00:30It's all right, it's all right, it's all right, it's all right, it's all right, it's all right,

00:57it's all right.

00:59It's all right, darling, there is nothing to worry about.

01:06Could I see you for a moment, Mr. Parker?

01:13Well, I'll be fine.

01:17Come on.

01:19Sit down, Mr. Parker.

01:28Now then, old chap, I'm afraid it's not very good news.

01:33There's nothing seriously wrong, is there?

01:35You're going to have to take great care of your wife from now on.

01:39What is it?

01:40I'm afraid she has a heart condition that is dangerous.

01:49I never thought...

01:50One never does.

01:51She said nothing.

01:52Well, she probably wasn't aware of it herself at first.

01:55I'll give you a prescription for some tablets.

01:58It's up to you now, Mr. Parker.

02:01If you don't take good care of her, there's no telling what may happen.

02:49Thank you.

03:19Thank you.

03:49Ah, morning, darling.

04:07Good morning.

04:09Boiled egg, all right?

04:11Mm, fine.

04:15Did you sleep well?

04:16Mm, beautifully.

04:18You know, I never even heard you come in.

04:31What are these?

04:33Well, you know, the pills Dr. Carmichael gave me.

04:38Aren't they doing any good?

04:39Oh, marvellous.

04:50You know, I'm very angry with you.

04:53Why?

04:54For keeping it all to yourself for so long.

04:57Well, you know I don't like a fuss.

04:59Oh, John, you won't tell anyone about this, will you?

05:02Of course not.

05:03You promise?

05:04I understand.

05:11Will you be late again tonight?

05:14Well, I'll try not to be, darling, but we're so short-staffed.

05:21John, I don't want to be a nag, but I do hate it when you work in the evenings.

05:26Yes.

05:29Well, imagine how I hate it.

05:35Now, don't take me for granted.

05:37Oh, I don't, darling.

05:39If I were to ask you to take me away this weekend...

05:42Well, that's not fair.

05:44You know I can't.

05:45You mean you're afraid she'd find out?

05:56Look, Julie, if I tell you something in confidence, will you promise not to tell anybody?

06:03I suppose so.

06:06Ethel is gravely ill.

06:09What do you mean?

06:10She has a dangerous heart condition.

06:12Dangerous?

06:13She may die at any moment.

06:17You bastard.

06:21Yes.

06:23Terrible, isn't it?

06:26Still, at least she's in the very best hands.

06:51Yes, but in a case of death by natural causes.

07:12Now, how long would it take for a husband to inherit his wife's estate if no will has been made?

07:20What?

07:23Mm-hmm.

07:25Mm.

07:26I see.

07:28No, no, no, it's purely a hypothetical case.

07:31I'm very much obliged to you.

07:34Of course, if I need to.

07:36Thank you.

08:06Thank you.

08:36Oh, Ethel, snap out of it.

08:52All right, I'll say it again.

08:54I'm sorry.

08:55It was a stupid joke.

08:56Well, it was horrid.

08:57The sight of you in the gas mask, the uniform, the whole thing.

09:00Yes, but you've seen me in that before.

09:02Well, I was terrified.

09:04John...

09:05All right, all right.

09:08I'll throw it away.

09:11I'll throw it in the cellar.

09:14John, why did you lock the cellar door?

09:23Did I?

09:27Just bear with me, Julie.

09:31But that's the point.

09:33Ethel is worse.

09:35I think it could happen at any moment.

09:40Yeah.

09:42I don't think there's anything that doctors can do.

09:47I'll call you, love.

09:50Goodbye.

10:05Oh, Sheba!

10:07You silly thing.

10:16Oh!

10:26Ah, how is she, doctor?

10:28She's all right now, but I've told her to stay in bed for a while.

10:31Good.

10:34May I offer you a drink?

10:35No, thank you.

10:37Frankly, Mr. Parker, I'm very concerned.

10:39Oh, why?

10:41It would appear to me that you haven't given your wife the care and consideration she needs.

10:46I don't understand on earth what you mean.

10:48Mr. Parker, your wife is under sentence of death.

10:57Well, it's up to you how long she will live.

10:59I know.

11:00Look, Carmichael, I love my wife.

11:03Hello?

11:17Oh, John.

11:19What a lovely surprise.

11:21No, no, I'm fine, darling.

11:23I'm taking great care of myself.

11:26No, no, really, if I even have a twinge, I'll call him.

11:32Oh, that's sweet of you, dear.

11:35Goodbye.

12:02Goodbye.

12:32Goodbye.

13:02Oh!

13:22Oh!

13:42Oh!

14:02Oh!

14:30Oh!

14:40Oh!

14:58Oh!

15:03Oh!

15:04Oh, no!

15:05No!

15:07Oh, no!

15:08No!

15:09Oh!

15:10Oh, no!

15:11No!

15:12Oh, no!

15:13No!

15:15Oh, no!

15:17No!

15:31Oh, no!

15:52Please.

15:53Please help me, John!

15:54John, please!

15:55John!

15:56John.

15:57John!

15:58John!

15:59God!

16:00I'm sorry.

