Nicky! Nicky!
What are you doing?
Just practicing, dear.
Do you have a little
slice of throat?
You'd better hurry.
We're getting into
San Francisco in 5 minutes.
Asta! My best
Sunday-go-to-meeting hat!
Dear, dear.
Darling, don't you
want to pack this?
How they can expect a woman
to still have
any mystery left for a man
after living in a place like
this for 3 days, I don't know.
Darling, you don't need mystery.
You've got
something much better,
something more alluring.
What?
Me.
You!
Ha ha!
It's all right.
We're married.
Darling, you've got to pack.
That's right. Right,
I must pack, right.
Are you packing, dear?
Mm-hmm.
Yes, darling,
I'm just putting away
this liquor.
Ooh!
If you break that,
they could sue you.
Oh, baby, you know,
I'm going to miss
this little room of ours.
It's left some lasting
impressions on me.
Dear, will you pack this?
Yes.
Delighted, delighted.
You know, I sort of
hate to leave this.
Oh, don't leave anything.
Well, are you, uh...
You going to wear
this dress, dear?
No. You can put
that in.
Oh, that's fine.
That's fine.
Nick Charles in this car?
Two cars back.
Two cars back.
Hello, Nick!
Well, how are you?
Are you going to play
detective again?
That's what we want to know.
I'm through detecting for
the rest of my natural life.
Are you going to keep on
with your detective work, Nick?
I've retired. I'm just
going to take care
of my wife's money so I'll
have something in my old age.
You said you'd
retire in New York,
but I noticed
you took that thin man case.
That thin man was a beaut.
They're still talking about it.
Dig us up another thin man,
will you, Nick?
That was a great case, Nick.
You'd take a case like that,
wouldn't you, Nick?
I only took that
to please my wife.
She wants some excitement.
I guess she had it!
Oh, it was wonderful.
Two men tried to k*ll him.
But he's not going to
take any more cases.
You can print that.
That's my darling.
Hello, Harold.
Hiya, Harold.
I'm glad to see you.
So long, Nick!
See you around!
Excuse me, lady.
Hello, fingers.
Well, Nick, how are you?
How's business?
Oh, I quit that racket.
Nick, Nick, look.
My purse is gone.
Oh, darling, isn't that
too bad? Nora, I want you
to know fingers.
This is my wife.
Your wife!
Mm-hmm.
Ha ha ha!
Ha ha ha!
Gee, I... gee,
I didn't know
you were married.
Oh, yes, I'm married.
Nick, what will I do?
I know I had it.
Don't worry, darling.
It will turn up.
Won't it, fingers?
I certainly hope so.
Well, Nick, am I tickled
to death to see you.
Good old Nick.
And married, too!
I didn't know you were married.
Oh, yes, yes.
Well, I'm glad
I bumped into you.
Well, good-bye,
Mrs. Charles.
Good-bye.
Good-bye, fingers.
Come on, dear.
I just can't go off...
come on, we don't
want to embarrass him.
What are you talking about?
He's a purse snatcher.
Think of his feelings.
Well, then, he must
have taken it.
So long, fingers!
So long, Nick!
There you are, dear.
Dear, you do know
the nicest people.
Hello, Nick!
Hello, bill!
Hey, you can start
delivering again!
And all the big kegs!
Hello, Nick!
How are you, boys?
Where have you been, Nick?
Have I been away all my life?
Have you seen the kid?
No. Where is he?
He's staging
a comeback Friday night.
Hey, screwy,
here's Nick Charles!
Hello, Mr. Charles!
Hello, Nick!
How are you, kid?
How's it going?
Never better!
Never better!
Say, now I know I can't lose!
You coming to see me fight?
Mrs. Charles
would never think
of missing one of your fights.
Mrs. Charles! Well, well,
did you ever see me fight?
You got a treat, then!
I'm going to cut
the guy up in ribbons,
if I don't have him
bleeding in the first round.
You'll have him
bleeding? Yeah.
Excuse me, Mrs. Charles.
If my legs will only hold out,
I'll k*ll the guy.
I'm going to knock...
that-a boy, bump.
You'll get him sure.
Give it to him hot!
Sure!
Ok, Harold!
Oh, hello, Nora!
Oh, hello.
Who's that?
Oh, you wouldn't
know them, darling.
They're respectable.
Oh...
♪ Home, home
on the range ♪
Isn't it lovely?
Home. So peaceful.
So quiet.
If anybody wakes me up
for a week,
I'm going to have
the law on them.
Oh, new year's Eve at home.
Or would you know that
this is new year's?
I know.
Oh. I suppose
you got ideas, huh?
Very definite ideas.
I was afraid so.
I'm going to lock the door,
plug the bell,
cut the telephone,
and crawl into bed for a month.
Oh, Nora, you're
my favorite woman.
Here, I'm going to be
in bed at midnight,
so happy new year.
Happy new year.
Come in, come in.
Give me your hat and coat.
Make yourself at home.
It's our house all right.
Let's go in. The man
said it was all right.
Yeah.
Hey, the bar's right in here.
Help yourself.
Thanks.
Ok.
What's the celebration?
We're giving a surprise party
for Nick and Nora.
Oh, Nick and Nora.
Don't you know Nick and Nora?
No.
Neither do I.
That's not going
to spoil my fun.
It's new year's.
What's the odds?
Go on in, fake it.
It's a cinch.
Well, thanks.
Go on in and get some
of that Napoleon Brandy
before it's all gone.
Now, listen,
let's get together on this.
This is supposed
to be a surprise party.
I'm acting surprised.
Not bad, huh?
Oh, no, not at all.
How you doing?
Anyone wise to you here?
No.
What did I tell you?
May I have this dance?
If I was in a fire
on the third floor,
would you save me?
It's too late for you
to be saved, baby.
No, I mean it.
How would you do it?
Well, I'd just pick you up
and put you right down there.
Now you save me!
You put her down
and you save me.
I'm on the third floor, too!
Hey, I'll bet you can't do this!
Watch me. Here I go.
When I picked this big lug up,
he didn't know a thing.
I taught him
everything he knows.
Show 'em that new
arm lock I taught you.
Ok!
Now show 'em that headlock!
This will k*ll you.
Show 'em how you throw
them out in the aisles.

"Hello, Nick. Hello, Nora.
"Welcome home.
We are tendering this little
surprise party for the..."
You can't go through
the kitchen! We're busy!
Hey, where will I put this ice?
Lay it down and don't bother!
Put it in the sink
and break it up.
Where's the oil?
There isn't any more!
Where do you want these?
Over here! Right
down there!
Come back from the store
with some olive oil!
Oh, my toast!
I'll take care of that.
Leave that alone!
Oh, Mr. Charles!
Hello there, Mr. Charles.
I'm glad to see you.
How are you,
Mr. Charles?
How are you, Nick?
Oh, you're looking great!
We saw your pictures
in the paper!
They said you did a good job
in New York.
I guess they'll be
scared to death
if there are any more
murders back there.
I've been scared to go down
in the cellar ever since!
Don't you worry, rose.
If anyone murders you,
I'll catch them.
Oh, Mr. Charles,
don't be talking that way.
What do you think of the party
they're giving you?
Looks like we're giving it.
It does that, now.
That's probably
your aunt Katherine,
Mrs. Charles. She's
phoned several times.
She wants you
to come for dinner.
Good-bye, Mrs. Charles,
I'll see you next year.
She expects you,
too, Mr. Charles.
Me?
There must be some mistake.
She wouldn't want you.
No.
What excuse will I make?
Tell her that I lost
a collar button
in New York and we've
got to go look for it.
It's your cousin
Mrs. Landis, madame.
Oh, thank heavens
it isn't aunt Katherine.
Get out of it, now.
Don't worry.
I wouldn't go through that again
if you had twice as much money.
Hello, Selma.
Nora, I just wanted to make sure
you were coming tonight.
But you've just got to come.
I'm in terrible trouble. Please!
No, I can't tell you now,
but you must come.
I'm desperate!
Selma!
Whom are you calling?
Nora.
Oh, I told you!
I can't help it, I...
there are some pills
in my bag. Take them.
Oh, no, aunt Katherine,
really...
Take them
or I'll call Dr. Kammer!
How are you, Nora?
This is aunt Katherine.
Oh, you ought to know
Selma well enough
not to pay
any attention to that.
Well, you see,
it's new year's Eve,
aunt Katherine.
The old battle-ax.
Shut up!
Excuse me, aunt Katherine,
I was talking to the dog.
But, aunt Katherine...
give me that.
Give it to me.
Yes.
All right, we'll come.
Oh, Nicky, I'm sorry,
but I had to do it.
Selma's in trouble.
You like Selma, don't you?
Well, not that much.
Family dinner, I suppose.
Aunt Katherine...
Uncle Willie, cousin Emily.
Aunt Hattie, cousin Lucius...
Uncle Thomas.
Pour me one, too.
Thanks.
Hello, Asta.
Why are you looking
so down in the mouth?
You got family troubles, too?
For heaven's sake,
do you want the
servants to hear you?
I don't care.
I'm going crazy.
I can't stand it any longer.
I'm going to call the police!
You'll do nothing of the sort!
Haven't we paid out enough
to hush up his other scandals?
He never did anything
like this before.
How do we know...
