2:13
Will there be anything for perserve mister Templer Rypik, not Carl, just some
2:16
more coffee please, it's such an innocent thank you? Excuse me? Do
2:22
you mind if I sit down here with you? I'd be happiest? Oh,
2:24
thank you. I hope you realize I wouldn't approach a perfect stranger if
2:28
it wasn't a matter of life or death. Oh, I'm sure he is
2:30
a matter of life or death. That's why I had to sit down with
2:34
the handsomest man in the room. You well, but you certainly aren't much
2:38
of a conversationalist. Well, happily you fill the gap. Now, how
2:42
may I be of service in this matter of life or death? Do you
2:45
think you could gaze into my eyes as if I was the only woman in
2:47
the entire world, but don't make it anything personal? Well, I consider
2:52
it a thestpic channel. I want you to hug me with your eyes?
2:54
Will I spurn you proudly? La Bell? Damn? Well? Now,
3:00
how's this for an ardent yet humble gaze? Not Now, he's not watching.
3:05
I'm sorry. I didn't mean to be fresh. Who's he Marvin?
3:09
He's over there with that that woman. He's looking out of the way.
3:13
I want you to look at me. This I shall have to see docturn
3:16
around. They're leaving, they'll see you. Well, shall I start hugging
3:21
you now? I'm sure it will be good for the muscles in my eyes.
3:25
I'm hugging Stop. Why he never even noticed me? He walked right
3:30
on out. Oh man, I'm sorry, Carl, but would you mind
3:36
changing that coffee to a double brandy? But I never drink not for you,
3:40
dear me. Did he say, mister Templar, Not Simon Templar,
3:46
Simon Templer, the saint the robin hood of modern crime. Fate has led
3:52
you to me. Yeah, I must have a word with fate, and
3:53
before fate entangles us further. What's your name? Alice? Alice Parr,
4:00
but you can call me Alice. Thank you, Alice. Could you give
4:03
me an explanation of this in a few thousand well chosen words? You mean
4:08
to say, you haven't figured it out and you are perfectly marvelous detective.
4:12
Well, I'm a little slow, Alice. A heavy meal. Well that
4:15
was Marvin, Marvin Hickerson. We were engaged practically, and then he came
4:20
to the city. He's a scientific farmer. But he sold his farm for
4:24
how much? May I ask? Fifty thousand dollars? How scientific can you
4:28
get? He said he had to come here to pursue his new vocation to
4:30
the city. I mean, and what is his new vocation? Oh he's
4:34
a private eye. Well, I guess there's always room for one more.
4:38
You do see, don't you see? What? How horrible the whole thing
4:42
is. Marvin has met this this woman, and I found out he's drawn
4:46
out. He's whole fifty thousand dollars out of the bank this morning, and
4:49
while he's carrying it around with him. Now, nobody will help me.
4:53
I don't know what to do. Alice, tell me, Are you worried
4:56
about Marvin? Or are you worried about the money? Worried about Marvin?
5:00
Mister Templar, he's an awful dope, but I love him. I see
5:04
if you would go to him and tell him all the facts, the facts
5:09
you know about life. Well, frankly, I'm not feeling very fatherly at
5:14
the moment, but I'll try. You will you really? Will? You
5:17
swear it by something sacred? I swear it by something. Oh, mister
5:21
Templar, you're the nicest detective a girl ever had for a detective. Come
5:38
in, mister Hickerson, Marvin Hickerson, private eye, come in, come
5:43
in. Oh thank you. Now, what's your problem, mister Templar.
5:46
I wanted to talk to you about a girl, Marvin, a girl.
5:51
You're in your apartment alone. And then she walked in. Well, not
5:55
exactly. It was more in the maker around her shoulders meant money in her
5:59
small holdering eyes meant trouble. Marvin. Kiny pulse started to beat in your
6:03
temple as she swayed closer, and it became a tom tom if she threw
6:08
herself into your arms, remembering words of passion and fear of Marvin. Get
6:13
a grip on yourself. Oh girl, Yes there is a girl, Marvin,
6:16
but you are not sand Spade, all right? You noticed? Huh?
