Meet the Red Bull Dragambury Emerging Card. It's one of the many new drinks out now. Who knew ice cold drinks could be the slowest drink. Try the ball only at Wittermost. The Best The lives of Harry Lyme, the fabulous stories of the immortal caricature originally created in the motion picture of the third man with Zither music by Anton Kerra.

I always say money isn't everything. That's what I say. I mean it too. In fact I've always considered a generous basis for a deal. I take the money and you take the rest. What's that you don't agree? I listen to this story, it all began on a boat. There was a girl on the altar, crying. My doctor always tells me there's nothing like a quiet sea-void picture on your feet. My experience is just the reverse. Besides the sea, I always makes me sick.

And now, fortune-welts as Harry Lyme, the third man in Chercher, La Gène. It all began on a slow boat to China. It's like a song when it was out of music. Only a couple of days I was sad, it was just one of a while. I'd be honoured and I'd be getting off, but not yet. Not the middle of a Pacific, and I was so bored. I was almost tempted to try. That's how come I paid so much attention to that couple. It's just another married couple. He wasn't much face-through. K.O. thought all you could remember, but his young wife had a very attractive manor, among her other assets. We caught each other's eye once and twice, but it didn't seem to bother him much except in a nice way. We got acquainted the next night. They were always crawling, a couple of us, two little things. And I missed a pale face. I don't know why.

Whenever I saw them, they were in the midst of some kind of squabble. And now, for Ships bar, I missed a pale face down to where he was picked himself up and walked off, leaving over there. And you've got to say one thing for me. I let him get out the door. Then I counted a fast tree and strolled over to her table. May I join you? I wish you would. How are you thinking? I am water. I will, yeah. I'm water in a scotch. Yes. At last. At last? What? What? Who is girl? We meet. Tell me, Dan, I have the gym been giving me the one sober. Not so lightly. We've wasted a day and a half of our lives. You say the right thing, Mr. R. That's just get acquainted. Names can come later. You know what? What? You say the right thing. You said that before. It's worth repeating. Her name is a matter of fact. I can just keep the record straight with Anne. Anne, Brissy, maybe I should say. She was blonde. Kind of likes to drink. I didn't discourage her.

But the time we got up on the boat back, Anne, it was beginning to feel the motion of the ship. How are you? How are you feeling? Good to see you. You're feeling fine. I'm fine. That was good. You know, there's people holding on, but... All right, with me, Dan. Anne. That's something to confess to you. But I guess what it is. You're not married. That guy you're fighting with. Oh, no. I'm married for a more right. You wouldn't think so, but... No. I wanted to confess something else. I've had too much to drink, Anne. How about you? Oh, I've had too much to drink. I've had too much to drink. I've had too much to drink. I've had too much to drink. I've had too much to drink. I've had too much to drink. I've had too much to drink. No, no, no. I've had too much to drink. What do you mean? I've had too much to drink. What do you mean? I've had too much to drink. What do you mean? You mean? It's more days before when I don't know what will happen today. I just hope I'm around when it does, Harry. What do you mean? I just hope I'm around when it does, Harry. Yeah. Mine are romantic. Occasionally, honey.

Occasionally. When I have the time. I just hope me do think I was in there. You did it, then. I still do, you're calling all of the both. You should have known your word. You think that after a guy spends five years in jail. I'm in jail. Yes, I shouldn't have told you that should I have. I wouldn't accept that I have to have... You got it, I... So, my friends aren't wearing that moon snudge in me again. I love your kisser. Don't tell me your trouble's ahead. That's just be friends, hmm? You feel a friend? You should want to listen to me. You've got a point. Why shouldn't I tell you? More or nice. Joe just got out. We're heading for Honolulu to try to find his old pal at Jameson. I pulled a job together. Joe was caught, but Jameson got away with 75,000 dollars in jewels. That's very interesting. Keep it to yourself, Harry. Oh sure. Joe is very suspicious and he can be mean. My middle name is Mom. Joe will find him. He had him traced to Honolulu.

