 Lux presents Hollywood Radio theater brings you Errol Flynn, John Bennett, Mary Oster, and Ralph Bellamy in trade wins Ladies and gentlemen, your producer, Mr. Cecil B. DeMille Greetings from Hollywood ladies and gentlemen One of our stars on this stage tonight is distinctly out of his element But we've tried to make up for that by finding a play that would make it feel right at home To me, Errol Flynn always looks a little out of place on dry land That's because I'm more used to meeting him on deep water off the California coast Well, our greeting is neither spoken word nor shaken hand But a combination of signal flags that means hello from the Catalina Channel to the China Sea Leaning against him, main mist, dressed in faded dungarees Errol looks as though he'd stepped from the pages of a saltwater saga So tonight he's fittingly cast in the play called trade wins It's a four star production, and co-starring with Errol Flynn We present John Bennett, Mary Aster, and Ralph Bellamy In the course of the play we'll cover a lot of ground and the majority of the seven seas That's in keeping with the worldwide popularity of our product, Lux Toilets Oak In any hemisphere, beauty is at a premium and Clever women ask for Lux Toilets Oak in just about every language Trade wins is a drama of love and flight of a wealthy society girl wanted by the police And of a young detective who tracks her halfway around the world It's the drama of a man and woman who are meant for each other To find themselves enemies on opposite sides of the law Errol Flynn is our globe-trotting detective, Sam Y And the object of his globe-trotting is John Bennett Who plays Kay Kerrigan The same part she had in Walter Wanger's motion picture production of trade wins Mary Aster is Jean, a secretary who has nearly as much trouble keeping up with the detective as he has catching up with a girl he's trying to arrest Ralph Bellamy is Detective Blodgett, a little on the slow thinking side It's the role Ralph played on the screen and one that did a great deal to advance his career Now romance and adventure await us in many parts of the world as we raise the curtain on act one of trade wins Starting Errol Flynn as Sam Y Joan Bennett as Kay Kerrigan Mary Aster as Jean and Ralph Bellamy as Blodgett in the black hours just before dawn The city of San Francisco lies sleeping under a blanket of fog There's a curious stillness in the air But only by the low moan of Poghorn from the bay High in the fashionable apartment building a single light shines through a misty window And now at the door of that apartment a woman's gloved hand presses the buzzer There's a long wait and then at last the door opens slowly Who is it? Why it's Miss Kerrigan isn't it? Come in. I hope you'll pardon my keeping you waiting I didn't expect to visit at this time of night Well Miss Kerrigan I assume you came here for some purpose They found my sister's body in the bay What's that? What you saying? My sister. They found her tonight in the bay. Brown Brown? I can't believe it. She's so young and so lovely. How did this happen? You know how. Technically it was suicide. Actually it was murder and you murdered her Look here Miss Kerrigan it's natural you should be upset but hysterics won't help You murdered her I'll overlook what you're saying. You're not responsible just now But I haven't even seen your sister for over a month So that's why she was so pale and violent these last few weeks You wouldn't see her. That they must have been a relief That's not true. It was never serious between us Hers was nothing but a phase of passing infatuation for a man who belonged to a right club And a man whose father's money could protect him from anything Oh I know your name won't even be printed She left any letters. They'll mysteriously vanish There mustn't be any evidence to soil the name of Thomas Broome the second We can skip the melodrama. Let me get you something to snap you out of a drink You could use it The only thing I could use right now would be a gun on you Yes. It might help at that. At least it'll make you realize what you're saying And it wouldn't be murder. It would be execution I have a gun right here. Take it Miss Kerrigan. Go on that's right You see I'm not afraid of you even with that gun aimed right at my heart I'm not afraid. You wouldn't kill me because you know I'm not to blame Your sister knew what she was doing. It was Chief is this you Well this is Detective Blodgett chief right on the job as always I'm up at Broome's place chief and I just got the whole case tied up The murderer of Thomas Broome is a girl by the name of Kay Kerrigan Sure I'm sure First she had a grudge against Broome on account of her sister Second there's a pair of woman's gloves here Third I just found a package of marix cigarettes on the floor That's the kind she smokes cheap I asked her to take it from her friend That's right So don't give it a second thought chief This girl