Why didn't you tell the old man that oh Annie? How could I? Dad wants to believe that this thing is on the level. He's happy tonight for the first time since his wife died But Annie after I finish whatever assignment Burke has for me upstairs I'm gonna pay an unsocial call on Swami Feta Narsie Oh, hey Burke, what do you mean you're sending me out of town tonight? That's what I said Casey I just had our Detroit correspondent on the phone He tells me a honey of a murder broke out there. He may be gone two weeks. Maybe a month I'm not going Casey's on this job alone Williams. You stay here. I'll take this to the cashier and get your expense money Okay, your train leaves in 45 minutes, Burke. I ought to see a guy tonight here. You can't get going Casey I want pictures in Detroit. Come on Okay Dad Palin's been looking after himself for over 70 years. I guess he can do it without my help a few weeks longer Oh, thank you. What's up? Look, uh something happened that we think you ought to know about I want I'm at police headquarters with Captain Logan a few hours ago your friend dad Palin was found dead Yes, Casey and Captain Logan thinks that Swami Feta Narsie was responsible for his death Logan let's have a dope on it Oh feeling didn't open this door this morning Casey a cop on the beat got worried broke in and Found your friend dead in the back room. He just died in his sleep I talked to miss Williams after she phoned you Casey and we beat the thing together Besides the old man's body was that spirit photograph of him and his wife In his pocket. We found a bank book that it apparently represented his life savings Balance was only $21 but until four days after miss William says he called on you with the express The balance had been $6,021 the fake Swami got the $6,000 The shock of losing his life savings and learning that the Swami was a fake was too much for Swami gave him the usual routine Yeah, I could hear his of his type are all alike After the victim is convinced he's in contact with the dead He gets a spook message telling him to hand over some money usually for an investment the ghost recommends Though it was passed over in cash and we cops can't do a thing Logan That's Swami killed that old man just as surely as though he'd stuck a gun at his head and pulled the trigger I know it, but he's not a murderer in the eyes of the law. We can't even prove him a thief. Are you question him? I truly denied everything. Well Logan I'll talk to Swami fader. Narsie. It won't get you anywhere Well, I'll see you later. No, what are you gonna do? Well from what you say, there's only one thing I can do Beat that guy to a pulp You Fader Narsie no sir. Oh, just a servant. Yes. I want to see your boss.

Hasn't your crystal ball told you as the police have made some baseless insinuations that cannot be proven I imagine you were about to do something equally foolish. Yeah I'm gonna knock that grin off your face and your teeth along with it. Yes Take your hands off of me. Let me go with it. Lookie my devoted servant is a Seneca They are noted for the skill in fighting lookie Mr. Casey that it will be very unwise for him to trouble us again.

