4
00:01:00,720 --> 00:01:04,160

arise i demand that you respect my wishes

tribune i have nothing to say for publication
14
00:01:55,200 --> 00:01:57,840
good afternoon yeah but there's
an unusual angle to this story mr
15
00:01:57,840 --> 00:02:01,840
kirkland think of it you and jordan from
the same small town he grew up together as
16
00:02:01,840 --> 00:02:07,840
boys business rivals for years why are
their yarns loaded with human interests
17
00:02:11,920 --> 00:02:13,840
yeah what a human interest
18
00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:22,080
i told you i have nothing to say for
publication i am not interested in
19
00:02:22,080 --> 00:02:26,400
human interest very popular
it increases the circulation
20
00:02:28,800 --> 00:02:35,840
uh look uh mr kirkland if you could just
give me a brief sketch of the personal angle
21
00:02:45,760 --> 00:02:52,240
don't you understand the english language what
i plan is my own private business i don't care
22
00:02:52,240 --> 00:02:57,760
to discuss it with you or anyone else look
good afternoon you found your way in here i
23
00:02:57,760 --> 00:03:03,840
imagine you can find your way out again sure
that's easy same way i came in well thanks
24
00:03:11,760 --> 00:03:17,840
too bad you must have had a complete pressure
25
00:03:22,800 --> 00:03:26,480
did i what else no story no human interest
26
00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:31,840
well that's publication maybe but i'm human
and plenty interested perhaps you might even be
27
00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:37,520
interesting could be only one way to find out for
sure so i've been told but maybe i'm not curious
28
00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:44,080
women are not curious how about you're giving
me an interview someday soon why my job better
29
00:03:44,080 --> 00:03:50,320
do anything don't you ever think of anything
about your job should i maybe no advancement
30
00:03:52,400 --> 00:03:56,400
but i have my uh carefree moment it might
be amusing to see what you do with that
31
00:03:56,400 --> 00:04:01,040
carefree moment might be an
experience you'd never forget too
32
00:04:06,640 --> 00:04:13,840
or by the way just so you don't get
lost i'm at the daily trivia yeah i know
33
00:04:23,200 --> 00:04:27,120
you could be one of the best if you keep
your mind on the job but you're slipping
34
00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:31,600
and it's because you're getting a callus
on your belly from leaning up against bars
35
00:04:31,600 --> 00:04:35,920
you must that kirkland assignment all you could
talk about was a pair of good-looking gams
36
00:04:35,920 --> 00:04:41,120
and that's not my idea of a story oh but ward
she was a dream she was helping out of this world
37
00:04:41,120 --> 00:04:44,560
well you'll be out of a job if you don't get
wise to yourself because a smart guy like me
38
00:04:44,560 --> 00:04:48,160
is not going to go on working for starvation
wages all day long starvation wages are better
39
00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:52,080
than starvation without wages who's talking
about starving you know what i'm going to do
40
00:04:52,080 --> 00:04:55,440
i'm going to find myself a wealthy heiress
i'm going to make her fall in love with him
41
00:04:55,440 --> 00:05:01,280
i'm gonna marry her and then i'll buy this paper
uh but don't worry you can go on working for me
42
00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:09,840

00:05:22,320 --> 00:05:23,840

48
00:06:07,200 --> 00:06:07,760

nature's wonderful isn't it
50
00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:27,760

