 From Hollywood, it's time now for 20 dollar. Hello, Captain. Thanks for returning my call Yeah Yeah, listen captain, I need your help and you get a plane down here for me the one we bought has been wet And if I were you I'd come along with it A nice chance to add to your laurel captain by making a couple of a rest Yeah, one of my killer Oh Tonight and every week day night Bob Bailey in the transcribed adventures of the man with the action tactic sense account America's fabulous freelance insurance investigator yours truly Johnny From special investigator Johnny dollar location San Juan del Perro, Nicaragua, the Universal Adjustment Bureau Hartford, Connecticut Following is the final accounting of expenses and report on my investigation of the sea legs matter It's thanks account item 18 one dollar American phone call the captain Jose Ramirez for the federal marriage team a Call it the coast guard But a lot of things happened before I could make that call like the fast plane trip that we made the San Juan del Perro And the hope of finding the yacht the sea legs despite a big insurance plane based on its alleged large at sea Like the front that our plane was wrecked for it by one Douglas land there despite a big claim based on his alleged death at sea Like our discovery of the yacht carefully altered and repainted in an old shipyard My discovery of Raymond Gonzalez the member of the crew who was supposed to have gone down with it Oh, no, not until I revive these Gonzales Well, well I No, I guess you wouldn't so you found the sea legs You'll have to help you oh Then you're familiar with Oscar Patrick's lot in there for sale Nice job you did at disguising the sea legs, mr. Landry If I still haven't shown you where to find it my husband and I would have it up here then and you'd pose Oh, sure one of the oldest games in the business And in the meantime, you would have collected a hundred and fifty thousand dollars on a supposed loss In addition to a quarter million on your husband's necklace I'm afraid you asked for it when you fired your claim Four hundred thousand dollars. We've had to we were in trouble. Oh sure because you spent every nickel you could get your hands on Now Well, that ain't the way I heard it and I don't intend to believe it anymore than I believe a couple of things you told me on the plane down Nobody has to lie But remember how you solved as you told about the last radio contact with your husband when As you put it you could hear the rocks grinding away at the hall and the water pouring in over side as he desperately fought for his life Well, I heard it a little different from Oscar The radio signal was suddenly cut off. That's all no fancy sound effects nothing And what rocks by the way that smashed the sea waves I flew out to the Baldero islands and tried to find them They were as non-existent as the wretches that should have washed the shore in the Baldero current The maid or skipper or whatever you want to call him who was supposed to have been with your husband Been lost with a board room on Gonzalez Well, if you can see he wasn't quick enough when he attacked us here a minute ago, and I had to get a little rough with it If you're having a gun pointing at my back stop kidding, honey, you know more Well a lot of help you were that is nice I think I'd better have it Oscar because I see Connie land for me to hasty exit from the sea She did? Well, what do you know about that? You didn't see her leave? Well, it's so dark in this old shipyard that I was so worried about you, dear Mr. Duller, why do you do that? You should be. Plenty worried I needed only two things when I came down here, Oscar. Poop. Both of them. Oh, I don't think it's out of this really place, Mr. Duller. I didn't talk to somebody else. Oh, shut up and listen. I found them both now. Poop, the Douglas land, they never died in a wreck of a sea legs and poop that the sea legs Was never wrecked at all Except for a couple of details. The case is closed One of those details is you Oscar, I'm going to lay the cards right on the table And the money? I find the key Now, listen to me. Connie lands there slipped away during her little ruckus here But you could have stopped her as easily as you could have stopped this convalesceria from jumping with She said she had a gun. A bluff. She didn't But you did. You did. Oh, Mr. Duller, I was scared. I started that bulge on the left arm the minute you appeared in my hotel room that first morning Well, don't reach for it because I'm carrying one too. Mr. Duller, dear, I don't understand. I do now I've wondered from the beginning just why you insisted on sitting so close to me for a minute. I arrived here in Nicaragua I will tell you the truth The whole truth Even if it costs me a small slight percentage of the munitions, please, you're going to pay me for the unestimal assistance I've been giving you. Ask him. He just won't give up with you The money, if that's what it is, the money Like I get from all the Americans who come to Nicaragua Only from you it was not for sightseeing, diving, but for all the health Like, for instance, the