00:07:58Are there any volunteers tonight who would like to try?
00:08:02Come on now, gentlemen, don't be shy.
00:08:09If you want me as your slave, come and get me.
00:08:11The rules are simple.
00:08:13A three minute round, that's all.
00:08:16Who wants to be first?
00:08:17You?
00:08:19Who wants to try it?
00:08:21Don't be afraid.
00:08:22Every man here will get his opportunity
00:08:25to take on Mizar.
00:08:27Win one round and I'm yours, all yours.
00:08:32Get up and prove to me you're a man.
00:08:35Come love me, I'm just dying to be dominated
00:08:37by a rugged, powerful He-Man.
00:08:42Doesn't anyone want me for a slave?
00:08:45Just three minutes in the ring.
00:08:48Come on, who'll try?
00:08:51You, you look like a real tough guy.
00:08:55Come on, handsome, show your stuff.
00:08:58Let's you and I do it.
00:09:00Yeah, why don't we do it?
00:09:02What do you say?
00:09:03I'll do it.
00:09:04You met your match, kid.
00:09:06Get ready, winner takes all.
00:09:08All you can handle, and you might be the lucky one.
00:09:11So hurry up and come on and begin.
00:09:13Three minutes, remember.
00:09:15Over here, muscles.
00:09:19Come on, come to Mizar, show your stuff.
00:09:25Come on.
00:09:34Try again.
00:09:37Come on, big boy, be a man.
00:10:55Please!
00:10:56Please!
00:10:57Please!
00:10:58Please!
00:11:00Please!
00:11:15Please!
00:11:16Please.
00:11:27Very good.
00:11:29Hey, come back here.
00:11:32Your three minutes are up, buddy,
00:11:33and there's no overtime.
00:11:34What the hell business?
00:11:37Get your hands off me.
00:11:38Let go of me.
00:11:39What is this?
00:11:40Let go.
00:11:46Let go.
00:11:59Listen, I'd like to see your entertainer.
00:12:04Is it possible to fix up an appointment?
00:12:12Head up.
00:12:14That's nice, like that.
00:12:15Give me more, more now.
00:12:17Profile.
00:12:22One more.
00:12:23Look at him, tease him, torture him.
00:12:28That's it.
00:12:29You're heartless and cruel.
00:12:32Oh, divine.
00:12:34Yes.
00:12:36Yes, darling, make him want you.
00:12:39Driving wild.
00:12:41You could almost drive me wild.
00:12:44Divine.
00:12:45Now back.
00:12:46Heavenly, irresistible.
00:12:48A goddess, but so vulnerable, so human.
00:12:51Now look here.
00:12:52Look at me.
00:12:56Adam.
00:12:57Don't move an inch.
00:13:00No, hey, stop.
00:13:03What's that silly bitch doing?
00:13:05She must be crazy.
00:13:07She must be crazy, crazy, crazy.
00:13:11I'll do it.
00:13:16Jennifer, you feel sick, baby?
00:13:20No, I'm better now.
00:13:21Those lights were so dreadfully hot, I thought I saw.
00:13:27You've been at this three hours, it's too much.
00:13:29Why ruin yourself, baby, there's no money in it.
00:13:32You're so right.
00:13:33Go back to stripping, why don't you.
00:13:34I keep quiet.
00:13:35I'm just so exhausted, forgive me.
00:13:37It happens all the time, even with professionals.
00:13:40Cheer up baby, it's Saturday. I'm going to take in a movie tonight with Angelo, that ball breaker. Ciao.
00:14:10I'm going to take in a movie tonight with Angelo, that ball breaker.
00:14:40I had the impression you appreciated flowers.
00:15:10They are the symbol of what our group has formed.
00:15:23A single body made up of many members.
00:15:28As this flower has many petals.
00:15:54This is your body, and your body is one with us.
00:15:58I belong to the group, and the group is mine.
00:16:06You belong to us now. You pledged yourself, you swore to us and me above all.
00:16:13You're my wife, remember that.
00:16:15Don't expect any more out of me, Adam. Please, I'm tired of this pressure.
00:16:19I want you to return to us again. I need nobody but you.
00:16:23You never loved me. Not really, you pretended to. You're the type that feeds on jealousy.
00:16:28No, Adam. I couldn't stand making love with others.
00:16:51It's the only way you can really be free. Beautiful like some wild flower.
00:16:57You're not any man's special girl, because any man can take you.
00:17:02But I feel so ashamed. I need to belong to someone. No one else.
00:17:11Adam, please stop. It's all over for us. I'm not the same woman.
00:17:15You must see how much I want to forget. Please leave me alone.
00:17:20Just answer me this. Who is he? Who? Tell me about this man of yours.
00:17:25Please!
00:17:28This will help you to remember what our love was like, and forget all other men.
00:17:35No!
00:17:38I swear that you'll come back to me by crawling on your knees.
00:18:08Adam!
00:18:38Adam!
00:19:08Adam!
00:19:38Adam!
00:19:52So hurry up and come on and begin. Three minutes, remember. Over here, muscles.
00:20:00Come on.
00:20:01I don't think you're very funny. Who are you?
00:20:15Try again.
00:20:18Come on, big boy. Be a man.
00:20:48Come on.
00:21:18No!
00:21:37Please let me out of here! No!
00:21:41I don't want to go. Oh, God, no.
00:21:45No! No!
00:21:48Untie me, please. I'll do anything you want.
00:21:56No! No! No!
00:22:16Commissioner, can we let the water out? I'd like to get one dry one.
00:22:19Wait, I'll do it.
00:22:30Well, what do you know, doctor?
00:22:32I'd estimate the death took place around six hours ago, but a simple lab test would be more precise.
00:22:37Let's hope that it is more precise. Try to get me that data today, if you can.
00:22:41Well, up until now, our only concrete bit of evidence is the impression of rubber sole shoes.
00:22:45There are prints all over the carpet.
00:22:46Well, it's something to work on.
00:22:47Yeah, it's something. Living in this city are some two million inhabitants.
00:22:50Who doesn't own a pair of rubber sole shoes? Any luck?
00:22:54No, no fingerprints, Commissioner.
00:22:56All that we found was this little article here, stuck in between the lamp bulb and the socket.
00:23:01A lot of trouble to get the lights out.
00:23:03Oh, and I found this, too.
00:23:06Amazing. Imagine finding this by accident.
00:23:08What is it, evidence?
00:23:10I don't know. It's a Jamaican airmail.
00:23:12A stamp they issued to honor the Queen's coronation.
00:23:16Amazing.
00:23:21Is that stamp really a clue?
