All language subtitles for Agatha Christies Partners in Crime 2015 S01E02 The Secret Adversary Part 2 no hi

I've worked in a few places.

Perhaps our paths
have crossed before.

Perhaps they have.

Who the hell is that?

You might think twice
before you do that.

And tell me why.

He's Drennan.

You're Drennan?

Go on.
Tell him.

-I'm...
-Clement Drennan?

-It's no big deal.
-No big deal.

The man with the money.

Why the hell didn't you say?

Look! Who is it?

A friend of mine.

What friend?

A judge friend.
Is that a crime?

A judge?

Rita!
Are you mad?

He likes opera, and he likes me.
What's wrong with that?

He's a fan?

He's a man of education
and taste.

And he's dead if he interferes.

Mrs. Vandemeyer?

Are you there?

Hide this, then.

Something to get close
to our American friend.

Put it in his coffee.

- Rita? Are you all right?
- Go down the fire escape.

Rita?

Just coming, James.

Rita.

Come in.

Oh, James.

You said you'd been
practicing for something.

I'm dying to know.

It's a secret -- I told you.

Secret -- between friends?

Best china.
All the trimmings.

Where

I sang the aria in Act 4
to perfection.

Oh.
Thank you.

-Thank you.
-The overture is a touch fast.

But never mind.

Do sit down.

Take a seat, Mr. Drennan.

Thank you.

Clement Drennan.

Well, well, well.

We meet at last.

Brown has kept you very quiet.

Mmm.
"Ah."

Don't you worry, Mr. Drennan.

We'll look after you.

Oh.
Thank you.

We're here to look after you.
I'm Trixie.

-Hello.
-We're gonna have so much fun.

Excuse me.

So, what we doing, half an hour
or the full works?

Uh, have you seen this girl?

She's been missing for weeks.

She needs my help.

You aren't Drennan, are you?

No.

I'm just a friend.

Well, there's something
going on.

They've got a new girl
in the basement

that we're not allowed to see.

I got a thump
for even asking about her.

- Annette? Annette!
- Room 10.

You have to go through 9
to get at it.

Mr. Drennan?!

Ah.
There you are.

Thought we lost you.

Mr. Drennan's our new boy.

Acting for the Soviet contact.

So...look smart!

Treat him nice.

And, Annette,
fix us some drinks, will you?

Pleased to meet you.

Cigarette?

Oh.
Thank you.

You lot could learn
from Mr. Drennan.

I mean, we all could.

Brown says you're
one of the best criminal minds

in the country.

-Well, I wouldn't go that far.
-Nonsense.

That's why you're here.

Brown says the assassination
is just the start.

We've got to be ready
for what comes after.

I thought I'd told you
to fix some drinks.

Let's have some music.

This yours?

Ah.

Give it some thought, all right?

Please.

Fancy a little game
of something?

Get to know each other?

Gin rummy all right for you?

Double stakes?

Yeah.
Fine.

What about those bloody drinks?

All right, boys.

Eyes down, gents.

All right, boss. Feeling lucky?

Always.

How's Archer Street?
Still sweet?

Very nice, thank you. Yes.

Ready?

As I'll ever be.

Don't skin me too bad, will you?

Excuse me. I need to go
and use the lavatory.

Oi.

Khazi's this way.

I stumbled in.
They think I'm this man.

Lucky for you, the real Drennan

can't get a train down
till tomorrow.

I took the call.

Well, if you show me
the front door, I'll --

You'll what?

I'll leave.

Nah.

I can see some fun here.

What do you mean?

I work for the highest bidder.

If you want me to stay quiet,
it's gonna cost you.

You'd better lose the ring.

Drennan ain't married.

And lighten up a bit, hmm?

Khazi's downstairs.

Excuse me for a moment, James.

I was
attracting admirers
from far

I,
of course,
had my
fair share...

Bloody hell.

Oh, you...

Kelly?
Is that you?

Just your cat.

