1
00:01:20,722 --> 00:01:22,394
Oh, Mr. Conway.
2
00:01:22,641 --> 00:01:24,791
- What are you doing in here?
- Well, I--
3
00:01:25,060 --> 00:01:28,575
- Where's Miss Eastman?
- She just stepped out for a minute.
4
00:01:28,897 --> 00:01:32,207
So did I but you stepped in.
What are you after in here?
5
00:01:32,526 --> 00:01:34,881
Nothing. Nothing, Mr. Conway,
honestly.
6
00:01:35,154 --> 00:01:37,384
Miss Eastman, why would
Miss Calvert be in my office?
7
00:01:37,656 --> 00:01:40,045
I just straightened out your desk
for you.
8
00:01:40,326 --> 00:01:41,725
There wasn't anything
to do outside.
9
00:01:41,952 --> 00:01:43,704
I thought while you were out
of your office,
10
00:01:43,954 --> 00:01:45,626
I'd just straighten out your desk
for you.
11
00:01:45,873 --> 00:01:47,704
How long has Miss Calvert
been employed by us?
12
00:01:47,959 --> 00:01:49,392
A year. Almost a year.
13
00:01:49,627 --> 00:01:51,345
- What department before this?
- Accounting.
14
00:01:51,587 --> 00:01:53,225
No contact with Warner Griffith?
15
00:01:54,799 --> 00:01:55,788
Warner who?
16
00:01:56,301 --> 00:01:58,815
Miss Calvert wouldn't have had
anything to do with Mr. Griffith.
17
00:01:59,095 --> 00:02:01,131
But perhaps we'd better send her
back to Accounting.
18
00:02:01,389 --> 00:02:03,505
Well, perhaps we'd better.
19
00:02:11,066 --> 00:02:14,581
Hello, Warner?
Warner, it's me, Rose.
20
00:02:14,903 --> 00:02:16,780
I've got them, Warner.
The papers you wanted.
21
00:02:19,033 --> 00:02:21,103
All right, I'll wait for you.
22
00:02:27,917 --> 00:02:30,477
Period, paragraph.
23
00:02:31,963 --> 00:02:35,797
We'll be able to take care
of the new order of business in Texas
24
00:02:36,134 --> 00:02:39,683
as soon as the annual stockholders'
meeting is out of the way.
25
00:02:40,388 --> 00:02:44,381
That is providing that I'm re-elected,
of course.
26
00:03:18,511 --> 00:03:21,025
Miss Eastman, I've turned my files
and this desk inside out.
27
00:03:21,306 --> 00:03:23,615
Now there's no doubt that
Rose Calvert has managed to steal
28
00:03:23,892 --> 00:03:27,362
the confidential Texas documents.
These are of great importance--
29
00:03:27,687 --> 00:03:29,405
Who are you?
30
00:03:30,065 --> 00:03:31,737
How did you get in here?
What do you want?
31
00:03:31,983 --> 00:03:34,099
Amelia Armitage.
The outer door was open.
32
00:03:34,361 --> 00:03:36,079
- To speak to you.
- Well, it's after-hours.
33
00:03:36,321 --> 00:03:38,789
Well, I realise that
but unfortunately, this can't wait.
34
00:03:39,074 --> 00:03:40,507
What are you doing
to protect yourself
35
00:03:40,742 --> 00:03:42,733
and the company
against Warner Griffith?
36
00:03:43,287 --> 00:03:44,800
What do you know
about Warner Griffith?
37
00:03:45,039 --> 00:03:48,315
Well, I know that you and Mr. Griffith
are fighting for control of Cal-Texas.
38
00:03:48,626 --> 00:03:50,218
- Go on, madam.
- Therefore, Mr. Conway,
39
00:03:50,461 --> 00:03:53,658
shouldn't you be doing something
to combat Mr. Griffith's activities?
40
00:03:53,964 --> 00:03:56,159
Something about
getting yourself re-elected?
41
00:03:56,425 --> 00:04:00,862
There are 3,419 stockholders,
including myself.
42
00:04:01,222 --> 00:04:02,416
Most of them own a few shares,
43
00:04:02,640 --> 00:04:04,676
and they're dependent on the dividends
they're paid.
44
00:04:04,934 --> 00:04:07,528
Griffith would bleed them white.
And you help them.
45
00:04:07,812 --> 00:04:09,689
Tell them your side.
Don't lose touch with them.
46
00:04:09,939 --> 00:04:13,090
- Good night, Mr. Conway.
- Wait a minute, madam--
47
00:04:13,401 --> 00:04:15,596
- Mrs.--
- Miss.
48
00:04:15,987 --> 00:04:20,663
Miss. I'm not married, Mr. Conway.
49
00:04:30,127 --> 00:04:33,756
Information, I'd like the night number
of Cal-Texas Exploration.
50
00:04:34,089 --> 00:04:35,283
It's on Wilshire.
51
00:04:35,508 --> 00:04:39,023
Providing this meets with the approval
of the board of directors,
52
00:04:39,345 --> 00:04:41,495
period, paragraph.
53
00:04:41,764 --> 00:04:42,799
Also, regarding the--
54
00:04:43,015 --> 00:04:44,892
[PHONE RINGS]
55
00:04:45,727 --> 00:04:47,638
Conway speaking.
56
00:04:48,146 --> 00:04:49,659
WOMAN:
Mr. Conway, I have information
57
00:04:49,898 --> 00:04:51,456
which can bea tremendous help to you
58
00:04:51,691 --> 00:04:54,046
in your fight for controlof Cal-Texas.
59
00:04:54,319 --> 00:04:55,308
Oh, really?
60
00:04:55,528 --> 00:04:58,167
I've got a list of the proxies
Warner Griffith has already obtained
61
00:04:58,448 --> 00:05:01,326
and the names of the stockholders
who gave them to him. Would it help?
62
00:05:01,618 --> 00:05:04,291
Of course it would.
Who is this speaking, please?
63
00:05:04,579 --> 00:05:06,774
I'm sorry. I can't give you my name.
64
00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:08,632
Do you know
you are being followed?
65
00:05:08,876 --> 00:05:10,548
- Well, no.
- You are.
66
00:05:10,794 --> 00:05:12,193
And I believe your phone is tapped.
67
00:05:12,421 --> 00:05:15,140
That's why I've gotto take precautions.
68
00:05:16,383 --> 00:05:18,101
All right, what do you suggest?
69
00:05:18,344 --> 00:05:20,619
There are six phone booths
in the Empire Drug
70
00:05:20,888 --> 00:05:22,162
at Wilton and La Brea.
71
00:05:22,390 --> 00:05:24,460
Go to the one farthest
from the door.
72
00:05:24,725 --> 00:05:27,193
At exactly 8:15, that phone will ring.
73
00:05:27,478 --> 00:05:29,673
Well, this is real cloak and dagger.
74
00:05:29,939 --> 00:05:34,729
If nothing has gone wrong, that call
at exactly 8:15 will direct you to me.
75
00:05:57,092 --> 00:05:59,083
[PHONE RINGS]
76
00:06:04,392 --> 00:06:05,666
- Hello?
WOMAN: Mr. Conway?
77
00:06:05,893 --> 00:06:06,882
Speaking.
78
00:06:07,103 --> 00:06:09,458
Meet me at the Hotel Redfern.Room 709.
79
00:06:09,730 --> 00:06:10,719
- When?
- Now.
80
00:06:10,940 --> 00:06:13,773
- Now, just a minute.
- Wanna lose everything to Griffith?
81
00:06:14,068 --> 00:06:15,820
I'll be there in ten minutes.
82
00:06:42,014 --> 00:06:43,925
Seven, please.
83
00:07:12,754 --> 00:07:14,267
Hello?
84
00:07:20,721 --> 00:07:22,598
Anybody in here?
85
00:08:33,713 --> 00:08:36,705
You walked down
from the seventh floor, huh?
86
00:08:59,073 --> 00:09:01,189
Seventh floor, miss.
87
00:09:04,912 --> 00:09:05,947
CONWAY:
So my first thought
88
