101
00:06:31,760 --> 00:06:34,240
some rather
unpleasant developments

102

taking place in the real world.

103
00:06:38,560 --> 00:06:43,646

but with very little respect
for anything,

Now, all people of good sense,

can see that war
right across Europe is imminent.

will we expect women

to merely keep the home fires
burning, Mr. President...

equal status,

250 pounds to my lawyer,
John Siddaway,

Their son, Peter Baker,
and young Robert Siddaway

to give them a start in life.

leaving everything to Violet.

Perhaps a postmortem
will tell us more.

00:18:33,400 --> 00:18:35,323
There's no call
for a postmortem.

345

I've examined the body.

346

Andrew died

As your know, Monsieur Poirot,

00:20:19,000 --> 00:20:22,004
it's not usual to read
a will before the funeral,

372

I've made an exception,

Madam and monsieur,

389
00:21:30,120 --> 00:21:33,806
Andrew Marsh was a good friend
to all of us here in this room,

390
00:21:34,080 --> 00:21:37,209
and yet it seems that you wish
his death to pass unquestioned.

391
00:21:37,520 --> 00:21:38,965
Not all of us, Mr. Poirot.

392
00:21:39,240 --> 00:21:40,526
And now we have
a disappearing will,

393
00:21:40,800 --> 00:21:42,564
and still you do nothing,
Sergeant.

394
00:21:42,840 --> 00:21:46,083
With respect, Poirot, I think
you're reading too much into it.

395
00:21:46,360 --> 00:21:48,442
Indeed.

396
00:21:48,760 --> 00:21:51,366
The new will that Andrew Marsh
intended to write

397
00:21:51,680 --> 00:21:55,207
would have left everything
to Mademoiselle Violet

398
00:21:55,520 --> 00:21:57,363
with Poirot as executor.

399
00:21:59,000 --> 00:22:00,411
Very well;
I will execute.

400
00:22:00,720 --> 00:22:01,642
But beware, mes amis.

401
00:22:01,920 --> 00:22:03,809
For in so doing,
with or without your help,

402
00:22:04,080 --> 00:22:07,050
I will unravel
the mystery of his death.

403
00:22:17,280 --> 00:22:20,682
This is intolerable, Hastings.

404
00:22:20,960 --> 00:22:22,769
We are dealing
with a close-knit community,

405
00:22:23,040 --> 00:22:25,122

is known to all,

00:22:27,000 --> 00:22:28,240
Yet.

408
00:22:28,560 --> 00:22:29,527
Just a second, Poirot.

409
00:22:29,800 --> 00:22:31,040
That missing will
could be a godsend.

410
00:22:31,320 --> 00:22:32,526
It'll mean Andrew died
intestate.

411
00:22:32,800 --> 00:22:34,450
Thank you for
that note of optimism, Hastings.

412
00:22:34,760 --> 00:22:36,364
But all you have to do
is tell the probate court

413
00:22:36,680 --> 00:22:38,284
that Andrew wanted Violet
to have everything.

414
00:22:38,600 --> 00:22:40,045
And you think
that they will accept that?

415
00:22:40,320 --> 00:22:42,288
The wishes of Andrew Marsh
told to me in confidence

00:22:44,720 --> 00:22:46,290
Oh, I see.

418

Uh, Poirot.

419
00:22:48,200 --> 00:22:49,929

I want you to know that
I am the major beneficiary

423
00:22:59,760 --> 00:23:00,921
of Andrew's missing will

424
00:23:01,200 --> 00:23:04,363
as chairman
of the Ellen Ford Foundation,

425
00:23:04,680 --> 00:23:07,126
in case you get the wrong end
of the stick.

426
00:23:07,400 --> 00:23:10,961
I have no stick by either end,
Monsieur Doctor.

427
00:23:11,240 --> 00:23:12,685
Yes,
but you might reasonably think

428
00:23:12,960 --> 00:23:15,884
that 75% of the Marsh estate
is worth killing for,

429
00:23:16,160 --> 00:23:18,367
and Andrew was going to make
a new will, you said.

430
00:23:18,680 --> 00:23:20,648
But you would not have stolen
the old will,

431
00:23:20,920 --> 00:23:22,684
since it favored you.

432
00:23:24,400 --> 00:23:27,210
Andrew told you he wanted
Violet to have everything,

433
00:23:27,520 --> 00:23:28,885
you said.

434
00:23:29,160 --> 00:23:30,571
Did he mention nobody else?

435
00:23:30,840 --> 00:23:31,879
No.

436
00:23:31,880 --> 00:23:33,166
Why is it that you ask?

437
00:23:34,240 --> 00:23:36,527
Because, for a long time now,

438
00:23:36,800 --> 00:23:40,964
I've believed that Andrew
had a son.

439
00:23:43,880 --> 00:23:45,848
Belief, Monsieur Doctor,
is good,

440
00:23:46,120 --> 00:23:49,090
but it is not good enough.

