00:59Right. I need to examine the window at the back of the house through which the intruders entered.
01:05My sympathies, by the way, for having to work all night, Chief Inspector Whitlock.
01:09How could you possibly know that?
01:11Well, it hasn't rained since four o'clock this morning, and both your coats are still rather damp, especially along
01:15the trim.
01:16And though you've wiped most of the garden mud from off your shoes, the knees of your trousers still show
01:20evidence of wet grime encountered whilst climbing across a windowsill.
01:24Well, I'll interview the child and talk to the maid when she's fully recovered.
01:27The Italian ambassador.
01:28The ambassador can wait. I'll go and see the boy.
01:31The boy is very frightened.
01:32Well, he'll be even more frightened if on the next attempt the kidnappers succeed.
01:35Indeed. Thank you, Inspector Bullivant.
01:40Hello. What's your name, boy?
01:43Roberto. Or Robert when we're in England, where Mama is from.
01:47When you were woke, what did you see?
01:49Two men looking down at me.
01:51How were they dressed?
01:52In black. I think it was dark.
01:56Did you see their faces?
01:56I can't remember. I was grabbed very quickly.
02:00Do you remember anything about these men?
02:02They spoke English.
02:05With my accent?
02:06More like Mr. McGregor's.
02:08Mr. McGregor is our butler from Scotland.
02:14Where did you get this?
02:16I don't know.
02:21Ow! You're hurting him.
02:26I'm sorry.
02:28I'm very sorry.
02:30Holmes?
02:32I can't take this case.
02:33What?
02:34But you haven't seen the window?
02:36Or spoken to the maid?
02:39Nor do I need to.
02:40I assure you, Inspector Bullivant is fully capable of solving the mystery.
02:46But, Mr. Holmes, the foreign minister specifically requested that you...
02:49I must reserve my efforts for more successful crimes.
02:52You cannot walk off again.
02:54It's the Italian bloody ambassador.
02:56Mr. Holmes, the names you wanted.
02:58Everyone in and out since 6pm.
03:00Keep it. Add me to the list.
03:03What not?
03:03What not?
03:09Goodbye.
03:49Don't get many of you folks in Manhattan no more.
03:54Hey, lady, if you head it to the wharf, the back door's closer. We can help.
04:00Thanks, but I'm looking for the ticket offices for the passengerships.
04:03Go in there ourselves. We can drop you off. Shrimpy, help the lady.
04:08Oh.
04:10This way.
04:10No, thanks. I got it.
04:12I'm Cooper, by the way.
04:14Amelia. Amelia Rojas.
04:16Pleasure to make your acquaintance, Amelia. First time in New York?
04:19Yeah, just for the night. From California.
04:22Long way, ain't it? For a girl to come on her own?
04:25You'd be amazed what you can do when you don't have a choice.
04:29Wait, where?
04:33Sex.
04:35Drop the bag and I won't slice up your face.
04:37Those only dresses. See?
04:51You came a long way to die.
05:20How much for a ticket to London on the Stella? One way?
05:22Steerage is $30. You got $30.
05:26No, I was just wronged. But maybe we can make some sort of trade?
05:31You want to make my day more fun?
05:34How about something more valuable?
05:37My mother was an inventor. These are blueprints for a machine that boils milk in stores and in bottles.
05:43Why would anyone want that?
05:45It keeps milk fresher for longer, so you can travel with it on trains or ships.
05:50What?
05:51No magic beans.
05:52Here, let me see.
05:55Homemade dresses. Indian trickets. Ten a penny.
05:59Now, oh, what's this?
06:02Uh-huh. Not bad.
06:07A killer used this knife to murder someone. It's not for sale.
06:16Oh, um, that...
06:18That was my mother's. It has her picture on the inside.
06:23I can't trade that watch.
06:25Guess we're done, then.
06:26Wait. Wait. Wait.
06:29Just give me time to copy her portrait.
06:31Would that be okay?
06:32Okay. Please.
06:34Ship sails in two hours.
06:36You don't put that watch in my hand as you board.
06:39Well, then, enjoy New York.
06:40Get on.
07:04Missed his breakfast this morning, so I'm serving it after dark.
07:11How is it this evening?
