Transcript

Get this and get it straight. Crime is a sucker's road and those who travel it wind up in the gut of the prison of the grave. It could have been perfect. Snowbound in the mountain lodge with a girl who was falling in love.

But also present were a widow sick with rage, a bitter old woman and a jealous man. All with reason they hate me more than anyone else in the world. It happened like this. From the pen of Raymond Tranfer, outstanding author of Crime Fiction, My infection comes his most famous character in The Adventures of Philip Marlow.

It's about to get it. Just over any time. So why don't you blow that thing? What's a tariff? Oh, call it three bucks even. You know I've been running this mobile gas station here for 20 years.