00:23:22It's very important. Only it's for the Commissioner. For your information, he has quite a collection.
00:23:27And what's your story? Come on, kid.
00:23:29I brought lunch up to her. The door was open. She always orders a ham salad special plate.
00:23:35So I walked in and saw the bathroom light on and...
00:23:39Yeah, I know.
00:23:42Didn't we see you just yesterday about a murder?
00:23:44Yes, I'm Mrs. Moss, Commissioner. I heard the kids' hysterical yelling.
00:23:48Understand, I'm always at home these days because I can't afford to go out. Who can?
00:23:53Can you imagine what it's like being an elderly war widow?
00:23:57No, but I know what I'll get when I retire, and it's not much.
00:24:01Two killings like this in 24 hours. We earn what we get.
00:24:05The newspapers say there's a crime committed somewhere in this town at the rate of three per minute.
00:24:09Is that a fact? Amazing.
00:24:12Happily, they're not all murders, and they don't all happen in the same building.
00:24:22The girl in the elevator was a high-class hustler. She lived down the street at number 713.
00:24:28The neighbors were almost unanimous that she wasn't a nice girl.
00:24:31Maybe she was on her way to see a customer.
00:24:33The other girl, Mazar Harrington, did some kind of strip number in a casino.
00:24:37One of those clubs where they won't let you in unless you pay a membership fee.
00:24:41A private club, I know. And I happen to know this one. I know the proprietor.
00:24:46Nice guy. Might even do you a favor when there's money in it.
00:24:51What did the autopsies say? Were they sexually molested?
00:24:54Oh, no, nothing like that. One stabbed to death, and the other one drowned.
00:24:57But no carnal violence at all. I mean, that's what the medical report says.
00:25:02Hmm. I want you to take a look at this.
00:25:09Well, I'm looking at it, so what? The stamp isn't worth anything. It's worthless.
00:25:13It's a letter that's interesting. You can forget the stamp.
00:25:21My dearest darling, sin is as black as you, and your color has already started to corrupt me.
00:25:28That type of letter impress you as normal?
00:25:31It's not even signed. It's just some type of scribble, like an S.
00:25:35Yeah.
00:25:38Have you written a list of the people who live in that building, Renzi?
00:25:41Yes, 200 of them, more or less. But most of them are at work during the morning.
00:25:45But you don't go and write letters to a person who's in the same building.
00:25:48You do when you're madly in love.
00:25:51Motors are curious.
00:25:54Now, the job you and I have to do gets more and more difficult.
00:25:58Mm-hmm.
00:26:00A girl can get murdered for no motive at all.
00:26:03Talk about luck. You really picked a winner.
00:26:05Oh, yummy. Thank you, dear.
00:26:07It's hard to find a girl with a body like the one Misa Harrington had.
00:26:10How about those other girls?
00:26:11Don't worry. You got a deal. They need an apartment, don't they?
00:26:14As long as there isn't blood all over the place.
00:26:17Most people wouldn't go near that pad after what's gone on there.
00:26:20Hey, look.
00:26:23Hi, Arthur.
00:26:24Hi there.
00:26:25Tell us, what happened anyway?
00:26:28Here's what happened. He got the lease.
00:26:30Talk about Santa Claus and Merry Christmas.
00:26:32Oh, let's see.
00:26:33Thanks.
00:26:35This is out of sight.
00:26:37Bathroom, bath, terrace, fireplace.
00:26:39You're being very kind to us.
00:26:41Oh, I can't believe my eyes. Look at all that space.
00:26:44Bet you guys that there's even a potting shed to grow pot in.
00:26:47Arthur told me that you were living in a cold water walk-up.
00:26:50Sounds like a miserable little place.
00:26:52Not that what I have could be considered in any way regal.
00:26:55I think it'll be okay.
00:26:56Paint's peeling in places a bit here and there.
00:26:58It's comfortable.
00:26:59It's the place where they murdered me, Thor.
00:27:02Oh, I did tell you, didn't I?
00:27:03No.
00:27:07Well, life goes on.
00:27:10It's the only method possible to empty an apartment.
00:27:12I want Andrea to be the first guest to sample our hospitality.
00:27:15Don't you, Marilyn?
00:27:16Of course.
00:27:18Except, Andy, you never know.
00:27:20The goose that laid the golden egg.
00:27:22That's what that girl meant to this club.
00:27:25Yeah, I can imagine.
00:27:27Until somebody decided to wring her neck.
00:27:29I was broken up.
00:27:31I'll bet you were.
00:27:32I don't make fun, East Commissioner.
00:27:34Look, my customers here wanted entertainment.
00:27:38Yeah.
00:27:39And Misa knew how to entertain.
00:27:40But to me, she was more than just a stripper.
00:27:42More than...
00:27:43Get to the point.
00:27:44The point is, her act was getting more and more...
00:27:46Spirited.
00:27:47Well, yes.
00:27:48She would never fool around with the clientele, though.
00:27:50She didn't take in private customers, either.
00:27:52Ah, a real lady.
00:27:54She was only dedicated to her work.
00:27:55What a poor girl.
00:27:57Finelli, you ought to run a finishing school in here.
00:27:59Where, with your ideals, you'd clean up.
00:28:01I never had anything of more in here.
00:28:03I run a clean show.
00:28:05Oh, can it, Finelli.
00:28:07You've got a record as long as both my arms and legs together.
00:28:10Tell me something.
00:28:11Did that star attraction ever once lose a three-minute game she played?
00:28:14No.
00:28:15They couldn't out-beat her.
00:28:16Well, say some night some brute beat her.
00:28:18What would have happened to her then?
00:28:19But she...
00:28:20What do you think would have happened?
00:28:21Business is business.
00:28:22The guy who beat her would have to be paid.
00:28:24And that means you'd have to make the girl right here in front of the whole crowd.
00:28:27I repeat that such a thing never happened.
00:28:29In three minutes, it's not possible to do so.
00:28:31Yeah.
00:28:32The guy who murdered her took a lot more time.
00:28:34Who knows?
00:28:35I just might have been one of those gentlemen who were here last night.
00:28:37All high-class members whose names are a closely kept secret, no doubt.
00:28:41Who my clients are does not concern the authorities.
00:28:43Commission of the laws and bylaws of this club do not provide for giving in...
00:28:46Do not provide an excuse for closing down your casino.
00:28:50You know, Renzi...
00:28:52The reputation the police have for being brutal to make people talk.
00:28:59A perfectly good reputation.
00:29:01Now listen, Fenelli.
00:29:02You give me all the names of those people who were in this dive last night.
