00:37The End
01:06I don't see it.
01:07I do, sir.
01:08Where?
01:08On that ledge, sir, resting on a bit of the tribune.
01:11Our most practical paper, Tenny.
01:13I'd rather like it, sir.
01:14Remind me to renew my subscription.
01:15That won't be necessary, sir.
01:17And why not?
01:18Because a chick for your subscription is already in the post, sir.
01:22Ah, Tenny, you think of everything, don't you?
01:23I, uh, try to, sir.
01:26Then think of some way to rescue my package.
01:29There, sir, as they say in the books, you have me, sir.
01:34Is one of my American cousins in the crowd?
01:36What's your name?
01:37Drummond.
01:38Captain Hugh C. Drummond.
01:39I ain't got no cousins by that name, but I'm an American, all right?
01:41Ah, fine.
01:42Then may I borrow a piece of your chewing gum?
01:44Sure.
01:46Don't mention it.
01:51Are you all right, sir?
01:52Quite all right, Tenny.
01:54Now, sir, may I borrow your stick?
01:58Don't...
01:59Oh, man.
02:04An excellent idea, sir.
02:06Colossal, Tenny.
02:07One might almost say stupendous, sir.
02:19Carefully, sir.
02:19I've got it, sir.
02:22Now, thank you, sir.
02:23Sir, what idea?
02:24Here, my friend, I'm going to become a chewing gum fiend.
02:27Keeps the teeth nice and white.
02:29See?
02:29How interesting.
02:30Here.
02:31The old merchant.
02:34Do you know what, Tenny?
02:35Thank you, sir.
02:38Not bad, eh?
02:39I rather like it so.
02:41Say, mister, what's in that package?
02:45Wedding rings.
02:50Now, now that we have them, Tenny, suppose we make a final check.
02:52Very well, sir.
02:53To begin with, I have the rings.
02:54No, sir, I have the rings, sir.
02:56Ah, you have the rings.
02:57In my pocket, sir.
02:58Marriage papers?
02:58In your pocket, sir.
03:00Authorization for your wedding in Switzerland.
03:02Railway tickets?
03:03Cars 7, London to Paris Express, leaving Victoria Station tonight.
03:08Flowers?
03:09Four kids, sir, to be placed in Miss Philly's compartment at 9.50 p.m.
03:14Hotel accommodations.
03:15Paris tomorrow morning at 9.50, sir.
03:18Two suites.
03:20The following day in Geneva, one suite.
03:25Ah, Tenny, getting married is great fun, isn't it?
03:27In Switzerland, sir?
03:28Anywhere, Tenny, anywhere.
03:29It's a popular belief, sir.
03:32Tenny, you're a pessimist.
03:33I've been very happy, sir.
03:40Captain Drummond.
03:41Yes, Tenny.
03:42When one is through with it, what does one do with it?
03:46I see.
03:47When one is done with it, what does one do with it?
03:49It was not a riddle.
03:50No, then what is it?
03:51It's an academic inquiry, sir, as to how one disposes of one's chewing gum.
03:55Ah, I see.
03:56Yeah, that does require thought.
03:58Yes.
04:02Don't trouble, sir.
04:04And why not?
04:04I've swallowed it, sir.
04:09Well, Tenny, that's one way.
04:11Well, hardly the right way, do you think, sir?
04:12Time will tell.
04:13Well, speaking of time, sir.
04:15At 4.30, I'm to call for Colonel Nielsen at Scotland Yard.
04:27Good afternoon, Captain Drummond.
04:28On time to the dock.
04:29Colonel Nielsen will be delayed a few moments.
04:31Well, I'll wait.
04:32And there's clamoring telephone from Rockingham Lodge.
04:33Shall I get her for you?
04:34Yes, will you please?
04:35You may use the phone in there.
04:39Rockingham Lodge, please.
04:42Hello?
04:44Oh, hello, dear.
04:45I've got the rings.
04:46Don't lose them.
04:47Now, in the first place, you called me.
04:49To tell you that Gwen.
04:51Asked you to tell me.
04:52That Algie would meet you at Colonel Nielsen's office and you could all come out.
04:55Together.
04:56All right, darling.
04:57See you soon.
05:02Colonel Nielsen will see you in just a moment.
05:07Sumi Okanda.
05:08Hugh Drummond.
05:09Well, seven years haven't changed you.
05:11No, you, my dear friend.
05:12And the English is more perfect than ever.
05:15Due largely to our most present scholastic association.
05:19Ah, that's the talk of a diplomat.
05:20That is kind.
05:21Are you?
05:22Am I?
05:23A diplomat.
05:25I see you have not forgotten.
05:26What?
05:28To ask questions.
05:30Goodbye, Colonel.
05:31Goodbye, sir.
05:31Not at all, sir.
05:32I got hold of the foreign office immediately.
05:33Very good, sir.
05:34Mr. Kahn, is that Colonel Nielsen?
05:35How do you do, sir?
05:37Just a few minutes.
05:38Do you step in, Mr. Kahn?
05:39Do you forgive me?
05:40Of course.
05:41Go ahead.
05:49I trust my beat will not upset your plans.
05:51Well, plans of me to be upset, aren't they?
05:53That is so.
05:53That is why I am here.
05:55To try and upset some friends.
05:57Sit down.
06:01Do you know who and what I am?
06:04Of course.
06:05We understand each other then.
06:07Between us, representing in a separate way the interest of two friendly nations.
06:13There need to be no evasion.
06:15That is so?
06:16Quite.
06:17Then I will tell you something of great importance.