07:13Oh, in a right strop.
07:15Oh.
07:46Mrs. Halligan, this egg is overcooked.
07:52We've had this conversation before.
07:54Sorry, Mr. Holmes, but last time you said it was too runny.
07:57To accompany toast soldiers, a single egg must be boiled for four minutes and 12 seconds,
08:03unless, of course, it is an ostrich egg, which I do not believe to be the case.
08:07I told you, sir, when my husband agreed we should help with this crisis of my sister and Dr. Watson's
08:12kidnapping,
08:13that I'd only ever worked as a housekeeper, and my kitchen skills were limited.
08:19But you can tell the time, can you not?
08:21You can use a ruler. You can recollect basic instructions.
08:25Four minutes, 12 seconds to bore the egg, three quarters of an inch by one and a quarter inch for
08:31the soldiers.
08:31Quite.
08:33So find me someone who can follow these simple orders, please.
08:43Wait! What are you doing?
08:46Closing the curtains. It's pitch dark outside, sir.
08:49Do not close my curtains. Please.
08:54Will there be anything else, sir?
08:56No, Mrs. Halligan.
08:58Good night.
09:10Lamp and window tonight to show you will observe the threat.
09:15Or Watson and Hudson will pay like you're made.

09:50I don't know.
10:40I saw you drawing earlier.
10:42May I see?
10:46Just sketches.
10:47I promise not to take up too much of your time.
10:52Sure.
10:56Oh, but these are amazing.
11:01The pictures of my parents, they're beautiful.
11:05It must be so wonderful to be so good at something.
11:08It must be wonderful to have such beautiful dresses.
11:12Mama and I have to look good for Papa.
11:14He's to be the new United States ambassador to the court of St. James in London, where I don't know
11:19a soul.
11:20Well, Lady Violet, but I'd hardly consider her a friend.
11:24Do you know anyone in London?
11:26A gentleman who lives on Bakery Street.
11:29He doesn't know me.
11:31How mysterious.
11:33Well, perhaps you can meet people at the ball my father's throwing for me.
11:37Your father's throwing you a ball?
11:39To celebrate my official debut into society.
11:44Afterwards, some duke or lord will marry me in exchange for some of Grandpa's gold mines.
11:48Sounds more like a market than a dance.
11:52It's not very romantic.
11:55But Lady Violet says it's what every young heiress wants.
11:59The lady trains young ladies to be worthy of aristocratic husbands.
12:05Is that your mother?
12:07Yes, that's Mama.
12:09Is she on board?
12:11No, she couldn't make the drink.
12:14That picture of my parents is amazing.
12:17I'm sure Papa would buy it from you.
12:18Excuse me, Clara.
12:20Is this gal bothering you?
12:22Why no, Lady Violet.
12:24She should be in steerage.
12:26Well, I've become very good friends with...
12:29Amelia Rojas.
12:31Charmed.
12:32Clara?
12:35For your parents.
12:37Thank you, Amelia.
12:38Perhaps we'll see you at dinner?
12:44So, will you be joining us at the Captain's table?
12:48I thought I'd have them deliver the quail to my cabin.
12:51Get back below deck where you belong.
12:54And if I see you again before we disembark,
12:58you will finish this voyage in the brig.
13:34Find yourself, laden.
13:47Amelia!
13:48Amelia!
13:50Amelia!
13:52Amelia!
13:52There you are.
13:53I wanted to find you after dinner.
13:55To say thank you for the picture you drew of my parents.
13:58Oh, it's my pleasure.
14:00And Clara, darling!
14:03You should not think we're from different classes.
14:05I don't believe in that.
14:06You should feel free to call on us.
14:10Well, but if I don't see you again,
14:12have a great time in London.
14:13You too, Amelia.
14:14You too.
14:55Can I get anything for this?
15:02Thanks.
15:10Papers, here's your papers.
15:12Hamilton, would you like, sir?
15:15No, thanks.
15:16With day noose.
15:17Go and get your papers, madam.
15:19Here you go.
15:33Nice juice.
15:43Your remains found a servant of Sherlock Holmes.
15:46The mortal remains of a woman who washed ashore of Bermondsey have been identified as Maria
15:53Malloy, servant, recently the employee of Sherlock Holmes.