00:29:05And I want the name of the guy who fought with that negro girl.
00:29:07Or this place gets shut, understand?
00:29:10I'll give you the names.
00:29:11You won't close the place, will you?
00:29:16It's not a bad little place, is it?
00:29:18No.
00:29:20Oddly enough, it's the first time I've been in the building.
00:29:26That girl, where did they find her?
00:29:28In the bathroom.
00:29:31I saw the photos in all the newsstands.
00:29:34Hey, what are you two doing in there?
00:29:37We finished.
00:29:39You drying out the bed?
00:29:40Jealous.
00:29:42Why should I be?
00:29:43Jennifer and I always share everything.
00:29:46I only said it so everybody would laugh.
00:29:49No, Archie, I get motion sickness.
00:29:51Here, Jennifer, open this, please.
00:29:52Before we eat, I want to take a shower.
00:29:54And you open this, huh?
00:29:55I'll help you.
00:29:56Sure.
00:30:01I'll do it for you.
00:30:02No, you open the wine.
00:30:03Fine.
00:30:15But I only cut my finger.
00:30:17Hey, you look green. What's the matter?
00:30:23The sight of that...
00:30:25That blood, I'm sorry, but it always...
00:30:29I know it's silly.
00:30:31I'll get some iodine to put on it.
00:30:34And you eat something, it'll settle your stomach.
00:30:48Hi there.
00:30:49Excuse me, do you have some iodine or some alcohol?
00:30:51It'd just be great.
00:30:52The fact is, my girlfriend just stuck a can opener into her hand.
00:31:04The world would be a happier place if everyone had the same phobia about blood as myself.
00:31:08Who needs blood?
00:31:09Strangle, it's the clean way.
00:31:11Neither Harrington.
00:31:12It was you.
00:31:13There's no blood killing that way.
00:31:17Is it so amusing to you?
00:31:20Excuse me, I'm heading for the showers.
00:31:26She's a funny girl.
00:31:29But sometimes she just doesn't sing.
00:31:31It's my fault, not hers.
00:31:35I wish I could forget Misar.
00:31:38She was a beautiful girl.
00:31:41Yes, she was.
00:31:43Did you know her well?
00:31:44Only by her photograph. We never actually met.
00:31:53Can you hear a violin?
00:32:01Pretty.
00:32:03Oh yes, it must be that retired university professor in the apartment next door.
00:32:08But...
00:32:10Before you told me, you'd never visited the building.
00:32:14No.
00:32:15The fact is, our office gets I don't know how many irate phone calls each day.
00:32:19And half of them are about the professor who plays his violin into the wee small hours.
00:32:24I came up here with the idea that you'd feed me.
00:32:26Marilyn, come on, supper's ready.
00:32:28You call her, or we'll be here till midnight.
00:32:36Marilyn, dinner's ready.
00:32:45Marilyn, come on, are you finished yet?
00:32:48Please answer.
00:32:52Marilyn!
00:32:54Answer me, Marilyn!
00:32:55Answer me, Marilyn!
00:33:10I'm a ghost!
00:33:13Marilyn, have you gone crazy tonight? What's with you?
00:33:15My God, this is where they murdered that girl Misar.
00:33:18Murder isn't a joke for heaven's sake, you idiot!
00:33:20Hey, big boy, what's the matter? You act like you did it.
00:33:26After that, it wouldn't surprise me if he made us move out.
00:33:29All right, I won't take baths anymore. Only showers.
00:33:33Oh, boy. He's strange, that one, I'm telling you.
00:33:35Why?
00:33:36The sight of blood's enough to turn his stomach, and he won't let anybody talk about that black girl.
00:33:40Besides, he hit me.
00:33:42Pretty nearly cracked the jaw on my ear.
00:33:46I must be nuts. Do you hear a violin or is it my imagination?
00:33:49Marilyn, for God's sake!
00:33:56No!
00:34:10Ruby, where the hell aren't you? And she belongs to me.
00:34:12Well, you won't have her, you bastard, because she's mine. Mine!
00:34:16Are you crazy?
00:34:17No one's going to have her except me. Jennifer belongs to me, soul and body.
00:34:20She's mine, and I'll kill anyone who comes near her.
00:34:23Hey, wait!
00:34:35Mighty nice. I'll have copies of that put up all over headquarters.
00:34:39Our place could use some good artwork.
00:34:42Not bad, huh, Commissioner?
00:34:45Yeah.
00:34:46You know, it strikes me.
00:34:48The reason everybody says a religion is dead is because they've been led to believe there'd be just spirits when they die.
00:34:56I prefer to follow Islam, where paradise is palm trees and lovely girls.
00:35:01Islam?
00:35:04A paradise like that would be prohibited to minors under 21.
00:35:09And what fun would that be?
00:35:13We live in a degenerate age, Commissioner. Isn't she mouthwatering?
00:35:16Well, I run the subject of publicity. Is that why you gave Andrea Barto that photo?
00:35:22The photo of Misa Harrington? Well, naturally, for publicity.
00:35:25Oh, honestly, you policemen are the limit.
00:35:27To think that Mommy and Daddy wanted me to be a civil servant when I grew up.
00:35:32Come on, have a drink. There's cognac, gin, there's garters, brassieres.
00:35:37Have you and Barto been friends for a long time?
00:35:43Ever since childhood.
00:35:44Ever since childhood.
00:35:47We went to school together.
00:35:50What kind of a person is Barto?
00:35:52What kind of person?
00:35:55Anything peculiar about him?
00:35:58Some of us go wild with a camera, others specialize in little girls and so on.
00:36:05Oh, Commissioner, just between you and me, Andrea does have a peculiarity that I don't understand and I'm afraid it's incurable.
00:36:11You see, he's absolutely mad about money.
00:36:15Thanks for the whiskey.
00:36:16No, underneath.
00:36:44What's wrong?
00:37:10Jennifer, what's wrong? You're hysterical.
00:37:12Are you having a nightmare? Why didn't you open the window?
00:37:16I didn't. It was a man.
00:37:18What's that again?
00:37:20What are you saying? You weren't dreaming?
00:37:22I saw him.
00:37:24It was a man.
00:37:25Who?
00:37:26I couldn't tell in the dark.
00:37:28I screamed and he ran.
00:37:30Well, why didn't you ask him to stick around?
00:37:33You dreamed it all, you nut.
00:37:35Listening to that brute architect, I'm not surprised you're seeing strange men every place.
00:37:38It turns your head, all that scary talk.
00:37:40Marilyn, I really did see a man. Not his face, no. It was too dark, but he touched me.
