00:14Dash, dash, dash, dot, dot, dot, dot.
00:17Are you all right, Henry?
00:20I'm learning to speak Morge code.
00:22To what end?
00:24Well, it was George's idea.
00:26In his latest letter, he said,
00:27in the future, we'll all be speaking to machines.
00:30I want them to be able to understand.
00:32And what did you just say?
00:35I said, oh.
00:37Oh.
00:38You know, there has been a long interest
00:40in adopting a universal language everyone can speak.
00:43That's what I'm talking about.
00:45So you chose Morse code?
00:49Oh, thank goodness you're here.
00:53Detective Watts and Constable Higgins.
00:55Hallie Hobbs.
00:56I understand a painting has gone missing?
00:59Yes, it was stolen last night.
01:01Oh, good Lord, what now?
01:07I told you!
01:09The other wall!
01:11What's going on?
01:12Whoa.
01:13Look at this.
01:16Oh, my goodness.
01:18Oh, my goodness.
01:38The bones appear to have been there for some time.
01:41Could be decades.
01:43And the portrait was only reported missing yesterday?
01:46Is it likely the cases are related?
01:49Probably not.
01:50Still.
01:51Oh, right.
01:52I'll look into this.
01:53See what you can find out about a possible theft.
01:56What have you, Miss Hart?
01:57Man or woman?
01:58When I reassemble the pieces, I'll have a better idea.
02:02Hmm.
02:02Not much clothing remains.
02:05Perhaps the insects got to the corpse?
02:07Maggots?
02:08Moths?
02:08Flies?
02:09Heat and moisture may have accelerated the decomposition as well.
02:12Sir, do you think it's possible that someone climbed in here and got stuck?
02:16There isn't much room.
02:19Rent-force trauma fractured the bone.
02:21Possibly fatal.
02:23Right.
02:23Perhaps they were killed and then sealed up in here.
02:27Sir, have a look at this.
02:31Detail is certainly unique enough.
02:33Perhaps we can date its manufacture.
02:35Henry, see if you can track down where and when this was made.
02:38Sir.
02:47Um, I don't think the blow to the skull is what killed our victim.
02:54No?
02:55Uh, no.
02:56There are many scratches inside this wall.
02:59The victim tried desperately to claw their way out.
03:04That wall was bound to crack sooner or later.
03:06No point in blaming my people.
03:07Uh, I actually want to talk about the theft of the portrait.
03:10Miss Hobbs and Donnelly already asked me about that.
03:13You and your men have been in and out at all hours, right?
03:17Well, wait a minute.
03:18If you think, these are good, hard-working men.
03:20Doubt they have much use for a family portrait.
03:23Right.
03:23But did you see anything or anyone suspicious while working?
03:27People coming in and out of here all day.
03:30Mr. Fisher, have you completed your work?
03:33Nothing I can do about the sitting room until they let me in again.
03:36It's a crime scene.
03:38Then you at least help Miss Hobbs in the library.
03:42You know where to find me.
03:44Was the painting taken from there?
03:46Yes.
03:47What would you estimate to be the value of this portrait?
03:49Only sentimental, though it meant a great deal to Miss Hobbs.
03:53Can you describe it?
03:54It was of Hallie, her father and late mother.
03:57She was only a baby at the time.
04:00The family stood in front of the Hopewell Rocks.
04:03New Brunswick?
04:04Mm-hmm.
04:04Before they moved to Toronto.
04:06And I came under their employ.
04:09How many entrances to the house?
04:12The main hall?
04:13Kitchen?
04:13The library?
04:14The servants' entrance?
04:15The morning room?
04:16So many.
04:17Are they kept locked?
04:18I've never had a problem.
04:21Strange they didn't take anything else.
04:23Perhaps there's more to this portrait than meets the eye.
04:26Miss Hobbs, had any work previously been done to the wall prior to finding the remains?
04:33Not for as long as we've been living here, right, father?
