00:08:28It must have been him.
00:08:30It must have been him.
00:08:31I know it was him.
00:08:34I felt something.
00:08:43I hardly knew her.
00:08:44I only spoke to her once.
00:08:48She came over to ask the time.
00:08:52That was yesterday.
00:08:54We'll get him.
00:08:55With your description, we'll get him.
00:08:57Does that matter now?
00:08:58Yeah, it's vital.
00:09:00He isn't going to stop.
00:09:03Are you too tired to come and look at some pictures?
00:09:12I'm sorry.
00:09:15Not your fault.
00:09:17Perhaps he isn't on file.
00:09:20Or perhaps you'll be thinking more clearly in a day or two.
00:09:24Anyway, this helps?
00:09:30Yes.
00:09:33It's like him.
00:09:37And yet it's not like him at all.
00:09:39Yeah.
00:09:40Well, it's something.
00:09:42It's a beginning.
00:09:44You're tired.
00:09:45I'm bushed.
00:09:49Oh, George, can I have a car as soon as possible, please?
00:09:53Yeah, Miss Rogers.
00:09:56Thanks.
00:09:59I'll take you home.
00:10:02Sorry.
00:10:03Sorry.
00:10:12American.
00:10:13What?
00:10:14You're an American.
00:10:15From Indiana.
00:10:16Working in England.
00:10:17Yes, I work for an American company.
00:10:20Actually, I'm English, by marriage.
00:10:24I didn't realize you were married.
00:10:27No, I'm not.
00:10:28I'm sorry.
00:10:31I'm very monosyllabic tonight.
00:10:33Are you really interested?
00:10:34I'm interested in you, yeah.
00:10:37Well, I met this crazy Englishman
00:10:42and I was bowled over by his looks and the way he dressed
00:10:46and I also liked his cute accent.
00:10:49So I married him and it didn't work out
00:10:52and we got a divorce and end of story.
00:10:55Is it?
00:10:56Probably made you wary of all Englishmen.
00:10:59A Laus is a Laus, whatever the nationality.
00:11:02Right on.
00:11:03Come on, I'll take you home.
00:11:16Hello, Mr. Vinton will speak to you now.
00:11:18Putting you through.
00:11:19Yes.
00:11:20Hello.
00:11:24Parker Industries.
00:11:26I'm sorry, the line is engaged.
00:11:28Will you hold?
00:11:29Yes, one moment, please.
00:11:30Ringing for you.
00:11:32No, I'm sorry.
00:11:35It's quite simple, madam.
00:11:36Mr. Dickinson is on the sixth floor.
00:11:38When you come out...
00:11:41Turn left, it's a second on the right.
00:11:43Look, come with me.
00:11:46It's round here.
00:11:48That's it.
00:11:49Now, you've got everything you came with.
00:11:53Sixth floor.
00:11:55First left, second on the right.
00:11:59Here we are.
00:12:15Morning.
00:12:16Morning, thank you.
00:12:30This is quite ridiculous.
00:12:33If they want me to work a 26-hour day,
00:12:35then they'll have to make arrangements to change the time scale.
00:12:37I'm sure we can get through it.
00:12:39Yes, I suppose so, thanks, Anne.
00:12:40I'll call your wife.
00:12:42Good, thank you.
00:12:43By the way, I forgot to tell you.
00:12:45This morning, while you were in a can, someone called you.
00:12:47Who?
00:12:48I've no idea.
00:12:49Penny took it.
00:12:53Well?
00:12:55Well, that man who's been calling you every day for months now.
00:13:00Well, who else but that lovely copper of yours,
00:13:03and he's standing right over...
00:13:05Mark!
00:13:07Yes, well, personally, I wouldn't trust a copper.
00:13:10And you'd be absolutely right, Penny.
00:13:13Oh.
00:13:16Goodbye, Penny.
00:13:19Not here.
00:13:26Not here.
00:13:33Detective Sergeant Tanner.
00:13:35Well, you started it.
00:13:37I don't know what's been happening to me these past few months.
