Hey,

heat. Hey.

Wait, what?

Tell Melody to come here. But get

moving.

Somebody wants to see a melody. So tell

them to look.

>> Yeah. Well, you'd better look. Standing

right over there.

>> Groundome. Gruesome. I'm so glad to see

you. When'd you get out?

>> Relax, kid. Relax. Rode the rods all

night to get here.

>> All swelled to break out.

>> Good behavior.

Where can we talk?

>> Outside. Come on.

>> Hey, you. Where you going?

>> Outside. This is my pal.

>> You're on the I

>> Yeah, I know. I'll be back. Maybe.

>> Be back in 10 minutes or you're out of

business.

>> With you in town, that cannon job don't

mean nothing. Do you have anything in

mind?

>> Yeah, something really big.

>> What is it? ain't far. Only the big boy

ain't okay me yet.

>> You okay me?

>> Yeah.

>> Yeah, that's what I figured.

>> Sounds like an interesting setup.

>> With you in on it, it's worth a million.

Big stuff grows in strange places. E

Melody here. It grows out of test tubes.

>> What do you want, Melody?

>> I want to see the doctor. I got the

right guy to handle that job for.

>> What is your friend's name?

>> Gruesome,

>> isn't he?

Come in. Our

employer is in the midst of an

experiment. Your friend will have to

wait.

>> Go back and finish your job.

>> I don't need that job now.

>> Go anyhow. I'll handle the doctor.

>> Okay. I'll see you tonight. Hh. Boy, am

I glad you're in town.

>> Make yourself comfortable, but please

don't touch anything.

>> No. Why?

>> It isn't advisable.

Heat. Heat.

Vel.

Valerie.

Come on. Come on, Mac. Help.

Oh, come on. Come on. Get up over there.

What's the trouble, Carney? Oh, just

another junk. This is the fifth time

I've called the wagon tonight. I'm on my

way down to headquarters to pick up Big

Tracy. Can I take him along for you?

>> Don't you appreciate Pat?

>> Well, where is he?

>> He's lying in the drawer of that joint

back there.

That's funny, Pat. Not enough alcohol to

have killed him. Yet no pulse and no

heartbeat.

>> So, what did the big lug die of? A

broken heart?

>> I don't know, but Doc Ross can tell you

tomorrow after the autopsy. I've been in

this rocket a long time, and I've never

seen anything like this before. You say

he was limp when you picked him up 10

minutes ago.

>> Limp is a play boy's alibi. 10 minutes

later, he's like this. Then it wasn't

time for Rick and Mortis to set in.

>> No time at all. Want to take a guess at

what's eaten him?

>> Yes, I could guess, but it wouldn't mean

anything. Except I think it's a case for

homicide.

>> Careful of your language, Frankie. He

died in my car. But he didn't get

whatever is wrong with him in your car.

>> Right. So, a corpse coming out of

Hangman's knots got to be murder, huh?

>> Probably. You say you found this on him?

>> Loaded for bear. And his suit had the

feel of a big house hand-me-down. Mhm.

That's sharp observing, ain't it?

Why don't you have Tracy take a look at

him? I think I will. But if he has the

answer to a drunk turning to stone, I

give up.

>> Think of anything.

Happened not once, but several times.

>> Thanks, Arch.

>> I wouldn't go in there now, Pat, if I

was you.

>> You mean I shouldn't go in there?

>> Nobody. Vick's got a VIP in there.

>> VIP? Vic? a very important personage.

>> In that case, I'll knock.

>> Excuse me, Dick, but I think I just

brought in a homicide. Anyway, he's a

mighty funny stiff.

>> Funny. I'll be right with you.

>> Come over to the morg.

>> Right.

>> I'm sorry, Dr. Tommitic. Go on.

>> For instance, when I'd arrive home at

night, I find figures lurking in the

shadows near my house.

>> Why didn't you report this sooner? I and

I hope that my wife and I were wrong

that these people weren't really

stalking me at all.

>> What makes you so sure they were?

>> And two attempts were made within a week

to run me down by car.

>> We have a lot of reckless drivers in

this town, doctor.

>> Yes, I know. But

>> why do you think someone wanted to kill

you?

>> I don't know. I have no idea.

Of course, like many scientists, I'm

working on new and rare formula at the

university. All the

>> very little we can do for you, doctor,

but offer you police protection. I just

like troubling you.

>> I am worried.

>> Well, Chief, this isn't a case for me.

So, if you don't mind,

>> run along, Dick. We'll take care of the

doctor.

>> I'm sorry I can't stay, but my assistant

has a slight case of homicide on his

hands. Good luck.

>> Now, see here, doctor, let's review the

facts.

Pat.

Pat,

>> did you get his number?

>> Sure. Sure. What happened, Pat?

