00:00:00There's nothing to make a decent film out of here, dear friends.
00:00:23A murder with a bow and arrow?
00:00:25Come on, they can't be serious.
00:00:26That terrible green archer, what an absurd idea.
00:00:30All who visit here are deceived, so of course they all come here.
00:00:34No one here believes in ghosts.
00:00:35Oh, but they pay to come in here.
00:00:38They want to know why they don't believe in them.
00:00:40Excuse me, what opening is best in here?
00:00:43Two-eight.
00:00:44Oh.
00:00:45Here is the crossbar, where the ancient lords of the castle hung their enemies so that everyone
00:00:51could see them.
00:00:52There they hung as a warning to all.
00:00:55Yes, only one didn't care.
00:00:59He was known as the green archer because of the green outfit he wore and the green bow
00:01:03and arrows he used.
00:01:04He fought a guerrilla war against the lords of the castle until in 1377 they caught and
00:01:09hung him too.
00:01:12This unusually well-preserved statue is all that we have to remind us of that foolishly
00:01:16brave archer.
00:01:17Oh, but I heard that the green archer's ghost had been seen recently.
00:01:22The ghost?
00:01:23Oh yes, of course.
00:01:25But only while Mr. Bellamy, he owns this castle, is out of town.
00:01:29I'm only his secretary and the ghost wouldn't appear at this time in the afternoon, of course.
00:01:36For only ten shillings, my friends, you may purchase a booklet that gives the details
00:01:39of the history of this castle, including a lurid account of the archer.
00:01:43In here...
00:01:54Nicely made, who was it that made it?
00:02:06It's an ordinary stock bow, I merely painted it.
00:02:09Ah, then there goes one more mystery.
00:02:12Well, you know how it is, they want a little atmosphere.
00:02:17But how about doing a story on it, eh?
00:02:20Shoot some shots for the newsreel?
00:02:22I am a reporter, not a press agent.
00:02:25Yes, well, we all have to live.
00:02:30You can be sure when Bellamy comes back home, my game's over.
00:02:36Yes, but he'll surely know what it is that you've done.
00:02:39These tours, I've no doubt he'll be angry naturally.
00:02:42He might bellow a little, I think that's all I face.
00:02:45What opening do I use now?
00:02:47And now, ladies and gentlemen, to the next room.
00:02:50Uh, excuse me, maybe you can help me with the shutter speed.
00:02:56Hey, you!
00:02:57I'm asking you something!
00:03:00No manners, these Europeans.
00:03:02Hey!
00:03:03Ah!
00:03:04Is he dead?
00:03:05Yes, I guess after all.
00:03:17We have a story for the film.
00:04:17Oh, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry,
00:04:46I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry,
00:05:16Howard, my friend, someday this house will collapse.
00:05:18Nice if I could live that long.
00:05:20Why did you buy it?
00:05:21Very simple, it's nicely located.
00:05:24Abel Bellamy lives over there.
00:05:26Maybe he can help, Valerie.
00:05:28I just can't see Bellamy helping.
00:05:30He might help her find her real mother.
00:05:32Oh, but you are busy figuring out how many children could live in this house, I imagine.
00:05:39I admit it, yes.
00:05:42It would need some repair work.
00:05:44It's strange, somehow, that a young man like you is really so completely devoted to the needs of children.
00:05:51I find contentment taking care of youngsters.
00:05:57Valerie.
00:06:04But among us, we keep no secrets.
00:06:07Of course, that's true.
00:06:09Secrecy can become a bad habit, you know.
00:06:14Yes.
00:06:45Oh, it's you.
00:06:54Oh, the lights in this house don't seem to work too well.
00:06:57I'm not scared now.
00:06:58Were you scared?
00:07:00Of the dark, that is.
00:07:01Yes, I was.
00:07:03And then the way you grabbed my hand.
00:07:05I really thought meeting here wasn't such a bright idea for a while.
00:07:08But you never have had a more marvelous idea.
00:07:11Not ever.
00:07:12I think it was the darkness that attracted me.
