00:03:15I'm going to have to get you out of here.
00:03:16I'm going to have to get you out of here.
00:03:18I should have known I could trust you this much.
00:03:39Identification papers say Richard Porter from Melbourne, an Australian wool merchant.
00:03:45He's 66 years old...
00:03:47and single. He was fished up out of the Thames this morning. Cause of death? Drowning. Are you sure,
00:03:52doctor? Absolutely. Such accidents happen almost every time we have fog. And what if I say that I
00:03:57don't agree with your findings this time? Excuse me, inspector. I'm just a doctor, not a detective.
00:04:02I simply determine the cause of the death. You know I value your experience greatly.
00:04:06Determining murder is something I leave up to you.
00:04:09Doctor, are these the personal effects of the deceased? Personal effects? In his wallet they
00:04:19found 300 pounds. Thought he was a millionaire. And he wore glasses. What's this here? Just a
00:04:27piece of paper. It was found in his trouser pocket. Strange looking. Been in the water a long time.
00:04:32Looks like a kind of parchment, doesn't it? He's raised coins. Doctor, this is... this is braille,
00:04:41isn't it? Yeah. The death certificate is in order. And the insurance money will have to be paid in
00:04:55full. Just like the case of Mr. Lennox from Cape Town. Accidental death by drowning. And a few
00:05:00months later, Mr. Berengari from Bombay, who fell into the water and was drowned too. You forget
00:05:05about the law of averages, Sir John. These can't be all accidents. Always a foggy night. Always men
00:05:10who wear glasses and can be easily attacked. And always rich men from abroad without a family in
00:05:14England. If you have the slightest shred of evidence, Larry. But you haven't. All you have to go on
00:05:22is suspicion. Now what's that? A clue on the basis of all my suspicions. Sir John, this was wrapped
00:05:31around Porter's body when they found him. It could have happened in the water. Yes, of course, Sir
00:05:34John. I must say, however, I'm prepared to hang myself with it if this isn't a premeditated killing.
00:05:40Now don't jump to conclusions. If we could only find out what the message in braille says. You'll
00:05:45learn that soon, my boy. I've hired a specialist for you. I think that'll help to clear up the
00:05:49matter. He's waiting in your office now. Already? Thank you, Sir John.
00:06:05How do you do? Good morning.
00:06:07I'm Inspector Holt. My name is Nora Warren. You're very different from what I expected. Oh, in what way?
00:06:26Older. I'm flattered. You're a surprise too. In what way? Younger.
00:06:33I understand you're a braille expert. When I was really young, I taught braille to the blind in East Asia.
00:06:39Really? And your parents let you go there alone? I was not careful in my choice of parents. You see,
00:06:45I was forced to support myself. Shall we get to work? What? Yes, sure. Here.
00:06:58This won't be as simple as I thought. Oh, the thing has been floating in the Thames for a while.
00:07:02It's not very clear. I won't be able to decipher all the words. But? The word
00:07:08crime is recognizable. And one other word. Murder. Go on.
00:07:18The blind monster and his master.
00:07:25It certainly looks as though the blind killers of London are at work again.
00:07:29The blind killers of London?
00:07:36There are a band of thieves and killers, blind peddlers who commit crimes in the dead of night,
00:07:41especially in fog when they take advantage of others.
00:07:50Oh. Come in.
00:07:53This is my assistant, Sergeant Harbeck, called Sonny because of his golden disposition.
00:07:58Miss Ward. Pleased to meet you. I'm enchanted. Thank you. Not since the hatchet murderess,
00:08:02Lady Mixed Pickles, was here for questioning have we been honored by such beauty. Well,
00:08:06I must say I'm flattered. He's really quite a harmless case. Were you able to find out anything?
00:08:10Oh, do you knit? And why shouldn't I, Miss Ward? The best psychiatrist recommended to calm his
00:08:15overwrought nerves. Well, in fact, it so happens that I'm knitting the best of the best.
00:08:20Well, in fact, it so happens that I'm knitting two pullovers I need this winter for myself.
00:08:25How lovely. He's quite a fellow. In addition, I knit sweaters for the Salvation Army and the
00:08:29Red Cross. Yes, but not for me. You're not the sweater type, sir. Shall we get down to cases?
00:08:34Very well, sir. I know everything. Well, it's quite a big order. What, for example? For example,
00:08:39Richard Porter had a life insurance policy with the Greenwich Company.
00:08:43Greenwich Company. Never heard of it. It's a small outfit, sir. A kind of family business.
00:08:48It's known in the city where it's very highly thought of. It was run by two brothers,
00:08:51and one of the two of them recently died.
00:09:18Yes, but Mr. Strauss, you should have gone to the...
00:09:21To the bank. He has. I've been waiting for your secretary to leave the office.
00:09:28Ah.
00:09:31Free by trade. Same as ever, Mr. Judd. I'll give you three guesses what I've come for.
00:09:35I only need one. You've come to visit me to talk about the weather report.
00:09:39Very funny. I suppose you still have a strong prejudice against checks.
00:09:44No. What I'm interested in is cash, money to play with.
00:09:49There's no point in your appearing like that. I don't keep any money to play with,
00:09:52in this case. Only in special cases when I have blackmailers to deal with.
00:09:55Well, if unfriendly words could kill, I'd drop dead right on the spot.
00:09:59Unfortunately, you don't. Here. Don't bother counting. It's the right amount.
00:10:04I have confidence in you, Mr. Judd.
00:10:07Sentimental nonsense, my giving you money just like that.
00:10:09It certainly wasn't my fault that your brother went abroad on a holiday with my girlfriend.
00:10:13He was lonely, like most rich men.
00:10:15Now, is that so? Why did he stay abroad for weeks under a false name?
00:10:20It was simply because under that name, he might receive an enormous amount of money from you.
00:10:23He had large debts to pay. He had to find the money to pay them back.
00:10:27Besides, that was long ago, and my brother has been dead for some time.
00:10:29In spite of that, the firm does business in his name.
00:10:32What do you imagine would happen if I spill the whole messy story?
00:10:36That the well-known David Judd, who was buried with all honors and dignity...
00:10:39Why, you swine! You filthy pig!
00:10:44My brother was the best man who ever breathed,
00:10:46and a miserable creature like you casts suspicions on his name? Why, you...
00:10:52Take it easy, Judd.
00:10:56Easy.
00:10:57Can I be of any help to you, sir?
00:11:00Well, Fleabag Fred, they sprung you out of the sanatorium, huh?
00:11:05You want an insurance policy on your diamonds or your pretty face?
00:11:08In both cases, I'm afraid it'd be a bit expensive for a bird like you.
00:11:12Nervous?
00:11:13Yes.
00:11:14I'm Inspector Holder, Scotland Yard. Can I do something for you, sir?
00:11:17No, Inspector. We were having a friendly discussion on the payments on a policy,
00:11:21and we didn't quite see eye to eye.
00:11:23Get straightened out now.
00:11:24In the end, Greenwich Insurance always pays what it owes.
00:11:27Well, I'll be seeing you.
00:11:27If you come around here, I'll give you a policy,
00:11:30but you'll be paying the premium for many years.
00:11:40Thank you, Inspector. You saved my life.
00:11:43He's really one of my clients, but he's difficult to get rid of.
00:11:46Would you please be seated?
00:11:47Thank you.
00:11:48Mr. Judd, I've come about Richard Porter from Melbourne,
00:11:51the man who drowned in the Thames recently.
00:11:53He had a life insurance policy with him.
00:11:55Yes. You know, we had three of these cases lately.
00:11:57If we didn't protect ourselves by reinsuring the big companies,
00:12:00we'd be completely ruined.
00:12:01I hear there are plenty of scandal mongers who claim the firm's virtually wiped out.
00:12:06See, I'm the man who runs the organization ever since my brother died.
00:12:11Your brother David, I believe.
00:12:12Yes.
00:12:13I just can't believe he's gone.
00:12:15It was heart failure.
00:12:16These business worries were too much for David.
00:12:19A cigarette, Inspector?
00:12:26All right, I'm coming.
00:12:40Hey, chum, you a Klond member?
00:12:42No, but I'd like to become one.
00:12:44Got references?
00:12:45References? I know Inspector Holder, Scotland Yard.
00:12:50And I know him personally.
00:13:0210 on the red and this on number 12, 27 and 38.
00:13:06Ha, daddy's flying light tonight.
00:13:07Are you so sure?
00:13:09Put this on the 14.
00:13:1014, no more bets, gentlemen.
00:13:12To what do I owe the honor, Inspector?
00:13:14I have just a few questions.
00:13:16Tell me, why is Stephen Judd giving you money?
00:13:18I'll take the crystal ball if you want to find out you're taking me for a fool.
00:13:21Well...
00:13:22I'm not an information bureau.
