Eyes in the Night

I got a hunch something's gonna happen

I ain't gonna like.

You won't mind this.

That's right.

Ohh!

Careful, max! You know I'm delicate!

There's a kind of monotony about this.

You're not hurt, are you?

No. I'm getting so I enjoy it.

What you just saw is my triple macnasty.

It should be a must for

all of us detectives.

Marty is a sucker for it.

Oh, I got another little item

That I think you coppers should know.

Come on, Herman.

You'll pardon me.

Oh, it won't hurt you.

Peter, come on, let's try it.

Let me have your gun.

What's the matter with you, Friday?

It's all right. He's

a minion of the law.

Now, come on.

Here, put the gun in my back.

I'm walking along.

I hope my insurance is paid up.

You see? It's all in the timing.

Hey, will you get this malamute off me?!

Relaxing, ain't it?

Let him up, Friday.

Excuse me, boys. Come along, Friday.

Can't see anybody today, Alistair.

Friday, Alistair will answer

this time, if you don't mind.

Can't you get it through your head -

Dogs don't answer doorbells?

Yes, ma'am?

I'm Mrs. Lawry. Is captain McClain in?

I'm sorry, ma'am. Captain

McClain is not receiving today.

He's consulting.

Oh, but I'm an old friend.

I'm sure he'd want to see me.

I'll just wait.

I know, ma'am, but, uh...

he said, "don't let nobody in. "

And if I don't let them in,

he says, "do let them in. "

Dog, where is you going?

Innocent as a lamb, ain't you?

Well, if you're entertaining any ideas

About getting into my department,

You're treading on the edge of disaster.

What are you looking at?

Very cunning.

Now, what is you looking at?

So that's it!

Why, you double-Crossing canine!

I'll disconnect you!

Boss, I'm a man with patience,

But that dog -

Well, never mind that.

Who was at the door?

That blamed dog has

even got me forgetting

What I'm supposed to be doing.

All right, all right.

Who was at the door?

There's a lady, sir. A lady?

All right, give me the blue

coat and the polka-Dot tie.

And your tan shoes?

And the tan shoes.

Yes, sir.

At it again, right under my nose!

You really should tell new servants

About old friends, captain McClain.

Norma!

Hello, Friday.

I even brought you some roses.

Ah, they're lovely.

You know, too few ladies

bring me roses these days.

Oh, Mac, old friend,

it's good to see you.

It's good to see you, too, Norma.

You're just as beautiful as ever.

The only time I mind not having

eyes is when you're around.

Ohh.

Come, let's sit down.

Can't keep your sniffer

out of the roses, can you?

I had forgotten that

Friday was allergic to them.

So, you've given up the

theater for good, huh?

Mm-Hmm.

And do you think Lawry is worth it?

Being married to Stephen

Is the most exciting

career I ever had, Mac.

He's a great man.

Mm-Hmm. A great man, indeed.

He's one of the best

scientific minds we have today.

And heaven knows, we need him.

I'm glad you came to me, Norma.

I think your father would

have expected me to help you.

You do need help, don't you?

Yes, but how did you know?

Oh, the tone of your voice,

The way you tapped your cigarette.

Serious trouble?

Pretty serious.

Need a detective?

What I really need is someone

to commit a murder for me.

Oh, I can do that for

you anytime you want.

Who is the victim?

Do you remember Paul Gerente?

Yes.

The dreariest leading man you ever had,

And when you told me that

you were engaged to him,

I wanted to take you over my knee.

Well, he's back. He's

back in my life again.

He's a leading man in that

summer theater near our home.

And he's making love to

my stepdaughter, Barbara.
