00:00No, I'm alone. We're going to park up.
00:02Oh, Brenda, slow down!
00:09Stop yelling. You're making me nervous.
00:12Almost dying makes me nervous.
00:14You flew past two stop signs.
00:17I didn't want you to be late on your first day.
00:21I appreciate that.
00:24But this was a bad idea.
00:26I'm afraid I'll have to postpone your lessons while I do jury service.
00:29Well, how long will that be for?
00:31I can't say for sure.
00:32And I'm afraid I can't speak about the case once it starts.
00:36I'm more than happy for you and Father Brown to observe,
00:38but there'll be no discussions of any kind about the case.
00:42Understood.
00:42We will withhold our opinions until the case is concluded.
00:46Good luck, Mrs Sullivan.
00:47Thank you, Father.
00:50How am I supposed to improve if I can't practice?
00:54You may be resuming your lessons sooner than you think.
00:57This is likely to be a short trial.
01:00Well, how do you know that?
01:01According to the paper, the accused has already confessed.
01:13I've never been to a murder trial before.
01:18Sorry, Father.
01:18I know you knew the victim.
01:22Who was he again?
01:24His name was Arthur Goddard.
01:27He was a good man.
01:29I met him through his daughter, Josie,
01:32who attended catechism as a child.
01:35That's her there,
01:37on the end of the green dress.
01:40All rise,
01:42Rizona, Judge, Carmichael.
01:44Will the accused please rise?
02:04Please state your full name for the court.
02:07David Thomas Ensley.
02:09You are indicted on one count of murder.
02:14Namely, that on 9th of May, 1955,
02:17you did murder Arthur Goddard,
02:19contrary to common law.
02:21Do you understand the charge against him?
02:24Yes.
02:26How do you plead?
02:29Not guilty.
02:30Not guilty.
02:53What's the blimmin' old up?
03:21I'm not sure.
03:23Members of the jury, I must inform you that the defendant has excused his counsel and wishes to represent himself.
03:32Something I will allow.
03:37He's fired his barrister. Is that a good idea, Father?
03:41Not usually, no.
03:43Ladies and gentlemen, Arthur Goddard lived and worked peacefully as a potter on his small plot of land all his life,
03:53until he was brutally stabbed in his workshop in the dead of night.
03:58Why would this happen?
04:32Mr Goddard, as he lay dying, they caught Mr Ensley attempting to flee.
04:39He had his employer's blood on his coat and cash in his pocket taken from the safety deposit box.
04:47Mr Ensley gave a full confession to police after his arrest, a confession he now wishes to retract.
04:56But I believe we will prove beyond a shadow of doubt that he is guilty of this crime.
05:06I know how it looks, but I never killed Arthur.
05:24He gave me that money, and I only went back to check on him and saw someone else had stabbed him.
05:36I know I shouldn't have run, but I swear it wasn't me.
05:57Do you think he's telling the truth, Father?
06:00I intend to find out.
06:06I'm not a man of faith, Father.
06:23That's not why I'm here.
06:26I knew Arthur.
06:33And I would like to know the truth.
06:36Were you lying when you confessed to his murder?
06:42Or did you lie in court when you pleaded innocent?
06:46I didn't kill him.
06:49That's the truth.
06:51Then why wait till now to defend yourself?
06:57Because I knew the police would take one look at me.
07:00The blood, the blood, the money, did it.
07:09Assume I was guilty.
07:10Most men would have protested, nonetheless.
07:17I learned a long time ago.
07:20If you can't win, don't fight.
07:24But you have decided to fight.
07:29So, perhaps you have faith, after all.
07:32No.
07:35I'm sure I'll be hanged.
07:39And I had made my peace with that.
07:42But then my solicitor said,
07:45pleading guilty might mean being locked up for the rest of my life.
07:48I'd rather die.
07:53And your previous conviction for manslaughter,
07:56were you falsely accused of that, too?
08:00No.
08:03I used to want to pick a fight with the whole world.
08:07Tell he ate a man so hard,
08:10he never got up again.
08:10I deserve what came to me.
08:17I know how wrong it is
08:19to take a life.
08:26Especially a man like Arthur's.
08:33No.
08:35You didn't kill Arthur.
08:37But you are already in the dock,
08:41so I do not have much time to find the real culprit.