00:07:15And the fact that we wouldn't be seen.
00:07:19What brought you here anyway?
00:07:21Oh, I must be at the airport half an hour before takeoff.
00:07:24Mr. Lamotte will drive you there, and we'll come along too.
00:07:28Who's this fellow Lamotte?
00:07:30We met him over at the hotel.
00:07:32It appears he has no trade at all.
00:07:34He's been very kind to me.
00:07:36Kind to you, but more so to Valerie.
00:07:38Valerie has no use for playboys.
00:07:40Nor do I.
00:07:41Perfectly natural, I don't wonder at all.
00:07:44I must admit I like fellows who are quite able to take life as it comes.
00:07:49He has friends all over London, it seems.
00:07:52Of course, he knows Abel Bellamy.
00:07:59Mr. Bellamy, yesterday at your castle there was a murder.
00:08:02I hope the murderer will be caught and hanged.
00:08:06And a few others also.
00:08:08Did you know the victim?
00:08:09Am I clairvoyant?
00:08:11Up to now, he's not even known by the police.
00:08:13I say, he's in a moniker.
00:08:18And what does that mean?
00:08:20I'm also American.
00:08:22And besides me, there are 180 million.
00:08:25Plane number 480 out of Copenhagen has landed.
00:08:28Start the conveyor belt, please.
00:08:32Miss, have you an electrical outlet?
00:08:40My secretary, Julius Savini, had my orders absolutely to admit no one into the castle.
00:08:46Could it be there was something he wanted to be hidden?
00:08:48And now in England, privacy is not allowed?
00:08:51I didn't mean that. What is forbidden is murder.
00:08:54Would you be saying I have something to do with that murder?
00:08:57If you say so.
00:08:59Isn't it true that while you were a resident of Chicago,
00:09:02you knew some unsavory figures, you might say?
00:09:05I am still surrounded.
00:09:06Can you tell us names, then?
00:09:08Names, no, but I can show them to you.
00:09:10Look at each other and you'll be able to know them all.
00:09:13You're absolutely right.
00:09:15Mike Holland, how do you do?
00:09:17Just a couple of pictures for television, if you please.
00:09:19Yes.
00:09:26Do you know this fellow, Bellamy?
00:09:28Directly, no.
00:09:30Only the name is familiar to me.
00:09:32My best friend was John Bellamy.
00:09:33John?
00:09:35Yes, a nephew of this Bellamy.
00:09:37Unfortunately, during the war, he was shot down.
00:09:39Apparently, he had no relatives other than his uncle here
00:09:41because he made me his heir.
00:09:43That's sort of strange, isn't it?
00:09:45Do you really think so?
00:09:47Not everybody loves his relatives.
00:09:49On the other hand here, Miss Valerie loves my friend Howard
00:09:51like her own father.
00:09:53And they're not even a bit related.
00:09:56Welcome to London, Mr. Bellamy.
00:09:58I suppose you informed all those reporters I was here.
00:10:00Of course you did.
00:10:01Take care of that.
00:10:04Something for the poor sir.
00:10:17Well, Bellamy, hello again.
00:10:19You want something from me, speak to Mr. Savini.
00:10:21Now, hold on there.
00:10:23Listen.
00:10:25Abel Bellamy.
00:10:27He's always been a scoundrel and remains that way.
00:10:29You're not going to intimidate me, are you?
00:10:31No.
00:10:33Bellamy, miserable as ever.
00:10:35Valerie, one day you'll regret this.
00:10:37Do you hear?
00:10:39Filthy trash.
00:10:42He's rather odd.
00:10:44And a bit cruel as well.
00:10:46I'm pretty sore at him myself.
00:10:48Mike Holland, I asked him for an interview
00:10:50and he just walked away.
00:10:52You want a story on Bellamy?
00:10:54Of course, yes indeed.
00:10:56This afternoon, come and see me in Stanmore.
00:10:58Oh, Stanmore. Good, yes.
00:10:59Good, yes.
00:11:29Please drive into the next 5th Street.
00:12:00Hello, Scotland Yard.
