disagreeable person who does not intend

to let his sister run off with the first

cockshaw Yankee who makes her pulse's

jump

and I suppose Philip feels the same way

about it

Philip has no choice in the matter

as my younger brother Philip feels

precisely as I tell him to

Eve's dropping again Brandon oh no Mr

Philip I assure you but I didn't wish to

disturb him

Yeti demarin tongs about Captain Victory

I mean really

Mr Jeffrey and Captain Vickery at an

honorable route this afternoon over miss

Sally I thought they were coming to

blows indeed I did proud that'll do now

Brandon if I catch you snooping again I

should ask my brother to give him notice

you're not above a bit of snooping

yourself are you Philip

not in the least oh boy

oh there you are I've been ringing to

you

sorry Dr Watson I was in the upper

region the libraries in a filthy mess

the wind came switching down the chimney

and Scattered the ashes everywhere very

well I'll tidy it up at once doctor

it's customary nurse comes up just the

sort of night offensive for the ghost of

Lady Clarinda oh no Dr Watson lady

Clarinda only Walks In The West Wing no

one ever met a ghost in this part of the

house isn't there some story though

there was an housemate cleaned that she

saw said Jervis Musgrave with his head

on backwards In This Very Room

well she was just a flighty girl sir

sounds like it very flattery a most

ly

head on backwards

foreign

does the wind always carry on like this

hill frequently sir it's a great pity it

makes the gentleman Restless more than

usual I mean

well our patients are all tucked up for

the night now hey brother

are they of course of course well aren't

they

kept in Vickery is in his room sir

and it looked like major lingford I saw

going toward the pool

and I can't account for lifting and

clevering

a very odd sir

anything else no thank you oh yes yes

you might tell Dr Sexton that I'd like

to see him for a minute very good sir

good night sir good afternoon

but

ton let's get him in this chair over

here sorry

awfully sorry

skip get my baby friend yes now let's

have a look

karate

looks like a knife wound here you are

sir

it's like a nightmare give me some of

the cotton wool in that little bottle

please

have your pets up no time to be as good

as new

what happened hi I hardly know it

it was in line walk just now

I was coming up from the village

I remember distinctly I was approaching

the greenhouse

the wind was terrific

I had to fight my way

if I had the slightest warning

all I know is that

he's tracking I went down

he must have thought I was done for

any idea who it was no

well that is I yeah

oh really I

I haven't did it right you have every

right Dr Sexton

[Music]

as head of this house I shall arranged

for an immediate investigation I'd

rather not if you don't mind sir Dr

Sexton the fact that my brother and

sister and I have opened our home to

convalescent patients doesn't relieve us

of all responsibility for what occurs in

it I mean Under The Peculiar

circumstances Oh Come Along Bob there's

there's no need to Shield anyone

foreign

nothing nothing at all

sir don't you remember the last time it

did that your father was killed the next

day

[Music]

