Martin Kimbrough : Mr. Mannix, Martin Kimbrough.
Joe Mannix : How do you do?
Martin Kimbrough : You said you wanted to talk to me about Tully's death?
Joe Mannix : Yes, but, uh, before we do, I'm a private detective like Wes Tully. We were friends.
Martin Kimbrough : What is it you want to say about Mr. Tully's death?
Joe Mannix : He was murdered.
Martin Kimbrough : It was ruled an accidental drowning.
Joe Mannix : Well, it was made to look that way. He was murdered.
Martin Kimbrough : How can you be so sure?
Joe Mannix : I was told so. In a way.
Martin Kimbrough : Told by whom?
Joe Mannix : Wes Tully.
Martin Kimbrough : [sighs] Mr. Mannix, you'll forgive me, but... riddles don't amuse me.
Joe Mannix : Wes came to my apartment the morning of the day he died. He was worried.
Martin Kimbrough : Worried about what?
Joe Mannix : [shows Kimbrough a can of undeveloped film] About this. He had it hidden in his home. Cost him his life.
Martin Kimbrough : What is this?
Joe Mannix : Undeveloped negatives of a man Tully thought masterminded the robbery at your bank four months ago- Darrell Andrews. Wes took the pictures, but never got a chance to develop them.
Martin Kimbrough : How did you get this?
Joe Mannix : He told me where he hid it. Just in case.
Martin Kimbrough : Wes Tully's been dead for two days. Why have you waited so long?
Joe Mannix : I was in San Francisco on a case. I left a couple of hours after talking to Wes last Sunday. I just got back this afternoon and heard what had happened.
Martin Kimbrough : Why have you brought this to me?
Joe Mannix : Wes asked me to. After all, you and the bank directors were his employers.
Martin Kimbrough : Yes, of course. I'll call the police.
Joe Mannix : I've already called them, Mr. Kimbrough. Lieutenant Charleston is due back from San Francisco at 9:00 A.M. I'm gonna meet him. And I don't think it would be very healthy for you to have this around the house. You may have callers.
Martin Kimbrough : Callers?
Joe Mannix : Two men have been following me.
[the phone rings]
Martin Kimbrough : Excuse me. Yes? Yes, he is. Just a minute It's for you.
Joe Mannix : Thank you. Hello. Yeah, this is Mannix. Who is this?
[the line disconnects]
Martin Kimbrough : What is it?
Joe Mannix : A warning. I'm not to go to the police.
Martin Kimbrough : Who was that?
Joe Mannix : Darrell Andrews. Maybe we can flush Mr. Andrews out of hiding.
Martin Kimbrough : How?
Joe Mannix : By going to meet Lieutenant Charleston as scheduled.
