00:01:19 [Music]
00:01:35 We're awfully quiet tonight, Janie.
00:01:38 I've been trying to think of just the right way to ask you to turn around and go back.
00:01:42 On this road? Oh, we can't do it, sweetie.
00:01:45 I mean it, Alan. I'd like you to turn around, please.
00:01:48 What's the matter, Janie?
00:01:51 I tried to tell you before we left home. I just don't like being patronized, that's all.
00:01:56 I don't think I could take another evening of it.
00:01:58 Patronized? Oh, sweetheart, Ralph is one of the nicest guys I've ever...
00:02:02 No, it isn't Ralph.
00:02:04 This diamond-studded wife, looking down her nose at me like a big, ugly house up there looks down on Hollywood.
00:02:12 Please, I'm just not going. Slow down, find a place to turn.
00:02:16 Oh, Janie, you're crazy. Alice likes you.
00:02:18 Please, Alan, I mean it. I'm just not going.
00:02:21 [Music]
00:02:33 What are you trying to do, send us off the edge?
00:02:36 [Music]
00:02:38 All right, we'll turn around. We told them we'd be there, but we'll turn around.
00:02:44 [Music]
00:02:54 That guy almost hit us. Alan, he threw something. It's in the back.
00:02:57 [Music]
00:03:04 Feels like there's paper in it. Paper?
00:03:07 Yeah, it feels like it. Open it.
00:03:09 They threw it in? Yes.
00:03:11 Maybe it fell in. Alan, open it.
00:03:14 [Music]
00:03:39 Quick, Alan, get in. Alan, get in.
00:03:43 [Music]
00:03:57 He's after us, Jane. The bag was intended for him.
00:03:59 [Music]
00:04:08 Jane, what are you trying to do?
00:04:10 [Music]
00:04:29 We've lost him. Slow down. I'll take the wheel.
00:04:32 [Music]
00:04:40 Well, he almost killed us doing it, but we got away from him. Now what happens?
00:04:44 He hasn't hit you yet, Alan. The money was literally thrown in our laps.
00:04:49 No one in the world knows we have it.
00:04:51 Get a hold of yourself, Jane, will you? It's a bag of dynamite.
00:04:54 That was a payoff, probably blackmail.
00:04:56 We turn that bag over to the police or the...
00:04:58 [Music]
00:05:00 Don't stop, Alan. He's almost a block behind.
00:05:03 [Music]
00:05:12 [Music]
00:05:36 What are you two so scared about?
00:05:38 Who's scared?
00:05:39 You are. Didn't you ever get a ticket before?
00:05:42 [Chuckles]
00:05:43 It's supposed to be a big secret, officer, but we're on our way to Las Vegas.
00:05:47 We're the old-fashioned kind. We're a low-paying...
00:05:50 You're still gonna get a ticket.
00:05:52 The next time you make a turn, signal. You think you can remember that?
00:05:56 I'm afraid my mind wasn't on my driving.
00:05:58 You're nervous, Mac. It's the bride that's supposed to be jittery.
00:06:02 Get going.
00:06:03 All right.
00:06:04 [Music]
00:06:08 What's the matter with you, Jane? What were you planning on doing with that?
00:06:11 [Engine starts]
00:06:17 I don't know.
00:06:18 [Door slams]
00:06:23 You had a chance to give up the money. Why didn't you take it?
00:06:27 I'm just asking myself that same question.
00:06:31 We'll take it up to the apartment. I want to look at it.
00:06:36 [Engine starts]
00:06:52 Don't see him, Alan.
00:06:54 What about Kathy? I wonder if she came home yet.
00:06:56 I think she went to a show. Hurry.
00:07:02 [Door slams]
00:07:08 Just called me Driker.
00:07:10 I'm afraid you did startle us a little.
00:07:12 Did my sister come in yet, Pete?
00:07:14 No, I don't think so.
00:07:17 Hey, uh, you folks been away?
00:07:19 Oh, no. Just some things Mr. Palmer had in storage.
00:07:25 [Music]
00:07:48 Did you lock the door?
00:07:49 Yes.
00:07:55 Well, that wasn't very smart.
00:07:57 It'd be a great time for Kathy or someone to come in now, wouldn't it?
00:08:00 You said you wanted to look at it, Alan.
00:08:03 Look at it.
00:08:05 Fifties and twenties.
00:08:08 There must be thousands here.
00:08:10 Yeah, probably a hundred thousand.
00:08:14 It's all money.
00:08:16 The numbers are different.
00:08:18 You could make it work for us for the rest of our lives.
00:08:22 Stop it, Janie.
00:08:23 If we don't report this, it's a felony.
00:08:25 The same as stealing it.
00:08:27 It's a blind alley with a big barred gate at the end.
00:08:33 Let's not try to use it, darling.
00:08:36 Let's just hide it someplace, and then I'll touch it until we know it's safe.
00:08:40 It'll never be safe.
00:08:41 It just won't work.
00:08:44 What is it, Janie?
00:08:45 I just don't understand you.
00:08:47 I've tried to give you everything you wanted, everything I could.
00:08:50 Yes, you've given me a dozen down payments.
00:08:52 Installments for the rest of our lives.
00:09:04 We won't touch it, Alan.
00:09:06 We'll simply leave it where we...
00:09:08 (knocking)
00:09:10 Hide it.
00:09:19 Hide it, quick.
00:09:21 (knocking)
00:09:36 Hi.
00:09:37 Hello, Kathy.
00:09:38 Pete said you were asking about me.
00:09:40 Oh, yes.
00:09:41 Alan was wondering if you were home.
00:09:43 Well, I am.
00:09:45 And since you're twisting my arm, I'll come in.
00:09:50 Where's my dear brother?
00:09:51 Oh, he'll be out in a moment.
00:09:55 How are things at the office?
00:09:56 Well, they gave my boss a promotion the other day.
00:09:59 Maybe they'll get around to giving me a raise later.
00:10:01 You sound as if you're going to make a life's work out of it.
00:10:04 You sound as if you hadn't heard of the man shortage.
00:10:07 On second thought, maybe you haven't.
00:10:11 Greetings, Kathy.
00:10:12 Hi.
00:10:13 How are you?
00:10:16 Don't say "fine" because you look awful.
00:10:25 That's why I love to come here.
00:10:27 Everyone is so gay, so voyant.
00:10:32 I did get the impression from Pete that you wanted to see me about something.
00:10:36 Oh, we were thinking of running up to Ramolis for a snack,
00:10:39 but we changed our minds.
00:10:42 Alan doesn't feel well.
00:10:44 Well, what is it, Alan?
00:10:45 Oh, nothing. It's just a headache.
00:10:51 Well, I hope you both feel better in the morning.
00:10:54 Good night.
00:11:02 Good night, Jane.
00:11:03 Good night, Kathy.
00:11:11 That did it.
00:11:15 I ought to have my head examined.
00:11:17 I was almost sold for a minute.
00:11:19 But we've got as much right to that money as if we went into a bank
00:11:22 and lifted a bag full off the counter.
00:11:24 My little sister drops in and pays us a visit.
00:11:26 Scares us to death.
00:11:28 Of course we were frightened because the money's right here.
00:11:31 But once it's hidden and out of our hands,
00:11:33 there's nothing to be afraid of.
00:11:34 Nobody knows we have it.
00:11:35 Nobody knows?
00:11:37 How about that banshee that chases down the mountainside?
00:11:41 If he can read, he's got our license number.
00:11:43 He wasn't close enough to see our license.
00:11:51 Listen to me, Alan.
00:11:53 I love you, darling.
00:11:55 And if you decide we should never touch the money, we won't.
00:11:59 But do we have to make up our minds now?
00:12:02 Can't we just hide it someplace where it can't be traced to us
00:12:04 and give ourselves time to think it out?
00:12:07 Please help me hide it.
00:12:10 I'll leave the rest to you.
00:12:13 Do you think we should ever touch it?
00:12:15 We won't.
00:12:17 You mean that, Jane?
00:12:18 There'll be no more talk about it.
00:12:19 No bitterness.
00:12:20 I mean it, Alan.
00:12:24 We'll keep it a week.
00:12:30 Last call for the Santa Fe San Bernardino local.
00:12:34 Train number 42 leaves at 1010.
00:12:38 Entering through gate M.
00:12:39 This is the last call.
00:12:46 The Union Pacific, city of Los Angeles,
00:12:49 train 103 is now arriving.
