- What's the matter honey?

(tense music)

(suspenseful music)

No!

Don't!

(Ellen gasping)
(suspenseful music)

(Ellen screaming)

(machine humming)

(engine revving)
(alarm ringing)

- How am I gonna make a
story out of that stuff?

Ellen Tinker attacked and killed

in her hall room apartment.

Killer or killers unknown.

I've gotta have an angle, Mack,

Come on, give me a break.

You've seen the body,

- Okay, here it is.

The guy that did it must've
been plenty sore or a nut.

He not only brutally slashed her,

but he cropped off her hair as well.

- [Gardner] Holy smoke.

Why?

- I'll tell you why when
we get the guy that did it.

I'll be back in a half hour,

- Is there anyone in particular

who's under suspicion?

She have a boyfriend?

- A boyfriend?

(scoffs) The landlady
said she had hundreds,

Friendship was her business.

Could've been any one of them.

Then again, maybe not.

We don't have a thing to go on.

- Mack said it might've been a nut.

What do you do in a case like that?

- Well, I don't know.

I know Mack called Doc Jason,

the state psychiatrist, in on the case.

He's the one that can tell you about nuts.

- Doc Jason?

Thanks, Dana.

Thanks.

(engines humming)

- Oh, Miss Casey, will you
file this history please?

- Yes, Doctor, and may I remind you that

that reporter who phoned
is still waiting outside,

- Oh, that Mr. Gardner,

Yes, tell him I'll be with
him in a little while.

Now to get back to what
we were discussing George.

Your reason tells you what to do,

but then you're overcome by a basic urge

and some primitive drive
overcomes your reason.

You know if you fall from grace again,

you're going to lose your liberty

for a long time, George,

Society will never understand,

and, therefore, will not condone a man

who impairs the morals of a minor.

- I'm all right.

Three years in jail is a long time.

I've learned my lesson.

- It's not the darkness of
the prison that cures you,

but the light of understanding.

- I think, Doctor, you've
made me see the light,

I've been out now for three months,

and you see I've kept out of trouble,

I'll be all right now, Doctor,

- You may send in Mr. Gardner now,

and good luck, George.

I'd like to see you in about a month,

but if at any time you want to talk to me,

don't hesitate to call.

- [George] Thank you, Dr. Jason.

- Nice to see you, Mr. Gardner,

Sorry to have kept you waiting,

- Oh, that's all right,

I know how busy you are.

It's nice of you to see me at all.

- Oh, no, just take a seat.

Now, what can I do for you?

- I understand Lieutenant McCarthy

called you in on the Ellen Tinker case,

and I wonder if I can
ask you a few questions?

- Well, I don't know
too much about it yet,

but go right ahead.

What do you want to know?

- I've covered a lot
of murders in my time,

but this doesn't seem like the usual kind,

the kind that a normal
person might commit.

What do you think, Doctor?

Does it look like the
work of a sex maniac?

- That's only a label.

You see, labels name,

but do not explain.

The human mind is a vast domain,

and when its door is unhinged,

it's open to an endless
variety of queer happenings,

- I'm not quite sure I
know what you mean, Doctor.

- Well, take epilepsy for instance.

A man has a fit and loses consciousness,

Now just imagine a moral epilepsy,

where a man has a fit and
loses self possession.

He becomes a slave of passion,

a tool of a driving force

he can neither understand nor control.

- But do they know what they're doing?

- They know the nature,

but not the quality of their acts.

Some know the difference
between right and wrong,

others do not.

- This may sound a foolish
question to you, Doctor,

but could you give me
some idea as to how many

of these characters are at large?

- Unquestionably thousands of them.

The records show that last year

there were over 20,000 offenses

against women and children,

and I doubt that even one-tenth

of all the cases were reported,

- Phew, that is staggering,

Will many of these offenders repeat?

- Unfortunately, they will.

(boat horn blows in distance)

(boat horn blowing)

- Oh, dear, my pictures.

- [Jan] Let me help you, may I?

- Thank goodness they
didn't all blow away.

Wasn't that clumsy of me?

Gee, I hope they didn't get dirty.

- That could've happened to anyone.

A lovely girl, hatbox, and photographs,

adds up to only one thing.

- What's that?

- [Jan] You're a model.

- You mean trying to be.

I'm still going to modeling school.

- I'm sure your training will pay off.

These photographs don't do you justice.

It's very important in our business

to have good photographs.

- Thank you very much,

Did I hear you say our business?