thank you

Mr Holmes it's your hose

oh Mr holmesan oh

that's really a scientific experiment

this is Hudson oh frightening the witch

out of honest people don't miss me man

oh dear so now it's bullet holes in me

plaster

oh Mr Holmes this is the last troll the

last straw Mrs Hudson the one which

breaks the back of the case against

jacobville it proves beyond the shadow

of a doubt that even bounce he claims he

was he could still have fired the shot

in his own defense but killed his wife's

lover but shooting holes in my beautiful

plaster

come in Watson

my dear fella I'm going to find you in

I didn't even knock how did you know it

was me hi me as acceptable once unless

of course you're a purist which I doubt

and may I add that your step is like no

other in London you're just in time for

breakfast good I rather counted on that

Mrs Hudson dear how are you oh it's good

to see you again sir I I think there'll

be enough there for two splendid

your recite for Sore Eyes Watson thanks

oh boy and so are you sit down good

thank you all right let's have it

what brings you from Northumberland at

this early hour

a bad business home a very bad business

how'd you know that I came from

Northumberland Elementary Watson your

overnight bag Canada fresh Houston label

the only train arriving at Houston

Station at this island is the New Castle

Express from Northumberland there goes

the night outcome is from Northumberland

cool obvious isn't it quite now tell me

my dark deed was done at Hurston Towers

last night well that's what I came to

see about homes

but 10 o'clock last night I was sitting

in the lab

how did you know that I came from Hudson

you wrote me that you'd volunteered for

medical service within the realm with

your experience what post could have

been offered you other than to put you

in charge of a home for confidence and

officers only one such home has been

opened in Northumberland the last month

and that's Musgrave Manor at Hurston

simple reasoning child could do it

not your child Watson well of course

well I never had a child

though did I ever tell you about that

that Widow Twickenham very narrow Escape

I just found out in times she had the

most horrible little squirt about three

and a half yes and I think we better

stick to Hurston

is that

ghosts don't stab people of the neck do

they

I'll do that

not well bread ghosts Watson

who was stabbed in the neck my young

assistant Dr Sexton when last night any

idea who did it oh no idea and appointed

it well no no I didn't why not

what you're trying to say is the office

is in your care are all fine fellows

wonderful world records and so on is

that it

so you thought perhaps a private

investigation exactly get it right and

proper thinking Watson it's just time to

catch the 930 train to post them what

about your fellows snow immediate hole

isn't that your patients are all victims

of combat fatigue any one of them might

go over the edge at any moment

and from what you've told me there's a

killer Lucid Hurston

got you we're having a moment to lose

I only hope we shall be too late

[Applause]