16:01I'm sorry, I'm sorry.

16:02Please stop.

16:03Please stop.

16:04God.

16:12John.

16:15Go.

16:16John.

16:17Go.

16:18Fuck.

16:19Fuck.

16:19Wait a minute.

16:20Wait a minute.

16:23I can't get over you.

16:24You don't have to come over here.

16:25You take my hands.

16:26Both hands.

16:27Give me that hand.

16:28Give me your hand.

16:29Give me your hand.

16:30Now, put your foot up on there.

16:32On there.

16:33On there.

16:34Now, go.

16:35That's it.

16:35Oh, you're all right now.

16:37You're all right now.

16:38You're all right.

16:39Come on, now.

16:40Come on, boy.

16:41Get up.

16:43That's right.

16:44That's right.

16:45Come on, now.

16:46Come on.

16:47That's it.

16:48That's it.

16:50Now, how long have you been down there?

16:53All day.

16:55All day?

16:57How on earth did you get down there?

16:59There were rats down there.

17:02Yes, now you know why I didn't want you to go down there.

17:05That's why I kept the door locked.

17:07But you didn't come home.

17:09Do you want me to call Dr. Carmichael?

17:12No.

17:13No.

17:14No.

17:15No.

17:16Come on.

17:17Ethel, my dear.

17:18Are you all right?

17:19Why?

17:20Shouldn't I be?

17:21Well, if only we had heard you weren't well.

17:25Do you wish people would stop fussing?

17:27No.

17:28No, I didn't mean that.

17:30I'm fine, really.

17:31It's sweet of you to ask.

17:33Well, in that case, we'd like you and John to come to dinner next Tuesday.

17:37Oh, we'd love to.

17:39Are you sure you're all right?

17:41Well, of course I am.

17:43Good.

17:44Then we'll look forward to seeing you both.

17:467 for 7.30?

17:48I'll, um, I'll check with John.

17:50Good.

17:52I nearly asked John last night.

17:55But we didn't like to disturb him.

17:57You saw John last night?

18:00Mm.

18:02He was two tables away with his secretary.

18:05Oh, Miss Nash.

18:07I suppose so.

18:09Oh, she's a lovely person.

18:10Do you know she's been with John's firm 22 years?

18:13Oh.

18:14Well, this must have been another one.

18:16This one wasn't born 22 years ago.

18:19Oh.

18:22She was a very pretty girl.

18:27I'm sorry if I spoke out of school.

18:30No, no, forget it.

18:32I'll tell John you saw him.

18:35I'll see you on Tuesday.

18:37Goodbye, my dear.

18:39Goodbye.

18:52What did the doctor say?

18:54What can he say? There's nothing he can do.

18:57You shouldn't really be here, should you?

18:59But I had to see you.

19:02You should spend a few evenings with her.

19:05Oh, I know.

19:09I will.

19:22John, you're not keeping anything from me, are you?

19:28Like what?

19:30I don't know.

19:32Perhaps something that Dr. Carmichael didn't want me to know?

19:35Don't.

19:37Whatever next.

19:47I think I'll go up to bed.

19:51Yes, I won't be long, dear.

19:53I'll just finish this chapter.

19:55Oh, don't tell me who did the murder.

19:57I want to read it after you.

20:21Good night.

20:51Good night.

21:21Shhh!

21:51Good night.

22:21Good night.

22:45John.

22:46John, wake up. Wake up.

22:48What's the matter?

22:50It's coming from downstairs.

22:52What is?

22:53That music.

22:54Music?

22:55I can't hear any music.

22:57Oh, go back to sleep, darling, will you?

23:00What it is, I tell you.

23:03There's somebody downstairs.

23:13Darling, there's nobody downstairs.

23:16Now go back to sleep.

23:18There you are.

23:24Perhaps we've got ghosts.

23:27John?

23:48Oh, John.

23:50John, I'm frightened.

23:51Darling, it's just your nerves. I can't hear a thing.

23:54Oh, please.

23:55Now, go back to sleep.

23:56And see what it is.

23:57I can't stand it.

23:59Ethel, dear, control yourself.

24:06It stopped.

24:08Good.

24:10Now, perhaps we can all get some sleep.

24:15Where are you going now?

24:16I must find out.

24:17All right.

24:18If it's so important, I'll go.

24:26Oh, my.

24:56Ah!

25:26Ah!

25:41Hello?

25:43Yes, speaking.

25:45It's me.

25:47Something terrible has happened.

25:49He's fallen down the stairs.

25:51I think he's broken his neck.

25:53My God.

25:55Is he walking?

25:56Probably.

25:58Or perhaps the light didn't work.

26:00Have you called a doctor?

26:01No, not yet.

26:02My dear, I hope you're not too upset.

26:04Remember, you're heart trouble.

26:08What heart trouble, darling?

26:11What indeed.

26:12And don't forget to replace the light bulb before the police arrive.

26:15Oh, and one other thing.

26:17I love you, Angel.

26:20And I love you so much.

26:24When will I see you again, darling?

26:33Ah!

26:54Ah!

27:24Ah!
