1
00:02:31,458 --> 00:02:33,917
<i>Signore Poirot,</i> your pastries.

2
00:02:37,125 --> 00:02:38,833
The eggs came, <i>signore.</i>

3
00:02:43,833 --> 00:02:45,292
-Poirot!
-Poirot!

4
00:02:45,708 --> 00:02:47,083
<i>Monsieur Poirot,</i> you must help me.

5
00:02:47,250 --> 00:02:49,458
My parents both
mysteriously died last year.

6
00:02:49,625 --> 00:02:51,417
My brother, soon after.

7
00:02:51,583 --> 00:02:53,125
Our doctor can't explain it.

8
00:02:53,792 --> 00:02:55,875
Please, <i>Monsieur.</i> I fear for my life.

9
00:02:56,042 --> 00:02:57,333
They say we're cursed.

10
00:03:03,417 --> 00:03:04,333
What did I tell you?

11
00:03:04,750 --> 00:03:06,875
Touch him again and I keep your hand.

12
00:03:07,042 --> 00:03:08,042
Excuse me, sir.

13
00:03:11,708 --> 00:03:14,708
<i>Signore Poirot,</i> I need to speak to you
urgently, please.

14
00:03:33,458 --> 00:03:34,208
<i>Monsieur</i> Poirot...

15
00:03:35,958 --> 00:03:36,875
there is a lady here.

16
00:03:37,042 --> 00:03:39,167
She says she's in Venice
on urgent business.

17
00:03:39,333 --> 00:03:40,792
She says she's a friend of yours.

18
00:03:40,958 --> 00:03:41,917
I don't have any friends.

19
00:03:42,083 --> 00:03:43,583
She said you would say that...

20
00:03:43,750 --> 00:03:45,792
so I should give you this.

21
00:03:46,708 --> 00:03:48,083
The authoress.

22
00:03:50,542 --> 00:03:53,333
Hello, young man. Is your mother at home?

23
00:03:53,500 --> 00:03:56,000
You must forgive my bodyguard.
His instructions are mine.

24
00:03:56,167 --> 00:03:58,208
No one may pass but the pastry man,
twice a day.

25
00:03:58,375 --> 00:03:59,167
Twice a day?

26
00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:02,375
-You know me. Apples only till supper.
-Yes.

27
00:04:02,917 --> 00:04:04,708
Oh, gosh, I like this so much.

28
00:04:05,917 --> 00:04:07,333
Oh, the little chochy-chochy-late.

29
00:04:07,833 --> 00:04:11,583
Hercule Poirot really has gone silent.

30
00:04:11,750 --> 00:04:14,083
Walled himself up into retirement.

31
00:04:14,250 --> 00:04:15,417
Cakes for cases.

32
00:04:15,583 --> 00:04:16,833
I am much satisfied.

33
00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:18,083
No.

34
00:04:18,250 --> 00:04:20,875
This is happiness, not satisfaction.

35
00:04:21,041 --> 00:04:22,417
A writer knows the difference.

36
00:04:23,083 --> 00:04:25,292
Even picked Venice to hide in.

37
00:04:25,458 --> 00:04:28,000
A gorgeous relic,
slowly sinking into the sea...

38
00:04:28,167 --> 00:04:29,875
just like your mind without a challenge.

39
00:04:30,833 --> 00:04:33,042
Don't underestimate me
for a clever turn of phrase.

40
00:04:33,208 --> 00:04:35,167
I am the world's number one
mystery writer.

41
00:04:35,333 --> 00:04:36,417
Or was, anyway.

42
00:04:36,583 --> 00:04:39,292
Bestsellers, 27 of 30 books.

43
00:04:39,458 --> 00:04:42,708
Damn the critics on the last three.
Called them all small beer.

44
00:04:42,875 --> 00:04:45,917
Ariadne Oliver, it is good to see you.

45
00:04:46,083 --> 00:04:47,083
You're coming with me.

46
00:04:48,083 --> 00:04:50,292
Time to put some life back into your life.

47
00:04:50,458 --> 00:04:51,333
Well, then.

48
00:04:51,750 --> 00:04:53,625
Did you not hear? This is urgent.

49
00:04:53,792 --> 00:04:57,750
You are not the first who has come
to seduce me with some irresistible case.

50
00:04:57,917 --> 00:05:00,625
Not a case. It's much spiffier than that.

51
00:05:02,208 --> 00:05:05,292
You really are cut off from the world.
Do you not know what today is?

52
00:05:07,333 --> 00:05:08,583
What is "spiffier"?

53
00:05:13,917 --> 00:05:15,583
Happy Halloween! Yeah!

54
00:05:17,083 --> 00:05:19,750
We Americans imported loud music
and terrible chocolate...

55
00:05:19,917 --> 00:05:21,750
but we also brought back Halloween.

56
00:05:21,917 --> 00:05:23,750
There's a party tonight for the children.

57
00:05:23,917 --> 00:05:27,167
Hey, kids! America says,
"Happy Halloween!"

58
00:05:27,625 --> 00:05:29,958
Hey! Happy Halloween! Let's go!

59
00:05:32,208 --> 00:05:35,042
Poirot, I've found something. Someone.

60
00:05:35,208 --> 00:05:36,542
I can't explain it.

61
00:05:36,708 --> 00:05:40,083
I've looked at it from every which way,
and I can't figure it out.

62
00:05:40,250 --> 00:05:42,667
You are up to something, my friend.

63
00:05:44,542 --> 00:05:46,250
"The Unholy Ms. Reynolds."

64
00:05:47,833 --> 00:05:50,417
{\an8}She's a spiritualist or a medium,
according to the papers...

65
00:05:50,583 --> 00:05:52,750
"Joyce Reynolds,
recently released from jail...

66
00:05:52,917 --> 00:05:55,042
"was the last woman
on record imprisoned...

67
00:05:55,208 --> 00:05:59,042
"under the terms
of the Witchcraft Act of 1735."

68
00:05:59,208 --> 00:06:02,958
I've seen a million of these
so-called psychics, each one a flimflam fake.

69
00:06:03,125 --> 00:06:04,292
Then, there's that one.

70
00:06:04,958 --> 00:06:06,167
Astonishing.

71
00:06:06,375 --> 00:06:09,000
I tell you, this Ms Reynolds,
I sat at a séance...

72
00:06:09,167 --> 00:06:10,417
things happened.

73
00:06:10,583 --> 00:06:11,333
Tricks.

74
00:06:11,500 --> 00:06:13,792
I am the smartest person I ever met,
and I can't figure it out.

75
00:06:13,958 --> 00:06:15,250
So, I came to the second.

76
00:06:15,708 --> 00:06:18,208
I need Detective Poirot
to pop this balloon...

77
00:06:18,375 --> 00:06:20,917
or God help me, I will end up a believer.

78
00:06:21,083 --> 00:06:22,083
Spot the con I can't.

79
00:06:22,250 --> 00:06:24,167
Come with me to the orphans' Halloween party.

80
00:06:24,333 --> 00:06:27,458
Then, afterwards, we're invited to a séance.

81
00:06:29,042 --> 00:06:31,125
-Hey, boys, there's a Halloween party.
-You're taking her on a date?

82
00:06:34,500 --> 00:06:37,500
Enjoy the party, kids.
Don't get too scared now.

83
00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:30,125
There it is.

84
00:07:31,250 --> 00:07:33,083
<i>Palazzo Lacrime dei Giovani.</i>

85
00:07:34,125 --> 00:07:36,000
In Venice, we say...

86
00:07:36,167 --> 00:07:38,125
"Every house is haunted...

87
00:07:38,958 --> 00:07:40,250
"or cursed."

88
00:08:00,750 --> 00:08:02,167
Are you ready, children?

89
00:08:02,333 --> 00:08:04,542
Yeah!

90
00:08:09,875 --> 00:08:11,125
Long ago...

91
00:08:11,917 --> 00:08:14,708
this palazzo was an orphanage.

92
00:08:15,833 --> 00:08:20,500
Good doctors and good nurses
took care of good children.

93
00:08:21,208 --> 00:08:22,500
Until the Plague.

94
00:08:24,125 --> 00:08:26,583
Plagues make people afraid...

95
00:08:27,125 --> 00:08:30,417
and fear makes people do terrible things.

96
00:08:34,207 --> 00:08:36,417
Is it not too frightening for the children?

97
00:08:36,957 --> 00:08:39,042
Scary stories make life less scary.

98
00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:45,000
The children soon realized they were alone.

99
00:08:45,708 --> 00:08:48,292
Locked inside to die...

100
00:08:48,458 --> 00:08:51,542
starving, calling, clawing.

101
00:08:54,167 --> 00:08:57,375
Some say the children
are still hiding in this palazzo...

102
00:08:57,542 --> 00:09:00,000
and they want more children to join them.

103
00:09:00,167 --> 00:09:01,542
So, you be careful...

104
00:09:01,833 --> 00:09:04,958
for they want revenge
on the doctors and nurses...

105
00:09:05,125 --> 00:09:06,917
who left them here to die.

106
00:09:08,167 --> 00:09:11,958
Watch out for the mark
of the Children's Vendetta.

107
00:09:14,583 --> 00:09:16,667
No one here is a doctor, are they?

108
00:09:16,833 --> 00:09:17,792
No.

109
00:09:17,958 --> 00:09:18,792
Or a nurse?

110
00:09:19,125 --> 00:09:20,375
-No.
-No?

111
00:09:20,542 --> 00:09:24,542
Then, I guess it's safe to start the party!

112
00:09:35,750 --> 00:09:37,292
Don't! Stop running.

113
00:09:54,667 --> 00:09:55,500
Leopold.

114
00:09:56,208 --> 00:09:57,250
Leopold.

115
00:09:59,292 --> 00:10:03,000
There's an actual, literal party
and you're hiding in a book.

116
00:10:03,167 --> 00:10:05,417
I thought you might play
with other children for once.

117
00:10:05,583 --> 00:10:07,000
Games are frivolous.

118
00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:09,917
The Halloween calls for horror stories.

119
00:10:10,125 --> 00:10:11,792
Don't you think so, Miss Olga?

120
00:10:12,792 --> 00:10:14,458
Don't you at least want some cake?

121
00:10:15,583 --> 00:10:17,125
That's for the orphans.

122
00:10:20,875 --> 00:10:22,083
I'll check on father.

123
00:10:22,250 --> 00:10:23,833
He's no good at parties.

124
00:10:32,583 --> 00:10:33,500
Nun alert.

125
00:10:35,583 --> 00:10:40,125
Ms. Oliver, it's a thrill to have you here.
You're my favorite author.

126
00:10:40,292 --> 00:10:43,583
Your mysteries give me faith
the wicked will meet justice.

127
00:10:44,708 --> 00:10:47,583
Sadly, life doesn't round out so well
as detective fiction.

128
00:10:58,667 --> 00:10:59,625
Yes. <i>Bonsoir.</i>

129
00:11:02,917 --> 00:11:04,083
Are you all right?

130
00:11:04,250 --> 00:11:05,375
It's so high.

131
00:11:05,542 --> 00:11:08,125
I understand.
It's very dark up here, isn't it?

132
00:11:13,792 --> 00:11:15,042
And this is our hostess?

133
00:11:15,208 --> 00:11:18,292
-This is my house.
-The soprano, Rowena Drake.

134
00:11:18,625 --> 00:11:20,708
A diva's life of glamor.

135
00:11:22,250 --> 00:11:23,208
But she lives here.

136
00:11:23,375 --> 00:11:24,917
Where did all the money go?

137
00:11:25,125 --> 00:11:28,542
Everyone who ever lived here
falls victim to some tragedy.

138
00:11:28,708 --> 00:11:30,208
That's the legend, anyway.

139
00:11:30,500 --> 00:11:32,167
The Children's Vendetta.

140
00:11:32,750 --> 00:11:36,500
Someone sees a child's shadow on the wall,
and then darkness comes.

141
00:11:36,667 --> 00:11:37,833
Like her daughter a year ago.

142
00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:41,583
<i>That's who we're to hear from tonight.</i>

143
00:11:41,750 --> 00:11:43,958
The lost girl from beyond.

144
00:11:44,875 --> 00:11:46,792
I will not believe in such things.

145
00:11:47,625 --> 00:11:48,667
We'll see.

146
00:11:49,292 --> 00:11:51,083
Oh, sweetheart, you're gonna be all right.

147
00:11:54,458 --> 00:11:56,292
Ms Rowena, it's leaking again.

148
00:11:57,625 --> 00:11:58,625
Dad?

149
00:11:59,958 --> 00:12:01,083
Are you all right, Dad?

150
00:12:05,708 --> 00:12:06,750
Do you need a pill?

151
00:12:08,375 --> 00:12:09,500
No.

152
00:12:10,917 --> 00:12:11,917
Take some punch, then?

153
00:12:12,792 --> 00:12:14,708
We could go, if you'd prefer.

154
00:12:15,958 --> 00:12:16,875
It's all right.

155
00:12:17,500 --> 00:12:19,333
I promised Rowena I'd stay.

156
00:12:20,333 --> 00:12:21,292
Good.

157
00:12:21,458 --> 00:12:23,333
I was looking forward to the séance.

158
00:12:26,417 --> 00:12:29,167
You do the children a great kindness, <i>madame.</i>

159
00:12:30,292 --> 00:12:31,417
Adults, too.

160
00:12:32,042 --> 00:12:35,333
You care to bob for an apple, Mr. Poirot?
It looks like fun.

161
00:12:36,375 --> 00:12:38,083
The fun is not for me.

162
00:12:45,458 --> 00:12:46,917
I am glad for it.

163
00:12:47,500 --> 00:12:49,792
It's been far too long
since there was laughter in this house.

164
00:12:50,042 --> 00:12:52,250
Well, it is a remarkable palazzo.

165
00:12:52,792 --> 00:12:53,958
You can have it.

166
00:12:55,500 --> 00:12:57,917
See, I can't afford to fix it
and I can't stand to look at it.

167
00:12:59,708 --> 00:13:02,250
And no one will buy it at any price.
Not after...

168
00:13:04,125 --> 00:13:06,708
<i>Please, oh, God, no!</i>

169
00:13:15,000 --> 00:13:16,000
Forgive me.

170
00:13:18,375 --> 00:13:23,500
I had hoped that seeing all these faces
might make it hurt less.

171
00:13:24,667 --> 00:13:25,750
Mrs. Rowena?

172
00:13:25,917 --> 00:13:26,667
Yes?

173
00:13:26,833 --> 00:13:28,042
Your guest is here.

174
00:13:31,500 --> 00:13:33,000
God, I'm actually nervous.

175
00:13:35,667 --> 00:13:37,167
You believe in psychics?

176
00:13:40,583 --> 00:13:42,125
This house made me believe.

177
00:13:43,250 --> 00:13:44,208
It holds voices.

178
00:13:44,833 --> 00:13:45,833
Whispers.

179
00:13:46,625 --> 00:13:47,500
Sobbing.

180
00:13:49,042 --> 00:13:51,708
My daughter used to stay up at night talking.

181
00:13:52,750 --> 00:13:54,208
I thought it was with her dolls.

182
00:13:55,417 --> 00:13:56,583
My daughter...

183
00:13:57,833 --> 00:13:59,292
to hear her voice again.

184
00:14:00,792 --> 00:14:01,750
A word.

185
00:14:03,875 --> 00:14:06,333
I would give that Ms. Reynolds all I have.

186
00:14:45,833 --> 00:14:47,875
This one will be very sad.

187
00:14:49,208 --> 00:14:50,208
Ms. Reynolds.

188
00:14:52,208 --> 00:14:54,875
Everything is prepared for you in the salon.

189
00:14:55,042 --> 00:14:57,000
As your assistant specified.

190
00:14:58,708 --> 00:15:00,917
So noisy, your home.

191
00:15:01,083 --> 00:15:03,458
The children will be gone before we begin.

192
00:15:04,708 --> 00:15:05,750
So many...

