[dramatic music]

[footsteps clattering]

[woman speaking in
foreign language]

It is a lifelike effigy

of one of your great countrymen,

Prince Albert, second son
of the Duke of Saxe-Coburg.

Ah, ja, the Queen
Victoria's man.

Her husband, the Prince Consort.

And why was he not king?

Ah, he was not heir
to the British throne,

but he was a fine man,
very highly respected.

[women speaking in
foreign language]

Gerda, your father, the baron,

is most insistent that
while you're here,

you speak only English.

No, it was not because
Prince Albert was German

that he was not made
king, I assure you.

It was a matter of
tradition, t-r-a-d-i-t-i-o-n.

Well, I do not like
your tradition,

and I do not think
he was a great man.

No great German
lets his woman rule.

Hmm!

Krempelstein, chief of
German intelligence,

has arrived in England.

My report.

Most disturbing.

[dramatic music]

[Narrator] In Edwardian times
there lived many detectives,

The Rivals of Sherlock Homes.

Krempelstein.

Count Otto, here he is,

a Prussian, colonel
in the Hussars,

attached to the General Staff.

Huh.

Dash it all, Drew.

It's hard to believe
an officer like this

would stoop to spying.

Yes, if he were an
Englishman, my lord,

it would be unthinkable.

Regrettably, these foreigners
don't share our scruples.

I fear you're right.

But your informant, Miss...

Miss Baines.

Miss Baines.
Can you rely on her?

I mean, what sort
of a woman is she?

A patriot, my lord.

Hmm, no doubt.

It hardly seems the thing.

Inveigles herself into
a position of trust

in the count's
Prussian household?

That responsibility
is entirely mine, sir.

I confess it goes against the
grain, but we have no choice.

Yes, but a woman,
and a governess.

Precisely, my lord.

She is above suspicion

and, for that very reason,
of inestimable value to us.

Well, I can see that.

It's a beastly underhand
business, Drew.

Quite so, sir.

What does she say here?

That Count Krempelstein
is in England.

He will be staying
with a certain wealthy

called Baron Stern,

who's taken a hunting
box near Stoke Doyle.

The count has arranged to hunt
with the Fitzwilliam pack.

And what does your
impeccable Miss Baines

find suspicious about that?

Well, it was a very
sudden decision, sir.

Count Krempelstein canceled

an important military
conference in Prussia

and came here for the hunt.

Hunting is given as his sport.

Since the late emperors of
Austria came here to hunt,

the Fitzwilliam has always been

a favorite pack with foreigners.

It so happens, my lord,

I was at Oxford with
George Fitzwilliam.

I have a long-standing
invitation to stay with him.

You mean you could keep
an eye on Krempelstein.

I could, indeed.

Miss Baines is convinced
he has an ulterior motive.

Miss Baines has no evidence.

I fear not, unfortunately.

One might say it is more a
question of a woman's intuition.

- Poppycock.
- [both chuckling]

With the greatest
respect, my lord,

if Miss Baines is right

and Krempelstein is
here on business,

you can be quite certain

it won't be business
to England's advantage.

Very well. What do you suggest?

Not only will I
accept my invitation

to stay with the Fitzwilliams,

I shall leave first
thing in the morning.

[birds chirping]

[people chattering]

William.

What a dreadful time to arrive.

I'm so sorry, Sybil.

- How beastly of you.
- We're delighted.

- George, how nice to see you.
- William, how are you?

- At last, I've accepted
your invitation. - How are things going?

I want to introduce you to
my cousin, Beatrice Graham.

Oh, excuse me, George.

This is my cousin,
Beatrice Graham.

William Drew, a very
old friend of George's.

How do you do?

I'm delighted to meet
you, Miss Graham.

[chuckles]

Well, really, George, you've
no right to have kept it secret

that you had such a
charming relative.

Well, this is the
first time they've met.

Excuse me.

Beatrice was brought
up on the Continent.

Ah.

[people chattering]

Whereabouts on the Continent
did you live, Miss Graham?

I was at school in France.

Are you staying here
very long, Miss Graham?

As long as she wishes.

I'm not sure how long.

A lot depends on my fianc�.

Oh, he's a bit in
your line, William.

His name's Bellingham.

He's attached to our
embassy in Petersburg.

