00:00I want to see you next time.
00:30I don't know.
01:00Hello?
01:02Who's there?
01:18Alexander?
01:20What are you doing here?
01:22Seems an urgent night to come to this address.
01:24As did I.
01:26Condemned asylum.
01:28Nicer places to meet.
01:32Welcome to my office.
01:38Miss Scarlett.
01:40Inspector Blake.
01:42Go appreciate your punctuality.
01:44Miss Scott?
01:46Yes.
01:48That's what you call me, isn't it?
01:50I use so many names, it's hard to keep track.
01:52Oh, I do apologize for the surroundings.
01:56What they lack in comfort, they make up for indiscretion.
02:00You've summoned us here on government business.
02:02Please.
02:04As you know, my department deals with international espionage, not murder investigations.
02:08You will have read about the death of Sir Joseph Milner, undersecretary at the Foreign Office.
02:14On the face of it, there are no suspicious circumstances.
02:18But, Sir Joseph spent much of his time moving between the foreign embassies.
02:22So I am duty bound to make sure there is no fair play.
02:26Your assistance in this matter will, of course, be rewarded with a generous increase in manpower and resources in your next budget review.
02:36And for you, Miss Scarlett, shall we say, double your usual fee?
02:42In return, I want a full written report on the circumstances of Sir Joseph's death.
02:48For my eyes only, of course.
02:51This investigation is strictly off the books.
02:55Do whatever you need to do.
02:57Just, um, be discreet.
03:02Oh, there is one more thing.
03:05That unpleasant business of the young lady caught spying around Scotland Yard means there will be some changes coming down the line.
03:12All officers will be made to sign a declaration of interest, outlining any relationships with those they deal with in the line of duty.
03:21So, given the two of you are now romantically involved, this will be the last time you work together.
03:33Drink?
03:46Make it double.
03:52We knew we couldn't keep it quiet forever.
03:56We'll be fine.
03:59I guess, but my business may not.
04:02Losing Scotland Yard as a client.
04:03There, I was thinking you're worried about us.
04:08I'm teasing you, Eliza.
04:10Don't, you know, I don't like it.
04:12I know how hard you've worked to build your business.
04:15I really am sorry.
04:18I know you are.
04:23To our last case.
04:26Our last case.
04:27Whatever the future brings, you will prevail.
04:32And if you don't, you can always blame me.
04:35Thank you, Mr. Victor Blake, I appreciate it.
04:37Well, if this is to be our last case, we'd better make it count.
04:56How do we investigate the death of a government minister discreetly?
05:02We tread carefully and use people we can trust.
05:07I trust Clarence with my life as well as my ledgers.
05:11And someone else comes to mind too.
05:12Sir Joseph Milner was a senior minister at the Foreign Office, right-hand man to the Foreign Secretary.
05:40Yes, I read about him.
05:42He died from a hunting accident.
05:44The official story is he fell from his horse, cut his leg, the wound got infected.
05:49He developed a fever, dying a few days later.
05:51Official story?
05:52That's not what happened.
05:54That's what we intend to find out.
05:56Oh, you think perhaps he was murdered?
05:57What makes you think that?
05:58Well, we can't go into detail.
06:00Not yet, at least.
06:00Sir Joseph, mixed at the highest levels of Parliament, Whitehall, any number of foreign embassies, we cannot simply turn up and start asking questions.
06:08Which is why we'll have a cover.
06:10We'll say we're investigating a spate of street thefts in Westminster and Mayfair.
06:14My father did this once when his prime suspect was from a powerful family.
06:17And it worked?
06:19With a little help from me.
06:20The area of our bogus street thefts will include Park Lane, where Sir Joseph lived, as well as the government offices in Whitehall and the embassies he frequented.
06:32We need you two to poke around at the areas that require, well, less conventional methods.
06:38Myself and Inspector Blake will deal with the face-to-face interviews, gaining access to the premises to see what we can learn about Sir Joseph.
06:44And to avoid suspicion, we'll have an increased uniform presence on the streets, just as we would in a genuine investigation.
06:49So this is to stay strictly between the four of us?
06:52Five. I have a man on the inside.
06:54The robberies took place in Mayfair and Westminster, so there will be extra patrols on the street.
06:59Anyone who looks suspicious, or anyone who thinks may have seen something, pull them over, see what they have to say.
