[00:02:24] Unknown:
It's up to you, Casey. I know. Let me think, Logan. Let me think.
[00:02:28] Unknown:
Well I've got to work this out. It isn't easy. Look. You're the wonder boy with a hair trigger brain. Let's have some action.
[00:02:36] Unknown:

Gin rummage. Jew louse.
[00:02:44] Unknown:
I had a hunch you were saving juice. Hey. Let's see your hand.

[00:03:04] Unknown:
I guess that's right, pal. It's nearly 05:00, though. I'm taking Ann Williams to the theater tonight for dinner before that. What show are you gonna see? I'm gonna see that new one opening at the Tivoli. Press agent gave me ducats. Don't you ever pay your way? How can I afford to when you win all my dough? I got you good, miss.
[00:03:19] Unknown:
Adams. Excuse me. That's your phone. Captain Logan. How is I, Joe? Who? Oh, hello. Yeah. I'll be here. What do you wanna talk to me about? Okay. Come on over. I'm about to receive a visit from a stinker. Oh,
[00:03:37] Unknown:
any stinker I know? Bill Havens. Well, the criminal lawyer. Lawyer, criminal describes him better. Stinker's best, though. That rat smells of fixed juries, intimidated witnesses, and every variety of dirty double cross known in the book.
[00:03:51] Unknown:
He was on the phone just now. Yeah. I said he had to see me. He'll be here in a few minutes. Do you ever meet Milt Haven's wife? Yeah.
[00:03:59] Unknown:
A swell woman. You bet she is super swell. I've often wondered if she knows what kind of a skunk she's married to. She must. Well, not necessarily, Logan. Havens is a smooth guy. He probably puts on a good front at home. Besides the woman who spends most of her time helping people and looking for the best in them as Doris Havens does, well, she might not be able to really see the kind of a guy her husband really is. No. She does most of that good Samaritan stuff of hers because she is wise to milk. It's to ease her conscience and to clean up the blood money he brings in. I see you don't know very much about Doris Havens, Logan. What do you mean? Well, for one thing, the dough she spends on that Third Street settlement house of hers is her own dough. She was worth over a million bucks when she married Milt Havens.
I didn't know that. Well, of course not. You're just a cop out of newspaper snooper like me. Why, that money was safely tied up in a trust fund, or Milt would have gotten it away from her long ago to spend on other women. Hey. It goes for the gals. Alright. Well, I'm gonna get out of here before he shows up. I always feel better when I don't see Milt Havens. It's a long path. It's alright. Hey. Wait a minute. You want me gin rummy dough? Oh, almost forgot.
[00:05:06] Unknown:
How much? Here's the score sheet. Read it and weep. Oh,
[00:05:11] Unknown:
really took me to the cleaners today, Logan. Look. I'm a little short. How about an IOU? Nuts. I want cash. What I gotta eat, fella? Look upon your watch or your overcoat. My pal. Why did I ever come in here in the first place? Oh, 2,560
[00:05:26] Unknown:
points. Which comes to exactly $2.56. Oh, alright.
[00:05:33] Unknown:
Here. Joe Band's got some money.
[00:05:37] Unknown:
Come in. Oh, thanks, captain. Hello, Havens. Well, this is a pleasant surprise, my old friend Casey. Hi, Milt.
[00:05:47] Unknown:
I'll see you later, Logan. Oh, you going? Yes. I got a date. Casey,
[00:05:51] Unknown:
as a newspaper man, you may be interested in my business with the captain. Oh, yeah? What is your business, Havens? Captain, I want you to look at a note that was delivered to my office this afternoon. Oh, first, I'll read it to you in case he it says, this is your death warrant, Havens. There's a slug in my gut with your name on it, and you're going to get it special delivery very soon from a guy you did dirt to. That's all. Let me see that note. Yeah. Sure. Here. Any idea who said it? No. Not the slightest. We attorneys who specialize in criminal defense practice make many enemies, captain. You You think this note's from some former client who's just gotten out of jail? Well, it's a possibility.
My thought in coming to see you, captain, was that you might find fingerprints on this note that I'll have you call While we're investigating, you want a police bodyguard, of course. No. Thanks. I have a permit to carry a gun, and I am better than a fair shot. And, frankly, I'm not worried. Okay. Oh, Casey, would you like to take a picture of me to run with the story of this death threat? It'll make good newspaper copy for you and good publicity for me. If the threatner really killed you, it'll be a good newspaper story, Havens. Not otherwise. I gotta run along, Logan. I give miss Williams my best, Casey. I hope you enjoy that new show at the Tivoli tonight. Yeah. Thanks, pal. So long. Oh, Casey. What? You're, going to the Tivoli tonight. That's right. Yeah. Well, so am I with missus Havens. How about joining us afterwards for supper and a few drinks, sir? No. Thanks.
[00:07:28] Unknown:
But you'll you'll be with missus Havens? Yes. My wife has always liked you, Casey. She'd enjoy having you with us. Your wife is aces with me. Well, thank you. It'd be a privilege to talk to her again. Oh, then it's a date? Alright. Yeah. We'll meet you in the lobby after the last acts, partly for business reasons. Business reasons? Well, we could be lucky and get a story. The guy who wrote that note might be waiting outside of the theater for you with his gun.

When we get to the door, let me go out first and look around. The man who wrote you that note may be waiting outside. Oh, I shouldn't have told you about that silly note, Doris. Now I'm in no danger.
