WEBVTT 00:00.000 --> 00:03.000 The story of Dr. Kildare. 00:03.000 --> 00:08.000 Whatsoever house I enter, there will I go for the benefit of the sick. 00:08.000 --> 00:14.000 And whatsoever things I see or hear concerning the life of men, I will keep silence thereon, counting such things to be held as sacred trust. 00:14.000 --> 00:17.000 I will exercise my arts only for the cure of my... 00:19.000 --> 00:24.000 The story of Dr. Kildare, starring Lou Ayres and Lionel Barrymore. 00:26.000 --> 00:29.000 Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer brought you those famous motion pictures. 00:29.000 --> 00:32.000 Now this exciting, heartwarming series is heard on radio. 00:32.000 --> 00:35.000 In just a moment, the story of Dr. Kildare. 00:35.000 --> 00:37.000 But first, your announcer. 00:43.000 --> 00:50.000 Now the story of Dr. Kildare, starring Lou Ayres as Dr. Kildare and Lionel Barrymore as Dr. Gillespie. 00:56.000 --> 00:57.000 Hello, Dr. G. 00:57.000 --> 01:01.000 Well, where have you been, Jimmy? I haven't seen you all morning. 01:01.000 --> 01:04.000 I've been giving Walter Benton a final check-up before his release. 01:04.000 --> 01:06.000 You mean he's ready to go home? 01:06.000 --> 01:11.000 Oh, yes, he's fine. Cardiac surgery's tricky, but it certainly worked for him. 01:11.000 --> 01:13.000 You'd never know there'd been anything wrong with his heart. 01:13.000 --> 01:18.000 Well, Jimmy, that's splendid. Must make you feel pretty good. 01:18.000 --> 01:20.000 Oh, it does. He's well all right. 01:20.000 --> 01:25.000 Told me the first thing he's going to do when he gets out of here is buy a box of cigars and a chain-smoker. 01:25.000 --> 01:29.000 Have you seen Parker around anyplace? 01:29.000 --> 01:30.000 No, why? 01:30.000 --> 01:36.000 Well, I can't find some of my charts. The old witch is always disappearing when I need her. 01:36.000 --> 01:40.000 You can blame me for that. I asked her to go bring Benton's clothes to him so he could get dressed. 01:40.000 --> 01:42.000 She should be back any second. 01:42.000 --> 01:45.000 I can't find anything. The way she upsets things. 01:45.000 --> 01:49.000 Oh, Dr. Gillespie, is Dr. Kildare here? 01:49.000 --> 01:54.000 Is Dr. Kildare here? No, Parker, Dr. Kildare's in Honolulu. 01:54.000 --> 01:59.000 Who the devil do you think that is, Napoleon Bonaparte? 01:59.000 --> 02:05.000 Well, if you didn't have so much junk on your desk all the time, I might be able to see who was on the other side of it. 02:05.000 --> 02:12.000 You're lucky you can see who's on the other side of the plate glass window. Now what do you want? 02:12.000 --> 02:20.000 Well, if your royal highness doesn't mind, the desk needs Dr. Kildare's signature on this release for Mr. Benton. 02:20.000 --> 02:23.000 Oh, give it here, Parker. Is he ready to go? 02:23.000 --> 02:30.000 Yes, he's all dressed. I called a taxi for him. He's sitting up in his room just humming and waiting. 02:30.000 --> 02:33.000 Well, that's fine. There. 02:33.000 --> 02:35.000 Hey, you ready to go to lunch, Dr. G? 02:35.000 --> 02:39.000 Yes, Jimmy, yep. I'm hungry. 02:39.000 --> 02:44.000 Oh, Parker, while we're gone, try and clean up that mess you made at my desk. 02:44.000 --> 02:49.000 Mess I've made? Well, I've all of it. 02:49.000 --> 02:52.000 Oh, where do you want to eat, Sullivan's or Sullivan's? 02:52.000 --> 02:56.000 Where do we always eat? It's the only rest of the day. 02:56.000 --> 02:57.000 What was that? 02:57.000 --> 03:02.000 It sounded like Parker screaming from your office. Come on. 03:02.000 --> 03:08.000 Oh, Dr. Gillespie, Dr. Kildare, I saw it. It went right past the window. A man's body. 03:08.000 --> 03:13.000 A man's body? Someone must have fallen from the upper stories. 