I told you I'd handle this.
I can't go on!
Quiet!
Beg pardon, madame,
but shall I remove
Mr. Robert's place?
Certainly not!
Mr. Robert
will be here.
Very well.
You know he won't be here.
I know nothing of the sort!
Now go upstairs and make
yourself presentable.
Go on! Hurry!
Hurry now because
everybody's waiting.
Good evening, all.
Good evening, aunt Katherine.
I had a birthday
last week, Katherine.
I'm 83 years old!
83 years old!
What do you think of that?
That's fine, Lucy.
Next year I'll be 84.
Splendid.
Now we're alone,
I have something important
to tell all of you.
What did she say?
Shh!
Is that thing working, Hattie?
This works beautifully!
It's you...
you mumble.
What is it, Katherine?
Nora and her husband
are coming tonight.
Katherine, after the last time?
But, Katherine!
Her husband?
That person?
But you said yourself
you wouldn't have him again.
I know I did,
and my opinion of him
and what he represents
hasn't changed a particle.
Then I can't understand
why you asked him.
I have a very good
reason for asking him,
which you'll know in time.
That must be they now.
Understand now I want you
all to be pleasant to him.
Of course if you say so...
it's going to be very difficult.
Poor Nora. My heart
bleeds for that child.
If that's Mr.
and Mrs. Charles,
show them right in.
Yes, madame.
What are you muttering
to yourself?
I'm trying to get
all the bad words
out of my system.
Good evening, Henry.
Is this the wax works?
Sir?
Nothing, Henry, nothing.
I'll leave my things down here.
Don't worry.
It isn't catching.
Thank you.
Walk this way, sir.
Well, I'll try.
Nicky, pull yourself together.
One squint at aunt Katherine
would sober anybody up.
Mr. and Mrs.
Charles, madame.
How do you do, my dear?
Hello, aunt Katherine.
You remember Nick.
How are you, Nicholas?
Hello, cousin Helen.
How are you, you poor child?
This is Nora's husband.
I think you know everybody.
Oh, yes, yes, I seem
to remember the old faces.
Oh, dear, I want
you to meet uncle Willie.
Poor Nora is so brave.
Uncle Willie, my husband.
Uncle.
And, dear, this is aunt Hattie.
How are you?
Don't mumble, young man.
Don't mumble.
How are you?
She's deaf.
You're telling me.
What did she say?
When you hear the chime,
it will be exactly...
Oh, Selma!
Oh, Nora!
Selma, how are you?
So good to see you.
Hello, Nick.
Thank heavens you came.
Selma, what's
the trouble? Tell me.
Well, we'll
postpone any discussion
till after dinner.
Where's your husband?
Yes, where's Robert?
Robert telephoned that
he was unavoidably detained.
So we'll start without him.
Are you ready?
We haven't quite men
enough to go around,
so, Lucius, will you take
Hattie and Charlotte?
Willie, will you take
Helen and Emily?
Burton, will you take Nora?
Ahem! Ahem! Nicholas!
You will take aunt Lucy.
Come on, Selma.
What was it you were
going to tell me?
Nora, come here!
Just a minute, aunt Katherine.
What was it?
Robert has disappeared.
Disappeared!
Selma! Go on playing.
I can't go on playing.
Nonsense! Go on!
I can't!
I can't! What
are you trying to do?
t*rture me?
Selma!
Nora!
How can you act like this
when you know what
she's going through?
Get Nicholas.
You bet I will.
No! Really?
Well, you amaze me!
Would you explain
that point a bit further?
Uh, well, I wouldn't go
as far as to say that.
What's that?
Oh, uh, just a moment.
Really?
Well, surely you're not
going to let that pass
unchallenged, are you?
You must have something
to say to that.
That's the boy.
I knew you had it in you.
Nick.
Hmm?
Come here.
Oh, yes. If you gentlemen
will excuse me.
I don't know when I've spent
such a stimulating evening.
What is it?
Aunt Katherine
wants to speak to you.
What have I done now?
Do you know why Robert
wasn't here tonight?
Sure. Because
he's smart.
I'm not fooling, darling.
He's disappeared.
That's swell.
Now if we could just get
aunt Katherine to disappear.
We're here.
Oh, Nicholas,
I'm sorry to take you
away from the boys.
Oh, that's quite all right.
Well, how long has
Robert been gone?
3 days. 3 days
without a word.
Did you notify the police?
Certainly not!
And we're not going to.
Oh, no! Robert
may have been kidnapped.
He may be lying dead somewhere.
But we mustn't do
anything about it.
Our precious name
might get into the papers!
Oh, don't pay
any attention to her.
She's exaggerating
the whole affair.
However, to please her,
I thought you might
investigate the matter quietly.
With your experience as a...
Flatfoot.
Well, I didn't mean
to be as blunt as that.
What's the difference?
It's all in the family.
Have you any idea
where he might be?
Yes. He's with some woman.
I know that.
Selma, you know
nothing of the sort.
What about the vanity case
they sent me
from that Chinese restaurant?
That was a stupid
mistake on their part.
Mistake! He's with some woman.
You know it.
Selma, you know
Robert worships you!
He wouldn't...
how can you say such a thing
when you know that he hates me?!
He only married me for my money!
He never did love me!
Sometimes I wish he were dead!
Well, I'm just
a little confused.
Do you want him back
or don't you?
Nick!
Well, of course,
she wants him back!
Selma, don't!
Please, don't!
No. I leave this
in your hands, Nicholas.
If you excuse me, I'll
go back to my guests.
Don't worry, darling.
It will be all right.
Nick will find him.
The one sure way to get him back
is to cut off his money.
I know.
Well, if he doesn't show up
before tomorrow morning,
I'll go down to the police
and see what I can do.
Thank you, Nick.
Mr. Graham
calling, madame.
Ah, David.
Hello, Nick.
Happy new year.
David, how are you?
Nora, it's nice to see you.
Well, thank heaven
you two are back.
Selma, how are you,
dear? Any word yet?
I'll tell you what.
What?
Let's take David and sneak out.
We'll go somewhere
and celebrate the new year.
That's a good idea.
How about it, Selma?
Come on, darling.
It will be like old times
when we were all engaged.
Yes, before we made
any mistakes.
What do you mean mistakes?
Oh, I was thinking of Selma.
Come on, Selma.
Thanks. I want to
stay near a telephone.
You know, just in case.
But you go, David.
No, not on your life.
I'll stay here with you.
Well, then, good night, dear.
Try to have a happy new year.
Happy new year.
Very happy new year, Selma.
Good night, David.
Good night.
We'll say good-bye
to the family.
It will be a pleasure.
Look what I found.
Iced and everything.
Don't you stay here, David.
You go out and have some fun.
Don't be silly.
We can have fun right here.
What's the matter
with me anyway?
Why haven't I any pride?
What can't I face it?
Robert doesn't give
a hang about me.
You can't indefinitely
go on caring for somebody
who doesn't care
for you, can you?
Well, it's been done.
Oh, David, I'm so sorry.
I've been such a fool.
You really ought to hate me
for what I've done to you.
No, now, don't talk like that.
You get the glasses,
and I'll try to open this thing.
No! We're going out.
This is a new year,
the time for resolutions.
I'm through with
Robert. I mean it.
I'm going to get my things.
We're going to celebrate.
We'll start the new year right.
What is it, Henry?
The telephone... has it...
no, madame.
It's Mrs. Forrest.
She would like you to join her
in the drawing room.
All right, Henry.
Guess it's no use.
Please go, David.
Oh, now, Selma.
I'd rather you did, really.
I'll go to bed.
Dr. Kammer's
given me something
to make me sleep.
All right, I'll go.
Good night, Henry.
Good night.
Good night.
Darling, you will try
to find Robert, won't you?
I didn't lose him.
It will get you in right
with aunt Katherine.
That's what I'm afraid of.
Oh, David, what happened?
Selma sent me away.
She wanted to be alone.
I could m*rder that Robert.
Well, wait till I tell you about
the newest thing
he pulled on me.
Called me up several days ago
and told me
if I gave him $25,000,
he'd clear out
and leave Selma for me.
Lovely boy.
What did you say?
Well, I didn't know
exactly what to say.
I asked him to
give me several days
to think it over.
Well, 25,000 is cheap
if he'll really go.
Why don't you get
up a collection?
I know a lot of people
who will be glad to contribute.
Poor girl.
Bad enough with aunt Katherine
and Robert.
Now she's got
that Dr. Kammer.
Who's Dr. Kammer?
Oh, I don't know.
He's some nut psychologist.
Sits around and talks about
her dreams by the hour.
I get the creeps
every time I look at him.
Harold, we want to go someplace
and get the taste
of respectability
out of our mouths.
Ok, Nick.
Well, I don't think I can go.
Oh, David, why not?
Got too much
on my mind, I guess.
I'm glad you're back, anyway.
Happy new year.
Happy new year, David.
Selma was a fool
not to have married him
instead of Robert.
They can't all be as lucky
as you are, darling.
What have you got
to offer, Harold?
There's Tim McCrumb's place,
and there's the Lai Chi,
and there's the tin Dipper.
Is the Lai Chi
a Chinese restaurant?
Yes mam..
Me no looky for Robert.
The Lai Chi.
To the Lai Chi.