441
00:23:49,360 --> 00:23:53,570
Andrew, John, and myself,
we met at Crabtree one night.

442
00:23:53,840 --> 00:23:56,525
It must've been, hmm,
two years ago now.

443
00:23:56,800 --> 00:24:00,725
Sarah was away, and Robert had
just been accepted at Cambridge.

444
00:24:01,000 --> 00:24:04,049
His father was full of it,
bursting with pride.

445
00:24:04,320 --> 00:24:05,128
To Robert.

446
00:24:05,400 --> 00:24:07,519
To Robert.

447
00:24:07,520 --> 00:24:09,090
- Robert.
- Thank you.

448
00:24:09,360 --> 00:24:12,887
I'm very happy for you, John.

449
00:24:13,160 --> 00:24:15,401
Oh, forgive me, both of you.

450
00:24:15,720 --> 00:24:20,851
I rattle on as if you fellows
had sons to be proud of as well.

451
00:24:23,200 --> 00:24:28,843
What makes you think I don't
understand your pride perfectly?

452
00:24:29,120 --> 00:24:30,326
You may be my solicitor, John,

453
00:24:30,640 --> 00:24:32,768
but you don't know everything
about me.

454
00:24:33,040 --> 00:24:35,088
Does he, Maggie?

455
00:24:35,360 --> 00:24:38,648
Andrew Marsh was always
very fond of Margaret Baker.

456
00:24:38,920 --> 00:24:41,764
Maybe Peter is Andrew's son.

457
00:24:43,160 --> 00:24:44,400
I see.

458
00:24:46,520 --> 00:24:47,931
Doctor, I thank you.

459
00:24:48,200 --> 00:24:49,964
I have been stumbling around
in a darkened room,

460
00:24:50,240 --> 00:24:52,846
and now you have switched on
the light.

461
00:24:56,360 --> 00:24:58,169
You see how things go, Hastings?

462
00:24:58,440 --> 00:25:00,408
I believe that he was killed
for his fortune,

463
00:25:00,720 --> 00:25:02,245
but the question still remains:

464
00:25:02,560 --> 00:25:04,449
who would lay claim to it
once he had died?

465
00:25:04,760 --> 00:25:07,411
Well, there's that son
that Pritchard talks about.

466
00:25:07,720 --> 00:25:09,609
But then we only have his word
that he exists.

467
00:25:09,880 --> 00:25:12,929
We find the son, mon ami;
we also find the murderer.

468
00:25:13,200 --> 00:25:15,601
Soon we may have the word
of Madam Margaret Baker.

469
00:25:15,880 --> 00:25:18,008
You can't ask a woman
a question like that, Poirot.

470
00:25:18,280 --> 00:25:21,443
Not only can I, Hastings,
I must.

471
00:25:21,760 --> 00:25:23,171
Met him in Australia, sir.

472
00:25:23,440 --> 00:25:26,444
He hired me as nanny to Violet,
his business partner's child.

473
00:25:26,760 --> 00:25:27,727
And when he came to England,

474
00:25:28,000 --> 00:25:30,321
he gave me the chance
to come too.

475
00:25:30,640 --> 00:25:32,290
Which is where you met
your husband,

476
00:25:32,600 --> 00:25:35,922
the bobby of the village.

477
00:25:36,200 --> 00:25:38,851
Madam Baker, I truly wish
to cause you no offense,

478
00:25:39,120 --> 00:25:43,842
but Monsieur Andrew Marsh,
he admired you greatly,

479
00:25:44,120 --> 00:25:45,159
<i>n'est-ce pas?</i>

480
00:25:45,160 --> 00:25:48,050
Well, yes.

481
00:25:48,320 --> 00:25:50,402
And you were also
very fond of him.

482
00:25:50,720 --> 00:25:52,245
Yes.

483
00:25:52,560 --> 00:25:53,766
And perhaps
it would be true to say

484
00:25:54,040 --> 00:25:56,247
that you did not work for him as
a nanny to Mademoiselle Violet

485
00:25:56,560 --> 00:25:58,881
so much as to share in his life?

486
00:25:59,160 --> 00:26:00,605
[mumbling]

487
00:26:00,880 --> 00:26:02,405
I want to hear this.

488
00:26:02,720 --> 00:26:04,882
You're saying I might have
a claim to his fortune,

489
00:26:05,160 --> 00:26:06,082
aren't you, Mr. Poirot?

490
00:26:06,360 --> 00:26:07,805
Be quiet!

491
00:26:08,080 --> 00:26:10,686
Dad, you always said Andrew
had an eye for the ladies.

492
00:26:10,960 --> 00:26:13,725
Yes, well, in my case,
he admired from afar.

493
00:26:14,000 --> 00:26:15,525
After we came back
from Australia,

494
00:26:15,800 --> 00:26:18,690
Mr. Andrew was sent
to fight in France.

495
00:26:18,960 --> 00:26:22,806
You were conceived
while he was away.

496
00:26:23,080 --> 00:26:26,971
By the time Andrew got leave,
Peter was three months old.

