2:42
The Adventure of the Undecided Bride. The Adventures of Frank Race starting Paul Dubove
2:50
with Tony Barretts Mark Dunaman. The war changed many things, the face of
3:02
the earth and the people on it. Before the war, Frank Race worked
3:07
as an attorney, but he traded his law books for the Cloak and Dagger
3:09
of the Oss and when it was over, his former life was over too.
3:15
Adventure had become his business, The Adventures of Frank Race, and now
3:35
we joined Frank Race for the adventure of the undecided bride. Welshare it?
3:44
It is prepared by my favorite chef at the Waldorff is a weaver of lovely
3:47
dreams. At least it is for me. Having supt on that delicacy,
3:52
I was sleeping peacefully watching the gyrations of an Oriental dancer conjured up to perform
3:57
in my private dream world her dance in my We're both interrupted by a peasant
4:00
who has little taste for the finer things in life. Hey right, oh,
4:05
Mark, what is that racket? What are you doing up in the
4:09
kitchen? Oh? I am I doing the man once or all after poisoning
4:14
me with a Welsh rabbit. Well, get the runny bike, cabinet,
4:17
a soda and his joint. I'm buying. Well, do it quietly.
4:19
You just broke up the best floor show since Siegfield. Yeah, well that's
4:23
fire. But at least I am going to open these wind doesn't get me
4:26
some air. I'm on fire. It sounded like a shot, Mark,
4:32
Yeah, it's straight Come here quick. Look, Oh, don't plays the
4:39
street lampsy. There were three of them in the otherwise deserted street. Two
4:43
of them were men, sliding carefully along the wall of a building, and
4:46
their objective. Framed in white and huddled in the doorway was a woman in
4:48
a bridle gown with an automatic in her hand and terror written in her upturned
4:53
face. Hey, we better get down here fast, right, she's in
4:55
trouble. No time for that. I have a gun and drawer here to
4:58
get and set the rusher. We'll stop that right now. I will hang
5:04
around. Now we can go down and get the girl's pointing. The gun
5:09
is way right there. How you hit no? But I find the idea
5:15
of an armed bride on the loose in Manhattan at two am very interesting.
5:19
Jump into some clothes and let's go the street. When we reached it was
5:29
deserted. But it was ASSENTI that the bride had no carbone on hand,
5:32
and she'd hardly have accepted a lift from her pursuers. Her best bet would
5:36
be to get off the street as soon as possible, And there were two
5:39
logical choices, the subway or an all night cafeteria two blocks farther up.
5:44
I sent Mark to check the cafeteria, and I went under the Marquee down
5:47
to the subway platform. The station was empty at first glance, but then
5:56
the mirror and a penny weighing scale caught my eye. Halfway down the platform,
6:00
the girl on the bridle gown was hidden from me by a post.
6:02
I could see part of the white dress reflected in the glass, and she
6:05
saw me at the same moment that posting out, whoever you are? You
6:09
took pot shots at me? Baby? That wasn't nice. I was shooting
6:11
at your playmates. How do I know that? I'll show your credentials if
6:15
you'll give me a chance. I'm not You've got a gun and a reasonably
6:18
good eye. I can't do any damage with my hands up. Let's talk
6:23
it over. Hi, stand there? How come you? She came from
6:30
behind the post and in that white bridle gown. She could have made an
6:33
organist play the wedding march in bebop, but the gun still in her hand
6:38
made you wonder whether it was her ambition to be a bride or a widow.
6:41
I suppose you're going to tell me you aren't working for Brent, for
6:44
Red the general playmates who are following you. No, why did you come
6:46
after me? Because I thought you were in trouble? H right now that
6:50
I'm safe, and I like to be safe and the low. Sorry,
6:55
but I feel attached to you. I think i'll stick. What's your interesting?
6:58
I collect drives who seemed to be with rooms and spend their wedding nights
7:00
running around the streets having gun battles. I could shoot you and leave you
7:03
here. You could, and you might, so I think i'd better take
7:10
that gun. That's better. It comes the train. We'll ride up town
7:15
Aways, just in case any of your followers are still in the neighborhood.
