00:00:02The End
00:00:34The End
00:01:03The End
00:01:39How long will it take to fix it?
00:01:41Well, like I told you, the bearing burned out and cracked the block.
00:01:44How long will it take?
00:01:46Got to send to Los Angeles for a new block.
00:01:48Take about a week.
00:01:54About a week, huh?
00:01:55Uh-huh.
00:02:01What did you give me for it?
00:02:03Well, for the burnt bearing, about $280.
00:02:06You kidding?
00:02:07Uh-uh.
00:02:08I paid 80 bucks for the tires alone. They're practically new.
00:02:11Oh, so you did.
00:02:13Okay, tell you what I'll do. I'll give you $380 for the whole shebang and throw in the towing charge.
00:02:18$400.
00:02:19Uh-uh. $380.
00:02:22$400.
00:02:25Got the pink slip?
00:02:27Yeah.
00:02:29Okay, $400.
00:02:33All right, did there be anything else?
00:02:35Nope.
00:02:35Get you the dough.
00:02:47It keeps heating up.
00:02:50Lady, you think you've got trouble?
00:02:52This thing won't even run.
00:02:54Oh, I'm sorry. I thought you were the mechanic.
00:02:56Well, I'll speak to my tailor about that when I get back in town.
00:02:59Here's your man now.
00:03:12Your fan valve is broken.
00:03:13Would that make it boil?
00:03:15Yes, ma'am.
00:03:16Especially if you've been driving pretty fast.
00:03:19Well, tell me, do you have some maps of California or Arizona?
00:03:22Sorry, miss. We have California, but nothing east of here.
00:03:26Try the gas station next door.
00:03:28Uh, excuse me, miss, but I've got some maps that you're welcome to.
00:03:43Here you are, miss.
00:03:45A complete file. All the western states. I won't need them anymore.
00:03:47That's very kind of you.
00:03:49Not at all.
00:03:52Hey, guys, son.
00:03:53$400.
00:03:56All right.
00:03:57Say, uh, tell me something.
00:03:59Where do the eastbound buses stop going through here?
00:04:01Uh, it's Pryson's Restaurant next to the filling station.
00:04:04There's one due about 9 o'clock.
00:04:07How's the food in there?
00:04:08Good.
00:04:09All right, thanks. I'll, uh, I'll pick up my gear later, huh?
00:04:14Thanks.
00:04:16Oh, uh, have a nice trip, miss.
00:04:18See you later.
00:04:22Oh, uh, Ir...
00:04:33Oh.
00:04:34Oh, uh, uh, it's ì•Œê³ some.
00:04:42There's a green.
00:04:42Oh.
00:04:43Oh, oh.
00:04:43Oh, uh, uh, uh.
00:04:44Oh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh.
00:04:47Joey's上.
00:04:47Oh, uh.
00:04:50Oh, uh.
00:04:52How are you?
00:04:53Do you mind if I join you?
00:04:55No, no, not at all. Sit down, won't you?
00:05:00There's a little conspicuous coming in about.
00:05:03Oh, I don't mind them. This is a truck stop.
00:05:07Truck drivers aren't usually as pretty as you.
00:05:10Please keep talking to me.
00:05:11I don't want these people to think I came in here to pick you up.
00:05:15Well, they're just thinking how lucky I am to have such a pretty girl.
00:05:21We're all out of ham.
00:05:25You were saying?
00:05:28I think it would be nice if we introduced ourselves.
00:05:31My name is Ann Nicholson.
00:05:33How do you do? I'm John Emmett.
00:05:35How do you do, Mr. Emmett?
00:05:37I came to you because I heard you say you were traveling east.
00:05:40I know your car broke down and you were going to take a bus.
00:05:43That's right.
00:05:44Well, I'm going that way too.
00:05:46Santa Fe, New Mexico. Is that on your way?
00:05:50Ah, yes. Yes, it is.
00:05:53You'd like a traveling companion, is that it?
00:05:56Well, not exactly, Mr. Emmett.
00:05:58I want someone to help me drive.
00:06:00You see, it's of great importance that I get to Santa Fe as soon as possible.
00:06:04It occurred to me that if I drove by day and I had somebody who could drive by night, I'd
00:06:09get there much faster.
00:06:11Non-stop all the way?
00:06:12That's right.
00:06:14I know how you must feel of being approached by a perfect stranger.
00:06:19But if you would like to join me, it would be strictly business.
00:06:24You make it sound pretty dull.
00:06:27But I think I'll accept your offer, Miss Nicholson.
00:06:30Mrs. Nicholson.
00:06:32Mrs. Nicholson.
00:06:34I knew it.
00:06:35It just had to be.
00:06:36But it's a deal, Mrs. Nicholson.
00:06:47Say, you really are in a hurry, aren't you?
00:06:51I told you that was part of the bargain.
00:06:54Yeah.
00:06:55All right, I was only kidding.
00:06:56Tell me, are there any rivers or lakes near Santa Fe?
00:07:01I really couldn't say.
00:07:02I've never been here before.
00:07:04Why?
00:07:05Well, I got a month's vacation.
00:07:07I'm going back to Texas to see my folks.
00:07:09And I thought maybe that going and coming, I'd get in a little fishing.
00:07:13Maybe hunting.
00:07:14It's coincidence.
00:07:17You might say I'm going hunting.
00:07:20Yeah?
00:07:21In Santa Fe?
00:07:22Hey, what's in season this time of year?
00:07:24Just a figure of speech, Mr. Emmett.
00:07:27I'm hunting for a man.
00:07:30Oh.
00:07:32Well, I guess maybe men are always in season, huh?
00:07:34Mr. Emmett, don't you think you ought to get some rest?
00:07:37You're going to be driving all night.
00:07:41Maybe you're right.
00:08:06Well, what's the matter? Something wrong?
00:08:08Oh, I'm sorry. It's just that I'm getting a little tired.
00:08:12Would you mind taking over now?
00:08:14No, not at all.
00:08:24I'm getting a little headache.
00:08:26I'm glad you decided to join me.
00:08:29Maybe I can get some sleep.
00:08:31All right.
00:08:32Here.
00:08:36You can use that for a pillow.
00:08:38Okay.
00:08:59Yes, sir. What'll it be?
00:09:00Fill her up, will you?
00:09:05Anything the matter?
00:09:06No, no, nothing. Just getting some gas.
00:09:08Oh.
00:09:09What time is it?
00:09:10It's about midnight.
00:09:12Say, I think I'll get a cup of coffee. Could I get you one?
00:09:16That'd be wonderful. Thanks.
00:09:17How about a donut?
00:09:18Fine.
00:09:20Look, here. You better take this.
00:09:23Hey, you better put that away. That's quite a roll of money.
00:09:26Well, you need it for gas and coffee.
00:09:29No, thanks. Forget it. This one's on me. You can get it next time.
00:09:33You'd better look under the hood.
00:10:02Hello.
00:10:04You talking to me?
00:10:05Yes, I was.
00:10:07Coffee, please.
00:10:09You, uh, push right along, don't you?
