00:01:00It's entirely set to go, except Marnie.
00:03:29Yes?
00:03:54Good morning, sir.
00:03:55Good morning.
00:04:05Ambrose?
00:04:08Sir?
00:04:11My razor is missing.
00:04:12The black one.
00:04:13Ah, but sir, I placed it there myself.
00:04:15Do you expect me to believe this is my property?
00:04:19The printing of R and M is entirely different.
00:04:21Sir, I...
00:04:22Ambrose, is that the best you could do, buy a cheap razor?
00:04:25You didn't bother to look for mine, just bought a cheap coffee.
00:04:28Thought I would know my personal property.
00:04:31Leave.
00:04:34Ambrose?
00:04:36Sir?
00:04:39How is my daughter?
00:04:40Oh, Miss Denise is doing well, sir.
00:04:44Miss Denise is sleeping, sir.
00:04:58I told you to leave, Ambrose.
00:05:01Don't stand there behind me.
00:05:03You make me nervous.
00:05:04Hello?
00:05:05Oh, don't get so nervous, sir Robert.
00:05:11Who are you?
00:05:12Oh, Marnie, don't you recognize your bosom friend?
00:05:17Without a hat.
00:05:18Leg.
00:05:19That's right.
00:05:20Joe Leg.
00:05:21You're right, my friend.
00:05:22To forget is most unkind, even though it's 20 years since you've seen this face.
00:05:35I even remember your beautiful wife, Cornelia.
00:05:38Don't you mention her name, you swine.
00:05:41I'll call the police.
00:05:42Stop.
00:05:43My Robert, it's pointless to call the police, because I'm free as the air.
00:05:50Well, how does that make you feel?
00:05:53What happened is, the statute of limitations rescued me.
00:05:57Just because of it, I'm free as ever.
00:06:00Very unfortunate if I told who helped me in a big bank robbery, now wouldn't it, Marnie?
00:06:08What do you want from me, Leg?
00:06:10Oh, nothing.
00:06:11Really, nothing.
00:06:12I'd just like to leave a few of my things here at your estate.
00:06:17What kind of things?
00:06:19Nothing important.
00:06:20Just a few boxes.
00:06:22I just thought it would be nicer for you, a member of Parliament, to have my things.
00:06:26Don't you agree?
00:06:27I wouldn't consider it, believe me, because you brought me trouble once.
00:06:33That's it.
00:06:34I understand.
00:06:36You'll understand also.
00:06:38First of all, we'll have a meeting tonight.
00:06:41You'll be there, and then I'll explain it.
00:06:43Meet with you?
00:06:44That's right.
00:06:45This evening.
00:06:46Then be there on time, 8 o'clock, the Club Hilo in the Soho District.
00:06:5113 will be the room number.
00:06:54You shouldn't have forgotten it.
00:06:57Thirteen.
00:06:59Yes.
00:07:01I remember.
00:07:03Then come.
00:07:05You very well should come.
00:07:07Because if you don't come...
00:07:10By the way, I've been told that your daughter is extremely beautiful.
00:07:14Well, I'm sure you'd like her to remain that way.
00:07:18But perhaps...
00:07:21You filth, you.
00:07:23Who sent for you?
00:07:25It's 9.30, and I was called.
00:07:28There's a pick-up here for my cab.
00:07:31You're mistaken.
00:07:32Who phoned for you?
00:07:34It's all right, Ambrose.
00:07:36It's my taxi.
00:07:38Oh, but...
00:07:39You mustn't look so astonished, Ambrose.
00:07:42Did you forget how a servant acts in the presence of his master?
00:07:46I don't think so.
00:07:48Oh, but...
00:07:49You mustn't look so astonished, Ambrose.
00:07:51Did you forget how a servant acts in 20 years?
00:07:54I beg your pardon, sir.
00:07:56Think about it, Ambrose.
00:07:58Think. It'll return to you in a while.
00:08:00Let's go.
00:08:04Leg.
00:08:05Joe Leg.
00:08:18Joe Leg.
00:08:36This is Patrol Car 63.
00:08:38Give me Inspector Banner.
00:08:40Superintendent Sir John will handle this case himself.
00:08:43The super himself?
00:08:45Oh, my goodness.
00:08:47Do you hear? The super himself is going to...
00:08:49We're really onto something.
00:08:51Here, Sir John.
00:08:55Sir, I've been following Joe Leg.
00:08:57I followed him out to Marnie Castle,
00:08:59and I can report that he stayed there
00:09:01precisely nine minutes and 20 seconds.