7:18
And on the way we can talk. All right, you win. You
7:21
have the gun. Now I have something else for you. I have taken
7:25
the gun from her at the drink of the platform. When I back to
7:27
the train, she shoveled the off balance. I went down to the railers.
7:30
As the train moved into the station, I rolled and pit myself light
7:32
under the concrete ledges. The wheels came to a stop not three inches from
7:35
my face. I knew better than to move, so I waited until the
7:45
train pulled out. As it roared from the station into the dock of the
7:49
tunnel, I stood up and looked after it rained in the rear window with
7:54
the lovely white face of the roughest dride of the season. Hello, friend,
8:07
Holy cow, what happened to you? I had a little experience in
8:11
the subway. Oh why don't you paid the time fare? You're too tall?
8:15
A snake under the toyin style our lady and white tried to dress me
8:18
in black permanently. She pushed me under a train, all of which Mike
8:22
and had happened if you came back to the subway when you didn't find her
8:24
here? Yeah, so how could I figure? You couldn't handle it?
8:26
Dame? I needed a hamboy go with some ketchup to drown out that tasted
8:31
out Welsh rabbit. I've got to find out who that girl is, all
8:33
right? So why didn't you ask me? How would you know? I
8:37
read the papers a pretty kissers on page one at a Sunrise edition. Hey,
8:43
look see that there? It is Society Coyle missus wedding and the guy
8:50
is the joe she was supposed to marry yesterday afternoon. Oh his name is
8:52
Brent, William Brent, and her name is Marnie Costa. So she didn't
8:58
marry a man named Brent, and one of the men chasing her was named
9:01
Brent. Hey eid in something else fits. He must have been a guy
9:07
your wing, that's right. And he called the guy named Red the help
9:11
of That must have been the best man here here child's Red Warden. It
9:16
was North American of forty six foot. Poor paulsy No, I don't see
9:20
Mark when I'm going to We'll have a busy day tomorrow paying calls. First,
9:31
I checked with the police and found that the gun I had taken from
9:33
Marne Coster was not her own. It was registered to Brent, an odd
9:37
gift from a bridegroom, particularly for a wedding that failed to come off.
9:41
Among other things, I learned that Brent ran a lucrative importing business with Red
9:45
Warden as junior partner. I dropped into visit. I'd like to see mister
9:50
Brent. I'm sorry, but both mister Brent and mister Wharton are tied up.
9:54
Oh that's too bad. My firm will be placing a couple of million
9:56
dollars in orders this month. I thought they might. What a piece of
10:00
the business. I'll see if one of them is free. What's your name?
10:05
Race, Frank Race? Yes, sorry to disturb you, mister Brent,
10:11
but there's mister Frank Race out here, send him in and asked him
10:15
into. He just went back to his office. Yes, sir, you
10:18
can go in, mister Race. Apparently mister Brent has heard of your firm.
10:20
Yes, apparently he has. William Brent sported a crew haircut that bristled
10:28
all the way down to his eyebrows. He had about as much poet as
10:31
in neanderthal Man, but the signat ring he wore was five beta Kappa.
10:35
He had one arm in a sling, and the fingers of his free hand
10:37
drubbed a tattoo on the desk. And how much Race? How much?
10:41
Watch old Stall? You witnessed a rather embarrassing scene. Less, and I'll
10:45
make it worth your while to forget it. And you're willing, in turn
10:46
to forget that I put a bullet in your shoulder. Yes, how about
10:50
ten thousand dollars? All right, I'll send it to you later this afternoon
10:58
at your apartment. You know where I live? Yes, Red, check
11:03
the apartment after you fight on us last night. Will the money be in
11:07
cash? Oh? Of course, I'll send somebody for it right now,
11:09
don't father. I was only testing prices, not selling. Come in,
11:13
Red, you've been listening. Yeah, I've been listening. Red Warton had
11:20
the face of a matinee idol, but the kind of hair you'd expect to
11:22
find sticking out of a broken sofa. His body spelled athlete and his eyes
11:28
spelled trouble. Red made you an offer, Race, take it or be
11:31
sorry. Brent parts with ten thousand dollars very easily, just to avoid little
11:37
embarrassment. Haven't the papers done enough already? No wedding yesterday? I look
11:41
like a fool, and people don't do business with fools, all because of
11:43
a lover's quarrel. A lover's quarrel with bullets. Money had a gun.
