00:00Once upon a time, there were three little girls who went to the police academy.
00:06Two in Los Angeles.
00:13The other in San Francisco.
00:16And they were each assigned very hazardous duties.
00:22But I took them away from all that.
00:25And now they work for me.
00:27My name is Charlie.
01:27Forgive me for a moment, ladies and gentlemen.
01:31No matter how long you've been in this business.
01:34And believe me, I have been in it since the discovery of fire.
01:40One tends to get a little dry in the throat.
01:47Now that's what I call wet water.
02:47When I was a mere tad, ladies and gentlemen.
03:05Another said to me, Wendell, you're going to set the world on fire.
03:13But little did she know.
03:43He's right here, Charlie.
04:00Wendell, sorry I was delayed.
04:02It's quite all right.
04:04Your angels have been most hospitable.
04:06He's been doing magic tricks, Charlie.
04:08I can't help myself.
04:10When I find an audience as delightful as this, I'm driven to perform.
04:16Have the police been bothering you again, Wendell?
04:19Yes, early this morning.
04:21Last night's fire was the third in as many weeks.
04:25And all at Fashion City warehouses?
04:27So I understand.
04:29The police are convinced that the magic man is at large again.
04:34Uh, who's the magic man?
04:36An almost legendary torch.
04:38Who's believed to be responsible for the more than a dozen insurance fires throughout the country over the past few years.
04:45Very little is known about him, but it's rumored that he was a professional magician.
04:50Hence the nickname.
04:51You see, my dears, I am cursed three times.
04:56I am a magician.
04:58In my act, I create fires.
05:01And I've had the great misfortune to be in some of the cities where the magic man has worked his mischief.
05:08None of that is evidence, of course.
05:10I can see where they might be suspicious.
05:15Oh, I'm sorry.
05:17Do you mind if I smoke, ladies?
05:19Uh, really, I... Oh, go ahead.
05:21Thank you.
05:24Uh, thank you. It's quite all right.
05:26I have my own light.
05:29Whoa! How'd you do that?
05:39Hey, Captain, take a break, will ya?
05:43Hi, Alex. You been any good fires lately?
05:45How you doing, Sabrina?
05:46Pretty good.
05:47Say, are you working on a case?
05:48Yeah.
05:49Then I've got nothing official to say.
05:51Hey, listen, Alex.
05:52Uh, three fires in three weeks, all in Fashion City warehouses or facilities, official or unofficial.
05:57That's arson.
05:59Yeah, you know it.
06:00Yeah. How was this one set?
06:02Don't know.
06:03There are no clues.
06:05Magic man?
06:07Off the record, yeah.
06:09We think so.
06:10Well, who do you think he was working for?
06:12Well, the guy who owns Fashion City is Joseph Watson.
06:16Now, here's something you might find interesting.
06:18Yeah?
06:19Two years ago, in Detroit, a garment warehouse was burned down.
06:23Now, arson was never proved, so insurance was paid.
06:27Now, the guy who owned that warehouse and Fashion City is the same...
06:32Joseph Watson.
06:34And you think he hired Wendell Mewes?
06:37I think we've talked enough.
06:38Hey, come on, Alex.
06:39Look, would a man who's clever enough to devise an undetectable method of arson
06:43go around the country doing a magic fire act?
06:45It can't be Wendell Mewes. It's too obvious.
06:48Maybe. Maybe he wants to be obvious.
06:50Maybe he gets some kind of kick out of rubbing our faces in it.
06:53I don't know.
06:54But he knows we can't touch him until we figure out how he starts the fires.
07:00What if Alex is right?
07:02Wendell's guilty.
07:04Just using us for smokescreen?
07:06Uh, yeah, in a manner of speaking.
07:12Hi, boss.
07:13Hi.
07:14You look like you've got something up your sleeve, boss.
07:16Well put.
07:17Listen to this.
07:19There is a magician by the name of the Great Danzini
07:22who is performing at the Magic Castle.
07:25Now, he likes to live high,
07:28but he's not drawing as well as he used to.
07:30Matter of fact, he's so broke he may have to hock his rabbit.
