00:03:59A strange one.
00:04:01She keeps to herself.
00:04:04The way she behaves, you'd think that the Moros were still the first family in town.
00:04:08That's Rosalie.
00:04:10She's got more sense than her sister.
00:04:12She married the first man who asked her.
00:04:14She married the first man who asked her, Leon Vichu.
00:04:17He's a nasty character.
00:04:19People stay clear of him.
00:04:21The youngest one is Colette.
00:04:24And there is a boy.
00:04:34And there is a boy, Commissioner.
00:04:36Yes.
00:04:37Poor kid.
00:04:37Oscar always wanted his son.
00:04:38He became a test, you know, he became a test, you know, and eventually adopted him.
00:04:41He treated that boy better than his own family.
00:04:45He was a difficult one to get along with, old man Maraud.
00:05:02Well, he was dead.
00:05:03Well, he was dead, so he didn't trust anyone.
00:05:05Well, he seemed to get along only with Janot.
00:05:08Not what you'd call a happy story.
00:05:12Just a couple of years ago, everybody envied old Oscar.
00:05:17Then his financial situation got out of hand.
00:05:20He began taking some pretty big risks.
00:05:22An oil company.
00:05:26Managed to lose it all.
00:05:27Do me a favor, Commissioner.
00:05:29Kindly ask them to meet me this afternoon.
00:05:42Hey, give me that your father was an idiot and everybody knows it.
00:05:58That's enough stupid talk.
00:06:02You know what Leon means.
00:06:04The old man spent all the money that belonged to us.
00:06:07I didn't even have a dowry.
00:06:08Less than all you didn't have.
00:06:09The father's had a mortgage on it, plus his debts.
00:06:14Your father lost money every time he opened his mouth.
00:06:16Then he takes in that fool.
00:06:18Please Leon.
00:06:21I've said what I had to say.
00:06:23But if there are any more debts, I'm not paying.
00:06:26Simone.
00:06:27Just get that through your head.
00:06:29I won't pay another cent for a lawyer or nobody else.
00:06:31The lawyer's outside.
00:06:37Being of sound mind and body and knowing that money
00:06:39destroys love and affection.
00:06:40I prefer to reveal the following only after my death and in my will.
00:06:43Can't you cut this short?
00:06:45When the refinery went out of business,
00:06:47I had by then already liquidated my holdings.
00:06:50I had the foresight to sell the stocks at their highest quotation.
00:06:53What do you mean?
00:06:55That we're rich.
00:06:56Don't look so stupid.
00:06:58Simone.
00:06:59And I deposited the cash at the Gré de Lyonnais.
00:07:01How much money did he deposit?
00:07:03With interest, it amounts to quite a good deal.
00:07:05I'd say a million new francs.
00:07:08A million new francs?
00:07:10A million?
00:07:12The deceased is put in one condition.
00:07:15The money cannot be divided and must remain absolutely untouched until Janot comes of age.
00:07:21What?
00:07:21My reason behind this is my desire to give the boy every protection and to assure him and myself
00:07:27that he will have a home until he reaches 21 years of age, at which time he will receive his
00:07:31share of my estate and then may be placed in a proper institution.
00:07:34I'll take that piece of paper to court.
00:07:35I'll contest the will.
00:07:36I'm not waiting any three years for my money.
00:07:38Do anything you like.
00:07:39It's a solid will.
00:07:40Until the three years are up, you'll just have to live on the interest.
00:07:42That's enough.
00:07:43That old miser's made us live like beggars.
00:07:45Golly.
00:07:46What good is the money to us?
00:07:48We're already fighting over it.
00:07:50I'll go to court.
00:07:53I'll break this will.
00:07:54I'll break Oscar Maro once and for all.
00:08:16I'll break this will.
00:08:29I'll break this will.
00:08:34On fire, everybody sing, everybody dance.
00:08:39I'm going to drink.
00:08:46Happy New Year.
00:08:59Happy New Year.
00:09:16Hey, Jules.
00:09:20Oh, I'm Natalie.
00:09:22How are things?
00:09:23You don't sound happy to see me.
00:09:25What brings you to a place like this?
00:09:27Nostalgia.
00:09:28And a simple desire to stick my nose into your affairs.
00:09:33Hi, Natalie.
00:09:34Can we join you?
00:09:34Go ahead.
00:09:35I was about to say that your little place here is doing okay.
00:09:39Yeah, well, it's like this only on weekends.
00:09:46Well, all the same, you're doing good.
00:09:51New suit, new shoes.
00:09:52Natalie, you'll get your check as usual.
00:09:54Don't sweat it, huh?
00:09:56Try to be a little more generous this time, will you, hon?
00:09:59They're raising the price of postage stamps.
00:10:02Your husband's a handsome man.
00:10:04He's yours.
00:10:05Why don't you take him away?
00:10:07Our attachment is only financial.
00:10:09Why don't you just divorce him once and for all?
00:10:12That would be too easy.
00:10:13He took the best years of my life.
00:10:16Now, if he wants his liberty, he'll have to pay.
00:10:19And pay dearly.
00:10:29A million francs.
00:10:32Not a bad little pile.
00:10:37And all I need is 50,000 to convince Natalie to give me a divorce.
00:10:41Yes, but the money isn't ours for another three years.
00:10:48Look, Simone.
00:10:51Without that 50,000, she'll never let me be free.
00:10:59I'm sick and tired of seeing you like this as if we were a couple of crooks.
00:11:02How do you think I must feel about it?
00:11:04I'm so in love with you.
00:11:06No, Jules, let me go.
00:11:09Later.
00:11:11Simone.
00:11:13Think of a way of getting your hands on that money.
00:11:16It's impossible and you know it.
00:11:18And all depends on Jeannot.
00:11:24He's the type who's always getting into accidents.
00:11:28Didn't you tell me he was a cripple?
00:11:31Don't be an idiot.