16:07No light ring.
16:08You know the rules.
16:10Um, no.
16:13No, I don't.
16:14Sorry.
16:16New in town.
16:17Find your customers elsewhere, dearie.
16:19This is a public park.
16:21Oh, I'm not...
16:23Excuse me, how dare you?
16:25I have business here.
16:26On a park bench, with who?
16:29Sherlock Holmes.
16:30Right.
16:31And after you have tea with him, you can play marbles with her majesty at the palace.
16:36I just won't do that.
16:37Yep.
16:38Off you go.
16:39Come on.
16:41Off you go.
17:08Off you go.
17:10Off you go.
17:11Off you go.
17:11Off you go.
17:11Off you go.
17:11Off you go.
17:11Off you go.
17:11Off you go.
17:11Off you go.
17:11Off you go.
17:12Off you go.
17:12Off you go.
17:12Ladies and gentlemen, Mr. Holmes is not receiving today.
17:17I advise you to write him rather than attempt to gain entrance without invitation.
17:22Good day!
17:55Where the hell have you been? Come in quick, we're almost out of time.
18:07I thought the agency wouldn't send anyone else.
18:10Put your bag down. Do you have your uniform?
18:15No.
18:21We could have fit two of you into the last one's gear.
18:24It'll have to do till Mrs. finds you better.
18:26Pull it over your head.
18:28Okay.
18:34Hurry.
18:36Mrs.
18:37Mrs.
18:39Amelia.
18:40I don't care if you're the Queen of Sheba girl.
18:42If you ain't on time tomorrow, it's out the door you go like the three girls who came before you.
18:47Do I make myself clear?
18:48Yes, ma'am.
18:49We're short-handed.
18:50So you'll be expected to cook as well as clean.
18:53Okay.
18:54I beg your pardon?
18:56Yes, ma'am.
18:57Don't just stand there.
18:58He'll want us full English in 15 minutes.
19:04Some people cannot take no for an answer.
19:10The Mrs. isn't a bad sort really.
19:13Just don't let her down.
19:15Make the gentleman a good breakfast now.
19:34Wow.
19:43Enter!
20:04Sorry.
20:06first day.
20:08Where do you want it?
20:10On the table?
20:31Get it while it's hot.
21:03The lid.
21:05I'm sorry.
21:12I should not like you to escape.
21:15May I ask who you are?
21:17Amelia.
21:19Amelia Rojas.
21:20But you're not the new scullery maid, am I correct?
21:24No, that's not why I came here.
21:30Your voice identifies you as American from the West, based on your boots, fallen on hard
21:35times given their former quality and current decrepitude, newly arrived, judging by the
21:41scent of cheap pine and ship's wax as used in steerage, and from California.
21:45Amelia, your belt buckle is indicative of the jewellery metalwork of the area.
21:54Elementary.
21:56For sure, like Holmes.
21:58You also have no experience whatsoever as a domestic, nor any culinary aptitude.
22:05Mr. Holmes, I can explain.
22:08My mother and I lived a long way from nowhere.
22:11At night, she would read stories from the paper about your cases.
22:16And she told me that if I ever needed help, I should find you.
22:23Well, I'm sorry.
22:24Not only can I not help you, these days I cannot even help myself.
22:31Is everything satisfactory, sir?
22:33No.
22:34No, Mrs. Halligan.
22:35Everything is not satisfactory.
22:38In future, kindly check the references of any employee before allowing them to poison
22:42me in my own study.
22:43Pay Miss Rojas one week's wages in advance, terminate her employment forthwith, and show
22:47her out.
22:48And take this, this, look at this.
22:50Miserable excuse for a breakfast with you.
22:55My mother said you were a great man.
22:58She must have been mistaken.
23:02Sorry, Mr. Holmes.
23:03I told him you wasn't receiving, but the chief inspector insisted.
23:07I apologize for interrupting your breakfast, sir.
23:11Paul Anderson, newly appointed U.S. ambassador to the court of St. James.
23:15My wife, Marjorie.
23:18Mr. Holmes, we arrived yesterday.
23:20This morning, we woke to find my daughter missing.
