00:00I'll see you next time.
00:30I'll see you next time.
01:00I'll see you next time.
01:30I'll see you next time.
02:00That's because I'm in disguise.
02:02Disguise?
02:03Well, if I looked like a detective, people wouldn't tell me anything, would they?
02:07Secrets and that.
02:09Oh.
02:09Here, you want a bit of chocolate?
02:12So.
02:16There's a body in a river.
02:18What?
02:19I thought it was a log at first, but it's not.
02:20It's a body.
02:23What's your name?
02:24Pete, only my mates call me Gonzo on account of my nose.
02:27I think you've been watching that Hill Street Blues, Gonzo.
02:31They have bodies in rivers.
02:34Now, honest.
02:36It's a bearded geyser in a mech.
02:39Show me.
02:41You know something, Lyman?
02:41If they'd started Danny White against the Redskins, it would have been a totally different
02:46ball game.
02:47Danny White would have been sacked more times than Hoagaboo.
02:50Hey, what are you doing?
02:56What does it look like I'm doing?
02:56I'm opening a window.
02:57Hey, come on.
02:58It's British weather out there.
03:01Yeah, well, I can't breathe in here.
03:03Look, if you want to commit suicide, that's terrific, but you're not going to take me with
03:05you.
03:06I'm freezing my butt off.
03:07What's up?
03:12Yeah?
03:14Hang on.
03:14Hang on.
03:16Yeah, go ahead.
03:17Uh-huh.
03:25Yeah.
03:27Right.
03:29Yeah?
03:30We got a problem.
03:34Double or nothing on the next one.
03:42Hmm.
03:44Down on the mask.
03:45Yeah, right down on the mask.
03:46Before I meet his dick, he did.
03:49Nice.
03:50Yeah, wouldn't he?
04:01He was a client, Miss Standfast.
04:03I'd been acting for him in some of his, how shall I put it, fellow unfortunates for over
04:08three years.
04:09But if they're investors, their means can't be that limited.
04:11They'd lost their life savings.
04:13I felt so sorry for them.
04:15Why?
04:16Oh, Bud had flown back to America, leaving a bankrupt company and a trail of misery behind
04:22him.
04:22But that's all academic now.
04:24He's back.
04:25What's his name?
04:26Sanders.
04:27Jerry Sanders.
04:28He's leading a consortium of American businessmen.
04:33They've applied for a government grant to build an office block in the Isle of Dogs.
04:37At least you'll be able to take him to court.
04:39Well, I was about to start the wheels in motion, but it seems that poor Harry Davenport couldn't
04:43wait.
04:44He'd often said that if Saunders ever came back, he'd wring his neck.
04:48I'm very much afraid that two days ago, that's exactly what he tried to do.
04:52Which is how he came to end up in the river.
04:53And Harry Davenport was not a potential suicide, Miss Stamfast.
04:58I thought you only handled society divorces.
05:01Oh, it's a slow week.
05:03They seem to be sleeping in their own beds for a check.
05:05So you're scratching for work?
05:06No, you've got a client.
05:08No use asking who, I suppose.
05:10You suppose right.
05:11Well, there's nothing dodgy about Davenport's death.
05:14It was obviously suicide.
05:15Why obviously?
05:16Because he drowned.
05:17He probably jumped off a bridge somewhere upstream.
05:20Okay, so maybe he didn't jump.
05:24Maybe he swam out there and got cramp or something.
05:28Coffee?
05:29Luck.
05:31Did you know he had a heart condition?
05:33No, but it doesn't change anything.
05:35He didn't die of heart failure.
05:37He had no reason to kill himself.
05:40If you'd talk to his widow, she'd have told you that.
05:43Do I detect a hint of criticism?
05:47Why didn't you talk to her, Jim?
05:49There's no point.
05:50I'm satisfied.
05:51Chalmers is satisfied.
05:52As far as we're concerned, it's a wrap.
05:55I'd like to see the bodding.
05:58Why?
05:59I'd like our client to be satisfied.
06:02I'm sorry, Maggie.
06:03Can't do it.
06:04You're not a relation and you're not on the strength anymore.
