Frank was still trying to "shake" the "frail" image that he'd gotten as part of his "crooner" career before this. So trying to prove he was more of a "tough guy" that his old reputation, which led to him taking as many "tough guy" roles as he could get.

I went to Vegas once. Did not gamble. The people we were with wanted to party all night, so we were mostly there to have very expensive drinks at very expensive restaurants. And watch people make messes of themselves. The People watchin' in crazy.

I was almost a professional gambler. Really. Vegas, Macau.... Then one day, I lost the magic. It was weird. I'm being serious too! I used to be on TV in Japan doing gambling. Really.

The funniest thing about Vegas: Marla and I went together. It was Halloween. But we didn't want to party all night, so we went to bed early like we do, and got up super early.

You know what's completely empty and quiet at 5:30 AM? Vegas. There were joggers on the strip, even. It was wild.

Woah! Very cool. I'm terrible at gambling. I don't believe in bad luck, but... I've never won any gambling I've ever done. I think I have bad intuition in that area.

You'll get your mojo back at Roxor.

I also went to Vegas only once and gambled little. Did stay at the Luxor for real, though! It was pretty neat. I mean.... a glass pyramid?!

This is weird. But when you gamble, you need to have confidence. If you don't you will always lose.

The Dimension X version of this story is a little different, and not nearly as high quality. And the story beats are a little different. I like this version, but as mentioned earlier, all the archived versions of this story have a big tape glitch near the end, and one scene is incomprehensible. So I've patched in the same scene from the Dimension X version. So this is a more "complete" rendition of the story, unlike the one you'll find online in most places.

Hmmmm. Maybe I'll try again, but mostly, I just like to look at strange buildings and have a few drinks with Marla, so we had a great time in Vegas. Though we stayed in some time-share with our friends that was a VERY long walk to the nearest interesting place to go.

One thing I thought was weird about Gilligan's Island even when I was a kid, the old rich guy (mr. Magoo) and his wife... If they really were millionaires, they own their own boat, right?

Well, sometimes you put your resources in different places. I'm sure they were more interested in real estate, or something dumb like that.

That's actually the only sort of logical explanation I've heard in my life. You don't know how much that troubled this 8 year old boy.... for years!

You can sort of hear the "sound difference" in this recording, where the transcription disc was most likely "flipped."

I always thought it was weirder that The Professor could build nearly anything so their island life was comfortable... except a decent boat that could get them off the island? At least Lost did a better job of explaining that one.

The first "Island Nuclear test" was on July 1946. The original version of this story aired in 1950... but this story was very current events at the time this was being heard.

That would be a Dimestore episode. The professor, hits on Mrs. Howell, they hook up and plan and kill Mr. Howell.

I should revise: while they started "official tests" in 1946, obviously the bombs we dropped on Japan were also influencing stories like this.
