of fellas brought you here. What's up?
They merely brought greetings from
old friend Deputy Chief Kilvaine.
Oh. I didn't find Paul's briefcase.
Gregory gave me the slip at Customs. But
if we could get ahold of that manuscript-
Please remember
- Have given trusting parent promise...
to apply mental ability to schoolbooks.
- Mr. Chan, I've got a message for you.
- Oh.
What is it?
What is it, Pop?
Here. Engage rooms at St. Francis Hotel.
And when Mrs. Essex
call, say will be delayed.
- But what's in the note?
- Ancient Chinese proverb, badly misquoted.
Should read:
"Do notchallenge supernatural...
unless armed with sword of truth."
[Vehicle Approaching]
- Wait for us.
- Nothin' doin'. I know this spook joint.
Full of dead people talkin' their heads off.
[Chuckles] Well, Charlie,
fancy meeting you here.
Had anticipated fancy. Surprised
you did not arrive first.
Oh, let me introduce Professor Bixby
of Berkeley. Great psychologist.
- Mr. Chan.
- Most happy to meet eminent professor of magic...
hiding under psychological whiskers.
- Quiet, Charlie.
- I told you we couldn't fool him.
with us, he'll never let us in.
Thrown me out a dozen times, but I figured
I could sneak in under the hair mattress.
Will make first test of Dr. Zodiac's
mystic powers on penetrating false whiskers.
Let's go.
Excuse, please. May consult with Dr. Zodiac?
Dr. Zodiac will be happy to receive the
celebrated detective, Charlie Chan...
and his friends.
Thank you so much.
It beats me, Charlie. That face of
yours can open more doors than a passkey.
Dr. Zodiac is native of San Francisco?
Dr. Zodiac is a native of the universe.
He knows all things about all people.
Follow me, please.
In this room, gentlemen.
- ~~[Eerie Background]
- Make yourselves comfortable, please.
I will announce you to Dr. Zodiac.
Boy, what a layout.
Say, I couldn't put on a better act myself.
He's got all the props: incense, music-
Advise caution. Even draperies may have ears.
What a lot of phony junk.
No. Very genuine and valuable antiques.
Table lamp of ancient Egypt
- Ramses dynasty.
This is Persian sacrificial knife.
Also very, very old.
[Gong Resounds]
[Man's Voice] Dr. Zodiac,
the Eye of Allamata.
Mr. Chan, I am honored.
Thank you. Privilege is mine.
It certainly is a privilege, Dr.
Zodiac. I'm Pete Lewis of the Chronicle.
How do you do, Mr. Lewis?
I have heard of your campaign
to expose the charlatans...
who prey on a too-susceptible public.
- And I'm Professor Bixby of Berkeley.
I'm profoundly interested
in your work, Doctor.
Thank you. Be seated, gentlemen.
