During a date, Alice White (Anny Ondra) has a fight with her boyfriend, Scotland Yard Officer Frank Webber (John Longden), and decides to leave with an artist named Mr. Crewe (Cyril Ritchard). Whey they get to the artist's flat, Mr. Crewe attempts to force himself on Alice, and she kills him to defend herself. Frank investigates the case and, after realizing Alice is the culprit, seeks to help her. However, a thief (Donald Calthrop) with blackmail on his mind complicates matters.

00:11:14The End
00:11:42All right.
00:11:46I will play pretty.
00:11:48I will love it.
00:11:49I will love it.
00:11:50You want to see the shade of her.
00:11:53You want to see the orange of that?
00:12:11Frank, I've lost one of my gloves.
00:12:14I think I left it at the other table.
00:12:29Is this it?
00:12:30Yes, Frank.
00:12:32Thought so.
00:12:33There's a hole in two fingers.
00:12:35You'd like a pair of nail scissors for Christmas.
00:12:39Funny, aren't you?
00:12:40Oh, Miss! Miss!
00:12:42It's no good being impatient.
00:12:45You'll have to wait your turn.
00:12:46What's the matter with you today?
00:12:48Got out of bed the wrong size?
00:12:50I don't like waiting about for you.
00:12:53Oh, don't you?
00:12:54Uh-oh, Miss!
00:12:57Do you expect the entire machinery of Scotland Yard to be held up to please you?
00:13:03You and your Scotland Yard.
00:13:05If it went for Edgar Wallace, nobody had ever heard of it.
00:13:08Funny, aren't you?
00:13:11Anyway, what's the hurry?
00:13:12We're only going to the pictures.
00:13:13We've got all evening.
00:13:17Well, I don't think I want to go for pictures.
00:13:20Oh, and why not?
00:13:22I've seen everything worth seeing.
00:13:24You haven't seen fingerprints.
00:13:25I'd like you to see that.
00:13:27Uh, still, it's about Scotland Yard.
00:13:29It might be amusing.
00:13:30They're bound to get all the details.
00:13:32What?
00:13:34I don't see why.
00:13:35I did hear they'd got a real criminal to direct it.
00:13:38So as to be on the safe side.
00:13:40Oh, oh, Miss!
00:13:41Miss!
00:13:43Oh, lost.
00:14:13Well, I've ordered.
00:14:17I'll go to the pictures with you if you like.
00:14:19Ah, changed your mind.
00:14:26Have you got an ashtray, Miss?
00:14:28I never seem to get an ashtray where I sit.
00:14:44Frank?
00:14:46Frank?
00:14:47I've changed my mind again.
00:14:50What about?
00:14:52About going to the pictures.
00:14:55You mean you don't want to go again?
00:14:58No, not particularly.
00:15:01Why not?
00:15:03I don't know.
00:15:05I just don't want to.
00:15:07Isn't that enough?
00:15:08No, it's not enough.
00:15:10Hi, Miss!
00:15:11What are you going to do?
00:15:12I'm going to get the bill.
00:15:13I'm about fed up with you.
00:15:15You don't want to go, I do.
00:15:17Oh, all right.
00:15:19I'll come too.
00:15:21Hi, Miss!
00:15:24Oh, don't let's have a row.
00:15:26I'm sorry.
00:15:28I know I'd be rather obese this day.
00:15:30Miss!
00:15:31Frank!
00:15:32I've said I'm sorry.
00:15:36Here.
00:15:37That'll cover it...
00:15:39Oh, no, my God.
00:15:40It's all right.
00:15:45That's all right.
00:15:48That'll cover it.
00:15:51Oh, no, no.
00:16:49Hold on.
00:16:50I live here.
00:16:53Do you?
00:16:55Then you needn't come any further.
00:16:58Now, I said I'd see you home, and I will.
00:17:01But I'm only just round the corner.
00:17:04Do you know White's, the newsagent?
00:17:06Yes.
00:17:07In the King's Row?
00:17:08Yes.
00:17:08That's my father.
00:17:10No.
00:17:11Yes.
00:17:12Well, isn't that fine?
00:17:14Then we're neighbors.
00:17:17Have you ever seen an artist's studio?
00:17:20No.
00:17:21I'd love to.
00:17:23Come up and see mine.
00:17:25Oh, I can't now.