07:35If I have to hear one more magic joke...
07:38Being in debt is hardly a crime, boss.
07:41True, but I talked to his agent.
07:44Now, before his act soured,
07:46he used to play all over the country.
07:48Atlanta, Nashville, Pittsburgh.
07:51As a matter of fact, it was the very same tour as Wendell Mews.
07:55And let me guess.
07:57Their bookings were all around the time that the magic man was up to...
08:01Don't say it!
08:02Up to his old tricks.
08:04She said it.
08:06At the very same time as the fire in the warehouse in Detroit,
08:10the one that was owned by Watson.
08:13Hmm. Well, listen.
08:15If Wendell and Danzini are both appearing at the Magic Castle,
08:19maybe we all ought to materialize there ourselves.
08:24Okay. It's a good idea.
08:26You concentrate on that, and I'll concentrate on Watson.
08:31Now, I wonder what it'll take to interest Mr. Watson.
08:43Ah!
08:45Ah, bonjour, bonjour.
08:47Ah, c'est très joli.
08:49Yes.
08:50Uh, Mr. Watson, please.
08:53Coco, Coco, Coco, be still. Come here, my darling.
08:56Who shall I say is?
08:57I am Maxine Myrtille of Chez Roger Paris.
09:00One moment, please.
09:01Merci.
09:03Coco, Coco.
09:06There's a Maxine...
09:07Myrtille.
09:08Myrtille.
09:09Myrtille.
09:10Myrtille.
09:11Maxine...
09:12Myrtille, Myrtille.
09:14Maxine Myrtille.
09:15Oui.
09:16Maxine Myrtille from Paris to see you, Mr. Watson.
09:21Mr. Watson will be right out.
09:23Merci beaucoup.
09:26Ah, c'est très joli, très joli.
09:33Coco, Coco.
09:35Ah.
09:36Hmm.
09:40Ah, bonjour, bonjour.
09:42Mademoiselle Myrtille.
09:43Ah, Myrtille, Myrtille.
09:45How can I help you?
09:46I believe I have a mutual acquaintance,
09:48Monsieur Jules Deveaux.
09:50Is that not true?
09:51Yes, I've met Jules, although I don't know him well.
09:55His Lucerne collection was extremely successful.
09:58Ah, yes, it was.
09:59I was their designer.
10:01And...
10:02Coco.
10:06I have a proposition to make to you
10:08that I think you will find is very interesting.
10:11Well, I'd be delighted to hear it.
10:13Ah, merci beaucoup.
10:14Ah, merci, merci.
10:16Coco, Coco.
10:17Come, darling.
10:18Coco.
10:21So you see, Monsieur,
10:23I have been in this country for only a short time
10:25and I look for a...
10:27How do you say?
10:28The outlet for my designs.
10:31You've come to the right place.
10:32Ah.
10:34We'd be most happy to consider your designs.
10:36They're most impressive.
10:38Ah, merci.
10:39In fact,
10:41they're almost identical to some of Jules Deveaux's
10:43most recent work.
10:48Almost identical.
10:49Ah, but of course,
10:51Jules and I have similar feelings.
10:54Ah.
10:55Excuse me, Monsieur,
10:56you have been most amiable,
10:58but I must ask
11:00what felicities you have to offer.
11:03Felicities?
11:05Oh, I am sorry.
11:07My English is not very good.
11:10Um...
11:11Uh...
11:12Uh...
11:13Facilities.
11:16That is the word, yes?
11:17Oh, yes.
11:18Facilities.
11:19Yes.
11:20You'll want an office, I imagine.
11:21Oh.
11:22I should be most grateful.
11:23Well, I'll arrange it at once.
11:25Ah, merci.
11:26As long as you can produce designs such as these, mademoiselle.
11:29Oh, I think we're going to have a very profitable relationship.
11:33Ah, merci beaucoup.
11:35Merci, coucou.
11:36Merci.
11:37Merci.
11:44Good night.
11:59Ah.
12:30And now, ladies and gentlemen,
12:33from the Pantheon of Mysterioso,
12:36the Flying Coffin.