00:11:32I'd do anything if I thought it would make you happy.
00:11:36Leaving already?
00:11:38Yes.
00:11:38I've got to lower the crossing for the nine o'clock train.
00:11:40Promise me you won't try anything.
00:11:48Are you worried more about me?
00:11:50How about Jeannot?
00:11:52Stupid.

00:12:37Stupid.
00:12:38Stupid.
00:12:39Stupid.
00:12:40Natalie, what more do you want?
00:12:52I want to stay with you tonight.
00:12:54You already got a lot more than you deserve.
00:12:56Now get out.
00:12:57Have I?
00:12:58Yes.
00:12:59But I came for something else.
00:13:02I want money.
00:13:04Otherwise, you'll never get rid of me.
00:13:06You'll wish you'd never laid eyes on me.
00:13:10Well, in a few days, I'll have all the money you ask for.
00:13:13Maybe even more.
00:13:17I'll get your clothes on, or I'll throw you out in the street just the way you are.
00:13:25The boss is still in his private office.
00:13:27Must be a doubleheader.
00:13:40I'll get you back in the street.
00:13:43Joan, you watch things here.
00:13:45I've got to go out for a minute, OK?
00:13:46Go ahead.
00:13:47Oh
00:14:06Ah
00:14:08Ponce was Simon could I please see you for a minute Zierschnitz
00:14:13Beautiful girls come to see me for only one reason
00:14:16Well, come in come in come in
00:14:28Well, how much do you want? I want five thousand five thousand francs
00:14:33But I don't have all that you must do it Zierschnitz. I don't know anybody but you
00:14:39You're all alike
00:14:41All you can think about is having fun and when you get into trouble you come crying to us
00:14:46Old men I
00:14:48Get the picture
00:14:50Thank you anyway
00:14:58This inheritance has got you all jumping
00:15:01But I really need the money
00:15:04But tomorrow I've got to get to the bank. I've got to pay a lot of IOUs
00:15:08Otherwise, I'm ruined. That's all I can let you have and get this straight
00:15:13I'm not waiting any three years for you to pay back this dead level. Oh, don't worry
00:15:17I'll pay it a lot sooner
00:15:43Okay, so
00:15:55Handsome
00:15:57You
00:15:59Let's go.
00:16:29Let's go.
00:16:59Did I hurt you much?
00:17:00No, not really.
00:17:01The brace I wear protects me.
00:17:03I don't know what's gotten into me.
00:17:05It seems I lose my temper at the least little thing.
00:17:07I don't know why.
00:17:09I think you're angry with me.
00:17:11Because of the will.
00:17:13No, Jeannot.
00:17:14Oh, just don't look when you're not supposed to.
00:17:21I was looking because, because you're pretty.
00:17:24It doesn't matter.
00:17:26Go to bed now.
00:17:28At 2.41, I've got to lower the barrier.
00:17:31Until the new man comes, it's my job.
00:17:34About what the lawyer said today.
00:17:38I'll fix that.
00:17:39You just wait.
00:17:39You'll see.
00:17:40I'll fix that.
00:18:10Where are you going?
00:18:29I have a message from Jeannot.
00:18:31He told me to tell you he'd lower the barrier tonight.
00:18:33It's just as well it's chilly out.
00:18:36Go back to bed.
00:18:37It'll be hard to get to sleep again.
00:18:38I have a message from Jeannot.
00:18:47I have a message from Jeannot.
00:18:50Let's go.
00:19:20Let's go.
00:19:50I want to get out of here, so open this barrier.
00:20:12Thanks a bunch.
00:20:17You're definitely an Oscar.
00:20:22Let's go.
00:20:23Let's go.
00:20:27Let's go.
00:20:28Let's go.
00:20:32Let's go.
00:20:41Let's go.
00:20:50Keep your lens clicking.
00:20:51I want pictures of everything.
00:20:53Let's go.
00:20:54Let's go.
00:20:55Let's go.
00:20:56Let's go.
00:20:57Let's go.
00:20:58Let's go.
00:20:59Let's go.
00:21:03Andre, get rid of them.
00:21:04This isn't a sideshow.
00:21:05Go on.
00:21:06Okay.
00:21:07All right, everyone.
00:21:08Clear off.
00:21:09Go back home.
00:21:10Etienne.
00:21:11Did you know this, Janelle?
00:21:12Yes.
00:21:13The way everyone did.
00:21:14The poor kid was an invalid.
00:21:16Introduced me to the family.
00:21:17It's good to see you back in town, Gerard.
00:21:18At what time did you discover the body?
00:21:19At five o'clock.
00:21:20Rather early.
00:21:21I went out to lower the barrier and I saw.
00:21:22A beautiful sight.
00:21:23Janelle's body is scattered a hundred yards down the track.
00:21:25Oh, yes.
00:21:26You know, I think it's a good thing.
00:21:27You know, I'm not a good thing.
00:21:28I think it's a good thing.
00:21:29I'm not going to see you back in town, Gerard.
00:21:32Yes.
00:21:33The way everyone did.
00:21:34The poor kid was an invalid.
00:21:36Introduced me to the family.
00:21:37It's good to see you back in town, Gerard.
00:21:39At what time did you discover the body?
00:21:40At five o'clock.
00:21:41Rather early.
00:21:43I went out to lower the barrier and I saw.
00:21:45A beautiful sight.
00:21:46Janot's body scattered a hundred yards down the track.
00:21:49Let's not be so...
00:21:49Simone, this is Inspector Reveal.
00:21:51Why'd they bother to send an inspector from headquarters here?
00:21:55To find out if you were all in on the killing, of course.
00:21:58Or if it was done by just one of you.
00:22:01Do you mean to say Janot was murdered?
00:22:03It's obvious.
00:22:05The only obstacle to cutting up the cake was Janot.
00:22:08So?
00:22:12The police always suspect the worst.
