1
00:01:09,819 --> 00:01:10,819
Good evening, Mr. West.

2
00:01:10,945 --> 00:01:11,737
Third-class London Bridge.

3
00:01:11,863 --> 00:01:12,780
Single or return?

4
00:01:12,906 --> 00:01:14,406
Oh, it doesn't matter, single.

5
00:01:19,788 --> 00:01:22,456
Quickly, quickly.

6
00:02:10,839 --> 00:02:14,883
He's dead. Must have
fallen from the train.

7
00:02:15,176 --> 00:02:16,844
Yeah, look at his head.

8
00:02:17,720 --> 00:02:20,013
You run back to the station
and tell 'em what happened,

9
00:02:20,140 --> 00:02:21,056
I'll stay here.

10
00:03:38,927 --> 00:03:41,053
It's a real pea souper.

11
00:03:45,058 --> 00:03:46,767
Nothing in the paper, Watson?

12
00:03:47,143 --> 00:03:50,103
No. There's another revolution
in South America,

13
00:03:50,271 --> 00:03:53,273
possible war in Africa
nothing of interest to you.

14
00:03:56,236 --> 00:03:58,946
The London Criminal is
certainly a dull fellow.

15
00:04:00,365 --> 00:04:03,951
A thief or a murderer could roam
London on a day like this

16
00:04:04,118 --> 00:04:07,120
as the tiger does the jungle,
unseen until he pounces,

17
00:04:08,289 --> 00:04:10,165
and then evident only to his victim.

18
00:04:11,125 --> 00:04:13,126
There are numerous petty thefts.

19
00:04:14,629 --> 00:04:18,715
Well, this great and somber stage is set
for something more worthy than that.

20
00:04:21,636 --> 00:04:24,721
It is fortunate for the community
that I am not a criminal.

21
00:04:24,931 --> 00:04:25,889
It is indeed.

22
00:04:26,808 --> 00:04:29,017
It is well they don't have days of fog
in the Latin countries

23
00:04:29,143 --> 00:04:31,019
the countries of assassination.

24
00:04:31,813 --> 00:04:32,562
For you, Mr. Holmes.

25
00:04:32,689 --> 00:04:33,438
Thank you.

26
00:04:33,982 --> 00:04:34,564
Mr. Holmes.

27
00:04:34,732 --> 00:04:37,401
Yes, I know. I apologize
for the state of my room.

28
00:04:38,486 --> 00:04:39,903
Well, what next?

29
00:04:40,989 --> 00:04:43,240
My brother Mycroft
is coming around.

30
00:04:43,366 --> 00:04:44,157
Oh, why not.

31
00:04:44,284 --> 00:04:45,409
Why not?

32
00:04:46,494 --> 00:04:49,496
As if you met a tram-car
coming down a country lane.

33
00:04:49,789 --> 00:04:52,082
Mycroft has his lines
and he runs on them.

34
00:04:52,959 --> 00:04:54,334
Pall Mall Lodgings,

35
00:04:54,502 --> 00:04:56,586
the Diogenes Club,
Whitehall, that's his cycle.

36
00:04:56,713 --> 00:04:58,338
Once and only once
has he ever been here.

37
00:04:58,506 --> 00:05:01,341
I mean what upheaval can
possibly have derailed him?

38
00:05:04,637 --> 00:05:08,098
Must see you over Cadogan West.
Coming at once...

39
00:05:09,183 --> 00:05:10,183
I've heard the name.

40
00:05:10,351 --> 00:05:12,144
That recalls nothing to my mind.

41
00:05:12,520 --> 00:05:16,356
Mycroft breaking out of this erratic
fashion, it's extraordinary.

42
00:05:16,566 --> 00:05:19,860
Watson, you do know
what Mycroft is.

43
00:05:20,194 --> 00:05:23,196
I seem to remember about the time of
the affair of the Greek interpreter.

44
00:05:23,364 --> 00:05:26,325
You told me that he had some small
office under the British government.

45
00:05:27,076 --> 00:05:28,744
He wasn't doing quite
so well in those days.

46
00:05:29,537 --> 00:05:32,914
His position is unique.
He's made it for himself.

47
00:05:33,041 --> 00:05:35,500
There's never been anything like it
before nor will be again.

48
00:05:35,710 --> 00:05:38,211
He is the tidiest and
most orderly brain

49
00:05:38,504 --> 00:05:42,299
with the greatest capacity
for storing facts of any man living.

50
00:05:43,718 --> 00:05:45,886
The conclusions of every
government department

51
00:05:46,054 --> 00:05:48,805
that passed through him.
He is the central exchange

52
00:05:49,223 --> 00:05:53,143
which makes out the balance.
All other men are specialists.

53
00:05:53,269 --> 00:05:56,897
His specialism is omniscience.

54
00:05:58,441 --> 00:06:03,028
Time and time again, Mycroft's word
has decided national policy.

55
00:06:03,946 --> 00:06:07,282
Then Jupiter himself
is descending upon us today.

56
00:06:07,408 --> 00:06:10,827
Yes, indeed
No trace of Cadogan West.

57
00:06:10,953 --> 00:06:11,745
West

58
00:06:13,581 --> 00:06:17,209
I have it. Yes, Cadogan West.

59
00:06:17,794 --> 00:06:22,547
Cadogan West was the young man who
was found dead on the underground

60
00:06:22,715 --> 00:06:23,673
on Tuesday morning.

61
00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:26,760
Oh, yes, yes, yes, yes. It was
a featureless case as I remember.

62
00:06:27,261 --> 00:06:30,639
Young man killed falling from a moving
train, no robbery, no violence.

63
00:06:31,057 --> 00:06:34,142
Watson, Brother Mycroft.

64
00:06:37,105 --> 00:06:39,815
That looks like our old friend
Inspector Bradstreet.

65
00:06:40,608 --> 00:06:43,318
Why should he bring
a policeman with him?

66
00:06:45,613 --> 00:06:47,364
Ah, here we are.

67
00:06:47,490 --> 00:06:53,036
Cadogan West, Clerk at the
Woolwich Arsenal, 27, unmarried.

68
00:06:53,162 --> 00:06:55,956
Government employee. Behold a link
with my brother Mycroft.

69
00:06:58,459 --> 00:06:59,501
Mycroft.

70
00:07:00,878 --> 00:07:03,797
Ah, Dr...

71
00:07:04,173 --> 00:07:04,965
Watson.

72
00:07:05,383 --> 00:07:07,384
Watson, you know Bradstreet.

73
00:07:07,510 --> 00:07:08,301
Holmes, Dr. Watson.

74
00:07:08,469 --> 00:07:12,722
Cadogan West, the most annoying
business, Sherlock.

75
00:07:13,141 --> 00:07:15,976
I extremely dislike
altering my habits

76
00:07:16,269 --> 00:07:21,356
with the powers that be would broke
no denial. In the present state of Siam

77
00:07:21,482 --> 00:07:24,401
it's most awkward
I should be away from the office.

78
00:07:24,944 --> 00:07:27,154
But it is a real crisis Sherlock.

79
00:07:27,321 --> 00:07:30,031
I've never seen the
Prime Minister so upset

80
00:07:30,533 --> 00:07:32,492
and as to the Admiralty

81
00:07:33,119 --> 00:07:36,288
buzzing like an
overturned beehive.

82
00:07:36,914 --> 00:07:38,999
Do sit down, Bradstreet.

