00:00:00I don't know
00:00:30Oh, my God.
00:01:00Oh, my God.
00:01:30Have you got me?
00:01:40Yeah.
00:01:41Okay.
00:02:00Oh, my God.
00:02:30I'm safe!
00:02:37Hello, old friend.
00:03:06The last time I was in that dredger, looking for a body, we found two others, completely
00:03:14unconnected.
00:03:15Suicide?
00:03:17Maybe.
00:03:18All right, enough.
00:03:20Their job's hard enough without a machine that goes digging up bodies.
00:03:23That's not nice.
00:03:27That's not nice.
00:03:27That's my eighth one this year.
00:03:36That's my eighth one this year.
00:03:54Glad you're still counting.
00:03:56Precious a daisy, that one.
00:03:58I see most of them are in there for some time.
00:04:01Three of them have never been solved, neither of them.
00:04:04Not exactly a rose garden here, is it?
00:04:16How long's she been down there?
00:04:18No more than a couple of days.
00:04:20No more than a couple of days.
00:04:21Age, about 19 or 20.
00:04:24Some fearsome head and face injuries.
00:04:26Naked, except for that anorak.
00:04:28Naked, except for that anorak.
00:04:28Naked, except for that anorak.
00:04:31Naked, except for that anorak.
00:04:51Ah!
00:04:53I've never seen anything like them in 25 years.
00:05:07Most weapons leave a characteristic wound, but these are extraordinary.
00:05:12Ship?
00:05:14Curved and heavy.
00:05:16Tooth marks on the convex side like a saw, but wider.
00:05:19More deeply serrated.
00:05:21Smooth on the concave side.
00:05:24How many?
00:05:25A dozen wounds on the head.
00:05:27The wounds on the face were made later.
00:05:30Probably in an attempt to make it unrecognisable.
00:05:33Either he got interrupted or he didn't have the stomach to finish it.
00:05:37The second, I'd say, wouldn't you?
00:05:39Could this be the shape of the weapon?
00:05:42Mm-hmm.
00:05:45So, these knots round the earth, they're clove hitches.
00:05:49That's a double fisherman's.
00:05:51What were you, a boy scout?
00:05:53Yeah.
00:05:54They're used by rock climbers.
00:05:56That's climbing rope.
00:05:57And that's the shape of an ice axe.
00:06:01How do you know about mountaineering?
00:06:03I had to go to a theft of climbing equipment from a sports shop once.
00:06:08Dib, dib, dib.
00:06:09All right.
00:06:26All right.
00:06:32I'm really sorry.
00:06:33I've got to guess the adrenaline going.
00:06:38He's not as good as she thinks he is.
00:06:40Look at our fault.
00:06:41Too much slack.
00:06:43Come on, let's just show them.
00:06:45Maybe we should wear some red designer tights.
00:06:47There's the napkins.
00:06:58No, I did tell the butler to pack them, but you know it's late.
00:07:01You just can't get good servants these days.
00:07:02How do you feel now?
00:07:06It's fun when to talk about it.
00:07:08You should.
00:07:12Look at that view.
00:07:13Makes it all worthwhile, eh?
00:07:17You'll have to do nervous again.
00:07:20Not this year.
00:07:22At least you've not lost your touch.
00:07:24Okay, just a lot for a minute.
00:07:34Rest in the words.
00:07:37That's right.
00:07:38Good.
00:07:41Now resist all the way back.
00:07:43That's good.
00:07:48So what does think pink mean?
00:07:51It's to do with rock climbing.
00:07:52Think clear.
00:07:54Think positive.
00:07:55Go for it.
00:07:56You do rock climbing.
00:07:58It's not just a man's sport.
00:08:01Is it no dangerous?
00:08:03No more dangerous than riding motorbikes.
00:08:06By riding's no dangerous.
00:08:08It's other people in cars not looking where they're going.
00:08:13So why'd you become a physiotherapist?
00:08:16I love feeling men's bodies.
00:08:17There are three mountaineering or rock climbing clubs in Glasgow.
00:08:23Two university ones, Glasgow and Strathclyde, each with about 120 members.
00:08:28Then there's the North Face Club.
00:08:30It's more of a hard man's club.
00:08:32Membership of about 50.
00:08:33What do you mean a hard man's club?
00:08:35It's not for your happy amateur.
00:08:37It's more for the diehard.
00:08:39It's a difficult club to join.
00:08:40It's an easy weapon to conceal and carry.
00:08:47Do all climbers have one?
00:08:48Not all serious climbers.
00:08:50It's used for snow and ice work.
00:08:51And as a walking aid in high mountains.
00:08:53But never on rock faces.
00:08:55Only on human faces.
00:08:58So what do mountaineers do on their summer weekends?
00:09:02Head for the mountains.
00:09:04And they leave Glasgow when?
00:09:06On Friday nights, I imagine.
00:09:07I imagine so too.
00:09:10So if this murder was committed and the body dumped in darkness between Friday and Saturday,
00:09:17we could cut down on the figure.
00:09:20Any word on the rope?
00:09:2111 millimetre sheathed cairn mantle rope.
00:09:25On sale for the last 15 years in climbing shops everywhere.
00:09:28The rucksack that weighted the girl's body down is a common make as well.
00:09:33Okay, here's what we'll do.
00:09:35We'll form three teams.
00:09:36Two go to the university clubs.
00:09:38You and me will go to this, er...
00:09:40North Face Club.
00:09:41Ah.
00:09:41Where is it?
00:09:42Ah, it's the Carbeth Inn.
00:09:43About six mills outside Glasgow.
00:09:45I thought you said this was a men's club.
00:09:56That's some women in it.
00:09:59Hey, excuse me.
00:10:00You member of the North Face Club?
00:10:02Who's asking?
00:10:04Watch my lips.
00:10:06Who's your president?
00:10:07We don't have one.
00:10:08The secretary, don't we?
00:10:09We don't have one of them either.
00:10:11This isn't a debating society.
00:10:12How did you agree with me?
00:10:14Who's in charge?
00:10:16Susan Bryant writes the letters.
00:10:17Apart for that, nobody's in charge.
00:10:19Where is she?
00:10:21Inside there.
00:10:22On the left.
00:10:24Great.
00:10:24Susan.
00:10:38Yes?
00:10:39DCI Tiger.
00:10:40Airy Hill Police Station.
00:10:42Detective Sergeant Jarody.
00:10:43We'd like to talk to you and the members of your club.
00:10:53Go ahead.
00:10:54What's it about?
00:10:56Attempted prison breaking.
00:10:57We think someone with climbing skills tried to get up the wall.
00:11:00You're joking.