00:12:57 It's done.
00:12:58 Everything's all right now, isn't it, darling?
00:13:00 Yeah, I guess so.
00:13:02 Where's the ticket?
00:13:09 It's all right.
00:13:10 It's here down in the lining.
00:13:11 There's a hole in the pocket.
00:13:14 It's safe there.
00:13:16 What'd you say to the man at the counter?
00:13:18 I didn't say anything to the man at the counter.
00:13:20 But you did.
00:13:21 I saw you.
00:13:23 Oh, yes.
00:13:24 Well, I told him I was going to the hospital
00:13:26 and wouldn't be picking up the bag for a while.
00:13:28 He said it was all right.
00:13:35 [music]
00:13:51 [knocking]
00:14:03 [music]
00:14:12 Fuller, Detective Bureau.
00:14:14 Yes?
00:14:15 Does an Alan Palmer live here?
00:14:18 Yes, my husband's at work.
00:14:20 Well, this is just a routine check, Mrs. Palmer.
00:14:22 We have a license number,
00:14:23 but we're not absolutely sure of the accuracy of it.
00:14:26 May I come in?
00:14:31 Mind if I look around a bit?
00:14:33 Why?
00:14:34 Well, you haven't anything to hide, have you?
00:14:44 No, I can see you haven't.
00:14:48 What's this all about, Mr. Fuller?
00:14:49 I told you, a routine check.
00:14:51 I'd like to look your place over.
00:14:52 Looking for what?
00:14:53 I didn't bring a warrant with me, Mrs. Palmer.
00:14:56 Maybe I should go get one.
00:14:59 If I let you look around without one,
00:15:01 promise to tell me what it's all about.
00:15:04 Perhaps it'll give me something interesting
00:15:06 to talk about at bridge tonight.
00:15:09 Sure, Mrs. Palmer.
00:15:11 Thanks.
00:15:14 ♪
00:15:44 ♪
00:16:04 ♪
00:16:16 Leave them alone. Those are presents.
00:16:22 ♪
00:16:34 So you've already started spending it, huh?
00:16:36 Spending it?
00:16:37 Yes, honey, spending it.
00:16:39 I don't think I like that.
00:16:41 I'm sorry, but you're not making sense.
00:16:46 If you were an innocent housewife
00:16:47 with nothing to hide but the Ice Man,
00:16:49 you'd never let me in here.
00:16:50 You'd have been screaming for that warrant
00:16:52 and sending wires to your congressman,
00:16:53 so let's cut the small talk.
00:16:55 Where's my dough?
00:16:57 Then you're not a policeman.
00:16:58 Only on my mother's side, honey.
00:17:00 Where's the dough?
00:17:02 Those things in the kitchen
00:17:03 happen to belong to my sister-in-law.
00:17:05 And I let you in because...
00:17:07 Well, housewives can get awfully bored sometimes.
00:17:13 But believe me, I have no idea what you're talking about.
00:17:17 You're too smooth, honey.
00:17:19 You're much too smooth.
00:17:21 Where's the dough?
00:17:24 Where's that money?
00:17:25 What did you do with it?
00:17:26 We sent it to the police.
00:17:27 You're a liar.
00:17:28 You would have told me that before now.
00:17:29 I was afraid to.
00:17:30 You should be.
00:17:31 It was mine.
00:17:36 Why would anyone give up that much hard cash?
00:17:38 I don't get it.
00:17:40 In fact, I don't believe it.
00:17:41 It's the truth.
00:17:42 I swear it is.
00:17:43 And I'm supposed to get up now and walk out.
00:17:44 Is that it?
00:17:45 Well, maybe I will.
00:17:47 If you turn that money over to the cops,
00:17:49 it'll be in the papers.
00:17:50 If you didn't...
00:17:51 It will be.
00:17:52 We sent it back last evening.
00:17:54 All right.
00:17:55 I can wait a few more hours.
00:17:57 And I doubt that you or your husband will cry copper.
00:18:01 I'm going to buy an evening paper.
00:18:03 And there better be something in it about money
00:18:05 or I'll be around again.
00:18:09 And I'm afraid I'll be awfully peeved at you, honey.
00:18:14 Bye now.
00:18:16 (door opens)
00:18:37 Alan, you're... you're home early.
00:18:45 But Simmons called me from the bank today.
00:18:47 It seems as if your checks have started coming through.
00:18:50 He thought I might like to know
00:18:51 that our accounts now are a couple hundred dollars.
00:18:54 I was going to tell you tonight.
00:18:56 There were things I needed, Alan.
00:18:58 $580 worth of necessities?
00:19:01 That was yesterday.
00:19:02 How much today?
00:19:03 How much have you spent all together?
00:19:05 $790.
00:19:07 About one-tenth of one percent of the money we have.
00:19:20 So you're counting the money in the bag.
00:19:24 We aren't going to touch it.
00:19:25 Just leave it there and forget about it.
00:19:28 Now you're spending it like mad and keeping books on it.
00:19:31 Because the money's ours.
00:19:33 If anyone knew we had it,
00:19:34 they would have been around by now.
00:19:36 I'm sending the claim check
00:19:37 to the district attorney's office right now, tonight.
00:19:40 Don't I have something to say about that?
00:19:42 I won't let you do it.
00:19:44 I'll take the money and go off by myself
00:19:46 before I let you give it away.
00:19:47 And that's something I won't let you do.
00:19:49 I'm in this now.
00:19:50 If you're caught, I'm caught.
00:19:52 But I wouldn't want you to do it anyway, Jane.
00:19:54 The money won't buy anything.
00:19:56 It'll only make you miserable and unhappy.
00:19:58 Let me be the judge of that.
00:20:00 You happy when you're married, Blanchard?
00:20:03 I'm sorry, Jane.
00:20:09 I didn't mean that.
00:20:12 Jane, Jane, what's happening to us?
00:20:14 What's happening?
00:20:15 The money sits down there in an old leather bag
00:20:17 and yet it's tearing us apart.
00:20:19 It's poison, Jane.
00:20:21 It's changing you.
00:20:22 It's changing both of us.
00:20:23 I wish it were that simple, Alan.
00:20:26 But I haven't changed.
00:20:28 It's the way I am.
00:20:30 You're going to let me keep that money.
00:20:31 Don't, don't you?
00:20:32 No, Alan.
00:20:33 I won't let you just give it away.
00:20:35 Chances like this are never offered twice.
00:20:37 This is it.
00:20:38 I've been waiting for it,
00:20:40 dreaming of it all my life,
00:20:41 even when I was a kid.
00:20:43 And it wasn't because we were poor.
00:20:45 Not hungry poor, at least.
00:20:47 I suppose, in a way, it was far worse.
00:20:50 We were white-collar poor, middle-class poor,
00:20:52 the kind of people who can't quite keep up
00:20:54 with the Joneses and die a little every day
00:20:56 because they can't.
00:20:57 That's why I married Blanchard.
00:20:59 I married the first man who asked me
00:21:00 because I thought he had money.
00:21:04 It's true, Alan.
00:21:06 And you're right.
00:21:08 I wasn't happy.
00:21:10 I was almost glad when--
00:21:11 Jane.
00:21:13 But things have changed now, Alan.
00:21:17 This is different.
00:21:18 We'll be happier than we ever dreamed we could be.
00:21:21 Sure we will, Jane.
00:21:22 But the money won't help.
00:21:24 There'll always be Joneses with a little more.
00:21:27 The only thing worth having is peace of mind,
00:21:30 and money can't buy that.
00:21:32 But you agreed to wait for one week.
00:21:36 All right, we'll wait.
00:21:38 But we're not gonna keep it.
00:21:40 It's almost rector, sweetheart.
00:21:42 But I think it'd take more than 100 grand to do that.
00:21:45 How about it?
00:21:47 I got an idea.
00:21:49 We'll go on a date.
00:21:51 Not tonight.
00:21:52 I've got to see old man Baird tonight.
00:21:54 But tomorrow night, we'll do the same things
00:21:56 we did on the first date, remember?
00:21:58 We'll have dinner at Ramolli's,
00:22:00 then we'll go down to the lake
00:22:02 and get one of those fancy little boats
00:22:04 and go for a ride.
00:22:05 How about it?
00:22:06 Is it a date?
00:22:07 It's a date, Alan.
00:22:09 ♪
00:22:32 You got a good lock.
