Champagne and steak,a big thick steak

With ice cream on it,and marsh mallows

And asparagus,out of season asparagus

And girls dancing on the table.

You drink that coffee

No,we are going places,bright lights,music

You can't expect a cute girl eat here

You have to get out

You can't make a disturbance in here

You have insulted this little lady and I demand an apology

An unconditional apology

Accusing her making a disturbance, that's an insult!

We come in here quietly,and all we wanted was champagne

You certainly are cute

-Friend of yours? - Hey,pal!

You see,he's just happy

He is my pal

Come on, we take them with us

Come on ... pal

-He deserves to be arrested -He certainly had his snoot full

Putting his arms around a nice girl like Mary

It's a good thing you came in, I would have killed him

When you pick yourselves a girl like Mary

You go to be prepared to battle them off

So he thought you were cute,ah

Well, you know how it is ,he was drunk.

You don't have to be drunk when you know something good while you are seated

Where are we going tonight?

We are going for a nice, long ride

Oh, Brick ...

This is no life,spending every night in the cab

because you got no else place to go

I've never had any complaints about that back seat yet?

Brick, I've been thinking ...

Do not tell me! I've been doing little thinking myself

You have what ?

- Good -Beautiful

Look, Mary

That'll be us soon

Oh, Brick ...

- A house like that -Why not?

-Darling,how can you kid about that -I'm not kidding!

A place like this,all our own

-You like it? - Like it?

Oh, Brick ...

-I get that settles that -Yes it does

Look, right over here I'm going to have my garage.

With room for 3 or maybe 4 cabs

And that's your workshop with carpenter bench and all that stuff

And in down here all away down in the end of garden, maybe a few vegetables

Where does the house go?

We'll put that some place there will be plenty of room somewhere

Now, my fine architect, let me tell you a few things.

Over here we are going to have the living room.

Right in the garage? You don't need all that room

Over there we'll have the living room

And there we have the bedroom, with nice white curtains.

Frilly ones

And there will be the kitchen.

And that there a room for the kids to play

Kids? What kids?

Yours.Husky redheaded little kids just like you

I got everything a guy could want

I got a girl,I gonna build a home

You got the girl,but I'm afraid you'll have to wait a little while for the home

Didn't I tell you? I got it all fixed

I saved up 500 bucks that's all I need to buy this lot

-FHA does the rest - You mean a loan?

It's the government,everybody owes them

I know Brick, but ....

All the things you planned, all that you counted on

how you are going to have a lot of taxis,you can't..

Don't worry,I'll do that too

No,you won't

Are you going to take that money and make a down payment on a new taxi

That'll mean money coming in

Brick, the lot and the house can always wait.

Nothing do it

All I want you is to get you out of that job

yours into a home environment, no more waiting

But we don't have to wait

Not if you don't want to

Oh,Brick we could get married tomorrow,take an apartment

and both of us keep on working

Nothing doing

Listen,I got it all figured out.

We go tonight to the auto show and buy you a cab

We'd better hurry to,it's getting near their closing time

And tomorrow,you get the license, I get the apartment ...

We'll be sitting on top of the world!

Oh,let's do it, Brick

I guess I am, practically the luckiest guy in the whole world

It features a uni steel body, the drop-forged,rigid ex frame

-The action,hydraulic brakes. -Let's look at the motor

High compression valves and head with shafts

Six cylinders, eh?

Well, it's the only one any of the cabs have around here

OK

Can we have this one?

It has two seats in front

That's a police car,Madam

And what's all this stuff for?

Oh,the Police Department thought they dress up their display

with showing of some of their latest equipment

Holy Smoke,you could hold up a whole town with this stuff

Well,what do you think?

We are going to take this,baby

Name, please?

Make it ...

Tennant, Transportation company.

That'll do the sob right.

We'll get some snappy cards printed out

I can't, I have to go up early in the morning, church

Church on Wednesday?

The anniversary of my mother's death

Oh I'm sorry...I'll pick you up before seven

Joe!

Little Joe you are lending a bad penny

Howdy,kid? I'm glad to see you!

How's the red head

- When did you get in? -A while ago

-Been waiting long? -Not long,a couple of hours.

Still the same old sourpuss,ah You haven't changed a bit

Come on in.Tell me all about it.

Nothing very fancy but what's mind yours,Joe

Make yourself to home

Still eating apples, eh?

- Do you want one? -Yes, thanks.

Has it kept the doctors away from you?

