All language subtitles for This Sid(1950)

This is Sans Souci.
It means "Without Care"

And this is Angel.

Angel and I got along together.

Maybe because I knew where he stood,

ready to tear out my throat.

Sans Souci.

Without Care.

Whoever named this place dealt a
joker from the bottom of the deck

or maybe from the bottom of
this old abandoned cistern

And me? David Cummins.

I've got other names
too. Sucker is one.

Yes, that's good enough

I'm gonna die. I'm gonna die
in this filthy hole

because I was measured for a patsy

And it fit. For good.

There's no way out, is there
bright boy?

Go ahead, try it again

Give up sucker, give up. You might
as well face it.

You're done for.

Finished , that's what you are.

So just use what time you've got
left to go back

over everything that happened

things you know now and
things you figured out

A lot can happen in a week.

A week ago, you hadn't even
seen Sans Souci.

You didn't know it existed.

See something you like?

-I like it all.
-Alright man, move on.

-There's a law against looking?
-There's a law against vagrancy.

Got a job?

-I am working at it now.
-Alright, smart guy. Come on. Let's go.

50 dollars or 30 days

David Cummins. David Cummins.

You're charged of vagrancy. No
visible means of support.

-How do you plead?
-Guilty

50 dollars or 30 days

Yes?

-What was that man's name?
-David Cummins

Mr. Cummins, Mr. Cummins.

Better out here, isn't it?

-You paid my fine
-You're abrupt Mr Cummins, but true.

Is there any reason I should
thank you?

I talk better over a cup of coffee.
How about you?

That depends on what I have
to talk about.

I paid 50 dollars to get you
out here.

The least you can do is let me
tell you why I did it

50 dollars for me?
Inflation's here to stay

-P.C.?
-Philip Cagle. Attorney at law.

-One of those
-Not the kind you think I am.

How does it happen that a man like you

is picked up on a vagrancy charge?

Very simple. I'm a vagrant.
No visible means of support.

-You're not the usual type.
-Is there a usual type of vagrant?

-Yes.
-Look Mr Cagle. I'm a stranger to you.

You've never seen me before.

-Why did you pay my fine?
-I want you to do me a favour.

- 50 dollar favour?
-No. One for 500 dollars.

- You said favour or career?
-I think we better go to my office.

- Then what? -This may sound
mysterious to you but

I want my judgement backed up
by someone else.

-Judgement?
-Let's leave it at that, shall we?

Well, like you said, you paid
50 dollars for me. Let's go.

Wait a minute.

I think we should use the door
to my private office.

I want you to go on ahead of me
without saying a word. Understand?

That's clear enough
but I don't understand.

You'll when you get inside.

I'll do all the talking.
Don't you say anything.

I've absolutely nothing to talk about.

-Mr. Taylor?
-Surprised, Miss Roberts? -I..

-Oh Miss Roberts, I won't
be needing you for a while.

I.., oh, certainly, Mr. Cagle.

I'm very sorry to have acted
like such an idiot, Mr. Taylor.

But it was such a shock,
I mean, a surprise.

Miss Roberts is efficient,
intelligent and very sharp.

You had to be good to fool her. You did.

Without half trying

Ok, I'm a great success but at what?

At being a man I want you to be for 2 weeks.

- A man named Taylor. I believe
that was the name. -Yes

-A man named Malcolm Taylor. Did
you ever hear of him? -I'm afraid not.

Take a look at this.

-Do you see what I mean?
-Yes, I think I do.

Good. For 2 weeks, you're
going to be Malcolm Taylor.

-Just like that, huh?
-Just like 500 dollars.

You're asking me to impersonate
a man I know nothing about.

I look like him sure
but that's only skin deep.

Miss Roberts believed you were Taylor.

For one moment, in court
this morning, so did I.

-Where is this Taylor?
-I wish I knew.

-I think you do know Mr. Cagle
- I do?

