Hey!

Wait a minute, you two.

New boy.

You can't park here.
This is a police pound.

We know.

No, sir.
I don't think you understand.

This is where
the police tow the cars

that are parked
illegally in the street.

Yes, we know that.

So you can't park here.

Well, officer,
I don't think you understand.

We own the Salt & Pepper Club
around the corner,

and we thought we'd park
in the street out there.

Oh, you can't do that.
It'll get towed away.

Where?

Well, here.

That's it.

We thought we'd bring it in
ourselves and save you the trouble.

Yes, but...

Please, don't try to thank us.

Anything we can do
to help the boys in blue,

sir!

But, ah... but... but...

Later. Good night, officer.

Oh, but... yes, but...

[Crowd bustling]

Quiet, please.
Just a minute. Quiet.

Inspector Crock,
what seems to be the trouble?

I'll tell you
what the trouble is.

It's all right.

So, uh, what's the reason then?

I'll give you one guess,
Mr. Pepper.

I don't need any guesses.

It's simple and plain:
Police persecution.

Charlie, will you cool it?

Cool nothing. Now, get out of
the way, will you, Chris, please?

I'll handle this.

Inspector, let me tell you
something right now.

The last week we've had 3 members
of parliament. Right, Chris?

And 5 lords. 5 lords!

You might as well know now.
I don't get mad often,

but nobody treats
my partner and I this way.

I intend to see
that you get busted.

Here's another fine mess
you've got us into.

I was only trying
to protect you...

(magistrate)
Silence in the dock.

Yes, sir. Thanks.

(Crock) Not to mention
resisting arrest,

and the accused were hostile
and abusive.

(Magistrate) Go on, inspector.

The premises are now
closed and sealed.

The owners will have no access

pending a decision on the
cancellation of its license.

Thank you, Inspector Crock.

Mr. Pepper,

it distresses me to see a
member of a distinguished family

in such a degrading position.

(Magistrate) Your conduct
brings disgrace to a famous,

one might almost say,
revered name.

I know nothing about your
family background, Mr. Salt.

Oh, it was just like everyday,
you know.

I was born in Harlem
a-and my family was on relief.

We used to hang around the
corner, me and the cats,

you know, just goin";
"Hey, babe, what's happening?"

Silence!

The record of this club
is a deplorable one,

showing repeated
and overt violations

of the drinking
and gambling laws.

I find the charges proved.

(Magistrate) You will each be
fined the sum of 500 pounds.

With the alternative
of 6 months in prison.

[Spectators exclaiming]

Have you anything to say?

Yes, your worship.

I would like to ask
for time to pay.

As our assets are frozen,
things are a bit tight.

One week to pay. Yes?

Well, my...

You see, judge,
my ass-assets are frozen, too.

And I would like
about 5 years to pay.

One week.

Yes, sir, I understand.
One week.

You know that don't give us
but 7 days, don't you?

I'm so sorry, milord.

A dreadful day for the family.

More than dreadful, Figg.
It's intolerable.

Something must be done.

Hello, Syd, old boy.

You remember Charlie Salt,
my partner. Don't you?

Yes, of course.

By reputation.

(Sydney) I'm surprised you
had the nerve to come here.

What do you want?

To ask for 500 pounds.

Unless you want
a jailbird for a brother.

And if you could slow it down and
make it 1,000, I'd sure appreciate it.

1,000?

Well, you see, I don't have
a kindhearted brother,

and since we're partners I thought
you could take care of my fine, too.

I will pay your fine,
both your fines

if you will both undertake
to leave within the week

and never to set foot
in England again.

What? What?

This is the last time that
you'll ever get anything from me.

I can't prevent you from
inheriting the title, of course.

Although I wish I could.

The castle will be left
to national trust.

Whatever monies I have
will go to charity.

Oh, who cares!

I can hardly expect you
to do the decent thing

and drop dead any quicker
than I will.

But to suggest throwing me...