- Jack Bellingham?
- Yes. Do you know him?

George, Sir Dudley.

Well, I know the name, but
we've never actually met.

Oh. [chuckles]

Ooh, this really is splendid,

well-laced with
spice and spirit.

[chuckles] You know, Mr. Drew,

I don't think you're
really entitled to that.

Why? Oh, because
I'm not hunting?

Well, my dear Miss Graham,

my doctor has denied me
the pleasures of the hunt

due to a fall, you see, my leg.

Surely, you wouldn't
deny me some consolation.

[chuckles]

Will you excuse me a moment?

I've just remembered
something I have to do.

Yes, certainly.

May I have the pleasure, my
daughter Gerda, to introduce?

- How do you do?
- Good morning.

- How do you do?
- How do you do, Gerda?

I hope you and Baron Stern are
comfortable at Stoke Doyle.

[man speaking in
foreign language]

- Is this your first
visit to England? - Yes, thank you.

I introduce now Miss Baines.

[laughs] She is my
daughter's kinderfraulein.

Governess.

Governess. She's English.

- How do you do?
- How do you do?

- How do you do?
- How do you do?

Oh, gentlemen, let me introduce
you to Sir Dudley Withers.

Ah.

How do you do?

Oh, how do you do?

Which one is Krempelstein?

The man with the mustache.

My name is Maude Baines.

Oh, I'm William Drew.

Actually, he's Russian.

Colonel Davidoff,
D-a-v-i-d-o-f-f.

Davidoff. The Russian
secret service?

Same man.

[door closes]

Miss Baines?

They both seem to be very
interested in that young lady.

Yes.

- Who is she?
- Hmm?

Ah, yes, she's enchanting.

My host's cousin,
Beatrice Graham.

She only recently
returned to England.

She's been living in Petersburg.

I see.

[horn blares]

[dogs barking]

Davidoff?

Russian secret service?

Now, why should he be here?

Miss Baines, are you
sure it's Davidoff?

I should not dream of saying
so unless I were, Mr. Drew.

I beg your pardon-

I saw him on several occasions

when I was in the service
of Prince Obolensky,

and I recognized him
the moment we met.

But, Miss Baines, you
are living in his house.

Isn't there a chance that
he may recognize you?

No. No, I assure you.

There's no cause for
anxiety on that point.

Well, I'm very
gratified to hear it.

But why should Davidoff be
here under a false name?

That I'm afraid I've
been unable to discover,

nor, indeed, why they have
chosen to meet here at all.

You don't think it
is, as they have said,

simply for the hunt?

No, I'm sure on that point.

If that were so,
why should Davidoff choose to hide under a false name?

- You're right.
- Last night, they were closeted together for several hours.

Ah, but you've no idea why.

I listened at the door.

Miss Baines, was that discreet?

It was safe. Sugar?

Yeah, two, please.
It wasn't at all safe.

I am not a woman who
takes risks, I assure you.

Unfortunately, I was
unable to overhear

more than a fragment
of the conversation.

Thank you.

They were discussing a
new Russo-German treaty.

Miss Baines.

A new Russo-German treaty?

The information comes from
our ambassador in Berlin.

As he understands it,

it has been signed by the kaiser

and awaits only the
signature of the tsar.

Why, what are the
terms of this treaty?

That, my dear Macclesfield,

is what we expect your
department to find out.

I don't have to remind you

that such an alliance

could seriously jeopardize
British interests.

You may rest assured I will
institute immediate inquiries,

see what our agents
can discover.

Very well. Keep me informed.

The prime minister is most
anxious about this matter.

Marquess.

I must cable Drew.

Immediately.

[people chattering]

Beatrice, Baron Stern
would like to present

the brush to you.

[audience applauding]

Oh, that's very kind
of him, but there's no-

My friend, the count, and
I are full of admiration.

Although I was awarded it,

you were the only lady present

who was able to keep
up with the pace.

We would be greatly honored

if you would accept
the brush, Miss Graham.

- Oh.
- Bravo! Bravo!

Thank you.

Not at all.

I hope that we will have the
honor to ride with you again.

Perhaps you and your
guests will do me the honor

to have drinks with us tomorrow
evening at my hunting box.

Yes, I'm sure we'd
all be delighted.

