All language subtitles for 003 - Aos

Faster than a speeding bullet.

More powerful than a locomotive.

Able to leap tall buildings at a single
bound.

Look, up in the sky. It's a bird. It's a
plane.

It's Superman.

Yes, it's Superman.

Strange visitor from another planet who
came to Earth with powers and abilities

far beyond those of mortal men.

Superman, who can change the course of
mighty rivers.

Bend steel in his bare hands.

And who, disguised as Clark Kent,
mild-mannered reporter for a great

metropolitan newspaper, fights a
never-ending battle for truth, justice,

and the American way.

And now, another exciting episode in The
Adventures of Superman.

birthday, Mr. Olsen. Huh?

Oh, thanks.

How did he know it was my birthday?

And how did he know my name? I guess
you're getting to be quite a celebrity.

Oh, this is something you two cooked up.

Still makes a guy feel good.

The guy's birthday only comes once a
year.

Now, there's a sharp observation.

Marco and Freddy, novelty act.

Well, I wonder which one is the train
seal, Marco or Freddy.

I bet it's not a train seal act.

I say they're acrobats. What do you say,
Mr. Kent?

You're both wrong. It's a ventriloquist
act. Pretty good, I understand.

Well, here we go.

Thank you, and good evening, ladies and
gentlemen.

Freddy, say good evening.

What's good about it?

Well, say good evening to the nice
people.

Oh, what's nice about them?

Freddy, you're being difficult. Did you
get up on the wrong side of the bed this

morning? Well, I'll tell you, Marco.

That bed, trouble is, it's full of snow.

What snow?

Nothing. What's new with you?

I understand that you missed school
today.

Why was that?

I, uh, I had a toothache.

Well, did you go to the dentist?

No, why should I?

The one that ate the one he jerked out
yesterday.

Under the apple tree.

What's that?

I said under the old apple tree.

Freddy, this is the third time this week
you've missed school. What's the matter?

Don't you like school?

Oh, I can take it or leave it. I, uh,
take or leave it. Down by the old mill

stream.

Down by the old mill stream.

Down by... Down by the old mill stream.
Missing school so often. No wonder

you're still in the third grade. Why a
boy 14... Eleven and a half.

A boy 14... Eleven and a half.

All right, all right. Eleven and a half.
A boy 11 and a half.

Shouldn't... Ladies and gentlemen,
excuse me.

What happened?

Is that all there is to the act?

Something went wrong.

Clark, I had a funny feeling before he
rushed off that he and the dummy were

talking at the same time. I know that's
impossible, but... Impossible or not,

they were.

Come on, let's go back and see Marco.

I give you all the best lines.

All the best gags.

That isn't good enough.

You have to add words of your own.

What are you trying to do, take over the
act?

Mr. Marco, can I see you in a minute?

Oh, yes, come in.

We're from the Daily Planet.

Oh, you were out hunting? Then you were
hurt? Yes, that's why we'd like to ask

you. Look at him sitting there so
innocently.

In the shade of the old apple tree. Down
by the old mill stream.

Eleven and a half.

He knows he's fourteen. He's been
fourteen for the last ten years.

It wasn't Freddie's fault, Mr. Marko.

Someone else put those words in his
mouth.

Someone else?

But who?

Obviously someone out there in the
theater.

But why would anyone?

Oh, of course, to ruin my act.

Some unscrupulous rival who's jealous of
my success. Can you think of anyone?

Well, there's no real performance to
that long.

Has anything like this ever happened
before?

Yes, about a month ago. We were playing
Porterville.

I thought Freddy was trying to take over
the act. I had a long talk with him

afterwards, and he promised.

Oh, but of course it wasn't Freddy at
all.

But what were the words he added then?

Well, he kept saying he was only 10
years old, and I don't remember the

rest.

And there's no explanation you can think
of?

None at all. It's all very, very
strange.

Well, thank you, Mr. Markle.

If anything like this happens again,
you'll let us know, won't you?

