Original subtitles

Lieutenant, you're just in time.

Evening, Chief.

Well, I hope we didn't interfere with your plans for the evening. My pleasure.

was going to kill them in a gin rum again.

They live in some changes made. You took the pool table out. Mark was getting

too good.

I can't stand it. Oh, a loser.

Carl, this is Gil Peters, Lieutenant Reed.

Hi. How are you?

Gil's head of security for International Credit Cards.

I'm sure you know a lot of this, but I want Gil to fill you in completely.

Uh, okay.

Well, as you know, a single stolen credit card, if used carefully and in

selected cities, can obtain an excess of $2 ,000 worth of merchandise, resale

value about half.

Our stolen card reports lead us to believe that there's a new racket going

Apparently well -organized. Seems to concentrate on young, upper -middle

males, the kind that generally carries about four credit cards.

They average about three victims a night.

Four cards per victim.

You have a seven -night -a -week term.

And that's just here.

There are about 20 major cities where the same thing seems to be going on.

Quite an operation.

Most of the victims are visitors.

You're from out of town?

Yeah.

But don't go to the hotel by way of hope. Okay, I've been here a lot.

Would I do that?

Is your wife waiting for you at the hotel?

Nope. I'm one of those who haven't been caught yet.

Uh, you bachelors, you got it made.

Go where you want, do what you want.

Right. This racket cuts across department lines, Carl.

I'm calling in all the old pros I can spring loose. Always happy to solve your

cases for you, Chief. Thank you.

All right, Gil.

Give us all the details you have in the modus operandi.

We have a strong feeling that the victims don't give us the real story.

I hope this ain't out of line, but you got plans for tonight?

No. What? Where? A funny thing happened on one of my last trips.

There was a guy in two dames, all from out of town. Some kind of convention.

They asked me if I knew another guy who could join the party.

You interested?

I don't know.

The worst that happens is you walk out like... I want to tell you, though.

dames were young and pretty and ready for a good time, you know?

Where are they? Not too far.

Wouldn't hurt to check it out, would it?

I guess not. I could use a little fun.

We all could, Fred.

We all could.

The victims generally wake up the next morning with a headache, an empty

and an acute case of embarrassment.

They report the credit cards as lost and go home.

By the time we get on to it, we're too late.

Take your time.

Dust everything.

Are you ready?

We can take them.

No visible signs of violence. Name's Danny Fremont. He isn't registered here.

Mr. Kalemsky, Chief Ironside. Mr. Kalemsky for manager.

Mr. Kalemsky, 30 years in the motel business, this never happened. You hear

other people, it happens to them. To me, never.

Who rented this room from you, Mr. Kalemsky? A nice -looking fellow comes

registers as Frank Rogers.

We'll check it out. It's got to be a family.

Did you see anyone else? In the car, two girls.

I gave them a look, you know.

And he smiles and says he's having a couple of guests in for a drink.

If they should get too loud, I should let them know. Did you see Fremont come

in? Oh, yes and no.

The taxi pulled up later right to the room.

I guess it was him coming to the party. Were they loud?

No, a little laughing, that's all.

Then a man and two girls left by car.

I figured it was the first fellow staying over.

Until this morning when the maid came in.

Believe me, in 30 years... Would you be able to identify the man who rented the

room?

I think so.

Yes.

Here.

Anything else at the moment? No, thank you.

Where is it?

His driver's license is still here, but not much else.

Well, who shoots for the taxi that brought him and who stays at the motel?

stay with the motel.

I want a thorough job.

I'll put it through a sieve.

This is some lunch you invited me to.

I've got to talk to you, Joe.

Talk.

You know that second mark you brought us last night?

He calmed down. Yeah, so?

I put the Mickey's phone.

No, no, I don't mean that he passed out.

I mean he bought out.

What'd you do?

Well, we got out of there. What do you think we did?

And then, you know, the girls and I talked it over.

Whether to tell Al or not. I want to talk to you. What do you think?

I think you better tell Al.

Yeah, but will he be a little bit sore? I don't know.

What I do know is we don't do anything without orders.

And we report everything that goes on.

Yeah, but this.

Listen, Joe, I... Maybe you could come with me, you know, to tell Al. All

How did it happen?

I tell you, I don't know.

Everything was going great. You know, lots of laughs and some booze.