This is my country, too!

Yeah, and mine.

Yours?

Yeah. Look, forget about me, ok?

But what about Chris, man?
He's your brother!

I don't have to answer to you,
Mr. Salt.

Those are my conditions
for paying your fine.

If you don't like them,
get someone else.

That's exactly what we'll do.
Come on, Charlie.

Charlie, wait.

Listen, brother dear.

I didn't choose to come into
this world 2 minutes after you

and run 2nd ever since.
I'm tired, too.

What do you think
I'd give to retire

to that damn great castle
and put my feet up, too?

I earned my retirement.

I can't help thinking

that I might've had a little
more sympathy and understanding

had our positions been reversed,
and I was in your shoes.

You're not in my shoes,
Christopher, and never will be.

Well, what are we gonna do
for lunch?

You got any money?

I ain't got a cent.

How would you like to have
lunch at grindle's club?

Grindle's club? Isn't that the club
that your brother had you thrown out of?

You just wait right here.
I've got an idea.

Was everything
to your satisfaction, milord?

Absolutely super, Joseph,
super. Thank you.

And the food was good, too.

Uh, may I have my bill, please?

With pleasure, milord, but
may I sign for you, as usual?

I'll take care of everything.

Oh, that's very,
very kind of you.

Oh, I tell you... By the way,

would you be good enough
to order me a taxi?

My chauffeur has the day off.

With the greatest of pleasure.
Certainly, milord.

Thank you.

J[Music playing]

You did it.

You did it, you pulled it off.

I never... you got the voice,
you look like...

[Engine rumbling]

Thank you, my man.

Hey,

you know what the first thing
I'm going to do is?

All right, tell me.
Tell me the first thing.

Thank him for a lovely lunch.

It was a... It was a good lunch.

And then,

I'm going to tell him exactly
what he can do with his money.

His dimes, nickels,
quarters, and his dollars.

Right.

And then,
to show him our true feelings,

I'm gonna punch him
right in the nose.

[Grunting]

You just go and sit across
the street in the coffee shop.

Right.

[Tires screeching]

[Tires screeching]

[Tires screeching]

[Whistles]

Syd?

Sydney, old boy.

Wherever you are,
I just came to tell...

[Inaudible]

[Phone ringing]

(Chris) What do you
think I'd give to retire

to that damn great castle
and put my feet up, too?

(Operator)emergency. Which
service do you require?

Hello? Who's there?

I can't help thinking

that I might've had little
more sympathy and understanding

had our positions been reversed,
and I was in your shoes.

You're not in my shoes,
Christopher, and never will be.

(Sydney) And never will be.

And never will be.

And never will be.

Why not?

[Siren wailing]

[Tires screeching]

Well, I'd just been downstairs
to get my checkbook.

Well, I was helping him out,
you see.

And when I came back,
he was gone.

I suppose it was a heart attack.

No. Not a heart attack,
Lord Pepper.

No? I presumed.

(Doctor)
No. Your brother was murdered.

Murdered?

[Ambulance siren wailing]

Yes, Mr. Salt.
Your partner's been murdered.

You dirty...

(Crock) All right, let him go!

[Yelling]

(Crock) Let him go!

Are you mad?

He killed him.

You are insane.

Are you all right, milord?

I think so.

How dare you attack his lordship

and make allegations
of that kind.

That ain't no allegation, man.

He killed him. They were alone.

They were not alone.

Someone came in
through that window

and shot him
with a poisoned dart.

A kind of African...

African blowpipe gun.

Now, where were you
during this past hour?

Oh no,
I don't believe this, man.

Sure, I'd Kill him, wouldn't I?

I would kill Chris,
my best friend.

Milord, would you like to charge
this man with malicious assault?

No, just forget it.

[Phone ringing]

Milord, the, uh, the telephone.

[Phone continues ringing]

I'm... i'm... i'm... i'm...

[Phone continues ringing]

(Belton) Lord Pepper?

