Johnny. I'm

>> sorry it took so long to find you,

Professor.

If you're on

the move a lot, my boy.

>> Don't worry. Everything's fixed now for

you and your sister to come to England.

>> Too late. I'm finished.

No, you're not.

>> I know.

A scientist should know when a machine

has run down

the book.

Give it to him

inside.

take them to your brother. He has been

kind to me. So, so has England.

I hope that we'll repay

all my debts.

And now go, please.

>> Will your sister be coming to England?

>> No.

>> Oh, yes.

Go. Go quickly.

Goodbye, professor.

>> Goodbye, Johnny.

>> Goodbye.

>> Hello, Tianne. Yes, Johnny here. Yes,

everything's fine. Better than I

expected.

>> Is Professor Dolman with you? No, I'm

afraid he was too ill to be moved.

>> But I got what I came for. Did you make

the contact?

>> Oh, Johnny, please be careful.

>> Now, don't worry. Everything's going to

be all right.

>> But Johnny, what?

>> I'll explain later. Meet me at the

airport. I'm catching the 8:00 plane.

All right.

>> Okay.

>> Good. Watch yourself.

>> Heat. Heat.

Can you have one of these?

>> No, thank you.

May I have your attention being?

>> We're all passengers.

>> Duke.

>> Hi, Duke.

>> Hi, Barney.

>> New York.

>> What have you been up to in Berley?

>> Nothing. Nothing at all. What's more to

the point? What have you been up to? No

trouble?

>> Trouble? me.

>> Oh, then we'll have to see what we can

dream up.

>> No, don't let's get mixed up in anything

this time. Hey.

>> Oh, I'm sorry. I'm

>> sorry.

>> Well, we're both sorry.

>> This is yours, I believe.

>> Yes. Thank you.

>> Not at all.

You see, this seems to be the trouble.

The strap's broken.

>> I know.

You really ought to get it fixed.

>> I will. Thank you.

>> Thank you.

>> You ready now?

>> Mhm.

>> She's got a boyfriend already.

>> You miss me, honey?

>> Of course I have. I've been very worried

about you.

>> You didn't have to be. I can handle

this.

Johnny, I I don't think we should go

through with it. Oh,

>> look. This is the chance we've been

waiting for. We can make enough money to

get married and go anywhere in the world

you want.

Present from Berlin.

[music]

>> Oh, thank you, darling. It's really

wonderful.

>> Hey, what's this?

[music]

All

right, Matlocks. There we are.

>> Hey, leave that

>> Shut up.

[music]

>> Let it go.

And there's a new restaurant you got to

try, Duke. The cooking. All in good

time. Meanwhile, what's cooking here?

[music]

>> Who's here? Where's his girlfriend?

Pretty bad way.

I've got something to fix it.

>> Come on, fella. Snap out of it. That's

better. Oh, I'll take it easy.

[music]

>> [music]

[music]

>> Deianne Grant, 22, Blandford Muse, Sloan

7407. [clears throat]

>> Grant? Grant? They even named a tomb

after her. You promise not to get mixed

up in anything.

>> Look, Barney, we find a girl's handbag

on the highway in the middle of the

night. The girl disappears and her

boyfriend won't talk about it. Doesn't

that intrigue your intrigue if we don't

pack up all that stuff and take it down

to the police?

>> Barney, not so fast. This is really

interesting.

>> We'll get tangled up in a lot of

trouble.

Hey,

>> what do you know this place?

>> The Crystal Jug Club. Yes. You wouldn't

like it.

>> Oh,

she's got a date there tonight.

>> Who with

she doesn't know it,

but it's going to be me.

>> Oh, here we go again. Here I go. You

stay here and guard all this stuff.

Well, this is a surprise, Duke. It's

real nice to see you again.

>> Hi, Patchy [music] Old P. How's the

fight game?

>> Getting along very nicely, thanks.

Without me. How are things with you?

>> Much the same as usual.

>> Anything I can do to help, do?

>> Uh, Mr. Martin? [music]

>> Yes. I'm looking for Deianne Grant.

>> She's not been in tonight. Not for a

couple of nights, in fact.

>> Good evening.

>> Good evening. Are you the Duke Tom

Martin?

>> Yes. Pat and I are old friends.

>> My name is Web.