00:22:14His death was an accident.
00:22:16No, it wasn't.
00:22:18What do you mean?
00:22:19Just this.
00:22:21Janot and Oscar were very good friends.
00:22:23The old man's death depressed the poor kid.
00:22:25He committed suicide. Does that follow?
00:22:28In any case, that's our theory.
00:22:30It's only a supposition.
00:22:32Where were you at 2.45?
00:22:34I was in bed. Janot went out alone.
00:22:37We were both in bed at the time.
00:22:39All right.
00:22:41Let's stop it for now, Etienne.
00:22:43If you don't mind, I'm not going back in town.
00:22:45I've got some things to do.
00:22:47Are you positive it was murder, Inspector?
00:23:12During an investigation, no one was ever positive.
00:23:15Only Sherlock Holmes had all the evidence.
00:23:18And then the butler was always the guilty party.
00:23:21And if the butler happened to get murdered?
00:23:23A clear case of suicide at the end.
00:23:25I thought you were always serious.
00:23:29Don't rely on appearances.
00:23:30Me, I'm a specialist in what's been discarded.
00:23:34The fact that I'm here means that headquarters thinks that death was accidental.
00:23:38So you can relax.
00:23:40Hey, Simone!
00:23:40Are you all crazy?
00:23:44You want me to get killed or what?
00:23:45Nobody bothered to put down the gate and I almost lost my truck.
00:23:49And last night I just about had to wake up the dead before anybody bothered to put it up again.
00:23:53What time was that?
00:23:54Why the hell are you butting in here?
00:23:56Oh, Lee, he's a police inspector.
00:23:57Oh, well, it was about 2.45, Inspector.
00:24:02The train had gone by and the barrier was still down.
00:24:05You say the barrier was down last night.
00:24:09Did you see who raised it?
00:24:11No, no, it was dark.
00:24:13I couldn't see a blessed thing.
00:24:14But I chewed him out.
00:24:17I don't know anything, Inspector.
00:24:18I just drive my truck and keep my nose clean.
00:24:20What is it, you're out?
00:24:21Looks like it wasn't an accident.
00:24:26To know he wasn't alone.
00:24:27I'll repeat what I said.
00:24:28We were both in the house.
00:24:30You have another sister?
00:24:32Yes, Rosalie.
00:24:33Her husband has a place in town.
00:24:34She's the married one.
00:24:35Who's her husband?
00:24:37Leon Michaud, the metal worker.
00:24:39He's a beaut, that one.
00:24:42He's got more debts piled up than he's got hair on his head.
00:24:45Leon.
00:24:48Andre, come here.
00:24:51Leon, they found out that someone was with Cheneaux.
00:25:06They're on their way to your house.
00:25:10Collette, you go with them.
00:25:12I don't feel very well.
00:25:20Who was that on the phone?
00:25:22Headaches.
00:25:22I'm not going into town.
00:25:24And the bank.
00:25:25You go to the bank.
00:25:26The police will be here soon.
00:25:27My God, what have we done?
00:25:28Don't you worry.
00:25:29It's about Cheneaux.
00:25:30The police get wild ideas into their heads.
00:25:32I have to take care of something or I'm in a mess.
00:25:34What do the police want with us?
00:25:35Here's a check and take care of the IOUs.
00:25:37When the police arrive, what should I tell them?
00:25:39Well, don't open the door.
00:25:39Maybe they'll go away.
00:25:40And you better close the work shed, too.
00:25:42Well, as I said, there was a mission tonight.
00:25:45I love you.
00:25:46Good morning, come here.
00:25:51I don't do.
00:25:51Okay, come here.
00:25:52Look at she.
00:25:53All right.
00:25:54I don't see her.
00:25:54You better?
00:26:25Looks as though no one's home.
00:26:55Don't bother.
00:26:56Looks like nobody's here.
00:26:58I don't know where he could be, Inspector.
00:27:02Doesn't matter.
00:27:04Colette, when your brother-in-law needs money, where does he go to get it?
00:27:10I don't know where he could be, Inspector.
00:27:13Doesn't matter.
00:27:15Colette, when your brother-in-law needs money, where does he go to get it?
00:27:40Leon!
00:27:41Leon!
00:27:42Leon!
00:27:58Leon!
00:27:59Leon!
00:28:00Leon!
00:28:01Leon!
00:28:02Leon!
00:28:09Leon!
00:28:10Leon?
00:28:11Leon!
00:28:12Leon!
00:28:15Leon!
00:28:16Let's go.
00:28:46Let's go.
00:29:16Let's go.
00:29:17Let's go.
00:29:18Let's go.

00:29:23Let's go.
00:29:24Let's go.
00:29:25Let's go.
00:29:26Let's go.
00:29:27Let's go.
00:29:28Let's go.

00:29:30Let's go.
00:29:31Let's go.
00:29:32Let's go.
00:29:33Let's go.
00:29:34Let's go.
00:29:35Let's go.
00:29:36Let's go.
00:29:37Let's go.
00:29:38Let's go.
00:29:39Let's go.
00:29:40Let's go.
00:29:41Let's go.
00:29:42Let's go.
00:29:43Let's go.
00:29:44Let's go.
00:29:45Let's go.
00:29:46Let's go.
00:29:47Let's go.
00:29:48Let's go.
00:29:49Let's go.
00:29:50Let's go.
00:29:51Let's go.
00:29:52Let's go.
00:29:53Let's go.
00:29:54Let's go.
00:29:55Let's go.
00:29:56Let's go.
00:29:57Let's go.
00:29:58Let's go.
00:29:59Let's go.
00:30:00Let's go, Alice.
00:30:01Yes, sir.
00:30:02Let's go.
00:30:03problem is.
00:30:04That's merely hearsay on your part.
00:30:05Okay.
00:30:06When was he here last?
00:30:07Hmm.
00:30:08I haven't seen him for a long time.