Speaking.

What's this about delaying your report?
You've been back for 24 hours.

We want it urgently.

Oh... oh... oh, yes... yes.
The report.

Yeah, well, I... I can't talk now.
People are here.

Behaving very oddly.

Didn't sound himself at all.

And the report?

Well, he couldn't talk,
people there.

We'll try him again later.

That will be all
for now, milord.

And thank you
for being so patient.

Thank you, inspector.

Come on, you. Out.

That's all right, inspector.

I want to have a word with him.

Milord, this man is dangerous.

I can take care
of myself and him.

Very good, milord.

You lift one finger
against his lordship,

and I'll send
you down for 5 years.

Milord.

Would you like a drink?

I don't wanna drink with you.

Quite.

I understand how you feel, Salt.

Well, if I were you,
I'd be pretty scared.

My dear fellow, be sensible.

[Clears throat]

Why would I kill Christopher?

Just to save myself 500 pounds?

I don't know.

But I intend to find out.

Look, you wanted to
talk to me. What about?

Well, judging from your rather violent
reaction to my brother's death,

I gather that you were
rather attached to him.

Attached?

Let me tell you something that
you're not gonna understand.

Because, see, I... I never
really understood it myself.

But he liked me.

See, he was the best friend
that I had in the entire world.

He liked me.

Well, uh,

now that he's...

Now that you're by yourself,
what are you going to do?

6 months, remember?

Oh, you...

You needn't.
I... I mean, I'll pay your fine.

And you can come and work for
me at... at Pepperworth Castle.

Why? Particularly, why me?

Oh, well...

Perhaps I misjudged you. You... you
seem like a loyal sort of fellow,

and... I need someone like that.

What for, man,
to lower the drawbridge?

No, no,
nothing menial, I assure you.

I'm planning a lot of changes
down there, you see.

And I need a sort of...
Well, a controller.

Someone who can run the estate.

Well, it's better than
6 months in jail, isn't it?

Why don't you think it over?

Well,

I don't get it.

But I'll go with it.

'Cause I just gotta find out
what makes that head turn around.

(Preacher) There are some of
US who strive unremittingly

[bell tolling]
To make our gifts precious

acceptable in his sight.

There are others who care not
what they are or what they become.

Christopher Pepper was struck
down in dastardly fashion

at the very prime of life.

I did not know
the deceased personally,

but whatever his earthly life
may have been,

let us pray that he is now in
some place of eternal refreshment

and safely across
the heavenly bar.

Poor old Charlie.

Shall I tell him?

(Preacher)
"I am the resurrection..."

Guess I should.

(Preacher) "He that believeth
in me, though he were dead"

"yet shall he live.

And whosoever liveth and
believeth in me shall never die."

No. Better wait and see
if I get away with it.

You miserable little traitor.

How could you work
for a man like that?

You couldn't say no to a
comfortable pad, could you?

"Yes, milord. No, milord."

Charlie Salt, listen to me.

I never thought
I'd ever say this to you,

but you're the lowest, man.

You're a rat.

In fact, it's worse than that.

You're a stone Uncle Tom.

Well, you listen to me,
and you listen good, baby.

I'll be an Uncle Tom.

I'll be the best one
he's ever had.

I'll run his errands and I'll
shine his shoes. You dig?

Because I have a hunch
he killed Chris.

And if he did,

I'm gonna kill him.

(Preacher)
Even so in Christ shall all...

That's Sydney Pepper, all right.

You killed the wrong man.

How could I tell? They're twins.
He had his back to me.

Well, get him now.

Right. But get him!

All right, all right.

Go on, man,
what are you waiting for?

You missed him, you dope.

He moved his ruddy head.

Well, get him now!

All right, all right.

Well, that bloody turf gave way.

[Shouting]

[Grunting]

[Charlie shouting]

Wait!

[Groaning]

[Grunting]

Charlie!

(Chris) Easy.

