All language subtitles for Schreie In Der Nacht [1969]

You've gambled enough.
I think we should leave.

Don't be so impatient. You used to
enjoy gambling, too. Don't you remember?

Alfred, don't feel so blue.
I will convince Archibald so you can join us.

Will Vivian come, too?

What is your problem with Vivian?
- Nothing, actually.

But I have a problem with
the way she looks at you.

You should be proud that
she finds me attractive.

I'll have a go one more time.

One card.

Seven.

I'll join Margaret.

Vivian and her lawyer...

I can't figure them out.

Why? They both work for Archibald,
that's all there is to it.

That chip is one your behalf.

You mustn't think about that story with Loriana.
You only torture yourself.

You'll see, once we are back that whole thing
will be forgotten. it was an accident, that's all.

I'm afraid the whole
thing isn't that simple.

But I hope you are right.
-I am sure of it, you just have to really want it.

I won! You did, too.

That's a good start for the evening.

There's Archibald. Just let me handle it.

Archie, can we take Alfred to Brighton?
He has a house there where we could stay.

Sure, please exchange your chips.

Do we really have to
carry him along, too?

Even Margaret doesn't have
to be pan of the negotiations.

I am sure he won't bother us.
The lad seems to be alright.

Also, he can keep Margaret
company while we are with the judge.

Horrible weather; not exactly
ideal for such a nightly trip.

It was your advise to wait. If it had been up to me
I would have presented the documents a year ago.

Sure, and we all would be
behind iron bars by now.

Only at midnight the Weston case
is under the statue of limitations.

Tomorrow is the last day where you can claim
the estates that are so important to you.

You know that's not my fault,
it was the judge's ruling.

It's just a few hours.

We lied in order to decide the whole
inheritance affair in your best interest.

Take the front seat. Alfred will join us, too.

We will be his guests in
his house in Brighton.

He has a house in Brighton? I was under the
impression he only sleeps in other people's beds.

Terrible weather. It'll be a joyful
ride if it continues pouring like this.

The main road to Brighton is blocked.
It's better if you take the old country road.

Jonathan, Alfred will guide you.

If you can't get through
here take the detour.

Do we have to? We'd probably be
in this car for the rest of the night.

Have a sip, it'll do you good.
- Thank you.

It's been 10 years since I came to Brighton and was
introduced to Sir Archibald Barrett as his administrator.

Nice to see you are here.
I'll be down right away.

Goodbye and thanks.

What do you say? Are you as happy as I am?
Now you are Archibald's administrator.

You will live here and we can
see each other every day.

You never believed I'd manage to make this happen.
Oh. Alfred. I'd do anything for you. Come with me.

You are a capable woman.

No wonder you made this happen, given your looks.
Who could say no to you?

No, darling, not here on the stairs. I am also yearning
for you, but you have to introduce yourself first.

Then you'll come to me and then...

Why not right away?

No, darling, somebody could see us.

The boss is waiting. He must
have seen you arriving.

Let him wait.

Good day Miss Margaret.
-Excuse me. do you know where the driver is?

I haven't seen him.

Maybe he is in the garage. He wanted
to fix a car. I haven't seen him all day long.

If you see him tell him
I was looking for him.

He has to drive me to town.
I have urgent business there.

That's Margaret.

The mistress of the boss.

I hope she won't tell him about us.

You won't believe what a bitch she is.

I don't find her that bitchy.

Don't worry. She won't gossip

Alright. you may start tomorrow.
I am sure we will get along.

Archie, we have to hurry.
Otherwise we'll be late again.

I'll be with you in a moment.
We are almost done here anyway.

Darling, this is our new
administrator. Mr. Sinclair.

This is Miss Margaret. I'll
just put on my jacket.

Haven't we met earlier?

Yes.

During a rather exciting
moment, am I right?

Yes

Margaret, are you coming?

Goodbye Mr...
-Alfred!

0k. that's all sorted.

We have a new administrator.
Fortunately he will take care of a lot of the work.

Here is the entire documentation
for the Blackwood estate.

We'll take the whole lot so
I can look through it.