06:20Concerning?
06:21Sir John Huckston.
06:23How do you know?
06:24How I know it is not of importance.
06:26Sir John Huckston has invented a super explosive.
06:31An ultra powerful combination of destructive elements for use in airplane bombs.
06:38He is leaving today for France to confer with munition chemist of your great honor.
06:44That is so?
06:45Go on.
06:46An attempt will be made to steal the portion of experimental supply he is taking with him.
06:51How do you know this?
06:52Please.
06:53A single airplane carrying a hundred small bombs loaded with this devastating force could destroy
07:02any capital in the world.
07:03Has it ever occurred to you, my dear Mr. Kanda, that espionage might be a rather dangerous pastime?
07:09Now is not time for accusation or recriminations.
07:13My country and your country too are in great danger if Sir John's discovery falls into unfriendly
07:21hunt.
07:21Suppose I were to tell you there is no such thing as this explosive.
07:24We agreed not to wait.
07:26Please, I am a friend.
07:28I wish to cooperate.
07:29You told me everything?
07:30All that I know.
07:32I will see Sir John at once.
07:33Yes, of course.
07:34That will be proper.
07:35Goodbye.
07:39Yes, Colonel?
07:40Get Sir John Huckston on the wire at once.
07:42Very well, sir.
07:43And Captain Drummond is waiting.
07:45Oh, send him in.
07:49Ready, Colonel?
07:50I'm sorry, Hugh.
07:51I'm afraid you'll have to run along without me.
07:53You mean you're not coming to the station with us?
07:54I didn't say that.
07:55I said you'll have to run along without me.
07:57Then you will be there.
07:58Later, yes.
07:58Later.
08:01What's happened?
08:02Happened?
08:03Before Sumi Okanda came in here, you looked quite human.
08:06Implying that now I don't?
08:07Definitely.
08:08My dear Hugh, this is Scottson Yard.
08:10Things do happen here.
08:12Things that also happen to be none of your business.
08:14Now, then Sumi Okanda's visit was important.
08:17Yes, his visit was important.
08:18Just like 50 others today were important.
08:22Now, will you please run along and quit prying into things that don't concern you?
08:28Yes?
08:29I have Sir John Huckston's home for you, sir.
08:30Thanks.
08:33Hey.
08:35Hello?
08:36One moment, please, Colonel Nielsen.
08:37Sir John is in his laboratory.
08:38I'll connect you.
09:05What is it?
09:07Of course, put him on.
09:09Oh, hello, Colonel.
09:12Well, I'm due at the airport in half an hour.
09:14I'm afraid you'll have to delay it, sir.
09:17I'll explain when I get there.
09:18Yeah, but it is important.
09:21Yes, yes, just as quickly as I can make it.
09:23About 20 minutes.
09:24Goodbye.
09:25Goodbye, sir.
09:26Colonel.
09:27It's none of your business.
09:28Trevor speaking.
09:30Have Smith and Jennings meet me at Sir John Huckston's right away, please.
09:34Right, sir.
09:36Colonel, why don't you think about getting married?
09:38Instead of tormenting me with your infernal questions.
09:41I only wanted to tell you that I'd be glad to drop you off at Sir John's.
09:44All right.
09:45But I warn you not to ask questions.
09:48I mean it.
09:48Of course you mean it.
09:51Righto, I'll wait here.
09:54Right, sir.
09:55Oh, I'm sorry, Colonel.
09:57Oh, I'm terribly sorry.
10:01Oh, Colonel, I'm...
10:03I know!
10:04You're horribly sorry.
10:06Yes.
10:07Allow me.
10:10Thanks.
10:11I've told Winnie to tell her, to tell her, to tell her that I'm...
10:20Oh, come in, Colonel.
10:22Shall I put the bags in the car, sir?
10:23You may as well.
10:24Oh, no, we'll take a special car from the yard.
10:26You heard?
10:27Yes, sir, Colonel.
10:31What's up?
10:32There's been a leak somewhere.
10:33Your plans are known.
10:35How could they be?
10:36How about your secretary?
10:38Noguay's?
10:38He's been with me for years.
10:39Does he know what you're doing?
10:41Yes and no.
10:42To keep you happy, I destroyed all my notes.
10:45Remember?
10:46Is Noguay's traveling with you?
10:47He's my navigator.
10:48We're flying in my ship.
10:49In an army plane, you mean.
10:50You'll be traveling under escort from the moment you leave the house.
10:53We can't do that.
10:54Why not?
10:55I can't risk those army chaps' lives.
10:57You're risking your own, aren't you?
10:58It's my show.
11:00And this stuff's full of jokes.
11:02There's enough hexanide in this suitcase to blow Westminster Abbey into the North Sea.
11:09And one of these?
11:10Loaded with this stuff and dropped from a plane, a hundred of those would wipe London off the map.
11:14Here, let me show you something.
11:28That's a single crystal of hexanide.
11:30That little speck.
11:32Hold it a second, will you?
11:34All right.
11:41All right, I'll take it now.
11:43Come over here.
11:51Exhibit A.
11:52And in case you don't know it, this is a hammer.
11:55Exhibit B.
11:56Be serious, will you?
11:57I am quite serious.
11:58Now watch.
12:01You see?
12:02It didn't go off.
12:03That's the trouble with the stuff.
12:05It's treacherous.
12:06Sometimes it behaves itself.
12:07On the other hand, it's liable to go off for no reason at all.
12:10Lift a fellow into kingdom come.
12:16There you are.
12:18Suppose the explosive in that suitcase has decided to let go.