00:13:24You don't have a warrant by any chance?
00:13:26No, I don't.
00:13:2717, black.
00:13:29Well, I'll be darned.
00:13:31Not too bad.
00:13:32There goes my money.
00:13:33You've won the pot.
00:13:34I won't hold it against you.
00:13:35That's sweet of you, Fred.
00:13:37But you still haven't answered my question.
00:13:41And why should I?
00:13:42Place your bets, ladies and gentlemen.
00:13:45Do you happen to know anything about the blind killers of London?
00:13:50Place your bets.
00:13:51Do you want me to talk about Blind Jack?
00:13:54Why not?
00:13:58Why wouldn't you talk?
00:14:02Blind Jack only follows orders.
00:14:04I know, I know.
00:14:06But maybe I give the orders.
00:14:11Ha, ha, ha.
00:14:15Place your bets, ladies and gentlemen.
00:14:17What's wrong?
00:14:17You're leaving already?
00:14:19A fine place this is developing into.
00:14:21In the future, I'll have to look over the guests more carefully.
00:14:39Scotland Yard.
00:14:40This is Holt. Give me the file department.
00:14:44Headquarters, Central Files for speaking.
00:14:47Holt, will you gather all information for me on a certain character known as Blind Jack?
00:14:52Blind Jack? Yes. Very well, sir. I'll be right over.
00:15:02I've been waiting for you.
00:15:04Nice of you. May I ask why?
00:15:06I always wait for the winners.
00:15:08Shall we have a little champagne or something?
00:15:11Some other time.
00:15:13All right, just as you say.
00:15:15You might like to try gambling with me.
00:15:18I always bring luck.
00:15:20Wonderful. Why don't you gamble for yourself?
00:15:22I simply can't afford it now. I'm broke. I've spent everything.
00:15:27End of the first chapter.
00:15:29Why don't you pawn this bauble to get out of the red?
00:15:32Nothing doing. I'm not that hard up yet.
00:15:36And besides, it was a gift.
00:15:38Yes, of course. From the Shah of Persia. Congratulations.
00:15:41Nonsense. It was a gentleman who gave it to me.
00:15:44If you even know what that means.
00:15:47He was the finest guy in the whole world when he passed away.
00:15:52Crumbs like you are a lie.
00:15:54Annie, you shouldn't talk to customers like that.
00:15:57Bear in mind that we're a respectable club.
00:15:59What kind of impression will you make on Scotland Yard?
00:16:03I'm so sorry.
00:16:05Pardon me. I guess I don't know a gentleman when I see one, right?
00:16:09Well, we all make mistakes.
00:16:12Here. A little present.
00:16:15It's from Scotland Yard.
00:16:17Thanks.
00:16:23She's rather nice, isn't she?
00:16:26Her name's Fanny Weldon.
00:16:29For many years, she was the mistress of your friend, Fleabag Fred.
00:16:33Until she took off one fine day with a big insurance man from the city.
00:16:37His name was David Judd.
00:16:40And then the poor fellow died.
00:16:43Thank you.
00:16:46Cheers.
00:16:52Thanks. Just the same.
00:16:59Good evening, Inspector.
00:17:01Good evening.
00:17:03Good evening.
00:17:05Good evening.
00:17:07Good evening.
00:17:09Good evening.
00:17:11Good evening.
00:17:13Good evening.
00:17:15Good evening.
00:17:17Good evening.
00:17:19Good evening.
00:17:21Good evening.
00:17:23Good evening.
00:17:25Good evening.
00:17:28Good evening, Inspector.
00:17:30Ah. Good evening, Miss Ward.
00:17:33Glad you could come tonight.
00:17:35We can go now.
00:17:36It's a bit late for going out to supper, Inspector, don't you think?
00:17:40Out to supper?
00:17:42A slight exaggeration, I fear, sir. My weakness, you know.
00:17:47I trust you'll forgive his sense of humor, Nora.
00:17:50We have an extremely important clue. We must follow up at once.
00:17:53We? How do I come into the picture?
00:17:55I have to make a visit, which may require your help professionally.
00:17:58Sonny, read us his record.
00:18:00Very well, sir.
00:18:07Jacob Farrell, also known as Blind Jack, lost his eyesight when he was two years old.
00:18:11Aged about 50, height six foot four, occupation peddler.
00:18:14Has unusually great physical strength, tends towards acts of violence, mentally retarded.
00:18:17Easily subject to bad influences, last known address, 25 Blossom Lane.
00:18:26That's his brother all asleep.
00:18:28Yeah, seems like it.
00:18:56Good evening. May I speak to the director, please?
00:18:59Visitors. Why, the reverend would be overjoyed.
00:19:02You almost never have visitors. Come in, please.
00:19:26Who is it?
00:19:28Visitors, reverend.
00:19:30Visitors at this hour of the night.
00:19:32Excuse us for disturbing you, reverend. My name is Holt.
00:19:34Inspector Holt of Scotland Yard.
00:19:36And this is Miss Ward and my assistant, Sergeant Harvey.
00:19:39Scotland Yard?
00:19:41Yes, reverend. We're looking for a blind peddler.
00:19:43In connection with a murder case.
00:19:45Oh, I hope it's not one of my pensioners.
00:19:47When I assumed her in my office, I thought she was dead.
00:19:50Connection with a murder case.
00:19:52Oh, I hope it's not one of my pensioners.
00:19:54When I assumed direction here, it was known as a hiding place for shady characters.
00:19:58But I believe I have succeeded in my efforts to improve it.
00:20:02I, uh, I'm looking for a certain Jacob Farrell.
00:20:05Known as Blind Jack. Do you know him?
00:20:08I'm sorry to say that name is completely unfamiliar.
00:20:11Our pensioners are all investigated before being admitted.
00:20:15In our records, however, this is the last address we have.
00:20:17Now, I used to know Blind Jack Raymond.
00:20:20Is that you, Norris?
00:20:22Yes, sir.
00:20:23Tell the police everything you know.
00:20:25Well, Blind Jack used to live here before the reverend came.
00:20:31Do you know where he is now?
00:20:34He hasn't been around here for a long while.
00:20:48What is it? What's the matter?
00:20:51Here.
00:20:53A braille message.
00:20:54One of the blind men may have put it in here, sir.
00:20:56Can you decipher it?
00:20:57Yes.
00:20:59The whole town is threatened by the blind killer.
00:21:02And Blind Jack sometimes comes here at night.
00:21:06The reverend knows nothing.
00:21:08One of the blind men has the information we want, but he's afraid to speak.
00:21:11Yes, but which of them? There were more than two dozen.
00:21:13We must find him and speak to him alone when he has nothing to fear.
00:21:16Maybe we might be able to learn something from the janitor.
00:21:19He can see. Perhaps he may help us.
00:21:21Nora.
00:21:22Yes?
00:21:23I have a better idea.
00:21:24You observe what's going on in there.
00:21:26You must see the reverend and pretend you want to be of assistance to him in his work for the blind or something like that.
00:21:30Yes, I understand.
00:21:32Would you do that for me?
00:21:33For you, yes.
00:21:34For Scotland Yard, perhaps.
00:21:36Thank you.
00:21:41There. I'll sign the correspondence afterwards.
00:21:43I'll draw by a bit later tonight.
00:21:45There's a man waiting outside, Mr. Gordon Stewart from Canada.
00:21:48He wishes to speak to you personally about an insurance policy.
00:21:51All right, show him in.
00:21:57Come in, Mr. Stewart.
00:22:00Thank you.
00:22:06How do you do, Mr. Stewart?
00:22:08Won't you sit down, please?
00:22:19Hello?
00:22:21It's me, Edgar.
00:22:23So the deal's off. He's coming back here tonight.
00:22:25His car's parked in the parking place.
00:22:27A white Mercedes with a black top. You can't miss it.
00:22:29License plate DUL845.
00:22:31Mm-hmm. I'll look for it.
00:22:34Mm-hmm.
00:22:36Fleabag got cold feet at the last minute
00:22:38when he found your boss talking with the police inspector from Scotland Yard.
00:22:42It's understandable, isn't it?
00:22:46I'm counting on you, Fanny.
00:22:52Your policy is in order, Mr. Stewart.
00:22:54I note that you have no family.
00:22:57The beneficiaries are all charitable organizations.
00:22:59No, that's something I would like to modify
00:23:02so that my daughter inherits everything.
00:23:04Your daughter?
00:23:05Yes. Please take her name down.
00:23:08Eleanor Finlay.
00:23:10She is my illegitimate daughter.
00:23:13However, I'm straightening everything all out now.
00:23:15I'm seeing a lawyer about it this afternoon.
00:23:17Well, certainly, as you wish, Mr. Stewart.
00:23:19It's often said that rapid decisions are unwise.
00:23:21You know it's a matter of hundreds of thousands of pounds.
