Johnson such a nice lady how we gonna break this to her this is impossible what's impossible there's nobody in here then where is he look around and see if he was thrown clear can you see the license number no but the year and the maker right there's no point in looking for him around here Houdini couldn't have gotten out of this thing how did you find this Callie mrs. Johnston said that when he left on Wednesday morning he was low on gas so I went to the station he usually goes too and the attendant remembered him because he was in such a hurry to get to Eastwick field Eastwick field yeah that's right that wreck down there no human being could have crawled out of it that means there was no one in the car when it went over take a look at these I noticed him when we pulled up he's our leading from Eastwick field not to it at Haskell told us that Johnson never got there is that Lou Haskell yeah did you know him well I keep my jet star at Eastwick field and it was your plane we saw yesterday yeah at least it from Haskell he was very reluctant to let us go inside of it you can take a look around anytime you want I don't see what that's got to do with Dick's disappearance that's exactly what we want to find out it's no problem mr. Haskell wasn't exactly enthusiastic about his comeback any the tation what's my plane okay say it's no big deal why don't we go over there right now it's gonna be dark before we get there well that's even better Haskell won't be there I'll tell you what guys I want to go back to the office and bring your dad up-to-date okay bye-bye looks locked Mikey I told you I don't know what you guys expect to accomplish here there's no problem getting in there must be a light switch around here someplace here's the flashlight you never make it to the office a gent back up slowly it's comforting to know I'm so well-guarded it is this is some setup yeah it's cozy I like to travel on style usually because I don't like the place we left not sure about where we're headed Joe look at this this John says to Candice guy's name on it this proves that Johnston was here not necessarily could have left it a couple weeks ago that's possible except for this well how'd this get here this hasn't been released yet factor only a half a dozen have made a few days ago how many other people have this cassette Tony well I've got to him I gave your father one and I sent one to Richard Johnston I wanted his opinion on the sound quality then Johnston was here and that means Haskell lied to us why would he do that I don't know yet I'll check it for prints this is the police come out of that airplane brought out we'd be delighted remember we don't want to alarm Haskell so don't say anything Archie I was just showing my friends the Hardy Boys the plane the dogs must have set off the alarm I know you think that's why they're here the question is is that why they think they're here now you wouldn't know anything about that car that went over the cliff would you the one that Callie told me about hmm or the tire tracks the lead in this direction chief you know you're always telling us not to come to you without hard facts yeah well we don't have any thanks for your help chief nice talk why is it that even when they do what I say I still figure they're putting one over on me take a look at this that's the fingerprint I got off the silver cigarette-case and mrs. Johnston sent over nobody's touched it since her husband left take a look at that I got that off the cassette that belongs to Tony Eagle but take a look at this got that off the cassette - that proves that Johnson was at the airport and on the plane which proves that Haskell lied to us you know Johnson may have more of a connection to Tony Eagle than Tony's led us to believe we don't think Tony has anything to do with Johnson disappearance do you I'm just examining all the possibilities Joe well one thing's for sure what's that we were gonna be at that concert tomorrow now the main thing is to know the difference between someone who's just here having a good time and someone who could cause trouble if any of you have someone in your area that you think could be a problem before you do anything alert me or one of the uniformed officers as to address you'll all be wearing street clothes as though you're a part of the audience oh excuse me horny boys I got it hi sorry to interrupt it's Tony eagle here yeah she's downstairs in his dressing room be sure you tell the guard that I said it's okay you'll all be wearing ordinary street clothes I told you wanted it today what's your rush you got a concert tonight there's no rush I've been asking you for months you've always got some kind of excuse I understand you man I really don't I'm handling your finances your gigs for what five years now you done pretty good it sounds like you don't trust me that's not what I said Carl I want to know how much money I've gotten where it is a very rich guy thanks to me the money's in stocks bonds real estate and don't forget insurance insurance I've got more coverage than the Trade Center look when you hired me you said I'm a singer I don't want to worry about business you handle the finances you sign the checks you pay the bills you didn't want to be bothered well I want to be bothered I want to see it in black and white and I want it before I take off for London in the morning you got it man no problems there's one other thing Richard Johnson he's supposed to be here to set up the sound equipment he hasn't been seen for days do you try to get in touch with you that for a couple of weeks when you talk to him I was he fine said he'd be here tonight look her if there's nothing else man I'm having some promo problems on pretty girls business Carl yeah brain copy of our contract to okay why do you want a copy of your contract just want to see it that's all sure we've got some news can I talk to you guys on the way I'm kind of late for rehearsal matched a print of Johnston's to one of the ones we got off the casella's yeah that puts him in the plane within the last few days well I'll talk to Haskell before the concert tonight you guys are right something's going on somehow I'm involved gotta find a connection listen I gotta go to work I'll talk to you later okay yeah okay you ready yeah let's do it in a bar uptown we were trying to get up the cab pulling us down another sound Johnston nice to finally meet you face-to-face I think we have something important we just out the wrecking yard who saw it was left of a car it doesn't make sense cars all twisted up all I could think about was dick inside it no he couldn't have been inside mrs.
