1
00:00:42,254 --> 00:00:44,377
- Yes?
- Drugstore
2
00:00:44,402 --> 00:00:46,690
Miss Judith! Package!
3
00:00:46,917 --> 00:00:48,490
It's a charge. Take it, Pop.
4
00:00:57,269 --> 00:01:01,976
After you go out for dinner, I come
back and permanent fix the plumbing.
5
00:01:02,001 --> 00:01:02,883
Fine.
6
00:01:03,025 --> 00:01:06,809
I use my pass key. You
don't worry about nothing.
7
00:01:07,061 --> 00:01:09,468
Thanks for everything. Good night, Pop.
8
00:01:09,545 --> 00:01:10,581
Good night.
9
00:02:00,164 --> 00:02:05,159
Drugstore again. I... I think
I left the wrong package.
10
00:02:05,184 --> 00:02:07,427
A minute later, I'd have been in the tub.
11
00:02:23,325 --> 00:02:26,741
- No, my name's on it.
- Sorry.
12
00:04:39,915 --> 00:04:42,412
Mr. Mobley, You're on the
air in fifteen minutes.
13
00:04:42,452 --> 00:04:43,726
Just a minute, Gus.
14
00:04:47,008 --> 00:04:52,169
Oh, boy! Have the copy
put on the idiot sheet.
15
00:05:03,176 --> 00:05:05,003
Please, Mr. Mobley.
16
00:05:05,872 --> 00:05:07,567
"Ever on the alert to serve its..."
17
00:05:10,989 --> 00:05:12,483
Mr. Loving's office.
18
00:05:12,620 --> 00:05:17,780
Tell that boss of yours to stop purring
over your shoulder while he dictates.
19
00:05:19,873 --> 00:05:21,866
Shut your obscene face!
20
00:05:22,007 --> 00:05:23,383
Want a drink later...
21
00:05:26,505 --> 00:05:29,376
- At your place?
- Oh, no, we've tried my place.
22
00:05:29,510 --> 00:05:32,844
What would you suggest
- Madison Square Garden?
23
00:05:35,786 --> 00:05:39,201
I'm sorry, Mr. Loving. That Mobley...
I've told him and told him.
24
00:05:40,270 --> 00:05:42,476
Well, frankly, Nancy, I don't blame him.
25
00:05:42,654 --> 00:05:45,739
I sometimes wish these walls
were not made out of glass.
26
00:05:46,494 --> 00:05:49,661
"And the Kyne news service,
ever on the alert..."
27
00:05:49,937 --> 00:05:50,968
"Ever on the alert..."
28
00:05:56,747 --> 00:05:59,452
- Hello.
- Going home, Mildred?
29
00:05:59,477 --> 00:06:01,303
Oh, darling, I don't have to.
30
00:06:02,053 --> 00:06:04,544
There are two schools of
thought about that mink.
31
00:06:05,117 --> 00:06:07,276
One is that a syndicate bought it,
32
00:06:07,378 --> 00:06:10,913
and the other is that Mark Loving
shelled out for the whole thing.
33
00:06:10,938 --> 00:06:13,786
Well, why don't you get me alone
some night and I'll tell you all?
34
00:06:13,821 --> 00:06:18,447
- That's a good offer.
- You ought to find out just how good. Bye.
35
00:06:26,942 --> 00:06:29,268
- Hey! Bright eyes!
- Yes, sir?
36
00:06:29,301 --> 00:06:31,543
- See what's in the city news ticker, huh?
- Right.
37
00:07:02,415 --> 00:07:06,034
Get Mark Loving in here and Jon
Day Griffith and Harry Kritzer!
38
00:07:06,059 --> 00:07:08,071
- And Ed Mobley, too!
- Mr. Kyne.
39
00:07:08,096 --> 00:07:10,996
Mr. Kyne! You promised
the doctor no more work...
40
00:07:11,021 --> 00:07:15,061
A murder story's just come in, Miss
Dodd! It's a lulu, and they're blowing it!
41
00:07:24,443 --> 00:07:27,445
Mr. Griffith,
Mr. Kyne would like to see you.
42
00:07:45,499 --> 00:07:47,478
Gentlemen.
43
00:07:49,140 --> 00:07:50,885
Mr. Griffith.
44
00:07:56,910 --> 00:08:00,694
I don't like to have my wire service
beat by every other one in the country.
45
00:08:02,816 --> 00:08:04,323
Why, it's just another murder.
46
00:08:04,726 --> 00:08:06,699
I suggest that the
life of a human being...
47
00:08:06,724 --> 00:08:09,872
- is not beneath your consideration.
- All right. I'll get onto it myself.
48
00:08:09,970 --> 00:08:13,860
Jon? May I remind you that your first
edition is on the street at 7 pm?
49
00:08:14,167 --> 00:08:17,837
All I've got left is the final.
I'll put this on page two.
50
00:08:18,447 --> 00:08:20,738
How many women in the
United States use lipstick?
51
00:08:20,763 --> 00:08:23,550
- How many women are there?
- I want every one of them scared silly...
52
00:08:23,575 --> 00:08:27,110
every time she puts any on! Call
this baby "The Lipstick Killer".
53
00:08:27,149 --> 00:08:29,149
- Smack across the front page!
- Whatever you say, Amos.
54
00:08:29,174 --> 00:08:32,776
- How about pictures?
- I'll send the men out right away.
55
00:08:33,228 --> 00:08:36,432
And I'll send you a special
letter of commendation.
56
00:08:36,649 --> 00:08:38,642
Now, get out of here, both
of you, and get to work.
57
00:08:41,557 --> 00:08:44,013
Do you want me to feature
this thing on my telecast?
58
00:08:44,961 --> 00:08:48,917
- Ed, I'm real jumpy.
- So am I. I'm on the air in four minutes.
59
00:08:49,315 --> 00:08:52,565
Who's going to run the whole
show when my carburetor conks out?
60
00:08:52,878 --> 00:08:55,250
You'll do that yourself for many a year.
61
00:08:55,275 --> 00:09:00,436
Kyne Enterprises... something that's taken
a lifetime of brains and guts to build...
62
00:09:01,534 --> 00:09:05,995
and in all that lifetime, I find
I've only made two big mistakes.
63
00:09:06,520 --> 00:09:08,762
Well, I'm surprised that
you admit to that many.
64
00:09:09,434 --> 00:09:12,055
One... my son Walter.
I killed him with kindness:
65
00:09:12,526 --> 00:09:16,606
Polo ponies, yachts, women...
especially women he married.
66
00:09:17,916 --> 00:09:21,331
- Second...
- I think you're looking in my direction.
67
00:09:21,786 --> 00:09:25,368
Why didn't you want to fill my
shoes, Ed? Where was your ambition?
68
00:09:25,685 --> 00:09:29,102
I'm content the way I am: Just to
be able to write a book now and then,
69
00:09:29,247 --> 00:09:32,035
keep my nose clean...
I have no appetite for power.
70
00:09:32,940 --> 00:09:36,640
I'm not talking about
power. It's a bigger thing...
71
00:09:36,809 --> 00:09:40,344
the responsibility of the
free press to the people.
72
00:09:40,936 --> 00:09:44,531
In this country, it's the
people who make the decisions.
73
00:09:44,851 --> 00:09:49,782
If they're to make their decisions right,
they have to have all the facts that we...
74
00:09:55,505 --> 00:09:58,044
I didn't mean to cut you off, but...
75
00:09:58,924 --> 00:09:59,805
Amos!
76
00:09:59,830 --> 00:10:02,784
- It's 11 o'clock and Kyne Enterprises...
- Amos! Amos!
77
00:10:02,809 --> 00:10:07,858
including the Kyne newspapers, Kyne
Press Service, Kyne Photo Service...
78
00:10:08,162 --> 00:10:12,290
and Kyne Weekly, present the
distinguished author, columnist,
79
00:10:12,314 --> 00:10:14,314
and Pulitzer Prize winner...
80
00:10:15,638 --> 00:10:17,013
Film. No script.
81
00:10:19,988 --> 00:10:24,116
Ladies and gentlemen,
most newsmen value a beat.
82
00:10:24,931 --> 00:10:27,138
Here's one I wish I didn't have.
83
00:10:27,314 --> 00:10:30,992
A few moments ago, Amos Kyne passed away...
84
00:10:54,833 --> 00:10:56,161
Hello?
85
00:11:04,615 --> 00:11:07,048
- Yes?
- The gentlemen are here, Mr. Kyne.
86
00:11:07,073 --> 00:11:10,858
- Where did they locate him?
- At the Stork Club. Where else?
87
00:11:10,882 --> 00:11:12,095
Yes, sir.
88
00:11:13,476 --> 00:11:15,801
You three. Ed's to wait.
89
00:11:28,521 --> 00:11:32,103
Gentlemen, except for Harry,
I'm afraid I don't know you.
90
00:11:32,590 --> 00:11:34,878
- It is terrible about your father.
- Yes.
91
00:11:35,866 --> 00:11:39,318
- You are... Mark Loving?
- That's right.
92
00:11:39,414 --> 00:11:41,454
And just what do you do around here?
93
00:11:44,602 --> 00:11:48,552
I run Kyne Newswire Service
- KNS.
94
00:11:49,383 --> 00:11:53,808
I presume you've checked our handling
of your father's death. Any suggestions?
95
00:11:54,314 --> 00:11:59,474
The newswire. Yes, we
must talk about that soon.
96
00:12:00,541 --> 00:12:06,164
You must be... Jon Day Griffith.
97
00:12:06,321 --> 00:12:10,271
I sweep up the floor, and
I'm editor of The Sentinel.
98
00:12:10,784 --> 00:12:13,821
I'm also advisory editor
of the other nine papers.
99
00:12:13,846 --> 00:12:16,135
Are you responsible for the
fact that a cheap murder was
100
00:12:16,160 --> 00:12:18,916
featured on the same front
page as the death of my father?
101
00:12:19,270 --> 00:12:21,394
The old man wanted the story played up big.
102
00:12:21,809 --> 00:12:24,300
'Course, he didn't know
then he was going to be news.
103
00:12:24,325 --> 00:12:26,646
But in as much as it was his last request.
104
00:12:26,671 --> 00:12:30,586
Walter, I have arranged a copyrighted
feature on the old man's life.
105
00:12:30,769 --> 00:12:32,726
Shall I give it to Mark
to send over the wire?
106
00:12:33,575 --> 00:12:38,237
We'll see. Harry, it's been a long time.
107
00:12:38,494 --> 00:12:41,529
- How's Dorothy?
- We must have dinner soon.
108
00:12:42,581 --> 00:12:44,750
I just wanted to tell
you three that at the
109
00:12:44,763 --> 00:12:47,043
moment I contemplate no
changes in personnel.
110
00:12:47,379 --> 00:12:51,079
So for the time being, none of
you has anything to worry about.
111
00:12:57,682 --> 00:13:01,133
On your way,
will you tell Mobley to come in?
112
00:13:09,569 --> 00:13:11,527
- Well?
- You're on.
113
00:13:30,343 --> 00:13:34,471
- So, you're Edward Mobley?
- Deepest sympathy Mr. Kyne.
114
00:13:34,890 --> 00:13:36,681
- Sit down.
- Thank you.
115
00:13:38,017 --> 00:13:40,260
You're the fellow who wrote the book.
116
00:13:41,313 --> 00:13:45,074
Every time the old man got
sore at me, which was often,
117
00:13:45,099 --> 00:13:49,827
he used to talk about you.
Mobley this and Mobley that.
118
00:13:50,031 --> 00:13:54,859
- I got pretty sick of it.
- Yes I can imagine you did.
119
00:13:55,578 --> 00:13:59,992
Those three who were just in here made
their opinion of me pretty plain...
120
00:14:00,085 --> 00:14:04,628
Amos Kyne's idiot son.
I suppose you feel the same.
121
00:14:05,298 --> 00:14:09,285
Frankly, I don't feel qualified
to feel any way about you Mr. Kyne.
122
00:14:09,433 --> 00:14:14,797
Other publishers took their sons in and
taught them the business, but not him.
123
00:14:16,685 --> 00:14:19,918
Till I get the hang of things around
here, I'm going to need some help -
124
00:14:19,943 --> 00:14:23,886
not that I don't intend to run things
my own way, from behind the scenes.
125
00:14:24,193 --> 00:14:28,607
I've got an idea. It's a great
idea, if I do say so myself.
126
00:14:28,991 --> 00:14:33,155
I'm going to create a new job...
Executive Director...
127
00:14:33,621 --> 00:14:38,449
someone to do the actual
work. What do you think of it?
128
00:14:39,712 --> 00:14:42,498
It sounds like a step your
father would have approved.
129
00:14:43,006 --> 00:14:47,502
My father is dead. This is my plant now.
130
00:14:47,761 --> 00:14:52,016
I'm going to get myself a gimmick...
something that will set the three of them
131
00:14:52,053 --> 00:14:56,047
scrambling for the new job.
What do you think of that?
132
00:14:59,443 --> 00:15:00,723
I'd rather not say.
133
00:15:01,816 --> 00:15:06,894
When I have them dangling on a string...
when they realize that I hold their
134
00:15:06,919 --> 00:15:12,893
entire lives in my hands...
they won't sneer. Now, tell me...
135
00:15:14,041 --> 00:15:17,327
could even he have thought
up an idea like that?
