1:03 → 1:12
SPEAKER_03 The city you consider as home is never so attractive as when you return to
it after long and difficult times in other parts of the world.
1:12 → 1:15
SPEAKER_03 My name is Dr. John Watson.
1:15 → 1:22
SPEAKER_03 I had served and been wounded in the more remote regions of Afghanistan,
and had been discharged from the army with specific instructions to
rest.
1:22 → 1:27
SPEAKER_03 The sight of London again was already working its soothing tonic.
1:27 → 1:32
SPEAKER_03 As I rode through the familiar streets, I never suspected that a chance
introduction
1:32 → 1:38
SPEAKER_03 would lead me into the most amazing adventure of my entire life.
1:38 → 1:40
SPEAKER_03 What's an old man?
1:40 → 1:42
SPEAKER_03 Hello, how have you been?
1:42 → 1:43
SPEAKER_03 It's good to see you.
1:43 → 1:45
SPEAKER_03 Not as well as you, obviously.
1:45 → 1:48
SPEAKER_03 You look great, old man.
1:48 → 1:49
SPEAKER_03 I heard you were wounded.
1:49 → 1:51
SPEAKER_03 Well, it couldn't have been much worse.
1:51 → 1:52
SPEAKER_03 So glad.
1:52 → 1:53
SPEAKER_03 Care for a drink?
1:53 → 1:59
SPEAKER_05 I'll have one.
1:59 → 2:01
SPEAKER_03 Well, what are your plans now?
2:02 → 2:03
SPEAKER_03 You're nothing really at the moment.
2:03 → 2:05
SPEAKER_03 I'm looking for lodgings.
2:05 → 2:10
SPEAKER_03 Trying to solve the old problem of comfortable quarters at a reasonable
price.
2:10 → 2:10
SPEAKER_03 That's odd.
2:10 → 2:13
SPEAKER_03 The second man today that's used that expression.
2:13 → 2:15
SPEAKER_00 Really?
2:15 → 2:16
SPEAKER_03 Who's the other?
2:16 → 2:17
SPEAKER_03 Well, you wouldn't know him.
2:17 → 2:21
SPEAKER_03 He's doing some work in the chemical laboratory at the hospital.
2:21 → 2:23
SPEAKER_03 Might be interesting.
2:23 → 2:29
SPEAKER_03 Yes, well, I wouldn't mind sharing a flat with somebody if... if he was
all right.
2:29 → 2:30
SPEAKER_00 Well, I...
2:33 → 2:35
SPEAKER_04 Anything wrong?
2:35 → 2:35
SPEAKER_03 Oh, no.
2:35 → 2:38
SPEAKER_03 He's rather strange.
2:38 → 2:39
SPEAKER_03 Oh, what's wrong with him?
2:39 → 2:40
SPEAKER_03 Oh, nothing wrong with Holmes.
2:40 → 2:42
SPEAKER_03 That's his name, Sherlock Holmes.
2:42 → 2:44
SPEAKER_03 Oh, I saw him this morning.
2:44 → 2:47
SPEAKER_03 He was doing some research with a corpse.
2:47 → 2:49
SPEAKER_03 Oh, what was he doing?
2:49 → 2:52
SPEAKER_03 He was beating it with a stick.
2:52 → 2:53
SPEAKER_03 I beg your pardon?
2:53 → 2:54
SPEAKER_03 Did you ring, sir?
2:54 → 2:56
SPEAKER_03 Touché, this fellow.
2:56 → 2:59
SPEAKER_03 Very good, sir.
2:59 → 3:02
SPEAKER_03 What did you say this Sherlock Holmes fellow was doing?
3:04 → 3:07
SPEAKER_03 He was beating a corpse with a stick.
3:07 → 3:09
SPEAKER_03 Oh?
3:09 → 3:11
SPEAKER_03 What in heaven's name did he want to do that for?
3:11 → 3:16
SPEAKER_03 He wanted to find out if it was possible to inflict a bruise on a body after
death.
3:16 → 3:16
SPEAKER_03 Why?
3:16 → 3:21
SPEAKER_03 I don't know.
3:21 → 3:23
SPEAKER_03 Are you asking?
3:23 → 3:25
SPEAKER_03 That's another strange thing about this Holmes.
3:25 → 3:27
SPEAKER_03 Somehow, one never thinks to question him.
3:48 → 4:16
SPEAKER_03 Well it really works you realize you've just entered the greatest
chapter in the history of forensic medicine you're not the one yes I am
what works foolproof test for hemoglobin you realize what this means of
course no I don't you must be Sherlock Holmes it will create a revolution
in criminal investigation yes I'm Holmes how did you know I was what
because you've just come back from Afghanistan how do you do how you do
4:18 → 4:21
SPEAKER_03 How did you know I'd just come back from Afghanistan?
4:21 → 4:22
SPEAKER_03 Well, it's written all over you.
4:22 → 4:28
SPEAKER_03 The problem has generally been that a man is suspected of a crime months
after the crime is committed.
4:28 → 4:33
SPEAKER_03 Then when they find bloodstains on objects of clothing, they can't be
sure if it's blood, mud, or rust stains.
4:33 → 4:34
SPEAKER_03 But this solves the whole thing, of course.
4:34 → 4:35
SPEAKER_05 Of course.
4:35 → 4:39
SPEAKER_05 Of course.