497
00:26:27,240 --> 00:26:29,049
So you worked as the nanny
to Mademoiselle Violet

498
00:26:29,320 --> 00:26:31,004
while Monsieur Andrew,
he was absent?

499
00:26:31,280 --> 00:26:32,361
Yes.

500
00:26:32,680 --> 00:26:34,648
Well, his other friends
pulled their weight, of course,

501
00:26:34,920 --> 00:26:38,003
but Miss Campion's not much good
with small children,

502
00:26:38,280 --> 00:26:39,406
nor Mrs. Siddaway, come to that,

503
00:26:39,720 --> 00:26:41,210
in spite of being
a children's nurse.

504
00:26:43,520 --> 00:26:44,681
Ah.

505
00:26:46,640 --> 00:26:48,927
Thank you, madam.

506
00:26:50,920 --> 00:26:52,570
You got some gall to go
casting suspicions

507
00:26:52,840 --> 00:26:54,001
like that, Poirot.

508
00:26:54,280 --> 00:26:56,009
I have the gall,
Sergeant Baker,

509
00:26:56,280 --> 00:27:00,001
because a man has been murdered,
and you refuse to investigate.

510
00:27:00,280 --> 00:27:01,566
Very well.

511
00:27:01,840 --> 00:27:05,242
The time has now come for me
to go above your head.

512
00:27:11,840 --> 00:27:14,684
[dramatic music]

513
00:27:14,960 --> 00:27:23,289
<i>[music]</i>

514
00:27:25,720 --> 00:27:28,963
Thank you for coming,
Chief Inspector.

515
00:27:29,240 --> 00:27:30,401
You have met Sergeant Baker,
I see.

516
00:27:30,720 --> 00:27:31,721
Yes.

517
00:27:32,000 --> 00:27:33,809
I must say, Poirot,
that in spite of your comments,

518
00:27:34,080 --> 00:27:36,321
he seems like
a reliable chap to me.

519
00:27:36,640 --> 00:27:39,041
This way, Chief Inspector.

520
00:27:53,800 --> 00:27:57,850
Monsieur Marsh was discovered
here, Chief Inspector.

521
00:27:58,120 --> 00:28:00,122
No marks on the body?

522
00:28:00,400 --> 00:28:01,606
Nothing
out of the ordinary found?

523
00:28:01,880 --> 00:28:03,609
<i>Rien.</i>

524
00:28:20,920 --> 00:28:23,241
What's this, then,
if it isn't out of the ordinary?

525
00:28:24,840 --> 00:28:26,842
<i>C'est incroyable.</i>

526
00:28:27,120 --> 00:28:30,124
Looks like a medicine bottle
to me.

527
00:28:30,400 --> 00:28:33,290
I myself searched this area
but meticulously.

528
00:28:33,600 --> 00:28:35,728
Must've missed it, Poirot.

529
00:28:36,000 --> 00:28:40,005
Any of the local quacks
reported one of these missing?

530
00:28:40,280 --> 00:28:41,725
No, sir.

531
00:28:42,000 --> 00:28:43,039
Sorry, sir.

532
00:28:43,040 --> 00:28:43,882
I'll get onto it right away.

533
00:28:44,160 --> 00:28:46,367
I'll ask Dr. Pritchard.

534
00:28:46,680 --> 00:28:47,920
Pritchard?

535
00:28:48,200 --> 00:28:51,602
He's the chairman for the
Ellen Ford Medical Foundation.

536
00:28:51,880 --> 00:28:53,405
Dr. Martin Pritchard.

537
00:28:55,760 --> 00:28:56,921
Listen, Poirot.

538
00:28:57,200 --> 00:28:59,362
Don't tell people
I'm in the neighborhood yet.

539
00:29:00,760 --> 00:29:03,081
I shall need to see
the coroner's officer.

540
00:29:03,360 --> 00:29:04,566
I want a postmortem.

541
00:29:04,840 --> 00:29:07,650
I want to know what was in this.

542
00:29:09,400 --> 00:29:11,846
Miss Campion, could
you spare us a few moments?

543
00:29:12,120 --> 00:29:13,804
I am rather pressed for time,
Robert.

544
00:29:14,080 --> 00:29:15,002
Please, Phyllida.

545
00:29:15,280 --> 00:29:17,408
It's about my mother,
Miss Campion.

546
00:29:17,720 --> 00:29:18,759
[sighs]

547
00:29:18,760 --> 00:29:19,799
About me.

548
00:29:19,800 --> 00:29:21,643
About my father too, I suppose.

549
00:29:21,920 --> 00:29:24,241
Two years at King's and
you still don't make any sense,

550
00:29:24,560 --> 00:29:26,642
my dear boy,
like so many before you.

551
00:29:26,920 --> 00:29:29,685
You won't laugh when
you know the reason, Phyllida.

552
00:29:29,960 --> 00:29:32,088
Robert needs your advice.

553
00:29:32,360 --> 00:29:35,682
I think Andrew Marsh
was my father, Miss Campion.

