Volvamos al viejo cine del barrio donde tantos recuerdos hermosos cultivamos. Muchas gracias por sumarse...Y síganme los buenos...!!

00:05:54The chief superintendent says I have to go down there at once
00:05:56Well I'd rather have gone with that stamp in me pocket
00:05:58Evening doctor
00:06:00Evening inspector, I was expecting you'd be along
00:06:02You medical men know everything don't you
00:06:04What have we got here
00:06:05There about half an hour
00:06:06There was a deep perforating wound in the left lumbar region
00:06:09Penetrating the lumbar muscles and entering the nephritic area
00:06:12Causing renal hemorrhage, acute anemia, hypopiesia
00:06:16What was all that?
00:06:17Let him throw a knife in the kidneys
00:06:18Hypopiesia
00:06:20Well if you don't want me I'll go and make my report
00:06:22I don't have to, good night
00:06:23Good night
00:06:23Well, at 8.35pm on the evening of the 17th inst
00:06:27I was proceeding in a southerly direction
00:06:29Cut out the course and get on with the pedo
00:06:31Found by the landlady sir
00:06:33Can't locate the instrument, what done it?
00:06:36The lady of the house reports deceased portmanteau's missing
00:06:39Name?
00:06:40James Henry sir, according to that receipt, produced
00:06:4219 pounds, 17 and sixpence on him sir, produced
00:06:46Better keep an armed guard over that
00:06:47And a piece of jork sir, produced
00:06:49Bring in the landlady
00:06:51Right, sir
00:06:52Well I don't think much of his choice of apartments
00:06:56I wonder what he was
00:06:58Hotel porter
00:06:58Hotel porter, I thought that
00:07:00How do you know?
00:07:01This piece of chalk, it's got blacking on it
00:07:03He used it to chalk the room numbers on the boats he cleaned
00:07:06See?
00:07:06Oh, marvellous
00:07:08All life's problems solved
00:07:10I have been wrong
00:07:11Last week's football pools, for instance
00:07:13That?
00:07:13Well the whole of skull and jaw couldn't deduce what chose he'll do next
00:07:16Hmm, this room hasn't been dusty for days
00:07:19I wonder why
00:07:21I can tell you why
00:07:22I couldn't get in, see
00:07:23How's that?
00:07:24Kept his room lot
00:07:25Mysterious bloke he was
00:07:27That tight lip, he'd have to have a shoe on to eat a banana
00:07:30No, no, no, that's all right
00:07:31Oh no, it ain't all right
00:07:32I've never had any trouble with the police before
00:07:34You surprise me
00:07:35How long has he been here?
00:07:37Three days
00:07:38Came in the night before last
00:07:39And now look at him
00:07:41If I'd have known that was going to have neither cleared him out straight, I would
00:07:44Well, I don't think you had this in mind when he came here
00:07:46Your inspector
00:07:48Oh, look what I've got
00:07:49Letters
00:07:50Mademoiselle Heloise de Parmentier
00:07:52Oh, cherche la femme
00:07:53How much?
00:07:54In French, for there's usually a woman in the case
00:07:56Paris Postmark
00:07:57Yes, it's a French, um, stamp, all right?
00:08:01Here
00:08:01Do you know anything about this, uh, what's her name?
00:08:04Mademoiselle Heloise de Parmentier
00:08:06Yes, the tenant before him
00:08:08Oh
00:08:08And a nice, quiet lady she was, too
00:08:10Well, did he have any visitors?
00:08:12Visitors?
00:08:13What kind of place did he take this for?
00:08:14Well, if he lived alone, he had no visitors, and there was no weapon, it's in the murder, it's a blinking miracle
00:08:18Oh, for me
00:08:19Oh, I did hear the door go when I brought the supper up
00:08:22Oh?
00:08:22It must have been him that pinched the bag
00:08:24Well, how do you know the bag was gone if he couldn't get in?
00:08:26Because I saw it come in with him, and it ain't here now
00:08:28Huh, what do you think I was giving my head for?
00:08:31I'd rather not specify
00:08:32How big was the bag?
00:08:33Oh, the kind easy to get away with on rent day
00:08:36Hello
00:08:37Suddenly you've been taking all this metal piece lately
00:08:39Could it have been the bag?
00:08:41No, no, this is a clean round space in the dust
00:08:43Oh, oh, Hercules
00:08:44Hercules?
00:08:45Him with the muscles, my statue
00:08:47She means Hercules
00:08:48Was it valuable?
00:08:49Valuable?
00:08:50I'd wait a couple of stones
00:08:51What was it made of?
00:08:52Oh, I know something
00:08:53I see
00:08:55A bloke's murdered
00:08:56And 19 quid left in his pocket
00:08:58But a heavy statue and a suitcase were pinched
00:09:02What do you make of that?
00:09:03Oh, and simple enough, Inspector
00:09:05I can reconstruct the whole thing
00:09:07Oh, go on
00:09:07Well, now, you see
00:09:08These statues are always hollow
00:09:10And somebody had put a roll of banknotes inside
00:09:11What's that?
00:09:12Psst, woman
00:09:13Now, the thief knew it was there
00:09:14And came in to bargain the place
00:09:15He put a statue in the bag
00:09:16And the deceased came in and caught him
00:09:18Struggled, he grabs the bag
00:09:20And stabbed this poor bloke in the kidneys with it
00:09:22Wrap up
00:09:23Sergeant
00:09:24Sir
00:09:24Any ponds, rivers, canals about here?
00:09:26There's a well shop just beyond the dog and right
00:09:28We'll get a boat and dragging irons quick
00:09:30Yes, sir
00:09:30Arkham O
00:09:31What about my statue and my banknotes?
00:09:33What are you going to do about that?
00:09:34I'm going fishing
00:09:35Where's Sergeant Bingham now?
00:09:39I think that's them just coming in, sir
00:09:41Well, about time too
00:09:42They've been gone about a couple of hours
00:09:44What do you think, Sergeant?
00:09:46One and a half the well sharp at the boat
00:09:47All right, come along here
00:09:49Right, sir
00:09:50I don't know why these things always have to happen on a cold night
00:09:52Well, we'd better turn it up until daylight
00:09:56And we'll get more light on the scene
00:09:57Keep the boat steady, see, look
00:10:03Yeah
00:10:04Come on, this is no time for bathing
00:10:11Oh, here we are
00:10:12Wait a minute
00:10:13Someone has caught my foot
00:10:14All right, well, leave your foot behind
00:10:16Go on
00:10:17I can't move it, sir
00:10:18Just a minute
00:10:19Come on, come on
00:10:23I've got it
00:10:27Bless my soul, so you have
00:10:29I thought I'd find it here
00:10:31Well, don't stand there
00:10:31Bring it along
00:10:32Come on
00:10:32Right
00:10:32Get my hand, Sergeant
00:10:35Right
00:10:35I'll put it up here
00:10:36That's all right
00:10:37I had a feeling it was a bag when I fell over it
00:10:39Yeah
00:10:39Oh, look
00:10:40Here's Hercules
00:10:42Hello
00:10:42Here's a knife
00:10:44Yeah, that could have done it
00:10:46And if I'm not mistaken, it's a leather worker's knife
00:10:49No, I thought that
00:10:50Oh, maybe, what's more
00:10:51Whoever he is, he bought the blades in Sheffield and fitted them to his own handles
00:10:55That's right
00:10:56Why would he do that?
00:10:58Oh, I don't know
00:10:58Like to work with something odd, I suppose
00:11:00Like me choosing you for an assistant
00:11:02Anyway, it'll be easy to trace
00:11:05Like a three-cornered cape or a tuppeny blue Mauritius
00:11:07I wonder what this is
00:11:08What's an attache case, Inspector?
00:11:15Of course, strike me up in love of a tree
00:11:17Do you know what this is?
00:11:18It's an attache case
00:11:19It's the budget bag, look at that
00:11:21What?
00:11:22The Chancellor of the Exchequer's budget bag
00:11:24You mean
00:11:25You mean the Chancellor of the Exchequer murdered that man
00:11:28Oh, gosh, what a case
00:11:29Don't be silly, it'll be stolen
00:11:31Oh, there won't be a schmuzzle about this
00:11:33Why would anyone want to steal a name to budget bag?
00:11:35Well, it wasn't anybody when it was stolen
00:11:36It had the budget secrets in it
00:11:38Well, all the same
00:11:39Yes, and the budget speech is this week
00:11:41Here, we've got to get a move on
00:11:42I'll bring this along, will I?
00:11:43No, no, no
00:11:43There's an Inspector Hornley to see you, sir
00:11:52Did you say Inspector?
00:11:54Yes, sir, from Scotland Yard
00:11:55Well, what on earth?
00:11:57Show him in
00:11:58Yes, sir
00:11:59Inspector Hornley, sir
00:12:03Good evening, sir
00:12:04Good evening
00:12:05I trust your pardon the intrusion, sir
00:12:07A little matter of lost property
00:12:09That's very kind of you, but I'm not aware
00:12:10Your budget bag, sir
00:12:11Budget bag?
00:12:12Yes, sir
00:12:13But rarely, Inspector
00:12:14I should have thought a man from Scotland Yard
00:12:15Would have earned an official bag when he saw one
00:12:17There are bags within bags, sir
00:12:18Now, sir, what about that?
00:12:21Well, that's my budget bag
00:12:22That's what I was saying, sir
00:12:23Where'd you find it?
00:12:24In the workshop
00:12:24The workshop?
00:12:25Yes, sir
00:12:25Fantastic
00:12:26Just a moment
00:12:27There's my bag
00:12:42God, blind O'Reilly
00:12:43You really are, Inspector Hornley
00:12:45Well, I forget it
00:12:46You wanted it myself, sir
00:12:47Would you mind opening it?
00:12:49Certainly
00:12:50Anything missing, sir?