11:46
We weren't armed. She has a violent temper. Any idea where she got
11:50
the gun? Why how would we know? You should know, Brent?
11:54
It's registered with the police in your name. I've got a gun that isn't
11:58
registered with anybody. You've made enough trouble in something that doesn't concern you,
12:03
and I'll get lost. Haven't you noticed how casually I wear my clothes with
12:05
one hand in my coat pocket. You don't think I walked in here like
12:09
a setup? Do you? All right? Red? Stop this nonsense?
12:11
All right? Race? You can go to the police if you want who,
12:15
I don't care what you do, just so long as you get out
12:16
of here. Thank you, and excuse me if I back out. On
12:31
the way out of Brent's office, I made a fast dinner date with the
12:33
secretary. I figured she might give it to herself and with the help of
12:37
candle light and wine, give me a rundown on what cooks and the importing
12:41
business has conducted by Brent and Red Wharton. My next stop was the county
12:46
courthouse, where I took a peek at a dead man's will just for kicks.
12:50
It was the will of Rupert J. Costa, father of the gun
12:52
toting bride Marny. What you want, mister right, Yes, very definitely
12:58
cause to left his entire fortune to his daughter, to be held in trust
13:03
until her twenty fifth birthday. But if she marries before her twenty fifth birthday,
13:07
control of the money passes to her husband. Nice spot for a fortune
13:11
hunter. Yeah, I guess you, old boy wanted to make sure she
13:15
didn't marry too young, and she hasn't, not yet. I'm going to
13:18
check the birth records. I've got an idea that Marnie cost her still a
13:22
bit short of her twenty fifth birthday. Yeah, pop, oh oh,
13:28
thanks, mister race so long. I left the Hall of Records and went
13:35
down the steps into the street. I turned toward a capstan, but I
13:39
was jostle the other way. Go on my way. At first glance,
13:45
he looked and sounded like a kid on his way to the junior prim But
13:48
there was a blue beard line that said he'd been shaving for a long time.
13:52
His pork pie hat and bowed tie was something to smile at if he
13:54
weren't familiar with a glint in his eye it came from smoking a brand you
13:58
can't get at the corner cigar store. The schoolboy face belonged to a professional
14:05
killer. I thought you were told to mind your own business. I'll walk
14:09
over to that parking lot, and if I don't, I'll give it to
14:11
your right here. I don't play games. No, your type doesn't.
14:16
I'll walk. He was gonna handle like a crate of nitroglycering. I intended
14:24
to make my play as we reached his car, but as we went behind
14:26
a billboard, he played first, Now this sort of be real good fun.
14:41
I came out of my fog, slowly through the sickly sweet smell of
14:45
a chloroform hazen into the head, piercing sharpness of smelling salts. Come on,
14:50
come on, come on, come on, take one more way.
14:54
Somebody slugged me. Then I was chloroformed. But how did I get home
14:56
here? That's something I don't know. I don't know this. You've got
15:01
to snap out of it fast. I was lying here when I come in
15:03
with his gun in your hand. It's been fired. Race. That cookie
15:09
sitting in your favorite chair is very, very dead. I looked at the
15:13
chair by the fireplace, and staring back at me with a bullet through his
15:18
head was William Brent, the importer who never got to be a bridegroom.
15:30
We'll return to the adventures of Frank Race in just about one minute. Now
15:41
back to the adventures of Frank Race. Emily Post might think it objectionable to
15:50
walk out on a guest, even an uninvited one, But since Brent occupied
15:54
my favorite chair and was also dead, I passed up his company in favor
15:58
of that dinner date with this secretary. A jittery Mark Donovan drove me through
16:02
traffic to the point of rendezvous. Oh grace, if you don't call a
16:07
corps about that stiff. They are gonna tie a can't your tail? But
16:11
good? And if I do report it before I know who did the killing,
16:14
I'm not going to get a chance to untie the can. I woke
16:17
up at my own apartment with a gun in my hand and a corpse.
