In the year 716 AD, when Buddhism was

first accepted in Japan, three monkeys

were fashioned from a secret alloy and

placed in the Yamitsu temple. They were

hear no evil, see no evil,

speak no evil.

The formula of this alloy was then

destroyed and remained a secret for

centuries until it was rediscovered by

modern civilization [music] and called

brass.

In the 19th century, the warlords

ravaged the land and the monkeys

disappeared from the temple. To the

collector or religious fanatic, the

value of these brass monkeys is beyond

compute.

>> Right, Stuart. Would you mind shutting

up those bags for me?

>> Yes.

I'd um put these cigarettes in your

overcoat pocket if I were you, sir.

England, you know, England home and duty

know our customs. St. You give me

Sheldon my message.

>> Oh, I uh didn't like to interrupt her,

sir. She's up [music] on deck with Mr.

Levis. Levvice?

>> Yes, sir. The wireless gentleman.

>> Yes, I know you need an advertising.

[music]

>> Peace. Peace. Perfect. Peace. You know,

when you came on board, I said, "There's

Carol Levis. Carol on holiday. Peace and

solitude is what he wants." I thought

you'd want to avoid show people.

>> Never and never you.

>> Say, uh, what happened to that show you

were in out east?

>> It went west.

>> I couldn't have stayed with it anyway

since I'm going to be married.

>> You're not going to give up your career.

>> Well, that's Max's idea.

>> Come on, Carol. Let's get some exercise.

Huh? There's only one thing I hate more

than exercise.

>> I know. More exercise.

>> Come on, baby.

>> I'm exhausted.

>> You can't jump up now.

>> I have.

>> Charming, my dear. A charming

exhibition.

>> I hate to interrupt it.

>> Really, Matt?

>> We'll be talking in a few hours. Haven't

you better seat to your packing? That is

if Mr. Levis will excuse you. Of course.

>> Of course.

>> So, please. See you a little later,

Carol. Darling,

>> charming exhibition of extremely bad

manners. Max, you behave like a school

boy.

>> You don't really believe I'm jealous of

Carol Levis, do you? It's what he

represents, I mind. Theatricals, show

business, all that kind of nonsense.

>> But it's not nonsense, Max. It's part of

my life, part of my world.

>> But we agreed that you were going to

give up your career.

>> That was your idea.

>> But you are going to give it up. and all

the people that go with it.

>> If those are your sentiments, I suggest

we call the whole thing off here and

now, Max.

>> Oh, please, Kay, don't us quarrel about

anything so unimportant as Carol lives.

>> Carol is a very old friend of mine, and

I have no intention of dropping him or

any of my other friends.

>> Darling, please try and understand. The

theater is a part of your life that I

don't share. That's what I'm really

jealous of. That's why I asked you to

give it up.

>> Yes.

Oh, excuse me, madam. I thought if you

had any baggage packed, I could get it

on deck.

>> Yes, you can close them up and take them

along. Thank you, Stuart.

>> By the way, there's something I forgot

to pack. Put it in your handbag.

>> What is it?

>> Just a brass monkey. A good luck mascot

I picked up.

>> Speak no evil, eh?

>> That's right.

>> Try to remember that.

>> I will.

And you think about what I said.

>> I'm thinking very hard.

Who is he? Skipper. Let me have a look.

Excuse

me, Mr. Levis. Miss Sheldon said, "Would

you please come to her cabin, sir?"

Okay, I'll be right along.

>> Yes. It's a man named Jenkins. I think

one of the deck hands. A deck hand. That

boy's terrific. I'd like to give him a

broadcast. He should go right to the

top.

>> He can't go much higher.

>> You better sign on a new deck hand for

your next trip.

>> Come in.

>> Is it safe?

>> No, I'm alone.

>> All ready to dock.

>> Mhm. Except [music] I'm superstitious

about half empty bottles lying around.

>> Farewell drink, Carol.

>> And many more [music] to come.

>> K. How would you like to be the guest on

our program tomorrow night?

>> I'd love to, Carol.

>> We should arrive in London about 2:00.

How about coming to my office later this

afternoon?

>> Try and stop me.

>> That's the spirit. Bring some music with

you. We'll pick out a number for you to

do.

>> Right.

You've always been so sweet to me,

Carol.

Hey.

>> Well, get him. Speak no evil. Have you

hear no evil and see no evil?

>> Can't expect a girl to have all the

virtues.

>> Cute, isn't he? I could go for him.

>> You could?

>> Well, you keep him in remembrance of me.

>> I get the resemblance.

>> Platter. Go on. Put him in your pocket.

>> A drink [music] to the show.

>> [music]

>> Get out of this cabin.

>> Now, Max,

>> get out.

>> Now, wait a minute. If you want to play

right,

>> I said get out of here.

>> Now, listen to me. I've known Kay a

whole lot longer than you have. And

unless Kay tells me she doesn't want to

see me again, I'll see her where I like

and when I like. So, don't try pushing

me around if you want to collect your

old age pension, I'll turn you inside

out. In fact, you might look better that

way. Thanks for the drink, K.

May I take the luggage, madam?

>> Yes, do it.

having an appointment.

I'm sorry, but Mr. Gilroy never sees

anyone without it.

>> Oh, it's you.

>> All right, Miss Hamilton.

>> Very well, sir.

Well, Peter,

>> Max's ship, Dr. Southampton, today.

>> Splendid. Then it would seem our

troubles are nearly at an end.

>> As we've got to get it through the

customs, it would seem that our troubles

are just beginning.

>> I have the greatest admiration for Dear

Max's ingenuity. But perhaps you're

right. We must consider our imminent

bar. Mr. Rider Harris is a most

impatient client.

>> If Max falls down on this, Unfortunate

for Max.

>> Let's meet the boat.

>> Yeah, Peter, so impetuous. Much as I

should like to accompany you, I have my

prestige to consider as London's most

exclusive and reputable dealer in the

fine arts

>> and biggest fence. [laughter]

>> Don't be course. You meet the boat by

all means. Isn't you understand that I

mistrust friend Max in any way? But as

you imply, is trust enough?

>> You wouldn't trust your best friend,

>> my dear boy. I am my best friend. But if

you choose to watch Max,

>> I'll keep the other eye on him.

>> [music]

[music]

>> Please be home again, Mr. Levis.

>> And how? Thanks for the very pleasant

trip, Captain.

>> Not at all.

>> Oh, about that singing sailor of yours.

When's he coming on our program?

>> I'm afraid he's not.

