00:00Higgins?
00:06Can't live like this.
00:09Two more of these and I can afford those new hunting boots.
00:14What's wrong?
00:15I requested a raise.
00:17Guess they said no.
00:19And you're surprised?
00:20I can't believe it.
00:21I've given my life to this place.
00:24I've heard there were no raises until next year.
00:26I have a family. Mouths to feed.
00:28What does that matter? Your wife's a moving picture stock.
00:31She doesn't think she should be spending her money on the family.
00:34She says I'm the man.
00:35I see.
00:36No, Roberts, you don't.
00:41I've been here for years,
00:42and yet I'm only making 50 cents a week more than you.
00:45Have you thought about getting a second job?
00:48I've had nightmares about it, but yes, I have.
00:51Let's keep considering.
00:53There's plenty of options here.
00:54Take a look.
00:57Night soil collector?
00:58You can do that.
00:59No.
01:01Uh, Roberts.
01:03Please.
01:05Just trying to help.
01:19Sure that's secure?
01:21I think so.
01:22You're not getting paid to think.
01:23Is it secure or not?
01:25It's secure.
01:27Nope.
01:27All right, hop on.
01:46That's it for the night.
01:50You don't talk much, do you?
01:54It's good.
01:58You can come back tomorrow if you want.
02:00So I passed the test, then?
02:03As far as I'm concerned.
02:06Hey, you want to go grab a drink?
02:07I had a little speak nearby.
02:09Meet the guys, watch your whistle.
02:11I could have one.
02:12All right.
02:13Henry, is it?
02:13Said it is.
02:14Cecil?
02:15Cecil.
02:15Briar.
02:16Welcome aboard, Henry.
02:18Now, I'm not going to have to teach you how to drink as well, am I?
02:21I don't think that'll be a problem.
02:25Help!
02:55All well?
02:57Momentarily uneventful, although I have been speaking with Alexander Graham Bell.
03:01Oh, how is he?
03:02We've been working together on an innovation that will enable transcontinental telephone calls.
03:07Yes, yes, yes, enough of that.
03:09I've just had an earful from Alderman Atkins.
03:12His automobile was stolen last night, not two streets from this very station house.
03:16There has been an increase in automobile thefts.
03:19We've received a number of telephone calls, but the men are looking in it.
03:22Put more men on it.
03:23Although, as far as I'm concerned, they can all be stolen.
03:26Still not a fan of the automobile, sir?
03:28No.
03:29Just a bunch of bloody belchers.
03:31Sir.
03:32Sir.
03:32What is it?
03:33A dead body in the back garden of a house in Ratnavi.
03:36Well, that takes priority over stolen automobiles.
03:39Come on, mate-up.
03:51Lydia, just another day in paradise.
03:54Who reported this?
03:55A neighbor.
03:56Her dog apparently jumped the fence.
03:58She knew that Mr. Fisk didn't like dogs.
04:01Came to retrieve the animal and found this.
04:08Powder burns on his temple.
04:10Shot at close range.
04:11An execution?
04:13It's possible.
04:15Have you been able to see a weapon?
04:17No, Doc.
04:17I've just caught you.
04:18Same time as you.
04:19What a daft, bloody question.
04:20Right.
04:26Shall we go and break the news?
04:34What's happened to Archibald?
04:36That's what we're attempting to determine.
04:39Were you away?
04:41At my sister Edith, the last three days.
04:44Isn't Mr. Fisk all right?
04:45I'm afraid he's been shot.
04:47And he's no longer with us.
04:49Oh, God.
04:50Madam, please, have a seat.
04:51Have a seat.
04:52Have a seat.
04:54A moment, sir.
04:56Of course.
04:58Sherman Woodley.
05:00Detective Murdoch, Toronto Constabulary.
05:03How long have you been in their employ?
05:05Going three years now.
05:07Is there anything I should know about?
05:09Between them?
05:10No.
05:11Any recent disputes?
05:14One man comes to mind.
05:16Derek Alston.
05:18Mr. Fisk had promised to invest in a mining venture.
05:21Alston was undertaking, but he pulled out at the last minute.
05:24So there may have been bad feelings between the two?
05:26None for Mr. Fisk, but Mr. Alston was very upset.
05:30Came by the house a few times.
05:32Angry.
05:33Angry enough to kill?
05:35I don't know about that, but Mr. Fisk was spooked.
05:37He even took to carrying his old pistol around.
05:52Wrong side of town, Brian.
05:54You should know that.
05:55We got the east side of the down river.
05:57Not anymore.
05:58What are you talking about?
05:59My boss has been talking to your boss.
06:01New rules.