16:19
I'll lead more than ad libs to explain it. Yeah. Look, how
16:22
about that character what a porkpie had that? You told me about it?
16:26
You ought to be trying to tag him. I want you to do that?
16:29
Oh great, great? I chase a weed smoke or whose idea of
16:33
romance is to strangle somebody? But you you got it tough. You have
16:38
dinner with a dog. She's a very plain girl, really, Mark,
16:42
who you kid? You wouldn't date a plain? Jane is South? Who
16:45
killed cock Robin? All right? All right? How do always start finding
16:49
a guy? I described him to you? He's probably a hood brought in
16:52
from someplace to do this job on Brent's. If he is, he's been
16:56
paid off by now. A lad like that might make a loud an expensive
17:00
tour of the night spots drift between the Halo Club and the Siamese Angel.
17:04
You'll hit one of them. Sooner or later. Okay, is your stop
17:08
defend though, I've passed it to the florist. I'll pick up a corsage
17:12
for the lady. Yeah, maybe I ought to get one too, huh
17:17
for my blind date, a bouquette of poison ivy. What's your name,
17:32
honey, it's margin. I hope you don't think I make a habit of
17:36
dating just anybody who comes into the office. I'm certainly thought and happy that
17:41
you made an exception in my case. I've been wondering how much of an
17:44
impression I made on your boss, Brent. I really don't know. He
17:48
left the office right after you didn't needn't come back. How about red Warton?
17:51
He left too. He had a dinner date with Marnie Costs, Redheaded
17:55
dinner date with the girl Brent was supposed to marry the one who ran out
17:57
on him. Sure, the three of them were fighting all the time,
18:00
but they always made up. I guess mister Wharton will calm her down and
18:04
she'll marry mister Brent after all. But against that, huh, nothing did
18:11
you mention having a date with me? Of course not. I think I
18:14
want to lose my job. Look, baby, here's twenty dollars that'll pay
18:17
for a nice dinner. I have to make a phone call, but aren't
18:21
you coming back? I may, baby, I may. I headed for
18:26
the phone booths near the hat check room, then changed my course and headed
18:30
along the sidewall to the door to the kitchen. Two plainclothes men from homicide
18:33
had come in from the street, and that meant they'd been tipped off and
18:37
discovered Brent's body. I made my way through the kitchen, always opened for
18:40
guest inspection, and out a little side door into an alley. I had
18:42
more company, though, the lad with the quark pie hat. You ought
18:48
a whole still, friend, you squirm around too much and make things tough.
18:52
You can't pull anything on me this time. I'm your patsy for a
18:55
murder rap. And if you drop me, you have no patsy. Besides,
18:57
which have you drop? He might drop you? Mark good boy?
19:03
All right, friend, you can let go of that gun shop. Look,
19:08
I drive one block after I leave you here. See then I see
19:12
this guy in that hat walked down the street. When he coins into the
19:17
alley, I decided to come back. See what his pitches? Who are
19:19
you call me Spudsy, it's all who paid you to kill Brent? That's
19:23
what your job wasn't it, pell Mark? Take this gun? Look,
19:29
Spudsy, I don't like this, but I haven't got much time. Who
19:30
paid you? Or do? I beat it out of here? Come on,
19:33
alright, let go and meet you, all right? I hit him
19:37
and he went back into some rubbish and came up with an empty bottle.
19:38
He broke it as I closed in on him and jabbed the jacket into my
19:41
face. I stepped aside and call him flush on the jaw ingo. Where
19:48
that boy ain't gonna appear on information? Please anymore tonight? No, maybe
19:52
the police can get it out of him. You'll find a couple of boys
19:55
from homicide out front, have them take him in on suspicion. I'm gonna
19:59
go over this fence. Pay a call on Marney Custer. Yes, I
20:10
want to see miss Custer. But she left on her honeymoon. Honeymoon?