Don't tell me you're a model too.

- No, I'm a photographer.

I have my own studio.

- Fashion?

- Yes, fashion, everything,

Right now I'm doing a series on burlesque.

- Gee, that sounds interesting.

- Uh-huh,

(boat horn blowing)

- Gee, I hope I get a break real soon.

It's so difficult to get a start,

- Perhaps I can help you,

Drop into my studio one day next week,

I have a commission from a travel agency.

I'm sure you're just right for the job,

- Jan C, Verbig, photographer,

144 Wooster Street.

Gee, this is a break!

Thanks a million!

Oh, my name is Susan Grant,

but everyone calls me Sue.

- [Jan] Nice to know you Sue.

- Nice to know you, Mr. Verbig,

Wooster Street?

That's Greenwich Village, isn't it?

- That's right.

- Can you tell me anything
more about the assignment?

Is there anything special
you'd like me to wear?

- Yes, there is.

I'll want you in a bathing suit,

A white one.

- Oh, I have a white one,

but I'm not sure if it still fits me.

Oh, well, if it doesn't,

I can always borrow one.

- That won't be necessary,

I have a couple of white
suits in my studio.

One is just about your size.

(boat horn blowing)

(horns honking)
(engines humming)

- Gosh, it was wonderful
meeting you like this,

See you next Tuesday then.

- [Jan] Right, next Tuesday, bye.

- Bye.

(gentle music)

- I have a feeling this is it, Mom,

Mr, Verbig really knows his stuff,

He's done work for some
of the biggest magazines.

How would you like to see
your daughter as a cover girl.

- (chuckles) That would be wonderful,

but maybe you're being a little hasty,

You're not certain yet
that the man can use you.

- Don't be so pessimistic, Mom.

He said I was right for the job,

and he's not the type that
would say it and not mean it.

You should see him.

He's really charming, very continental.

- All right, dear, I hope you're right.

It's just that I'd hate
to see you disappointed.

- Mom, believe me, he meant it,

and to prove it I'm
gonna call him right now.

- You don't have to prove
anything to me, dear,

- Well, I want to call him anyway,

Since I'm gonna buy a suit,

I might as well find out if there's

any particular type he prefers,

Hello.

Hello, Mr. Verbig?

This is Susan Grant,

Remember me?

- I'm glad you phoned.

As a matter of fact,

I was intending to call
you a little later,

I just heard from the agency.

The bathing suit is out.

They're sending over a special dress.

I told them to make it size 10.

Is that correct?

Good, then I'll meet you at that

little coffee shop I told you about.

- The one near your studio in the Village?

- That's right.

146 Macdougal Street.

Tuesday, 11:00,

Right,

Bye bye.

- I hope there won't be
anymore interruptions.

I'm a little late as it is.

- Just one more and I'll be through.

Mike.

Straighten out that cover there, will you?

The corner tuck it under.

Right, out of the way now.

- Is this the way you want me?

- Hold your head just a bit lower.

Now don't move.

I won't be a second.

That's fine.

Hold it.

(camera clicks)

Perfect.

- Will these come out
as good as Charmaine's?

- Oh, much better,

I have a much prettier girl this time.

- Why, honey, you sure talk sweet.

I'll know how to show my appreciation

if they're really good.

- My pictures are always good.

- I know, honey, that's why I'm here.

When will I be able to see the proofs?

- How about Monday night?

I'll bring them to the club.

What time do you go on?

- At 12:00.

I'm their midnight special.

(people chatting faintly)

- Lili, Jan here.

May I come in?

- Certainly, honey, the door is open.

(door closing)

Certainly didn't take you
long to find the way, baby.

- It never does when I
really wanna get somewhere,

Well, here they are.

- [Lili] Oh, the proofs.

Gee, they're really terrific.

- [Jan] Uh-huh.

I thought you would like them.

- There's are terrific.

Really terrific,

Say, take it easy, lover boy,

Take it easy.

- You're beautiful.

Really beautiful.

- I do look beautiful in
these pictures, don't I?

If my press agent don't dig these,

I'm gonna can him for sure.

Well, you'll have to excuse me
dear I've gotta get dressed.

Besides the manager don't
allow visitors backstage,

- How about having dinner with me tonight?

I'll wait out in front for you.

- No, I have a terrible headache,

- How about tomorrow night?

- No, I have a date.

- Oh, I was hoping you'd let
me take you to the Vesuvio,

- Photography business
must doing all right.