>> Hey, he seems to prefer painting masks.

[laughter]

[music]

[music]

>> [music]

[music]

>> You all right?

>> Yes, I'll manage.

>> Right. I'll see you on the train.

>> Right.

These are mine.

>> Oh, anything on this list to declare,

sir? Any nylons, perfume, lipstick, nail

varnish?

>> Hey, what do you take me for?

>> Oh, no. I meant as gifts.

>> All right, I'll attend to this,

gentleman.

>> Well, well, well, Spectre,

>> always bumping into each other, aren't

we? What is it this time, Mr. Taylor?

Calcy dope. Jewelry, come on. Open up.

Right through there.

[music]

[music]

>> All right, madam. You're okay.

>> Fine. Thank you, sir.

Feeling

hot, Mr. Taylor?

>> Well, it is a trifle war, Inspector.

>> Then you must come to my office and cool

off. Get the lining out.

>> Don't let your enthusiasm make you

spite.

>> Here we are, sir.

>> Mr. Levis. OH, MR. LEVIES. WAIT, WAIT,

MR. LE.

>> ANGER. What are you doing here?

>> I'm sorry I'm late, Mr. Levis. I had a

little trouble with the clocks. You know

that summer time. I never know whether

to take an hour off the end and put on

the beginning or an hour off the

beginning and put on the end. So, I I

took an hour off both ends and got here

yesterday. I nearly missed you. Oh, I

mean, I have missed you. Have you missed

me?

>> It's one of you to meet me, Arl.

>> Oh, that's right, Mr. Levis. I mean,

either I'm your secretary or you're not,

aren't we? I mean, if a secretary can't

meet the train that brings her own bread

and butter,

>> come into my compartment. Oh, no, no,

no, Mr. Lever. I've come to drive you

back by car.

>> Car? But I didn't know you could drive.

>> Well, I drove down from London, had a

lesson while you were away.

>> One lesson?

>> Well, he didn't call it a lesson. Oh,

the instructor was so funny. Always

kidding. HE KEPT GOING, "AH!" AND THEN

HE GAVE ME MY money back and said he

couldn't teach me anything.

>> Well, how about your driver's test? Did

you pass out?

>> Oh, you know I never swoon. But you

should have seen the examiner. Well,

come on, Mr. Lever.

>> But I like trains, Arl. I love trains.

>> All right, Porter. Don't worry, Mr.

Levis. Your mind's quite made up. Bring

the luggage out here. Here, I'll take

this.

>> Able, I prefer trains.

>> Well, I don't. Nasty, noisy thing.

Besides, look at the time we'll save.

And Cole, the car's just over there. Or

is it over there? Gosh, I forgot where I

put it now.

>> I don't suppose you even brought one.

>> Oh, but I must have done the grief. I

couldn't have walked, could I? Of course

I could. My feet would be killing me.

>> Such a suspicious nature.

Feeding hot. Inspector, you can get

dressed.

Found anything?

>> Not a sausage. How about you, sir?

>> No.

>> I must be getting too old for this job.

>> Should I mark his luggage?

>> Oh, I suppose so.

>> All in, miss.

>> All in. Big strong man like you.

Thank you, Miss

>> Lonnie. What? No cotton.

>> Ail, that's a button.

>> A button? Good grief. Where did that

come from?

>> Oh, skip it. Thanks, buddy.

>> Thank you, sir.

>> There. Speaking of buttons, one of these

usually starts something.

>> Must be another ang that one.

>> [music]

>> patient, Mr. Le

here, sir.

>> Thanks for meeting me, Peter. I never

knew you cared.

>> What was all that sign language at the

barrier? Don't tell me the girl was cut.

Clever little chap, aren't I?

>> Are you mad?

>> I would have been if I had held on to

it. You saw what happened in the

customs.

>> Who is she?

>> She's been very useful. In fact,

congratulate me, chump. I think I'll

marry the girl.

>> Bless you, you fool.

>> I thought you'd be pleased.

>> All great, sir.

>> Thank you, sir.

>> That monkey is dangerous out of our

sight.

>> I'm just as interested in 60,000 quid as

you are, my son.

>> Does she know about it?

>> I do. Really? Who is she anyway? What do

you know about her?

>> Listen, she could go straight to Gilroy

with that monkey and then he would

[music] have all three. If

>> you think Cross is his middle name, he'd

sell to Rither Harris in a minute and

then neither you nor I would see a

penny.

>> Listen, Peter Kane knows nothing about

monkeys. She's never heard of Gilroy.

Her only racket is show business.

>> All right, then. Get it back now. Quick,

I'll wait.

>> Take your seats, please.

>> Don't think you trust me.

I'll see you at Gilroy

>> with the monkey.

>> What on earth happened to your luggage,

Max?

>> The customs people took a fancy to it.

>> Certainly looks it.

>> I was just unlucky. It might have

happened to anyone.

>> I should have held on to my mascot. I

think I'd better have it back.

>> Your mascot?

>> The bar monkey.

But you gave it to me, Max.

>> Oh, no, my dear. I'm sorry.

>> Well, I I'm afraid you'll have to get a

new mask.

>> K.

>> Mhm.

>> The monkey. I want it. Darling,

>> please give it back.

>> Oh, Max.

>> I'm sorry.

It's not there.

>> Where is it?

>> I don't know what all the excitement is

about, but if you must know, I gave it

away.

>> You gave it to to who?

>> Carol Levis.

>> You gave it to Carol Lev.

>> Why not? Wasn't of any value, was it?

>> Mr. Lever, have you no conf

to London with my eyes shut?

>> Try driving to London with your eyes

open. Avil, look up there.

>> Mr. Lever, that sign's pointing the

wrong way.

>> A, we're on our way back to Southampton.

>> We can't be. It's an optical conclusion.

Look, you can see we're on the right

road by this map.

>> This? There's a map of Scotland.

>> Yes, I know. They were all out of maps

of England.

>> Oh, turn around, Avil. Right around,

>> Mr. Levis. We're taking an awful chance

without that map. We might get lost.

>> Well, Mr. Rider Harris will be here by

5. Now I don't want to know why you

haven't monkey. I don't even want to

know who has it. But what I do want to

know is that it will be here by 5:00.

>> Now listen, AJ, I've told you. Kay has

an appointment with Levis this

afternoon. She'll get it back. I know.

>> You know a lot of things, don't you? You

might even know something that you

haven't told us. I think something

should be done about you.

>> One day, Peter, if you're not careful,

you'll smile.