Oh, did you meet my
friend William Drew?

- Baron Stern from Vienna.
- A pleasure.

And Count Krempelstein
from Berlin.

- Welcome to England.
- Fraulein von Krempelstein.

I trust you will
enjoy your stay.

[speaking in foreign language]

We are very happy to have
the opportunity here to hunt.

Yes, till tomorrow
evening, then.

Yes, we shall look
forward to it.

That was a very gallant
gesture from the baron.

Yes, wasn't it?

Yes, he seems a
charming gentleman.

Have you met him before?

No, I've only been
here a few days.

Ah, an Austrian, I believe.

If you'll excuse me, I
must change for lunch.

Of course.

A telegram for you, sir.

Oh, thank you, Musgrove.

Thank you.

Is there a post
office in the village?

About four miles, sir.

If you wish to reply, one
of the servants can take it.

No, no, no, no. I
shall go myself later.

I shall enjoy the walk.

Very good, sir.

Thank you, Musgrove.

[bells chiming]

Am I disturbing you?

No. No, certainly not.

I just wanted to get a book.

Oh, then please do.

Thank you.

I've been writing to my
fianc�, but I've finished now.

Ah. Are you enjoying
your stay here?

Yes.

I had a splendid walk to
the village yesterday.

There's a wonderful
old church on the way.

You should have joined me.

I was rather fatigued
after the hunt.

I slept for about three hours.

Ah, what a pity. It was
a splendid afternoon.

Mm.

You went to the post office.

Yes, yes, it's part
of the village store.

My letter is very urgent.

Do you think they'd
sent it express mail?

Yes, I'm sure they
could handle that.

Have you any idea how long
it would take to get there?

To Petersburg? I should
say about a week.

Why? Is your letter
so very urgent?

Yes.

Miss Graham, I
don't wish to pry,

but if you're in any
kind of trouble, I-

Trouble? What makes you think-

Oh, please, please forgive me.

You just seem so
very anxious that I-

Isn't it natural for a woman
to be anxious to communicate

with the man she's
going to marry?

Indeed, it is.

And if I may say so,

Jack Bellingham is
a very lucky man.

However, I think I may
be able to help you.

In what way?

Well, it's necessary for me

to go to the Foreign
Office tomorrow,

and since your fianc�'s
attached to our embassy

in Petersburg, I
could no doubt arrange

for your letter to go
in the diplomatic bag.

Oh, that's very kind of
you, Mr. Drew, but I can't-

Well, there does appear to
be some urgency, Miss Graham.

Yes, but I can't expect you to-

It shall be done.

Thank you.

Thank you very much.

My pleasure.

- Mr. Drew?
- Yes, Miss Graham?

Do you hold an important
position in the Foreign Office?

[chuckles] Ah, no,
I'm afraid not.

No, I'm hardly more than
a glorified messenger boy.

Oh.

But one has
connections, you know.

I was wondering
whether you knew-

Ah, there you are.

We couldn't think where
you'd both got to.

Come and have a glass of sherry.

That's a very civilized
idea, George, thank you.

But we mustn't be long.

Beatrice, you haven't forgotten

our luncheon engagement
with Sir Dudley?

No.

Sir Dudley is a
stickler for time.

May I ride with you
as far as the station?

Of course. We've
arranged for all that.

Come along, George.

Miss Graham, you were
wondering whether I knew-

I was thinking about Jack.

Naturally, I want him to get on.

Oh, I'm afraid I have no
influence of that kind.

No, I'm sorry. I
shouldn't have asked.

- Again, thank you.
- Miss-

Your Miss Graham
interests me, Drew.

So, she's been
living in Petersburg?

Yes, my lord, but there's
more to it than that.

She's engaged to be
married, to Jack Bellingham,

who's attached to our
embassy in Petersburg.

- Jack Bellingham?
- Yes.

Good God, I know his father.

[chuckles] You don't
seriously think he-

We have one way of
finding out, my lord.

Oh?

Miss Graham was most anxious

to get this letter
to her fianc�.

What?

I took the liberty of suggesting

that we might forward it
in the diplomatic bag.

Open it?

Yes.

Open a letter from a woman to
the man she's about to marry?

Is there no honor left
in the world today, Drew?

