have taken a house for
the summer in New York City."

491
00:32:13,297 --> 00:32:15,561
A cough drop queen?
That's funny.
492
00:32:15,632 --> 00:32:18,192
Whoever heard of a cough drop queen?
493
00:32:18,268 --> 00:32:20,327
- He looks so different.
- Do you think so?
494
00:32:20,404 --> 00:32:23,339
- What are you saving it for?
- Case I'm working on just now.
495
00:32:24,475 --> 00:32:26,067
Toast is burning.
496
00:32:31,415 --> 00:32:34,942
Fred, I know it's supposed
to be a secret...
497
00:32:35,018 --> 00:32:36,747
but why did you tear out
that clipping?
498
00:32:36,820 --> 00:32:39,448
What possible connection
can Henry Stevenson have to you?
499
00:32:39,523 --> 00:32:42,660
No connection to me. It's just
a hunch I'm working on right now.
500
00:32:42,793 --> 00:32:46,820
- What's it about?
- A special investigation I'm doing.
501
00:32:46,897 --> 00:32:48,865
Henry hasn't done anything, has he?
502
00:32:48,932 --> 00:32:51,958
I'm sorry, honey,
but that's one too many questions.
503
00:32:52,036 --> 00:32:54,163
Say, don't tell me
you're still stuck on the guy?
504
00:32:54,238 --> 00:32:55,830
Don't be silly.
505
00:33:01,879 --> 00:33:03,972
- Finished, Peter?
- Yes, Mom.
506
00:33:04,048 --> 00:33:06,141
Lord speaking.
Yes, Joe.
507
00:33:09,186 --> 00:33:11,518
Oh, you did?
508
00:33:11,588 --> 00:33:14,785
Oh, great.
Well, how about Stevenson?
509
00:33:16,026 --> 00:33:18,893
What? Oh, yeah?
510
00:33:18,962 --> 00:33:20,930
Well, now, that's pretty good news.
511
00:33:20,998 --> 00:33:24,729
He fell for it, eh?
Well, sure we'll go.
512
00:33:24,802 --> 00:33:28,465
Tell Harpootlian to line it up.
Yes, five thousand's enough.
513
00:33:28,539 --> 00:33:30,473
Have it in hundred-dollar bills,
be sure they're marked...
514
00:33:30,541 --> 00:33:33,339
and keep your mouth shut,
for Pete's sake.
515
00:33:33,410 --> 00:33:36,174
Okay. Thursday.
516
00:33:36,246 --> 00:33:39,545
About 6:30. South Ferry.
Right, Joe.
517
00:33:43,587 --> 00:33:46,021
<i>You'll probably think it wasn't</i>
<i>any of my business, Leona...</i>
518
00:33:46,090 --> 00:33:50,288
<i>and I suppose it wasn't, but anyway</i>
<i>at 6:30 that next Thursday...</i>
519
00:33:50,360 --> 00:33:52,385
<i>I went down to South Ferry.</i>
520
00:34:03,607 --> 00:34:05,666
<i>I don't know what I expected to see.</i>
521
00:34:05,743 --> 00:34:08,610
<i>As a matter of fact, there wasn't</i>
<i>much I could see at first.</i>
522
00:34:08,679 --> 00:34:12,513
<i>But obviously, the stage</i>
<i>was all set for something.</i>
523
00:34:12,583 --> 00:34:15,746
<i>Joe... He's Fred's closest friend</i>
<i>and is on his staff... was there.</i>
524
00:34:15,819 --> 00:34:17,753
<i>There was another man with him.</i>
525
00:34:17,821 --> 00:34:20,119
<i>I guess he was this</i>
<i>Harpootlian they've mentioned...</i>
526
00:34:20,190 --> 00:34:23,489
<i>the one who was to bring</i>
<i>the $5,000 in marked money.</i>
527
00:34:23,560 --> 00:34:26,324
Are you sure Fred knows where
we're supposed to meet him?
528
00:34:26,396 --> 00:34:27,863
Here he is.
529
00:34:29,633 --> 00:34:32,227
- Sorry. I'm a little bit late.
- Come on. Let's go.
530
00:34:36,807 --> 00:34:39,002
<i>It may all sound silly</i>
<i>to you now, Leona...</i>
531
00:34:39,076 --> 00:34:41,704
<i>my spying on them</i>
<i>and poking around like that...</i>
532
00:34:41,779 --> 00:34:44,270
<i>but something told me</i>
<i>I had to find out what was up.</i>
533
00:34:44,348 --> 00:34:46,942
<i>I don't know.</i>
<i>I still can't explain why...</i>
534
00:34:47,017 --> 00:34:49,008
<i>but I...</i>
535
00:34:49,086 --> 00:34:51,020
<i>I just followed them.</i>
536
00:35:08,872 --> 00:35:11,170
<i>It was one of the weirdest days</i>
<i>I've ever spent.</i>
537
00:35:14,311 --> 00:35:16,472
<i>Have you ever been</i>
<i>to Staten Island, Leona?</i>
538
00:35:21,185 --> 00:35:24,518
<i>Some parts of it, of course,</i>
<i>are thickly settled.</i>
539
00:35:24,588 --> 00:35:28,251
<i>But other parts seem to exist</i>
<i>in a kind of dream...</i>
540
00:35:28,325 --> 00:35:30,452
<i>like the lonely beach</i>
<i>we went to that day.</i>
541
00:35:30,527 --> 00:35:34,190
<i>It was quite a desolate place,</i>
<i>far out on the island.</i>
542
00:35:34,264 --> 00:35:37,700
<i>No one was in sight except...</i>
<i>yes, a young boy...</i>
543
00:35:37,768 --> 00:35:40,032
<i>who was digging for clams</i>
<i>by the water's edge.</i>