That's a lot of baloney

I eat them because I like the sound, when you bite in to them

You bunk here,the blankets are in the closet.

Lucky you blew in tonight, tomorrow is my last night here

Lost your job?

The same old Joe every time every time a man moves it got to be down

I am getting married

Some people recommend it, but why go looking for trouble

Not with this girl she is perfect.

Everything a guy could ask for

-Sure you're doing all right -I got no kicks

Own my own cab

and got 14 bucks the last two days

That's not hay

Trying to think when I saw 10 bucks last

I don't know it's got me.

What's got you?

The eat bowl

I get a job harvesting but there is too much weed

So they leave their set there to rot

So I blow out to the coast to get a job.

picking oranges

I find them setting fire on the ones they already got

It's a funny world.

People starving and there is too much food

You figure it

There is nothing wrong with you a job won't fix and I got it

A job? Do you know where I can get a job?

I sure do! From now on you are vice president of Tennant Transportation Company

Ah There is such as your own level

I am! I just bought another cab and I need a driver. The job is yours.

I sure could use it, Brick.I'll tell you the honest truth I'm clean

Hey? You still have a cab driver's license?

-It expired =We'll get you another one

No red tape any more

There is a new team at City Hall.

They got rid of all grabs. The cops in this town are aces,every one of them

Ah ??

I'll promise you this

Starting tomorrow that eat bowl turns into a good luck piece

Good night, Joe. Good night, Brick.

Hey? You are leaving the cab out all night?

Yeah,I got to pick up my girl first thing in the morning

At 6:45 a.m..

We've got a big day ahead of us

I certainly must love you,luck, I just got up 7 o'clock in the morning

You didn't have to,I could have taken another cab

Figuring how to grab with another cab driver

and just when we are about to get married

And that for nothing

Go ahead,honey,I wait here

- Anything I can do for you? -Maybe.

Don't shoot!

Move them down

Hurry

What was that? Take a look Joe

Don't move anyone

Don't move!

Or you'll get the same thing

Come on.

Seen nothing and you know nothing

Understand?

Look at that taxi!

It sure is

Don't stand there do something.Get the police

You know being in that church so quiet and peaceful

Seem that we should get married then

We could have if we had the license

I get it,you worry where we're going to live

Where to Madam?

Springdale lunchroom driver

If I'm not not there by 8 o'clock no wedding thus for the Tennants

Don't worry

That's one bell that's going to ring,hot or cold

That's it Chief,the coroner is here now

He said he died instantly

Right

Send some cars around to the Apollo theater

I want those witnesses brought here,all of them

Yes,Sir

Two murders in 12 hours

Last night, the Automobile Show

Just now, the Apollo Theater

We got to stop this

Everett, I put you in charge

Three men cleaned out the safe

killed a watchman and got away in a taxi cab one of them drove

There are 120 licensed taxi cab drivers in this city

Check up and see where each one of them was between 7 and 8am this morning.

And once we got some eyewitness who can identified the criminals

And I hold them here until I do identify them

Get going

I tell you I was right here at the station

I took a dame to 7: 28h ...

and stayed until 8: 10h.

May I see your license

Driver's name is Norman Cameron

His name is Norman Cameron

License 89 Check

Union Depot.

Leach reporting,driver's name is Peter Roxbury,licence 62

Cigar store,corner of Main and Saginor

Cigar clerk said that Roxbury was in here before 8 am

buying cigarettes

Regardless what he says bring him in

Were all the cabs here at 8 am this morning?

Right

No,there weren't at that Tennant wasn't

-John J. Tennant? -Yeah

What time did he check out this morning?

He did not bring his cab in last night

He still lives at 12 8tth street?

-Right. -Thanks

Come on. On your feet

I got no watch there is 4.80-dollar on the table,that's the works.

- Your name is Tennant? -No

This is his room isn't it?

If you guys got any argument with Tennant

that's your business,not mine

Cut short,we're the police.

Oh?

It still no go I don't want any tickets for your widows and orphan's ball

Come on, come on ...where is Tennant?

You are the cops,you know all the answers

Take a look around

-In under there -Don't get funny

Where is Tennant?

I'll tell you he moved out last night

I took the place over and I don't know where he moved to

Nothing here

Hey, Brick,the cops!