We may not be able to do much, but we
can help a little.

I'll let you know.

All right.

You set first, Chief? Yes, come on in.

Uh, Lois, Kent, do you remember that
business a while back with an armored

car? The one from Greens Incorporated?
Remember it? Are you kidding, Chief? An

armored car with a half a million in
cold cash just doesn't disappear every

day. Got any new leads, Chief?

No, I haven't.

All the police know is what they started
out with.

The car was last seen heading onto the
turnpike for Watsonville.

And never showed up at the other end.
Vanished into thin air. That's about the

size of it. Now, here's what I want.

Hop out to Greens and see what's
happened there since the disappearance.

Maybe there's been a shake-up. Extra
precautions. Security measures.

Things like that.

Talk to Harry Green, the president. Get
pictures.

I want a background yarn for the Sunday
supplement.

Something I can use in two parts.

Right.

Oh, and don't forget.

Give me plenty of pictures.

Okay.

Head just a little higher, Mr. Green.
That's it. Now hold it.

Thank you.

Now for one of you and your secretary,
Mr... Davis. No, no. Come on, Davis. It

doesn't hurt. Now if you'll just stand
there at the corner of the desk and hand

Mr. Green a paper.

That's it. Hold it.

Thank you.

Now, Mr. Gray, those extra precautions
you were telling us about.

Well, since that amazing robbery, we've
worked out a system which is absolutely

foolproof. Neither the guard nor the
driver of the car knows until the very

last minute what time to take off or
what route to follow.

They operate under sealed orders. Sealed
orders. That sounds interesting. There's

a car due to take off right now. I'll
show you how it works.

Have the guard on car 11 report to me
here.

Davis. Get me the envelope for car 11.

Davis and I work out the routes the
night before.

We only make one copy.

Seal it in an envelope and lock the
envelope in my private files.

No one has keys but Davis and myself.

Thank you.

Send him in.

Good morning, Chuck. Morning, sir. Here
are your instructions.

Start at once for the state commercial
bank.

Finish loading at 11.30, then open the
envelope. Is that clear? Yes, sir.

Very well. Take off now.

That does sound like a foolproof scheme.

It is, Mr. Kent.

Absolutely foolproof.

Well, thank you very much for your
kindness.

Thank you.

My loss.

State Commercial Bank.

Okay, Bob, this is it.

We're to go out Apple Tree Road and turn
on to the old mill cutoff.

What is it, Bob?

Breakdown, huh?

Looks phony to me.

Thank you.

Hi, Jim. Morning.

Oh, hey, Mr. Kent. I've been reading
your story about the armored car

robbery.

Clark, where have you been? I've been
looking all over. It's about that story,

Lois. It certainly is. The route of the
armored car. It went out Appletree Road

to the old mill cutoff.

And that's what the dummy said the other
night. Under the Appletree, down by the

old mill stream. Not only that. He said
he was 11 and a half years old. That's

1130, the time the armored car took off
from the bank.

Well, looks like you've both figured it
out. Whoever put those words in the

dummy's mouth was tipping off the crooks
that pulled the job.

Letting them know when and where to do
it. Clark, we've got to go to Henderson

with this. Sure, let's go.

Not you, Jim. You've got some work to
do.

Oh! Jim.

Jeepers.

If you ask me, Inspector, there's
someone behind this ventriloquist

feeding him the information.

How's that again, Kent?

Well, now look.

First, they're the men that actually
pull the job.

They get their instructions through the
ventriloquist.

And that's all they know.

Then there's the ventriloquist himself,
the one who puts the words in the

dummy's mouth.

Now, he gets his instructions, let's
say, over the phone.

And as for the payoff, the ventriloquist
must get his through the mail.

The crooks take theirs from the jobs
through, and as for the rest of it,

well, that's delivered in some
roundabout way to whoever's behind all

this.

In other words, a chain.

None of the parties know each other, so
no one can squeal if anything goes

wrong. That's it.