>> It's a very great pleasure for my club

to entertain someone so uh notorious.

>> Uh notable, should we say?

>> Thank you.

>> Set up a drink for you, Pat.

>> Right.

>> Is there any message you would like to

leave for Miss Grant?

>> No. I uh found something belonging to

and want to return it.

>> Oh, that's simple. Leave it for me and

I'll see to it personally. I wouldn't

want to trouble you. No trouble. No

thank. Just as you wish. Excuse me.

>> Yes, miss.

>> I'm supposed to meet Deian Grant.

>> She hasn't really denied. [music] Will

you wait

>> for a while? Thanks.

>> Thank you.

Popular girl. Deian Grant. I beg your

pardon?

>> I'm waiting for a tool.

>> I don't think we've met.

>> I'm sure we haven't. I'd have

remembered.

My name is Martin. Tom Martin.

>> I'm Paula Jackson.

>> Since we're waiting together, wouldn't

you like a drink?

>> That's very kind of you. Thanks.

>> What would it be? [music]

>> Sherry.

>> Uh, dry.

>> Of course. Pat dry sherry.

>> Okay.

>> I don't believe I've heard Deian mention

you.

>> No.

>> I couldn't help overhearing just now.

You've uh you'll find something of hers.

>> That's right.

>> Most people wouldn't go to all this

trouble to return it.

>> Maybe not.

>> It's very mysterious.

>> Do you think so?

>> I'm just curious. A woman's privilege.

>> You know how I take it?

>> Yes, we're acquainted.

>> Nice music. Shall we

p

You often come here.

>> No, I love the places.

>> Yeah, so do I. Too many people.

>> You dance? Well,

>> I don't really. It's [music] um just

being with you. Believe me,

>> I don't believe you, but thanks. It's

very good for my morale.

You know, this is really too bad of

Deianne. She doesn't usually break dates

like this.

>> Oh, the um reliable type, huh?

>> Quite the reverse.

>> Well, I'm not going to wait any longer.

>> I'll see you home.

>> Thanks, but it's a short journey.

>> Well, that's a pity. But if I may be

allowed to, I'll still see you home.

[music]

>> Good night, madam.

>> Good night.

>> Good night, Mr. Martin.

>> Good night.

I'm sorry for the trouble Deianne's

given you.

>> That's all right. It's a pleasure.

>> I see her quite often. You could give me

whatever it is you found and I'll return

it for you. Well,

>> there's really no need for that.

>> All right.

What have you found?

something no woman can do without, like

um a mirror.

Do we meet again?

>> Well, you know where I live.

>> Yes. Well, um then, uh good night.

>> Good night.

Hi taxi

miss.

Heat. Heat.

So, we do meet again.

>> What are you doing with Deian's keys?

What's happened to her?

>> Maybe the answer's in there.

Quite a party.

>> Deian.

Deian.

Deian.

She's not here.

>> By the look of things, she didn't want

to go. What's your real connection with

her, Miss Jackson?

>> We're sisters.

>> Why, the phony name?

>> I walk into a club to meet my sister. I

hear a complete stranger asking about

her. What would you do? Exchange

visiting cards or try and find out

what's going on?

>> What kind of a girl is she?

>> She's all right. It's the people she

mixes with.

>> Johnny. Johnny, exactly the wrong man

for her. So, naturally, she falls for

him. I warned her about him. Maybe I

said too much. We had a row. Now, I feel

it's all my fault.

>> Well, take it easy.

>> How can I? She may be involved in in

heaven's knows what. What do you know

about it?

>> On my way to London, I found Johnny

unconscious in his car. There was no

sign of Deianne, but her bag was lying

in the roadway. I brought Johnny round.

He stopped me and drove off.

You had a date with Deianne tonight.

What about

>> She was worried about Johnny. He's one

of these get-rich quick boys. He might

have been up to anything.

>> Why are you so interested?

>> Let's say I'm uh drawn to damsels and

distress.

>> You answer it.

>> Hello.

>> Hello. Is that Judian?

>> Yes. Who's that?

>> Michael, did you meet Johnny this

evening?

>> Yes.

>> Is he with you now?

>> No.

>> I wanted to see him in the morning. If

he phones you, give him a message. Say

we can talk business. He'll know.

