0:02:53 > 0:02:55SHOT FIRED
0:03:04 > 0:03:06Come on, let's get out of here.
0:03:20 > 0:03:22Cabs are scarce tonight, aren't they?
0:03:22 > 0:03:28Escorts are scarce, too. One of yours came out of the main entrance just a few minutes before you.
0:03:28 > 0:03:32Your other escort, Mr Tommy Voss, is lying among the whispering palms.
0:03:32 > 0:03:34Potted, you might say.
0:03:34 > 0:03:37He tried to pot someone and someone else potted him.
0:03:37 > 0:03:39I don't know what you're talking about.
0:03:39 > 0:03:43I wouldn't run away, Miss Travers, because I know where you live. Who are you?
0:03:43 > 0:03:48Well, not the man who knows everything, just the man who knows the important things.
0:03:48 > 0:03:50You're important to me, so I know you.
0:03:50 > 0:03:52I've never even seen you before. You will again.
0:03:52 > 0:03:56I like you, I like this charming city. It reminds me of Naples in the spring.
0:03:56 > 0:03:59The only difference being that it's San Francisco in winter.
0:03:59 > 0:04:02That's quite a difference. But I shall see you often.
0:04:02 > 0:04:05Not if I can help it. I'll only follow you if you leave me.
0:04:05 > 0:04:08Or perhaps you'd prefer I had the police do it.
0:04:08 > 0:04:10I see they're getting rather active.
0:04:10 > 0:04:13All right, inside, please. Inside and stay in there.
0:04:13 > 0:04:17Don't let anybody in or out, Moriarty. All right, Sergeant, aye.
0:04:20 > 0:04:22Hey, you people just come out of this place?
0:04:22 > 0:04:27IRISH ACCENT: It was entering we were, Officer. But I says to myself, "Mr Callaghan,
0:04:27 > 0:04:30"I don't like the looks nor smell of the place."
0:04:30 > 0:04:31So it's Mr Callaghan here?
0:04:31 > 0:04:35Yes, and me father before me. And I says to Mrs Callaghan... Wait a minute.
0:04:35 > 0:04:39Is this your wife? Or the banns deceive us.
0:04:39 > 0:04:42And me thinking for a moment she looked like Val Travers,
0:04:42 > 0:04:46who's been making a hornet's nest out of this town, my apologies to you.
0:04:46 > 0:04:47And a happy new year. Thank you.
0:04:49 > 0:04:53And now it's home we're going, me darlin', whether you like it or not.
0:04:53 > 0:04:55Taxi!
0:05:00 > 0:05:03Number 17, Juliet Street.
0:05:07 > 0:05:09I suppose I should thank you.
0:05:09 > 0:05:13Oh, don't thank me, you'll be retracting it sooner or later. Why?
0:05:13 > 0:05:16Because I'm determined to make you hate me. Are you crazy?
0:05:16 > 0:05:22My mental longitude has given birth to such rumours, circulated entirely by dwarves, you understand.
0:05:22 > 0:05:29Go ahead, you're doing fine. I may do better if I tell you I sometimes lend my talents to the police.
0:05:29 > 0:05:32We had quite an open season on your kind in New York.
0:05:32 > 0:05:37You hate the police because they kicked your father out of the department.
0:05:37 > 0:05:40They found he was mixed up with the Waldman gang, didn't they?
0:05:40 > 0:05:44Tell me about it, Miss Travers. Why? You know the important things.
0:05:44 > 0:05:47No, I don't. That's why I wanted to make your acquaintance.
0:05:47 > 0:05:50You should invite me to your house. You'd find a surprising welcome(!)
0:05:50 > 0:05:56Really? In that case I'd better tell you my name is not Mr Callaghan.
0:05:56 > 0:05:58It is Simon Templar.
0:05:59 > 0:06:01The Saint.
0:06:10 > 0:06:14We interrupt this new year programme for a special news bulletin.
0:06:14 > 0:06:19Gang war flared again tonight, when Tommy Voss was mysteriously killed
0:06:19 > 0:06:21at the Colony Club in San Francisco.
0:06:21 > 0:06:24Tommy Voss was well-known in New York underworld circles,
0:06:24 > 0:06:29escaping grand jury indictments for the alleged killing of a police officer there last year.
0:06:29 > 0:06:30His killer tonight is unknown.
0:06:31 > 0:06:33We have just received a further bulletin.
0:06:33 > 0:06:37Simon Templar, known as The Saint, has been reported seen in the club
0:06:37 > 0:06:39at approximately the time of the Voss murder.
0:06:39 > 0:06:42When sought for questioning, he could not be found.
0:06:42 > 0:06:45This is Captain Taylor, get me the New York Police Department.
0:06:45 > 0:06:49San Francisco calling, San Francisco calling New York.
0:06:56 > 0:06:58Hello, San Francisco? This is New York.
0:06:58 > 0:06:59PHONE RINGS
0:07:00 > 0:07:01Yes?
0:07:01 > 0:07:04Yes, this is Vanson, New York Police.
0:07:06 > 0:07:07The Saint?
0:07:07 > 0:07:08You don't say.
0:07:08 > 0:07:14Yes, we can send you a man who can get to the bottom of whatever he's mixed up in out there.
0:07:14 > 0:07:15That's right.
0:07:15 > 0:07:20The only man in this country who knows The Saint very well is right here in our department.
0:07:20 > 0:07:22Inspector Henry Fernack.
0:07:30 > 0:07:31I've just read all about it, Henry.
0:07:31 > 0:07:36Why you concern yourself with something in San Francisco is beyond me.
0:07:36 > 0:07:39Haven't they enough policemen of their own without you?
0:07:39 > 0:07:44Orders is orders. A police commissioner's work can't be laid out for him by his wife. Oh.
0:07:44 > 0:07:49When The Saint worked for the New York Police Department, I was the best acquainted with him.
0:07:49 > 0:07:51You weren't fussy about your associations.
0:07:51 > 0:07:56He never victimised anybody except criminals. I'd trust him with my shirt.
0:07:56 > 0:08:00He's a criminal himself. When he's not working with the police, he's against them.
0:08:00 > 0:08:04He did lead them a merry chase in London and Paris last year, South America, too.
0:08:04 > 0:08:08But when they got down to cases, they couldn't pin one thing on him.
0:08:08 > 0:08:12Robbing people, and you stand up for him. Redistribution of ill gotten gains, he says.
0:08:12 > 0:08:16I never expected you to become fond of a man like that.
0:08:16 > 0:08:19Oh, I don't know, I was fond of Robin Hood when I was a boy.
0:08:19 > 0:08:23The Saint is really a very charming fella. I'll tell you what I'll do.
0:08:23 > 0:08:27I'll ask him to dinner sometime, then you'll see. Not in this house.
0:08:27 > 0:08:29All right, all right, now off to bed with you.
0:08:29 > 0:08:33I'll come to see you before I go. Did you pack your vitamin chart?
0:08:33 > 0:08:37Yes, dear. And remember you're allergic to shellfish. Yes, dear, I won't eat the shells.
0:08:37 > 0:08:42Betty, don't you ever think that I'm a lot more allergic to bullets?
0:08:42 > 0:08:44Yes, I think about it.
0:08:54 > 0:08:56WHISTLING
0:08:58 > 0:09:00The Saint! It can't be.
0:09:00 > 0:09:02Ah, but it is, Henry.
0:09:02 > 0:09:03How are you?
0:09:03 > 0:09:05Simon, I am glad to see you.
0:09:05 > 0:09:07But...you are not in San Francisco.
0:09:07 > 0:09:11San Francisco? I was under the impression we were in New York.
0:09:11 > 0:09:15I'm under the impression we're in my house. How did you get in? Through the front door.
0:09:15 > 0:09:18There are nasty people in this town, I should keep it locked.
0:09:18 > 0:09:21It was locked. Oh, was it? I don't remember.
0:09:21 > 0:09:24And you don't remember being in San Francisco either?
0:09:24 > 0:09:27Henry, you always believe what you read in the paper.
0:09:27 > 0:09:30I don't, but if there's a man-sized muss you're usually in it.