00:11:02I thought people only tried to break out of prison.
00:11:05It's supposed to help somebody break out.
00:11:06Oh, shit.
00:11:31Oh, shit.
00:11:31Oh, shit.
00:11:38Oh, no.
00:11:38Oh, God.
00:11:39Get up with me.
00:11:44Peter Lewis.
00:11:46Been out of climbing for a while.
00:11:48About six months.
00:11:49Get back into it.
00:11:50Why's that?
00:11:52Just felt the need to...
00:11:53No, no.
00:11:54Where did you get out of there?
00:11:56My son was killed in a rock climbing accident.
00:11:59Been nervous.
00:12:01I was working out of time.
00:12:05I'm sorry.
00:12:07How old was he?
00:12:09Nine.
00:12:10You went climbing with a nine?
00:12:12There's no law against it.
00:12:15And I've been through all that, if you don't mind.
00:12:18What about your Friday night, early Saturday morning?
00:12:20It's home.
00:12:22You didn't go away climbing for the weekend?
00:12:24Friday.
00:12:25Friday.
00:12:26Friday would have been my son's birthday.
00:12:28I was at home.
00:12:33I had things to do.
00:12:34I didn't get out climbing till the Monday.
00:12:37Are all the members of your club in here tonight?
00:12:40Not everyone comes on club night.
00:12:42A lot of the guys go away.
00:12:43Where?
00:12:44Up north.
00:12:45Wales.
00:12:47Lakes.
00:12:48There's a couple gone over to Boulder, Colorado.
00:12:51You haven't answered my question.
00:12:52So nobody's in charge?
00:12:56Well, I am.
00:12:57But they don't think I am.
00:12:58They need a bit of organising, this bunch.
00:13:01It takes a woman to do it.
00:13:03Find that a challenge, do you?
00:13:05It's a bit like climbing Everest.
00:13:07Well, we'll need the names of the ones that aren't here.
00:13:11Well, there's Jack Shepard and Barry McKinley.
00:13:14They're the two in Colorado.
00:13:16And there's Graham Davis.
00:13:18Sorry.
00:13:19No kids allowed.
00:13:21Sue says I can come.
00:13:24Sue isn't in charge.
00:13:26If you want to join the club, you've got to be voted in by six members.
00:13:29Oh.
00:13:30Let them in, Ken.
00:13:31You want the cradle snatch?
00:13:35Go ahead.
00:13:37Just because he got up resurrection and you couldn't.
00:13:44Alpha CC, big 41, silver ball, northbound, M8, intercept.
00:13:49Silver estate, outside line.
00:13:50Go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go.
00:14:01Go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go
00:14:31Good morning, officer.
00:14:34I've got a pilot's license.
00:14:36You do realize there's a speed limit on this road, sir?
00:14:38Yeah, yeah, I know. I'm sorry.
00:14:40Can I see your driver's license, please?
00:14:41Yeah, sure.
00:14:44Your car, is it?
00:14:45No, it belongs to the hotel where I work, up at Acuna Cray.
00:14:48If you want proof of that, you can phone the manager.
00:14:51Robert Meiklejoy?
00:14:52That's right.
00:14:54You don't recognize me under the cap, do you?
00:14:58Chris Craig.
00:14:59Oh, you look familiar.
00:15:02What are you doing in this job?
00:15:04You went into the army, didn't you?
00:15:05Yeah, flagged it in.
00:15:07Too much little hard work.
00:15:09Listen, you're not going to give me a ticket for speeding, are you?
00:15:12Whose name is the car registered under?
00:15:15Ashenberg.
00:15:16Who?
00:15:17Countess von Ashenberg.
00:15:19Seriously?
00:15:19Aye.
00:15:20She owns a hotel and a whole Acuna Cray estate.
00:15:23Most of Scotland's all my bloody foreigners, eh?
00:15:25Your parents still in Dumbarton?
00:15:27Yeah, just been visiting them.
00:15:29Silver wedding anniversary.
00:15:31Look, if you want to check up on the ownership of the car, I don't mind, but, eh, I've got a hell of a drive in front of me.
00:15:36Takes about seven hours.
00:15:41What a shit.
00:15:42Come on, you.
00:15:43Swearing at a police officer, sir.
00:15:44Gene, where's my tie?
00:15:54Gene?
00:15:55What is it?
00:15:57I should be asking you, then?
00:16:00It's a new technique.
00:16:02A mixture of meditation and changing your whole life system by integrating into daily patterns new avenues of potential.
00:16:10Sounds fun.
00:16:11Well, basically, it says that we're all trapped, that we should all do at least one thing a day, totally out of character, something nobody expects us to do, like changing your favourite colour or playing a different kind of music.
00:16:26An American publication, is it?
00:16:30Oh, Professor Ackerman's American, but he lectures in Birmingham.
00:16:35I'm going there to a three-day working seminar.
00:16:38It's particularly helpful to disabled people.
00:16:40You'll have a nice time.
00:16:44Well, you ought to read it.
00:16:46Gene, when do I get time to read?
00:16:48You see, you're predictable.
00:16:50You want to explore with your mind.
00:16:52I explore with my mind all day.
00:16:58Wondering how a 20-year-old girl isn't missed for days.
00:17:02He was the flashiest bastard of the school.
00:17:13Sir, I've been trying to trace these climbers that left Glasgow the day after the murder.
00:17:19Did you say the list of names that Susan Bryant gave you was all the absent members of the North Face Club?
00:17:24Yes.
00:17:25A few mentioned a guy called Russell Henry.
00:17:28She didn't.
00:17:28Yeah, he used to be her boyfriend and climate partner, apparently.
00:17:32So?
00:17:33Just seems strange you missed him out.
00:17:37Is he a home and away?
00:17:38I'm a bit vague about that.
00:17:39He hasn't been to the club for a while.
00:17:41He's a PE teacher at Kelvinside School.
00:17:43Check him out.
00:17:44Right.
00:17:47Of course, sir, there's always a possibility that the victim wasn't local.
00:17:51That the body was brought here from somewhere else, like England.
00:17:55Thank you, Mike.
00:17:58Have you used to be a PE teacher?
00:18:05No.
00:18:06That's a shame.
00:18:08Oops.
00:18:09Where's Mr. Henry?
00:18:11Rocky One's our film.
00:18:12Rocky One?
00:18:13That's our name from the film.
00:18:15Are you afraid of him, then?
00:18:17No.
00:18:18We thought maybe you were a rock climber as well.
00:18:20Mr. Henry wears these bright yellow tights.
00:18:22He brought in slides of himself to show us one.
00:18:25And we watched him at the Kelvin Hall.
