1
00:00:29,581 --> 00:00:31,100
Health.
2
00:00:31,203 --> 00:00:32,791
Thank you very much.
3
00:00:34,137 --> 00:00:36,208
Thank you very much.
Thank you darling.
4
00:00:36,795 --> 00:00:40,109
For Barnabas,
for a well-deserved promotion,
5
00:00:40,212 --> 00:00:42,214
Chief clerk, can you believe it?
6
00:00:42,318 --> 00:00:44,320
Congratulations.
7
00:00:44,423 --> 00:00:46,701
Bravo, Mr. Potts.
Congratulations.
8
00:00:47,116 --> 00:00:48,655
Thank you, my dear.
Thanks.
9
00:00:49,566 --> 00:00:51,810
Not one...
10
00:00:52,052 --> 00:00:54,212
five other morgues
for which he is responsible.
11
00:00:54,295 --> 00:00:55,952
Three, my dear, not five,
12
00:00:56,056 --> 00:00:58,644
as I believe I mentioned before.
13
00:01:00,543 --> 00:01:02,807
You are very kind to us
take it to dinner, Mr. Potts.
14
00:01:02,890 --> 00:01:04,892
And the menu looks really delicious,
15
00:01:04,995 --> 00:01:06,928
particularly Chateaubriand.
16
00:01:07,032 --> 00:01:09,724
It's a pleasure.
And feel free
17
00:01:09,828 --> 00:01:11,933
to choose anything,
18
00:01:12,037 --> 00:01:14,108
up to a cost of three shillings each.
19
00:01:18,423 --> 00:01:20,321
This wine is very expensive, my dear.
20
00:01:20,425 --> 00:01:22,275
Maybe you want to savor it instead of...
21
00:01:22,358 --> 00:01:23,897
Barnabas, the most exciting thing
22
00:01:23,980 --> 00:01:25,140
what happened to me all week
23
00:01:25,223 --> 00:01:26,141
went to save a spider
24
00:01:26,224 --> 00:01:27,466
from the kitchen sink.
25
00:01:27,949 --> 00:01:29,834
I've been waiting for
this dinner all week,
26
00:01:29,917 --> 00:01:33,127
so please let me enjoy.
27
00:01:38,822 --> 00:01:42,102
With regards to the
Gentleman at table six, Madame.
28
00:01:42,205 --> 00:01:44,932
For me?
29
00:01:45,277 --> 00:01:47,486
They are from the Guild of
Private Detectives.
30
00:01:47,866 --> 00:01:50,524
That's the president and the
vice president, no less.
31
00:01:51,835 --> 00:01:56,737
Just to clarify,
This doesn't go into my account, does it?
32
00:01:57,047 --> 00:01:58,138
Would you excuse me for a moment?
33
00:01:58,221 --> 00:01:59,809
Of course.
34
00:02:02,363 --> 00:02:03,985
Gentlemen, I... I wanted
35
00:02:04,089 --> 00:02:05,387
thank you for your very kind gesture.
36
00:02:05,470 --> 00:02:07,403
You're welcome, Miss. Scarlet.
37
00:02:07,644 --> 00:02:08,852
Allow me to introduce myself.
38
00:02:08,956 --> 00:02:11,061
My name is Edmund Fletcher.
39
00:02:11,407 --> 00:02:15,238
I'm president of the guild
of Private Detectives,
40
00:02:15,583 --> 00:02:17,620
and this is our vice president.
41
00:02:17,723 --> 00:02:19,415
Archibald Spilsbury.
42
00:02:20,036 --> 00:02:21,658
Please.
43
00:02:23,971 --> 00:02:25,352
Thanks.
44
00:02:28,458 --> 00:02:31,496
Well, that's very fortuitous.
45
00:02:31,944 --> 00:02:34,326
We were talking about you this morning.
46
00:02:34,602 --> 00:02:35,638
They were?
47
00:02:35,741 --> 00:02:36,984
Miss Scarlet...
48
00:02:37,398 --> 00:02:39,331
we would very much like you
49
00:02:39,435 --> 00:02:41,471
join our number.
50
00:02:43,508 --> 00:02:46,166
That would be an honor indeed.
51
00:02:46,545 --> 00:02:48,582
Guild sponsorship
would be very welcome.
52
00:02:50,273 --> 00:02:53,034
There is a small matter
that we need to discuss
53
00:02:53,138 --> 00:02:55,209
before confirming your membership.
54
00:02:55,313 --> 00:02:59,248
This is the new Detective Inspector
55
00:02:59,351 --> 00:03:01,422
from Scotland Yard.
56
00:03:01,836 --> 00:03:02,975
Inspector Blake?
Yes.
57
00:03:03,079 --> 00:03:03,912
What does he have?
58
00:03:04,011 --> 00:03:05,495
He has intention
59
00:03:05,599 --> 00:03:07,566
to maintain the ridiculous notion,
60
00:03:07,670 --> 00:03:09,879
not to use private detectives.
61
00:03:10,328 --> 00:03:12,640
We need to act.
62
00:03:12,951 --> 00:03:14,401
Fortunately,
63
00:03:14,504 --> 00:03:17,473
We have an ace up our sleeve.
64
00:03:18,370 --> 00:03:20,855
You, Miss. Scarlet.
65
00:03:21,201 --> 00:03:23,064
Sorry. I don't...
I don't understand.
66
00:03:23,168 --> 00:03:26,930
Inspector Blake refused to...
67
00:03:27,207 --> 00:03:30,175
meet to discuss
your misguided policy,
68
00:03:30,279 --> 00:03:32,281
but we believe it already has
69
00:03:32,384 --> 00:03:34,283
crossed his path
70
00:03:34,386 --> 00:03:35,939
several times.
71
00:03:36,595 --> 00:03:38,114
The role of detective inspector
72
00:03:38,218 --> 00:03:40,323
is increasingly political,
73
00:03:40,427 --> 00:03:43,740
requires a reputation
whiter than white.
74
00:03:43,844 --> 00:03:46,398
And yet Inspector Blake
75
00:03:46,502 --> 00:03:49,021
been alone with you...
76
00:03:49,125 --> 00:03:51,369
on several occasions.
77
00:03:56,477 --> 00:03:58,134
They weren't here by chance
78
00:03:58,238 --> 00:03:59,963
tonight, right?
79
00:04:00,274 --> 00:04:03,104
Make an accusation of
obscene behavior
80
00:04:03,208 --> 00:04:04,174
on his part.
81
00:04:04,278 --> 00:04:05,866
Maybe he suggested
82
00:04:05,969 --> 00:04:08,040
certain favors
83
00:04:08,144 --> 00:04:10,077
in exchange for employment.
84
00:04:10,180 --> 00:04:12,976
Or tried to force himself on you.
85
00:04:16,117 --> 00:04:18,258
Do this...
86
00:04:18,361 --> 00:04:20,280
and it will be guaranteed
as a member of the Guild
87
00:04:20,363 --> 00:04:22,676
with all the benefits that this brings.
88
00:04:23,504 --> 00:04:27,197
Forgive me if I toast
your health with water.
89
00:04:27,301 --> 00:04:30,546
Unfortunately I'm a teetotaler
on the advice of a doctor
90
00:04:30,649 --> 00:04:33,756
which is determined to
take all the pleasure away from me.
91
00:04:33,859 --> 00:04:35,136
So...
92
00:04:35,516 --> 00:04:38,588
Miss Scarlet, do we have a deal?
93
00:04:49,461 --> 00:04:50,876
No, certainly not.
94
00:05:39,546 --> 00:05:41,720
Good morning.
Good morning. Thanks.
95
00:05:52,869 --> 00:05:54,996
Should have been dressed
and ready for school.
96
00:05:57,736 --> 00:05:59,428
I don't like it there, daddy,
97
00:05:59,531 --> 00:06:01,706
girls are bad.
98
00:06:12,268 --> 00:06:14,028
If you go to school,
99
00:06:14,132 --> 00:06:16,652
I promise we will have dinner
together tonight,
100
00:06:16,755 --> 00:06:19,551
and I'll tell you everything about my day,
101
00:06:19,655 --> 00:06:21,829
including all men
bad guys that I arrest.
102
00:06:21,933 --> 00:06:23,175
Promise?
103
00:06:24,004 --> 00:06:25,971
Promise.
104
00:06:40,641 --> 00:06:42,180
Good morning, my jewel.
Barnabas.
105
00:06:42,263 --> 00:06:44,113
Just in time.
Breakfast is ready.
106
00:06:44,196 --> 00:06:47,545
It's the first day in my
new position as chief clerk.
107
00:06:47,648 --> 00:06:48,773
And a much needed balance
108
00:06:48,856 --> 00:06:50,444
is needed at Aldgate Mortuary.
109
00:06:50,548 --> 00:06:51,742
So I came here to inform you
110
00:06:51,825 --> 00:06:52,777
I will not participate
111
00:06:52,860 --> 00:06:53,951
from breakfast this morning.
112
00:06:54,034 --> 00:06:55,138
But now I've done it.
113
00:06:55,242 --> 00:06:56,588
Well...
114
00:06:56,692 --> 00:06:57,969
There's a hole in the sleeve.
115
00:06:58,072 --> 00:06:59,232
When you have time, can you patch it?
116
00:06:59,315 --> 00:07:00,889
Once again, what have you been doing?
117
00:07:00,972 --> 00:07:02,373
Well, if I told you,
you would just be worried.
118
00:07:02,456 --> 00:07:03,561
Mr. Potts.
119
00:07:03,664 --> 00:07:04,941
Miss Scarlet,
120
00:07:05,045 --> 00:07:06,066
I really don't have time
121
00:07:06,149 --> 00:07:07,205
to eat, my dear.
122
00:07:07,288 --> 00:07:08,773
Very well, then go.
123
00:07:08,876 --> 00:07:09,774
Ladies.
124
00:07:09,877 --> 00:07:11,500
Sit down.
Have a breakfast.
125
00:07:11,603 --> 00:07:13,246
I don't have time either, I need to go.
126
00:07:13,329 --> 00:07:15,041
Well, will you be home for dinner?
127
00:07:15,124 --> 00:07:16,056
Lizzie?
128
00:07:36,594 --> 00:07:38,250
Good morning, Inspector Blake.
129
00:07:38,354 --> 00:07:40,770
Do you know the convention of spanking, Miss?