00:22:34 I don't usually have so much trouble.
00:22:36 Did you think of knocking?
00:22:37 Yeah, but then I thought
00:22:39 about the dull reading I found in the newspaper.
00:22:42 Nothing at all about a bag full of dough
00:22:44 turning up at police headquarters.
00:22:46 Would you care for a drink, Mr. Fuller?
00:22:49 You know, honey, you've got quite a flair.
00:22:52 I like you.
00:22:54 Too bad you're a chiseler.
00:22:56 At the risk of seeming tedious,
00:22:58 just where did you stash my cash?
00:23:01 You didn't tell me if you wanted that drink.
00:23:07 And you didn't tell me where you put my dough.
00:23:09 I don't have your dough.
00:23:12 Let us not haggle.
00:23:13 We're not going to.
00:23:15 My husband has the money,
00:23:16 and two days from now,
00:23:17 he's going to turn it over to the police.
00:23:19 You don't tell me.
00:23:21 Nice story.
00:23:23 Better than yesterday.
00:23:26 I like that trick with your eyes, too.
00:23:30 Oh, I'm just taking my cue like a little gentleman.
00:23:33 You're taking it a little too fast.
00:23:35 Isn't that what you wanted?
00:23:37 Did you notice where the liquor was
00:23:39 when you went through my kitchen?
00:23:41 Sure.
00:23:42 Go make us a drink.
00:23:44 Stalling, honey?
00:23:46 What do I call you besides stupid?
00:23:48 Stupid will do if you don't bruise easily.
00:23:51 Otherwise, you might try Danny.
00:23:53 If you're not stalling, get to the point.
00:23:56 What's on that lovely blonde mind?
00:23:58 I told you.
00:23:59 My husband is going to give the money up.
00:24:01 I don't intend to let him give it up.
00:24:03 Neither do I.
00:24:04 I swear, if you go near him,
00:24:06 none of us will ever see a cent of it.
00:24:08 I'll take my chances.
00:24:09 I'm telling you the truth now.
00:24:11 You won't be able to beat it out of him
00:24:13 or scare it out of him.
00:24:15 If I told him you were here yesterday,
00:24:17 the police would have the money now.
00:24:19 And I...
00:24:20 I don't think I could take it if I lost it.
00:24:23 Let's get something straight, honey.
00:24:25 That's my dough you're talking about.
00:24:27 Only half of it.
00:24:29 You're having a chance of getting it without my help.
00:24:32 Then how do you get it?
00:24:35 I don't know.
00:24:37 I'll work out something. I have to.
00:24:40 I think of losing it, I get deathly sick inside.
00:24:44 You know, I think you're leveling with me.
00:24:47 Maybe I'll string along.
00:24:50 I'll think it over.
00:24:56 I've thought it over.
00:24:58 What's your name, honey?
00:25:00 Jane.
00:25:01 One thing.
00:25:03 When you get that dough, I've got to be in on it,
00:25:05 right at the time.
00:25:07 Otherwise I might make a nuisance of myself.
00:25:09 I... I may need your help.
00:25:11 How can I get hold of you, say... say, by phone?
00:25:14 I'm afraid I can't.
00:25:16 I'm afraid I can't.
00:25:18 I'm afraid I can't.
00:25:20 I'm afraid I can't.

00:25:52 I wouldn't take kindly to it.
00:25:55 What's the matter with you?
00:26:12 That's just to remind you, honey, you're in a tough racket now.

00:27:04 I'll take that, Mike.
00:27:06 [phone ringing]
00:27:08 Hello?
00:27:10 Danny, it's all worked out. We'll get it tonight.
00:27:13 But I've got to know something first.
00:27:15 How do I know you'll be fair with me?
00:27:17 Listen, this is very important. How do I know?
00:27:20 You don't, but I'll tell you something.
00:27:22 You've got ten times the chance to get a straight deal from me as I've got from you.
00:27:25 Now, what's the layout?
00:27:27 Well, be at Westlake Park at 9 o'clock tonight.
00:27:30 There's a big palm tree at the west end of the lake.
00:27:33 A palm tree. Be there.
00:27:35 I'll come along shore on one of those boats and signal you with a flashlight.
00:27:38 Be watching. I don't want to have to do it more than once.
00:27:41 Yes, yes, I'll have the money.
00:27:44 Then why all the complications? Why can't you just meet me somewhere?
00:27:47 I don't think I like your setup. It sounds like a snipe hunt.
00:27:50 It's not a trap, whatever you're thinking, Danny.
00:27:53 I had to choose a place where you'd have to play fair with me.
00:27:57 Danny? Are you still there?
00:28:00 Yeah.
00:28:02 All right, I'll be there. West end of the lake, under the palm tree, 9 o'clock.

00:29:23 [♪♪♪]
00:29:51 What's the matter, sweetie? You seem all tied up tonight.
00:29:54 There's nothing the matter. I feel fine.
00:29:57 Remember what we used to call these rides?
00:30:00 Cruises into nowhere.
00:30:03 Seems a long time ago, doesn't it?
00:30:05 It was.
00:30:07 A long time ago.
00:30:09 We haven't changed a bit, Jane. Not a bit.
00:30:12 Alan, I...
00:30:21 I want to go back to shore.
00:30:23 Why, Jane? We just got started.
00:30:25 Please, darling, I'd like to go back.
00:30:28 Something's wrong. What is it?
00:30:31 Maybe you're right.
00:30:33 Maybe something is wrong.
00:30:35 I feel...
00:30:37 chill.
00:30:39 Let's go back.
00:30:42 Alan, let's put the claim check in an envelope and put it in the mailbox.
00:30:47 I don't want to keep it anymore.
00:30:49 So that's it. The money again.
00:30:52 Look, sweetheart, let's forget it. I have.
00:30:55 Now that we're here, let's relax and have a...
00:30:59 Oh, doggone it. I must have left my cigarettes at Romoli's.
00:31:02 Do you have a...
00:31:03 No.
00:31:04 What have you got in the bag? It weighs a ton.
00:31:06 There are no cigarettes in there, Alan.

00:31:34 (music playing)
00:31:37 (music playing)
00:32:06 You're ten minutes late. What's the...
00:32:10 What happened?
00:32:11 It's Alan, my husband. He's dead.
00:32:13 Don't move, Danny.
00:32:17 So that's what I heard.
00:32:19 A shot, not a backfire.
00:32:21 Yes, and I need your help.
00:32:23 Some other time.
00:32:25 I don't want the money that bad.
00:32:28 Do you take me back to shore or do I swim?
00:32:30 If you move, I'll shoot you.
00:32:32 And tell them you killed my husband.
00:32:35 If I go along with you, I get the gas chamber.
00:32:39 I wonder how good a shot you are.
00:32:41 There'll be no gas chamber for either one of us, Danny.
00:32:43 If they saw me get on this boat with my husband,
00:32:45 they're going to see me get off with him.
00:32:47 He'll be wearing his hat and coat.
00:32:49 We've got nothing to worry about.
00:32:52 Until his body comes floating up.
00:32:55 We're going to see that it doesn't.
00:32:58 (thunder)
00:33:01 (music)
00:33:10 You're quite a gal, Mrs. Palmer.
00:33:14 (music)
00:33:43 That's for being so sweet.
00:33:45 Thanks, come again.
00:33:46 We intend to.
00:33:48 (music)
00:34:04 This is the stuff from his pockets.
00:34:06 Take it.
00:34:07 I don't like frisking stiffs.
00:34:11 What are you going to do with it?
00:34:13 Never mind.
00:34:14 Let's go quick.
00:34:15 Sure, let's go get the dough.
00:34:16 Listen, we're not in the clear yet.
00:34:18 They've got to see you.
00:34:19 They've got to think Alan brought me home.
00:34:22 I'll meet you at quarter to twelve at sixth in Beachway.
00:34:27 Then we'll go get the money.
00:34:28 Where?
00:34:30 Coldwater Canyon.
00:34:31 It's hidden there.
00:34:33 Yeah, this afternoon you said you'd have it in the boat with you.
00:34:36 You're in no position to pull another cross up, honey.
00:34:38 You know that, don't you?
00:34:39 Yes, I know it.
00:34:40 Danny, please hurry.
00:34:56 Pete, Mr. Palmer would like to have the car washed tonight.
00:34:59 Could you do it?