51
00:06:32,240 --> 00:06:39,360
what's your name how do you like
tommy i like it fine kenny's nice too
52
00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:47,840
how'd you know my name i get around
i'm glad you got it on the living
53
00:06:57,680 --> 00:07:00,880
i don't like the idea of playing around with
another guy's wife why didn't you tell me he
54
00:07:00,880 --> 00:07:04,800
was your husband i took it for granted you
knew i was mrs kirkland why should you take
55
00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:15,840
it for granted he's old enough to be your
father and that's the way it looked to me
56
00:07:26,720 --> 00:07:32,240
kenny don't be like that i didn't think
of anything except that it made me happy
57
00:07:32,240 --> 00:07:37,520
to be with you and there's been very little
happiness in my life since i've been married
58
00:07:39,360 --> 00:07:45,280
he was very thoughtful and gentle before we
were married i thought i loved him but he
59
00:07:45,280 --> 00:07:52,800
changed immediately he became domineering and
constantly nagging about money he's a wealthier
60
00:07:52,800 --> 00:07:58,800
and yet he would scream and ask me every time i
wanted to spend a dime why didn't you divorce him
61
00:07:59,360 --> 00:08:03,920
he's too smart to give me grounds for divorce
he will come through with a decent settlement
62
00:08:04,640 --> 00:08:11,840
he expects me to walk out with nothing after all
these years i've spent with him and i won't do it
63
00:08:13,040 --> 00:08:18,000
but money isn't everything we don't need
his dog you say you love me i do kenny i
64
00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:22,480
love you with all my heart but i'm entitled to
that money and i'll not be cheated out of it
65
00:08:24,720 --> 00:08:27,280
i should have a right to
feel that way of course i do
66
00:08:28,320 --> 00:08:32,320
and i'm not thinking of just myself
i want to share it all with you
67
00:08:33,120 --> 00:08:39,840
i want us to have all the joy in the world
and not just scrimp along on a salary
68
00:09:10,720 --> 00:09:16,320
think of all the accidents that happen every
day nothing ever happens to him yeah a nice
69
00:09:16,320 --> 00:09:21,840
fatal accident to be swell but you can't make
an accident happen where to do the most good
70
00:09:22,880 --> 00:09:35,840
why not i wouldn't be an accident then but
you could help me make it look like one
71
00:09:41,600 --> 00:09:42,560
you got the wrong guy
72
00:09:46,880 --> 00:09:56,000
not even for you kenny kenny you can't blame me
if i have crazy ideas i feel so miserable and
73
00:09:56,000 --> 00:10:00,800
helpless it drives me frantic there's never
been anyone but you that i could talk to
74
00:10:01,520 --> 00:10:05,200
sure i know how you feel but believe
me murder is not the right answer
75
00:10:06,720 --> 00:10:10,880
i guess you'll never really love me
maybe we have different ideas about love
76
00:10:11,680 --> 00:10:17,360
your kind seems to have a string attached
to it a nice long string wouldn't even
77
00:10:17,360 --> 00:10:31,840
let us shove off together now you you better
take another look through the rogues gallery
78
00:10:47,120 --> 00:10:59,840
yes
79
00:11:12,240 --> 00:11:13,840
kenny
80
00:11:21,920 --> 00:11:27,760
oh it's been a tough night seeing you me too kenny
i'm in frightful trouble and i don't know what to
81
00:11:27,760 --> 00:11:41,840
do police no nothing as simple as that tell me
about it can i have a drink first i need it sure
82
00:11:51,120 --> 00:11:53,840
i knew harvey kirkland was
cold rather than selfish
83
00:11:54,640 --> 00:11:56,880
but i never dreamed anyone
could be so utterly proud
84
00:11:59,040 --> 00:12:05,520
what did he do nothing yet but he plans
to frame me with surge of testimony
85
00:12:06,320 --> 00:12:12,000
what do you mean framingham he's going to sue for
divorce he's hired witnesses to purge themselves
86
00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:17,120
and telling a nasty story oh he can't get away
with that oh yes he can he has money enough to
87
00:12:17,120 --> 00:12:22,000
get away with anything and i haven't the money is
fighting they'll blacken my name and they'll be
88
00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:27,600
able to throw me out without a dime he's bluffing
oh no he isn't you don't know him he hates me
89
00:12:28,320 --> 00:12:33,120
he'll gladly spend any amount of money to take a
sprite for revenge rather than give me what i'm
90
00:12:33,120 --> 00:12:51,840
entitled to have kenny what am i gonna do keep
your chin up we'll figure out some of the stuff
91
00:12:53,200 --> 00:12:57,840
life could be so wonderful would be
so happy if he was out of our way
92
00:13:01,600 --> 00:13:05,840
we'd be rich have all the
money we could possibly want
93
00:13:06,880 --> 00:13:13,760
we get away from here go to rio
rival where there's life and music
94
00:13:16,560 --> 00:13:20,160
he owns a mountain watch where
he likes to go once in a while
95
00:13:22,400 --> 00:13:25,360
to rest and relax before he says
96
00:13:27,520 --> 00:13:31,520
when he leaves the highway he
turns off on a narrow winding road
97
00:13:32,880 --> 00:13:40,080
where an accident could easily happen and
every time he makes that trip we hope he'll
98
00:13:40,080 --> 00:13:47,840
go off the edge of one of those hairpin turns
yeah return to the wheel would pay off big
99
00:13:49,680 --> 00:13:55,280
but you can't send a car over a bank by
wishing i know that's just the trouble
100
00:14:00,560 --> 00:14:15,840
how about another drink i could choose one
101
00:14:18,320 --> 00:14:23,920
hey some uh some girl named tony called
up we'll see you right away huh it's nice
102
00:14:25,200 --> 00:14:29,840
well if you don't want her i'll take her hey
103
00:14:39,520 --> 00:14:43,840
sober is a judge too sober if you ask me
104
00:14:50,400 --> 00:14:53,920
where'd you have me come here for is that
smart there's no one else in my house
105
00:14:53,920 --> 00:14:56,560
kenny we've got that right away he's
on his way up the lodge and we'll not
106
00:14:56,560 --> 00:14:59,840
have another chance like this he'll start
the divorce so as soon as he comes back
107
00:15:00,400 --> 00:15:04,000
are you sure you want to go through with this
of course i do kenny your plan is good and
108
00:15:04,000 --> 00:15:08,480
you can count on me to carry my end we mean
too much to each other you can't let me down
109
00:15:09,760 --> 00:15:13,440
i'm not gonna let you down that's where
you want it to where it's gonna be
110
00:15:14,720 --> 00:15:18,320
did you invite me up here just for the pleasure
of having a fight i hope you'll be ready to show
111
00:15:18,320 --> 00:15:22,480
a little common sense is our common sense way of
submitting to highway robbery you've been trying
112
00:15:22,480 --> 00:15:26,240
to maneuver me into a corner where you steal my
shirt i've been trying to salvage something from
113
00:15:26,240 --> 00:15:30,320
a badly mismanaged business and i don't feel like
playing santa claus you've been secretly buying
114
00:15:30,320 --> 00:15:34,800
up stock so you could grab control of the merger
but you're not going to get away with it i'll stop
115
00:15:34,800 --> 00:15:39,840
you if i have to break your knife you always
were a stubborn right about time you grew up
116
00:15:45,200 --> 00:15:50,800
what do you want excuse me mr kirkland but
i wasn't expecting it and i'm kind of low on
117
00:15:50,800 --> 00:15:56,000
provisions put on the village and get what
you want yes sir it'll take quite a while
118
00:15:56,000 --> 00:16:07,840
this ain't working like she
should on the uphill pool
119
00:16:15,040 --> 00:16:21,280
harvey i'm sorry i blew my top oh forget
it we've known each other too many years i
120
00:16:21,280 --> 00:16:35,840
didn't take it seriously but here we won't have
any difficulty at all aiming at this business
121
00:16:37,920 --> 00:16:49,840
uh
122
00:17:05,680 --> 00:17:10,400
tony is certainly a beautiful woman tony
is certainly an extravagant headache
123
00:17:11,200 --> 00:17:14,320
she's made it quite clear that her
chief interest in me is financial
124
00:17:14,320 --> 00:17:31,840
i'm sorry to hear that don't shed any tears
on my account doesn't bother me much anymore

