00:00The End
01:00We're coming to the house now. Close her down.
01:30This is our last bomb. We mustn't miss.
02:01Dear Fillman, wealthy railroad president,
02:07you're rescued today by Captain America from the Scallop's agents
02:10who bombed a farmhouse where he was being held prisoner.
02:13Suffering from a brain injury, he was rushed to a hospital,
02:16the name of which the District Attorney refuses to divulge,
02:19saying he will be kept a secret to protect Hillman.
02:23If Hillman does regain consciousness,
02:25he will tell them that you are the Scallop.
02:28He must be killed before he can talk.
02:30How? Only the DA and Captain America know where he is.
02:34It is obvious that the District Attorney and Captain America are the same man.
02:38When Graham phoned from the radio shop,
02:41he said that the District Attorney was on his way to the Watson farm.
02:44Yet Captain America was the one who reached there.
02:47That doesn't look like Hillman for us.
02:50Gail Richards will.
02:52How is he?
02:54In bad shape.
02:56I wired him for a famous brain surgeon.
02:58He was just starting off on a hunting trip when his office caught him.
03:01He's driving back and should be here by 5 o'clock.
03:04Here's their reply.
03:08He says he's coming here to the office.
03:10Yes. I couldn't take a chance to let anyone know which hospital Hillman is in.
03:14When the doctor arrives, I'll drive him there.
03:16In the meantime, you go to the hospital, stay right beside Hillman.
03:19In the event that he regains consciousness,
03:21try and get a statement, even for a moment. Understand?
03:23Right.
03:31Keep quiet and drive where I tell you.
03:35Where to?
03:36The Drummond Museum.
03:46It's good to see you, Miss Richards.
03:48Be seated.
03:49Dr. Mallard, why was I brought here?
03:54Perhaps this will explain.
03:59It explains a lot.
04:01You're the scarab.
04:03Yes.
04:04It's your misfortune that I had to let you know.
04:07But I need some information.
04:10Sit down.
04:16Tell me, where are they keeping Hillman?
04:20If I knew, I wouldn't tell you.
04:22Fortunately, only the district attorney knows.
04:24I had thought you would say that.
04:26But I have a means of making you tell me the truth.
04:41This contains an extract grew from a jungle flower.
04:45Which is a very efficient truth serum.
04:48Under its influence,
04:50you will tell me anything I want to know.
04:53Unfortunately for you,
04:55the effects never wear off.
04:58And you will spend the rest of your life
05:00in insane asylum.
05:02A hopeless being.
05:06And now, Miss Richards.
05:12Wait.
05:15Go ahead, Miss Richards.
05:17And I warn you to tell the truth.
05:19I don't know which hospital Mr. Hillman is in.
05:22The district attorney has hired for a brain surgeon.
05:24We're driving here in his car.
05:26He will arrive at the office at five o'clock.
05:28From there, he will be taken to the hospital.
05:31What is the surgeon's name?
05:35Dr. Rodman Barak.
05:38Spell it.
05:43R-O-D-L-A-M.
05:45B-A-R-A-C-E.
05:48B-A-R-A-C-E.
05:54Contact agent 33.
05:56Tell him to use his name.
05:58Let him go to the district attorney's office.
06:04Mr. Gardner?
06:05I'm Dr. Rodman Barak.
06:07How do you do, doctor?
06:08Would you have a chair?
06:11You arrived earlier than I expected.
06:13I know.
06:14I received your wire about Hillman,
06:16and after driving all the way, I managed to charter a plane.
06:18That was very thoughtful of you.
06:20In a case like this, time is important.
06:22Has Hillman regained consciousness?
06:24Sorry, no.
06:25That's alarming.
06:26I'll have to make an examination at once.
06:28Which hospital is he in?
06:30The Crestview, on Woodlawn Avenue.
06:32My associate's waiting for my call.
06:34May I use your phone?
06:36Certainly.
06:38I'll dial it for you.
06:40What's the number?
06:42Oh, good.
06:432643.
07:00Hello?
07:01Get my surgical kit.
07:02Meet me at the Crestview Hospital on Woodlawn Avenue.
07:04Understand?
07:05Got it.
07:06I'll take care of everything.
07:07The men are waiting downstairs.
