- Government engineer.

- Oh, he's out then.

Say, here's a foreign name

"Kathi Lenesch"

Who's she?

Young lady who left job

as stewardess on boat...

to sing in cabaret

operated by Seor Manolo.

Left the boat, huh?

Dad, that sounds suspicious.

I think I'll go to the cabaret

and look that girl over tonight.

Parent has reserved task for self.

Well, isn't there anybody

I can investigate?

Who's Dr. Rudolph Grosser?

Also neighbor.

Viennese scientist.

- Has rooms over Halide's tobacco shop.

- Wait a minute.

Dr. Grosser. Rudolph.

Vienna bugs!

I've got it!

We studied Grosser

in our biology class

He's an expert

on tropical diseases and plagues

Don't you see?

Grosser's our man.

And he knows all about plagues.

Why, he could manufacture one...

and let loose horrible disease germs

into the American fleet.

Why, Pop, it-it's horrible!

It-It's awful!

Quite correct.

Suggest you waste no time

investigating doctor.

All right, Pop. Who, me?

Investigate him? Alone?

With all those bugs?

Oh, Pop!

- Dr. Grosser.

- Out of my way.

But you must listen to me. You have got

to move from here or stop what you're doing.

- It's driving me insane.

- Mind your business.

The rent I pay is big enough.

I do as I please.

- The dangerl

- Ach! You are stupid,

and I have no time for fools

Stop it, Grosser, or I'll make you.

You'll make me?

I do not advise you to try it.

Oh, Monsieur Compton.

You come to pay a visit to my shop?

I thought I'd like

some more of your mixture.

- Oh, yes. Come in, please.

- Thank you.

Were you pleased

with my last shipment, monsieur?

An excellent blend.

I thought I'd stock up

while I'm here.

I have a new mixture

I would like you to try, monsieur...

but, uh, it will be more expensive.

If I like it, I'll pay your price.

Send it along

to the Hotel San Pablo.

- Anytime this evening will do.

- Thank you.

Oh, so Dr Grosser lives here, huh?

- Yes, monsieur.

- Interesting fellow, what?

Well, cheerio.

Good night, monsieur.