08:44You will have to assist me.
08:46Why to, Father?
08:47But I'll...
08:48Time's over.
08:50By recounting to me, meticulously,
08:53everything I ask you to.
08:57Sometimes the clue is in the smallest detail.
09:07Can you believe they're not even paying us properly for this?
09:12I'm just about full of the weekly shop as it is.
09:15This blimmin' trial better not drag on for too long.
09:18Well, in that case, perhaps we should get started.
09:21So, um...
09:22What does everyone make of what they've heard so far?
09:26Well, it's obvious, isn't it?
09:28Ends these guilty of sin.
09:29Oh, it's a bit early to assume that.
09:33No, it's not.
09:33He confessed.
09:34There could be a number of reasons
09:36why a person might confess to a crime they didn't commit.
09:39How would you know?
09:40I...
09:40I take an interest in murder cases.
09:44Also, my husband's a police detective inspector.
09:47So, somehow, he'd be cleverer than us.
09:49If a man's killed before,
09:51nine times out of ten, he'll kill again.
09:54It's not fair to judge someone just because of their past.
09:58Look, I'm not saying Ends is innocent,
10:02but we need to consider he might be.
10:10I still think I could have driven here.
10:14Brenda, what's the urgency?
10:16I'm sure the verdict will come soon enough
10:18and then I'm all yours.
10:20I must go.
10:21Oh.
10:23Good morning, Sergeant.
10:24Morning.
10:25Morning, Father.
10:26Miss Palmer.
10:27What up, Pam?
10:28What are you doing here?
10:29We are observing a murder trial, Sergeant.
10:32You?
10:32I'm testifying at one of the smaller courts.
10:35Not nearly as interesting as a murder trial, mind.
10:37Good day.
10:38Good day.
10:38I shall now read a statement given by Police Sergeant Alistair Flynn
10:58of Sirencester Police Station,
11:00who is unable to attend in person.
11:01The station telephone rang at approximately 1.30 a.m.
11:07When I answered, I heard a man in considerable pain.
11:11He gave his name as Arthur Goddard of Goddard's Pottery.
11:14He told me he'd been stabbed and asked for immediate assistance.
11:20I then heard Mr. Goddard gasp and cry out in fear.
11:25He said, David, no.
11:34After that, the line went dead.
11:47Father, are you sure you're not wrong about David?
11:51Why would Arthur have called out his name, Arthur?
11:55I am undoubtedly fallible, Miss Palmer,
11:58but I think that Arthur's words were misleading.
12:08Pardon me for interrupting.
12:10Do you remember me?
12:12Father Brown, of course.
12:15My goodness, it's been so many years.
12:17It has indeed.
12:19A pity to meet again under such sad circumstances.
12:22I'm sorry about your father.
12:25This is Miss Palmer, my housekeeper.
12:27And this is my husband.
12:28Royce Holland.
12:29It's a pleasure to meet you both.
12:32Poor thing.
12:33She's, um...
12:34She is exhausted.
12:36I'm all right.
12:37It's just hard watching that brute defending himself.
12:40You believe David Ensley is guilty?
12:42Of course he is.
12:43He took advantage of my father for years.
12:46He even forced us to leave my own mother's funeral.
12:47He struck my husband.
12:49Don't, don't upset yourself.
12:50It's all in the past.
12:52Let me take you home.
12:53I'd rather be at the cottage.
12:55All right.
12:56I'll wait in the car.
13:00I've been, er, putting my father's affairs in order.
13:04Would it comfort you if I paid you a visit later?
13:07Thank you, father.
13:09I'd...
13:09I'd like that.
13:15Did I imagine it?
13:16Or could you smell alcohol on her breath?
13:19No, you didn't imagine it.
13:22A way of coping with recent events, no doubt.
13:36I suppose you don't believe me anymore, father.
13:38No, my belief is unchanged, but I need an explanation.
13:42I met Arthur's daughter.
13:44She said you ejected her from her mother's funeral.
13:47Arthur wanted her there.
13:49Just not her husband, but he wouldn't go.
13:52I shouldn't have hit him, but Arthur was upset.
13:56They both left, but I'll never forget the luck Josie gave her father.
14:01When was this?
14:03Just a few months back.
