- 2:16talented actor Vincent Price as the Saints. If thebody meets thebody coming through the
- 2:27old fashions need a body, it should be coming through the rye. I
- 2:32prefer old fashions. That's my doorstep you're on. I know you like my
- 2:37doorsteps. Oh, I think it's a very nice doorsteps. Thanks. Are
- 2:40you collecting doorsteps or nearly homesteading them? Well, my idea was to wait
- 2:45until you got here and then go in with you. It's a very nice
- 2:47idea to match my doorstep. Suppose would you come in? Yeah? M
- 3:02you have a couple of nights ideas that is that would you like a drink?
- 3:06We haven't been introduced yet. You're right, I'm Wendy Brown. How
- 3:09do you do? And will you still have a death? I don't think
- 3:13so? Why not? Because I'm afraid, Wendy May I assure you there
- 3:17is no fate worse than death, But it's death that I'm afraid of.
- 3:22We've postpone the drinks death in general wood. Have you ever heard of a
- 3:25man named Harry Morgan? Harry Morgan, I used to be a pirate by
- 3:29that name. And hey, wait a moment. The contemporary Harry Morgan was
- 3:32a crook on a very high plane. That's the one. I mean,
- 3:36he's going to kill me. But I thought, if I remember correctly,
- 3:39that he was spending the rest of the twentieth century. And Guatemala points out
- 3:44he's coming back to this country. Oh, I see it was in the
- 3:46newspapers. Oh no, he he owes the government lots and lots of money
- 3:50on income texts. They've been after him for a long time. He wouldn't
- 3:53dare come back openly. Well, then he's been flown in secretly tomorrow night.
- 3:59It's not they're terribly well kept secret. But he is coming, and
- 4:03I'm a free Harry Morgan doesn't like you. Well, he and I we
- 4:10used to be, that is, we were sort of friends. That sounds
- 4:14comfortable. When he had leave the country suddenly, he asked me to keep
- 4:17some things for him, things like what things like jewelry, and you did.
- 4:21His idea was I would sell the jewels and send the money on to
- 4:26him. And you didn't sell the Oh I saw them, all right,
- 4:28but but you didn't send him the money. Well, I felt that he
- 4:31he owed me something and you collected. Now he's coming back, you're afraid
- 4:35he'll try to collect her. Yes, he'll want to hurt me. Son,
- 4:41do you think I should be hurt? Whenever blondes with ideas get closer
- 4:46than the foot from me, I stopped thinking it's a family failing. M
- 4:51oh well, the family disowned me. Wendy. How did you find out
- 4:57about Morgan's returning to this country? Oh, Sammy told me. Sammy being
- 5:00he's a punch drunk little prize fighter who spends all his time hanging around bars.
- 5:03His favorites the Green Star on Third Avenue, which might explain how he
- 5:08picked the news up. Where is Morgan's plane landing? Oh, Sammy didn't
- 5:13tell me. Then that's important for a number of reasons. I think maybe
- 5:15I'll have to find Sammy and have a talk with him. You're going to
- 5:18help me, Simon. I don't believe in blonde being killed. I think
- 5:24it's unconstitutional or something. Besides, Harry Morgan is a bad man. Oh,
- 5:29Simon, I can't tell you how much I appreciate this, how much
- 5:33I'm can't tell me? Better not demonstrate not tonight. I've got to find
- 5:38Sammy. Now you go home, lock your door and stay behind it.
- 5:41All right, sir, it's less than twenty four hours in which to find
- 5:45Sammy, discover where Morgan's landing, and pacify him. If that's the word,
- 5:48I mean, a good night Wendy and wish me luck. You'll need
- 5:53it. Tac day tactic not of southeast of West Yell for Louis. He'll
- 6:13do the rest. Hello, Louis, I'm glad to see you. Likewise,
- 6:17I'm sure, but it'll be too much trouble for you to drive me

- 6:25Avenue? Okay, hey, but uh but that that's a very low type
- 6:30bar shawt us on a flow so ful, a catch in the drink.