Why don't you say so

I am sorry,buddy,I hope I didn't hurt you

You'll probably survive

How would I know he was a cop

What's the idea breaking in a guy and wrecking his room

- Are you Tennant? -Sure I'm Tennant

All right boys,that's it

So we moved away,ah

Crime has got to stop in this county

That's why you people put me in the district attorney office for

But I can't do it without your help

There has been a murder

And you people saw it with your own eyes

The police are going to find the guilty men

But it's your business to identify them

All set to answering at the moment

Eight men are going to walk across in front of that wall

Six of them are reputable citizens

The other two maybe mixed up in this murders.We do not know

It is up to you to tell us whether they were.

We are not going to tell you whom we suspect and whom we don't

The identification must come from you

All right officer

All right,Gene

Hey,Sam

Be a good fellow and do your act for us

Again?

In the last week been identified twice as a pickpocket.

Once as a hold up man and your a slugged over the head with an umbrella

... for being a mercenary -Ain't that enough?

This time we've got something choice for you

Go ahead, Sam, be a good fellow

Too old.

All right, Tennant,you're next

Do not say I didn't warn you. Sure going to feel an old sap

Over there

Come on this way

Wait a minute

That’s him

That's the fellow

He don't look to me like

Sure it is

Everett is right

I'd know him any place,look at the red hair

Oh yes,that's one of them

I guess you're right.I didn't recognize him before.

Yes,that's the man!

Hey, wait a minute! What man

Who are these people? I'd right to know!

What is this all about?

Quiet!

She's right,that's one of them

One of what ?

Stand still and keep quiet

Just a moment,all of you sit down,please

This is extremely important

And I want you to be absolutely positive

Are you quite sure that this is the man?

I swear to it

All right

Let go give me a break these people are mixed up

They don't know what they are talking about

Take your hat of

That's the one they called Joe

Yes,and he is wearing the same leather jacket

That's the one who run up to the balcony

That's him

He put a gun in my back

These people are out of your head

All right,come on

Those witnesses were wrong I tell you I've never seen any of them before in my life

-Ever been arrested before? -Never,not me

All right, hold out your hands

You can't fingerprint me I'm no criminal

I got a right to know what you think I did

The charge is murder, murder in the first degree

Murder?

Murder!

You are crazy,do I look like a murderer?

This is just crazy. I'm a decent citizen!

I'm making you a wedding cake

You'll like that

I wouldn't be in a hurry

Looks to me like you got to a stand off

Don't worry,he'll be along,he just got stuck in a call somewhere

Was I in here last night?

Oh,yes and we don't want any trouble about it

If you start a disturbance

Ah? Who is starting a disturbance

Here she is

You're still looking for champagne

Look, I'm a reporter.

The Clarion,we want a statement

-From me? -How long have you known Tennant?

How do you like that she's going to get a picture in the papers

But big

Just a moment...

What are you talking about?

Don't pretend you don't know We found your picture in his room

What happened?

Is he hurt? Where is he?

You mean you haven't heard?

Heard what,where is he?

Your boyfriend, Tennant,he's been...

I mean the cops ...

It's tough break,kid,but there it is

Mary!

Taxi

Mary!

Police station

Hey, Mary!

And we went straight from the church to the restaurant

And he dropped me there at 8 o'clock

What makes you so sure of the time?

For it it is when I go on duty

We were to be married tomorrow.

You don't think that a man who is just getting married,would you?

Oh, Brick! Brick

I told them everything, that you were with me

Everything is all straightened out

I didn't want you to get mixed up in this

You can let him go now,can't you?

You don't have to keep him now,when you know

It's not up to me,young woman

You have the right to your story ...

But those witnesses all identified him.

Identified him?

That's impossible!

What do I have to do to prove to you where we were?

-Why won't you listen to me when . -Mary ...

... Those witnesses made a mistake

You can't blame the police for that

It was just a mistake.

It could happen to anybody.

Yes, but ...

Oh, Brick! They'll keep you here?

Just for for tonight.Then tomorrow I'll tell the judge

Did you find the apartment all right?

Yes,it's all ready for us

The chef makes us a cake.It's to be a party

Well ... I got the license

I'll be out of here in the morning

I do not blame you for trying to protect your sweet heart,child

... But I am put in office to protect society

Facts are the facts and that's all I have to go by

Eleven people all unbiased,unprejudiced with no axe to grind

Have identified these two boys as the murderers.

They saw them shoot the watchman

You can't eliminate the testimony of eye witnesses

But there were no eye witnesses.

It couldn't be,because Brick was not there.

He was with me.

I'm sorry, but you must admit

Their testimony is more unbiased than yours

I don't know if you don't believe me or just don't want to believe me

But those jurors are wrong

You've seen Brick,you've talked to him

It's your job to know criminals.