[00:08:53] Unknown:
That's right. Isn't it, Casey? I don't know. Well, you'd agree if you knew Bull, my chauffeur. He's an ex heavyweight wrestler who also knows how to handle a gun. Oh, there he is with the car.
[00:09:07] Unknown:
Everything alright, Bull? All okay, mister Havens. Take my aunt Milton before we go out the door. Someone might be waiting. Someone Bull hasn't noticed. And if I'm very close to you Oh, alright.
[00:09:20] Unknown:
Now you get into the car first. Very well. A man must humor these women, Casey. Yeah. Well, I'm safely inside. Come on, the rest of you. Let me help you, miss Havens. No. Thank you, mister Casey.
[00:09:32] Unknown:
Annie. Oh, okay.
[00:09:35] Unknown:
Drive us on, Bull. Yes, sir. You, weren't lucky, Casey. No news story. My, threatening friend didn't come to the theater.
[00:09:54] Unknown:
I'm glad to be almost home, Milton. I've been so afraid every minute. Stop worrying, Doris. Please. Here we are, boss.
[00:10:01] Unknown:
Bull, look around before you open the car doors. I'll do that, missus Havens. You won't do anything of the kind. We can see for ourselves that the street is deserted. Now, Doris, I'm getting tired of this scary stuff.
[00:10:13] Unknown:
Come on. Let me go out with you, Milton. I'll I'll be close beside you. Alright, Doris, but you're making me feel like a fool. Come on, Annie. Mhmm. There are a lot of dark places here.
[00:10:23] Unknown:
I I wish Chasey. The guy with the gun. Havens, look out here. Don't shoot my husband too. Away from me, Doris.
[00:10:30] Unknown:
Oh, oh, missus Havens.
[00:10:32] Unknown:
I got him, Bolo. I shot him. I pumped him. Let him do, boss. He's finished. He got in two shots before you fellas got your guns out. The slugs caught your wife, Havens.
[00:10:40] Unknown:
Doris,
[00:10:41] Unknown:

The boss and I got her. Wait. His lips are moving. He's trying to talk. Yeah. Let me out of my mouth. Finish him. Drop that gun, Havens. Drop it. Go. They killed my wife. I have the right to you. Hold him, Bull. Hold him. No, Bull. We can't let you do something foolish, boys. The man's murmuring something. Case about a man's head. Maybe better. Okay. What is it, guy? What is it? Now let me go. Let me go, Bull. I'm going to finish him. Oh. He's finished now, Havens. The The guy who shot your wife is dead.
Dead. Did did he say anything, Casey? No. But his lips seemed to form two words. Two words. Double cross.
[00:11:32] Unknown:
I I recognize this rat. I defended him several years ago and lost him. He went to prison.
[00:11:39] Unknown:
He, he probably thought I'd crossed him up. Maybe he was trying to talk about the past. I
[00:11:45] Unknown:
wonder. Why
[00:11:47] Unknown:

[00:13:24] Unknown:
Okay, Grace. I'll I'll look for it. Don't worry. I won't. Goodbye. These women. Now, Casey, you and miss Williams was about to tell me who the guy was who shot poor missus Havens. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. It was a rod hot apple pretty. His name was Bocker. He just finished a stretch for armed robbery, and Havens had been his lawyer when he was convicted. So he tried to kill Havens for letting him be convicted.
[00:13:53] Unknown:
Apparently. Well, it's open and shut, Casey. His fingerprints were on that threatening note that Havens received. Well, that makes all the parts fit perfectly. Not quite. Missus Havens was killed instead of her husband. Well, that was accidental. You say she jumped in front of him. No. No. Miss Williams says that. Well well, she did jump in front of Havens. Well I saw her do it. So did the chauffeur. And her husband was closest to her since she jumped in. Believing anything that Havens guy says.
[00:14:19] Unknown:
Everything happened so fast, Annie. You can't be sure of what you saw. Neither can bull the chauffeur. And I'm not sure of what I saw. Oh. I couldn't swear of what I think I saw. Right. I do think that Havens pushed his wife away when she tried to step in front of him. And I think I saw the gunman aimed directly at her and not at her husband. I think Havens was behind the murder of his wife. That's what I think. Casey, you despise that man so much you can't be reasonable. Well, he tried to put another bullet in the killer, didn't he? He learned he was still alive and trying to talk. Well, he was half mad because of his wife's death. Oh, no. No. No, ma'am. I was afraid that guy would tell us that he'd been hired to kill Doris Havens.
So Havens double crossed him, shot him. So he'd never be able to give away the deal. Well, that's only your stubborn theory. Well, there's a good basis for it. Oh. The way Haven set the stage in Logan's office with that threatening note, the way he got you and me for witnesses when he learned that we were going to the Tivoli. I'd have to swear that that ex con, Barker, shot missus Havens and that Havens shot him in self defense. But Casey, since that Barker's fingerprints were found on that threatening note Well, that only builds my theory, Edelberg. Oh. Sure. Barker was an experienced crook. He wouldn't have left incriminating prints on that note if he sent such a note.
But if he was working for Havens, Havens could easily have gotten his prints on a blank sheet of paper and then have printed the note himself.
[00:15:43] Unknown:
That is a Well, that's all it is. How about motive, Casey? Havens had nothing to gain by his wife's death. Her money is in a trust fund that he won't inherit.