I share your abhorrence
of such a course, my lord,

but if Miss Graham is a traitor,

we may yet prevent her
dragging Bellingham

down into disgrace with her.

You're right.

For his sake and for
the sake of our country,

we must dispense with scruples.

Hargreaves?

[steam hissing]

[clears throat]

[giggling]

What are you doing down here?

There's work to be done.
Upstairs, the both of you.

See to the fires
in the bedrooms.

Mm!

[women screaming]

Stop! Villain! Stop!

[dogs barking]

Ohh!

What else do you know
about this woman?

Her father managed
a mill in Russia.

He died recently, but
there's very little money,

so she was compelled
to find work

with a costumier in the Newski.

It was while she was there
that she met her fianc�.

That's hardly reassuring.

An impoverished Englishwoman

would be natural prey
for these devils.

Yes.

We must do what we
must do. Hargreaves.

Excuse me, Drew.

"My dearest Jack, before
I left Petersburg, I wrote

an important letter to await
your return from Moscow."

He was seconded
there for a month.

"In your reply,

you make no mention of
the document I wrote about.

Why have you ignored it?

Now interested parties have
traced me to Stoke Doyle,

and I do not know what to do.

They have told me
you will be in danger

unless I pass it to them.

I have said I know nothing,
but they do not believe me.

Please, please write immediately

and tell me what I am to do.

I am so afraid.

Your ever-loving
fianc�e, Beatrice."

"The document I wrote about."

- That worries me.
- Yes, with good cause, my lord.

If men like Krempelstein and
Davidoff are here to get it,

you can be quite sure
it's of great importance.

I presume your Miss Baines

has heard nothing
of this document?

No. Well, she
hasn't mentioned it.

We've got to get to the
bottom of it quickly, Drew.

At all costs, we must find
out what they're after

before they leave the country.

Yes, but that's not going
to be easy, my lord.

I am aware of that.

We must not fail.

Then I, if I may be
so bold, my lord,

- I have one suggestion to make.
- Yes?

Instead of forwarding
this letter to Bellingham,

why not have him recalled?

But if he is a traitor,
that will alert him.

Very possibly,

but it will also ensure the
safety of our other secrets

in the Petersburg embassy.

You're right.

And if his actions
are above reproach,

he may be able to enlighten us

as to what this
document really is.

I'll send a telegram to
the ambassador immediately.

Hargreaves!

I tried to stop him, sir,
but I'm afraid I was-

My jewels are safe.

Nothing in our room
has been disturbed.

Thank God for that.

What about the police, Musgrove?

Well, I called them
immediately, of course, sir.

The detective thinks the
man came up the stairs

at the back of the house.

Yes, very likely, but what
are they doing about it?

Well, the detective is
coming back to see you, sir,

to get a list of
the stolen property.

He left to make
inquiries at the station

to see if the man was trying
to get away by train, sir.

Beatrice, have you checked?

Yes. My drawers and cases
have been turned out,

but as far as I can see,
there is nothing missing.

Oh, thank heavens for that.

Well, it looks as
though he was disturbed

before he had a chance to
take anything, Musgrove.

I should like to think so, sir.

But I'm most frightfully
sorry that this-

Yes, of course, you
did all you could.

That'll be all for
the moment. Thank you.

Have you lost anything?

It seems not.

Yours appears to be the
only room he entered.

Miss Baines.

Mr. Drew.

[chuckles]

Oh, can I get you
some refreshment?

A brandy, I think.

Brandy? Oh. Two
brandies, please.

Mr. Fitzwilliam told me you'd
be back on the last train.

I saw you at the station,
and I followed you in here.

Have no fear I was followed.

My charge is in bed, and the
gentlemen are playing cards.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Prost, as Count
Krempelstein would say.

Well, Miss Baines, I'm
very glad you've met me.

I have a rather important matter

that I wish to discuss with you.

When I'd heard you'd
gone to London,

I had an idea there might be.

If I may say so, your intuition
is very highly developed.

Oh, yes.

- Well, my information
concerns Miss Graham. - Hmm?

Have you ever heard Krempelstein
or Davidoff speak of her?

I'm afraid not.

But you will recall
that at the hunt

they appeared to pay
particular attention to her.

Yes, they did, indeed.

And she had a secret
meeting with Krempelstein

later that same afternoon.