04:35Hmm.
04:37Do you recall anyone going missing through the years?
04:40No.
04:40And how long has the home been in the family?
04:43My father built this home in 1812.
04:47Mr. Hobbs, so you've owned the home for over a century.
04:51Father, you're thinking about the St. John house.
04:54I know my own life, child.
04:56I'm sorry.
05:01My father is confused these days from age.
05:04I just agree or he becomes agitated.
05:05But I know for certain we bought this home in 1887.
05:09Oh.
05:09Do you know who the previous owners were?
05:11I believe the house had been repossessed from the Morton family.
05:14Any idea where I might find them?
05:16Oh, I was very young.
05:18But I do know my father dealt with the Bank of Toronto.
05:20Perhaps they know where the Mortons ended up.
05:23Those criminals, they deserve what came to them.
05:27I beg your pardon, sir?
05:29The Mortons.
05:31Dirty Irish, the lot of them.
05:33Oh, I'm so sorry.
05:34He doesn't mean...
05:35Perhaps I should take him to rest.
05:37No, I...
05:37There were a number of valuables at hand, many smaller and easier to carry.
05:43So why steal a large painting?
05:45I arranged a meeting with an art dealer to inquire.
05:48Miss Newsom, your file on the Miller case.
05:50Thank you for this.
05:52And what have we learned about the previous owner of the Hobbs' home?
05:54The property office has cleared it up.
05:57The Morton family built the home in 1852 and then lost it to the bank in 1884.
06:02They were, however, the only other family to have owned the home.
06:06So perhaps the remains are connected to them.
06:08The financial straits could have made for desperate times.
06:11Unfortunately, I don't know much more about the family.
06:14The records only say so much, and Mr. Hobbs' memory is unreliable.
06:18You found a body at the Hobbs' house?
06:19I went to school with Hallie.
06:21Oh, so you know them well.
06:24Hardly.
06:25In fact, I was surprised to be invited to her fancy dress ball this evening.
06:28The theme is Extraordinary Couples from History in the Written Word.
06:32Ah, yes.
06:33And some of the preparations.
06:35A grand affair for the Gilded class.
06:38If you need to know more about the Mortons,
06:40perhaps you could accompany Miss Newsom.
06:44Oh.
06:46I don't have a costume.
06:48I'm sure we could find you something.
06:49It's not really something I...
06:51But there will be people who knew them there.
06:53And the Gilded class has a long memory for scandal.
06:56And people do tend to speak more freely behind a mask.
07:06Definitely Sefton.
07:07His early work.
07:09Sefton.
07:10Sefton Bellamy.
07:11Tell me, why didn't Constable Crabtree come calling to seek my counsel?
07:15It's been too long.
07:16He accepted a position with the Royal Newfoundland Constabulary.
07:21All the way to Newfoundland.
07:23And without a word to me, I'm wounded.
07:25It was quite sudden.
07:27So, is this painting valuable?
07:29Yes.
07:31The composition's all off,
07:32but Sefton Bellamy's work is all the rage right now.
07:35Interesting.
07:53Nice change from being an unescorted woman at these events.
07:57People talk.
08:00Is Miss Hobbs a regular on the Toronto social scene?
08:06She's actually a bit of a shut-in.
08:08Always has been.
08:10She never talked to anybody at school unless it was regarding our studies.
08:13And her father's men would collect her right after classes.
08:17Perhaps this is her way of spreading her wings.
08:21Miss Newsome.
08:22Detective Murdoch.
08:24Might I introduce you to Anais Talbot?
08:27Roy has talked so much about you.
08:29Quite a phenomenon, aren't you?
08:30Oh, thank you.
08:32That's lovely.
08:33You're trying the Miller case.
08:34It's all in the news.
08:36He jokes that you're out for his job.
08:38Mm-hmm.
08:39Well, it's not a joke.
08:40It's exactly what I'm after.
08:42Would you please excuse us?