554
00:29:38,520 --> 00:29:40,363
And you're asking me
what you should do about it?

555
00:29:40,680 --> 00:29:43,286
Why don't you ask Mr. Poirot?

556
00:29:49,440 --> 00:29:52,410
But Robert, why didn't
you mention this before today?

557
00:29:52,720 --> 00:29:56,122
My mother only told me
about it last night.

558
00:29:56,400 --> 00:29:58,528
It took some guts on her part.

559
00:29:58,800 --> 00:30:01,963
It doesn't seem to have
upset you unduly, Robert.

560
00:30:02,240 --> 00:30:06,848
Well, after some thought,
what difference does it make?

561
00:30:09,200 --> 00:30:13,125
<i>Bien,</i>Monsieur Robert,
I will tell you the difference.

562
00:30:13,400 --> 00:30:16,290
In the will that is missing,
you inherit a small fortune.

563
00:30:16,600 --> 00:30:17,965
If you can prove
you are his son,

564
00:30:18,240 --> 00:30:20,846
you will inherit a vast one.

565
00:30:34,520 --> 00:30:36,921
And now,
a son by Sarah Siddaway.

566
00:30:37,200 --> 00:30:40,329
We find the son,
we find the murderer, you said.

567
00:30:40,640 --> 00:30:42,563
Yes, indeed, Hastings.

568
00:30:42,840 --> 00:30:44,569
But it would be unseemly
to unmask him

569
00:30:44,840 --> 00:30:48,003
the day before the funeral
of Andrew Marsh.

570
00:30:50,600 --> 00:30:53,729
[church bells ring]

571
00:30:59,080 --> 00:31:01,606
The man had a lot of friends,
Poirot.

572
00:31:01,880 --> 00:31:03,325
What good are many friends,
mon ami,

573
00:31:03,640 --> 00:31:06,962
when you have one bad enemy?

574
00:31:15,560 --> 00:31:17,847
Doctor Pritchard.

575
00:31:23,920 --> 00:31:27,288
You look to be in the rudest
of health, Chief Inspector.

576
00:31:27,600 --> 00:31:30,126
You have met before?

577
00:31:30,400 --> 00:31:32,323
Would you care to fill
these gentlemen in, sir,

578
00:31:32,640 --> 00:31:35,325
or shall I?

579
00:31:35,640 --> 00:31:36,801
Very well, then.

580
00:31:37,080 --> 00:31:39,560
We met in London 15 years ago.

581
00:31:39,840 --> 00:31:41,365
Doctor Pritchard here
was running

582
00:31:41,680 --> 00:31:45,685
a so-called humanitarian group
helping the terminally ill...

583
00:31:46,320 --> 00:31:47,287
to kill themselves.

584
00:31:47,600 --> 00:31:49,170
To end their suffering,
you mean.

585
00:31:49,440 --> 00:31:50,965
We investigated
his organization,

586
00:31:51,240 --> 00:31:52,969
but couldn't prove anything.

587
00:31:53,240 --> 00:31:55,846
At a rough guess, I'd say
he's up to his old tricks again.

588
00:31:56,120 --> 00:31:57,246
No.

589
00:31:57,560 --> 00:32:01,121
Yours, Doctor,
according the manufacturer.

590
00:32:01,400 --> 00:32:03,767
They send them out
with batches of insulin-

591
00:32:04,040 --> 00:32:07,408
all numbered
so they can keep tabs on them.

592
00:32:07,720 --> 00:32:09,529
Because as well
as working miracles,

593
00:32:09,800 --> 00:32:11,962
insulin can also be lethal.

594
00:32:12,240 --> 00:32:13,844
I don't understand.

595
00:32:14,120 --> 00:32:18,728
The postmortem found needle
marks in Mr. Marsh's upper arm.

596
00:32:20,560 --> 00:32:21,607
Martin Arthur Pritchard,

597
00:32:21,880 --> 00:32:24,611
I'm arresting you
for the murder of Andrew Marsh.

598
00:32:24,880 --> 00:32:26,086
You're not obliged
to say anything,

599
00:32:26,360 --> 00:32:29,887
but anything you do say will be
taken down and used in evidence.

600
00:32:38,600 --> 00:32:41,206
All things come to he who waits,
Poirot.

601
00:32:41,520 --> 00:32:43,966
I knew I'd get him
sooner or later.

602
00:32:57,600 --> 00:33:00,080
Just because the solution
to a crime is simple, Poirot,

603
00:33:00,360 --> 00:33:01,646
doesn't mean to say it's wrong.

604
00:33:01,920 --> 00:33:04,526
Pritchard killed Andrew Marsh,
end of story.

605
00:33:04,800 --> 00:33:06,370
But why would he steal a will
that favored him?

606
00:33:06,680 --> 00:33:07,886
No, Chief Inspector.

607
00:33:08,160 --> 00:33:12,609
Still it has not been found,
nor, I believe, will it ever be.

