00:00:30♪♪♪
00:00:40♪♪♪
00:00:52Your name, please?
00:00:54Marjorie Burns.
00:00:56Your occupation?
00:00:58Well, I was a detective in a department store.
00:01:02What is your name?
00:01:03Jimmy Kelly.
00:01:05I am a detective.
00:01:07At least you two should be able to keep track of each other.
00:01:12You sign right on there.
00:01:14We'd like to get married right away.
00:01:17If you're in a hurry, I'm afraid you're in the wrong state.
00:01:21I have a friend, a justice of the peace across the line.
00:01:25I'd be only too happy to send him a telegram if you want me to,
00:01:29to meet you at Red Rock Tavern.
00:01:30Oh, that would be very nice of you.
00:01:36Are you married?
00:01:38No.
00:01:39I was born this way.
00:01:41Ha, ha, ha.
00:02:11♪♪♪♪
00:02:21♪♪♪♪
00:02:44This is the kind of night that gives me the willies.
00:02:49Something's always giving you the willies.
00:02:51As soon as I can save enough money, I'm going to get out of here.
00:02:56I want to be where there's light.
00:03:00Sounds like the wailing of ghosts.
00:03:04What makes ghosts wail, Mrs. Jameson?
00:03:08Oh, Bert, don't ask foolish questions.
00:03:11Go and put another log on the fire.
00:03:14Yeah.
00:03:16Say, Mason, why do you think Wentworth asked us to meet him here?
00:03:21I am the slightest idea,
00:03:24but whatever he has on his mind must be important.
00:03:28Bill's message read the same as ours.
00:03:36But what I can't understand is
00:03:40why he wants to see Gloria.
00:03:44You're not bad at this gag.
00:03:47Have I told you anything yet?
00:03:49Yes, I've taken that journey that you mentioned.
00:03:52And if I place this dark woman properly, you've told me plenty.
00:03:56I should go into this thing as a business instead of...
00:04:02That's a bad card, isn't it?
00:04:08That is the card of death, Harrison.
00:04:12Well, it's funny. I feel all right.
00:04:17Sometimes cards lie.
00:04:21Personally, I haven't much confidence in this sort of thing.
00:04:33That's a bad sign.
00:04:43Well, at any rate, I'll be careful.
00:04:50That's always a good idea.
00:04:54If you'll excuse me, I think I'll go to my room.
00:04:58Certainly.
00:05:12I'll be right back.
00:05:37Here we are, honey.
00:05:39That's a nice fireplace.
00:05:40Can I help you?
00:05:42Yes, do you have a fireplace?
00:05:43We have one inside.
00:05:46Well, the fireplace won't come down. I guess we'll have to go there.
00:05:49Keep the change.
00:05:50Yes, honey.
00:06:01Well, there it is.
00:06:10My name is Kelly.
00:06:12Has there been a man just as of the piece looking for me?
00:06:15No.
00:06:16That's funny.
00:06:17Decidedly inconvenient, too.
00:06:19Well, are you sure you're in the right place?
00:06:21Well, this is the Red Rock Tavern, isn't it?
00:06:23Yes.
00:06:24Well, if my man shows up, I'll only need one room.
00:06:26If he don't, I'll have to have two.
00:06:35I'm sorry.
00:06:36We can't accommodate you, sir.
00:06:38You can't?
00:06:39No, we haven't any vacancies.
00:06:42Well, that's that.
00:06:44Do you mind if we hang around a bit until the justice shows up?
00:06:47Why, no.
00:06:48Thanks.
00:06:55Well, what's the good news?
00:06:56All bad, honey.
00:06:57The guy hasn't shown, it looks like we'll have to sleep standing.
00:07:00He's got me, joint like this out in the middle of nowhere,
00:07:03and doing more business than the Grand Central Railroad Station.
00:07:07What'll I do with these?
00:07:09Oh, just leave them there.
00:07:12Yes.
00:07:14Oh, what a spot.
00:07:16Is this better than chasing petty thieves through a department store, I ask?
00:07:22Yes, it sure is.
00:07:24Oh, starting to answer your own questions, huh?
00:07:26Now, don't stop me.
00:07:28Oh, I'm full of romance.
00:07:31Must be this tavern.
00:07:33The fireplace.
00:07:36I feel so poetic.
00:07:38I could make love to a snowman.
00:07:40If that justice of the peace doesn't show up, the chances are you'll have to.
00:07:45Oh, dear.
00:07:47You know, it is peaceful here and quiet.
00:07:49It's nice.
00:07:50Down here, men!
00:07:52What is that?
00:07:53It came from Harrison's room.
00:08:02What happened?
00:08:04The guards didn't lie.
00:08:06Come on, Jimmy.
00:08:07Wait a minute, punk.
00:08:08You'll have to poke your face in where it doesn't belong.
00:08:10You hug your fire, I'll see what this is all about.
00:08:14I'm through.
00:08:15Through.
00:08:17I can't breathe.
00:08:19Oh, it's getting dark.