00:13:39It's funny.
00:13:41I've had the same feeling.
00:13:43Oh?
00:13:45Oh?
00:13:47Is that theory or deduction?
00:13:50A little bit of both,
00:13:52and a lot of what my heart tells me.
00:13:54Oh.
00:13:56For a tough old cop, you can be awfully corny.
00:13:59You know that?
00:14:01I can be aggravating, too.
00:14:03Our lunch date?
00:14:06It's cancelled as from now.
00:14:08I'm sorry, darling.
00:14:09Oh, I suppose you have a very good reason.
00:14:11Yeah, I think so.
00:14:12The inspector wants me over there on the double.
00:14:14There's nothing I can do about it. I'm sorry, darling.
00:14:16You...
00:14:17Call you later?
00:14:18You better.
00:14:21Anne.
00:14:22Yes?
00:14:24It would have to be today.
00:14:26You know where I was going to take you?
00:14:28I think so.
00:14:44I think so.
00:15:14I think so.
00:15:44I think so.
00:16:14I think so.
00:16:45Oh.
00:16:50Oh, Anne, who did the lunch go to the copper?
00:16:57This is really devotion to duty.
00:16:59You're 15 minutes early.
00:17:01Well, I have things to do.
00:17:04Yes, haven't we all?
00:17:07The Jamaican thing is looming up.
00:17:10In fact, it may mean another late evening.
00:17:15Anyway, I'll let you know.
00:17:19What?
00:17:20About working late tonight.
00:17:22Oh, yes.
00:17:24Anne, something wrong?
00:17:26Are you feeling OK?
00:17:28No.
00:17:30I'm fine. I'm just fine, really.
00:17:33Good. I'll let you know.
00:17:44OK.
00:18:15PHONE RINGS
00:18:28Hello.
00:18:29Hello. It's Anne Rogers.
00:18:31Oh, hello, Miss Rogers.
00:18:32Is Mark there? I have to talk to him.
00:18:34Well, I'm afraid he's just getting himself involved in some important business.
00:18:38This is business. Could you just please get him for me and tell him it's urgent?
00:18:42I'll tell him. Hold on.
00:18:47But he won't thank me for it.
00:19:06Anne?
00:19:07Mark.
00:19:09Mark, I've seen him.
00:19:11Seen who?
00:19:13The man who killed that girl.
00:19:15I went for a walk during lunch,
00:19:17and I don't know, maybe I was thinking about us,
00:19:19but I was looking in a jewellery shop and I saw him.
00:19:22He was in the jewellery shop and he was working right there in the window
00:19:26and I recognised him and...
00:19:28I think he recognised me.
00:19:30I mean, he stared at me and he followed...
00:19:32Now, hold on, darling. Hold on.
00:19:34It was him. I know it was him.
00:19:36And he followed you back to the office?
00:19:38I think so. Oh, you think so?
00:19:40I'm sure he did.
00:19:42You actually saw him following you?
00:19:44No, I didn't see him.
00:19:46Well...
00:19:47But I know he followed me. I sensed it.
00:19:49Mark, he's probably outside now.
00:19:51He isn't outside. He's inside.
00:19:54He's what?
00:19:56That's why the inspector wanted me.
00:19:58We got a lead, followed it through and we made an arrest just a few minutes ago.
00:20:02You mean the man...
00:20:04The killer. Everything fits, right down to the description you gave us.
00:20:09You arrested him just a moment ago?
00:20:12That's right.
00:20:14Where?
00:20:15Just outside, on the street. Not far from you, in fact.
00:20:19And you're sure it's him?
00:20:21We will be, when we've questioned him.
00:20:24And then sometime tomorrow you'll have to come down and make an identification.
00:20:29Anne, darling, I'm sorry to have to put you through it.
00:20:34But you are our key witness.
00:20:36Oh, no, that's all right.
00:20:38Good. I'm sorry, darling, I have to go now.
00:20:41I'll try and call you later on. Ciao.
00:20:44Bye.