170
00:26:49,760 --> 00:26:56,080
business all right ward what's the assignment
was killed in a motor accident he's a big shot
171
00:26:56,080 --> 00:27:05,840
and the story's worth a spread right it up from
all angles with a lot of human interest on it
172
00:27:06,960 --> 00:27:19,840
surprised
173
00:27:32,000 --> 00:27:39,120
hello i come to homicide squads investigating an
accident that was no accident that was murdered
174
00:27:42,080 --> 00:27:46,880
well unless you think it was murder
that car wasn't driven off the road
175
00:27:46,880 --> 00:27:52,800
the ignition was off and it wasn't in gear the
corpse doesn't bleed so we know that kirkland
176
00:27:52,800 --> 00:28:02,240
was dead when he was placed behind the wheel that
can't be he doesn't have an enemy in the world
177
00:28:02,240 --> 00:28:06,480
him and this fella was having quite a heated
coral before i left he called mr kirkland a
178
00:28:06,480 --> 00:28:11,200
crook and threatened to break his neck now that
made exactly friendly words we had a disagreement
179
00:28:11,200 --> 00:28:15,440
over a business deal but he's exaggerating
the incident i know what i heard and i ain't
180
00:28:15,440 --> 00:28:20,240
exaggerating nothing sit down we'll talk about
that later suppose you explain this business to
181
00:28:20,240 --> 00:28:25,120
you well for some time kirkland's tried to absorb
my business in consolidation were you agreeable
182
00:28:25,120 --> 00:28:32,480
well not completely was he in a position to use
pressure yes in a way but i had nothing to worry
183
00:28:32,480 --> 00:28:39,040
about harvey and i were friends how about
a picture gorgeous oh sure it's good on it
184
00:28:41,120 --> 00:28:45,520
uh i'm sorry to bother you at a time like
this mrs kirkland but might we have a picture
185
00:28:46,320 --> 00:28:57,840
certainly i don't mind
186
00:29:03,440 --> 00:29:07,760
this this puts us in an awful spot what are
we going to do don't be silly but you can't
187
00:29:07,760 --> 00:29:13,840
let jordan take the wrap for us are you turning
out to be a jellyfish you certainly fooled me
188
00:29:14,720 --> 00:29:18,720
i counted on the help of a man oh i don't
know this whole thing's thrown me for a
189
00:29:18,720 --> 00:29:22,240
loss i can't think straight then you'd
better let me do your thinking for you
190
00:29:23,360 --> 00:29:30,320
look tony it's one thing to kill a man and take
your chances on getting caught kenny we're tied
191
00:29:30,320 --> 00:29:37,760
together if you crack up and do something foolish
you'll drag me into it would it make you feel
192
00:29:37,760 --> 00:29:43,040
better to see me in his place no i don't talk
like that then pull yourself together because
193
00:29:43,040 --> 00:29:49,920
we're heading in that direction look if the law
makes a mistake that isn't your responsibility
194
00:29:51,200 --> 00:29:58,080
think about us kenny we have all the world
and all of life out of it we'll leave here
195
00:29:58,080 --> 00:30:02,320
as soon as i settle the estate and we'll be so
happy we'll forget all about everything that
196
00:30:02,320 --> 00:30:10,320
ever happened here we've got clear sailing
guinea don't rock the bone all right baby
197
00:30:12,400 --> 00:30:13,600
all right anything you say
198
00:30:19,280 --> 00:30:21,840
hey
199
00:30:32,800 --> 00:30:38,720
you know kenny i can't get that jordan trial out
of my mind when a thing bothers me i've got to
200
00:30:38,720 --> 00:30:43,200
do something about it i want you to bother
because i've got a hunch that jordan is not
201
00:30:43,200 --> 00:30:48,000
guilty oh i know the only fingerprints found
on the car belonged to jordan and to kirkland
202
00:30:49,040 --> 00:30:52,400
the caretaker testified that there
was not another soul in the district
203
00:30:52,400 --> 00:30:56,880
and he passed no one on the road mrs
kirkland wasn't in her car when he drove by
204
00:30:57,760 --> 00:31:00,160
but she claimed she was over
the ranch house teleporting
205
00:31:03,440 --> 00:31:08,400
we've got no time check to disprove her story
besides it's not the kind of a job that a woman
206
00:31:08,400 --> 00:31:14,640
could do by herself it looked like they had an
airtight case against jordan and they convicted
207
00:31:14,640 --> 00:31:20,080
him they did not establish sufficient motive for