00:18:27Kelvin Hall?
00:18:28He teaches beginners there on the climbing wall.
00:18:31Thanks a lot.
00:18:32Hey, you.
00:18:51You're placing from the pub last night, aren't you?
00:18:52Seems to be a popular sport.
00:18:55You must need a head for heights.
00:18:57No, not really.
00:18:58I'd just look up rather than down.
00:19:01What happens if you get stuck?
00:19:02Depends.
00:19:03Her leg starts shaking.
00:19:05Start to bang them against the rock.
00:19:08Is Susan around?
00:19:11Uh-huh.
00:19:11You want to speak to her?
00:19:14She's down in the track.
00:19:15Refuge in the work, dear, is it?
00:19:42Not just.
00:19:43It's useful training.
00:19:45Russell Henry.
00:19:47Member of the North Face Club.
00:19:49You didn't include his name.
00:19:51Didn't I?
00:19:52No.
00:19:54I believe he's an old boyfriend of yours.
00:19:57Climbing partner?
00:19:59Russell doesn't come out with a club much now.
00:20:01He's sort of broken away.
00:20:03That's probably why I didn't think of him.
00:20:06Why did you split up?
00:20:08Why are you interested in him?
00:20:10Just tying up a few loose ends.
00:20:12I didn't believe that story you told last night.
00:20:16I look back to Saturday's papers.
00:20:18There's no news of a prison break.
00:20:20In or out.
00:20:22You could be right.
00:20:24Russell.
00:20:25Russell and I split.
00:20:27Mainly because of his attitude.
00:20:28I introduced Jason to the club.
00:20:31Over there.
00:20:32They don't like youngsters under 18.
00:20:35I brought Jason on to climb.
00:20:36Russell and Ken Sturton were just bastards.
00:20:41How?
00:20:41Well, Jason was soloing.
00:20:44That's climbing without ropes or equipment.
00:20:46He got over the first three pitches of resurrection.
00:20:49A climb Ken never managed.
00:20:51Then he lost a foothold.
00:20:53Ken and Russell were on top with ropes and equipment.
00:20:55They could have lowered it to him.
00:20:57But they didn't.
00:20:59He let them sweat for 20 minutes.
00:21:01It happens when someone younger comes along.
00:21:22We'll be right down there.
00:21:23Divers have brought up a suitcase.
00:21:28About 300 yards downriver.
00:21:30Yes.
00:21:30Could be.
00:21:31Lumps of granite inside are similar to those we found in the rucksack.
00:21:43Act the Cray malt.
00:21:45Bet you've never tried that one.
00:21:47Act the Cray?
00:21:48I think that's up in Sutherland.
00:21:50Is that not Juchter country?
00:21:53Who's that?
00:21:56Her name?
00:21:57Elizabeth Ashenberg.
00:22:00Ashenberg?
00:22:04Be some Jorgen naughty.
00:22:23I think that's up in Sutherland.
00:22:35I think that's up in Sutherland.
00:22:35I think that's up in Sutherland.

00:24:24How is the car?
00:24:26Fine. No trouble at all.
00:24:29Seems to be in one piece.
00:24:32Well, it's more than can be said for your car.
00:24:36That wasn't my fault, and you know it.
00:24:38Never is.
00:24:40The police contacted me to ask me if you had it with permission.
00:24:43Oh, yeah. Sorry about that.
00:24:46Couple of Glasgow cops got a wee bit overzealous.
00:24:49Believe it or not, I'd been at school with one of them.
00:24:52Dopey, this bastard in the class.
00:24:57That mark was there, Richard.
00:24:59Was I blaming you?
00:25:01No.
00:25:02You must have a guilty conscience.
00:25:09I picked up this cracking French hitchhiker.
00:25:1218 years old.
00:25:14Really beautiful.
00:25:16Long, blonde hair.
00:25:23These girls ask for trouble, don't they?
00:25:26I don't know.
00:25:28Do they?
00:25:30Good to have you back.
00:25:33Oh, Richard.
00:25:37Present from the Lake District.
00:25:39The girl's mother is Countess von Aschenberg. They're Austrian.
00:25:54An Act of Crave.
00:25:55And what they state about ten years ago.
00:25:57She's flying down tomorrow from Inverness.
00:25:59What was the girl doing in Glasgow?
00:26:01She'd come down for three weeks to work as a nanny in response to an advert on the Scotsman.
00:26:07She was to be met at the airport.
00:26:10Young women wanted by a respectable family in Glasgow to look after two children for three weeks.
00:26:15Must be bright, intelligent and of good appearance.
00:26:18Write to Mr. and Mrs. Carnegie, Garnock House, Crossmill Road, Lindsay.
00:26:22Well, check on my nose, sir.
00:26:23I already have.
00:26:24They don't exist.
00:26:25Neither does the address.
00:26:27Hello.
00:26:28Please, who is this?
00:26:46Who is this?
00:27:14There's about twenty letters to that address.
00:27:16Three weeks ago or so.
00:27:18What did you do with them?
00:27:19I used my head.
00:27:20I tried Dornock House, Crosshill Road.
00:27:23A couple that lived there are called Carlisle.
00:27:25It was near enough.
00:27:26Isn't there a sticker you can put on?
00:27:28Address not known or something like that?
00:27:30Aye, you can do.
00:27:31Letters often get wrong the address and you've got to use your intelligence.
00:27:34I just tried it.
00:27:36I've got up that way now, in fact.
00:27:38It's the start of my round.
00:27:39You can give me a lift.
00:27:41I've been gone about two months.
00:27:55He's an insurance investigator.
00:27:57Works in Barcelona.
00:27:58Come back about six times a year.
00:28:00Luckily the neighbour kept a key.
00:28:02Have you ever noticed anybody waiting round here when you've been on your delivery?
00:28:11No.
00:28:12And nobody's asked you questions about these wrongly addressed letters?
00:28:16No.
00:28:17Sir.
00:28:18None of them have even been opened.
00:28:27Are you finished with me?
00:28:42Aye, thanks.
00:28:43If any more of these come in, contact us.
00:28:46I'll try and remember.
00:28:47Oh, come on.
00:28:48You can do better than try.
00:28:50For us.
00:28:53Maybe the newspaper printed the wrong address.
00:28:56In that case, how did Mr. Carnegie get Elizabeth's letter?
00:29:00No.
00:29:01No?
00:29:02No.
00:29:03The car is in it?
00:29:04No.
00:29:05I do theño.
00:29:06Theтаки, the car is in.
00:29:08No.
00:29:10I'm not holding.
00:29:15No.
00:29:16No.
00:29:24If you won't be fired, I'll win nothing back up.