4:39 → 4:42
SPEAKER_05 Stanford told me you're looking for someone to share a flat you'd find.
4:43 → 4:48
SPEAKER_03 You know if this test had been in existence a year ago, it would have meant
that von Bishop of Frankfurt would most certainly have been hung.
4:48 → 4:53
SPEAKER_03 And that goes for Mason of Bradford, Muller and O'Fay, naturally.
4:53 → 4:54
SPEAKER_03 Naturally.
4:54 → 4:56
SPEAKER_03 Who are these people?
4:56 → 4:58
SPEAKER_03 You do know I'm delighted to meet you, Watson.
4:58 → 4:59
SPEAKER_03 I think you'll like the flat.
4:59 → 5:01
SPEAKER_03 It's in Baker Street, by the way.
5:01 → 5:03
SPEAKER_03 Oh, we could pop round this afternoon and have a look at it, if you care.
5:03 → 5:05
SPEAKER_03 Yes, oh yes, rather, I'd like that.
5:05 → 5:05
SPEAKER_03 Good.
5:05 → 5:07
SPEAKER_03 Do you mind if I play the violin?
5:07 → 5:08
SPEAKER_03 No, go right ahead.
5:08 → 5:09
SPEAKER_03 No, no, I mean now.
5:09 → 5:10
SPEAKER_03 I mean when we're sharing the flat.
5:10 → 5:11
SPEAKER_03 Oh, no, of course not.
5:11 → 5:12
SPEAKER_03 I like a bit of good music.
5:12 → 5:13
SPEAKER_03 Oh, good.
5:13 → 5:14
SPEAKER_03 I'm afraid I'm not very good.
5:14 → 5:14
SPEAKER_03 Oh.
5:14 → 5:16
SPEAKER_05 Oh, tell me, Holmes.
5:16 → 5:17
SPEAKER_03 Yes?
5:17 → 5:20
SPEAKER_03 How do you know I just got back from Afghanistan?
5:20 → 5:21
SPEAKER_03 Well, it's obvious.
5:21 → 5:22
SPEAKER_05 Now, that's what you said before.
5:22 → 5:23
SPEAKER_05 It isn't a bit obvious.
5:23 → 5:24
SPEAKER_03 You're a doctor.
5:24 → 5:26
SPEAKER_03 That much we know.
5:26 → 5:27
SPEAKER_03 Much with the air of a military man.
5:27 → 5:29
SPEAKER_03 Therefore an army doctor.
5:29 → 5:30
SPEAKER_03 You've acquired a sunburn.
5:30 → 5:34
SPEAKER_03 I know it's not your natural color because your wrists are white.
5:34 → 5:36
SPEAKER_03 Your eyes tell me that you've recently been ill.
5:36 → 5:38
SPEAKER_03 I'd say some sort of tropical fever.
5:39 → 5:43
SPEAKER_03 Do you use your left arm stiffly as though you've sustained a wound?
5:43 → 5:49
SPEAKER_03 Now the problem becomes, where would an army doctor contracted a fever
to sustain a wound?
5:49 → 5:58
SPEAKER_03 The answer, my dear Watson, is in the present campaign in Afghanistan,
naturally.
5:58 → 5:58
SPEAKER_03 Naturally?
5:58 → 6:02
SPEAKER_03 Of course, it's obvious.
6:02 → 6:02
SPEAKER_03 Naturally!
6:02 → 6:07
SPEAKER_03 We examined the rooms at 221 B Baker Street that afternoon and promptly
moved in on the following day.
6:08 → 6:12
SPEAKER_03 I had, at this point, known Sherlock Holmes for only 24 hours.
6:12 → 6:23
SPEAKER_03 But the man's fantastic powers of perception, coupled with the almost
unpredictable personality I'd ever encountered, kept me in a state of
constant surprise, when I wasn't being shocked.
6:23 → 6:28
SPEAKER_03 It was unbelievable, the things he knew, and the things he didn't know.
6:28 → 6:33
SPEAKER_05 Now really, my dear Holmes, you mean to tell me you didn't know that the
Earth moved around the Sun?
6:33 → 6:33
SPEAKER_03 Really?
6:33 → 6:35
SPEAKER_03 Well, every schoolchild knows that.
6:35 → 6:39
SPEAKER_03 Well, now I know it, too, and I shall promptly proceed to forget it.
6:39 → 6:41
SPEAKER_03 But why?
6:41 → 6:42
SPEAKER_04 Yes, why?
6:42 → 6:45
SPEAKER_04 Why should I remember it?
6:45 → 6:48
SPEAKER_03 Well, because it's a natural phenomenon.
6:48 → 6:49
SPEAKER_03 Well, is it important?
6:49 → 6:50
SPEAKER_03 Does it affect us?
6:50 → 6:54
SPEAKER_03 If you told me the Earth went round the Moon, would it make any possible
difference to our way of life?
6:54 → 6:57
SPEAKER_03 Well, to put it that way, no.
6:57 → 7:01
SPEAKER_03 Then it's useless information, and I shall do my best to forget it.
7:01 → 7:04
SPEAKER_03 I advise you to do the same.
7:05 → 7:10
SPEAKER_03 At times, I thought the man was joking and simply having a bit of fun at my
expense.
7:10 → 7:13
SPEAKER_03 But I soon learned that he was in dead earnest.
7:13 → 7:18
SPEAKER_03 I also, unknown to him, made a brief classification of the man's
knowledge.
