- 4:10No, no, no, no, no, you hate me,
- 4:13don't you, Templar. This is a homicide bureau. I am up to
- 4:16the cleft of my rugged chin and work. I got maniacs confessing to murders
- 4:20that never happened. I got murderers caught in the act. Who say who
- 4:24me? And no? No? I got Templar. Yes, Lieutenant,
- 4:30Templar, you got something to say? Say it anyone for Badminton Templar.
- 4:33Okay, Lieutenant, I just want some information. He's the newspapers, Templar.
- 4:38They whip up the crimewaves. I don't. Well, then, what
- 4:40do journalism's juvenile delinquentab today about events in the city of Littleton today? You
- 4:45don't know. I couldn't even get well. Stay happy, go back to
- 4:46bed, Lieutenant. I'll write a letter to the time. Okay, Templar,
- 4:50have it your way. You ever hear of a band leader named Terry
- 4:54Richard? Of course, you mean the one they call the real gone guy.
- 4:57I hope to hold your half. No, Templar, he's real gone
- 5:00all right, so gone, he's dead. He was strangled. Oh well,
- 5:02thank you, lieutenant for your first exclusion. Look if you're figuring about
- 5:05him, Templar, I wouldn't now you know me. You're Lieutenant Ruggles,
- 5:10old old meat head. Well he is now chief of police at Littleton.
- 5:14You better stay out of his way. I wouldn't dream of getting in his
- 5:16way, or would I. I'm not getting Templar. Terry Richards was a
- 5:19real big name. Ruggles wants this one for himself. You get in his
- 5:23way? Have you so deep in the pokey they'll be feeding you with a
- 5:25pea shooter rip? Hey on second thought? Is that lieutenant? Yeah,
- 5:30Tampler, did someone fight your bubblegum this morning? Yaodbye? How don't sneeze
- 5:35into the breeze. I'd like to go backstage, please, misterr door man.
- 5:51It's possible to get there if your cultural development is at a certain level.
- 5:57Well, I'm fond of Montreal, I collect manna. I am fond
- 6:00of portraits of those men who will become our presidents. I am especially cheered
- 6:04by portraits of Lincoln, done of course on fine paper in black bordered and
- 6:09shaded in hues and shades of green, which one finds so cool and comfortable.
- 6:14Your taste is admirable. It happened that I here. You are a
- 6:17perfect specimen of past grain. Thank you so much. Oh, mister Templar,
- 6:21you know me. You expected me. Miss Gray hoped for you,
- 6:25as she described you, till it cost me five dollars. Nothing ventured,
- 6:28nothing gained. And miss Gray is in her dressing room, first corridor to
- 6:30you're wreck and first daughter the left door. Thank you. They tell me
- 6:34something. Is this the same Shirley Gray who sings pallid so wonderfully? The
- 6:40same? But she sings them no more? Merlo roleyelbouki. You swallowed something
- 6:46bomp. That's what the great Terry Richards played. Oh, I gather you
- 6:49were not a fan of the late mister Richards. The man who knocked him
- 6:54off was a hero. I see. Miss Gray is the only nice person
- 6:57in the band. Take care of her, will you you think she needs
- 7:00taking care of. There's a killer running around, mister Templar. Of course
- 7:03he's just after another musician. That's all right. The chilla is gonna hate
- 7:08you in the morning. He wasn't there a first corridor to You're right,
- 7:11first daughter left. Mister Templer's great, Oh you frightened me. You're Simon
- 7:30Templar, Secretary Shirley Gray fanclub Cell three, Group two currently underground. A
- 7:35pot chorte, Oh, mister Templar, I'm so glad. Who is Sammy?
- 7:40He's what do you mean? Well, all the way down here,
- 7:43I've been asking myself why would Shirley Gray call me? And after calling,
- 7:46why would she hang up just because a man named Sammy entered the room?
