Hello?Yes, this is the Falcon speaking.Oh, Twilight.I'm glad you called. we'll have to have a rain check, Angel.Army intelligence is flying me to Athens, Greece.Yeah.
Seems some boy over there is proud of his marksmanship, and they figure I'll give him something to shoot at.Once again, the National Broadcasting Company brings you the transcribed Adventures of the Falcon, starring Les Damon.
The Adventures of the Falcon, dedicated to private investigators everywhere. Those hard-hitting detectives who, like Mike Waring, risk their lives to aid law enforcement agencies.So join him now when the Falken solves the case of the gorgeous Greek.
The boy who first gave out with the line, appearances can be deceiving, had something there.Has a case in point?I'd like you to meet Theodoros Gunnariou. There was a chubby little character who just walked into the cafe Olympia in Athens.
To look at him as he makes his way to a table in the corner, you'd think, here was a man who wouldn't hurt a fly.And you'd be right, which puts the local fly the way ahead of his fellow men.
Ah, Nicholas, my good friend, it's a great pleasure for us to see you.Unfortunately, I can't say the same. You know this isn't wise, Gennario.Suppose the police see us together.So?
Who else knows Nicholas Venizelos is number one man in Communist Party in all Greece?A position you obviously feel much better qualified to hold.Oh, you are wrong, Nicholas.I think you are best man for a job.
I once tell Comrade Molotov, if it can help the party, then Nicholas Venizelos would cut off his hand up to here.Never mind, Gennario.Did you see Iris Richards?Oh, yes. We have a very nice talk.She knows why she was brought to Athens?Of course.
For to become good friends with General Vigliani. Well, our Bulgarian comrades would like to know why they weren't advised that Greece would defend the island of Gama from their attacks.They find out different, huh?
The situation seems to afford you some amusement?Well, after all, I'm Greek.So am I. Oh, it's different for you, Nicholas.Your whole family is living in England for a long time.I'm still a Greek.But I'm a communist first.
Why didn't Iris inform us of General Liviani's plans?How did she know when she has not seen him?Why not? He was interested in her?
Yes, but she's not interested in him.
What?Oh, you must not be too hard on girl, Nicholas, but she is in love.That isn't funny, Gennario.No, it's very sad, but love is feeling very difficult to control.She used to give up this man at once.I say this to her, but she finds it very hard.
Well, if Comrade Richard hasn't enough self-discipline to give him up, we'll have to do it for her.Get rid of him.Get rid of him? You seem to take a strange delight in misunderstanding me, Benario.You don't understand, Nicolas.
To get rid of this young man is a very difficult problem.This is not a boy we can drop in the Mediterranean and nobody will ask questions.I don't care who he is.I want it done.Then maybe you do it yourself.You have the chance.
What are you talking about?This young fellow Iris fell in love with is your brother, George.What?Oh, she's real crazy. Iris.I will.Oh, I'm so happy.Imagine five years I know you and this is first idea you take from Guarnario.
Maybe someday I give you some more.
I wonder if you could spare me a few minutes.I'm Nicholas and as they look.Obviously you're familiar with the name of this thing.Thank you.Very lovely sweet I like it.
All right Mr Venezuela let's get on with it.You came here for a reason.
Naturally.I understand you're in love with my brother, George.
Where do you understand that from?
The usual reliable source.Have I been misinformed?
You care a great deal for him.
More than anything else in the world.You know, oddly enough, I believe you.I'm overwhelmed.
I'd like to tell you a little about our family.
Don't bother.George has already briefed me.Why don't you leave him alone?
You must understand that my brother is very young he's twenty nine he's still a child in many ways maybe that's because you never gave him a chance to grow up but I'm sure should explain.
I'm very fond of George and he hates you that's not true you better open your eyes Mr Benazelos he can't stand you you've interfered with everything in his life someone had to this situation proves it meaning I'm not good enough for him.
If you prefer to believe that, then it's your privilege, but... I order you to give him up.
Oh, you've got the wrong girl.
On the contrary, I've got the right one.Does George know you're a common-form agent?
That you're in Greece on party business?
Your contact here is Theodora Scenario.
Why, you... You're a comrade yourself.
My party card bears the name of Paul Papalut.
Naturally.Denario is the only one in Greece who knows.The party is outlawed here.
Please, comrade, may I say something?
You couldn't possibly.You were sent here on an important mission.To date, you have betrayed their trust.I feel my brother is responsible.You are never to see him again.Is that understood? I ask you something, Iris.
That you were just using him to pass the time of day.
No.No, I... I can't do it.
And I say you will.Good day, comrade.I know I can depend on you to fulfill your obligations.
I guess we better start looking for a parking place.Well I'd love to drive you right into the Acropolis but unfortunately the road hasn't been paid in five hundred B.C.Shall we get her.