>> Who's Michael?

>> He's Johnny's brother. Deian works for

him. She's the secretary. Well,

>> that's a start. Anyway, we'll keep Jon's

appointment tomorrow.

Poland.

>> Good evening.

>> We're invited to your flat. C14, isn't

it?

>> You seem to know so much already. You

don't really need me at all.

>> We need you. All right. for another 5

minutes.

Charmed, I'm sure.

>> Would you care for a drink?

>> Good tal. Just give us the handbag.

>> Okay.

>> And no tricks. No.

Oh, silly off me.

Here it is. Now, all you have to do is

to pick up your car from our garage and

uh go your way in peace.

>> All you have to do is keep your mouth

shut. Stay where you are.

>> [music]

[music]

>> your keys, mister.

>> Just forget all about this and you'll be

all right. See?

>> Yes, I do. Good evening.

Heat. [music]

Heat.

[music]

Heat.

[music]

[music]

[music]

Heat.

[music]

>> [music]

>> Get the bag.

What? Come on, Bounty. The bag. Just a

minute.

I got it. took your time.

[clears throat]

[snorts]

>> I've been smoking too much, Pat. Give me

a soda, will you?

>> Sure.

>> Thanks.

>> I didn't know that you knew Tom Martin.

>> Well, you know how it is, Mr. Web. I met

a lot of people when I was in the fight

game.

>> Sure. Fascinating character, the Duke.

Hey, any idea what work he specializes

in?

>> I wouldn't know.

>> I mean, for instance, what would he want

of uh Deian Grant?

>> He's quite a one for the ladies, is Mr.

Martin.

>> So, it could be just routine his coming

here, wouldn't it?

>> What else, Mr. Web?

>> Well, that's what I was hoping that

you'd know, Pat.

>> As a barman, I only know nearly

everything about everybody.

>> As a club owner, I like to know it all.

>> Good night, Pat.

Good night, sir.

>> Looks as though you haven't lost your

touch.

>> Got to keep your strength up, Duke. This

is brain food.

>> I was hoping it would be something to

eat.

>> Bit early for your girlfriend, isn't it?

>> Maybe she heard about your cooking.

>> Oh, good morning. I am so sorry to call

so early. I'd like a word with Mr.

Martin. What name?

>> Mr. Web.

>> That's all right, Barney. Show him in.

>> Thank you.

>> Good morning, Mr. Martin. I apologize

for calling like this.

>> Please, won't you join me?

>> No, thank you. Perhaps a little coffee,

>> Barney.

>> As you can imagine, this visit is

urgent.

>> Obviously,

>> and private.

>> Oh. Uh, Barney, some more toast.

>> You got some already?

>> Some more toast, Barney.

All right,

sit down. Thank you very much.

>> In deals like this, only the principal

should be involved. Don't you agree?

>> So, you've come around to a deal.

>> Well, you've got the formula. What

choice have I? Now, Mr. Martin, we are

both men of the world. Why be greedy and

fight each other?

>> Why indeed? There should be enough for

two.

>> Hair Dolman solved his little sum so

well that there are plenty of people

ready to pay big and fast for the

answers. As a matter of interest, what

price are your employees offering you?

Talking about money always embarrasses

me. Unless of course it's the right

amount.

>> Yes, I appreciate that. Very well. Who's

hired you then?

>> Come, come, come.

>> Of course. Uh, we might both be working

for the same interest. Wouldn't that be

amusing?

>> Die laughing.

>> Of course. If we don't reach an

agreement, Mr. Martin,

you may. [clears throat]

>> How's Deianne?

>> Ask Johnny Matlock.

>> I'm asking you.

>> Oh, really? Mr. Martin, of what possible

interest is Deian granted to us?

>> Now, this formula is of a very high

market value. Our only interests are to

get together, split the profits, and

then, well, each of us can go away on a

nice long holiday

>> and of course um trust each other.

>> Oh, I trust you.

>> You have to. I have got the formula.

[sighs]

>> Oh, well, think it over. I'm in no hurry

yet.

>> You are, but I'm afraid you'll have to

wait just the same.

Paula.

>> Yes.

>> Please come in.

>> Good morning, Paula. Meet everybody.

That's uh Barney.

>> Hello, Barney.

>> Hello.

