The Adventures of the Saint, starring Vincent Price.
The Saint, based on characters created by Leslie Charteris and known to millions from books, magazines, and motion pictures. The Robin Hood of modern crime now comes transcribed to radio, starring Hollywood's brilliant and talented actor Vincent Price as...
The Saint. What happened? What's wrong? He's shot. Someone shot that man. It's murder.
What clues does Betty reveal about the murder?
He's murdered. Oh.
Oh, I didn't see you in there. I thought the cab was empty.
It's perfectly all right, Miss Ames. Oh, please don't go. I must, the police... Are now at the scene of the crime. They'll take care of things. I can see you're in a hurry.
Yes, I am.
All right, driver, step on it.
Yes, sir.
Comfortable, Miss Ames?
I don't know you, do I?
An oversight on my part that can be easily remedied. I'm Simon Templer.
Simon Templer?
Yes.
Oh, you're the saint, aren't you?
Sometimes I feel as though I had a neon sign on my forehead.
Who are the key suspects in Jim Barry's murder?
I'll confess the fatal appellation.
Well, I think I'd better get out, Mr. Templer.
You see, I've got... The saint is not synonymous with boogeyman, Miss Ames, and why not call me Simon? After all, we were both present at the unveiling of the corpse. If you think you're being funny, Mr. Templer... There's nothing funny about murder, particularly when as pretty a girl as you is involved.
But I'm not involved.
A question of semantics, Miss Ames? A man gets killed when you're within five feet of him and you turn tail and run. If that's not being involved, my dictionary lied to me.
Well, I suppose you're right. It was foolish of me to run, but when I heard those shots and saw him fall, I... How did you know who I was?
Such modesty is becoming, but hardly intelligent, Miss Ames. You're a star. Your show is opening in a week and your pictures have been plastered all over town.
Of course, I should have known.
Did you know the man who was shot at?
Yes. Yes, I had an appointment with him. His name was Jim Barry.
Oh, the publisher? Yes. I know him, or rather knew him. He's been kind enough to publish some scribblings of mine, but... What were you going to see him about? Anything special?
No, just a business talk.
A business talk with a publisher? Don't tell me the Barry Kilgore Company is going to publish the story of your life.
No, but Jim's firm was preparing an anthology at a modern theater. He wanted to include the new play I'm going to be in. Down, Betty.
Down to the floor.
I said down!
What?
What happened?
Somebody doesn't like us, Betty. The driver of that car threw some hot lead our way. But how? I don't know. I only saw the glint of a gun out of the corner of my eye. Hey, driver, are you... Simon, is he dead?
