Arsenal the black police records they wanted tenant the Green Hornet is really

Britt Reid owner publisher of the daily Sentinel his dual identity known only to

his secretary and the district attorney and not only to protect the rights and

lives of decent citizens rides the Green Hornet

yeah

yeah

we join the planking

yeah

yes we've covered the only possible exits for the arsonist Frank we haven't

seen a single person a Firebug generally stays around to make sure that is

torches worked this one doesn't the commissioners is called have been 12

injuries so far too serious entire warehouse is totaled out there were

until night watchman on duty but they so no one

this is critical print is gonna be a meeting at the commissioner's office

tomorrow at ten make sure that you're there as Britt Reid will be seated

gentlemen i am particularly gratified that the press is represented here this

morning the seriousness of this matter cannot be overestimated for seven nights

now at the stroke of midnight a madman has set a devastating fire somewhere in

our city now gentlemen I have to admit that I have absolutely no idea how to

combat this we welcome suggestions Commissioner darlin

Mike accent the central yes my I don't bring just a suggestion

I brought the solution what side hmm

what is this microphone was just gonna see the Commission this is better

mr. Dolan you know Ben Wade he was retired from service a few months ago

because of his injury but there isn't a man in this town knows more about arson

or determining the methods of its use for preventing it then Ben Wade we know

all about mr. way

good to see you then Thank You Commissioner if I can help i'd like to

it's already been suggested when we realize the extent about problem your

name came up

thank you sir but it was rejected the job you have cost you the site of 1i we

can't possibly risk the loss of the other but Commissioner that would be my

risk not us

I'm sorry Ben the decision is reluctant but it's firm you and I know it's

against department policy

hey it's all right Mike Commissioner dolman you got the answer in your hand

like a gentleman as i see it our problem is not determining whether the fires or

incendiary or not or how they're set our problem is anticipating the next move

mr. Warren that even though a pattern of terror has been established policing the

areas that must be covered presents a formidable problem transportation

warehouses power plants and water pumping stations are all potential

targets and maybe spot next

meanwhile on a nice little scene hundred different targets

shouldn't this person whoever he has been making his demand soon he has

demands I'm not so sure he has any why don't understand surely have some prices

going to ask before he stops on the other hand maybe just enjoying the sheer

panic it's cause when what sir lancelot once now maybe Commissioner Dolan this

too stubborn to take back that doesn't mean we have to be too does it not

necessarily the way these fires have been set

it's been done with advanced planning right right so if the Commissioner won't

hire been the Sentinel does then figures out how the fires have been triggered

and we can warn all the plant security people on what to look for British least

its way to go Mike that'll take a lot of time he has to check all the sites of

the past fires he's fast and it worked on a day and night we've been friends a

long time I know

well I'll think about it maybe check with the Commissioner thanks

just might work

yeah

yeah

yeah

yes

oh well we still have about 20 minutes Britt and I think that with all the

publicity a Firebug my changes pattern helicopters up surveillance on all areas

i don't think you can pull it off tonight

yeah

hmm

yeah

yeah

chopper report smoke visible west and transport maintenance of particle check

it out or less than 30 seconds away Frank let's go

my plans going up all by regurgitating you

yeah

yeah

yeah

yeah

yeah

yeah

hello been crawling and kinda late aren't you

and a hot suit how did you get in here

so you're the fire book just because I'm wearing a hot so that doesn't prove

anything

no but added to these locations and dates it does every fire flowing the one

tonight I heard that on the radio I wrote it down trying to establish a

pattern set one you need

I heard the fire report on my police radio just as I got here and you haven't

been home for hours trying to get you on the phone to give you what i thought was

good news then why are you doing this you know forced retirement a man has

dedicated himself to the city lost an eye fer and they offered you another job

sure sit behind a desk punching holes in paper answering the phone when people

who call up a sick of these sicker than you

Mike how would you be the three months I've been cooped up in this building

staring at four walls

I've turned into a cripple mentally not physically did it to yourself then I've

known you too long

you only think you know me nobody knows me i'm just beginning to know myself and

I'm not gonna settle for the pasture not yet so you figured to start a few fires

and be needed and call back

well yes scrapbook look at it until in bed weights all shipboard Fire

Lieutenant Wade captures austin ring single-handed it's the headlines you

miss about to make the biggest headline yet

don't move Mike

let me do this for your own good and I've been your friend for a lot of years

i have no friends and now that you know what I'm doing this for you

big story on Mike's favorite subject

where is he I don't know he hasn't been in all morning hasn't even called

it's not like him when he left last night he said he was going to stop by

Ben way to tell him that you were considering him for a job

have you checked it bends yes and Ben said he never arrived and then I called

likes apartment and they said that he hadn't been there all night either i'm

beginning to worry about him

mmm

yeah

yeah

yeah

yeah

yeah

yeah

morning Ben story my command

sure yes is my gear also like I told your secretary has been haven't seen him

since the commissioner's office but he did call me this morning telephony from

his apartment he did

well he'll probably show up around you seem really nice place you have here

I have good news for you

I could use some you're now an employee the daily simple special investigative

person you mean you're going to do with the city wouldn't somebody asked to this

thing's gotta hand I'll say

when do we start and you think Mike acts but his ways prisoner but why who knows

maybe Mike stumbled on something he is an old news how'd you know you have been

ways one of his best friends

it sounds ridiculous does it try this

the arsonist a man so well-versed in setting incendiary far as he never uses

the same method twice that fits been secondly he's a man that has a complete

knowledge of the fire prevention and construction of all the buildings that

he struck again Ben wait Mike city plan to drop by and see band last night but

been claims that he never did he said that might call it from his home but no

one at mikes home seen him all night or this morning is it possible that he's

the same man that you almost caught last night he's the same side that's all I

can say

well I filled out all the forms i belong to you now

good i have your first assignment you don't waste any time do you

there's none to waste replacement shipment of medical supplies arriving

this afternoon i hope you sneaking event we are top-secret we lose that the

situation becomes critical that greenhorn is tricky we have to be ready

I got you where he is storing a sentinel has a warehouse at the Harbor shipping

his coma flashes newsprint ink paper good idea i want you to go down and

check out the warehouse make certain no incidents these what's to prevent

someone from planting them tonight we have the police surrounding the place no

one in or out

mr. Reid you don't want to just protect the ship and you'd like to catch the

green hornet to warn you of course and pull the police out let me handle this

along just scare him away

isn't that risky so cross-industry

everything's coming along fine mike collins and material have been delivered

and stored fruit set up Mike then I haven't sake stop this am I get up we

got places to go

you asked for a chance Britt Reed gave it to you now you're gonna cross him

that's right this is gonna be my biggest fireball and what will it accomplish

what about your reputation

this will still be an unsolved case who said unsolved i'm going to capture I'm

gonna kill the Firebug Firebug is going to be

this foolishness

nobody's gonna believe like the US and make my case against you they will and

you'll be instead it's like how many questions asked

yeah

yeah

I suspect I'll be with my hands tied

Michael didn't tell me that you're absolutely right

yeah

yeah

yeah

what is it Mike also have a favorite Alaska ask away

could we play down this Firebug story then wait deserves a better epitaph like

he tried to kill you he didn't and i'm here but it's a chance to make you a

genuine hero

what kind of a hero I don't even know how i get out of the place

okay if that's the way you feel about it thanks

I don't know

yeah