00:17:28Another time.
00:17:29Why not now?
00:17:31What?
00:17:32So late.
00:17:34Are you frightened?
00:17:36No.
00:17:38Of course not.
00:17:39Then why not now?
00:17:41No, really.
00:17:43Thanks awfully.
00:17:44I must be getting home.
00:17:45You are frightened.
00:17:48You are frightened.
00:17:48I'm certainly not.
00:17:50Take more than a man to frighten me.
00:17:52Yeah.
00:17:53That's what I thought.
00:17:55At first.
00:17:58What is the time?
00:18:00Not very late.
00:18:01Come on.
00:18:02What's the harm?
00:18:04Oh, there's no harm, really.
00:18:08Besides, I always think a girl knows instinctively when she can trust a man.
00:18:12Yes, of course she does.
00:18:15Do you trust me?
00:18:17Alice?
00:18:18May I call you Alice?
00:18:20If you like.
00:18:22Come on.
00:18:26Oh, Mr. Crewe.
00:18:28Before you go in, could I...
00:18:30Excuse me a minute.
00:18:38Can't speak to you.
00:18:39No.
00:18:45That chap's nothing but a sponge, huh?
00:18:48Always pestering people up and down this street.
00:18:56Well, here we are.
00:19:00I'm right up there.
00:19:01At the top.
00:19:03Excuse me a minute, will you?
00:19:23I say I'm awfully sorry.
00:19:24I won't be a minute.
00:19:25You start walking up.
00:19:27That's all right.
00:19:46Oh, good evening.
00:19:47Sorry to disturb you.
00:19:49About this note, did you leave me a message?
00:19:51No.
00:19:52You wouldn't leave any message.
00:19:54Have you seen him before?
00:19:55Yes.
00:19:56The same gent would call you several times.
00:19:59I see.
00:20:00Thanks very much.
00:20:02Good night.
00:20:02I can't wait.
00:20:03All right.
00:20:39A bit of a time, wasn't it?
00:20:47What a lovely room.
00:20:51Did you do it all yourself?
00:20:53Hardly.
00:20:55I say, do you feel cold?
00:20:57I think I'll light the fire.
00:21:27I think I'll light the fire.
00:21:35I say, that's good, isn't it?
00:21:39Oh, that.
00:21:40Yes, that's a new one, just finished.
00:21:43Oh.
00:21:43Oh.
00:22:23How do you hold it?
00:22:25What?
00:22:27Oh.
00:22:32That's easy.
00:22:34I'll show you.
00:22:37Oh, Lord, not like that.
00:22:40Let me show you.
00:22:42You take this, hold it like that, you see?
00:22:45Then you get the brush and hold it there.
00:22:49Now, you try.
00:22:50Yes.
00:22:54Yes.
00:22:57Like this?
00:22:58Yes.
00:23:00Oh.
00:23:01Look what I've done.
00:23:03Oh.
00:23:04Yes.
00:23:06Draw something, Alice.
00:23:09Shall I?
00:23:11Yes.
00:23:16Oh.
00:23:19Oh.
00:23:43Rotten.
00:23:46Never mind.
00:23:47We'll finish this masterpiece together.
00:23:49That's the idea.
00:23:51Now, you hold the brush.
00:23:52I'll hold your hand.
00:23:54Steady.
00:23:55On the neck.
00:23:56And around here.
00:23:58Not too quick.
00:24:00Down there we are.
00:24:01Down by the leg.
00:24:04Push.
00:24:05Long here.
00:24:08And...
00:24:10Knee.
00:24:11Side.
00:24:15There we are.
00:24:18And again.
00:24:20Back to the ankle.
00:24:22Now.
00:24:24There.
00:24:26There.
00:24:27There.
00:24:29Oh.
00:24:31You are awful.
00:24:33Ha, ha, ha.
00:24:37Wait a minute.
00:24:46There.
00:24:46Hooray.
00:24:48All ready for the academy.
00:24:50I'll go and get those drinks.
00:24:51Right you are.
00:25:08I'll go and get those drinks.
00:25:23I say.
00:25:25How would I do for one of your models?
00:25:30That's an idea.
00:25:34Let's see it on you.
00:25:38Do you mean put it on?
00:25:40Yes.
00:25:41Why not?
00:25:45Oh, it's so strong.
00:25:48Go on.