>> Oh, you're asking me. I'm sitting here,

C writing out this report on the stiff.

All of a sudden, blackout. Something hit

me here. A crowbar, maybe, or a small

bulldozer. I don't see how anybody could

have got in here, Dick. Frankie put the

stiff on this slab. He was out cold just

like he is now. The stiff the mug. Where

is he?

>> Looks like he had a drunk who woke up.

Pat, he just outboxed you. That's all.

>> Out fox me, huh? I tell you he was dead.

Oh, don't look at me like that, Dick.

You know I haven't had so much as a

short beer since I joined the force. I

tell you, I brought in an absolutely

dead stiff.

>> Okay, but if that's true, then you're

just confused. There's a stiff in the

other room.

>> What? Why didn't you say so? Come on.

What I want to know is who moved that

So he outf foxed me, did he? What's that

make you?

>> I admit it, bad he tricked me, too. One

minute he's dead, the next he slugs me.

Tricked you and bamboo. Smart man.

>> Smart? He's weird. I tell you, if I

didn't know better, I'd swear we were

doing visit with Boris Caroff.

>> Looks that way.

>> Melanie,

did you find him? Would I'd be back here

without him if I did.

That stuff he got must have killed him.

>> Nonsense. It was one of the early

experiments of the doctor's medical

formula.

>> But what did it do to him?

>> Potent, but harmless. It just rendered

him helpless.

>> Helpless? Oh, that's great. Gruesome

helpless and the cops hot on his trail.

>> Exactly. So, he is of no use to us any

longer. If he does come back, you must

tell him the deal is off.

>> What are you talking about? That guy

knows his way around.

>> He is no good to us now. We must be rid

of him. The doctor?

>> The doctor will be disturbed by your

stupid chatter. You'll get rid of holes.

>> No. No. Please. Please, Gru. He didn't

mean it. He needs you. We all need you,

Gruesome. Please.

>> Exactly. As the doctor just said, you

know your business, but I know mine. You

>> You mean you've spoken to the doctor?

>> Yes. I've had a talk with him.

>> You're a disgraced doctor of science,

correct?

>> Yes, but I

>> No, but the doctor stumbled on a great

record, but he needs me to make it work

for him. So, from now on, you two will

do exactly what I say. Now, get in

there, keep your mouth shut, and listen.

Tomorrow is the most important day in

your stupid lives.

Two and a half minutes to go.

Hey, Harry. Come here. I told you to get

that cat out of here, not get him out.

Afternoon,

Mr.

>> Hello, Mr. Stone.

>> 10 2030. How's Mr. Tracy?

>> Well, he's fine, thanks. Bye. Goodbye.

Look at him. There's something wrong

with him

and him.

You heard

Victory timed it perfectly. The air is

clear. Lock the door.

>> Hey, gruesome. I wonder if you look as

silly as they do.

>> Lock the door.

Uh, pard me, Mac, do you mind?

You see this?

>> What's the matter, buddy? Dandra

>> Mallerie.

>> Yeah. Yeah. Come on. Go.

Dick Tracy homicide quickly.

Hello Dick. Listen, I'm inside the Grove

Street branch of the First National

Bank, witnessing a robbery.

>> Dead,

frozen. Uh-oh.

>> Okay, honey. Don't lose your nerve.

We'll be right there.

>> This is Tracy. Notify all cars in the

area. Fourth and Grove. Bank robbery.

First national

Thanks. Let's get out of here.

Of

>> course, there was a diamond in that

voice.

>> Oh, look. It's going.

Okay.

probably die before he hit the ground.

Move these people back. Move back a

little, folks. Come on. Move back now.

Come on. Move back.

>> Take care of everything, Jim. Okay,

Jake.

>> Tess. Tess. Come out of it.

>> Come out of what? I'm all right.

>> Well, she's alive anyway.

>> If I hadn't been in the booth, I'd have

gotten it, too. But you see,

>> wait a minute. Aim it on Thursday or the

bank will be forced to foreclose.

>> But I tell you, I can't.

>> You heard the man say they want a cash

bonus?

>> Oh, that's it.

>> Mr. Crannle. Mr. Crannle.

>> The dollars worth of change, please.

>> Yes, of course.

>> Thank you.

You'll have to leave now, sir. It's

3:00.

>> You see, pal, you were only half dead. I

don't question your word, Mr. Tracy.

There undoubtedly was a bank robbery,

but not here. Not here.

>> They sent you to the wrong bank.

>> Mr. Thanks. Over $100,000 has

disappeared.

>> Oh, that's fine.

>> Right under our noses.

>> What? This is the most amazing thing

I've ever seen.

>> 2 minutes ago, everybody was paralyzed,

frozen, stiff, and now look at them.

They're perfectly normal.

