Hello. Yes, this is the foreman speaking. Oh,

Korra. Thanks for calling, Angel, but I have to take a rain check.

Tonight, I'm tied up with a guy who fell so hard for a girl. He never get up again.

For the adventures of the Falcon, starring Lestayman, you met the Falcon first in his best

selling novel. Then you saw him in his thrilling motion picture series.

Now join him on the air when the Falcon solves the case of the invisible thug.

And now the case of the invisible thug.

It's early Sunday in New York when terrified Vera Castell fumbles with the key to her apartment

with shaking fingers. Finally, she locates the keyhole and locks the door.

And hello, Dad.

Here, what's the matter with you? Pete. Pete, Lloyd. Yes, yes, I just saw him.

What's he doing in New York? I don't know, but he's here.

Did he see you? Well, I'm not sure.

Honey, did he see me? No, he is. What do we do?

Who is it? Ask Vera She knows.

It's him. I should get off the door for no friend.

Honey, we've got to get out of here. I was too floored to the street.

That's why I'm going to have to invite myself in there.

Time to break in. Honey, do something. You'll kill us. I know he will.

Pete, please, please, leave us alone.

Well, chicken, baby, I'm not going to touch you. It wouldn't dirty my hands.

Your husband, I come to see you.

Put away the gun, Lloyd. Hey, funny boy.

What do you want?

Yeah, Castro. What do I want?

You run off with my girl. Yes, what do I want?

Well, you don't want me. You just said that.

Yeah, I don't want you. Not now.

Well, I want his payment. And I'm taking it.

We don't have much. You're 11. That's much.

No, Pete. Shut up, Vera. Please, shut up.

All right, Castro. Lloyd, but listen, give me a chance.

Don't.

Oh, my God.

Come on.

Hello, my name's Pete Lloyd. I'm looking for Mike Wearing the detective.

You found him. Oh, good. I want to hire you to do a job for him.

In that case, come in.

Right.

I want to be sure I have the right boy, though.

You are the one they call the fuck, aren't you?

I try to find your office, don't you have one?

Don't even have a trench coat.

I'm not making a mistake hiring you.

You already made a mistake or you wouldn't be needing a detective.

I suppose you'll tell me about it.

But wearing I pick up the paper this morning,

what do you think I say?

I don't know, Theron Warmer.

Says I'm wanted for murder.

For murder?

Well, nothing like starting the day off on a cheery nose.

I used to go with a girl with a pet's break.

They break up and she marries a guy named a Castro.

Well, last night, somebody shoots Castro.

Beerus, that's the girl.

Tells the cops it was me.

How do you like that?

I like it fine, huh?

Well, it brought me a client.

You have an alibi, no doubt.

Well, I wasn't even in town.

That's how come the law hasn't picked me up yet.

Well, I was going to pick you up.

What?

I'm not shielding you.

Oh, no, no, sure, I'm not wearing.

You know, I'll give myself up.

They can't hang this on me.

Well, I wanted to hire you first.

You got a proof I didn't do it.

I suppose I proved you did.

That's like my chances.

No, fair enough.

Now, I work on it.

That fifth-year day in expense.

Yeah, sure, sure.

But I can't figure it out.

Why'd Vera do a thing like this to me?

Why?

Well, maybe she killed Castro.

Thought you'd make a good patty.

Okay, let go.

We got back, weren't you?

Vera wouldn't kill nobody.

That Vera...

You're not going to say...

All right, Chum, but let's call off the dance.

I said, let go!

She didn't do it wearing.

I know Vera.

All right, all right.

You didn't do it.

Vera didn't do it.

Nobody did it.

But the guy's dead.

I'm sorry, worrying.

Yeah, yeah.

It's kind of edgy.

You don't say.

The paper says it happened fast.

Maybe Vera didn't get a good look.

Maybe she really thinks it was me.

I don't know.

That was one way to find out.

Yeah.

Yeah, I'll ask Vera.

Of course I'm sure, Mr. Wearing.

It was Pete Lloyd.

I know it.

There can't be any mistake about it.

I saw the whole thing.

I talked to Pete.

I begged him to listen to reason, but he wouldn't.

He tells me you used to carry a gun.

Well, yes, I had a nice job.

A girl out there, do you know?

Yeah, sure, I know.

You still have the gun?

No, I sold it when I got married.

Well, I told you used to have the gun in the blue urn.

You had in the living room table.