00:29:26No.
00:29:27Oh, you've got the letter.
00:29:36Well, that's a copy, sir.
00:29:37The original is down at Forensic.
00:29:39The newspaper printed the address on the letter,
00:29:42so it was the letter writer that made the mistake.
00:29:44How was it paid for?
00:29:45Postal order, main office, Inverness.
00:29:48Number of witnesses remember seeing her on the plane,
00:29:50but nobody can recall seeing her with anyone at the airport.
00:29:52What was he? Invisible?
00:29:54People waiting in passengers are usually looking out
00:29:56for the person they're waiting for. Nobody else.
00:30:00They must have put a card or something with her name on it
00:30:03so that she'd know who he was.
00:30:05Well, if you wanted to lure someone to their death, sir,
00:30:08would you advertise yourself?
00:30:12Hello, Taggart here.
00:30:15Yes, we'll be done in five minutes. Thank you.
00:30:20Excuse me, sir. Can I have a word?
00:30:22Aye, make it quick.
00:30:23On Wednesday morning, I stopped this guy speeding.
00:30:25I realised he was an old-school friend of mine,
00:30:29Robbie Micklejohn.
00:30:30What do you want us to do?
00:30:31Break a bottle?
00:30:32He mentioned the name, von Aschenberg.
00:30:36He works up in a hotel in Achnacrae,
00:30:38which he says belongs to her.
00:30:40He was doing Glasgow visiting his parents.
00:30:42Write down all you know about him.
00:30:44Leave it on my desk.
00:30:45Good night.
00:30:45Sorry we're late.
00:31:04Chief Inspector Taggart, Detective Sergeant Jardine.
00:31:07I'm Jack McFarlane.
00:31:09This is Elizabeth's mother, Countess von Aschenberg.
00:31:12Shall we go in?
00:31:13Um, is it necessary for both of us?
00:31:15I mean, can't I just do it?
00:31:17I'm afraid we need two people to identify the body.
00:31:20I'm afraid we need two people to identify the body.
00:31:21I'm afraid we need two people to identify the body.
00:31:22I'm afraid we need two people to identify the body.
00:31:23I'm afraid we need two people to identify the body.
00:31:24I'm afraid we need two people to identify the body.
00:31:25I'm afraid we need two people to identify the body.
00:31:26I'm afraid we need two people to identify the body.
00:31:27I'm afraid we need two people to identify the body.
00:31:28I'm afraid we need two people to identify the body.
00:31:29I'm afraid we need two people to identify the body.
00:31:30I'm afraid we need two people to identify the body.
00:31:31I'm afraid we need two people to identify the body.
00:31:32I'm afraid we need two people to identify the body.
00:31:33I'm afraid we need two people to identify the body.
00:31:34I'm afraid we need two people to identify the body.
00:31:35I'm sorry. I have a daughter myself.
00:31:53She telephoned me from Glasgow Airport to say Mr Carnegie had met her.
00:31:59That she was safe.
00:32:02That's the last I heard from her.
00:32:05I wish Al had asked to all.
00:32:09Did she tell you anything about him?
00:32:11No, only from the telephone calls he made to her.
00:32:15He was a banker.
00:32:18They lived in a large house. They had two children aged to four of them.
00:32:21Did you ever speak to him on the phone, Al?
00:32:24I wish I had done.
00:32:29Who are these people? The Carnegie's?
00:32:32It was the wrong address. Probably a false name too.
00:32:35Well then, where did Elizabeth's reply go?
00:32:38There were a number of replies. All the letters were redirected to her. Real address.
00:32:42Just a minute. Are you telling me that some maniac lured her down here?
00:32:45What do you do, Mr McFarland?
00:32:48I'm a fish farmer.
00:32:50Something I know nothing about.
00:32:52Well, I don't know much about being a chief inspector.
00:32:55Chief inspector.
00:32:56I didn't want her to come to Glasgow.
00:33:02Why?
00:33:04She'd never lived away from home before.
00:33:07Away from me.
00:33:09And Glasgow has such a reputation, doesn't it?
00:33:13Not anymore.
00:33:15What was his motive in luring her down?
00:33:17We don't know.
00:33:19Please.
00:33:21I must know.
00:33:23Was she sexually assaulted?
00:33:27No.
00:33:28So his motive is a mystery.
00:33:31Well, I take it she was picked at random.
00:33:33You mentioned lots of other replies.
00:33:35Maybe.
00:33:37Did anyone draw Elizabeth's attention to this advert?
00:33:41No. I don't think so.
00:33:43I thought you said she read it in the paper while you were with her.
00:33:46That's right.
00:33:48No, I don't think anyone showed us, Edward.
00:33:51Did you know anyone in Inverness?
00:33:53No.
00:33:55But why?
00:33:57Did you have any friends in Glasgow, from Glasgow?
00:34:01No.
00:34:02Well, it was Robbie.
00:34:03He's from Glasgow.
00:34:05Robbie.
00:34:06The barman at the local hotel.
00:34:07Part of the Countess for Naschenberg's estate.
00:34:09Robbie could have nothing to do with this.
00:34:12They broke up a year ago.
00:34:14Oh.
00:34:15Broke up.
00:34:17Yes.
00:34:19I stopped the relationship.
00:34:21Robbie who?
00:34:22Meikle John.
00:34:25Get those details off my desk.
00:34:29How long's this Meikle John worked up there?
00:34:32About, er, three years.
00:34:34He likes it in the north because of the mountains.
00:34:39He's a climber.
00:34:40He's a climber.
00:34:41He likes it, too.
00:34:43He likes it.
00:34:48He likes it.
00:34:50He likes it.
00:34:53I have no idea.
00:34:54No, it's no matter.
00:34:57He likes it.
00:34:59He likes it.
00:35:01He likes it.
00:35:02He likes it.
00:35:03Drink no duty, Richard.
00:35:17Just been listening to the radio.
00:35:19I often wondered how the hotel was managed.
00:35:22You won't laugh when you hear the news.
00:35:29Elizabeth's dead.
00:35:31Oh, come on, Richard.
00:35:33I'm not joking.
00:35:36It was her body they found in the Clyde.
00:35:39I heard the Countess and Jack McFarlane have gone off somewhere,
00:35:42but I had no idea where.
00:35:44Come on, you're not joking. I don't believe you.
00:35:46You'll believe me when the police question you about it.
00:35:50After all, you were in Glasgow.
00:35:56Weren't you?
00:35:56You're in Glasgow.
00:35:59No!
00:36:07Wow.
00:36:08Wait. Wait. Wait. Wait. Wait.
00:36:10Wait. Wait. Wait.