>> No one leaves until everybody's been

questioned. Line them all up over there.

>> Right. This way, folks.

>> How many men in the stickup crew?

>> Two.

>> Did they wear a mask?

>> No. One was coarse looking and the other

one was

>> Fine. Tell me later. How long was it

between the freezing act and their

entrance?

>> About a minute.

>> You mean this knock house stuff was

instant in right away?

>> Well, it couldn't have been more than 2

minutes at the most.

>> How do you feel?

>> All right, Mr. Tracy. That's what's so

darn queer. I still can't believe I was

out cold for 12 or 14 minutes. Just wait

till I tell my wife. When I get

>> Well, right now, I'd rather you told me

what you were doing and how you felt

when this stuff hit you.

>> Sure. You bet. Like I was telling your

sidekick here. I'm standing right here

watching the clock. See, not that I'm a

clock watching guy ordinarily. Skip it,

pal. Get to the pill.

>> Huh? Oh, yeah. Sure. Like I was telling

your sidekick. You see, it's my wife's

sister's birthday. And I says to myself,

I says, "Humpry, when you get home,

>> he was pulling down the shade."

>> Yeah, that's right. How'd you know?

Here. Like this. Like this. I was right

about there. No. Here, maybe.

>> Well, did you feel yourself slipping?

>> Nah, positively. No warning at all.

>> You think you were the first one

affected by this gas?

>> No. The first man to go was standing

right over there. But show me how he was

standing.

>> All right. As I remember, he was

standing right here with his coat open

like this. Now, that's enough. Take him

with you, Pat, and see if you can find

that man.

>> Come on.

>> Or was it like this? Relax, Gabby. Let's

find out.

>> I had one hand sticking out

>> now. Let's see. You've had everyone in

the bank checked on.

>> Everyone. They all have legitimate

addresses. No suspicious characters.

>> And you're having the screwy gas

analyzed.

>> Fred has what is left in the shell

casing. I expect a report any minute.

>> And the getaway car was stolen.

>> Picked up on the turnpike. No

distinguishable fingerprints.

>> The banking commission is panicky dick.

If this gets to the papers, they're

afraid of a wholesale run on every bank

in town.

I told you Tracy was busy.

>> It's okay, Sarge. Tracy wants to see me,

right?

>> Dick has nothing to say to the press,

Dan.

>> No, in that case, the press has a hot

word for him. It's headlines. Shall I

go?

>> It's okay, Sarge. Thanks. What I have to

say should be private, boys, for your

sake.

>> Spill it, Dan. We're busy.

>> I know. And stumped. Fellas, I was the

only news hawk to get to a certain bank

before you had everybody's mouth

buttoned up like a West Pointer on

inspection. How much do you know, Dan?

>> Remember the bank guide with the end of

Gab?

>> You can't print a word of it, Dan. Look,

Dick, I play ball usually, but not with

gas bombs. This will be the biggest

thing hit the streets since George

Patton broke the ball.

>> This is a war of a sort, too, Dan. A war

on small investors. If you break silence

before we can move in, no bank in the

state can escape a run on it. How long

do you want? 24 hours. I'll settle for

the four. That'll get me in the final

edition.

>> We don't have a thing in 4 hours.

>> Not bad, eh?

>> Right now, we haven't got a lead of an

in blood hound.

>> So then, I think my readers should know

what they're up for. Give us morning at

least, Dan.

>> Say, Dick, this is an absolutely unknown

chemical. We've given it everything.

>> Yeah. Why don't you look before you yap?

>> Unknown chemical. 20 people frozen to

the spot by absolutely unknown chemical

while bank is casually robbed of at

least 200 grand.

>> It was only 100.

>> Thanks. That much I didn't know. Until

morning, Dan, please. We don't sell a

morning paper dick.

>> Exclusive. Dan, you can sell it to the

syndicates.

>> To hit the morning rags, I'd have to

have all the details by 2:00 a.m.

>> 2 a.m. You hide binder. Well, that's

only 10 hours from now.

>> You're quick, chief.

>> Okay, Dan. It's a deal. 2 a.m.

>> Good luck.

I'm sorry, Chief.

>> I get it. That ferret could dig salt out

of Big Rock Candy Mountain.

>> This chemical is so new it isn't even

registered. Is that it, Fred?

>> Yeah, that's right, Dick. Think Dr.

Tommy at State University could spot it.

>> Sure. If anyone could.

>> Tommy, that's the man who was

complaining about threats on his life.

>> Yes, top flight physicist. Look, Chief,

with only 10 hours before the panic

hits, it's about

>> worth a try. What else have we got?

Well,

>> there's always Pat's living corpse, but

Oh,

>> that's a shot in the dark.

>> So is this. But if Tommy can tell us

what it is, we at least have a lead.

