01:00Oh
01:30Oh
02:00Oh
02:30Oh
02:50You may inform the secretary of the Royal Society that I have entitled my Mittleman's lecture
02:57Darwin's fundamental
03:00error
03:01That'll raise a few hackles, sir
03:04Will it not?
03:05No must be off
03:07you can
03:09acknowledge all of these
03:12There's a good job
03:13Hey
03:15Father my dear. Did you hear how Roy barked last night?
03:19It was dreadful
03:21No, no, I didn't
03:23Did you hear him Bennett? I can't say it did sir. He kept on and on
03:28He howled too
03:30I'm sure someone got into the garden an intruder
03:34yes, because
03:37Father
03:39Someone looked in at me and my window
03:44impossible
03:46You must have been dreaming. Oh
03:49Edith
03:50Nobody could reach your window. It's far too far off the ground
03:54I'm sure I wasn't dreaming
03:58Bennett you take charge, but I shall be late for the faculty meeting
04:01I leave you in your fiance's care my dear
04:04If he proves as good a husband to you as he has a man who answers to me, you'll be a fortunate woman
04:10Alay her fears Bennett I know you can
04:13Can you believe me?
04:15Not easily. No, I mean as your father said come and look
04:18I'm awfully busy. I've got these notes on semester Tyrus the type and then the proof of your father's Jack. I
04:25Know I wasn't dreaming
04:27And you know Roy doesn't bark at nothing. I want you to see for yourself. You must please
04:36And then after the barking woke me I heard another sound from just below here
04:41From below there and there do you see the ivies pulled away? I
04:47Must have fainted
04:48The next thing I knew it was dawn
04:57You're quite quite certain you didn't dream this Edith. quite?
05:04Jack I insist you believe me
05:09Very well and that you inform Sherlock Holmes of the facts. Oh darling. Well, I shall reconsider our engagement
05:20I could not give my hand to a man who doubts my word
05:27I
05:58I
06:20Watson come at once if convenient
06:22If
06:26Inconvenient come all the same
06:33I got your note and
06:35It is inconvenient
06:37Damned inconvenient. Your old wound is troubling you
06:41No, I prefer to differ your step was uneven on the stairs. I
06:45Have a full surgery Holmes. You must excuse a certain
06:49Abstraction of mind Watson. I see. It's a tangled scheme. I
06:54Mean looking for the loose end which might unravel it
06:58One such might reside in the question
07:01Does professor Presley's daughter wake or dream?
07:07I'm summoned here for no more than this
07:11You've heard of Presley
07:14Of course who hasn't it's our most
07:17Distinguished natural scientist is a widower with one daughter. She assists someone appear at her window last night
07:27Miss Presley's bedroom is on the second floor
07:30And is completely inaccessible to even the most agile cat burglar this
07:36arrived by the one o'clock post ah
07:39Ah
07:42The author already arrives ahead of his time the most precipitate young man
07:47Mr. Bennett my friend a colleague. Dr. Watson. How do you do? Mr. Bennett, please sit down. No, forgive me. I
07:54Mr. Holmes, I fear I've made a grave error of judgment. I should not have been in touch with you at all
07:59I've wasted your time entirely
08:01You've discovered a rational reason for Miss Presley's fears. No. No, I can't say that
08:05Well, it's a it's a delicate matter, but I I must beg you to proceed no further. I can of course recompense you
08:16Mr. Bennett your letter was less than frank was it not I set out the facts
08:23Not all I suspect
08:25Probably out of loyalty to your fiancee miss Presley. You're aware of that as I am of your employers engagement to miss Alice Morphy
08:33The daughter of the famous comparative anatomist she resides next door to the presbyteries. Is she not?
08:38How do you know the engagement the times?
08:41July the 1st September the 5th respectively
08:45Mr. Holmes memories of a photographical order quite so
08:51Oh, dear
08:53Mr. Bennett, I do appreciate your predicament
08:56As a scientist and a rationalist yourself
08:58I dare say you reluctant to accept the evidence insisted upon by Miss Presley further as a father's trusted assistant
09:05To have recourse to me must smack to you of disloyalty exactly
09:09I'm part of the family except that Edith and Miss Presley. She was so upset that she
09:14Mr. Bennett, who would you prefer to alienate?
