00:00:00The End
00:00:30The End
00:01:00The End
00:01:30The End
00:01:59Hey, you all right down there?
00:02:06Stay where you are. Don't move. Keep calm. Don't get excited.
00:02:24I'll get you out of there right away. Just keep calm.
00:02:29Now, wait a minute.
00:02:33I want to help.
00:02:38There you are.
00:02:39What did we hit?
00:02:40Nothing. We had a blowout.
00:02:43I don't understand it either. There was a brand new tire this morning.
00:02:46All right. What's the matter? You sure you're all right?
00:02:49Oh, I'm a little shaky, I guess.
00:02:52Come on. We can sit down over here.
00:02:56What am I? An orphan?
00:03:01Come on.
00:03:01Any man that drives as fast as you do ought to be run out of this country.
00:03:06You tell me all about it sometime.
00:03:09Thanks for the lift, buddy.
00:03:12Say, I'm awfully sorry about all this.
00:03:14You're sorry? How about us? We can't stay here all night.
00:03:16Well, you won't have to. I said I'd get you to Carrington Hall and I will.
00:03:19How? You gonna fly us there on a broom?
00:03:20I'll get help. We passed the garage about two miles back.
00:03:23Now, you take it easy and don't worry about a thing.
00:03:25I'll be back in a flash with a tow car.
00:03:27Why, it's as simple as falling off a log.
00:03:30Ha! Comfortable?
00:03:34Toke away now.
00:03:42Must have been his wife with him.
00:03:50Uh-oh! Danger ahead! Two of them!
00:04:09Oh, thanks. It was awfully sweet of you to stop for us.
00:04:11But I...
00:04:12Annie, you get in the back seat.
00:04:13Can you manage the bags?
00:04:14Yes, I think so.
00:04:15Here. Here of mine.
00:04:17There.
00:04:18Now, mind if I sit on your lap?
00:04:20Oh, well, really, my dear young lady.
00:04:21I'll be sorry to inconvenience you, but we had a blowout.
00:04:25Oh, this is comfortable.
00:04:26Well, what are we waiting for?
00:04:28Oh, very well, Eddie. Drive on.
00:04:29Yes, sir.
00:04:32Would you mind telling me where you ladies are taking me?
00:04:35To the Carrington Estate.
00:04:37Uh-oh!
00:04:38Is there anything wrong with the Carrington Place?
00:04:40Yes, ma'am!
00:04:41If there wasn't anybody living there, it'd be a haunted house!
00:04:43My, my, Cosmo's late.
00:04:51He's usually home by now.
00:04:54Oh, my, it's chilly, isn't it?
00:04:56Emily, remind me to send this coat back.
00:04:58It doesn't keep me warm at all.
00:05:00Mrs. Topper, you haven't got it on.
00:05:02Oh, how silly of me.
00:05:04My, it's strange how it's usually cold in the winter and warm in summer, isn't it?
00:05:08Oh, there's Cosmo now.
00:05:10Oh, look, someone's waving to us.
00:05:16It's a lady.
00:05:18It's worse than that, boss.
00:05:19It's Mrs. Topper.
00:05:23Emily, look.
00:05:25He's got a carload of women.
00:05:28And one of them, one of them sitting on his lap.
00:05:31Oh, my, Emily.
00:05:38Well, here it is.
00:05:56Are you sure this is the Carrington Place?
00:05:59Yes, that's what they call it.
00:06:00Cheerful little Eiffel, isn't it?
00:06:06Thanks for the lift, Mr. Topper.
00:06:07Don't mention it.
00:06:09Hurry up with those bags, in here.
00:06:10Yes, sir.
00:06:11I waste no time around here.
00:06:15I'd like to invite you in, but...
00:06:17Oh, no, thanks.
00:06:18Very much.
00:06:19We've got to be getting home.
00:06:20We sure do.
00:06:21Goodbye.
00:06:24Goodbye.
00:06:28Goodbye.
00:06:29Good evening.
00:06:31Why don't you knock before you come out?
00:06:33I'm the bottler, Miss Carrington.
00:06:36Oh, I'm not Miss Carrington.
00:06:37There she is.
00:06:38How do you do?
00:06:39Won't you please step in?
00:06:41I'm not Miss Carrington.
00:06:42I'm not Miss Carrington.
00:06:43I'm not Miss Carrington.
00:06:44I'm not Miss Carrington.
00:06:45I'm not Miss Carrington.
00:06:46I'm not Miss Carrington.
00:06:47I'm not Miss Carrington.
00:06:48I'm not Miss Carrington.
00:06:49I'm not Miss Carrington.
00:06:50I'm not Miss Carrington.
00:06:51I'm not Miss Carrington.
00:06:52I'm not Miss Carrington.
00:06:53I'm not Miss Carrington.
00:06:54I'm not Miss Carrington.
00:06:55I'm not Miss Carrington.
00:06:56I'm not Miss Carrington.
00:06:57I'm not Miss Carrington.
00:06:58I'm not Miss Carrington.
00:06:59Miss Carrington?
00:07:12Yes.
00:07:13I'm Lillian, the housekeeper.
00:07:15Well, how do you do?
00:07:16This is my friend, Miss Richards.
00:07:18Howdy!
00:07:19Your father's waiting, Miss.
00:07:21Would you mind waiting here?
00:07:23This way, please.
00:07:29One moment, please.
00:07:38Miss Carrington?
00:07:39This is Dr. Jerry's, your father's physician.
00:07:42How do you do, Dr. Jerry's?
00:07:43I'd like a few words with you, Miss Carrington, before you see your father.
00:07:48Of course.
00:07:50I'll be as brief as possible.
00:07:52Your father's far from being a well man, Miss Carrington.
00:07:55Yes, I know.
00:07:56Seeing you for the first time may be something of a shock to him.
00:08:01I think I understand, Doctor.
00:08:03He's been looking forward to your arrival with great eagerness.
00:08:08I hope there'll never be any occasion for you to be separated from him again.
00:08:14Come with me, please.
00:08:15Mr. Carrington.
00:08:40Mr. Carrington.
00:08:43This is your daughter.
00:08:49This is your daughter.
00:08:49I don't know quite what to do or say.
00:09:16I don't know quite what to do or do I, except to tell you, Anne, you're beautiful.
00:09:26You're the image of her mother when she was young.
00:09:31Perhaps you'd better sit down.
00:09:34Yes.
00:09:34I know you must think it very strange, seeing your own father for the first time on the eve of your 21st birthday.
00:09:49Well, naturally, I've wondered why you never sent for me.
00:09:52Your mother loved the far east, Anne.
00:09:55Her last wish was that you'd be brought up in the land she loved so well.
00:09:59Oh, I've wanted to send for you many times, but I had to respect your mother's wishes.
00:10:03And, of course, my own health wouldn't permit me to visit you.
00:10:07Oh, I understand, Father.
00:10:10I hope we had a pleasant trip.
00:10:12Yes, we had a wonderful trip.
00:10:15We?
00:10:16Oh, I brought a friend along with me, an American girl named Gail Richards.
00:10:20Her father's the head of an exporting company in Shanghai.
00:10:23Richards, you say?
00:10:24Mm-hmm.
00:10:25Why, I hope you don't mind my bringing her.