7:18 → 7:19
SPEAKER_03 Literature?
7:19 → 7:20
SPEAKER_03 Nothing.
7:20 → 7:21
SPEAKER_03 Philosophy?
7:21 → 7:22
SPEAKER_03 Nothing.
7:22 → 7:24
SPEAKER_03 Astronomy?
7:24 → 7:25
SPEAKER_03 Nothing.
7:25 → 7:25
SPEAKER_03 Politics?
7:25 → 7:27
SPEAKER_03 Disinterested.
7:27 → 7:28
SPEAKER_03 Botany?
7:28 → 7:33
SPEAKER_03 He knew everything there was to know about poisons and absolutely
nothing about practical gardening.
7:33 → 7:34
SPEAKER_03 Chemistry?
7:34 → 7:34
SPEAKER_03 Profound.
7:35 → 7:37
SPEAKER_03 Sensational literature?
7:37 → 7:42
SPEAKER_03 Without question, Sherlock Holmes knew the details of every horror
perpetrated in the last hundred years.
7:42 → 7:58
SPEAKER_03 I believe we have a visitor.
7:58 → 8:00
SPEAKER_03 Really?
8:00 → 8:01
SPEAKER_03 Who's coming here?
8:01 → 8:02
SPEAKER_03 I believe so.
8:02 → 8:04
SPEAKER_03 I would also say he's a retired sergeant of the Marines.
8:05 → 8:05
SPEAKER_03 Oh, you know the man?
8:05 → 8:08
SPEAKER_03 I've never clapped hands with him before in my life.
8:08 → 8:12
SPEAKER_05 Well, in that case, that's one of the wildest statements I ever heard.
8:12 → 8:16
SPEAKER_03 How can you possibly guess he's a retired sergeant of the Marines you've
never seen him?
8:16 → 8:23
SPEAKER_03 I guess, my dear Watson, a calculated deduction.
8:23 → 8:25
SPEAKER_03 Yes, he is coming up here.
8:25 → 8:29
SPEAKER_05 Do you mind if I ask you, Mr. Pershing?
8:29 → 8:30
SPEAKER_03 Oh, by all means.
8:30 → 8:33
SPEAKER_03 Now, where did I put my violin case?
8:33 → 8:33
SPEAKER_03 Hmm?
8:33 → 8:34
SPEAKER_03 Oh, it's over here.
8:38 → 8:41
SPEAKER_03 Ah, my old friend.
8:41 → 8:46
SPEAKER_05 Come in.
8:46 → 8:47
SPEAKER_03 Excuse me, gentlemen.
8:47 → 8:48
SPEAKER_03 I have a message here for Mr. Sherlock Holmes.
8:48 → 8:49
SPEAKER_03 Thank you.
8:49 → 9:00
SPEAKER_03 Excuse me.
9:00 → 9:02
SPEAKER_03 Sir?
9:02 → 9:05
SPEAKER_03 Do you mind telling me your occupation?
9:05 → 9:06
SPEAKER_03 Not at all, sir.
9:06 → 9:09
SPEAKER_03 I'm a civil servant employed by the police department.
9:09 → 9:11
SPEAKER_03 Thank you.
9:11 → 9:13
SPEAKER_03 I just won, then.
9:13 → 9:16
SPEAKER_04 Not at all, sir.
9:16 → 9:19
SPEAKER_03 How long have you been with the police department?
9:19 → 9:20
SPEAKER_03 Just a year, sir.
9:20 → 9:22
SPEAKER_03 Before that, I was a sergeant in the Marines.
9:22 → 9:26
SPEAKER_03 Good day, gentlemen.
9:26 → 9:28
SPEAKER_03 How did you know?
9:28 → 9:29
SPEAKER_03 An interesting letter, Watson.
9:29 → 9:31
SPEAKER_03 A very interesting letter.
9:31 → 9:33
SPEAKER_03 Perhaps you'd like to come with me.
9:33 → 9:33
SPEAKER_03 Where?
9:33 → 9:35
SPEAKER_03 To catch a murderer, of course.
9:36 → 9:47
SPEAKER_03 Of course.
9:47 → 9:51
SPEAKER_03 How did you know that that man was an ex-Sergeant of Marines?
9:51 → 9:53
SPEAKER_03 Who?
9:53 → 9:54
SPEAKER_03 A messenger from the police.
9:54 → 9:57
SPEAKER_03 Oh, yes, yes, the retired Sergeant of Marines.
9:57 → 9:58
SPEAKER_03 That's what I said.
9:58 → 10:04
SPEAKER_03 Well, there's nothing mysterious about such observations, my dear
Watson, but unfortunately, when explained, they lose their romantic
aura of mystery.
10:05 → 10:08
SPEAKER_03 My decision was based on observation and logical deduction.
10:08 → 10:12
SPEAKER_03 The man had a large anchor tattooed on the back of his head.
10:12 → 10:15
SPEAKER_03 This was visible from our window.
10:15 → 10:19
SPEAKER_03 I admit I didn't notice it at the time, but since you mention it, I think
there was an anchor.
10:19 → 10:20
SPEAKER_03 Oh, there was indeed.
10:20 → 10:24
SPEAKER_03 He also wore regulation sideburns and had a slight nautical robe.
10:24 → 10:27
SPEAKER_03 Thus I judged him a marine.