12:45As you can see,
12:46my assistant Marianne is a very lively girl,
12:50and yet she will appear to be right at home in this coffin.
12:53I hope you'll be comfortable in there, my dear.
12:55You should be, for it is a luxury model.
12:58Last used by the greatest ghoul of all,
13:01Count Dracula.
13:02The great Danzini.
13:04Likes to live big, but his act isn't drawing.
13:07Then let us proceed.
13:12Gently.
13:16And are you comfortable?
13:17Yes.
13:28Thank you.

15:25Captain Summers.
15:28Do you honestly think I'd be stupid enough
15:30to set four such similar fires,
15:32one right after the other,
15:34and then expect the insurance company to pay up?
15:36No-one's accusing you of anything, Mr Watson.
15:39Ah, bonjour, bonjour, pardon, bonjour, bonjour.
15:43Who was that?
15:44A designer from Paris.
15:46Somehow she seems familiar.
15:48Captain, I want that arsonist caught more than you do,
15:52to prove I didn't hire him.
15:55OK, Mr Watson, I'll give you a call if anything turns up.
16:02Hello, Vigee.
16:03Vigee, Vigee, Vigee.
16:07Ah, Monsieur Watson.
16:09What has happened?
16:11Your warehouse has been burned by the fire.
16:14Arson is what's happened.
16:16We're the target of some kind of maniac.
16:18Those fires were set on purpose.
16:20But who would do such a thing?
16:23I called Paris.
16:26Jules Devaux is in Iran.
16:29He can't be reached for three weeks.
16:31Of course, yes, I knew.
16:33Did you?
16:35I spoke with his secretary.
16:38She remembered the Maxine Mattel who worked there
16:41as having dark blonde hair and blue eyes.
16:44Ah, I remember her most clearly.
16:48Too heavy and very unpleasant.
16:50Also extremely jealous.
16:53You mean she lied to me just out of spite.
16:56I see.
16:58You think I am the imposter.
17:00Bien.
17:03I will take my designs and give them to someone else.
17:07No, no, no, no, no. There's no need to do that.
17:10Look, I don't care who you are or how you got those designs.
17:14As long as you can deliver, we'll do business.
17:17All I want to say is...
17:19Be careful.
17:21Ah, merci beaucoup.
17:24Au revoir.
17:34Tell Romero she's leaving now.
17:49Bye.
18:11Hey, let me give you a hand with that.
18:13Why don't you take the front?
18:15Where are we taking this thing?
18:18Just up against the wall.
18:23Thanks.
18:24You work with the great Danzini, right?
18:26I admit to it.
18:28My name's Chris.
18:30Oh, you're with Zoltan the...
18:33Sorcerer.
18:34Sorcerer.
18:35Marianne.
18:36Gee, it must be terrific working with the great Danzini.
18:40Beats topless dancing and coal mining, if that's what you mean.
18:44Yeah, but he's so cute.
18:46He agrees with you.
18:48Oh, that bad, huh?
18:51Bad.
18:52He has to buy a new mirror every week.
18:54They die from overwork.
18:56Here, let me help you.
18:58Look, honey, if you want my job, don't let me stop you.
19:04Hey, wait a minute.
19:06I didn't mean anything like that.
19:09Oh, hey, forget it.
19:13Look, this guy has got me very edgy, you know,
19:16and sometimes I just don't know when to turn it off.
19:20What's he do that's so bad?
19:22Well, for one thing, he's insulting.
19:25The other night, he comes up to me and says,
19:28if you don't go on a diet,
19:30the flying casket will never get off the ground.
19:33Of all the nerve.
19:35He's like, um, possessive, you know?
19:38I mean, he always wants to know where I am,
19:41and then he goes off himself for days at a time.
19:44Do you have any idea where?
19:46No idea.
19:48He's, um, suspicious, you know?
19:51He's practically paranoid
19:54someone will steal one of his lousy tricks.
19:57See you around, kid.
20:12Excuse me. Could you tell me where there's a...
20:32Excuse me. Could you tell me where there's a...
20:35What?