00:09:06,164 --> 00:09:08,394
was to get in touch
with our corporation counsel.
89
00:09:08,666 --> 00:09:11,658
I finally found Mr. Varnell
at the bar association dinner.
90
00:09:11,961 --> 00:09:13,713
Rather a stroke of luck
that you were sitting
91
00:09:13,963 --> 00:09:15,874
at the same table with me, Mason?
92
00:09:16,132 --> 00:09:19,249
I will tell you again how much
Mr. Conway appreciates this.
93
00:09:19,553 --> 00:09:20,906
Smith & Wesson, .38.
94
00:09:21,138 --> 00:09:26,849
Serial number, C for Charlie, 48809.
95
00:09:27,269 --> 00:09:28,384
Well, what do you think?
96
00:09:28,896 --> 00:09:32,013
I think it wasn't very bright
of Mr. Conway to remove the gun.
97
00:09:32,316 --> 00:09:33,988
I told you. I wasn't thinking clearly.
98
00:09:34,234 --> 00:09:36,464
When I recognised it
as belonging to the company, I--
99
00:09:36,737 --> 00:09:38,011
Well, I guess I panicked.
100
00:09:38,614 --> 00:09:41,208
Well, how well did you know
this Rose Calvert?
101
00:09:41,492 --> 00:09:42,607
Look, I didn't kill the girl.
102
00:09:42,827 --> 00:09:45,182
I wasn't there more than
two or three minutes at the most.
103
00:09:45,454 --> 00:09:47,172
Now, was there--?
104
00:09:48,249 --> 00:09:51,400
Was there anyone in your office when
you received this first phone call?
105
00:09:51,711 --> 00:09:52,860
No.
106
00:09:53,087 --> 00:09:56,716
Did you see anyone at the drugstore
who knew you?
107
00:09:57,634 --> 00:10:00,592
So there's actually no proof
of those phone calls.
108
00:10:00,887 --> 00:10:03,321
Whether you believe it or not,
Mr. Mason, a woman called me.
109
00:10:03,598 --> 00:10:06,988
- I'm not making this up.
- Did you recognise her voice?
110
00:10:07,310 --> 00:10:10,222
Well, it sounded familiar.
I think I've heard it before.
111
00:10:10,522 --> 00:10:11,955
Where?
112
00:10:12,649 --> 00:10:16,164
- Was it Rose Calvert's voice?
- I don't think so.
113
00:10:16,487 --> 00:10:19,877
What about that woman who walked
into your office earlier this evening?
114
00:10:21,283 --> 00:10:24,195
- Do you recall her name?
- Wait a minute.
115
00:10:24,829 --> 00:10:27,707
Now I know why that voice
sounded familiar. It was Mrs. Griffith.
116
00:10:28,291 --> 00:10:30,725
Warner's wife?
Well, that's impossible.
117
00:10:31,002 --> 00:10:32,958
Maybe so, Varnell.
118
00:10:33,463 --> 00:10:35,977
But it's the first thing
that's made sense.
119
00:10:36,257 --> 00:10:39,329
If Conway is being framed
by Griffith,
120
00:10:39,636 --> 00:10:42,753
Griffith would have to use
someone he could trust.
121
00:10:43,848 --> 00:10:46,442
Della, get hold of Paul Drake.
122
00:10:46,726 --> 00:10:48,523
See if he can locate Warner Griffith.
123
00:10:48,770 --> 00:10:52,206
Have Paul turn this gun over
to the police.
124
00:10:52,524 --> 00:10:54,799
Really, Mason? Is that advisable?
125
00:10:55,068 --> 00:10:57,866
Well, it's evidence.
The police are entitled to it.
126
00:10:58,155 --> 00:11:00,032
Well, you do what you feel is best.
127
00:11:01,116 --> 00:11:02,834
Well, I think
under the circumstances,
128
00:11:03,077 --> 00:11:06,353
we'd better get Mr. Conway
out of circulation for a while.
129
00:11:06,664 --> 00:11:08,416
Someplace he can stay out of sight.
130
00:11:08,666 --> 00:11:12,181
How about one of those motels
on Tracy Boulevard?
131
00:11:12,503 --> 00:11:15,222
Good. Mr. Conway,
you're to use your own car
132
00:11:15,506 --> 00:11:17,462
and register under your own name.
133
00:11:17,717 --> 00:11:21,073
In the meantime,
I wanna talk with Mrs. Griffith.
134
00:11:21,387 --> 00:11:26,620
Mason, I'm afraid it will be impossible
for Mr. Conway to do as you ask.
135
00:11:27,018 --> 00:11:31,091
If he disappears now,
he may lose control of Cal-Texas.
136
00:11:31,439 --> 00:11:34,158
If he doesn't, he may lose his life.
137
00:11:38,572 --> 00:11:41,962
You can't imagine how flattered I was
to get a call from you, Mr. Mason.
138
00:11:42,284 --> 00:11:45,242
I've always been admirer of yours.
139
00:11:45,663 --> 00:11:47,255
Well, thank you.
140
00:11:47,498 --> 00:11:51,810
I know I must apologise for intruding
so late in the evening, Mrs. Griffith.
141
00:11:52,169 --> 00:11:55,844
Not at all. I'm flattered.
Now what can I do for you?
142
00:11:56,716 --> 00:11:59,833
You might start by telling me why
you phoned my client, Dan Conway,
143
00:12:00,136 --> 00:12:02,969
earlier this evening
and led him into a trap.
144
00:12:03,264 --> 00:12:05,653
I did no such thing.
What gave you that idea?
145
00:12:06,267 --> 00:12:09,384
Now, Mrs. Griffith,
we're reasonably intelligent people.
146
00:12:09,688 --> 00:12:12,600
You used a telephone.
Calls can be traced.
147
00:12:12,899 --> 00:12:14,730
But I didn't use this--
148
00:12:17,028 --> 00:12:18,780
I walked into it, didn't I?
149
00:12:19,281 --> 00:12:22,751
- Then you admit it?
- What else can I do?
150
00:12:23,952 --> 00:12:26,466
Isn't it fortunate
there were no witnesses?
151
00:12:26,747 --> 00:12:30,422
You intend to deny you made those
phone calls to Conway?
152
00:12:30,751 --> 00:12:31,820
Of course.
153
00:12:32,294 --> 00:12:36,003
All right.
Now, just for my own information,
154
00:12:36,340 --> 00:12:39,013
why did you send him
to Room 709 of the Redfern Hotel?
155
00:12:39,886 --> 00:12:41,205
Why did I do what?
156
00:12:41,762 --> 00:12:44,640
This is no joking matter, Mrs. Griffith.
A woman has been murdered.
157
00:12:45,391 --> 00:12:48,303
- Who?
- The police haven't identified her yet.
158
00:12:48,603 --> 00:12:50,480
Well,
what has all that to do with me?
159
00:12:50,730 --> 00:12:53,483
It has to do with your instructions
to Conway.
160
00:12:54,401 --> 00:12:56,631
I didn't have a chance
to give him any instructions.
161
00:12:56,903 --> 00:12:58,461
He was supposed to be
at the Empire Drug
162
00:12:58,697 --> 00:13:01,689
at exactly 8:15 to get my call
and he wasn't there.
163
00:13:01,992 --> 00:13:05,541
- He was there. He took a call.
- Not mine.
164
00:13:05,871 --> 00:13:07,668
Someone pretending to be you?
165
00:13:08,540 --> 00:13:10,656
I thought his office phone
was tapped.
166
00:13:11,210 --> 00:13:13,121
Why would
you wanna help Conway?
167
00:13:13,379 --> 00:13:15,734
Wouldn't that be against
your husband's best interests?
168
00:13:16,006 --> 00:13:20,124
My husband's interests
are no longer mine, Mr. Mason.
169

