2
00:01:00,896 --> 00:01:03,364
Ooh! This should be good.

3
00:01:03,398 --> 00:01:05,398
Better be.

4
00:01:08,402 --> 00:01:11,404
- What the devil is this?
- Some sort of listening device?

5
00:01:15,409 --> 00:01:17,377
We all have them.

6
00:01:17,411 --> 00:01:21,380
Mr. Pendrick certainly seems
intent on making a splash.

7
00:01:21,414 --> 00:01:24,383
(musical finale)

8
00:01:24,577 --> 00:01:27,513
- Is everything synchronized?
- Yes sir.

9
00:01:27,547 --> 00:01:30,049
All is in order. It better be.

10
00:01:30,083 --> 00:01:34,053
- Mr. Edison you have my assurance...
- I don't give a hang about your assurances.

11
00:01:34,087 --> 00:01:37,055
My assurance that I have utilized none

12
00:01:37,089 --> 00:01:39,057
of your patented technology.

13
00:01:39,091 --> 00:01:41,059
Let me be satisfied of that.

14
00:01:41,093 --> 00:01:43,061
Even if I had, your patents

15
00:01:43,095 --> 00:01:45,263
don't apply beyond the
borders of the United States.

16
00:01:45,298 --> 00:01:47,265
Some of them do.

17
00:01:47,300 --> 00:01:49,801
Now I'd like to look at your
sound synchronization system.

18
00:01:49,836 --> 00:01:52,037
Absolutely not.

19
00:01:52,071 --> 00:01:54,905
Now, if you'll excuse me,
I have a show to put on.

20
00:01:54,940 --> 00:01:57,107
Keep an eye on him.

21
00:01:59,945 --> 00:02:03,480
When is this bloody
thing gonna get started?

22
00:02:09,619 --> 00:02:11,054
Ladies and gentlemen,

23
00:02:11,088 --> 00:02:13,957
prepare to be amazed!

24
00:02:13,991 --> 00:02:15,746
Bugger always was full of himself.

25
00:02:16,228 --> 00:02:20,723
You are the first to witness a
new era in filmed entertainment.

26
00:02:21,131 --> 00:02:23,600
Not only of sight, but sound.

27
00:02:23,634 --> 00:02:27,703
No doubt you've all noticed these.

28
00:02:27,737 --> 00:02:31,039
They're very easy to
use. Simply affix them.

29
00:02:31,074 --> 00:02:34,276
- Like this.
- (background reactions)

30
00:02:37,614 --> 00:02:41,015
Now prepare to be
transported to a new world.

31
00:02:41,105 --> 00:02:45,009
A world where all your senses are engaged!

32
00:02:46,310 --> 00:02:48,111
(applause)

33
00:02:59,056 --> 00:03:01,223
(whispers from the crowd)

34
00:03:06,363 --> 00:03:08,464
(reactions of surprise)

35
00:03:12,002 --> 00:03:13,969
(growl and reactions of surprise)

36
00:03:17,506 --> 00:03:21,142
(car honking, horse
neighing and dog barking)

37
00:03:23,477 --> 00:03:24,778
- (laughter)
- See that?

38
00:03:34,823 --> 00:03:38,459
(crow squawking)

39
00:03:38,493 --> 00:03:41,662
(gunshot and reactions of surprise)

40
00:03:41,697 --> 00:03:43,197
(laughing)

41
00:03:49,036 --> 00:03:52,239
(cheering and applause)

42
00:03:52,373 --> 00:03:54,474
I have to say, that was bloody good.

43
00:03:54,509 --> 00:03:57,277
- Indeed sir.
- (woman screaming)

44
00:04:10,902 --> 00:04:12,734
Ladies and gentlemen,
you've been very patient.

45
00:04:12,747 --> 00:04:15,225
We appreciate that and we'll
let you leave as soon as we can.

46
00:04:17,540 --> 00:04:19,772
- (background chatter)
- Doctor?

47
00:04:20,243 --> 00:04:23,211
- The bullet did not pass through.
- Right.

48
00:04:23,246 --> 00:04:26,715
The shot had to have
come from this direction.

49
00:04:26,750 --> 00:04:29,718
Everyone seated in this
section, please come forward.

50
00:04:29,753 --> 00:04:31,253
I'd like a word.

51
00:04:31,382 --> 00:04:34,316
No need to bother. I know who did this.

52
00:04:34,351 --> 00:04:37,353
And I'll fetch him for you.

53
00:04:38,856 --> 00:04:41,824
- What are you doing? Pendrick!
- This man.

54
00:04:41,859 --> 00:04:44,326
He's tried to destroy me ever
since I got into this business!

55
00:04:44,361 --> 00:04:47,830
- Could I have your name please sir?
- You surely don't think...

56
00:04:47,865 --> 00:04:51,667
- Your name!
- Thomas Alva Edison.

57
00:04:53,369 --> 00:04:55,904
No need to get excited, Mr. Pendrick.

58
00:04:55,938 --> 00:04:58,839
- Many apologies Mr. Edison.
- Can I go?

59
00:04:58,874 --> 00:05:02,377
Just bear with me. Murdoch, Murdoch.

60
00:05:03,879 --> 00:05:06,080
There's someone here
you might like to meet.

61
00:05:06,114 --> 00:05:10,385
Detective William Murdoch,
meet Mr. Thomas Edison.

62
00:05:14,556 --> 00:05:17,224
- Hey, it's a pleasure.
- (groaning)

63
00:05:17,258 --> 00:05:19,859
Detective Murdoch is something
of a tinkerer himself.

64
00:05:19,878 --> 00:05:22,846
He's invented quite a
few ingenious devices.

65
00:05:22,851 --> 00:05:23,852
Fascinating.

66
00:05:24,216 --> 00:05:27,618
Mr. Edison, if I may,
what are you doing here?

67
00:05:27,652 --> 00:05:31,154
I'm in your province to
check on my mining interests.

68
00:05:31,189 --> 00:05:33,156
And I do enjoy a moving picture,

69
00:05:33,191 --> 00:05:36,159
even when it's of a very low standard.

70
00:05:36,194 --> 00:05:39,629
Oh, dream onward, Edison. You
only wish to achieve what I have.

71
00:05:39,663 --> 00:05:42,165
I very much doubt that to be true.

72
00:05:42,200 --> 00:05:44,667
I'm here because I suspect
this man of being a thief.

73
00:05:44,702 --> 00:05:47,036
- I am not.
- We'll see about that.

74
00:05:47,038 --> 00:05:50,706
I believe he is in violation
of several of my patents.

75
00:05:50,740 --> 00:05:54,043
- I am not.
- May I go?

76
00:05:54,077 --> 00:05:56,345
Certainly, Mr. Edison. Certainly.

77
00:05:58,215 --> 00:06:00,516
You're letting a killer walk free.

78
00:06:00,550 --> 00:06:03,151
He's Thomas bloody Edison!

79
00:06:03,185 --> 00:06:05,186
Mr. Pendrick,

80
00:06:05,221 --> 00:06:07,688
the victim was seated
in this reserved section.

81
00:06:07,723 --> 00:06:09,824
- Did you know him?
- Sadly I did.

82
00:06:09,858 --> 00:06:13,694
His name is George Bailey,
and he's my primary investor.

83
00:06:13,729 --> 00:06:15,696
Someone shot him to destroy me

84
00:06:15,731 --> 00:06:18,198
and that someone just walked out that door.

85
00:06:19,734 --> 00:06:20,967
I have to leave.

86
00:06:21,002 --> 00:06:24,204
I have another moving
picture I have to make and

87
00:06:24,239 --> 00:06:26,873
my carriage driver is calling
at an ungodly hour tomorrow.

88
00:06:26,908 --> 00:06:28,708
Good evening gentlemen.

89
00:06:28,743 --> 00:06:31,711
Have you finished your questions?

90
00:06:31,746 --> 00:06:34,414
- I suppose so.
- Ladies and gentlemen.

91
00:06:34,448 --> 00:06:37,750
Thank you for your patience.
You're all free to go. Thank you.

92
00:06:37,784 --> 00:06:40,186
- Crabtree!
- Sir?

93
00:06:40,220 --> 00:06:42,088
Let's tear this place apart.

94
00:06:42,122 --> 00:06:45,058
See if we can find any
trace of the murder weapon.

95
00:06:45,092 --> 00:06:47,260
Sir.

96
00:06:48,702 --> 00:06:51,169
Julia, I didn't know you were here.

97
00:06:51,204 --> 00:06:53,038
I wouldn't miss the opportunity.

98
00:06:53,072 --> 00:06:54,906
It was a rather good
moving picture, wasn't it?

99
00:06:54,940 --> 00:06:58,043
Yes. Actually, I was watching the audience.

