00:00Careful, careful.
00:03Mr. Wolf expects his meals on time.
00:06I have to begin his apricot omelette in 20 minutes.
00:10Apricot omelette.
00:15That's a little adjustment, that's all, yeah.
00:18Yeah, it's okay now.
00:21Ah, any time.
00:24It's call service.
00:25That's all we've been doing lately.
00:27Everything in the house breaking down suddenly.
00:31The stove, the telephone, the TV.
00:34There are things today not so good as used to be.
00:57No?
00:59No?
01:03No?
01:03No?
01:04No?
01:05The young woman seems to think well of you, aren't she?
01:35That's because I'm shy.
02:05Good morning, butterfly.
02:08Lovely day, isn't it, huh?
02:10It's a lovely day for death.
02:11Ha, ha, ha, ha.
02:13Ha, ha, ha.
02:15Ha, ha, ha.
02:17Ha, ha, ha.
02:47Ha, ha, ha.
03:17Ha, ha, ha.
03:47Ha, ha, ha, ha.
03:54This was tucked inside the morning paper.
03:56It wasn't ticking, so I brought it in.
03:58Hmm.
03:59Prince, my apricot omelet.
04:03Yes, sir?
04:04Most satisfactory.
04:05Oh, I'm glad.
04:06Oh, I'm glad.
04:07I was worried.
04:08There was trouble with the stove.
04:10Oh?
04:11But the gas company man fixed it in time.
04:14Yeah, the electrician came.
04:16He, uh, repaired the heater up in the plant room.
04:18There was no harm to the orchids.
04:20Oh, no, they're fine.
04:21I checked it out with Theodore.
04:22Uh, there's a magazine reporter wants to arrange an interview.
04:26Is she exceptionally attractive, Archie?
04:30How'd you know I was a she?
04:34If you had not been spurred on by your appraisal of the young woman, you would not have bothered to suggest that I break a long-standing rule, which is no interviews.
04:42Her name's Dana Groves, and she's exceptionally attractive.
04:50I'm afraid you will have to find some other method to persuade her of your desirability, Archie.
04:57Like I said, came with a morning paper.
05:00No extra charge.
05:12Ooh.
05:21Butterfly with a pen to it.
05:27Now careful, careful.
05:28哇h.
05:29Wow.
05:31Mr Wolf expects his meals on time.
05:34I have to begin his apricot omelette in 20 minutes.
05:38Apricot omelette.
05:39Oh, oh, oh.
05:41Shit.
05:42That was a little adjustment, that's all.
05:45Yeah, it's okay now.
05:49Anytime.
05:51Just call service.
05:53That's all we've been doing lately.
05:55Everything in the house breaking down suddenly.
05:58The stove, the telephone, the TV.
06:02There are things today not so good as used to be.
06:09I don't think you need to use that chariot.
06:13Stop.
06:15Stop.
06:17Stop.
06:19Stop.
06:21Stop.
06:23Stop.
06:27Stop.
06:31Stop.
06:35Stop.
06:37The young woman seems to think well of you, aren't you?
07:03It's because I'm shy.
07:07It's because I'm shy.
07:37It's a lovely day for death.
07:39It's because I'm shy.
07:41It's because I'm shy.
07:43It's because I'm shy.
07:45It's because I'm shy.
07:47It's because I'm shy.
07:49It's because I'm shy.
07:51It's because I'm shy.
07:53It's because I'm shy.
07:55It's because I'm shy.
07:57It's because I'm shy.
07:59It's because I'm shy.
08:03It's because I'm shy.
08:05It's because I'm shy.
08:07It's because I'm shy.
08:09It's because I'm shy.
08:11It's because I'm shy.
08:13It's because I'm shy.
08:15It's because I'm shy.
08:17It's because I'm shy.
08:19It's because I'm shy.
08:21It's because I'm shy.
08:23It's because I'm shy.
08:25It's because I'm shy.
