What an dope......
He's got a beautiful blonde (Janis Carter) with $250,000 cash in her bag and he turns her in to the police! I would have left town with the woman and the cash.

shareOh, so you'd leave poor old Edgar Buchanan there to fry, would you?! That's cold.
What would Bix say?
"Fortunately, I keep my feathers numbered for just such an emergency."
Hey, didnt Paula (Janis Carter) say she would hire a good lawyer for him? Anyway I would rather be sleeping in a nice clean bed with Paula, than in a sleeping bag in the mountains with Edgar Buchanan!! LOL!!

Well, I'll assume that the OP isn't being serious, but just to point out what running off with the blonde would entail:
1. After swearing you wouldn't leave him in the lurch, you're leaving Jeff Cunningham in jail on a murder charge. This is the man who hired you out of blind trust in you, and who staked you to unnecessarily generous terms in the mining deal because of that trust. He'd be an innocent man up for a capital crime: with a good lawyer, he may or may not swing (and his incriminating laundry bag was found in the dead man's car and you know it's your fault).
2. You'd be spending the rest of your life directly profiting off the murder of Steve Price.
3. You be spending the rest of your life holding and professing your love to a woman who betrayed and murdered her last lover (who she knew was married to begin with) for cash.
" Oh Mike your insulting! "

Well, nobody's perfect.
Absurdity: A Statement or belief inconsistent with my opinion.
And you would spend every day wondering if she was going to bump you off so she could have all the money for herself.
shareWhat Marlburian wrote above is my thought. Apart from the morality of it all, thinking "Well, she totally played one guy, killed him but *I'll* be different" isn't smart thinking.
Good movie, enjoyed it.
...And you'd spend the rest of your life (veiled warning!) drinking coffee made by a woman who keeps spice marked "POISON" right next to the coffee service. That might even make a big dope like Mike slightly aware and nervous.
shareLol hell yeah me too

I would have left town with the woman and the cash.Have you forgotten about Steve Price? He had the blonde and the money; they even had the perfect plan of escape. How'd that work out for him? Even if he was tempted, which he was not, Mike knew far too much to fall for it. Paula was involved with Steve a long time yet she had no trouble knocking him off. She had no trouble leading Mike to believe he'd done it and, though he didn't know it, she was just as willing, able, and ready to kill him.
I would have left town with the woman and the cash.
death penalty back then.
