Don't mourn for Joe Strombel.

00:01:47,375 --> 00:01:50,332
Joe Strombel led a full life.

3
00:01:50,832 --> 00:01:53,832
A newspaperman in the best tradition.

4
00:01:54,167 --> 00:01:57,167
A great credit to the fourth estate.

5
00:01:57,332 --> 00:02:00,332
It didn't matter if the bombs in
the war zone were falling.

6
00:02:00,667 --> 00:02:03,667
It didn't matter how high up
the political scandal went,

7
00:02:04,542 --> 00:02:06,875
or how many big corporations

8
00:02:06,875 --> 00:02:09,875
or small-time racketeers leaned on him.

9
00:02:10,542 --> 00:02:13,542
Whatever the risk, if there was a story there,

10
00:02:14,042 --> 00:02:17,042
Joe went after it. And he usually got it.

11
00:02:18,500 --> 00:02:20,667
Well, I was with him when the story broke
about Prince Charles,

12
00:02:20,667 --> 00:02:23,542
and that made him persona non grata
with the Royal Family.

13
00:02:23,542 --> 00:02:26,457
Except with Diana.
They always remained good friends.

14
00:02:26,457 --> 00:02:28,792
(ALL AGREEING)
He did love a woman.

15

<i>Hey, did you know he started as a police reporter?</i>

16
00:02:30,707 --> 00:02:32,542
- Did he?
- Yeah, he was a bloody good one.

17
00:02:32,542 --> 00:02:34,542
One of the best.
Maybe the best.

18
00:02:34,542 --> 00:02:37,042
I got trapped with Joe once in Afghanistan.

19
00:02:37,042 --> 00:02:38,207
Yeah?

20
00:02:38,207 --> 00:02:41,167
And we were going to be shot any moment
by the Taliban, until,

21
00:02:41,167 --> 00:02:42,957
typically, Joe found someone to bribe

22
00:02:42,957 --> 00:02:44,667

so we could escape.

23

<i>- Not with his own money, though.
- No, no, he got it on expenses.</i>

<i>- Plus 10%.
- Ten percent.</i>

And, well, we lived to write another day.

- Yeah.

<i>Not always at British intelligence.</i>

29

<i>No, but he got the information before anyone else.</i>

30
00:03:01,250 --> 00:03:04,167
- Yeah, he did. That's right.
- Not Richard Nixon, though.

I'm...
Well, I was personal secretary to Peter Lyman.

44
00:04:09,832 --> 00:04:12,832
- Lord Lyman's son.
- Yes, impressive young man.

45
00:04:12,957 --> 00:04:15,207
- You knew him?
- No, only by reputation.

I think I was poisoned.

You think?

51
00:04:27,957 --> 00:04:29,625
Why?

52
00:04:29,625 --> 00:04:31,042
I believe I was poisoned

53
00:04:31,042 --> 00:04:34,042
because I was on
the verge of confirming a terrible suspicion.

54

Yes?
What suspicion is that?

55
00:04:38,542 --> 00:04:41,042
That Peter Lyman is the serial killer

56
00:04:41,042 --> 00:04:44,042
known to the police as the Tarot Card Killer.

00:04:46,542 --> 00:04:48,375
I assume you're aware of that case?

59
00:04:48,375 --> 00:04:51,332
Yeah, I wrote an article two years ago,
when the Tarot killings first started.

60
00:04:51,792 --> 00:04:54,792
But Peter Lyman? My God.

61
00:04:55,042 --> 00:04:56,292
What on earth made you suspect

00:04:56,292 --> 00:04:59,292
this rich, young handsome,

63

You remember the last murder?
The police found a clue.

64
00:05:02,416 --> 00:05:05,416
Yes, a cufflink. I read about it in the paper.
Unusual antique, wasn't it?

65
00:05:05,750 --> 00:05:08,750
Yep.
Very rare Art Deco.

66
00:05:08,750 --> 00:05:11,750
Peter had the exact pair.

67
00:05:12,166 --> 00:05:13,958
So could have the Tarot Killer.

68
00:05:13,958 --> 00:05:15,625
The world is full of coincidences.

69
00:05:15,625 --> 00:05:18,625
Yeah, except I noticed that Peter only had one left.

70
00:05:19,375 --> 00:05:22,250
He'd lost the other.

71
00:05:22,250 --> 00:05:23,875
Still,

72
00:05:23,875 --> 00:05:25,667
although it's a tantalizing thought.

73
00:05:25,667 --> 00:05:28,250
Did you inform the police, or was that too sticky?

74
00:05:28,250 --> 00:05:30,457
I didn't know what to do, so I phoned my lawyer

75
00:05:30,457 --> 00:05:33,082
and I asked his advice on whether to report it or not.

76
00:05:33,082 --> 00:05:36,082
And I thought I heard this click on the phone,

77
00:05:36,707 --> 00:05:39,042
you know, like someone had been listening.

78
00:05:39,042 --> 00:05:41,832
Later that day, after tea,

79
00:05:41,832 --> 00:05:44,832
I died suddenly.

80
00:05:48,375 --> 00:05:51,375
That is suspicious.

81
00:05:53,207 --> 00:05:56,000
My God, Peter Lyman.

82
00:05:56,000 --> 00:05:59,000
Hard to believe,
but if he did turn out to be the Tarot Killer,

83
00:05:59,207 --> 00:06:00,416
what a story.

84
00:06:00,416 --> 00:06:03,125
I knew you'd appreciate it
when you said you were a reporter.

85

This would be a dynamite scoop.
And I got it first.

86
00:06:06,083 --> 00:06:09,083
Yeah.
Unfortunately, where you're headed there is no first.

87

- Mr. Tinsley?
- Yeah.

92

- Sondra Pransky.
- Who?

00:06:33,582 --> 00:06:36,582
Sondra Pransky.
I'm the journalism student from Adair.

94

for the school newspaper.

Not you.

I mean, I know how busy film directors get and all.

00:06:46,457 --> 00:06:49,457
But you said if I was in London visiting,
then you would, you know,

99
00:06:49,542 --> 00:06:51,792
and here I am, which is fantastic.

100
00:06:51,792 --> 00:06:53,582
I think I have your letter, actually.

101
00:06:53,582 --> 00:06:56,417
- See, right now I'm a bit tied up.
- Here it is!

102
00:06:56,417 --> 00:06:58,417
Here it is.
This is so great for me.

103
00:06:58,417 --> 00:07:01,333
I mean, you've got a huge following in Rochester.

104
00:07:01,333 --> 00:07:02,666
It gets very cold there.

Well...

106
00:07:05,708 --> 00:07:07,875
Actually,

107
00:07:07,875 --> 00:07:10,833
I was wondering if we could just ask you
a couple of questions.

108
00:07:11,208 --> 00:07:14,166
- Do you mind?
- Okay, okay, but we got to be real quick.

112
00:07:44,750 --> 00:07:47,042
You really want to know?

113
00:07:47,042 --> 00:07:49,542
Well, originally, I wasn't going to go to college.

114
00:07:49,542 --> 00:07:52,500
I was going to become a dental hygienist
like my sister, Beverly.

115
00:07:52,625 --> 00:07:54,792
And, don't get me wrong, it's a great profession.

116
00:07:54,792 --> 00:07:57,792
I have very high respect for teeth and gums,
particularly gums.

00:07:58,332 --> 00:07:59,832
My whole family's in orthodontics. But...

118
00:07:59,832 --> 00:08:02,833
- And what? You're vacationing here?
- Oh, yes.

119
00:08:03,375 --> 00:08:06,333
Oh, I'm just very friendly with a very upper class
British family.

Our families vacationed in Palm Beach together.

121
00:08:10,041 --> 00:08:11,500
My mother won a visit to Palm Beach

122
00:08:11,500 --> 00:08:14,083
and I became friends with their granddaughter,
Vivian.

123
00:08:14,083 --> 00:08:15,916
She's so lovely.
She'll stay with us...

- Another?
- Oh, thanks.

I didn't even get the interview.

126
00:08:23,042 --> 00:08:24,707

I was so drunk, I don't even remember.

00:08:29,625 --> 00:08:31,000
All I know is that the second it was over,

130
00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:33,250
he got a phone call and had to leave
suddenly for Thailand.

131
00:08:33,250 --> 00:08:34,332
Thailand?

132
00:08:34,332 --> 00:08:37,332
Yeah, Justin Richards got fired
from some project and he had to take over.

133
00:08:38,207 --> 00:08:39,292
What difference does it make?

134
00:08:39,292 --> 00:08:41,042

but don't try and bring it through customs.

310
00:17:29,000 --> 00:17:30,708
Darling, I'm a little late.

311
00:17:30,708 --> 00:17:32,833
Sweetheart, I love you.
You know that.

312
00:17:32,833 --> 00:17:34,250
- I say this with all due respect, but...
- I...

313
00:17:34,250 --> 00:17:36,125
Sondra? Sondra?

314
00:17:36,125 --> 00:17:38,333
- Mr. Strombel.
- Listen to me, Sondra.

315
00:17:38,333 --> 00:17:41,333
Carefully. Listen to me, hmm?
Write this down. This is a big story.

316
00:17:43,083 --> 00:17:44,625
You got a pen?

317
00:17:44,625 --> 00:17:47,625
STROMBEL: I only have a minute.
Would you hurry?

318
00:17:48,541 --> 00:17:49,625
Fine.

319
00:17:49,625 --> 00:17:52,333
There's every reason to believe that Peter Lyman...
You got that name?

320
00:17:52,333 --> 00:17:54,708
- Yes.
- Peter Lyman. Son of Lord Lyman,

321
00:17:54,708 --> 00:17:56,875
a respected businessman, hmm?

322
00:17:56,875 --> 00:17:59,791
Rich, good-looking, very successful.

323
00:17:59,791 --> 00:18:02,791
That Peter Lyman is the Tarot Card Serial Killer.

324
00:18:03,375 --> 00:18:04,833
<i>Now, just write this down.</i>

325
00:18:04,833 --> 00:18:07,833
If so, that he's murdered a dozen women.
Short-haired, brunette prostitutes.

326
00:18:09,375 --> 00:18:10,708
And if it turns out to be Lyman,

327
00:18:10,708 --> 00:18:12,916
this will be the biggest story to hit London
since Jack the Ripper.

328
00:18:12,916 --> 00:18:15,333
"Jack the Ripper."
Is that capitalized?

329
00:18:15,333 --> 00:18:17,791
There's no knowing where he'll strike next,

330
00:18:17,791 --> 00:18:20,500
but more women will be murdered
until he is stopped.

331
00:18:20,500 --> 00:18:23,208
<i>That's horrible!
We have to notify the police.</i>

332
00:18:23,208 --> 00:18:24,666
<i>No, no.
What kind of reporter are you?</i>

333
00:18:24,666 --> 00:18:26,750
<i>That would be a disaster!
God, no!</i>

334
00:18:26,750 --> 00:18:29,708
<i>He's a respected millionaire.
You can't accuse anyone,</i>

335
00:18:29,708 --> 00:18:32,208
let alone someone like that
without substantial proof.

336
00:18:32,208 --> 00:18:35,166
And once you've alerted him to the suspicion...
That he is under suspicion,

337
00:18:36,500 --> 00:18:38,125
then he'll be impossible to trap.

338
00:18:38,125 --> 00:18:40,000
(CHUCKLES) Not to mention doubly dangerous.

339
00:18:40,000 --> 00:18:42,958
<i>There's also a possibility
that he poisoned his secretary</i>

340
00:18:42,958 --> 00:18:45,958
because he suspected that
she was learning the truth.

341
00:18:45,958 --> 00:18:48,416
No, you have to get the story first,

342
00:18:48,416 --> 00:18:51,083
but first you have to get the story right!

343
00:18:51,083 --> 00:18:54,041
There's no certainty in this, or...

344
00:18:54,041 --> 00:18:55,875
<i>I got a feeling in my gut about this.</i>

345
00:18:55,875 --> 00:18:58,583
The kind that journalists dream about.

346
00:18:58,583 --> 00:19:01,458
And so far, no one else has the information.

347
00:19:01,458 --> 00:19:04,041
(CHUCKLES) Oh, if I was around today,

348
00:19:04,041 --> 00:19:06,083
I'd find a way to get the facts

349
00:19:06,083 --> 00:19:07,458
<i>and break this case wide open!</i>

350
00:19:07,458 --> 00:19:10,458
<i>Now, believe me, Sondra.</i>

351
00:19:10,708 --> 00:19:13,583
You can wait your whole life for a story like this.

352
00:19:13,583 --> 00:19:15,541
Don't blow it.

353
00:19:15,541 --> 00:19:18,500
And be careful.
Lives are in the balance.

354
00:19:18,875 --> 00:19:21,166
<i>Possibly, maybe yours.</i>

355
00:19:21,166 --> 00:19:24,166
<i>Got to go.
Got to go.</i>

356
00:19:35,375 --> 00:19:37,375
- That's it for me.
- You got to help me with this.

