01:45You know what time it is, Mr. Wiley?
01:48Yes, it's five o'clock in the morning.
01:50Did you wake me up to tell me what time it is?
01:52No, Mr. Wiley.
01:54I called to tell you your time is up.
01:57You're not fit to live.
01:59You'll never live to be mayor.
02:01You'll never live to see tomorrow.
02:03Come on, wait a minute. Who is this?
02:07Hello.
02:16Hello.
02:18Harold Dispatch?
02:20Give me the city editor.
02:24I got a story for you, and get it straight.
02:28Walker Wiley will never live to be mayor.
02:32He won't live to see tomorrow.
02:38I'm sorry, Mr. Wiley.
02:40He won't live to see tomorrow.
02:45A phone call in the night, a threat to kill,
02:48and then a public announcement that the killing will take place.
02:52Is this man just a publicity seeker,
02:55or will he be driven to kill?
02:57Will he succumb to the impots?
03:00That's the name of our story, the impots.
03:03Our principal players are Mr. Robert Lansing,
03:08Miss Whitney Blake,
03:10Mr. Lance Fuller,
03:12Mr. Elisha Cook,
03:14Mr. Steve Brody,
03:16and Mr. Conrad Nagle.
03:19For very long,
03:21one of these girls unwittingly
03:24will be carrying a deadly bomb through the crowded city.
03:28As sure as my name is Boris Karloff,
03:32one man's impots
03:34will paralyze a great metropolis for six terrifying hours.
03:40I do hope you're not addicted to biting your nails,
03:44because this, I'm quite sure you will agree,
03:47is a thriller.
04:05The End
04:26We want to see Mr. Wiley, Lieutenant Rohn,
04:28Sergeant Hanigan, Police Special Squad.
04:30Mr. Wiley said when you came, you should go right in.
04:34What are you doing, Mr. Wiley?
04:36Asking for it?
04:39Who are you?
04:40That's just what I mean.
04:41You have a threat like this,
04:42and then you have your secretary send somebody in here
04:44without any verification.
04:45If I happened to be the guy who made that threat, Mr. Wiley,
04:48you'd be dead by now.
04:50You're Lieutenant Rohn.
04:52Fortunately for you, this is Sergeant Hanigan.
04:56How are you, Sergeant?
04:58I'm fine.
05:01How are you, Sergeant?
05:03Lieutenant, Chief Pepper told me he was sending you over,
05:07so I told the girl outside just to...
05:09Look, Mr. Wiley, I don't want to sound like cops and robbers,
05:11but you've got to take a threat like this more seriously.
05:15You can go, Carol, and we'll finish this later.
05:17Look, Lieutenant,
05:19this man didn't just call me.
05:22He phoned every radio station and newspaper in town,
05:24gave them the same song and dance.
05:26I can't take a man like that seriously.
05:27You think he's a crank, a publicity seeker?
05:29Well, doesn't it look that way?
05:32Killers don't advertise in advance.
05:34Oh, no. That's theory, Mr. Wiley.
05:37Sometimes they do.
05:38Hanigan here can tell you about sweet old Mrs. Krause.
05:41Yeah.
05:43She wrote letters to her relatives
05:44telling them they were going to be poisoned.
05:46What happened?
05:47They got poisoned.
05:50Oh.
05:52All right, boys, sit down.
05:55How do we begin?
05:56How do you suspect anybody?
05:58I haven't got the faintest idea.
06:00Who'd want to kill me?
06:02Well, you've come a long way up, Mr. Wiley.
06:04Isn't there somebody whose toes you might have stepped on,
06:07somebody who might nourish a grudge?
06:09Well, not enough to kill me, no.
06:11Absolutely no. I can't think of anyone.
06:15All right, no suspects.
06:17And you just cooperate with us.
06:19We'll have two of my men at your home,
06:21one in your office, and one with you personally.
06:23And I mean all the time, 24 hours a day.
06:26We'll also keep a guard on the building.
06:28Hmm.
06:29Well, that's going to be a little tough, Lieutenant.