07:03Yeah, right, you are.
07:04I have a question, sir.
07:06I haven't heard anything about these robberies.
07:08Er, me neither. Where are the incident reports?
07:12There's a backlog in the clerical office.
07:15No doubt the incident reports will be in process as we speak.
07:19And those two case fires you wanted.
07:23Thanks, mate.
07:24Do you have a moment, Mrs Potts?
07:26Of course, Detective Willows.
07:32I need some incident reports.
07:34Oh, if you just give me the reference numbers, I can find them for you right away.
07:37It's...
07:38It's a little more complicated than that.
07:41A delicate matter requires the utmost discretion.
07:43Ladies, listen up.
07:50There's been a spate of street thefts, and Detective Willows is making this a top priority.
07:55So we need to stop what we're doing and type up the incident report right away.
08:00I have heard of no robberies on the street.
08:27It was mostly in the neighbouring area.
08:30But the Metropolitan Police like to be thorough.
08:33In truth, it is no surprise that I have heard nothing.
08:36My employer died last week, and I have barely left this house.
08:40There's so much to do.
08:41I'm very sorry to hear that, sir.
08:49It was a shock to the entire staff.
08:52Sir Joseph was a good man.
08:55This particular gang liked to target wealthy gentlemen and follow them to their residence.
09:01Such evil in this world.
09:04I couldn't agree more, Mr Lawrence.
09:05Perhaps you could summarise Sir Joseph's daily routine in the event the thieves had been following him.
09:13Sir Joseph would go to Whitehall to work, and then to various embassies around the city.
09:20He'd come back late with...
09:23With...
09:26He enjoyed the company of ladies.
09:29That is all I shall say.
09:35I visited at least a dozen of the embassies, but could find nothing of interest about Sir Joseph.
09:45Seemed affable enough.
09:47What did they say?
09:49Quiet.
09:50Well-mannered.
09:51Not given to voicing strong opinions.
09:54He was a politician.
09:55Exactly.
09:57Butler said much the same.
09:58Although there was one thing of interest.
10:00Apparently, Sir Joseph liked female company.
10:03Lovers or ladies of the night?
10:06He wouldn't say.
10:07I tried to press him, but he wouldn't give details.
10:10He may wish to preserve his reputation.
10:13No one wants a butler who gossips.
10:16No, it was something else.
10:18Something I can't put my finger on.
10:26What?
10:29Nothing.
10:30What?
10:31What?
10:33I'll miss this.
10:37Us working together.
10:44So you were saying?
10:46We need to see the coroner's report into Sir Joseph's death.
10:50I can't request a far from the mortuary of a court of suspicion.
10:54We need someone that we can trust.
10:57I trust Barnabas Potts.
10:58He's adamant he won't return to work until Mr. Wormsley has apologized.
11:02God knows Ivy's tried.
11:04There's no one else who might persuade him?
11:09Perhaps Mr. Potts isn't the one who needs persuading.
11:11Mr. Wormsley?
11:26Mr. Wormsley?
11:26Yes?
11:27So good to finally meet you.
11:31I do feel like I know you already.
11:33I've been asking around about you and learnt a great deal.
11:37Where you go?
11:38What you do?
11:40Who will you meet?
11:41It's all down here.
11:47A complete list of everything you've been up to.
11:52Perhaps Mrs. Wormsley might be interested in a coffee too.
11:59What do you want?
12:01I want to talk to you about a friend of mine.
12:04Mr. Potts, it is grand to see you back.
12:23It's good to be back, Detective Willows.
12:26Mr. Worms' change of heart was most unexpected.
12:29But to his credit, he apologized.
12:31Several times, in fact, most profusely.
12:33He insisted I return to work immediately and practically dragged me from the house.
12:38And I know why.
12:40You do?
12:42The place is in total disarray and in need of urgent attention.
12:46But as I always say...
12:48The world is going to hell in a handcart.
12:50If you want something doing, ask a busy person.
12:53Well, it is lucky for me that you're here, Mr. Potts,
12:55because there's a coroner's report I need to see.
12:57Now, the deceased in question...
12:59Well, let's just say it's a confidential matter.
13:01I'm one that demands your utmost discretion.
13:14I got your message.
13:16Is this him?
13:17He's been delivering coal to the Joseph's house twice a week for the past three years.