00:38:07He's flown the coop.
00:38:09He's flown the coop.
00:38:11Dracula.
00:38:12I'm positive. I don't know how he got away.
00:38:16But you must believe me, he was here.
00:38:21You're just frustrated. What I think you need is to spend the whole night with a man.
00:38:25You made a big mistake going from group sex to a vow of chastity.
00:38:31Or did I scare you pretending I'd been drowned in the bath?
00:38:35I'm sorry, that was stupid.
00:38:37Well, anyhow.
00:38:40Betty, bye.
00:38:42Night now.
00:38:56Ten thousand a room.
00:38:59That makes it fifty thousand an apartment, doesn't it?
00:39:02I guess I went into the wrong business, didn't I?
00:39:05It's too late now. At my age, a policeman's never going to save the money to buy an apartment.
00:39:09I'd like to stay and chat, but I need to earn a little of that money too.
00:39:13I have a very important appointment and it's getting late.
00:39:15How about making a simple telephone call and make your excuses?
00:39:19The place has no phone. It happens to be a new building.
00:39:28Did he say when he'd be here?
00:39:30Did he say when he'd be here?
00:39:33Watch that broad over there.
00:39:37The one with the big hat.
00:39:42Well, so what?
00:39:48Just watch me. Wait here.
00:39:55Hello.
00:39:56Why hello?
00:39:57My pal and I just moved into that apartment where that negro girl lived.
00:40:01I meant to call on you. I'm next door, number eighty. I'm Sheila Isaacs.
00:40:06My name is Marilyn. Marilyn Ritchie.
00:40:08Hello, Marilyn. Do you work in town?
00:40:11Sheila, did you ever make friends with that girl who was murdered or talk to her?
00:40:15Occasionally. We used to see each other on the stairs, just in passing.
00:40:20I heard that she was rich. That whenever she worked, she made at least seventy a night.
00:40:24That's pure gossip.
00:40:25Are you that interested in making money?
00:40:32Sheila, my dear, who's your pretty young friend?
00:40:34Dad, this is our new neighbor, Marilyn Ritchie. She just moved in next door.
00:40:38Hello.
00:40:41Marilyn, I'll go along home, in case he decides to phone up.
00:40:46Okay.
00:40:48Lovely, isn't she, Dad?
00:40:50Jennifer's the beauty in our family.
00:40:52Is she your sister?
00:40:54No. Pals.
00:41:22I'm not making an accusation, Mr. Bartow. I just want to get things straight.
00:41:42And I'm not blaming you for anything.
00:41:44In fact, given your chances, I probably would have acted the same way myself.
00:41:48Well, sure, we're all human, and every man wants a black girl.
00:41:53As gorgeous as she was.
00:41:56Sin can be as black as you, and your color has corrupted me.
00:42:01Look, Commissioner, I'm not interested in your sex fantasies.
00:42:04You didn't come here for that, did you?
00:42:06You might say so, in a certain sense.
00:42:19Hello?
00:42:28Hello?
00:42:37Get out of here. I'll call the police.
00:42:41Go ahead.
00:42:43Say your husband came to violate you.
00:42:53Don't be afraid. I'm the man you married, remember?
00:42:58I'll teach you.
00:43:05I'll tear you as I tore the petals of the iris.
00:43:08You're an object and you belong to me.
00:43:10From the day of our celestial marriage, you belong to me.
00:43:17Well, what is it?
00:43:18What is it? You paid it, remember now?
00:43:20The night you had dinner with Mieser-Harrington at her club.
00:43:22You left the place with her afterwards.
00:43:24Yes, Commissioner, but I really don't...
00:43:26Mr. Bartow, there's nothing criminal about dinner for two at a nightclub.
00:43:30Nothing at all.
00:43:32But you shouldn't be surprised that you were seen,
00:43:34because a girl like that is bound to be noticed.
00:43:36You shouldn't be surprised that you were seen,
00:43:38because a girl like that is bound to be noticed wherever she goes.
00:43:41And, well, we live in a very, I would say, provincial town.
00:43:44But, Commissioner, we ate together.
00:43:46And when we were finished, I got a...
00:43:48Yes, yes, I'm aware of that, quite aware of that.
00:43:50You flagged a taxi and went home.
00:43:52The police can always be relied upon for thoroughness.
00:43:55Oh, come now.
00:43:56You mean to say, Commissioner, that you thought I might be a suspect?
00:43:58That I could go crazy and murder a girl like that?
00:44:01Well, you took plenty of time before you even admitted you'd met the girl.
00:44:05I wasn't really involved with her.
00:44:07Sure, any man might do just the same.
00:44:09But the fact of the matter is that you could go to jail
00:44:11on circumstances like that.
00:44:13First, we get a prosecuting attorney to present the facts.
00:44:16Then we have a young architect who likes far-out entertainment.
00:44:19Then the body of a girl is found in an elevator,
00:44:21and the girl who found the corpse is drowned in the same apartment house.
00:44:24And by a coincidence, which seems to me pretty phony,
00:44:27the last person to see that poor girl alive
00:44:29is the architect who so very conveniently
00:44:31has all the plans of the apartment house building
00:44:33where the murders have been taking place.
00:44:36Is that all?
00:44:37That story would make a judge's ears burn
00:44:40so you can guess how it hits a poor cop like I am.
00:44:44Better have a good lawyer.
00:44:46It might be a good idea not to leave town for a few days, Mr. Bartow.
00:44:51You may be taking a vacation sooner than you imagine.
00:45:04Bartow.
00:45:05Ah, Jennifer. Great. I was...
00:45:08What's that?
00:45:09A police car.
00:45:10But the commissioner has just been here.
00:45:15I'll come as fast as I can make it.
00:45:17That's him.
00:45:25Don't lose sight of him.
00:45:26Check in regularly.
00:45:28Yeah, okay, boss.
00:45:33What happened?
00:45:34Oh, I'm so glad you're here.
00:46:04Adam continues to bother you?
00:46:06You can't imagine.
00:46:10You mustn't let him do it.
00:46:13I would let the police take care of that.
00:46:17Try to put the whole thing out of your mind, if you can.
00:46:34And that's not all. Eight courses.
00:46:36Champagne, chocolate cake.
00:46:41And now Irish coffee with whipped cream on it.
00:46:44Bet that costs a leg and a...
00:46:46Huh?
00:46:50Come inside.
00:46:51It's me again, boss.
00:46:53What have you got?
00:46:54I've got a case.
00:46:55What case?
00:46:56I've got a case.
00:46:57I've got a case.
00:46:58I've got a case.