Oh, yeah, it'll be a complete bus You think anybody gets into Narsie's joint unless he knows who they are and all about him any See it's part of his racket to have the lowdown on people who come to him Oh, you mean he looked me up and find out I'm Anne Williams who works for the Morning Express Are you sure what say wait a minute I've got an idea What Burke was telling me some of his recent family history a few days before I went to Detroit He can give us the gimmick we need behind this thing Burke? You're sitting at it? Yeah Boy and will he do it when he sees it as the build-up for an exclusive feature story Annie come on we're talking to Burke right now Casey it's a natural Williams you'll check into an uptown hotel here tomorrow night as Marilyn Phillips of Portland, Oregon Which is the real name and home address of your wife's first cousin right? Yes as Casey remembered my telling him Marilyn lost her mother several months ago Where's Miss Phillips now though Bert? Traveling in Mexico so that'll be all right She's about your size and coloring Williams I'll have my wife tell you enough about Marilyn Phillips tonight So that you can borrow her identity without any chance of a slip up When this fader Nazi checks her he'll think you're the real McCoy Well how will I get to Nazi? I can't just walk up to his front door You'll get to him the same way Dad Phelan did You go to Jameson's our cult bookshop and become a steady customer The old day who runs the place is probably a shell for Nazi Oh I get it, I pose as a grief-stricken daughter with money And let her and him do the rest That's the play After you check into the hotel as Marilyn Phillips You're not to come near this office, near your apartment Or with anyone you know till this job's finished Wait a minute now Burke you mean I mean especially that she can't go anywhere near you Casey I'd give the whole show away I didn't think of that I'll see if you receive plenty of expense money Williams You'll report to me by phone That's all She can talk to me by phone too What does she want to talk to you for? Yes, why should I? Well, I thought I might be able to help or something Burke, we'll attend to everything Sure Casey, I'll attend to everything Oh, that's just swell Did it ask Burke's for you? It's me Burke I'm getting acquainted with Mrs. Jameson But she hasn't suggested I see our man yet You've only been on the job ten days This'll take time, stick with it Casey, what on earth has happened to Miss Williams? It's almost three weeks since I've seen her in here Miss Williams is away, Ethelbert And who cares? You don't have to bite my head off Over a month now Miss Phillips I feel that I know you well enough to Offer a suggestion that may soften your great sorrow The only thing that can help me Mrs. Jameson is If I could see my mother again or hear a voice Well, perhaps you can I know a remarkable man Miss Phillips A man of almost miraculous powers His name is Bader Knoss Sit down Miss Phillips Thank you I see things in the crystal ball I see a lady there whom you loved very dearly My mother? Yes, her name was Alice The woman who sent me here must have told you that Be not hasty in your judgment Miss Phillips You were born October 4th, 1922 Your home was 47 Vista Road, Portland, Oregon Your middle name is Celestine Your mother's maiden name was McClendon She's very close to you now Miss Phillips Very close Can you make me see her, Swami? Or hear her voice? Later perhaps Come to me on Thursday and next In the meantime I will pray that the one you love Beyond the veil will speak to you And give you comfort Go now I'm very weary Yes, Swami How much do I owe you? Oh, me? Oh, my dear child I make no charge for my services ever My mission in life is to serve mankind Oh, he merely gave you the old build-up today Yes, Burke, of course Someone in Portland said in the information about Marilyn Phillips and her mother A virgin is where I could have contacts all over Call me again after you see him Thursday Goodbye Wait a minute, Burke In very bad humor Goodbye The psychic force is strong in me tonight I feel the spirit presence of one Who has passed beyond You, uh, thank Swami that my mother I cannot tell I am sinking into trance Hold my hands tightly Look closely at the crystal And soon you may hear the voice Of the dead It's so dark in here Trance I'm sinking into Oh, Swami That knocking Something's knocking on the table, Swami And it isn't you Oh, that music Where's it coming from? I'm afraid, Swami Have no fear, my daughter That voice It is your mother's, darling Mother? I'm with you, Marilyn Here This good man has helped me make the journey From the land beyond To bring you comfort I can't see you, mother I have more to tell you, my dear Now the force is growing weak Trust this good man Trust Veda Nasi And I will come to you again through him Come again And I will have more to say Oh Swami Nasi Swami Nasi What? Was it a success, Miss Phillips? You don't know what happened? I was in trance I never know Her mother talked to me She said that she had more to tell me We shall assist her then Come to me next Wednesday Yes, Swami? I am sinking into trance Sinking into... Those knocks And then That music again Mother? My darling Come Come closer and let me really see you That is beyond my power, dear I have put little time I'm so worried about you, my child Worried about me?

Yes, Burke And when Nasi snapped out of his trance I told him I'd bring him ten thousand dollars That mother left me at nine o'clock tomorrow morning I'll send you the money by messenger Call me when you get it And we'll check on the final plan Okay, Burke Goodbye Well, Casey Tomorrow night will be the fail Yeah? Cops will be posted around the house Before Williams goes in When she comes out The cops will take it as a signal Close in Get the swami with those marked bills In his possession And that's that There's also going to be a witness When that money is passed Who? Me The last guy in the world Who could get into that I've been casing that joint, Burke There's a big window in Nasi's chamber With a strong trellis leading up to it The window is painted black inside But if Anne can get it open Just a few inches You could see and hear what's going on And I can take a picture Of Anne giving that rat the dough I'll use an infrared bulb That shows no glare It'll make us well shot For the paper And for evidence in court Will you tell Anne to get that window open? I certainly will Leave it to Williams She'll get it open somehow Brought the money, swami Oh, yes, yes, the money You'll return it to me And much more besides, as mother said Miss Phillips, through spirit guidance I have made many fortunes For other people I'm not interested in money myself Oh, there's $10,000 here All I have Well, I will accept And invest it as a sacred trust Here Thank you What was that? I didn't hear anything We'll see This window So, Mr. Case Hello, Nasi Step of that trellis And into this room with your camera As you see, I have a gun As I say Now close the window Okay I am always alert for frame-ups Yes, the guy in your racket has to be You will give me the film you just exposed What good will it do you? I saw you take the dough Your testimony in that of Miss Phillips Will be utterly valueless If the money cannot be found in my procession It's quite obvious that I have been giving Mark bills But they easily destroy it Casey, if he destroys the paper's $10,000 I'll have to pay it back I'll be in debt the rest of my life He won't destroy it Don't move, Mr. Case I shoot I'll take the film from your camera And toss it into the copper bowl on this table Okay I place your marked money in the bowl with it I strike a match, Mr. Casey, and burn them That gun makes you the boss Oh, Casey, when we tell Burke You burn the paper's money It is very probable that you will not be believed There will be a large suspicion That you kept it for yourself That doesn't bother me so much as the idea That you might beat this rap, Nasi I shall beat it Let's strike a match and burn that evidence Okay Money and the film in this bowl Beside your crystal ball Right at you, Nasi Knock the gun out of his hand Get an anti-quick Lookie, lookie That's a big prize, fighter Come here, lookie, help That's the guy I want to see again Take this gun, you'll need it No, I won't Lookie, I'm here, master You weren't expecting that crystal ball in your face, were you?