13:21I thought he could give us some insight into the minister's domestic staff.
13:25This gentleman, for want of a better word, has a criminal record for assault.
13:30He broke a man's arm in an arm wrestling match.
13:33Well, he's a big man.
13:36No, he didn't win.
13:37He lost.
13:37That's why he broke his opponent's arm.
13:40But he failed to declare his criminal record when he took a job delivering coal to a government minister.
13:46I thought he could give us useful leverage when we question it.
13:49A man like that won't take too kindly to leverage.
13:52Well, just to confirm, should this turn into a physical confrontation, that is very much your department, not mine.
14:08Leave it with me.
14:11I'll pay you up and shut up.
14:14It's about to start.
14:15Come on.
14:16Come on.
14:16Come on.
14:46I have no match for you, my friend.
14:55Drink?
14:57That would be more swell, Carl.
15:12Mrs. Potts.
15:13I just wanted to thank you for your assistance and for your discretion.
15:18Oh, it's my pleasure, Detective Willows.
15:20In all honesty, I quite enjoyed it.
15:22Oh, while you're here, the applicant's new office manager, they need security clearance.
15:27The powers that be have been extra cautious after what happened with Miss Summers.
15:30Oh, I am sorry, that was insensitive of me.
15:34No.
15:36I'm the one who should apologise.
15:37I should have seen through her.
15:39No.
15:40You weren't the only one taken in by her.
15:42It wasn't your fault.
15:44I hope the disciplinary board agree.
15:46You're one of the best officers we have, Detective Willows.
15:49I'm sure they'll see that.
15:53Thank you, Mrs. Potts.
16:02So here's what we know.
16:04Sir Joseph liked the women, and his butler slightly shifty.
16:09Is that it?
16:10Afraid so.
16:12Although I could also imagine that you look beautiful today.
16:15Today?
16:16So not yesterday?
16:18Has anyone ever told you you can be rather demanding?
16:21Constantly.
16:25Oh, please tell us you have something.
16:27I spoke to the man who delivers it cool to Sir Joseph's house.
16:31After a few drinks, he got loose-lipped.
16:34Told me there's a butler there, a Mr. Lawrence.
16:36I spoke to him today.
16:39Apparently, none of the other servants like him.
16:43Rumour has it, Sir Joseph accused him of theft,
16:47and planned to dismiss him.
16:49But then, the minister opt and croaked it.
16:55And there's something else?
16:58Even though he lives in a servant's quarters,
17:00Mr. Lawrence rents a lodging room in Whitechapel.
17:04Do you have the address?
17:04Of course he does.
17:21Mr. Lawrence?
17:22Thank you, Inspector Blake.
17:36Ladies first.
17:39Thank you, Inspector Blake.
17:40Mr. Lawrence.
17:53Thank you, Inspector.
17:55Thank you, Inspector.
17:57Thank you, Inspector.
17:57Thank you, Inspector.
17:58How is he?
18:11The doctor isn't sure what's wrong with him.
18:13He has a fever, breathing problems, and muscle spasms in his neck and jaw.
18:18Sounds like tetanus.
18:20They're considering it.
18:21You can't see any wounds on his body that would trigger the infection.
18:24Mr. Garland?
18:25Sir.
18:26I have the corridor's report.
18:28Mr. Joseph.
18:28It's believed that the cut he sustained falling from his horse may have caused an infection.
18:33The cause of death was given as cardiac arrest, most likely due to tetanus.
18:37Sir Joseph and his butler both were suspected tetanus.
18:41Bit odd, isn't it?
18:43Given that it's not infectious.
18:45Odd and unlikely.
18:46Mr. Potts said there was something else that caused those symptoms.
18:50Strictly poisoning.
18:51Mr. Wormsley was most keen to hear all about my ideas for improving the mortuary.
19:02I must say he's a changed man.
19:04Oh, it's good indeed to be back.
19:08But alas, I shall have to withdraw my application to be office manager at Scotland Yard.
19:13I'm so sorry to disappoint you, my Jewel.
19:16I know how much you were relishing us working together.
19:20Scotland Yard's loss is the mortuary's gain, Barnabas.
19:24Thank you, my beloved.
19:29Right.
19:30I have an extremely long to-do list.
19:33This great city of ours seems to increase its supply of the dead each and every day.
