This is the city!
And a fraction of our usual helicopter swing around city hall.
What's Joe's monologue this week?
Money, and how to get it. Working, borrowing, winning, etc.
When you steal it, that's when Joe and Bill go to work.
Virginia Gregg! Working at the candy store.
OK Back to the office.
(My favorite captain, Art Gilmore.)
Giving word to the press.
Hey! Policewoman Dorothy Miller! Welcome back.
Whelp, nevermind. Radio call.

Hi, Virginia Gregg!
First line-up in the series.
"Your left, number four, your left." Alfred Shelley is playing Al Vietti in the lower left corner.
These two decided to work the entire chain any time they needed money.

Well, these two go to pris, that's for sure.