>> When I do, you'll be careful.

>> My favorite comedian. Shut up. This Ka

Miss Shelton, since when, my dear Max,

have we had women working for us?

>> There's women in business don't mix. She

got it through the customs for us,

didn't she?

>> Yes, and she gave it away for us, too.

>> Or did she give it away? Or did she know

the value of that ape?

>> It doesn't mean a thing to her.

>> Yet, one wonders if somehow she knew

that Mr. Ryder Harris had spent most of

his life and his fortune searching for

the monkeys.

>> Of course not. So it's just a

coincidence that when eventually they

fell into his hands out east, she

happened to be there with the theatrical

company.

>> Now look here,

>> which means that she was there when the

monkeys were stolen from him.

>> Do she know who stole them?

>> But she's never heard of you. She's

never heard of any of it.

>> So and yet if she knew the price Mr.

Ryder Harris has offered for their

recovery, and the two of the monkeys are

in my safe, valorous without the vert.

>> But how could she?

>> Perhaps her fiance told her.

>> I don't like that. Al Max, Peter, get

out of my chair.

Must not forget, Max, that young Peter

had incurred grave danger smuggling his

monkey into the country. My

responsibility with mine was not without

risk, but all our efforts are put in

jeopardy by your apparently casual

handling of the third monkey.

>> But AJ, do be reasonable.

>> The complete set is worth �60,000 to us.

Incomplete nothing.

>> Give me till 5:00.

>> But certainly, I will even go so far as

to give you until 5:15.

>> That should be all right.

>> Should be, dear boy.

must be. I'm very fond of you, Max. Very

fond indeed. I should be extremely upset

if anything happened to you.

>> 5:15. Then

trust me to have it here.

>> Trust you?

Of course we trust you, my dear Max. Why

not?

Hey Jay.

>> Yes.

>> If I deliver that monkey myself,

do we share his cut?

>> The fewer people to share that �60,000,

the better.

>> [music]

>> I'm most frightly sorry everybody, but

Mr. Levis has vanished. Just completely

and utterly vanished.

>> I can only ask you all to wait, my

dears. But what else can I do? I'm

completely distracted and utterly

exhausted.

>> If you'll just bear with me a few

moments, I'm sure he'll be here any

minute.

>> Mr. Carol Levis,

>> you use of him. Quickly, tell me.

>> I want to see him.

>> You want to see him, my dear? So, we all

>> a very nice actor here, but too visual

for radio.

Do wait for Mr. Levis, please. I'm just

a waste of time.

>> Where is Levis? I must see him at once.

>> Mr. Levis, f you, please.

>> You must see him. What about us? We've

been waiting for hours.

>> COME ON.

>> I DON'T KNOW. I DON'T KNOW. I DON'T

KNOW. OKAY. NOW, PLEASE, please be

quiet.

>> Excuse me.

I is Terry Thomas. How do you know?

Where are

>> Mr. Thomas? Thanks. Girl, you were here

first. Please, please, you've got to

help me. I can't find Mr. Lavis and ALL

THESE PEOPLE ARE WAITING FOR AUDITIONS.

RELAX. Give it to Uncle Teddy. So, you

want to go on the stage, do you?

[laughter]

You think it's easy, don't you? You

think it's all bear and Skittles, but

you're wrong,

Ty.

A pretty little antic. As a lover, you

must really be romantic.

Come with me to Zakasbar.

You'll have to unravel yourself first.

That whole thing very often drivsly

incredible business of ours. To all

soprano singers, I would like to give

advice. You must practice, practice,

[music] practice. Get those top notes

clear and precise.

Perfect. Perhaps at last you get a job.

You think it'll be fun. You're sitting

on top of the world, boy. No. No. It's a

real heartbreaking business, and your

troubles [music] just begun.

Early morning train calls. Little work

with little pay. Up and down the agent

stairs. The same old answer. Not today.

Drafty rooms without a fire with little

food to spare. Boasting to the other

acts a work that isn't there. Pressing

flip their trousers. Washing tattered

smalls in the rehearsing in dirty little

halls. The note is up. The show is

through. The whole thing starts again. I

can't go on. I can't go on. It's driving

me insane. I've said a thousand times

before. I can't go on again.

But

>> it's the greatest business in the world

with the finest people that you can

meet. Foot lights, grease, paint, all

the lot. Bunch them together. What have

you got? The grandest feeling in the

world. Where you're accepted for what

you're worth. Racial beetle color

doesn't mean a thing. It's the greatest

[music] in the world.

[music]

Come into the garden.

[music]

The grandest feeling in the world

[music and singing] where you're

accepted for what you're worth. Race or

color doesn't mean a thing. It's a crazy

[music]

business. A hazy business. The greatest

[music and singing]

business in the world.

>> You see, I said we're vacant. Mr. Le's

only 2 hours late. Thank heavens we're

back to the peace and quiet of the

office. [music]

>> Hello, Rodney.

>> Mr. Les, at last, are you all right?

>> No, I'm not all right.

>> YOU PUT ME DOWN.

>> Matthew about tomorrow's broadcast.

>> Terry, I'm in a terrible mess. Do you

mind if I call you later?

>> All right. Be at the club.

I'm sorry about the hold up, kids. We

won't be long now. Ail,

>> I don't know what's wrong with Mr.

Levis. We had such fun on the way up.

Got lost, ran out of petrol, had a flat

tire. What do you think? I forgotten the

spare.

>> I'm sure he must have enjoyed that.

>> Nearly killed him.

>> Dear people ring up now.

>> Hello. How are you? Who are you? Who?

>> Oh, wait a minute. I can't hear a word

you're saying.

Oh, hello.

Yes. Yes, we're fine. You're coming

over? Good. You want to bring who?

Fiend. Anyone? I Oh, a friend. Yes. Yes.

Sure. Bring him. Yes, bring them all.

Bye.

>> Who is that?

>> I don't know who it is, Mr. Lev. He'll

be here soon. You can ask him.

>> Take those glasses off, girl. There's

nothing wrong with your eyesight.

>> I know, but don't you think they give me

that sort of air of quiet deficiency?

What's this?

Oh. Oh, it's a little monkey. What's it

for?

>> It's supposed to be a good luck mascot,

but you've certainly put a jinx on it.

>> Oh, dear. I'm sorry. I'll rub it off.

Well, if this is your good luck, we'll

have to take care of it. Tina, where can

we put it?

>> How many times must I tell you? Nothing

but auditions today. Mr. Levis won't get

finished as it is.