00:23:23Yes, it may surprise you, I know,
00:23:25but in spite of that, a few short hours ago,
00:23:28I learned that my daughter is alive.
00:23:30What's the address of Miss Eleanor Finlay?
00:23:32I haven't yet been able to find her.
00:23:34I only know that she's alive.
00:23:37You wouldn't believe the difference it makes.
00:23:40London seems so beautiful all of a sudden,
00:23:43in spite of the bad weather.
00:23:45Yes. Yes, it's very heavy fog.
00:23:48See that you get a taxi right away
00:23:50before the traffic is paralyzed.
00:23:52The raft is blasted fog.
00:23:54What have you got against it, sir?
00:23:56According to statistics, there are as many as 40 days of fog
00:23:58in London in every single year.
00:24:01Will the victim be tonight?
00:24:03At the moment, sir, I think we've no cause for alarm
00:24:05because consulting the list of foreigners in London,
00:24:07I find millionaires are very scarce for some reason.
00:24:10You just ask hotel porters what they get in the way of tips.
00:24:13Come in.
00:24:18We've got company.
00:24:21Don't be shy, Fred. Come in.
00:24:23The poor sinner comes to confession.
00:24:26No, I just came by for a lesson in knitting.
00:24:29I see your nimble fingers, all right, but not for knitting.
00:24:31You belong on television.
00:24:33What's on your mind?
00:24:34Oh, here. This came in this morning's mail.
00:24:36Oh, why don't you sit down?
00:24:38Now, this happens to be my birthday.
00:24:40Congratulations.
00:24:41Yes, on behalf of Scotland Yard.
00:24:43Many thanks.
00:24:44Well, at first I thought it was from one of my old girlfriends.
00:24:46I keep on good terms with all of them.
00:24:48It's a matter of principle with me.
00:24:49Very well.
00:24:50Well, how can I tell you, Inspector?
00:24:52I'm unwrapping the cake and about to taste it.
00:24:54Along comes my dog, grabs the first piece,
00:24:56swallows it, rolls his eyes, falls down and drops stone dead.
00:24:59That's such a beautiful animal.
00:25:01It shouldn't happen to a dog.
00:25:03It's a tragedy.
00:25:04Sonny, take it to the laboratory.
00:25:06Very well, sir.
00:25:12Well, the least you could do is to give me a couple of names
00:25:14so I'll have something to work on.
00:25:15To tell the truth, I don't know where to start, Inspector.
00:25:18Nowadays, it's awful.
00:25:20There's just no more brotherly love.
00:25:22I only knew the louse that was driving that truck.
00:25:24What kind of truck?
00:25:25Someone in a big delivery wagon tried to run me over and nearly killed me.
00:25:29I'll devour the whole of that birthday cake if they weren't trying to kill me.
00:25:32You will help me, Inspector.
00:25:34It's the business of the police.
00:25:35You've got to protect us citizens.
00:25:36Yes, I know, Fred.
00:25:37I know.
00:25:38Even you?
00:25:39Yeah.
00:25:40Give me at least a couple of points I can work from.
00:25:44Could it be blind, Jack?
00:25:47I only know it was a big white delivery truck.
00:25:51Maybe from a laundry.
00:25:52It had a left-hand drive.
00:26:52Is anybody there?
00:27:22Who is it?
00:27:52Who is it?
00:28:23Hello there, Mr. Judd.
00:28:25Who are you?
00:28:27This may surprise you.
00:28:29I was your brother's sweetheart.
00:28:32My brother's dead.
00:28:34I know that.
00:28:36I also know that he was in love with me.
00:28:38Really in love.
00:28:39And believe me, I warned him all about it.
00:28:41I'm not a liar.
00:28:42I'm not a liar.
00:28:43I'm not a liar.
00:28:44I'm not a liar.
00:28:45I'm not a liar.
00:28:46I'm not a liar.
00:28:47I'm not a liar.
00:28:48I'm not a liar.
00:28:49I'm not a liar.
00:28:50I'm not a liar.
00:28:51And believe me, I warned him longer than you.
00:28:53Very nice of you, I'm sure.
00:28:56Well, may I ask what you've come to me for?
00:28:59Please, my friend's received quite a lot of cash from you.
00:29:03Yes.
00:29:04Well, he won't be getting any more.
00:29:07Won't you take me for a drive?
00:29:15How do you do, Miss Nora?
00:29:17Good evening.
00:29:19Is that you, Lou?
00:29:20No, Reverend, it's me.
00:29:21Oh, Miss Ward.
00:29:23How nice of you to visit me.
00:29:25I can hardly tell you how happy it made me to get your call.
00:29:30It wasn't so easy to find the place in that heavy fog.
00:29:33Yes, yes.
00:29:34It's absolutely dreadful tonight.
00:29:36It makes me appreciate it so much the more that you came.
00:29:39Good evening.
00:29:42My friend, Miss Ward's been kind enough to visit us in the park
00:29:47and ask if she may come more often to see us in the future.
00:29:50Isn't that kind of her?
00:29:52I'm so glad you're just in time for our music hour.
00:29:55Beethoven, the fifth.
00:29:58Conducted by Sir Thomas Beecham.
00:30:01And now, with your permission, we'll start.
00:30:03We're accustomed to punctuality, and they are always.
00:30:06There's a man missing, isn't there?
00:30:08How very observant you are, Miss Ward.
00:30:10I know who it is.
00:30:11The little man with the scarface who said he knew blind Jack.
00:30:14She must mean Lou.
00:30:15Lou Norris.
00:30:18That's her.
00:30:20He has the kind of face one doesn't easily forget.
00:30:23Lou did not show up for supper this evening.
00:30:25When you rang, I thought the tea was at the door.
00:30:28But now, have a seat, please.
00:30:30Can I help you, Ralph?
00:30:47Thank you.
00:31:01No, Jack, don't do it.
00:31:03I can't stand it anymore.
00:31:05I can't bear it.
00:31:07At night I lie awake and can't sleep.
00:31:09I've never seen your face,
00:31:11but when I have nightmares,
00:31:13then I see you staring at me, Jack.
00:31:15I'm not going to help anymore.
00:31:17I'll put a stop to all this.
00:31:20I... I'll go to the police.
00:31:22Yes.
00:31:25Once you join up with me, Val, you stay.
00:31:45♪
00:32:14♪
00:32:25♪
00:32:27♪
00:32:47♪
00:33:07♪
00:33:34♪
00:34:01What kind of a neighborhood is this?
00:34:03I don't know myself. I'm lost.
00:34:06Now, what do you know about my brother?
00:34:08Uh...
00:34:09At the time, when we were in Scotland,
00:34:11he was living under a false name.
00:34:13Did you know about it?
00:34:14He called himself Schultz.
00:34:15But when a man's having a romantic adventure,
00:34:18he can change his name.
00:34:20If, in your opinion, I was only a romantic adventure,
00:34:22you're way off the track.
00:34:24Then, one sunny day,
00:34:25the postman came with a very large money order,
00:34:27an enormous sum for a certain Mr. John Schultz.
00:34:30And it was all paid to David immediately,
00:34:32on the basis of his false identification.
00:34:36Fleabright Fred knows about it,
00:34:38and that's why you're paying him now, isn't it?
00:34:45So you're blackmailing me.
00:34:49Now, get out.
00:34:50What? We're not here.
00:34:52You can walk home.
00:34:53I'm not responsible for my brother's mistakes.
00:34:56Um...
00:34:57What would you say if I had a little article
00:34:59written about your company in a scandal column?
00:35:04All right.
00:35:06I fail to understand how your mind works.
00:35:08My brother was good to you,
00:35:10so if I can be of help, please.
00:35:14Now, will you tell me who tipped you off?
00:35:16Of course not.
00:35:18Fleabright Fred?
00:35:19Certainly not.
00:35:20Not Fleabright Fred.
00:35:21Who was it?
00:35:22Someone you wouldn't even think of suspecting.
00:35:25Ha-ha-ha.
00:35:55I'm sorry.
00:35:56I'm sorry.

00:38:45I'm sorry.
00:38:46I'm sorry.
00:38:47I'm sorry.
00:38:48I'm sorry.
00:38:49Hello.
00:38:50You know me all of a sudden.
00:38:51Say, listen.
00:38:52Don't tell Mr. Judd about the prison record.
00:38:54Will you, Inspector Holt?
00:38:55No.
00:38:56I've no reason to.
00:38:57We have nothing against you, only against Miss Weldon.
00:38:59Mr. Judd has called on us.
00:39:01Like me.
00:39:11It looks as if she isn't in now.
00:39:14Or else she's hard to wake up.
00:39:19The door wasn't even locked.
00:39:25The last visitor seems to have left in a great hurry.
00:39:49The door was locked.