00:12:02Yes.
00:12:04Please put me in touch with the criminal division B.
00:12:07Hello.
00:12:09The name is Krager.
00:12:11Yes.
00:12:13Yes.
00:12:15Yes.
00:12:17Yes.
00:12:19Yes.
00:12:21Yes.
00:12:23Yes.
00:12:25Yes.
00:12:27Yes.
00:12:29I have important information to give you on Abel Bellamy.
00:12:31Of course.
00:12:33You'll soon see how important it...
00:12:36No, not by telephone.
00:12:39I must show it to you.
00:12:50It wasn't my fault.
00:12:52Bellamy was the one.
00:12:54Abel Bellamy.
00:12:56Not I.
00:12:57Not I.
00:12:59No.
00:13:01I was only the tool and that's all.
00:13:03He was the one that threw him in jail.
00:13:05He, Bellamy.
00:13:27Mr. Krager.
00:13:29Mike Holland is here.
00:13:57Hello.
00:13:59Is anyone there?
00:14:05Hello, Sergeant Higgins.
00:14:07How goes it?
00:14:09Nice to see you.
00:14:11Here?
00:14:13A pretty green, eh?
00:14:15Last week I was going to buy a sweater.
00:14:17Just that color.
00:14:19Oh, I hope you did.
00:14:21Doctor?
00:14:23Well.
00:14:25Well, then I'll say goodbye.
00:14:27Goodbye, Mr. Higgins.
00:14:29Very glad you've been well.
00:14:31Be seeing you sometime.
00:14:33Why the big hurry, Mr. Holland?
00:14:35Hurry? Who, me?
00:14:37I'm just on the way here.
00:14:39You're busy, I know.
00:14:41Get busy soon.
00:14:43We both, both are busy.
00:14:45I have no intention of annoying a busy fellow that...
00:14:47But you're no annoyance.
00:14:49So you say.
00:14:51But you're just tactful, that's all.
00:14:53Wouldn't you like to watch us do our job, Holland?
00:14:55No, no.
00:14:57So long.
00:14:59Don't you get the idea yet, Spike?
00:15:01Yes, sir.
00:15:03What do you mean?
00:15:05So you get it good and clear, listen.
00:15:07You must remain here.
00:15:09I must remain?
00:15:11Is it, is it because of him?
00:15:13Yes.
00:15:21Oh, tell the man that I wasn't the one that did it.
00:15:24No one accused you of it.
00:15:25Now come on, Spike, tell me what you saw.
00:15:27Tell me what I saw, yes. Let me see now.
00:15:29A murdered man.
00:15:56Finished?
00:15:58Yes, the report comes tomorrow.
00:16:00Is Inspector Featherstone still absent on leave?
00:16:02Yes.
00:16:04Been quite a while, eh?
00:16:06No, just two months tomorrow.
00:16:08Well?
00:16:10I didn't find anything new in the files.
00:16:12Krager wasn't an inspector in jail for 34 years,
00:16:14as I originally thought.
00:16:16Well, I don't know.
00:16:18I don't know.
00:16:20I don't know.
00:16:22I don't know.
00:16:23He wasn't in jail for 34 years, as I originally thought.
00:16:25What then?
00:16:2733.
00:16:29Then I guess that's all there is.
00:16:31Stop, here? In this forsaken area?
00:16:33It's just perfect.
00:16:35And the fresh air will do you good.
00:16:37So that's the way it is.
00:16:39While you returned to Krager's garden,
00:16:41something you lost there?
00:16:43Would that shock you?
00:16:45Remember, you weren't very gentle.
00:16:47But you ran into my arms.
00:16:49You are the most aggravating man I've ever been with.
00:16:51Oh, don't let it worry you.
00:16:53Oh, you're impossible.
00:17:00Good morning, sir.
00:17:02Here. Very well, sir.
00:17:05What's going on here? Since when does anyone live here?
00:17:08Since yesterday, sir. A man down has got him.
00:17:11Well, who are they?
00:17:12How would I know that, sir?
00:17:14Don't give me that nonsense. You know who they are.