136
00:15:18,212 --> 00:15:24,819
- No, never! Anything further?
- Not for now.
137
00:15:25,000 --> 00:15:26,708
Then good morning.
138
00:15:38,460 --> 00:15:43,272
"Dear Walter Kyne, before your
father died, I was working on a...
139
00:15:43,365 --> 00:15:48,027
"tie-up with Midwest Television,
which could be immensely profitable.
140
00:15:48,287 --> 00:15:53,449
"During these trying days of mourning,
I have not wanted to disturb you,
141
00:15:53,544 --> 00:15:55,899
but let's have a conference
as soon as possible."
142
00:15:56,004 --> 00:15:58,377
All right, Nancy, get that
out in the morning. That's all.
143
00:15:58,401 --> 00:15:59,377
Yes, sir.
144
00:15:59,418 --> 00:16:02,426
What's Griffith doing in there
for half an hour with Walter Kyne?
145
00:16:04,680 --> 00:16:08,548
- Good night, Miss Donner, Mr. Loving.
- Good night.
146
00:16:09,467 --> 00:16:14,461
Mil... until I clinch this new job, I'm
going to be like a cat on a hot tin roof.
147
00:16:14,486 --> 00:16:16,942
Oh, love, the boys have
gotten out of betting line.
148
00:16:17,061 --> 00:16:20,146
- You're their favorite and mine 6 to 5.
- It's not that simple.
149
00:16:20,448 --> 00:16:23,021
I'm plumping with everything
that I can think of:
150
00:16:23,200 --> 00:16:28,110
This Midwest deal, influence...
I've written dozens of letters.
151
00:16:28,300 --> 00:16:31,918
I'll have the pressure pouring in, but
Kyne keeps harping on this murder thing,
152
00:16:31,943 --> 00:16:34,434
as if solving it could be a factor...
153
00:16:35,131 --> 00:16:37,373
- Now, do you suppose that...
- Why not?
154
00:16:37,717 --> 00:16:40,633
It does credit to a better
brain than Walter Kyne's.
155
00:16:40,738 --> 00:16:43,146
Yes. He'd get a scoop
and an Executive Director,
156
00:16:43,420 --> 00:16:45,982
without the trouble of
making up his little mind.
157
00:16:46,180 --> 00:16:50,052
- There's the guy now!
- Darling, I thought you liked Jon.
158
00:16:50,077 --> 00:16:52,308
Well, there's no room
for love around here now.
159
00:16:52,733 --> 00:16:54,193
What's he doing with Gerald Meade?
160
00:16:54,485 --> 00:16:57,522
Well, darling, solving
the murder's the big thing.
161
00:16:57,614 --> 00:17:00,188
He'd naturally want the
crime-beat man on his team.
162
00:17:00,695 --> 00:17:02,604
So why don't you try and get him on yours?
163
00:17:03,774 --> 00:17:05,980
Griffith's probably
sewing him up right now.
164
00:17:06,081 --> 00:17:09,831
- Gerald would sell his mother and deliver.
- Well then how can I be sure of him?
165
00:17:10,045 --> 00:17:11,670
Do I speak with him?
166
00:17:12,552 --> 00:17:17,037
You go to work on Meade, and if it will
ease your mind, love, in a little while
167
00:17:17,062 --> 00:17:20,853
I'll drop down to the
Dell and feel out Griffith.
168
00:17:22,237 --> 00:17:23,174
Hello?
169
00:17:28,819 --> 00:17:32,354
Better have another, Carlo.
I've been upstairs with Walter Kyne.
170
00:17:32,610 --> 00:17:33,643
A fine man.
171
00:17:33,780 --> 00:17:36,650
He's a weak-spined,
blue-eyed fish, if you ask me!
172
00:17:36,675 --> 00:17:40,009
- I don't know him too well.
- Well, I... make it two.
173
00:17:40,244 --> 00:17:41,489
No, make it three.
174
00:17:41,563 --> 00:17:43,188
- Hello, Jon.
- Hi.
175
00:17:43,375 --> 00:17:46,709
Let Nancy sit between us. You and
I can Indian-wrestle under the bar.
176
00:17:46,878 --> 00:17:49,097
Rye and soda for me, and
I'll have it with music.
177
00:17:49,121 --> 00:17:50,046
Yes, ma'am.
178
00:17:50,047 --> 00:17:54,127
Old man upstairs is roaring like a
lion. "Get me the killer" he yells.
179
00:17:54,301 --> 00:17:57,219
"Use all your best men:
Reporters, editors, feature men,
180
00:17:57,305 --> 00:18:00,426
"photographers, wire service
men, but get me the killer!"
181
00:18:00,768 --> 00:18:04,054
And the man who gets
the killer lands the job.
182
00:18:05,773 --> 00:18:11,083
Who do you bet on, Ed... on Loving?
Loving's smart, Loving's fast,
183
00:18:11,341 --> 00:18:15,904
Loving knows a lot of the right
people, but Loving doesn't get the job.
184
00:18:16,159 --> 00:18:18,829
- No?
- No? I'm going to get it.
185
00:18:18,996 --> 00:18:23,277
Because I spent my youth and $30,000
on whiskey and devotion to the job,
186
00:18:23,565 --> 00:18:26,981
because I have a long-suffering
wife and two swell kids,
187
00:18:27,297 --> 00:18:30,880
and because you and I together are
going to crack this murder thing.
188
00:18:30,968 --> 00:18:35,048
- Mr. Loving wants Ed on his team.
- Yeah? Well, he's not going to have him,
189
00:18:35,180 --> 00:18:37,968
because Ed's going to help me!
And let me get one thing clear...
190
00:18:38,184 --> 00:18:41,600
I don't promise you a thing
for yourself. Not a thing!
191
00:18:41,729 --> 00:18:44,399
Well, let me make myself clear, Jon.
192
00:18:44,553 --> 00:18:47,402
I don't care who gets the job.
For one thing,
193
00:18:47,427 --> 00:18:49,727
I've been off a crime
beat for five years
194
00:18:49,905 --> 00:18:54,532
and for another, I'm not going to get
my throat torn open in any dogfight.
195
00:18:54,619 --> 00:18:59,779
Now, Ed, I've been real nice to you.
Nancy, tell Ed I've been real nice to him.
196
00:18:59,804 --> 00:19:05,429
I knew it all along... just knew I was
going to find a friendly face down here.
197
00:19:05,551 --> 00:19:07,467
Well, my face is friendly.
198
00:19:07,758 --> 00:19:11,838
Hello, you lovely people. I always
see you two together, don't I?
199
00:19:12,221 --> 00:19:13,882
You could do a column about it.
200
00:19:13,969 --> 00:19:17,884
- Oh, I'd love to, darling.
- I'm all for romance.
201
00:19:24,234 --> 00:19:26,026
Have a rum on the rocks or something?
202
00:19:26,154 --> 00:19:28,526
- Well now, thank you, Jon.
- That's right friendly of you.
203
00:19:28,615 --> 00:19:32,483
And I do think we should all be very
friendly during these trying times.
204
00:19:32,619 --> 00:19:34,243
How is Mark?
205
00:19:35,518 --> 00:19:37,640
Oh, he's driving
home you-know-who.
206
00:19:37,728 --> 00:19:39,139
Who is you-know-who?
207
00:19:39,293 --> 00:19:41,500
Jon, Walter...
Walter Kyne.
208
00:19:41,713 --> 00:19:45,164
I understand honest Harry
Kritzer's having dinner there.
209
00:19:45,634 --> 00:19:48,967
One afternoon at the sands
in Vegas, I was taking a swim.
210
00:19:49,304 --> 00:19:52,390
Then I looked up and saw
Dorothy sitting by the pool.
211
00:19:52,976 --> 00:19:57,187
Saw her legs first
- those beautiful, long legs.
212
00:19:57,519 --> 00:20:00,934
So I make kind of a
rough and ready approach.
213
00:20:01,067 --> 00:20:03,641
I'll never forget what she answered
- two words.
214
00:20:03,862 --> 00:20:07,362
- You know what she answered, Harry?
- No, I don't.
215
00:20:08,200 --> 00:20:10,988
I said "window shopping?"
216
00:20:14,001 --> 00:20:17,123
So, three nights later,
I settled for marriage!
217
00:20:17,294 --> 00:20:20,497
Excuse me, sir, Mr. Griffith
is waiting on the telephone.
218
00:20:20,631 --> 00:20:22,789
Oh, I'll take it outside. Excuse me.
219
00:20:28,599 --> 00:20:30,555
Sit next to me, Harry.
220
00:20:32,227 --> 00:20:37,020
I don't like the walls in this room.
Look like they've got sliding panels.
221
00:20:37,107 --> 00:20:38,150
Coward.
222
00:20:38,866 --> 00:20:41,821
He's probably got microphones
behind those pictures, too.
223
00:20:42,131 --> 00:20:44,207
Well, you don't need to kiss me so loud.
224
00:20:46,451 --> 00:20:48,408
When's the next time you
can visit your mother?
225
00:20:48,536 --> 00:20:51,324
Tomorrow night... I hope.
226
00:20:52,712 --> 00:20:55,011
I don't like keeping up
this "mother" business.
227
00:20:55,128 --> 00:20:58,462
Every time I mention "mother" to
Walter, I can't keep a straight face.
228
00:20:58,673 --> 00:21:00,712
How do you think I stand
in the race, darling?
229
00:21:00,925 --> 00:21:06,086
- Oh, far behind, darling, far behind.
- Well, darling, I don't think so.
230
00:21:06,223 --> 00:21:08,015
Let Griffith and Loving
beat their brains out.
231
00:21:08,100 --> 00:21:11,268
What chance have I got - send out
a cameraman? Am I a crime catcher?
232
00:21:11,563 --> 00:21:14,765
Uh-uh. I'll play it my own way...
233
00:21:15,025 --> 00:21:17,266
as Walter's best friend.
234
00:21:17,402 --> 00:21:22,195
- With... Walter's best wife?
- I don't want to involve you.
235
00:21:22,691 --> 00:21:24,435
My hero.
236
00:21:24,827 --> 00:21:27,946
You'll never guess who's
moved in here... Harry Kritzer.
237
00:21:28,331 --> 00:21:29,659
Honest Harry?
238
00:21:29,749 --> 00:21:33,201
Very mysterious.
No name on his mailbox.
239
00:21:33,379 --> 00:21:35,205
Hideaway?
240
00:21:35,339 --> 00:21:39,206
Do you suppose old Harry's got a
blonde stashed away on the side?
241
00:21:39,292 --> 00:21:42,496
If he ever sees me, he'll die.
He's right across the hall from me.
242
00:21:42,720 --> 00:21:46,980
Oh? You know, my darling,
as I was telling you -
243
00:21:47,005 --> 00:21:49,128
Between the fourth and
the fifth highball...
244
00:21:49,855 --> 00:21:54,897
A most intelligent thing to do is
to find out before you get married...
245
00:21:54,985 --> 00:21:56,490
the more the better.
246
00:21:56,560 --> 00:22:00,428
I know quite a lot about you now:
Went to school not far from here,
247
00:22:00,706 --> 00:22:04,371
played stoop ball against the
sidewalls of engine company number 18...
248
00:22:04,396 --> 00:22:07,895
- I didn't mean that kind of knowledge.
- I know you didn't.
249
00:22:08,793 --> 00:22:12,301
I'm just trying to head off a disaster.
You know, you've seen these couples -
250
00:22:12,326 --> 00:22:16,378
there's a big guy, six foot seven, and
a itty bitty girl, four feet eleven.
251
00:22:16,635 --> 00:22:20,217
How do they get along? She doesn't
even know if he likes music,
252
00:22:20,305 --> 00:22:22,382
and she doesn't know if he likes books.
253
00:22:22,407 --> 00:22:24,863
Maybe they get married to find out.
254
00:22:27,956 --> 00:22:31,456
Well, I know about all I'm likely
to find out tonight. Good night.
255
00:22:52,549 --> 00:22:56,761
- Good night.
- Good night. Take care of yourself.
256
00:23:03,818 --> 00:23:07,434
You know... you have very nice legs.
257
00:23:07,565 --> 00:23:11,065
- Aren't you sweet?
- Nice nylon stockings, too.
258
00:23:11,935 --> 00:23:14,007
What holds your stockings up?
259
00:23:14,032 --> 00:23:16,736
There's a lot your mother
should have told you.
260
00:23:17,186 --> 00:23:20,435
I didn't ask my mother. I asked you.
261
00:23:20,997 --> 00:23:25,209
It's... simply a matter
of scientific research.
262
00:23:25,294 --> 00:23:29,126
Hadn't we said good night before
you got interested in my nylons?
263
00:23:29,465 --> 00:23:32,632
I can't remember when I wasn't interested.
264
00:23:33,135 --> 00:23:35,841
Don't you ever wait for
anything to be offered?
265
00:23:37,182 --> 00:23:39,887
OK, I'm open to an offer.
266
00:23:40,478 --> 00:23:44,345
OK... if it'll get rid of you.
267
00:23:53,742 --> 00:23:56,530
- I should have a permit.
- To kiss me?
268
00:23:58,038 --> 00:24:02,333
- Hmm! An explorer's permit.
- Do explorers have to have permits?
269
00:24:02,961 --> 00:24:06,544
They should have, especially when
they're headed for uncharted territory.