03:13.000 --> 03:16.000 I don't see anything down there. 03:16.000 --> 03:20.000 Well, there is something moving in the bushes along the driveway. 03:20.000 --> 03:23.000 Oh, it's only Wayman. He's trying to drag somebody. 03:23.000 --> 03:24.000 Hey, Wayman! 03:24.000 --> 03:27.000 Doc, you better come quick to stay. He fell! 03:27.000 --> 03:28.000 See, see, I told you. I saw him. 03:28.000 --> 03:30.000 Well, we better get down there. 03:30.000 --> 03:32.000 Wonder who it is. 03:32.000 --> 03:36.000 I know who it is, Dr. Gillespie. I saw the suit he was wearing when Wayman moved the bushes. 03:36.000 --> 03:50.000 It's Walter Benton. 03:50.000 --> 03:52.000 Well, he's dead, Jimmy. 03:52.000 --> 03:57.000 Yes. I guess we couldn't expect anything else after a seven-story fall. 03:57.000 --> 03:59.000 Was it a fall or a jump? 03:59.000 --> 04:03.000 Oh, why would he jump? When he was ill and depressed, yes, but not now. 04:03.000 --> 04:06.000 Not when he was well and ready to go out and enjoy life. 04:06.000 --> 04:08.000 Did you see the fall, Wayman? 04:08.000 --> 04:11.000 No, I just heard him hit. 04:11.000 --> 04:15.000 I was sitting over there in the ambulance entrance reading a paper and I heard it. 04:15.000 --> 04:16.000 That's all. 04:16.000 --> 04:19.000 I guess I was the only one. I ran right over to him and tried to drag him out of the bushes. 04:19.000 --> 04:25.000 Well, I realize you meant well, Wayman, but you know better than to touch a body until the police arrive. 04:25.000 --> 04:29.000 I didn't know how far he fell, Doc. I thought maybe he'd still be alive. 04:29.000 --> 04:33.000 Well, even so, no one should touch him except the doctor. You especially know this. 04:33.000 --> 04:35.000 Well, yes, Doc. I was only trying to help. 04:35.000 --> 04:38.000 Well, the police will want a detailed report, Jimmy. 04:38.000 --> 04:42.000 You better get complete statements from Wayman and Parker. 04:42.000 --> 04:57.000 Meanwhile, I'll go up to the seventh floor and see what information I can get from the floor nurse. 04:57.000 --> 05:00.000 Then you don't think he jumped, Miss Madden? 05:00.000 --> 05:06.000 No, Doctor. My desk faces his room. I couldn't help seeing him moving around in there this morning. 05:06.000 --> 05:11.000 He seemed very cheerful, called out to me that he was leaving today and said he'd send me some candy. 05:11.000 --> 05:16.000 Well, what else did you see? Was anybody with him? Any visitor? 05:16.000 --> 05:20.000 No. After Parker gave him his clothes, he closed the door to dress. 05:20.000 --> 05:23.000 Then the cashier brought an envelope to him. 05:23.000 --> 05:28.000 He took it and came out into the hall to use my pen to sign a receipt and then went back into his room again. 05:28.000 --> 05:33.000 Where were you when he fell? Did you hear any sound from the room? 05:33.000 --> 05:36.000 Well, I'm afraid I must have been away from the desk for just a moment. 05:36.000 --> 05:40.000 A patient at the other end of the corridor just out of surgery rang for me. 05:40.000 --> 05:45.000 She was just barely coming to, groggy, and I stayed with her for a while. 05:45.000 --> 05:51.000 I see. Oh, here's Dr. Kildare. You finished downstairs, Jimmy? 05:51.000 --> 05:55.000 Yes, but nobody saw anything. Benton must have fallen. 05:55.000 --> 06:00.000 Well, Miss Madden agrees with that theory. She said Benton seemed very cheerful. 06:00.000 --> 06:02.000 Well, that doesn't prove anything. 