That's an expensive joint.

I can make it Thursday.

- Oh, wonderful.

(woman screaming)

(telegraph machine clicking)

- Hey, get out of here.

Haven't you have anything better to do

than park yourself on my desk?

- Sorry, boss,

Bill said you wanted to see me.

- Yeah, your article on that
Tinker murder was pretty good.

Who is this Dr. Jason
you got your facts from?

Are you sure he knows
what he's talking about?

- Sure, I checked on
everything he told me.

Besides, he's very well known.

- Well, it makes good reading,

and the public's entitled
to know the facts.

Could you dig up enough material to run

a daily article for two or three weeks?

- Could I?

I've been doing research on that stuff

ever since I interviewed Jason.

I could write a book right now,

(telegraph bell ringing)

(dramatic music)

- Well, that does it.

Get on this case first and
start working backwards,

I want a series on all
murders of this type

from the past 10 years,

(engines humming)
(horns honking)

- [Policeman] Sit down.

- Then what were you following her for?

- Who was following her?

- Why you were, you jerk?

You followed me down
10th Avenue for blocks.

- Ah go on, who needs you?

I was just going home.

- Never mind that.

We'll take care of him right away, Miss.

Where'd you pick him up?

- [Policeman] At Mannings.

- I see you had to use the cuffs,

Still a tough guy, eh?

- Tough enough for you flatfoot.

You don't scare me!

- Ah, shut up, or I'll
throw you in the tank.

- There's no doubt that
this gal was murdered

by the same guy, is there?

- Practically none.

- Wanna look at the guys
we picked up so far?

- Yeah.

Let's go.

(dramatic music)

(dramatic music)

What a bunch of crumbs.

Well, good old Joe.

Again, huh?

- Please, please, Lieutenant!

I didn't do anything!

You got no right to pick me up like this!

I didn't do anything!

- Really, come on, let's you and me

go to the question and answer room.

(dramatic music)

- Sit down you!

- Honest, Lieutenant,
I didn't do anything.

I didn't do anything.

- No?

Where were you last night

between the hours of one and three?

Sitting up with a sick grandmother?

- Please, Lieutenant, you got me wrong.

I did nothing bad last night.

I went to a midnight show on 42nd Street.

- Who with?
- Who with?

Why with no one,

I always go alone.

- Yeah, did you know Mary Barrow?

Did you ever take her out?

- Mary Barrow?

I didn't know any Mary Barrow.

Why pick me up?

- He's a comedian, this guy is.

Three convictions,

each involving a chick half his age,

and he's got the nerve to
ask why he was picked up,

- [Man] Three convictions?

What's he doing loose?

- Never heard of Mary
Barrow or Ellen Tinker, huh?

You dirty stinking rat,

open up or I'll break you in half!

- Come on now, Buck,

You might as well spill it,

It'll make it easier on you.

- I didn't do anything,

- [Lieutenant] You check
the movie house yet, Dana?

- Yep, nobody saw him go in.

Nobody saw him leave.

They're playing the picture he said,

but they've been playing
the same show for two weeks.

- The two of you work him over for awhile.

I gotta blow.

If anything breaks,

I'll be at Doc Jason's.

- Definitely a fetishist,

and from what you tell me,

I'd say that the cutting of the hair

is the act that gives him his exaltation.

After that he has only one impulse,

to run away, to escape.

- You think in his rush to get away,

he'd leave some clue,

but not this baby.

- Well, here are the
photographs you asked for.

Maybe they'll give you some
insight into the situation.

- Good, let's take a look.

- Certainly.

Now, here's Henry Clark.

I think the victims were too old for him,

He liked younger ones.

- He doesn't look powerful enough

to do what this baby does.

- Well, I think we can exclude him

for the time being,

Now this is Joe Summers.

Now this could be your boy,

- I thought so too.

We've already picked him up,

We're still checking on him,

but somehow I don't think he's the one.

- Well, we'll keep him open.

Now, here's one I know.

George Mastro.

Now George likes the girls,

but I doubt that he'd be the type of man

who'd be involved in the kind
of crime we're thinking of.

As a matter of fact, he was in my office

only a few days ago,

and he's making a very good adjustment.

- I see.

- Ah, now here's John Padesky.

John has a very bad record.

He began at 18

when he viciously
attacked a cousin of his,

and it was only for the fact that

the family didn't want
to have any publicity

that he got out of that,

but since that time, he's been involved

in two or three crimes that were brutal.