09:17Your prospective wife or a celebrated father. You give me a choice of evils
09:21Neither then furnish me with the facts and I will see how I can help you
09:26You may rely on the discretion of both of us
09:31Well, would you for example describe miss Tresbury as an impressionable fanciful girl
09:41No quite the reverse miss Alice Morphy perhaps professor Tresbury's engagement to her came to you as something of a surprise
09:49He is after all three times her age
09:52and this balloon I
09:55Prefer that one with the osprey feathers
10:00Could you ask him do you think
10:03Father's extremely proud of his orchids. I hate them
10:09They're so oh, I don't know so impure somehow
10:16Do please ask them not to send them anymore. There's a sweet friend Edith, please. Can you not ask you I couldn't I
10:23Daren't I'm such a coward
10:26Well, oh, please you've got so much more character than me. You're as strong as he but Alice
10:33If you dare not ask this of my father
10:36How will you ever manage those deeper conflicts that occur even in the happiest of marriages? Oh, I don't know
10:45I'm so frightened of marrying my father. I wish
10:50No, please don't ask let's not speak of it
10:58What do you think of this one?
11:00Neither miss Tresbury nor I consider her father's infatuation with miss Morphy to be
11:05Entirely appropriate rather excessive and her parents had no objections to the marriage
11:11The professor is a respectable widower and a wealthy man
11:20Where may I call?
11:22Call?
11:24To view miss Tresbury's window
11:26To determine for myself its accessibility or otherwise to an intruder. Shall we say 11 o'clock tomorrow morning?
11:30Professor Tresbury will be at his college
11:32That's of no matter at present. My inquiries are purely logistical.
11:36I have never had any secrets from the professor
11:38Mr. Bennet
11:40Let me refer you to your first question, which you have in fact answered
11:44You're more inclined to miss Tresbury's party
11:47You're more inclined to miss Tresbury's party than you are to your employers
11:53Yes, yes I dare say
11:55Thank you
11:57Good day
11:59Good day
12:11Holmes you're prying into the affairs of a perfectly respectable family
12:16Why is Bennet so reluctant to tell the truth?
12:18Loyalty it's as plain as a pike star
12:20Let us hope so
12:22Yet he wrote to me under duress
12:24You notice his handwriting
12:26The crossing of the T's with such deep indentation
12:28And then upon his arrival his endeavors to call the whole thing off
12:30No there's more to this than meets the eye
12:32I do not agree
12:34This case is unworthy of you
12:38I must return to my surgery
12:40Maybe I'll see you tomorrow
12:45Good day
13:16Father
13:22My dear
13:24I trust you slept better
13:26Oh yes
13:28Last night I removed to the guest bedroom
13:30Oh no need surely
13:32It was but an ugly dream
13:34Father
13:36Alice has asked me
13:38Yes
13:40The truth is she does not care for all kids
13:43She doesn't
13:47Well why did she not say so
13:49She was afraid to
13:51You forget how formidable you are father
13:55The silly girl
13:57Well then she shall have roses
13:59Yes
14:01Two dozen red roses
14:04Two dozen red roses
14:12The boy was quiet enough last night
14:14Not to rouse him sir
14:16Docility itself
14:18Mark change McPhail
14:20Aye
14:22He's got all accustomed to his shackles
14:24The poor beast
14:34Shall we go up
14:36If Miss Presbury has no objection
14:38I understand the necessity
14:40Let us lead the way my dear
14:46I'm glad you're by yourself today Watson
14:48You were a veritable bear yesterday
14:50A touch liverish perhaps
14:58This is where the figure appeared
15:00Yes
15:03Was there anyone on the premises that could reach this height
15:05No
15:07Was the window ajar
15:09Yes I keep the door locked
15:11Did the hand touch the window pane
15:13I don't know
15:15I fainted
15:17Of course you did
15:23It's a formidable elevation
15:27Yet the ivy is strong
15:30Hedra labriensis
15:32Torn away just here
15:38Ah
15:40Miss Presbury your father has returned prematurely
15:42No he mustn't know you're here Mr Holmes
15:44That can scarcely be avoided
15:46However let us get out
15:48The back stairs
15:50Certainly not
15:56Bennett
15:58What did you do in my lecture
16:02Who the devil are you sir
16:04Father I'm sorry
16:06Mr Sherlock Holmes
16:08Who
16:10The detective
16:12Professor Presbury
16:14My card
16:20221B
16:24Hardly an address to inspire confidence
16:28I've never sought to inspire confidence in others
16:30I have quite enough of my own
16:32May I introduce my colleague Dr Watson
16:34Certainly not you may leave at once the pair of you
16:36Father they are here at our request
16:38But not mine Edith
16:40And you Bennett
16:42You should have consulted me before resorting to such methods