23:23You must help us.
23:24Clara is missing?
23:26How do you know the name of our daughter?
23:29I'll show you.
23:36Extraordinary.
23:37From what I know of these cases, Mr. Holmes, there's no time to lose.
23:40Will you please help us?
23:42I must attend Her Majesty the Queen at noon as incoming ambassador.
23:45We would like to tell Her Majesty that you are assisting us.
23:48May the ambassador do that.
23:50I was on the ship.
23:52I drew a picture of you two and gave it to Clara, but I kept my one of her for
23:55myself.
23:57You're the girl from the ship.
23:59The one Claire told us about.
24:01And look, here she is working for Mr. Holmes.
24:04It's a sign, Paul.
24:05An answered prayer.
24:07Very well.
24:08You may tell Her Majesty I will examine the crime scene.
24:13Bring your maid.
24:14She knows her, Clara.
24:15She might be able to help.
24:40Do not touch anything and definitely do not speak.
24:45Repeat my commands.
24:47But you just told me not to speak.
24:53Thank you for coming, Mr. Holmes.
24:55Can you offer a summary of events leading to the discovery young Clara had gone missing?
25:00We retired early.
25:01Our first night ashore.
25:03A maid brought Clara Coco at nine.
25:06I returned in the morning to wake her just after 7 a.m.
25:13Clara wasn't in her room.
25:15We searched the house, the grounds, nothing.
25:21My wife and I were sleeping next door.
25:25Didn't hear anything.
25:26There was no demand for a ransom?
25:28Not yet.
25:32Well, please wait downstairs with your wife.
25:36Inspector Bolivar, gather the servants.
25:38I shall interview them presently.
25:50Bag.
26:07That's Clara's, all right.
26:10You appear to have the memory span of a goldfish.
26:13I said no speaking.
26:15Well, but I've seen Clara and you haven't.
26:17That's the right color and length for her.
26:19Listen and learn so that your long trip is not entirely wasted.
26:23And one day you may be able to tell your children that you've studied with the great Sherlock Holmes.
26:27Now, the first principle of deduction...
26:29Is that each possibility must be considered and eliminated.
26:33The last to remain, no matter how improbable, is the truth.
26:36So you have read Watson's sentimental little stories.
26:39Well, a parrot may recite even Shakespeare.
26:42Not too many, this room has three exits.
26:45Door and windows.
26:49No, Clara's not the type of girl to go jumping out of windows.
26:55I see two candles.
26:57Yes.
26:58One left by the maid last night, burnt to the nub.
27:01The other is...
27:02Led by whoever came for Clara.
27:04Whom?
27:05Whom ever?
27:06Can you identify your mysterious intruder?
27:10Well, there were constables guarding the grounds, and there's no sign of forced entry.
27:18An insider.
27:20The cheap brass variety often employed by those below stairs.
27:23So your servant kidnapper came in with a candle but left in darkness?
27:37Maybe he had his hands full.
27:42Don't touch!
27:48It's tobacco.
27:49Yes, from the fingers of the carrier.
27:52Watson once tested me blindfold, and I was able to identify 17 tobaccos from smell alone.
28:00Now, this one I can't quite get.
28:02I can.
28:06Well, do not leave me in suspense.
28:08It's California's finest chowing tobacco.
28:11It has a disgustingly strong smell.
28:14And it reminds me of something, something...
28:16Something American.
28:21Laudanum.
28:23Clara was drugged, and carried out unconscious.
28:40Mr. Holmes, are you all right?
28:42I've finished my examination, and must leave.
28:45Well, we were just getting somewhere.
28:46There is no we.
28:48You offered to help find their daughter.
28:50I said I would visit the crime scene, and I have done so.
28:53For now, we must withdraw.
28:54Well, like you said, there is no we.
28:56My mother didn't raise me to quit, or to leave without saying goodbye.
28:59So I'll apologize to them for you.
29:01As you like.
29:02Good day.
29:06Don't tell me I've been waiting on you.
29:09Where's Holmes?
29:10Is he still upstairs?
29:12No.
29:14He had to rush out.
29:16What could possibly be more important than this kidnapping?
29:21It was in connection to a clue he found.
