Transcript

My name's Regan. I work for Anthony J. Lyon, International Detective Bureau. They call me the Lion's Eye. Wednesday at 9 and CBS brings you Jeff Regan, investigators starring Frank Graham as Regan with Frank Nelson as Anthony J. Lyon.

So stand by for mystery and suspense and adventure in tonight's story of The Lady from Brazil. Her name was Irene Centino. The lady from Brazil, the lion called her. He figured it for an easy-trace job.

Something for missing persons only when we do them, the lion gets paid. You know, the program said it was simple. Except before we wound it up, there were a couple of added attractions. A doctor who didn't do any doctoring, a nurse with a built-in temperature, and a couple of blackouts that were meant to be permanent.

And guess what? In that last part I was supposed to be the star. Anyhow, it all began late last Monday. I was home. My boss Anthony J. Lyan knocked on my door. And that's when I made my first mistake.

I let him in. Regan, I'm glad I found you in. I'm just on my way home from the office. You could have kept on going. I'm out of Johnny Walker. Oh, now Regan, I didn't come by just for that.

You got anything else? No. All right, all right. As a matter of fact, I want your advice. Cut out starches and get some exercise. What else? What would you do if you traveled 10,000 miles just to see your sister and then couldn't find it?

I'd give up the search. You would? Why? I haven't got a sister. No, that's not what I'm talking about. You'd go to missing persons, wouldn't you? Sure you would. But if you knew your family in a foreign country would become greatly alarmed at this sort of notoriety, you'd look for your sister in another way.