Scarlet?
130
00:07:41,081 --> 00:07:42,289
But I knocked.
131
00:07:42,703 --> 00:07:45,192
Then you should wait
to be invited in.
132
00:07:45,637 --> 00:07:47,349
I have an urgent matter
to discuss with you,
133
00:07:47,432 --> 00:07:49,469
about the Guild of
Private Detectives.
134
00:07:49,676 --> 00:07:51,609
I'm here to give you a warning.
135
00:07:51,919 --> 00:07:54,543
They are far from
happy with their current policy
136
00:07:54,646 --> 00:07:56,476
about private investigators.
137
00:07:56,579 --> 00:07:58,118
Please
tell me you're not here on their behalf.
138
00:07:58,201 --> 00:08:00,549
Nothing could be
further from the truth.
139
00:08:00,652 --> 00:08:04,760
But...
well the guild has money and influence,
140
00:08:05,001 --> 00:08:06,748
they opposed you
and they will stop at nothing
141
00:08:06,831 --> 00:08:08,211
to undermine your position.
142
00:08:12,422 --> 00:08:14,873
Why exactly
are you telling me this?
143
00:08:14,977 --> 00:08:18,083
Well... I thought you should know.
144
00:08:20,430 --> 00:08:21,659
So you're giving me this information
145
00:08:21,742 --> 00:08:23,226
out of the kindness of your heart?
146
00:08:23,675 --> 00:08:25,283
Is there nothing you want in return?
147
00:08:25,366 --> 00:08:26,229
Absolutely nothing.
148
00:08:30,199 --> 00:08:32,719
Of course, that... benefits me
149
00:08:32,822 --> 00:08:35,100
be on good terms
with the Detective Inspector.
150
00:08:35,204 --> 00:08:36,550
There it is.
151
00:08:40,278 --> 00:08:42,487
If you need to know,
152
00:08:42,591 --> 00:08:44,524
they insulted me deeply.
153
00:08:46,215 --> 00:08:49,321
The Guild President and
Your lackey asked me to...
154
00:08:49,839 --> 00:08:52,255
I was asked to do...
certain charges against you.
155
00:08:53,947 --> 00:08:55,776
What kind of charges?
156
00:09:04,820 --> 00:09:08,133
It's really nice to finally meet you,
Inspector.
157
00:09:08,375 --> 00:09:10,273
I tried several times
158
00:09:10,377 --> 00:09:12,344
get to know him.
159
00:09:12,448 --> 00:09:16,866
But unfortunately,
was not available.
160
00:09:16,970 --> 00:09:18,937
We have something in common.
You and me,
161
00:09:19,041 --> 00:09:20,939
we both served in the Royal Engineers.
162
00:09:21,043 --> 00:09:23,597
Best years of my life,
163
00:09:23,701 --> 00:09:25,012
even with the...
164
00:09:26,289 --> 00:09:28,119
war wounds.
165
00:09:30,224 --> 00:09:32,675
I believe he also served in Africa.
166
00:09:32,779 --> 00:09:35,077
I didn't come here to
share war stories.
167
00:09:35,160 --> 00:09:38,163
I came here to leave
very clear in person.
168
00:09:38,267 --> 00:09:42,374
I will manage my division
the way you think is best,
169
00:09:42,858 --> 00:09:45,032
and no threat or
blackmail attempt
170
00:09:45,136 --> 00:09:48,139
will have any effect on
any decision I make.
171
00:09:48,311 --> 00:09:51,729
I hope I was clear, sir. Fletcher.
172
00:09:54,283 --> 00:09:55,871
I understand.
173
00:09:55,974 --> 00:09:58,839
The detective came to visit you.
174
00:09:58,943 --> 00:10:00,910
I hope this settles the matter.
175
00:10:01,877 --> 00:10:03,913
I'm afraid not.
176
00:10:04,569 --> 00:10:06,847
Try looking at it from my perspective.
177
00:10:08,124 --> 00:10:11,300
I was president of the guild
178
00:10:12,439 --> 00:10:14,993
over the last seventeen years,
179
00:10:15,166 --> 00:10:18,100
and during that time, I had all the support
180
00:10:18,203 --> 00:10:20,240
of all our members.
181
00:10:20,723 --> 00:10:23,070
No less than two thousand of them.
182
00:10:23,174 --> 00:10:24,900
And above all...
183
00:10:25,763 --> 00:10:29,318
my duty... is to ensure
184
00:10:29,421 --> 00:10:32,873
May your business prosper.
185
00:10:33,287 --> 00:10:37,222
If he fails in this duty,
186
00:10:37,326 --> 00:10:39,121
then I will appear weak.
187
00:10:41,019 --> 00:10:44,160
I can't afford the luxury
of looking weak, Inspector.
188
00:10:44,367 --> 00:10:45,783
My heart bleeds for you.
189
00:10:48,924 --> 00:10:50,719
Has a daughter,
190
00:10:50,822 --> 00:10:52,444
isn't it?
191
00:10:52,548 --> 00:10:55,793
If for some unfortunate reason
192
00:10:55,896 --> 00:10:57,898
lose your job,
193
00:10:58,002 --> 00:11:02,316
she will also feel the consequences.
194
00:11:02,420 --> 00:11:03,455
And as a father,
195
00:11:03,559 --> 00:11:05,734
you must certainly be worried
196
00:11:05,837 --> 00:11:08,115
with your well-being.
197
00:11:29,792 --> 00:11:31,138
Very good.
198
00:11:32,588 --> 00:11:34,832
I'll hire a private detective
199
00:11:34,935 --> 00:11:36,799
starting tomorrow.
200
00:11:37,800 --> 00:11:39,629
That's good to hear.
201
00:11:40,182 --> 00:11:44,082
I will...
see a list of favorites...
202
00:11:44,186 --> 00:11:45,325
There's no need.
203
00:11:46,844 --> 00:11:48,397
I have someone in mind.
204
00:11:50,917 --> 00:11:52,504
The detective.
205
00:11:54,783 --> 00:11:57,406
Unfortunately, Miss Scarlet
206
00:11:57,509 --> 00:11:59,753
is not a member of the Guild.
207
00:12:01,651 --> 00:12:04,689
Yes, that's unfortunate.
208
00:12:16,114 --> 00:12:18,116
-Get your Morning Heralds.
209
00:12:18,427 --> 00:12:21,504
-This is the Morning Herald, news
fresh from this morning's press.
210
00:12:23,673 --> 00:12:26,055
Thanks.
211
00:12:35,306 --> 00:12:37,549
Miss Scarlet.
Inspector Blake.
212
00:12:37,653 --> 00:12:40,104
Arrived early.
Extremely early.
213
00:12:40,207 --> 00:12:41,830
I received your telegram last night
214
00:12:41,933 --> 00:12:43,659
and I'm here to serve.
215
00:12:43,832 --> 00:12:45,730
In which case should I work?
216
00:12:46,041 --> 00:12:47,732
Background Checks
217
00:12:47,836 --> 00:12:49,237
for a new administrative office?
218
00:12:49,320 --> 00:12:50,756
We also need
interview and evaluate
219
00:12:50,839 --> 00:12:52,702
candidates regarding their suitability.
220
00:12:53,013 --> 00:12:54,704
We need experienced women,
221
00:12:54,808 --> 00:12:56,361
and most importantly, trustworthy.
222
00:12:56,465 --> 00:12:58,728
They will handle files
highly confidential.
223
00:12:59,399 --> 00:13:00,800
I set up an office
similar in Bristol
224
00:13:00,883 --> 00:13:02,229
and it worked very well.
225
00:13:02,333 --> 00:13:04,335
Here is a list of the candidates.
226
00:13:04,438 --> 00:13:05,992
They will be here at 11:00.
227
00:13:06,786 --> 00:13:11,066
Well... but that's not
exactly what I expected.
228
00:13:11,169 --> 00:13:13,951
I thought you hired me
to work on a real case.
229
00:13:14,034 --> 00:13:15,573
This room will be vital
for good progress
230
00:13:15,656 --> 00:13:16,726
from Scotland Yard.
231
00:13:16,830 --> 00:13:17,783
This will free my detectives
232
00:13:17,866 --> 00:13:19,281
of administrative functions.
233
00:13:20,765 --> 00:13:22,530
Miss Scarlet, is that a frown?
234
00:13:23,630 --> 00:13:25,321
No.
235
00:13:25,425 --> 00:13:26,633
No, it's not a frown.
236
00:13:26,736 --> 00:13:28,221
I'm just thinking.
237
00:13:30,430 --> 00:13:32,625
This is the work I'm going to
hire you to do it.
238
00:13:32,708 --> 00:13:34,330
Do or don't do.
239
00:13:34,434 --> 00:13:35,815
You decide.
240
00:13:37,471 --> 00:13:39,715
My name is Cynthia Quinn.
241
00:13:39,819 --> 00:13:41,613
I'm 24 years old.
242
00:13:41,717 --> 00:13:43,339
I worked in three offices,
243
00:13:43,443 --> 00:13:45,928
two lawyers,
an accounting office,
244
00:13:46,032 --> 00:13:47,896
all of whom would not hesitate
245
00:13:47,999 --> 00:13:49,414
on the recommendation they gave me.
246
00:13:51,485 --> 00:13:53,838
And it already had a function
similar administrative before?
247
00:13:54,350 --> 00:13:55,489
Yes, I did.
248
00:13:57,284 --> 00:13:59,839
And did you train in shorthand?
249
00:13:59,942 --> 00:14:01,461
Absolutely.
250
00:14:02,013 --> 00:14:03,898
And he has worked in
full time before?
251
00:14:03,981 --> 00:14:05,637
Often.
252
00:14:06,052 --> 00:14:07,501
And I see here that your
253
00:14:07,605 --> 00:14:08,917
previous positions...
254
00:14:09,020 --> 00:14:10,470
Where should I put the others?
255
00:14:10,988 --> 00:14:12,230
What others?
256
00:14:26,935 --> 00:14:28,937
There are so many.
257
00:14:29,040 --> 00:14:30,386
And more will come tomorrow,
258
00:14:30,490 --> 00:14:31,871
and the next day.
259
00:14:33,010 --> 00:14:34,687
That was just the interviews.
God knows how long
260
00:14:34,770 --> 00:14:36,447
the checks of
antecedents will be carried out.
261
00:14:36,530 --> 00:14:38,670
I thought that was what I wanted.
