Across the Pacific

Lady Esther presents the Screen Guild Players. The Screen Guild played tonight, across the Pacific. The starring players, is your Humphrey Bogard. This is Mary Esther. This is Sydney Green Street. Tonight, Lady Esther welcomes you to a suspenseful program of espionage and counter espionage.

Across the Pacific, starring Humphrey Bogard as Captain Rick Leiland, a United States Army Intelligence Officer. Mary Esther is Alberta Marlow. And Sydney Green Street, as Dr. Lauren, a spy in the employee of the Japanese government.

Are you sure that Dr. Lauren's is ahead of this Jeff's firing, General Rogers? Yes, Captain Leland. Why don't you just arrest him? Well, that wouldn't solve the problem, Captain. We must know what Dr. Lauren's is planning.

No, Captain. I'm afraid you're going to have to suffer the disgrace of a dishonorable discharge. If we're going to trap Dr. Lauren's. Very well, sir. Of course, you know what you're letting yourself in for.

No one but you and I will know that the evidence placed against you at the court martial will be faked. No one, sir? Well, Colonel Hart in New York and Smith, our operative in Panama, will know, but your fellow officers won't.

Well, they're not going to think very much of me, are they? Almost certainly not. But the more authentic we can make your disgrace appear, the better your chance of catching Lorenz. Do you want to withdraw from the operation?

I guess I can take it, sir. Start the court martial. Captain Leland, the court by secret written ballot find you guilty as charged and send you to be dismissed from the service of the Army of the United States. That was the situation Captain Rick Leiland faced.