And I fixed the drink. Marilyn gave it to him.

Well, the next thing I know, he's on the bed breathing like somebody sitting on

his chest. And then, bang, the guy's dead.

He looked okay to me.

Like some well -heeled guy on the town. I figured he'd be easy.

And healthy.

How did I know he was going to conk?

I didn't put any more in the drink than I did before.

Well, look, now you're looking at me like I did something terrible. You did.

What?

Okay. The guy conked on you. It could happen.

But did you take off quietly like nice people so as not to attract attention?

That's just what we did.

And what's this?

You could have got out of there nice and clean.

Cops would have figured the guy died in his sleep, or at the very worst, some

chick slipped him a bad drink.

But no.

You had to lift his cards.

You've connected us to it.

Get rid of these.

Burn them, eat them, I don't care what you do with them, but get rid of them!

They want this racket cleared up, but they want it done quietly.

Quietly isn't going to produce immediate results. What we need are posters,

pamphlets, TV, newspaper warnings. And a lot of conventions are going to think

twice about coming here if they get the impression that the city isn't safe.

No city was ever safe for people who accept invitations to strange rooms. You

can't change human nature, Bob. And the city can't have it both ways.

You know that, but apparently the city fathers do not. My orders are to clear

this up in a hurry with the least possible noise.

Except for me.

Hello? Yes.

Yes,

Chief Farnsley is here with me now.

I'll tell him.

Coroner says Fremont died of a heart attack induced by knockout drops.

Fremont died of murder.

It's bound to happen sooner or later.

With three million a week involved, I'm surprised this is the first homicide

that's turned up.

Find anything at the motel?

Prints all over the place, but so far no make on anybody.

Could have been left over from guests weeks back.

Any word from the cab companies yet? They're checking the driver's trip

It takes a while. It's unlikely that any driver who's shilling for a sideline

would put it on his trip sheet.

Do we break the story?

Could put a crimp in their operation.

The commissioner would prefer that we solve the murder and put them behind

quietly.

Ironside. I checked out three more reports of lost cards.

Two elderly fisters, a minister and his wife, and a young junior executive type

who looks like he's got a hangover and a guilty conscience.

Would you like to talk to him? I would indeed.

I thought you would.

He's waiting in my honor office. I'll bring him right over. Fine, thank you.

Hangover, guilty conscience.

Pretty good poly.

They usually run as an entry.

This is an awful lot of fuss over a couple of lost credit cards, isn't it?

What would you say if I told you someone was killed while losing his credit

cards?

You're kidding.

No, we're not. Mr. Mathis, we need your help. We need the truth.

Look, I already told your office.

My pocket was picked. May I see your wallet?

Now, what did they do? Pick just your credit cards and leave the wallet?

Look, I just didn't think it was so important.

My boss thinks I'm out here strictly on business, you know.

I have to protect myself a little.

Which do you think your boss would object more to, the parties or the lying

the police?

Well, listen.

Look, I mean I reported it, didn't I? Not the way it really happened.

Cab driver told me where there was a party going on. The cab driver told you?

Yes, he said there was a guy and two girls and they were looking for another

fella. Where was this party?

Some motel. I don't remember the name. Do you remember where it was?

I'm not sure. I wasn't paying much attention.

You know, they all look alike.

You woke up the next morning with an empty wallet.

An empty wallet and the motel manager wanting his money for the room.

You'd think it'd at least be fair enough to pay the motel bill. There's nothing

funny about this, Mr. Mathers. Nothing at all.

No, I guess not. Do you remember the name of the cab company?

No.

But it was painted maroon and beige.

Standard cab.

Mr. Mathers, if we get you pictures of all their drivers, do you think you

pick out the one who took you to the party? Yes, I think so.

We'd also like you to work with the police artist.

Help him draw the man and the two girls.

Look, I'll be glad to do everything I can to help, but, uh...

I've got to be back in Chicago tomorrow night. Lieutenant, maybe Mr. Mathers

should be held here for a few days as a material witness.

All right, I get the point.

I'll stay in town as long as you need me.

Thank you, Mr. Mathers.

Leave word where we can reach you.

Yes, sir.

Ed. Take Mr. Mathers to the standard cab office.

Have him look over the pictures of all their drivers.

You come with me, please?

I'll run along if you don't need me, Chief.

Fine, Gil.