00:13:03Nothing whatever
00:13:04I say
00:13:06It certainly is a remarkable imitation
00:13:08Dents, have you any explanation of this?
00:13:12Aye, sir
00:13:12No
00:13:12Just doesn't make sense to me
00:13:14Why anyone should want to make a replica of my bag
00:13:16I simply cannot understand
00:13:17But they wouldn't have received me
00:13:19I'd know that bag anywhere
00:13:20Is that a sure bag, sir?
00:13:21Of course it is
00:13:22You're quite sure, sir?
00:13:24My dear Inspector
00:13:24I may be only a politician
00:13:25But I can identify my own property
00:13:27How, sir?
00:13:28Well, by that stain, for one thing
00:13:29It's tea
00:13:30I spilled some on it this afternoon
00:13:31Yes, sir
00:13:32But that's the dud
00:13:33I mean the duplicate
00:13:33What, this?
00:13:34Yes, sir
00:13:34Look
00:13:35That's astounding
00:13:38Now, sir
00:13:41Where did you spill this tea?
00:13:44The place called the Pheasant Inn
00:13:45I usually drop in there
00:13:47On my way down here
00:13:48For a cup of tea each day
00:13:49I think I've got it
00:13:50Someone had switched the bags
00:13:52And when you were having your tea at the inn
00:13:54If the duplicate you have with you
00:13:55That accounts for the stain
00:13:56Yes, but the real one
00:13:57Where was that?
00:13:58Well, you see, sir
00:13:58The thief was having a look at the documents
00:14:00And when he learned all he wanted to know
00:14:01He returned your property
00:14:02In other words
00:14:03Someone is in possession of the budget secrets
00:14:05I'm afraid so, sir
00:14:06I don't like that, Inspector
00:14:08Well, I'm not exactly ecstatic myself
00:14:11Do you realize how serious it is?
00:14:13I make my speech the day after tomorrow
00:14:15And I can't change the budget
00:14:15You must find this man
00:14:17Very good, sir
00:14:17I'll go down to the Pheasant Inn right away
00:14:19It might be a good idea
00:14:20If I go along with the inspector, sir
00:14:21I'll be able to show him
00:14:22Exactly where you were sitting
00:14:23Excellent
00:14:23Mr. Dench is my private secretary
00:14:25He might be able to help you
00:14:25No doubt, sir
00:14:26Fine, I'll get my hand
00:14:27Oh, by the way, sir
00:14:28Was there any particular item in this budget
00:14:30Which might make someone anxious
00:14:31To get an early tip?
00:14:32My good man
00:14:32One glance at those papers
00:14:34Would enable anybody
00:14:34With a knowledge of finance
00:14:35To make an enormous fortune
00:14:36Aha
00:14:37At the same time
00:14:37He might do irreparable damage
00:14:38To this country's credit
00:14:39And banking systems
00:14:40Well, in that case
00:14:41I'd better get hold of him
00:14:42Before he lays hands
00:14:42On my post office balance
00:14:43Oh, um
00:14:44Have you any idea, sir
00:14:46Who could have substituted the article?
00:14:48Not in the least
00:14:49But it seems incredible to me
00:14:50That anybody should be allowed
00:14:51To rob the chancellor
00:14:52Of the exchequer with impunity
00:14:53Quite so, sir
00:14:54Generally the other way round
00:14:55Pheasant Inn
00:14:57Let me speak to Miss Gordon, please
00:14:59Hold on a minute
00:15:00Is that for me?
00:15:01No, Mr. Gordon
00:15:02It's for Miss Anne
00:15:02Oh, it's very nice person
00:15:05Hello
00:15:06Hello, Peter
00:15:07I haven't time to explain now
00:15:09But the police are coming down
00:15:09To your place
00:15:10And I'll be with them
00:15:10All right
00:15:12Yes
00:15:13I'll come in and play cards
00:15:14Another evening
00:15:14Right
00:15:15Goodbye
00:15:16I'll be with you in a moment, Inspector
00:15:18Well, hurry up, then
00:15:19Hello
00:15:20Hold on to what game he plays, sir
00:15:21Rummy
00:15:22Our Peter seems to be a man
00:15:24A few words
00:15:25I can't understand what he meant
00:15:27That's because he's a politician
00:15:29Bill
00:15:31Hmm?
00:15:32Have you had any trouble
00:15:33With anyone lately?
00:15:34Is this just sisterly affection
00:15:36Or curiosity?
00:15:37But have you?
00:15:38Only with the bank manager
00:15:39And he wouldn't look on an overdraft
00:15:41As an ordinary debt
00:15:42Bill, I'm serious
00:15:43The police run their way down
00:15:46How do you know?
00:15:47Peter's just told me
00:15:48Did he say why?
00:15:52No
00:15:52What can they want at this time of night?
00:15:56Oh, they probably want a drink
00:15:58Are you sure it's nothing you've been doing?
00:16:00Why should it be me?
00:16:01Do I look like a criminal?
00:16:02Oh, don't be silly
00:16:03Only you have
00:16:05An unfortunate habit
00:16:06Of getting yourself into jams
00:16:07Go on
00:16:08Rake up everything I've ever done
00:16:09You make me tired
00:16:10Am I intruding?
00:16:19Well, I wouldn't exactly call it that
00:16:20I don't understand
00:16:22Don't you?
00:16:23Well, think it over
00:16:23You'll probably get my meaning
00:16:25Is something the matter, Miss Gordon?
00:16:30No, nothing
00:16:31Did you want to speak to me?
00:16:34Well, I thought perhaps
00:16:35That I might be of some assistance
00:16:36That's very kind of you
00:16:38But really, it isn't anything
00:16:40But if the police are coming down
00:16:41Then you did hear what we were saying
00:16:44I happened to pick up the extension phone
00:16:46I couldn't help hearing what Mr. Dench said
00:16:49Will I be locking up, Miss?
00:16:51Not yet, Alfred
00:16:52We're expecting the police
00:16:53The police?
00:16:54And what are they after?
00:16:55I don't know
00:16:56Have you anything on your conscience?
00:16:58Near a thing, Miss
00:16:59When will they be here?
00:17:01In a few minutes
00:17:01All right, Miss
00:17:02I'll keep an eye out for them
00:17:04Good evening, sir
00:17:09Good evening
00:17:10Good evening, Mr. Dench
00:17:13Quite a nice wee pub, Miss
00:17:15Oh, wee pubs are nice
00:17:16Given the time and place
00:17:17Speaking of time
00:17:19Have you got an extension here?
00:17:20No, sir, why?
00:17:22Well, it's after hours, you know
00:17:23Oh, there isn't a customer in the place for all that
00:17:25We kept open for you
00:17:26What, you expected us?
00:17:27Not me, Miss Anne did
00:17:28Who's she?
00:17:29Miss Gordon, sir
00:17:30She owns the hotel
00:17:30And she wouldn't want anyone better
00:17:32Did she say what we were coming about?
00:17:34She did not
00:17:35And I told her there was no knowing
00:17:36What the police does be after
00:17:37Well, sometimes even the police themselves
00:17:38Don't know what they does be
00:17:39I mean, do be
00:17:40Are after
00:17:41Will I tell you here, please?
00:17:47Have we heard of telepathy, Sergeant?
00:17:49Telepathy?
00:17:49No, it's what we in Scotland call the second sight
00:17:53Lots of us possess the gift
00:17:55Nearly all the savage races have it
00:17:56And that's true
00:17:57What do you mean?
00:17:58I make a remark to the Chancellor of the Exchequer
00:18:00And it's heard miles away out here at the Pheasant Inn
00:18:03How could that happen?
00:18:06Look here, Inspector
00:18:06You don't have to waste any more time
00:18:08I telephone Miss Gordon
00:18:09Well, I don't want to seem inquisitive
00:18:10But I'd like to know why
00:18:12Well, she happens to be a friend of mine
00:18:13And I wanted to protect her
00:18:14Superfluous, Mr. Dench
00:18:16I'm no terror to the female sex
00:18:18That's right
00:18:19Good evening
00:18:23Good evening, Miss
00:18:24And this is Inspector Hornley, Miss Gordon
00:18:27I must apologize for this late call, Miss
00:18:28But I've come to investigate the stealing of the budget bag
00:18:31From the Chancellor of the Exchequer this afternoon
00:18:33Peter, is this true?
00:18:34Yes
00:18:35And the Inspector believes that it took place here in the hotel
00:18:37But how could it happen?
00:18:40Well, that's what I'm here to find out, Miss
00:18:41Are you the owner?
00:18:43Yes, my brother's a sort of partner with me
00:18:45What sort of partner?
00:18:47Well, he has other interests that keep him busy
00:18:50He's away from home quite a lot
00:18:51Then you run the hotel yourself?
00:18:54Well, Miss Gordon has an experienced manager
00:18:55A Mr. Wittons
00:18:56Thank you
00:18:57Were you here this afternoon?
00:18:59Yes
00:19:00Did you happen to notice some tea spilt on the Chancellor's bag?
00:19:04Everybody did
00:19:04He was quite upset about it
00:19:06I suppose you don't remember where he was sitting, do you?
00:19:08Yes, I do
00:19:09I'll show you
00:19:09Thank you
00:19:10This was the table, wasn't it, Peter?
00:19:21Mm-hmm
00:19:21Mr. Wittons came in with the Chancellor and then went away
00:19:24Would you mind taking the same chair the Chancellor used?
00:19:26He sat here and I sat opposite
00:19:33I see
00:19:33Sergeant, give Mr. Dents the budget bag
00:19:36Right, sir
00:19:37You might place it in the same spot as it was this afternoon
00:19:39That's about right, as far as I remember
00:19:44Were there many people in the room at the time?
00:19:47About a dozen, I suppose
00:19:48Nobody sat anywhere near us, except
00:19:50Except who?