20:37Who's there?
20:39Come on.
20:43Open sesame.
21:05My contacts in the spirit world tell
21:06me your name is Elizabeth Hart.
21:09Your father was Malvolio, one of the great magicians.
21:13I think your contacts in the spirit world
21:15checked at the front desk.
21:17Alas, I'm found out.
21:22I saw you in the audience last night.
21:25Did you enjoy the show?
21:27It had a certain style, I suppose.
21:31The illusions, however, were.
21:33Were not like your father's.
21:36One great illusion is all I need.
21:39One sensational trick whose secret is known only to me.
21:43Houdini had his water torture.
21:45Your father, the collapsing pressure chamber.
21:50We know, of course, how Houdini's was done.
21:52But the secret of your father's illusion died with him.
21:57If your contacts in the spirit world were any good,
22:00it would tell you Malvolio kept the diary.
22:04You know the secret of the collapsing pressure chamber?
22:10Several men have died trying to duplicate it.
22:13My father left strict instructions to me.
22:16Only a man with the talent, the drive necessary
22:18to become another Houdini or Malvolio
22:21will ever know the secret.
22:23You are looking at that man.
22:27Prove it.
22:28Oh, Ken, now, you are Chris, Chris and I am Zoltan, huh?
22:34Zoltan.
22:35Don't be nervous.
22:43And now, ladies and gentlemen, Zoltan, the sorcerer,
22:47and his lovely assistant, Chris.
22:53Zoltan.
22:54Zoltan.
22:55Oh, it's wonderful.
22:56Hey.
23:04Thank you, thank you, ladies and gentlemen.
23:07I am Zoltan, the sorcerer, and this
23:11is my lovely assistant, Chris.
23:18Please, please, sir, if you wish to hail a cab,
23:20would you please go outside?
23:22Thank you very much.
23:24Now, I, Zoltan, and my lovely assistant, Chris,
23:32are going to attempt to tap the very recesses of your mind,
23:37thereby demonstrating for you the wondrous powers
23:41commonly known as ESP, or mental telepathy.
23:47Now, I have here, I, well, I have, oh, thank you.
23:54I have here before you what is known
23:56as a common Halloween mask, impossible
23:58to see through with human eyes.
24:01Now, I, Zoltan, and my lovely assistant, Chris,
24:08she will be walking amongst you asking for small articles
24:12that you have on your person.
24:13Chris, proceed.
24:20Chris?
24:22Oh, yes, I'm ready, Zoltan.
24:24Oh, splendid.
24:26I am holding in my hand an object.
24:30What is it?
24:32Uh, this seems to be still very foggy.
24:36Well, just take your time.
24:40Ah, you are holding my watch.
24:43Absolutely, absolutely.
24:47All right, now concentrate.
24:51You are holding a glass of orange juice.
24:56A man has a glass of orange juice in his pocket.
24:59No, no, um...
25:01Do you believe this act?
25:03Uh, please be right.
25:06You are holding a pen.
25:09Absolutely right.
25:11Are you ready, Zoltan?
25:13Zoltan!
25:14Zoltan, and now you should be able
25:17to see clearly through that fog.
25:19I can, as if I were not wearing a Halloween mask at all,
25:24but I were wearing a pair of glasses.
25:34All right, Zoltan.
25:37All right, Zoltan.
25:39Don't blow this one.
25:41Ah-ha! A handkerchief!
25:51Ah, and who have we here?
25:53Well, it looks like two very shy gentlemen.
25:55Uh, your wallet, please.
25:57Would you give me your wallet?
25:59No, we don't want to.
26:01Oh, it looks like they're gonna need a little encouragement.
26:03A little encouragement, please.
26:06Lovely.
26:08Your wallet.
26:12Thank you.
26:14All right, Zoltan, are you ready?
26:16Fire away!
26:18All right.
26:20Concentrate now, Zoltan.
26:22I will try to steer you in the right direction.
26:24You are holding a side of beef!
26:30No, no, no, no.
26:32You're heading down the wrong street.
26:35Well, in that case,
26:37you are holding a driver's license.