06:03New boundaries.
06:08Alright.
06:10You shouldn't have done that.
06:13Hey!
06:14Hey! Back off! Back off!
06:18Is there a problem here?
06:20There's no problem, officer.
06:22It's a minor disagreement, but it's over.
06:24Isn't that right?
06:26That's right.
06:29Just get out of here before I write you all up.
06:31Move!
06:32Now! Speed it up!
06:34Talk to your boss!
06:35I'll tell you to score.
06:37Alright, alright.
06:49You took the tire iron from him like candy from a baby.
06:52No fear at all.
06:54Not my first duster.
06:56You're a tough guy, huh?
06:58If need be.
06:59If need be.
07:01That's rich.
07:08So you think you could take me on?
07:11If need be.
07:20Welcome aboard.
07:21Milton Scruggs.
07:23What are you lot doing lollygagging around?
07:26Nothing going on out there tonight, boss.
07:31Aren't into any trouble?
07:33A couple of graves men.
07:35Now we come to an agreement.
07:36The man upstairs told me we had.
07:38I guess the word didn't trickle down.
07:40Everything turned out alright?
07:42Sure did.
07:43Henry here twisted one of them up into a soft pretzel.
07:46He was just telling us all about it.
07:48Do I know you?
07:51I don't think so.
07:53Stand up.
08:01No, I do know you.
08:03Henry, is it?
08:04That's right.
08:05What's your surname?
08:07Biggins.
08:08That's where I know you from.
08:10St. Anne's Academy?
08:12Yes, how do you know that?
08:18Floyd Griswold.
08:22Floyd?
08:24What has it been?
08:2630 years, if it's a day.
08:28What, you two know each other?
08:29You're damn right we do.
08:31Two English boys growing up in the gas bay.
08:34How the devil did you end up here?
08:36I could ask you the same.
08:37I always thought you were made for better things.
08:41No offense, boys.
08:43I just need some extra money.
08:46You're a good man, Floyd.
08:47Oh, you don't need to tell me that.
08:49I was a bit of a runt back in the day, and Henry here always had my back.
08:54You want a job here?
08:56You got it.
09:00Looks like you're doing well for yourself, owning a business.
09:02I don't own it. Just run it.
09:05Yeah, he's a hell of a boss.
09:06You already got a job, Scruggs.
09:08No need to blow smoke up my ass.
09:10But if you're looking for something to do, you can pour us some drinks.
09:15Grab a seat, Henry. Grab a seat.
09:24What's that?
09:25It's a thank you, for last night.
09:30Damn.
09:30What?
09:31Uh, my pocket watch.
09:33You must have left it in the tow truck.
09:36Cover for me, will you?
09:37I'll be right back.
09:39Mr. Alliston was out of town at the time, and he claims he's secured another investor.
09:45Both claims to?
09:46They could be.
09:47And he seemed genuinely shocked that Mr. Fisk was dead.
09:51Did the lads find any sign of a weapon?
09:53Not a trace.
09:54I see.
09:55The widow Fisk.
09:57She's a lot younger than he was, isn't she?
09:59Sarah?
10:00Well, rich old man, pretty younger wife.
10:04Wouldn't surprise me if she wanted to hurry nature along.
10:07She says she was with her sister.
10:09Well, let's see if the sister backs her story up.
10:11Bring her in, we'll have a chat.
10:14We...
10:14I'm with you on this one, Murdoch.
10:16The desk job is making me feel old.
10:19And I don't like the feeling.
10:43Thank you, Murdoch.