Oh, may I help you?

>> Yes, I'm Dick Tracy from headquarters. I

think

>> I'm so glad you've come, Mr. Tracy. Have

you any news of him?

>> Of whom?

>> Of Dr. Tomic. Isn't that why you're

here?

>> But I came to see him. Is anything

wrong?

>> Well, yes, but I I thought you knew.

He's disappeared.

when?

>> He left home early this morning and

hadn't been seen since. His wife was

very worried and I thought she reported

his absence to you.

>> It's the first I've heard of it. Are you

his assistant?

>> Yes, I'm Professor Learned. You will

find him, won't you, Mr. Tracy?

>> We'll certainly try. Can you think of

any reason why Dr. Tomic would want to

disappear?

>> No. Uh, what did you have in mind?

>> Nothing in particular.

Still, I'd like you to check any special

or secret formula he might have been

working on just to make sure they

haven't been removed.

>> Of course. Will you wait here, please?

>> I'd rather come along if you don't mind.

>> Oh, not at all.

>> Dr. Tomic always keeps his most valuable

formula in that locked cabinet. They're

quite safe there.

>> You have the keys, of course.

>> Yes, but I'm certain nothing has been

disturbed.

>> Would you open it anyway, please?

>> Very well.

You know what each of these bottles

contains?

>> I know they're chemical symbols, if

that's what you mean.

>> Not exactly. Could any of them say mixed

with another chemical form of dangerous

gas?

>> I hardly know. These particular ones are

in experimental stages. Only Dr. Tomic

could tell you that.

>> How about this clear liquid on the end?

What's its purpose?

>> I really don't know. Oh, it's so new. It

doesn't even have a name.

>> New? Huh? Is that so? But I'd like to

>> Oh, please don't touch anything, Mr.

Tracy. At least until Dr. Tomic returns.

>> If he returns, huh?

>> You mean there's a chance that he won't?

>> It's part of my job to see that he does.

You won't mind my taking a little of

this for testing?

>> Well, I I hardly know what to say in Dr.

Tomic's absence.

Perhaps we can test it here. In fact,

I'd be glad to test it for you.

>> I'd rather take it with me. Very well.

>> You see, there was a bank robbery today.

Some strange chemical was employed.

Everyone in the bank is transfixed,

frozen to the spot.

>> Startled?

>> Shock. You see, I work so close to

science. I have every reason to dread

the creation of such gases.

>> I didn't say it was a gas.

What else could it be?

>> I don't know.

But it was a gas.

Doesn't seem to stain or burn the

surface, does it?

>> No.

>> Anything in it that will hurt me if I

taste it?

>> I think not, but I can't be too sure.

>> Let's see.

Tastes like water.

>> Many chemicals do. Get me an empty

bottle and a rag, will you?

>> Professor Ernard.

>> Yes.

>> Could a man in Tommy's position be

leading a double life?

>> Hardly. He's one of the most respected

men in his profession.

>> Yet, he came to headquarters complaining

of attempts on his life the night before

he disappeared.

It's been my experience, professor, that

that could be the act of an innocent man

or of a man covering his tracks,

>> perhaps. But not Dr. Tommy. His whole

life is an open book beyond suspicion.

>> I guess you're right.

>> I know I'm right.

>> Well, thank you, professor. I'll be back

when I have this analyzed.

>> Very well, Mr. Tracy. But it isn't,

Walter.

>> Probably not.

You've been a big help. Goodbye.

>> Goodbye, Mr. Tracy.

I still say you didn't have to shoot

him.

>> But if he saw us coming out of the bank,

>> seeing and identifying weeks, maybe

months later are two different things.

You're just a trigger happy young mug.

You always were. Better get over it.

>> You're a fine guy to be boiling me out.

>> Useless killing's dangerous.

>> Well, it's about time.

>> Yeah, we thought maybe you took a part

of it.

>> Hardly.

>> That's good. Goose hates Welches.

>> I don't hate dead ones. Melody,

>> our employer is a man of honor.

There's one for you, one for you.

>> What are these? Valentine's?

>> The doctor is very businesslike. That is

your immuneration.

>> Well, it's kind of thin, is

>> not much, then gruesome got a bonus for

not killing a policeman.

>> How do you like that?

>> We don't like it. We don't like it at

all. Go back and tell your employer I'm

not an employee. I'm a partner. I want

50%.

>> What about me?

>> I'll pay you more than you're worth.

Goodbye, X-ray.

>> Well, I'll ask him.

>> No, tell him. 50% on everything.

>> Very well. Oh, uh, our employer told me

to tell you. He wishes you would not

come to the laboratory anymore.

>> At all?

>> At all?