357
00:19:37,375 --> 00:19:39,333
Not me, honey.
I'm a prestidigitator.

358
00:19:39,333 --> 00:19:41,000
I do coin tricks and card tricks.

359
00:19:41,000 --> 00:19:42,666
And I'm a journalist sitting on top of

360
00:19:42,666 --> 00:19:44,333
one of the biggest stories of all time!

361
00:19:44,333 --> 00:19:46,041
Yeah. For a college paper!

362
00:19:46,041 --> 00:19:47,375
Kid, you're in over your head.

363
00:19:47,375 --> 00:19:50,333
- You know what you should do?
You should share this story.
- Share it?

364
00:19:50,333 --> 00:19:52,500
No!
I gotta dig up the facts

365
00:19:52,500 --> 00:19:54,958
and then I gotta shop it around
to every paper in town.

366
00:19:54,958 --> 00:19:56,666
(MUTTERING)
Look at her.

367
00:19:56,666 --> 00:19:58,250
Soon you'll be drinking the black coffee

368
00:19:58,250 --> 00:20:00,208
and smoking cigarettes with the hat back.
Now, what kind of...

369
00:20:00,208 --> 00:20:01,708
We don't have much time here.

370
00:20:01,708 --> 00:20:04,541
I mean, we got to strike!
You know this guy's a serial killer.

371
00:20:04,541 --> 00:20:06,958
He could just kill at any moment!

372
00:20:06,958 --> 00:20:09,916
I heard that part.
That's when I knew I was gonna make other plans.

373
00:20:09,916 --> 00:20:12,041
<i>You should go call the police.
That's what I'd do.</i>

374
00:20:12,041 --> 00:20:13,541
Yeah, and what am I gonna tell them?

375
00:20:13,541 --> 00:20:15,500
<i>Tell them that...
Exactly what he told you.</i>

376
00:20:15,500 --> 00:20:18,500
<i>That Lord Lyman's son, Peter, is...
He suspects he's a serial killer.</i>

377
00:20:19,916 --> 00:20:22,916
Uh-huh, and when they ask me where
I got this information from?

378
00:20:22,916 --> 00:20:25,916
(STUTTERING) Well, tell them!
You know, just say, you know tell them...

379
00:20:26,458 --> 00:20:28,125
Just explain to them that...

380
00:20:28,125 --> 00:20:30,916
You know, say that...
Tell them...

381
00:20:30,916 --> 00:20:32,500
Where did you get the information?

382
00:20:32,500 --> 00:20:35,500
Was that the question that you just asked?

383
00:20:35,875 --> 00:20:38,541
I would not say anything if
I were you 'cause they'll put you away.

384
00:20:38,541 --> 00:20:40,541
(STUTTERING)
That's exactly what I'm saying.

385
00:20:40,541 --> 00:20:43,333
I'm gonna say,
"I got this information from a dead guy"?

386
00:20:43,333 --> 00:20:46,333
Listen, this is not for me, Sondra.
I don't do this.

387
00:20:46,625 --> 00:20:49,625
I do occasional bar mitzvahs and kids' parties.

388
00:20:49,958 --> 00:20:52,541
You know, you're barking up the wrong tree.

389
00:20:52,541 --> 00:20:54,916
Peter Lyman.
Who is Peter Lyman, you know?

390
00:20:54,916 --> 00:20:57,166
How can we meet him?

391
00:20:57,166 --> 00:21:00,166
How can we see what we're dealing with here?

392
00:21:06,041 --> 00:21:07,708
(SCOFFING)

393
00:21:07,708 --> 00:21:10,708
What the hell are we doing here?
You don't even know what the guy looks like.

394
00:21:10,875 --> 00:21:11,958
That's why we're here.

395
00:21:11,958 --> 00:21:14,333
I just couldn't get a clear picture of him
on the Internet, so...

396
00:21:14,333 --> 00:21:17,333
(STUTTERING) Jesus.
And what are we going to do if we see him?

397
00:21:18,333 --> 00:21:20,416
I mean, what are you gonna learn by looking at him?

398
00:21:20,416 --> 00:21:23,416
Unless he strangles a passerby.

399
00:21:23,875 --> 00:21:26,208
I don't know, Sidney.
I'm improvising.

400
00:21:26,208 --> 00:21:29,166
I should be home, working on my magic.

401
00:21:29,541 --> 00:21:31,541
Hey, why don't you think about this

402
00:21:31,541 --> 00:21:33,958
as adding some excitement to your life?

403
00:21:33,958 --> 00:21:36,041
Hey, sweetheart, excitement in my life

404
00:21:36,041 --> 00:21:39,041
is dinner without heartburn after it.

405
00:21:40,625 --> 00:21:43,625
Do you have a family?

406
00:21:44,875 --> 00:21:47,833
I had a wife, but she dumped me,
if you can believe that.

407
00:21:50,666 --> 00:21:52,875
Somehow...

408
00:21:52,875 --> 00:21:55,875
She thought I was immature
and that I never grew up.

409
00:21:55,916 --> 00:21:58,333
Now, I had a great rebuttal for her.

410
00:21:58,333 --> 00:21:59,541
I could have nailed her, you know,

411
00:21:59,541 --> 00:22:02,541
but I raised my hand
and she would not call on me.

412
00:22:04,041 --> 00:22:05,250
- Sidney...
- What?

413
00:22:05,250 --> 00:22:08,250
That's him.

414
00:22:10,625 --> 00:22:12,625
Let's follow him.

415
00:22:12,625 --> 00:22:14,750
Follow?
What do you want to follow him for?

416
00:22:14,750 --> 00:22:17,750
I'm telling you. We need clues, we need a lead.
We gotta start someplace.

417
00:22:18,125 --> 00:22:20,583
No, darling, I do not think this is a good idea.

418
00:22:20,583 --> 00:22:23,583
It's a very good idea.

419
00:22:24,708 --> 00:22:27,708
Come on!

420
00:22:32,916 --> 00:22:35,125
Be careful.

421
00:22:35,125 --> 00:22:37,666
Hey, don't touch anything.

422
00:22:37,666 --> 00:22:39,208
You know, if you break something here,

423
00:22:39,208 --> 00:22:42,041
you're gonna be washing dishes
the rest of your life.

424
00:22:42,041 --> 00:22:45,000
(EXCLAIMS)

425
00:22:47,541 --> 00:22:49,708
<i>Okay, now you've seen him. Let's go.</i>

426
00:22:49,708 --> 00:22:52,666
<i>Jerry!
It's Jerry Burke, Louis' chiropractor.</i>

427
00:22:53,208 --> 00:22:54,791
- Hi.
- Nice to see you.

428
00:22:54,791 --> 00:22:57,708
That's how you follow a guy?
It's not even Peter Lyman!

429
00:22:57,708 --> 00:22:59,916
I told you the photos weren't clear.

430
00:22:59,916 --> 00:23:02,875
Sweetheart, you should live and be well, prosper.

431
00:23:02,875 --> 00:23:05,583
I hope...
I say this with all due respect.

432
00:23:05,583 --> 00:23:06,958
But without me.

433
00:23:06,958 --> 00:23:09,958
I'm tired, I'm bored, I'm hungry, I'm going home.
God love you.

434
00:23:10,791 --> 00:23:13,791
- I'll look for your byline.
- Sidney!

435
00:23:14,916 --> 00:23:17,750
<i>- I'm about to become your favorite person.
- Why?</i>

436
00:23:17,750 --> 00:23:19,833
I ran into someone today
who said that Peter Lyman

437
00:23:19,833 --> 00:23:21,958
swims at the Governor's Club every day.

438
00:23:21,958 --> 00:23:23,750
Really?
What's the Governor's Club?

439
00:23:23,750 --> 00:23:25,083
It's this posh, private club,

440
00:23:25,083 --> 00:23:27,541
but Daddy's partner's a member
and members are allowed to bring guests.

441
00:23:27,541 --> 00:23:29,708
Wow, do you think I could bring someone?

442
00:23:29,708 --> 00:23:32,666
I'm sure Daddy can arrange it.
When do you want to go?

443
00:23:40,833 --> 00:23:42,333
How can I help you?

444
00:23:42,333 --> 00:23:44,666
Hi.
We're guests of the Fultons.

445
00:23:44,666 --> 00:23:45,958
We're here to take a dip.

446
00:23:45,958 --> 00:23:48,333
Oh, yes, yes.
The lockers are on the first floor.

447
00:23:48,333 --> 00:23:50,041
- The pool's downstairs.
- Great.

448
00:23:50,041 --> 00:23:53,041
By the way, is Peter Lyman here, by any chance?

449
00:23:53,083 --> 00:23:54,291
Mr. Lyman.

450
00:23:54,291 --> 00:23:55,791
Yes, came in a few minutes ago.

451
00:23:55,791 --> 00:23:57,666
What color bathing suit does he have on?

452
00:23:57,666 --> 00:23:58,708
Hey.

453
00:23:58,708 --> 00:24:01,708
I... Do you want me to clash with him?

454
00:24:03,208 --> 00:24:05,458
So silly.

455
00:24:05,458 --> 00:24:08,375
- So do you swim?
- Of course I don't swim. You have to ask?

456
00:24:08,375 --> 00:24:10,750
What?
They say it's the best form of exercise.

457
00:24:10,750 --> 00:24:12,416
Yes, but when I go into the water,

458
00:24:12,416 --> 00:24:15,416
my glasses, you know,
float off my head into the pool.

459
00:24:17,083 --> 00:24:19,166
<i>Hey, Sidney, that's got to be him.</i>

460
00:24:19,166 --> 00:24:20,625
Yeah, well, make sure this time.

461
00:24:20,625 --> 00:24:23,458
'Cause I don't want to swim around after
another chiropractor.

Hmm, he's very handsome.

463
00:24:25,666 --> 00:24:28,666
This guy is a serial killer like I play for
the New York Jets.

464
00:24:30,291 --> 00:24:32,833
How can we meet him?

465
00:24:32,833 --> 00:24:35,083
(STUTTERING) I don't know.
They have a class system.

466
00:24:35,083 --> 00:24:37,875
He's an aristocrat, and, you know, we're commoners.

467
00:24:37,875 --> 00:24:40,875
In fact, according to his system,
I think we're probably classified as scum.

468
00:24:42,291 --> 00:24:45,208
<i>This is our only chance.
He's all alone.</i>

469
00:24:45,208 --> 00:24:46,708
Well, you're a pretty girl.

470
00:24:46,708 --> 00:24:49,708
You know, I think you could probably
get this guy to get interested in you.

471
00:24:50,291 --> 00:24:53,291
- Don't be silly.
- Particularly if he's got a twisted mind.

472
00:24:55,500 --> 00:24:57,750
<i>Look, I can't just go up to him and say,
"Hi, how are you?"</i>

473
00:24:57,750 --> 00:25:00,750
<i>I mean, what if he gets suspicious, or, you know,</i>

474
00:25:00,875 --> 00:25:03,375
if he gets put off, or...

475
00:25:03,375 --> 00:25:05,083
Drown.

476
00:25:05,083 --> 00:25:07,750
- What?
- Drown! Drown! I'll go get... I'll go get...

you know. Yes!

481
00:25:15,125 --> 00:25:17,875
Go ahead, sweetheart.
That's a great idea.

482
00:25:17,875 --> 00:25:20,625
He'll be obliged to save you that way.

483
00:25:20,625 --> 00:25:23,625
And if he doesn't... If, you know...
Then I'll notify your parents.

Your leg?
Here, stretch it out.

Oh.
That's it.

- Thank you.
- No problem.

- You know, that way you won't cramp.

Have you just become a member?

Oh, no, I'm a guest of the Fultons.

Oh, good.
What do you do, Jade?

525
00:27:34,375 --> 00:27:37,208
Well, I am an actress.

Look, Jade,

532
00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:50,125
if you're not busy,

533
00:27:50,125 --> 00:27:52,958
my father's giving a garden party
at the estate on Sunday

534
00:27:52,958 --> 00:27:54,333
and I'd love you to come.

535
00:27:54,333 --> 00:27:57,333
I'd be very happy to be your date
and show you around.

536
00:27:57,500 --> 00:28:00,416
The English countryside is very lovely
this time of the year.

00:28:00,416 --> 00:28:02,708
<i>- Sounds fantastic.
- Good.</i>

538
00:28:02,708 --> 00:28:05,375
Do you mind if I bring my father?

539
00:28:05,375 --> 00:28:06,791
Your father?

540
00:28:06,791 --> 00:28:09,375
<i>Oh, look!
There he is right now.</i>

541
00:28:09,375 --> 00:28:10,541
Ah.

542
00:28:10,541 --> 00:28:12,458
I was in the lounge.
I heard you drowning.

543
00:28:12,458 --> 00:28:15,458
I finished my tea and scones and came immediately.