Waiter, bring Mr. landis
another drink.
Hello, dancer.
What's the idea?
You better not leave that guy.
Aw, these shoes
are murdering me.
Don't be long.
He might get restless.
Say, I'm getting
pretty fed up with him.
It'll just be till tomorrow.
Then you can turn him loose.
Yeah? Tomorrow's a holiday.
The banks will be closed.
Yeah, that's right.
Well, the day after.
What's the difference?
Is it worth it?
Come on, make it snappy.
I'll keep an eye on him.
Polly! Polly!
Sorry, Sonny, I'm busy.
I got a message for you.
What is it?
Your brother's looking for you.
Well, let him look.
So that's the way it is, huh?
Now, Phil, don't try
to start anything.
I'm in a hurry.
You've been in a hurry
ever since I got back.
Can I help it if I got to work?
That ain't what
I'm kicking about.
What's going on with this drunk?
Nothing.
Oh, no?
What's this?
Give me that!
Say, what are you
trying to do, drive me nuts?
Shut up, or I'll smack you
right in the teeth.
I'm in on that, you know.
Now, Phil, after all...
if you don't cut me in,
the party's off.
I can't cut you in.
It's yours, ain't it?
Yeah, but...
but what?!
Listen, Phil, don't
spoil my makeup!
I got another number to do!
So that's the way it is, huh?
You big lug!
Now, how am I going
to explain that?
There are a lot of things
you'll have to explain before
I'm through with you.
Phil! Phil!
Excuse me.
What are you doing?
Shaking her down again?
What's that to you?
Why don't you lay off
her for a while?
She's busy.
I know.
What do you know?
A few things that are
going on around here.
Smart boy, huh?
You know things.
When are you going to start
shaking me down?
When I want to
shake you down, I'll...
I put up with you
because you're Polly's brother,
but don't think
you can ride too far
on that ticket.
Now, stay away for
a couple of days.
My, what big confetti
they throw here.
Get out of the way,
you big clown!
Ha ha! Well,
that's more like it.
Too bad we didn't
bring aunt Katherine.
Oh, Mr. Charles!
How are you?
Hello, dancer.
Neat way you have
of tossing your customers out.
His sister works here.
I just get tired
of him sometimes.
I felt a g*n under his left arm.
Just breaking it in
for a friend.
I want you to meet my partner.
This is Lum Kee.
Mr. Charles.
And Mrs. Charles.
I'm your friend, you bet you.
You sent his brother up,
remember?
Lum Yunk.
Oh, yes, yes.
He was the one
who spread out
some tongue differences
to include a bank stickup.
You bet you.
You catch my brother.
You play trick on him.
No play trick on him,
no catch him.
You bet you.
Is he still in?
You bet you...
for 5 year more.
Excuse, please.
Is he a g*nman, too?
No, but you never can tell
how close brothers are.
Thought you might like to know.
Thanks.
He's a great guy
to have liking you.
This way,
Mrs. Charles.
Help Mr. Charles.
Many customers tonight?
Oh, yes. We always do a pretty
good business, you know.
Mm-hmm.
Follow me.
Nicky, there's Robert.
Yes, I know.
Why didn't you
tell me? Robert!
Why, Robert,
where have you been?
Well, fancy meeting you here.
Why haven't you sent
any word to Selma?
She's almost crazy with worry.
She ought to know better by now.
Well, Nicholas!
Oh! How's it coming?
Fine, up till now.
Sorry I can't ask you
to sit down.
Oh, that's all right.
I'll ask her.
Nora, won't you sit down?
So... She sent the great big
detective to find me.
I have a table for you
across the room,
Mr. Charles.
I think you'll be more
comfortable there.
Oh, I'm sure they would.
I'll be over in just
a minute. Thanks.
Why don't you call Selma
and tell her you're all right?
Well, don't exaggerate.
Just call her.
Well, you can tell her...
When you go back
to report on me.
Tell her I'm having
a swell time,
and I'm not going back
unless I have to.
And I don't think I'll have to.
I'll be delighted
to tell her that.
Well, you'll forgive us
if we tear ourselves away.
Uh, dancer seems a bit anxious.
Hello, handsome!
Is he a friend of yours?
On the contrary.
A relation.
Hmm. He's been
hanging around here
for 3 days, drunk.
Got a case on our prima Donna.
I wish you'd toss him out.
His wife's going crazy.
That's too bad.
I'll speak to his girlfriend.
Well, I've done my duty.
I wonder what's up.
Up where?
Up there.
Where?
There. And it
comes out here.
Ah, scotch...
Probably.
Some of his relatives
just flew in.
What'll we do?
Give the customers one more song
and knock off for the night.
Take him up to your place
and keep him.
Ok.
Nicky, what time is it?
It's 25 till 12:00,
and our first new year's alone.
Hello, Nick!
Maybe I was wrong.
Hello, Joe!
Hello.
Excuse me, lady.
Say, Nick, Willie the
weeper's outside, see?
Oh. When did
he get out?
He got out this morning, see,
and he's on parole, see?
According to rules
and regulations,
he ought to be mingling
with some respectable
people, see?
I thought you had
a nice table here,
see? Maybe, uh...
Oh, by all means.
Oh, that's fine.
You're a gent.
Hey, boys!
Everything all right,
Mr. Charles?
Everything's all something.
You needn't worry
about Mr. landis.
Polly's going to see
he gets home all right.
Waiter! No check
for this table.
Anything they want
is on the house.
Oh, I can't let
you do that, see?
Ah, but I insist.
You're my guests.
Come on, boys!
This'll mean a lot
to Willie, see?
New year's Eve
and everything, see?
All right, dancer,
if you insist.
It's mighty wight of you.
Meet the rest of my party.
Hi.
Gentlemen, be seated.
This is Willie.
You remember Willie.
Well, how are you?
Glad to see you, Willie.
Likewise.
I am honored to be
at your
coming-out party.
Nora, this is Willie the weeper.
Delighted.
Likewise.
And the boys.
Hi.
How do you do?
Do you boys know dancer?
I don't want to know him.
Aw, he's a crumb.
Don't say that, boys.
He's giving the party.
Everything's on the house.
Yeah?
That right?
Well, that's different.
Why didn't you say so?
Drinks and everything?
Sure.
Champagne, boys.
Me, too!
Sure, champagne.
Willie?
Scotch... With
a champagne chaser.
Likewise.
What do you say?
Wouldn't take much to make me
leave this town for good.
We could have a lot
of fun on 25,000.
What's the use talking about
that? You haven't got it yet.
Don't worry, I'll get it.
When did he say
he'd let you know?
Tomorrow.
There's my number.
I got to go on.
Listen, go and call him now.
Don't let anybody hear you.
If he says he'll give it
to you tonight,
I'll go with you right away.
We got time for
one more song, folks,
before the new year.
Miss Polly Byrnes will sing
a new number for you...
smoke dreams.
Where's he going?
Getting his hat and coat.
Uh, say...
Get me mine, will you?

Boy, you certainly can pick 'em.
I never seen such a guy.
Every time I meet him,
he's got another
good-looking gal.
We haven't met for years.
Oh?
When he gives you the sack,
let me know, will you?
I certainly will.
She's hot-looking,
ain't she?
Shut up, you lug.
It's his wife.

Well, have you

Well, I can't give it

Well, I have some bonds

well, of course
they're negotiable.
Now, wait a minute!
Just a minute.
That's a lot of money.
How do I know you'll
keep your promise?
How do I know you'll
really stay away, and...
even if Selma does decide
to get a divorce,
how do I know
you won't fight it?
All right. Forget about
it. I'll go on home.
Selma will be tickled
to death to see me.
Hmm?
I'm at the Lai Chi club.
All right, I'll meet you there
in a couple of minutes.
Don't keep me waiting, though.
I might change my mind.

You know, it's all to the good,
them seeing him here plastered.
But we can't take
a chance on them
tipping off his wife
and having her bang in.
Make it snappy.
Ok.
We want Polly!
Where's Polly?
We want Polly!
Come on, now,
let us have Polly!
We want Polly!
We want Polly, see?
We come here,
spend all this dough,
and what does she do?
She sings one song and quits.
Now, boys, she had to run along.
Thanks.
Glad to be of service.
Do you think she'll
really take him home?
She'll take him somewhere,
I'm sure of that.
What do you mean?
I mean, did I ever tell you
that you're the most
fascinating woman
this side of the Rockies?
Wait till you've seen me
on the other side.
And I said to him,
"you ain't gonna give me
a ticket, you big flatfoot,
and you know it," I said.
"I got a right to turn there,
and you know it," I said.
I said, "I ain't got all night
"to be sitting here gassing,
so go Polish your buttons
and leave me be on my way,
you fat palooka," I said.
I know, and then
you busted our crime.
All right.
Thank you, sir Galahad.
You'll keep your promise?
You don't mind if
I go home for 10 minutes?
What for?
Don't worry. I won't see
your precious Selma.
I just want to get some clothes.
10 minutes shouldn't
matter to a man
who's waited
as long as you have.
Well, ta-ta.
I'm worried.
I'm worried!
I'm going to phone
and see if Robert got home!
I don't care whose wife she is.
I don't like a dame
that gets noisy after
she's had a few snifters.