00:35:01 Sure thing, Mr. Palmer.
00:35:06 Oh, Alan, get me some cigarettes while you're there, will you?
00:35:10 Sure.
00:35:26 Did I get you up?
00:35:27 No, I was reading.
00:35:28 I guess I must have dozed.
00:35:30 Alan's gone down to the corner to get a bottle.
00:35:33 Why don't you come in and have a nightcap with us?
00:35:35 Oh, I'd love to.
00:35:36 I was beginning to think you were amiss with me or something.
00:35:39 I'll tell you why.
00:35:48 You mean to say Mr. Palmer didn't come in there at all?
00:35:52 Thank you.
00:35:55 I don't understand it.
00:35:56 Pete says he hasn't seen him since he drove out of here a half hour ago.
00:36:00 And the people at the drugstore say he hasn't been there at all.
00:36:02 Well, don't worry about it.
00:36:03 Maybe he went over to the drive-in for some hamburgers.
00:36:06 Yes, I suppose so.
00:36:13 I don't understand it.
00:36:14 What could have happened to him?
00:36:15 It's over an hour.
00:36:16 If nothing's happened, why doesn't he call?
00:36:18 I don't know, Jane.
00:36:19 Let me fix you a drink.
00:36:30 Will you connect me with police headquarters, please?
00:36:33 Yes, it's an emergency.
00:36:35 Hello, I'd like to check on automobile accidents.
00:36:39 It's my husband.
00:36:40 He's missing and--
00:36:41 Lady, the missing person's detail closes at 5 p.m.
00:36:45 You mean you can't do anything for me tonight?
00:36:48 How long has he been missing?
00:36:52 Lady, we can't do anything tonight.
00:36:54 If he doesn't show up by tomorrow,
00:36:56 you come down here and make a report in person
00:36:58 and we'll go to work on it.
00:37:00 Yes, ma'am.
00:37:01 Okay.
00:37:04 Jane, here's your--
00:37:09 Jane, you have a whole shelf of whiskey out there.
00:37:11 You told me Alan had gone to get a bottle.
00:37:13 That's right.
00:37:14 That proves it.
00:37:16 He never intended to go to the drugstore at all.
00:37:23 There--there's something I haven't told you, Kathy.
00:37:27 I've known it for a long time.
00:37:29 Alan doesn't love me anymore.
00:37:31 He's beginning to get tired of me.
00:37:33 That's ridiculous and you know it.
00:37:35 It's true, Kathy.
00:37:36 We've been quarreling a lot lately
00:37:38 about little unimportant things.
00:37:40 I--I bought some clothes the other day
00:37:42 and it made him terribly angry.
00:37:44 Please, Jane.
00:37:45 Alan will be home soon.

00:51:46 Where have you been, Jane? Is there any news?
00:51:49 No.
00:51:52 Why aren't you at work?
00:51:54 Work? With Alan just swallowed up someplace.
00:51:56 Where have you been?
00:51:58 Walking, thinking, trying to figure this thing out.
00:52:00 Jane, I thought of something this morning.
00:52:02 If Alan just, well, just went away, don't you...
00:52:05 What do you mean if he just went away?
00:52:07 What else could have happened?
00:52:09 I don't know. Nothing seems to make any sense.
00:52:12 Does it ever?
00:52:14 I thought of a way we might be able to tell. Alan's gun.
00:52:18 He loved that gun. It was the only thing he saved from his army days.
00:52:22 If he'd known he was going away, I think he'd have taken it with him, don't you?
00:52:26 We can easily find out.
00:52:29 [music]
00:52:45 What's the matter with you?
00:52:47 Nothing, I...
00:52:48 [knocking]
00:52:50 I think I know who it is, Jane. It's a friend of Alan's.
00:52:53 I ran into him in the hall. He said he'd be back.
00:52:56 [music]
00:53:05 Are you Mrs. Palmer?
00:53:07 Lieutenant Breach, Homicide Division.
00:53:11 May I come in?
00:53:13 [door opens]
00:53:15 You don't seem to have expected me.
00:53:21 Should I have?
00:53:22 Well, didn't you report it?
00:53:24 Oh, my apologies, Mrs. Palmer. I see what's wrong now.
00:53:28 The missing persons detail is part of the Homicide Division.
00:53:31 I've been assigned to the case you reported.
00:53:33 Oh, I'm afraid you frightened me for a minute, Lieutenant.
00:53:37 I was afraid something had happened.
00:53:39 I'm sorry.
00:53:41 Oh, Lieutenant Breach, my sister-in-law, Mrs. Palmer.
00:53:45 Won't you sit down?
00:53:48 I've been trying to get you by phone, Mrs. Palmer.
00:53:51 I have some information for you you might prefer to discuss privately.
00:53:56 Mrs. Palmer is my husband's sister. Go ahead.
00:54:00 Is there anything you would like to add?
00:54:02 Something you didn't put into your report?
00:54:05 No, not a thing.
00:54:07 Mrs. Palmer, there's nothing illegal about being missing.
00:54:13 We only work on a missing persons case if it's a juvenile
00:54:17 or if there's some evidence of foul play or suicide or an accident.
00:54:22 When we get evidence that it is something else, and it usually is,
00:54:26 we don't touch it.
00:54:28 I see.
00:54:29 So you see, Mrs. Palmer, it isn't exactly playing ball with us to hold anything back.
00:54:34 Hold what back, Lieutenant?
00:54:37 The other woman, Mrs. Palmer.
00:54:41 What... what do you know about her?
00:54:46 Well, it's the only thing we've uncovered so far.
00:54:50 A Bel Air resident, he's vice president of a furniture plant out in Vernon,
00:54:54 was pulling out of his driveway last night when this car, your car,
00:54:58 driven by a woman, almost crashed into him.
00:55:01 A man dressed like you described your husband,
00:55:04 same size, everything, gets out of the car.
00:55:07 Apparently they'd had a quarrel.
00:55:09 Well, that's about all our informants saw.
00:55:12 All he did was spot the license number.
00:55:16 There might have been foul play, I doubt it.
00:55:19 I suspect they patched it up.
00:55:22 Do you know anything about this woman, Mrs. Palmer?
00:55:26 Not very much, I'm afraid.
00:55:29 I've only seen her once or twice.
00:55:32 She's a little taller than I am.
00:55:35 Hair a little darker.
00:55:37 Brown eyes, I think.
00:55:40 But... I don't know her name or where she lives.
00:55:44 Jane, you never told me. Why?
00:55:47 Because I didn't think it meant...
00:55:50 Hello?
00:55:57 Yes. It's for you.
00:56:00 Oh, I told the Bureau I'd be here.
00:56:03 Thank you.
00:56:06 Hello? Yes?
00:56:09 Uh-huh.
00:56:12 Okay. Thanks. Good-bye.
00:56:15 I'm afraid that wraps it up.
00:56:18 If you really want some action on your husband, Mrs. Palmer,
00:56:21 I'd suggest you bring in some private help.
00:56:24 Your car was located 12 miles south of San Diego,
00:56:27 just this side of the Mexican border.
00:56:29 Your husband wasn't in some kind of trouble, was he, Mrs. Palmer?
00:56:32 No. Or not that I know of.
00:56:35 Are you sure it was our car?
00:56:37 Yes. I'll see that it's sent back. Good luck.
00:56:40 And thank you, Lieutenant.
00:56:43 Good-bye.
00:56:47 I know Alan wasn't seeing another woman, and so do you.
00:56:53 Where Alan's concerned, my dear, you're blind.
00:56:56 It's time you knew it.
00:56:58 Your description of this other woman, Jane, it sounded very much like you.
00:57:01 What do you mean by that?
00:57:03 Who are you trying to imply?
00:57:05 I'm not quite sure.
00:57:08 Well, hello again.
00:57:10 We always seem to be colliding in hallways, don't we?
00:57:13 Yes, we seem to. Jane, this is the man I mentioned to you.
00:57:16 He flew with Alan. Mr. Blake, my sister-in-law.
00:57:19 How do you do, Mrs. Palmer? How do you do?
00:57:21 I'm sorry to hear about Al, but I'm sure he'll turn up soon.
00:57:24 Thank you.
00:57:26 Will you excuse me, Jane? Mr. Blake.
00:57:29 Well, she seems to be a bit upset.
00:57:32 Has there been some news about Alan?
00:57:34 No, but they were very close, you know.