00:17:16Well, the name of the man is Howitt.
00:17:19Howitt?
00:17:20Yes.
00:17:24There's nothing against Crager in the record. It seems completely clear.
00:17:28I see.
00:17:29He must have been a strict jailer.
00:17:31And Bellamy, what did you find?
00:17:32Nothing. He once paid three pounds fine for insulting a fiscal office clerk.
00:17:37That's in his favour.
00:17:38He was never in jail, or anywhere else he might have known or met Crager.
00:17:44That's funny.
00:17:45I wonder why Bellamy was giving 40 pounds to that fellow Crager every month.
00:17:54As I can tell you, Crager six years ago saved my life.
00:17:56I understand.
00:17:57And you promised him a monthly payment.
00:18:00What is 40 pounds a month to me?
00:18:04Or do you think that my life isn't worth that much?
00:18:07That's very hard to say.
00:18:09I only hope there will never be circumstances when your life won't be worth a penny, sir.
00:18:14Bannister.
00:18:24I'll leave you. Good night.
00:18:27Take the ashtray away. You know that tobacco stink makes me nauseous.
00:18:31Of course.
00:18:39Did you leave those detectives alone in here?
00:18:42But you were right. He was a good man.
00:18:44He was a good man.
00:18:45He was a good man.
00:18:46He was a good man.
00:18:47He was a good man.
00:18:48He was a good man.
00:18:49He was a good man.
00:18:50He was a good man.
00:18:51I was in here.
00:18:52But you were right here the whole time and...
00:18:54Yes, of course. I was here also.
00:19:01Right here at the desk.
00:19:03Here are your cigarettes.
00:19:06So, you were the spy then?
00:19:10When you're in my private paper sniffing around,
00:19:12don't be so stupid as to leave me a calling card to show me you were the one who did it, idiot.
00:19:16That's it.
00:19:18Since sniffing about is without a doubt your greatest skill,
00:19:20it seems you could tell me just who moved into Lady Manor's next door, eh?
00:19:24I told you already. Mr. Howitt.
00:19:27But not alone, eh?
00:19:29His daughter.
00:19:32Well, do I have to draw you out, you idiot?
00:19:34What is her name?
00:19:35I know only that she is called Valerie.
00:19:44I'm sorry, sir, to bother you so late.
00:19:46I've been checking over the gas bills you received.
00:19:48It's just thievery.
00:19:49Thievery, what?
00:19:51Sorry, sir, but these bills are much too high.
00:19:53We used hardly a bit of gas during your absence, sir.
00:19:56It can't be correct. It's too much.
00:19:59What are you doing with my bills anyway?
00:20:02What's going on here that everyone's messing in my affairs
00:20:04that a man of mine alone can't found it?
00:20:06This is my house and my worries!
00:20:08I engage you as a butler, not as a private detective.
00:20:11But, Mr. Bellamy, I must...
00:20:12Yes, you must! You must let your things and get out of here!
00:20:15Move! And you too!
00:20:19Out!
00:20:21Morons!
00:20:45Get out of here!
00:21:15Get out of here!
00:21:45Get out of here!
00:22:15Get out of here!
00:22:45Get out of here!
00:23:06What's wrong, sir?
00:23:10Salvini, are you deaf?
00:23:11Why?
00:23:12Who locked that door?
00:23:13I...
00:23:14The key.
00:23:15I have it, sir.
00:23:25You've been asleep, eh?
00:23:27And why shouldn't I?
00:23:28Let me see it!
00:23:29Oh, watch it! You don't need to tear it!
00:23:34What have you got there?
00:23:35Just found it?
00:23:40Oh, it's stained with blood. Amusing.
00:23:43A ghost bleeds like us.
00:23:47I'll just have to shoot at anything green.
00:23:49Or anybody!
00:23:52It's been monogrammed VH.
00:23:55Now, who would own this thing, Salvini, eh?
00:23:59The monogram means nothing.
00:24:01What should it mean, sir?
00:24:03Daddy?
00:24:04Why aren't you asleep?
00:24:06I... I just woke up.