20:17that you and your lover mr woodley decided to kill
20:20we did not
20:22on my word
20:24i have admitted my philandering
20:25but both sherman and i were at the hotel the night archibald was killed
20:29one of you could be covering for the other
20:30i'm telling the truth
20:32archibald and i may have stopped sharing intimacies
20:35but he loved me more than anything in the world
20:37why should we believe you

21:49henry reported it last night
21:52two bodies in a week
21:53both on higgins watch
21:55perhaps it's time to end this
21:56but sir henry has yet to identify
21:58whoever is in charge of this organization
22:01everyone in that lot is guilty of theft
22:04maybe we pull him out and arrest whoever we can
22:06while we've still got the chance
22:07maybe so
22:09or we could let henry persuade his friend to give up his boss
22:12oh speak of the devil
22:14please sirs
22:15hey
22:16i want to see this through
22:18you were nearly shot
22:20you're in league with a bunch of killers
22:21that's just it sir
22:22i don't think floyd is behind any of this violence
22:24i don't think that he's a killer
22:26have you gone soft higgins
22:27just because you held hands when you were seven years old
22:30sir if the time comes and i have to lock floyd up i will
22:33but not for a murder he didn't commit
22:35sir if henry believes he can handle himself
22:38then we should give him a chance to arrest whoever is behind always
22:43fine
22:44but he's on your conscience murdoch
22:46i've got a dodgy feeling about all this
22:48thank you sirs i won't let you down
22:53thank you
22:54mr fisk's financial records
22:58oh my
22:59archibald broke is he
23:01well yes
23:02and it appears the bank was set to foreclose on his home
23:07next month
23:09so if the two lovebirds murdered the old man for his fortune
23:12they're in for a rude awakening
23:14i'd like to bring the two of them in
23:16see how they react to this news
23:18hmm
23:48mrs fisk
23:49are you now ready to tell me the truth
23:51i already told you detective
23:54neither i nor sherman had anything to do with archibald's murder
23:58mr woodley
23:59i asked you if there was anything going on between mr and mrs fisk
24:04and you lied to me
24:06the two of you were carrying on an affair
24:08can you blame me for not being forthcoming about all this
24:11that is immaterial
24:12and it does nothing to lessen my suspicions
24:15the hotel staff must be able to confirm this
24:18the clerk did confirm that you checked into the hotel
24:22but one or both of you could have returned home
24:25and murdered archibald fisk
24:27why on earth would we do that
24:29to gain access to his money
24:30archibald was always very generous
24:33there is nothing he'd deny me
24:34well that may have been true in the past
24:37but there was very little left to give at the time of his death
24:41a number of poor investments left him destitute
24:46well that explains it
24:49i beg your pardon
24:50it explains why archibald was behaving the way he was
24:54sullen and sad inconsolable
24:56how he must have burdened himself with this
24:59it's true
25:00he was in poor spirits months before his murder
25:03it's why i took up with sherman in the first place
25:07archibald wasn't the man i married anymore
25:09but that doesn't mean we killed him
25:13constables are searching your home now for the murder weapon
25:17you are to remain in our cells until it's recovered
25:26sir
25:28sir
25:29no
25:31chief
25:32what is it
25:36has no one ever told you
25:38to knock before you enter a superior's office
25:40sorry sir i didn't expect to see you sleeping on the job
25:44watch it lad
25:45oh he's just resting my eyes
25:47of course sir
25:49typical
25:50he's not replaced my decanter
25:52i bet it's herbal tea
25:55what is it you want
25:55i've been working on a missing person's case
25:58and i think it may relate to what henry's doing

26:25killed his competitor to consolidate power
26:28sir i know it looks that way
26:29it looks that way because it is that way
26:31i wouldn't be surprised if graves's gang were behind cecil bryer's killing
26:35a retaliation
26:36let me speak to floyd sir
26:37i'll speak to floyd
26:38roberts bring him in
26:40and see if you can track down graves's gang as well
26:42yes sir
26:44he begins you've got 12 hours to find the boss
26:47i don't need you ending up as a cadaver as well
26:56tell us what you know about aldous graves
27:02graves
27:04well you tell me sunshine you're the one who killed him
27:09looks familiar doesn't it
27:12this knife was found in your automobile it was also seen in the body of your rival
27:18aldous graves
27:20who was found in the back of a stolen automobile in your lot no less
27:24what are you on about
27:26i thought you wanted to talk about cecil bryer
27:28a good man
27:31shot down in the street
27:33by someone who likely worked with mr graves
27:36likely revenge for you killing their boss
27:38i've never seen that knife in my life i didn't kill graves
27:41we received an anonymous tip that you were the last person seen with graves before he was found dead in
27:48your car lot
27:49this is a setup
27:52well i'm being set up