>> Now, listen, office boy.

>> Uh, pardon me. I'm Miss Sheldon. I have

an appointment with Mr. Levis.

>> Are you a discovery, Miss Sheldon?

>> Well, I was.

>> Then you still are. Once Mr. Celebs

discovers people, they stay discovered.

So there's not the slightest point in

your bothering him again.

>> But I have an appointment.

>> Oh, they all say that.

>> I really have.

>> They all say that, too.

>> Now, see here. If you don't take my name

into Mr. Lever right now, I am going to

beat you over the head with this ruler.

Do they all say that, too?

>> Okay, Rodney, send in the K, darling.

Come right in.

>> Would you mind putting up with a few

auditions? day. Some of these people

have been waiting for hours.

>> Oh, certainly not. If they won't mind my

being here.

>> You'll inspire them.

>> I might even pick up a few tips.

>> Make yourself comfortable.

>> Hello, Carol. Have a good trip.

>> Terrific.

>> Why? Hello, K. But how lovely to see

you.

>> Thank you.

>> Hello, K.

>> Ail, how are you?

>> There's only one thing wrong with Ail.

She breathes.

>> I do not, Mr. Levis.

>> Come on, Averil. Let's get on with the

auditions. Send in the first discovery.

>> All right, Mr. Levis.

>> Oh, um, by the way, while I think of it,

Carol, remember that brass monkey?

>> Why, yes. Well, Max has been raising the

roof ever since I gave it to you.

>> He would.

>> I hate having to ask for it back.

>> It's a pleasure, sweetheart. He's

welcome to it.

>> Here's the first one, Mr. Levis. He was

right at the door.

>> Okay, come in. Sit down. Make yourself

at home.

>> Don't be nervous.

>> I'll try not to be.

>> All right, Aval, let's get started.

>> Name?

>> Skip it.

>> Address.

>> Skip it.

>> What a coincidence.

>> Okay, AL, do you do an act?

>> An act? Uh,

something like that. What do you do? I

can tell the past and the future.

>> You can [clears throat]

cards, cups, or crystals?

>> Uh, crystals.

>> Oh,

>> let me see.

You are Carol Levith?

>> No.

>> You've just had a long sea trip where I

can see you getting off a boat at

Southampton.

>> Yes.

You went to London by car, but you had

lots of trouble on the road. You ran out

of petrol. You got lost.

You had a puncture. Right. That's right.

Go on.

>> Why such a lot of bad luck? Oh, [music]

what's this? Can't quite make it out.

Looks like a a small animal. A dog or

something.

>> That must be the darn monkey.

>> Of course.

>> Yes, that's right. A brass monkey.

kind of a talisman, right?

>> You're absolutely physic.

>> Must be very powerful. Now, let's see.

How does it affect your future? To tell

that, I have to hold [music] a monkey in

my hand.

>> Have it? Why, yes. Oh, Arvil, you had it

last. Where is it?

>> Where's what?

>> Think back, Arl. I know it's a long time

for you, [music] but 10 minutes ago, you

picked a small monkey off my desk here.

You said you'd put it away safely.

>> Oh, that monkey? Why didn't you say so?

You know, sometimes you're very

confusing. Well, where is it?

>> Um, where is it? Yes. I

>> hope you haven't lost it.

>> Oh, no, no, I haven't lost it. I just

have to remember where I put it, that's

all. Oh, don't worry, Mr. Levis. I'll

find it. You see, I put it somewhere I

knew it'd be absolutely safe. Must have

been in a good place. I can't even find

it myself.

>> I'm not late enough as it is.

>> Oh, I don't know what's the matter with

me. You know, my mind's a complete blank

today.

>> Oh, of course.

>> You remembered?

>> Yes. is the monkey. I couldn't think

what we were looking for.

>> What have I done to deserve this?

>> Please, please, Mr. Lavis.

This is no time to play hunt the

thimble. Not one solitary discovery

discovered yet. And you've got a

broadcast tomorrow night.

>> Okay, Rodney. Sorry everybody. We'll

have to forget the monkey.

>> What monkey?

>> You're the cause of all this. Mr. Levis,

do you want to see this man? He jumped

my queue most frightfully. If you don't

mind, I'll have to see you some other

time.

>> Oh, do come on.

>> All right, Mr. Levy. Some other time

>> soon.

>> Girls, I want 5 minutes absolutely alone

with Kate to rehearse.

>> All right, Mr. Levis, it's your office.

>> I'll buzz you when I want you.

>> I battle on several numbers, Cal. Oh, I

like this one.

I know myself too [music and singing]

well

to admit that it's over.

[music]

I know myself too well [singing]

to call it a day. [music]

And uh what do you do? No, don't tell

me. I know. You shoot that apple off his

head.

>> Sometimes

you'll be first. You can wait. And then

you. And you're next. And then you. And

yes, sir. Is there something,

>> SIR? WHERE ARE YOU GOING? YOU CAN'T go

in there.

What's the big idea?

>> Mr. Livies, I presume.

>> THAT'S RIGHT.

I REALLY don't know how you can work

with all this noise. Mr. Levies,

>> it's the interruptions that hold me up.

Keep quiet out there, Rodney.

>> Allow me to introduce myself and come

quickly to the point. My card. My name

may be familiar to you. But if not, I

can assure you that it is very well

known indeed in art circles throughout

the world. Not only as a dealer, how I

deprecate the word, but as a collector.

>> If you're trying to sell something, Mr.

Gilroy, I'm not buying.

>> I'm selling nothing, Mr. Levis. On the

contrary, I'm here to try to save you

the embarrassment of the police.

>> The police?

>> You happen to be the receiver?

Unwittingly, I'm sure. Of a stolen

object. I am here to collect it.

>> But that's ridiculous,

>> madam. I said unwittingly. A certain

object was stolen from its rightful

owner. It has been traced to you.

>> What object?

>> A small brass monkey.

>> Oh, now really, this is too much.

>> If you will surrender it, the owner

agrees to stop further police

investigation. A man of your standing,

Mr. Livies, can hardly afford to become

involved with the police. I take it you

have it here.

>> It's here somewhere, but it's lost. Now

get out. I'm sick of all this monkey

business. If you don't leave me alone

with Miss Shelton, so help me, there'll

be murder in this office.

>> Oh, that dreadful person. If you don't

get out of here at once, I shall have to

use force.

>> You have my card. I shall expect to hear

from you very soon. Remember,

Mr. Libbyy's stolen property.

>> Dave,

>> stolen property. Don't you touch it.