100
00:06:58,077 --> 00:07:00,879
I took the occasion to study
how the audience reacted

101
00:07:00,913 --> 00:07:02,680
to the images on the screen,

102
00:07:02,715 --> 00:07:05,183
how the immersion of the senses
can take fantasy to reality.

103
00:07:05,218 --> 00:07:08,185
Hmm. (clearing his throat)

104
00:07:08,220 --> 00:07:10,521
Did you see or hear
anything out of the ordinary?

105
00:07:10,555 --> 00:07:13,257
Just that people were
delighted with the experience.

106
00:07:15,727 --> 00:07:17,194
Excuse us.

107
00:07:17,229 --> 00:07:20,731
It's a pity he missed the ending.

108
00:07:20,765 --> 00:07:24,200
The moving pictures were
remarkable, weren't they?

109
00:07:24,235 --> 00:07:26,202
They were indeed George.

110
00:07:26,237 --> 00:07:29,205
When the train was coming for us, I
thought I would jump out of my skin.

111
00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:32,675
So did I George. Well, he
wasn't shot at close range.

112
00:07:32,709 --> 00:07:35,611
No powder burns at all.

113
00:07:37,248 --> 00:07:40,416
- There it is.
- Ugh.

114
00:07:42,252 --> 00:07:44,786
- 38 caliber I believe.
- (door opening)

115
00:07:44,820 --> 00:07:47,222
We've yet to recover the murder weapon.

116
00:07:47,257 --> 00:07:49,358
- William.
- Julia.

117
00:07:49,392 --> 00:07:52,727
Sorry to interrupt. I was told
that I would find you here.

118
00:07:52,762 --> 00:07:55,563
I thought of something that could
be of interest to your investigation.

119
00:07:55,597 --> 00:07:58,066
- What's that?
- While I was observing the audience

120
00:07:58,100 --> 00:08:00,072
at the moving picture I
noticed a number of things,

121
00:08:00,093 --> 00:08:02,776
the most interesting
being that at certain times

122
00:08:02,777 --> 00:08:04,903
the audience was so convinced
what they were seeing was real

123
00:08:04,933 --> 00:08:08,242
that they turned their face
away or averted their eyes.

124
00:08:08,277 --> 00:08:11,244
(Crabtree): Doctor, I was just
saying much the same thing.

125
00:08:11,279 --> 00:08:14,247
So if Mr. Bailey turned his head

126
00:08:14,282 --> 00:08:15,354
during the gunshot sequence...

127
00:08:15,355 --> 00:08:17,570
The killer may not have been
positioned where you'd thought he was.

128
00:08:18,512 --> 00:08:22,000
Dr. Ogden, would you like to
accompany me to the theatre?

129
00:08:23,491 --> 00:08:25,492
George, turn your head to the right.

130
00:08:25,526 --> 00:08:29,128
- The other right.
- Oh right!

131
00:08:29,162 --> 00:08:32,264
I thought you meant your right sir.

132
00:08:32,299 --> 00:08:35,767
Is this the manner in which you
observed most of them reacting?

133
00:08:35,802 --> 00:08:37,311
Yes. Some bowed their heads,

134
00:08:37,312 --> 00:08:39,272
but most turned their
glances away from the screen.

135
00:08:39,779 --> 00:08:40,906
Alright.

136
00:08:40,930 --> 00:08:45,533
Let's assume that Mr. Bailey
reacted in this manner.

137
00:08:48,604 --> 00:08:50,438
(reactions of surprise)

138
00:08:51,907 --> 00:08:55,042
That would mean the shot came from...

139
00:09:01,782 --> 00:09:04,384
(Crabtree): Well, look at that.

140
00:09:04,419 --> 00:09:07,421
- A bullet hole.
- Indeed it is.

141
00:09:08,923 --> 00:09:12,892
- What is it, William?
- George.

142
00:09:12,927 --> 00:09:16,529
Who else was sitting with Mr.
Bailey in this reserved section?

143
00:09:16,618 --> 00:09:19,853
These were all people who contributed
to the making of the moving picture.

144
00:09:19,888 --> 00:09:22,856
- And Mr. Pendrick?
- He was sitting in front of Mr. Bailey.

145
00:09:22,891 --> 00:09:24,858
But he did get up and move.

146
00:09:24,893 --> 00:09:28,262
- Was that before or after the shot?
- Before.

147
00:09:28,297 --> 00:09:30,731
Well then,

148
00:09:30,765 --> 00:09:34,401
perhaps our Mr. Bailey wasn't
the intended target after all.

149
00:09:35,904 --> 00:09:39,106
George, I need you to get me the
most powerful torch you can find.

150
00:09:39,140 --> 00:09:40,574
Sir.

151
00:09:53,286 --> 00:09:57,289
And... now Dr. Ogden!

152
00:10:00,427 --> 00:10:02,394
Did it work William?

153
00:10:02,429 --> 00:10:04,462
Yes, thank you.

154
00:10:04,496 --> 00:10:07,398
It would appear that Mr. Pendrick

155
00:10:07,433 --> 00:10:10,001
is very lucky he was not in his seat.

156
00:10:14,884 --> 00:10:16,110
It's a terribly exciting
venture, Mr. Pendrick

157
00:10:16,115 --> 00:10:19,494
is undertaking, isn't it sir? Sir?

158
00:10:19,684 --> 00:10:21,652
Moving pictures, George?

159
00:10:21,686 --> 00:10:24,655
That's somewhat beneath Pendrick's
intellect, don't you think?

160
00:10:24,689 --> 00:10:26,657
(woman screaming) Sir.

161
00:10:26,691 --> 00:10:29,660
- I see them.
- Oy! You! Stop there!

162
00:10:29,694 --> 00:10:33,297
- Toronto Constabulary. Unhand that woman at once.
- What's going on?

163
00:10:33,332 --> 00:10:35,565
- This isn't in the manuscript.
- Stop!

164
00:10:38,836 --> 00:10:40,670
Oh!

165
00:10:40,704 --> 00:10:44,474
Oh, I see. (background chatter)

166
00:10:44,508 --> 00:10:48,578
Murdoch, what did you have in mind
besides ruining my moving picture?

167
00:10:48,612 --> 00:10:50,679
A question, Mr. Pendrick.

168
00:10:50,713 --> 00:10:53,515
Why were you not in your seat
at the time of the shooting?

169
00:10:53,549 --> 00:10:57,853
I returned to the projector.
I have a witness to that.

170
00:10:57,887 --> 00:10:59,521
Besides the man who was
killed was my major investor.

171
00:10:59,555 --> 00:11:02,324
- Certainly not someone I'd want to see harmed.
- Mr. Pendrick...

172
00:11:02,359 --> 00:11:05,184
I had everything to lose and nothing
to gain by seeing that man die.

173
00:11:05,190 --> 00:11:06,130
James, I...

174
00:11:06,131 --> 00:11:08,598
Murdoch, why do you always
presume me to be guilty? I...

175
00:11:09,365 --> 00:11:12,033
Mr. Pendrick! I don't
suspect you of anything.

176
00:11:12,067 --> 00:11:14,202
Oh!

177
00:11:14,236 --> 00:11:16,604
Oh, that's refreshing.

178
00:11:16,638 --> 00:11:18,672
Eleanor!

179
00:11:18,707 --> 00:11:19,430
Develop that film.

180
00:11:19,431 --> 00:11:21,807
See if there's anything we can use
that Detective Murdoch didn't ruin.

181
00:11:22,477 --> 00:11:23,497
Right away Mr. Pendrick.

182
00:11:24,128 --> 00:11:26,378
Did you come all this way
just to tell me I didn't do it?

183
00:11:26,647 --> 00:11:28,715
No. Um...

184
00:11:28,749 --> 00:11:30,717
Mr. Pendrick,

185
00:11:30,751 --> 00:11:33,453
I suspect that someone
was trying to shoot you.

186
00:11:33,488 --> 00:11:35,955
If anyone shot at me,
it was that damn Edison!

187
00:11:35,990 --> 00:11:40,126
Thomas Edison is one of the
foremost inventors of our time.

188
00:11:40,160 --> 00:11:42,128
I highly doubt that he tried to kill you.

189
00:11:42,162 --> 00:11:44,530
That wouldn't be the
first time you were wrong.

190
00:11:44,564 --> 00:11:47,733
James, come on, can we go to lunch?

191
00:11:47,767 --> 00:11:51,237
Detective Murdoch are you
finished with my sweetheart?

192
00:11:51,271 --> 00:11:53,939
Yes. Do I know you?

193
00:11:53,973 --> 00:11:56,408
- Hmm?
- Fairchild.