29:24And he left me behind to follow up with the servants.
29:27In that case?
29:28We have had no time to hire staff, but Cassie has been a cook with the American embassy for years.
29:35Impeccable references.
29:36The poor girl was right as nine-pins when I brought her cocoa last night.
29:40I swear.
29:40No one is blaming you, Cassie.
29:44Was anyone with you when you made the cocoa?
29:47The coachman.
29:48He has a supper by the fire.
29:50The coach house is ever so drafty.
29:52And did you leave the room before taking the cocoa to Clara?
29:55Only to attend, Mrs. Anderson.
29:57You rang for a hot water jar, ma'am.
29:59Indeed, I did.
30:00The window in our room was carelessly left open.
30:03We were freezing.
30:04I was only gone for five minutes, and Charlie was there the whole time.
30:07Was he?
30:09How long has Charlie worked at the ambassador's house?
30:12Only recent.
30:13But he was our driver in America.
30:15We sent him over a month early to help get things ready for us.
30:19And he's a truly nice young man.
30:21Well, only one or two odd habits.
30:29Like chewing tobacco.
30:31Only in the coach house.
30:32I'll make him spit out the tobacco before coming inside.
30:36Could I speak to Charlie, please?
30:39Fetch him, Cassie.
30:40But don't say what it's about.
30:42Allow me.
30:46Miss?
30:47Rojas.
30:48Have you worked for Mr. Holmes long?
30:50I mean, were you on our ship, returning from some secret mission on his behalf?
30:55I'm sorry.
30:57I can't answer that question.
30:58I see.
30:59Well, then.
31:00As a fellow American, let me be blunt.
31:03Chief Inspector Whitlock advised me not to hire Sherlock Holmes.
31:06He said in recent weeks that even Dr. Watson, who has been his friend for years, has abandoned him.
31:11And that your employer's work had become erratic, unsound.
31:17And not to frighten you, but the police also said that recently his maid was murdered.
31:23And he will do nothing to aid in the inquiries.
31:28If anyone in London can find Clara, I promise you it's Mr. Holmes.
31:33He will find your daughter.
31:35And he will not give up until he has.
31:39Charlie's gone.
31:40So has your carriage and horses.
31:43What?
32:04Here's your bag from upstairs.
32:07Is that all you have in the world?
32:09That's all I need.
32:11Your week's wages.
32:15At least take this.
32:16It's just bread and cheese.
32:18And a pickled onion.
32:20Thanks for your hospitality.
32:24Oh, and please let Mr. Holmes know that I solved his case.
32:28Perhaps you should tell Mr. Holmes yourself.
32:32Mr. and Mrs. Halligan and I will require nothing further this evening.
32:39So.
32:40Off with no farewell.
32:43Well, you made it clear you didn't want me here.
32:45And you don't care anything about finding Clara.
32:48Of course I want to find the girl.
32:51What did you learn?
32:53Clara was kidnapped by Charles Holroyd, the ambassador's coachman.
32:57I saw him at the ship when he collected the Andersons.
33:00I remembered that he spat tobacco right in front of my feet.
33:04The same awful smell as was on the candle holder.
33:07And he's gone off with the ambassador's coach and horses.
33:10And according to Cassie, the cook, Charlie was the only one other than her who could have put laudanum in
33:17the cocoa, done when she took a hot water jar up to the Andersons' room because it was cold last
33:22night.
33:22And someone left the window open.
33:25Do you know where he is now, this Charlie, the coachman?
33:29Not yet.
33:30Hardly case closed then, is it?
33:33Besides, I still have questions.
33:35Such as?
33:38Such as?
33:40Who are you?
33:42You've studied my methods, you've infiltrated my home, you've ingratiated yourself with the ambassador's family.
33:48Who sent you?
33:48My mother.
33:50For what reason?
33:51Explain.
33:52That's what I came here to do.
33:54Then wait no longer.
33:57It was a few months ago.
34:01Mom, I was finishing drawing up a self-propelled float for an annual parade they have in Los Angeles.
34:09So she asked me to deliver her designs and collect her fee.
34:16Be careful in the city.
34:24Stop at the store and make sure they have plums on your way home.
34:28Did you perform these tasks?