262
00:14:38,774 --> 00:14:40,396
Inspector Blake hires her.
263
00:14:40,500 --> 00:14:41,708
And it is.
264
00:14:42,295 --> 00:14:44,110
And I'm trying mine
better to do what he asks,
265
00:14:44,193 --> 00:14:45,836
to play by your rules.
266
00:14:45,919 --> 00:14:47,817
Establish a working relationship.
267
00:14:48,680 --> 00:14:51,683
I can't help but feel
that this specific task is...
268
00:14:52,098 --> 00:14:53,499
no... inferior to me.
269
00:14:53,582 --> 00:14:54,583
Inferior to you?
270
00:14:57,655 --> 00:14:59,243
Do you know what I did today?
271
00:14:59,657 --> 00:15:00,623
I ironed clothes.
272
00:15:00,727 --> 00:15:01,728
Then I did laundry.
273
00:15:01,831 --> 00:15:03,212
Then more ironing.
274
00:15:03,316 --> 00:15:04,717
So sitting in Scotland Yard
275
00:15:04,800 --> 00:15:06,422
on a beautiful, bright table,
276
00:15:06,526 --> 00:15:08,873
interviewing women
intelligent and ambitious,
277
00:15:08,977 --> 00:15:10,875
It's not the worst thing in the world.
278
00:15:11,358 --> 00:15:12,808
And you should be satisfied.
279
00:15:12,912 --> 00:15:14,327
You are helping these girls
280
00:15:14,430 --> 00:15:16,225
to make something of themselves.
281
00:15:16,329 --> 00:15:17,951
What happened to "In my time,
282
00:15:18,055 --> 00:15:20,077
we found a man
cool and we settled down"?
283
00:15:20,160 --> 00:15:22,473
I am allowed to change my mind.
284
00:15:29,100 --> 00:15:30,930
You don't seem like yourself lately.
285
00:15:33,035 --> 00:15:34,347
Everything is fine?
286
00:15:34,795 --> 00:15:35,727
Yes.
287
00:15:38,351 --> 00:15:39,421
No.
288
00:15:43,632 --> 00:15:44,978
I don't know.
289
00:15:47,912 --> 00:15:50,156
Barnabas got his new job.
290
00:15:50,570 --> 00:15:52,878
You... you are always
up to something different.
291
00:15:53,780 --> 00:15:55,506
But I...
292
00:15:55,609 --> 00:15:57,059
every day is the same.
293
00:15:58,888 --> 00:16:00,683
See, now I've worried you.
294
00:16:00,787 --> 00:16:03,617
That's why people
They should keep things to themselves.
295
00:16:04,032 --> 00:16:05,378
I'm going to make dinner.
296
00:16:06,275 --> 00:16:08,174
What can I do to cheer you up?
297
00:16:08,829 --> 00:16:10,141
I know...
298
00:16:10,245 --> 00:16:11,094
I'll prepare dinner
for us tonight.
299
00:16:11,177 --> 00:16:12,026
I thought you wanted
300
00:16:12,109 --> 00:16:13,317
cheer me up.
301
00:16:33,061 --> 00:16:34,407
Good morning, Miss. Scarlet.
302
00:16:34,510 --> 00:16:36,098
Detective Fitzroy, how are you?
303
00:16:36,202 --> 00:16:37,858
Very well, thank you.
304
00:16:38,273 --> 00:16:40,083
It seems like it is
very busy at the moment.
305
00:16:40,965 --> 00:16:42,346
If you need help,
306
00:16:42,449 --> 00:16:43,864
Let me know.
307
00:16:43,968 --> 00:16:45,556
Want to help me interview
308
00:16:45,659 --> 00:16:47,592
a group of young, attractive women?
309
00:16:48,214 --> 00:16:49,525
No.
No, that's not...
310
00:16:49,629 --> 00:16:52,080
I... I... I was just...
I never...
311
00:16:52,183 --> 00:16:55,083
Sir, message from Inspector Blake.
312
00:16:56,394 --> 00:17:00,122
I...
I'll meet you at 25 Girton Street.
313
00:17:01,951 --> 00:17:04,437
That address looks familiar.
314
00:17:04,540 --> 00:17:06,218
It's the Private Detectives Guild.
315
00:17:06,301 --> 00:17:08,061
A corpse was found.
316
00:17:08,579 --> 00:17:09,752
From who?
317
00:17:12,583 --> 00:17:15,689
Said he was found
by an employee. What time?
318
00:17:15,793 --> 00:17:17,657
Eight o'clock in the morning, sir.
319
00:17:18,589 --> 00:17:19,831
Thanks.
320
00:17:19,935 --> 00:17:21,523
Keep taking depositions.
321
00:17:21,902 --> 00:17:23,180
Sir.
322
00:17:36,503 --> 00:17:38,850
Sir.
I'm glad you're here, I...
323
00:17:40,507 --> 00:17:42,233
Why did you bring Ms. Scarlet?
324
00:17:42,509 --> 00:17:44,497
I have had recent dealings with this man.
I came to help.
325
00:17:44,580 --> 00:17:46,893
My question was
addressed to Detective Fitzroy.
326
00:17:47,480 --> 00:17:49,951
I believed she could be useful,
and how Miss. scarlet
327
00:17:50,034 --> 00:17:51,953
said he had relations
recent with the deceased and...
328
00:17:52,036 --> 00:17:53,520
We will discuss this later.
329
00:17:54,003 --> 00:17:55,646
This is the appointment schedule
from Fletcher, I want to talk
330
00:17:55,729 --> 00:17:57,234
with everyone he met yesterday.
Yes sir.
331
00:17:57,317 --> 00:17:58,546
And send a message
to the city morgue.
332
00:17:58,629 --> 00:17:59,996
I want a complete list of poisons
333
00:18:00,079 --> 00:18:01,618
that they can test.
Immediately, sir.
334
00:18:01,701 --> 00:18:04,324
Poisons, did you say?
335
00:18:04,428 --> 00:18:06,347
This would explain this
sickly sweet smell.
336
00:18:06,430 --> 00:18:08,521
Yes I know.
And no other signs of trauma
337
00:18:08,604 --> 00:18:11,020
in addition to this puncture wound.
338
00:18:11,124 --> 00:18:13,092
From a syringe, I would say.
339
00:18:13,195 --> 00:18:14,148
But it appears there are none present.
340
00:18:14,231 --> 00:18:15,473
Again, I know.
341
00:18:17,613 --> 00:18:19,236
Chateau Lemaître.
342
00:18:19,891 --> 00:18:21,776
The man had expensive taste,
which is curious,
343
00:18:21,859 --> 00:18:22,810
since he didn't drink.
344
00:18:24,896 --> 00:18:26,553
You didn't know that, did you?
345
00:18:27,416 --> 00:18:29,542
Miss Scarlet,
if you do not return to your job,
346
00:18:29,625 --> 00:18:31,234
the tasks for which
I'm paying you,
347
00:18:31,317 --> 00:18:33,284
our contract will be terminated.
348
00:18:33,698 --> 00:18:34,906
Is it understood?
349
00:18:35,666 --> 00:18:36,667
Very good.
350
00:18:39,048 --> 00:18:40,208
You know where I am if you need me.
351
00:18:40,291 --> 00:18:42,224
I know.
And I won't need to.
352
00:19:00,380 --> 00:19:01,657
Good morning, Arthur.
353
00:19:01,761 --> 00:19:04,004
Good morning, Ivy.
354
00:19:04,108 --> 00:19:06,352
The usual?
Am I that predictable?
355
00:19:08,112 --> 00:19:09,078
See you tomorrow.
356
00:19:09,182 --> 00:19:10,356
Thanks.
357
00:19:32,101 --> 00:19:33,278
I think she's lost.
358
00:19:33,517 --> 00:19:35,035
Are you here for the interview?
359
00:19:41,801 --> 00:19:42,733
Miss Kingston.
360
00:19:45,977 --> 00:19:47,496
The butcher shop is next door.
361
00:20:29,331 --> 00:20:30,801
Thanks again for coming.
362
00:20:30,884 --> 00:20:32,300
It was a pleasure meeting you.
363
00:20:34,267 --> 00:20:35,613
Is now a good time?
364
00:20:35,717 --> 00:20:37,132
Yes.
365
00:20:37,236 --> 00:20:38,956
I don't have any more interviews until tomorrow.
366
00:20:40,342 --> 00:20:41,778
A few more days like this and we will be done.
367
00:20:41,861 --> 00:20:43,103
Thank God.
368
00:20:43,207 --> 00:20:44,882
Well, it is a paid job after all.
369
00:20:45,623 --> 00:20:48,039
That's not the point, Clarence.
370
00:20:48,212 --> 00:20:49,268
I was waiting for the opportunity
371
00:20:49,351 --> 00:20:50,718
to impress Inspector Blake.
372
00:20:50,801 --> 00:20:51,871
Impress?
373
00:20:51,974 --> 00:20:54,114
Yes.
Show him my worth.
374
00:20:54,425 --> 00:20:56,255
Set future appointments.
375
00:20:56,358 --> 00:20:57,828
There are many ways
to impress someone.
376
00:20:57,911 --> 00:20:59,244
I, for example,
I can't help but be impressed
377
00:20:59,327 --> 00:21:00,949
with a well-presented audit.
378
00:21:01,467 --> 00:21:04,504
Numbers.
They may have poetry in them.
379
00:21:05,540 --> 00:21:06,906
Anyway,
I will return to the subject at hand.
380
00:21:06,989 --> 00:21:09,081
I have been working on
background checks
381
00:21:09,164 --> 00:21:10,545
of yesterday's candidates,
382
00:21:10,648 --> 00:21:12,409
and most of them came back clean.
383
00:21:12,512 --> 00:21:14,997
But there is a candidate
that caught my attention.
384
00:21:15,239 --> 00:21:16,896
Cynthia Quinn.
385
00:21:17,241 --> 00:21:19,623
Cynthia Quinn?
386
00:21:19,726 --> 00:21:22,419
She was one of the first
candidates I interviewed.
387
00:21:22,764 --> 00:21:24,821
In fact,
She was the best candidate so far.
388
00:21:24,904 --> 00:21:27,596
There are irregularities in
your work history.
389
00:21:27,700 --> 00:21:29,550
Miss.