There I'll have more time.
We'll drive tomorrow or in two days.

We will have to be back in
three weeks, however.

Why? -We have to go to
Brighton with Archibald

and hand over these
documents to the judge.

Richard's papers.

This has to be sorted. Then the
whole affair can be closed.

And once that's done we will
not talk about it anymore.

Why don't we go back to France?

That's out of the questions.
Weren't all those years we had to live there enough?

Archibald is now the official owner
of all these estates. He owns everything.

He is also the boss. What
a great career I have.

Thinking that I used to be one of
London'! top lawyers ten years ago.

And now?

Today I am nothing more
but an accountant.

Say, who is this young man
down there with Margaret?

That's Alfred, the new administrator.

My competitor, so to speak.

Given his reputation he will
have a rapid career here.

Margaret?
-Yes!

I have begged Barrett to leave her in France but he
had to bring here here to get cheated on.

Alfred is the right man for a... for a girl like her.

Do you really believe that she...
-I don't mean anything!

That is her business.

Goodbye!

Are you leaving already?

I still have to go through a lot of invoices.
I want you to be proud of me, after all.

I also have to take care of the stables.

The stables or the mare?

Tell the truth. Everybody can see that
the boss's girlfriend is interested in you.

Jealous?
-Absolutely!

I am not like the others...

...who claim to never be jealous at all.

Until, one day, the find things
out and the make a big scene.

I want you just for myself,
that's why I brought you here.

I won't let you cheat on me.

I swear I will kill that little whore
if she won't leave you alone.

That's what I like about you. The charm and
diplomacy with which you say such things.

Alfred, look at me!

I am warning you. That wasn't a joke.

Full House!

For you the whole life is a poker game.
it doesn't matter what is at stake.

All games fascinate me. Isn't life a game, too?
Fate deals the cards and one doesn't know the outcome.

Do you want to play for Ben?

No, thanks. I don't like to loose.

Where is Margaret?

I don't know.

Probably upstairs.
-Why don't you go and see her?

She may want to join the game.

Alright.

Is he still there?

Yes, he seems to be winning all the time.

Say, do you also enjoy gambling?

Sometimes.

Are you in luck?

That depends on what is at stake.

My lucky card is always the queen.
With her I usually win.

But not with Diana. She didn't help you
winning but with me you can get a lot more.

I know that.

If you're the ladder leading to
success it'll be a pleasure to climb it.

Listen, Alfred.

I'll make you an influential man.
I'll introduce you to the high society.

I'll make sure Archibald will
give you bigger and better jobs.

Oh, Alfred. We'll be so happy.

With you I found the safety
I have been looking for.

We should be in Brighton soon.

Yes.

I think we're stuck.
- Have a look.

What's up, Jonathan?
- We're stuck in the mud.

Slowly drive towards me.

Go on!

Careful, not so much.

Nothing can be done. Get out.

Get some branches.

0k, try again.

Set the steering straight.

Try!

It's of no use.

Nothing to be done.

The car won't move.

We're stuck, the wheels are stuck in
the mud and won't get a grip.

I have seen a house nearby so we have
no other choice but to seek shelter there.

Why don't we stay here in the car?
- What shall we do?

If the storm gets worse we
won't get out of here anymore.

So we have no choice.

The driver has an umbrella.

Alfred, which direction is the house.
- It has to be over there.

I can't see anything.
- It should only be a few hundred meters.

We will be there soon.

Dammit, hey, wait.

Now the umbrella is gone, too.

Attention!

Move, go on!

Hurry up!

Hold on to that briefcase.
It's more valuable than you are.

This way. We are almost there.

Finally, at least we have shelter here.
- Hello, is anybody there?

I welcome you, ladies & gentlemen.

Please excuse us, our car got
stuck nearby. Do you have a telephone?

Yes, but it's out of order. it never works
in such a storm. Neither does the electricity.

Do you have a car?
- No.

So, in such a storm you are
cut from the rest of the world.

Fortunately, it hardly ever happens.

Is there a gas station nearby?

About three miles from here.

Is it still open?
It used to be, 10 years ago.

