- Now give me a cigarette darling
- Sure

- Anything you want
- Anything?

Oh darling, I love you. You don't
know how much I love you

Get down out of sight

Do you think we've been followed?

Turn off the radio

Apparently we are not the only
ones to think about places like this

I guess we have to get go anyway, it's late

You get nervous, don't you?

I guess so

Where are you going?

I don't know. Nowhere as usual

Here. Getting cold

Beautiful

Paulie

Darling, don't. It is late

I love you, Paulie

I love you so much I can't
say anything else..

Get in here

Hi, boss

Gentlemen, you are late,
I told you to be here first

The kid was driving he got us loss

There are no street signs up here

If you can't follow simple
orders I have to replace you

Won't happen again

The day set?

The 25th, Saturday,
the address is 1822 Falcon Drive.

There, gentlemen, is our right plum,
ready to pick

It sure looks spooky

It's an enchanted castle

And as all enchanted castles,
it has a hidden treasure

Come gentlemen

Come on

Let me show you the lay out

- Turn on the light
- Turn on the light

Sit down

If we forgetting those
ricocheting them lights

there will be a couple from
Los Angeles is looking for me

Nobody is going to bother us up here

You climb down the hill to the house,
pass the lawn, to the back door

And just to your left is the kitchen

and a short hall way which
leads to the living room

On Saturday morning

the owners starts on a three week holiday
cruise down the coast of Baja California

- That's in Mexico
- I know, I know

What's with the servants?

They live out, the house will be closed

A private police car patrols the area

the car passes at 1030 and doesn't
return for an hour and five minutes

You have exactly one hour.
You start at 1035

What kind of a box?

A wall safe in the work room which
is joined to the library here

I warn you it is a very substantial safe

I'll open it

If I didn't believe that I
wouldn't have chosen you

Just do it that quietly and neatly

I worked too long and too hard
on this plan to allow a slip-up

Who is that?

Who is what?

I heard something

He's jumpy, all hoods is jumpy, but I
know how to handle him. I'll guarantee

Now will you listen what the
man is telling you?

Don't push me

Quipper, jumpy listen

All right I reckon pushy

Gentlemen, take it easy, take it easy

How much stuff is it supposed to be?

Quite a bit. Bring a large briefcase

The rings, bracelets, pins,
several rather good necklaces

the collection is insured for 350000 $

If you follow my instructions carefully,
it's a very simple job

Now, then

Is the lay out clear to you?

We got it

Until Saturday

Good luck to you

Come on junior you just can't
wish that stuff out of there

All right, don't shout

Well, we certainly can find a spot

I could use a drink or doubles

Start the car

Paulie what are you doing?

Let's go

Those men. Don't you think we ought
to report them to the police?

That would be just fine

if you think of a way to explain how we
happened to overhear them

Stop being a boyscout, Marsh,
they don't give a price for it

Come on, let's go

It's all right, he is not home yet

Want to dance?

I wish you weren't elsewhere, all the time

It's cute

My husband made a fairy story once
about a mouse who put a bell on a cat

So it always knew where it was

The only book he ever read

I wish you weren't worried

Plight enough

Pauli, I don't want you going back to him

What we'll do? Live in the
commissions raft pages

I'm sorry

I'll miss you again

But that poor little time we get together

If we could. We could be
happy with you Marsh

Oh yes

But has been worse, leave it

Bentin

- Two more? Same thing?
- Just one

Paulie, you don't understand

I want always before, if I believe that I
wouldn't make you part of my life

I don't like hiding snooping around

I mean bad enough start as it is

Maybe we tell him, better chance
will happen some kind of decent..

What are you thinking?

About 350000$, about the places
I like to go, the things we could see

Nothing

I guess I had enough, I'm
getting rumbled-jumbled

Let's go, Marsh.

I'll drive you to the usual place,
phone me tomorrow when time..

Well, I thought you were working

Where have you been?

I went to a movie

"Death at 2 am"?

I liked it, I saw it again

I'll bet you liked it

Who is he?

Oh, Ralph, not that again

I'm tired I'm going to bed

I want to talk to you, Paulie

I've been waiting here going crazy

I went crazy a long time ago

If I get on your nerves, why
wouldn't you give me a divorce?

You like that, wouldn't you?

So you could get a community
property settlement

pull out with half of everything I own

Went talking with that cheap
lawyer of yours

There is someone else isn't it?

If you think so, get rid of me

I would like you to break it up, Paulie

Look

Let's straightened it out. Whatever is
wrong between us, I want to fix it up

Get away from me Ralph, you
couldn't fix your own shoelace

I'll hit you

I picked you out of the gutter,
get everything for you

bought everything for you, tried to
make something decent out of you

How would you know what was decent?

Well, you

Well, why don't you act your age

I kick you, I'll kill you

Paulie

Paulie, let me in

Please let me in, I'm sorry baby

Ralph?

He was waiting when I got home last night

He hit you

It's awful

Better put something on it,
antiseptic, something

That's not all

Look

What is it?

How could he do that to you,
how could anyone

I'm going to call a doctor

And let everyone in town know about it

Paulie, darling

- Watch it!
- Sorry

There's band aid in the bathroom
and bandage, come on

I beg you not go back to him, I beg you

This suite is in a mess, I didn't have
a chance to straighten up this morning

Let me see. Here

Little cool water, honey

Here, darling

wash your eyes put something on it

Hello, Kathy

Let me talk to Nevins

Marsh, don't be a fool

I'm going to settle it Paulie,
I'm going to tell him

You idiot, can't do this,
you'll ruin everything

Get on that phone and make
some kind of excuse

Mr Nevins I'm sorry I overslept

I just want to tell you I'll
be there right away

I thought I better tell you

It's all right Marsh, make it
as soon as you can

- I'll start the meeting
- Thank you

- Good Morning
- Hello, Cathy

The meeting started yet?

They've been in there for over half an hour

I overslept

Looking as you had no breakfast.
Want some coffee?

No, no thanks, I better get in there

- Mr Marshall is here
- Send him in

Marsh, just a moment. Think they have the
head of sales department looking

Thanks

Come in Marsh

Meeting just about over

You know Mr Raymond?