19:38But as I always say...
19:39If you want something doing, ask a busy person.
19:41No.
19:42The world is going to head in the handcart.
19:44It's nice to have my happy Barnabas back again.
19:51Now we just need to work on you.
19:54I'm fine.
19:56Then why does your face tell me otherwise?
19:58You'd be very quiet.
20:06There are changes coming at Scotland Yard.
20:09Inspector Blake will have to declare our relationship and we will no longer be able to work together.
20:14Well, I suppose it couldn't stay secret forever.
20:19Yes, but losing Scotland Yard as a client will be a loss indeed.
20:24When you were a little girl...
20:25Please don't say it.
20:26You don't know what I was going to say.
20:27When I was a little girl, I had a similar problem.
20:29I overcame that problem and learned a lesson I can use as an adult.
20:33I wasn't going to say that.
20:34Yes, you were.
20:36How many formative experiences can one child have?
20:40I wish you were still a child.
20:41I put you over my knee for being so rude.
20:44You know a gentleman covers his mouth when he yawns?
21:11A gentleman doesn't stay up all night doing background checks.
21:17What did you find?
21:20None.
21:20Ah, Sir Joseph's household staff were clean.
21:29I'm getting too old for this.
21:32Are you taking a nap?
21:33In here?
21:34Yes.
21:34What if you stop talking?
21:39This is a place of work, not a lodging house.
21:41I think I found something.
21:52Just before he died, a large transfer of money was made from Sir Joseph's bank account to a small German bank in the city.
22:02We need to find out who this bank account belongs to.
22:08Come along.
22:10No time to rest.
22:14Hurry up!
22:15It was here Mr. Lawrence collapsed, so I would wager it was poison.
22:24Someone would use strychnine as a poison of choice.
22:28I imagine they'd put it in food or drink.
22:30The question is, who would want to poison the butler and his employer?
22:43I almost told Sophia about us last night.
22:47Well, almost.
22:48I'd like to do it together.
22:49I hope she takes it well.
22:54She's certainly very fond of you.
22:56She thinks you're funny.
22:58Funny?
22:59Is it odd?
23:00Funny isn't amusing.
23:02Although you're a little odd.
23:16Alexander?
23:19That's an awful lot of watches for one minute.
23:23Especially for someone on a butler's wage.
23:25What's this?
23:28Calling cards.
23:32Countess Polchek.
23:34Russian embassy.
23:41There has been a recent spate of robberies in the area, Ambassador Polchek.
23:45I have heard nothing of these robberies of which we speak.
23:52The thieves have been targeting ladies mostly, which is why Miss Scarlet is helping Scotland Yard with our inquiries.
23:57During our investigations, we were able to recover some of the stolen items.
24:01One of which is a silver cardholder belonging to Countess Polchek.
24:06Is she a relative of yours?
24:11She's my wife.
24:14But I have no knowledge of her being robbed.
24:18Well, perhaps we could speak to her.
24:20She's not here.
24:22Do you know when she'll be back?
24:23My wife and I, we have parted ways.
24:32She has returned to Russia.
24:34That is all I wish to say on the matter.
24:36It's not our intention to cause you embarrassment or distress, sir.
24:42But could you give us a sense of your wife's movements in the last few weeks?
24:49I suppose if I don't tell you, some gossiping servant will.
24:57She had been seeing a lover.
25:00Sir Joseph Milner.
25:01I can only assume that the calling cards were stolen from his residence.
25:10You are aware Sir Joseph passed away last week?
25:13I am.
25:14And for full disclosure, I did visit him a few days before he died.
25:20I was going to warn him to stay away from my wife.
25:23But when I arrived, he was outside his house,
25:28in the middle of some kind of argument.
25:31What kind of argument?
25:34He was on the street with two men.
25:38They seemed frustrated with him.
25:41One started shouting.
25:43I couldn't understand what they were saying.
25:46It was not in English.
25:48What language was it?
25:50It was, I believe, German.
25:53German.
25:53German.
25:53German.
25:53German.
26:01Name and address of the account holder that Sir Joseph made payments to.
26:09How did you get that?
26:13Good job and charisma.
26:16All right, fine.
26:17I bribe the teller.
26:18The account belongs to a Mr. Klaus Lang.