0:09:30 > 0:09:33Yes, they've had some trouble in the Rocky mountains.
0:09:33 > 0:09:37You've had a three-ring crime circus. San Francisco's not in the Rockies.
0:09:37 > 0:09:43Oh, that's right. The newspapers out there always confuse me with a tawdry contemporary of mine.
0:09:43 > 0:09:47Fellow called Waldman, nasty piece of work. But he's a clever chap.
0:09:47 > 0:09:51He's supposedly out there now operating as the head of crime ring.
0:09:51 > 0:09:54Did you ever get a look at this Waldman?
0:09:54 > 0:09:58Oh, Henry, you're surely not insinuating that I might be Waldman?
0:09:58 > 0:09:59I never insinuate, Templar.
0:09:59 > 0:10:03No, that's right, you don't, you're usually quite blunt.
0:10:03 > 0:10:06Your police records show no-one for sure has set eyes on Mr Waldman,
0:10:06 > 0:10:10unless it was Chief Inspector Travers of the San Francisco department.
0:10:10 > 0:10:13He was discharged for having been hooked with Waldman.
0:10:13 > 0:10:18Go on. For a guy who's never been to San Francisco, you're full of local colour.
0:10:18 > 0:10:20I get it all from the papers.
0:10:20 > 0:10:23How Travers committed suicide because of the disgrace,
0:10:23 > 0:10:27how Valerie Travers followed her father, outwitting the police at every turn.
0:10:27 > 0:10:32That's why I don't believe what I read, how could a girl as pretty as that be so clever?
0:10:32 > 0:10:37Course you couldn't have seen her, never having been out there? I've seen a picture.
0:10:37 > 0:10:41She was holding a cigarette in a slim, white hand and looked beautifully startled.
0:10:41 > 0:10:43I'm more interested in Mr Waldman.
0:10:43 > 0:10:47You wouldn't be changing your name now and then, would you?
0:10:47 > 0:10:49Oh, Henry, have I ever lied to you?
0:10:49 > 0:10:52No, I guess I was a little cruel. What are you doing?
0:10:52 > 0:10:55Helping you unpack. No, you don't, you can't do that to me, Simon.
0:10:55 > 0:10:58I have orders to go to San Francisco and, by golly, I'm going.
0:10:58 > 0:11:02That's fine, I'll go along with you to give you an excuse for going.
0:11:02 > 0:11:06Give myself an excuse to meet a girl who is much too pretty to be clever.
0:11:19 > 0:11:22Templar, oh, Templar.
0:11:22 > 0:11:26I'm sorry I even thought you were mixed up in that situation there.
0:11:26 > 0:11:29That's all right, I forgave you the moment you thought it.
0:11:29 > 0:11:33What happened to Tommy Voss sounded kinda like you. Did you know Voss?
0:11:33 > 0:11:38Yes, he killed Sergeant McElroy, beat the rap, same old story.
0:11:38 > 0:11:41He got what he deserved, didn't he?
0:11:41 > 0:11:43Goodnight.
0:11:43 > 0:11:45Goodnight.
0:11:46 > 0:11:48Pleasant dreams, Mr Templar. Oh, thank you.
0:11:48 > 0:11:51Much smoother than when we flew east yesterday.
0:11:51 > 0:11:55Yes, very smooth. Yeah, very smooth and there goes your alibi, Templar.
0:11:55 > 0:11:59No matter what Voss had coming, it'll be my duty to deliver you to the police.
0:11:59 > 0:12:02I'm sorry, Simon.
0:12:02 > 0:12:03We're both sorry.
0:12:03 > 0:12:06Don't forget, I'll keep my eye on you all the way.
0:12:06 > 0:12:09I shall be grateful to you, Henry, if you will.
0:12:10 > 0:12:16'Attention, please. Plane number four now arriving from New York, Washington and Memphis,
0:12:16 > 0:12:22'will leave in five minutes for El Paso, Los Angeles and San Francisco.'
0:12:38 > 0:12:40Well, we're in Fort Worth.
0:12:47 > 0:12:49Simon, come on, get up.
0:12:51 > 0:12:52Simon!
0:12:52 > 0:12:53Hey!
0:13:06 > 0:13:09Why didn't you tell me Mr Templar had left the plane?
0:13:09 > 0:13:11I'm sorry but you didn't say anything... Hah.
0:13:15 > 0:13:16Goodbye. Bye-bye.
0:13:18 > 0:13:21Here you are. Thank you.
0:13:26 > 0:13:28Your friend was looking for you, he went over there.
0:13:28 > 0:13:31He always likes to take a walk before breakfast.
0:13:31 > 0:13:33We can't hold up the schedule for him.
0:13:33 > 0:13:35Did you have a nice trip, ma'am? Splendid, James.
0:13:35 > 0:13:37And this is for you.
0:13:37 > 0:13:39That's what I need, a nickel.
0:13:39 > 0:13:42Hey! Oh, you'll get it back, I'm a police officer.
0:13:42 > 0:13:44Says you!
0:13:55 > 0:13:56Gimme police headquarters.
0:13:56 > 0:13:58..Yes, police headquarters, and quick.
0:13:58 > 0:14:02'Attention, please. Plane number four leaving gate two, in two minutes,
0:14:02 > 0:14:06'for El Paso, Los Angeles and San Francisco.'
0:14:09 > 0:14:11Hello, police headquarters?
0:14:11 > 0:14:14This is Inspector Fernack of the New York police.
0:14:14 > 0:14:17Simon Templar has just slipped off a plane at the airport here.
0:14:17 > 0:14:20..Yes, The Saint and he's gone hoodlum again.
0:14:20 > 0:14:24..Yes, now send a squad to search the airport, if he's spotted anywhere pick him up.
0:14:24 > 0:14:27..Yes, I'm at the airport. ..All right.
0:14:27 > 0:14:29Hey, Mister, there's something on your back.
0:14:42 > 0:14:45Hey, hey! Hold that plane!
0:14:48 > 0:14:50Hey! Hey! Come back here!
0:14:52 > 0:14:55When they get going, sir, they awfully hard to stop.
0:14:55 > 0:14:59They can't take off without me. Maybe not, but they're sure trying.
0:15:06 > 0:15:08"Dear Miss Travers,
0:15:08 > 0:15:13"I've finally summoned up enough courage to accept your kind invitation.
0:15:13 > 0:15:18"I shall drop in to see you this afternoon, at 4.30.
0:15:18 > 0:15:24"And please, don't make any special plans to entertain me.
0:15:24 > 0:15:29"Sentimentally yours, Simon Templar."
0:15:31 > 0:15:35Now here's the address, and you get that radiogrammed right off, please.
0:15:35 > 0:15:37Yes, Mr Templar.
0:15:51 > 0:15:53I'd like to see Miss Travers.
0:15:53 > 0:15:56What name, please? Simon Templar.
0:15:56 > 0:15:57I'll see him.
0:16:00 > 0:16:01I got your message.
0:16:01 > 0:16:03What do you want?
0:16:03 > 0:16:09A simple question, but the answer would involve complexities too numerous to discuss in a hallway.
0:16:09 > 0:16:12You may find my hospitality a little complex, too.
0:16:12 > 0:16:16Here he is. Oh, so you're the faithful friend, Mr...?
0:16:16 > 0:16:18Breck is the name, Allan Breck.
0:16:18 > 0:16:21And I'm quite a good friend of Miss Travers, if you make a point of it.
0:16:21 > 0:16:23Gallantly spoken.
0:16:23 > 0:16:27And where are those charming lads who infest nightclubs with you?
0:16:27 > 0:16:29Couldn't the police tell you where? I'm afraid not.
0:16:29 > 0:16:33The San Francisco police and I were never properly introduced.
0:16:33 > 0:16:38If you phone headquarters, they'll probably reward you for turning me in. We're not stool pigeons.
0:16:38 > 0:16:43You won't phone them because you know they won't be fooled by these sweet, suburban pretensions -
0:16:43 > 0:16:49a little commodious for a lowly police inspector's daughter, but cheerful, lovely furniture, tea,
0:16:49 > 0:16:52tennis... Oh, I beg your pardon. It's all right, Allan.