26:39Absolutely correct.
26:41Thank you.
26:43Give me that.
26:45Mr. Thomas Romero of Encino.
26:49What do you think you're doing?
26:51You're out of your mind, you know that?
26:53Thank you for being such good sports.
26:55You've been wonderful, ladies and gentlemen.
26:57Thank you.
26:59Thank you. What it all!
27:01Three! Come up here!
27:16Yes, you were wonderful!
27:18Christian Bas, I'll be with you as soon as I change.
27:20Okay, I want to go check on who those guys were.
27:22Okay.
27:31Thank you.
28:01So, they packed the showerhead with sodium.
28:03Then, when she turns on the water,
28:05it ignites.
28:07Very neat and very dangerous.
28:09A magic man.
28:11Oh, no, maybe not.
28:13Charlie got a report from some of his people
28:15in the Midwest, and they say
28:17that there was an unidentified corpse
28:19discovered in that warehouse in Detroit.
28:21The one owned by Watson?
28:23That's right.
28:25And the underworld there believes
28:27that the body was that of the magic man.
28:30But why would somebody go after me?
28:32Well, I guess just to frighten you.
28:34Well, they did that.
28:36Hey, Bas, you find out anything about those two fellows
28:38who were following me?
28:40Yeah, as a matter of fact, I've got it right here.
28:42Let's see.
28:44One of the guys' names was Tommy Romero.
28:46Small-time crook.
28:48Very undistinguished career.
28:50Works with a partner.
28:52Let's see. Named Mel Gross.
28:54Oh, and get this.
28:56They were both recently gainfully employed
28:59as shippers at one of Joseph Watson's
29:01Fashion City warehouses.
29:05Watson again?
29:07Fashion City's closed on Sunday.
29:11I think I'll go over there and take a look around.
29:13You onto something, Bree?
29:15Maybe.
29:17The guard told me that before the fire started,
29:19he thought he heard a phone ring.
29:21Well, I could have sworn
29:23the other night in the warehouse...
29:25I could have sworn I heard a phone ring, too.
29:28And?
29:30I don't know. Maybe there's some connection.
29:57♪
30:27♪
30:57♪
30:59♪
31:01♪
31:03♪
31:05♪
31:07♪
31:09♪
31:11♪
31:13♪
31:15♪
31:17You look truly magnificent.
31:19Nobody will ever accuse you of understating.
31:21Oh, on the contrary.
31:23In your presence, I find words are inadequate.
31:25Rather than the compliments,
31:27I prefer a glass of wine.
31:29Well, of course.
31:31Whatever the lady desires.
31:35For you...
31:39a glass of wine.
31:41I gather that's what it is.
31:45Well, you're certainly blasé.
31:47I mean, where did it come from?
31:49How could I have known in advance
31:51what drink you prefer?
31:53You asked the bartender.
31:56Look, this seems a little silly.
31:58Rather than trying to impress me
32:00with such simple tricks,
32:02why don't you tell me about yourself?
32:04Tell me how you developed your act,
32:06where you plan to go from here.
32:08I do want to get to know you better.
32:11Do you?
32:13I'd like to see what you've been working on.
32:17Well, of course you realize
32:19there are some unscrupulous people
32:21on the fringes of our profession.
32:23They wouldn't hesitate to steal new ideas.
32:25Surely you don't think I'm one of them.
32:27No, of course not.
32:29But they might see me
32:31demonstrating my illusions for you.
32:33Well, let's just forget it.
32:35Now, wait, please.
32:37Where's the fire?
32:39Beg your pardon?
32:41Did I say fire?
32:43I meant flower.
32:45Is this one of the incredible illusions
32:47you were afraid I'd steal?
32:49No, I really didn't mean that.
32:51Look, we could work out a private show.
32:53I have a place up in the mountains
32:55where I go from time to time
32:57to get away for a few days.
32:59Perhaps we could go there.
33:01You're being a little obvious, aren't you?
33:03Well, I hope that that would be
33:05refreshing in a magician.
33:07I'll think about it.
33:09A moment.
33:11Please do.