00:36:32You wanted to see me again, sir?
00:36:34Yes.
00:36:36What do you do while you're waiting for confirmation about the ownership of this car?
00:36:40Do, sir?
00:36:41Well, did you turn it over?
00:36:43No, sir.
00:36:44Why not?
00:36:45Well, there seemed no reason to.
00:36:47He was speeding.
00:36:49He wasn't the owner of the car.
00:36:51I knew him, sir. He was an old friend.
00:36:54Climber.
00:36:56He was a mountain climber.
00:36:58Is he, sir? I don't know.
00:37:01You would have known if you'd looked in the back of that car.
00:37:04We've been in contact with his parents.
00:37:06They tell us when he came down here, the car was full of climbing equipment.
00:37:11So what did you talk about?
00:37:14School days, sir.
00:37:17It's just as well for you they got rid of this tramp.
00:37:20It's just as well for you they got rid of this tramp.
00:37:22You'd like me to come in?
00:37:23Thank you. I'd rather be on my own.
00:37:29You'd like me to come in?
00:37:44Thank you. I'd rather be on my own.
00:37:47I'd rather be on my own.
00:37:51I'd rather be on my own.
00:37:53I'd rather be on my own.
00:37:55Why are you doing it?
00:37:57Call me.
00:38:10I'll say goodbye to Jean.
00:38:23What have you got in here?
00:38:26A gallon of midges, Bray.
00:38:28Oh, midges.
00:38:32I didn't know Mrs. Taggart like Janice.
00:38:35Neither did I.
00:38:40Jean, what are you doing?
00:38:46It's all part of the Ackerman technique.
00:38:48Surprise yourself, surprise others.
00:38:51You've never painted.
00:38:52The Ackerman technique says you needn't have done something in the past to do it now.
00:38:57Oh, don't look, it's a surprise.
00:38:59I think you're very enterprising, Mrs. Taggart.
00:39:02Don't encourage her. She'll be ordering blocks of stone next.
00:39:05Thank you, Mike. Artists need encouragement.
00:39:07We'll be back once we've interviewed this Mikkeljohn guy about the Ackerman murder.
00:39:12Oh, the Ashenberg murder.
00:39:14Come on, we've got to pay in the trash.
00:39:16I may be in Birmingham when you get back.
00:39:18The Ackerman seminar.
00:39:19I'm going to write a bestseller about how to con people by stating the obvious.
00:39:33Surprise yourself.
00:39:35Surprise others.
00:39:36You know, sir, there's only one thing wrong about the theory.
00:39:43Elizabeth's phone call to say that Mr. Carnegie had met her.
00:39:46I know that.
00:39:47But until we get up there, it's all we've got.
00:39:50I know that.
00:40:04I know that.
00:40:05I know that.
00:40:07So, you've never been up this way before?
00:40:24Once, at the end.
00:40:26I see these hills with a different colour on them every day.
00:40:31Orange, purple, red, indigo.
00:40:34This is eagle country.
00:40:38If you look up there on the tops, you might be lucky and see one.
00:40:41You're a keen ornithologist, then?
00:40:43Everybody needs a hobby.
00:40:45Thirty years ago, I fell in love with the green shank,
00:40:48and I've been a happy man ever since.
00:40:53How much longer will it take us to get there?
00:40:59Of course, I didn't try to see her in Glasgow.
00:41:01I didn't even know she was there at the same time.
00:41:04Do you please think you showed us that advert?
00:41:05That's nonsense.
00:41:07I wasn't even in Glasgow the night she arrived.
00:41:09I was climbing in the Lake District.
00:41:10I thought you went home to visit your parents.
00:41:13Yeah, I did.
00:41:13I did some climbing as well.
00:41:16I want to believe you.
00:41:19You know it's true.
00:41:21You know I wouldn't harm her hair on her head.
00:41:23I wish she'd stayed.
00:41:29And she would have done.
00:41:30How's she taking it?
00:41:44Badly.
00:41:46I think she feels guilty.
00:41:48Sounds awful to say it, I know, but she always cosseted Elizabeth.
00:41:52Uh, can you do a round of drinks for the boys over there?
00:41:56What was the motive?
00:41:58Sex.
00:41:59They don't know.
00:42:01Seems remarkable, considering the state of forensic science.
00:42:05And Bob over there with his degree in marine biology could be getting results by now.
00:42:08They must know where she sent her reply.
00:42:11Of course they do.
00:42:12They've even got his letter.
00:42:13You know, they seem more interested in people up here for some reason.
00:42:18Why up here?
00:42:20Well, I think someone showed her the advert.
00:42:22Someone up here?
00:42:24Don't worry, Richard.
00:42:25Whatever the motive, I don't think anyone will suspect you.
00:42:28What's that?
00:42:31I would like to take that man out to his fish farm and throw him in.
00:42:36He just might learn something about fish farming in that process.
00:42:39No, no, no.
00:42:40If there isn't foreigners owning land up here, it's yuppies.
00:42:45If anyone had a motive, it's him.
00:42:48Just think.
00:42:57Oh.
00:42:58We're looking for Robert Meiklejohn.
00:43:09Robert Meiklejohn?
00:43:11Yeah, that's me.
00:43:13These police officers are from Glasgow.
00:43:15They'd like to talk to you.
00:43:17I've got nothing to hide.
00:43:22Well, the first I knew of it was when I got back.
00:43:25You didn't put an advert in the Scotsman and draw attention to it?
00:43:28No, of course I didn't.
00:43:29How did you meet Elizabeth?
00:43:31She took her fancy to me.
00:43:33I think I was a rock climbing.
00:43:35It's a turn-on for some girls.
00:43:37Why did you break up?
00:43:38Well, the Countess wanted Elizabeth to marry someone from her own background.
00:43:42She's like that.
00:43:43Austrian aristocracy.
00:43:45Bloody feudal.
00:43:47Take a seat.
00:43:48Well, you're quite a lad, eh, Robbie?
00:43:58You start from the army for unlawful possession of a weapon.
00:44:01And I hear you're quite a ladies' man.
00:44:07What are you doing in this godforsaken part of the country?
00:44:10What, it's good climbing?
00:44:11It's quiet.
00:44:12Your parents told us that they wish you'd settle down, Robbie.
00:44:15Oh, right, you got this from them.
00:44:17Well, what do you have to go and see them for?
00:44:19They'll be worried sick.
00:44:20You didn't see them on Friday the 2nd?
00:44:22No.
00:44:22I went down to the Lake District, camped, did some climbing.
00:44:27Was there any ice or snow on the tops?
00:44:33In June.
00:44:35You didn't need an ice axe?