00:19:52The bill
00:19:53Mr. Gordon
00:19:55He sat there
00:19:56I'll remember that
00:19:59But surely the Chancellor wasn't wearing his coat at the table
00:20:02No, he took it off before
00:20:04What about his hat?
00:20:08Where did he take his coat off?
00:20:09Why, out in the hall
00:20:10I'd like to see the exact spot
00:20:12And the Chancellor always carried the bag himself, eh?
00:20:22That's right
00:20:23Yeah, that he hadn't done it as a battalion, he was going to...
00:20:28It was over there where Alfred is standing now
00:20:30That the Chancellor took off his coat
00:20:32Oh, yeah
00:20:32But would you mind showing me exactly what he did?
00:20:34All right
00:20:37Now then
00:20:38We came in together
00:20:40I stepped over to that side of the table to speak to Wittons
00:20:42The Chancellor moved over here and gave his bag to the porter
00:20:47Then he took off his coat
00:20:48The porter gave him back the bag
00:20:52And we went into the dining room
00:20:53Is that right, porter?
00:20:54Quite right, sir
00:20:55Only it wasn't me
00:20:56It is me assistant and understudy, so to speak
00:20:59Henry, his name is
00:21:00Henry, that's the man
00:21:01Henry, that's the man
00:21:02Your colleague, so to speak
00:21:04That's right, sir
00:21:05He always makes a dart at the important people
00:21:07Feature to the tip, eh?
00:21:09Where does he make his dart from?
00:21:11Where else but there?
00:21:15What about that door?
00:21:16Where does that lead to?
00:21:18It doesn't lead anywhere
00:21:19It's just a cupboard where Henry just be keeping his brooms and brushes
00:21:39Do you happen to know where Henry is now?
00:21:42I do not
00:21:43All I know is I'm doing his work
00:21:44And he doesn't live on the premises?
00:21:46Oh, yes, he does
00:21:47But every night since Sunday
00:21:48He's gone up to his sister's place in London
00:21:50With Mr. Wittons' permission
00:21:52Where is his sister's place?
00:21:53Sure, I don't know
00:21:54But it's somewhere in London
00:21:55Miss Gordon
00:21:56Do you mind if I take a look at this man in Henry's room?
00:21:59Not at all
00:22:00Alfred will show you the way
00:22:01Thank you, Miss
00:22:02This way, Inspector
00:22:03Or, um
00:22:04Take the budget back to the car
00:22:05We'll leave with the driver
00:22:06Right, sir
00:22:09Who are you?
00:22:13Well, I'm not the under porter
00:22:14And I take it the same applies to you
00:22:15Oh, Mr. Wittons
00:22:16This is one of the inspectors from Scotland Yard
00:22:18The manager of the place
00:22:19May I ask what you want up here?
00:22:20Sure, hasn't the Chancellor of the Ex-Chalker
00:22:22Lost his little bag full of taxes?
00:22:23But he sent this gentleman to find it for him
00:22:25The under porter's bedroom is rather a curious place to look
00:22:27About as curious as finding the manager in it
00:22:29Well, are you the valet as well?
00:22:31I'm just going to lock up the petrol pub
00:22:33I'm just going to lock up the petrol pub
00:22:35I'm just going to lock up the petrol pub
00:22:37I'm just going to lock up the petrol pump, Inspector
00:22:40There's been a lot of petrol stealing from cars and pumps around here
00:22:43And we like to assist the police in the prevention of crime
00:22:46That's a very laudable attitude, Mr. Wittons
00:22:48But perhaps you wouldn't mind answering me a few questions
00:22:50I have no objection to helping the forces of the law
00:22:53How long has Henry been here?
00:22:55About six months
00:22:56Did you engage him?
00:22:57I'm the manager of this hotel, so naturally I engage the servants
00:23:00References all right?
00:23:01They satisfied me?
00:23:02No doubt
00:23:03I think that'll be all, Mr. Wittons
00:23:05Don't let me keep him from your petrol pump
00:23:07Oh, yes
00:23:08Of course
00:23:13Smart businessman, your manager
00:23:14Keeps an eye on everything, I should think
00:23:16If you mean he's one of them fellas that does be snooping all over the place
00:23:19Hoping to catch you on the hop, then you're right
00:23:21Will this get you into trouble?
00:23:23I don't think so
00:23:25They can't possibly think I'm involved
00:23:27I didn't mean that
00:23:28I was thinking of your job
00:23:30Darling, don't worry about that
00:23:31The main thing is to keep you out of it
00:23:34Do you know anything about what Henry does in his spare time?
00:23:36Diven a thing
00:23:37He's never the one to talk a lot
00:23:38Ah
00:23:43That seems to settle it
00:23:44Do you mean Henry done it?
00:23:46What'll I say to him when he comes back?
00:23:48When do you expect him back?
00:23:49He knows if he isn't back in time for the boots and knives at the crack of dawn tomorrow
00:23:52There'll be the curse of Cromwell waiting for him
00:23:54You know Willis by any chance, are you?
00:23:56Me?
00:23:57From Wales?
00:23:58With me name a Callathon?
00:23:59What kind of a detective do you call yourself?
00:24:01I'll be able to tell you that tomorrow night
00:24:24Theites my boy, the budget doesn't match
00:24:40No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
00:25:10No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
00:25:40No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
00:25:42No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
00:25:44No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
00:25:46No, no, no, no, no, no.
00:25:48No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
00:25:50No, no, no, no.
00:25:52No, no, no, no, no.
00:25:54No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
00:25:56No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
00:25:58No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
00:26:00No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
00:26:02Well, you're a bit late for the first and a bit premature for the second.
00:26:06Here, Inspector, come here and look at what I found.
00:26:09Good evening, sir.
00:26:10Good evening.
00:26:11Who's the sergeant?
00:26:12Well, he says he's a travelling representative of the textile industry.
00:26:15And in my opinion, he's pretty strong in fabrications.
00:26:18Your sparring partner doubts my bona fide, sir.
00:26:20And who wouldn't?
00:26:21I found him cowering behind the curtains.
00:26:22I feel perfectly certain Inspector Hornley will be satisfied with my explanation.
00:26:26How do you know my name?
00:26:27Well, I must have seen you before, sir.
00:26:30And I always remember faces, even ordinary ones.
00:26:34Evidently, you don't remember me.
00:26:36I always go on the motto that some things are best forgotten,
00:26:39even if they can't be forgiven.
00:26:41Are you staying in this hotel?
00:26:42Yes, as a matter of fact, I'm hoping to have a few words with Mr. Gordon.
00:26:46Ah, where is Mr. Gordon?
00:26:48In the bar, Inspector.
00:26:49I'll take you along.
00:26:50Thank you, it isn't necessary.
00:26:52I never had any difficulty in finding my way to a bar yet.
00:26:54That's right.
00:26:55Here, you try and get some interesting facts on the textile trade.
00:26:58They'll look well in your notebook.
00:26:59I will, sir.
00:26:59I'm just dying to interrogate them.
00:27:06Hello.
00:27:07Am I right in supposing all the gentlemen from Scotland Yard?
00:27:09Quite right, sir.
00:27:11You're Mr. Gordon, I presume.
00:27:12That's right.
00:27:13If I didn't know you'd come about the budget bag,
00:27:15I'd take you from one of the vice squad.
00:27:17Well, I hope it isn't familiarity that caused you to make that error.
00:27:20But how did you know I came about the budget bag?
00:27:21Mr. Dench has told me in accents of statesman-like gloom,
00:27:25my sister in tremulous tones,
00:27:27and Mr. Whitten's been flapping about like an old hen.
00:27:30And in fact, you're the only one that doesn't care.
00:27:32Exactly, Inspector.
00:27:33I've made so little money in the past year,
00:27:35the budget doesn't mean a thing to me.
00:27:36I congratulate you.
00:27:38Now, sir, if you could spare a minute from this game of chance.
00:27:41Skill, Inspector.
00:27:43Look, I'm home.
00:27:44Yeah, but the point is, were you at home all the evening?
00:27:46No, Inspector, I wasn't.
00:27:49I took my sister up to town.
00:27:51She went to see some friends, and what do you think I did?
00:27:54I wouldn't like to say.
00:27:55I went to a show.
00:27:56A variety show.
00:27:59There's the counterpart of my ticket.
00:28:01That's the perfect alibi, isn't it?
00:28:03Yeah, it would be if this ticket came out of a time clock,
00:28:05which it doesn't.
00:28:06Have you asked our very efficient manager, Mr. Whitten,
00:28:10how he spent this evening?
00:28:11All in good time.
00:28:13As when you do,
00:28:15ask him who he took up to London with him.
00:28:16Right.
00:28:17We'll go and ask him.
00:28:19Nothing will give me greater pleasure.
00:28:22Excuse me, Inspector, but it's getting very late.
00:28:24Can you tell us how long this investigation is likely to last?
00:28:27Well, the Chancellor's speech is the day after tomorrow.
00:28:29But if you'll answer me one question, we'll call it a day.
00:28:31Go on.
00:28:33Did you drive someone to town tonight?
00:28:36As a matter of fact, I did.
00:28:37Who?
00:28:38Henry.
00:28:39I picked him up outside the hotel and gave him a lift.
00:28:41I dropped him in Oxford Circus and that's all.
00:28:44Well, I suppose you've got half a dozen witnesses
00:28:46who saw him get out and walk away.
00:28:47At least 50 people must have seen him.
00:28:50But they don't know it and I don't know them.
00:28:52Was he carrying a suitcase?
00:28:54Yes, an old brown one.
00:28:56That seems to settle it.
00:28:57Well, now, I kept you all up pretty late
00:28:59and it's only fair to tell you why.
00:29:01Sergeant Bingham, I want you to help me to demonstrate.
00:29:04Right, sir.
00:29:04Nothing like a good reconstruction.
00:29:08Now, get over there, will I?
00:29:10Now, you can be the Chancellor of the Exchequer.