16:44A common detective and his accomplice
16:46Really
16:48Now sir
16:50Allow me to escort you from the premises
16:54My assistant had no authority to engage you in this matter
16:57No further should you persist
16:59I shall have no hesitation in calling the police
17:01This strait of the yard is well known to me so beware
17:03I would not hesitate in calling the strait professor
17:05If you wish to have the mystery solved
17:07There is no mystery sir
17:09None
17:11I'll be gone with you
17:13Or would you have me release my dog
17:15Believe me you'll not distinguish between a hired snoop
17:17And a low intruder
17:21I would have be gone sir with you
17:23We shall sir we shall
17:26As a breed
17:28Despite their ferocious appearance
17:30Such dogs are seldom vicious
17:32I'm surprised that Roy needs chaining at all
17:36Unless it is for your safety as much as I have
17:56The dog reflects family life Watson
18:18Does it indeed
18:22Who heard of a frisky dog in a gloomy home
18:25Or a sad dog in a happy one
18:29Snarling people have snarling dogs
18:33You observed the president's Irish wolfhound as well as I
18:35He growled quite as much at his master as he did at us
18:37Two complete strangers
18:39That animal did not reserve its animosity solely for the professor
18:43Well we'll seek verification from young Bennett when he arrives
18:47I said word by way of Jock McPhail
18:49After our meeting at the goat encompasses
18:51Another of your agents Holmes
18:54The president's coachman
18:56His child of Roy
18:58I joined him last night for what he calls a wee goldie
19:00Ah yes Bennett
19:02Precipitous as ever
19:04Come in
19:06Good morning
19:08Mr. Holmes
19:10Dr. Watson
19:12I must apologize for your unfortunate encounter yesterday
19:14But also
19:16There's no need
19:18In fact it has provided the very first clue to this odd affair
19:20Do sit down
19:23Thank you
19:25Mr. Holmes I cannot pretend I am happy to have answered your summons
19:27Of course
19:29And I continue to appreciate the division of your loyalties
19:31It's no small wonder that you have withheld so much
19:41Roy first attacked his master on the evening of September the 2nd did he not
19:43How can you know that
19:45As the professor came from his study into the hall
19:47You restrained the dog
19:49On this occasion he was merely shut up in the scullery
19:52Next morning he was as right as rain
19:54Or so Macphail informs me
19:56Macphail
19:58Who better than the family coachman to advise me how matters might truly stand
20:02Forgive me Mr. Holmes
20:04I should have told you myself
20:06But you didn't
20:08The second attack occurred 13 days later
20:10Again the professor was in the hall
20:12Fortunately this time he was able to put the study door
20:14Between himself and the altered animal was he not
20:16Edith wanted Roy chained from that moment
20:18But her father overruled her
20:21He insisted that he was still a dear affectionate dog
20:23That he wasn't congenitally vicious
20:25But not after the third attack
20:27No
20:29He did agree then that he had to be restrained
20:31And Roy was banished to the chain in the stable yard
20:33Yes
20:35Macphail believes that the change in Roy's behaviour
20:37Stems from about two months ago
20:39I think it may have
20:41I didn't keep a strict note of it
20:43Consult your fiance Bennett and Macphail
20:45The precise log of these events
20:47May yet prove pertinent
20:49I observed that the professor lectures at the university
20:51At two o'clock this afternoon
20:53I shall call then
20:55No I couldn't possibly agree
20:57No
20:59Bennett
21:01Miss Presbyter did not dream
21:03Someone or something looked in upon her
21:05It is my conviction that your fiance
21:07Is in grave danger
21:09From whom
21:11No sir
21:13From whom
21:15Or from what
21:19The secretary
21:21You handle the professor's correspondence
21:23Oh yes it's my responsibility
21:25To open every letter
21:27Has it always been Miss Presbyter's
21:29Habit to lock her bedroom door at night
21:33Um
21:35No
21:37Well she told me that
21:39Yes
21:41It was after Roy began to behave so strangely
21:43But she too became afraid of the dog
21:45Mr. Holmes you mustn't touch his desk
21:48Bennett
21:50Thank you
22:04Inform me of the correspondence
22:06The professor had with someone called
22:08Dorak
22:12Inhabiting
22:14Cornmead
22:18No no no
22:20Commercial road of course
22:22You see
22:24It would appear that the professor
22:26Answers such correspondence himself
22:28Well again
22:30Um
22:32Again you've been reluctant to speak
22:34Yes
22:36Some eight weeks ago
22:38He told me that certain missives
22:40Might arrive from East Central marked by a cross
22:42Under the stamp
22:44The code
22:47And did they? Regularly?
