Out of the Fog, out of the Night. And into his American adventures comes Bulldog Drummond.
Dan Morris
Sam.
Narrator
And now to tell us about our newest adventure, here is Bulldog Drummond.
Bulldog Drummond
I call this story the Case of the Double Death. So far as we knew at the time, it began one evening when Denny and I were dining in a restaurant. Well, Denny, have you finished?
Denny
Oh, but this cup of coffee, sir, I must say it doesn't taste very good. But I'll finish it from force of habit.
Bulldog Drummond
Suit yourself, Denny.
Denny
Waiter.
Waiter
Right with you, sir. Yes, sir. Will there be anything more?
Bulldog Drummond
The check, please, and quickly, if you don't mind. I'm catching a train right away.
Denny
I must say, Captain Drummond, you didn't eat heartily this evening. Not that I blame you, considering that you're going to witness an electrocution.
Bulldog Drummond
Well, Denny, they'll have to be the required number of witnesses. I tried to refuse, but the warden insisted.
Denny
After all, you helped the state prove that the man was guilty of murder.
Waiter
Your check, sir.
Detective Taylor
Thank you.
Bulldog Drummond
There you are.
Waiter
Thank you very much.
Bulldog Drummond
Come along now, Denny. We haven't too much time.
Denny
Oui, sir, but I wasn't invited, thank goodness.
Bulldog Drummond
Well, ride out on the train with me. Wait for me in the warden's office.
Denny
Yes, if you insist, sir. I say, now, where in the world are my bowler and my umbrella? I left him here on his hook.
Bulldog Drummond
Oh, Denny.
Denny
Waiter. Yes, sir?
Bulldog Drummond
We're missing a derby and an umbrella.
Denny
It's a silk umbrella. It can't be replaced, you know.
Waiter
That's too bad. Maybe somebody took him by mistake. They did, and I'll bring them back. Can you stop in tomorrow?
Denny
Yes, of course I can. But how can I go out of
Dan Morris
here without a hat?
Bulldog Drummond
Denny, that train won't wait for us, you know. Let's be on our way.
Denny
Well, if you don't mind, sir, I'll go home and get another hat. I'll catch the next train and meet you in the warden's office.
Bulldog Drummond
All right, Denny. But wearing a hat is just a habit, like drinking coffee. One of these days you may pay a horrible price for all your habits.
Denny
Please, sir. I'm sorry I'm so late.
Bulldog Drummond
Denny, I've been waiting three hours here in the warden's office. You might at least have telephoned me. Where were you?
Denny
Well, I. I really don't know, sir. That is, I've been asleep.
Bulldog Drummond
What?
Denny
Fell asleep on the Subway. Going home and slept to the end of the line.
Bulldog Drummond
Well, where's your hat?
Denny
Well, I never reached home. When I woke up and saw what time it was, I caught the last train out here. I just made it.
Bulldog Drummond
You must have slept for some time. And where did you get that scratch on your knuckles?
Denny
I can't say, sir.
Bulldog Drummond
That's probably the police. I called them trying to find you. Yes, this is Captain Drummond. Yes, thanks, Taylor. Denny's here now. What's that? Well, yes, certainly the last train's gone, but I have a car waiting outside.
Detective Taylor
Very well.
Bulldog Drummond
We'll be there as soon as we can.
Denny
Was it the police, sir?
Bulldog Drummond
Yes. Detective Taylor wants to see us at once. At our house?
Denny
At this hour of the morning?
Bulldog Drummond
Something has happened, Denny. Taylor wouldn't tell me what it was, but he said it's important. A matter of life and death.
Detective Taylor
Well, Drummond, about time you two got here. Come on in.
Bulldog Drummond
Thank you, Taylor, for the invitation to enter our own house. Come in, Denny.
Denny
Yes, sir.
Detective Taylor
Frisco.
Denny
Tony, I must say I resent this, you know.
Bulldog Drummond
We find Denny. Never mind.
Denny
Yes, sir.
Bulldog Drummond
You won't find anything, Tony. Neither Denny nor I are armed tonight. Taylor, do you mind telling us the reason for this reception?
Detective Taylor
It's a pleasure, Drummond. Tony, show Denny that Derby. Recognize it, Denny?
Denny
Why, that's my bowler. And you've got my umbrella too. My word, I didn't even report losing them. And here you police chaps have brought them back.
Detective Taylor
Yes, we found the umbrella in the back of the hall coat closet out there. Never mind where we found the hat. How about this knife? Did you ever see it before?