83
00:07:40,126 --> 00:07:43,170
Well, there's nothing unusual
reported in the newspapers.

84
00:07:44,088 --> 00:07:45,589
I should hope not.

85
00:07:47,383 --> 00:07:50,010
The wretched youth,
had the plans

86
00:07:50,136 --> 00:07:54,473
of the Bruce Partington
submarine in his pocket.

87
00:07:57,810 --> 00:07:59,186
Well, you must have heard of it.

88
00:07:59,353 --> 00:08:00,103
Only by name.

89
00:08:00,354 --> 00:08:03,940
Its importance can
hardly be exaggerated.

90
00:08:04,650 --> 00:08:09,237
It has been the most closely
guarded of all government secrets.

91
00:08:09,363 --> 00:08:11,364
You may take it from
me that navel warfare

92
00:08:11,491 --> 00:08:17,454
becomes impossible within the radius
of a Bruce Partington operation.

93
00:08:19,665 --> 00:08:22,209
So, what sort of plans
are we talking about?

94
00:08:22,543 --> 00:08:24,961
Extremely intricate ones,
Sherlock.

95
00:08:25,379 --> 00:08:26,922
Some 30 different pages,

96
00:08:27,048 --> 00:08:29,299
each one essential to
the working of the whole.

97
00:08:29,425 --> 00:08:31,760
Where are the plans
normally kept?

98
00:08:31,886 --> 00:08:34,596
In an elaborate safe
in a confidential office

99
00:08:34,722 --> 00:08:39,226
adjoining the arsenal of Woolwich
with burglar proof doors and windows.

100
00:08:40,478 --> 00:08:44,189
If the chief instructor of the Navy
himself desired to consult the plans,

101
00:08:44,315 --> 00:08:46,608
he would have to go
to Woolwich to do so.

102
00:08:48,027 --> 00:08:50,195
To think they should
turn up in the pocket

103
00:08:50,321 --> 00:08:54,157
of a dead Junior Clerk in the heart
of London is simply awful.

104
00:08:54,408 --> 00:08:55,784
Have you recovered the papers?

105
00:08:55,910 --> 00:08:59,829
No, Sherlock. No.
That's the pinch. We have not.

106
00:09:00,623 --> 00:09:03,833
Some ten papers were
taken from Woolwich.

107
00:09:04,085 --> 00:09:07,963
Only seven were found
in the pocket of Cadogan West.

108
00:09:08,297 --> 00:09:10,757
The other three are missing,
gone, vanished, stolen.

109
00:09:12,176 --> 00:09:14,052
You must drop everything, Sherlock.

110
00:09:14,178 --> 00:09:18,640
Never mind your usual petty
puzzles of the police courts.

111
00:09:18,766 --> 00:09:24,396
This is a real international crisis
that you have to solve.

112
00:09:25,856 --> 00:09:29,609
Well, there are some points of
interest in the case, I suppose.

113
00:09:32,154 --> 00:09:33,488
I'll be pleased to look into it.

114
00:09:35,408 --> 00:09:38,910
Bradstreet, now, who held
the keys to that safe?

115
00:09:39,787 --> 00:09:41,871
There are two sets of keys.

116
00:09:42,415 --> 00:09:44,082
Sir James Walter holds one set.

117
00:09:44,208 --> 00:09:46,626
He is the actual official
guardian of the papers.

118
00:09:46,794 --> 00:09:49,963
A man grown gray in the
service of the State,

119
00:09:50,339 --> 00:09:54,926
a favored guest in the most exalted
houses. His patriotism is above suspicion.

120
00:09:55,595 --> 00:09:56,636
And the other keys?

121
00:09:56,762 --> 00:09:59,639
A Mr. Sidney Johnson,
a Senior Clerk and Draughtsman.

122
00:09:59,765 --> 00:10:03,184
A silent morose man,
not popular but a hard worker.

123
00:10:03,311 --> 00:10:05,312
His wife corroborates
his account of the matter.

124
00:10:05,438 --> 00:10:06,980
He was at home the
whole of Monday night

125
00:10:07,106 --> 00:10:09,316
and the keys never left
the watch-chain upon which they hang.

126
00:10:09,483 --> 00:10:12,068
What sort of fellow
was this man West?

127
00:10:12,194 --> 00:10:15,488
Hot-headed, rather impetuous,

128
00:10:16,032 --> 00:10:19,075
his duties brought him into
daily contact with the plans.

129
00:10:19,201 --> 00:10:20,118
Who locked them up that night?

130
00:10:20,244 --> 00:10:21,286
Johnson, the Senior Clerk.

131
00:10:21,454 --> 00:10:23,580
But yet they were found on
the person of the Junior Clerk.

132
00:10:23,706 --> 00:10:24,956
Well, I mean that sounds
final, does it not?

133
00:10:25,082 --> 00:10:27,667
Yeah, but why would he take them?

134
00:10:27,835 --> 00:10:31,338
Reason why he should take them
up to London except to sell them.

135
00:10:31,672 --> 00:10:32,339
Nope.

136
00:10:32,715 --> 00:10:35,467
Then we must take that
as our working hypothesis.

137
00:10:36,469 --> 00:10:39,012
West, could he have done this

138
00:10:40,097 --> 00:10:42,724
with false keys? He opens
the safe, takes out the papers,

139
00:10:42,850 --> 00:10:44,976
goes off to London to
see a foreign agent.

140
00:10:46,187 --> 00:10:50,023
He has to have 'em back before morning
or the loss will be discovered.

141
00:10:50,691 --> 00:10:53,234
He took away ten.
Seven were in his pocket,

142
00:10:54,403 --> 00:10:55,987
What became of the other three?

143
00:10:56,197 --> 00:10:58,365
He certainly wouldn't leave
them of his own free will.

144
00:10:58,491 --> 00:11:00,575
It all seems perfectly clear to me.

145
00:11:01,494 --> 00:11:02,869
As you say, Mr. Holmes,

146
00:11:03,287 --> 00:11:05,705
West stole the plans
in order to sell them.

147
00:11:06,666 --> 00:11:09,918
He met the agent, but they
could not agree as to a price.

148
00:11:10,920 --> 00:11:13,213
So West returned home again
but the agent followed him.

149
00:11:13,964 --> 00:11:16,257
In the train,
the agent murdered him,

150
00:11:16,717 --> 00:11:18,802
took the more essential papers,

151
00:11:19,053 --> 00:11:21,763
and threw the body from
the railway carriage.

152
00:11:22,682 --> 00:11:24,140
Now, that would explain
everything, would it not?

153
00:11:24,350 --> 00:11:28,269
It's good, that's very good
Bradstreet.

154
00:11:28,562 --> 00:11:29,979
Your theory holds together.

155
00:11:30,398 --> 00:11:32,315
But if this is true then
the case is at an end.

156
00:11:32,566 --> 00:11:34,401
On the one hand the traitor
is dead, on the other,

157
00:11:34,527 --> 00:11:36,903
the plans of the Bruce Partington
submarine are presumably

158
00:11:37,071 --> 00:11:38,947
somewhere on the continent.
I mean what is there for me to do?

159
00:11:39,740 --> 00:11:42,909
To act Sherlock, to act.

160
00:11:44,620 --> 00:11:47,747
All my instincts are
against this explanation

161
00:11:48,124 --> 00:11:52,502
and yours too, I think.
We are not brothers for nothing.