0:16:52 > 0:16:56Your near-sighted friend couldn't even hit a balloon in slow motion.
0:16:56 > 0:16:59Before my hospitality wears thin, Mr Templar, just what do you want?
0:16:59 > 0:17:03A brilliant gentleman named Waldman. I've never even met Waldman.
0:17:03 > 0:17:05Strange, he was your father's best friend.
0:17:05 > 0:17:08It's a lie, cooked up by someone in the police department.
0:17:08 > 0:17:12Believe me, if there's one person Miss Travers detests, it's Waldman.
0:17:12 > 0:17:16He framed her father's discharge from the department,
0:17:16 > 0:17:19simply because he was making it too hot for crime in this town.
0:17:19 > 0:17:22A delightful fable, but I don't believe it.
0:17:22 > 0:17:24What do you believe? That your father was guilty,
0:17:24 > 0:17:28and you have his knowledge of police methods and his bad associations.
0:17:28 > 0:17:31You really shouldn't be seen with a man like Tommy Voss.
0:17:31 > 0:17:33He was once connected with the Waldman crowd,
0:17:33 > 0:17:36he took me to the club to point one of them out.
0:17:36 > 0:17:39With his gun? Anyone connected with Waldman has no right to live.
0:17:39 > 0:17:41That's what I felt about Tommy Voss.
0:17:43 > 0:17:46And you think my father was the same species? Quite.
0:17:46 > 0:17:50I wonder why no-one's ever tried to remove you, Mr busybody?
0:17:50 > 0:17:52People have tried, never quite su...
0:17:54 > 0:17:56..succeeded somehow.
0:17:56 > 0:17:58But, er, there's still hope.
0:17:59 > 0:18:02He plays nicely for a copper, doesn't he?
0:18:03 > 0:18:07There's another man up the street with an ice-cream cart.
0:18:07 > 0:18:10There's ten in all spread around the block.
0:18:10 > 0:18:14I knew you were lying when you said you weren't with the police. No, you weren't sure.
0:18:14 > 0:18:19No matter how angry I make you, you can't afford to have a shot heard from this house.
0:18:21 > 0:18:27Mr Templar! I'm very sorry, but under certain conditions I can't resist the temptation to be a cad.
0:18:27 > 0:18:31I can see by this gentleman's manner that he's never kissed you, but would like to.
0:18:31 > 0:18:33Get out of here. I will.
0:18:33 > 0:18:38As you get to know me better, you'll realise I have moments of almost maudlin sentimentality.
0:18:38 > 0:18:42Actually we're quite alike - you can't live without adventure, and neither can I.
0:18:42 > 0:18:46You wouldn't understand that, Mr Breck? No, I'm afraid not.
0:18:46 > 0:18:51There our likeness ends. I could forgive your meddling, but not what you said about my father.
0:18:51 > 0:18:55Will you do something drastic about it? Soon you'll be talked of in the past tense.
0:18:55 > 0:18:58Good, I'll compose a nice obituary for myself.
0:18:58 > 0:19:00You won't keep me in suspense? No.
0:19:02 > 0:19:06Can I depend on that? Completely. Thank you.
0:19:11 > 0:19:15So that was The Saint. If I could only get my hands... Oh, keep quiet.
0:19:17 > 0:19:21I want you to sing a serenade to the lady who lives there.
0:19:21 > 0:19:24Sing for the lady in there? That's right, can you sing this?
0:19:24 > 0:19:26I wonder if he was bluffing.
0:19:26 > 0:19:28We'll soon find out.
0:19:31 > 0:19:33MUSIC STARTS
0:19:33 > 0:19:35He wasn't bluffing.
0:19:35 > 0:19:37That cover's gonna sing now.
0:19:39 > 0:19:45# Here is a fella who wants to tell a lady who is a-grand
0:19:45 > 0:19:52# Praisin' her beauty, hardly ever travel a-hand in hand
0:19:52 > 0:19:56# She would find it better
0:19:56 > 0:20:00# If she didn't try to think
0:20:00 > 0:20:03# What better a-luck next time he said
0:20:03 > 0:20:06# He's a-going to get a drink. #
0:20:11 > 0:20:14Stop grinning. And get away from the window!
0:20:20 > 0:20:22PHONE RINGS Hello.
0:20:22 > 0:20:24Hello there, beautiful.
0:20:24 > 0:20:27If that serenade is annoying you, just call a policeman.
0:20:27 > 0:20:30I'd do it for you except that I haven't seen one all day,
0:20:30 > 0:20:33and the ones in this town don't like me.
0:20:38 > 0:20:39Who was it?
0:20:39 > 0:20:42The Saint.
0:20:42 > 0:20:44He might have been bluffing,
0:20:44 > 0:20:46but I wasn't.
0:21:11 > 0:21:12Good morning, Henry.
0:21:12 > 0:21:17I checked when your plane was arriving. Breakfast is about ready.
0:21:17 > 0:21:19You got a lot of cheek, Templar.
0:21:19 > 0:21:24You've got some yourself wearing that outfit. If I'd been there, I'd have helped you improve it.
0:21:24 > 0:21:27There are some people I want to see before you turn me in.
0:21:27 > 0:21:30The police will be as glad to see you today as yesterday. Come in.
0:21:32 > 0:21:35Good morning, sir. Good morning.
0:21:35 > 0:21:39Algernon, did you find the inspector's diet chart in his luggage? Yes.
0:21:39 > 0:21:45Algernon? Yes, I submitted several names to him and that's the one he liked best.
0:21:45 > 0:21:49Now sit down, Henry, and have a hearty breakfast.
0:21:49 > 0:21:53Ham and eggs, the best thing that's happened to me since yesterday morning.
0:21:53 > 0:21:55Oh, no, you don't, it isn't good for your diet.
0:21:55 > 0:21:58I'm determined to get in the good graces of your wife.
0:21:58 > 0:22:00Some nice prunes for you.
0:22:00 > 0:22:02The only other thing I want you to do for me,
0:22:02 > 0:22:05is to get into a decent outfit before we go to police headquarters.
0:22:05 > 0:22:09I wouldn't be seen on the gallows with you in that array.
0:22:09 > 0:22:12You won't be so particular after you get your head shaved.
0:22:12 > 0:22:14Some nice fresh cream for the prunes.
0:22:14 > 0:22:17Prunes. And you won't be having any cream with them either.
0:22:17 > 0:22:19What goes on here?
0:22:19 > 0:22:22Algernon, bring me that milk bottle. Yes.
0:22:26 > 0:22:30Doesn't it strike you as being rather chilly for milk to curdle so quickly?
0:22:30 > 0:22:33It strikes me I'm being done out of my breakfast.
0:22:33 > 0:22:35If I saved you from being poisoned,
0:22:35 > 0:22:38you might conveniently forget that this isn't my first trip west.
0:22:38 > 0:22:40What's all this bunk about poison?
0:22:40 > 0:22:43I shall be disappointed in her if it is bunk. Her, who?
0:22:43 > 0:22:46If isn't true, I shall throw away that lantern in disgust.
0:22:46 > 0:22:48Lantern?! Looks like a milk bottle.
0:22:48 > 0:22:50I'm sorry, Henry, but it's a lantern.
0:22:50 > 0:22:54and I am Diogenes, who thinks he's discovered an honest woman.
0:22:58 > 0:23:01You're right, there's enough in that to fill the morgue.
0:23:01 > 0:23:03Here's the analysis, Commissioner.
0:23:03 > 0:23:06We'll pick up the milkmen on that round. I wouldn't.
0:23:06 > 0:23:09It was put in after he left the bottle. How do you know?
0:23:09 > 0:23:11Because I know who had it put in.
0:23:11 > 0:23:15Before I go into that, I want you to know that I called on Miss Travers yesterday.
0:23:15 > 0:23:20As a result, I'm convinced you're wasting time trying to link her to Waldman's activities.
0:23:20 > 0:23:23You surprise me, Mr Templar. Here's another surprise.