- 6:34Well, I'm not going there to drink. Louis, are you gonna date
- 6:36that? Perhaps? I don't know. The name is Sammy. Don't sound
- 6:42like a plum relaxed, Louis. It's a business date. Sammy, I've
- 6:45been told, is a broken down prize fighter. Oh, I know the
- 6:48guy you mean. He's a lush with cauliflower. Sounds like an accurate description.
- 6:53Also, he ain't very healthy, I'm sure he's not. However,
- 6:56I hope he lives until we get to him. Hey, Joe, Yes,

- 9:07Louis faster? Are you a man or a mouse? I don't know.
- 9:11I squeak easier than never mind the car ahead of us got mud on the
- 9:16license plate. I don't think by accident. Hey, hey, you're shooting
- 9:20in us. I ain't ensured what will happen to my wife and six kids.
- 9:22You don't have a wife and six kids. One thing I'll tell you
- 9:24for sure if there ain't gets any federal on them. I have a wife
- 9:26in six kids. I've been hit. What Louis where in the left rear?
- 9:33It's tired? That's that. Come on. We may as well go
- 9:43back and see how Sammy is. If he chilled, he is ambulance sort
- 9:58of we have pretty soon much the temper. He don't look good though,
- 10:03No Sammy, h goodness, seen who shot him? We didn't even something
- 10:09else? Sammy? Who were the people you've told about Morgan, Sammy girl
- 10:18tips, Wendy Yeah yeah, nice nice? Who else? Couple, A
- 10:30couple of guys, A couple Who were they? Sammy? Where is Morgan
- 10:37being landed? Where is his plane coming in? Sammy? Goodbye? Sammy?
- 11:05Bartender? Another cup? I beg your pardon, I said, another
- 11:09cup? You mind, no, except that I'm not a policeman. You're
- 11:13a bartender. Then. My name is Simon Templar. Templar. Yes.
- 11:20I saw Sammy gun to death outside this bar a couple of hours ago that
- 11:26so I went out of the hospital with him. They did a quick autosy.
- 11:30So Sammy had a lot of money in his pocket. He only had
- 11:33one or two drinks before leaving this bar. I already told a Kopsha.
- 11:37Yeah, they're terribly grateful. He bought himself a bottle and didn't finish it.
- 11:41That's why I came back here. You want to finish it, bartender,
- 11:46I think you'd better listen closely. From what I've heard of Sammy,
- 11:48nothing but the fear of death would have driven him away from an unfinished bottle
- 11:52of liquor. Why did he leave the bar? Somebody called up as for
- 11:56fool. The guy didn't say he hung up on me? Guy meaning man,
- 12:00I don't know it was a whisper. You can't tell much from a
- 12:03whisper. Who'd be worried about Harry Morgan's returning to this country. I don't
- 12:09know that neither, and I don't want to party. We've already bought yourself
- 12:13apart. Bartender. You didn't tell the police about that phone call. They
- 12:16didn't ask me. Yeah, they'd be unhappy about your coin. You wouldn't
- 12:20want them to be unhappy. They could do things about your license in their
- 12:24sorrow. Oh, who'd be worried about Morgan? I'm talking to myself.
- 12:31I ain't telling you nothing. To go ahead, I'll eaves drop. Morgan
- 12:37had a girl named Wendy Brown who never mind her hour, and know about
- 12:39that. Also, he left the nightclub in charge of a couple of guys
- 12:43named Kerrigan and Marlow. Thought's been going around the Kerrigan and mollow Infanto regular
- 12:48ship in the gambling receipts to Morgan. I just finished talking to myself.