544
00:28:15,791 --> 00:28:17,541
<i>Dad, this is Peter Lyman,</i>

<i>who was nice enough to rescue me.</i>

00:28:19,291 --> 00:28:22,291

547
00:28:24,416 --> 00:28:26,208
Yes, of course, child!

548
00:28:26,208 --> 00:28:29,208
She cannot swim.
The girl cannot swim.

549
00:28:29,416 --> 00:28:32,416
Like a lead weight,
she sinks to the bottom all the time.

550
00:28:32,708 --> 00:28:35,708
It's a family trait. Lack of buoyancy, or...
Her siblings have it as well.

551
00:28:36,708 --> 00:28:39,625
Yes, well, listen, pleasure to meet you,
Mr. Spence, right?

552
00:28:39,625 --> 00:28:40,708
Yes.

553
00:28:40,708 --> 00:28:43,208
Yes, and I'll see you on Sunday at the estate.

554
00:28:43,208 --> 00:28:45,541
- Oh, great. Sunday?
- What's Sunday? Not a fox hunt?

555
00:28:45,541 --> 00:28:48,500
(CHUCKLING) No. No, Dad.
I'll explain it to you later.

556
00:28:48,666 --> 00:28:50,708
Listen, I'll leave all
the information at the desk, all right?

557
00:28:50,708 --> 00:28:53,708
Hey, come, child.

558
00:28:54,375 --> 00:28:57,333
What kind of idiot are you?
Not a fox hunt?

559
00:28:57,375 --> 00:29:00,375
I'd like to talk to these people
in their own terms.

560
00:29:00,375 --> 00:29:03,000
And, oh, thanks for telling him I'm your father.

561
00:29:03,000 --> 00:29:05,833
Oh, incidentally, he thinks my name is Jade Spence,

562
00:29:05,833 --> 00:29:07,416
so that makes you Mr. Spence.

563
00:29:07,416 --> 00:29:10,416
Wait a minute, I... This is too tricky.
I don't want to  go ahead with this.

564
00:29:10,750 --> 00:29:13,750
Why? What's wrong with you?
Your whole life is deception. You're a magician.

565
00:29:13,916 --> 00:29:16,916
<i>- Yes, I'm a magician and I want to stay a magician.
- Can I have a Coke please?</i>

566
00:29:17,000 --> 00:29:19,458
I don't want to get sued or deported

567
00:29:19,458 --> 00:29:21,875
or arrested for stalking somebody.

568
00:29:21,875 --> 00:29:24,041
This is a big guy you're dealing with.

569
00:29:24,041 --> 00:29:26,916
This is a big story, no kidding.
That's what Joe Strombel said.

570
00:29:26,916 --> 00:29:29,750
That's why he returned, you know.
This is his last big scoop.

571
00:29:29,750 --> 00:29:31,041
Hey. What do I care about Joe Strombel?

572
00:29:31,041 --> 00:29:34,041
Suddenly I'm taking direction
from a hunk of ectoplasm?

573
00:29:34,875 --> 00:29:37,125
This could be very big for my career.

574
00:29:37,125 --> 00:29:40,125
Your career's fine.
You're on the college Bbugle, or whatever it is.

575
00:29:40,916 --> 00:29:42,625
You got years for scoops.

576
00:29:42,625 --> 00:29:44,291
You know what?
Forget you, all right.

577
00:29:44,291 --> 00:29:47,291
I'll do this on my own. I don't need you.
Go back to your card tricks.

578
00:29:47,375 --> 00:29:49,166
I didn't say I wouldn't help you.

579
00:29:49,208 --> 00:29:52,125
You know, I just...
It has to be done properly.

580
00:29:52,125 --> 00:29:54,375
You know, we gotta put our heads together.

581
00:29:54,375 --> 00:29:57,333
If we put our heads together,
you'll hear a hollow noise.

582
00:30:15,833 --> 00:30:18,833
Look at this place.
All it's missing is a moat.

583
00:30:23,166 --> 00:30:26,166
Ooh! Hey, I could get used to this.

584
00:30:26,500 --> 00:30:29,500
Look at this.

585
00:30:29,708 --> 00:30:32,666
<i>Oh, there he is.
Remember, Jade Spence.</i>

586
00:30:32,833 --> 00:30:34,916

589
00:30:38,583 --> 00:30:41,458
- Hello.
- How are you? Welcome, Mr. Spence and Jade.

590
00:30:41,458 --> 00:30:42,708
Mr. Spence.

591
00:30:42,708 --> 00:30:45,666
- You look stunning. Stunning.
- Oh, thank you. It's beautiful here.

592
00:30:46,208 --> 00:30:47,375
Thank you. Thank you. Yes.

593
00:30:47,375 --> 00:30:49,958
It's been in the family for years.
About 00 years.

594
00:30:49,958 --> 00:30:51,916
- It's a little stuffy for my taste, but...
- Oh.

595
00:30:51,916 --> 00:30:54,375
She said, "All that's missing is a moat."

596
00:30:54,375 --> 00:30:57,333
- Right.
- (CHUCKLES) I love that. I love the moat line.

597
00:30:57,375 --> 00:31:00,375
- "All that's missing is a moat." Beautiful.
- Ah, this is my father.

598
00:31:00,708 --> 00:31:03,041
Father, Stephen Lyman, this is...
These are my friends from America

599
00:31:03,041 --> 00:31:04,458
- I was telling you about.
- Oh, Lord Lyman.

600
00:31:04,458 --> 00:31:05,625
Jade Spence, Mr. Spence.

601
00:31:05,625 --> 00:31:07,125
- How are you?
- Hello.

602
00:31:07,125 --> 00:31:10,125
- Curtsey, curtsey, curtsey, curtsey, curtsey, curtsey,
- I've never met a Lord before.

603
00:31:10,500 --> 00:31:11,666
How exciting!

604
00:31:11,666 --> 00:31:14,625
No, but there was that Earl that we...
There was that Earl.

605
00:31:14,625 --> 00:31:16,375
I do hope you're enjoying yourself.

606
00:31:16,375 --> 00:31:18,416
Peter, why don't you show them around?

607
00:31:18,416 --> 00:31:20,041
Absolutely.
Would you like that?

608
00:31:20,041 --> 00:31:22,166
Oh, it...
Charmed, I'm sure.

609
00:31:22,208 --> 00:31:24,500
Should we hit the buffet table first though?

610
00:31:24,500 --> 00:31:25,916
- No, Dad.
- Because the stuff looks great.

611
00:31:25,916 --> 00:31:27,500
Remember, we wanted to look around.

612
00:31:27,500 --> 00:31:29,375
(CHUCKLING)
Yes, of course, of course, blessed offspring.

613
00:31:29,375 --> 00:31:31,875
<i>Why don't we get a drink
and then we'll start inside?</i>

00:31:31,875 --> 00:31:34,833
<i>- Oh, okay.
- Come.</i>

615
00:31:38,041 --> 00:31:40,958
Yes, I love this room here.
We often spend evenings in here.

616
00:31:40,958 --> 00:31:42,625
The English countryside!

617
00:31:42,625 --> 00:31:45,625
It's elegant, yet understated.
I like that.

618
00:31:45,916 --> 00:31:47,583
You've done wonders with the place.

619
00:31:47,583 --> 00:31:49,458
(CHUCKLES)
It brings to mind Trollope.

620
00:31:49,458 --> 00:31:51,375
Oh, do you enjoy reading Trollope, too?

621
00:31:51,375 --> 00:31:54,333
No, no, not the author.
This was a girl I knew.

622
00:31:54,333 --> 00:31:57,166
Well, come.
Let's go upstairs and have a look at the view.

623
00:31:57,208 --> 00:31:58,333
Oh.

624
00:31:58,333 --> 00:32:01,083
Would you quit fooling around!
What's wrong with you?

625
00:32:01,083 --> 00:32:03,250
- Try to pick up clues, try to remember things.
- I'm charming him.

626
00:32:03,250 --> 00:32:05,833
I remember.
I got a mnemonic system that I use.

627
00:32:05,833 --> 00:32:07,916
- I use images, it's a trick.
- Uh-huh, yeah.

628
00:32:07,916 --> 00:32:09,500
Say I want to remember this ashtray.

629
00:32:09,500 --> 00:32:12,500
I think of, like, 50 ashtrays dancing
on a desert island in hula skirts or something

630
00:32:13,958 --> 00:32:16,166
and then I remember.
I can call it to mind whenever I...

631
00:32:16,166 --> 00:32:17,916
Where are you going?

632
00:32:17,916 --> 00:32:20,125
This is one of the drawing rooms.

633
00:32:20,125 --> 00:32:22,333
Wow, this is really beautiful, isn't it?

634
00:32:22,375 --> 00:32:24,750
Oh, here we have...
This is my great-grandfather.

635
00:32:24,750 --> 00:32:27,708
There's grandfather and his wife, Lady Hayden.

636
00:32:27,708 --> 00:32:30,708
Reminds me of the portrait of Aunt Hillary
in the library, no?

637
00:32:31,333 --> 00:32:34,333
Game woman, Hillary. Suffragette, I believe.
Yeah. Diphtheria took her.

638
00:32:35,916 --> 00:32:38,916
Or perhaps it was elm blight.

639
00:32:39,208 --> 00:32:41,291
Come on, Dad.

640
00:32:41,291 --> 00:32:43,166
<i>Oh, this is just beautiful. Wow.</i>

641
00:32:43,166 --> 00:32:45,750
Yes. I love the lake.
Do either of you fish?

642
00:32:45,750 --> 00:32:48,041
- No, no, never have.
- Oh, I'll have to teach you.

643
00:32:48,041 --> 00:32:50,541
I've taken some salmon, you know. Organic.

644
00:32:50,541 --> 00:32:53,541
Yes, me, too.
I fly fish a little. But...

645
00:32:53,875 --> 00:32:55,541
So, Jade, do you enjoy concerts?

646
00:32:55,541 --> 00:32:57,333
I'm very big on the Philharmonic.

647
00:32:57,333 --> 00:32:58,791
We sponsor, in fact.

648
00:32:58,791 --> 00:33:01,166
I used to play the violin, very, very badly.

649
00:33:01,166 --> 00:33:04,166
But I have a number of...
Well, actually quite a large musical collection.

650
00:33:05,583 --> 00:33:07,333
Do you play an instrument, either of you?

651
00:33:07,375 --> 00:33:08,708
Because we have these lovely music gatherings.

652
00:33:08,708 --> 00:33:10,000
I do. Yes, I play the...

653
00:33:10,000 --> 00:33:11,583
(GRUNTS)

654
00:33:11,583 --> 00:33:14,583
Various classics, you know, Noel Coward
and Shakespeare and...

655
00:33:15,041 --> 00:33:18,041
- Right.
- We gave her piano lessons when she was a little girl,

656
00:33:18,458 --> 00:33:21,458
but her fingers were just too stubby. So...

657
00:33:21,875 --> 00:33:24,041
Yes, what about you, Mr. Spence?

658
00:33:24,041 --> 00:33:25,791
Well, I play the blues harp.

659
00:33:25,791 --> 00:33:28,166
It's a little metal thing you put in your mouth

660
00:33:28,166 --> 00:33:30,458
- and makes a twanging sound. Very musical.
- Yes, yes.

661
00:33:30,458 --> 00:33:33,458
Used to be called the Jew's harp,
but you know how those people are.

662
00:33:33,750 --> 00:33:36,541
The slightest hint of anti-Semitism
and they write letters.

663
00:33:36,541 --> 00:33:39,541
I would love it if you could
teach me how to fly fish. That would be great.

664
00:33:40,000 --> 00:33:42,541
Oh, it would be my pleasure.

665
00:33:42,541 --> 00:33:45,500
Okay, I want you to watch me very closely.
Pay very strict attention here.

666
00:33:45,875 --> 00:33:47,375
Now I want you to take a card.

667
00:33:47,375 --> 00:33:49,666
- Go ahead, sweetheart. Take it. You got it?
- Mmm-hmm.

668
00:33:49,666 --> 00:33:52,416
Now put it in your pocketbook.
Put the card...

669
00:33:52,416 --> 00:33:53,708
She's gonna put the card in her pocketbook.

670
00:33:53,708 --> 00:33:56,250
You got it?
All right, now tell everybody what the card was.

671
00:33:56,250 --> 00:33:57,875
- It was the six of hearts.
- Six of hearts.

672
00:33:57,875 --> 00:33:58,958
Can I ask you a question?

673
00:33:58,958 --> 00:34:01,333
Was it this six of hearts?

674
00:34:01,333 --> 00:34:02,583
But I just put that in my bag.

675
00:34:02,583 --> 00:34:05,541
Well, check your card.
Check your card.

676
00:34:05,541 --> 00:34:07,333
It's amazing!

677
00:34:07,375 --> 00:34:09,083
You're a wonderful sport, Claire.