00:10:30Of course not.
00:10:32Besides, the house belongs to you now.
00:10:34No, Father.
00:10:36To us.
00:10:37No, my dear.
00:10:38By the terms of your mother's will, everything belongs to you after tomorrow.
00:10:43What else do you do around here besides wine and clocks?
00:10:48Been here long?
00:10:50Twenty years.
00:10:51Twenty years.
00:10:52Looks like it might turn out to be a steady job, huh?
00:10:55Ha, ha, ha.
00:10:57Ah.
00:10:58Your mother wanted you to have these, Anne.
00:11:01They're exactly as she wore them twenty years ago.
00:11:05Oh, Dad, they're...
00:11:07They're beautiful.
00:11:08They'll look every bit as beautiful upon you as they did upon your mother.
00:11:12Dad, I...
00:11:13I never did know just how Mother died.
00:11:17Some sort of an accident, wasn't it?
00:11:19Yes, dear.
00:11:21Now, mine cave-in.
00:11:25I met your mother in Singapore.
00:11:28After you were born, we decided to move to Sumatra, where I had an interest in a tungsten mine.
00:11:33My partner was a man named Walter Harburg.
00:11:38One day he was showing her mother through the mine, when suddenly there was an earthquake.
00:11:45The tunnel collapsed.
00:11:46You've talked enough, Mr. Carrington.
00:11:49I'm sorry to interrupt, but we mustn't tire your father.
00:11:54Oh, of course not.
00:11:56I hope you'll like your room, dear.
00:11:58Oh, I'm sure I will.
00:11:59Lillian will show you where it is.
00:12:01I...
00:12:01I'm supposed to conserve my strength.
00:12:04It's quite all right, Father.
00:12:06Good night, darling.
00:12:07I'll see you in the morning.
00:12:08Good night.
00:12:10Good night, Dr. Joris.
00:12:11Good night, Miss Carrington.
00:12:12Where's Miss Richards?
00:12:18Here I am, pal.
00:12:24Anne!
00:12:25Anne, look out!
00:12:26Look out!
00:12:29Anne!
00:12:31Anne!
00:12:33Anne!
00:12:34Anne, are you hurt?
00:12:36Oh, no, I'm all right.
00:12:39Anne!
00:12:40What on earth happened?
00:12:42Well, I don't know.
00:12:43That was rather a close call.
00:12:45Close?
00:12:45Six more inches and we'd all be singing Annie.
00:12:47He doesn't live here anymore.
00:12:49How good has anything happened?
00:12:50Please, Mr. Carrington, you mustn't excite yourself.
00:12:54I think you'd better show the young ladies to their rooms.
00:12:57Yeah, pick us a couple without chandeliers, will you?
00:12:59This way, please.
00:13:02Thanks, old boy.
00:13:03Oh, you're a doll.
00:13:24The Chinese room will be yours, Miss Richards.
00:13:27Oh, you're a doll.
00:13:31Well, this is just dandy.
00:13:33I travel 7,000 miles to get away from Chinamen, and here I am with everything but a bowl of rice.
00:13:38What's that sound?
00:13:44It's the waves.
00:13:45Angry waves.
00:13:47Day after day, night after night, they beat with savage fury against the black rocks below.
00:13:52For 20 years, they've been calling, calling, calling to someone who never answers.
00:13:59Just like the pot of gold program.
00:14:02Will that be all, Miss?
00:14:03No, I'm starved.
00:14:04You forgot we didn't have any dinner.
00:14:06Rama will bring you a tray.
00:14:07Oh, any little thing will do.
00:14:09Lobster, salad, and beer, but nothing heavy.
00:14:11Anything for you, Miss Carrington?
00:14:12No, thank you, Rama.
00:14:14I'm going to bed, Gail.
00:14:15I'm all in.
00:14:16I'm kind of baggy myself.
00:14:20Good night, Miss Richards.
00:14:21Good night.
00:14:22I hope you rest in peace.
00:14:24Isn't that what they write on tombstones?
00:14:26Oh, don't be silly.
00:14:28Go on to bed.
00:14:29Good night, darling.
00:14:37Your father had this room done especially for you.
00:14:42Lovely.
00:14:43Very sorry, Miss, but we have no beer.
00:14:46I brought you some wine.
00:14:47Wine?
00:14:48Why, that champagne!
00:14:49Yes, Miss.
00:14:50Oh, put it down, buddy.
00:14:52Will there be anything else, Miss?
00:14:53Oh, that's all.
00:14:55Champagne.
00:14:57Why hide it?
00:14:58Ann?
00:15:14Yes?
00:15:15Is that you?
00:15:16Yes, it's me.
00:15:18Well, open up.
00:15:19Let me in.
00:15:25Whee-hoo!
00:15:28Gee, where's the glass slipper that goes with it?
00:15:40It is nice, isn't it?
00:15:41Oh, nice.
00:15:42It's heaven compared to that Chinese torture chamber I'm in.
00:15:46Gee, what a layout.
00:15:49Oh, this is for me.
00:15:52I've always wanted to sleep in one of these covered wagons.
00:15:55It's almost too nice to sleep in.
00:15:59Say, what do you have to do to get a bed like this?
00:16:01Rub a magic lamp or something?
00:16:03You really like this room, don't you?
00:16:05Ah, this is right up my alley.
00:16:07Oh, to catch measles and have to stay in a bed like this.
00:16:16Hey, where are you going?
00:16:18I'm going to bed.
00:16:19For tonight, darling, this room is yours.
00:16:21Oh, no, you don't.
00:16:23I wouldn't dream of letting you do anything like that.
00:16:26But it's a deal.
00:16:27Anything to keep out of China.
00:16:28Good night, Cinderella.
00:16:30Good night, pal.
00:16:31And I do mean her.
00:16:32Say, lock your door in case Lady Frankenstein walks in her sleep.
00:16:43Come in.
00:16:44Did you wish anything, Doctor?
00:16:49Are the young ladies comfortable?
00:16:52Quite.
00:16:53That will be all, then.
00:17:04I don't mind if I do.
00:17:06China was never like this.
00:17:36No one.
00:17:39No one.
00:17:44No!

00:23:29Get your cold feet off my back.
00:23:43You don't need all the covers, do you?
00:23:52Here I am, Toffee.
00:23:54Remember me, the girl that sat on your lap?
00:23:56Oh, this is terrible.
00:23:58What's terrible?
00:24:00You're a ghost. You're dead.
00:24:02No kidding.
00:24:04Okay, you've got to get out of here.
00:24:05I've had enough trouble with your kind of people.
00:24:07Well, it's strange I should be dead.
00:24:09I was young and healthy and I felt swell when I went to bed.
00:24:12So why did I die?
00:24:13I don't know, but you can't stay here.
00:24:15You've got to go back to the Carrington house.
00:24:16Cosmo!
00:24:17You see?
00:24:19Cosmo!
00:24:19Quick, do something. Vanish.
00:24:21Well, all right, Toffee. Here I go.
00:24:25Oh, it's you, dear.
00:24:27Cosmo, who on earth were you talking to?
00:24:29Nobody, dear.
00:24:31And nobody.
00:24:32I was just talking in my sleep, you know.