- 12:54Thank you. You may have a drink on them. On you No,
- 12:58I'm saying, oh, go away. I'm in Alaska, fast Catchewan,
- 13:13Alaska. And besides fast Catchawan isn't in Alaska? Simon, you've been treating
- 13:20sure a bottle of real lemon juice. Lemon juice. Yeah, the weather
- 13:24forecast that rain announce the preventions. But hey, it is raining out Look,
- 13:30Wendy, why don't you wait until morning? It happens to be twelve
- 13:31thirty in the afternoon. I've been robbed, right, I guess I was
- 13:35up pretty late last night about Sammy. No, I did better. I
- 13:41saw Sammy, Simon. I'm frightened. See where you are. I'll grab
- 13:46a cab, come over and we'll be frightened together. Oh but if you
- 13:48were here, I wouldn't be frightened. Neither would I. But we're not
- 13:52going to be there. We're going to visit a couple of gentlemen and I
- 13:56probably used the word he'll advisedly named Carrie and Mirlow. Oh, Simon,
- 14:01Now I'm afraid all over again. It's still raining, Wendy Son. Do
- 14:18we have to we have to? I don't get it. Louis. Has
- 14:22anybody passed the law recently that she should? I still don't get it.
- 14:26Fella takes a girl to one nightclub? Fine, this I understand, but
- 14:31not in the middle of the day. A nightclub is called a nightclub on
- 14:33a common du Yeah, we've a right, I didn't recognize the joint in
- 14:39the daytime. On a comic, I know it's a nightclub. Wendy,
- 14:46Hi, I wait? You wait? You been here before, Wendy,
- 14:52Yes, with Harry, he owns it. Tell me is there any other
- 14:58entrance than this one? Yes, let's go that way then, I like
- 15:03Ali's you meet interesting cats. Don't be frightened. Hello, but it's why
- 15:13Wendy. Hello, And I'm Simon. And where you're going with that nice
- 15:18suitcase? And none of your business? And perhaps not? It could be
- 15:20Morgan's business though, or the police department. Well, let's go back in.
- 15:26Look, I got some do in here you can have. No,
- 15:28it might have blood on it. I told you I don't preach into your
- 15:31pocket to tell me a little pistol. I think I'll keep it to remember
- 15:37you. Bye, Come on, you're going back in, all right.
- 15:48The officer's down here, I'll put the suitcase. Where's your partner? Mars
- 15:56round someplace? Where's more landing? I don't know Marlow got the dope from
- 16:03Sammy. You're sure he did not ask me he would be Marlow. All
- 16:08right, I will ask you where is Morgan Landing? Yes, Sammy told
- 16:12you then Bunk was dead before I got to him. Oh, then you've
- 16:18been out looking for him last night? Suregan, you know Kerragan didn't tell
- 16:22me. Doesn't have to now, doesn't I think maybe you want to take
- 16:26a walk. Oh no, my feet more than that's gonna sorry, I
- 16:32have a gun too. True, it happened to be Kerrigan, but then
- 16:36I did leave him his toothcase, suitcase. Just some clue. Open her
- 16:41up now. As a matter of the way, that light, Oh I
- 16:59don't know, don't lead me. I think we're alone night which was over
- 17:06this way, son, and look here the door. Yeah, correction,
- 17:12we're not alone. Mister Marlow was still with us, very dead, mister
- 17:18Marlow. Juragan shout it in the d it I'll be funny, did I
- 17:26don't forget Wendy Kerrigan wasn't the only one here in this room with Marlow.
- 17:33I got to call the police and then then we'll go back to our cab.
- 17:37Louis must be doing a lot of picking outside. Oh, son,
- 17:52of my forehead. It's just another couple of stepts here we are, Wendy
- 17:59Lloyd, did you miss it? What else? Welcome home? Well?
- 18:04I wish I knew who made with the with the fire crackers. That happens
- 18:11to be the problem, Louis. I don't want to hear about it,
- 18:12because if those were firecrackers, I'm driving a truck. What's wrong with driving
- 18:17a truck? Who said something was wrong? Truck drivers happened to be among
- 18:21the most courteous drivers on the road. Well, look it was the Temple.
- 18:22I got nothing. They're always there to help a motorist in trouble.