I would be interested in
learning why you think that.

Your Miss Roberts believed I was
Malcolm Taylor. She still does.

You believed it only for a moment

which means you knew I
couldn't possibly be him.

I must be bringing back
Vaudeville. I am killing you.

You're smart Cummins

but there's just one thing wrong
with your reasoning.

That could be. I make mistakes.
What's this one?

Malcolm Taylor could never be
picked up in jail on a vagrancy charge.

What makes him such a good boy?

-3 million dollars.
-He is no vagrant

Now will you listen to a proposition?

Any proposition that starts with
3 million dollars is worth listening to.

Malcolm Taylor has been
missing for almost 7 years.

In 2 weeks, it will be 7 years and
Enoch Arden law can be invoked.

And Taylor can be declared dead, legally.

Exactly. I don't want that to happen.

-Why not?
-You ask a great many questions.

Wouldn't you if you were
in my place, Mr. Cagle?

If I were in your place,
I would think of the 500 dollars.

-No sell
-You need the money don't you?

Yes, I need the money Mr. Cagle. Badly.

-So? -So you need a man
who looks like Malcolm Taylor.

I'm that man, maybe
one in a million, right?

-Go on. -You also want a man who won't ask

too many questions, who
won't ask what your angle is.

You want him to walk into something

with his eyes on 500 dollars and
not on what he is stepping into.

You won't get into any trouble.
I'll see to that.

That could be.

but it could also be that my curiosity is
worth more than 500 dollars.

-Meaning it could be bought?
-Make me an offer.

-1000
-I've got a lot of curiosity

You know what they
did to the cat, don't you?

-Meow
-Two thousand

With a little more curiosity
I could get to be a rich man.

-Then you'll do it? -Yes
-Good -For 5000

-You just sold your curiosity.
-For cash. No charge accounts.

When you get to Sans Souci,
I'll have it ready for you.

Sans Souci?

The Taylor estate. Now in this
folder there's everything

you need to know about Malcolm Taylor

once we've gone through
it, you'll be him.

and I only hope you can
act as well as you bargain.

-Act? - Yes.
You gotta fool three people.

Calder, your brother.
Nadine, your sister-in-law.

-I thought you said three people.
-And Evelyn.

-Who's Evelyn?
-Your wife, Mr. Taylor.

Sans Souci is about half
a mile up this road.

I'll let you out at the gate.

Nervous?

-Maybe. -In two days,
you've learned more about

Malcolm Taylor than he
knows about himself.

-You think I'll get away with it?
-You've got to.

-What's your stake in this?
-I own your curiosity, remember?

Yeah, what if I backed out?

I don't think you'd want to,
once you get to Sans Souci.

-Why not? -Why not wait and find out?

-I'll say this for you. You make
it sound interesting.-It will be.

This is it, Mr. Taylor. I hope you
don't have any trouble with the dog.

I won't if he still
remembers Malcolm's clothes.

-Oh, one thing I forgot to tell you.
-Like what? -Your brother hates you.

-How nice.
-Well just be careful, that's all. Goodbye.

Angel

Easy boy. Angel.

Angel, easy.

Here, smell. smell.

Angel, here boy. here. smell

Easy angel , easy.

Down boy, down.

Easy boy. Down, down.

Good dog, good dog

Good dog, excellent dog

Malcolm!

Malcolm!

Hello Calder

Hello Nadine

Sorry, I broke up your game

Where did you come from?

What's the matter?

No welcome for the
long lost boy?

Of course Malcolm. It's just that
we don't know what to say.

I guess not.

I might have known. I might
have known you'd come back.

You couldn't have been dead,
could you?

No, not you.

Same old Calder.

Hasn't changed a bit.

How have you been Nadine?

You care?

I ask

Yes, you asked

after 7 years

You know what's a
very funny thing?

I wondered a million times what I'd do
or say if..when you came back.

I had a thousand things to say.