00:29:13Now, according to Mr. Dench,
00:29:15the Chancellor came into the hotel this afternoon
00:29:17with the budget bag in his left hand.
00:29:19No, no, no, left.
00:29:21He handed the bag to the porter.
00:29:22And as he turned to take off his coat,
00:29:26the porter placed the bag down here
00:29:29behind this umbrella stand.
00:29:31After taking the coat,
00:29:33the porter produced a duplicate bag from here,
00:29:35which he had already planted
00:29:36and handed it to the Chancellor
00:29:37who went into the dining room.
00:29:40Go on, go on, go on.
00:29:40Henry then slipped into the cupboard with the real bag
00:29:45where he made notes on the budget.
00:29:47And when the Chancellor returned from the dining room,
00:29:49he gave him back the real bag
00:29:51having reversed the whole process.
00:29:53Faith, and it's like one of their mediums
00:29:54at a sciencey to see you do it.
00:29:56Keep quiet, Alfred.
00:29:57You know, Mr. Wittance,
00:29:58if you had the X-ray eyes instead of ordinary ones,
00:30:01you'd have seen the duplicate bag
00:30:02inside that old suitcase of Henry's
00:30:03when you drove him to town.
00:30:04Congratulations, Inspector.
00:30:06So the mystery is unraveled.
00:30:08I'm sorry to say it isn't, sir.
00:30:10You see, Henry wasn't the type of man
00:30:11who could plan a crime like this.
00:30:13He must have been acting for someone else.
00:30:15Someone who needed money pretty badly.
00:30:18Or someone who saw an opportunity
00:30:19of making big money.
00:30:21Or again, someone who needed money
00:30:23to get on in the world.
00:30:24But whoever he was,
00:30:25he was a man of education
00:30:26who could organize and plan every detail.
00:30:30I don't want to teach you your job, Inspector.
00:30:32Oh, I'm always ready to learn.
00:30:33It seems to me you should find Henry
00:30:35and get the truth from him.
00:30:37I'm afraid that's impossible.
00:30:38Why?
00:30:39Because Henry was murdered.
00:30:41Had a few minutes after eight o'clock this evening.
00:30:44Now, this isn't what you might call a pleasant sight.
00:30:46But it's the knife that killed Henry.
00:30:49Has anyone ever seen it?
00:30:51Or one like it before?
00:30:53No?
00:30:54Oh, well, I didn't expect any other answer.
00:30:57Mr. Dench,
00:30:58would you mind driving me back
00:30:59by the Chancellor's house?
00:31:02Certainly.
00:31:03Sergeant?
00:31:04Get back to the yard in the car.
00:31:05Put this in the bag
00:31:06and hand the whole lot over to fingerprints.
00:31:08Right, sir.
00:31:08And look sharp about it.
00:31:09Yes, sir.
00:31:09Tell him I want to report
00:31:09first thing in the morning.
00:31:10Yes, sir.
00:31:12Good night, Mr. Gordon.
00:31:13Good night, all.
00:31:15I expect we shall meet again very soon.
00:31:17Good night.
00:31:19It's a funny thing.
00:31:20The first time I'm giving a car to myself
00:31:22and it breaks down.
00:31:23Well, I can't think what's wrong with it.
00:31:24There'd be any petrol.
00:31:26Well, I filled up before we left the yard.
00:31:27Never mind.
00:31:28Look and see.
00:31:29I know I took on 10 gallons.
00:31:32Blimey, it's empty.
00:31:33It's what?
00:31:33Sergeant, listen, this is a miracle.
00:31:35I could swear I...
00:31:36Oh, wrap up.
00:31:37So I fit the taxi, Sergeant?
00:31:38No, no.
00:31:40They might not allow it in my expense sheet.
00:31:42Now, I'll walk to a bus.
00:31:43Well, what about this here statue?
00:31:44Going to take it with you?
00:31:45What?
00:31:46Me like that thing all over London?
00:31:47What do you think I am?
00:31:48Mind you information?
00:31:49Well, I come with you, Sergeant.
00:31:50What for?
00:31:50Well, it's this alley.
00:31:52It's a bit...
00:31:53It's a bit morbid.
00:31:55What's the matter?
00:31:56Afraid of being left alone?
00:31:58Not me.
00:31:58It's you, I'm digging up.
00:31:59All by yourself.
00:32:00Is that there a bag?
00:32:04Here, listen.
00:32:04Many as a winter's night
00:32:06I've tramped along the moors of Bonnie, Scotland.
00:32:09It's not likely I'd be frightened
00:32:10in a dirty London side street.
00:32:13You stay here to get that statue
00:32:14till I send you some petrol.
00:32:15Yes, Sergeant.
00:32:20Oi!
00:32:34I'll be right back.
00:33:04¡Gracias!
00:33:34¡Gracias!
00:34:04¡Gracias!
00:34:34¡Gracias!
00:34:36¡Gracias!
00:34:58¡Now, what's the little guy?
00:35:01Fine time for you to arrive.
00:35:04¿Qué es todo lo que pasa?
00:35:06No me preocupes.
00:35:08Oh, entiendo.
00:35:10¿Quieres un botón?
00:35:11No te preocupes.
00:35:14¿Vale lo que ha hecho?
00:35:16Lo que ha hecho.
00:35:16Lo que ha hecho en la clave.
00:35:18Oh, es una clave, ¿no?
00:35:20¿Quién eres, Charlie Chan?
00:35:23Soy Sergeant Bingham de la CID.
00:35:26Un intento ha sido hecho en mi vida,
00:35:27y, como siempre, el hombre en uniforme
00:35:29se vuelve muy tarde.
00:35:31¿Qué es eso?
00:35:32Well, you'll hear more about this
00:35:35in the morning.
00:35:38And so will I.
00:36:00Go on.
00:36:02Say it.
00:36:04Say what you're thinking.
00:36:06There aren't any words for it.
00:36:08Not in any language.
00:36:10I'm very sorry, Inspector.
00:36:12You pestiferous, elongated,
00:36:14flat-footed, bald-headed bunch of haggis.
00:36:17Why don't you stay on your own,
00:36:18nativity, tossing the sparring
00:36:19and whacking your tom-toms
00:36:20instead of unloading yourself
00:36:21on the long-suffering English.
00:36:23Bite that off at the root
00:36:24and you couldn't hurt me more.
00:36:25No, thanks.
00:36:25I'm a vegetarian.
00:36:27Well, what happened?
00:36:28Well, I was,
00:36:29I was wandering down the alley
00:36:31as blithe as a wee lark
00:36:32and all of a sudden
00:36:33it seemed that Ben Nevis
00:36:35up and hit me.
00:36:36Then all I remember is
00:36:37three ladies in white
00:36:39singing an old lang syne.
00:36:41Any idea who attacked you?
00:36:42No.
00:36:43But I've got a fine clue.
00:36:45What?
00:36:45Fingerprints under that awning?
00:36:46No.
00:36:47A button.
00:36:49I found you beside me
00:36:49when I woke up.
00:36:50Now all I've got to do
00:36:51is to find the owner.
00:36:51And you can sew it back
00:36:52on his coat, I know.
00:36:54But what were you doing
00:36:55in that alley?
00:36:56Well, it's a long story.
00:36:58But if you're only a bit patient
00:36:58I can reconstruct
00:36:59a whole occurrence.
00:37:00Oh, rapper.
00:37:01But how was I to know
00:37:01they'd follow me?
00:37:03How?
00:37:03Now listen.
00:37:04When I was a sergeant,
00:37:06Sir George Selwyn,
00:37:06who was then chief commissioner,
00:37:07said to me,
00:37:08my boy,
00:37:09you're going to go far.
00:37:11Now why do you think
00:37:11he said that?
00:37:13I don't know.
00:37:14He's one of the lunacy
00:37:15commissioners now,
00:37:16isn't he?
00:37:17What do you mean?
00:37:18Nothing.
00:37:19I was only thinking aloud.
00:37:21You think?
00:37:22Don't make me laugh.
00:37:23If you were a stamp,
00:37:24you'd be a perforated forgery
00:37:25with a fake postmark
00:37:26and no gum.
00:37:27I'd swap you
00:37:27for a cigarette card.
00:37:28Well, I never thought
00:37:29you'd be so hard.
00:37:30Me hard?
00:37:31You wait
00:37:32and you hear from upstairs.
00:37:34Is the chief superintendent
00:37:35likely to be very angry?
00:37:36No, no, no.
00:37:37You'd just give me
00:37:37a great big hug
00:37:38and a kiss.
00:37:39Bless my soul.
00:37:40You throw away
00:37:41the duplicate bag,
00:37:42our one and only
00:37:42piece of evidence.
00:37:43I've still got the statue.
00:37:45Surely they must have
00:37:45found some fingerprints
00:37:46on it.
00:37:46Yes, a complete selection
00:37:47of yours
00:37:48on the merry thought.
00:37:50Well, what's the use
00:37:51of fighting against fate?
00:37:53Here am I,
00:37:53trying to do my duty.
00:37:54And all I get
00:37:55is my head cracked
00:37:56and my good name
00:37:56snatched.
00:37:57Well, the chief
00:37:58can't hurt me more.
00:38:00Well, that'll depend
00:38:00on me.
00:38:01You've jeopardized
00:38:02your whole career,
00:38:03my boy.
00:38:04And if the chief superintendent
00:38:05beat out of my hand,
00:38:06what's that about
00:38:09the chief superintendent?
00:38:11With all due deference,
00:38:12sir, I was just describing
00:38:12your method
00:38:13as Sergeant Bingham.
00:38:14Uh-huh.
00:38:14And I was telling you...
00:38:15What's the name of the port?
00:38:16Yes, sir.
00:38:17I'm afraid we've lost
00:38:18that duplicate bag.
00:38:20Your what?
00:38:22Lost it?