6:19
Well, we've all got to start somewhere true, And I can't take
6:23
your case anyway. I'm involved in a big deal. Marvin. Alice is
6:28
worried about you. Alice, mister Templar. Alice Parks has got to learn
6:32
that I am not a child. I'm a man. I'll accept that,
6:38
and the sooner she stops interfering in my affairs. The better. It'll be
6:42
for everybody, just because I now happen to be going around with a woman,
6:46
definitely a woman who was going to put me in way of making a
6:50
great deal of money. And hello, Marvin, how you? Oh?
6:55
Uh? Oh, mister Dorgan? Who's your friend? Marvin? This is
6:59
mister Temple, mister Templar, This is mister Dorgan, honest Jack Dorgan.
7:03
He trains horses. He's from Kentucky, Kentucky. Yeah, glad to meet
7:08
you, mister Dorgan. So you're from the Bluegrass country. Huh? The
7:12
Bluegrass Country, the home of fast horses and beautiful women. Where's that Kentucky?
7:16
Oh? Oh yeah, yeah, sure, come on, Marvin,
7:19
h sure, mister Drgan, would you excuse us? We got a very
7:23
important appointment, and Marvin has also got fifty thousand dollars. Who is this
7:29
crime? Marvin? He's got noose trouble. Mister Templer. If Alice Parks
7:32
thinks I need someone to protect me, she's mistaken. My experience as a
7:36
private investigator has made me a pretty shrewd judge of character, and my faith
7:42
in the integrity of honest Jack Dorgan is unfounded. Thank you, Marvin Hickerson,
7:46
right, come on, Marvin. The Colonel and Corley are waiting.
7:49
So long, friend, So long, Honest Jack, see you at Churchill
7:53
down sometimes? Where's that? Why in your old home state? Kentucky?
7:57
Ooh, Kentucky, Kentucky. Mister Templar, I'm worried about Marvin. Why
8:11
doesn't he come? I'm a little worried about him myself, Alice, I
8:13
didn't have quite the same faith in honest Jack as Marvin did in this penthouse.
8:18
Marvin never had expensive taste, never in his life. And her picture
8:22
on the piano, mm all my love, Marvey, Honey, you're Coralie.
8:30
It's rather sound true looking, isn't he. Oh? I suppose she's
8:33
pretty. You happen to care for that type? Who doesn't? Oh?
8:37
You men are all alike. It's a convenient arrangement. Oh, he's just
8:41
an absolute, an absolute beast. Don't you dare call Marvin a beast?
8:46
Why doesn't he come, mister Templar? I think I heard the elevator,
8:48
Alice, that maybe Marvin. Hello else, I you better let me have
8:54
that gun, Marvin. No, No, I'll need it. I'll need
8:58
it when they hunt me down. In the inevitable lanb Marvin, what's happened?
9:01
Tell me, Alice, mister Templar, you see before you an outlaw,
9:09
a criminal. Give me the gun, Marvel. I have lived by
9:13
the gun in days, hours, minutes, I shall die by the gun.
9:18
What did you do, Marvin, Alice sight, I killed a man?
9:22
Oh you didn't? I did? I think I did. It's all
9:28
so confused. To sit down, Marvin. There isn't time. The police
9:31
will be after me, maybe with bloodhounds. Oh I doubt if they could
9:35
track you up the elevator shaft. Now look where was this killing? And
9:39
who got killed? Mister Dorgan in the hotel here in sweet A on the
9:43
seventh floor. But you didn't do it. You couldn't tell him he didn't
9:46
do it, mister Templar. Let him tell it, Alice, what happened?
9:48
Marvin? It is all mixed up. There are a lot of people
9:52
there, all betting a lot of money on the horses. And I was
9:56
there with the colonel and Cora Lee and Carly. I knew she was mixed
10:01
up in this go on man. And I bet my fifty thousand on a
10:03
tip mister Dorgan gave us because he knew the race was fixed and I won
10:07
two hundred thousand, yeah, and then mister Dorgan told me the better all
10:13
on another race that was fixed, but the horse lost and there was a
10:16
big argument, and somebody put a gun in my hand and it seemed to
10:18
go off, and and mister Dorgan fell down and there was there was blood,
10:26
blood all over. It was awful. Did anyone call the police?