194
00:11:56,442 --> 00:11:58,809
- Mm-mm.
- Minerva Fairchild.

195
00:11:58,844 --> 00:12:01,379
I go by Charlotte now.

196
00:12:01,414 --> 00:12:05,250
Where are my manners? I'm so sorry.

197
00:12:05,284 --> 00:12:07,585
Charlotte, this is
Detective William Murdoch.

198
00:12:07,619 --> 00:12:09,154
So nice to meet my fans.

199
00:12:09,188 --> 00:12:12,289
- Pleasure.
- Charlotte!

200
00:12:12,323 --> 00:12:15,926
Uh, Wallace. Please,
please don't be a pest.

201
00:12:15,960 --> 00:12:18,595
- I told you that we were through.
- I'll tell you when we're through.

202
00:12:18,629 --> 00:12:20,997
- Unhand her!
- (reactions in the background)

203
00:12:21,032 --> 00:12:23,099
Uh...

204
00:12:23,133 --> 00:12:25,602
You are coming with me.

205
00:12:25,636 --> 00:12:27,938
- I'm not finished with you.
- Mr. Pendrick, are you alright?

206
00:12:27,972 --> 00:12:30,073
Miss, are you alright?

207
00:12:30,107 --> 00:12:33,943
Yeah, I am. Thank you... for asking.

208
00:12:33,977 --> 00:12:37,913
Uh, Crabtree. George Crabtree.

209
00:12:37,948 --> 00:12:39,949
Such a strong name!

210
00:12:39,983 --> 00:12:42,317
- Oh, do you think?
- George!

211
00:12:43,887 --> 00:12:45,821
Um...

212
00:12:47,824 --> 00:12:50,792
You are an engineer, yes?

213
00:12:50,826 --> 00:12:53,962
So you could have devised
this scenario that I described?

214
00:12:53,996 --> 00:12:57,599
Of course. But I didn't do it. I
was working late at the University.

215
00:12:57,633 --> 00:12:59,366
Did anyone see you there?

216
00:12:59,401 --> 00:13:02,436
(sighing) This is ridiculous.

217
00:13:02,471 --> 00:13:04,872
Certainly I was upset that
Charlotte left me for him.

218
00:13:04,907 --> 00:13:08,274
But she's hardly worth murder.

219
00:13:08,309 --> 00:13:10,543
Think of anyone

220
00:13:10,578 --> 00:13:13,346
that may have seen you at the University.

221
00:13:15,416 --> 00:13:17,818
I do believe I may have
misjudged you James.

222
00:13:17,852 --> 00:13:19,820
You do have some brilliant ideas.

223
00:13:19,854 --> 00:13:22,822
No offense taken, Thomas. And I
think you'd be an excellent addition.

224
00:13:22,856 --> 00:13:24,824
Are you sure this is a real police station?

225
00:13:24,858 --> 00:13:27,459
'Course it's a real bloody
- What do you think it is?

226
00:13:27,494 --> 00:13:30,329
- Actors.
- Oh, I see, of course.

227
00:13:30,363 --> 00:13:33,288
- And is that Detective Murdoch?
- One and the same.

228
00:13:33,289 --> 00:13:34,289
I must talk to him.

229
00:13:34,334 --> 00:13:38,036
Study him. Detective
Murdoch. Lincoln Prescott.

230
00:13:38,070 --> 00:13:39,838
I am to be you.

231
00:13:39,872 --> 00:13:41,873
I see.

232
00:13:43,876 --> 00:13:46,845
Sir, what is going on?

233
00:13:46,879 --> 00:13:48,346
I've agreed to let James

234
00:13:48,380 --> 00:13:51,082
film parts of his moving
picture in Station House Four.

235
00:13:51,117 --> 00:13:53,551
It's a ripping coppers and robbers yarn.

236
00:13:55,386 --> 00:13:58,355
- He's found a role in it for me.
- Of course.

237
00:13:58,389 --> 00:14:01,358
And the real murder
I'm to be investigating?

238
00:14:01,392 --> 00:14:04,394
Oh, they'll stay out of your way, Murdoch.

239
00:14:05,897 --> 00:14:07,865
May I help you?

240
00:14:07,899 --> 00:14:09,866
Uh, no. Please, just carry on.

241
00:14:09,900 --> 00:14:13,870
I told Lincoln that you were the
inspiration for the detective.

242
00:14:13,904 --> 00:14:17,073
James mentioned Dr. Julia
Ogden. I'd like to see her again.

243
00:14:17,107 --> 00:14:20,109
He's hinted at your tortured
association with her.

244
00:14:21,912 --> 00:14:24,914
Sir, you're participating in this?

245
00:14:24,948 --> 00:14:27,382
James and I agreed that
the moving picture could use

246
00:14:27,416 --> 00:14:29,117
a touch of authenticity.

247
00:14:29,152 --> 00:14:32,387
Would you have dinner with us this evening?

248
00:14:32,421 --> 00:14:35,623
Lincoln and I would like to make
sure that you're accurately portrayed.

249
00:14:35,658 --> 00:14:38,465
- Oh, I don't know...
- Oh, do be a sport, Murdoch!

250
00:14:38,466 --> 00:14:39,970
Oh, I'm so sorry.

251
00:14:40,063 --> 00:14:43,197
The, uh, invitation is for
Detective Murdoch alone and his

252
00:14:43,231 --> 00:14:46,266
mysterious doctor.

253
00:14:46,301 --> 00:14:48,635
Scotch.

254
00:14:51,439 --> 00:14:53,574
(Murdoch clearing his throat)

255
00:14:55,443 --> 00:14:58,912
The inspiration for a moving
picture, sir, that's quite something.

256
00:14:58,946 --> 00:15:02,949
As would be finding the
man who killed Mr. Bailey.

257
00:15:02,983 --> 00:15:05,451
(Murdoch clearing his throat)

258
00:15:07,454 --> 00:15:09,789
Detective Murdoch, how
may I be of assistance?

259
00:15:09,824 --> 00:15:12,992
I'm wondering if perhaps you saw this man

260
00:15:13,027 --> 00:15:15,127
the night of the shooting.

261
00:15:15,161 --> 00:15:18,163
- Sorry.
- Did you happen to see anyone else?

262
00:15:18,198 --> 00:15:21,399
- Anyone who may have gone backstage?
- Only Mr. Edison, sir.

263
00:15:21,434 --> 00:15:22,345
Edison?

264
00:15:22,346 --> 00:15:24,720
Damn man wanted to check out
every aspect of this theatre.

265
00:15:24,938 --> 00:15:27,239
Made sure we weren't guilty
of any patent violations.

266
00:15:27,273 --> 00:15:30,474
- Dreadful pest.
- Thank you.

267
00:15:31,643 --> 00:15:34,946
Sir, that's the second
mention of Mr. Edison.

268
00:15:34,980 --> 00:15:36,981
It certainly is, George.

269
00:15:38,483 --> 00:15:41,452
(man laughing)

270
00:15:41,486 --> 00:15:44,455
It's just so good to see you again, Doctor.

271
00:15:44,489 --> 00:15:47,457
- And you, Minerva.
- (classical music)

272
00:15:47,491 --> 00:15:50,493
Pardon me if I'm being indiscrete but...

273
00:15:51,996 --> 00:15:53,429
what is Detective Murdoch to you?

274
00:15:53,464 --> 00:15:58,201
- We're very good friends.
- Oh!

275
00:15:58,236 --> 00:16:01,304
Is that it? There's
nothing... nothing more?

276
00:16:01,338 --> 00:16:03,933
Charlotte, perhaps you're
being a little too prying.

277
00:16:03,946 --> 00:16:05,534
I need to know who I am playing...

278
00:16:05,535 --> 00:16:07,300
a modern woman or a church mouse.

279
00:16:08,011 --> 00:16:09,979
If you're playing a modern
woman perhaps you shouldn't be

280
00:16:10,013 --> 00:16:12,014
trying to define her through
her relationship with a man.

281
00:16:12,048 --> 00:16:14,216
Besides, Charlotte,

282
00:16:14,251 --> 00:16:16,986
the writer and director has some say

283
00:16:17,020 --> 00:16:18,987
- in how your character acts.
- Some.

284
00:16:19,021 --> 00:16:22,523
But, uh, my coroner is going
to be much more dynamic.

285
00:16:22,557 --> 00:16:25,794
- Actually, I'm a psychiatrist now, not a coroner...
- I know, it's just...

286
00:16:25,828 --> 00:16:28,496
I'm sorry, it's just very dreary,

287
00:16:28,530 --> 00:16:30,364
speaking to morons.

288
00:16:30,399 --> 00:16:31,966
I want to be

289
00:16:32,001 --> 00:16:33,834
a woman of action.