00:09:03What? Have you lost your mind?
00:09:06You allowed a criminal like that
00:09:08to enter a home of a respectable member of society
00:09:11and... and... and...
00:09:13No arrest?
00:09:14But, sir, I have strict orders not to arrest him.
00:09:17Oh, nonsense.
00:09:19Well, never mind those silly new orders.
00:09:21Granted all, no wonder those crooks
00:09:23make fools of us of... of... of...
00:09:26Now, wait.
00:09:28Let's be calm and control ourselves, huh?
00:09:30Now, listen carefully.
00:09:32Keep following Leg's car and find out where he's going.
00:09:35But don't lose it.
00:09:36It can't happen, sir.
00:09:38It's right ahead of us.
00:09:39You can trust me, sir.
00:09:44Hello?
00:09:45Hello, horse.
00:09:46Is everything all right?
00:09:48Very good, sir.
00:09:49Nothing's wrong, sir.
00:09:50Everything is just fine.
00:09:54Ah, well, report by phone
00:09:56and don't make a mess of it all.
00:09:59Now, what do you make of that?
00:10:02A rotten gangster like Joe Leg
00:10:04visiting the gentleman Sir Robert Marnie.
00:10:06Why?
00:10:07Shh, I've got to think about it.
00:10:10I mustn't make a big mistake.
00:10:12It's funny Sir Robert's connected with this man.
00:10:16I'm perplexed.
00:10:18No, there's no connection.
00:10:20I think Sir Robert will call us.
00:10:22You mean to make a report of it?
00:10:24Ah, well, that could be.
00:10:27But then, we shall wait and see.
00:10:35Sorry, Mr Grey is busy.
00:10:39Grey here, who is it?
00:10:41This is Sir Robert Marnie speaking.
00:10:43You might know of me.
00:10:44Yes, yes, Member of Parliament.
00:10:46That's correct.
00:10:47Mr Grey, I must see you at once.
00:10:48It's urgent.
00:10:50Urgent, hmm.
00:10:52Frankly, I'm busy now.
00:10:53Call me tomorrow.
00:10:54It's a matter of life and death, Grey.
00:10:58Life and death?
00:10:59Yes.
00:11:00It's sounding more interesting.
00:11:04Yes.
00:11:05Please.
00:11:06Very good.
00:11:07All right, Sir Robert.
00:11:08I'll come.
00:11:10Yes, Sir Robert.
00:11:11I'll come.
00:11:36Boss, the box has just arrived.
00:11:38Good.
00:11:39These may be trying to follow me.
00:11:40Take a look outside, will you?
00:11:42Right away, Legg.
00:12:07Yes.
00:12:09Yes.
00:12:10Yes.
00:12:11Hmm.
00:12:12Yes.
00:12:14Just as I thought, our own Master Sleuth, Sergeant Horse, has fouled up again.
00:12:18That blithering idiot.
00:12:20Don't worry, Sir.
00:12:21One of our woman agents just called in.
00:12:23Joe Legg is at the Islay Club right now.
00:12:26We even have his room number.
00:12:28Oh, that's fine, Inspector.
00:12:30I have a few small inquiries to ask that gentleman.
00:12:32Come with us, Inspector.
00:12:34Get the bridge and the switch house.
00:12:39The switch house, here.
00:12:42And the bridge, here.
00:12:47Boss, I'll be hanged if you make yourself clear.
00:12:50What are we playing with toys for?
00:12:51You say you'll be hanged?
00:12:53What a choice of words.
00:12:55But I tell you, Mr. Legg is not here at all.
00:12:57Wow, that's enough.
00:12:59Must be down the hall.
00:13:02Here we are.
00:13:05All right.
00:13:06There it is.
00:13:07Well, look for yourself.
00:13:09See, nothing.
00:13:10It's empty.
00:13:13Why don't you make yourself at home?
00:13:18I have no idea what this gangster proposes to do.
00:13:21But you'll have to protect my daughter.
00:13:23It's her I'm worried about now.
00:13:26If anything happened to her, I just wouldn't know what to do.
00:13:31All right.
00:13:34All right, Sir Robert.
00:13:35I know the problem.
00:13:36My suggestion is you meet him at this high-low club.
00:13:40Go to your meeting there and watch yourself.
00:13:43And try to find out what his thoughts are and exactly how you fit into them.
00:13:51Can't be done.
00:13:56Isn't there something important that you're not telling me, Sir Robert?