00:10:12I beg your pardon?
00:10:14In the car. You're a fast driver.
00:10:16Oh, uh, not ordinarily. I, uh... Why, you been following me?
00:10:21Ever since Jepson.
00:10:25I've, uh...
00:10:26I've, uh...
00:10:26Been waiting for a chance to talk to you, uh, alone.
00:10:31What about?
00:10:33Well, the booth would be a little more private. Do you mind?
00:10:37No, not at all.
00:10:51My name is Helen Bethke.
00:10:54Well, go on. Take a look.
00:10:58So, you're a registered nurse.
00:11:00Yes.
00:11:01And Mrs. Nicholson is my patient.
00:11:03Your patient?
00:11:04What's the matter with her?
00:11:06Anything else, sir?
00:11:07Uh, you want something, Dean?
00:11:09No, thank you.
00:11:10No, thanks.
00:11:11Oh, it's nothing too serious.
00:11:12She's had a nervous breakdown, and she's presently under treatment.
00:11:15Well, she's making excellent progress.
00:11:18There's always a polite way of saying that the lady's a little, uh...
00:11:21Oh, no, no. She's perfectly harmless, and almost well now.
00:11:25But her doctor thinks she needs to get off by herself, be a little bit independent.
00:11:29So when she ran away today, he wanted me to follow her, but only to see that she kept out
00:11:33of trouble.
00:11:34That's why I've taken the precaution of approaching you.
00:11:37Hmm.
00:11:38I suppose, uh, now you want to check on my credentials, huh?
00:11:42Well, I do have to make sure that a traveling companion is reliable, shall we say, uh, can be trusted.
00:11:49And suppose I don't, uh, don't pass your little test.
00:11:53Well, let's say if you do pass, you simply continue on as you have.
00:11:57You see, the garage man told me you needed a ride.
00:12:02I'll tell you what let's do, huh?
00:12:03You get in the car and ride with Mrs. Nicholson, and I'll, uh, drive your car and meet you in
00:12:07Santa Fe.
00:12:07Now, how's that?
00:12:08Santa Fe, is it?
00:12:10Yeah.
00:12:12Well, I've told you why I can't go with her.
00:12:14The doctor thinks she should be on her own.
00:12:16You won't regret this, Mr. Emmett.
00:12:18Oh, by the way, don't insist on paying for things.
00:12:20You see, the widow Nicholson is a very wealthy woman.
00:12:23The executor of her husband's estate will be glad to pay you for your help.
00:12:27Well, maybe we can talk about that later, huh?
00:12:29Fine. Then you call me in Santa Fe.
00:12:32I'll go on ahead and make sure someone takes care of her after that.
00:12:35Whereabouts in Santa Fe?
00:12:38Well, that is a thought, isn't it?
00:12:41Well, here, let me see.
00:12:43Here we are, Santa Fe, Estes Hotel.
00:12:50You can reach me there.
00:13:11He's going to do it, doctor.
00:13:13I thought you could persuade him better than I.
00:13:15Did you find out where she's going?
00:13:16Yes. Santa Fe.
00:13:18Good for you.
00:13:36Mrs. Nicholson, I have your coffee and doughnut here.
00:13:41What took you so long?
00:13:43Oh, I stopped for a hamburger.
00:13:45That's $3.90 you owe me.
00:13:51Here, $5.
00:13:54$3.90 for $5.
00:13:58Thanks a lot.
00:14:06What did Miss Bethke tell you about me?
00:14:08You were supposed to be asleep.
00:14:10Did she tell you I was sick or mentally incompetent or something like that?
00:14:13No, no, no.
00:14:14She just asked me to be nice to you and see that you get to Santa Fe.
00:14:17That's very sweet of her.
00:14:19Well, I've changed my mind, Mr. Emmett.
00:14:21I don't think I'll need your help anymore.
00:14:23Well, this is a fine time for you to decide that.
00:14:28I want you to get out of the car.
00:14:30Right now.
00:14:31What?
00:14:32Right out here in the middle of nowhere?
00:14:33Look, Mrs. Nicholson, if you think you're going to dump me like that,
00:14:36why, maybe you are out of your mind.
00:14:37Well, maybe this will shorten the distance to the next town.
00:14:40Yeah, well, maybe you better just put that back like I told you once before.
00:14:43Say, what's going on here anyway?
00:14:44First this Miss Bethke and now you.
00:14:46Did she offer you money?
00:14:47Yeah, yeah, she did.
00:14:48But her deal was COD, Santa Fe, with your executive pay on the freight.
00:14:52Look, Mrs. Nicholson, you and I made a bargain.
00:14:53I have every intention of keeping it.
00:14:55And I didn't make any kind of a deal with your Miss Bethke.
00:14:57I just told her that I'd call her when we got to Santa Fe.
00:15:01I'm sorry.
00:15:03I'm afraid I misjudged you.
00:15:05That's all right.
00:15:06I guess I can't blame you.
00:15:08Now, how about it?
00:15:13All right.
00:15:14Get going.
00:15:43What's that?
00:15:44That's the law.
00:15:45Those boys are up early.
00:15:56Well, they must have a speed trap in that time we just passed through.
00:16:04What's the matter, Sheriff?
00:16:05You fellows hunting jack rabbits?
00:16:06Never mind about that.
00:16:07Get out of there, both of you.
00:16:14Now, who are you?
00:16:16My name's Emmett.
00:16:18John Emmett.
00:16:18Your name Nicholson?
00:16:20Yes, it is.
00:16:21We got a call from the Los Angeles police to pick up a Mrs. Nicholson in a tan convertible.
00:16:25The description checks.
00:16:27So does the license.
00:16:28I don't understand what...
00:16:30Take a look in the car, bud.
00:16:31Right.
00:16:32Have you any idea what this is all about?
00:16:34No, I haven't.
00:16:35I...
00:16:36What's she wanted for, officer?
00:16:38She's wanted for questioning in Los Angeles about a murder.
00:16:41Murder?
00:16:42No weapons, Sheriff.
00:16:44All right.
00:16:45Get back in the car, both of you.
00:16:46You better drive, mister.
00:16:48Turn around and head back to town slow.
00:16:51Yeah.
00:16:52A real sweet, innocent girl.
00:16:54I don't understand what they're talking about.
00:16:55Bud?
00:16:56Put him in.
00:16:58Oh, please.
00:16:59There must be some mistake.
00:17:00There is no mistake, Mrs. Nicholson.
00:17:03But I...
00:17:13Why you...
00:17:14But I didn't do anything.
00:17:15I didn't kill anybody.
00:17:17It must be some mistake.
00:17:17All right.
00:17:17Now, take it easy on the girl.
00:17:18I didn't kill anybody.
00:17:19I didn't...
00:17:19Mrs. Nicholson, you gotta stop it now.
00:17:21Here.
00:17:23Maybe this will hold you.
00:17:27You all right, Bud?
00:17:29Yeah, I guess so.
00:17:31Now, get back to the car.
00:17:32Look, you do that again, so help me.
00:17:34I'll belt you one.
