Hey, watch it, Dave.
Don't mix up the pieces.
Ritchie, you old buzzard.
I didn't know you were a chess player.
It's like I've been telling you, Dave.
You're not the only thinker around here.
It's nothing.
Just a hobby, you know?
Well, wait. Wait a minute.
I think this is interesting.
Who do you play with?
Well, late at night when I'm here by
myself and things are pretty slow, l--
Well, you gotta do something.
You oughta take up chess.
Loosen up your gray matter a little.
I guess I'd better.
You'll have to teach me, Ritchie.
Sure, Dave.
Anytime.
Dave, Doc Hallen's
been killed.
- Doc Hallen? What happened?
- You gotta come now !
Wait a minute, Steve.
Tell us what happened.
I'm trying to tell you.
Now this thing, it killed the doc.
What was it?
Out with it, kid.
Well, it's
kind of like a ma--
It's kind of like a mass that
keeps getting bigger and bigger.
- Come on, Steve, make sense.
- I know, I know.
Look, Dave, you gotta see this thing
to believe what I'm telling you.
Maybe the thing you saw
was a... monster ?
Yeah, maybe it was.
I don't know.
Hold on, Jim.
Now, what is it, Steve?
A little while ago it was driving
backwards, and now it's monsters.
Look, he's not
making it up, Dave. Honest.
Dave, I'm not kidding.
Come on over to the doc's.
You can see it for yourself.
You're crazy if you go.
Can't you see it's a gag?
He says Doc Hallen's dead, Jim.
We've got to check it out.
Let's go.
Ritchie, you mind the store.
Dave, listen--
[ Continues, Indistinct ]
[ Engine Starts, Car Drives Off ]
East Cornwall, Downingtown H.Q
[ Man On Radio ]
Downingtown, East Cornwall H.Q.
Q to K-2.
Do I read you right?
Q to K-2?
Roger.
K-9 to KB-5.
Shucks.
"This office will be closed
all day Saturday. Dr. Hallen."
- Wait a minute.
- What's the matter ?
waiting for you.
- Well, we'll have to take
that chance, won't we?
- I'm not kidding.
Dr. Hallen?
Dr. Hallen?
Hmm. Seems to be
You got your light?
[ Dave ]
Everything looks okay.
There. I think this
is the room I saw him in.
- It's locked.
- I'll see if I can find
a key that'll work.
No, the key's already here.
It's been locked from the inside.
Hello?
Who's in there?
Better go around and see
if the window's unlocked.
If it isn't, break the glass,
come in and unlock the door.
- All right.
- You're not gonna let him do that.
Now, don't worry, Steve. Sergeant Bert
knows how to handle himself.
And this is the only way
to get to the bottom of this.
- I'll see if I can find the fuse box.
- Okay.
Steve, I wonder where
the little dog is.
Yeah.
What do you think
happened to him?
I don't know.
Well, that's more like it.
This must have been
what blew the fuse.
[ Glass Shattering ]
Jim?
Wait till you get a load
of this mess !
[ Dave Whistles ]
Ohh.
What about this, Steve?
I don't know, Dave.
But I know I saw the doc.
All right, kid, cut the act.
-I don't know.
-All of a sudden, your mind is a blank?
- No.
- Steve, are you sure this is the room?
Yes, I'm sure of it.
This has been fired.
But I haven't seen
any shot marks around anyplace.
Let me tell you
what happened, kid.
You and whoever else
was in on this thought you'd
put one over on the police.
- So you break in here,
you mess the place up--
- Wait a minute, Jim.
The kids couldn't have done this.
You saw for yourself.
The window was locked from the inside,
and so was the door.
They rigged it with string. It's part
of their plan to make us look silly.
pretty well by yourself, Sergeant.
Steve, was there
anybody else with you?
No.
over on Morgan Street?
Those kids had nothing
to do with this.
- Who were they ?
- Why, it was Tony and Mooch.
Those kids? Well, there's
They're just the kind of kids
to pull a trick like this.
- But this time they've gone too far.
- What goes on out here?
- Land's sakes !
- What are you doing here, Mrs. Porter ?
Boy oh boy oh boy ! Wait till Doctor
gets back and sees this !
- Back from where?
- Lieutenant, was it burglars?
We don't know yet.
Where is Dr. Hallen?
Johnsonville.
A medical convention.
You know, I told him this would
happen one of these days,
the way he leaves
everything unlocked.
Of course, it was my fault too.
He asked me to keep an eye on the place.
But that's not true, Dave.
He never left.
[ Scoffs ]
I don't think I've had the pleasure.
This is Steve Andrews,
Mrs. Porter.
got into some trouble here tonight.
No, sir ! The doctor
don't know anything about this.
He called me
just before he left.
He didn't leave. Look, Dave,
I'll bet his car is still in the garage.
Might be. Doctor sometimes
goes in somebody else's car.
Dr. Gilpen
from over in Groverton.
-Jim, call Dr. Gilpen.
- Right.
- He won't be home.
-Just checking.
Mrs. Porter, did you hear
any gunshots tonight?
I sure did !
Tonight and every other night.
The people downstairs have those
old movies on their television.
There's always
some shooting or screaming.
Whoever this thief was, he didn't have
to tear up the place like this.
I feel terrible.
Wait a minute, Mrs. Porter.
I don't want this touched.
Well, I don't want the doctor
to come back tomorrow and find
the place like this.
- It's bad enough
the window's broke and all.
- But, Mrs. Porter--
Now, you boys have your work
to do, and I have mine.
There's a criminal walking
around out there free as a bird.
You go get him.
Let me clean up here.
Mrs. Porter,
you don't understand.
We may want to check here
for fingerprints later.
Dr. Gilpen's on his way
to Johnsonville.
Did he pick up Dr. Hallen?
I spoke with Mrs. Gilpen, and she said
that Dr. Hallen had called around 11:00,
just after her husband left, but
she thought they were going together.
in Johnsonville?
- I didn't ask her that.
St.John's Hotel.
That's where the doctor usually stays.
Well, they should be there
in a couple of hours.
We'll leave word to have him call us
when he checks in.
Can't I just dust
around the fingerprints?
Tomorrow.
Well, let's go, kids.
Dave, this is all wrong.
All right, kid, the show's over.
It was a cute act, but this time
it didn't work.
This locked door business
really hung you.
If everything happened like
you said, where's the doctor ?
And where is this old man?
And where is the big, bad monster ?
I don't know.
Hand me that small
hammer, will ya?
- Why don't you finish that tomorrow?
- I ain't gonna be here.
I'm goin' on a huntin' trip.
I didn't know you was a hunter.
Neither did I.
We got a little cabin
up in the south woods, the boys and me.
And I'm tellin' you, Marty boy,
we're goin' up there this weekend,
and I'm gonna get so roarin',
stinkin', no-good drunk...