06:02.000 --> 06:07.000 A police squad car was here. They reported to their headquarters and Detective Kerner is being sent over. 06:16.000 --> 06:20.000 Well, Kerner, what do you think? Fall or jump? 06:20.000 --> 06:27.000 I'll go along with Dr. Kildare's theory. My official report will say a fall, but there's something else that must be cleared up. 06:30.000 --> 06:36.000 These are the personal effects we took from Benton's body. Keys, papers, six dollars and 81 cents. 06:36.000 --> 06:38.000 Uh-huh. Well, what about it? 06:38.000 --> 06:46.000 Dr. Kildare, how long was it between the time your ambulance driver, Wayman, reached the body and the time somebody else got there? 06:46.000 --> 06:51.000 Why, I don't know. Couldn't have been more than a minute or so. Why? 06:51.000 --> 06:54.000 Wayman all alone with the body during that minute? 06:54.000 --> 06:57.000 Yes, I guess so. What are you driving at? 06:57.000 --> 07:05.000 Doc, Benton had a visitor yesterday, his attorney, Robert Walsh. He delivered 25,000 dollars in cash to Benton. 07:05.000 --> 07:06.000 What? 07:06.000 --> 07:13.000 Yeah, it was placed in the hospital safe and it was given to Benton by the hospital cashier just a few minutes before Benton's body landed in that driveway. 07:13.000 --> 07:15.000 25,000 in cash? 07:15.000 --> 07:21.000 There was something else in the safe, too. Benton's ring, worth 2,000 dollars. 07:21.000 --> 07:30.000 The cashier has a receipt for both the money and the ring, but when Benton landed out there, he had no ring and only six dollars plus change. 07:30.000 --> 07:46.000 Doc, I don't like this any more than you'll like it, but we're going to have to put Wayman under arrest. My boys are picking him up at home right now. 07:46.000 --> 07:49.000 All right, Wayman, you wait in here for a minute. 07:49.000 --> 07:52.000 Okay, but I didn't do nothing. 07:52.000 --> 07:57.000 Hey, hey, Dr. Kildare and Dr. Gillespie, what are you in for? 07:57.000 --> 08:00.000 I'm afraid we're here as character witnesses for you. 08:00.000 --> 08:04.000 They think I took something from that guy who fell out of the window today. 08:04.000 --> 08:07.000 That's all a mistake, Wayman, just don't worry about it. 08:07.000 --> 08:12.000 They can question you, but they won't dare file charges. They have no evidence. 08:12.000 --> 08:18.000 I heard a lawyer tell a fellow that once and six months later the guy got electrocuted. 08:18.000 --> 08:21.000 Sure, that isn't going to happen to you. 08:21.000 --> 08:25.000 Wayman, this is Mr. Walsh. Walsh, Dr. Kildare and Dr. Gillespie. 08:25.000 --> 08:26.000 That'll do. 08:26.000 --> 08:28.000 Mr. Walsh wants to talk to you, Wayman. 08:28.000 --> 08:32.000 Oh, and we'd like to talk to Mr. Walsh. You were Mr. Benton's attorney, weren't you? 08:32.000 --> 08:33.000 Yes, I was. 08:33.000 --> 08:38.000 Well, I suppose you have proof that you delivered $25,000 to Mr. Benton when you visited him yesterday. 08:38.000 --> 08:40.000 I certainly do, Dr. Kildare. 08:40.000 --> 08:44.000 We checked his story, Doc. He has a receipt for the money, just as the hospital cashier does. 08:44.000 --> 08:48.000 I see. Now, I have something to ask Mr. Wayman. 08:48.000 --> 08:54.000 Could anybody else have taken anything from Mr. Benton's body after he fell without being seen by you? 08:54.000 --> 08:57.000 Wayman, I don't think you should answer that. 08:57.000 --> 08:59.000 He has to answer it. 08:59.000 --> 09:01.000 Well, Wayman? 09:01.000 --> 09:07.000 I was the only one there until the docs and everybody else come running out. 09:07.000 --> 09:10.000 Thank you. I guess that's all, Detective Turner. 09:10.000 --> 09:14.000 All right, Walsh. We'll notify you when and if the money's recovered. 