Is it the urn?

I told you that I sold the gun.

No, I didn't.

But you kept the urn, have you married?

Right then.

Well, what's this?

Wait a minute.

I never saw that before.

That's not the gun I used to have.

I mean, you'd be so sure.

You probably even looked at it.

But I don't have the gun anymore.

You have this.

It was in the urn.

Pete must have put it there.

Right under your nose.

I fainted when he shot in it.

You must have put it there while I was unconscious.

Did you tell the police about fainted?

No.

Oh, something new has been added.

Well, it didn't seem important.

I told them what I saw.

That's what mattered.

Mm-hmm.

Look, I'm being framed.

Don't you know that?

Pete hired you just to find that gun.

He was furious when I quit him in marriage.

Bernie Castro, he never got over it.

So he killed Ernie, and he's trying to put the blame on me.

Well, I hate to be on flattering, Ferrer,

but I'm not sold on Pete Lloyd's mad passion for you.

But it's true.

Well, it's convenient for hooking Lloyd.

But I happened to know that instead of crying in his beer

because he was jilted, he's been booking a chick

who has what it takes to make a man forget even you, Angel.

And I know that Pete killed Ernie.

I saw him do it, and he said that it was on account of me.

All right, Ernie.

Oh.

You don't believe me, Kylia?

I don't believe anybody.

In my business, betting on dishonesty is the best part of him.

And you think I killed Ernie?

Did I say that?

Well, what reason would I have?

How about George E. Richards?

What?

Pete Lloyd says he was already interested in Richard.

Pete says.

It seems that he's been making quite a study of me.

I thought he'd just found me.

Now, people knew Pete used to go with you.

They've told him things.

Oh, Mr. Waring can't you see that he's just crazy, jealous?

Any man I ever spoke to was going to make something of.

Yes, I know, George E. Richards, but I'm not interested in him.

He was interested in me, but I didn't want to have anything to do with him.

Oh.

Now, look, I loved Ernie.

And that is the truth.

George E. Richards is just like Pete.

Anything to make a buck.

Gambling, stealing, what not.

Well, I'm sure with that sort, all I mean is trouble.

Well, some people I trouble.

I've had my feel.

And now, if that is all, Mr. Waring.

Yes, for now.

Goodbye,thera.

Goodbye.

I'll show him.

Hello, George E. Richards, please.

The action soon in the triangle murder case.

Pete Lloyd, sweetheart of Vera Castro,

when accused by her of the murder of her husband

surrendered to the police early today.

He was grilled for hours, but the police were unable to shake his story,

and he was released.

It is believed, however, that he had

gave some important information, which, if confirmed, may lead to an arrest.

The nature of...

It'll be confirmed, the Faulkner will say the answer.

Tell me something, Pete.

Yes, you're okay.

What do you want to know?

Did you kill Ernie Castro?

We heard what the man said, didn't you?

Police couldn't shake my story.

He couldn't shake it.

You didn't answer my question.

Stop worrying, they can't pin this on me.

I'm not worried about that.

I just want to know as a blood on my hands.

All right, Kay, look at him.

Look at him.

I just want to know that you still have a case on Vera.

That's all over, all over, I told you.

I wonder.

Maybe.

Come here.

I don't care what you do, Pete.

I don't care how many men you kill, but not for another woman.

Come on, let out.

I told you on through with Vera.

All I want from her is for her to get what's coming to her.

You hate her.

I hate her.

Well, that means you're still interested.

Oh, no, I don't know.

Hello.

Hello, Pete.

Vera.

Yes, your address was in the newspaper.

What did you want?

Pete, I've got to see you.

Can you come over here right away?

Why?

I'll explain when I see you.

It's important.

All right, Vera, I'll be over.

You're not going to see her.

The heat's on.

She's squirming.

I want to see her square.

No, Pete, forget her.

Will you shut up?

Pete, listen to me.

I said shut up.

My, my, let's leave.

Here's a handkerchief.

I'll get out of my way, will you?

Come on, Pete.

Yeah, sure, baby, sure.

And now, Vera.

Why don't you come on over here?

Get down beside me.

Sure, why not?

That's it, Vera.

Turn on the glamour.

See how far I get you.

All right, Pete.

Isn't it enough that you killed Ernie?

Can't you leave me alone?

Leave you alone.

You asked me over.

What was your idea?

I mean the gun.

And hiring Mike Waring.

