Robert Fishenauer is a supervisor at Fallston Prison. He has been talking to Gary, and now he is driving out to the old farmhouse by a back road in the hopes of avoiding any law enforcement surveillance. Gary told him that he’d hidden part of the ransom in the barn, telling him how he hid it the same way Bruno Hauptmann hid the ransom from the Lindbergh kidnapping. Robert finds a stack of money where Gary said it would be, behind boards where the roof meets the wall.

Before dawn the next morning, Gary gets sick in his cell. He claims he’s been poisoned. The guard assigned to him calls for his supervisor, Robert Fishenauer. Robert decides to take Gary to the prison hospital himself even though the other guards believe Gary is lying. He takes Gary to the basement. As they approach a security door that leads to the employee parking lot, Robert gives Gary his gun. Robert tells the guards to open the door, or Gary will kill him. The two men take Robert’s car, and a mile away, they change cars and drive to the farmhouse, where Gary has promised Robert more money. Gary asks Robert to take his restraints off, but Robert insists they stay on until he has his money.