00:44:37No.
00:44:38Well, where are you at half past two in that day?
00:44:40I can't remember exactly.
00:44:42You were by yourself?
00:44:43Yeah, I prefer soloing.
00:44:45Pity.
00:44:46Because we've only got your word for it.
00:44:51I have to...
00:44:54Wait a minute, I didn't get there till I'm half one.
00:44:57Then I had a drink in the Climus bar of the wain-righted tell.
00:45:01The barman.
00:45:03He'll remember me.
00:45:03I went out and helped him bump-start his car.
00:45:12Tell me the worst.
00:45:21We might as well buy our souvenirs and go home.
00:45:23Barman remembers Robbie.
00:45:25You can describe him.
00:45:26And there's no doubt about the day either.
00:45:28Dammit.
00:45:29Yeah.
00:45:30Rock hard alibi, you could say.
00:45:32Let's face it.
00:45:33He wasn't Mr. Carnegie.
00:45:34Carnegie placed the advert in Inverness.
00:45:38The answer's up here.
00:45:39I know it is.
00:45:42Listen.
00:45:43I found out something interesting.
00:45:45I was talking to Smiley, the manager of the hotel.
00:45:48Jack McFarlane's not so popular up here.
00:45:50Why?
00:45:51New money.
00:45:53What he knows about fish farming, you could write in the back of a postage stamp.
00:45:57He's got other folk running the show for him.
00:45:59Is that relevant to us?
00:46:02Well, Elizabeth didn't like him either.
00:46:06Gossip as he was after the Countess.
00:46:08Step up a social ladder.
00:46:11You think Elizabeth stood on his way?
00:46:13Ambition.
00:46:14Possible motive.
00:46:17Anyway, let's find somewhere to stay.
00:46:19What about you?
00:46:20Nah, we'll get away from here.
00:46:21Must be another hotel.
00:46:29I'm sure you'll be comfortable here.
00:46:47I'll have a car sent up to you in the morning.
00:46:49If you want any more help, just ask.
00:46:59Do either of you smoke?
00:47:03No.
00:47:04That's good, because I don't allow smoking in the bedrooms.
00:47:08The bathroom's next door and the toilet's along the landing.
00:47:11Breakfast is at 8 o'clock.
00:47:13But if you want sandwiches and a cup of tea, you can have them downstairs in half an hour.
00:47:19I'll leave you to it then.
00:47:21Hope you'll be comfortable.
00:47:22Well, I'll be comfortable.
00:47:29Another hotel, sir.
00:47:35Another hotel.
00:47:42Nylon sheets.
00:47:56Hello, Mrs. Macbeth.
00:47:59Oh, yes, just a moment.
00:48:03I'll put your arm down.
00:48:05Mr. Taggart, there's a call for you if you'd like to take it.
00:48:08You might have to turn it round to get the best signal.
00:48:11We get interference here.
00:48:13Hello.
00:48:18Static.
00:48:20It's those sheets.
00:48:23Hello.
00:48:25Inspector Taggart.
00:48:26Chief Inspector.
00:48:27I've tracked you down.
00:48:31You can't keep any secrets around here.
00:48:35I'd like to meet and talk with you.
00:48:38Right.
00:48:39I'll be over as soon as I can.
00:48:41Bye.
00:48:43Who is that?
00:48:44Countess von Aschenberg.
00:48:46Nice place you've got here.
00:49:06My husband loves the outdoors.
00:49:09Come in.
00:49:10Very impressive.
00:49:20Is that the family Christ?
00:49:21They had large estates in Bohemia.
00:49:24They were confiscated in 1918.
00:49:26Mm-hmm.
00:49:27After the First World War.
00:49:28Well, you'll have to forgive me.
00:49:30History wasn't my strong point in school.
00:49:33Our titles, too, were abolished.
00:49:36Back home.
00:49:37I'd just be Frau Aschenberg.
00:49:39Our titles important.
00:49:41They're out to me.
00:49:42Is that the family?
00:49:43That was my husband.
00:49:49And that's Elizabeth.
00:49:50Oh.
00:49:53Did she like living up here?
00:49:55She liked being so close to the sea.
00:49:57We don't have the sea in Austria.
00:50:00She wanted to be a writer.
00:50:02Like Daphne du Maurier.
00:50:03How did you know?
00:50:05We found her books in the suitcase.
00:50:07Yes.
00:50:07Elizabeth liked to think she was modern.
00:50:17That I was old-fashioned.
00:50:19I wanted her to marry someone of her own class.
00:50:24Is that why you broke up her relationship with the barmen?
00:50:29How many fish do you have out there?
00:50:31About a quarter of a million.
00:50:33I believe they started in China in the Far East.
00:50:36Hell of a long journey in that case.
00:50:39I meant the concept of fish farming.
00:50:41What exactly did you want to see me about?
00:50:44To ask you about your relationship with the Countess and her daughter.
00:50:47I believe Elizabeth didn't like you.
00:50:52Who told you that?
00:50:53The truth?
00:50:56She resented my friendship with her mother.
00:51:00She was very close to her father.
00:51:02Is that all it is?
00:51:04Friendship?
00:51:06You're getting a bit personal, aren't you?
00:51:08Part of the job.
00:51:13Teresa was always very possessive of Elizabeth.
00:51:16Wanting her to marry someone from a title background.
00:51:19And then when I came along, Elizabeth turned the tables.
00:51:22Tried to make out that I wasn't good enough for her mother.
00:51:27Now that she's dead, will you pursue matters?
00:51:30I'm not one to take advantage of situations, but if the opportunity arose, yeah.
00:51:39You said you wanted to speak to me about something important.
00:51:51I do.
00:51:52It's about Robbie.
00:51:53He has assured me he has nothing to do with Elizabeth's death.
00:51:57And I believe him.
00:51:59He was in love with Elizabeth.
00:52:02Well, love can mean all kinds of things.
00:52:07Hate, jealousy, guilts.
00:52:09Don't you think I'm feeling guilty?
00:52:14Perhaps I drove her away from home.
00:52:17Listening in on her telephone calls.
00:52:20Listened in?
00:52:20Why?
00:52:21Only to protect her.
00:52:22But you never listened in to the ones from Mr. Carnegie?
00:52:29No.
00:52:30They always happened when I was out.
00:52:33The one occasion I could have protected her.
00:52:41Tell me about Jack McFarlane.
00:52:46He's a good neighbour.
00:52:49Except when he comes round here and smokes those dreadful sheroots.
00:52:52The house has been bought since you left.
00:53:19And no one's picked up the other reply.
00:53:26Still think the answer's up there?