- I haven't the slightest idea.

- Did you see him today?
- No.

And the next time I see him,
it'll be in court.

Take a look at that.

One of his hobbies is photography.
I won't comment on the other.

I found three poses like that
175
00:13:38,113 --> 00:13:41,264
in an undeveloped roll of film
in his camera.

When Warner left Cal-Texas,
178
00:13:46,288 --> 00:13:50,076
he employed this girl for
some part-time work. That proxy thing.
179
00:13:50,417 --> 00:13:53,295
- What's her name?
- Rose Calvert. Mrs.
180
00:13:53,587 --> 00:13:55,817
But she's separated
from her husband.
181
00:13:56,090 --> 00:13:57,842
Where does she do
this part-time work?
182
00:13:58,092 --> 00:14:00,242
- At your husband's office?
- I don't know.
183
00:14:00,511 --> 00:14:04,299
But if you're interested, she lives
at the Sorrento Arms. Apartment 319.
184
00:14:04,640 --> 00:14:07,950
Thank you. Now, about those proxies
for Dan Conway?
185
00:14:08,269 --> 00:14:10,146
- Well, I can't give them to him now.
- Why not?
186

Well, if there's been a murder
as you say--

There has.

Well, I can't afford
to have anything come out

with my husband.

at the Sorrento Arms.

CALVERT: Yes.

Was she doing some modelling
in L.A.?
222
00:17:50,333 --> 00:17:54,611
- Is that why she's dressed like this?
- Possibly.
223
00:17:56,715 --> 00:17:59,024
I shouldn't have let her leave me.
224

I figured if she got all that making fun
out of her system, you see,

00:18:05,390 --> 00:18:08,427
then she'd still be here with me.