00:08:22I'm afraid to die.
00:08:28Look at those marks on his throat.
00:08:31That police dog must have done it.
00:08:34There are teeth marks, all right.
00:08:47What's going on here?
00:08:48I don't exactly know.
00:08:50I heard a terrible moan from Mr. Harrison's room.
00:08:53We'll take care of that killer.
00:09:01Well?
00:09:03Harrison's dead.
00:09:05Where are you going?
00:09:06Get my gun.
00:09:07That dog will never attack anyone else.
00:09:26I should have had that dog put out of the way a long time ago.
00:09:29He's a killer.
00:09:30Hard wolf.
00:09:36Well, what do you think?
00:09:37He hasn't shown up yet.
00:09:39Who?
00:09:40The justice of the peace.
00:09:42No, no, no.
00:09:43I mean about the case.
00:09:44I didn't come here to solve any murder mysteries.
00:09:46My object is marriage.
00:09:51You better be careful of him.
00:09:52Don't worry, I will.
00:10:00You know, it might not be a bad idea to phone the coroner.
00:10:04Yes, surely.
00:10:07I'll do it for you, Mrs. Jameson.
00:10:09Oh, will you please?
00:10:10Gladly.
00:10:14Give me the coroner's office.
00:10:15I knew this would happen.
00:10:18I warned Harrison.
00:10:24How did you know the dog was dead?
00:10:27How did you know the dog was going to attack him?
00:10:31I'll tell you something else.
00:10:34Everyone here is in the shadow of death.
00:10:38The same thing that happened to Harrison might happen to you.
00:10:42Or you.
00:10:45Or me.
00:10:46Come on, set the letters in on your secret.
00:10:50I read it in the cards.
00:10:52You mean you're a mind reader?
00:10:54Oh, cut it out, honey.
00:10:55A mind reader reads minds.
00:10:57You're letting yourself open for a wisecrack there, Jimmy.
00:11:00Stop your clowning.
00:11:02This is a very serious situation.
00:11:05She reads it in the cards.
00:11:08Personally, I think it's a lot of holey.
00:11:14And I'd suggest that you get over here as soon as possible.
00:11:18That's fine, thank you.
00:11:21Goodbye.
00:11:25Goodbye.
00:11:44I hope he killed that dog.
00:11:46Whether he did or not, I think we'd all better turn in.
00:11:49But what about the coroner?
00:11:51Well, I'll wait up for him.
00:11:53I think we'd better get to bed.
00:11:56Say...
00:11:59Couldn't you put us up somewhere for the night?
00:12:01Why, uh...
00:12:03As soon as they take Mr. Harrison's body out, you could have his room.
00:12:08Well, I don't think I could go for that.
00:12:11I'll bunk with Bill.
00:12:12You and your husband can have my room.
00:12:15Well, uh...
00:12:17We're not married yet.
00:12:18I have a large double bed, and if you don't mind, I'd be very glad to share it with you.
00:12:24You can sleep with me.
00:12:26You've got yourself a bed partner, mister.
00:12:28Would you mind helping me upstairs with the bags?
00:12:30The large one goes to this gentleman's room, and the other one goes to the lady's.
00:12:36Yes, sir.
00:12:40Well, I'm retiring. Good night.
00:12:42Good night.
00:12:43Pleasant dreams.
00:12:44You mean pleasant nightmares, don't you?
00:12:48When you come back down, fix the fire for the night.
00:12:51Yes, sir.
00:12:52You'd better stay up.
00:12:54Maybe you'll be able to help the coroner.
00:12:57I think I can take care of everything.
00:12:59If you're needed, I'll wake you up.
00:13:02Good night.
00:13:04Good night, darling.
00:13:06Hi, dear.
00:13:09Well, he got away from me, but we can set a trap for him in the morning.
00:13:12That sounds like a very sensible idea.
00:13:15We've had enough excitement for one evening.
00:13:18Now, let's go.
00:13:22Has Wentworth shown up yet?
00:13:24No.
00:13:25Well, that's funny.
00:13:27When the justice of the peace shows up, call me.
00:13:29Oh, sure.
00:13:31Must have been something very important to detain him.
00:13:33Oh, no doubt about it.
00:13:36Which room are the girls in?
00:13:37That one.
00:13:47Did I scare you?
00:13:48Will you please go to bed and stop playing?
00:13:51Good night, dear.
00:14:01I wonder if I'm making a mistake.
00:14:03Well, he has a sense of humor, hasn't he?
00:14:06Yes, sort of.
00:14:07But even with that handicap, he's the most popular man in the department.
00:14:12The department?
00:14:14Yes. Jimmy's a detective.
00:14:16And if I must say so myself, a mighty good one.
00:14:20Too bad about Harrison.
00:14:23Did you know him?
00:14:24Well, slightly.
00:14:27How long have you been down here?
00:14:29Came down this afternoon.
00:14:31On a vacation?
00:14:33Yeah.
00:14:34Is he working on a case here?
00:14:38Yes, if you can consider me a case.