678
00:34:09,083 --> 00:34:10,875
I mean that sincerely.
God bless you.

679
00:34:10,875 --> 00:34:13,375
You're a very sweet woman,
and this has been a great group.

680
00:34:13,375 --> 00:34:16,375
From the bottom of my heart,
I say this with all due respect.

681
00:34:16,791 --> 00:34:19,791
You're a wonderful...
A credit to your race and a magnificent group of people.

682
00:34:20,291 --> 00:34:23,125
You know, I must find out who does the hedges here.

683
00:34:23,125 --> 00:34:24,875
Back home, my topiary moose

684
00:34:24,875 --> 00:34:27,250
is starting to look a little shabby around the antlers.

685
00:34:27,250 --> 00:34:29,125
(LAUGHING) What do you do, Mr. Spence?

686
00:34:29,125 --> 00:34:31,333
(STUTTERING) Me?
I'm in real estate.

687
00:34:31,375 --> 00:34:32,875
I'm sorry, I'm in oil!
I'm in oil.

688
00:34:32,875 --> 00:34:34,583
(STUTTERING) I was in real estate,

689
00:34:34,583 --> 00:34:37,583
but, you know, land is so difficult
to come by now, especially outdoors.

690
00:34:39,500 --> 00:34:40,708
It's become a problem.

691
00:34:40,708 --> 00:34:43,458
Incidentally, I accept your invitation.

692
00:34:43,458 --> 00:34:45,958
I will play poker this weekend.

693
00:34:45,958 --> 00:34:48,958
Now that I've seen how good you are at cards,
can we trust you?

694
00:34:49,916 --> 00:34:52,458
(LAUGHING)

695
00:34:52,458 --> 00:34:55,166
Tell me about yourself, Peter.
This is all so new to me.

696
00:34:55,208 --> 00:34:56,916
Well, what would you like to know?

697
00:34:56,916 --> 00:34:59,916
Well, I don't know.
Anything you'd care to reveal.

698
00:35:00,541 --> 00:35:03,500
You know, your hopes, your dreams.

699
00:35:04,458 --> 00:35:07,458
Well, I come from a privileged family,
as I'm sure you can tell.

700
00:35:08,541 --> 00:35:11,500
It was always decided one day
I would enter politics.

701
00:35:11,791 --> 00:35:14,791
My hobbies are polo and...
Oh, I own some racehorses.

702
00:35:15,833 --> 00:35:18,625
- Hmm.
- So, how's that for a start?

703
00:35:18,625 --> 00:35:21,416
(CHUCKLES) And what are your hopes and dreams?

704
00:35:21,416 --> 00:35:24,416
I like to dance and visit museums

705
00:35:25,541 --> 00:35:28,000
- and, oh, I can cook Chinese food.
- Ah.

706
00:35:28,000 --> 00:35:31,000
If you know any good Chinese restaurants...

707
00:35:31,541 --> 00:35:34,541
Oh, I've gotten very interested in New Age
phenomena recently.

708
00:35:36,375 --> 00:35:38,333
Like what?

709
00:35:38,333 --> 00:35:41,333
You know, mystical things like

710
00:35:43,166 --> 00:35:46,166
- astrology and crystals and Tarot.
- Mmm-hmm.

711
00:35:48,083 --> 00:35:50,458
Do you know anything about Tarot cards?

712
00:35:50,458 --> 00:35:52,708
Not really.
I'm more scientific-minded.

713
00:35:52,708 --> 00:35:55,291
I find that if...

714
00:35:55,291 --> 00:35:58,250
What are you staring at?

715
00:35:58,250 --> 00:36:00,208
Hmm? Oh.

716
00:36:00,208 --> 00:36:02,416
You have wonderful enamel.

717
00:36:02,416 --> 00:36:05,166
(CHUCKLING) Thank you. Thank you.

718
00:36:05,208 --> 00:36:08,166
You know, I'd love to take you dancing one night.
I'm a good dancer.

719
00:36:08,208 --> 00:36:10,833
Oh, I would love that.
That would be great.

720
00:36:10,833 --> 00:36:12,500
Can I confess something?

721
00:36:12,541 --> 00:36:13,666
Sure.

722
00:36:13,666 --> 00:36:15,000
I just love an American accent,

723
00:36:15,000 --> 00:36:17,375
and I find much of what you say very amusing.

724
00:36:17,375 --> 00:36:18,541
Oh.

725
00:36:18,541 --> 00:36:20,375
I'll take that as a compliment.

726
00:36:20,375 --> 00:36:22,750
And since you like Chinese food,

727
00:36:22,750 --> 00:36:24,166
I'm gonna have my new secretary

728
00:36:24,166 --> 00:36:26,458
send you a list of the great ones in town.

729
00:36:26,458 --> 00:36:29,000
- Oh, you have a new secretary?
- Oh, yes.

730
00:36:29,000 --> 00:36:31,708
Yes, I'm breaking in someone new.

731
00:36:31,708 --> 00:36:34,708
My previous secretary died, a young woman,
just very suddenly of a blood clot.

732
00:36:35,333 --> 00:36:37,583
It was awful.

733
00:36:37,583 --> 00:36:40,583
Did they do an autopsy?

734
00:36:40,583 --> 00:36:42,541
How did we get on to this morbid subject?

735
00:36:42,541 --> 00:36:44,500
So, you've never seen a real English garden before?

736
00:36:44,541 --> 00:36:47,500
Come.
I have a couple of treasures.

737
00:37:11,541 --> 00:37:14,541
- Would I offend you if I told you something?
- Probably not.

738
00:37:15,750 --> 00:37:18,750
You're very...
Very different from the women I usually meet.

739
00:37:19,708 --> 00:37:21,166
Hmm.

740
00:37:21,166 --> 00:37:22,458
That's a good thing.

741
00:37:22,458 --> 00:37:25,458
Well, I just can't seem to get the vision of
you in your swimsuit out of my mind.

742
00:37:25,708 --> 00:37:27,166
Oh, I'm glad you liked it.

743
00:37:27,208 --> 00:37:28,333
It was marked down.

744
00:37:28,375 --> 00:37:31,125
(CHUCKLES) See, that...
Now that's exactly what I mean.

745
00:37:31,125 --> 00:37:34,125
You just have this very direct
and informal way about you.

746
00:37:34,500 --> 00:37:37,500
- It's... You take after your father.
- Mmm-hmm. Great.

747
00:37:37,875 --> 00:37:40,875
And you have a very sensual quality.

748
00:37:41,166 --> 00:37:43,500
It's... But I'm sure you've been told that.

749
00:37:43,500 --> 00:37:45,916
Wow. You work really fast.

750
00:37:45,916 --> 00:37:48,291
Oh, God. Am I overbearingly aggressive?
I'll stop.

751
00:37:48,291 --> 00:37:49,666
Oh, no, don't!

752
00:37:49,666 --> 00:37:52,041
You just were getting warmed up.

753
00:37:52,041 --> 00:37:53,416
Are you romantic by nature?

754
00:37:53,416 --> 00:37:55,625
I mean, I won't say,
"Do you believe in love at first sight?"

755
00:37:55,625 --> 00:37:58,625
because that's a cliche but...

756
00:37:58,916 --> 00:38:01,250
Have you ever had an experience

757
00:38:01,250 --> 00:38:03,916
where a bell goes off just right away?

758
00:38:03,916 --> 00:38:06,208
(LAUGHS) Sorry.
I need those.

759
00:38:06,208 --> 00:38:07,500
You see, I can't wear contacts.

760
00:38:07,500 --> 00:38:09,791
I don't like to put my finger on my eyeball.

761
00:38:09,791 --> 00:38:12,791
(BOTH LAUGHING)

762
00:38:19,000 --> 00:38:22,000
Well, goodbye.
We must meet for tea and crumpets again.

763
00:38:22,166 --> 00:38:23,208
We really must.

764
00:38:23,208 --> 00:38:25,291
Ta-ta!

765
00:38:25,291 --> 00:38:27,875
I could have strangled you if you didn't shut up!

766
00:38:27,875 --> 00:38:30,166
And stop telling people I sprang from your loins.

767
00:38:30,166 --> 00:38:33,041

I didn't see any safe.

921
00:47:24,541 --> 00:47:27,541
Well, did you accomplish anything besides
maybe a possible pregnancy?

I'll tell you what I did see.

His mother, Lady Eleanor,
has short-cut, brunette hair.

924
00:47:35,041 --> 00:47:38,041
(STUTTERING) Yeah, but not a hooker?

925
00:47:39,333 --> 00:47:41,166
No, Sidney, she's not a hooker!

926
00:47:41,166 --> 00:47:43,958
I hardly think so.
She's practically royalty.

927

Christ, you amaze me sometimes.
Your brain!

928

(STUTTERING) Back off.
You know, you're getting so upset.

929
00:47:49,541 --> 00:47:52,500
I'm just trying to figure out
the various ramifications.

930
00:47:53,541 --> 00:47:54,791
I just don't like this whole thing!

931
00:47:54,791 --> 00:47:57,166
I feel disgusting, all right, it's awful.

932

I don't like the whole process.

00:47:58,666 --> 00:48:00,125
Yeah, you want to think he's innocent.

934
00:48:00,125 --> 00:48:01,666
What's so bad about that, huh?

935
00:48:01,708 --> 00:48:04,000
Jesus, this guy must be some lover, you know.

I mean, all of a sudden you're ready to dump
the whole story.

I must find out what breakfast cereal he eats.

There's a combination on the door

939
00:48:13,166 --> 00:48:16,166
where he keeps his precious musical instruments.

940

<i>Okay, so there is a combination!</i>

941
00:48:17,500 --> 00:48:19,583
I just got to get in that room.

<i>Do you have the combination?</i>

943

We're not gonna break into his room if that's
what you're thinking.

Oh,

Peter's giving a party on Saturday and
he wants me to come.

Well, he certainly seems smitten with you.

Who is Jade Spence?

961
00:49:06,083 --> 00:49:08,000
A would-be investigative reporter

of her investigation.

Just think of one of those cards.

Any one you want.
You got it?

968

All right, now, are you happening to be thinking
of the seven of spades?

969
00:49:32,041 --> 00:49:35,000
- That's amazing! How do you do that?
- Just a little hobby of mine.

You know, I wish I had more time to practice,

but, what with my oil wells, you know,
I never get around to it.

Your daughter's very beautiful.

- You met my daughter?
- Yes.

974

Yes, we're very proud of her.
She's a lovely girl. Overcame a great handicap.

00:49:46,916 --> 00:49:49,500
Yeah. You know, she was learning disabled.

Her mother and I took her to many specialists, you know.

Now she's practically normal, you know.

She's a charmer.

- I'm an Aquarian.

You're Aquarian?

- Yeah, your persuasion.

- I'm a Christian. What are you?
- Yes, are you?

Me, I was born into the Hebrew persuasion,

Would you stop doing those nitwit tricks?

993

What is wrong with you?
You're supposed to be a dignified businessman.

994

I told them it was a hobby.
The hobby of a rich merchant.

I'll meet you down there in a minute.

No, I left it in my other jacket.

So, what are we gonna do?
You gotta go home and get it then.

But not to worry.

(STUTTERING) Yes, a great time!

it was wonderful.

- No, I'm fine, thank you.

00:55:33,666 --> 00:55:35,541
- Can you stay the night, please?
- What?

1072
00:55:35,541 --> 00:55:36,833
- Come on.
- No, I can't.

1073
00:55:36,875 --> 00:55:38,625
- Why not?
- My father.

1074
00:55:38,625 --> 00:55:40,708
Oh, come on, I'll have my driver take him home.

1075
00:55:40,708 --> 00:55:42,666
- No.
- I can't let you go. You're too beautiful.

1076
00:55:42,666 --> 00:55:45,666
(MOANING)
Look at you. I can't.

1077
00:56:59,333 --> 00:57:02,333
(SIGHING)

1078
00:57:39,291 --> 00:57:42,291
Jade?

1079
00:57:47,833 --> 00:57:50,833
<i>- Oh.
- Jade.</i>

1080
00:57:51,083 --> 00:57:53,250
<i>Jade, it's 4:00 a.m.</i>

1081
00:57:53,250 --> 00:57:55,208
<i>What are you doing?</i>

1082
00:57:55,208 --> 00:57:57,333
I couldn't sleep,

1083
00:57:57,333 --> 00:58:00,333
so I thought maybe some milk.

1084
00:58:00,750 --> 00:58:03,750
<i>Hmm.</i>

1085
00:58:04,291 --> 00:58:07,291
- Jade, can I ask you something?
- Mmm-hmm.

1086
00:58:09,666 --> 00:58:12,666
Would you consider not going home at
the end of the summer?

1087
00:58:13,958 --> 00:58:16,375
<i>I don't understand, what more proof do you need?</i>

1088
00:58:16,375 --> 00:58:17,958
What are you gonna tell the police?