00:23:58,590 --> 00:24:01,582
- We've our own headaches.
- Maybe she can solve them.
336
00:24:01,885 --> 00:24:05,480
She claims she's the one who talkedto Conway in his office that night.
337
00:24:05,806 --> 00:24:08,036
Now, do you still want herto see Varnell?
338
00:24:08,309 --> 00:24:09,981
Bring her right in, Della.
339
00:24:10,227 --> 00:24:12,058
- You want me to shove off?
- No, no, you stay.
340
00:24:12,313 --> 00:24:14,622
- Get a chair, will you, Paul?
- Sure.
341
00:24:19,362 --> 00:24:20,351
MASON:
Come in, please.
342
00:24:20,571 --> 00:24:23,643
Mr. Mason, I really appreciate this.
I know how busy you are.
343
00:24:23,950 --> 00:24:25,019
Miss Armitage, Mr. Drake.
344
00:24:25,243 --> 00:24:26,358
- How do you do?
- Great.
345
00:24:26,578 --> 00:24:28,728
- Sit down, won't you?
- Thank you.
346
00:24:28,997 --> 00:24:31,352
I understand you go to trial
on Thursday.
347
00:24:31,625 --> 00:24:33,422
Yes, we do.
348
00:24:33,668 --> 00:24:36,865
- How are Mr. Conway's chances?
- Excellent.
349
00:24:37,172 --> 00:24:39,288
I'm so glad.
350
00:24:40,008 --> 00:24:43,637
He impressed me as being
a very bright and intelligent man.
351
00:24:44,346 --> 00:24:45,335
He is.
352
00:24:45,556 --> 00:24:48,389
I understand you were in Mr. Conway's
office on the night of the murder.
353
00:24:48,684 --> 00:24:51,915
- That's right.
- What time was this?
354
00:24:52,229 --> 00:24:55,107
Well, it was around 7:00.
355
00:24:55,399 --> 00:24:58,914
Just as I was leaving the office,
the telephone rang.
356
00:24:59,237 --> 00:25:03,947
Perhaps it was wrong of me,
but I did a little eavesdropping.
357
00:25:04,325 --> 00:25:08,637
I heard Mr. Conway make that
appointment to go to the drugstore.
358
00:25:08,997 --> 00:25:10,350
Go on.
359
00:25:10,582 --> 00:25:13,892
It sounded so intriguing,
I followed him there.
360
00:25:14,336 --> 00:25:16,133
Now, I saw him enter a phone booth
361
00:25:16,379 --> 00:25:19,928
and I believe it was the second one
from the end.
362
00:25:20,258 --> 00:25:22,772
After few seconds, the phone rang.
363
00:25:23,053 --> 00:25:24,406
What time was that?
364
00:25:25,347 --> 00:25:26,860
Around ten after 8.
365
00:25:27,433 --> 00:25:29,344
Miss Armitage,
366
00:25:29,727 --> 00:25:32,560
would you be willing to tell that story
on the stand?
367
00:25:33,439 --> 00:25:37,193
Of course. I've already told Mr. Burger,
the district attorney.
368
00:25:37,526 --> 00:25:40,165
Have you? What did he say?
369
00:25:40,988 --> 00:25:43,661
Well, he suggested
that I come and talk to you.
370
00:25:43,950 --> 00:25:45,588
I see.
371
00:25:47,787 --> 00:25:50,540
Thank you very much for coming by.
372
00:25:51,541 --> 00:25:52,530
What's wrong?
373
00:25:54,586 --> 00:25:56,383
You read about those phone calls
in the paper.
374
00:25:56,630 --> 00:25:57,619
I did not.
375
00:25:57,839 --> 00:26:01,195
Do you realise if you told that story on
the stand, you'd be guilty of perjury?
376
00:26:01,510 --> 00:26:03,626
I know that Mr. Conway is innocent.
377
00:26:03,887 --> 00:26:05,479
How?
378
00:26:06,473 --> 00:26:10,227
Well, I-- I just know it, that's all.
379
00:26:13,022 --> 00:26:17,777
I'm afraid our courts don't recognise
womanly intuition as evidence.
380
00:26:19,111 --> 00:26:21,261
Thank you again, Miss Armitage.
381
00:26:21,530 --> 00:26:25,205
I'm sorry I wasted your time,
Mr. Mason.
382
00:26:25,535 --> 00:26:29,005
- I'll see you out.
- No, please don't bother.
383
00:26:29,706 --> 00:26:33,255
[DOOR OPENS, CLOSES]
384
00:26:33,585 --> 00:26:35,894
She was only trying to help.
385
00:26:36,171 --> 00:26:39,049
That kind of help
could put Conway in the gas chamber.
386
00:26:39,341 --> 00:26:41,172
What made you suspect
she was lying?
387
00:26:41,426 --> 00:26:44,259
Her story about the phone call
wasn't quite correct.
388
00:26:44,554 --> 00:26:46,385
And when she said
Burger send her over here...
389
00:26:46,640 --> 00:26:49,438
Well, I learned long ago
to look Mr. Burger's gift horses
390
00:26:49,726 --> 00:26:50,920
right in the mouth.
391
00:26:51,144 --> 00:26:52,497
- Check on that girl, Paul.
- Yeah.
392
00:26:52,729 --> 00:26:55,118
I'm going over to see Conway.
393
00:26:59,194 --> 00:27:01,549
And we will prove
that the defendant, Daniel Conway,
394
00:27:01,822 --> 00:27:05,371
did wilfully murder Rose Calvert
on the night of January 20th.
395
00:27:05,701 --> 00:27:08,738
That he went to her hotel room
with just that thought in mind.
396
00:27:09,038 --> 00:27:11,598
After you've heard the evidence,
ladies and gentlemen of the jury,
397
00:27:11,874 --> 00:27:15,947
the state will ask you for a verdict
of murder in the first degree.
398
00:27:16,671 --> 00:27:21,381
Then the morgue attendant asked me
if I recognised the body.
399
00:27:23,887 --> 00:27:27,277
It was Rose. My wife.
400
00:27:27,974 --> 00:27:31,489
When did you first learn
of Mrs. Calvert's death?
401
00:27:32,229 --> 00:27:35,301
Well, a man came to see me
around midnight.
402
00:27:35,607 --> 00:27:36,835
He had a picture of Rose
403
00:27:37,067 --> 00:27:42,061
and I don't know where he got it
but he said that she was...
404
00:27:42,948 --> 00:27:44,222
...murdered.
405
00:27:44,450 --> 00:27:47,806
I couldn't believe it, so
I got in touch with the sheriff's office.
406
00:27:48,120 --> 00:27:50,111
And you told the sheriff
that this midnight visitor
407
00:27:50,373 --> 00:27:52,682
had showed you a picture
which you identified as your wife?
408
00:27:52,959 --> 00:27:54,028
Yes, sir.
409
00:27:54,252 --> 00:27:57,562
And I wanted to find out whether
it was true that she was murdered.
410
00:27:57,880 --> 00:28:00,030
Because that's what
your midnight visitor had told you?
411
00:28:00,300 --> 00:28:01,813
Yes, sir.
412
00:28:02,051 --> 00:28:03,120
That's all.
413
00:28:03,344 --> 00:28:06,063
I have no questions of this witness
414
00:28:07,766 --> 00:28:10,803
but I will stipulate
I was the midnight visitor referred to
415
00:28:11,102 --> 00:28:12,251
by the prosecution.
416
00:28:13,647 --> 00:28:15,319
You may step down, Mr. Calvert.
417
00:28:17,901 --> 00:28:21,371
We received an anonymous tip
and were checking it out.
418
00:28:21,697 --> 00:28:24,211
We found the body in Room 709
of the Hotel Redfern
419
00:28:24,491 --> 00:28:28,484
at about 8:40
on the evening of January 20th.
420
00:28:28,829 --> 00:28:31,741
- Did you find any fingerprints?
- Just one set.
421
00:28:32,041 --> 00:28:34,760
A right hand on the desk chair.
422
00:28:35,044 --> 00:28:37,956
- Could you identify those prints?
- Yes, we did.
423
00:28:38,256 --> 00:28:41,293
They belonged to Daniel Conway,
the defendant.
424
00:28:41,592 --> 00:28:42,581
BURGER:
Lieutenant,
425
00:28:42,802 --> 00:28:45,316
since there was only one set of
prints found in a whole room,
426
00:28:45,597 --> 00:28:48,430
and since the defendant
has the customary two hands,
427
00:28:48,725 --> 00:28:50,795
couldn't we assume
that he made every possible effort
428
00:28:51,061 --> 00:28:53,780
to remove all evidence of his visit
to Room 709?
429
00:28:54,314 --> 00:28:56,145
I object, Your Honour,
430
00:28:56,400 --> 00:28:58,595
as calling for a conclusion
from the witness.
431
00:28:58,860 --> 00:29:00,373
Sustained.
432
00:29:00,612 --> 00:29:03,285
Later that same night, lieutenant,
did you receive a package
433
00:29:03,574 --> 00:29:06,771
containing a Smith & Wesson
.38 calibre revolver?
434
00:29:07,077 --> 00:29:08,795
I did.
435
00:29:09,038 --> 00:29:11,950
Is this the gun in question?
436
00:29:14,293 --> 00:29:15,282
Yes, it is.
437
00:29:15,503 --> 00:29:18,859
Perhaps the jury would care
to examine the exhibit.
438
00:29:22,176 --> 00:29:24,292
BURGER: You have heard
Mr. Fred Calvert testify
439
00:29:24,554 --> 00:29:27,148
the verification of the identity
of the deceased
440
00:29:27,432 --> 00:29:29,866
was made by Mr. Mason
at about 12:00?
441
00:29:30,143 --> 00:29:31,132
TRAGG:
Yes, yes, sir.
442
00:29:31,352 --> 00:29:33,502
BURGER: When did you receive news
of that verification?
443
00:29:33,772 --> 00:29:35,046
About 7:00,
the following morning.
444
00:29:35,273 --> 00:29:36,865
I presume you received it
from Mr. Mason?
445
00:29:37,108 --> 00:29:40,703
No, I did not.
I got it from Mr. Fred Calvert.
446
00:29:41,029 --> 00:29:43,827
Your Honour, I object to this whole line
of questioning.
447
00:29:44,116 --> 00:29:46,676
Immaterial, irrelevant
and certainly incompetent.
448
00:29:46,952 --> 00:29:48,544
Mr. Burger, if you are insinuating
449
00:29:48,787 --> 00:29:51,096
that Mr. Mason withheld information
from the police,
450
00:29:51,373 --> 00:29:53,523
that's another matter
than the one we're concerned with
451
00:29:53,792 --> 00:29:56,101
and I uphold Mr. Mason's objection.
452
00:29:56,378 --> 00:29:58,414
I have no further questions
for this witness.
453
00:30:05,012 --> 00:30:06,650
Lieutenant Tragg,
454
00:30:06,889 --> 00:30:09,005
a rather pointed implication
has just been made
455
00:30:09,267 --> 00:30:11,064
concerning my behaviour
in this case.
456
00:30:11,311 --> 00:30:13,461
An implication
that I've been guilty of misconduct.
457
00:30:13,730 --> 00:30:15,641
I think we ought to clarify that issue,
don't you?
458
00:30:15,899 --> 00:30:17,173
Yes, I do.
459
00:30:17,400 --> 00:30:19,595
Now when you first spoke
to Mr. Calvert,
460
00:30:19,861 --> 00:30:21,499
what exactly did he say?
461
00:30:21,738 --> 00:30:24,377
Well, he told me that you showed him
a picture of his wife.
462
00:30:24,658 --> 00:30:26,888
Did he tell you at that time
that I knew it was his wife?
463
00:30:27,160 --> 00:30:28,149
- No, no.
- Of course not.
464
00:30:28,370 --> 00:30:30,201
Because I had no way of knowing
at that time
465
00:30:30,456 --> 00:30:32,128
that the deceased was Rose Calvert
466
00:30:32,374 --> 00:30:34,490
or that she was the wife
of Fred Calvert.
467
00:30:34,752 --> 00:30:36,982
I thought if she were,
her husband would go to the morgue
468
00:30:37,254 --> 00:30:40,132
and identify her, which apparently,
is just exactly what he did.
469
00:30:40,591 --> 00:30:41,944
If you want me to say that you did
470
00:30:42,176 --> 00:30:44,132
what any cooperative citizen
would have done--
471
00:30:44,387 --> 00:30:45,866
Well, didn't I, lieutenant?
472
00:30:51,144 --> 00:30:53,180
- What did you say, lieutenant?
- Yes.
473
00:30:53,730 --> 00:30:55,766
Thank you, lieutenant.
474
00:30:57,108 --> 00:30:59,178
Miss Jordan, you are employed
as an elevator operator
475
00:30:59,444 --> 00:31:00,843
at the Hotel Redfern?
476
00:31:01,071 --> 00:31:02,060
Yes, sir.
477
00:31:02,280 --> 00:31:04,669
And you have identified
Daniel Conway
478
00:31:04,950 --> 00:31:08,226
as having visited that hotel
on the evening of January 20.
479