00:24:35Talking in your sleep?
00:24:36But that's such a waste of time.
00:24:38Besides, nobody can hear you.
00:24:39Oh, well, I'm not so sure about that.
00:24:43Cosmo, I'm sorry I was so mean.
00:24:45I know you'd tell me if there was anything between you and that girl.
00:24:48Let's forget all about her.
00:24:50Well, I'd like to, dear, but under the circumstances, I'm afraid I can't.
00:24:54Oh, well, of course.
00:24:55If that's the way you feel about it, I'll talk to you in the morning.
00:24:58When you're sober.
00:24:59Why don't you look where you're going?
00:25:09Why don't you be where you are?
00:25:10Now see what you've done.
00:25:12That's nothing compared to what I'm going to do if you don't come with me.
00:25:15Come with you? Where?
00:25:17Back to the Carrington house.
00:25:18I'm curious to know what happened to me.
00:25:20Go ahead.
00:25:22Oh, no.
00:25:23No, I couldn't go alone, I'm afraid.
00:25:25I don't like that house.
00:25:26It's spooky.
00:25:26I won't go.
00:25:28All right, if that's the way you feel about it.
00:25:31Get out of my bed.
00:25:32I won't, not unless you come with me.
00:25:34You get out of my bed or I'll tell Mrs. Topper.
00:25:36What'd you tell her?
00:25:37I'll tell her you're in my bed.
00:25:39I...
00:25:40Oh, no, I...
00:25:42I can't very well tell her that.
00:25:43Not very well, but I can.
00:25:45Oh, but you wouldn't do that.
00:25:46Mrs. Topper wouldn't understand.
00:25:48Are you coming with me or not?
00:25:49I can't.
00:25:50All right, then.
00:25:51I'll give you three to make up your mind and then I'll scream.
00:25:54One, two...
00:25:55Oh, no, no, no.
00:25:56Oh, please, please don't.
00:25:58All right, you'll win.
00:26:00Now, what do you want me to do now?
00:26:01Call your chauffeur and tell him to take us to the Carrington house.
00:26:04Oh.
00:26:15Hello?
00:26:17Yes, boss.
00:26:18But it ain't daylight yet.
00:26:24Oh, you know that, huh?
00:26:28Yes, sir.
00:26:28Right away.
00:26:29Right away.
00:26:29Oh, what are you gaping at?
00:26:41Oh, what are you gaping at?
00:26:59I wish I knew.
00:27:00I wish I knew.
00:27:03Well, come on, get going.
00:27:06Yes, sir.
00:27:07Where to, Mr. Topper?
00:27:20The Carrington place.
00:27:22Pardon me, boss, but could I sort of inquire what we're going over to the Carrington place for?
00:27:27Come on.
00:27:28To look for a body.
00:27:30Better look for one for me, too, because the one I'm using now is known.
00:27:34Come on, Eddie, you want to help me, you know?
00:27:48With what, boss?
00:27:49With the body.
00:27:49The body.
00:27:53Okay, I'll go with you, but kind of keep to one side, because I got a feeling some runners going to be done.
00:28:01Toppy, that's the bedroom I was in.
00:28:03The one with the balcony.

00:35:18huh cosmo cosmo
00:35:31Edward. Yes, ma'am. What in the world is wrong with you? It ain't me, it's them things. Things? Doors closing by themselves. People talking to nothing and getting answers. I'm going back. Back where? To Mr. Benny. Ain't nothing like this ever happened there. Oh, stop all this little battle. Where's Mr. Topper? He's over to that
00:36:01Carrington, please. Oh, that girl again. You mean the one that sat in us, wife? I'm afraid so. Emily, get on your clothes. We're going right over there. Excuse me, ma'am, but are you aiming to walk? Well, certainly not. You're going to drive us. My, my. That's what I was afraid of. Normal. As normal as you'd expect for this type of man. I've lost the body. I've lost my car. If I don't get out of here very soon, I'll lose my mind. What he needs more than anything else is rest. When he feels better, we'll send him home in my car. And dear, you'd better go to bed.
00:36:31Good night, Mr. Topper. Good night. Mr. Topper, Gail's disappearance has me worried. Well, look what it's done to me. Well, where did you last see her? She was sitting on a table in the hall and she hung my hat on a Chinaman's foot. Just take it easy, Mr. Topper, and the car will be along in a few minutes.
00:37:01Oh, you remember me? Yes, of course, but what are you doing here? Oh, well, I hate to be commercial lady, but somebody owes me $26.80. Oh, that's right. I'm sorry I forgot. You also forgot to say goodbye. It was a cute disappearing act you and your partner pulled.
00:37:27You, you, you didn't by chance see her. You didn't pass her on the road. No. What is she, Sleepwalker? I don't know, but she's gone. Oh, disappeared again. Say, she must have been raising a magician's hat.
00:37:40I'll get your money for you.
00:37:57Oh, what's the matter?
00:38:02Anything wrong?
00:38:02I hate to go up those stairs.
00:38:08Would you mind coming with me?
00:38:12Upstairs?
00:38:16With you?
00:38:18Mm-hmm.
00:38:21I'd better come back in the morning.
00:38:22Please, won't you come?
00:38:25Say, are you in a jam or something?
00:38:28Just nervous, I guess.
00:38:30Nervous? Why?
00:38:31Well, I, I can't explain, but, well, things have been happening and...
00:38:36Well, you can stop worrying, honey. Nothing's going to happen to you. Come on.
00:38:41I'd hate to pay the light bill in a joint like this.
00:38:44Oh, this is my room.
00:38:46Well, if you don't mind, I'll just wait here.
00:39:01Ah!
00:39:21Oh, shit!
00:39:22Ah!
00:39:22Miss Carrington!
00:39:52What's going on here? Who's that guy in the black coat?
00:39:56What happened to her? Who are you?
00:39:58I'm the housekeeper.
00:39:59Fine way to keep house. Women screaming, boogeymen jumping out of windows.
00:40:02If I had a house like this, I wouldn't want to keep it.
00:40:04Miss Carrington. Miss Carrington.
00:40:07Miss Carrington.
00:40:09What's going on here?
00:40:10I just said that. Who are you?
00:40:12And don't tell me you're this girl's rich uncle.
00:40:13Oh, don't be silly. I'm her father.
00:40:15Well, that's close enough.
00:40:15Anne. Anne.
00:40:17She's fainted.
00:40:18I'll bet you the first thing she says when she opens her eyes is, where am I?
00:40:21What happened?
00:40:26Say, what are you doing here?
00:40:27All right, so I'll explain it to you.
00:40:29This young lady owes me for a taxi cab ride.
00:40:32I came here to collect it.
00:40:33She asked me up to this room.
00:40:34I heard her scream and walked into the middle of an Orson Welles broadcast.
00:40:38The man was standing over me with a knife.
00:40:40There it is there.
00:40:41Where did you get that knife?
00:40:42Oh, I found it out of the window in the next room.
00:40:43Perhaps Tucker's story was right.
00:40:45He said they'd murdered the other girl.
00:40:49Now they've tried to murder Anne.
00:40:51Rather, call the police.
00:40:54Oh, now, wait a minute.
00:40:55You don't think I had anything to do with this.
