01:41I'm not saying that other uniform don't shoot you, Miss Cushion, but it's nice to see you out of air.
01:49Sarah? Sarah?
01:55Oh!
02:00You must be the other Miss Cushion.
02:03Isn't this a snappy day, then, eh? For all three of you?
02:07Yes, yes, it is. Of course it is.
02:09Yes, yes, yes.
02:40Just coming.
03:57Have you brought those descriptions?
03:59Yes.
04:00Yes, I have.
04:28Thank you, Mr. Holmes.
04:58Merry Christmas.
05:06Merry Christmas.
05:19Merry Christmas.
05:25Merry Christmas.
05:26Merry Christmas.
05:27Merry Christmas.
05:28Merry Christmas.
05:31There.
05:33It's a start.
05:35Mrs. Hudson.
05:37Mr. Holmes.
05:38How am I supposed to think up yet another present for Watson?
05:41I mean, every year you inflict this agony on me.
05:43Well, it's quite simple, Mr. Holmes. You go to Gammage's.
05:47Gammage's?
05:47Yes, it's in Holborn, a departmental store.
05:50The People's Emporium.
05:52You'll be quite spoiled for ideas.
05:56Gammage's.
06:00Mrs. Hudson!
06:01How dare you take my Espinestra?
06:06I do dare.
06:43Afternoon, Miss Cushing. Season's greetings, eh?
06:46Good afternoon, Wilkinson.
06:47Looks like we're in for a bit more steak before long.
06:49I do hope not.
06:50Soho!
06:57I'll kill you anyway.
06:57Jesus?
06:59Oh my god.
07:02Did you know Jacob?
07:02Good shimmy!
07:05He's dead.
07:08It's so попроб!
07:08He's dead, Peter.
07:09He's dead.
07:19Amen!
07:20Sorry, my god.
07:26What is this, Monsieur Jacoté?
07:29Madame Suzanne...
07:30Our arrangement is that you may sit by the parlour fire after dinner.
07:35Otherwise, I'd be obliged, when you were in the house,
07:39if you would keep to your room.
07:41Your sister Sarah gave me permission, madame.
07:44This is my house, not my sister's.
07:48Even if she said it, which I doubt.
07:50You doubt my word?
07:51I'd be most surprised if my sister gave the run of the kitchen to my lodger.
07:56You'd be surprised what your sister gives.
07:59Very surprised.
08:01I think I'd be obliged if you left the kitchen now, Monsieur.
08:05I don't think you hear what I'm saying.
08:07Susan!
08:13Marcel!
08:13Marcel! Oh, Susan!
08:15It has worked! They've made me warden at the mission!
08:17Now you ask her what she gave me.
08:19Did you give Monsieur Jacoté permission to help himself in here, in the kitchen?
08:27I believe I did once.
08:29I didn't realise it...
08:30Ask her!
08:32What do you mean, what's going on?
08:33Ask her!
08:35You English are such hypocrites!
08:38Now you tell her what you gave me.
08:40What?
08:41What is all this about?
08:42Will someone please tell me what's going...
08:56I see.
08:59I see.
09:01I see.
09:01I see.
09:03Very well.
09:03Oh. You are warden now. Go and live there, then. You'll have quarters at the mission. Go there. I don't
09:14want you under my roof. Go. I won't have you here. I won't. And as for you, monsieur, you will
09:23leave my house immediately. Immediately. Or I will call the police.
09:33Your belongings will be packed and left at the trade when it's entrance for your collection. How dare you?
09:40You sound exactly like mother. What if I do? I thought I'd heard the last of that sort of thing
09:45when she died. How dare you talk about mother like that? It's just as well I am like her. I
09:50don't know what would happen to this family otherwise. Oh. You hold us all together, do you? How splendid you
09:57are.
09:57Oh. Do you realize that Mary has gone away without telling anyone? Good. She's showing some spirit at last. You
10:09call that good? Sometimes I think you're not just feckless. I think you're deliberately irresponsible. Mary is a married woman.
10:19Well, no thanks to you. You stood in her way to the last. Jim Browner was never good enough for
10:27our family, was he? The daughters of Major Cushing, R.E. Never mind, he was a gambling wastrel. Our father
10:37was a...