I've forgotten all

O Malcolm, why didn't you write?

I didn't have time

You didn't have time

Evelyn, your long lost husband
has come back to us

Hello Evelyn

Hello Evelyn?

As if you've been just around
the corner all the while

You're not glad to see me

Welcome home, Malcolm

Malcolm! When you called me
I could hardly believe it

I called you?

-Play it this way, will you?
-Oh ok

-Everything going alright?
-So far yes

Let's go to the summerhouse.
We can talk there.

It's a good idea. I think we have
got something to talk about.

The others at the house?

-They were there when I left
-Good

-Well, was it interesting?
-Very. I am not well liked up there, am I?

There's no love wasted

But they didn't question you
or doubt who you were?

-No
-And Evelyn?

-I didn't see much of her
-No, I didn't think you would

Why do they hate Malcolm?
Why did he go away?

I thought we weren't going
to have so many questions.

I've got to ask them now.

Well, I can answer some
of them now

Malcolm went away because he wanted to.

He was his father's favourite.
He always did as he pleased

And no one went against him

What about Evelyn?
Why does she hate her own husband?

Evelyn was romantic.
Malcolm Taylor was a hero.

She found out too late that
his shining armour

got rusted very easily.

-Why didn't she divorce him?
-I told her not to.

-You did? Why?
-Why should she?

Any settlement she got would have
been peanuts compared with

the Taylor fortune she stands to inherit if

the real Malcolm doesn't come back.

Oh sure, she had grounds
for divorce, desertion

but I advised against it

I see.

Where is Malcolm Taylor?

That's what I want you to find out.

I'd like to know if he came back

and if he did, where he is.

Oh I'm sure Malcolm wouldn't
have stayed away

if he learned of his father's death.

Well, maybe he didn't know about it.

Written up in every paper in the world.
He was famous, wealthy.

No, I'm afraid Malcolm would
never have stayed away.

-Is that all you're going tell me?
-That's all I know.

If there's anything else, you can
find out and I think you will

because Evelyn is very lovely
and Nadine is very nasty

You like to sit here?

Don't go. Oh I'm sorry.

I don't want to hurt you.
I mean that, Evelyn

Suppose you do Malcolm.
You always meant it...

for a little while

I wonder if anyone is glad I am back

You should know better
than to ask that of me

-Should I? Why?
-Because I might tell you the truth

I'd like to hear it from you.

Why did you come back?

-3 million dollars is hard to
stay away from. -Of course.

-That's what I was expected to say,
wasn't I? -You never fail, do you?

-Please. Wait a minute.
-What is it?

Do you really hate me
that much?

No, I don't hate you
at all, Malcolm.

Maybe if I did, it would
be better

I'd have some emotion about you.
Now there's nothing at all.

And it's like being empty inside.

I think I hold that against you
more than anything else.

-Why?
-Because hating you would have made

it so much easier to stay here.

Thinking you would never come
back to Sans Souci

thinking it would be mine

A thousand times I wished
you're dead

but I knew I didn't mean it

'cause I didn't care that much.
No, I don't hate you.

Oh it's you.

Wasn't a very charming reunion, was it?

-Did you expect it to be?
-I don't expect much these days.

I guess that's just as well.
I'd like to talk with you.

-What about?
-Shall we go back to the garden?

Alright.

-You remember this place?
-Of course. Why?

-What do you want to talk about?
-Maybe you are changed.

Lots of people change.
Why should I be different?

No you're not changed.
You're the same Malcolm.

Careless about other people's feelings,
hurting them deliberately and viciously.

This seems to be my night of
finding out all about myself

-Well, it shouldn't be news to you.
-Somehow, it is.

-What's the matter with you?
-Nothing, nothing at all.

It's a beautiful night.
Kind of romantic.

-Stop it.
-Don't you feel it?

I'm sorry. I'm sorry, darling.

I told myself that when you came
back, I'd despise you. I don't.