162
00:11:52,753 --> 00:11:55,422
Use your powers. Go to the scene.

163
00:11:55,548 --> 00:11:58,925
Question the people concerned.
Leave no stone unturned.

164
00:11:59,260 --> 00:12:00,510
In all of your career,

165
00:12:00,845 --> 00:12:03,930
you'll never have a greater chance
of serving your country.

166
00:12:04,807 --> 00:12:06,099
If you on your part

167
00:12:06,225 --> 00:12:07,809
will be kind enough to
send me a complete list

168
00:12:07,935 --> 00:12:10,729
of foreign spies and international
agents known to be in England

169
00:12:11,147 --> 00:12:12,564
and their full address.

170
00:12:13,524 --> 00:12:15,024
And then we on our part

171
00:12:15,151 --> 00:12:18,194
can begin our investigation by
a visit to Longhead Station.

172
00:12:18,320 --> 00:12:19,195
Bradstreet.

173
00:12:19,405 --> 00:12:20,405
Watson.

174
00:12:20,865 --> 00:12:23,199
Mrs. Hudson, we're leaving.

175
00:12:39,633 --> 00:12:41,050
When was the body found?

176
00:12:41,177 --> 00:12:43,636
Near enough to six o'clock, sir,
Tuesday morning.

177
00:12:44,013 --> 00:12:46,222
He must have fallen from the train
some time Monday night.

178
00:12:46,390 --> 00:12:48,683
Have the carriages been examined
for any signs of violence?

179
00:12:48,809 --> 00:12:50,894
No such trace of
violence had been found.

180
00:12:51,020 --> 00:12:53,563
No report of a door found open?

181
00:12:55,816 --> 00:12:58,860
We can tell the approximate time that
he entered the train from his ticket.

182
00:12:59,945 --> 00:13:01,571
There was no ticket on the body.

183
00:13:03,783 --> 00:13:05,241
That is really very singular.

184
00:13:06,368 --> 00:13:08,203
Then in my experience
it's not possible

185
00:13:08,370 --> 00:13:10,163
to reach the platform of the
Metropolitan Line

186
00:13:10,289 --> 00:13:13,082
without exhibiting one's ticket,
is that not so?

187
00:13:13,459 --> 00:13:14,334
Quite correct, sir,

188
00:13:14,460 --> 00:13:17,170
Surely, the murderer would
have removed the ticket

189
00:13:17,338 --> 00:13:20,673
before throwing West from the train
so as not to reveal the-

190
00:13:20,841 --> 00:13:23,051
name of the station nearest
his place of residents.

191
00:13:23,344 --> 00:13:24,677
I think the doctor has it.

192
00:13:24,887 --> 00:13:29,015
What else did he have in his possession
besides the fabled papers and no ticket?

193
00:13:29,183 --> 00:13:32,602
Usual things, pocketbook,
notecase, checkbook.

194
00:13:32,853 --> 00:13:36,773
Oh, and two tickets
for the Dress Circle

195
00:13:36,941 --> 00:13:39,359
of the Woolwich Theater
for that very evening.

196
00:13:40,528 --> 00:13:43,530
It appears that West was to
have attended the performance

197
00:13:43,656 --> 00:13:47,283
in the accompany of his fiancee,
Ms. Violet Westbury.

198
00:13:48,035 --> 00:13:50,286
She was the last person to see him
alive on that fatal night.

199
00:13:51,747 --> 00:13:54,374
They were walking to the theater
together in the park,

200
00:13:55,292 --> 00:13:56,751
when he suddenly left her.

201
00:13:57,044 --> 00:13:58,211
Suddenly without explanation.

202
00:14:01,048 --> 00:14:03,341
There appears to be no
bleeding on the line?

203
00:14:03,467 --> 00:14:05,468
Well, there was hardly any trace
of blood to be found.

204
00:14:05,594 --> 00:14:07,470
As I gather, there was a
considerable wound

205
00:14:07,596 --> 00:14:09,764
consistent with a man
falling from a moving train.

206
00:14:09,974 --> 00:14:11,724
Well, it was a terrible thing to see.
Said the-

207
00:14:11,892 --> 00:14:14,143
head was knocked
right in and the bone crushed.

208
00:14:14,270 --> 00:14:16,604
And yet, there was no
great external injury.

209
00:14:16,856 --> 00:14:19,190
Well, I would expect some blood.

210
00:14:21,485 --> 00:14:25,238
So the line runs northeast.

211
00:14:25,573 --> 00:14:27,407
Yes, the track divides here sir,

212
00:14:27,575 --> 00:14:29,701
and there's a branch line
goes south under the river

213
00:14:29,827 --> 00:14:31,661
to Rotherhive and New Cross.

214
00:14:33,539 --> 00:14:42,130
The points.

215
00:14:43,507 --> 00:14:46,885
I suppose there are no great number
of points in the system such as this?

216
00:14:47,011 --> 00:14:48,469
There are very few, sir.

217
00:14:50,180 --> 00:14:50,805
Points

218
00:14:53,475 --> 00:14:58,605
and a curve,
oh by Jove, if it were only so.

219
00:14:59,523 --> 00:15:00,315
What is it?

220
00:15:03,110 --> 00:15:04,110
Holmes, do you have a clue?

221
00:15:04,278 --> 00:15:08,156
Well, it's an idea Bradstreet,
an indication no more.

222
00:15:08,782 --> 00:15:10,783
But the case certainly
grows in interest.

223
00:15:12,411 --> 00:15:16,497
It's unique, perfectly unique.

224
00:15:17,333 --> 00:15:18,708
And yet why not?

225
00:15:29,803 --> 00:15:30,511
Cab!

226
00:15:31,889 --> 00:15:34,766
There is material here,
Watson, there is scope.

227
00:15:34,934 --> 00:15:37,435
I was dull indeed not to
see it's possibilities.

228
00:15:37,561 --> 00:15:39,103
Well I confess it's dull to me.

229
00:15:39,229 --> 00:15:40,313
And to me also,

230
00:15:40,940 --> 00:15:44,108
but I now have a hold of an idea
which may lead us far,

231
00:15:46,236 --> 00:15:47,862
Now I think, Sir James,

232
00:15:48,030 --> 00:15:50,531
the guardian of the plans
claims our first attention.

233
00:15:51,492 --> 00:15:52,492
Mumstead Hall.

234
00:16:03,087 --> 00:16:04,128
Well, Holmes?

235
00:16:07,299 --> 00:16:08,216
Your idea?

236
00:16:08,550 --> 00:16:09,342
Oh, yes.

237
00:16:11,220 --> 00:16:12,804
The man West was killed

238
00:16:12,930 --> 00:16:16,516
not by falling or being
thrown from a moving train

239
00:16:18,018 --> 00:16:19,727
He met his death elsewhere

240
00:16:20,187 --> 00:16:23,272
and his body was on the
roof of the carriage.

241
00:16:23,524 --> 00:16:24,565
On the roof?

242
00:16:24,692 --> 00:16:25,858
Well, consider the facts.

243
00:16:26,860 --> 00:16:29,570
Is it a coincidence that the body
was found in the very place

244
00:16:29,697 --> 00:16:33,866
where the train brakes and sways
as it comes round on the points?

245
00:16:35,035 --> 00:16:38,037
The sudden slowing would affect
no object inside the carriage

246
00:16:38,163 --> 00:16:40,456
but an object such as
a body on the roof.