08:46Remember the mission.
08:47We are looking for information on the Mortons.
08:49Mm-hmm.
08:51Effie Newsome.
08:53Oh, it's Hallie.
08:54Oh!
08:55I don't think any of our other school chums made it.
08:59Well, it's their loss.
09:00This is quite the soiree.
09:01And you've come with Detective Murdoch.
09:03Hello.
09:05Mm-hmm.
09:05Apologies for talking business, but do you know anyone here who may have known the Mortons for the investigation?
09:12Um, well, um, let me...
09:16Let me introduce you to Mrs. Willoughby, our neighbor.
09:19Hello.
09:20Detective Murdoch, Toronto Constabulary, and Crown Attorney Effie Newsome.
09:24Ah.
09:25As Carmen and Escamillo.
09:28A fiery and tragic couple.
09:31But, uh, we're colleagues in reality.
09:34Of course.
09:35If you'll excuse me, I should check on my father.
09:38Detective Murdoch is looking for information on the Morton family.
09:41Why, they used to live right here.
09:43Yes.
09:44Um, how well did you know them?
09:47Darling, could you get us some drinks, please?
09:51Those boys were rowdy.
09:53Always cavorting with the wrong kind of woman.
09:57Throwing money around as though it grew on trees.
10:01Um, what can you tell me about the last days before the bank took the home back?
10:08Well, those two were fighting like something fierce.
10:11Brotherly rivalry?
10:12They fought everyone.
10:13But Kieran and Finbar, they kept their worst for each other.
10:19What did you hear of them last?
10:22Finbar, he was the younger one, passed from consumption.
10:27Plenty of weepy women at that funeral.
10:31And, uh, when was this?
10:331884, if memory serves.
10:35And Kieran?
10:36Well, he just up and left, back to Ireland.
10:39It was later that same year when the bank took this place.
10:43One day, he was just gone.
10:46Didn't even say goodbye.
10:59That sounds like Spanish or Italian.
11:01I don't recognize it.
11:03Esperanto.
11:04It means do not keep to yourself the secret of your heart, my friend.
11:08Rebenjanath Tagore.
11:10But I think I prefer the original Bengali.
11:12Some things do get lost in translation.
11:15Sorry to interrupt.
11:17I was told I might find you here.
11:18You found me.
11:19How can I help you, Mr. Germain?
11:21Someone contacted me looking to sell an original Bellamy.
11:24Portraiture, circa 1886.
11:26He said he'd be in first claim.
11:28Oh, very good.
11:30I'll, uh, leave you to it.
11:33Please.
11:36He seems cultured.
11:39It's about work.
11:41I wish you could see that part of your life.
11:43It's so much of who you are.
11:46I'm, I'm sorry I should have introduced you.
11:49No, it's fine.
12:03Look at this.
12:05That is a misrepresentation of our evening.
12:08Does this not bother you?
12:09You're a married man.
12:11Surely this isn't a recutable news source.
12:13Well, these days it doesn't matter where people read something.
12:16They just believe it.
12:18I will call today and impress upon them that they must print a retraction.
12:24I can confidently say this person was a male.
12:26There was a lot of wear to the pubic symphysis, which could mean he was older.
12:32I have some reason to believe that this was Kieran Morton, but he was only in his late 20s.
12:38Well, it could be him.
12:40The wear to the joints indicate an individual who endured hard physical labor.
12:44Well, I suppose he did work in his family's warehouses from an early age.
12:49If you have a photograph of him, we could compare it to a facial reconstruction.
12:53Right.
12:55And the paper fragment you mentioned on the telephone.
12:58Right.
13:00Well, I found it amongst the bones.
13:03It's small, but...
13:10It's illegible.
13:11Perhaps my infrared camera could help.
13:14It does look like ink.
13:16Isn't infrared a better fit for carbon particles?
13:19Good point.
13:20Well, I also have my ultraviolet light.