33:13Charming.
33:15May I?
33:17I'll think about it.
33:19Please do.
33:21Charming.
33:23May I?
33:47Hiya.
33:49She's upstairs working on the not-so-great benzene.
33:51Okay, listen.
33:53We don't have magical fires.
33:55What we have here is a very clever arsonist.
33:57You mean you know how the fires are started?
33:59Yeah, by telephone.
34:01Telephone?
34:03Uh-huh.
34:05Someone stuffed a pyrophoric compound
34:07into the Belgium...
34:09Wait a minute. Pyro-what?
34:11You shouldn't say words like that in public, Bree.
34:13Oh, come on, Bosley.
34:15It's not a compound. It's mostly phosphorus.
34:17Is that all it takes?
34:19It's a little more complicated.
34:21You see, you got the phone, right?
34:23Now, you put this phosphorus in the bell chamber, okay?
34:25You fix a wire in the bell chamber.
34:27Phone rings.
34:29A little electrical charge
34:31hits the phosphorus.
34:33Now then, the phosphorus
34:35is easy to ignite, right?
34:37But it spreads too quickly,
34:39so you have to fill the rest of the phone
34:41with this.
34:43That's, uh...
34:45That's gun cotton.
34:47That's what put me on to the whole thing.
34:49Well, that explains, then,
34:51why the arsonist was never around.
34:53All he had to do was just dial a phone number.
34:55Yeah. He could have done it in another city.
34:57Yeah, but he couldn't be on stage.
34:59Well, if the arsonist
35:01is Wendell Mewes
35:03or Danzini,
35:05then the phone call has to somehow be made
35:07while they're performing.
35:09I mean, that's been the pattern so far.
35:11Then what we have to do is catch the arsonist in the act.
35:13And there's another telephone
35:15already rigged at Fashion City.
35:17That means he plans one for tonight.
35:19You know what? There is a pay telephone
35:21backstage. I don't know how he does it,
35:23but if it's one of our magicians, I'll bet you that's the phone he uses.
35:25Yeah, well, I took the phosphorus
35:27out of the phone at Fashion City.
35:29I'll be there when it rings.
35:31If we're lucky, maybe we'll catch
35:33ourselves a ghost.
35:37I will now perform for you
35:39a superb illusion that I have performed only once before
35:41for the crowned heads of Europe
35:43during a command performance.
35:45Observe the handkerchiefs closely,
35:47carefully,
35:49and now, voila.

36:41She's in your office right now.
36:43Thanks, Ed, but it's all right.
36:45You just go on home now.
36:47Okay, Mr. Watson.
36:49Anything you say.

39:21music
39:23music
39:25Of course!
39:27I thought it could be a woman's voice I heard.
39:29Phoning me.
39:31Whispering to me that the magic man
39:33had come back from the grave.
39:35Oh, but I knew that was impossible.
39:37There's nowhere to go.
39:39Look.
39:41I don't know what you're talking about, okay?
39:43I pretended to be French
39:45so that you would look at my designs.
39:47All right. But I don't know what you're talking about.
39:49Now, what's the harm in that, huh?
39:51Back in there.
39:53I'm telling you, I don't know what you're talking about.
39:55I do not know what you are talking about.

40:07The magic man's name was Larry Webb.
40:09He was my husband.
40:13He was also an arsonist.
40:15Yeah.
40:21He, uh...
40:23He was down on himself.
40:25He wasn't making it
40:27in show business.
40:31So he started setting fires for money.
40:35He was good at it.
40:39What's the tie-in with Watson?
40:43Larry left an envelope with me
40:45to be opened
40:47in case anything happened to him.
40:49In it
40:51was a list of clients
40:53who had paid Larry
40:55to start those insurance fires.
40:57And the last name
40:59on the list
41:01was Joseph Watson.
41:07Then your husband was that man
41:09that was killed in that fire in Detroit.
41:11Yeah.
41:15Watson tricked Larry
41:17somehow.
41:19He trapped him
41:21in that warehouse.
41:23And then
41:25he set it on fire.
41:27I knew it.