09:14.000 --> 09:16.000 I guess you'll be settling the estate, huh? 09:16.000 --> 09:19.000 Yes. Well, good day, gentlemen. 09:19.000 --> 09:21.000 Just a minute, Mr. Walsh. 09:21.000 --> 09:26.000 One thing I'd like to know, why Benton had such a large sum of cash? 09:26.000 --> 09:31.000 Well, habit, idiosyncrasy. I'd sold some stock holdings. 09:31.000 --> 09:36.000 He'd always insisted on cash payment delivered into his own hands. 09:36.000 --> 09:38.000 Is there anything else? 09:38.000 --> 09:40.000 I guess that's all. 09:40.000 --> 09:43.000 All right, then, gentlemen. Good-bye. 09:44.000 --> 09:46.000 Well, Doc, here it is. 09:46.000 --> 09:47.000 Here what is? 09:47.000 --> 09:51.000 Oh, Kerner, we'll vouch for Wayman. He didn't have anything to do with this. 09:51.000 --> 09:53.000 It's ridiculous. We've worked with him for years. 09:53.000 --> 09:55.000 That money didn't just go up in smoke. 09:55.000 --> 09:57.000 No, but you didn't find it on Wayman either. 09:57.000 --> 10:01.000 Oh, Kerner, until you have something definite, I think he should be released. 10:01.000 --> 10:03.000 Oh, I don't know. 10:03.000 --> 10:07.000 Will you guarantee his appearance if we want him again? 10:07.000 --> 10:17.000 Absolutely. 10:20.000 --> 10:21.000 Morning, Dr. G. 10:21.000 --> 10:24.000 Jimmy, where's Wayman? 10:24.000 --> 10:27.000 I came up the back way and he wasn't in the ambulance room. 10:27.000 --> 10:30.000 Oh, he probably stayed home for a rest. I don't know. 10:30.000 --> 10:32.000 Dr. Kildare! Dr. Kildare! 10:32.000 --> 10:34.000 Well, hello, Dr. Carew. What's wrong now? 10:34.000 --> 10:39.000 What's wrong? You dare ask me that with the reputation of Blair Hospital about to be dragged to the mire? 10:39.000 --> 10:43.000 Carew, will you stop wailing like little Eva on the ice cake? 10:43.000 --> 10:45.000 Little Eva, huh? 10:45.000 --> 10:48.000 Why didn't you and Kildare confide in me yesterday? 10:48.000 --> 10:55.000 Why did you leave it to the police to inform me that Wayman is suspected of the scavenger robbing of Walter Benton's body? 10:55.000 --> 10:57.000 Well, there was no need to tell you. 10:57.000 --> 10:59.000 No evidence to hold him. 10:59.000 --> 11:00.000 Oh, didn't they? 11:00.000 --> 11:05.000 Then please explain why at this moment he's being held in jail in lieu of $10,000 bail. 11:05.000 --> 11:06.000 In jail? 11:06.000 --> 11:08.000 You mean they picked him up again, but why? 11:08.000 --> 11:12.000 Because when they visited his apartment again at seven o'clock this morning, 11:12.000 --> 11:30.000 they found Wayman in possession of the ring that was stolen from Benton's body. 11:30.000 --> 11:45.000 We return to the story of Dr. Kildare in just a moment. 12:00.000 --> 12:23.000 Now we continue with the story of Dr. Kildare starring Lou Ayers as Dr. Kildare and Lionel Barrymore as Dr. Gillespie. 12:23.000 --> 12:26.000 Gee, Doc, it was nice of you to come and see me. 12:26.000 --> 12:29.000 I can just barely see you through this wire mesh. 12:29.000 --> 12:31.000 This ain't no chicken coop. 12:31.000 --> 12:35.000 Wayman, I thought you were innocent and I want to keep on thinking so, 12:35.000 --> 12:39.000 but they say they found the ring at your place. 12:39.000 --> 12:43.000 They found it all right, but I don't know how it got there. 12:43.000 --> 12:46.000 Honest, I was having my breakfast when they bust in. 12:46.000 --> 12:48.000 They looked all over and didn't find nothing. 12:48.000 --> 12:54.000 Then all of a sudden one of the cops, he empties my bottle of milk in the sink and... 12:54.000 --> 12:57.000 There it is, the ring. 12:57.000 --> 12:59.000 In the bottle of milk? 12:59.000 --> 13:05.000 Yeah, Doc, but I just brought the bottle in from the hall not ten minutes before that. 13:05.000 --> 13:07.000 I don't know. 13:07.000 --> 13:15.000 I heard the ring's in a box of cracker. 