00:40:57What, do you?
00:40:58Why, certainly not.
00:41:00Anne, dear, you'd better get your clothes on.
00:41:01I'm afraid you're going to remain here, young man.
00:41:07But, good heavens, why should anybody want to kill Miss Carrington?
00:41:10Well, they killed me, didn't they?
00:41:11Yes, I can understand that.
00:41:12But Miss Carrington...
00:41:13Oh, don't worry about her anymore.
00:41:15She's got a nice, handsome bodyguard.
00:41:17He's a taxi driver.
00:41:18Maybe he's the one that's doing all the killing.
00:41:20Nonsense.
00:41:21He didn't bring his cab in the house with him.
00:41:23Well, then, if she's safe, there's no reason for me to stay.
00:41:25Good night.
00:41:26I've had a lovely time.
00:41:28Oh, Toppy, don't run out now.
00:41:30We've got to find out who killed me.
00:41:32Then we'll know who's threatening Anne.
00:41:34Yes, but I don't want my wife threatening me, you see.
00:41:36And she will if she finds out.
00:41:37No, I'm going home.
00:41:39Oh.
00:41:43Madame, I'm quite sure you're mistaken.
00:41:45I'm not mistaken.
00:41:46I know I'm not.
00:41:47I'm Mrs. Topper, aren't I, Edward?
00:41:49Yes, ma'am.
00:41:49But I don't think that's what the gentleman means.
00:41:51I certainly do know what I mean, don't I?
00:41:53Frankly, madame, I don't know.
00:41:55Well, who does?
00:41:56What do you say we start from the beginning?
00:41:57That's a good idea.
00:41:58Where is my husband?
00:42:00But, madame, I don't know.
00:42:01This is a private home.
00:42:03Private?
00:42:03It looks more like a parade ground.
00:42:05Can I help you?
00:42:06You certainly can.
00:42:09Do you live here?
00:42:11Yes, I do.
00:42:12I'm Mrs. Topper.
00:42:13I'm looking for my husband, Mr. Topper.
00:42:15Oh, where's that friend of yours?
00:42:17The one that goes around sitting on people's laps?
00:42:19Well, I...
00:42:20She's been murdered, according to your husband.
00:42:22Don't change the subject.
00:42:23If you won't help us, we'll find him ourselves.
00:42:25Come along, Emily.
00:42:25I think you'll find him in the sitting room.
00:42:27The sitting room.
00:42:28Maybe she's still sitting on his lap.
00:42:29Sitting on his lap?
00:42:30Good heavens.
00:42:31You mean you've got a room just for that?
00:42:33Where is it?
00:42:34Right this way.
00:42:35Come along, Emily.
00:42:36Come along.
00:42:38Here she comes.
00:42:39You've got to go.
00:42:40I don't trust you, Bunny.
00:42:41You tried to run out on me.
00:42:43How can I run out with her there?
00:42:45And how can I face her with you here?
00:42:47Well, sounds logical.
00:42:49Okay, here we go.
00:42:52Come along, fella.
00:42:57Cosmo!
00:42:59Cosmo!
00:43:00Cosmo!
00:43:01Cosmo!
00:43:02Well?
00:43:03Where is he?
00:43:04He was here a few minutes ago.
00:43:05Rama!
00:43:06What happened to him?
00:43:07I don't know, sir.
00:43:08But I'm positive he hasn't left the house.
00:43:09And he won't.
00:43:10Not till I find him and give him a piece of my mind.
00:43:12Do you mind?
00:43:13Not at all.
00:43:14Right this way.
00:43:15Come along, Emily.
00:43:17Come along, Edward.
00:43:18Cosmo!
00:43:20Cosmo!
00:43:21Cosmo!
00:43:26Operator.
00:43:27Operator.
00:43:28I want to report a missing husband.
00:43:30Edward, you look for him down that way.
00:43:33It's awful dark down there.
00:43:35Darkness never hurt anyone.
00:43:37It ain't the darkness, Miss Topper.
00:43:38It's what's in it.
00:43:39Don't be silly.
00:43:40There's no difference between light and dark.
00:43:42Except the lights are out.
00:43:44Run along.
00:43:46I'll go, but every hair in my coat is standing on in.
00:43:52Cosmo Topper.
00:43:54Well, what's he look like?
00:43:55Like a banker.
00:43:56Of course, that's because he is a banker.
00:44:00Well, can you describe him?
00:44:02Well, he wears a size 15 shirt with a 33 sleeve.
00:44:05A nine and a half sock, Lyle.
00:44:08And he's slightly bald.
00:44:09Oh, yes.
00:44:10There's something else.
00:44:11Let me see.
00:44:12I paid the milkman.
00:44:13Luncheon's been changed from Thursday to Friday.
00:44:15Oh, yes.
00:44:16There's been a murder.
00:44:17Murder?
00:44:18Yes.
00:44:19Murder.
00:44:20Capital M-U-R-D-E-R.
00:44:23Murder.
00:44:25Trying to make these policemen understand something is harder than doing it yourself.
00:44:28Mr. Topper!
00:44:29Hey, Eddie.
00:44:30Got a cigarette?
00:44:31Give me a match.
00:44:44Give me a match.
00:44:45Give me a match.
00:45:18Mr. Topper!
00:45:27Mr. Topper!
00:45:29Mr. Topper!
00:45:32Oh, Mr. Topper!
00:45:47Mr. Topper!
00:45:54Whoa!
00:45:56Whoa!
00:45:57Whoa!
00:45:59Whoa!
00:46:03Cosmo? Cosmo? Cosmo, where are you?
00:46:33Why, Toppy, what are you doing here?
00:46:36Oh, where are you?
00:46:38Behind the screen. Getting dressed.
00:46:41Little sassy face, didn't your Ma ever tell you to knock on a lady's bedroom door before you barge in?
00:46:46This is most embarrassing. Why couldn't you stay the way you were?
00:46:50A negligee is hardly appropriate for solving crimes.
00:46:58Come on, Toppy, we've got things to do.
00:47:03Cosmo?
00:47:10Gotta get out of here.
00:47:12Cosmo?
00:47:14I'm from headquarters. What's the trouble here?
00:47:16Trouble, sir?
00:47:17Now, don't stand there dumb. I got a phone call about a half an hour ago that there's been a murder.
00:47:21And maybe you did it.
00:47:23Cosmo?
00:47:26In here, quick.
00:47:28Cosmo?
00:47:29Cosmo?
00:47:30Oh, this must be the kitchen.
00:47:31Well, it's not the music room.
00:47:32Well, he's not here.
00:47:33Cosmo?
00:47:34Where on earth can he be?
00:47:35Cosmo?
00:47:36Cosmo?
00:47:37Cosmo?
00:47:38My, it's drafty in here.
00:47:39Oh, look at the chocolate cake. Emily makes some tea.
00:47:44Tea?
00:47:45Mm, of course, to go with our cake.
00:47:46But what about Mr. Topper?
00:47:47Emily, you know he never drinks tea.
00:47:48Well, yes, I know.
00:47:49What?
00:47:50What?
00:47:51What?
00:47:52What?
00:47:53What?
00:47:54What?
00:47:55What?
00:47:56What?
00:47:57What?
00:47:58You just get off of monotolus.