Yes, sir.
480
00:31:09,746 --> 00:31:12,101
I remember I was reading
a book at the time
481
00:31:12,374 --> 00:31:14,410
and I let him off on the seventh floor.
482
00:31:14,668 --> 00:31:18,946
- What time of day was this?
- Around 8:30.
483
00:31:19,298 --> 00:31:20,970
Thank you.
484
00:31:26,472 --> 00:31:29,544
Miss Jordan,
you say you were reading a book
485
00:31:29,851 --> 00:31:31,807
when you took the defendant
to the seventh floor?
486
00:31:32,562 --> 00:31:33,881
That's right.
487
00:31:34,105 --> 00:31:37,893
- What was the name of this book?
- You Could Die Laughing.

00:31:42,781 --> 00:31:47,809
- Was it interesting?
- Very. I couldn't put it down.
490
00:31:49,121 --> 00:31:51,760
If you couldn't put the book down,
how could you possibly recognise
491
00:31:52,040 --> 00:31:53,951
the defendant's face?
492
00:31:54,209 --> 00:31:57,326
Thank you, Miss Jordan. That's all.
493
00:31:59,339 --> 00:32:03,252
Your Honour,
I have a question on redirect.
494
00:32:03,761 --> 00:32:06,912
Miss Jordan, you didn't say
that you recognised the defendant
495
00:32:07,223 --> 00:32:08,576
by his face, did you?
496
00:32:08,808 --> 00:32:11,481
- No, sir.
- How did you recognise him?
497
00:32:11,769 --> 00:32:13,282
By his feet.