13:15.000 --> 13:22.000 From right where the milkman leave it, but the cops, they say I heard them coming, so I put the ring in the bottle. 13:22.000 --> 13:25.000 So I says to them, OK. 13:25.000 --> 13:27.000 Well, what then did I do with the 25Js? 13:27.000 --> 13:29.000 Scrambled it up in my eggs? 13:29.000 --> 13:35.000 Somebody must have uncapped that milk bottle and put the ring in it to throw suspicion on you. 13:35.000 --> 13:38.000 Sure. That must be it. 13:38.000 --> 13:40.000 Of course it is, and we've got to find out who did it. 13:40.000 --> 13:43.000 Then we'll know where to look for the money. 13:43.000 --> 13:46.000 Meanwhile, Wayman, I'm afraid you'll have to stay here. 13:46.000 --> 13:51.000 Dr. Gillespie and I tried, but we just can't raise enough to bail you out. 13:51.000 --> 13:53.000 I don't sweat it out, Doc, but what are you going to do? 13:53.000 --> 13:58.000 I don't know. Start by looking through the things Walter Benton left in his room at the hospital, I guess. 13:58.000 --> 14:01.000 Maybe a clue there. Something the police missed. 14:01.000 --> 14:13.000 Oh, I'm sorry. 14:13.000 --> 14:17.000 Well, who are you? What are you doing in this room? 14:17.000 --> 14:21.000 Detective Kerner said it would be all right for me to remove my father's things. 14:21.000 --> 14:23.000 I'm Valerie Benton. 14:23.000 --> 14:28.000 Oh, I see. Well, I'm Dr. Kildare. I took care of your father. 14:28.000 --> 14:31.000 He was my patient, but I didn't know he had a daughter. 14:31.000 --> 14:35.000 No, I guess he stopped telling people that he had one. 14:35.000 --> 14:39.000 My poor father, I... 14:39.000 --> 14:41.000 Well, take it easy. 14:41.000 --> 14:45.000 Why did a thing like this have to happen to him? Why did he do such a thing? 14:45.000 --> 14:48.000 Oh, Miss Benton, your father didn't do anything. 14:48.000 --> 14:54.000 Set your mind at ease. From all the police and the staff can determine his death was an accident. 14:54.000 --> 14:57.000 You know, you don't look so well. 14:57.000 --> 15:00.000 I don't think you should be here. You should be resting. 15:00.000 --> 15:06.000 I thought that by coming here and packing his things, I might get close to him. 15:06.000 --> 15:10.000 I was all alone last night after I heard. 15:10.000 --> 15:15.000 Perhaps you should have gone to friends. Father's attorney, Bill Walsh, certainly he'd have helped. 15:15.000 --> 15:17.000 I couldn't go to Bill Walsh. He hates me. 15:17.000 --> 15:19.000 Oh, come now. 15:19.000 --> 15:22.000 It's the truth. He poisoned my father's mind against me. 15:22.000 --> 15:26.000 That's why you never saw me here. I wouldn't have been welcome. 15:26.000 --> 15:29.000 But why? Why would Walsh do a thing like that? 15:29.000 --> 15:34.000 Bill Walsh wanted to marry me. When I refused, when I wouldn't have him. 15:34.000 --> 15:37.000 He told my father all sorts of horrible lies. 15:37.000 --> 15:39.000 Oh, I see. 15:39.000 --> 15:45.000 That's why I have nobody to turn to. No place to go. I don't want to be alone. 15:45.000 --> 15:48.000 I'm frightened. Frightened. 15:48.000 --> 15:51.000 Miss Benson, you're upset. He was making you ill. 15:51.000 --> 15:54.000 Perhaps friends wouldn't be the answer. 15:54.000 --> 15:58.000 Why don't you check into the hospital where you can get some rest and care? 15:58.000 --> 16:04.000 You're the first person who's been kind to me in never so long. 16:04.000 --> 16:08.000 If I do stay here, will you take care of me? 16:08.000 --> 16:24.000 Of course, Miss Benton, if you want me to. 16:24.000 --> 16:26.000 Oh, hello, Dr. Killeley. 