00:14:00Something that happened between you and Joe Legg?
00:14:03You must tell me, even if it happened 20 years ago.
00:14:07Watch what you're saying, Gray.
00:14:10I'm not a liar.
00:14:11All right, Sir Marnie, but I'm not used to working blindfolded.
00:14:15But if you're withholding anything...
00:14:21Come on out of there.
00:14:24I've got a revolver.
00:14:26I'm giving you three seconds.
00:14:29One, two...
00:14:33What? Are you crazy?
00:14:36Denise, are you all right?
00:14:39You could have been killed.
00:14:41I didn't know it could be so dangerous living in one's own house.
00:14:44But with lunatics shooting at you...
00:14:47But why were you hiding, young woman?
00:14:50I wasn't hiding, young man.
00:14:51I've been in the alcove since you and Father entered the room.
00:14:54You should have come out.
00:14:56But he ordered a man to come out.
00:14:59I'm a woman.
00:15:00Then may I ask you out in another way?
00:15:03Have supper with me.
00:15:05You seem to be a man who loves to play games, don't you?
00:15:09As a matter of policy, I never accept invitations with a pistol pointed at me.
00:15:14As a matter of policy, I never accept invitations with a pistol pointed at me.
00:15:18Excuse me.
00:15:43No, I've had enough.
00:15:45You can clear the table.
00:15:46Any more excitement for me?
00:15:48Why?
00:15:50Well, this club is different from...
00:15:51Quite different.
00:15:52You know, I thought you'd get skittish coming with me to the high-low club.
00:15:56Honestly?
00:15:57But with a private detective.
00:16:01Your father was...
00:16:16But which train?
00:16:17Hold on.
00:16:18The provincial banks send their money in for collection on Friday nights in London.
00:16:22This heavily guarded express train leaves Liverpool at 9.08
00:16:27and arrives at Paddington station at 3.58 a.m.
00:16:30Who is that leaning on that bloody buzzer?
00:16:32I told them not to disturb us.
00:16:34Well, what is it?
00:16:35It's important.
00:16:36The new train is arriving at 9.08 a.m.
00:16:39It's the last one.
00:16:40It's the last one.
00:16:41It's the last one.
00:16:42It's the last one.
00:16:43It's the last one.
00:16:44Well, what is it?
00:16:45It's important.
00:16:46Denise Marnie is in the nightclub.
00:16:48Do you know who her escort is?
00:16:49Tell me.
00:16:50Johnny Gray.
00:16:51Who's that?
00:16:52Who's that?
00:16:53I've been away, Pierre.
00:16:54He's the best detective in London and you will have to watch him.
00:16:57Well, it seems that Papa Marnie is going to cause us trouble after all.
00:17:00We'll see about that.
00:17:01I'll take care of the girl later.
00:17:03Now, listen to me, my beauties.
00:17:05The most important part of this operation is precise timing.
00:17:09I'll be informed if the train is not on time.
00:17:10We'll stop the train at milestone 7.21, here.
00:17:14Next, we take over the Bakersville switch house.
00:17:16From there, we change the main signal.
00:17:18The timetable shows that the freight train should be coming through at 3.21.
00:17:23The switch house has only one man in it at midnight.
00:17:26Joyce and Edwards will handle taking care of him.
00:17:29And don't make an error with the signals, you hear?
00:17:31It's number TR39A, here.
00:17:34Memorize it.
00:17:36The second group will consist of U5.
00:17:38As soon as the train stops at the signal,
00:17:40three of you board the locomotive and take care of the engineer and fireman.
00:17:44The remaining two of you will crawl between the second baggage and first baggage car
00:17:48and then couple the mail car from the rest of the train.
00:17:51Now, you'll take the locomotive and the first baggage car another 1,000 yards
00:17:56to the bridge.
00:17:58There, Blackstone will be waiting.
00:18:01Here.
00:18:02At this point.
00:18:04This siding must be switched exactly four minutes after the main signal is turned to stop.
00:18:09It's number OM38A.
00:18:13If the OM and TR are mixed up,
00:18:15you'd better order your corfins.
00:18:18Got me?
00:18:19Yeah, all right.
00:18:20Good.
00:18:21Let's go on.
00:18:22A truck will be waiting on the bridge.
00:18:24Do you have your guns?
00:18:25Right here.
00:18:27You approach the mail car and knock on the door.
00:18:30Have your guns ready.
00:18:31Be careful.
00:18:32When the guard answers,
00:18:34you explain to them the axle is overheated.
00:18:38Hmm.
