In this episode, Elyse floors country singer Clint Black with the information she uncovers about his book of wanted posters. Eduardo links a chunk of molten metal to the B-25 Bomber that crashed into the Empire State Building. Did we find a slide of Bettie Page that somehow escaped the censorship of the 1950s? Finally, a 6-foot metal bar tells the story behind the original iconic Hollywood Sign.