00:17:40All right.
00:17:40Come on.
00:17:41Let's get out of here.
00:17:45Here.
00:17:46Hold it.
00:17:50All right.
00:17:56Here.
00:17:57You keep these keys.
00:18:10I don't know anything they're talking about.
00:18:41Come on.
00:18:42Get out.
00:18:43Come on.
00:18:51Let's go.
00:18:55Good-bye.
00:18:57Good-bye.
00:19:09We're getting ready for you, the machine...
00:19:12So, we're really just kind of talking about the machine.
00:19:18All right, now, Mrs. Nicholson, just fill me in.
00:19:21I don't understand.
00:19:23You know, this chain gang routine wasn't part of the bargain.
00:19:26Country cops don't just use their guns on people.
00:19:28Unless they got a good reason.
00:19:29The man said questioning about a murder.
00:19:31I don't understand. I don't know what they've been talking about.
00:19:33Mrs. Nicholson, I'm not going to ask you again.
00:19:36Now fill me in.
00:19:38You know, there's something awful funny about all this.
00:19:40You in such a hurry, then the nurse, now the police.
00:19:43They're looking for you, and they're not kidding.
00:19:45Well, I know it sounds strange, but...
00:19:46Don't blame me for not believing me, but I don't know anything about a murder.
00:19:49Well, what do you know?
00:20:01You know, maybe we should just give ourselves up.
00:20:04No.
00:20:06No, you don't have to come with me.
00:20:08But I must get to Santa Fe.
00:20:10Santa Fe.
00:20:11Even without these, you wouldn't have a chance.
00:20:13They probably got a roadblock at every intersection.
00:20:16I don't know how lucky we are to be alive.
00:20:19Yes, I know.
00:20:21You see, Berlin was my home, Derek.
00:20:24Are you German?
00:20:26Well, then how come you don't have an accent?
00:20:28Now I want the truth!
00:20:30My family brought me here when I was very young.
00:20:33But my father still had holdings in Germany.
00:20:36We went back there to dispose of them.
00:20:38The war broke out.
00:20:40We were caught.
00:20:42That's the truth.
00:20:44Well, where's your family now?
00:20:48I'm the only member of my family still alive.
00:20:52I've kept things to myself for so long.
00:20:55I have to tell someone.
00:21:04All right.
00:21:06Tell me about it.
00:21:06When did it start?
00:21:11Well, nearly three months ago, I got wood that my brother Kurt was still alive.
00:21:18He was being held prisoner in East Germany.
00:21:22I flew to Berlin to see if I could help him.
00:21:27I went to the American authorities and they did everything they could for me.
00:21:31But it was through the underground that I made contact.
00:21:35They sent me a message.
00:21:37They told me to go to a certain apartment building, take an apartment, stay close to it.
00:21:43Not to talk to anyone.
00:21:46A week passed.
00:21:48I don't think I slept an hour, not wanting to miss a messenger if one got through to me.
00:21:52But nothing happened.
00:21:54There was nothing I could do.
00:21:57I had to wait.
00:21:59Because some do escape.
00:22:42I didn't know how to do this.
00:22:53Anna? Anna Hempel?
00:23:00There is no one here.
00:23:04Curtis, is he with you?
00:23:08When will he be here?
00:23:10He won't be here, Anna.
00:23:13He didn't even get out of Stepin.
00:23:16But he is alive. He's all right.
00:23:18He was caught.
00:23:20I got away, Anna, but he was caught.
00:23:24He's alive.
00:23:25Anna, you must know that when we are caught, we disappear permanently.
00:23:39You've always known this time could come.
00:23:42I've known.
00:23:45For years, I thought I'm dead.
00:24:04I can help, Carl.
00:24:06I'm an American citizen now.
00:24:09I will go to the council tomorrow morning and see what I can do.
00:24:12No, Anna.
00:24:13There is a better way.
00:24:16Do you remember Dr. Reinhard Kissel?
00:24:20Uncle Reinhard.
00:24:22Of course I remember him.
00:24:24Well, since the war, Dr. Kissel has been a captive scientist working for the Russians at the University of Stettin.
00:24:30Kurt was working with him.
00:24:32Over a month ago, Dr. Kissel escaped and is now safe in America.
00:24:36Oh, I'm so glad.
00:24:39But if he's already in America, what can I do?
00:24:43In his haste to get away, he was unable to take with him a transcript that he had made of
00:24:48all his Russian research.
00:24:49Now, there is no one in the world who knows more about the guided missiles than he does.
00:24:53But one can carry only so much in the head.
00:24:56So Dr. Kissel needed this transcript.
00:24:58So he got word to Kurt as to its exact location.
00:25:01And Kurt found it.
00:25:03And gave it to me before he was caught.
00:25:06You have it here now?
00:25:08Yeah.
00:25:09Oh, we must get it into safe hands immediately.
00:25:11Kurt said to give it to you.
00:25:21Steel mirror.
00:25:23This is the transcript.
00:25:25Yeah.
00:25:26The military uses it in.
00:25:29Do you see this engraving?
00:25:32Look closely.
00:25:36It's to us ordinary scratches.
00:25:38But under magnification, it is the key to the most recent Soviet advancement in the field of the intercontinental missile.
00:25:44Why give it to me?
00:25:46We must take it to the proper authorities and they will see that Dr. Kissel gets it.
00:25:58Anna.
00:25:59The Soviet espionage is very active in Berlin.
00:26:02And I cannot run the risk of letting that transcript fall into the wrong hands.
00:26:07Then I will take it to the American consul.
00:26:10No, Anna.
00:26:11Your brother Kurt was killed trying to get that transcript to Dr. Kissel.
00:26:16Now you must follow his instructions.
00:26:18There may be traitors even in the consul.
00:26:22We cannot trust anyone.
00:26:25You take it with you to America.
00:26:27God.
00:26:28Anna.
00:26:30It is ordinary equipment for a lady's handbag.
00:26:34But America is big.
00:26:37Where will I look for him?
00:26:38Where will I find him?
00:26:39Anna, I cannot stay longer.
00:26:41You know people that you can contact and you want to help.
00:26:45You will find him, Anna.
00:26:57Anna.
00:27:00Kurt was my dear friend.
00:27:04And I am very sorry for him.
00:27:07And for you.
00:27:10Goodbye, Anna.
00:27:12I will be the same, Carl.
00:27:14I will do my best.
00:27:15I will be the same, Carl.
00:27:43Carl!
00:27:46Carl!
00:27:49Carl!
00:28:00You, uh, you've been in Los Angeles for three months?
00:28:03Yes.
00:28:04Well, then why all the hurry now?
00:28:06Well, when I came back, I was ill for quite a few weeks.
00:28:09The doctors called it by big names, but it, but it was simple shock.
00:28:14They wanted to put me in a sanitarium.
00:28:17But there's a, a Dr. Simmons who lives in my apartment building, and he wouldn't let them.
00:28:23Without him, I would have certainly lost my mind.
00:28:28And the nurse, uh, the nurse, Miss Betke, she works for Dr. Simmons.