He's been in twice.

If it were up to me,

he'd never be out,

I think that he has both the

background and the personality.

The kind of a man you're looking for.

(horns honking)

(upbeat guitar music)

(no audible dialog)

- Are you sure you don't
want me to use any makeup?

- Positive,

Nothing but lipstick,

and not too much of that,

- You're the first photographer

I've ever heard of who doesn't
want his model to use makeup.

- That's not exactly true.

You're one of the very few

who gets by without it.

Most of the other girls I
photograph have to use plenty.

- Thank you.

This dress is lovely,

I've never worn a
creation like this before.

- [Jan] Yes, that dress
brings you out very nicely,

- Thank you.

This is a fascinating business,

- [Jan] Yes, in many ways it is.

- [Sue] Some of these
girls are really beautiful,

- [Jan] Some of them are,

I helped a little of course,

- Oh, I'm sure you did,

You do such wonderful work.

You make them all look so glamorous.

- Do I?

Well, maybe,

but glamor doesn't mean anything.

You have something much
more important than that.

Something within.

If I can capture it on film,

I'll make you one of
New York's top models.

- Oh, that would be wonderful!

Do you really think you can?

- [Jan] If I don't,

I'll be very disappointed.

- Have any of these girls become famous?

- The one on your right did,

but in the wrong sort of way, poor kid,

No, not that one.

The one next to her.

That's her.

Her picture was in all the morning papers.

- Really!

What's her name?

- [Jan] Mary Barrow.

The girl they found murdered

in Central Park this morning.

- Oh, I read about that.

Is that her?

But this picture's much prettier

than the one that was in the papers.

Why you'd never know it was the same girl.

When did you take it?

- Oh, about six months ago I guess,

That's the last I ever saw of her.

Well, let's get to work shall we.

- Find out anything worthwhile
at the Barrow girl's house?

- Oh, a little.

Her mother's one those straight-laced

Gospel spouting dames

who obviously was so strict,

the kid had to go out on the sly.

Fell in with the wrong type of crowd.

- Get any of their names?

- Ah, no, the mother
wouldn't allow the kid

to bring anybody up to the house.

She didn't even know she
was in show business.

Didn't know a thing,

until I found this theatrical photo

hidden in the closet.

- Uh-huh,

I see the name and address

of the photographer is on the back.

Jan C. Verbig.

Maybe we can get a lead from him.

- [Dana] Could be,

- Now keep your head really down,

but turn it to the camera.

Let her go.

Fine, now slightly
towards the camera, Joyce.

That's terrific.

Relax.

Next one is a take, huh?

I'll be with you in a moment,

Sit down please.
- Thank you.

- Now don't forget that, huh, Joyce.

Just slightly towards the camera.

Are you ready?

Okay, let's do it then.

Hold it.

Perfect.

Relax.

Very, very fine there, Joyce.

Now then.

- I'm Helen Deveaux from
the Excelsior Agency,

They said you might be able to use me.

- Stand up will you please?

Turn around,

A bit more, dear, turn around.

(engines humming)

No, I can't use you.

You're not exactly what I have in mind.

Some other time.

- That's the first time I've ever seen

Helen Deveaux turned down.

- I don't have an inferiority complex,

but I don't know why he
chose me instead of her,

- Yes,
- We're form homicide,

I'm Lieutenant McCarthy.

You Jan Verbig?

- Yes, what can I do for you?

- It's about the Mary Barrow case,

- Yes, I read about it.

I took some pictures
of her some time back.

- Yes, we know, that's
how we got your name,

Can you tell us something about her?

- No, not much.

She seemed to be a sweet kid.

Stage struck, you know the type.

- When did you see her last?

- Oh, uh, about six months ago I guess.

I took several shots of her at the time.

Over there there's one.

- Nice work.

I see you specialize in
ballet and art studies.

- No, not particularly.

I do all types of photography,

- Hey, Lieutenant.

- Yeah?

- Here's another pictures
of the dead girl,

- What else can you tell me about her?

- Not much, I really don't
know anything about her,

- Did you know any of her friends?

- No, no one.

I know she worked at the
Star Burlesque Theater,

but that's closed now.

- Know anyone that worked
there the same time she did?

- Uh yes, Scarlet Rose and Lili DeMar.

Oh, but I don't know if they knew her.

- Know where I could reach them?

- I don't know about Scarlet,

but Lili DeMar is working at Ernie's

here right in the village.