10:37All right. If anyone has disgraced this family, it's me. I warn you, one day this diet of respectability is
10:46going to make you ill.
10:48Oh. You are so horrid.
11:03Ah, dear Mrs. Larson. Mr. Holmes. Yes. The doctor has someone with him. Miss Susan Cushing.
11:09Oh, you better have one, please. This is.
11:23What's that?
11:25Um, that is a Christmas tree. It's a Norway spruce.
11:31Oh, this is Miss Cushing.
11:36Miss Cushing is concerned about her sister, Mrs. Browner.
11:40Okay, continue.
11:40Um, Miss Cushing's younger sister lives not far from her, just east of Camberwell.
11:48Um, Mrs. Browner visits her every Friday for tea, unless she sends excuses, which is most unusual.
11:57Um, last Friday, the 19th, Mrs. Browner failed to send excuses or to arrive.
12:03So, Miss Cushing has made inquiries at her lodgings, but Mrs. Browner has not been seen there since last Thursday.
12:10If I ask me as though she's disappeared.
12:12Evidently, Holmes.
12:14There could be one or two reasons for her disappearance.
12:17Yes, I know. Either because she wished to disappear, or because somebody else wished her to disappear.
12:22Oh, do you know any reason why anyone else should wish her to disappear?
12:26Mary?
12:27Mary? None.
12:29She's the most lovable of creatures. Everyone loves her.
12:34As to her whereabouts, I mean, I suggest that you try the Missing People's Agency.
12:39I could find you a list of addresses.
12:42There.
12:42Ah.
12:45Charming, eh?
12:47Slightly improvement on that rather sad, I see her at Excel, sir.
13:03Oh, Sarah.
13:06Sarah.
13:07Oh, Sarah.
13:10What possessed you? You've read it all.
13:13The waiting possessed me.
13:15You drive me mad, Sarah.
13:16Sometimes I think I'm possessed.
13:19Where are you now?
13:20Oh, some filthy hole near the hospital.
13:23Thanks to your sister.
13:24I will not let her forget this.
13:29I need a reference if you're going to find a decent place to stay.
13:33Are you going to Belgium still for Christmas?
13:34Yes. My uncle, Miura, stands.
13:37Well, when you come back, I'll write a reference for you.
13:40I'm warden of this place. It'll count.
13:45I love you.
13:50Come to me after Christmas.
14:00Bye.
14:01Oh, God.
14:13Here we go.
14:32The post, Miss Cushing.
14:36Shall I put the parcels under the tree?
14:38Yes, please.
14:47Nothing from Mrs. Browner yet?
14:49Nothing as yet, no.
14:52Did Sugden's include the Madeira in their delivery today?
14:56Yes, Miss Cushing.
14:58Everything's ready for this evening.
15:10Compliments of the season, Mr. Bradbrook.
15:12Thank you very much and the very same to you.
15:27Miss Cushing.
15:29I say Miss Cushing.
15:30Oh.
15:31Sorry.
15:32Mr. Bradbrook.
15:34I dare say your sister Sarah will be joining us.
15:37I'm afraid not, Mr. Bradbrook.
15:39She's warden of the Mission Hostel now.
15:42Her duties to her residence will keep her there.
15:44I shall see her only on Sundays now, I fear.
15:51I'm sorry to disappoint you, Mr. Bradbrook.
15:54Oh, no, no, no.
15:55You haven't.
15:55Not at all, no.
15:57Well, come now, Mr. Bradbrook.
15:59It's Christmas Eve.
16:00To make up, we shall open our presents from under the tree,
16:03straight after supper instead of at midnight.
16:06What do you say?
16:07Very well, yes.
16:09Yes, fine.
16:09Splendid.
16:10Let's do that.
16:11Well, Gladstone will be pleased at least.
16:14There's a treat somewhere for him.
16:34Welcome, gentlemen.
16:35Very good of you to come.
16:36Gal, has he been arrested?
16:38Er, no, Mr. Holmes.
16:39He's come to complain.
16:40Has indeed.
