Johnny Dollar. Pat McCracken, Johnny. Universal adjustment. Sorry, Pat, but the answer is no. My bags and fishing tackle are all packed. Johnny, the plane ticket is just waiting for me out of Bradley Field Plains due to take off in a few minutes and believe me, I'm going to be on board.

Well, fine. So, don't try to stop me. Well, because what I called you about it is a little less than Johnny. It's no use, Pat. I'll see you when I get back and not until.

That's what you think. Well, now look, there's nothing so important that it can't wait a week or so. Wrong, Johnny. Now listen to me. No, no, I'm sorry, but it's no use. But don't you see?

All I see is that it's time for me to get out there to the airport. I'll drive you out. Oh, no, you won't. Johnny, will you listen to me? So long, Brad. Johnny. And so help me if he tries chasing me out to the airport.

CBS Radio brings you Bob Bailey in the exciting adventures of the man with the action-packed expense account, America's fabulous freelance insurance investigator. Yours truly? Johnny Dollar. Now act one of yours truly Johnny Dollar. Expense accounts are met to buy special investigator Johnny Dollar.

Yeah, to the Universal Adjustment Bureau, home of his Hartford, Connecticut. Following his account of expenses and courage during my investigation of the wholly unexpected matter. While I looked as though even my taxi out to Bradley Field was conspiring against me, it developed a flat tire along the way that almost made me miss the plane.

Oh, that cabin plane for item one on the expense account, $163 even, though I didn't realize it at the time it was gonna be paid for by Universal Adjustment Bureau. Anyhow, I got to the field in the nick of time, jumped aboard the ferry plane for New York.