290
00:16:33,868 --> 00:16:37,871
- But how do you feel?
- I'm sorry?

291
00:16:37,906 --> 00:16:38,988
Encountering these dastardly villains.

292
00:16:38,989 --> 00:16:40,313
- You must be afraid?
- (laughter in the background)

293
00:16:41,542 --> 00:16:44,178
Well, I've never really thought about...

294
00:16:44,212 --> 00:16:46,980
And the human cost? Surrounded by tragedy.

295
00:16:47,015 --> 00:16:48,315
How do you sleep?

296
00:16:48,349 --> 00:16:51,217
Eight hours. Rain or shine.

297
00:16:51,251 --> 00:16:54,687
(Julia laughing) And the cost
your work must have on your soul!

298
00:16:58,192 --> 00:17:01,828
William sees crime as an...
as an intricate puzzle.

299
00:17:01,862 --> 00:17:06,064
- One which can always be solved...
- Yes, yes. But how does it affect you?

300
00:17:06,098 --> 00:17:08,233
(soft classical music)

301
00:17:08,267 --> 00:17:11,536
Hmm. I've never really considered how it...

302
00:17:11,570 --> 00:17:12,871
I see.

303
00:17:14,573 --> 00:17:18,243
The man truly is an island. (laughter)

304
00:17:19,578 --> 00:17:22,612
Mr. Pendrick, this latest venture of yours,

305
00:17:22,647 --> 00:17:25,049
are you sure it's going to work?

306
00:17:25,083 --> 00:17:27,718
Murder, crime as entertainment?

307
00:17:27,752 --> 00:17:29,553
We have mystery novels.

308
00:17:29,587 --> 00:17:32,422
I'm simply trying to
create a visual narrative.

309
00:17:32,457 --> 00:17:34,558
Yes, I understand that but...

310
00:17:34,592 --> 00:17:36,560
filmed depravity

311
00:17:36,594 --> 00:17:39,062
is something completely different.

312
00:17:39,096 --> 00:17:42,065
See, I'm willing to bet that you're wrong.

313
00:17:42,099 --> 00:17:44,968
<i>I believe that The Filmed Adventures
of Detective William Murdoch</i>

314
00:17:45,002 --> 00:17:48,037
will play to standing-room-only
crowds from coast to coast.

315
00:17:48,072 --> 00:17:50,073
Moving pictures are

316
00:17:50,107 --> 00:17:52,575
this century's predominant
form of entertainment...

317
00:17:52,609 --> 00:17:54,609
I'm willing to bet on
it... for young and old.

318
00:17:54,643 --> 00:17:57,579
- I highly doubt that.
- (Julia chuckling)

319
00:17:57,613 --> 00:17:59,381
But I wish you luck.

320
00:17:59,415 --> 00:18:02,117
(background chatter)

321
00:18:03,619 --> 00:18:06,855
Are you really going to call it that?

322
00:18:13,628 --> 00:18:15,629
(background chatter)

323
00:18:19,134 --> 00:18:21,402
You there. Can you hold this for me?

324
00:18:21,436 --> 00:18:22,904
Not my department.

325
00:18:22,938 --> 00:18:25,606
Well, my job is the director.

326
00:18:25,640 --> 00:18:28,574
But as you can see, I'm
playing a small role too.

327
00:18:28,609 --> 00:18:32,612
And I'm still waiting to be
paid, Mr. Pendrick. Director sir.

328
00:18:32,646 --> 00:18:34,414
You there.

329
00:18:34,448 --> 00:18:38,151
Grip this. George.

330
00:18:38,185 --> 00:18:41,621
Have we established
Mr. Wallace's alibi yet?

331
00:18:41,655 --> 00:18:44,589
(whispering): ... a bit more atmosphere.

332
00:18:44,624 --> 00:18:47,126
- Constable.
- Oh, I'm sorry sir.

333
00:18:47,160 --> 00:18:50,162
It's all quite fascinating,
isn't it? And the Inspector, sir.

334
00:18:50,196 --> 00:18:54,133
Having a makeup applied as
if he were a lady. (giggling)

335
00:18:54,167 --> 00:18:56,287
George, when you're ready
to tear yourself away,

336
00:18:56,288 --> 00:18:58,074
perhaps you can find
out where Mr. Wallace was

337
00:18:58,080 --> 00:19:00,338
- at the time of the murder.
- Sir, will do.

338
00:19:00,372 --> 00:19:02,140
Excellent work, Detective Murdoch.

339
00:19:02,174 --> 00:19:04,142
- Thank you sir.
- No, no, no.

340
00:19:04,176 --> 00:19:08,146
Excellent work, Murdoch.
Excellent work, Murdoch.

341
00:19:08,180 --> 00:19:11,649
- Excellent work, Murdoch.
- Dr. Grace, I wasn't expecting you.

342
00:19:11,683 --> 00:19:14,651
- I thought I'd bring you these lab reports.
- I didn't request any lab re...

343
00:19:14,685 --> 00:19:18,388
- Oh, the filming. Yes, of course.
- Is it true Lincoln Prescott is here?

344
00:19:18,393 --> 00:19:19,797
Yes. He's the chap who's
playing Detective Murdoch.

345
00:19:19,798 --> 00:19:21,054
Could you introduce me to him?

346
00:19:21,226 --> 00:19:25,162
Constable Crabtree, could you
help practice my lines with me?

347
00:19:25,196 --> 00:19:26,529
Me?

348
00:19:26,564 --> 00:19:29,166
- Well, yes, I suppose so.
- Hello, I'm Emily Grace.

349
00:19:29,200 --> 00:19:32,668
I have to practice my scene. But thank you.

350
00:19:32,702 --> 00:19:34,870
Pendrick!

351
00:19:34,904 --> 00:19:36,172
Alphonse?

352
00:19:36,206 --> 00:19:39,675
I see that you're play-acting
as well as directing.

353
00:19:39,709 --> 00:19:42,644
- What have you done to my manuscript?
- I made a few amendments.

354
00:19:42,659 --> 00:19:44,500
Amendments? You've ruined it.

355
00:19:44,501 --> 00:19:46,710
- I'd hardly say that.
- You have!

356
00:19:46,715 --> 00:19:50,185
Murdoch can't be shot. It
has to be Constable Tom!

357
00:19:50,219 --> 00:19:53,721
Alphonse, I am the director
and what I say goes!

358
00:19:53,755 --> 00:19:56,191
But if you do it like that,
it doesn't make any sense.

359
00:19:56,225 --> 00:19:59,194
In the third act, Tom is
the one who has to get shot.

360
00:19:59,228 --> 00:20:02,896
The audience won't care about
Tom. Murdoch is the star.

361
00:20:02,930 --> 00:20:05,699
But the ending won't make any sense at all.

362
00:20:05,733 --> 00:20:08,068
It doesn't matter. There'll
be a terrific chase scene!

363
00:20:08,103 --> 00:20:10,737
Idiot!

364
00:20:14,442 --> 00:20:16,176
(moaning)

365
00:20:16,211 --> 00:20:18,111
Bloody writers!

366
00:20:18,145 --> 00:20:20,713
All they do is set the table.

367
00:20:20,747 --> 00:20:23,249
The actors prepare the feast.

368
00:20:24,485 --> 00:20:26,219
Quiet please!

369
00:20:26,253 --> 00:20:29,222
And, places and...

370
00:20:29,256 --> 00:20:31,257
let's act.

371
00:20:37,263 --> 00:20:39,731
I'm sorry, I'm just not comfortable.

372
00:20:39,765 --> 00:20:41,433
Stop filming.

373
00:20:41,467 --> 00:20:43,235
What is it?

374
00:20:43,269 --> 00:20:46,738
I'm not comfortable with how
this scene has been rewritten.

375
00:20:46,772 --> 00:20:48,631
I had prepared all evening
to do it the other way.

376
00:20:48,968 --> 00:20:49,532
Why?

377
00:20:49,575 --> 00:20:52,609
Constable Tom should escort the criminal.

378
00:20:52,644 --> 00:20:54,245
Not me. I am the Detective.

379
00:20:54,279 --> 00:20:57,348
To touch the criminal is beneath me.

380
00:20:57,422 --> 00:20:59,156
You're also the hero.

381
00:20:59,191 --> 00:21:00,691
Mr. Prescott, please,

382
00:21:00,725 --> 00:21:03,827
just take the young man to the
jail cell... took, took, took.

383
00:21:03,862 --> 00:21:06,329
Detective Murdoch's style of
law enforcement is more cerebral.

384
00:21:06,364 --> 00:21:09,599
- It's not this, uh, roughhouse.
- I could do it.

