00:01:30yes
00:01:35my lady the dr. Emerson
00:01:41Come, King.
00:01:55King, sit down.
00:02:01Coming a bit late, aren't you, doctor?
00:02:04Where is he?
00:02:06Lebanon works in the library at this time.
00:02:12Quiet, King.
00:02:14Come.
00:02:41Yes, Lord Lebanon here.
00:03:01Hello.
00:03:03Hello, this is Lord Lebanon speaking.
00:03:07But why don't you say something, for God's sake?
00:03:10Hello.
00:03:11Look here, my good friend, if this is a practical joke...
00:03:21Just one moment, please. I'll connect you right away.
00:03:24Hello.
00:03:26This is Edgar Wallace speaking.

00:05:06And so, I have the honour to be addressing you at this difficult time as lawyer of our dear departed Lord Francis Percival Lebanon.
00:05:12And so, I have the honour to be addressing you at this difficult time as lawyer of our dear departed Lord Francis Percival Lebanon.
00:05:19He has left me the task of reading His Testament to you all.
00:05:24As lawyer of our dear departed Lord Francis Percival Lebanon.
00:05:28He has left me the task of reading his testament to you all.
00:05:46My next to last will.
00:05:49What was that?
00:05:51What sort of will?
00:05:52Are you being funny?
00:05:54This is a serious matter.
00:05:55If we come here from all corners of the world to be victimized by his crazy sense of humor.
00:06:00We have a right to be told.
00:06:01My dear ones.
00:06:03When you hear the following words, I shall have disappeared as the 28th Lord of Lebanon
00:06:08and gone to join our forebears.
00:06:11I trust my demise took place as I might have wished for myself quickly
00:06:15unexpectedly and without unnecessary complications.
00:06:19May I interrupt this witty exordium to inquire how it was that my dearly beloved cousin died?
00:06:24Heart failure.
00:06:25Third attack.
00:06:26I was there for the autopsy as luck would have it.
00:06:29Yes, yes.
00:06:30Please go on reading.
00:06:31Just a second.
00:06:32I have a question I'd like to put.
00:06:33It happens to be my inheritance.
00:06:34Don't interrupt.
00:06:35What is the exact sum at stake here for the heirs?
00:06:38What can each one expect?
00:06:39Mr. Tilly.
00:06:40This is really a family affair.
00:06:43You're only an in-law and not related by blood.
00:06:45And to our shame you are American as well.
00:06:48I'm speaking for my wife, a genuine Lebanon Craig, if that's all right.
00:06:52And as long as this Peter Ross is present who is nothing but an illegitimate son of the dead man
00:06:56and as long as Miss Isla Harris sits here,
00:06:58though she has only the feeblest connection with this family,
00:07:01then I have as much right here as anyone.
00:07:03Now, listen.
00:07:09You might say something.
00:07:11Shut up.
00:07:12May I, to clarify the situation, merely point out that the total property amounts to some half million pounds
00:07:17and that that converts to roughly a million and a half dollars.
00:07:23My life has always been marred by one great disappointment.
00:07:27Disappointment in you all for having destroyed a great and illustrious family
00:07:31by the venomous strife that has divided you for all these years.
00:07:35As of today, this situation will change.
00:07:39For this purpose, I bequeath to each of you a substantial portion of my possessions on one condition.
00:07:46That you will all remain under this roof for six days and six nights in peace and harmony,
00:07:52awaiting the opening of my last will and testament.
00:07:56Mr. Tanner, to whom I gave a sealed copy of the will,
00:07:59is instructed by me to supervise the execution of these conditions.
00:08:04Let the spirit of our ancient and venerable family inspire all of you with peace and harmony
00:08:10and link your hearts in all true faith, hope, and charity.
00:08:16Six days and six nights.
00:08:18Especially the nights.
00:08:20I can't leave my expedition alone that long.
00:08:22I must go back to the Amazon.
00:08:24Who will look after my flock if I fail to arrive at church as usual?
00:08:28They'll go to heaven without you, Pastor.
00:08:29Nobody is being forced to remain.
00:08:31But what would happen if we decided to leave, Mr. Tanner?
00:08:35Will my share be sent to me by any chance?
00:08:38No, it won't be sent to you.
00:08:40It'll be divided among those who remain.
00:08:43One of us could die, perhaps.
00:08:45That's a pleasant thought, but the dead aren't eligible, as like it is.
00:08:49Well, looks like we better fish or cut bait.
00:08:53Allow me to take this opportunity to welcome you, though we're a bit short of help.
00:08:57I wish you all a good evening.
00:09:04To whom does this horrid little chest belong?
00:09:11Is it yours by any chance?
00:09:13Oh, indeed not.
00:09:23Ah! A spider!
00:09:27Who was this stupid idiot who opened that box?
00:09:30That's one of the most venomous of all tropical insects.
00:09:33That's a blackbird spider.
00:09:35Its bite is fatal.
00:09:40Don't worry. Edward's here to protect you.
00:09:46Thank you, my lord.
00:09:47But I...
00:09:49We're relatives.
00:09:51Call me Edward, please.
00:09:54My dear Hockbridge, I hope you have no more such unpleasant surprises.
00:09:57I fear he does, my lady. Sir Hockbridge has a bird.
00:10:00But Bonwit...
00:10:01A bird, my lady, and a bird who is, if you will permit me to say, a most scurrilous creature.
00:10:06You mean precious or rarity from the Amazon?
00:10:08I believe you, sir.
00:10:09But he speaks perfect English to me.
00:10:11And in my considered opinion, his mouth should be washed out with strong soap.
00:10:14Please, Bonwit. I think our guests are ready for bed. Isn't that so?
00:10:17Edward, come along.
00:10:18Come, Isla.
00:10:20Would you be so kind as to follow me, please?
00:10:22But before I go to bed, I must wish all my dear relatives a very good night.
00:10:27Quite in the spirit of our dear deceased, I retire for the night in peace and serenity.
00:10:38What the devil's gone wrong now?
00:10:42Don't be alarmed. Evidently a utility pole was hit.
00:10:51Hello?
00:10:53Hello?
00:10:56Hello?
00:11:00My dear sirs, the telephone appears to be out of order, and since electrical skill is not in my repertoire,
00:11:04our communications are severed for a while.
00:11:06A tree must have fallen across the cable. That storm means business.
00:11:10The damage caused by the storm prevailing on the west coast of Scotland is now assuming the proportions of a national calamity.
00:11:16Several shipwrecks have been announced.
00:11:18Off Scrabster, the dike has been broken along a stretch of two miles.
00:11:21The whole peninsula is now cut off from the mainland.
00:11:25Further information will follow.
00:11:28Well, I guess that's us, friends.
00:11:31I better do what I can to repair the lamps here.