0:23:23 > 0:23:26It's my theory that her father was framed by Waldman,
0:23:26 > 0:23:29and someone with access to the inside of your police department.
0:23:29 > 0:23:32I don't know who you are, but I think we know our job.
0:23:32 > 0:23:35You need to know more than that to get to the bottom of this.
0:23:35 > 0:23:38You gathered all this from one talk with Miss Travers?
0:23:38 > 0:23:40Yes, she's a woman of resolute purpose.
0:23:40 > 0:23:43She's pretty enough to make you believe anything.
0:23:43 > 0:23:45She's had this whole town in an uproar.
0:23:45 > 0:23:49Jail deliveries, raids spoiled by tip-offs, banditry,
0:23:49 > 0:23:52right in my own house while a party was going on.
0:23:52 > 0:23:53Why don't you arrest her?
0:23:53 > 0:23:57She's full of airtight alibis, she got that training from her father.
0:23:57 > 0:23:59Not from her father, but because of him.
0:23:59 > 0:24:04She thinks he got a bad deal from the police so she enlisted a bunch of crooks to annoy you.
0:24:04 > 0:24:06So far she's accomplished it neatly.
0:24:06 > 0:24:10Yes, but Inspector Fernack and I can break up her organisation,
0:24:10 > 0:24:12and get Waldman into the bargain.
0:24:12 > 0:24:15Would you mind introducing us to this modest young man?
0:24:15 > 0:24:20I beg your pardon. Mr Cullis, the celebrated criminologist.
0:24:20 > 0:24:22And Chief Inspector Webster.
0:24:22 > 0:24:24Gentlemen, meet The Saint. Hi.
0:24:26 > 0:24:29Show them into the office I arranged for Inspector Fernack.
0:24:29 > 0:24:32Good luck, call on us for anything you want.
0:24:34 > 0:24:39I don't mean to criticise... That fellow is notorious, you can't be serious.
0:24:39 > 0:24:40He proved his worth in New York.
0:24:40 > 0:24:45Gentlemen, sometimes where there is gangrene, a red-hot iron is the best cure.
0:24:45 > 0:24:49Did it occur to you that Waldman may just be a handy name for The Saint?
0:24:49 > 0:24:52When the Central Trust was tapped for $90,000,
0:24:52 > 0:24:56every move on that job was geared to The Saint's method.
0:24:56 > 0:25:01Theories. If you really believe that bunk, you have him in the perfect spot to keep your eyes on him.
0:25:01 > 0:25:03That's all, gentlemen.
0:25:04 > 0:25:05Thank you.
0:25:06 > 0:25:11This is very nice. Could you get me the Colony Club, please.
0:25:11 > 0:25:14Right. Colony Club? Yes, you'll find out why.
0:25:14 > 0:25:16Operator? Colony Club, please.
0:25:16 > 0:25:19Nice speech you made in there, what are you up to now?
0:25:19 > 0:25:22What's the difference? You want to grab Waldman, don't you?
0:25:22 > 0:25:25You'll be the most famous man in America. Hello, Colony Club?
0:25:25 > 0:25:28Police Department calling, just a minute, please.
0:25:28 > 0:25:33Hello. I want some information out of you bozos.
0:25:33 > 0:25:36Bozos? The right word in the right place.
0:25:36 > 0:25:41Yes, bozos. You remember the night Tommy Voss was knocked off at your place?
0:25:41 > 0:25:44..Well, he had a reserved table there.
0:25:44 > 0:25:48..See if you can remember whose table he asked to be placed next to.
0:25:48 > 0:25:50..Well, check your list.
0:25:50 > 0:25:56..Now, listen, you give me the information I want or I'll flit over there and shake your joint up.
0:25:56 > 0:25:58Down, sir. Oh, down, thank you.
0:25:58 > 0:26:00Now, hello?
0:26:00 > 0:26:03..Voss ordered his table next to Eastman.
0:26:03 > 0:26:05..Martin Eastman.
0:26:05 > 0:26:08Who's Eastman? Oh, everybody knows Mr Eastman.
0:26:08 > 0:26:11You'll pardon me, but we mustn't annoy Mr Eastman.
0:26:11 > 0:26:13Here's all the dope, here.
0:26:13 > 0:26:15Eastman, Eastman.
0:26:15 > 0:26:17Begins with an E, doesn't it?
0:26:43 > 0:26:45Thank you, Travers. Miss Travers.
0:26:45 > 0:26:49You'll be plain "Travers" to the judge if you don't stay away from my milk.
0:26:53 > 0:26:56Like to know a secret, Travers? Not from you.
0:26:56 > 0:26:59Oh, but you've made telling the truth very dear to me.
0:26:59 > 0:27:01Listen carefully, I AM with the police.
0:27:01 > 0:27:02Shall I drive on, Miss Travers?
0:27:02 > 0:27:05As for you, you vegetable-eared son of a misanthropy,
0:27:05 > 0:27:08if I catch you loitering here with your lights on,
0:27:08 > 0:27:11I'll polish the pavement with you. Gee, would ya? Drive on.
0:27:26 > 0:27:29HE WHISTLES
0:27:35 > 0:27:37What have you got there?
0:27:37 > 0:27:39There is something in that house she wants.
0:27:39 > 0:27:43I caught him trying to jimmy the window. I was waiting for a friend.
0:27:43 > 0:27:47Was the friend Miss Travers? Speak up, if you know what's good for you.
0:27:47 > 0:27:52Yeah, Travers, there's a wad of money in the safe she wants. Good, I'll help you get it.
0:27:52 > 0:27:56You'll help me get it? I never seen such a cop.
0:27:56 > 0:27:59Nor you never will again, I won't stand for it.
0:27:59 > 0:28:02Now, now, Henry. You go and wait in the car.
0:28:02 > 0:28:03You've got to trust me.
0:28:09 > 0:28:14Hey. What's your name, in case the winds of destiny waft us apart?
0:28:14 > 0:28:16Dyson, sir, Zipper Dyson.
0:28:16 > 0:28:18Zipper, are you good at your trade?
0:28:18 > 0:28:21Am I! All right, my friend, then follow me.
0:28:41 > 0:28:43Cut that wire.
0:29:40 > 0:29:42HE OPENS SAFE
0:29:55 > 0:29:56WINDOW OPENS
0:30:48 > 0:30:52Brown!
0:30:56 > 0:30:58Brown!
0:31:02 > 0:31:05Hello? Hello! Hello!
0:31:08 > 0:31:10Hello!
0:31:11 > 0:31:12Hello! Hello!
0:31:12 > 0:31:15What's the matter, sir? Burglars, now the line is dead.
0:31:15 > 0:31:19Don't stand there like a fool! Have my car brought around, at once!
0:31:19 > 0:31:22I must get to the police. Very good, sir.
0:31:25 > 0:31:28I'll say once again, I've never seen such a cop.
0:31:28 > 0:31:32I have another job for you. Go to the Travers's house and be my special representative.
0:31:32 > 0:31:35My silent partner, if you know what I mean.
0:31:35 > 0:31:38Oh, me conscience wouldn't permit me to do that, sir.
0:31:39 > 0:31:42But I'll do it, though it's against me principles.
0:31:42 > 0:31:45Besides, you're a man after me own heart.
0:31:45 > 0:31:50Tell them I caught you but couldn't make you squeal, and that you hate me because I gave you a black eye.
0:31:50 > 0:31:54Yes, but I haven't a black eye, sir. Well, we can rectify that. How?
0:31:54 > 0:31:56Just look up there.
0:31:59 > 0:32:02There. Now I can guarantee you'll have a black eye.
0:32:02 > 0:32:04Goodnight.
0:32:11 > 0:32:14Don't shut the door. Why not?
0:32:14 > 0:32:18I've got a reason. If you took anything from that house, Templar...
0:32:18 > 0:32:20Give me the Sergeant's desk.
0:32:20 > 0:32:23If there had been a robbery, it would have been reported by now.
0:32:23 > 0:32:26Yeah, give me that telephone. ..Yes, Sergeant.
0:32:26 > 0:32:29Did a Mr Eastman report a burglary tonight?