00:25:53Oh, no.
00:25:53I don't think so.
00:25:56Besides, I have to go home soon.
00:25:59I see it.
00:26:03That's it.
00:26:05I'd like to have sketched you in it.
00:26:11Would you have rarely?
00:26:13Yes.
00:26:15I'd like to have you all right.
00:26:16It wouldn't suit you.
00:26:21I bet it would.
00:26:30Shall I rarely try it on?
00:26:33Yes.
00:26:34Will you?
00:26:37All right.
00:26:38Good.
00:26:46Do you think this will be big enough for me?
00:26:49What?
00:26:50I said, do you think this will be big enough for me?
00:26:54Oh, yes.
00:26:55Thanks, big sir.
00:27:25Go on.
00:27:26Play something.
00:27:27Wait a minute.
00:27:30How's that thing go?
00:27:34I know.
00:27:37We all are often overbearing
00:27:40And spend their latter days comparing
00:27:42Past times with the present with result
00:27:45That prove unpleasant
00:27:46To the latter
00:27:47Just idle chatter
00:27:51They praise the woman of the past age
00:27:54And loathe her daughter of this past age
00:27:57They sing a hymn of hate about me's up to date
00:28:00And spend their spite
00:28:02From morn till night
00:28:09They say you're wild, a naughty child
00:28:13Me's up to date
00:28:15And gloomy few predict
00:28:18For you an awful fate
00:28:23Critics of today won't pardon you
00:28:27It's such a shame the way they're hard on you
00:28:33Although you're too sane
00:28:35Stop a plate, smoke and paint
00:28:36Think a cocktail or two
00:28:38Why this alarm?
00:28:40For there's really no harm
00:28:41In the cute little thing there to do
00:28:46You've a heart of gold
00:28:48So let them nag and scold
00:28:53Your absolutely great
00:28:55Miss of today
00:29:00And that's a song about you, my dear
00:29:04You haven't said how you liked it
00:29:09Marvellous
00:29:13I can't do it up
00:29:15Wait a minute
00:29:16Where is this trouble?
00:29:20I can't do it all up
00:29:22Never mind
00:29:26How do I look?
00:29:27Well
00:29:28Now wait a minute
00:29:29This isn't quite right
00:29:35That's there
00:29:45Put your hands there
00:29:47That's right
00:29:50Yeah
00:30:07I'd better go
00:30:08I say
00:30:10I say
00:30:10I say
00:30:32I say
00:30:38I say
00:30:40I say
00:30:40I say
00:30:48I've got it.
00:30:52Please give it to me.
00:30:54All right, come around.
00:30:55Come on.
00:30:56Please, please.
00:30:58Come on, Alice.
00:31:02There it is.
00:31:17Don't be silly, Alice.
00:31:19Don't be silly.
00:31:22No!
00:31:24Let me go!
00:31:25Let me go!
00:31:27Let me go!
00:31:29Oh, let me go!
00:31:34Let me go!
00:31:36No!
00:31:40No!
00:31:41Oh!
00:31:43Oh!
00:31:47Let me go!
00:31:49Oh!
00:31:51Oh!
00:31:53Oh!
00:31:56Oh!
00:32:14Oh, my God.
00:48:17Good morning.
00:50:31Alice.
00:51:03Why don't you.
00:51:28I'll say.
00:51:36I want the best cigar in the show.
00:52:07Thank you, sir.
00:52:09Any news.
00:56:54One, Miss.
00:56:56Two, two, two, two, two.
00:56:59Oh, my God.
00:57:27By the way, if you're a detective, let me give you a tip.
00:57:33Don't wave important clues in telephone boxes.
00:57:36They've got glass doors.
00:57:39You know, uh...
00:57:42Detectives in glass houses shouldn't wave clues.
00:57:46Look here.
00:57:49A small moonlight, please.
00:58:13Come on, out of it. What do you want?
00:58:18What do I want?
00:58:22Uh... well, uh...
00:58:26Couldn't we discuss that over breakfast?
00:58:41Mother, this is a friend of Frank's.
00:58:46Mr... uh...
00:58:47Uh... Tracy.
00:58:48Pleased to meet you.
00:58:50Mr. Tracy.
00:58:52Would you like something to eat?
00:58:54Uh... thank you.
00:59:07Lovely weather we're having.