00:11:34In addition, I must announce that food will be rationed, particularly mustard, which is in short supply.
00:11:39The whole situation is absurd.
00:11:43Well, what do you think, Edward?
00:11:45What do you think of this mock testament?
00:11:48How could Papa do that to us?
00:11:51Old age gives people weird fantasies.
00:11:54He spoke a lot recently about his family.
00:11:56Family.
00:11:58Hyenas is what they are.
00:12:01They have no right to it whatsoever.
00:12:02It's your property to think we may even be deprived of the castle.
00:12:06Edward, we must fight this will.
00:12:09We will fight it together to our last breath.
00:12:11Mama, in two weeks' time I give my first concert in London.
00:12:15How can you expect me to be concerned about this inheritance of mine?
00:12:18No, of course, my precious.
00:12:22You are not to worry.
00:12:24I'll watch over you, my dear.
00:12:27I'll fight for you against them all.
00:12:32I'll be back.
00:12:56Oh good heavens, good heavens, good heavens!
00:12:59Oh my goodness!
00:13:02Oh, dear, dear. Oh, my, my.
00:13:16But who are you? What do you want?
00:13:20Nothing. It's raining. It's raining.
00:13:25I'm Chico.
00:13:39What kind of a name is that?
00:13:42Chico. Why, you nearly frightened me out of my wits.
00:13:47I suppose I need a little drink.
00:13:58It was quite a scare after all.
00:14:06Ah, a nice old Cadillac to brace me up.
00:14:18Oh, dear.
00:14:22Oh, dear.
00:14:44But, Bonwit, what's the meaning of this?
00:14:47The current Hastings won't be having any breakfast.
00:14:49Oh, isn't he feeling well?
00:14:51I'm quite incapable of replying. He is dead.
00:14:57What did you say?
00:14:58He's been quite choked to death, I fear.
00:15:01If you would care to certify the manner of death, he's in the Blue Salon, at home to you all.
00:15:05Dr. Amsham, come with me.
00:15:10Edward. Yes, Mama.
00:15:11Did you hear that Uncle Lionel is dead?
00:15:14Do you think the members of the Royal House will come to my concert, Mother?
00:15:17Edward, sometimes I'm so worried for you.
00:15:21What sort of world are you living in, darling?
00:15:24In my own, Mama.
00:15:25Yes.
00:15:29Tell me, Bonwit, at ten o'clock...
00:15:38...when you took around the candlesticks to every room, was the Reverend Hastings still alive?
00:15:44Yes. As I left, he made the sign of the cross before me.
00:15:48When you took around the candlesticks to every room, was the Reverend Hastings still alive?
00:15:53Yes. As I left, he made the sign of the cross before me.
00:15:57Why did he do that?
00:15:58Very likely...
00:16:00...because he didn't have a tip handy.
00:16:02What an awful thing to say.
00:16:04My dear friends, this much is evident.
00:16:07That a murder has been committed in a very cruel and effective way.
00:16:10What did you say? A murder?
00:16:11Yes, that's exactly it.
00:16:14Yes, that's exactly it.
00:16:15And as we are unable to contact the authorities, we must solve the case for ourselves.
00:16:20I'm not a plainclothesman by any means, but if you all agree, I'll be glad to offer my service.
00:16:26Yes, yes, okay, okay. The main point is for it to be no one who might gain by the investigation.
00:16:30No one's asked your advice.
00:16:31Right.
00:16:32That's certainly the best solution, in all respects, I think.
00:16:36Thank you for your confidence, my lady.
00:16:38And now I would like to put some further questions to Bonwit.
00:16:40I'd be greatly obliged if you'd all wait in the dining room.
00:16:42If you don't mind.
00:16:43Of course.
00:16:45I hope it won't take too long.
00:16:53Tell me, Bonwit, have you at any point...
00:16:57What are we going to do with him?
00:16:59I would suggest transporting him to the chapel.
00:17:02It's very tranquil there, sir.
00:17:04And the view is glorious.
00:17:06Awful, isn't it, to think that there could be a murder among us.
00:17:12You can be a lot more exact, my dear.
00:17:15He's certainly one of us.
00:17:17It's awful, of course, but remember, each of us gets 20,000 more.
00:17:20That's a consolation, isn't it?
00:17:21I forbid you to talk like that, Mr. Tilly.
00:17:24Well, my friends, now we can get down to brass tacks.
00:17:28Has anybody ever seen this scarf before?
00:17:33No.
00:17:34Not that I know of, Tanner.
00:17:37And what do you say, Dr. Amersham?
00:17:39Me?
00:17:40No.
00:17:41Why me?
00:17:45That goes for all of you.
00:17:47Good.
00:17:50Was anybody up after 10 o'clock?
00:17:53And did you hear anything which might help us any?
00:17:56I didn't hear, but I saw.
00:17:57Saw what?
00:17:58A man.
00:18:00Uh-huh.
00:18:01And?
00:18:02Nothing.
00:18:03I saw him go into the reverend's room.
00:18:05Naturally, you were unable to see who the man was.
00:18:07I was able to see exactly who the man was.
00:18:09And who was it?
00:18:14Mr. Tilling.
00:18:15That is a damned lie!
00:18:17I never left my room all night.
00:18:19Oh.
00:18:21My husband left his room very soon after 10 o'clock.
00:18:24He didn't return for a long time.
00:18:25Lucy!
00:18:26Don't believe her.
00:18:27She's a pathological liar.
00:18:28You're in a position to know.
00:18:30Mr. Tilling.
00:18:31Correct me if I am wrong.
00:18:32That is the suit you were wearing yesterday.
00:18:33What?
00:18:35Well, naturally.
00:18:36I'm not a fashion model.
00:18:38There's a button off your jacket.
00:18:41Sew what?
00:18:42If a button's off.
00:18:43It's been off for ages.
00:18:44She won't sew buttons, she says.
00:18:46She couldn't have sewn this button.
00:18:50Because I have it here.
00:18:51Have you any idea where it turned up?
00:18:54Beside the reverend's bed.
00:18:55No.
00:18:56No.
00:18:57No.
00:18:58No.
00:18:59Beside the reverend's bed.
00:19:07All right.
00:19:10I went to his room.
00:19:12I admit it.
00:19:15I wanted to talk about my wife.
00:19:19She's after me.
00:19:21Because she wants a divorce.
00:19:24But I never reached that point.
00:19:27I found him dead.
00:19:29Can you prove that?
00:19:32I don't need to.
00:19:33Can you disprove it?
00:19:35There, Mr. Tilling, you are asking too much of me.
00:19:38I collect the material, but the rest is considered police work.
00:19:43Bonwit.
00:19:54Now, ladies and gentlemen, come this way.
00:19:56I would like to introduce you.