00:30:09He wasn't the one who came yesterday.
00:30:12Who was it, Rosalie?
00:30:13It was Simone.
00:30:14She came here yesterday.
00:30:15Simone said she wasn't out of her house.
00:30:18It's true Inspector.
00:30:19She stayed in her room.
00:30:20I see.
00:30:21Mm-hmm. Yes, right color. I'll owe you for it Thanks
00:30:51She isn't in
00:30:56Like she wasn't in last night. You don't understand young people inspector. She was out in the town last night
00:31:03Did she tell you that? Her hair was all full of confetti. She'd been to a party
00:31:08Confetti? Yeah, what do you think? Everybody's a modern town. We're up to date here. We already have two nightclubs
00:31:14I swear my sister never goes to them. Oh, of course not
00:31:21It's not very smart to come here during the day. Somebody might well have seen you. I don't care. I wanted to see you
00:31:28Because you were lonely or because you were afraid
00:31:34She knows death was partly my fault
00:31:37Jules by the time I got there it was too late
00:31:42I realized his reason for going out and I ran after him but what did you see?
00:31:48The train had already gone through
00:31:51Then that horn and that man in the truck
00:31:57It was also sickening I
00:32:01Raised the barrier
00:32:03Does anybody know it was you the inspector knows someone was out there he suspects me
00:32:11Suppose the police accused me of murdering Janelle, but I know it was suicide
00:32:16Please don't have to you
00:32:17Please don't have to you just a couple of weeks and we'll be enjoying your inheritance. That's all you think about isn't it?
00:32:23I
00:32:28I
00:32:30I
00:33:02Hello.
00:33:06I'm sorry if I made you wait.
00:33:09It's all in the bag.
00:33:11Simone didn't see anything at all last night.
00:33:15As for this morning's work, I was lucky.
00:33:19Now there are only two of us to split that inheritance.
00:33:32Who runs this place?
00:33:48Ask him.
00:33:50We're closed.
00:33:51Has Simone Moreau been here?
00:33:54Who?
00:33:56She was wearing this confetti that you had last night.
00:34:00Sorry, I don't know her.
00:34:04Where's the boss?
00:34:05He's in there.
00:34:07But I wouldn't disturb him right now.
00:34:09Oh.
00:34:10Is he with the Dane?
00:34:11You know her?
00:34:12I might, yeah.
00:34:14Monsieur Didier has so many girls, he can supply Playboy calendars for ten years.
00:34:19Let's go see him.
00:34:20I said he's busy now.
00:34:26Hand over your liquor license.
00:34:28Everything's in order.
00:34:30That's what they all say.
00:34:31But I'll find something you can bet on it.
00:34:34Come on.
00:34:35I get it.
00:34:36Let's go.
00:34:36It's this way.
00:34:43Monsieur Didier.
00:34:43Mr. Didier.
00:34:53Jules.
00:34:55Look out.
00:34:56Stand back.
00:35:13How long had you two been lovers?
00:35:18Two years.
00:35:22Did you know this about your sister?
00:35:24No.
00:35:26Did you always meet him secretly?
00:35:29Yes.
00:35:36Leon, did you know Jules?
00:35:37I sight.
00:35:38Why did you kill him?
00:35:40You know I didn't.
00:35:41Leon.
00:35:42Where about did you go today?
00:35:44No place.
00:35:45And Moseley?
00:35:46She went into the city.
00:35:50Simone.
00:35:52Have you changed your mind about Janot committing suicide?
00:35:56I suppose so.
00:35:58Then you knew somebody was out there with him.
00:36:00Yes, yes, we knew.
00:36:02How did you know?
00:36:04I called Leon.
00:36:05I thought he had the right to know.
00:36:07So.
00:36:08The Moreau family had everything all figured out.
00:36:12I get it.
00:36:13You're trying to blame me for this.
00:36:14You want to lock me up.
00:36:14That's what you want.
00:36:16You're in bad trouble, Leon.
00:36:18Huh?
00:36:21Look here.
00:36:22Your record reads like a book.
00:36:25Fighting.
00:36:26Resisting arrest.
00:36:28And deep in debt.
00:36:29You wanted that money.
00:36:30And the death of Janot was the only way to get it.
00:36:33Not the death of Jules, though.
00:36:34But both of you.
00:36:36Both of you were anxious to eliminate Janot.
00:36:39You especially, Simone.
00:36:42So you could have the money to pay off Jules' wife to get a divorce.
00:36:45But Jules had too many women to get tied up another time.
00:36:51And so the jealous mistress stuffed his head into a plastic bag.
00:36:55Can you prove any of this, Inspector?
00:36:57I know you went to his apartment.
00:37:03And the way the murders were committed was so ingenious.
00:37:05So typically feminine, I'd say.
00:37:07It doesn't take much strength to push a crippled kid.
00:37:10Or to crack a man over the skull and smother him to death.
00:37:13If you can prove it.
00:37:15Don't worry.
00:37:16We'll find out.
00:37:19In the meantime, I hope you'll accept our hospitality.
00:37:28Want me to stay, too?
00:37:29No, you're simply a fool.
00:37:32You could have told me about the telephone call immediately.
00:37:37I'm holding you, though, just overnight.
00:37:40I'll find someone to take you home.
00:37:42Andre.
00:37:43Take the mademoiselle home.
00:37:49And put a man on her.
00:37:51I don't want to find her killed.
00:37:56You had Leon in a trap.
00:37:58I just stopped questioning him.
00:38:00I suddenly got an idea.
00:38:02Where's the report on old man Oscar?
00:38:05Here.
00:38:05That's what I thought.
00:38:12This report you've made out is ridiculous.
00:38:15You complete the inquest and no autopsy.
00:38:18You mean you think that Oscar was murdered?
00:38:20Why, of course.
00:38:23Change the switch.
00:38:25The inheritance is on its way.
