All language subtitles for 013 - Aos

Superman. 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 bitey
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.

See who it is.

Ace!

I got him. Close the door.

Get a towel.

I got a big deal, Ace.

Big deal.

Who is he, Ace?

A two-bit punk. His name's T-Ball. He's
been shot.

So what? Does he have to come up here to
cash in? Big deal.

Superman.

What's he talking about?

How should I know?

Ace, look.

He said Superman.

This must be Superman's costume.

Well, come in, Candy.

Sorry to get you here in the middle of
the night. Oh, that's all right. Private

detectives and docs will get used to
that.

Have a cigarette? No, no thanks. I don't
use them.

What's the matter? You in trouble?

Yes, Candy.

Someone broke in here tonight while I
was gone.

And they took... Well, they took
something.

I want to find out who it is and get it
back. Get what back? I... I can't tell

you. Huh?

I can't tell you what it was. Why not?

I just can't, Candy. Now, look, I need
your help. Sure, sure. Now, relax, pal.

I've never seen you like this before.

Now, let's start at the beginning.

Somebody broke in here tonight.

That's right. I was at the doctor's
office being examined.

You see, the paper has a new group
insurance plan. That's why it happened

that my... Well, that's how it happened
that this thing was in the closet. What

thing? I told you, Candy. I can't tell
you. What do you expect? Look.

Let's not waste time trying to pump me.

Hey, did you bring your dusting kit?
Sure, sure.

Come on to bed.

Well, what are you in now?

A secret closet.

What have you been hiding in there,
Kent? The family jewel?

Something a lot more valuable to me.

It's empty.

I know. I told you it was stolen.

And I've got to get it back, Candy. I've
got to find out who the thief is.

How am I going to look for something
when I don't know what I'm looking for?

What am I, a swami? Just find the man
that took it. What man? The thief. Look,

if he left his fingerprints on that
panel, we might be able to trace him.

And if you just tell me what he stole, I
might... Candy, please!

Okay.

We gotta get him out of here before the
cops show.

They were gonna show they'd have been
here last night.

I think he's coming through again.

So what? He don't know what he's saying.

What a...

Where'd

you get Superman's costume, T-Ball?

He doesn't know from nothing.

Where'd you get it, T-Ball?

Ace will cut me in, huh?

Sure, Ace will cut you in.

Tell us where you got it.

Standish. Arms apartment.

Standish place.

Which apartment was it? What was the
man's name?

Name?

The name of the man in the apartment
where you found Superman's costume.

Don't know.

Say nothing.

Which apartment was it?

Which apartment was it, T-Ball? You know
the number, don't you?

Number?

What was it?

Five.

Floor.

Fifth floor?

Why don't you let the floor crumb die in
peace?

You shut up.

T-Ball, listen.

Fifth floor.

Five.

Yeah? Yeah?

Five.

He's dead.

Great. Now I've got to get rid of a
stiff.

Ace, listen.

He's at apartment 5H.

Look, Joe, Ace, get a hold of Vince and
come up here right away.

Got a little job for you.

Yeah.

Ace, maybe this is Superman's outfit.

Are you off your nut, too?

Just because a guy's got a costume
hanging in his closet doesn't mean he's

Superman. This was in a secret closet.
He said so.

Yeah, sure.

It don't burn.

So it's fireproof.

We got ways of making a lot of things
fireproof these days.

You can't cut it, neither.

Look, if this was Superman's costume,
he'd be wearing it, wouldn't he?

Maybe he took it off on account of he
wanted to be the other guy.

What are you talking about?

You know, everybody figures Superman is
really two guys.

When he isn't being Superman, he's being
the other guy.

Last night, he was being the other guy.

You know what this is worth if it's him?

Yeah, plenty.

And what are we waiting for?

Where are you going?

I'm going to check that apartment at the
Standish Arms and see who lives there.

Oh, Candy, what'd you find out?

I found out that the guy that rifled
your closet was Johnny Sims.

