Man In The Vault Page #4

Synopsis: There's $200,000 in a Los Angeles safety-deposit box that mobster Willis Trent would like to have, so he gets two-timing, double-dealing Flo Randall to get the box number for him. He offers locksmith Tommy Dancer $5,000 to make the key but Tommy refuses. Trent threatens to harm Tommy's girl friend, Betty Turner, and Tommy gives in and goes to the bank. In a few nerve-racking minutes, Tommy makes the key and pockets the $200,000 for himself. Trent sends word that he has kidnapped Betty and the ransom is $200,000.

- Yes, sir.

- That will be all for now, Miss Miles.

- Yes, sir.

Good morning.

- I told you never to come here.

- I know.

But this visit was unavoidable.

- Now look, Trent. I meant what I said.

- Sit down!

There's no need to get upset, Farraday.

You're my lawyer. I need some advice.

I told you last night the deal's off.

Remember?

Is it?

You know you can't go through with it

while De Camp is in town.

Can't I?

- No, I won't let you.

- You won't let me?

The number of the box, the name

of the bank. That's all I want from you.

It's as simple as that.

If I don't get them from you...

Paul De Camp is going to find out

it isn't only his legal affairs you handle.

You wouldn't want that to happen,

now, would you?

Yes.

Mr. Farraday,

Mr. De Camp is in the office.

De Camp?

- Tell him that I'll...

- Tell him what, Farraday?

Come in, darling.

Paul.

Hello, Paul.

I didn't know you were back in town.

Didn't you?

Hello, Miss Brant.

Mr. Farraday.

Hello, Paul.

When did you get back?

Yesterday.

- You should've let me know, Paul...

- Look, Farraday...

I didn't come up here on a social call.

Look, Louie, I think

we better get out of here.

No, wait.

We might as well have this out

once and for all.

I don't think I understand.

Then I'll spell it out for you.

I don't want you around.

Paul, I don't think I like that.

You're going to like this even less.

You and your strongarm tactics

are out of date.

You're nothing but a cheap hoodlum.

That's all you ever will be.

You seem to forget we started together.

I'm far from an honest man...

but I worked my way up to the curb.

You've never been able

to get out of the gutter.

Stay away from me, Trent.

Now get out.

I don't know just what to do, mi chiquita

Your papa is married me, mi chiquita

Of course I want to marry you

just because I said I didn't work for you

I will give you all my love, mi chiquita

When we marry

you will have your casita

I will sing for you this song

And of course we'll have

our siesta all day long

You'll be Gonzales

just like your lover

You'll be Gonzales,

like my father and my mother

If we go bowling

the more the merry

Why keep on waiting

Let's forget and let's get married

Here's your key, Pedro.

My boss, he always loses his key.

So he always use my keys.

What's your rush?

They're all having a big playoff

over at the bowling alley.

And I have to go back

and set up the pins.

Playoffs in the afternoon?

The teams are make

out of a bunch of seores...

who cannot play at nights.

They shift work, from one to the other...

in a cemetery.

You mean the graveyard shift.

I think I almost forgot.

Tonight, I gonna make a lot of money.