- 18:26Mister Temple. Not already with the truck drivers, I know they are are
- 18:30wonderful class characters. All of them got PhDs. What happened back there in
- 18:33the club? A man got shot very dead because another man carrying a nice
- 18:37suitcase filled with money not belonging to him didn't want to open the suitcase and
- 18:41let the other man see it. Asked a silly question, getting late terribly
- 18:48Harry Morgan Is I want to stop worrying about Morgan. Maybe the whole thing
- 18:52was just a rumor. It was not what I said. It was not
- 18:56a rumor about Morgan coming back. Oh, hear them all what's been bothering
- 19:00you? Was where his plane is going to be? Posit him? No,
- 19:03yes, so ask me, Louis, I will probably assassinate. Then
- 19:07a joke, Ask me, all right, where is Morgan's plane landing a
- 19:12private landing field up at Boonchester. I want to know what time it's landing.
- 19:18I don't believe any of this, but what time is it landing?
- 19:19Here? Midnight? Tonight? I hate myself in the morning, but tonight
- 19:23I've got to know, Louis, how did you find out? I listened
- 19:26to the radio? What time is it? Ten? How much longer the
- 19:45Boonchester lowis aur and a half? Maybe we should be in time, Louis
- 19:49repeat, huh the broadcast you listen to? Oh yeah, sure, the
- 19:56man said. Morgan, who has been spending the last couple of years in
- 19:59Guatemala, is returning via private plane for the United States. Sammy was right.
- 20:03Questioned by correspondence about his wandering for income tax invasion, mister Morgan replied
- 20:08he's been in communication with the United States Treasury Department. He's arranged to meet
- 20:11his obligations to them. Sammy was right, But in that case, the
- 20:15Morgan's plane is through the lands at boon Chester the rap at midnight to night
- 20:18A Bullton from a woman's college in the Midwest states that from now on,
- 20:22all women are all women are? What Lowie, how do I know?
- 20:26That's where I turned off the radio because people started shooting guns in the nightclubs.
- 20:30So I don't understand if Harry had to reporters he was coming back to
- 20:34this country, if it was even on the radio, why did Samy make
- 20:38such a hig secret of it. And he did have the news earlier than
- 20:41anyone else did, but not earlier enough to make any difference to you except
- 20:47Sammy. To him, it meant the difference between It's corny, but it's
- 20:51true between life and death. We're getting close. The time is, yeah,
- 21:06a few minutes before twelve. It's Wendy. Why do we have to
- 21:11meet more than when he lands. He has to know that he can't plan
- 21:15to murder you, but maybe he'll try at the airport. No, that's
- 21:18the only place you can be absolutely sure he'll try nothing. But what you
- 21:22mean, he's coming back to put himself on the right side of the law
- 21:26murders against the law, or he'll find a way to kill me, to
- 21:30kill Kerrigan mallows already did. I don't afford to risk anything here, Wendy.
- 21:34Perhaps I can make him realize that he Hey, just must be the
- 21:38airport. It ain't much. No, it's a private field deserted at the
- 21:45moment. The landing lights are on the no welcoming committee. Here's a landing
- 21:49strip. I better pull up. Well, at least the rain has stopped.
- 21:56Oh that's so cool. Yeah, the ground wet, and i'd be
- 22:00careful. It's like a straight hip, son, brilliant lights and in the
- 22:07darkness, how around the emptiness a little longer? Son, Yeah, that's
- 22:17a plane getting closer. Guys over there, but I can see his lights.
- 22:26Oh yeah, he's angling for a landing. He know, he's stay
- 22:30in the cab and he's setting her down. Hey, he did a beautiful
- 22:36job. Not very fine. Now that's the plane's getting a bit, but
- 22:40he's got a straightened out it. Come on, Wendy, mister Morgan,
- 22:48I presume you'll presume riot. Hello, Wendy, h hello, Harry your
- 22:55mind if we join you. It's a little damp down here, alright,
- 23:00help you go, Wendy, now me Well, Wendy, they put you
- 23:08on the welcome committee. Huh, Harry, don't look at me like that.
- 23:14Please. My name is Temper. Yeah, what are you doing here?