06:08Jim, I don't want to have to get heavy.
06:11We can either do this under the old powers act or else I can go over your head.
06:16Come on.
06:20Now then, where'd you find him, Sonny?
06:23About there, wasn't it, Gunsok?
06:24Yeah.
06:26A couple of days ago.
06:28That'll be the 19th.
06:29What time?
06:30About half nine in the morning.
06:32Tail end of the ebb.
06:33Do you know how long you've been in the water?
06:35Eight hours a proper sip.
06:36Eight hours.
06:37Six hours of ebb.
06:38Average one and a half knots.
06:39One and a half hours flood at one knot.
06:41If the tide sets in around that point, that could put him straight on those flats where
06:46you found him.
06:47He could slosh around there for days.
06:50Right.
06:50Working backwards.
06:54That would make his point of entry.
06:57Round about there.
06:59How do you know this feel, Gonzo?
07:00Why?
07:01Should be twitching.
07:02What's that?
07:09What?
07:10The abrasion on the back of his head.
07:12Flotsam, according to Chalmers.
07:14Flotsam?
07:15Must have been travelling a hundred miles an hour.
07:18Listen, Maggie, if it's an insurance claim, you can stop worrying.
07:21It'll go down on the report as accidental death, although I still think he OD'd.
07:26No, you don't.
07:27What?
07:28You're too good a couple to think that.
07:30How could you assume we don't deal with a bloody great hate woman staring you in the
07:34face?
07:34What the hell is going on?
07:36Stay out a bit, Maggie.
07:37Stick to your society divorces.
07:39Save yourself a lot of grief.
07:40No.
07:45So, we went down the marina, chatted up the boss van bloke, and guess what happened?
07:54There's a yacht moored there, chartered by Jerry Sanders.
07:58My God, Gonzo.
07:59She's psychic.
08:01What's that?
08:02It's like a witch.
08:03She knows what she couldn't possibly know.
08:06Are you really a witch?
08:07No, Gonzo.
08:09He comes sailing in here like a couple of cats who swallowed a bucket full of cream.
08:12When you told me you'd been to a marina, I put two and two together.
08:15So, where do we go from here?
08:17You stay in mind the shop.
08:18Gonzo goes home to his mother.
08:19I get myself invited out to dinner.
08:21Goodbye.
08:21There's one to Proudfoot.
08:23Oh, not that punts.
08:25What do you want to go to dinner with him for?
08:27Because he's a mine of information.
08:30And because I'm hungry.
08:30All that punts.
08:41I'm hungry.
08:46Don't touch us!
08:51I'm sorry.
09:03Yes?
09:04Dr. Chalmers.
09:05Yes.
09:07Is that you, Doctor?
09:08Well, of course it's me.
09:09What do you want?
09:11Maggie.
09:11Maggie Forbes.
09:12The Cresford case.
09:13Do you remember?
09:14Maggie.
09:15Ah, yes.
09:17Inspector Forbes.
09:18Well, it's just plain Maggie these days.
09:20Can I come in?
09:21Well, I wouldn't advise it.
09:22My grandson's having a birthday party.
09:25It's absolutely hell.
09:26I won't give you very long.
09:27It's just a couple of questions.
09:28Well, if it really is just a couple of questions, come on.
09:34Now, now, now.
09:35There we go.
09:38Princess!
09:39Princess!
09:45Princess!
09:48Princess!
09:48Oh!
09:50Well, Harry Davenport, the old man they pulled out of the river, you did the PM on him yesterday.
09:59Yes, what about it?
10:00What was the cause of death?
10:01Well, as you might expect, drowning.
10:04So it was either accident or suicide?
10:06No, most certainly not.
10:07Didn't you read my report?
10:10Oh, Jim Phelps wouldn't show it to me.
10:12Why not?
10:12I'm no longer on the force.
10:15Then why the interest?
10:17I'm a private investigator now.
10:19I've got a client who's interested.
10:20But you should know.
10:21I can't review my findings to anybody but the investigating officer.
10:25If your client wants a special report, well, you'll have to find another pathologist.
10:31Doctor, what's the abrasion on the back of his head really caused by Flotsam?