26:21He's been visiting the bank every week to withdraw 100 pounds on each visit.
26:27Always on the same day, always at the same time, and always with an associate.
26:30So, you pay a visit to this address.
26:33I shall head back to the office to carry on digging into Sir Joseph's finances.
26:39What?
26:41None.
26:44You're impressed, aren't you?
26:46I can tell.
26:49Perhaps.
26:49Sir Joseph did not pay well.
27:07I've no regrets about stealing from him.
27:11One of the items you stole was a silver case containing the calling cards of the Russian ambassador's wife.
27:17She left her bag at the house one evening.
27:19You are aware they were having an affair?
27:22Of course.
27:23She wasn't the first.
27:24Believe me.
27:27What of these two German men Sir Joseph was arguing with the day before he died?
27:32I was not there.
27:33It was my day off.
27:39Talk us through the hours before you became ill.
27:42Everything you did.
27:46I finished work about nine o'clock.
27:47Then went back to my lodging room.
27:51I needed some money that I'd kept there.
27:54I rested a while.
27:56Smoked a pipe.
27:58Then, the next thing I remember, I was gasping for breath and everything went black.
28:03Where did you get the tobacco from?
28:07It was from a pouch I stole from Sir Joseph.
28:09Mr. Potts, Barnabas, I'm here because I have a theory and I'm in need of your advice.
28:34Well.
28:35And yes, I am aware that I have not given 24 hours' notice of my arrival.
28:39And yes, I am aware that there is a strict protocol.
28:41Oh, protocol be damned.
28:43You're always welcome here, Eliza.
28:45Come in.
28:48Come in.
28:48Strickling would usually be found in the stomach and intestines of a cadaver, assuming it had been ingested, which is the most common form of poisoning.
29:03What if you inhaled it?
29:06Say, two tobacco?
29:06Oh, yes.
29:09That would work.
29:10Rather rapidly, too.
29:12Of course, the expert in such matters is Mr. Wormsley.
29:16He seems rather on age recently.
29:18Perhaps the joy of my return has overwhelmed him.
29:22Well, I'd rather we get this conversation to ourselves.
29:25My questions are related to a rather highly confidential case, one which myself and Inspector Blake were like your opinion, and yours alone.
29:33Inspector Blake asked for me, personally.
29:35He did?
29:35Then I'm at your disposal.
29:44We shall start with the basics of toxicology.
29:48Dosage, absorption, exposure.
29:59Pull out anyone with a German background, particularly those with convictions for violent crime.
30:04Mrs. Potts, you take the A's, willows, the B's.
30:12And we keep going till we run out of alphabet.
30:16This is going to be thirsty work.
30:22How about I organise a nice cup of tea for us all?
30:24Oh, that sounds like a very sensible plan, Mrs. Potts.
30:28Right.
30:36I understand the disciplinary board wrote to you.
30:39Yes, sir.
30:40Hearing's in a couple of days.
30:42How are you feeling about it all?
30:43I haven't slept in a week.
30:46I haven't eaten much either.
30:49My sister says I'm like a bear with a sore head.
30:54Apart from that, I'm doing fine, sir.
30:57I'll be there to speak for you.
30:59In the meantime, try not to dwell on it.
31:01My sister also said that.
31:02Sounds like a wise woman, detected by this.
31:07I wanted to give you an update on the case.
31:10Was Sir Joseph murdered?
31:14I believe so, yes.
31:16You have evidence?
31:18We're working on it.
31:20Inspector Blake and I will have a full report for you soon.
31:27Are you in love with him?
31:30Pardon?
31:31It's a simple question.
31:33And one that bears no relevance to the investigation.
31:36I'll take that as a yes.
31:37So, may I give you some advice?
31:40As two women working in the underbelly of this great city,
31:44I am sure we face similar challenges.
31:46One of which being loneliness.
31:49And of course, each man carries his own merits
31:53when it comes to passing the short amount of time we have on this earth.
31:57But to love someone fully,
32:01completely,
32:02that would be a mistake.
32:09For a woman,
32:10financial independence is everything.
32:14Do not make the mistake
32:16of trusting in a man.
32:18Any man.
32:20They will always put
32:22their own needs above ours.
32:25Without exception.
32:26It's a rather bleak view.
32:32The one that I don't share.
32:39Yes, you do.
32:39And I have to leave.