00:40:02Fanny.
00:40:20It's most peculiar, sir, if I may take the liberty of pointing out.
00:40:22Nothing was removed except a certain ring.
00:40:25A gift she got from David John.
00:40:27Come in.
00:40:29Good morning, gentlemen.
00:40:30Good morning, Inspector.
00:40:31Sir.
00:40:32Barry.
00:40:34This morning they fished another body up from the Thames.
00:40:36Good gracious.
00:40:38And this isn't even the fishing season, is it, Inspector?
00:40:42Official version, another accident.
00:40:45Far as the same as usual, an elderly man.
00:40:48A millionaire from Canada.
00:40:50He wore glasses.
00:40:53In my theory, Chief Inspector...
00:40:54Well, Larry, I don't believe it was an accident myself.
00:40:57Here.
00:40:59And once again, we have a piece of rope which was found tied around the victim's leg.
00:41:09And now I know why.
00:41:12A weight must have been fastened, something, I don't know what it was,
00:41:15to make the body sink.
00:41:16But, Larry, then the body wouldn't have risen to the surface.
00:41:20Perhaps our murderer wanted the body to appear.
00:41:23That's it, of course.
00:41:25He wanted the body to be found to make it look like an accident.
00:41:28Since only if it was proved could the insurance money be collected.
00:41:33It must have been something...
00:41:35that dissolves in water.
00:41:39Sir!
00:41:41Sugar.
00:41:50Or salt.
00:41:59Oh, no, Inspector.
00:42:00I'm afraid I don't see how Mr. Stewart went out of the house.
00:42:03I was quite convinced he'd gone to bed last night.
00:42:06And you say the door was locked?
00:42:08Just a little crack.
00:42:09You're not trying to suggest, Inspector, that Mr. Stewart jumped over the balcony, are you?
00:42:12It doesn't seem likely.
00:42:14May I help you?
00:42:15Oh, please.
00:42:17Did it burn out?
00:42:18Yes. It was new less than two weeks ago.
00:42:21The floor was covered with bits of glass this morning.
00:42:23Look, Mrs. Brooks.
00:42:24When a bulb burns out, it's as if it doesn't burn any longer.
00:42:27But it usually doesn't break into a thousand pieces, now does it?
00:42:29No, no, no. This time someone has deliberately smashed it.
00:42:32Mrs. Brooks, were you aware that Mr. Stewart was here?
00:42:36Mrs. Brooks, were you aware that Mr. Stewart was a rich man?
00:42:38No, I must say, I never thought so.
00:42:41Oh, but he was a fine man, he was.
00:42:42I can size him up right away.
00:42:44I'm sure you can, Mrs. Brooks.
00:42:46But tell me, can you think of any good reason why he especially wanted to live at your house?
00:42:49Yes. Because he'd been here once before.
00:42:52When?
00:42:53Twenty-two years ago, when he was in London on a visit.
00:42:56He said to me very often that it was in this very room
00:42:59that the loveliest hours of his life had been spent.
00:43:01That sounds very romantic.
00:43:03Mrs. Brooks, can you give us any information concerning Mr. Stewart's habits or his private life?
00:43:07Who came to visit? Were there any phone calls?
00:43:09Please, Inspector, don't spy on my houseguest, goodness.
00:43:11While he was here, he didn't receive anybody.
00:43:15But there was a taxi that called her every morning.
00:43:16He'd climb in and drive away in it.
00:43:18And where did he go, Mrs. Brooks?
00:43:19Where? Oh, I wouldn't know that.
00:43:26Here. I used to drive the gentleman you described to this place almost every day.
00:43:30To the cemetery?
00:43:30Yes, sir, that's right.
00:43:31There, over there, where you see those men is where he used to go.
00:43:47Good morning, gentlemen.
00:43:49Good morning.
00:43:50Are you the stone cutter?
00:43:51Yes.
00:43:52Tastes good?
00:43:53Yes.
00:43:54That's really a lovely stone you're erecting.
00:43:57But a trifle late for the deceased to appreciate the gesture.
00:44:00Yes, well, better late than never, they say.
00:44:02Tell me, who gave you the commission to set up that stone?
00:44:06An elderly gent. I don't know him.
00:44:08They spoke about a youthful romance.
00:44:11Did he give his name by chance?
00:44:12Yes, of course. He gave me a check to pay for it.
00:44:14His name's Stewart.
00:44:16Gordon Stewart?
00:44:17That's right.
00:44:18That's quite a coincidence.
00:44:19What do you mean, a coincidence?
00:44:20Well, less than an hour ago, there was another chap here who asked the same question.
00:44:25What did he look like?
00:44:27Well, now that's difficult to say.
00:44:29Thin?
00:44:30Like you. A little bit older, perhaps.
00:44:32I'd say he was about 40 or so.
00:44:34How was he dressed?
00:44:35A raincoat about like yours, but no hat.
00:44:38Any speeches?
00:44:40Well, uh...
00:44:42Well?
00:44:43I don't remember. You see, he was wearing a pair of those dark glasses and I couldn't see his face.
00:44:48I see. Well, thank you.
00:44:49Don't mention it. Bye now.
00:44:51Goodbye, sir.
00:44:52So, farewell, Michelangelo.
00:44:55Thank you.
00:45:00Try to think about this logically, Sonny.
00:45:03More than 20 years ago, Mr. Gordon Stewart and a certain Miss Finlay...
00:45:06...had a glorious interlude which gave life meaning.
00:45:09Yes, and the result of this interlude...
00:45:10A daughter, Louisa. Alas, the poor baby died at birth, sir.
00:45:13That's right. And if you're able to enlighten me as to who the man with the dark glasses was,
00:45:17you're even cleverer than you think you are.
00:45:22Thirteen.
00:45:23Last one.
00:45:26Thirteen.
00:45:27Last one.
00:45:31Ladies and gentlemen, place your bets.
00:45:35Well, Mr. Strauss,
00:45:38you don't seem to be doing very well.
00:45:42You mind your own business.
00:45:44With the peanuts you make working for Judd, you just cannot keep this up.
00:45:48You know anything better?
00:45:51No.
00:45:52You have the key, don't you?
00:45:55The key? What key is that?
00:45:57Why, to Fanny's place.
00:46:00I have no idea what you're getting at.
00:46:02The police are looking for it every place.
00:46:04And her last guest must have had a key to her apartment.
00:46:07I'm afraid she never gave one to me.
00:46:12Wait a second.
00:46:14Once she had a bit too much to drink.
00:46:17She was telling wild stories and talking about someone dead,
00:46:20about a man who died.
00:46:23And about a key.
00:46:25If only I knew who she was talking about.
00:46:28You mean you don't?
00:46:30You haven't been working for the company long enough.
00:46:32Use your head to think.
00:46:34You're not too smart, are you?
00:46:37David Judd.
00:46:41Yes, of course, it's also obvious.
00:46:44His brother could have the key.
00:46:47Well, this is our big chance.
00:46:50This is our big chance.
00:46:52We should take advantage of it.
00:46:54So you double-crossed Judd.
00:47:01Now, place your bets. We'll see how you do.
00:47:05Don't forget, though.
00:47:07Self-preservation is the first law of survival.
00:47:10Place your bets.
00:47:12All you've got to do now is win for these troughs.
00:47:20Ladies and gentlemen, place your bets.
00:47:22Place your bets.
00:47:24Your bets, please.
00:47:28No more bets.
00:47:34Who's speaking?
00:47:36Flea by Fred.
00:47:38I've said repeatedly I don't want to be bothered.
00:47:40Come on, why are you so unpleasant with me, Mr. Judd?
00:47:43I have a little information for you.
00:47:47The police are looking for the man who has the key to Fanny Weldon's apartment.
00:47:52You can take your choice.
00:47:54Whether you want to be bothered by me or by the homicide squad.
00:47:59I don't want to discuss this subject on the phone, my friend.
00:48:02What if we were to sit down together and talk over the matter?
00:48:05Let's say, in an hour at my office?
00:48:08How's that?
00:48:10Good. I'll wait for you.
00:48:17What'd you bring us here for?
00:48:19Well, you asked me to take you to all of the places where the old gentleman went.
00:48:22Yeah, sure, but in this section?
00:48:24I was surprised myself, sir.
00:48:26But that's where he went.
00:48:28Well, sir, I think we should follow suit.
00:48:30You don't want to be bothered by me, sir.
00:48:32You'll have to do something about it.
00:48:34I'll have to find a way.
00:48:37All right, I'll see you later.
00:48:38Sure thing.
00:48:40Wait, how did you know I was here?
00:48:42I was wandering around.
00:48:44So you didn't get lost?
00:48:46I didn't.
00:48:48You didn't?
00:48:50How'd you find out?
00:48:53Well, I was...
00:48:55Was I?