How do you do How do you do

- Mr Franklin
- Hello Marsh

Gentlemen, I've taken
up enough of your time

call me whenever it is convenient for you

I check with you late this afternoon

You may have an answer on those issues

Stop worrying, Franklin, I'm not a
particularly easy man to cross

They know that when I make up my mind
and go after something, I stop at nothing

See you gentlemen

Mr Raymond nice to meet you

Oh, Marsh

Just a moment

Sit down

I've just made a decision that
is going to effect both of us

I've been watching you
very carefully, Marsh,

Very carefully indeed

- Cigarette?
- No, thanks

You are a bright boy, Marsh

I've got my eye on you

You know this business better than anybody

Except me

You know what my situation is,
I put up a big front

but no one is ever as big
as the front for himself

When I took you in, I said I was going
to do something for you

Well, I am. I've got
something real big plans

What I'm doing, Marsh, is
putting my faith in you

Sure, I put up a big profit, the fact is

that I got every sod I own,
tied up in this truck

I even had to borrow money to make the trip

Trip?

South to Brazil

Mind it

It's not easy for a man to talk
to anyone about his home life

You probably noticed that Mrs Nevins
is somewhat younger than me

Everybody has their differences but how a
man at my age has already the disadvantage

You know what I mean the cards
kind of stacked against him

The point is I'm taking
Mrs Nevins on a trip

sort of a Halloween holiday so
we can get straightened up

That's where you come in

Where I come in?

Yeah

I'm putting you in charge
of the office while I'm away

You'll run the whole show

You're young, you'll be wanting
to get married yourself someday

It's a great chance for you.
There will be a raise

I couldn't let you do that

You can help me a lot, Marsh

That's why I am putting this trust in you

Trust

Miss Stevens, will you come in
a moment, please

I don't want to keep you
here all day

You ought to be out of development

probably losing sales by
the dozen, come on in, get to work

You are not at my desk, you know, not yet

Stevens, meet your new boss, Mr Marsh
is going to run the office, while I am away

I don't know what to say Mr Nevins

Don't say anything, just
get out there and sell

You do that pretty well

You must have quite a life

Thanks

That's all Miss Stevens

Marsh, I think that's wonderful news

- Congratulations
- Thank you

I've got some coffee and some doughnuts

I'm not that hungry, Cathy

Been so ready. Right here

Coffee is right hot and doughnuts so good

Put this at the end of the line

- Hello, darling
- Hello, Paulie

Been days I'm getting frantic,
you sounded excited on the phone

He's been watching me,
watching me constantly

I hate this mess, Paulie, I work for
him, I owe him something

I can't stand it anymore, I'm going crazy

Come on, lets walk

Wants to take me on a trip

Long trip

I know

We are supposed to leave Monday

Monday? We can't wait,
Paulie we got to tell him

I want you, more than anything in the world

You know how I feel, Marsh, I've
been thinking about nothing else

And I finally thought of a way

the one we could work it, Marsh,
one way we could be together

You mean will go with me?

Yes, but it not just going away,
it's how we go away

Because I'm not being
stripped of everything

You remember the other night on the
hill, those three men we overheard

I've been thinking over a
way, listen carefully

We heard every move they are going
to take for robbing the house

We can take them by surprise,
they wouldn't have a chance

There is nothing wrong
about robbing thieves

Think of it, Marsh, 350000$
worth of jewellery

But I couldn't do it, I'm
not a criminal, Paulie

Of course, you're not but this
is our one chance, darling

The stuff is going to be stolen anyway

- I hope you are joking, Paulie
- I'm not joking

But we don't need that kind of money

I can work now, I can support you,
not the way he can, better than not

Fairly decent salary better
that a lot of people

You can earn money, don't have to steal it

My family was poor but we..

Marsh, I have to come down here
because I wanted you to see this

Look, this is where I was born, Marsh

Lot of my life was spent
in places like this

You did know about this, didn't you?

When you are trapped in a place like
that, you do anything to get out, Marsh

Anything

I know

I'm not apologizing for anything I did

It was all part of the way out

I never thought before about what I wanted

only about things I didn't want

Now I want you, and we found a way to do it

it is an easy job, you
won't even need a gun

I can't, Paulie, we can have
a good life together

but we cannot fell it on a
rotten foundation

Don't you understand we
can't start out that way?

I couldn't

Up there, the end of the line

We can't say we didn't have our chance

He is right. It is the end of the line

Hello, can I speak to Mrs Nevins, please

When do you expect her?

I see

I bring double

Rings, bracelets, very simple job 350.000$

What are we doing commissioning daft agents

Saturday, 25th, house will be closed

Hello

Don't hang up, Paulie, I'll do it

What will you do, Marsh?

I'll go ahead with it, I'll do
anything you say

Are you from the nursery? I
expected you yesterday though

It won't do you any good at all

What?

You are about the Green Houses, aren't you?

I know my husband called you and I am sorry

I'm sorry, I do not know anything
about Green Houses

I'm with Nevin's Development Company,
we're a real estate firm

I came to talk about this house,
it is the beautiful location

I wanted if you would
be interested in selling

This house? Oh, my heavens no

Real estate, that I didn't expect
at all, an offer to buy

Very unfortunate but I didn't expect
you, Mr Marshall, oh no we couldn't sell

I wonder, since I come all the way up
here, if I may take a look around

Of course, you may, you don't mind
coming through the back way, we all..

Of course not

House is quite large, six bedrooms nobody..

Beautiful design isn't it?

I don't know too much about those things,
honey, I'll let you decide on that

Do you think you could afford it?

We just have to make out a new budget

I'm sure the payments could be arranged

you wouldn't notice the differences
between the two prices

This would be the lot here, number
282, it's fifty by hundred feet

It faces here on this street, it's
really quite a choice lot

Let's go and take a look at it

Fine

I'll be with you in a moment

I could have the papers ready for
you tomorrow if you can come in then?

- Thank you, Mr Marshall
- Thank you very much

Watch it

Careful

What about the Lynbury place?

I got a look at the ground

No problems?