270
00:24:09,635 --> 00:24:13,848
Oh, forgive me, angel.
I know not what I say.
271
00:24:15,308 --> 00:24:16,932
Good night, drunk.
272
00:24:30,116 --> 00:24:33,489
- Oh, may I use your telephone?
- How did you get in here?
273
00:24:33,514 --> 00:24:36,070
Temper, temper.
274
00:24:43,047 --> 00:24:47,127
Kyne Enterprises. Oh, yeah, Mr. Mobley.
275
00:24:47,426 --> 00:24:49,336
Oh, get Gerald Meade for me.
276
00:24:50,930 --> 00:24:54,091
Get him out of bed...
anybody's bed.
277
00:24:54,184 --> 00:24:57,186
Mr. Mobley, you're real george.
278
00:25:00,566 --> 00:25:04,611
Gerald... that Felton
girl who was murdered.
279
00:25:04,696 --> 00:25:07,483
Did she have a button lock on her door?
280
00:25:07,730 --> 00:25:11,598
Yeah. Why are you so interested?
281
00:25:11,870 --> 00:25:16,580
Oh, I'm an employee of the society
for the protection of virtuous maidens.
282
00:25:18,962 --> 00:25:22,165
You ought to get a chain lock on that door.
283
00:25:25,510 --> 00:25:27,338
Nancy's mad.
284
00:25:27,888 --> 00:25:32,350
- Too mad to offer a drink?
- If you want one, fix it yourself.
285
00:25:37,565 --> 00:25:40,234
You're darn right Nancy's mad!
286
00:25:40,318 --> 00:25:43,569
Well, that's a fine way
for my future bride to be.
287
00:25:43,697 --> 00:25:47,742
Oh, you don't want a bride. What you
want is an illiterate common law woman.
288
00:25:48,661 --> 00:25:52,409
- Fix you a drink?
- No, I don't want to get drunk with you.
289
00:25:54,042 --> 00:25:55,667
Something else you'd prefer?
290
00:25:56,462 --> 00:25:59,961
That Mildred Donner is
more your type. Try her.
291
00:26:00,090 --> 00:26:06,175
Don't you sit there and tell
me who's my type. Du Verstehst?
292
00:26:10,769 --> 00:26:12,976
You're my type.
293
00:26:15,433 --> 00:26:17,888
Hey, let me tell you
just a little bit more.
294
00:26:19,111 --> 00:26:23,905
Ed loves Nancy very dearly... very much...
295
00:26:24,576 --> 00:26:26,818
Ed wants to marry Nancy.
296
00:26:27,537 --> 00:26:32,247
- You only say that when you've had a few.
- Want me to put it in writing?
297
00:26:36,380 --> 00:26:41,007
How convenient. The great
reporter has no pencil.
298
00:26:41,177 --> 00:26:45,046
- And a darn good reporter, too.
- And a darn good man...
299
00:26:46,476 --> 00:26:51,850
a man with great kindness... maybe
too much, because it dampens ambition.
300
00:26:52,315 --> 00:26:53,264
Ambition?
301
00:26:54,233 --> 00:26:58,018
If you mean by that, I
should join the race, uh-uh.
302
00:26:58,447 --> 00:27:01,697
You watch, Nancy. They'll all break down.
All three of them.
303
00:27:01,784 --> 00:27:03,528
Maybe one won't.
304
00:27:03,620 --> 00:27:04,651
Which one?
305
00:27:05,079 --> 00:27:10,122
The reporter... editor of The Sentinel.
But, still at heart, a reporter...
306
00:27:11,211 --> 00:27:13,702
The one who offered
me nothing for myself.
307
00:27:13,797 --> 00:27:16,467
A good offer...
the offer of a friend.
308
00:27:16,551 --> 00:27:18,543
Then don't you think you ought to help him?
309
00:27:18,844 --> 00:27:20,636
Nobody ever helped me.
310
00:27:20,722 --> 00:27:24,138
- Now, you know that isn't true!
- Amos Kyne did and Griffith would...
311
00:27:24,767 --> 00:27:29,347
and I would.
I'd do anything you asked me.
312
00:27:30,149 --> 00:27:32,604
You better stick to your
friend. He's your type.
313
00:27:34,404 --> 00:27:36,028
You're my type.
314
00:27:47,442 --> 00:27:49,932
Shall we phone my mother and father?
315
00:27:51,131 --> 00:27:55,425
And ask them if you should marry
a reporter without a pencil?
316
00:27:55,510 --> 00:27:57,503
To tell them I'm going to.
317
00:27:59,724 --> 00:28:01,597
Oh, what do you know?
318
00:28:14,073 --> 00:28:18,285
Is that your boss calling? Does he usually
call at three o'clock in the morning?
319
00:28:18,310 --> 00:28:19,507
Every night.
320
00:28:19,828 --> 00:28:24,990
Hello? Yes. Just a moment.
321
00:28:25,168 --> 00:28:26,497
It's for you.
322
00:28:29,589 --> 00:28:30,290
Yes?
323
00:28:30,383 --> 00:28:35,128
Listen, Ed, you're a real good pal
of Lieutenant Kaufman's, aren't you?
324
00:28:35,221 --> 00:28:38,761
Burt? We went to the same
school together, fought together,
325
00:28:39,003 --> 00:28:43,600
dated Janice behind the saxophones
in her father's hockshop. Why?
326
00:28:43,856 --> 00:28:48,185
They've got somebody, Ed.
"Who"? How would I know?
327
00:28:48,324 --> 00:28:49,486
Donald Duck!
328
00:28:49,862 --> 00:28:54,904
The cops won't say, but Kaufman
will meet you at headquarters.
329
00:28:55,401 --> 00:28:59,731
Congratulate me, Jon. I'm engaged.
330
00:29:00,081 --> 00:29:03,202
What do I care, you're engaged.
331
00:29:05,088 --> 00:29:08,587
Now do me a favor,
please and get over there!
332
00:29:09,301 --> 00:29:12,634
What? I already sent Meade,
333
00:29:12,762 --> 00:29:17,057
and where do you think I located
him? In Loving's apartment.
334
00:29:17,184 --> 00:29:18,809
Ed, stick with me!
335
00:29:19,604 --> 00:29:22,391
But it's morning, so it's Tuesday
- my day off!
336
00:29:22,815 --> 00:29:24,808
Are you my friend or not?
337
00:29:26,527 --> 00:29:30,608
All right. I'll handle it just
this one time, but that's all.
338
00:29:31,409 --> 00:29:33,448
All right I said all right.
339
00:29:34,119 --> 00:29:37,323
Ask me, all things
considered, it's just as well.
340
00:29:48,009 --> 00:29:50,216
Hey, what are they doing in there?
341
00:29:50,304 --> 00:29:53,092
Maybe some photographs, maybe
they're questioning already.
342
00:30:00,148 --> 00:30:03,102
Lt. Kaufman is expecting me.
Ed Mobley.
343
00:30:05,828 --> 00:30:07,370
- Hi, Gerald.
- Hiya.
344
00:30:07,969 --> 00:30:12,368
- Hello, Burt.
- Where were you?
345
00:30:13,955 --> 00:30:17,039
- Getting engaged.
- No fooling.
346
00:30:17,251 --> 00:30:20,336
No fooling. Poor Nancy.
347
00:30:21,464 --> 00:30:22,922
Who have they got, Burt?
348
00:30:23,299 --> 00:30:27,547
The janitor of the girl's building, but
you can't use it before general release.
349
00:30:27,679 --> 00:30:28,877
He's in questioning.
350
00:30:29,055 --> 00:30:30,254
Any chance of having a listen?
351
00:30:30,724 --> 00:30:33,975
- Under the same conditions, agreed?
- Sure.
352
00:30:52,706 --> 00:30:56,207
She was killed with your wrench.
Why do you lie to us Pilsky?
353
00:30:56,336 --> 00:30:57,664
I don't lie.
354
00:30:57,840 --> 00:31:01,494
Yes, you do. You told us that you went
355
00:31:01,519 --> 00:31:05,712
to Judith Felton's apartment
at 9 o'clock and found her dead.
356
00:31:05,929 --> 00:31:07,518
But the people at the drugstore tell us
357
00:31:07,543 --> 00:31:11,014
that a package was delivered
to Judith Felton's at 8 o'clock,
358
00:31:11,395 --> 00:31:14,514
that you opened the door and
took the package. Is that right?
359
00:31:16,493 --> 00:31:22,449
Yes... I lied. I... I was frightened.
360
00:31:22,531 --> 00:31:26,695
Then you do admit that you were in
the Felton apartment at 8 o'clock?
361
00:31:26,786 --> 00:31:29,075
Y... Y... yes. But I don't kill!
362
00:31:29,590 --> 00:31:31,879
I leave her when she take bath.
363
00:31:31,904 --> 00:31:34,860
When I come back, I find her dead.
364
00:31:40,176 --> 00:31:42,749
If you went away and came back, George,
365
00:31:42,845 --> 00:31:45,419
how did you get in to her apartment?
366
00:31:45,515 --> 00:31:46,844
I use pass key.
367
00:31:47,108 --> 00:31:49,487
- The door was locked then, huh?
- Yes.
368
00:31:49,728 --> 00:31:52,931
Did anyone else in the
building have a pass key?
369
00:31:53,315 --> 00:31:53,979
No.
370
00:31:54,191 --> 00:31:58,521
Are you trying to tell us that
somebody walked through a locked door
371
00:31:58,613 --> 00:32:00,108
and killed Miss Felton?
372
00:32:01,590 --> 00:32:06,548
I tell truth. I don't
kill her. I find her dead.
373
00:32:09,428 --> 00:32:13,379
All right, Pilsky. We're gonna
start all over from the beginning...
374
00:32:13,776 --> 00:32:18,077
- Hmm! Sun's coming up.
- Not for that old boy.
375
00:32:18,635 --> 00:32:20,378
He didn't do it. You know he didn't.
376
00:32:20,553 --> 00:32:24,869
Four days and no results. Somebody had
to be hauled in for the howling public
377
00:32:24,894 --> 00:32:26,466
for the crime commission.
378
00:32:27,729 --> 00:32:29,935
But you'll let him go
before the day's over.
379
00:32:30,982 --> 00:32:32,725
What makes you so sure?
380
00:32:34,403 --> 00:32:37,653
The evidence against him
is just too pat to be true.
381
00:32:38,783 --> 00:32:42,484
- Use your phone?
- Not for publication.
382
00:32:56,594 --> 00:33:01,387
Hello? Ed? Yeah.
383
00:33:01,892 --> 00:33:05,842
The janitor. If that old boy did
it, I'll sit on the hot seat for him.
384
00:33:07,397 --> 00:33:10,601
Keep Meade on it. I'm gonna
go home and get some sleep.
385
00:33:26,670 --> 00:33:29,623
- Your pin-ups?
- Yeah.
386
00:33:30,172 --> 00:33:34,005
All very murdered. I was just
looking for possible points
387
00:33:34,093 --> 00:33:36,170
of comparison with this Felton case.
388
00:33:36,596 --> 00:33:40,049
- Look for a young guy, Burt.
- Now you're guessing.
389
00:33:41,686 --> 00:33:45,269
Pre-meditated murder by a
psycho, and not his first.
390
00:33:45,481 --> 00:33:47,023
He didn't leave any fingerprints.
391
00:33:47,149 --> 00:33:51,018
So he wore gloves. Anyone who
leaves fingerprints nowadays,
392
00:33:51,113 --> 00:33:53,355
even on his first
homicide, can't even read!
393
00:33:53,491 --> 00:33:56,160
You know how much stuff
is written and published
394
00:33:56,243 --> 00:33:58,450
for the instruction of
potential lawbreakers?
395
00:33:58,537 --> 00:34:00,577
Take the so-called comic books.
396
00:34:00,665 --> 00:34:03,204
Sold to kids of all
ages, in drugstores and -
397
00:34:07,423 --> 00:34:09,380
Why do you say this killer is young?
398
00:34:09,509 --> 00:34:10,457
The lipstick bit.
399
00:34:10,968 --> 00:34:13,256
There's nothing new about
that. Several years ago -
400
00:34:13,345 --> 00:34:14,970
I know, I know.
401
00:34:15,097 --> 00:34:18,764
What was it? "Catch me,
I can't control myself"?
402
00:34:18,852 --> 00:34:21,425
This one only changed
the lyrics, "Ask mother."
403
00:34:21,938 --> 00:34:23,766
He's a mama's boy unless I'm mistaken.
404
00:34:23,941 --> 00:34:25,980
Well the message may have been a blind.
405
00:34:27,028 --> 00:34:28,692
I think it's an impertinence.
406
00:34:28,797 --> 00:34:33,944
He's laughing at the police
by leaving clues but no fingerprints.
407
00:34:34,119 --> 00:34:35,281
Keep on talking.
408
00:34:35,370 --> 00:34:37,908
In the old days, before you
were above writing about crime,
409
00:34:37,998 --> 00:34:39,622
you and I used to be pretty good together.
410
00:34:41,336 --> 00:34:44,254
What do you think of the
dresser drawers found open?
411
00:34:44,881 --> 00:34:47,419
We searched the janitor's
room. We didn't find anything.
412
00:34:47,550 --> 00:34:49,460
Of course, we don't know
that anything was stolen.
413
00:34:53,141 --> 00:34:54,800
Kaufman.
