The Money Machine Murder Case

You see how simple it is Mrs. Willoughby? You make your own money, just exactly the way the government does.

You put this blank piece of paper in the machine, you turn the crank, and out comes a brand new $1 bill. It certainly does. Yeah. Now those $1 bills I made up yesterday with this machine, you took them to the bank.

Yes, and they said it was real money. Oh, you see what I mean? And you saw me make them. I made them right in front of your eyes with this machine. You sure did. How?

You give me ten thousand bucks and it's yours. You can make as much money as you want, whenever you want. Ten thousand dollars. That's right. Tell me, Mr. Crane, why are you so anxious to sell this machine?

All you would have to do is turn the crank and not what come real bills. Lady, I've got a lot of machines. I want to sell them and quit. That's simple, isn't it? You got plenty of dough, but there's enough larceny in you.

Why don't you say? Don't let it bother you, lady. There's larceny in everybody. But it's in you, is that you asked me to come back today. Mr. Crane, I'll give you $10,000 for your machine.

Good. Providing, I'm sure that the paper you insert in the machine is actually the one that comes out as a dollar bill. Oh. That ought to be simple? Yeah. I'll put my initials on the blank paper.

If my initials appear on the bill when it comes out, I'll buy the machine. No, wait, I've got a tenonink right here. Now, hand me one of your blank pieces of paper. All right. There you are.