[00:15:54] Unknown:
And if he just lost his taste for her, well, divorce was simpler than murder and a lot less dangerous. He wouldn't have dared to try divorcing her. Why wouldn't he have dared? Some of the toughest crooks in this town have a soft spot for Doris Havens because she'd helped so many of them, helped them and their families. If it'd gotten around that Havens was giving her the double cross, he'd have had orders to lay off or else Well, he still haven't a motive. I know. I know. I can't figure why he'd wanna get rid of her. I just I just feel that he did. That's all I oh, that's
[00:16:28] Unknown:
you know who Claudia Stafford is? Who doesn't?
[00:16:32] Unknown:
Claudia Stafford is the heiress who has over 10,000,000 in her own name, Poor girl. What about her? I was thinking,
[00:16:40] Unknown:
her chauffeur comes in here occasional. And when he gets tidy, he gets confidential with us bartenders. Well, the last time I'd have him, he told me that Claudia Stafford and Milt Haven was carrying a torch for one another. What? Yeah. He said there was meat and regular, Casey.
[00:16:57] Unknown:
Why, Annie? Mhmm. With Haven's free to become that dame's husband. Well, she has full control of hers. Well, there's his motive.
[00:17:03] Unknown:
The Stafford dove. The same thought occurred to me while you was talking, Katie. So what? There's still no evidence that Haven was behind his wife's murder. You got to get evidence, Anne.
[00:17:12] Unknown:
If he hired Barker for the job Captain Logan can check up on Barker. He may have said or done something. The cops will have a tough time on that kind of checkup, and they may get nowhere. I have a clue here. Barker was a crook and associated with crooks. They're the only people he'd spill anything to, and they won't help the cops. No. Wait a minute, though. A few of them might help me.
[00:17:36] Unknown:
Fats Everett likes you, Casey, and you've done him some favors. Yes. I was thinking of Fats Everett, Anne. He's the gang boss of the West Side where missus Havens had her settlement house. Yeah.
[00:17:47] Unknown:
I'm going over and have a talk with Fats Everett. You've got quite an interesting theory about missus Havens killing Casey. Yeah. I thought you'd find it worth listening to, Fats. You knew missus Havens, and you know her husband.
[00:18:08] Unknown:
She was a swell woman. Yes. You spoken to the cops about your suspicions?
[00:18:14] Unknown:
To keep the record straight, Fats, I've told captain Logan what I've told you. And? He said there was only one chance in a million of proving up on my idea.
[00:18:26] Unknown:
You didn't tell Logan or any other cop that you were gonna talk to me? No. Okay. Now forget you've talked to me. I'll speak to some of the guys about this Barker Radhat. You'll hear from me later. Thanks, Fats. Take nothing over, Casey.
[00:18:56] Unknown:
Photography department. Casey speaking. This is Herbert. Fats. It's been two weeks since I talked to you. You found out Some things take time, Chum.
[00:19:06] Unknown:
Down to my joint, once you meet a guy. Hello? We're in the next room, Casey. I want you to meet you in there.
[00:19:22] Unknown:
You got it locked up, Fetch?
[00:19:28] Unknown:
Uh-huh. That's him.
[00:19:30] Unknown:
Get up, Toby. You're gonna let me out of here now, mister Everett. You're gonna Close your trap if you told Toby. Yeah. I will, mister Everett. Don't hit me again. Now tell this guy what you told me. Okay, mister Everett. Okay. It's about Barker. We was in Stuttgart, and we got sprung at the same time. And he was never saw at that market. Wait a minute. Barker told you that? Yeah. I was his pal. And he told me our Havens was gonna pay him a grant to knock off his wife. And Barker got a hundred bucks of it in advance. Which was all he got, except some slugs from Havens Gap. And Barker bought hooch with a hundred and him and me and him and me I mean, we got we we got pry eyed together.
And and that's when he told me about Havens and the job that he'd been hired to do. He wouldn't even tell a pal like me that unless we was full of red eye like that. If there he was a %, Casey. How will you let me out of here, mister Epperton? Will you give me a bottle of red eye? Sit down.
[00:20:25] Unknown:
Shut up. Guy's an alcoholic fence. He's everything that's crummy.
[00:20:30] Unknown:
He'd been in a bug house. But he was Barker's pal. I've checked. Yeah. His testimony would be
[00:20:37] Unknown:
of be worth a plugged nickel in court. An ex con, he's a rummy and a nut. Since Barker was drunk when he told him about Havens, well, DA wouldn't even try for an indictment on the strength of his story. It's the best I could do for you, Casey.
[00:20:52] Unknown:
Yeah. And I believe his story.
[00:20:55] Unknown:
I've checked. Yeah. There's still no evidence against Havens. He's gonna get away with what he what he's done. He killed a swell woman. Yeah. She was tough. She's dead, and he'll go on living, living better than he ever has before on Claudia Stafford's dole. Guess that old gal, Justice, is blind.
[00:21:15] Unknown:
I try to think she is Casey for my own sake, but all guys like me are just a little bit afraid of her. Blind or not, she seems to get around and to catch up with the fastest runners.
[00:21:31] Unknown:
We don't get away. Oh, Havens is getting away.
[00:21:35] Unknown:
Yeah. Yeah. I guess you're right.