608
00:33:12,880 --> 00:33:14,006
Did you question other suspects?

609
00:33:14,280 --> 00:33:15,406
Did Sergeant Baker?

610
00:33:15,720 --> 00:33:17,882
Of course we didn't,
because there weren't any.

611
00:33:19,160 --> 00:33:22,767
Robert Siddaway
and Violet Wilson.

612
00:33:23,040 --> 00:33:24,963
Monsieur Poirot is expecting us.

613
00:33:25,240 --> 00:33:27,083
What about that
telephone call, Chief Inspector,

614
00:33:27,360 --> 00:33:28,964
the one that Andrew
received at gone midnight?

615
00:33:29,240 --> 00:33:30,446
Pritchard, of course.

616
00:33:30,760 --> 00:33:32,683
Honestly, you two, when
you're backed into a corner-

617
00:33:32,960 --> 00:33:35,361
Miss Wilson and Mr. Siddaway.

618
00:33:35,680 --> 00:33:39,002
Monsieur Poirot, we thought
you should be the first to know.

619
00:33:39,280 --> 00:33:40,930
We're going to America.

620
00:33:41,200 --> 00:33:43,521
Robert's going to forego
his last year at King's,

621
00:33:43,800 --> 00:33:46,406
and there's a berth on the
Queen Mary leaving on Tuesday.

622
00:33:46,720 --> 00:33:49,803
Mademoiselle Violet,
Monsieur Robert.

623
00:33:50,080 --> 00:33:51,844
Please, do sit.

624
00:33:59,080 --> 00:34:01,003
<i>Et bien, mademoiselle.</i>

625
00:34:01,280 --> 00:34:03,089
What of the end of term?

626
00:34:03,360 --> 00:34:06,807
What of the graduation ceremony
of Mademoiselle Campion?

627
00:34:07,080 --> 00:34:09,447
Why the sudden rush,
Miss Wilson?

628
00:34:10,440 --> 00:34:12,329
What is there to stay for?

629
00:34:12,640 --> 00:34:15,166
Women are treated as equals
in America.

630
00:34:15,440 --> 00:34:18,250
I can forge myself
a decent career.

631
00:34:18,560 --> 00:34:24,090
And a man I've known all my life
is charged, quite insanely,

632
00:34:24,360 --> 00:34:27,409
with my guardian's murder.

633
00:34:27,720 --> 00:34:30,087
Mademoiselle Violet,
your late guardian

634
00:34:30,360 --> 00:34:33,011
would not have wanted you
to miss the graduation ceremony.

635
00:34:34,840 --> 00:34:36,205
Now, I beg of you,

636
00:34:36,520 --> 00:34:39,091
before you finally
make up your mind,

637
00:34:39,360 --> 00:34:43,524
to give Poirot
a little more time, please.

638
00:34:44,680 --> 00:34:47,809
[church bells ring]

639
00:34:55,400 --> 00:34:56,561
It's all very well,

640
00:34:56,840 --> 00:34:59,605
you saying probate's
a lengthy business, John,

641
00:34:59,880 --> 00:35:02,884
but Robert and Violet are
planning to leave the country.

642
00:35:03,160 --> 00:35:03,968
Do you want that?

643
00:35:04,240 --> 00:35:06,402
No, of course, I don't.

644
00:35:06,720 --> 00:35:09,371
Is it that difficult to prove
you're someone's heir?

645
00:35:09,680 --> 00:35:11,808
I mean, what does it involve?

646
00:35:12,080 --> 00:35:13,525
Surprisingly little.

647
00:35:13,800 --> 00:35:16,929
You swear an oath that you are
who you say you are.

648
00:35:17,200 --> 00:35:19,328
Don't you need a

No.

Would you apologize
to Sarah for me?

651
00:35:24,800 --> 00:35:26,404
She's invited me to dinner
on Saturday,

652
00:35:26,720 --> 00:35:27,926
but I'm going to London.

653
00:35:28,200 --> 00:35:30,248
I'll tell Sarah.

654
00:35:30,560 --> 00:35:31,971
Theater, concert?

655
00:35:32,240 --> 00:35:33,207
No.

as a matter of fact.

657

Whoever pushed Mademoiselle
Campion down the moving stairs,

664
00:36:39,000 --> 00:36:40,047
it was not Dr. Pritchard.

665
00:36:40,048 --> 00:36:41,254
He is in your custody.

666
00:36:41,560 --> 00:36:43,403
Yes, well, we don't know
that anyone pushed her yet.

667
00:36:43,720 --> 00:36:45,529
But he is not the murderer,
Chief Inspector.

668
00:36:45,800 --> 00:36:47,689
The murderer is still at large.

669
00:36:51,200 --> 00:36:55,171
Well, they obviously
got her here pretty quickly.

670

At least we know she survived.

681

She's a miss, Doctor.

Miss Campion.

683
00:37:21,040 --> 00:37:23,202
You called her "missus".

684

You, uh, know her well?

No,
but we know she's not married.