00:38:22Yes, sir.
00:38:23Oh, good heavens, man.
00:38:24How, how?
00:38:25Well, sir.
00:38:27In a manner of speaking,
00:38:28it was my fault.
00:38:29Oh, come to the point, man.
00:38:30Was it or was it not your fault?
00:38:31You see, sir,
00:38:32I was too trusting.
00:38:33Well,
00:38:34I allowed Sergeant Bingham
00:38:35to bring up that bag
00:38:36by himself.
00:38:37And he was
00:38:38savagely attacked.
00:38:38You've been long enough
00:38:42in the force,
00:38:43Hornley,
00:38:43to know that if you want
00:38:43a thing done,
00:38:44you must do it yourself.
00:38:45And not leave it
00:38:46to a simple scot.
00:38:48Oh, there it is.
00:38:49Badly hurt, Sergeant?
00:38:50Oh, I can carry on, sir.
00:38:52You and sir,
00:38:53it may have been
00:38:54partly my fault.
00:38:56I wouldn't like you
00:38:57to blame the inspector
00:38:58altogether.
00:38:59Oh, it's very nice
00:38:59of you, Sergeant.
00:39:00Still, I'm afraid
00:39:01I must take the blame.
00:39:02It was my responsibility.
00:39:03Well, no mind
00:39:03whose fault it is.
00:39:04The point is,
00:39:05the Chancellor
00:39:05makes his speech tomorrow.
00:39:07And before he gets
00:39:07up in the house,
00:39:08we've got to find
00:39:09the murderer.
00:39:10Tomorrow?
00:39:11Yes.
00:39:12Can you do it?
00:39:13Well, if I could guarantee
00:39:13that, sir,
00:39:14I'd be Chief Superintendent
00:39:14myself.
00:39:15Still, I can try.
00:39:18Mr. Whitton's
00:39:18to see Inspector Hornley, sir.
00:39:20All right,
00:39:20I'm just going.
00:39:22Bring him in.
00:39:24Don't let Bingham
00:39:25do too much
00:39:26till he's all right
00:39:26in my head.
00:39:27Don't you worry, sir.
00:39:28I'll look after him.
00:39:29Well, you...
00:39:30you certainly
00:39:31did me a good turn there.
00:39:33Esprit de Corpse,
00:39:33my boy.
00:39:34What'd he say?
00:39:35French for the
00:39:36old school tie.
00:39:38Good morning,
00:39:39Inspector.
00:39:39Good morning.
00:39:40What can I do for you?
00:39:42I may be able
00:39:42to be of assistance.
00:39:43Well, I could do
00:39:44with some.
00:39:45Sit down, will you?
00:39:46Thank you.
00:39:48What I'm about to say
00:39:49might give you
00:39:50a wrong impression.
00:39:51Ah, I see.
00:39:53You know something
00:39:53about someone.
00:39:54That's right.
00:39:55But I wouldn't like
00:39:55you to think...
00:39:56I never do.
00:39:57Go on.
00:39:58Well, about three weeks
00:39:59ago, I was asked
00:40:01if I knew the name
00:40:01of any leather worker
00:40:02who was good
00:40:03at his job,
00:40:04but in a small way
00:40:04of business.
00:40:05Who asked you?
00:40:06I hardly like
00:40:07to tell you.
00:40:08I see.
00:40:09If you come
00:40:10all the way
00:40:10from the inn
00:40:11to tell me,
00:40:11you hardly like
00:40:12to tell me.
00:40:12Well, I'm afraid
00:40:13you might think
00:40:14I had a personal
00:40:14bias against this man.
00:40:16Don't worry about that.
00:40:16I won't consider
00:40:17the point.
00:40:18Well,
00:40:20it was Mr. Dench.
00:40:22Was it indeed?
00:40:25Did he give me
00:40:25reason?
00:40:26He said he wanted
00:40:26the budget bag repaired.
00:40:28Where did you send him?
00:40:29A man called Parkinson,
00:40:30104 Shepard's Market.
00:40:32Nothing wrong
00:40:33with your memory,
00:40:33is there?
00:40:34I thought you might
00:40:35be doubtful
00:40:35about my story.
00:40:36So I brought along
00:40:37Alfred.
00:40:37He heard Dench
00:40:38ask me.
00:40:39That's very thoughtful
00:40:39of you.
00:40:40You corroborate
00:40:41this statement.
00:40:42Yes, sir.
00:40:42Mr. Whitten told me
00:40:43I had to come along.
00:40:44I hope I'm not
00:40:44getting Mr. Dench
00:40:45into a hold.
00:40:46No, no, no.
00:40:47Nice gentleman,
00:40:47Mr. Dench, isn't he?
00:40:48Very, sir.
00:40:49Has a certain affection
00:40:50for Miss Anne,
00:40:50I believe.
00:40:51Yes, sir.
00:40:51Well, I can't say
00:40:52I blame him.
00:40:53Well, gentlemen,
00:40:54if you've nothing
00:40:54further to say,
00:40:54I wouldn't detain you
00:40:55any longer.
00:40:56I can tell you
00:40:56where Mr. Dench lives.
00:40:57Don't bother.
00:40:58I already know.
00:40:59Bingham,
00:41:00show these two gentlemen
00:41:00out.
00:41:01I hope I've done
00:41:02the right thing.
00:41:03You've done all
00:41:04I would have expected
00:41:04of you, Mr. Whittens.
00:41:06Good day.
00:41:07Good morning, sir.
00:41:23And what can I do
00:41:24for you?
00:41:28Well, if that's the
00:41:28best act you can put
00:41:29on when somebody
00:41:30comes in,
00:41:30we'll all be booked
00:41:31to appear at the
00:41:31old Bailey.
00:41:32Why did you do it?
00:41:33Why did you have
00:41:33to do that?
00:41:34What are you talking
00:41:35about?
00:41:35Henry.
00:41:36It's in the papers.
00:41:37You don't think I had
00:41:38anything to do with
00:41:38that, do you?
00:41:39It's awful.
00:41:41He's dead.
00:41:41I know.
00:41:43Well, I'm just as
00:41:44upset as you are.
00:41:45After all, he was
00:41:46one of us.
00:41:47That's what frightens me.
00:41:49I suppose the police
00:41:49find out.
00:41:50The police won't
00:41:50find out anything
00:41:51unless you start
00:41:51talking.
00:41:52You swore that
00:41:53nothing could go
00:41:54wrong.
00:41:54Nothing has gone
00:41:55wrong.
00:41:56As far as we are
00:41:57concerned.
00:41:58Yes, but suppose
00:41:59they get on to us.
00:42:00Don't you think we
00:42:00ought to tell the
00:42:01police?
00:42:01What?
00:42:02Tell them our story
00:42:02first before they
00:42:03find out.
00:42:04Now, listen.
00:42:06If you go to the
00:42:06police, you'll only
00:42:07go once.
00:42:09Do you understand?
00:42:11Yes.
00:42:12Good.
00:42:13Well, I mustn't
00:42:14see him hanging
00:42:15around here.
00:42:15If the police come,
00:42:16just behave like a
00:42:17fool who knows
00:42:18nothing.
00:42:19It ought to be
00:42:20easy.
00:42:20Why don't you
00:42:26go away for a
00:42:26holiday?
00:42:28Holiday?
00:42:29Not too good
00:42:29for your health.
00:42:30Whitehall, one, two, one, two.
00:42:41Whitehall, one, two, one, two.
00:42:43Whitehall, one, two, one, two.
00:42:59Come in.
00:43:09Good morning, Mr. Dench.
00:43:11Oh, good morning, Inspector.
00:43:13You're about early.
00:43:14Oh, we don't call this
00:43:15early over the yard, sir.
00:43:16Tell me, is there any news?
00:43:18No, not yet.
00:43:19Well, there are one or two
00:43:19things I'd like to ask you,
00:43:20if you don't mind.
00:43:21Certainly.
00:43:21Won't you sit down?
00:43:22Thank you, sir.
00:43:23I'm sorry to trouble you,
00:43:24but it's rather important
00:43:25to get all the facts.
00:43:26And there's something
00:43:27I want to check up on
00:43:28about this budget bag.
00:43:29Oh, yes?
00:43:30I understand you
00:43:31had it repaired lately.
00:43:33As a matter of fact,
00:43:34I did.
00:43:34Why?
00:43:35Well, you didn't think
00:43:36of mentioning it last night,
00:43:37did you?
00:43:37That was a month ago.
00:43:39Never occurred to me
00:43:40it'd have any connection
00:43:40with last night's affair.
00:43:41That's a clue, Mr. Dench.
00:43:43And clues are what
00:43:44we are looking for.
00:43:45Yes, of course.
00:43:46Tell me, how did you find out?
00:43:47By listening.
00:43:49Some of your friends
00:43:50are so fond of you
00:43:50they can't stop
00:43:51talking about you.
00:43:52Well, they certainly
00:43:53haven't wasted any time
00:43:54about it.
00:43:55Cigarette?
00:43:55No, thank you.
00:43:56You don't mind if I do?
00:43:56By all means.
00:44:00Tom.
00:44:02Nice girl, that, Miss Gordon.
00:44:03Hmm?
00:44:04Oh, yes, very.
00:44:05I understand you
00:44:06and she hope
00:44:07to get married one day.
00:44:08Well, I really don't see
00:44:09what my marriage
00:44:09has to do with the budget.
00:44:10Oh, don't you?
00:44:11The budget's got quite
00:44:12a lot to do with matrimony.
00:44:14For instance,
00:44:14they make an allowance
00:44:15for a wife, don't they?
00:44:16Then there's the, um,
00:44:18the little ones.
00:44:20Well, that's very kind of you
00:44:21to take so much interest
00:44:22in my future.
00:44:23Oh, under my somewhat
00:44:24rugged exterior,
00:44:25there's...
00:44:26There's quite a lot
00:44:31of romance.