193
00:15:06,583 --> 00:15:07,583
everywhere.

194
00:15:09,417 --> 00:15:10,833
Horrible memories.

195
00:15:13,917 --> 00:15:16,125
Your daughter's room is on the third floor.

196
00:15:17,917 --> 00:15:19,000
How did you...?

197
00:15:19,167 --> 00:15:20,583
May we do it there?

198
00:15:21,208 --> 00:15:22,417
Of course.

199
00:15:33,125 --> 00:15:34,667
Ariadne Oliver.

200
00:15:34,833 --> 00:15:36,083
My nemesis.

201
00:15:36,250 --> 00:15:39,125
We meet again. The unholy Ms. Joyce Reynolds.

202
00:15:39,292 --> 00:15:41,125
The press coined that one.

203
00:15:41,542 --> 00:15:42,583
Not sure if I like it.

204
00:15:42,750 --> 00:15:47,500
<i>Bonsoir, madame,</i> I must say
that I expected someone more...

205
00:15:47,667 --> 00:15:48,875
Dramatic? Ridiculous?

206
00:15:49,042 --> 00:15:50,042
An old crone?

207
00:15:50,208 --> 00:15:52,875
Yes, this is the perfect word.

208
00:15:53,042 --> 00:15:54,458
The croney. The old croney.

209
00:15:55,000 --> 00:15:57,042
I didn't ask to be what I am.

210
00:15:57,208 --> 00:16:00,000
Why I like the term "medium,"
sort of middling.

211
00:16:00,167 --> 00:16:03,500
I'm not big or small.
I'm not interesting at all.

212
00:16:03,667 --> 00:16:06,417
But I can talk to the dead.

213
00:16:06,583 --> 00:16:07,417
And you?

214
00:16:07,917 --> 00:16:09,667
I am Hercule Poirot.

215
00:16:09,833 --> 00:16:11,458
You were Hercule Poirot.

216
00:16:11,625 --> 00:16:12,708
The detective.

217
00:16:12,875 --> 00:16:15,625
You're anything but medium.
You're quite famous.

218
00:16:15,792 --> 00:16:18,000
Am I your next quite famous case?

219
00:16:18,417 --> 00:16:20,083
I am retired from cases.

220
00:16:20,958 --> 00:16:23,875
But you are here to discredit me.

221
00:16:24,042 --> 00:16:26,375
Isn't that why the great writer brought you?

222
00:16:29,708 --> 00:16:31,958
I am here as a favor to Ms. Oliver...

223
00:16:32,125 --> 00:16:34,542
who is eager
to divine your means of divination.

224
00:16:34,708 --> 00:16:35,542
I must tell you, <i>madame...</i>

225
00:16:35,708 --> 00:16:39,208
I have been all my life,
uncharmed by your kind.

226
00:16:40,125 --> 00:16:40,875
My kind?

227
00:16:41,042 --> 00:16:43,833
Opportunists who prey on the vulnerable, no?

228
00:16:44,458 --> 00:16:47,333
You don't believe in the soul's endurance
after death?

229
00:16:47,750 --> 00:16:48,917
I have lost my faith.

230
00:16:49,083 --> 00:16:50,125
How sad for you.

231
00:16:50,625 --> 00:16:52,625
Yes, it is most sad. The truth is sad.

232
00:16:56,208 --> 00:16:57,208
Please understand, <i>madame...</i>

233
00:16:57,375 --> 00:16:59,250
I would welcome with open arms...

234
00:16:59,417 --> 00:17:02,708
any honest sign of devil or demon or ghost...

235
00:17:02,875 --> 00:17:05,458
for if there is a ghost, there is a soul.

236
00:17:05,625 --> 00:17:08,041
If there is a soul,
there is a God who made it...

237
00:17:08,208 --> 00:17:10,416
and if we have God, then we have everything.

238
00:17:10,583 --> 00:17:12,583
Meaning, order, justice.

239
00:17:12,750 --> 00:17:14,833
But I have seen too much of the world.

240
00:17:15,000 --> 00:17:17,041
Countless crime, two wars...

241
00:17:17,208 --> 00:17:21,500
the bitter evil of human indifference,
and I conclude, no.

242
00:17:21,666 --> 00:17:23,125
No God, no ghosts.

243
00:17:23,291 --> 00:17:25,625
With respect, no mediums
who can speak to them.

244
00:17:38,292 --> 00:17:39,417
You were saying?

245
00:18:01,333 --> 00:18:03,375
As if I didn't have enough to clean.

246
00:18:03,542 --> 00:18:05,750
Shouldn't even be here past dark.

247
00:18:05,917 --> 00:18:07,333
I don't think they'll bother us.

248
00:18:08,125 --> 00:18:08,917
Who?

249
00:18:11,375 --> 00:18:12,917
What happens past dark?

250
00:18:13,333 --> 00:18:15,583
Well, still a charlatan?

251
00:18:15,750 --> 00:18:19,583
A ceiling weakened by water damage,
unused to rollicking footsteps.

252
00:18:20,208 --> 00:18:22,542
No credit for theatrical timing.

253
00:18:27,625 --> 00:18:29,708
Ms. Alicia's room is up here.

254
00:18:31,792 --> 00:18:33,875
<i>When the lights go on again</i>

255
00:18:35,292 --> 00:18:37,292
<i>All over the world</i>

256
00:18:38,167 --> 00:18:39,042
<i>And the</i>

257
00:18:44,125 --> 00:18:46,250
If I may, please, how did the girl die?

258
00:18:46,417 --> 00:18:47,958
The balcony. The canal.

259
00:18:48,125 --> 00:18:49,417
-Drowning.
-A suicide.

260
00:18:49,583 --> 00:18:52,083
It wasn't her fault. They pushed her to it.

261
00:18:52,250 --> 00:18:53,417
Mrs. Seminoff, please.

262
00:18:53,583 --> 00:18:54,708
What then, Doctor?

263
00:18:54,875 --> 00:18:57,208
You cared for her. You saw.

264
00:19:07,750 --> 00:19:08,792
Wait, please.

265
00:19:11,708 --> 00:19:13,292
Who has been inside here tonight?

266
00:19:13,458 --> 00:19:15,167
Ms. Reynolds, her assistant?

267
00:19:15,333 --> 00:19:17,583
No one. I have the only key.

268
00:19:17,750 --> 00:19:20,667
No one's stepped foot here
since Ms. Alicia passed but me.

269
00:19:22,375 --> 00:19:24,750
To dust a bit and to check on Harry.

270
00:19:25,500 --> 00:19:26,542
Who is Harry?

271
00:19:30,292 --> 00:19:31,208
Her friend.

272
00:19:32,167 --> 00:19:33,417
She told him everything.

273
00:19:35,333 --> 00:19:37,250
He used to speak before she died.

274
00:19:38,708 --> 00:19:39,708
Now, he just cries.

275
00:19:43,667 --> 00:19:46,167
Everything is just as she left it.

276
00:19:49,583 --> 00:19:51,833
Ms. Rowena wouldn't let me move a thing.

277
00:20:17,958 --> 00:20:20,417
<i>Alicia and her were inseparable.</i>

278
00:20:20,583 --> 00:20:22,583
-Can't catch me!
-Yes, I can!

279
00:20:22,750 --> 00:20:24,625
<i>This palazzo was their oasis.</i>

280
00:20:25,375 --> 00:20:28,083
<i>Only a week at a time
between travel for the opera.</i>

281
00:20:28,958 --> 00:20:32,000
<i>But Alicia had the children's ghosts
for company.</i>

282
00:20:33,292 --> 00:20:35,333
<i>She grew so beautiful.</i>

283
00:20:35,750 --> 00:20:38,125
<i>Then she met her chef, Maxime.</i>

284
00:20:40,125 --> 00:20:41,958
<i>They were engaged so fast.</i>

285
00:20:43,000 --> 00:20:44,375
<i>So in love.</i>

286
00:20:44,750 --> 00:20:47,125
Then, she and her fiancé quarreled.

287
00:20:48,250 --> 00:20:50,125
She moved back here to the palazzo.

288
00:20:50,292 --> 00:20:53,500
That's when she started to see the children.

289
00:20:53,667 --> 00:20:55,583
They wanted her for themselves.

290
00:20:56,500 --> 00:20:59,083
She suffered her last weeks in that bed...

291
00:20:59,417 --> 00:21:00,583
<i>seeing things.</i>

292
00:21:00,750 --> 00:21:02,167
<i>Shadows.</i>

293
00:21:02,333 --> 00:21:04,542
<i>The children are calling her, she said.</i>

294
00:21:04,708 --> 00:21:07,167
"They want you here with them."

295
00:21:07,333 --> 00:21:08,458
<i>They drove her mad.</i>

296
00:21:11,583 --> 00:21:14,125
Ms. Rowena didn't leave her side...

297
00:21:14,292 --> 00:21:16,792
<i>begging the spirits to let her be.</i>

298
00:21:18,583 --> 00:21:19,625
They didn't.

299
00:21:24,292 --> 00:21:25,417
<i>They left the mark...</i>

300
00:21:26,083 --> 00:21:27,625
<i>of the Children's Vendetta.</i>

301
00:21:28,250 --> 00:21:30,667
The police said the cuts were from the fall.

302
00:21:32,042 --> 00:21:33,375
The police...

303
00:21:34,083 --> 00:21:35,792
Listening.

304
00:21:35,958 --> 00:21:39,042
Now, this woman,
she wants to disturb Alicia's soul.

305
00:21:40,125 --> 00:21:41,167
Listening.

306
00:21:41,333 --> 00:21:43,708
And I am telling you, <i>monsieur,
</i>this is not right.

307
00:21:45,250 --> 00:21:47,542
This is against nature and the Good Lord.

308
00:21:48,583 --> 00:21:50,250
Somebody will have to pay.

309
00:21:51,375 --> 00:21:53,375
Listening.

310
00:21:55,833 --> 00:21:58,000
So much pain here.

311
00:22:10,167 --> 00:22:11,000
Baba.

312
00:22:12,375 --> 00:22:13,125
Yeah.

313
00:22:14,042 --> 00:22:15,500
Baba the Rabbit.

314
00:22:27,708 --> 00:22:29,000
Maxime, no.

315
00:22:29,167 --> 00:22:33,625
"Maxime, be at Palazzo, 10 p.m.
Important news about Alicia Drake."

316
00:22:33,792 --> 00:22:35,042
-I was invited.
-Not by me.

317
00:22:35,208 --> 00:22:37,000
You're always trying to kick me out, Rowena.

318
00:22:37,167 --> 00:22:38,292
It's never worked before.

319
00:22:38,458 --> 00:22:40,417
If there's something to hear, I'll hear it.

320
00:22:40,583 --> 00:22:42,208
Well, tell that to your new fiancée.

321
00:22:42,375 --> 00:22:44,958
Waited a whole six months after Alicia died.

322
00:22:45,125 --> 00:22:46,250
I hear she's insensibly rich.

323
00:22:46,417 --> 00:22:48,833
Land-grants-from-King-George rich.

324
00:22:49,000 --> 00:22:51,208
Bought me my own bistro on Madison Avenue.

325
00:22:51,375 --> 00:22:54,542
I'm gonna be a New Yorker and a rich one...

326
00:22:54,708 --> 00:22:56,333
which is the only kind to be.

327
00:22:56,500 --> 00:22:58,167
You should come visit.
I'll buy you a hot dog.

328
00:22:58,583 --> 00:22:59,458
Should I throw him out?

329
00:22:59,625 --> 00:23:00,625
Try it.

330
00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:03,292
Give me the excuse.

331
00:23:04,458 --> 00:23:07,208
Do whatever you want, Maxime. You always do.

332
00:23:09,042 --> 00:23:10,375
I lost too, Rowena.

333
00:23:16,250 --> 00:23:17,708
How many are we? Nine or 10?

334
00:23:18,083 --> 00:23:20,708
Oh, I don't know.
Take 12 chairs, I think.

335
00:23:21,125 --> 00:23:22,417
A full house.

336
00:23:22,583 --> 00:23:25,542
A séance? Christ in a hat!
Is that what this is?

337
00:23:32,083 --> 00:23:33,542
{\an8}A typewriter.

338
00:23:34,250 --> 00:23:36,917
No Ouija board? Crystal ball?

339
00:23:37,500 --> 00:23:40,167
I think myself more secretary than anything.

340
00:23:40,583 --> 00:23:42,250
The voices speak...

341
00:23:44,625 --> 00:23:46,333
and I take dictation.

342
00:23:51,542 --> 00:23:54,833
Leopold, perhaps go and read in the library.

343
00:23:55,000 --> 00:23:56,417
I want to see Alicia.

344
00:23:57,167 --> 00:23:58,292
She was my friend too.

345
00:23:58,458 --> 00:24:00,042
You're not scared of ghosts?

346
00:24:00,208 --> 00:24:02,042
I talk to ghosts here all the time.

347
00:24:02,208 --> 00:24:03,208
Do you?

348
00:24:04,958 --> 00:24:06,333
They say you're a fake.

349
00:24:22,625 --> 00:24:25,833
No one touch me
until the trance has ended.

350
00:24:27,542 --> 00:24:29,417
Alicia Drake...

351
00:24:29,583 --> 00:24:32,667
I believe it was you who called to me.

352
00:24:40,250 --> 00:24:41,917
Too many spirits.

353
00:24:42,458 --> 00:24:45,750
This house is spilling with the dead.

354
00:24:46,542 --> 00:24:49,083
Some souls can't let go.

355
00:24:49,250 --> 00:24:50,500
Do we stop, Ms. Reynolds?

356
00:24:50,917 --> 00:24:51,917
No.

357
00:24:52,625 --> 00:24:56,667
If someone wants to be heard, we are here.

358
00:24:57,417 --> 00:24:58,417
Listening.

359
00:24:59,833 --> 00:25:04,333
Spirits, you scream and shout
and no one hears.

360
00:25:04,500 --> 00:25:05,917
We do now.

361
00:25:06,833 --> 00:25:08,458
Alicia Drake...

362
00:25:08,625 --> 00:25:10,917
find your voice.

363
00:25:12,250 --> 00:25:14,542
It just got cold.
Does anyone else feel a chill?

364
00:25:14,708 --> 00:25:16,375
Is someone there?

365
00:25:22,417 --> 00:25:23,417
"Y."

366
00:25:23,833 --> 00:25:24,792
Yes.

367
00:25:25,583 --> 00:25:26,958
She didn't touch the key, I swear.

368
00:25:27,125 --> 00:25:28,875
She must have. You can't all be such fools.

369
00:25:29,042 --> 00:25:30,917
This is wrong. This is very wrong.

370
00:25:31,083 --> 00:25:33,417
Who is there? Alicia Drake.

371
00:25:34,083 --> 00:25:35,958
Listening.

372
00:25:36,125 --> 00:25:37,458
We are here.

373
00:25:37,958 --> 00:25:39,250
Listening.

374
00:25:39,667 --> 00:25:41,333
It is the hallow tide.

375
00:25:41,500 --> 00:25:42,542
We are close.

376
00:25:42,708 --> 00:25:44,458
Your spirit is close...

377
00:25:44,625 --> 00:25:46,042
your voice is loud.

378
00:25:48,667 --> 00:25:49,542
Alicia.

379
00:25:50,375 --> 00:25:51,208
"A." Alicia.

380
00:25:51,583 --> 00:25:54,417
Alicia, I feel you are in pain.

381
00:25:54,583 --> 00:25:56,583
Does it hurt? Please, tell me.

382
00:25:57,792 --> 00:25:59,250
Did someone hurt you?

383
00:26:00,250 --> 00:26:01,250
-Yes.
-No!

384
00:26:02,208 --> 00:26:03,375
Poirot, let her finish!

385
00:26:03,792 --> 00:26:07,125
No! First, let us meet
a secret confederate...

386
00:26:07,292 --> 00:26:08,792
in the chimney.