06:31I've got, gee, a hundred appointments today,
06:34some in the city, some way outside.
06:36All right, just keep them,
06:37as long as you've got one of my men with you.
06:39A moving target is harder to hit.
06:41All right.
06:42Well, the sooner I get moving, the better.
06:44Oh.
06:45Say, there'll be one time today I'll be a sitting duck.
06:48What's that?
06:49I'm on TV tonight, the Paul Willis visit.
06:53Can you cancel?
06:54And prove to everybody how scared I am?
06:56Not on your life.
06:58Besides, this is too important to my campaign, Lieutenant.
07:01Willis has a big audience.
07:03All right, the Paul Willis show, that's 11 o'clock.
07:06Where's it going to be, your home?
07:07No, no, right here in the office.
07:11All right, I'll have the place covered starting right now.
07:13Good.
07:14Now, your job is to go on about your business, Mr. Wiley.
07:17And ours is to try to keep you alive.
07:25And as of 4 o'clock this afternoon,
07:26the leading story is still the anonymous threat
07:28against the life of Walker Wiley,
07:30commissioner of Water and Power,
07:31prominent businessman and candidate
07:33for the mayorality of our city.
07:35While it is still possible that the whole thing
07:37may be an elaborate hoax, police are taking no chances.
07:40Although Mr. Wiley is insisting
07:42on carrying out his regular schedule,
07:44full protection has been provided
07:45by the police special squad under Lieutenant Brian Rome.
07:48Mr. Wiley will go through with his scheduled TV appearance
07:51tonight at 11 on the Paul Willis program.
07:54According to Police Chief Pepper,
07:55complete precautions have been enforced
07:56since early this morning.
07:58It is safe to say that no unauthorized person
08:00will have any chance of getting near Wiley
08:02for the duration of his television broadcast.
08:11What a hassle.
08:13I hope his honor doesn't make a habit of this TV bit.
08:24Mr. Hannigan, you're in the police.
08:27Is someone really trying to kill Mr. Wiley?
08:29I don't know, honey.
08:31Where there's a threat, there's always a risk.
08:49They told me to change the light bulbs
08:51in Mr. Wiley's office for the TV program.
09:22Hmm.
09:24What are you doing there?
09:52They told me to change the light bulbs.
09:58What did you just take out of that drawer?
10:01I've never seen you before.
10:06You don't belong here.
10:08Hannigan! Hannigan!
10:22Stop that.
10:39Help Hannigan.

11:40Emergency.
11:41Get me the building superintendent's office.
11:42You must get something.
11:43Never mind.
11:44What is it?
11:45Lieutenant thank god you're here.
11:46What happened?
11:47I caught a man putting a package this big...
11:49... in Mr Wiley's desk when he saw me.
11:50He grabbed it back, and ran.
12:02You can't mistake him.
12:04Those maintenance coveralls are white.
12:07Excuse me.
12:09What about the man himself? Any outstanding feature?
12:28He limps.
12:29All right, take her down to the police, special, come on, let's go.
13:25Get out of the way.
13:26All right, everybody back off the street, come on.
13:32I want that package you tried to put in Wiley's office.
13:35It's a bomb, isn't it?
13:38Where is it, what did you do with it?
13:41Girls, a bag, elevator.
13:46Put it in some girl's bag in the elevator?
13:48When's it set for, what time?
13:51Tonight?
13:53Eleven.
13:54The girl, who was she?
13:57What did she look like?
14:21Come on, hold it, will you?
14:33All right, all I can tell you is that this bomb meant for Wiley was slipped into some girl's bag in the elevator this afternoon.
14:40According to the operator, there were 12 or 13 girls in that elevator.
14:43Out of all of the women who work here or were visiting this building this afternoon, we have to find the right one.
14:48As far as we know, the bomb is set for 11 o'clock.
14:50That means we have five hours to find the girl, so let me go do it, will you?
15:00Did you hear from the hospital about Hannigan?
15:02Yeah, they said his eyes would be all right.