Denny
Why, not to my knowledge. But really I'm a most obliging sort if you tell me what you want to know.
Detective Taylor
Okay, Tony. Denny says he's obliging, so I guess he'll oblige us with his fingerprints.
Denny
Why, certainly. Which head?
Detective Taylor
The right. Just roll your fingers on that ink pad and then put them on the paper. No smudges. Now, you know how to make good clean prints?
Denny
Why, of course I do. There, how's that?
Detective Taylor
I'll tell you in a minute. Tony, give me the photo the prints boys took off the knife handle.
Bulldog Drummond
Thanks, Taylor. I don't know what you're trying to prove, but will you tell us if you think the prints are the same?
Detective Taylor
Yes, Drummond, I'll tell you. And I know they're identical.
Denny
Why, they can't be. I never saw that knife before. It's a weird looking thing anyway. Imagine a short German silver handle in an 8 inch steel blade.
Detective Taylor
Talk if you want to, Denny, but I'm warning you, you're under arrest.
Bulldog Drummond
You're arresting Denny? On what charge? The charge, Drummond, is murder.
Narrator
Our story continues in just a moment. And now back to Bulldog Drummond and the story he called the Case of the Double Death. Denny has been arrested on suspicion of murder due to a Derby hat, an umbrella and a strange knife whose handle bears his fingerprints in Drummond's house. Detective Taylor is ready to take Denny to police headquarters.
Detective Taylor
All right, Denny. Come along now and take it easy.
Bulldog Drummond
Now, just a moment, Taylor. If you don't mind, I'd like to know the details of this ridiculous situation.
Detective Taylor
Well, seeing it's you, Drummond, I'll tell you. A man was murdered on the street not far away. Knifed. Ms. Derby was found alongside of him.
Denny
But that's my hat.
Detective Taylor
Sure, Danny. We found that out. We woke up the dealer who sold it to you. He knew the initials inside. Said you're an old customer.
Denny
Well, I bought my hats there for years.
Detective Taylor
We also found a small bit of umbrella silk in the boy in the body's hand. Must have been torn off during a struggle. And I found this umbrella, minus the missing piece, in your coat closet.
Denny
But I lost that hat and umbrella this evening.
Detective Taylor
Drummond, can you tell us where Denny was between the hours of nine and midnight?
Bulldog Drummond
I'm very sorry, I can't.
Denny
Of course you can't, sir. I was alone in the subway during those hours. Sleeping.
Detective Taylor
That's pretty thin. Got any witnesses?
Denny
Well, none that I know of.
Bulldog Drummond
Look, Taylor, may I examine the body?
Detective Taylor
Sure you can, Tony. I'll take Drummond to see the body. You take Denny to see his cel.
Denny
Welcome, sir, to my humble quarters.
Bulldog Drummond
I'm trying to get you released on bail, Denny. Of course, it isn't customary in the case of a murder suspect, but I may be able to bring it off.
Denny
No, I certainly hope you can, sir.
Bulldog Drummond
The evidence against you isn't airtight. You were framed. All right. I'm beginning to understand how it was done. I'm sure that your fingerprints were on the knife handle because you used it last night in that restaurant.
Denny
But, sir, I certainly didn't use a knife with an 8 inch blade for eating.
Bulldog Drummond
No, Denny, but you remarked yourself that the murder knife had a short German silver handle. The handle of the knife you used for eating might have been switched to the murder blade.
Denny
You mean that someone stole my table knife as well as my hat and umbrella?
Bulldog Drummond
Exactly.
Denny
Well, I must say, sir, I feel better now. I was beginning to imagine myself in Pee Wee Lido's position.
Bulldog Drummond
Lido.
Denny
The murderer whose execution you witnessed last night.
Bulldog Drummond
Denny, that's a thought.
Denny
Rather a gruesome one to me, Sir.
Bulldog Drummond
You and I helped send Leto to the chair. This frame up might be revenge on the part of the Lido gang. Perhaps they're planning to frame me for murder too. Yes, Denny, we have plenty to do and the first thing is to get you out of here. Well, there's the restaurant where we dined last night.
Denny
I'd be just as happy if we found it burned to the ground. Sir.
Bulldog Drummond
Proprietor told me over the telephone that the waiter who serves us comes on. Served us last night. Came on duty at 6 o'.
Detective Taylor
Clock.
Bulldog Drummond
His name is Dan Morris.
Denny
Well, it's. Yes, it's quarter to six now. He should be alone any minute.
Bulldog Drummond
Yes, here he comes now. I recognize him.