08:27It's because I'm shy.
08:29It's because I'm shy.
09:31Sir?
09:32Most satisfactory.
09:34Oh, I'm glad.
09:36I was worried.
09:38There was trouble with the stove.
09:39But the gas company man fixed it in time.
09:43The electrician came.
09:44He repaired the heater up in the plant room.
09:46Barnroom.
09:47There was no harm to the orchids.
09:48Oh, no, they're fine.
09:49I checked it out with Theodore.
09:51There's a magazine reporter wants to arrange an interview.
09:54Is she exceptionally attractive, Archie?
10:00How'd you know I was a she?
10:02If you had not been spurred on by your appraisal of the young woman, you would not have bothered to suggest that I break a longstanding rule, which is no interviews.
10:10Her name's Dana Groves, and she's exceptionally attractive.
10:15I'm afraid you will have to find some other method to persuade her of your desirability, Archie.
10:24Like I said, came with a morning paper.
10:28No extra charge.
10:29A butterfly with a pen through it.
10:51Precisely.
10:52I can't read the signature.
10:54Filigree.
10:55The signature is filigree.
10:56And he is saying, quite clearly, that he intends to pin Butterfly through the heart.
11:05Now, wait a minute.
11:05You're losing me.
11:07Who's Butterfly?
11:08I am.
11:11Prince, you said the repairman came in this morning?
11:15Yes, he was here for nearly an hour.
11:19Then can you describe him?
11:20Of course.
11:21He was about this tall, long hair, and a big mustache.
11:27Oh, it's hard to remember exactly.
11:32Well, he was about so tall.
11:34You have a mustache, long hair?
11:36No, no, no, no.
11:36Very neat.
11:37Horn-Rind spectacles.
11:39Oh, yes, a piece of adhesive on his cheek.
11:42Cut and shaving, he said.
11:43Wait a minute.
11:44Yes, Archie.
11:45That guy, two days ago, the TV repairman that worked on the set in your office, he had a piece of adhesive, too.
11:53He said he'd gotten burned.
11:55He was about the same height as Theodore's friend and Fritz's.
11:59Hair color?
12:00It was brown with some gray in it.
12:03You know, it's funny, though.
12:03I got the feeling he dyed it, that he was older than he looked.
12:07He is 58 years of age, and his name is John Allen Bredeman.
12:16Some time ago, he promised to kill me.
12:23It would appear that D-Day has arrived.
12:28Well, you don't know for sure it was this Bredeman.
12:31Three men.
12:33Noticeably different, yet each man is the same height.
12:36Each man has something in the nature of a disguise.
12:39Mustache, horn-rimmed glasses, or a piece of adhesive tape.
12:43Each man wears a distinctive uniform, or work coverall.
12:46Clearly, Archie, one man, disguised, in my home, unwatched, doing anything he liked.
12:52Doing what?
12:54Now, we checked everything.
12:55Nothing is missing.
12:57Perhaps.
12:58I'm very much afraid that something has been added.
13:02Bredeman's specialty was demolition.
13:05In the Army?
13:06Yes.
13:07He was a hero.
13:10A much decorated hero, I might add.
13:13Some time ago.
13:16In a war.
13:20Fought, of course, to ensure eternal peace.
13:23I commanded a military intelligence unit.
13:26We were very successful until we were betrayed by one of our own, John Allen Bredeman, codenamed Filigree.
13:36As a result of that betrayal, three of my men were ambushed by the enemy and shot to death.
13:41When Bredeman realized he was under suspicion, he escaped.
13:46He lived under an assumed identity for seven years.
13:49He was finally caught, tried, sentenced to 20 years imprisonment.
13:55Now we saw.
13:56Now we saw.
13:57Obviously.
13:58And planning to kill me, as promised.
14:02As promised.
14:03In a pathetic attempt at revenge.
14:07Pathetic.