[Grunting]

[Charlie shouting]

[Charlie grunting]

[Grunting]

[Charlie exclaiming]

(Chris) And one.

[Charlie and Chris groaning]

Shoo.

[Phone ringing]

Um, um, Salt, would you
answer the phone, please?

If it's some man about a report,

tell him I've lost it.

What?

Lord!

Oh, lord!

(Chris) Don't call
me lord, I'm not god.

Milord,

you ain't gonna believe what
this cat's saying on the phone.

He wants to know

if you're gonna hold your ball.

What?

That's what he said,

and if you ain't gonna hold it,

do you wanna drop it?

Hello?

Oh, yes. Yes, Tombs.

Yes. Yes, a sad day. Thank you.

What?

Oh, yes, yes. Yes, I think
we should proceed with it.

Seeing as it's for charity.

We'll be driving down
after lunch.

Thank you.

A charity ball
at the castle this week.

Milord.

Yes?

Your vest, it was in
the wastepaper basket.

You were going to throw it away?

Yes, I meant to.

You can have it if you want.

Milord, milord, Miss Tomkins
presents her apologies.

Couldn't be here. Gone to town

to the doctor's
about her bad knee.

Thank you, Tombs.

This is the upstairs maid
I was telling you about.

Still has a glint in her eye.

Tomkins, eh? That's a
good bet for you, Salt.

Bad knee, should slow
her down to a mere walk.

Milord, a welcome ginger beer
for you and your friend.

This is our housekeeper, Alice.

(Alice)
I'm terribly sorry, milord.

[Mumbles]

[Bells tolling]

Well, these are...
These are my humble lodgings.

Oh, this doesn't keep you off
the streets, I'll tell you that.

Uh, Tombs, I'd like Mr. Salt
to have the Emperor Suite.

Will you take him along?

Yes. And I'll see you later.

[Door closing]

I'm sure glad

the lord decided to modernize
the bedrooms at least

'cause otherwise a castle like
this can get pretty spooky.

Oh, so sorry, sir,
I neglected to get the key.

I shan't be half a moment, sir.

Don't hurry.

Oh, but I shall, sir.

That's soft.

That's a soft bed, boy.

[Footsteps approaching]

Mr. Salt, let me assist you.

Thank you.

Give me your hand.
I'll help you up.

That's really a soft bed.

But indeed, best down, sir.

Now, sir,
I'd best show you around.

Yeah, I think that's best.

If you come with me, sir.
That's better.

Are you all right, sir?

Oh, I'm right behind you.

Good, that's better.

[Footsteps pattering]

Bathroom here, sir.

Gas hot water geyser here.

Better show you
how it works, hadn't I?

Yeah, I think you better.

You were master
Christopher's partner, sir.

Yes, I was.

Ah, there was a lovely boy.

You liked him?

Liked him? Loved him.

There will never be
another like him.

Tombs, I think you and I
are gonna get along famously.

Any friend of master Christopher's
is a friend of mine, sir.

Thank you.

Now, sir, what you have to do
is to light this little jet

and then you turn the tap in

and the, uh...

The main burners light up.
I see.

Right? Right.

Now, sir, remember.
Little jet first.

[Crashing]

[Springs twanging]

[Grunting]

Was that quite clear, sir?

Or shall I demonstrate again?

Oh, no. No more demonstrations.

I have it all in my mind now.

Yes, but you see, it's very
useful to have a geyser, sir.

I don't want a geezer
or a geyser.

I have no use
for that kind of thing.

Whatever happened to just taps?
You just turn it on,

like hot, cold?

That's all I need.
Do you understand that?

You get hot and cold
from the geyser.

From the geezer? That's right.

I'll use a wash and dry.
I don't really need a tub.

I'll stay this color anyway, no
matter how many times I wash.

So that's it for me.
See, I don't need no geezer,

and I don't need no more
any kind of instructions.

I'm not gonna go see the...