No, Dr and Mrs Lynbury is
leaving tomorrow on a fishing trip

Good. Let's plan tomorrow night

I've asked my friend Phyllis and
Tom Rycker over as a cover

we're going to the Crystal Room

supposed to be a farewell party because
we are going away on a trip

So I want you to..

Paulie, I'm worried, I don't like this

I don't like it either, darling,
but it will be over soon

After tomorrow night
nothing will keep us apart

I want you to arrange something to
keep Ralph working tomorrow night

I don't care what you do or how
you do it but arrange it

Something he can't delegate
to you or to anybody

Something that will keep him
at the office, can you do it?

I'm sure I can

You'd better go

There is no way out, only that door

Quick or he suspect it

Can I give you a hand with those Mr Nevins?

No

No, you go and check the third way, there
is something here I got to take care of

Any particular kind of car, Mr Nevins,

No, anything at all the most
inconspicuous car you got

Look, and bill me personally, not my office

Very well, Mr Nevins, how
about this car here?

Marsh, it's all set, it's our
big chance, darling

Yes, they are here

Get ready, I call you from the Crystal Room

Hi Paulie. Join the party

Hi, Paulie

Hi kids

Sorry I'm late.
It's all right with me as you come at all

Phyllis, will you fix these
hooks for me, please?

I'll fix you a drink, honey

Here you go

Paulie, you look like a 9 million bucks

I hope so at least 350.000

- What
- Nothing

Ralph just called, says he can't go
with us, some deal at his office

He is coming by now for a drink

Yih, that's too bad,
got to work all evening?

Whoever knows of Ralph

Hey Paulie, here I play a minute ago,
and I take my sure, with you know what?

We ever forgot the routine

Never

It was always too fast for me,
I never could keep in step

Not that I was much of a dancer

You're made up for it, honey

I was not much looked upon
but I did sell lots of cigarettes

Maybe they felt so sorry for me,
what do you think?

Fortunately Tom was
the last to get married

You kids must have been an excitement

I still don't know why Phyllis ever
married a plumber like me

You are not a plumber, you are
plumping fixture contractor

I can never get him to maintain any dignity

Thirty three, comfortably three

You were lucky

It's Ralph

- Hey, Ralph
- Hey, Phyllis, Tom

- Hi Tom
- Pauline

- Just heard the bad news
- Bad news?

You can't come with us tonight

What's the good of going away, for the
guy going away doesn't show

I figure you can manage
all right without me

I'm sorry about tonight, but Paulie,
something came up

with those city contracts
Marsh was handling

I got to meet Franklin back at the office

Do you like it straight, Ralph?

Good, Tom, but not too much

I know exactly how you like it,
very dry, I think I join you

I've got to get right back,
so let's make it a double

Ay, your worship

You don't have to kiss his hand
just to fix his drink

Honey, I was only being civil

Listen, Tom, you are a very big
man in your own right

Paulie may be best friend but you
don't have to kowtow to Ralph

The order for the new trucks
means a lot for both of us

Trucks? No, it is not the order for
the new trucks, because he loves you

just for the order of the new trucks
for you gave him the best price

All right, honey, all right

How long time have you
been fixing the Martinis?

Martinis never hurt me any..

Tom, are you kidding

- How are the drinks going?
- Fast

Well, it just the time, here is
one and a half - Thanks, Sam

Well, taste it

Good deal

I know how you like it Ralph

Here's to our second honeymoon

And here's to our first

Skal!

I'm sure you amuse yourself,
I always want to go to Rio

but Tom and I are going to wait
until we master the mambo

That'll be today

That's part of it is, Paulie and
I have a chance to be alone together

And to get to know each other again

People get to working too hard to
be placed into bad habits

We are going to change on that,
be like starting all over again

I don't know about you

but I am getting a little embarrassed
listening to these lovebirds

Romantic

That has to wait until Monday,
I've got to get back to the office

Are you getting me to drive?

We'll be there to elevenish as well

You'll be there late for all its worth

If the things worth doing,
is worth doing well

My boy a living doll

I'll see you later

Well, Tom, what do we drink to, last
time it was the shoe the one's coming up

Both, last years and next years

I give you happy marriages,
they're made in heaven

I give you happy marriages, no
matter where they are made

- Let's go. We made reservations
- I'll get my coat

Anything wrong?

Great

I need just one more thing
to happen to me today

Won't it start?

Would I be standing here
like a dope if it would

For this fortune for a car won't even start

I'll drive you to the office

You and Tom go into the Crystal Room,
I'll drop Ralph and meet you there

- OK, Paulie
- Come on darling, let's go

Wait a minute Tom, I am going to drive, you
have been too many hours with your Martinis

OK, baby, OK

If I get stuck, then I call you

you know how tough it is getting
a taxi down here late at night

I don't want to be stranded here

Just give me a ring at Crystal Room
and I'll pick you up

That's what wives are for

Pick ups?

Don't start that

I was just kidding

Ah, there is Franklin, let me out here

I'll catch up with you later

- Howdy
- All well

Paulie

Please, don't you boys sit
up all night getting ulcers

- We won't
- Don't worry

Give me a call when you are finished

I told you

Let's handle this.
I'll get in touch with you later.

- But Ralph
- Go on, I've an appointment, go on

Paulie, Paulie, over here, Tom get it

Oh, Paulie you missed him,
he was divine, he sang over star

- Did Ralph get there?
- Yes, he is safely delivered

Good

Tom, would you get me a drink
from the bar? You know the kind I like

Sure

Tom, Tom you are very
politely asked to leave

What?

Scotch, you and Scotch

That's the idea, Tom, make it a slow Scotch

Sure

Look honey, we have known each
other too long for any nonsense

Ralph is dragging me away on
this trip, we'll be going away a long time

There is someone, someone special
I got to say good bye to

You let me suffer
for a lot of trouble, Paulie

I'll be saying good bye to him,
I won't get another chance

Poor Ralph, even the
belles don't have duvet

You got a nice guy, Phyllis, I envy you

Cover for me, will you,
in case Ralph should call

Paulie, I would do anything
in the world for you

and you know, but you are putting
me in an awful position

If Ralph does call I can
only stall him so long

All right, I'll do this for you, you do
me a favour, you make it a fast good bye

Thanks

What happened to Paulie, honey?