00:46:59I've got a case.
00:47:00I've got a case.
00:47:01What have you got, boss?
00:47:02What have you got?
00:47:03Not a damn thing.
00:47:04They walked through the park for half an hour,
00:47:06and then they sat down on a bench for another 15 minutes,
00:47:08and now they're walking again, holding hands,
00:47:10and smiling at each other.
00:47:12Yeah.
00:47:14It's disgusting.
00:47:15Romeo and Juliet.
00:47:17I don't know what she sees in that guy.
00:47:20Oh, Jesus, where'd they go now?
00:47:21Hold the phone.
00:47:25I'll call you back.
00:47:31Bye.
00:47:36So long.
00:47:38Andrea, thank you.
00:47:40For everything.
00:47:42Don't thank me just yet.
00:47:43Wait till I've tried to make it with you,
00:47:45and you find out what a bastard I am.
00:47:47You couldn't be.
00:47:48Don't be too sure.
00:48:01Oh, God.
00:48:31Shh.
00:49:02Shh.
00:49:04Shh.
00:49:30Adam, let go of me.
00:49:31Be quiet.
00:49:33But...
00:49:35But you're not Adam.
00:49:37Don't move.
00:49:38You mustn't move.
00:49:39Don't move.
00:50:02No!
00:50:06Let me go!
00:50:07Let me go!
00:50:08Help!
00:50:18Help!
00:50:19Open the door!
00:50:21Quick, close the door!
00:50:23Please, help me!
00:50:24My dear, what's wrong?
00:50:26Did your boyfriend get a little overexcited?
00:50:29No.
00:50:30Someone...
00:50:31Someone attacked me.
00:50:32I couldn't see who it was.
00:50:33He was masked and...
00:50:35waiting for me.
00:50:36I must say, you tempt any human being.
00:50:39Don't worry about it.
00:50:40You'll be okay.
00:50:41If you'll let me, I'll give you something to put on.
00:50:43Oh, my name is Sheila.
00:50:45I saw you in the drugstore this morning.
00:50:48What's your name?
00:50:49Jennifer.
00:50:50Jennifer Langsbury.
00:50:53You're English, aren't you?
00:50:54I met that friend of yours, Marilyn.
00:50:57You're the two new tenants.
00:50:58Here.
00:50:59I was hoping you'd get a chance to meet.
00:51:02You look as though you were scared to death.
00:51:05I know.
00:51:06It was horrible.
00:51:07I couldn't realize what was happening.
00:51:10He tried to kill me.
00:51:24Hello, Dad.
00:51:25Hello, Dad.
00:51:33Let me apologize for Dad.
00:51:35He's really getting into a second childhood.
00:51:37Not that we have very much to say to each other.
00:51:39You know how it is.
00:51:42Afraid?
00:51:43I'll go back with you.
00:51:44No, please, Sheila.
00:51:45I'd much rather call the police.
00:51:46Yes, we'll call.
00:51:47But we might as well take a look.
00:51:49Don't be afraid.
00:51:51I'll be right beside you.
00:51:56Look at that.
00:51:57Look at that lamp.
00:51:59He did that when he attacked me.
00:52:07There's nobody here now.
00:52:08I admit this place is frightening since that poor girl was killed.
00:52:11Come on, now.
00:52:12Lie down for a little while.
00:52:13You look tired.
00:52:14I'm fine.
00:52:15I'm fine.
00:52:16I'm fine.
00:52:17I'm fine.
00:52:18I'm fine.
00:52:19I'm fine.
00:52:20I'm fine.
00:52:21I'm fine.
00:52:22I'm fine.
00:52:23I'm fine.
00:52:24Lie down for a little while.
00:52:25You look tired.
00:52:27I'll call the police, dear.
00:52:28You take a rest.
00:52:29Don't worry.
00:52:30I won't leave you alone.
00:52:36Well, what are you two doing?
00:52:38Oh, Marilyn, I was attacked right in the house.
00:52:40I was almost killed.
00:52:41Again?
00:52:42This is where I came in.
00:52:44You mean it's happened before.
00:52:46So she says.
00:52:49What's that?
00:52:55It's blood.
00:53:12Why an iris?
00:53:14Because Adam thought it a symbol.
00:53:16Ah, a symbol of passion.
00:53:19You claim he loved you.
00:53:20He must have in spite of his crazy ideas.
00:53:22He followed you around.
00:53:24But he could still never convince you that he was a man in your life.
00:53:28You refused him and he killed himself.
00:53:31Just an idea.
00:53:32A very silly idea.
00:53:34I know.
00:53:37Well, then let's try something more intelligent.
00:53:39For example, your husband was a sadist.
00:53:42He beat you.
00:53:43To have any kind of satisfaction with a man like that,
00:53:45a woman would have to be a masochist.
00:53:47And the fact of the matter is that you're not at all like that.
00:53:49Your husband had a mania for group sex which revolted you.
00:53:53He used to poke juice into his brain to cure his headaches and you didn't like that either.
00:53:57He even tried raping you.
00:53:59From what I can tell,
00:54:01there are plenty of good reasons here
00:54:03for a person wanting to murder an individual like him.
00:54:05There's still the mystery man, Commissioner.
00:54:07Mystery, all right.
00:54:09I'm well aware of that.
00:54:11But doesn't it seem a bit far-fetched?
00:54:13You think I imagined it all, don't you, Commissioner?
00:54:15Could I rip my own clothes off after I'd killed a man
00:54:17and put his body in the closet?
00:54:19No, the theory doesn't hold water.
00:54:21Happily for you.
00:54:23No one suspects you.
00:54:25Somebody murdered those two beautiful girls
00:54:27just before you and your friend moved into that building.
00:54:32Your makeup's running.
00:54:35I feel ridiculous.
00:54:37Come on, a pretty girl is never ridiculous.
00:54:40Uh,
00:54:41I'll do what I can to help both of you.
00:54:44But, uh, you've got to help me.
00:54:46Help you?
00:54:47I'd like you to keep living in that house.
00:54:50You can't be serious.
00:54:51I'm serious.
00:54:54Of course, you're perfectly free to say no.
00:54:56But I'm sure it's worth the risk.
00:54:58You'll be the bait to trap the killer.
00:55:00Naturally, we'll be keeping you under complete surveillance.
00:55:04Once in a while, we manage to do things right.
00:55:06Now, how about something to drink?
00:55:08I think we could all use one.
00:55:11Renzi, where are the glasses?
00:55:14Boss, I filed the glasses.
00:55:16Under B.
00:55:17For bar equipment.
00:55:19Where else?