41:29I knew it.
41:31But I couldn't prove it.
41:33But...
41:35See, I knew how
41:37Larry started the fires.
41:39I wanted to ruin Watson.
41:43To destroy everything
41:45he owned with fire.
41:55Look,
41:57I don't know who you think I am,
41:59but I did not set those fires.
42:01Now, you gotta believe me.
42:03I really don't know what you're talking about.
42:05You're a magic man.
42:07Who are you?
42:09His sister? His wife?
42:11No!
42:13He must have... He must have told you!
42:15Or left a diary or something.
42:17Listen, I am a beginning
42:19fashion designer trying to get a break.
42:21I don't know a magic man.
42:25He did a job
42:27for me once.
42:33And then he tried to blackmail me.
42:35It was his mistake.
42:37Now, look...
42:39Don't move, or I'll kill you.
42:41I'm not gonna move.
42:43Okay? I'm sitting back.
42:49What is this? What has she done?
42:51Wait a moment!
42:53What's going on here?
42:55I'm afraid you're gonna have to find yourself
42:57a new assistant.
42:59You're not Malvolio's daughter, are you?
43:01Afraid not.
43:03In the collapsing pressure chamber.
43:05Collapsed?
43:11Wow, I wonder
43:13why we haven't heard or seen from Sabrina.
43:15She's probably still at Fashion City.
43:17You got a dime, Bosley?
43:19Ah.
43:21Oh, man.
43:23You're taking this magic stuff too seriously.
43:29Something like this, I should think.
43:33Yes.
43:35That's very ingenious.
43:41Now the police
43:43are going to find their arsonist.
43:45It's busy.
43:47Well, we'll just wait a minute
43:49and call back. Okay.
43:55When that phone goes off...
44:01this whole place will go off like a torch.
44:05You're going to go with it.
44:07You know, it's really a pity.
44:09Because whoever you are,
44:11you're very pretty.
44:17Well,
44:19I'm going to Palm Springs.
44:21I'll establish my presence there.
44:23Hmm.
44:25Oh, uh...
44:27I'll call you.
44:39Okay.
45:01That's weird.
45:03It rang a couple of times
45:05and then it went dead.
45:07Huh?
45:09Uh-uh. Didn't sound like that.
45:11We better get over there right away.
45:13Come on.
45:37Come on.
46:07The building's on fire.
46:19Yes, I want to report a fire.
46:21Randolph and 16th.
46:23Fashion City offices.
46:29Got it.
46:31Okay, on three. Ready?
46:33One, two, three.
46:35Okay.
46:37Operator down. Operator down.
46:39Hold it. He's in there.
46:41Wait a minute. I'll get the fire extinguisher.
46:43Okay, wait.
46:45Okay.
46:47Aah!
47:05Aah!
47:07Is she okay?
47:09I don't see any burns.
47:11She took in a lot of smoke.
47:13And Sabrina's death unspoken.
47:15Uh...
47:33Well done, angels.
47:35Joseph Watson was picked up
47:37by the police last night.
47:39Whatever happens to him,
47:41I'd say Mary Ann Webb's revenge was a success.
47:43Well, I hope that's a comfort to her in prison.
47:45Oh, one more thing, Chris.
47:47I did want to compliment you and Bosley
47:49on that marvelous mind-reading act.
47:51Oh, thank you, Charles.
47:53Charlie.
47:55You were there?
47:57Of course.
47:59I wouldn't have missed it for the world.
48:01I gave Chris my pen,
48:03and Bosley got it right away.
48:05Goodbye, angels.
48:07Wait, Charlie. Charlie.
48:09Okay.
48:11What did he look like?
48:13Uh, I don't know. It was really dark.
48:15Well, try to remember, Chris.
48:17Well, I was nervous.
48:19Oh, come on.
48:21What was his hair?
48:23Was he tall? Was he short?
48:25You got to think.
48:27You got to think a little harder.
48:29He handed you the pen.
48:31You said, get this one right.
48:33Sorry, she's sorry.
48:35Think a little harder.
48:37Calm down, calm down.
48:39I don't know!