[00:21:39] Unknown:
You wanna take this jerk to the cops, or should I turn them loose? Well, won't do any good, but I'll take it to the cops. Get them out of here then. Alright. Come on. You I don't take money to the cops. Shut up.
[00:21:49] Unknown:
So long, Casey. Have you seen anyone in these days?
[00:22:03] Unknown:
So the cops and the DA wouldn't do nothing about that ex con story. Casey? Nothing they could do, Ethelbert.
[00:22:10] Unknown:
Guy's worthless as a witness. It looks like Haven's committed the perfect crime, or he can't be punished. Oh, I can't believe that. Well, I'm watching it happen, Anne. Hello, Casey. Well
[00:22:20] Unknown:
miss Williams. France Everett. Well, how are you, Ethelbert? Fine. I don't see you in here very often, mister Everett. Yeah. Well, this isn't my part of town. This happened to be up here on business when I remembered this Blue Note Cafe was your hangout, Casey, so I thought I'd drop in. Something on your mind, Fats? Oh, not even a good time. There's a new night spot just opened in my district and got a part interest in it. Thought you and miss Williams might like to pay it a visit tonight as my guest. Oh, thanks, fella. We just put the paper to bed, though, and I'm dead tired. So so am I. Another time, mister Everett. A guy both of you know has reserved a table at my new club tonight. You two might pick up a story
[00:23:02] Unknown:
with pictures. Who's the guy?
[00:23:05] Unknown:
I'd rather save him for a surprise. Join me? You,
[00:23:10] Unknown:
tipping us to something fast? Maybe. Uh-huh. That's enough, Casey. Let's go. My car's outside.

[00:23:47] Unknown:
Half past twelve. Twelve twenty nine to be exact.
[00:23:51] Unknown:
Mhmm. That checks with my watch, so we both must be right. Just the shank of the evening. Let's go. Got your camera, Casey? Yeah. Sure. I got it. I think you two will get a kick out of my new club
[00:24:13] Unknown:
by drawing some of the most important people in town, Casey. Yeah. Well, look. Suppose you break down now and tell us who the guy is you spoke of. Guy? Yeah. The one we know who's reserved the table might be good for a story. Oh.

Oh. It's the mayor. The mayor. Yeah. Oh. We're joining his party.
[00:24:29] Unknown:
You know his honor, miss Williams. He's always good for a story. Come on. It won't hurt your new club if we run something about him being there.

I'm getting a picture of this fat fat. What's he got? I'm sorry. I bumped your arm, Casey. I would've gotten a picture of that butter car fat if you hadn't looked at the car. Gone now. It's around the corner. Never mind the car. Let's have a look at Havens.
[00:24:59] Unknown:

execution casing? I don't know, Everbert. I don't know. It's possible that he'd fix things so Havens would be called out of that joint on some pretext to have past twelve exactly. Fats gorillas were in that car waiting for them. Well, we can't prove that, Casey. No, Annie. There's no evidence. We can't prove it. I've told the cops everything I know, but Fats covered every angle just like Havens did. He didn't even lie to us about the mayor. His honor was in that club. Bets Everett thought missus Havens was a fine woman. Yeah. But even so, Bets was entirely wrong if he took the law into his own hands.
[00:27:26] Unknown:
I guess that old gal, Justice, will get him too in the end. That's right. She never fails.
[00:27:33] Unknown:
That bandage on her eyes is just a gag. You,
[00:27:36] Unknown:
didn't think that a few days ago.
[00:27:39] Unknown:
Mhmm. Well, I've had good reason to change my mind. You never can tell about women. What? Women.
[00:27:46] Unknown:
Justice is supposed to be, ain't she, a woman? Oh. It's getting harder to tell about them all the time, especially with this here new look. It ain't just us, Casey. Why, if them skirts get much longer, us men might as well be blind.
[00:28:03] Unknown:
Annie, I think we're approaching a change of subject. I, can see that.
[00:28:09] Unknown:
Enjoy yourselves, gentlemen. Good night.

Our adventure for tonight, blind justice. Late afternoon, police headquarters, the private office of Captain Logan homicide bureau. On opposite sides of a huge battered desk sit Logan and Casey. Their eyes are hard, their jaws set intense. Before them is a problem.
[00:02:24] Unknown:
It's up to you, Casey. I know. Let me think, Logan. Let me think.
[00:02:28] Unknown:
Well I've got to work this out. It isn't easy. Look. You're the wonder boy with a hair trigger brain. Let's have some action.
[00:02:36] Unknown:
Okay. I'm taking that king you discarded and throwing down this juice. That bit. Yippee.
[00:02:41] Unknown:
Gin rummage. Jew louse.
[00:02:44] Unknown:
I had a hunch you were saving juice. Hey. Let's see your hand.
[00:02:48] Unknown:
Ain't that too bad? Kings, jacks, and 10 spots. I may get 80 points in nuts deal. 80 plus 20 for gin makes me another game. Alright. Figure up what I owe you, Canfield, and we'll call it a day. Oh, quitting. I can't take it when you move. I
[00:03:04] Unknown:
I guess that's right, pal. It's nearly 05:00, though. I'm taking Ann Williams to the theater tonight for dinner before that. What show are you gonna see? I'm gonna see that new one opening at the Tivoli. Press agent gave me ducats. Don't you ever pay your way? How can I afford to when you win all my dough? I got you good, miss.