00:55:23One thing.
00:55:27Don't trust your neighbors.
00:55:28Which neighbors?
00:55:29The women.
00:55:31The women?
00:55:32Yes.
00:55:33Don't trust your neighbors.
00:55:34Which neighbors?
00:55:35The women.
00:55:39Tell me exactly how he put it to you.
00:55:43We should keep our distance, especially from Sheila.
00:55:45The poor thing should visit Denmark.
00:55:47He did, huh?
00:55:48Yes, I swear he did.
00:55:49Incredible.
00:55:50Who'd imagine a policeman could be so charming?
00:55:55Ava, no.
00:55:57Don't shout.
00:55:59They'll hear you.
00:56:04Marilyn?
00:56:06Who are the neighbors in the apartment next door?
00:56:08That a woman who wouldn't let us have any alcohol?
00:56:10Do you like this polish?
00:56:12I hear another voice.
00:56:14Somebody's arguing with her.
00:56:16Could be a lover, the meat of man,
00:56:18or the ghost of the husband who passed on, huh?
00:56:25It sounded like the voice of the man who came at me yesterday.
00:56:28Mad, completely crazy.
00:56:30Unearthly.
00:56:31He begged, he spoke quietly, he whimpered.
00:56:33I resisted and he began to yell at me.
00:56:46Hmm.
00:56:47You've got great ears.
00:56:50Don't you hear a man's voice?
00:56:52We can't trust them.
00:56:53We can't trust anyone except the Lord and his blessed saints.
00:56:56Afraid I don't.
00:56:57Just old Lady Moss, heaven forbid.
00:56:59Just old Lady Moss having a heart-to-heart talk with herself.
00:57:03At least she never loses an argument.
00:57:29Stamper.
00:57:45Stamper.
00:57:46That all for you, lady?
00:57:48Is that Horror Tales?
00:57:50Oh, yeah, here you are.
00:57:52Full of blood and gore this week.
00:57:53You'll love it.
00:57:59She buy those horror stories all the time?
00:58:01To really like Horror Tales, you have to be nuts.
00:58:04She only buys Horror Tales.
00:58:06If you ask me, she's got something loose up here.
00:58:08Yes, sir.
00:58:09I'll see you.
00:58:22Mister, this your car?
00:58:25Oh.
00:58:27Sorry.
00:58:32How the hell do they do it?
00:58:33They don't smell me.
00:58:48Yeah?
00:58:49Well, sure I understand.
00:58:50It's boring the daylights out of you.
00:58:52And look, Rancy, there's just no other job I can put you on right now.
00:58:55Come again?
00:58:58No, you stay on him and don't lose him or you'll be transferred to the fire department.
00:59:02Yeah?
00:59:03This is the handwriting analysis on that wacky love letter.
00:59:08Are they certain?
00:59:09Sure are.
00:59:10I should have guessed.
00:59:11Not exactly what you call friends.
00:59:13But I'd met her in the hall and we'd chatted a while together.
00:59:16Then why go to the bother of mailing a letter?
00:59:18You waste valuable stamps like that.
00:59:20Oh, I intended the letter...
00:59:22to be amusing.
00:59:25I wrote it as a joke.
00:59:27A joke?
00:59:28Say, how about joking with a man?
00:59:30You might make out even better.
00:59:32You know, it's a shame to see a beautiful girl like you wasting her talents.
00:59:35Try the opposite sex.
00:59:36That's what we're here for.
00:59:38Don't be embarrassed.
00:59:39And whenever you'd like to write any more letters, write to me.
00:59:42I prefer dropping the subject.
00:59:44My father's probably listening.
00:59:46There's some things I'd rather he didn't know.
00:59:48I get it.
00:59:49There's some things I'd rather he didn't know.
00:59:51I get it.
00:59:52Poor man has problems enough, doesn't he?
00:59:55Does he happen to know Andrea Barto, by the way?
01:00:15I waited this long because I wanted you to be sure.
01:00:19I'm really in love with you.
01:00:21Just trust me.
01:00:49I love you.
01:01:19I love you.
01:01:49I love you.
01:02:06I love you.
01:02:19I love you.
01:02:38It's Renzi, boss.
01:02:39Those two are really going at it.
01:02:40Don't be surprised if instead of a corpse we get a birth on our hands.
01:02:43Don't waste your wisecracks.
01:02:44The commissioner isn't here.
01:02:46Great. Now what shall I do?
01:02:47You can hold the towel.
01:02:48Boy, you're funny. Up yours, too.
01:03:18Hi.
01:03:49Marilyn.
01:03:50Are you ill?
01:04:18Oh, my God.
01:04:49They did it!
01:05:04He's a policeman.
01:05:05Yeah.
01:05:06He's going to go on.
01:05:10She's just...
01:05:11She's just wiped out.
01:05:18Oh, what have they done?
01:05:48Oh, my God.
01:06:19This bar got a phone?
01:06:21Nothing but a private telephone, sir, but only the boss keeps a key.
01:06:24Oh, great. Thanks a whole lot.
01:06:26Anything for the police.
01:06:27Be seeing you.
01:06:29You ought to be demoted immediately.
01:06:31You let him get away when I was going to arrest him.
01:06:33But I never let him out of my sight.
01:06:34Not even to take a leak.
01:06:36Well, take a leak now, why don't you?
01:06:37I'm sick of the sight of you.
01:06:38The girl was already covered with blood.
01:06:39Go on, take a leak.
01:06:40Go on, take a leak.
01:06:41Go on, take a leak.
01:06:42Go on, take a leak.
01:06:43Go on, take a leak.
01:06:44Go on, take a leak.
01:06:45Go on, take a leak.
01:06:46Go on, take a leak.
01:06:47The girl was already covered with blood
01:06:48before that guy got to her.
01:06:49It was dripping on the side.
01:06:50What the hell has your opinion got to do with it?
01:06:52The superintendent wants somebody arrested, Ramsey,
01:06:54and you let a suspect get away.
01:06:55You're a horse's ass.
01:06:59Believe me, Commissioner, Andrea didn't do it.
01:07:01What motive did he have?
01:07:02Yes, yes, I know that.
01:07:03Sit down.
01:07:04You know that it just isn't possible.
01:07:06You mean it's not probable?
01:07:07Let's say he only kills occasionally.
01:07:09It's just that at certain moments he goes crazy.
01:07:11No, I'm sure he's not mental.
01:07:12And besides, he had no reason to murder Marilyn.
01:07:14Ah, so you said.
01:07:15But people who are there claim he definitely did it.
01:07:17They're mistaken because I'm sure he didn't.