10:39Oh, on earth told you that.
10:40Jim Phelps.
10:41How very odd.
10:44Why would he have been something so ludicrous?
10:46That's not true.
10:47Well, of course not.
10:48Flotsam, indeed.
10:50If that's the tale he's telling, he'll make me look an incompetent fool.
10:55Do you want to put the record straight?
10:58Yes, perhaps I'd better.
11:01The abrasion was caused by a blow on the head before the deceased entered the water.
11:06A blow?
11:08From what, do you know?
11:09A weapon in a rather distinctive shape.
11:13There's something that might be the same.
11:17Jerry Sanders is just your type, Prudining.
11:20Like fast cars, fast horses, and fast women.
11:24I don't like fast women.
11:25Neither do I.
11:26Slow women are better, huh?
11:28Let's face it, Desmond.
11:29The only women you're interested in are the ones caught in for granted with cabinet ministers.
11:33Preferably with big boobs.
11:34Don't be coarse prudence.
11:36The size of her boobs is immaterial.
11:38What my readers want to know is how many hyphens she has, and how many racing gloves she's
11:43poured champagne over.
11:45You realize you've finished that sentence with a preposition.
11:47Yeah, it's dreadful, isn't it?
11:49Fleet Street's gradually dragging me down.
11:52Next thing you know, I'll be typing impute.
11:54When I mean impugn.
11:55Isn't it time you resigned and wrote the great novel?
11:58Hmm.
11:59Definitely not.
12:00I've grown too fond of La Dolce Vita to give it all up now.
12:04Tell you what.
12:07You write it.
12:08I'll put my name to it.
12:10And we'll go 50-50.
12:11How's that?
12:12Too generous.
12:13I really would like to hear more about Sanders.
12:18Tell me, Prudia, why is a nice girl like you interested in a chap like Sanders?
12:24Because he's an embezzler.
12:27Because he may also be a murderer.
12:29Good grief.
12:30Sounds like what they call a scoop.
12:34I'll give you a pass.
12:35I'll give you a pass.
13:00Hi, there.
13:09Hello.
13:11Who's the lucky fella?
13:12Lucky fella?
13:14The guy you're waiting for.
13:16I'm not waiting for anyone.
13:19I didn't think ladies did that over here.
13:22Did what?
13:23Drink on the roll.
13:25Maybe I'm not a lady.
13:27You sure are.
13:28I know class when I see it.
13:32Are you trying to pick me up?
13:36Any objection?
13:39Just don't push too hard, okay?
13:54It's the old classic, Maggie.
13:56You offer fantastically high rates of interest.
13:58Pay off the original investors with money from the new ones.
14:01Sooner or later you're about to collapse.
14:03But by then you've made a killing and you get the hell out.
14:05So what are you going to do about it?
14:07Nothing.
14:08Nothing?
14:08When we heard Sanders was coming back, we sent the papers to the DPP.
14:14He told us to drop it.
14:15He told us to drop it.
14:15What?
14:16Insufficient evidence?
14:17Do me a favor.
14:18Do me a favor.
14:18We had him by the Short and Curly's.
14:20Why?
14:22Political decision, if you ask me.
14:24The almighty dollar rules.
14:26So, three years of investigation goes down the tube.
14:30Let me get this straight.
14:31You reckon that pressure was put on the DPP because Sanders was bringing in a lot of hard currency.
14:39Makes sense, doesn't it?
14:40From the government's point of view.
14:43So they're just going to be swept under the carpet?
14:44They stand about as much chance of getting the result as Tranmere Rovers at Anfield.
14:51Makes you sick, doesn't it?
14:52Makes me bloody angry.
14:55What happened to Sanders' fire?
14:57We'd play noughts and crosses on you.
14:59Can you get me a copy?
15:01I don't know about that.
15:03I'm only five years from McBenshire.
15:05It's the only way all your hard work is going to pay off.
15:09Okay.
15:10So long as you keep me out of it.
15:13Eat your sausage.
15:14Just one question, Jerry.
15:20I think we'd better get this out of the way, up front as you colonists have it.
15:24Are you married?
15:26No.
15:27Ever been?
15:28Sure, three times.