10:27 → 10:31
SPEAKER_03 A guess, I grant you, but only a refinement of guesses one makes every
day.
10:31 → 10:35
SPEAKER_03 Don't be so disgruntled, Watson.
10:35 → 10:37
SPEAKER_03 Test your own powers of observation.
10:37 → 10:40
SPEAKER_03 We are entering the perfect situation.
10:40 → 10:40
SPEAKER_03 Oh?
10:40 → 10:41
SPEAKER_03 What are we entering?
10:41 → 10:58
SPEAKER_03 A house that holds a murdered man.
10:58 → 11:00
SPEAKER_03 Is Inspector Lestrade inside?
11:00 → 11:00
SPEAKER_03 Yes, sir.
11:00 → 11:01
SPEAKER_03 May I have your name, please?
11:01 → 11:02
SPEAKER_03 Yes, Sherlock Holmes.
11:02 → 11:03
SPEAKER_03 This is Dr. Watson.
11:03 → 11:04
SPEAKER_03 Oh, that's quite all right, sir.
11:04 → 11:07
SPEAKER_03 Inspector Lestrade gave instructions to admit you.
11:07 → 11:09
SPEAKER_03 Oh, good.
11:09 → 11:12
SPEAKER_03 Oh, by the way, has the body been removed?
11:12 → 11:14
SPEAKER_03 No, sir, but the medical examiner's just called.
11:14 → 11:15
SPEAKER_03 Oh, thank you.
11:15 → 11:17
SPEAKER_03 Let's hope they haven't moved things about too much.
11:17 → 11:21
SPEAKER_03 The police forces of the world seem to have an organized science of
messing things about.
11:21 → 11:22
SPEAKER_03 Oh, I wouldn't say that.
11:22 → 11:24
SPEAKER_03 Now then, move along, Barry.
11:24 → 11:25
SPEAKER_03 Move along.
11:25 → 11:26
SPEAKER_03 There's nothing to see today.
11:26 → 11:26
SPEAKER_03 I don't know.
11:26 → 11:30
SPEAKER_03 I swear I don't know.
11:30 → 11:31
SPEAKER_01 I tried to help him.
11:33 → 11:36
SPEAKER_01 Don't you believe me?
11:36 → 11:37
SPEAKER_01 I had to do what I could.
11:37 → 11:39
SPEAKER_01 It was instinctive.
11:39 → 11:41
SPEAKER_02 Instinctive for a woman like you to commit murder?
11:41 → 11:42
SPEAKER_01 That's not true.
11:42 → 11:44
SPEAKER_01 You know it's not true.
11:44 → 11:47
SPEAKER_01 I know you hate me, but you can't believe I'd do a thing like this.
11:47 → 11:49
SPEAKER_02 Yes, I can, and I do.
11:49 → 11:50
SPEAKER_02 Please.
11:50 → 11:52
SPEAKER_02 She's a murderess.
11:52 → 11:53
SPEAKER_02 You know it as well as I.
11:54 → 11:56
SPEAKER_02 She murdered your brother.
11:56 → 11:57
SPEAKER_02 It's a lie!
11:57 → 11:59
SPEAKER_02 Yes, it's a lie.
11:59 → 12:01
SPEAKER_02 Our story's a lie.
12:01 → 12:05
SPEAKER_02 The relationship you had with my son was a lie.
12:05 → 12:07
SPEAKER_02 My son's been murdered.
12:07 → 12:09
SPEAKER_02 This girl's a murderer.
12:09 → 12:14
SPEAKER_02 Why she did it, what her motive was, I don't know.
12:14 → 12:19
SPEAKER_02 They were engaged without my blessing.
12:19 → 12:22
SPEAKER_02 I can only be grateful that she gains nothing by her crime.
12:23 → 12:24
SPEAKER_02 Your duty now is to convict her.
12:24 → 12:28
SPEAKER_02 Just a moment, please.
12:28 → 12:39
SPEAKER_04 Notice the angle of incision, Watson.
12:39 → 12:39
SPEAKER_03 No.
12:39 → 12:42
SPEAKER_03 The force of the blow and the general **** of the upper region of
the chest.
12:42 → 12:45
SPEAKER_03 How long would you estimate before loss of consciousness?
12:45 → 12:48
SPEAKER_03 Well, it's difficult to say.
12:48 → 12:49
SPEAKER_03 Ninety seconds.
12:52 → 12:53
SPEAKER_03 Oh, between the two.
12:53 → 12:54
SPEAKER_03 I see.
12:54 → 12:55
SPEAKER_03 And death?
12:55 → 12:59
SPEAKER_03 Surely there are, sir.
12:59 → 13:00
SPEAKER_03 Three or four, I'd say.
13:00 → 13:02
SPEAKER_03 Thank you, Watson.
13:02 → 13:05
SPEAKER_03 All right, take him out.
13:05 → 13:07
SPEAKER_03 Ah, forgive the interruption.
13:07 → 13:09
SPEAKER_03 I would prefer to have been invited before the party had been moved.
13:09 → 13:11
SPEAKER_03 I thought you'd be interested, Holmes.
13:11 → 13:12
SPEAKER_04 Oh, thank you, Mr. Hayes.
13:12 → 13:16
SPEAKER_03 Oh, may I introduce my friend, Dr. Watson, Inspector of the Strait of
Scotland Yard?
13:16 → 13:16
SPEAKER_03 How do you do?