Telling him there's something between me and Georgie Richards.

You're trying to put the blame on me for Ernie's murder.

Why, you tried to put it on me.

Well, put her make a deal.

If I change my story.

It shouldn't be me.

Oh, all right.

That's a laugh.

Just laugh.

But you had your chance.

Remember that.

I'll remember.

I'll prove you killed Ernie.

Is that a fact?

Because you did kill him.

You did, you did.

Relax.

You killed him.

You're a murderer.

How many times are you going to say that?

I'll tell you, admit it.

What's to admit?

I killed him.

You know that, I know.

But if you expect I'm going to admit it to anyone else,

what are you grinning about?

I was crazy.

You were.

What is it?

Why did you make me?

You got the room.

You got somebody in the other room.

I haven't told you.

How old you are?

Answer me.

The other room.

Maybe the law.

Will you answer me?

Hey, wait up.

I love finding out.

Hey, you'll come back here.

Oh, well, what are you now?

Georgie Richards, huh?

Let's go.

So this is your witness, Vera.

Some witness.

What are you going to do?

What am I going to do?

I'm not going to do anything.

Vera thinks your word's going to help her.

She can't like you.

And for a minute, she had me worried.

Take him along, Pete.

Sure, baby, sure.

I wouldn't think I'm nothing, a pretty boy.

Well, I'm trying to figure it out.

Just what were you trying to pull here, anyway?

Nothing.

Well, that's not what it's going to amount to.

You can bet on that.

And now, back to the adventures of the Polkan.

Twenty minutes have passed, since Pete Lloyd was tricked

by Vera Castro into revealing his guilt

in front of a third party.

Now, in my querying's combination, the department office.

Hello?

Is this the Polkan?

Yes, this is the Polkan speaking.

Well, this is Vera Castro.

Oh, yeah, it seems.

I'm glad you called.

Just got a report on the gun.

It's the murder weapon, all right?

Also, now you're sure I killed Ernie.

I didn't say that.

Not until many words.

Well, it's not important.

What do you want?

An apology.

When I see proof.

I have proof.

How did it prove that Pete Lloyd killed Ernie?

That's why I found.

Oh.

If you will meet me at police headquarters

and happen hour, I'll show it to you.

You will see the cop.

Vera, hello?

Hello?

Who is this?

Me, Mike Wearing.

All right, all right, that's please.

Hello, Mr. Ernie, come on in.

What happened to you, Angel?

I got knocked out.

That proof you were talking about?

Gone.

Surprise.

You don't believe me, do you?

You think I just fake the whole thing?

Well, it does look funny.

It's funny it's the gun in the ear.

Oh, then you realize that was a trap.

I didn't say that.

I just had it look like it.

But you never can tell.

And just what was the proof you were supposed to have?

A tape recording of a conversation between me and Pete Lloyd.

How'd you get it?

Well, I remember that George E. Richard had a tape recorder,

so I called him.

I thought Richard was nothing but trouble.

You weren't going to have anything to do with him.

I needed his machine.

You don't believe me, do you?

You think there's something more to it?

Look, why are you so concerned about what I believe?

I don't know.

All right, anyway, you made a recording.

Yes, I did.

George, he had a microphone under the pillows on the sofa.

I got Pete to admit that he killed her,

and we got it on the tape.

And then when he left, I called you.

But Pete must have figured out that something was wrong.

But he came back, heard me talking to you, and knocked me out.

How about Richard?

What about it?

Was he here when you called me?

No, he'd gone to.

Too bad, he might have seen.

But he was here when he made the recording, he'll tell you.

Yes, I'm sure he will.

But I'd rather hear what Pete Lloyd has to say about it, too.

Let's go, shall we?

What are you going to say to Pete, Mr. Waring?

Oh, just check his story against yours, er.

And look, don't you think it's about time you start calling me Mike?

Could be.

Well, here's his floor.

Except that you're still working, can you?

What's that?

I think that came from Lloyd's apartment.

The door locked?

Yeah, I'm going to break it in.

Wait, wait. Wait a minute. I think someone's coming.

Yeah.

Oh, hello. Why don't you do what happened?

It's me.

Where is he?

Right there.

Oh, you see him.

Oh, Mike.

I see him, Angel.

I don't know.

I wonder if he's scream.

Is he dead?

Yes, there is.

Somebody knife can be very dead.

Mike, don't you think we should have stayed back there with Kay until the police came?

