Now Tyler has sadly been in prison for the past three years. Now on parole he hopes to clear his name and find the person who set him up. While out on parole he gets a job working at an investment firm run by Mr. Warren. Will Tyler find out why and who set he up for a fall and maybe find love along the way. Well we all just have to watch and hope. Staring in this he was done wrong film we have...Robert Kent as Dave Tyler, Anne Nagel as Julie Warren, Sidney Blackmer as Gregory Warren, Victor Kilian as Bennett, Norman Willis as Russell, Maude Eburne as Mrs. Magruder, Ben Alexander as Jeff Palmer, Pat Flaherty as Sniffy, Carleton Young as Pete Jennings, Howard C.

00:00:00The End
00:00:36The End
00:01:07The End
00:01:24The Board of Parole, by legal right vested in it, and with approval by the Governor, has granted you a
00:01:29parole.
00:01:30Now, any violation will cause you to be brought back and serve the remaining six years of your term.
00:01:36You will report immediately to the place to which you have been paroled, and within 24 hours, you will report
00:01:42your arrival to the parole officer.
00:01:44Is that all clearly understood?
00:01:46Yes, sir.
00:01:48I've had three years to memorize it, and I couldn't forget it.
00:01:53Keeping all these rules won't give me much chance to prove my innocence.
00:01:57I'm afraid you can't get any sympathy on that point.
00:02:00In all my experience, I've never bumped into the case of convicting an innocent.
00:02:04I'm still waiting for the first one.
00:02:06If I get a fair break, you'll take back those words, warden.
00:02:10My boy, nothing would give me greater pleasure.
00:02:15Good luck to you, Tyler.
00:02:17Thank you, sir.
00:02:35I'm looking for Mr. Bennett, the parole officer.
00:02:38That's me.
00:02:39Good morning, I'm Dave Tyler.
00:02:40Oh, I've been expecting.
00:02:41Sit down.
00:02:42Thanks.
00:02:44Well, Tyler, my first duty was to instruct you regarding your parole restrictions.
00:02:49You're not to change your residence or employment without my consent.
00:02:53You're not to associate with persons having a criminal record.
00:02:56You're not to use intoxicating liquor, and particularly not to have in your possession any guns.
00:03:01You're not to marry without the permission of your parole officer.
00:03:05You'll report to me weekly, and I will visit your place of employment and residence when I see fit.
00:03:09Now, is that all clearly understood?
00:03:11I know all the rules backwards.
00:03:14For the next six years, no bad companions, no liquor, no guns, no late hours, no marriage.
00:03:19The question of marriage is not quite that severe.
00:03:22You are permitted to marry during your parole, provided we approve the lady and she's aware of your circumstances.
00:03:28That practically kills my chances with the right girl.
00:03:31Wouldn't it be rather humiliating to ask a lady to appear here for your approval?
00:03:36You'd be surprised what the right girl would do.
00:03:38I'll wait until I can prove I'm not guilty.
00:03:41Well, you might make some dare believe that.
00:03:45You have to carry this card with you at all times.
00:03:48It'll require your signature.
00:03:50In other words, I must carry a card to identify myself as a criminal.
00:03:55If you're picked up by the police, that'll prove you're legally out of prison.
00:03:57Yeah, and brands me as a suspect for every crime in the neighborhood.
00:04:02Try to get the bitterness out of your system, Tyler.
00:04:04You should be grateful to be on parole and have a job with a respectable man like Gregory Warren.
00:04:09Well, I am grateful to Mr. Warren and anyone else who believes in me.
00:04:12I'll need all the friends I can get to help me prove my innocence.
00:04:15Tyler, you've had your hearing in court.
00:04:18They've passed judgment on your guilt.
00:04:20What you'd better do is pay strict attention to your parole conditions.
00:04:23Remember, you're not a free man.