15:04Lieutenant, I have station KQAY on the phone.
15:06Yeah?
15:08Yeah, hello, who is this?
15:11Mr. Stanley, this is Lieutenant Rome, now grab a pencil and take this down.
15:15A bomb, three or four inches square, was slipped into the purse of a woman in an elevator in the Heinz building at five o'clock today.
15:21Yeah, that's right, a bomb.
15:23All women who left the building at that time should examine their pocketbooks.
15:26If such a package is found, telephone the police immediately.
15:28Put the purse out in the yard and keep everybody away from it until the police arrive.
15:32Have you got that?
15:34All right, good, and I want it repeated every half hour.
15:37There's some girl walking around this time with a bomb.
15:40You can save her life.
15:43George, what about that list of telephone numbers of the business offices?
15:45Just about ready.
15:47All right, let's take what we got and get back to headquarters.
15:49There'll be a battery of men working telephones as soon as we can get there.
15:51Right.
15:53Oh, Lieutenant.
15:55That right what I just heard?
15:57A man with a bomb got chased out of here, slipped the bomb in some girl's purse, then got himself killed by a truck, that right?
16:01That's right, Brundage, you're off, Mr. Wiley, you go on back.
16:04According to his driver's license, the man's name was Harry Elser.
16:08You ever hear of him?
16:10Elser, Elser, that doesn't mean a thing.
16:12Well, that certainly takes me off the hook, Lieutenant.
16:15Fine, fine.
16:17Oh, yeah, that's just peachy.
16:19Oh, I'm not forgetting about the girl, Lieutenant.
16:21But you fellas will find her in plenty of time, I'm sure of that.
16:24Yeah, thank you for the faith, Mr. Wiley.
16:35Come on, knock it off.
16:37Now, Bernie here has a list of all of the business offices in the Heinz building.
16:40You get some guy in each office who can give you a list of all of the girls who work there.
16:44Find out whether their girls leave at 5 or 5.30.
16:46The girls who leave at 5.30, you can skip.
16:48Now, the girls who leave at 5, you start contacting them.
16:50If there are no phones, get their names and addresses to Bernie.
16:53He'll relay them to men in the squad cars.
16:55Also, find out what women visitors left the offices at about 5 o'clock.
16:58The woman with the bomb in her purse may be somebody who doesn't even work in the building, but was just visiting.
17:02All right, make another phone call.
17:11Lieutenant?
17:13Yeah.
17:15What did the bomb experts tell you?
17:17Well, they say with the type of bomb you described, it didn't...
17:19strong enough to knock over a building or anything, but it could kill maybe 12 or 15 people in a group.
17:24Could it contain a timing device?
17:26No, not a clock anyway. It's too small for that.
17:29But it could contain a chemical timing device.
17:32They say the USS during the war had an incendiary pencil.
17:35It had a timing device in it that was accurate up to a half an hour.
17:38What time is this thing supposed to go?
17:4211 o'clock.
17:43I figure maybe a half hour before or a little later.
17:48Oh, with this type of bomb, I say if it gets shaken up at all, it could go at any time.
17:56That's good to know.
17:58Hey, George.
18:00George, we're not going to do any good here. Let's drive out to Elsa's and see what we can find out, all right?
18:03All right.
18:04Bernie, if anybody wants me, get me in the car.
18:09So if you're on that elevator at that time, just about 5 o'clock, this is what you must do.
18:15Do not touch your handbag.
18:17Telephone the police immediately at City 1-2000.
18:20Repeat, City 1-2000.
18:26I seem to be on the job.
18:29Seems like I should have been this afternoon.
18:32You're blaming yourself worse than usual on this one. How come?
18:35I had one of my lousy hunches.
18:38Went over to Wiley's house.
18:40I thought maybe the bomber might pull the switch and show up there.
18:44If it hadn't been for that, I would have been at Wiley's office and some girl wouldn't be walking around with a loaded bag.
18:50Where do you think we'll find it, Elsa's?