If you use your eyes,you see that Brick is not like them.

He couldn't kill a man.

It's out of my hands.

The jury is the only people

The jury would believe me.

They would know that I'm not lying.

They'll know that Brick is no murderer!

Yes, sir.

I was at Springdale Lunchroom at at 8am

and Brick was with me every minute before that

That's all

Miss Roberts,

earlier in this trial you told us being at the automobile show the night before

Will you tell the jury that again,please

We went there to buy another cab for Brick

And prior to that you were at Sunny Side Park

looking to a lot to buy,is that right?

Yes, sir.

As a matter of fact, the night that you and Tennant went to the automobile show

The police exhibit was robbed,was it not?

Yes, but ...

And did not Tennant make the remark that with all those guns

... a fellow could hold up a whole town?

You are just trying to make these people believe

... That Brick robbed the exhibit to get money to buy a lot

I'm not trying to make up anything of the sort Miss Roberts.

The jury draws its own conclusions.

You testified that Tennant called for you a little before 7 am

-Is that right? -That's right

You also heard Tennant testify

that it took him at least 20 min to drive from your house to the church.

Yes, sir.

How long would you estimate

it took you to drive from the church back to the restaurant?

About the same time

Another 20 min.

Yes, sir.

So that accounts for 40 minutes of the hour you claim Tennant was with you

Yes, sir.

In other words...you were in the church for 20 min.

I think so

Miss Roberts,will you tell the jury what you did in the church?

We...

I went in ... I went over to a pew

Where was Tennant while you were in the pew?

He was waiting for me at the door

Go on

I stayed there a little while

I took some flower Brick had given me and I put them on the altar

Yes

Then I went back and joined Brick at the door

Miss Roberts,

while you were in the pew,your back was turned towards the door,wasn't it not?

Yes, sir.

So for the 20 minutes in the church

You can't actually say that you saw Tennant standing at the door?

No Sir ...

And that 20 minutes would have been plenty of time

for him to walk around the corner and join his accomplishes

and still get back in time to waiting for you when you came out

- It wasn’t that -But it would have been time,wouldn't it?

But he didn't,he was waiting for me

How do you know he was?

You don't have to see something to know it

From where I sit I can't see the judge,sitting on the bench

but I know his there just the same

I move that the witness’s remark would be stricken from the record

So ordered

Ms. Roberts, is it not true that you are in love Tennant and plan to marry him?

Of course

That's all

That's not fair.

He is trying to make you think I'm lying because of that

And I am not

We are just plain people like you are

Every word I told you was the truth

You got to believe me

I move that the witness’s remark be stricken from the record

So ordered

There they are now back

Here goes the murder jury

Pretty soft here living at state expense

Hey, JB

How is it going?

Sorry, gentlemen,but the law doesn't permit me to discuss

My Goodness!

A personal scare to rise children when you can see what they can grow into

If I thought my boy will ever grow like those murderers

I'm just doing a paper to read to my club

When we put criminals like that away we set an example

Better say it's a third man

Think of him this still loose with all those guns

The whole system is wrong

People like us are not qualified.

Look at me,I'm a book keeper.

What do I know about evidence and Law Courts

And yet they are asking me to decide

That's not right I can't decide

The judge should do that.

It's his job!He understands these things

It's been a harrowing experience for all of us

Harrowing

But after all our system of jurisprudence is a well tread one

But if you ask me if we are pretty lucky to get a clear cut case like this

where everything is out in the open

Ah,you shouldn't say that

The judge said not to form any opinion

A defendant in a criminal action ...

is presumed to be innocent,

until the contrary has been proved...

beyond reasonable doubt

You are instructed that the people and the defendant

Are entitled to the individual opinion of each juror...

on the issue of fact in this case

You will now retire to the jury room

and when you have reached an unanimous opinion

you are to return into court with your verdict

Well..

Well, folks

I guess the first thing to do

sit down take a ballot and see how we stand

Is that OK with all of you?

Yeah

All right

You know JB shouldn't be a pleasure of knowing you

We'll have to get together again soon

Fine,why not come over to the club for lunch one day

Nothing doing,you come over to my club.

And we will be out here within an hour

They let you go right away,don't they,when you are acquitted?

Yes, of course.

What makes you think we are going to be acquitted?

What else can happen?

Mary told them ,you told them I told them

Don't let them worry you,darling, nothing is going to happen to you

We told the truth.

The jury is coming down

Already?

See,I told you

They know.