Dan Morris
Hello there, Dan.
Detective Taylor
Morris.
Waiter
You talking to me?
Bulldog Drummond
Yes. You waited on us last night in this restaurant.
Waiter
Oh, yeah, yeah. I didn't recognize you gents with your hats on.
Denny
Yes, I don't wonder.
Bulldog Drummond
We want to talk to you about the missing hat and the umbrella.
Waiter
Sure. If they're returned, you'll get them.
Bulldog Drummond
They've been returned. We also want to ask you about a knife.
Waiter
Look, mister, I'm late now. Some other time.
Bulldog Drummond
If you'd rather talk to the police, we can arrange it.
Detective Taylor
Cops?
Waiter
No. Where do we go?
Bulldog Drummond
Where do you live?
Waiter
Not far away.
Bulldog Drummond
Very well. We'll go there. Get in our car. All right, Morris, keep on talking. You were paid $2,000 to take the knife Denny used in the restaurant and wrap it up in a napkin.
Waiter
Look, I. I never did anything like this before. But I needed the money.
Bulldog Drummond
Tell us or the police. What else did you do for the money?
Waiter
Well, I. I dropped a couple of pills in your friend's coffee. Not poison, just something to make him sleep.
Denny
Yes, I see. And what did you do with the knife?
Waiter
I put it inside your umbrella and pointed out your hat and umbrella to someone.
Bulldog Drummond
We're waiting. What was his name?
Waiter
I don't know. I was Denny.
Bulldog Drummond
Those shots came through the open window.
Denny
Yes, I know. Sir, there's a fire escape outside, but there's no sign of anyone here now.
Dan Morris
No one is running down.
Denny
Is he dead, sir?
Bulldog Drummond
Yes. Two bullets through his chest.38 caliber from the sound. Let's get out of the fire escape and go up.
Denny
We're only one story below the roof.
Dan Morris
Whoever fired those shots must have come this way.
Denny
But I'm sure he didn't go down, sir. I say, there's someone going through that door.
Bulldog Drummond
It leads down to the house, quick, Denny.
Denny
Yes, sir.
Bulldog Drummond
No, too late. Door's bolted on the inside. We can't break it down in time.
Denny
We can get back into the house through the waiter's room.
Bulldog Drummond
By the time we get downstairs, we won't find anyone. Turn on your flashlight, Denny.
Denny
Yes, sir.
Bulldog Drummond
Hold it close to the roof. Over here, Denny. You see this? Why, yes.
Denny
There are deep impressions in the roof. This coat of tar is new.
Bulldog Drummond
These impressions are a woman's heel prints. They were made very recently. There's no dust inside them. Woman?
Denny
Dear me, what a complication.
Bulldog Drummond
Let's get back down the fire escape.
Denny
Please, sir. I. I don't understand this at all. What could a woman have to do with this case?
Bulldog Drummond
You said she was a complication, Denny, but she might be a simplification. Well, here's the waiter's room. I look inside.
Denny
Oh, dear. The body, sir, it's disappear. It's too bad the waiter was killed before he told us some more facts. My word. Whoever these people are, they're certainly thorough.
Bulldog Drummond
And completely cold blooded. Imagine stabbing some innocent passerby to get a corpse to frame you.
Denny
And the business about that knife, sir,
Bulldog Drummond
the murder weapon, it was carefully selected so that the handle of the restaurant knife could be substituted for the original handle.
Denny
Why we are home. I. I wasn't noticing.
Bulldog Drummond
Well, perhaps in the quiet of our own place, we can come to some sort of conclusion about this case and about your predicament.
Denny
Yes, I certainly hope so, sir. If you believe the Lido gang is behind this, we should be able to get to them in some way.
Bulldog Drummond
I think we can be more specific than that, Denny. The prints of a woman's heels on that roof suggest Lido's widow. She was obviously his partner in the print, but she was never indicted.
Denny
I remember her. At Lido's trial. She impressed me as a package of evil. If I may say so, sir, this
Bulldog Drummond
might be her revenge. Yes, I have my key. Turn on the lights, please, Danny.
Denny
Oh, good heavens. Look, sir, in the living room as
Bulldog Drummond
I see the body of Dan Morris, the waiter, in the middle of our floor.
Denny
How the world can it be we just left him in his own room?
Bulldog Drummond
Well, we stopped for a bite to eat on our way here, and someone worked faster than we did. That's all. You see, Denny, they're trying to frame me now.
Denny
But what can they prove by moving the body here?