Quinn cites three previous employers,
390
00:21:29,633 --> 00:21:31,359
everything seems legit.
391
00:21:31,462 --> 00:21:32,946
Registered at Companies House.
392
00:21:33,050 --> 00:21:34,831
But after an investigation
deeper, I discovered
393
00:21:34,914 --> 00:21:36,433
which are in fact false.
394
00:21:36,536 --> 00:21:38,435
In what way?
395
00:21:38,538 --> 00:21:39,560
Companies are registered,
396
00:21:39,643 --> 00:21:41,265
but in fact they don't exist.
397
00:21:41,369 --> 00:21:44,337
And the paperwork provides a trail
398
00:21:44,441 --> 00:21:47,547
which takes us back to
private detective business.
399
00:21:49,100 --> 00:21:51,448
Malone's Investigation Agency.
400
00:21:52,449 --> 00:21:55,762
This was not mentioned in
list of her previous employers.
401
00:23:13,253 --> 00:23:15,324
So,
Are you the vice president of the Guild?
402
00:23:15,808 --> 00:23:17,948
And it has been like this for the last ten years.
403
00:23:19,052 --> 00:23:20,385
I confess that throughout
There was nothing this time
404
00:23:20,468 --> 00:23:21,489
as shocking as the events
405
00:23:21,572 --> 00:23:23,263
these last few hours.
406
00:23:23,885 --> 00:23:26,094
Mr. Fletcher was not
just my superior.
407
00:23:26,888 --> 00:23:28,130
He was my friend.
408
00:23:30,616 --> 00:23:32,362
When was the last time you saw him?
409
00:23:32,445 --> 00:23:34,413
Last night in his office,
410
00:23:34,516 --> 00:23:35,883
he was looking for
reelection as president.
411
00:23:35,966 --> 00:23:37,574
He and I were
discussing his campaign.
412
00:23:37,657 --> 00:23:38,969
His campaign?
413
00:23:39,072 --> 00:23:42,282
Maybe that's a word
too grand for that,
414
00:23:42,386 --> 00:23:43,801
the election is every four years,
415
00:23:43,905 --> 00:23:46,873
but it was always a fact
consummated with Edmund.
416
00:23:46,977 --> 00:23:48,841
Won every time,
417
00:23:48,944 --> 00:23:50,739
no matter who opposed him.
418
00:23:52,672 --> 00:23:54,211
According to your schedule,
you were the last person
419
00:23:54,294 --> 00:23:55,607
to have a meeting with him.
420
00:23:55,848 --> 00:23:57,594
He mentioned a
meeting anyone else?
421
00:23:57,677 --> 00:23:59,196
Not that I remember.
422
00:23:59,299 --> 00:24:01,647
I left his office at eight-thirty.
423
00:24:01,750 --> 00:24:03,787
As far as I know,
he was going home.
424
00:24:06,168 --> 00:24:08,999
A bottle of wine was
broken on the floor of his office.
425
00:24:10,518 --> 00:24:12,451
But from what I understand, he didn't drink.
426
00:24:13,175 --> 00:24:14,763
No, for years.
427
00:24:14,936 --> 00:24:17,732
He caught a tropical disease in Africa,
428
00:24:17,835 --> 00:24:20,631
what...
It caused a slight tremor in his hand.
429
00:24:20,976 --> 00:24:23,462
Alcohol seemed to make the situation worse.
430
00:24:23,565 --> 00:24:25,291
Could it have been for someone else?
431
00:24:25,671 --> 00:24:27,279
A visitor, perhaps?
It's possible.
432
00:24:27,362 --> 00:24:28,846
He was a generous man.
433
00:24:29,985 --> 00:24:31,214
Can you think of
someone who could have wanted
434
00:24:31,297 --> 00:24:32,540
do you harm?
435
00:24:32,988 --> 00:24:35,197
Do you think it was murder?
436
00:24:35,784 --> 00:24:38,580
I believe he was a detective,
Mr. Spilsbury.
437
00:24:38,891 --> 00:24:40,499
You should be aware that
I need to consider this possibility.
438
00:24:40,582 --> 00:24:42,052
Edmund was very well liked.
He grew the Guild
439
00:24:42,135 --> 00:24:43,053
of a handful of members
440
00:24:43,136 --> 00:24:44,227
for more than 2,000 people.
441
00:24:44,310 --> 00:24:45,518
He's a great man.
442
00:24:46,692 --> 00:24:48,970
He was... a great man.
443
00:24:51,455 --> 00:24:54,389
He mentioned that he
was seeking re-election.
444
00:24:54,493 --> 00:24:55,756
I imagine there would be
some kind of vote?
445
00:24:55,839 --> 00:24:57,288
It was supposed to be tomorrow night,
446
00:24:57,392 --> 00:24:58,738
although this may be delayed.
447
00:24:58,842 --> 00:24:59,981
As interim president,
448
00:25:00,084 --> 00:25:02,155
I will have to make that decision.
449
00:25:02,708 --> 00:25:04,202
Are you now interim president?
450
00:25:05,607 --> 00:25:06,801
Are you going to apply yourself?
451
00:25:06,884 --> 00:25:08,507
I will go, but only in memory
452
00:25:08,610 --> 00:25:11,130
of Edmund to continue his legacy.
453
00:25:16,618 --> 00:25:19,207
Don't misunderstand this, Inspector.
454
00:25:19,310 --> 00:25:20,933
He was my oldest friend.
455
00:25:21,278 --> 00:25:22,866
We served together in Africa.
456
00:25:24,523 --> 00:25:25,972
He saved my life.
457
00:25:31,737 --> 00:25:33,255
And the other candidates?
458
00:25:33,428 --> 00:25:35,326
Who else is a candidate?
459
00:25:35,430 --> 00:25:36,500
There is only one,
460
00:25:36,604 --> 00:25:37,487
and in fact, it could be someone
461
00:25:37,570 --> 00:25:38,764
who you might want to talk to.
462
00:25:38,847 --> 00:25:41,712
A man who has been...sincere
463
00:25:41,816 --> 00:25:44,819
in his criticism of the
Edmund's period in office.
464
00:25:47,062 --> 00:25:48,305
Who could it be?
465
00:26:01,145 --> 00:26:03,044
Thomas K. Malone.
466
00:26:03,458 --> 00:26:04,711
I knew he got the facilities
467
00:26:04,753 --> 00:26:05,929
from Mr. Nash for a very affordable price?
468
00:26:06,012 --> 00:26:08,912
He was a tough negotiator and
an astute businessman.
469
00:26:09,015 --> 00:26:10,810
He's an untrustworthy snake
470
00:26:10,914 --> 00:26:13,157
with whom I had the misfortune to deal in France.
471
00:26:14,227 --> 00:26:16,954
What if Cynthia Quinn
is working for him,
472
00:26:17,127 --> 00:26:19,184
my guess is he will try
put her in Scotland Yard
473
00:26:19,267 --> 00:26:21,441
to gain access to
confidential information.
474
00:26:21,890 --> 00:26:24,272
Well, that's terrible, obviously.
475
00:26:24,721 --> 00:26:26,294
Although Mr. Nash
have done something similar
476
00:26:26,377 --> 00:26:28,207
on Bose Street a few years ago.
477
00:26:30,554 --> 00:26:31,957
Why doesn't this surprise me?
478
00:26:33,281 --> 00:26:35,801
Discovered more
anything about Malone?
479
00:26:36,215 --> 00:26:37,768
It turns out, yes.
480
00:26:37,872 --> 00:26:40,150
Your agency appears to be thriving.
481
00:26:40,253 --> 00:26:42,980
And as such,
he decided to run for election
482
00:26:44,326 --> 00:26:46,328
as Guild President.
483
00:27:04,657 --> 00:27:06,383
Come in, Miss. Scarlet.
484
00:27:07,971 --> 00:27:09,697
I hope this is related to
485
00:27:09,800 --> 00:27:11,560
the task I'm paying you for.
486
00:27:13,873 --> 00:27:16,206
An investigation into a
of administrative candidates
487
00:27:16,289 --> 00:27:18,637
revealed links with
a detective agency.
488
00:27:18,809 --> 00:27:20,728
And that's why I don't use it
private investigators.
489
00:27:20,811 --> 00:27:22,882
I know the agency in question.
490
00:27:22,986 --> 00:27:23,973
Well, at least the owner.
491
00:27:24,056 --> 00:27:25,436
He's an American gentleman
492
00:27:25,540 --> 00:27:26,492
and I use that word deliberately,
493
00:27:26,575 --> 00:27:27,597
who goes by the name of
494
00:27:27,680 --> 00:27:29,302
Thomas K. Malone.
495
00:27:29,682 --> 00:27:31,960
Malone.
Which is also...
496
00:27:32,064 --> 00:27:34,273
Election candidate
for Guild President.
497
00:27:34,376 --> 00:27:35,895
Yes I know.
498
00:27:36,171 --> 00:27:37,897
I was going to talk to him.
499
00:27:38,001 --> 00:27:40,072
So it's vital that it goes with you.
500
00:27:41,038 --> 00:27:42,695
I don't think so.
501
00:27:42,799 --> 00:27:44,041
Well...
502
00:27:44,904 --> 00:27:46,354
You are being irrational.
503
00:27:46,457 --> 00:27:48,031
I'm being perfectly reasonable.
504
00:27:48,114 --> 00:27:49,654
There is no reason to accompany me.
505
00:27:49,737 --> 00:27:51,000
I came straight to you with this information,
506
00:27:51,083 --> 00:27:53,120
when could have
went to see him in person.
507
00:27:54,431 --> 00:27:56,212
This is some kind of attempt
to prove yourself to me
508
00:27:56,295 --> 00:27:57,986
hoping for future employment?
509
00:27:58,469 --> 00:28:00,008
I was offended by this suggestion.
510
00:28:04,130 --> 00:28:05,649
I'm just trying to help.
511
00:28:06,098 --> 00:28:08,017
Thomas K.
Malone is a compulsive liar.
512
00:28:08,100 --> 00:28:09,984
I've met liars before.
This comes with the job.
513
00:28:10,067 --> 00:28:11,330
Yes, but I know the man.
514
00:28:11,413 --> 00:28:12,863
I spent time with him.
515
00:28:12,967 --> 00:28:14,161
You will get to the truth
faster if I'm there
516
00:28:14,244 --> 00:28:16,190
to report your
lies immediately.