[00:03:19] Unknown:
Adams. Excuse me. That's your phone. Captain Logan. How is I, Joe? Who? Oh, hello. Yeah. I'll be here. What do you wanna talk to me about? Okay. Come on over. I'm about to receive a visit from a stinker. Oh,
[00:03:37] Unknown:
any stinker I know? Bill Havens. Well, the criminal lawyer. Lawyer, criminal describes him better. Stinker's best, though. That rat smells of fixed juries, intimidated witnesses, and every variety of dirty double cross known in the book.
[00:03:51] Unknown:
He was on the phone just now. Yeah. I said he had to see me. He'll be here in a few minutes. Do you ever meet Milt Haven's wife? Yeah.
[00:03:59] Unknown:
A swell woman. You bet she is super swell. I've often wondered if she knows what kind of a skunk she's married to. She must. Well, not necessarily, Logan. Havens is a smooth guy. He probably puts on a good front at home. Besides the woman who spends most of her time helping people and looking for the best in them as Doris Havens does, well, she might not be able to really see the kind of a guy her husband really is. No. She does most of that good Samaritan stuff of hers because she is wise to milk. It's to ease her conscience and to clean up the blood money he brings in. I see you don't know very much about Doris Havens, Logan. What do you mean? Well, for one thing, the dough she spends on that Third Street settlement house of hers is her own dough. She was worth over a million bucks when she married Milt Havens.
I didn't know that. Well, of course not. You're just a cop out of newspaper snooper like me. Why, that money was safely tied up in a trust fund, or Milt would have gotten it away from her long ago to spend on other women. Hey. It goes for the gals. Alright. Well, I'm gonna get out of here before he shows up. I always feel better when I don't see Milt Havens. It's a long path. It's alright. Hey. Wait a minute. You want me gin rummy dough? Oh, almost forgot.
[00:05:06] Unknown:
How much? Here's the score sheet. Read it and weep. Oh,
[00:05:11] Unknown:
really took me to the cleaners today, Logan. Look. I'm a little short. How about an IOU? Nuts. I want cash. What I gotta eat, fella? Look upon your watch or your overcoat. My pal. Why did I ever come in here in the first place? Oh, 2,560
[00:05:26] Unknown:
points. Which comes to exactly $2.56. Oh, alright.
[00:05:33] Unknown:
Here. Joe Band's got some money.
[00:05:37] Unknown:
Come in. Oh, thanks, captain. Hello, Havens. Well, this is a pleasant surprise, my old friend Casey. Hi, Milt.
[00:05:47] Unknown:
I'll see you later, Logan. Oh, you going? Yes. I got a date. Casey,
[00:05:51] Unknown:
as a newspaper man, you may be interested in my business with the captain. Oh, yeah? What is your business, Havens? Captain, I want you to look at a note that was delivered to my office this afternoon. Oh, first, I'll read it to you in case he it says, this is your death warrant, Havens. There's a slug in my gut with your name on it, and you're going to get it special delivery very soon from a guy you did dirt to. That's all. Let me see that note. Yeah. Sure. Here. Any idea who said it? No. Not the slightest. We attorneys who specialize in criminal defense practice make many enemies, captain. You You think this note's from some former client who's just gotten out of jail? Well, it's a possibility.
My thought in coming to see you, captain, was that you might find fingerprints on this note that I'll have you call While we're investigating, you want a police bodyguard, of course. No. Thanks. I have a permit to carry a gun, and I am better than a fair shot. And, frankly, I'm not worried. Okay. Oh, Casey, would you like to take a picture of me to run with the story of this death threat? It'll make good newspaper copy for you and good publicity for me. If the threatner really killed you, it'll be a good newspaper story, Havens. Not otherwise. I gotta run along, Logan. I give miss Williams my best, Casey. I hope you enjoy that new show at the Tivoli tonight. Yeah. Thanks, pal. So long. Oh, Casey. What? You're, going to the Tivoli tonight. That's right. Yeah. Well, so am I with missus Havens. How about joining us afterwards for supper and a few drinks, sir? No. Thanks.
[00:07:28] Unknown:
But you'll you'll be with missus Havens? Yes. My wife has always liked you, Casey. She'd enjoy having you with us. Your wife is aces with me. Well, thank you. It'd be a privilege to talk to her again. Oh, then it's a date? Alright. Yeah. We'll meet you in the lobby after the last acts, partly for business reasons. Business reasons? Well, we could be lucky and get a story. The guy who wrote that note might be waiting outside of the theater for you with his gun.
[00:08:08] Unknown:
There. There's Milt Havens and his wife, Annie. Oh, that, tall gray haired woman is miss Havens. Right. Hello, miss Williams. Miss Casey, we've been waiting for you. Hello, mister Havens. Oh, mister Casey, it's so good to see you again. Well, it's good to see you, missus Havens. Doris, you haven't met Casey's friend. This very pretty young lady is miss Williams,
[00:08:26] Unknown:
my wife, miss Williams. This is a pleasure, my dear. It's one for me, missus Havens. I know about the wonderful work you've done through your settlement house and I know it. The theater. My
[00:08:35] Unknown:
chauffeur will have the car waiting. We're taking you and miss Williams to our home for a bite, mister Casey. Oh, I can smile. Thank you. Milton, dear. Oh, yes, Doris. When we get to the door, let me go out first and look around. The man who wrote you that note may be waiting outside. Oh, I shouldn't have told you about that silly note, Doris. Now I'm in no danger.