Bulldog Drummond
The restaurant owner knew that I was determined to meet the waiter. He might have told some member of the Lido gang. Apparently, they're following our movements well, sir, what do we do now? Well, the gang's next move will probably be a call to the police by someone posing as a neighbor of ours. He or she will say that shots and screams were heard in our house.
Denny
Then we're trapped. The police will be here in a short time and they'll find the body.
Bulldog Drummond
Not if we move quickly. Now, look, we'll carry the body out the back door. I'll stay with it while you get the car. I know of a much better place for it than here in our living room. All right, sir.
Denny
The body's quite safe in the back seat covered with a rug.
Bulldog Drummond
Get in, Denny. We'll drive on past the house. Now, I'll stop here for a moment.
Denny
My word, sir. The police didn't lose much time. The car's pulling up in front of our house.
Detective Taylor
This is the place on Tony. Take two men around in the back. We'll go in the front. Make it fast now.
Bulldog Drummond
Well, Denny, I think you and I should be on our way.
Denny
Yes, sir, but where are we going?
Bulldog Drummond
To the waiter's room. And the quicker we get there, the better.
Dan Morris
Now then, Denny, we'll just seat him
Denny
carefully in this overstuffed chair by the window. Yes, sir.
Bulldog Drummond
There.
Denny
How's that?
Bulldog Drummond
It's about right.
Denny
Oh, this is creepy. He actually looks alive.
Bulldog Drummond
Drag over that table with the telephone on it.
Denny
Yes, directly.
Bulldog Drummond
That's right.
Denny
Oh, dear. There's anything that really chills me, it's a dead man with his eyes open.
Bulldog Drummond
Wait, I'll just put his hands on the table like this. Now, Danny, turn on that floor lamp. It's far enough away. We don't want too much light.
Denny
Yes, sir.
Bulldog Drummond
Now, I hope I can imitate his voice successfully. Listen a moment and tell me how it sounds.
Denny
Yes, go ahead.
Dan Morris
This is Dan Morris, the waiter.
Denny
Well, that fix lit, sir.
Bulldog Drummond
All right.
Denny
Next in order is a telephone call.
Bulldog Drummond
I'm calling the bar that used to be Lido's headquarters. The scheme doesn't work, Jenny. We'll need a very good lawyer.
Denny
Well, sir, there's always David Miller.
Dan Morris
Hello. I want to speak of Mrs. Lido. Yeah, she'll talk to me all right. You tell her Dan Morris the waiter's calling.
Bulldog Drummond
If I'm wrong, she's right there.
Dan Morris
Hello? Yeah. You double crosser. You thought I was dead, didn't you? That's the way you left me. What was the idea of your boys dragging me off to some strange house?
Denny
Tell her plenty, sir.
Dan Morris
Yeah, yeah, that's where I came to.
Detective Taylor
I'm home.
Dan Morris
Now, listen, I Like money. And this is going to cost you 20 grand? That's right. 20,000 bucks. And if I don't get it, I'll go to the cops and tell them plenty.
Denny
Oh, that's splendid.
Dan Morris
Okay, we'll start with what you got. Three grand tonight. And listen, Mrs. Leto, no tricks. Get here in a hurry.
Denny
How did she sound, sir?
Bulldog Drummond
Frightened. Denny. She'll be here soon.
Denny
I hope she really swallowed your story.
Bulldog Drummond
I'm sure she did. Denny, go up to the roof and open that door that she bolted in our faces. Then we'll be ready for the payoff.
Denny
There's a car stopping in front of the house, sir, and a woman is getting out.
Bulldog Drummond
All right, one more phone call.
Denny
The other woman's coming into the house.
Bulldog Drummond
Hello, operator, Connect me with the police. Hurry, please. This is an emergency.
Denny
Two men got out of the car, but they're not coming inside.
Bulldog Drummond
Police headquarters. Someone's been murdered. 592 Hickory street, top floor. All right, Denny, climb out in the
Denny
fire escape directly, sir.
Bulldog Drummond
There's just one more thing to do. Take the telephone receiver off the hook. Leave it in front of our friend on the table. Wait.
Dan Morris
When?
Bulldog Drummond
I'll dial one number to get rid of the dial tone.
Denny
Come on out, sir. I'm quite comfortable on the fire escape.
Bulldog Drummond
Dan Morris looks alive in this dim light. You crouch down out of sight, Denny. I'm staying here behind this chair.
Denny
The door's opening.