13:16 → 13:18
SPEAKER_03 How do you do?
13:18 → 13:20
SPEAKER_03 So you're completely stuck here, Mr. Hayes.
13:20 → 13:21
SPEAKER_03 What do you mean?
13:22 → 13:23
SPEAKER_03 Well, you thought I'd be interested.
13:23 → 13:26
SPEAKER_03 Why don't you admit it?
13:26 → 13:28
SPEAKER_03 You're in a jam.
13:28 → 13:30
SPEAKER_03 My innocent cabinet worked, don't you think?
13:30 → 13:32
SPEAKER_03 What you say isn't exactly true, Holmes.
13:32 → 13:33
SPEAKER_03 I've done you a favor.
13:33 → 13:34
SPEAKER_03 This is an interesting case.
13:34 → 13:39
SPEAKER_03 Of course, there are one or two unexplained details, but I don't believe
it'll be long before we're clear.
13:39 → 13:40
SPEAKER_03 What's your principal problem?
13:40 → 13:42
SPEAKER_03 There's no motive.
13:42 → 13:45
SPEAKER_03 I found this girl with a knife in her hand.
13:45 → 13:47
SPEAKER_03 My brother lying dead on the floor.
13:47 → 13:48
SPEAKER_01 I found Peter on the floor.
13:48 → 13:49
SPEAKER_01 I tried to help him.
13:49 → 13:51
SPEAKER_03 By stabbing him?
13:51 → 13:53
SPEAKER_01 By removing the knife.
13:53 → 13:56
SPEAKER_01 Anybody would have done the same thing.
13:56 → 13:59
SPEAKER_01 I loved him.
13:59 → 14:03
SPEAKER_03 My dear young lady, there's no cause for you to alarm yourself.
14:03 → 14:06
SPEAKER_03 No one's accusing you of... Well, of what happened?
14:06 → 14:10
SPEAKER_03 This would be a clear-cut case if only she had a reason for murdering him.
14:10 → 14:14
SPEAKER_03 There happened to be a policeman outside the house during the murder and
he said that no one can then except her.
14:15 → 14:16
SPEAKER_03 Well, what about the others?
14:16 → 14:17
SPEAKER_03 Who benefits by her death?
14:17 → 14:17
SPEAKER_03 Well, no one.
14:17 → 14:22
SPEAKER_03 The estate was left in such a way that if he died before he married,
everything went to charity.
14:22 → 14:28
SPEAKER_03 My dear Inspector Lestrade, he didn't die before he married.
14:28 → 14:35
SPEAKER_03 This young lady and the man whose body was carried out of here had been
married for at least a week.
14:35 → 14:38
SPEAKER_03 In the event of his death, I imagine everything passes to her.
14:50 → 14:55
SPEAKER_03 And now we return to the case of the Cunningham Heritage.
14:55 → 14:58
SPEAKER_03 How did you know they were married?
14:58 → 15:05
SPEAKER_03 Weren't you?
15:05 → 15:07
SPEAKER_01 Yes, a week ago.
15:07 → 15:09
SPEAKER_03 Then you do benefit by my brother's death.
15:09 → 15:11
SPEAKER_03 You're his heir.
15:11 → 15:13
SPEAKER_01 I don't know if I am or not.
15:13 → 15:14
SPEAKER_01 I only know I didn't kill him.
15:14 → 15:15
SPEAKER_01 I swear I didn't.
15:15 → 15:16
SPEAKER_03 Where were you married?
15:16 → 15:18
SPEAKER_01 We went down to Brighton last weekend.
15:19 → 15:20
SPEAKER_03 Why didn't Peter say anything about it?
15:21 → 15:25
SPEAKER_01 He asked me not to say anything, so of course I didn't.
15:25 → 15:28
SPEAKER_03 I'm afraid, young lady, I'll have to ask you to accompany me to
headquarters.
15:28 → 15:30
SPEAKER_03 I understand.
15:30 → 15:38
SPEAKER_03 Forgive me, Inspector, I think I should tell my mother.
15:38 → 15:43
SPEAKER_03 Oh, yes, of course.
15:43 → 15:45
SPEAKER_03 Tell me, Holmes, how did you know they were married?
15:45 → 15:48
SPEAKER_03 Well, the man's hands had the remains of a sunburn.
15:49 → 15:54
SPEAKER_03 and the fading marks of a narrow ring, but not as yet that indentation of
the finger a ring generally leaves.
15:54 → 15:58
SPEAKER_03 A weekend in the sun at Brighton explains the whole thing perfectly.
15:58 → 15:59
SPEAKER_03 I didn't notice these things.
15:59 → 16:00
SPEAKER_03 Yes, I know.
16:00 → 16:03
SPEAKER_03 The young lady's hands were also sunburned to the same degree.
16:03 → 16:05
SPEAKER_03 Then the case is solved.
16:05 → 16:06
SPEAKER_03 Yes, it would appear so, wouldn't it?
16:06 → 16:09
SPEAKER_04 What are you looking for?
16:09 → 16:09
SPEAKER_04 You see that?
16:09 → 16:09
SPEAKER_04 What?
16:09 → 16:10
SPEAKER_04 Here, use this.
16:10 → 16:17
SPEAKER_04 Thank you.
16:17 → 16:17
SPEAKER_03 Why, that's only the
16:18 → 16:21
SPEAKER_03 Cutting the carpet, yes, but it's a fresh one.