247
00:16:42,710 --> 00:16:44,210
And there's the
question of the blood.

248
00:16:44,378 --> 00:16:47,880
Of course, there was no bleeding on
the line if the body bled elsewhere.

249
00:16:48,549 --> 00:16:51,801
Each fact is suggestive in itself.
Together they have a cumulative force.

250
00:16:51,927 --> 00:16:53,761
Yes, and the ticket too.

251
00:16:54,054 --> 00:16:55,596
That would explain
the absence of the ticket.

252
00:16:55,723 --> 00:16:57,432
Watson, it all fits together.

253
00:17:06,650 --> 00:17:07,817
Please wait.

254
00:17:19,747 --> 00:17:22,915
Come in please gentlemen.
We were expecting you.

255
00:17:40,434 --> 00:17:41,893
Ah, gentlemen.

256
00:17:42,853 --> 00:17:43,770
Thank you, Baines.

257
00:17:43,896 --> 00:17:44,729
Thank you, sir.

258
00:17:45,689 --> 00:17:48,733
If you follow me
the body is upstairs.

259
00:17:48,859 --> 00:17:50,443
But wait, one moment.

260
00:17:52,446 --> 00:17:53,946
Are you not the undertakers?

261
00:17:56,575 --> 00:17:57,992
Excuse me, Sir James.

262
00:17:58,202 --> 00:18:01,788
Uh, I am Dr. Watson and, urn,
this is Mr. Sherlock Holmes.

263
00:18:03,165 --> 00:18:04,123
Good heavens.

264
00:18:04,500 --> 00:18:07,960
We are helping the authorities
in the case of the missing papers.

265
00:18:09,922 --> 00:18:13,216
My brother, Sir James Walter,
died this morning.

266
00:18:14,134 --> 00:18:16,344
I am Colonel Valentine Walter.

267
00:18:18,972 --> 00:18:21,516
Please gentlemen, come here.

268
00:18:35,489 --> 00:18:37,657
We are very sorry, sir,

269
00:18:37,783 --> 00:18:41,327
Thank you. I'm afraid it has
been a great shock.

270
00:18:43,288 --> 00:18:47,166
May I ask how did your brother die?

271
00:18:47,501 --> 00:18:51,212
It was this horrible scandal.
My brother is...

272
00:18:53,340 --> 00:18:55,591
my brother was a man
of very sensitive honor.

273
00:18:56,009 --> 00:18:59,053
He was fiercely proud of
the efficiency of his department.

274
00:19:00,013 --> 00:19:02,598
The theft of the plans
was a crushing blow.

275
00:19:03,684 --> 00:19:04,976
It broke his heart.

276
00:19:05,352 --> 00:19:09,147
We were hoping Sir James
might have been able to help.

277
00:19:09,356 --> 00:19:12,775
I assure you it was as much
a mystery to him as it to all of us.

278
00:19:13,735 --> 00:19:16,779
Naturally he had no doubt
that West was guilty,

279
00:19:16,905 --> 00:19:19,490
but why he should have
done such a thing.

280
00:19:20,701 --> 00:19:22,535
Now, of course, we
shall never know.

281
00:19:24,538 --> 00:19:27,874
So, you can turn a
light on the matter?

282
00:19:28,167 --> 00:19:28,833
Me?

283
00:19:29,960 --> 00:19:33,212
I'm afraid I know nothing
say what I've read or heard.

284
00:19:34,089 --> 00:19:35,548
And you never meet Cadogan West?

285
00:19:35,716 --> 00:19:39,010
No. No, I have not been back
in the country long.

286
00:19:39,636 --> 00:19:42,555
My brother's work was of a
very highly-confidential nature.

287
00:19:42,723 --> 00:19:44,390
He did not discuss it with me.

288
00:19:47,436 --> 00:19:49,520
Gentlemen, I do not
wish to discourteous

289
00:19:49,646 --> 00:19:52,398
but we are much
disturbed at present.

290
00:19:53,233 --> 00:19:55,526
I must ask you to hasten
this interview to an end.

291
00:19:56,695 --> 00:19:59,238
Yes, we're sorry to have
caused you so much trouble.

292
00:20:12,753 --> 00:20:15,087
That's an unexpected development.

293
00:20:15,505 --> 00:20:16,505
Heart failure.

294
00:20:18,425 --> 00:20:22,011
Or suicide. Now for Miss. Westbury.

295
00:20:22,554 --> 00:20:24,055
Is that the dead man's fiancee?

296
00:20:24,223 --> 00:20:24,764
Yes.

297
00:20:47,621 --> 00:20:50,706
I cannot explain it, Mr. Holmes.

298
00:20:51,833 --> 00:20:54,293
I haven't closed my
eyes since the tragedy,

299
00:20:55,003 --> 00:20:59,799
thinking and thinking and thinking
what the true meaning of it can be.

300
00:21:02,135 --> 00:21:03,135
Do sit down.

301
00:21:11,478 --> 00:21:18,526
Arthur was the most single-minded,
chivalrous, patriotic man on earth.

302
00:21:19,444 --> 00:21:22,655
He would have cut off his right-hand
rather than sell a State secret

303
00:21:22,781 --> 00:21:24,031
confided to his keeping.

304
00:21:24,658 --> 00:21:29,287
It's absurd, impossible, preposterous
to anyone who knew him.

305
00:21:29,413 --> 00:21:32,123
The facts, Ms. Westbury.

306
00:21:32,291 --> 00:21:33,791
Was he want of money?

307
00:21:34,084 --> 00:21:39,797
No. His needs were very simple
and his salary was sufficient.

308
00:21:40,257 --> 00:21:44,176
He'd saved a few hundreds and
we were to marry at the new year.

309
00:21:44,386 --> 00:21:48,180
Was there any sign of
mental excitement?

310
00:21:49,516 --> 00:21:52,226
Come, Ms. Westbury,
be absolutely frank with us.

311
00:21:54,521 --> 00:21:59,150
I had a feeling
there was something on his mind.

312
00:22:00,277 --> 00:22:01,068
How long?

313
00:22:01,695 --> 00:22:05,656
Only the last week or two.
Once I asked him about it.

314
00:22:06,616 --> 00:22:09,869
It is too serious to speak
about even to you, he said.

315
00:22:10,370 --> 00:22:14,206
Go on, Ms. Westbury.
Even if it seems to turn against him.

316
00:22:15,167 --> 00:22:17,043
We cannot say where
it might lead us.

317
00:22:18,712 --> 00:22:22,548
He spoke one evening
about... a secret.

318
00:22:24,301 --> 00:22:25,801
I think he said that no doubt

319
00:22:25,927 --> 00:22:28,679
foreign spies would pay
a great deal to have it.

320
00:22:29,056 --> 00:22:31,474
He said that we were slack
about such matters

321
00:22:31,600 --> 00:22:35,436
and it would be easy for a traitor
to get hold of the plans.

322
00:22:37,147 --> 00:22:43,903
Oh, Mr. Holmes, if you could only,
only save his honor.

323
00:22:44,780 --> 00:22:46,405
It was so much to him.

324
00:22:49,910 --> 00:22:50,910
I'll do what I can.

325
00:22:52,579 --> 00:22:54,705
Now, please tell us
about that last evening.

326
00:22:58,043 --> 00:22:59,460
It was Monday night

327
00:23:01,254 --> 00:23:04,131
and we were to go to the theater.

