Yes, the one with the woman in chains.

And then add the following

news item. Here's the text...

Elias has disappeared.

Put three men on it.

The guy who calls himself Elias,

where is hiding?

Answer carefully. The man who

just arrived from Paris.

Police.

STOP PRESS.

PROSTITUTE STRANGLED BY MANIAC.

EVE WITH HER SENSATIONAL

NEW ACT:
SLAVE GIRL.

He went into the Cabaret Eve.

"Ladies and gentlemen,

welcome, and we wish you

a good trip

which will take us 2 hours

and 30 minutes,

travelling at 124 km per hour."

"Ladies and gentlemen,

the Trans-Europ-Express

from Paris is arriving at

platform No 3

and will be leaving immediately

for Amsterdam."

DOUBLE CRIME IN ANTWERP.

involved with diamonds here.

In any case it's impossible.

Those true stories

are always boring.