you were right Watson about Musgrave

manner houses like people have definite

personalities and this place is

positively ghoulish so news hello

what's that

you're still Greenhouse a pot of leaves

Mr normal leaves why

doesn't this thank you as odd Watson but

the pile of leaves should be wrecked up

in front of a greenhouse door

no Gardener in the world would do that

Jeffrey Musgrave

that's all very interesting inspector

lestrade

but what

what does it prove

what I'm trying to prove is this the

doctor sex Studio went down twice now

inspector you were stunned naturally he

went out longer than you thought that's

the point what point just this the man

who attacked him had time to get back

into the ass before Dr Sexton ear came

too yes yes and this year glove

oh

and this year glove what I picked up at

the scene of the crime belongs to a

certain party right here in this house I

say well that love belongs to my brother

huh you suggested he attempted to murder

Dr Sexton who knows

the mayor news and physician love will

bear talking to very well my brother's

down at the Stables I'll take you to him

myself it's the quickest way to put a

stop to this blithering nonsense come on

oh Mr Philip yeah better not go out in

the night air without a coat yeah take

mine fat

and I will need this no oh uh

nor this well should we go

why is it ain't Mr ohms good evening

let's try it come to give us an end have

you always happy to help inspector

needing any

why if it isn't Dr Watson

Philip Musgrave and Dr sex how do you do

how do you do I've just brought him up

to spend a few days with us well that's

very good of you but as you see Scott

and yarn's already taking charge all

right it's most unfortunate if you don't

little talk with your brother sir I'm

afraid you can't have that pleasure

inspector oh now

got bad news for you Mr Musgrave we've

just found your brother in the lime walk

he's dead

you can't mean it

no

little jokes murder's no joke inspector

come with it

brampton's work

the butler he fed himself apart but only

when he's drinking I see wasn't that an

American killer given to verse home you

don't think that excuse me

I merely stated

there's an American killer given to

verse

dog there you are

Studio

just made me wake up won't you it's just

a bad dream I know

Jeff and Pat no no you've got to get a

grip on yourself

come sit down

my brother Jeff

murdered

poor old Jeff

and I hadn't spoken to him since we had

the fight yesterday on Pat I mean

Captain Vickery's account

and that was dead no no do you just pull

yourself together but you don't

understand

they're trying to say that

they're trying to prove that Pat killed

Jeff no no yes

funny isn't it

awfully funny

stop it

who you my name is Holmes Sherlock

Holmes yes

then you'll help us won't you Mr Holmes

Pat and me I'll try to

now tell me it wasn't the Bad Blood

between your brother Jeffrey and Captain

Dickory that's got nothing to do with it

may have everything to do with it if you

think Captain Vickery ever murdered

anyone you're no more of a detective

than than than Dr Watson yeah

I'm sorry

you're very much in love aren't you I'm

out of my mind Mr Holmes

I'm out of my mind

please forgive me and please please help

me of course of course I understand but

you don't understand that a poorly man

from Scotland Yard is questioning Pat at

this very moment

now this is your rake it's the identical

one you got from The Gardener this

afternoon now isn't it

smells like it hey what is this are you

trying to prove that Jeffrey Musgrave

was killed with a rake now I'm trying to

never mind what I'm trying to prove just

incriminate yourself Captain Victory

that's all the strong ones I'll thank

you to keep out of this Mr irms this is

Mr Sherlock Holmes I promise to help you

Dan there's nothing to worry about now

only is Nick Miss now to see a rake what

did you say you were using it for I told

you I got it to fish my cap out of the

pond it blew in oh so you were using it

down at the pond were you for the tenth

time yes and how did it happen to turn

up alongside my scraper's body eh I

don't know well that's it Oh Mr Holmes

any fingerprints on the rec inspector no

Mr Owens that's the point if Victory

here was only using it to fish his head

out well no he wouldn't bother to wipe

his fingerprints off now would he it's

beyond imagination I suppose that

somebody else could have used the rig

and wiped off both sets of fingerprints

highly interested but very unlikely now

you admit that you had a regular set too

with Jeffrey Musgrave yesterday didn't

you yes

I merely made the offer he didn't accept

it who told you so eat it oh no eat it I

only stated what I heard Captain Vickery

did threaten my brother that's right Mr

Owens and it's no good saying it ain't

this Yankee LED and motive and

opportunity and the rake ties him right

up tight to the corpse all right I'm

alone

and you really think he killed all

Musgrave do you know very well he did he

doesn't stop looking those needles

take it easy Sally now look don't worry

a bit I tell you where everything's

gonna be all right

let's go inspect you

steady steady oh aren't you on our side

yes Sally

don't you do something because Captain

Victory will be much safer in the local

police station tonight than he would be

in this house oh

Watson I'll get it at once come along

thank you

is a bit upset but she'll get over it

you think so

you have to she's got an ordeal ahead of

her she has to go through that tire some

ritual tomorrow

ritual

this is no family ceremony Mr Holmes

Sally's next in line now that I'm head

of the household

last

Let's Help

oh yes thanks

knitting needle isn't it

yes

handy little things

this is my air Sally has to recite a

sort of formula over Jeff's body in

front of the fireplace in the library in

the presence of the entire household

yeah that's better

that's what sort of formula

oh it's not meaningless words masquerade

ritual they call it so family custom has

been handed down for Generations

you remember the words no not at all but

you had to speak to when your brother

Jeffrey took over

yes if that's right I did

let me see now

who first shall find it were better dead

who next shall find it perils his head

the last to find it defy his dark powers

just shall find it

perils his head

the last to find it defies dark powers

and brings Good Fortune to Hurston

Towers

where was the light

on the face of the messenger

once more into the breach dear friends

happy day

drunken salt you must have been ringing

you for the past 10 minutes why don't

you answer

it Fly Away Little Gremlin you're the

one will fly away it here that catches

you in this state

Cummings up

Candice

one moment sir

Mr Holmes

Cummins are coming

this is indeed an honor

I don't know what in Hell visitors what

can I do for you sir might stop that

squeaking to begin with

yes and perhaps you can tell me how you

come to know the Musgrave ritual by

heart me sir yes you

when miss Sally forgot the lines today

you were the one who prompted her

well sir I memorized it obviously but

why

because it has no meaning

I love things that have no meaning

thank you Brandon but supposing you did

have a meaning and suppose that meaning

were tied up with a murder of Jeffrey

Musgrave oh what a lovely idea

if I'm in season I made Brunton

you may also sit down thank you sir

oh stop it

look at me

no here

you know the meaning of the Musgrave

ritual do I well don't you you'd be

surprised at all the things I know what

things

no you don't about the Musgraves they're

to be tilling when she is to them anyway

all the mass Graves past and present

some of them were murderers and some of

them worse but they all knew how to keep

a secret and so do I

but

I've been ringing for you for the past

10 minutes sorry sir but the buzzer

doesn't Buzz

that'll do Brandon you have your notice

do you understand

yes is that advisable Mr Musgrave let me

be the judge of that he leaves hurlston

in the morning the morning's a long way

off

farewell

a long farewell to all my greatness

you've done it

that we've been through

what am I going to do

[Music]