-It might be better if you did.
-I know.

Oh malcolm, you don't love her.
You told me you didn't in here

that night before you went away.
-Forget it.

-Forget it? Forget it?
-That's what I said.

What's happened to you?
Have you suddenly become honorable?

Have you suddenly remembered
that I'm your brother's wife?

-Maybe I have.
-Well, it didn't matter before.

-It does now.
-Why?

Let's leave it at that.

Takes just a few words to wipe
the whole thing out, doesn't it?

-We'd better go back.
-To what?

You'll go back to where you left
off and I'll go back to Calder.

That fool, that idiot.
Why do you think I stayed with him?

because I thought if you weren't
coming back there would be the money

which Evelyn would have got
if I hadn't come back.

-Oh would she? Would she?
-What do you mean? what do you mean?

-Let me go.
-Why did you say that?

-I didn't say anything.
-Answer me.

-Let me go
-Answer me

I'll kill you, I'll kill you.

-Calder, stop it, stop it
-You're such a ..

-Stop it, Calder.
- You can't do this.

After 7 years, you can't come back.

Calder

What's the matter?

Why did he come back?
Why did he have to come back?

Now he'll take her away
from me again.

What are you talking about?

You didn't know, did you?
About him and Nadine.

You knew about the others
but not about Nadine

Why didn't you tell me?

I thought if you knew, you
wouldn't let her stay here.

It's alright Calder. Doesn't
make any difference to me.

No, none at all.

Well, looks like the cat is
out of the bag, doesn't it?

Yeah, in more ways than one.

-Who is it?
-Malcolm. I have to see you for a minute.

Evelyn.

-What do you want?
-May I come in?

-Well? -I,uh, I guess this hasn't
been very nice for you, has it?

I'm trying to tell you I'm sorry.

-You're saying you're sorry?
-Well, that was the idea.

-What are you leading up to?
-Nadine.

-I don't think you understand.
-But I do.

I'm not a child anymore.
It wasn't much of a shock.

You just ran true to form, that's all.

Suppose I should tell you that
Nadine means nothing to me.

If you want her to go, say so.
This house is yours.

-Yours.
-And yours.

I suppose in your own
peculiar way you're trying

-to tell me you're sorry.
-Do you believe me?

-It wouldn't make any difference.
-Why not?

You still think you can order
the world at your convenience?

If you do something to hurt me
or anyone else, all it takes

is a word for you to make
everything alright again.

It's not that easy.

Alright, forget that for a moment.
Let's get back to Nadine.

-Are you afraid of her?
-Of course not.

-And Calder?
-You should be afraid of him, not I.

Maybe you're right.

-What's the matter?
-Nothing. I..

Why are you looking at me
like that?

I had the strangest feeling that
I was seeing you for the first time.

That's a little silly isn't it?

Yes I know but I can't help it.

-Do I seem changed to you?
-A little.

-In what way?
-I don't know

That's the way you seem to me.
Changed but I don't know how.

Give me Fairfax 3408.
7 Oaks 820

-Hello?
-Cagle?

-Yes.
-I want to see you in the morning.

-I'll come to your office.
-Anything wrong?

No, everything's alright so far,
with me. But I want to see you.

-How about 10 o' clock?
-Alright, 10 in the morning.

Good morning Mr. Taylor.
Mr. Cagle is expecting you.

-Will you go right in please?
-Thank you.

-Well?
-As they say in Alice in Wonderland,

this thing gets curiouser and curiouser.

-Come on, let's get to the point.
-You told me when I took this job

-it would be interesting.
-Disappointed?

No, I'm easy to please, up to a point.
Then I begin to open my eyes.

Suppose you tell me what might
have happened at Sans Souci?

-Might have happened?
-Yes. Do you know that Nadine thinks

that Evelyn wouldn't have a
chance at the money

-if Malcolm doesn't come back?
-What are you talking about?