[00:08:53] Unknown:
That's right. Isn't it, Casey? I don't know. Well, you'd agree if you knew Bull, my chauffeur. He's an ex heavyweight wrestler who also knows how to handle a gun. Oh, there he is with the car.
[00:09:07] Unknown:
Everything alright, Bull? All okay, mister Havens. Take my aunt Milton before we go out the door. Someone might be waiting. Someone Bull hasn't noticed. And if I'm very close to you Oh, alright.
[00:09:20] Unknown:
Now you get into the car first. Very well. A man must humor these women, Casey. Yeah. Well, I'm safely inside. Come on, the rest of you. Let me help you, miss Havens. No. Thank you, mister Casey.
[00:09:32] Unknown:
Annie. Oh, okay.
[00:09:35] Unknown:
Drive us on, Bull. Yes, sir. You, weren't lucky, Casey. No news story. My, threatening friend didn't come to the theater.
[00:09:54] Unknown:
I'm glad to be almost home, Milton. I've been so afraid every minute. Stop worrying, Doris. Please. Here we are, boss.
[00:10:01] Unknown:
Bull, look around before you open the car doors. I'll do that, missus Havens. You won't do anything of the kind. We can see for ourselves that the street is deserted. Now, Doris, I'm getting tired of this scary stuff.
[00:10:13] Unknown:
Come on. Let me go out with you, Milton. I'll I'll be close beside you. Alright, Doris, but you're making me feel like a fool. Come on, Annie. Mhmm. There are a lot of dark places here.
[00:10:23] Unknown:
I I wish Chasey. The guy with the gun. Havens, look out here. Don't shoot my husband too. Away from me, Doris.
[00:10:30] Unknown:
Oh, oh, missus Havens.
[00:10:32] Unknown:
I got him, Bolo. I shot him. I pumped him. Let him do, boss. He's finished. He got in two shots before you fellas got your guns out. The slugs caught your wife, Havens.
[00:10:40] Unknown:
Doris,
[00:10:41] Unknown:
shot. Missus Havens. I'm afraid. I'm afraid she's dead. Oh, she stepped in front of me. That's how it looked. That's how I look at the guy who killed her. Okay. She's done for, mister Casey. The boss and I got her. Wait. His lips are moving. He's trying to talk. Yeah. Let me out of my mouth. Finish him. Drop that gun, Havens. Drop it. Go. They killed my wife. I have the right to you. Hold him, Bull. Hold him. No, Bull. We can't let you do something foolish, boys. The man's murmuring something. Case about a man's head. Maybe better. Okay. What is it, guy? What is it? Now let me go. Let me go, Bull. I'm going to finish him. Oh. He's finished now, Havens. The The guy who shot your wife is dead.
Dead. Did did he say anything, Casey? No. But his lips seemed to form two words. Two words. Double cross.
[00:11:32] Unknown:
I I recognize this rat. I defended him several years ago and lost him. He went to prison.
[00:11:39] Unknown:
He, he probably thought I'd crossed him up. Maybe he was trying to talk about the past. I
[00:11:45] Unknown:
wonder. Why
[00:11:47] Unknown:
what do you mean? I got a hunch havens. A nasty hunch.
[00:12:01] Unknown:
Friends, instead of delivering a regular commercial at this time, allow me to read you this telegram that I just received. Lancaster, Ohio.

William v Fisher president, unquote. Mark up another first, another triumph. Ivory Fire King oven glass, a product of anchor hocking. The most famous name, King Glass.
[00:13:24] Unknown:
Okay, Grace. I'll I'll look for it. Don't worry. I won't. Goodbye. These women. Now, Casey, you and miss Williams was about to tell me who the guy was who shot poor missus Havens. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. It was a rod hot apple pretty. His name was Bocker. He just finished a stretch for armed robbery, and Havens had been his lawyer when he was convicted. So he tried to kill Havens for letting him be convicted.
[00:13:53] Unknown:
Apparently. Well, it's open and shut, Casey. His fingerprints were on that threatening note that Havens received. Well, that makes all the parts fit perfectly. Not quite. Missus Havens was killed instead of her husband. Well, that was accidental. You say she jumped in front of him. No. No. Miss Williams says that. Well well, she did jump in front of Havens. Well I saw her do it. So did the chauffeur. And her husband was closest to her since she jumped in. Believing anything that Havens guy says.
[00:14:19] Unknown:
Everything happened so fast, Annie. You can't be sure of what you saw. Neither can bull the chauffeur. And I'm not sure of what I saw. Oh. I couldn't swear of what I think I saw. Right. I do think that Havens pushed his wife away when she tried to step in front of him. And I think I saw the gunman aimed directly at her and not at her husband. I think Havens was behind the murder of his wife. That's what I think. Casey, you despise that man so much you can't be reasonable. Well, he tried to put another bullet in the killer, didn't he? He learned he was still alive and trying to talk. Well, he was half mad because of his wife's death. Oh, no. No. No, ma'am. I was afraid that guy would tell us that he'd been hired to kill Doris Havens.
So Havens double crossed him, shot him. So he'd never be able to give away the deal. Well, that's only your stubborn theory. Well, there's a good basis for it. Oh. The way Haven set the stage in Logan's office with that threatening note, the way he got you and me for witnesses when he learned that we were going to the Tivoli. I'd have to swear that that ex con, Barker, shot missus Havens and that Havens shot him in self defense. But Casey, since that Barker's fingerprints were found on that threatening note Well, that only builds my theory, Edelberg. Oh. Sure. Barker was an experienced crook. He wouldn't have left incriminating prints on that note if he sent such a note.