14:05So Josie's anger would still have been palpable the night her father died?
14:09There was a man in a big fancy car who wanted to buy the pottery, father.
14:17I never got his name, but I saw him in court today.
14:20Yes, I noticed him.
14:22Yes, I noticed him.
14:24Tell me more.
14:26Arthur weren't interested in selling, but the man kept coming back.
14:30With cigars and bottles of whiskey, that sort of thing.
14:34But that didn't work.
14:36He sent two men to try and lean on Arthur.
14:41But I put an end to that.
14:43So Arthur came to depend on you.
14:48Why did he sack you?
14:50Arthur wanted himself that day.
14:52Said I'd made a mistake with some tiles and kill, and it cost us a day's takings.
14:58I said it weren't me, but he called me a liar.
15:03Paid me off and told me to go.
15:04But I knew something was wrong.
15:09So I went back later that night.
15:12Send someone.
15:14Quickly.
15:17David!
15:18No!
15:21Arthur, what happened?
15:26Who did this?
15:27No time.
15:29The police coming.
15:30You'll be blamed.
15:32I don't care about that.
15:33Tell me who did it.
15:35Use that money I gave you.
15:37Get away.
15:39I'm not leaving you.
15:40Please, David, run.
15:44Promise me.
15:54He fired you to protect you.
16:00I think he knew he was going to die.
16:03I could have sworn I'd bought some biscuits, but there were none in the cupboard.
16:31It's these pills I take from my nerves.
16:35They make me forgetful.
16:37Tea is ample, Mrs. Holland.
16:40Please, call me Josie, like before.
16:43I'm sorry things had become difficult with your father, Josie.
16:47Well, he never forgave me for eloping with Royce when I was 16.
16:52I must say, you were rather young.
16:55I was old enough to know my mind.
16:57My father always blamed Royce.
17:00Daddy always thought he knew best.
17:03You still seem angry with him.
17:06Can you blame me?
17:08I was his child, and he loved some stranger more than me.
17:11I'm sure that's not true.
17:13Isn't it?
17:15Well, he left everything to David.
17:16I mean, I get my mother's personal things, of course, but David gets the house, the factory.
17:24Now do you see why I think he's guilty, Father?
17:27I agree.
17:28An inheritance can be a strong motive.
17:32Of course, if David Ensley is hanged, it will all revert to you.
17:37And you think I'd want it now, after what's happened here?
17:42Do you recall where you were the night your father died?
17:48I think Royce was having a sing-song in the pub.
17:52I must confess, I'd had a few gins, which doesn't mix well with my pills, so I went upstairs to bed.
17:57You live above a pub?
17:59Royce owns the Raven Tavern.
18:01It's a family business.
18:06You know, I used to help my dad in the workshop.
18:11He taught me everything I needed to know to run this place someday.
18:15I suppose it just wasn't meant to be.
18:21Mr. Holland, would you describe for the jury the events that took place at your mother-in-law's funeral?
18:26What do you think motivated Mr. Ensley's aggression that day?
18:30Well, I believe a reconciliation between Josie and her father was possible.
18:34But Mr. Ensley was determined to prevent that from happening.
18:40So Arthur would keep him in the will.
18:43But I didn't know about any inheritance still a week ago.
18:45Mr. Ensley!
18:46Some solicitor told me he's making Josie contest it.
18:49He just runs outland himself!
18:50Mr. Ensley, any further outbursts and I'll have you removed to the cells.
18:55I'd like to answer that, if I may.
18:58Yeah.
18:58My wife deserved better from her father.
19:08And if we have to fight to get back what's rightfully hers,
19:14well, I make no apology.
19:17Oh, hello again.
19:29What can I do for you?
19:30I was hoping for a favour, actually, if you wouldn't mind.
19:34But it needs to be kept between us.
19:36Go on.
19:37Mrs. S has been teaching us how to drive,
19:40but she's been really busy with the trial.
19:42And between you and me, she shouts a lot.
19:43So I thought maybe you could do it.
19:46I've got a test booked, but I haven't told anyone in case I fail.
19:51I finish work at six.
19:53Oh.
19:54Thanks, Sergeant.
20:00Hello.
20:01Ken Wofford, please.
20:06And where was this exactly?
20:12Sir.