- 7:50You see, I'm just the old curious one. I want you to do
- 7:54one thing for me. Find out who kills Terry Richards. That's the job
- 7:58for the police, isn't he Well, they might the wrong person, Sammy,
- 8:01for instance. They might not find out in time. Somebody else might
- 8:03get killed. The door man seems to have had the same thought. What
- 8:07brings it on? No one knows why Terry was killed. Nobody liked him,
- 8:11but nobody hated him enough to kill him. This is almost the work
- 8:15of a maniac. There was no reason for it. You mean, no
- 8:16one was ambitious, jealous, frustrated. We don't talk like that. You're
- 8:20hiding something from Simon. Please don't choke. I found Terry's body. I
- 8:26called the police and they said he must have been strangled with a south thin
- 8:28cord. But well, well they're wrong about it and about everything else.
- 8:33He was strangled with the family. This is Simon Templar, the Saint Simon
- 8:41alone, Shirley, get out. I'm happy to know you, too,
- 8:46friendly one. Look, Templar, We're being held in this off beat berg
- 8:48and we can't get out. I'm spending all my time at the jail answering
- 8:52the silly questions of these cornwall coups, and now you. I've got rehearsals.
- 8:56I don't know when to get out. Oh no, Sammy, No,
- 8:58not rehearsals already truly hasn't even been Yes, Sammy, why are you
- 9:01so anxious to get in rehearsal. We've got a contract for a concert tour.
- 9:07That's what we were doing in this corn palace, warming up for the
- 9:09tour. The band's got to be in shape in a week of the contract
- 9:11is canceled. No contract, no tour, no tour, no band,
- 9:15no band. We're on a panet, you see. No, Just where
- 9:18do you fit in? I like money, I eat it cheaper than food
- 9:22these days. Besides, if we make out the agency is giving me the
- 9:24band, I got it coming. It's like Terry had what happened coming to
- 9:28him? Oh, Sammy, Well, Terry was a slave, and you
- 9:31know what you are, a man of grace and charm, Sammy. Send
- 9:33him away, surely, get him out of here, gentle psychotic? Isn't
- 9:39he? As we jazz lovers say, this routine is murder? I'll talk
- 9:43to him. Will you wait for me? Simon? Need you as I
- 10:00come in? Mister templand of course, Hey, how did you know me?
- 10:03I talked Shirley into calling you. My name is Dick Carver. You're
- 10:07with the band. All I do is beat these loudy drums. You ever
- 10:09hear that joke? To the point of nase here? Who killed Terry Richards?
- 10:13I don't know. The cops thought Shirley might have because she found him,
- 10:16but it wasn't Shirley. I had to call you so you could prove
- 10:18it with someone else. What was she doing in his dressing room? Was
- 10:22it her habit to go there? The carvi this, dear boy, if
- 10:24you want me to have it? Okay, okay? Layout for four bars
- 10:26and I'll give you a score. I understood Terry Richards. I didn't like
- 10:30him any more than anybody else, but I did understand him. I've been
- 10:33with him since the year one. Sammy has two only he played a three
- 10:35year job with the army. Sammy called Terry a blob. Yeah. Before
- 10:39the war, Sammy and Terry started this band. Terry founded at Samuel arranged
- 10:41and conducted rehearsals. A man sent him greetings, and he went into the
- 10:45paratroops and came back top them hard. I thought he'd killed Terry when he
- 10:48found out Terry had cut in for one hundred percent of the band. I
- 10:50remember his hands were just sady. Did he come back with Terry? Terry
- 10:54was up here mac number one. He was willing to pay for Sammy's talent
- 10:56and pay good. That's the only way could keep any buddy, including Shirley
- 11:01cool Kid. It wasn't enough. She had to work for him. She
- 11:03had to go along with him a little way if she wanted her job,
- 11:05and she did. Why why she used to be the biggest name on radio
- 11:09with our Terry Richards? How did she ever become a band singer? Canarry
- 11:13is a hard to figure Maybe that's the question you've got to answer. Terry
- 11:18Richards seems to have been a dismal kind of snail. Oh. I admired
- 11:20him, mister Temple, for one reason. He knew how to compete,
- 11:24fight, cheat, steel, hit below the belt, but stay on top.