- 23:19I'm insurance, you're what Wendy's insurance against your losing your temper. I
- 23:26never lose my temper. I never lose anything. How was the weather back
- 23:30in Guatemala fine? When I took off? Why nothing anything happened on the
- 23:36fly. No, A very nice plane happens to be the best twin motor
- 23:41job built. Yeah, I can believe that the pilot's seat is nice and
- 23:45dry. Floor of the cabin nice and dry. What cooks with him,
- 23:51Wendy? Does he want to grow up and deal? Weather man? Everything's
- 23:53nice and dry, Morgan, except your shoes. What was your shoes are
- 24:00wet? Hey company, Let's see who it is? Well, vanishing mister
- 24:08Kerrigan, come in my my carrigan carrying a gun like a real big bull.
- 24:15Never mind a gagas Morgan, Samy's dead, so's Marlow. That's very
- 24:18sad news you're telling me want me to break down and blubber. I'm on
- 24:22the spot for both killings. Morgan, that's very sad. Why'd you kill
- 24:26him? I didn't? You might as well save your breath on that one
- 24:29too. You see Morgan's shoes are wet. It was fine weather in Guatemala
- 24:36when Morgan took off. The plane doesn't leak. He just landed. It
- 24:40hasn't been off the plane yet. How did he get his shoes wet?
- 24:45Very nice shooting, Morgan, You got his arm, very nice shooting,
- 24:49indeed, Yeah, even wearing wet shoes. Oh, I'll take your gun
- 24:55carry Thank you, you were saying, Template, It's only one way you
- 25:03could have got your shoes wet, mister Morgan. You must have been out
- 25:07in the rain. Yeah, which means this is your second landings. Yeah,
- 25:11mister Morgan was around New York yesterday and today. Then he got back
- 25:15to his plane, flew around a bit, and landed it all over again
- 25:18on the schedule he'd given the press. It would have made a nice alibi
- 25:23alibi the Sammy's murder and Marlow's. Too bad he got his shoes wet?
- 25:29Yes, too bad for you, Template. Sure, I landed here yesterday,
- 25:33went to down and took care of a couple of things. In other
- 25:37words, Sammy and Marlow got killed while I was officially flying in from South
- 25:41America. It's a lovely alibi, one of the loveliest alibis I've ever met.
- 25:45The idiot had to be destroyed. It hasn't been going to stand up
- 25:49after the three of you get yourselves mixed up in a gunfight and knock yourselves
- 25:53off. I think you could get away with it. I can try.
- 25:56What have I got to lose your pilot's licenship you? After all? So
- 26:08I did. He must have a very weak job, Louis, your angel.
- 26:14I've seen the other guy, you know, one bleeding from the armsteam
- 26:17climb into the plane. I didn't know you was expecting, so I thought
- 26:19maybe i'd come and keep you company too, And I'm very glad you did,
- 26:22Louis. But even the best of parties must come to an end.
- 26:26So, Louis, will you phone the police and inform them that Harry Morgan
- 26:30has made his last landing? But Simon, yes, Wendy, you knew.
- 26:42You must have known that Morgan had killed Sandy and Model before we even
- 26:45got to the airport. I did. The wet shoes helped me convince Morgan
- 26:48on you. But Wendy, why was Sanny killed? Well, I thought
- 26:53because he'd gone around telling people about Morgan. That's not right though, no
- 27:00be, since we know Morgan had openly announced his return and Sammy's information would
- 27:03have bolstered Morgan's alibi. But how did Sammy find out about Morgan's return before
- 27:08the newscasters? Did? Huh? I suppose? Oh, Morgan him soon?
- 27:15It had to be that way. Morgan told Sammy to spread the word
- 27:18around and then killed him before Sammy got too drunk and let the fact slip
- 27:22that he'd seen Morgan a day before Morgan was supposed to arrive. Sammy's only
- 27:27function was to help protect Morgan's alibi and get the three people he was after.