You know,what I'm going to do

I'm going to get me the biggest steak they got

Oh,it's going to be all right, isn't it? I mean the jury

You never know what a jury will do

but even if they go against us,we'll make an appeal and go to a higher court.

What is your verdict? Guilty or not guilty?

Guilty

... As charged

I will remand the prisoner to the custody of the sheriff

Until 10 am tomorrow morning

When I shall pass the sentence

Until then this court stand adjourned

They'll bring the men here first,Miss

Thank you.

How over strained these trials...

Oh, Brick!

Brick,darling!

We'll file an appeal, we'll go to the Governor

That's discussed.

I never stopped fighting for one moment

I guess,you'll have to,honey

Because I can't do very much up there

When I heard the verdict yesterday, I...

It was kind of punch drunk like have been hit by a mallet

I'm not so fuzzy now

I think a little more clearly

You got an idea?

Not yet but I...

I got my feet back under me

This is a free country

It..

it is just impossible for a couple of innocent guys

like Joe and me to get a raw deal like this

Our laws are made to protect people like us not to hurt them

All right,boys,the judge is ready

Mary you stay here,will you, I don't want you

And it’s therefore the sentence of this court

that you'd be removed to the state penitentiary

where at sometime during the third week in March,

you shall in accordance with the laws of this state,

be submitted to electrocution until you are dead

And may God have mercy on your souls

Brick, what you said that something happening

It will happen believe us

It's got to

I'll keep on working,I'll never stop.

I'll find out the rief

They'll admit they are wrong,the judge the jury,the witnesses, it's all of them

In some room in this the world there are three men that did the thing

I'll find them,I don't know how and where, but I'll find them,I'll promise you

Have faith, Brick,keep on believing

You know, I am going to get me a grapefruit farm some day

What for? You get a good crop

and along comes the frost and you are broke

You better stick to being a cop,it's much safer

-Good Morning, Mary. -Good Morning, Dan.

Come in,come in,it's warmer inside.

You'd better sit down

- How is Brick? - I'm going to see him today.

Oh,say will you take him some of these McIntoshes

they were just picked yesterday,still hard

Thank you, Dan.

Now I got to do some more shopping.

I leave my bag with you and call back for the apples later

is that all right ?

Sure, I'll watch it

Say, you look awful tired. You are getting plenty of sleep?

Dan? How can I sleep?

I have to see the witnesses, talk to them ,try to make them realize

That's why I was transferred to the night shift so I could have the days free

There is no one else to work, you know that Brick has no family

Yes, but ... you mustn't get sick.

I won’t get sick

I can't

A bit chilly this morning

Hands up.Everything

It's a hold up

Stop breathing

Nobody move!

Nobody

OK, boys

Call the alarm! Call the police

-Slow down -What's the idea

Quiet say nothing and nothing will happen

Okay, we get out her

If you are not going,nothing is happening you see

Dan ...? What's happened?

Bank hold up,three men pillaged the bank

Shot a policeman and broke my window

-Three men -Yes

-What did they look like? -I don't know,I didn't see them

A hope maybe ...

Get me my apples.I'll be running along

"the taxi started like a shot".

I got it

I've been all through that transcript backwards and forwards

and all the witnesses say the same thing about the taxi

Taxi?

Don't you also remember that the taxi took off with a terrific speed?

That's right

A regular cab can't start up like that it can't do better than 50miles per hour

Maybe 25 on second ... but never hits over 45

I do not know what you mean,darling

Somebody got a cab with a special motor,a high speed motor

Find that taxi and you got the man

Oh, Brick, I'll go right to work on it.

Here,you go, Brick.There don't seem to be any bombs you know

Thanks

You remember everything.

I got some of them from Dan, they are McIntoshes

Nice and hard too

How do you like that?

-What is it? -Right in the apple,a bullet.

-A bullet? -A revolver bullet

Brick,will you slide through there

Maybe.Why?

Slide through.

-Where did it come from? -It may have come straight from heaven

Brick,darling there was another hold up this morning.

A bullet broke Dan's window and must have lodged..

If that means what I think it does...

Sorry Ms. Roberts, but the chief of police is all tied up today

But if you leave me your number I'll phone you

-But this is important,very important -I am sorry

It's just what I thought, Miss. Roberts.

The District Attorney has a full calender all day long

If you tell me where I can get in touch with you..

But I've got to see him!It's urgent!

It just can't be done, Ms. Roberts.I am sorry.