414
00:34:55,726 --> 00:34:56,841
Homicide.
415
00:34:57,562 --> 00:35:02,818
Details?
Female... White... 21...
416
00:35:03,714 --> 00:35:09,319
Unmarried...
Schoolteacher... Strangled...
417
00:35:09,449 --> 00:35:10,826
3 o'clock this morning.
418
00:35:10,952 --> 00:35:13,572
- He entered through the bedroom window.
- Oh.
419
00:35:13,662 --> 00:35:15,371
- Do we have any lipstick?
- Lipstick?
420
00:35:15,498 --> 00:35:18,416
This joker's much too clever ever
to leave lipstick again, Burt.
421
00:35:23,466 --> 00:35:25,539
She got her hands in his hair.
We took a couple
422
00:35:25,551 --> 00:35:27,332
strands from underneath
her fingernails.
423
00:35:27,469 --> 00:35:28,383
That's good.
424
00:35:33,477 --> 00:35:36,561
- Anything?
- No. He must have used gloves.
425
00:35:46,616 --> 00:35:49,617
He left the book here
deliberately, to laugh at you, Burt.
426
00:35:49,703 --> 00:35:52,028
And every time,
he'll leave a different clue.
427
00:35:56,002 --> 00:35:59,418
Look, Sergeant, I've been here
over nine hours and all I've got
428
00:35:59,505 --> 00:36:03,753
is what every other reporter in town has,
a general release on the Felton murder.
429
00:36:06,470 --> 00:36:10,137
Tim, you and I have been
friends for a long time.
430
00:36:11,894 --> 00:36:15,144
I need something special,
something for myself.
431
00:36:15,982 --> 00:36:18,769
Is this case any good against Pilsky?
432
00:36:19,652 --> 00:36:23,437
- Pretty good.
- Be specific, Tim. I won't forget you.
433
00:36:24,450 --> 00:36:25,730
Well...
434
00:36:28,579 --> 00:36:31,331
If I was to tell you
why we picked Pilsky up -
435
00:36:31,415 --> 00:36:32,613
Yeah, why, why?
436
00:36:34,461 --> 00:36:37,498
You... you wouldn't say
where you got it, promise?
437
00:36:37,756 --> 00:36:38,420
Promise.
438
00:36:38,841 --> 00:36:42,376
Well, Pilsky's fingerprints
are on the murder weapon.
439
00:36:42,761 --> 00:36:46,179
Oh, thanks, Tim. You won't regret it.
440
00:36:47,309 --> 00:36:52,469
Wait. Wait till I'm out of the office.
441
00:37:07,246 --> 00:37:08,907
Mark Loving, sister, quick.
442
00:37:13,254 --> 00:37:17,715
Mark? I've got the inside
dope on the Felton case.
443
00:37:17,842 --> 00:37:23,964
What? Great work, Gerald!
That's great. Hold the line.
444
00:37:27,645 --> 00:37:31,512
Phone in to Walter Kyne that
I've cracked the Lipstick Case.
445
00:37:34,068 --> 00:37:37,438
Joe, Gerald Meade's on my line, take it.
446
00:37:39,533 --> 00:37:41,241
Give me the call on Mr. Loving's line.
447
00:37:47,333 --> 00:37:51,498
Don't give it to the copy desk
- feed it directly to the wire.
448
00:37:54,841 --> 00:37:56,004
Tom!
449
00:38:00,681 --> 00:38:02,721
- Good morning.
- 'Morning, Mark.
450
00:38:03,768 --> 00:38:05,227
Want to make a bet?
451
00:38:05,353 --> 00:38:06,183
On what?
452
00:38:06,604 --> 00:38:08,930
On me.
453
00:38:09,232 --> 00:38:10,477
Hold it, Jim.
454
00:38:13,404 --> 00:38:14,685
- Cal, who sent it?
- Washington.
455
00:38:14,781 --> 00:38:16,322
Break them. Give this four bells.
456
00:38:18,701 --> 00:38:22,402
Mark. Can I believe this?
You cracked the lipstick case?
457
00:38:22,497 --> 00:38:24,205
I certainly did!
458
00:38:40,434 --> 00:38:43,519
We've got a scoop on the
biggest story in the country.
459
00:38:43,604 --> 00:38:45,846
- Did this go over the wire?
- For God's sake!
460
00:38:46,023 --> 00:38:47,351
Oh, I'll be...
461
00:38:48,526 --> 00:38:50,352
Mark's killing it.
462
00:38:50,444 --> 00:38:53,019
Killing it? What's the matter with him?
463
00:39:00,998 --> 00:39:02,029
That idiot Meade.
464
00:39:03,250 --> 00:39:05,624
What's the matter with you?
Wasn't he quoting a cop?
465
00:39:05,712 --> 00:39:07,954
Nothing a cop says outside
a courtroom is privileged.
466
00:39:08,298 --> 00:39:09,543
What do you mean by that?
467
00:39:09,758 --> 00:39:12,961
Anything you repeat, no matter from what
source, if it doesn't sit under oath,
468
00:39:13,094 --> 00:39:14,174
you'd better stand on it yourself.
469
00:39:14,346 --> 00:39:15,591
What do you mean?
470
00:39:15,681 --> 00:39:18,885
He means if the old man
didn't kill her, it's libel.
471
00:39:20,061 --> 00:39:20,926
Libel!
472
00:39:22,606 --> 00:39:26,685
You could be sued. Any newspaper that
uses your wire service could be sued.
473
00:39:26,902 --> 00:39:29,228
Well, what kind of a wire
service are you running, anyway?
474
00:39:29,321 --> 00:39:30,650
I killed it, didn't I?
475
00:39:31,658 --> 00:39:34,231
You two don't have to
quote me the law of libel!
476
00:39:34,368 --> 00:39:35,566
Of course not, Walter.
477
00:40:06,321 --> 00:40:11,482
You missed something, Ed.
Meade almost scuttled Loving.
478
00:40:11,868 --> 00:40:15,487
Look... Read that copy, Jon.
479
00:40:23,548 --> 00:40:26,833
Sensational. Can you substantiate?
480
00:40:26,968 --> 00:40:32,759
Nope. May be a pipe dream. But if it
is, Kaufman and I are smoking together.
481
00:40:32,934 --> 00:40:36,053
In any case, I'm going on the
air with it in five minutes.
482
00:40:36,437 --> 00:40:40,731
Hold it for the paper, Ed. Let me
hit the street with it by seven.
483
00:40:41,026 --> 00:40:42,603
Use it in your night show.
484
00:40:44,738 --> 00:40:46,316
Is that what you want?
485
00:40:46,866 --> 00:40:49,708
I want to get the job, that's the idea.
486
00:40:49,744 --> 00:40:53,444
And to get the job, I'll stick
a knife in anybody I have to.
487
00:40:53,831 --> 00:41:00,084
Oh, I know, I know! If I had any ethics
left, I'd give it to Loving for his wire.
488
00:41:05,219 --> 00:41:08,969
OK, OK. I'll take it to him myself.
489
00:41:16,607 --> 00:41:20,687
Don't call yourself my
boy, Meade! You're through!
490
00:41:20,861 --> 00:41:22,689
Meade, you're through.
491
00:41:23,239 --> 00:41:26,608
When you killed that bulletin, you
promised your clients a new lead.
492
00:41:26,910 --> 00:41:28,404
I think that will do it.
493
00:41:30,080 --> 00:41:31,079
Great scot!
494
00:41:31,091 --> 00:41:34,126
You got one minute lead
on Mobley's telecast.
495
00:41:37,296 --> 00:41:42,457
That boyfriend of yours who set out to help
me, just put your boss a mile out in front.
496
00:41:52,063 --> 00:41:56,476
Mr. Walter Kyne presents the
distinguished author, columnist,
497
00:41:56,609 --> 00:41:59,814
and Pulitzer prize winner Edward Mobley...
498
00:41:59,947 --> 00:42:02,901
in his perceptive
analysis of the day's news...
499
00:42:03,033 --> 00:42:04,702
It's already on the wire.
Wait till you hear.
500
00:42:04,738 --> 00:42:06,042
Ladies and gentlemen,
501
00:42:06,078 --> 00:42:09,665
at approximately 3 a. m.
This morning, in our city,
502
00:42:09,702 --> 00:42:12,288
one human being took the life of another.
503
00:42:12,419 --> 00:42:16,251
In our world, acts of violence are not rare
504
00:42:16,423 --> 00:42:19,092
and so my excuse,
or I should say, my reason
505
00:42:19,218 --> 00:42:21,543
for giving importance
to this particular story,
506
00:42:21,637 --> 00:42:24,888
is my hope that the killer
may be listening to me.
507
00:42:24,974 --> 00:42:31,144
For I believe that in his progress
to the chair, or to the insane asylum,
508
00:42:31,273 --> 00:42:36,314
that he has reached a way station,
where his sick and warped ego
509
00:42:36,446 --> 00:42:40,194
demands to be fed with the milk of self
- importance.
510
00:42:40,783 --> 00:42:44,996
And so, with the consent of
a very good friend of mine,
511
00:42:45,033 --> 00:42:47,285
who is by way of being a
remarkable criminologist,
512
00:42:47,374 --> 00:42:49,996
but who has also asked that
his name not be credited,
513
00:42:50,086 --> 00:42:54,249
I'm going to say a few things
to the killer, face to face.
514
00:42:54,382 --> 00:42:59,968
Item one: Mr. Unknown, you will
not for very long remain unknown.
515
00:43:01,640 --> 00:43:04,441
Item two: You're husky.
516
00:43:04,477 --> 00:43:08,406
Strong enough to have choked
to death this morning
517
00:43:08,510 --> 00:43:12,056
a poor school teacher
by the name of Laura Kelly.
518
00:43:12,255 --> 00:43:13,299
Item three:
519
00:43:14,467 --> 00:43:20,784
You are the same killer who,
last week, bludgeoned to death
520
00:43:20,869 --> 00:43:27,241
a girl by the name of Judith Felton.
You are the Lipstick Killer.
521
00:43:27,377 --> 00:43:31,327
Item four: You read the
so-called comic books.
522
00:43:31,465 --> 00:43:37,337
Item five: You have dark brown hair.
A few strands of your hair were found
523
00:43:37,429 --> 00:43:39,886
beneath the fingernails
of your latest victim.
524
00:43:39,975 --> 00:43:44,850
Item six: You're young. A crime
lab examination of your hair reveals
525
00:43:44,938 --> 00:43:48,557
that you're approximately
twenty years of age.
526
00:43:48,734 --> 00:43:52,863
Item seven: You're a mama's boy.
527
00:43:53,323 --> 00:43:58,364
Item eight: The normal feeling of love
that you should have toward your mother
528
00:43:58,453 --> 00:44:03,031
has been twisted into hatred, for her -
529
00:44:03,124 --> 00:44:04,370
And all of her sex.
530
00:44:05,378 --> 00:44:06,291
Item nine...
531
00:44:07,672 --> 00:44:09,415
May I come in, dear?
532
00:44:13,469 --> 00:44:16,506
I heard the television,
so I knew you were up.
533
00:44:16,640 --> 00:44:20,590
It must have been about four o'clock
when I heard you come in this morning.
534
00:44:20,728 --> 00:44:25,853
I don't like working so late. - Oh,
I know. I know how it is with my boy -
535
00:44:25,941 --> 00:44:31,816
studying all day, working all night, and
I know how difficult it has been for you
536
00:44:31,949 --> 00:44:35,152
ever since your father left us.
537
00:44:35,243 --> 00:44:36,868
He's not my father!
538
00:44:36,954 --> 00:44:39,491
And you're not my mother.
539
00:44:39,581 --> 00:44:43,627
- Robert, don't say that.
- Why not? It's true, isn't it?
540
00:44:43,753 --> 00:44:46,458
When you adopted me, you
wanted a girl, didn't you?
541
00:44:46,590 --> 00:44:48,555
And he wanted a boy!
542
00:44:48,591 --> 00:44:50,335
Well neither one of you
was satisfied, were you?
543
00:44:50,427 --> 00:44:55,090
I remember once when I was eight
years old... eight years old...
544
00:44:55,183 --> 00:44:57,222
I was helping you dust the house...
545
00:44:57,351 --> 00:45:00,851
and that woman from across
the street came over and said,
546
00:45:00,938 --> 00:45:05,019
"My, my. "And you said, "Yes, I know...
547
00:45:05,109 --> 00:45:07,400
"he's exactly like
a little girl, isn't he?"
548
00:45:07,989 --> 00:45:09,862
But, Robert, you are my son
549
00:45:10,575 --> 00:45:12,117
and my daughter
550
00:45:12,327 --> 00:45:14,996
and all the children I ever
wished I could have had.
551
00:45:16,039 --> 00:45:18,327
Don't you love your mother?
552
00:45:24,882 --> 00:45:28,583
Shall I show you how much I love my mother?
553
00:45:33,225 --> 00:45:38,101
Oh I have such a good boy!
Now I'll bring your breakfast.
554
00:45:38,230 --> 00:45:40,057
You must be awfully hungry.
555
00:45:49,367 --> 00:45:54,196
And so, with this most happy
news about my personal life,
556
00:45:54,290 --> 00:45:58,419
I close until I visit with
you again at eleven tonight.