15:30Sometimes it feels like I'm supporting half the population of Connecticut.
15:34Is that where you're from, Connecticut?
15:35Are you kidding?
15:37I come from a cold-water tenement in the Bronx.
15:40But I had one thing going for me.
15:43Brains.
15:43It shows, huh?
15:45Why did you think I allowed you to pick me up?
15:48I wondered.
15:50I mean, it's not as if I'm God's gift to women, right?
15:54Especially a classy dame like you.
15:56Man's looks aren't important.
15:58It's what's upstairs that interests me.
16:00Do you mean that if he's got it upstairs, he's got it downstairs?
16:06I wouldn't have put it quite as crudely, but, um...
16:11Sorry, I, um, I was never too hot in the good-taste department.
16:15That is one thing that you do not learn in the Bronx.
16:18I think you've got extremely good taste.
16:21You do?
16:22You pick me up, didn't you?
16:27Take a pill, Nigel.
16:29Thank you, sir.
16:30Now, what was it I wanted to talk to you about?
16:37Oh, yes, those three variegals of yours, the eyes people.
16:42They're not mine, sir.
16:44All I do is process their expenses.
16:46Which, incidentally, are far too high.
16:48I mean, is it really necessary for them to order those reams of embossed notepaper?
16:52Writing paper.
16:54Sorry?
16:55Nothing.
16:56You were saying.
16:59I was saying that no woman is an island, Nigel.
17:02That poet chap was absolutely right.
17:04What they need is a firm hand on their tillers.
17:08My briefs liaison, sir.
17:10I wasn't told anything about, um, strong hands on tillers.
17:14Well, I suggest the time has come when you should take a more active role.
17:18Can't always let the eyes have it, eh?
17:25Joke, Nigel.
17:27The double meaning hadn't escaped me, sir.
17:31Thing is, one of them has started fishing in a no-go area.
17:36So just gently push her back to where she belongs, would you?
17:40Which one?
17:41Forbes.
17:42That woman can't seem to stop making a damn nuisance of herself.
17:46I'm sure she didn't realize.
17:48She must be made to realize.
17:51Do I make myself clear?
17:55Perfectly.
17:55Good God, Jerry.
18:19You said a yacht, not an ocean-goer.
18:21Diner.
18:22Not bad, eh?
18:22For a kid from the Bronx.
18:24The state is simple.
18:25Yeah, well, got a wine and dine a lot of break socks, so we thought we'd do it in style.
18:31Come with my partners.
18:33Okay, Skipper.
18:34Cut the string or whatever the hell you gotta do.
18:36Very good, sir.
18:37Calls off for it.
18:38Hey, everybody.
18:41This is Georgie.
18:44Tony, Sam, and Gina.
18:48Glad to know you, Georgie.
18:56Welcome aboard.
19:02And this is Abby, my secretary.
19:04Hi.
19:06Let me get you a drink.
19:08Gin?
19:09Scotch?
19:10I think I'd better go easy on the hard stuff.
19:12I only have to look at the sea and I throw up.
19:14We're not going as far as the sea.
19:16Just a gentle trip downriver.
19:18There is no such thing as a gentle trip on water.
19:20Not for me.
19:21So why'd you come?
19:22Because Jerry asked me.
19:24Yeah, he's a great guy, isn't he?
19:26Well, how y'all doing?
19:28Well, I am a big boy.
19:39Yes, Nigel.
19:41No, Nigel.
19:44What do you mean, certain parties?
19:47Oh, stop being so white-haulish, for God's sake.
19:51All right, all right.
19:53Message received and understood.
19:56I'm probably ignored.
19:57This is bigger than we thought.
19:59Why?
20:00Nigel.
20:01Warning us off.
20:02What's that got to do with him?
20:04Good question.
20:05Who's Nigel?
20:07Backstabber.
20:09Gin?
20:24Having a good time, Georgie?
20:26Yes.
20:29It looks good.
20:29Kill, I'd have been dead as soon as I came aboard.
20:32How come?
20:33Abby, she seems to think she has a prior claim.
20:36Don't worry about her.
20:37She's yesterday, sir.