13:28Butterscotch.
13:43Well done.
13:44This is quite a piece.
13:47Such exquisite form, striking color.
13:51Who's the artist?
13:52Oh, who knows?
13:53Picked up in Chinatown for a dime.
13:57Oh, no.
13:58You!
14:00Get out of my way!
14:08Dime, you said?
14:17Want to take the portrait, Mr. Fisher?
14:19Did you recognize Sefton Bellamy's work?
14:22I don't know who this Bellamy is.
14:25I just wanted to take something.
14:26For the money?
14:28My life is an easy street like it is for them.
14:31You're a tradesman.
14:32You make an honest living.
14:33Still not enough to put food on the table for my family.
14:35You telling me that's right?
14:37What's right and wrong isn't what's at issue here.
14:39You broke the law.
14:43You see them hosting their big parties,
14:45acting like kings and queens.
14:47I wanted to take something that mattered to them.
14:50Something money can't buy.
14:51What you took was a portrait worth upwards of $300.
14:55$300?
14:56I could have fed my kids for three years on that.
15:00And the criminal code recommends a 10-year sentence
15:03for theft of anything over 50.
15:12Sir, it's a badge of honor to be written up
15:15in the gossip pages, if you ask me.
15:16I wasn't asking.
15:18Bruce gets written about old times, sir.
15:20I sometimes think that she's trying to.
15:23Anything else?
15:25Oh, yes, sir.
15:26The button found with the bones
15:28from the Sauvageau Aberdashery, established 1886.
15:32Something wrong, sir.
15:33Well, that rules out the Morton family
15:35as suspects or victims
15:36since they lost the home to the bank in 1884.
15:40Whoever died with those buttons on them
15:42has to be connected to the Hobbes family.
15:44But, sir, they said that the wall
15:46hadn't been worked on after they moved in.
15:48Someone's mistaken.
15:50Or lying.
15:53Hmm.
15:57Their actions don't speak well of this office,
16:00Miss Newsom.
16:00You know full well that that photograph
16:02was taken out of context.
16:04I'm sure the editor will be issuing a retraction.
16:07Of the tattle?
16:08Not likely.
16:10And it seems the damage is already done.
16:12Well, it's frightening to think of a world
16:13where cameras become commonplace.
16:15I look forward to it.
16:17It'll force people to comport themselves
16:18with restraint.
16:19You have no issue with my capability
16:21as an attorney being thrown into question
16:24by mere gossip?
16:25These days, in the court of public opinion,
16:28your image is more important than your arguments.
16:30You need to be more careful.
16:39I was very glad to hear the portrait was recovered.
16:42Have I been called in to retrieve it?
16:45Actually, I had more questions
16:47regarding the human remains.
16:50Have you identified the poor soul?
16:52Not as yet.
16:54Mr. Donnelly,
16:55how long have you been with the family?
16:58I was hired in 1887.
17:01Miss Hobbs told me that wall was never worked on
17:04since the family moved in.
17:06But I have reason to believe
17:08the renovations took place after 1886.
17:12Oh, yes.
17:12It was quite a process.
17:15Mr. Hobbs wanted to have
17:16all the latest conveniences.
17:18That was right when they moved in.
17:21Miss Hobbs was very young.
17:22But you remember it.
17:25I do.
17:25And yet you chose not to tell
17:28a member of our constabulary
17:29after we found a body.
17:32I do apologize.
17:33But there were renovations
17:35throughout the home at that time.
17:36I don't recall that specific area
17:39in the sitting room being worked on.
17:41What kind of renovations?
17:43The radiators with a boiler,
17:45full plumbing,
17:47even electric wiring.
17:50I'd like you to think
17:52very carefully back to that time.
17:56Do you recall anything strange
17:59about the family,
18:00the staff,
18:01the installations?
18:02There was a dispute with contractors,
18:06but it was nothing.
18:08Tell me.