12:21More important still, suppose that suitcase fell into unfriendly hands.
12:25That's why you're traveling under escort.
12:28Excuse me a moment.
12:33Yes?
12:35Well, have them wait.
12:37Two of your men are here.
12:38We'll go with you to the airport.
12:40I'm flying my ship.
12:42That's the way you want it.
12:43I'd rather.
13:00I'll take that one.
13:01All right, sir.
13:02That's nice weather for flying.
13:08We'll be an escort waiting for the bullshit, if you insist.
13:11But I still think you're making much ado about nothing.
13:13We're taking no chances.
13:14Well, goodbye, Colonel.
13:15About a while.
13:16About a while.
13:16About a while.
14:00Wire this immediately to the authorities at Le Bourget, Paris.
14:05I do, Colonel.
14:07If you want to reach me, I'll be at Captain Drummond's in about an hour.
14:10Right, Colonel.
14:12Blocking lodge.
14:24Hugh.
14:25What up?
14:26Isn't this the wrong road?
14:28Shortcut.
14:31Hugh.
14:32Yes, Algie.
14:34Aren't we going a little fast?
14:36I want to get there.
14:37So do I.
14:38I want to get there.
15:22I want to get there.
15:24I want to get there.
15:24I want to get there.
15:26I want to get there.
15:27I want to get there.
15:28I want to get there.
15:28I want to get there.
15:30I want to get there.
16:10That must be Axon's plate.
16:11We'll know in just a minute.
16:28No gauge is working fast, all right.
16:31He said he'd get that suitcase out of the parachute and there it comes.
16:34I'd rather not be around it.
16:35That X-night goes off when it lands.
16:37No gauge will be bailing out next.
16:39Get to a phone.
16:39Tell the boss everything's going okay.
16:41Right.
16:51What's that?
17:05I say, mystery out here.
17:39That fellow was in a hurry.
17:41He put on all speed when he saw us.
18:00You got it?
18:01Come on, get that thing in here quick.
18:07J.H.
18:10Haxton. Sir John Haxton, I'll bet.
18:12Huh?
18:12This afternoon in Colonel Nielsen's office.
18:14Listen.
18:15Captain Drummond.
18:16Captain Drummond!
18:46There's the car I saw.
18:55Get out of sight.
19:03It's huge.
19:05Do you see what I see in there?
19:07There's nothing we can do now, Algie.
19:10Captain.
19:11Captain Drummond.
19:22Ah.
19:23The ring on the finger.
19:25The end.
19:26Sir John's pilot, I suppose.
19:28I know there's something queer about this.
19:29Why, Hugh?
19:30Hands cold.
19:31Well, that's to be expected, isn't it?
19:33Rigor mortis doesn't set in so soon.
19:35This is the hand of a man who's been dead at least four hours.
19:46Your hands are...
19:51I think it's gone.
19:59Phyllis, we're here!
20:00Tammy.
20:00Yes, sir.
20:01Get me a...
20:02Yes, sir.
20:02A spot of tea.
20:03Tea, sir?
20:04Yes.
20:05Captain Drummond.
20:06No, but you'd better have some.
20:07Yes, thank you, sir.
20:10Algie, this is a clue to something big.
20:11I wish we were in on it.
20:13Well, I thought we were.
20:16Now, what's the matter with you?
20:17That thing gives me the creeps.
20:19Algie, brace up.
20:20I don't want Phyllis upset.
20:21You!
20:23Algie, Algie!
20:25What shall I tell Gwen?
20:26If you mention a word of what's happened, I'll wring your neck.
20:30Oh!
20:32Algie, Algie!
20:34Oh!
20:35So excited I could dance.
20:37Oh, I want to tell you before Phyllis does.
20:39Phyllis talked long distance to her Aunt Blanche at Geneva,
20:42and she's giving Phyllis her Swiss chateau for a wedding present.
20:45That's very interesting.
20:46Oh, you can't go upstairs.
20:47And you and Phyllis can't marry until a week after you get to Geneva
20:50because Aunt Blanche slipped on a ski and broke her ankle.
20:54But that makes it just ducky for us to leave for Geneva on Monday instead of Friday,
20:59and then I can have my dress fitted on Saturday.
21:01Isn't that perfectly rare?
21:02What?
21:03What's the matter with you, Algie?
21:05Oh, nothing, nothing.
21:07Just a little chill.
21:08Oh!
21:09You ought to be ashamed of yourself, you drummin' dragging Algie, Algie,
21:13around in that horrid old car of yours.
21:15You come right over here and let me make you all nice and coffee, won't you?
21:21John!
21:22I'm so sorry.
21:24Why don't you knock a lady down?
21:25That will come after we're married.
21:28Just a minute, young man.
21:29Where on earth have you been?
21:32Well, you see, the fog was pretty thick, darling.
21:35I thought you were bringing Colonel Nelson.
21:37Well, something came up the yard.
21:38He'll be right along.
21:39Well, let me see them.
21:41Them?
21:42The rings.
21:43Oh, yes, the rings, of course.
21:47Well, you haven't lost them.
21:48No, darling, no.
21:49Well, men always do.
21:50No, I haven't lost them because I remember perfectly well that I put them in my pocket, so.
21:54Ah, good work, Tenny.
21:55I rather like it so.
21:59And there you are, darling.
22:02You, it's beautiful.
22:04For what of my inexperience, I did all right, huh?
22:07You, uh, still have time to back out, you know.
22:10What do you mean, back out?
22:11When we put these on and say, I do, it's the end of your adventuring.