>> Perhaps I should hand in my resignation,

Mr. Lavis. I've had ever such a nice

offer from the third program. I CAN'T

SEEM TO CONTROL.

>> UM, RODNEY, we've had enough trouble in

here.

>> Trouble in here? THERE'S BETTER TO

[laughter] BE A REVOLUTION OUT THERE.

>> I'm sorry about this, Key. Let's put out

the rehearsals till later tonight. What

do you say?

>> I say I'd be delighted.

>> Okay, laughing boy. Let's get cracking.

April, get pip. Eh, but 10:00 sent you.

All right.

>> Yes, 10:00 would be perfect.

[music]

Now look here, Mr. Geroy. When those

monkeys were stolen from me in the Far

East, you assured me that you would

negotiate their recovery. I agreed to

the price you asked. Where are they?

>> My dear, Mr. Ryder Harris.

>> And don't my dear Mr. Ryder Harris me?

Sir, you must have patience.

>> Did you or did you not telephone to me

that those three monkeys would be here

at 5?

>> I was assured they would be

unfortunately unforeseen, sir.

>> Unforeseen circumstances. These are no

common place brick to be treated in a

casual manner. These are the original

monkeys cast for the Yimu temple in

Japan in 716.

>> This jade B's 500 years older.

>> Mr. Gilroy, you're ignorant of all that

is involved in this. Those monkeys are

the earliest known evidence of the

introduction of Buddhism to the temples

of Japan. To any follower of Buddha,

they are beyond human values. Then your

interest is purely academic.

>> No, Mr. Geroy, I am a Buddhist.

>> Oh,

they came to me as a sacred trust. For

their recovery, I would give my life or

the life of anyone who stood in the way.

Those sacred [music] monkeys have

witnessed much bloodshed.

They saw the massacre of the foreign

priests, the invasion of Korea,

the pillillage of the temples.

Yes, they've seen much bloodshed.

They may see more.

Mr. Ryder Harris, if you take my advice,

>> I [music] did so. I stopped the police

inquiries. I regret it. Go to the police

again and you will have seen the last of

those monkeys. I happen to know the men

I'm dealing with. They're crafty and

cautious.

>> I'm in a most ambiguous position acting

as an intermediary. I dislike the whole

transaction intensely.

>> If you want your pieces back, you must

continue to act as those men dictate. I

recognize no must and I will not be

dictated to in this matter.

>> My dear sir, you have no alternative.

>> No alternative.

>> Apparently,

but only apparently. [music]

>> Oh, thank you, my dear.

>> Perhaps tomorrow I shall have good

[music] use for you. Who knows?

Something may even happen tonight.

>> Amazing. You read my thoughts, Mr.

Gilroy. Something may [music] happen

tonight.

[music]

[music]

>> Knock up, Miss Hamilton.

>> Very good, sir.

>> Good night. [music]

>> Good night.

>> [music]

[music]

>> I don't know.

[music]

>> [music]

>> Thanks, Mark.

>> [music]

[music]

>> Max Taylor.

How's that for punctuality? Right on the

Max.

Max.

Max. Max.

[laughter]

I'm sorry. K.

I'll be all right in a minute.

We must call

Carol. That gun. You killed him.

>> No. No, I didn't. I just got here.

>> Why? Why did you Did he argue with you?

Did he threaten you again? I didn't

shoot him, Kay. It's not mine. I found

it on the floor.

>> Oh, of course. Of course you didn't. You

couldn't have. Quickly, drop that gun,

Carol. We must think fast before the

police get here.

>> But I

>> Oh, I know you didn't. But don't you see

how it looked the police? Why, Carol,

darling,

>> has there been some trouble here?

[music]

>> He's dead.

I heard the shot.

>> Well, sir, who was he? Did you know him?

>> Yes. His name was Max Taylor. He was my

fiance�.

>> Did you know him, sir? Well, I

>> No. No. Mr. Lever never saw him before.

>> You found the police, I suppose, sir?

>> No. As a matter of fact, I I see.

and that gun should be useful. There may

be some fingerprints on it.

>> Hello, Scotland Yard. [music]

>> [music]

[music]

[music]

[music]

>> Not much doubt about it. No, not the

slightest.

>> Stupid joke he made of it.

>> Yeah, he didn't have time to get rid of

the gun.

>> Well, both tests are positive, sir. The

bullet was definitely fired from the gun

in the office, and the fingerprints on

the gun are definitely those of Mr.

Levis.

>> I've just paid a visit to the shipping

company. The girl Sheldon and her

fiance�, Max Taylor, came home on the

same liner.

>> She told us that.

>> Also on board was Mr. Carol Levis.

>> I thought Levis had never met Max

Taylor.

>> Exactly. Come on.

It's all right. There's nothing to be

afraid of.

>> Come along, my boy. Tell these gentlemen

what you know.

>> Very good, sir. I understand you

overheard a row or something of that

sort going on in Miss Sheldon's cabin.

>> That's right, sir. Mr. Carol Levis was

talking to Miss Sheldon, and Mr. Taylor

walked in on them.

>> What happened then?

>> Well, I wasn't listening, but I couldn't

help hearing it. Mr. Mr. Levy said he'd

go on seeing Miss Sheldon as often as he

liked.

>> Anything else?

>> Yes, sir. Mr. Levis warned Mr. Taylor

not to try pushing him around. I think

those were the words he used, sir, if he

uh meaning Mr. Taylor, sir, wanted to go

on living.

>> Did Mr. Taylor make any reply to that?

>> I don't think so, sir. You see, I wasn't

really listening. I just sort of

overheard it.

>> I see. Well, thank you very much,

Stuart. All right. Bye-bye.

Oh, thank you, Captain. I think we've

got all the information we require. Very

upsetting business. Thank you.

>> Inspector Miller, sir.

>> Well, Mr. Levis, I've just had a word

with the assistant commissioner, and

quite frankly, we're not satisfied. In

view of the fresh developments brought

to light today by Detective Sergeant

Richards, have you nothing further to

say?

>> Nothing. following the discovery of the

body in your office. Why did you deny

you knew Max Taylor?

>> I didn't deny it.

>> I said they didn't know each other, not

Mr. Levis.

>> But you at no time contradicted Miss

Sheldon's assertion.

>> Excuse me, sir. Can I make a suggestion?

Isn't it possible that Miss Sheldon here

was in that office with Levvice and her

fiance unexpectedly walked in? The men

quarreled. Levvice pulled a gun and shot

Taylor. Her elicit association with

Levis would immediately prompt her to

try and shield him.