Don't you think I'd better?
All right, but hurry.
It's almost 12:00.
I'll be right back.
Here. Get on that phone
and stay on it. Hurry.
Well, that settles that.
Never mind.
They don't answer.
I told her to take him
straight to her place.
Mr. landis?
Yeah. I wanted her
to get him in shape
so he could go home.
Mr. landis on phone.
I hear him say he go home.
Oh, he did, huh?
Good.
He's a relative
of Mr. Charles.
Felt sort of responsible.
Oh, well...
I think I'll go out
and get some fresh air
in one of my lungs.
Be back in a minute.
Robert!
Hello, Selma.
How are you?
Where have you been?
Oh, why do you do these things?
I've been going crazy.
There, there, darling.
No, no.
I won't this time.
I won't forgive you.
You're not going
to make a fool of me again.
All right, darling.
I only came for a moment
to get some clothes.
Where are you going?
A little trip.
No, you're not!
I won't have it!
I won't!
Ohh...
Unh...
Want to kiss me
good-bye, darling?
Thank you.
Selma, Selma, what's happened?
He was going away,
and I tried to stop him.
Now, Selma, listen to me.
Now, listen!
I want you to go back
to the house.
You've never had a p*stol,
you understand? Hear me?
You've never been
out of the house tonight.
You don't know anything
about this. Understand?
Now, come on. Hurry.
Happy new year!
Happy new year, everybody!
Happy new year, darling...
uh... Oh.
Excuse me. Ha ha!
I guess there must
be some mistake.
Oh, no!
Why, yes.
In the dark...
And my wife said that
she'd be right back...
Oh, yeah?!
Uh... Hmm?
Excuse me.
Happy new year.
Happy new year to you, too.
Nora! Darling! Sugar!
Happy new year!
Nicky, you're bleeding!
Hmm?
Yes, dear.
Oh, yes, yes.
A little accident.
I know. This
new year's traffic
is terrible, isn't it?
Yes. You made any
new year's resolutions?
Not yet. Any complaints
or suggestions?
Uh-huh. A few.
Which?
Complaints.
All right. sh**t.
Well, you don't scold,
you don't nag...
And you look far too pretty
in the mornings.
All right, I'll remember.
Must scold, must nag,
mustn't be too pretty
in the mornings.
Happy new year, baby!
Say, what are you
doing here, anyway?
Still trying to call Selma.
Well, what...
oh. Well, come on.
I'll find you a phone.
Hello, dancer.
Come in, come in.
Once a gumheel,
always a gumheel, huh?
And I don't like gumheels.
But I thought you'd quit it
when you married a pot of money.
Did he call me a pot?
You know, I don't like
to be critical, dancer,
but, uh... You know,
it doesn't look quite right
when you and your partner
and your prima Donna
and your best customer
all go out at the same time.
Gives the place
a sort of vacant look.
Have you ever been
thrown out of a place,
Mr. Charles?
Let's see. How many
was it up to yesterday,
Mrs. Charles?
Well, how many places
have you been in,
Mr. Charles?
Hello. Aunt Katherine?
This is Nick.
I mean, Nicholas.
What?
Oh.
Yes, I will.
Well, now, if you're
through in here...
Ahh... Polly.
Another of our travelers
has returned.
I've only...
Ah... No sooner
said than done.
Quite a gathering of the clans.
I wonder which one of you
would be more surprised
if Robert landis
were to walk in here right now.
Of course, you know that that
couldn't happen,
don't you, dancer?
I don't know what
you're talking about,
and I don't care.
Now get out of here.
What is it, Nick?
Robert's been k*lled.
k*lled?!
Get out of here!
Oh, no. On the contrary,
we're going to have
a lot more people in.
Give me that phone.
Certainly.
See?
You better go to Selma, Nora.
She may need you.
Hello? This is Nick
Charles speaking.
I want to get hold
of lieutenant Abrams
of the homicide squad.
Why are you calling him?
It's a cinch
none of us shot landis.
Maybe he'll explain
how you knew he was shot.
Hey! What are
you doing there?
How did Mrs. landis
and her husband
get on together?
Any fights?
Any arguments?
No, sir.
Mr. Abraham!
How dare you question
my servants?
Lady, a man's been k*lled.
I got to find out who did it.
Surely, you don't think...
how do I know what to think
if nobody'll tell me anything?
Did you hear
anyone leave the house
after Mr. landis left?
Certainly not!
Will you please let him talk?
Mr. Abraham...
my name is lieutenant Abrams!
Well?
No, sir.
All right,
I'll see you all later.
Obviously, just a holdup.
A holdup?
With that bracelet and
those bonds left on him?
Henry, will you show
lieutenant Abrahamson out?
Lady, I'm not going
till I see
Mrs. landis.
Now, look, I can't help it
if you don't like me.
I'm just doing my duty.
I tell you, Mrs. landis
cannot see anyone!
She's under the care
of a doctor.
What's her doctor's name?
Dr. Kammer.
Dr. Adolph Kammer?
Yes.
Oh... So that's
the way it is.
Precisely.
Sorry to inconvenience
you, lieutenant Abrams.
Ok, doc. Then you're willing
to take the responsibility
of not letting me talk to her?
My dear sir,
it's not a question
of responsibility.
Mrs. landis has had
a very great shock.
It was necessary to
give her something
to quiet her nerves.
Could she talk
to you in her sleep?
When'll she be awake?
Not for some hours.
Do you often have
to give Mrs. landis
things to quiet her?
Ok, doc, check that off.
Then, is she crazy?
You're insulting!
Lady, I've seen this guy
3 times in my life,
and all 3 times, he was
on a witness stand
testifying that
someone was nuts.
First it was
that Mrs. Gerris.
Then the Darryl woman.
By golly, she shot
her husband, too.
Too?!
What right have you
to say a thing like that?
In view of that very
definite accusation,
I think, miss Forrest,
that you should insist
that your attorney is present
at any future interviews
with the police.
Anybody's tongue
is liable to slip.
Lieutenant Abrams!
Hurry. Nick's
waiting for you down
at the Lai Chi club.
He's got them all down there.
What happened?
I don't know.
He knows.
He'll tell you everything.
I hope somebody
can tell me something.
Where's Selma?
She's sleeping.
She's not to be disturbed.
I won't disturb her,
but I'm going to be
there when she wakes up.
Well?
I don't think that, as yet,
there is any reason for alarm.
Selma.
Selma.
They're... they're going
to arrest me.
They're going to
arrest me, aren't they?
No, no. Of course
they're not, dear.
They all believe I did it...
aunt Katherine,
the doctor, all of them.
No, no, Selma.
They don't think that at all.
I heard them.
I know.
Now, darling...
But I didn't k*ll him!
I didn't... I didn't...
I'm... I'm sure I didn't.
You'll help me, won't you, Nora?
Why... why, of course,
darling,
but you'd better lie down now
and get some rest.
They... they gave me
some pills,
but I didn't take them.
You should have, dear.
You need to sleep.
No, no. No, I can't.
I can't.
I've got to think.
D-David... David!
What about David?
He thinks so, too.
He... he... he must think so,
or he wouldn't have...
he wouldn't have what?
Nothing. Nothing.
Oh... You tell him
I didn't.
Tell him I didn't do it.
Darling, couldn't you telephone?
No. No, someone
might be listening.
You go to him.
Tell him I didn't
do it. Hurry!
All right, Selma, I will.
This is your
news reporter speaking.
The old year was hardly out
when death struck savagely
in the slaying of Robert landis,
wealthy young society playboy.
Mystery surrounds
the sh**ting...
It's I... Nora!
Well, hello, Nora.
This is a surprise.
Nick with you?
What's the matter?
Just let me sit down.
Don't you know what's happened?
No. What?
Oh...
Well, first, Robert was k*lled.
He was k*lled?!
Yes.
We saw him at the...
David, look!
That's the brother of the girl
that was with Robert!
Don't let him get away.
He might know something.
I'll get him as
he comes out the alley.
Not so fast, buddy.
Mr. law speaking.
Get inside there.
Who you got in there with you?
Hey, you!
Just a minute.
Get out of that window.
What are you trying
to do? Make a getaway?
I'm not trying
to make a getaway.
There was someone
on the fire escape.
Where is he?
He's gone now.
All right, then.
Let's get going.
Officer, this lady is...
I know all about this lady.
I been trailing her
ever since she left
the Forrest house.
Come on, let's get
together here.
Where are we going?
We're going to headquarters.
There must be some mistake.
I'm Mrs. Nick Charles.
Yeah, and I'm mother goose.
Step on it, girlie.
Let's go.
I've been trying to tell you
for the last half-hour, none
of us had anything to do with...
shut up, dancer.
If I want more of your
charm, I'll ask for it.
Let her talk.
Now go on.
I took him home,
like dancer told you.
Did you hear a shot?
I heard something...
like backfire from
an automobile.
It was foggy, and...
well, I was too far away
to see anything.
I thought I'd better get
out of the neighborhood
if I didn't want
to get into trouble.
Aw, phooey!
Why don't you ask her
what she was too far away from?
From wherever it was
it happened.
If I hadn't been too far away,
I would've known what it was,
would I?
Well, I...
I give up.
All right, dancer,
where were you?
I went out to get some air.