00:44:34Getting married soon?
00:44:35When I'm in a position to?
00:44:37And a very sensible tour,
00:44:38if I may say so.
00:44:39Gives you a motive
00:44:40to get on, doesn't it?
00:44:41I suppose you know
00:44:43quite a lot of people
00:44:43who are well up
00:44:44in the financial world.
00:44:45Yes, of course.
00:44:47Now, listen, Inspector.
00:44:48It must be obvious
00:44:49to a man of your intelligence
00:44:51that I wouldn't go
00:44:51to the inn
00:44:52to steal the budget secrets.
00:44:53Why, they're at my
00:44:54over every day
00:44:55in the Chancellor's house.
00:44:56You know,
00:44:56it's a funny thing,
00:44:57but whenever I arrest
00:44:58a man for a crime,
00:44:59he always starts
00:45:00by telling me
00:45:01of a dozen ways
00:45:01he could have done it
00:45:02and never by any chance
00:45:03of the way it was done.
00:45:04Are you going to arrest me?
00:45:06Silly.
00:45:06Of course not.
00:45:07I wouldn't dream
00:45:08of such a thing.
00:45:09All the same,
00:45:09I'd like you to come
00:45:10along with me.
00:45:11Where to?
00:45:12To this Mr. Parkinson.
00:45:14He'll be glad
00:45:14to see an old customer.
00:45:16Oh, very well.
00:45:25Shop!
00:45:28Customers?
00:45:29Seems to be a strike
00:45:34in the leather business.
00:45:35All a lockout.
00:45:36Maybe he's not in.
00:45:39Oi!
00:45:40Anyone at home?
00:45:42Nobody here?
00:45:48Funny smell.
00:45:50I wonder what it is.
00:45:51Cheese.
00:45:52Oh, no, it's not.
00:45:53I know.
00:45:54It's leather.
00:45:55Go on.
00:45:56Well, did he find anything?
00:45:58Only that Mr. Parkinson
00:45:59isn't in his bar.
00:46:01Is that the bathroom?
00:46:02Yeah, it's an amount of speaking.
00:46:04Yeah, you better go and...
00:46:05Hello?
00:46:06That's funny.
00:46:07What?
00:46:08Look at that.
00:46:09Well, what about it?
00:46:11Well, at least we know
00:46:11that he left suddenly.
00:46:12That's what I was thinking.
00:46:14How do you know?
00:46:15Well, he left this off the hook.
00:46:17Hello.
00:46:18Hello.
00:46:20Go away.
00:46:22Hello, is it changed?
00:46:23Yes, I know.
00:46:26How long has the receiver been off?
00:46:28Inspector, wait.
00:46:34Good lover, Raza.
00:46:35What have you done now?
00:46:36I opened this door
00:46:37and he fell into the room.
00:46:39God.
00:46:39Why did you come in here?
00:46:54I was looking for Parkinson.
00:46:56You found him, all right.
00:46:58You don't suppose I'd be mad enough
00:46:59to kill a man with a couple of detectives
00:47:01at my elbow, do you?
00:47:02Don't ask me.
00:47:02I'm only a policeman.
00:47:03That's right.
00:47:06Ever seen anything like this before?
00:47:07The other man was killed
00:47:08with a knife like that.
00:47:09How do you know
00:47:10it isn't the very same knife
00:47:10that killed Henry?
00:47:11Well, I hardly think the inspector
00:47:13would have given it back
00:47:13to the murderer.
00:47:14Besides, every knife on that bench
00:47:16is exactly the same.
00:47:17You seem to know all the answers.
00:47:19Ever been in here before?
00:47:21No, only in the shop.
00:47:23Take that, will you?
00:47:23Yeah.
00:47:24Gosh, what a way to treat money.
00:47:41Well, I've heard what chap's income
00:47:42being cut, but never quite like this.
00:47:44Anyway, they're tenors,
00:47:45so they should be easily traced.
00:47:46Bring them.
00:47:47Find out where they came from.
00:47:48Later.
00:47:49I've traced the notes, Inspector.
00:47:51They were issued to Michael Kavanaghs.
00:47:53200, Portland, please.
00:47:54You're coming on, my boy.
00:47:55We'll make a cop over here yet.
00:47:57Thank you very much.
00:47:58Very nice of you to say so.
00:48:00It'll be interesting
00:48:00to make the acquaintance
00:48:01of this, Mr. Michael Kavanaghs.
00:48:03I'd like to know
00:48:03why his hobby
00:48:04is carving up banknotes.
00:48:07You have quite a lot of money
00:48:08from me already, you know.
00:48:10Well, I'm not asking
00:48:10for a lot more.
00:48:11No?
00:48:12I don't want enough
00:48:12to clear out
00:48:13of this confounded country.
00:48:14Oh, look here, Gordon.
00:48:15I'm a financier,
00:48:16a speculator, if you like,
00:48:18but not an exporter,
00:48:19particularly of unwanted goods.
00:48:22This is as much
00:48:22in your interest as mine.
00:48:24How can that be?
00:48:25Well, if I get into a jam,
00:48:26you'll be right alongside me.
00:48:27Cooking.
00:48:29I was wondering
00:48:30when you would say that.
00:48:32No, I'm not threatening you.
00:48:33You are not
00:48:34because I hold all the cards.
00:48:36Yes, you forget one thing.
00:48:37We're in this deal together.
00:48:38You are wrong.
00:48:39You had an idea,
00:48:40you brought it to me.
00:48:41It was a foolish idea
00:48:42that did not work.
00:48:44But it was your idea,
00:48:45Mr. Gordon, not mine.
00:48:46You'll have quite a time
00:48:47making the police believe that.
00:48:49The police?
00:48:50I'm not afraid
00:48:51of your English police.
00:48:52I like them too much.
00:48:56Coming.
00:48:58Inspector Hornley
00:48:59of Scotland Yard
00:49:00to see you, sir.
00:49:02What is this?
00:49:03What are you telling?
00:49:04I never even mentioned your name.
00:49:05You must be here
00:49:06for something else.
00:49:08Let him come in.
00:49:09Yes, sir.
00:49:12Get in that room.
00:49:13Click.
00:49:13Click.
00:49:14Inspector Hornley
00:49:20and Sergeant Bingham, sir.
00:49:22Good afternoon, Mr. Kavanagh.
00:49:23Good afternoon, Inspector.
00:49:24This is an unexpected pleasure.
00:49:26I have never met anyone
00:49:27from Scotland Yard yet.
00:49:29Well, if I had known there,
00:49:30I'd have brought along
00:49:30the Chief Commissioner.
00:49:31As it is, I'm afraid
00:49:32you'll have to put up
00:49:33with Sergeant Bingham.
00:49:34How do you do, Sergeant?
00:49:35I often see how much
00:49:36I like the English police.
00:49:38British.
00:49:38He's a foreigner, sir,
00:49:39like you.
00:49:40Well, now,
00:49:41after all these little pleasantries,
00:49:43what about getting down to business?
00:49:44Oh, well, gentlemen,
00:49:45would you like to have a drink?
00:49:47Indubitably.
00:49:47Just a week, sir.
00:49:48But not just now.
00:49:49Oh, well, won't you sit down?
00:49:51No, thank you, sir.
00:49:51I will give you a minute.
00:49:53Now, sir,
00:49:54you're a financier, I believe.
00:49:56Well, in my own small way, yes.
00:49:58You invest money
00:49:59in all sorts of stocks
00:50:00and shares, don't you?
00:50:01Yes, all sorts of stocks
00:50:02and shares.
00:50:03And commodities?
00:50:04Wheat,
00:50:05oil,
00:50:06rubber,
00:50:06copper?
00:50:07Yes, yes.
00:50:08And leather?
00:50:11I beg your pardon?
00:50:12I don't quite understand.
00:50:13Well, it's quite a simple question,
00:50:14isn't it?
00:50:16Have you had any dealings
00:50:17with a Mr. Alexander Parkinson
00:50:18of 104 Shepherds Market?
00:50:21Alexander Parkinson?
00:50:23I don't think so.
00:50:26Why?
00:50:27Because he was murdered
00:50:28a couple of hours ago.
00:50:32I fail to see
00:50:33how that can concern me.
00:50:35And I take it
00:50:35you didn't know him?
00:50:36I never heard of him
00:50:37in my life.
00:50:39But it may surprise you
00:50:40to know
00:50:40that 200 pounds
00:50:42in bank notes
00:50:42was found on him.
00:50:44Why should it surprise me?
00:50:46Because those notes
00:50:47were issued to you
00:50:48a month ago
00:50:48by the Southern County Bank.
00:50:50Oh, that might well be.
00:50:51I have many dealings,
00:50:53you know.
00:50:53In the course of a month,
00:50:54I could have paid them
00:50:55to one of 20 people.
00:50:57Well, don't you keep
00:50:57a record of the numbers?
00:50:58Never.
00:50:59I am perhaps
00:51:00what you call
00:51:00a bit careless
00:51:01about money.
00:51:03Prodigal, I call it.
00:51:04However,
00:51:05here are the notes.
00:51:06Perhaps you'll observe
00:51:07that they've been
00:51:07torn in half.
00:51:09How odd.
00:51:10I cannot think
00:51:11of a reason
00:51:12for doing such
00:51:13a stupid thing.
00:51:14Can't you?
00:51:15I can.
00:51:16It would interest me
00:51:16to know.
00:51:17I prefer to tell
00:51:18my bedtime stories
00:51:19to a judge and jury.
00:51:21I'm afraid
00:51:22I won't be there
00:51:22to hear you.
00:51:24That's a pity.
00:51:25Still, if you change
00:51:25your mind,
00:51:26I'll be happy
00:51:26to reserve you a seat.
00:51:27That's very kind
00:51:28of you, Inspector.
00:51:29I'm sorry
00:51:30I could not give
00:51:30you more information.