Nadine is no model for the girl
that married dear old dad.

Last night she slipped.
She made a pitch for me.

-What? -I dodged.
Evidently the real Malcolm didn't.

Anyway the point is, she
made a crack about Evelyn

-having no chance for the money.
-So it's that way.

Do you think Nadine would
do anything?

Anything. No reservations.
Metal or otherwise.

Look I had no idea this
was going on.

I wanted you at Sans Souci
to protect

the legal interest of my client Malcolm
Taylor. Now it's more than that.

-I want you to protect Evelyn.
-How?

By just being there.
By posing as Malcolm.

As long as Nadine and Calder
think the real Malcolm is back

their chances for the estate are gone.

-They would have no reason
to get rid of Evelyn. -Yeah.

-Why don't you call the police?
-With what? Guesses? Suspicions?

-No, it's better this way.
-Except for two things.

-What do you mean?
-Number one. Malcolm.

-Suppose he turns up.
-I'll take full responsibility.

Alright, Number two. I can't
pose as Malcolm forever.

Sooner or later, I'm going to slip.
I've got one foot in the ice already.

What happens to Evelyn when
I take the fall?

Yes.

You better get back
to Sans Souci.

Keep going as long as you can.
Be careful what you say or do.

-Then what?
-Then it becomes a legal matter.

-That's my business.
-Seems to me it was your business

to locate Malcolm Taylor as
soon as his father died.

Let me show you something.

Take a look at these reports from
private detective agencies.

Missing persons bureau. We
searched for seven years.

-Does that answer your question?
-Yeah

Then you better get back and
keep an eye on Evelyn.

-That won't be hard to do, will it?
-Just one more thing.

-What now? -Would Calder have
the nerve to kill anyone?

Calder would have the nerve
if Nadine gave it to him.

Evelyn.

-You mind if I walk?
-I don't think I could stop you.

Please, I want to talk with you.

-There's nothing to talk about.
-You said that before.

-Then remember it.
-I got to speak to you.

-Well? -Why don't you try
not to dislike me?

-We've been all over that.
-Maybe we have.

-And why bring it up again?
-Let's sit down.

No, I would rather walk.

You know it's going to be hard
to talk if you don't look at me.

Please, Malcolm.

I want you to like me.

Alright. I like you.
May I go now?

-Look. I'm only trying to help.
-It's a little late, isn't it?

Sometimes a man makes a mistake.
So he wants to do better the next time.

There are a lot of men like that.
I know one.

He made a mistake once.
He took it pretty seriously.

Let himself slide right down
to the bottom.

Hitting the bottom was the
only thing that wakened him

Is the the story of your
7 years away from us?

It might be. I could
have made a mistake.

It could be made right again.

That doesn't sound like you, Malcolm.

Your mistakes were always
somebody else's fault.

-You were always right.
-Maybe I was always wrong.

-What do you want of me?
-Nothing. Just to be with you.

Talk to you like this.

-I'm going away Malcolm.
-I thought you'd say that.

-But I... What's the matter?

-Get him away
-Alright

Angel. Angel.

Since you left, he won't have
anything to do with anybody

It's alright.
Angel, back.

He acted as if he
didn't know you.

And he was always your dog.
Only yours.

Maybe I'm a changed man.

You're always in the right place
at the right time, aren't you?

-That must have taken a lot
of practice. -Not too much.

If I didn't know you better, I'd think

you were entering an ideal husband contest.

-I wonder if I'd have a chance.
-I don't think so.

You lost your amateur standing
a long time ago.

-Let's talk about something else.
-I think we'd better.

-We can't talk here.
-You lead the way.

-Do you care if she leaves you?
-I can't stop her.

-Will you try?
-I told you. I can't stop her.

I guess that should be good enough for me.

-That's fine.
-What's the matter with you?

-Nothing
-Malcolm, I don't like this.

-Then let's stop it.
-It's not that e..

What's the matter?
What's the matter?