What city ordinance
does that break?
I went with him.
Where did you go
for all this air?
Air pretty much same everywhere.
We go in my car, ride around.
Ask chauffeur.
Riding around, eh?
New year's Eve,
the place is jammed,
and you two are riding around.
Phooey!
You listen to me!
You don't know who I am!
I came here to see a client!
This is very important business!
No, you listen to me!
You can't do this to me!
Hey, hey, lay him down.
Hello, Casper.
He's our lawyer.
I knew there'd be
some shyster around.
Well, well, what is this?
Do I know? So a guy comes in
and buys a drink.
He goes out,
and somebody kills him.
What are we supposed to do?
Give the customers
insurance with the drinks?
Not a bad idea.
I didn't recognize you,
Mr. Charles!
Remember me?
Floyd Casper!
Oh, yes, yes.
How are you?
Always kidding.
Why, Abrams...
You don't think that
these people would have
anything to do
with a thing like that!
Why, I've known
this lad since...
save that
for the D.A.
You got a g*n?
Sure... And a permit.
You? You!
If you want to take those,
we'd like a receipt.
Tell your shyster
of yours to shut up,
or I'll drag you down
to the hall of justice.
On what charges?
Witnesses.
To ask them questions.
You ought to know.
Your clients spend 9/10
of their time doing it.
Take these down and check them
with the b*llet
that k*lled landis.
Hold it a minute.
You. You got a g*n?
No.
What did you do with it?
I never had one.
Nobody has anything,
nobody knows anything.
All right, go ahead.
Miss Byrnes has a brother
who has a g*n.
And my chauffeur tells me
that he hung around outside
until just about the time
she and landis left.
If he was there,
he was just hanging
around waiting for me.
He wouldn't k*ll Robert,
Mr. Charles.
He wouldn't have no reason!
I'm not accusing anyone.
I'm just talking.
But I think you ought
to find him.
At least he might give
his version as to why
dancer threw him out.
If that little rat
tries to hang anything
on me, I'll...
you leave my brother
out of this!
Take it easy, take it easy!
That's what they want.
They want to get you
at each other's throats.
Just answer what you want to
and don't let 'em get you.
I can't stand that shyster!
I was beginning to suspect that.
You call me, Nick?
No, not yet, Harold,
but you ought to stick around.
Outside. It's, uh...
Very close in here.
Where is this brother of yours
that didn't k*ll anyone?
He lives in a hotel
on Turk street.
I don't know just where.
You don't know much
of anything, do you?
I honestly don't know
which hotel!
Phil's always moving.
What's the matter?
Does he have to move every
time he don't k*ll someone?
Don't be so funny.
You got me in stitches.
Stay where you are, everybody!
Get that switch!
I'll get them, Nick!
Hello?
Hello... oh.
Hello?
What? I can't hear you...
so much noise
going on around here.
What?
Oh, headquarters?
Well, yeah, this is
Nick Charles speaking.
Hey, hey, take it easy,
will you, fellas?
I can't hear a thing.
Look, dancer just got away.
Yeah, have the boys
pick him up, will you?
It's all right, Nick, I got him.
Wait a minute. My chauffeur
thinks he's got him.
I've got him!
No!
No, it's Abrams he's got.
Harold, you better let him up.
He may not like that.
Say!
What's the idea?
Take it easy, lady.
Let go of me, will you?
What do you think you're doing?
The lights went out.
Do you want me
to stand out there
while Nick might be in trouble?
What was the sh**ting?
I guess it was me.
Did you get him?
I thought it was him
coming through the door,
but I guess it was
only me in that mirror.
And I want...
and I want...
I want to have
a description of that
brother of yours.
What are you picking
on Phil for?
What about Mrs. landis
k*lling him?
Maybe she found out
we was going away together.
Maybe she found out
about that Graham
giving him the bonds.
Don't talk till you
get legal advice!
You're their lawyer, not mine!
How do I know you won't leave me
holding the bag?
Now we're getting somewhere.
Pick up Mrs. landis,
doctor or no doctor.
Come on, all of you.
We're going down
to headquarters.
You can't do that!
Huh?
Uh... All it sounds like to me
is that they picked up my
wife in a man's apartment.
Say it again.
That's it.
That's what she says.
I've never seen
your wife myself.
Let me talk to him.
Graham.
David Graham.
Hold him? Ok.
Why this is all crazy.
That can't be Nick.
It's him, all right.
Tell him it's Nora.
She says to say
it's Nora, Mr. Charles.
Nora? Nah...
Sounds like a phony to me.
Better throw her
in the fish tank
till I get down there.
Right.
Well?
Throw her in the fish tank.
What? Why...
throw her in the fish tank.
Why, of all the...
Will you open this door
or will I kick it in?
What did I tell you
about horning in
on somebody else's game?
All right, matron.
How you do?
I'd like to get
this gal out of
the women's tank.
Oh, yes.
Is this the one
that was doing the fan dance?
Fan dance?
Yes.
Well, if it is,
she's been holding out on me.
Hi there.
Say, are you a lawyer?
Hey! Did Mr. Fineburg
send you?
Who you looking for?
Will I do?
Bail us out of here!
Do you see her?
No, I guess she isn't here.
Nicky, here I am!
Excuse me!
Wait a minute.
Huh?
Excuse me.
Here I am.
Uh, well... This
is a fine way
to start the new year.
Nicky, get me out of here.
How long has this
thing with David
been going on?
Oh, stop that.
Get me out of here.
I've got something to tell you.
About the case?
Yes.
I'll get you out
on one condition.
No more detecting,
no more cases. Promise?
But this is important.
Never mind.
Nick!
Well?
I promise.
All right.
Let her out.
Come on.
Are you
Mrs. Charles?
Yes.
Lieutenant Abrams wants
you for questioning.
Questioning?
Don't worry, darling.
I'll write you every day.
Were you and landis
on good terms?
Decidedly not.
On bad terms?
Very bad.
You and Mrs. landis
were once engaged.
That's right.
Until landis came along?
Yes, sir.
Ever ask her to divorce him
and marry you?
I may have. She
never said she would.
But you hoped she would.
And you thought with him
out of the way, she might.
Now, look, I didn't k*ll Robert.
Did I say you did?
But you did pay him to go away.
Yes. Yes, I did.
Let them in.
Will you please
sit down, Mrs. Charles?
I, uh, I have to ask your wife
a couple of
questions, Mr. Charles.
I'm sorry.
Oh, that's quite all right.
Now, Mrs. Charles,
why did you go to
Mr. Graham's apartment?
Why... Why...
Well, perhaps I better leave.
Why, Selma had a silly idea
that David thought
she k*lled Robert,
and she wanted me
to go and tell him
that she didn't.
Oh, now, wait a minute.
I can't imagine her thinking
a thing like that.
That's ridiculous.
I haven't seen her for two days.
Will you come in,
Mrs. landis?
Selma...
Nora.
Dear, sit down.
Oh! David, I didn't want
you dragged into this.
Mrs. landis,
why did Mr. Graham
think you k*lled...
now, I never said that,
and I never thought it
for a minute!
It's all right, David.
He had every right
to think I did it.
He's just trying to protect me.
He heard a shot...
He came running up to me...
Just a minute.
What were you doing there?
I wanted to make sure
that he kept his
promise to go away.
Oh, ok. Go on.
Well, he rushed up to me
and found me standing near
Robert with a g*n in my hand.
But the shot came
from round the corner,
from in front of me.
You mean you didn't...
No.
Look at the g*n, David.
It hasn't been fired.
Oh, Selma...
Selma, forgive me.
It's all right, David,
of course I forgive you.
Well, that's all settled.
Come on, Nora.
Good-bye, lieutenant.
Good-bye, all.
Now, wait a minute.
Maybe he believes you.
He's in love with you.
But I got to have
something more than that.
Where's the g*n?
I've got to see
that g*n, Mrs. landis.
I haven't got the g*n.
I... I gave it to David.
David, where's...
what is it, David?
Selma, I thought
you were guilty.
I thought I was doing
the only thing. I...
I threw the g*n away.
You threw the g*n away!
This is the craziest case.
But they can find it.
I can tell them
exactly where I threw it.
I'll send divers down for it.
Well, they've got to find it!
Ah, phooey! She don't
want that g*n back
any more than you do.
Swear out a warrant
for the arrest
of Mrs. landis on
the suspicion of m*rder.
Here.
Get some whiskey.
Yes.
For both of us.
And that goes for you, too.
Go on!
What did you say?
Hmm?
Did you say something
about scrambled eggs?
No, darling. You must
have been dreaming.
Are you hungry?
No. Why? Are you?
You want some
scrambled eggs, dear?
'Cause I can fix them for you
if you want them.
Oh, no, darling.
I don't care for any.
No? Sure?
Really.
Oh, well, good night, baby.
Good night.
After all, if I want
scrambled eggs,
I can get them for myself.
Mm-hmm.
Of course, I'm not as
good a cook as you are.
Uh-uh.
Don't bother about me.
You go right on
sleeping, darling.
I love to watch you sleep.
You look so cute.
Nicky? Have you
any pictures
of yourself taken as a baby?
Hmm? No. No.
Ah, that's a shame.
I want to see
what you looked like.
Well... I'll have some
taken in the morning.
Poor Selma...
