The Silver Scarab (better sound, commercials cut)

Your twice as sure with two great names. Frigidaire and General Motors. Frigidaire presents Herbert Marshall as the man called X. Whatever there is mystery, intrigue, romance, in all the strange and dangerous places of the world, there you will find a man called X.

Frigidaire presents Herbert Marshall as Ken Thurston, The man called X. Good evening, Mr. Thurston. I have a little message for you.

If you don't mind, I'll give it to you right now. Yes? Have you got Cairo? Not yet, Chief. We're still trying, but the wires to Cairo are... I don't care how busy they are. There must be some word by now about Thurston's killers.

Get after them again. Tell them I want action. Fast. Yes, sir. I'll try immediately. Now, what do you want, Pagon? I wanted to tell you something very important about the late departed Mr. Thurston. Something I'm sure you never realized, Mr. Chief. I happen to be his only heir.

Is what? So many times he told me, Pagan, when I go I wish to leave everything to you. Oh! Unfortunately I don't know where all his money is, but if you would help me to locate it for a reason of a committee...

Pagan, you dirty, chiseling, black-hearted... Yes, I know, I know, but if you would help me collect his estate, I could give you a percentage. It's a small one, of course, but... Get out of my office!

Get out before I... Yes? That's a call from Cairo, sir. It just came through. I'll take it. Hello. Hello! You sound as peptic, Chief. And what if I do? What business is it of... Ken.

Ken first? I, Chief. But what? It can't be you. The reports of your death. Ken, what happened there in Cairo? A local lab is working with me. It was in my room alone when a female visitor came calling on me. Her charm was proof fatal.