1089
00:58:17,958 --> 00:58:20,958
The guy owns a deck of Tarot cards.
That's not a crime.

1090
00:58:21,000 --> 00:58:22,833
I mean, what, he was late for a poker game?

1091
00:58:22,833 --> 00:58:25,208
I'm sure he's smart enough to have an alibi.

1092
00:58:25,208 --> 00:58:28,000
What are we left with?
His mother has short-cut, brunette hair.

1093
00:58:28,000 --> 00:58:29,958
I mean, look, if we blow the whistle on this guy...

1094
00:58:29,958 --> 00:58:32,500
- I know. I understand.
- ...and he's innocent and we can't make the story...

1095
00:58:32,500 --> 00:58:34,291
Then he realizes that you're, you know,

1096
00:58:34,291 --> 00:58:37,291
you're a pushy little phony who's
been playing him for a sucker

1097
00:58:37,375 --> 00:58:39,833
and he dumps you, you know. I get it.

1098
00:58:39,833 --> 00:58:42,166
All right. All I'm saying,
is that in order to make an accusation,

1099
00:58:42,166 --> 00:58:43,291
we gotta have proof.

1100
00:58:43,291 --> 00:58:45,833
Especially about Lord Lyman's son.

1101
00:58:45,833 --> 00:58:48,000
You don't make an accusation.

1102
00:58:48,000 --> 00:58:50,500
We can phone in an anonymous tip.

1103
00:58:50,500 --> 00:58:53,083
You know how many crank tips
the papers say the police get?

1104
00:58:53,083 --> 00:58:55,125
You're gonna phone one in on Peter Lyman!

1105
00:58:55,125 --> 00:58:57,666
They'll hang up on you mid-sentence.

1106
00:58:57,666 --> 00:58:59,000
Besides, if the story's true,

1107
00:58:59,000 --> 00:59:00,500
I want to be the one to break it.

1108
00:59:00,500 --> 00:59:02,000
You know what Joe Strombel said?

1109
00:59:02,041 --> 00:59:05,000
He said, "Get it first, but first get it right."

1110
00:59:06,000 --> 00:59:08,666
Happy birthday.

1111
00:59:08,666 --> 00:59:11,000
Wow, thank you.

1112
00:59:11,000 --> 00:59:13,500
What's up?
You look so sullen.

1113
00:59:13,500 --> 00:59:16,500
No, I'm not. I just...

1114
00:59:17,750 --> 00:59:19,500
I get sad around birthdays.

1115
00:59:19,500 --> 00:59:21,500
Oh, yes, well, I can understand that,

1116
00:59:21,500 --> 00:59:24,000
but I think we're both still young enough
to enjoy the gifts.

1117
00:59:24,000 --> 00:59:25,708
Come on, open it.

1118
00:59:25,708 --> 00:59:28,708
Okay.

1119
00:59:29,416 --> 00:59:31,500
Oh, wow, it's beautiful.

1120
00:59:31,500 --> 00:59:33,000
You like it?
I love it.

1121
00:59:33,000 --> 00:59:35,416
Good. Here, allow me.

1122
00:59:35,416 --> 00:59:37,875
Gosh.

1123
00:59:37,875 --> 00:59:39,375
You shouldn't have.

1124
00:59:39,375 --> 00:59:41,125
I wanted to.

1125
00:59:41,125 --> 00:59:44,125
- Hey, hey, are you crying?
- No, I'm too tough to cry.

1126
00:59:45,458 --> 00:59:46,500
Oh.

1127
00:59:46,500 --> 00:59:49,500
Though my nasal passages do become congested
when I'm sad.

1128
00:59:50,125 --> 00:59:53,125
Oh, don't be sad.
It's your birthday. Hmm?

1129
00:59:53,458 --> 00:59:55,625
Oh, I wish I could celebrate with you tonight.

1130
00:59:55,625 --> 00:59:57,833
I just have to go out of town for a few days.

1131
00:59:57,833 --> 00:59:58,875
Really?

1132
00:59:58,875 --> 01:00:01,875
Yes, I just have some business to take care of.

1133
01:00:02,500 --> 01:00:05,500
- But we'll celebrate when l get back, all right?
- Okay.

1134
01:00:06,541 --> 01:00:08,666
Thank you so much for the present.
It's beautiful.

1135
01:00:08,666 --> 01:00:10,291
I'll think about you whenever I wear it.

1136
01:00:10,291 --> 01:00:13,291
(CHUCKLES)

1137
01:00:13,333 --> 01:00:15,000
You didn't tell me it was your birthday!

1138
01:00:15,000 --> 01:00:16,833
I'll take you for a magnificent dinner.

1139
01:00:16,833 --> 01:00:18,708
- We'll go to a great restaurant.
- Really?

1140
01:00:18,708 --> 01:00:21,708
(STUTTERING)
Do you enjoy the McNuggets thing?

1141
01:00:23,750 --> 01:00:26,750
What about lndian food?
Do you like spicy food?

1142
01:00:27,208 --> 01:00:29,041
No, no, it's okay.

1143
01:00:29,041 --> 01:00:31,166
I don't really have much of an appetite.

1144
01:00:31,166 --> 01:00:34,000
But you will when they bring out
the prawns in hydrochloric acid.

1145
01:00:34,000 --> 01:00:37,000
It's fantastic, Sondra.

1146
01:00:37,000 --> 01:00:38,958
What's the matter?

1147
01:00:38,958 --> 01:00:41,500
- What, are you thinking of Peter?
- No.

1148
01:00:41,500 --> 01:00:42,875
I don't know, it's just...

1149
01:00:42,875 --> 01:00:45,416
I wouldn't be surprised
if he asked me to marry him one day, you know?

1150
01:00:45,416 --> 01:00:48,125
You come from an Orthodox family.

1151
01:00:48,125 --> 01:00:51,125
Would they accept a serial killer?

1152
01:00:51,333 --> 01:00:54,125
That's an expensive present.

1153
01:00:54,125 --> 01:00:57,125
- The Lymans are so wealthy.
- Yes.

1154
01:00:57,541 --> 01:00:59,708
It was almost too extravagant.

1155
01:00:59,708 --> 01:01:02,708
I'd better get ready.
I still haven't found my millionaire yet.

1156
01:01:04,166 --> 01:01:06,250
(SIGHS)

1157
01:01:06,250 --> 01:01:09,250
Oh, God, Sondra, what a mess!

1158
01:01:10,916 --> 01:01:12,333
It's starting to add up against him.

1159
01:01:12,333 --> 01:01:14,166
Bits and scraps are coming together.

1160
01:01:14,166 --> 01:01:15,750
God, it's you!

1161
01:01:15,750 --> 01:01:18,458
I sensed you were falling in love.
I escaped again.

1162
01:01:18,458 --> 01:01:21,458
It's just circumstantial junk, you know.
A coincidence here and there.

1163
01:01:22,166 --> 01:01:24,291
Too much smoke not to be fire.

1164
01:01:24,291 --> 01:01:26,666
Look, I'm sure you've been wrong plenty of times.

1165
01:01:26,666 --> 01:01:27,916
Not wrong here.

1166
01:01:27,916 --> 01:01:30,916
Though I agree you haven't got enough
to pull the trigger yet.

1167
01:01:31,541 --> 01:01:33,833
If you act prematurely, not only does he walk,

1168
01:01:33,833 --> 01:01:36,833
your professional credibility is wrecked,
sometimes for good.

1169
01:01:37,000 --> 01:01:39,041
Oh, I'm sure you want him to be guilty.

1170
01:01:39,041 --> 01:01:41,166
You know, that way you get your last big scoop.

1171
01:01:41,166 --> 01:01:42,666
I'm beginning to fade.

1172
01:01:42,666 --> 01:01:44,541
Sondra, don't let me down!

1173
01:01:44,541 --> 01:01:46,833
I wish you'd fade for good!

1174
01:01:46,833 --> 01:01:48,041
Get out of my life!

1175
01:01:48,041 --> 01:01:49,541
I'm not cut out for this.

1176
01:01:49,541 --> 01:01:52,541
I should be flossing molars for a living.

1177
01:01:53,125 --> 01:01:55,875
The bread is...
You know, I can make a meal just with the bread.

1178
01:01:55,875 --> 01:01:58,000
I can do a whole meal, just nothing but bread.

1179
01:01:58,000 --> 01:02:00,875
If I ate that much bread, I'd be 20 pounds heavier.

1180
01:02:00,875 --> 01:02:02,833
See, I never gain an ounce,

1181
01:02:02,833 --> 01:02:05,833
because, you know, my anxiety acts like aerobics.

1182
01:02:07,208 --> 01:02:09,458
So I get the exercise.

1183
01:02:09,458 --> 01:02:12,250
Thanks for taking me out for my birthday, Sidney.

1184
01:02:12,250 --> 01:02:14,833
Well, you know, you're the daughter that I never had.

1185
01:02:14,833 --> 01:02:16,875
- Oh, that's so...
- No, no, I'm kidding. I'm kidding.

1186
01:02:16,875 --> 01:02:18,666
'Cause I never wanted to have kids.

1187
01:02:18,666 --> 01:02:21,291
I didn't.
Because you have kids, what is it?

1188
01:02:21,291 --> 01:02:24,166
You know, you're nice to them,
you bring them up, you suffer,

1189
01:02:24,166 --> 01:02:25,708
you take care of them

1190
01:02:25,708 --> 01:02:28,708
and then they grow up and they accuse you
of having Alzheimer's.

1191
01:02:30,666 --> 01:02:33,666
Could you ever live in London?

1192
01:02:33,833 --> 01:02:35,375
Could I live in London? No.

1193
01:02:35,375 --> 01:02:37,666
And I love London.
Don't get me wrong, I love London,

1194
01:02:37,666 --> 01:02:40,166
but, you know,

1195
01:02:40,166 --> 01:02:43,166
apart from the language problem,
I can't take the driving.

1196
01:02:43,958 --> 01:02:46,958
Because it, you know, it's on the wrong side, and I...

1197
01:02:47,458 --> 01:02:49,333
Every time I drive a car here,

1198
01:02:49,333 --> 01:02:52,333
I'm convinced I'm going to die in a crash.

1199
01:02:52,916 --> 01:02:54,083
Sidney!

1200
01:02:54,083 --> 01:02:55,708
<i>What's the matter?</i>

1201
01:02:55,708 --> 01:02:57,083
<i>It's Peter.</i>

1202
01:02:57,083 --> 01:02:58,208
<i>You said Peter was out of town.</i>

1203
01:02:58,208 --> 01:03:00,625
<i>Well, that's what he told me.</i>

1204
01:03:00,625 --> 01:03:01,791
Come on.

1205
01:03:01,791 --> 01:03:03,125
What do you mean, come on?

1206
01:03:03,125 --> 01:03:05,500
(STUTTERING)
I ordered prawns.

1207
01:03:05,500 --> 01:03:07,833
Just pay, all right?
Just pay.

1208
01:03:07,833 --> 01:03:10,000
What do you mean, pay?
All I do is...

1209
01:03:10,000 --> 01:03:13,000
Fine, it's her birthday.

1210
01:03:15,375 --> 01:03:16,833
Come on.

1211
01:03:16,833 --> 01:03:19,083
Maybe he's got another woman on the side,

1212
01:03:19,083 --> 01:03:22,083
and he likes you,
but he's sexually attracted to her.

1213
01:03:22,333 --> 01:03:23,583
Thanks, Sidney.

1214
01:03:23,583 --> 01:03:25,291
Well, why doesn't he have his chauffeur?

1215
01:03:25,291 --> 01:03:28,291
I don't know, whatever he's doing,
he must want it to be secret.

1216
01:04:04,166 --> 01:04:07,000
Oh, I told you he went the other way!

1217
01:04:07,000 --> 01:04:08,666
Can we go home, please?

1218
01:04:08,666 --> 01:04:10,500
It's starting to rain.

1219
01:04:10,500 --> 01:04:13,125
(GROANS)
I can't believe he lied to me.

1220
01:04:13,125 --> 01:04:16,125
Maybe he's doing something that he's ashamed
to tell you about.

1221
01:04:16,833 --> 01:04:19,833
Maybe he belongs to one of those clubs,
or he's a cross-dresser or something.

1222
01:04:20,791 --> 01:04:23,041
Or maybe he does folk dancing.

1223
01:04:23,041 --> 01:04:25,541
Oh, I'm sure it's probably something
that when he tells me,

1224
01:04:25,541 --> 01:04:27,666
I'll just feel foolish for thinking he lied.

1225
01:04:27,666 --> 01:04:30,666
I'm sure. You know, not everything in
this world is sinister.

1226
01:04:30,958 --> 01:04:32,791
You know, just practically everything.

1227
01:04:32,791 --> 01:04:35,791
(GROANS)
That Indian food made me sick.