00:59:09Yes, splendid.
00:59:10Hmm.
00:59:17Who did you say that man was?
00:59:20He's a very important friend of Frank's.
00:59:22I'll get the breakfast for him.
00:59:26Well, I'm very rude.
00:59:28Won't you take my chair?
00:59:29Yes.
00:59:30Oh, thanks.
00:59:36Uh...
00:59:37Joe.
00:59:56Did you see or hear anything during the night?
00:59:59No, sir.
01:00:01What time did you go to bed?
01:00:02About half past ten, sir.
01:00:06Did you write this?
01:00:28Yes.
01:00:31How old would you say this man was?
01:00:35I'm afraid I couldn't tell you, sir.
01:00:36He had his hat on.
01:00:39Did you notice anything particular about his clothes?
01:00:44Well, uh...
01:00:45He had a black hat.
01:00:47Uh-huh.
01:00:47And a loose kind of collar.
01:00:50Uh-huh.
01:00:51And a tie.
01:00:53Uh-huh.
01:00:53And that's about all, I think.
01:00:56Was he dark or fair?
01:00:59Well, you couldn't say he was a blonde.
01:01:02And you couldn't say he was a brunette.
01:01:04He was a bit of both.
01:01:05You know, kind of mousy.
01:01:09Anything else?
01:01:11No.
01:01:12Except when he spoke to you, he went like this.
01:01:17All right.
01:01:20Give me records.
01:01:46Well, bring him along.
01:01:48Let's hear what he's got to say.
01:01:50Understood?
01:01:51Yes, sir.
01:01:52Right.
01:01:52Get along with it.
01:01:59Good.
01:02:00So let's go.
01:02:06Okay.
01:02:09I'm still waiting for you.
01:02:13All right.
01:02:17We'll go.
01:02:18Please.
01:02:19Please.
01:02:20Please.
01:02:21Please.
01:02:43That'll do to go on with.
01:03:09How much longer is that man going to stay?
01:03:11Don't tell me he'll be here to dinner.
01:03:14Don't make things awkward, Mother.
01:03:17It means a lot to me, in fact.
01:03:19Well, I don't see why they should carry on their business in my parlour.
01:03:23I'll take it.
01:03:24Very well.
01:03:25But I don't like that man.
01:03:27And the sooner he goes, the better.
01:03:28Shhh!
01:03:31Liddley, you are very clever.
01:03:33I can see that, all right.
01:03:38Frank!
01:03:40Just a minute, will ya?
01:03:59A fan of yours at the yard said he thought you might be here.
01:04:03Oh, all right.
01:04:10Hello?
01:04:13Yeah?
01:04:15Yes?
01:04:17Well, I thought you wouldn't mind if...
01:04:21What?
01:04:26Who?
01:04:37I don't think it was one.
01:04:40All right.
01:04:42All right.
01:04:50Any news, Frank?
01:04:52I don't think it is.
01:04:54No, Frank.
01:04:56I don't think.
01:04:59Go, Frank.
01:04:59I don't think...
01:05:00I don't think it is.
01:05:19Alice, lock that door.
01:05:23Alice, lock that door.
01:05:48Alice, lock that door.
01:05:49As you were saying, rather unfortunate the way that poor man round the corner, er, died
01:05:56last night.
01:05:58On the other hand, perhaps it's fortunate, for us that is, that a suspicious looking
01:06:05man with a criminal record was seen hanging around the place.
01:06:11Shoot.
01:06:13Look here, don't you try and swing this thing on me, that won't get you anywhere.
01:06:25Also rather unfortunate that Scotland Yard are at present looking for that man.
01:06:34I say, Frank.
01:06:35Just a minute, Alice.
01:06:49But there's one thing you seem to have forgotten.
01:06:52Oh?
01:06:55And what's that?
01:06:57Before we get to any hanging, I shall have quite a lot to say.
01:07:01And the first thing I shall say is that she was there too.
01:07:05Oh, you will, will you?
01:07:06Well, isn't there one thing you seem to have forgotten that our word's as good as, or perhaps
01:07:12a bit better than that of a jailbird?
01:07:17So we'll face that when the time comes.
01:07:19Meanwhile, we'll just sit quietly here until the squad van arrives.
01:07:27That surprises you, doesn't it?
01:07:30No.
01:07:31It doesn't surprise me in the least.