Must be terrible to be a maid.

No better prospects.

I like it.

I wasn't asking
whether you liked it.

I was just remarking
what a blight it is.

People like you.
The bottom of the heap.

You should thank me.

Thank you?

For picking you up
from the gutter,

giving you a job.

Thank you.

- James?
- Oh, there you are.

Do you remember La Scala
in 1939?

All right, sweetie?

Jane?

Jane?

Jane.

Jane.

I can see I'm gonna need to keep
my eye on you.

Can you open this door?

You don't seem to be listening.
Your time's up.

Now, if you want me to keep
your little secret,

you'd better start looking
to pay me, hmm?

And I hope you're feeling
loaded,

'cause there's that cash they're
expecting from Drennan, too.

What cash?

You really need to do
your homework

before you go 'round
impersonating people.

He's bringing money down from
the Soviet contact up north.

Hmm?

Oh.

You're in a lot of trouble,
aren't you?

What are you doing?

I'm doing you a favor.

Someone wants to ask him
a few questions.

I told you to look after him.

Where's the money?
Anyone asked him that?

He brought me down here.
Said you were holding some girl.

I never said that.

I don't know what is going on,
but there's something not right.

Yeah.
We have had our suspicions.

-Now, wait a minute.
-This room's out of bounds.

He's lying.
Don't look at me like that.

Search him.

You've got this
the wrong way 'round.

-I'm Brown's man!
-Brown doesn't think so.

Brown says you're just working
for yourself --

any chance to grab
a bit of extra cash.

It's not mine!
I got it from him!

He's having us on!
He's not who he says he is!

I've never seen that before.

He's lying.

I'm telling you -- He's lying.

Always knew there was something
about you, McKeown.

Always.

Conrad, do your worst.

I'm sorry you had to see that.

Now, about this £1,000.

I was told to meet you first...
bring it tomorrow.

All right.

Let's drink to that.

As you can see,
we run a very tight ship here.

But even a ship needs oiling.

I'll
never forget
the way

The audience was transfixed.

Don't be alarmed.

Must be strange
working for a woman like Rita.

Only she'd better not
catch you snooping.

Sir.

James Peel, KC.

I think you'd better take
my card, don't you?

Or do I need to use
Carter's code word?

200.
All out.

You're working for Carter?

There are lots of us
looking for Brown.

And Rita may well be the key.

Brown's been in contact
with her.

-She got a package.
-What sort of package?

Oh.
There you are.

I was just asking your maid
if she'd hail me a taxi.

I see.

I'll get one for you right away,
sir.

Sorry I have to leave so soon.

It's been a wonderful afternoon.

Oh. It's you.

Yes.
Surprised?

A little.

I'm just on my way to pick up
some papers from court.

Walk with me.

So Carter kept quiet about you.

What are you --
Foreign Office, MI5?

Not as such.

That's what I wanted to talk
to you about.

And Rita is unaware?

For the moment, yes.

But the second you tell
Major Carter,

he'll put a stop to it.

I just think as her maid,

I can see things,
I can overhear things.

Probably getting nearer than me.
I actually hate opera.

Ballet is much more my thing.

Brown has already made contact
with her.

And the message said something
about "our American friend."

Could that be the target?

All right.
You have another day.

But as soon as you get
anything concrete,

we have to go to Carter.

Report to me often,
and the minute you feel unsafe

-and out of your depth --
-Absolutely.

And here's a tip
about our friend Rita --

She likes a gin
in the afternoon.

Sometimes she sleeps.

Thank you.

Top-up, Mr. Drennan?

Yeah. Yeah. That's all right.

That's all right.
No.

I'm not having that.
I'm not having it.

But these guys don't think
we can do it.

Brown has to be
the one that pulls the trigger.

Any one of us could.

It's the way
the Soviets want it.

But what happens when the CIA
realize they've lost their man?

We'll be nowhere near.

Right, Drennan?

Right.