Why you! You're not Malcolm.

Malcolm and Calder had a fight
when they were boys and

Calder used a knife.
There was a scar.

Who are you? To do
what you did?

to know everything about
us, to fool us and Cagle.

No, I'm not afraid of you.
You wouldn't dare do anything

to me because you know
know you would be found out.

You knew Malcolm, didn't you?

Knew him, learned about us
and then killed him.

You don't know what you're
talking about.

That's the only way you
could have come here.

If you knew he wouldn't be back.
You had to know that.

I never knew him. I never
even saw him.

This is better than I imagined.
Much better.

What are you going to do?

Nothing. Nothing at all.

Because Malcolm's dead. He has
to be.

-You don't know that.
-You know you're a very clever man.

You almost got the money. You would
have gotten it, except for me.

Well, I can be clever too.

-What do you mean?
-It's so simple.

Go right on being Malcolm.
Get the money.

-Only don't keep it all for yourself.
-You don't miss a bet, do you?

-You can take it or leave it.
-What if I don't take it?

-Then I'll go to the police.
-And if I accept?

-What have you got to lose?
-Suppose I want time to think it over.

Think it over now.

-You don't leave me much choice.
-None, except money

and me.

-Hello.
-This is Cummins.

-I've got to see you as soon as possible.
-What's the matter?

-Nadine knows I'm not Malcolm.
-How did that happen?

There was something about a scar, the
only thing you didn't mention.

-You didn't bring me into it, did you?
-No, I didn't tell her anything.

-Good. Keep it that way till the morning.
-She is trying to make a deal with me.

-What kind of a deal?
-She is willing to believe I'm Malcolm

-if she gets her cut.
-I see.

Alright. I'll be off first
thing in the morning.

-Hello? -Nadine?
-Philip

-Can you talk?
-Yes, it's alright. I'm in my room.

-I've gotta see you right away.
-Now?

-I said right away. At the same place.
-Alright.

-Sorry, I kept you waiting.
-It's alright. I just got here myself.

I had to talk with you. It's
very important.

What's the matter?

I don't think the real
Malcolm is back.

-You're crazy.
-Maybe not.

-Do you know it's Malcolm?
-Why, of course I know.

-Are you sure it is?
-I'm very sure.

-I knew him quite well, remember?
-Yes, I remember.

-What makes you think he isn't Malcolm?
-Oh, lots of things.

-Little things
-You're borrowing trouble Philip

-Am I?
-Of course you are.

The whole plot was so perfect. A simple
accident. Evelyn out of the way.

And you and Calder would
inherit all the money.

Well, it's impossible now.

Yes. Impossible. But think how
nice it would have been.

-Three million dollars. -Oh what's the
good of talking about it anymore?

-Malcolm's back and that's that.
-Are you still sure it's Malcolm?

Yes, I am. Besides Evelyn would
know.

He's been away for almost 7 years.
He and Evelyn had very little to do

with each other. I think a clever man
could fool her. Maybe fool even you.

-Oh I don't think so.
-You don't seem very disappointed.

Oh for heaven's sake, Philip, he's back.
What's the good of all this talk?

No good I suppose. But it took
a lot of careful planning.

-I don't like to see everything go wrong.
-What will you do to me?

I told you I don't like to see
everything go wrong.

As far as we can see, she got
a little too close to the edge.

Piece of the edge broke off. There
ought to be a fence up there.

-Anybody know what time she
left the house? -I don't.

Anybody see her go out?

You said that she came back to
the house with you.

I told you I went back to the house
with her. I didn't see her again till now.

He's lying. I know he's lying.
She left to meet him.

-Well?
-I didn't leave my room.

-Then you saw her go out.
-She said she was gonna take a walk.

I wanted to go with her but
she wouldn't let me.

She wouldn't let me because she
was gonna meet him.

Here, here!

-Cut it out. -Come on.
Out you go.