00:51:32Don't you worry,
00:51:32Mr. Kavanaghs.
00:51:33You've given me
00:51:34quite a lot,
00:51:34thank you very much.
00:51:35Good day.
00:51:36Good day, Inspector.
00:51:46You've heard
00:51:47what he said?
00:51:47Yes, every word.
00:51:49How you find out
00:51:49all that in the time
00:51:50defeats me?
00:51:51Did you know
00:51:52that Parkinson
00:51:52has been murdered?
00:51:53No more than you.
00:51:54What do you mean?
00:51:56Just this.
00:51:57That if I'm innocent
00:51:58then so are you.
00:52:00But if they pin it on me
00:52:01there'll be two of us
00:52:01in the dock.
00:52:02It's just possible
00:52:05that for once
00:52:06you are right.
00:52:07What do you want?
00:52:08What I asked for before.
00:52:09Give me some money
00:52:10and I'll clear out.
00:52:17You don't expect me
00:52:18to get very far,
00:52:18do you?
00:52:19I have no more
00:52:20treasure, you know,
00:52:20and I shall not
00:52:21give you banknotes
00:52:22that Inspector
00:52:23only can trace.
00:52:24When do you start?
00:52:25Tomorrow morning.
00:52:26I've got to settle
00:52:26things up with Anne.
00:52:27Gordon,
00:52:28does she know
00:52:29anything?
00:52:30No,
00:52:30and she's not
00:52:31going to either.
00:52:31All right.
00:53:01and she's not
00:53:02going to be
00:53:03safe.
00:53:25Any luck, Inspector?
00:53:27Do I look
00:53:27as if I've been lucky?
00:53:29Blind old Riley.
00:53:30What a day.
00:53:30¿Alguien tiene algo en el intercambio?
00:53:32Hay muchas historias que no puedo repetir.
00:53:34Pero he encontrado una cosa.
00:53:36¿Qué es eso?
00:53:37No hay especulación.
00:53:39Eso significa que el tío está preocupado de usar su conocimiento.
00:53:41Bueno, esa es una cosa en la cabeza.
00:53:43Bueno, lo que quiero es el matrimonio.
00:53:50¿Hola?
00:53:52Sí, el inspector Only is aquí.

00:54:18Así que...

00:54:23¡Vamos!
00:54:31Hola.
00:54:37¿Puedo pedirme un saludo?

00:54:42Es un esperto decisión, ¿no?
00:54:44No, no estoy pensando en este tiempo.
00:54:46Estar frío si está en otro lugar.
00:54:48Me 와 un saludo.
00:54:50No, no, ya sé.
00:54:51¿La está?
00:54:52¿Para?
00:54:53No, no.
00:54:54Eso no es lo que está.
00:54:55Sí, tiene que ver el saludo.
00:54:59¡Ah, lo que ha!
00:55:00發alecemente pensaba que no es lo que estaba.
00:55:03¿Para que te encontré?

00:56:55¿O es?

00:57:16¿Cómo está usted?
00:57:17¿He está en el cuarto?
00:57:18¿Te dijiste que isa usted?
00:57:19No, voy a ir a la vez.
00:57:21Muy bien, señor.
00:57:23No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
00:57:53And I suppose your friend thinks that too.
00:57:56What he thinks is nothing, it is what I say.
00:57:59Well, for the present, I stay right where I am.
00:58:04Gordon, I'm thinking for your good.
00:58:06It is better that you go.
00:58:08Whenever you start thinking of anybody but yourself, I begin to wonder why.
00:58:11The reason is very simple.
00:58:13The police will come again, and...
00:58:15I do not like Inspector Hornley.
00:58:18That's funny.
00:58:19I've taken quite a fancy to him.
00:58:21In fact, I'm thinking of having a little chat with him.
00:58:23¿Qué es eso?
00:58:25No sé si ustedes son seriosos, jodidos o maravillosos.
00:58:30Estoy seriosos esta vez.
00:58:32Me ha dado ayer, me ha parecido muy fácil.
00:58:35Hoy me ha dado.
00:58:36¿Crees que será fácil si le decís la policía?
00:58:38No, no es fácil, pero es el mejor camino.
00:58:41He estado pensando todo.
00:58:44Muy bien.
00:58:45Pero no te preocupes.
00:58:47Me ha dado cuenta también.
00:58:49No, no, no, no.
00:58:50Me parece mucho mejor si tengo una mano en mi mano.
00:58:54Hay una mano ahí, si quieres.
00:58:55Gracias.
00:59:02¿Qué ha estado pensando?
00:59:05Estoy haciendo algunas cosas en mi cabeza.
00:59:07Subtractión y añadir.
00:59:09No entiendo.
00:59:11Bueno, cuatro de nosotros en este acuerdo.
00:59:14Henry y Parkinson, y yo y yo.
00:59:16No me ha dado cuenta como uno.
00:59:18Bueno, y Parkinson es dead y Henry es dead.
00:59:20Y eso es solo dos de nosotros.
00:59:22Bueno, yo diré que es el último.
00:59:25¿Estás diciendo que tengo algo que ver con esto?
00:59:30Solo diré que alguien está jugando un juego.
00:59:33¿Te recuerdas esto?
00:59:35Claro que sí.
00:59:37Lo he dado.
00:59:38Lo he dado.
00:59:39¿Y después de esa share deal?
00:59:40Bueno, como es que es tan malo,
00:59:42Dench se encontró y me regresó este día.
00:59:44¿Por qué no?
00:59:45D Sum.
00:59:46No.
00:59:47No, no, no, no, no, no.
01:00:17No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
01:00:48He'll be glad to know I can put him on to the man that murdered Parkinson.
01:00:50Who cares about Parkinson? I'm tired of his name.
01:00:54I say you better let the police do their own dirty work.
01:00:57And I tell you I'm going to see Hornley as soon as I can.
01:01:01Excuse me, Mr. Witness, sir, but there's a brandy and ginger and a white lady to go up to Mr. Gordon's room.
01:01:05Has Mr. Gordon a visitor?
01:01:07Yes, sir, a gentleman I never saw before is up in his room.
01:01:09Excuse me, have you locked up the petrol pumps?
01:01:12Wasn't it on the tip of his tongue to say I hadn't?
01:01:14Well, go and do it at once.
01:01:16I will, sir.
01:01:25I'll have one while you're at it.
01:01:26It's against the law to serve you at the bar, but I'll send one to your room.
01:01:30Okay, I'll have a bitter.
01:01:32Very good, Mr. Holt.
01:01:33In a mug.
01:01:33The law doesn't say we can't talk in here, does it?
01:01:43No.
01:01:45Anything wrong?
01:01:46Plenty.
01:01:47A budget bag, for instance.
01:01:49That'd be a sport.
01:01:50Who are the coppers after?
01:01:51I'm not in that confidence, Mr. Holt.
01:01:53Well, my money's on Dench.
01:01:55He's the only one that knew his nibs was coming here to tea.
01:01:58And what with that young madam making eyes at him?
01:02:00He'd tell was his to do as he liked him.
01:02:01You've no right to talk like that about Miss Gordon.
01:02:03Oh, sir, that's the idea.
01:02:05You're running in the same race, are you?
01:02:07If you can't keep a decent tongue in your head, you'd better find another hotel.
01:02:10No offence, Matt, Mr. Whittance.
01:02:12No offence.
01:02:16Nothing you can say will make me change my mind.
01:02:19Is it your final word?
01:02:20Absolutely.
01:02:21I'm even prepared to go to jail for a couple of years.
01:02:23But I am not.
01:02:26The drinks, Mr. Gordon.
01:02:27Oh, thanks.
01:02:28Put it on there, will you?
01:02:31No, my friend.
01:02:38I don't want to go to jail.
01:02:41And I will do a great deal to keep out.
01:02:44As far as I'm concerned, you can do what you like.
01:02:46Oh, Mr. Whittance, has my brother come down yet?
01:02:49He's still in his room, Miss Gordon.
01:02:50Thank you.
01:03:01Bill, what's the matter?
01:03:16I don't know.
01:03:42No, no, no.
01:04:12You want in the hurry, Mr. Kavanagh?
01:04:16Yes, I heard a scream downstairs.
01:04:17Well, I heard one upstairs.
01:04:19Hold him.
01:04:19I don't let anybody up or down these stairs.
01:04:23What's happened?
01:04:23I don't know.
01:04:24I heard a scream and by the time I got here, she'd apparently fainted and he was like that.
01:04:27Get her out of here quick.
01:04:28Pause your covers.
01:04:32Is he dead?
01:04:34I'm afraid so.
01:04:42Prussic acid.
01:04:47Gosh, who do you think dead it?
01:04:48Cavernous?
01:04:49Well, I wouldn't put it past him.
01:04:50But why would anyone want to put prussic acid in his drink?
01:04:52Well, to save his own skin, I suppose.
01:04:54Here, look after this.
01:04:55Then ring up the local station.
01:04:56Tell him to send the doctor along quick.
01:04:58Right.
01:04:58Inspector, Miss Gordon just told me a man came into this room after she found Bill.
01:05:12What's that?
01:05:12She noticed a scarf lying on the table.
01:05:14Just as she picked it up, this man came in and snatched it out of her hand.
01:05:16That's all she remembers.
01:05:17Is that so?
01:05:18Here, you better come downstairs with me.
01:05:20Dear sergeant, you can treat these people as you like, but I am a man of influence.
01:05:26I am well known.
01:05:27Not as well known as you will be, Mr. Cavernous.
01:05:30You'll be on every front page unless you do a bit of explaining.
01:05:33I know nothing.
01:05:34I came here tonight to talk with Gordon.
01:05:37I left him, I came downstairs.
01:05:39Of course you heard screams all over the house.
01:05:40No, I realized I have forgotten my scarf.
01:05:43So I went back and I found Gordon in the chair.