00:28:33Dr. Simmons means well.
00:28:35He watches over me night and day.
00:28:38I haven't told him any of this.
00:28:40You're the only one who knows about the steel mirror.
00:28:43And where's the mirror now?
00:28:46It's in my bag.
00:28:49But you still haven't told me why all the rush now.
00:28:52You see, I've been trying to locate Dr. Kissel, and I could get no leads.
00:28:58Finally, I decided to phone Central Intelligence in Washington.
00:29:02I told them my story.
00:29:04And they got quite excited about it.
00:29:07They told me they would send a man to see me.
00:29:09You know, perhaps that has something to do with our trouble back on the highway.
00:29:12No, I, I don't think so.
00:29:14Their man was to contact me.
00:29:16But yesterday, I read in the papers that Dr. Kissel was at a university in Santa Fe.
00:29:21I left immediately.
00:29:23Of course, you know the rest.
00:29:28You know, this is the screwiest story I ever heard.
00:29:31If I read it, I wouldn't believe it.
00:29:33But you do believe me.
00:29:34You will help me.
00:29:36I haven't much choice, have I?
00:29:39All right, the next thing to do is get in the car.
00:29:41What about the police?
00:29:42If there's a roadblock, we can't get very far.
00:29:46Well, Ann, you just relax.
00:29:47Maybe I'll think of something.
00:29:50I'm glad you called me in.
00:29:53Sorry I got you into so much trouble, Mr. Emmett.
00:29:56John.
00:30:06You ready?
00:30:08You know, for the first time in a long while, I don't feel all alone.
00:30:31Here he comes.
00:30:33What do we do?
00:30:37Just sit tight.
00:30:48You know, we got to get this car off the road for a while.
00:30:59We can't go in there like this.
00:31:02Why not?
00:31:03All we need is a little bit of nerve.
00:31:07Think you got enough?
00:31:08I think so.
00:31:21All right.
00:31:23Howdy, folks.
00:31:24Howdy.
00:31:25Can I help you?
00:31:26Yeah, my wife and I like a room.
00:31:28We probably won't spend the night just long enough to freshen up.
00:31:31We've been trying to make time driving east, and that desert hit us kind of hard.
00:31:35It does, most folks.
00:31:37Will you come in and sign the register, please?
00:31:38Ah, sure.
00:31:39Say, you got anybody here who can take my bags out of the car?
00:31:42Well, we got a handyman.
00:31:43I guess he can help you.
00:32:10Can I do anything else for you?
00:32:11Ah, yes.
00:32:12Is there any way you could get us on the deed?
00:32:15Sandwiches and a cup of coffee would be fine.
00:32:17Yeah, I guess so.
00:32:18Good.
00:32:18And could you get us a newspaper?
00:32:20I'll see if it's come in yet.
00:32:22Anything else?
00:32:24Ah.
00:32:27Yes.
00:32:28Yes, as a matter of fact, I, uh, I lost the key to this lock.
00:32:33I wonder if you could bring me a hacksaw.
00:32:36Yeah, I got everything in my workhouse.
00:32:38I'll take it out to the shop and I'll see if anything...
00:32:39It's, uh, just do what I ask you to, huh?
00:32:46Sure anything you say, mister?
00:32:47Here you are.
00:32:48You might make yourself a little tip.
00:33:01I wonder if it's taking him so long.
00:33:03Oh, we're playing percentages, Ann.
00:33:04Maybe they got suspicious and decided to check with the sheriff.
00:33:07And maybe your picture's in the morning paper.
00:33:09But I told you I didn't do...
00:33:10I know, but it's percentages.
00:33:11Let's just hope that we're lucky.
00:33:14Okay, now, yeah, help me with us.
00:33:19Okay, let's go.
00:33:22Don't forget to turn on that shower.
00:33:27Come on in.
00:33:34I'm in here.
00:33:35I got everything from hacksaw to coffee.
00:33:37Head around the store for the paper.
00:33:39All right.
00:33:40What do I owe you?
00:33:41$1.85.
00:33:44Okay, I'll tell you what.
00:33:44How much was that bill I gave you?
00:33:46Five bucks.
00:33:47Okay, you keep the change.
00:33:49Hey, how about that?
00:33:51Thanks.
00:33:51Thanks a lot, mister.
00:33:52All right, boy.
00:33:53You earned it.
00:34:03Go over there.
00:34:05Well, we got a nice couple of hours work for this.
00:34:08Let's hope it lasts.
00:34:12Central intelligence agent murdered.
00:34:18Robert Stanton, special agent for the Central Intelligence Agency,
00:34:21found shot.
00:34:23Police are looking for a woman believed to have been the last person to see him alive.
00:34:27That's why they were looking for me.
00:34:29Yeah, yeah, that's the general idea.
00:34:31Well, no wonder those sheriffs were looking for us.
00:34:33Why didn't you tell me anything about this?
00:34:34Well, I didn't know.
00:34:35I don't know a Robert Stanton.
00:34:37So you said.
00:34:38But this has nothing to do with me.
00:34:40It hasn't, huh?
00:34:41What time was your appointment with Stanton?
00:34:43I told you I didn't have an appointment.
00:34:45He was to contact me.
00:34:46All right, all right, all right.
00:34:47Where did you live in L.A.?
00:34:48Paxton Arms Apartments.
00:34:50The Paxton Arms Apartments.
00:34:51Stanton was found killed in the car under the Paxton Arms at approximately 4.05 p.m.
00:34:56I wasn't there.
00:34:58You weren't, huh?
00:34:59No.
00:35:00Ah, Central Intelligence Agent.
00:35:03I knew there was something screwy about this all along,
00:35:05but I don't happen to have anything like the imagination that you have.
00:35:08Now, why don't you do something new?
00:35:09Why don't you just make up a whole fresh story?
00:35:10Go ahead, go ahead.
00:35:11Start from scratch.
00:35:11I wish I could tear these handcuffs off.
00:35:13Oh, of course you do.
00:35:14You got to get to Santa Fe and the mysterious Dr. Reinhard Kissel.
00:35:17You know, you know, Madam X, maybe that nurse wasn't kidding.
00:35:20Maybe you did suffer a real deep nervous breakdown.
00:35:22But there is a Dr. Kissel.
00:35:24Why don't you just tell me the truth?
00:35:25I have told you the truth.
00:35:32What are you doing?
00:35:33What am I doing?
00:35:38I'm just trying to find something out of all this mess that makes a little...
00:35:43These belong to those cops.
00:35:58All right, Mrs. Nicholson.
00:36:02Are you free to go, Mr. Emmis?
00:36:05No.
00:36:06No, I'm not free.
00:36:08I won't be free until they find Stanton's murderer.
00:36:10You know what you and I are going to do?
00:36:12We're going to give ourselves up.
00:36:12It's a miracle we ever got this far.
00:36:14Well, I can't.
00:36:15I must go on.
00:36:17Look, why can't I make you understand?
00:36:19If you are innocent, if there is any kind of explanation,
00:36:21all we've got to do is go to the proper authorities
00:36:23and straighten the whole blessed thing out.