00:19:57This is Chico.
00:19:58Cook, valet and chauffeur.
00:19:59All in one person.
00:20:00Chico, you told me you'd seen one of these guests three weeks ago.
00:20:04Visiting the castle.
00:20:06You managed to recall the exact day it was.
00:20:09The 18th of June, I believe.
00:20:11Yes, sir.
00:20:13Is that person one of us here?
00:20:16Yes.
00:20:17There.
00:20:20Chico, how does it happen that you can recall the date so precisely?
00:20:25Because the following day his lordship was murdered.
00:20:28Thanks, Chico. That's enough.
00:20:29You may go.
00:20:36You infer I'm the murderer of Lord Lebanon from that?
00:20:39You had several motives.
00:20:41Your wife would inherit more, and you would no doubt get rid of your debts.
00:20:45I remember the 18th of June.
00:20:46My husband went for a few days to Birmingham on business.
00:20:49I never believed in that trip.
00:20:51There's no love lost between you two, is there?
00:20:54Mrs. Tilling.
00:20:56No.
00:20:58That seems very natural.
00:21:00You.
00:21:02I'm warning you.
00:21:04I'm warning you, Lucy.
00:21:07Of course I only belong to the family.
00:21:10Because his lordship saw fit to seduce my mother.
00:21:14But I suggest we relegate Mr. Tilling to his room.
00:21:29Proletarian.
00:21:33Gentlemen.
00:21:35I must insist on manners.
00:21:45Listen to me now, all of you.
00:21:48I'm a free native-born American.
00:21:51Whoever lays a hand on me regrets it.
00:21:54I don't care to be made an exhibition of...
00:21:56by my own wife.
00:21:58Yes.
00:21:59I hate you.
00:22:00I've always hated you.
00:22:01From the beginning.
00:22:03Your fat face, your hands, your odor.
00:22:06When you touched me, you made my flesh creep.
00:22:09If I ever recover, it will only be when you're hanged.
00:22:11So.
00:22:12So that's it.
00:22:13Really.
00:22:14You hate me.
00:22:15But you could stand the money, all right.
00:22:17Stand it.
00:22:18You came running.
00:22:19You were poor.
00:22:20In those days, poor.
00:22:22Not much butter on your bread when I met you.
00:22:24Not much butter on your bread when I met you.
00:22:26Yeah.
00:22:27I was good enough for you then.
00:22:30I know I'm vulgar.
00:22:31I've worked my way up, but I'm honest.
00:22:33At least I say what I think.
00:22:35And you.
00:22:36You won't believe me.
00:22:38Yeah.
00:22:39But I worshipped you.
00:22:41Now that I've had a bit of bad luck.
00:22:42And you're gonna inherit some money.
00:22:44Now it's very handy to remember how you hate.
00:22:46Now old Tilling gets a kick in the rear, right?
00:22:54But I'm warning you.
00:22:56You may go too far.
00:22:58Things are going to change.
00:23:01I guarantee that.
00:23:05Matter.
00:23:25Who is it?
00:23:26It's me.
00:23:27Tanner.
00:23:33You arrive on cue, Mr. Tanner.
00:23:35Are you psychic?
00:23:36No.
00:23:38But I have fine hearing.
00:23:40Yes.
00:23:41We were pretty vocal, I admit.
00:23:43Can I help you in some way?
00:23:44Yes.
00:23:45Lots of ways.
00:23:46Well, firstly.
00:23:47Have you ever been in a car accident?
00:23:49No.
00:23:50I've never been in a car accident.
00:23:52Lots of ways.
00:23:53Well, firstly.
00:23:54Have you a light by any chance?
00:23:55Oh, I'm sorry.
00:23:56How careless of me.
00:23:57Here you are.
00:24:00And secondly?
00:24:01Secondly.
00:24:02Oh, yes.
00:24:03You handle divorce cases, I believe, don't you?
00:24:05Yes.
00:24:06When it can't be helped.
00:24:07It can't be.
00:24:10I have a feeling we'll see each other frequently, Mr. Tanner.
00:24:13It would be an honor, Mrs. Tilling.
00:24:16Only an honor.
00:24:18And of course.
00:24:19A pleasure.
00:24:21We'll speak further about this soon.
00:24:23If you like.
00:24:24Well, then.
00:24:25Good night.
00:24:26And, uh...
00:24:28Don't catch cold.
00:24:29You're sweet to be so concerned.
00:24:30Ciao.
00:24:50Ciao.
00:24:51Ciao.
00:25:20Oh, my God!
00:25:51Morning.
00:26:09All right.
00:26:10What's the matter now, Tanner?
00:26:13What are you fools gaping at?
00:26:15I didn't knock off the old goat, I tell you.
00:26:17Did you happen to knock off your wife then, Mr. Tilling?
00:26:21My wife?
00:26:22Look, you can stop playing around.
00:26:25This morning your wife was found dead.
00:26:28Murdered.
00:26:29By you, Mr. Tilling.
00:26:30The selfsame way in which the Reverend Hastings happened to be found murdered.
00:26:34Are you all out of your minds?
00:26:38What motive would make me kill my wife?
00:26:39Motive?
00:26:44I'll be glad to clarify the point.
00:26:45First, your wife destroyed your alibi.
00:26:47Thus putting you in a difficult situation as regards the murder of Hastings.
00:26:51Second, you murdered her because the dead can't be legatees.
00:26:55Thirdly, she was very keen on a divorce that would have ruined you.
00:26:58And that is why, Mr. Tilling...
00:27:00Let go!
00:27:01Let go, I say!
00:27:03This is all nonsense!
00:27:12Huh?
00:27:16Stop!
00:27:18Stay away from there or I'll shoot.
00:27:20I see through you.
00:27:22I see through the whole thing.
00:27:25I'm an American, so you pick on me.
00:27:33But you won't get away with it.
00:27:35Not even if I have to use this thing.
00:27:38Is that clear?
00:27:40Chico.
00:27:43Leave him alone.
00:27:44You're very courageous, Mr. Tanner, but to no avail.
00:27:48There's been no ammunition kept in the house since the 15th Lord of Lebanon...
00:27:51...took a pot shot at his wife's lover at tea time.
00:27:54Broke the poor lady's heart, they say.
00:27:57Apropos of shooting people, Mr. Tanner...
00:27:59...a murderer is eligible as is.
00:28:01Shame on you, Huckbridge.
00:28:03We have a murderer among us and all you can think about is money.
00:28:06Well, it's quite important.
00:28:08What I wish to know is...
00:28:09...if Tilling and his wife own their property in common, what will happen?
00:28:12Tilling will inherit.
00:28:13And if he's condemned?
00:28:15It goes to his children.
00:28:16That's poetic justice for you.
