The Sword of Cebu

Get this and get it straight. Crime is a suckers road, knows who travel it, wind up in the gut of the prison of the grave. This time I started with a Romanian from left field.

Got misled in the Philippine jungles chased a beautiful blonde clear to Venice and wound up with a friend from Siam. All without ever leaving Los Angeles. It happened like this. From the pen of Raymond Tranfer, outstanding author of Crime Fiction Comes, his most famous character in The adventures of Philip Marlowe.

Oh, with Gerald Moore starred as Philip Marlowe, we bring you tonight's exciting story, The Sword of Seibu. You could tell me where is the office of Philip Marlowe, the detective maybe.

Yeah, sure, right around the corner here to your left. Oh, thank you very much. My friend, you know this, Mr. Marlowe. Well, yeah, yeah, I think you could say I know him. Tell me, he is a reliable man.

Well, that depends on what you want to rely on him for. Excuse me, will you, eh? Yeah, I want to unlock the door. You are Philip Marlow? Yeah, you're so right. Come on in, Mr. Rlow.

Never mind. Now listen to me. I will pay you twice what Henry Pound has offered to you. Also, I will add to that $1,000 for a bonus. Wait a minute, wait a minute. What is this? Henry Pound, the thousand...

Please, please, I have not the time for heckling. We make it $2,000, but you must work for me. Not for Henry Pound. You only pretend to work for him. Now, look, but in the first place I haven't heard from Henry Pound since I worked for him four years ago.