Wait a minute George.There's something I want to tell you.
Now darling I'm sure it's not that serious.
Yes it is.I'm not seeing you anymore.I'm not clowning George.
All right dear I give up.What's the joke.
But you couldn't possibly mean that.
No.You're in love with me.
Well, of all the conceited, egotistical males, what have you got that makes you think you're so special?
No, but your attitude shows it.Sure, you may be hot stuff here in Greece, but I come from a big country, honey.Guys like you are a dime a dozen on every street corner.
You don't mean that, Iris.
You want to bet?But you told me... I never had it so good.
You didn't believe me did you yes I did you put that I guess your brother was right my brother well well didn't you tell me that he said you needed a nurse may have Nicholas been up to see you.
Know you're lying all right so I am yeah yeah he was up to see me what did he say well it wasn't what he said it was what he did. He gave me a check for twenty thousand drachmas.
You didn't take it.Now, baby, be reasonable.A girl's got to look out for herself.You can't mean that, Iris.
Heaven's sake, what did it take to convince you?Maybe I should have made a tape recording of the dialogue.Get this and get it straight, Mr. Venizelos.You never meant a thing in my young life.You couldn't possibly.
And stop irising me.I know my name.I've had it long enough.Now, will you take me back to the hotel?
Oh, good evening, Mr. George.Good evening, Paul.Is my brother home?No, sir.He went out right after dinner.Have you any idea where I can find him?I'm afraid not, sir.Well, did he say anything about... Oh, uh, shall I... No, no, I'll answer this.
This is Scunario.How are you, my friend?
Theodore Scunario. Oh, well, you have the... I just see, Comrade Iris.I understand everything is worked out fine.
What's the matter?You can't talk now?
No, no, just a moment.Paul?
Would you mind leaving me alone?
Thank you.I'm sorry, Gunnario.What were you saying?
It's not important.I just called to congratulate you.I see now Moscow is tight. Moscow when they make you head of the party.Head of the party.
It's just that I've been asleep and I'm still rather groggy Oh I'm sorry.
It's better I don't call her.
Oh I'd never forgive myself if I'd missed this.Now if you'll excuse me Granario I'll hang up.I've got one or two calls of my own I'd like to make.
Have I the pleasure of speaking with Mr. Michael Waring?
If that's your idea of pleasure.Who is this?
I'm afraid my name won't mean much to you.It's George Venizelos.
Yes, your embassy suggested I get in touch with you.
I believe the shoe was on the other foot.I'd like to do something for you.You're aware that the Communist Party is outlawed in Greece?
Well, suppose I told you that the number one man is right here in Athens. What would you say to that?
Well, the first thing I'd say is, what's his name?
I take it, then, you're interested.
Interested is hardly the word.
Well, I live at 14 Tricoupas.
Tricoupas.That's the street right near the monument to Byron, isn't it?
That's the one.Can I expect you at 10?
You wouldn't want to make it early, huh?
Try to be patient, Mr. Waring.After all, you chaps have been looking for this fellow for years.A few hours, more or less, shouldn't matter.I'll see you at 10. It's the wedding.That's right.In just a moment.Come in.I'm George Venizelos.
I'll take it as much.May I take your coat?Don't bother.I don't think I'll be staying long.Cigarette?I'll stick to my own brand if you don't mind.Thanks.Funny.You look nothing like I had imagined.Does anybody?
Well, I only meant when I was in the States some years back, I heard a great deal about the falcon.I rather fancied he'd be tall and lean. Maybe I'm not the Falcon, then.What?That's right.I'm not Mike Waring.Then... who are you?Eddie Welch.
Eddie Welch?Did Waring... Send me?Perish, forbid.I'm here strictly on my own.Let this be a lesson to you, Georgie.Next time you make a phone call, make sure it don't go through a hotel switchboard.
Like a radio show, you never can tell who's listening.
On the highways, speed is the number one killer.It takes more than half of the lives lost in traffic accidents in many states.Last year, speeding drivers caused 15,000 deaths in the United States.
That year, more than 500,000 persons were injured in automobile accidents blamed on excessive speed.That's the bloody price tag on too much speed, the cost that you may pay sooner or later for a few minutes saved by speeding.
Slow down for safety's sake, and remember,
drive as though your life depends on it it does bow back to the adventures of the falcons now that's the way it goes sometimes apparently this wasn't george's day it may have started badly enough when iris gave him the air but eddie welch sure ended it for him with a bang
But I knew none of this when I got out of the cab in front of 14 Tri-Coopers.I never even noticed the official-looking car parked at the curb.I guess I was asleep.But the boy who answered the door certainly opened my eyes.Yes, please?
I'm looking for George Venizelos.On your name?Mike Waring.I'll be so good as to enter. Maybe I better not.Pardon?