18:09Our foreman had a wage conflict
18:12with a mason, I think.
18:14Man just didn't show up for work.
18:16I assisted for a few days,
18:18but we found a replacement soon after.
18:21Do you recall their names?
18:23I'm afraid not.
18:28One more thing,
18:31we found a fragment of paper
18:33with the deceased
18:34and on it was
18:35only one word,
18:38butterscotch.
18:39Does that mean anything to you?
18:43Perhaps it's an item
18:44from a grocery list?
18:47When can I take receipt of the painting?
18:50When we are finished with it.
18:52In the meantime,
18:52you can tell Miss Hobbs
18:53that it is safe and sound
18:55here with me.
19:02Thank you, Henry.
19:04Mr. Donnelly mentioned
19:05a contractor
19:06who did the renovations
19:07on their home in 1887.
19:08Could you please track him down?
19:10Where do I serve?
19:12I've noticed something strange
19:14about this painting.
19:15Do you see how the light
19:17reflects differently
19:19in this area?
19:21I do.
19:23It's because a different varnish
19:25has been used.
19:26Also, the brush strokes
19:27seem to have raised the paint.
19:30I believe an alteration
19:31or repair
19:32has been done
19:33to this area.
19:34Hmm.
19:36Do you think
19:36it's hiding something?
19:37It could be.
19:39Now, if I were to remove
19:40the top layer
19:41of this area...
19:42No, detective.
19:43We can't just permanently
19:44alter someone's private property
19:46on a loose theory.
19:50Some artists
19:51will sketch
19:52their subjects
19:53with charcoal
19:54prior to laying on
19:55any paint.
19:56So I understand,
19:57but what does it matter?
19:59Perhaps my infrared film
20:01could reveal
20:01what this alteration
20:03is hiding.
20:15I worry it's only getting worse,
20:18even with the retraction.
20:19People read the tattle
20:21to unwind.
20:21No one takes it seriously.
20:24Besides,
20:24I know a certain someone
20:26with a subscription.
20:27Now cancelled.
20:29Thank you very much.
20:30Well, I wouldn't worry
20:31about it too much.
20:32The world will be on
20:33to a new scandal tomorrow.
20:35Here's some more
20:36to help you forget
20:36about today.
20:44Did your friend
20:45end up helping you
20:46with the case
20:46you were working on?
20:47I wouldn't call
20:48Mr. Germain
20:49a friend, per se.
20:51Sorry.
20:51I speak seven languages.
20:52Sometimes my English...
20:53He's more of a consultant.
20:56And a useful one.
20:57He caught the thief.
20:59He just seems
21:00so familiar.
21:01He did.
21:02It was his last.
21:04Let me introduce you
21:06to some friends
21:07who are also colleagues.
21:09Sergeant,
21:10this is Miss Violet Hart
21:12and Miss Effie Newsome.
21:14Oh,
21:15Crown Attorney Newsome.
21:16Yes.
21:17There's so many accolades.
21:19The Toronto Gazette
21:20called you a virtuoso
21:21in the courtroom.
21:21Oh,
21:22thank you.
21:24And your sweetheart,
21:25Detective Murdoch,
21:26will he be joining us tonight?
21:27No,
21:27he is not my sweetheart.
21:30No,
21:30of course not.
21:31Oh, my God.
22:01It seems the Hobbs family has erased someone from their history.
22:07Do you think you can have all the files on the Miller case sent to my office by lunch?
22:10Hoping to get up to date on the latest by the end of the day.
22:13I'm perfectly capable of handling that file myself, thank you.
22:18Crown attorney Burke didn't tell you?
22:20What?
22:22Excuse me.
22:26It would seem someone is intent on sullying your reputation.
22:31You've been removed from the case.
22:39This could take some time.
22:42It's a painstaking process.
22:44I am enwrapped in your meticulousness.
22:55Is there no chance you'll take off both layers with one stroke?
23:05Oh, jeez.