328
00:23:16,520 --> 00:23:17,395
Violet,

329
00:23:17,896 --> 00:23:19,355
I'm afraid I've got to leave you.

330
00:23:19,898 --> 00:23:20,689
Leave me?

331
00:23:21,191 --> 00:23:26,779
It's very, very important.
I'm sorry. You better go home.

332
00:23:27,447 --> 00:23:29,490
Go home immediately, please.

333
00:24:21,877 --> 00:24:23,586
It was just here, Mr. Holmes.

334
00:24:24,671 --> 00:24:26,922
And he disappeared
without any explanation?

335
00:24:27,174 --> 00:24:27,840
Yes.

336
00:24:29,509 --> 00:24:31,802
You are sure this
is the exact spot?

337
00:24:32,179 --> 00:24:37,183
Yes. We often used to meet here
when we were courting.

338
00:24:38,935 --> 00:24:41,854
You see that's the building
where he used to work.

339
00:24:45,901 --> 00:24:47,860
That was the last time I saw him.

340
00:24:48,695 --> 00:24:52,698
Watson, will you be so kind as to
take Miss Westbury home in a cab.

341
00:25:11,718 --> 00:25:14,178
Oh, it's bad, it's really bad.

342
00:25:14,471 --> 00:25:15,471
Of course, Mr. Jones.

343
00:25:15,597 --> 00:25:17,431
The whole place is disorganized.

344
00:25:18,308 --> 00:25:23,312
West dead. Now, the Chief dead.
Our papers stolen.

345
00:25:25,106 --> 00:25:28,067
And yet, when I closed this
office on Monday evening,

346
00:25:28,235 --> 00:25:30,236
we were as efficient
as any in the service.

347
00:25:30,362 --> 00:25:32,238
What hour was the office
closed on Monday?

348
00:25:32,656 --> 00:25:33,322
At 5:00.

349
00:25:33,448 --> 00:25:34,156
Did you close it?

350
00:25:34,407 --> 00:25:35,824
I'm always the last man out.

351
00:25:35,951 --> 00:25:37,701
Is there a night watchman
to the building?

352
00:25:37,827 --> 00:25:41,497
There is. But he has other
departments to look after as well.

353
00:25:42,290 --> 00:25:46,794
He's an old soldier,
A most trustworthy man.

354
00:25:47,546 --> 00:25:49,004
He didn't see anything that evening.

355
00:25:49,172 --> 00:25:50,005
Thank you.

356
00:25:56,429 --> 00:25:58,430
When you closed the office,
where were the plans?

357
00:25:58,682 --> 00:26:01,600
In that safe.
I put them there myself.

358
00:26:10,277 --> 00:26:13,070
If Cadogan West was to enter
the office after hours,

359
00:26:13,863 --> 00:26:17,199
he would need three keys, would he not,
before he could reach these papers.

360
00:26:17,325 --> 00:26:22,371
Yes, a key to the outer door, a key
to the office and a key of the safe

361
00:26:23,248 --> 00:26:25,958
And only you and
Sir James Walter had those keys.

362
00:26:26,501 --> 00:26:27,459
Yes, indeed.

363
00:26:28,295 --> 00:26:31,964
Sir James kept all three keys
on one ring. They never left him.

364
00:26:32,132 --> 00:26:34,174
And, of course, your keys
left your possession.

365
00:26:34,593 --> 00:26:35,175
Never.

366
00:26:35,552 --> 00:26:38,846
Sir, Cadogan West is the culprit.
He must have had duplicates.

367
00:26:39,097 --> 00:26:40,973
Oh, he's the culprit all right.

368
00:26:42,142 --> 00:26:46,145
It's dreadful to think that West of all
people should have done such a thing.

369
00:26:46,813 --> 00:26:48,314
You're sure of his guilt?

370
00:26:48,815 --> 00:26:50,107
I see no other way.

371
00:26:50,609 --> 00:26:52,943
He was getting married.
He wanted the money.

372
00:26:53,361 --> 00:26:55,404
Oh yes, he's your man.

373
00:26:56,823 --> 00:26:58,115
Mr. Johnson,

374
00:26:58,617 --> 00:27:05,623
if someone desired to sell the plans
surely it would be easier to make copies

375
00:27:06,416 --> 00:27:07,750
than to take the originals.

376
00:27:08,001 --> 00:27:09,960
It would need considerable
technical knowledge.

377
00:27:10,086 --> 00:27:11,003
May I see these?

378
00:27:15,175 --> 00:27:18,719
And, of course, you and West and
Sir James Walter have that knowledge.

379
00:27:19,012 --> 00:27:22,473
That may be so, but don't try to
drag me into this matter, Mr. Holmes.

380
00:27:23,058 --> 00:27:24,600
The plans were found on West.

381
00:27:24,726 --> 00:27:28,562
Well, it is certainly singular that he
should risk taking the originals

382
00:27:28,688 --> 00:27:30,439
when he could have safely
taken copies.

383
00:27:30,607 --> 00:27:31,982
Perhaps it was a matter of time.

384
00:27:32,108 --> 00:27:33,317
Oh, yes, time.

385
00:27:36,905 --> 00:27:40,908
Now, three plans are missing
I understand, they are the vital ones.

386
00:27:41,076 --> 00:27:41,784
That is so.

387
00:27:42,702 --> 00:27:44,912
Now, someone holding
those three papers,

388
00:27:45,038 --> 00:27:47,706
I mean, could they construct
the Bruce Partington Submarine?

389
00:27:51,461 --> 00:27:54,004
I told the Admiralty that
I thought it was possible,

390
00:27:54,130 --> 00:27:56,090
but today I'm not so sure.

391
00:27:57,592 --> 00:28:02,429
These all important double-valves
with the automatic self-adjusting slots

392
00:28:02,847 --> 00:28:07,393
are drawn only on this plan
which has been returned.

393
00:28:07,644 --> 00:28:09,603
Would you be so kind as to
close those window shutters

394
00:28:09,729 --> 00:28:12,064
exactly as they were
on Monday night.

395
00:28:12,565 --> 00:28:13,732
Window shutters, certainly.

396
00:28:32,419 --> 00:28:33,585
Thank you so much.

397
00:28:43,221 --> 00:28:44,096
Yes.

398
00:28:51,312 --> 00:28:53,105
I think I'll take a little stroll outside.

399
00:28:53,273 --> 00:28:55,524
Oh, please don't trouble yourself.
I can find my own way.

400
00:29:26,389 --> 00:29:27,473
Would you please wait.

401
00:29:31,269 --> 00:29:31,977
Holmes.

402
00:29:32,145 --> 00:29:32,811
Watson.

403
00:29:45,158 --> 00:29:48,577
Look at this.
The bushes have been broken.

404
00:29:49,829 --> 00:29:51,663
Now look at the windows behind me.

405
00:29:53,500 --> 00:29:55,501
The shutters don't
meet in the center.

406
00:29:57,253 --> 00:29:59,630
As you say, don't meet.

407
00:30:00,507 --> 00:30:02,299
Interesting, don't you think?

408
00:30:10,058 --> 00:30:13,018
8:15, the London Bridge. Yes, I'm sure.

409
00:30:13,144 --> 00:30:15,103
You definitely recognize
him as Cadogan West?

410
00:30:15,230 --> 00:30:17,856
Oh, yes, definitely.
I knew him well, sir,

411
00:30:18,566 --> 00:30:20,400
He was an old acquaintance.