What do you think?

I don't think our fun -loving junior executive will be too anxious to

the cab driver.

He'd much rather let the whole thing drop.

Yeah, he'll get new credit cards, put his cash loss on his expense account,

be home free. Any other strings there?

One. A handwriting expert is analyzing the signature of Frank Rogers on the

motel registry.

Once we get a fix on his handwriting, I'll have my boys comb the rest of the

motels to see what other names he's been using.

When we get the pattern, we'll alert them, and they'll be on the lookout for

him. How long will it take?

Follow up all the motels?

A week, maybe.

Try two days.

Two days?

Yeah, that's 48 hours.

48 hours? What do you want from me? An arrest.

The most pronounced affectation is the way he prints the capital letter of the

name and then scripts the rest.

Now, the two R's are interesting.

Just the slope up, over, and down.

No loops or curls.

What about the way the whole last name kind of runs together?

I don't think that's a normal slopover.

Chances are your man deliberately writes fast.

to make the letters run together and therefore harder to identify.

I'd say you'd find it in his other alias signatures as well.

How fast can we get a print of that? They're ordered. You should have them in

couple of hours. Make it one hour.

I don't see them.

Are you sure it was a standard, Kat?

Yes.

Look through them again, Mr. Matthews.

Slowly.

Now the list is complete. Nobody miss it.

They're all there.

Maybe they've changed a little since those were taken. You know, some get

some wear their hair a little bit longer, especially the younger ones. But

they're all there. Okay.

Look for some identifiable...

How

is it?

Are you fishing for a compliment, or do you want an honest answer?

Both, I think.

Only time will tell how good a lawyer you're going to be. But as a cook, you

full marks. Well, at least I'll have something to fall back on.

Hey,

just in time. Mark, do we have any chili left?

No, thanks. The blisters on my tongue are still healing from the last time.

Lieutenant. No offense.

Inside.

I don't care if he has to look through the pictures 12 times.

I want him absolutely sure.

Ed. Let Gil Peters work with him.

I want you to take the night off.

Go out.

Have fun.

And take standard cabs, lots of them.

Let me have a receipt, please, and keep the change.

Thank you.

I checked the drawings with every mugshot we had. No wonder Matthews came

dry. What do you think? No previous arrest or from out of town? Out of town.

They probably rotate their crews among all 26.

Anything from Ed?

Only to be spending a fortune on cabs.

Where to?

I don't know. Get me at a good restaurant.

Sure.

First time in San Francisco?

Oh, I've been here a couple times before, but I don't know the town.

Just in for one night and ate waste about a bum place.

You have any good suggestions?

Yeah, well, you should make some friends.

I try, but it's tough, you know.

Have any ideas?

About what?

Any place a guy can meet some people.

Bars, nightclubs, places like that, I guess.

That's a drag.

Yeah,

I guess so.

To me, I don't run around much.

You want Chinese food? I could drop you off in China.

No, no thanks. I think I'll walk for a while. Just drop me at the corner.

Anything you say.

Give me a receipt and keep the change.

Much obliged.

Thanks.

Hello? Al, we're in trouble.

A cop just tried to con me into a deal.

I'm telling you, Al, it was a come -on. Believe me.

What makes you so sure it was a cop?

He was pumping me.

Like, did I know a place he could find some action?

So he wasn't that kind of a guy.

I can tell.

Joe, you're seeing cops around every corner. Just drive your cab.

I did. For ten years. That's how I know what I'm talking about. I've seen too

many guys.

Don't tell me your life story, Joe.

I mean it, Al.

I'm nervous.

That's the trouble with you. You're always nervous.

All right. Never mind my trouble.

What are we going to do?

We do like we always do. You find the marks, and Frank and the girls take care

of them.

With police breathing down our necks?

I was sent out here to do a job, Joey.

If you can't handle your end of it anymore, I'll get someone who can.

No.

I can handle it.

I just... Besides, what are you scared of?

You're monitoring the police calls.

The setup is there if you get in trouble.

Let's get back to work.

Yeah.

Okay, okay, Al.

Hello, this is Al.

Put me through.

What do you mean you can't?

All right, you tell him.

I'm sitting here with a stiff on my hands and the heat's beginning to build

I think it's time we pulled out of here.

All right, all right, but we need a decision soon.

Yeah, okay.

