Lamont Cranston (The Shadow)

Just a moment.

You know something about it?

I have a strong suspicion that the graveyard of the Pacific is really the work of some individual.

It's incredible.

It isn't logical that a group of modern ships, each one manned by an expert crew, equipped with the finest marine devices, should disappear unless they were made to disappear.

And with a little help from you, Admiral...

I think I can prove it.

Well, what do you want of me?

First, a fast cruiser to take me down to the South Pacific.

Second, an airplane to cruise around among the islands.

I'm sorry, sir, but my identity must remain unknown.

Besides that, I feel that I will be of greater value to the venture if our enemies cannot see me.

A young woman named Margot Lane will be your visible passenger.

I will be with her, but you will not see me.

You will advise the crew of my invisible state as the shadow and tell them to obey my voice.

even though they cannot see me.

No, just Margot Lane and the Shadow.

I hope that he's successful.

It's the Shadow, Margot.

May I come in your cabin for a moment?