- 11:28He had one philosophy and had fit this world. Great hooray from me
- 11:31and nuts to you. If I could have had that, I'd have done
- 11:33all right. I'd have been bigger than Terry Richards. But I haven't got
- 11:37it. I admired the man who had. This has been an enchanting recital
- 11:41of the foibles of humanity. But who killed Terry Richards? I wish you'd
- 11:45find out? Why are you so anxiously? Because with our Kerry, this
- 11:48band can still go places. Oh we needed him like a Metanese common Lombardo.
- 11:52Now Samuel'll be in charge, don't you see, And he'll give everybody
- 11:54a chance, even me. What do you mean? But Kerry wouldn't give
- 11:58any of us a chance to shine? We always had the feat to his
- 12:00guitar, but we got a real gone arrangement of temptation, just me on
- 12:03temps and Shirley on voice, Real gone, real gone but terry. Because
- 12:07I've heard of progressive music as a sample, I'd say it hasn't gone quite
- 12:09far enough. It's still in the range of hearing and a mister template.
- 12:13But Sureley, come on, let's go the green room. When Shirley out
- 12:22of the way called the coppery. Oh it's a templar. Oh are you
- 12:35all right, Simon? Oh yes, Angel, I'll be all right.
- 12:39Hey, I thought you were should just faint a template? Did you call
- 12:43the police? Dick? Between giving her smelling salts and bathing your head?
- 12:46I haven't had much of a chance. What is they say? And there?
- 12:48Who done it? Happened? If somebody slugged you from behind and pushed
- 12:52me through the door and slammed it to my neck, there must have been
- 12:54a rabbit punch. Do you want a doctor, Simon? Dear hut,
- 12:56I want an answer, By the way, what did happen to you?
- 13:01I argued with Sammy for a while, and then I came over here and
- 13:03I picked up Sammy's that tone this was wrapped around him. Wait did I
- 13:07stand up? Oh? That floor was so comfortable. What is this thing?
- 13:13It's an e string for a guitar. Huh, it's what was used
- 13:15to kill Terry? Probably from his own guitar. Probably someone had a sense
- 13:18of poetic justice. A guitarist string for a guitarist. Let me see that
- 13:22thing? Wow, wasn't I pulled it tight? It cut into my hands.
- 13:28He Wait a minute, did you know Terry was killed with an e
- 13:31stream Shirley, Well, it was beside him when I found him. Between
- 13:33the time I called the police and the time they got here, someone had
- 13:37taken it. Sairly nice read Emily Post. Has it that when one is
- 13:39in possession of evidence or information about evidence, one tells the cops, or
- 13:43one suffers one does. I was afraid? Did you see? You are
- 13:48more afraid? Now? This thing is a warning for Sammy, for you,
- 13:50for everybody. By the way, where is Sammy? Why didn't he
- 13:54come running when he heard his scream? The same reason? I know she
- 13:56was in the green room and not his dressing room. His room is soundful.
- 14:00I moved that we adjourned to Sammy's little fell and thing. No,
- 14:03surely you're not going to be stubborn. All right, let's go. Something
- 14:20tells me we've got to break it down, Oh Sammy, all right,
- 14:30Dick, Now the pops the cop. We take care of Sammy. I
- 14:33hope, mister tan. I have answered the questions of the police. I
- 14:46have answered the questions of my wife. Now you want me to answer your
- 14:50question. My friend is doorman of this house of culture. You are in
- 14:54a most enviable position. You see who goes and who comes? Now let
- 14:58me review the bidding the famous Terry Litley, infamistery Richard. Nonetheless, he
- 15:03was killed a bumbling murderer's toad came within a minute of killing family. To
- 15:07day the same whart brain didiot delivered a rabbit punch to my neck. I
- 15:11only want to be sure it was no outside for it. Do you follow
- 15:15me as the animal anc one, as the acrovans, mister Templar. But
- 15:18I must repeat, no insidious force has come through these bottles unless that force
- 15:22be you. And you should hear Chief ruggles on the subject of you police.
- 15:28You don't like the police, mister Templar. The police were put on
- 15:31his earth for one reason, so that so called musicians could arise in the
- 15:33morning with the assurance that somewhere on Earth there was some one lower on the
- 15:37scale of human beings. You could be centered for that. Tell me.
