Transcript

Look out, Bill! I'm all right. Get back. You two get back. Do you hear me? Get back! Mr. and Mrs. North, starring Richard Denning and Barbara Britton. Listen as Pam and Jerry solve the mystery, collector's item.

It's almost midnight on New York's 57th Street. The street is dark except for the one light burning in the rear of the Jonas Art Gallery. The street is silent, deserted, except for the clicking of a woman's heels.

Now we hear her pounding on the door of the Jonas Gallery. Philip! Philip, open up! Philip, let me in, do you hear? Nice of you to bark. Come in, dear, come in, come in, you wake up the dead.

I suppose you have no idea what time it is. I suppose you forgot all about phoning me. I suppose you were so busy that mere idea of phoning your mind. All right, Margaret, I did forget.

Just too much trouble for you. Always too much trouble for you. All right, Margaret, all right! What were you doing? Paging again? Yes, you want to see it? No. And of course you can't possibly take two minutes away from painting a picture to phone me and tell me you'll be late.

Margaret, I get so little time to do any painting. Oh, Philip, we've been over this a thousand times. You're an art dealer now, not an artist. I could have been an artist. But a life of me, Philip, I don't know why you insist on trying to paint.

You're making a fine living as a dealer. All right, Margaret, forget it, please. You're doing well. Just look at that Rosa painting. What about that rose of painting? A $40,000 sale. Who was it that bought it?