Lieutenant, there is a lady there waiting to see you

-I'm sorry -I got to see you,it's terribly important

- Not today, maybe tomorrow -But this won't wait,you got to see me now

All right come on

Now, Miss ...

It's about Brick and Joe.

Sorry, but I'm not even resigned to the case no more

But what has that to do with it. You are policeman, Lieutenant.

I am a member of the department.

I take orders. I do what I'm told.

But if I brought you positive proof they were innocent

Here

There is no shadow of doubt that the bullets was fired from the same gun

Are you assigned to this bank case, Lieutenant?

No,sir but

The bullet proofs Brick's innocence.

It proofs that the same man committed both crimes

He couldn't have fired that gun this morning

This time he had an alibi you can't question

You gave it him This time he was in jail

Ms. Roberts,

I can understand that may interpret to mean that

... Because you want to. Actually it means no such thing

How can you even say that? It was even the same weapon?

It is very obvious.

We know that the third man in the theater robbery got away

And since we found no weapons with Linden and Tennant

It's only natural to assume that the third man still has them

That he planned the bank robbery

and then enlisted the help of two other men

When you find me the three men in the bank robbery

among them you will find the third man in the theater.

When we find those three men we'll have all the men in the theater case

That bullet has changed the whole things in my mind about Tennant and Linden

Are you implicating that you don't think they are guilty?

What I think is of no importance

It just seems to me that with this new evidence you

have enough reasonable doubt to get a stay of the execution

-For what?

Give me time to find the men who robbed the bank

Are you out of your mind,Lieutenant

You expect me to have the execution of two proven guilty men

postponed indefinitely?

You want to kill them and then find out that they are innocent.

Is that what you want?

The law says that they are guilty.

The jury has convicted them and my job is getting convictions

If you have anything else to say, take it to the chief of police

New evidence convinced me that something

awfully phoney happened to Tennant and Lynden

And it got to be a stay of the execution while I prove it

Wait a minute

There hasn't got to be anything of the kind,that's the DA's job

My job is collecting evidence, what he does with it is his headache

I'm trying to run the police department

I've gone to the DA

he says his jobs is only getting convictions

I've come to you and you tell me your job is only collecting evidence

Seems to me both you men are following rules too closely

Forgetting you are dealing with human beings

For 20 years I've been a cop

and I thought I was doing a good and honest job of it

But you and the DA don't let me feel that way any more

I'm turning it in,Chief.

In the case of the people versus John.T. Tennant and Joseph Linden,

it is the opinion of the Appeal Court

the judgment of the lower court be affirmed

-Hello. -Jimmy! Come in.

Thanks

-Sure I didn't get you out of bed,Mary. -Of course not

Boy!! ... I bet Brick likes this when he sees it

Say Mary, some of the guys and me was talking

you know how it is, felony for little things like apples and cigarettes

For instance you take Brick.

He ain’t making any dough, so we kind of thought that

How we took up a collection and got 2 bucks

Oh, Jimmy,that's very sweet of you

Well,that's all right ... it wasn't me, some of the gang got talking

- See you some other -No,you stay here

Oh, Lieutenant.Something happened? No, but I want to talk to you.

This is Jimmy.

Lieutenant Everett is a friend of Brick's

Hi,sunny

A cop?

That's all right, Jimmy,he is on our side

Come sit down

I'm glad you dropped in, Lieutenant.

Since we got no round the similarity of the bullets

I've been thinking thinking all day on the other end that Brick was so sure of

Taxi with high speed motor

Yah,there might be something be something to that

If we find that taxi,would leave us to the men

Let me see now

It'd be too dangerous for them to keep the cab,they probably tuck it away

It certainly is worth a try

There is only one drawback, that's why I came to tell you

I've just been suspended from the force

Suspended? I am sorry...

Don't worry about that the only thing that's bothering me

I won't have any men to help search for the cab

Of course you and I could do it ourselves but that will take time

We haven't any time how long Brick has

Eight days

Mary,if we go about this thing systematically.We can find that cab.

We search every district in and around town

-Me and the boys will help you. -Thanks very much,Jimmy

Even if I am suspended

I've still got some good friends in the force

and they will help us all they can

Will you to stop reading that letter over and over

I can recite it for you, word for word.

I've heard it often enough.

Everett and I spend all day long, going through garages and junkyards

It's just the question of time

Lay off

"Time," she says.

She is worried about time.We are the ones who have no time

Take it easy will you,they know what they are doing

They know nothing,any more than you do

You are walking right up to that chair this minute

and all you do is sit there and take it easy.