20:13Someone's reported an abandoned car.
20:15And?
20:16And there was blood in it.
20:18Lots of blood, sir.
20:21Right.
20:32Yeah, Jess.
20:38Hello, Father.
20:40Oh, it's good to see you.
20:42What can I get you?
20:43Er, nothing for me, thank you.
20:45Just a moment of your time, please, Mr. Holland.
20:47Of course.
20:51I heard your testimony this morning,
20:54and I must admit it puzzled me.
20:56Why contest Arthur's will?
20:58If David Ensley is condemned,
21:00there will be no need for litigation.
21:02We were told that the estate could be tied up for months that way.
21:07Perhaps.
21:07But what's the hurry?
21:08But what's the hurry?
21:09Oh, for the sake of transparency, I've, um, I've run up a few debts on the horses.
21:20Easily done.
21:21Yeah.
21:21So, you know, as it happens, somebody wants to buy the pottery and says he's willing to pay more for a quick sale.
21:29Well, his name's Blakely.
21:32Of Blakely Manufacturing?
21:34Yes.
21:35I was surprised to see him at the trial, but then I suppose the outcome is of interest to him.
21:40And I meant what I said.
21:41Josie has a right to the sale of that land, and it will more than cover my debts.
21:49Oh, of course, I'll come clean once it's all settled.
21:54You haven't told her yet?
21:56No.
21:58She's barely coping as it is.
22:01Hmm.
22:01She does seem very fragile.
22:05She said she took sedatives the night her father died and went to bed.
22:09Where were you?
22:11I was here.
22:12Working.
22:14And then I went upstairs and joined her.
22:18Look, Father, I can see why you're suspicious.
22:22Josie, she was young when we met, but we couldn't help falling in love.
22:26It's just a shame that her father never respected that.
22:30I always found Arthur to be a fair man.
22:33Well, you can't always see the signs from the outside.
22:37Believe me, he controlled Josie until I helped her escape from that house.
23:01Looks like it's been here for several weeks.
23:03Do you think you ever owned it was murdered, sir?
23:11This was found empty at the scene of Mr. Goddard's murder.
23:16Mr. Ensley's fingerprints were on it, and according to the logbook,
23:20the exact amount of missing cash was later found on his person.
23:24Listen, I put it to you that Mr. Ensley returned after dark
23:32and was caught stealing from Mr. Goddard, which is why he attacked him.
23:38That's not who I am.
23:39Mr. Ensley, I will not warn you again.
23:42You must not interrupt.
23:43You're going to throw me in, Salzburg.
23:45Please let me say this.
23:46I know what I was, but Arthur showed me a better way.
23:49Your Honor, Mr. Ensley is not in the witness box.
23:51I loved him like a father.
23:56And no punishment can be worse than knowing I'll never see him again.
23:59Apart from Bonnie, can anyone here genuinely say
24:12the prosecution's proven their case beyond a reasonable doubt?
24:17Mr. Sharp claims the inheritance was Ensley's motive,
24:21so why would he steal the petty cash and make a run for it?
24:23It makes no sense.
24:24You're the only one who thinks he could be innocent.
24:28The verdict has to be unanimous.
24:30So when the time comes, you better vote with us.
24:34I will not be bullied.
24:36Not if a man's life hangs in the balance.
24:44Can I tempt you, Father?
24:46They're imported.
24:48Exceptional quality.
24:50Er, no.
24:51No, thank you.
24:53Not one of my vices.
24:56So, er, what's this visit in aid of?
25:00Well, I come out of concern for Mrs. Holland.
25:04I know you tried to buy her father's pottery before he died,
25:08and I would hate for her to be taken advantage of in her present distress.
25:13That's why I'm dealing with the husband.
25:15Yes, but some might say that your recent offer was a little premature.
25:18Mm.
25:21I'm a businessman.
25:23Why wait to be beaten to it?
25:26Besides, it's a generous offer.
25:28But why buy it at all, if I may ask?
25:32You already own a successful pottery business.
25:36It's called capitalism, Father.
25:39The Goddards' land has a higher quality of clay,
25:42but the old man was selling it for less.
25:45I was sick of being undercut.
25:46So, you attempted to persuade him to sell?
25:52Once or twice.