>> You have a vivid imagination, Sergeant.

>> Well, we'll soon find out. You may go

now, Mr. Levis. And you, Miss Sheldon.

You'll both hold yourselves at our

disposal. Of course.

>> Of course.

>> Thanks, Inspector. It's a big help. I'm

on the air tonight.

>> Good afternoon, Inspector.

>> Good afternoon.

>> Goodbye, Mr. Richards.

But sir, I know what you're going to

say, Richards. The case is, as you

implied a few moments ago, obvious. The

trouble, as the assistant commissioner

and I see it, is that it's too obvious.

We're convinced there must be a flaw in

it somewhere, and we see no harm in

Levvis going about his business for a

few days. We never do to make a mistake.

Levvice is extremely popular with the

public.

>> But you can't.

>> Oh, yes, we can. He won't get away. I've

arranged to have him shadowed. Yes, but

suppose he and there's another reason

why I allowed him to walk out of here.

What's that, sir?

>> The Levvisar is my wife's favorite

program.

I wouldn't dare go home and face her.

>> Murder, murder, murder. That's all they

think of.

>> That's all I think of. Well,

>> you shouldn't. Is everyone healthy?

Look, why don't you tell them you

murdered Mr. Taylor in self-defense?

That's only manslaughter. Nobody cares

about manslaughter.

>> Oh, no. It only means about 20 years

behind iron bars for me.

>> Oh, that's fine. and you can give up

flat hunting and I can catch up on the

correspondence.

>> I just thought, Mr. Levis, there's

nothing for Apple to forget. I got

everything here.

>> Thanks, Rodney. I'll see you later.

Goodbye.

>> Bye.

>> Oh, look, Mr. Levis. There's a lovely

one of you. See,

>> Apple, don't you understand? They'll

probably hang me.

>> That's good. We'll still have the last

laugh. They don't know about that new

insurance policy of yours, do they? What

are we going to do with the money?

>> Oh. Oh, you remember that monkey you

lost in the office?

>> I lost.

>> I just remember where I put it. I put it

on the clock over there. You know, same

old spot on the dial.

It's gone. Did you take it?

>> No, of course I didn't.

>> Well, we've had monkey burglars.

>> Nonsense. Hood dealer. Holy smoke. I

believe you've hit on something. Ever

since Kay gave me that monkey, there's

been trouble. Remember that big fellow

with a monle who came barging in here

yesterday.

>> I certainly do. It's the first time man

has locked the door with me in the room

and Mr. Skippet

>> and Max. Kay said Max wanted it. He came

here to look for that monkey.

>> But did he find it?

>> He certainly did. That's why he was

killed. Now, let's see that antique

dealer. I'll start on him. What's his

name?

>> Who? Mr. Gilroy. I I don't know, but he

left his card here somewhere.

>> Find it. It'll have his address.

>> Why don't we just ring him up and ask

him where he lives?

>> Ah, good. I can just about make it. Boy,

will I third degree those guys. Ail, the

case is almost closed. Sherlock Levvice

is on the trail.

>> That's right, Miss Levis. While you're

gone, I'll have a good look for Mr.

Gilroyy's card.

taxi.

Thank you.

At last.

One moment, if you please.

>> [music]

[music]

>> Just a reasonable precaution before we

conclude our business.

Ah, [music]

[music]

hey.

>> [music]

>> Holy smoker.

[music]

>> [music]

[music]

>> The Carol Levy Show.

[music]

Once more, we have a meeting of the

Levies family circle. And now, here

comes the head of the family, Britain's

favorite Canadian, Carol Levies.

>> [applause]

>> Thank you. And how do you do ladies and

gentlemen? How do you do? We're all set

to bring you another quickfire variety

show with the stars of today and

tomorrow. We're all here. So, let's go.

There's music in the air and here's the

music to the tune of It's the greatest

business in the world.

[music]

Any

[music]

[music]

[music]

further developments?

>> Plenty. I wonder how Dick Barton would

get out of this one.

Good evening.

>> Hello.

>> Is Mr. Levis here?

>> I'm sorry. No auditions tonight. Mr. Lev

is very busy. He's gone to the studio.

He's broadcasting in that um

>> It wouldn't by any chance be the Carol

Levis show.

>> Yes, of course. That's right. Naturally.

What else? You do ask some silly

questions.

>> Aren't you with him as a rule?

>> Well, yes, I am usually, but I had to

stay behind to look for Mr. Gilroyy's

visiting card.

>> Is Mr. Gilroy a friend of Mr. Levvis? a

friend. I should say not. You should

just see how friendly they

You should You should just see how

friendly they were the other afternoon

here. All all over Miss Sheldon. It was

too

Mr. Levis had a had a knife in his hand

and he kept waving it around and he said

that he didn't want any monkey business

from Mr. Gilroy and and and he said that

if if Mr. Gilroy

He said if Mr. Gilroy didn't leave him

and Miss Sheldon alone.

He said if he didn't leave them alone,

there was going to be a murder in this

office.

>> Hello. No, this isn't Scotland Yard. You

better dial 999.

>> Allow me.

>> Hello.

Inspector Miller here.

You've got it.

They are. Thanks.

Well, that settles it. Ah, so the

fingerprints found on the gun in the

late Mr. Gilroyy's room belong to Carol

Lev.

>> Yes.

>> So Mr. Levis did shoot that Mr. Gilroy

after all. What do you know?

>> Well,

let's get it over. Good night.

We always try to bring you something

different. And here is something really

different. An old gentleman from

Switzerland who isn't so old because

it's none other than our guest star

Terry Thomas.

[music]

Someone's done something despicable.

Something I'll never forgive.

something so mean and so spiteful.

I really don't care if I live.

I work in the local museum

in the section devoted to hakes birds

hakes in van was my own special

treasure. But mine cap has been drained

[music] to the drains.

Somebody bloom my bluebird's egg. my

beautiful egg of blue. [music]

They promised to buy me a new bird egg,

but any old egg won't do.

I never had someone [music] to love me.

And now I'm completely alone [music]

cuz somebody blew.

>> What do we do now? Stop the broadcast.

>> No, wait. You can't get away.

>> Oh, hello boys. You got here all right?

Well, he started without me. I call that

mean.

>> I was spuffing a red crested blue,

minding my peas and mine cubes,

[music] thinking about my blue bird's

head.

