Transcript

William Goggin stars as Barry Craig, confidential investigator. People who are in the market for murder should always pay full price. You can't get a cut rate on a killing. All you can get is a cut-through.

The National Broadcasting Company presents William Goggin, another Prince Bob drummer of Mystery and a Counselor. And America's number one protected Barry Craig, confidential investigator. Barry Craig speaking, in spring they say a young man's fancy, lightly turns the thoughts of love.

Are you going to try to impress anyone or will it be just to keep your color button who's showing? I don't wear color buttons. My shirts are all sold together to top. Must make it difficult to get into them. No.

All I do is shrink my head. Now look, I'd like a tie. Well, all right. By the way, is that your friend peeking in at the door? Friend. Hold on. No, I don't know him. I'm glad of that.

Why? It's hard to be sure at this distance, but he looks like the kind of man who gets his ties at a department store. No. Yes. With a cat. The clerk finally parted with a tie.

It didn't cost much more than a week's salary. I had it wrapped and left. I walked down Madison Avenue and admired the girls. There were always girls walking on Madison Avenue and they were always at the moment.