00:38:27You make a good pessimist, you're right.
00:38:30And you're too optimistic sometimes.
00:38:32I'm beginning to wonder if you're as objective as you should be about this case.
00:38:35I'm trying to be objective.
00:38:37It isn't easy.
00:38:37Contact the coroner and get things ready.
00:38:42We're digging up Oscar's body.
00:38:45I want an autopsy.
00:38:46I'd also like to know why you failed to have one performed.
00:38:49But you can't be serious.
00:38:51You're endangering my position.
00:38:53I have the authority.
00:38:54I will see you at the cemetery at dawn.
00:38:58Remember, I'm punctual.
00:39:00I'm punctual.
00:39:30Oscar always had the worst luck.
00:39:39To wait his turn in cold storage till the day before yesterday has two nights peace and quiet.
00:39:44And we have to wake him up again.
00:39:46And me in bad health, doctor says.
00:39:48I need three or four weeks at home.
00:39:51I just got over a case of the measles.
00:39:53Think of that.
00:39:54Measles.
00:39:54And at my age, the doctors all said it was very unusual.
00:40:00And they all said it was just amazing.
00:40:02I managed to recover so fast.
00:40:05Not that I'm a well man yet.
00:40:07I need four or five weeks at home.
00:40:08Come on, Hubert.
00:40:10Have a heart, Commissioner.
00:40:12My friends here can't hear.
00:40:13Once in a while, a man needs someone to talk to.
00:40:16Oh, well, out you come, my friend.
00:40:34Well, this has been sealed badly.
00:40:38Open it.
00:40:39Poor job.
00:40:40Poor job.
00:40:41I wouldn't say this time that the murderer was feminine.
00:40:54Leon.
00:40:57Leon!
00:40:57You two after them.
00:41:02They'll get him.
00:41:22There was a time when you could have handled him, Gerard.
00:41:26It took me by surprise.
00:41:28Sure, sorry.
00:41:29You're not hurt, are you?
00:41:31No.
00:41:32If nothing else, at least we know who the murderer is.
00:41:35I'm not so sure.
00:41:37Well, no, he told Rosalie he'd gone into the city.
00:41:40Instead, he murdered her and put her in Oscar's coffin.
00:41:42It doesn't make sense to hide one body and saddle yourself with another.
00:41:48Right.
00:41:49Where the devil could he have buried Oscar?
00:41:50Look, all that fresh earth there.
00:41:57Somebody's hurt himself quite a piece.
00:42:01Gerard, I know what you want to do.
00:42:05You intend to desecrate all of those graves.
00:42:07You can't do that.
00:42:08If you want everybody screaming for your head on the plate, then go ahead and chat it.
00:42:12You worry about Leon.
00:42:15And remember, I want him alive.
00:42:18I want him alive.
00:42:48I want him alive.
00:42:49I want him alive.
00:42:50I want him alive.
00:42:51I want him alive.
00:42:52I want him alive.
00:42:53I want him alive.
00:42:54I want him alive.
00:42:55I want him alive.
00:42:56I want him alive.
00:42:57I want him alive.
00:42:58I want him alive.
00:42:59I want him alive.
00:43:00I want him alive.
00:43:01I want him alive.
00:43:02I want him alive.
00:43:03I want him alive.
00:43:04I want him alive.
00:43:05I want him alive.
00:43:06I want him alive.
00:43:07I want him alive.
00:43:08I want him alive.
00:43:09I want him alive.
00:43:10I want him alive.
00:43:11I want him alive.
00:43:12I want him alive.
00:43:13I want him alive.
00:43:14I want him alive.
00:43:45Give me that. We've got a lot of ground to cover.
00:43:53You go that way. You come with me.
00:43:54Come on.
00:44:03Everything all right?
00:44:04Yes, Inspector.
00:44:05Have you seen a commissioner?
00:44:07He was walking towards the river.
00:44:08How many men did he have with him?
00:44:10He was alone.
00:44:10And don't forget, if you see Pichu, shoot to kill.
00:44:17Right, Inspector.
00:44:40I don't know.
00:44:48Good morning, Inspector.
00:45:16Good morning.
00:45:16Good morning.
00:45:18Everybody in position?
00:45:19Yes, sir.
00:45:20They sent reinforcements from headquarters.
00:45:21Keep your eyes open.
00:45:22He's dangerous.
00:45:46Good morning.
00:45:47Good morning.
00:45:48Good morning.
00:45:49Good morning.
00:45:50Good morning, Inspector.
00:45:51Oh
00:46:19Anyone here
00:46:21Don't worry about it. There's a policeman with me. Somebody's around all the time
00:46:38No, I'm not afraid of Leon. What about you? Have they made things difficult for you?
00:46:45So don't worry
00:46:47Yes
00:46:48No, it'll be soon
00:46:51Everything will work out just fine
00:46:54So long
00:46:55Call me back
00:46:59Thanks
00:47:01As you can see we haven't the most comfortable hotel in the country
00:47:04When may I leave here?
00:47:06When I catch the killer
00:47:08Aren't you convinced it's Leon?
00:47:11A woman as beautiful as you Simone should have other things on her mind
00:47:15A compliment is the last thing I expected from you
00:47:18To tell a beautiful woman she's beautiful isn't a compliment. It's simply a statement
00:47:23Claude
00:47:26I hope you won't hold it against me if I have to keep you a little while
00:47:30At least until I can get one or two things cleared up
00:47:34Yes inspector
00:47:35Take her back and see that she's comfortable
00:47:38Yes, sir
00:47:45You're right
00:47:48Look somebody's check
00:47:50It turned up in Rosalie's things
00:47:53It's for Leon
00:47:55This is here
00:47:56Bring him in
00:47:57Yes, sir
00:48:00Come in
00:48:02I
00:48:03Sit down
00:48:04Inspector
00:48:06Thank you
00:48:08Recognize this?