Dan Morris
Come right in, Mrs. Veto. Keep your hands where I can see him. That's better. You can trust me, Dan Morris. Ah, once was enough. And see that phone? The receiver's off the hook. I just called the cops and told them to listen for gunshots. They can't hear us talk, but be careful of any noise. How do I know you can be trusted? I'm no double crosser. Now, look, Morris, you mustn't mind the boys. They got jittery and let you have it, that's all. You better get some new boys. Boys don't know how to shoot. My shoulder's burning up. But I'm alive and I'm in this for the money, you understand? Sure, sure. It won't happen again. You did all right for us, and now you can do all right for me. The first payment is three grand in cash. Just put it on the table there. Sure. Okay. Get away from that phone. Too late.
Detective Taylor
Smart boy.
Dan Morris
It's hung up. And this time the slugs go home.
Narrator
Back to the climax of our story in just a moment. And now back to Bulldog Drummond. When we left them, Denny was crouched on the fire escape outside a window. And Drummond was concealed behind a high backed chair. Mrs. Lido, widow of a gunman, has just fired two shots into the corpse in the chair and rushed from the room.
Bulldog Drummond
Denny, she's out the door.
Denny
Please, sir, a police car is just pulled up below answering your call.
Bulldog Drummond
All right, up to the roof, quick.
Denny
Do you think she started for the roof, sir?
Bulldog Drummond
Oh, no, she went downstairs. Over to the door, Danny.
Detective Taylor
Come on.
Denny
Here we are, sir. I'll open the door.
Detective Taylor
There she goes, man. That woman with the gun. Get after her.
Denny
The police saw her on the stairway. She's coming back upstairs now. Get back then. She's coming out here.
Bulldog Drummond
Hold up, Mr. Lito.
Dan Morris
This is the end of the line. Get out of my way.
Bulldog Drummond
Of course.
Dan Morris
My arm. Let go. Let go. You're breaking it.
Bulldog Drummond
I'll just hold your gun for you.
Detective Taylor
What goes on here?
Bulldog Drummond
We've got it, Taylor, the murderous.
Detective Taylor
What are you doing here, Drummond?
Bulldog Drummond
We've been trailing Mrs. Lido. I had an idea that she was the one who framed Denny for murder. Let's go downstairs.
Detective Taylor
Sure. Come along, lady.
Dan Morris
Take it easy, will you? I'm coming.
Detective Taylor
I'll make it snappy then. This the place, Drummond?
Bulldog Drummond
Yes, a room occupied by a waiter named Dan Morris.
Detective Taylor
Okay, lady, get inside. Well, you did a nice job on that guy, didn't you?
Bulldog Drummond
Oh, here's a gun, Taylor.
Detective Taylor
Thanks, Drummond.
Bulldog Drummond
Let's see.
Detective Taylor
Or exploded shells. And it looks like four holes in the corpse. You don't miss, do you, lady?
Dan Morris
I'm not talking.
Detective Taylor
Suit yourself. Tony, call the wagon for those two guys we picked up out in front. Run him down to headquarters. I'll bring the lady down to my car. Drummond, will you stay here with a body until I get back with the homicide crew?
Bulldog Drummond
Yes, of course, Taylor, Denny and I are glad to help you.
Detective Taylor
All right, lady, let's go. And don't try any stunts like falling downstairs.
Denny
Please, sir. I'm out on bail, you know. And here I am tangled up in another murder case.
Bulldog Drummond
Well, Danny, now that Mrs. Lido and two of her gunmen are in custody, we'll be able to prove to the police that you were the victim of a frame up.
Denny
Yes, sir, of course.
Bulldog Drummond
Denny, it's our secret that this man was already dead when Mrs. Leto killed him the second time.
Denny
Yes, naturally. I beg your pardon, sir, but how did four exploded shells get into Mrs. Lido's gun? She only fired two shots into the corpse.
Bulldog Drummond
I had to account for the two previous bullet holes in the body. I was sure they were.38 caliber. So when Mrs. Leto fired her two shots, I also fired two out the window from my own.38.
Denny
They were perfectly synchronized with hers. I only heard the two shots.
Bulldog Drummond
On my way to the roof, I removed the exploded shells from my gun. And when I took Mrs. Leto's gun from her, I found she'd reloaded her gun since the actual killing. So I substituted my two empty shells for the two live ones.
Denny
So there were four empty shells in her gun to correspond with the four bullets in the corpse. Please, sir, did you know what was going to happen?
Bulldog Drummond
Yes, Denny. I trapped her into killing the same man twice. One way to fight a frame up is with a counter. Frame up,
Detective Taylor
Sam.