22:15No more mysteries.
22:16No more dangers.
22:17Just home and fireside.
22:20Yes, but darling.
22:20You promised.
22:22Oh, yes, I did, didn't I?
22:23But, well.
22:25Well, all right, darling.
22:26You have my word.
22:27The old life is over.
22:29Done with forever.
22:32There.
22:32Isn't that perfect?
22:33Oh, it's lovely.
22:39There, there's a hand.
22:41A hand?
22:48It's all right, dear.
22:49Get him.
22:50Get him.
22:51Get him.
22:56Get him.
22:57Get him.
22:58Get him.
22:58Get him.
22:59Get him.
22:59I got him.
23:01I got him.
23:02I got him.
23:06You.
23:08I'm sorry, old boy.
23:10Ow, dear.
23:12Darling, did I hurt you?
23:14No, sweetheart, it was nothing.
23:18Did he get away?
23:19Who?
23:20I don't know.
23:23The...
23:24Luke!
23:27Who?
23:28You!
23:29It's gone.
23:30What's gone?
23:31The suitcase.
23:32What suitcase?
23:32A tennis suitcase.
23:34Tennis suitcase?
23:35Yes, miss, my suitcase.
23:37But why should anyone steal a tennis suitcase?
23:39In the name of my sainted aunt, what's been going on here?
23:41I don't know.
23:41Something's happened.
23:43No.
23:44Hugh!
23:44What'll I do?
23:46Well...
23:46Take upstairs out here.
23:47Righto.
23:48Hang on, my pet.
23:49Now, you'd better go, too, dear.
23:51Just a moment, Hugh Drummond.
23:52Are you mixed up in something again?
23:54Oh, Phyllis, if you'll just give me...
23:55Is this a sample of what our married life's going to be?
23:57No, darling, it isn't.
23:58I've made a promise and I'm going to keep it.
23:59I can, but I've simply got to talk to Colonel Neusson alone.
24:03Please.
24:05I give up.
24:07Hmm.
24:07Smart gal.
24:08I did that a long time ago.
24:10Colonel.
24:11But what is it this time?
24:13Murder.
24:14But...
24:14There's a body, of course.
24:15About ten miles from here.
24:17In what remains of an aeroplane.
24:18Hugh!
24:19Tennis told me to tell you.
24:21Later, Elsie.
24:21Later.
24:22In an aeroplane, you say?
24:23Sir John Haxton's.
24:24It crashed?
24:25It not only crashed, Colonel, it exploded.
24:28It, uh, was an accident, Hugh.
24:30Yes, but Colonel...
24:31Sir John had a suitcase containing haxanite.
24:33A powerful explosive.
24:39Treacherous stuff.
24:40So much so, in fact, that the slightest jaw.
24:42At times, it set it off.
24:44That's what exploded.
24:47It, it was, was in a suitcase?
24:49Hmm.
24:52What's the matter with you idiots?
24:53We, we, we had that suitcase here.
24:56Here?
24:56We were tossing it around like a football.
24:59Where is it now, man?
25:00Where is it now?
25:00It was stolen about a minute before you arrived.
25:03Mm-hmm.
25:04Mm-hmm.
25:09Hello?
25:10Hello?
25:10From the Scotland Yard, please.
25:13Clear the wire and get them.
25:15This is Colonel Nielsen speaking.
25:17That was rocking of large.
25:19Colonel.
25:20Huh?
25:20Whose initials are D-N?
25:22D...
25:23Robendo Gaye, Saxton's secretary.
25:24Was he with Sir John?
25:25Yes.
25:26Well, then he did it.
25:27Here, look at this.
25:35Take it easy.
25:36You want this stuff to blow up?
25:37What time is it?
25:40Seven o'clock.
25:43I owe Drummond something for this.
25:46So, to make it appear that he had been killed, too, Nogayes put his ring on this, wherever
25:49he got it, and then bailed out in a chute after he had dumped the Hexonite overboard.
25:53For once, I think you're right.
25:54Colonel.
25:55Huh?
25:56Nogayes has some on his cheek, which I gave him during our fight.
26:00Hello?
26:01Hello.
26:02Nielsen speaking.
26:04Put you through to Jennings.
26:05Right away, please.
26:06Elsie, where Elsie?
26:07Is that a word, Elsie?
26:08Do you hear me?
26:08Hello.
26:09I'll put this in your local pocket.
26:11Hello.
26:11Hello, Jennings.
26:13Got out an order for the arrest of Robendo Gayes.
26:15Right away, please.
26:16Did you tell him?
26:17I forgot.
26:18Forgot what, Elsie?
26:20You, old boy.
26:21Well, Elsie, out with it.
26:23She just told me to tell you, but...
26:25Well, there you are, darling.
26:27Well, what's the matter?
26:29I...
26:30I've changed my mind.
26:31You've what?
26:32I've thrown it over and I...
26:35She's not going to marry you.
26:37That's what she told me to tell you.
26:39Now we can't go to Geneva.
26:44Darling, you're joking.
26:45I'm not.
26:46But why, Phyllis?
26:47Why?
26:48It's been just one thing after another since the day we met.
26:51Oh, darling, that's all over.
26:52Oh, no, it isn't.
26:53Well, on the very night we leave to get married, the lights go out and there's a fight and suitcases
26:59disappear.
26:59Well, now, Phyllis, please.
27:01I want a home and...
27:02And not so much excitement.
27:04Now, sweetheart, if you...
27:05There's something about Phyllis and I've got to go.
