...the entire estate goes to the city|for the erection of a new zoo.

Anyone knowing of his whereabouts|is urgently requested...

...to contact Attorney Malcolm Kilgore,|executor of the estate."

Can you imagine using my 250 G's|to cage up a lot of moth-eaten animals?

Your 250 G's?

Dr. Lake,|I happen to be Egbert Norton.

No.

How do you like that for a handle?|"Egbert."

Never mind the cracks, Dixie.

Why, it's a veritable bonanza.

Oh. But you, you're as hot as a volcano.

That's the idea of the wooden overcoat:|A pushover.

Remember that sanitarium|near Dayton?

- I do.|- The place is still there...

...broken-down and deserted,|and you're going to open it up again.

That, my boy,|would be extremely hazardous.

Not for a few days, it won't.|We're gonna work fast.

You and Dixie will take|the 3:00 plane out.

- Frankie and me will go on the next one.|- Yeah?

- What about Darby?|- He's going on the train in the box.

Yeah. Come here.

Get the air conditioning.

You can open it from the inside. See?

- Will I get enough air, Doc?|- Why, of course.

- During normal breathing, a man's...|- Never mind the lecture.

- Will I be breathing when I get to Dayton?|- You have my guarantee.

You see, we got nothing|to worry about.

Yeah, we've got nothing|to worry about, eh?

Attention all police officers,|highway patrols, and county sheriffs.

Darby Mason is believed|trapped in the city.

Watch all airports and depots.

Repeating his description:|He is 6 feet tall...

...brown complexion,|and when last seen...

Cover this end of the platform, men.|Keep a sharp lookout.

Looks like a police convention.

They just come down|to see that we leave town.

Why, don't they trust us?

Gangway, fellas.

- Look, here's Charlie.|- Just a minute.

- We'll help. We're taking him to Dayton.|- Okay.

Give me a hand.

Here, hold that.

- Clumsy.|- It slipped. I couldn't help it.

That's all right. They can take it.

Thanks for the help, fellas.

- I wonder where Charlie's friend is.|- I wonder.

- We'd better go look for him.|- That's a good idea. We'll go and look...

- Hey. Come here.|- Oh, hello there.

- It's nearly time and we were worried.|- Yeah, about the other $30.

- Charlie's right over there.|- As snug as a bug in a box.

- Here's your 30.|- Thank you.

Get this. Check the coffin|through to Dayton.

When you get there, Mr. Draper of|the Deluxe Funeral Parlor will meet you.

Is that clear?

Yes, sir.

Okay, hold it.

Hurry it up, boys. We're late.

Wilcox?

- Step on it. We can't hold the train.|- We got tied up in traffic.

Show folks wait till the last minute.

- Suspense, colonel. We live by it.|- Well, start tying them on.