517
00:28:16,902 --> 00:28:19,249
And I will also add
that I'm offering my...
518
00:28:19,352 --> 00:28:20,871
help for free.
519
00:28:24,081 --> 00:28:26,069
That's a sigh of
irritation or acceptance?
520
00:28:26,152 --> 00:28:27,291
Both.
521
00:28:28,396 --> 00:28:29,431
Very good.
522
00:28:29,604 --> 00:28:30,639
If you follow me,
523
00:28:30,743 --> 00:28:32,006
I must insist on three things.
524
00:28:32,089 --> 00:28:33,263
Accepted.
525
00:28:33,677 --> 00:28:35,506
Can I at least tell you what they are?
526
00:28:35,921 --> 00:28:37,563
Well, you can, but I agree with them.
527
00:28:37,646 --> 00:28:38,806
Don't speak unless I ask.
528
00:28:38,889 --> 00:28:39,945
Don't show any reaction
529
00:28:40,028 --> 00:28:40,822
when the suspect is speaking.
530
00:28:40,926 --> 00:28:41,892
Don't do anything
531
00:28:41,996 --> 00:28:43,580
unless instructed by me.
532
00:28:44,446 --> 00:28:45,758
You have my word.
533
00:28:45,862 --> 00:28:46,828
And I'm very excited
534
00:28:46,932 --> 00:28:48,381
to watch you work.
535
00:28:49,141 --> 00:28:51,359
Don't try to charm me
for your own benefit.
536
00:28:52,903 --> 00:28:54,353
I don't do that.
537
00:28:54,905 --> 00:28:56,148
If you say so.
538
00:29:12,371 --> 00:29:13,406
Mr Malone?
539
00:29:14,753 --> 00:29:16,306
No, he just left.
540
00:29:16,409 --> 00:29:18,101
Serious?
And you are?
541
00:29:18,895 --> 00:29:19,882
Does it depend on who is asking?
542
00:29:19,965 --> 00:29:20,952
Detective Inspector Blake
543
00:29:21,035 --> 00:29:22,208
from Scotland Yard.
544
00:29:22,933 --> 00:29:24,383
It's him.
545
00:29:24,486 --> 00:29:25,833
Thomas K. Malone.
546
00:29:26,316 --> 00:29:28,262
I didn't ask you to speak, Miss.
Scarlet.
547
00:29:28,352 --> 00:29:29,837
Eliza Scarlet.
548
00:29:30,113 --> 00:29:32,736
Well, I'll be damned.
We are old friends.
549
00:29:33,185 --> 00:29:34,482
Friends don't handcuff each other
550
00:29:34,565 --> 00:29:36,257
in dirty pipes in a basement.
551
00:29:37,465 --> 00:29:38,638
Sorry.
552
00:29:38,915 --> 00:29:40,468
Please continue.
553
00:29:40,571 --> 00:29:41,883
Let's talk inside.
554
00:29:44,713 --> 00:29:46,356
How long have you been in London?
555
00:29:46,439 --> 00:29:47,993
About six months.
556
00:29:48,165 --> 00:29:49,601
I worked for an agency
in Boston and then I came here
557
00:29:49,684 --> 00:29:51,168
to set up my own store.
558
00:29:51,341 --> 00:29:54,102
In fact, I believe that these
it was his old premises.
559
00:29:54,206 --> 00:29:56,622
Nash and Sons.
560
00:29:56,725 --> 00:29:57,899
Not that he has children.
561
00:29:58,003 --> 00:29:59,404
That one over there is a cunning old fox.
562
00:29:59,487 --> 00:30:00,577
But he made me one
good deal at this place,
563
00:30:00,660 --> 00:30:01,751
So I can't complain.
564
00:30:01,834 --> 00:30:02,628
And when he joined the Guild
565
00:30:02,731 --> 00:30:04,147
of Private Detectives?
566
00:30:04,319 --> 00:30:06,701
A few weeks after installation,
I think.
567
00:30:06,943 --> 00:30:08,137
I thought it could be
good for business,
568
00:30:08,220 --> 00:30:09,172
but it's just been a waste of time
569
00:30:09,255 --> 00:30:10,291
and money.
570
00:30:10,705 --> 00:30:12,569
100 pounds a year, and for what?
571
00:30:13,673 --> 00:30:14,882
Do you want a drink?
572
00:30:15,365 --> 00:30:17,367
I'll take one.
I finished the work.
573
00:30:17,470 --> 00:30:19,024
At least I thought I did.
574
00:30:19,852 --> 00:30:20,701
Can I charge for this?
575
00:30:20,784 --> 00:30:22,027
You can try.
576
00:30:27,929 --> 00:30:29,551
So let me guess.
577
00:30:29,966 --> 00:30:31,747
You are here to
ask about Fletcher, right?
578
00:30:31,830 --> 00:30:33,072
He dies suddenly.
579
00:30:33,176 --> 00:30:34,680
I'm running against him in the election.
580
00:30:34,763 --> 00:30:35,647
And he wants to know if I killed him.
581
00:30:35,730 --> 00:30:37,456
Among other things.
582
00:30:37,766 --> 00:30:39,872
If I killed him, I would deny it.
583
00:30:40,045 --> 00:30:41,943
And if I didn't do it, which I didn't,
584
00:30:42,047 --> 00:30:43,393
then I would also deny it.
585
00:30:47,155 --> 00:30:48,985
I started to like wine in France.
586
00:30:49,088 --> 00:30:50,835
At least something
good came from being there.
587
00:30:50,918 --> 00:30:52,436
It got me very good.
588
00:30:52,540 --> 00:30:53,492
I spent two weeks in a cell
589
00:30:53,575 --> 00:30:54,956
before they released me.
590
00:30:55,577 --> 00:30:57,082
If you are looking for a
apology, Mr. Malone,
591
00:30:57,165 --> 00:30:58,885
So there is a very long wait.
592
00:30:59,788 --> 00:31:01,224
What were your
movements last night?
593
00:31:01,307 --> 00:31:03,675
I was here working
in my election speech.
594
00:31:03,758 --> 00:31:05,021
And before you ask, yes,
595
00:31:05,104 --> 00:31:06,367
There are people who can vouch for me,
596
00:31:06,450 --> 00:31:08,142
my entire team.
597
00:31:08,314 --> 00:31:11,027
But for the record,
didn't like Edmund Fletcher.
598
00:31:11,110 --> 00:31:13,388
A failure coming
filling their own pockets.
599
00:31:13,492 --> 00:31:14,824
The Guild needs someone in charge,
600
00:31:14,907 --> 00:31:16,136
who knows what he's doing.
601
00:31:16,219 --> 00:31:19,325
Someone with integrity... and vision.
602
00:31:19,429 --> 00:31:21,293
And this is you?
603
00:31:21,603 --> 00:31:22,901
I have talked to others
members and they are ready
604
00:31:22,984 --> 00:31:24,158
for someone new.
605
00:31:24,537 --> 00:31:26,438
And by the way,
If I were in charge,
606
00:31:26,608 --> 00:31:27,837
would have convinced your
friend here to rethink
607
00:31:27,920 --> 00:31:29,730
its ban on private detectives.
608
00:31:31,096 --> 00:31:32,097
Thinking about it,
609
00:31:32,200 --> 00:31:34,016
how is she
working with you?
610
00:31:34,099 --> 00:31:35,479
I'm not working with him.
611
00:31:35,928 --> 00:31:37,240
I'm working for him.
612
00:31:38,379 --> 00:31:39,794
Mr Malone,
613
00:31:39,898 --> 00:31:41,761
as a man of vision and integrity,
614
00:31:41,969 --> 00:31:43,936
Let me ask you about Cynthia Quinn.
615
00:31:44,316 --> 00:31:45,627
Is she your employee?
616
00:31:45,731 --> 00:31:47,353
Cynthia. Yes.
So what?
617
00:31:47,526 --> 00:31:48,734
Well, Cynthia Quinn...
618
00:31:48,837 --> 00:31:50,204
Cynthia Quinn applied for a position
619
00:31:50,287 --> 00:31:52,586
in the new office
administrative department at Scotland Yard.
620
00:31:52,669 --> 00:31:53,670
It's a free country.
621
00:31:53,773 --> 00:31:55,051
It has nothing to do with me.
622
00:31:58,675 --> 00:31:59,731
This is a waste of time.
623
00:31:59,814 --> 00:32:01,195
Mine and yours.
624
00:32:01,298 --> 00:32:02,182
Do you know who you should be talking to?
625
00:32:02,265 --> 00:32:03,542
about Fletcher's death?
626
00:32:03,645 --> 00:32:05,440
Archibald Spilsbury.
627
00:32:05,993 --> 00:32:07,497
Seventeen years he was vice president
628
00:32:07,580 --> 00:32:08,961
taking fletcher's shit,
629
00:32:09,065 --> 00:32:10,086
dealing with the mess he created,
630
00:32:10,169 --> 00:32:11,550
hoping he would resign.
631
00:32:12,171 --> 00:32:13,379
If you ask me...
632
00:32:14,104 --> 00:32:15,692
he got tired of waiting.
633
00:32:25,391 --> 00:32:27,669
Notice the wine he was drinking,
634
00:32:27,773 --> 00:32:29,361
Chateau Lemaître.
635
00:32:29,464 --> 00:32:30,969
The same wine that was found in...
At the crime scene.
636
00:32:31,052 --> 00:32:32,246
Yes. I got it.
It can't be just...
637
00:32:32,329 --> 00:32:34,090
a coincidence.
I agree.
638
00:32:34,193 --> 00:32:36,181
But he might be right
about Archibald Spilsbury.
639
00:32:36,264 --> 00:32:38,094
I imagine it will...
I will.
640
00:32:39,164 --> 00:32:40,544
Where are we going now?
641
00:32:40,648 --> 00:32:42,546
I have more leads to follow.
642
00:32:42,650 --> 00:32:44,134
You can go wherever you want.
643
00:32:44,238 --> 00:32:45,673
I'll meet you later at Scotland Yard,
644
00:32:45,756 --> 00:32:47,675
and we can, um,
review the next steps.
645
00:32:47,758 --> 00:32:49,194
There is no "us", Miss. Scarlet.
646
00:32:49,277 --> 00:32:50,997
I believe I was very clear about this.
647
00:32:53,833 --> 00:32:55,732
Is it pride?