18:54We'll get some specific information on what kind of a bomb it was.
18:57Get the whole town in an uproar, we might find out it's a false alarm.
19:00Possible.
19:01Could be he's an amateur and he bungled it so the thing won't even go off.
19:04Just don't bet on it.
19:06Those visitors are what bug me. We can miss one of them easy.
19:09Yeah?
19:10All right, so she doesn't turn on her radio, she doesn't turn on her TV.
19:15She doesn't look in her purse.
19:17So we can't help her.
19:20Just like that.
19:22Just like that, George.
19:24Some innocent girl blown to pieces and I had to have one of my lousy hunches.
19:27You take these things too personal, Brian.
19:29You know, I've noticed lately you take it on yourself for every case we work on.
19:32What's with you?
19:33Maybe I just don't live right.
19:35You sure don't.
19:36It's been six years since Amy passed away.
19:38I'll bet you haven't been out with a woman in that whole time.
19:41Come off it.
19:42All right, Amy was the greatest.
19:44But life goes on, a guy's got to keep punching.
19:47Look at Jenny and me.
19:48When we lost a little girl, I thought the whole world had been kicked right out from underneath me.
19:52We had to pick up the pieces and keep going on.
19:57Now, we got the new little one and everything's great again.
20:06That's so funny.
20:07Wouldn't it be great if you found this girl with a bomb in her purse
20:10and she turned out to be a big, beautiful, luscious thing?
20:13And, well, the two of you decided to...
20:17Well, I don't know.
20:19Hey, would that be something, huh?
20:20George, my boy.
20:23You ought to write for TV, you know.
20:45What, neighbors know anything?
20:46Nothing much.
20:47The lady says he lived alone, kept pretty much to himself.
20:50What did he work at?
20:51Nothing lately.
20:52She said he was some kind of an engineer with a water and power company.
20:55Got fired about two years ago.
20:56Yeah, that's it.
20:57That's his motive.
20:58Wiley, water and power commissioner.
21:00Probably blamed him for losing his job.
21:04All right, I'll look over the house.
21:05You check the garage.
21:06All right.
21:16All right.
21:46All right.
21:47All right.
22:17You see George's wife?
22:21Yeah, I...
22:25Stood by for a few minutes.
22:29What can you say?
22:31Yeah.
22:33About?
22:36She's with her mother now.
22:39Why would a guy booby trap his garage?
22:41I don't know.
22:42I don't know.
22:43I don't know.
22:47With a twisted mind like that,
22:48maybe he was set to hold up there if we came for him.
22:53All right, what's the score?
22:56We're down to 16.
22:58Not a clue, though.
23:08Hi, Lieutenant.
23:09Nary a balm, nary a balm.
23:11So, here's five names you can cross right off your list.
23:15I wish you could have seen some of the things
23:16I took out of those women's handbags.
23:17You wouldn't believe it.
23:21Yeah, that's perfume.
23:22Lieutenant, I think you better write me a note
23:23so my wife won't clobber me.
23:26You know, sometimes, son, you just kill me, you know that?
23:32Hey, what's the matter with him?
23:33I never saw him act that way before.
23:35George Dumont's dead.
23:37Blown up.
23:38You know how close they were?
23:42All right, what's with this first one, Kimball?
23:45She's a commercial artist.
23:47An agency in the building handles her stuff.
23:49Never mind the biography.
23:50Why can't you reach her?
23:51Sorry.
23:53No answer from her phone.
23:54No one home when I sent a car.
23:56But I got some more stuff from the agency.
23:59Ten to one, she'd be dining out with her boyfriend.
24:01That's a Robert Larrymore of Northern Lithograph.
24:04His favorite restaurants are Ma's Zaren's and Angelo's
24:07and the Seventh Heaven if he's in a dancing mood.
24:10Okay, okay.
24:11That's nice work.
24:13Now what about Delacroix's?
24:16She was a name on an appointment pad
24:18in Miss Rogers' office for 4.30 this afternoon.
24:21The Heinz building super phoned it in.