[Music]

foreign

[Music]

again

yes

please

[Music]

last night yet she seems completely

unwilling to help us find him that's her

she knows where he is as well as we do I

mean as well as we don't I wonder you

said that he was drinking last night

wouldn't it be a good idea to try the

pub exactly where we're headed for

Watson I'm glad we thought of this even

if we don't find Brandon

I was afraid we shouldn't find him here

don't worry oh boy I could do it with a

drink your information so could I

gentlemen uh hello adapter uh not

looking for us are you are you well no

as a matter of fact we're looking for

London you haven't seen him have you uh

heavy clothing why should we

good morning Gracie morning doctor what

yeah burn the person what's yours how to

find it better

oh really

oh team Raven

the devil are you a cattle are you

words of prayer aren't there yes in a

way scavengers rather

they can smell a as half a mile off

yeah

you should see Charlie here when there's

a tasty bit outside in the street should

we go sit down

[Applause]

thank you

Gracie have you seen Dr Watson he's over

there Les thank you

may I speak to you a moment Mr Holmes

what's wrong Kelly we can't find my

brother Philip did you look at his room

that's the trouble we have to force the

door it was locked on the inside really

yes oh you must come Mr House

please drive it away

take it away

anywhere into the pub just take it away

okay

Philip Musgrave

what are they doing now doing now I

don't know I stopped talking

somebody's walking about in the upper

Hall

heavy footsteps

there's no doubt about it Watson Philip

Musgrave had a visitor here last night

his Footprints were made either by a

very heavy man or a man carrying a very

heavy burden that's right Mr Holmes it's

no good saying it ain't the burden was

Philip musgrave's body and the easier

Footprints but made by Alfred Brampton

it doesn't necessarily follow oh don't

it

here try that on your footprint

and that's Alfred brampton's shoe

it's perfectly inspector but the fact

that these prints were made by brunton's

shoes doesn't prove the brunton's feet

were in them why not where should

brunton's feet be if not in his own shoe

well they're not in them now are they

what's wrong with that let's stick to

motive that's my strong point now this

is a branded ad motive

Philip Mustang came in the set didn't he

did Jeffrey Musgrave also give him the

SEC what's that going to do with it

everything the similarity of method in

both murders shows they were the work of

one man well that's Vickery out he was

in jail at the time it's all right and

Alfred brunton's our man just what I

said what possible murder could Brunton

have had for the murder of Jeffrey Ma's

grave motive oh bother motive who cares

about motive this case is as simple as

ABC is it then perhaps you could explain

to us why these Footprints lead up to a

blank wall and never return what

if you didn't think of that did you

inspect it there's just one possible

explanation hi Cottage

Brampton murdered Musgrave right up

against the wall he oystered the body

over his shoulder like this you see

walks backwards clean out of the room

so that's a very undignified position of

the star up to date it

[Applause]