00:28:18Ladies and gentlemen, may I ask you to return to your rooms while I try to reason with...
00:28:22...our ill-tempered friend upstairs and get a clear story.
00:28:28Isla.
00:28:43Come on.
00:28:56Mr. Tilling, I must speak to you.
00:28:58Yeah, sure you do.
00:29:00Better look out or I'll put a hole in your belly.
00:29:03Don't talk nonsense.
00:29:05You're out of your mind, Tilling.
00:29:06Aren't two murders enough?
00:29:08Be sensible and let me in there or else.
00:29:12Come on.
00:29:19Please come in, sir.
00:29:23What happened?
00:29:24Chico was a world champion wrestler before he joined us.
00:29:27Although the activity rather bruised his intelligence, it has to be admitted that...
00:29:31...occasionally it comes in very handy.
00:29:34Shut up.
00:29:37Very sorry.
00:29:39What do we do with him?
00:29:40Well, the chapel's been reserved for our newly deads.
00:29:43But we might lock him up in the dungeon of the castle.
00:29:46Yeah.
00:29:47Not a bad idea.
00:29:49Tell me, Barnwood, how are you able to break in here in the first place?
00:29:52Won't you have a look over here?
00:29:54Huh?
00:29:57Through the secret passage.
00:29:59It was used in the Middle Ages so lovers could meet without being unduly disturbed.
00:30:05A version of the Dolce Vita, if you'll permit me an instant of levity.
00:30:15Must have been a lot of traffic through here, eh Barnwood?
00:30:19Let's have a look at it, huh?
00:30:22I'll just give you this, sir, if I may.
00:31:35How am I supposed to work in this atmosphere?
00:31:37Do you mind telling me?
00:31:39It will all be over in a few days.
00:31:41The police will come and arrest this loathsome foreign fool.
00:31:45And then...
00:31:47...they'll leave us alone.
00:31:48I promise.
00:31:51How was it you never told me of Papa's two heart attacks?
00:31:57I don't know.
00:31:59I don't know.
00:32:00Were Papa's two heart attacks?
00:32:06I wanted to spare you the worry.
00:32:10And then I'd been...
00:32:12I'd been told they weren't very serious.
00:32:15Were Papa's heart attacks the cause of his death, Mother?
00:32:19Robert Edward.
00:32:23You yourself heard what Dr. Amersham said to us.
00:32:26I don't believe him.
00:32:27Never believed him.
00:32:30Even back in India.
00:32:52It's not that simple.
00:32:53I can't do it.
00:32:54Oh, by the way, it's the same pattern, isn't it?
00:32:56Quite so, sir.
00:32:57Nervous?
00:32:58Quite so, sir.
00:32:59I found it in the cupboard.
00:33:00Here's the breakfast for your bird, sir.
00:33:03Thank you. Set it over there.
00:33:04Quite so, sir.
00:33:09Murder! Murder!
00:33:12Murder!
00:33:17Hmm.
00:33:18You won't tell, will you?
00:33:24My lady.
00:33:45My lady.
00:33:46My dear friends.
00:33:47Exactly 500 years ago,
00:33:49Philip became the founder of our family.
00:33:51In commemoration of this auspicious event,
00:33:53I have prepared a little surprise for you.
00:33:55I'm dying to see what.
00:33:57I've brought back some exceedingly interesting and instructive photos of our expedition.
00:34:00Very thoughtful of you.
00:34:01Thank you. Thank you very much.
00:34:03Now, will you please be seated?
00:34:04Gladly.
00:34:07Kindly forgive me, but I haven't time for this sort of thing.
00:34:09Take your seats, please.
00:34:14Bonwit.
00:34:15First, I have for you a picture that's never before been seen
00:34:18of the most dangerous animal in the world.
00:34:20Our war minister, who participated in the expedition,
00:34:23succeeded in taking this photo at the risk of his very life.
00:34:32What is it?
00:34:33What's wrong?
00:34:34Oh, heavens to Betsy.
00:34:36That's the wrong set.
00:34:39Excuse me, won't you?
00:34:42There, that's more like it.
00:34:43The Amazonian jaguar.
00:34:45Savage and bloodthirsty.
00:34:47And it kills not for food, but out of a lust to kill.
00:35:08Please don't bother, Amersham.
00:35:11The witness' statements are kept at my bank.
00:35:14Emily, why don't you give me the papers?
00:35:16Are you determined to have me ruined?
00:35:18No.
00:35:19No more than my husband,
00:35:21who obtained their silence in return for a lot of money.
00:35:25Hard labor is the reward of allowing a high government official
00:35:28to steal a whole ship's cargo of medical supplies.
00:35:31You were an accessory.
00:35:32You're threatening me with common blackmail.
00:35:35There's a penalty for that, too.
00:35:36Why, how you talk.
00:35:38Haven't I paid for that error?
00:35:40Emily, who established the cause of your husband's death?
00:35:43I suppose that isn't enough.
00:35:44No.
00:35:46No?
00:35:47No.
00:35:52If I talk, what then?
00:35:55You would not be so foolish.
00:35:57You're aware why I wished the autopsy to state
00:36:00that Lord Lebanon's death had been entirely natural.
00:36:03Edward's career would have ended before it had begun.
00:36:07If it had come out his father had been the victim of a common murderer.
00:36:12That's very clear.
00:36:16And this is a catching stick
00:36:18used for hunting by the Chubi Indians,
00:36:20who live at the source of the Amazon River.
00:36:22They hunt tapirs with them.
00:36:24Quite a sure thing.
00:36:25I'm sure of it.
00:36:27I'm sure of it.
00:36:28They live at the source of the Amazon River.
00:36:29They hunt tapirs with them.
00:36:31Quite a sure stick with a scarf attached to it.
00:36:34They just make a rope out of it.
00:36:41It's very ingenious.
00:36:43That'll be all.
00:36:45Bonwit, lights, please.
00:36:47Bravo, bravo.
00:36:49Really, Sir Huckbridge, it was exceedingly interesting.
00:36:52Thank you, milady, thank you.
00:36:53Bonwit, the champagne.
00:36:55I invite you all to drink with me
00:36:57because as of today a bad chapter of our life is finished.
00:37:01A heartless murderer is awaiting his just reward.
00:37:06Milady.
00:37:07Thank you, Bonwit.
00:37:14Are you so certain, milady?
00:37:18Is tilling really the murderer?
00:37:20What Sir Huckbridge showed us is undoubtedly the murder weapon
00:37:23and it can only belong to the murderer.
00:37:27Mr. Ross, I find your remarks offensive and intemperate.
00:37:31I must remind you that your doubtful origins
00:37:34do not give you the freedom for ill-mannered behavior.
00:37:54Happy days.
00:37:56My days.
00:38:26Happy days.
