31:47known and tangible, Mr. Roundo.
32:13I trust nothing has been touched, sir.
32:15Oh, everything's exactly as it was.
32:18Right then.
32:19I'll need a statement from you and your housekeeper.
32:22Oh, Master, I'm afraid she's still rather ill.
32:26Check upstairs.
32:36Who are these gentlemen?
32:39Oh, Mr. Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson from London.
32:46I've heard of you, Mr. Holmes.
32:49I'd appreciate it if you would lead this inquiry to the official police.
32:54As you will.
32:55I do, sir.
33:01Would you direct the inspector's attention towards the window upstairs of the lamp on the table?
33:06Well, each is suggestive.
33:09Together they're almost conclusive.
33:11Watson.
33:13Good afternoon.
33:16Good luck.
33:17Good luck.
33:23Good luck.
33:24Let's go.
34:00What are you doing?
34:02An experiment.
34:04To test the theory.
34:07Isn't that the lamp that was in Tregenis' room?
34:09Yes, and...
34:11Oh, I see you've bought an identical one.
34:14I purchased it from a delightful little shop in the village.
34:18That's where you've been all afternoon.
34:21There is a single point of resemblance
34:25in the reports that we've heard.
34:27Now, this concern, the effect,
34:32on the atmosphere of the room
34:36upon those who first entered it.
34:38First Dr. Richards,
34:41then Mrs. Porter.
34:43And Roundhay's housekeeper was taken ill this morning.
34:47In each case,
34:50there is a combustion going on in the room.
34:54In the first case,
34:56a fire.
34:57In the second, a lamp.
34:59Now, the fire perhaps was necessary,
35:01but the lamp
35:03was lit
35:04when it was already broad daylight.
35:07A comparison of the oil consumed
35:09in this and Tregenis' lamp
35:12proves that point.
35:15But why?
35:17Something was burned,
35:19producing, um,
35:21an atmosphere,
35:22causing a strange toxic effect.
35:25In the first instance,
35:27that of the Tregenis family,
35:29a substance was placed in the fire,
35:32and the fire would carry the fumes
35:33to some extent up the chimney.
35:36Only Brenda Tregenis,
35:38who was closest to the fire,
35:39was killed.
35:41Her brothers
35:42were exhibiting that lunacy
35:44which is evidently the first effect of the drug.
35:48In the other case, of course,
35:50the result was complete.
35:52So, it's a poison
35:55which works by combustion.
35:58Yeah.
36:02Now, the obvious place to look
36:03was the smoke guard of the lamp
36:05in Tregenis' room.
36:07There, sure enough,
36:08I perceived a number of flaky ashes,
36:11and round the edges,
36:12a fringe of brownish powder
36:14which had not yet been consumed.
36:16Half of this I took,
36:18the other half I left for the police.
36:21We will see
36:24if we can reproduce the same effect
36:26with our own lamp.
36:27What?
36:28Oh, no, Holmes.
36:30That's insane.
36:31I cannot force you to stay.
36:33But I mean to have the answer.
36:38Of course I shall stay.
36:41I thought I knew by Watson.
36:44Would you open the door, please?
36:55Now, would you like to just sit there?
37:08Are you ready?
37:10I'll talk to you.
37:11Bye.
37:11Bye.
37:23Peace.
37:30Bene esto.
37:32Have a shower.
37:32A warm-up.
37:32Two.
37:32One, one, two.
37:37One, three.

39:09I really am. Extremely sorry.
39:33All the evidence points to Tregennis being the criminal in the first tragedy
39:37and victim in the second.
39:39If anyone else came in, the family would have certainly risen from the table.
39:43Then Tregennis's own death was suicide.
39:49That'll be Dr. Leon Sterndale. Would you let him in, Watson. Thank you.
40:02Please come in, Dr. Sterndale.
40:04Seems you're expected.
40:08I had your note about an hour ago.
40:10But let me state directly,
40:12I don't take kindly to being summoned by anybody.
40:16I thought it better discuss the matter here.
40:19No risk of eavesdropping.
40:21I fail to see, sir, what you can have to speak about,
40:24which affects me personally in the most intimate fashion.
40:28The killing of Mortimer Tregennis.
40:36I have lived so long among savages and beyond the law,
40:41that I have got into the way of being a law unto myself.
40:46You would do well, Mr. Holmes, to remember that,
40:48for I have no desire to do you an injury.
40:51Nor are you, Dr. Sterndale.
40:55But surely the clearest proof it is that knowing what I know,
40:58that I've sent for you and not for the police.
41:02If this is a bluff upon your part, sir,
41:03you have chosen the wrong man for your experiment.
41:05No, no, no, the bluff is upon your side, not upon mine.
41:10Now, I will tell you the facts upon which my conclusions are based.
41:15Of your return from Plymouth
41:17and allowing much of your property to go on to Africa,
41:19I shall say nothing except that it informed me
41:22that you were one of the factors
41:24which had to be taken into account
41:26in the reconstructing of this drama.
41:32This telegram from the hotel confirms what you told me.
41:35Now, when we last met,
41:37you asked me whom I suspected,
41:39and I refused to answer you.
41:41Then you departed.
41:42But you didn't go home.
41:44Oh, no, Dr. Sterndale.
41:46You went to the vicarage.
41:50And you went there for some time.