1228
01:04:36,166 --> 01:04:39,166
You hardly touched your cobra salad.
How can you be sick?

1229
01:04:39,458 --> 01:04:41,291
<i>(SCREAMING) Help!</i>

1230
01:04:41,291 --> 01:04:44,291
A woman's been strangled!

1231
01:04:44,458 --> 01:04:47,458
<i>Help! A woman's been strangled!
Help, call the police!</i>

1232
01:04:48,916 --> 01:04:51,000
<i>Somebody call the police!
There's been a murder!</i>

1233
01:04:51,000 --> 01:04:52,333
<i>There's been a murder upstairs.</i>

1234
01:04:52,333 --> 01:04:53,458
<i>Help!</i>

1235
01:04:53,458 --> 01:04:55,500
MAN: Have you got a phone?
Have you got a phone? Call the police.

1236
01:04:55,500 --> 01:04:58,375
Could it be the Tarot Killer?
They found a Tarot card. It's him.

1237
01:04:58,375 --> 01:04:59,833
I can't believe it!
She lives in this building.

1238
01:04:59,833 --> 01:05:02,833
It's him again.
They found the Tarot card.

1239
01:05:03,666 --> 01:05:06,666
Elizabeth Gibson, another short-haired brunette.

1240
01:05:06,708 --> 01:05:09,375
(SIGHS)
We should have gone to the police earlier.

1241
01:05:09,375 --> 01:05:12,375
Well, you know...
You said that they wouldn't believe us

1242
01:05:12,500 --> 01:05:15,041
and they may not.

1243
01:05:15,041 --> 01:05:18,041
Sidney, it's about time we show my story to
a real newspaperman.

1244
01:05:19,666 --> 01:05:21,166
By real, you mean what?

1245
01:05:21,166 --> 01:05:22,666
One that's living.

1246
01:05:22,666 --> 01:05:25,666
Vivian's father has a friend
that works at The Observer.

1247
01:05:27,125 --> 01:05:29,500
Well, it's very vivid and rather shocking,

1248
01:05:29,500 --> 01:05:32,375
and there are
some genuine circumstantial bits of evidence.

1249
01:05:32,375 --> 01:05:35,375
But let me give you a lesson
in professional journalism.

1250
01:05:37,333 --> 01:05:40,333
No newspaper should or would ever run this story.

1251
01:05:41,666 --> 01:05:43,791
What? Why?

1252
01:05:43,791 --> 01:05:46,791
It would be fatally irresponsible and libelous.

1253
01:05:47,583 --> 01:05:50,583
All you have here are a number
of titillating speculations.

1254
01:05:51,375 --> 01:05:54,375
Flamboyant theories that tarnish a man,
and a well-known figure at that,

1255
01:05:55,166 --> 01:05:58,166
without a single shred of substantial proof.

1256
01:05:58,833 --> 01:06:01,166
So his mother was a short-haired brunette.

1257
01:06:01,166 --> 01:06:03,041
So he came late for a poker game

1258
01:06:03,041 --> 01:06:06,041
and said he was going away on a business trip
and he got caught lying.

1259
01:06:06,916 --> 01:06:09,916
Yes, but who keeps a Tarot deck under a French horn?

1260
01:06:12,500 --> 01:06:15,500
It's not against the law to own a Tarot deck,
or keep it wherever you like.

1261
01:06:17,958 --> 01:06:20,333
You'd look pretty foolish in court
with your accusations,

1262
01:06:20,333 --> 01:06:22,333
and that's where you'll wind up.

1263
01:06:22,333 --> 01:06:25,333
Because he'd have no choice but to sue you
and the newspaper,

1264
01:06:25,375 --> 01:06:26,958
and he'd win.

1265
01:06:26,958 --> 01:06:29,166
And to go to the police?

1266
01:06:29,166 --> 01:06:30,416
I'll come to that.

1267
01:06:30,416 --> 01:06:33,416
But first let me continue my tedious
professorial lecture.

1268
01:06:35,333 --> 01:06:37,875
Vivian's dad and I go way back.

1269
01:06:37,875 --> 01:06:40,750
He said you were a journalism student.

1270
01:06:40,750 --> 01:06:42,791
Hmm.

1271
01:06:42,791 --> 01:06:44,583
You talk about getting a tip.

1272
01:06:44,583 --> 01:06:46,500
Okay, you won't disclose your source,

1273
01:06:46,500 --> 01:06:49,500
but what you have done is let
your imagination run wild.

1274
01:06:49,750 --> 01:06:50,875
No, no.

1275
01:06:50,875 --> 01:06:53,875
What if I told you that my source happened
to be a certain Joe Strombel?

1276
01:06:55,083 --> 01:06:57,041
- The late Joe Strombel?
- Yep.

1277
01:06:57,041 --> 01:06:59,541
You mean,
before he died he gave a student reporter

1278
01:06:59,541 --> 01:07:01,958
a major story and didn't follow it up himself?

1279
01:07:01,958 --> 01:07:04,958
We didn't say it was before he died.

1280
01:07:05,791 --> 01:07:07,208
- What?
- No, it...

1281
01:07:07,208 --> 01:07:08,833
He got the story before he died,

1282
01:07:08,833 --> 01:07:11,833
and then he died before he could follow it up.

1283
01:07:13,000 --> 01:07:16,000
(CHUCKLES) Well, why did he give it to you?
He didn't know he was dying.

1284
01:07:16,583 --> 01:07:17,833
I don't buy it.

1285
01:07:17,833 --> 01:07:19,708
I knew Joe Strombel well.

1286
01:07:19,708 --> 01:07:22,666
If he'd had a tip that he considered reliable,

1287
01:07:22,666 --> 01:07:24,791
he would certainly have pursued it himself,

1288
01:07:24,791 --> 01:07:27,791
from the grave, if necessary.

1289
01:07:27,875 --> 01:07:30,750
What about how Peter was in the neighborhood

1290
01:07:30,750 --> 01:07:32,875
the night the murder was committed?

1291
01:07:32,875 --> 01:07:34,000
(CLEARS THROAT)

1292
01:07:34,000 --> 01:07:36,416
I realize as a student how exciting it must have been

1293
01:07:36,416 --> 01:07:39,166
to think that you were onto something so spectacular.

1294
01:07:39,166 --> 01:07:40,708
Hey, she is onto something!

1295
01:07:40,708 --> 01:07:42,833
This kid is a bloodhound.
Look at her!

1296
01:07:42,833 --> 01:07:45,833
She could sell the story to any tabloid in town.

1297
01:07:47,000 --> 01:07:48,958
Hmm.

1298
01:07:48,958 --> 01:07:51,958
Now that I've preached on the realities
of accurate reporting,

1299
01:07:52,166 --> 01:07:55,166
I want to tell you how catastrophic
for everybody involved

1300
01:07:56,250 --> 01:07:58,458
it would have been if you had, say, taken

1301
01:07:58,458 --> 01:08:01,458
the results of your investigation to a tabloid.

1302
01:08:02,916 --> 01:08:05,916
Today, the police have apprehended
the Tarot Card Serial Killer.

1303
01:08:07,083 --> 01:08:10,083
And it most assuredly is not Peter Lyman.

1304
01:08:10,333 --> 01:08:11,666
What?

1305
01:08:11,666 --> 01:08:14,666
<i>Every paper in town is going to press
with it as we speak.</i>

1306
01:08:15,625 --> 01:08:18,625
It was a handyman named Henry Banks who has confessed.

1307
01:08:20,042 --> 01:08:23,042
Banks is a delusional paranoid
who's given Scotland Yard

1308
01:08:23,292 --> 01:08:26,292
information that only the killer could possibly know.

1309
01:08:26,792 --> 01:08:28,667
He's led the police to two additional bodies

1310
01:08:28,667 --> 01:08:31,667
and his DNA and a fingerprint they found check out.

1311
01:08:33,582 --> 01:08:36,582
I know this puts a crimp in your scoop,

1312
01:08:36,667 --> 01:08:39,667
but Henry Banks is the Tarot Card Serial Killer.

1313
01:08:40,332 --> 01:08:43,332
Not Lord Lyman's son.

1314
01:08:44,500 --> 01:08:47,207
Well, I can't say I'm not walking on air.

1315
01:08:47,207 --> 01:08:50,207
Oh, Jesus, If I ever catch that Joe Strombel,
I'll kill him.

1316
01:08:50,500 --> 01:08:52,542
I only hope Peter forgives me for what I've done.

1317
01:08:52,542 --> 01:08:53,707
For what?

1318
01:08:53,707 --> 01:08:55,707
I lied to him.
I'm not Jade Spence.

1319
01:08:55,707 --> 01:08:58,707
I'm a pushy, duplicitous, ambitious college student.

1320
01:08:59,207 --> 01:09:00,332
I lied to him, over and over.

1321
01:09:00,332 --> 01:09:02,707
Darling, he lied to you, too, so it's even.

1322
01:09:02,707 --> 01:09:05,707
His lies pale in comparison to
the enormity of what I've done.

1323
01:09:06,625 --> 01:09:09,625
So marry him as Jade Spence.
Don't tell him.

1324
01:09:09,750 --> 01:09:12,750
(STUTTERING) You know,
you don't have to be Sondra Pransky ever again.

1325
01:09:13,167 --> 01:09:14,667
Marry him as Jade Spence.

1326
01:09:14,667 --> 01:09:17,667
Yeah, but I don't want to have to get you a
Father's Day gift every year.

1327
01:09:18,000 --> 01:09:21,000
You know, I don't know how to break this to you,
honey, but you were adopted. Okay?

1328
01:09:22,707 --> 01:09:24,707
Your mother and I, we were at the orphanage,

1329
01:09:24,707 --> 01:09:27,707
we wanted a handicapped child, and...

1330
01:09:27,750 --> 01:09:30,542
Ah, finally.
Just you and I all weekend.

1331
01:09:30,542 --> 01:09:33,457
Yeah.

1332
01:09:33,457 --> 01:09:35,207
I thought you'd like it here.

1333
01:09:35,207 --> 01:09:38,207
- It's lovely.
- Mmm-hmm.

1334
01:09:39,167 --> 01:09:40,875
- Peter?
- Yes.

1335
01:09:40,875 --> 01:09:43,875
- I have a confession to make.
- Oh, God, so do I.

1336
01:09:43,917 --> 01:09:46,000
Oh, well, let me go first.

1337
01:09:46,000 --> 01:09:47,957
Actually, no, let me, please,

1338
01:09:47,957 --> 01:09:49,332
because mine's been bothering me all day.

1339
01:09:49,332 --> 01:09:50,750
I just want to get it off my chest.

1340
01:09:50,750 --> 01:09:53,750
When I told you
I was going away for a few days on business,

1341
01:09:54,667 --> 01:09:57,667
I was lying.

1342
01:09:57,832 --> 01:10:00,500
- I know.
- You know? How?

1343
01:10:00,500 --> 01:10:02,875
- Oh, I saw you.
- You saw me? No.

1344
01:10:02,875 --> 01:10:05,707
- I was at dinner, and...
- With your father?

1345
01:10:05,707 --> 01:10:08,707
- Actually...
- Well, anyway, it doesn't matter. Really.

1346
01:10:09,292 --> 01:10:12,292
The truth is, that a company my father owns

1347
01:10:13,250 --> 01:10:15,000
is about to merge with a company in the Middle East.

1348
01:10:15,000 --> 01:10:17,000
It's a very sensitive situation,

1349
01:10:17,000 --> 01:10:18,792
and the less anyone knows about it, the better.

1350
01:10:18,792 --> 01:10:20,457
And we just didn't want the press to sniff it out.

1351
01:10:20,457 --> 01:10:21,707
I mean, that's no excuse, really.

1352
01:10:21,707 --> 01:10:24,125
I'm just very sorry for the extreme secrecy.

1353
01:10:24,125 --> 01:10:27,125
No, no, no, it's fine.
I'm glad.

1354
01:10:27,250 --> 01:10:30,250
It's your own secret information.
That's fine.

1355
01:10:31,042 --> 01:10:33,375
So your father took you out for a birthday dinner

1356
01:10:33,375 --> 01:10:35,167
and you saw me.
I mean, how unnerving.

1357
01:10:35,167 --> 01:10:38,167
God, I mean,
the thing I hate most in the world is lying.

1358
01:10:39,125 --> 01:10:40,875
Uh-huh.

1359
01:10:40,875 --> 01:10:43,667
What?

1360
01:10:43,667 --> 01:10:46,582
- Peter...
- Yes, Jade?

1361
01:10:46,582 --> 01:10:47,667
Peter...

1362
01:10:47,667 --> 01:10:49,875
Oh, yes.
What did you want to tell me?

1363
01:10:49,875 --> 01:10:51,000
Uh...

1364
01:10:51,000 --> 01:10:52,832
Jade, there's nothing you can tell me that...

1365
01:10:52,832 --> 01:10:55,832
My name is not Jade Spence.