No, I didn't want to waste time.

I'll check back.

Oh, I get in.

Well, what's the hurry? Where are we going?

I see Georgie Richards.

That you wouldn't take his word.

I won't.

Well, then why?

Are you serious?

Mike.

Yeah?

I didn't kill Steve.

You don't believe.

I wish you believed me.

Where does Richards live?

Clive in a apartment.

But I still don't understand.

Look, you bard is recording the machine.

Now it's my turn, that's all.

Well, what do you want it for?

I didn't notice me picked this up at law, as it did to you.

What's that?

The tape.

A tape, whether it's the tape, remains to be seen.

It was lying on the floor.

That might be it.

Well, we'll see.

And if it is, will you help me?

If it is, will you need help?

Well, it'll prove that I didn't kill Ernie, but I may be a few as the police murder.

So will you prove that I didn't kill him?

Do you want to hire me, Angel?

Yes.

Well, I just lost one client, so I'm available.

But considering what happened to that client, maybe you'd better think it over.

Here's Richard's apartment, 205.

Hey, what's going on in there?

Well, it sounded like something fell over.

Yeah, it goes some more.

But you're free for all.

Come on, open up.

What do we do?

Well, I guess I'll have to...

Wait a minute, stop.

I'll just about to break it in.

Yeah.

Anybody coming?

I don't think so.

Maybe they couldn't hear me during the fight.

I'll try again.

I don't know what that was all about.

I wouldn't know.

Seems we're always budding into something.

Oh, all right.

Mike, Mike!

I got it.

We're not going to get him into this chair.

Close the door for it.

All right.

Well, I don't see anybody else in the apartment, Mike.

But look, everything's all upside down.

He's gone, the window.

Who was it, Richard?

I don't know.

Big guy, I never saw him before.

What was he doing here?

When he was searching me a apartment, he had all the doors out.

I came and caught him, and right away he stopped swinging.

They very good in the kitchen, see if there's some ice in the refrigerator.

What's that all about?

You can see your face, John.

It's all out of shape.

And that shine is a honey.

Well, we pat you up, and I want to apply your recording machine, OK?

How long have you killed Ernie?

It's been a fact.

Because you did tell him.

You did.

Relax, mate.

You killed him.

You're a murderer.

How many times are you going to say that?

Until you admit it.

What's to admit?

I killed him.

You know that, I know.

But if you expect that, I'm going to admit it to anyone else.

Well, mate?

What are you grinning about?

Well, I guess it does it.

Now you see that I've been telling the truth.

All right, there are Lloyd killed your husband.

Who killed Lloyd?

Well, that's what you're supposed to find out.

And maybe it's the character who beat up on me.

And maybe so, Richard.

What do you look like?

What is a big guy?

I saw you send.

Blonde straight ahead, you had a pushed in nose.

I'm going.

A rugged joy, looked sort of like a next bug.

Mm-hmm.

And how was he dressed?

We had a grey, pinstripe suit, a blue shirt, a dirty yellow tie, a two-tone shoes.

So I, yeah, his belt buckle.

What about it?

I was initialed the J.H.

J.H., huh?

Well, now we're getting somewhere.

Do you know who it is, Mike?

I think I know where I can find out.

Where?

The phone book.

Yes, I'm not the only private detective in town.

I'll try all the J.H.'s till I land our boy.

Yes, thank you, Mr. Detective.

I think it's worth a try.

This case is tightly knit.

You very K.

I don't see an outsider fitting in, unless he was working for one of you.

So a detective looks like a good bet.

You could be right, Mike.

No, sure, Angel.

I'm so surprised.

Come on, I'll take your home and then I'll go to work on it.

Now back to the adventures of the Falcon.

Ten minutes have passed and the Falcon is fulfilling his promise to drop Vera at her house on his way to solving the case.

How so long there are...

I'll let you know how I make out.

All right, Mike.

Ten minutes have passed, and the falcon is fulfilling his promise to drop Vera at her house on its way to solving the case.

That was so long, Vera. I'll let you know how I make out.

All right, Mike. Good night.

I've been waiting for you to stay. Stop it!

You're right now.

You'll have to tear out mine first.

That's a good idea.

Come on, break it up. Break it up.

She killed me. She killed him, and now I'm going to kill her.

I'm not going to do anything.

Oh, you. You're breaking my arm.

Let go of her. Let go of her.

You all right, Vera?