00:48:57Yes, I was.
00:48:59Inspector Holt.
00:49:01Miss Nora.
00:49:02What brings you here?
00:49:03Were you looking for me?
00:49:04No, I'm quite surprised to find you here.
00:49:07I wanted to speak to the owner.
00:49:09My aunt is out at the moment.
00:49:10Son was here this morning and induced her to leave under false pretenses.
00:49:13But please come in, won't you?
00:49:16Thank you.
00:49:17Does your aunt live here?
00:49:19She isn't really my aunt, you know.
00:49:21I'm a foundling and she brought me up.
00:49:24Since I've been on my own, I only come here once in a while.
00:49:27And today, when I had come especially to visit her...
00:49:30Yes?
00:49:31Oh, I'm just so worried about her.
00:49:33Please, tell us what happened this morning.
00:49:35Well, a man in a car came by this morning and brought Aunt Ella the news that I'd been hurt
00:49:40and was in the hospital critically ill.
00:49:42She was so upset that she left with him at once.
00:49:45Since then, she hasn't been seen.
00:49:48Did anybody see the car?
00:49:50Yes, Miss Brown works here for my aunt.
00:49:52So tell me, gorgeous, what kind of a vehicle did they take your mistress away in?
00:49:55It was a delivery truck.
00:49:56And the man, what did the man look like who bamboozled her?
00:49:59Thin. He wore a light raincoat.
00:50:01What did his face look like?
00:50:02Well, it's hard for me to tell you.
00:50:04He was wearing a pair of dark glasses.
00:50:07The same story all over.
00:50:09Beg your pardon, you're dead right, sir.
00:50:10Nora.
00:50:11Yes?
00:50:12Did you ever hear your aunt mention a man called Gordon Stewart?
00:50:14Gordon Stewart?
00:50:15Yes.
00:50:16No, I don't think so. Who is he?
00:50:17He was a rich Canadian who drowned in the Thames last night
00:50:20and this is one of the last places we know he visited before he died.
00:50:23That's why we've come here today.
00:50:25Well.
00:50:27Sonny.
00:50:28Yes, sir?
00:50:29Would you please see to it that Miss Ward gets safely home?
00:50:32With pleasure, sir.
00:50:33With great pleasure.
00:50:35There are no signs of violence.
00:50:37The length of time the body was in the water and the condition of the lungs
00:50:40leads us to conclude that the cause of death was accidental.
00:50:43Medically speaking.
00:50:44Bert.
00:50:46Yes, but on the basis of previous cases, it looks to me like deliberate murder.
00:50:50That's what we call you for, Larry.
00:50:55Here.
00:50:57This was found inside his passport.
00:51:02Surprise, it's Braille.
00:51:03That's right.
00:51:05Who'd benefit from the death of a man like that?
00:51:08Any suspicions?
00:51:11Gordon Stewart had only a illegitimate daughter.
00:51:17And she's been dead for 22 years.
00:51:20Thank you, Sonny.
00:51:21It was sweet of you.
00:51:22Don't mention it.
00:51:23Such a delightful job doesn't come my way every day.
00:51:25I would like to ask you for a cup of tea.
00:51:27Oh, what fun.
00:51:28But with all the excitement, I prefer to be alone a while.
00:51:31And I'm sure you've got lots of things you want to do.
00:51:34Who would want to invite me for tea at this hour?
00:51:37Why don't you get married, Sonny?
00:51:38I don't seem to get around to it somehow.
00:51:40I'm seldom at home and Scotland Yard doesn't have a justice of the peace.
00:51:43And Larry?
00:51:45He's had lots of girlfriends.
00:51:47He's had lots of girlfriends, some serious love affairs,
00:51:50but he never seems to pop the question.
00:51:52Oh, and good night, Sonny.
00:51:53Good night, Miss Ward.
00:51:56Haven't you forgotten something?
00:51:58Oh, excuse me.
00:51:59I nearly forgot all about it.
00:52:01Would you please hold my hat for me?
00:52:02Thank you very much.
00:52:03What are you looking for?
00:52:04Where's the key?
00:52:06Now, where could it be hiding?
00:52:10So foolish of me.
00:52:13I guess I'm just absent-minded.
00:52:15Now, here we are.
00:52:16I beg your pardon.
00:52:17It's just my clumsiness.
00:52:18I hope you'll be good enough to forgive me.
00:52:21Once more, good night, Miss Ward.
00:52:23Good night.
00:52:24Good night.
00:52:27Scotland Yard.
00:52:46Is anybody there?
00:53:16No.
00:53:31No!
00:53:32No!
00:53:33No!
00:53:34No!
00:53:43Nora!
00:53:44What happened?
00:53:45Oh, Larry.
00:53:46It was the blind monster.
00:54:07Get away.
00:54:08White delivery wagon.
00:54:10Couldn't read the license number, but it was probably false.
00:54:15Oh.
00:54:24A broken light bulb.
00:54:30Well, Nora.
00:54:32We can only learn where Blind Jack's hiding place is.
00:54:36We know where your aunt is.
00:54:38First Aunt Ella, now it's me.
00:54:40My God, Larry.
00:54:41I don't know what would have happened if you hadn't come.
00:54:44But how did you know?
00:54:46Oh.
00:54:47Here.
00:54:48This bit of paper saved your life, Nora.
00:54:50You should appreciate it.
00:54:51That's why I'm here.
00:54:52I must find out what the message says.
00:54:54This is no clearer than the first one.
00:54:57But here, here.
00:54:58I can read this one.
00:54:59What does it say?
00:55:00It was no accident.
00:55:02This was a murder.
00:55:04Are you sure?
00:55:06Yes.
00:55:07That's just what's written there.
00:55:09Nora, have you any idea which of the blind pensioners could have written this?
00:55:13Seems to me there's only one.
00:55:15The little man with the scarf.
00:55:17He's called Lou.
00:55:18Lou Norris.
00:55:39Lou.
00:55:41Lou.
00:56:08Oh, my God.
00:56:38Oh, my God.
00:57:08Please wait outside, Sonny.
00:57:17If I need you for anything, I'll call you.
00:57:19Very well, sir.
00:57:20Evening, Inspector.
00:57:21Good evening, Jones.
00:57:22What's new?
00:57:23Nothing special, sir.
00:57:24The chap hasn't even shown up.
00:57:25Well, he's bound to show up sooner or later.
00:57:26Let's hope so anyway.
00:57:27Now, Mr. Jones, how is everything with the wife and children?
00:57:29Thank you.
00:57:30Everything is just fine, sir.
00:57:31Good evening, Miss Nora.
00:57:35Good evening.
00:57:36Good evening.
00:57:37Shall I tell the Reverend you're here?
00:57:38Thank you.
00:57:39I know the way.
00:57:40And tell me, is there any other entrance to this house?
00:57:42No, sir.
00:57:43This is the only one.
00:57:53Reverend Dearborn.
00:57:54Yes?
00:57:55It's me, Nora Warren.
00:57:57Oh.
00:57:58Welcome, Miss Ward.
00:58:00Good evening, Reverend.
00:58:01Forgive us for coming so late, but I must speak with one of your pensioners, Lou.
00:58:05Oh, Lou.
00:58:06Not Lou Norris?
00:58:07Yes.
00:58:08The little man with the scarf thing.
00:58:09Oh.
00:58:10Now, that's most unfortunate.
00:58:11Why?
00:58:12Is he sick?
00:58:13I don't know.
00:58:14It's very strange.
00:58:15He hasn't been home for days.
00:58:16And this morning, I replaced him with someone else.
00:58:19I hope nothing's happened to Lou.
00:58:22That's something I'll find out immediately.
00:58:24Do you mind if I telephone?
00:58:25Oh, go ahead.
00:58:26Please.
00:58:27Thank you.
00:58:34Give me the board.
00:58:40Hello, Doctor.
00:58:41This is Holt.
00:58:42Tell me, have they brought in the body of a man of about 5'5",
00:58:46with a clearly visible scar on his left cheek?
00:58:49Yes, they brought him in this morning.
00:58:51I must say, that's a very accurate description.
00:58:53His name is Lou Norris.
00:58:54Addressed 25 Blossom Lane, the home for the blind.
00:58:57What's the cause of death?
00:58:59He was run over by a hit-and-run driver.
00:59:00We'll be able to trace the guy.
00:59:02He left some clues.
00:59:03Chips of paint from the vehicle were found all over the coat of the victim.
00:59:08White.
00:59:09How do I know?
00:59:10I know even more, Doctor.
00:59:12For example, it was no accident.
00:59:14It was murder.
00:59:28Too late again.
00:59:31But this is simply dreadful.
00:59:33What you just said, Inspector.
00:59:53I wouldn't want to be alone there at midnight, would you?
00:59:56It's decidedly unpleasant here.