- 15:41Are you here all the time, mister Templar, There are matters one does
- 15:46not discuss with just any stranger. Oh oh, oh, to say,
- 15:52I'm sure. I I simply want to learn who could be a murderer,
- 15:56That's all. It's a simple want. Some people want food. I want
- 15:58a murderer. Some people want a new apartment. I want a sneaky,
- 16:02th soft pedal. Zagao could walk though softly. It would be unheard,
- 16:07and it would slug me from behind. Even I could do that, mister
- 16:12Templar. I wear sneakers. They're relaxing. I could come upon you so
- 16:19quietly, or you could. I'll give a thought. Thank you so very
- 16:25much. It was nothing, mister Temple, I know nothing. You're getting
- 16:41better, Sammy Templar, You're still wrong. You're not happy with me,
- 16:45Sammy, Sammy, please, if it weren't for mister Temple, you might
- 16:48be dead. All he hadn't shown up, it would not have happened.
- 16:52He got a hold of something and scared somebody. That's whom did I frighten?
- 16:55Sammy? You? What do you mean? It occurs to me that
- 16:57if I were a person so well and so frightened, I could hold a
- 17:00wire about my neck and induce unconsciousness. You've got rocks in your head template,
- 17:07Why don't you leave it alone? Let's a copish as somebody slug me
- 17:08Sammy, and I'm very sensitive about such things. Why don't you two stop
- 17:12fighting? Missus sirius, somebody else is trying to get hurt? Yes,
- 17:15and I hear by nominate Simon Temple. I must decline because of the pressive
- 17:18business. Look instead of us arguing like this, why don't you go hurt?
- 17:23Oh great, now he's going to run the band too. No,
- 17:26but at least you be out of my hair for a while. Sammy has
- 17:32an abrupt personality. Well, Shirley, we're alone, Simon. Are you
- 17:37getting anywhere? The answer to that would have to come from your own lovely
- 17:41lists. You're very sweet, Sherry. To see you as you are now,
- 17:44as well as they say in the soap operas, it does something to
- 17:47me. Suppose whoever it is gets away with it. Suppose he succeeds next
- 17:52time, kill Sammy or me. Tell me, Shirley, did you kill
- 17:55Terry? What did you say? So? Did you kill Terry and try
- 17:59to kill Sammy? I'm very rude, My, analyst tells me, no,
- 18:03never mind my analyst. I hate him. You didn't answer my question.
- 18:07No, I didn't kill Terry, he satisfied eminently. Tell me something
- 18:11shedding. A couple of years ago, you were going great guns as a
- 18:15soloist. I remember reading something about a big recording contract. I had your
- 18:18recording of April in Paris. It was one of the best things I ever
- 18:21heard. I'm still getting royalties on it. How is it that you came
- 18:23to work with a band? What happened that you gave up your contracts in
- 18:27your big career? Why do you stay with this band? Is my career
- 18:32pertinent? I don't know, but I do know that we're going to have
- 18:36this clear it up very soon? Do you really think so? M I've
- 18:38got something right on the tip of my mind. Can't quite get hold of
- 18:42it, but I will. And if we can clear it up in time
- 18:45and Sammy has the band in shape, you'll be hitting the road. So
- 18:48you had better be in shape. But why don't you go to your dressing
- 18:52now on this? Huh? Go on here? Do you well? All
- 18:55right? If you say so, I'll walk with you. Is that a
- 19:00idea of Dick's about temptation going to work out. I don't know, Simon,
- 19:06I'm not too crazy about it, but maybe it will, I hope.
- 19:08So for Dick's sake, Dick, Yes, you know, every time
- 19:11Sammy wrote an arrangement so Dick would have some breaks, Terry would insist that
- 19:15it'd be rewritten for his guitar before Dick would just sit up and keep a
- 19:18rhythm, as he said, all he does is play those losty drums.