Oh? What was the
purpose of that meeting?

It appears she has some
documents they're after.

Has or had?

Miss Baines, what do you mean?

Of course, you've been
in London all day.

- You won't have heard.
- Heard what?

I think we should
leave, Mr. Drew.

Oh.

Thank you very much.

One of our servants told me
that at the Fitzwilliam house this afternoon,

there has been a burglary

and it was only Miss Graham's
room which was ransacked.

Miss Baines, go on.

Count Krempelstein is leaving
for Germany tomorrow, alone.

And Davidoff?

He is remaining here.

Miss Baines, this information
is of great value.

We had better leave separately.

Krempelstein must be searched
before he leaves Dover.

[bell chiming]

[dogs barking]

Miss Graham.

Miss Graham?

Miss-

Snakebite?

[scoffs] It's absurd.

So it would seem.

Nevertheless,
all indications are

that she died of a
particularly virulent poison

that entered her bloodstream.

But how?

There's a swelling on the
right side of her neck.

a small puncture, as
though she'd been stung.

It is conceivable this is where

and how the poison
entered her body.

Oh, my God, poor Beatrice.

Why ever did she
not call for help?

Well, in seconds, she
would have been paralyzed

and within minutes, dead.

I'm sorry, but I
don't understand.

How could it have happened?

Well, that, Mr. Fitzwilliam,

is for the police to decide.

Now, sir, would
you kindly tell me

how you came to discover
the unfortunate occurrence

when you were
supposed to be in bed?

I couldn't sleep.

So I got up, I came down into
the library to get a book.

I saw that the front
windows were open,

so I thought perhaps a burglar.

I came out onto the terrace.

And I found Miss Graham
slumped on the seat.

How long was it before
you raised the alarm?

Immediately when I found
that I couldn't wake her.

Did you see anyone else around?

- No.
- Or hear anything suspicious?

Sir?

If I had done, I
would have told you.

Mm-hmm. Thank you
very much, sir.

Oh, there is just
one more thing.

You wouldn't be thinking of
leaving here, would you, sir?

It is possible I may be
called to London on business.

Mm, well, I don't think my
superiors would like that,

you being the
vital witness, sir.

Well, I can be contacted

through my superiors
at the Foreign Office.

Foreign Office?

Mm, in Whitehall.

It's just across the
road from Scotland Yard.

Oh, I see.

Sir, right.

I'm sorry to have
to question you

at a time like this, Bellingham.

But I'm sure you're as anxious
to apprehend the murderer

as we are.

I'd gladly give my life to
see him brought to justice.

I trust we can accomplish
it without that.

She was a very, very delightful
young woman, Bellingham.

You have my deepest sympathy.

Thank you.

Just tell me how I
can help avenge her.

She had in her
possession a document.

Now, do you know what it was?

- No.
- But she wrote to you about it in the letter she left for you

when she departed for England.

I have all her letters.

There's no mention of a
document in any of them.

I have all her letters.

There is one other
letter, Bellingham,

supposedly written by you,
which we found in her handbag.

What is that?

An appointment, my lord, to
meet a messenger from Bellingham

at midnight on the terrace
of the Fitzwilliam house.

But I know nothing
of this letter.

It's a fake.

So, this is how they
lured her to her death?

Yes, without doubt.

The men responsible,
where are they?

Krempelstein has
returned to Germany.

He was searched
before he left Dover.

There was no document
in his possession

that would have
justified murder.

And the other one?

Davidoff? He's still here.

We're having him watched.

It's incredible.

I'm sure I caught a
glimpse of him that night.

I'm almost sure it was Davidoff.

I cannot imagine

what Beatrice could have
obtained that they wanted.

Forgive me, Bellingham.
I have to ask you this.

You gave her no papers?

You have my word on it.

Then had she any other
contacts in Petersburg,

from whom she could have
obtained documents of value?

Her work brought her into touch

with many of the leading
families in Petersburg,

- but I cannot think-
- Which families?

I can't name them all.

She was a costumier.

The shop she worked for

served so many ladies
of quality in the city.

Bellingham, for instance?

The embassies, Madame
Zouboff, Countess Markov,

Princess Korolkoff.

Korolkoff?

Yes.

Did she have occasion
to go to their house?