00:18:39Must be my visitor.
00:18:59Flag?
00:19:08Joe Legg.
00:19:19Ah, good evening, Sir Robert.
00:19:22Punctual as always, I see.
00:19:24Have a seat?
00:19:25Have a scotch?
00:19:26No.
00:19:27I want to come right to the point, Legg.
00:19:29Ah, I understand that.
00:19:31By the way, it was nice of you to bring your daughter here to the club.
00:19:34But it's awful.
00:19:35She's in such terrible company.
00:19:37Terrible company?
00:20:00You come here often?
00:20:01She seems to know you.
00:20:03Oh, Denise.
00:20:05But I don't know her.
00:20:06I've never been in this place before.
00:20:09But she does seem to be looking toward us.
00:20:22I'll be back in a minute.
00:20:36Hmm.
00:20:47I figure that she's either a member of the mob
00:20:49that uses the back rooms of this club
00:20:52or she's trying to warn us of something.
00:20:54I'll go and check into it.
00:20:57I won't be gone long and perhaps I'll find your father.
00:21:06Hmm.
00:21:27Ah, Iggy.
00:21:29How's every little thing, huh?
00:21:31What do you want?
00:21:32You don't belong back here.
00:21:33Oh, you're so protective.
00:21:34I'm really looking forward to the hour when this place is shut down.
00:21:37Then you'll be arrested.
00:21:38Me, arrested?
00:21:39Yes.
00:21:40Not me, never.
00:21:41Oh, my God.
00:21:42Oh, my God.
00:21:43Oh, my God.
00:21:44Oh, my God.
00:22:10You will cooperate and take orders from me.
00:22:14Is that clear?
00:22:20I need your castle in order to ensure a successful plan.
00:22:24You ruined my life once before, Legg.
00:22:30Yes?
00:22:31There's trouble.
00:22:32Wanda was murdered right in front of everybody.
00:22:34By a shaving blade.
00:22:37Is that so?
00:22:39You'll hear from me.
00:22:40What happened?
00:22:42Not much.
00:22:44Just some girl got it.
00:22:47With a straight razor.
00:22:50A murder?
00:22:52Who?
00:22:54Just be calm.
00:22:57It wasn't your daughter who died this time.
00:23:00But who can tell what might happen?
00:23:02Listen, Legg, I'll do anything you ask of me.
00:23:04As long as you don't touch my daughter.
00:23:06That's entirely understandable.
00:23:07All you have to do is help me get rid of this detective.
00:23:09Then everything will be all right.
00:23:11But right now, you should get out of here.
00:23:14The police are coming here.
00:23:16I'll see that you get home.
00:23:17No, my car is waiting.
00:23:18Besides, I want Denise to come home with me.
00:23:20I'll drive you back.
00:23:21But, uh, my car is, uh...
00:23:23You do as I say.
00:23:25Well, she's covered up in a way she never expected.
00:23:28Young man, if this is a private club,
00:23:30you must have a list of the members and their homes.
00:23:32Well, I don't have a list.
00:23:34If this is a private club,
00:23:35you must have a list of the members and their homes.
00:23:37Well, go and get them.
00:23:39And, uh, you, my dear Mr. Gray,
00:23:42wouldn't you like to tell me
00:23:44what you're doing in this club this evening?
00:23:47You will be kind enough to allow me to unravel this, huh?
00:23:49Of course.
00:23:50There's no doubt that you will do it, Sir John.
00:23:52But in answer to your question,
00:23:53what was I doing here during all this lurid business,
00:23:57all I can say is that the murder occurred
00:23:59while I was dining quietly with a woman.
00:24:01So?
00:24:04Don't just stand around. Do something.
00:24:08Oh, there you are, Higgins.
00:24:10Have you found any prints yet, Higgins?
00:24:14Dr. Higgins, if you please, Sir.
00:24:16You always forget that.
00:24:17So sorry.
00:24:18Didn't mean to hurt your feelings, Dr. Higgins.
00:24:20It won't happen again.
00:24:21Now, what have you uncovered?
00:24:23Sir, it's dreadful.
00:24:24The dead girl...
00:24:25The victim was one of our own agents.
00:24:27I was just about to say that, Sir.
00:24:29I was unaware at first as she was new.
00:24:31I knew because she was wearing
00:24:32the official underwear of Scotland Yard.
00:24:34Our own official underwear.
00:24:35Oh, goodness.
00:24:36Terrence, search the entire vicinity.
00:24:38Question everybody.