By his feet?
500
00:32:19,444 --> 00:32:23,517
Yes, sir. You see, I sit all day
at the elevator controls
501
00:32:23,865 --> 00:32:26,425
and I read when I'm not too busy,
which I'm never too busy anyway.

So mostly, I see shoes and feet,
so it's kind of a hobby. I study them.

Have you any documentation
for this unusual ability?
504
00:32:35,127 --> 00:32:39,166
Well, not outside of the tests
they made of me at Stanford.

What were the findings
of these tests?

from The University of Chicago

it was really easy with him

because I dropped him
on the seventh floor

and a little while later,
I picked him up on the sixth floor.

And I said to him,
"You walked down a flight, didn't you?"

Mr. Griffith, you were a member
of the board of directors

00:33:28,182 --> 00:33:30,901
of the Cal-Texas Explorations,
is that so?

Until about four months ago.
522
00:33:33,062 --> 00:33:34,734
And you had certain
policy disagreements
523
00:33:34,980 --> 00:33:37,653
with the president and chairman
of the board, Mr. Daniel Conway?
524
00:33:37,942 --> 00:33:40,297
- That is correct.
- I see.
525
00:33:40,570 --> 00:33:44,040
Now, Mr. Griffith, did you employ
the deceased, Rose Calvert,

as a part-time secretary

What kind of work was this,
Mr. Griffith?
529
00:33:50,205 --> 00:33:52,036
- Confidential?
- Extremely.

00:33:55,627 --> 00:33:58,380
Yes, sir. But that wasn't
the most important work.
532
00:33:58,672 --> 00:34:02,631
There was something a great deal
more valuable. A great deal.
533

and other information
Rose Calvert supplied me.
538
00:34:14,813 --> 00:34:16,644
Would you tell us
about this information

and these investigations, please,
Mr. Griffith?
540

Objection, Your Honour,
541
00:34:20,987 --> 00:34:23,865
in addition to the question being
incompetent, immaterial and irrelevant,
542
00:34:24,157 --> 00:34:26,068
it also calls for hearsay testimony.
543
00:34:26,325 --> 00:34:30,000
It seems to me, Mr. Mason, that this
goes to the question of motivation
544
00:34:30,330 --> 00:34:32,719
and I will, therefore, allow it.
Your objection overruled.
545
00:34:34,459 --> 00:34:35,778
Go ahead, Mr. Griffith.
546
00:34:36,002 --> 00:34:38,914
The white paper concerned evidence
that Conway was turning over

00:34:42,676 --> 00:34:46,385
which Cal-Texas has spent thousands
of dollars to compile.

00:34:46,722 --> 00:34:49,282
Let me state the proposition,
Mr. Griffith.
550
00:34:49,558 --> 00:34:51,833
It would be a matter of vital importance
to Daniel Conway

you had against him,

00:34:56,523 --> 00:34:58,639
Rose Calvert had taken from his office,
wouldn't it?
554
00:34:58,901 --> 00:35:00,129
GRIFFITH: Yes.
- Your Honour--

00:35:00,361 --> 00:35:03,478
Mrs. Calvert kept this white paper
hidden at her place of work,

- Room 709 at the Hotel Redfern?
- Yes.
557
00:35:06,158 --> 00:35:09,116
So anybody looking for it would tear
the place apart in order to find it.
558
00:35:09,412 --> 00:35:11,243
- Yes.
- Objection.
559
00:35:11,497 --> 00:35:14,694
Your Honour, I've tried to be patient
during this interrogation
560
00:35:15,001 --> 00:35:17,879
but the district attorney has
consistently been leading the witness,
561
00:35:18,171 --> 00:35:19,809
calling for opinion.
562
00:35:20,048 --> 00:35:22,243
You are quite right, Mr. Mason.
563
00:35:22,509 --> 00:35:25,421
You will refrain from this type
of questioning, Mr. Burger.
564
00:35:25,720 --> 00:35:27,278
But, Your Honour,
we have already proven

represented a threat

And that only Daniel Conway knew
that Rose Calvert had stolen from it.