And that?
648
00:32:55,835 --> 00:32:59,184
You can't... you can't risk it
let someone else solve your case.
649
00:32:59,494 --> 00:33:01,945
If so, that's kind of petty.
650
00:33:02,359 --> 00:33:03,795
If I were petty, I would mention that
651
00:33:03,878 --> 00:33:05,072
blatantly ignored everything
652
00:33:05,155 --> 00:33:06,073
that I asked you during
653
00:33:06,156 --> 00:33:07,502
our meeting with Malone.
654
00:33:08,089 --> 00:33:09,905
And for your information,
I won't go back to Scotland Yard.
655
00:33:09,988 --> 00:33:11,009
I have one more appointment,
656
00:33:11,092 --> 00:33:12,438
then I will go home.
657
00:33:12,542 --> 00:33:13,543
Home?
658
00:33:15,096 --> 00:33:17,188
I have a life outside of work,
Miss. Scarlet,
659
00:33:17,271 --> 00:33:18,855
as I'm sure you do too.
660
00:33:33,321 --> 00:33:36,048
What a wonderful night!
661
00:33:36,393 --> 00:33:39,051
What else could be
ask for than good company,
662
00:33:39,155 --> 00:33:40,466
a nice glass of wine,
663
00:33:40,570 --> 00:33:42,779
and a very good game
exhausting gin rummy.
664
00:33:43,228 --> 00:33:45,851
Yes.
It's exactly what the doctor ordered.
665
00:33:46,300 --> 00:33:48,095
I'm not exaggerating when I say
666
00:33:48,198 --> 00:33:50,221
to be responsible for
three extra morgues is...
667
00:33:50,304 --> 00:33:52,823
Three times the work.
Yes, Barnabas, you said it.
668
00:33:55,102 --> 00:33:57,794
Is... is everything okay, my dear?
669
00:33:58,277 --> 00:34:00,797
Did I do something to upset you or...?
670
00:34:02,385 --> 00:34:04,456
It was a long day.
Just that.
671
00:34:06,182 --> 00:34:07,700
For all of us.
672
00:34:08,529 --> 00:34:11,463
We won't talk about work anymore,
right, Miss. Scarlet?
673
00:34:16,330 --> 00:34:19,781
Although... that's a shame.
674
00:34:19,885 --> 00:34:21,887
By a strange quirk of fate...
675
00:34:22,232 --> 00:34:24,269
Your name was mentioned today, Ms.
Scarlet.
676
00:34:24,372 --> 00:34:27,927
And...
I made a very funny observation.
677
00:34:28,169 --> 00:34:29,791
Yes.
678
00:34:30,240 --> 00:34:31,862
When Inspector Blake appeared,
679
00:34:31,966 --> 00:34:34,865
to get the results of the
autopsy of a Mr. Fletcher,
680
00:34:35,314 --> 00:34:37,627
the president of the Guild
of Private Detectives,
681
00:34:38,214 --> 00:34:39,615
the same gentleman who sent the
682
00:34:39,698 --> 00:34:41,941
bottle of champagne
for us in the restaurant.
683
00:34:42,563 --> 00:34:45,428
The same gentleman in
who you threw the wine.
684
00:34:45,911 --> 00:34:47,947
So I said to the inspector:
685
00:34:48,362 --> 00:34:50,942
I'm surprised that Miss.
Scarlet is not a suspect.
686
00:34:56,715 --> 00:34:58,565
That was the funny observation,
understand?
687
00:34:58,648 --> 00:34:59,821
Yes.
688
00:35:00,132 --> 00:35:01,754
I understood this.
689
00:35:02,169 --> 00:35:03,825
The autopsy revealed
690
00:35:03,929 --> 00:35:05,517
what poison was in his body?
691
00:35:06,000 --> 00:35:07,105
And it revealed.
692
00:35:07,208 --> 00:35:08,792
This is confidential information.
693
00:35:09,590 --> 00:35:11,971
I'm working
with the inspector on the case.
694
00:35:12,282 --> 00:35:14,201
There were several candidates
likely for poisons.
695
00:35:14,284 --> 00:35:16,217
I...
I just want you to confirm which one.
696
00:35:16,321 --> 00:35:17,756
Miss Scarlet, I can't reveal...
697
00:35:17,839 --> 00:35:19,220
Was it strychnine?
698
00:35:19,324 --> 00:35:20,946
No.
Hydrogen cyanide?
699
00:35:21,049 --> 00:35:21,950
No.
And you can't...
700
00:35:22,033 --> 00:35:22,934
My God, you two.
701
00:35:23,017 --> 00:35:24,873
Just tell her and
get it over with already.
702
00:35:26,848 --> 00:35:28,126
Physostigma venomsum,
703
00:35:28,229 --> 00:35:29,803
also known as Calabar Bean.
704
00:35:29,886 --> 00:35:31,218
But this... I won't say anything more.
705
00:35:31,301 --> 00:35:32,371
And the hole mark
706
00:35:32,475 --> 00:35:33,855
on the back of Fletcher's hand,
707
00:35:33,959 --> 00:35:35,236
It was from a syringe, wasn't it?
708
00:35:37,756 --> 00:35:38,826
He was.
709
00:35:39,689 --> 00:35:40,522
Excellent.
710
00:35:43,796 --> 00:35:47,006
It's your turn, my dear.
711
00:35:47,110 --> 00:35:48,920
Yes, I know it's my turn, Barnabas.
712
00:36:07,475 --> 00:36:08,787
Good morning, Clarence.
713
00:36:08,890 --> 00:36:10,685
Good morning.
714
00:36:10,927 --> 00:36:13,067
I have some news.
715
00:36:13,585 --> 00:36:15,573
I discovered that the poison
used to kill Mr. Fletcher
716
00:36:15,656 --> 00:36:17,899
It is rare and ingenious.
717
00:36:18,210 --> 00:36:19,611
When placed in food or drinks,
718
00:36:19,694 --> 00:36:21,386
It is slow-acting, takes hours,
719
00:36:21,489 --> 00:36:23,146
if not days to take effect.
720
00:36:23,560 --> 00:36:25,390
Death occurs due to cardiac arrest,
721
00:36:25,493 --> 00:36:27,516
making it impossible
distinguish it from natural causes.
722
00:36:27,599 --> 00:36:28,910
However...
723
00:36:29,152 --> 00:36:30,864
Mr. Fletcher was
killed by an injection,
724
00:36:30,947 --> 00:36:32,667
directly into your bloodstream.
725
00:36:32,983 --> 00:36:35,317
He would have died in seconds.
So, the question is...
726
00:36:35,400 --> 00:36:36,904
Why are we talking about a case
727
00:36:36,987 --> 00:36:39,114
that Scotland Yard is
working and we are not?
728
00:36:39,956 --> 00:36:41,475
The question is,
729
00:36:41,578 --> 00:36:43,428
why strive
to get something rare,
730
00:36:43,511 --> 00:36:45,412
slow-acting poison
just to inject it
731
00:36:45,513 --> 00:36:47,066
directly into the victim's body?
732
00:36:47,170 --> 00:36:48,606
Leave a visible puncture mark
733
00:36:48,689 --> 00:36:50,125
and high levels of poison,
making murder
734
00:36:50,208 --> 00:36:51,864
much easier to detect.
735
00:36:51,968 --> 00:36:54,350
I've been doing some research...
and discovered that
736
00:36:54,453 --> 00:36:56,628
this known poison
like Calabar Bean,
737
00:36:56,731 --> 00:36:58,541
grows in the same area of West Africa
738
00:36:58,630 --> 00:37:00,114
where Fletcher and Spilsbury
739
00:37:00,218 --> 00:37:02,254
served in the Army.
740
00:37:02,358 --> 00:37:03,635
It's intriguing, isn't it?
741
00:37:03,738 --> 00:37:04,601
It's intriguing,
742
00:37:04,705 --> 00:37:05,657
but that doesn't change the fact
743
00:37:05,740 --> 00:37:06,589
that this is not a case
744
00:37:06,672 --> 00:37:07,832
that we were hired to work.
745
00:37:07,915 --> 00:37:08,709
Clarence, this is our chance
746
00:37:08,812 --> 00:37:09,903
to prove ourselves.
747
00:37:09,986 --> 00:37:10,780
Eliza, it's not that I don't
748
00:37:10,883 --> 00:37:11,884
I admire your tenacity,
749
00:37:11,988 --> 00:37:13,334
but there is an equal chance
750
00:37:13,438 --> 00:37:14,977
that leading our
own investigation
751
00:37:15,060 --> 00:37:16,786
we will antagonize Inspector Blake.
752
00:37:16,889 --> 00:37:18,394
But it's a bet worth taking,
isn't that right?
753
00:37:18,477 --> 00:37:21,584
Well, I...
Great, then we're in agreement.
754
00:37:21,687 --> 00:37:24,725
I intend to investigate
further Mr. Spilsbury.
755
00:37:25,208 --> 00:37:26,954
No syringes were
found at the crime scene.
756
00:37:27,037 --> 00:37:29,039
So... if he's involved,
757
00:37:29,143 --> 00:37:31,361
maybe he has
stored somewhere.
758
00:37:31,456 --> 00:37:33,561
Meanwhile,
I have a task for you.
759
00:37:33,665 --> 00:37:34,562
Heavens.
760
00:37:34,735 --> 00:37:36,067
This poison is extremely rare
761
00:37:36,150 --> 00:37:37,172
and hard to find,
762
00:37:37,255 --> 00:37:38,242
then you should talk to someone
763
00:37:38,325 --> 00:37:39,450
that deals with the most exotic
764
00:37:39,533 --> 00:37:40,741
of the black market.
765
00:37:42,225 --> 00:37:44,538
Is exotic a euphemism for dangerous?
766
00:37:44,641 --> 00:37:47,023
He is far from dangerous.
767
00:37:59,415 --> 00:38:01,140
Mr Gibson?
768
00:38:01,244 --> 00:38:02,077
Who wants to know?
769
00:38:02,176 --> 00:38:03,059
I'm sorry to bother you,
770
00:38:03,142 --> 00:38:03,936
but I'm here for a reason
771
00:38:04,040 --> 00:38:04,991
of urgent business.
772
00:38:05,766 --> 00:38:07,768
I only deal with people I know,
773
00:38:07,871 --> 00:38:09,183
and I don't know you.
