Nick Carter, master detective. Don, where'd you get that gun? Never mind, just don't make me use it. Don't be a fool, Don. I'm not. I'm going out of here and nobody's gonna be too sure.
Ha! Dang! Anybody else want to try any smart tricks before I leave? Now the case of the forgetful killer. Today's adventure starring Lon Park as Nick Carter, brought to you by new postwar old Dutch cleanser.
In the back booth of a dingy bar in the Slum District, a well-dressed young man takes a thick package of bank notes from his pocket and passes it across the cigarette scar table to the shifty-eyed little man who sits across from him.
That's every cent I have in the world, Whitey. $6,000. I said 10th. Where's the other four grand? I couldn't get anymore. You better get it. Remember that letter I told you about? Anything happens to me?
It'll be in the hands of the DA within 24 hours. That'll be the end of you. But why didn't you meet me tomorrow night and you... I can't come here again, Whitey, if anyone should say...
Okay. Okay. Not following at the office. Tell you where to bring it. But why do I get the other four grand tomorrow nights? All right. Go to the cops and you go to the electric chair for murder.
John, if there were any way I could raise the money for you, I would. You know that. Oh, I know Chris. I wouldn't have asked you except I've tried everything else. You're the only real friend I've got.
