00:00I don't feel good about this, there's a number on the wall for all of us, Angel.
00:20Neil Simon's Murder by Death.
00:24Meanwhile, a short, sinister man who looks exactly like Truman Capote is preparing a
00:32diabolical weekend for the greatest detectives in the world.
00:37Sidney Wang.
00:38Don't I think, Pop, perfect place for a murder.
00:41Conversation like a television set on honeymoon.
00:45Unnecessary.
00:46Dick and Dora Charleston.
00:48Here, would you walk now in the other way, my leg tends to look like a tree in this fog.
00:53Sam Diamond.
00:55I think we picked ourselves a queer bird, Angel.
00:58Anything else?
00:59He has no pinkies.
01:02No pinkies?
01:04Him and Twain has only got eight fingers?
01:06No, no, he's got ten.
01:08He just doesn't have any pinkies.
01:14As we join them, our five clue persons and their faithful companions are trapped in a
01:19mysterious old mansion where a fiendishly ingenious crime is about to take place.
01:25The victim is here at this very table at this very moment.
01:29And so too, ladies and gentlemen, is the murderer.
01:34It's most stupid theory I ever heard.
01:38One of us is a mad killer and not to be trusted.
01:43I hope he knows how to stop that thing.
01:46Returning to the kitchen.
01:48Who are you?
01:49The blind butler encounters the dumb cook.
01:57You must be the new kitchen maid.
01:59Then what has happened to the butler?
02:00The cook.
02:02Where's the cook?
02:03Two minutes to midnight.
02:10Gunshots, monsieur.
02:11Gunshots, pa.
02:12Gunshots, Sam.
02:13Gunshots, Dickie.
02:14I don't like it.
02:15I don't like it one bit.
02:17But do not understand it.
02:18That can only mean one thing.
02:21And I don't know what it is.
02:23It means are these five monumental minds any match for murder by death?
02:33Eileen Brennan, Truman Capote, James Coco, Peter Falk, Alec Guinness, Elsa Lanchester.
02:43The murderer is...
02:45David Niven, Peter Sellers, Maggie Smith, Nancy Walker, Estelle Winwood, and Myron?
03:00Who is the one who done it in the number one who done it?
03:04Neil Simon's new comedy, Murder by Death.
03:09I think we can.