0:32:29 > 0:32:31..No? ..Oh, I'm sorry.
0:32:31 > 0:32:33..That's all right, just forget about it.
0:32:33 > 0:32:38That's very well but don't tell me Eastman was shooting at clay pigeons. Quiet.
0:32:38 > 0:32:41Good evening, Mr Eastman. Oh, er, good evening.
0:32:44 > 0:32:47If there wasn't a robbery, why is he here?
0:32:47 > 0:32:51Going into Cullis's office. You did take something out of that house.
0:32:51 > 0:32:54Well, I can promise you one thing, Eastman isn't going to report it.
0:32:54 > 0:32:58Why not? Because there were 80 federal reserve notes in that safe for $1,000 each.
0:32:58 > 0:33:04They had the serial numbers of the money stolen from the Central Trust. Eastman is in the Waldman ring?
0:33:04 > 0:33:07He's a false front for them. The money was too... Too hot! Yes.
0:33:07 > 0:33:10If Cullis is in it too, we can grab them right now!
0:33:10 > 0:33:14You don't want to scare Waldman off. One of them might be Waldman. Anybody might be.
0:33:14 > 0:33:19Yeah, anybody(!) Look, Templar, didn't you take that 80 grand out of Eastman's house?
0:33:19 > 0:33:23Oh, now, Henry, do you think I'd do a thing like that? Yes!
0:33:23 > 0:33:25So do I.
0:33:25 > 0:33:29We'll have a showdown on this now! You, Eastman and Cullis doing the talking.
0:33:29 > 0:33:32I warn you, you'll only upset the applecart.
0:33:50 > 0:33:54I believe you left a message at the desk, you wanted to speak with me?
0:33:54 > 0:33:58That's right. The Commissioner told me you had an unusual memory.
0:33:58 > 0:34:01Won't you sit down? As a matter of fact, I haven't time, very late...
0:34:01 > 0:34:07I wonder if you remember the serial numbers of the money found in possession of Inspector Travers?
0:34:07 > 0:34:11Certainly. But you could have them from the files. I haven't had time.
0:34:11 > 0:34:14Well, that disappearing key trick's rather good.
0:34:14 > 0:34:16That's just a hobby of mine. Really?
0:34:16 > 0:34:20Amateur magic. It's a hobby of mine too, we must get together more often.
0:34:20 > 0:34:24Would you be so kind as to give me a memo of those numbers?
0:34:24 > 0:34:25Why, certainly.
0:34:25 > 0:34:29And tell me, is it true that you linked Waldman with Travers
0:34:29 > 0:34:32by tapping Travers's private office phone?
0:34:32 > 0:34:36Exactly. Would it have been possible for someone else to use the phone?
0:34:36 > 0:34:38Yourself, perhaps? Yes(!)
0:34:38 > 0:34:44Yes, it's very possible that the money we found in Travers's box was put there by Captain Kidd(!)
0:34:44 > 0:34:46There's a nice little disappearing trick for you.
0:34:46 > 0:34:48You could probably do it yourself.
0:34:48 > 0:34:53After you'd done it, you could take it out of your ear, or Travers's safe deposit box,
0:34:53 > 0:34:55with lots of people watching you.
0:34:55 > 0:34:59Go ahead, Templar, keep on kidding yourself with these absurd notions.
0:34:59 > 0:35:01But don't bother me with them, I'm busy.
0:35:01 > 0:35:03Oh, just a moment.
0:35:03 > 0:35:05That's valuable, if you don't mind.
0:35:05 > 0:35:07Oh, so sorry. Thanks.
0:35:10 > 0:35:13The little trick of the disappearing numbers.
0:35:13 > 0:35:16I bet the ones he planted on Travers came out of this very same bundle.
0:35:16 > 0:35:18Yes, right again, Henry.
0:35:18 > 0:35:23Nice magic, Templar, but you're not trying to garble the facts by slinging dirt at other people?
0:35:23 > 0:35:28You get some sleep, Henry, I'll visit Miss Travers, before Cullis gets there.
0:35:28 > 0:35:31Where you go, I go, till I see how far you're going with that money.
0:35:31 > 0:35:33All right. Have it your own way.
0:35:33 > 0:35:36Er, turn out the light, will you, Henry?
0:35:36 > 0:35:39What for? I'll explain later.
0:35:45 > 0:35:48I've got a little scheme.
0:35:49 > 0:35:52A very interesting little scheme. HE SHOOTS
0:35:54 > 0:35:56Who are you shooting at?
0:35:58 > 0:36:00Hey, come back here!
0:36:00 > 0:36:03Unlock that door, let me out of here!
0:36:03 > 0:36:05I forgot to tell you, I'm calling on Miss Travers alone.
0:36:05 > 0:36:08You're sticking with her and that dough.
0:36:08 > 0:36:10Hello? Hello?
0:36:10 > 0:36:13This is Fernack, send a radio car to the Travers house,
0:36:13 > 0:36:16pick up Simon Templar the moment he tries to enter the house.
0:36:16 > 0:36:19Say, send somebody to let me out of my office, will you?
0:36:19 > 0:36:23..Yes, out of my office! I'm...I'm locked in.
0:36:26 > 0:36:29Looks like someone throwed a slug into it. Get me another car!
0:36:29 > 0:36:33They're all out right now. Number 25's due, but you'll have to wait.
0:36:33 > 0:36:36Call me at my office as soon as it comes back. Yes, sir.
0:36:45 > 0:36:47What a rainbow!
0:36:47 > 0:36:48He done it himself?
0:36:48 > 0:36:51If he'd had an axe, he'd have used it on me.
0:36:51 > 0:36:53Oh, he's a merciless man.
0:36:53 > 0:36:58"Did Miss Travers send you round to this house to take some valuables?" Said he.
0:36:58 > 0:37:04"Upon me honour," said I, "I was taking a short cut across Walnut Street because cement hurts my feet."
0:37:04 > 0:37:05What a souvenir!
0:37:05 > 0:37:08You raised a rumpus that almost got me slammed off.
0:37:08 > 0:37:12You can take that up with The Saint. I will if he ever comes in throwing distance again.
0:37:12 > 0:37:15That hair trigger will get you into trouble, Darnell.
0:37:15 > 0:37:20And it'll get Val into trouble. Are you sure Eastman didn't get a look at you? Sure.
0:37:20 > 0:37:23If what you think of Eastman is true, he's no spot the squawk.
0:37:23 > 0:37:27We'd have found out if we hadn't bungled. We'd have been on our way...
0:37:27 > 0:37:28To making a lot of dough?
0:37:30 > 0:37:32You don't have to tell me that.
0:37:32 > 0:37:35I was interested only in the numbers on that money.
0:37:35 > 0:37:38Maybe I don't believe you. Watch what you're saying, Darnell!
0:37:38 > 0:37:40I'll say what I please.
0:37:42 > 0:37:45Val, I'm afraid you've asked for all this.
0:37:45 > 0:37:47Why don't you pack up and move out?
0:37:47 > 0:37:50I've thought of that. That's what your father would want you to do.
0:37:50 > 0:37:53My father said you'd be a great attorney some day.
0:37:53 > 0:37:57Whatever happened to it? You're just a nice busybody giving me a daily sermon.
0:37:57 > 0:38:02We used to talk about you, Val, your father and I, how I'd gather glory and lay it in your hands.
0:38:02 > 0:38:06Now you find they're rather soiled. But it's not too late.
0:38:06 > 0:38:08So far they have nothing on you.
0:38:08 > 0:38:11We could start a new game, not a spite game.
0:38:11 > 0:38:14Maybe it's just that I'm tired.
0:38:14 > 0:38:21You almost won an argument. We could go away, any place, it doesn't matter.
0:38:21 > 0:38:24With you I could make good anywhere. With me, Allan? Uh-huh.
0:38:24 > 0:38:27That's a point that'll take a lot of arguing.
0:39:28 > 0:39:30Allow me.
0:39:30 > 0:39:33It would be rather precarious to let you have a gun to play with.