Jameson was always a sucker for warm weather. Five years, long time, Jameson must have cashed in his jewels. Oh, oh, they're so hot. And Jameson is a very cautious character. Want to see picture of him? A Jameson. Sure. Open my face. I'm not only looked at the picture of that Jameson. I also transferred it from purpose to my pocket. She's probably frightened because of what she'd spilled and won a bump into me. So I didn't see her for the rest of the trip. I don't tell you the truth. I didn't much care. I wasn't bored anymore. I had an interest in life. I didn't waste any time taking in the sights. I knew Joe would risk it, I wasn't wasting any of it. Then, first come, first served. No? No?

I never see the end face before. I was taking a look. I look at it. Your father did not know? Sure. Sure. You never even might buy the show? Sure, no. Well? No, I can't. What I said to so many people in face, I remember much and much before I knew face. I checked with a lot of how many people in places that I had Jameson didn't get around much at times. I was getting to wonder if this was the wild goose chase. The fist night in my search, I was resting my tired legs in my hotel room and thinking this pond would give us $75,000 worth of jewels. When... Come in. Harry, line. That's right. I guess you know me. I'm not a senior, but I wouldn't say I know you. Stop playing games, kiddo. I said I don't. I'm Joe Brissy. The husband of the baby got tight with her in the boat. So, have a mind to get tight with wives, which husband are you?

I mean, which wife which yours? A wise guy, yeah. Listen to you. I carry a gun and I'm a nervous guy. Interesting. It's not important to why it's so mean. Asking around for Jameson, I heard somebody else was asking too. And I know Anne talks too much when she drinks too much. So, you twisted her on? In a manner, it's speaking. See this? This is a gun proper. You'll stop up with Fred Jameson. I wonder why these little slugs will get near way. I see. I do us some dope on Jameson. Cut me in, I'll tell you. I won't cut you in. You'll tell me. Only if you cut me in. There's a silence around this gun line. And I'm comfortable free. One? Two? Really? What should be? Okay. I know that. Yesterday he was seen surfboard riding in front of the Royal Hawaiian Hotel. You lied through your teeth, kiddo. Jameson has a bad ticker. He can no more ride a surfboard than you can pull a fast one on me. Now listen here, Mr. Lyme. Remember what I said. Lay off or you'll be a man with a bullet hole through his head.

Showbiz is remarked that Jameson had a bad heart again, an idea. And again, shaking hospitals and doctors and then, one afternoon. Are you the nurse in charge? Yes, what can I do for you? If you take a look at my badge. Be out. Well, check the answer. I'm only going to have this photograph to go by. Here it is. I know who he is. A mom died here several months ago. Part of him. He left a wife and stepped off. Do you know what they lived? Yes, or at least we probably have a record of their address. They run a rooming house on King Street. If you'll wait a month without getting for you. You. I'm looking for a room and I happen to see a sign outside. Won't you skip him? Oh, thank you. My mother does all the venting. I'll have to see what's available. I'm disappointed in you.

What do you mean? I was hoping to speak pigeon English. I'm going to like it. I apologize. But four years of the university I have knocked you out of me. Well, occasionally I get bored even with charming pigeon English. I like yours. Are you in the island for the King? Not for my health. You don't look sick. No, not. I want to go on being healthy. How long are you staying? All the time. Oh. Then why do you let me take you to dinner every night, every day? See, you don't let any grass go on your feet. Well, life is short, it's the longest. Am I right? My mother would like you. She's your mother, I'd like her to wish you. On the island of Hawaii. All family is having a law, and I'm joining them tomorrow. Absolutely, wow. I forgot you and you here. It's a feast. Well, no, isn't Mona a law erupting on a wife? Yes, but all family doesn't leave me the world. You're part of why, not you? My father was scotch. That makes me a happa holla. That means house and house. Well, if every girl was a happa holla,

all I can say is what a stunning world we'd have. Take it easy. Or I might have said to you in the beginning. If I say something, would you be angry? I'll say it anyway. You are the most beautiful girl I've ever seen. Are you engaged? No. Married? No. Boyfriend? Yes, but no. And those earrings you're wearing, they don't spoil the scenery either. Oh, they're only imitation. Naturally, naturally. I wouldn't expect them to be rubies and anything like that. They do cost a few dollars. You don't say it. When our little friends have the introduce myself, I'm Harry Lyne. I'm Moana Bren. Please meet you. Likewise. Moana. Will you name Dr. Yes, Moana Loh and that's right. I'll give me a volcano every time. But I'll take you and leave Moana Loh as the sightsee is. But Moana Loh is much more exciting than I am. No, impossible. Let me pay you a compliment too. Bending you a room is a positive delight. Don't answer it. Business is business. And fun. I still haven't accepted your invitation to dinner.