00:48:09Yes, I do
00:48:10That's your signature?
00:48:11Yes, it is
00:48:12Yes, it is
00:48:13Yes, it's mine
00:48:14He gave the check to Leon the night Jeannot was murdered
00:48:15But
00:48:16Inspector, he promised he'd pay it back at once
00:48:18He made terrible threats, too
00:48:21I haven't been well
00:48:22I was frightened
00:48:24He said I'd die if I talked
00:48:26He didn't want anybody to know about it
00:48:28Well then
00:48:29We pick up Leon and we've got the murderer
00:48:31Don't be in such a hurry
00:48:33Really, Gerard
00:48:35If Leon had committed the murder in a stadium
00:48:37In front of 50 million people
00:48:39You
00:48:40You still wouldn't be convinced
00:48:42You know that
00:49:09You wereostat
00:49:30Shut up, shut up
00:49:33Rob!
00:49:34Geryon!
00:49:36Help
00:49:37Help
00:49:38guitar solo
00:50:08guitar solo
00:50:15He's out of sight
00:50:18It was Leon Bishu. He tried to murder me. He had a crazy look in his eyes.
00:50:21What was the missing boat like?
00:50:23It's my husband's. I barely had time to escape.
00:50:25Was it a rowboat?
00:50:26Yes.
00:50:27This one. Why didn't they take the motorboat?
00:50:29The lake is shallower over there.
00:50:31He'll go that way to the station probably.
00:50:33Who's with Colette?
00:50:34Andre.
00:50:36You take the boat and follow Leon.
00:50:37You come with me. Come on.
00:50:39We'll meet you at the station.
00:50:40We'll meet you at the station.
00:51:08We'll meet you at the station.
00:51:10We'll meet you at the station.
00:51:11We'll meet you at the station.
00:51:12We'll meet you at the station.
00:51:13We'll meet you at the station.
00:51:14We'll meet you at the station.
00:51:15We'll meet you at the station.
00:51:16We'll meet you at the station.
00:51:17We'll meet you at the station.
00:51:18We'll meet you at the station.
00:51:19We'll meet you at the station.
00:51:20We'll meet you at the station.
00:51:21We'll meet you at the station.
00:51:22We'll meet you at the station.
00:51:23We'll meet you at the station.
00:51:24We'll meet you at the station.
00:51:25We'll meet you at the station.
00:51:26This is where the shallows begin.
00:51:28Which is the best way?
00:51:30That way, Commissioner.
00:52:26It's pretty deep here.
00:52:56There's the rowboat, Commissioner.
00:53:01Can't have gotten far.
00:53:03The river is the only possible way of escaping from here.
00:53:10Maybe.
00:53:11I say we're wasting time here.
00:53:13If you're asking me where he is, I'd say he's already miles away.
00:53:19I'd say he's already miles away.
00:53:26Here you are, Colette.
00:53:27Here you are, Colette.
00:53:28Here you are, Colette.
00:53:29Thanks a lot.
00:53:30What'll happen if the inspector finds out I've got you running errands?
00:53:31I'm glad to do it.
00:53:32Anyhow, let me put this away.
00:53:33Here you are, Colette.
00:53:34Here you are, Colette.
00:53:35Thanks a lot.
00:53:36What'll happen if the inspector finds out I've got you running errands?
00:53:37I'm glad to do it.
00:53:38Anyhow, let me put this away.
00:53:39Andre, you'd make a good husband.
00:53:40I'll get married when I'm rich and 40.
00:53:41Don't you have a girlfriend?
00:53:42No.
00:53:43It's time you found one.
00:53:44It's time to go to the next little girl.
00:53:45Dang it.
00:53:47Oh, boy.
00:53:49I don't want to be here.
00:53:51Oh, you're there.
00:53:53She's as a king.
00:53:54Oh, I'm a queen.
00:53:55I'm a queen.
00:53:56But remember, I kind of go to the next girl.
00:53:57Oh, I'm going to be a little girl.
00:53:58Oh, my god.
00:53:59Oh, my god.
00:54:00Oh, my god?
00:54:01I'm, BONNIE!
00:54:02Oh, my god.
00:54:02Oh, my god.
00:54:03Oh, my god.
00:54:04Oh, my god.
00:54:05Let me go.
00:54:06Oh, my god.
00:54:07Oh, my god.
00:54:08Oh, my god.
00:54:09Oh.
00:54:10Oh, my god.
00:54:11They're hunting me like an animal.
00:54:23Easy, easy.
00:54:26I don't want to hurt you, believe me.
00:54:28You killed Rosalie.
00:54:31You believe that I did it?
00:54:32Why are you running from the police?
00:54:35Because I'm afraid.
00:54:37They're looking for a scapegoat.
00:54:39I'm the one they want.
00:54:40You've got to surrender.
00:54:41I'm not going to.
00:54:42They'd never believe.
00:54:44There's too much against me.
00:54:46Even if they brought the case to trial.
00:54:47Hey, Andre, where's Colette?
00:54:49You've got to help me, Colette.
00:54:51I know who the killer is.
00:54:53Hide upstairs.
00:54:53I'll help you.
00:54:56You won't get this far.
00:54:58Can I offer you anything, Inspector?
00:55:01Everything seems to be all right.
00:55:02I have reason to believe that Leon will come here.
00:55:06Could be dangerous.
00:55:09Andre.
00:55:09I've got to go away.
00:55:11Inspector.
00:55:13Yes?
00:55:17Nothing.
00:55:17I just wanted to go and wash my hands.
00:55:22Have the men cover the station.
00:55:39Come here.
00:55:40Léon?
00:55:43Léon.
00:55:47Léon?
00:55:47Léon?
00:55:48Léon?
00:56:19Here, that's the shield.
00:56:39Right.
00:56:49Here, that's the shield.
00:57:19Here, that's the shield.
00:57:49Here, that's the shield.