00:57:37 Oh, I know.
00:57:39 Did you want to see Alan about anything special?
00:57:42 Oh, no. We were just very good friends.
00:57:45 I see. Would you like to come in?
00:57:48 All right.
00:57:50 Kathy didn't tell me much about you, Mr. Blake.
00:58:00 Did you know Alan well?
00:58:02 Well, I thought I did.
00:58:04 It'd be hard to believe Al took after some wild geese.
00:58:07 He was always an advocate of the home and heart.
00:58:10 I always thought so. Won't you sit down?
00:58:13 All right.
00:58:15 Go ahead.
00:58:20 I was about to say I'm here on a vacation, and I was wondering if I might help in any way.
00:58:24 I think the police are doing all that can be done.
00:58:27 What did Alan usually call you, Mr. Blake?
00:58:30 Don. When there were ladies present.
00:58:33 Which wasn't often, I hope.
00:58:36 What squadron were you flying with?
00:58:38 The same as Alan's, Mrs. Palmer.
00:58:40 Wouldn't you rather call me Jane?
00:58:43 All right.
00:58:45 Would you like a drink?
00:58:47 I didn't think it was that noticeable.
00:58:49 - What? - The thirsty look.
00:58:51 Come on, let me help. Let me watch.
00:58:54 Where were you stationed in England?
00:58:56 Don't you know?
00:58:58 Of course. I keep forgetting.
00:59:01 Stonehurst or something like that, wasn't it?
00:59:04 Yeah, something like that.
00:59:06 I didn't know we had any operations at Stonehurst.
00:59:09 All those places in England used to sound alike to me.
00:59:13 I seem to worry you, Mrs. Palmer. Why?
00:59:26 Why do you say that?
00:59:28 Oh, I don't know.
00:59:30 I sense a third-degree quality in this conversation.
00:59:33 Could I be wrong?
00:59:35 Yes, you're wrong.
00:59:37 I'm just curious about you, Mr. Blake.
00:59:40 No, you don't worry me.
00:59:43 But it's possible you're beginning to intrigue me.
00:59:46 Oh.
00:59:48 Let's wait till we're sure Al isn't coming back, hmm?
00:59:51 You made quite a bit out of that remark of mine, didn't you?
00:59:54 I didn't think I made any more out of it than I found there.
00:59:58 I'm afraid you did.
01:00:00 If I should hear from Alan, where can he get in touch with you?
01:00:04 I'm staying at the Villa Vista Hotel.
01:00:07 Oh, by the way, on my way out,
01:00:09 shall I take the guy in the plaid suit off your back?
01:00:12 What did you say?
01:00:14 Looks a little pale. I think I can handle him all right.
01:00:17 What are you talking about?
01:00:19 The guy in the plaid suit.
01:00:21 He was lurking around the dark end of the hall,
01:00:24 making like a tenant trying to find a key.
01:00:27 I watched him for a while as I got off the elevator.
01:00:30 Made him nervous.
01:00:32 That's right. They're looking for Al.
01:00:35 They probably figured the best place to find him is where he lives.
01:00:39 Thanks for the drink, Mrs. Palmer.
01:00:52 (door opens)
01:00:54 (whispering)
01:01:00 (whispering)
01:01:02 Hello, Mr. Jack Sharber, please.
01:01:08 Mr. Sharber, this is Jane Palmer, Alan's wife.
01:01:11 Yes, oh, fine.
01:01:13 Mr. Sharber, you were at Ipswich with Alan, weren't you?
01:01:16 Do you remember a Don Blake?
01:01:19 No, Blake.
01:01:21 You don't? Mr. Sharber, could you drop by here tonight?
01:01:25 It would only have to be for a minute or so.
01:01:28 Could you come by tomorrow, then?
01:01:36 All right, fine. It's the Chateau Michelle, apartment 514.
01:01:41 Thank you, Mr. Sharber. Tomorrow night then, 7 o'clock.
01:01:44 Goodbye.
01:01:46 You stupid fool. You were seen out there.
01:01:51 The man who saw you was a detective.
01:01:53 Relax, Tiger. There are other people on this floor, you know?
01:01:56 What do you want?
01:01:58 Find a ticket?
01:02:00 No.
01:02:02 Too bad. I don't like to think what'll happen inside you if you don't.
01:02:05 I came up to tell you something, Tiger.
01:02:08 If you get that dough and dust with it, it'll be very, very bad.
01:02:11 I don't intend to.
01:02:13 Fine. But let me tell you why it'll be very, very bad.
01:02:16 You want to know about that, don't you?
01:02:18 Listen, Danny, we can't be fighting each other now.
01:02:21 Yeah? Why?
01:02:23 Kathy, my sister-in-law, she's getting suspicious.
01:02:26 She's beginning to figure the whole thing out.
01:02:28 Oh, what's she got?
01:02:30 She heard me come in last night. I denied it, but I know she doesn't believe me.
01:02:33 She knows Alan wouldn't have gone out to get liquor because it was plenty here.
01:02:36 She knows Alan's gun was gone. I don't know how, but she does.
01:02:39 She's going to trip us up, Danny. I know it.
01:02:42 Maybe it's time to clear out. Jog it up to experience.
01:02:45 We can't. We've got to stay here until we find that ticket.
01:02:48 You mean stay here till she tells her story to the cops, is that it?
01:02:52 She's not going to tell her story.
01:02:55 You're going to help me again, Danny.
01:02:58 Help you do what?
01:03:05 You've got no other choice. We can't just wait and let her kill us.
01:03:09 I didn't mean to kill Alan, but it's done. And now it's our lives against hers.
01:03:13 We kill her, huh? Do you really think you can get away with that?
01:03:17 Yes. Kathy was all wrapped up in Alan.
01:03:20 She missed work today. She's what the papers will call despondent.
01:03:24 She... she's going to take poison because of it.
01:03:28 You're going to get it for me.
01:03:31 Sorry, Mrs. Palmer. I'd rather take my chances.
01:03:35 You don't think I want to do it? I couldn't kill Alan.
01:03:38 I tried to convince myself I could kill him, but when the time came, I couldn't do it.
01:03:41 How did he die? Pneumonia?
01:03:43 It was an accident. He opened my purse and the gun fell out.
01:03:46 I don't know what happened after that. I killed him.
01:03:49 But I didn't know it then, and I'm not going to die for it.
01:03:52 We've got to do it, Danny. We've got no other choice.
01:03:55 Get me something, Danny.
01:03:58 You know how to get it. I'll do the rest.
01:04:02 We can't put it off.
01:04:04 You are a tiger. You got me in so deep, I can't get out.
01:04:08 I'll get the stuff for you, but like you say, you've got to do the rest. Every bit of it.
01:04:13 When I get back, make sure she's not around. I don't want to see her, not even for a second.
01:04:17 And I don't want to talk about this or her again.
01:04:20 I'll get you some money.

01:05:27 - Oh, hello. - Hello.
01:05:31 - How did you make out with Jane? - She's crazy about me.
01:05:37 Do you know where they went last night, before Alan disappeared?
01:05:40 Yes.
01:05:42 Do you happen to have any pictures around of Jane and Alan?
01:05:44 Why, yes. Why?
01:05:46 Well, the police won't do anything until they're convinced something's wrong.
01:05:49 We're going to find something to convince them.
01:05:51 How did you know that about the police? Did Jane...
01:05:53 Get in your coat, Miss Palmer, honey. We're going sleuthing.
01:05:56 Waiting for a boat, mister?
01:06:11 Well, not right now, but I would like to ask you a couple questions.
01:06:14 Look, I don't know what makes him run, mister. I ain't no good with motors.
01:06:17 Well, maybe you're good at faces.
01:06:19 Remember the last time you saw him?
01:06:22 Yeah, I seen him.
01:06:24 But I'll be darned if I remember when.
01:06:26 Maybe this will help.
01:06:28 Yeah. Last night. They was here last night.
01:06:33 Hey, you a cop?
01:06:35 Do I look like one?
01:06:37 I never seen any of your did.
01:06:39 I just happen to be a friend of his, and he, uh...
01:06:42 Disappeared last night.
01:06:44 Do you remember anything about them, how they behaved?
01:06:46 Or if they were quarreling or anything?
01:06:48 They acted like any corny people.
01:06:51 I don't know.
01:06:53 There you are, buddy. Thanks very much.