00:04:25Your parole is another way of serving the remaining six years of your term.
00:04:47You're the landlady?
00:04:48Mrs. McGruder.
00:04:50I saw the sign outside of you.
00:04:52Any vacancies?
00:04:53I got one room.
00:04:54Can I see it?
00:04:55Yes.
00:04:55I don't think you'll like it, but you can look at it.
00:05:00The last man that was here, he didn't like it.
00:05:04I don't know how you ever found this place.
00:05:08Well, if you don't expect too much, you won't be disappointed.
00:05:12It's got windows and a bed.
00:05:15What more does a person want than a man?
00:05:22You're too modest, Mrs. McGruder.
00:05:24Well, it's got a floor.
00:05:27And walls.
00:05:31Curtains on the windows.
00:05:34Well, it's even got chairs with backs on them.
00:05:38And can you beat it?
00:05:40It's got a ceiling.
00:05:42Never mind of the cracks.
00:05:44No, I won't, as long as the rain doesn't come through them.
00:05:48Well, make up your mind.
00:05:49Do you want it?
00:05:50I'll make up my mind while you make up the bed.
00:06:00Say, doesn't the sun ever come in here?
00:06:02Sun?
00:06:02Huh.
00:06:03Some people want the earth for three dollars a week.
00:06:06You want the sun.
00:06:07Okay, skip the sun.
00:06:09I'll get along without that.
00:06:10Okay, young man.
00:06:11You got references?
00:06:13No.
00:06:14Have you?
00:06:15Have you got a job?
00:06:17Starting a new one.
00:06:18Reporting tomorrow.
00:06:19How are you on keeping jobs?
00:06:21Well, I was at the last one for over three years.
00:06:24Just wouldn't let me go.
00:06:25Who are you working for?
00:06:27Gregory Warren and Company Investments.
00:06:29Uh-huh.
00:06:31Well, here's your key.
00:06:33I don't want to be bothered much for a measly three dollars a week.
00:06:38So, if you want anything, don't call me.
00:06:42You ain't got me.
00:06:43Thanks.
00:06:44And, by the way, if you want the rent right away, don't ask me.
00:06:47I haven't got it.
00:06:49I ain't surprised.
00:07:07Hello, Jeff.
00:07:10Dave!
00:07:11Gee, fella, I can't believe it's you.
00:07:13Gosh, it's good to see you.
00:07:14Jeff, you don't know how grateful I am to you for helping me get paroled.
00:07:17Well, I've been scheming that article ever since your trial, but I couldn't print it until you were up for
00:07:20parole.
00:07:21See, you had it figured out to a T.
00:07:23Well, half a dozen people wrote in offering me jobs.
00:07:25Yeah?
00:07:26Which one did they give you?
00:07:27A fellow by the name of Gregory Warren runs an investment company.
00:07:30Gregory Warren?
00:07:31Well, good.
00:07:31I know him.
00:07:32Hey, come on, sit down.
00:07:33Well, that job ought to be all right for you.
00:07:35It's up to me to make it all right.
00:07:37But they'll forget I'm a jailbird.
00:07:39Well, you watch your step and people forget in no time.
00:07:42And you forget it, too.
00:07:44I'll watch my step.
00:07:45And I'm not going to forget.
00:07:47Well, you will in time, Dave.
00:07:48Say, come on out to my place.
00:07:50See, it'll be like old times us rooming together again.
00:07:52No, thanks, Jeff.
00:07:53I've got a place.
00:07:54But there's plenty of room.
00:07:55No.
00:07:56You've done enough already.
00:07:57I can't drag a mess of parole rules into your home.
00:08:00Why, they be questioning you all the time.
00:08:03I'm sort of an outcast, you know.
00:08:04Well, not with me.
00:08:06Thanks, Jeff.
00:08:07Say, uh, maybe one.
00:08:08Need a little cash?
00:08:10Uh, very little, but it's all yours, Dave.
00:08:12You know that.
00:08:13Ah, get along.
00:08:15Thanks for believing I'm not guilty, Jeff.
00:08:18Well, what else could I do?
00:08:20Powell was in trouble and needed help.
00:08:23Then you think I am guilty.
00:08:25You've thought it right along.
00:08:28Yet you did all you could to help me out.
00:08:30Well, maybe I didn't give it much thought.
00:08:33But, Jeff, I tell you, I'm innocent.
00:08:35Dave, you had a good lawyer and a fair trial.
00:08:38And six witnesses swore they saw you drive away from that bank.