00:36:25You say it's two hours to Santa Fe.
00:36:27Yes.
00:36:27You stay here and wait until I come back.
00:36:30Look, whether it's right or wrong.
00:36:32My brother and his friend Carl were killed
00:36:34trying to get this message to Dr. Kissel.
00:36:36I gave them my word that I would.
00:36:39I must try.
00:36:41I...
00:36:42Here, read this.
00:36:47Dean William Brand of Fairmont University ends mystery.
00:36:51After many months of secrecy,
00:36:52there's the whereabouts of Dr. Reinhard Kissel.
00:36:55Dr. Kissel will proceed immediately to Santa Fe, New Mexico,
00:36:58where he will assume a post in the physics department
00:37:00of Fairmont University Dean William Brand announced earlier today.
00:37:03After I see Dr. Kissel, I'll do anything you want.
00:37:05I'll go to the police, anything, I promise you.
00:37:12Okay, baby.
00:37:14Santa Fe and Kissel it is.
00:37:16If we ever get that far.
00:37:51Dean Brand.
00:37:52Yes?
00:37:52Oh, at the university, your secretary said we'd find you in,
00:37:55Mrs. Nicholson.
00:37:57Of course, she called me about you.
00:37:58Come in, please.
00:37:59How do you do, Dean Brand?
00:38:07Won't you sit down?
00:38:14Now, who is the gentleman you're looking for?
00:38:16It's a Dr. Reinhard Kissel.
00:38:18He's a very good friend of mine,
00:38:19and it's very important that I see him.
00:38:21Reinhard Kissel?
00:38:23Strange, I don't recall the name.
00:38:25Is he attending our summer session?
00:38:27Oh, no.
00:38:28No, he's not a student.
00:38:29He's a teacher.
00:38:30At Paramount?
00:38:31Yes.
00:38:32Oh, my dear, there's been some mistake.
00:38:34I'm only a summer replacement,
00:38:35but I'm sure I would have heard of him.
00:38:38But he must be.
00:38:40He's got to be.
00:38:42Well, now, you don't believe me?
00:38:44Well, it isn't that I don't believe you,
00:38:46but he just has to be here.
00:38:47Anne.
00:38:48Yes, but I've counted so much.
00:38:49Anne, this is no time to get excited.
00:38:51Just show the Dean the clip.
00:38:52Oh, Anne.
00:38:53Oh, Anne.
00:39:03We have no such person on our staff,
00:39:05and we're not expecting one.
00:39:07It's really rather baffling, isn't it?
00:39:08I can't account for such an error.
00:39:10Well, how can you say it's an error?
00:39:12I've just told you.
00:39:13I'm sure newspapers sometimes make such mistakes.
00:39:16You don't understand.
00:39:17I've waited so long.
00:39:19I've tried so hard to find him.
00:39:22I'm just so tired.
00:39:25I know nothing about your difficulty,
00:39:27but I may say that perhaps this whole business
00:39:29has become exaggerated in your own mind.
00:39:31Exaggerated in my mind?
00:39:33Anne, Dean Brandt is only trying to help.
00:39:35I merely observe that you seem to be under great strain.
00:39:39I'm sorry.
00:39:40I...
00:39:41Better get a hold of yourself, Anne.
00:39:49I understood more about her condition.
00:39:51Well, that's rather a long story, Dean.
00:39:53Perhaps there are medical complications.
00:39:55In that case, you should call a physician.
00:39:56That's already been taken care of.
00:39:57Our nurses.
00:39:59Anne, I think we'd better be going now.
00:40:03Please forgive me, Dean.
00:40:04Of course.
00:40:05Of course.
00:40:19Now, don't look back.
00:40:22Our friend, the Dean, is watching out the window.
00:40:35You may have read about the trouble in the paper
00:40:37and called the police.
00:40:38Well, same car, same license plate.
00:40:40I can't understand why we haven't seen more cops.
00:40:42Well, let's hope our luck holds as far as the Estes Hotel.
00:40:46Is that where you're taking me?
00:40:48Yeah.
00:40:48Yeah, you need that nurse.
00:41:20Thanks again.
00:41:21Anne, I hope you have a good time at Pruitt's Lodge.
00:41:26By the way, how will you get there?
00:41:28Oh, I don't know.
00:41:29I'll rent a car, take the bus.
00:41:30It isn't very far.
00:41:33Bye.
00:41:34I think I ought to check on Miss Bethke.
00:41:37That won't be necessary, Mr. Emmett.
00:41:39I've been waiting.
00:41:40Well, you're a very efficient nurse.
00:41:42Dr. Simmons orders.
00:41:44Dr. Simmons here?
00:41:45Yes.
00:41:46You look very tired, Mrs. Nicholson.
00:41:49We have some fresh things upstairs.
00:41:50We brought them with us.
00:41:53She, uh, she's had quite a trip.
00:41:55Dr. Simmons asked me to give you this for your trouble.
00:42:00Money, huh?
00:42:02Thank you just the same.
00:42:04Dr. Simmons is waiting.
00:42:06He asked me to have you leave as soon as you brought her here.
00:42:10Well, he wants to avoid unnecessary complications.
00:42:13Of course.
00:42:13I understand.
00:42:16It would have been better if we had said goodbye in the car.
00:42:20Well, I, uh, I don't know when I've had so much fun.
00:42:23Goodbye.
00:42:26John.
00:42:27John.
00:42:29I'll never forget you.
00:42:33I'll never forget you.
00:42:35Well.
00:42:49I'll never forget you.
00:42:57Mr. Simmons.
00:43:05Miss Befke, as a nurse, you must realize that it is the doctor's duty to protect his patient.
00:43:10Why, yes, doctor, of course.
00:43:12Now, severe cases sometimes call for severe treatment.
00:43:17I've made arrangements to take Mrs. Nicholson to Young's Valley Sanatorium near here.
00:43:22It's a mental hospital for cases which must be isolated for long-time treatment.
00:43:27They can't touch her there.
00:43:29Well, if you told her?
00:43:31No, not yet.
00:43:32Oh, by the way, I need you to sign this paper.
00:43:37Go ahead, read it.
00:43:38I need a witness to Mrs. Nicholson's condition.
00:43:41As you know, she has no family.
00:43:59I'll be happy to go along and stay with her if you think it will help.
00:44:02That won't be necessary.
00:44:03Staff people will be here first thing in the morning and you can leave for Los Angeles on the 10
00:44:07o'clock plane.
00:44:09My office has been running itself long enough.
00:44:12Do what you can to keep what patients I have left happy.
00:44:14If all goes well, I'll be back tomorrow afternoon.
00:44:17Very well.
00:44:23Has she ever mentioned a man named Kissel to you?
00:44:26Kissel?
00:44:27No, but I haven't had much time to talk to her.
00:44:30Well, she says he's the reason she came to Santa Fe.
00:44:33Kissel.
00:44:34Kissel.
00:44:35No, anything else?
00:44:36Well, only that she read about his being here in a newspaper and she's been unable to find him.