00:24:39Our own official underwear.
00:24:41Astounding.
00:24:50You're looking at the dumb waiter, Sir.
00:24:53I certainly am.
00:24:55Hands up.
00:24:57Ambrose, why are you here?
00:25:00I am, Sir, waiting for Sir Robert.
00:25:03I'm looking for him.
00:25:04Hmm.
00:25:05I see.
00:25:06I see.

00:25:22I see.
00:25:23I see.
00:25:24Mm-hmm.
00:25:25Ambrose, have you seen Miss Denise here?
00:25:27She's in there.
00:25:28I've hidden her from the police
00:25:30so she wouldn't be found
00:25:31in this terrible place.
00:25:33It wouldn't be right.
00:25:35That's good thinking, Ambrose.
00:25:36Here, hold this.
00:25:41Here, Greg.
00:25:42What are you up to?
00:25:45Denise.
00:25:46Denise.
00:25:47Johnny, I'm scared.
00:25:49My car's outside.
00:25:50Come, hurry.
00:25:54Jump.
00:25:55There.
00:25:56This way, down the alley.
00:26:17Honey, did you find anything?
00:26:19Oh, no.
00:26:20No.
00:26:21No.
00:26:22No.
00:26:24Did you find anything?
00:26:25Oh, pardon me.
00:26:29Haven't found a thing, sir.
00:26:31You will go through the entire club, men.
00:26:33Investigate all the rooms carefully.
00:26:35What's this?
00:26:36This chap refuses to cooperate.
00:26:38Look, you have a good, respectable businessman.
00:26:40Book him.
00:26:41We'll do, sir.
00:26:42It's the only room that's locked, sir.
00:26:45Perfect.
00:26:46Perfect.
00:26:47A wonderful opportunity for our doctor.
00:26:49All right, now, do your work.
00:26:55Attention, officers.
00:26:57When he opens the door, you will advance.
00:27:01He who shoots first lives long.
00:27:03I'll shoot.
00:27:04I'll shoot.
00:27:05I'll shoot.
00:27:06I'll shoot.
00:27:07I'll shoot.
00:27:08I'll shoot.
00:27:09I'll shoot.
00:27:10I'll shoot.
00:27:11He who shoots first lives longest.
00:27:24Something you want?
00:27:26Perhaps when you're not on official business.
00:27:32Sir.
00:27:41Sir.
00:28:00Stand where you are.
00:28:03It's you.
00:28:04Gray.
00:28:06What are you doing here?
00:28:07Don't worry.
00:28:08I've passed the night in the adjoining room.
00:28:10You asked me to keep an eye on your daughter.
00:28:12That's why I'm here.
00:28:14He's been a perfect gentleman, father.
00:28:16You go back to sleep, Denise.
00:28:17I'm going to have a little talk with Mr. Gray for a moment.
00:28:20Come with me.
00:28:31I'm sorry, but circumstances force me to dismiss you, Mr. Gray.
00:28:36If you'll come with me to the library.
00:28:38I'll give you a check.
00:28:39Very interesting.
00:28:40I take it then that your daughter will be out of trouble from now on.
00:28:44Sir Robert.
00:28:46If you wish to put it that way, yes.
00:28:48I understand.
00:28:50Mr. Joe Legg has gotten to you.
00:28:53Come to the library.
00:29:00Won't you try to get some sleep?
00:29:09No.
00:29:25I...
00:29:27I suppose you overheard our little talk.
00:29:31Well, I'll be back.
00:29:32Oh, but Johnny.
00:29:35You're not going to just leave?
00:29:38I'm going to Scotland Yard.
00:29:41Why are you so edgy, Denise?
00:29:48Steady there.
00:29:50I'll protect you.
00:29:53Bye now.
00:30:08Oh.
00:30:24Well, Ambrose.
00:30:29You made it home.
00:30:30Yes, Mr. Gray.
00:30:32I'd like to ask you something, my friend.
00:30:35Whose portrait is that hanging in Denise's bedroom?
00:30:38In the gold frame?
00:30:40It is Lady Marnie.
00:30:42Died 20 years ago.
00:30:46Of what?
00:30:49How did Lady Marnie die, Ambrose?
00:30:57You are wanted in the library, sir.
00:31:02You will convey to Sir Robert that it's my thought
00:31:05to complete my work as soon as possible.
00:31:08Is that understood?
00:31:30Denise.
00:31:32Johnny is fired.
00:31:33Johnny is fired?
00:31:35Why, father?
