Rexdouts Niro Wolf. Starring Maver Moore as Nero Wolf and Dawn Franks as Archie Goodwin. Today's episode Christmas Party with special guest stars Marty Meriden, Linda Sorensen, Patricia

Hamilton, Gordon Thompson, and John Granick. I'm sorry, Mr. Wolf, but I told you two days ago that I had a date for Friday afternoon

and you said it was all right, so I'll drive you to Long Island on Saturday or Sunday.

That won't do, Archie. Mr. Thompson will be at Mr. Hewitt's place only until Saturday noon.

He's the best orchid hybridizer in England and I'm grateful to be invited to spend a few hours with him.

We should leave here about 1230.

I really am sorry but I have to keep that date Friday afternoon.

It's a Christmas party at the office of Kurt Botvile.

Now you remember him, we did a job for him a few months ago? Yes. You may not remember a

member of his staff named Margot Dickie, but I do. I promised her that I'd come to the

party.

Oh boy a party I have only one opportunity then take it your idea that a car is a death trap if I'm not driving is unsound you can take a taxi

I hope to get some useful information from Mr

Thompson and you will take notes not if I'm not there he would secretary knows orca terms as well as I do

and so do you.

Archie, how many times in the past year have I asked you to drive me somewhere?

If you call it asking, maybe 18 or 20 not excessive surely if my feeling that you alone

are to be trusted at the wheel of a car is an aberration then I have it we will

leave for mister hu's place Friday at 1230.

All right.

All right. I didn't intend to spring this on you till tomorrow,

but I guess it will have to be now.