16:41Yeah, he spotted our surveillance of him.
16:43He doesn't like it.
16:44He won't give up.
16:45Oh, dear me, no.
16:49Join the party.
17:03Oh, dear me, no, Mr. Holmes.
17:31Come on.
17:33Yes.
17:34Come in.
17:38Oh, my dear fellow.
17:39You're wearing it.
17:40Well, I had to try it.
17:43What's so good about it?
17:44You see, it stretches forward over the handlebars if you need it.
17:48Where did you find it?
17:50Gamages, People's Emporium.
17:53Hi.
17:54Magnificent.
17:56Parkinson, do come in, dear fellow.
17:58Please, sit down.
18:01What is the news of the grave robberies?
18:03The Camberwell force have been on to me.
18:06An incident down there.
18:08They were wondering if it had any connection.
18:10I don't think it does myself, but I'd value your opinion, Mr. Holmes.
18:15We need to get this nasty little joke solved and out of the way.
18:19Joke?
18:20A respectable lady in company, opening her parcels Christmas Eve.
18:25One of them's a bit odd.
18:26It's full of salt.
18:28She empties out the salt.
18:29What's in it?
18:30Two freshly severed human ears.
18:34We think it was a medical student.
18:35She had a medical student as a lodger.
18:38Post-mortem anatomy can make certain individuals thoroughly callous.
18:42She threw him out just before Christmas.
18:44Bit of a row, apparently.
18:45Anyway, knowing your methods, Mr. Holmes,
18:47I've had the ears left quite untouched at the lady's house, which is...
18:53Here it is, Trafalgar Villa, Camberwell, and Miss Susan Cushing.
19:01Oh, Mr. Holmes, have you come to help me find Mary after all?
19:05I'm afraid not, Miss Cushing.
19:08The inspector has asked me to look into that other unfortunate business.
19:13Oh, that.
19:14Well, I won't have those things in the house, Mr. Hawkins.
19:18If you wish to see them, you must go to the conservatory.
19:22Have you arrested that wretched young man yet?
19:25Just a matter of time, Miss Cushing.
19:30Post my carriage.
19:31Now, now, this student fellow, Jacketay,
19:34was going home for Christmas to Ostend via carriage.
19:37Yes, I agree.
19:39Carriage is persuasive.
19:42The writing is poor, uneducated.
19:45I know the medical profession is notorious for this illegibility, but this.
19:52With a broad nib pan, very inferior ink.
20:00Tard twine, stockholder, knots intact.
20:23Tard twine, stockholder, knots intact.
20:26Closures.
20:27What do you think, Miss Watson?
20:30A ring has been torn from this ear.
20:34They're not a pair.
20:37I suppose it would be rather easier for Jacketay to have abstracted ears from a dissecting room,
20:42which were not actually a pair.
20:44To what purpose?
20:45I know, some kind of disgusting practical joke.
20:49Gentlemen, this is no practical joke.
20:54What first strikes you when you enter a dissecting room?
21:01Formaldehyde, dammit, you should smell of formaldehyde.
21:03And it does not.
21:04This is no practical joke.
21:08This is a serious crime.
21:14Your sister, Miss Cushing.
21:17Mary, at last.
21:21Mary, Mary, quite contrary.
21:29I thought it was Mary.
21:33I've come to take some more of my things.
21:37I bought you a present before we argued.
21:41You may as well have it.
21:42I don't want it.
21:43I don't want it.
21:45What's the matter with you?
21:47Is it another disgusting prank?
21:49What?
21:50Well, he was your friend after all.
21:52Who was?
21:53I don't want your horrid parcel.
21:55Take it.
21:56Let's preserve the proprieties at least, sister.
22:00Proprieties?
22:03You dare to talk about the proprieties?
22:06You've flouted the rules of society all your life.
22:09And you had the effrontery to accuse me of interfering with Mary's marrying that man.
22:15Didn't you?
22:17What did you do?
22:19What did I do?
22:21I did nothing.
22:22You know what you did.
22:24You introduced Mary to other men, corrupting her.
22:29Mary has told me in her innocence.
22:31She accused me?
22:32Mary accuses no one.