- Hey, Dana.

- [Dana] Yeah, Mack?

- Get the name and address
of this DeMar dame,

and tell her come down
to the office tomorrow,

- Okay.

- There's nothing more I can tell you.

I don't bother with the
girls who work where I do,

Most of them are jealous
of me because I'm a star,

- Did she have any boyfriends?

- Search me.

I never saw any,

but I wouldn't know.

She seemed like a scared
little rabbit to me.

She had no business in this racket.

- No one at all who ever hung around?

- No.

Hey, wait a minute,

There was a guy.

An older man that used to
hang around that joint.

He wasn't the ordinary
stage door Johnny type,

but he used to ogle all the girls.

- [Mack] What was his name?

- Gee, I don't know,

Everyone called him Pop,

- [Mack] What'd he look like?

- Rather tall,

Maybe six feet.

He had a round full face.

If he had a beard,

you might say he looked like Santa Claus.

- If he's the guy that we're looking for,

he's no Santa Claus.

How was he dressed?

- Just ordinary.

- [Mack] You say he was an older guy.

About how old?

- Mm, maybe 55 or so,

- [Mack] Are you sure there's
nothing else you can think of?

- Gee no.

I'd be glad to help you out if could,

but that's all I know.

- Well, thanks for coming in.

- Don't mention it,

and if you're ever down in
the Village, don't forget.

Drop in and see my act sometime,

- Maybe I will,

- Do that, I'm at Ernie's you know.

(upbeat jazz music playing)

(audience applauding)

- I think I fell for you

the first time I saw you at the club,

but your dance tonight was the most

exciting thing I've ever seen,

I've never felt this way
with any woman before,

- If you think that's good,

wait til you take me home.

I'll do a dance for you that'll

knock you right off your seat,

- Wonderful,

I get such a kick out of being
with you like this at last,

This is a big night for me.

- Would be for me too, honey,

except I got bad news today,

- What's that?

- My sister again.

She's married to some
jerk that can't hold a job

for more than two days in a row,

She's expecting a baby soon,

and they're broke again as usual.

- Oh, that's too bad,

- Yeah, and I'm on the spot.

She expects me to send her the dough.

I'm broke myself right now.

You don't have a hundred
I could have for a week?

- No.

No, I haven't,

Can't you get an advance from the club?

- Oh, forget it.

Let's get out of here,

Gotta get home,

- All right dear,

Waiter, give me the check please.

(engine humming)

(gentle music)

(horns honking in distance)

(cab engine revving)

- Well, goodnight, big boy.

Thanks for the company,

- Goodnight?

I thought I was coming up for awhile?

You said you'd dance for me.

- Some other time,

I'm a little tired now.

Goodnight,

Say that's enough,

Take it easy.

- You've got to let me
come up for awhile, Lili.

You've got to.

I'm crazy about you.

- Lots of guys are crazy about me.

- But this is different,

I love you,

I mean it.

- Should we put our cards
on the table, honey?

You're an all right guy,
Jan, and fun have around,

but let's face it,

You can't afford me.

I'm a luxury.

You're just a hard-working photographer.

- I do all right,

- That's just the point, baby.

All right, isn't good enough for me.

- I won't bother you again.

(dramatic music)

- Well, you don't have to be sore,

(doorbell ringing)

(Lili groaning)

All right, all right.

Oh, keep your shirt on.

I'm coming.

- [Deliveryman] Miss DeMar?

- Yes,

Oh, for me?

Thanks.

- Thank you.
- Thank you.

(gentle guitar music)

(dramatic music)

- Mayfield Florists?

This is Jan Verbig.

Can you tell me if you
delivered some flowers

I ordered this morning?

Miss Lili DeMar on Riverside Drive.

You have?

About a half an hour ago.

I see.

You sure she got them?

I see.

Thank you.

(telephone ringing)

Hello?

Hello, Sue,

No, not this morning, I'm busy.

No, make it some other time.

No, Sue, this afternoon that's all right.

Later on in the afternoon.

Goodbye.

- What's the matter, dear?

- I don't know I was just
talking to Mr. Verbig,

and he acted so strange, so abrupt.

- Maybe he was just very busy.

- He's usually so considerate.

It's not at all like him.

I wonder if I've done
anything to annoy him?

He seemed angry.

- There's no use getting upset about it.

It can't be that important, or is it,

- What do you mean?

- You're not falling for him, are you?