00:38:47Wonderful.
00:38:57Come, kitty.
00:38:58Come to daddy.
00:39:00That's a good kitty.
00:39:02That's nice.
00:39:03I won't hurt you.
00:39:05Come on.
00:39:07That's right.
00:39:09Yes.
00:39:10You see?
00:39:11Come on.
00:39:13Come on.
00:39:14Come on.
00:39:15Come on.
00:39:16Come on.
00:39:17Come on.
00:39:18Come on.
00:39:19Come on.
00:39:20Come on.
00:39:21Come on.
00:39:22Come on.
00:39:23Come on.
00:39:24Come on.
00:39:25Come on.
00:39:28That's it.
00:39:29That's my kitty.
00:39:35That's my kitty.
00:39:56Really, Isla.
00:39:57With fine weather, it's lovely here.
00:39:59I hope you'll remember this as our guest after all this is over.
00:40:02I'm afraid, Isla, I won't have the time.
00:40:05Say you'll come see us in London and I won't let you leave.
00:40:08I promise you.
00:40:11Splendid.
00:40:12Dr. Amersham, you know this one?
00:40:14A swindler finds a ridgebanger on the train.
00:40:16The swindler says,
00:40:17I'm not going to let you go.
00:40:19I'm not going to let you go.
00:40:21I'm not going to let you go.
00:40:23I'm not going to let you go.
00:40:24The swindler says,
00:40:25I see you're headed to London.
00:40:26We can make the trip together.
00:40:27So the banger says,
00:40:30Well, yes, I planned to go,
00:40:31but now I see I can't afford the trip.
00:40:35Good.
00:40:41Very clever indeed.
00:40:43How nice.
00:40:44At last, a calm, uneventful morning.
00:40:47Thank you, my dear.
00:40:49We can only trust there'll be no more murders for the rest of our state.
00:40:52Hope the weather will improve soon.
00:40:55Where's Mr. Tanner?
00:41:02Morning.
00:41:04Kindly excuse me for being so late.
00:41:08I tried to contact the mainland.
00:41:10Well, did you have any luck?
00:41:13Can we get over?
00:41:15It's out of the question.
00:41:16There's been no work on the dike so far.
00:41:19And they predict the flood will be rising.
00:41:21Apparently, nobody's left on the peninsula.
00:41:24Only us.
00:41:25What you've done for the family is extremely dangerous.
00:41:29Outside, there's nothing but swamp and moor.
00:41:32Not even the streets are safe.
00:41:34I was rather hoping to be rid of this madman, Tilling.
00:41:37Oh, didn't you know?
00:41:39Tilling is dead.
00:41:43Did he commit suicide?
00:41:45No.
00:41:46He's been killed like the others.
00:41:49By being strangled.
00:41:52So the murderer is still present in the castle.
00:42:00Yes.
00:42:01Well, he must have escaped from the madhouse.
00:42:03I can't bear it much longer.
00:42:05I think Sir Hawkbridge is very close to the truth.
00:42:09A normal man's very unlikely to have committed these crimes.
00:42:15These scarves.
00:42:16These damnable scarves.
00:42:18If I had some idea where they came from...
00:42:20Well, I've considered the problem for a time.
00:42:22And today, doing my morning push-ups, I thought of the answer.
00:42:25Well?
00:42:26These scarves belong to Lord Albert Spencer Lebanon,
00:42:28the father of the late lamented Lord Francis Percival Lebanon.
00:42:31It was India they came from.
00:42:33From India?
00:42:34How many of the scarves did he bring back?
00:42:36Lord Albert purchased all things by the dozen.
00:42:38Alas, he suffered from the delusion that if he did not, the salesman would bite him.
00:42:42Wish they had bitten him.
00:42:43But where are the scarves kept now?
00:42:45When I took over in the fourth generation the post of butler at Marks Priory,
00:42:48I remember they were in a chest kept in the Green Salon.
00:42:50Where is the Green Salon?
00:42:51It's occupied by Mr. Ross.
00:42:53At present.
00:42:57Well, Barnwood, go upstairs and search it.
00:42:59Not without me.
00:43:00All right, go with him.
00:43:01After breakfast.
00:43:02You better go on alone.
00:43:05Well.
00:43:07Could have done that right away.
00:43:09Mr. Tennant.
00:43:11You said a while ago that the killer cannot be seen.
00:43:15Are you aware that a dope addict is also capable of murder?
00:43:19Kindly explain that, Dr. Amersham.
00:43:21Aren't there traits of our illegitimate Lebanon that have struck you?
00:43:25Ross?
00:43:27Not that I know of.
00:43:28Uncertain.
00:43:29Yesterday, for example.
00:43:31Didn't you notice how he trembled, smashed the glass in his hand and fled to his room?
00:43:36Well, yes, but what's it mean?
00:43:38It was when the Lady Lebanon took him to task.
00:43:41Nope.
00:43:42The symptoms indicate the want of an essential tranquilizing agent.
00:43:46A narcotic of some kind, whether it be called morphine or cocaine or heroin.
00:43:50It's all the same.
00:44:02Whatever you're after, you won't find it.
00:44:05Well, hope springs eternal in the human breast.
00:44:09Yes, Isla, you're quite eligible.
00:44:11All the airs are targets for the murderer.
00:44:12You too.
00:44:13Me?
00:44:14The closer you come to the solution, the worse danger you'll be in.
00:44:17That's a very good point, of course.
00:44:18And very alarming, isn't it?
00:44:19Yes.
00:44:20Scared?
00:44:21For you.
00:44:22Uh-huh.
00:44:23Frankly.
00:44:24That's sad.
00:44:25And yet I was absolutely positive that when Tilling shot at me the other day,
00:44:28you were very alarmed and called out my name in a loud voice.
00:44:31You have a vivid imagination.
00:44:34Apparently.
00:44:39Uh, find anything?
00:44:40Nothing, sir.
00:44:41I went over everything very carefully, but they're not to be found.
00:44:43That was in the cards.
00:44:44What have you got there?
00:44:45A pair of black gloves of my lady, which I found in the chest.
00:44:48Good work.
00:44:49Thanks.
00:44:50You can go.
00:44:51Uh, Ross, where are the scarves?
00:44:55I'll never tell.
00:44:56I need them for the others.
00:44:58Very amusing.
00:44:59The last is kept especially for you.
00:45:02Very nice.
00:45:03That means I still have some time.
00:45:05Uh, I wanted to ask you something, Ross.
00:45:07What?
00:45:08How long have you been a dope addict?
00:45:30Edward.
00:45:43Edward.
00:45:44This is.
00:45:46Why do you act this way with your elders?
00:45:53What's wrong?
00:45:55Edward.
00:45:57What's wrong with you?
00:46:00Shh.