687

Tell me, Doctor,

688
00:37:34,160 --> 00:37:36,401
did you call her "missus"
out of habit

689
00:37:36,720 --> 00:37:38,961
or a slip of the tongue?

690

Look, I'm sorry.

I-I didn't mean to speak
out of turn, but-

692
00:37:43,160 --> 00:37:45,049
If there's something you know,
Doctor,

693
00:37:45,320 --> 00:37:48,642
it's your duty to tell us.

The end of the academic year

is something
I would never miss,

As you know, this is always
an informal occasion,

708
00:39:38,160 --> 00:39:40,527
because while the university
here at Cambridge

709
00:39:40,800 --> 00:39:44,168
acknowledges the hard work
of its male students,

710

it doesn't yet see fit to hold
a degree ceremony for women.

I hope that three years here

Shh.

727

To begin,
I think it is fitting

that we should make a toast
to our dear, late friend,

Monsieur Andrew Marsh.

730
00:41:14,560 --> 00:41:16,881
Andrew Marsh.

731
00:41:24,240 --> 00:41:26,686
Today would've given him
much pleasure, n'est-ce pas?

732
00:41:26,960 --> 00:41:30,885
And how proud
he would've been of you,

733
00:41:31,160 --> 00:41:32,207
Mademoiselle Violet.

[applause]

735
00:41:37,200 --> 00:41:39,885
However,
there is someone in this room

736
00:41:40,160 --> 00:41:43,164
who denied to him this pleasure.

737
00:41:43,440 --> 00:41:46,922
You mean,
his murderer is here?

738
00:41:47,200 --> 00:41:48,690
One of us?

739
00:41:53,800 --> 00:41:56,804
On the night that he died,

740
00:41:57,080 --> 00:41:59,890
Monsieur Andrew Marsh asked me
to be the executor

741
00:42:00,160 --> 00:42:01,400
of a new will he would make.

742
00:42:03,680 --> 00:42:07,844
I believe he was killed
for that fortune,

743
00:42:08,120 --> 00:42:10,327
and that the old will
was stolen and destroyed

744
00:42:10,640 --> 00:42:12,881
so that he would die intestate.

745
00:42:15,120 --> 00:42:18,886
So my duty, you see,
it has been twofold.

746
00:42:19,160 --> 00:42:21,606
First, to find the murderer,

747
00:42:21,880 --> 00:42:25,009
and then, before this ruthless
murderer could lay claim to it,

748
00:42:25,280 --> 00:42:26,930
to deliver his estate
to Mademoiselle Violet,

749
00:42:27,200 --> 00:42:28,725
according to his wishes.

750
00:42:30,960 --> 00:42:34,407
However, this murderer,
he was at work

751
00:42:34,720 --> 00:42:38,770
even as my dear friend Andrew
told to me his news most tragic.

752
00:42:39,040 --> 00:42:42,010
My specialist tells me I-

753
00:42:42,280 --> 00:42:43,691
Oh, damn it,
I'm not afraid of it.

754
00:42:43,960 --> 00:42:45,769
I'm just afraid
of upsetting others.

Hello?

00:42:53,320 --> 00:42:56,449
What, now?

759
00:42:59,000 --> 00:43:03,562
And thus, the murderer
lured him from the house...

760
00:43:03,840 --> 00:43:06,002
Couldn't this have waited?

761
00:43:06,280 --> 00:43:08,248
To a rendezvous at the folly.

And here,
our murderer administered

766
00:43:19,960 --> 00:43:22,531
a massive and fatal dose
of insulin,

767
00:43:22,800 --> 00:43:27,886
in a cowardly attack upon
a man who was sick and weakened.

768
00:43:34,240 --> 00:43:35,890
And voila.

769
00:43:38,120 --> 00:43:39,804
Hmm.

770
00:43:40,080 --> 00:43:45,371
But then along comes Poirot,
who says that this death

771
00:43:45,680 --> 00:43:47,091
is not a death that is natural.

772
00:43:47,360 --> 00:43:49,328
Oh, no.

773
00:43:49,640 --> 00:43:51,768
It is a murder.

774
00:43:52,040 --> 00:43:55,965
So fearing for their own safety,
the murderer pointed the finger

775
00:43:56,240 --> 00:43:57,969
toward Dr. Martin Pritchard,

776
00:43:58,240 --> 00:43:59,765
by placing
at the scene of the crime

777
00:44:00,040 --> 00:44:02,725
the vial containing the insulin.

778
00:44:03,000 --> 00:44:05,367
Chief Inspector Japp arrives to
help me with the investigation,

779
00:44:05,680 --> 00:44:08,286
he examines the folly,
and he finds it there.

780
00:44:08,600 --> 00:44:10,807
Why was that vial not found
the day of the murder

781
00:44:11,080 --> 00:44:14,641
by Sergeant Baker, huh?

782
00:44:14,920 --> 00:44:16,570
Because it was not there.

783
00:44:18,240 --> 00:44:20,083
No.