>> And this is Mr. Webb. Paula Grant.

>> How do you do?

>> Oh, Deianne, sister. Well, I see the

resemblance, of course. I'm delighted to

meet you. Now, if you'll excuse me. I

look forward to our next meeting, Mr.

Martin.

>> Goodbye.

>> Goodbye.

What was he doing here?

>> He's uh interested in the handbag. And

so am I. Barney, let's have another look

at that bag. Okay.

>> You can help here, Paula. Tell me if

there's anything unusual in the

contents.

>> Well, this is new for a start.

>> Made in Germany. I wonder what else he

brought back this trip.

names.

Names by the dozen. All very neat.

Here's one, though. Scribbled in.

Anyhow, Mallister. Does your sister know

anyone by that name?

>> Not to my knowledge.

>> Hey, but look at this.

>> Left luggage at the airport. Where'd you

find it?

>> Under the piper.

>> Well, things are beginning to shape up.

He got through customs before me, yet

Deianne was waiting for him in the

reception hall when I bumped into her.

>> What could he have checked in at the

airport?

>> We'll soon know when we check. This is

going to be a busy day.

>> I'm not going to the airport now.

>> Whatever it is won't run away as long as

we have this. We better see Mr. Matlock.

>> I haven't had any breakfast yet.

>> No time, Barney. Hide the bag again.

>> [music]

>> Come along, Bonnie.

[music]

>> Juke. Yeah.

>> You won't need me, will you?

>> Why?

>> You passed a cafe up the road.

>> Well, thought I might have a late

breakfast.

>> All right, Bonnie.

[bell]

>> Paula.

>> Morning, Michael. This is Tom Martin.

>> Tom Martin? What is anything wrong? Why

do you say that?

>> I suppose I associate private detectives

with trouble.

>> Your secretary hasn't shown up for work

this morning, has she?

>> Aren't you surprised?

>> No, I sent her to London to do a job for

me.

>> Delivering something?

>> No. Uh, collecting something. Why?

>> She uh disappeared last night.

>> Aren't you being a little melodramatic?

>> Perhaps your brother also isn't to be

found.

Shall we go in here and talk?

Do you um do you specialize in any

particular branch of research, Mr.

Matlock?

>> No. No. We pride ourselves that we can

undertake uh anything.

>> Do you know of any possible reason for

their disappearance?

>> Uh no, but there must be some quite

simple explanation.

>> Why did Johnny go to Germany?

>> I beg of one.

>> What do you know about Dolman and his

formula? Dolman was my best research

worker.

>> Was

>> Yes, I'm afraid so. He's um he's dead.

>> Could you explain?

>> Yes. A few weeks ago, he discovered that

his sister was still alive in the Soviet

zone of Germany. So, naturally, he went

over there to try and bring her out.

When I didn't hear from him, I

>> You sent Johnny over to investigate.

>> Yes. When he got there, he discovered

that Dolman had had a fatal heart

attack. He'd been working very hard. How

do you know all about this? Johnny

phoned me from Berlin

>> and the formula.

>> Really? I don't see what concern this is

of yours.

>> Michael, please. Deian may be in danger.

Tom's only trying to help.

>> I quite appreciate that, Paula. But

>> please.

>> Very well.

Delman and I had been working for some

time on the problem of combating metal

fatigue. As you probably know, that's

one of the last remaining barriers

against long range supersonic flight.

Would have been worth a fortune to this

phone.

But the work was never completed.

I'm afraid the final calculations died

with Dolman

>> there. I don't agree with you. I believe

Dolman completed the calculations before

he died and Johnny brought them back.

>> Well, he would have handed them over to

me by now.

>> Isn't that what you want to see him

about today?

>> Certainly not. Purely a family affair.

>> It's not a family affair any longer.

>> I'm in your hands. I have to go to town

and collect the material that Deianne is

picking up for me. Can I give you a

lift?

>> No thanks. I have my car.

>> Michael, would you drop me, please? I

think I ought to get back to Deian's

just in case she turns up.

>> Surely. Goodbye, Mr. Matlock. I'll see

you soon, Paul.

[music]

>> [music]

>> If Johnny went to all that trouble to

get this formula, why should he leave it

here?

>> This thing's hot, Barney. He's letting

it cool off a little.