00:46:02What is it?
00:46:07Shh.
00:46:08Aren't you hot?
00:46:15Get out of my room.
00:46:17But Edward, I was just.
00:46:19Get out of here at once.
00:46:20What did I do?
00:46:21Mad.
00:46:29What's happened, Sir Hotbridge?
00:46:34Pete.
00:46:35Go on upstairs.
00:46:42Edward.
00:46:45Edward.
00:46:47Please, it's me.
00:46:48Open up.
00:46:50Edward.
00:46:51Open the door.
00:47:00He's playing.
00:47:02What happened, Hotbridge?
00:47:04You can tell us.
00:47:06Nothing.
00:47:09I knocked on the door.
00:47:11And then I went in.
00:47:13And suddenly.
00:47:14Where did you find that scarf?
00:47:16What?
00:47:18Where did I find what?
00:47:19That scarf.
00:47:21I have no idea.
00:47:23It must have come from my room.
00:47:25It was in my chest, so I took it.
00:47:27I never gave it a thought.
00:47:30Oh, I'm sick.
00:47:33Quite sick.
00:47:34I've got a temperature.
00:47:36I'm not used to this damp climate anymore.
00:47:41I'm utterly demolished.
00:47:43I must go up and rest.
00:47:44Yes, Sir Henry.
00:47:46Lie down a while.
00:47:48Chico will heat your bath.
00:47:49You should have a steam bath this evening.
00:47:51And then tomorrow I guarantee your fever will be gone.
00:47:54Yes.
00:48:00I must have a word alone with you, my lady.
00:48:03Right away, please.
00:48:05Yes.
00:48:06Of course.
00:48:22Well, a suspect you and Miss Harris won't do.
00:48:25The murderer must have been a man.
00:48:26It takes a lot of strength to strangle a man like Tilling.
00:48:28Neither of you could manage.
00:48:30Sit down.
00:48:33So, who've we got?
00:48:35First off.
00:48:36King, get down.
00:48:37Go on, King.
00:48:38First of all, Chico.
00:48:39Chico's got strength enough, but not enough intelligence.
00:48:43Then,
00:48:44Bongwit.
00:48:45Ah, Mr. Tanner, admit that idea is a bit ludicrous.
00:48:48Yes.
00:48:50Then, of course,
00:48:51who has all it takes.
00:48:52The strength,
00:48:53the motive,
00:48:54the intelligence,
00:48:56and the instrument.
00:48:57Amersham's got to be reckoned with,
00:48:59and then there is
00:49:00Mr. Ross,
00:49:01who detests you all,
00:49:03because you've treated him like a pariah.
00:49:05And who is an addict,
00:49:06as Amersham has observed.
00:49:08That's right.
00:49:10Yes, and then we must count
00:49:14your son.
00:49:16Your son.
00:49:18Your son.
00:49:19Your son.
00:49:21What?
00:49:22Yes, naturally.
00:49:24He might lose a fortune worth millions of pounds in this testament.
00:49:28You dare accuse my son of this scandal.
00:49:31That boy's never had anything on his mind but his music.
00:49:37One person you have forgotten
00:49:39is a certain Mr. Tanner.
00:49:41Me, you say?
00:49:42Yes.
00:49:45Who can be sure you haven't already examined the last will?
00:49:48Who can be sure that the testament doesn't contain a clause
00:49:51whereby you would become sole heir
00:49:53if none of the family were left alive after you've killed
00:49:56all the immediate prospects?
00:50:01But, my lady...
00:50:02Then show me the last testament.
00:50:03Immediately.
00:50:07I can do that.
00:50:09Not before the seventh morning.
00:50:18Shit!
00:51:18THE LAST TESTAMENT
00:51:49Enough!
00:51:50Enough!
00:51:51Too hot!
00:52:11This idiotic,
00:52:13stupid,
00:52:15idiotic
00:52:16This idiotic piano playing of my nephew's is driving me mad.
00:52:47THE LAST TESTAMENT
00:53:09I've no idea.
00:53:10I'm sure I didn't see nothing.
00:53:12It's just steam.
00:53:13Steam.
00:53:14Steam.
00:53:16Only steam.
00:53:18Steam, huh?
00:53:20Did you hear anything?
00:53:22No, only steam.
00:53:24Only steam.
00:53:25What's the matter with you?
00:53:26Chico, you know something.
00:53:27No, sir.
00:53:28I don't know nothing.
00:53:29Yeah.
00:53:31Well, wait for me near the heater.
00:53:33I might have more to say to you.
00:53:35Yes, sir.
00:53:36Go on, Emerson.
00:53:37Did you speak to Sir Hockbridge at all
00:53:39while you were in here?
00:53:41No, I didn't.
00:53:42I know.
00:53:43Wasn't that a bit unfriendly?
00:53:45Two men who meet in a steam bath and don't speak to each other?
00:53:48What's so strange about that?
00:53:49But you must have seen him if he sat there in front of you on the bench.
00:53:52Yes, I...
00:53:53You must have.
00:53:54Of course, I saw him there.
00:53:55And he saw you?
00:53:56Yes.
00:53:57And neither of you opened your mouth?
00:53:58Well, if you really must know,
00:54:01he said that the idiotic piano playing was driving him crazy.
00:54:09Edward!
00:54:11You might have tried to say that a little more tactfully.
00:54:15Sorry, I didn't think.
00:54:18Mr. Ross, where were you yesterday between 8 and 10 o'clock?
00:54:21Where were you between 8 and 10?
00:54:22Why, you...
00:54:24A nice cup of hot tea is what you need.
00:54:26Get out, Bonwit.
00:54:28What did you say, sir?
00:54:29Oh, Mr. Tanner meant,
00:54:31just for the moment, we won't have tea.
00:54:33Very well, my lady.
00:54:36By all means, continue.
00:54:40By the way, someone broke into my room yesterday
00:54:43and went to a good deal of trouble to get a hold of the last will.
00:54:47Someone's anxious to know the contents ahead of time.
00:54:52What's the point of gaping at me, Mr. Tanner?
00:54:56So you don't remember, my lady?
00:54:59That was clumsy of you, Amersham.
00:55:02You've managed to aim Tanner's suspicion straight at me.
00:55:05I didn't go to his room, my dear.
00:55:07I give you my word.
00:55:08Your word? What's that worth?
00:55:10A shilling, a penny, or nothing at all.
00:55:12And let this be the last time you adopt that familiar tone.
00:55:17The time for that is long past.
00:55:23I warn you, you may go too far.
00:55:27One day I'm going to set all my cards on the table.
00:55:29And spend the rest of your life behind bars?
00:55:32Yes, both of us together.
00:55:36But you'd be losing a good deal more.
00:55:40Get out.
00:56:11Tanner!