You drink it, sweetheart,
she's on the wagon

Drawers in the back, hide in the trunk

Nervous

I'm scared silly, but it's a funny kind
of scare, I think I likely enjoying it

1035 exactly. Park over there
heading down hilll

If anything goes wrong blow the horn

Nothing is going wrong

Good luck

Hello Baby, I waited
a long time for this, baby

Ralph, listen

I've listened long enough

I know he is down there, I saw him go

and I'm going to be waiting for
him when he comes back

I'll told you I take you for this

I'll go to the trip with you Ralph,
I'll do anything you want

Put your hands up

Now pass me the briefcase

Look, mac, I don't know who you
are but you are asking for a lot..

Pass me the brief case, Sir

Turn around and start walking

Ralph, I'll do everything, let me go

Walk straight ahead

Will you let him hijack those jewels

Shut up and find the light switch

There it is

Ralph

Marsh

Marsh

Get out of here

What's this?

Don't go to pieces now, darling,
we can still out run them

It's all right now darling, it's over

It was a shock that anything like
to happen

Who did it?

Ralph must have followed us, Paulie

You better get hold over yourself,
he is dead

They were shooting at me and hit Ralph

You mean Ralph?

Yes, darling, he is dead, I'm
sure of it, he got in the way

Got to think this out, changes everything

Ralph followed us, they killed him?

We'll have to wait, we could
not go away together

Not now, not yet

You go back to your friends
at the Crystal Room

Marsh, I can't

Don't you see, darling, it's the only
way we can protect your reputation

- My reputation
- Paulie, get hold of yourself

You can't go hysterical now

I'm all right

There are millions things
we have to think about

Drop me at my corner

I'd better keep the jewels

When the police will be getting in
touch with you we don't have much time

Hi, Paulie

Boy, I'm glad you got back

Hopping out on that dance
floor for close to an hour

Tom is a real

That must have been some farewell

I could use a drink, Tom

Tom, you are off and running again

I don't mind running, do you
think she will stay for this one?

Something wrong Paulie

You are really kind of struck
on this guy, aren't you?

Give me a cigarette, Phyl

Where is your bracelet?

I must have left it at home

You are kidding, Paulie,
you were wearing it

This must be a real jim-
dandy folly you're falling for

I'd like to talk, you remember that
Mexican piano player at the Blue Room?

He waded off

Look, Paulie, this maybe
none of my business

but you remember the way you felt
about Tom when I married him?

I admit he is not the kind of guy

you would hire to advertise a cowboy
but I love him, what are you going to do?

Maybe, Ralph is not so bad,
why don't you give him a chance?

Look, you got to go on
the trip anyway, so just try?

Maybe life can be beautiful, maybe you
get to like him, you never can tell

That's my fellow, he is getting
faster, faster with the drinks

Paulie, I am sorry, I did not
mean to get it over so far

I'm OK, just got a headache,
don't let me be a wet blanket

Why don't you kids come by the house by the
way home we could have a night cap there

Paulie, that's a nice idea.

Want to dance? Come on I'll
teach you the mambo

And when you get to Rio, you
could surprise Ralph with it

It would be quite a surprise

You know what you are
laying yourself in for

He's just taking the live economy
course at Arthur's Murray

Hi, Inspector Sorry to have you
drag you out of bed, God willing

As usual, how does it look?

Pretty rough, pretty rough,
we found him gunned down on the road

Was hit here fell over the embankment
and then on to the drive way

The neighbours said they
heard about a dozen shots

two came from his gun

we found bullets all over the place,
all from the direction of the house

What about the owners?

A doctor and Mrs Lynbury

they are away on vacation, the house is
closed up, we checked, it's all secure

Any motives?

It wasn't robbery, all sorts of
identification, Ralph K. Nevins

Real estate man?

There is a huge drive car parked about a
block up the road we are tracing it now

Looks like someone was waiting here
in the driveway and blasted him

Yes, this is rough

- Inspector?
- Go ahead, go ahead

You two better follow through on this and
I see you at the office in the morning

If anything should break
before then, call my home

Yes sir

Sorry if we shuttled you, police officers

Is this the home of Ralph K Nevins?

Yes

- Do you know him?
- I'm his wife

When was the last time
you saw your husband, Mrs Nevins?

I drove him to his office just a
few hours ago. What's this all about?

But you didn't stay with him in the office?

I've been to the Crystal Room
with Mr and Mrs Rycker

my husband was to have joined us but
at the last minute he had to work

Would you mind explaining
what this is about?

Better answer it, it rung three
times in the last 10 minutes

Excuse me

Are you friends of the family, Mrs Rycker?

Yes, that's right

I'll have to ask you a few questions

- Look
- What's this all about?

Wait you don't seem to understand him,
he is going to ask the questions, right?

So I thought

Ralph?

Paulie, the police may be
there in any moment

I left my suitcase in the back of your car

Look, hang the clothes in
Ralph's closet, I know it is rough

but all you have to do is use your head

Yes, I'll be glad to. I expect him
home very soon, but if he should be late

would you care to leave your number and
I can have him to call you in the morning?

All right.Fine.Good night

Hello, Cathy

Barging in

Awful, isn't it, Marsh?

I just heard it on the news on the radio,
I guess we all pretty much upset

Sorry I broke up like that

It's all been such a terrible shock

I thought I better get down
here as early as I could

Those telephones have been
ringing all morning

jobbers, contractors, wanting
to know what's happened

And newspapers, I don't
know what to tell them

Nevins Development Company

Yes, Mr Franklin, we know...
Isn't it terrible?

Yes, he's right here, just a moment

Lloyd

Hello, Mr Franklin

Yes, I heard it on the
radio. Of course I will

Thank you, I'll do whatever I can

Bye, Mr Franklin, I see
you tomorrow morning

He wants me to go ahead and take
over the office just as Nevins planned

I don't want let Mrs Nevins find any change

I don't think Mrs Nevins planned the change

What?

