Transcript

Johnny Daller. I have the honor of being his first victim. I'm sick of dear old tri-state life in Casually.

No sacrifice can be too great. Even if it means loss of the thing most dear and precious to me in my life. Fighting adventures of the man with the action-packed expense account. America's fabulous freelance insurance investigator, yours truly...

Johnny Daller. The count submitted by Special Investigator Johnny Daller to the tri-state life and Casually Insurance Company in Los Angeles office. Following is an account of expenses incurred during my investigation of... the wayward killer cycles matter.

Expense account item 1, $170.40 claims there. It was after 7 p.m. hard for time on a railroad called Dean. And the next good flight I could make was shortly after door the next morning. To copy there about 9 a.m. to Pacific time.

I am two with six dollars for a cab to a railroad corpsman's office in Westwood. And these store robberies, Johnny, have all taken place in the motor beach. La Monter Beach, and up like weeds all over this town.

Now you mean it's part of Los Angeles. That's right. Just like Westwood here, in Brentwood, Hollywood, New Park, Stutti, the City Sherman Oaks. And you know, La Monter Beach is a real nice, new main shopping section market.

It's nice little furniture, best of jewelry, store, all those car dealers, drug stores, everything. Nice thing. And these robberies have all occurred while in that main stint. Now the robbery is not burglary. It's robbery.

Every one of them, Johnny. They've been seven in a row now. They lighten a regular path. Now wait a minute, Earl. Yeah, and I haven't been to the police. Your father haven't got the first face.
