he's bluffing you know putting on an act you'll pay off to keep the ACT going I just want to steer clear of Bright Eyes Bright Eyes the Dame think she spotted me a couple of times she liable to get cops in our hair I didn't count on little bright eyes I didn't count on you boys either but you're here yeah proves are some justice after all don't it you don't have to say it Bob I know you know what what you were going to tell me that 10 years ago you awoke in a hospital with your memory of blank I made it a point to find Alan I told you before there wasn't a Mrs Hardway but there may be a Mrs whatever your name was well perhaps it's intuition maybe I'm just leading with my chin but I don't think there is but we've got to be sure I meant what I said Bob Robert Ordway is the man I know that other man the past they don't exist I wish you were right tonight for example that man whose hand I treated he seemed to know me and then for some reason he denied it I think he was lying maybe I'm getting neurotic but for the past few weeks I've had the feeling that someone's been following me oh don't ask me who I haven't really seen anyone I have you have who is he I don't know and I don't care it's take me a long time to find what I've wanted it's worth risks for hi dog oh hello hello Dave I well it's good to see you on I thought you were in solitary oh not anymore doc thanks to you that's good thanks again doc how you feeling Jim lot better sure glad we had that talk oh anytime anytime kid you know that thanks well [Applause] done hello slipy hello doc say there's something

getting me started on this you really like raising flowers don't you great but the next con that CS me fting and I'm going to split his head wide open oh say Doc wait a minute I almost forgot come here the Y W Rose slipy I think you've been seeing too many movies yeah see I wish you talk to the warden about that we had a double feature last week two prison pictures all right slipy all right all I know is that before you started working with the men I was afraid to walk across the yard without a couple of Tommy guns I sent so many cons in the solitary that the ones on the outside were getting Lonesome now my job is like taking a walk in the park oh just use a little common sense that's all and trouble with common sense it isn't common I wish you could drill a little of that into the uh parole board well there's nothing I like better but I'm afraid uh Psychiatry and politics don't mix very well you know Norton's leaving for the Army he's resigning as head of the board oh really who will I get to replace him there's only one logical man that I know of you me head the parole board why not look you have name [Music] [Applause] [Music] gate do I know him no is new here sent to us from Hartsville why he made five attempts to break out over there lead in two breaks who is he William wheeler manslaughter sentenced for 30 years which where man as old as he is means life of course ex Captain a decorated several times for bravery and action wheer huh I'd like to have a talk with him no don't waste your time with him doctor this wheeler is a bad character manslaughter is no casual crime you know you say he led two breaks yeah that's right well that's significant he's apparently able to influence others and that makes him important come in come in oh yes I saw what happened just toss him in the solitary but that sort of thing makes martys of them it only increases their influence every time I get into an argument with you I lose no not every time only when you're wrong that's what I say every time but I'll bet you a new hat you don't get anywhere with this wheeler I wear seven and 1/8 I'm Dr odway cigar I have to see you make that that break this afternoon that was a good try I was particularly interested in meeting you a man serving a sentence not for a crime that marks the habitual three-time loser like burglary or blackmail but but a crime of passion socalled a moment of uh emotional Insanity a man who otherwise would have never seen the inside of a prison a military officer who served with distinction in the first world war now our country wheelers in mine is at War again so he keeps trying to escape not realizing that there's no place for him in the Army but there is a way you can you can serve Captain wheeler get out get out sit down Captain wheeler where'd you get that fine military training who paid for it don't you think you owe your country something for that I can tell you how you can pay that debt but if you won't listen you're a thief and a thief who who wants to remain a thief you come in here with these secondhand sermons do you know what it is to be locked up like an animal 6 years of your life blotted out I've had more than 6 years of my life blotted out 10 years ago I had an accident my life began 10 years ago and you expect me to feel sorry for you wait a minute what can I do 1 2 3 4 2 3 4 2 3 4 2 3

out here at Rockford prison this afternoon this is really an army that's been drilling Behind These Walls the men are now lined up at the far corner of the yard waiting for a command to tackle this obstacle course that's been laid out for them William wheeler their Commander is with them his arm is raised and here they come [Applause] hey [Applause] it's wonderful warden in a month prisons all over the country will be following our example well thank you Governor but you know of course who's really responsible of course I [Music] do [Music] ladies and gentlemen his Excellency the governor this has been a thrilling afternoon ladies and gentlemen has made me feel very proud of our state and our penal institutions and I am proud too of the man who is responsible for what we've seen here

the State Board of paroles to Dr Robert odway hey it's a mighty nice hat is it new yeah take the careair with your Excellency and friends I am deeply grateful for the privilege of serving as as head of the parole board to you men and women I understand that all the inmates of the prisons are listening in this afternoon I want to say only one thing I want you to look upon me as a pal but not a pushover I give you my solemn word that all of you who deserve paroles will get them but those of you who don't deserve them and well each one of you knows that pretty well about himself those people

ghosts how soon is Miss feeling here not yet doctor but there's another patient waiting now oh we shouldn't have made another appointment for today well I didn't it's this gentleman's first visit well

if I get the right answers well that's not always so simple but we'll see what we can do how did you happen to come to me um mutual friend told me about you oh really who fell you fixed up in the nightclub oh he gave me a phony name and address why do you suppose he did that must have had a lapse of memory or something you know how that is yes what seems to be your trouble did you ever get the feeling that you've been someplace before that you met someone before but you ain't sure like like in a dream that's a frequent experience as a matter of fact I have that feeling about you now ain't that funny I have that same feeling about you yes but that isn't really what you came to see me about no not exactly did you ever get the feeling that that you being followed but you don't see nobody yes I have well you see I'm the opposite I get the feeling that I'm following somebody man I know but when I catch up to him he acts like he don't know me then all at once I remember he's supposed to be dead and I ain't so sure it's him it's uh got me all mixed up what do you want with this man $200,000 my door have you ever thought of going to the police uh-uh cops ain't no good for this why not