27:06See you in Geneva next week.
27:07That's fine.
27:08What are you crying about?
27:10Her heart's broken, that's what.
27:12Oh!
27:17You!
27:18You!
27:18What'll I do?
27:21What?
27:22Penny!
27:24Coming up!
27:31Gwen.
27:32Gwen, my pet.
27:33Here, dear.
27:33Drink this.
27:36There you are.
27:38That's fine.
27:38Thank you, Tony.
27:39Phyllis, you didn't mean it, did you?
27:41Oh, I suppose not.
27:43But I warn you.
27:44If anything happens...
27:46Nothing will happen, dear.
27:47How could it?
27:48Oh, darling.
27:49You!
27:50No!
27:50Oh, later, Elsie.
27:51I'm busy.
27:52Jenny!
27:53Coming, sir.
27:55Well, hurry!
27:56Hurry!
28:22And I think it's just you perfectly willing to be traveling on the train ferry all the
28:26way to Paris without getting off the train, don't you?
28:28When Elsie and I went to Paris, they didn't have a train ferry.
28:30It's busy, Elsie, Elsie.
28:31And you know, we forgot all about having to get off the train at Dover to get on the boat
28:35and we went wild to sleep.
28:37Well, we simply had to tear into our clothes and you know what?
28:40What?
28:40Oh, silly.
28:42Elsie's feet started hurting him and it wasn't until the boat got to Calais that he found
28:45he had his right foot in his left shoe.
28:47What?
28:48How the funniest thing I ever thought!
28:54Porter.
28:55Yes, sir?
28:56These orchids and this luggage were to go to Miss Clevering's compartment.
29:00Number one, forward.
29:01I'm sorry, sir.
29:02Please get it right this time.
29:03Right you are, sir.
29:05I'll tip you with Dover.
29:06Thank you, sir.
29:09I beg your pardon.
29:15Teddy.
29:16Yes, Mr. Longworth.
29:18Look.
29:19An alarm clock.
29:21Set for two o'clock in the morning.
29:23But why, sir?
29:23To wake him up.
29:25To wake Captain Drummond up, sir.
29:28When they did it to me, I almost jumped out of my pyjamas.
29:33Well, it's a joke, don't you see?
29:35Not very clearly, sir.
29:36It's supposed to be funny.
29:38If you insist so.
29:40Ha ha!
29:41Excuse me, sir.
30:01Why, I beg your...
30:04I beg your pardon.
30:06May I pass, please?
30:08Yes, of course.
30:17I beg your pardon.
30:19I beg your pardon.
30:44Oh, and don't forget that little gown shop I told you about in Geneva.
30:47Oh, no.
30:48It isn't Geneva.
30:48It's apparent.
30:49Uh, six?
30:50Oh, well, I don't remember exactly, but it's either one or the other.
30:52I know because I've been there.
30:55The train's ready to start.
30:57Oh, oh, is it?
30:58Oh, well, goodbye, dear.
30:59And, uh, and I know you're going to have a thrilling time.
31:02Goodbye, Gwen.
31:03Goodbye.
31:04Goodbye, Hugh.
31:05Goodbye, Gwen.
31:06Goodbye.
31:06Goodbye.
31:08Algy!
31:11Algy!
31:12Algy!
31:13Oh!
31:15Oh!
31:15Algy!
31:16Number seven, sir.
31:17Your apartment's being arranged.
31:31Why, I beg your pardon.
31:33Good evening.
31:35Oh.
31:35I'm an inspector.
31:37And I came in here to, uh, to inspect.
31:40Good night.
31:52It started, hasn't it?
31:54Right, sir.
31:54Oh.
31:55Ticket, please.
31:56Yes.
31:56Ticket.
31:57If you please, sir.
31:58Oh, yes, yes.
31:59Oh, I haven't any.
32:00Then I'll have to sell you one, I'm afraid.
32:02Uh, space?
32:04Compartment 11, Miss Carl.
32:05Straight through, sir?
32:06Or to Dover only?
32:07Do-
32:08I can phone Grenade Dover, can't I?
32:09Oh, yes.
32:10I should think so.
32:11Oh, all right.
32:15That horse-faced friend of Drummond's is on the train.
32:19Drummond is too.
32:20In the compartment next to mine.
32:22Do you think they're onto us?
32:23Horse faces, you call them, is onto you.
32:25I call them snooping.
32:30Algie!
32:30Algie!
32:31You?
32:31It's on the train.
32:32It's on the train?
32:33Yes, what are we going to do?
32:34Well, what are you talking about, Algie?
32:36What's on the train?
32:36The suitcase.
32:37So, the suitcase is on the train.
32:40Well, how do you know?
32:40I saw him.
32:41Saw whom?
32:42The man with the scratches.
32:43I might have known it.
32:44Wait a moment, darling.
32:45If what Algie says is the truth, we're in danger.
32:47The whole train's in danger.
32:48Well, Ken Nielsen warned me.
32:49It's my own fault.
32:50Proceed once.
32:51Well, I got on the train.
32:52But I didn't want to get on the train when the train was going.
32:53Because no one tells you to stick to the man with the scratches.
32:55It's all right for you not to worry.
32:57They don't know you.
32:58You're safe.
32:59Especially in that getup you're wearing.
33:01But what about me?
33:02These scratches have got me pegged.
33:05Why, if they find out you weren't killed in Axton's plane,
33:08Drummond will probably think I'm you.
33:10That is possible, isn't it?
33:13Sure puts me in a spot.
33:16Half a million almost in our hands and this had to happen.