16:26.000 --> 16:28.000 May I come in? 16:28.000 --> 16:30.000 May you come in. 16:30.000 --> 16:36.000 You're getting to be quite manly since you've been spending most of your time with Miss Benton, aren't you? 16:36.000 --> 16:38.000 She's a very interesting patient. 16:38.000 --> 16:41.000 That doesn't tell us what happened to her father's money. 16:41.000 --> 16:43.000 No, no it doesn't. 16:43.000 --> 16:48.000 But I hope to find out soon. I've asked Benton's attorney Bill Walsh to come to my office. He's due any minute. 16:48.000 --> 16:50.000 I'd like to have you there, too. 16:50.000 --> 16:54.000 All right, Jimmy, all right. But you'll get no help from him. 16:54.000 --> 16:58.000 Not unless he helps put a big an oose around Wayman's neck. 16:58.000 --> 17:02.000 Oh, may get more than you think. 17:02.000 --> 17:04.000 Doc, look. 17:04.000 --> 17:06.000 Wayman. 17:06.000 --> 17:08.000 I'm out of the clink. 17:08.000 --> 17:10.000 Well, that's pretty obvious. But how did you get out? 17:10.000 --> 17:13.000 Did you get a file and saw your way out? 17:13.000 --> 17:16.000 No. Somebody put up my bail. 17:16.000 --> 17:18.000 Ten thousand dollars? Bail who? 17:18.000 --> 17:23.000 I don't know, Doc. A bondsman come and got me. He said he was sent by a friend of mine. 17:23.000 --> 17:25.000 Well, I thought maybe it was you. 17:25.000 --> 17:27.000 Why the devil didn't you make him tell you? 17:27.000 --> 17:31.000 Doc, why should I choke a guy who rescued me from that place? 17:31.000 --> 17:36.000 Someone must have had a good reason for wanting you out of jail and away from the police. 17:36.000 --> 17:40.000 Come on, Dr. G. We'd better meet Bill Walsh in my office. 17:49.000 --> 17:51.000 Sit down, please, Mr. Walsh. 17:51.000 --> 17:53.000 All right. Thank you. 17:53.000 --> 17:57.000 It was nice of you to come. You probably know that Valerie Benton's a patient here now. 17:57.000 --> 18:00.000 As her doctor, I'd like to ask you a few questions. 18:00.000 --> 18:04.000 About what? About my alleged persecution of her? Is that it? 18:04.000 --> 18:09.000 No. Because frankly, I haven't believed Valerie Benton. 18:09.000 --> 18:15.000 I think she's mercurial, neurotic, could be a pathological liar. 18:15.000 --> 18:20.000 Well, Dr. Kildare, you surprise me. I thought she could fool any man for a while. 18:20.000 --> 18:22.000 You're very observant. 18:22.000 --> 18:26.000 Well, that's part of his business. He's a doctor. We're both trying to help a friend. 18:26.000 --> 18:28.000 Your ambulance driver, of course. 18:28.000 --> 18:31.000 But to help him, we need help. 18:31.000 --> 18:34.000 Now, tell me, were you ever in love with Valerie? 18:34.000 --> 18:39.000 Never. Despite what I imagine she told you, there was never anything between us. 18:39.000 --> 18:43.000 Valerie blames you for the estrangement between her and her father? 18:43.000 --> 18:44.000 Her stepfather. 18:44.000 --> 18:45.000 Oh? 18:45.000 --> 18:48.000 Yes. And in a way, what she says is true. 18:48.000 --> 18:54.000 Kildare, Valerie is one of those people who suddenly become obsessed with anything they can't get. 18:54.000 --> 18:58.000 I tried to discourage her. Benton saw what was happening. He tried to send her away. 18:58.000 --> 19:01.000 She refused to be sent. Packed up and left home. 19:01.000 --> 19:02.000 Is that the truth? 19:02.000 --> 19:05.000 Why should I lie about it? Benton hadn't been convinced of that. 19:05.000 --> 19:08.000 Do you think he'd have let her go and continue to let me handle his affairs? 