01:07:05 Are you sure there isn't anything else you can tell us?
01:07:08 They were pretty fast with a buck, too.
01:07:10 He give me one to get one of the big boats, and when they come back, she...
01:07:14 You know, I just thought of something.
01:07:16 She paid. He helped her out of the boat, real polite-like.
01:07:19 And he goes upstairs, and she goes over there and pays.
01:07:22 Hmm. Some guy.
01:07:24 Well, they're married, you know.
01:07:26 Oh, that explains everything.
01:07:28 Thanks.
01:07:30 You know, uh, the man usually pays for things, even when he's married to the girl.
01:07:34 Uh, did Alan happen to be an exception to that rule?
01:07:37 He is rather absent-minded. You must have noticed that.
01:07:40 Oh, ho, ho, sure, sure. That's right.
01:07:44 Well, I think we'd better say goodnight here.
01:07:47 I think it's better if Jane doesn't see us together too much.
01:07:50 All right.
01:07:52 Well, I sort of made saying goodnight sound like quite a project, didn't I?
01:07:57 Yes, I thought so.
01:07:59 (Chuckles)
01:08:01 Oh, ten days in town.
01:08:04 I don't think you'd go for that long.
01:08:09 I'm sure you'd be happy to.
01:08:11 I don't think you'd go for that kind of a deal, would you?
01:08:15 I might.
01:08:17 But I see what you mean.
01:08:19 Goodnight, Miss Palmer, honey.
01:08:26 Did you really fly with Alan?
01:08:30 Hey, hey, hey, what kind of a question is that?
01:08:33 An honest one. I hope you'll give me an honest answer.
01:08:37 You seem so terribly concerned about what happened to Alan.
01:08:41 That you never talk about him as though you really knew him.
01:08:45 Well, uh...
01:08:47 maybe there's a reason, Kate.
01:08:50 Maybe, uh, I'm afraid if I did, I'd be talking about him in the past tense.
01:08:55 What makes you say that?
01:08:57 Oh, I don't know.
01:08:59 Just a peculiar feeling I've had...
01:09:02 about Jane.
01:09:05 Now, look, let's get squared away on her first.
01:09:08 And then I'll talk about myself till you cry, Uncle.
01:09:11 You know, I'm one of my favorite topics.
01:09:13 All right, Don.
01:09:15 - Goodnight. - Oh, wait, wait.
01:09:17 There's just one other thing.
01:09:19 There's something going on here, Kathy, and it's not very pretty.
01:09:23 Now, don't ask me what it is or why I think so, but...
01:09:27 bear with me, Kate, will you?
01:09:31 I have to trust someone, Don.
01:09:35 I'd like it to be you.
01:09:37 I'd like it to be you.
01:09:39 Goodnight, Don.
01:09:47 Goodnight, Kathy.

01:10:26 Who is it?
01:10:28 You really want me to answer that?
01:10:30 Right out here in front of...
01:10:32 You're drunk.
01:10:36 It takes one to spot one.
01:10:38 Did you get it?
01:10:47 The best, Duchess.
01:10:49 Nothing but the best for you, Duchess.
01:10:51 I say let's kill these people in style.
01:10:55 There's enough there to kill most of the people you don't like.
01:10:59 Now, let me hold that little bottle while you go fix me a drink.
01:11:03 You've had enough to drink.
01:11:05 Get out of here and get yourself sober.
01:11:07 I don't like you this way.
01:11:09 You know what the man said or sold me this?
01:11:12 He said I didn't look like the type of guy he was used to dealing with.
01:11:17 I looked him right in the eye.
01:11:19 And I said, "You mean I don't look like a killer, huh?"
01:11:23 You know what he said?
01:11:25 He said, "No, you don't."
01:11:28 [laughs]
01:11:30 I wonder what he would have said if you'd bought the stuff, tiger.
01:11:39 Shh.

01:12:18 [knocking]
01:12:22 [knocking]
01:12:24 Hi.
01:12:25 Hi.
01:12:27 Well.
01:12:29 How'd you know I was going to ask you out to dinner?
01:12:31 I didn't.
01:12:32 Well, then why do you look so nice?
01:12:34 Well, thank you, sir, but I just got home from work.
01:12:36 I look a fright and you know it.
01:12:38 Oh, sure you do.
01:12:39 I know just the best place for us.
01:12:41 All the best frights go there.
01:12:43 And I was going to settle for a glass of milk.
01:12:45 Oh, no, it'll keep.
01:12:47 You go ahead.
01:12:48 I'll put it in the refrigerator.
01:12:50 [music playing]
01:12:53 [music playing]
01:12:55 Don, after dinner, I'd like you to take
01:13:18 me down to Union Station.
01:13:20 Kind of sudden, isn't it?
01:13:21 You plan to be going long?
01:13:23 I found-- I found this yesterday.
01:13:25 It was hidden in the drawer of Allen's and keeps his gun.
01:13:29 What do you mean, after dinner?
01:13:31 Maybe this is the answer.
01:13:32 Oh, I-- I was just about to knock.
01:13:38 What did you want, Jane?
01:13:39 As a matter of fact, I-- I wanted
01:13:41 to get a hold of you, Mr. Blake.
01:13:43 There's someone in my apartment I'd like you to meet.
01:13:46 A man named Sharber.
01:13:48 Well, maybe some other time, Mrs. Palmer.
01:13:50 There won't be another time.
01:13:52 I'm leaving tomorrow, perhaps sooner.
01:13:54 Jane, did you hear from Allen?
01:13:55 No.
01:13:57 They brought the car back today.
01:13:59 I-- I found a note in it from Allen.
01:14:02 He's somewhere in Mexico, and I intend to find him.
01:14:04 May I see it?
01:14:05 What did he say?
01:14:07 It-- it was rather personal, Kathy.
01:14:09 He-- he asked me to forgive him.
01:14:12 Told me I could do whatever I wanted with his things.
01:14:16 That's all?
01:14:17 That's all.
01:14:19 Won't you come, Mr. Blake?
01:14:21 It's only for a minute.
01:14:23 All right.
01:14:24 You two don't seem to know each other.
01:14:48 Should we?
01:14:49 Mr. Sharber, this is Don Blake.
01:14:52 He was stationed with you and Allen at Ipswich.
01:14:55 He says.
01:14:57 I say that to all the girls.
01:14:58 Let's go, Kate.
01:14:59 You never flew at Ipswich, Jack.
01:15:00 What are you trying to pull?
01:15:02 Not a thing, Mac.
01:15:04 I'm leaving Caffey.
01:15:05 I'd like you to come along with me.
01:15:07 No.
01:15:08 And I'd like what I gave you a minute ago.
01:15:12 Let's talk about it outside.
01:15:14 I've-- I've already kept you too long, Mr. Sharber.
01:15:16 I found out what I wanted to know.
01:15:19 You sure you're all right?
01:15:21 Quite all right.
01:15:22 Good night, Mr. Sharber.
01:15:23 Good night.
01:15:24 Thank you.
01:15:25 And now I'll take that ticket, please.
01:15:35 The ticket belongs to me, Mr. Blake.
01:15:38 If I have to shoot you to get it,
01:15:39 I'll be quite within my rights.
01:15:41 I'm afraid you won't be.
01:15:44 You can have the ticket.
01:15:46 All you have to do is reach into my pocket and take it.
01:15:49 Turn around.
01:16:05 Get me the Hollywood police, quick.
01:16:07 It's an emergency.
01:16:09 Hello, I'm calling from the Chateau, Michelle.
01:16:11 You've got to send someone up here quickly.
01:16:14 514, hurry.
01:16:16 Catherine Palmer, hurry.
01:16:18 I'm sorry, Michelle.
01:16:30 I'm sorry.
01:16:32 I'm sorry.
01:16:34 I'm sorry.
01:16:35 I'm sorry.
01:16:36 I'm sorry.
01:16:37 I'm sorry.
01:16:38 I'm sorry.
01:16:39 I'm sorry.
01:16:40 I'm sorry.
01:16:41 I'm sorry.
01:16:42 I'm sorry.
01:16:43 I'm sorry.
01:16:44 I'm sorry.
01:16:45 I'm sorry.
01:16:46 I'm sorry.
01:16:47 I'm sorry.
01:16:48 I'm sorry.
01:16:49 I'm sorry.
01:16:50 I'm sorry.
01:16:51 I'm sorry.
01:16:52 I'm sorry.