>> I see. Tell him I'll do what he says for

exactly 15 minutes. Unless, of course,

you're back within that time with half

the take. Better hurry. X-ray

cruome. You're terrific.

>> Remember that Melody?

>> Sure. Sure. Sure.

>> We found him right about here.

>> Let's take a look around inside. Maybe

we'll get a wine on.

Hey, you.

>> It's him, Dick.

Yeah, that's the guy. All right.

Heat.

Heat.

Melody,

I think you think I owe him something.

Pat, where are you? Here.

>> Are you all right? H Yeah, it was him.

Take that drunken step. Where did he go?

He got away.

>> Well, that's a lead anyway. What

happened to you?

>> What happened to me? I was standing

right over there and all of a sudden I

was a

>> No, I'm not going to tell you.

>> Come on, Pat. What happened to you?

>> Okay. I was bit by a tiger.

>> Oh, that tiger.

>> You're sure that you can identify this

man? F?

>> Yes. I'm positive he's one of the bank

robbers.

>> Good. Now, if he'll only live long

enough to start talking.

>> Dick, we've rounded up some of the

people who were in the bank. They're out

in the hallway. Okay, Pat, bring them

in. Test, you better wait in the chief's

office.

>> All right,

>> test to identify him. Yes, but that's

not enough. We've got to find one of

those bank witnesses who saw him in or

around the bank about 2:45. Why 2:45?

Couldn't you have planted the bomb at

2:30 or even before that?

>> No. The janitor emptied the waste

baskets at 2:45. So, if anyone saw this

bird in the bank after that time, he

planted the bomb. Nurse, what's wrong?

Well, you can't die on us now. Get those

people in here, Pat. Quick.

>> Okay, folks.

Sorry, Vick. You'll have to leave. He's

much too ill to have anyone in here now.

But just 2 minutes, doctor.

>> I can't do it. He only has a 50/50

chance as it is.

>> Well, that's that. Have those people go

to my office, Pat. We'll do what we can.

>> Okay, folks. Let's go.

>> First of all, I want to thank you people

for coming. Now, I'd like to ask you a

few simple questions. Does anyone

recognize this man?

>> I'm sure I never saw him before. Well,

now I'm a bank guard, you see.

>> We know that.

>> Of course you do. And you know the bank

guards have to be observing. Now, if

that man was at the bank, it stands to

reason I'd remember him, don't it?

>> It does. Do you?

>> No. I uh could be wrong, Mr. Tracy. But

I think that man passed me at the bank

door. I think he was coming out as I was

going in.

>> You happen to recall what time that was,

Mr. Th?

>> Yes, I do. I looked up at the clock as I

came in. It was exactly 10 minutes to 3.

Good. Turn around, Luke.

>> Obviously, this man wearing the bandit's

clothes is not the bandit. This is a

drawing of the actual man. Would you say

you'd seen this man before, Mr. Paul?

>> I'm almost certain that's the face of

the man who passed me at the back door.

>> Thank you. Anyone else see him?

>> No.

>> No.

>> All right, that's all. Oh, one thing

more. Please don't any of you discuss

this case with the newspapers. That's

very important. In fact, I'd rather you

didn't discuss it with anyone for a day

or two. And thank you again.

>> We're going out now. Ah, but I'm coming.

>> I've still got 6 hours, Dan. And nothing

to say.

>> Nothing to say about a top flight

scientist who's missing.

>> Hello. You're talking Greek. Damn it.

Yes, Chief.

>> Don't give me that. You knew Tomic was

missing before I did.

>> Just a minute, Chief. I've got the human

ferret in my office. Tomic? Who's Tomic?

>> A physicist, my boy, with an assistant

named Learned. Remember? I'm giving his

disappearance a buildup tonight. Dick.

>> Wait a minute, Dan.

I'll call you later, Chief. You gave me

your word, Dan. And I still have 6 hours

left. Then you do think Tomic is

involved in the bank robbery?

>> I honestly don't know, but if he is a

and you publish his disappearance, it

might spoil everything for me.

>> All right, 6 hours, but I get first

break at anything you uncover. Right.

>> Right, Dan. Keep your nose clean.

>> Hello, Tess.

>> Hello, Dan. What's new?

>> Ask your boyfriend, Dick. This will

>> hold it, Fred.

>> Oh, you again.

>> Goodbye, Dan. Be seeing you in about 5

hours and 22 minutes.

Take this. The daughter.

>> I think I know what you were going to

tell me anyway. I should see a certain

professor at State University right

away. Correct.

>> Correct. And quick. And see you later,

honey.

>> But we had a date for dinner.

>> I'm having mine with a professor.

>> Oh, well, since it's only a professor,

>> a beautiful feminine professor.

>> And you expect me to be here when you

get back?

>> No.

>> Then I will be. That's what I thought.