in a house as old as this it's not

unusual to find secret passageways that

lead down through the walls hello here

we are no you don't come out of there

what are you doing in there none of your

business answer me obviously she was

looking for Brunton that's right he

hasn't left Musgrave Manor I'm certain

of that sir his clothes are still

hanging in the wardrobe don't you lie to

me woman you've got him in there

somewhere don't come in there why not

you'll get lost me lost oh I like that

he will get lost sir not him now listen

to me

where did you enter that passageway

through the old Greenhouse in line walk

sir abundant of that no he didn't this

is Bentham

then why were you looking for him in

there we all right yes we've known all

along that you were married to Brunton

you know Philip Musgrave was murdered

don't you no yes you were doing you

think Bunton did it no you think he

counted him down through the greenhouse

no no over to the garage no he never and

his body in the rumble seat of that

Roadster don't your child put the blame

on out I'll put the blame on both of you

you're in this together you were in his

room last night I saw you there only to

talk about the ritual sir he we he

thought that he got it all worked out

did he leave any notes any record no

that is oh come on come on out with it

only this huh I found her this morning

under the soap dish on his wash stand

hmm he's still written another jingle

yeah

yes obviously it's an agitation

if any harm should come to me fleshly or

spiritual seek and you will find the key

in the Musgrave ritual real ritual there

it is again watch me but I find that

ritual it's the key to the whole

business just a minute you can't talk to

Sally why not she was in such a state I

had to give her a hyper all right come

on

draw the curtains Watson

there must be a copy of that rich or

somewhere in this room she had to learn

it you know if you're right

here it is I doubt it

empty quiet there's only one thing to do

search the room not the room Watson her

mind we must search her mind

obviously she took great pains to hide

that paper but why should you hide it

put yourself in her place

her brother Jeffrey was murdered the man

she loves his accused of that murder and

thrown into jail on top of that she

finds her brother Philip murdered what

would your reactions be well mattress to

be terrible upset obviously excuse me

she's blocked back to this house in a

state bordering on hysteria she comes

through that door goes to that desk

throws down her gloves but first thing

her highlights on is the Musgrave ritual

in her mind it's tied up with all the

disasters that have performed Hurston

she herself may be the next victim she

must hide that paper quite right but but

well

excuse me

was she alone in this room at any time

before you gave her the hypo certainly

not Nora was here she helped him to bed

while I went for my bag good

what was the first thing she did well

sir she asked me to turn down her bed

and lay out her night dress what was she

doing in the meantime let me think sir

oh yes she went over to her desk that

was when she took the Ritual from this

envelope but then she asked me to step

over and draw the curtains

wait someone's pulled them open yes I

know when you do the curtains you turned

your back or not sure and it wasn't more

than two shakes of the lamb's tail long

enough

when you were at the window where was

she was sitting over here

sitting right here taking off her

stockings

but she never left the chair I kissed a

book on it I've got it

she must have tucked that paper under

this cushion

hmm

supposed to change the Mind obviously

well she could hit it anywhere here

what time is it when you brought her in

here Watson I'm the first out here the

Clock Was striking the quarter hour when

I came in sir I definitely heard it this

clock the same sir thank you Nora you

may go

obviously this clock was running at 12

15. just as obviously it stopped at 12

20. huh

when Nola turned her back Sally reached

across opened the clock

and hid the ritual in here

Mountain's mattress in this house he's

bound to make one last effort to get

down there to erase those marks and

actually starts men are posted outside

jack prison camp he's got that

Philadelphia Open he's bound and

astrad

[Applause]

remember clevering stay where you are

yeah look here Council I'm Dr Watson oh

yeah now

well I'm Mrs Miniver

come along to the inspector Crossing

partners

[Music]