It needed stating, Your Honour.
I'm satisfied.
671
00:41:08,785 --> 00:41:10,662
Now, Mr. Griffith,
672
00:41:12,455 --> 00:41:14,411
you were aware
that a gun had been purchased
673
00:41:14,666 --> 00:41:17,783
by the Accounting Department while
you were still with Cal-Texas?
674
00:41:18,086 --> 00:41:19,075
Yes.
675
00:41:19,296 --> 00:41:21,366
And Rose Calvert worked
in the Accounting Department?
676
00:41:21,632 --> 00:41:23,509
- Yes.
- Have you seen that gun recently?
677
00:41:23,759 --> 00:41:26,398
- I don't mean in court yesterday.
- Yes.
678
00:41:26,679 --> 00:41:29,876
Was that gun in the possession
of Rose Calvert?
679
00:41:30,850 --> 00:41:31,839
Yes.
680
00:41:32,059 --> 00:41:35,415
She had taken it
from the Cal-Texas office.
681
00:41:35,730 --> 00:41:39,962
Now, did she keep it in Room 709
at the Redfern Hotel?
682
00:41:40,359 --> 00:41:43,317
- I don't know.
- Did she give it to you to hold for her?
683
00:41:43,613 --> 00:41:46,446
- No.
- But you did have access to it?
684
00:41:47,325 --> 00:41:49,680
Yes, I guess so.
685
00:41:50,578 --> 00:41:53,251
Rose Calvert
was an attractive woman.
686
00:41:53,540 --> 00:41:56,816
Was there anything between you
other than a business relationship?
687
00:41:57,127 --> 00:42:00,722
Your Honour, I object.
Mr. Griffith is not on trial.
688
00:42:01,298 --> 00:42:04,415
Your Honour, I contend this is
within the scope of cross-examination.
689
00:42:04,718 --> 00:42:06,709
I'm going to sustain this objection.
690
00:42:07,388 --> 00:42:09,026
Very well.
691
00:42:09,682 --> 00:42:11,513
Mr. Griffith,
692
00:42:12,184 --> 00:42:14,857
did you see Rose Calvert
on the day she was murdered?
693
00:42:15,855 --> 00:42:17,527
I was in Phoenix, Arizona.
694
00:42:17,773 --> 00:42:22,767
There are five hours unaccounted for
on your day in Phoenix, from 6 to 11.
695
00:42:23,154 --> 00:42:29,627
You had time to hire a private plane,
fly here, return to Phoenix
696
00:42:30,078 --> 00:42:32,592
in time to catch the scheduled flight
back to Los Angeles.
697
00:42:32,872 --> 00:42:35,705
Well, that's ridiculous.
I did no such thing.
698
00:42:36,001 --> 00:42:37,798
Do you deny seeing Rose Calvert
699
00:42:38,044 --> 00:42:40,319
or visiting her
on the day she was murdered?
700
00:42:40,589 --> 00:42:42,625
The closest I came to visiting her
701
00:42:42,883 --> 00:42:45,761
was when I had returned
from Phoenix early in the morning.
702
00:42:46,053 --> 00:42:48,726
I went to Rose's apartment house,
the Sorrento Arms.
703
00:42:49,640 --> 00:42:53,030
She was suppose to wait up for me.
But she wasn't there.
704
00:42:53,352 --> 00:42:56,503
Did you take a letter from
her mailbox at the Sorrento Arms?
705
00:42:56,814 --> 00:42:58,213
No.
706
00:42:59,608 --> 00:43:04,602
Mr. Griffith, there's testimony
that a letter was sent to Rose Calvert
707
00:43:04,989 --> 00:43:07,378
and that it was in her mailbox
on the day she was murdered.
708
00:43:07,658 --> 00:43:09,455
And that letter
seems to have disappeared.
709
00:43:09,702 --> 00:43:13,661
Now, remembering you are still
under oath, I ask you once again.
710
00:43:14,082 --> 00:43:17,757
Did you examine that mailbox
and did you remove such a letter?
711
00:43:18,420 --> 00:43:20,331
I did not.
712
00:43:22,340 --> 00:43:26,538
I can't say that I acted like a gentleman
in this thing
713
00:43:26,887 --> 00:43:31,642
but I didn't remove any letter.
And I didn't kill her.
714
00:43:33,727 --> 00:43:35,126
Your Honour,
715
00:43:35,354 --> 00:43:39,267
if I may recall a previous witness,
I believe I can prove someone is lying.
716
00:43:39,608 --> 00:43:42,566
Your Honour, I don't see why
we must have any more irregularity
717
00:43:42,862 --> 00:43:47,094
in the conduct of this trial.
Mr. Mason has gone far afield already.
718
00:43:47,658 --> 00:43:50,775
- What witness, Mr. Mason?
- Fred Calvert.
719
00:43:51,079 --> 00:43:54,037
I see no reason
why he can't be recalled.
720
00:43:54,332 --> 00:43:58,928
Fred Calvert will please come forward.
You may step down, Mr. Griffith.
721
00:44:05,802 --> 00:44:09,272
The witness needn't be sworn in
again. He's still under oath.
722
00:44:13,810 --> 00:44:15,846
Mr. Calvert,
723
00:44:16,230 --> 00:44:19,461
when I went to visit you
on the night of Rose's murder,
724
00:44:19,775 --> 00:44:23,734
I told you I had gotten your address
from your wife's mailbox.
725
00:44:24,071 --> 00:44:25,948
Do you remember that?
726
00:44:26,657 --> 00:44:30,366
- No. No, I don't.
- You don't remember that?
727
00:44:30,703 --> 00:44:35,219
Well, there were so many things
happening, so many things.
728
00:44:35,583 --> 00:44:38,575
But it was just about midnight
when I got to your house, wasn't it?
729
00:44:40,129 --> 00:44:42,848
Midnight? Yes.
730
00:44:43,383 --> 00:44:45,692
And when I left, what did you do?
731
00:44:46,261 --> 00:44:50,539
Well, I went to the sheriff in Ellendale
and we drove to L.A.
732
00:44:50,891 --> 00:44:54,725
and I identified my wife, Rose.
733
00:44:55,729 --> 00:44:58,801
That was about 7:00 in the morning,
wasn't it?
734
00:45:00,359 --> 00:45:05,274
- Yes, about 7:00.
- But that's almost seven hours.
735
00:45:05,656 --> 00:45:08,932
I drove from Los Angeles
to your house in just about an hour.
736
00:45:09,243 --> 00:45:11,313
Why did it take you all that time?
737
00:45:12,246 --> 00:45:14,282
Well, it did, you know?
738
00:45:14,874 --> 00:45:16,307
Was there something else
you had to do
739
00:45:16,542 --> 00:45:19,136
before you went to see the sheriff
in Ellendale?
740
00:45:19,420 --> 00:45:20,899
No.
741
00:45:21,839 --> 00:45:24,433
What was in that letter, Mr. Calvert?
742
00:45:24,759 --> 00:45:27,398
Did you threaten your wife
because she had fallen in love
743
00:45:27,679 --> 00:45:30,910
- with Warner Griffith?
- Nope.
744
00:45:31,224 --> 00:45:34,102
There was something in that letter
that would direct suspicion toward you
745
00:45:34,394 --> 00:45:36,703
so that you had to drive
to Los Angeles, pick up the letter
746
00:45:36,980 --> 00:45:38,379
and then drive back to Ellendale.
747
00:45:38,607 --> 00:45:40,916
- That's what took so long, isn't it?
- No.
748
00:45:41,193 --> 00:45:43,468
You did a lot of travelling
on the day of the murder.
749
00:45:44,196 --> 00:45:46,835
All right, you won't leave me alone,
I did it.
750
00:45:47,116 --> 00:45:48,629
[CROWD CHATTERING]
751
00:45:51,454 --> 00:45:53,251
What did you do, Mr. Calvert?
752
00:45:53,497 --> 00:45:57,285
I did go and get that letter.
But not for what you said.
753
00:45:57,627 --> 00:45:59,345
It was because I wanted
that deed back.
754
00:45:59,587 --> 00:46:01,259
What deed?
755
00:46:01,923 --> 00:46:03,834
To my house.
756
00:46:04,258 --> 00:46:07,136
I sent it to her because I thought
that if I gave her my house,
757
00:46:07,428 --> 00:46:11,706
she'd come back to me.
But when she died--
758
00:46:12,183 --> 00:46:14,538
Why should her relatives
get my house?
759
00:46:14,811 --> 00:46:17,769
Why did you keep denying that
you went after that letter, Mr. Calvert?
760
00:46:19,191 --> 00:46:20,704
Well.
761
00:46:22,819 --> 00:46:26,573
It's against the law
tampering with the mails, you know.
762
00:46:26,907 --> 00:46:29,262
Besides, it was my letter
to begin with.
763
00:46:29,535 --> 00:46:33,972
Why should I wanna kill her?
I wanted her back. I loved her.
764
00:46:34,331 --> 00:46:35,889
But she wasn't coming back.
765
00:46:36,125 --> 00:46:38,844
You found that out when you went
to the Hotel Redfern, Room 709,
766
00:46:39,128 --> 00:46:40,527
earlier that night.
767
00:46:40,755 --> 00:46:45,112
- About 7:45, to be exact, wasn't it?
- No.
768
00:46:45,468 --> 00:46:47,186
Maybe you didn't intend killing her.
769
00:46:47,428 --> 00:46:49,305
Maybe you just wanted
to plead with her.
770
00:46:49,555 --> 00:46:50,544
No, no.
771
00:46:50,765 --> 00:46:52,801
But she wasn't going
to come back to you.
772
00:46:53,059 --> 00:46:56,449
She got angry with you.
Did she threaten you with that gun?
773
00:46:57,731 --> 00:46:58,720
What gun?
774
00:46:58,940 --> 00:47:02,171
The gun she kept in her hotel room.
The murder weapon.
775
00:47:02,652 --> 00:47:03,641
No.
776
00:47:03,862 --> 00:47:06,217
You keep saying no,
just as you did previously.
777
00:47:06,490 --> 00:47:07,525
But you don't mean it now
778
00:47:07,741 --> 00:47:09,732
any more than you meant it before,
do you?
779
00:47:09,993 --> 00:47:11,585
Your Honour, I protest.
780
00:47:11,829 --> 00:47:16,539
You took that gun away from her.
You suddenly got angry with her.
781
00:47:16,917 --> 00:47:19,954
After all, you'd given her your house,
your mortgage-free house.
782
00:47:20,254 --> 00:47:23,371
Everything she could want in life.
Now--
783
00:47:23,841 --> 00:47:26,230
Maybe the gun went off
just by accident.
784
00:47:26,511 --> 00:47:29,071
Just by accident?
785
00:47:30,390 --> 00:47:31,948
No.
786
00:47:33,434 --> 00:47:37,985
Your Honour, this is pure conjecture
on the part of the defence counsel.
787
00:47:38,356 --> 00:47:40,028
Just a moment, Mr. Burger.
788
00:47:40,275 --> 00:47:41,993
Your Honour,
I ask the court's indulgence.
789
00:47:42,527 --> 00:47:44,040
What for, Mr. Mason?
790
00:47:44,279 --> 00:47:48,067
I'd like the witness to step down
to clarify a point of identification.
791
00:47:48,408 --> 00:47:50,876
All right. Step down, Mr. Calvert.
792
00:47:58,377 --> 00:48:01,050
Would you stand here
in front of the jury, please?
793
00:48:01,338 --> 00:48:02,771
Miss Mavis Jordan, please.
794
00:48:04,133 --> 00:48:07,603
Miss Jordan is the elevator operator
at the Hotel Redfern.
795
00:48:07,929 --> 00:48:11,126
I'd like her to look at your shoes,
if you don't mind.
796
00:48:25,697 --> 00:48:29,246
I loved my wife.
Honest, I did, Mr. Mason.
797
00:48:30,035 --> 00:48:31,514
Just a moment, Miss Jordan.
798
00:48:31,745 --> 00:48:34,339
I don't think we'll need
your identification.
799
00:48:36,708 --> 00:48:41,338
I thought she'd come to her senses
and come back to me. She wouldn't.
800
00:48:41,714 --> 00:48:45,866
She was willing to give up everything.
Even the house.
801
00:48:47,178 --> 00:48:50,454
Then you went to that hotel room
and you killed her.
802
00:48:52,475 --> 00:48:55,945
Yes. The way you said it,
Mr. Mason.
803
00:48:56,729 --> 00:48:59,527
Almost exactly the way you said.
804
00:49:15,207 --> 00:49:16,560
[CHUCKLES]
805
00:49:17,125 --> 00:49:19,685
- You know what's the funny thing?
- What's that, Perry?
806
00:49:19,962 --> 00:49:22,396
Well, Calvert standing
in front of the jury.
807
00:49:22,673 --> 00:49:24,311
- Mavis staring at his shoes.
- Yes.
808
00:49:24,550 --> 00:49:26,506
Why didn't you let
her finish her identification?
809
00:49:26,760 --> 00:49:28,113
- He couldn't.
- Well, why?
810
00:49:28,345 --> 00:49:30,700
She couldn't. Calvert was wearing
a different pair of shoes.
811
00:49:30,973 --> 00:49:32,850
[LAUGHS]