23:08Just...
23:09There's no other technological solution?
23:12No.
23:13Just a great deal of focus and effort.
23:18I see.
23:19Well, I was on my way to help Miss Hart with something.
23:22Oh.
23:23Did she tell you what?
23:24She did not.
23:27There's only one way to find out.
23:31Miss Hart!
23:32Ah, good.
23:33You're here.
23:34Hold this.
23:35I've been working on this all day, but forehands make for quicker work.
23:39What are these?
23:40Spacers to mark depth and clay in the place of flesh.
23:44What are we sculpting?
23:47Well, I am working on reconstructing the face in efforts to identify our victim.
23:52What's in the box, Miss Hart?
24:00The victim.
24:01Oh.
24:08Sir?
24:09I tracked down the foreman who was working on the renovation in 1887.
24:12He was able to give me the name of the worker who walked off the job.
24:15Very good, Henry.
24:16See what else you can find out.
24:19Are you learning Morse code?
24:21Yes, sir.
24:22Let's talk to machines.
24:26Henry, who is that woman?
24:29I'm not sure, sir.
24:35Excuse me.
24:39Hello, I'm Detective Murdoch.
24:40How can I help you, ma'am?
24:42My son, Jeb, is in custody for theft.
24:44I am sure it is a misunderstanding.
24:47He would never.
24:48You're Jeb Fisher's mother?
24:51I am.
24:57Can you describe your relationship with the Hobbs family for me, Mrs. Fisher?
25:03John Hobbs is my father.
25:07This is your family?
25:08It was.
25:09But father disowned me shortly after we moved to Toronto.
25:14I was too much for him.
25:15He had a new wife and a new life.
25:17When was this?
25:191887.
25:20In the fall.
25:23Do you recall anyone around the family going missing at that time?
25:28A bit aside from yourself.
25:30No, but that was a lifetime ago.
25:32Why are you asking me about this?
25:34Detective?
25:35I have Mr. Fisher.
25:36Yeah.
25:38Thank you, Henry.
25:41Please have a seat, Mr. Fisher.
25:42Your mother was just telling me that you are John Hobbs' grandson.
25:47I didn't want to get you in trouble.
25:49I know.
25:52I got asked to work on Hobbs' home, and I saw this, and I got so mad they covered Ma
25:56up.
25:58I just ripped it off the wall.
26:00It was stupid.
26:01This was nothing but a youthful mistake.
26:04We'll see.
26:04What can you tell me about the body that was found?
26:07All I know is I found him.
26:09What are you talking about?
26:11The remains of an unidentified male were found in the wall of the sitting room.
26:16Oh, my God.
26:18I've determined that this all occurred when you were still a member of the household.
26:23Did you witness anything?
26:26A heated argument or a dispute before you left?
26:29Only between my father and me, I wasn't paying much attention to the rest of the household.
26:34Does the word butterscotch mean anything to you?
26:37That was also found with the remains.
26:40No, I don't have any clue what any of this means.
26:44I'm only here for my son.
26:46You say I was erased from that painting.
26:49I wish it had stayed that way.
26:52From what you describe of her reaction, I can't imagine Mrs. Fisher would have wanted the portrait herself.
26:57I have to agree.
26:58But it is quite a coincidence that she left the house the same year that our victim here was killed.
27:04So, not a suspect for the theft, but perhaps for the murder?
27:08It would help if we knew the identity of the dead man, Ms. Hartz.
27:15Should be finished today.
27:16Very good.
27:17I'll leave you to it.
27:19Sure do hope someone recognizes this mystery victim.
27:23There weren't many photographs from the time, especially if he was a workman or staff.
27:28Well, then, I have a favor to ask of you.
27:31Another one.
27:34Well, I'm all yours.
27:38I don't understand.
27:39This person is my half-sister?
27:41The birth records from St. John confirm Edwina's story.
27:46Well, if it's true, my father must have had good reason to not tell me about her.