387
00:26:10,750 --> 00:26:12,208
Nicholas, are you hurt?

388
00:26:12,375 --> 00:26:13,417
I'm all right.

389
00:26:14,000 --> 00:26:17,333
Nicholas. The second assistant.

390
00:26:17,500 --> 00:26:18,625
I am pleased to meet you.

391
00:26:18,792 --> 00:26:22,292
By your similar and piercing green eyes...

392
00:26:22,458 --> 00:26:25,542
I take you
for the first assistant's half-brother.

393
00:26:26,333 --> 00:26:28,250
A magnetic switch.

394
00:26:30,583 --> 00:26:32,917
<i>Et voilà,</i> the talking typewriter.

395
00:26:33,083 --> 00:26:33,917
A fake?

396
00:26:34,083 --> 00:26:36,792
Mrs. Seminoff, your dedication
to housekeeping could be improved.

397
00:26:36,958 --> 00:26:38,042
No one had been in this room except you...

398
00:26:38,208 --> 00:26:40,958
yet my new friend
left his footstep in the fireplace.

399
00:26:41,125 --> 00:26:44,250
The bright scratch at the keyhole
indicates a lock recently picked.

400
00:26:44,750 --> 00:26:46,667
Ms. Oliver, you must find a new subject
for your book.

401
00:26:46,833 --> 00:26:48,625
Ms. Drake, I am sorry for your loss...

402
00:26:48,792 --> 00:26:51,250
but this oracle is a fake.

403
00:26:53,792 --> 00:26:54,875
No!

404
00:27:15,583 --> 00:27:16,417
Where's Baba?

405
00:27:16,583 --> 00:27:17,417
Alicia.

406
00:27:17,583 --> 00:27:19,500
Did someone take him?
Did you?

407
00:27:19,667 --> 00:27:20,583
I didn't touch anything.

408
00:27:27,958 --> 00:27:29,375
Alicia.

409
00:27:30,250 --> 00:27:31,333
Mama.

410
00:27:34,333 --> 00:27:35,292
Mama?

411
00:27:37,708 --> 00:27:38,708
Thirsty.

412
00:27:40,208 --> 00:27:41,583
So thirsty.

413
00:27:43,083 --> 00:27:44,208
Alicia?

414
00:27:47,875 --> 00:27:49,208
Hurt.

415
00:27:50,000 --> 00:27:51,375
Why would you leave me?

416
00:27:51,917 --> 00:27:52,750
No.

417
00:27:53,667 --> 00:27:55,917
I don't want...

418
00:27:56,125 --> 00:27:58,208
I don't want to die.

419
00:27:58,375 --> 00:27:59,417
What is happening?

420
00:28:00,208 --> 00:28:01,292
Alicia...

421
00:28:01,708 --> 00:28:03,125
showing me.

422
00:28:03,292 --> 00:28:04,375
I see her...

423
00:28:04,833 --> 00:28:06,125
on the balcony.

424
00:28:06,292 --> 00:28:07,292
Not alone.

425
00:28:07,792 --> 00:28:08,917
She didn't jump.

426
00:28:09,083 --> 00:28:10,625
Murderer!

427
00:28:11,750 --> 00:28:13,750
You killed me. You killed me.

428
00:28:14,542 --> 00:28:15,167
Who?

429
00:28:16,792 --> 00:28:18,583
Show me. Who?

430
00:28:18,750 --> 00:28:21,292
You killed me! You killed me!

431
00:28:22,083 --> 00:28:24,417
-You killed me!
-Who hurt you?

432
00:28:24,583 --> 00:28:25,917
You killed me!

433
00:28:26,083 --> 00:28:27,750
-You killed me!
-Show me!

434
00:28:27,917 --> 00:28:28,917
You killed me!

435
00:28:29,083 --> 00:28:30,000
Who hurt you?

436
00:28:30,542 --> 00:28:31,875
What happened?

437
00:28:33,083 --> 00:28:34,083
Murder!

438
00:28:58,375 --> 00:28:59,792
Satanic.

439
00:29:00,083 --> 00:29:01,667
She truly is unholy.

440
00:29:02,667 --> 00:29:04,208
It was Alicia's voice.

441
00:29:05,292 --> 00:29:06,750
Someone must have killed her.

442
00:29:07,542 --> 00:29:08,958
We can't prove any of it was real.

443
00:29:09,125 --> 00:29:11,042
-Then, what was it?
-Showmanship.

444
00:29:11,208 --> 00:29:12,625
Theater. Catching us in a group hysteria.

445
00:29:12,792 --> 00:29:14,375
That wasn't <i>War of the Worlds</i> on the radio.

446
00:29:14,542 --> 00:29:16,792
The damn doors blew open. I can't explain it.

447
00:29:16,958 --> 00:29:17,958
I can.

448
00:29:18,583 --> 00:29:20,083
That was my daughter.

449
00:29:22,417 --> 00:29:23,542
Oh, no.

450
00:29:23,708 --> 00:29:25,708
Don't you dare leave without saying it.

451
00:29:25,875 --> 00:29:27,792
You saw what I saw, and what you saw was...

452
00:29:27,958 --> 00:29:28,917
Was fake.

453
00:29:29,083 --> 00:29:31,917
Real. That woman is proof. Living proof.

454
00:29:32,417 --> 00:29:33,667
There's a title.

455
00:29:33,833 --> 00:29:36,542
Sure as hell, she's my next book
and sure as hell, it's a hit.

456
00:29:36,708 --> 00:29:38,250
A big beer book.

457
00:29:38,667 --> 00:29:41,000
Good God, I have to start writing right away.

458
00:29:41,167 --> 00:29:43,208
The woman who stumped Hercule Poirot.

459
00:29:43,375 --> 00:29:47,250
I admit I cannot solve all of her methods
in this moment, but of course I will.

460
00:29:47,417 --> 00:29:48,250
You won't.

461
00:29:48,417 --> 00:29:50,167
Come on, you should be relieved.

462
00:29:50,333 --> 00:29:54,292
And how incredible to believe,
to know the world has mystery.

463
00:29:54,458 --> 00:29:57,375
A God who cares enough to make abiding souls.

464
00:29:57,542 --> 00:29:59,583
-After death comes...
-Nothing.

465
00:29:59,750 --> 00:30:00,958
Something.

466
00:30:02,458 --> 00:30:04,750
If there was a God,
he would not break his rule for her.

467
00:30:14,167 --> 00:30:15,333
You're all right.

468
00:30:16,625 --> 00:30:18,542
I hope you'll be back tomorrow.

469
00:30:18,708 --> 00:30:21,292
Rowena made me promise to sit for her again.

470
00:30:27,042 --> 00:30:31,250
And Miss Oliver says I should prepare
to be quite famous.

471
00:30:31,417 --> 00:30:33,625
<i>-Dottore,</i> I'll find us a boat.
<i>-Grazie.</i>

472
00:30:34,042 --> 00:30:36,833
These spirits were particularly savage.

473
00:30:37,792 --> 00:30:40,167
Sittings always exact a price.

474
00:30:40,833 --> 00:30:42,333
As I'm sure do you.

475
00:30:43,667 --> 00:30:46,625
You are amongst frauds, the gifted one.

476
00:30:47,125 --> 00:30:48,792
I wish I was a fraud.

477
00:30:49,667 --> 00:30:51,167
Be less painful.

478
00:30:52,208 --> 00:30:54,625
I think you know something of this, <i>monsieur.</i>

479
00:30:55,083 --> 00:30:57,625
Someone dies and we comfort the grieving...

480
00:30:57,792 --> 00:31:00,083
with secrets plain to us.

481
00:31:00,667 --> 00:31:03,667
Both creatures who speak for the dead...

482
00:31:04,042 --> 00:31:06,875
who know the dead too well, I think.

483
00:31:08,208 --> 00:31:13,083
Imagine a war nurse who hears ghosts...

484
00:31:14,083 --> 00:31:16,542
surrounded by screaming.

485
00:31:17,625 --> 00:31:19,042
On her ward...

486
00:31:19,208 --> 00:31:20,667
inside her mind.

487
00:31:21,375 --> 00:31:25,333
Wave after wave of the dying and the dead.

488
00:31:26,458 --> 00:31:29,417
And the only thing that stopped the pain...

489
00:31:30,083 --> 00:31:32,583
was telling the mourners what I heard.

490
00:31:32,750 --> 00:31:36,000
Ease their suffering as only I can.

491
00:31:37,917 --> 00:31:39,250
You'd begrudge that?

492
00:31:39,417 --> 00:31:43,583
You made a mother believe
her daughter's soul is in torment.

493
00:31:43,750 --> 00:31:45,167
This is not generous.

494
00:31:45,333 --> 00:31:46,583
Not gentle, not humble.

495
00:31:46,750 --> 00:31:47,792
I felt pain.

496
00:31:47,958 --> 00:31:49,417
I saw a murder...

497
00:31:49,583 --> 00:31:51,750
Did you see who killed Alicia Drake?

498
00:31:51,917 --> 00:31:54,000
It was not revealed. Maybe tomorrow.

499
00:31:54,167 --> 00:31:55,333
A lucrative convenience.

500
00:31:55,500 --> 00:31:57,917
-Why is this...?
-Terrors for children, Ms. Reynolds.

501
00:31:58,083 --> 00:31:59,708
You might learn from them.

502
00:32:00,792 --> 00:32:02,208
Children can suffer...

503
00:32:02,917 --> 00:32:04,750
as much as those orphans...

504
00:32:04,917 --> 00:32:08,458
and still laugh and play and bob for apples.

505
00:32:09,000 --> 00:32:10,167
They're alive.

506
00:32:10,917 --> 00:32:11,750
But you...

507
00:32:12,125 --> 00:32:14,167
Death everywhere you went.

508
00:32:14,958 --> 00:32:16,500
All your life.

509
00:32:17,625 --> 00:32:18,792
Soldiers...

510
00:32:19,875 --> 00:32:20,875
friends...

511
00:32:23,000 --> 00:32:24,000
Katherine.

512
00:32:28,333 --> 00:32:30,042
We shall not meet again.

513
00:32:32,167 --> 00:32:34,042
You persist that you are real.

514
00:32:34,750 --> 00:32:38,042
And if I'm not, who's getting hurt?

515
00:32:38,208 --> 00:32:40,750
Magic won't come unless you call it in...

516
00:32:40,917 --> 00:32:44,292
unless it really is all true.

517
00:32:52,167 --> 00:32:53,792
Lighten up, pal.

518
00:32:55,042 --> 00:32:56,667
You might have fun.

519
00:32:58,000 --> 00:32:59,625
I'd say to remember me...

520
00:33:01,375 --> 00:33:02,583
but you will.

521
00:34:22,917 --> 00:34:24,000
"Lighten up."

522
00:35:10,042 --> 00:35:11,250
<i>Monsieur</i> Poirot!

523
00:35:12,792 --> 00:35:13,917
<i>Monsieur</i> Poirot!

524
00:35:16,917 --> 00:35:19,333
<i>Monsieur</i> Poirot, can you hear me?

525
00:35:19,500 --> 00:35:20,583
Who did this?

526
00:35:21,583 --> 00:35:24,208
I left Ms. Reynolds...

527
00:35:26,042 --> 00:35:28,333
I stopped by the apples. Silly.

528
00:35:30,750 --> 00:35:32,042
I lifted my mask.

529
00:35:35,042 --> 00:35:36,458
It was her mask.

530
00:35:38,458 --> 00:35:40,292
Where is Ms. Reynolds?

531
00:35:45,250 --> 00:35:46,167
What was that?

532
00:35:46,500 --> 00:35:47,500
-What's going on?
-What was that?

533
00:35:47,667 --> 00:35:48,667
-Was that her?
-What's happening?

534
00:35:51,417 --> 00:35:52,417
What?

535
00:36:20,458 --> 00:36:21,750
I will call my old station.

536
00:36:22,333 --> 00:36:23,625
I should know the man on duty.

537
00:36:26,750 --> 00:36:28,333
I thought my cupboards were bare.

538
00:36:28,500 --> 00:36:31,167
No, I scrounged up some tea
left from the party.

539
00:36:31,333 --> 00:36:33,792
Found your honey in the linen closet.

540
00:36:33,958 --> 00:36:34,875
<i>Merci.</i>

541
00:36:37,375 --> 00:36:38,333
Vitale Portfoglio.

542
00:36:38,500 --> 00:36:39,500
What do we do?

543
00:36:40,333 --> 00:36:41,458
She was our ticket.

544
00:36:43,208 --> 00:36:44,458
We'll get there without her.

545
00:36:45,208 --> 00:36:46,042
I promise.

546
00:36:47,625 --> 00:36:49,292
None of you saw anyone on the stairs?

547
00:36:49,708 --> 00:36:51,125
Some things can't be seen.

548
00:36:51,292 --> 00:36:52,417
Maybe she jumped.

549
00:36:53,125 --> 00:36:54,125
She seemed the type.

550
00:36:54,292 --> 00:36:56,958
No. Not Ms. Reynolds. Never.

551
00:36:57,125 --> 00:36:58,333
She talked about a murder.

552
00:36:58,500 --> 00:36:59,500
She could have known something.

553
00:36:59,667 --> 00:37:01,250
You still think she's real?

554
00:37:01,417 --> 00:37:04,167
Please. She made up that murder idea
to impress a famous author...

555
00:37:04,333 --> 00:37:06,125
and to bait the hook on a new income stream.

556
00:37:06,292 --> 00:37:08,000
-Then, why is she dead?
-Gravity.

557
00:37:08,167 --> 00:37:10,333
She spoke in Alicia's voice.

558
00:37:10,500 --> 00:37:13,458
Don't look at me. I was being interrogated
by your lady writer.

559
00:37:13,625 --> 00:37:15,875
Ask her. Then, ask the doctor where he was.

560
00:37:16,042 --> 00:37:17,792
Sick bastard already killed here once.

561
00:37:17,958 --> 00:37:20,167
It wasn't either of them.
You know what it was.

562
00:37:20,583 --> 00:37:22,583
Hateful things live in this house.

563
00:37:22,917 --> 00:37:25,167
That woman called to them and they answered.

564
00:37:27,292 --> 00:37:29,875
In the war, before she did sittings.

565
00:37:30,042 --> 00:37:31,542
Ms. Reynolds was in the British Army.

566
00:37:31,708 --> 00:37:34,125
She served with the camps at Malta.

567
00:37:34,292 --> 00:37:36,042
-She was a nurse.
-A nurse.

568
00:37:36,208 --> 00:37:38,333
The Children's Vendetta.

569
00:37:40,167 --> 00:37:41,208
The canals are not safe.

570
00:37:41,375 --> 00:37:43,542
We can't get a boat here
until the storm clears.

571
00:37:43,708 --> 00:37:44,708
When will that be?

572
00:37:44,875 --> 00:37:46,000
It's out of police control, <i>signora.</i>

573
00:37:46,167 --> 00:37:48,125
Well, I won't sit here and wait.

574
00:37:48,292 --> 00:37:50,958
I never spent the night in this house before
and I won't now.

575
00:37:53,208 --> 00:37:54,625
-Hey!
-What's going on?

576
00:37:54,792 --> 00:37:57,375
-Sir, you can't do this.
-You can't lock us in here.

577
00:37:57,542 --> 00:37:58,375
What are you doing?

578
00:37:58,542 --> 00:37:59,417
You can't trap us here.

579
00:38:03,083 --> 00:38:06,083
A medium boasts of having a vision of murder.
Now, she is dead.

580
00:38:06,250 --> 00:38:07,833
One of you felt her eyes upon you.

581
00:38:08,000 --> 00:38:09,583
Killed her, tried to kill me.

582
00:38:09,750 --> 00:38:11,750
No one should leave this place
until I know who.

583
00:38:12,167 --> 00:38:14,333
<i>Commissario,</i> stand here
and see these gates do not open.