-Do you think he went with her?
-What do you mean?

Well, look Mr. Taylor, I don't
like to say this but..

Forget it. He wouldn't kill her.

Yeah I guess you're right. Can't make
anything out of it but an accident.

You better get your brother up to
the house.

I've just heard.

-Where's Evelyn and Calder? -Calder's
in his room and Evelyn's with him.

-Cagle, it was an accident.
-Of course, what else could it have been?

-Calder thinks I did it.
-He is a hysterical fool.

That's just it.

What happens now?

-You're going to leave Sans Souci.
-Leave? -You've got to.

-And Evelyn?
-She'll be alright now.

But if I go, how do you explain me?
What happens?

I don't know exactly. But you gotta
leave here as soon as possible.

It's 11 o' clock now. Come to
my office at 3 o' clock.

-You're early. I've just been to
the sheriff's office. -And?

Don't worry. The sheriff's convinced
it was an accident.

-Now what?
-But there'll be more investigation.

And when there is, there'll be
more questions.

Questions you may not be
able to answer.

-What do you mean?
-Just that.

You're not Malcolm Taylor.
Nadine discovered that.

Someone else may discover it too.

-And you have a lot of explaining to do.
-And you could be a lot of help to me.

Of course, if it comes to that.
But it's better my way.

-And what's your way?
-This document, when signed by you

will give Evelyn the estate.
-With you as executive?

-Of course. What's odd about that?
-That means the estate will be in your

-control for another seven years.
-What do you suspect me of?

-I don't know.
-I do. I filch all negotiable bonds

and securities from the estate and
leave Evelyn holding the bag. Is that it?

-That's not impossible.
-No but more a little improbable.

Then I'd have to get rid of Evelyn
and Calder. Have you any suggestions

how I do that?
-And if Malcolm shows up meanwhile?

-So much the better. -Then you'd
have a lot of explaining to do.

-I'll cross that bridge when I come to it.
-Wait a minute. I can't sign this.

I can get by with the face but not
the signature.

Take a look at the last page

-Did he sign this?
-No, I did. There are dozens

of his signatures in the office and
it's very simple to trace one.

-You'll never get away with it.
-On the contrary

I'll have two of my office
force witness the signature.

With you in here, they'll
assume you signed it.

Miss Goff. Miss Roberts.
Would you mind coming in please?

Mr. Taylor just put his signature to
this paper. Will you witness it please?

What's the matter?

-Well I...
-No ink in the pen?

No it's alright.

Thank you Miss Roberts, Miss Goff.
That will be all.

Now we go to Sans Souci

and you announce your
intention of leaving for good.

-For good?
-A precaution.

If you say you're going for good,
Evelyn can get legal action.

And then she won't have to wait
for another seven years.

-You've certainly been busy, haven't you?
-Yes, I have.

I guess that's all there is
to talk about.

-What about Calder?
-That's up to Malcolm.

-But he is your own brother.
-Since the estate will go to you

what you do with it will be your affair.

-I don't want it.
-That's between the two of you.

Of course if Malcolm should return,
then the estate is still legally his.

-Don't worry, I won't come back.
-Be careful, Malcolm. You shouldn't

let me hear you say that.

Because in court your statement would
constitute grants declaring you legally

-dead if you don't return, in say
even 2 years. -I know it.

I'll wait for you outside, Malcolm.

-Why are you doing this?
-Maybe because it's the only

-thing I can do.
-I don't believe it.

-I can't help that.
-Wait.

I don't want the money.
Calder can have it.

Don't be a fool.

Malcolm.

-Very good actor, Cummins.
-Swell. Academy award stuff.

In love with her?

-What's the matter?
-Nothing.

Would you mind opening the
gate please?

It's all clear now, isn't it
smart boy?

Cagle and Nadine. The two
of them working together.

But Nadine didn't know this.

All she saw was her chance to
double cross Cagle

while he was double crossing her.