24:24Miss Rogers is a young architect.
24:26No secretary.
24:28And he can't be located.
24:30I'd leave Brundage in charge from here on in.
24:31You and I better do the legwork.
24:32Okay.
24:33Starting when?
24:34Starting right now.
24:35I'll take numbers one and two.
24:36You take three and four.
24:37Keep in constant touch with me on your car radio.
24:39Right.
24:40Bernie.
24:41Yeah?
24:44Listen, the experts checked over this garage.
24:48This stuff is the latest in high explosive.
24:50And don't just be careful.
24:54You be very, very careful.
24:56Okay.
24:58Did you enjoy my company?
25:02Of course, I always do.
25:04Now, Miss Kimball, for the hundredth time,
25:06may I beg for the supreme honor of your hand in marriage?
25:09Bob, you promised not to tonight.
25:11Well, I can't help it.
25:13I'm crazy about you.
25:15Look, Jane, I'm not crazy about you.
25:17I'm not crazy about you.
25:19I'm not crazy about you.
25:21I'm not crazy about you.
25:23I'm not crazy about you.
25:25I'm not crazy about you.
25:27Jane, why don't we take the plunge?
25:29If it's your work you're thinking about...
25:31Excuse me, Mr. Larimore, Miss Jane Kimball?
25:33Yes.
25:34Who are you?
25:36Police.
25:37Lieutenant Rome, Special Squad.
25:38I have to talk to Miss Kimball.
25:40Well, here I am.
25:44What did you want to talk to me about?
25:48Miss Kimball, is it correct
25:49that you were at the Heinz building this afternoon?
25:51You left at five o'clock.
25:52Yes, that's right.
25:54You took elevator number one on the west side.
25:55Is that correct?
25:56Yes, I did.
25:57Oh, what is this, a quiz game?
25:59Tell Miss Kimball what you want
26:00and let's get it over with.
26:01Is that the same bag you were using then?
26:03Oh, yes, as a matter of fact.
26:04Now, wait a minute.
26:06Father, I'm sure Lieutenant Rome knows what he's doing.
26:08I wish you'd explain it.
26:10Explain, but just don't react.
26:12I don't want to cause a panic in the restaurant.
26:15This afternoon, a man was caught
26:16trying to plant a bomb in Walker Wiley's office.
26:18It's a little thing, but it's very powerful.
26:20He got away with elevator number one on the west side.
26:23On the trip down, something,
26:24a fear impulse, maybe he didn't want to be caught with it,
26:27made him slip it into a woman's handbag.
26:29But what are you going to do about it?
26:33Well, I'd just like to borrow your handbag for a little while.
26:36Oh, I don't know about this.
26:38You want to see my badge again?
26:39Bob.
26:41All right, now, I'm going to take that thing
26:42from outside the window.
26:43It'll be safer that way.
26:44I'll go through the side door.
26:46Don't do anything to attract any attention.
26:48I expect you both to cooperate.
26:55He is on the level.
26:57He could be killed at almost any moment.
27:54It's all right.
28:22It wasn't in my bag.
28:24That's a man.
28:27That's a man with guts.
28:30Well, it's his job. He's a cop.
28:34Could have been saving my life, you know.
28:37Maybe, but the odds are about a thousand to one against you having the bomb.
28:41What's the matter with you?
28:43You be nice to him when he comes back.
28:46Here comes Dick Pricey.
28:48That's all yours. You found everything intact.
28:51No bomb.
28:53I know. I was watching.
28:55Oh, it's all right, Lieutenant.
28:56I wasn't disobeying orders. I was very careful not to draw attention to myself.
29:00Nice work, Rome.
29:02Maybe the Lieutenant would like a drink, Bob.
29:05How about it? You want a snort, Rome?
29:08No, thanks.
29:10Miss Kimball, you got on that elevator at the top floor.
29:15Yes. What do you want me to remember?
29:17The number of stops the elevator made and the floors, possibly.
29:20Oh, I doubt it. Three or four stops.
29:24If it was faces you wanted me to remember.