25:54Sent my men round to negotiate,
25:56but that thug of his came at them with a pickaxe.
25:59How disturbing.
26:00I presume you reported this incident to the police at the time?
26:09Hmm.
26:09We let it lie.
26:12Suggesting David Ensley acted in Arthur's defence?
26:16You can suggest what you like, Father.
26:18Ensley is the one in the dock,
26:21and from what I can see, it's not going very well for him.
26:25Hmm?
26:25Is it?
26:26The number plate's registered to Lester Helms from Warwickshire, sir.
26:34His wife reported him missing a couple of months back.
26:38She gave me this to help us find him.
26:42If we ever do find him.
26:44Good night, Sergeant.
26:46Good night, sir.
26:50Ready?
26:51Ready?
26:51Ready?
26:51Ready?
26:51Ready?
26:51Ready?
26:51Ready?
26:51Ready?
26:51Ready?
26:52Ready?
26:53Ready?
26:53Ready?
26:56Yeah.
26:57Yeah.
26:58Right.
27:00You're not, sir.
27:02I've got to go.
27:04But, about before, I'm sorry for my turn.
27:08I hope we can...
27:08I'm sorry, too.
27:09I'll see you tomorrow.
27:15Right, then.
27:16You don't mind us using this, do you?
27:17Um, no.
27:19As long as you don't lock me in the back like you did the first time we met.
27:22Ah.
27:23Well, Mrs Sullivan's taught you all the basics, I expect.
27:28Yeah.
27:29Um, I know how to start and stop.
27:31It's just everything in between.
27:33All right.
27:33Let's see how you do.
27:36That's it.
27:38Okay.
27:39You're doing well.
27:42Whoa!
27:42Whoa!
27:42Whoa!
27:42Whoa!
27:42Whoa!
27:42Whoa!
27:42Whoa!
27:43Whoa!
27:43Whoa!
27:43Whoa!
27:43Whoa!
27:44Whoa!
27:45Whoa!
27:45Whoa!
27:46Whoa!
27:47Whoa!
27:47I'll never pass that test, will I?
28:08Of course you will.
28:09You just need to believe in yourself.
28:10That and slow down.
28:12It's not a rocket ship, you know.
28:14Let's try again tomorrow at 6am.
28:17Okay.
28:18Oh!
28:22Thanks for giving me a lift, Sergeant.
28:24No problem.
28:26Mrs S?
28:28You all right?
28:31Father, I think there's something wrong.
28:34Mrs Sullivan?
28:35I'm fine, I'm just nervous about the verdict tomorrow.
28:44What am I doing here?
28:47I should go home.
28:48Good night.
28:49Burner trial ends today.
29:01Honey, can I talk to you?
29:04Why?
29:05We talk all blimming down.
29:06Someone came at me last night.
29:08He seemed to know that I've been speaking up for Endsley.
29:11Was that you?
29:11That telephone call you made?
29:13Tell him what you're talking about.
29:14He's bribing you, isn't he?
29:16I've got no proof.
29:18He's threatened to kill my husband.
29:20You'd better do what he says then, haven't you, love?
29:22How can I?
29:24He wants me to make sure Endsley's found guilty, which means he must be innocent.
29:29So what?
29:31You're going to risk your husband's life for some jailbird.
29:33Jailbird, just keep your mouth shut.
29:44The inspector will be back in a minute, Father.
29:47Who is Lester Helms?
29:50A notorious smuggler, as it turns out.
29:52Known for knocking off items of luxury shipped into Bristol Port.
29:56He's been missing for two months.
29:58Murdered, presumably.
29:59That would be our guess, although his operation hasn't ended.
30:02If anything, it's increased recently.
30:05Suggesting the killer stepped into the dead man's shoes.
30:08Exactly.
30:09But with no body found, we are out of Leeds.
30:13Ah, Father.
30:16To what do we owe the pleasure?
30:18I'm here about Mrs Sullivan.
30:20Oh, really?
30:21What about her?
30:23I saw her yesterday evening.
30:25She seemed unsettled.
30:26Something about the verdict.
30:28Has she spoken to you at all?
30:30No.
30:31About the trial?
30:32No, never.
30:33She went to bed.
30:34Left early this morning.
30:36Is there something I should be worried about?