Good. Now you're OK. You know you were making like a maniac.

I don't help anything.

You don't understand.

I love you.

Sure. Well, everyone do his taste.

Why do you do that?

I don't like to hear you're OK, but I can't let you go.

You calm down.

Come on, K. You better go with me. So long, Vera.

Bye.

Sorry if I heard you, K.

I don't like to ruffle, lady, but you haven't exactly been a lady until now.

Come on.

How do you feel now, Andrew?

Rotten. Thanks.

And belligerent?

No. Tired.

Well, that's an improvement.

Where do we go from here?

You go home. I go to work.

I see.

Yes, and you stay home.

If I don't?

You just be waiting a time.

I'm phoning Vera to keep her door locked until I get back.

Oh, yeah. Going back?

Uh-huh. As soon as I nail J8.

Who's J8?

He's the key to this case.

And you know where to find him?

I know where not to find him.

And under the circumstances, that'll be just as good.

Oh.

Hello, wearing.

Take you to find J8.

I have a lead on him, Richard.

Yes, sir.

I'll be right back.

I can found J8.

I have a lead on him, Richard.

Oh, good!

I'm coming.

Tell me.

Yeah.

If you saw him again, Richard, could you identify him?

Sure.

Maybe I can arrange it.

But I want to be sure I'm not making a mistake.

Now, you said he's a big guy.

軟ly 60.

Mmm.

Ah, how'd you say he was dressed?

Penstriped suit.

Grey?

Thought you said it was brown.

Did I?

I'm pretty sure he did.

They're all remembered.

Oh, well, wait a minute.

Mhmm.

Yeah, that's right.

I was browned.

You should have kept notes, Richard.

What's the one made a mistake?

Yeah, it's a big mistake.

Because you did say great before.

Well, Caitlin, I told you.

Sure.

And you switched when I bluffed.

Because you weren't sure.

Because you weren't describing to age from memory

or describing him off the cuff.

Because there isn't any J.H.

Are you nuts?

No, it's been so rumored that verification is lacking.

You think I busted my face out of shit like this myself?

No.

Why?

I think Pete Lloyd busted it for you.

Yeah.

And you tried to blackmail him.

What are you talking about?

After you and Vera made the tape,

you returned to Vera.

As you can't see, you swiped the tape and tried to blackmail Lloyd with it.

He offered the tape, but when you produced the tape,

you made a grab for it.

There was a fight and you knifed him.

I suppose you can prove that.

Don't come on up, please headquartered.

And I'll show you.

Well, I have a better idea.

Go ahead.

You decide to put up a fight against your chair.

I like your other eye.

Oh, no, you don't.

No, I thought so.

Come on, let's go.

Let's go.

When you drop that knife away, drop it.

All right, all right.

Yeah.

I thought if we got in the fight,

we could pull that knife again.

And have an idea that police lab will find

specks of dried blood on it.

Lloyd's blood.

That's the trouble with playing with knives,

which is you're likely to get stuck.

For a detective who operates out of his hat,

you do all right, Mike.

Oh.

What's the matter?

That's bad enough.

My setup isn't according to Hollywood.

On top of that, you realize the awful,

full-pipe, pull on this particular case?

No, what?

I went all through this case without once, getting knocked out.

That's right.

I took the numbers for you.

Uh-huh.

Well, don't you worry.

I won't breathe it too soon.

That's my girl.

Hey, but I know one way we can keep some being too unorthodox.

What's that a tooth?

Well, right now I can ask you how did you know

that George E. Riches was the murderer.

Oh, well, that business with J.H.

The only time Riches saw that stranger was when they were struggling.

Yet he gave me a perfect description.

Yeah, but what was the purpose of creating the mythical J.A.

anyway?

To explain Riches to Shiner.

Riches killed Lloyd in a fight.

The fight left Marks on him.

He had to explain them away.

So when we arrived at this place,

he stayed the silent effects of battle

and invented J.H.

to account for the condition of this place.

I see.

And I pretended to go along with the gag

to give him time to forget some details.

Well, he did.

And that's it.

But now you see that I didn't have anything to do

with either of the murders.

You didn't want to believe that, sir.

Oh, what gave you that idea?

I could tell by the look in your eyes.

I mean, you can tell when I'm thinking

by just looking in my eyes.

That's right.

Yeah.

Can you tell when I'm thinking now, Angel?

I said it.

I can.

Good night, Mike.