32:52Yep, yep.
32:55Any man?
32:55Yep.
32:56Yep, yep.
33:02Yep, yep.
34:02I assume one of you is Klaus-Land, an account holder at the Bank of Deutschland.
34:14They contain her by the Geldfonds, Sir Josifer Haltenhardt.
34:18I win.
34:26Gentlemen.
34:34Gentlemen.
34:36Hmm.
34:46Your address was given to the Bank of Deutschland as a contact for an account Sir Joseph Milner was paying into.
35:00Why do you have a photograph of Sir Joseph Superior, Lord Powell, the Foreign Secretary?
35:12I believe my associate here speaks a little German.
35:18Do I have that right?
35:22You do, Inspector Blake.
35:26So, would you be so kind as to tell these gentlemen the following?
35:32If they do not talk, they will be charged with Sir Joseph Milner's murder.
35:40The penalty for which is death by hanging.
35:44I don't need to translate, Inspector.
35:52They understand perfectly.
35:54What do you want to know?
36:02Why did Sir Joseph hire you?
36:06They were hired to kill his superior, Lord Powell, the Foreign Secretary.
36:12If they are to be believed, they were given very little information.
36:16Not even a reason why.
36:20They were waiting for Sir Joseph to make contact, but they didn't know he was dead.
36:25The most incompetent assassins I have ever come across.
36:29It doesn't make sense that Sir Joseph would hire such fools for such a high-risk operation.
36:33No, it does not.
36:35None of this makes sense.
36:37How did you get on at the mortuary?
36:39According to Mr. Pops, if someone wished to lace tobacco with strychnine,
36:45they would first need to dissolve the strychnine in alcohol, then soak the tobacco in the solution.
36:49But these days, it's harder than ever to get your hands on it.
36:53Particularly the concentrated amounts that you need to kill someone.
36:57But you could extract it from rat poison.
37:00You just need very large quantities.
37:02And no pharmacy would be allowed to sell such amounts?
37:05Well, exactly.
37:06You need to get it from a specialised pharmaceutical company.
37:08Which is what Mr. Pops does to keep the rats under control at the mortuary.
37:11We need to pay a visit to that company, find out who else they supply.
37:14Already done.
37:15Five businesses that receive bulk deliveries are rat poison.
37:23You and Moses went through the list. Willows, you're with me.
37:25Let's see if a few hours in the cells have made our German friends even more cooperative.
37:30They areustom
37:33The foreman said this business closed down years ago.
37:50Deliveries are forwarded onto another premises.
37:54I wrote down the address.
37:58All right, spit it out.
38:01What?
38:02Something is on your mind.
38:05Someone just gave me some I wanted advice.
38:12Never listen to advice.
38:16Not even mine.
38:19So where do the foreman say to go?
38:26Find Inspector Blake, tell him to meet me at this address.
38:29Regently.
38:30You recognize the players?
38:31I do.
38:33I do.
38:33I do.
38:33I do.
38:35I do.
38:35I do.
38:36I do.
38:36I do.
38:37I do.
38:37I do.
38:38I do.
38:38I do.
38:38I do.
38:39I do.
38:39I do.
38:40I do.
38:40I do.
38:40I do.
38:40I do.
38:41I do.
38:41I do.
39:12All right, boysen.
39:32Good evening, Miss Conard.
39:37It was you who killed Sir Joseph.
39:42Inspector Blake is on his way.
39:47We won't cover this up if that's what you're thinking.
39:50Cover it up.
39:52I want quite the opposite.
39:53I want a full written report handed in to the superintendent at Scotland Yard.
39:59I don't understand.
40:01There are many in our government that believe that Germany will soon be a threat to the national interest.
40:09Sir Joseph was one of them.
40:10But his superior, the foreign secretary, did not agree.
40:13Which is why Sir Joseph hired two lower-level assassins to kill him.
40:18Their only qualification is that they were German.
40:19When it was discovered they were German, it would have forced England into war with Germany.
40:28War makes money for those in high places, regardless of the cost of human life.
40:34My conscience would not allow such a thing.
40:36So you hired Inspector Blake and I to get the evidence in black and white?
40:44My hope is that your report will be read by the few decent men left in the upper echelons of government.
40:51I want them to know what Sir Joseph had planned and why I killed him.
40:55You acted alone?