Beat It [Music] what does she want women what do they always want she wants to get married how did she get here I waited for her we got a steer clear Morgan if she spots anybody she'll call Copper what'd you get out of him kg is a cat I still can't figure out what he's bluffing what are we going to do I'm getting a feel if we don't get that dough out of him I'll make him like he's supposed to be yeah if we knew he's bluffing yeah otherwise not so hot Bright Eyes just gave me a better idea you boys know where we could get a hold of Pearl Adams Pearl gee I I haven't heard of her in years that's a great idea Pearl Adams yeah only first we got to find her so it is Morgan huh Nick always said you didn't know how to use a gun butt no man is perfect you telling me well what are we going to do about our friend we're still not 100% sure it's him I don't what to say so number one you put in for parole parole are you kidding with my record that's just the point brigh eyes if you get the parole we'll know exactly where we stand with Dr Robert J orway so on the basis of The Splendid record of your activity at Rockford prison the board has decided to recommend your immediate release on parole good luck wheeler thanks thanks Dr orway thank you thanks for what you did for those men well who's next Pearl Adams all right Pearl Adams that chair please I'm Dr rway pleased to meet you Doctor sit on Miss Adams please Miss Adams are there are there any facts you wish to add to what we already know it may have bearing on your appeal well as the politicians say the record speaks for itself there's the nordon payroll job $200,000 worth the record speaks for itself too well that $200,000 was never recovered according to the record that's right the guy who crossed us up and got away with that money was a smarter crook than any of us doctor well you rest of your record could hardly be called an improvement Miss Adams for all twice each time sent back for New offenses frankly I can see no basis for graning parole aren't you being kind of tough on a girl Dr Morgan uh I mean orway why did you call me Morgan the did I call you Morgan I guess I got mixed up Dr Morgan what's the matter with me orway why do you mix up the names of Morgan and orway I can't imagine why who is Phil Morgan how should I Know Thee the name just just popped into my head for no reason at all you had a reason for coming here and calling me Morgan what where'd you get that idea doc no convict with a record like yours would normally apply for parole what was your reason for coming here I don't know what you're talking about yes you do no I no honest I now who is Phil Morgan what what is this Dr hard way I minut just a minute Mr Martin who is Phil Morgan let me out of here sit down who is he I don't know you're lying who is he he's a crook a no good lying crook what was your connection with him me he thought he was too good for me but he was good enough to plan the biggest robbery this town ever saw the nordon perro job he was smart and smooth like you Doctor used his brains his fingers never touched any dirty work that was for us he made the plans the Dirty Work was left to mugs like Amy Nick and Joe am I fil Morgan what is the meaning of that am i Phil Morgan yes you're Phil Morgan uh gentlemen I I have no choice but to give you my resignation Bob Bob I know what happened today was a shock but well I I just can't pretend it didn't happen but you can't had a destroy your life your work you're needed at the parole board that's exactly the point how can I sit on the parole board half believing that I'm a criminal myself because you've proved your value suppose you do succeed in recovering your past are you a better more useful man for having found out don't you think I'd like to forget what happened today to play it safe to think only of what's ahead Bob yes Grayson I mean for us too I'll take my chances Bob I don't care look the date of the nordon robbery was one day before I was found on Queens Road one day I looked up the records the criminals involved were Pearl Adams Nick Ferris Joe Dylan alelo Casper Nick Joe Pearl alilio must been the one that came to see me that nordon payroll money has never been recovered that's why they're after me and they're going to keep after after me I've got to find them and if you do well I'm not sure uh details places anything might help perhaps even reenactment don't start this Bob please please for my sake he's a dangerous man he'll kill you I know it he who the man who came to your office I I spoke to him when where I I followed him what did he say nothing he Grace where'd you follow him to don't go Bob please don't go where was it Grace on 9th Avenue a bar it's called Frankie how would I know how she made out you'll find out next visiting day you know I I got a hunch that maybe Morgan don't remember you hit him hard enough hard enough but not good enough he should have stayed dead what's the matter Nick don't you want the 200 G's sure but no one is waiting around someplace and you can't get it just because he don't remember it drives nuts you're shaking the machine it's it's like a bad dream it's like when you dreamed of this there's money all around you it's in the gutter and it's on your plate and it's in your bed but you can't pick it up it it keeps slipping out of your hands Pearl don't get pared I'll I'll kill him let him be dead I want to talk to you I want to talk to you about $200,000 over here hi fellas sit down and have a drink come on hold it here go buy yourself a

problem as the jury is not to determine the guilt of Philip Morgan he has fully confessed to having stolen this money you are concerned Millie with recommending to the court what length of term Philip Morgan should serve but I would like to remind the jury that there are two men concerned in this trial one the defendant and the other an innocent victim one a self-confessed law breaker and worthy of little consideration or Mercy but the second of physician a respected member of his profession yet both of them AR occupying the same physical shell I don't envy you your task ladies and gentlemen I confess that if I were in your place I wouldn't know how to decide I only ask you to remember one thing in pronouncing the guilt of Philip Morgan you are sentencing Robert Ordway an innocent man to