00:47:59Now, then.
00:48:13Did you see the face of the man who wore the cloak?
00:48:15Now then, did you see the face of the man who wore the cloak?
00:48:27No, it was covered up.
00:48:29Somebody's covering up a lot of things around here.
00:48:31Why don't you let her alone? She's nervous and upset.
00:48:33She is. How do you think I feel?
00:48:35A minor and no body.
00:48:37Didn't anybody see a body?
00:48:39Didn't you say that Topper said he saw the body?
00:48:41Cut out the double talk. Who's Topper?
00:48:43These men said he saw the body.
00:48:45Where is he?
00:48:45He's gone.
00:48:46He's gone?
00:48:48The body's gone.
00:48:49Say, what are you people trying to do to me?
00:48:51I'm sure, Sergeant, it's nothing but a tempest and a teapot.
00:48:55Miss Carrington had a note from the supposedly dead girl that will clear it all up.
00:48:58Where's the note?
00:48:59It's gone.
00:49:01The note's gone.
00:49:02Topper's gone.
00:49:03The body's gone.
00:49:04Now look here.
00:49:05I don't have to come here to be made a fool of.
00:49:07Beg pardon, sir, but I believe Miss Carrington left the note upstairs.
00:49:16Jim, take the boys upstairs.
00:49:17Search everywhere.
00:49:18Don't miss anything.
00:49:19Tear it apart.
00:49:20Now look here, Rebecca.
00:49:23Quit stalling.
00:49:24Where is this guy Topper?
00:49:26I don't know.
00:49:27Well, what was he doing here in the first place?
00:49:28I don't know.
00:49:29Say, what do you think I am?
00:49:30I don't know.
00:49:32Who's this fresh guy?
00:49:33Oh, he's all right.
00:49:34He's a taxi driver.
00:49:35Yeah?
00:49:36Well, where's your taxi?
00:49:37Now, don't tell me that's disappeared, too.
00:49:39Where do you think it is?
00:49:40I'm not supposed to think.
00:49:42I'm from the city hall.
00:49:44Now, where was I?
00:49:45I don't know.
00:49:49Emily, this cake is simply delicious.
00:49:51Glad you like it.
00:49:52It's the best you've ever made.
00:49:54This is not our cake.
00:49:55Oh, I forgot.
00:49:56Some cream, Emily, please.
00:49:58Cream.
00:49:59Yes, ma'am.
00:50:03Oh, hello.
00:50:08Shh.
00:50:10No!
00:50:13Shh.
00:50:13Help!
00:50:15Emily!
00:50:17Cosmo!
00:50:19Oh, what in the world are you doing in here?
00:50:21Just sitting, dear.
00:50:23It's chilly outside.
00:50:26But you never used to sit in our icebox.
00:50:29Getting out of a nice warm bed
00:50:31to come and sit in someone's icebox.
00:50:33I don't understand it.
00:50:34Oh, but I do understand it, don't I, Emily?
00:50:37I hope so.
00:50:39That screen came from in here.
00:50:41Hey, look.
00:50:42A prowler.
00:50:43Who are you?
00:50:44I'm Mrs. Topper.
00:50:45Who are you?
00:50:46Mrs. Topper?
00:50:47Where's your husband?
00:50:48In the icebox.
00:50:49Has he got the body with him?
00:50:50Certainly.
00:50:51Under his overcoat.
00:50:52So you're Topper, huh?
00:51:01Would you mind coming out of cold storage?
00:51:03I will not.
00:51:05Say, what's the matter with him?
00:51:06Is the icebox crazy?
00:51:07He's suffering from hallucinations.
00:51:08Oh.
00:51:10You wouldn't by any chance be thinking you were a lamb chop.
00:51:13Now then, what do you mean by stealing in this house in the middle of the night?
00:51:16And what have you done with that girl you had on your lap?
00:51:18Girl on his lap, eh?
00:51:20Oh, a love triangle.
00:51:22Oh, do you really think so, officer?
00:51:24I get it.
00:51:25You sneaked in here to see some gal.
00:51:27Your wife followed.
00:51:28You had to get rid of the dame, so you knocked her off.
00:51:30Yes or no?
00:51:31I did not.
00:51:32Where's the body?
00:51:33I don't know.
00:51:34So you admit there is a body?
00:51:36Yes.
00:51:37I came over here to look for it.
00:51:39Well, how did you know it was here?
00:51:41She told me.
00:51:41She?
00:51:42Who's she?
00:51:43The dead girl.
00:51:44Well, now we get...
00:51:46Wait a minute.
00:51:48How can a dead person talk?
00:51:49I don't know, but this one does.
00:51:52Oh, I mean, I know you won't believe what I'm going to tell you, but...
00:51:56Well, we certainly won't.
00:51:58Where were you when the attempt was made on Miss Carrington's life?
00:52:01In the library, I think.
00:52:02I don't know.
00:52:03Did you or did you not try to stab this young lady?
00:52:06Oh, don't be ridiculous, officer.
00:52:08Cosmo wouldn't stab anybody.
00:52:10He can't even carve a turkey.
00:52:13Now, listen, lady.
00:52:15Somebody kills a dame who talks after she's dead.
00:52:18And the body gets up and walks away.
00:52:21Somebody tried to whittle on this young lady.
00:52:23And I find him hiding in the icebox.
00:52:25You don't predict this.
00:52:27I don't want it.
00:52:28He gets his wish.
00:52:28You mean you're going to arrest him?
00:52:30Well, these ain't exactly charm bracelets, lady.
00:52:35He's got a gun.
00:52:37It's mine!
00:52:38Well, Cosmo will give the man back his gun.
00:52:41Don't do that.
00:52:42Cosmo!
00:52:44Call up somebody!
00:52:45Cosmo, you'll hurt yourself!
00:52:46Don't do that!
00:52:47You'll light up the sticks for this!
00:52:48Stop it!
00:52:49It might go off!
00:52:52Cosmo!
00:52:52Come on!
00:52:59They shouldn't do that!
00:53:00They'll...
00:53:00Go!
00:53:01Let go of me!
00:53:12Let go of me!
00:53:13You shouldn't have made me do that!
00:53:16Do you want to go to jail?
00:53:17No, but we can't go on like this.
00:53:19My wife, the police, what do you suppose they think?
00:53:21They think you're guilty of housebreaking and murder.
00:53:23Yes.
00:53:23Come on, let's find my body.
00:53:24No, because after we do find it, then I will be accused of murdering you.
00:53:27But I've got evidence to prove you're innocent!
00:53:29What evidence?
00:53:29This note I was supposed to have written, Anne, but didn't.
00:53:32Who did?
00:53:33I'll tell you when we find me.
00:53:35Come on.
00:53:36You're tired!
00:53:47How do you think I feel?
00:54:06How do you think I feel?
00:54:36My goodness, what makes it so cold in here?
00:55:03Bless you.
00:55:04You and your husband.
00:55:06When it comes to picking out husbands, Mrs. Topper, you certainly take the cake.
00:55:10I only took a small piece and a little cup of tea.
00:55:12That's no reason we should be locked up in here.
00:55:14Look, Mrs. Topper, I'm not complaining, but I'm a personal maid and not Admiral Burks.