557
00:45:58,879 --> 00:46:00,670
In the meantime,
558
00:46:00,755 --> 00:46:04,171
for any further developments in
the case of the Lipstick Killer,
559
00:46:04,259 --> 00:46:07,124
read The Sentinel,
which hits your newsstands
560
00:46:07,136 --> 00:46:10,014
with its first edition
at seven this evening.
561
00:46:10,391 --> 00:46:12,717
Did he really get Nancy's OK on this thing?
562
00:46:14,520 --> 00:46:18,103
He must have. Here, he's bringing her.
563
00:46:18,524 --> 00:46:20,352
- Hi.
- Burt, it's good to see you.
564
00:46:20,610 --> 00:46:22,604
Hello, Burt, Nancy, Jon.
565
00:46:22,738 --> 00:46:24,245
Tonight, we celebrate.
566
00:46:24,281 --> 00:46:26,109
Thanks, Jon. It's worth getting engaged.
567
00:46:26,534 --> 00:46:29,405
That was a pretty flossy
telecast your boy did.
568
00:46:29,537 --> 00:46:31,613
Now we've got to get
ready for the next step.
569
00:46:31,706 --> 00:46:34,162
What do you mean? Haven't you
talked this over with Nancy?
570
00:46:34,250 --> 00:46:36,208
Well the next step is to the Altar.
571
00:46:36,461 --> 00:46:38,538
I'm talking it over with her now.
572
00:46:39,048 --> 00:46:43,775
Nancy, you got the idea of my telecast,
to insult the killer.
573
00:46:44,065 --> 00:46:45,108
Yes.
574
00:46:46,180 --> 00:46:49,965
He'll get mad at me and anybody I like.
575
00:46:50,143 --> 00:46:56,016
And if I know his maniacal mind, sooner
or later, he'll come out after the bait.
576
00:46:56,609 --> 00:46:57,723
Well...
577
00:47:01,948 --> 00:47:03,460
What bait?
578
00:47:05,498 --> 00:47:09,861
Ha! Some nice girl,
like the other two.
579
00:47:10,832 --> 00:47:12,078
Who?
580
00:47:13,586 --> 00:47:18,083
Ha Ha! A nice girl with
a button lock on her door.
581
00:47:22,846 --> 00:47:25,848
You mean someone named Nancy?
582
00:47:27,101 --> 00:47:30,933
Nancy, you see that man in the
dark suit sitting over at the bar?
583
00:47:31,773 --> 00:47:34,145
His name is Mike O'Leary.
584
00:47:34,234 --> 00:47:38,482
He's a plain clothes man
from Burt's department.
585
00:47:38,656 --> 00:47:42,700
From now on, he'll be your shadow.
He'll take you to the Red Cross tonight,
586
00:47:42,784 --> 00:47:46,829
and then home to your room, and
make sure the door is locked.
587
00:47:46,955 --> 00:47:52,165
Mornings, you won't leave until he's
there to go with you, wherever you go
588
00:47:52,254 --> 00:47:55,041
you'll be safer than you've
ever been in your life before.
589
00:47:56,717 --> 00:47:59,718
That's the kind of guy
you're going to marry.
590
00:47:59,886 --> 00:48:02,640
I like the kind of guy I'm going to marry.
591
00:48:02,849 --> 00:48:06,183
I told him last night I'd do anything
for him. I won't let him down.
592
00:48:06,895 --> 00:48:10,810
All right, darling, I'll do
it. Let's keep it in the family.
593
00:48:11,316 --> 00:48:16,275
I was pretty sure you'd say yes, but
it's a good thing you did say yes,
594
00:48:16,406 --> 00:48:20,735
because the announcement of our
engagement is already in the paper.
595
00:48:37,929 --> 00:48:40,386
What do you know?
Nancy engaged to Ed Mobley.
596
00:48:40,475 --> 00:48:43,510
That nice little secretary of
yours, darling.
597
00:48:44,479 --> 00:48:48,856
- I wonder what she's got.
- Well, apparently she's got Mobley.
598
00:48:48,942 --> 00:48:52,608
- No, I mean to attract a man.
- Oh, forget them love. I'm worried.
599
00:48:52,863 --> 00:48:55,401
- About the job?
- What else?
600
00:48:56,366 --> 00:49:00,447
Kyne worries me. He was humiliated
today in front of everyone
601
00:49:00,537 --> 00:49:01,569
and it's my fault.
602
00:49:01,664 --> 00:49:04,333
You made up for it with the scoop
on Mobley on his own telecast.
603
00:49:04,416 --> 00:49:08,546
Let me tell you the facts of life.
That break was an accident of timing.
604
00:49:08,839 --> 00:49:13,584
If only I had Mobley in my
corner. He knows the right people.
605
00:49:13,677 --> 00:49:15,006
- Don't you?
- Oh, sure.
606
00:49:15,429 --> 00:49:18,846
I know the head waiter of the
Stork, and the Colonnier, and "21",
607
00:49:18,934 --> 00:49:21,222
and I know the fellow at the dog
show, and the fellow at the dog show
608
00:49:21,311 --> 00:49:23,553
knows the fellow at the horse show,
and the fellow at the horse show
609
00:49:23,647 --> 00:49:26,102
knows the people at the Waldorf, and
the people at the Waldorf know me,
610
00:49:26,274 --> 00:49:28,314
but Mobley knows the right cops.
611
00:49:28,402 --> 00:49:30,691
Well, Mark, talk to him.
612
00:49:31,823 --> 00:49:36,035
It might do a great deal of harm
if he rats about it to Griffith.
613
00:49:39,831 --> 00:49:43,331
Dear heart. You want me to
have this job, don't you?
614
00:49:43,419 --> 00:49:45,293
You don't have to ask that.
615
00:49:46,214 --> 00:49:47,708
Then go to Mobley for me.
616
00:49:48,757 --> 00:49:49,789
What?
617
00:49:49,884 --> 00:49:52,375
You. You know him much better than I do.
618
00:49:52,845 --> 00:49:56,097
You could tell him about
me. He'd listen to you.
619
00:49:57,226 --> 00:49:58,768
I've seen him look at you.
620
00:49:58,936 --> 00:50:01,094
You've seen him look at me, huh?
621
00:50:01,355 --> 00:50:05,104
Those eyes of his. Have
you ever noticed those eyes?
622
00:50:05,484 --> 00:50:08,901
Oh, yes. Yes, I've noticed them.
623
00:50:10,700 --> 00:50:14,779
- Might be fun.
- That's my baby.
624
00:50:15,913 --> 00:50:20,872
Well, all right, I know what to say, but
how far do I have to go to get it said?
625
00:50:21,003 --> 00:50:25,629
Mildred, we're adults. I
love you very completely.
626
00:50:25,716 --> 00:50:29,761
Anything you might do for me will
make me love you all the more.
627
00:50:29,845 --> 00:50:32,800
Thank you. And I love you too, Mark.
628
00:50:42,234 --> 00:50:45,437
And I certainly hope that you and
Miss Liggett will be very happy.
629
00:50:45,989 --> 00:50:51,232
I thank you, Carlo. What day is this?
630
00:50:51,536 --> 00:50:56,245
- Still Tuesday. Ha! My day
off. The rest is killing me.
631
00:50:56,541 --> 00:50:59,709
Nancy's night at the Red Cross.
I could sure use some first aid.
632
00:51:07,470 --> 00:51:09,925
Hello. Hello, hello.
633
00:51:12,518 --> 00:51:14,925
- Want to buy me a drink?
- Carlo.
634
00:51:15,062 --> 00:51:17,814
- Yes, sir.
- Champagne cocktail, brandy float.
635
00:51:17,940 --> 00:51:18,722
Yes, ma'am.
636
00:51:19,108 --> 00:51:21,516
- Going someplace?
- No.
637
00:51:21,903 --> 00:51:24,394
- Well, you're all dressed up?
- Like it?
638
00:51:24,865 --> 00:51:27,190
- Very much.
- Well, thank you.
639
00:51:27,534 --> 00:51:31,288
Now I don't think I'm going anywhere
now that I've found you down here.
640
00:51:31,325 --> 00:51:32,450
Oh, well!
641
00:51:32,664 --> 00:51:35,785
Sometimes I'm in a mood
where I love to speak my mind.
642
00:51:35,877 --> 00:51:38,795
Tonight's one of those times. All right?
643
00:51:39,131 --> 00:51:42,085
Sure, it's all right. I
think it's spectacular.
644
00:51:42,176 --> 00:51:46,505
Well, you're a pretty spectacular
guy. Believe me, I've known a couple.
645
00:51:46,639 --> 00:51:48,264
Skol.
646
00:51:52,145 --> 00:51:54,470
Where's your gentlemen friend?
647
00:51:54,605 --> 00:51:56,599
Where's your lady friend?
648
00:51:57,317 --> 00:51:58,859
Cigarette?
649
00:52:25,515 --> 00:52:27,176
Pretty?
650
00:52:27,267 --> 00:52:28,809
Mmmmm.
651
00:52:30,479 --> 00:52:32,353
Would I like?
652
00:52:33,649 --> 00:52:36,318
Ahh... you can see it all later!
653
00:52:37,111 --> 00:52:40,030
- Oh, come on.
- No, no, no, I said later.
654
00:52:54,464 --> 00:52:57,002
Ahh... I said later.
655
00:52:57,717 --> 00:52:59,425
- Another drink, please.
- Yes ma'am.
656
00:53:00,261 --> 00:53:02,171
One for Mr. Mobley, too.
657
00:53:03,933 --> 00:53:07,883
You know, Mark was terribly
upset by that libel business.
658
00:53:08,271 --> 00:53:11,391
Don't worry, Mildred,
your man may get in yet.
659
00:53:12,025 --> 00:53:14,397
Darling, I wish you wouldn't
keep calling him 'my man'.
660
00:53:14,486 --> 00:53:16,609
Well he's certainly not mine!
661
00:53:17,406 --> 00:53:22,614
Why don't you come clean and
confess. He sent you here.
662
00:53:22,704 --> 00:53:25,870
All right. He sent me. But I hope
it isn't going to spoil things
663
00:53:25,956 --> 00:53:27,202
'cause I wanted to come.
664
00:53:27,877 --> 00:53:31,827
- Quite a messenger.
- Oh you men, you're all polygamists.
665
00:53:32,089 --> 00:53:34,758
- You too, Mobley.
- Faithful as the day is long.
666
00:53:34,967 --> 00:53:38,881
Mmm, if it's the shortest day of the
year. But where would women like me be
667
00:53:38,971 --> 00:53:40,431
if it wasn't for men like you.
668
00:53:41,767 --> 00:53:46,144
And if I take another drink
tonight, I'll fall flat on my face.
669
00:53:52,527 --> 00:53:55,648
- Where's Mrs. Kyne?
- She had to go to her mother's, Sir.
670
00:53:55,990 --> 00:53:56,737
Again?
671
00:53:58,702 --> 00:54:04,289
Well, anyway... tonight I wouldn't
trade places with anyone.
672
00:54:04,708 --> 00:54:10,166
Look at that... a doll of a front page.
Best front page in the city.
673
00:54:11,091 --> 00:54:13,048
That's very nice, Sir.
674
00:54:15,262 --> 00:54:21,016
But I need a right hand man.
Today I made an ass of myself.
675
00:54:22,186 --> 00:54:24,559
Who shall it be?
676
00:54:27,191 --> 00:54:35,615
Loving... or Griffith... Kritzer?
677
00:54:38,371 --> 00:54:44,326
Mr. Loving: A conniver. Well,
every business needs a conniver.
678
00:54:44,754 --> 00:54:48,916
That Griffith: A doll of a front page.
679
00:54:49,717 --> 00:54:51,709
Harry Kritzer?
680
00:54:55,014 --> 00:55:02,013
But which is your best,
Walter? Your b-e-s-t?
681
00:55:06,694 --> 00:55:08,734
Mr. Walter Kyne's residence.
682
00:55:11,199 --> 00:55:13,192
It's Mrs. Kyne, sir.
683
00:55:14,118 --> 00:55:15,364
Hello.
684
00:55:16,121 --> 00:55:21,626
Hello, darling. I'm still at mother's.
685
00:55:27,091 --> 00:55:28,919
Oh, what's the matter, Walter?
686
00:55:29,135 --> 00:55:32,968
Every once in a while I'd like to come
home and find you here, that's all.
687
00:55:34,225 --> 00:55:36,632
I thought you're mother
didn't have a telephone.
688
00:55:36,935 --> 00:55:39,427
I came down to the drugstore especially.
689
00:55:44,068 --> 00:55:47,604
I bought a copy of the final
edition. It's wonderful!
690
00:55:47,740 --> 00:55:50,148
I thought Harry's artwork was marvelous!
691
00:55:50,284 --> 00:55:53,984
All right, all right, I like it.
Now, how soon can you get here?
692
00:55:55,623 --> 00:55:58,660
Then I'll have Steven meet
you at the door in his BVD.
693
00:56:00,337 --> 00:56:03,291
Okay, me then!
694
00:56:07,010 --> 00:56:12,516
Well! He swallowed it. The question
is, even for Walter, how long will he?
695
00:56:12,684 --> 00:56:14,842
Long enough, let's hope.
696
00:56:14,936 --> 00:56:17,060
How long is long enough?
697
00:56:17,189 --> 00:56:19,514
Long enough for me to get the job.
What else?