>> Goodbye, Dick.

>> Goodbye.

>> Oh, where have you been? It's over an

hour since I talked with you.

>> I'm sorry. I had important business. You

look worried, dear. What's the trouble?

>> That chemical I stole for you. What did

you do with it?

>> I

I used it for my anesthetic experiment.

What do you suppose?

>> I suppose you either gave it or sold it

to a gang of bank robbers.

>> What are you talking about?

>> The police are analyzing the water I

substituted for the formula I stole for

you.

>> Well, what of it? The moment Dr. Tomic

returns, they'll know I substituted the

water. Oh,

>> we'll be far away by then.

>> What if he returns now? Tonight,

>> he won't. Irma,

>> you've done something to him.

>> He's perfectly safe.

He'll return home in due time. Quite

unharmed.

>> I can't I can't go through with it. That

detective, I can't go online to him. I

don't know how. It won't be for long.

>> He had hardly left when a when a

reporter came. He asked me so many

questions. I didn't know where I was.

>> Did he ask about Tommy?

>> Of course.

>> Splendid.

His disappearance will make headlines.

Tracy and his cops will be forced into a

manhunt that will leave us in the clear.

>> I won't help blacken the character of a

decent man. I can't.

>> Very well.

Tell them. Tell them everything. Is that

what you want, Irma?

>> Darling, no it isn't. Look, can't we do

something? Can't we go away now tonight?

>> Police have requested that I don't leave

town. Your friend Tracy.

>> Tracy? What?

>> I think I put that formula in the hands

of thugs. I placed it in the bank

myself.

>> You didn't.

>> You couldn't.

>> I had to. Wurma, I tell you with Tomic

missing, we're in the clear.

There isn't a thing to worry about,

dearest.

I'll drive you to within a block of your

house. What?

>> No, I'll walk to the camp stand. We

can't risk being the scene together.

Good evening,

>> Mr. Tracy. How did you get here?

>> It was easy. Illegal, too.

>> Illegal? What is?

>> By breaking into your place and

searching your things without a warrant.

>> I should think so. Why did you do it?

>> Why did you tell me I wouldn't find

water in that bottle?

>> You didn't.

>> You're a biochemist. Why try to pretend

you didn't know what was in that bottle?

You forget, Mr. Tracy. You tasted

whatever was in it. Not I.

>> I was so sure it wasn't water that I

>> Why?

>> Why?

>> Because I can see no reason why Dr.

Tomic would make such a substitution.

>> Neither can I. In fact, I don't think he

did.

>> But obviously, he had to. He and I are

the only two people

>> who have the key to that lock.

So, I say you made the substitution, not

Tomic. If what you found in that bottle

really was water, and you're not just

trying to trick me because of some

fantastic notion that I mixed up with

bandits, then all I can say is Dr. Tomic

put it there. I didn't. And uh might I

suggest that you spend your time looking

for him instead of badgering me?

>> I'm badgering you because I think you

know something about his disappearance.

Either you're shielding him or you're

shielding someone else.

>> Why? Why should I? Do I look like the

kind of person who goes around shielding

bank robbers and murderers?

>> Frankly, no. But I think you got in over

your head. And now you don't see any way

out but lying.

>> I'm not lying.

>> I think you are. Consider this,

Professor. Whoever got hold of that

formula will stop at nothing to keep it.

Murdering a bank guard is only the

beginning. Right now, they're accused of

murder. If you're involved in it, you're

an accessory to murder. And your only

chance of getting less than hung is to

play ball on the right team. But I tell

you, I don't know anything.

>> I heard you the first time. Just the

same. When I leave here, I advise you to

get in touch with someone.

>> Who?

>> Whomever you're shielding. Tell them

that no amount of money or fame or love

or whatever it is you're doing it for is

worth putting your neck in a noose.

It's a nice neck, professor. But that

murdered bankard had four kids. They

liked his pretty well, too.

You cover the back. If she doesn't come

out in 2 hours, go back to headquarters,

right?

Hello.

>> Hello, Lee.

>> You shouldn't call me here. And don't

call me by name.

>> I can't stand it. You You You've got to

take me away.

>> I tell you, there's nothing to worry

about, dearest. You'll feel better after

you've had some sleep.

>> I can't leave.

I'm going to tell them the truth.

>> You can't do that. Not yet, dearest.

It's risky. But perhaps we better leave

town tonight.

>> But I thought you said you couldn't.

>> Perhaps I can find a way. But you must

meet me at once and talk this out.

>> So you I know too much.

>> Very well, Mr. If we don't figure a way

out, I'll I'll go to the police with

you. But we must talk first, I'm not in

this alone. Meet me at Sixon Park in 10

minutes. Walk there and be sure you're

not followed. Goodbye.