584
00:38:14,500 --> 00:38:16,542
<i>Monsieur</i> Gerard, stand here
and watch the <i>commissario.</i>

585
00:38:16,708 --> 00:38:18,167
You suspect me? I was a cop.

586
00:38:18,333 --> 00:38:20,083
All the more reason to suspect you.

587
00:38:20,250 --> 00:38:21,333
They already killed tonight.

588
00:38:21,500 --> 00:38:22,875
You will all have your chance to speak.

589
00:38:23,042 --> 00:38:24,625
And call back the police.

590
00:38:24,792 --> 00:38:28,375
Tell them Hercule Poirot is on the case.

591
00:38:44,792 --> 00:38:46,125
Is this where she...?

592
00:38:48,250 --> 00:38:49,583
The attempt on my life occurred...

593
00:38:49,750 --> 00:38:53,542
at approximately two minutes
after the chime of midnight.

594
00:38:53,708 --> 00:38:55,708
You were the first to find the body at...?

595
00:38:57,208 --> 00:38:59,708
Don't you dare look at me
like a murder suspect.

596
00:38:59,875 --> 00:39:01,042
We're old friends.

597
00:39:01,583 --> 00:39:03,750
Every murderer is somebody's old friend.

598
00:39:03,958 --> 00:39:07,542
But you have written too many clever murders
to fall at the foot of your first victim.

599
00:39:07,708 --> 00:39:11,833
And you are so far viably alibied
by the chef for the time...

600
00:39:12,000 --> 00:39:14,792
which is why I shall now ask you to assist me
in my investigation.

601
00:39:14,958 --> 00:39:15,917
When do we start?

602
00:39:16,125 --> 00:39:17,958
When you collect for me our host.

603
00:39:23,208 --> 00:39:24,583
I knew you were in there somewhere.

604
00:39:24,750 --> 00:39:26,917
All it took was a corpse and look at you.

605
00:39:27,083 --> 00:39:29,000
Hercule Poirot all over again.

606
00:39:34,792 --> 00:39:36,083
Baba the Rabbit?

607
00:39:36,833 --> 00:39:37,833
Poirot!

608
00:39:38,583 --> 00:39:39,958
How the hell?

609
00:39:49,333 --> 00:39:50,750
Baba the Rabbit?

610
00:39:51,250 --> 00:39:52,375
Are you sure?

611
00:39:53,750 --> 00:39:55,292
Under that mess of paintings?

612
00:39:55,750 --> 00:39:58,083
Where were you when Ms. Reynolds...?

613
00:39:58,250 --> 00:39:59,625
We were in the music room.

614
00:39:59,792 --> 00:40:01,083
And when was that?

615
00:40:01,250 --> 00:40:03,750
Midnight, just before.

616
00:40:04,458 --> 00:40:05,917
And then you came running?

617
00:40:07,125 --> 00:40:09,792
If I may ask,
what is directly above this balcony?

618
00:40:13,042 --> 00:40:15,292
The garden was our secret hideaway.

619
00:40:17,167 --> 00:40:19,125
It was my daughter's favorite place.

620
00:40:19,958 --> 00:40:21,458
I let it all die.

621
00:40:22,958 --> 00:40:24,250
Our bees.

622
00:40:25,958 --> 00:40:27,083
We made honey.

623
00:40:28,042 --> 00:40:30,208
My daughter, she used to tease me.

624
00:40:30,833 --> 00:40:33,750
"All this effort
for a teaspoon of wildflower honey...

625
00:40:33,917 --> 00:40:35,792
"that we can buy for six lira."

626
00:40:37,542 --> 00:40:39,583
I held hope they'd survive, but...

627
00:40:42,625 --> 00:40:43,667
Poor things.

628
00:40:45,292 --> 00:40:48,208
How did you come to invite Ms. Reynolds
to your home?

629
00:40:48,375 --> 00:40:50,083
Couldn't we get out of the rain for this?

630
00:40:50,250 --> 00:40:53,250
Oh, <i>mais non,
</i>let us enjoy this secret garden.

631
00:40:53,417 --> 00:40:55,583
Well, I read about her in a magazine.

632
00:40:55,875 --> 00:40:57,000
I didn't think much of it.

633
00:40:57,167 --> 00:41:00,292
And then, out of the blue one day,
she wrote to me.

634
00:41:01,000 --> 00:41:02,125
A letter from a stranger.

635
00:41:02,292 --> 00:41:04,750
But she would know you from the opera, no?

636
00:41:04,917 --> 00:41:06,625
But it was the name she used.

637
00:41:07,333 --> 00:41:10,333
She said that she heard a message
from Aspasia.

638
00:41:12,500 --> 00:41:14,833
That was a pet name that
she used to use for me.

639
00:41:15,000 --> 00:41:18,292
Aspasia, the great love
of the King of Pontus...

640
00:41:18,458 --> 00:41:19,458
from <i>Mitridate.</i>

641
00:41:19,625 --> 00:41:20,917
It was Mozart's first opera.

642
00:41:21,083 --> 00:41:22,417
It was my first starring role.

643
00:41:23,292 --> 00:41:25,708
Alicia was born two months before, and...

644
00:41:28,125 --> 00:41:30,083
I found my voice because of her.

645
00:41:34,333 --> 00:41:35,708
And ever since...

646
00:41:37,208 --> 00:41:42,500
I can't sing without knowing that she's
waiting in my dressing room.

647
00:41:43,333 --> 00:41:44,375
I still can't.

648
00:41:44,542 --> 00:41:46,292
You will never perform again?

649
00:41:46,917 --> 00:41:49,167
There is no music without her.

650
00:41:51,042 --> 00:41:54,000
I turned down marriage proposals
without even a thought.

651
00:41:56,000 --> 00:41:58,500
She said yes to her first.

652
00:41:59,542 --> 00:42:01,875
To the charming chef Maxime Gerard.

653
00:42:02,333 --> 00:42:05,458
He is a pompous ass out
to marry the biggest purse he can find.

654
00:42:08,208 --> 00:42:09,458
When they got engaged...

655
00:42:11,292 --> 00:42:13,000
I tore out every flower in the garden...

656
00:42:13,167 --> 00:42:14,917
and I got on a boat to Istanbul.

657
00:42:15,708 --> 00:42:18,625
But he must have found
that I wasn't as rich as he'd thought.

658
00:42:20,000 --> 00:42:23,042
One of the best days of my life was when
he said that he had met someone else.

659
00:42:23,500 --> 00:42:24,958
And that he called the whole thing off.

660
00:42:28,333 --> 00:42:31,292
But that's when the worst days started.

661
00:42:31,458 --> 00:42:32,625
Her illness.

662
00:42:33,458 --> 00:42:35,250
Her mind was on fire.

663
00:42:38,542 --> 00:42:40,375
She was like a little girl again.

664
00:42:45,333 --> 00:42:46,542
Thank you, Ms. Drake.

665
00:42:47,417 --> 00:42:48,417
Ms. Oliver.

666
00:42:55,250 --> 00:42:57,375
I'm a terrible housekeeper.

667
00:42:57,542 --> 00:42:58,875
I'm all she could get.

668
00:42:59,875 --> 00:43:01,292
Superstitious city.

669
00:43:01,917 --> 00:43:03,583
But you are superstitious, too.

670
00:43:04,042 --> 00:43:07,500
This palazzo you believe is haunted, yes?

671
00:43:08,500 --> 00:43:11,417
Ms. Rowena may own it,
but the spirits possess it.

672
00:43:11,583 --> 00:43:13,292
And where were you, <i>Madame</i> Seminoff...

673
00:43:13,458 --> 00:43:17,708
when these murderous ghosts
turned Joyce Reynolds into one of their own?

674
00:43:18,125 --> 00:43:20,167
Make light, go on.

675
00:43:21,208 --> 00:43:23,167
Why do you ask all these questions?

676
00:43:23,792 --> 00:43:24,875
I did nothing wrong.

677
00:43:25,042 --> 00:43:27,250
It's what he does. Or used to do.

678
00:43:27,958 --> 00:43:30,708
I'm helping him, you know,
he's back at it for the moment.

679
00:43:32,000 --> 00:43:32,833
It's going well.

680
00:43:33,417 --> 00:43:34,792
What is it that you do?

681
00:43:35,500 --> 00:43:36,708
What is it that I do?

682
00:43:38,708 --> 00:43:40,500
When a crime has been committed...

683
00:43:40,667 --> 00:43:43,667
I can, by application of order and method...

684
00:43:43,833 --> 00:43:46,375
and the slow extinguishing of my own soul...

685
00:43:46,542 --> 00:43:49,625
find without fail or doubt, whodunit.

686
00:43:50,167 --> 00:43:51,375
Like in your books...

687
00:43:51,708 --> 00:43:53,708
your silly detective from Finland...

688
00:43:53,875 --> 00:43:55,250
he's making lists.

689
00:43:56,875 --> 00:43:58,625
Do you base yourself on her writing?

690
00:44:00,292 --> 00:44:03,667
Would you mind telling us
where you were at midnight?

691
00:44:03,833 --> 00:44:04,917
For the lists.

692
00:44:05,083 --> 00:44:07,417
In the music room with Ms. Rowena.

693
00:44:07,583 --> 00:44:10,917
And she joined you there at midnight.

694
00:44:11,083 --> 00:44:12,917
You are absolutely sure of this?

695
00:44:13,083 --> 00:44:16,208
I was watching the clock
and was grateful that she did.

696
00:44:16,375 --> 00:44:18,958
But you did not approve
of the fortune teller.

697
00:44:19,542 --> 00:44:23,542
I believe you called her "satanic."

698
00:44:24,125 --> 00:44:28,750
Your mind goes, perhaps to Exodus...

699
00:44:29,375 --> 00:44:30,750
22:18?

700
00:44:33,667 --> 00:44:36,542
"Do not suffer a sorceress to live."

701
00:44:36,833 --> 00:44:38,792
The Bible warns against it with reason.

702
00:44:38,958 --> 00:44:41,000
A witch on her Sabbath?

703
00:44:42,292 --> 00:44:44,083
To be drowned or burned...

704
00:44:44,250 --> 00:44:46,292
or thrown off a high balcony?

705
00:44:46,458 --> 00:44:47,500
No, I am no vigilante.

706
00:44:47,667 --> 00:44:49,083
But your scripture is keen.

707
00:44:49,250 --> 00:44:51,583
No less than a strict Vulgate Latin.

708
00:44:51,750 --> 00:44:53,750
Not the product of a parochial school...

709
00:44:55,292 --> 00:44:58,167
but perhaps a convent.

710
00:45:03,083 --> 00:45:06,083
I found my call to be a nun
before I could read.

711
00:45:07,542 --> 00:45:11,375
I wore the habit nine years
at <i>Ospedale della Pietà.</i>

712
00:45:17,208 --> 00:45:19,042
And then I met Mr. Seminoff.

713
00:45:19,208 --> 00:45:20,792
He came to fix the roof.

714
00:45:24,125 --> 00:45:25,583
God sets challenges.

715
00:45:25,750 --> 00:45:27,208
You fell in love and forgot God.

716
00:45:27,375 --> 00:45:28,792
No, it's not that simple.

717
00:45:29,625 --> 00:45:30,833
One final question.

718
00:45:31,000 --> 00:45:32,542
For the lists, of course.

719
00:45:48,292 --> 00:45:50,917
<i>Pardon,</i> I believed I heard something.

720
00:45:52,208 --> 00:45:54,708
You who fear the dark arts so...

721
00:45:54,875 --> 00:45:57,708
why would you even attend a séance?

722
00:45:58,250 --> 00:46:02,042
An abominated act here at night,
when you are loath to remain?

723
00:46:04,083 --> 00:46:06,333
There's only one to whom I must answer.

724
00:46:08,708 --> 00:46:10,042
And that is not you.

725
00:46:23,208 --> 00:46:24,208
Poirot.

726
00:46:33,667 --> 00:46:37,542
Mrs. Olga Seminoff, as a nun,
what was your saint's name?

727
00:46:38,625 --> 00:46:39,625
Maria.

728
00:46:49,042 --> 00:46:51,167
You won't get far on a broken leg.

729
00:46:58,292 --> 00:47:00,333
Jagged weapon. Not too sharp.

730
00:47:02,167 --> 00:47:03,167
Nails, maybe.

731
00:47:03,333 --> 00:47:05,375
And no other marks on her.

732
00:47:05,542 --> 00:47:07,417
Other than the obvious.

733
00:47:15,708 --> 00:47:18,542
Nothing else unusual about her condition?

734
00:47:19,125 --> 00:47:21,500
Impaled on classical art might be enough.

735
00:47:22,417 --> 00:47:24,292
But what of the left wrist?

736
00:47:24,458 --> 00:47:26,167
You ignore an injury...

737
00:47:26,333 --> 00:47:28,875
as well as the precise time of death.

738
00:47:38,875 --> 00:47:39,875
Missed that.

739
00:47:43,125 --> 00:47:44,167
You're staring at me.

740
00:47:46,667 --> 00:47:47,750
Stop!

741
00:47:49,000 --> 00:47:50,333
You think I'm a loony?

742
00:47:50,875 --> 00:47:51,625
I'm not!

743
00:47:52,583 --> 00:47:53,583
Dad.

744
00:47:56,583 --> 00:47:57,708
Are you all right?

745
00:47:59,708 --> 00:48:00,625
Yeah.

746
00:48:00,792 --> 00:48:02,500
Just up here if you need me.

747
00:48:09,750 --> 00:48:11,500
Really wish you hadn't asked me.

748
00:48:13,000 --> 00:48:15,542
Battle scars are not always of the body.

749
00:48:17,250 --> 00:48:18,250
You served?

750
00:48:21,625 --> 00:48:24,125
15th of April, '45.

751
00:48:25,208 --> 00:48:27,208
It was all supposed to be over.

752
00:48:28,458 --> 00:48:30,042
We crossed the Rhine...

753
00:48:30,542 --> 00:48:32,583
east in the push for Berlin.

754
00:48:34,708 --> 00:48:37,042
Found the gates at the camp at Bergen-Belsen.

755
00:48:37,208 --> 00:48:38,208
Oh, God.

756
00:48:38,750 --> 00:48:39,917
"Liberating."

757
00:48:40,917 --> 00:48:44,417
Nursing skeletons back to life.

758
00:48:46,042 --> 00:48:49,333
We killed two the first day with milk.
We didn't know.

759
00:48:51,042 --> 00:48:52,333
Then typhus.

760
00:48:53,875 --> 00:48:55,458
All we had was aspirin and opium.

761
00:48:58,792 --> 00:49:00,500
We burned down the huts.

762
00:49:04,917 --> 00:49:06,542
I wrote Leo a letter.

763
00:49:09,542 --> 00:49:11,875
And then shot myself through the chest.

764
00:49:16,750 --> 00:49:19,375
I was told to stop practicing
when I got home.

765
00:49:19,542 --> 00:49:23,625
Except for one patient last year.

766
00:49:24,042 --> 00:49:25,125
Alicia Drake.

767
00:49:26,500 --> 00:49:28,125
A favor to Rowena.

768
00:49:30,792 --> 00:49:32,292
Nobody else would see her.

769
00:49:32,875 --> 00:49:33,875
Not here.

770
00:49:35,583 --> 00:49:38,083
I'd been her family doctor so long,
I should have said no.

771
00:49:38,250 --> 00:49:40,667
But you were at a disadvantage there.

772
00:49:41,667 --> 00:49:43,958
Because you are in love with Rowena Drake.

773
00:49:44,542 --> 00:49:46,333
Lucky to be in her life at all.

774
00:49:49,792 --> 00:49:51,125
I know this has been...

775
00:49:56,083 --> 00:50:00,500
I know this has been difficult,
but in your opinion...

776
00:50:01,167 --> 00:50:02,917
could Alicia Drake have been murdered?

777
00:50:03,958 --> 00:50:05,875
Alicia told me what she saw.

778
00:50:07,083 --> 00:50:09,792
She said the children were taunting her.

