Johnny Dollar #251, "The Valentine Matter Ep 1,"
Johnny Dollar finds himself with unexpected free time in New Orleans after a case involving a bellhop who stole a diamond necklace and ran off with the hotel manager's wife wraps up quickly. While killing time at a bar on Burgundy Street, Dollar recognizes a solitary, gray-haired man as Dan Valentine, a former prohibition-era gangster who recently finished serving 13 years for income tax evasion. Valentine insists he's gone straight and just wants to live quietly in New Orleans without police harassment. Dollar believes him, and the two spend a pleasant evening together dining at Jimmy Moran's and making the rounds of local clubs.
The next morning, Inspector DeBaca of the New Orleans police calls Dollar in, revealing they've been watching Valentine since his arrival three months ago. DeBaca questions whether Dollar had any business dealings with Valentine, but their conversation is interrupted by shocking news: Dan Valentine has been found on a sidewalk with two bullet wounds in his shoulder. When questioned, Valentine claims he was cleaning his gun, but Dollar and DeBaca know he's lying about what really happened.