14:08No, not so pathetic, my friend, as you were about to learn.
14:12All right, Goodwin.
14:13What do you want to know about this Brademan character?
14:14Inspector Wolf's always been interested in prison reform.
14:15Brademan's sort of a test case.
14:16Well, his sentence was commuted last year.
14:17Good behavior.
14:18He was a model prisoner.
14:19How long ago did he get out?
14:20Nine months.
14:21In current address?
14:22Ha ha ha.
14:23In current address.
14:24Looks like the studious type.
14:25He took every course the prison offered.
14:26Electrical engineering, chemistry, physics, physics, physics, physics, physics, physics, physics,
14:28physics, physics, physics, physics, physics, physics, physics, physics, physics, physics, physics, physics and physics.
14:31he was a model prisoner. How long ago did he get out? Nine months. No current address? No current
14:38address. Looks like the studious type. He took every course the prison offered. Electrical
14:43engineering, chemistry, physics. It says here he rebuilt the prison's telephone switching system.
14:50That's very impressive. Any chance you could run a trace on him? If I had a reason. Friendship?
14:58Friendship costs, Goodwin. I want to know why Wolf is interested. He's interested in the way
15:04Bredeman educated himself. What he's doing with his life now, things like that.
15:10Okay, I'll see what I can pick up.
15:12Hello. Remember me? How could I forget? Dana Grove's girl reporter. Mr. Wolf said no. And when he says no that way, he means no in every language. I'm sorry.
15:38We could have dinner Friday night, and I could apologize in detail.
15:43Uh, what would he do if you just brought me in? Fire me.
15:47Well, then you'd be sure to have Friday night free, wouldn't you?
15:52My problem is I'm too easy. I'll be gentle.
16:00You, I take it, are Miss Groves?
16:16I prefer Dana.
16:17Surely Mr. Goodwin explained to you that I do not grant interviews.
16:21Yes, he did. I consider them the equivalent of capering nude in public.
16:26Good day, Miss Groves, and you are free to take Mr. Goodwin with you.
16:31Good morning, butterfly.
16:35Do you recognize the voice?
16:37I've been expecting your call to agree.
16:47Don't bother, Goodwin. The phone won't work anymore except for me.
16:51You see, as I was saying, you can't call out unless you ask me very nicely.
16:56You might want to call for help, and we can't have that now, can I hear you?
16:59I assume we're also under visual surveillance.
17:02Oh, yes, you are. You always were a gifted technician.
17:07What's going on?
17:09Don't worry about anything. It'll be all right.
17:11I'm not worried. I'm fascinated. I came for a story, didn't I?
17:13I hope you're hungry, butterfly.
17:16Not at the moment, they'll agree. Why?
17:19I'm about to give a cooking lesson.
17:21Fritz, the kitchen!
17:26Fritz, get away from this stuff!
17:32Are you all right, Fritz?
17:46There we are, Fritz. It is not serious.
17:48How did it happen?
17:49I'm fine, sir. Thank you.
17:51Fair warning, butterfly.
17:53Whose voice is that?
17:56His name's John Allen Braderman, an old associate.
18:00You can stop sniffing around, Goodwin.
18:03I'm wired into your own intercom system.
18:06You'll have to rip it all out to forgo the pleasure of my voice.
18:09You may imagine you have some grudge against me, Braderman,
18:13but you have wounded an innocent man.
18:15Well, I don't mean to hurt anybody innocent,
18:17but anybody in your house finds himself in a battle zone.
18:20Tell me, exactly what are we fighting about?
18:23Guilt and innocence.
18:30I was court-martial-hounded, railroaded into prison for 20 years.
18:35Treason, that was it.
18:36You know, no, not treason.
18:37That was the lie.
18:38You lied, and that lie sent me to prison for 20 years.
18:42I'm gonna rip that truth out of you, out of your guts.
18:46Guilt and innocence, but a lie.
18:49Your guilt and my innocence.