- 27:32Thoroughly jittery and on the run, Morgan's job would be simpler then it
- 27:36really was. But how did you know he killed Marlow? Well you didn't,
- 27:41No gun. I didn't because well, because it wouldn't be proper,
- 27:45And Kerrigan didn't because Marlow had taken his gun. Remember, Oh gosh,
- 27:52Simon, the way you're saying it all sounds so simple, but it isn't.
- 27:56And ungrateful. I was a nice kiss, but fleeting an kiss.
- 28:06Let's take a little longer, mister Tumbleps and mister Temple, like the same
- 28:30You've been listening to another transcribe adventure of the Saints. The robin Hood of
- 28:34Modern Crime. Now Here is our starvants and pride, ladies and gentlemen.
- 28:38In tonight's cast, you heard Joan Banks as Wendy and Larry Dobkin is Lewis.
- 28:44Paul Freeze played Sammy and ed Max. The bartender Barney Phillips was Kerrigan
- 28:49and Tony Barnett Marlow missus. Vincent Price inviting you to join us again next
- 28:55week at this same time for another exciting adventure of the Saint. Good Night.
- 29:15The High Script of the Saint was written by Lewis Vitties. The Saint,
- 29:18based on characters greeted by Leslie charteris as a James L. Staffier production
- 29:22and is directed by Helen Mack. Vincent Price is now starring in The Winslow
- 29:26Boy at the Las Palmas Theater here in Hollywood. All you Saint fans will
- 29:30be glad to know that the Saint comic books ron sale at all use Dams.
- 29:33You're an answer is Don Stanley. Three Chimes Mean good Times on MBC
- 29:37Theater Gild on the Air. Tonight stars Douglas Fairbanks Junior, Angela Landsbury and
- 29:41Cecil Parker in the dramatic triumph The Voise Inheritance and in one hour It's the
- 29:45Big Show, an hour and a half of the best in comedy, music
- 29:49and drama with Tallula as MC. Three Chimes mean good Times on NBC,
- 30:00Welcome Back, a Cavet saves the Day and a recurring character No Less.
- 30:04You have to wonder they borrow a Frank Race script. I wasn't used though
- 30:10this is this was a bit more witty than a typical Frank Race script.
- 30:15Well, we do now turn to some listener comments and feedback. Aaron emails
- 30:21in, Hello Adam, just sent in a donation via PayPal. I'm happy
- 30:26to support your show and thank you for the great work you do. Loving
- 30:30the current lineup of shows, especially the Saint Thanks erin and I actually think
- 30:34that this is probably the strongest lineup of shows we've ever had here and probably
- 30:41the strongest will ever have. Not to be pessimistic, but all the show
- 30:45is available, though of course we've still got a lot to go. But
- 30:48this is a very strong balance of different types of shows and great talents in
- 30:56the lead on every show, with some solid writing too. And then we
- 31:00turned to episode fifteen three, It's No Use, where if you were call
- 31:07a divorced woman hired Simon to pretend to be her husband in order to protect
- 31:17her from her ex husband so she could continue to get paid alimony and instead
- 31:23be killed. Bobby Lee asked a good question, if she really was married
- 31:29to the saint, would she have lost wouldn't she have lost her alimony?
- 31:33Anyway? That is a very good question. I think it probably does depend
- 31:40on the terms of the settlement. But that was a detail perhaps that slipped
- 31:44up as was perhaps a little bit less common in those days than it is
- 31:48now. And finally we have an email from Linda regarding the same episode.
- 31:56She asked her episode fifteen oh three, snow use, do you know who
- 32:01played Peggy? The ditzy client was a Virginia Greg. The voice sounds awfully
- 32:07familiar and the actress was perfect in the role. Thanks Linda. It did
- 32:13sound like Venda, excuse me, Virginia Greg. To me, the voice
- 32:19reminded me a little bit of Brooksy from Let George Do It and Richard Diamond's
- 32:22girlfriend, both of Virginia Greg roles. And so yeah, that seems plausible.
- 32:28Well, that will actually do it for today. We will be back
- 32:30tomorrow with Crime and Peter Chambers, and then join us again next Monday for
- 32:37another episode of The Saint. In the meantime, send your comments to Box