00:53:28I do, sir.
00:53:29That's why I think we should stay another day.
00:53:34We'll ring you tomorrow.
00:53:35Bye.
00:53:35Bye.
00:53:43Right.
00:53:44We'll go and talk to everyone else Elizabeth knew.
00:53:47Which means another night at Lady Macbeth's.
00:53:49I can think of worse things.
00:53:52Midges.
00:53:53Hello?
00:53:58Hello?
00:54:00I'm sorry.
00:56:00This is never get dark up here.
00:56:30No, no!
00:56:42No!
00:56:43No!
00:56:44No!

00:58:05No!
00:58:06No!
00:58:07No!
00:58:08No, just seemed to be waiting for somebody.
00:58:10Funny place to be waiting for someone.
00:58:12Morning! What's going on?
00:58:14Just you stay there, sir, please.
00:58:16I own this land.
00:58:18Oh, it's all right. Let him through.
00:58:22All right. Morning.
00:58:24Come down here, please.
00:58:26Someone camped in here last night.
00:58:28Do you know who it was?
00:58:30Oh, no idea. Do you normally allow campers?
00:58:32Well, that's a popular place for climbers.
00:58:34I don't mind so long as they don't leave a mess.
00:58:36Well,
00:58:38this one was untidy.
00:58:40Jesus.
00:58:54Could be unconnected.
00:58:56The coincidence of it is.
00:58:58How many killings are you supposed to get up here in a year?
00:59:00Ice axe again.
00:59:02Injuries look similar.
00:59:04That's possible.
00:59:06Sir!
00:59:18Did you know he was camping here?
00:59:20No, I didn't.
00:59:22Would you take a look at him?
00:59:24See if you recognize him.
00:59:28I'll warn you.
00:59:30It's not a pretty sight.
00:59:32No.
00:59:34Eh, not yet, if you don't mind.
00:59:36The first murder we've had up here in twenty years.
00:59:38And on a Sunday, too.
00:59:40The police surgeon's on his way.
00:59:42He's had to be dragged out the kirk.
00:59:44Ha!
00:59:45Mr. Scamino.
00:59:46Looks like we've found our mystery man.
00:59:48It's, uh, signed by Elizabeth.
00:59:50Can't one have any privacy?
00:59:52Have you heard the news?
00:59:54What?
00:59:56There's been another murder.
00:59:58What?
00:59:59On Jack McFarlane's land.
01:00:00Somebody in a tent.
01:00:02Where were you last night?
01:00:03Where were you last night?
01:00:04What?
01:00:05There's been another murder.
01:00:06What?
01:00:07On Jack McFarlane's land.
01:00:08Somebody in a tent.
01:00:09Where were you last night?
01:00:10Richard, that's not funny.
01:00:11Nobody's saying it's connected, but the police might think it is.
01:00:13What?
01:00:14Can't one have any privacy?
01:00:17Can't one have any privacy?
01:00:19Have you heard the news?
01:00:20What?
01:00:21There's been another murder.
01:00:22What?
01:00:23On Jack McFarlane's land.
01:00:25Somebody in a tent.
01:00:28Where were you last night?
01:00:33Richard, that's not funny.
01:00:34Nobody's saying it's connected, but the police might think it is.
01:00:37You'll be the first person they come to.
01:00:45Richard.
01:00:48Let me get dressed, eh?
01:00:59Jack just told me.
01:01:01Is there a link with Elizabeth?
01:01:03We'd like to see a specimen of Elizabeth's handwriting.
01:01:06A letter.
01:01:07Signature.
01:01:08Anything like that.
01:01:09Why?
01:01:10Do you have something?
01:01:12Yes.
01:01:13You seem to be following us around, Mr McFarlane.
01:01:14Well, I didn't want to hear about it from anyone else.
01:01:16Any reason for that?
01:01:20Do you think murders happen up here every day?
01:01:21Here you are.
01:01:22It's a story she once wrote.
01:01:23Will it do?
01:01:24Writing's very different from her signature.
01:01:25Michael, a minute.
01:01:26Excuse us.
01:01:27There's a copy of the original letter that was sent to the Scotsman.
01:01:28There's Elizabeth's handwriting.
01:01:29They're identical.
01:01:30She placed the letter herself.
01:01:31She placed the letter herself.
01:01:32Mr Carnegie never existed.
01:01:33It's a copy of the original letter that was sent to the Scotsman.
01:01:34There's Elizabeth's handwriting.
01:01:35They're identical.
01:01:36She placed the letter herself.
01:01:37Mr Carnegie never existed.
01:01:38Why would she have written it?
01:01:39I think I know.
01:01:40I don't know.
01:01:41I don't know.
01:01:42I don't know.
01:01:43I don't know.
01:01:44I don't know.
01:01:45I don't know.
01:01:46I don't know.
01:01:47It's very different from her signature.
01:01:48Michael, a minute.
01:01:49Excuse us.
01:01:50There's a copy of the original letter that was sent to the Scotsman.
01:01:53There's Elizabeth's handwriting.
01:01:55They're identical.
01:01:56She placed the letter herself.
01:01:59Mr Carnegie never existed.
01:02:01Why would she have written it?
01:02:02I think I know.
01:02:10Have you come up with something?
01:02:11Can you leave us alone, please, Mr McFarlane?
01:02:13Why?
01:02:14Because we want to speak to the Countess on her own.
01:02:20If it's important, I'm staying with her.
01:02:22Oh, Jack, please leave.
01:02:24Look, Theresa.
01:02:25Oh, Jack, please.
01:02:27And don't forget these.
01:02:35Would you please sit down?
01:02:40That's the letter that was sent to the Scotsman along with the advert.
01:02:48It's in Elizabeth's handwriting.
01:02:50She placed it herself.
01:02:51My guest says she wanted to get away from you.
01:02:54She invented an employer.
01:02:56When she rang you from Glasgow Airport, she lied.
01:02:59There was no Mr Carnegie.
01:03:02No.
01:03:05I didn't want to believe she was still seeing Robbie.
01:03:09No.
01:03:11A couple of times, a few months ago,
01:03:15Elizabeth answered the phone,
01:03:17and I lifted the extension.
01:03:21The caller asked if this was Ratten's Rest.
01:03:25Elizabeth said, wrong number.
01:03:28The caller said, cross wires, and hung up.
01:03:33Ratten's Rest?
01:03:34Yes.
01:03:37It was a code they obviously had.
01:03:41Because of me.
01:03:42If you thought it was Robbie,
01:03:45why did you say nothing about these phone calls?
01:03:48I didn't think they had anything to do with her murder.
01:03:51I don't know if this is important.