Kerrigan did it all right and I'll have it for you inside of one hour An okay Kerrigan I thought you were going to have her inside of one hour Blodgett I'm sorry chief honest I can't understand how she eluded me Oh no Well look at this You see that picture It's a picture of a ring isn't it Nice deduction Blodgett Yes it is Now read what it says on the picture Ring on that Royal Palms pawn shop on a Lulu By young woman giving name of Martha Bailey Right Now look at this design Well it's the same ring isn't it Well read read Ring designed for Miss Kay Kerrigan San Francisco 1929 There's your answer Mr. Blodgett While you were throwing a dragnet around San Francisco That's where she's been hiding Wait a second chief Are we so awful sure this Kerrigan girl done the murder Of course we are Groom was shot in the base of the skull which rules out to us that What's more there was no gun found in the apartment And furthermore the woman is obviously un-moral She was in a man's apartment in violation of ordinance number 693 Oh listen Groom's father says she did it The paper says she did it So the public says she did it And if we want to keep our job we've got to get her Well that's a routine matter now we know where she is Oh and I suppose she's going to stay there and wait for us Now look when she lands out of Hawaii She's out of American territory We've got to send somebody after her quick Why don't you send Harry Faulkner Ah we're getting somewhere There isn't a more upright and efficient law enforcement officer In the land than Harry Faulkner Oh Blodgett Why don't you get some educated party to read the papers Out loud to you Faulkner's in Europe on a smuggling case And there isn't anybody else Well chief Blodgett Why you couldn't pray La Puppy with muddy feet across a white bedspread There's only one capable man I know And that's Sam Y Sam Y Oh no chief not Sam Y Why not If it's a dame Sam will get her But it ain't been six months since you had to fire him off the force Well that wasn't entirely his fault How'd he know that girl was the commissioner's daughter But Sam Y is an upright chief He'll find her all right but if he'll find her He'll find her He'll find her But Sam Y isn't upright chief He'll find her all right but if he likes her He'll keep her for himself Sure, sure he'll keep her for himself For a while But when he gets tired of her he'll bring her back Oh miss Dave Get me Sam Y on the phone I'm telling you chief Why he'll cast a definite reflection on the force And besides he'll double crush Oh no Not this time you won't Because you're going along to what Hello Sam you'll Y

Perfecto delecto, ten cents Sweet Not a bad cigar either You know, Mrs. Y, you're growing old Do you realize that a year from now You'll no longer be a bride? Oh, you're wrong, Mr. Y Nobody ever grows old in the Lackadines A thousand years from today, I'll still be a bride I believe you've said a million Oh, not, Sam, we can't expect too much Why, a million years from now You may be bored with me You may even want a divorce You know, bride, I don't even like to joke about that Neither do I Funny What? Oh, I was just thinking How we got here Like the old sailing ships On the wings of the trade winds Over the sea to safety There's our highway, darling, out there Let us home Awesome Our life And we'll always be just the sun The sea, the trade wind And you, and me And nothing to be afraid of Ever again Nothing No, maybe you seem to be excited about something We're running down to the beach Sam, look, there's a boat there A white man's getting out of it It's, it's Harry Ford Oh, Sam But he's not going to get you Oh, yes he is, Sam It's right that he should You can't stop him I get the first shot Sam, please, you can't stop him I've got to Or we'll never be free There isn't room here for the three of us You and me and Faulkner's ghost Sam, please Waiting for us to make the first move Please, darling, please All right, come out, why And bring the girl with you Come and get us Oh, Sam, are you hurt? Here, put these handcuffs on, quick Okay, Sam, I'll arrest you In the name of the city of San Francisco You're a little late, Faulkner He's my prisoner $100,000 on the hook And bound to me by bands of steel Look Sam, you did this For the reward Well, what else? See, baby, I'm losing you in any case It's tough, but you can't expect me To press up that reward, too Come on, baby, we're going to San Francisco In just a moment, Mr. DeMille and our stars Harold Lynn, Joan Bennett, Mary Astor And Ralph Bellamy will return in act three Of trade wins Now in our short intermission I have something important to talk about Maybe I should say crow about You want to crow about something That doesn't seem like you, Mr. Ruick Well, this is something special I just can't help crowing about it I have some inside information that I gathered up Right here in Hollywood Oh, Mr. Ruick, we're all going to be interested in that Well, now that's what