00:08:41But I wasn't anywhere near that bank.
00:08:43I didn't have anything to do with the robbery.
00:08:46Well, let's forget about it.
00:08:48Forget it.
00:08:50After three years up there,
00:08:52after three years of being herded around with a bunch of criminals
00:08:55in charge of the crime I didn't do,
00:08:56I can't forget that.
00:08:58I tell you, I'm innocent.
00:09:00Every one of those six witnesses lied when they testified against me.
00:09:04Somebody framed me beautifully.
00:09:07Well, I'm sorry, Dave.
00:09:08I heard those witnesses and they certainly convinced me.
00:09:14It helped a lot if I thought you believed me, Jeff.
00:09:18Oh, gosh, I guess they even had me fooled.
00:09:21And you do believe me?
00:09:23Yes, Dave, I do.
00:09:25Now.
00:09:26I don't know why I ever believed anything else.
00:09:29Thanks, Jeff.
00:09:31I needed that from you.
00:09:39Three years for something he didn't do.
00:09:43He'll be coming out of there with fire in his eye,
00:09:45looking for the guy that really pulled that bank job.
00:09:48That job was nicely tied to him for the rest of his life.
00:09:51You hope.
00:09:52It's a good thing for you that six witnesses
00:09:54saw him running away from that robbery.
00:09:56Yeah, six witnesses.
00:09:58Made to your order.
00:09:59And they saved your hide by sending him to jail instead of you.
00:10:04Yeah, there was a nice hunk of dough you cleaned up
00:10:06when they took Tyler out of that football game.
00:10:08Oh, I'd like to get my hands on another setup like that.
00:10:20Is Mr. Warren in?
00:10:21He'll get on to us in a week and blow all our rackets wide open.
00:10:24Suppose he starts taking up those witnesses.
00:10:25In that case, I'll turn him over as a parole violator
00:10:28and he'll go back to state's prison for the other six years.
00:10:40Mr. Warren?
00:10:42Yes?
00:10:44Why, you're Gwiz Tyler.
00:10:46Not any longer.
00:10:47I'm Dave Tyler.
00:10:48Welcome, Dave Tyler.
00:10:49I'm glad to see you.
00:10:50I hope you'll always be able to say that.
00:10:52This is Mr. Russell.
00:10:54He's a close associate of mine, a sort of silent partner.
00:10:57How do you do, Mr. Russell?
00:10:59How I am.
00:11:00Incidentally, Russell knows the circumstances of your being here.
00:11:03I was hoping the newspapers wouldn't blast that too much.
00:11:06Yes, I used my influence to pipe that down.
00:11:09Well, that's a break.
00:11:10Yeah, I figured there'd be handicaps enough without that.
00:11:13Yeah, the parole board'd pile them on thick.
00:11:15I have to report on everything but my old razor blades.
00:11:18Cigarette?
00:11:19No, thanks.
00:11:21Mr. Warren,
00:11:22I'd like to tell you how grateful I am for giving me this job.
00:11:26Why, not at all.
00:11:26I'm only repaying you for all you've done for me.
00:11:30I've always greatly admired your courage as a football player.
00:11:33You're one of the few that remembered.
00:11:36Well, shall we start things off with a little celebration?
00:11:38Would you like a drink?
00:11:39The parole board says thumbs down on that.
00:11:41Oh, that's a parole violation, isn't it?
00:11:43They're afraid you might stub your toe again.
00:11:47Mr. Warren, I never stubbed my toe in the first place.
00:11:50That charge against me was all wrong.
00:11:52I never robbed any bank.
00:11:55I'd like you to believe that.
00:11:56Well, it really doesn't make any difference to me.
00:11:59My interest is entirely in your football record.
00:12:04Now, this is for you, Mr. Warren.
00:12:06It's your little sister.
00:12:08Oh, hello, Freckles.
00:12:14Enjoying your visit?
00:12:16Get you what?
00:12:18A dog house?
00:12:21Oh, a doll house!
00:12:23Oh, no, I won't forget.
00:12:26I'll have the show for bite.
00:12:28And make sure you're ready.
00:12:30I want you home before dark.
00:12:33Yes, I'll see you at dinner.
00:12:35Yeah, I'll be waiting.
00:12:37Goodbye, Freckles.
00:12:40There's my kid sister.
00:12:42She's vesting up at Galeville.