the murder well i've said a lot of times i'd like
208
00:31:20,080 --> 00:31:24,560
to break your neck that didn't mean that i had any
intention of doing it i'm glad you're only kidding
209
00:31:24,560 --> 00:31:29,600
that's a load off my mind i'll bet my shirt
but there's a motive for this kirkland murder
210
00:31:29,600 --> 00:31:35,040
that hasn't been uncovered and if or when
it is then you'll have your real murderer
211
00:31:36,400 --> 00:31:42,000
boy would that be a story living or dead i'll not
be just out of that money with the world leading
212
00:31:42,000 --> 00:31:47,360
the broke of his estate to charity i earned every
dime of it by putting up with him as long as i did
213
00:31:47,360 --> 00:31:52,480
i'm going to have it i'll break that quill baby
you get a third the law guarantees you that why
214
00:31:52,480 --> 00:31:56,480
don't you take it and be satisfied are you crazy
the less i mixed up with the law the better i like
215
00:31:56,480 --> 00:32:01,200
it something might backfire i can't understand
anyone being so eager to toss off a fortune tony
216
00:32:03,040 --> 00:32:07,520
you always hit the wire first with me the money
came in a very poor so it's beginning to look like
217
00:32:07,520 --> 00:32:10,800
it was the other way around with you well i'm
not gonna be cheated on something that belongs
218
00:32:10,800 --> 00:32:18,320
to me but i'm afraid the price for it did say
there was no one else around that day but i saw
219
00:32:18,320 --> 00:32:24,800
a stranger drive down the road quite a while after
mrs kirkland telephone you think you'd recognize
220
00:32:24,800 --> 00:32:32,880
him if you saw him again i don't know i might if
i saw him in the car i think i'd recognize the car
221
00:32:34,000 --> 00:32:39,120
did you see mrs kirkland again yes she
come back to phone her husband again
222
00:32:39,120 --> 00:32:44,320
a short time after that fella drove down
the road but she didn't get no answer that
223
00:32:44,320 --> 00:32:50,000
time she was pretty mad about her husband not
coming together and she called up a garage in
224
00:32:50,000 --> 00:32:56,160
the village to send someone out to fix her
car she seemed on an awful hurry to get away
225
00:32:56,160 --> 00:33:09,840
said she better wait in that car maybe
she didn't think i was good enough to live
226
00:33:14,400 --> 00:33:16,640
hello kenny hello warren
227
00:33:18,720 --> 00:33:23,840
what's on your mind plenty
228
00:33:32,720 --> 00:33:35,840
since when did you get interested
in women isn't everybody
229
00:33:36,720 --> 00:33:42,960
i suppose so you know kenny i've got a hunch that
i can smoke out of story on this kirk murder and
230
00:33:42,960 --> 00:33:51,840
i kind of like to have somebody to talk it over
with so i well it helps me fit the pieces together
231
00:33:53,440 --> 00:33:55,120
yeah sure
232
00:33:57,840 --> 00:34:03,120
go ahead and bounce your ideas off me well i've
been trying to dig up all i could about mrs
233
00:34:03,120 --> 00:34:08,400
kirkland before she was married and if she wasn't
a gold digger she was a reasonable facsimile
234
00:34:09,360 --> 00:34:14,880
now maybe she was in love with kirkland and maybe
she wasn't maybe she went overboard for some guy
235
00:34:14,880 --> 00:34:20,720
closer to her own age and then became impatient
to cash in on the kirkland marriage that story
236
00:34:20,720 --> 00:34:26,400
would fit in nicely with the mysterious stranger
who was seen in the locality from the day that
237
00:34:26,400 --> 00:34:32,800
kirkland was murdered serious strangers mm-hmm
where'd you dream that one up i didn't dream it
238
00:34:32,800 --> 00:34:37,600
up he was seen driving down the road and i'll
bet he could be identified if i could find him
239
00:34:37,600 --> 00:34:43,200
and i'd be very much interested to know what he
was doing there at that time that would give me
240
00:34:43,200 --> 00:34:50,480
a believable motive for murder and then two i'd
like to probe into mrs kirkland's romance if any
241
00:34:53,360 --> 00:34:57,840
lord with your imagination you ought to be doing
a comic strip yeah but i do all right at that
242
00:34:57,840 --> 00:35:02,640
you know when i get a hunch i put my imagination
to work on all angles and then i want to see which
243
00:35:02,640 --> 00:35:08,000