I came across this
in the hall. Is it yours?

Yes, it's mine.

I don't think
you'll be needing it here.

We don't use this kind of
weapon for sporting shooting.

I didn't bring this
for sport, sport.

I brought this
for something else.

And these ain't no blanks.

Miss you, pally.

Now look,
I don't like Lord Pepper,

and I don't give a damn
what happens to him personally

but I want his report
before they get him.

Pepper must be aware
of the danger, sir.

So there has to be
a good reason for this delay.

Oh, I see.

While we are waiting
on his lordship's pleasure,

another fortune in diamonds
gets smuggled into the country.

Now, damn it,

you said he was on the verge
of cracking the ring wide open.

That was
the impression he gave us.

I don't want impressions!

I want facts!

Now get someone to Pepper
and get that report.

[Clock ticking]

[Clinking]

[Clock continues ticking]

[Bell clanging]

[Inaudible]

[Clears throat]

I trust
it's to your liking, sir.

Chateau Lafite Rothschild, 1955.

Oh, that's about the same year
you left the kitchen, huh?

Oh, never mind.

Ah, marvelous.

Velvet.

Master Christopher's
favorite, sir.

It's gotta be a groove.

[Clears throat]

[Mumbling] Uh, good morn...

Good evening, Tate, uh, Tombs.

What the devil is that?

Your warm milk, milord.

Oh, thank you.

Would you care
to taste it, milord?

No.

[Exclaims]

Excellent wine, milord.

You should try some.

You don't know
what you're missing.

Perhaps I don't.

Um, maybe I should try some
just this once.

Well, it is your wine.

Uh, why don't you move down here

and bring the bottle with you?

That's a good idea.

Tell me, what did you and Christopher
do in your spare time to relax?

Well, we used to have fun.

There was always, you know,
the blues and the broads.

But most of all, we just sort
of had laughs, that's all.

What else did you two do?

I mean, it couldn't have been
all booze...

Whiskey and girls?

We used to play gin a lot.
Gin rummy.

That Chris.

He was really a champ, man,
I could never beat him.

What fun.

What great fun.
You must teach me.

Milord, Miss Tomkins has
returned from the doctor's

and would like to present
her compliments.

Yes,
then wheel her in, would you?

And prepare the card table
in the library.

Yes, milord.

Miss Tomkins.

I think she's the one
with housemaid's knee.

Good evening, milord.

I'm so sorry I wasn't here
when you arrived.

[Clearing throat] Oh yes...

Uh, it's quite... quite all right.

T-t-this is Mr. Salt.

Mr. Salt? Hello.

I've sorted out
your correspondence.

Um, everything can wait
till the morning.

Uh, uh, good. Good.

Same hour then?

Yes, yes.

Good night, milord. Mr. Salt.

Good night.

Oh, dear. What?

I hate to be a bore, but can
I just ask you one... one thing?

Anything you want, milord.

All right. Well, I have 3 sixes

3 kings and... and 4 aces.
Now w-what does that mean?

You put the cards down on
the table, and you say "gin."

Oh, I see.
Now in that order, I mean,

the kings go first
and then the...

Just put the cards down
on the table, milord.

Oh, very well. There we are.

Now I've gotta count
what I've got in my hand.

10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60,

70, 80. Gin is 30.

And, um... Oh, my goodness.

Double, is it, you said? Yes.

Yes, that's 200.

You've won the first game
on a blitz, milord.

Oh, a blitz?

Yes, that means the other
person didn't get nothing.

I see.

I'm... I'm in that column, I see.

Yes, and this one
is all over for me.

So then we do it again?

Yes, we do it again.

You just deal the cards,
will you, please?

Yes.

[Clock chiming]

Oh, terrible hand. Ghastly.

Oh, that's too bad.

Let's see now.

Will that do for me?
Put this over here.

[Ringing]

I say. Right in the middle.

I do believe it's gin again.