18:53Then it is between us alone.
18:56Let the rest of them go.
18:57No, I may need them.
18:59You have me trapped in my house.
19:00What more do you need?
19:01It's no longer your house.
19:03It's mine.
19:04Telephone, electricity, gas, top to bottom.
19:07Don't try to open the doors or windows, either.
19:10Think of it as a toy house, a paper construction held in my hand.
19:15And when I am quite, quite ready, I close my hand.
19:21Get away from that phone!
19:22Goodwin!
19:27I said it's my house now.
19:29Right.
19:31Sure.
19:33Okay.
19:36Archie!
19:38Archie!
19:38Archie!
19:44Look, I'm going out.
19:45Now, if he's bluffing, we're clear.
19:47If he isn't, it's gonna be one hell of a diversion.
19:49You can all get out.
19:50Hey, I don't want to get anywhere.
19:52Don't worry about me.
19:53I was hoping to get an interview when I walked into a page one wire service story.
19:57I want it.
19:58Well, it is not exactly the kind you might get to file.
20:01Now, he could kill us all.
20:02Well, that's the second point.
20:03He's got this whole place wired.
20:05He wouldn't leave the front door open for us to walk out.
20:07He said don't touch the doors or windows.
20:09I know, but I am willing to risk it.
20:11Archie, you will commit no such immacility.
20:15Mr. Scrubs is right.
20:17Stay away from the door.
20:18Sorry, Mr. Wolf.
20:20This time, I'm on my own.
20:25Just a warning, Goodwin.
20:27There's half a kilo of explosives planted in that door frame.
20:30Open the door, and it blows!
20:33Maybe the whole house is with it.
20:34Archie.
20:35It's okay.
20:36You don't have to say it.
20:38I was just checking out our friend.
20:40Isn't there anything we can do, sir?
20:42Yes.
20:43Fritz, are you strong enough to restore order in your kitchen and begin preparations for lunch?
20:48Archie, cut the gas lines.
20:51A cold lunch, then?
20:52Yes, sir.
20:53And you can search the platform, Theodore.
20:56I want no risk to the orchids.
20:58Very good, sir.
20:59Activity is the best therapy, is that it, Mr. Wolf?
21:02Precisely.
21:03And I do not intend to be deprived of my lunch.
21:05Ms. Scrubs, you may wait at my office.
21:07We shall search the rest of the house, Archie.
21:09Well, that's a very good idea, Butterfly.
21:11Yes, I do believe you'll find that I've been quite thorough.
21:19Oh my, that's a very handsome room, Butterfly.
21:23Fit for, say, the last supper.
21:29Goodman, did I start on you?
21:56Not at all, I warned him to expect it.
21:59As you are always brilliant, Butterfly, you've already worked out everything,
22:05haven't you, my entire plan?
22:08Yes, I have.
22:10You intend to blackmail me with threats against my staff and that girl,
22:14to force a fraudulent confession from me.
22:16Well, it's a dead end, I fear, Phil agree.
22:19Dead end, I like the sound of that.
22:21Dead end.
22:23Dead end.
22:24If I do not agree, how long do I have?
22:27Well, the rest of your life.
22:28Oh, rest.
22:30So, well, put it back again.
22:32Ah, well, the rest of your life.
22:35Rest, Butterfly.
22:36Take a nap.
22:37Ah, well, perhaps it wouldn't have been much of a rest of the hands.
22:55Well, among the 20,000 odd species of the Orchidaceae, there are over 150 native to North America.
23:21These habanarias, for example.
23:26You're about to ask what relevance has horticulture to homicide, I imagine.
23:29You have my very words.
23:31Well, none, sir, except to the degree that I am involved in both at the moment.
23:36I would like for you to note these creations of nature, unique, fragile, beautiful.
23:43One of the few beneficial results of human interaction with our ecology.
23:47We hybridized them here.
23:49It took six years.