00:55:18Oh, Emily, shut up!
00:55:20We've all got pneumonia.
00:55:21Can't you break down the door?
00:55:22It's as solid as a rock!
00:55:25Come in!
00:55:26Quiet!
00:55:26What's that funny noise?
00:55:28It's my teeth chattering!
00:55:29Well, why don't you put them in your pocket?
00:55:31Oh, that's a screwdriver!
00:55:32You need a screwdriver to get them out?
00:55:34I've got a button hook!
00:55:35Where is it?
00:55:36Home, on my desk.
00:55:37Oh, my.
00:55:38Come on, everybody look around the road.
00:55:39There ought to be something here we can use.
00:55:41Come on.
00:55:42Well, there's nothing in this joint but frozen tomatoes and dead chickens.
00:55:46Look, can you do something with this?
00:55:47Oh, I give up.
00:55:48May I suggest, sir, that you break the glass?
00:55:50What?
00:55:51Break the glass.
00:55:52Okay.
00:55:54You know what good it ought to do?
00:55:55He means the glass in the door, dummy.
00:55:57Okay, but I think you're taking a lot of liberties.
00:55:59I forgot.
00:56:12Now, wait a minute.
00:56:13I'll take charge of this.
00:56:15Riley, you take the upstairs and you take the downstairs.
00:56:17You take this.
00:56:18Personally, I think someone should call the police.
00:56:20Well, I'll take care of that.
00:56:22Check that for fingerprints.
00:56:35Hear that?
00:56:37Yeah.
00:56:48Shh, quiet, Toppy.
00:57:06Don't be nervous.
00:57:07Give me that.
00:57:08Give me that.
00:57:22Andy, where have you been?
00:57:26Boss, that's something I'll never know.
00:57:28You still looking for a body?
00:57:30Yes.
00:57:31It was down there, but it just left.
00:57:34It left?
00:57:35It just put out to sea.
00:57:37That's the truth, boss, but I ain't going back to prove it.
00:57:39Oh, yes, you are.
00:57:42Yes, sir.
00:57:44My, my.
00:57:45The things I get myself into.
00:57:47Come on.
00:57:48Come on.
00:57:56Maybe.
00:57:58Oh, my God.
00:58:28Eddie, you're going to stay right here until we get back.
00:58:33Yes, sir.
00:58:35But don't bet on it unless you get awful good hours.
00:58:50Oh, Tommy, you're terrible at rowing the boat.
00:58:53Get up front and let me do the rowing.
00:58:58Here we go. Hold tight.
00:59:02No, it ain't.
00:59:08No, it ain't.
00:59:14Yes, it is.
00:59:18If you go out, I'm going with you.
00:59:22Hurry. Help me up.
00:59:24Give me your hand.
00:59:25Why do it the hard way?
00:59:26Them's the orders I got from the boss,
00:59:27and them's the orders I'm passing on to you.
00:59:29We're going to do it my way, see?
00:59:31Can a guy ask questions?
00:59:32No.
00:59:33I say we dump her here.
00:59:34Right where we dump Butch and Liverlip.
00:59:36It's out 10 miles and plenty deep.
00:59:37Oh, why not wrap her up in a concrete mud pack
00:59:39and drop her right here?
00:59:40The tide will take her out.
00:59:41That's the boss's orders,
00:59:42and don't argue with me.
00:59:43Go below and get that engine started.
00:59:44Okay.
00:59:45Gale, come here, quick.
00:59:51I'll take her out that's the boss's orders and don't argue with me go below and get that engine started, okay
01:00:11Gail come here quick
01:00:14Here you are in here. Oh dear. I look so uncomfortable
01:00:21Stop the engine we've got to get off. No you lower the boat and I'll take care of them
01:00:51Keep that engine running. I have it running. It's stopped. What's stopping? I don't know
01:01:09You dummy I expect that engine to run with the juice turned off
01:01:13Give me that
01:01:17Get out of the way
01:01:19I
01:01:38Tied it on and leave it on
01:01:49I
01:02:09Didn't do it honest. I didn't
01:02:19I
01:02:42Come on, toppy
01:02:49Well, what are you doing here?
01:02:58If you'd asked me that a second later, you'd have been talking to yourself.
01:03:19What have you got in that boat?
01:03:29The body.
01:03:30That does it.
01:03:31No, you don't.
01:03:32Trying to hide it, huh?
01:03:33No, no, I'm bringing it back.
01:03:36Bringing it back.
01:03:37Well, brother, you've got a lot of questions to answer.
01:03:40I got a hunch it ain't gonna be no quiz program.
01:03:43Go, take them upstairs.
01:03:44All right.
01:03:49Everybody here?
01:03:51Yes, sir, all here.
01:03:53All right.
01:03:54Now, get this and get it straight.
01:03:58Nobody leaves this room unless I say so.
01:04:02Then you, stop chewing that gum.
01:04:04Chewing?
01:04:05I ain't even breathing.
01:04:06Not you, her.
01:04:11I'm sorry, Miss Carrington.
01:04:12I know this is gonna be a bit unpleasant for you, but would you mind stepping in the next
01:04:16room with me?
01:04:19Miss Carrington.
01:04:34I'm going to raise this sheet.
01:04:37See if you can identify this young lady.
01:04:39How long has she been living here?
01:04:59She came here tonight with Miss Carrington.
01:05:00Nice looking, girl.
01:05:06Too bad she had to go so young.
01:05:10She's got awful big feet, though.
01:05:14Who did that?
01:05:16Who did that?
01:05:18Who hit me when I wasn't looking?
01:05:20Was you in that room just now?
01:05:23Not now, then, or ever.
01:05:26Well, don't tell me the joint's haunted.
01:05:28Now, look.
01:05:30I was standing in that room, minding my own business.
01:05:33Just as I say what big feet she's got, I get slapped in the kisser.
01:05:39Who did that?
01:05:40Who went out that door?
01:05:49Nobody.
01:05:50Now, wait a minute.
01:05:50Doors just don't open and shut themselves.
01:05:52Yeah, but that one did.
01:05:55Hey.
01:05:56Who went out that door?
01:05:57Your hoodie.
01:05:58Who?
01:05:58You feel better, dear?
01:05:59Well, she'd be all right if Charlie Chan had let her alone.
01:06:02Sergeant Roberts, I don't like to interfere.
01:06:05But is it necessary to subject my daughter to all this?
01:06:08She's terribly nervous.
01:06:09Won't you, would you please let her go to her room?
01:06:12Nobody leaves this room.
01:06:13Not even me.
01:06:15And that goes for the both of us.
01:06:23Big feet, huh?
01:06:24I'll match mine with his any day.
01:06:31Have another.
01:06:35Don't mind if I do.
01:06:38Innocent men stay home nights.
01:06:40They don't hide in ice boxes.
01:06:42And they don't take dead bodies on boat rides.
01:06:45Why did you kill her?
01:06:46I didn't.
01:06:47That's only one man's opinion.
01:06:50I can prove it.
01:06:52How?
01:06:53Leave me alone in that room for a minute.
01:06:56Oh, I'm not that dumb.
01:06:59Well, that's only one man's opinion, too.
01:07:02Officer, let him have his way.