1366
01:10:56,167 --> 01:10:58,417
It's not?

1367
01:10:58,417 --> 01:11:01,125
No. It's Sondra Pransky.

1368
01:11:01,125 --> 01:11:04,125
And my father is not my father.
His name is Sidney Waterman.

1369
01:11:04,832 --> 01:11:06,792
He's a magician called Splendini.

1370
01:11:06,792 --> 01:11:08,875
I'm a journalism student.

1371
01:11:08,875 --> 01:11:11,875
Don't ask me what kind of crazy
misinformation we received

1372
01:11:13,167 --> 01:11:15,167
to believe you might be the Tarot Card Killer.

1373
01:11:15,167 --> 01:11:18,167
(STUTTERING) I mean, I didn't know you at this time.
Remember?

1374
01:11:19,792 --> 01:11:22,667
And, of course, as soon as I got to know you,

1375
01:11:22,667 --> 01:11:25,082
I knew that it couldn't possibly be true.

1376
01:11:25,082 --> 01:11:27,707
And the police have him now, so everything's fine.

1377
01:11:27,707 --> 01:11:30,167
Of course, along the route I fell for you,

1378
01:11:30,167 --> 01:11:32,875
and now I totally blew it, and...

1379
01:11:32,875 --> 01:11:34,832
Who told you this?

1380
01:11:34,832 --> 01:11:37,832
Oh, a newspaperman.
He's now deceased.

1381
01:11:38,500 --> 01:11:40,957
Very foolish.
He was eager for his last scoop.

1382
01:11:40,957 --> 01:11:43,667
Oh, I'm so sorry. I just

1383
01:11:43,667 --> 01:11:46,667
totally understand if you never want to
speak to me again

1384
01:11:47,250 --> 01:11:49,750

- Miss Pransky.

1385
01:11:49,750 --> 01:11:52,375
Not only am I not angry with you, but you...

1386
01:11:52,375 --> 01:11:55,375
- (LAUGHS) You've absolutely made my day!
- What?

1387
01:11:56,667 --> 01:11:59,082
Just suspecting that I could be such an imaginative,

1388
01:11:59,082 --> 01:12:00,792
dramatic fiend.
I love it.

1389
01:12:00,792 --> 01:12:01,875
- You do?
- Yes.

1390
01:12:01,875 --> 01:12:04,625
I think it's one of the funniest,
craziest things I've ever heard in my life.

1391
01:12:04,625 --> 01:12:06,332
I can't wait to tell the chaps at the club.

1392
01:12:06,332 --> 01:12:08,000
(CHUCKLING)
Peter?

1393
01:12:08,042 --> 01:12:10,000
Yes, darling.

1394
01:12:10,000 --> 01:12:13,000
- I have to ask you something.
- Yes, anything. Absolutely.

1395
01:12:14,582 --> 01:12:17,582
Why did you hide that Tarot deck in your music room?

1396
01:12:20,917 --> 01:12:23,917
How do you know about that?

1397
01:12:24,500 --> 01:12:26,917
I was so paranoid. I...
It's crazy.

1398
01:12:26,917 --> 01:12:29,917
- But I snuck in.
- Oh, dear, it was going to be a surprise.

1399
01:12:30,082 --> 01:12:32,625
I bought them for you.
They're Victorian Tarot cards.

1400
01:12:32,625 --> 01:12:34,667
You told me you were into that kind of thing.

1401
01:12:34,667 --> 01:12:35,792
- What? Oh...
- It was gonna be a gift for you.

1402
01:12:35,792 --> 01:12:38,167
Oh, you're so...
I feel like such an idiot!

1403
01:12:38,167 --> 01:12:40,667
Darling, no, no, no, never mind, never mind.
What a shame.

1404
01:12:40,667 --> 01:12:42,707
- Let's forget about it.
- No...

1405
01:12:42,707 --> 01:12:44,707
Huh? Let's just...

1406
01:12:44,707 --> 01:12:47,707
Now that we've confessed our sins,
let's move on with our lives, huh?

1407
01:12:48,000 --> 01:12:50,875
- Really?
- Yeah. I want to hear all about the real you.

1408
01:12:50,875 --> 01:12:53,750
And I assure you in advance, I'll love it.

1409
01:12:53,750 --> 01:12:55,000
(MOANING) Oh, God,

1410
01:12:55,000 --> 01:12:58,000
you snuck into my music room, did you?

1411
01:13:00,000 --> 01:13:01,875
So the reason why he was skulking around,

1412
01:13:01,875 --> 01:13:03,832
was 'cause he had this private family business

1413
01:13:03,832 --> 01:13:06,332
which is too delicate to discuss, actually.

1414
01:13:06,332 --> 01:13:07,957
Sorry, I don't buy it.

1415
01:13:07,957 --> 01:13:10,917
- What?
- The man is a liar and a murderer.

1416
01:13:10,917 --> 01:13:12,667
And I say that with all due respect.

1417
01:13:12,667 --> 01:13:15,000
- Sidney.
- Child, I know what I'm talking about.

1418
01:13:15,000 --> 01:13:16,292
Don't call me that, all right?

1419
01:13:16,292 --> 01:13:18,417
Do you remember when we were out on the estate,

1420
01:13:18,417 --> 01:13:20,500
I found a clue, you thought I was nuts?

1421
01:13:20,500 --> 01:13:23,500
I thought you were nuts so many times
I can't recall the exact one.

1422
01:13:23,500 --> 01:13:26,500
Do you remember this?
Do you remember this little item? This clue?

1423
01:13:26,832 --> 01:13:29,250
- Yes, Betty G.
- Yes, Betty G.

1424
01:13:29,250 --> 01:13:32,250
Now, I checked all the girls that were murdered.

1425
01:13:33,207 --> 01:13:36,207
The one that was killed the night we saw Peter
on the street, was named

1426
01:13:36,500 --> 01:13:39,500
(CLEARS THROAT)
Elizabeth Gibson.

1427
01:13:39,707 --> 01:13:40,875
So?

1428
01:13:40,875 --> 01:13:43,875
So Betty is short for Elizabeth a lot of times.

1429
01:13:44,167 --> 01:13:47,167
Oh, come on, Sidney.
That's a real stretch. You're reaching now.

1430
01:13:47,332 --> 01:13:50,332
Look, supposing you wanted to rub somebody out
and not get caught.

1431
01:13:51,500 --> 01:13:53,875
Nobody wants to get caught, Sidney.

1432
01:13:53,875 --> 01:13:54,957
Look,

1433
01:13:54,957 --> 01:13:57,957
he wants to get rid of Elizabeth Gibson.
Betty Gibson. Betty Gibson.

1434
01:13:58,832 --> 01:14:01,082
So, there's a series of murders

1435
01:14:01,082 --> 01:14:04,082
with a guy that's got a real style.
A Tarot card.

1436
01:14:04,542 --> 01:14:06,250
They said he was a total maniac.

1437
01:14:06,250 --> 01:14:09,250
He buys a Tarot deck and let's say he hides it.

1438
01:14:09,417 --> 01:14:12,332
Hypothetically,
he hides it, let's say, in a music room.

1439
01:14:12,332 --> 01:14:14,707
- Let's say he hides it in, let's say, a French horn.
- Oh, Sidney.

1440
01:14:14,707 --> 01:14:17,582
- In a French horn!
- I'm losing patience with you.

1441
01:14:17,582 --> 01:14:19,832
I'm not saying the guy did all the murders.

1442
01:14:19,832 --> 01:14:22,500
I'm saying that he just did Elizabeth Gibson,

1443
01:14:22,500 --> 01:14:25,500
then folded it into the series of
the Tarot Killer so he wouldn't get caught.

1444
01:14:26,667 --> 01:14:29,042
Henry Banks confessed to all the murders.

1445
01:14:29,042 --> 01:14:31,457
<i>Henry Banks is deranged!
He hallucinates!</i>

1446

<i>My God.</i>

1447

<i>Henry... And you know those guys like to brag
when they get caught.</i>

1448

<i>Henry Banks, you know...</i>

1449
01:14:37,750 --> 01:14:40,750
Where are you going?
The cops will dump every unsolved murder on Henry Banks.

1450
01:14:42,457 --> 01:14:44,500
They haven't caught anybody in years.

1451

<i>- Peter wouldn't hurt a fly.
- Oh, really?</i>

1452
01:14:47,375 --> 01:14:50,082
What about a fly who speaks?

1453
01:14:50,082 --> 01:14:51,332
- What?
- Yes.

1454
01:14:51,332 --> 01:14:53,750
Why would Peter kill a prostitute?

1455
01:14:53,750 --> 01:14:56,000
Because it looks terrible on his resume.

1456

Who knows what kind of sordid life this guy has?

1457

Have you completely lost your mind?
What is wrong with you?

1458
01:15:01,292 --> 01:15:04,292
Peter being blackmailed by a prostitute?
It's ridiculous.

1459
01:15:04,500 --> 01:15:06,832
What are you putting in your Metamucil?

1460

Where are you going?</i>

You don't understand!
It would kill his reputation!

Can I just tell you one thing?

1465
01:15:18,375 --> 01:15:20,292

No, you're wrong.
I see the glass half-full, but of poison.

And you're gonna wind up drinking it!

I did. I told her.

all suddenly just came to me.

01:18:46,500 --> 01:18:48,667
A blonde? But in the paper...
The pictures in the paper...

1526
01:18:48,667 --> 01:18:49,792
Oh, no, I know, I know.

1527
01:18:49,792 --> 01:18:52,042
She made the mistake of cutting it off
and dyeing it black.

1528
01:18:52,042 --> 01:18:54,167
God knows why.

1529
01:18:54,167 --> 01:18:57,125
Maybe it's to please one of her regulars.

1530
01:18:57,125 --> 01:19:00,042
She had steady clients?

1531
01:19:00,042 --> 01:19:01,667
Well, yeah, one for sure.

1532
01:19:01,667 --> 01:19:04,332
Look, these guys never use their real names, okay?

1533
01:19:04,332 --> 01:19:07,332
But there was this one rich kid that she saw a lot.

1534
01:19:08,417 --> 01:19:11,417
And his name was Peter.

1535
01:19:12,667 --> 01:19:14,500
Peter what?

1536
01:19:14,500 --> 01:19:17,167
Peter...
Peter Yardley. Peter Yardley?

1537
01:19:17,167 --> 01:19:19,167
Yardley. Yardley.

1538
01:19:19,167 --> 01:19:22,167
Hello?
Hello, this is Mr. Spence.

1539
01:19:23,332 --> 01:19:26,332
(STUTTERING) Sid.
Sid Waterman Spence.

1540
01:19:28,167 --> 01:19:31,167
This is Sid Waterman Spence.
Where have I called?

1541
01:19:32,250 --> 01:19:35,250
Oh, hello, Sidney.
It's Peter Lyman.

1542
01:19:35,667 --> 01:19:38,667
Sondra and I are spending
the weekend at my father's country house.

1543
01:19:39,667 --> 01:19:41,417
You could have come.

1544
01:19:41,417 --> 01:19:44,417
That's okay. She gave me this number to call.
May I speak with her?

1545
01:19:45,957 --> 01:19:48,957
Yes, one second.

1546
01:19:54,750 --> 01:19:55,957
Hi, Sidney.

1547
01:19:55,957 --> 01:19:58,957
Listen,
I got a treasure trove of information here.

1548
01:19:59,707 --> 01:20:02,707
I just was snooping with...

1549
01:20:03,167 --> 01:20:05,500
On Elizabeth Gibson.

1550
01:20:05,500 --> 01:20:08,207
She's called Betty. Betty!
She's called Betty.

1551
01:20:08,207 --> 01:20:11,207
And she had some kind of a long relationship...

1552
01:20:11,750 --> 01:20:14,750
A special relationship with some young guy, Peter.

1553
01:20:15,457 --> 01:20:18,457
The last name doesn't click,
but I'm sure it's the same.

1554
01:20:20,582 --> 01:20:22,832
This is crazy.

1555
01:20:22,832 --> 01:20:25,832
Look, stop making trouble, Sidney.
The case is closed.

1556
01:20:26,542 --> 01:20:29,332
Listen, this thing adds up.

1557
01:20:29,332 --> 01:20:32,332
You're alone up there with
a very, very dangerous man.

1558
01:20:33,750 --> 01:20:35,582
That's two verys.

1559
01:20:35,582 --> 01:20:38,250
You got to get back to town right away.

1560
01:20:38,250 --> 01:20:40,500
Sidney, if I thought there was a shred of proof,

1561
01:20:40,500 --> 01:20:43,500
I would never let my personal feelings get involved,
all right?

1562
01:20:43,792 --> 01:20:45,417
The truth is, I'm crazy about the guy.

1563
01:20:45,417 --> 01:20:48,417
I can't keep obsessing over tantalizing
conspiracy theories.