779
00:50:09,958 --> 00:50:10,958
I didn't listen.

780
00:50:11,125 --> 00:50:14,208
I wrote it off as a broken heart
when she was going mad.

781
00:50:15,792 --> 00:50:17,375
She needed help.

782
00:50:19,167 --> 00:50:20,833
I gave her sedatives...

783
00:50:22,292 --> 00:50:24,750
like milk to the starving.

784
00:50:25,750 --> 00:50:27,958
There is no such thing as psychic phenomena.

785
00:50:28,125 --> 00:50:30,833
There is psychic pain.

786
00:50:32,542 --> 00:50:34,500
A loony like me should have known.

787
00:50:39,208 --> 00:50:40,333
Are we through?

788
00:50:48,875 --> 00:50:50,458
<i>Merci,</i> Doctor Ferrier.

789
00:52:05,167 --> 00:52:06,958
I suppose I'm nowhere on your list.

790
00:52:08,542 --> 00:52:10,042
Of who to interview.

791
00:52:11,417 --> 00:52:12,958
I'll wait, sir.

792
00:52:14,125 --> 00:52:16,833
{\an8}The terrifying Edgar Allan Poe.

793
00:52:17,292 --> 00:52:19,750
For a boy your age, it is not better...

794
00:52:19,917 --> 00:52:22,208
perhaps, Charles Dickens?

795
00:52:22,375 --> 00:52:24,667
He's a bit silly. Don't you think?

796
00:52:27,500 --> 00:52:29,250
My father's jumpy like you.

797
00:52:29,917 --> 00:52:33,125
They call it war neurosis. Battle fatigue.

798
00:52:33,833 --> 00:52:35,250
I think that's unfair.

799
00:52:35,958 --> 00:52:37,167
He's not tired.

800
00:52:37,792 --> 00:52:38,792
He's broken.

801
00:52:40,458 --> 00:52:42,292
He was with me at midnight,
if you were wondering.

802
00:52:43,917 --> 00:52:46,458
I was wondering, I admit.

803
00:52:46,875 --> 00:52:48,083
With you at midnight, yes?

804
00:52:48,250 --> 00:52:50,250
In the kitchen, waiting for Ms. Rowena.

805
00:52:50,875 --> 00:52:52,250
He wanted to say good night.

806
00:52:52,417 --> 00:52:53,500
Of course.

807
00:52:53,958 --> 00:52:58,083
Her assistants came in just after,
so they're still on your list.

808
00:52:58,708 --> 00:53:00,333
Everyone is on my list.

809
00:53:01,500 --> 00:53:02,792
You left on the taps.

810
00:53:10,458 --> 00:53:13,667
I am afraid, I do not know myself tonight.

811
00:53:14,167 --> 00:53:15,417
You're feeling things.

812
00:53:17,083 --> 00:53:18,125
Voices.

813
00:53:19,500 --> 00:53:21,167
It's All Hallows' Eve.

814
00:53:22,250 --> 00:53:25,167
The dead are as close as they can be.

815
00:53:26,875 --> 00:53:28,500
You were dead, too, sir.

816
00:53:29,708 --> 00:53:31,667
Even if only for a moment.

817
00:53:33,083 --> 00:53:34,958
They see you as one of their own.

818
00:53:35,750 --> 00:53:39,042
One with something to say
would be wise to come to you.

819
00:53:40,208 --> 00:53:42,167
You talk like Ms. Reynolds.

820
00:53:42,333 --> 00:53:44,208
She only pretended to know.

821
00:53:45,333 --> 00:53:46,917
No wonder they got cross with her.

822
00:53:47,333 --> 00:53:49,333
You have much sympathy with the dead.

823
00:53:49,500 --> 00:53:51,292
Some of them are my friends.

824
00:53:53,750 --> 00:53:54,667
Excuse me.

825
00:53:57,125 --> 00:53:58,625
<i>Merci, Monsieur</i> Leopold.

826
00:53:58,792 --> 00:53:59,833
You're welcome.

827
00:54:02,333 --> 00:54:03,333
Hercules.

828
00:54:06,958 --> 00:54:07,958
Jumpy.

829
00:54:08,125 --> 00:54:10,583
Nicholas and Desdemona are ready.

830
00:54:12,958 --> 00:54:14,208
We can wait for the police.

831
00:54:14,625 --> 00:54:15,958
I am Hercule Poirot, no?

832
00:54:16,125 --> 00:54:18,000
-No. Yes.
-Yes.

833
00:54:18,167 --> 00:54:19,458
If the police can succeed where I cannot...

834
00:54:19,625 --> 00:54:21,667
I will be the next one off the balcony
into the canal.

835
00:54:21,833 --> 00:54:23,292
Back to his old self.

836
00:54:23,458 --> 00:54:24,458
What do you think so far?

837
00:54:24,917 --> 00:54:25,958
My money's on the housekeeper.

838
00:54:26,125 --> 00:54:28,208
Good taste in books,
but brimstone fire burns hot.

839
00:54:28,375 --> 00:54:30,417
And Rowena Drake needed the victim alive.

840
00:54:30,667 --> 00:54:31,875
Although that little boy...

841
00:54:32,792 --> 00:54:34,583
all the charm of chewing tinfoil.

842
00:54:34,750 --> 00:54:35,750
Perhaps, perhaps.

843
00:54:35,917 --> 00:54:39,125
Every theory aspires to fact
before the information is gathered.

844
00:54:39,292 --> 00:54:40,292
Order and method.

845
00:54:40,458 --> 00:54:41,500
-And lists.
-And lists.

846
00:54:41,667 --> 00:54:43,875
We continue to those who knew her best,
her assistants.

847
00:54:44,042 --> 00:54:45,625
Do you really think the help had motive?

848
00:54:45,792 --> 00:54:46,917
The help always have motive...

849
00:54:47,083 --> 00:54:48,667
first having to endure
to be called "the help."

850
00:54:53,792 --> 00:54:54,875
Him again.

851
00:54:55,042 --> 00:54:56,792
Those two criminals are not to be trusted.

852
00:54:56,958 --> 00:54:59,458
Criminals? Those children?
You might have mentioned that.

853
00:54:59,625 --> 00:55:00,750
I'm telling you now.

854
00:55:08,917 --> 00:55:10,458
Couldn't I do this with my sister?

855
00:55:11,292 --> 00:55:13,042
She waits for you comfortably.

856
00:55:13,417 --> 00:55:14,417
Where is my brother?

857
00:55:14,583 --> 00:55:16,167
He waits for you comfortably.

858
00:55:16,333 --> 00:55:18,875
Desdemona and Nicholas Holland.

859
00:55:19,042 --> 00:55:20,375
{\an8}Our passports are forgeries.

860
00:55:20,542 --> 00:55:21,667
Yes. And not very good ones.

861
00:55:21,833 --> 00:55:24,250
Horvát Nipkin and Dorenia before.

862
00:55:24,833 --> 00:55:25,833
Born in Hungary.

863
00:55:26,250 --> 00:55:28,292
Village burned out of existence.

864
00:55:28,458 --> 00:55:30,125
Of all our family...

865
00:55:30,958 --> 00:55:32,750
somehow we were still alive.

866
00:55:33,250 --> 00:55:34,458
We took care of each other.

867
00:55:34,625 --> 00:55:37,708
At midnight, we snuck a drink in the kitchen.

868
00:55:38,333 --> 00:55:39,542
The creepy kid was there.

869
00:55:39,708 --> 00:55:41,583
He has you coming in just after the hour.

870
00:55:41,750 --> 00:55:42,833
He is mistaken.

871
00:55:43,000 --> 00:55:44,917
And how long were you in Ms. Reynolds employ?

872
00:55:45,083 --> 00:55:46,583
-Just over a year.
-You sure?

873
00:55:46,750 --> 00:55:47,792
The best year we ever had.

874
00:55:47,958 --> 00:55:50,500
We haven't been hungry
since we started fronting for her.

875
00:55:50,667 --> 00:55:52,125
I don't know what we'll do without her.

876
00:55:52,292 --> 00:55:54,458
-We managed before her.
-Oh, yes, you stole.

877
00:55:54,625 --> 00:55:56,458
We were thieves, not murderers.

878
00:55:56,625 --> 00:55:58,042
We did what we had to survive the war.

879
00:55:58,208 --> 00:55:59,208
She just knew things.

880
00:55:59,375 --> 00:56:01,750
And if she says Alicia Drake was murdered...

881
00:56:01,917 --> 00:56:02,958
Pure phony.

882
00:56:03,125 --> 00:56:04,083
She was magic.

883
00:56:04,958 --> 00:56:07,583
So, all of these séance
in which you participated...

884
00:56:07,750 --> 00:56:08,792
It was fake. Fake.

885
00:56:08,958 --> 00:56:10,792
-Fake? They were fake, the spirit meetings?
-It was all fake.

886
00:56:10,958 --> 00:56:12,667
-All of the séances?
-It was all a show.

887
00:56:12,875 --> 00:56:14,958
All a show, a fake. Strange.

888
00:56:15,125 --> 00:56:16,583
And is this magic too?

889
00:56:16,750 --> 00:56:18,625
The control for your talking typewriter?

890
00:56:19,375 --> 00:56:20,917
I mean, we'd set some tricks.

891
00:56:21,083 --> 00:56:23,458
Only to drive home the reality
of her visions.

892
00:56:23,958 --> 00:56:25,750
She ordered me around like a duchess...

893
00:56:25,917 --> 00:56:28,500
and flirted with Nicholas
to keep him in line.

894
00:56:29,250 --> 00:56:30,625
We have put up with worse.

895
00:56:30,792 --> 00:56:33,542
"We'll get there without her."

896
00:56:33,833 --> 00:56:34,958
Where were you running off to?

897
00:56:35,708 --> 00:56:37,750
-We're going to Missouri.
-Missouri.

898
00:56:37,917 --> 00:56:38,833
Missouri?

899
00:56:39,250 --> 00:56:42,000
We were hiding in the Murrhardt Forest.

900
00:56:42,333 --> 00:56:44,625
Living on weeds and mice.

901
00:56:45,417 --> 00:56:47,083
The American trucks,
they came through Heilbronn...

902
00:56:47,250 --> 00:56:49,000
and I thought we're dead when they caught us.

903
00:56:49,167 --> 00:56:51,083
They taught us the Lindy Hop.

904
00:56:51,542 --> 00:56:53,708
We'd never seen anything like them before.

905
00:56:54,125 --> 00:56:57,458
This mix of men,
their colors and their voices.

906
00:56:58,333 --> 00:57:00,250
One of them tacked up this sheet.

907
00:57:00,417 --> 00:57:03,125
They had a film projector,
but only half a movie.

908
00:57:03,292 --> 00:57:07,542
We used to watch
half of <i>Meet Me in St. Louis...</i>

909
00:57:08,750 --> 00:57:11,708
every night on an army sheet for a month.

910
00:57:11,875 --> 00:57:14,417
We watched it over and over.

911
00:57:15,083 --> 00:57:16,708
I still don't how it ends.

912
00:57:18,417 --> 00:57:19,708
It ends happily.

913
00:57:21,000 --> 00:57:23,000
"St. Louis, Missouri."

914
00:57:24,375 --> 00:57:26,958
Just saying those words
could get my sister to fall asleep.

915
00:57:27,583 --> 00:57:28,792
It was the color.

916
00:57:30,250 --> 00:57:31,833
It was the beautiful people.

917
00:57:32,000 --> 00:57:34,042
You know, it was, no one was sick.

918
00:57:34,208 --> 00:57:37,875
No one was starving or dying.

919
00:57:38,750 --> 00:57:41,500
5135 Kensington Avenue.

920
00:57:42,625 --> 00:57:44,333
That's where we decided to live.

921
00:57:45,375 --> 00:57:47,417
It's her dream so it's mine too.

922
00:57:47,583 --> 00:57:51,667
We only had to endure the duchess
until we had enough to buy our way in.

923
00:57:52,083 --> 00:57:53,333
And start over.

924
00:57:54,292 --> 00:57:55,917
Stupid to have a dream.

925
00:57:56,625 --> 00:58:00,375
But impatient with your dream, you
grew brazen and skimmed from her proceeds.

926
00:58:01,083 --> 00:58:02,958
"Clang, clang, clang, went the trolley."

927
00:58:03,125 --> 00:58:04,417
What? No, we didn't.

928
00:58:04,583 --> 00:58:06,083
Your brother already admits that you did.

929
00:58:06,250 --> 00:58:07,042
Idiot.

930
00:58:07,208 --> 00:58:08,917
Your sister already admits that you did.

931
00:58:09,083 --> 00:58:10,833
Not from Ms. Reynolds. We wouldn't.

932
00:58:11,000 --> 00:58:13,750
Perhaps she discovered your theft
and made threats.

933
00:58:13,917 --> 00:58:15,708
Perhaps you had had enough experience...

934
00:58:15,875 --> 00:58:18,500
of the police's cruel treatment
of stateless Romani urchins...

935
00:58:18,667 --> 00:58:21,542
and, wishing to avoid deportation,
or worse, killed her.

936
00:58:21,708 --> 00:58:22,958
You, the trusted help.

937
00:58:27,375 --> 00:58:28,333
Nicholas!

938
00:58:28,500 --> 00:58:29,708
Nicholas, where are you?

939
00:58:33,542 --> 00:58:35,417
If I'm trapped here, so are you.

940
00:58:43,208 --> 00:58:44,667
Doesn't mean that I killed her.

941
00:58:44,833 --> 00:58:46,375
Damn well ran like she did.

942
00:58:46,542 --> 00:58:48,750
Clear motive,
both unaccounted for at her time of death.

943
00:58:48,917 --> 00:58:50,083
I'm changing my guess.

944
00:58:50,250 --> 00:58:53,208
It is certainly possible. Yes. Yes.

945
00:58:54,167 --> 00:58:56,917
You're doing that thing where you pretend
to know more than everyone else in the world.

946
00:58:57,083 --> 00:59:00,208
I as yet know nothing. The truth
does not come without a tax of effort.

947
00:59:01,375 --> 00:59:04,583
You woke the bear from his sleep.
You cannot cry when he tangos.

948
00:59:04,750 --> 00:59:06,167
That's not an expression in any language.

949
00:59:06,333 --> 00:59:07,792
We continue.

950
00:59:18,458 --> 00:59:19,750
Can you hear this?

951
00:59:20,833 --> 00:59:22,250
All around us.

952
00:59:22,875 --> 00:59:24,083
I heard nothing.

953
00:59:25,833 --> 00:59:28,167
Your investigator has poached his egg.

954
00:59:29,917 --> 00:59:33,500
Poirot. A bang to the head
might be your limit for tonight.

955
00:59:34,375 --> 00:59:36,292
Someone else is in this house.

956
00:59:38,958 --> 00:59:40,125
Did you hear it?

957
00:59:41,500 --> 00:59:42,500
Yes.

958
00:59:43,500 --> 00:59:44,750
Me and you, then.

959
00:59:46,750 --> 00:59:48,417
Listening.

960
00:59:51,292 --> 00:59:52,292
Wait.

961
01:00:09,875 --> 01:00:10,875
Still dead.

962
01:00:56,583 --> 01:00:59,417
It is all right. You can come out now.

963
01:01:07,167 --> 01:01:09,875
You're not in any trouble.

964
01:01:10,667 --> 01:01:12,292
There is nothing to fear.

965
01:01:13,125 --> 01:01:15,542
You came with the other children, yes?

966
01:01:17,250 --> 01:01:20,958
And you have been hiding here all this time.

967
01:01:26,792 --> 01:01:28,833
Did you hear the woman fall?

968
01:01:33,167 --> 01:01:34,542
Did you see?

969
01:01:36,958 --> 01:01:38,167
Did someone push her?

970
01:01:40,125 --> 01:01:41,375
Who are you talking to?

971
01:01:42,708 --> 01:01:43,708
A child.