>> Hope it's not frozen stiff, that's all.

>> This must be visitors day,

>> huh? Take a look at that car.

>> What do you know? The handbag

collectors.

>> Barney. I may have to use the back door.

Okay.

>> Okay.

Heat. Heat.

[music]

Heat. Heat.

[music]

[music]

[music]

All

>> [music]

>> right, Martin, hand it over.

>> I guess you're just too smart for me. Do

me a favor, will you? Ask Mr. Webb if

this is what he calls trusting each

other.

>> Web? Never heard of him.

You didn't use the back door.

>> Don't worry. Change of plan.

>> Hop in. We'll soon catch him.

>> There's no need to. They've got a nice

camera and we've got a nice roll of

film.

>> Yes.

>> It's me, Barney and Duke Martin.

>> Oh, just a second.

All right. You can come in now.

>> Hello. What do you two want?

>> Yes.

>> Something in a hurry. Always was. It

always will be. I suppose

>> you were right. The first time. How soon

can I get Prince off this?

>> Oh, about an hour.

>> Fine. Okay. If Barney waits.

>> Sure. I can stand looking at him in the

dark.

>> Good. Meet me back at the flat and uh

bring back a new roll of fill.

>> Sure.

>> What can I do?

>> Stand over there in the corner.

over here in the corner.

>> Yes. Can I help you?

>> I'd like to see Mr. Mallister, please.

>> Do you have an appointment?

>> No, but he'll see me.

>> What name, please?

>> Matlock. John Matlock.

Yes. What is it?

>> Mr. John Matlock to see you, sir.

>> Send him in at once.

>> Would you come this way, please?

>> You're not Johnny Matlock. What's the

meaning of this?

>> I um had to see you and the method I

employed seems to have been effective.

>> Had to see me? Who are you?

>> I'm a private investigator. My name is

Martin. Tom Martin. I see.

>> Well, what is it you want?

>> I believe your firm is interested in the

problem of metal fatigue.

>> Well, of course we are, like any other

organization of this type.

>> How interested.

>> What do you mean?

>> You clearly expected Johnny Metlock,

didn't you? To make a deal about

transferring Dolman's formula to your

firm.

>> I fail to see why any private

investigator should be interested in a

perfectly straightforward business

transaction.

>> There's been a lot of bidding for this

formula. Some of it not exactly u legal.

What kind of bid was yours?

>> Absolutely legal. If you must know,

Johnny Matlock approached me on his

brother's behalf. He telephoned me this

morning.

>> This morning? Uh to discuss terms?

>> No. To fix an appointment. The

proposition was outright purchased.

Perfectly simple and straightforward.

>> I'm afraid it's not as simple and

straightforward as it sounds.

>> Why not?

>> Because last night, Michael Madlock,

secretary, was kidnapped and nobody

knows where Johnny is.

I see.

Well, I don't want to be mixed up in

this. Here's the number from which

Johnny Matlo telephoned me this morning.

It's of any help to you.

>> Thank you.

>> Naturally, after what you've told me, I

won't pursue this transaction any

further. I've obliged you for bringing

the facts to my attention.

>> We all make mistakes.

>> If I can be of any further assistance to

you, please let me know. Mr. Martin,

>> I remember that. Thanks. Good day.

>> Good day.

What's so special about this film?

>> I wish I knew.

>> I think I know. You can come out of the

corner now.

Take a look at these.

Mr. Martin, can I talk to you? It's

rather urgent.

>> Come in.

>> Want a drink?

>> Thanks.

I realize there's something I ought to

tell you. It's about Dolman.

He did hand over the formula to Johnny

before he died. Johnny realized its

value and tried to get an outrageous

amount of money from me.

>> I know I should have told you about this

before, but well, it's not the sort of

thing you tell to a complete stranger,

is it?

>> Soda?

>> No, thanks. And for the same reason I

couldn't go to the police.

>> And why are you telling me now?

>> Well, if Johnny and Deanna are in some

sort of danger, I thought you ought to

know all the facts.

Luke,

I've got some real news for you.

>> I know, Barney. Just a minute. Hold it.

>> Did you know that John had been

negotiating elsewhere? Just in case you

didn't meet his price, and that he'd

been smart enough to photograph the

formula before he left Berlin.