01:07:20I cut myself the other night
01:07:22and Andrea got sick over a little bit of blood.
01:07:24He was ready to faint.
01:07:25Just the sight of it made him ill.
01:07:27Ah, that's interesting.
01:07:28But we still must admit that it could be used against him
01:07:31to show he's unbalanced.
01:07:32It's natural for anyone with a phobia like that
01:07:35to be attracted to the sight of blood in a way.
01:07:37Some maniacs pass themselves off as normal.
01:07:40It happens.
01:07:41Who's to say Andrea Potter isn't a maniac?
01:07:43I'm certain that he's not.
01:07:44I'll tell you how he murdered that girl today.
01:07:47Marilyn went out shopping.
01:07:48He waited for her.
01:07:49She thought he wanted to help carry packages.
01:07:51Her blood was all over his coat as he killed her.
01:07:53And you believe he was innocent?
01:07:55Please, Commissioner, that's all lies.
01:07:57All lies.
01:07:58Number one was a prostitute
01:07:59and they might have been seeing each other.
01:08:01We know that he saw the Harrington girl
01:08:03on the same night she was killed.
01:08:05Then he started playing around again.
01:08:07This time with you and your roommate.
01:08:08He arranges for you to take over the dead girl's apartment
01:08:11in a building which his firm manages.
01:08:13Murders Adam and hides his body in a closet.
01:08:17Besides what he did to your roommate.
01:08:19You don't care who the real murderer is
01:08:21so long as somebody fries for it.
01:08:23You pounce on Andrea saying you know he's guilty
01:08:26because he's crazy.
01:08:28Brilliant police.
01:08:29Barto isn't arrested yet.
01:08:31We...
01:08:33We haven't any proof that he's the one.
01:08:43Thank you.
01:09:13Thank you.
01:09:44I don't want to stay here any longer.
01:09:46I want to go out.
01:09:47Let me go out.
01:09:48I don't want to hurt anybody.
01:09:50I never hurt anybody.
01:09:52Please.
01:09:53Please let me go out.
01:09:54Just for a little while.
01:09:56I promise I'll come right back.
01:09:58Please.
01:09:59Now hush.
01:10:00I bought you these magazines.
01:10:02Sit and read for a while, dear.
01:10:04And then we'll see.
01:10:13Ah!
01:10:43Ah!
01:10:44Ah!

01:13:14Let go of me!
01:13:16Ah!
01:13:18Ah!
01:13:19Let go of me!
01:13:20Ah!
01:13:21Ah!
01:13:22You let her alone!
01:13:23Ah!
01:13:26How dare you enter my house, you little slut!
01:13:29Go ahead.
01:13:30Call the police.
01:13:31That man murdered those poor girls.
01:13:33But, how could you go on holding that monster under your protection?
01:13:36Oh, don't you dare say that.
01:13:38My son never harmed anybody, you whore.
01:13:41He understands what whores you are.
01:13:43My son understands what awful creatures you are.
01:13:46You lech. Inside you're as rotten as my son's scarred face.
01:13:49And you try to hide your filth under all these pretty dresses.
01:13:52You stink with perfume. You cover your face with paint.
01:13:55You're the drug addicts, murderers.
01:13:57Leave my son alone, you hear, you filthy whore!
01:14:02Sir, there's no sign of him. Our men are still looking for him.
01:14:05Well, stay at it.
01:14:06I'm sure he must be still hiding in the city.
01:14:08Right.
01:14:14Good Lord, I found him.
01:14:16Yeah? Found who?
01:14:18Garibaldi.
01:14:20He nearly got away.
01:14:22He'd gone and gotten mixed up with a lot of those old cheapies.
01:14:25Think how valuable he is.
01:14:30Homicide squad.
01:14:32No, the commissioner's busy.
01:14:35Yeah, I get the picture. You found the monster.
01:14:38Of course I believe you.
01:14:39Some of my best friends are monsters.
01:14:41Maybe you found one of them.
01:14:43Yeah? That a fact.
01:14:46This is the commissioner.
01:14:51Try the other room.
01:14:54Anything?
01:14:55No.
01:14:57You say you live here alone.
01:15:00All alone, commissioner, and I have for years, ever since poor Mr. Moss passed over.
01:15:04But he lives here. I saw him.
01:15:06She's hidden him somewhere.
01:15:09He's disfigured, burned, and scarred.
01:15:12Oh, horribly scarred.
01:15:14Oh, burnt.
01:15:16You've hidden your son, you liar!
01:15:18All right, that'll be enough, hmm?
01:15:20No, keep on looking. He's got to be here.
01:15:21I said that'll be enough. Now, calm down. Get out of here.
01:15:24Listen to me. I saw him with my own eyes.
01:15:26Take her home.
01:15:27You've got to believe me.
01:15:28I'm sorry this had to happen, Mrs. Moss.
01:15:30None of this was your fault, commissioner.
01:15:32You come calling whenever you like.
01:15:35You won't disturb me.
01:15:37Thank you.
01:15:38Let go of me! Take your hands off me!
01:15:40Shut up. You're not even my type.
01:15:42Still keeping up with this pretense, huh?
01:15:43Let go of me, I said!
01:15:45Go back and play stamp collector, why don't you?
01:15:48And you call yourself a policeman?
01:15:50From what I see, you couldn't find a pig in a poke.
01:15:54But, commissioner, you're not going to put up with it.
01:15:56Don't let it bother you.
01:15:57If we let every crackpot get under our skin, we'll go crazy.
01:16:02Hmm? Ah.
01:16:21Who is it?
01:16:23This is Andrea. Is that you, Jennifer?
01:16:24Yes, it's me. Are you all right?
01:16:26Yes, I'm all right. I've got to see you, but not at your place.
01:16:29It's probably being watched.
01:16:31There's an automobile junkyard just this side of the toll road north.
01:16:33I'll wait for you there. Be careful you're not followed.
01:16:36Yes, darling. I'll start on my way this minute.
01:16:39It's dark out, but I'll...
01:18:01Hmm.
01:18:12Ah!
01:18:29Andrea?
01:18:31Andrea?
01:18:42I'm alone.
01:19:01Ah!
01:19:31Oh!
01:19:32What a bundle of nerves we are today.
01:19:34Am I as frightening as that?
01:19:36Excuse me, Sheila.
01:19:37I thought somebody was following me.
01:19:39We're all as nervous as you are.
01:19:41I would like to get out,
01:19:42but my father insists upon staying on in that haunted house.
01:19:45I've already packed. I'm going tonight.
01:19:47If you find a place that's big enough for two, let me know.