33:20You know, my friend, you have given me an idea.
33:25What?
33:27Did you hear something?
33:32I don't hear it.
33:38Hugh, this isn't your affair.
33:39Darling, it is my affair.
33:40I told you what Colonel Nielsen said.
33:42There's more at stake than just our lives.
33:43Our lives aren't important.
33:45Naturally, they are.
33:45But don't you understand?
33:47Somebody's got to see it through.
33:47Your mind's made up?
33:49Of course.
33:50All right then.
33:51I'm in on it too.
33:52I'll go to my compartment.
33:53You stay right here until we get to Dover.
33:54I'll do nothing.
33:55Right in this room.
33:56Go to to heaven.
34:05Go, P rain tip.
34:13You're in on it too.
34:24You're in, on to that direction.
34:24It's all right.
34:26When I room, we.
34:54Your gun, sir.
34:55Well, you brought them along.
34:56Just in case, sir.
34:57An excellent idea, Tinney.
34:59I thought you might like it, sir.
35:00One for you, sir.
35:02But what about yourself?
35:03It's all there are, sir.
35:04There ought to be more.
35:05Then you'd better stay here.
35:07Very good, sir.
35:07Well, if I don't see you again, goodbye.
35:10It's been so nice knowing you.
35:11Relax, darling, relax.
35:13Come on, Algy.
35:14We're going into conference with Mr. Draveno Gaius.
35:29He doesn't appear to be in.
35:37Lock the door, Algy.
35:43She was out.
35:45The game was up, Algy.
35:46He couldn't take it.
35:59Be careful.
36:00There may be hexade in there.
36:02There may be hexade in there.
36:13Ah.
36:15Is that it?
36:15That's it, Algy.
36:16Well, what are you going to do?
36:18I want it over to the authorities at Dover, I hope.
36:31Algy, do you smell perfume?
36:39Yes.
36:39That's odd, don't you think?
36:41I've smelled worse.
36:42What do you mean for a man to use perfume?
36:43I once knew a chap.
36:44Algy!
36:45What?
36:46Perhaps this isn't suicide.
36:48Huh?
36:48You mean a woman?
36:50Why not?
36:55Did she use the perfume we smell in here?
36:57You mean the woman who found me in there?
36:59Who else did you think I meant?
37:00I don't know.
37:01Well, did she?
37:01I just told you.
37:03You just told me what?
37:04I don't know.
37:06We'll soon find out.
37:07How?
37:08By knocking politely on her door and...
37:10Phyllis won't like it.
37:10But if somebody kills her, she still won't like it.
37:12You made a promise in case you forgot them.
37:16You're right, Algy.
37:17We'll hang on to this until we get to Dover.
37:19And then forget it, eh?
37:21Right.
37:38What's the matter?
37:39I'm jumpy.
37:40Relax, darling.
37:41Relax.
37:42If...
37:43Well, if someone did kill Nogais, and they find out that you have that bag...
37:46Nothing's going to happen.
37:48I...
37:48I hope you're right.
37:49But I think the chances are against it.
37:52What-ho!
37:54Well, Algy?
37:54The conductor says that is the telephone on the ferry.
37:57I'll phone Gwen the minute we get to Dover.
37:59Algy.
38:00What, what?
38:00Well, you were going through the train to see if you could find the woman who had the compartment next
38:04to Nogais.
38:04And if you did find her, to see if she used the perfume we smelled in his compartment, remember?
38:10I do, now.
38:12I give up.
38:14I wish you'd make up your mind.
38:15One minute you're through, and the next you're...
38:17Well, you're trying to make some innocent woman a criminal.
38:19But we don't know that she isn't.
38:20We don't know that she is.
38:21Ah, but she could be.
38:23So could I.
38:24Why pick on her?
38:25Isn't it strange they have adjoining compartments?
38:27Oh, I suppose so.
38:28I don't know.
38:31Come in.
38:32Here he is.
38:34Finished, honey.
38:37All right, darling, I'll give you a...
38:39Well, I think I'll...
38:41Careful!
38:45Excuse me, sir.
38:52I'd give a hundred pounds to know if she is the one.
38:56I've simply got to find out.
38:57You, Drummond, if you leave here, I'll take the next train back to London.
39:00I...
39:01Oh, I'm so nervous from looking at that bag, I can scream.
39:04Hey, sweetheart.
39:05But... but you promised.
39:07Well, you're right, sweet.
39:08I'm a dog.
39:09A mean, contemptible dog.
39:10You... you're not.
39:12Oh, yes, I am.
39:13Darling, I should know.
39:14I won't have you talk like that.
39:15There, there, sweetheart.
39:17This time I will forget it.
39:18We'll let the authorities handle it when we get to Dover, huh?
39:41Over there, Carl Newton.
39:44Green cutting.
39:45Hurry!
39:45Hurry!
39:54Drinking, what's up, Mark?
39:56I know, what's up.
40:09I know...
40:09It's a little bit too.
40:09Oh, yeah.
40:10Oh, yeah.
40:14Look out.
40:15Oh, yeah, I don't know.
40:32Yes, I know, but we're here.
40:34More than I ever expected.
40:36Well, goodbye, Phyllis, goodbye to you.
40:37I've got to make a dash for the telephone.
40:38I've got to make a dash for the salon with Phyllis.
40:40It's you.
40:40I've got to let Gwen know that I'm all right.
40:43No, old fellow, but until the police get here and we wind this thing up,
40:45you've got to take care of Phyllis.
40:47You ready, darling?
40:48I'm beginning to live again now that we're rarely here.