16:21 → 16:23
SPEAKER_05 Yes, but what does it mean?
16:23 → 16:25
SPEAKER_03 That's a good question.
16:25 → 16:27
SPEAKER_03 You can stop looking for clues now, Holmes.
16:27 → 16:29
SPEAKER_03 Ah, you've solved the case then.
16:29 → 16:29
SPEAKER_03 Completely.
16:29 → 16:30
SPEAKER_03 Oh, splendid.
16:30 → 16:33
SPEAKER_03 Seems this girl had a record.
16:33 → 16:40
SPEAKER_03 Nine months in the woman's prison in Holloway from the 21st of February,
1892 to the 21st of November, 1892.
16:40 → 16:46
SPEAKER_03 She was employed as a governess and convicted for stealing 300 pounds
from her employer.
16:46 → 16:47
SPEAKER_01 It's quite true.
16:48 → 16:51
SPEAKER_01 I knew you'd find out some time.
16:51 → 16:54
SPEAKER_01 I made a mistake five years ago, but I paid for it.
16:54 → 16:55
SPEAKER_01 But Peter knew all about it before we were married.
16:55 → 16:57
SPEAKER_01 I never tried to hide it from him.
16:57 → 16:58
SPEAKER_03 He didn't know what else you had in mind.
16:58 → 17:01
SPEAKER_01 I had nothing else in mind except that I loved him.
17:01 → 17:04
SPEAKER_03 I'm afraid I must ask you to go with the officer, Miss.
17:04 → 17:11
SPEAKER_03 Well, Madam.
17:11 → 17:13
SPEAKER_03 Well, that's how I like my cases.
17:13 → 17:15
SPEAKER_03 Fast and simple.
17:15 → 17:16
SPEAKER_03 Oh, indeed?
17:16 → 17:17
SPEAKER_03 You must tell me some more about it.
17:18 → 17:21
SPEAKER_03 Well, there's nothing to tell, really.
17:21 → 17:25
SPEAKER_03 Her story was that Peter asked her to call here at ten sharp.
17:25 → 17:32
SPEAKER_03 She arrived, found the door open for her, came in here and found him
writhing on the floor with a knife in his chest.
17:32 → 17:37
SPEAKER_03 She screamed, pulled it out, and just then, Brother Ralph walked in.
17:37 → 17:39
SPEAKER_03 Peter died without saying another word.
17:39 → 17:42
SPEAKER_03 So, she stabbed him for the inheritance and was caught in the act.
17:42 → 17:42
SPEAKER_03 Simple.
17:42 → 17:45
SPEAKER_03 Well, falling off a log couldn't be simpler, could it, Watson?
17:45 → 17:46
SPEAKER_03 I still think it's a tragedy.
17:47 → 17:51
SPEAKER_03 Yes, but in my job, Dr. Watson, we run up against it all the time.
17:51 → 17:51
SPEAKER_03 Garth?
17:51 → 17:53
SPEAKER_03 No, thank you.
17:53 → 17:55
SPEAKER_03 Well, I suppose you had some amazing adventures.
17:55 → 17:59
SPEAKER_03 Yes, but one learns to have a real philosophy of life and get a good
perspective.
17:59 → 18:01
SPEAKER_03 Yes, I suppose.
18:01 → 18:03
SPEAKER_03 But just the same, I think it's a pity.
18:03 → 18:05
SPEAKER_03 Just another case of a clever girl being too clever.
18:05 → 18:08
SPEAKER_03 A clever girl who intended to murder her husband.
18:08 → 18:10
SPEAKER_03 She certainly chose the most stupid possible way to commit the crime.
18:10 → 18:11
SPEAKER_03 Why, what was that?
18:11 → 18:12
SPEAKER_03 Well, what is it?
18:12 → 18:14
SPEAKER_03 A checkbook.
18:14 → 18:15
SPEAKER_03 Oh, amazing deduction.
18:15 → 18:15
SPEAKER_03 The straight look.
18:18 → 18:21
SPEAKER_03 So, Peter Cunningham drew a check for a thousand pounds.
18:21 → 18:28
SPEAKER_04 Six weeks ago, and five weeks ago, and four, and three, and two, and
that's all.
18:28 → 18:29
SPEAKER_03 Well?
18:29 → 18:30
SPEAKER_03 They're drawn to cash.
18:30 → 18:32
SPEAKER_03 Well, I don't get your point.
18:32 → 18:33
SPEAKER_03 He was a very rich man.
18:33 → 18:35
SPEAKER_03 Well, it's a great deal of cash.
18:35 → 18:36
SPEAKER_03 It was his own money.
18:36 → 18:38
SPEAKER_03 I suppose he could do what he liked with it.
18:38 → 18:41
SPEAKER_03 You may have hit the proverbial nail on the street.
18:41 → 18:42
SPEAKER_03 Now, look here, Holmes.
18:42 → 18:44
SPEAKER_03 You're trying to start something that just doesn't exist.
18:44 → 18:45
SPEAKER_03 Oh, you think so?
18:45 → 18:48
SPEAKER_03 I have a great deal of respect for your opinion, Holmes.
18:48 → 18:52
SPEAKER_05 But your trouble is that you can't leave things alone.
18:52 → 18:54
SPEAKER_03 If there isn't a mystery, you have to make one, or you're not happy.
18:54 → 18:55
SPEAKER_03 You're right, I'm not happy.