Well, I'll buy that, Kent.

But what makes you think there is a
second Ben Philquist? Why couldn't Marco

be the one... Marco?

Don't be ridiculous.

He and the dummy were talking at the
same time.

We'll check on him anyway.

In the meantime, I'd better call Harry
Green, tell him we've got some new

leads.

Get me Harry Green.

Leads? I don't care about leads. What I
want is action.

Look, Inspector, it's over a month since
that first disappearance, and what have

you accomplished?

Absolutely nothing.

And now the second robbery. What are you
doing about that?

Insurance? Of course we are insured.

That's not the point.

How long do you think my clients are
going to stand for this?

Look, Inspector, I told you before, I
want action. And if I don't get action

soon, I'll personally call on the
commissioner.

What is it, Davis?

This young man's from the planet. About
those pictures. Oh, yes.

Here are three I've selected I think
will do.

They're for the second installment of
the feature story your paper's running.

Tell Mr. White if those aren't enough.

I'll have our public relations
department send over some more.

Thank you, sir.

Um, Mr. Green.

Yes?

About those robberies, I wouldn't worry
too much if I were you. You see, me and

my associates have just given the police
an important clue. Is that right?

Yes, sir.

What's more, we're working on the case,
too. So, you see, everything will turn

out all right. Well, that's very nice to
know. Thank you very much, Mr., uh...

Olson. James Bartholomew Olson. Well,
thank you, Mr. Olson.

What do you want?

Yes.

Go on, I'm listening.

I want more money.

I take a big risk each time for a measly
thousand dollars while you get a hundred

times that much.

All you do is sit here, make one phone
call, start the whole thing rolling.

What risk do you take? Why should you...
You ain't scaring me none, Davis.

I got enough on you to... Get out!

Oh, now, wait a minute.

Give me the teeth.

Yeah, yeah, quick.

Hello, Chief, this is Jim. I'm down at
Green's office. I just stumbled on

something.

Sure, I got the pictures.

But listen to me, Chief, this is
important.

It might crack the whole case.

What case?

Why, the robberies, the armored cars.

Look, I was just coming out of Mr.
Green's office when I saw... Hello, Jim.

Jim, are you there?

Jim?

What happened?

I don't know.

But I wouldn't be a bit surprised if
that boy's got himself in a jam again.

Lois, get Kent and hop right out there.
I'll get in touch with Green.

Clark, come on. Jim's in trouble at
Green.

Would you sign here, please?

What is it?

Oh, I see.

The men from the safe rental company.
Yeah, we came to pick up that safe

you're not using. Well, how will you get
it down the street?

The freight elevator isn't working and
there are 15 flights of stairs. Don't

worry, mister.

We've got a block and tackle rigged up
on the roof.

All we do is lower out the window.

Come on, Fred.

Oh, Davis, just a minute.

That young man Olsen from the planet,
have you seen him around?

No, I haven't.

Boy, she's heavy.

Take her away.

Holy Toledo, I said it was too heavy.

That other rope will never hold.

This always happens.

Jim's in trouble. Well, it's only two
blocks, Clark, and I can't go through a

red light.

Lois, look.

It's Jim. He's in that safe.

In that safe?

But, Clark, how did...

Jimmy, are you all right? Yeah, I guess
so. My legs are a little weak, that's

all. That was a close one.

And if it hadn't been for Superman,
why... How is it you always manage to

show up at the right time?

That's my job, Miss Lane.

Who was I?

Up there?

Gosh!

Jim, a word of advice.

After this, keep out of other people's
safes.

You bet.

Inspector, that's Jim's story, just the
way it happened.

So that's why you brought me here
tonight.

Now, why couldn't you have told...

Another job?

Tonight?

Davis, you've got your nerve after what
happened this afternoon.

What do you mean, what happened?

Look, Davis, I'll do it. But from now
on, my price is $5,000.

That's right, you heard me, $5,000.

Well, okay.

All you've got to do is tell me what to
say.