so i don't want to have a go and i'm going to buy a man the blue coat and brass buttons better i could have said that that'd make me to introduce myself i am and i know i'll come and do it lieutenant in his mind at this point i was afraid of that now where we go right here uh... that you are going to do it you did not know him only the voice on the phone uh... may i allow me or about those
Take three men and interview the neighbor.
All right.You, you, you, come with me.
Well, seen enough?Too much.Apparently he knew what he was talking about.Pardon?He called me a couple of hours ago at my hotel.The American embassy had referred him to me.
Well, he claimed he knew the identity of the number one boy in the Communist underground here.That's ridiculous.Someone was real anxious to shut him up.Did he have any family?Just a brother.What's his name?
nicole has been failed but i could talk to him i do not imagine it would do any good there you never know and i should try i'll be seeing you lieutenant i wish there was some way i could help with the wedding but i'm afraid there isn't much i can tell you i don't ever know mr venezuela's was your brother a communist what well he claimed he knew the identity of the head man in the party here and
has to be in george's idea of a joke believe me he took absolutely don't listen politics on what you think was the motive for his murder robbery according to the police there was no thing taken from his apartment perhaps burglars right now that's possible in but let's look at another how did you get along you know i'd be within my rights states none of your business but somehow i've got a great deal of confidence in you know i appreciate that george and i never got along too well i suppose it was all my fault
I insisted on treating him as a child.And naturally, he resented her.Naturally.I never realized how much until recently.How did you find out?Through a mutual acquaintance.Iris Richards?Where did you learn about her?The lieutenant, Kumondoris.
You think she might know anything about his murder?Of course not.Still, I think we ought to have a talk.I'd rather you didn't, old man.You and your brother weren't rivals for her affections.Don't be ridiculous. Why do you object to my seeing her?
Because there's nothing to be gained by it.You never can tell.Nevertheless, I forbid you to see her.You, uh, forbid me?Yes.You sound like you're used to giving orders.I am.What happens when they're not obeyed?That's a very good question, Willing.
And if you insist on seeing Iris, you'll have the opportunity of finding the answer for yourself.I rather doubt whether you'll enjoy making the discovery.
Oh, and you think this is old home week?
The name is Waring, Mike Waring.
I'm a friend of George Venizelos.
Well, if George sent you over to plead his case, he's wasting his time.
Oh, yeah, yeah, sure.So may I come in?
It won't do you any good.
Won't do me any harm, either.
Not so hot.He'll get over it.I kind of doubt that, Iris.You never get over his kind of trouble.
He's a fool.He'll find a million other girls.
Sure he will.He's just a kid.
You sound like his brother, Nicholas, now.
Something tells me you were in love with the boy.
Why'd you see so much of him?
A girl's got to have something to do in a place like this.
Then he meant nothing to you?
Not a single solitary thing.
Well, then you won't be interested in the fact that he was murdered.
Yeah, he was shot to death last night at a quarter to ten.
Where is he?Where is he?I've got to see him.
I thought he didn't mean anything to you.
Because I couldn't stand him.
Why did you give him up, Iris?Did Nicholas have anything to do with it?
How many times must I tell you?He didn't mean a thing to me.Not a thing. How will you get out of here and leave me alone?
Ah, Nicholas, my good friend.What are you doing here, Gennario?I just hear about your brothers making me for to be very unhappy.
Come in.Thank you.I... Can I tell you what is in my heart, Nicholas? I know how you feel about Georgie.Who do you think does such an awful thing?
I wish I knew.Maybe that fellow Michael Waring.Find out, eh?Who told you about Waring?Oh, it's little.I don't know.It was up to C.I.R.I.S.Did you tell him anything?Not Comrade Richards.
She feel about party like you do.
It's like I tell you on the phone yesterday.You told me on the phone?Sure, when I speak to you around seven at the club.Where did you call me?Here.
i wasn't even home at the time it's impossible to fill it up to have exactly the same exit go on uh... uh... and much the made me think you certainly did you spoke to george what did you tell it wouldn't nothing they could have stayed at just that how you feel uh... business you're lying you must have mentioned something about the party and on that little stupid blundering
You should never do this to Gennario.I forgive you because you are upset.
Sure, Nicholas.I know I have been a great disappointment to you, but maybe I can make up for it.You see, if I don't gonna try.
them allowing do i know you know if you don't it's not my fault i'm eddie welch eddie welch would you like to come in try and keep me out i assume that gun is loaded and i wouldn't dare just flop anywhere that's over pretty good thanks and suppose you said right here where i can keep an eye on him anything to oblige no friend so we are eddie welch
It registered very definitely you're a trigger man for the C.P.What are you doing in Athens I'm crazy about ruins I thought you made your own pretty good not very.