A sneak thief.

Age 34, 5'6", 140 pounds, brown hair,
brown eyes.

Known as T-Ball.

23 arrests and 3 convictions since 1936.

That's great, Candy. Can you pick him up
for me?

Too late.

He's laying down in the morgue.

They picked him up this morning in a
vacant lot with a bullet in his back.

Hmm. Did they find anything on him? I
don't know.

You wait here.

Where are you going?

The morgue.

I dropped my bag.

Got everything?

I think so.

Is Mr. Fuller in?

Fuller?

Isn't this apartment 5H?

Yeah, but there's no Fuller here.

You mean this isn't Mr. Fuller's
apartment?

No. This is Clark Kent's apartment.

Oh, am I dumb. It's 3H.

I'm sorry I bothered you, Mr. Kent. But
I'm not... I guess I need glasses.

The guy's name is Clark Kent. He's a
newspaper reporter.

Yeah? He don't look like Superman to me,
but I guess when he gets the costume on,

he looks different.

Anyway, I checked with the
superintendent.

He works for the Daily Planet.

That's the guy, baby.

Every time Superman does something, it
breaks into the planet first thing.

We gotta nail it down.

What do you mean?

Gotta be sure.

But you just said yourself it adds up.
He's the guy.

Gotta figure this out.

Must be a way.

Got it, baby.

Hello.

Yeah, Ken?

Anything at the morgue?

No. I've got to think this out, Candy.

Also, I've got to check in back at my
office.

Can you come to the apartment tonight at
8.30?

Sure thing.

Still don't like the whole idea, Ace.

I know what I'm doing.

Supposing he hates Superman.

It's a murder rap.

We can find some other way.

Will you shut up?

You stay here.

If anybody comes, ring the bell three
times.

Okay.

Okay. It's all set. Now, what we got to
do is find out when he gets back here

from the office tonight.

What for?

So I can be waiting downstairs when it
blows.

What time is it?

Twenty after eight.

Called his office at eight o'clock,
didn't you?

Yeah, and they said he just left.

Well, he ought to be along here soon,
then.

You don't look like no Superman to me.
You sure that's him?

It's him.

What's the matter? You got the shakes?

I'll be all right.

I only hope it don't take too long.

It won't take too long after he opens
that closet.

He'll either be dead or we'll be sitting
on top of the world.

You really look big.

I am, Candy. I've never felt like this
before in my life.

Well, okay. Let's sit down and hash this
thing out. Come on.

How much longer are we going to wait,
Ace?

Give him a chance. He's only been up
there a couple of minutes.

Supposing he don't open the closet?

He will when he sees that door's open a
little, Ace.

I don't like this caper.

I don't like it a bit.

Relax, baby. Relax!

For Pete's sake, will you stop wearing
out the rug? You're driving yourself

nuts and me, too.

Look, Kent, I'm your friend, ain't I?
Yes.

You know I'm not hanging around here
just to get a fee. I want to help you.

So let me.

What's this all about? What was wiped
out of that closet?

Well... I can't tell you.

Well, then how in blazes do you expect
me to help you, Kent?

I guess you can't help me after all,
Candy.

I guess no one can.

Let's forget it and go get some dinner.

Okay. Better wash my hands.

Hey, Kent.

Yes?

Did you leave this closet open?

I know.

Well, it's open now. It is.

That's it.

Let's get out of here.

Someone planted a bomb in there.

It was wired to the panel.

Oh, great.

Some playful friends you got.

Any idea which one of them wants to
measure you for a harp and a pair of

wings? I wish I did.

Look, this time the cops are going to
ask questions. Would you mind answering

a couple for me first?

No.

Oh, Candy, look. Keep them out of here
till I can get things cleaned up, will

you? Right.

I wanted to see if there's a newsflash
yet on the explosion.

It ought to say if something happened to
Kent.

There's a better way. Get the phone book
and look up Kent's number for me.

Hello?

Yes, who's calling, please? Can Mr. Kent
speak on the phone, please?