30:39Well, probably nothing.
30:43Passing judgment is bound to weigh heavily on anyone.
30:45That jury's got it in for me, Father.
31:04I know it.
31:05Take courage, Mr Inslee.
31:07There is still time.
31:09Now, tell me more about the businessman who tried to bribe Arthur with cigars and whiskey.
31:15I ask because it's possible he's a smuggler.
31:19I wouldn't know about that, Father.
31:21But I can believe he's a crook.
31:24There are too many cents smashed up about your tiles.
31:27We lost a week's work.
31:29The day Arthur sacked you, he said you had cost him takings because of a mistake in the kiln.
31:34What mistake?
31:35A batch of tiles have been fired twice.
31:39Twice.
31:41Odd.
31:46The works are knocked up.
31:50How can I get in?
31:52There's a key hidden behind a loose brick in factory wall.
31:56Good.
31:57What are you looking for, Father?
32:15Something that shouldn't be in a pottery kiln.
32:17There we are.
32:38No time to explain.
32:43We need to hurry, Miss Palmer.
32:45Ladies and gentlemen, I urge you to come to the only natural conclusion, that David Inslee
32:50murdered his employer on that fateful night and must face the full consequence of the law.
32:56The crown rests, Your Honour.
33:00Mr. Inslee, you may begin your closing statement.
33:13Why the cellar, Father?
33:14Because there is something I need to investigate.
33:19If there's any trouble, go to the telephone box on the corner and call Inspector Sullivan.
33:27I will.
33:28I will.
33:36Be careful, Father.
33:37You can't be in here, Father.
33:54Josie, I expected you to be in court, to hear the verdict.
33:59I'm not feeling well today.
34:02Or perhaps you don't have the stomach to see an innocent man condemned.
34:05Why would you say that?
34:07Because I found this in your father's kiln.
34:13It's a gold tooth.
34:15It belongs to the rival smuggler your husband killed.
34:20I don't know what you're talking about.
34:23I think you do.
34:27Your husband persuaded you to help him get rid of the evidence
34:32by incinerating the body,
34:36which would have been the perfect crime
34:37if your father hadn't caught both of you in the act.
34:42Are you sure you're not aware of this thing?
34:49Josie?
34:51Dad, I...
34:52I thought you'd be asleep.
34:55I saw the light on in here.
34:57Is this what you've become?
35:00No, no, Daddy.
35:02It's...
35:02It's not what you think.
35:04That man, he tried to kill Royce.
35:06He had to defend himself.
35:07Please don't tell the police.
35:14Please.
35:16Just let us leave and you'll never hear from us again.
35:21I won't tell anyone.
35:25Arthur would have kept his word.
35:37He loved you too much to turn you in.
35:41But your husband couldn't risk that.
35:45So he murdered him.
35:48No.
35:49No, when we left, my father was still alive.
35:52It was David he killed him to get the inheritance.
35:57The very next night,
35:59after your father had witnessed the cremation.
36:04How fortuitous for Mr Holland.
36:08Perhaps you cling to this fantasy
36:10because the truth is too much to bear.
36:14A truth your father tried in vain to make you see
36:17that your husband is capable of evil.
36:22You're wrong.
36:23He's a good man.
36:24Look, Josie.
36:28Contraband.
36:31Royce didn't kill Lester in self-defence.
36:34He killed him
36:35because he got in his way.
36:39As did your father.
36:41Royce would never do that to me.
36:42He loves me.
36:44He only loves himself.
36:46Which is why he starved you of your family's love.
36:49Josie?
36:52Josie, are you down there?
36:55Time to make a choice, Josie.
36:59A choice your father longed for you to make.
37:02Otherwise, the guilt which torments you will deepen.
37:07Josie?
37:08Please, Father, you have to go.
37:09I am not leaving without you.
37:11Come with me now
37:14and tell the court and the police of your husband's guilt.
37:18I can't.
37:19You must.
37:22God will not absolve you of your sins
37:24unless you face them.
37:28Ah.
37:31Do you break in here?
37:33What kind of a priest are you, Father Brown?
37:38A curious one.
37:39Didn't you hear me calling you, Josie?
37:45What's he said to you?
37:47You're trembling, my poor darling.
37:50Here.
37:51It's time to take your pills.