774
00:38:09,287 --> 00:38:11,668
I... I'm an associate of Ms.
Scarlet,
775
00:38:12,082 --> 00:38:14,571
which I believe already
met on several occasions.
776
00:38:14,878 --> 00:38:15,983
I've never heard of her.
777
00:38:16,777 --> 00:38:18,123
Right.
778
00:38:18,226 --> 00:38:21,195
We are looking
a list of suppliers
779
00:38:21,299 --> 00:38:22,990
of a specific poison.
780
00:38:24,094 --> 00:38:26,373
Physostigma venomsum.
781
00:38:26,476 --> 00:38:28,823
It is also known as Calabar Bean.
782
00:38:29,272 --> 00:38:30,929
I deal in legitimate works of art,
783
00:38:31,032 --> 00:38:32,758
sold with complete caution,
784
00:38:32,862 --> 00:38:34,242
not with poisons.
785
00:38:34,484 --> 00:38:35,885
Miss Scarlet informed me that
786
00:38:35,968 --> 00:38:37,936
diversified your business
787
00:38:38,039 --> 00:38:39,351
and now provides a more
788
00:38:39,455 --> 00:38:42,492
eclectic range of products?
789
00:38:42,596 --> 00:38:44,977
She also told me that
he is a cautious man,
790
00:38:45,081 --> 00:38:47,704
and that I need to make it worth it...
791
00:38:48,947 --> 00:38:50,535
financially speaking.
792
00:38:53,123 --> 00:38:56,989
Yes, maybe I can
provide some information,
793
00:38:57,093 --> 00:38:58,612
if the price is right.
794
00:38:59,475 --> 00:39:01,304
My secretary takes care of payments.
795
00:39:01,408 --> 00:39:02,788
Your secretary?
796
00:39:05,964 --> 00:39:07,552
A recent appointment
797
00:39:07,655 --> 00:39:08,608
to ensure proper functioning
798
00:39:08,691 --> 00:39:10,831
of my new diversification.
799
00:39:13,489 --> 00:39:18,183
So who can provide
this particular poison?
800
00:39:18,286 --> 00:39:19,598
I've never heard of that.
801
00:39:21,117 --> 00:39:23,706
No, but I just
pay you for the information.
802
00:39:23,809 --> 00:39:25,604
Yes, and the information is...
803
00:39:25,708 --> 00:39:26,950
I've never heard of that.
804
00:39:28,607 --> 00:39:30,264
Then I will have my money back.
805
00:39:30,437 --> 00:39:32,059
There are no refunds.
But I...
806
00:39:32,162 --> 00:39:33,992
Discuss this with my secretary...
807
00:39:34,475 --> 00:39:36,477
on your way out.
808
00:40:26,044 --> 00:40:27,148
Mr Spilsbury?
809
00:40:38,090 --> 00:40:40,852
I have a revolver and
I'm not afraid to use it.
810
00:40:41,162 --> 00:40:42,509
That is true?
811
00:40:49,757 --> 00:40:51,020
No.
What are you doing here,
812
00:40:51,103 --> 00:40:52,781
Miss Scarlet?
Well, same thing
813
00:40:52,864 --> 00:40:54,265
than you, I imagine.
It's nothing like that.
814
00:40:54,348 --> 00:40:55,660
Invaded illegally.
815
00:40:55,763 --> 00:40:57,483
While I have a search warrant.
816
00:40:58,421 --> 00:40:59,905
Can you see the difference?
817
00:41:00,768 --> 00:41:02,411
Well, if you stopped
be so stubborn and allow me
818
00:41:02,494 --> 00:41:03,688
help you, I wouldn't have to do that.
819
00:41:03,771 --> 00:41:05,670
Help!
Please!
820
00:41:05,773 --> 00:41:07,554
It's coming from below.
Help, down here!
821
00:41:07,637 --> 00:41:08,914
Wait here.
822
00:41:13,505 --> 00:41:15,818
Help, please!
823
00:41:17,820 --> 00:41:19,062
Malone.
824
00:41:31,489 --> 00:41:32,614
It's not the first time I've met you
825
00:41:32,697 --> 00:41:34,319
Bound and gagged, Malone.
826
00:41:35,044 --> 00:41:37,204
Maybe I should rethink
how you conduct your business.
827
00:41:37,287 --> 00:41:38,192
It wasn't my fault.
828
00:41:38,288 --> 00:41:39,531
It was Spilsbury.
829
00:41:39,842 --> 00:41:41,519
He invited me to discuss the election.
830
00:41:41,602 --> 00:41:43,348
He said he was
thinking about giving up.
831
00:41:43,431 --> 00:41:44,971
We sat down and had a drink.
832
00:41:45,054 --> 00:41:46,282
And before I knew it,
he hit me in the head
833
00:41:46,365 --> 00:41:47,228
and knocked me out.
834
00:41:47,919 --> 00:41:49,437
Then I woke up down here.
835
00:41:50,197 --> 00:41:52,081
I think you want me to stay out
of the way to tonight's vote.
836
00:41:52,164 --> 00:41:54,235
Then you wouldn't show up,
837
00:41:54,339 --> 00:41:56,928
and he would be elected
president for default.
838
00:41:59,793 --> 00:42:01,104
The man is a viper.
839
00:42:03,106 --> 00:42:04,349
Where is this vote?
840
00:42:19,571 --> 00:42:20,641
Thanks.
841
00:42:20,883 --> 00:42:23,057
Thanks everyone.
842
00:42:24,162 --> 00:42:25,784
I hope to prove to be
843
00:42:25,888 --> 00:42:28,304
worthy of being its new president.
844
00:42:28,476 --> 00:42:30,202
And I do this in memory
845
00:42:30,306 --> 00:42:32,998
from my dear friend and colleague,
846
00:42:33,792 --> 00:42:35,311
Edmund Fletcher.
847
00:42:36,277 --> 00:42:37,658
May he rest in peace.
848
00:42:55,124 --> 00:42:57,022
Alright, let's go.
849
00:42:57,126 --> 00:42:59,818
Good morning, gentlemen.
What do you want?
850
00:42:59,922 --> 00:43:00,840
These are yours
commercial premises,
851
00:43:00,923 --> 00:43:02,289
I believe he is very intelligent.
852
00:43:02,372 --> 00:43:03,753
A normal exterior
853
00:43:03,857 --> 00:43:05,085
hiding an Aladdin's cave
854
00:43:05,168 --> 00:43:06,722
of contraband inside.
855
00:43:07,515 --> 00:43:09,172
I said: what do you want?
856
00:43:09,276 --> 00:43:10,919
I've been asking some questions
about you, Mr. Gibson.
857
00:43:11,002 --> 00:43:13,265
I just want to confirm that the
What I discovered is correct.
858
00:43:13,349 --> 00:43:14,626
And what exactly is that?
859
00:43:14,730 --> 00:43:16,269
You're known for the black marketers
860
00:43:16,352 --> 00:43:18,147
from London as Archibald Gibson.
861
00:43:18,250 --> 00:43:19,928
But you are, in fact,
Stanley Grimsdyke
862
00:43:20,011 --> 00:43:21,875
from the city of Northampton.
So what?
863
00:43:21,978 --> 00:43:24,015
The city where your wife lives,
864
00:43:24,118 --> 00:43:26,155
a wife who believes
that you are dead.
865
00:43:31,609 --> 00:43:33,541
It was a...
866
00:43:33,645 --> 00:43:35,474
boat accident, right?
867
00:43:35,647 --> 00:43:36,890
Have you spoken to Gladys?
868
00:43:36,993 --> 00:43:38,857
Not yet, but that is my intention.
869
00:43:38,961 --> 00:43:40,811
She is not a woman
hard to find.
870
00:43:40,894 --> 00:43:43,137
The only female butcher
871
00:43:43,241 --> 00:43:44,829
in southern England.
872
00:43:44,932 --> 00:43:47,555
It can break one
whole cow carcass alone,
873
00:43:47,659 --> 00:43:49,212
I believe.
874
00:43:49,316 --> 00:43:52,284
So maybe I can break my head,
875
00:43:52,388 --> 00:43:54,942
and provide me with this list
of potential suppliers
876
00:43:55,046 --> 00:43:57,565
of the poison I paid yesterday,
877
00:43:57,669 --> 00:43:59,464
or else Mrs. Gibson will find out
878
00:43:59,567 --> 00:44:01,466
that she is no longer a widow.
879
00:44:01,673 --> 00:44:03,592
I'm sure that
she will be happy to reunite
880
00:44:03,675 --> 00:44:05,332
with her beloved husband.
881
00:44:08,369 --> 00:44:09,439
Do you have a pen?
882
00:44:25,663 --> 00:44:26,871
Good morning...
883
00:44:28,976 --> 00:44:31,427
Is Inspector Blake here?
884
00:44:33,394 --> 00:44:34,879
Miss Scarlet.
885
00:44:35,362 --> 00:44:37,640
What an unexpected pleasure.
886
00:44:37,744 --> 00:44:39,366
Good morning, Inspector Blake.
887
00:44:41,644 --> 00:44:42,921
Would you like to join?
888
00:44:43,542 --> 00:44:46,062
Yes.
889
00:44:46,649 --> 00:44:47,823
Thank you.
890
00:44:52,068 --> 00:44:53,573
How many times have I told you, girl,
891
00:44:53,656 --> 00:44:55,647
who does not have permission
to answer the door?
892
00:44:56,107 --> 00:44:58,005
120, daddy.
893
00:45:00,905 --> 00:45:03,479
Mrs Bambury is waiting
to prepare your breakfast.
894
00:45:03,562 --> 00:45:04,895
Be a good girl, and I promise
895
00:45:04,978 --> 00:45:07,377
I will read more about this
for you at bedtime.
896
00:45:12,261 --> 00:45:15,954
I apologize for disturbing you at home,
Inspector Blake,
897
00:45:16,058 --> 00:45:17,321
but I have some information
to share with you
898
00:45:17,404 --> 00:45:18,681
that can't wait.
899
00:45:18,785 --> 00:45:20,117
I went to their office and they...
900
00:45:20,200 --> 00:45:22,237
Good,
they told me it was late.
901
00:45:22,961 --> 00:45:24,963
I didn't know he had children.
902
00:45:25,170 --> 00:45:26,378
Just one.
903
00:45:26,758 --> 00:45:27,711
What is your daughter's name?
