Plot Overview

Capt. Marceau and Helen Kilborn look at a photo of the Nicholson-McGinnis transaction. Helen can't believe that McGinnis would turn out to be a blackmailer. Marceau says the auditors are going over Nicholson's books now. The auditor calls and reports a $35,000 shortfall. Bill leaves to pick up the two men as Mike arrives. Helen tells Mike what's going on and he says that the photo doesn't prove anything. Mac McGinnis and coworker and galpal Francesca Lowrey talk. She is upset that he didn't follow her wishes and become city editor. He says that he is happy doing what he does--- exposing all the dirt. Marceau arrives and takes both a stunned McGinnis and Lowrey in for questioning. Nicholson becomes nervous when he learns that the police have subpoenaed his books. Marceau arrives and informs him that a shortage was found. He takes the commissioner downtown for questioning. Helen tells Mike that she couldn't find anything on Roy Benson. He is as clean as a whistle. Marceau questions both men at the same time. Nicholson explodes at a clueless McGinnis and finally tells about the request for hush money. Mac is further dumbfounded when he sees the photo and claims a frame up while Nicholson admits wrong doing. Bill notes to Helen that the whole thing looks too neat and too perfect. They wonder who the tipster was.