Back then I had a car.
I haven't been there since then.

I'll give it a try. If somebody's
there, maybe they can help.

Try to find another car.
If necessary, buy one!

Please excuse our taking advantage of
your hospitality until the driver is back.

I hope it won't take long.
- But certainly. Please feel right at home. Mr. Barrett.

You seem surprised that I know
your name, Mr. Barrett.

But who won't know the most
influential man in this area.

My I introduce myself: my name is Uriat.
This is my mother, Helsa.

No, no, she doesn't see you.
She can't see you.

Is she blind?
- No, she isn't blind.

She is currently in another world with all her senses.
In the fourth dimension so to speak. She's in a trance.

We have been living for over 10 years in
this old hunting lot that used to be a hotel.

Don't you remember it?
All the hunting parties that had festivities here.

And the success they had
you can see in all the stuffed animals.

But one day it got closed and it
is rare that a people come to this area.

When we are sitting together at night
my mother and I have often tried to hold a seance.

She has unusual spiritistic powers.

Also tonight, we managed to get in contact
with a deceased that wanted to talk to us.

I feel the spirit struggling
to communicate with us.

He was almost among us when the wind blew open
a window and I had to break the chain to close it.

When I looked outside I thought I'd seen
a man who ran into through the trees.

It probably didn't happen. Only a madman
would run around the woods in such a night.

Maybe it was just my imagination. The strain on my nerves
and the stress could have made me seeing things.

And the poor one had to remain in her position,
stuck in her trance because of me.

I knew it would be hard to get
her out of this state.

At that moment I heard your
knocking at the door.

I wasn't mistaken. Someone had arrived.

Someone wanted to enter and
we offered our welcome.

Maybe it is no coincidence
that you ended up here tonight.

Together we could close the chain again

and help her wake up from the trance.

Why not?

By the way, many years ago a close relative
of mine disappeared in this area.

I owe a large part of my wealth
to him and I may inherit even more.

Maybe we can find out something
about him in such a seance.

Richard.

Richard Right.

How does she know this name?

Nobody here mentioned it.

Mr. Barrett only mentioned a relative.

He never said his name.

We will find out how she knows.

Can't we leave? I want to
get away from here.

Please, you don't have to be afraid.
I understand you may find this all a bit strange.

If you prefer to be alone
you can go upstairs.

There is a room where you can rest.
You can also dry your clothes at the fire there.

You can accompany the lady.

He'll take your luggage and
will keep you company.

The fireplace is lit and the room is warm.
It's the first room upstairs.

Please, go.

I'll accompany her.

Go on, Margaret. Go with Vivian.

Listen, I don't like this comedy.

You can leave if you like. I can manage without you.
There are hundreds of lawyers in London.

After tonight's rain. dozens more
will have grown like mushrooms.

I want to know how your mother knew the name.
- Ask her yourself, you may find out.

Please, sit down.

Do you want something to drink?

I can recommend it.

What is it?
- Blood.

I gave it that name because of
the color and because it is the

only thing that revitalizes me.
My mother makes it from blackberries.

Vivian has a bottle of Whiskey with her.

Seeing you drink like that one
could think you also need blood.

Only that is has a different color.

Will you join? - No.

Are you afraid?

So, what do I have to do?
- Please, sit down.

Now please put your
hand flat on the table.

Relaxed and without pressure.

Almost floating. Then
we'll close the circle.

The hands have to slightly touch each other.
The circle mustn't be disrupted under any circumstances.

Concentrate; intensely.

On what?

You want to talk to it, to this creature

which is, at this moment,
in contact with my mother.

Think about it, concentrate on
this with all your strength.

And who will it be?

This creature?

A dead person speaking with
your mothers voice?

Yes, you are correct.

It's a bit chilly here.

Would you please put some
more wood in the fire?

We aren't shivering because of the cold.
It's the spiritual frequencies.

Don't talk such nonsense.

Do you honestly believe all this?
- Of course!

That's absurd. It's scientifically proven that...
- It's proven that is is true.

Or at least that it's possible.

If this is important to you. you will
have to believe in it and concentrate.