01:16:53 I'm sorry.
01:16:54 I'm sorry.
01:16:55 I'm sorry.
01:16:56 I'm sorry.
01:16:57 I'm sorry.
01:16:58 I'm sorry.
01:16:59 I'm sorry.
01:17:00 I'm sorry.
01:17:01 Catherine Palmer, could you come up to 514 right away?
01:17:04 Hollywood Police, emergency.
01:17:12 This is Catherine Palmer again.
01:17:14 You've got to send a patrol car to Union Station.
01:17:16 A woman will try to claim something there.
01:17:19 The Union Pacific, city of Los Angeles, train 103 is now arriving.
01:17:28 The Los Angeles, Union Pacific, train number 1 is now arriving.
01:17:55 Hello.
01:17:56 Hello.
01:17:57 You by yourself?
01:17:58 Not anymore, if I can help it.
01:18:00 How'd you like to go--
01:18:01 How'd you like to do a lady a big favor and earn $5?
01:18:04 What kind of a favor?
01:18:06 My ex-boyfriend's over there waiting for me to claim my bag.
01:18:09 If you get it for me, I can avoid him.
01:18:12 If you like, I'll let you spend the $5 on me.
01:18:16 Well, what are we waiting for?
01:18:19 I'm going to get my bag.
01:18:21 I'm going to get my bag.
01:18:23 What are we waiting for?
01:18:26 [music playing]
01:18:30 [music playing]
01:18:34 [music playing]
01:18:38 [music playing]
01:18:42 [music playing]
01:18:46 [music playing]
01:18:49 [music playing]
01:19:10 [music playing]
01:19:13 Here I am.
01:19:19 I'll, uh, take my fin now, lady.
01:19:21 What?
01:19:22 My $5.
01:19:23 All right.
01:19:24 [music playing]
01:19:39 [music playing]
01:19:42 Ooh.
01:19:53 Ooh.
01:19:56 How long have I been out?
01:19:57 You took quite a jolt.
01:19:58 Kathy, did you send the police down to the Union Station?
01:20:05 I tried to.
01:20:06 They wouldn't go.
01:20:07 They said they couldn't hold anyone
01:20:08 because there was a crime committed.
01:20:10 Oh, is a cracking skulls a crime?
01:20:12 Don't look at me.
01:20:13 I just drive a patrol car.
01:20:15 You want to file charges against somebody?
01:20:19 Can you get an address from a license number
01:20:21 this time of night?
01:20:22 Sure we can.
01:20:23 You got a homicide man at the Hollywood Station?
01:20:26 They didn't kill you.
01:20:27 You'll live.
01:20:28 Come on.
01:20:29 Let's go.
01:20:30 Am I coming?
01:20:31 I seem to recall we had a date for dinner.
01:20:33 We did, but I guess you'll have to settle
01:20:35 for that milk after all, Kathy.
01:20:36 Could I have two minutes before you go?
01:20:39 We can cover it in 10 seconds.
01:20:42 You were right, Kathy.
01:20:44 I don't know your brother from Adam.
01:20:46 I could expand on that, but I think Janie still
01:20:48 has some unfinished business.
01:20:51 Thanks, Doc.
01:20:52 [music playing]
01:21:00 [knocking]
01:21:04 [knocking]
01:21:07 [knocking]
01:21:31 [music playing]
01:21:34 I found the ticket, Danny.
01:21:38 I found it.
01:21:39 It's all clear sailing now.
01:21:41 No way.
01:21:42 Creep back out.
01:21:43 Lock the door, Danny.
01:21:44 Pull the blinds.
01:21:45 [music playing]
01:21:49 [music playing]
01:21:52 What's the matter?
01:22:11 I'm worried.
01:22:12 I don't get it.
01:22:13 The money's in that bag, Danny.
01:22:15 We're leaving for Mexico with it.
01:22:17 Like I say, I don't get it.
01:22:19 Why we?
01:22:20 I need you.
01:22:21 A woman traveling alone would attract too much attention.
01:22:24 And I've got to know about that money, where it came from.
01:22:28 That's better.
01:22:29 Don't ever change, tiger.
01:22:32 I don't think I'd like you with a heart.
01:22:34 Open the bag, Danny.
01:22:39 It's all ours.
01:22:40 Let's have a drink.
01:22:45 In a minute, Danny.
01:22:46 But first of all, I've got to know where the money came from
01:22:49 and if we can use it safely.
01:22:51 There should be 60 grand in there, tiger.
01:22:53 60 grand.
01:22:55 I've got to have a drink.
01:22:57 I'll get the money.
01:22:58 I'll get the money.
01:22:59 I'll get the money.
01:23:00 I'll get the money.
01:23:01 I'll get the money.
01:23:02 I'll get the money.
01:23:03 I'll get the money.
01:23:04 I'll get the money.
01:23:05 I'll get the money.
01:23:06 I'll get the money.
01:23:07 I've got to have a drink.
01:23:08 Wait, Danny.
01:23:09 Somebody threw that money into our car.
01:23:10 Why?
01:23:11 Because you don't go into a guy's office
01:23:14 in a blackmail pay-off suite.
01:23:16 Besides, he didn't know what I looked like.
01:23:19 And I wanted to keep it that way.
01:23:20 But who is it?
01:23:21 Never mind who it is, tiger.
01:23:23 But it's the kind of a thing you come across
01:23:25 only once in a lifetime.
01:23:27 I stumbled onto a racket.
01:23:29 A big man in town.
01:23:31 Three floors of mahogany in the monarch building.
01:23:34 Big insurance agent.
01:23:36 Sells policies on bridges and aqueducts and stuff.
01:23:40 Who ever heard of anything happening to a bridge?
01:23:44 So the policies never went back to New York.
01:23:47 They're just pieces of paper my benefactor's
01:23:49 been collecting premiums on for years.
01:23:53 I cut me a slice of last year's premiums.
01:23:56 That's it.
01:23:58 Danny.
01:24:00 Then the money isn't marked.
01:24:02 We can spend it.
01:24:03 You said it, tiger.
01:24:06 Now, let's have that drink.
01:24:10 Wait, Danny.
01:24:11 We'll make it a toast.
01:24:13 I'll get some glasses.
01:24:14 They're right there on the sink.
01:24:35 Mr. Crime, it pays.
01:24:37 And pays.
01:24:40 [laughing]
01:24:43 [gasps]
01:25:06 Okay.
01:25:09 [sighs]
01:25:12 [music playing]
01:25:15 [music playing]
01:25:19 [music playing]
01:25:23 [music playing]
01:25:26 [music playing]
01:25:52 [music playing]
01:26:20 Found this in his pocket.
01:26:21 Take a sniff.
01:26:23 The whiskey bottle wasn't spiked.
01:26:25 He took it like a good boy.
01:26:26 Right in his glass.
01:26:28 Go out and call the lab crew in the meat wagon.
01:26:30 Tell them it's a suicide.
01:26:32 It's no suicide.
01:26:34 Your friend, Mrs. Palmer, arranged this little tableau.
01:26:37 Any idea why?
01:26:39 Yeah.
01:26:40 He helped her kill her husband.
01:26:42 If you've got something to tell me, let's have it.
01:26:45 I think you'll find her husband at the bottom of the lake
01:26:47 at Westlake Park.
01:26:49 [laughs]
01:26:50 You don't say.
01:26:51 You know, I'm only a cop.
01:26:53 When I checked the lake, I found they went there
01:26:55 the night he disappeared.
01:26:56 And they also left it together.
01:26:58 Oh, now look.
01:26:59 When they left the boat, Palmer was in a great big hurry.
01:27:02 He left the pain to his wife and dashed up the steps.
01:27:04 And now I think I know why.
01:27:07 Palmer never got off that boat.
01:27:09 This guy did.
01:27:10 Then he drove Palmer's car to San Diego.
01:27:13 I could point out a dozen things wrong with that,
01:27:15 but why bother?
01:27:16 If you're right, the body will come up in a day or two.
01:27:19 Oh, no.
01:27:20 I'm afraid you'll have to drag the lake.
01:27:22 Jane's a pretty smart girl.
01:27:24 If she put him there, she put him there to stay.
01:27:28 Anyone besides you ever see them together?
01:27:31 Look, what's the trouble?
01:27:32 Don't you want to lick this thing?
01:27:34 Do you know what it would cost the department
01:27:36 to close that lake and drag it?