useless

quite useless I'll show you

there's nothing written on the floor

was just a ruse of mine to bring

Bronson's murderer here

permit me

as the most ruthless killer in England

you deserve some of the light killer I

oh I say you seem to forget that my life

was also attempted and a very neat trick

it was to divert suspicion from yourself

but it struck me as odd that the man who

murdered both Musgraves with such a sure

hand should have missed so badly in your

case

unless of course

you yourself for the murderer that's

ridiculous then too

it seemed curious that you were doctor

examine both bodies and fail to report

the real cause of death

and that was

a cisternal needle thrust up into the

brain between the base of the skull and

the first cervical vertebra I had the

unpleasant duty of removing this piece

of needle from Philip musgrave's head

it couldn't be yours by any chance could

it I never owned one oh yes you did

I thought in your case

the night I came into this house

just after Jeffrey Musgrave was found

murdered

it wasn't broken then

was only when you killed Philip Musgrave

that you lost a piece of it nonsense why

should I go around sticking needles into

people a fair enough question doctor

among nice people murder like matamin it

generally has a motive

and in this case the motive was

matrimony

Oh you mean miss Sally I do

oh I see so you think it's a case of

murder for Prophet do you precisely my

dear Holmes that won't do the musque is

a landform everybody knows that exactly

but everybody didn't know what you knew

you worked out the meaning of the

Musgrave ritual

I have oh yes you have

you claimed you knew nothing about the

game of Chase

when I suggested you'd moved off your

proper Square you promptly named Kings

Bishop 3 and what's more move back onto

it nonsense why should I have stepped

out of my swear make up my moves spoil

my game and prevent me from finding what

you had already found and that was the

old land grant I took from this box

which would have made Sally Musgrave

upon the death of her brothers the

richest woman in England

hello what's that

don't tell me you found another needle

no no

just a button

wouldn't be yours would it

mine

give it to me

thank you

would you mind telling me why you think

I was down here with Brenton no not at

all

as I see it

you killed Philip Musgrave in his own

room

carried his body down through the secret

passageway out through the greenhouse

into the garage where you crammed it

into the rumble seat of that Roadster

but unfortunately for you

you had a witness

Bunton was there

sleeping off his drunk

nursing at grudge against Philip

Musgrave

bromton the KBR accessory

but you didn't want an accessory so you

lured him down here with a promise

to share the most grave treasure with

him and uh exit button

very ingenious Mr Holmes you seem to

have everything

except perhaps the negligible item of

proof suppose we leave that to the jury

suppose we do

shall we go after you

oh by the way

don't forget your torch

oh thanks

[Applause]

I don't suppose it occurred to you

that you were taking a bit of a chance

coming down here all alone with a

suspected murderer

one has to take chances my profession

doctor you see I couldn't possibly risk

sharing my little plot with anybody not

even with Dr Watson particularly not the

Dr Watson if he'd know what was up

tonight he'd been so elaboratively

mysterious he'd have given the whole

show away as a matter of fact I had the

devil's own time luring him away from

that door upstairs so that uh we could

be alone that's all I wanted to know

thank you

foreign

I have no choice Dr Sexton

okay

you're not really going to kill me are

you

they'll hear you who will

that was a bad slip you made letting me

know you were so completely alone

and you're really going to kill me

I'm afraid I have no choice Mr Holmes

but as you said

I have no evidence against you

no proof no proof at all you forget the

needle and the button

bring them here please

not too close

now put them in my pocket

thank you

curious about that button it is of my

coat of course

can't think how I never missed it

poor old Brunton he didn't struggle much

now Phil Musgrave was different the

needle broke off and I didn't have time

to probe for it

but you've got both of them now the

button and the needle why kill me

I'll step back just a bit

against the wall

all right

now if you stand perfectly still I think

I can manage this with one shot

put him up

did you hear his confession Watson every

word Holmes and I heard all the rest sir

good let me congratulate you on an

extraordinary catch that's right Mr

Stones it's no good saying it ain't I'm

afraid I underestimated you Holmes pity

yes

those blank cartridges were a cheap

solid trick I grant you

but it wasn't easy to let you take my

gun away from me without seeming to hand

it to you

that's why I let you take the torch

first I knew you'd snap it off yes we

told you we're taking an awful risk

well we had to have a confession

and these ego Maniacs are always so much

more chatty when they feel they have the

upper hand should we go

it looks like an old land grant

it's really a crown Grant what I don't

understand is why the Musgraves didn't

claim the land ages ago obviously Watson

one of them died before passing on the

meaning of the ritual to his heir

the words remained but the sins was lost

I wonder why he left the grant down

there where he found it what good would

it have done him so long as your

brothers lived once they were out of the

way and you came into the property you

expected to marry you I like that

self-irresistible precisely it's not

unheard of in cases of egomania I

suppose then he meant to ReDiscover the

crown Grand at the proper time yes and

then enjoy his wife's Millions did you

say Millions I did look here

foreign

about 80 000 Acres of the richest soil

in England

aren't there people on it yes Farms

Villages even a factory town with

hundreds of workman's Cottages is this

thing legal perfectly of course it'll

drag on through the courts just a moment

the people on this land they put their

money into it their life work

it's their homes I'll be taking yes

do you think I'm going to kick these

people out

[Applause]

I'm used to save homes you let poor

little Sally throw away a fortune my

dear fellow I had nothing to do with it

the girl more power to her acted on her

own Grand gesture one she may regret

I don't think so Watson

there's a new spirit abroad in the land

the old days of grab and greed are on

the way out we're beginning to think of

what we owe the other fellow not just

what we're compelled to give him

the time's coming Watson when we shall

be able to fill our bellies in Comfort

while other folk go hungry or sleep in

warm beds

my love is shiver in the cold

well we shall be able to kneel and thank

God for blessings before our shining

altars

while men anywhere

are kneeling in either physical or

spiritual subjection

you may be right home but

oh God

and God willing we'll live to see that

day Watson