00:58:19Here, that's the shield.
00:58:21Here, that's the shield.
00:58:23Here, that's the shield.
00:58:25Come in, where are you?
00:58:37It's locked.
00:58:50Call it.
00:58:55Call it.
00:59:09He must be an animal.
00:59:13This time, he's trapped.
00:59:16I want every door in this house guarded.
00:59:18I've seen to it.
00:59:19Where did you come from?
00:59:22I just got here a minute ago.
00:59:24Look.
00:59:33Still nothing?
00:59:34Not a thing.
00:59:35We have orders to shoot if he resists.
00:59:37The last time I shot at anybody was in Normandy.
00:59:40What branch were you in?
00:59:41Anti-aircraft.
00:59:42Were you in command?
00:59:44Are you kidding?
00:59:45What are you seeing?
00:59:46What's the same?
00:59:47What's the same?
00:59:48I just didn't go to the operation.
00:59:52When the planes flew over, my orders came from the Sergeant.
00:59:53There he is!
00:59:54On the roof!
00:59:56Hey, Monsieur!
00:59:57Don't move!
00:59:58Inspector!
00:59:59Commissioner!
01:00:00He's on the roof!
01:00:01He's on the road
01:00:13You haven't got a cat lay on any and shut up put your guns away
01:00:18Hey, oh, don't move
01:00:22You can't get away now. We're coming up to get you
01:00:31That finishes it well the inquiries close
01:01:01You can't get away now
01:01:03Oh
01:01:31The rest is in stock
01:01:35This is the amount your father deposited
01:01:37Would you please sign here
01:01:39Everything's in order
01:01:47Thanks. Is that all right?
01:01:49Fine. It's the least I could do for old Oscar
01:01:51He had blind faith in me
01:01:53Would you like us to transfer the amount from our bank to EpiBay?
01:01:57That won't be necessary
01:01:59I'll only be in EpiBay the shortest time possible
01:02:03As you wish
01:02:05It's not a good idea taking it like this
01:02:07Believe me, I can defend myself all right
01:02:09And besides, the Moreau case has just passed history by now, thanks to you
01:02:13I didn't do anything. It solved itself
01:02:15Now, Inspector
01:02:17You had very good press on the way you handled the case
01:02:19I don't see why you're not satisfied
01:02:21Why aren't you convinced?
01:02:25Why did he kill Rosalie?
01:02:27And why did he return to kill Colette
01:02:29When he knew the house would be full of policemen
01:02:31I could go on for an hour with unanswered questions
01:02:33Do you think everything has a logical answer?
01:02:37The reality we live
01:02:39Isn't arranged like a story
01:02:41Do you know the city well?
01:02:43Quite well. My family used to come here
01:02:45Why don't you stay here?
01:02:47I don't believe it's a good idea
01:02:49It's better if I go somewhere new
01:02:51I don't want to live anywhere near here
01:02:53I don't know where I'll go
01:02:55But somewhere I can start all over again
01:02:59And try and forget
01:03:01It's difficult
01:03:03I won't pay for a girl like you
01:03:05Rich you mean?
01:03:07No, because you're young
01:03:09Free and beautiful
01:03:11Compliments again
01:03:13Because you're young
01:03:15Free and beautiful
01:03:17Compliments again
01:03:19The series
01:03:21I brought the past
01:03:23Oh my gosh
01:03:25You saved me
01:03:27Do you know?
01:03:33Oh my God
01:03:36Oh my God
01:03:39Oh my God
01:03:41Oh my God
01:03:43Oh my God
01:03:45Oh ma
01:03:48Oh my God
01:03:49There, that's a train.
01:04:14No, you don't have to wait.
01:04:16I don't like drawn-out goodbyes.
01:04:17Well, goodbye soon.
01:04:21Thank you, Inspector.
01:04:47Thank you, Inspector.
01:04:51That's how you do it.
01:04:52Yes, sir.
01:04:57Mr. Lodin.
01:05:25Good evening, Simone.
01:05:28Why do you happen to be taking this train?
01:05:30An urgent call.
01:05:32We're like doctors.
01:05:40I'm happy that we met, Simone.
01:05:42Are you going to Epi Bay?
01:05:44I'll get off before...
01:05:49Where are you going to sleep tonight?
01:05:52I'm going back home. Why?
01:05:55I envy you.
01:05:57You have courage.
01:05:59Who said I wasn't afraid?
01:06:25There you go.
01:06:27There you go.
01:06:28No?
01:06:29There you go.
01:06:30I was going to be right there.
01:06:31You're right.
01:07:33Don't be afraid, Simone. I'm not a ghost.
01:07:37Is that possible?
01:07:41That night.
01:07:42That wasn't my body under the train, Simone.
01:07:44That was Oscar's body with my shirt and overalls to make you think it was me.
01:07:48And you did. You thought it was me.
01:07:50Meanwhile, I was just hiding away.
01:07:52Pretty clever, huh?
01:07:53But tell me, why did you do it?
01:07:56Money? I wanted this money.
01:07:59And there was only one lady get it.
01:08:01God, how I wanted it.
01:08:02And making it appear I was dead was the only means to get the money and be happy.
01:08:06You murdered all the others.
01:08:08I had to. It'd be a shame to split it up.
01:08:12Only I picked you to share it with.
01:08:14You're pretty, and besides, I planned it so that one person would be left to collect.
01:08:18I didn't kill Leon because you all suspected that he was the one who must be the real murderer.
01:08:22But then he died anyway, and that made getting the money much simpler.
01:08:24It's been really funny, especially getting rid of your boyfriend.
01:08:27What did he have to do with it?
01:08:30He was in on it. He thought of the train accident.
01:08:32We weren't together, but the stupid idiot.
01:08:34He made a mistake.
01:08:35He tried blackmail, but he didn't get away with it.
01:08:39They'll get you.
01:08:40You just wait and see.