- Don't be ridiculous,

Why do you say that?

- Oh, I don't know,

You keep talking about him all the time,

- Oh, Mother, that's
too, too silly for words.

- It really is.

He's so much older than you.

(dramatic music)

- Get many in the roundup this time?

- There's not many left,

but we've got a few,

- All with iron bomb alibis,

like John Padesky I'm sure.

- What's your name?

- Mike.
- Mike what?

- Heckelbert.

- What's he picked up for?

- Annoying a lady in the theater.

- 72nd Street and where, Miss?

- Near Central Park West,

- Are you in charge here?

- [Mack] Yeah.

- I'd like to know the
meaning of this outrage,

Why am I here?

- Where have I seen you before, buster?

- I wouldn't know.

You aren't answering my question.

- I've seen you somewhere
before all right.

What was he picked up for?

- Ah, some girl complained
he tailed her for blocks,

- (scoffs) I never heard
anything so ridiculous,

She must be a psycho.

- Now I know, buster.

Ever hear of Doc Jason?

(dramatic music)

(children chatting)

(telephone ringing)

- Hello?

Oh, it's you again.

You don't seem to catch
on very fast do you, Jan?

No.

Absolutely.

Who cares?

Now look, brother, this has gotta stop.

No, no, absolutely, no,

Never,

Never, N-E-V-E-R,

Never, get it?

(children chattering)

(somber music)

(sultry jazz music playing in club)

(audience applauding)

(gentle jazz music)

- Lili.

Jan here,

Lili.

Lili, I want to see you.

Open up!

Lili, Lili, open up!

- [Lili] Oh, beat it, you jerk!

I told you to scram,

- [Dancer] What the matter?

You can't hold a guy
like you used to, huh?

You're slipping.

- Why you cat!

What do you think you're talking to?

(women grunting)

(gentle music)

(foreboding music)

(Lili yawning)

(dramatic music)

Why you dirty lousy peeping Tom,

what're you doing here?

- Lili honey, don't be mad,

I had to see you,

Why don't you want to see me anymore?

- What am I gonna do with you?

What good are you gonna do me?

- Lili, don't speak that way?

Even if it is true, don't say it.

- I've got a lot more to
say to you, you creep you.

If you don't get outta here right away,

I'm gonna call the cops,

and the very idea of busting

into a lady's apartment.

- Lili, listen please,

I love you,

- [Lili] Get away from me,

you make my skin crawl, you jerk.

- Lili, don't say that.

You'll make me angry.

- What are you out of your mind?

Make you angry.

What about me?

- Lili, I love you,

I love you,

- Get your hands off of me,

Oh, I think you're nuts.

- Don't say that.

(Lili screaming)

- What're you doing to me?

Leave me alone!

You crazy or something?

Oh, no, stop! (screams)

Oh, stop!

Oh, no, leave me alone!

- Lili?

(suspenseful music)

- Help police, murder!

Help, help, police!

Help somebody help!

(suspenseful music)

- Hey, stop that guy, stop him!

(gun firing)
- Stop, police!

Hey you, stop!

(whistle blowing)

(suspenseful music)

(gun firing)

(suspenseful music)

(whistle blowing)

(suspenseful music)

(whistle blowing)

(suspenseful music)

(somber music)

- Well, here's our only eyewitness.

- Oh, a break at last.

Sit down please.

I understand you grappled
with the killer a second.

What'd he look like?

- I don't know exactly.

It was kind of dark out.

- Well, you must have some idea.

Was he tall or short?

- Tall, maybe six feet.

- Was he wearing a hat?

- No, no hat,

- Well, was his hair dark or light?

You must've noticed that.

- [Eyewitness] Well, his hair was black.

- Did you notice anything
about his features?

Did he have a scar or anything?

- I don't know.

I couldn't tell.

- [Mack] Do you think you
might be able to recognize him,

if I showed you some pictures?

- No, it all happened so fast,

I didn't get a good look.

- What kind of clothes was he wearing?

- Dark suit,

- Did his suit get torn or
anything when you grabbed him?

- No, but filthy.

There was plenty of dust
on that fire escape.

- Mm-hmm, his hands, did he
have anything in his hands?

Was he carrying anything?

- No, not a thing.

I could see that.

- Thank you very much, bye,

- Yes sir.

- What's this about his hands?

- The hair he cut off, he
didn't leave it behind.

That means he took it with him, right?

- Right.