10:31
I don't know. I get somebody. Did everybody saw it? I'm a
10:37
murderer. You are not, Marvin. Just because you killed someone, That
10:41
doesn't make you a murderer, does it, mister Templar? I think i'd
10:46
better investigate this. Marvin. You wait here without him? No, he'll
10:50
never take me a lot, Norvin, come back here. It's better this
10:52
way, Alice, forget me, forget it. Somewhere in the night there's
10:56
a pale one hundred ten was fugitive from justice. Find someone to take my
11:03
place in your heart? Farewell Marvin. Oh, mister Templar, didn't you
11:16
know, Alice? I didn't. He was already in the elevator. So
11:18
what are we going to do? Did he really murder someone? I think
11:22
we'd better go find out. Come on, Alice, where are we going
11:26
to? Sweet Ay? Seventh floor to see whether honest Jack Dorgan has really
11:30
gone to his old Kentucky home. No answer, But there must be someone
11:46
in there, Marvin said, The room is filled with people. Let's try
11:48
the door. It's open, dark in here. Wait till I find the
11:56
light switch. Do you have to turn on the light? Can't we just
11:58
leave? We have to find out, Alice. Yeah, but it's just
12:03
a perfectly bare room. Doesn't look much like a gambling then, does it.
12:09
You don't see any body. I don't see a sign of anything.
12:13
Well, and it didn't happen. Marvin was just imagining things. There wasn't
12:16
any murder at all. This doesn't look much like a room. A murder
12:20
was committed in ten minutes before. Oh let's go, mister Templar. Let's
12:22
find Marvin and mister Templer. What are you looking at that spot on the
12:31
floor, Alice? That stain? Oh, mister Templer, it isn't.
12:35
I'm afraid it is blood. I'm coming coming, Oh, Alice, come
12:52
in. Oh, mister Templor, how could you sleep so late with poor
12:56
Marvin roaming the streets a hundred fugities? What time is it? Seven thirty?
13:01
Well? I forced myself and how do we know Marvin is a hunted
13:05
fugitive? Is anything in the papers about a killing? No? But the
13:09
body will turn off wanted. I mean they always do. M Usually,
13:13
what are you going to do to find Marvin? I think I'll go out
13:16
and make a few bets on the horses. What you're going to spend the
13:20
day in carefree abandonment while poor Marvin is roaming the streets a hunted fugitive.
13:24
I'd like to find out more about Marvin's friends, Coralie and the colonel talking
13:28
about horses in the bar of the Croydon. Well, it might be a
13:31
way of getting acquainted. You're going to get acquainted with her. We'll all
13:35
go along to protect you. Uh, thank you, But no, you
13:39
won't turn into putty in her hands. She won't mold you. If she
13:41
wills, maybe even fate worse than death. It's a pleasant way to go.
13:46
Well, all right, I trust you, Thank you. You're nice,
13:50
mister Templar. And I want you to know that if it wasn't from
13:54
Marvin, why am I seriously consider you? No? And here you are
13:58
working to save your rival White. It's like Sydney Carton is a far far
14:03
better thing I do than I have ever done before. This is goodbye,
14:07
Goodbye Sydney, another Scotch over icebar. I tend to answer, I've seen
14:24
you studying the form. Got anything good going today? Not a thing?
14:30
But my luck generally is bad. Anyway, you and me going out to
14:35
the track today, Well, I generally like to place my bets elsewhere.