22:49Irregularly
22:51I was to leave them unopened and speak of them to no one
22:53You said missive
22:55They were not letters
22:57Well some were others were small packets
22:59And did you observe professor Presbyter's replies
23:01No they didn't pass through my hands
23:03Yet the evidence would suggest that he did respond
23:05To the Hindu
23:07The dog is a traditional enemy of the monkey
23:09What was that Watson
23:11What
23:13Nothing
23:16Oh
23:18I wasn't aware
23:20No I couldn't tell you you'd already gone out
23:22I see
23:24I've invited Alice to take tea with us
23:26Do not be too severe upon your fiancee
23:28Miss Presbytery
23:30He has acted for the best
23:32And please will you
23:34Continue to lock your door at night
23:36The prowler who looked in upon you is no ordinary creature
23:38Good day
23:41Jack
23:43Jack
23:45You shouldn't have brought him in here
23:47I didn't want to but he insisted
23:49This is his grave danger
23:51Was that Sherlock Holmes
23:53The Sherlock Holmes
23:57Your observation goes to the very heart of this business Watson
23:59Observation
24:01It's selling the monkey and the dog at the very heart of it
24:03You think so
24:05Now if you'd be so kind as to accompany me to the university
24:07You can drive on to the commercial road
24:10That's not an address Holmes
24:12The commercial road is a mile long from Aldgate East to Limehouse
24:14Then ask a costume monger for a Doric shop
24:16Shop
24:18Come on Watson I'm getting late
24:26The equatorial rainforests of Africa
24:28Asia and Southern America
24:30Are filled with the sound and movement
24:32Of a multitude
24:34Of species from the primate family
24:36To conclude therefore
24:39This physical activity
24:41The swinging amongst branches
24:43The flying leaps
24:45From treetop to treetop
24:47And loud raucous cawing
24:49Not only
24:51Defines territorial rights
24:53In the forest
24:55For example for food gathering
24:57The tender shoots of tree and shrub
24:59Are particularly prized
25:01But also is frequently
25:03Among the males
25:05A ritual display
25:08Either to warn off
25:10Unwelcome intruders
25:12Or to impress a particular female
25:14With the sexual potential
25:16Of the performer
25:18Thank you
25:37Oh
26:08Oh
26:28Good afternoon
26:30Looking for something are you
26:32I believe there's some livery sables here nearby
26:34No
26:36Oh right
26:38Right you are
26:40It's a dead end cock
26:42I could see a way through
26:44Are you a narc or what
26:46Not at all
26:48Out
26:50I'm sorry
26:52I said out
27:02You just can't take an id can you
27:05I beg your pardon
27:07I said out and I meant out
27:09No admittance mate
27:11These are commercial premises
27:13What do you mean by that
27:15I mean it's a shop
27:17It must be early closing day
27:19This is ridiculous
27:21Is it
27:27My dearest trade
27:29I am astonished that you
27:31A man of your standing
27:34Professor Presbury objects most strenuously
27:36To your investigations Mr. Holmes
27:38His complaint
27:40Is that of unjustified harassment
27:42The justification has yet to be proved
27:44Has Presbury informed you of the facts
27:46Of course
27:48And your conclusions
27:50A girl half asleep
27:52Mistook a cat
27:54Or a bird or both
27:56For an intruder
27:58That's all
28:00Such a simple explanation
28:03However it begs the question
28:05Of the family dog does it not
28:07Does it
28:09What dog
28:11Presbury did not mention Roy's part in this affair
28:13Strange
28:15Clearly a partial witness
28:17I suggest you ask him
28:19You're not in full possession of the facts
28:21Of this complex case
28:23Trust you to say there's more to it than meets the eye Mr. Holmes
28:25I never concern myself in anything without that stimulus
28:27If you persist you may find yourself
28:29At the wrong end of a private prosecution you know
28:32Professor Presbury is a determined man
28:34Then we're fairly matched are we not
28:36I knew it
28:38Girl I've said my say
28:40Mr. Holmes
28:42Strange
29:02You alright you can do it
29:04Yeah easier than maids
29:06Poor old fella
29:32144
29:48Commercial road
29:50Oh you located Donner good
29:52He appears to run a general store
29:54As far as I can tell