He will come. He will step forward from his current
dimension and relive his earthly live for one moment.

And you... you can get
in contact with him?

Certainly.
- Then force him to talk to us.

I won't force anybody. He will talk to us out of his own
free will. It's a spirit being that still wanders among us.

If this creature felt hatred during the
very moment of its death, it will show itself.

And yes, some of it continues living beyond physical death.
To act out revenge as a result of this strong feeling of hate.

Ask him!
I want to know who it is.

You mustn't talk!

Think deeply and concentrate!

You must relax... and concentrate.

Margaret?

If you want to lay down, put this on.
I will dry your clothes in the meantime.

How come you never visit
the Blackwood estate?

Archibald doesn't want me to accompany
him during his travels. You know what he's like.

Indeed, I know well over 10 years.

Why did you come tonight?

I accompany Ben because of
this affair with the documents.

Whom do you have to show them to?

They have to be with the
court tomorrow morning.

You and Ben, you are not only
administrators at Blackwood, aren't you?

No. we are also partners.
We get along quite well.

That surprises me. Archibald doesn't
think much of partnerships.

It's more a friendly thing.

Who was this Richard?

That's a long story from
many years ago. A complicated story.

It's better not to ask Archibald about it.

He doesn't like other people
taking interest in his private affairs.

You can go downstairs again.

Shall I ask Alfred to join you?

Don't act so surprised.
I have seen the two of you in the greenhouse.

Since then I cannot get you
out of my mind, Margaret.

You are so charming,
so beautiful, so young.

Next to Archibald, life must
seem empty and boring.

I understand why you are
looking for satisfaction in Alfred's love.

But he doesn't suit you;
he is way under your class.

You are so pretty, so charming...
- Vivian!

Yes, call me Vivian. I want to show
you a new world. Pleasures you have not known.

We could be friends. Yes, I
want to be your friend. - No, Vivian!

You prefer Alfred?

What if I tell Archibald?
I could send him up while Alfred is here.

Rest assured. I won't say anything.

That is... under one condition.

You have to decide now. That ugly witch
downstairs won't keep him busy for long.

And Jonathan can comeback
any minute now. Accept my terms.

Be reasonable and
it'll be better for you.

There we go. You're a bright girl.

You won't regret it. From now on
I will give you everything you've been missing.

Now your life really starts
and you will understand.

All right, now go please and get Alfred.

Go now!

Help him... help him so he
can join us... and he will talk to us.

His revelations may change
your entire lives.

But you have to learn the truth.

Yes, it's the truth that
may hurt you. Help him to appear.

I can sense he will be with us shortly.

He's getting closer, and closer,
soon he will tell reveal the truth.

For he knows this truth.
which he tragically experienced himself.

Who are you?

I ask who you are. Speak!

You mustn't talk aloud. Ask the questions in your
mind only and concentrate on what you want to know,

Whisper your questions.

This isn't your earthly world. You cannot
command a spirit. You can only subdue yourself

and ask him humbly.

If I think...
- Be quiet now!

Concentrate with all your
strength on the question.

Now... now I want to know
how this continues.

Talk, please. Continue talking.

Now it's up to you. I can feel the
ghost is ready get in contact with you.

Remember that horrible night which you so desperately
try to forget and which has poisoned your lives.

Via our joint concentration, we give him the
strength to let us relive that moment of the past.

An invincible monster will devour you all.
That monster is your conscience.

Yes, it's the truth that
will hurt you all.

His revelations might change
your entire lives.

But you have to learn the truth.

Another piece of cake?

And you?
- No, thanks.

Clayton, you are so quiet.
- I am thinking.

Good evening.

Shall we drink something? Did you get it?
- Sure! It's in the stables, waiting for you.

Great!

A toast to my new horse.

Shall we go down and have a look at it?
You'll come, won't you?

Certainly.

We also need a name.

Shall we go?

Vivian, shall we go?

Fancy a round of cards?
- If you want, I enjoy gambling.

I love it, on that very table we
had lots of games in the past.

God. how cute. Come here. sweaty.

He's enchanting.

That's not the only reason
we are here, aren't we?