01:08:41The police believe the case is completely closed.
01:08:44Come back here!
01:08:49Come back here!
01:08:57You better do what I tell you!
01:09:16I'm not afraid!
01:09:18I brought the money tonight because I was certain somebody else had something to do with it.
01:09:22I wanted to prove my suspicion that Leon was innocent.
01:09:24Now that you've satisfied your curiosity, you'll pay.
01:09:27I don't care what you do anymore.
01:09:28I'm better off dead like the others.
01:09:33Now, don't try answering the telephone.
01:09:36Or say, help me, I'll cut your throat.
01:09:38They know that I'm here.
01:09:39They'll think something's happened to...
01:09:41Then you better answer, but listen.
01:09:42Make it short and say you're going out.
01:09:46And remember, I'm right here if you try anything.
01:09:53Bonsoir.
01:09:53I just wanted to tell you that he was here with a cemetery bell.
01:09:57I'll have him send it.
01:09:58Have him send it.
01:09:59That'll be fine.
01:09:59Ah.
01:10:00I also wanted to say that your father's substitute will arrive tomorrow.
01:10:04No, I'm leaving.
01:10:04I won't be here.
01:10:06Hey, Jen!
01:10:06Listen, John, I was here at the killer.
01:10:08Hey, Jen!
01:10:16What was that?
01:10:18I thought I heard something.
01:10:20No, it went deep.
01:10:21I'll call again later.
01:10:22Ah, the police are so well organized.
01:10:24If only I could be like that.
01:10:26A poor man like me.
01:10:28I'll see that you get your money.
01:10:31What's this?
01:10:33Marot, Oscar.
01:10:34May he rest in peace.
01:10:36Because nobody but God knows where he's buried.
01:10:40Here's the whole story.
01:10:42He suffered from auto...
01:10:45Autosclerosis.
01:10:46Here's your money, Hubert.
01:10:47Ah, and you know, suffered scoliosis.
01:10:50He had a metal brace wrapped around his body.
01:10:53And what a brace.
01:10:55All these diseases with their complicated names,
01:10:57Latin names, Greek names.
01:11:00Only my measles.
01:11:01They named them measles, and measles is all.
01:11:03That's Big Ben.
01:11:09They've calculated the hands of the clock travel 100,000 miles a year.
01:11:14Rome.
01:11:15Castel Santangelo.
01:11:17God, the bloodshed those dungeons have seen.
01:11:19Then you'll go to Spain.
01:11:22New York.
01:11:23You'll see all those American musical shows.
01:11:27Then more exotic places.
01:11:29You'll travel alone and send postcards to your friends.
01:11:34Now get busy and write messages.
01:11:37Put addresses on them, but without any dates.
01:11:39I'll take care of that.
01:11:41I'll see that the postcards get mailed one at a time from different countries.
01:11:44Everyone will think it's you that's writing.
01:11:46Instead, they'll be coming from you.
01:11:47A pretty imposing little plan.
01:11:50I wish I could take the credit.
01:11:53Only it wasn't my idea.
01:11:54It was somebody else's.
01:11:55Since when was there somebody else?
01:11:57Since your father told me about having all that money.
01:12:00And more or less accidentally one morning a couple of weeks ago,
01:12:02he fell down and broke his hearing aid.
01:12:05He didn't hear the switch open.
01:12:06It seemed so accidental.
01:12:08You monster.
01:12:10So simple, really.
01:12:12You'd better start writing those postcards.
01:12:15Don't be stubborn, Simone,
01:12:17you'll find this in your neck.
01:12:32Stop!
01:12:34Stop!
01:12:37Open the door!
01:12:37Open it!
01:12:38I'm glad he'll be here soon.
01:12:40He'll catch you!
01:12:41You can't get away!
01:12:42Come on!
01:13:03You can't get away!
01:13:05Don't be angry!
01:13:06Don't be angry!
01:13:07Don't be angry!
01:13:08You can't get away!
01:13:09God!
01:13:10The killers are Janone again
01:13:26I'll take care of
01:13:30Go for help
01:13:34Etienne I have you covered
01:13:40You know the commissioners found out about you. I'll get around behind him. Yeah have a gun
01:13:50No, but I can get one
01:13:59Yes, yes, it's me I
01:14:03Stoodle for years waiting for just the right opportunity
01:14:07One day Janone came in and told me about the will. I knew the kid. Well, he'd been in and out of every institution in the country
01:14:15Yeah, for being a bloody sadist
01:14:19Once once in an M's hatchery
01:14:22Do you know really outdid himself?
01:14:25He cut the heads off all the chickens just for the fun of it. Oh
01:14:29It was easy to work out
01:14:31He did the killing I did the investigating
01:14:34You know what I mean?
01:14:36Throw down that pistol, Gerard
01:14:46Stop right there
01:14:50Inspector
01:14:52My compliments at the end
01:14:54It's the first time you've arrived at the right moment
01:14:57You've been very lucky so far. Haven't you I?
01:15:01Got suspicious when I called Simone then you would have reminded me that you know always wore a metal brace
01:15:06But there was no trace of it on the tracks after the accident. All right, where's you know?
01:15:10I'm up here
01:15:27I'm up here today, no
01:15:30I'm up here
01:15:31Oh

01:16:32I can make you happy.
01:16:36No, no, Simon.
01:16:39Aim that pistol at him, and we can have a life together.
01:16:44A whole life, Simon.
01:16:48That was your last chance.
01:17:02Simon, you hear?
01:17:04Your last chance.
01:17:10Don't you understand?
01:17:12You're going, you're going to be alone.
01:17:15All your life.
01:17:45Don't you understand?
01:17:46Well, don't you understand?
01:17:48You're going, you're going to be alone.
01:17:49That was your last chance.
01:17:50Don't you imagine?
01:17:51You were going, you're going, you're going.
01:17:55I think you're going to be alone.