About time.

I think I should do it.

This key will get you
into room 10.

Had enough?

Uh, no.
I was just --

I have -- more than enough.

You know,
you're not what I expected.

But I like you.

Tomorrow.

Come on.
One for the road.

Shh.

Shh.

What time is it?

It's late.

Firstly, you've been drinking,

and we promised
we wouldn't drink on the job.

Secondly, I've been so worried
about you.

Unbelievable.

Ooh!

Slowly.

Get off!

Plan B?

Absolutely.

Are you completely insane?

At least you're awake!

I feel like I'm in trouble.

Why, actually, am I in trouble?

You aren't in trouble.

You have lipstick
on your collar.

You reek of perfume.

You

Lipstick?
Where is --

-Now -- Now, wait a minute.
-I'm waiting.

It was...one of those places --
you know.

I don't know.

One of those...Soho places.

Oh, Tuppence, think about it.

I
am
thinking about it.

I am thinking about it
very hard.

Oh.

They're not putting Jane Finn
to work?

No.
It just a place where they meet.

There's a room in the basement.

That's where they're holding
Jane.

Did you see her?

Just her back.
But it's definitely her.

I couldn't get through the door,
but now I have...this.

How did you get that?

One of the, uh...
you know -- one of the girls.

She was...

-...very friendly and --
-Was she?

They thought I was
this guy Drennan, and...

Could you pass the towel?

So, what have we got?

The recording is still out there
and hidden.

Otherwise they would have killed
Jane already.

That's something.
Uh, what about the target?

He's American.

Rita got a message from Brown
about an "American friend."

An American, then.
Do we know any more?

Rita was sent a package
to help get close to him.

I think its poison.

They're using Rita?

Where's your wedding ring?

Drennan isn't married, so it...

Damn.

Where is the damned thing?

-It was here somewhere.
-I hope you haven't lost it.

Of course I haven't lost it!
I just...

Did something else happen
in that house

that you haven't told me about?

Maybe you should go
and lie down.

Tuppence, do you think
we might be out of our depth?

Why do you say that?

These men.

They're dangerous...vile.

They...

What happened in there?
You don't seem yourself.

I'm fine.
I just...

We have to be brave, then.

Our country needs us
to stop Brown.

And just think of
that poor girl.

Yes.

Quite.

I just had a thought.

What sort of thought?

About the target being American.

The U.S. secretary of state
is flying into the country

the day after tomorrow.

Could he be the target?

That's it.

Well, if you are right,

the consequences could be
very alarming.

The death of the secretary
of state while in Britain

would ruin relations
with America.

And in this nuclear age --

Well, the whole reason
for his being here

is to sign a treaty
of mutual cooperation.

So Brown's timing is impeccable.

It's dreadful.

If the CIA get wind
even of the threat,

well, the visit will be called
off and the treaty abandoned.

Is there some sort of connection
with opera?

How do you know that?

That's supposed to be a secret.

But y-yes, yes.
He's opera mad.

He likes to take in
a performance

every time he comes over.

And Rita Vandemeyer is singing.

The famous soprano.

Uh, there is a soprano,
uh, booked.

That's how Brown
is going to get to him.

Well, thank you.

Clearly I'm going to have to act
on this information.

But, uh, no more, Tommy.

You -- You go home now.

He has to go back in
before the real Drennan arrives.

Are you out of your mind?
Absolutely not.

No.
He's a father, for God's sake.

And a -- And a husband.

No, no.
I've got it covered.

He's never going to pass
for this man Drennan.

He has already.

They've got a girl in that room
in the basement.

-If it's Jane --
-You don't know that it's Jane.

This needs to be handled
professionally, and I will --

He's got one chance
if he can go back in tonight.

All we need is some support.

Out of the question.

I will get a trained operative
in there.

She will be long dead by then,
Uncle.

Thomas and Tuppence Beresford,
will you listen to me?

I am saying no!