01:07:03There are no windows in the trophy room.
01:07:05Any ice boxes?
01:07:06No.
01:07:07All right.
01:07:08I'll give you three minutes.
01:07:10If you're not back in this room with a 14-karat alibi,
01:07:13this lady's going to make one of the most charming widows I've ever met.
01:07:16Oh, thank you, officer.
01:07:24Gail.
01:07:25Gail, where are you?
01:07:26Just getting another bottle, Toppy.
01:07:33Be right with you.
01:07:34And you and I'll have a little drink together.
01:07:39Whoops!
01:07:40Catch me!
01:07:41Achoo!
01:07:41Good boy, Toppy.
01:07:45Don't help me.
01:07:49Now you stand up and behave yourself.
01:07:51Sweetie, let me mush your hair.
01:07:54Oh, stop it.
01:07:54Will you stop it?
01:07:55This is no time to be playful.
01:07:56Where's that note?
01:08:00What note?
01:08:01The proof you said you had.
01:08:04Toppy, I want to lie down.
01:08:06I'm sleepy.
01:08:08You can't get sleepy now.
01:08:10You've got me into this, and you've got to get me out of it.
01:08:12Give me a hand.
01:08:13Oh, dear.
01:08:14Here, go on.
01:08:17Toppy, I feel so silly.
01:08:19Quiet!
01:08:20It's like being on low boat in here.
01:08:24Try to walk straight.
01:08:26Get in.
01:08:27Oh, look at the pretty couch.
01:08:30There.
01:08:30Oh.
01:08:33Oh.
01:08:34This feels so good.
01:08:37Toppy, put my feet up.
01:08:39Oh.
01:08:44Gail, this is serious.
01:08:46Where is that note?
01:08:47I don't know.
01:08:48Try to think what you did with it, or I'll be arrested.
01:08:51Put a cold towel on my head, sweetie, and I'll try and think.
01:08:58Honey, don't, please.
01:09:00Just try to pull yourself together, will you?
01:09:09Where are they?
01:09:10Oh, yeah.
01:09:18You've got a little headache, you know.
01:09:24Have you got an aspirin on you?
01:09:28No.
01:09:30But I'll get you one.
01:09:36Well, that settles it.
01:09:38That guy's as nutty as a candy bar.
01:09:41Send for a straitjacket.
01:09:42Make it two.
01:09:43One for me.
01:09:47Get up.
01:09:50Now, where's that note?
01:09:56There it is, down there.
01:09:57Oh.
01:09:58Oh.
01:10:03What does this prove?
01:10:05I didn't write it.
01:10:06Who did?
01:10:07Lily and the housekeeper.
01:10:08Here's a sample of her handwriting.
01:10:14They're identical.
01:10:15Mm-hmm.
01:10:17Then she must be in on it.
01:10:18Mm-hmm.
01:10:19Sit down.
01:10:24You admit you wrote that letter, don't you?
01:10:27Yes.
01:10:28And this is the note you found in the murdered girl's room?
01:10:31Yes.
01:10:32Then how do you account for they're both being in the same handwriting?
01:10:36Uh, I don't know.
01:10:37Listen, sister.
01:10:39It looks like you're all set for a first-degree murder rap.
01:10:42Of course, if you come clean, we could go a little easier on you.
01:10:45I wasn't alone in this.
01:10:47I wrote the note, but I didn't kill her.
01:10:49Who did?
01:10:49Who did?
01:10:57Come on, who did it?
01:10:59It, it was...
01:11:00Turn on the lights.
01:11:04Quick.
01:11:05Come on, now.
01:11:07There's a pickpocket in the joint.
01:11:09Whoever stole that witness put her back.
01:11:11Jim, search the cellar.
01:11:12Search the icebox.
01:11:13Search the attic.
01:11:13Where's the attic?
01:11:14Search me.
01:11:15I've been in politics ten years,
01:11:17and I've never seen anything as balled up as this is.
01:11:22Darryl, guard that front door.
01:11:24Don't let anybody in or out.
01:11:25What's down there?
01:11:26That's the kitchen.
01:11:27If I find that dame in the icebox, I'll resign.
01:11:30Then I'll drop dead.
01:11:32Oh, come, come now.
01:11:34Brace up.
01:11:34Brace up.
01:11:36I'd appreciate it so much if you'd stay here with my daughter.
01:11:39I want to talk to Sajd Roberts.
01:11:41That'll be a pleasure, sir.
01:11:42Come, come.
01:11:50Now I got...
01:11:51Oh, you're a horrible man.
01:11:53I see no reason for us to stay in this awful house
01:11:55while you go around opening and shutting doors.
01:11:57Quiet, fool.
01:11:58I will not be quiet.
01:12:00I'm so nervous I could scream.
01:12:01In fact, I think I will.
01:12:06That's fun, isn't it?
01:12:10Come on, let's do it together.
01:12:14Stay here.
01:12:14That sounds like my wife.
01:12:19Come on, let's do it together.
01:12:49Miss Carrington.
01:12:59Miss Carrington.
01:13:01Miss Carrington.
01:13:03Miss Carrington.
01:13:04Well, where is she?
01:13:08She was here a second ago.
01:13:09Well, what's happened now?
01:13:11Miss Carrington disappeared.
01:13:12Well, I left her with him.
01:13:14Say, what is this?
01:13:15The fun house at the beach?
01:13:16Everybody that talks to you disappears.
01:13:19Now I'm talking to you.
01:13:20I suppose I'll turn up missing.
01:13:22That is the best suggestion you've made tonight.
01:13:24Well, that's all right.
01:13:26Don't you ever park near a fireplug.
01:13:29As for you...
01:13:29Officer, I want to go home.
01:13:33I'll tell you when to go, and I'll tell you where to go.
01:13:37Sit down.
01:13:38Gail, Anne has disappeared.
01:13:52Disappeared?
01:13:53Entirely.
01:13:53Well, we've got to find her.
01:13:55Police won't let me out of their sight.
01:13:57Well, they can't stop me.
01:13:58Huh?
01:14:01Don't go out there.
01:14:02Mrs. Topper's just outside.
01:14:04I'll fix that.
01:14:05Well, where is she?
01:14:16Well, where is who, dear?
01:14:18You know perfectly well who, I mean.
01:14:20That girl.
01:14:21But there wasn't any.
01:14:22Oh, yes, there was.
01:14:23I heard you both in that room.
01:14:25Pardon me, Mrs. Topper, but it's getting kind of late.
01:14:28Can't we settle this at home?
01:14:30Edward, don't interrupt.
01:14:31Yes, ma'am.
01:14:31Cosmo, I should think after 20 years of married life, you wouldn't try to deceive me.
01:14:36Why, I remember our honeymoon in Atlantic City.
01:14:39You promised me you'd never look at another woman.
01:14:41Mr. Topper!
01:14:52You better keep away from me or you'll be a pope.
01:14:54You better keep away from me or you'll be a father.
01:15:12That's right.
01:15:13You better keep away from me.
01:15:14You better keep away from me or you'll be a girl.

01:17:39Just be quiet, will you be?
01:17:41Well, if that's the way you feel about it, I won't say another word.
01:18:02Cosmo, what a charming idea!
01:18:05We should have one of these in our house for weekend guests.