Did you take care of George Venezuela what do you think I think yes what bothers me is who gave you your orders tell you what I'll do I didn't make a deal you make me a deal well occasionally you have to bargain with rats you know good.What's matter.
Nothing you're sick get back I just want to help me say get back or you know what I'm on drop it drop it I'll break your arm I mean it I think.
Right now who sent you around here get a doctor who sent you around Eddie please please give me a doc I'm on fire so you've been poisoned dirty loud who did it Eddie come on you want to get even don't you know good.Eddie.Eddie.Hello operator.
with a dead body in my room.I'd like it removed.Maybe room service can help me out.Most of us are looking forward to the Labor Day weekend and planning to spend it out of town, and that's fine for most of us.
But we should always keep in mind that these long weekend holidays are often tragic times for some of us who start out gaily to enjoy them.More than 1,300 American families will lose one or more of their loved ones in accidents on the highways.
at all times and particularly on long holiday weekends drive as though your life depends on it it does now back to the adventures of the falcon well i guess it only goes to prove you can't believe the ads near the hotel olympia boasted of their deluxe service yet when eddie welch keeled over in my room and i buzzed the operator for room service
It was twenty minutes before someone knocked on my door, and when I opened it, there stood Lieutenant Emmanuel Kumandoris.Naturally, I was disappointed.
Ah, Mr. Waring, we meet again.
Don't blame me, Lieutenant.The gentleman is a friend of yours?Him?Heaven forbid, that's Eddie Welch.What was he doing here?Well, I've got an unpleasant idea.He came over to give me a treatment.A treatment?The same kind he gave George Venizelos.
You feel he was responsible for the murder?He practically admitted it to me.Why should he? But he figured he had nothing to lose.He was going to put me away, too.And what happened?Well, he didn't watch his diet.He was poisoned.Ridiculous.
Just turn him over and take a sniff.Need any help?No, I can manage.Thank you.Strychnine.That's what it is.I do not understand.Well, my guess is that the same party who ordered him to kill George Venizelos hated loose ends.
So Eddie was sent around to take care of me.Then why was he poisoned?Because Eddie himself was a loose end.
i guess it was hope that he would get to me before the threatening to the fact lucky for me his timing was off but uh... why wasn't going to murder well i hate to use the phrase lieutenant but it fits it was all the communist plot you know who was responsible i've got a pretty good idea but unfair to all concerned i feel his brother nicholas should be the first to know i hope you appreciate the honor
Hello Nicholas.It was Comrade Iris the last time we met.
I thought the situation warranted it.Is Comrade Guarnario here?
I took the liberty of telling him you wanted to see him.Sit down.
Do you know what you're doing?
Yeah.It's not a switch.I'm giving the orders now.It's funny what a little gun can do for your morale.
You regret this, comrade.
I can assure you that the papal authorities are going to... Oh, please don't threaten me with party discipline.I've had all of that.I can stand.For eight years, every minute of my time belonged to the party.
For eight years, I did everything they told me without questioning.They were going to make a better world.We're just between us girls, comrade.I haven't seen one soul lay ever helped. But it took your brother's murder to open my eyes.
The poor kid... Oh, I guess that's Comrade Bonario.
By all means.We couldn't possibly proceed without him.
Just a moment.Hello, Nicholas.Mr. Welling.I think you know Lieutenant.Well, if it isn't Iris Richards.
That wouldn't be a gun you're holding.
Yeah I guess it would put it away into this man as a police lieutenant I must warn you you're young lady don't bother just sit down over there really miss go on all of you if you're going to behave like this Iris I'm not going to let you in on my surprise what are you talking about I know the motive for George's murder but accidentally George learned who was head of the local communist set up in Greece I could have told you that you wouldn't brother Nick here isn't it yes
but in my view you're being most third no one else could have made me give up george but the even grunting all of these who still would like to know who killed his brother yes he did really on an act that they were you are nickels go on wearing and i think it was completely dedicated to the party that came first last and all the time actually when george threatened to end his use to the common form by exposing him he thought he'd killed that's right you certainly don't believe this attempt i don't know about him but i do know iraq
Where's Zalos?Where's Zalos?
Well, he's dead.Anybody want to buy a second-hand Colt automatic, I'll let it go real cheap.
Sold to the man on my right.All right, fellas, let's go.I think I took care of everything else.
uh... some more wine michael and i would say no you know i am completely mystified i don't see why a lieutenant well nicolas and joshua bravo so it can enable are yet but there was a difference here mhm nicolas was very fond of george he did everything he possibly could for him for sure but his first love with the communist party and anything that threatened it was an enemy so when it came to a showdown between his brother and the party george never chance i see
Well, I guess it proves one thing.Romancing a woman can sometimes lead to trouble, but having an affair with the Communist Party is just asking for murder.Good night, Lieutenant.