00:59:58Come along, Mr. Jones.
01:00:10Good night.
01:00:11Good night, Miss Norris.
01:00:12Good night.
01:00:13Oh, there was something I wanted to ask you.
01:00:15Can you write in Braille?
01:00:16No.
01:00:17Why do you ask?
01:00:18Oh.
01:00:20I just wondered.
01:00:21Good night.
01:00:22Good night.
01:00:23Good night.
01:00:24Sir?
01:00:25Goodbye, Mr. Jones.
01:00:26Goodbye.
01:00:28Good day, Mr. Jones.
01:00:29Good day.
01:00:30Excuse me.
01:00:32Good day, Mr. Jones.
01:00:50Good day.
01:00:52Excuse me.
01:01:01Good day, Mr. Judd.
01:01:02My name is Blake.
01:01:03Matthew Blake.
01:01:04Pardon.
01:01:05Your secretary, Mr. Strauss, owes my club considerable sums of money for gambling debts.
01:01:09And he said you would pay all the necessary cash.
01:01:12That is sheer foolishness.
01:01:13Who does he think I am?
01:01:14Strauss also made allusions to an affair about a key to Fanny Weldon's apartment.
01:01:20I don't know what you're referring to.
01:01:22However, if you want to pursue the issue, tell my friend Inspector Holt of Scotland Yard.
01:01:28Hello, Inspector.
01:01:30Hello there, Mr. Judd.
01:01:31I was waiting for you.
01:01:33Oh, sorry.
01:01:34I'm a little late.
01:01:35Inspector.
01:01:42That was Matthew Blake.
01:01:43What?
01:01:44Was he the one who delayed you?
01:01:46But please, Inspector, I don't know him.
01:01:47He's a complete stranger to me.
01:01:50He just came out the other day.
01:01:52I must say, I don't care for that weird look in his eyes.
01:01:55No wonder his left eye is a glass eye.
01:01:57He lost an eye in a knife battle when he was a prisoner at Dartmouth.
01:02:00How dreadful.
01:02:06Well now.
01:02:07Secretary.
01:02:08Mr. Strauss no longer works for me.
01:02:10I had to let him go finally.
01:02:14Can I take your coat, Inspector?
01:02:15Oh, thank you.
01:02:17Please be seated.
01:02:22Now then.
01:02:24I suppose you've come about Fleabight Fred's unfortunate accident.
01:02:27Unfortunate, yes, but not an accident.
01:02:29I'm convinced it's murder.
01:02:31Oh, Fleabight Fred had many enemies.
01:02:32Yes, including you, Mr. Judd.
01:02:34However, you have an airtight alibi.
01:02:37I'd just come in from the street when it happened.
01:02:39I presume I'm not a suspect, Inspector.
01:02:42In any event, I'm visiting you on another case, Mr. Judd.
01:02:45We know that Gordon Stewart drowned in the Thames the other night.
01:02:48He was insured by your company.
01:02:50These drownings in the Thames are my ruin.
01:02:53The big insurance companies now refuse to reinsure for us.
01:02:57You're the first person I've told, Inspector.
01:02:59I'm bankrupt.
01:03:01I've got to dissolve the company.
01:03:02Oh, I wouldn't do that if I were you, Mr. Judd.
01:03:04As long as that Stewart policy hasn't been paid yet.
01:03:07What do you mean?
01:03:08Of course it's been paid.
01:03:09What?
01:03:10The governor's verdict was final.
01:03:11An accident.
01:03:12I made an investigation, as you might expect.
01:03:14But I'm in no position to block the payment.
01:03:16And the heiress received a check this morning.
01:03:18The heiress?
01:03:19Yes.
01:03:20A certain Miss Eleanor Finley.
01:03:22The deceased's illegitimate daughter.
01:03:24Now, there could be no question he had her signature certified by a notary before he died.
01:03:27Here.
01:03:28It's completely incomprehensible.
01:03:30Stewart's daughter was called Louisa.
01:03:31She's been dead for 22 years.
01:03:33She was living when she came here this morning.
01:03:35And collected a bank drop for the money.
01:03:36Here.
01:03:37See for yourself.
01:03:38The receipt with her signature and her address.
01:03:44Number 12 Hartford Avenue.
01:03:48Now, this is really funny, Mr. Judd.
01:03:50How so?
01:03:52Number 12 Hartford Avenue is my residence.
01:03:55And I'm the only occupant.
01:03:58Chief, I had nothing to do with it.
01:04:00It certainly wasn't my fault.
01:04:01In any case, you let the girl get away twice.
01:04:04In the past, you didn't make excuses.
01:04:06You took orders and carried them out.
01:04:08And will again in the future, too.
01:04:11You can't mean it, Chief.
01:04:12You can't.
01:04:13I'm not Lou.
01:04:14Chief, I'm not a squealer.
01:04:15It's Scotland Yard.
01:04:16Put on the pressure.
01:04:17You'll talk, all right?
01:04:18I'm not a squealer.
01:04:19I'm not Lou.
01:04:20I'm not Lou.
01:04:21I'm not Lou.
01:04:22I'm not Lou.
01:04:23I'm not Lou.
01:04:24I'm not Lou.
01:04:25I'm not Lou.
01:04:26You'll talk, all right?
01:04:27No, Chief.
01:04:28They could tear my tongue out, and I swear,
01:04:30before they get anything out of me,
01:04:32I would die first.
01:04:34You'll die anyway.
01:04:36No, Chief.
01:04:37No.
01:04:38Don't kill me.
01:04:39Don't kill me.
01:04:56Don't kill me.
01:04:57Don't kill me.
01:04:58Don't kill me.
01:04:59Don't kill me.
01:05:00Don't kill me.
01:05:01Don't kill me.
01:05:02Don't kill me.
01:05:03Don't kill me.
01:05:04Don't kill me.
01:05:05Don't kill me.
01:05:06Don't kill me.
01:05:07Don't kill me.
01:05:08Don't kill me.
01:05:09Don't kill me.
01:05:10Don't kill me.
01:05:11Don't kill me.
01:05:12Don't kill me.
01:05:13Don't kill me.
01:05:14Don't kill me.
01:05:15Don't kill me.
01:05:16Don't kill me.
01:05:17Don't kill me.
01:05:18Don't kill me.
01:05:19Don't kill me.
01:05:20Don't kill me.
01:05:21Don't kill me.
01:05:22Don't kill me.
01:05:23Don't kill me.
01:05:24Don't kill me.
01:05:25Don't kill me.
01:05:26Don't kill me.
01:05:44Am I dreaming, or is it really you, Miss Snor?
01:05:47Come in.
01:05:48It wasn't so simple to find you, Mr. White.
01:05:52I suppose you're still in nursing.
01:05:54I'll never be able to forget how you took care of me in the hospital in the weeks after I lost my eye.
01:05:59It makes me so happy to see you go.
01:06:01You were always so good to me, Miss Conner.
01:06:02When you were with me, I wasn't just another cognate.
01:06:06Remember what you said to me, Matt, when you left the penitentiary?
01:06:09I sure do, and it still goes today.
01:06:11I'd do anything in the world for you.
01:06:13Sit down. Anything at all.
01:06:15And I've got plenty of connections.
01:06:17Now, what can I do for you?
01:06:19Tell me where to find the hiding place of Blind Jack.
01:06:25But, Miss Nora...
01:06:26I must find him.
01:06:28But this man is wanted by all of Scotland Yard, and now you want to...
01:06:31They're not looking for him anymore.
01:06:33They finally found him.
01:06:35Blind Jack? Where?
01:06:37They found him in a garbage dump, Matt.
01:06:39He was shot.
01:06:44If I was you, I'd steer clear of the whole business.
01:06:49I've looked up all the laundries in London, sir,
01:06:51and this is the longest laundry list I've ever seen.
01:06:53It'll all come out in the wash, I guess.
01:06:55That breaks my heart, having to go through all that.
01:06:57Anything concrete?
01:06:58Zero point nothing.
01:07:00That's what I thought.
01:07:01Any laundry actually in business would automatically be eliminated,
01:07:04unless it is a front.
01:07:06And the delivery wagon?
01:07:07Practically all alike, sir. White.
01:07:08Yeah, white, white, like a fresh sheet of paper.
01:07:10We're right back where we started.
01:07:12But if we ever get out of this mess,
01:07:15it'll mean a promotion for both of us.
01:07:17Oh, bully, sir. Have you plans for Miss Nora's future?
01:07:19What did you just say, sonny?
01:07:21Nothing, sir.
01:07:22I was merely thinking out loud.
01:07:24And what were you thinking?
01:07:26Well, when you're a chief inspector, you can think a bit, too, sir.
01:07:30Marriage, you mean.
01:07:33You'd better get back to your knitting.
01:07:34Rompers about this size, and use nice, soft wool.