784
00:44:20,360 --> 00:44:22,362
Poirot himself
searched the area,

785
00:44:22,680 --> 00:44:24,887
and Poirot never misses.

786
00:44:25,880 --> 00:44:28,008
So my good friend
the Chief Inspector Japp

787
00:44:28,280 --> 00:44:31,921
promptly arrests
Dr. Martin Pritchard.

788
00:44:32,200 --> 00:44:35,044
And with a man who is innocent
charged for the murder,

789
00:44:35,320 --> 00:44:40,850
the real killer could now
lay claim to the Marsh fortune,

790
00:44:41,120 --> 00:44:43,566
so it was thought,

791
00:44:43,840 --> 00:44:46,889
without suspicion.

792
00:44:47,160 --> 00:44:49,845
But Dr. Martin Pritchard
had already told

793
00:44:50,120 --> 00:44:53,681
to my associate Captain Hastings
and myself

794
00:44:53,960 --> 00:44:57,043
that Andrew had a son.

795
00:45:03,320 --> 00:45:04,845
Peter, perhaps?

796
00:45:05,120 --> 00:45:10,251
That doesn't mean to say
I'd kill him for it.

797
00:45:10,560 --> 00:45:13,450
Or you, Robert.

798
00:45:13,760 --> 00:45:17,207
Now, your claim had to it
more substance, n'est-ce pas?

799
00:45:17,520 --> 00:45:19,648
Because you believed that
Andrew Marsh and your mother

800
00:45:19,920 --> 00:45:21,604
were lovers.

801
00:45:24,120 --> 00:45:26,521
Robert was with me
the night of Andrew's death,

Theater, concert?

811
00:45:47,760 --> 00:45:49,091
No.

812
00:45:49,360 --> 00:45:53,001
To see Hercule Poirot,
as a matter of fact.

813
00:45:53,280 --> 00:45:54,770
And, of course,
the killer certainly knew

00:45:55,040 --> 00:45:57,361
of the visit to London
of Mademoiselle Campion

815
00:45:57,680 --> 00:46:01,605
to see Poirot,

816
00:46:01,880 --> 00:46:05,521
because Mademoiselle Campion
had discovered in a conversation

817
00:46:05,800 --> 00:46:07,165
with the lawyer John Siddaway

818
00:46:07,440 --> 00:46:09,329
that for a child to claim
the estate of the father,

819
00:46:09,640 --> 00:46:14,441
the real identity of the mother
need not to be revealed.

820
00:46:14,760 --> 00:46:18,446
But events took such a turn
that did reveal a secret

821
00:46:18,760 --> 00:46:23,527
that she herself had kept
for more than, what, 20 years?

822
00:46:27,720 --> 00:46:34,080
What Mr. Poirot means is that
the doctor who treated me

823
00:46:34,360 --> 00:46:37,762
saw that I'd had a baby...

824
00:46:40,960 --> 00:46:43,531
when I was a student here.

825
00:46:47,600 --> 00:46:51,286
It was but a short step
for my secretary Miss Lemon

826
00:46:51,600 --> 00:46:53,329
to discover the name
of that baby.

827
00:46:55,680 --> 00:46:57,250
Please do read it, Miss Lemon.

828
00:46:58,560 --> 00:47:05,091
"Born on the 17th of July,
1913, to Miss Phyllida Campion,

829
00:47:05,360 --> 00:47:07,931
the daughter whose name
was Violet".

830
00:47:12,160 --> 00:47:15,687
What's going on?

831
00:47:15,960 --> 00:47:19,203
What on earth is happening?

832
00:47:19,520 --> 00:47:23,127
Was it necessary to pry
into Phyllida's past, Poirot?

833
00:47:23,400 --> 00:47:25,129
It's Andrew we're interested in.

834
00:47:25,400 --> 00:47:26,970
Yes, indeed.

835
00:47:27,240 --> 00:47:28,241
But during all this time,

836
00:47:28,560 --> 00:47:30,289
not once did we ask ourselves
this question:

837
00:47:30,600 --> 00:47:33,649
is this son that we seek...

838
00:47:36,120 --> 00:47:38,521
perhaps a daughter?

839
00:47:41,120 --> 00:47:45,125
So Violet
is Andrew Marsh's daughter?

840
00:47:48,600 --> 00:47:50,011
Yes.

841
00:47:57,640 --> 00:48:01,884
So Monsieur Robert,
why did you kill the father

842
00:48:02,160 --> 00:48:03,321
to Mademoiselle Violet?

843
00:48:03,640 --> 00:48:04,562
I didn't.

844
00:48:04,840 --> 00:48:06,365
I say you did, monsieur!

845
00:48:06,680 --> 00:48:08,284
Why?

846
00:48:08,600 --> 00:48:10,329
You know that she loves you.

847
00:48:10,640 --> 00:48:12,449
You know that she wants you
to go to America with her.

848
00:48:12,760 --> 00:48:13,799
Why. then?

849
00:48:13,800 --> 00:48:15,848
He's just told you he didn't!