29:27What about faces?
29:29Well, I have almost total recall on faces. I make a living by drawing them, so...
29:32You mean you could draw every face on that elevator?
29:34Well, everyone I happen to look at, yes. I could try.
29:38Try?
29:40Oh, yes.
29:50Three.
30:07There's three.
30:09That's the man. That's Elser.
30:12The man with the bomb?
30:14He was standing right next to me.
30:17I think the poor girl who really has it walking around not knowing.
30:22You'll find her, won't you?
30:24Let's keep that thought.
30:26We have an hour and a half at the outside.
30:28I'll take this if I may. Thank you very much, Miss Kimball. Good night.
30:32Lots of luck, Rome.
30:35Oh, I wonder where the waiter is. I need another drink.
30:39Rome. Strikeout Jane Kimball. Anything for Bernie?
30:42Yeah. There's two more canceled out.
30:45He's looking after number five. We ought to be getting closer, huh?
30:48Yeah, further away. I'm going after the Delacroix's woman now.
31:10I told you I'd be home at nine. It's only a quarter past now.
31:14Why all the questions?
31:16What were you doing between four and six this afternoon?
31:18I was shopping with Gladys Rubin.
31:21I phoned the Rubins at 545. The sister said that Gladys had just left to meet you.
31:25Now, what were you doing between four and six?
31:27All right. If you must know, I was at the bridge club, but I didn't lose any money.
31:31You're lying. I phoned the bridge club, too. You were with Rogers, weren't you?
31:35No.
31:36You spent most of the afternoon with young Rogers, and you weren't discussing architecture.
31:39You're a filthy suspicion.
31:40If you think you can put anything like that over on me, you're out of your head.
31:42I don't have to stay here and listen to this. I'm getting out of here, and I'm not coming back.
31:46You're staying here until I get the truth.
31:52Who's there?
31:54Delacroix's?
32:01Is there a Miss or a Mrs. Delacroix's here, first name Marjorie?
32:06I'm Mrs. Marjorie Delacroix's. What do you want?
32:09Police Special Squad, Lieutenant Rome.
32:11Well, what is it? Something about my car? I haven't done anything wrong.
32:15It's nothing like that, Mrs. Delacroix's. We need your help. It's urgent.
32:19Yes?
32:21Were you visiting the Heinz building this afternoon, and did you leave about 5 o'clock?
32:26What right do you have to question me?
32:29Mrs. Delacroix's.
32:32What right do you have to question me?
32:35Mrs. Delacroix's, this is a matter of people's lives, maybe yours.
32:39Now, when you left the building, did you take elevator number one on the west side?
32:42Of course not. I wasn't in the building or anywhere near the building.
32:46What makes you think she was there, Lieutenant?
32:49Well, her name was on an appointment pad in one of the business offices.
32:52Rogers, an architect, 4 p.m.
32:55Why, that's impossible.
32:58Oh, I think I know what happened. I did make an appointment last week,
33:01but then I called and canceled it.
33:04Well, Mrs. Delacroix's, we're not concerned with the appointment,
33:07just with the elevator trip.
33:12On west elevator number one at 5 o'clock today,
33:14one of the passengers was the man escaping from the police.
33:17To get rid of a bomb he was carrying, he slipped it into an unknown woman's handbag.
33:20So far, we haven't been able to locate that woman.
33:23The bomb is set to explode at 11 o'clock.
33:25A sharp movement could set it off any time.
33:29Hold it!
33:30So you were with him, so you don't care what I do with this?
33:32Don't, don't!
33:33Dolquist.
33:34You were with him.
33:36Dolquist, give me the bag.
33:38You were with him!
33:39Dolquist!
33:55Dolquist!
34:07Your bomb.
34:13It's okay, Mr. Dolquist.
34:16Yeah.
34:18It's fine.
34:25It's okay.
34:56We missed out.
34:59Somehow, some girl didn't get on any of those lists.
35:03So what do we do?
35:05Sit around and wait for a girl to get blown up, I guess.