Have a nice weekend yourself.

All right, Mr. Mathis.

Yes, we'll let you know.

Either Mathis has a rotten memory for faces or he's double -crossing us.

Matt?

There is one other possibility.

If you were going to play a racket seven nights a week, would you put your

picture anywhere?

No, but all cab drivers have to have their picture in file in order to get a

permit. He couldn't play this racket without a permit. Why not?

He couldn't get a job.

Suppose he makes his own job.

As an independent, I could see it. But he's driving for standard.

Is he?

Ah, oh.

That doubles up the problem, doesn't it?

What are you talking about?

In fact, we're not only looking for a phony cab driver, we're probably looking

for a phony cab as well.

And to your knowledge, no taxis have been sold recently by your company.

No. We usually host them, six, seven at a time.

But they have so many miles on them by that time, they're junk. Mr. Hancock, do

you have any sort of driver supervision on the street, I mean? Yeah, I have

supervisors on each shift.

They cruise, generally keep an eye out for a cab. Then they know all the

drivers. Well, from their own garage, yeah.

We have three garages. Each one has their own supervisor.

Then if one of your men sees a driver he doesn't recognize, he just figures he's

from another garage, right? Yeah, I guess he would.

And would not take any particular notice.

Well, not unless the driver were in some kind of trouble.

I'm sure you have a reason for wanting to know about fleet operations, Chief.

Yes, I do.

If there were a cab on the street with your colors and your name on it, but it

wasn't one of your cabs.

How would you go about locating him? I'd call the Bureau of Licenses, have the

man's card pulled.

He's not listed there. What about the cab numbers? Are they in special code to

identify which garage they come from?

No.

We buy a car, we put a number on it. It stays with it until we sell it, no

matter which garage.

Look, are you sure about this phony cab?

Recently.

Well, what's the driver doing?

Holding people up or what?

He is steering them to places where they are robbed.

Have you let this out to the press yet?

No. Good.

We're scaring people out of taking our cabs. That's not the reason we haven't

publicized it. What are you going to do about it?

Obviously, we can't let this man go on doing it. There's a fast way to catch

if you'll help.

Pick a night.

Keep all your cabs off the street.

If they only started moving that night, we'll be the one we're after.

I couldn't do that.

I mean, I can't tell the men they're laid off. I'd have to pay them. Suppose

could get the police department to reimburse you for your loss.

It's never been done before.

But I suppose under those circumstances... All right.

We'll let you know when, Mr. Hancock.

Pick up the payroll for an entire fleet of cabs for the night? That's right.

We can't do that. Why, the budget department think we're out of our minds.

The longer we have the case open, the more it's going to cost us. This is an

investment in speed.

Suppose their driver doesn't show up on that particular night.

We'd be wasting all that money.

Are you interested in economy or catching these killers?

Take it easy, Bob. It's just such a new idea.

I'm not sure I can swing it.

Let me know when you find out.

How long do those meetings usually go on?

Interminably, when they're about money. And what are the commissioner's chances

on selling them?

About as good as mine were of selling him.

Any word from the commissioner?

Not yet.

The story on Danny Fremont broke in the last edition.

I know.

Just said he was found dead under mysterious circumstances. Did you tell

press not to go into any more detail? I don't tell the press what to do.

Occasionally I ask for their cooperation.

Chief, I'm sorry, don't I?

Yes, sir. Hold on.

Chief, the commissioner.

Yes, Commissioner?

I tried, Bob. I tried hard.

From your tone, I would assume they didn't buy it.

Oh, there was a lot of talk of citizen resentment of high taxes.

Maybe there should have been some talk about citizens' resentment against

I'm sorry, Bob.

So am I.

Thank you.

Well, it was a nice try.

How much did you say your companies are losing?

Three million a week.

I hope you're thinking what I'm thinking.

Oh, yeah.

Call Hancock.

Tell him to take his cabs off the street. The cab's on your company?

Company will pay it. You got it.

We'll put every available unit on the street. We're lucky we can find him, box

him in, and let him lead us to the others.

The only thing I can pick, if the fall gets any worse, we won't be able to see

each other, let alone a fan.

Sergeant Brown, what's your weather forecast?

Is this going to blow away or get heavier?

All turned up.

Thanks, Sergeant.

This is Reese. I've spotted it.

