their deaths.
04:37That's true.
04:39But I am not wealthy.
04:40Ah, but the scarab wants other things.
04:43Rare jewels,
04:44paintings,
04:45antiques.
04:46He also wants
04:48scientific secrets
04:49such as you possess.
04:51Just what do you mean?
04:53The scarab wants the plans
04:54of the thermodynamic vibration engine
04:56in which you have invented.
04:57How did you find out
04:58about my vibration?
04:59The scarab has his own methods
05:01of obtaining information.
05:08You?
05:09The scarab.
05:10Yes.
05:12I'm the scarab.
05:16It is my vengeance
05:17which is striking at all of you.
05:20It was my expedition.
05:23I uncovered the secret information
05:24and laid the plans
05:25which made it successful.
05:26and how was I rewarded?
05:28I was made the curator
05:29of an insignificant museum
05:32while the rest of you
05:33received the fame
05:34and wealth
05:34that should have come to me.
05:36You can't touch that phone.
05:40Sit down.
05:43For the short time
05:44you have to live
05:45your mind
05:46is completely
05:46under my control.
05:48You must obey
05:49my commands.
05:52You are a slave
05:54of the purple death.
06:01the fumes from this cigar.
06:07I want to know more
06:08about the vibrator.
06:09It is a device
06:11for harnessing light
06:12and sound waves
06:13into a powerful force
06:15which will disintegrate
06:17any known material.
06:18That could be used by me
06:19as a powerful weapon
06:20of destruction.
06:22Yes.
06:23Splendid.
06:25Where are the plans?
06:26At home.
06:28In the safe.
06:32Write down the combinations.
06:54You will take
06:55Professor Lyman out.
06:56You will obey
06:57your final instructions.
06:59Yes.
07:00Yes.
07:04Step this way
07:05Professor.
07:11Farewell
07:12Lyman.
07:16We will find the plans
07:18in Lyman's sail.
07:20Here are the combinations.
07:27And take these
07:28purple death bombs
07:29with you.
07:29They will be silent
07:30and effective weapons
07:31if anyone interferes.
07:33Yes sir.
07:47This is what we're after.
07:50Just a minute.
07:57Throw your gun
07:57in the corner.
08:00You too.
08:33I'll see you next time.

09:34Professor Lyman is dead. He stepped off a curb in front of a truck.
09:38Another purple death accident.
09:40Well, at least I've accounted for one of the gang.
09:42He'll find his body at Professor Lyman's house.
09:45That's all.
09:52Get me to the district attorney's office
09:56Office of the district attorney, Gail Richard speaking
09:58Let me speak to the DA
10:00Mr. Gardner isn't here now, Commissioner, but I expect to hear from him shortly
10:03Well, tell him Captain America's on the job
10:05He just killed one of the Purple Death murderers
10:08I'll tell him
10:15I'm calling Captain America
10:17Come in, Gail
10:19Commissioner Dryden just told me the news
10:20Do you need any help?
10:23I will as soon as I get back to the office
10:25Have Davis there
10:26I have an important clue for him to analyze
10:29Right, he'll be here
10:31This stuff is distilled from the Cypridium, a little known orchid
10:35Highly concentrated, it's fumes form a deadly poison which leave those purple splotches on the victim's face
10:40Careful, don't drop it
10:42Is it that dangerous?
10:43It surely is
10:44Yes, one with is enough
10:46Do Flores have this Cypridium plant?
10:49A few might
10:50It's very rare
10:51Fine
10:52We'll trick the guilty one into showing his hand
10:55Gail
10:56You and I will visit the dealers of rare flowers in the morning
11:01I'm Gail Richards from the district attorney's office
11:03Yes, Miss Richards
11:04We're trying to identify the plant from which this liquid was extracted
11:07It may help in a criminal investigation
11:15Sorry, I can't identify it
11:17Thank you
11:18Thank you
11:25No, I don't recognize it
11:29Thank you very much
11:41Can I help you, Miss?
11:43I'm from the district attorney's office
11:44I have a plant extract which we're trying to identify with a murder investigation
11:49I'm sorry, Miss
11:50I'm afraid I won't be able to help you
11:56I see you do know what the purple death bomb is
12:00You fooled me, all right
12:02But it isn't going to do you any good
12:03Get in there
12:04Don't talk
12:05Move
12:16Well
12:17This dame's wise to our setup
12:19Turn around here
12:22Tie her up
12:49Yes, speaking
12:50A girl from the district attorney's office just came in
12:53She had one of our purple death bombs and tricked me into showing my hand
12:57What do I do with her?
12:58You have plenty of the extract
12:59Use it
13:22Yes, sir
13:24I'm the district attorney
13:25Miss Richards was to meet me here
13:27I haven't seen her
13:28I'll wait outside
13:49I'll wait outside
13:51Take me to Miss Richards
13:58Get on the other side of the room
14:18This contains a purple death
14:20Drop that gun or we'll all die
14:26The brilliant action of Grant Gardner, the district attorney
14:29Has exposed the source of the purple death poison
14:32The Cypredium orchid from which it was derived will be destroyed wherever found
14:37Mr. Gardner is conducting a searching investigation into the affairs and acquaintances of Professor Lyman
14:43Latest victim of the poison
14:47I've just come from the district attorney's office
14:49He's questioning all the survivors of the main expedition
14:52He doesn't suspect us
14:54No
14:56But we have something else to worry about
15:00We are not the only ones who know the secret of Lyman's dynamic vibrator
15:04Is there another set of plans?