01:19:50I'd move in tonight if I could.
01:19:54That'd be ideal.
01:19:55You know, I'm afraid I can't.
01:19:57That'd be ideal.
01:19:59You know, I've always wanted to share a place with a girlfriend.
01:20:03I'm sure I'd get along with you.
01:20:05Your father would object, wouldn't he?
01:20:08Hmm. I don't think so.
01:20:10Actually, I'm sure he'd be very happy to see me move.
01:20:18But it started by itself.
01:20:20Well, I didn't touch anything.
01:20:21I guess it's someone in the cellar.
01:20:23I hate these damn things.
01:20:28Ah, now it's the lights.
01:20:33Oh, God, now it's broken.
01:20:35Marv, does the alarm work?
01:20:39Oh, it's all right now. We can walk up.
01:20:53It's like the boiler room in a ship, isn't it?
01:20:55This is the first time I've been down here.
01:20:57There should be a flight of stairs.
01:20:59There should be.
01:21:03Come on, scary cat.
01:21:23Who's there?
01:21:47Is anyone here?
01:21:53No.
01:22:11No!
01:22:13No!
01:22:15No!
01:22:17No!
01:22:19No!
01:22:21No!
01:22:26No!
01:22:51No!
01:23:21No!
01:23:51No.
01:24:11Jen.
01:24:14No.
01:24:18Jen.
01:24:21No.
01:24:26Jen, it's me, Andrea.
01:24:32My dear, it's all right. Do you recognize me now?
01:24:34What are you doing here?
01:24:36I saw you at the junkyard.
01:24:38I couldn't come out because the police were there ready to trap me.
01:24:40That's not true.
01:24:42I can see that you're still afraid of me.
01:24:44Go on. I know why you're frightened.
01:24:46Get out.
01:24:48You'd never let me go.
01:24:50Go on.
01:24:54There are the stairs.
01:24:56Get going.
01:24:58You think I'm guilty just like the others.
01:25:06What are you waiting for?
01:25:08Get going.
01:25:10Help me, please.
01:25:16Come on, he's down here.
01:25:18I'm sure of it. He did it.
01:25:20He must have murdered those girls.
01:25:28Now he's killed Sheila.
01:25:30There was no one else here.
01:25:32There's a body here, only I'm not sure whose it is.
01:25:44Commissioner.
01:25:46He's not here, sir.
01:25:48There's a small garage leading out to a back alley.
01:25:50I think he escaped us.
01:25:52Call the morgue, Frankie.
01:25:56David.
01:26:00You can come out now, dear.
01:26:02It's all right.
01:26:08Where are you?
01:26:10Come out now and eat something.
01:26:12You must be hungry.
01:26:14David.
01:26:18Oh, where did he go?
01:26:20Oh, Lord, he's gone.
01:26:22Oh, Lord Jesus, he's gone.
01:26:32Evidently he got in here and hid.
01:26:34It's obvious.
01:26:36Commissioner, how'd Mr. Isaacs react?
01:26:38Not very well.
01:26:40She was his only daughter.
01:26:43So you've made up your mind to move out of the apartment?
01:26:47Yes.
01:26:51After everything that's gone on here,
01:26:53it's impossible for me to stay.
01:26:55Friend taking you in?
01:26:57Yes.
01:26:59Be careful.
01:27:01Barter got away from us and he hasn't been found yet.
01:27:03If you like, I'd be happy to give you a lift.
01:27:07No, thanks.
01:27:09No, thanks.
01:27:13A friend will come for me, a photographer.
01:27:15I think he'll be here any minute.
01:27:19You got men around the place?
01:27:21Two down in the cellar, two in the garage and two in the street.
01:27:23Fine.
01:27:25Are you sure we can't help you?
01:27:29Well,
01:27:31I have some questions to ask you.
01:27:33But you get a good night's sleep.
01:27:35I'll see you tomorrow in my office.
01:27:37Night.
01:28:05Yeah.
01:28:23Yeah, he shoots his wife.
01:28:25Then he goes and strangles his girlfriend.
01:28:29Now keep your eyes open.
01:28:31Wide open, you hear?
01:28:33Good night, Chief.
01:29:03Professor!
01:29:13Professor!
01:29:19Professor!
01:29:21Professor!
01:30:03What a shame. You almost got away.
01:30:08The tape recorder is an amazing machine. It's most useful.
01:30:14And the old lady's disfigured son?
01:30:16Now don't compare me to that idiot.
01:30:19Although he's the one who gave me the idea.
01:30:22I found him one night dressed this way, standing beside Sheila's bed.
01:30:27They corrupted my son.
01:30:29They... standing beside Sheila's bed.
01:30:32They corrupted my daughter. All of you corrupted her.
01:30:35But then you murdered all of those girls.
01:30:37Yes. And now you're going to be murdered the way I murdered the others.
01:30:44No!
01:30:46You killed my Sheila. I thought it was you down there in the cellar.
01:30:51You are going to die. You are going to die.
01:30:59Ah.
01:31:30Romeo is anxious for you.
01:31:32And since you are his Juliet, you'll die beside him.
01:32:00Ah.
01:32:02Ah.
01:32:13Ah.
01:32:17Ah.
01:32:21Ah.
01:32:23Ah.
01:32:26Ah.
01:32:30Ah.
01:32:32Ah.
01:32:34Ah.
01:32:36Ah.
01:32:51Papa.
01:32:56Romeo!
01:32:59Romeo!
01:33:03Jennifer.
01:33:04Andrea, please forgive me.
01:33:07Please.
01:33:10It's all over.
01:33:12The nightmare's over. You're safe now.
01:33:15Yes.
01:33:19You killed my Sheila.
01:33:21I thought it was you down there in the cellar.
01:33:25You are going to die. You are going to die.
01:33:30Hey, boss.
01:33:31Yeah?
01:33:32Look what I got.
01:33:34Some rare issues. Czechoslovakian. They seem to be worth plenty.
01:33:39Renzi.
01:33:40Yeah, what is it?
01:33:41It happens that this is one of those years where there's a shortage of firemen.
01:33:47Would you be interested?
01:33:48I don't know.
01:33:50Do you need brains to be a fireman?
01:33:53Ah.
01:34:00Ah.
01:34:21Oh, it's you.
01:34:22Come on up. I'm alone.
01:34:29Oh.
01:34:30Oh.
01:34:31Oh.
01:34:32Oh.
01:34:33Oh.
01:34:34Oh.
01:34:35Oh.
01:34:36Oh.
01:34:37Oh.

01:34:39Oh.
01:34:40Oh.