698
00:56:20,066 --> 00:56:25,228
For me to get you the job. That's
what you mean, isn't it, darling?
699
00:56:26,199 --> 00:56:29,615
However you want to put it, let's not fail.
700
00:56:34,666 --> 00:56:37,621
- And then?
- And then?
701
00:56:39,088 --> 00:56:41,626
What are you in this for, Harry?
702
00:56:41,757 --> 00:56:46,336
Is getting the big job like the
satisfaction of having the big man's wife?
703
00:56:46,429 --> 00:56:48,304
What's gotten in to you?
704
00:56:50,392 --> 00:56:53,310
And what am I in it for?
705
00:56:53,938 --> 00:56:58,315
If you're just a pastime,
sweet, you're a very risky one.
706
00:57:02,489 --> 00:57:06,701
With all I have, what is it I want?
707
00:57:11,290 --> 00:57:15,704
Only the pleasure of paying
back the man who bought me
708
00:57:16,129 --> 00:57:19,629
by giving his most prized
possession to someone else?
709
00:57:20,008 --> 00:57:21,966
What are you driving at, Dorothy?
710
00:57:23,178 --> 00:57:29,052
Just this. If I make my
husband give you the big prize,
711
00:57:29,268 --> 00:57:32,804
you won't be Walter's man, you'll be mine
712
00:57:32,939 --> 00:57:39,608
and you'll do as I say,
and you won't forget that. Ever.
713
00:57:40,907 --> 00:57:45,984
OK, kitten, if you want to imagine
yourself as Lady Macbeth or someone -
714
00:57:46,162 --> 00:57:48,241
You just think about that, darling,
715
00:57:50,553 --> 00:57:55,202
because I can always
still change my mind.
716
00:58:00,804 --> 00:58:06,475
OK, kitten, we'll think...
717
00:58:09,772 --> 00:58:11,231
and think...
718
00:58:15,152 --> 00:58:17,525
and think.
719
00:58:22,077 --> 00:58:24,782
- I told him I'd come right home.
- Uh uh.
720
00:58:24,955 --> 00:58:28,539
Don't you want me to do
my utmost in your behalf?
721
00:58:33,215 --> 00:58:36,963
Oh, it's probably the drugstore.
That was the last bottle of scotch.
722
00:58:47,605 --> 00:58:48,886
The drugstore!
723
00:58:51,359 --> 00:58:52,902
One moment please.
724
00:59:17,555 --> 00:59:18,586
Keep the change.
725
01:02:07,910 --> 01:02:12,158
Carlo... Carlo... we are
discussing romance, you know.
726
01:02:12,457 --> 01:02:16,159
Of course, I gather we are at the stage
of discussing it in rather general terms.
727
01:02:16,253 --> 01:02:17,250
Well it's something to think about.
728
01:02:18,214 --> 01:02:23,090
You see, Carlo, there is
also a physical side to love
729
01:02:23,470 --> 01:02:26,506
and some women are more
demanding than others...
730
01:02:27,850 --> 01:02:30,342
and some automobiles are blue.
731
01:02:30,979 --> 01:02:35,771
Oh, darling, look. Of course
I want Mark to prosper.
732
01:02:35,858 --> 01:02:38,349
I want him to be happy,
I want him to get the job
733
01:02:38,444 --> 01:02:43,653
but if you should ask me if it's love,
I'd simply have to say I just don't know.
734
01:02:43,868 --> 01:02:48,779
- So, when do you expect to find out?
- Maybe an hour or so.
735
01:02:48,956 --> 01:02:52,243
- Carlo's going to have a busy night!
- Just Carlo?
736
01:02:53,670 --> 01:02:59,874
- Oh, Ed, look, am I attractive to you?
- I'm in no condition...
737
01:03:00,260 --> 01:03:06,715
but, objectively speaking,
I would say yes... very.
738
01:03:08,269 --> 01:03:09,681
Come on to my place.
739
01:03:09,855 --> 01:03:17,566
I would also say that I am a poisonous,
black-souled, weak-kneed so-and-so.
740
01:03:18,115 --> 01:03:22,111
- So, all right. Your cigarettes.
- Thank you.
741
01:03:31,129 --> 01:03:34,129
Oh, I'm sorry, very sorry.
742
01:03:41,389 --> 01:03:43,854
That's the famous Ed
Mobley, isn't it?
743
01:03:43,866 --> 01:03:46,764
Well he's something
less than famous tonight.
744
01:03:47,396 --> 01:03:50,600
The woman he's with
- they're engaged?
745
01:03:51,233 --> 01:03:54,188
- What's her name? Liggett or something?
- No that's somebody quite different.
746
01:03:57,491 --> 01:04:00,611
- Oh, I hate kissing in taxis.
- You do?
747
01:04:00,827 --> 01:04:02,739
It's much more fun at home.
748
01:04:02,751 --> 01:04:05,869
Didn't realize you
graded things like that.
749
01:04:06,000 --> 01:04:07,199
Sure you do.
750
01:04:08,253 --> 01:04:13,627
- Your hands are cold.
- Madame, I'm blasted.
751
01:04:15,052 --> 01:04:18,800
The movement of this cab
is slightly inimical to me.
752
01:04:19,391 --> 01:04:23,804
The fact that I can say inimical
proves just how drunk I am.
753
01:04:24,479 --> 01:04:28,643
Oh, darling, I'm not just
doing this for Mark, believe me.
754
01:04:29,860 --> 01:04:33,120
And not out of any
sense of honesty or
755
01:04:33,132 --> 01:04:36,991
principle or faithfulness
to the bride-to-be.
756
01:04:37,118 --> 01:04:38,493
I have to tell you this:
757
01:04:39,620 --> 01:04:44,414
I didn't get any sleep last night
and darn little the night before,
758
01:04:44,543 --> 01:04:48,327
on top of everything else,
I'm getting sick.
759
01:04:49,072 --> 01:04:53,500
I'm human
and human beings get sick.
760
01:04:53,594 --> 01:04:59,432
Oh. I'll make you some coffee when
we get home. I make marvelous coffee.
761
01:05:01,937 --> 01:05:04,855
I wonder what the nice
people are doing tonight.
762
01:05:28,091 --> 01:05:32,089
- Did Mildred tell you, too?
- Mildred's told everybody.
763
01:06:02,963 --> 01:06:05,371
You ought to feel pretty good today.
764
01:06:07,676 --> 01:06:10,464
Your telecast was picked up by
nearly every paper in the country.
765
01:06:11,263 --> 01:06:15,476
Of course, if this whole idea of
provoking the killer doesn't pan out,
766
01:06:15,727 --> 01:06:17,637
you and I are going to
be way out on a limb.
767
01:06:18,230 --> 01:06:20,222
My limb got sawed off.
768
01:06:22,318 --> 01:06:28,191
- How is Mildred?
- Everybody knows my business.
769
01:06:28,616 --> 01:06:30,740
Nancy too?
770
01:06:30,828 --> 01:06:33,152
I called her in the middle of the night.
771
01:06:33,371 --> 01:06:37,037
- You wanted her to be the first to know?
- I wanted her to hear it from me.
772
01:06:37,126 --> 01:06:39,166
Everybody around here
has heard it from Mildred.
773
01:06:40,338 --> 01:06:41,381
Oh?
774
01:06:41,589 --> 01:06:46,423
She says she now she knows you won
the Pulitzer Prize for writing.
775
01:06:46,719 --> 01:06:48,677
It's not the way it was at all.
776
01:06:48,847 --> 01:06:51,518
If I'm going to be hung,
don't hang me for a sheep.
777
01:06:52,727 --> 01:06:54,684
Come to papa and confess.
778
01:06:59,817 --> 01:07:02,570
I'm going to check with the
accounting department for this.
779
01:07:08,160 --> 01:07:09,620
Mr. Loving's office.
780
01:07:09,704 --> 01:07:12,194
I'm getting pretty sick of
your unreasonable attitude.
781
01:07:19,089 --> 01:07:23,835
Ha! Ha! Ha! Walter Kyne
will fall off his chair.
782
01:07:25,888 --> 01:07:28,261
- Congratulations, Mr. Loving.
- Thank you, my dear.
783
01:07:28,392 --> 01:07:30,016
Make three copies of it.
784
01:07:43,742 --> 01:07:46,300
Send copies to Griffith
and to Kritzer. I'll
785
01:07:46,312 --> 01:07:48,653
show the original to
Walter Kyne myself.
786
01:08:03,805 --> 01:08:06,380
- To Mr. Griffith and Mr. Kritzer.
- OK.
787
01:08:08,060 --> 01:08:10,730
Mr. Loving's office.
788
01:08:21,325 --> 01:08:23,117
Walter Kyne's not in. Try him at home.
789
01:08:24,578 --> 01:08:26,322
Listen.
790
01:08:26,580 --> 01:08:31,291
"M. Loving, Kyne Enterprises,
New York, New York. Dear Mark,
791
01:08:31,420 --> 01:08:34,871
Your scoop on Mobley's sensational
telecast was the clincher.
792
01:08:35,675 --> 01:08:39,173
You may regard the Midwest
Television deal as closed.
793
01:08:39,428 --> 01:08:41,421
Congratulations, Joe."
794
01:08:41,889 --> 01:08:44,595
- You're kidding?
- That's what you get for being honest.
795
01:08:47,187 --> 01:08:51,351
- Where's Mobley?
- I saw him go out a little while ago.
796
01:08:52,275 --> 01:08:55,194
Try Mobley at the Dell. If
he isn't there, find him.
797
01:09:03,330 --> 01:09:08,456
Operator, is the Kyne residence
still busy? He would be.
798
01:09:09,587 --> 01:09:11,627
Well, I'm glad you're
pleased, Walter, very glad.
799
01:09:12,257 --> 01:09:18,295
Fine. Fine, Mark. Yeah. Yeah, we'll talk
about it when I come down to the office.
800
01:09:18,596 --> 01:09:19,711
Right.
801
01:09:47,212 --> 01:09:50,913
- What is it, dear?
- Ahh, I'll tell you later.
802
01:09:52,718 --> 01:09:55,090
Something worries my boy.
803
01:09:55,429 --> 01:09:59,642
- That darn race I started.
- Oh that.
804
01:10:02,478 --> 01:10:06,642
Come over here, darling,
you're so far away.
805
01:10:08,318 --> 01:10:09,896
I wish I could help you.
806
01:10:10,279 --> 01:10:15,440
Don't you worry your
- Empty little head? Fix my back, huh?
807
01:10:17,162 --> 01:10:21,658
and tell me your troubles.
Are you sorry you started it?
808
01:10:21,875 --> 01:10:26,337
Of course not. I just don't
want to make a mistake.
809
01:10:26,547 --> 01:10:28,207
You won't.
810
01:10:28,299 --> 01:10:33,294
That was Mark Loving on the phone.
He brought in the big Midwest deal.
811
01:10:33,763 --> 01:10:36,006
It was worth half a million
if it's worth a penny.
812
01:10:36,308 --> 01:10:41,100
Just when I'd begun to favor Griffith,
much as I personally dislike him.
813
01:10:42,273 --> 01:10:45,807
Don't tell me you've narrowed
it down to just those two?
814
01:10:46,026 --> 01:10:50,274
Ah, they're whaling away but it's the
third one that worries me the most.
815
01:10:50,448 --> 01:10:55,954
- Did I hurt you?
- No darling, nobody has such hands.
816
01:10:56,080 --> 01:10:57,360
How do you know?
817
01:10:57,664 --> 01:11:01,913
- Well, certainly not from experience.
- That I'd bet on.
818
01:11:02,629 --> 01:11:03,904
Harry worries you?
819
01:11:03,916 --> 01:11:07,006
Doesn't he want the job?
He's doing nothing.
820
01:11:07,092 --> 01:11:10,924
He's just going on, doing his
work. Well, maybe it's just as well.
821
01:11:11,012 --> 01:11:12,758
I'd more or less ruled him out.
822
01:11:12,891 --> 01:11:14,800
Oh, I wouldn't do that.
823
01:11:17,771 --> 01:11:23,856
I mean, angel... well, now, isn't
that exactly the kind of man you want?
824
01:11:24,194 --> 01:11:28,275
Did Harry write that speech for you?
Have you got a crush on this guy?
825
01:11:28,407 --> 01:11:32,108
Did I tell you to invite him? You're
the one that brings him around.
826
01:11:32,245 --> 01:11:33,989
Oh, I'm kidding, of course.
827
01:11:35,373 --> 01:11:37,330
Oh I'll get it. Your hands are oily.
828
01:11:38,419 --> 01:11:42,368
Funny thought though. That
duck legged so- and-so Kritzer.
829
01:11:42,715 --> 01:11:45,253
If the reason he doesn't seem
to be fighting like the others
830
01:11:45,384 --> 01:11:47,923
is because he's working on me through you.
831
01:11:48,054 --> 01:11:49,963
Ha! Too funny for words.
832
01:11:50,264 --> 01:11:53,634
Oh if that's the office, I'm
staying here until late afternoon.
833
01:11:53,811 --> 01:11:54,557
Hello?
834
01:11:54,728 --> 01:11:59,224
Dorothy, the roof's falling in
down here. I've got to see you.
835
01:11:59,608 --> 01:12:04,853
Why, Mary, darling. How nice, but I can't.
836
01:12:05,949 --> 01:12:09,034
Walter's staying home with me today.
