Welcome to Hollywood. The Ironporces Radio and Television Service brings you the Hollywood Radio Theater, starring James Mason and Pamela Colino in Five Fingers. Ladies and gentlemen, your producer, Mr. Irving Cummings. Greetings from Hollywood ladies and gentlemen.
Tonight we bring you another of our 20 Grapes, Five Fingers, a thrilling drama of a clever spy who sold his services to the highest bidder, and recreating his original role of the infamous traitor in this 20th century fox picture will be James Mason.

I'm also a businessman. And you consider it sound business to pay 20,000 pounds to an unidentified amateur for a set of so-called secrets?