27:51And you have no memory of Edwina?
27:53None whatsoever.
27:55I was barely two when she ran off.
27:58What about you, Mr. Donnelly?
27:59Surely you remember her?
28:00I do apologize, Detective, but I was following Mr. Hobbs' wishes to not speak of Edwina again,
28:07and it didn't seem relevant.
28:10What was Edwina like?
28:12I only started with the family that year.
28:15Surely she made an impression.
28:18It was the company she kept that left the impression.
28:21I-I-I spent a lifetime building ships for the Crown for this country.
28:28All those years.
28:30And she brought shame to the family by cavorting with a criminal.
28:36Father, you don't need to get upset.
28:37What gives you the right to nose into my family's business?
28:41Get out of my house!
28:44Father, it's all right.
28:45Calm down.
28:45My-my-my little Butterscotch.
28:49She betrayed her own father.
28:51Of course, Father.
28:54And you didn't know that Butterscotch was Mr. Hobbs' pet name for his daughter?
28:59As I said, I did not know her well.
29:03Right.
29:03He also said that Edwina had been cavorting with a criminal at that time.
29:09Do you know who that was?
29:11I believe his name was, uh, Sebastian.
29:15Mr. Hobbs considered him a dangerous influence.
29:18Do you know what's happened to this Sebastian?
29:21I wouldn't know.
29:23Gone the same time as Edwina.
29:26Right.
29:32Your father's nickname for you was found with the victim's body.
29:37And he was killed the same year that you left home.
29:41How do you explain that?
29:42I can't.
29:43You have been less than truthful with me, Mrs. Fisher.
29:47I didn't want to complicate things for Jeb.
29:50This man, Sebastian, did he have an altercation with someone in your household?
29:56No.
29:57Why would you think that?
29:58He was your criminal lover, was he not?
30:01Ah, always the same accusations.
30:03Untrustworthy, a thief.
30:05Your father characterized him as such, yes?
30:07My father objected to him, not because he was a cheat or whatever lies you've heard.
30:12He would not let us marry because Sebastian is a Jew.
30:15He moved to Montreal.
30:17I followed him.
30:18He's a good, honest man and a good father.
30:22We've attempted to reconstruct the victim's face.
30:25I'll show that to you now.
30:28Tell me if it's anyone you recognize.
30:35It looks just like him, but...
30:37Who?
30:38Mr. Edwards.
30:40Father's manservant.
30:41He took care of father's affairs.
30:43I saw him the night I left.
30:45Tell me about that night.
30:48I wrote a letter before I left to reason with father and I signed it, your butterscotch, perhaps
30:55what you found.
30:56And this Mr. Edwards caught you leaving?
30:59He didn't try and stop me.
31:02He'd seen how controlling father was.
31:04Because he'd seen it my whole life.
31:07He let me go.
31:09And I have been forever grateful to him.
31:12And that's the last I saw him.
31:15Until now.
31:17If Edwina wanted to get out so badly, there's no telling what she might have done.
31:22Her story about the father ring is true.
31:24I'm inclined to believe it.
31:26Do you think Hobbs could have killed Edwards?
31:28Could have blamed him for letting Edwina go?
31:30It would be difficult to get a truth out of him that isn't mixed with delusion.
31:35Should we bring him in?
31:36No.
31:37I believe he would be more lucid if his surroundings were familiar.
31:41I'll go see him at his home.
31:51Serge.
31:52Hi.
31:54Look at this little hat I made out of clay.
31:57How lovely.
31:58Did we have plans?
32:00No.
32:01I honestly didn't think I'd come in to find you, but...
32:04Here I am.
32:06I was embarrassed at my mistake last night.
32:10Such a bad impression.
32:11It was...
32:13Memorable.
32:15Is there anything I can do?
32:18As a matter of fact...
32:24Are you sure this is a good idea?
32:26Yes.
32:27We have it all planned out.