The other phone

Hello

"LA Sept 1st etc etc This is for Dean
Franklin my lawyer personal"

Nevins Development Company

"Dean, I want my wife
cut out of my last will entirely"

"I have good reason to suspect her
of carrying on an affair with Marshall"

"he's arranged to keep me
busy tonight so they can meet"

"but I intend to follow them
and confront them"

"Please take care of this matter at once"

(Cathy)I am sorry there is no more
information that I can give you

Ralph told me to do his recordings

What can I do to help you Marsh?

I must remember to call you Mr Marshall now

There is nothing much we
can do until Franklin gets here

it will be the first thing in the morning

Did you see Mrs Nevins this morning?

- I thought I under..
- Cathy, look, why don't you go home

You need all the rest you
can get for tomorrow

Marsh, I can't, there is so much work

- I appreciate that, Cathy
- All yourself

That's kind of you, but
I can manage by myself

All right, will you remember to sign these?

Sure

Police officers

Good Morning. We are police officers.
Sergeant Allen, and I'm Lieutenant Jennings

Of course

Come in

- You usually work on Sundays, Mr?
- Marshall, EV Marshall

No, we heard the news on
the radio, Miss Stevens and I was just

we came down to see what we could do

- Miss Stevens?
- She is Mr Nevin's secretary

- She was.
- Stevens. Good Morning

Good Morning

When did you see Mr Nevins last?

Yesterday afternoon

What time did you leave?

Usual time six o'clock

Had Mr Nevins already left?

No he said he had some work to do

What's your position here, Mr Marshall?

I was chief sales man, Mr Nevins
had arranged for me

to take over the office while he was away

Was he taking a trip?

Yes, vacation

- With Mrs Nevins?
- Yes

Mrs Nevins is a very attractive woman

Yes, indeed, she is

Did they get along well together?

I think that is a question
you should ask Mrs Nevins

I will

Mr Marshall, when did
you last see Mr Nevins?

Yesterday noon

I spent the rest of the day in the field

Stevens, did you know if Mr Nevins
kept a gun in his office?

Yes

Do you know why?

No

Sometimes he handled large sums of money

- Know anybody who wanted to kill him?
- No

Where was the gun kept?

In this drawer

Who has the key to this?

I have one, as far as I know,
it was never kept locked

When was this letter dictated?

Yesterday, I imagine

You haven't finished typing it?

No, I was just taking it off the
machine, Mr Marshall came in

Why? Is that letter has particular
significance?

No

You any idea what might have taken
Mr Nevins up in Highlands Hill Area?

No, no idea at all

What time is this office open?

Nine o'clock

- Who is Mr Nevin's attorney?
- Dean Franklin

Handle all his legal matters

Do you have his home address?

I'll write it down

I gather you have no idea
who might have killed him?

At the moment, no

- Here it is
- Thank you, Miss Stevens

We'll be in touch with you tomorrow

I'll go out with you, I want to
keep the front door locked

we don't want any reporters coming in

There it is, Lieutenant

Great. This is the kind of case you
dream about after Thanks Giving dinner

Bullet that killed Nevins
came from his own gun

The gun has only his own finger prints

Suicide?

Sure. He rented a car, went to the top
of the mountain, in the middle of the night

deserted house to kill himself with at
least two other people was shooting at him?

Rough one, hey

This on for TV

- Jennings, ring operator on the phone
- Oh, thanks

- Get some photo micrograph of it
- Right

- Hello
- Lieutenant Jennings?

Yes.Thanks.We contacted
Dr Lynbury on his boat

Go Ahead, Sir

Hello, Dr Lynbury, this is Lieutenant
Jennings of the North Highland Police

There's been an accident on your
property a man was shot last night, over

(Lynbury) Do you know if my property
was damaged in any way?

No, there was no damage to your property

the victim was Ralph K Nevins
do you know him?, over

(Lynbury) No, I never heard of him

I thought you might be
able to give us a lead

No, it won't be necessary to
interrupt your vacation, over

(Lynbury) Thank you, Lieutenant
for calling me

I'd appreciate if you contact us
when you get back town, doctor

Good Luck on your fishing, over and out

The crime lab boys have covered
every inch of that territory

but let's go out and look over again

I don't think thing will help
on this one but prayer

Well, it is Sunday, let's go

Earth to earth, ashes to ashes

dust to dust

ensure certain hope of Resurrection
to eternal life, to Our Lord Jesus Christ

Amen

This way to the coffin

- Get in please
- All right, in the front, Paulie

What are you thinking, Lieutenant?

The same thing you are thinking

- There you are, Mash. Some sugar
- Thank you, Cathy

I don't know how you are
ever going to sleep again

after all the coffee you consume
the last few days

Nevins Development Company

I'm sorry, he is busy,
may I take a message?

This is his secretary

I'm sorry Mrs Nevins I didn't recognize
your voice. How are you?

Yes, of course, just a moment

Thank you

Good Afternoon, Mrs Nevins

I've been waiting two days
for you to call me, Marsh

I can't stand it, I can't stand not
knowing what is going on

Things here been quite a muddle, Mrs Nevins

we've been working, day and
night to get it straighten up

Police have been around
here three times now

Your clothes are still hidden
in Ralph's closet

I'll attend that asap Mrs Nevins, we still
got people lined up three deep outside

We?

- Who is we?
- Cathy

I want to see you now, Marsh, right now

Please

I will, Paulie, I will when it is safe

It wasn't safe when you used to see me

That was different

What was so different about it?

I got to see you

Very well, Mrs Nevins, I'll pick it up

Yes, I'll take it over right away

Where did you say?

Fine, right away

I better go out, Cathy,
I'll finish the dictation later

Marsh, I don't think you
realize the responsibilities

you were taking on with this job

You are not getting enough rest
and you are not eating properly

Is it worth it?

A good question

Too much for one man to handle now,
you should have more help

I've got a lot of help, Cathy, I don't know
what I would have done without you

I make a very good stew

Would you like for me to
fix dinner for you tonight?

Thanks, Cathy, I'd like to, but
some other time

Promise?