01:27:38 We'd have to get an OK from the police commission
01:27:40 and the Bureau of Budget and Efficiency.
01:27:42 And if the lake management raised enough of a hassle,
01:27:44 we might even have to go to the city council.
01:27:47 Hey, Chief, come here a minute.
01:27:49 What's the idea? I haven't done anything.
01:27:51 All right, all right.
01:27:52 She starts up the walk and notices the door is open.
01:27:55 Then she sees our car and decides to go away.
01:27:57 I was just trying to ask her a polite question.
01:27:59 How wide he says.
01:28:00 How does he act when he's being crude?
01:28:02 Are you a friend of Fuller's?
01:28:03 Friend of whose?
01:28:05 Come on inside.
01:28:07 What happened?
01:28:14 Did you ever see this before?
01:28:18 Was it worth that?
01:28:20 You know anyone who would want to kill him?
01:28:23 He killed himself.
01:28:27 God have mercy on him.
01:28:29 What makes you think he did it himself?
01:28:31 You got any reason?
01:28:33 He had a big deal on.
01:28:36 50 or 60 grand, he said.
01:28:39 But something went wrong.
01:28:42 I was with him when he got that stuff.
01:28:44 He didn't think I knew him.
01:28:47 I knew what he was getting, but I did.
01:28:50 I want to go home.
01:28:51 Parker, take her home, get her name,
01:28:53 and find out where Fuller got that poison.
01:28:55 Right.
01:28:57 And as for you, brother, I'm going to let you off
01:29:03 with a little friendly advice.
01:29:05 Don't ever try to involve the department
01:29:07 in your private quarrels.
01:29:08 If you get any facts, bring them around.
01:29:10 But until you do, Palmer's a missing person
01:29:12 and this guy killed himself.
01:29:13 Now get going.
01:29:15 Palmer's a corpse.
01:29:17 How much would it cost me to have the lake dragged
01:29:19 and prove it to you?
01:29:21 What did the lady do to you, Blake,
01:29:25 besides sap you down?
01:29:27 It must have been something big.
01:29:30 Sure, son, you can drag the lake.
01:29:35 The guy did it about four years ago,
01:29:37 looking for his wife.
01:29:38 When he got through, it cost him 4,000 bucks,
01:29:40 the park officials were suing him,
01:29:42 and his wife turned up in Modesta
01:29:43 with a truck driver.

01:31:06 No, no, thanks very much.
01:31:08 That's a bad place to get stuck.
01:31:10 Blowout, huh?
01:31:11 Yes.
01:31:12 [whistles]
01:31:14 This small fortune belong to you, ma'am?
01:31:16 Yes, it must have dropped from my bag.

01:32:55 After dinner, we'll go to the front lawn for the highlight game.
01:32:58 I'm sorry, Carlos.
01:33:00 No.
01:33:02 I'm rather tired.
01:33:03 Of course.
01:33:05 Mañana.
01:33:06 Mañana.

01:34:15 Well, nice place you have here, Mrs. Palmer.
01:34:18 Oh, excuse me.
01:34:19 It's Miss Petrie now, isn't it?
01:34:21 That happens to be my maiden name.
01:34:23 I filed suit for divorce.
01:34:25 That's a nice touch.
01:34:27 But widows don't need divorces, do they?
01:34:30 I wasn't aware that I was a widow.
01:34:33 Doesn't matter.
01:34:35 I really came here to talk about money.
01:34:39 I'd like, say, half of what you brought down with you.
01:34:43 That would be about $200, mister.
01:34:47 What was your name?
01:34:49 It was Blake when you knew me.
01:34:51 You brought down about 60 grand,
01:34:53 according to Danny's girlfriend.
01:34:55 I don't know any Danny and...
01:34:58 I haven't got any money.
01:35:01 [music]
01:35:05 I think you'd better leave.
01:35:09 I swear I'll scream to wake the dead
01:35:11 if you don't get out of here.
01:35:12 Oh, it's too bad you can't wake the dead, Jane.
01:35:14 It might save you.
01:35:16 You see, I found your husband's body.
01:35:22 I told the Los Angeles police where I am.
01:35:25 If there was any news of Alan,
01:35:27 I would have been notified.
01:35:29 Not about this, you wouldn't.
01:35:31 You see, I let him drop back in.
01:35:35 Drop back?
01:35:37 Where?
01:35:38 Where you put him.
01:35:39 The lake.
01:35:43 Looking for something?
01:35:46 My lipstick.
01:35:47 Colt or Smith and Wesson?
01:35:51 Now...
01:35:54 What's this about lakes?
01:35:56 Just one lake.
01:35:58 And if we can't make a deal,
01:35:59 I'm going back and drag him up again.
01:36:04 How much do you want?
01:36:05 I told you, half.
01:36:09 It's in the hotel safe.
01:36:10 I'd have to go get it.
01:36:11 Go ahead.
01:36:15 Aren't you afraid I might not come back?
01:36:17 You'll come back.
01:36:19 How do I know you won't take it all?
01:36:21 Well, that would make me a cad, Jane.
01:36:22 I couldn't do that.
01:36:24 Get the money.
01:36:25 I'll be satisfied with half.
01:36:53 It's a nice cool look, isn't it, Jane?
01:36:57 It tempts me.
01:37:00 But this will cover it.
01:37:02 What do you mean by that?
01:37:03 I'm giving you a strict accounting of your funds, Mrs. Palmer.
01:37:07 I had to know for sure if your husband
01:37:08 was really in that lake.
01:37:10 This is the price for having the lake dragged.
01:37:12 What do you mean?
01:37:13 What are you trying to say?
01:37:14 I'm trying to tell you, Jane,
01:37:15 you're all washed up.
01:37:17 You can't take my money and...
01:37:20 You're not...
01:37:21 The law?
01:37:22 No.
01:37:24 No, just someone who couldn't let you
01:37:25 get away with it, Jane.
01:37:27 A killjoy.
01:37:31 Here it is.
01:37:32 You want it, don't you?
01:37:37 It's yours.
01:37:38 All you have to do is take it.
01:37:39 You can't see it, Mrs. Palmer,
01:37:40 but I'm riding a big white horse.
01:37:42 This is a vendetta.
01:37:44 But it's over now.
01:37:46 Please page Teniente Rivera.
01:37:48 He's in the lobby.
01:37:50 Rivera, I'm in her apartment.
01:37:52 She has the money here, all of it.
01:37:54 Yes.
01:37:55 Right away.
01:37:57 You'll have to forgive me, Jane,
01:37:58 but I made formal charges
01:37:59 that you stole that money from me.
01:38:01 Now, you can sue me later for false arrest,
01:38:03 but I had to figure some way
01:38:04 of keeping you in town
01:38:05 till the L.A. police get here.
01:38:06 Why, Mr. Blake?
01:38:07 Tell me why!
01:38:08 Not Blake, Blanchard.
01:38:10 Does it mean anything to you?
01:38:11 I...
01:38:13 I once married a man
01:38:15 named Blanchard.
01:38:16 He asked my brother.
01:38:18 I was overseas when it happened,
01:38:19 but I never really believed
01:38:20 Bob killed himself.
01:38:22 You killed him.
01:38:23 I swear I didn't kill him.
01:38:24 He found out I didn't love him
01:38:25 and he killed himself.
01:38:26 I swear it.
01:38:27 I swear I didn't kill him.
01:38:28 There are many ways
01:38:29 of killing a man, Jane.
01:38:30 Now that I know you,
01:38:32 I can believe Bob probably
01:38:33 did kill himself.
01:38:35 But then there's Alan Palmer
01:38:37 and your friend Danny.
01:38:39 You're all through killing now, Jane.
01:38:42 Wait, he's lying!
01:38:48 The money is mine!
01:38:49 Please, señorita.
01:38:50 We wish no trouble.
01:38:51 You come with us, eh?
01:38:52 No, I tell you he's lying!
01:38:54 Jane!
01:38:56 [screaming]
01:38:58 Someone call a doctor!
01:39:07 I'll need her doctor.
01:39:08 She's there.
01:39:09 How did it happen?
01:39:10 What are you talking about?
01:39:11 Vamos, muchachos.
01:39:16 [chatter]
01:39:19 Well, it was a short honeymoon, Kathy.
01:39:46 We're going home now.
01:39:48 Jane.
01:39:51 Yeah?