When they brought me that terrible news,

I screamed, "No, it's not true. Say

you're choking." As mine hopes and mine

dreams has been blank function. They had

pricricked it and blown out the yolk

ink. My beautiful bird egg was sunk.

Somebody blew my blueird egg. My

beautiful egg of blue.

It wasn't a thing you [music] could

borrow or beg. I couldn't lay one.

Could you?

>> From now on, I'll only love beat things.

>> Oh, you you can't go through there. It's

for artist only.

>> Why don't you go out front and enjoy the

show with the audience? The door's right

around the corner.

>> Bye. Be in jail.

>> No, it's no good.

>> What made you so late?

>> Well, it gets late so early now, doesn't

it?

>> [cheering]

>> How do you

Well, here I am again. And this time,

I'd like, if I may, to give you a very,

very slight impression of a famous

broadcast. So, I'd like you, if you

will, to come with me on a flight of

fancy to broadcasting house in London.

Will you come? Will you?

Good.

Excuse me,

[clears throat]

Well, this is a broadcast that starts

off something like this. We may

recognize it.

>> Stop.

Once again, we start the triatical

London being the microphone any

interesting people who are in town or

tonight.

[laughter]

With us in time tonight, we have the

celebrated continental chef, Mr. Soison.

Well, Mr. Sison, I'm perfectly certain

our listeners would be absolutely

delighted if you would tell us what you

think about the meat situation in this

country.

Oh, my poor friend, it is terrible. Only

I arrived yesterday in England. I look

in a butcher shop window. There is a

notice. It says, "No meat today. strong

healthy boy wanted. [clears throat]

[laughter]

Well, tell us, Mrs. What do you think is

the very best meat to eat? Well,

certainly it is very, very simple.

Mutton is the most beautiful meat.

Well, well, then why is it that venison

is more expensive? Ah, my friend, that

is very, very simple to explain. You

see, there is something you call in

English snobbery. You see, people prefer

something that is dear to something that

is sheep.

Didn't get that, did you? Something that

is dear to something she off. Thank you

so much, Mr. Goodbye.

Charing. Yes. Well, now I just have

enough time to sing you a song. an

impression of a man you like very very

much.

That's right.

Singing a new song to Mario's Rainbears.

As a matter of fact, I've had thousands

of requests from a very good friend of

mine to sing the song. I do hope you'll

like it. H. And in the song, I'm going

to attempt not only to sound like Hutch,

but to look like him. And you can help

me if you will because if you

concentrate, I will look like Hutch. So,

concentrate.

Concentrate.

Concentrate.

Concentrate.

[music]

Tomorrow's

[singing] rainbow

may not be seen today. [music]

But you must know [singing]

where there's a will,

there's a way. [music]

Tomorrow's

rainbows

may still be out of sight,

[music]

but they'll be there

short as the

[music]

[cheering]

Thank you. Thank you very much.

Good night.

Terry Thomas has certainly earned the

big hand you've given him. And now

neighbors, here is someone else to whom

I'd like to give a big hand, but I won't

tell you where. She's dizzy. She's

delightful. She's my crazy secretary.

Avil Anger,

[music]

your dress maker certainly has done you

credit.

>> Yes, I know, but I'm going to pay her

sometime. I'm too happy to worry about

money, Mr. Levis. I found something that

every girl dreams of.

Life is so my heart is light and all my

world is filled with sweet delight. No

more searching, no more longing.

[music and singing]

That is the theme of this happy thing.

Why do I smile?

Why am I here all day? Can't you guess

why? My heart's going up bit dot dot

pat.

You can't you silly things. [laughter]

I found a flat

though. It's just a room and [music]

kitchen. It's a very modern block.

There's the meansiest of bathrooms with

a dabel mortis lock. It's exactly what I

dreamed of and I hate so to complain.

But any time you're passing, you may

hear my sad refrain.

Down below they're learning to play THE

TROMBONE. UP ABOVE they're practicing

some ass. In flat 24 there's a song

playing the walls. On my right they're

testing an arrow engine. A man left.

They're having a free for all. And

Ambrose's band is playing a one night

stand in a flat that is just across the

hall.

All night and day. They never stop. How

can you blame me if I'm blowing my top?

Where can I find somebody to [music]

come and carry me on the phone? Then

I'll make it a point to set fire to this

joint.

In the front, they're doing a scene from

Hamlet. In the back, they'll do anything

for a laugh. In flat 61, there's a son

of a gun sawing a lady friend in half.

Number 12 is trying to split the atom.

Number nine is doing the Highland fling

in black 44. They're tearing up the

floor in search of an unexloded thing.

Day after day, they're on the beam. How

can you blame me if I sit down and

scream 323's been taken by Carol

lettuce? 324 never answer the telephone.

Let me live in a tent and I'll shoot the

first gent who calls it home sweet.

29 is running a shooting gallery. 23 is

different flats there are Greek acrobats

Number five is a very polite white

Russian [music]

who's nailing his family in a crate.

There's a honeymoon pair who never goes

anywhere. And flat number 728.

Day after today it's got me beat. What I

would like to know is when do they eat?

Why ho? Why did I tell my mother that I

right in the

call. And they call it they call it.

[music]

[applause] We leave Aangers to go back

to her home sweet home. And we come to a

big moment in the life of one of my

latest radio discoveries. a young lad

from London. He's 69 years young. And

here he is, Fred Krauss. [applause]

Nice to see you, Fred. I hear you have

rather a large family.

>> Yes, Mr. Levvis. 32 grandchildren and

four great grandchildren.

[applause]

>> Little man, you've had a busy day.

Now,

>> what are you going to play on your saw

for us, Fred?

>> Endearing young child, Mr. Lewis.

>> [music]

>> Oh, Mr. Levis, I was just going to tell

you when I was so rudely corrupted. You

know, [music] I took all that trouble to

find Mr. Gilboy's card. What do you

think? He's been taken unexpectedly

dead.

>> How do you know?

>> Well, everybody knows. He was fatally

murdered. Even those detectives suspect.

[music] Look, there they are.

Go wave to them. Don't let them think

you're a snob.

Now, who could have murdered Gilroy?

>> Mr. Livers, of course. Fancy leaving

your fingernails on the gun.

>> Oh, Carol.

[music]

[music]

[music]

I know that monkeyy's at the bottom of

those murders.

>> Oh, really, Mr. Lever? How could a

little monkey kill two great big men?

First Max, then Mr. Gilroy. See, that

only leaves Mr. Skipper, doesn't it?