00:56:14Mr. Tanner!
00:56:17Mr. Tanner!
00:56:25I'm working.
00:56:31What do you want?
00:56:37Is Chico often here?
00:56:38Is Chico often here?
00:56:39He sits with me as often as he can.
00:56:42At which time you encourage him to liquidate your relatives, right?
00:56:48You underestimate me.
00:56:52It's a matter of principle with me to commit my own murders.
00:56:56Chico's been murdered.
00:56:59His conscience drove him to commit suicide.
00:57:03I never could stand you, Tanner.
00:57:06With your macabre jokes.
00:57:07No, Ross, it's no joke. I'm afraid it's the plain truth.
00:57:11Chico was scared.
00:57:13Panic-stricken.
00:57:15That I'd succeed in making him confess.
00:57:17What do you mean by that?
00:57:18I'll be glad to tell you.
00:57:20Chico did commit the murders.
00:57:23But he was simply the tool.
00:57:27Somebody else was using him.
00:57:30Somebody else was using it.
00:57:33Mr. Ross.
00:57:41Milady, breakfast is served.
00:57:45Thank you, my darling.
00:57:50Have a good breakfast.
00:58:00No!
00:58:23Now he wants breakfast in bed.
00:58:25Naturally, the guests are fewer, so they expect more.
00:58:30No reason for him to be here at all.
00:58:38What's the matter?
00:58:39Where's your suitcase? You must get out of here right away.
00:58:41There it is.
00:58:44You might at least say good morning.
00:58:46We've got no time for manners.
00:58:47The situation is desperate.
00:58:48Would it be very indiscreet to ask what's going on?
00:58:50There have been five murders in your immediate vicinity.
00:58:52I thought you might have noticed.
00:58:54As I have no intentions of letting you be the sixth,
00:58:56you're going to pack up your things and come with me.
00:58:59As of today, you're sleeping with me.
00:59:00What? Who do you think you are?
00:59:03Just come with me.
00:59:06What's this?
00:59:07A closet.
00:59:08So you think.
00:59:09Look.
00:59:11He can walk in any time he wants to.
00:59:12Who?
00:59:13Who? Who?
00:59:14The murderer.
00:59:16And when he walks in, you may never walk out, so come on.
00:59:24Good morning.
00:59:25I've already put a nice pot of tea in your room.
00:59:27Good. Please bring breakfast for Miss Harris to my room, too.
00:59:29She'll be staying with me.
00:59:30Very well, sir.
00:59:31Sir?
00:59:32The sort of thing you're playing isn't permitted at the castle.
00:59:35I mean, not so openly.
00:59:38From the beginning, I never trusted that Tanner.
00:59:42Never.
00:59:45And I don't understand Isla.
00:59:48She's with him all the time now.
00:59:50Oh, my poor dear.
00:59:52She's no great loss now, is she?
00:59:55Yes.
00:59:56She means a great deal to me.
01:00:03I'll marry Isla one day.
01:00:07What?
01:00:12Up to now, I've never had much amusement.
01:00:14But Edward.
01:00:21You were always a happy child.
01:00:26You think so?
01:00:28I was very lonely.
01:00:30Outside of you and Papa, I never saw another human being.
01:00:35I always worked ten, twelve hours a day.
01:00:45I never even knew that other things existed.
01:00:50But since I've known Isla...
01:00:53Edward.
01:00:56Yes, what is it?
01:00:57Breakfast, milady.
01:00:58No, not now.
01:01:01Edward.
01:01:04The Edinburgh Meteorological Institute announces that Hurricane Carla is now moving northward.
01:01:09The force of the hurricane, which caused serious damage on the west coast of Scotland, is gradually diminishing.
01:01:16Thank the Lord.
01:01:17Finally a glimmer of hope.
01:01:19Now, listen to me carefully, Isla.
01:01:21We can't leave here yet.
01:01:22There are only the moors and all the roads are impossible.
01:01:25We must resign ourselves to staying here.
01:01:27And somehow try to survive.
01:01:29Give me one.
01:01:33Four heirs remain alive.
01:01:35One of them must be the murderer, of course.
01:01:37And if he runs true to form, he will naturally try to...
01:01:40You know what?
01:01:41Yes, why should he leave the job half done?
01:01:44I don't know.
01:01:45You know what?
01:01:46Yes, why should he leave the job half done?
01:01:51You bet.
01:01:52Why, indeed.
01:01:53Be careful.
01:01:54I searched in here with a fine-toothed comb without finding another entrance.
01:01:58So in case I ever have to leave you by yourself here, just remember to lock up like Snow White.
01:02:04Snow White.
01:02:05And if anybody tries to break in by force, then by all means shoot.
01:02:08Shoot?
01:02:09Yes, shoot.
01:02:10And I'm going to show you how it's done.
01:02:12First, you take a revolver.
01:02:16The revolver's gone.
01:02:18Hands up!
01:02:22I said hands up!
01:02:28You are very smart indeed, Mr. Tanner.
01:02:31Coming here as an attorney whom nobody ever heard of before.
01:02:34Neither M'lady nor Amersham nor Hotbridge.
01:02:37What are you really, Mr. Tanner?
01:02:39So, you don't want to talk.
01:02:41The police can be relied on to make you talk.
01:02:43You'll see.
01:02:44For God's sake, you're completely crazy.
01:02:46Because you and Miss Harris couldn't fool me.
01:02:49A very respectable pair of connivers.
01:02:52Get out.
01:02:53And no false moves.
01:02:56Come on, Isla.
01:02:57We've got to.
01:03:02A pretty boy.
01:03:03A pretty boy.
01:03:04A pretty boy.
01:03:05A pretty boy.
01:03:06A pretty boy.
01:03:07A pretty boy.
01:03:08A pretty pistol you got there.
01:03:10Shut up.
01:03:33Stop him!
01:03:38All right, Miss Harris.
01:03:40In here.
01:03:47Go on.
01:04:08Go on.
01:04:15Go on downstairs.
01:04:34You filthy swine.
01:04:36Wanted me to break my neck, didn't you?
01:04:38What happened?
01:04:41Open the door.
01:04:43Open up.
01:04:46But, Miss Harris.
01:04:47You were just in the bedroom with Mr. Tanner.
01:04:49How did you get in here?
01:04:50How quickly, Bonwit.
01:04:51You must get hold of the police right away.
01:04:53Right away.
01:04:54All our lives depend on it.
01:04:59Out.
01:05:02In here.
01:05:09My dear friend.
01:05:10When Cleopatra arrives,
01:05:11please be so kind as to notify Scotland Yard.
01:05:13It is a matter of life and death.
01:05:15Very sincerely, yours, Richard M. Bonwit.
01:05:17Murder.
01:05:18Murder.
