Why don't you try the oysters?

Now, wait a minute!

Let me tell you something. This is serious.

There was a ball given last night...

Yeah, it's still on the menu.

What's on the menu?

Codfish ball.

Listen, this is serious.

This ball was given for ladies and gentlemen.

We weren't there then.

No...

The jewels were stolen from Norma Shearer.

Does she work here?

No, she don't. But I'm gonna get those jewels.

You know anything about it.

Wait a minute.

If there was a ball given last night

and any jewels were stolen...

had we been there, he would have gotten them.

Now why make a crack like that?

I had nothing...

Hey, did you ever steal anything?

Wait a minute. Better let me handle this.

Wait a minute.

Now?

Now.

What do you mean by doing that?

He told me to do it.

He did?

You tell everything you know, don't you?

Don't give me that!

Wait a minute, wait a minute!

Did you ever do this before?

Yes. In Rio Rita we did...

You did, well then...

Pardon me, Mr. Dix.

I'm a detective.

Where can I find Lowell Sherman?

A detective?

Yes.

Well, you ought to know where to find him.

By the way, how did you know I was Richard Dix?

I guessed it.

Well, you guess where Lowell is, will you?

Embrace him.

You don't thank him and them kiss him.

But naturally I thank him and then kiss him.

There are different kinds of embraces.

Tommy, did you get that man

who plays the detective?

Yes, sir. Right here.

Oh. Who are you?

I'm a detective.

No, you're not.

You won't do.

You don't look a bit like a detective.

Come on, Phil, will ya?

Get that.

Oh.

No, no, no,

Hello!

No!

Excuse me, please.

No.

Oh, Gallager... yes?

No.

Hello?

No,

Yes.

No.

Maybe.

Have you birds got your copy ready?

Yes!

No!

Maybe.

Well, have you got it or haven't you got it?

Oh, it's you, Mr. Cooper.

Put em down. Hang em up!

Put em down, hang em up.

What do you think we're running here? An almanac?

You see, I couldn't' find a pencil in town...

I need a new typewriter ribbon...

Oh, Wynne!

Here's the story of the film ball last night.

Okay. You were there?

Sure! I had a great time.

I left before it started.

Hey, chief, fresh story.

Norma Shearer's jewels were stolen

last night at the movie ball.

No one arrested but everyone suspected.

Now isn't that unusual.

Just like the weather out here.

Say, you know? I wish Philo Vance was here.

Who?

Philo Vance.

Say, Bud!

Why don't you get in touch

with that French detective friend of yours?

That er, Maurice Chandelier.

Great idea.

Hollywood 2400, please.

Yes?

Hello, Buddy!

Wasn't that a grand party last night?