But if he was working for Havens, Havens could easily have gotten his prints on a blank sheet of paper and then have printed the note himself.
[00:15:43] Unknown:
That is a Well, that's all it is. How about motive, Casey? Havens had nothing to gain by his wife's death. Her money is in a trust fund that he won't inherit.
[00:15:54] Unknown:
And if he just lost his taste for her, well, divorce was simpler than murder and a lot less dangerous. He wouldn't have dared to try divorcing her. Why wouldn't he have dared? Some of the toughest crooks in this town have a soft spot for Doris Havens because she'd helped so many of them, helped them and their families. If it'd gotten around that Havens was giving her the double cross, he'd have had orders to lay off or else Well, he still haven't a motive. I know. I know. I can't figure why he'd wanna get rid of her. I just I just feel that he did. That's all I oh, that's
[00:16:28] Unknown:
you know who Claudia Stafford is? Who doesn't?
[00:16:32] Unknown:
Claudia Stafford is the heiress who has over 10,000,000 in her own name, Poor girl. What about her? I was thinking,
[00:16:40] Unknown:
her chauffeur comes in here occasional. And when he gets tidy, he gets confidential with us bartenders. Well, the last time I'd have him, he told me that Claudia Stafford and Milt Haven was carrying a torch for one another. What? Yeah. He said there was meat and regular, Casey.
[00:16:57] Unknown:
Why, Annie? Mhmm. With Haven's free to become that dame's husband. Well, she has full control of hers. Well, there's his motive.
[00:17:03] Unknown:
The Stafford dove. The same thought occurred to me while you was talking, Katie. So what? There's still no evidence that Haven was behind his wife's murder. You got to get evidence, Anne.
[00:17:12] Unknown:
If he hired Barker for the job Captain Logan can check up on Barker. He may have said or done something. The cops will have a tough time on that kind of checkup, and they may get nowhere. I have a clue here. Barker was a crook and associated with crooks. They're the only people he'd spill anything to, and they won't help the cops. No. Wait a minute, though. A few of them might help me.
[00:17:36] Unknown:
Fats Everett likes you, Casey, and you've done him some favors. Yes. I was thinking of Fats Everett, Anne. He's the gang boss of the West Side where missus Havens had her settlement house. Yeah.
[00:17:47] Unknown:
I'm going over and have a talk with Fats Everett. You've got quite an interesting theory about missus Havens killing Casey. Yeah. I thought you'd find it worth listening to, Fats. You knew missus Havens, and you know her husband.
[00:18:08] Unknown:
She was a swell woman. Yes. You spoken to the cops about your suspicions?
[00:18:14] Unknown:
To keep the record straight, Fats, I've told captain Logan what I've told you. And? He said there was only one chance in a million of proving up on my idea.
[00:18:26] Unknown:
You didn't tell Logan or any other cop that you were gonna talk to me? No. Okay. Now forget you've talked to me. I'll speak to some of the guys about this Barker Radhat. You'll hear from me later. Thanks, Fats. Take nothing over, Casey.
[00:18:56] Unknown:
Photography department. Casey speaking. This is Herbert. Fats. It's been two weeks since I talked to you. You found out Some things take time, Chum.
[00:19:06] Unknown:
Down to my joint, once you meet a guy. Hello? We're in the next room, Casey. I want you to meet you in there.
[00:19:22] Unknown:
You got it locked up, Fetch?
[00:19:28] Unknown:
Uh-huh. That's him.
[00:19:30] Unknown:
Get up, Toby. You're gonna let me out of here now, mister Everett. You're gonna Close your trap if you told Toby. Yeah. I will, mister Everett. Don't hit me again. Now tell this guy what you told me. Okay, mister Everett. Okay. It's about Barker. We was in Stuttgart, and we got sprung at the same time. And he was never saw at that market. Wait a minute. Barker told you that? Yeah. I was his pal. And he told me our Havens was gonna pay him a grant to knock off his wife. And Barker got a hundred bucks of it in advance. Which was all he got, except some slugs from Havens Gap. And Barker bought hooch with a hundred and him and me and him and me I mean, we got we we got pry eyed together.
And and that's when he told me about Havens and the job that he'd been hired to do. He wouldn't even tell a pal like me that unless we was full of red eye like that. If there he was a %, Casey. How will you let me out of here, mister Epperton? Will you give me a bottle of red eye? Sit down.
[00:20:25] Unknown:
Shut up. Guy's an alcoholic fence. He's everything that's crummy.
[00:20:30] Unknown:
He'd been in a bug house. But he was Barker's pal. I've checked. Yeah. His testimony would be
[00:20:37] Unknown:
of be worth a plugged nickel in court. An ex con, he's a rummy and a nut. Since Barker was drunk when he told him about Havens, well, DA wouldn't even try for an indictment on the strength of his story. It's the best I could do for you, Casey.
[00:20:52] Unknown:
Yeah. And I believe his story.
[00:20:55] Unknown:
I've checked. Yeah. There's still no evidence against Havens. He's gonna get away with what he what he's done. He killed a swell woman. Yeah. She was tough. She's dead, and he'll go on living, living better than he ever has before on Claudia Stafford's dole. Guess that old gal, Justice, is blind.