412
00:30:20,985 --> 00:30:24,196
Hardly a week went by that we didn't
pass the time of day together.

413
00:30:24,989 --> 00:30:26,865
It's hard to believe, isn't it?

414
00:30:27,242 --> 00:30:29,701
Yeah. I was saying to the wife
early on Sunday night.

415
00:30:30,245 --> 00:30:31,995
No, I'm a liar, it was Saturday.

416
00:30:32,497 --> 00:30:37,501
I said there is no safer railway
than the London Metropolitan.

417
00:30:40,213 --> 00:30:43,674
Did Mr. West seem to
be following anyone?

418
00:30:44,217 --> 00:30:49,054
Not that I saw, Mr. Holmes,
but then I don't see everything.

419
00:30:49,347 --> 00:30:51,557
There was really thick fog that night.

420
00:30:52,725 --> 00:30:54,184
But one thing I will say.

421
00:30:54,936 --> 00:30:59,731
Mr. West wasn't his usual self.
He was nervous, excited.

422
00:31:00,400 --> 00:31:03,235
I tell you this gentleman,
his hand was shaking so bad.

423
00:31:03,361 --> 00:31:05,445
I had to open up his change.

424
00:31:05,780 --> 00:31:08,323
Well, I mean that speaks
for itself. Doesn't it?

425
00:31:09,075 --> 00:31:11,618
Our train. Forgive us.

426
00:31:12,912 --> 00:31:13,745
Come Watson.

427
00:31:25,675 --> 00:31:26,758
Come in.

428
00:31:28,595 --> 00:31:35,934
Mr. Holmes.

429
00:31:36,102 --> 00:31:36,768
Yes.

430
00:31:37,145 --> 00:31:41,106
Whilst you were away, a message
came for you from the government.

431
00:31:41,274 --> 00:31:41,815
From the government?

432
00:31:41,941 --> 00:31:44,776
An official gentlemen
in a special carriage.

433
00:31:45,236 --> 00:31:47,821
He said "I wasn't to let this
out of my sight"

434
00:31:47,947 --> 00:31:49,990
"until I placed it into
your own hands."

435
00:31:50,617 --> 00:31:54,828
Mrs. Hudson, you are
a most faithful watchdog.

436
00:31:58,666 --> 00:32:00,167
It's from my brother Mycroft.

437
00:32:01,169 --> 00:32:04,963
He writes like a drunken crab.
You better read it,

438
00:32:05,340 --> 00:32:08,508
Doctors are more used to hieroglyphics
than normal human beings.

439
00:32:10,345 --> 00:32:13,847
Oh, can't read the first bit.
Something about "small find",

440
00:32:14,140 --> 00:32:15,307
"very big affair".

441
00:32:15,892 --> 00:32:18,310
Ah, here we are.
"Only men were considering"

442
00:32:18,561 --> 00:32:19,853
"Adolph Mayer"...

443
00:32:19,979 --> 00:32:24,566
Great George Street.
Doubt it's him, it's not his style.

444
00:32:24,901 --> 00:32:26,360
Oh, Mrs. Hudson.

445
00:32:30,281 --> 00:32:35,202
Louis... Louis La Rothiere.
Campden Mansion, Notting Hill.

446
00:32:35,328 --> 00:32:38,664
And that's another old friend. Mrs.
Hudson, you're hideously in the way.

447
00:32:38,831 --> 00:32:41,833
I'm sorry sir but I only
have one pair of hands...

448
00:32:42,001 --> 00:32:43,293
Please disappear.

449
00:32:44,587 --> 00:32:45,921
Right, Watson.

450
00:32:46,839 --> 00:32:52,135
Ah, "Hugo Oberstein,
13 Coffield Gardens, Kensington."

451
00:32:52,929 --> 00:32:56,974
Uh, "known to be in town on Monday.
Now reported to have left."

452
00:32:57,392 --> 00:33:00,602
"The Cabinet awaits your final
report with the utmost anxiety."

453
00:33:01,312 --> 00:33:05,065
"The whole force of the State is
at your back if you should need it."

454
00:33:05,692 --> 00:33:06,400
"Mycroft."

455
00:33:06,776 --> 00:33:11,238
All the queens' horses and all the queens'
men cannot avail us in this matter.

456
00:33:17,537 --> 00:33:18,829
Coffield Gardens.

457
00:33:23,501 --> 00:33:25,168
Well, well.

458
00:33:26,963 --> 00:33:28,088
What have you found?

459
00:33:29,173 --> 00:33:31,425
Things are turning a
little in our direction.

460
00:33:33,136 --> 00:33:35,971
Now I really believe we're going to
pull it off after all.

461
00:33:41,519 --> 00:33:42,769
I'm going out.

462
00:33:43,896 --> 00:33:44,563
When will you be back?

463
00:33:44,731 --> 00:33:47,357
I have no idea but I promise
I will do nothing serious

464
00:33:47,483 --> 00:33:50,777
without my trusty comrade
and biographer at my elbow.

465
00:34:30,151 --> 00:34:33,403
He wants me to meet him in
a restaurant off of Gloster Road.

466
00:34:34,447 --> 00:34:36,823
I just hope you'll be careful,
that's all.

467
00:34:37,742 --> 00:34:39,534
You're not as young as you were.

468
00:34:40,703 --> 00:34:44,623
You know what Mr. Holmes is like
once he gets the bit between his teeth.

469
00:34:44,874 --> 00:34:45,832
I do indeed.

470
00:34:46,751 --> 00:34:48,168
Goodnight Mrs. Hudson.

471
00:34:48,795 --> 00:34:50,045
Goodnight doctor.

472
00:35:02,850 --> 00:35:03,767
Thank you.

473
00:35:05,228 --> 00:35:06,269
Thank you, sir.

474
00:35:31,838 --> 00:35:33,046
Have you the tools.

475
00:35:34,924 --> 00:35:36,007
Have you had something to eat?

476
00:35:36,175 --> 00:35:37,175
Yes, indeed.

477
00:35:37,385 --> 00:35:40,178
Then have a coffee or a curacao.
Signor Glodini!

478
00:35:41,514 --> 00:35:43,890
A coffee and a curacao
please, for my friend.

479
00:35:44,016 --> 00:35:46,143
Try one of the proprietor cigars.

480
00:35:46,352 --> 00:35:48,603
They're nothing like as poisonous
as one would expect.

481
00:35:48,729 --> 00:35:49,896
Oh, thank you.

482
00:35:50,273 --> 00:35:54,609
Now, now, for our plan of action.

483
00:35:56,696 --> 00:35:59,865
It was evident to you Watson
that the body was placed

484
00:36:00,199 --> 00:36:00,991
on the roof of the carriage.

485
00:36:01,117 --> 00:36:02,242
Or dropped from a bridge.

486
00:36:02,535 --> 00:36:04,327
No, that's impossible, placed.

487
00:36:04,871 --> 00:36:06,913
The carriage roofs are
rounded with no rails.

488
00:36:07,498 --> 00:36:09,749
But how could he
be placed there?

489
00:36:10,042 --> 00:36:13,378
In some areas,
he London underground

490
00:36:13,713 --> 00:36:17,174
runs clear of tunnels and
past the backs of houses.

491
00:36:17,466 --> 00:36:18,508
When I found

492
00:36:18,843 --> 00:36:22,012
that a leading international agent
lived in just such a house.