01:05:45His sister by him.
01:05:47She screamed.
01:05:48I was frightened.
01:05:49And then ran away.
01:05:51But that doesn't explain why you came here tonight.
01:05:53To have a friendly chat with Gordon.
01:05:55I happen to know that's not true.
01:05:57How do you know?
01:05:58Alfred told me he heard them quarreling.
01:06:00What about?
01:06:02Just when I went in with the drinks, they were disputing about a deal, they called it.
01:06:05He doesn't know what he's talking about.
01:06:07Yeah, but I do.
01:06:08There were four of you in that deal.
01:06:10Henry, Parkinson, Gordon and yourself.
01:06:12And three of them have been murdered.
01:06:13Only you remain.
01:06:17I didn't do it.
01:06:19I will tell you the truth.
01:06:21The whole truth.
01:06:22It'll be very unpleasant for you if you don't.
01:06:24Gordon owed me money.
01:06:26He couldn't pay.
01:06:27He promised to get me some advance information concerning the budget in exchange for his death.
01:06:32He planned it all.
01:06:34But you gave him 200 pounds to have the duplicate bag made, didn't you?
01:06:37But I had no idea what the money was for.
01:06:39I couldn't trust him, so I tore the banknotes in half.
01:06:42He was to have my half when he gave me the information.
01:06:45You're wasting your time, Inspector.
01:06:46Just a minute, Mr. Dench.
01:06:47Dench!
01:06:48So you are the man who was Gordon's enemy.
01:06:51What are you talking about?
01:06:52Inspector, there is the murderer.
01:06:55Only tonight Gordon told me you tried to frighten him by saying that you found his lighter at Parkinson's shop.
01:07:00What's that?
01:07:01It's a lie.
01:07:01When I brought his lighter here, I was trying to keep him out of the mess you made for him.
01:07:04But if you found the lighter in the shop, why did you hide it from me?
01:07:06Because I thought Bill had been up to something, but I knew he wasn't a murderer, and I wanted to protect Miss Gordon.
01:07:10You know, you're a public menace, Mr. Dench.
01:07:12You seem determined to defend one woman until every man in the case is killed.
01:07:15Well, I've nothing to fear.
01:07:16Well, all I can say is you've got more courage than sense.
01:07:18Is that the lighter?
01:07:20Yes.
01:07:21And Gordon said something very curious about it.
01:07:23What was that?
01:07:25He looked at it closely, and then he told me that when Dench gave it to him, he told it was not his.
01:07:31Did he say why?
01:07:32No.
01:07:33But he said that now he could trace the man who left it at the leather shop.
01:07:37Did he indeed?
01:07:41Did he say anything else about Mr. Dench?
01:07:43Yes.
01:07:44That he had a quarrel.
01:07:45But he could not see anymore because at that moment the porter brought us our drinks.
01:07:50You were in Mr. Gordon's room twice, weren't you, while Mr. Cavanagh was there?
01:07:53Yes, sir.
01:07:54I took the gentleman's order.
01:07:55Mr. Witness mixed the drinks, and he gave them to me to take up after I'd locked up outside.
01:07:59Do you agree with that?
01:08:00Alfred's account is correct, Inspector.
01:08:02That's the way to give evidence.
01:08:04Now, I have one other question to ask Mr. Wittens.
01:08:06What did you do when you left my office this morning?
01:08:09I came back here.
01:08:10Can you verify that?
01:08:11Yes, sir.
01:08:12He was on his way when I went to catch me boss.
01:08:13Oh, then you didn't come back together.
01:08:15No.
01:08:16I had some business to do.
01:08:17I'd forgotten that.
01:08:19I don't know what your business was, but when you were doing it, Parkinson was murdered.
01:08:23I imagine that at least two million other men were going about their business in London at the same time.
01:08:27That's true.
01:08:28But they didn't know Parkinson, and I believe you did.
01:08:30I knew him well.
01:08:31I sent Mr. Dench to him.
01:08:33Have you been in Gordon's room tonight?
01:08:35No.
01:08:36Then I take it that nobody but Mr. Cavanaghs and Mr. Dench have been there since Gordon was killed.
01:08:42Mr. Wittens, you were here when Henry changed the budget bags and could have seen the switch.
01:08:46You afterwards drove him to town.
01:08:49But with only your word for it that you dropped him at Oxford-Serk and didn't follow him and kill him.
01:08:53So that's what you think.
01:08:54Also, when I was here last night, you heard me say that I'd found the bag in the Woolsh Harp, didn't you?
01:08:58I did.
01:08:59Now, you could have drained the petrol from the car and attacked Sergeant Bingham in order to get the knife,
01:09:03which, being of a very unusual pattern, could be easily traced to Parkinson's.
01:09:06So far, I follow you, Inspector.
01:09:08The next thing was to be sure of silencing Parkinson's.
01:09:11And you were on your own in London when he was killed.
01:09:13This is all very interesting.
01:09:15Tonight, hearing Gordon say that he could trace the man who tried to frame him with this,
01:09:19you could have killed him as the other men had been killed.
01:09:22Very clever deduction, Inspector.
01:09:24But all you've said could equally apply to Mr. Dench or Alfred or even Mr. Holt.
01:09:32See, my name's been brought into this, Inspector. I'd better tell you who I am.
01:09:35You don't need to.
01:09:36You're a private detective from the Circle Agency.
01:09:39Your usual line is divorce.
01:09:41And you're known as Keyhole Charlie or the Correspondent's Curse.
01:09:43Yes. And what's more, you're the fifth man in Mr. Cavanaugh's syndicate.
01:09:47Oh, no.
01:09:48I was sent here by Mr. Cavanaugh's to keep an eye on Gordon to see he didn't do a bit of double-crossing.
01:09:52And if you want a tip from a fellow detective only, Dench is your man.
01:09:56He talks a lot about protecting his young lady.
01:10:00But I'll bet he was trying to protect himself.
01:10:02I wouldn't bet on that.
01:10:04If Mr. Dench was protecting himself, he wouldn't have brought the lighter back to Gordon.
01:10:07He'd have turned it over to me.
01:10:09I tell you, Inspector, it must have been this man.
01:10:11He was in the room when Bill Gordon died.
01:10:13But I didn't kill him.
01:10:14I believe almost anything of Mr. Cavanaugh's.
01:10:16But I can't believe he attacked Bingham when he couldn't have known we had the knife.
01:10:21As to Mr. Holt, he didn't know I was going to Parkinson.
01:10:24But you did.
01:10:26Have you anything else to say?
01:10:28If I'd been going to kill Parkinson, would I have gone to the yard and told you about him?
01:10:32And if I'd been going to kill Gordon, would I have telephoned you to come down here?
01:10:36Why did you telephone?
01:10:37Because I knew Bill Gordon meant to run away.
01:10:39I thought it was you who phoned.
01:10:41I've been waiting for you to say so.
01:10:42I'm sorry to have had to use you to prove that only one man could have committed all three murders.
01:10:47And that man is you.
01:10:48What's that?
01:10:49Every word that I've said to Wittons applies to you.
01:10:52You weren't in the original syndicate, but you saw Henry change the bags, thought you might benefit, and so you killed him.
01:10:56It's a lie.
01:10:56Ever since you knew I'd found the knife, you've been trying to save your neck.
01:10:59When you left my office, you knew I was about to go to Parkinson, who could tell me he'd given you the knife.
01:11:03So you killed him.
01:11:05And tonight, when you realized that Gordon could trace you by the lighter, you killed him.
01:11:09You're crazy.
01:11:09I tell you you're wrong.
01:11:11Mr. Wittons said anyone might have done it.
01:11:12Didn't he mix the drinks and wasn't halting the bar with him?
01:11:15And the foreign gentleman up above in the room, only one of them could have put the poison in the brandy.
01:11:19How do you know there was poison in the brandy?
01:11:21The other men were killed with a knife.
01:11:22Nobody said how Gordon died?
01:11:24I thought, no, you knew because you put the poison there.
01:11:27So you think yourself never tricking me to say something I didn't mean.
01:11:30Only because I already knew that you'd killed these men.
01:11:32And how did you know?
01:11:33From this.
01:11:35If you look at it closely, you'll see that it has a luminous dial and plain hands.
01:11:39That means the glass and hands have been broken and new ones put in in a hurry.
01:11:43Evidently, the jeweler had no luminous hands in stock.
01:11:46You'd broken this watch.
01:11:48And not wanting a row from Gordon, you had it repaired in the quiet.
01:11:50And it was in your pocket when you killed Parkinson.
01:11:53Then you had what you thought was a brilliant idea.
01:11:55To leave it there in order to throw suspicion on Gordon.
01:11:58It's a pack of lies.
01:11:59Oh, well, if it is, we can easily trace the jeweler.
01:12:01He'll tell us.
01:12:03He'll tell you nothing, for you won't be there to ask him.
01:12:06I took this from the British and the Troubles in Dublin.
01:12:09And Faith, I let you British have it back.
01:12:11And if you tried to stop me, we'd all go together.
01:12:14Well, that's that.
01:12:43Not yet.
01:12:48What will I do now?
01:12:50Well, I think you'd better try a spot of reconstruction.
01:12:55Well, it was a nick and nick race, but we won.
01:12:57There's only one thing that's very great.
01:12:59What's that?
01:13:00A wee clue.
01:13:01You know, I never found the owner of it.
01:13:04I sometimes think I'll never make a detective.
01:13:06Oh, yes, you will.
01:13:07You'll make a perfect slew.
01:13:08I'm complete to the last button.
01:13:10I'm complete to the last button.
01:13:10You will.
01:13:11You will.
01:13:11Oh, yes, you will.
01:13:12ού.
01:13:12Oh, yes.
01:13:14Oh, yes, I may go.
01:13:15I'll never look.
01:13:16No, no, no, no.
01:13:46No, no, no, no.
