Cry Danger Page #2

Synopsis: Rocky Mulloy, back in town after serving 5 years of a life sentence for armed robbery, hopes to clear his friend Danny Morgan who's still in prison for the same crime. It won't be easy. Even the witness who cleared Rocky thinks he's guilty; Danny's glamorous wife Nancy, living in a sleazy trailer court, seems lukewarm about getting Danny back; cynical cop Gus Cobb just wants to stir things up in hopes that the missing "hot" $100,000 will surface. Plenty of tough talk, night scenes, deceptive dames and double crosses in this typical film noir.

sailed across the sea

she ran away from me

to meet another man

it was a dirty trick

she got me all-

Hey, Godfrey,

Where can I find

the manager?

You're talkin' to him.

I want to rent

a trailer for 2.

When and for how long?

Now, and I don't know.

$10.00 a week.

It'll break our backs,

but I think we can swing it.

All right. Follow me.

Hey, Rocky.

I hope you were kiddin'

about us staying here.

Only a couple

of days.

Darlene will

keep you company.

I'd rather take her

out of all this

Than move in with her.

This is it.

Oh, swell.

House beautiful.

What are we,

the poor relations?

What about some of

those places back there?

This is all

I got left.

It's a wonder

it didn't fall down

Before we got here.

Well, the place

looks lived in.

Yeah, but by what?

Take it or leave it.

10 bucks a week.

You're

a smooth salesman,

Mr. Williams.

You talked us

into it.

Be careful

how you spend that.

It was a present

from the taxpayers.

Say, ain't you

Rocky Mulloy?

Well, I guess

you could say that.

Look, Mr. Mulloy,

I don't want any trouble

in this camp.

Then don't start any.

You see, I got

a nice little setup

With lots of transits-

We like it.

It's quaint.

There's no hot water.

Suppose you wanted

to shave?

We'll ring for you.

I think I'll go

take care of Darlene.

Another man might walk by.

Just the week,

Mr. Mulloy, huh?

I don't know.

You got a Nancy Morgan

living here?

Yeah. She lives

in trailer 8.

She in now?

She works

across town someplace.

What time does she

usually get home?

In about an hour.

No kidding, Mr. Mulloy,

I don't-

I got a bag in the car.

Go get it, will ya?

Let's get out

of this hot sun

Into a nice,

cool bar.

In a few minutes,

honey.

So it's honey

already.

I call everybody

honey.

Darlene, what do you do?

Well, I'm sort of

a part-Time model.

Oh.

I don't get it,

Rocky.

Why do you want

to fool around

With that

Nancy Morgan

When I've got

a lot of friends

More cute

and more fun?

I may call on you

for help later.

Mmm. I'd like

to see me

With 100,000 hidden

away someplace

And just gettin' out

of 5 years

In the clink. Wow.

You know, alongside

one of my friends,

That Nancy Morgan's

a deep freeze unit.

What about that saloon

we were gonna look up?

In a few minutes,

honey.

Of course, you being

her husband's friend

Helps a lot.

I guess

it'd be all right

If you took her out,

wouldn't you say?

I'd say you talk too much.

Hey, you gonna

sit there

And let him talk

to me like that?

Nope. Let's go

to some nice, quiet place

Where we can't

hear him.

He's got some nerve.

Look, you run along and wait

for me in the car, huh?

I'd still be willing