385
00:21:09,633 --> 00:21:13,436
- Thank you, no.
- Perhaps George Crabtree could do it.

386
00:21:13,471 --> 00:21:16,772
- It'd be nice to have a real policeman in the scene.
- Me?

387
00:21:16,807 --> 00:21:20,910
- No, I couldn't possibly.
- You already have a real policeman.

388
00:21:20,944 --> 00:21:23,078
Everybody please just take your places.

389
00:21:23,113 --> 00:21:25,214
And... let's act.

390
00:21:25,248 --> 00:21:28,283
And begin.

391
00:21:28,318 --> 00:21:30,252
Come with me.

392
00:21:33,456 --> 00:21:36,225
(screaming) No!

393
00:21:36,259 --> 00:21:39,093
No! Stop filming.

394
00:21:39,128 --> 00:21:42,731
Fabulous, Mr. Prescott! Excellent!

395
00:21:42,765 --> 00:21:44,733
It was very convincing!

396
00:21:44,767 --> 00:21:48,469
Mr. Prescott? Mr. Prescott?

397
00:21:48,504 --> 00:21:50,772
Mr. Prescott?

398
00:21:53,910 --> 00:21:56,276
(background reactions)

399
00:22:01,005 --> 00:22:02,064
I don't know what happened.

400
00:22:03,140 --> 00:22:04,488
Is he going to be alright?

401
00:22:04,898 --> 00:22:06,787
The wound doesn't appear to be too serious.

402
00:22:08,767 --> 00:22:10,312
How quickly do you think
he'll be back on his feet?

403
00:22:10,315 --> 00:22:13,236
- I'd like to resume...
- He should rest for at least a couple of days.

404
00:22:13,910 --> 00:22:18,114
Sorry, a couple of days? Not hours... days.

405
00:22:18,148 --> 00:22:19,615
Days.

406
00:22:19,649 --> 00:22:22,517
Lincoln, I'm so sorry. I'm
gonna have to relieve you.

407
00:22:24,020 --> 00:22:25,453
Mr. Pendrick...

408
00:22:25,488 --> 00:22:27,722
- Leave your costume at the door.
- I...

409
00:22:27,756 --> 00:22:30,025
(Murdoch clearing his throat)

410
00:22:41,036 --> 00:22:43,003
James, sweetie.

411
00:22:43,038 --> 00:22:46,507
I, uh, I just had a bit of an idea.

412
00:22:46,541 --> 00:22:48,708
I could replace him.

413
00:22:50,545 --> 00:22:52,211
(chuckling)

414
00:22:54,581 --> 00:22:57,050
(others laughing as well)

415
00:22:58,552 --> 00:23:00,019
A female copper.

416
00:23:00,054 --> 00:23:01,921
(general laughter)

417
00:23:01,955 --> 00:23:04,557
That's a bloody good one.

418
00:23:07,061 --> 00:23:08,994
I just did what Mr. Pendrick told me to do.

419
00:23:09,029 --> 00:23:11,263
- Which was?
- I was to enter the room

420
00:23:11,297 --> 00:23:15,034
and shoot the man who was
escorting my partner in crime.

421
00:23:15,068 --> 00:23:17,937
- The gun wasn't supposed to be loaded.
- But it was.

422
00:23:17,971 --> 00:23:21,189
- The gun was loaded with a blank cartridge.
- Are you sure?

423
00:23:21,275 --> 00:23:24,709
Of course I'm... are you
telling me I don't know my job?

424
00:23:24,743 --> 00:23:28,261
No, but the gun you assured
me was loaded with a blank,

425
00:23:28,481 --> 00:23:30,076
instead fired a live round.

426
00:23:30,116 --> 00:23:32,947
When I put it on the table,
it was equipped with a blank.

427
00:23:32,948 --> 00:23:34,063
Someone must have switched them.

428
00:23:34,988 --> 00:23:36,955
Isn't it your responsibility

429
00:23:36,990 --> 00:23:39,591
to oversee the items used in the
filming of this moving picture?

430
00:23:39,625 --> 00:23:41,459
I've only got two hands.

431
00:23:41,493 --> 00:23:44,029
Mr. Pendrick has been
working us like a tyrant

432
00:23:44,030 --> 00:23:45,587
to get this moving picture finished.

433
00:23:45,663 --> 00:23:48,299
- Without pay.
- Sir.

434
00:23:48,333 --> 00:23:50,968
I'm wondering about this writer chap.

435
00:23:51,003 --> 00:23:53,971
He was in the vicinity of the
weapon and he did offer a threat.

436
00:23:54,006 --> 00:23:56,906
- Excellent idea, George. Find out where he...
- Lives? Already done that, sir.

437
00:23:56,940 --> 00:23:59,175
I did have a love for
the stage as a young man.

438
00:23:59,210 --> 00:24:02,479
But the call of duty to Queen and
Country denied me the opportunity.

439
00:24:02,513 --> 00:24:05,615
Sir, we're off to question a witness.

440
00:24:05,649 --> 00:24:07,617
Yes, yes, Murdoch. Carry on. Carry on.

441
00:24:07,651 --> 00:24:10,620
Of course, the love of
the stage still courses

442
00:24:10,654 --> 00:24:12,488
through my veins.

443
00:24:12,522 --> 00:24:16,392
In fact, I was told I was bloody good.

444
00:24:19,029 --> 00:24:20,329
Yeah.

445
00:24:20,363 --> 00:24:24,033
(people talking and dog
barking in the distance)

446
00:24:25,535 --> 00:24:28,637
- This is where the writer lives?
- Sir, as good as.

447
00:24:28,671 --> 00:24:32,040
- There he is now.
- (background chatter)

448
00:24:33,543 --> 00:24:37,512
- Sir, a moment? I'm Detective William Mur...
- Yes.

449
00:24:37,547 --> 00:24:40,515
I know who you are. He made me
name my damn manuscript after you.

450
00:24:42,051 --> 00:24:44,752
A near fatal accident has occurred
where Mr. Pendrick is filming.

451
00:24:44,786 --> 00:24:48,022
- Uh, was Pendrick hurt?
- (Crabtree): No.

452
00:24:48,056 --> 00:24:50,691
Oh, that's a shame. What happened?

453
00:24:50,725 --> 00:24:54,261
Someone tampered with a
gun. An actor was shot.

454
00:24:54,295 --> 00:24:56,764
An actor? Well at least
that's something. Which one?

455
00:24:56,798 --> 00:25:00,534
- The one playing Murdoch.
- Ugh. Pendrick's a fool.

456
00:25:00,568 --> 00:25:04,003
Constable Tom was the one
who was supposed to be shot.

457
00:25:04,038 --> 00:25:07,540
- Pendrick's playing Constable Tom.
- And poorly, I'd wager.

458
00:25:07,575 --> 00:25:11,544
- This is no laughing matter, sir.
- I never tampered with a gun.

459
00:25:11,579 --> 00:25:15,048
I never fired a gun and
I'm certainly not involved.

460
00:25:15,082 --> 00:25:17,082
When I choose a weapon...

461
00:25:18,585 --> 00:25:20,085
I use this.

462
00:25:21,588 --> 00:25:23,488
Thank you for your time.

463
00:25:26,826 --> 00:25:30,562
So, according to that
chap's original manuscript,

464
00:25:30,597 --> 00:25:34,098
the character who is being
shot was played by Pendrick.

465
00:25:38,503 --> 00:25:41,072
Oh Murdoch.

466
00:25:41,106 --> 00:25:43,574
Could I have a word?

467
00:25:43,609 --> 00:25:46,577
(background chatter)

468
00:25:46,612 --> 00:25:49,079
You can't be serious.

469
00:25:49,113 --> 00:25:52,582
But who better to play
Murdoch than Murdoch?

470
00:25:52,617 --> 00:25:54,584
Mr. Pendrick, need I remind
you that I am searching

471
00:25:54,619 --> 00:25:56,586
for someone who may be trying to kill you?

472
00:25:56,621 --> 00:26:00,590
If that's the case, they may
be associated with this venture.

473
00:26:00,625 --> 00:26:02,125
What better place to look?

474
00:26:03,628 --> 00:26:05,094
But you want me to act.

475
00:26:05,128 --> 00:26:07,496
That would compromise my ability to conduct

476
00:26:07,530 --> 00:26:09,098
a proper investigation.

477
00:26:09,132 --> 00:26:12,101
- On the contrary, you'd be closer to the action.
- As an actor.

478
00:26:12,135 --> 00:26:14,103
Not a detective. Balderdash.

479
00:26:14,137 --> 00:26:17,640
Acting is nothing more than standing
around all day and reciting a few words.

480
00:26:19,643 --> 00:26:21,575
(Julia laughing)

481
00:26:21,610 --> 00:26:24,612
- What's so amusing?
- You.

