00:57Now, test your wits.
00:59The scenes that follow may give you an inkling of whom to suspect in.
01:04Sinner, take all.
01:07You fool, why didn't you show me this the moment it came?
01:09I did, sir.
01:10Why didn't you tell me it was a death warning?
01:12I might as well show you this while we're waiting.
01:15That thing?
01:16I got one before I went out.
01:18Is that why you dragged me home?
01:20Well, I got one, too.
01:21This guy's not going to stop now.
01:23There's going to be more killings.
01:25And you lie there and tell me that you're not interested.
01:28Get this straight.
01:29I'm going to stay on this case until I get to the bottom of it.
01:31And if you're mixed up in it in any way, you better polish up on your habeas corpuses and your
01:36noliproses and all the rest.
01:38Supposing you tell us why you killed Stephen Lampier.
01:40I tell you I didn't.
01:41Well, then who did?
01:41I don't know.
01:42You're giving the murderer a chance to carry out his threat?
01:45That's right.
01:47Now, you've got plenty of courage.
01:49What did you go through with it?
01:51You're lying, Himes.
01:52All right, I'm lying.
02:13I'm lying.