14:39
I bet fairly large amounts, and that the track this brings down, the
14:43
odds brings down it. You dn't I generally lose. But then everyone has
14:50
to have a hobby. Everyone has to have a hobby, ply, missus
14:56
cars there, Yes, indeed, excuse me. Would you all think I
15:01
was just terrible? If I started up a conversation with you just as bold
15:05
as that, I would think it was terrible. If you didn't hear you
15:09
all, that is, you're making fun of my accent. I'm in Kentucky,
15:13
the horse country. That's why I couldn't resist when you started talking horses,
15:16
the fraternity of horse players. You wouldn't be going out to the track
15:22
today, Missus Cost, Carly Cost. My name is Heath Cliffs, Carly
15:30
Simon Heath. I'm delighted to know you. Thank you, are you going
15:35
to the tract. I'd love to, but I have that Daddy. He's
15:39
awful, smart about the races. He wins all the time, just scared
15:41
the money. It sounds like a gentleman I should need. Are you staying
15:46
here in the hotel? We have rooms on the seventh floor. Would you
15:48
all care to come off? Wow? I would just love to Daddy.
16:02
I'd like to make you acquainted with a friend of mine, mister Heathkin Time
16:06
and my father, Colonel Costas. How do you do that? Well?
16:10
Pleasure real pleasure? Oh, shoot down, sir, thank you? Ken
16:17
Uh. Time is the horst player. To Daddy, I told him about
16:19
you making simply scans of money on the races. You what, courly.
16:26
I've asked you time and again not to mention my business to spenge. But
16:30
Daddy, all I said was you made scared of money. I must apologize.
16:33
Sir. You see, the fact is, uh, you look like
16:37
a gentleman I can trust. The fact is that I bet on races only
16:44
when I have gifted information. You mean exed races. Weird, you might
16:48
put it that way. He said that the spool is key should have fallen
16:53
from such little step. But as long as it has. There's a profit
16:59
to be made by I know hands some probbit and I don't mind saying I
17:04
have such knowledge. Could you give them a tip? Daddy? Oh,
17:07
I couldn't ask anything like that. Oh well, perhaps you can do me
17:14
a fever, sir. I have a horse going in just a few minutes.
17:18
Put the horse pallor down. The horse has been refusing my betch.
17:22

17:26

20:32
Yes, I have something tomorrow or we'll help. He'd be back here at
20:36
the same time. If you you want to get in on it, could
20:38
I draw some real money out of the bank to beut on it much as
20:42
you like, my boy. Of course, that's purely up to you.
20:45
Of course I make no guarantee. Certainly it's a pretty risky business, ey,
20:49
Colonel White. I might lose my shirt. Yes, yes, indeed,
20:57
sir, But I don't understand, mister Temples, you actually want a
21:10
thousand dollars. Come on, money, Alice. The whole place is working
21:12
with the colonel. The race was actually over before. I bet they'd let
21:17
me win the money. But why so I would go to the bank tomorrow,
21:19
draw out thirty or forty thousand, and come back and bet it,
21:22
and then I'd lose? Was she very pretty? Who? Prly? Well?
21:26
If you care for that time? Marvin did? Eh? Sure?
21:30
A sign of twenty twenty visions. He hasn't come, Marvin when I think
21:34
of him out there, a poor, lonely hunted future, I know,
21:37
I know. And here we are, the two of us, safe,
21:40
alone in your apartment, The two of us alone in your apartment, Alice
21:45
seven, what's that somebody outside the window. I'll open it, Marvin Tree,
21:55
how'd you recognize me? I was wearing dark glasses in the mustache.
21:59
Come in, Mark, We recognized your voice. I didn't say skid row.
22:07
How awful. That's where I belong. I'm a human, derelict,
22:10
a hunted criminals. Are you hungry? No? I ate at the Sunshine
22:15
Mission. They wanted me to stay and sing tenor in the choir. But
22:18
then I read the paper and came here. Is there any hope? Marvin?