482
00:26:24,647 --> 00:26:27,115
Acting?

483
00:26:27,149 --> 00:26:30,118
That's so ridiculous?

484
00:26:30,152 --> 00:26:34,155
Well, it's just not something
I can imagine you doing.

485
00:26:35,658 --> 00:26:39,660
I've heard that, apparently,
there isn't much to it.

486
00:26:42,163 --> 00:26:44,131
Alright Mr. Pendrick.

487
00:26:44,165 --> 00:26:46,133
You're on.

488
00:26:46,167 --> 00:26:48,635
But I am only doing this
to aid my investigation.

489
00:26:48,670 --> 00:26:51,171
Of course. Of course.

490
00:26:57,678 --> 00:27:00,646
(background chatter)

491
00:27:00,681 --> 00:27:04,150
I certainly hope your math is up to snuff

492
00:27:04,184 --> 00:27:06,652
- because your account...
- Murdoch.

493
00:27:06,687 --> 00:27:09,154
- Are you ready to begin?
- Yes.

494
00:27:09,188 --> 00:27:11,656
I have some questions about these words.

495
00:27:11,691 --> 00:27:15,193
- Thoughts actually.
- Thank you, Murdoch. We'll talk about it later.

496
00:27:21,701 --> 00:27:23,168
Stop.

497
00:27:23,202 --> 00:27:26,670
Murdoch. What are you doing?

498
00:27:26,705 --> 00:27:29,206
Checking for finger marks.

499
00:27:32,711 --> 00:27:36,680
Is that... is that in the manuscript?

500
00:27:36,715 --> 00:27:39,717
No, no, but it's what a
real detective would do.

501
00:27:41,218 --> 00:27:44,220
Just do what's in the manuscript.

502
00:27:48,726 --> 00:27:50,693
And... let's act.

503
00:27:50,728 --> 00:27:53,730
And are you sure that you...

504
00:27:56,233 --> 00:27:59,201
- Mr. Pendrick?
- What is it, Murdoch?

505
00:27:59,235 --> 00:28:02,204
Why is this constable not wearing a hat?

506
00:28:02,238 --> 00:28:06,208
A Canadian constable
would always wear a hat.

507
00:28:06,242 --> 00:28:08,210
Stop filming.

508
00:28:08,244 --> 00:28:10,212
I'm hoping

509
00:28:10,246 --> 00:28:14,215
to distribute this moving
picture all over the world.

510
00:28:14,249 --> 00:28:17,218
I don't want to confuse the audience.

511
00:28:17,252 --> 00:28:19,253
(church bell ringing) Oh.

512
00:28:21,256 --> 00:28:22,757
Let's act.

513
00:28:30,264 --> 00:28:32,732
Uh, Mr. Pendrick.

514
00:28:32,767 --> 00:28:35,735
(impatiently): Yes Murdoch.

515
00:28:35,770 --> 00:28:38,772
Why would I give the gun to him?

516
00:28:42,276 --> 00:28:44,777
(mumbling): Idiot.

517
00:28:47,280 --> 00:28:50,249
Because he shoots somebody later on.

518
00:28:50,283 --> 00:28:52,251
It's in the manuscript.

519
00:28:52,285 --> 00:28:56,755
A trained policeman would
never do such a thing.

520
00:28:56,790 --> 00:28:58,791
I don't care.

521
00:29:01,794 --> 00:29:03,762
I'm sorry, I have to stop you.

522
00:29:03,796 --> 00:29:06,264
Uh, a real coroner would simply

523
00:29:06,299 --> 00:29:08,265
not handle the body in such a...

524
00:29:08,300 --> 00:29:11,268
- Hey, would you just mind your business?
- I'm just trying to help.

525
00:29:11,303 --> 00:29:13,270
- Did I ask for your...
- Stop!

526
00:29:13,305 --> 00:29:16,273
Mr. Pendrick, a real
coroner would simply not

527
00:29:16,308 --> 00:29:18,275
- handle the body in such a man...
- He's been on me all day.

528
00:29:18,310 --> 00:29:22,279
- No, no, no, I cannot work under these conditions.
- I know, I know.

529
00:29:22,314 --> 00:29:24,781
- Sorry about that.
- Murdoch.

530
00:29:24,815 --> 00:29:28,284
Um, could I have a quick word with you?

531
00:29:28,319 --> 00:29:29,819
Yes.

532
00:29:36,827 --> 00:29:38,294
Detective!

533
00:29:38,329 --> 00:29:40,796
George.

534
00:29:40,830 --> 00:29:43,298
He fired me.

535
00:29:43,333 --> 00:29:45,300
I know sir, I know.

536
00:29:45,335 --> 00:29:48,804
Alright. We should get
back to the station house.

537
00:29:48,838 --> 00:29:52,341
- Begging your pardon, sir. I wonder if I might stay.
- Stay?

538
00:29:53,843 --> 00:29:56,344
Mr. Pendrick needs me on set in 5 minutes.

539
00:30:00,349 --> 00:30:02,850
I'll do your namesake proud, sir. Trust me.

540
00:30:06,855 --> 00:30:09,357
(horse neighing)

541
00:30:13,861 --> 00:30:17,831
It's not personal,
Murdoch. It's just business.

542
00:30:17,865 --> 00:30:20,834
No offense taken. I'm very busy.

543
00:30:20,868 --> 00:30:23,370
George Crabtree seems quite the natural.

544
00:30:26,374 --> 00:30:29,341
Mr. Pendrick, you seem to
have much less staff today.

545
00:30:29,376 --> 00:30:31,844
Yes, that damn Edison.

546
00:30:31,878 --> 00:30:35,347
- Edison?
- He came by this morning

547
00:30:35,382 --> 00:30:38,851
offering them jobs at his new film
studio... at rates I couldn't afford.

548
00:30:38,885 --> 00:30:42,354
- And they took them?
- Like fish to water.

549
00:30:42,389 --> 00:30:44,856
But I'll soldier on. William.

550
00:30:44,890 --> 00:30:48,860
- Ladies.
- We heard the bad news.

551
00:30:48,894 --> 00:30:51,863
Or good news depending
on how you look at it.

552
00:30:51,897 --> 00:30:55,867
Perhaps George Crabtree will
be our next moving picture star.

553
00:30:55,901 --> 00:30:57,869
Can everyone take your places, please?

554
00:30:57,903 --> 00:31:00,904
Mr. Pendrick is ready to begin.

555
00:31:04,409 --> 00:31:06,877
(background chatter)

556
00:31:06,911 --> 00:31:09,913
Took, took, took.

557
00:31:11,416 --> 00:31:14,851
And places, and...

558
00:31:14,886 --> 00:31:17,387
let's act.

559
00:31:17,421 --> 00:31:21,424
Detective, we're gonna have
to take him to the morgue.

560
00:31:27,932 --> 00:31:30,400
I'll alert the constables immediately.

561
00:31:30,434 --> 00:31:33,402
And Doctor Ogden, thank you.

562
00:31:33,436 --> 00:31:35,904
I don't think I could
have done this without you.

563
00:31:35,939 --> 00:31:37,906
No, no, no.

564
00:31:37,941 --> 00:31:41,443
Thank you Detective Murdoch. Thank you.

565
00:31:42,946 --> 00:31:46,448
- Oh my.
- Alright. Stop. Stop.

566
00:31:47,950 --> 00:31:51,385
Cut it out. Cut!

567
00:31:51,420 --> 00:31:54,422
- What?!
- That was not in the manuscript.

568
00:31:54,456 --> 00:31:56,424
The manuscript said I was
supposed to embrace him.

569
00:31:56,458 --> 00:31:58,926
Well, that was a lot more than an embrace.

570
00:31:58,961 --> 00:32:02,463
- Yeah, well perhaps it'll titillate the audience.
- It was titillating, yeah.

571
00:32:03,965 --> 00:32:05,465
Emily!

572
00:32:08,970 --> 00:32:10,437
George Crabtree.

573
00:32:10,471 --> 00:32:12,939
You certainly enjoyed that.

574
00:32:12,974 --> 00:32:15,942
No, no, no, no, no, I had
to kiss her back, Emily.

575
00:32:15,977 --> 00:32:18,445
Otherwise it would ruin the moving picture.

576
00:32:18,479 --> 00:32:21,447
Ruin the moving picture. In a pig's eye.

577
00:32:21,481 --> 00:32:24,450
Oh Emily. No, no, no,
it's as a professional.

578
00:32:24,484 --> 00:32:27,486
I don't have any feelings
when I kiss the pretty woman.

579
00:32:29,489 --> 00:32:32,958
Play back some of the audio recording.