one would pan out yeah but when i turn in a
story it's got to be facts not imagination
244
00:35:08,000 --> 00:35:11,920
has all this heavy thinking uh
giving you a thirst how about a shot
245
00:35:11,920 --> 00:35:15,840
no not nothing i want you don't
mind if i have one no go ahead
246
00:35:28,320 --> 00:35:36,480
no one's okay two not too good three could
be bad i'll engrave those words of worse
247
00:35:36,480 --> 00:35:42,960
i'm on the bottle they do you more good than
the caption 100 proof now assuming that tony
248
00:35:42,960 --> 00:35:49,360
kirkland is mixed up in this murder she'd need
help and that mysterious stranger fits perfectly
249
00:35:49,360 --> 00:35:57,840
into the picture if i could only put my finger
on him or some clue that would lead me to him
250
00:36:04,640 --> 00:36:08,560
i'm sorry to revive unhappy memories
mrs kirkland but i was sure that you'd
251
00:36:08,560 --> 00:36:13,360
be willing to assist in any way that you
can naturally won't you sit down thank you
252
00:36:17,040 --> 00:36:23,360
that perfume smells familiar that's quite possible
anyone can buy it if they feel that extravagant
253
00:36:23,360 --> 00:36:27,600
i can't recall why it should seem familiar but
i don't suppose it's worth bothering but is it
254
00:36:28,640 --> 00:36:33,520
how do you think i can be of assistance oh
i'm sorry i allowed my thoughts to ramble
255
00:36:34,080 --> 00:36:39,040
i believe you said that you waited in your car
all the time except when you went to telephone
256
00:36:39,040 --> 00:36:43,680
that's right can you tell me who passed along
the road while you were waiting in your car
257
00:36:44,880 --> 00:36:49,920
the lord was deserving no one passed
by are you sure of course i'm sure
258
00:36:52,800 --> 00:36:57,520
you believe that craig jordan deserves to
die the law sounding guilty of murder why
259
00:36:57,520 --> 00:37:02,480
should i question the verdict oh it's just
a passing thought well thank you very much
260
00:37:03,040 --> 00:37:08,320
i'm sorry i couldn't tell you anything you've
told me all that i wanted to know good afternoon
261
00:37:18,080 --> 00:37:25,040
oh mr mckee yes i am maybe stupid i can't
understand the reason for your visit well
262
00:37:25,040 --> 00:37:30,000
a story is the breath of life to a newspaper
man he can't pass up any possibility i see
263
00:37:33,200 --> 00:37:38,880
but uh why did you expect to find a story here
mr mckee i always expect to find the story any
264
00:37:38,880 --> 00:37:43,920
place you see i get a hunch once in a while about
something and uh gives the boys quite a laugh but
265
00:37:43,920 --> 00:37:49,840
i like to snoop around and see if it amounts to
it well good afternoon mrs kirkland good afternoon
266
00:38:05,200 --> 00:38:07,600
what's he doing here let's go in the library
267
00:38:12,720 --> 00:38:17,600
what did the key want he asked me if
i saw anyone else on the road that day
268
00:38:17,600 --> 00:38:21,600
i told him i didn't oh he knows you lied the
woman at the ranch house saw me and he's got
269
00:38:21,600 --> 00:38:28,240
a pretty good idea as to why he lied even so it
won't get him anywhere tony i i'm afraid of my key
270
00:38:28,240 --> 00:38:31,920
you don't know that guy when he once sells
himself an idea he won't give up on it until
271
00:38:31,920 --> 00:38:36,240
he's proved it one way or the other he can't prove
anything if we sit tight and keep our mouth shut
272
00:38:39,600 --> 00:38:46,000
maybe you're sorry you ever
had the misfortune to meet me
273
00:38:46,000 --> 00:38:50,480
don't mean that you know i'm crazy about
you but can't you see we're running the
274
00:38:50,480 --> 00:38:55,440
risk of losing everything by trying to grab
too much maybe we're playing with dynams if
275
00:38:55,440 --> 00:38:58,240
mckee should ever find out about you and
me he'd put two and two together and we
276
00:38:58,240 --> 00:39:04,240
wouldn't like the answer don't be silly mckee
is not superman and we're playing for a fortune
277
00:39:07,200 --> 00:39:10,000
not me baby what i did i did for you
278
00:39:10,640 --> 00:39:16,480
or for some other guy's dough you sold me a
beautiful idea about life and love and gay
279
00:39:16,480 --> 00:39:28,160
all right let's go where we can have
something who's that how do i know
280
00:39:28,160 --> 00:39:30,240