34:30Yes.
34:31It took me three days.
34:33This trip already seems endless and I assume you returned.
34:43Mom, I'm home.
34:45I had to wait for your plums.
34:47The store wasn't open when I...
34:51When I first got there.
35:07My mother always told me that if anything should happen to her,
35:11that I should take this picture out of its frame and put it with her scrapbook.
35:16There was a note for me on the back.
35:20My darling, Melia.
35:23If you are reading this, then I am gone without telling you the truth about your father.
35:30I always said he was an explorer who died before you were born.
35:34This is the only lie I ever told you and I am sorry for it.
35:38Your true father is Sherlock Holmes.
35:45Go to London, find him, Sherlock will help you now.
35:55No mother could ever be more proud of her daughter.
35:58I love you always, Mom.
36:03Her name was Lucia Rojas.
36:17Well, it probably goes without saying the name Lucia Rojas means absolutely nothing to me.
36:24That's not true.
36:28You're...
36:30You're my father.
36:33Unfortunately, you are not the first, nor in all probability the last, to make such a claim.
36:39You've never even been to California.
36:42But I'm as well as.
36:55Wait.
36:57Please.
37:00You never went to California.
37:03But Mama came here.
37:04To London.
37:06She...
37:07She performed in the Wild West show.
37:10And helped design its scenery.
37:13I'm sorry.
37:14I have no idea what you expect this drawing to prove, but you can strike paternity from the list.
37:21If your mother did regale you with these stories, I'm sure she meant well.
37:24Perhaps she read some of the lurid accounts of my cases in the American Penny Dreadfuls and imagined a liaison.
37:31My mother was no dreamer.
37:33She sent me here to find you.
37:36She said that you would know what to do.
37:38But it appears that you no longer care about anything.
37:41What am I supposed to care about?
37:42About why my Mama was murdered.
37:45And who would do such a terrible thing?
37:47Miss Rojas, my condolences.
37:50I'm sure your mother was, in her way, a remarkable woman.
37:54And I hope much less troubled than you seem to be.
37:57Ow!
38:02The great Sherlock Holmes.
38:05I'll solve Mama's murder myself.
38:07And while I'm at it, I'll find Clara Anderson too.
38:12With or without you.
38:24Wait!
38:28Wait!
38:37To be clear, I do not believe for a minute you are my offspring.
38:47By putting that aside for the moment, I do find myself in need of an assistant.
38:55And from what I have seen on your first day in my employ, you are a passable artist.
39:01An eager and intelligent pupil with a surprisingly good open-handed slap.
39:07Please.
39:09Take a seat.
39:16Clara Anderson's kidnapping is a crime in which I may not visibly involve myself.
39:21But you, a girl, newly arrived in the city, and like most Americans, fond of asking far too many questions,
39:31could go where I cannot.
39:34Provided you are truly interested in learning my methods.
39:40If you have something to teach.
39:43I do.
39:48But under some non-negotiable conditions.
39:52Those would be?
39:55You will only undertake tasks I set for you.
40:00You will follow my instructions to the letter.
40:02You will tell no one what you are doing, and you will report only to me.
40:06And perhaps the skills you learn may later be employed to investigate the murder of your mother.
40:13In the meantime, to avoid suspicion, you will remain in your current position of scullery maid and cook at two
40:20pounds per month.
40:21Agreed?
40:25Okay, then.
40:29When do we start on finding Clara?
40:31Tomorrow morning.
40:35Do you have anything else to say?
40:38If my mother said so, then I am your daughter.
40:48Just help me crack the case.
40:52Yes.
41:09I'm sorry to leave you here, but others will be here very soon.
41:15And, uh, you won't be alone.
41:20Hear that?
41:22You're still alive.
41:23I've been here for weeks.
41:26Please don't be any trouble, Clara.
41:29The other men who watch this place, well...
41:33They're not as nice as me.
41:40I have to close the lid now.
41:42No!
41:43No!
41:46If I were you, I'd just...
41:48No!
41:50Try to get some sleep.
41:52No!
41:53No!
41:55No!
41:58No!
42:00No!
42:00No!
42:02No!
42:02No!
42:03No!
42:03No!
42:33You