Promise

Hello. What's the matter?

- I thought I was being followed
- Were you?

I don't know, I am not sure,
I don't know if I'm going crazy

Afraid answer the phone
afraid open the door

I miss you, Marsh

I do too, but we can't leave it sort of
things, we're taking too much of a chance

Is that the only reason,
you haven't called me?

Do you think I like this?

Paulie, be sensible, we have no excuse
to see each other except on business

If the police start asking questions,
they only start thinking

Still don't know what we are going to do

when Lynburys get back
and discover the robbery

and tie that up together with Ralph's death

So not seeing each other would be a
permanent arrangement?

Of course not. When things calm down,
we can be together, just as we planned

Sick of sitting around the house,
I hate it now, give me the creep

The business is an alibi, Marsh, was
that little wide eyed secretary

I saw you holding hands with
her at the funeral

Pauline, stop it, you know better than that

Do I? Then why have you
been brushing me off?

What are we fighting about?

We got everything we wanted now
and have everything right here

We can be together

Isn't that what we wanted Marsh?

It is

But I didn't expect the price to be so high

High?

We do not have to run away now,
you are in charge of the office

ours or will be as soon as
the new trucks starts paying off

Business is another excuse, bring
some papers over to me to sign tonight

Paulie, for heavens sake, show him a little
respect, he has only been dead a week

All right, Marsh

But I want to hear from you tomorrow

and I want to make sure it is
business that keeps you occupied

You go out first, the suitcase is in
back of my car at the parking lot

Tomorrow, Marsh

Is it something you wish, Madam?

You haven't got it

We can't copy this bracelet

You see, each of our designs, is exclusive

We could design one for you and
invite some of the features you like

Here it is, Mrs Pauline Nevins

That was Ralph Nevins

Yes, you see they are friends of mine, I
want to have this bracelet copied for my wife

Your wife?

Yeah,

If you wait a moment
I'll speak to my partner

and see if we can make an exception

- Operator
- Give me the police

Yes sir

That was the position we found the body in

the gun had fallen on the wall
just above the drive way

That's it, Philip

Outside the call about the bracelet
I haven't got a single lead

Not even a hunch

Nothing very plausible, I am going
to check the bracelet

- Hi, Inspector
- Hi

A ghost

I had him trailing Mrs Nevins.
What happened?

She led me down every
backstreet and alley in town

I finally lost her in the
Riverside district

She's a pretty cagey dame

No one is that cagey unless
something to hide

Maybe my hunch was better than I thought

Inspector, what do you think..

Harrison, I got a wiring job for you

I'm leaving for home now, Marsh, I'll have
this report out for you in the morning

And don't forget your raincoat,
it started to rain

Is there anything I can do for you?

Yes, Cathy, there is.
You can make that stew

That's wonderful. We'd better get
to store before it closes

I'll get you the coat for you

Get the door for you

Right up these stairs. Heavy?

No, not a bit

Get your things outside
the door I'll get. Here

Did you finally get friendly
with the birdie?

I know this afternoon. Watched
your apartment for hours

How did you get in here?

Please your landlady
with a twenty dollar bill

It's suicide if anyone knows
you are here, don't you realize

Don't try to brush me off,
Marsh, as I stick, I stick hard

You're drunk

Fix you some coffee

Sure I'm drunk, it figures,
I find your bottle of Scotch

Been here a long time

You are making a fool of yourself

Why have I been here so long time, Marsh?

Do you think time went faster for her?

Cathy has done everything she could to help

It includes fixing dinner
for you, that's great!

She knows how to cook, she is getting
at your heart through your stomach

Whole discussion making me sick

Paulie, I don't want to talk to
you when you are like this

Maybe a good cook but she
is slow, it's two o'clock, why Marsh?

Why her? It's just she is
there when I am not

Paulie, stop, I don't want to discuss her

She is too fair and pure for me to discuss

We can talk about this tomorrow,
we have enough trouble as it is

Why? Because of you. We were going
to be great together

we're going to be great just
the two of us, don't forget

that you're in it every bit as deep as
I am, you got me into it, I killed Ralph

for you, so don't you accu..

You killed Ralph

Marsh, right, I didn't mean to

It was an accident, it was self defense

He had a gun, he was going to kill me

He was going to kill you, he
knew you were down there

I did it for you, Marsh, I did it for you

Why didn't you tell me? Why didn't you
tell the police it was self defense?

It was nothing they could have done to you

Don't know. I was afraid that
no one would believe me

And when you said that they had shot him

I don't know, I don't know what
I thought, I was scared

It doesn't matter now, it's over

The important thing is
that we still got each other

Like it had to happen in this way

We got the money, we got each other

Unless that little tramp changed
your mind for you?

Paulie I get to go to the
office early tomorrow

Is Ralph's desk give you ideas?

You figure now that you
are in the driver's seat

with a little secretary to play
footsie with on a 24 hour shift?

Don't you forget it, it is my company
and I'm paying her salary and yours, buster

You're drunk. You don't realize
what you are saying

Drink this and try to sober up,
I'm going to take you home

Your hands off from me

You're not taking me anywhere

If I was dead, you couldn't
take me to the morgue

- Good Morning, Gentlemen
- Hi, boss

You are back a bit early

Yes, I got back early, thanks to
your blundering stupidity

You told us it was going to be
a simple job, we got hijacked

That's was he was therefore with a gun

OK it was my fault for recommending him,
I tried to tell him but he is green

He doesn't know to pull a job like this

I keep telling you can't relax
in this business

Don't push me fat boy

I'm not interested in excuses

You don't think we
tried to double cross you?

I swear on my mother's grave,
that stuff was hijacked

we couldn't double cross you,
we couldn't handle anything that big

And who got it?

I swear I don't know, I got no idea at all

Job came out simple just like you
said, until we got outside the house

And the guy there with a gun in
the belly and the kid standing there

with his gun in his belt
and this Nevins guy

get killed from I don't know
where he comes

So we think we figure we ought to lay low

You didn't get a look at
the man who hijacked you?

No its dark and we are shooting
at him and he's running who can see?