580
00:32:32,993 --> 00:32:34,960
I want to make sure we're getting

581
00:32:34,995 --> 00:32:37,462
Mr. Crabtree's voice.

582
00:32:37,496 --> 00:32:39,464
(background chatter)

583
00:32:39,798 --> 00:32:43,001
Do I look like a man with time on my hands?

584
00:32:49,008 --> 00:32:52,476
Mr. Pendrick! Stop! Stop it! Mr. Pendrick!

585
00:32:52,510 --> 00:32:55,979
- Mr. Pendrick!
- (mic feedback)

586
00:32:56,014 --> 00:32:57,981
- Are you alright?
- What?

587
00:32:58,016 --> 00:32:59,983
(louder): Are you alright?

588
00:33:00,018 --> 00:33:02,986
(loud): Yes, yes, I think so!

589
00:33:03,021 --> 00:33:05,489
Murdoch, I think someone
is trying to kill me.

590
00:33:05,523 --> 00:33:08,491
Yes, that's what I've been
trying to tell you all along.

591
00:33:08,525 --> 00:33:12,495
You say Edison paid you a visit?

592
00:33:12,529 --> 00:33:16,532
- What?
- Edison. Edison came by?

593
00:33:26,070 --> 00:33:28,539
How much longer do you
plan on detaining me?

594
00:33:28,573 --> 00:33:31,542
Until I get satisfactory
answers to my questions.

595
00:33:31,576 --> 00:33:34,545
You were at the moving picture
theatre the night of the shooting.

596
00:33:34,579 --> 00:33:38,048
Only to make sure Mr. Pendrick was
not violating one of my patents.

597
00:33:38,082 --> 00:33:40,550
And I was not at your police station

598
00:33:40,584 --> 00:33:42,552
during the other shooting you mentioned.

599
00:33:42,586 --> 00:33:46,556
You were at the filming of
Mr. Pendrick's moving picture.

600
00:33:46,590 --> 00:33:48,558
Poaching his workers.

601
00:33:48,592 --> 00:33:52,562
I was simply offering them
better, more prestigious jobs.

602
00:33:52,596 --> 00:33:56,565
Detective Murdoch, I'm an
inventor, plain and simple.

603
00:33:56,599 --> 00:33:58,099
Not a murderer.

604
00:33:59,602 --> 00:34:02,571
That very well may be,
but isn't it true that

605
00:34:02,605 --> 00:34:05,574
Mr. Pendrick's sound technology
has outstripped your own?

606
00:34:05,608 --> 00:34:07,576
I have no interest in sound.

607
00:34:07,610 --> 00:34:09,578
I am on record stating

608
00:34:09,612 --> 00:34:12,080
sound will be the death of moving pictures.

609
00:34:12,114 --> 00:34:14,582
Perhaps because you have yet to master it.

610
00:34:14,616 --> 00:34:16,584
I would master it.

611
00:34:16,618 --> 00:34:19,587
If I had an interest. Which I do not.

612
00:34:19,621 --> 00:34:22,590
But Mr. Pendrick has.

613
00:34:22,624 --> 00:34:25,092
And that makes him a threat.

614
00:34:25,126 --> 00:34:27,094
I am the holder

615
00:34:27,128 --> 00:34:29,095
of more than 700 patents.

616
00:34:29,129 --> 00:34:31,598
All of them unique inventions.

617
00:34:31,632 --> 00:34:34,100
Mr. Pendrick is hardly a threat.

618
00:34:34,134 --> 00:34:36,603
Either charge me

619
00:34:36,637 --> 00:34:39,138
or let me go.

620
00:34:42,142 --> 00:34:45,110
- Sir.
- Henry?

621
00:34:45,144 --> 00:34:48,113
I took the liberty of examining
all the motion picture equipment

622
00:34:48,147 --> 00:34:50,616
- on Mr. Pendrick's movie location.
- Really? And?

623
00:34:50,650 --> 00:34:53,619
I found Mr. Edison's finger marks
on a number of pieces of equipment.

624
00:34:53,653 --> 00:34:56,622
As I told you, I was there.

625
00:34:56,656 --> 00:35:00,625
There were finger marks on the thing
that almost killed Mr. Pendrick, sir.

626
00:35:00,659 --> 00:35:04,629
- Mr. Edison?
- Do you seriously believe that I would murder...

627
00:35:04,663 --> 00:35:07,632
- I don't know, Mr. Edison.
- Detective Murdoch.

628
00:35:07,666 --> 00:35:10,134
If I wanted to Harm
Pendrick, I would use weapons

629
00:35:10,168 --> 00:35:12,637
far more devastating than any gun:

630
00:35:12,671 --> 00:35:14,138
My attorneys.

631
00:35:14,172 --> 00:35:17,140
Henry, show Mr. Edison our cells.

632
00:35:17,174 --> 00:35:18,642
I can't...

633
00:35:18,676 --> 00:35:22,145
- Are you charging me?
- Not as yet.

634
00:35:22,179 --> 00:35:24,147
And good work Henry.

635
00:35:24,181 --> 00:35:26,650
Your show of initiative has been noted.

636
00:35:26,684 --> 00:35:28,652
Sir.

637
00:35:28,686 --> 00:35:30,687
Mr. Edison.

638
00:35:33,189 --> 00:35:36,158
- I said put the closer picture first.
- I'm sorry.

639
00:35:36,192 --> 00:35:38,661
Mr. Pendrick, a moment of your time.

640
00:35:38,695 --> 00:35:40,663
You have to pay attention, Eleanor.

641
00:35:40,697 --> 00:35:43,165
I have watched this film a million times.

642
00:35:43,199 --> 00:35:45,701
Then watch it a million and one.

643
00:35:48,204 --> 00:35:52,173
- His finger marks? On my recording device?
- Yes.

644
00:35:52,207 --> 00:35:54,609
And you're still not convinced?

645
00:35:54,643 --> 00:35:56,678
He is ruthless.

646
00:35:56,712 --> 00:35:59,681
But I find it hard to believe
that he would be that careless.

647
00:35:59,715 --> 00:36:02,684
I'll trust your judgment, Murdoch.

648
00:36:02,718 --> 00:36:06,186
I don't know why, but I will.

649
00:36:06,220 --> 00:36:08,722
Mr. Pendrick?

650
00:36:10,224 --> 00:36:12,692
I have a moving picture to finish.

651
00:36:12,726 --> 00:36:14,694
If I don't I'll be ruined.

652
00:36:14,728 --> 00:36:18,731
Yet again. But if you
continue you may be killed.

653
00:36:20,734 --> 00:36:24,704
- Then I'll die for my art.
- Mr. Pendrick.

654
00:36:24,738 --> 00:36:28,707
Art is a sculpture, a painting, poetry.

655
00:36:28,741 --> 00:36:32,744
You're making a moving picture
starring Constable George Crabtree.

656
00:36:38,250 --> 00:36:40,251
(background chatter)

657
00:36:42,755 --> 00:36:45,723
The exact moment of the gunshot...

658
00:36:45,757 --> 00:36:49,226
Corresponds with the moment the
gunfighter raised his weapon.

659
00:36:49,260 --> 00:36:51,228
Which we determined earlier

660
00:36:51,262 --> 00:36:54,231
was aimed directly where
James Pendrick was sitting.

661
00:36:54,265 --> 00:36:56,022
So the person behind the screen

662
00:36:56,023 --> 00:36:58,260
had an exact knowledge of
the images on the screen.

663
00:36:58,269 --> 00:37:01,237
And knew exactly when they would occur.

664
00:37:01,331 --> 00:37:03,299
Mr. Edison?

665
00:37:03,333 --> 00:37:07,303
Mr. Edison saw the moving
picture once, maybe twice.

666
00:37:07,337 --> 00:37:09,806
Whoever was sitting behind this screen

667
00:37:09,840 --> 00:37:13,843
had to have had an intimate
knowledge of the moving picture.

668
00:37:15,845 --> 00:37:17,813
(horse neighing)

669
00:37:18,147 --> 00:37:20,816
<i>(Eleanor's echoing voice):
I have watched this film</i>

670
00:37:20,850 --> 00:37:23,351
<i>a million times.</i>

671
00:37:26,856 --> 00:37:28,356
Eleanor Grimes.

672
00:37:30,860 --> 00:37:32,827
Hmm.

673
00:37:32,861 --> 00:37:35,830
Emily said they were filming
on Queen Street today.

674
00:37:35,864 --> 00:37:38,833
Don't tell me. Is she taken
with the moving pictures as well?

675
00:37:38,867 --> 00:37:42,336
(uneasy laugh) I believe
she's keeping an eye on George.