20:39Does she know that?
20:40She knows it was no big deal.
20:42No strings, no guarantees.
20:46I have to get some mail.
20:47Would you excuse me, please?
20:48You want me to come?
20:49No, no, you stay in here, she'll be.
20:51No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
21:21Got your sea legs yet?
21:46Me, I'm lucky. Never had that kind of trouble. Every one of my ancestors was a fish.
21:55I'm afraid I come from a long line of land lovers.
21:58Not to be ashamed of. To each his own, right? Bet you're a wizard hunting and shooting.
22:05My father is. Personally, I find the persecution of our fellow creatures somewhat degrading.
22:10You do? Just shows how wrong you can be.
22:14I thought all you British upper crust types spent all your time chasing after foxes and birds.
22:19Nowadays, we spend all our time saving our stately homes from the tax man.
22:23What England are you from?
22:26Actually, I was born in India, but my parents live in Hampshire now.
22:30Do you, uh, commute?
22:34No. I have a flat in town.
22:37Where?
22:39What is this, the Inquisition?
22:42Sorry, no offence. I...
22:44It's just that back home we're more curious about strangers than you are.
22:47That's why we ask all these damn food questions.
22:50Hey, what is this love affair you got with windows?
23:05Yeah, what love affair is that?
23:07Every time you see one, you gotta open it.
23:09What are you trying to do? Give me pneumonia?
23:11Look, I'll stop opening windows when you stop trying to give me lung cancer.
23:13You know that's the second pack you've been through already today?
23:14Back and a half, Max.
23:15No, no, no, no, no, no.
23:16No, no, no.
23:17No, no, no. Come on, you had ten before we even left this morning.
23:18Geez, you sound like my old lady. Look. Will you read that? Huh? Look at it.
23:19What?
23:20There, there. What's it say?
23:21Richly rewarding, uncommonly smooth?
23:22Will you skip the commercial? There, there, there. Lotar.
23:24Right?
23:25No, no, no.
23:26No, no. You don't. No, no, no.
23:27No, no. No, no, no. No, no.
23:28The second pack you've been through already today?
23:29Back and a half, maximum.
23:30No, no, come on.
23:30You had ten before we even left this morning.
23:32Geez, you just sound like my old lady.
23:33Look, will you read that?
23:35Huh?
23:35Look at it.
23:36What?
23:36There, there.
23:37What's it say?
23:38Richly rewarding, uncommonly smooth.
23:40Will you skip the commercial?
23:41There, there, there.
23:42Low tar.
23:43Right?
23:44Low tar.
23:44It's not the tar that bothers me.
23:46It's the smoke.
23:46I can't stand smoke.
23:50Say it, Jim.
23:50Sorry, I'm going to be queasy on you, Jared.
23:52Okay, now?
23:54So when are we going to see you again?
23:56I don't know.
23:58I'll call you.
23:59Oh, can I call you?
24:00Not yet.
24:01I don't like to be crowded.
24:03Crowded?
24:04Come on.
24:05I really did enjoy myself.
24:08Oh, may I have some of those to take home?
24:09Sure.
24:10Be my guest.
24:17Dad.
24:18No problem.
24:21Waste not, want not, as my father used to say.
24:28Lovely.
24:35Boy, Sanders can really pick them.
24:38Yeah, she's a looker, all right.
24:41What else is she?
24:50Well, there you go.
24:51Whoops.
25:03Chocolates?
25:06Bye, Georgie.
25:07Bye, Jerry.
25:07Bye, everybody.
25:08Bye, bye.
25:09Bye, bye.
25:10Bye, bye.
25:11Bye, bye.
25:11Bye, bye.
25:12Bye, bye.
25:13Bye, bye.
25:13Bye, bye.
25:13Bye, bye, bye.
25:13Bye, bye, bye.
25:14Bye, bye, bye.
25:15Bye, bye.
25:16Bye, bye, bye.
25:16Bye, bye, bye.
25:17Bye, bye, bye, bye.
25:18Bye, bye, bye.
25:18Bye, bye, bye, bye.
25:19Bye, bye, bye, bye.
25:19Bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye.
26:20It's a real detective, Gonzo.