1564
01:20:54,957 --> 01:20:57,875
You know, I'm sure that he killed her

1565
01:20:57,875 --> 01:21:00,875
and made it look like a Tarot killing.

1566
01:21:01,207 --> 01:21:04,207
You know, you don't see it because
you got stars in your eyes.

1567
01:21:05,125 --> 01:21:08,125
Look, I don't...
This is crazy! I don't want to talk about this anymore.

1568
01:21:08,500 --> 01:21:10,250
It's too upsetting for me, all right?

1569
01:21:10,250 --> 01:21:11,625
Let me have my nice weekend.

1570
01:21:11,625 --> 01:21:12,957
I'll talk to you when I get back.

1571
01:21:12,957 --> 01:21:15,957
Stop putting these paranoid thoughts in my head!

1572
01:21:17,332 --> 01:21:19,125
- Is Sidney okay?
- Yes, yes.

1573
01:21:19,125 --> 01:21:21,832
You know, I love Sidney, I really do,

1574
01:21:21,832 --> 01:21:24,417
but he's just...
He's got a part missing, you know, he's crazy!

1575
01:21:24,417 --> 01:21:25,750
- Yes, really?
- Mmm-hmm.

1576
01:21:25,750 --> 01:21:27,375
Like what?

1577
01:21:27,375 --> 01:21:28,582
We'll talk about it later.

1578
01:21:28,582 --> 01:21:31,582
- Let me change, okay?
- Mmm-Hmm.

1579
01:21:50,875 --> 01:21:53,332
Yes? Oh, yes, sir.

1580
01:21:53,332 --> 01:21:56,332
Yes. My daughter is in the country with Mr. Lyman.

1581
01:21:57,457 --> 01:22:00,457
And I'm gonna be driving up there later and she asked me

1582
01:22:00,667 --> 01:22:03,667
if I could pick up her red cashmere sweater.
She thinks she left it upstairs.

1583
01:22:03,957 --> 01:22:05,125
Red cashmere?

1584
01:22:05,125 --> 01:22:07,832
Yes, it's a red sweater.
It's a kind of a red, tomato red,

1585
01:22:07,832 --> 01:22:09,957
like a fire engine.
A red. A rouge.

1586
01:22:09,957 --> 01:22:12,832
- I understand, sir. Red.
- Yes, yes.

1587
01:22:12,832 --> 01:22:15,832
I'll see if I can find it.

1588
01:23:19,000 --> 01:23:20,457
<i>Sir?</i>

1589
01:23:20,457 --> 01:23:23,457
(STUTTERING)
Oh, I was just checking out the Stradivarius.

1590
01:23:24,667 --> 01:23:27,667
I play a few pieces myself on the violin.
Prokofiev and Bartok, the Hot Canary...

1591
01:23:30,000 --> 01:23:33,000
But Mr. Lyman is the only person to have
the combination to that room.

1592
01:23:33,375 --> 01:23:36,375
Yes, but he wanted to share it with me because, you know,

1593
01:23:36,375 --> 01:23:37,917
in case something happened,

1594
01:23:37,917 --> 01:23:39,917
you know, life is very capricious.

1595
01:23:39,917 --> 01:23:42,917
A stroke, a sudden embolism or lightning...
You know I...

1596
01:23:43,832 --> 01:23:45,957
Darling, I love you.
I mean that sincerely.

1597
01:23:45,957 --> 01:23:48,957
You're a wonderful woman, you're a tremendous
servant and a credit to your race.

1598
01:23:49,332 --> 01:23:51,582
And I mean that.
From the bottom of my heart I say that to you.

1599
01:23:51,582 --> 01:23:53,167
I notice you didn't get the red sweater.

1600
01:23:53,167 --> 01:23:54,917
She probably left it in another bedroom.

1601
01:23:54,917 --> 01:23:57,167
You know,
she's got a little problem with promiscuity.

1602
01:23:57,167 --> 01:23:58,542
But...

1603
01:23:58,542 --> 01:24:01,542
So, I'll be going.
I'll call you. We'll have lunch.

1604
01:24:10,042 --> 01:24:13,042
Mr. Lyman, sir, Mr. Spence has been here and he's
been into the music room.

1605
01:24:15,167 --> 01:24:16,750
What do you mean?

1606
01:24:16,750 --> 01:24:18,832
A most unusual sequence of events.

1607
01:24:18,832 --> 01:24:21,167
Mr. Spence came by looking for his daughter's sweater.

1608
01:24:21,167 --> 01:24:22,707
Said she'd requested it.

1609
01:24:22,707 --> 01:24:25,457
Next thing I knew, he was in the music room.

1610
01:24:25,457 --> 01:24:28,457
Sir, I think he'd been drinking, from his behavior.

1611
01:24:28,875 --> 01:24:31,792
Yes, yes.

1612
01:24:31,792 --> 01:24:34,792
Yes. Okay, Margaret, thank you. Goodbye.

1613
01:24:35,500 --> 01:24:36,750
Is everything okay?

1614
01:24:36,750 --> 01:24:39,750
Yes.
Yes, it will be.

1615
01:25:54,707 --> 01:25:57,707
It's so nice to be out here with you, just away

1616
01:25:58,707 --> 01:26:01,207
- from the rest of the world and...
- Hmm.

1617
01:26:01,207 --> 01:26:04,207
Yes, I often come out here to read and,
well, and fish.

1618
01:26:05,792 --> 01:26:08,792
There's trout in the lake.

1619
01:26:16,167 --> 01:26:18,875
What are you thinking about?

1620
01:26:18,875 --> 01:26:21,875
- You really want to know?
- Yes.

1621
01:26:23,000 --> 01:26:26,000
Just how ironic life is, and tragic.

1622
01:26:26,167 --> 01:26:28,000
Why?

1623
01:26:28,000 --> 01:26:31,000
Well, that I met you by rescuing you from drowning

1624
01:26:31,417 --> 01:26:34,375
and found you totally enchanting

1625
01:26:34,375 --> 01:26:37,375
and now we've come full cycle and, alas,
you're going to have to drown.

1626
01:26:40,875 --> 01:26:42,417
What?

1627
01:26:42,417 --> 01:26:45,417
Oh, I imagine by now Sidney's confirmed
that I killed Betty Gibson.

1628
01:26:45,582 --> 01:26:48,582
I mean, in my own defense,
there really was no other way out.

1629
01:26:49,207 --> 01:26:51,582
At first I managed to hide my identity from her,

1630
01:26:51,582 --> 01:26:54,582
but I saw her too many times over the years

1631
01:26:55,000 --> 01:26:57,332
and she learned who I was, and...

1632
01:26:57,332 --> 01:26:59,542
Well, it became a constant demand for money

1633
01:26:59,542 --> 01:27:02,542
and I just could not let that go on, could I?

1634
01:27:02,832 --> 01:27:04,875
I mean, my whole life and career

1635
01:27:04,875 --> 01:27:07,875
would be just hostage to her moods at all times.

1636
01:27:09,957 --> 01:27:12,250
So, I studied the Tarot case,

1637
01:27:12,250 --> 01:27:14,667
I rehearsed my plan, and, well, you know the rest.

1638
01:27:14,667 --> 01:27:16,667
If you do something to me, Sidney's gonna find out!

1639
01:27:16,667 --> 01:27:17,832
He'll tell someone.

1640
01:27:17,832 --> 01:27:20,500
No, no, no.
You see, you will go in a boating accident,

1641
01:27:20,500 --> 01:27:22,625
and Sidney will go later tonight.

1642
01:27:22,625 --> 01:27:25,207
No one knows of your relationship with him,

1643
01:27:25,207 --> 01:27:28,207
because, after all, you're not actually father
and daughter, are you?

1644
01:27:28,500 --> 01:27:31,500
And no one will think twice
to investigate the death of some obscure vaud...

1645
01:27:31,625 --> 01:27:33,167
Are you listening?

1646
01:27:33,167 --> 01:27:35,082
No one will think twice  to investigate the death

1647
01:27:35,082 --> 01:27:38,082
of some obscure vaudevillian called Splendini,
who is really a stranger to me.

1648
01:27:39,375 --> 01:27:40,500
Help!

1649
01:27:40,500 --> 01:27:43,500

01:30:23,000 --> 01:30:24,167
Because the way I first met her

1679
01:30:24,167 --> 01:30:26,500
I rescued her from drowning in our club pool.

1680
01:30:26,500 --> 01:30:29,500
And she was a very, very weak swimmer.

1681
01:30:29,707 --> 01:30:32,167
<i>Hello?</i>

1682
01:30:32,167 --> 01:30:35,000
I was faking it at the pool to get your attention.

1683
01:30:35,000 --> 01:30:38,000
Actually, I used to be captain of
the Brooklyn Community Swim Team.

1684
01:30:52,957 --> 01:30:54,667
Fascinating observation.

1685
01:30:54,667 --> 01:30:57,332
Lyman lost a cufflink at the flat of a prostitute,

1686
01:30:57,332 --> 01:31:00,332
who was later killed by the Tarot Card Killer.

1687
01:31:01,000 --> 01:31:04,000
Well, this upright chap certainly
enjoyed patronizing some dodgy women.

1688
01:31:05,000 --> 01:31:08,000
Unfortunately for Elizabeth Gibson,
she elected to blackmail him.

1689
01:31:09,917 --> 01:31:12,082
It's a beautifully written story

1690
01:31:12,082 --> 01:31:15,082
and one of the best bits
of investigative journalism in a long time.

1691
01:31:16,332 --> 01:31:18,332
And this paper is proud to run it.

1692
01:31:18,332 --> 01:31:21,042
Oh, I have to share the credit with Joe Strombel.

1693
01:31:21,042 --> 01:31:22,167
An inspiration,

1694
01:31:22,167 --> 01:31:24,582
who taught me more than
I could ever explain to anyone.

1695
01:31:24,582 --> 01:31:27,582
And to the late Sidney Waterman.

1696
01:31:28,082 --> 01:31:29,332
Splendini.

1697
01:31:29,332 --> 01:31:32,167
A nice guy who helped out with the investigation

1698
01:31:32,167 --> 01:31:35,167
and without whom I never could have made it.

1699
01:31:36,167 --> 01:31:39,167
Sidney, wherever you are,

1700
01:31:39,832 --> 01:31:42,832
I'll never forget you.

1701
01:31:43,625 --> 01:31:44,875
<i>How did you get here?</i>

1702
01:31:44,875 --> 01:31:46,042
Me?

1703
01:31:46,042 --> 01:31:49,042
I couldn't get used to driving on
the goddamn wrong side of the street!

1704
01:31:49,832 --> 01:31:51,875
(STUTTERING)
You know, I was driving up to the country,

1705
01:31:51,875 --> 01:31:54,875
and in the United States, I would have been a hero.
I would have saved her.

1706
01:31:54,875 --> 01:31:55,957
I would have...

1707
01:31:55,957 --> 01:31:58,542
But here, you know...
That's the one drawback of living in London.

1708
01:31:58,542 --> 01:32:01,542
Granted, the theater's better,
there's many good Indian restaurants.

1709
01:32:01,750 --> 01:32:03,042
Well, what did you do?

1710
01:32:03,042 --> 01:32:05,707
What do I do?
I'm Splendini. Magician.

1711
01:32:05,707 --> 01:32:06,832
(EXCLAIMS)

1712
01:32:06,832 --> 01:32:08,832
- Would you like to see something?
- Oh, yes, please.

1713
01:32:08,832 --> 01:32:10,582
- Do we have time for a card trick?
- Yes.

1714
01:32:10,582 --> 01:32:12,332
I believe we have eternity.

1715
01:32:12,332 --> 01:32:15,167
I'm going to show you a little trick now.

1716
01:32:15,167 --> 01:32:18,167
I just want to say from the bottom of my heart,
I mean this sincerely...

1717
01:32:18,625 --> 01:32:20,042
I say this with all due respect.

1718
01:32:20,042 --> 01:32:22,792
You are a wonderful group and
a fantastic group of people.

1719
01:32:22,792 --> 01:32:25,500
I love you and I feel that coming back from you.

1720
01:32:25,500 --> 01:32:28,500
And you may be deceased,
but you should not be discouraged.

1721
01:32:29,917 --> 01:32:31,332
Because, you know...

1722
01:32:31,332 --> 01:32:33,957
Don't think of being dead as a handicap.

1723
01:32:33,957 --> 01:32:36,167
You know, when I was a child, I stuttered.

1724
01:32:36,167 --> 01:32:38,625
But with stick-to-it-iveness and perseverance,

1725
01:32:38,625 --> 01:32:40,667
you know, you can never tell what could happen.

1726
01:32:40,667 --> 01:32:42,167
Now, I want you to take a card, Alma.

1727
01:32:42,167 --> 01:32:43,500
Go ahead, take any card you want.

1728
01:32:43,500 --> 01:32:45,250
Just pick it. Pick it.
Go ahead, sweetheart.