01:18:09Yelling!
01:18:12Clara, for heaven's sake, get out of there!
01:18:24Okay, you take it down this way and you go upstairs.
01:18:26If you find anything, I'll be right here.
01:18:28Boy, what a night!
01:18:30I've never been on such a merry-go-round in my life!
01:18:33Oh, I sure needed that one. Toppy, I just saw the murderer in the cellar.
01:18:40Who is he?
01:18:41I don't know, I couldn't see his face, but he was all muffled up in a big black cloak.
01:18:44Well, whoever he is, he was in that room when the housekeeper disappeared.
01:18:48Because I found a contraption in the fireplace that operates the chair she was sitting on.
01:18:51Toppy!
01:18:52What?
01:18:53We've got to make him convict himself!
01:18:55How?
01:18:56You sit in that chair and tell them that you know who the murderer is!
01:18:59Me? Sitting in that chair?
01:19:01Well, I'll disappear too!
01:19:03Oh, no, not if you keep your eye on the fireplace.
01:19:06And the first one that makes a move toward it, that's the one we're after.
01:19:10Oh.
01:19:13You're not afraid?
01:19:15What makes you think I'm not?
01:19:18I simply want to tell all I know.
01:19:20Well, that shouldn't take very long.
01:19:22Sit down!
01:19:23Now cut out the stalling!
01:19:25Who killed Gail Richards? Pick him up!
01:19:27In the first place, the one they wanted to kill was Miss Carrington.
01:19:35Well, never mind who they were after!
01:19:37Who done it?
01:19:38The murderer.
01:19:43Didn't know he killed the wrong girl.
01:19:45When he found out, he was panicky and hid the body.
01:19:48You see, Doctor, I did not have hallucinations.
01:19:51Very interesting.
01:19:54So what are you watching that fireplace for?
01:19:56Who do you expect? Santa Claus?
01:19:58Come on! Who done it?
01:20:01The housekeeper knew.
01:20:02She knew too much.
01:20:04But she wasn't the one.
01:20:07When she was about to confess,
01:20:10she disappeared from this very chair.
01:20:14And the person who caused her disappearance
01:20:16was standing right beside this fireplace when it happened.
01:20:20What do you say, Doc?
01:20:21He's looking right straight at you.
01:20:23The man's mad.
01:20:24I was nowhere near the fireplace when it happened.
01:20:28I was over there.
01:20:31Rama, you were standing here by the fireplace.
01:20:34You're mistaken, Doctor Jeris.
01:20:36I was standing by the library door.
01:20:38Now, wait a minute.
01:20:40Who was standing by the fireplace when the housekeeper disappeared?
01:20:43Why, Father, you were there.
01:20:47Why, yes.
01:20:50Come to think of it, I was.
01:20:52Mr. Carrington, would you mind sitting in that chair?
01:20:56Of course not.
01:20:57Of course not.
01:21:18Hands up!
01:21:19Get him up, all of you.
01:21:20Get him up!
01:21:21Get him up!
01:21:28Get him up!
01:21:29Father!
01:21:30Never mind that.
01:21:31Put your hands up, too.
01:21:33And if you've got any sense,
01:21:35you won't move a muscle.
01:21:37You see?
01:21:38I told you it was him.
01:21:39Sergeant Roberts, it's been a pleasure to do business with a man of your intelligence.
01:22:09I'm so happy.
01:22:10Say hi.
01:22:11Who's in the place?
01:22:12I'm so happy.
01:22:13Come on!
01:22:14Know what you're doing?
01:22:15How much do you do?
01:22:16Harry!
01:22:17He's been in one of your hands.
01:22:18Nine of his feet.
01:22:19You won't be.
01:22:20You die.
01:22:21You die.
01:22:22She's been in love!
01:22:23Lord!
01:22:24He's finally done for you.
01:22:25You can't take care of it!
01:22:27I'm so happy to get him.
01:22:29I'm so happy to be here.
01:22:30You can still enjoy yourself if you had any more.
01:22:32Father, you'll stay in love.
01:22:34Take care of it!
01:22:36And if you're in love, he's all ready to be a little guy,
01:22:37Take your hands off that wheel.
01:23:01Don't be a backseat driver.
01:23:02Sit down.
01:23:07That was a close one.
01:23:20Hold tight.
01:23:35Here we go again.
01:24:05Let's go.
01:24:07Let's go.
01:24:09Let's go.
01:24:11Let's go.
01:24:13Let's go.
01:24:15I don't know.
01:24:45Well, it serves you right.
01:25:01Oh, I'd hate to be in your shoes.
01:25:03First murder and now reckless driving.
01:25:05The recording angel will certainly throw the book at you.
01:25:09Say, what are you doing here?
01:25:11Steady, old boy.
01:25:12I beg your pardon.
01:25:13Now, why did you try to kill your daughter?
01:25:16Oh, don't be silly.
01:25:17I'm not Anne's father.
01:25:19Who are you?
01:25:20I'm Walter Harburg, Carrington's partner.
01:25:24Carrington was killed in a mine cave-in.
01:25:25So that's it.
01:25:27Why, you ghost of a double-crossing crook.
01:25:30Anne must know about this.
01:25:31Too late now.
01:25:32Oh, no.
01:25:33We're stuck here till she finds out.
01:25:34And when she knows the truth, I can go to heaven and you can go to...
01:25:38Give me a pencil quick and a piece of paper.
01:25:40Oh, wait a minute.
01:25:41Wait a minute.
01:25:44Take a letter.
01:25:46Dear Anne, I am not your father.
01:25:48Period.
01:25:48Well, if he was looking for an accident, he sure found it.
01:26:07This is going to cost him his driver's license, you know that, don't you?
01:26:10Come on.
01:26:10Here, Toppy, give this to Anne.
01:26:21I'm sorry about your father, Miss Carrington.
01:26:22Wait a minute.
01:26:23He wasn't her father.
01:26:24Miss Carrington, this is for you.
01:26:31Well, what's this all about?
01:26:32Oh, here, read it.
01:26:33Or am I expecting too much?
01:26:36Where did you get this note?
01:26:37It flew into my hand.
01:26:41Notes that fly.
01:26:43Fathers that ain't fathers.
01:26:45Leaping chairs.
01:26:46Come on, let's get out of here before the trees start talking.
01:26:50Edward?
01:26:51Edward, where are you?
01:26:53Here I am.
01:26:56And here I go.
01:26:58Edward, come back here.
01:26:59Not me.
01:27:00From now on, I used to be your chauffeur.
01:27:02But you were to drive us home.
01:27:03Not in that car.
01:27:04Enough is enough, and that's what I've had a abundancy of.
01:27:09Very well.
01:27:10If that's the way you feel about it, Emily will drive us.
01:27:13And Cosmo, this time I'll sit on your lap.
01:27:16All right, darling.
01:27:17Emily, do you know how to drive?
01:27:19No, ma'am.
01:27:21Isn't it exciting?
01:27:29Thanks, Eddie.
01:27:30You've been a great help.
01:27:33Sorry I had to dump you in the water, old boy.
01:27:35I have to dump you in, Jed.
01:27:36I'm out of here.
01:27:38I'm out of here.
01:27:53THE END