You won't take it easy when they strap you the belt

You are still conscious then you know

They give a few seconds to let you know what's happening

Will you take it easy then?

That's what licked you ever since you were a kid

You got to keep on fighting

You got to keep fighting inside yourself

Old man,everything you know is right

When I was just a kid,I was standing on a street corner with my old man

watching a parade go by,band's playing

He put me up on his shoulder so I could see the flag

He said to me:

"You know, son, is not just a flag,it's a symbol ..."

It's a symbol for millions of people all over the world

It's all their hopes and beliefs

It's freedom, justice.

All the things men fight for

And all those people are wrong?

Warden,has he had words from the Governor?

Sorry, Tennant,there is no word yet

Oh,I thought maybe..

We have to move you boys

Give it to me straight warden

Are you taking us to the last stop?

I'm afraid so

Of course there still a chance that the Governor will stop it.

For us?

Perhaps since

Hey,Warden

-Got a new boarder -Stop it boys

They are your friend,warden

-They get a private room this time -That's right

This is one is yours.

Hey, you are the taxi drivers?

Yeah.That's us

Hey,God,how about my music?

Who is next?

We can toss for it

We both go out tonight.

And tomorrow night ...

It's us

They are not going to do it to me

I won't let them

Only a coward kills a man who can't defend himself

You!

You're a coward.

You are a dirty murderer and a coward

Everyone of you guys hide behind the uniform

Hide behind the law.

You are all cowards,because you're going to murder me tomorrow

Well? Why don't you do it now

Right now,when I can fight back

-There shouldn’t be -We all fight down

This is my life! What right has it to you,boys!

I want to fight back

Come on over here

Give it and tell me to get over it

Do it now,right now

Thank.That's what I wanted, chance to really kill someone

Sent a proof to you I'm a really murderer

Another one turned yellow

What do you mean yellow?

He meant what he said

Fight those guys with his bare hands

He's afraid of nothing

Not even of dying

You don't hear me say anything.

I'm afraid

My inside is shut

But Brick said ...

He's afraid of nothing

He's a man

Brick, it's not over.

We'll find that cab. We are still hunting.

Everett thirty now,we'll find it.

What good will that do?They are out to get me and they'll do it

If they find those guys,

I sworn on a stack of Bibles of my own height that they did the murder

It still wouldn't do any good

The law can't admit it is wrong

Brick ..

Don't talk like that

That isn't you,I don't know you again

It's me all right

I've grown up, that's all.

A man has to grow up before he dies,don't he?

Sure it's right

There isn't any ball chasing us

Brick,don't talk like that, I won't let you,it's not over

Do you remember what I tell you, Mary?

We've got no chance us little people

Brick, do not change! Brick,don't change stay the way you were!

I'm still fighting.I haven't given up.

Brick,we'll find a way.

Don't look at me like that Brick!

Tell me that you still love me,tell me

I am licked

Every commercial garage, every second hand dealer

every junkyard

They still have a little while until tomorrow night

Oh,Mary, if we had a year I wouldn't know where to start next

They either got that cab out of town or they hidden it so well

There is no chance for us, the little people.

What's that?

Nothing something Brick said

Mary! We found it, we found it!

You what?

The cab,we found it,we got it

Oh, Jimmy!

It's in factory Dean,drive on, I'll show you where it is

You're right Jimmy. It is a 12-cylinder motor

Oh,Jimmy,Jimmy,darling

Look! Look here!

There is another gadget stolen from the police exhibit,Mary

Mary,hold this

Look,this leads to a decoder it's used to decode police broadcast

Let's see if we can find out who brought this wire

It says: "Crandall"

Are you Mr Crandall ?

What is the meaning of this?

I'm Lieutenant Everett. I need some help very urgent

Could it not wait until the morning?

No,it couldn't

The trade mark shows that this is your wire

Certainly

- Do you sell much of them? -Very little

Could you give me a list of all the dealers who stock it?

It would take some time

We’ll help you.We got to have it by morning

- Have you got any wire like this? -Sure

How much do you want, first caller we ever had?

-Thank you very much. -Not at all.

Have you got anything else you don't want?

That was the eleventh place

Who else have we got left?

Just Joe Taylor.

The Phone Street radio supply store, two more and then we are finished

Good afternoon.I'll be with you in a minute

-What can I do for you? - Have you got any wire like this?

Sure.How much?

Now,where is that wire gone

Damned that boy.