00:14:41You see, he wants to turn me over to the justice of the peace.
00:14:45It's sort of a light sentence.
00:14:47And believe me, it's one jolt a girl can't be freed from on account of good behavior.
00:14:52No, of course not.
00:14:54Will you excuse me? I'll be back in a minute.
00:14:56Certainly.
00:14:58Well, I guess I'll turn in.
00:15:01Hey, wait a minute.
00:15:03Twin beds in there in my room.
00:15:05Why don't you bunk in there with me?
00:15:09Well, that's not a bad idea.
00:15:11Thanks, I will.
00:15:18I thought you were going to bed.
00:15:19I was.
00:15:20You'll excuse us, won't you?
00:15:22Sure, sure, sure.
00:15:23Sure.
00:15:48Now, what's wrong?
00:15:49You know the boy who was sharing Bill's room?
00:15:51Yes.
00:15:52He's a detective.
00:15:54No.
00:15:55The girl told me.
00:15:56I'm sure we're not responsible for their being here.
00:15:58But I thought I ought to warn you, it's better to be on the safe side.
00:16:07It's Hughes!
00:16:08What's that?
00:16:09Let's find out.
00:16:18Wait a minute!
00:16:20Stay in there, Margaret.
00:16:21Let's find out what all this yelling's about.
00:16:36He's dead.
00:16:38Killed just like Harrison.
00:16:48Turn on the lights!
00:16:53It's Hughes!
00:17:09It's a pity he didn't get that dog.
00:17:12I'm sure he's in there somewhere.
00:17:14It's a pity he didn't get that dog.
00:17:21This is getting on my nerves.
00:17:24We better lock all the windows.
00:17:26So that animal can't get back in here.
00:17:29I'll lock this one and you fellas take care of the rest of them on the ground floor.
00:17:32Okay.
00:17:39Oh, Mason!
00:17:40We're all doomed!
00:17:42I can sense it!
00:17:43Oh, pull yourself together!
00:17:45Take care of her, will you please?
00:17:47This place is spooky!
00:17:49Shut up!
00:17:51Isn't it bad enough to have the tavern turned into a madhouse without you wailing all the time?
00:17:59Take a look at the windows, will you?
00:18:04Sure.
00:18:43Come on.
00:19:01How far has the coroner lived from here?
00:19:04Why, about ten miles.
00:19:06They should have been here by now.
00:19:08Maybe I'd better call him again.
00:19:10Supposing I call him this time.
00:19:14Hello?
00:19:16Hello?
00:19:43Now what's wrong?
00:19:44That's what I'm going to try and find out.
00:20:13Hmm.
00:20:37Hmm.
00:20:43Hmm.
00:20:53Well, that's a clever dog.
00:20:55After he kills his victims, he cuts the telephone wires.
00:20:58What?
00:20:59That's impossible.
00:21:00You're telling me?
00:21:02How do you figure it out?
00:21:05Well, uh...
00:21:07I haven't yet.
00:21:08Of course, you're the logical man to solve this mystery.
00:21:12Now what do you mean by that, Crack?
00:21:15Being a detective, you're naturally more familiar with murders.
00:21:19That is, if these were murders...
00:21:22Oh, are you a policeman?
00:21:24Well, I am an officer, but I'm traveling incognito.
00:21:27I thought you came in a bus.
00:21:29Shut up!
00:21:33Say...
00:21:35How did you know I was a cop?
00:21:38Your feet gave you away.
00:21:44You're not doing so bad yourself there, partner.
00:22:09Mom!
00:22:12That's Margie!
00:22:18What happened, honey?
00:22:20The dog!
00:22:21He tried to get into my room!
00:22:23Are you sure?
00:22:24What do you mean, am I sure?
00:22:26Do you think I could get in this nervous condition all by myself?
00:22:29I can't understand it.
00:22:32I was practicing to be a dutiful wife.
00:22:38Margie!
00:22:47Darling, will you please hush up? Come on.
00:22:52Are you all right?
00:22:53Yes.
00:22:54What do you mean, yes?
00:22:55Look at me, I'm shaking like a leaf.
00:22:58Say...
00:22:59You seem sorry I wasn't bitten to death.
00:23:02Margie, will you please hush? Come on.
00:23:04What do you mean, come on?
00:23:05I want to talk to you.
00:23:06But that dog and that cat...
00:23:07Don't worry, nothing's going to hurt you.
00:23:11It was nice knowing you, gentlemen.
00:23:16What do you think?
00:23:18Do I have to tell?
00:23:28You know, that girl's troubled with hallucinations.
00:23:32I don't think I'll wait any longer.
00:23:34Will you please make arrangements to have me driven back to town?
00:23:36I'm sorry.
00:23:37We're having a car on the place.
00:23:39You'll have to wait for the morning bus.
00:23:41Well, I don't believe there's a chance of any of us getting much sleep tonight.
00:23:45Suppose I make some coffee.
00:23:47That's a grand idea, Mrs. Jameson.