27:54i find that hard to believe
27:55and i imagine a judge won't swallow that rubbish either
27:59now if you're so innocent
28:01tell us about your boss
28:04i don't know anything about him
28:15you're headed for the gallows griswold
28:18take my advice
28:19start talking
28:34henry
28:37thank god you're here
28:38they're trying to pin a murder on me
28:40do they question you
28:43void i work here
28:44at the station house
28:47wait you what
28:48i'm a policeman
28:51you're a copper
28:54how could you
28:58i took you in
28:59i gave you a job
29:01i vouched for you
29:03and now you set me up for a murder i didn't commit
29:07but some old friend
29:09if you didn't do it
29:10then you should tell us what you know
29:12oh you have some nerve
29:13you know that
29:17all i know
29:18is i met graves the night he went missing
29:22we made a deal
29:25neither of us were keen to spill any more blood
29:27so he ceded some territory
29:28and i handed over some trucks
29:30and then what
29:32and then that was it
29:33we shook hands and went our separate ways
29:36i had no reason to kill the man
29:39we're not looking to give you a life sentence for stealing
29:42we only care about the murders
29:43please
29:46think about talking to detective murdoch
29:54you know
29:55you know briar warned me
29:57said we couldn't trust everyone in the crew who said there might be a rat
30:03and i never thought for one second that it was you
30:16so
30:16ah robins
30:17we're looking for graves men
30:19but they've been in the cells of station house number one for three days now
30:22for what
30:23they were in a drunken bra at logan's inn
30:25ah so they weren't the ones who shot cecil briar
30:28i'm afraid not
30:29ah murdoch
30:31the young mrs fisk and the driver any luck
30:33possibly
30:34it appears archibald fisk had a substantial life insurance policy
30:39so they knew he was broke
30:40and they killed him to get at the policy
30:42that sounds like motive to me
30:44i'm still not sure sir
30:46mrs fisk seemed genuinely distraught at the news of her husband's passing
30:51and i don't think she knew he was out of money
30:54also
30:54we don't know where the gun is
30:59ah the great detective again just the man i was after
31:03you know this fella met up
31:04he's put me away
31:06three separate times i might add
31:08sir this is slippery bill watson
31:11a career criminal
31:13well that's quite the reference
31:15slippery no more
31:16mute robert and i have parted ways
31:18mute robert
31:20yeah he was a tubby accomplice of mine
31:22but now i'm walking the straight and narrow
31:24because i found christ
31:27what can we do for you mr watson
31:29oh
31:31whoa
31:31whoa it's not loaded
31:33all right funny story this
31:35i'm taking my first few steps of freedom
31:38and temptation falls out of the sky and hits me in the head
31:43i'm afraid i don't understand
31:44you and i both
31:45i mean how does a gun fly out of the sky
31:47and why
31:48listen sunshine tell the truth
31:50what really happened
31:50detective you're a man of faith are you not
31:53i am
31:53so you know the good book says
31:56be sober
31:57be vigilant
31:59because the devil
32:00as a worn lion walketh about
32:02seeking whom he may devour
32:05first peter five verse eight
32:07yes but the good book doesn't say
32:09believe in lying career criminals
32:11who tell ridiculous tall tales now does it
32:13sir
32:14um
32:16look at this
32:18af
32:20i believe this gun may have belonged to archibald fisk
32:24with y'all murdoch how's that possible
32:26isn't it obvious
32:32god delivered it to me
32:41god delivered it
32:42and if you believe that nonsense
32:43then i've got 20 acres in timber too to sell you
32:46even if it is a lie
32:47why walk in here and hand us the gun
32:50and why the outrageous tale about it fall from the sky
32:53man's crackers
32:54too many billy clubs up the side of the head
32:56and if he carries on with his cockamamie story
32:58he's gonna get another one
32:59i've spoken with the warden at the dawn
33:02mr watson could not have murdered archibald fisk
33:05because he was in custody at the time of the murder
33:07so another dead end
33:09no pun intended
33:13thank you for your time mr watson
33:15you're free to go
33:16peace be with you detective
33:18and also with you
33:20and especially you
33:23ah so now we're all nice and warm and friendly
33:26but he still doesn't explain how that gun fell from the sky
33:31let's have a closer look at the area where he claims it fell on him
33:41orders are clear
33:42we're to keep working until things get sorted
33:45we shouldn't even be here
33:48briar's dead griswold's behind bars
33:50i mean who knows maybe the cops are watching us right now
33:52shut it tyler
33:53you want to tell the boss you're too scared to work
33:56that's what i thought
33:58i'll handle all messages between us and the boss
34:02henry you hit the streets tonight
34:04tyler you're in the shop
34:07and why is it that we're taking orders from you
34:10we've lost two men sure
34:12that should just mean that the shares increase with the risk
34:15you haven't been here long enough to have a cup of coffee
34:18what i want
