Kiss Tomorrow Goodbye Page #4

Big Brain starting to worry?

Okay, all set.

But try to keep him

out of this room.

This thing makes a little noise.

Mm-hmm.

Come on, open up.

Oh, Inspector...

You're still here, huh?

Well, uh...

I thought you'd be on

your way by this time.

Well, we're trying

to get away, sir.

Trying to locate

a car.

There's two

or three buses

leave here for

Arizona everyday.

I guess you don't appreciate

when a guy's good to you, huh?

I gave you one break.

Maybe I made

a mistake.

I wanted him to

leave, Inspector

but he said we didn't

have enough money.

Yeah, that was the

trouble, sir, no money.

You know,

you took all we had.

And I had to get in touch

with that friend of mine

who helped me pull

the Hartford job

and he let me have

a few hundred.

Yeah, quite a few.

It added up

to two grand.

Well, I see I can't keep

any secrets from you, sir.

Here it is.

$2,000 cash.

How much of this

will you let us keep?

Only a hundred, sir?

Oh, look, Inspector

uh, we're going

to Arizona, all right

but I was

just wondering...

This friend of mine-

who helped me pull

the market job-

told me about a payroll

that was a pushover.

A very big payroll.

Enough for all of us.

How big a payroll?

Oh, 25 or 30 grand.

I don't trust you.

Well, there's no reason

why you should

but if anything goes wrong

you know you can always

use that old stall

about having been

tipped off

and grabbing us red-handed

and all that.

You're an Inspector,

you can get away with that.

Oh, Inspector.

You'll have to excuse

the appearance

of the bedroom.

The maid hasn't

shown up yet.

Ralph...

Shh, shh.

What do you think,

John?

You're still doing the

thinking, Inspector.

I think we might

give it a whirl.

Anything you say.

If anything goes sour

with the heist

they'll look like sieves

when we get through

with them.

Where is this payroll job?

I don't know.

My friend knows.

Where's your friend now?

Well, uh, that

I don't know either.

But, uh, I think I know

where I can get

in touch with him.

Do you think

you can raise him

by 3:
00 tomorrow

afternoon?

Oh, yes,

I'm sure of that.

Well, after you've

located him

call me at headquarters.

If I'm not in,

just say Mr. Baker called.

I'll know what

that means.

Mr. Baker.

All right,

Inspector Weber.

Mr. Baker.

I'll remember.

I'll remember.

Yeah.

Did you get it?

Yeah, I got it.

And a slight case

of heart failure.

Let's hear it.

Oh, Inspector...

Still here, huh?

Well, uh...

I thought you'd be

on your way by this time.

Well, we're trying

to get away, sir.

Trying to locate a car.

There's two or three buses

leave here

for Arizona every day.

I gave you one break.

Maybe I made a mistake.

I wanted...

Well, now are

you satisfied, dear?

I'm satisfied

you're going

to get us

all killed.

There's my girl.

I wouldn't be

too sure.

Jinx,

where's a good lawyer?

Where's my

hundred bucks?

Your what?

The hundred bucks

Weber gave you back.

It's still mine.

Oh, yeah, that's right.

Well, uh, you know

I told you I was going

to invest your money

for you.

Well, this time

the investment

will take the form

of a new suit.

For who?

For me.

And now that that's over

we still need the

name of a good lawyer

to help us in this.

Doc Green.

Doc? He doesn't

sound like a lawyer.

He ain't.

He ain't a doctor, either.

And I'll tell you something

else he ain't.

He ain't

to be trusted.

Why should he be different?

"Dr. Darius Green,

Philosophic Guide

"Organon,Aristotle

"Novum Organum,Bacon

"Tertium Organum,Ouspensky...

You sure we've come

to the right place?

Oh, sure.

Oh, I forgot to tell you

though... he's nuts, too.

Mmm.

Aristotle, Bacon,

and Ouspensky.

Pretty fair parlay.

All attempts to purify

and elevate the mind

will assist you

in this attainment

and facilitate the approach

on the recurrence

of these happy interludes.

There are then,

different roads

by which the Zen

may be reached.

The love of beauty,

which exalts the poet.

That devotion

to the one...

Why don't we

wait outside?

Shh!

I like it here.

...conducting

to the height

above the actual

in particular

where we stand in

the immediate presence

of the infinite

who shines out as from

the depths of the soul.

Such was one of Plotinus'

letters to Phlakos.

And I especially

wanted you to hear it

because it coincides

with my own theory of knowledge.

Shall we concentrate upon that

perhaps, a minute or two?

My friends...

there is some

new literature

which Miss Dobson will

distribute as you leave.

And now, my friends,

I'm tired.

You must excuse me.

Come again.

Thank you.

Oh, he's very good.

Good night.

Good night.

Good night.

Thank you.

Good night.

Thank you.

They're going to have

trouble with that one.

Good night.

May I speak to Dr. Green

for a moment, please?

Oh, Dr. Green

never gives

personal interviews

after a reading.

He's usually

much too tired.

Well, unfortunately,

this matter can't wait.

It's much too vital.

If it weren't

I wouldn't think

of disturbing him.

Yeah, he knows me.

Just tell him...

I'm sure it'll be all right.

May I have your

names, please?

My name is Paul Murphy,

and this is Joseph Raynor.

I'll tell Dr. Green.

Thank you so much.

Uh, Doctor, this

is Paul Murphy

and Joseph Raynor.

How do you

do, sir?

What is it, gentlemen?

Oh, may we talk

to you alone?

Well, I have no secrets

from Miss Dobson.

Well, uh, this matter

is not concerned with

cosmic

consciousness.

There are no other matters

that I wished

to be consulted about.

May I be excused,

Dr. Green?

If you insist.

Good night, Doctor.

Good night, my dear.

How dare you come here.

How dare you!

Easy, Doctor, easy.

I refuse to have

anything to do

with you.

That life

for me is over.

I shall heal

no more bodies.

I shall heal

only minds.

There's no body to heal.

All we want is a name.

We've been looking

for a lawyer

of the right kind

and we didn't know

where to go.

Got to the

classified section

of the telephone book

and look under "lawyers."

Doc, let's be reasonable

about this.

Now, you've worked

with the mob.

You must know someone.

Oh, that was years ago.

Two years ago.

Just two.

Doc, you don't want

to be bothered

with us anymore,

do you?

No.

Well, then,

give us a name.

Try Keith Mandon.

Cherokee Mandon.

He's an evil man, too.

Thanks.

The only way

you can thank me

is not to come here again.

Well, anyway,

Doc...

it's nice to see

you've reformed.

Dr. Dobson,

I presume.

Mr. Murphy.

Was your interview satisfactory?

Oh, very.

Now that I

presumed once

may I presume again?

In what way?

Well, uh, we are

badly in need

of a phone booth

and we seem to be

out of the range

of phone booths

and I wonder if

you would drop us

at a drugstore.

I'm afraid I don't know you,

Mr. Murphy.

Don't forget,

Miss Dobson

I don't know you,

either.

Get in.

This is very nice of you.

Oh, not at all.

What did you think