01:05:19No stupid remarks now, if you please.
01:05:21Murder.
01:05:28Don't bring dishonor down upon your master.
01:05:30Fly quickly and chastely.
01:05:32No amorous adventures on the way.
01:05:34You may save our lives.
01:05:36Direction north-northwest.
01:05:44Well?
01:05:45I'll take him care of it, as you told me.
01:05:47I found the suitcase, but I can't open the lock.
01:06:04Nothing.
01:06:07He's hidden it away somewhere else.
01:06:10Don't worry.
01:06:13The little girl will talk, I promise you.
01:06:24What did he mean by that?
01:06:26Who's to talk?
01:06:33Isla.
01:06:36Isla?
01:06:39I must hurt you very much, my son.
01:06:42This Mr. Tanner is a criminal.
01:06:44And Isla is his partner.
01:06:50That's a lie.
01:06:53That's a damned lie!
01:06:54A filthy, damned lie!
01:06:59Oh, now, my darling, come.
01:07:02You mustn't be so upset.
01:07:07What have you got there?
01:07:09I'm bringing the spider of the deceased Sir Huckbridge to the radiator.
01:07:12It's used to a tropical climate and therefore extremely...
01:07:15Nervous.
01:07:17Give it here.
01:07:19Hey, there!
01:07:24Be damned.
01:07:29For the last time, where's Tanner keeping the will?
01:07:36I don't know.
01:07:59Where's the testament?
01:08:00I haven't any idea. I told you, I don't know.
01:08:03No, and you'll inform me.
01:08:04No, I can't.
01:08:19Help me!
01:08:21Help!
01:08:35Now I'll just take that and...
01:08:38Don't worry, that swine won't harm you, Isla.
01:08:42What was that?
01:08:48Please recall, you come from the same side.
01:08:52You're no son of my father.
01:08:54Oh, yes. Oh, yes, and I can prove it.
01:08:56The old fellow recognized his paternity and paid alimony.
01:09:00He was rather liberal.
01:09:01Shame on you.
01:09:05Isla!
01:09:07Isla!
01:09:10Oh, Bonwit!
01:09:11Ralph locked Mr. Tanner up somewhere.
01:09:13Very odd behavior. I'll inform the lady so we can free the poor man.
01:09:16No, please don't listen to me. We must find him ourselves. I don't trust anybody else.
01:09:19All right, let's go find him together. But you must do me one favor.
01:09:22What is it?
01:09:23I've got to know how many people are going to be at supper tonight.
01:09:25Oh, that's more than I can tell you.
01:09:29Mr. Tanner!
01:09:31Mr. Tanner!
01:09:33Frank!
01:09:35Frank!
01:09:36Mr. Tanner!
01:09:37Here I am.
01:09:38Here he is.
01:09:39In here.
01:09:41Oh, Frank, Ross...
01:09:42This time I'm sure you said Frank, young lady.
01:09:44Don't start telling me I've got too much imagination.
01:09:46Ross wanted to know where the wheel is. He tied me to a chair.
01:09:49If Edward had been a second leader...
01:09:51Where's Ross now?
01:09:52In his room with Edward.
01:09:53What?
01:09:55Bonwit, you're responsible to me for Miss Harris' life.
01:09:57Sir, I will never abandon Miss Harris, I swear.
01:09:59That's a bit too much.
01:10:01Miss Harris, have no fear.
01:10:03When aroused to fury, I am a tiger.
01:10:30I love you.
01:10:42Isla!
01:10:44Bonwit!
01:10:45Bonwit!
01:10:46Sir!
01:10:48What are you doing back there?
01:10:49Where's Miss Harris?
01:10:50Quite safe, sir.
01:10:54Go and find out where Mr. Ross is. I'll come right away.
01:10:56Right-o, sir.
01:11:00What's going on?
01:11:01Look out, King.
01:11:02That's nothing to feed on. It's our dear deceased Uncle Chico.
01:11:05It's all plaster. All plaster.
01:11:30What is it?
01:11:31Sir, sir.
01:11:32What's wrong with the dog?
01:11:33Oh, sir.
01:11:36Here.
01:11:46Get the dog out of here.
01:11:47Go on, King.
01:11:48Get the dog out of here.
01:11:58Go on, King.
01:12:14One more invites the dust.
01:12:42We misjudged him.
01:12:44He wasn't the murderer.
01:12:46He wasn't an addict either.
01:12:49This is insulin.
01:12:51He was diabetic.
01:12:52Edward?

01:16:02Edward.
01:16:04Yes.
01:16:08You're right.
01:16:11I was mistaken in thinking you didn't have the strength.
01:16:16Look at these.
01:16:18Your prizes should have made me suspect.
01:16:21Tennis, golf, riding.
01:16:26Oh, yes.
01:16:28You were plenty strong enough.
01:16:31Yes.
01:16:34Yes, I'm strong.
01:16:41When Chico died, I nearly guessed the truth.
01:16:44He was there when Hawkbridge was murdered, wasn't he?
01:16:50But he refused to betray you.
01:16:53So he picked the only way out.
01:16:55A mother's love is very touching, my lady.
01:16:59But what you did in its name is quite a different matter.
01:17:04I don't have to say what's in store for you now.
01:17:07You've known all along.
01:17:25I love you.
01:17:55I love you.

01:20:30Well, at present there is not much space left, sir.
01:20:37Well, at present, there's not much space left, sir.
01:20:52Gentlemen, ladies, with your kind permission, I will proceed to read the will.
01:21:05My last will, and...
01:21:26The sun is shining gaily.
01:21:28We are once again connected to the mainland.
01:21:31Give it to me.
01:21:33Captain Marks Priory, Tanner speaking.
01:21:35Scotland Yard.
01:21:36Inspector Foxman here.
01:21:37I've received an aerial message from my friend Bonwit.
01:21:41Seems all is not well at the castle.
01:21:42No, everything's under control.
01:21:45I'll be there in an hour.
01:21:46Yes, but...
01:21:50Scotland Yard's arriving here in an hour.
01:21:52They were inquiring about a message, an aerial one.
01:21:57Cleopatra!
01:21:59Well, we'd better finish this affair.
01:22:01I'll try to begin once more.
01:22:04My last will and testament, my dears.
01:22:07Silence, please.
01:22:13When the members and hangers-on of my family will have succeeded in exterminating each
01:22:17other out of greed, or when they have finally been murdered by my crazy son, the scarf appended
01:22:23to my will is herewith bequeathed as a personal souvenir and out of gratitude for his loyalty
01:22:28to...
01:22:31My faithful butler, Mr. Richard Maria Bonwit.
01:22:37Castle Marks Priory and the rest of my property I hereby bequeath to the great man whom I
01:22:42consider as the finest writer of the century.