- 19:22Yes, it might be a break for Dick. Is that he's a nice
- 19:26seller. He's got something coming. I should start, Well, this is
- 19:30where I drop off. What are you going to do? Oh? I
- 19:33don't know, catch a murderer? Maybe hello Dick? Oh hello, Mi's
- 19:52the template? Oh no, no, don't stop playing. Go right ahead
- 19:56there, I'll just pass the time of day. I have any luck,
- 20:00yell, I'm about to step out of the store window and call for Philip
- 20:03Marlowe. Well, if there's anything I can do, or any of the
- 20:06fellas for that matter, I know they'll help. I thought they were all
- 20:07happy to see you, or laid my stroke go that was the impression I
- 20:11had. Now Sammy might give you that impression, or that'd wacked up doorkeeper
- 20:15out there. I don't think anybody likes to see somebody murdered, especially when
- 20:18they know the killer is still in the loose. Hmm. But you fellas
- 20:21seem to be taking it in stride. Some people, Yeah, some people
- 20:23know me. I'm worried it would take it easy now. Hey, you
- 20:29certainly need a lot of paraffin in your trade. Yeah, symbols, TIMPs,
- 20:33bongo, tambourine. What are these things? Oh? These these are
- 20:37plays? What are they for? Set a rhythms with Latin American stuff?
- 20:41Hey, let me show you see. Very simple, Yes, indeed,
- 20:45very simple. Yeah, this is quite an array of stuff for one who
- 20:49just beats the drum. That's all I do, beat these lousy drums.
- 20:55And I have to do some more snooping, dick, I'll see you're out.
- 20:56Okay, it's a stamping, lousy drum. Hey, what's joddya busting
- 21:10in here? Anny, I've got two questions for you if you're interested in
- 21:12finding Terry Richards killing. Number One, you were in the paratroops, Yes,
- 21:18I was in the parrot Number two, did you make patrols behind the
- 21:21lines where you had to kill a man with your own hands? You scu
- 21:26I asked your question. Did you my answer? I'll get out of here,
- 21:30and if I set eyes on you again, I'll kill me. Sammy,
- 21:33get out. You know, I think i'd feel much better if you'd
- 21:48take my head in your lap and baize my face. I hadn't feel much.
- 21:52Oh Shimon, stop it. You know you shouldn't have just barged in
- 21:56on Sammy like that. He has a temperance he doesn't like to be reminded
- 22:00of. Well, it just should have been more diplomatic. I was diplomacy,
- 22:06my dear girl, is not always a matter of kid gloves. Oh
- 22:08Simon, why don't you give it up? I'm awfully sorry I got you
- 22:11into this. I'm not at all. It's well worth everything just to sit
- 22:15here and have your sympathy and Sully Simon, what's the matter that's dressful around
- 22:22the neck of it in east? Oh Simon? I think I know what
- 22:26it means now, all of it? Why me? Do I know something?
- 22:30What is it? No, you don't know anything, but you've done
- 22:33something. Yes, yes, figure, Oh Simon, Oh cry tell me?
- 22:40Did Sammy get someone to take Terry's place with the guitar? No good,
- 22:45just to take care of that for him. But I beckon, you're
- 22:47going to make sure the public address system is warmed up in the wings so
- 22:51I can use it in third you're going to tell Sammy and Dick you want
- 22:55to run through temptation. Oh no, Simon, I couldn't make like that,
- 22:57tired old gad. You know the show must go on. It's one
- 23:02of the most important things in your life, and I want you to do
- 23:04just as I say. I'm afraid you're not going to have a life to
- 23:07have important things happening. O kin, I take it once and then forget
- 23:21it. No com stot feel Dick? Take you ready? Yeah? Okay,
- 23:26now remember what? Yes? Its uk, I was alone. I
- 23:45should have known you were temptation. You smat luring my ho was gone you
- 24:08okay? Nice? True as yours? What you gotta wait for me?
- 24:30Killing days are overstone all over the whole fin the music you plays and loust
- 24:37up your band? How could I possibly do it? Diamond, I'll clip
- 24:40you could. I don't understand. We understand what you're talking about. Sammy.
- 24:45If you will call the cops, I'll tell Dick a little story about
- 24:48a man who was very ambitious who wanted to be big and important, like
- 24:52Terry Richards, who didn't want anybody to get in the way of his ambitions,
- 24:56who admired selfishness and ruthlessness. It's about the Torry well tell, isn't
- 25:00it. Dick? Oh, I was pretty loudly drums. Oh, gods,
- 25:06loudly drumb. But why did he try to kill me? Simon,
- 25:19dear? Just remain as you are, is Simon? You should know?