- And if he took it with him,

and he wasn't carrying it,

he must've shoved it into his pocket,

Ever try to get hair off
your suit after a haircut?

- Oh, I get it.

Some of her hair's probably
still stuck in his pocket.

Nice figuring, Mack.

- If that suit is as
dirty as I think it is,

he's gonna send it out to be cleaned.

I want every cleaning
store in Manhattan checked.

Put on as many men as you can,

and here's what to look for.

A man's suit.

(dramatic music)

(no audible dialog)

(dramatic music)

(engines humming)

- You really got some publicity
this time, Lieutenant.

- Thanks for nothing,

- It's news, Mack.

You can't keep a thing like this quiet,

- Officer, get me Ernie's
on West 3rd Street.

I wanna talk to the manager.

You know this DeMar dame was
here less than a week ago.

She asked me to come down
and catch her act, hmm,

(bright piano music)
(telephone ringing)

- [Janitor] Hello Ernie's.

He's busy right now,

but I'll get him for you.

Hey, Mr. Quinto, telephone!

(bright piano music)

Mr. Quinto, telephone!

- [Louis] Louis Quinto talking,

Yeah, sure, I'll be down,

(gentle music)

- Gee, I never thought
I'd get here in time,

I didn't realize how late it was.

Then when I looked at my watch

and saw it was two o'clock,

I rushed so I forgot my bag,

and I had to go back.

Jan, you were expecting me, weren't you?

- Yes,

- You know that play you
told me about last week?

Well, I saw it last
night, and it's wonderful.

Shall I change into the cocktail dress?

(dramatic music)

- Sit down.

I'm handling the Lili DeMar murder.

What can you tell me about her?

- What do you wanna know?

- Everything.

Did she have many boyfriends?

- Are you kidding?

If I had a buck for every John Lili dated.

Just one buck,

I'd have enough dough to pay for my house

with thousand dollar bills.

- [Mack] As many as that huh?

- I'll say, if you divided
this town into two groups,

those who knew Lili, and those who didn't,

be like separating those
who are old enough to vote,

from those still in rompers.

- [Mack] How about yourself?

You look like you're old
enough to be out of diapers.

- As far as I was concerned,
Lili was only merchandise.

Top grade stuff mind you,

but still only merchandise,

She had as much sex appeal
for me as a porterhouse steak

would have for a butcher.

- Never mind the wisecracks.

Did you ever see her after business hours?

- Look, you can believe what you want,

but I happen to have a beautiful wife,

and three swell kids at home,

and I happen to be a very
happy, well adjusted guy,

If I wanted to play around
with glamor pusses like Lili,

I wouldn't have to chase
after them, not in my racket,

They're only bread and butter to me.

- You must know some of
the guys she went with.

Did she have a steady?

- No, Lili liked variety.

Besides, a steady would cramp her style.

- Did any of the guys
that she went out with

get sore at her?

- Most of them I guess.

Lili would play around
with them for awhile,

get what she wanted then
give the sucker the gate,

- [Mack] Did any of them
get sore at her recently?

- Uh, yeah, there was a photographer

who was hanging around.

- [Mack] Can you think of his name?

- Gee, I knew it.

Yeah, Verbig.

- Would that be Jan C. Verbig?

- I guess so.

- Hey, Dana.

Get me the file on the super's testimony.

If I'm not mistaken,

his description of the killer

could fit Verbig very easily.

- Hey, well if you're right,

looks like we finally got a break.

- That'll be all, and thanks a lot,

- Okay.

(telephone ringing)

- McCarthy speaking.

Yes, Collins.

- This is it Mack.

It's a navy blue suit
for a guy about 6"1 '.

Long black hairs in the
pocket of the jacket.

The suit's very dirty.

- Great, rust and paint too, huh?

That's it all right!

Did you get the name of the owner?

Well, what do you know.

Get that suit down here pronto!

Hey, Dana, forget that file,

and get a car ready right away.

(engines humming)

(engine revving)

(gentle music)

- Mothers are funny.

- What do you mean?

- Mine says I have a crush on you.

- And what did you say?

- That it was ridiculous.

- Why did you say that?

- I just wanted to stop
her from asking questions.

- Do you think it is ridiculous

for someone to love me?

- No, no, of course not.

I think you're very charming.

Very...

(dramatic music)

Please don't,

(engine revving)

(tires screeching)

Let me go.

- Be still.

Why do you fight me?

I want to love you,

You have such lovely hair.

(dramatic music)

You're afraid of me

like all the others.