972
01:01:46,958 --> 01:01:47,958
You must have heard.

973
01:01:50,500 --> 01:01:51,542
That I heard.

974
01:01:59,917 --> 01:02:00,833
Let us go!

975
01:02:01,000 --> 01:02:01,958
Untie us, you pig!

976
01:02:03,083 --> 01:02:04,125
You can't leave us here!

977
01:02:08,542 --> 01:02:10,875
-You heard that. You all...
-Must be the pipes.

978
01:02:11,042 --> 01:02:12,458
Pipes? It sounds like the Blitz.

979
01:02:12,625 --> 01:02:14,375
In all my years here, I've never heard this.

980
01:02:14,542 --> 01:02:16,292
I have. When they're angry.

981
01:02:16,458 --> 01:02:17,333
We've upset them.

982
01:02:17,500 --> 01:02:19,750
How do we un-upset them?

983
01:02:19,917 --> 01:02:20,917
Listen.

984
01:02:26,167 --> 01:02:27,833
It comes from the basement.

985
01:02:30,625 --> 01:02:32,667
There is no basement in this house.

986
01:02:58,542 --> 01:03:01,500
<i>"Dottore."
</i>Doctor. The Children's Vendetta.

987
01:03:02,083 --> 01:03:03,542
You wanna go down into that?

988
01:03:24,417 --> 01:03:26,167
<i>All over the world</i>

989
01:03:26,750 --> 01:03:28,708
-Dad?
<i>-The boys are home again</i>

990
01:03:44,500 --> 01:03:47,292
They really did lock those children
in here to die.

991
01:03:47,958 --> 01:03:50,333
Leave him. He's having a nerve storm.

992
01:03:50,500 --> 01:03:52,625
Damn it, Ferrier. Not now!

993
01:03:52,792 --> 01:03:53,792
Pull it together.

994
01:03:54,208 --> 01:03:55,333
Think of your son.

995
01:03:58,458 --> 01:04:00,208
-Stop it!
-Dad!

996
01:04:00,375 --> 01:04:01,500
Stop it! Stop it!

997
01:04:09,083 --> 01:04:11,042
Storm waves. Not ghosts.

998
01:04:11,583 --> 01:04:13,333
-Please, stop it!
-Stop!

999
01:04:14,667 --> 01:04:15,500
Dad!

1000
01:04:22,917 --> 01:04:23,542
Stop it.

1001
01:04:28,458 --> 01:04:29,292
Dad, stop it!

1002
01:04:29,458 --> 01:04:30,708
Are you all right? You all right?

1003
01:04:33,042 --> 01:04:34,042
-Dad, please, stop!
-Stop it!

1004
01:04:34,250 --> 01:04:35,083
Please, stop!

1005
01:04:43,000 --> 01:04:44,750
Dad. Dad.

1006
01:04:46,292 --> 01:04:47,958
Dad. It's me.

1007
01:04:49,042 --> 01:04:50,042
It's me.

1008
01:04:51,708 --> 01:04:53,042
I'm right here.

1009
01:04:57,708 --> 01:04:59,000
You're here with me.

1010
01:05:00,792 --> 01:05:01,792
You see me?

1011
01:05:02,292 --> 01:05:03,292
You see me?

1012
01:05:18,375 --> 01:05:19,667
It's just a thing.

1013
01:05:19,833 --> 01:05:20,917
I know.

1014
01:05:28,583 --> 01:05:29,708
Shh, Dad.

1015
01:05:33,250 --> 01:05:34,500
It's okay. Dad.

1016
01:05:35,542 --> 01:05:36,792
Just needs his rest.

1017
01:05:38,083 --> 01:05:39,167
Don't you, Dad?

1018
01:05:39,333 --> 01:05:41,500
I should be taking care of you.

1019
01:05:41,667 --> 01:05:42,667
You do.

1020
01:05:51,208 --> 01:05:52,042
Rest, <i>monsieur.</i>

1021
01:05:53,208 --> 01:05:54,833
I should have listened.

1022
01:05:55,000 --> 01:05:56,000
I saw.

1023
01:05:56,708 --> 01:05:58,625
Demons, evil...

1024
01:05:58,792 --> 01:06:00,708
they're everywhere in this house.

1025
01:06:01,208 --> 01:06:04,500
You and me, we're the same.

1026
01:06:06,750 --> 01:06:08,125
Wherever we go...

1027
01:06:09,667 --> 01:06:11,000
death follows.

1028
01:06:11,167 --> 01:06:13,917
There must be a rational answer
for all of this.

1029
01:06:14,333 --> 01:06:16,458
In the basement, there are bees.

1030
01:06:17,208 --> 01:06:19,583
Upstairs, there is an ordinary killer.

1031
01:06:19,750 --> 01:06:20,708
No.

1032
01:06:22,125 --> 01:06:23,208
Listen.

1033
01:06:25,500 --> 01:06:26,500
Believe.

1034
01:06:38,958 --> 01:06:41,000
He can rest now in my music room.

1035
01:06:41,167 --> 01:06:42,833
It's almost soundproof.

1036
01:06:46,292 --> 01:06:48,167
We should lock it. For his safety.

1037
01:06:49,458 --> 01:06:52,292
But please, you keep the key. For ours.

1038
01:06:54,458 --> 01:06:55,458
<i>Merci.</i>

1039
01:07:01,083 --> 01:07:02,167
Come on, Leopold.

1040
01:07:02,917 --> 01:07:04,208
It's time for more cake, don't you think?

1041
01:07:04,375 --> 01:07:05,375
I've had too much.

1042
01:07:05,542 --> 01:07:06,708
Well, I haven't.

1043
01:07:14,333 --> 01:07:16,000
Of course, she'd say that.

1044
01:07:16,833 --> 01:07:19,750
From her perspective, it's true,
I did kill Alicia.

1045
01:07:20,625 --> 01:07:22,958
Rowena believes what she wants.

1046
01:07:23,833 --> 01:07:26,917
A medium saw Alicia murdered,
color me the gunman.

1047
01:07:27,083 --> 01:07:29,042
You do not believe Ms. Reynolds...

1048
01:07:29,458 --> 01:07:33,792
her typewriter with the message
from the departed of your initial...

1049
01:07:34,542 --> 01:07:35,542
"M" for Maxime.

1050
01:07:36,125 --> 01:07:37,333
A haunted house?

1051
01:07:38,125 --> 01:07:41,292
Humans are so desperate to shape chaos
into tidy stories...

1052
01:07:41,458 --> 01:07:43,083
double that in distress.

1053
01:07:44,042 --> 01:07:47,250
It isn't a wash of a trillion stars,
it's ol' Cassiopeia.

1054
01:07:47,417 --> 01:07:50,500
That blur of light in the family photo?
That must be Grandad's ghost.

1055
01:07:51,542 --> 01:07:53,792
Alicia was mentally ill.

1056
01:07:54,083 --> 01:07:55,667
It killed her.

1057
01:07:55,833 --> 01:07:56,875
It didn't have to.

1058
01:07:57,042 --> 01:08:00,625
A proper doctor would have treated her
properly. Not that twitch salad.

1059
01:08:01,000 --> 01:08:02,375
Shit!

1060
01:08:08,417 --> 01:08:11,917
Honey. Good on a cut. Ancient antiseptic.

1061
01:08:17,957 --> 01:08:19,917
That's not wildflower.

1062
01:08:21,125 --> 01:08:22,125
I can't place it.

1063
01:08:30,042 --> 01:08:31,707
Alicia Drake.

1064
01:08:32,250 --> 01:08:35,542
Such sunshine happiness.

1065
01:08:37,792 --> 01:08:38,792
Torn in two.

1066
01:08:39,542 --> 01:08:43,417
Alicia tore up the photo in her room
the night I ended it.

1067
01:08:45,250 --> 01:08:46,750
It's the last time we spoke.

1068
01:08:47,667 --> 01:08:50,207
So, you did break off your engagement.

1069
01:08:51,832 --> 01:08:54,417
You heard. She wasn't rich enough for me.

1070
01:08:54,582 --> 01:08:58,292
You carry her photograph in your pocket.
You came tonight when summoned.

1071
01:08:58,457 --> 01:09:01,582
I believe that you loved Alicia Drake
more than the money.

1072
01:09:02,167 --> 01:09:03,417
And yet, you walked away.

1073
01:09:03,582 --> 01:09:06,625
Some women, you marry them,
you marry their mother, too.

1074
01:09:06,792 --> 01:09:08,500
So, the mother did not approve of you.

1075
01:09:08,667 --> 01:09:10,375
She wouldn't approve of the Pope.

1076
01:09:11,832 --> 01:09:14,417
Rowena didn't know how to exist alone.

1077
01:09:14,957 --> 01:09:16,917
Tore up the garden in spite,
took off abroad.

1078
01:09:17,082 --> 01:09:20,167
Alicia was all twisted with guilt,
wanted to chase her around the world.

1079
01:09:20,332 --> 01:09:25,292
And I finally realized I would never be
the most important thing in her life.

1080
01:09:25,457 --> 01:09:27,875
So, you broke it off and broke her heart.

1081
01:09:28,042 --> 01:09:30,457
All because a woman made you feel small.

1082
01:09:30,917 --> 01:09:32,875
I returned to Venice...

1083
01:09:33,042 --> 01:09:35,457
to beg her to take me back.

1084
01:09:38,000 --> 01:09:39,667
When I heard she was sick...

1085
01:09:40,917 --> 01:09:42,917
Rowena wouldn't let me see her.

1086
01:09:43,542 --> 01:09:45,125
Or show her my letters.

1087
01:09:47,750 --> 01:09:50,125
The next time I saw Alicia was in a coffin.

1088
01:09:57,000 --> 01:09:58,583
Maybe it was my fault.

1089
01:10:03,125 --> 01:10:06,125
If you will permit,
your invitation, please?

1090
01:10:12,292 --> 01:10:13,375
Ms. Oliver.

1091
01:10:17,208 --> 01:10:20,458
-A simple note.
-No distinguishing language.

1092
01:10:20,625 --> 01:10:24,792
The stationery is plain.
It is cleanly typewritten.

1093
01:10:25,042 --> 01:10:27,500
Professionally anonymous.

1094
01:10:42,542 --> 01:10:44,125
Well, that's it. You're done. Let's go.

1095
01:10:58,375 --> 01:11:00,583
His interview. We did not finish.

1096
01:11:01,333 --> 01:11:03,583
You were gonna expose some lie he told...

1097
01:11:03,750 --> 01:11:05,708
probably accuse him of being secretly Vichy.

1098
01:11:05,875 --> 01:11:08,667
Then, he would have threatened to deck you.
Effort spared.

1099
01:11:08,833 --> 01:11:09,750
Is he all right?

1100
01:11:09,917 --> 01:11:11,750
Guard dog, be useful, get him a chair.

1101
01:11:11,917 --> 01:11:13,458
A chair, yes.

1102
01:11:14,792 --> 01:11:17,083
It is good to have a friend in this.

1103
01:11:17,958 --> 01:11:20,042
How long have we known each other?

1104
01:11:20,833 --> 01:11:23,417
The Canning Road Municipal Baths Murder.

1105
01:11:24,000 --> 01:11:26,875
I bullied my way into observing you
as research for a book.

1106
01:11:27,042 --> 01:11:28,333
Wrote Poirot thinly veiled.

1107
01:11:28,500 --> 01:11:30,333
They saw through it, and you got famous.

1108
01:11:30,500 --> 01:11:31,500
Infamous.

1109
01:11:33,000 --> 01:11:34,958
Excuse me. Thank you.

1110
01:11:38,292 --> 01:11:40,792
Thank you. Not for me. For you.

1111
01:11:42,833 --> 01:11:44,500
You want to interview me?

1112
01:11:44,667 --> 01:11:45,500
Leave him be.

1113
01:11:45,667 --> 01:11:48,042
You turned on a cold engine,
took a few knocks to the head.

1114
01:11:48,208 --> 01:11:50,667
Sit this one out. Let morning come.

1115
01:11:54,125 --> 01:11:55,458
I almost died.

1116
01:11:56,500 --> 01:11:57,500
Here.

1117
01:11:59,708 --> 01:12:01,250
This palazzo...

1118
01:12:02,208 --> 01:12:03,292
it plays tricks.

1119
01:12:04,917 --> 01:12:08,792
It puts things in front of me
again and again.

1120
01:12:10,000 --> 01:12:11,000
Apples.

1121
01:12:11,167 --> 01:12:12,125
A trick of the mind.

1122
01:12:12,292 --> 01:12:16,083
And then my mind wishes to tell me something.

1123
01:12:16,667 --> 01:12:19,083
How did you become a policeman?

1124
01:12:19,250 --> 01:12:21,500
I do wish you would let go of this.

1125
01:12:21,792 --> 01:12:23,667
It's all right. I'll answer.

1126
01:12:24,625 --> 01:12:25,917
My father was a cop.

1127
01:12:26,417 --> 01:12:28,042
Family business, basically.

1128
01:12:28,875 --> 01:12:29,875
Never knew anything else.

1129
01:12:30,042 --> 01:12:32,958
Yet, you retired early. Only last year.

1130
01:12:33,125 --> 01:12:34,083
Yeah.

1131
01:12:35,000 --> 01:12:36,875
The family business was no longer for me.

1132
01:12:37,042 --> 01:12:38,542
Perhaps never was.

1133
01:12:39,208 --> 01:12:41,375
I had the strength, but not the skin.

1134
01:12:42,542 --> 01:12:46,542
I drank when I couldn't sleep
and I never slept.

1135
01:12:48,333 --> 01:12:49,625
You were a policeman once.

1136
01:12:50,417 --> 01:12:51,500
You can understand.

1137
01:12:52,292 --> 01:12:53,708
Eventually, you get a case...

1138
01:12:54,333 --> 01:12:57,292
and you know it is the last one
you can stomach and still know your soul.

1139
01:12:58,500 --> 01:13:00,333
What case was it for you?

1140
01:13:02,125 --> 01:13:06,625
Why did you lie about never having been here
before when clearly you had?

1141
01:13:07,583 --> 01:13:11,125
You knew precisely where to find
the hidden telephone.

1142
01:13:13,500 --> 01:13:15,792
The case was such a spectacle.

1143
01:13:15,958 --> 01:13:18,292
The family deserved their privacy.

1144
01:13:18,458 --> 01:13:22,542
But you were the policeman on duty...

1145
01:13:22,708 --> 01:13:25,208
when Alicia Drake was found dead.

1146
01:13:26,125 --> 01:13:26,875
Yes.

1147
01:13:28,042 --> 01:13:30,792
<i>I pulled her from the water.</i>

1148
01:13:33,167 --> 01:13:34,500
Retired next day.

1149
01:13:34,667 --> 01:13:38,625
Soon to become my excellent bodyguard,
the dragon at my gate...

1150
01:13:39,167 --> 01:13:42,125
who not once permitted a soul to pass.

1151
01:13:42,292 --> 01:13:45,500
Yet only this morning, interrupted me...

1152
01:13:45,667 --> 01:13:48,500
to ask if I indeed knew the woman
with the apples.

1153
01:13:49,958 --> 01:13:51,875
So many months, my peace undisturbed...

1154
01:13:52,042 --> 01:13:55,625
you resolutely guarding me
from curiosity or company...

1155
01:13:55,792 --> 01:13:58,167
grown men cast into the canal.

1156
01:13:59,000 --> 01:14:00,458
Ariadne Oliver...

1157
01:14:01,167 --> 01:14:02,708
waltzes through.

1158
01:14:02,875 --> 01:14:03,875
Why?

1159
01:14:07,208 --> 01:14:08,750
Because you were in league.

1160
01:14:11,042 --> 01:14:13,042
The authoress and the bodyguard...

1161
01:14:13,208 --> 01:14:15,708
working with the medium, in the cahoot.