00:44:40Well, it's possible that this man, Mr. Kissel, doesn't even exist.
00:44:44What makes you say that, Dr. Simmons?
00:44:47Mrs. Nicholson.
00:44:49Dr. Kissel does exist and I did read that he was here.
00:44:52Why, of course, Mrs. Nicholson.
00:44:54It wasn't that I doubted you.
00:44:55It was just that...
00:44:56Now, look, why don't you go back to bed and...
00:44:58Please, Dr. Simmons, don't talk to me in that condescending tone.
00:45:02I know what I read.
00:45:03All right.
00:45:04Maybe we can help you.
00:45:06Why didn't you tell me about him before?
00:45:08Now, you know I've been very close to you for the last three months
00:45:10and you've never even mentioned his name.
00:45:12Well, I couldn't.
00:45:14I haven't discussed this with anyone until now.
00:45:18Wait a minute.
00:45:19I'll get you the clipping.
00:45:25Give in to her on everything.
00:45:28We must avoid an emotional crisis.
00:45:32It's gone.
00:45:34But I did have it.
00:45:36Why, no, no.
00:45:38I gave it to Dean Brandt.
00:45:41Dean Brandt?
00:45:41Yes, he's the dean at Fairmont University.
00:45:44Dr. Kissel was supposed to be teaching there.
00:45:46At least that's what the clipping said.
00:45:48Now, Mrs. Nicholson, I must be firm about this.
00:45:52I can't allow you to be more involved in this strange situation.
00:45:55You must rest now and then come on.
00:45:57No, but first I want the clipping.
00:45:58I gave it to the dean and he didn't give it back.
00:46:01He said he had never heard of Dr. Kissel.
00:46:03All right, I'll tell you what I'll do.
00:46:05He may still be at the university.
00:46:07Why don't I call him?
00:46:08No, he's at home.
00:46:10Oak Street.
00:46:11William Brandt on Oak Street.
00:46:18Operator, get me Dean William Brandt on Oak Street.
00:46:20That's right.
00:46:25May I speak to Dean William Brandt, please?
00:46:28Oh, how do you do, Dean Brandt?
00:46:29This may strike you as a rather odd phone call.
00:46:32My name is Simmons, Dr. Frederick Simmons of Los Angeles.
00:46:35It's in connection with a patient of mine, Mrs. Ann Nicholson.
00:46:38She called on you earlier this afternoon.
00:46:40Yes, she was here all right.
00:46:42She was inquiring regarding a Dr. Kissel.
00:46:45Unfortunately, I had never heard of him.
00:46:47Tell me, Dean Brandt, do you still have the newspaper clipping she gave you concerning this man, Kissel?
00:46:51But she never showed me a clipping.
00:46:54Oh, I see.
00:46:55Would you mind repeating that, please?
00:46:59She never showed me a clipping.
00:47:01I did give him a clipping.
00:47:02Here, let me...
00:47:03Just a moment, Dean Brandt.
00:47:05Mrs. Nicholson, you're in enough trouble as things stand now.
00:47:07Please be quiet.
00:47:09Thank you, Dean Brandt.
00:47:10No, no, no, don't trouble yourself.
00:47:12Forgive me for this inconvenience.
00:47:15Just forget the whole matter.
00:47:17Thank you again.
00:47:18Goodbye.
00:47:21I don't understand.
00:47:23Do you think I could have imagined all this?
00:47:27You?
00:47:28Well, you have been under a dreadful strain.
00:47:30Mrs. Nicholson, undoubtedly some confusions have developed in your mind.
00:47:35But there is nothing wrong with you that a few weeks of quiet won't cure.
00:47:39Now, I've made arrangements at a rest home.
00:47:41No, but there was a clipping.
00:47:42Mrs. Nicholson, I haven't even asked you about Stanton, the central intelligence man.
00:47:46Now, the police will.
00:47:48They'll ask lots of questions.
00:47:50Your mental condition is the least of your problems.
00:47:53Yes, but I don't know anything about Stanton, and I can explain about...
00:48:03You do what's ever best, don't you?
00:48:05Now, that's much better.
00:48:08Now, once you're feeling better and everything is all straightened out, you'll come back to Los Angeles.
00:48:14It won't take long.
00:48:16All right, Doctor.
00:48:17Miss Bethke, see to it that Mrs. Nicholson goes to bed at once.
00:48:20Yes.
00:48:23We went home.
00:48:35We went home.
00:48:56Hello?
00:48:57Is that you, Mr. Emmett?
00:48:59Yes.
00:49:01Yes, I'm John Emmett.
00:49:03What's the matter?
00:49:04Is something wrong?
00:49:05Oh, no.
00:49:07And it's getting very late.
00:49:08I was beginning to wonder if anything had happened.
00:49:11No, no.
00:49:11The bus was late.
00:49:13Say, you know, it's nice to have somebody who's concerned about you.
00:49:15Well, I'm Mrs. Pruitt.
00:49:17And we're glad to have you here.
00:49:19I think you'll like it, too.
00:49:21Well, I'll say.
00:49:22You know, the fish are running very good this year.
00:49:24The fellow this morning got his catch within an hour.
00:49:27Really?
00:49:27Well, I'll try my luck tomorrow.
00:49:28All right.
00:49:29Come on.
00:49:29I'll show you the way.
00:49:35Well, I tell you, I've checked everything.
00:49:37Her clothes, her purse, everything.
00:49:40Yes, Dean Brandt, I looked some more, but it would help if I knew what we were looking for.
00:49:44No, I'm not trying to be funny.
00:49:48Yes, she's agreed to go of her own accord.
00:49:51The attendants from Young's Valley Sanatorium will be here in the morning.
00:49:55No, she's out.
00:49:56She'll sleep till noon tomorrow.
00:49:59All right.
00:50:00I'll keep looking.
00:50:02Good night.
00:50:28Are you about ready?
00:50:29The car will be here in a minute.
00:50:31I'm hurrying as fast as I can.
00:50:34It's just that I feel so dizzy.
00:50:35That sedative Miss Bethke gave me.
00:50:38Here, take one of these.
00:50:40It'll fill your head up and make you feel better.
00:50:43Here they are now.
00:50:44Please hurry.
00:50:45Hurry.
00:51:08Dr. Simmons?
00:51:09Oh, yes.
00:51:10Come in, please.
00:51:11Where is the patient?
00:51:11She's inside, dressing.
00:51:13You have the papers?
00:51:14Oh, yes.
00:51:14Here they are.
00:51:20Seem to be in order.
00:51:22Isolation patient.
00:51:23Serious mental breakdown.
00:51:25She held to notified.
00:51:26No contact outside the hospital.
00:51:28That's correct.
00:51:29Would you boys care for a cup of coffee?
00:52:05How's the fishing?
00:52:07I just got here.
00:52:08Yes, I know.
00:52:10After 10, a little late in the day for a fisherman, isn't it?
00:52:14Well, I had other things in my mind.
00:52:16Oh?
00:52:18Well, it's my turn.
00:52:19Who are you?
00:52:24United States government.