19:08.000 --> 19:13.000 Oh, that's a good answer. Does that girl benefit by Benton's will? 19:13.000 --> 19:16.000 No, she doesn't. She was to be cut off with one dollar. 19:16.000 --> 19:19.000 He told her that the last time they met before he came here. 19:19.000 --> 19:23.000 Then Valerie might have done a lot of things to get her hands on that money Benton had. 19:23.000 --> 19:26.000 Yes, but how? Any stranger would have been seen in the building. 19:26.000 --> 19:29.000 The police checked thoroughly. They know nobody was near Benton. 19:29.000 --> 19:32.000 Somebody was near enough to get the money. 19:32.000 --> 19:35.000 Well, thank you, Mr. Walsh. You've helped more than you know. 19:35.000 --> 19:37.000 Well, if you don't need me for anything more, I'll... 19:37.000 --> 19:39.000 We have all we need. Goodbye, Mr. Walsh. 19:39.000 --> 19:40.000 Goodbye. 19:42.000 --> 19:48.000 Jimmy, you painted Valerie Benton as quite a character in trying to draw out Walsh. 19:48.000 --> 19:53.000 Might have been a better portrait than you think, Dr. Gillespie. 20:02.000 --> 20:03.000 Hello, Valerie. 20:03.000 --> 20:06.000 Why'd you leave me alone so long? There hasn't been a nurse here or anything? 20:06.000 --> 20:11.000 Oh, no reason why you can't be alone. I was just having a talk with Bill Walsh. 20:11.000 --> 20:14.000 Bill Walsh? What about? What's he been saying about me now? 20:14.000 --> 20:18.000 Oh, never mind that. I have something to tell you about him. 20:18.000 --> 20:20.000 The police are watching him. 20:20.000 --> 20:22.000 Oh? Why? 20:22.000 --> 20:24.000 They think he may be the one they're after. 20:24.000 --> 20:29.000 They think your father might have been pushed from the window of his room. 20:29.000 --> 20:31.000 What makes them think that? 20:31.000 --> 20:35.000 I don't know. I do think he'd be capable of a thing like that. 20:35.000 --> 20:41.000 Oh, yes. Yes, he's cruel, Jimmy, and vicious. They ought to arrest him. 20:41.000 --> 20:44.000 Well, I think they would if they only had one thing. 20:44.000 --> 20:50.000 Just an idea of how he might have gotten in here without being seen. 20:50.000 --> 20:54.000 I... I can think of a way he might have. 20:54.000 --> 20:56.000 Oh, really? Huh. 20:56.000 --> 21:05.000 Well, if he dressed in white like a ward man, he could go through the back entrance, emergency, the opening to the stairs. 21:05.000 --> 21:09.000 Once he got in, nobody'd pay any special attention to him in a white uniform. 21:09.000 --> 21:11.000 That's right. Go ahead. 21:11.000 --> 21:16.000 Well, on the seventh floor, if he pressed a buzzer in one of the empty rooms, 21:16.000 --> 21:19.000 then moved into another one until the floor nurse was out of the way, 21:19.000 --> 21:23.000 he could have slipped into my father's room unnoticed, closed the door. 21:23.000 --> 21:26.000 You know, that's good, Valerie, very good. 21:26.000 --> 21:30.000 They might be able to arrest him with just a little bit more. What then? 21:30.000 --> 21:35.000 With a gun he could have robbed my father, make him walk to an open window. 21:35.000 --> 21:38.000 The sills are low, one push. 21:38.000 --> 21:42.000 Then with all the commotion in the back, down the stairs and right out the front door. 21:42.000 --> 21:46.000 Yes, but the ring, they found on our ambulance driver. How about that? 21:46.000 --> 21:49.000 Walsh probably put it there to create suspicion. 21:49.000 --> 21:53.000 Yes. As a matter of fact, that's just the way it did happen. Isn't it, Valerie? 21:53.000 --> 21:59.000 I... I don't know. But that could be it, Jimmy. It could, couldn't it? 21:59.000 --> 22:04.000 You should know. You did it. You came here dressed as a nurse and killed your stepfather. 