00:49:33,100 --> 00:49:34,772
Well,
I'm glad there's a happy ending.

- Hello.
- Oh, hello, there.
814
00:49:36,312 --> 00:49:40,146
I know I should apologise for intruding
but I just want to say congratulations.
815
00:49:40,483 --> 00:49:41,518
Oh, thank you very much.
816
00:49:41,734 --> 00:49:43,725
I still have the stockholders' meeting
ahead of me,
817
00:49:43,987 --> 00:49:47,138
- but won't you sit down?
- Thank you.
818
00:49:48,700 --> 00:49:52,613
You don't have to worry about that
stockholders' meeting, Mr. Conway.
819
00:49:52,954 --> 00:49:57,152
- Well, why not, Miss--?
- Armitage. Amelia Armitage.
820
00:49:57,501 --> 00:49:59,969
Wait a minute.
Are you from Running Springs, Texas?
821
00:50:00,254 --> 00:50:02,484
- That's right.
- Oh, then your family owns 37--
822
00:50:02,756 --> 00:50:06,669
Thirty-seven percent
of the controlling shares of Cal-Texas.
823
00:50:07,011 --> 00:50:09,969
Well, looks like you have it made,
young fellow.
824
00:50:10,264 --> 00:50:11,902
I think we'd better be going.
825
00:50:12,141 --> 00:50:13,859
- Good luck, Mr. Conway.
CONWAY: Thank you.
826
00:50:14,101 --> 00:50:17,855
- Good night, Miss Armitage.
- Good night.

a good age for her, don't you think?

What are you up to now,
Miss Fix-it?

Well, I just thought since they were
both very interested in Cal-Texas,
830
00:50:30,827 --> 00:50:33,739
it would be a good time
for a merger.
