Chapter 1: What happens during the concrete pouring at the construction site?
Music Music THE END
Hey, Smith, Jackson, lock those forms together over in the east wing for a while, will you? We're laying concrete here. Yeah, we're ready to pour the stuff, Bill. Let it pour, Tom.
We've got to start on the next floor tomorrow, and we're behind schedule. 21st floor already? That's not bad. We'll catch up.
Chapter 2: How does the foreman react to the sudden death of a colleague?
I hope so, or Simmons might think he needs a new foreman.
Here comes concrete, Bill. Come on, fellas, rake that stuff down.
Let's get some action here. Sounds good down there, Bill. Some drop, too. Oh, did you have to mention that? Look, Joe, just watch your step up here, and you can live forever on jobs like these. Yeah, but who wants to live forever? Well, there you go. Hey, Bill, what the...
Tom, Mike, somebody come up here, quick. The bell's collapsed. What's the matter with him, Joe? What else is there, J.D.?
Chapter 3: What leads Inspector Faraday to investigate the murder of Bill Woods?
I don't know. It just fell down like an empty sack. You better give me a hand with it. Signal for the elevator to come up empty. What's the matter? Look, there's a bullet hole in him. A what? A bullet hole? Bill shot up here on the 20th floor, you crazy. I wish I was, Tom, because Bill's dead.

And now back to Boston Blackie.
Chapter 5: How does Blackie predict a second murder will occur?
Enemy to those who make him an enemy. Friend to those who have no friends. But, Faraday, you have to do something about these parking tickets. Look, John, you've been telling me that for 15 minutes. And for 15 minutes, I've told you there's nothing I can do. Now, we might as well talk about something else. Well, let's talk about Boston Blackie. I'm on my way up to see him. He's sick, you know.
Hey, look, let's leave Blackie out of this. What's the matter, Inspector? Don't you want Blackie to get along? What I think of Blackie is my own business. And nothing's the matter as long as he can't get out of bed. Now, you know you miss him.
Chapter 6: What does the investigation uncover about Mrs. Woods?
Yeah, like I'd miss a toothache. But let's not talk about him. Good. Let's get back to those parking tickets of mine. Oh, no. As I said before, I'm the contractor on that building going up at 1021 50th Street. Yeah, I know, but there's not... The police say my trucks are blocking traffic. I know, I know. I can't do anything about it. Look, Faraday, that's a big construction job, 36 stories.
My trucks have to park in the street while they're waiting to unload. John, there's nothing I can do. Look, you're a police officer. Can't you handle ordinary parking tickets? A little while ago, you were talking about Blackie.
Chapter 7: How do the detectives piece together the motive behind the murders?
Now you're talking like him. You know, maybe I'd better suddenly get busy. Really, Faraday, isn't there something you can do? Your trucks are parking illegally, John. And that's it. Excuse me. Hello, Faraday speaking.
Inspector, a call just came in from 50th Street. A woman for the Simmons Construction Company was shot to death five minutes ago.
What?
Yeah, while he was up on the 20th floor laying concrete. Nobody knows where the shot came from.
Well, what's the address?
Don't know where the guy got killed. 1021 50th Street.

Chapter 8: What is the final revelation about the killer's identity?
Thanks. Get me a squad car, will you?
Yeah, you bet.
What's the matter, Inspector? Maybe I'm going to work for you after all, John, but not on those parking tickets. You've just had a murder in your company. What? A murder. One of the foremen on that building you're putting up was just shot to death. Oh, no. No, he says. Yes. Now, now, don't get too upset about it. Murder's my business. I solve them every day.
Now, come along and I'll show you how I do it. I certainly will. Oh, you were going to see Blackie, weren't you? Yes, but I think that had better wait. This won't hold you up long. Come on down to your building with me and then we'll go up and see Blackie. Pull yourself together. One of my foremen murdered. It'll take time for me to get over this. Cheer up, John.
It's your foreman who's dead, and he'll never get over it.
How's Blackie doing in there, Shorty?
Shh, Miss Wesley's asleep.
Oh, good, good.
Something's wrong. By the way, he can't talk. That's what I call something.