850
00:48:20,560 --> 00:48:22,881
No, madam.

851
00:48:23,160 --> 00:48:26,960
Perhaps Robert,
he is not the murderer.

852
00:48:30,000 --> 00:48:35,450
Because, just as we thought the
heir of Andrew had to be a man,

853
00:48:35,760 --> 00:48:40,448
so too did we think
of the murderer.

854
00:48:43,360 --> 00:48:46,569
This killer was someone
who stole a syringe

855
00:48:46,840 --> 00:48:49,650
from the bag belonging
to Dr. Pritchard,

856
00:48:49,920 --> 00:48:52,844
who knew the power of insulin.

857
00:48:54,840 --> 00:48:59,209
And you, I was told,
had been a children's nurse,

858
00:48:59,520 --> 00:49:01,010
Madam Siddaway.

859
00:49:03,880 --> 00:49:06,360
It was you
who convinced Robert

860
00:49:06,680 --> 00:49:07,727
that he was the son of Andrew.

861
00:49:08,000 --> 00:49:09,240
It was Robert who told you
of the visit

862
00:49:09,560 --> 00:49:10,800
of Mademoiselle Campion
to London,

863
00:49:11,080 --> 00:49:12,047
where you followed her,

864
00:49:12,320 --> 00:49:14,721
where you pushed her down
the moving stairs.

865
00:49:15,000 --> 00:49:17,924
[screams]

866
00:49:18,200 --> 00:49:19,326
Somebody get help!

867
00:49:19,640 --> 00:49:22,849
Because you are afraid
that at last

868
00:49:23,120 --> 00:49:25,202
she would reveal
Mademoiselle Violet

869
00:49:25,520 --> 00:49:27,010
as the rightful heir.

870
00:49:29,200 --> 00:49:31,009
No.

871
00:49:36,560 --> 00:49:38,130
John, help me.

872
00:49:41,200 --> 00:49:43,123
There's nothing I can do,
Sarah.

873
00:49:44,280 --> 00:49:46,931
How did you know about Violet?

874
00:49:49,800 --> 00:49:51,564
I had a friend
who worked in the clinic.

875
00:49:51,840 --> 00:49:53,888
I met her years later.

876
00:49:57,360 --> 00:50:00,170
There was so little
we had to give Robert.

877
00:50:00,440 --> 00:50:03,364
But he was mentioned
in the will, madam.

878
00:50:03,680 --> 00:50:07,002
Well, why did you steal
and destroy it?

879
00:50:07,280 --> 00:50:10,363
Because I wanted him
to have everything!

880
00:50:11,760 --> 00:50:13,808
Why should it all go to Violet?

881
00:50:14,080 --> 00:50:18,165
Because Andrew Marsh
wished it

882
00:50:18,440 --> 00:50:21,887
as proof
that she was his daughter...

883
00:50:25,040 --> 00:50:26,963
and his equal.

884
00:50:32,920 --> 00:50:36,288
I think you'd better come
along with me, Mrs. Siddaway.

885
00:50:47,560 --> 00:50:48,527
Ah!

886
00:50:48,800 --> 00:50:51,406
Mademoiselle Campion,
Mademoiselle Violet.

887
00:50:51,720 --> 00:50:54,610
Your magazine could not
have a name that is better, huh?

888
00:50:54,880 --> 00:50:56,325
<i>The New Prospects,</i>

889
00:50:56,640 --> 00:50:59,041
for these are very exciting
for you both, are they not?

890
00:50:59,320 --> 00:51:00,446
They certainly are.

891
00:51:00,760 --> 00:51:02,683
And I'm going to use
the inheritance

892
00:51:02,960 --> 00:51:04,325
to start my own
publishing company.

893
00:51:04,640 --> 00:51:05,846
Ah!

894
00:51:06,120 --> 00:51:09,727
And you, Monsieur Poirot,
shall be my first subscriber.

895
00:51:10,000 --> 00:51:12,526
Thank you, mademoiselle.

896
00:51:12,800 --> 00:51:16,247
You know, the companies,
they have a chairman, huh?

897
00:51:16,560 --> 00:51:19,086
But in this instance,
why not a chairwoman?

898
00:51:19,360 --> 00:51:21,089
You already have a chair, I see.

899
00:51:21,360 --> 00:51:22,691
Not for much longer.

900
00:51:22,960 --> 00:51:25,566
Plaster comes off
a week today.

901
00:51:25,840 --> 00:51:27,285
And what of Robert?

902
00:51:27,600 --> 00:51:31,082
I think I can persuade him
to finish his degree.

903
00:51:31,840 --> 00:51:34,684
That is good.

904
00:51:34,960 --> 00:51:39,090
<i>Alors au revoir, mademoiselle.</i>

905
00:51:41,280 --> 00:51:44,648
<i>Et bonne chance.</i>

906
00:51:44,920 --> 00:51:47,241
Thank you, Monsieur Poirot.

907
00:52:01,880 --> 00:52:05,009