01:07:38Gladly, sir.
01:07:39Just one thing, sir.
01:07:40Shall I make it blue, or else something in the rose shade?
01:07:44Why don't you knit one of each, hmm?
01:07:47Sir!
01:07:49Ha ha ha ha!
01:07:58Mrs. Holt?
01:07:59What?
01:08:01Miss Ford!
01:08:03I'm enchanted because you telephone.
01:08:08Yes, I'll pass you to him at once.
01:08:14Hello, Nora.
01:08:15What?
01:08:19What did you say?
01:08:22Ella Ward?
01:08:45Oh!
01:08:56Who is it?
01:08:59Who is there?
01:09:01Please, please, let me out of here!
01:09:08Good heavens, what are you trying to do?
01:09:11Oh, help!
01:09:13No!
01:09:15Help!
01:09:20No! No!
01:09:23Help!
01:09:35Help! Help!
01:09:40Help!
01:09:42Help!
01:09:45Help!
01:10:02Help!
01:10:04Help!
01:10:06Help!
01:10:08Don't worry, we'll get you out.
01:10:11Help!
01:10:13Get into the corner, quickly!
01:10:15Help!
01:10:40Come on, this way.
01:10:44Help!
01:10:55Now, tell me something, will you, Mrs. Ward?
01:10:57Who is Nora, and who were her parents?
01:11:01She's an illegitimate child, and her mother was called Finley.
01:11:05Catherine Finley.
01:11:07Finley?
01:11:09But that can't be.
01:11:11She died in childbirth with a child whose name was Rita.
01:11:13Both are buried in the Beverly Manor Cemetery.
01:11:15Yes.
01:11:16I was present at the funeral, that was over 22 years ago.
01:11:20However, Catherine had twins, and only one survived.
01:11:23Louisa died with her mother.
01:11:25And the other little girl, named Eleanor, pulled through.
01:11:28I brought her up as best I could.
01:11:31I adopted her, and she took my name.
01:11:34Ward.
01:11:35Yes, Ward.
01:11:36So then Nora is...
01:11:37Eleanor.
01:11:38And her father was...
01:11:39Gordon Stewart, a Canadian.
01:11:4122 years ago, he left Catherine behind and went back to Canada.
01:11:45A half year later, the babies were brought into the world,
01:11:48but he knew nothing about all that.
01:11:50Some time ago, Mr. Stewart returned to London again.
01:11:54And he looked me up.
01:11:55Well, I told him that he had a daughter alive and well.
01:12:03Mrs. Ward, I must give you a tragic bit of news.
01:12:07Gordon Stewart has recently been murdered.
01:12:11Murdered?
01:12:13And a woman who claims that she's Eleanor Findlay
01:12:17has collected the insurance money.
01:12:19At least that's the story we've been told by Stephen Johnson.
01:12:26Now, I suspect that that upstanding man is a rather shady character.
01:12:32And therefore, I want to investigate him and his company.
01:12:35I'll be quite surprised if I don't find something.
01:12:38I mean to do it tonight.
01:12:39Unfortunately, you won't find him there.
01:12:43So much the better.
01:13:05Thank you.
01:13:29Put up your hands.
01:13:31Put them up.
01:13:33If you turn around, you're a dead man.
01:13:39Now, go and open the cabinet in the corner.
01:13:50Open it.
01:13:54You heard me.
01:13:58Open it, I said.
01:14:02Open it.
01:14:18Open it or I'll fire.
01:14:32Open it.
01:15:02Open it.
01:15:32Open it.
01:16:02Open it.
01:16:32Open it.
01:17:03Who are you?
01:17:14What do you want from me?
01:17:19I...
01:17:20I've only been obeying orders transmitted to me by my superiors, that's all.
01:17:24I don't know anything.
01:17:26I don't know anything.
01:17:28Well, you know too much.
01:17:32No!
01:18:02You really need not be concerned about your aunt.
01:18:04I've posted a special guard in front of her house.
01:18:06Inspector Holt should have been back long ago.
01:18:09Yes, but...
01:18:11Oh, something is wrong.
01:18:19Sergeant Harvey speaking.
01:18:21A fatal accident, a murder, Sergeant.
01:18:23And the Greenwich Insurance Company is on the run.
01:18:26I'm afraid it's too late.
01:18:28I'm afraid it's too late.
01:18:29Sergeant Harvey speaking.
01:18:31A fatal accident, a murder, Sergeant.
01:18:33And the Greenwich Insurance Company building.
01:18:35Homicide's on the way.
01:18:36Who is it, do you know?
01:18:37Not identified as yet.
01:18:39Larry.
01:18:40Larry.
01:18:42How can you imagine such a thing, Miss Ward?
01:18:45And do you think the inspector would sacrifice his pension?
01:18:59I'm going with you.
01:19:00On the Greenwich case?
01:19:01No, my dear, I can't take the responsibility.
01:19:03I just couldn't go home.
01:19:04I would be frightened to death.
01:19:05I must find out where Larry is.
01:19:07And I could be of some help.
01:19:09If you really want to help us, please go to the blind home.
01:19:12Observe the janitor's behavior.
01:19:13I'm quite sure there's more to him than meets the eye, Miss Nora.
01:19:16The blind home?
01:19:17What do I care about the janitor?
01:19:19Is this another one of your jokes?
01:19:20Dear Miss Ward, if I were trying to make a joke,
01:19:23this would certainly be an awkward time for it.
01:19:25The double police guard will keep an eye out.
01:19:27I'm not frightened for myself, Sonny.
01:19:29I'm thinking of Larry.
01:19:30So am I, Miss Ward, and I promise when I find him,
01:19:32I'll inform you immediately.
01:19:56Good evening, Reverend.
01:19:58Oh, Miss Ward.
01:19:59Won't you come in, my dear?
01:20:02I didn't expect you to open up.
01:20:04Isn't the janitor here tonight?
01:20:05No, this is his night off.
01:20:07Thursdays.
01:20:08And tell me, what's going on?
01:20:10When we spoke on the phone, you were so upset.
01:20:13Yes, Larry Holder disappeared,
01:20:14and I'm so worried about him, I'm afraid to go home.
01:20:17Excuse me for disturbing you on account of my trouble.
01:20:19Oh, my dear, you don't disturb me in the least.
01:20:22I'm overdue.
01:20:23I'm overjoyed to discover that you have confidence in me,
01:20:25and glad you came.
01:20:28Doesn't anybody know where the inspector went?
01:20:31Yes, he went to search an office building.
01:20:33So far, all we know is that a man was thrown
01:20:35from the window into the street.
01:20:37But it was an accident, a murder.
01:20:38It's not been decided.
01:20:39Throw out a dragnet for Stephen Dunn.
01:20:41Have a radio description transmitted to airfields,
01:20:43seaports, and to all railway stations.
01:20:46Sergeant Harvey, I believe.
01:20:49Himself, sir.
01:20:50Why was I not informed as to inspect
01:20:51the host's recent activities?
01:20:52The inspector didn't want Scotland Yard
01:20:53to be compromised, sir.
01:20:55What do you mean by that?
01:20:56What he was doing was illegal, strictly speaking.
01:20:59He was searching the premises without a warrant, sir.
01:21:02I must insist on discipline
01:21:03on the part of all my subordinates.
01:21:04How can I help him?
01:21:05Yes, that's what I'd like to know, sir.
01:21:08I'm sorry, sir.
01:21:09I'm sorry, sir.
01:21:10I'm sorry, sir.
01:21:11I'm sorry, sir.
01:21:12I'm sorry, sir.
01:21:13Yes, that's what I'd like to know, sir.
01:21:15Sir!
01:21:16What is it, Jenkins?
01:21:17I've discovered a secret safe, sir.
01:21:20Well, break it open.
01:21:21Yes, sir.
01:21:23You may stay as long as you wish, you know.
01:21:25Why don't you try to get some rest?
01:21:28Perhaps you can sleep.
01:21:30Sleep?
01:21:31If only I could.
01:21:33My head is bursting.
01:21:37Why don't you try?
01:21:43Nora!
01:22:05Nora!
01:22:07Go ahead now.
01:22:08You may undress if you like.
01:22:13Who's speaking?
01:22:17Where are you?
01:22:22Never mind.
01:22:23You don't have to answer me.
01:22:25I know who you are now.
01:22:26Who am I?
01:22:28The only man here in the home who has his eyesight.
01:22:31The janitor.
01:22:34How else could you know that I was starting to undress?
01:22:38Sooner or later, every criminal gives himself away.
01:22:41Just as you did.
01:22:44Come out of your hiding place.
01:22:46I'm not afraid of you.
01:22:50Why are you hiding?
01:22:52Good evening, Miss Nora.
01:22:56I heard your voice.