I thought This information comes from Irene Dunn Irene Dunn? Oh, isn't she lovely? Well, that's what I think So when I saw her at a party the other night I decided to find out something You saw her the other night? What did she have on? Now, isn't that just like a woman? I don't know what she had on I only know that she looked beautiful But as I was saying I've managed to get some real information About the beauty care she uses Well, as luck toilet soap You know she uses it Of course I know she uses it But I wanted to know how often she uses it And how she uses it And this is what I've found out She says she often uses luck toilet soap For a beauty freshener during the day And absolutely always uses it for a facial Before she goes to bed Oh yes, an active rider facial You know, lots of women besides green stars Are finding out how marvelous they are Well, Irene Dunn certainly is enthusiastic about them So I found out exactly how she takes An active rider facial I've written it down here Sally, will you read it to the ladies in the audience? Surely She says it's easy to work up A rich rider with luck soap I pat it gently into my skin With upward strokes and little taps Next I rinse with warm water Then cool Then I pat my face lightly to dry it Thanks, Sally Simple, isn't it? But Irene Dunn says these facials Are important And here's the reason Luck's toilet soap's active lather Gives the skin protection it needs The protection of thorough cleansing Oh, of course, every woman Thinks she takes proper care of her skin But often without realizing it A woman actually spoils her own looks And that's too bad Because there probably isn't any woman Who doesn't want her skin to be soft and smooth As lovely as Irene Dunn And this care, famous green stars use Is so simple and so quick Make a resolution now Not to neglect your skin Not to miss out on the appeal that it ought to have Use Luck's toilet soap The soap famous green stars use Regularly Keep it always on hand Buy it the economical way Get three cakes tomorrow We pause now for station identification This is the Columbia Broadcasting System Raise the curtain on the third act Of trade winds Back in San Francisco The news boys scream their headlines Hey, Bob! Call in the city prison Kay reads the latest story While Jean and Blodgett stand at her side Their eyes full of sympathy Sam Y. celebrates $100,000 hold Samuel Y. received his $100,000 reward today For building a gallows under Kay Carrigan Some of which he'll spend on a housewarming party Featuring wine, song, and most appropriate women Give me that paper I'd like to do that to the rabid person Lim from Lim Don't abandon hopefulism, Miss Carrigan There's only been three women hanging In the history of California And they were guilty of the most heinous crimes Fiends in human form Shut up! Hey, what did you kick me for? Don't try to figure it out, Big Shot Or your head will ache, too I'm sorry, Kay I don't want sympathy I shot Broom and I'd do it again But the jury feels I wasn't justified I'm not afraid to take any sentence they want to hang me It isn't shooting Broom that I regret Take it easy, honey I'd rather hang 20 times and live with this filthy feeling That I trusted, worshipped that Oh, I feel so... so smirky There's only one way I can ever get clean again The jury'll do that Don't be too severe on Sam I'll bet you right now he isn't feeling any too good himself No, if he isn't, it's because he forgot to Kick his mother goodbye this morning He hasn't got a mother How lucky for her Why, he's thinking of you right along, Miss Kerrigan Only this morning he asked me to give you these gloves They're not my gloves Why, Miss Kerrigan, I found them myself On Broom's desk, right beside the Corpus delicta I tell you they aren't mine No Then maybe Sam intended a little remembrance for you A remembrance? Is this a joke? Yes, that's it A joke A very funny joke Please, honey Why aren't you laughing? Everybody else is laughing Laugh and have fun Sam's made a joke and everybody's laughing Can't you see I'm laughing too? All right, Lodgett, let's go You've done your good deed to the day But I don't understand Oh, shut up It's a long, honey We'll be back soon All right, Matron, we're leaving You know what? Pays hatred of Sam amounts almost to an obsession You dope She'll go to work grave loving that heel Did you see Kay? Yes, I did Well? Miss Kerrigan flatly denies ownership of the gloves And refuses to accept them as a gift Good I was sure they were hers There were? For me, that's extremely bewildering Listen, nimble brain If one woman can get into a man's apartment Another woman can too And if another woman could get in She could kill Broom And leave her gloves behind I don't follow you, Sam Miss Kerrigan admits she shot Broom Yes, in the heart But Broom was shot in the back of the head Furthermore, I went up the Broom's apartment And I found something you overlooked I don't believe it Oh, you