904
00:45:27,794 --> 00:45:30,175
Sofia.
How old is she?
905
00:45:30,279 --> 00:45:32,336
What information is this
Can't wait, Miss. Scarlet?
906
00:45:32,419 --> 00:45:34,732
My assistant located a man
907
00:45:34,835 --> 00:45:36,734
which sells rare poisons,
908
00:45:36,837 --> 00:45:38,805
including Calabar Bean extract.
909
00:45:38,908 --> 00:45:40,724
And yes, they know this
It's not my murder case.
910
00:45:40,807 --> 00:45:42,601
And yes, he told me many times
911
00:45:42,705 --> 00:45:45,211
who doesn't need my help,
But I wanted to show you that...
912
00:45:45,294 --> 00:45:46,764
Well, when I'm involved in something,
913
00:45:46,847 --> 00:45:48,145
I'm committed to seeing this
914
00:45:48,228 --> 00:45:49,470
until the end.
915
00:45:49,643 --> 00:45:51,127
For better or worse.
916
00:46:00,896 --> 00:46:02,297
You are relentless, Miss. Scarlet,
917
00:46:02,380 --> 00:46:03,415
I admit that.
918
00:46:03,519 --> 00:46:04,609
Spilsbury is not the killer.
919
00:46:04,692 --> 00:46:05,852
I'm inclined to agree.
920
00:46:05,935 --> 00:46:07,302
He admitted to assaulting Malone.
921
00:46:07,385 --> 00:46:08,475
But there is no evidence of anything else.
922
00:46:08,558 --> 00:46:09,442
I know who bought the poison
923
00:46:09,525 --> 00:46:10,491
who killed Fletcher.
924
00:46:12,528 --> 00:46:13,964
So I'm going to do double the
that we are working on,
925
00:46:14,047 --> 00:46:14,979
if everything is ok?
926
00:46:15,082 --> 00:46:16,532
Of course.
Yes?
927
00:46:16,635 --> 00:46:18,796
Do you manage a
top notch establishment here.
928
00:46:18,879 --> 00:46:19,984
All good?
929
00:46:20,087 --> 00:46:21,640
Get started as soon as possible.
930
00:46:21,951 --> 00:46:23,642
And now?
931
00:46:23,850 --> 00:46:25,182
I...
I've already given my statement, that's enough...
932
00:46:25,265 --> 00:46:27,060
Cynthia Quinn, I'm arresting you
933
00:46:27,163 --> 00:46:28,855
for the murder of Edmund Fletcher.
934
00:46:47,632 --> 00:46:48,895
My men searched their quarters,
935
00:46:48,978 --> 00:46:50,877
and found a wrapped syringe
936
00:46:50,980 --> 00:46:52,671
and discarded under your bed.
937
00:46:53,327 --> 00:46:54,639
Contained poison residue
938
00:46:54,742 --> 00:46:56,572
used to murder Edmund Fletcher.
939
00:46:56,779 --> 00:46:58,746
I swear I didn't kill him.
940
00:46:58,919 --> 00:47:00,783
I've known him since I was a child.
941
00:47:00,887 --> 00:47:02,336
He served with my father.
942
00:47:02,440 --> 00:47:03,613
And when my father died,
943
00:47:03,717 --> 00:47:04,842
Mr. Fletcher helped my mother
944
00:47:04,925 --> 00:47:05,926
as he could.
945
00:47:06,030 --> 00:47:07,258
I would never have hurt him.
946
00:47:07,341 --> 00:47:08,970
So why did you buy the poison?
947
00:47:11,276 --> 00:47:13,451
I worked for Mr. Fletcher.
948
00:47:13,727 --> 00:47:15,936
I did... things for him.
949
00:47:16,040 --> 00:47:17,110
Following someone here,
950
00:47:17,213 --> 00:47:19,181
reporting about someone else there.
951
00:47:19,491 --> 00:47:21,666
Then one day he told me
952
00:47:21,769 --> 00:47:23,599
to get a job with Malone.
953
00:47:24,013 --> 00:47:25,566
He hated that man.
954
00:47:25,739 --> 00:47:28,224
He called him an American rookie.
955
00:47:28,949 --> 00:47:30,571
He was afraid that Malone
956
00:47:30,675 --> 00:47:32,263
was going to overthrow him from the throne.
957
00:47:32,435 --> 00:47:34,334
He earned well as president,
958
00:47:34,437 --> 00:47:37,268
mainly because of
all kickbacks and bribes.
959
00:47:37,371 --> 00:47:38,980
So he wanted
you report on Malone
960
00:47:39,063 --> 00:47:40,478
and give you some dirt?
961
00:47:40,927 --> 00:47:42,825
Malone may be a weasel,
962
00:47:42,929 --> 00:47:43,930
but there was very little
963
00:47:44,033 --> 00:47:45,586
to report.
964
00:47:47,105 --> 00:47:48,831
Besides the fact that he drinks
965
00:47:48,935 --> 00:47:50,660
a bottle of wine a day.
966
00:47:54,664 --> 00:47:56,480
The bottle of wine
found near the body
967
00:47:56,563 --> 00:47:57,978
Was it Malone's?
968
00:47:59,807 --> 00:48:02,431
So it was the poison?
969
00:48:02,534 --> 00:48:05,330
I took the bottle from the cupboard
of Malone drinks,
970
00:48:05,434 --> 00:48:08,920
and caught the poison,
as ordered by Mr. Fletcher.
971
00:48:09,265 --> 00:48:13,235
He intended to inject the
poison through the cork.
972
00:48:13,476 --> 00:48:14,719
It would be slow acting,
973
00:48:14,822 --> 00:48:16,894
and Malone would be dead in a few days,
974
00:48:16,997 --> 00:48:19,379
for what would appear to be natural causes.
975
00:48:22,209 --> 00:48:23,797
So what happened?
976
00:48:24,349 --> 00:48:27,076
Mr. Fletcher had a tremor in his hand,
977
00:48:27,939 --> 00:48:30,631
and when he went to inject it into the cork,
978
00:48:31,011 --> 00:48:32,875
his hand slipped.
979
00:48:33,048 --> 00:48:35,602
And the idiot injected himself.
980
00:48:36,534 --> 00:48:37,949
It was horrible.
981
00:48:39,192 --> 00:48:40,662
And you were there and picked up the syringe?
982
00:48:40,745 --> 00:48:43,196
I didn't want that
was traced back to me.
983
00:48:49,271 --> 00:48:51,624
Why apply for one
job at Scotland Yard?
984
00:48:52,688 --> 00:48:54,172
That was Malone.
985
00:48:54,828 --> 00:48:56,416
He wanted to pay me
986
00:48:56,519 --> 00:48:59,177
to report any
confidential cases.
987
00:49:00,316 --> 00:49:02,525
It's a good way to
get new business.
988
00:49:04,596 --> 00:49:06,587
You are a diligent woman, Miss.
Quinn.
989
00:49:07,945 --> 00:49:09,463
When you grow up like me,
990
00:49:10,050 --> 00:49:11,906
will do anything to survive.
991
00:49:23,063 --> 00:49:25,462
Her story was compelling,
to say the least.
992
00:49:26,239 --> 00:49:28,344
Do you believe her?
993
00:49:28,448 --> 00:49:30,346
She had no motive for murder,
994
00:49:30,450 --> 00:49:32,348
and Fletcher paid him well.
995
00:49:33,246 --> 00:49:35,558
And for a woman like Cynthia Quinn,
996
00:49:36,111 --> 00:49:37,605
It was all about money.
997
00:49:41,944 --> 00:49:43,221
You did well.
998
00:49:45,534 --> 00:49:46,500
But?
999
00:49:47,432 --> 00:49:49,089
But nothing.
1000
00:49:49,193 --> 00:49:50,677
That was the entire sentence.
1001
00:49:53,818 --> 00:49:54,784
Well thanks.
1002
00:49:55,889 --> 00:49:57,442
I have something for you.
1003
00:49:58,409 --> 00:50:00,135
Actually, for your daughter.
1004
00:50:05,968 --> 00:50:07,473
Alice's Adventures
in Wonderland.
1005
00:50:07,556 --> 00:50:09,834
It was my favorite romance
when I was a girl.
1006
00:50:10,421 --> 00:50:11,926
There are no pirates like Treasure Island,
1007
00:50:12,009 --> 00:50:14,390
But it's a great adventure.
1008
00:50:15,909 --> 00:50:17,048
Thanks.
1009
00:50:20,810 --> 00:50:22,005
She has, in fact, fought
1010
00:50:22,088 --> 00:50:23,537
with your new environment,
1011
00:50:23,641 --> 00:50:25,298
new house, new school.
1012
00:50:26,920 --> 00:50:28,459
Her babysitter hit her this morning.
1013
00:50:31,994 --> 00:50:35,308
We talked, and now she's
with our neighbor, Mrs. Bambury.
1014
00:50:40,727 --> 00:50:42,039
May I ask...
1015
00:50:43,074 --> 00:50:44,524
And... what about her mother?
1016
00:50:51,220 --> 00:50:54,775
My... wife passed away a few years ago.
1017
00:50:58,296 --> 00:50:59,608
I am really sorry.
1018
00:51:01,161 --> 00:51:03,577
I know what it's like to lose a mother at such a young age.
1019
00:51:12,655 --> 00:51:15,461
The administrative office is
ready to welcome you, sir.
1020
00:51:21,388 --> 00:51:23,787
I hope you have
selected the best candidates?
1021
00:51:24,081 --> 00:51:25,358
For sure.
1022
00:51:27,774 --> 00:51:28,947
On behalf of Scotland Yard,
1023
00:51:29,051 --> 00:51:30,314
I would like to give
welcome to all of you
1024
00:51:30,397 --> 00:51:32,298
to our new
administrative office.
1025
00:51:32,641 --> 00:51:35,595
I hope you find this one
fair and decent place to work.
1026
00:51:35,678 --> 00:51:38,440
Everything we ask
in return is hard work,
1027
00:51:38,543 --> 00:51:40,890
discretion and trust.
1028
00:51:41,995 --> 00:51:43,760
I look forward to working with you.
1029
00:51:45,723 --> 00:51:47,034
So once again,
1030
00:51:47,138 --> 00:51:49,382
a warm welcome to Scotland Yard.
1031
00:51:50,928 --> 00:51:52,752