34:19is to meet with this boss of yours
34:22and i'm not afraid of him like the rest of you sallies
34:24you must have a few screws loose
34:26now tyler
34:27if tough guy here wants to meet the boss
34:31he's in the building out back
34:33i'll show him
34:34well let's go for a walk henry
34:48you know henry
34:50you might want to keep your nose clean and your mouth shut
34:52i'd hate for you to be a problem like briar was
34:55a problem with you me
34:57well when a general hands down orders a soldier follows them
35:00briar and griswold they thought they were too smart
35:02what did griswold do
35:04he didn't take orders
35:06the boss
35:07he wanted graves out of the picture
35:08and said griswold and graves made a deal
35:10well what's the problem with that
35:11the boss didn't want a peace agreement
35:13he wanted graves eliminated
35:16so i did what needed doing
35:18and briar
35:19what of him
35:20well the boss has griswold and his loyalists
35:23they can't be trusted anymore
35:28they gotta go
35:31i'm sorry
35:35that means you too henry
35:46what have you got for me madam
35:49a theory
35:49i'd prefer a solution
35:52i believe they may be one and the same
35:53so what's all this
35:55these items were found near where mr watson said
35:59that this gun fell out of the sky
36:01what did they prove
36:03well you may have been right sir
36:05of course i was
36:07right about what
36:08sir i believe archibald fisk
36:11took his own life
36:14have a look
36:15at these chinese lanterns
36:25archibald fisk
36:26was ill
36:27and dying
36:29and penniless
36:31but he dearly loved his wife
36:35he had a substantial insurance policy
36:38enough to provide for prunella
36:41well into her old age
36:46but the insurance would not pay out
36:49if he took his own life
36:51so he had to make it appear
36:53as though it were a murder
37:00once the shot was fired
37:02the lantern
37:03the lantern lifted off
37:04and carried away
37:05any evidence
37:06that his death
37:07was self-inflicted
37:14well that's that then
37:16i knew i was right
37:23you're not gonna meet the boss tonight
37:26you're gonna meet your maker
37:27you're gonna meet your maker
38:00you're gonna meet your maker
38:26you're gonna meet your maker
38:27you're gonna meet your maker
38:27of the earth
38:36Scroggs!
38:38Scroggs, you're dying!
38:39You have nothing left to lose!
38:41Tell me who the boss is!
38:43Scroggs, tell me who the boss is!
38:48Get it!
39:06Come to deliver me to the gallows?
39:10No. No gallows, Floyd.
39:14Scroggs killed Graves and Briar. He framed you.
39:21Just like I said.
39:23Why?
39:23Well, I always believed you.
39:25I knew you weren't a killer.
39:27I'm your friend, but...
39:30I am a constable first.
39:33Just tell me who your boss is.
39:36I don't know.
39:38I just take my pay.
39:40And that's the truth.
39:43God, what a god-awful uniform.
39:46But then again, a rat in clothes is already a ridiculous prospect.
39:50You can call me a rat if you like.
39:53But this rat just spared you the noose.
39:56And with any luck, you'll be released from this place in time to see your children grow up.
40:03If you're waiting on a thank you, I wouldn't hold my breath.
40:08It's fine.
40:09I did my job, that's thanks enough.
40:14If you know anything about the boss...
40:16Oh, Henry.
40:18Every man's gotta have a code.
40:21I chose this life.
40:23I'll do my time.
40:29Henry.
40:31We do what we do to get by, right?
40:35That's right, Floyd.
40:42He took his own life?
40:45I'm afraid so.
40:50Why the ruse?
40:53Your husband had a significant life insurance policy, with you as the beneficiary.
41:00But it never would have paid out had his death been deemed a suicide.
41:06So he made it look like murder.
41:09Yes.
41:12And I am duty-bound to reveal the truth in the matter.
41:19Of course.
41:23I wish I had been worthy of his love.
41:26Excuse me.
41:49Well done, son. The violence has stopped. Let's have the automobile thefts.
41:54Just doing my job, sir.
41:56Well, as a man of honor, I'm going to give you a raise of an extra 15 cents an hour.
42:01I never thought I'd say this, but...
42:03You've earned it.
42:04Thank you, sir. Ruth will be most pleased with me.
42:07You know, sir, I spoke to Floyd about his boss, and Detective Murdoch offered him full immunity, but he still
42:12wouldn't talk.
42:14So there is honor among thieves after all.
42:17Oh, it's a shame you couldn't convince your mate to talk, because I would have made the raise an even
42:2120 cents an hour.
42:23Oh, well, sir, do you fancy a tipple?
42:25Too late.
42:25Oh, you can talk about this, sir. It's on me.
42:49The police shut us down.
42:51So I see.
42:53What happened?
42:56Griswold's old friend turned out to be a constable at Station House Four.
43:02Blasted place.
43:05Are we opening up shops somewhere else?
43:08I could round up a few men.
43:10It won't be necessary.
43:14It appears this avenue of revenue is closed to me.
43:20It is.
43:22Until I get rid of that damn Station House.
43:26Once and for all.
43:29Mark my words.
43:31I intend to.
43:42I intend to.
43:48I intend to.
44:00I do.
44:03I do.
44:04I do.
44:06And you.
44:06I do.
44:08I do.