Hey, how about

How about shutting up, you
have done enough talking

If you been on your toes this
wouldn't have happened

We figure as soon as things calm down
we'll spread out and start looking

Well, gentlemen I see no advantage
in continuing this conversation now

You will not of course leave town

I'll be in touch with you shortly

You with your big mouth, you
almost ruined everything

What you take me for? Why didn't you
tell him about finding Nevin's bracelet?

Look, kid, shut up let me doing
the thinking for both of us

you know what we get for
this lousy safe job

That doll is mixed up in a killing

that bracelet is got to be worth

a minimum of hundred grands with no
hot jewellery to peddle

The jeweler actually saw the
bracelet yesterday, Mrs Nevins

why did you not report this loss at once?

It happened just a few days before

I don't know whether it was a
restaurant or a show we've been to

Would have reported it sooner except
with my husband's death I forgot about it

We have a description of the bracelet,
we already put out a bulletin

The one point we never been able
to clear up, Mrs Nevins, is the motive

On the evening of his death

Mr Nevins made an appointment with his
lawyer on an urgent business matter

You drove him to the office

but he left almost at once without
even talking with Mr Franklin

He left in a rented car

There must have been some very
pressing reason. You have an explanation?

I had very little to do with
my husband's business affairs

It appears to have been
a personal affair, Mrs Nevins

It's often difficult to separate
business affairs and personal ones

I beg you pardon

Nothing. It's just that my husband
never discussed business

What would I have known of anything
of my husband's personal affairs?

She would know if there was
another woman involved

This trip you planned to
take was it a reconciliation?

Whatever it was, it doesn't
matter now, Ralph is dead

That's why we are asking
these questions, Mrs Nevins

One reason for a man to rent
a car is to avoid detection

Tell me did Mr Nevins had
something to hide?

Did you suspect another woman?

Perhaps you even followed him once

Did you Mrs Nevins?

Who was that woman?

Please I can't tell you anymore

Mrs Nevins, a moment ago

you said it was sometimes difficult
to separate business and private affairs

That could mean someone connected
with his business was it his secretary?

I think we better have a talk with her

That's not fair. I can't accuse someone of
murder just because she was close to him

Do you happen to accuse her of
the murder, have you, Mrs Nevins?

You leave the accusations
to us, that's our job

Sorry if we disturbed you, Mrs Nevins

Hello

Who? If this is the lady
who has been calling

he said to tell you he is not here

- Hi, boy
- Mrs Rycker

You get a prize if you finish
the bowl by noon

No lectures, Phyl

There are no lectures. Tell me something,
Paulie, what are you trying to prove?

I saw the two gentlemen callers as I
came in, they looked like a lot of laugh

Six months for talking to myself

You don't mind me taking a swim, do you?

Unfortunately I can't convince Tom

that a plumbing contractor is in
the swimming pool class

Though we do have a sensational bathroom

Paulie, this is the first laugh
I ever heard out of you in days

come on, come on in with me

It's really good, you could use
all that water to chase the Scotch

As a matter of fact I need the exercise, my
waist line is getting a little aggressive

you know what I mean?

Bathing caps, ruin your
social life after five

You're ready

Hey, doesn't it feel great?

Paulie, the police have been
to see me so Tom is getting jealous

I haven't told them anything
because I don't know anything

but all that's doing is hurting you

Is there something I can do to help you?

No, thanks, though no

OK

Mrs Nevins?

Instead of that old cliche "haven't
I seen you some place before"

I'm going to ask you just the opposite
haven't you seen me somewhere?

What do you want?

I think we both want the same thing

Phyl, I wonder if...

I just remembered I had a
very important engagement

A little older than I figured, but I
suppose he has hidden talents

Phyl

You don't have to explain to me, next to
nothing, expected something a little younger

Paulie I had a most divine
afternoon I can't say

I'd love to to stay to have a drink,
but you can't talk me into it

You know how it is to have million
things to do as a matter of fact Tom

is having some guests for
dinner, out of town

you know how that is, I'll check with you

You are a most unlikely
hijacker I should think

you could get anything you
wanted just for the asking

I won't trouble you with the
details of how I finally traced you

and deduced that you murdered
your late husband

I shall come at once at the important
point I'd like to have my jewellery back

Your jewellery? It was Mrs
Lynbury's jewellery

Indeed. Well you see, Mrs Nevins

I am doctor Lynbury

Doubtless you will want me to be seated

I believe I can speak in
perfect confidence with you

because we are in the same boat
so to speak, honor among thieves

If you really are Dr Lynbury, what
was you doing robbing your own home?

That Mrs Nevins is really
an interesting story

unfortunately the talented people
are not always the wealthy people

have you noticed that?

I had talent but no money
until I married Mrs Lynbury

charming woman you must meet her

she inherited among other things
a splendid collection of jewellery

Do sit down, Mrs Nevins

After I married it was
unnecessary for me to work

but I couldn't bear to think
of myself as a parasite

So I copied my wife's entire
jewellery collection in payson stone

I sold the real gems one by one

You mean all those
jewellery we got was false?

Not false in reference to
such superior workmanship

It's true the stones
you hijacked were copies

but it would take an expert to spot them

I wonder if I might have a
little of this soda water

No ice

To return to my story having
disposed of the real gems

it occurred to me that it might
be possible to reap a double profit

So I arranged for the payson jewellery to be
stolen so that I may collect the insurance

It was at this point you
entered the picture

and muddled up what should have
been a magnificently simple job

You can understand how
awkward it would be

if it were discovered that
the jewels were false

I would be faced with the charge
of fraud by the insurance people

you of course would be faced
with a murder charge

Naturally nothing we say
here would go any further

What I'm asking is not at all unreasonable

since in any case the jewels
are worthless to you

Whereas... I can return to you
something of real value

I could have improved upon the
design but it is rather well made

I don't have the jewels

I hope, Mrs Nevins, that you are
not going to make any trouble

because I assure you I have had
no compunction against killing you

You are going to make trouble all right
but not the way you think

You want that junk back go ahead and get it

Where?