01:07:33When it comes, the surprise won't be for me.
01:07:38Very well, then.
01:07:39We're both satisfied.
01:07:41Yes.
01:07:42We're both satisfied.
01:07:44It's my word against hers.
01:07:46Yes.
01:07:55Frank, you, you can't do this.
01:07:59Why not?
01:08:03Well, because...
01:08:05Now, now, don't interfere, Alice.
01:08:07I know what I'm doing.
01:08:10You don't.
01:08:11You don't.
01:08:15Please, Frank.
01:08:16Oh, for God's sake, be quiet, Alice.
01:08:22Why can't you let her speak?
01:08:24You'll mind your own business.
01:08:26In any case, she'll speak at the right moment.
01:08:32Look here, Frank.
01:08:34Why can't we both of us chuck the whole thing now?
01:08:37I've got nothing against you.
01:08:39You've got nothing against me.
01:08:42Except, of course, I...
01:08:43I had some cash from you, but...
01:08:45Well, I...
01:08:46I wasn't serious.
01:08:48Well, look here.
01:08:49Have it back now.
01:09:03Well, can't you see that she wants to chuck it up, too?
01:09:06And so do I, now.
01:09:09Look here, miss.
01:09:11You tell him.
01:09:13Tell him that he's playing with fire.
01:09:16And...
01:09:16And...
01:09:18And we shall all of us burn our fingers.
01:09:21Oh, I...
01:09:22I'm not bad, really.
01:09:24I...
01:09:26Only...
01:09:26Things have gone wrong lately, and...
01:09:30One's got to live, you know.
01:09:44All right, then.
01:09:46It's still my word against hers.
01:09:53That's it.
01:10:03You got a good picture?
01:10:09Okay.
01:10:17Thanks, William.
01:10:18Thank you, William.
01:10:18It's all right.
01:10:21All right.
01:10:23Too many people.
01:10:24They're behind the back.
01:10:24Frank, follow me.
01:10:28Now, let's go.
01:10:29Let's go!
01:10:30Biodies!
01:10:31Biodies!
01:11:00I'll put her down this way.

01:15:55Well, very often I see you so early in the day as this.
01:16:00Call to see Frank?
01:16:03No.
01:16:05I want to see Inspector Wars, please.
01:16:09Oh.
01:16:12You'll have to fill up one of these forms, you know.
01:16:14All right.
01:16:38Do you know something about this?
01:16:40Yes.
01:16:45George, just a minute.
01:16:51Take this along to Inspector Wars.
01:16:53Right, sir.
01:17:14Well, I suppose you're going to tell them who did it, miss.
01:17:19Yes.
01:17:25You can come along now.
01:17:28Here you are, miss.
01:18:06Come in, please.
01:18:22Won't you sit down?
01:18:26You have something to tell us about this case?
01:18:29Yes.
01:18:32Well, what is it?
01:18:35Ah, you see, I know who did it.
01:18:40Is this worthwhile, sir, now that everything's been cleared up?
01:18:42Yes, let's hear what she's got to say.
01:18:46What I was going to say is this.
01:18:49I'd better say what I have to say now.
01:18:53I'd rather not wait.
01:18:55What I wanted to say is that I was the one...
01:18:59One moment, please.
01:19:01Hello?
01:19:03Yes?
01:19:05Yes?
01:19:07Yes, hold on.
01:19:08You deal with this young lady.
01:19:09I shall be busy for a minute.
01:19:12Yes, sir.
01:19:16This way, miss, please.
01:19:17Is he there now?
01:19:19Send him in at work.
01:19:44Alice, whatever made you come here?
01:19:49I did it.
01:20:06I know.
01:20:07You don't know.
01:20:10He tried.
01:20:13Oh, I can't tell you.
01:20:14It's too terrible.
01:20:17I was defending myself.
01:20:19I didn't know what I was doing.
01:20:21And then...
01:20:30Night, dear.
01:20:32Night, dear.
01:20:41Night, dear.
01:20:55So you found him, miss?
01:20:57Did she tell you who did it?
01:21:00Yes.
01:21:02You want to look out?
01:21:03She'll be losing your job, my boy.
01:21:13I say, I suppose we should soon have lady detectives up in the yard, eh?
01:21:18But I shall be all right on the door, won't I?
01:21:21Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha,