to come in yes ma'am this way please
282
00:39:46,800 --> 00:39:51,040
i'm sorry if i'm intruding oh

283
00:39:51,040 --> 00:39:56,320
mr blake is a newspaper man i'm very glad to
meet you he did good publicity never heard a case
284
00:39:56,320 --> 00:40:00,640
what do you mean case i'm representing mrs
kirkland in a reference to abrogate the injustice
285
00:40:00,640 --> 00:40:09,840
of her late husband's will well i see thanks
for the interview mr kirkland i'll be going now
286
00:40:10,480 --> 00:40:11,040

okay
288
00:40:19,920 --> 00:40:37,840
you're going through with it are you i am well i
think you're making a mistake and i hope i'm wrong
289
00:40:44,640 --> 00:40:46,000
won't you sit down thank you
290
00:40:49,440 --> 00:40:52,640
in the effort to have a will set
aside there are two means of attack
291
00:40:52,640 --> 00:40:55,920
first that the testator was
subject to undue influence or
292
00:40:55,920 --> 00:41:00,080
second but he was of unsound mind at the
time of the execution of the will yes
293
00:41:02,560 --> 00:41:08,560
i would say that uh unappreciation of you would be
evidence of an unsound mind oh that's very sweet
294
00:41:08,560 --> 00:41:15,040
of you to say so is that your personal or legal
opinion both but i doubt if that much trouble
295
00:41:15,680 --> 00:41:18,400
quite sees the argument from my point of view well
296
00:41:18,400 --> 00:41:33,840
i'm sure you know how to present an
argument to make it most effective
297
00:41:38,240 --> 00:41:43,040
your taste in art seems somewhat on the
morbid side working around the newspapers
298
00:41:43,040 --> 00:41:47,840
enough to make anybody more but isn't
it i think you've got something there
299
00:41:56,720 --> 00:42:01,120
hey is there someone around your name mckee
could be who are you well that's not important
300
00:42:01,120 --> 00:42:05,120
i've got some information i think you'd like to
have well mckee is a very busy man i'd suggest
301
00:42:05,120 --> 00:42:09,120
that you write a letter asking for the point
oh i ain't going to write no letters to nobody
302
00:42:09,120 --> 00:42:14,000
now look here young color i drove all the way
down here to talk to him and it's a long way