493
00:36:22,221 --> 00:36:25,557
I was so pleased that you were
a little astonished at my sudden...

494
00:36:25,766 --> 00:36:29,853
Hugo Oberstein. 13, Coffield
Gardens, of course.

495
00:36:30,146 --> 00:36:34,232
Exactly. I was able to satisfy
myself that not only

496
00:36:34,400 --> 00:36:36,526
do the backstairs windows
open over the line

497
00:36:37,361 --> 00:36:39,196
but the bowing to the intersection

498
00:36:39,405 --> 00:36:42,115
of the Richmond and Wyndam lines
were the Circle Line.

499
00:36:42,575 --> 00:36:43,825
Near Gloster road Station.

500
00:36:44,577 --> 00:36:49,122
The trains are frequently
held motionless at that very spot.

501
00:36:50,249 --> 00:36:52,250
That's splendid. You got it.

502
00:36:52,376 --> 00:36:54,002
There house appears to be unoccupied.

503
00:36:54,253 --> 00:36:57,088
Oberstein obviously has gone
abroad to dispose of his booty

504
00:36:57,506 --> 00:36:59,090
has no reason to fear a warrant.

505
00:36:59,342 --> 00:37:01,718
And to spot an amateur burglary
would never occur to him

506
00:37:01,844 --> 00:37:04,346
but that is precisely
what we're about to do.

507
00:37:06,265 --> 00:37:07,933
Why, for what purpose?

508
00:37:08,267 --> 00:37:10,018
We cannot tell what
correspondence they may have.

509
00:37:11,229 --> 00:37:13,772
No, no, I... no, I don't like it, Holmes.

510
00:37:13,940 --> 00:37:16,983
You can keep watch.
I'll do the criminal part.

511
00:37:17,568 --> 00:37:19,361
This is no time to stick to trifles.

512
00:37:20,905 --> 00:37:22,572
Think of the Admiralty,
think of the cabinet.

513
00:37:23,783 --> 00:37:26,785
Think of the exalted person
herself who waits for news.

514
00:37:29,288 --> 00:37:30,664
We're bound to go.

515
00:37:36,462 --> 00:37:38,338
I knew you wouldn't
shrink at the last.

516
00:38:12,832 --> 00:38:16,334
Serious proposition,
locked and bolted.

517
00:38:17,378 --> 00:38:19,170
We may do better down area.

518
00:38:34,770 --> 00:38:37,105
Ah, this is better. Jimmy.

519
00:38:48,409 --> 00:38:49,200
Holmes.

520
00:39:40,503 --> 00:39:41,669
Don't touch Watson.

521
00:39:45,174 --> 00:39:46,883
Look where they've rested the body.

522
00:39:54,266 --> 00:39:54,933
Blood.

523
00:39:59,814 --> 00:40:00,730
Blood again.

524
00:40:24,547 --> 00:40:25,630
Well, what do you think of that?

525
00:40:25,881 --> 00:40:28,675
Masterpiece. You've never
risen to a greater height.

526
00:40:28,801 --> 00:40:30,009
No, I cannot agree with you.

527
00:40:30,761 --> 00:40:32,303
The moment I conceived
the idea of the body

528
00:40:32,430 --> 00:40:34,889
on the roof of the train
the rest was inevitable,

529
00:40:35,349 --> 00:40:37,100
and major difficulties to perform.

530
00:41:19,393 --> 00:41:22,687
Hmm, fresh blotting paper.
Cunning fellow.

531
00:41:23,439 --> 00:41:24,939
He's covered his tracks.

532
00:41:35,784 --> 00:41:36,534
Holmes.

533
00:41:50,549 --> 00:41:52,050
Means nothing.

534
00:42:08,192 --> 00:42:11,361
Seems to have been
burning old newspapers.

535
00:42:13,030 --> 00:42:14,072
I say Holmes.

536
00:42:14,240 --> 00:42:15,073
Yes.

537
00:42:15,491 --> 00:42:16,991
Why would a man so obviously

538
00:42:17,660 --> 00:42:22,372
untidy of his habits take the
trouble to burn old newspapers?

539
00:42:22,581 --> 00:42:24,249
Probably trying to start a fire.

540
00:42:24,375 --> 00:42:27,585
Yeah, but there's
no, no wood or coal.

541
00:42:31,090 --> 00:42:31,756
Let me see.

542
00:42:51,652 --> 00:42:52,485
What is it?

543
00:42:54,863 --> 00:42:57,490
Well done, well done.

544
00:42:57,616 --> 00:42:59,450
Indeed, I think we have our man.

545
00:43:00,286 --> 00:43:01,411
Would you look in
the agony column

546
00:43:01,537 --> 00:43:03,121
of the two remaining copies of
The Daily Telegraph.

547
00:43:03,247 --> 00:43:06,624
I think you will find a message
from someone calling himself Piero.

548
00:43:06,875 --> 00:43:08,126
Piero, Piero, Piero.

549
00:43:08,294 --> 00:43:09,419
Ah, here we are.

550
00:43:09,962 --> 00:43:12,380
"Hope to hear soon the terms agreed
but must have full report"

551
00:43:12,506 --> 00:43:13,840
"matter pressing signed Piero."

552
00:43:20,514 --> 00:43:21,472
Yes, by Jove.

553
00:43:21,640 --> 00:43:25,101
"Monday night after 9:00,
two taps, only on sills,"

554
00:43:25,227 --> 00:43:27,145
"payment in hard cash
when goods delivered,"

555
00:43:27,479 --> 00:43:28,771
signed Piero just
like the other one.

556
00:43:28,897 --> 00:43:31,816
Every paper has a message from
someone calling himself Piero.

557
00:43:32,568 --> 00:43:35,945
It's an odd name for the villain
like Oberstein to use.

558
00:43:36,071 --> 00:43:38,072
If only we could get the man
at the other end

559
00:43:39,241 --> 00:43:40,700
Watson, quickly.

560
00:43:41,076 --> 00:43:43,202
We haven't a moment to loose.
Bring the papers.

561
00:43:48,167 --> 00:43:49,042
Where we going?

562
00:43:50,085 --> 00:43:53,338
The offices of the Daily Telegraph.
We're just time.

563
00:44:01,096 --> 00:44:04,223
Splendid, Sherlock, splendid.

564
00:44:04,683 --> 00:44:09,187
I always said you'd the make
best cat burglar in London

565
00:44:09,313 --> 00:44:10,855
if you put your mind to it,

566
00:44:13,025 --> 00:44:14,692
Can't do these things on
the force, Mr. Holmes.

567
00:44:14,818 --> 00:44:17,320
No wonder you get results
that are beyond us.

568
00:44:18,030 --> 00:44:19,530
Some of these days
you'll go too far

569
00:44:19,907 --> 00:44:21,908
and you and your friend will
find yourselves in trouble.

570
00:44:22,117 --> 00:44:26,120
England home and duty, Watson.
Motto and the oath of our country.

571
00:44:26,789 --> 00:44:29,082
The agony column of
The Daily Telegraph.

572
00:44:29,208 --> 00:44:30,917
What use would you make of those?

573
00:44:31,210 --> 00:44:33,795
Have you seen the advertisement
from Piero today?

574
00:44:40,552 --> 00:44:45,765
"Tonight, same hour, same place,
two taps, most vitally important,"

575
00:44:46,016 --> 00:44:49,936
"your own safety at sake", signed Piero.