>> He took some lovely pictures. Have you

got them?

>> After some difficulty?

>> Difficulty?

>> May I have them, please?

>> Barney, the photographs. You sure now?

>> I [music] think so. There you are. All

delivered, safe and sound.

You better check them. Yes, of course.

[music]

Metal fatigue.

>> Take your hands off.

>> Just a precaution.

Don't get any ideas. We'll make it.

Come in.

>> You

I suppose the party's over. Can I go

now?

>> I only wish I could let you, but uh

Well, what good is a camera without a

film in it? That is rather clever of

Johnny or Martin?

>> Martin? Who's he?

>> Yes, it's just possible you know nothing

about him. Tell me, where's the film? I

don't know what you're talking about.

>> You dropped your handbag last night.

Why?

>> Ask him. He didn't exactly invite me to

get into the car.

>> You got rid of that handbag

deliberately. This camera is a blind.

The formula is in the handbag, isn't it?

>> I hope you're right. You haven't got

that at any rate.

>> No, but I know where to get it and how.

>> But it's still no good to you if you

don't know where the formula is hidden.

>> Precisely. And there's only one man who

can tell me that. Johnny Matlock. Where

is he?

>> I have the faintest idea.

>> I find that very difficult to believe.

>> I can't help that.

>> Oh, maybe you can when you've thought it

over.

>> You can't frighten me.

>> You know, you're in for a long and very

uncomfortable stay. Only you can shorten

it. If you tell me where Matlock is.

>> I don't know where he is, and even if I

did, I wouldn't tell you. Oh, you seem

to forget the police have been informed

by now.

>> No, no, I doubt that very much. for all

sorts of reasons. Oh, well, I'll give

you until tonight. After that, I shall

have to aid your memory. So, think hard,

will you?

This looks like it.

>> Johnny chose a nice hideout. [music]

>> Yeah, he should have known you can check

addresses through phone numbers.

Uh, I'm going abroad. Ah, skipper. What?

Skipper. Oh.

[music]

Heat. Heat.

[music]

>> [music]

>> Heat.

Heat.

[music]

>> [music]

[music]

[music]

>> I'm sorry, B. I didn't know you lived

here.

>> I'm sorry too, Tom, but there's been so

many thieves around lately.

>> Would you call Johnny Matlock a thief?

>> Now wait a minute.

>> I haven't the time. Listen, I need your

help. Information mostly.

>> I don't know anything.

>> Johnny Matlock's using this place as a

hideaway.

>> No, you're wrong.

>> His coat's right there.

>> He just wanted to stay for a couple of

days.

>> Don't stall, Pat. This is serious.

[music]

>> Johnny made me promise not to mention it

to anyone. Look,

>> Champ, Deianne's in danger. I've got to

know where I can find Johnny. I don't

know where he is. That's the truth. I

just sent him my wagon, but I'll contact

you when he comes back.

>> Okay.

[music]

>> I think that's Johnny now. Look, I'll

have a word with him first. Sort of

prepare him.

Not bad,

>> Johnny. Somebody wants to see you.

>> Why you double crosser?

>> Now take it easy. You only want to help.

Johnny, come back.

Bonnie.

Bonnie,

what are you doing down there?

>> Keeping watch.

You know, there's another thing I don't

understand.

You figure that Web's got the girl. Why

don't we go down there and have a

showdown?

>> Because the important thing, Barney, is

to find out who's behind the setup.

>> Oh, I see strategy.

>> No tactics.

Hello,

>> Tom. Is that you? Paula, here. I've got

to see you at once.

>> Take it easy, Paul. What's the matter?

>> Something's happened.

Come over as soon as you can.

>> Hello.

one of us up. We better get down there

right away.

>> No, you stay here. You're on handbag

duty again.

>> Heck, I never have any fun.

Hola.

Hola.

Aren't you with Duke?

>> No, Barney. I'm right here.

>> But

you should be your telephone.

>> What are you talking about?

>> Look, just now you spoke to him on that

telephone. Told him to come over and see

you.

>> I did nothing of the sort. You must have

been dreaming.

>> I don't dream in broad daylight.

>> Where did he go then?

>> Deans.

Wait a minute. Maybe this is a trap. I

better get over there right away. You

could

have got there by now.