>> Yes, he's the guy I want to see. [music]

[music]

>> [music]

>> Why, look who's here. You remember Peter

Hobart? [music]

[music]

[music]

>> [applause]

>> You've just heard Fred Grouch of London.

And now, friends, here is someone who

has traveled a long way since we first

introduced her to you 5 years ago. Then

she was just a shy young girl. Today,

she returns from a tour of the Far East

as our guest star, K. Sheldon.

Welcome back to good old London, Kay.

>> Well, thank you, Cal. And I

>> What's the matter, Kay? Are you so

overcome you can't talk?

>> Oh, no, no. I I was just going to say

I'm very glad to be back.

>> You're glad you're happy. You're in the

mood for song. And that's our cue for

music.

[music]

I know [singing] myself too well

to [music] admit that it's over.

[singing]

I know myself too well

to call [music] it a day.

I must realize

I'm pulling no one with my lies.

Each time I [singing] smile.

>> May I have a word with you, Inspector?

>> May I have a word with you, Mr. Davis?

[music]

I [singing] know myself too well [music]

to believe [singing] I'll forget you.

I say that I will,

but I know [music and singing] so well.

>> I know, inspector, and I agree. It looks

bad for me.

>> Looks bad.

>> Do this for me. Try my idea, and you'll

land the murderer. What do you say?

All right. Thanks, Inspector. I'll be

right back.

>> Well, you're not falling for that stuff

again.

>> I say just an affair.

and [music] tell [singing] the world I

don't care.

But if you call, I'll be there.

[singing]

I know myself

too well. [music and singing]

To believe I'll forget you.

I say that I will, but I know so well.

I say just [music] an affair and tell

the [singing] world I don't care [music]

that if you call I'll [music] be there.

I know myself [singing]

too well.

[music]

>> Well, Peter Hobart.

>> Well, what?

>> So, you've got him good. I wasn't

letting him out of my sight. Have you

got the monkeys? Still looking for your

monkey, sir. What have they got to do

with this?

>> Everything. Come on, hand them over,

young man.

>> Who are you?

>> My name is Ryder Harris, and it's going

to give me much pleasure to have you

hanged.

>> Our discovery is a charming young lady

from Halifax, Yorkshire. So, let's give

a big welcome to Yorkshire's Winnie

Barn.

[applause]

>> What is your particular job in life,

Winnie?

>> I'm an artist.

>> What? An artist on the stage?

>> No, I paint and draw pictures. Mr.

Levis.

>> And I can see in your spare time you

play the accordion, too.

>> Yes. And I'd like to play Fight of the

>> And you still deny you were on the scene

just before Gilroyy's body was found?

>> Yes,

>> you do.

>> Yes, he's lying, Inspector. I saw him

there. I haven't let him out of my

sight.

>> That'll take a bit of explaining with

your record. E, Hobart,

>> Gilroy, Taylor, and this man were all

after my monkeys. So, there's a

connection between Gilroyy's death and

Max Taylor's.

>> I'll say there is him.

>> You're crazy.

>> Inspector, this is the man who shot Max

Taylor in my office.

>> I did not tried hard enough to get that

monkey from me yesterday afternoon.

>> Yes, but I didn't get it. And I didn't

go back to your office either.

>> Your name is Hobart.

>> Yes. Peter Hobart.

>> That's the name. All right.

>> What name?

>> When Max Taylor was dying, he told me

who shot him. Oh,

>> it's a lie. He was dead before he hit

the floor.

>> So, you did go back.

Yes, I did. But I can explain what I did

there.

>> Your move, Inspector.

[music]

[music] I'm in the clear. You want to

see a murderer? Look.

[music]

They're not olives, sir. I

>> told you, didn't I?

>> Whoever murdered those two men did so to

get my monkeys. The murderer has those

monkeys now.

>> You're quite right.

>> In your own interest, I think you should

tell us what you know.

All right, Richards. Come on. Wait.

I'll show you who did it. LOOK OUT

QUICK. THERE GOES YOUR MADRA. COME ON,

WILKS. Watch her mother.

>> Well, inspector, looks like I've fallen

for the wrong man.

Sweet little family, aren't they?

Come along.

>> Yes. Carry on. A shot was fired from

behind the curtains and Max dropped. And

then out came carrying a gun. She walked

over to Max and uh picked up the monkey

>> and Gilroy.

>> Inspector, my contact, please.

>> Thank you.

>> What happened to Gilroy?

>> After Max was shot, I went over to her

hotel to tell her what I knew. We made a

date for tonight at Gilroy. We were

going to split, so she said. When I got

there, Gilroy was dead.

>> Oh, Mr. Skippet, you didn't get murdered

after all. That's nice. Now, Mr. Levis

wants to see you.

>> Go on.

>> So, I guess she'd been there first and

now had all three monkeys. So, I came

straight here to stop her going to ride

the Harry's with the monkeys after the

show, collecting all the 60,000.

>> �60,000 for those? Good grief. I've seen

them in all the shops, too. Ba time.

>> Now, take good care of those monkeys.

>> Well, all right.

>> Well, that's all. I hope you're

satisfied. And you? You've killed two

people for nothing. Absolutely nothing.

>> Now, Peter, no false settlement, please.

I know things haven't worked out as I

planned, but you must admit you would

have done exactly the same thing if you

had had the chance. What's more, you

should be grateful to me for not killing

you.

>> K, you couldn't have killed them.

>> Well, I don't like to boast, but I'm a

marvelous shot. Really? Oh, Carol, I am

relieved. I thought they were going to

hang you, and I shouldn't have liked

that. Inspector Kay had no idea what the

monkeys were worth. [laughter]

>> Oh, he's awfully sweet. Naive and sweet.

Of course, I knew about those monkeys. I

only got myself engaged to Max to be

near one of them.

>> Well, then why did you give me the

monkey as a present?

>> For the same reason, poor Simple Max

gave it to me. I don't think I ever

thanked you for getting little speak no

evil through the customs for me, did I?

>> It's no good, Mr. Levis. Come along,

Miss Sheldon. Certainly, inspector.

>> Goodbye, Carol dear. And in future,

[music] remember gloves don't leave

fingerprints.

>> K, you must be mad.

>> Excuse me. I'm on the air.

Please, Mr. Hobart.

A policeman saying please is something I

just can't resist.

>> If you don't want me anymore, can I go?

>> Why, of course, sir.

>> Thanks.

>> [music]

>> You have just heard now is the hour and

I'm afraid this is the minute for me to

sign off. And this is your old pal Carol

Ev saying so long, good luck and happy

listening.
