Good day, Mr. Clam.
I think the doc's also a little nuts.
This way.
How long do we have to wait, Pop?
Pop, where do storks find babies?
Mama, please. Be calm like me.
- There's the baby now.
- Let me see, Pop. Is it a boy?
Wrong flavor.
- Shh.
- Excuse please.
Can give approximate time
of grandchild arrival?
Well, your guess is as good as mine,
Mr. Chan.
Might be five minutes from now,
or it might be five hours.
Oh, uh, where is telephone?
- Down the hall to your right.
- Uh, thank you.
- Any report from Lieutenant Chan?
- No, sir.
he boarded her a half hour ago.
I see.
Honolulu Police, Homicide Bureau.
Oh, hello, Charlie.
Hold on.
Lieutenant Chan now, Inspector.
This is Rawlins, Charlie.
How's everything going?
Very slow.
Will be detained longer than expected.
- Well, have you got any clues yet?
- Am not sure.
But intuition and five dollars
say it will be boy.
Boy? What do you mean? Say, are you aboard
the freighter Susan B. Jennings?
No, sir.
Am on board maternity hospital.
What, again? Listen, Charlie.
We called you an hour ago.
The ship radioed a murder case
just as they rounded Kaena Point.
What? Wh-Why, they reported
you boarding them 30 minutes ago.
Would appear someone
impersonating humble self.
You get out to that ship as soon as you
can. Pick up a couple of men at the harbor.
Yes, sir.
Mama! Mama!
Now, Miss Hayes, Captain Johnson says that
you're the only witness to the actual murder.
- Is that true?
- Yes, as far as I know. At least, I was the closest one.
Please tell me all you know.
Two weeks ago, the attorney I work for
in Shanghai called me into his office...
and told me I was to sail the
following day on this boat for Honolulu.
He also gave me a package I was to deliver
to a certain person when I arrived here.
- What was in the package?
- $300,000.
Gosh!
I mean, uh,
that's a lot of money.
That's the amount all right. Miss Hayes had
me keep it in my safe until this afternoon.
What did you do with it then?
I waited on deck until this man
came aboard from a small boat.
- I thought you said you didn't know him.
- I didn't.
When he gave me the ring, I knew
he was the man to give the money to.
- Wedding ring?
- Yes. Here it is.
- I was told he would give it to me as a receipt.
- What happened then?
Just as I was about to give him the package, I
- I heard a shot.
He looked at me for a moment,
you know, kind of surprised-like.
And then he fell to the deck.
I-
I don't know what I did then.
I guess I fainted. And that's all I know.
My chief officer, Mr. Randolph,