[bell]

>> Hello, Duke.

I thought you'd walked into trouble.

Look, Paula is here. She never called

you up. You want to talk to her?

>> Not unless she has something to say to

me.

>> No, nothing special. Just wanted to know

if you made any progress.

>> I may have it there.

>> Huh?

>> Bonnie, entertain the lady. See that she

waits for me. I'll be leaving right

away.

>> Sure.

Watch your step.

You like to read my book while you're

waiting?

>> No, thank you.

>> It's quite good.

>> I'm sure it is.

>> Should I tell you about it? I peaked at

the end.

>> Really?

>> The butler did it.

>> It's always the butler.

>> Would you like to hear some records?

>> No, thank you.

>> We've got both kinds. Bop and

Beethovven.

Sure

[snorts] sounded like you.

>> Voices are deceptive on the telephone.

>> Tom said to entertain you. Don't seem to

be very successful.

>> If you feel you must do something for

me, I'd love some tea.

>> Really?

>> Really?

>> Brewing up.

>> [music]

[bell]

>> Lemon or milk?

>> Lemon, please.

>> Okie dokie.

[music]

Here

[music]

we are. Biscuits and everything.

[music]

>> Now what?

>> Five bottles of whiskey. There's another

dozen that come. Okay.

>> Get the evening papers, man.

>> Sure.

Got it.

>> Nice work, Miss Grant.

>> When shall I hear from you?

>> When everything's checked up.

>> I'll be at the ends.

Open for business, Mr. Web?

>> Always, but not for deals with amateurs.

>> Since when is Paula professional?

>> Well, excuse me.

Don't be a bore, Johnny. Give me that

handbag.

Everybody's using the old tricks today.

Take care of him.

>> [music]

[music]

>> Heat. Heat.

[music]

>> [music]

>> Take it back.

[music]

[music]

Heat up

here.

>> [music]

>> Heat up

here.

Dad.

Oh,

so that's it.

So, that was the deal, was it?

>> Tom, please. I had no choice.

>> Did you really think you could trust a

character like that?

>> I'm only concerned with seeing Deianne

return safe. So, when Web phone

>> I can guess. Get him the handbag and

he'd release Deian.

>> I know it sounds phony. Anyway, I've

done my part. Why is he taking so long

about his?

>> You delivered the right handbag, but the

wrong film.

>> Tom, you must give me the formula. It's

the only way we can save Deian.

>> You can't handle it like that.

>> Well, what am I supposed to do? Stand

around and wait.

>> Look, I haven't got it. That cloak room

ticket was a phony lead. John is the

only one who knows where it is, and he's

in the hospital with a bullet in his

shoulder.

>> What happened? Is he all right? Have you

seen him?

>> No. I hung around hoping to talk to him,

but he hadn't regained consciousness.

They figure he'll be all right.

>> Tom, what are we going to do?

>> There's not much to go on. But there is

one place that might give us a lead.

Do you want to go along with me this

time?

>> Yes.

>> Okay, let's go.

How are you doing?

>> No luck so far. Nothing but club

business here.

>> Hey, Tom. Just a minute. Take a look at

this.

Uh

>> Pat, I need a bottle of Heing 44 table

for

>> Okay, I'll get it for you.

>> H well, none up here. Oh, never mind.

I'll I'll get the set of keys from the

office.

>> No, it's difficult to find that wine.

>> Oh, what do you mean? A set of full up?

>> I said I'll get it.

>> All right, I don't need

>> Oh, sorry. It slipped.

>> It's quite all right, sir.

My fault.

How'd you make out? I don't know. Fair.

Look, this is from a real estate office.

A list of houses for sale. Has Web

bought a house recently? He might have

done. Could have been one of these. All

we have got to do is to find out which

one.

>> Oh, that should be easy. But this time a

night.

Look, there's a night number here.

>> So, it was you who telephoned me this

evening.

>> Have a drink.

>> Straight, Scott.

>> Right, sir.

>> Well, I'm waiting for your proposition.

>> I take it that now your attitude is not

quite so scrupulous. There's no harm in

discussing what you have to offer, is

there?

>> Of course, you realize that since we

last met, the bargain sales over. The

price has gone up.

>> And prepare to discuss that aspect with

the man you represent.