What can I do for you? I want to run a rule. Come in, please. Sure. If you two jump in with just we here, I'll go upstairs and see what we have. You didn't take my warning, serious. The digit, did you kiddo? Can I have a man look for a room? When he's living in a hotel? Who expensive? Funny that you should just happen to pick a family gem. It was married too. Yeah, I see you have all the information. All of you know. And now here's where your information won't do you a bit of good. I'd put that gun away if I were you, Mr. Brissy. But you ain't mean, Mr. Lyme. That girl's a good look at you. I'll take care of her. In any time? So long. Forever, kiddo. This is a rooming house. People are around. I don't hear them. They won't hear me. So I want to tell you there's a silence around this gun. Good. Good night, don't. Why are you up there? What's the worry? What are you doing at the time, Mr. Lyme? It happens to be here, is I?

I just removed the problem against his will. Get up, Mr. Brissy. What happened? As soon as you left this character began mumbling to himself before I knew it, he'd whipped up his gun for it to his head. Mr. Wondering what he wanted to commit suicide for? You're a fool. Don't you know this is much to worry about down there? As if he was a kid. You're a fool. Don't you know this is much to worry about down there? As if he was a kid. Now beat it before I call the cops. Next time you think you have trouble, ask the first person you meet about theirs. Who had she had? It's the madam, won't it? I don't know. Just think I'm done. He can be all right. Tell you what, let's have lunch together. Do I mind style? All right. Is there room for me? I want to wash up. Room 210. Upstairs to the left. How much? Two dollars a day. I get three, I'm happy. Two. But I'll order next to do that. There are nothing more than... Yes. Yes. Yes, that look of fear out of your eyes. It's over now. Besides.

The K-1 The K-1 The K-1 Horsen Wells returns in just a moment as the third man. The K-1 The K-1 The K-1 The K-1

The K-1 The K-1 The K-1 The K-1 The K-1 The K-1 I get an through the apartment fast. No more on it. I rushed outside just a while to see I get in the cab with a suitcase and drive on. She probably suspected something as long as she had what I was sure was in her grip I didn't care. I could have it if it wasn't

the cab around but finally. Hey, can't face! The water runs and will without paper speech. You're going Mr. Hang on. Is there a boat leaving for a wire? I don't know, the flying fish. But I don't think you'll catch him. I think he gone already. Maybe not. One's next boat tomorrow. We pulled up the key of the flying fish with a hundred jams away and thinking of steam. I could swim but not that fast. You'll just miss him. A boat is a her. You want to go to Hawaii? That's a general idea. The cab doesn't ride on water does it? Airplane goes there soon. Okay, Buster, to the airports. The plane wasn't leaving for a few hours but it'd still be the flying fish to a wire with plenty of time to spare. I spent the afternoon being careful and staying outside. Then one of the time it was Joe Briss again. The plane was crowded but I wanted to see more and a low on eruption. I sat back in my seat, watched the blue green ocean below.

Someone up front moved and there was something about his movement. I was first off the plane managed to get Joe to slip my atticard and drove to another place where I waited for the flying fish to dock. Sure enough, Moana was on it. She was met by handsome a wild woman, probably a mother. And Joe's off and I followed her to the safe distance. When we arrived at the beach, a family in the wild was in full swing. Won't we have lunch together? I was angry with you but then I said forgive and forget. So I forget. But I couldn't forget. So here I am. You came just to be. What else would I come here for? I'm sorry I ran off like that Harry.

That man got me all I'm strong and I wanted to be near my foot. That's understandable. So will you forgive me again please? I forgive you again without a please. Are we waiting for it? Are you to take me in your arms? That's the easiest thing I've ever done in all my life. The easiest by far. Harry. Yes baby. Don't talk so much. I guess. I could really like you. It's okay, I mean. Why? What happened if you really went for me? Moana? Meet a friend of mine uncle. Then you are welcome sir. And even if you are not a friend of Moana's but a friend of the people you are welcome to, what's the heck you come on. We will give you to eat. So many good things. Peep, red in palm leaves and roasted in the ground. Fooosh, fruit and look in doha. That's what we call liquor. I accept your invitation but first I want to go back to Evo and get some alcohol.