1162
01:14:17,042 --> 01:14:18,708
<i>Feigning disdain...</i>

1163
01:14:18,875 --> 01:14:22,292
<i>conspiring to bring me to this séance
to make me a fool.</i>

1164
01:14:23,250 --> 01:14:24,667
I'm very worried about you.

1165
01:14:24,833 --> 01:14:28,417
Details of Alicia Drake's life and death...

1166
01:14:28,583 --> 01:14:31,833
provided by the policeman
who was present at her death.

1167
01:14:32,000 --> 01:14:35,792
Details of me provided not by divination...

1168
01:14:35,958 --> 01:14:37,542
but by letter from you.

1169
01:14:37,708 --> 01:14:39,833
And at the séance,
with all eyes on the medium...

1170
01:14:40,000 --> 01:14:42,708
<i>your own hands were free.
The secret accomplice...</i>

1171
01:14:43,333 --> 01:14:46,375
<i>to make me believe the impossible.</i>

1172
01:14:48,958 --> 01:14:50,542
<i>Mediums and magic.</i>

1173
01:14:50,708 --> 01:14:52,500
<i>Ghosts and gods.</i>

1174
01:14:52,667 --> 01:14:53,833
<i>Fame for the medium...</i>

1175
01:14:54,042 --> 01:14:55,125
a percentage to you...

1176
01:14:55,292 --> 01:14:57,750
your literary standing restored.

1177
01:14:57,917 --> 01:14:59,917
"The woman who stumped Hercule Poirot."

1178
01:15:00,083 --> 01:15:04,375
Not Joyce Reynolds but Ariadne Oliver.

1179
01:15:10,708 --> 01:15:11,875
Won't you forgive me?

1180
01:15:12,042 --> 01:15:14,000
Apparently, only God can forgive.

1181
01:15:14,875 --> 01:15:16,042
Bit of a pickle then.

1182
01:15:16,208 --> 01:15:18,750
So, let us discover how you did it.

1183
01:15:18,917 --> 01:15:20,750
-Baba?
-A good touch.

1184
01:15:20,917 --> 01:15:22,875
The personal invitation to the fiancé?

1185
01:15:23,042 --> 01:15:27,750
Guaranteed drama with that one.
Three flops, I needed a win.

1186
01:15:27,917 --> 01:15:29,250
We were friends.

1187
01:15:29,417 --> 01:15:31,833
You don't have friends, you have admirers.

1188
01:15:32,000 --> 01:15:33,917
And you only have them because of me.

1189
01:15:34,083 --> 01:15:35,667
I wrote you up as a genius...

1190
01:15:35,833 --> 01:15:37,833
why shouldn't I use you to sell books?

1191
01:15:38,500 --> 01:15:41,708
Genius. You're a fool. An ego.

1192
01:15:41,875 --> 01:15:44,375
A black cloud that lures death.

1193
01:15:45,167 --> 01:15:46,917
And you know it, too.
That's why you quit.

1194
01:15:47,083 --> 01:15:49,208
Is this why you killed Joyce Reynolds?

1195
01:15:49,375 --> 01:15:51,333
No. I did not.

1196
01:15:51,500 --> 01:15:53,542
Your book an instant legend.

1197
01:15:53,708 --> 01:15:55,083
Come on, you're tap dancing now.

1198
01:15:55,250 --> 01:15:56,208
Working together...

1199
01:15:56,375 --> 01:15:57,375
We didn't.

1200
01:15:57,542 --> 01:15:59,042
...to conceal murder!

1201
01:16:00,000 --> 01:16:00,833
The key, come quick!

1202
01:16:01,000 --> 01:16:02,375
There's someone else in there!

1203
01:16:02,542 --> 01:16:03,750
Hurry up! Hurry up with it!

1204
01:16:04,333 --> 01:16:05,167
Poirot!

1205
01:16:05,333 --> 01:16:07,000
What? What happened? What's wrong with him?

1206
01:16:07,167 --> 01:16:08,333
I don't know.

1207
01:16:56,250 --> 01:16:58,208
Why did he have to be alone?

1208
01:17:00,833 --> 01:17:02,042
This is the only way in.

1209
01:17:03,125 --> 01:17:04,542
You had the only key.

1210
01:17:04,708 --> 01:17:06,958
Not possible.

1211
01:17:09,875 --> 01:17:11,042
No.

1212
01:17:11,208 --> 01:17:13,333
No, I was right in front of you!

1213
01:17:14,917 --> 01:17:16,875
He was shouting at someone.

1214
01:17:19,417 --> 01:17:21,500
I hated him but I didn't want him dead.

1215
01:17:21,667 --> 01:17:24,000
He's got a child for Christ's sakes.

1216
01:17:24,167 --> 01:17:26,333
Anyways, I was outside...

1217
01:17:26,500 --> 01:17:27,500
trying to get in with them.

1218
01:17:28,583 --> 01:17:29,708
It's true.

1219
01:17:29,875 --> 01:17:31,625
The doctor was alone in here.

1220
01:17:32,167 --> 01:17:33,208
Not alone.

1221
01:17:33,958 --> 01:17:35,167
Not in this house.

1222
01:17:35,958 --> 01:17:37,125
A doctor.

1223
01:17:38,458 --> 01:17:41,583
A nurse and a doctor,
the Children's Vendetta.

1224
01:17:42,375 --> 01:17:43,792
There is no other way in.

1225
01:17:43,958 --> 01:17:45,375
I can't understand.

1226
01:17:45,542 --> 01:17:48,792
If this room wasn't safe, nowhere is safe.

1227
01:17:49,333 --> 01:17:51,042
None of us are safe.

1228
01:17:52,250 --> 01:17:55,167
Nothing human could have done this.

1229
01:17:55,333 --> 01:17:58,083
"It is only for us to prove
that these apparent 'impossibilities'...

1230
01:17:58,250 --> 01:18:00,125
"are, in reality, not such."

1231
01:18:00,292 --> 01:18:01,625
Come on, leave him.

1232
01:18:01,792 --> 01:18:04,042
Let the detective detect. He already knows.

1233
01:18:04,208 --> 01:18:05,958
He's gonna come to it soon enough.

1234
01:18:06,125 --> 01:18:07,125
Go on.

1235
01:18:08,083 --> 01:18:11,792
For once in your life, admit that you are up
against something bigger than you.

1236
01:18:13,458 --> 01:18:14,458
You asked.

1237
01:18:17,250 --> 01:18:20,750
You asked why I stayed
while they summoned spirits.

1238
01:18:21,583 --> 01:18:24,458
Alicia was wasting away as she went mad.

1239
01:18:26,667 --> 01:18:28,625
Ms. Rowena stayed at her side...

1240
01:18:29,083 --> 01:18:30,167
<i>day and night.</i>

1241
01:18:30,333 --> 01:18:33,083
<i>One day, I pleaded with her
to take some rest.</i>

1242
01:18:35,000 --> 01:18:37,042
<i>I promised to keep watch.</i>

1243
01:18:37,750 --> 01:18:39,375
<i>She slept past nightfall.</i>

1244
01:18:40,250 --> 01:18:41,792
<i>It got to midnight.</i>

1245
01:18:41,958 --> 01:18:43,625
<i>I heard voices...</i>

1246
01:18:44,917 --> 01:18:46,292
<i>and footsteps.</i>

1247
01:18:47,667 --> 01:18:50,125
<i>Alicia was sleeping so soundly.</i>

1248
01:18:50,583 --> 01:18:53,125
She must have woken after I left.

1249
01:18:54,875 --> 01:18:56,500
Gone to the balcony.

1250
01:18:56,667 --> 01:18:59,500
And you would beg her ghost's forgiveness.

1251
01:19:01,208 --> 01:19:02,667
I loved that girl.

1252
01:19:04,833 --> 01:19:06,000
She died...

1253
01:19:07,667 --> 01:19:10,792
because I was stupid and I was scared.

1254
01:19:50,958 --> 01:19:53,083
<i>Why don't you have the answer?</i>

1255
01:19:54,833 --> 01:19:56,833
You always have the answer.

1256
01:20:28,167 --> 01:20:30,042
<i>-I never should have come.
-Wait.</i>

1257
01:20:30,208 --> 01:20:32,542
You should all leave this place
and never look back.

1258
01:20:37,208 --> 01:20:39,667
I will not wait to be next.

1259
01:20:43,000 --> 01:20:44,000
Tonight...

1260
01:20:46,417 --> 01:20:47,792
we are all afraid.

1261
01:20:48,875 --> 01:20:52,167
There have been two impossible murders.

1262
01:20:52,542 --> 01:20:56,667
Each murder appears committable
only by phantom...

1263
01:20:56,833 --> 01:20:59,750
as if the living have been killed
by the dead.

1264
01:20:59,917 --> 01:21:01,917
"Appears"? You know something.

1265
01:21:02,083 --> 01:21:03,458
You know who killed my father?

1266
01:21:03,625 --> 01:21:06,375
I must consider Ms. Reynolds' assistants.

1267
01:21:06,833 --> 01:21:08,708
Survivors, desperate and threatened.

1268
01:21:08,875 --> 01:21:11,917
The <i>ex-police-commissario,
</i>who has been in this house before...

1269
01:21:12,083 --> 01:21:13,833
each time death occurs.

1270
01:21:14,000 --> 01:21:17,750
The authoress, determined, capable,
murderously clever.

1271
01:21:17,917 --> 01:21:20,958
Our avenging angel, Olga Seminoff...

1272
01:21:21,125 --> 01:21:23,708
so keen on justice as she prescribes it.

1273
01:21:23,875 --> 01:21:26,875
The former love
full of rage for the doctor...

1274
01:21:27,042 --> 01:21:30,333
and only the fragment of a photograph...

1275
01:21:31,167 --> 01:21:35,375
to remember such happiness.

1276
01:21:38,000 --> 01:21:39,125
But...

1277
01:21:40,458 --> 01:21:44,917
There has been a third death,
which explains the other two.

1278
01:21:45,083 --> 01:21:47,958
The murder of Alicia Drake...

1279
01:21:48,667 --> 01:21:50,417
committed by...

1280
01:21:54,875 --> 01:21:56,042
her mother.

1281
01:21:57,500 --> 01:21:58,958
Her murderer.

1282
01:22:00,792 --> 01:22:04,833
A mother who killed her own child then
killed twice more to hide her terrible sin.

1283
01:22:05,000 --> 01:22:06,333
How dare you!

1284
01:22:06,500 --> 01:22:11,292
After all I have suffered,
to accuse me of harming my little girl!

1285
01:22:11,458 --> 01:22:12,500
Your little girl had grown.

1286
01:22:12,667 --> 01:22:15,083
You could not fathom losing her
to anyone else.

1287
01:22:15,250 --> 01:22:18,333
In a rage, you tore up your garden
of rainbow flowers.

1288
01:22:18,500 --> 01:22:20,042
Flowers? You're too far gone now.

1289
01:22:20,208 --> 01:22:23,500
But you replanted your garden.
Not with a rainbow, but with a single color.

1290
01:22:23,667 --> 01:22:26,750
<i>The single color that could give you back
what you would not live without.</i>

1291
01:22:28,917 --> 01:22:32,042
All night, I am hearing, seeing things
which are not there.

1292
01:22:32,833 --> 01:22:36,042
I begin to believe
in the impossible presence of ghosts.

1293
01:22:37,333 --> 01:22:40,708
When in fact I had been doped, drugged...

1294
01:22:42,542 --> 01:22:44,208
with an hallucinogenic poison.

1295
01:22:44,375 --> 01:22:45,583
I thought my cupboards were bare.

1296
01:22:46,000 --> 01:22:47,542
<i>Found your honey in the linen closet.</i>

1297
01:22:51,417 --> 01:22:55,458
<i>There is a poison in the flowering species
of</i> Rhododendron Ponticum.

1298
01:22:55,625 --> 01:22:57,625
<i>Its highest concentration in the nectar...</i>

1299
01:22:57,792 --> 01:23:02,542
that concentrates further
when processed by bees into honey.

1300
01:23:02,708 --> 01:23:05,542
All this effort
for a teaspoon of wildflower honey...

1301
01:23:05,708 --> 01:23:07,500
that we could buy for six lira.

1302
01:23:07,667 --> 01:23:09,583
That's not wildflower.

1303
01:23:11,000 --> 01:23:12,083
I can't place it.

1304
01:23:12,250 --> 01:23:15,292
They call it "Deli bal" in Türkiye,
where it grows wild.

1305
01:23:15,458 --> 01:23:18,167
Where Rowena Drake traveled alone, angry.

1306
01:23:18,667 --> 01:23:21,000
"Mad honey."
A mere teaspoon of this poison...

1307
01:23:21,167 --> 01:23:24,833
<i>induces weakness, fever, hallucination.</i>

1308
01:23:25,000 --> 01:23:29,792
<i>You replanted it with that same toxic flower
that would produce poison honey.</i>

1309
01:23:30,292 --> 01:23:32,750
I couldn't do that. I wouldn't.

1310
01:23:34,125 --> 01:23:36,083
Your daughter was not possessed.

1311
01:23:37,333 --> 01:23:38,417
She was poisoned...

1312
01:23:38,583 --> 01:23:40,792
<i>by a mother who could not let her go.</i>

1313
01:23:41,667 --> 01:23:45,208
<i>Who lovingly spoon-fed controlled doses...</i>

1314
01:23:45,375 --> 01:23:48,167
<i>of poison honey in her tea.</i>

1315
01:23:48,333 --> 01:23:49,708
<i>Keeping her just sick enough...</i>

1316
01:23:49,875 --> 01:23:53,125
<i>to prevent a reunion with her repentant love.</i>

1317
01:23:53,292 --> 01:23:56,958
<i>Weak, helpless like a child again.</i>

1318
01:23:57,750 --> 01:23:58,792
Yours again.

1319
01:23:59,417 --> 01:24:01,333
Until a mistake.

1320
01:24:01,708 --> 01:24:05,167
<i>Mrs. Seminoff watched Alicia
while you slept at last.</i>

1321
01:24:05,333 --> 01:24:09,875
<i>Night fell and Olga grew frightened
when, inevitably, Alicia woke...</i>

1322
01:24:10,042 --> 01:24:12,625
<i>I am sure, disturbed again.</i>

1323
01:24:12,792 --> 01:24:14,667
<i>But what to do?</i>

1324
01:24:15,292 --> 01:24:18,042
<i>And not knowing the real truth...</i>

1325
01:24:18,542 --> 01:24:23,208
<i>Olga Seminoff did what she believed
that you would do...</i>

1326
01:24:23,375 --> 01:24:28,250
<i>and served Alicia Drake calming tea
sweetened with honey.</i>

1327
01:24:29,625 --> 01:24:30,875
<i>Too sweet.</i>

1328
01:24:31,875 --> 01:24:33,417
I didn't know.

1329
01:24:34,167 --> 01:24:35,792
I didn't know.

1330
01:24:36,833 --> 01:24:40,542
Alicia Drake did not run to her balcony
to commit suicide.

1331
01:24:42,042 --> 01:24:44,417
She had overdosed on your poison.

1332
01:24:45,167 --> 01:24:48,125
And her heart had stopped in her sleep.

1333
01:24:48,500 --> 01:24:51,500
<i>You returned from your rest...</i>

1334
01:24:51,667 --> 01:24:54,167
<i>to find her dead.</i>

1335
01:24:55,292 --> 01:24:56,458
<i>And then...</i>

1336
01:24:58,208 --> 01:24:59,833
<i>you made your monstrous choice.</i>

1337
01:25:00,583 --> 01:25:02,583
<i>You made the mark of the Children's Vendetta.</i>

1338
01:25:03,667 --> 01:25:08,167
<i>You cut her, you threw her into the canal,
you made her a suicide.</i>

1339
01:25:09,583 --> 01:25:12,875
<i>A victim of legend. Of ghosts.</i>

1340
01:25:13,375 --> 01:25:16,417
Your love-blind and incapable doctor...