23:50Yes, but well worth it, Theodore.
23:52They're beyond compare.
23:53Indeed they are, sir.
23:55The most important...
23:56The entire house is covered.
23:58Even this room is wired.
24:00But I think we can talk in the basement room.
24:04We will go down there separately, try not to attract attention.
24:08Fritz's guide misgrows.
24:09I'll be back in a moment, sir.
24:17Very good, Theodore.
24:20In my office in 10 minutes, Archie, yes?
24:22Great.
24:39It's just a taste of what's to come, butterfly.
24:49You have exactly five minutes.
24:53Archie!
24:57Archie!
24:58Is there any place you didn't plant one?
25:08We have five minutes, Archie.
25:10Kindly get everybody else as far away as possible.
25:13But they're downstairs.
25:14They'll be okay.
25:15Five minutes ought to give us enough time to get at that thing.
25:17Maybe.
25:18I hope you know how to disarm a bomb.
25:20My memory serves me.
25:21Yes, I do.
25:22Good.
25:23Makes me feel better by about two percent.
25:28I can see it now.
25:50Now what?
25:51Do not touch it, Archie.
25:52It probably has an equilibrium trigger.
25:55If you move it even a fraction of an inch,
25:57it will detonate.
25:58So what do I do?
25:59Examine it closely.
26:01We have about three minutes.
26:04Tell me what you see.
26:06It's wrapped in tape.
26:07It's two wires.
26:08That's all I can get at without moving it.
26:10Are the wires the same thickness?
26:13Yes.
26:14What colors are they?
26:16One black, one red.
26:18Do you have your pen knife handy?
26:20I'm never without it.
26:21My boy scout training.
26:23Now what?
26:24All right.
26:25Cut the red wire carefully.
26:27Very carefully.
26:28Do not move the bomb itself.
26:29Do not move the bomb.
26:32Well, what makes you so sure
26:33cutting the red wire won't change our address?
26:35I will agree.
26:36Always have an orderly mind.
26:38Read for detonation.
26:40It's the way it was in the books.
26:43Thirty seconds, Archie.
26:46All right.
26:47Cut the red wire now.
26:56It's cut.
26:58Now what?
26:59We wait and see if I was right.
27:04Nine seconds, eight, seven, six, five, four, three, two, one.
27:17Satisfactory, Archie.
27:27Most satisfactory, Goodwin.
27:29So far.
27:30Butterfly, you understand this is really a test.
27:32There is more to come.
27:33Much, much more.
27:34More trouble, sir?
27:43What happened?
27:45A small delay.
27:50I am reasonably certain we can speak freely in this room.
27:52It has no wiring as yet, no openings to the outside.
27:58Archie has just diffused a bomb that was said to explode in the elevator.
28:02But he said he wouldn't kill you if...
28:05If I confessed my guilt, precisely.
28:08At which point he means to kill me face to face, point blank.
28:13It would be his way.
28:15Which also means he will have to enter this house.
28:19He will be vulnerable when he does.
28:21And only then, before that moment occurs, we may have time to act.
28:26Which means you have a plan.
28:29I have, Archie.
28:30I have, Archie.
28:32I have, indeed.
28:32I have, indeed.
28:36I have, indeed.
28:42I have, indeed.
29:02Well, Archie, I think I found the TV remote.
29:29Let me show you.
29:30Good.
29:31Now, from this moment forward, no talking, please.
29:34Good.
29:35Good.
29:36Good.
29:37Good.
29:38Good.
29:39Good.
29:40Good.
29:41Good.
29:42Good.
29:43Good.
29:44Good.
29:45Good.
29:46Good.
31:17I want you to stay back. I'm going to open a window panel and it may be wired.
31:22Or you don't.
31:23I have to take a chance.
31:25I have to take a chance.
31:55I have to take a chance.
32:25It's the only way out.
32:29When?
32:31Soon as it gets dark.