There's no way out, is there
bright boy?

Go ahead, try it again.

Help! Help! Help!

Give up sucker, give up.

You might as well face it.
You're done for.

Thinking about Nadine?
I'm sorry

-I know how much you loved her.
-She is gone.

Yes. It was tragic. And convenient.

-for people who hated her. Evelyn.
-What do you mean?

-Oh nothing. Just imagination, that's all.
-You know something. Tell me.

-I didn't say anything. Forget it.
-You started to say something else.

There's nothing to say. Nadine's dead
and no one can do anything about it.

-Evelyn hated her, you said that.
-You knew that as well as I did.

Why should Nadine have an accident?
She's been there a hundred times before

and nothing ever happened.

That's right. It wasn't an accident.
It couldn't have been.

-Who is it?
-It's me Calder.

Come in.

-You're going away?
-Yes.

That'll leave me all alone here.

Don't stay here Calder. Leave
this place. It's evil.

No one could ever be happy here.

-When you going?
-Tonight. Will you call a cab for me?

I'll drive in. I'll take you
in to town.

No, that won't be necesary.
I can take a cab.

I wouldn't think of it.

-I'll meet you downstairs.
-Alright.

Before we start, I want
to go down to the cliffs.

-What for?
-I want to say goodbye to Nadine.

-Don't go there, Calder.
-I have to. Just once more.

Please come with me. I
don't want to go alone.

Hello, sheriff? This is Philip Cagle.
I'm at Sans Souci.

Look this may not mean
anything but I'm very worried.

Calder and Evelyn Taylor have disappeared.

He was acting very strangely.

When I last talked with him, he blamed
Mrs. Taylor for his wife's death.

I thought I calmed him down, but ..
what?

No, I have no idea where they've gone.

Yes. Good. Alright,
I'll wait here.

Calder, let's go back

I wonder what she thought about
when she..when she fell.

She didn't love me but
I loved her.

Yes, I know.

She shouldn't have died this way.

Tell me, why did you do it?

-Tell me why did you do it?
-No Calder, no.

-No, no. -Cagle told me. I never
knew but Cagle told me.

No Calder, no.

-What was the matter with him?
-Cagle told him I killed Nadine.

-Why did he tell him that?
-Because he wanted Calder to kill you.

-But why Malcolm?
-I'm not Malcolm.

-What?
-I said I'm not Malcolm.

-Then who are you?
-Well it doesn't matter now.

Come on, we gonna to find Cagle.

Who's there?

Who's there?

I wouldn't come any closer if
I were you, Cummins.

-I can kill you and get away with it.
-Just as you killed Malcolm Taylor.

As you killed Nadine. It
was pretty neat, wasn't it?

You and Nadine planned to
do away with Evelyn

but when you saw me in court
that day, you saw your chance

to double cross Nadine and
get control of the estate.

-All very pretty and neat.
-All very pretty but very hard to prove.

-Suppose I can prove it.
-You won't get the chance.

You called the sheriff, didn't you?
You wanted a nice neat package.

Calder kills Evelyn and
the sheriff gets Calder

and you got two birds with one stone.

Alright Cummins. You've been very handy.

-Evelyn.
-Look out Evelyn.

Now you know the whole story.

Well it's up to you, Mrs. Taylor.
If there is any attempt to defraud

-on his part.
-I don't think there was.

No complaint then?

No.

No complaint.

What're you going to do now?

Well I don't know. Look
for a job I guess.

Once you told me about a
man you knew.

A man who made a mistake.

How well did you know him?

-Much better now.
-I think I do too.

Maybe he is not a good
guy to know.

Maybe you'e not the best judge of that.

What's the matter?

-Don't be afraid of him.
-Be careful.

He was the only one who
knew you weren't Malcolm.

The only one I didn't fool.

And you're not fooling him now.

You said you weren't a good
guy to know. I don't believe that.

He doesn't either.