No!

Come, Margaret.

Oh, I love you.

No!

Diana, are you mad?
- I'll kill you!

...and then I won four times in a row...

Archibald.
- Yes? Excuse me one moment.

Sorry, Archibald, but Vivian and I will go back
to Blackwood to collect the documents.

0k, I'll be seeing you tomorrow morning.
Bring the papers and we will leave straight away to Brighton.

Allright. it was a nice party.

So, Archibald, do you want to continue eating or shall we play?
- Eating and gambling are the only things that make me happy.

You'll remain involved in
the net of truth forever.

An invincible monster will devour you.
This monster is your conscience.

Help me!

Even though you will make a giant step towards this truth
witch will will bring doom for you. You cannot escape fate.

Even though you will make a giant step towards this truth
witch will will bring doom for you. You cannot escape fate.

He knows every second of your life.
He will come... and he will judge you.

All of you, who think they know how to love.
You are just weak.

You are just guests on this earth, suffering and hating,
without access to the true meaning of love.

Because it is something that belongs to eternity.

Vivian has seen me coming up.
I hope she won't tell.

I am sure she won't, believe me.

Are you sure?
- I am. I paid a hefty price for it.

So you bought her.
- No, she bought me.

Her friendship can be very
favorable for you, especially now.

Alfred, what's the matter?

You seem worried?
- Yes, the two of you and this seance...

...it makes me nervous. Maybe the old bag
really has contact with some spirits.

Maybe she knows everything about us.

But that's impossible.
She cannot have invented the things she said.

Even Ben and Archibald are convinced that she
knows something that could incriminate them.

She talks about a creature
that will reveal the truth.

It could be... Diana.

But Alfred, that's...

I know it sounds crazy.
I normally don't believe in such spiritistic nonsense.

But somehow I am frightened.

Something...

I can't put in words.
A truth shall be revealed that I don't know.

I can't take the suspense.

I want to leave.

But Alfred.

Where do you want to go?

I'll walk towards Jonathan.
I'd rather face the storm than stay here.

There is no witness.
- The old one knows more than she says.

Here I am!

No you will sense my presence.

I am right among you.

Alfred.

You who called out for me.

You who want to know everything.
Now you will find out.

Now I will tell you the truth

about the events that night.

That night in which you all became guilty.

Who are you?

The victim.

The victim of your dark doings.

Tonight I will reveal it all.
About you... and your crime.

Alfred.

I am among you, as your prosecutor.

Your sentence is decided.

At this very moment I can clearly
see your past as well as your short future.

Your hills and your valleys.

Enough, I won't take this nonsense any longer.
Come, Ben, let's leave.

Your name has been mentioned, too. Why?

Don't you want to know?

Is that why your hands are shaking?

Why a "short future"?
What does it mean: "he's our prosecutor"?

You don't believe in it anyway.
- But I have seen through this charade.

I know now what this whole hoax is all about
and why this nonsense has been staged.

Here is what this is all about. The documents.
I have them and there is nothing you can do about.

They are mine. You and your spirit can stop
putting on a show. You know more than you are telling.

What is all this, Uraia? Blackmail?

That you shouldn't ask me.

I have heard your name and
the name of your mother before.

Archie.

Don't you remember?

We have read your name in the
papers when we were in France.

I am certain.

Uraia Brunner. If course, you were
connected with that murder case 10 years ago.

Uraia Brunner.

Archie.

Don't you remember? The two were the
main protagonists of the trial.

I followed the report closely.

We had to stay in France till things had cooled down.

Then we could collect the
fruits of our voluntary exile.

I know that at that time the names
Uriat and Helsa Brunner were mentioned all

the time in connection with the murder
of Richard Bright and his wife Elizabeth.

No. I was the guilty party...

back then.

Vivian. Sorry. I couldn't make it earlier.
I had a tough day in court.

Come, I want to introduce you to
Elizabeth, Richard's wife.

Is she here already?
- Yes, we met on the way here.

This evening I saw Elizabeth
for the first time.

Neither Ben nor I knew of the
terrible consequences of this meeting.