1341
01:25:16,583 --> 01:25:19,083
<i>found nothing to arouse suspicion
at the inquest.</i>

1342
01:25:19,250 --> 01:25:22,917
<i>The police, predisposed to superstition,
easily satisfied.</i>

1343
01:25:23,083 --> 01:25:26,375
The poisoned jar left in the linen cupboard
by the careless housekeeper.

1344
01:25:26,542 --> 01:25:29,458
You had got away
with killing your own child...

1345
01:25:29,625 --> 01:25:33,542
until Ms. Oliver drew my attention
to something.

1346
01:25:33,708 --> 01:25:35,250
Where did all the money go?

1347
01:25:37,083 --> 01:25:38,250
I can't afford to fix it.

1348
01:25:38,417 --> 01:25:40,542
<i>There is usually only one answer.</i>

1349
01:25:41,250 --> 01:25:42,083
<i>Blackmail.</i>

1350
01:25:42,667 --> 01:25:45,292
<i>I suspect that someone had found you out.</i>

1351
01:25:45,458 --> 01:25:47,458
<i>And so you paid for their silence.</i>

1352
01:25:47,625 --> 01:25:49,125
<i>Again and again, you paid.</i>

1353
01:25:49,292 --> 01:25:52,958
But now, with your fortune gone
and this house unsalable at any price...

1354
01:25:53,125 --> 01:25:55,583
you were desperate to get out
from under the blackmailer's thumb.

1355
01:25:55,750 --> 01:25:56,958
But who could it be?

1356
01:25:58,083 --> 01:25:59,958
<i>Your obvious suspect was Doctor Ferrier.</i>

1357
01:26:00,125 --> 01:26:02,083
<i>Perhaps he was not so naive a witness.</i>

1358
01:26:02,250 --> 01:26:06,125
<i>Perhaps finally,
he recognized the poison symptoms.</i>

1359
01:26:06,292 --> 01:26:09,417
<i>And then you received your letter
from the unholy Ms. Reynolds...</i>

1360
01:26:09,583 --> 01:26:11,875
<i>claiming messages from your lost daughter.</i>

1361
01:26:12,042 --> 01:26:14,083
<i>Too many intimate details known...</i>

1362
01:26:14,250 --> 01:26:18,333
<i>teasing knowledge of your crime,
her services offered at a heavy price.</i>

1363
01:26:18,500 --> 01:26:20,542
<i>Surely this was your blackmailer.</i>

1364
01:26:20,708 --> 01:26:22,250
<i>She had to be stopped to be safe.</i>

1365
01:26:22,417 --> 01:26:25,833
<i>Both Ms. Reynolds and Doctor Ferrier
had to be stopped. But how?</i>

1366
01:26:26,000 --> 01:26:29,917
The séance in a haunted house on Halloween.

1367
01:26:30,083 --> 01:26:34,625
The perfect opportunity to conceal the murder
of those you suspected of blackmail.

1368
01:26:35,292 --> 01:26:37,542
Hiding behind superstition, legend, fear.

1369
01:26:38,417 --> 01:26:39,583
<i>The clock struck.</i>

1370
01:26:42,000 --> 01:26:43,000
<i>And so did you.</i>

1371
01:26:44,458 --> 01:26:47,583
<i>But in your haste,
you mistake the wearer of the mask.</i>

1372
01:26:48,750 --> 01:26:51,417
<i>Disposing of me, you find your target.</i>

1373
01:27:00,875 --> 01:27:03,167
I was with Mrs. Seminoff at midnight.

1374
01:27:03,333 --> 01:27:04,333
She was.

1375
01:27:05,125 --> 01:27:06,750
We were together, I saw the time.

1376
01:27:06,917 --> 01:27:09,875
<i>You saw the time on the clock
in the music room...</i>

1377
01:27:10,333 --> 01:27:12,167
<i>where she had asked you to wait.</i>

1378
01:27:12,333 --> 01:27:14,667
<i>A room, which is practically soundproof.</i>

1379
01:27:14,833 --> 01:27:16,417
<i>Which she herself had sealed.</i>

1380
01:27:16,583 --> 01:27:19,875
<i>And in which she had previously
changed the time...</i>

1381
01:27:20,042 --> 01:27:24,208
<i>where you could not even hear
the true midnight bell.</i>

1382
01:27:24,375 --> 01:27:26,250
It read midnight when it was really...

1383
01:27:26,417 --> 01:27:27,917
After Joyce Reynolds' death.

1384
01:27:30,167 --> 01:27:33,667
The damning evidence discarded
with a magician's touch.

1385
01:27:33,833 --> 01:27:34,958
What about Ferrier?

1386
01:27:35,375 --> 01:27:36,792
She wasn't anywhere near him.

1387
01:27:36,958 --> 01:27:40,458
<i>Indeed, she made a show of the locked door,
giving me the sole key.</i>

1388
01:27:40,625 --> 01:27:42,458
But you would not kill Doctor Ferrier
with a knife.

1389
01:27:42,625 --> 01:27:45,583
Your murder weapon would be a telephone.

1390
01:27:45,750 --> 01:27:48,625
The phone line from outside was dead,
of course, because of the storm...

1391
01:27:48,792 --> 01:27:52,000
but the internal line remained clear.

1392
01:27:52,167 --> 01:27:55,125
No telephone call would come
from outside the house.

1393
01:27:56,792 --> 01:27:58,333
Only from inside.

1394
01:27:58,583 --> 01:28:00,375
She, in the dining room.

1395
01:28:00,583 --> 01:28:02,875
<i>He, sealed in the music room.</i>

1396
01:28:03,042 --> 01:28:04,625
<i>I know you've been blackmailing me.</i>

1397
01:28:05,167 --> 01:28:08,667
<i>You confessed to him everything.
To being the murderer of Joyce Reynolds.</i>

1398
01:28:09,042 --> 01:28:11,333
<i>Of staging your own daughter's suicide.</i>

1399
01:28:11,500 --> 01:28:12,583
It's not possible.

1400
01:28:12,750 --> 01:28:14,292
<i>And then you made your threat.</i>

1401
01:28:14,458 --> 01:28:16,208
Do exactly as I tell you.

1402
01:28:16,375 --> 01:28:18,333
<i>You threatened to kill his son...</i>

1403
01:28:18,500 --> 01:28:21,375
No! No, let him go. Leave him.

1404
01:28:22,042 --> 01:28:24,208
<i>...his only reason to live...</i>

1405
01:28:25,292 --> 01:28:27,833
<i>...if he did not do what you told him.</i>

1406
01:28:28,542 --> 01:28:30,458
<i>And what you told him to do...</i>

1407
01:28:31,958 --> 01:28:33,625
<i>was to take the knife.</i>

1408
01:28:41,667 --> 01:28:42,917
She killed my dad?

1409
01:28:43,500 --> 01:28:44,667
And Ms. Reynolds.

1410
01:28:44,833 --> 01:28:46,667
-And Alicia.
-No.

1411
01:28:47,833 --> 01:28:49,625
I would never hurt her.

1412
01:28:50,250 --> 01:28:51,875
It was an accident.

1413
01:28:52,417 --> 01:28:54,083
She was my whole life.

1414
01:28:54,583 --> 01:28:56,708
-You poisoned her.
-To protect her.

1415
01:28:56,875 --> 01:28:59,542
-To control her!
-To keep her safe from you.

1416
01:29:20,458 --> 01:29:22,000
I couldn't let her go.

1417
01:29:24,250 --> 01:29:25,667
She was mine.

1418
01:30:31,000 --> 01:30:32,958
She was the best thing about me.

1419
01:30:34,542 --> 01:30:38,417
And if there is a soul, you gave hers peace.

1420
01:31:04,667 --> 01:31:05,542
<i>Merci.</i>

1421
01:31:05,708 --> 01:31:06,792
<i>Dottore.</i>

1422
01:31:08,917 --> 01:31:12,000
They will rule Ms. Drake a suicide.

1423
01:31:12,167 --> 01:31:14,875
Unless you would like
to make a statement otherwise.

1424
01:31:16,667 --> 01:31:18,875
Can I at least see you safe home...

1425
01:31:19,500 --> 01:31:21,417
before you turn me in for fraud?

1426
01:31:24,167 --> 01:31:26,167
In the daylight...

1427
01:31:26,333 --> 01:31:28,375
neither appears necessary.

1428
01:31:29,000 --> 01:31:31,333
In the end, it is you protecting me, <i>Dottore.</i>

1429
01:31:39,708 --> 01:31:40,833
Come on then, Leopold.

1430
01:31:41,083 --> 01:31:42,458
Let me do the top button up.

1431
01:31:42,625 --> 01:31:43,792
It's fine, Miss Olga.

1432
01:31:43,958 --> 01:31:45,042
Very smart.

1433
01:31:45,500 --> 01:31:47,167
-I don't need a coat.
-You'll be cold.

1434
01:31:47,333 --> 01:31:48,250
I'm fine.

1435
01:31:48,417 --> 01:31:50,292
I know it's sunny, but it's still cold.

1436
01:31:50,458 --> 01:31:52,125
-That's much better.
-Miss Olga, I'm fine.

1437
01:31:52,292 --> 01:31:53,750
-Very handsome.
-Thanks.

1438
01:31:55,625 --> 01:31:56,792
<i>Madame.</i>

1439
01:31:57,375 --> 01:32:01,000
He'll live with me and Mr. Seminoff.
And Harry.

1440
01:32:03,250 --> 01:32:04,958
We'll mind him as our own.

1441
01:32:05,708 --> 01:32:07,708
Might insist on a bit more sunshine.

1442
01:32:09,500 --> 01:32:11,542
You are a precocious boy...

1443
01:32:12,083 --> 01:32:15,250
who is perhaps ashamed
at how much he likes attention.

1444
01:32:16,167 --> 01:32:18,000
I know something of this.

1445
01:32:20,083 --> 01:32:23,208
You must not blame yourself
for anything that happened in this house.

1446
01:32:24,000 --> 01:32:25,167
Why would he do that?

1447
01:32:26,125 --> 01:32:27,917
But it's all my fault.

1448
01:32:28,917 --> 01:32:31,750
You did not care for the money for yourself.

1449
01:32:32,292 --> 01:32:34,292
You wanted to help your father.

1450
01:32:35,750 --> 01:32:37,042
Dad couldn't work.

1451
01:32:38,167 --> 01:32:40,417
I only used the money to pay for our bills.

1452
01:32:41,875 --> 01:32:44,000
I didn't even know what to do with the rest.

1453
01:32:44,167 --> 01:32:48,792
Rowena Drake presumed the blackmailer
was the fake medium or the family doctor...

1454
01:32:49,708 --> 01:32:51,083
when it was neither.

1455
01:32:51,250 --> 01:32:53,875
Only the doctor's son saw the truth.

1456
01:32:54,042 --> 01:32:56,250
It was obvious from Dad's notes.

1457
01:32:57,375 --> 01:32:58,708
Mad honey poisoning...

1458
01:32:58,875 --> 01:33:01,458
just like Mitridate from her opera.

1459
01:33:01,625 --> 01:33:03,042
The Poison King.

1460
01:33:04,417 --> 01:33:07,083
I read all about it in one of her books
in the library.

1461
01:33:08,292 --> 01:33:11,833
And so, I tested the theory.

1462
01:33:12,000 --> 01:33:14,000
You sent a blackmail letter.

1463
01:33:17,500 --> 01:33:18,792
And another.

1464
01:33:25,375 --> 01:33:28,583
Perhaps there is a use for this money
in your mattress.

1465
01:33:30,708 --> 01:33:32,417
To make good of regret.

1466
01:33:35,458 --> 01:33:39,083
We survived before Ms. Reynolds.
We'll do better than survive.

1467
01:33:39,750 --> 01:33:41,708
I promise we'll get to America. We will.

1468
01:33:41,875 --> 01:33:43,458
Come with us, you two.

1469
01:33:45,583 --> 01:33:46,792
To the police station?

1470
01:33:47,833 --> 01:33:51,458
Us, to home. You, to America.
Missouri, I understand.

1471
01:33:51,625 --> 01:33:55,208
Passage for two. We can help with that.
I think.

1472
01:34:07,833 --> 01:34:09,042
Thank you.

1473
01:34:13,042 --> 01:34:14,417
Thank you, thank you so much.

1474
01:34:14,583 --> 01:34:16,417
Leave some space for Leopold, please.

1475
01:34:21,542 --> 01:34:22,750
You solved the case.

1476
01:34:23,875 --> 01:34:25,042
But you had help...

1477
01:34:25,458 --> 01:34:26,458
didn't you?

1478
01:34:27,708 --> 01:34:28,792
You heard her.

1479
01:34:30,875 --> 01:34:32,250
<i>Bonne chance,</i> my friend.

1480
01:34:32,917 --> 01:34:34,208
Don't worry...

1481
01:34:34,667 --> 01:34:37,250
people who die in this house
always come back.

1482
01:34:38,542 --> 01:34:39,792
I'll see them again.

1483
01:34:48,833 --> 01:34:50,417
See you soon, Dad.

1484
01:35:17,667 --> 01:35:19,917
I won't apologize. You've ruined my book.

1485
01:35:20,083 --> 01:35:21,958
Neither living nor proof.
I have to rewrite the whole thing.

1486
01:35:22,125 --> 01:35:23,792
So long as it does not include my name.

1487
01:35:23,958 --> 01:35:25,792
I never want to hear your name again.

1488
01:35:27,625 --> 01:35:30,167
Just a house now. All debunked.

1489
01:35:33,083 --> 01:35:34,792
But you've got the look of a believer.

1490
01:35:35,542 --> 01:35:36,750
You did. You saw something.

1491
01:35:36,917 --> 01:35:38,750
I was under the influence.

1492
01:35:38,917 --> 01:35:43,875
My subconscious mind assembled facts
ahead of the rational.

1493
01:35:45,583 --> 01:35:46,583
You saw.

1494
01:35:48,167 --> 01:35:49,417
You know.

1495
01:35:53,417 --> 01:35:57,500
I know only that we cannot hide
from our ghosts.

1496
01:35:58,625 --> 01:36:00,958
Whether they are real or not...

1497
01:36:04,125 --> 01:36:06,125
we must make our peace with them.

1498
01:36:07,500 --> 01:36:09,625
And live life.

1499
01:36:09,792 --> 01:36:10,792
Somehow.

1500
01:36:12,458 --> 01:36:14,292
And how will you live your life?

1501
01:36:57,958 --> 01:36:59,042
<i>Monsieur</i> Poirot?

1502
01:37:00,833 --> 01:37:01,875
<i>Monsieur</i> Poirot?

1503
01:37:03,792 --> 01:37:07,417
Your parents died
one soon after the other.

1504
01:37:07,583 --> 01:37:08,917
Then, your brother.

1505
01:37:09,083 --> 01:37:12,583
Your trusted doctor is a beloved friend
to the family.

1506
01:37:12,750 --> 01:37:16,917
Your brother was unmarried,
as are you. No other relations.

1507
01:37:17,083 --> 01:37:19,250
Your family is not cursed.

1508
01:37:19,417 --> 01:37:22,917
I strongly suspect
your brother added a codicil to his will...

1509
01:37:23,083 --> 01:37:25,083
naming your doctor as beneficiary...

1510
01:37:25,250 --> 01:37:27,042
should all members
of your small family perish.

1511
01:37:27,208 --> 01:37:29,958
After which I strongly suspect
he also murdered them...

1512
01:37:30,125 --> 01:37:31,958
claiming natural causes at their deathbeds.

1513
01:37:32,125 --> 01:37:35,208
And your life is next in danger.
You may wish to sit.

1514
01:37:47,083 --> 01:37:48,083
Please.

1515
01:37:50,500 --> 01:37:54,958
So, correct me if I am wrong, <i>monsieur,
</i>your doctor was a family friend?

1516
01:37:55,125 --> 01:37:58,417
You would play together as children.
This much is clear.

1517
01:37:58,583 --> 01:38:01,333
However, your mother was
closer to you, right? Yes.