40:50That's the spirit.
40:51Yes.
40:54I beg your pardon, fellow.
40:55Tenny, you stay here and keep your eye on that bag until we get back.
40:58Alone, sir?
40:59Alone.
40:59Come on, darling.
41:02But don't you think I'll warn Elsie to all?
41:04Oh, I won't.
41:10But you've got to take back to that.
41:11Stay away, something else.
41:12I'll see you.
41:20When can I phone Gwen?
41:21Stay right with her, Elsie.
41:23When can I phone Gwen?
41:24Later, Elsie.
41:25Later.
41:40I'll see you later.
41:42I'll see you later.
41:43I'll see you later.
41:53Oh, I can't lose you, can I?
41:55I want to see you.
41:55Nogaius is on the train.
41:56You certain?
41:57As certain as I am of the fact that someone killed him.
41:59What?
41:59Some woman's my guess.
42:01Assume you're condoneer of this?
42:02Is he on the train?
42:03Supposed to be.
42:04Park on five, car nine.
42:06I haven't seen him.
42:07Have you told anybody else what's happened?
42:08No, I thought it best to keep my mouth shut.
42:10That's you're in your head by once.
42:12Let's go below.
42:14Where is he?
42:15Why doesn't he come?
42:17Why ask me?
42:17I'm only his fiancée.
42:31Close the door.
42:36A blow at the base of the brain.
42:39Nogaius, of course.
42:40I'm not so certain.
42:42What was that you said about a woman?
42:43You smell jasmine in here?
42:44Yes.
42:45I was in Nogaius' compartment, too.
42:47Kanda didn't say anything about a woman being.
42:50You know, you don't belong in this, you.
42:53But I am in it.
42:54I know.
42:55I may as well tell you, I suppose.
42:57You drag it out of me anyway, if I don't.
42:59Toomey Okanda telephoned me at the yard about 9.35.
43:02It was too late for me to catch the train.
43:04He just received word that Yusuf Merkal, suspected on the continent of dealing in war secrets,
43:09was coming aboard when we docked at Dunkirk.
43:12It indicates that he was to meet Nogaius and make a deal for the Haxanite.
43:15Certainly.
43:16And who's the woman?
43:18You tell me.
43:19Where's Nogaius?
43:20In my car.
43:22You know, you certainly have a way of stumbling into things that don't concern you.
43:26It's a gift, Kennell.
43:27I don't doubt it.
43:44This isn't Nogaius.
43:45It isn't Nogaius?
43:46No, Nogaius is dark.
43:47I must light a bill.
43:48You know the answer to this, don't you?
43:50Of course.
43:50This fellow, whoever he is, was in with Nogaius, and they evidently disagreed about something.
43:54If we make a detective of you, yes.
43:57Colonel.
43:58Well, pal.
43:58You say Nogaius is of slighter build?
44:00Yes.
44:00Then I've got it.
44:01The woman who killed Sumi Okanda and this fellow is Nogaius, disguised as a woman.
44:05I think you've got something there.
44:06I'll make a bet.
44:07Wait a minute.
44:08You say you have the Haxanite?
44:09Yes, my compartment.
44:10Have a look at it.
44:20All right, Sonny, open up.
44:23Anything happen?
44:24No, Jets.
44:25Close the door.
44:31Easy.
44:32If that run off, it'll lift this boat out of a channel.
44:37There it is.
44:39That is the Haxanite.
44:40What?
44:45Bath salts.
44:48Well, that means Nogaius is on the train and has the rail Haxanite.
44:51Captain Drummond.
44:51Yes, Tenny.
44:52May I retire, sir?
44:53Yes, go to bed.
44:54Good night, sir.
44:55Good night, Tenny.
44:56I want to look in that next compartment.
44:58Why was in there?
44:59A woman.
45:00Algie Saw.
45:00And if she uses the perfume we smell in the compartment adjoining hers, she's Nogaius.
45:05Have you seen this woman?
45:06No, confound it, but we're going to right now if she's in there.
45:24I knew it, Jasmine.
45:27We're still burning.
45:28And then Nogaius just left here.
45:31Underway, he must still be on the ship.
45:47Someone on the boat, probably.
45:52Just a moment, Colonel.
46:01Tenny.
46:02Tenny.
46:03Tenny.
46:04Coming, Sean.
46:07Get into my compartment.
46:08If anyone enters the one next to it, come and get me.
46:10Well, I find you, sir.
46:11I'm somewhere on the ship.
46:12We're going to search it.
46:13Come on, Colonel.
46:14Whose case is this?
46:15It's yours or mine.
46:43Mr. Longworth.
46:44Here I am, boys.
46:44Here I am.
46:45A radiogram, sir.
46:46Thank you, sir.
46:50What is it this time?
46:52If you love me, you would have answered my telegram you received on the train.
46:57She thinks I don't love her.
46:59But if you weren't on the train, you couldn't have received it.
47:01And if you're not on the boat, you won't have to answer this one either.
47:05Because if you're not on the boat, you won't get it.
47:08Nothing else?
47:10Please answer.
47:39Well, you could send her a radiogram.
47:41Well, can't I go to my compartment?
47:42I should say not.
47:43Well, then to your compartment.
47:44Well, you stay right here while you're safe.
47:46And to think, I'm marrying you.
47:48I'm sorry, sweetheart, but we've got to find him.
47:50Come on, Elsie.
48:05We can have another look around, Colonel, but we've made a thorough search.
48:09Are you certain you'd know her?
48:10Well, of course.