She look adorable.
How could she live together with Richard.

With this little, unimportant man
who cared only for his money.

Did you have a good trip, darling?

Yes, thank you.

This is Vivian. I have told her about you.

I hope nothing bad.

On the contrary. Shall we sit?

Make yourself comfortable.
Do you want a drink?

Did you make the arrangements as
we have discussed? -Of course.

Aren't you bored here in the countryside?
- Not anymore, now that I know you.

I want to be your friend.

She put her hand on mine.
I will never forget her first touch.

Whenever I looked at her, a new, previously
unknown feeling of happiness came over me.

Although an inner voice told me to be careful
I was defenseless already at that evening.

Did you have a long business talk again?

You are not asleep? Do you know how late it is?

It's almost three.
- Yes, I know.

I have been waiting for you.

I had hoped it wouldn't be so late.

You know how things are.

Once Archibald starts talking about business he won't find an end.
- Is it already raining through the roof of the pretty, new house?

What?

If your adventures last
till the early morning hours

at least leave your wet coat outside.

Then your lies are a bit more credible.

You don't miss a thing.

I know you for too long.

Why are you expanding your
hunting grounds even to the countryside?

Are the girls here prettier than in the city?
- The things you say.

I only say the truth.

Before you got mixed up with these
people it wasn't that bad.

Only since you know Bernad.
- Why?

I only take care of Archibald's affairs.

That's all. It's pan of my job.

A lawyer with a good name has to make
sure there are no stains on his client's reputation.

Even if it is more difficult
this time than usually.

I don't have a high opinion of the two.

Archibald is the gambler
type and the other one...

...he doesn't seem to have
a clean vest, too.

I think he is involved in
some dodgy business.

I find it strange that he
should inherit everything.

I am convinced he manipulated something.

By the way, tomorrow will be
very important appointment.

We have to pay a lot of debt
and we have no money.

I need a clear head.

After the party and the fox hunt
there will be a lot of action.

I am sure they will quarrel.

We'll see.

Do you think Elizabeth is pretty?

Very much so.

There is something strange about her. She seems...

...I cannot find the right words.

Could she mean something to you as a woman?

I thought you know me so well so...

What's the matter?

Are you now jealous because of her, too?

Jealous?

Or what is it?

Nothing, please, let me sleep.

Are you serious?

You men only think about your
wives when you feel like it.

Vivian.

What's the matter?

You know I love you, very much so.

Even if it's in my own way.

I want to know what's the matter with you.

What's up?

Is there some other guy?

Oh no.

I'm not like you.

The day there is another man for me...

...I'd leave you.

There are days when a woman needs a lot
of tenderness. Someone who is only there for her.

Where she also wants to give tenderness.

But not on order when the man wants it.

You know...

...that's not exactly a compliment for me.

Please, don't.

Vivian, what has changed you so?

I am not like you.

Will you help me?

There you are.

How was the hunt?
-Great, of course.

We took the opportunity and went for a great gallop.
- I am happy to hear that.

That's right, Uriat.

I know exactly I am not mistaken.

10 years ago you and your
mother were involved in this case.

This is why you know all these details.

Uriat, I think it's better
if you come clean.

Archibald, do you agree?

Either you make your mother talk
or you speak up yourself.

Let's try to close the chain again.

Do we really have to continue
with the charade?

Speak up!

Go on!

You can help us.

We may see quick results

but it is also possible this
night will last an eternity.

Yes.

You think you know each
other, but you don't.

You are only here to betray yourself.

Even tonight you are still
trying to betray yourself.

I ask you. Ben...

...why do you want to hear
again what you already know

or do you think that...

Continue!

Go on!

You probably believe you know everything.

You are wrong, Ben.

You don't know the truth

Concentrate even more.

You have extraordinary mental powers.
You managed to call back the spirit within minutes.

Even though it may have
been against your own will.

Concentrate, and he will talk.

He will reveal everything that
happened that night.

In that night of truth.

Be patient, I will be
right back with you.

You, too, have to help me, you unknowing victim
of a double game you didn't understand.

The time of truth has come
and there is no way back.