00:31:37It was necessary, Denise.
00:31:39But you don't have to be frightened anymore.
00:31:41You'll be safe from now on.
00:31:43Father, tell me what happened last night.
00:31:46Denise, please.
00:31:47It can't be true that you've made an agreement with this gangster.
00:31:51With what gangster?
00:31:52What are you talking about, my child?
00:31:54I'm not an infant, father.
00:31:57I want to know what's bothering you.
00:31:59Why was that man here yesterday?
00:32:01Why did you meet him at his cabaret?
00:32:03He's bothering you.
00:32:05And you won't tell me why.
00:32:10A foolish mistake.
00:32:12Which I shouldn't have done.
00:32:14It happened 20 years ago.
00:32:17I wanted to avoid a scandal.
00:32:19Election was at hand.
00:32:21House of Commons.
00:32:22He won't be able to put you in prison.
00:32:24No, no.
00:32:25Not to prison.
00:32:26But he might ruin me socially and politically.
00:32:30Denise, where are you going?
00:32:33Something must be done to help you.
00:32:35I must...
00:32:36Denise.
00:32:39You can't fool us with your lies.
00:32:42Here it says, it was your prints on the murder weapon.
00:32:46But sir, I tell you I'm innocent.
00:32:48I just picked up that razor accidentally.
00:32:50Johnny Gray can prove I had nothing to do with it.
00:32:52You're going to hang, Iggy.
00:32:54And I'm going to watch you swing.
00:32:56Johnny Gray has disappeared.
00:32:58He can't be found.
00:33:00He probably found out you were going to use him.
00:33:01Enter.
00:33:03Good morning.
00:33:04Oh no, Gray.
00:33:06Mr. Gray.
00:33:08I thought I heard someone mention my name.
00:33:11Well, this is extraordinary.
00:33:13Unbelievable.
00:33:15Why is that, sir John?
00:33:17I just dropped by to explain why I disappeared last night.
00:33:19Tell me.
00:33:21Could you tell the chief that I didn't do the murder, Gray?
00:33:23I really hate to admit it, but he didn't commit the murder.
00:33:27Quiet, you.
00:33:29Come.
00:33:31Tell me what you know that I don't know.
00:33:33You know something, Gray.
00:33:35Talk.
00:33:37Sir John, I must examine the weapon.
00:33:39Yes, I was right.
00:33:41Come, we go to Higgins.
00:33:44What about me?
00:33:46Hey, what about me?
00:33:48Throw him out.
00:33:50Then open all the windows wide.
00:33:52Watch it.
00:33:54I hate to do this to you, my beautiful Emily,
00:33:56but there must be some sacrifices made.
00:33:57For the progress of mankind.
00:33:59Ah, that's hot enough.
00:34:01Everything ready.
00:34:03It is time then.
00:34:06Uh-oh.
00:34:08What kind of a Frankenstein have you created here?
00:34:11Please, sir, if you will lie flat on the floor there,
00:34:13right where you are is fine.
00:34:15Just a precaution.
00:34:22Oh, it's perfect.
00:34:24Wonderful.
00:34:25It turned out much better than expected.
00:34:27Emily, can you ever forgive me?
00:34:29There you are, Emily.
00:34:31Thank you so much.
00:34:35His mind is brilliant if he has one.
00:34:42I would, however,
00:34:44like to recommend that in the future
00:34:46you have your explosions without me.
00:34:48Forgive me.
00:34:50But of course.
00:34:52Are you injured, sir?
00:34:53I'm not sure.
00:34:55I've got it.
00:34:57What?
00:34:58The experiment was a success.
00:34:59Which?
00:35:01Sulfur potassium concentrate
00:35:03plus phenol dimethyl pyrazolone
00:35:05creates an explosive reaction.
00:35:07The murder of Devonshire has been solved.
00:35:09What did you say?
00:35:11The Devonshire murder has been solved?
00:35:13Quite so, sir.
00:35:15This little piece of phenol dimethyl pyrazolone
00:35:17has been attached by the murderer to the lamp
00:35:19and when his wife came in the room
00:35:21and turned on the lamp,
00:35:23it was gone, sir.
00:35:25My goodness, sir.
00:35:27What have you found, Gray, huh?
00:35:29Just what I've been looking for.
00:35:31What's that?
00:35:33Take a look, Sir John.
00:35:35R and M.
00:35:37R and M?
00:35:39R and M.
00:35:41And at the latest report,
00:35:43the prime suspect for the murder
00:35:45of the striptease girl
00:35:47at the notorious Hilo Club in Soho
00:35:49is now Joe Iggy.