00:12:46Someone has to buy a doll house.
00:12:49She wants the car to bring it up.
00:12:51I'll do the best I can.
00:12:52Not you.
00:12:53You're not cut out for that sort of work.
00:12:54Can you drive a car?
00:12:56That's what they said I was doing at that bank stick-up.
00:12:59Well, this will be your first job.
00:13:02You're to buy a doll house and drive to Galeville.
00:13:06Here's the address.

00:13:11And where's your house?
00:13:12She'll tell you.
00:13:13But don't let her tell you how to drive.
00:13:16Drive carefully and avoid accidents when you're with her.
00:13:19You realize I don't dare drive without a license.
00:13:22And in order to get that, I have to see my parole officer.
00:13:25Well, I'll have to meet your parole officer sooner or later.
00:13:27It may as well be now.
00:13:29Come on, let's go.

00:21:50figure
00:21:50out why they picked on me for the goat well whoever it is you can bet he's keeping his eye
00:21:55on you
00:21:55and the minute you get too hot he'll close in he won't stop at anything neither will i okay how

00:22:07one

00:22:29two years have you any idea where he went yes he went down to the corner to get some groceries
00:22:34one night and a year later i got a postcard from china and dope haven't you heard from him since
00:22:39no and i don't expect to know anything about a man named paul redding used to be a teller here

00:22:46believe that's right friend of yours not exactly but it's very important i find him know where he is
00:22:52i can't say but uh i have my suspicions what do you mean well he's been dead for six months

00:26:32found a single one of those witnesses your last hope is that fellow tony lynch