to talk to nobody but mckee but i'm afraid you're
307
00:42:33,600 --> 00:42:38,000
not going to talk to anybody but he hasn't got
time to see everybody barges in well if that's
308
00:42:38,000 --> 00:42:46,480
the case i guess i'd better go oh mr mckee what
about these papers take him over here to jackson
309
00:42:49,920 --> 00:42:54,560
your name mckee that's right well i've got
some information that'll knock your eye out
310
00:42:54,560 --> 00:43:00,000
yeah what about the kirkland murder case who
are you i'm the caretaker at the kirkland place
311
00:43:00,000 --> 00:43:04,720
oh you come in my office kenny come on in this
may turn out to be a story for you to work on
312
00:43:11,600 --> 00:43:12,100
sit down
313
00:43:16,960 --> 00:43:23,840
all right let's have it well if you remember i
swore in court there was nobody with mr jordan
314
00:43:23,840 --> 00:43:27,760
back in the mountains the day mr kirkland
was killed yes i remember well i was mistook
315
00:43:28,400 --> 00:43:32,240
i was talking to mrs harper the other day her
and her husband live on that ranch just off
316
00:43:32,240 --> 00:43:36,960
the highway she told me about you being there
and about telling you about a stranger she saw
317
00:43:36,960 --> 00:43:42,880
driving down the road well sir i got the figure
that somebody was lying and i know that i wasn't
318
00:43:42,880 --> 00:43:48,880
deliberately lying so i've done a little scouting
around and what do you think i found what did you
319
00:43:48,880 --> 00:43:54,160
find well sir i found tire tracks where a car
had been grip off the road and hid in the bushes
320
00:43:54,160 --> 00:43:58,960
right close to where lizzy started shedding that
day and i bet you there was a settlement there
321
00:43:58,960 --> 00:44:05,520
all the time i was fixing her what do you say they
why because i found footprints of course it wasn't
322
00:44:05,520 --> 00:44:10,480
very plain anymore but there was plenty enough
for me to see if there was a man and a woman we're
323
00:44:10,480 --> 00:44:16,960
closing in i've pinned that murder on her and
her boyfriend and what a story that'll make now
324
00:44:16,960 --> 00:44:21,760
you can take a bow on this one yeah for when you
get it of course i'll get it it's wide open all
325
00:44:21,760 --> 00:44:28,960
i've got to do is fill in a few details nice going
i'll see that you're well paid for your trouble oh
326
00:44:28,960 --> 00:44:35,840
ain't necessary but i'd be happy if you did later
hello there try to keep me from talking to you
327
00:44:37,440 --> 00:44:42,000
why he uh he wouldn't tell me what he wanted

330
00:44:49,040 --> 00:44:52,320

331
00:44:54,400 --> 00:44:58,080

333
00:45:02,480 --> 00:45:07,040

a hunch and this one is running true to form
334
00:45:07,040 --> 00:45:17,840
yeah hunch mckee the wizard of the press that'll
make you take out a clairvoyance license yeah

don't tell me that i'm sorry i only make the
connection i do not bring to the other party
338
00:46:07,120 --> 00:46:11,840
nice to get out in the country i thought you'd
rather come out here for a business conference
339
00:46:11,840 --> 00:46:16,240
it's a wonderful idea we'll stop a little
roadhouse i know it's a great little place
340
00:46:16,240 --> 00:46:23,360
i'm sure you like it i'm sure i will you know
i always thought attorneys were so cold-blooded
341
00:46:24,080 --> 00:46:29,280
that depends on the case
and also the client i think
342
00:46:34,640 --> 00:46:38,080
where's kenny blake i told him to
be ready to start in half an hour
343
00:46:38,080 --> 00:46:41,840
i don't know we'll call up
joe's bar and see if he's there
344
00:46:54,080 --> 00:46:58,880
well what happened to you i uh guess i can't
go with you i tripped and fell on the stairs
345
00:47:01,600 --> 00:47:06,880

347
00:47:12,560 --> 00:47:16,880
have cost you the chance to be in on a whale of a
big story i'll tell you all about it when we get
348
00:47:23,440 --> 00:47:27,200
mr back is on the phone tell him i'm not in
349

just a moment i'll see she's in mr
blake is on the telephone i'm not in yes
350
00:47:45,360 --> 00:47:51,840
mr scotland is not at home
351
00:48:16,240 --> 00:48:25,520
oh hello lord hello kenny how's the
riff first oh it's okay that's good
352
00:48:27,040 --> 00:48:31,680
something on your mind again yeah i
seem to be headed up a blind alley
353
00:48:32,960 --> 00:48:37,680
i know that tony and some man lay and wait for
kirkland and murdered him then they put him in
354
00:48:37,680 --> 00:48:42,800
the car and shoved him over the cliff but i can't
get the first face until i find out who the guy is
355
00:48:43,440 --> 00:48:48,320
and she won't lead me to it she's playing
around with some lawyer named webb
356
00:48:48,320 --> 00:48:54,080
seems to be crazy about him but he's not the
man i want i verified he was in court the day
357
00:48:54,080 --> 00:49:01,120
of the murder a perfect alibi are you are
you sure about this guy webb of course i'm
358
00:49:01,120 --> 00:49:05,840
sure i've got a private detective's report on
her believe me it's nothing she can be proud of
359
00:49:08,400 --> 00:49:13,120
that's that's a sweet payoff for the guy who
committed the murder isn't it what could he
360
00:49:13,120 --> 00:49:19,440
expect anyone who'd go for a pony like her
can't be very bright i found some footprints
361
00:49:19,440 --> 00:49:24,960
in pretty good shape had faster casts made of
them but i can't spring that until i find the
362
00:49:24,960 --> 00:49:30,560
guy that made the footprints and i haven't much
time unless the governor grants a reprieve craig
363
00:49:30,560 --> 00:49:37,120
jordan may be executed before i can break the
story and kenny an innocent man is going to die
364
00:49:43,360 --> 00:49:49,600
even in the darkest hour of human existence there
is always at hand an unfailing source of comfort
365
00:49:49,600 --> 00:49:55,840
to any who are willing to accept it man
can be in no extremity where the tender
366
00:49:55,840 --> 00:50:01,600
mercy of our lord cannot reach him it's
justice not mercy i need i'm not a murderer
367
00:50:02,560 --> 00:50:07,600
harvey kirkland is my friend and i did not kill
him the man who killed harvey will be guilty of
368
00:50:07,600 --> 00:50:25,840
tumors if he allows me to die in his place you can
pray for him he'll need your prayers more than i
369
00:50:30,960 --> 00:50:39,840