22:34You know that.
22:35But I see your hand in her unhappiness.
22:39Nonsense.
22:42Why did Jim Browner start drinking again?
22:45He signed the pledge for Mary.
22:48That's what brought them together.
22:50She pinned the blue ribbon to his chest and he was a new man.
22:54So why did he break his pledge?
22:57Why ask me?
22:59Why did you quarrel with him?
23:01I never approved of Jim Browner, that's true.
23:04But he deserved better than being driven back to drink by your meddling.
23:14I'll hear you.
23:14It's gone.
23:37Hmm, hmm...
23:41I'm back.
23:43Jim.
23:44Hello, Sarah.
23:46Mary wasn't expecting you till much later.
23:48Oh, I managed to catch the tail end of the flood.
23:50Saved the whole tank.
23:52She not here then?
23:54No.
23:54Old Mrs. Cooper's not well again.
23:57Mary's with her.
24:02I said I'd help her with the laundry.
24:05She'll be back soon.
24:12You help her a lot, don't you?
24:16That's nice.
24:31You know why I help her, I suppose?
24:34What?
24:37Why, I'm always round here.
24:39Well, you're her sister.
24:47Can't you be happy for five minutes without her, Jim?
24:51Mm-hmm.
24:52Ha-ha.
24:54Here.
24:56Make yourself useful.
25:15You drop the side then?
25:17What?
25:18Well, you drop this and bring it up the other side.
25:20What do you mean?
25:21Mary doesn't do that.
25:23There are plenty of things Mary doesn't do, I dare say.
25:30Look.
25:31I'll show you.
25:32I'll show you how to do it, shall I?
25:36Now.
25:38Now, come on.
25:40You take this corner.
25:42Right.
25:43Now.
25:44You drop this.
25:49And you bring it up the other side.
25:59You do it yourself.
26:01That's not for me.
26:02I'm no part of that.
26:07Push at women's work at me.
26:08You keep that to yourself.
26:28Mr. Holmes and the other gentlemen to see you, madam.
26:31As long as they don't bring those things near me.
26:46And where is he now?
26:48Mr. Browner was on the South American line when he and Mary married.
26:52But he was so fond of her that he found himself a berth in the North Sea boats.
26:59The London Denhalder line.
27:02And is Mary fond of him?
27:05It was a love match.
27:07Love?
27:08Although.
27:11Yes.
27:13I was loath to acknowledge it at the time.
27:17Why was that?
27:19I didn't think a sister of mine should be marrying a steward.
27:23And now.
27:25How do you feel now?
27:26I think Jim and Mary could be happy.
27:31You mean they weren't?
27:32Well, they were at first.
27:35What happened?
27:38Perhaps you should ask Sarah.
27:40She practically lived there for a while.
27:43I wasn't sure.
27:44I thought.
27:44That's here.
27:52Oh.
28:00Right away?
28:12which ship is mr. Brown is serving with at present? the May morning. she sailed on
28:19the 17th for Belgium and Holland. they were in Rotterdam over Christmas. the
28:26crews draw lots and Jim was unlucky this year.
28:30Mary was to have spent Christmas with Sarah and me. and now Sarah of course is
28:35warden at the mission. are you sad not to have a living with you still? yes I am.
28:46to tell you the truth mr. Holmes things are not well between us. you've quarreled.
28:53what about? it may have a bearing on what has happened to your sister Mary.
28:58I know that. of course it does. do you think I don't know that? I blame her for
29:04everything. Sarah? of course. Sarah. she spent far more time than was necessary at
29:13Mary's lodgings. Jim and Mary were just married making their own life making
29:21their own friends. then Sarah introduced Alec Fairbairn to them. I know it was not
29:29generously done. Sarah seemed to want to shame Jim Browner. I don't know what Jim had
29:37done to Sarah. but she seemed to hate him. I believe that... you believe what? ask her.
29:50ask Sarah. she's here in the house collecting her things. ask her if she did
29:55not mean Mary to go off with Alec Fairbairn. that is what she wanted. I know it.
30:10the message has been received then.
30:31the message has been received then.