A truth that will frighten you.
- Concentrate even more. You mustn't stop.

You mustn't think about anything else.

Even if you begin to understand a lot of things now.
Forget everything. Concentrate.

Margaret.

Now you have understood.

Men are always lacking the courage.

Especially when we need them the most.

When we only want tenderness.

You are even prettier when you are sad.

Forget Alfred.

Don't think about him.

Margaret, I'll help you to
get over everything.

No, Vivian!

Why do you refuse?

Do you want me to use force?

No!

Margaret.

Don't run away. I know you
want me as much as I want you.

You will beg me.

This is the night of the crime.

What crime?

The one you committed years ago.
- Enough now!

I will kill her if she doesn't shut up.

Oh no, she will continue talking.

The blood of innocent people
has been spilled because of this crime.

This blood now calls for revenge.

Tonight the guilty ones
have to pay the price.

And they will pay.

Listen, Berret...

...do you remember my words?

He will return for a short time.

Into our material world.

And he will fulfill the
wonder of his big love...

...0l'...

...to take revenge for what
has been done to him.

Now you will relive that night again.

You were younger back then.
but as perverted as you are today.

There you are. I have been looking for you.
- Archibald, I have a surprise for you.

Sit down.

Ben, how are you?

May I?
- Please.

Excuse me.

Soon we will know what this is about.
- lf the surprise is coming from Richard it won't be pleasant.

Wouldn't it be better to discuss this at
another time. This is hardly the right place.

The sooner we have this
behind us the better.

Let's go in another room.

The more unpleasant a subject matter
the better it is to deal with is as soon as possible.

Make yourself comfortable.

I am sorry I have to take you away from the
company of the ladies but it is very important.

This... surprise... which I mentioned earlier...

...seems important enough.

It is hardly a surprise though as
you know these documents only too well.

As you know. Archibald] have taken over
all mortgages you had regarding your estates.

And that's when I found out you also had
mortgages for estates that don't even belong to you.

I am talking about the estates from the inheritance
that I ended up getting so this constitutes fraud.

I'll turn a blind eye if you pay up right away.
To be clear. either you pay or tomorrow I'll go to the police.

I beg you, give me a few days.

No, that's out of the question.

Excuse me, Mr. Wright, but I don't think
your behavior regarding this affair is acceptable.

Mr. Taylor, I've learned from you.
As you know, these documents carry your signature, too.

Since they are in my possession I won't
hesitate and use them if you refuse to pay up.

I'll be back, wait here.

Your behavior is impossible.
And this guy... what does he want?

What is it? You cannot simply
put me in a corner.

I don't like to be given
orders. Cut the drink.

Your basically ruined.
But don't take it to heart, it's your own fault.

You've gambled and you've lost. And what about our
Mr. Taylor here... he's thrown a promising career away.

I am not even sorry that I have to ruin you.
Otherwise you'd ruin me, too, one day.

I won't let you ruin me.
You have no choice.

I'll meet you there.

Here I am.

You probably hoped I was gone
so you could go for all those guys.

What are you talking about?
Are you crazy?

Do you think you can do
whatever you want?

You will obey and do what I say.

Elizabeth, forgive me.

Forgive me.

Why are you still trying
to cover up the truth?

When you left the ball room that night to discuss things
with Richard Wright you had no idea that he laid a trap for you.

He turned out to be much more clever than you thought
and you couldn't shake off his accusations.

Tomorrow I will bring charges
against you for fraud and forgery.

Leave me, I will show him...

I killed him.

He's dead, Archibald.

Ben, we have to get out of here.

Come, we have to leave quickly.

Let go of me.

What do you want to do?
- I have killed him.

I have to tell the police.
- Ben, be reasonable. Come.

There are no witnesses. Look, here are
the documents that could incriminate us.

We take them and we are clean.

I have committed a crime,
l am a murderer. Don't you understand?

I've slain him. - Nonsense, it was an
accident. He attacked you first.

Please forgive me, Elizabeth.

0k, Vivian, I'll forgive you.

Under one condition: that
you'll never make a scene again

and that you'll do what I say.