01:03:56All weekend after she left, the phone kept ringing.
01:04:01Every time I picked it up, it was put down.
01:04:05Why do you think it was Robbie?
01:04:06Who else could it have been?
01:04:07He was in the hotel hall last night till the bar closed about one o'clock.
01:04:11How do you know when the crime was committed?
01:04:12I don't.
01:04:13All I'm saying is he was behind the...
01:04:14We were chatting till about two.
01:04:15Richard.
01:04:16I'll be all right, okay?
01:04:18Sir?
01:04:19Sir?
01:04:20Sir?
01:04:21What are you doing?
01:04:22I'm going to get to the hotel hall.
01:04:23I'm going to get to the hotel hall.
01:04:25I'm going to get to the hotel hall.
01:04:26I'm going to get to the hotel hall last night till the bar closed about one o'clock.
01:04:27How do you know when the crime was committed?
01:04:28I don't.
01:04:29All I'm saying is he was behind...
01:04:30We were chatting till about two.
01:04:31Richard.
01:04:32I'll be all right, okay?
01:05:03It's the name of a clime, a Dumfries outcrop.
01:05:09A clime?
01:05:11All climes have names, right?
01:05:13First to the top, christens them.
01:05:14So you've got Ratton's Rest, Tour de Force, Hotlips, Crosswire.
01:05:18Crosswire?
01:05:20Yeah.
01:05:24You must meet people who know these climes.
01:05:27Sure, all the time.
01:05:30And Elizabeth.
01:05:31Yeah.
01:05:32Any names?
01:05:33Yeah, there was a guy she went crazy about last summer from Glasgow.
01:05:40We all went up Bend Air together at Russell's Humority, teacher.
01:05:43Russell?
01:05:44Henry, by any chance?
01:05:46Yeah, that's the one.
01:05:47The school teacher, I think.
01:05:48Was she serious about him?
01:05:50About as serious as you can get in a week.
01:05:53Of course, her mother didn't know anything.
01:05:54Weren't you jealous?
01:05:58Me?
01:05:59I was glad.
01:06:01She was getting too heavy.
01:06:03His climey partner was the jealous one.
01:06:04Who was she?
01:06:06Who was she?
01:06:06Susan Bryant.
01:06:08Right again?
01:06:10No, I wouldn't climb with a relationship like that.
01:06:12You've got to trust the person you're up there with.
01:06:14I mean, they used to sleep together in the same tent.
01:06:18All of them.
01:06:19It was that sort of relationship.
01:06:21The rugby's shut on the body.
01:06:23The colours.
01:06:24The Kelvin Side School.
01:06:25That's where I've seen them before.
01:06:27Russell Henry.
01:06:33I'm afraid you gentlemen have left me behind.
01:06:38Will we catch this flight to Glasgow?
01:06:40If you go now.
01:06:42Ask Superintendent Rebecca to check the things on that list.
01:06:45Tell him not to pick up Susan Bryant just yet.
01:06:47We'll meet at Midlady Airport.
01:06:49Remember, it's Sunday.
01:06:50Oh, that's right.
01:06:51He'll be at Killamont Golf Club.
01:06:53Listen, ring the clubhouse.
01:06:55He'll be on about the third hole by now.
01:06:59Goodbye, sir.
01:07:00Goodbye, Sergeant.
01:07:01And goodbye to you.
01:07:03Keep an eye on the green shanks.
01:07:11Sir, if Susan Bryant drove up here to kill her ex-boyfriend,
01:07:18who drove away his car?
01:07:20She had an accomplice.
01:07:24Susie, Susie, one fine day
01:07:29Dressed her self and made her way
01:07:34Susie, Susie, waits no time
01:07:40Ever high, she did fly
01:07:45Are you just going to sit there?
01:07:48I don't.
01:07:50There are dozens of things to do.
01:07:52I've done them.
01:07:54I don't see why I should have to watch your bloody things for you.
01:08:02I helped you.
01:08:04We need an alibi
01:08:06in case they do identify him.
01:08:08After this, we're going out climbing.
01:08:11I'm not.
01:08:14We've been out climbing locally all weekend.
01:08:17I know we haven't, officer.
01:08:18I've been up north.
01:08:19Killed a guy in his tent.
01:08:25Don't you ever do that.
01:08:28Don't you ever do that again.
01:08:29I'll kill you.
01:08:30Then grow up.
01:08:31That's what you wanted to do, isn't it?
01:08:42I'm not going out.
01:08:44I've driven down all night.
01:08:47I left the car at his place.
01:08:48I walked back here.
01:08:49I'm tired.
01:08:50I want to sleep.
01:08:50Please don't touch me.
01:09:00Why not?
01:09:02Because I don't want you to.
01:09:04I don't know what you've got left now.
01:09:14I've got nothing left.
01:09:18There's a telephone message for Russell Henry at the school.
01:09:21The registrar took it.
01:09:23Woman's voice.
01:09:25But possibly Elizabeth.
01:09:27To say that she wasn't coming.
01:09:28That she'd changed her mind.
01:09:30I take it Susan Bryant met her at the airport.
01:09:32Took her somewhere and killed her.
01:09:34Clever.
01:09:36She didn't expect him to return to Achenor Cray to find her.
01:09:39She had to kill him before he found out.
01:09:42Susan Bryant must have known all their plans.
01:09:44The ad there.
01:09:45The Mr. Carnegie charade.
01:09:46Everything.
01:09:47Why, she did.
01:09:48If she was so insanely jealous, why did he tell her?
01:09:51It's called emotional sadism.
01:09:53It was that kind of relationship.
01:09:55Her massacre isn't on her part.
01:09:58The start of the three in her tent ended up with one in the Clyde.
01:10:17Remember we talked about the danger of climbing.
01:10:34Is that the attraction?
01:10:40Did you help her to kill Elizabeth as well as Russell?
01:10:43Why?
01:10:54Benny Glenn.
01:10:55I know where that is.
01:10:56Used to go there and farm the picnics.
01:10:58Yes, sir.
01:10:58This is one.
01:10:59This is our car.
01:11:17Think, think.
01:11:18Glenn's down this way.
01:11:19Suzie, Suzie wastes no time.
01:11:30Never, ever, she defies.
01:11:37People with good hair.
01:12:08I'm going to cross over here.
01:13:08Surprise others, surprise yourself.
01:13:18I've got enough surprises for one week.
01:13:21I'm going to cross over here.
01:13:51I'm going to cross over here.
01:14:21Oh, I'm praying on your mind.
01:14:28It's the only place that I'd be willing to die for.
01:14:39It's the only life I've ever seen.
01:14:48This town is so mean.