26:22She doesn't go round asking questions in the rain.
26:25Oh no, that's for us minions.
26:27She gets to lay on yachts, being offered dry martinis by nice looking blokes.
26:32Then she gets them all in the cabin and says,
26:35someone on this boat is a murderer.
26:37You're right.
26:40Someone on that boat is a murderer.
26:43Blimey.
26:45What is it?
26:46Murder weapon?
26:47I'll take it a chance.
26:51Oh, three things, Brooke.
26:54Message on the machine.
26:57Your friend, Desmond.
26:59Copy of Sanders' Fraud Squad file on your desk.
27:02My friend, Mike.
27:04Oh, I got a call telling us to lay off the case.
27:07Fred's friend, Nigel.
27:09Nigel?
27:11Don't look at us, miss.
27:13We don't know anyone called Nigel, do we?
27:17Nah.
27:17Hello, Brooke, darling.
27:26Desmond here.
27:26Your ever-loving Swain.
27:29Our city editor has been making some inquiries about your friend's friends.
27:33He confirms they're definitely persona non grata in American legal circles.
27:38One little exception.
27:39Sanders' secretary, Miss Abigail Walker,
27:42used to have a highly classified job in the Puzzle Palace.
27:46Yes.
27:47The National Security Agency.
27:50Take the bones out of that one poo, darling.
27:52Right now.
27:56Well.
27:58It's been a long day.
28:00Gonzo and me, we're clocking off for the night.
28:02Okay?
28:03Okay.
28:04Goodbye, Gonzo.
28:05Thanks for your help.
28:06Did you really find the murderer?
28:08No.
28:09She didn't.
28:10We did.
28:11We found the yacht, didn't we?
28:13Yeah.
28:15We're a pretty good team, right?
28:16Right.
28:17Right.
28:30I have to talk to you.
28:32I'm pushed, Abby.
28:34Can't it wait till morning?
28:35No.
28:36No.
28:37Your friend with the cut glass accent?
28:41She's a detective.
28:43You are kidding.
28:44Her name's Stanfast.
28:46She runs an agency near where they found Davenport.
28:50And she's traced him to the boat.
28:52How?
28:54God knows.
28:56But she's obviously pretty smart.
28:58Because the boat hook's missing.
29:00Jesus.
29:04You're a liability, Jerry.
29:07You've been a walking disaster area since day one.
29:11God knows why we didn't run a check on you.
29:14What do you want me to do?
29:16Nothing.
29:17Luckily, she has government connections, so we can use a bit of leverage.
29:23Suppose it doesn't work.
29:29You better pray it does.
29:31It is the murder weapon, Prue.
29:41No questions.
29:42Traces of blood and a couple of good prints.
29:44Okay, Maggie.
29:45Look, ask him to keep it under wraps for 24 hours, will you?
29:47Right.
29:48That's all right.
29:48I have to go.
29:48Bye.
29:49Nigel.
30:05Evening, Prudence.
30:07Spare a G&T, can you?
30:08No.
30:08No.
30:08No.
30:09No.
30:09No.
30:10No.
30:11No.
30:12No.
30:13No.
30:14No.
30:15No.
30:16No.
30:17No.
30:18I take it this is an official visit.
30:22What makes you think that?
30:25I'm getting bad vibes.
30:27I can't imagine why.
30:30It's just that you've inadvertently strayed into another department's territory, and there's
30:35a conflict of interests.
30:38I see.
30:39Sir, if you'd be good enough to give them a clear field from now on.
30:42Lay off, you mean?
30:45Well, yes.
30:45You know what a bore interdepartmental rivalry can be.
30:54I also know what happens when one leaves things to Whitehall.
30:58Frantic inactivity followed by a deafening silence.
31:02Sorry, Prudence.
31:03It's an order.
31:04I suppose you realize we have evidence, irrefutable evidence that Sanders is an embezzler, and the
31:11circumstantial evidence that he's also a murderer.
31:13It doesn't matter what he is.
31:15He's out of bounds.
31:17Why?
31:18I can't answer that.
31:20Then I can't drop the investigation.
31:22Oh, dear.