35:26Now you can call your mother.
35:28And don't say I don't look after you.
35:30You're wonderful.
35:33Hello.
35:34Will you get Pleasant 88866 for me, please?
35:37You know something?
35:39You look beautiful even when you're phoning.
35:44All right, thank you.
35:45I'll try again later.
35:49I'll try again later.
35:51All right, thank you.
35:52I'll try again later.
35:55Mother of mine, I never know where she is.
36:03Did you get a load of those glasses?
36:05If a high wind got under them, he'd fly.
36:08What?
36:09Glasses.
36:11Glasses.
36:13That girl.
36:15Pop, I've just thought of something.
36:16I've got to call Lieutenant Rome at once.
36:18It might be terribly important.
36:23Here, take a look at this.
36:26See if you recognize either one of those two women's faces.
36:28Both of them were on the elevator.
36:30Yeah, that's Mrs. Houser, the last one I got.
36:33The other one's one of my first lot.
36:38Special Squad.
36:41Yeah, sure, he's right here. Just a minute.
36:43Jane Kimball for you, says it's urgent.
36:46Hello, Miss Kimball.
36:47Lieutenant, did you find the girl yet?
36:49No, why?
36:50Well, I just remembered someone else who was in that elevator.
36:53Can you draw her face as well as you did the other two?
36:56Better, she's an easy subject.
36:57Well, then get drawing.
36:59Please, are you still at that restaurant?
37:02All right, I'll be right over.
37:04Come on, Freddy.
37:11That's her, Lieutenant.
37:12Thanks.
37:14Thank you very much, Miss Kimball.
37:19Well, that's the last of Prince Valiant.
37:22I hope.
37:24Most unfunny.
37:43Mother, where in the world have you been?
37:45I've been worried about you.
37:49I was home for a few minutes at 5.30.
37:51There wasn't a sign of you.
37:53My dear, if you wouldn't talk so much, I'd be able to tell you what's happened.
37:56I'm going off with Martha Bailey for the weekend.
38:00Yes, I'll be back on Monday.
38:02Goodbye, dear. Have fun.
38:06There now, let's see.
38:08You have my suitcase, I have my coat and...
38:10Oh, dear.
38:12Hurry, Agnes, we have a train to catch.
38:14You see?
38:15That's typical of Janie.
38:16Such a brilliant child.
38:18But she's so untidy.
38:20She comes in, throws down her drawings and forgets all about them.
38:24I'll just put this in her room.
38:26And then we'll be off.
38:28Agnes, will you please hurry enough?
38:32Don't be impatient, Martha.
38:33Here I am.
38:42Agnes!
39:01Miss Snyder?
39:03Yes, what is it?
39:04Police. Special squad. Lieutenant Rome.
39:06Miss Snyder, your mother told us where you were when you left the Heinz building this afternoon.
39:10Bomb business, is it?
39:11Well, you're wasting your time, Lieutenant.
39:13I heard the broadcast at six and checked in both my bags.
39:16There wasn't any bomb.
39:18And you couldn't take five minutes out to let us know?
39:21Why should I call?
39:23I mean, how should I know?
39:24There was no bomb, period.
39:30Did you say both your bags?
39:34Purse, miscellaneous.
39:36Attaché case, work.
39:41Where's the phone? Booth, gas station, anything?
39:44A couple of booths in the corner of Allen and Wedgwood.
39:59Jane Kimball, after all.
40:01How come?
40:02That's my fault.
40:04Elsa said, girl's bag. Me, I give out handbag.
40:06I'm not smart enough to figure some girl might have another bag besides her purse.
40:10She told me she had a bunch of drawings with her.
40:1820 minutes, 11.
40:27Call our house numbers in there, I'll get the rest.
40:41I'll get it.
41:05Went to the restaurant a few minutes ago.
41:08Then went home with the house.
41:15Look, you figure she's taking this other bag around with her?
41:19She might, how would I know?
41:21Maybe she dropped it off at the house before she went out.
41:26All right, that's where we'll go anyway.