18:55 → 18:57
SPEAKER_03 There are marks on the carpet indicating a struggle.
18:57 → 19:00
SPEAKER_03 The man whose body was carried out of here was over six feet in height.
19:00 → 19:04
SPEAKER_03 If he had struggled with the girl who had left here, I don't think he'd
have lost.
19:04 → 19:05
SPEAKER_03 She surprised him.
19:05 → 19:07
SPEAKER_03 Oh, but he was expecting her.
19:07 → 19:08
SPEAKER_03 That's her story.
19:08 → 19:09
SPEAKER_03 I'd say she sneaked up on him.
19:09 → 19:11
SPEAKER_03 What, and stabbed him in the chest?
19:11 → 19:13
SPEAKER_03 How do you sneak up on someone and stab them in the chest?
19:13 → 19:14
SPEAKER_03 That's strange.
19:14 → 19:14
SPEAKER_03 Now look here, Holmes.
19:14 → 19:17
SPEAKER_03 You're trying to start something, and I just won't stand for it.
19:17 → 19:26
SPEAKER_05 That girl's a jailbird, and she's guilty, and she's going to hang, and
that's the end of the case.
19:26 → 19:34
SPEAKER_04 I see Inspector Lestrade is up to his usual mental gymnastics, trying to
hammer square pegs into round homes.
19:34 → 19:37
SPEAKER_05 Well, there, it's been a great pleasure meeting you, Inspector.
19:37 → 19:41
SPEAKER_03 I warn you to keep away from that man Holmes, or you'll be insane in less
than a week.
19:56 → 19:57
SPEAKER_03 What time is it?
19:57 → 19:59
SPEAKER_05 Half past ten.
19:59 → 20:04
SPEAKER_03 Perhaps you'd like to take a little stroll with me?
20:04 → 20:05
SPEAKER_03 Why?
20:05 → 20:10
SPEAKER_03 I'd like to investigate this afternoon's affair a bit further.
20:10 → 20:11
SPEAKER_03 Oh, yes.
20:11 → 20:14
SPEAKER_03 I'd like that.
20:14 → 20:15
SPEAKER_03 I thought you'd forgotten about it.
20:15 → 20:16
SPEAKER_03 Not at all.
20:16 → 20:17
SPEAKER_03 I've been thinking about it all evening.
20:17 → 20:18
SPEAKER_03 Shall we go?
20:18 → 20:21
SPEAKER_03 No, we must exchange our thoughts en route.
20:21 → 20:21
SPEAKER_03 Where are we going?
20:21 → 20:22
SPEAKER_03 To the Cunningham house.
20:22 → 20:24
SPEAKER_03 I didn't know you'd made an appointment there.
20:24 → 20:24
SPEAKER_03 I didn't.
20:25 → 20:26
SPEAKER_03 Oh, well, who do you expect to see?
20:26 → 20:28
SPEAKER_03 No one, I hope.
20:28 → 20:32
SPEAKER_03 I'm terribly sorry, Holmes.
20:32 → 20:37
SPEAKER_05 I don't understand what you mean when you say you want to go to the
Cunningham house and you just... You can't do that.
20:37 → 20:38
SPEAKER_05 What?
20:38 → 20:40
SPEAKER_05 Well, you can't break into the house.
20:40 → 20:40
SPEAKER_05 Why not?
20:40 → 20:42
SPEAKER_05 It's against the law, that's why not.
20:42 → 20:45
SPEAKER_05 Why, you'll be caught.
20:45 → 20:46
SPEAKER_05 That's it.
20:46 → 20:46
SPEAKER_05 What is?
20:46 → 20:47
SPEAKER_05 You'll be caught.
21:02 → 21:06
SPEAKER_05 Quickly now.
21:06 → 21:07
SPEAKER_05 But look, Holmes, we can't... Shh, shh, shh.
21:07 → 21:19
SPEAKER_00 Come on.
21:19 → 21:20
SPEAKER_03 Good evening, Inspector.
21:20 → 21:21
SPEAKER_03 Good evening, Sergeant.
21:21 → 21:22
SPEAKER_03 Everything all right?
21:22 → 21:23
SPEAKER_03 Yes, sir.
21:23 → 21:27
SPEAKER_03 I just thought Sherlock Holmes might have dropped by.
21:27 → 21:27
SPEAKER_03 Where'd you get the key?
21:27 → 21:29
SPEAKER_03 Oh, the key's a burglar's tool.
21:29 → 21:30
SPEAKER_03 A burglar's tool?
21:30 → 21:30
SPEAKER_03 Shh.
21:31 → 21:36
SPEAKER_05 Street care.
21:36 → 21:59
SPEAKER_03 How do you know he's out I have a spy watching the house goes with that
cabinet what I'm looking for papers bank statements anything to
indicate passage of money from Peter Cunningham's account go on.
22:06 → 22:16
SPEAKER_00 It's absolutely ridiculous.
22:16 → 22:20
SPEAKER_05 Looking for something and you don't know what in order to catch somebody
and you don't know who.
22:20 → 22:27
SPEAKER_03 Quite ridiculous.
22:27 → 22:30
SPEAKER_03 Nothing over my side.
22:30 → 22:30
SPEAKER_03 Keep looking.
22:30 → 22:31
SPEAKER_03 Who do you think's got it?