00:35:51His age is 34.
00:35:53He talks on that bloody idiot.
00:35:55How can this happen?
00:35:57We're about to pull the biggest job
00:35:59in the entire history of England
00:36:01and he gets involved with Scotland Yard.
00:36:03I'm warning you,
00:36:05that little runt will talk if they push him
00:36:07and he knows everything about our plans.
00:36:09I know, but he'll be shot
00:36:11before he opens his mouth.
00:36:13He'll still be in the interrogation room.
00:36:15Perhaps we could...
00:36:17And what if he's already talked?
00:36:19It must be Blackstone.
00:36:21Open up the door.
00:36:23How are you?
00:36:25Surprised to see Iggy back in circulation?
00:36:27About that, huh?
00:36:29Yes, Sir.
00:36:31Old Iggy's back in town.
00:36:35What's the matter?
00:36:37How did you get out?
00:36:39The newspapers say that you were...
00:36:41Testimony?
00:36:43Excellent witnesses.
00:36:45The solid citizen kind.
00:36:47Johnny Gray, for example.
00:36:49What do you think of that?
00:36:51Are we going to believe Iggy?
00:36:53You think he can protect us?
00:36:55Why, you...
00:36:57Let go of me!
00:36:59Leave him.
00:37:01I'll trust Iggy.
00:37:03As long as we can't prove he's lying,
00:37:05we'll believe him.
00:37:23Old Iggy.
00:37:47Here he comes now.
00:37:49We've become fast friends.

00:45:27First the woman by the railroad passing then the dancer Wanda and this afternoon
00:45:31Another in the high low. I don't understand. What are you withholding money?

00:46:09You have big ears Ambrose you speak very loud, sir
00:46:13Tell me did you lose this razor? Well, if sir, Robert said so, what do you mean? If sir, Robert says so
00:46:18That's no answer. You have to tell me where Ambrose. I really don't know
00:46:23One day it was just misplaced. I
00:46:26Couldn't find it, sir
00:46:33One more question
00:46:36Lady Marnie died 20 years ago in this house
00:46:40Didn't it happen with the razor lady Marnie we're speaking of murder
00:46:45Lady Marnie killed herself. Yes, I know
00:46:49I've been told that I suppose you're the one who found her after this suicide and
00:46:55I suppose sir Robert

00:46:59Yes
00:47:01the police were if
00:47:03You mean that?
00:47:05much in the dark

00:54:02are you joking you make us all rush over to that high low club to catch a murderer and
00:54:08Nothing at all happened
00:54:10You found nothing, right? Oh
00:54:14Denny saw it. Wait, I'll call her
00:54:28The Marnie man, huh?
00:54:30the butler
00:54:32Mr. Gray, you're right. Of course. I'm alive. Hope that isn't disappointing Ambrose
00:54:40What a
00:54:42policeman in uniform you say
00:54:44Yes, I'll call back
00:54:45Denise has been kidnapped. Yes, Joe leg
00:54:49But why her?
00:54:52Could be because she knows about the murder at the high low
00:54:56Of course, she saw the whole thing the same reason they took a shot at me
00:54:59Higgins a body just doesn't disappear. They've got it hidden somewhere at the high low and they've hidden Denise there, too
00:55:04You've got to help me get her out. But Johnny you simply don't ignore a golf championship invitation. You're staying with me
00:55:09You're just the man to find her
00:55:11There must be a way of finding out what she might be hidden and you might use all this technical equipment and with it
00:55:16You could find her for me my god, man
00:55:19What do I have to say to you to convince you that you're the only man who can do it?
00:55:22We got Colin Scotland Yard and all that red tape you and I have to do it
00:55:26Do you realize what you're asking of me? You're asking me to lose my pension. That's what I'm besides what sir. John would say
00:55:32No, wait, wait a moment. I
00:55:36Just had a thought I think yes, I think it could be the right time to try my best
00:55:40You're what my invention the most bulletproof vest in the world. Shoot here. You rats shoot here. You can't murder old Higgins
00:55:47Here's my chest shoot. It's great Higgie great now gather up some more of your gadgets

01:14:29I'm all right
01:14:32I'm terribly sorry. I just don't understand which bank robbery. What do you mean?