00:49:27I don't know.
00:49:28Give me that gun.
00:49:34That's enough, snippy.
00:49:36Why, you...
00:49:36What's the matter with you?
00:49:38Now tell me the name of that guy.
00:49:39What guy are you talking about?
00:49:41Quit stalling the guy that framed me.
00:49:42Well, let's get this stuff out of here first.
00:49:44Not till you tell me.
00:49:46Why, you fool, if we're caught in here, you'll go to jail.
00:49:49So are you, so you better tell me and tell me quick.
00:49:50I can always turn you up for this job.
00:49:53All right.
00:49:54There's the guy you're working for, Gregory Warren.
00:49:58You're lying.
00:49:59Why should he do that?
00:50:01Because he had a lot of bets on a football game and he couldn't win with you playing.
00:50:04Well, then who did the backstick up?
00:50:06Joe Russell.
00:50:07Why, him and Warren own all the rackets in this town.
00:50:09Now, come on, let's get out of here.
00:50:11Leave that stuff where it is.
00:50:12Put these spurs...
00:50:13Come on, get out of here.
00:50:40Now that I know who he is, I've stopped dead in my tracks.
00:50:42I can't do anything about it.
00:50:43If I turn Warren up for what he is, what's that going to do to his sister?
00:50:46Listen, you've got your own life to live.
00:50:48Go to this guy Warren and smack it to him and I'll blast him all over the front page.
00:50:52No, then she'd know.
00:50:53Well, then go to her.
00:50:54If she's in love with you, maybe she'll help.
00:50:56What?
00:50:56Turn against her own brother?
00:50:57Not a chance.
00:50:58Well, you better do something before the parole officer gets a hold of you.
00:51:01He isn't going to catch up with me.
00:51:03Hey, you don't mean you'd run out with this hanging over you just to protect a mug like Warren.
00:51:07You're missing the point.
00:51:09It's Julie.
00:51:09Your brother means everything to her.
00:51:10Yeah, she means everything to you.
00:51:13Well, I'm not going to wreck her life just to clean myself up.
00:51:16Well, there's only one thing to do.
00:51:17I'll go to her and I'll tell her who I am and what I am and that'll end it.
00:51:21So long, Jeff.
00:51:23Thanks for everything.
00:51:44Dave, what in the world happened?
00:51:45What are you doing here at this time of night?
00:51:47I came over to say goodbye.
00:51:49I'm going away.
00:51:50Tonight?
00:51:51Yes, I have to.
00:51:53I have to get away from a parole officer.
00:51:55Now, what on earth would a parole officer want with you?
00:51:58Send me back to prison.
00:52:01Julie, I'm Wes Tyler.
00:52:04Football player who was convicted for robbing a bank.
00:52:07That ought to explain a lot of things to you.
00:52:10Now you see why I couldn't ask you to marry me.
00:52:13I couldn't with a record like that hanging over my head.
00:52:16Oh, Dave, I don't believe it.
00:52:18I just can't believe you could do a thing like that.
00:52:20Oh, you couldn't.
00:52:22I didn't.
00:52:23The jury convicted me.
00:52:24They believed I did it.
00:52:26Oh, but I know you didn't.
00:52:28Thanks, Julie, but that doesn't clear me.
00:52:32Ever since I was paroled, I've been looking for the men who testified against me,
00:52:35and now I'm at the end of my rope.
00:52:39Oh, Dave, it's not like you to give up.
00:52:42I would look as if you were guilty to leave now.
00:52:45Running away won't do any good.
00:52:47I can't stay here either.
00:52:48It's too late for that.
00:52:49I'll get my brother to help him.
00:52:51He'll do anything I ask him.
00:52:53Can't let him help me.
00:52:54But he will, dear, and he can.
00:52:55He'll do anything for me.
00:52:57All I have to do is ask him.
00:52:58I don't want you to do that.
00:52:59I don't want him to help me.
00:53:00What if I tell him how much we love each other?
00:53:02No, Julie.
00:53:09Hello.
00:53:10Oh, it's you, Greg.
00:53:12Is Tyler there with you?
00:53:13Well, put him on the phone.
00:53:14I want to talk to him.
00:53:16But, Greg, there's something I want to talk to you about first.
00:53:19Never mind about that.
00:53:20It can wait.
00:53:21Put Tyler on.
00:53:22Greg, what's wrong?
00:53:25He wants to talk to you.
00:53:32Yes?
00:53:32What are you doing in my house?
00:53:35I, uh...
00:53:36I thought I might find you here.
00:53:38Well, get out of there and get to the office.
00:53:40And don't lose any time about it.
00:53:42All right.
00:53:43I'll be right there.
00:53:46He wants me at the office.
00:53:48Well, what could have happened?
00:53:49It's after midnight.
00:53:50What does he want?
00:53:51I'll find out.
00:53:53And you will ask him to help you?
00:53:55No, Julie.
00:53:56Then you're really going away?
00:54:01Yes.
00:54:01Oh, Dave.
00:54:07Goodbye, Julie.
00:54:23What's all a rush, Warren?
00:54:25You're in a tight spot, Tyler.
00:54:27Well, you and your gorilla Russell ought to know.
00:54:28Well, what do you think you're going to do about it?
00:54:30Come down off your horse, Tyler.
00:54:31I know what we're going to do about it.
00:54:34Yeah, but this time it won't be so easy.
00:54:35Everything's out in the open now.
00:54:38If I'm grabbed before I get out of town,
00:54:40you better get six other men to pin that bank job on Russell.
00:54:42Sending Russell up won't help you now.
00:54:45That fur job that you pulled tonight got you in too deep.
00:54:50Steffy is a bad egg.
00:54:52Oh, so you know that, too.
00:54:54Well, whoever you had trailing me didn't find out
00:54:56what Sniffy said about you and why you railroaded me.
00:55:00And as long as you have so much influence, Mr. Warren,
00:55:02I'll leave it to you to square my record while I'm missing.
00:55:05Think that over.
00:55:07Good night.
00:55:10You're not going out the door, Tyler.
00:55:12You're going out the window.
00:55:13Ten floors.
00:55:28Are you going to let that monkey walk loose
00:55:29where he can spill his mouth?
00:55:30You know he's not only got me for the sticker,
00:55:32but he's got you for framing it.
00:55:33When the cops pick him up, he'll squawk.
00:55:35Are you going to let me handle him now?
00:55:38Well, yeah, you take care of him.
00:55:41Now you've come to your senses.