And that is absolutely the end
of it!

Third Floor will handle it
from here.

We'll find that girl
and the recording.

Um, I hear George is --
is playing Eton on Saturday.

Many fine cricketers at Eton.

Yes.

I had a mind to go down.

We could go together
in the motor, take a picnic.

That would be nice.

Clement Drennan
is
well known to the Third Floor.

Uncle Carter's holding back
on us.

If he won't let us do it
the official way...

What choice do we have?

Seems he runs a string
of nightclubs up north.

History of money laundering.

Major and minor offenses.

Alcoholic.

He's been in prison
for extortion and GBH.

Are you sure you can do this?

I just have to get through
the door and into that room.

If we can delay the real Drennan
from arriving, that is --

and get the money.

Yes.
Any thoughts on that?

Plenty. Now, come on.
We've got a train to meet.

Now, one pill should give you
about eight hours.

Two should give you a full day.

And no lasting consequences?

Uh, none that I've come across.

It's still in
the experimental stages.

Right.

That's him.

And what's the first
thing any alcoholic does

after a six-hour journey?

Walks into a pub.

- Maybe he sobered up.
- Wait for it.

Wait for it.

Come on.

Come on.

Yes!

Still on the juice, then.

Good luck.

Your prices are outrageous.
Daylight robbery.

Oh!
I'm so glad to see you.

I was sat behind you
on the train.

I think we were in the war
together -- Was it North Africa?

Bugger off.

Are you sure?
I...I could have sworn.

Only there's a few of us,
a-and we like to meet up, so --

Listen, I don't know what your
problem is, sunshine, but --

- Oh!
- What the hell?!

Terribly sorry!
I'm so clumsy!

Did I get anything on you?

Is there nowhere a man can drink
his pint in peace?

Well done.

Good night, Mr. Drennan.

Sweet dreams.

Here.
Help you with that.

You're an angel.

In fact, I think you're
my
angel.

Help! Help!

-What's going on?
-He just grabbed me!

Well, she's from above.

Oh!
Look at those little fairies.

Right. That's enough of that.
Inside, you.

You're the one from heaven!

Do you think he'll ever go back
to normal?

I don't know.

We'd better tell Albert
it has that effect.

He'll be a while in the cells,
though.

You're ingenious.
You know that?

Getting into my stride.

What?

Let me see.

Where is it?

-Watch out for the fairies.
-Come on, boy.

Bloody hell!

You seen what he's got
in his pockets?

-Damn it.
-I can't go back in without it.

We need to find £1,000!

I know.
I'm thinking. I'm thinking.

He said if we had any expenses.

Well, it's rather more
than expenses.

This is all about finding
his niece, remember.

Plus he
is
a millionaire.

-Maybe I should handle this.
-Why?

I just think matters like this
are better handled by a man.

Don't be absurd.

Well, all right.

I think he can be
a bit too friendly --

a bit too American,
if you know what I mean.

-I don't know what you mean.
-You know exactly what I mean.

Americans are all the same.
Any sight of a pretty woman.

Rich coming from a man who spent
a night in a house in Soho.

So that's why
you're being funny.

I'm not being funny.

Hey.

You can't park there.

Tuppence.
I've been trying to ring you.

Any news?

Not yet, but we're hopeful.

I think we could be close
to a breakthrough.

-But if Jane is in there --
-If we go in all guns blazing,

-it'll get us nowhere.
-But she's my niece.

So be outside.

Tommy needs someone
to keep watch,

and then,
when he brings Jane out --

You want me to stand and wait

whilst Tommy takes the money
into the house?

I know it isn't
what you're used to.

But Tommy
is
a professional.

Tommy?

Professional?

Mm.

Tommy!
There you are.

Hi.

Well, can you come over here?

Not really.
No.

Tommy.

Julius.
How are you?

He's going to help us.
That's how he is.

We're all going to work together
till we get Jane out.

Isn't that great?

Whoever did that
needs a jolly good hiding.

