when recovered from
light-fingered gentleman?
Why-Why, yes.
Are positive $10,000 not missing?
What do you mean?
Paper money band indicate theft.
Very clever questioning, Mr. Chan.
Found money band in your cabin.
- Explain please.
- I'm sorry. I can't explain that.
Somebody did take $10,000 of that money
and hid it in Miss Hayes' cabin.
They were trying to frame her,
and I think-
Say, where's Mrs. Wayne?
Sorry.
Must conduct inquiry without her.
What?
She's in it as much as the rest of us.
Let Mr. Chan handle this. Mrs. Wayne
had no connection with this case.
Excuse please.
You experience great friendship
for absent lady?
Why, not especially, no.
Then please explain why you permit her
I don't know
what you're talking about.
Have reason to believe opposite.
May examine lady's passport?
Surely.
There you are.
I don't want you to misunderstand this...
but she told me she was
very nervous and very worried...
and she was just getting a divorce,
and she wanted to travel quietly.
I saw no reason to refuse her request.
L-
Most understandable.
Passport give lady's
real name as Hillman.
Passport give lady's
real name as Hillman.
- Hillman? Why, that was-
- Name of murdered man?
Why, uh, yes.
Did not know Mrs. Wayne
was wife of same?
No. All I know is I was supposed
Please explain
complete nature of errand.
I can't.
It was confidential business.
You'd better talk, Miss Hayes.
It's bound to come out sooner or later.
They were getting a divorce.
He wanted the money out of China...
to avoid a property settlement.
Leave her alone!
Get Mrs. Wayne or Hillman...
whatever her name is, up here
and make her explain!
Regret impossibility.
Unfortunate lady murdered.
- Murdered?
- Who killed her?
I told you there was
An unusually interesting case,
Mr. Chan.
Two murders,
and not a single witness.
Contradiction please.
Have one silent witness.
Murder gun with fingerprints
of criminal reposing on handle...
most likely duplicate
of same fingerprints now in this room.
Are you going to fingerprint all of us?
All except Dr. Cardigan...
who already kindly
donate own fingerprints.
- You have ink pad?
- Sure, Pop.
Hello. Who?
Who? Oh, we're busy.
Call back later.
Hello! What's that?
Wing Foo?
- I never heard of him. I don't know.
- No, please. For me.
- Hello?
- Honorable father-in-law?
- Yes.
- I wish to report that Ling is very restless.
So is prospective grandparent.
Stork evidently fly
wrong course to Honolulu.
Ling has lost all desire for watermelon
and now demands gumdrops.
- Wing Foo, Doctor says to come quick!
- Excuse me!
Good-bye!
Tell her to wait for me!
Be there in 15 minutes! Hello!
Hello!
Who-Who-Who did that?
- Turn on those lights!
- Hey, you guys!
- I got him, Pop! I got him!
- You got who?
- Come on! Get in there!
- Mr. Chan, the gun is gone!
Am aware of same.
- What a break for somebody.
- Now you never can prove who the murderer was.
Correction please.
Murderer identified self.
Is now safely imprisoned.
- Imprisoned?
- Where?
Inside camera.
Guilty one took own picture
while removing gun from desk.
Dr. Cardigan...
be so kind as to develop film
with utmost speed?
Certainly.
Jimmy.
Keep watchful eye on doctor.
Okay, Pop.
- Turn that light off, please.
- Y-Yes, sir.
- It's coming up now.
- Good.
Wait a minute!
Pop, here it is!
Here is picture of guilty person,
Captain Johnson.
It's the captain!
Denial is useless.
Photograph does not lie.
Only you and Mrs. Wayne aware
Miss Hayes carry large sum to Honolulu.
Mrs. Wayne wanted to prevent husband
from receiving same.
Money being entrusted
to your safekeeping...
you saw chance to obtain
huge fortune for yourself.
Captain Johnson shot
Mrs. Wayne's husband...
when he came aboard ship
and hid money in lifeboat...
where it was discovered
by light-fingered gentleman.
He then tried to cover trail...
on Dr. Cardigan...
and portion of money
in Miss Hayes' cabin.
Suddenly, Mrs. Wayne
become overly suspicious.
So he strangled her with scarf...
tied in sailor's knot.
Only positive clue...
was gun used in attempt
upon life of humble self.
But fingerprints on gun all smudged,
and so useless...
making necessary trick with camera...
loaned by strange
but most helpful Dr. Cardigan.
So sorry, Captain Johnson.
- Well, I guess me and McCoy can go, huh?
- Yes, to jail with Captain.
What a wonderful contribution to science
your brain would make, Mr. Chan.
Thank you so much,
but for present...
would prefer to keep same
for own use.
What a pity.
Lieutenant Chan speaking.
Please exercise self-control.
It's a boy, Pop!
It's a boy!
- Who's he talking to?
- I get it. He's having a baby.
Can you hear 'im, Pop?
Congratulations, Mr. Chan.
Contradiction please.
In present case,
am only innocent bystander.
Coochie, coochie, coochie,
coochie, coochie!