No, not now.

Remember, I won't let you tyrannize me.

Not by you nor by anybody else.

You stay here. I won't let you go.

I won't let you betray me.

If you go to this man
again then I'll kill you.

No, Elizabeth, stay here!

This is exactly how it happened.

That's at least what you think. But Mr. Barrett
has not told you an important fact.

And what's that?
- The real reason for Richard's death.

The fact that you didn't kill him.
But this information he kept to himself.

He kept quiet for 10 years.

Your accusations are nonsense.
- Oh no.

You know its true, Mr. Barrett.

You know as well as I do what really
happened that terrible night.

And what role that ring played
that you still carry on our finger.

Why do you still try to cover up the truth?

That night, when you left the ball to discuss your
affairs I couldn't imagine what trap was waiting there.

You were in his hands. There was no
other way out for you but to murder him.

You had prepared the ring with poison
and only waited for the right moment.

You thought you were clever but now you
are involved in this story up to your ears.

The fight with Ben gave
you this opportunity.

I will bring charges against you...

You grabbed his hand and held it long
enough for the poison to enter his body.

You had prepared that ring and
only waited for the right moment.

...l will take you to court.

The moment seemed right.

An impressive fraud.

How do you dare?

Archibald held his hand long enough
so the poison could enter the body.

Now he just had to wait.

It wouldn't take long.

The two men were fighting
when he fell and slammed his head.

Ben was in shock.
This is when Archibald had a new idea.

Ben was convinced that he had killed him.

He's dead, Archibald.

He's dead, I killed him.
- And you didn't speak up.

So you put on the comedy and played
the good guy who wanted to help his friend.

Let's get out of here.
- Let go of me.

I have killed him. I have to pay for this.
- Don't be stupid. We have to get out of here.

Look! Look here!

The documents are in our hands... - But Ben was an
honest man and wanted to stick to his decision.

He believed he had murdered the man
and wanted to pay for his guilt.

At that moment, Vivian committed the
other crime. Ben had lost his head.

That's when you made Ben agree
to flee against his own conviction.

Vivian, come. Come!

Vivian's screams could be
heard in the entire house.

Few minutes later we
discovered the crime.

My mother and I were brought in to
supervise and instruct the servants.

Murderers! Murderers!
- We didn't do it! We didn't do it!

The only person who knew
the truth was you.

But nobody believed in our
innocence because Barrett,

the guilty one, defied justice.
Are you still denying that?

I don't want to defend myself.
It would be useless.

Yes, I killed him. With this ring.

Its needle contains a strong poison
that will kill within seconds.

Yes, I am the murderer.

I have killed him.

I never told you the truth
so I had power over you.

I could have had you arrested
but you knew way too much.

But now we are done. I have everything
I wanted. I have no use for people who know too much.

I will silence all of you.
The fruits of my efforts are for me alone.

I have the valid documents and all is mine.

All the estates and everything. Without
any partner or people who know too much.

I have another surprise for you, Barrett.

Vivian is dead. She paid for her guilt.

And you will pay as well.

Damned pig!

So much spilled blood...

...so much spilled blood because
of this damned piece of paper.

No!
'Yes!

You will die, too.

It won't take long, then it's over.

The poison is fast. In a few
seconds you will follow me.

That can't be true.

That can't be true!

I don't want to die!

The circle is closing.

Finally, you will be paying...

...for the things you have done.

Uriat, Uriat, why?

Water will come down and finish the last act.

Here is the blood that cries out for vengeance.
And the water will come and wash everything away.

It's of no use trying to escape.

You can't run away from death.

10 years have passed since the trial.

Get me out. Uriat, help me!

Uriat, here, help me!

10 years ago until the end of the trial...
it's your fault and the fault

of the man who lays dead beside you
that we the innocents were put to justice.

Put to justice? You are mad.

And it's your fault, and the fault
of the man who lays dead beside you.

Uriat, in God's name. Help me.

You can't let me end like this. It
can't be. It isn't fair. Dear God.

There can't be any witnesses
to this night of truth.

You, too, are an innocent victim.
As we were back then.