41:27Let's hope she's on her way there, if not, we're sunk.
41:38Now, don't go on being mad at me.
41:42Let's just forget about it, shall we?
41:53There won't be a newscast until 11.
41:56Oh, there might be a special bulletin.
42:02I'll get it.
42:07Who in the world?
42:08I'll get it.
42:15I have to see Miss Kimball right away.
42:17I'll tell her you're here.
42:18Miss Kimball.
42:19Well, Lieutenant, what...
42:20When you left your agent's office this afternoon, did you take any pictures with you?
42:23Yes, the ones he didn't want.
42:24What did you carry them in?
42:25Well, my portfolio, of course.
42:27Oh, but you said handbag.
42:28I'm stupid. Where is it now, the portfolio?
42:30Oh, let me think.
42:32I put it down in here.
42:34I'm sure I did.
42:37Mother must have put it away somewhere.
42:40It'll be in my room.
42:41Now, wait a minute. Don't go in there.
42:44All right, now, you just reach inside and turn on the light.
42:47You show me where it is.
42:54There it is, on the table over there.
42:57All right, now, you two get as far back as you can.
42:59I'm going to take it outside.
43:07All right.
43:38Please be careful.
43:41Honey, you really don't think there's a bomb in that case of yours, do you?
43:50Okay, Brian.
43:52Could you run another blank?
44:00Okay, Miss Kimball, no bomb. I'm sorry to have troubled you.
44:02Okay, Miss Kimball, no bomb. I'm sorry to have troubled you.
44:08Lieutenant?
44:21He's gone.
44:25No, no, I won't say I told you.
44:28I'll apologize, and politely this time.
44:31Cut out the postmortems, Bob, please.
44:34I'm sorry.
44:36Look, I'm awfully tired. Why don't you just say goodnight?
44:40Now, have a heart, darling. Don't I even get a drink for the road?
44:44All right, if you must, one. You mix it yourself.
44:48Okay.
44:51You want one?
44:52No.
45:02Just think of that man, Bob.
45:04He's running around trying to save a girl's life.
45:08She doesn't even know.
45:16It's 11. Now I can hear that newscast.
45:22Despite my jesting, my lady, my love which I bear for you is boundless in this lowly place.
45:28Which I bear for you is boundless in this lowly aching heart.
45:32Bob, you flounder.
45:34I know.
45:35Please, I want to hear the newscast.
45:37Come on now, Jane, let's get serious.
45:39Miss Kimball!
45:41Oh, no, no, not again.
45:51Miss Kimball, I just thought of something. You said that your mother moved that case?
45:53Yes, she did.
45:54Well, the bomb could have dropped out when she moved it. Now, where did you put it when you came home?
45:57Oh, I don't remember.
46:02I think I put it in that chair.
46:05Rome, don't you think we've had about enough of this?
46:08No.
46:10No, I put it, I put it there at that end.
46:13Under that coat.
46:27That's it.
46:30It's eleven, that thing's going to go off.
46:36Come here.
46:38Come on, move, go!
46:56Come on, move!
47:27It's all over, and suddenly I'm shaky.
47:31Yeah.
47:36Well, there's no reason to shake now.
47:38Of course not.
47:43It must have been an awful day for you.
47:45I'll sleep tonight.
47:48Well, that explosion will probably bring a crowd. I guess I'd better get out of there.
47:51Do you have to go?
47:53I mean, can't you stay a while?
47:56Have a cup of coffee?
48:00What happened to your boyfriend?
48:04It's funny how you think you know someone, and suddenly you don't.
48:08I told him to keep running.
48:15I'm sorry.
48:17I'm sorry.
48:19I'm sorry.
48:23Yeah, well, I guess my sergeant could take care of the crowd.
48:29Then you'll stay.
48:34Now suddenly I feel a great need for a cup of coffee.
48:48I'm sorry.
48:49I'm sorry.
48:50I'm sorry.
48:51I'm sorry.
48:52I'm sorry.
48:53I'm sorry.