00:23:49And I second the motion.
00:23:51All right.
00:23:52What makes you so sure that the dog I saw wasn't the one that killed those two men?
00:23:56They were not killed by a dog.
00:23:59Come on, break down.
00:24:01I hate mysteries.
00:24:02Why, I don't even eat hash.
00:24:04Listen, you better sit down again.
00:24:07I just got up.
00:24:09You might as well sit down, because what I'm going to tell you is going to knock you down anyway.
00:24:12So just as well relax.
00:24:17See that?
00:24:18Don't tell me you joined the Elks.
00:24:22That's a dog's tooth.
00:24:23I found it in Hughes' room after he was killed.
00:24:26And get this.
00:24:27That's not the tooth of any live animal.
00:24:31There's no flesh around the end.
00:24:33And the enamel's worn off.
00:24:35What in the world are you driving at?
00:24:37The person that killed those two men used a set of false dog teeth.
00:24:45Say, this is thrilling.
00:24:47Boy, can I use this.
00:24:54Sugar?
00:25:02Harrison always liked coffee.
00:25:04Oh, come on, Gloria, snap out of it.
00:25:06I wish I could.
00:25:08You have nothing to worry about.
00:25:10All the windows are locked.
00:25:11That's not going to do any good.
00:25:13It's closer than that.
00:25:17I can feel destruction...
00:25:20near me.
00:25:21Well, drink your coffee, my dear.
00:25:23I'm sure it will make you feel better.
00:25:25Now, remember what I told you.
00:25:26The first thing we've got to do is to find a moment of peace.
00:25:29The first thing we've got to do is to find a motive.
00:25:32Well, I don't think it's up here.
00:25:34Oh, you're impossible.
00:25:36Come on, five and ten cents store detective.
00:25:40This is certainly grand coffee, Mrs. Jameson.
00:25:45How do you feel now?
00:25:47All right.
00:25:54Well, you're just in time.
00:25:56I hope you don't mind my inviting strangers to your party, Mrs. Jameson.
00:26:00Why, not at all.
00:26:01Bert!
00:26:02Bring two more cups.
00:26:04Yes.
00:26:05Well, I see you've pulled yourself together.
00:26:08Yes.
00:26:09Yes, I was a little upset myself.
00:26:12And how do you feel?
00:26:14Oh, never mind, I have a rough idea how you feel.
00:26:17You can joke if you want to.
00:26:19But before this night is over,
00:26:21you'll wish you never came here.
00:26:23Say,
00:26:24what do you think I'm having, a picnic?
00:26:28Oh, thank you, Bert.
00:26:37That must be Wentworth.
00:26:39Maybe he's the justice of the peace.
00:26:55Oh, thank heaven you're here.
00:26:58We thought maybe you had an accident or something.
00:27:00Glad to see you, Wentworth.
00:27:02Sorry if I'm late, Mason, but I left just as soon as I got your wire.
00:27:07You received a message from me?
00:27:10Why, yes.
00:27:12There's something queer going on around here.
00:27:15We all received wires to meet you here.
00:27:17That's right.
00:27:18And they were signed Wentworth.
00:27:20It's a trick, Mason.
00:27:21It's a trick.
00:27:24Well, where's Harrison?
00:27:25And Hughes?
00:27:26They're dead.
00:27:28What?
00:27:29Yes.
00:27:32I knew this would happen.
00:27:34What happened?
00:27:37Where are you, Jimmy?
00:27:38Here I am, in all of my hand.
00:27:40What's going on here?
00:27:41There must be a fuse burned out.
00:27:43I hope so.
00:27:44I don't know.
00:27:45I don't know what's going on.
00:27:47What's going on here?
00:27:48There must be a fuse burned out.
00:27:50I hope you're right.
00:28:03Oh, now what?
00:28:05There's nothing to worry about.
00:28:07Much.
00:28:14Oh, now don't tell me that's a canary.
00:28:17You stay right here.
00:28:19Jimmy!
00:28:21Jimmy!
00:28:42Hello, boy.
00:28:44You want to get in where it's warm?
00:28:47Yes, but you only help me find out who's blaming you for these killings.
00:28:50Huh?
00:28:53Let's see if I can find a piece of rope.
00:29:07This is better.
00:29:16Jimmy!
00:29:34Jimmy!
00:29:42Oh, Jimmy, if this is a gag, I'll break your neck.
00:29:46Jimmy!
00:29:56Who is she?
00:29:57Jimmy!
00:30:16Can't you fix these lights?
00:30:18The darkness is driving me mad!
00:30:27Jimmy!
00:30:34It's little Jimmy Kelly and I've caught the killer.
00:30:38Oh, I could break your neck.
00:30:40Oh, I'm so glad to see you.
00:30:58Hey, how did you manage to get hold of him?
00:31:01I found him out there by that shed.
00:31:03He's a wild baby, all right, but I don't think he'll cause us any more trouble now.
00:31:06I'll say he won't.
00:31:08Are you sure this is the dog we want?
00:31:11Positively.