32:32I have to take a chance.
32:39Wolf!
32:39Wolf!
32:39Wolf!
32:39Wolf!
32:40Wolf!
32:41Wolf!
32:42Wolf!

33:25Wolf!
33:26Wolf!
33:27You've sent me into an eight-by-ten-foot coffin for nearly 20 years!
33:32I want payment for that!
33:34Yes, of course I understand.
33:36Let the others go. I'll wait here for you.
33:39Let them go? Where? Straight to the police?
33:41Oh, you must really think I'm mad.
33:47That was scarcely necessary.
33:50It's only a sample. Get them into the answer, Paul. Now!
33:52What if I tell you I am prepared to give you your confession?
34:00I'm not prepared to believe you. No, not until we're face-to-face.
34:04And see you confess to me, to admit it to me, on paper.
34:09Get them into the hall.
34:11Or the next button I press won't be a light switch.
34:14Very well.
34:17Prince, Theodore, Archie, enter the entry hall at once, please.
34:21And Archie, see that Miss Groves comes with you.
34:24It is important that we cooperate with Mr. Bredeman.
34:27He is most insistent.
34:29Most insistent.
34:51Can you hear me?
35:05Yes, yes.
35:07What's happening there? What's Wolf up to, Dana?
35:09Tell me.
35:12Can't you just talk to him?
35:13Get him to confess the truth?
35:14Dana, you know what sort of a man Wolf is.
35:18I've told you often enough.
35:21He betrayed me, put me into jail.
35:23He's going to pay for it.
35:26Father, please.
35:27I want your name cleared as much as you do.
35:28But an innocent man has already been hurt.
35:31It was an accident.
35:32He's old.
35:33He didn't move fast enough.
35:35Where's Goodman?
35:40Dana, where's Archie?
35:41Where is he?
35:41Dana, tell me.
35:42He's going to climb down from the roof.
35:47Father, you promised me there'd be no killing.
35:49All you wanted from Nero Wolf was the truth.
35:52Archie had nothing to do with it.
35:54Don't hurt him.
35:56Father.
35:58Why should I hurt him, darling?
36:00I mean, I didn't even know the man.
36:02He went down and joined the others.
36:03Down the entryway.
36:12And you wanted to go.
36:33I didn't know the man.
36:34I needed to do it.
36:35Oh, okay.
36:36I got it.
36:36I was watching this.
36:37I got it.
36:38I got it.
36:38I got it.
36:39I got it.
36:39I got it.
36:40I got it.
36:40I got it.
36:41I got it.
36:42Arcee!
37:12Oh, Jane, are you all right?
37:18Miss Groves indicated you were still up here.
37:20I thought you might try something foolhardy.
37:23We heard shots.
37:25Braderman spotted me.
37:26No, he wouldn't shoot at you.
37:28Indeed?
37:29Then why not, Miss Groves?
37:30I mean, the things he said, his quarrel is with you.
37:33Apparently, he's not that particular.
37:36It's like he was waiting for me.
37:37He knew what I was up to.
37:39Yes.
37:40We are therefore going to have to block his surveillance of this house.
37:42How?
37:44Theodore, go downstairs.
37:46Cut off all the electricity, gas, and water.
37:48Fritz, destroy our intercommunications system.
37:52I have to break into the walls.
37:54If so, we shall operate with flashlights and our knowledge of this house.
37:58Archie, you and I will search for any further explosive traps our friend has set.
38:02And from this moment on, all of you, absolute silence.
38:09And from this moment, let's see.
38:14Come on!
38:16Come on!
38:16Come on.
38:46That little house is probably booby-trapped.
38:48Shh.
38:49You are so damn loyal to Nero Wolfe.
38:52Why should you or any of us risk our lives for him?
38:54Would you listen to me?
38:56I've read him in wounded threats he shot at me.
38:59It's not a private war any longer.
39:02He's mad.