>> Suppose we do then. Shall we go?

Hold on.

>> Mallister, what on earth are you doing

here?

>> Yeah, look, I'm delighted that we're

getting together at last.

>> Getting together? What are you talking

about?

>> Oh, I warned you when you first started

on this Dolman project that the cost of

experimenting would pretty dear exhaust

your reserves.

>> Nothing of the kind. I can assure you we

have ample resources to be

>> What's it got to do with you anyway?

>> You invited me through your agent here

to discuss a merger.

>> Oh, I see. So, this is your doing, Mr.

Martin.

>> Look, you two carry on. I'm just an

uninterested bystander.

>> I'm sorry you've been made such a fool

of, Mallister.

>> Nobody makes a fool out of me. I demand

an explanation.

>> Calm down. Especially you, Mr.

Mallister, in the position you're in.

>> What do you mean by that? You were

pretty clever the first time we met. But

when you came into that club tonight,

>> I had a phone call. I was told I'd be

met there in connection with a business

deal

>> with an unknown contact in a nightclub.

>> I've got where I am by always following

up everything. I seize every

opportunity.

>> Enterprise is one thing. Strongarmmed

business is something else.

>> Are you accusing me of kidnapping?

>> Not you. Webb did that.

>> Webb? Who's he?

>> The owner of the club you came to.

>> Your theories are a little extravagant,

Mr. Martin.

>> Are they? As I see, someone hired Webb

to do the dirty work, but as soon as he

found out the real value of the

commodity, he decided to work for

himself. All I want to know is which one

of you two characters hired him in the

first place.

>> Are you insinuating that I should hire a

thug to regain my own property?

>> Didn't have much choice, did you? It was

either that or years of work wasted.

>> That's absurd, Mr. Martin.

>> Aren't you going to answer it?

>> Yes. Um, yes, of course.

Hello.

>> Now, I'm afraid you have the wrong

number. Oh,

>> no, they haven't, Mr. Matlock. They have

the right number, haven't they? Go on,

talk.

Hello.

Yes, I a mistake. I'm sorry.

Oh, yes.

Oh, good.

No, you can't do that. I tell you, she

doesn't know anything.

>> Well, what is the truth?

>> I must have been crazy.

I just wanted to teach Johnny a lesson.

I hired Web only to get her luggage. I

didn't intend that he should kidnap

Deianne.

>> Do you know where she's being held?

>> No, I don't. Webb always phones me here.

I've tried to get him to give up, but

it's no use.

>> There's still just a chance. With any

luck, we should have traced his

whereabouts by now. You see, um, Web has

the film, but he doesn't know it. [bell]

>> Hello. Yes, J. She's right here.

>> Hello.

Yes, Tom. I found the address.

>> Good. You and Barney, meet me at

Matlocks, please.

>> Right. Right away. Come on, Barney.

Night, Pat.

>> Night, miss.

Very very interesting, Mr. Martin. And

now perhaps you will apologize for all

those insinuations you made.

>> I am sorry, Mr. McAllister, but you see

in my business also, one has to seize

every opportunity.

>> But where is this formula?

>> Patience, Barney. You see,

>> we turn up here.

>> Borner, take the car, drive it over to

those trees, and park it there. We're

going to try and send out here.

>> Thanks.

>> Don't thank us. We haven't done it yet.

>> All right, Mr. Web. This is it. The

handbag, please.

Thank you.

This is what I was after. The compact.

>> It's only me, Duke. Girls are on their

way.

>> Good. You can do the conjuring trick.

Take a look at that lipstick.

Break it in two.

Well, I'll be

This is it. All right.

I should have hired you in the first

place. I don't think you're going to be

hiring anyone for a while. The police

are on the way.

>> Okay, Martin. Drop it on. Drop it.

The film. Come on.

Oh, thanks for your help.

don't have to. I'm afraid I had to

repeat myself, but uh this is what we

were both after.

>> I realize I've caused you a lot of

trouble, Mr. Mart.

>> That's all right.

>> Lucky to get out of it no worse than

this.

>> Yes. Remember that for the future. And

uh may I have an invitation to the

wedding? Name the first one Juke.

>> Barney. Sorry.

>> Really? Barney. See you later, dear.

>> Okay, Paula. Bye.

>> Bye.