41:52How do you know that?
41:53I followed you.
41:56I saw no one.
41:57That is what you may expect to see when I follow you.
42:01You spent a restless night.
42:06We made certain plans.
42:09And then in the early hours,
42:10you proceeded to put them into action.
42:14You returned to the vicarage.
42:18You collected some distinctive red gravel
42:21from the cliff path.
42:28The house by now is in daylight.
42:32But the inhabitants were not stirring.
42:36You threw some red gravel up
42:38at the window of the large arch against.
42:40That is too late,
43:01Let's go, sir.
43:04Thank you, Mr. Farmer Amund.
43:08most importance you entered through the sitting room window you had an interview a short one
43:25and you walked up and down the room you withdrew as you had come you were wearing the same pair
43:36of studied walking shoes which at the present moment are upon your feet
43:43when mortimer trigonis was there
43:50the ring you gave brenda trigonis
43:57yes
44:02yes
44:21for years i loved her for years she loved me
44:30there is the secret of the cornish seclusion
44:34which people so marveled at
44:39it brought me close to the one person on this earth
44:43who was dear to me
44:48i couldn't marry her for i had a wife who left me but whom by the deplorable laws of england
44:56i could not
44:58divorce
45:00for years brenda waited for years i waited
45:11and this was what we waited for
45:19randri knew
45:21he was in our confidence hence his telegram to me at blimith
45:25what was my baggage or Africa to me
45:30when I learned that such a fate had befallen my darling.
45:36There you have the missing clue to my actions, Mr. Holmes.
45:54I understand that you, sir, are a doctor of medicine.
45:58Have you ever heard of Radix pedis diaboli?
46:03Devil's foot root?
46:06No, I can't say that I have.
46:08No.
46:09Well, it is no reflection upon your professional knowledge.
46:12For I believe that save for one sample in a laboratory in Buddha,
46:16there is no other specimen in Europe.
46:18It is used as an ordeal poison
46:21by the medicine men in certain districts of West Africa.
46:25And it is kept as a secret by them.
46:32You already know so much, Mr. Holmes.
46:35It is clearly to my interest that you should know all.
46:41I've already explained the relationship
46:44in which I stood to the Tregenius family.
46:47There had been a quarrel about money which estranged this man
46:50Mortimer, a sly, subtle, scheming man.
46:55But for Brenda's sake,
46:57I was friendly with her brother.
46:59One day, a few weeks ago,
47:01he came to my cottage
47:03and I showed him some of my African curiosities.
47:07Among other things,
47:09I exhibited the devil's foot.
47:13Poison, you say?
47:15Fascinating.
47:16You wouldn't think so if you were to try it.
47:19The smallest amount could be fatal.
47:21In this powder form,
47:23it reacts instantaneously when burned.
47:26It stimulates those brain centers
47:28which control the emotion of fear.
47:31Madness,
47:32or death,
47:34is the fate of the unfortunate native
47:36who is subjected to the ordeal
47:39by the priest of his tribe.
47:40Can he be detected?
47:43Not by European science.
47:47A few days later,
47:49my cottage was broken in two.
47:51But since nothing
47:52seemed to have been taken,
47:54I gave the matter no heed
47:55until Mr. Roundy's telegram
47:57arrived at Plymouth.
48:00This villain, Mortimer,
48:03had thought that I would be at sea
48:04before news reached me
48:05and that I should be lost
48:07for years in Africa.
48:10But of course,
48:11I returned immediately
48:13and I could not hear the details
48:15without being assured
48:18that it was my poison
48:20which had been used
48:22and that Mortimer Tregennis himself
48:25was the murderer.
48:28My soul cried out for revenge.
48:33You murdered her.
48:35For money,
48:36you murdered your own sister.
48:39You can't prove that.
48:41No jury in the land
48:42would believe you.
48:43I'm my own jury,
48:45Mr. Tregennis.
48:46Judge,
48:48jury,
48:49and executioner.
49:16I lit the lamp.
49:19I put the powder above it.
49:38In five minutes, he died.
49:43My God, how he died.
49:48But my heart was flint.
49:52For he endured nothing
49:54which my innocent darling
49:56had not suffered before him.
50:05You can take what steps
50:06you like, Mr. Holmes.
50:10But there can be no man living
50:13who fears death
50:14less than I do now.
50:25What were your plans?
50:29I was intending
50:30to bury myself
50:31in Central Africa.
50:34My work there
50:35is but half done.
50:44Go ahead and do the other half.
50:50I, for one,
50:51am not prepared
50:52to stop you.
51:03God bless you.
51:05Both of you.
51:18Not for the first time, Holmes.
51:20You presume to take the law
51:22into your own hands.
51:27I have never loved.
51:31But if I did,
51:33and if the woman I had loved
51:35had met with such an end,
51:37I might act,
51:39even as our lawless lion hunter
51:41has done.
51:44Wouldn't you?
51:47Yes, I suppose so.
51:50But that's not the point.
51:51The point is,
51:52why should I do the work
51:53of the official police?
51:56And as you're very fond
51:57of telling me,
51:59I'm on holiday!
52:00I'm on holiday!
52:03I'm on holiday!
52:04I'm on holiday!
52:15I'm on holiday!
52:15And she's on holiday!
52:28And, you know,
52:34I'm here.