Miss Lane, why couldn't you let me know
all this before?

I could have had the whole case wrapped
up by now.

With Davis and the usher in the pokey,
maybe Green would stop breathing down my

neck. He's a friend of the commissioner,
you know.

The usher's going to pass on some more
information tonight.

Oh, is he now?

Yes. Tomorrow there'll be another
robbery.

Another armored car. There'll be no
robbery. I'm putting that guy in right

away. I wouldn't do that if I were you,
Inspector.

Let him go ahead.

And put his words in the dummy's mouth.

Truly, he'll be telling the crooks the
time and the place of the robbery. But

at the same time, he'll be telling us.
And you and your men can set a trap.

No go.

I'm napping that guy right away.

This is your chance to see how the
robbery's done. To find out what they do

with these armored cars.

And the missing guards and drivers.

And maybe even the stolen money.

Thank you, and good evening, ladies and
gentlemen.

Freddy, say good evening.

What's good about it?

All right, Captain.

Let's drink along.

Freddy. This is the third time you've
missed school and played hooky this

week. What's the matter? Don't you like
school?

Oh, I can take it or leave it. I think
I'll leave it. With Uncle Irving.

What's that?

I said with Uncle Irving and Aunt
Magnolia.

Missing school so often, no wonder
you're still in the third grade. Why, a

boy of 14 should... Thirteen and a half.

A boy of 14?

Thirteen and a half.

Ladies and gentlemen, I'm sorry.

Excuse me.

Did you get it, Lois?

Irving Boulevard and Magnolia Street.

Thirteen and a half. That'll be 1.30.
Good.

Irving and Magnolia at 1.30 tomorrow
afternoon.

We'll be there with bells on. And now
our friend the usher. You'll need more

on the usher. I'll get Davis later.

Davis isn't the only one. You want
Green, too.

What are you talking about, Clark?
What's Green got to do with it? Think

he'd rob his own company?

It was Green's voice I heard on the
phone.

Oh, you're crazy.

Okay, I'll prove it to you.

See you later.

Well, there he goes again.

Inspector, where does he disappear to
all the time? I don't know.

Maybe he runs into an alley, takes off
his glasses, and turns into Superman.

Something wrong?

Okay, Green, your plan worked.

Now we can quit playing cat and mouse.

Cat and mouse? I don't know what on
earth you're talking about.

You set me up as a fall guy.

You knew that if anything went wrong
with your plans, the first one the

police would come looking for is me, a
three-time loser.

Your record? Of course I knew about
that, but what the... They came to my

apartment. The police.

But I got away.

They're not getting me yet, Green.

I've got a score to settle first.

Davis, put that gun away. Have you lost
your senses?

I'll take that gun, Davis.

Whoever you are, stay away from here or
I'll shoot.

Don't be a fool, Davis.

You're in the clear now.

Better keep it that way. In the clear,
but I thought... I know what you

thought, Green, but you're all through.
You've given yourself away.

Shoot him, Davis, shoot!

That won't do you any good, Green.

Nothing will.

You have a date with Inspector Henderson
at police headquarters.

He'll be interested to know what half a
million dollars in stolen currency is

doing in your safe.

Still in the original bank wrapper.

Well, Kent, the trap worked. We tailed
the crooks to their hideout, recovered

the armored cars, the missing men, and
the money. All of it, Inspector?

Well, not all. About 200,000.

But that plus the half a million that
Superman brought in last night when he

delivered Green.

Uh, Kent, I guess I owe you an apology.

You were right after all. But how you
knew that... Yes, how did you know it

was Green on the other end of that
phone?

Well, Lois, like I was telling you last
night.

Yes, Henderson speaking.

Oh, you'll have to speak a little
louder.

All right, Clark, if you're so smart,
who's on the other end of the phone now?

The chief. And if we're not back at the
planet in 15 seconds flat, we're both

going to get fired. Now, come on.

Oh, uh, for you, Kent, your boss... Hey!