I'm at 7th and Alameda Space.

He's going south on 7th Street.

Now, don't close in fast.

Just ease up the units and let them wait for my order.

This is Reese. He's straight west on Ranchero.

Come on, Mark. You can do better than this. Take your choice. Catch up with

Reese and Lena. Apologies. I have a cable car now.

I think I get it.

I already have. I'm sitting up front.

We've moved away from the business district. I think he knows he picked up

fare. Where are those schooners?

They're in the business district where we put them.

What are the general costs? Any cars in the area?

Regular Mug Patrol cars.

You know, Reese is tailing them.

We're going to leave it to the others.

We're going to run.

If we get him alone, not at all.

He's out of the cab.

I'm going to pick him up.

Well, what do you want? Is this a stick -up? I'll leave. Hands against the wall.

Feet apart.

And I can't breath.

Not very far.

Seal off the area.

If you spot the cab, proceed with caution.

Lieutenant Reese may be with them.

They just picked up a cop. He was tailing the cab.

I don't know yet. They just brought him in.

Okay.

What'd they say?

They want to know how much he knows.

You heard that.

Why were you following the cab?

Look, we're gonna find out why you were tailing the cab.

And what else you think you know.

We're gonna find out.

So why don't you just tell us before Jerry here has to hurt you?

Do I have to hang around?

Yeah.

All right, Jerry.

No busted taillight. I didn't run no stop signs.

I don't stand you up against a wall for earned stop signs or a busted taillight.

No, he might have.

It was foggy.

Maybe he was trying to be careful.

Anything you can remember that was different?

Any reason at all he'd pick on you?

No. And to have some reason to pick you out of a crowd of cabs? There was no

crowd. I was the only standing around.

In the middle of town?

That's right.

Are you sure?

I'm telling you, I didn't see any others.

Why?

I'll tell you why.

Suppose one of our marks reports you took him to a party, standard cab.

Yeah? Easiest way to get on to which one you're driving is to get all the rest

of them off the street. Can they do that?

Maybe. I'll find out.

Oh, what about Frank and the girls?

Let them sit till we're sure.

If it's nothing, there's no sense in knocking off. You can make a few bar

pickups. Here's my car.

You mean you really want me to keep right on working? Why not?

Only one guy can identify you, and he's not going anywhere.

No trace of him.

Well, you think Reese might be with the driver on the cat, forcing him to take

him to the rest of the gang?

Without calling in, he's a pro.

Maybe he's in trouble.

What do you mean? He's so much of a pro, he just assumed he could take that man

alone. Well, couldn't he? One man, yes.

Where would the driver get help?

He never stopped anywhere. Cabs have radio phones, Ed. He didn't have to

Mark, get Hancock on the phone fast.

What are you going to do?

Every standard cab we can back on the street, if Reese keeps his mouth shut,

might fool him into thinking it was a fluke.

plenty of other standard cabs on the street.

Why did you follow that one?

Look, we're going to keep at it till you tell us.

Why don't you make it easy on yourself?

What's so important about me following a cab?

Just answer the questions.

Why did you follow it?

Because, because it was pretty.

Jerry.

Look, Lieutenant, you're in trouble, right?

I mean, let's not kid around about it. You're in real trouble.

See that phone over there?

It's going to ring soon, and I'm going to get some orders, like what to do with

you.

Now, you play ball with me, and maybe I can keep you alive.

Why kill me? Just because I follow the cab?

Just because you follow the cab.

Does your boss know how stupid you are?

even if all I wanted to do was give him a ticket for running a traffic light.

You've already shown me it's a much bigger deal.

Tell us.

My boss wants to know how much information you have, and especially he

know how you spotted the cab.

You go along with me, maybe we'll just walk out of here, disappear, and you'll

still be walking around.

Your boss is going to have to tell you. Take his chances.

All right, Jerry.

Frank Rogers.

Arthur Rollins.

Ralph Arthur.

Ralph Arthur. Raymond Arthur.

Philip Richards.

How about trying Ralph Arthur?

Jack Richards.

Yeah. Arthur Bemis.

Okay, how about Arthur Rollins?

We're looking for a man and two women who may have checked into your motel.

The man goes by a number of names. Would you get your register, please?

Raymond Arthur.

Hello.

Yes, Frank Rogers.

Raymond Arthur.

Francis Rollins.