30:43thank you for your help inspector. it's very difficult Mr. Holmes. we can't ignore the evidence.
30:50what have we got? two severed ears in a parcel. we've got the medical student
30:55Jacketay who's been thrown out of the lady's house. strong motive. parcel.
31:00postmarked Harridge on the 19th. he was in Harridge on the 19th. that's as good as
31:05you get. your logic seems foolproof Hawkins. thank you. yes I just regret that I
31:11haven't been able to keep it out of the newspapers. they're running the story in
31:14tomorrow morning's first editions. they've also managed to get hold of miss
31:17Susan Cushing's name. she won't like that. poor woman. it's other matter then Mr. Holmes.
31:24you've clearly got some thoughts on that haven't you? it is my belief that a
31:31member of Dr. Watson's profession and possibly some distinction has ever
31:35stepped the mark. the corpses all belong to pugilists amateur or otherwise. what is
31:43the unfortunate characteristic of boxers who have fought too long? well there can be
31:51such scarring of the brain that they behave as if they're drunk. slurred speech loss of
31:57memory and so on. they become punched drunk. precisely. you mean somebody is
32:04studying the pathology of brain tissue? all the best reasons I just say. and their
32:09passion for the subject has outrun their judgment. Sir Marcus Lanyon I'll wager a
32:15month's salary on Sir Marcus. that's precisely his speciality. and he's
32:20impatient to afford. ruthlessly impatient. there you have it inspector.
32:56she's very downed. like this ever since she got back here this afternoon.
33:05miss cushing. why did you quarrel with your brother-in-law mr. browner? what? who are you? what are you
33:16doing here?
33:17this is sherlock holmes. he is investigating the disappearance of your sister mary.
33:24she's gone off with Alec Fairbairn. that's all. why? she had become frightened of her husband.
33:33why?
33:37Jim browner was a drunkard. he offered her violence. he was beneath contempt.
33:44what is your explanation for the severed ears miss cushing? you saw that cardboard box at your
33:51sister's house. those severed ears were meant for you were they not? the message was for you.
33:59you understood what they meant.
34:03Marcel Jacotet sent them. he told me he might do something.
34:09I didn't realize he'd do anything so disgusting.
34:21she's lying Watson. she's lying through her teeth.
34:56girl's outside. excellent. i've been to the shipping line offices too. and? it's as you thought. the may morning set
35:03sail from london for den helder on the 17th.
35:06but a hogshead got loose in a hole. she sprang a plate and had to put in for repairs.
35:12to harwich? to harwich. the crew were given leave on the 18th. the may morning left late on the 19th.
35:20the day the parcel was posted.
35:22excellent Watson. we have it!
35:37mr. holmes. mr. gull. they have telegraphed.
35:44jim browner came off the ferry at bramsgate at seven o'clock this evening.
35:47good. i knew i could rely on you.
35:52and i can rely on you. can i? oh you can. does the name sir marcus lanyan mean anything to
36:00you?
36:01it might. he will be warned off.
36:06and the orders from which you have been profiting will dry up.
36:09but so will the police interest in you. i'll be satisfied with that.
36:17we've acquired a bargain. mr. gull.
36:33oh. i'm sorry. the knots on the parcel were to bowling in a sheet bed.
36:38yes. sailors not. you know that sailors deliberately do not sharpen their knives.
36:45yeah. in case of accidents. hence the crude amputations.
36:52hallies was the key. and browner was there now. i suppose.
37:03browner returned unexpectedly. found his wife with fur bone.
37:10he followed them. he murdered them both.
37:14he severed an ear from each. and sent them as he thought to sarah cushing.
37:22of course. he would go there immediately. he would be desperate.
37:29for her to know that the severed ears were for her and not for her sister.
37:35well that being the case.
37:39the railway is operating as if it were a sunday.
37:44why? because the christmas holiday is still on.
37:48do you realize browner could have caught a much earlier train?
37:52no. i did not know.
38:04no. i did not know.
38:23i did not know.
38:46a murderer before you have even acknowledged
38:48there has been a murder.
39:26Aye, while you may stare, look at me, Sarah Cushion.
39:34This is your handiwork.