22:31 → 22:33
SPEAKER_03 Whatever it is we're looking for.
22:33 → 22:35
SPEAKER_03 Why did Peter Cunningham try to hide the fact of his marriage?
22:36 → 22:39
SPEAKER_03 A week or a month would have made a difference as far as his mother was
concerned.
22:39 → 22:56
SPEAKER_00 She would never have consented to his new bride anyway.
22:56 → 23:01
SPEAKER_03 He married her to prove to me that my blackmail wouldn't stop him.
23:01 → 23:05
SPEAKER_03 And then he withheld the fact in order to give me one week to clear out of
the country before he exposed
23:06 → 23:09
SPEAKER_03 The money he paid you went to buying up your promissory notes.
23:09 → 23:11
SPEAKER_03 I was being pressed, Mr. Holmes.
23:11 → 23:17
SPEAKER_03 My brother's engagement to a jailbird gave me a perfect opportunity to
extract a little money from him.
23:17 → 23:22
SPEAKER_03 In fact, if he hadn't been such a bullhead, it would have gone on for quite
some time.
23:22 → 23:25
SPEAKER_03 A jailbird, as you put it, makes the perfect murder suspect.
23:25 → 23:27
SPEAKER_03 Perfect, Mr. Holmes.
23:27 → 23:31
SPEAKER_03 And you and Dr. Watson make perfect burglary suspects.
23:32 → 23:37
SPEAKER_03 When I report your death to the police, they can't possibly blame me for
defending the sanctity of my home.
23:37 → 23:47
SPEAKER_03 Well done, Watson.
23:47 → 23:53
SPEAKER_05 I could have done a bit better, only it was in the bad shoulder.
23:53 → 23:53
SPEAKER_03 Quite all right, Watson.
23:53 → 23:54
SPEAKER_03 Think no more about it.
23:54 → 23:56
SPEAKER_03 So that's our murderer?
23:56 → 23:58
SPEAKER_03 Yes, the only possible one, of course.
23:58 → 23:59
SPEAKER_03 Only a man could have struck that blow.
23:59 → 24:01
SPEAKER_03 Peter died, as you say, within three or four minutes.
24:02 → 24:03
SPEAKER_03 Young, there was a body outside the whole time.
24:03 → 24:04
SPEAKER_03 Yes.
24:04 → 24:06
SPEAKER_03 Crystal clear.
24:06 → 24:08
SPEAKER_03 Oh, it's completely obvious.
24:08 → 24:09
SPEAKER_03 Well, what do we do now?
24:09 → 24:10
SPEAKER_05 What's going on here?
24:10 → 24:14
SPEAKER_05 Who fired that shot?
24:14 → 24:15
SPEAKER_04 We will sit with a good inspector.
24:15 → 24:26
SPEAKER_04 And with the aid of our evidence, a bit of logic, and a few simple
diagrams, we will endeavor to convince him that night follows day, and
that one and one inevitably makes two.
24:29 → 24:31
SPEAKER_03 How did you two get in here, anyway?
24:31 → 24:35
SPEAKER_03 Now, Inspector, calm yourself.
24:35 → 24:35
SPEAKER_03 Calm yourself.
24:35 → 24:37
SPEAKER_03 Calm yourself.
24:37 → 24:37
SPEAKER_03 Sit down.
24:37 → 24:38
SPEAKER_03 Now, there's a good fellow.
24:38 → 24:39
SPEAKER_03 Sit right here.
24:39 → 24:46
SPEAKER_00 Now, you see, we have a great deal to talk about.
24:46 → 24:53
SPEAKER_03 Also present with Inspector Lestrade was Dr. John Watson and a personal
friend of the Inspector's, Mr. Sherlock Holmes.
24:53 → 24:54
SPEAKER_03 This is ridiculous!
24:54 → 24:54
SPEAKER_03 It's fantastic!
24:59 → 25:00
SPEAKER_03 This isn't the way it happened at all.
25:00 → 25:03
SPEAKER_03 This will revolutionize investigation, Watson.
25:03 → 25:05
SPEAKER_03 This whole account is a lie.
25:05 → 25:06
SPEAKER_03 Fingerprints, Watson.
25:06 → 25:07
SPEAKER_03 That's the coming thing.
25:07 → 25:08
SPEAKER_03 No nonsense.
25:08 → 25:10
SPEAKER_03 What are you going to do about this?
25:10 → 25:11
SPEAKER_03 A bit more research.
25:11 → 25:12
SPEAKER_03 Here, give me your fingers on the sheet of paper.
25:12 → 25:19
SPEAKER_05 Were you going to sit there with these disgusting little fudges and let
them get away with this?
25:19 → 25:21
SPEAKER_03 Take your fun.
25:21 → 25:22
SPEAKER_03 Well, I won't.
25:23 → 25:24
SPEAKER_05 They're going to hear from me.
25:24 → 25:26
SPEAKER_05 Brilliant, inspectorless trade, indeed.
25:26 → 25:31
SPEAKER_05 Why, it took you three hours to convince that bonehead.
25:31 → 25:32
SPEAKER_05 I don't know.
25:32 → 25:35
SPEAKER_05 Never in my life have I heard... He was innocent.
25:35 → 25:47
SPEAKER_03 I wonder if he got more than a shoulder wound in Afghanistan.
26:12 → 26:14
SPEAKER_00 I'm.
26:37 → 26:39
SPEAKER_00 The.