- 25:25Oh? I do know he killed Terry because, as you said, Terry
- 25:27took all the licks to say that Dick thought belonged to him. Then he
- 25:33got real ambitious. He wanted to be like Crooper, had his own band,
- 25:36and he tried to kill Fanny then he could fight for the leadership of
- 25:38a band that was already great. Oh, it's so awful, wonderful Simon.
- 25:45You Oh, but when did you first suspect that you were wonderful?
- 25:49No, that Vick was the killer. I was puzzled that someone had used
- 25:53a guitar string for the purpose of strangling Terry Richards. It cuts into the
- 25:57hands and there's no unless it's wound around the hands, and that is no
- 26:03wire for strangulation. Then I came across the Klavie's and Dick's drums, and
- 26:08everything fell into place. I see, you know, I remember when Sammy
- 26:12got back from the army and we had a party, and he got drunk
- 26:15and told us how they used to kill the enemy with wire, the ends
- 26:18of which were tied to batons to give them. What did you say,
- 26:21purchase? Sure, you're making Simon sound anticlimactic, and that's not in the
- 26:26contract. Oh I'm sorry, Simon. You really did a good job.
- 26:30But I know here's you are idea? Oh Simon, Well, in any
- 26:34event, Dick remembered Sammy's tales of the parachops. He tied the ends of
- 26:38the guitar strings to the clavie's he used for Latin American rhythms, and then
- 26:42he approached his victims from the rear, looped the wire over their heads and
- 26:47curtains. Oh, how terrible. It was very clever. When you screamed
- 26:51and fainted and we came to you, he stepped behind me and slugged me.
- 26:53Then he ran to make his pass it killing Sammy. He wasn't clever
- 26:56enough to take his time and make it thorough. I think it's so Grucius.
- 27:00I think it's wonderful, Oh, Simon, you cal I do.
- 27:03The more I explain, the more you shive and the more you ship it,
- 27:06the closer you're coming on. And it's what the full? Will you
- 27:10please listen to me for a moment. No, dear, you're upset.
- 27:12You'll be going back to the city now, you know. I think that
- 27:15months the chief ruggles will release all of you. Why don't you have dinner
- 27:19at my place, just you and me? You like my place. I
- 27:22have a fron collection of modern arts, especially Picasso. You're inviting me to
- 27:27come up and see your Picasso, my dear, when one is charming as
- 27:32you, who comes to my place? It's not to see the Picasso's but
- 27:34the handwriting on the wall. What are you doing with my wife's templar?
- 27:40My wife? Oh how depressing, Simon. That's what I've been trying to
- 27:45tell you. You asked why I stayed with his band and gave up my
- 27:48other career. Well, it's because Sammy and I have been secretly married for
- 27:51six months. Oh no, that's why I called you. I was afraid
- 27:53when the police found out, they'd think that Sammy killed Terry because of jealous
- 27:57I would still like to know, Templar, what were doing with your armor
- 28:00on my wife? I oh, I was consoling her. I've got some
- 28:07consolations for you, as emmy. I wouldn't advise violence. I'm ready to
- 28:11turn violence. You've got me all wrong. Gee, keep huggles, Sammy.
- 28:15How are you want? You're still looking for template? What else here?
- 28:18He is? Oh? No, I want to talk to you.
- 28:23Take goodbye to the nice man. Surely, goodbye Simon and nice week.
- 28:29We'll meet again, although my dead body, I'll try to arrange it.
- 28:42You have been listening to another adventure of the Saints, the robin Hood of

- 29:52back. Well, we're actually at the point in the series where I have
- 29:57not heard most of the rest of the the episodes. I'll be hearing them
- 30:00for the first time with the rest of you. Uh. The uh call
- 30:06for Philip Marlowe reference that the Saint made in the course of the mystery was
- 30:11actually a reference to a commercials. Famous radio and early television commercials featured a
- 30:18bellboy named Johnny calling out call for Philip Morris as an advertisement for the cigarette
- 30:26company. And you'll hear that on a variety of programs that Philip Morris sponsored,
- 30:32and so called for Philip Marlowe is just kind of a play with that.