You reject me too.

(tense music)

(Sue screaming)

Such lovely hair.

Oh, such lovely.

(Sue crying)

But you're all the.,.

Stealing men's hearts and souls,

and when you're done,
then you toss them aside.

- No, no please!

(Sue screaming)

- [Mack] Hey, hear that, Dana?

Open up, police!

(door thudding)

(Sue sobbing)

Go get him, Dana.

(Sue cries)

- [Dana] Take it easy, you!

(Jan growling)

Give me a hand Mack.

(Sue sobbing)
(Jan growling)

(Jan screaming)

- [Mack] Hold his arm!

(Jan screaming)

(Jan growling)

That'll hold you, buster!

There.

(alarm bell ringing)

(telephone ringing)

- Hello?

Yes, the District Attorney is here,

It's for you, Mr. Henderson,

- Thank you.

Yes, Fisher?

Do you know how much
longer the doctor will be?

- [Nurse] It's hard to say.

He's giving Verbig the injection

of Sodium Pentothal now.

- Oh, I don't know, an
hour, maybe two hours.

Okay, I'll be there as soon as I can.

- Uh, does that uh...

Does that put him in a hypnotic state?

- It's more like a truth serum.

- Why did you cut the hair?

- I don't know.

- You don't know.

You knew you could buy hair,

human hair, all you wanted,

- It wouldn't be the same.

- Turn again please.

Now just put it down calmly,

Put your head to the side.

That's the way.

I'm not going to hurt you at all,

and tell me does this hurt?

- No, Doctor.

- Now just a second.

Now just look away.

Now I didn't hurt you, did I, Verbig?

- No, Doctor.

- Tape please, Nurse.

Now I'm going to ask you to count to 10.

When I tell you, will you please do that?

- Yes, Doctor.

- All right, begin now,

- One, two, three, four,

(eerie music)

Five,

six,

seven,

eight,

nine,

10.

(gentle music)

- Now, Verbig, do you hear me?

- Yes,

- Now you're relaxed,

You're almost asleep,

but you'll be able to speak to me,

and you'll tell me the truth,

and I want you to go back
into your memory, far back,

and tell me what first comes to your mind

that was a significant recollection?

- I remember Helen,

I loved Helen.

We were going to be married,

I never went to the church.

- [Doctor] Why not?

- I was afraid,

- [Doctor] Afraid, afraid of what?

- Afraid of having children.

- What, children of your own?

Was your own childhood so
full of painful memories

that you wanted no child
of your own to relive it?

- [Jan] Yes.

- [Doctor] What comes to your mind?

- My father.

I want so much, father cry,

My father was wonderful.

He took me everywhere.

My mother had no time.

She was an actress.

After the circus,

I asked my father

to take me to see my mother,

(dramatic music)

I never should've done it.

- Why not?

Come, you can tell me.

We've been talking frankly.

I'll understand.

- The theater was empty,

My father took me to the dressing room.

He opened the door,

a man was stroking my mother's

long beautiful hair and kissing her,

and they left me alone with him.

He ran out.

That night he shot him down.

(tense music)
(Jan sobbing)

- All right, Jan, control yourself,

Nurse, take the syringe.

Come on, my boy, you'll
be as well as ever.

You're going to sleep a
little while now and rest.

I've gotta go now, Doctor,

The DA is waiting for me.

- Well, Doctor?

- It's one of the most cogent cases

of subconscious compulsion

that I've ever seen.

All the way from his

passion for revenge on woman,

right down to the hair fetish.

- Look, all I want to know is,

did he know what he was doing?

- [Doctor] I'm afraid he did, but...

- No buts about it, he knew.

He'll have to pay the penalty,

What are you looking so
disturbed about, Doctor?

- I was thinking of what the state

will spend on the trial and the execution.

Society won't benefit
from that man's death,

but they could use that money to build

more hospitals and train psychiatrists,

so that they could study these cases,

and I think these tragedies
might be prevented.

- A man commits a horrible crime,

and you feel sorry for him?

- In a way, yes.

It may sound a bit corny,

but if the twig is
bent, the tree inclines.

If I had the opportunity
to treat the twig,

you probably wouldn't have
had to chop down the tree,

- Nevertheless, he gets the ax.

(dramatic music)

(horns honking)

(dramatic music)

- [Man] May I help you?

- [Woman] Oh, thank you.

(dramatic music)

(no audible dialog)

(gentle guitar music)