Arthur Beemot.

Arthur Beemot. Yeah, Ralph Arthur.

Arnold Beemot.

Rollins. Arthur Rollins.

Look, I'll wait.

Yeah, hold on.

Four Star Motel has a Francis Rollins.

Hang on a minute.

Get over there, Ed. Compare the handwriting sample.

I'll be right there. Keep your eye on the room.

Tell them there's something wrong with the phone. Yes. If they try to call out

or someone else tries to... All right, thank you for your help. Get Chief

Ironside if they try to leave.

Thank you.

Look, I won't need that now. Thank you very much, sir. Mark, I want to see the

officer in charge of the standby squad right away.

What's this fella done?

I mean, is he dangerous?

I don't know.

Chief, the signatures check.

They're sitting in there waiting, a man and two women.

What do you do now?

We hope they don't decide to leave.

What happened?

It just all stopped working.

It sure has taken Joey a long time tonight.

Well, it may be the fog. You know, there's not too many people out tonight.

I'm getting sleepy.

Hey, Frank, you don't think something went wrong, do you?

Well, I mean, maybe after what happened the other night... Will you shut up

about that? I told you it was an accident, okay?

Will you cool it? You don't have to snap my head off.

Some party we're going to have.

What's the matter?

There's nothing.

I thought I heard Joe pull again.

But he's not.

Hey,

what's going on here? What is this? I'm going to call the manager.

Where's the man?

I don't know what you're talking about.

Let's lift out the back window.

Don't let him spot you.

Right.

Having

time

to dial?

Yeah, right.

Hello. Is Ed there, please?

No, there's nobody here by that name.

Ed Brown?

I told you, there's no Ed Brown here.

Get the wrong number, friend.

7 -7 -6 -5 -9 -9 -7.

7 -7 -6 -5 -9. I have it.

7 -7 -6 -5 -9 -9 -7.

Connection's still good. Trace it fast.

All right, Lieutenant.

You've got 20 seconds to give me my answers. Otherwise, I call my boss and

him you just won't cooperate.

You know what he'll say.

He's going to order me killed anyway.

Maybe not.

What do you say?

Let me think about it. You have plenty of time to think. I need more.

Well, that's it.

All right.

All right, I'll tell you what I know.

Now you're talking sense.

All right.

Why'd you follow the cab?

We were looking for it. Why?

We knew there was a phony cab on the streets. What made you think it was

Cab company gave me a list of numbers.

Yours didn't match up. The number on that cab is the same as one of theirs.

copied it. Now tell it again!

I phoned it in. They gave me the license plate number. It didn't match yours.

All right.

Could have happened that way.

Why were you following a cab in the first place? You know why. My boss wants

know if you know why.

We had a complaint from a man that was picked up by the same cab and was

How much did they take him for?

A few hundred dollars.

Is that all?

Is that all?

Yes, yes, that's all.

Okay.

You had your chance.

Why'd you kill a guy?

What guy?

Fremont.

Who?

You read the papers.

All right, now I'll make you a deal.

Untie me. Let me take you both in. What?

Turn state's evidence. Tell what you know. I'll see that it goes easy for

You weren't there anyway, right?

You can cop a plea.

Might even get immunity.

Okay, Ed, we've got the address.

No dice, pal.

That's right.

They know the whole thing, including the cab trick, and that we're tied into the

stiff.

I could have told you that a long time ago.

I'll talk to you later.

Sorry. Doesn't surprise me.

Yeah, you.

You make a nice big noise with your gun.

Who said anything about using a gun?

I got a call, Frank.

All right, don't move.

Put it down.

We'll make you one phone call later.

You all right?

Give or take a few moments.

You certainly took your sweet time tracing that call.

You neglected to let us know where you were.

Uh -huh.

Beautiful.

Now, if the other cities move fast enough, we might get quite a haul.

I certainly appreciate what you went through to mail them for us. Yes, all

things considered, Lieutenant, you're a credit to your division.

They might even forget you let yourself be captured.

Oh, they will.

But will you? In time, perhaps.

They just picked up the cab driver.

Good.

You a little sore?

Only when I laugh.

By the way, did I thank anybody for saving my life?

No. All right. Thanks.

You're welcome.

Matter of fact, I'd like to take everybody out to dinner tonight.

No problem.

I've got a credit card.