07:09One will meet you in the lobby of the hospital in case of trouble.
07:11The other will wait in the getaway car.
07:13I'll be here when you get back.
07:15Very well.
07:16I'll start at once.
07:19Sorry I can't go with you, doctor, but I have some work to do.
07:21Please phone in your report as soon as possible.
07:23Of course, Mr. Gardner.
07:34What's that?
07:35That man's an imposter.
07:37Only Gail and I knew I'm expecting a brain surgeon.
07:39And the man I wired for is Dr. George Thomas.
07:42Then Gail is in trouble.
07:43Exactly.
07:44I gave him a chance to find her.
07:45I gave him the name of the wrong hospital.
07:47I want you to phone the commissioner.
07:49Ask him to send a raiding party to the Crestview Hospital.
07:52And pick up Dr. Rodman Barrett and whoever's with him.
07:55Meanwhile, I'm going to trace that phone call.
08:02This is the district attorney.
08:04I want the address of Oak 2643.
08:12Who's there?
08:13The district attorney.
08:14Open up.
08:43Where's Miss Richards?
08:44How would I know?
08:46You know, all right.
08:48And about that phony surgeon, Rodman Barrett, too.
08:50Phony?
08:51Well, the girl told us that.
08:53She gave you the wrong name.
08:56She made this one up to warn me.
09:01And at the same time to tell me that Mallory is a scaramouche.
09:04She's a scaramouche.
09:05She's a scaramouche.
09:06She's a scaramouche.
09:07She's a scaramouche.
09:08She's a scaramouche.
09:09She's a scaramouche.
09:10She's a scaramouche.
09:11She's a scaramouche.
09:12Mallory is a scaramouche.
09:13Mallory?
09:14You're crazy.
09:16Hey, how could she do that?
09:18Rodman Barrett, Miss Mallory is a scaramouche, spelled backward.
09:22See?
09:23S-C-A-R-A-B.
09:25M-A-L-D-O-R.
09:27Mallory is a scaramouche.
09:29If Mallory finds out she double-crossed him, he'll kill her.
09:32She'll have a horrible death.
09:33Well, you know what he'll...
09:34Shut up!
09:35He won't find it out in time.
09:40Yes?
09:41The whole thing was a trap.
09:42The cops were waiting at the hospital.
09:44Got the others.
09:45I just managed to escape.
09:46Hold the car there for a fast getaway.
09:48We'll be out as soon as we dispose of the girl.
10:01So you lied to me.
10:03No one can do that and live.
10:06Who is that?
10:08This looks a thousand years old.
10:10But it isn't.
10:12A week ago, he was a living, breathing man.
10:15But he disobeyed my orders.
10:19He was placed in this case.
10:21In a short time, he became the withered mummy that you see before you.
10:24And you'll be just like that in a few minutes.
10:28Gruber.
10:35Gruber.
10:56I'll get our variables together while you connect the mummifying gas.
11:00I'm afraid the district attorney will hardly recognize Miss Richards
11:03when he finds her a withered mummy.
11:29Leaving, Mr. Scarab?
11:33You arrived sooner than I expected, Mr. District Attorney.
11:38Where's Gail Richards?
11:40Well, you'll never find her unless...
11:43Unless you're willing to exchange her life for my freedom.
11:47The Scarab will have the pleasure of turning on the gas.
11:53Better make a deal, Captain America.
11:56In a few minutes, we'll be too late to save Miss Richards.
11:59Then she's in the building.
12:01Tell me where she is.
12:03I don't know where she is.
12:33I don't know where she is.
13:03Oh!
13:33Oh!
14:04Thanks to Captain America,
14:06whom we now know to be our fighting district attorney,
14:09the Scarab and his murderous gang
14:11pay the supreme penalty in the electric chair
14:14at the stroke of midnight tonight.
14:16To review the Scarab's crimes...
14:18No need to review them now.
14:21These convictions definitely prove that crime doesn't pay.
14:25I want to say that the people of this city owe a great deal to you,
14:28Mr. District Attorney, er, Captain America.
14:31But we owe a great deal more to Gail.
14:33Her cleverness tipped me off to the Scarab's identity.
14:36But Captain America arrived in time to capture the Scarab.
14:43It's midnight.
14:45The toll of doom for the Scarab.