37:54He's trying to keep you weak, Josie.
37:57You need to find your strength.
37:59Take them.
38:00And go upstairs.
38:03They will announce the verdict soon.
38:06David's fate is in your hands.
38:09Now.
38:09Now.
38:30Inspector Sullivan's on his way.
38:44Is this still time to get to the court?
38:46Well, that's Royce's, but I can't drive.
38:48I can.
38:53Josie!
38:54Open that door!
38:55You're as great for the rest of your life!
38:57Arthur gave me that money earlier in the day.
39:02I think he wanted me to leave because he was scared.
39:06Someone.
39:10I only wanted to help him.
39:13That's why I went back that night.
39:17And found him dying.
39:18That's all I have to say.
39:27Thank you, Mr. Hensley.
39:28You may be seated.
39:33I shall now sum up the case.
39:36Miss Palmer, could we possibly go a little faster?
39:49Safety first, Father.
39:59The jury may now retire to start your deliberations.
40:02Come on.
40:22I can't.
40:24Your Honour, I have something to say.
40:28Don't be stupid.
40:29I can't be a part of this.
40:31Something wrong?
40:32Yes, Your Honour.
40:34Very.
40:37Last night, I...
40:39Stop the trial!
40:40What is the meaning of this?
40:41Forgive us, Your Honour.
40:42We have crucial information.
40:44We have already concluded our closing statements.
40:46Any evidence you may have may be submitted on appeal,
40:49if, indeed, one is granted.
40:51Please let me testify, Your Honour.
40:54Arthur was my father, and I know who killed him.
40:57It was my husband.
41:01If we hadn't gone to the factory that night,
41:13my father would still be alive.
41:17Mrs. Holland,
41:19are you saying that you knew all this time
41:22that your husband returned later to kill your father?
41:24No, Your Honour, I...
41:26I think I just didn't want to believe it.
41:35I'm so sorry.
41:39I've let so many people down.
41:42I've let my parents down.
41:44I know I broke my father's heart.
41:45Arthur loved you.
41:47To the end.
41:48In light of this testimony,
41:54I hereby declare a mistrial.
41:56Mr. Ensley will remain in custody
41:58while the police make urgent inquiries,
42:00and Mrs. Holland will be detained
42:02for further questioning.
42:05Oh, Mrs. Sullivan.
42:24Why didn't you tell us, Isabel?
42:26He threatened to kill you if I did.
42:28It's all right.
42:31We're safe now.
42:32I'm sorry you had to face that alone.
42:39Is that her?
42:41You sure?
42:44Mrs. Baldrige,
42:45wait there, please.
42:47Why?
42:47What's this about?
42:51I need to ask you a few questions.
42:53I haven't done anything wrong.
42:55Come this way, please.
42:56Oh, thank you for coming, Sergeant.
43:05It was parked right there.
43:07I mean, who would steal a car
43:08from outside a presbytery?
43:10Are you sure it wasn't borrowed,
43:11Mrs. Sullivan?
43:12Borrowed?
43:12Well, who would...
43:21Brenda Palmer?
43:23What makes you think
43:24you can borrow Hercules
43:25without my permission?
43:26Not to mention
43:27driving without a licence.
43:28I'm sorry I didn't ask.
43:30I just thought
43:30it would spoil the surprise.
43:32I just passed my driving test.
43:34That is stupendous news.
43:37Congratulations.
43:38Well, how?
43:39Last time we practised,
43:40you were...
43:41I guess you're a better teacher
43:42than you thought, Mrs. S.
43:44had to know for you,
43:45to see her染色,
43:45but I think she obviously
43:46is off.
43:48That's great.
43:50Well, that's good.
43:50Well, it's got to be everywhere,
43:51because we didn't get us,
43:51at that inünüz.
43:52You're a better teacher.
43:53You're a better therapist,
43:54but looking back
43:55at our perspective,
43:56you know what I thought
43:57about× beneficiec,
43:57if it has changed my dreams.
43:58And I don't know what your choice
43:59is.
43:59Sorry,
44:00for wondering what I've been telling you,
44:01that I don't know.
44:02What is this world,
44:02it was verylara
44:03very enlightening.
44:05I'd never hear about it.
44:06You're here.
44:07The pet magaz