As a matter of fact,
she was due there the day after I left for Berlin.

Good God.

The princess must have been

one of the last
customers she visited.

What is it, my lord?

I've just received information
from the Foreign Office.

A draft of the new
Russo-German treaty is missing.

It was taken from the
house of Prince Korolkoff,

director of the private
chancellery of the tsar.

And you think that Beatrice-

Why else would both
Russia and Germany

send their top
men to pursue her?

What is it, Hargreaves?

- It's for you.
- Oh, thank you.

With your permission.

It'll be best if you take
a vacation, Bellingham.

Then we'll find
you a new posting.

You're most
considerate, my lord.

But above all, I would
appreciate a chance to assist

in bringing her
murderers to justice.

Then that chance you shall have.

- Damn!
- What is it?

- Davidoff has escaped.
- What?

This letter's from Miss Baines.

It appears he's
got away to Paris.

Paris? Then we've lost him.

No, no, no, we haven't
quite, my lord.

She says he'll be staying
at the Hotel Terminus

at the Gare Saint-Lazare.

How can Miss Baines be sure?

Miss Baines also
happens to be in Paris.

She took leave from her employer
to visit a sick relative,

and she followed him.

Then there's no time to lose.

To Paris at once.

Bellingham will go
with you as your aide.

[train whistle blows]

I feel bad about
missing her funeral.

But I'd feel worse if
that villain got away.

Bellingham, the work we do
is the work she started.

I'm sure Beatrice would
understand and approve.

Yes.

- Drew?
- Yes?

No one has yet told me.

How exactly did she die?

Well, we found a pin
inserted in her wrap,

impregnated with
a deadly poison.

Davidoff was hoping that when
she went out onto the terrace

in the cold night air,

she would quite automatically

pull the fur wrap
around her neck,

which is precisely what she did.

So, that's how he did it.

Yes.

But how did he get the pin
there in the first place?

[train whistle blows]

They had been entertained

by Davidoff earlier
in the evening.

The pin was obviously inserted

while she was a
guest in his house.

[lively orchestral music]

I'm very glad my charge is not
here to observe this meeting.

Fraulein Krempelstein?

Indeed! If she reported
this to the count,

we should lose your valuable
service, Miss Baines.

Actually, I was thinking
more of my reputation.

Oh, in Paris, you need
have no fear, Miss Baines.

The French are notoriously
tolerant in these matters.

I'm well aware of
that, Mr. Drew,

and for our business,
it is fortunate.

However, I must confess,

it is one aspect of
the French character

of which I thoroughly
disapprove.

Oh, dear, now you're
talking as a governess.

Mr. Drew, I am talking
as an Englishwoman.

I beg your pardon.

[clears throat]

Last night, Davidoff met a
man named Laval, L-a-v-a-l,

who is attached to the
French secret service.

Davidoff has offered to sell him

the copy of the
Russo-German treaty

for, mm, 100,000 francs.

But that is astonishing,
Miss Baines!

Why should Davidoff
turn traitor?

The man is a notorious gambler.

To leave Russia would also
be to leave debts behind

his salary could
never hope to pay.

And you witnessed this meeting?

I was fortunate enough

to secure a seat in
the cafe, well-hidden,

but from which I
was able to overhear

much of the conversation.

[metal clatters]

And is Davidoff still
staying in this hotel?

Room number.

- 16.
- 91.

Oh, I beg your pardon. 91.

Splendid! That's the
room next to Bellingham.

Precisely.

Davidoff is meeting Laval
later today in the cafe.

Thank you. And do you know if
the French have agreed to buy?

They're going to tell
him their decision

later this afternoon.

Ah.

Well, Monsieur Laval.

My government are prepared
to pay the money you asked,

providing we can be satisfied
that the treaty is genuine.

I had no doubt that that
would be your answer.

Yes, but the proof?

[train whistle blows]

I have torn the
Kaiser's signature

from the bottom of the document.

You may take it
and have it proved.

When you have done so,
bring the money to me.

Then we can match this tear
with the bottom of the treaty.

That should satisfy you

that you are getting
what you have paid for.

I accept.

We'll meet again tomorrow.

Make it this evening.

I have a couchette on the
midnight train to Madrid.

Very well.

[coins clinking]

I'll meet you here about 10:00.

