00:00Three coppers, all the way from Toronto, coming here just to see that I receive just as wealth.
00:08I must be an important man.
00:10This means you're a criminal.
00:11An important criminal.
00:13You were arrested for forging checks, poorly I might add.
00:16It hardly makes you Moriarty.
00:18And you're a long way off from Sherlock Holmes.
00:20Didn't think I'd catch that reference now, did you?
00:23For your information, I'm a learned man, when hardly deserving this kind of treatment.
00:28If you wish to inflate your importance, be my guest.
00:33Oh, and another question.
00:34All right, but it's your last one.
00:36When will we be eating?
00:37I was enjoying a succulent meal when you arrested me.
00:53Anything for me?
00:55Are you sure?
00:56Are you waiting for something?
00:58My third volume of Thus Spoke Zarathustra, in its original German...
01:04Nietzsche.
01:06Very good.
01:07Well, I'm not an uncultured man, Watts.
01:09And what have you there?
01:11It's nothing.
01:14George.
01:19Newfoundland.
01:19Will he be getting us some food?
01:29That's what he said.
01:31Do you think he heard me when I said my constitution can't handle bread?
01:35You did remind him of that multiple times.
01:37Yeah, but he didn't acknowledge that.
01:39So maybe, maybe I should go in and check.
01:41You should stay exactly where you are.
01:43Say, did you say you're going back to Toronto?
01:51Yes.
01:52Could I catch a lift?
01:53No.
01:54I'm on official business.
01:55What's that got to do with me wanting a ride?
01:59Sir, he's our food bait.
02:00Hold your horses.
02:01I'm just packaging it up.
02:02You're not going anywhere.
02:08In fact, none of you are going anywhere.
02:13Come on.
02:20Police.
02:22Whoever you are, drop your weapon.
02:28I'm back inside.
02:32All right.
02:35I need everybody to stay calm.
02:37Stay away from the windows.
02:39I don't want to hurt anybody, but I will.
02:41If anyone does anything unwise.
02:44Why the hell are there coppers out there?
02:46How the hell should I know?
02:47Sorry for the language, sister.
02:49You are aware I'm not from around here.
02:51So what?
02:52So, whatever reason you have for doing this has nothing to do with me.
02:56Don't matter.
02:56You're in it now.
02:58Hey, you.
02:59China.
03:00You got here less than five minutes ago.
03:02What do the cops do in here?
03:03How would I know?
03:04Sir.
03:05What?
03:06My wife's pregnant.
03:07Lucky you.
03:08Just don't do anything to hurt her, please.
03:10Whether she or any of you gets hurt is up to you.
03:14Says the man holding the gun.
03:15Yeah, that's right.
03:16Says the man holding the gun.
03:18Where'd the black fella go?
03:28It's getting the local police.
03:31Can't handle it on your own, eh, big city?
03:34No, it's just that the local police might know something about the man.
03:36Why am I explaining this to you?
03:40Just stay out of the way and keep quiet.
03:42You think the local police might have it in their hearts to bring us some food?
03:47What are you up to?
04:03I am making cellophane.
04:06I've contacted Jacques Brandenberger and he's shared his process with me.
04:11I see.
04:12You don't know what it is?
04:13An area of knowledge I appear to lack.
04:17It is a semi-permeable material.
04:23Impermeable to liquid, but not to vapor.
04:27All right.
04:28It seems to me the ideal material in which to collect evidence.
04:32We often collect evidence with blood or other liquids on it.
04:37And if we were to place that in a paper or a cloth bag, important details might otherwise be...
04:44I'd imagine this cellophane would keep a sandwich fresh as well.
04:49Well, I suppose it's possible.
04:51Why would one want to?
04:54How can I help you, Watts?
04:56Uh, are we involved in a case with the Royal Newfoundland Constabulary?
05:01Not that I'm aware of.
05:02Why?
05:02I saw Constable Crabtree take receipt of an official letter.
05:08Oh.
05:10Well, I suppose if it's anything of consequence, then George will tell me.
05:15But please put that down.
05:17And this just arrived today?
05:26It did.
05:28Out of the blue?
05:30Well, I'd made inquiries.
05:33I see.
05:34Without telling me?
05:36I wanted it to be a surprise.
05:39You certainly accomplished that, George.
05:42When would the position start?
05:45As soon as we could get there.
05:48Wait.
05:48Well, yes, we'd both go, of course, Effie.
05:51Newfoundland is the perfect place to raise a family.
05:54And you wouldn't have to...
05:55I mean, with my new salary, we'd be on Easy Street.
05:57And you didn't think to talk to me about any of this.
06:00Marriage is supposed to be a partnership, George.
06:02I know, Effie, but you know I want a family.
06:04And you know I don't.
06:07Or at least I thought you did, but now it's becoming very clear to me that you don't listen to a word I say.
06:11Oh, Effie.
06:12George, we will speak about this later.
06:14That is, unless you've already made your decision.
06:15What are you doing?
06:27Just getting my wife some water.
06:28Stay back.
06:31Get her some water.
06:35Sit down, sister.
06:36Allie, very dear.
06:44I'm just perched.
06:45So, with two armed policemen out there and more coming, how do you plan to get out of this?
06:51How is that your business?
06:52I'm not concerned about my business.
06:54I'm more worried about yours.
06:56Keep your worry to yourself, China.
06:58Korea.
07:00What?
07:00I'm not Chinese.
07:02I'm Korean.
07:02Sure, okay, whatever you like.
07:04Never heard of it.
07:05So, what's your next move?
07:07Shoot us all?
07:07Hey, don't be giving him any ideas.
07:10Jonah Huxley!
07:15Are you in there, Jonah?
07:17You might want to answer the man.
07:19You might want to keep your trap shut.
07:21Don't get him angry, all right?
07:24I'd advise you to walk out now before you get yourself in any more trouble than you're already in.
07:30Your boy here was telling me you're commanding officers in there.
07:39Yes, yes.
07:41And his name is Constable Edward Roberts.
07:43I prefer, Teddy.
07:46I meant no offense.
07:47The boy is what I call Stan here.
07:50I'm not right, Stan.
07:51That's right.
07:52Anyway, you know this man inside?
07:55Jonah Huxley.
07:56Just wanted a long line of troublemakers.
08:00What does he want?
08:02I've got six souls here!
08:05You let Cordell out and they all walk away.
08:08You don't!
08:14Who's Cordell?
08:16His brother.
08:18We're holding him in our cells.
08:19He's a murderer.
08:20Three bullets.
08:22What?
08:23He's fired three bullets so far.
08:24The pistol is his only weapon and he didn't bring extra ammunition.
08:27He's only got three more left.
08:29You're proficient with that weapon?
08:31Very.
08:32Good to know.
08:34I might be calling on you.
08:35Stand ready.
08:41Let these people go.
08:43You're ordering me?
08:44It's in your best interest.
08:46You know my best interests?
08:48You're holding a nun in a pregnant pool.
08:50This won't go well for you if either of those two get hurt.
08:52Keep me.
08:54Let the others go.
08:55I'm worth something.
08:56They're not.
08:57Hey!
08:58Let him talk.
08:59I'm a police officer.
09:01You.
09:02Yes.
09:03Believe it or not, me.
09:05Now I'm just reaching for my badge.
09:06Those men won't let any harm come to me.
09:11Or you.
09:12And I'll do all I can to help you if you let the others go.
09:18You can burn the place down.
09:20Smoke them out.
09:22That does not seem like a wise idea.
09:24Something's happening.
09:24Did you tell them to do that?
09:38Some sort of plan?