15:07No
15:08Worse than that
15:10There's a working model which Lyman and his assistant Gregory
15:13Constructed at Professor Doddy's laboratory
15:15The district attorney is taking some technicians here tonight to see a demonstration
15:19And learn all about it
15:20But if they learn how it works
15:22Then my secret weapon will no longer be a secret
15:25And someone will ultimately devise another machine to counteract it
15:29Therefore, the model, Annie Gregory
15:32Must be destroyed tonight
15:35That won't be difficult
15:36The directions with these plans show how to step up the power of the machine so high
15:41That it will destroy itself
15:43Along with the building and everyone in it
15:46But suppose Captain America is on the job again
15:48We know that Captain America gets information through the office of the district attorney
15:53All I need do is to give the district attorney a tip about the scanner
15:57That will send Captain America off on a false scent
16:01And that I have arranged to do
16:05Tonight
16:11This is Eddie, Mr. Gardner
16:13I've got a hot tip on those purple death killings
16:15Can you come over?
16:16I'm afraid to leave here
16:18Where are you?
16:19A 204 in the arcade rooming house
16:21All right, I'll be right over
16:25What's he got?
16:26A tip on the scarab
16:27I'll have to see him
16:29I don't like it, Grant
16:30It might be a trap
16:31Don't worry
16:32I'll be careful
16:33I'll phone Gregory that you're bringing the technical men
16:36Go ahead with the demonstration
16:37And I'll be there as soon as I've seen Eddie
16:55Well
16:56Your phone call worked, all right
16:59Here comes Captain America
17:01But I phoned the D.A.
17:03That's right
17:04And Captain America shows up as we expected
17:08Well
17:09You served your purpose, Eddie
17:25Come in
17:29Come on in
17:36Come on in
17:48Start talking
17:49Who's your boss?
17:51I...
17:51I don't know his name
17:55Stop, there's two bullets left
17:57Yes
17:58I'll hit one presently
18:01Wait, wait, I'll talk
18:03His name is Maxim
18:05Keep talking
18:06He wanted to get you out of the way
18:08They're pulling a big job at the office of a guy named Dodge
18:12I don't know what it's all about
18:13Well, I do
18:29Good evening, Mr. Gregory
18:30Good evening, Miss Richards
18:36Mr. Merritt and Mr. Norden are here to witness your demonstration of the vibrator
18:40Oh, yes
18:41The D.A. telephoned me
18:42I'm glad you came
18:44I alone know the secret of this machine
18:46And it's a heavy responsibility
18:48You come this way, please
19:02First I'll show you how the machine works and then I'll explain its construction
19:12In a few minutes will have generated sufficient power to destroy this miniature structure
19:21Now, if you'll step this way, you will see the result of the demonstration
19:24Thank you
19:29. . .
19:50. . .
19:56This machine would be a deadly weapon in the hands of the scourge.
19:59That's true.
20:00And when the plans were sown from Professor Lyman,
20:03they contained instructions for stepping up the machine's power to 100 million volts,
20:07a force that would shatter a 20-story building like an eggshell.
20:11Gregory's right, gentlemen.
20:15We have directions here, and we'll give you a demonstration
20:18of what this machine can do to this building.
20:20Now, the first one who starts anything gets it.
20:25Set the control panel.
20:27You can't get away with this.
20:29Now, get into the other room. All of you.
20:42Before we wreck this building, I want all of Professor Dodge's papers.
20:45Open that vault.
20:47I said open that vault.
21:04Get him.
21:24Get in the vault, all of you.
21:27This is murder.
21:28That's right.
21:29Wholesale murder.
21:44All set.
21:45Start it up.
21:46I'll get the car ready for our getaway.
21:48Now, don't leave until you're sure the machine is running okay.
21:50Right.
21:51If that machine builds up to its full power,
21:53this building will collapse in a cloud of dust.
21:56What?
22:09I'll get it.
22:13I'll get it.
22:13I'll get it.
22:15I'll get it.
22:16I'll get it.
22:18I'll get it.
22:18I'll get it.
22:18I'll get it.
22:19I'll get it.
22:21I'll get it.
22:36Hold it.
22:38Captain America.
22:42What's happening in there?
22:48Get over there.
22:51Get over there.
23:28Get over there.
24:17Do any of you know the combination?
24:18Yes.
24:20Set point at zero.
24:23Left to 17.
24:26Right to 61.
24:33Get the vibrator.
24:34If he doesn't shut off, the building will collapse.
24:36Get out.
24:37I'll try to stop.
24:39I'll try to get back.
25:00bilang, go, go, go, go.
25:00Go, go, go.
25:01I'll get it.
25:02Go, go.
25:17Obrigado por assistir.