00:31:12I saw him in Harrison's room.
00:31:14You killer!
00:31:19This is the animal that killed Harrison and Hughes.
00:31:23Have you got a gun?
00:31:24No.
00:31:25Well, Hughes had one.
00:31:29Don't go in there, Mr. Mason.
00:31:31Why not?
00:31:33He's dead.
00:31:35Well, that is news.
00:31:56He sure wants to get rid of this dog.
00:31:59But I can't understand why Jameson said he was part wolf.
00:32:04I think I got the motive.
00:32:05What is it?
00:32:06Revenge.
00:32:08Revenge of what, and by whom?
00:32:13Well, I didn't get that far, but...
00:32:18Go!
00:32:21Go!
00:32:25Go!
00:32:31Huh?
00:32:32What are you honking me for?
00:32:33Well, didn't you say something?
00:32:35No.
00:32:36Oh, I must have been hearing things.
00:32:39You're beginning to get warnings.
00:32:41Just like I did.
00:32:46Oh, they must have paid their light bill.
00:32:50You know, there's something that I'm going to train you to do after we get married.
00:32:54What's that?
00:32:55Keep quiet.
00:32:58I guess Mason's having trouble finding that gun.
00:33:01I'll get my hand.
00:33:02Yeah, and hurry it up.
00:33:14Something's happened to Mason.
00:33:19Here.
00:33:20Hold that dog.
00:33:21Get that dog.
00:33:25Come on.
00:33:31He's dead, all right.
00:33:32He killed the same way as the others.
00:33:34But that's impossible.
00:33:35The dog was in there, muzzled.
00:33:38And it wasn't the dog.
00:33:39How could it be?
00:33:40You're right.
00:33:41These men were killed by a human, who in some way used dog's teeth in order to throw the suspicion off of himself.
00:33:47I've known this for an hour.
00:33:49I suspected Mason as being the guilty person.
00:33:52I tried to trap him.
00:33:54I'll have to ask you all to line up in the next room.
00:33:57What right have you to tell us what to do?
00:33:59He's a detective, or something.
00:34:01Come on, line up in the next room.
00:34:03Then who are you?
00:34:05I'm something, too.
00:34:06You heard her.
00:34:17Now, I'll have to take charge.
00:34:19We all know this animal didn't kill anybody.
00:34:21Let him loose.
00:34:23Well, this is terrible.
00:34:25I don't know what to do.
00:34:27Why, we may all be killed.
00:34:29Probably the killers in this room right now.
00:34:32Where's the nearest telephone around here?
00:34:34The gas station, about two miles down the road.
00:34:37I want you to phone as quickly as you can and have the police come here.
00:34:40Yes, sir.
00:34:41Hey, and bring the coroner along, too.
00:34:44All right, folks.
00:34:46Line up.
00:34:47Let's do this thing systematically.
00:34:49What's the idea?
00:34:50If anybody's got any guns on them around here, I want to know where they are.
00:34:54You frisk the ladies.
00:34:55Right.
00:34:56Bet there hasn't been any gunplay.
00:34:58No, there isn't going to be any.
00:35:00All right, fellas.
00:35:03Don't you think it was a bad idea to send that man for the police?
00:35:06I'll ask all the questions, my friend.
00:35:08Come on, Pollyanna.
00:35:10And I hope you're not ticklish.
00:35:16Please, Mrs. Jacobs.
00:35:18Please, Mrs. Jameson.
00:35:31Come on, Pollyanna.
00:35:34My, my, you should reduce.
00:35:38I'm sorry.
00:35:43I don't suppose you can get out of that chair.
00:35:47I could if you would help me.
00:35:49Surely.
00:36:04All right.
00:36:18You understand?
00:36:20Certainly.
00:36:24I was anxious to have this murderer caught as you are.
00:36:28Maybe more so.
00:36:31I wouldn't have a chance to fight for my life.
00:36:34There, there, Mr. Jameson. Don't excite yourself.
00:36:37Now that we've exposed the killer's methods, maybe he won't strike again.
00:36:41Let us hope not.
00:36:48Where do you keep your guest register?
00:36:50On the hotel desk.
00:36:52Well, that's kind of natural.
00:36:56How am I doing, babe?
00:37:00Harrison's from Philadelphia,
00:37:02Hughes from Portland, Mason from Chicago,
00:37:05and Gloria Roloff from Mexico City.
00:37:09Where did you tell me there was a copper here?
00:37:11We didn't know it ourselves until a few minutes before you arrived.
00:37:14We had no way of warning you.
00:37:17It's all clear to me now.
00:37:19He's the one that sent us those wires.
00:37:21That's possible.
00:37:23But it still doesn't account for the murders.
00:37:26No, they're from all parts of the country.
00:37:29Well, maybe it's a convention.
00:37:38Come here, you three.
00:37:47Sit down. I want to ask you people a few questions.
00:37:50Well, what's on your mind?
00:37:53Tell me, how did it happen that six people,
00:37:55you and the three men that were murdered, got here at practically the same time?