00:52:26This is to certify that Edward Manning Kirkpatrick is an authorized representative of the Central Intelligence
00:52:31Agent.
00:52:32CIA.
00:52:33You or John Emmett?
00:52:35That's right.
00:52:36Sit down, Mr. Emmett.
00:52:40Sit down.
00:52:47You ought to be tired.
00:52:48You didn't get much sleep the past few nights, which means neither did I.
00:52:51I don't get it.
00:52:53You met a Mrs. Ann Nicholson.
00:52:54I have the exact hour at a garage in Jepson, California.
00:52:57You dropped her last night at the Estes Hotel in Santa Fe at 6.03 p.m.
00:53:01That's right.
00:53:02Why?
00:53:04Okay, she wanted somebody to help drive through to Santa Fe.
00:53:07So she gave me a lift.
00:53:09Well, she was in a hurry.
00:53:10I can understand that.
00:53:11She left a dead man behind her in L.A.
00:53:13I know.
00:53:14We, uh, we read about that in the newspaper.
00:53:17Believe me, she was just as surprised as I was.
00:53:19Maybe.
00:53:19But why the race to Santa Fe?
00:53:22Well, she had to see somebody there.
00:53:23Dr. Kissel.
00:53:24Dr. Reinhardt Kissel.
00:53:25He was supposed to be at Fairmont University.
00:53:27She'd been in touch with him?
00:53:28No, no.
00:53:29She had a clipping she cut out of the paper.
00:53:31But, uh, we got there and he wasn't there.
00:53:32Nobody ever heard of the guy.
00:53:33Not even Dean William Brandt?
00:53:35Especially Dean William Brandt.
00:53:37All right, that takes us to the Estes Hotel in Santa Fe.
00:53:40That was quite a vacation trip.
00:53:41Yeah.
00:53:43You know, you can't relax with things on your mind.
00:53:46Like to tell me anything else, Mr. Emmett?
00:53:48Yeah.
00:53:49Yeah, I'll tell you what I'll do.
00:53:50I'll go back with you.
00:53:51I'll testify.
00:53:52I'll do anything I can to help Mrs. Nicholson.
00:53:54Now, what do you want out of me?
00:53:55She seems pretty well taken care of at the moment.
00:53:57So sit down, Mr. Emmett.
00:54:03This newspaper tripping about Fairmont University interests me.
00:54:07Reinhardt Kissel couldn't have been there.
00:54:08He's working for the government at Numa.
00:54:11No.
00:54:12The guided missile project.
00:54:15Uh, you, uh, you said something about Mrs. Nicholson being taken care of.
00:54:18What did you mean?
00:54:19By this time, safe and sound in a quiet room and a rest home for the mentally ill.
00:54:24What?
00:54:25This Dr. Simmons is a very efficient man.
00:54:27No one's going to ask a woman to stand trial when papers have been signed committing her to an institution.
00:54:32She's, she's as sane as you are.
00:54:34You got a license to practice?
00:54:37It's an interesting case, Emmett.
00:54:39Stanton checked through our office before he went to call on Mrs. Nicholson.
00:54:43So I was able to pick up the trail early.
00:54:44Routine.
00:54:46Of course, I had to pry the sheriff and his deputies off your back.
00:54:49They were sore as old goats.
00:54:52I wonder why we weren't picked up.
00:54:53CIA priority.
00:54:55I had to find out where you and Mrs. Nicholson would lead me.
00:54:57She's out of circulation, so here I am.
00:55:01You're awfully restless.
00:55:02Where are you going?
00:55:03Where am I going?
00:55:05I'm going back to Santa Fe and talk to this Dr. Simmons.
00:55:09Stay where you are, Mr. Emmett.
00:55:10There's nothing you can do at the moment.
00:55:13Keep this number in Santa Fe.
00:55:17Call me if you need me.
00:55:47Who's that?
00:55:51john how did you get here i had to see you i didn't have anyone to go to i ran

01:06:49Do you have a pass, sir?
01:06:50No, I don't, but if I can get the phone...
01:06:52What's your name, sir?
01:06:53Mr. and Mrs. John Emmett.
01:06:55We'd like to see Dr. Kissel, Dr. Reinhardt Kissel.
01:06:57My wife is a very close personal friend of hers.
01:07:00You have some identification, sir?
01:07:02Yeah, I have my business cards.
01:07:06Driver's license, that sort of thing.
01:07:13Sergeant, there's some way you can handle this without all his usual.
01:07:16Yes, sir.
01:07:17See the Mr. and Mrs. Emmett get to room 106.
01:07:21Very kind of you.
01:07:22Order, sir.
01:07:22This way, sir.
01:07:48Well, Kirkpatrick.
01:07:48You're a little late, Mr. Emmett.
01:07:50I've been waiting.
01:07:51Everything in order, Mr. Kirkpatrick?
01:07:52Yes, thanks.
01:07:53Well, we had a little delay on the way.
01:07:55Flat tire, I understand.
01:07:56How do you know that?
01:07:58You're here to see Dr. Kissel, Mrs.
01:08:00Nicholson.
01:08:01Nicholson.
01:08:02The meeting will be arranged in a moment.
01:08:04Would you ask the gentleman in there to step in with us, please?
01:08:06Yes, sir.
01:08:11Dr. Simmons.
01:08:12Mrs. Nicholson, I don't know what this is all about.
01:08:14I knew how worried Dr. Simmons must be, so I asked him to meet us here.
01:08:17Mrs. Nicholson, why did they bring you here?
01:08:19Your patient requested an interview with one of the scientists, the Dr. Kissel.
01:08:22Who?
01:08:24Oh, yes.
01:08:25The individual involved in Mrs. Nicholson's hallucinations.
01:08:28There is a Dr. Kissel, and I've known him all my life.
01:08:30Kissel's real enough.
01:08:31He's here.
01:08:32That is beside the point.
01:08:33Mrs. Nicholson is in a serious nervous condition.
01:08:36She ran away.
01:08:37Then with the interference of this man, you know him?
01:08:40It can only be John Emmett, and I'm preferring charges against him.
01:08:43Then you should know that your patient and Mr. Emmett are married.
01:08:47I don't believe it.
01:08:49You should remember little things like that, Mrs. Emmett.
01:08:51Have you got the marriage certificate, Mr. Emmett?
01:08:54Yes.
01:09:01Married today at high noon, legal and proper.
01:09:04You forced her into this.
01:09:06I did it of my own free will.
01:09:08I consider this taking advantage when she's in her present condition.
01:09:11It is an invasion of her rights and mine.
01:09:13You seem to be in more of a condition than Mrs. Emmett.
01:09:18May I see Dr. Kissel now, please?
01:09:20Everything's arranged.
01:09:21This way, please.
01:09:25You too, doctor.
01:09:32Dr. Kissel's on his way.
01:09:36Is it possible I could see Dr. Kissel alone?
01:09:39I'm sorry, Mrs. Emmett.
01:09:42Mr. Kirkpatrick?
01:09:44Yes?
01:09:44This is Dr. Reinhard Kissel.
