The Gay Falcon (1941)
Nadat hij het detective vak heeft verlaten voor de veiligere grenzen van persoonlijke verzekeringen, is Gay Laurence gedwongen terug te keren naar zijn speurwerk. Samen met sidekick Jonathan 'Goldie' Locke stemt hij ermee in om een reeks overvallen op thuisfeestjes te onderzoeken die socialite Maxine Wood tot slachtoffer hebben gemaakt. Het duo krijgt meer dan ze hadden verwacht wanneer er een moord wordt gepleegd in het huis van Wood, maar Lawrence vindt nog steeds tijd om de jonkvrouw te romantiseren.