837
01:12:10,079 --> 01:12:12,580
Oh, I'd love to go to the fashion show,
838
01:12:13,352 --> 01:12:16,829
but Walter won't be going
to the office till late afternoon.
839
01:12:17,086 --> 01:12:21,713
Get away. Use the old excuse.
Everything depends on it.
840
01:12:21,884 --> 01:12:25,169
I know I promised and it
would be divine, but...
841
01:12:25,929 --> 01:12:29,050
Call me in an hour or so, huh? Bye.
842
01:12:30,184 --> 01:12:32,557
I wouldn't mind too much,
if it'd be fun for you.
843
01:12:32,937 --> 01:12:37,315
Oh, you don't want me to leave you
for a silly old fashion show, do you?
844
01:12:37,442 --> 01:12:39,400
Buy things I shouldn't have.
845
01:12:39,653 --> 01:12:44,031
- Oh go ahead, dear, I like you
to have nice things. I insist.
846
01:12:46,202 --> 01:12:51,789
Well, darling, when you put it that
way... if you insist, of course I'll do it.
847
01:13:02,470 --> 01:13:08,141
Haven't you located Mobley yet?
Try Lt. Kaufman, maybe he'll know.
848
01:13:24,453 --> 01:13:26,659
The whole thing was snide scheme.
849
01:13:26,746 --> 01:13:30,032
You made Burt call me for lunch
just so you could get at me.
850
01:13:30,960 --> 01:13:38,043
Nancy... look, I may be a snide,
but doubled in spades, but I didn't...
851
01:13:39,135 --> 01:13:40,844
There comes Burt now.
852
01:13:43,516 --> 01:13:45,308
- Hello.
- Hello.
853
01:13:47,019 --> 01:13:50,773
- Lover's spat?
- Yeah, she just called me a dirty name.
854
01:13:50,810 --> 01:13:53,312
And not in a very admiring tone of voice.
855
01:13:53,443 --> 01:13:57,774
- Oh. Eddie was a bad boy, huh?
- In a taxi cab.
856
01:13:57,949 --> 01:14:00,190
I told you I got sick and went home.
857
01:14:00,326 --> 01:14:02,533
Ask him what he was doing
there in the first place.
858
01:14:02,620 --> 01:14:05,324
- All right. What were you
doing there in the first place?
859
01:14:05,414 --> 01:14:10,576
I was seduced. Loving sicked his dame
on me and I had a few drinks with her,
860
01:14:10,671 --> 01:14:15,629
let her kiss me, told her no on Mark Loving
and dropped her off in front of her hotel.
861
01:14:15,718 --> 01:14:19,668
I didn't even go up for a cup
of coffee, invited though I was.
862
01:14:19,806 --> 01:14:21,349
Another time?
863
01:14:22,976 --> 01:14:24,387
- Yes Sir?
- Brandy.
864
01:14:24,978 --> 01:14:27,267
And a hemlock for me.
865
01:14:29,900 --> 01:14:34,693
Burt, it's not what he did or didn't
do. He just doesn't know how to say no.
866
01:14:34,823 --> 01:14:36,946
The night we got engaged, I
told him he didn't mean it.
867
01:14:37,034 --> 01:14:39,109
He said I was crazy,
the next thing I know he'd
868
01:14:39,121 --> 01:14:41,121
caressing Mildred Donner
in a common carrier.
869
01:14:41,158 --> 01:14:43,410
If he wants to marry me,
why does he have to do that?
870
01:14:43,582 --> 01:14:46,454
Stop the world and let me off.
871
01:14:46,920 --> 01:14:50,206
Work your beef out later, children.
Let's get down to business.
872
01:14:50,423 --> 01:14:52,842
Now, what I've got to say is
strictly over this table, all right?
873
01:14:52,879 --> 01:14:53,921
Sure.
874
01:14:54,261 --> 01:14:58,675
OK. The two murders and maybe some before -
875
01:14:58,808 --> 01:15:01,808
Were not committed by the same man.
876
01:15:01,936 --> 01:15:06,598
They were. We went back in
to the Felton girl's place
877
01:15:06,690 --> 01:15:10,273
and found a strand of hair which
matches the hair from the second murder.
878
01:15:10,486 --> 01:15:12,172
Well, what's the big secret?
879
01:15:12,184 --> 01:15:14,900
I've got more for you.
Equally confidential.
880
01:15:15,075 --> 01:15:20,070
Everything is confidential.
Except me and Mildred.
881
01:15:20,456 --> 01:15:26,626
Now, listen, we've run onto the
record a string of unsolved burglaries,
882
01:15:26,713 --> 01:15:31,838
committed months ago. We think that's
the way this boy may have started.
883
01:15:32,010 --> 01:15:36,673
He steals only ladies' things,
from lone, unprotected girls.
884
01:15:36,808 --> 01:15:38,351
This guy's a real nut on dames.
885
01:15:38,435 --> 01:15:41,435
And this description
begins to fit Mobley?
886
01:15:46,234 --> 01:15:48,046
Now, Burt, I know our next move.
887
01:15:48,150 --> 01:15:51,361
Put Nancy's picture in the paper
or use her on the telecast.
888
01:15:51,616 --> 01:15:54,403
Oh, no you don't.
Print Mildred's picture. Use her.
889
01:15:54,577 --> 01:15:56,238
- Where are you going?
- Out of your life.
890
01:16:33,495 --> 01:16:35,903
I'm so much in love with her, it aches.
891
01:16:36,082 --> 01:16:38,490
Well, she's loved you too.
She's treated you right.
892
01:16:38,586 --> 01:16:39,996
But I didn't do anything!
893
01:16:40,420 --> 01:16:42,543
You figure if you're drunk
it doesn't count, huh?
894
01:16:42,840 --> 01:16:44,879
I only kissed her.
895
01:16:46,093 --> 01:16:48,549
The way I just heard it, she kissed you.
896
01:16:48,637 --> 01:16:50,843
A few more times around, this is
going to be a pretty lively story.
897
01:16:50,931 --> 01:16:54,016
- But I didn't do anything!
- The next time, you will.
898
01:16:54,185 --> 01:16:57,685
- There won't be a next time.
- Well, tell Nancy that.
899
01:16:58,023 --> 01:16:59,647
Yeah, tell Nancy.
900
01:16:59,732 --> 01:17:00,848
For you, Mr. Mobley.
901
01:17:01,151 --> 01:17:07,356
Aha! She made it just as far as the
first telephone booth. Strong woman.
902
01:17:07,533 --> 01:17:10,959
Honey, I graciously accept your apology.
903
01:17:10,995 --> 01:17:13,701
Griffith: Don't honey
me miserable character!
904
01:17:14,416 --> 01:17:18,166
Now Mark Loving is being
congratulated from Tokyo to Timbuktu!
905
01:17:18,921 --> 01:17:24,082
Only a miracle can help me now. And you
dillydallying in a haunt of pleasure.
906
01:17:24,302 --> 01:17:26,045
Somebody has to have some fun.
907
01:17:30,058 --> 01:17:31,553
That was Griffith.
908
01:17:34,938 --> 01:17:38,105
Burt, let's think.
909
01:17:38,942 --> 01:17:45,563
His crimes have become more and
more frequent, more violent, bolder.
910
01:17:47,244 --> 01:17:50,447
He's got to have a new element
in them now, something, uh...
911
01:17:50,539 --> 01:17:53,457
- What do you mean?
- Well, something daring.
912
01:17:54,044 --> 01:17:56,879
Every murder he committed
has always been at night.
913
01:17:57,006 --> 01:18:00,955
- Yeah.
- Then maybe...
914
01:18:01,177 --> 01:18:02,339
What?
915
01:18:02,803 --> 01:18:06,673
- The next one will be in cold daylight.
- You think, uh...
916
01:18:06,891 --> 01:18:11,803
Yeah, that figures, the final insolence...
broad daylight.
917
01:18:11,938 --> 01:18:14,227
You mean something that
will satisfy his urge to kill
918
01:18:14,358 --> 01:18:17,275
but at the same time
increase his excitement.
919
01:18:17,360 --> 01:18:20,528
Burt! Maybe to kill even
while she's guarded.
920
01:18:34,630 --> 01:18:36,576
Are you going to be in for
the next hour, Miss Liggett?
921
01:18:36,681 --> 01:18:37,723
All day.
922
01:18:38,301 --> 01:18:40,522
Then I'll get some lunch
down at the corner.
923
01:18:40,553 --> 01:18:42,157
The phone number's written on this card.
924
01:18:42,388 --> 01:18:43,822
If you change your mind,
be sure and let me know.
925
01:18:43,953 --> 01:18:44,996
I promise.
926
01:19:36,490 --> 01:19:37,534
Who is it?
927
01:19:38,326 --> 01:19:39,368
Ed.
928
01:19:48,045 --> 01:19:51,130
Go away, Mobley, leave me alone.
929
01:19:53,675 --> 01:19:55,716
Please, leave me alone.
930
01:20:30,800 --> 01:20:32,342
What do you want?
931
01:20:37,726 --> 01:20:39,350
Get out of here!
932
01:20:39,519 --> 01:20:40,633
Get away!
933
01:21:09,802 --> 01:21:13,752
Help! Help!
934
01:21:13,890 --> 01:21:16,677
Oh, let me in, please! Close the door!
935
01:21:29,824 --> 01:21:33,074
Stop him! He's the
killer, stop him, stop him!
936
01:21:54,477 --> 01:21:58,937
- Nancy! Are you all right?
- He ran around the corner. Hurry! Hurry!
937
01:21:59,148 --> 01:22:00,394
Get up there!
938
01:24:51,381 --> 01:24:54,964
Charles, you'd be amazed! This
phone hasn't stopped ringing.
939
01:24:55,177 --> 01:24:57,928
I never knew I had so many friends.
940
01:24:58,346 --> 01:25:02,844
Of course, it doesn't necessarily mean the
big thing. At least, that's not official.
941
01:25:07,566 --> 01:25:08,720
Well?
942
01:25:08,732 --> 01:25:12,229
We got him, Jon.
We've really got him.
943
01:25:12,405 --> 01:25:16,569
- Are we ahead of the other papers?
- Absolutely alone. An hour, maybe more.
944
01:25:16,701 --> 01:25:18,455
Kaufman's got him here
now, in a precinct
945
01:25:18,467 --> 01:25:20,485
station. He's questioning
him in the next room.
946
01:25:21,498 --> 01:25:24,915
If this gets on the police ticker,
it'll be in every newsroom in town.
947
01:25:25,044 --> 01:25:28,744
Don't worry, Jon. It will get on
as an ordinary Precinct arrest,
948
01:25:28,839 --> 01:25:30,962
man molesting a woman. Happens every day.
949
01:25:31,050 --> 01:25:34,751
No paper will bother to pick
that up. Everything worked.
950
01:25:34,929 --> 01:25:37,337
This guy knocked on Nancy's
door, she wouldn't open it,
951
01:25:37,432 --> 01:25:40,184
so he went after another woman on the
same floor. We got it from O'Leary.
952
01:25:40,686 --> 01:25:43,521
We're two hours away from deadline.
Have you got enough to go with now?
953
01:25:43,773 --> 01:25:45,906
Yes. I've got murder, Jon.
954
01:25:46,218 --> 01:25:50,143
The Kelly girl and the Felton girl
and at least two more before then.
955
01:25:51,532 --> 01:25:52,776
How are you going to handle it?
956
01:25:53,116 --> 01:25:57,660
Extra! What do you think I'd do?
And I don't want any boy scout talk
957
01:25:57,788 --> 01:26:00,077
about Loving and the wire
service or anything else.
958
01:26:00,416 --> 01:26:02,954
Anybody who's going to read this
will read it in The Sentinel.
959
01:26:03,252 --> 01:26:07,037
Hold on. I'll give it
to Healey. Jim! Jim! Jim!
960
01:26:08,550 --> 01:26:10,792
Healey! Healey! Jim!
961
01:26:14,181 --> 01:26:16,340
Take this right here. Make it quick.
962
01:26:25,109 --> 01:26:30,236
I want the front page down to the
fold. Remake anything you've set.
963
01:26:30,366 --> 01:26:33,402
We're putting out an extra.
Don't say anything about this.
964
01:26:34,036 --> 01:26:35,412
Circulation.
965
01:26:41,253 --> 01:26:43,412
Benny? Jon Griffith.
966
01:26:43,923 --> 01:26:45,796
How many trucks you got handy?
967
01:26:45,966 --> 01:26:50,842
Extra. And I want it spread midtown
- Grand Central, Penn station, bus terminal
968
01:26:50,930 --> 01:26:56,721
by 5:30. Keep everybody's
yap shut. First run, 20,000.
969
01:26:58,105 --> 01:27:00,513
Jon? What about pictures?
970
01:27:00,691 --> 01:27:04,391
We don't need pictures. Kritzer doesn't
have to know anything about this.
971
01:27:04,736 --> 01:27:09,400
Mrs. Kyne, please. She left that long ago?
972
01:27:09,785 --> 01:27:11,160
Well, thank you, Steven.
973
01:27:21,756 --> 01:27:23,879
Nothing more about the women he molested?
974
01:27:23,967 --> 01:27:26,822
That's all up till now.
Just says she's a Mrs. Charles Smith.
975
01:27:30,339 --> 01:27:31,382
I'll call you back.