31:23I was afraid you'd be difficult.
31:28Difficult?
31:29You really expect me to let a man like Sanders off the hook just because some faceless pinstripe
31:34in the corridors of power puts a block on the case?
31:36No, Nigel.
31:37You will have to do better than that.
31:38You will have to do better than that.
32:08I may have come in.
32:19What sort of welcome is that, Jerry?
32:21I thought we'd established a meaningful relationship.
32:23I know who you are.
32:25You're a goddamn snooper.
32:27You should have kept out of it.
32:38You don't know what you're into.
32:39Well, I know what I'm into, all right.
32:42Embezzlement.
32:44A murder.
32:44You think you're so goddamn smart, don't you?
33:03You think you've got it all figured out?
33:05Not all.
33:07But enough to have you put away for the rest of this century.
33:10Oh, you haven't.
33:11I got protection.
33:13Protection?
33:14From the top.
33:15You must know that or you wouldn't be here.
33:17The cops don't want to know, right?
33:19They will, after I give the story to the press.
33:22You're bluffing.
33:23No, Jerry.
33:24I have a copy of the Fraud Squad's file on you.
33:29And the pathologist's report, which confirms Davenport was killed on your boat.
33:34Wasn't me.
33:36Who, then?
33:43Gino.
33:46Gino.
33:47I invited Davenport for dinner on the yacht because I thought I could buy him off.
33:54But I was wrong.
33:56He'd lost his temper and started shouting and swearing.
34:00Gino told him to shut up, but he just went on and on, threatening to tell the world what a son of a bitch I was.
34:05So Gino hit him on the head with a boat hook?
34:08I may be a no-good son of a bitch, Miss, whatever your name is, but I'm no killer.
34:14There may be a way you can get out from under.
34:22What's that?
34:24By turning Queen's evidence.
34:26If you give me a signed statement implicating Gino, and if you agree to reimburse my clients in full,
34:32maybe we can make a deal.
34:34I already got a deal.
34:36Not with me.
34:38And I'm the one with the proof.
34:40Suppose I tell you what you can do with it.
34:42I'll blow you right out of the water.
34:49Okay.
34:51Give me 24 hours to find the money, and you can have your statement.
34:57Well, that's it.
34:59We've got to take out Sanders.
35:00Mm-hmm.
35:02So, what about Goldilocks?
35:06Well, when we take care of Sanders, that'll take care of her.
35:08Hey, they said low profile.
35:10Do you mean the D-notice covers the entire consortium?
35:21Yes.
35:25I don't believe this.
35:28Whose side are you on, for God's sake?
35:31The countries.
35:32And the country's quite prepared to let a murderer get away scot-free.
35:36I don't like it any more than you do.
35:39But I have to obey orders.
35:42Well, I don't.
35:43Stop the car.
35:45But we're miles away from anywhere.
35:47Let me out.
35:49Call in, Horace.
35:52Bury it, Prudence.
35:54Please.
35:55Please.
35:56As a favor to me.
36:00I only do favors for friends, Nigel.
36:02Keep the change.
36:18Quick, shut the door.
36:19What the hell's going on?
36:20I'm in trouble, Abby.
36:22Big trouble.
36:23You've got to get me out of here.
36:25Out of where?
36:26Out of this goddamn country.
36:28I've got to lie low until you can get me on a plane.
36:30But you can't leave now.
36:32If I stick around, my life won't be worth a plugged nickel.
36:35Why?
36:36Well, that detective came to see me.
36:38She wants a sworn statement.
36:39It was Gino knocked off that Davenport guy.
36:42And she's got some kind of a file on me.
36:44If I don't do what she wants, she'll give it to the papers.
36:47A lot of people aren't going to be too happy about that.
36:49I know.
36:51But for old time's sake,
36:54you've got to help me.
36:56Not for old time's sake, Jerry.
37:00Because we need to get you out of our hair.
37:16I'd like to make a reservation for Mr. Sanders
37:19on the next available flight to New York.
38:59Relax, Jerry. Fix yourself another drink.
39:05Maybe I should take a cab.
39:08They said they'd send for a car.
39:10You better wait for it.