So, Salt,
does it make any difference

if it goes from... from
the ace through to the...

Where... where did you learn
to do that?

Oh, that... that. My old
nanny used to do that.

She had terrible arthritis, she
used to do that all the time.

Nanny.

20, 30, 40, 60,

64 and 6...

♪♪[Humming]

Now, milord,
you will learn a lesson.

The knock card is 4. Watch this.

3 eights, 3 sixes,

4, 3, and a 5, and back at a 4.

I knock with 2.

Oh, I say, splendid.

But what do I do? Uh, oh.

You just count up all
that jazz you have. Yes.

I see 3 sevens, yes.

3 Jacks,

3 fives and that
leaves me with one.

That's an undercut.

What?

That means you get 26 points.

Oh, jolly hockey stick.

Just one more set.
One 3 games across,

because I've gotta get...

What is that? Huh, huh, huh?
Come on, we play.

[Clock chiming] Well, it is
getting awfully sort of late.

And we've got a big, big
day tomorrow, you know.

Big day tomorrow?

Yes. Why don't we just
sort of put it away?

Oh, for a hot bath
and bed, what?

Listen, speaking of baths, mmm?

What am I going to do about one?
Oh, use mine.

Hey, thanks.

In... in there tonight,

you had the wine and playing
cards, you were much like Chris.

It was like
being with him again.

It's a shame you never
knew what a great guy he was.

Well, see you in a minute. Hmm.

[Door opening]

[Door closing]

What's the matter, Sydney?

Nothing, milord, of importance.

I came here merely to tell you

that you were right all along.

Oh, about what?

About everything.

The job, the castle,
the atmosphere.

So you're beginning
to like it down here, huh?

Like it? Like it!
Love it. I love it.

Love it.

You were also right about
Chris, of course. Huh?

Well, he wasn't
a winner at all, was he?

He was a bit of a loser.

You've changed your tune,

It's because of you, milord.

I mean, you're the type of man

You represent all the...

You have dignity, society.

You have a great life.

Well, milord, you know,
a cheer here and there.

I am a bit of an actor.

But in point of fact,

I didn't like him.

Why not?

Because he didn't like me.

You see, it was a bit
of a game we always played.

You know,
that... that sort of thing.

What I mean is, he cheated
me, I cheated him...

And, of course,
there was always the ladies.

Oh, the beautiful ladies.

[Squeals]

Actually, he was
a bit of a loser there, too.

I say, steady.

No, I mean it actually
because, you see,

he would pick them up
for a couple of weeks,

and then they would drop him,

and then, of course, guess
who they would pick up then?

[Snickers]

Little me.

Oh.

The latest one, what was her name again?
Let me think.

Oh, yes. Janine, Janine.
That was her name.

Oh, he was crazy about her, sir.

Really crazy about her.

I can hear her now,
saying to him:

"Oh, Christopher,
I must leave you now,

I must go home to mother."

Here's the mother
she went home to!

[Guffawing]

Out. Out.

Was it something I said, milord?
Get out.

Was it something I said?
Out! Out!

I want you out of here. Wait a minute.
Wait. Wait. Wait.

I have an idea. What?

Why don't I get out?

Out.

Out!

Anything you say, milord.

But remember,
if you but need a thing,

open up your door and yell for
the twit, and I shall be here.

Can I do anything for you
now, milord, before I leave?

I suggest you get rid of that
ridiculous British accent.

It doesn't suit you.

It doesn't suit me?

It doesn't suit me!

Well, suppose I say to you

that we gonna
meet later on down the line,

story of big brother, huh.

and then steals
a million in diamonds.

neat little package?

those friends of yours will
put your feet up permanently

be a murderer, too,

that's why we've called
you in, inspector.

Murder? Who?

His brother Christopher.
It'll be guesswork, of course,

but we think Christopher Pepper may
have discovered what he was up to,

and perhaps
tried to blackmail him.

have killed him to shut his mouth.