576
00:44:50,604 --> 00:44:52,897
By George, if he answers that
we've got him.

577
00:45:24,888 --> 00:45:28,015
Wake up. He's here.

578
00:46:08,932 --> 00:46:10,641
You can write me down
as an ass, Watson.

579
00:46:10,809 --> 00:46:12,643
This is not the bird
I was expecting.

580
00:46:13,353 --> 00:46:14,145
Who is he?

581
00:46:14,271 --> 00:46:17,982
Colonel Valentine Walter,
Sir James' younger brother.

582
00:46:18,525 --> 00:46:20,651
I'm beginning to see
how the cards fall now.

583
00:46:21,403 --> 00:46:25,364
What is this?
I came here to visit Mr. Oberstein.

584
00:46:27,034 --> 00:46:28,367
I know you, surely...

585
00:46:28,869 --> 00:46:30,161
Sherlock Holmes.

586
00:46:33,123 --> 00:46:34,999
Everything is known, Colonel.

587
00:46:36,043 --> 00:46:37,168
How an English gentlemen

588
00:46:37,294 --> 00:46:40,463
could behave in such a manner
is beyond comprehension.

589
00:46:42,216 --> 00:46:44,926
We know of your relations and
correspondence with Oberstein.

590
00:46:45,093 --> 00:46:47,345
You stole your brothers' keys
and had them duplicated.

591
00:46:48,514 --> 00:46:49,722
We knew you went to
Admiralty Office

592
00:46:49,848 --> 00:46:52,058
on Monday night and was seen
by Cadogan West.

593
00:46:53,352 --> 00:46:56,687
Only his pride to concerns being
the good citizen that he was.

594
00:46:57,523 --> 00:46:58,815
He followed you closely in the fog

595
00:46:58,941 --> 00:47:01,692
halfway across London until
you reached this very house.

596
00:47:01,860 --> 00:47:05,279
It was then Colonel
Walter that to treason

597
00:47:05,405 --> 00:47:08,491
you added the terrible
crime of murder.

598
00:47:09,243 --> 00:47:13,037
I did not, I did not.
Before God, I swear I did not.

599
00:47:13,205 --> 00:47:15,039
Then tell us how
Arthur Cadogan West

600
00:47:15,207 --> 00:47:19,001
met his end before you placed his body
on the roof of the railway carriage?

601
00:47:19,503 --> 00:47:21,254
He followed me
as you described

602
00:47:21,755 --> 00:47:25,883
but until I was at the very door of
this house I did not know it.

603
00:47:45,529 --> 00:47:47,238
What are you gonna
do with those papers?

604
00:48:13,765 --> 00:48:16,350
He hit his head
on the marble floor.

605
00:48:16,560 --> 00:48:18,811
He was dead in a
matter of minutes.

606
00:48:19,938 --> 00:48:22,523
It was Oberstein's idea to
stuff the less important plans

607
00:48:22,649 --> 00:48:25,151
in West's pocket and put him
on the roof of the train.

608
00:48:32,993 --> 00:48:35,328
What made you turn
traitor, Colonel?

609
00:48:37,664 --> 00:48:40,291
A stock exchange
debt had to be paid.

610
00:48:42,044 --> 00:48:45,212
I needed the money badly.
Oberstein offered me five thousand.

611
00:48:48,133 --> 00:48:51,719
It was to save myself
from ruin and disgrace.

612
00:48:54,306 --> 00:48:56,015
My brother used to
discuss matters with me

613
00:48:56,141 --> 00:48:58,559
which he probably
should not have done

614
00:48:59,061 --> 00:49:00,811
This submarine, for instance.

615
00:49:01,980 --> 00:49:06,567
How could he ever guess
his own brother would betray him?

616
00:49:08,612 --> 00:49:10,071
That was the worst of all.

617
00:49:11,031 --> 00:49:13,991
He suspected me. I know he did.
I read it in his eyes.

618
00:49:16,578 --> 00:49:20,998
And after this West business
he never held up his head again.

619
00:49:23,460 --> 00:49:25,336
Can you not make reparation,

620
00:49:25,921 --> 00:49:29,548
to ease your conscious
and possibly your punishment?

621
00:49:30,175 --> 00:49:32,093
What reparation can I make?

622
00:49:32,219 --> 00:49:33,761
Where is Oberstein with the papers?

623
00:49:33,887 --> 00:49:35,137
I do not know.

624
00:49:36,056 --> 00:49:39,475
He said that letters to the Hotel
Delu in Paris would reach him.

625
00:49:40,352 --> 00:49:44,313
Ah, well then it is possible
for you to help us.

626
00:49:50,112 --> 00:49:53,614
Come and sit down
and write my dictation.

627
00:50:03,083 --> 00:50:04,000
"Dear sir,"

628
00:50:06,211 --> 00:50:08,879
"in regard to our transaction
you have now observed"

629
00:50:09,006 --> 00:50:11,257
"that one essential
detail is missing"

630
00:50:11,383 --> 00:50:13,467
"but I have a tracing
that will make it complete."

631
00:50:13,719 --> 00:50:15,344
Is that true, Sherlock?

632
00:50:15,721 --> 00:50:16,554
Quite true.

633
00:50:17,472 --> 00:50:18,973
What essential detail is missing?

634
00:50:20,183 --> 00:50:23,978
The double-valves,
the automatic self-adjusting slots.

635
00:50:24,646 --> 00:50:27,231
Good heavens. How on earth
did you know that?

636
00:50:27,357 --> 00:50:30,234
I've become quite a submarine
expert brother of mine.

637
00:50:31,737 --> 00:50:32,903
Now Colonel,

638
00:50:36,033 --> 00:50:37,867
what would be your terms?

639
00:50:41,288 --> 00:50:45,583
"I must ask you for a
further 500 pounds..."

640
00:50:45,751 --> 00:50:47,209
English notes please.

641
00:50:52,507 --> 00:50:54,425
I should expect to meet you-

642
00:50:55,260 --> 00:50:58,596
well, we can hardly say here
or Oberstein will suspect a trap.

643
00:50:59,264 --> 00:51:02,099
The foyer of
the Charring Cross Hotel.

644
00:51:02,476 --> 00:51:04,435
Its proximity to
the railway station

645
00:51:04,603 --> 00:51:08,981
renders it extremely popular amongst
the international spy fraternity.

646
00:51:09,191 --> 00:51:10,274
Did you get that Colonel?

647
00:51:12,903 --> 00:51:15,279
Noon, Saturday next,

648
00:51:16,698 --> 00:51:19,742
I should be very surprised
if that does not flush our man out.

649
00:51:48,480 --> 00:51:50,147
That's our man.

650
00:52:55,380 --> 00:52:56,714
Splendid Bradstreet.

651
00:52:58,508 --> 00:53:00,050
But our traitor has flown.

652
00:53:01,219 --> 00:53:03,596
What a damn cheat of a fellow.

653
00:53:04,514 --> 00:53:05,472
Goodbye, gentlemen.

654
00:53:06,975 --> 00:53:08,684
I'm keeping him on a long lead.

655
00:53:12,689 --> 00:53:14,899
There's an R in the month

656
00:53:15,150 --> 00:53:19,987
and the Diogenes Club
has the most excellent oysters.

657
00:53:20,155 --> 00:53:23,991
I should like both you
gentlemen to be my guests.

658
00:53:25,952 --> 00:53:27,578
Come along, Sherlock