22:04.000 --> 22:06.000 I didn't. What are you saying? I didn't. 22:06.000 --> 22:09.000 The police know you did, Valerie. You made a mistake when you planted that ring. 22:09.000 --> 22:11.000 You left a fingerprint on the milk bottle. 22:11.000 --> 22:14.000 I didn't. I couldn't. I was wearing gloves. 22:14.000 --> 22:17.000 Valerie. Valerie, put down that gun. Let go of it. 22:17.000 --> 22:20.000 All right, Mr. Mousy. 22:20.000 --> 22:39.000 You heard it all, Colonel? Every word, Doc. Thanks. We'll take it from here. 22:39.000 --> 22:48.000 Hello, Wayman. I still don't understand how anybody could put up $10,000 without you having some idea who it was. 22:48.000 --> 22:55.000 You can search me. I can never even borrow five bucks from nobody between paylives. 22:55.000 --> 22:59.000 Well, the bonding company must know who guaranteed the money. 22:59.000 --> 23:01.000 Yes, but they operate in strictest confidence. 23:01.000 --> 23:05.000 Well, well, gentlemen. I see Mr. Wayman is with us again. 23:05.000 --> 23:10.000 Karoo, I suppose your whole day is ruined because I didn't hang him. 23:10.000 --> 23:15.000 Well, am I gonna be fired, Dr. Karoo? 23:15.000 --> 23:19.000 No, no, no, no. An innocent man is entitled to another chance. 23:19.000 --> 23:23.000 Another chance? Well, well, that's real generous. 23:23.000 --> 23:28.000 I'll get it. Hello? Oh, yes, I'll tell him. 23:28.000 --> 23:31.000 You're wanted in your office, Dr. Karoo. 23:31.000 --> 23:35.000 Mr. Morton is waiting with some releases from the Apex surety company. 23:35.000 --> 23:39.000 Oh, yes, well, excuse me, gentlemen. 23:40.000 --> 23:43.000 That stuffy long nose. 23:43.000 --> 23:48.000 Wait a minute, Dr. G. Apex surety? Why, that's a bonding company. 23:48.000 --> 23:54.000 Yeah, and the guy who got me out. His name was Morton. 23:54.000 --> 23:58.000 You mean Karoo put up Wayman's bail, Jimmy? 23:58.000 --> 24:02.000 It must have been. There's no other answer. It was Dr. Karoo. 24:02.000 --> 24:20.000 Karoo. I know it's true, but I'll never believe it. 24:20.000 --> 24:35.000 In just a moment, we will return to the story of Dr. Kildare. 24:50.000 --> 25:09.000 And now, once again, the story of Dr. Kildare starring Lou Ayres as Dr. Kildare and Lionel Baramore as Dr. Gillespie. 25:09.000 --> 25:13.000 Yeah, fine thing. 25:13.000 --> 25:16.000 What's the matter now, Dr. G? What are you growling about? 25:16.000 --> 25:23.000 He's been like that all day. Karoo putting up Wayman's bail. It was a dirty trick. 25:23.000 --> 25:26.000 A dirty trick? You heard me, a dirty trick. 25:26.000 --> 25:31.000 How can you say that, Dr. G? It was surprisingly generous. Karoo must have pledged everything he owned. 25:31.000 --> 25:37.000 And I heard him threaten to sock a reporter if he ever again wrote a story calling anybody at Blair Hospital a crook. 25:37.000 --> 25:43.000 No, Karoo sure he did. That's just part of the whole dirty trick. 25:43.000 --> 25:58.000 He does a thing like this when he knows I've spent the last 20 years learning to hate him. 25:58.000 --> 26:04.000 You have just heard the story of Dr. Kildare starring Lou Ayres and Lionel Baramore. 26:04.000 --> 26:08.000 This program was written by Joel Mercotte and directed by Joe Bigelow. 26:08.000 --> 26:16.000 Original music was composed and conducted by Walter Shuman. Virginia Gregg was heard as Nurse Parker and Ted Osborne as Dr. Karoo. 26:16.000 --> 26:22.000 Others in the cast included Ed Max, Yvonne Patey, Herb Ellis, Florence Ravenel, and Barney Phillips. 26:22.000 --> 26:38.000 Dick Joy speaking. 26:52.000 --> 26:57.000 Thank you for watching.