29:56Sells everything from flat irons to fish hooks
29:58Can you be more specific
30:01Can't be a very prosperous business
30:03Why not
30:05Because the general public are not allowed in
30:09Did you discover anything else
30:11Apart from being threatened by an unhelpful brute
30:13In an alley at the side very little
30:15He obviously works there
30:17Because he followed me back to the shop and threatened me again
30:19Oh there was another fellow
30:21Sharply dressed loud waistcoat
30:23With a moustache
30:25Sherwood
30:27Yes yes he did
30:30Mary Wilcox
30:32More usually of Sarah Square than the East End
30:34Anything further
30:36No not really
30:38Except the smell
30:40There was a very odd smell about the place
30:42Well what
30:44It's not easy to say
30:46Belonged to the animal kingdom
30:48Straw or stables
30:50More like a zoo
31:00Oh
31:10You're still up
31:12Yes sir I thought I might finish these proofs
31:14Very conscientious of you
31:16But no no you get to bed
31:18I'd rather not sir
31:20I should like
31:22Get to bed
31:24Go on with you
31:26Yes sir
31:29Good night
31:35Night sir
31:37Good night

32:34What is it
32:36I saw
32:38I can't describe
32:40The intruder
32:42We must rouse your father
32:48Professor Presbury
32:50Father
32:52Sir sir
32:54What is it
32:56Jack thought he saw
32:58I fancied I
33:00I heard an intruder sir
33:02You did
33:04Yes Roy too was exercised
33:06But when I looked out just now
33:08There was nothing and he's since quietened down
33:10Listen
33:12But you thought you saw
33:14Yes I thought I saw
33:16Yes
33:20An animal
33:23Animal
33:27No must have been a trick of the light
33:29Must have been
33:31Yes sir
33:33I was mistaken
33:35My apologies
33:41Bennett
33:43Yes sir
33:45Get some sleep
33:47Yes sir
33:52Good night
34:23Good night
34:26Come on
34:52Watson
34:56Watson
35:00Watson
35:18Manifestly a gang is at work
35:20Other zoological gardens have reported similar deaths
35:22Oh yes
35:25I was in Bristol investigating the theft of two rhesus monkeys
35:27And a baboon
35:29Removed only last week
35:31A travelling menagerie in Oxfordshire
35:33Lost a prized chimpanzee
35:35And Maidstone their finest gorilla
35:37Big Charlie
35:39Delightful chap I knew him well
35:41They've all disappeared
35:43Without a trace
35:45And Mr Holmes what's his interest
35:47He insisted to me
35:49That this may have relevance to another case he has in hand
35:51We like to indulge him
35:54Find anything to the purpose
35:56Nothing much
35:58I warned you
36:00My men have been through it with a tooth comb
36:02The lock was released by Swell Jenkins of Stepney Green
36:04The primate
36:06Was quietened with a pad of chloroform
36:08Administered by someone who lavishes their hair
36:10With Mr Brewster
36:12Of German Streets Pommage
36:14This would suggest that he also
36:16Sports a waxed moustache
36:18Mr Brewster being celebrated for his cosmetic wax
36:20For gentlemen
36:23You could do worse than have a word
36:25With Harry the Tash Wilcox of Soho
36:27Good lord Holmes
36:29We want nothing much
36:31We'll be anyone else's a great deal
36:33Yes well I'm sure my men will arrive at the same conclusion
36:35Once their reports are to hand
36:37You will also naturally have noticed Mr Strait
36:39That this is the sixth reported theft
36:41Of a mature male primate in as many weeks
36:43Is it six
36:45Good old exceptional
36:47The gender of the animals removed
36:49Is I suggest of the essence
36:52Come in
37:12Come in
37:18My dearest Alice
37:21No no
37:23I wasn't seriously engaged
37:25Just some notes for future enquiry nothing more
37:29Shall we go through to the drawing room
37:31This is hardly the place to entertain a young lady
37:33No
37:35Oh dear
37:37My dear child
37:39What is the matter
37:41I ought to have said before
37:43What you
37:45What
37:47There
37:49You must take it back
37:53Oh Alice
37:55I can't marry you
37:57I shouldn't have said I would
37:59But I was afraid to say no
38:01Please take it back
38:03Nonsense this is simply a
38:05No you must take it
38:07There
38:09I'm sorry
38:11Alice
38:13No
38:16You're so old
38:22Sir Bennett actually saw the intruder's shadow
38:24Inside the house
38:26But upon investigation