48:10He was wearing a...
48:11I mean, she was wearing...
48:12No, he was wearing...
48:13Never mind, Elsie.
48:13And now, can I send Gwen a radiogram?
48:15Yes, go ahead.
48:16When he comes back, we'll look again.
48:18As you wish, sir.
48:19In the meantime, I think I'll say hello to Phyllis.
48:24Nice, smooth crossing, madam.
48:26Yes, very smooth.
48:35Here, put this in, too.
48:39All right, close it and put it up there.
48:48Come on.
49:10Darling, I thought I told you not to.
49:12Shut up your hands.
49:13Turn around.
49:19Sit down, Captain Drummond.
49:20You too, miss.
49:23It seems you have the advantage.
49:25But definitely.
49:26You may lower your hands.
49:30I believe it's customary to ask me I smoke, isn't it?
49:32I trust you have better judgment than to attempt anything foolish.
49:36I assure you, sir, my judgment is excellent.
49:39It's too bad you couldn't take the brown suit.
49:40That gray doesn't become young.
49:41I like it.
49:42May I inquire what you intend to do?
49:45Under different circumstances, you and I could work well together, Drummond.
49:48You honor me, sir.
49:51Hmm.
50:03You.
50:04Are you there?
50:05Just a moment, Altie.
50:06You sit there, miss.
50:07I'll be watching her, Drummond.
50:08If you're smart, you'll act as if nothing is wrong.
50:11Let him in.
50:12Right on.
50:12Smile, darling.
50:13My gentleman means business.
50:16What's the trouble?
50:17Trouble, Altie?
50:18You said you were coming back.
50:19Colonel Nielsen's been waiting for you.
50:20I'll tell you how I feel about it, Altie.
50:22I'm fed up with this nonsense about Nogueas and Haxton.
50:24We'll let Nielsen handle it.
50:26You're not sick, are you, old boy?
50:27No, Altie, but after all, it is the Colonel's business, not mine.
50:30Now, will you run along like a good fellow?
50:31Oh, this isn't like you, Hugh.
50:33One must reform sometime, Altie, and even as you pointed out, I have made Phyllis a promise.
50:38But what?
50:39A promise, Altie.
50:42All right-o.
50:43Well, cheerio.
50:44Pip-pip.
50:44Pip-pip, old girl.
50:45Good night, Altie.
50:51Put up your hands.
50:52Get his gun, Tenny.
50:53Altie!
50:55Why, who is this?
50:56Get my gun in his pocket.
50:57Oh.
50:59Now get Colonel Nielsen.
51:00But don't you think, don't argue, get him.
51:04And now, you have the advantage.
51:07What, definitely.
51:08Won't you sit down and lower your hands?
51:13And to quote you, may I smoke?
51:16And to quote you, I trust you have better judgment than to attempt anything foolish.
51:21When one loses, one loses.
51:24That sounds original.
51:28May I trouble you for that bag?
51:32Sure.
51:35Careful, Hexenite!
51:39Look out, sir.
51:40He's gone!
51:42Stay here, Phyllis.
51:43You two, Tenny.
52:13Look out, he makes you look at me.
52:13He hasn't got a gun.
52:19You got a gun?
52:19No.
52:20Give him yours, Aldi.
52:21But then I will...
52:21What did I tell you?
52:22Yes, but...
52:22You take that.
52:23Well, I'll take the last.
52:24We'll search every car.
52:24You stay here and watch the door, Aldi.
52:26Oh.
52:39Joe!
52:40Colonel Leopold!
52:40Bill, stay back!
52:42Get out of here!
52:44He's on top of that car!
52:46Be careful!
52:47Behind you!
52:50Stay where you want, I guess.
52:51The game's up.
52:52Yes.
52:53For all of us.
52:59Glenn!
53:03Aldi!
53:04Thank you!
53:05Thank you!
53:07Thank you!
53:08Thank you!
53:10Thank you!
53:11Thank you!
53:12Thank you!
53:17Thank you!
53:19Thank you!
53:19Thank you!
53:20You feeling better?
53:21Hugh, I want to ask you something.
53:23Yes, darling.
53:25Come in.
53:27Will it be awful?
53:28Yes, honey.
53:29Good night.
53:29Good night, sir.
53:30Good night.
53:31Good night.
53:34What do you want to say?
53:35Do you only mean...
53:38Come in!
53:40Sorry to leave you, Hugh.
53:41I'm escorting our friend Nogueas to Paris.
53:42So, if I'm not at Geneva for the wedding...
53:45You'll understand.
53:46Try to be there, Captain.
53:47You know I will.
53:48Goodbye, Phyllis.
53:49Don't scold him too much.
53:50And don't try to reform him.
53:52It's impossible.
53:55Good work, old man.
53:56Thanks, Colonel.
53:59And now, darling.
54:01Do you really mean...
54:04That will be Aldi.
54:05Come in.
54:08You?
54:08Gwen's taking the plane to Paris.
54:10I'm going to see her tomorrow.
54:11It's fine, Aldi.
54:12Now, good night, old chap.
54:13Phyllis is trying to tell me something.
54:14Oh, yes, yes.
54:15Of course.
54:16Right-o.
54:22All right, now.
54:23Do I really mean...
54:24To give up this highly exciting way of living?
54:27Why, yes, dear.
54:28Of course.
54:28I promised.
54:29It isn't necessary.
54:31Why?
54:32Because...
54:33Well, as Danny says,
54:34I rather like it, sir.
54:36Darling!
54:49You?
54:54Don't say that, man!