I'll bring to you. But that is not necessary. We have too much. No. I have to go better though. I'd really like to bring you. So don't you want me to feel good? All right. Oh, I think so. Get in, I'll drive you. Oh, I don't want to take you away from your first Moana. I don't wear all the liquor stores though I know. Well I can ask, I don't know. Besides I want to be with you. Come on get in. You should have told instead of winding your car. It was too anxious to see you. Always be that way for me Harry. Oh. Thank you. You can admit that. How about car? Yeah, but man at the wheel. It's a man who can't shoot himself. So I can't accept that. Step on it. What you doing here? Maybe as it is from infallible mean. I've been telling all these people. And the same to you. Don't hang on. I'm only doing it under him as he would do under me. No hold on. There's a strong feeling in me.

We won't be following this anymore. Flap tire. I think we should report him tomorrow. Tonight let's enjoy ourselves. Hey you just passed the liquor store. Did I? Where are you going? I don't need any more honey. Stop the car. No. Stop it I said. All right let's hear it. I have the idea. My 50s in the back of this car is the idea honey. Oh. Say you saw me put it there. Yeah. And the man who followed us. He was after the same thing. When you were both part of my house. I didn't believe your story. Why not? It was a good story. You said you were a tourist. A tourist doesn't carry a gun. Moana, the trouble with you is. You have a suspicious nature. Hey. Hey where are you going? To look at the moon. There's a beautiful view on the cliff here.

Come out of the car honey. Okay honey. I'm as romantic as the next I guess. But listen honey. When do you stand about the jewels? Oh honey. I don't care about the jewels. Look at the moon. It's a great moon kid. I don't know how I saw that. I wanted a 75,000 box worth of. Hey. Hey that's a break off. The car's moving. Honey. Don't fly the stop. You can't. You can't. Honey. It's a problem with rocks or the beans. Phew. That was a close one. I almost went over with it. But you managed to save this. At the risk of my life I grabbed at the back seat and this is what I came up with. A half bottle of scotch. Hey you didn't tell me about the scotch. You didn't tell me about the jewels. Not at all about the Pacific Ocean. That's all right. The car's probably insured. Oh the car's probably insured.

So everything's fine isn't it? What about the jewels? We can't just stand here. All right let's go. More on a honey. Honey 75,000 dollars of your money. It was as good as money. Just fell into the sea. But it wasn't mine anymore. You think. That's sure, sure. But we could have worked something out. It's down here. Here, mix in me and stop writing. The trouble with you is you haven't been long enough on these islands. What happens if we stay? See the paws of the moon, Harry? Rocking on the water? Those are the real jewels. A lot more real than those other things. You know what I think? I think you slipped that break intention. I think you're just crazy enough to do it. I hate it then. Really I did. My stepfather only told my mother about some the day before he died. And then we would have turned him in except that we were afraid. We didn't know what to do. We didn't want to bring shame on his head. He had been good to it.

When you stepped on it was a crook, honey. Notting me it's hot. In his heart he was a good man. Like you. Oh, Harry, I wanted that to go on like in each other. That's why I let the car slide off the cliff. Honey 75,000 dollars wouldn't make me like you any less. But you. Okay. I haven't been on the island for a long enough. Don't you think you want to keep me, Harry? Either that or you went after the car. Oh, Harry. How self-worthish. The first, give me some of that scotch. I need it. If you try to keep me. No, but it cheer me up after the shock of losing all that dough. Harry, look at the moon. Look at me. You're the real thing, honey. Not money. Money can't buy you health or happiness. No, but I like to have it around so I can choose the type of misery that's most agreeable to me.

Okay, I know. I know when I'm elected. I know. I know. Harry line returns in just a moment.

And now, Harry line. You know, sometimes when I see the moon light reflected on the scene, find myself thinking about the moon. She believes that gold is where you find it. That's one thing, I'm looking for both agree. The only difference is that I've made a career out of looking for it in the most unlikely places.