don't? Well, in the bottom drawer of his bureau I found her a vulva Loaded with blanks Blanks? But that's not logical You can't kill anyone with blanks Well, that's the idea A man like Broom would probably have plenty of threats He kept the blank revolver handy To get to any furious female Well, if he had one, he might have had two He handed the blank revolver to Kay She shot at him, he fell She thought she killed him And so she beat it to Honolulu What do you think of that? I'm confused Well, sure But outside of that, what do you think of it? Oh, fine Well, good Now look, Father, I'm constantly I'm a self-made, all-American heel, right? No doubt there are those who would concur I hope they all concur You see, if I've got them convinced I'd sell my wife for a hundred thousand That guilty party won't worry much About me turning them in Even if I find them Not if it means giving up that reward Oh, so it is Your recent question of a conduct was merely a cover-up While you hounded the real criminal to worth Can it be that lightning has struck? Sam, you must have endured Untold suffering these last few weeks Oh, thanks, Father Sometimes the evidence of a good egg Pops through that concrete skull of yours Now listen, here's the plan, such as it is There were six dames, count them, six Playing around with Broom and he was murdered But gloves fit one of them Well, they've all been invited The Broom's apartment tonight with their husbands Your logic is the murderer will return To the scene of his crime? Right, I'm gonna plant those gloves on the desk In the library The guilty woman, and it must be a woman Will try to grab them When she does, you'll grab her, get it? You'll confust me, Sam You know me, always on the job I hope so Well, I'd beat it And be at Broom's apartment at nine shop Going, bludgeon Okay, Sam Five females have gone into the library And out again Anyone touch those gloves yet? Nope, not yet Okay, keep watching I've got Makin' Joe standing by to help Ladies and gentlemen, we interrupt This program of dance music To bring you a late bulletin From the Carrigan murder trial Cornhouse gossip has it That you're a stand nine to three For conviction Keep you under this station For the latest development We return you now to our... To the library Yeah, Mrs. Ralph Cannell Stand by, bludgeon You'll want me to bail her No, I'll do it myself Good evening, Mrs. Cannell Oh, good evening I shall go to the library Good evening I saw you pick up those gloves Well, you can keep them I'd be meaning to return them to you for a long time They're not mine I must confess though They're so lovely I was tempted to steal them Oh, I'm sure Banisters Still keep them in stock Well, they... They too look like a pair I lost some months ago Well, they are the pair You lost them right here The night you killed Broom I didn't do it I swear I didn't shoot him John, don't come in here Well, you told him I haven't told him anything Quiet, I'll handle this Well done, Mr. Cannell Come on, now see, let's get out of here Oh, wait a minute, what's the hurry? I'm not going to ask you to talk I know the answers anyway Mr. Cannell You bumped Broom off when Kerrigan bought the job That was a break for you You knocked him off Then pinned the wrap on Kerrigan And she thought she shot him in the heart When the job was actually done With a bullet in the back of her head Listen, you can't insult her Oh, not that it's any of my business I've got my hundred grand unsatisfied Oh, my apologies, old man I'd forgotten where your desk interests lay Yes, I shot Broom just like you'd shoot a dog But you won't talk Even if you did, no one would believe you Not without a witness And my wife can't testify against me You're smart, Cannell Even if I wanted to I couldn't prove your confession Without another witness Okay, sir, I got every word Nice work, Father Why, you! Look out Did I? Did I? No, you've got him in the arm Nice shooting Shit, I was afraid of him Oh, gosh, sir Hey, Mac Go Take this guy, Cannell, out Oh, and yeah, bring in a stretcher We've got an unconscious cop Let me see, Mr. Y Two tickets to Bombay Your passage to the Lackety Violins You'll have to arrange for yourself Oh, I've done that before Thank you Thank you, sir Oh, say, Clark Are my tickets ready yet?

Someone I know I guess you do, all right And you know what? She's going to give up her whole medicinal practice for me Oh, Dr. Livingston, I presume I was almost afraid that I wouldn't be here But it was all a dream Darling, does it really happen? Where were we here before? Am I really free? Over the sea to safety On the wings of the trade winds Oh, darling You know, this only happens once to a man Only once may he reach up his hands And touch them Oh, sorry For a moment, I forgot Okay I've got those new words All bright and shiny They're inside, but I don't seem to be able to get them out I know There'll be time You see This is it, darling This is eternity Mockwood?