39:37What have you done, Jim?
39:39What have I done?
39:42Nay, it's what you've done.
39:45I beg you, Jim, look on me kindly.
39:51Whatever I did, I did for you.
39:57It was you.
40:03You poisoned her mind.
40:06I did it for you.
40:09They have arrested the lodger.
40:12I told them he did it.
40:15They suspect nothing of you, Jim.
40:18You can get away.
40:19Get away?
40:22You think I can get away?
40:26Put it all behind me, do you?
40:28Are you lying?
40:31It is me.
40:32It's in here.
40:34Every last moment of it.
40:37It comes out of the daylight at me.
40:38It goes on and on.
40:39I'll tell you.
40:40I dare not shut an eye and sleep since the dinner.
40:42I'm never without one or the other before me.
40:46May the blood rot in your veins, Sarah Cushion.
40:49No.
40:50No.
40:52I love you.
40:55I love you.
40:57I love you.
41:00I love you.
41:00I love you.
41:01I love you.
41:01I believe you do.
41:03I'll tell you something.
41:04I'll tell you something.
41:05I'd rather have one kind word from her I've killed than all your love.
41:11I'd rather see her breathing one minute more than a lifetime of what you could give me.
41:15Don't say that.
41:16Don't say that.
41:17Don't say that.
41:29She loved me.
41:33That's the rule of the business.
41:37But she knew.
41:40She knew.
41:42She knew I thought more of my wife's footprint in the mud.
41:47than I did of her body and soul.
41:53Whoever would have dreamt it.
42:04And
42:08after who'd rejected Sarah's advances?
42:12I never said a word to Mary
42:14for I thought it would grieve her.
42:17Yeah, I got to see her change in Mary herself.
42:21My wife had always been
42:23so understanding.
42:27How she was suspicious of everything I did.
42:32We began to row
42:33about nothing.
42:35Nothing at all.
42:38It maddened me.
42:41Then this was Sarah's word?
42:43Yeah.
42:44I didn't see it then, mine.
42:49I just saw it all go wrong.
42:54She and Mary were inseparable
42:56and then,
43:01well, then I broke my blue ribbon
43:03and began drinking again.
43:05So Mary had some reason
43:07to be disgusted with me now.
43:12Well, then this Fairburn fella chipped in.
43:17He was a
43:19dashing, swaggering sort of a chap.
43:22Smart and cold.
43:23Educated too, I reckon.
43:24He could talk.
43:25He could...
43:28blind I was.
43:32It was a little thing put me on to him.
43:37I came into the parlour
43:38unexpected one day
43:40and as I came in
43:41I saw the light of welcome
43:43in my wife's eyes,
43:44but
43:47when she saw it was me
43:50she turned away
43:51with her look of disappointment.
43:56There was no one but Alec Fairburn
43:57who stabbed you
43:58a mistake for mine.
44:00Tell you from that moment on
44:01my piece was gone.
44:04Sarah was in the kitchen
44:06and I went straight through
44:07and I told her that
44:08if Fairburn
44:11ever set foot
44:12in my place again
44:16I'd send her his ears
44:18for the keepsake.
44:23I believe I could wish
44:25you had committed this
44:26deed of yours in France.
44:30They acknowledge
44:31the crime of passion there.
44:37You won't let them
44:39leave me alone
44:40will you, sir?
44:43No.
44:46I won't.
44:50When I leave
44:51I'll send an officer in.
44:55I don't like to be alone, see?
45:12I don't like to be alone.
45:16Goodbye.
45:17Bye.
45:23Bye.
46:58Won't be a minute.
47:22She made it go wrong, didn't she?
47:28And you never thought of anyone but me, did you, Jim?
47:36She loved you and she made me hate you.
47:47Yeah.
47:51It was as if you had a secret, you see?
47:55She made me think the worst.
47:59The secret was her loving me.
48:03You should have got rid of her from our lives, Jim.
48:09I know.
48:12I thought it would hurt you.
48:17Look at this now.
48:20I was stupid.
48:22I was stupid.
48:23Like there's a pickle.
48:25Good.
48:39I love you.
48:48I love you.
48:50I love you.
