When Charlie confronts Spinner about the investigation surrounding the pilfered evidence boxes, Spinner kills him. To escape, Spinner puts the body in a rigged shipping crate and dumps the body at a railroad depot. Spinner then exits the crate at a later stop and picks it up and burns it. Returning to his shop, he finds that his clerk has sold a record that could put him in the electric chair. Spinner sets out to find the young girl who purchased the record.