00:38:00Well, it might have been a coincidence.
00:38:02That's right, but it wasn't.
00:38:04This isn't the tourist season.
00:38:05Matter of fact, there hasn't been a guest in this tavern for two weeks.
00:38:08Now, just a minute.
00:38:10Are you trying to solve this mystery or pin something on us?
00:38:14Both.
00:38:16I have a hunch that you and your party came here with one definite purpose.
00:38:20If you wouldn't mind telling me who suggested this place to you,
00:38:23we might be able to clear this whole situation up.
00:38:25Well, I got a message from Harrison and this gentleman here.
00:38:30I thought you only knew Harrison slightly.
00:38:33That's my business.
00:38:35Maybe so.
00:38:36But it might interest you to know that whoever got you here,
00:38:39got you here with one idea in mind.
00:38:42And what was that?
00:38:43To kill you all.
00:38:45I knew it.
00:38:48I knew it.
00:38:49So, you see, gentlemen, the only way for you to help yourselves is to come clean.
00:38:55We'll do anything we can to help you.
00:38:57Why, certainly. Of course we will.
00:38:59Now, gentlemen, that we understand each other,
00:39:02is there anyone you know who would want to put you out of the way?
00:39:05That is, individually.
00:39:07Or shall we say as a gang?
00:39:11No.
00:39:13Take a look through the luggage, kid. Maybe you can find a clue.
00:39:15Mrs. Jameson.
00:39:16Yes?
00:39:18Would you mind going with her, please?
00:39:20Why, certainly not.
00:39:21Let's go.
00:39:30I'm not much on this detective business,
00:39:32but if it's true that somebody planned to get these people here to kill them,
00:39:36then there are only three people who can be considered suspects.
00:39:40And those are myself, my wife, and Bert.
00:39:44Surely you have servants around this place.
00:39:46Yes, we have two maids, but they left shortly after dinner.
00:39:49How do you know they didn't come back?
00:39:50Just a minute. What was your idea?
00:39:53He could have done it.
00:39:54He could have even cut the telephone wires.
00:39:57But I didn't.
00:39:59Mr. Jameson didn't say that you did.
00:40:01He said that you could have.
00:40:03And how do we know that Hughes wasn't killed until after this man went into his room?
00:40:09What?
00:40:12Well, I could have done it, too.
00:40:15I was just getting around to that.
00:40:21Perhaps it's in the closet.
00:40:23Yep.
00:40:24We'll soon find out if that gal brought any of her secrets with her.
00:40:29Oh, I'm tired of all this. I'm leaving.
00:40:31Oh, you're not.
00:40:32One of Mr. Jameson's three guesses might be right.
00:40:34But I can clear myself easily enough.
00:40:36But the bus driver can verify that I...
00:40:37You're staying just the same.
00:40:39Stay?
00:40:41You could be the guy that's doing the dirty work.
00:40:43I've heard of phony detectives before.
00:40:45Wait a minute.
00:40:47Now let's try and get to the bottom of this.
00:40:49Would you folks mind telling me what racket you're in?
00:40:53Chances are we'll find the deck of cards.
00:40:57This is one time it won't do you any good not to talk.
00:41:22Why, you...
00:41:29Come on, let's get out of here.
00:41:39It's locked.
00:41:40We can get out of under the window.
00:41:41Well, let's hurry.
00:41:53Well, we can't get out of here.
00:41:56There are no bars on the windows in Harrison's room.
00:41:58Where is it?
00:41:59Follow me.
00:42:13Windows!
00:42:14Down the window!
00:42:23There is a trap to kill us all.
00:42:24Wait a minute.
00:42:25Maybe that detective can help us.
00:42:27We're trapped.
00:42:32Oh, we're caged like a bunch of rats.
00:42:34Oh, I owe you some.
00:42:37Wait a minute, buddy.
00:42:38Now, hold it.
00:42:39Now, just a minute.
00:42:40We made a mistake.
00:42:41We shouldn't have done it.
00:42:42Your life is just as much danger as ours.
00:42:43Listen to me, will you?
00:42:44The door's bolted.
00:42:45All the windows are barred.
00:42:46We're gonna die, all of us.
00:42:47You gotta help us.
00:42:48Somebody's gotta help us.
00:42:49Come on, buddy.
00:42:50I don't see what I can do.
00:42:51Oh, we've made enemies.
00:42:53Lots of them.
00:42:54We've been smuggling jewels across the border.
00:42:57Oh, I see.
00:43:08Hey, wait a minute.
00:43:21Jewel thieves!
00:43:25Oh, why, look.
00:43:27Here's one as big as a hen's egg.
00:43:30Boy, I'd like to be able to find the hen that could lay that egg.
00:43:41Well, at least we know what their racket is.
00:43:44Can't you think of some person or persons that would want to get you out of the way?
00:43:47How about that guy that accidentally fell off the truck about a year ago?
00:43:50You know, he blamed us.
00:43:51Oh, no.
00:43:52We took care of him.