[00:21:15] Unknown:
I try to think she is Casey for my own sake, but all guys like me are just a little bit afraid of her. Blind or not, she seems to get around and to catch up with the fastest runners.
[00:21:31] Unknown:
We don't get away. Oh, Havens is getting away.
[00:21:35] Unknown:
Yeah. Yeah. I guess you're right.
[00:21:39] Unknown:
You wanna take this jerk to the cops, or should I turn them loose? Well, won't do any good, but I'll take it to the cops. Get them out of here then. Alright. Come on. You I don't take money to the cops. Shut up.
[00:21:49] Unknown:
So long, Casey. Have you seen anyone in these days?
[00:22:03] Unknown:
So the cops and the DA wouldn't do nothing about that ex con story. Casey? Nothing they could do, Ethelbert.
[00:22:10] Unknown:
Guy's worthless as a witness. It looks like Haven's committed the perfect crime, or he can't be punished. Oh, I can't believe that. Well, I'm watching it happen, Anne. Hello, Casey. Well
[00:22:20] Unknown:
miss Williams. France Everett. Well, how are you, Ethelbert? Fine. I don't see you in here very often, mister Everett. Yeah. Well, this isn't my part of town. This happened to be up here on business when I remembered this Blue Note Cafe was your hangout, Casey, so I thought I'd drop in. Something on your mind, Fats? Oh, not even a good time. There's a new night spot just opened in my district and got a part interest in it. Thought you and miss Williams might like to pay it a visit tonight as my guest. Oh, thanks, fella. We just put the paper to bed, though, and I'm dead tired. So so am I. Another time, mister Everett. A guy both of you know has reserved a table at my new club tonight. You two might pick up a story
[00:23:02] Unknown:
with pictures. Who's the guy?
[00:23:05] Unknown:
I'd rather save him for a surprise. Join me? You,
[00:23:10] Unknown:
tipping us to something fast? Maybe. Uh-huh. That's enough, Casey. Let's go. My car's outside.
[00:23:15] Unknown:
You'll ride with me.
[00:23:25] Unknown:
There's my new nightclub, miss Williams. We'll park here. Now wait a minute. Your joint's almost directly across the street from the Third Street Settlement House, Fat. You're missus Haven's place. Yeah.
[00:23:35] Unknown:
She did a lot of good in this neighborhood. Now come on. Let's get out of this place now. Wait a second now. I'll I'll add a fresh cigar. Oh, sure. What time I got, Casey?
[00:23:47] Unknown:
Half past twelve. Twelve twenty nine to be exact.
[00:23:51] Unknown:
Mhmm. That checks with my watch, so we both must be right. Just the shank of the evening. Let's go. Got your camera, Casey? Yeah. Sure. I got it. I think you two will get a kick out of my new club
[00:24:13] Unknown:
by drawing some of the most important people in town, Casey. Yeah. Well, look. Suppose you break down now and tell us who the guy is you spoke of. Guy? Yeah. The one we know who's reserved the table might be good for a story. Oh.
[00:24:25] Unknown:
Oh. It's the mayor. The mayor. Yeah. Oh. We're joining his party.
[00:24:29] Unknown:
You know his honor, miss Williams. He's always good for a story. Come on. It won't hurt your new club if we run something about him being there.
[00:24:36] Unknown:
That's right.

We can use some free publicity. Pam? Milt's Havens just came out of that club. Hey. The car crosses the street. You're burning the Havens. Oh, it's getting away. I'm getting a picture of this fat fat. What's he got? I'm sorry. I bumped your arm, Casey. I would've gotten a picture of that butter car fat if you hadn't looked at the car. Gone now. It's around the corner. Never mind the car. Let's have a look at Havens.
[00:24:59] Unknown:
Hi. It's dead, Casey. Bullets almost cut him in two.
[00:25:04] Unknown:
Here's a picture you really wanted, Casey. The dead body of a rat. I'll take offense.
[00:25:13] Unknown:
You brought me down here to take pictures of the mayor.

Do you think Fats Everett arranged Verhaven's
[00:26:50] Unknown:
execution casing? I don't know, Everbert. I don't know. It's possible that he'd fix things so Havens would be called out of that joint on some pretext to have past twelve exactly. Fats gorillas were in that car waiting for them. Well, we can't prove that, Casey. No, Annie. There's no evidence. We can't prove it. I've told the cops everything I know, but Fats covered every angle just like Havens did. He didn't even lie to us about the mayor. His honor was in that club. Bets Everett thought missus Havens was a fine woman. Yeah. But even so, Bets was entirely wrong if he took the law into his own hands.

I guess that old gal, Justice, will get him too in the end. That's right. She never fails.
[00:27:33] Unknown:
That bandage on her eyes is just a gag. You,
[00:27:36] Unknown:
didn't think that a few days ago.
[00:27:39] Unknown:
Mhmm. Well, I've had good reason to change my mind. You never can tell about women. What? Women.
[00:27:46] Unknown:
Justice is supposed to be, ain't she, a woman? Oh. It's getting harder to tell about them all the time, especially with this here new look. It ain't just us, Casey. Why, if them skirts get much longer, us men might as well be blind.
[00:28:03] Unknown:
Annie, I think we're approaching a change of subject. I, can see that.
[00:28:09] Unknown:
Enjoy yourselves, gentlemen. Good night.