>> You can't meet her, of course.

What are you doing here? I told you.

>> I'm telling you, you can't meet her. The

cops saw you in the bank. This is a

frame up between the girl and the

police. Oh, isn't she?

>> She's frightened and so are you. Listen,

I'll meet her. You're known to the

police, too.

>> I've handled them before. Give me the

keys to your car. All right, but don't

bring her here.

>> Oh, sure. Not say you spoke of a cottage

on Brand Lake. Yes, that's it. Take her

there. Route 76, cottage 14, just off

the road. Tell her I'll be up later

tonight.

>> You'll convince her she mustn't go to

the police.

>> Oh, yes. I must do that.

>> You're right. We must.

Gruesome.

Yeah. Take care of her. She's all I

have. Sure. Sure. I understand.

Heat.

Heat.

Better get rid of that car quickly. Why?

What's wrong with it? Where is she?

>> Picked up some bullet holes on the way.

She is dead. I told you to get rid of

that car. You You killed her.

You killed her. What do you suppose I

do? She was leaving Tracy directly to

you.

>> No, no, she wouldn't.

>> I say she was. But right now, we've got

to get rid of the evidence here. All of

it. You understand? Now, go start that

fire.

>> Must there be more killing?

>> Yes, we have to. We've got to get Melody

out of that hospital tonight and then

clear out of here.

>> I've been to the hospital. He's in a

coma. The doctor wouldn't even let him

be seen. He'll be dead by morning.

>> You're certain of that?

>> Certain as I can be.

>> Good. And we're in the clear.

>> You don't care about anyone, do you?

>> Yes. And if you want to stay alive,

you'll do as I say. Now, stop that fire.

I'll be inside.

>> You expect me to use that fire?

>> Call me when it's ready.

>> What would you do without me?

>> I'd even find Dan in romance if you

thought it would give you a little more

time.

>> Thanks, but he's already married to a

typewriter. There's one consolation,

though. Those crooks are just as worried

as I am. That killing that girl was an

act of coldblooded desperation. Do you

think Dr. Tomic had her shot? That's

anybody's guess. You trace the license

number. Sure. Or stolen plates. But if

you put two bullets into the back end of

that car, we'll pick it up in no time.

Time is something I'm fresh out of.

>> Dr. Carver could only fix up those other

two crooks so they could talk.

>> Said he'd call me in 10 minutes. It's

been 15.

This is Tracy. What about that smashed

up piano player?

What? When?

>> About 10 minutes ago.

>> Thanks.

>> Oh, no.

>> We could have sweated it out of that

guy.

>> But he had to go die on us, too.

>> Well, dead men tell no tales.

>> What did you say?

>> I said dead men tell.

>> But sometimes they do, Tess. Sometimes

they do. Where you going? See the chief.

Get on an idea that'll make Dan and his

papers think I'm a prime heel.

Here

he comes. Now's the time.

>> Isn't there some other way to

>> No, not unless you want to end up

joining Tomica.

Where's the good doctor?

>> Why in there?

>> Call the hospital.

>> Yes. No change.

>> Good. I'll stay here. It'll be know if

he's alive or dead. It's dangerous to

hide you here. Dangerous for whom? All

of us. Police have tried to trace the

driver of my car. Uh, I'll stay here.

Very well. There's a small bedroom in

there. You may use it. And there's

whiskey in my desk. True hospitality.

Oh, doctor,

why did you close that window? The smoke

from the incinerator. I see. Won't you

join me in a drink? I never indulge.

>> Uh-huh.

>> Doctor. Yes. Come on in and join me,

won't you?

>> No, thank you.

>> Come on in, both of you.

Listen, doctor. The smoke is blowing

away from that window. Now, what are you

trying to pull?

>> All right. All right, Gruesome. Hold

everything.

>> X-ray, get rid of that B.

>> I'll move X-ray.

>> Don't show me. Please.

>> News flash. Dangerous bank robbers

expected to be rounded up within 12

hours.

Homicide famous Dick Frzy has just

revealed that one of the robbers of the

Grove Street branch of the First

National Bank has been captured after

suffering severe injuries in a wild

chase by the police.

>> He's alive.

>> 5 minutes ago, Tracy reported that the

injured bandit will be able to talk by

morning. He added, and I quote, "When

this band talks, we will round up the

most dangerous gang of criminals in this

city's history." We now return you to

the piano.

>> That announcement saved your life,

X-ray.

>> What happened?

>> I need you. We got to get Melody out of

that hospital.

>> But that's a police hospital. Why not

leave him there?

>> Yeah. To talk and spoil a perfect setup.

No, we got to risk it.

>> What about him?

>> What about him? He's dead and Melody

isn't worse luck. Go on.

Evening. Evening. Got a Corporal Duckman

in 312. We came to pick him up.