money i know sweden i'm as impatient as you
376
00:52:21,920 --> 00:52:31,840

of its course there's no way of hurrying
377

high degree of efficiency

399
00:58:18,480 --> 00:58:35,840
husband in a drunken squad and a finer man you'd
never hope to know when he left the creature alone
400
00:58:46,800 --> 00:58:49,840
i got a byline on a front page spread
401
00:58:57,840 --> 00:59:06,880
yo maggie it's funny how murder steps up on
a person it is that i could murder in full
402
00:59:06,880 --> 00:59:11,280
blood the blackguard who choose tobacco
around here and is no judge of distance
403
00:59:16,640 --> 00:59:22,000
it's all in the day's work and i went
after an interview with harvey kirkland
404
00:59:23,680 --> 00:59:26,400
but it didn't seem like i picked a bad time
405
00:59:30,160 --> 00:59:36,880
hello mckay what do you want what's happened here
plenty you smell a story almost before it happens
406
00:59:36,880 --> 00:59:45,840
don't you well go ahead in lieutenant edwards
with the homicide squads in there thanks man
407
00:59:54,480 --> 00:59:59,840
you tell me looks like murder and suicide
or double murder i don't know yet for sure
408
01:00:01,600 --> 01:00:06,720
what's tony kirkland that's right how come you're
johnny on the spot were you expecting something
409
01:00:06,720 --> 01:00:13,840
like this i was following up a hunch that's all
looks like i was right you late to do any good
410
01:00:16,080 --> 01:00:22,480
who's this his name's alan webb that's all i know
so far following a hunch is a very thin excuse for
411
01:00:22,480 --> 01:00:28,000
you coming here i'll come clean now what do you
know about this i was following a hunch that's all
412
01:00:28,880 --> 01:00:31,760
i believe that this ties in with
the murder of harvey kirkland
413
01:00:32,320 --> 01:00:37,600
and that there's a story here that would
save craig jordan if they could talk i was
414
01:00:37,600 --> 01:00:41,520
on that jordan case and there was plenty of
evidence to prove him guilty yeah i know you
415
01:00:41,520 --> 01:00:46,400
had everything except a motive and no murder was
ever planned without a whale of a strong motive
416
01:00:47,200 --> 01:00:55,840
lieutenant take a look at this i sit on a bench
out there and stuck my hand in a puddle of blood
417
01:00:58,800 --> 01:00:59,300
over there
418
01:01:09,200 --> 01:01:13,280
neither of that parents i could have made
it from here this blood must have been
419
01:01:13,280 --> 01:01:18,320
spilled by a third party i don't need a ward
mckee hunch to show me the pattern of this
420
01:01:18,960 --> 01:01:24,560
take two men one woman and a gun stir them well
you got a murder happens every time it could
421
01:01:24,560 --> 01:01:29,360
still tie in with a murder harvey kirkland could
tie in with the war but i don't believe it does
422
01:01:30,000 --> 01:01:37,840
i'll send out a general alarm
to pick up a wounded man come on
423
01:02:26,640 --> 01:02:33,840
foreign
424
01:02:42,560 --> 01:02:47,840
hmm
425
01:03:06,080 --> 01:03:08,000
here it is kenny you lost
426
01:03:11,760 --> 01:03:15,840
yeah i remember
427
01:03:24,560 --> 01:03:31,920
i had a hunch this was it kenny but i couldn't
prove anything i had to have a confession so i
428
01:03:31,920 --> 01:03:43,840
warned if i'd been really smart i didn't
know that i had to end this way it had to be
429
01:03:44,880 --> 01:03:58,080
get me the emergency hospital
430
01:03:58,080 --> 01:04:06,138