01:22:57If you persist in continuing this comedy, this game you're playing,
01:23:00you're surrounded.
01:23:01The police are outside.
01:23:02It's just a matter of minutes before you'll be arrested.
01:23:05I don't know what you're talking about.
01:23:07You know very well.
01:23:08You were looking through there just a minute ago.
01:23:10You gave yourself away.
01:23:11You can try with Blind Jack till he commits your murders.
01:23:14And you murdered Lou Norris after he suspected you.
01:23:16You took advantage of the helplessness of the blind to further your criminal scheme.
01:23:20But now there's no way out for you.
01:23:23Your time is up.
01:23:42What a pity, Miss Nora.
01:23:43You made me kill him.
01:23:57You!
01:23:58Yes, it's me.
01:23:59All this time you were acting under false pretenses.
01:24:02You're not blind!
01:24:05I am not blind.
01:24:07And you aren't a reverend either.
01:24:09No.
01:24:12Sorry to disappoint you, Nora.
01:24:33You're in my hands now, Nora Ward.
01:24:35Unless I decide to free you.
01:24:36All those nice policemen out in the street are no help.
01:24:45What's going to happen to me?
01:24:48Nothing terrible, my dear.
01:24:51It's not so bad.
01:24:52I want to marry you.
01:24:53Marry me?
01:24:54Are you out of your mind?
01:24:55Not at all.
01:24:57You're an attractive woman.
01:24:58And besides that,
01:25:00there's an insurance policy in Canada for half a million dollars in your name.
01:25:03Hasn't anybody informed you that you're the daughter of Gordon Stewart?
01:25:07You murderer!
01:25:09You dirty murderer!
01:25:10You killed my father just in order to collect...
01:25:12I'm going to shut up.
01:25:14You're even more vicious than blind Jack.
01:25:16No question about it.
01:25:18Perhaps you now realize I will under no circumstances look into her.
01:25:22And you will be my wife by midnight.
01:25:23Never!
01:25:34Don't do anything foolish.
01:25:36Another step.
01:26:03Larry!
01:26:08Larry!
01:26:11The rampers!
01:26:19Such a charming couple.
01:26:22The lovebirds for years.
01:26:26Too bad they'll come to such a messy end.
01:26:33A corpse is ugly once it's been burned, Nora.
01:26:36If you touch her, I'll tear you to pieces!
01:26:39That's enough.
01:26:42Now, my dear,
01:26:43if you'd said yes, I would have married you, Nora.
01:26:47Why do you want to kill me?
01:26:48What is it you want?
01:26:49I have drawn up a will for you, Eleanor Finlay.
01:26:51It's ready to be signed.
01:26:53And I want you to sign it.
01:26:55I want you to sign it.
01:26:56I want you to sign it.
01:26:57I want you to sign it.
01:26:58I want you to sign it.
01:26:59I want you to sign it.
01:27:00I want you to sign it.
01:27:01Thank you, Eleanor Finlay.
01:27:02It's ready to be signed.
01:27:04In it, you leave all your property to the home for the blind.
01:27:07We need a signature.
01:27:08You'll never get me to sign such a will.
01:27:09Never!
01:27:10Don't be so sure, my dear.
01:27:11I'm convinced you will sign it.
01:27:13Do you see that laundry basket?
01:27:14It can be used for a bath or to drown someone.
01:27:17Without a suspicion of a clue for the police.
01:27:21That's how Lennox died and Baron Garrick and Sporter.
01:27:24And my father!
01:27:26Exactly.
01:27:27In a short while, you will be suffering the same fate
01:27:29if you don't do as I say.
01:27:32Oh.
01:27:35My loyal brother.
01:27:37He thinks of everything.
01:27:39Nothing will be heard above the noise of the pumps and the music.
01:27:42Your brother!
01:27:43Stephen Judd!
01:27:44This respectable minister is none other than David Judd.
01:27:47But David Judd is dead!
01:27:49Not dead, but only buried.
01:27:51I thought it wiser to replace my brother with an old tramp
01:27:54who's putting his coffins.
01:27:55And the home for the blind to which my brother devotes his essence
01:27:59was my own village.
01:28:00The eminent Mr. Stephen Judd on the verge of bankruptcy!
01:28:03The Greenwich Company is, but don't worry.
01:28:06Our personal funds are safe in South America.
01:28:09Insurance has been paid in full.
01:28:12Oh, by the way.
01:28:15You left a souvenir in my office.
01:28:18Be careful next time.
01:28:20It's unloaded.
01:28:23It's time, David. Our plane is waiting.
01:28:25Did you get Miss Finley's signature?
01:28:26Never!
01:28:27No!
01:28:28If you sign, they'll murder you afterwards!
01:28:39Think you're smart, huh?
01:28:41Cheap punk!
01:28:46Sergeant Harvey.
01:28:47Myself.
01:28:49You're working with Inspector Holden on the blind killer case.
01:28:52Quite right.
01:28:53Did you know that Stephen Judd was the owner of the home for the blind?
01:28:56Are you sure?
01:28:57Yes, it's a deal of sale
01:28:58done by the real estate broker in Greenwich Insurance.
01:29:01Two pieces of property located at Blossom Lane 25 and 27
01:29:04was all the appurtenances and buildings.
01:29:06The blind home!
01:29:08Number 27! What kind of a place is it?
01:29:10Now, let me see.
01:29:11Number 27 on Blossom Lane.
01:29:14It's a vacant house.
01:29:15Used to be a big laundry establishment.
01:29:17But it was abandoned years ago.
01:29:19What?
01:29:20Excuse me.
01:29:21Excuse me.
01:29:22Excuse me.
01:29:23Sir!
01:29:24Sir!
01:29:25Blossom Lane, number 27.
01:29:28I couldn't have done it alone.
01:29:30Too bad that we don't have blind jacks at our station.
01:29:33You will convince her to sign out.
01:29:35Never!
01:29:39Your naivety can be considered an illness.
01:29:41You'll find a way of fixing that.
01:29:48Why?
01:29:49Why?
01:29:58Why?
01:29:59Don't you hear her, Inspector?
01:30:02Your fiancée is begging for your help.
01:30:04She'll soon be facing the hangman, both of you!
01:30:22Just a matter of time now.
01:30:24Just a matter of time now.
01:30:29Let me out!
01:30:30Please, let me out!
01:30:32Now, will you sign it?
01:30:33No!
01:30:34Never!
01:30:35Larry!
01:30:37I'm getting it.
01:30:48Look out, David!
01:30:54Look out!
01:31:24Hey!
01:31:51Come on, let's go!
01:31:54Come on, let's go!
01:32:15There they are.
01:32:19Mr. Norman!
01:32:20Thank you, sir.
01:32:22Congratulations, Sergeant.
01:32:23You've got a fine man in the arm, in spite of the distance.
01:32:25That's fine shooting.
01:32:26Sergeant Harvey is the most expert pistol shot in all England.
01:32:29Haven't you heard about his gold medals?
01:32:31No, but nothing of the silver one.
01:32:49Take him away.
01:32:54Thank you, Sonny.
01:32:55You really are a hero.
01:32:57Please, Miss Norman, not one more word.
01:32:59Sergeant just dropped out of your pocket in the fighting,
01:33:01and I thought you might want to knit yourself a pair of wool mittens.
01:33:04He's being funny, Sonny.
01:33:08You're quite a humorist, aren't you, you uniformed joker?
01:33:11There's no better method of steadying the hand than taking up knitting.
01:33:15Knit two and purl two.
01:33:17Now, think it over next time you feel like laughing.
01:33:20Good night.
01:33:23I've taken the liberty of anticipating the happy event
01:33:26which is likely to take place in the future.
01:33:28Rose colored for girls, baby blue for boys.
01:33:31Thank you, Sonny.
01:33:32Your handiwork, I presume.
01:33:34Quite right, sir.
01:33:37Well, I see you're all here waiting for me.
01:33:40Miss Ward?
01:33:41Please sit down.
01:33:45Miss Ward? Larry?
01:33:47I'd like to be the first to congratulate you both on your engagement.
01:33:51Thank you, Sir John, but we only decided last night.
01:33:53How in the world did you find out?
01:33:54Well, you know Scotland Yard always has its special sources of information.
01:33:57We know what's going on.
01:34:00And, by the way, Larry,
01:34:02your promotion to Chief Inspector in recognition of your handling of the John Cates
01:34:06is now certain.
01:34:07You'll get word this week.
01:34:08I appreciate it, Sir John.
01:34:09And as far as you're concerned, Inspector Harvey...
01:34:11Excuse me, Sir John, Sergeant Harvey.
01:34:13No, Inspector Harvey.
01:34:15It's the last ten minutes.
01:34:16In fact...
01:34:18Forgive me, Sir, I must say.
01:34:20This comes as a complete surprise.