39:04You heard what Wolfe said then.
39:07No more talking.
39:16No more talking.

42:39Come in, Miss Breederman.
42:59You knew?
43:01For some time.
43:02Actually, it was most ingenious.
43:05All the electronic gadgetry is a distraction while your father planted a spy in my house.
43:10When he was able to anticipate Archie's attempt to escape, I was certain.
43:13You were always smarter, Butterfly.
43:15You always had that going for you.
43:18Why didn't you stop me?
43:21Use violence and thereby trigger more violence.
43:25I do not approve of stupidity, my dear.
43:30And perhaps I hope that you would see the truth.
43:34That I am innocent.
43:36That your father is ill.
43:38Ill.
43:39That he needs help.
43:41Lies.
43:42Distortions.
43:42He used them against me before he was trying to again.
43:47My father told me the whole story over the years.
43:51Every time I went to see him in prison.
43:54Did he ever happen to mention Captain Ryan?
43:57Captain Davis?
43:59Captain Silver?
44:00No.
44:02Who are they?
44:04Men who died because of your father.
44:07No, no.
44:08You.
44:08Because of you.
44:09Men in our unit.
44:11Your father betrayed them and because of that they were cut down by the enemy.
44:15And you could not live with that, could you, John?
44:18So you lied and swallowed the lie and let it poison you.
44:23All those bitter years spent hating me for something you did.
44:28Don't you, don't you, it was you.
44:30I want you to think back, John.
44:32Think back to a night which you have tried to erase from your memory.
44:35That dank night of May 17.
44:38When a small intelligence unit went out on a critical mission.
44:42But we were missing one man, John Allen Bredeman, codenamed Filigree.
44:47Why was he not with us?
44:49Nobody knew.
44:51Not then.
44:52So we went ahead without him.
44:54Into the woods.
44:56Minutes later, three of our good friends were dead from a hail of bullets.
45:01And the rest of us were in flight.
45:02And when the sorry remnants of that mission found cover and huddled together, tending our wounds.
45:08We knew why.
45:11Filigree had not accompanied us.
45:14It was you, John, who got word of our mission to the enemy.
45:19No.
45:21You told them.
45:25You had, you told them before you started out.
45:29I, I, I, I got lost in, in, in, in the woods, in the fog.
45:40That, that, that's where I wasn't with the unit.
45:42No.
45:43You told them the very path we would follow through the woods where their death squad awaited us.
45:48I told them.
45:51I told them.
45:52Nobody, anything.
45:57Give me the gun.
46:20No.
46:27It's all over, Brady.
46:43Don't hurt him!
46:45No!
46:50Don't hurt him!
47:13I don't know how to explain what I did.
47:18Before my mother died, we used to visit him in prison every week.
47:22He told me that story over and over again.
47:26I grew up with it.
47:28I believed him.
47:31After all that we endured together in those desperate hours.
47:36Would you believe me, Dana, if I told you that I thought your father was a good man?
47:43I do know he was a good father.
47:46Yes.
47:47He taught you the difference between right and wrong.
47:50You were able to recognize the truth.
47:53Look, by the way, on the subject of truth, Dana is a reporter.
48:01The significance of that observation, Archie, manages to elude me completely.
48:06It means she still wants an interview.
48:10I know.
48:11You think it's the same as dancing nude in public.
48:13Unless, of course, Archie can give you some suggestions on how to change the mind of a stubborn old mule.
48:21Over dinner, perhaps?
48:25Excellent idea, Archie.
48:28Over dinner, perhaps.
48:30Over dinner.
48:33Here.
48:34Hmm.
48:35Yeah.
48:36Yeah.
48:37Yeah.
48:38Yeah.
48:39Yeah.
48:40Yeah.
48:41Yeah.
48:42Yeah.
48:43Yeah.
48:44Yeah.
48:45Yeah.
48:46Yeah.
48:47Yeah.
48:48Yeah.