Poor David.
Nicky? Can you
reach the water?
Hmm?
Can you reach the water?
Mm-hmm.
Oh, no, I don't want it.
I just wanted to be sure
you could reach it.
Come on...
I'll scramble those eggs.
Now, if you can manage the
bread, I'll whip you up
some scrambled eggs
that'll be a poem.
I'm so glad you're hungry, too.
Here. Chase this.
Oh, no, no. This.
Go get it.
Now... Eggs, milk...
Butter.
Well...
What's the matter?
Oh, I'm thinking of poor Selma
down in that jail.
Now, don't worry, darling.
Tomorrow they'll find the g*n,
and it won't have been fired,
and Selma will be set free.
But you don't really
think she did it?
No. Now,
where's the salt?
Over there.
You're not saying that
just to make me happy, are you?
You really mean it?
No.
No, what?
No pepper.
Well, it's there,
next to the salt.
Oh, thanks.
Then what?
Yes, I mean it.
Of course you're right.
She didn't do it.
She couldn't have done it.
I don't think I'd k*ll you
if you ran off
with another woman.
Well, that's something
to look forward to.
I might, though.
Uh... You mind, sugar?
Oh!
Hey!
Don't forget to shut the gate!
Nick, what was it?
Oh, it was a stone.
Look! It's got
a note tied to it!
Ha ha!
Silly little woman.
I told her to stop writing me.
Asta!
Asta, drop that!
Asta!
Asta, drop that!
That's a clue!
Oh, he thinks we're playing!
Nicky, Nicky, come help me!
Look at him.
Huh? Where is he?
Over there.
Has he got the...
the n-o-t-e?
Yes.
Don't pay any attention to him.
Just be nonchalant.
Asta!
Asta!
D-d-darling, let me
discipline him.
Asta!
Come here, this minute.
You hear me?
This minute!
Asta! Asta!
Ooh!
Never mind me.
Get him.
Yes.
Asta!
Did you get it?
Got the rock.
Nick! Nick!
He's eating it up!
Asta...
Here. Look!
Ppp! Ppp!
Pretty. Pretty.
Pretty rock.
Get the pretty rock!
That-a boy!
Asta, look, look!
See? See the pretty rock?
When he runs after the rock,
you grab the paper.
Get it, Asta.
Get the pretty rock.
That's a good doggy.
I have it.
"Mr. Charles,
Phil Byrnes...
"Alias Ralph west is a ex con...
"And was married
to Polly in topeker
3 years ago.
He lives..."
What are we supposed to do?
Send him an anniversary present?
Nicky, phone Abrams.
And have him here
keeping us up all night?
Well, don't you see?
If Phil is her husband,
then he shot Robert
because he found out
about him and Polly.
Nicky, you must phone.
Well, just as you say.
Here, you.
Bad Asta.
You swallowed that address.
How could you?
And I've been boasting
about what a smart dog you were.
Just for that,
you sleep outside.
Nicky?
Paper!
Paper!
Extra!
10 cents a copy!
Extra!
I don't think
Mr. Charles wishes
to see anyone.
You just tell Mr. Charles
I'm here. That's all.
Good morning, Peters.
Mrs. Charles couldn't
sleep, so I'm up.
Good morning, Peters.
Good evening, madam.
Good evening?
Well, it's only 6:30.
Yes, sir.
It's still dark.
It's dark again, sir.
You slept right through the day.
Was it a nice day?
A dreadful day, madame.
The reporters and the police
were trying to
get up here all day.
I guess we didn't miss a thing.
Oh, quick, the morning papers.
The morning papers
are not out yet, madam.
Not out yet?
These are the evening papers.
There you are.
Well, it doesn't seem right,
the evening papers
with breakfast.
If you hadn't wakened me,
we'd have slept
right through till morning,
and then everything
would have been all right.
Mr. Charles,
there's one
of those policemen
outside the door right now.
What shall I do about it?
Oh, show him in.
He probably wants to question
Mrs. Charles again.
It doesn't say whether
they found the g*n.
Oh, I forgot, I'm mad at you.
Hmm!
Look at him prancing around
with that clue in him.
Oh, hello,
Mr. Abrams.
Good morning.
Good evening.
Yes. Oh, yes.
Good evening.
Will you have some breakfast?
Thanks. I just
had dinner.
Oh. I give up.
Have the found the g*n?
No.
Oh, Nick.
Think you're gonna convict her
if you don't find it?
Maybe I do and maybe I don't.
It's what the...
it's what
the D.A. Thinks.
What about the other g*ns?
Dancer's and Lum Kee's?
They're .38's,
all right,
like he was k*lled with.
But the experts say
they're not the g*ns
that did it.
Oh. 50 will get you
250 that she didn't do it.
You'd have to say that,
being you're family.
But that Lai Chi g*ng
has got the best out
in the world.
They wouldn't have k*lled him
till they cashed his check.
His check?
Oh, I forgot.
You didn't hear about that.
He gave Polly
a check for $20,000 yesterday.
$20,000? Robert never had
$20,000 in his life.
Yes, he did.
I went to the bank
to see about it.
Here it is.
His wife put this in his account
just a couple of days ago.
Looks all right.
Have you got any of his checks?
I got all of his,
and they're ok, too.
I just want the ones
he gave to Polly.
Well, here's the
first one for $75.
75, that's better.
And here's the next one for 100.
100? Going up, huh?
Perfect.
Forgery.
Let me have the big check.
Let me see!
I've never seen a forged check.
There you are.
How do you have your eggs?
Where's your phone?
It's over there on the table
between the bed.
Well, I can't see anything.
Mr. Charles, where is
the rest of this phone?
In the drawer.
Hey, now, nice doggy.
Will you tell him I just
want to use the phone?
Now, behave yourself, will you?
Look out.
Well, I don't understand.
The signatures look
exactly alike to me.
That's just it.
That's just what?
Nobody writes this
much the same twice.
They traced these signatures
from this first check.
Oh...
"Oooh..."
Hello. Hello, Joe?
Joe? Joe? Go down
and pick up that
Polly Byrnes for me.
Ok. Say, do you
want this thing
back in the drawer?
No, that's all right.
Uh...
Look, will you call
this bloodhound off so
I can get out of here?
Asta! Asta,
come here.
Don't you know
Mr. Abrams is on our side?
What's the matter
with you on this case?
You're losing your grip.
Get dancer yet?
Yeah, he showed up
as soon as it was light.
Had a story about not
wanting to be around
when the sh**ting
started, him without his g*n.
What about Phil?
Found him?
Nope.
Somebody threw this through
our window last night.
Where's the rest of it?
Asta ate it.
Polly said it was
a hotel on Turk street.
That's right.
Say...
You want to give it
a try with me?
Yes, if you give me a couple
of minutes to dress.
Yes, you wait downstairs,
we'll be right down.
Hey, wait a minute!
Where do you get
that "we" stuff?
I'm coming with you.
Oh, not cured yet, huh?
Certainly not.
Don't worry, darling,
I won't be in the way.
Well, of course
you won't, sugar.
I just want to make sure.
Nick!
Nick! You dog!
Let me out!
You stay here, in case
he tries to make a break.
Is Phil Byrnes in?
We ain't got no Phil Byrnes.
Have you got a Ralph west?
Yep.
Is he in?
I don't know.
Any way of finding out?
Walk upstairs if you
want. Room 212.
Get on the back stairs.
Telegram
for Mr. west.
After you, my dear lieutenant.
Dead, all right.
Strangled.
Beaten up some
before the strangling set in.
Someone's hair in his hand.
Watch out. Pair
of spectacles.
I'll have the boys phone.
We'll give this room
a good casing.
Here's another .38 for
your experts to match up.
I guess the heater
is his, all right.
He's wearing an empty
shoulder holster...
And I guess this is the key
to that Byrnes girl's apartment.
It's got her number
stamped on it.
Another good guess
would be that Selma landis
didn't do this.
Fair enough.
But he wasn't k*lled
the way landis was either.
I'd like to know what
your laboratory says
about that hair
and those cheaters.
Anything else on your mind?
Yes. That key... could I borrow it
for about an hour?
Sure.
How about your skeleton key
just for good measure?
All right.
Say, what are you looking for?
I haven't the faintest idea.
Just a hunch.
This is straight
from the feedbag.
They just found Phil's body,
strangled to death.
Say, that's tough.
Polly's going
to feel bad. Thanks.
Polly in yet?
No, police here,
looking for her.
Well, stall them.
Keep them here.
I'm going up to her place.
Be back in a minute.
Get out there!
Wait, brother, wait.
Say, what is this, bank night?
Read all about the big m*rder!
Extra! Paper!
Read all about it!
Flash news bulletin:
A body believed
to be that of the janitor
was found in a hamper in the
basement of 346 white street.
Police linked this m*rder
with the landis k*lling.
Paper! Read all about
the big m*rder!
m*rder! m*rder! m*rder!
Sorry to have to ask you to
come to a place like this.
Is it Nick? Where is he?
Is he hurt?
No, he's all right.
He's upstairs now.
What I asked you down for is,
we found a man's body here.
He was a janitor
in this building.
Been dead about 24 hours.
Shot near the phone there.
Now the telephone company
tells us that at about 7:30
last night... that'd be
just before he was shot...
someone here called up
information
and asked for
Nick Charles' number.