38:28You could find no further trace
38:30You must get this to him by way of the butcher's boy
38:32Are you coming
38:34Where to
38:36Dorax Emporium
38:38Especially as past Swell Jenkins took such pains to guard against you
38:40Are you game
38:42Delighted
38:44Fire arm east of Old Gate Watson
39:14Fire arm west of Old Gate Watson
39:44It's as I feared
40:15We was reckoning on a visit Mr Holmes
40:17Wilcox
40:21Jenkins
40:45My heavens Holmes
40:47This is what I smelt
40:49These are Dorax patients
40:51Poor abused creatures
40:53Have you observed the experiments
40:55That Dorax performs on them
40:57Oh no that's none of our business he says
40:59You found yourself fortunate
41:01But the process has been kept from you
41:05Now gentlemen
41:07In you go
41:09In there with him why
41:11To await the police
41:14You shall rise
41:16Inspector Lestrade at once
41:18You can't leave us in here
41:20Remember the gorilla is a social animal
41:22And if you both mind your manners
41:24You will do well enough my dear sir
41:27Ah
41:43Ah Mr Bennett and Miss Presley
41:45Yes
41:47I decided I had to accompany Jack Mr Holmes
41:49I'm delighted have you brought the list of missing dates
41:51Yes
41:53Roy also barked on these nights
41:56We have far more urgent matters to impart
41:58Is that so
42:00Miss Morphy has renounced my father
42:02She's returned his reign
42:04Today since when he has remained locked in his study
42:06Every time I've knocked he's shouted abuse at me
42:08We fear
42:10The logic of it Watson
42:12Of this progression do you see it
42:14Please
42:16The first three occasions are self evident
42:18We know of those
42:20What happened on the 5th of October
42:22Roy barked all night
42:25Mr Professor received packages from London East Central
42:27This is the date on which the face appeared at the window
42:29Four nights ago
42:31Yes
42:33And this is where the shadow appeared last night
42:35Of course
42:39The common factor is two
42:41Always the gap decreases by two days
42:43Nonsense
42:45And today
42:47Is the 21st of October
42:50Did
42:52Yes
42:54Package arrived this morning
42:58The crisis is upon us
43:00Last night was but the precursor
43:02Can't we miss go at once
43:04Come along come along
43:06I'll explain on the way
43:20It's open
43:30Examine upstairs Watson
43:46I thought as much
43:50Did you hear Mr Holmes
43:58Up there look
44:06I have told you
44:08You were right
44:20Ha ha ha
44:36He's heading across to Miss Morphy's house
44:38Menace stay here and protect Miss Pesmey
44:44Ha ha ha
44:50Ha ha
44:54Ha ha
44:56Ha ha
45:14Ha ha
45:16Is anyone there
45:20It's locked
45:22Menace last break
45:38Dog Watson stop
45:40Ha ha ha
45:42Ha ha ha
45:46Ha ha
45:50Stay away
46:12It's a close thing
46:14Just missed the carotid artery
46:16Is he alright
46:18He'll live
46:20A reformed man I have no doubt
46:22After his experience
46:24My dear Lestrade
46:26I quite intended you to have the credit
46:28But to complete the case against Dorak
46:30Wilcox and Jenkins
46:32You'll need this
46:34Here is the incontrovertible proof
46:36That those animals you've rescued from degradation
46:38Were stolen
46:40For the sake of their glands
46:42The animal extract will be sold at enormous profit
46:44To those foolish or desperate enough
46:47To restore their lost vitality
46:49Without any other effects
46:51I'm grateful to you Mr. Holmes
46:53Thanks to you we've traced the evil to its source
46:55Perhaps
46:57But poor Pesmey
46:59When one tries to rise above nature
47:01One is liable to fall below it
47:05The highest type of man
47:07May revert to the animal
47:09When he leaves the straight road of destiny
47:11Yes well
47:13I'll leave the philosophy to you Mr. Holmes
47:16Quite the best Lestrade
47:18I always do
47:20Is the wolfhound to be destroyed
47:22Oh no
47:24No it was the monkey that Roy attacked
47:26Not the man
47:28But the dog will be himself again
47:30Quite as much as his master
47:32Well thank you both
47:34Good day gentlemen
47:36Good day Lestrade
47:38If I may say so Holmes
47:40I think you went a little too far
47:42In allowing Lestrade all the credit
47:45You can file it away in our archives
47:47One day the entire truth can be told
49:44you