01:09:53Dr. Kissel?
01:09:54They told me someone wanted to see me.
01:09:57You are the one?
01:10:00Dr. Kissel, don't you remember me?
01:10:03Anna?
01:10:05Anna Hempel.
01:10:08That was a long time ago.
01:10:11Anna.
01:10:12After all these years.
01:10:14Such changes.
01:10:18You have changed, sir.
01:10:20But I would remember you anyplace.
01:10:23But I was always told to you the same old clay and the limp.
01:10:28But you are just now grown up.
01:10:30And so beautiful, Anna.
01:10:34May Anna and I go somewhere and talk.
01:10:36I'm sorry, Dr. Kissel.
01:10:38This is the arrangement.
01:10:41I hear so little from my old friends.
01:10:43Your brother cursed.
01:10:46I heard that he was caught.
01:10:48He was brave and good.
01:10:51I owe him my life, Anna.
01:10:53Yes, I was in Berlin when I heard.
01:10:55Word was brought to me that he was dead.
01:10:59Word was brought to you?
01:11:02By whom, Anna?
01:11:05By another friend of yours.
01:11:08Someone that you worked with, with Kurt.
01:11:16Carl Fletzer?
01:11:18Carl Fletzer?
01:11:18He was shot and killed as he was leaving my apartment.
01:11:21How could they?
01:11:23Did he leave something with you for me?
01:11:31Yes.
01:11:33That's why I'm here.
01:11:34I, I have your transcript.
01:11:38He did get my message, then.
01:11:40I thought it was lost forever.
01:11:43I promised him that I wouldn't tell anyone until I found you.
01:11:48I'm glad.
01:11:50Very glad to be here.
01:12:04Where is my transcript, Anna?
01:12:12Where?
01:12:24Here.
01:12:26Here it is, Doctor.
01:12:29It was transferred to microfilm.
01:12:33This represents so much work.
01:12:36I'm proud of you, Anna.
01:12:38And so grateful.
01:12:41All right, Mrs. Emmett.
01:12:43Dr. Kisson, you have an important assignment ahead of you.
01:12:46Yes.
01:12:47I shall have a free hand in this.
01:12:49I must get started.
01:12:51You may go now.
01:12:52Thanks.
01:12:54And goodbye, Anna.
01:13:11Mr. Kirkpatrick, could I see you alone, please?
01:13:15Yes, I guess so.
01:13:18You step in a moment, please.
01:13:21Stay with these two men, if you will.
01:13:23Could John come with me, please?
01:13:26Sure. Come on.
01:13:35That man is not Dr. Kissel.
01:13:37Are you sure?
01:13:38Positive.
01:13:39The real Dr. Kissel engraved the back of this mirror.
01:13:43You didn't even recognize her.
01:13:46I'll keep this, Mrs. Emmett.
01:13:48You've delivered it.
01:13:52It's a special FBI agent, Anderson.
01:13:54I think you've met, Mr. and Mrs. Emmett.
01:13:56How do you do?
01:13:57How are you?
01:13:58Fine.
01:13:59Same thing as the beginning to add up here.
01:14:01For us too, Mr. Emmett.
01:14:02For us too.
01:14:03But if he knew about everything else,
01:14:06why didn't he know about the steel mirror?
01:14:08Well, we all knew that you were bringing something to Kissel.
01:14:10Formulas, plans, but no one knew how.
01:14:13I haven't got time to go into details now.
01:14:16I'm going to ask you to do us a very big favor.
01:14:22Sure.
01:14:22What is it you want, Mr. Kirkpatrick?
01:14:39Get me 43471.
01:14:41Get off the telephone.
01:14:45But I had to reach you.
01:14:46I'm here.
01:14:47Did the woman see Kissel?
01:14:48Yes.
01:14:49But things went well.
01:14:51Much better than we expected.
01:14:52Things went very well.
01:14:53Stop gibbering.
01:14:54Did she recognize him?
01:14:56I don't think so.
01:14:57You don't think?
01:14:58But plans belonging to Kissel and Stettin.
01:15:00She delivered them.
01:15:01She did have his plans.
01:15:03I knew that was why she wanted to see him.
01:15:07It had to be.
01:15:09She was sick for three months.
01:15:10You were with her night and day.
01:15:12One purpose.
01:15:13To find out if she brought those plans with her from Germany.
01:15:16You a psychiatrist.
01:15:18Now look, I...
01:15:19We turned that fool Kissel to jelly before he died and he didn't tell.
01:15:23Then this hysterical woman.
01:15:26What are they going to do now?
01:15:27Tonight they leave for Los Angeles.
01:15:29I'll go with them.
01:15:30In Los Angeles she'll be involved in questioning.
01:15:32The woman will not leave Santa Fe.
01:15:34But this will give you time here.
01:15:36Fool!
01:15:36She's the only living person who can identify her, Dr. Kissel.
01:15:44Is she coming here before she leaves for the airport?
01:15:47Yes, that's the plan.
01:15:49The woman's not to leave the hotel.
01:15:51Understand?
01:15:53Harry, our young man with the gun, has run out on us.
01:15:56You can double for him.
01:15:57I...
01:15:58I can't get away with that.
01:16:00Now you know that.
01:16:01You know that.
01:16:02Yes, Dr. Simmons.
01:16:05Yes.
01:16:16Come in.
01:16:23It will only be a minute.
01:16:25There's no hurry.
01:16:26I'm just waiting for plane time.
01:16:28By the way, did Mr. Kirkpatrick say what time it was leaving?
01:16:31Eight o'clock.
01:16:32I may not come with you.
01:16:34A friend of mine who was going to drive my car back from the airport won't make it.
01:16:38Well, I'll tell Mr. Kirkpatrick.
01:16:40Would you excuse me?
01:16:50I had hoped to see you alone for a moment.
01:16:54Really, all I wanted to say was, I was very wrong.
01:16:57But my motives were for your best interests.
01:17:00At least, that's what I thought.
01:17:02I understand, Doctor.
01:17:10See you later.
01:17:50You look very, he's such a vibe.
01:17:57I can't tell you to do it.
01:17:58You're just kind of telling him one day.
01:17:59Youák!
01:18:07is she all right yeah what about you i'm okay lucky for us what a fool he was what a
01:18:12fool i
01:18:12was you can't calculate every move and we did get results well that's it well what happened
01:18:21what's it all about lots of little pieces to the story but simple at the core this alleged
01:18:27reinhardt kissel is a soviet scientist complete soviet espionage set up they were doing great
01:18:32until you came back to this country determined to find kissel well who put that article in the
01:18:37paper we did we didn't know for sure about brant but we figured you would complicate things for
01:18:42him that is an issue of one of them we were suspicious enough of this phony kissel to
01:18:46keep him under constant surveillance remember the character of the flat tire yeah he was the hired
01:18:51man with a gun he killed stanton we got the confession routine from now on except that
01:18:56until now we only had circumstantial evidence against either simmons or brant no sense in
01:19:02waiting any longer the boys have seen up around here we can stop back for los angeles well if you