money you've been getting from the landfills I cannot tell a lie, Mr. Duller. I did become a Mr. and Mrs. Landfills You know, for various and some disservices on Thursdays But by not including you to my radio center You see, if I hadn't known, they would take you there for the using of my radio My unlicensed radio, because the license cost too much I would never have been able to know about the act that didn't happen And so, still, they leave you to the Baldara Islands on all the clues that I... Well, you know what I mean What you're weaving me, not sure, is that you expected a lot more from them As their crazy plan to collect on the insurance policies worked out You're sure? Because no, no, Mr. Duller No, I was only trying to help you Keep Mr. Duller about all the things I've told you about You were careful not to tell me a single thing that I wouldn't have learned anyway Why did you insist right off the bat that we fly to Porto Guido, for instance? Apparently they'll help me for a small piton, of course But actually, it was to keep me out of the way while constant landfills Make contact with a husband here in San Juan del Pelo No doubt you worked it all out with her before you busted in on me that first morning Then when we did get to Porto Guido Trying to prevent me from spotting the currents would have taken any records from the islands That watched to the shore on the sandbar at Porto Guido If the sea lake had gone down That's not that, Bob. It isn't No, no, no, I told you About that strong cannon on the other end of it Sure, you did But only because you realized at that point that I couldn't help finding out about it anyway Mr. Duller, you're making a crook out of me Making a crook? I guess Well, I have this little item, aren't you? When we sent her to land our plane and Douglas Landford came at us with this car You know as well as I do that you could have avoided it Kept us from standing off our landing gear and crashing Oh, it was nicely done, too So that you wouldn't get badly hurt But still be up and around to collect some land here for us Oh, oh, oh, Mr. Duller, how can you even implicate such a horrible thing? You, my dear, my undying fellow Because of your little suggestion along the way that I unfastened my seatbelt and relaxed While you, I noticed, kept yours tight One thing after another And finally, of course, armed as you are, you're not only the Gonzalez that tapped me But you let Connie Landford escape as well And all for money Money That's all you've talked about How did you figure it to last for all this? For all my life in every country in the world, I've been Whatever I have done has been because I alone And I swear, Mr. Duller, I would have never let them kill you Because I do like Mr. Duller I almost, even with all the money I could get from them, I almost gave it up Yeah, for whatever you could get from me Yes, and because you're such a nice man I, I guess I'm not used to being around nice Mr. Duller Well, Mrs. Blanchie What about her? Don't be too hard on her It does all these things She had such a strong hold over her But as he treated her, sometimes I almost thought she wish she had gone down in the rest of the book What are you talking about? She's still on it Because by now she's so fine and she has to stick with me Don't you see? Oh yeah, I suppose that doesn't make sense All right, what else? I opened up my whole entire heart Well, Mr. Duller For once in my life, I'm telling the truth I thought maybe I could persuade you to pay me more than they could Then I could be on your side, on the good side Just for one But now I, well I guess I can only beg for your mercy One thing you haven't told me, what Douglas Lamper is You must know Well, do you? Yes Well? For maybe enough of a small piton to get out of this country Don't get over it Well, you have much of a choice this time You were saying maybe just a little bit, if I say I am leaving a hope, Mr. Duller I will tell you Mr. Lamper Mr. Lamper is right here Hope? And well armed officer ready to blow your brains out for what you just told us You know the insurance and that's the game God be careful, please Mr. Duller, he has a job Yeah, I see So have you, Oscar Yes Yes, I have Careful, Oscar And if it is the last thing I do, the man who got me into this is going No, no, you don't Stop, stop, stop So, it was after that I called Captain Ramirez to the federal merit team That's something I'll have that word And let him take charge Extradition proceeding for Connie or underway The U.S. courts will have to take over with her And Douglas, his body is being shipped to the state Oscar's body Well, I left some money with Captain Ramirez for a decent burial I spent the count total 841 dollars 95 cents Remarks? I wonder what kind of a deal Oscar Patrick's body, Mayor Postero, was able to make at the pearly gates Or wherever he was headed And you know something I kind of hope it was a pretty Well, at least I hope it wasn't too bad of you Yours truly, Johnny Dollars Next week, the promise of romance in the arms of a lovely girl And the thread of a knife in the back Join us, won't you?