This is Mr. Kent speaking.

Kent?

You didn't get hurt or nothing tonight,
Kent?

Hurt? Well, no, uh, who is this?

How would you like to get back what was
stolen out of your secret closet last

night?

Yeah, I've got it.

Got it hidden in a nice place.

If you want to get it back, come over to
1214 West Street, third floor.

Come alone.

Well, uh, I'm expecting some important
phone calls. Why don't you come over

here?

Wait a minute.

Wants us to come over there. No.

He won't try nothing. We got him over a
barrel.

Okay. We'll be over in 15 minutes.

Candy, you'll have to leave.

Kent, you're crazy.

I'm sorry. I can't help it, Candy.
You'll just have to leave, that's all.

Okay. I'm finished.

Done.

Washed up.

But just remember this.

When you're stretched out on a slab in
the morgue, I won't be able to help you.

Good night.

How are you, buddy? Me? I'm... You
can't. What are you doing down here?

Didn't you think we were coming?

Some people dropped out of the
apartment.

I couldn't get rid of them.

Oh. Well, get in the car. We'll go
someplace else.

How about your place?

Why not?

Funny you drive.

What are we waiting for? Let's get down
to business. Sure. Wait a minute.

How come you pack a gun, Kent?

Well, a reporter sometimes gets himself
in bad spots.

Like this one now.

Oh, yeah?

Yeah. Well, I ain't so sure.

What do you mean?

What was wiped out of your secret closet
last night? You know.

Yeah, I know, but do you? Give it a
name.

We're wasting time.

Give it a name.

Let's stop playing games and get down to
cases.

Okay, we'll stop playing games.

The bullets bounce right off him. Hey,
this guy's Superman, not him.

Is he dead?

No, I just knocked him out so he
wouldn't hear this.

Now talk, and talk fast.

Who else have you told about me, and
where's my costume?

We ain't told nobody yet.

Just her and me now.

Nobody has to know if you'll play ball.

You want to make a deal?

Match, let's sit down and talk turkey.

I don't make deals. Save your breath.

Okay, then we do a little talking.

We tell everyone at Kent to Superman.

Yeah, and that'll put the whammy on your
Superman racket, but... Good.

You aren't going to tell anybody.

How are you going to stop us?

You won't kill us.

Everybody knows that Superman don't kill
people. So how are you going to stop us?

I'll find a way.

You better put some warm clothing on.

We're going places.

You, your girlfriend, and I.

of getting down.

Cabin's very comfortable.

I'll say that you have plenty of wood to
heat it and enough food to eat.

You're not going to leave us here.

Now, wait a minute. You'll have to stay
here until I can think of another way to

keep you from talking.

We won't talk honest.

I don't believe you.

Look, can we give you back your costume?
Who's willing to forget the whole thing?

Ain't we kind?

I can't take the word of would-be
murderers and blackmailers.

I'll be back soon with everything you
need. Now, don't try to escape.

Your lives wouldn't be worth a nickel.

I'll see you soon.

Now, wait a minute. Listen.

Now what are we going to do?

I don't know about you, but I'm getting
out of here.

Are you crazy?

Look down there.

We can make it.

No, Ace, I'm afraid.

What do you want to do, stay up here and
starve to death? He said he was going to

bring us food. Stop kidding yourself.
He's going to bring us nothing.

All right, I'm going down.

You watch where I stop.

And then you follow me.

No, Ace, I can't.

You got her, you hear me? You got her!

All right, all right.

Thank you.

You found what you went after.

That's right.

And the guy who had it was dead.

The guy and the woman, they fell off a
cliff.

Well, what do you know?

They fell off a cliff, did they?

Mm-hmm.

Kent, you must think I'm an awful sap.

Why, Candy?

Why, he asked me.

But any minute you'll be trying to tell
me that I'm J. Edgar Hoover and you're

Superman.

Could be.

That did it.

Goodbye, Candy.

So long, Candy.
