Transcript

Personal notice, dangerous my stock and trade. If the job's too tough for you to handle, you've got a job for me, George Valentine. Right full to tail. You've all heard the expression, beware of Greeks bearing gifts.

In case it slipped your mind, a fellow by the name of Virgil said that some two thousand years ago. But as far as George Valentine is concerned, he could just as well set it today.

Wanna know why? So suppose you listen to our let George do an adventure entitled, Deal Me Out, and I'll Deal You In. Dear Mr. Valentine's, now is your chance to be reached. I am a stranger in town and you should take me.

Presenters, cost plus, straight commission of the goods. I will pay whatever you like, whatever. And why? Because five private detectives I am hiring with what? No satisfaction. Mr. Valentine's, a young friend of mine is having a most desperate situation.

And if you can give satisfactions, then I deal you in. The riches are yours. Knowing you like that sort of thing, I remain as ever yours, Ambrose Acropolis. No, you like that sort of thing?

For the young lady, yes. Money will mean something beautiful. For a man, it is different. To him, it is only like bread and butter or blood maybe. Okay, philosopher, but you still haven't told me what kind of trouble this friend of yours is in.

Now isn't that foolish? Would I need you if I knew? Yeah, I have to show. I am a town to visit. I am a happy man. I like other people to be happy. How should I know? He won't see me.