And if you take my advice,

you will stay in your room
for the rest of the day.

Why?

I have just seen a British
agent in the foyer.

- What agent?
- He's known in France as Monsieur Drew.

Drew. William Drew.

Here he goes under
the name of Gustave,

but I understand his
real name is William.

I know the man well.

I am grateful to you
for your information.

Pas du tout.

If your document is genuine,

I shouldn't like to lose
it to the British, huh?

Till tonight, then.

Garcon.

That gentleman over there
needs his bill quick, please.

What?

Oh, for heaven's sake,
man, I've already paid you.

[man speaking in
foreign language]

There!

[keys clinking]

And, Mr. Bellingham,
an experienced agent

does not leave his bill
unpaid until the last moment.

You'll know better next time.

Well, where is he?

I'm afraid I let him get away.

Oh, well, Bellingham,
never mind.

He'll be back.

He hasn't checked
out of the hotel,

and none of his luggage
has been removed.

You seem very confident.

I have an informant, happily,
in the French ministry.

Waiter?

At present, they're
endeavoring to establish

the authenticity
of this document

Davidoff is trying to sell.

- Waiter?
- But how long will that take?

Oh, it must be done by tonight.

He's planning to leave on the
midnight train for Madrid.

- Waiter?
- Then there's nothing we can do but wait.

[man groaning]

Aah! Aah!

[people chattering]

[groaning, coughing]

Drew?

I'll go and get the key!

[giggling]

[groaning]

Vite, mademoiselle!

Drew! Good God, what's happened?

[both speaking in
foreign language]

Steady, man, steady!

Steady!

Steady!

Ugh! Ugh! Ugh!

There. There.

Ugh! Ugh!

Come, my dear.

This is no place for
a lady of your breeding.

Garcon. Oh, garcon, a bottle
of champagne for my room,

91, the best.

Come, dear.

[breathing heavily]

Is Mr. Drew? Good heavens!

What has happened?

- He's been poisoned.
- Oh, no.

Like Beatrice.

Is he-

Davidoff must have spotted him.

No, he'll be all right.

The doctor's given
him an antidote.

Thank God for that.

But how did this happen?

With this.

It must have been
hidden in his towel.

Fortunately, he
recognized the danger and took immediate action

to prevent the poison
circulating in his blood.

How long will he be like this?

I don't know. The doctor
said he must not be moved.

Then we must work without him.

Yes.

Where is that swine now?

He's gone to his
room with a person.

We must think of a plan.

I have a plan.
I'm going to kill him.

No, Bellingham.

Mr. Drew, thank heavens.

How do you feel?

[breathing heavily]

Awful.

Don't worry about Davidoff.
I'll take care of him.

No, no, I, I plan to visit him.

Since I cannot go to
him, he must come to me.

- Fetch him.
- But-

Do as Mr. Drew says!

[breathing heavily]

Very well.

Is there anything
I can get for you?

Glass of water.

Oh, thank you.

Oh.

Oh, thank you.

Are you sure you
feel strong enough?

I have to be, Miss Baines.

There's too much at stake.

Get in!

No doubt you're surprised to
find me still alive, Davidoff.

It was very silly of you

to try to work the
same trick twice.

I do not understand what
you're talking about.

Please don't let us waste time.

I want the document you
took from Miss Graham.

Document?

The document you are now
trying to sell to France.

What document?

The gentleman standing behind
you is Miss Graham's fianc�.

I'm sure it would give him
the greatest satisfaction

to shoot you.

So, you have your choice,
the document or your life.

No!

I think yes.

Where is it?

[laughs]

This is it.

Very well. Bellingham,
let him go.

No! I can't!

Mr. Bellingham, we
always obey orders.

Now, go before I change my mind!

Why didn't you let me kill him?

Death is too quick

and too merciful for
a scoundrel like that.

I have informed the
Russian agents here

that he has turned traitor.

As he leaves the hotel,
he will be arrested.

He will spend the
rest of his life

in the terrible prison below
the Lake of Schusselburg.

Schusselburg.

Schusselburg?

[breathing heavily]

Schusselburg.

[gasping]

Miss Baines!

- Mr. Drew!
- William!

[gurgling]

[exhales deeply]

William?

Mr. Drew?

[intense dramatic music]