At Mr EV Marshall apartment,
152 Marquia Apartment 305

Gentlemen, what can I do for you

We're interested in the little
lady outside, Cathy Stevens

How did she and Nevins get along socially?

Come on, Lieutenant, what's on your mind?

It's just we have reasons to believe
she was more than a secretary to him

Cathy and Ralf Nevins? Ridiculous

After you've been doing the work I
do for a while, nothing sounds ridiculous

Mrs Nevins doesn't think so?

Mrs Nevins told you this?

Certainly, it would explain
things, wouldn't it?

Nevins was carrying on an
affair with his secretary

then he decided to break up with her
and take his wife for a long trip

Secretary knew where he kept the gun

went with him to a deserted
mountain spot and shot him

That is ridiculous

Happens every day

Mrs Nevins is lying

Why should she lie?

What else could she possibly
have against Stevens?

It's just not true

Ask Miss Stevens to come in, please

Look, I tell you she did not
know anything about this

We are paid to make our own decisions

Ask her to come in, please

Miss Stevens would you come in please

Stevens, would you tell us again what you
did on the night Mr Nevins was killed

I went home. I went straight
home from the office

What did you do?

I suppose I went to sleep

Cathy, what they want to know..

Let Miss Stevens tell her
own story, Mr Marshall

You went home and went to sleep.
Can anyone confirm that?

I live alone, Sergeant

About what time was it when
you went to sleep?

I don't know it was late

Can you recall what you
did between the time

you arrived home and the
time you went to sleep?

Let's see. I washed out a few things,
I fixed dinner, I watched television

And then what did you do?

I took a shower and I went to bed

But you didn't go to sleep right away?

No, not right away

And you never left your apartment
at any time that night?

I didn't say that

Suppose you say it now?

Did you or did you not leave
your apartment that night?

Yes, I did

Where did you go?

To Mr Marshall's apartment

I see

I'm sorry

Let's put this right up the creek

It was a good try, Cathy, but why?

They never believe that

I'm sorry. I had to
try to give you an alibi

Give me an alibi?

Yes. You were there. Both of you were there

You and Mrs Nevins

He was going to kill her. And you
killed him to save her

What makes you say that?

I heard the recording he had made

The one you had erased

You knew

From the beginning?

Yes

I tried to pretend I didn't,
I was so afraid for you, Marsh

Afraid to find out

I was even afraid to tell you

I didn't kill him

I swear I didn't

If you only knew what really happened

I only knew that whatever happened
it was not your fault

It was my fault, Cathy

Everything was my fault

It started out wrong and everything
I had done had made it worse

Now I even beginning to corrupt you

Thank you. Thanks for trying to help me

I wish I deserved

You see I love you

I think I have loved you from
the first moment I ever saw you

You are not the kind of man, who can
spend his whole life, lying and hiding

I knew about her

I prayed. I don't mind

I prayed you would not go on sacrificing
your whole life for someone who wasn't worth

Oh, Cathy

I wish I'd known

I'm sorry

No,

You are the one
clean thing in all this dirt

I want to keep you that way

I wanted you to know, no matter what
happens, it can't change the way I feel

I think it can

I'm calling the police

Call for you, Mrs Nevins

Hello, Marsh

Oh, it's you

You better come down here right away

We got a real mess in our hands

This guy decided someone
take over the office

Take over? What about Marsh?

- Left?
- Left. No notice, nothing

He wouldn't even say what's wrong

Who? Cathy is not here either,
she must have left with him

Do what you want

350.000$ we were going to sell them

Cut yourself off from
your home and your family

You must have loved her very much

I'd like to be million miles
away from here

So I could start over

I wouldn't answer that phone if I were you

I'll take that briefcase, please

Just a minute, doctor

Let's have a look at this

Must have been a fortune in here

I suppose you gentlemen

Yes, you suppose right, police, let's go

I may tell you the whole story

Yes, inspector, yes we'll keep watch

Don't let her slip through your fingers

Allen and Jennings are on their way

Yes, sir

- Hello
- Hi

I feel ill, Phyl

Paulie, what's the matter
with you, you sound beefed

More than that. I'm going away,
Phyllis, I don't know where, just away

Listen Paulie. Don't do anything foolish.

You've been in love before and
believe me you can get over it

Besides there is no point
you running away

I can't argue now. No, not up here

Marsh, you came back

Yes I came back. You made sure I would win

you told the police about Cathy, that
was a rotten line thing to do

I'm sorry I was jealous

I wanted to hurt you in anyway I could,
I do not know why I acted the way I did

I don't know why do the most of things I do

Don't start feeling sorry for yourself,
Paulie, there isn't time

Not anymore

It took me until now to see
you as you really are

I get a good look at myself

Look. We can still get away

Forget about the money. Forget
everything. I only want you

I've got a little money of my own, enough
to let us go out of the country

I know it sounds crazy coming from
me, but I want to start over, start clean

Clean? Are we supposed to
forget that Ralph is dead?

Nothing you can do will change that,
nothing can wash away that kind of dirt

Don't you give me that holy stuff,
what are you, some kind of a martyr

You're just as guilty as I am

You were rotten from the beginning, Paulie,
you are nothing but a cheap, ordinary, little

Sorry Marsh

We shouldn't be fighting

darling what's done is done,
we can't change anything

we have to make the best of it,
all that matter is that you're here

You want me, you can't deny it,
or you wouldn't come back

Oh, darling as long as we love each other

I was in love with someone
I thought you were

Someone wonderful, someone I dreamed of

I'll be like that, Marsh

I'll do anything you want,
we'll start all over again

like there has been never any
other people, no one but us

As long as you live you will never
even understand what I thought you were

I'm sorry, Paulie, but it is too late

He is right, Mrs Nevins, it is too late

You called them?

That's why I came back to tell you

You both have to come back
with us to the headquarters

Come on, Marshall

All right, Mrs Nevins, we have to go now

I'll change into something decent

All right if I change up there?

Yes

Don't try to run away,
Mrs Nevins, you won't get far

I've done all the running I am going to

Marsh, Marsh

I told you I am not worth it, Cathy

That's something you just
can't decide for me

I'm sorry Miss Stevens

Let's go