Wait a minute maybe Joe left it in the back

- Joe? -My son.

He does the repair work

-It won't take you a minute -I'll give you a hand

All right.

I told that boy he couldn't go away until he got everything tidied up

Is he going on a trip?

Nothing seem to worry him lately but getting away from here

Says he can't have a good time in Springdale,

and got to get to New York.

Him and that good for nothing pair Ed Walsh and Frank Burke.

It's enough to drive an old man crazy

See who he is writing to?

-How much did you say you want? -About four feet

-All right -Sold a lot of it,don'tyou?

Not that important

JOE TAYLOR, TRACY HOTEL, NEW YORK.

I do not know what Joe does with it

Young fellows today don't have to trawl the markets where we used to

He's getting in a bad company that's what does it

Here you are,that'll be 80 cents

Thank you very much.

Don't mention it Thank you

Was I right?

Must be his son,all right,the envelope said

"Joe Taylor, Tracy Hotel, New York. "

We must have enough evidence to get a delay now

Mary,we haven’t got a thing unless we can find Taylor,Burke and Walsh

We either got a confession or identification

We got to do it all by ourselves.

But how?

We can be in New York in two hours.

Lieutenant, I have no authority to make arrest on suspicion.

If I got a request from your department to pick these men up I'll do so gladly

Yes It's the police Springdale on the wire

Hello.

Hello chief,this is inspector Cavanaugh Homicide Squad, New York City

One of your officers is here Lt. Everett.

He wants me to pick up three men

That's what I wanted to find out

All right,Chief,thanks

What did he say?

He's sending a man down on the night train to investigate

Train But they are scheduled to die,midnight

I'm sorry,Lth,but it has to be a certain routine,you know that

Routine?

Within a few hours those men are going to die

You have to arrest anyone who commits a crime, don't you

Then you better send some men with me

because I'm going to find those men and if they try to shoot me..

That’s a crime.

You can't go there, I won't let you

You can't stop me.I learned something about police routine myself Inspector

I can go where I please and you've no warrant to hold me

And if I want to break into that gangster's room

and get shot apparently you can't stop that either

The you have to arrest them

Without waiting for your warrant

Is Mr Joe Taylor registered here ? From Springdale

Who is calling?

No one,I mean it's a surprise, I'm his cousin

-The 2829. -Thank you.

Who is that?

She wanted to surprise him, she is his cousin

That's what she says.You know the rules.

No one goes upstairs there without being announced.

Yes,Sir

What was that dame's name Colton,or Dalton or Bolton?

I remember we were in a joint in the village

and the cheque was 50 bucks.

What's the difference,we are here to spend and having fun

What more can you ask out of a life,eh

Who is that?

Now we can find out. Answer

Not me

Hello?

Yah,it's him.

Who is she? I ain't got any cousins

Dame,she says she is my cousin. She is on her way up.

Always a pleasure to meet any of your folks,Joe

- Will you let her in? -Sure, why not?

Who is there?

Maid.

All right, boys.It's the police. Come on out

You want us? Come and get us?

All right step out from behind that door before I'll drill you through it

- Keep moving - Don't shoot,he will hit me

-Where are the other one -What other one

Search him

Come on boys there is no time for stalling

we'll do this for the three of you let's not fool around

Look out

Search the room,take them out.

Inspector Cavanaugh speaking.

Get me the chief of police in Springdale.Right away.

There they are right from the police exhibit at the Auto show.

Hello Chief. Your man Everett hit it right on the nose.

We got the guns too

He wants you to bring them right back to Springdale

Tell them to round up all the witnesses I'll be there in two hours

No questions,those are the man who robbed the bank

That's him,that's the fellow, now that I see him I know him

He is the one

Call the governor!

Do not let too late ...

Thanks, Governor.

Did they stop it? Is he all right?

Yes Mary they are safe.

That's right,no need to cry

There has been no harm done

No harm done?

Oh,you fool,you smug contended fool!

Up there is a man who believed in truth, honesty and fairness.

Oh,he is still here to breathe and feed.

But what's inside in him is dead.And you killed him

No, there is no harm done

You can bring them in now.

Get in here, please.

The papers are all in order now,boys

You are free men

The warden will release you

I want to wish you both the best of luck

I hope you understand that I only did my duty

Good luck.

Thank you.

Good luck, Tennant.

Thanks

Come on, Mary. Come on, Joe.

Well, I can't say I blame him.

I convicted two innocent men

Now I have to try to convict three guilty one

Probably maybe a whole lot tougher