0:39:33 > 0:39:36But as you have your share of feminine curiosity,
0:39:36 > 0:39:40you won't shoot me till you hear why I came through that window. Be a miracle if I don't.
0:39:40 > 0:39:45A Mr Cullis is on his way because he suspects you filched a bundle of velvet
0:39:45 > 0:39:48from the home of a fellow miscreant named Eastman.
0:39:48 > 0:39:50So what? Mr Cullis doesn't want the police here,
0:39:50 > 0:39:53he'd much rather submit you to the coroner.
0:39:53 > 0:39:58Because he suspects you purloined the velvet to incriminate him with some serial numbers on it.
0:39:58 > 0:40:00Why are you telling me all this?
0:40:00 > 0:40:03Because... Well, because I love you.
0:40:03 > 0:40:06But don't let's get sticky about it, I'm really a very shallow person.
0:40:06 > 0:40:09I also love fireflies and mocking birds and pink sunsets.
0:40:09 > 0:40:15I think, however, that we could find each other more diverting than a pink sunset, don't you?
0:40:15 > 0:40:18I dislike you intensely. No, you don't, you're very fond of me.
0:40:18 > 0:40:20Why should I be fond of you?
0:40:20 > 0:40:23Tell me and you'll answer the riddle of the world.
0:40:23 > 0:40:27My dear Val, that is what has made history, literature and even chemistry -
0:40:27 > 0:40:29a man and a woman.
0:40:30 > 0:40:31The Saint.
0:40:31 > 0:40:36There's a police car outside. We knew he couldn't be far away. You're wasting valuable time.
0:40:36 > 0:40:39You didn't waste any time slapping me around, did you?
0:40:39 > 0:40:42Using your copper's authority to abuse a harmless citizen.
0:40:42 > 0:40:45If you were half smart, you'd have done a better job,
0:40:45 > 0:40:50because, so help me son, I'm going to lay you on the breaks. No, you don't.
0:40:50 > 0:40:52Not lining up with the police, are you?
0:40:52 > 0:40:55No, I'm not, in spite of his pretty talk.
0:40:55 > 0:40:58Go ahead and tell them what I said. I'd love to hear you say it.
0:40:58 > 0:41:02Some fantastic tale about Cullis coming here. He's nothing on us.
0:41:02 > 0:41:06Were you lying when you said you didn't touch Eastman's money? Not even close to it.
0:41:06 > 0:41:10If this bird thinks he can hang this on me... Let me give it to him.
0:41:10 > 0:41:15If there were such a miracle that you were telling the truth, I'd be surprised but grateful.
0:41:15 > 0:41:19As for you, don't do a thing till you get your orders from me, understand?
0:41:32 > 0:41:34What's the matter now?
0:41:37 > 0:41:38It's Cullis!
0:41:45 > 0:41:47He's right, Cullis is here.
0:41:50 > 0:41:52I get it now. If you use that gun, you'll be taken in.
0:41:52 > 0:41:56I'll be taken in anyway. You sold them the idea I took that dough.
0:41:56 > 0:41:57So you're gonna get yours, right now.
0:41:57 > 0:41:58So you're gonna get yours, SHOT FIRED
0:42:06 > 0:42:08Now, I think you'll let me get you out of here.
0:42:08 > 0:42:10If I can.
0:42:12 > 0:42:14KNOCKING AT DOOR
0:42:19 > 0:42:22Don't ask me how I got in, Breck, you can help us by detaining Cullis.
0:42:22 > 0:42:27She just shot Darnell. Running away will convict her, Val, I can work this out if you'd stay.
0:42:27 > 0:42:32She shot him in front of witnesses. And witnesses want to get away fast. Here's the gun.
0:42:32 > 0:42:33Come on, let's get going.
0:42:33 > 0:42:36Break it down. Come on, let's go.
0:42:36 > 0:42:38BANGING ON DOOR
0:43:02 > 0:43:04This is Breck, sir.
0:43:04 > 0:43:07Your misplaced loyalty has lead you into serious trouble, Mr Breck.
0:43:07 > 0:43:12Maybe you know, some banknotes stolen from Martin Eastman have been traced to this house.
0:43:12 > 0:43:14I'm sure you're mistaken.
0:43:14 > 0:43:17The Travers dame got out the back, they jumped me.
0:43:17 > 0:43:21Shall I phone him to broadcast? No, not yet.
0:43:21 > 0:43:24Mr Cullis is right, you'd only be broadcasting a libel.
0:43:24 > 0:43:27Val Travers has never seen that money.
0:43:27 > 0:43:29Where is Harry Darnell?
0:43:29 > 0:43:32Upstairs. I killed him.
0:43:32 > 0:43:34Self-defence.
0:43:37 > 0:43:38Take him down and book him.
0:43:38 > 0:43:40I'll have a look upstairs.
0:43:41 > 0:43:43Where's Templar? Where's Simon Templar?
0:43:43 > 0:43:45He made a getaway with the Travers girl.
0:43:45 > 0:43:47He got away with much more than that.
0:43:47 > 0:43:50He got away with 80,000 bucks out of Eastman's safe.
0:43:50 > 0:43:53What? I saw it on him.
0:43:55 > 0:43:58Sorry, Mr Cullis, it seems that I'm the one mistaken about somebody.
0:43:58 > 0:44:01I'll phone them to broadcast. Right.
0:44:03 > 0:44:05That guy is making a monkey out of me.
0:44:07 > 0:44:10A first-class monkey.
0:44:10 > 0:44:12He was kind of a swell guy in some ways.
0:44:12 > 0:44:17Oh, he took me in all right, but I don't want you to get the idea I was completely tossed, I wasn't.
0:44:17 > 0:44:20I've had a theory for some time. Another theory.
0:44:20 > 0:44:25The mastermind you overheard Travers phoning to was The Saint, no other. Travers called him Waldman.
0:44:25 > 0:44:28Call him anything you like, same guy, same theory.
0:44:28 > 0:44:32I presume that's why you acted quickly without filing a police report, Mr Cullis?
0:44:32 > 0:44:36With The Saint around, a general alarm was impractical. Seems you were right.
0:44:36 > 0:44:41The only one here more stupid than me is the man who kept such a large sum in his home.
0:44:41 > 0:44:44That is my privilege, sir.
0:44:44 > 0:44:48Mr Cullis and I will check the details at your house in the morning, Mr Eastman.
0:44:48 > 0:44:52Locking the barn after the horse is stolen, this is a fine situation(!)
0:44:54 > 0:44:57Have you been able to get anything out of this Breck?
0:44:57 > 0:45:01No, except he's the lawyer who's helped Val Travers plan her moves.
0:45:01 > 0:45:06He was sweet on her until she left with The Saint and the dough. Probably trying to take the rap.
0:45:06 > 0:45:09Exactly and now he refuses to sign it.
0:45:09 > 0:45:12I believe if I had time, I could get him to talk.
0:45:12 > 0:45:16Let Cullis have him for a few days.
0:45:16 > 0:45:18In the meantime, I'm going home.
0:45:18 > 0:45:20Not that I expect to sleep.
0:45:26 > 0:45:28Good morning, sir.
0:45:30 > 0:45:33I served coffee to the gentleman in the guest room,
0:45:33 > 0:45:35he said he'd be down for breakfast. What gentleman?
0:45:35 > 0:45:38A very pleasant gentleman, full of quips and twigs.
0:45:38 > 0:45:42One of the guests I presume you brought in last night. What guests?!
0:45:42 > 0:45:44Don't you recall what guests?
0:45:44 > 0:45:45Call the police somehow.
0:45:45 > 0:45:49He doesn't really want you to call the police, Trockmorton,
0:45:49 > 0:45:51My name is Brown, sir. I prefer Throckmorton.
0:45:51 > 0:45:53Get out of here, Brown.
0:45:56 > 0:45:59How did you get in here? Just walked in.
0:45:59 > 0:46:02A criminal always returns to the scene of his crime.
0:46:02 > 0:46:04What do you want? I want to have some breakfast.
0:46:04 > 0:46:06Will you join me?
0:46:06 > 0:46:08Come on.