Shall we?

How could you
have agreed to that?

What was I supposed to say?

He is stumping up £1,000.

To get

We led him to believe
we were private investigators.

That was your idea.

You brought Albert
onto the team.

Why is this different?

Albert is a nice person.

Albert is modest.

We need someone
to be your backup.

He's just so damn American,

full of how rich he is
and what he can spend it on.

Is that what this is about?

Well, what is it
you British say?

Let's get cracking.

Julius is going to Soho
with you, Tommy.

I'm expected at Rita's
in an hour.

Right.
I'll keep an eye on the time.

Ten minutes, all right?

Well, not literally 10 minutes.

You said 10.

Listen, working together
was Tuppence's idea.

How much time do you need?

I just need you to be accurate.

Thirty minutes.

And then I'll call the police.

Agreed.

I mean, you do understand
how this works.

I am the private detective,
and you are the client.

Don't lose the money.

Taxi!

What?

I'm here to meet
the Spanish cousin.

All right.

-The money.
-Ah. Yes.

It's all accounted for.

Oi. What the hell
do you think you're doing?

Who gave you that key?

I, um...

Oh, you have got some explaining
to do, haven't you?

Absolutely. Of course.

What an unexpected pleasure.

I don't want gin.

I have an important visitor
arriving.

I want you out of the way
and not under my feet.

Shall I lay the tea things?

No.
It's all done.

Just complete the chapter.
No distractions.

All I want to hear from you
is the sound of your typewriter.

Thank you, Albert.

[

Kelly?

Did I say you could take
a break?

Just blowing my nose,
Mrs. Vandemeyer.

Well, don't.
Blow it on your own time.

Absolutely!
Won't blow it again!

[

Bloody animal.

Another break?

The cat was meowing, so I came
to see what the matter was.

Oh, Henry.

Yeah.
He seems very unhappy.

Maybe he's hungry.

I just fed him.

What are you doing with my keys?

The typewriter was jammed,

so I needed something
to lever it open with.

[

You never were a maid.

You were always here
to spy on me.

You're going to poison
the U.S. secretary of state.

I've never heard anything
so preposterous!

Rita! It's me!

I'll hand you over to Brown.
He'll get the truth out of you.

I'll tell him you told me
all your little secrets

and I didn't even have to ask --
the leaves in the locked room!

Oh, you stay in there
and keep your trap shut!

-I'll deal with you later!
-You can't do this.

Any noise and it won't be me
you're dealing with.

You know, the funny thing is...
I could almost like you.

But Brown.

That's the thing about Brown.

He sees things
before anyone else.

He anticipates things.

He says, "Scratch your ear."

And, "Oh, my God," you think.
"I've got an itchy ear."

He says sneeze.

Away you go.

Do you get what I mean?

So why would Brown send me...

...this?

Maybe you have a leak somewhere.

Maybe it's something
you need to fix.

You know...
I think you got it in one.

Rita, are you mad?

Brown thinks you've said
too much to someone.

Just nerves.
I haven't said anything!

That judge was here.

A friend.

A friend who loves opera.

He could have warned someone.

I am fed up with this scrutiny.

Why don't you ever do
as you're told?

I'm going to enjoy this.

Kelly.

Kelly!
Open the door.

What have you done to the door?

Kelly, open the door.

- Kelly, open the door.
- Move out the way.

I'll break it down.

Hey!

29 minutes and 31 seconds.

32 Mississippi.

33 Mississippi.

34 Mississippi.

Oh, the hell with this.

Yes.
Police?

3-7 Oak...

Um, can I speak to
Major Carter -- Anthony Carter?

Yes, it's urgent.

Don't touch me!

- Is it -- Is it Jane?
- Shut up.

Get in there.

Come on, then.

Is there -- Is there a girl
named Jane there?

Get off me!

Get off me!

You almost have to laugh.

You almost have to laugh.

Get in the van!