976
01:27:47,034 --> 01:27:49,193
He should get another
Pulitzer prize for this.
977
01:27:49,579 --> 01:27:51,904
Ha! You may get something too.
978
01:27:56,795 --> 01:28:00,959
I want the first paragraph 8 columns, 14
- point bold.
979
01:28:01,258 --> 01:28:03,168
Nobody moves from this desk.
980
01:28:09,100 --> 01:28:12,221
- I wish I could trust you, Mildred.
- Can't you, darling?
981
01:28:12,437 --> 01:28:15,273
To get the woman's angle,
how could I use a sob story.
982
01:28:15,441 --> 01:28:19,024
But I'm not your type of
man. You'd give it to Loving.
983
01:28:19,278 --> 01:28:21,900
- I'm an independent operator now.
- Really?
984
01:28:22,198 --> 01:28:24,986
Certainly. Can't complain,
he turned me loose.
985
01:28:25,160 --> 01:28:29,786
OK, I'll take a chance. There's a bonus in
it for you, if you deliver it just to me.
986
01:28:29,915 --> 01:28:32,584
Very little Mark could
do about it now, anyway.
987
01:28:32,919 --> 01:28:34,117
Is it a good story, Jon?
988
01:28:34,337 --> 01:28:37,504
It's a pip. Do you know
where Nancy Liggett lives?
989
01:28:37,674 --> 01:28:38,623
Nancy? Sure.
990
01:28:38,800 --> 01:28:43,094
Go up and interview the woman
you'll find there. Right now.
991
01:28:43,179 --> 01:28:45,968
Right now. Thank you.
992
01:28:53,482 --> 01:28:56,318
- Where have you been?
- Here and there, darling.
993
01:28:56,777 --> 01:28:58,937
You're the only one who
hasn't congratulated me.
994
01:28:59,073 --> 01:29:01,314
Well, uh, congratulations.
995
01:29:02,910 --> 01:29:05,697
- You still my baby?
- You ought to know that, love.
996
01:29:18,760 --> 01:29:22,011
Thanks so much.
Mrs. Smith is very grateful.
997
01:29:22,087 --> 01:29:23,136
That's all right.
998
01:29:23,433 --> 01:29:26,372
Thanks very much for the sweater.
I'll return it as soon as possible.
999
01:29:26,436 --> 01:29:27,479
No hurry, Mrs. Smith.
1000
01:29:27,562 --> 01:29:32,271
Mrs. Liggett... we... we trust in
your discretion, Mrs. Smith and I.
1001
01:29:32,359 --> 01:29:35,645
And again, thanks so much.
Thank you, Miss Liggett.
1002
01:29:38,658 --> 01:29:42,324
Well, well, if it isn't Mrs. Walter Kyne.
1003
01:29:42,746 --> 01:29:45,866
Oh, no, you can't be the woman
I'm supposed to interview?
1004
01:29:45,999 --> 01:29:48,538
- Did Mark Loving put you up to this?
- No, darling, he didn't.
1005
01:29:48,669 --> 01:29:50,248
I think you're lying.
1006
01:29:50,338 --> 01:29:52,580
Well, Harry, I don't
particularly care what you think.
1007
01:29:52,840 --> 01:29:57,835
- Who is this, Harry?
- Mildred Donner, from the office.
1008
01:29:59,890 --> 01:30:02,474
Oh well.
Why don't we all have a drink.
1009
01:30:02,486 --> 01:30:05,514
Good idea.
Harry looks as though he needs one.
1010
01:30:05,646 --> 01:30:10,273
And then let's talk. After all, we
are three civilized human beings.
1011
01:30:10,359 --> 01:30:12,767
- Well of course. Let's talk.
- Yeah, let's.
1012
01:30:19,369 --> 01:30:22,869
Nancy... can't we let Bygones be bygones?
1013
01:30:26,420 --> 01:30:31,461
You got your story, Ed.
A big scoop. So be happy.
1014
01:30:31,758 --> 01:30:37,001
But I don't want to be
happy. I want... Nancy? Nancy?
1015
01:30:41,269 --> 01:30:43,013
She hung up on me.
1016
01:30:44,314 --> 01:30:49,474
Here's the full text of the confession.
Would you like to have it exclusive?
1017
01:30:49,736 --> 01:30:53,272
- Thanks Burt.
- You can buy me a drink sometime.
1018
01:30:53,408 --> 01:30:56,279
Sure. Sure.
1019
01:30:59,163 --> 01:31:01,073
There she blows!
1020
01:31:05,129 --> 01:31:07,825
I haven't given very much thought
to my successor.
1021
01:31:08,269 --> 01:31:12,010
I'll keep you in mind.
OK. Bye.
1022
01:31:12,636 --> 01:31:13,752
Extra?
1023
01:31:28,280 --> 01:31:31,400
Joe! Get this on the wire!
1024
01:31:38,165 --> 01:31:43,077
- Neat but nasty.
- Want to make a bet, Mark?
1025
01:31:43,212 --> 01:31:46,748
- On what?
- On me.
1026
01:31:50,720 --> 01:31:54,422
- Jon, how long have you had this story?
- It seemed a lifetime.
1027
01:31:54,517 --> 01:31:56,308
Well, then, why didn't
give it to the newswire?
1028
01:31:56,395 --> 01:31:57,812
- You can ask that again.
- I did.
1029
01:31:57,849 --> 01:31:59,110
After you'd extra'd!
1030
01:31:59,147 --> 01:32:04,105
Your newswire still had it first, and your
New York paper was on the street with it.
1031
01:32:04,277 --> 01:32:07,564
Hey, maybe you were right.
That was good thinking, Jon.
1032
01:32:07,657 --> 01:32:10,113
It's every man for himself around
here now, if it was good thinking.
1033
01:32:10,368 --> 01:32:12,111
And another thing, why haven't
we got a picture of the murderer?
1034
01:32:12,245 --> 01:32:16,408
- Where was Kritzer when this thing broke?
- I don't know. You can ask him.
1035
01:32:22,715 --> 01:32:25,965
Well, I'd like a little
more cooperation around here.
1036
01:32:26,845 --> 01:32:29,798
Well, where have you
been? Don't you work here?
1037
01:32:29,972 --> 01:32:33,177
- You'll find out where I've been.
- I've got something to take up with you.
1038
01:32:35,771 --> 01:32:37,977
Harry, who do you think you're talking to?
1039
01:32:38,107 --> 01:32:41,807
And right now, Walter, in the
privacy of your office. Come on.
1040
01:32:46,283 --> 01:32:49,118
Mildred... what's going on?
1041
01:32:51,121 --> 01:32:52,200
Well?
1042
01:32:52,789 --> 01:32:55,791
Oh, about the race,
daring, I have news for you.
1043
01:32:56,044 --> 01:32:57,539
You've both come in a tie...
1044
01:32:57,629 --> 01:32:59,668
for second place.
1045
01:33:20,612 --> 01:33:25,773
Laugh it off, Jon. You're still the best
newspaper editor in the United States.
1046
01:33:26,077 --> 01:33:28,698
Of the Sentinel, anyway.
1047
01:33:29,080 --> 01:33:30,325
And the whole thing figures.
1048
01:33:30,623 --> 01:33:35,416
- How can you say that? Harry Kritzer.
- I say it figures.
1049
01:33:35,504 --> 01:33:38,422
There you were, you and
Loving, batting your brains out.
1050
01:33:39,550 --> 01:33:43,548
Loving brings in a television
contract worth half a million dollars.
1051
01:33:43,804 --> 01:33:47,221
You and I cook up a
scheme to catch the killer.
1052
01:33:47,392 --> 01:33:52,849
Endangering, let us not forget, the life
of one of the most wonderful gals in the -
1053
01:34:05,537 --> 01:34:07,910
Carlo, can you find me a
sandwich and a glass of milk?
1054
01:34:07,998 --> 01:34:09,243
You bet I can.
1055
01:34:17,342 --> 01:34:22,051
Continue. You get a great scoop.
1056
01:34:22,389 --> 01:34:27,099
The text of the full confession
of the killer, exclusively
1057
01:34:27,186 --> 01:34:32,346
and who ends up on top?
Honest Harry Kritzer.
1058
01:34:32,441 --> 01:34:37,604
Because all the time he's been
playing footsie with Walter's wife.
1059
01:34:38,491 --> 01:34:44,494
- Shall I continue?
- Continue. I love to be sad.
1060
01:34:44,580 --> 01:34:49,576
Harry Kritzer gets the job,
Walter Kyne gets his wife back
1061
01:34:49,669 --> 01:34:53,003
and Mildred Donner ends up
with a syndicated column.
1062
01:34:53,215 --> 01:34:56,549
And you and I each get a $1,000 bonus.
1063
01:35:01,099 --> 01:35:05,228
They'll have to mail mine to me. I've quit.
1064
01:35:08,440 --> 01:35:13,602
- You don't mean that.
- Kyne has my letter of resignation.
1065
01:35:13,697 --> 01:35:16,484
Am I supposed to laugh this off, too?
1066
01:35:16,825 --> 01:35:20,324
Every man protects what
is most precious to him.
1067
01:35:20,996 --> 01:35:23,783
It gets down to the squeeze, Jon.
That's it.
1068
01:35:24,249 --> 01:35:30,004
Big men protect big things and
little men like Walter Kyne -
1069
01:35:30,674 --> 01:35:32,582
Don't stop on my account.
1070
01:35:35,095 --> 01:35:39,094
May I, uh, serve all you
gentlemen a drink on the house?
1071
01:35:39,225 --> 01:35:42,095
- I'll have mine straight, Carlo.
- Yes, Sir.
1072
01:35:42,311 --> 01:35:44,684
I invited you to to continue, Mobley.
1073
01:35:47,609 --> 01:35:51,024
Little men protect what they
consider most precious, too.
1074
01:35:51,112 --> 01:35:54,696
Walter Kyne. What does he have to protect?
1075
01:35:54,950 --> 01:36:01,487
His face. Appearances. The appearances
that go along with $10 million
1076
01:36:01,624 --> 01:36:04,626
and a smile from the owner
of the Cub Room and...
1077
01:36:04,837 --> 01:36:08,965
a beautiful, faithless wife.
1078
01:36:09,717 --> 01:36:15,422
Feel sorry for him, Jon. He carries
his own cross on his 2 x 4 shoulders.
1079
01:36:15,973 --> 01:36:19,639
He knows just how little he really is.
1080
01:36:27,277 --> 01:36:29,354
I'll mail you a postcard, Jon.
1081
01:36:37,372 --> 01:36:39,828
Ed! Ed!
1082
01:36:46,048 --> 01:36:49,382
I don't know why we had to travel
all night to get married in Florida.
1083
01:36:49,469 --> 01:36:50,797
They do it nice here.
1084
01:36:55,434 --> 01:36:58,329
- You folks read the local paper?
- That's just why we came.
1085
01:36:58,354 --> 01:37:00,473
- Thank you.
- I'll take it.
1086
01:37:03,818 --> 01:37:08,979
My, my, they have it here, too:
"I Confess: Full Text of the...
1087
01:37:09,074 --> 01:37:13,238
"the New York Lipstick Killer's
Confession, by Edward Mobley."
1088
01:37:13,370 --> 01:37:16,206
- So I confess.
- And listen to this...
1089
01:37:16,290 --> 01:37:18,449
"Mr. Walter Kyne announces the appointment
1090
01:37:18,543 --> 01:37:19,788

Look, I haven't had any sleep for two
nights, honey. Get your things off.
1093
01:37:24,967 --> 01:37:26,626
It's your wedding day.
You want to look nice.

"Announces the appointment

and associated enterprises."
1097
01:37:35,603 --> 01:37:37,015
Ahh, you're making that up.
1098
01:37:37,147 --> 01:37:39,056
"And announces that Mr. Harry Kritzer -

1101
01:37:48,910 --> 01:37:50,819
to friendly nations all over the globe."
1102
01:37:50,954 --> 01:37:53,575
Little boys grow up. You never know.
1103
01:37:53,665 --> 01:37:55,574
"At the same time, Mr. Kyne
disclosed the appointment...

of personal assistant to Mr. Kyne."
1106
01:38:01,925 --> 01:38:05,174
Now, that's better. Romance is not dead.

"Consistent with the
policy of rewarding merit

nightgown. And a shorty, too.
1109
01:38:10,852 --> 01:38:15,099
- Put it down, darling, it's daylight.
- And you can see right through it.

Where?
1114
01:38:30,998 --> 01:38:34,083
My, my, how warm it gets down here.
1115
01:38:35,420 --> 01:38:36,701
They can't do this!
1116
01:38:36,964 --> 01:38:38,790
Wait till I see him.
1117
01:38:39,216 --> 01:38:41,090
I'll tell him a few things.
1118
01:38:42,094 --> 01:38:44,667
What does he think? Everybody
has to jump when he whistles?
1119
01:38:53,356 --> 01:38:55,230
I did something for you this morning.
1120
01:38:56,109 --> 01:38:58,861
I know you did. You made
an honest man out of me.
1121
01:39:01,657 --> 01:39:06,817
I couldn't buy you that explorers' license
darling. They never heard of such a thing.
1122
01:39:11,543 --> 01:39:15,588
The best I could do was a hunting license.
1123
01:39:17,842 --> 01:39:21,626
That would be Mr. Kyne. Was there
something you wanted to say to him?