676
00:37:42,370 --> 00:37:44,839
- Right.
- You know William,

677
00:37:44,873 --> 00:37:47,841
I imagine you would have
made a fine film actor.

678
00:37:47,875 --> 00:37:49,843
Thank you.

679
00:37:49,877 --> 00:37:52,846
- But I just can't abide all the inaccuracies.
- (Julia laughing)

680
00:37:52,880 --> 00:37:55,849
You might be my superior, but I have to say

681
00:37:55,883 --> 00:37:57,851
you're the most incompetent
police officer I ever...

682
00:37:57,885 --> 00:38:00,353
- Watch your mouth Murdoch or I'll...
- Or you'll what?

683
00:38:00,387 --> 00:38:03,856
Solve a case without me?
I'm William Murdoch and you,

684
00:38:03,890 --> 00:38:07,860
you're dirtying my coattails
from riding them so hard,

685
00:38:07,894 --> 00:38:10,863
so just stand down and let me do my job!

686
00:38:10,897 --> 00:38:14,867
And stop. Excellent work, Mr. Crabtree!

687
00:38:14,901 --> 00:38:17,369
You're a dead man, Crabtree.

688
00:38:17,403 --> 00:38:20,371
But sir, I'm simply reciting
what it says in the manuscript.

689
00:38:20,405 --> 00:38:22,373
With just a little too much enthusiasm.

690
00:38:22,407 --> 00:38:25,376
Develop this and have it on my desk.

691
00:38:25,410 --> 00:38:27,378
Yes sir.

692
00:38:27,412 --> 00:38:29,881
Mr. Pendrick, I wonder if I
might be able to have a word

693
00:38:29,915 --> 00:38:32,383
with your assistant here. Miss Grimes.

694
00:38:32,417 --> 00:38:34,886
Miss Grimes,

695
00:38:34,920 --> 00:38:37,888
is it not true that you have made
three of your own moving pictures?

696
00:38:37,922 --> 00:38:41,391
- I have.
- And you presented them to Thomas Edison?

697
00:38:41,425 --> 00:38:43,393
He stole them from me.

698
00:38:43,427 --> 00:38:45,896
I made the mistake of using
one of his film cameras.

699
00:38:45,930 --> 00:38:48,899
Ah! So now you're but a lowly assistant.

700
00:38:48,933 --> 00:38:52,902
I am more than that,
sir. I am a film editor.

701
00:38:52,936 --> 00:38:55,432
Labouring under a man you
consider to be a lesser talent.

702
00:38:55,863 --> 00:38:56,433
I beg your pardon?

703
00:38:56,940 --> 00:38:59,909
Miss Grimes, if you were
to kill James Pendrick

704
00:38:59,943 --> 00:39:03,412
and implicate Mr. Edison in the murder,

705
00:39:03,446 --> 00:39:05,414
you'd be able to return
to your rightful place.

706
00:39:05,448 --> 00:39:07,916
If that were true, I doubt it would work.

707
00:39:07,950 --> 00:39:09,417
No man,

708
00:39:09,451 --> 00:39:12,453
except the rare husband, would
ever take orders from a woman.

709
00:39:14,456 --> 00:39:17,425
Miss Grimes, Mr. Edison's
finger marks were not

710
00:39:17,459 --> 00:39:20,929
the only ones found on Mr.
Pendrick's sound recording equipment.

711
00:39:20,963 --> 00:39:22,430
George.

712
00:39:22,464 --> 00:39:25,432
Please escort Miss Grimes
to the station house

713
00:39:25,466 --> 00:39:27,467
and test her finger marks.

714
00:39:29,470 --> 00:39:31,939
Ugh! Agh!

715
00:39:31,973 --> 00:39:35,475
That, my dear, is a woman of action.

716
00:39:37,979 --> 00:39:41,447
- Did you manage to film that?
- Yes.

717
00:39:41,481 --> 00:39:43,449
Excellent.

718
00:39:43,483 --> 00:39:45,484
Excellent. Excellent.

719
00:39:48,246 --> 00:39:49,484
Thank you, Dr. Ogden.

720
00:39:50,342 --> 00:39:53,431
<i>- I don't think I could have done this without you.
- No, no, no.</i>

721
00:39:53,818 --> 00:39:56,286
<i>Thank you Detective Murdoch.</i>

722

734
00:40:35,358 --> 00:40:38,327
Well, I must say, I thought
I was bloody excellent.

735
00:40:38,361 --> 00:40:41,329
(all laughing) Excellent indeed, sir.

736
00:40:41,363 --> 00:40:43,331
Mr. Pendrick,

737
00:40:43,365 --> 00:40:46,334
in spite of a few inaccuracies

738
00:40:46,368 --> 00:40:48,836
you have made a roaring adventure.

739
00:40:48,870 --> 00:40:52,340
Thank you, Murdoch. And if
it's a success I'll make more.

740
00:40:52,374 --> 00:40:54,342
Excellent, Mr. Pendrick. I
do have a suggestion, though.

741
00:40:54,376 --> 00:40:58,345
I trust it doesn't involve
further spooning with my girl.

742
00:40:58,379 --> 00:41:02,349
No, it has to do with the
title of your moving picture.

743
00:41:02,383 --> 00:41:05,352
<i>The Filmed Adventures of Detective William
Murdoch hardly trips off the tongue.</i>

744
00:41:05,481 --> 00:41:08,950
And it would make for a very
long marquee. That's true.

745
00:41:08,984 --> 00:41:10,952
- What do you suggest?
- Just...

746
00:41:10,986 --> 00:41:13,454
<i>The Murdoch Mysteries.</i>

747
00:41:13,488 --> 00:41:15,456
(suspense music)

748
00:41:15,490 --> 00:41:17,458
I like it.

749
00:41:17,492 --> 00:41:19,960
It's snappier. (chuckling)

750
00:41:19,994 --> 00:41:21,962
Bravo, Mr. Pendrick.

751
00:41:21,996 --> 00:41:23,964
Get out of here.

00:41:23,998 --> 00:41:27,968

Come on, son.

754
00:41:30,003 --> 00:41:32,472
With my technology and
your artist's vision,

755
00:41:32,506 --> 00:41:35,475
we could take the world
by storm. My vision.

756
00:41:35,509 --> 00:41:37,977
And my sound equipment, you mean.

757
00:41:38,011 --> 00:41:40,980
We could utilize that. Mr. Pendrick.

758
00:41:41,014 --> 00:41:44,983
I and a group of others are
considering going to California

760
00:41:48,521 --> 00:41:52,491
- You could be a part of it.
- The motion picture industry will be here.

761
00:41:52,525 --> 00:41:54,493
In Toronto, Canada.

762
00:41:54,527 --> 00:41:57,996
I have no intention of going into
business with a scoundrel such as you.

763
00:41:58,030 --> 00:42:00,498
Well, good luck to you.

764
00:42:00,532 --> 00:42:03,000
I own all the theatres and all patents

765
00:42:03,034 --> 00:42:07,004
on all moving picture
technology in the United States.

766
00:42:07,038 --> 00:42:09,507
Who will you sell to?

767
00:42:09,541 --> 00:42:12,510
I'll exhibit my moving
pictures in the great halls

768
00:42:12,544 --> 00:42:14,512
- of Europe and France and Italy.
- England.

769
00:42:14,546 --> 00:42:17,514
Won't be worth a bucket of spit.

770
00:42:17,548 --> 00:42:20,016
<i>Your Murdoch Mysteries</i>

771
00:42:20,050 --> 00:42:23,553

screen south of the border.

772
00:42:29,059 --> 00:42:31,027
Are you sure that was wise, Mr. Pendrick?

773
00:42:31,061 --> 00:42:33,028
I don't need the United States.

774
00:42:33,062 --> 00:42:37,032
Under my leadership Canada will be at the
forefront of the motion picture industry.

775
00:42:37,156 --> 00:42:39,625
On that you have my word.

776
00:42:39,659 --> 00:42:42,628
Gentlemen, thank you for your assistance.

777
00:42:42,662 --> 00:42:44,630
Mr. Pendrick.

778
00:42:44,664 --> 00:42:46,632
James, if you ever do decide

779
00:42:46,666 --> 00:42:49,166
to make another moving
picture sir I'll call you.

780
00:42:52,671 --> 00:42:56,640
The motion picture industry is
terribly exciting, isn't it sirs?

781
00:42:56,674 --> 00:42:58,185
I do hope he succeeds.

782
00:42:59,586 --> 00:43:00,132
- Murdoch.
- Sir.

784
00:43:03,081 --> 00:43:06,440
I'm not entirely sure I can
envy a future where everyone

785
00:43:06,454 --> 00:43:09,052
wastes their lives staring at a screen

786
00:43:09,186 --> 00:43:11,187
