I'll put a task force on him.
You're not going to appoint a task force.
No. Hell with him.
I'm not going to appoint a task force.
You're not going to pay any attention
to these reports of the Shadow.
- Ignore them entirely.
- There is no Shadow.
There is no Shadow.
If there were, I'd be Eleanor Roosevelt.
Where was I?
You were about to tell me who she is.
That's Margo Lane.
Her father is a scientist working
for the War Department.
What the hell do you see in her?
Uncle Wainwright,
are you sure you're not dead?
Not by a long shot.
Send a bottle of Mouton Rothschild, 1928,
to that table.
Do yourself a favor. Stay away from her.
She's strange.
She hears voices. That's what they say.
Really?
Yes, I would like a glass of the Mouton...
Rothschild, 1928.
- Yes.
- From the gentleman.
Gentleman?
Lamont Cranston.
May I sit?
You know...
it's the strangest
thing, but I have this...
sudden craving for Peking duck.
That's so odd.
I was thinking the exact same thing.
Care to join me?
You speak Chinese.
Only Mandarin.
Aren't you full of surprises?
Thank you. I'm glad you like it.
- I had it made at Adrian's.
- Why did you just tell me that?
You just complimented me
on my dress just now.
Didn't you?
No, I didn't.
But I was thinking it.
Now that hasn't happened to me
in a long time.
Since I was a little girl with my cousin,
I could hear what he was thinking.
Just pick the thoughts right out
of his head before he said a word.
It was the strangest thing.
And I never was able...
Oh! No.
Not at all.
Thank you. I had a wonderful time.
I'm not sure I can recall an evening as...
stimulating.
Good night, Miss Lane.
Good night, Mr. Cranston.
I like her, boss.
She's different than your usual dames.
- More than even she knows.
- How's that?
She has abilities
she's completely unaware of.
No kidding?
You gonna see her again?
- No, it's much too dangerous.
- Dangerous for who?
For me, Moe.
For me.
Someone's coming.
- What is it?
- That's just it, sir. I don't know.
I'd have labeled it a mummy case
coming from Tibet like it did.
- Mummy cases come from Egypt.
- That's right. Exactly.
Besides, the thing is metal, which
made me think it was a sarcophagus.
No. Tibetan sarcophagi were of stone.
What happened to the truck men
who dropped it off?
Gone.
It's obviously an incorrect shipment.
Call our customs broker and...
My God!
This is beautiful!
This is solid silver.
Nelson, help us take the sides off.
- What does it say?
- It's Latin.
"Kha Khan dei potestas in terra..."
"The power of God on Earth..."
"The seal of the emperor of mankind."
Oh, my God!