20:15
What are you giving me? I don't understand. The wedding didn't come off,
20:18
and you know it. You work for her, and she couldn't have
20:21
changed her mind today because Brent is dead. Mister Brent is dead, that's
20:25
right, old girl, Now, where's the bride? She's on her honeymoon.
20:30
She married mister Wharton in Connecticut this afternoon, and then came back to
20:33
Peck. She married Wharton, Red Wharton, Yes, sir, and they
20:37
left in his car not an hour ago. A spare groom is a handy
20:47
thing to have when a girl's first choice turns up dead but suitable honeymoon accommodations
20:51
are not made on short notice. Since Red Wharton had taken over the bride,
20:55
there was also a chance he'd taken over the accommodations. Mark picked me
20:57
up and we broke into the Brent Wharton Importing Company office to search for a
21:02
clue. I don't know what you expect a fine race, just a scrap
21:08
of paper, maybe the name of a hotel, some resort, steamship reservation
21:11
anything. I went on, What don't secretaries take care of that kind of
21:15
stuff? Marcus, you're right, you'll keep looking here. I'll check Margie's
21:19
calendar notes. Okay, who's Marchie? Brent secretary? My dinner date may
21:23
Heaven and Emily post forgive me? Come here, Mark, I've got it,
21:33
great girl. What's your plan? The hotel Almorada and Niagara Falls.
21:40
I had a face. Now, who would ever think a corner on a
21:44
honeymore? Well, apparently Brent did. Now let's hope that Wharton followed suit.
21:48
Somebody's got Watchman. Probably there's a skylight chat outside that small window.
21:52
We can hide there until he goes through. Come on, I'll boost you
21:56
right, all the comforts at home. It is a legend here we can
22:02
said on, come on, come on putting up it has it's like doctor,
22:07
the windows stained glass. You can't see us. And what's this saying?
22:14
Once you can stacked up here? It's not funny. Watchman's gone stack
22:21
the match? Yeah sure, but why let's see what your phone hold it
22:26
while I opened this? Yeah right, it looks like flower It isn't flower
22:33
mark, it's dope. There's enough here to ruin a thousand lives and make
22:37
somebody rich. Now I know why Brent was killed. Come on, ah,
22:53
well what do you know? At last? I get the same?
22:56
Niagara Falls? And who am I with you? Never mind the moaning The
23:00
clerk said they were out for a walk. Keep your eyes peeled. It's
23:03
a guy in the dame leaning against a fence up her head and the guys
23:07
red hair. That's them. Race. Is something wrong with that girl.
23:08
Look, she's trying to jump. Hurry, Mark, hold her, Warden,
23:14
heysy got him? I want head, all right, Warden, hold
23:15
on, I'll get him, all right. Lift her back over the rail,
23:25
all right, all right, I'll just put her down. Sorry.
23:29
I had a hit her, Warden. It was the only way I could
23:30
have done it myself. But you went over the rail too first. I
23:34
just had time to grab her arm. You know what's wrong with her,
23:37
don't you? Yeah, narcotics. She's been trying to quit. I thought
23:45
she could stay away from him, but it almost drove her mad. Gonna
23:47
have to turn her in. You know why she killed brands? Killed brands,
23:53
Yes, killed brands. Oh, don't play, Warden. Somebody paid
23:56
a character named Spudsy to kill him and play the body in my apartment.
24:00
It adds up to you or her, which isn't. Wait a minute,
24:06
you're not going to frame up a murder charge against her. Race. She
24:08
had a gun to night we met, and she was using it. Brent
24:12
was forcing her to marry him. She started taking dough. He got her
24:18
render it. Then he started to cut down his supply and squeeze her until
24:22
she was desperate. They good he could get him money that way and become
24:26
the biggest operator in the country. But all of a sudden, Brent turned
24:29
up dead and she married you. Brent knew she loved me. When I
24:33
found out about his traffic and what he was doing to her, I was
24:37
going to turn him in, he said. The scandal at runer, so
24:41
I didn't. I just took it away and brought her up here. I'm
24:45
sorry, I can see it now, but there is a dead man and
24:51
somebody has to pay off on him. I'm not paying off her. Honey.
