Private Detective 62 Page #4

Where's the evidence on that

Philly case?

Here it is.

- No, I mean that bedroom picture.

- I get it.

Here's the one of the Watkins's divorce.

- Yeah, that's it.

- And the Norris Harbaum case.

Just put that on Love Nest

on Long Island.

- Is the boss in?

- No.

It's alright, I'll wait for him.

Listen, fashion plate. Didn't the boss tell you

he didn't want you hanging around here?

I'll keep quiet.

What's the matter, Amy?

You're covering up a lot of

expensive scenery.

This is strictly class joint now

and the boss don't want you around.

I need some dough!

My, my! Have you tried writing

to your congressman?

Oh, shut up.

Come on, now. Go places.

I haven't got any money.

I gotta have some money, that's all.

Oh, yeah? Well that's my trouble too.

Maybe we're related.

Say, you're the guy I'm looking for.

I got a job for you.

Sure, boss.

- Is Free in?

- Yes.

- Hello, Hank.

- Hello, Hogan.

- Mr. Bandor's waiting for you in your office.

- Okay.

Hello, Tony.

Hello, big shot, how are you?

Bigger and better than ever.

You look like you had something

on your mind.

Yeah, I have.

Well, keep your seat.

Let's have it.

- Men are so deceitful.

- Yes, aren't they?

Well...

Goodbye, Mr. Free,

and thank you so much.

Uh, who's next?

Mr. Mandelbaum, manager of

the Jefferson Hotel.

- Oh, yes...

- I am so excited, Mr. Free, so excited!

I can believe it.

Name is Reynolds, huh?

Yeah, that's right.

She's been coming to my place

for a long time now.

Lately she's started winning

every night.

It's three grand, or four grand,

or five grand even.

And I've tried cold-decking

or tilting the wheel but...

she cleans up anyway.

Well, now she's in to me for 45 grand.

Well, what's $45.000 to you?

No more than $22.500 is to you.

What do you mean?

Well, I mean partners split losses

as well as winnings, don't they?

Keep quiet, will you?

What's the matter, ain't you cutting Free

in on this sideline with me?

What he don't know won't hurt him.

Besides, he's got what he calls ethics.

Ethics?

In a racket like this?

Now don't worry, Mr. Mandelbaum,

we'll have the dope on her in no time.

I thank you very much

for your kind advice, sir.

- Good day.

- Good day.

Say, I got a special job for you.

That's exciting.

But it's too important just to give

to one of the boys.

Whose home do we bust up this time?

That Follies dame is here

for you again.

Mr. Free doesn't want to be disturbed

for a few minutes.

Oh, alright.

Say, listen to this.

There's a dame in this town that we

gotta get something on in a hurry..

She's got to get in trouble, get it?

But I mean first-class, A-number-one

trouble that'll be hard to get out of.