00:20:48Right.
00:20:49You and I are going to have a little chat.
00:21:03About the women you killed.
00:21:34I'll put you through to his secretary.
00:21:37What number do you want it?
00:21:39Sorry, the line is busy. Will you hold? One moment, please.
00:21:42Hello, Parker Industries. Putting you through.
00:21:44Hello?
00:21:55Hello?
00:21:56Hello.

00:23:03All right.
00:23:24Hello, Foyer.
00:23:26Oh, look here, Mother, I've told you before,
00:23:28you shouldn't be at work unless it's important.

00:44:08Anne!
00:44:10Anne!
00:44:37It isn't him.
00:45:02I thought he confessed.
00:45:03Oh, he did. He spilled everything.
00:45:05Every detail, every fact.
00:45:07Well, then, if you've got a cough...
00:45:08Except none of the details are right and none of the facts fits.
00:45:11We've been wasting our time on a nut.
00:45:14I thought that's what we were looking for, a nut.
00:45:16Yeah, but not this nut.
00:45:18What will you do?
00:45:19Book him for public nuisance?
00:45:21Yeah, something like that.
00:45:24But you'll be doing the booking.
00:45:26I'm going home.
00:45:28And not to your home, surely.
00:45:31You should be a detective.
00:45:34Ring her for me, will you?
00:45:36I'm going to clean up.
00:45:45Yes, I'll tell him that.
00:45:47Thank you very much, yes.
00:45:49Good night.
00:45:51She isn't in yet. She's working late.
00:45:53A jeweller.
00:45:54Anne said she saw the man, a jeweller.
00:45:56What's that got to do with it?
00:45:57The effects are here, aren't they?
00:45:58The first girl that was killed.
00:45:59Aren't there effects here? The contents of her purse?
00:46:01The second drawer.
00:46:08Ah, just as I thought.
00:46:11A jeweller's stub for the repair of something.
00:46:14There's no name on it.
00:46:15It could be, but it's a bit of a long shot, isn't it?
00:46:17Hold on, it's not as long as that.
00:46:18Something Anne said to me about the second girl that was killed.
00:46:22She said, I only spoke to her once.
00:46:24She came to ask the time.
00:46:25Now, why should she ask the time?
00:46:26Her watch had stopped.
00:46:27Or it was in for repair.
00:46:29They go to his shop.
00:46:30He takes a fancy to them.
00:46:32He goes back to their home.
00:46:38Did you get Anne?
00:46:39I told you, she's not in yet.
00:46:40She's working late.
00:46:41Oh, maybe they leave the line through.
00:46:51Good evening.
00:46:52Parker Industries.
00:46:53Oh, good evening.
00:46:54Parker Industries.
00:46:55Oh, good evening.
00:46:56May I speak to Miss Anne?
00:46:57This is a recording.
00:46:58The office is closed until tomorrow.
00:47:01Would you care to leave your message starting now?
00:47:06Anyway, she's probably left by now.
00:47:08She doesn't work that late, does she?
00:47:10Not often.
00:47:11She's probably halfway home by now.
00:47:13Well, it's best to ring her landlady.
00:47:14Get her to call as soon as she comes in.
00:47:54Okay.
00:48:54Oh, my God.

00:51:42Well surely she must be back by now. Well, it's already after
00:51:47Yeah, all right old love. I'm sorry as soon as she gets in
00:51:54Any luck
00:51:56Well, there must be a direct line through to Parkers. They've got security there. There has to be a number you can call
00:52:01Ah, they're checking it out. She did say he followed her
00:52:05Imagination, of course, but she did say we're supposing he did follow her back to the office
00:52:19When
00:52:21Hold on
00:52:23There is a direct line to the security man at Parkers
00:52:26He usually rings us he checks in every hour or two
00:52:29But he hasn't run tonight and the phone seems to be out of order and mark
00:52:33Squad car to Parkers right away. If they hurry they might beat sergeant Tanner to it
00:52:37They might and don't forget our master key or we won't get in