41:01If my superiors knew what I had done, it would have been covered up.
41:07You're hanged for this.
41:09Which is why I shall leave London tonight.
41:11I have a must quite a fortune.
41:13It's about time I enjoyed spending it.
41:18You have made your decision about Inspector Blake?
41:23I won't be giving him up.
41:26Not for anything.
41:31In that case, your fee will not be twice the normal rate as agreed.
41:37It would be a great deal more.
41:41Why?
41:42Because you're going to need it.
41:44And because I like you, Miss Scarlet.
41:47You're good at your job.
41:50Use the money however you see fit.
41:53But please...
41:55Be ambitious.
42:08It was a seduator.
42:10What happened?
42:12You're going to need a drink first.
42:13I don't agree with what Miss Scott did, but she did it for her country.
42:21I told the superintendent that I, like Miss Scott, have no taste for war.
42:26Young men dying painful deaths for little purpose.
42:29Did he listen?
42:31He did.
42:33Turns out he had a son who died in Crimea.
42:39He assured me my report had gone all the way up to the Prime Minister.
42:42He, of course, wishes to keep it out the public eye.
42:44How can he ensure that?
42:46A hefty promotion for the super.
42:47When will you tell him about us?
42:55I won't.
42:57Because there's no need.
43:00What?
43:02With his promotion, he'll be leaving Scotland Yard and there'll be a new superintendent.
43:06Well, who would that be?
43:09Me.
43:12We...
43:12You're going to be the next superintendent?
43:16Is that what you want?
43:18Nice office job.
43:24More money.
43:25Civilised hours.
43:27No more getting shot at.
43:30I'd say that's quite appealing.
43:34And you...
43:36can carry on working for Scotland Yard.
43:38As I will no longer be the inspector hiring you.
43:44I... I don't know what to say.
43:46How about...
43:48Alexander, you are the best thing that's ever happened to me.
43:52Certainly the most handsome.
43:54And I'm very lucky to have met you.
43:57A little long-winded, but...
44:00Broadly correct.
44:03So does that mean that willows will no longer be dismissed?
44:06It was the first thing I insisted upon.
44:09As well as another small matter.
44:11That the new clerical manager should be of my choosing.
44:15I think you'll approve of my choice.
44:18Good morning.
44:33Good morning, Mrs. Paz.
44:34Good morning, Detective Windows.
44:36To my clever wife.
44:50On her new promotion.
44:53To Ivy.
44:54Ivy.
44:55Ivy.
44:55Thank you, Barnabas.
45:01And thank you, Inspector Blake, for having such faith in me.
45:07It's called some more wine.
45:09Easy does it, my beloved.
45:11That will be your third.
45:11And I intend on having a thought.
45:16I'll go and get some more bottles from the kitchen.
45:18Yes.
45:19Will you assist me in a set plate?
45:20Of course, Miss Cardiff.
45:21It is delicious.
45:27Cheers.
45:35I told Sophia that we'd go somewhere nice for lunch.
45:38Monday this week, the three of us.
45:41You want to tell her about us?
45:43It's time.
45:43I already know.
45:48What do you already know?
45:50That Eliza's your special lady friend, and that you love her.
45:56Oh.
45:58Well, yes.
45:59Yes, that's precisely what I wanted to tell you.
46:03But can we still go to luncheon?
46:04Of course we can.
46:09But not tomorrow.
46:11I have a very busy day.
46:13I'm going to hire some new detectives.
46:15Maybe you should hire Sophia.
46:17She certainly has very impressive powers of deduction.
46:19You're silly, Papa.
46:23I know.
46:34Ready for the big day?
46:40Mm.
46:42Now, remember to make clear that the positions entail working long hours.
46:47What if only two candidates turn up?
46:49Sometimes even on a Sunday.
46:51Well, only one turns up.
46:52And that we do not offer overtime.
46:54Well, no one turns up.
46:58Eliza, all will be well.
47:01Go on.
47:04Welcome, everyone.
47:23Please, please, do come in.
47:25Good morning.
47:26Hello.
47:27Just up the stairs.
47:28Good morning.
47:29Hello.
47:30Thank you for coming.
47:33Hello.
47:34Hello.
47:35Hi.
47:36Please, just follow the way upstairs.
47:39Good morning.
47:40Thank you for coming.