39:11That's got to be it.
39:17Hiya, Jerry.
39:31You called Gina?
39:41No, they called Gina.
39:42Double-crossing bitch!
39:44Go in the side!
41:55I'm feeling distinctly edgy.
41:57You won't need that.
41:58Looks like you had quite a night.
42:04It was just a short visit.
42:05I couldn't persuade them to stay.
42:07Who were they?
42:08They didn't leave their names, but as they took your file, I imagine they were your friends
42:12from the CIA.
42:14You worked it out then?
42:16Some of it.
42:18Why would you choose a secretary who used to work for the National Security Agency?
42:22I didn't choose her.
42:22She was assigned to me.
42:25I gather she was more than a secretary.
42:27I thought that she cared for me.
42:32She turned out to be nothing but a spy.
42:33Hell hath no fury like a con man can't.
42:38She called Gina.
42:39Can you believe that?
42:41The dirtiest trick of all.
42:44They all want me at the bottom of the river.
42:45Why wouldn't I want you at the bottom of a river?
42:49Because with me dead, your clients would never get their money.
42:53And you'd never be able to pin Davenport's murder on Gina.
42:59They've tracked you down, Jerry.
43:03Well, just call the police.
43:05No, they might hand you over to those sharks out there.
43:11I do hope you're enjoying yourself, Nigel.
43:14What?
43:14It's turnt.
43:18Fire service, please.
43:44Bonzo, come here.
43:51Oh, my God.
44:05Bonzo, there's something very important I want you to do for me.
44:07There's something very important I want you to do for me.
44:09Call the man called Desmond Proudfoot. His number's 0190.
44:16I'm on my way to Fleet Street. I've got a great story for him.
44:27It's them.
44:37I'm on my way to Fleet Street.
45:07Let's get out of here.
45:37Let's get out of here.
46:07What's going on?
46:11I thought you were going to help me.
46:13I sure don't know.
46:20You bastard!
46:22Why can't you do as you are told, Prudence?
46:25Certain parties are highly displeased.
46:28Certain parties can take a running jump!
46:30I warned you. You were trespassing.
46:33You won't get away with this. I'll give the whole thing to the press!
46:37No, you won't.
46:39Why not?
46:40Because you signed the official secret, sir.
46:46God, you are a bastard!
46:49You've made your view of my parentage perfectly clear.
46:52But you realise you've set back Anglo-American relations at least ten years.
46:57You've even put my job in jeopardy.
46:59Good. I hope you spend the rest of your life on the dough.
47:02However, despite all the trouble you've caused, I think I can use my influence on your behalf.
47:08To do what?
47:09Buy us an extra box of paperclips.
47:11I believe I can persuade the British and American governments to reimburse all Sanders investors in full.
47:19I see.
47:21Thirty pieces of silver.
47:23I'd have thought you'd be pleased.
47:27What happens to Sanders?
47:29Hand him over to our transatlantic cousins.
47:32Do you care what happens to him?
47:34Do you?
47:35Thank you, Mr McNeil.
47:44Yes, I'll certainly convey your congratulations to Miss Standfast.
47:49Goodbye.
47:50That's a very satisfied client.
47:52Makes a change.
47:53He says he's sure he'll be calling on our services again before long.
47:59Makes me feel like a high-class tart.
48:02Why high-class?
48:04Watch it, PC plod.
48:06Or you'll be the next thing that falls off of the back of my brother's lorry.
48:10Hello, Gonzo.
48:12What are you up to?
48:13I've just seen another body.
48:14Where?
48:15In the river.
48:16Are you sure?
48:17Well, it could be a log, I suppose.
48:18For heaven's sake, Gonzo, leave us alone.
48:19Go and fish the other bank.
48:20Right.
48:21Right.
48:22Right.
48:23Right.
48:24Right.
48:25Right.
48:26Right.
48:55Alright.
48:57Right.
48:59Right.
49:00Okay.
49:02It's blank.
49:03So, I'd like to follow my brother's lorry thinking.
49:05I'll see you right now.
49:08Yeah.
49:10Well, wait a minute here.
49:16Okay.
49:20Pick up all your mess and figure yourself.