24:53
How are you say back there? I'm all right now, listen,
25:00
it's all right, baby, don't say anything. I killed Brent. You're
25:03
just going to the hospital, all right. I'll go to the hospital.
25:08
We'll go across the border, and you'll stay with me. You didn't kill
25:12
Brent, neither did I. No help me up, and we'll leave.
25:18
Mister race Red, I'm beginning to see a light. Give me the right
25:22
answer to one question, and if it is right, I'll let you take
25:26
it over a hospital, free and clear. What do you want to know?
25:30
Did you really kill Brent? Tell him? Golly, because I didn't,
25:37
No, race I didn't. I think I can clear it up.
25:41
It's back to New York, rest Mark, I overlooked something. Well,
25:57
hello, mister Racey, fine date you turned out to be. I'll make
26:02
it up to you. Moggie. Just give me a little help, and
26:03
I have a big surprise for you. Well, sure mind if I bother
26:08
this chair, sure help yourself. I want to take a look into that
26:11
airshaft window. Thanks. Nothing out on the ledge. Mark was there last
26:18
night, yes, and Spuggy was in jail last night too, But somebody
26:23
came up with a fat bunch of bail this morning, didn't they. Maggie,
26:26
what do you mean? I mean that Spuggy is your boyfriend because he
26:30
tipped the police off about Brent's body and told them they could pick me up
26:33
at the vandom. Then he showed up there too, and you were the
26:36
only one when you I'd be there. I don't know what you're talking about.
26:40
I think you do. And I've got an idea that isn't business correspondence
26:44
and that typewriter may I haven't. No, come on, come on,
26:47
let's go, baby, Okay, okay, us I get the picture.
26:52
I thought you would because that's the list of places you've arranged to get rid
26:56
of the drugs through, isn't it. You're a smart guy, but this
26:59
time I ain't waiting to cool. It's here and now with the same gun
27:03
to kill Brent. You'll take me first, baby, You are right,
27:07
Mark chilm. I am not only all right, but I will let you.
27:12
Odds did he stays out thirty seconds longer than he did when you'll hit
27:17
him? Good? Now, let's drop these kids off at police headquarters and
27:19
take this list down to a narcotic squad. I imagine the stuff is in
27:23
your apartment of Spuggies, isn't it, Margie? Find it? Oh?
27:27
Worry, baby, we will two bad Brents suspected you're dipping into a supply
27:33
and setting up shop on your own with Spuggy's such a pretty coil too,
27:38
hey, Grace tell me somewhere I should be delighted, Marcus. True,
27:45
Now, Sue, did you'll kiss this scoil when you were not with it?
27:48
Of course not Mark, And you didn't kiss you. I don't want
27:53
it to No, no, no, no, that's a shame. Yeah,
28:00
you know it's getting sort of Ain't no romance in this business Anymore.
28:18
The Adventures of Frank Race, starring Paul Dubove with Tony Barrett as Mark Donovan
28:22
comes to you from Hollywood. Others heard in tonight's cast were Loreen Tuttle,
28:26
Jackie Shields, Peter Leeds, Bert Holland, and Don McKee. This series
28:30
is written and directed by Buckley Angel and Joel Murcott. The music is composed
28:36
and played by Ivan Ditmars. Be sure to be with us again this time
28:40
next week for another dramatic chapter in the Adventures of Frank Race. Art Gilmore
28:45
speaking. This is a Brucel's production. Welcome back. Well. I like
29:25
this episode as we get to see Mark Donovan make a few astonishing saves here,
29:33
and I definitely think this series has a case for being renamed The Adventures
29:38
of Mark Donovan saving Frank Race's life. But this really does this episode,
29:45
perhaps more than any other kind of cast. Race as a nine errant.
29:51
Obviously there's no insurance contract, no reason for him to get involved other than
29:57
he sends a wrong, senses something wrong that must be righted. So perhaps
30:03
one of the strongest episodes of perhaps of any detective, putting them solidly in
30:08
that modern night type reputation we turn out a listener comments and Robert offers this
30:19
with his donation. Adam, thank you for all your hard work. Look