22:22
Look, I want you to stay here tonight. Tomorrow You're going to
22:26
the police and give yourself up. Never, it may not be as bad
22:29
as you think. You're going to give yourself up and then send the police
22:32
over the sweet Ay the seventh floor of the Croydon, where I will have
22:36
just been swindled out of my money, just as you were. I was
22:38
swindled. Gee, they had unnerves swindling up private eye and some crooks just
22:45
have no decency. But Coralie wasn't the crook, was she? I'm afraid
22:49
son? Oh? I suspected her of course all along. Now look,
22:56
here's the plan, Marvin. I'll be there at two o'clock. You walk
23:00
into the police station it two and send them over. That would give me
23:03
enough time to lose the money. Have you got that sure? I'll I'll
23:07
give myself up. Well, I'll go with you. Marvin. No,
23:10
Alice, A woman's place is in the home. You'll wait here until I
23:15
get back. How long will you be? I'm lucky ten years? Oh,
23:21
Marvin Alice? Oh brother, Hello, Colonel, Come in, sir,
23:41
Come in. I uh I don't quite understand, Colonel. Where is
23:47
everybody? Where is Fred the cashier? All the betters? Well, it's
23:49
just a family party, tode, sir. Just Callee and myself say hello
23:56
to gentlemen. Corly, Honey, I stupid. Yeah, Coralie seems to
24:02
have lost her southern charm and refinement. Colonel. Yes, it's a pity.
24:08
I constantly try to impress on our cast. Of course, we are
24:11
all act as in a way that to be successful you must leave you apart
24:14
twenty four hours a day. But there's not the same pride in crestsmanship there
24:18
was in my day. Sit down, thank you, eh? What gave
24:23
me away? Simple thing? Really? One of our personnel saw you with
24:27
young Marvin Hickerson the other day. Come in, doggin, ye knows well,
24:33
honest Jack Dorgan from Kentucky. Then you really weren't shot. Mister Dorton
24:37
got the gunhill blanks, the blood was catching really convenient way of getting rid
24:42
of a sheered lamb. I thought as much. Now what happens? Nothing,
24:47
nothing at all, mister Templar, No doubt. You have the police
24:49
outside waiting to pounce after we take your money. How much did you bring,
24:53
by the way, thirty thousand? Oh shame, they have to pass
24:56
it up. We're going to pass up thirty grand necess we at least beat
25:00
the thousand, not of me, one from us. Colonel him in his
25:03
Kentucky Ah, that would be the police. Little early on to mister Templar,

Helice. Did you change the bullet? Yes? I did. I
26:26

26:29
before he went out to give himself up to the police, just in case.

27:33
Marvin's waiting outside, mister Temple. I guess it just wasn't meant to
27:37
be you and me, that is. I agree. But I want you
27:42
to know that I'll always remember you, mister Temple, from the first moment
27:47
in that restaurant, and you hugged me with your eyes. That was a
27:49
moment. And when the first child comes, we'll name it Simon after you.
27:56
Yes, Simon forever, endeavor. I'll be very honored. Just think

of Modern Crime, and I'll hear us, our star, ladies and gentlemen,
28:30
missus Vincent Price, inviting you to join us again next week at this
28:34
same time for another exciting adventure of the Saint. Good Night. This story
29:02

Maggie Morley, Victor Rodman, Edmund MacDonald, Herb Bigron, Bill Tracy,

29:45
Wilde. Remember Margaret Truman and Doug Fairbanks joined The Big Show today on NBC.
29:55
Welcome back. Well, this one, I think was definitely one of
29:59
the most comedic episodes of The Saints we've heard, and I absolutely enjoyed it.
30:06
It's certainly not the type of thing that I think every detective show was
30:11
going to be, but I do think that it is just a nice change
30:21
of pace, and it's one of the great variety that we're afforded here that
30:26
we can play series that are very different and all fit within the detective genre,
30:32
so you get different feels and flavors. This was just such a wonderfully
30:37
light script and Vincent Price just did a great job with it, and in
30:41
an episode again where nobody died, so very like I said, very different
30:47
but also very fun. All right, listener comments and feedback. Just a
30:52
couple on the Saint. Sue says love the Saint and Rebecca says, Vincent
30:56
Price is so cool? Is all right? Well, that will do it
31:03
for today. We'll be back tomorrow with Man from Homicide. In the meantime,