0:46:23 > 0:46:25Keep moving.
0:46:27 > 0:46:30Morning, Mr Eastman, hope you slept well. Lovely morning, isn't it?
0:46:30 > 0:46:34It's the most dreadful morning I've ever seen! You haven't seen anything yet.
0:46:34 > 0:46:37DOORBELL RINGS Now just keep quiet.
0:46:43 > 0:46:47Is Eastman in? Yes, sir. Tell him Inspector Webster and Mr Cullis are here. The police.
0:46:47 > 0:46:51Er, yes, sir. I understand, sir. Will you take a seat in here, sir?
0:46:51 > 0:46:52Yeah.
0:46:53 > 0:46:57All right, Mr Eastman, you can go ahead and entertain your guests,
0:46:57 > 0:46:59but don't be too indiscreet, will you?
0:46:59 > 0:47:02I'll be keeping a fatherly eye on you from here. Go on.
0:47:07 > 0:47:11Mr Cullis and a police officer to see you, sir. All right, you can go.
0:47:13 > 0:47:15Good morning, Martin. Not a trace of them yet.
0:47:15 > 0:47:18Every road out of town is being watched.
0:47:18 > 0:47:22I can't imagine where they've gone. What's the matter with you?
0:47:22 > 0:47:24Me? Er, nothing.
0:47:24 > 0:47:27Shock of my loss, I suppose, and all the rest of it, I...
0:47:27 > 0:47:31We'll have a look at the safe. That's hardly necessary, is it?
0:47:31 > 0:47:35Just one of the customary details, Mr Eastman. Oh, all right. It's over here.
0:47:35 > 0:47:39Nothing was disturbed, this chest was where you see it now.
0:47:39 > 0:47:41There's the safe. Was it forced open?
0:47:41 > 0:47:45No. It was definitely done by someone who...
0:47:45 > 0:47:48who knew the...combination.
0:47:52 > 0:47:54Why...
0:47:56 > 0:47:57Here it is.
0:47:57 > 0:48:00Is that the missing money?
0:48:00 > 0:48:03You're due for some fast explaining, Eastman.
0:48:03 > 0:48:07We have trouble enough without idiots like you yelling "wolf" to watch us scamper.
0:48:07 > 0:48:09Well, speak up.
0:48:09 > 0:48:12I tell you, it was stolen, last night.
0:48:12 > 0:48:15He fired at me, I fired back at him.
0:48:15 > 0:48:17You can see where the bullet struck.
0:48:23 > 0:48:26I just about have your number, Eastman.
0:48:26 > 0:48:29I wasn't lying, what reason could I have had?
0:48:29 > 0:48:34How should I know? People have reported false thefts to get out of paying obligations.
0:48:35 > 0:48:38In most cases, it cost them more than they saved.
0:48:38 > 0:48:40Cullis, you see, I...
0:48:43 > 0:48:45I went on a wild goose chase,
0:48:45 > 0:48:50believed that crazy story Fernack told about seeing The Saint packing that money around.
0:48:52 > 0:48:54There's a bullet hole all right.
0:48:56 > 0:49:00You'll be summoned, Eastman, better get your explanation straight.
0:49:00 > 0:49:01Let's go.
0:49:04 > 0:49:07Cullis. Well? Cullis, I can...
0:49:07 > 0:49:10There's nothing to say.
0:49:11 > 0:49:14You'll never have anything to say, Martin.
0:49:19 > 0:49:23I must congratulate you, Mr Eastman, you really behaved very nicely.
0:49:23 > 0:49:28You put that money back in the safe, you knew what Cullis would think if he found it. You planned this.
0:49:28 > 0:49:32Flattery is unnecessary. You're lucky Mr Webster didn't examine it too closely.
0:49:32 > 0:49:35But that will come out when they subpoena you, don't worry.
0:49:35 > 0:49:37You knew this would mean my finish.
0:49:37 > 0:49:42You've finished many other people. Tell us what happened to my father. I don't know!
0:49:42 > 0:49:45I won't talk, not to anybody.
0:49:45 > 0:49:49Now don't keep us in suspense, Mr Eastman, otherwise we won't keep you in suspense.
0:49:49 > 0:49:51Either you talk nicely, or else...
0:49:51 > 0:49:53Ah, how's the telephone system?
0:49:53 > 0:49:55I can break it or make it, sir.
0:49:55 > 0:49:57I've just...made it.
0:49:57 > 0:49:59How very thoughtful of you.
0:49:59 > 0:50:04The telephone is, perhaps, one of man's most important contributions to the scheme of things.
0:50:04 > 0:50:06Give me the police department.
0:50:06 > 0:50:09You've got a chance to clear out if you talk to us. No!
0:50:09 > 0:50:11..Hello? This is The Saint.
0:50:11 > 0:50:13..Don't get excited. I'm at the Eastman house.
0:50:13 > 0:50:15Just send out the coroner.
0:50:15 > 0:50:18That is unless Mr Eastman wishes to divulge some facts.
0:50:18 > 0:50:20No!
0:50:21 > 0:50:24Hello, the reason I suggested the coroner was because
0:50:24 > 0:50:27if Mr Eastman stays in this house, he may die of high blood pressure.
0:50:27 > 0:50:33Whereas if he leaves the house, I'm quite sure you'll need the coroner.
0:50:33 > 0:50:34Don't go out, Pinky!
0:50:34 > 0:50:36SHOT FIRED
0:50:39 > 0:50:41Here's the latest bulletin.
0:50:41 > 0:50:44Mr Eastman has just left the house.
0:51:02 > 0:51:05Here we are. No shenanigans, Templar.
0:51:05 > 0:51:08Ah, Valerie, this is the great Inspector Fernack.
0:51:08 > 0:51:12I knew I'd find you here, no other gendarme would think I'd get the whim to come home.
0:51:12 > 0:51:16No other officer knows what a nerve you've got. And foresight, Henry.
0:51:16 > 0:51:20I made sure you came alone. Put away the gun, I won't resist you.
0:51:20 > 0:51:22Give me that money. With pleasure.
0:51:22 > 0:51:25You'll take care of it, won't you? We might need it later.
0:51:25 > 0:51:26You won't need it in jail.
0:51:26 > 0:51:29I've cooked that dinner you phoned about, Mr Templar.
0:51:29 > 0:51:32Good, I'm hungry. You won't be when I get through with you.
0:51:32 > 0:51:36Won't you let us have a bite of dinner? No, he's got no heart.
0:51:36 > 0:51:38I doubt very much if he's even got a stomach.
0:51:38 > 0:51:41Well, I'm not unreasonable. Then pitch in.
0:51:41 > 0:51:44I haven't much appetite for anything under the circumstances but...
0:51:44 > 0:51:47it is a long time since breakfast. Algernon!
0:51:47 > 0:51:49Coming, sir.
0:51:49 > 0:51:52Did you consult the Inspector's diet chart. Wait a minute!
0:51:52 > 0:51:55If that's what you're up to, you're going to the jug double quick!
0:51:55 > 0:51:58What would you like? The same as you! All right.
0:51:58 > 0:52:01Bring on the feast. Yes, sir, there's plenty of it.
0:52:05 > 0:52:07Have some more coffee, Henry.
0:52:07 > 0:52:09Yeah, don't mind if I do.
0:52:12 > 0:52:13Thanks.
0:52:13 > 0:52:15Ah, domesticity.
0:52:15 > 0:52:18I'd like to paint you at a spinning wheel perhaps.
0:52:18 > 0:52:23Or over a washtub? No, no, as you are, a symbol of American womanhood.
0:52:23 > 0:52:29American womanhood, sewing on a button. No, sewing up a bullet hole, if you don't mind.
0:52:35 > 0:52:37You will sew it up for me, won't you, Val?
0:52:39 > 0:52:43When did you get this? When you thought you shot Darnell.
0:52:43 > 0:52:46I hate to tell you this, Val, but you missed him by about five yards.
0:52:46 > 0:52:49I got him, through that pocket.
0:52:49 > 0:52:51That news was worth waiting for, Templar,
0:52:51 > 0:52:55why even Breck thought she did it and tried to take the rap for her.