>> Wait a minute.

What's the name of that surgeon again?

Major Allan, 291st General.

>> He's new to me.

>> So are you, fellow.

>> Just been transferred from out west.

>> Oh, well drawn up. Now, do you know how

to work it?

>> Like the fingers on the hand.

That's the gorilla. All right. They came

in an army ambulance. Give me the phone

puff.

This is it. They're on their way up.

Roger.

Don't stop them coming down either, pup.

>> You wait here. If anybody questions you,

remember where you're from. 281st

general. Right.

>> I'm sorry. No one allowed in there.

>> I have orders to take his temperature

every 4 hours.

>> Yeah,

>> that's right.

>> Well, in that case, I'll go in with you.

>> How are you, Melody?

Why do we bother getting birds like him?

Well, just so we can kill them.

>> Odd, isn't it? Yeah.

>> Lost

>> me hardly. Just waiting for them to uh

just waiting.

>> Oh,

>> hey. What's the matter?

>> This man is running a dangerously high

temperature. You better send to the

doctor.

>> Not me, buddy. My orders ought to stay

right here.

>> That case, I'll do it myself. A good

idea.

>> What happened?

>> It's in the waste basket. Tim,

>> you want me to throw it out? No, leave

it there.

>> I know, but if this stuff makes people

freeze the way you say it does, I won't

be of any help to you.

>> That's right.

>> I know, but you're unarmed. I don't like

this.

>> Hey, this stuff has started to smoke.

>> It should.

>> Mr. Tracy,

I'm beginning to feel funny.

>> So am I, Tim.

So am I.

Should

be clear now.

>> Yes, I understand. Mr. Patton told me to

let him go. Huh?

You're right. Here they come.

Oh, sure. Patton saw the ambulance.

>> Right, sir. Bye.

>> I see you got your man.

>> Thanks. We did.

>> Say, who do you guys think you are

parking here? Can't you read?

>> Sorry, we didn't see the sign.

>> Didn't see the sign. What kind of an

excuse is that? Who are you guys? Where

are you from?

>> 291st General Hospital.

>> What?

>> 291st. Will you please step aside,

>> General? Huh? That was my old outfit.

And they sold these 41 crates a month

ago. Where'd you pick it up?

>> Look here. This man is dying.

>> Yeah, and I got a rush call. So what?

You know what I think? I think you guys

are a couple of cadaavver snatchers. I'm

going to take a look at this stuff.

>> Now wait, the other one. But this is

ours.

>> That one won't be spotted so quickly.

Put him in that one.

>> I hope nothing went wrong.

>> What could Tim would never leave, Dick?

Hey, here comes an ambulance out.

Can I flash the rest of the boys?

>> No, they're driving an army crate. That

one belongs to the city hospital.

>> That was a clever piece of work, Bruce.

>> Almost fired. Paul told you that

corporal's name was Joseph Dugensson.

Was really John.

How is he?

>> He's still under the effects of the gas.

>> Start up the fire.

Not

>> commodity too.

>> Start up the fire.

Heat. Heat.

What's the matter, bud? I

>> asked the guy who stole this crate

>> and mine. Yeah. You mean a big mug and a

little guy with glasses?

>> Yeah, with a patient on a litter.

>> Well, I'll be a That gorilla outsmarted

me again.

>> They pulled a switch.

We've got to follow that ambulance.

>> How do you know where it went? Huh?

That's right,

Sparks. This is Patton. Put all cars on

the lookout for a White City hospital

ambulance. Get that? Yeah. It's carrying

two killers and Tracy unarmed.

X-ray. Hey,

hey,

Heat. Heat.

You're ending up here, Tracy.

I'm not going to come in after you. I

don't have to. Remember the bank.

You got about 60 seconds left.

There's no other exit. Tracy,

this is the end of the line.

Heat. Heat.

Heat. Heat.

So, this is the baby that caused all the

trouble, huh? Yes. That's the last of

those devil's gas bombs, Pat. Soon as

Dan has had a look at it, we'll file it

in the Archives of Lethal Weapons.

I want to see you, Tracy.

>> Well, take a good look, Dad.

>> What's the idea of selling me out to

those radio vultures? You made me a

promise.

>> Promise? Who is this fellow, Pat? Don't

know. I never saw him before.

>> You promised me an exclusive story.

>> Story? What story, sir?

>> He could mean the story of the capture

of a gang of back robbers. Dick.

>> Capture when? Where? It's all here and

it's all true. Give me that. Okay, Dick.

In about 25 seconds, Pat.

>> Sorry, can't wait.

>> Maybe I have to tell you about a day.

>> Some other time. Aren't you going to

read it?

>> Got to make that deadline. This is the

biggest story I ever had anything to do

with