00:44:03Mrs. Jameson, I'd like to ask you a question.
00:44:05Yes?
00:44:06What is it?
00:44:07Did you build this place?
00:44:08No.
00:44:11Why?
00:44:12Why do you ask?
00:44:13Well, from what these people tell me,
00:44:14it was constructed for just such a situation as this.
00:44:17Why, I don't understand.
00:44:19Every window in this place is barred.
00:44:22I can't believe that.
00:44:27Oh, Jimmy!
00:44:28What is it?
00:44:31Come here a minute, will you?
00:44:34I'll show you.
00:44:38Jimmy!
00:44:39Huh?
00:44:40I want to talk to you.
00:44:41What is it?
00:44:43I've got a clue.
00:44:44You have?
00:44:45Uh-huh.
00:44:46They're jewel smugglers.
00:44:49You're terrific.
00:44:52I'll still show you.
00:45:01There you are.
00:45:02Why?
00:45:04I can't understand it.
00:45:06Why?
00:45:07I can't understand it.
00:45:35Why?
00:45:59I've got to see you.
00:46:01Oh, please don't bother me.
00:46:02Can't you see I'm in enough trouble?
00:46:04From whom did you buy this place?
00:46:06Why, we read it from a Mr. Morgan.
00:46:09He's the owner.
00:46:10Oh, Jimmy, look.
00:46:11Oh, please, hush.
00:46:12What kind of a man is this Morgan?
00:46:15Very odd.
00:46:16He wears large spectacles.
00:46:18He's an inventor, a scientist.
00:46:20When did you see him last?
00:46:22Well, that's strange,
00:46:23but we haven't seen him since the day we took the place.
00:46:26Neither he nor a representative have called to collect the rent.
00:46:29Would you know where to reach him?
00:46:30No, he said he'd get in touch with us.
00:46:35Got another clue?
00:46:36Yes.
00:46:37Well, keep it.
00:46:43Do you know a man by the name of Morgan?
00:46:46Morgan?
00:46:47Yes, I know several men by the name of Morgan.
00:46:50One of them was an inventor.
00:46:52We financed him.
00:46:53Was there any reason for this man wanting to kill you?
00:46:56No.
00:46:57That is, if I...
00:46:58Jimmy, I must see you.
00:46:59Well, take a good look.
00:47:01This is important.
00:47:08What's the big idea?
00:47:10I think Jameson is the man we want.
00:47:13For what?
00:47:14Listen, Jimmy.
00:47:15I saw him get out of his chair and walk.
00:47:18Why didn't you tell me?
00:47:20What do you think I've been trailing you around for?
00:47:23Exercise?
00:47:24Oh, stop clowning.
00:47:26Are you sure you saw him walk?
00:47:27Positive.
00:47:28I always thought there was something funny about that guy.
00:47:32Where's his room?
00:47:42Did you want to see me?
00:47:55Why, uh, yes.
00:47:56Uh...
00:47:58Mr. Jameson, I, uh...
00:47:59I've been thinking over what you said about those three out there,
00:48:02and I wouldn't be a bit surprised if you didn't come pretty close to hitting the nail on the head.
00:48:06I'm going to question them further, and I'd like to have you give me a hand.
00:48:09You can watch their reactions.
00:48:12I'd be glad to help.
00:48:19Now, let's get back to this Morgan fellow.
00:48:21How long has it been since you've seen him?
00:48:23Oh, about six months.
00:48:26That was about the time you took this place, wasn't it, Mrs. Jameson?
00:48:29Yes.
00:49:56Did this Morgan fellow make any threats against you?
00:49:59No, not exactly.
00:50:11Mrs. Jameson, could, uh...
00:50:12I'll have a glass of water, please.
00:50:14Why, certainly.
00:50:15I'll take these things out, too.
00:50:24Did you find anything?
00:50:26No.
00:50:32Give.
00:50:43Here, something belongs to you.
00:50:44It's a dog's head.
00:50:46Where did you find that?
00:50:47Don't you remember where you put it?
00:50:51There must be some mistake.
00:50:52Oh, he can't be the killer.
00:50:53That's what you think.
00:50:57You suspect me of these crimes?
00:50:59Yes.
00:51:01But... but I'm a helpless invalid.
00:51:03I can't even get out of this chair.
00:51:06That's what we thought.
00:51:07But I saw you get out of that chair and walk.
00:51:10Why did you kill Harrison, Hughes and Mason?
00:51:11And why do you want to kill us?
00:51:13Release us from here!
00:51:14Let us out!
00:51:16Come on, confess!
00:51:21I'm the man you want.
00:51:23I killed them.
00:51:24I wanted to kill all of you, too.
00:51:27You what?
00:51:29I'm the murderer.
00:51:31I can't believe it.
00:51:33It's true.
00:51:35I thought I could get away with it.
00:51:38You see, I can walk.
00:51:52I've got strength in my hands, too.
00:51:55I put it on like this.
00:51:57And then I go over their throats.