0:52:55 > 0:52:59I thought he would. I thought I'd get some dope out of you if I waited long enough.
0:52:59 > 0:53:02You're coming with me right now. Boy, get my hat and coat.
0:53:02 > 0:53:09Was that lobster all right? Scrumptious, sir. That diet chart said shellfish's mighty bad for you.
0:53:09 > 0:53:12Yeah, I know, get me some soda quick, will you? Yes.
0:53:14 > 0:53:19Well, Valerie? You're telling me you shot Darnell hoping Allan Breck would take the blame.
0:53:19 > 0:53:23It was the only way to get you out of there. You're clever, all right.
0:53:23 > 0:53:27But Allan's honest. It's so easy to be romantic, but not so easy to be loyal.
0:53:27 > 0:53:29I believe you're pretty fond of Breck.
0:53:29 > 0:53:31In fact, I'd go so far as to say you love him.
0:53:31 > 0:53:34Perhaps you're right, because of comparison.
0:53:34 > 0:53:39What you pretended to do for me, you did for adventure. What he's done, he did for me.
0:53:39 > 0:53:41Oh, but I have my excuse.
0:53:41 > 0:53:44You're so lovely to see and touch and think of.
0:53:44 > 0:53:47As all women should be and so few are.
0:53:47 > 0:53:51Remember this, Valerie, no matter what you choose to think of me,
0:53:51 > 0:53:52I'm still going to help you.
0:53:52 > 0:53:56And Fernack is gonna help you, too.
0:53:56 > 0:53:59You're barking up the wrong tree this time, Templar.
0:53:59 > 0:54:01I'm delivering you straight to headquarters.
0:54:01 > 0:54:06Now, Henry, do you think I looked you up just for the privilege of being tossed into jail?
0:54:06 > 0:54:11I went all the way to New York to be sure you didn't miss your big opportunity.
0:54:11 > 0:54:12Now, listen carefully.
0:54:12 > 0:54:17In exactly three hours, I want you to come to the service entrance of Cullis's apartment.
0:54:17 > 0:54:20No, no, I'm taking you in right now.
0:54:22 > 0:54:25Right now. You don't look very well, Henry.
0:54:25 > 0:54:27I don't feel so good either.
0:54:27 > 0:54:29Perhaps you should sit down for a moment?
0:54:29 > 0:54:32Are you sure you had enough to eat?
0:54:32 > 0:54:35Ooh. You wouldn't like a little more ice cream...? No, no.
0:54:35 > 0:54:37Or perhaps some more lobster?
0:54:38 > 0:54:41Or how about a big, black cigar? No, no.
0:54:42 > 0:54:45There now, Henry, just relax.
0:54:47 > 0:54:49We'll take care of you.
0:55:08 > 0:55:09Mr Fernack?
0:55:09 > 0:55:12Mr Fernack? Huh?
0:55:12 > 0:55:15Mr Templar said, dead or alive, wake you up at 8.30 sharp.
0:55:15 > 0:55:17They've gone I suppose. Yes, they've gone.
0:55:17 > 0:55:20The money? Guess it's gone, too.
0:55:20 > 0:55:21Another note.

0:56:06 > 0:56:08Well, this is a pleasure.
0:56:08 > 0:56:11But you, of course, came here on business.
0:56:11 > 0:56:15You expect to buy some information from me that might be good for the name of Travers.
0:56:15 > 0:56:17That's right, Mr Cullis.
0:56:17 > 0:56:19But not that way.
0:56:19 > 0:56:23I have the money but The Saint advised me to throw it out of the window if you grew impatient.
0:56:27 > 0:56:29Oh, well, I think we can talk.
0:56:29 > 0:56:30Good.
0:56:30 > 0:56:33Do you mind if I turn that music off?
0:56:33 > 0:56:35No, not at all.
0:56:36 > 0:56:40Miss Travers, I may as well be frank about this whole matter.
0:56:40 > 0:56:44I planted some of the stolen money in your father's safe deposit box,
0:56:44 > 0:56:47merely by a trick of sleight of hand. Go on.
0:56:47 > 0:56:52I also made the incriminating telephone calls on your father's private phone,
0:56:52 > 0:56:55to Mr Waldman, the genius of our successful operations.
0:56:55 > 0:56:58Meaning Mr Eastman? HE LAUGHS: Certainly not.
0:56:58 > 0:57:01Eastman was a very excellent front for us, but stupid.
0:57:03 > 0:57:04Very stupid.
0:57:06 > 0:57:11That is why Mr Waldman disposed of him this morning. That's all.
0:57:11 > 0:57:14Except, I wouldn't want you to spread such things.
0:57:14 > 0:57:17Now here's something really important to you -
0:57:17 > 0:57:19I've held Breck in personal custody,
0:57:19 > 0:57:24ostensibly to see what I could get out of him regarding you and The Saint.
0:57:24 > 0:57:29Naturally, he wasn't very happy to find he'd taken the rap for an $80,000 romance.
0:57:31 > 0:57:34He told me if he ever went free, he'd hunt you both down.
0:57:34 > 0:57:37That won't be necessary now.
0:57:37 > 0:57:41I think your friend The Saint will probably enter by the rear door.
0:57:44 > 0:57:47You see we kept all the doors unlocked for him...
0:57:47 > 0:57:51'I don't think anybody would be unreasonable enough to blame me for his escape.
0:57:51 > 0:57:56'He did away with two people here and that would prove he was a very desperate case.'
0:57:56 > 0:57:58Let's go.
0:58:27 > 0:58:29Look out, Fernack!
0:58:29 > 0:58:30TWO SHOTS FIRED
0:58:36 > 0:58:38Give me that key!
0:58:39 > 0:58:40Give me that key!
0:58:50 > 0:58:53I'm saving you to sign a confession, Mr Cullis.
0:58:54 > 0:58:56Come on, over here.
0:58:56 > 0:58:58Oh, Commissioner, I, er...
0:58:58 > 0:59:03Before you go into details, you might know that we wired this room while you were out today.
0:59:03 > 0:59:06Any court would understand the absurdity of the story I told her.
0:59:06 > 0:59:09I knew that fable would bring The Saint to her side.
0:59:09 > 0:59:11I wanted to grab both of them for you.
0:59:11 > 0:59:15Well, The Saint was working for me a long time before you knew it.
0:59:15 > 0:59:18Everything he's done in this town was with full authority.
0:59:18 > 0:59:20Come on, let's have that money.
0:59:24 > 0:59:29Here's the loot, Commissioner. Your friend in the kitchen couldn't shoot very straight.
0:59:29 > 0:59:34I found these glasses out on the Eastman target range this morning.
0:59:34 > 0:59:36Those belong to Allan Breck.
0:59:36 > 0:59:39Yes, Miss Travers, even after I had him released last night,
0:59:39 > 0:59:43I found he wanted no freedom without you. You're speaking of Breck?
0:59:43 > 0:59:46Or Waldman, whichever you choose to call him.
0:59:46 > 0:59:50Here's the man who got him. Congratulations, Inspector.
0:59:50 > 0:59:52You see, Henry, I told you so, now you're a hero.
0:59:58 > 1:00:00Latest paper here! Paper!
1:00:00 > 1:00:01Paper!
1:00:01 > 1:00:06Val, tomorrow morning you'll be reading the story for which you waited so long -
1:00:06 > 1:00:08the clearing of your father's name.
1:00:08 > 1:00:10Now his daughter has to clear hers, too.
1:00:10 > 1:00:13I've got a lot to do, a lot to forgive,
1:00:13 > 1:00:16and a lot to remember.
1:00:16 > 1:00:20Mr Templar, sir, I was making so bold as to ask if you'd be wanting an assistant?
1:00:20 > 1:00:25I'm sorry, Zipper, but it's always been my motto that he travels fastest... Who travels alone.
1:00:26 > 1:00:28Goodbye, Saint.
1:00:32 > 1:00:34Goodbye, Val.
1:00:37 > 1:00:40I never seen such a cop.
1:00:59 > 1:01:02HE WHISTLES