01:14:36I'm trying to point out to you that this is a problem of being associated with underworld criminals
01:14:41You see I'm always being suspected when some hoodlums
01:14:45Terrible. Thank you. I knew you'd understand
01:14:47So I just thought it would be nicer if I were with you and you kept an eye on me tonight cigarette
01:14:51No in my position. I simply can't afford to stay under suspicion
01:14:56It's much too risky. No, it'd be tragic
01:14:59All I can tell you is this something is going to happen tonight and it concerns a train doing at the Paddington Depot
01:15:06by exactly
01:15:08358 this morning. Mr. Legg. This is quite embarrassing
01:15:12Look now Joe leg giving the police tips
01:15:17It really is embarrassing. Well, then let's go have a look at the timetable and find out which train is coming at 358 coming
01:15:28You can't get away with it central office will be calling to find out what's up
01:15:32Now
01:15:35You tell them that an axle overheated
01:15:38Say it'll be fixed in five minutes
01:15:40Switch house Philip speaking. Yes. No, everything is all right
01:15:46Just an axle got overheated it'll be repaired in a moment. Yes, very well I
01:15:54Not one not one at all there is no train which arrives at 358
01:16:01Therefore I should arrest you for giving false information. Then there must be a train which is not not on the timetable
01:16:08For instance a freight train. Sure. Maybe the circus train is coming. Oh
01:16:13You're kidding me. But may I remind you the time is exactly
01:16:17331 yes. Thank you. I wouldn't have noticed myself
01:16:20How kind of you mr. Legg

01:17:01Everything all right. Sure. Everything's fine
01:17:24What's happening come out and axles overheated fire

01:20:59Cut him up into millions of little pieces
01:21:13If that's him again, I'll
01:21:19I'm sleeping just wonderful. Sir. John. I only hope I haven't ruined your sleep
01:21:25However, do you want your scientific friend Higgins to solve this crime all alone?
01:21:28Well, if not, you better get right over to money castle. You'll find us there
01:21:50Three million pounds money
01:21:52Pretty soon every Scotland Yarder in Britain will be looking high and low for that booty. They're not in your basement
01:21:58No, not down there and you're going to keep your mouth shut
01:22:22I
01:22:52I
01:23:11What is this
01:23:13I
01:23:21It's Johnny Gray
01:23:28What was that you've called the police for you
01:23:44Remember Lady Marnie
01:24:08One and three and three and go
01:24:14Oh
01:24:30I'm not dead after all. It's a complete success now have my bulletproof vest certified by the yard. Thank you. Thank you
01:24:38Grazia old Higgies best are the best
01:24:40That where you are all of you
01:25:10I
01:25:24Should say this is the first time in the history of Scotland Yard that we solved the case first and had all the money accounted
01:25:30For before the public knew that the robbery had been committed sir. Yes
01:25:37Caught this one running away. Ah
01:25:41I should have known. Uh-uh. I wasn't any part of this Johnny Gray will tell you and sir. I found this on him
01:25:46I only had it to keep the murderer from using it again
01:26:06Ambrose won't you tell me the truth now?
01:26:10I
01:26:13Was sir Robert blackmailed by leg what did happen 20 years ago?
01:26:18Lady
01:26:20money
01:26:21at that time
01:26:23She was Joe legs mistress and then when the police were about to get him for robbery
01:26:28He threatened to tell the newspapers to avoid a scandal. Sir. Robert helped leg get out of the country right damn gross
01:26:37Yes
01:26:40It's like
01:27:10I found out about it when I talked to the Marnie's family doctor
01:27:16Denise was a mere five years old when she saw her mother who was insane then committing suicide with a straight razor
01:27:24She sat for hours by her mother's body
01:27:28She just sat and watched what she suffered from that whole ghastly scene has affected her whole life
01:27:35To be certain I left her alone here last night with that mannequin
01:27:40and a razor
01:27:41She mistook the doll for a sleeping woman
01:27:44She reacted precisely as before
01:27:47Denise was insane. She'd murder women. She couldn't stop herself. She'd murder any woman
01:27:52It didn't matter who the woman was until finally she became her own target
01:27:57Exactly like her mother 20 years ago
01:28:02Emily
01:28:03Emily, what are you doing in this place?
01:28:06Emily oh my poor dear Emily now Higgins Emily. Tell me what professor
01:28:13Professor yes, I said professor your appointment is official this moment
01:28:19Professor. Mm-hmm. Oh
01:28:22Why couldn't you share this proud moment with me? Maybe there's still time a taxi a taxi
01:28:26I must hurry to the doll clinic. Maybe a specialist of throat diseases can still save her
01:28:35You
01:29:05You