32:29And we're set.
32:31Now just play your part and it will all be over soon.
32:40Hello.
32:40Hello.
32:45You mind if I have one of those?
32:57You come here often?
33:03Stop it.
33:04What's that?
33:05Whoa, look.
33:06That table over there.
33:11I saw a shine of light from this glass.
33:14What's going on, Roy?
33:15Excuse me, detective, but what are you doing?
33:17It's a hidden camera.
33:18You pathetic little man.
33:21You pathetic little man.
33:21If I ever see my face in the table ever again, I will have your license.
33:27Come.
33:28Nice.
33:41Mr. Donnelly.
33:42I'd like to speak with Mr. Hobbs.
33:51Hello, Mr. Hobbs.
33:53Do you remember me?
33:55I'm Detective Murdoch.
33:56I don't wish to upset you again, but I need to ask you about the day your daughter, Edwina, left
34:03home.
34:05Butterscotch.
34:06Butterscotch.
34:07Butterscotch.
34:08She left you a letter.
34:09Did you receive it?
34:11Foolish girl.
34:12I told her you can't trust those people.
34:16The letter.
34:17Did Mr. Edwards give you the letter?
34:20Edwards.
34:24Edwards.
34:25I told you to protect her, man.
34:30Yes, sir.
34:31I'm sorry, sir.
34:32She's gone.
34:34You let her go?
34:35You did it.
34:37You did it.
34:38Yes.
34:39My daughter.
34:40My daughter.
34:41I'm afraid she's gone, sir.
34:43She's gone to marry Mr. Fisher.
34:45Oh.
34:46She will bring shame to the family.
34:51I fired you.
34:53I knocked you down.
34:55And you come back?
34:58You're a fool.
34:59I will beat you to the ground again.
35:02I'll beat you to the ground.
35:04Stop.
35:05Stop.
35:06Mr. Hobbs.
35:07Mr. Hobbs.
35:08Stop.
35:09Please.
35:09Sit down.
35:10It's all right.
35:14I'll fetch someone to help you.
35:19You put the ground down.
35:20Fuck.
35:28안돼.
35:32Ugh.
35:33Och!
35:35Aaaaaah!
35:36No!
35:43No!
35:45No!
35:46No!
35:47No!
36:07Miss Hobbs?
36:08The constable said he was calling on Detective Murdoch.
36:11Hmm.
36:13Something I can help with?
36:17I don't think I can keep it like this.
36:20This person isn't part of my family. She betrayed my father.
36:23Yes, but, Miss Hobbs, do you know the reason Edwina was disowned?
36:26She only desired to be free to live how she wanted.
36:29She is a flawed moral character.
36:32Look, she raised a thief.
36:33Her son did make a mistake, but aren't you curious to know your own flesh and blood?
36:39Then why would she leave our family?
36:45Look, she's out in the bullpen, if you'd like to ask her yourself.
36:49Oh, I don't know.
36:52It was your father who cut all ties because she wanted to marry a Jewish man.
36:56I know a little about facing that kind of prejudice.
37:00Are you Jewish?
37:01My parents were.
37:02I, myself, remain unconvinced as to the existence of any deity.
37:10She's your sister.
37:18Detective Watts.
37:19One moment.
37:23Well, that's a start.
37:27What is it, Constable?
37:28I can't seem to find Detective Murdock.
37:30He hasn't called in either.
37:32Hmm.
37:47Help!
37:49Help me!
37:52Help!
37:54Help me!
37:57Help!
37:58Detective Watts.
37:59Can I help you?
38:01Did Detective Murdock call on Mr. Hobbs last night?
38:04I saw him in.
38:05When I returned from my errands, he had left.
38:09I'd like to speak to Mr. Hobbs.
38:16Would you like to hear the other voice of the walls?
38:31No, no, no, no.
38:31Maybe not, no, no, no.
38:31There's no, no, no, no.
38:31How long is that?