Now, Mr. Charles
doesn't remember this
"Pedro Domingues", and I thought
perhaps you might be able...
Pedro Domingues...
He was my father's gardener...
About 6 years ago.
A small man with a mustache?
Yeah, that's the one.
Hello?
Just a minute.
Call for you, lieutenant.
Would you mind going down
and taking a look,
just to make sure?
Certainly, now.
Would you take
Mrs. Charles down?
Right.
Hello?
Well, those glasses you found
in Phil Byrnes' place...
Are nothing but window pane.
The hair is false,
and the g*n is not the one
that was used on landis.
Ah... You're
a great help.
Did you find out about
the fingerprints in his room?
Dancer's, eh?
Well, that helps a little.
No others?
Ok. Oh...
Get to work
on this case, will you?
And take a look at the b*llet
that k*lled this guy. Thanks.
Funny you didn't recognize
this Pedro Domingues.
Why?
Did Nora know him?
Yeah. Used to be
her father's gardener.
Oh.
Remember him now?
Whoever remembers a gardener
unless he squirts a hose at you?
Here, hold this, will you?
What is it?
You'll see in a minute.
Think Mrs. landis
might know this Pedro?
She might.
And that aunt Katherine?
Possible.
What do you think you're doing?
There it is.
Hold that, will you?
Well, what do you know
about that? A ladder.
Sure.
And 50 will
get you $2.50
that it just reaches down
to Polly's apartment below...
With this left over
for good measure
when he got there.
Well, let's try it.
Sure.
This end first.
How about it?
You're right.
Yeah. Now what'd you
find out about
the person who occupied
this place?
Not a thing.
Not a fingerprint
in the room, not
a stitch of clothes,
nothing.
Anything in Pedro's books?
No, just that
someone named Anderson
took it a week ago.
Paid cash in advance.
That's all, huh?
Oh, there's a record
of a new lock on the door.
Bought it yesterday.
Wait a minute. What does
the card on the door say?
That won't help you much.
No, just Anderson.
No front name.
No Mr., Mrs.,
or miss.
Isn't that just dandy?
You know, I got a feeling
if we could just find out
who took this place...
I took this.
You took what?
I took this picture.
I found it in Pedro's apartment.
I wanted to show it to you.
You see, he was our gardener.
These are the servants we had
down at father's place.
There's Pedro...
And rose...
And there's Annie...
Oh, yes, darling,
that's just fine,
and I'm sure lieutenant Abrams
will be very grateful.
What do you think
we ought to do?
Bring them all up here,
everybody that's
mixed up in the case.
Let's shake them all up
and see what we get.
Say, you're on.
We're going to take him tonight?
We're going to try.
Come on, let's get
something to eat. I'm thirsty.
Well, how are you
going to do it?
I haven't the faintest idea.
I'm just going to
look and listen
and pray that
somebody makes a slip...
just one slip.
You get them all?
They're coming.
Selma...
Take her upstairs.
Nora, what is it?
What does this mean?
Darling, don't worry.
Nick will fix everything.
I wish I were as sure as she is.
Figured out anything
about the setup here?
A little.
What's your plan?
Build up a case
against each of them.
Throw everything
we've got at them
and throw it hard enough
to bounce.
I'll make it bounce, all right.
Hey, wait a minute...
It's all right, let him in.
What is it, Nick?
Have they found the g*n?
Not yet.
Selma's upstairs.
Oh, she is?
No talking, now.
It's all right.
I'll go with him.
Oh, Selma...
David!
Now, none of that, none of that.
No, no, sirree.
Tom, what about
a few more chairs?
I'll keep my eye on them.
Sure, Mr. Charles.
Busybody.
Thank you, Nick.
This is outrageous!
Bringing me
to a place like this!
Great.
Oh, that's fine.
Well, they're all here.
Miss Forrest just came.
Good.
You didn't ask aunt Katherine?
Oh, I thought we'd better
return her hospitality, dear.
We owe her something
after last night.
I'm going to get
myself a box seat.
Now, don't get so fresh!
Take your hands off me!
All right, sister,
I just wanted to see
if you had a g*n.
That's a new name for it.
Just wait till you boys ask me
to do another benefit for you.
All right, inside.
Say, is that
Mrs. landis?
Yes. Would you
like to meet her?
No, thanks.
I've had enough of that family.
How are you, Lum?
I got restaurant to run.
No time for this.
If you're worried
about the place,
we'll have it closed up for you.
Dancer. We almost
ran into each other
other earlier this evening.
That so?
Too bad I missed you.
Oh, then it was you.
Thanks, I wasn't sure.
Where's Casper?
His phone's out of order.
Then why don't you
send a messenger?
What's the matter with you?
Shut up, you!
Cut out the chatter!
Well, Nicholas?
Ooh...
I might have known that
you were at the bottom of this.
Come right in, aunt Katherine.
How much more of this
nonsense have I got to endure?
We hope that
this will be the last.
Aunt Katherine, sit over here.
Yes, uh...
Oh, this must be
Dr. Kammer.
I've heard so much
about you from David.
Won't you come in and sit down?
Just find a chair.
I asked you all down here
because we found another
m*rder had been committed here.
He's a man I think you all know.
Pedro Domingues.
Pedro? k*lled?
Yeah. Don't you
read the papers?
I was in the jug.
Well, what do you
know about him?
Nothing. I only saw him
a couple of times
when I went to pay my rent.
What about you?
You're in and out of here.
You must've known him.
Sure, I known him.
So what?
And you?
I never been to
this house before.
You?
I have nothing to do with it.
I'm here to attend Mrs. landis.
You're here to answer questions.
Did you know him?
No.
You knew him,
Mrs. landis.
I knew him?
Yes, you remember him, Selma.
He used to be our
gardener at Ross.
David, you remember him.
Was he the man
with the long white mustache?
Yeah. What did
you know about him?
Well, nothing.
That was 6 years ago.
I haven't seen him since.
What about you?
I can't see
what possible connection
this could have with us!
You don't, eh?
Well, I'll tell you!
Pedro and Robert landis
were both shot
with the same g*n!
Now, there was some monkey
business going on down here
that we want to find out about.
You tell 'em,
Mr. Charles.
Yes, with pleasure.
It seems that one week ago...
Pedro rented this apartment
to someone calling himself
or herself Anderson.
Did you ever see this Anderson?
No.
Ever hear him
up here, above you?
No.
I thought not.
He was rather clever
and ingenious,
this Anderson...
Always wore gloves,
never left a fingerprint.
He intended,
with the aid of this ladder,
to crawl down into your place
some night
and Polish Robert off with this.
Then he was going
to climb back up here,
unscrew the ladder...
Throw it out that window
on the dump heap down below...
Then walk quietly out,
leaving you holding the bag
for Robert's m*rder.
Now, do you know anyone
who thinks enough of you
to do that?
Why... No.
You're dancer's
girl, aren't you?
I work for him.
That's not what he asked you.
Well...
We got an understanding.
Did dancer know
that you were going away
with Robert?
Why... Why...
go on, go on!
You told us before.
You promised you'd
keep that a secret!
I'll never trust a cop again!
Now listen,
if you made her dicker
with the cops, ok.
But that ladder stuff
is a lot of malarkey.
No one did come down
that ladder.
And landis wasn't
k*lled in her place.
The only reason he wasn't
k*lled in her place
was that Anderson was found out.
Pedro came in here yesterday
to lay a new rug.
He didn't like
the looks of things,
so he changed the lock
on the door.
When Anderson came in,
he found that he was locked out.
Then he heard Pedro
telephone me downstairs...
And he shot him.
So what?
So, who is Anderson?
I'll bite. Who?
Polly, Phil had a key
to your apartment, hadn't he?
Yeah.
And so had dancer.
Yeah.
What about Lum?
No, of course not.
Anybody else?
Nobody. Say, what do
you think I do?
Go around stuffing
them under doors?
He's trying to hang
this m*rder on us
to protect his family.
If the janitor didn't think
everything was on the up-and-up,
why don't he call the cops?
Why does he call you?
Because it's a family affair!
She knocked her husband off!
Everyone knows that!
I didn't, I didn't!
Oh, yes, you did.
Then you got that lug
to throw away your g*n.
It isn't true!
Now, that's a lie!
Now, Mrs. landis...
Mrs. landis...
You knew your husband
and Polly were friends,
didn't you?
No.
But you knew there was a woman.
Yes.
And you knew this Pedro...
Now, lieutenant...
suppose we take up
this check business...
wait a minute,
who's doing this, you or me?
Well, it certainly
never has been my party.
Maybe this guy is right.
How do I know?
Were you ever
in this room before?
No.
What about you?
Why, of course not!
What do you think...
I'll tell you what I think!
She had this room,
and you knew about it.
You knew she was
going to k*ll her husband,
and you had this
Dr. Kammer here
all ready for the nut alibi.
I attended Mrs. landis
just to make sure
that she did not do
anything desperate.
Mrs. landis' mind is...
Not balanced.
Now, that isn't true.
There's nothing
the matter with her,
it's you!
You're trying to
drive her crazy!
There's another mental case,
right there.
Break it up!
Wait a minute!
Nicky!
Nicky!
Hey, what's the idea?