I said you almost have to laugh.

All those blokes,
trousers around their ankles.

Chuck him in there!
Cheeky sod!

Sorry, sir. Stay back, sir.
Stay back, please.

-Please stay back, sir.
-I'm the guy that called you.

-Please, sir.
-Okay. Okay.

-Thank you.
-Okay. All right.

Get off me!

There goes the cavalry.

Now...where were we?

Let me see Jane again.

No.

You tell me something first.

Who was your in?

Was it Rita?

She our mole?

I'll never tell you that.

Oh, I think you might.

I found the poison
Brown sent Rita.

You realize, Tuppence,
we haven't even started

on what the hell you were doing.

I understand that, Major.

-But I think maybe we should --
-What?

Just skip over the pure
bloody bollocking you deserve?

Pardon my French, James.

Shall I?

Yeah.

Perhaps I should talk.

Oh, run the whole operation,
why don't you?

No. I just mean she thinks
I'm a friend of hers.

Mrs. Vandemeyer?

Mrs. Vandemeyer?

Just passing.
Thought I'd say hello.

Mrs. Vandemeyer?

Do you want me to break it down?

It's a pretty sturdy
door, James.

Hold on.

Jane Finn's hairpin.

Where did you learn that trick?

Girl Guides.

Everyone did.

You wait here.

Rita?

Oh, Jesus.

Damn.

I'm sorry you had to see that.

Why -- because I'm a housewife

or because it was
an unpleasant thing to see?

I just meant...

No.
I'm sorry.

I think you're anything
but a housewife, I have to say.

From everything I've seen,

Carter is mad not to put you
on his books properly.

Hasn't done us any good,
though, has it?

We're no nearer.

Something may be found here
that will help.

If Rita was in contact
with Brown, as you say --

Look around.

There'll be nothing.

I feel like I'm beginning
to understand him.

He isn't a man
that likes to leave any trace.

In fact,
he's always two steps ahead.

Well, he has been so far.

Oh, God.

What?

Tommy.

Who's Tommy?

My husband.

If -- If Brown knew about Rita,
then...

What about Tommy?

He's in the house in Soho.

The one I explicitly told him
not to go back to?

Yes, that one.

What kind of
"this is too dangerous"

do you two not understand?

Who is it?
Who's there?

You don't have long.

There's a space on the roof.
Connects to another building.

-What about Jane?
-She kept saying "Anassa."

Wait.
What's Anassa?

They're moving her.
That's all I know.

It was you who replied to our
advertisement in the newspaper.

The watch. The photographs.
It was you.

Yes, but no more.

Do you want me to get killed?

Julius, where's Tommy?

Exactly -- Where is Tommy?

-What happened?
-I don't know what happened.

I called the police
like you told me to.

The police couldn't find Tommy
or Jane.

-So where are they?
-I don't know where they are!

You're more stupid
than we thought.

You've run out of friends.

Excuse me, sir.

You see what'll happen.

So, you gonna try
and save her now, eh?

Get her in the car, will you?

What about him?

Brown says
I was to deal with him here.

-He isn't coming with us?
-No.

Just move it!

Come on.

Right.

Let's go through this
one more time, shall we?

The recording.

How much do you know?

What are you -- 6'1", 6'2"?

Heavy build.

Well, not too heavy,
but...not too light.

There's an art to this,
you know.

Hold him.

Any last words?

Pretty thoughts?

Please.

I have a wife, a son.

Oh, haven't we all?

Keep still or I'll get
the measurements all wrong,

make it last longer.

What?

Damn it!

Answer it!
I can't concentrate now.

Yep.

It's Brown.

Watch him.

Yes?

Yes. All right.
Will do.

Seems your luck is in,
Mr. Beresford.

What's happening now?

Find him.

Oh.

What do you want?

We want Mr. Beresford
to feel nice and motivated.

Why?

Brown's got a job for you.

And you'll do it...

if you love your son.

Anassa?