00:51:59Take it easy, not so fast.
00:52:18I'm sorry, now.
00:52:20I guess I was mad with hatred.
00:52:24Take me away.
00:52:27I'm your man.
00:52:30Why did you do this?
00:52:34You wouldn't understand.
00:52:36Get that rope over there.
00:52:38We'll tie his hands up until the police come.
00:52:40Why did you commit these crimes?
00:52:42Why?
00:52:44Well...
00:52:47What do you care?
00:52:49I've confessed, haven't I?
00:52:54Yes.

00:54:55I'm sure glad we caught him.
00:55:06You've done a swell job, honey.
00:55:08I'm kind of proud of you.
00:55:10Gee, it's nice to hear you say that, Jimmy.
00:55:15I wonder who he's trying to cover up.
00:55:18Who?
00:55:20Jameson.
00:55:22What are you talking about?
00:55:24He's not guilty.
00:55:27If he was, he'd know why he committed those crimes, wouldn't he?

00:59:13We cannot escape this desert is closing in on us.
00:59:14Come clean, Jamison.
00:59:15Come on, clean.
00:59:20I can't tell.
00:59:53Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you,
01:00:23thank you, thank you.
01:00:30You're all going to die.
01:00:35You'll haven't a chance, for three years, I've carefully planned this.
01:00:50a. Few minutes we'll all be dead. Where'd that voice come from from over there
01:00:59some place the work of
01:01:00a maniac.
01:01:21All. Now why.
01:01:26We've got to work back.
01:01:39It leads down in the cellar. If you're going down there we've got to take this
01:01:43life.
01:01:56A lot of.
01:02:19It was the phonograph record we heard. Pretty clever gag at that.
01:02:25Hey this is just
01:02:26a trick to get us down to see what that upstairs door is like.
01:02:28Like. I
01:02:50have a few words to say to you and you listen to me. You'd better listen to one
01:02:56graph. Morgan but you can't tell me I spent a lifetime perfecting an invention
01:03:03that should have made me rich you stole it from me you stole my very life away
01:03:09but but we don't do anything to make matters right it's too late can you give me
01:03:14back my life. Wait
01:03:17a minute but I can't understand is why is Jameson trying to cover you up. What are
01:03:24you talking about he confessed he killed those three men what three men why
01:03:30Harrison Mason and you. Are they dead.
01:03:37Didn't you know that. No then you're on a spot tell.
01:03:45What do you mean never mind that how did you get in here. Through that window
01:03:52then we can get out that way.
01:04:05Why doesn't he kill us instead of torturing us this way. There's no escape for you
01:04:11know. You must. Where's Mrs Jameson the last time I saw her
01:04:18was when I followed her down here you follow her yeah I had
01:04:21a hunch but she isn't here now well then she came up to the lobby before I did it
01:04:26any of you see her no I didn't then she's between here and the lobby.
01:04:41With someone trying to tell me what's going on around here.
01:04:49What. Say your prayers your time on this earth is
01:04:55limited to second. All of you must die.
01:05:02In this life that you are about to leave. The innocent.
01:05:11Yes. Just like I have suffered you're insane if I am
01:05:18when worse than his crowd have made me so. You didn't think you'd have to answer
01:05:25to me did you. I don't know what you're talking about you wouldn't. You are very
01:05:33clever but you're not as resourceful as the person fired with vengeance the desire
01:05:40to write a great wrong give us
01:05:42a chance Mrs Jameson. Give you. You didn't give
01:05:49Helen Armstrong a chance did you have it I'm strong what has she got to do with
01:05:56your mother he has
01:05:57a cold blood everything you framed an innocent young girl to smuggle jewels across
01:06:04the border and then rather than face the disgrace of going to prison she killed
01:06:10herself. From that day I determined that you were all under
01:06:16a sentence of death. And now.
01:06:23I'm ready to carry out your execution Helen Armstrong.
01:06:30Was my sister when my husband first realized I'd use the dog's teeth to kill
01:06:38he utilized almost superhuman strength to protect me. He even confessed to my crimes
01:06:47knowing it was my love for Helen that brought you all here.
01:06:55I want you to look. Carefully. In the ceiling.
01:07:02There you'll see a little glass.
01:07:08All I have to do is to pull this call. It will drop among you.
01:07:16The panel will close. And you'll be caught like rats in a trap.
01:07:32When you are all dead. I will burn the tavern.
01:07:38And destroy all the evidence.
01:07:41All the evidence.
01:07:43The.
01:07:50Game isn't.
01:07:51Home.
01:08:06I wonder what this means I don't know it wasn't this way when I left.
01:08:11Yes.
01:08:16There's a few customers for you.
01:08:19Book her for murder. They're smugglers here's a good full of evidence I'm sorry it took me so
01:08:27long but that's right this way corner pardon me but I'm the justice of the peace why how are you
01:08:33justice glad to see you I thought you told me to get a justice of the peace if I'm not greatly
01:08:39mistaken we did want to see this gentleman why sure that's what we came here for.