This way, darling.
Cut it out, will you?
Darling, you have
the nicest relatives
and friends.
Mr. Charles! Mr. Charles,
don't walk off and
leave me with this bunch.
I wouldn't have said what I had
if I hadn't been
a little bit punchy.
This g*ng has got me nuts!
Aw, go on, Nicky.
It's just getting good.
Atta girl.
All right, darling.
Let me know when
you've had enough.
Now, take it easy.
Well, suppose we all
go about this thing quietly.
Dancer?
Uh...
Oh, yes, there you are.
You know, that check
of Robert's for 20,000
was a forgery.
So what's it to me?
It was traced
from another check.
I still say, so what's it to me?
Oh, just a minute, lieutenant...
We'll handle it differently.
Selma, did you
deposit that check
for $20,000
to Robert's account
a couple of days ago?
No.
Oh, yes you did, Selma!
I remember your telling me.
Did you, Selma?
Yes, I think perhaps I did.
I must have.
You think that Robert
forged her signature,
and you're trying to hush it up,
aren't you?
Aren't you?
No.
For years you've paid
to hush up his scandals.
Don't you see that
that's just what
they're counting on?
Selma... is that the
vanity case he sent you?
Yes.
And when you returned it,
you sent a note along with it.
Yes.
You took a signature
of that note,
traced it on this check,
and deposited it
to Robert's account.
Then you forged
Robert's signature
to the other checks
and had Polly keep him
busy until you cashed them.
And then I suppose
I knock him off
and stir up all this fuss
before I get the dough.
What kind of a stumblebum
does that make me out to be?
You're the kind of a stumblebum
that left your fingerprints
all over the room
when you k*lled Phil Byrnes.
Phil's dead?
Yes. Strangled.
Well, I didn't do it.
Then why did you
go to his place?
Because I thought
he'd gunked my game.
I figured he'd tried
to hold up landis
and had to k*ll him,
so I pushed him around a little
just to learn him manners.
Ah, phooey!
When I left him,
he had a split lip
and a couple of dents in him,
but he was just as much alive
as you are... If
that means anything.
Just a minute,
lieutenant. Polly,
who knew that Phil
was your husband?
What?
You were married, weren't you?
Yeah.
So Phil was your husband?
As if you didn't know.
I didn't know it until now.
I wish I had, baby.
Didn't you ever tell anyone
that you were married?
No.
Would Phil have told?
No! He knew if dancer heard,
I'd lose my job.
Did you and Phil
ever talk about it?
Yeah.
One night last week.
But nobody could've heard.
We were alone, down in my room.
Oh.
With these earphones,
Anderson could hear
everything that went on
down in your place.
Everything?
Everything.
Holy smoke!
He knew more about all of you
than you know yourselves.
Dancer, you went to Phil's room
right after you pulled
the switch at the Lai Chi,
didn't you?
Yes.
That was about 1:00.
What time was Phil k*lled?
About 4:00,
as near as we can figure.
At 4:30, Anderson threw
this note through my window.
He was beginning to make use
of the information he gathered
while he was up here.
Dancer, how do you
spell "married"?
Get Casper on the phone.
We're past that.
Polly, how do you spell
"married?"
M-a-r...
Um...
M-a-double r... Y-e-d
thank you.
You see, when it comes
to words like that,
an illiterate person...
what do you mean, illiterate?
My father and mother
were married right here
in the city hall!
Having a good time,
Mrs. Charles?
It couldn't be better.
This note is a poor
attempt at illiteracy.
The easy words
are spelled wrong,
and the tough ones
are spelled right.
Like to see it, Lum?
That was meant
just to get me down
to Phil's place...
To find his body...
And your fingerprints, dancer.
Somebody's framing you.
You say you don't know
this Pedro.
No.
Well, there's a picture
of him over here.
Perhaps this will
refresh your memory.
Were you in
on this check business?
I know nothing about it.
You lie!
You were up here
with those earphones on,
listening to everything.
You were sore because they
weren't cutting you in on it.
You followed landis that night
and tried to stick him up,
but something went wrong
and you had to k*ll him!
I do not k*ll Pedro.
I do not follow
Mr. landis.
Ask dancer.
I go with him to get air.
So you're the one
that's framing me, huh?
You weren't with me!
You can't use me for
an alibi! You're dirt!
Wait!
Just a minute, please.
All this time
I've been waiting for
someone to make a slip.
Someone has made it.
We've been wrong.
This wasn't a k*lling for money.
It was a m*rder of hatred...
And revenge.
Polly, what did Phil
go to the pen for?
Blackmail.
Blackmail.
Did you and Phil talk about
that, too, down below?
Yes.
Thank you.
David, when were you
supposed to give Robert
the money to go away?
This morning.
In cash?
Yes.
And when he decided to
go last night,
you had to give him bonds.
Yes, that's right, Nick.
But where did you
expect to get cash
on new year's day,
a bank holiday?
Well... Funny,
I forgot about that.
No, you didn't, David.
You never intended
to give Robert that money.
You didn't want him to go away.
You wanted to k*ll him.
You wanted to get even
with him because he took
Selma away from you.
Nick, please, I...
Nora, is he fooling?
Oh, no.
But you were fooling,
David, when you said
that you hadn't
seen Pedro in 6 years.
You said that he had
a long white mustache.
Well, he has a long
white mustache now...
But look at that picture.
There he is, 6 years ago...
And his mustache is
neither long nor white.
You didn't notice him
6 years ago
any more than I did.
You remember him as
you saw him last night,
when you shot him.
You k*lled him, and
then you k*lled Robert.
Phil saw you do that.
That's why he followed you.
That's why he was
on your fire escape.
He was going to blackmail you.
So you k*lled him, too.
And then you threw that
note into my window,
hoping to throw me
off your trail.
David! David, don't let him say
those terrible things.
Tell him it isn't true!
Tell him it isn't true!
Ask him why he threw
your g*n away, Selma.
He knew that it
hadn't been fired
and that you'd only
have to show it
to prove your innocence,
yet he threw it away.
Ask him why he did that.
David, say you didn't do it!
Wasn't it because you hated her
as much as you did Robert?
Wasn't it because
you wanted to get even
with her, too?
Wasn't it because you
wanted to see her hang
for Robert's m*rder?
Oh, David.
Tell her the truth, now, David.
You don't have
to pretend anymore.
All right, it's true,
every word of it.
I've hated her, hated them both
ever since she
threw me over for Robert.
I've been planning
and waiting and watching
for the time to come
when I could get even
with them for ruining my life!
I k*lled Robert, but
not the way I wanted to...
it was too quick, too easy!
I wanted to see him suffer
like he'd made me suffer!
I wanted to see you hang.
I wanted to see you
go gradually madder
and madder and madder
until the day finally came
when you were going to hang!
Well, I made a mess
out of everything, all right!
I don't want a single move
out of any one of you.
All right, Selma.
I may not see you hang...
But I'm going to see you die.
Don't be a fool, David.
Get out of the way, Nora.
Nora,
let me go. He will.
No jury will
hold you responsible.
Dr. Kammer was right.
I got 6 b*ll*ts in this g*n.
One for her, one for myself...
Yeah, one for myself...
And the rest are for anybody
who tries to stop me!
Get out of the way!
Give me that g*n!
Get him up!
Nicky!
I'll k*ll her!
Get him out!
I'll k*ll her!
Good heavens, I was right.
The man is crazy.
I can't believe it!
David!
Well, you certainly
can pick them.
Nice work, Abrams.
Nice work.
Oh, yeah?
Come on, dancer!
What for?
For about 10 years for forgery.
And not counting
the potshot you took
at Mr. Charles.
Come on, get outta here.
You, too, sister.
Listen, this wasn't my idea.
You were in with
him, weren't you?
Yeah, but...
well, you're going to be
in with him again. Come on!
Nicky, are you sure
you're all right?
I'm afraid so.
Nice work, Lum.
And you sent his brother up.
Sure, Mr. Charles sent him up.
Number one detective.
I don't like my brother.
I like his girl.
I'm your friend, you betcha.
Here's to
a very pleasant trip abroad.
London, Paris, Vienna,
and points east.
Ah, splendid, Dudley, splendid.
You're getting better
every trip.
The telegraph board
at the last station
said there's a lot of telegrams
for Mr. Nick Charles.
Who's Nick Charles?
I never heard of him.
That's what I said.
Fine!
Your room's ready, ma'am.
Thanks.
Well, good night, dear.
Good night, sleep well.
Don't worry, I shall.
Good night, Nick.
And thanks so much
for everything.
I want to kiss you.
May I?
Go right ahead.
It's a hard habit to get out of.
Good night, Selma.
Nora!
What's the matter, Nick?
It isn't true.
What isn't true?
Shh!
Pinch me.
Why?
Pinch me!
It is true.
What?
We're alone.
No family, no friends,
no reporters, no police,
no nothing. Good!
I suppose we ought to
decide where we're going.
Why, do you care?
No. But I haven't
any clothes.
Well, what's the difference?
Saves you the trouble
of packing.
And I don't need
anything in the world,
darling, but you...
And a toothbrush.
What's that, hmm?
Hmm. Looks like
a baby's sock.
Hmm.
And you call yourself
a detective.
Why, Mrs. Charles...
