 Jerry of the circus for Jerry of the circus high step open the door and go right inside anybody in here doing on me what's that had this car don't believe I've ever seen one just like this before these cars are special they're built to order you notice the bunks they're three high got to have them that way to conserve space they're compact all right now where we find spikes bump let me see I think Murray said spike was down at the end here come on and the men keep the car nice and clean you bet they don't have to we have enough room to be throwing things around the place for everything and if you'll notice everything's in its place oh oh here's spikes bunk yeah have a look around this stuff is yeah and that sweater and that little black police we'll have a look in the bag first anything in it now nothing but a clean workshop how about that sweater there and let's see no nothing in the pocket yeah I don't think you're gonna find anything had a way let me examine this bunk oh what is it have it well this mattress and what about it has been cut or torn here on the side say this might be something why you don't think for one minute I'll wait a minute I'll put my hand in this mattress a little farther something in there it feels like say what is it what is it badly I wait wait till I get it out feels like money what there yes sir that's what it is but but is it counterfeit let's have a look at these numbers hmm is it yep you bet it is I've got the man we've been looking for now this is not bad money to send him back to prison for a long long time I would have sworn spike didn't have anything to do with this mess here's the evidence mr. Randall yeah I guess that's all there is to it the shame to I had a feeling spike would have turned out to be a valuable man with a circus where do you figure he'd be about this time let's see what time it is oh it's just about time for the flag to be going up for supper should be going over to the mess top about now to take on some food well let's get over there then you were you're going to pick him up right now might as well get it over with well come on then what's matter what is it quiet about oh I I just can't understand why spike would do a thing like this go ahead mr. Randall yeah oh it's the same old story mr. Randall birds of a feather what do you mean by that prison exactly a constant association with men like where like his cellmate Tannetti naturally made a criminal out of yeah it's too bad by the time he gets out of jail for this offense he'll be an old man and not much used to the world you go this way yeah right over there we'll walk along that path and it'll take us right to the mess top at the end of the lot I don't like to brag mr. Randall but looks like I've got the right man spotted I'd have bet anything on spike honesty there's just something about him that well as I said before it's hard for me to believe this you saw me pull this kind of it money out of his mattress yes I know I know he'll get a fair trial all right when it's over he'll be on his way to prison again yes but now you'll have to find out where he got this bad money to pass I'll get that out of him all right oh look isn't that spike coming this way where oh yeah yeah that's him all right now how are you gonna do this he won't try to make a getaway oh I know that but I was just wondering if we couldn't do it some way so the rest of the truth wouldn't know about it no use making a big issue of it if we can help it I see what you mean well how about waiting here by the side of the tent and calling him over he doesn't suspect anything yet well yes that's a good idea I'll call him as he comes by I'll try to be quick about it I don't think any of the folks will notice what we're doing yeah yeah here he comes poor fella oh I hate to do this but the law has to take its course that's the way to look at it mr. Randall now go ahead and call him spike oh spike come here a minute I want to talk to you he doesn't suspect anything he's coming right over yes mr. Randall hello Adley hello spike yeah got a couple of minutes to spare sure I'm just going into supper I've got plenty of time though what you want I wanted to spike I want to tell you something but I don't want you let anyone else in on it okay let's shake hands on that all right hey what's the idea the handcuffs you're under arrest for what I haven't done anything I'm sorry about this bike what's it all about mr.