00:24:09Did you just come home?
00:24:11Just come home? Nonsense.
00:24:13I was in the kitchen for a midnight snack.
00:24:16Go to sleep, fatherly dear.
00:24:26I... I...
00:24:29I...
00:24:30I...
00:25:00I...
00:25:26Good evening, Elaine.
00:25:28You're not sleeping yet.
00:25:30It's past midnight.
00:25:32Why did you come?
00:25:33I wanted to make sure you were here.
00:25:36Lovely things like you seem easy to lose.
00:25:41Someone's been sneaking around upstairs.
00:25:44So?
00:25:46I think they were interested in the pictures of your son and of your daughter.
00:25:50You're having a dream.
00:25:52They're both dead.
00:25:55Why do you come and tell me stories?
00:25:57When it is now,
00:25:59the middle of the night,
00:26:01as you tell me.
00:26:04Because it gives your spirit a little awakening.
00:26:08And it gives you a little hope.
00:26:10Ah, you believe it is too easy, do you?
00:26:13For me to have given up hope entirely.
00:26:16Well, I am completely resigned
00:26:18to staying in here forever.
00:26:20That's all.
00:26:21If you don't hope,
00:26:22you don't suffer anymore.
00:26:24Well, I...
00:26:25I've long since given up hope.
00:26:28And your gossip just means nothing.
00:26:31And what about this?
00:26:35It belongs to your daughter.
00:26:36She lost it here not a half hour ago.
00:26:38Here in the castle.
00:26:40Isn't that blood?
00:26:41Oh, thank God it is.
00:26:43Or I'd have to believe
00:26:45there are ghosts.
00:26:56Hello?
00:26:57This is Savini.
00:26:58Savini?
00:26:59Didn't I tell you never to telephone?
00:27:01But it's urgent.
00:27:02Bellamy found your handkerchief last night.
00:27:05This made you call me up?
00:27:07I pay you to get information, Savini.
00:27:09But he found it in the castle.
00:27:11You mean...
00:27:13This morning he called Cold Harbor Smith.
00:27:15Smith?
00:27:16That's the man who used to live on Little Bethel Street
00:27:18in the same house as your mother.
00:27:20Oh.
00:27:21Now he owns a Shanghai bar.
00:27:22An awful place near the river.
00:27:24Don't you go anywhere near it.
00:27:25It's dangerous.
00:27:27I must hang up.
00:27:28Someone's coming.
00:27:53Excuse me.
00:27:54I want to see Cold Harbor Smith.
00:27:56You?
00:27:57Yes, I do.
00:27:58Well, is that so funny?
00:27:59Could be.
00:28:00Who are you?
00:28:01Valerie Howatt.
00:28:04Oh, good heavens.
00:28:05Leave him here.
00:28:06Leave him now.
00:28:07He hasn't seen you.
00:28:09I didn't come all this way just to turn him around.
00:28:11But you don't understand.
00:28:12I am Faye.
00:28:13Faye Savini.
00:28:15The wife of Julius.
00:28:17I'm Valerie Howatt.
00:28:18Where is Cold Harbor Smith?
00:28:19He's gone.
00:28:20I'm Valerie Howatt.
00:28:21Where is Cold Harbor Smith?
00:28:50Why don't you sit down?
00:29:10Would you?
00:29:15Please.
00:29:18What do you want of me?
00:29:20I came because years ago you lived in Little Bethel Street.
00:29:23That's all.
00:29:25A strange reason for a visit, isn't it?
00:29:29For those who don't know the secret.
00:29:32But not so strange for us.
00:29:37Faye, will you please tell me the truth for once?
00:29:39All right, now.
00:29:40What are you drinking?
00:29:41She was here, but she went away.
00:29:44A double gin with lemon is what I want.
00:29:47She couldn't have left.
00:29:48I'd have seen her.
00:29:49Now, that's a fine drink.
00:29:51She asked for Smith.
00:29:55She'll be here until four o'clock.
00:29:57No sense in waiting around.
00:29:59He ordered a gin with lemon.
00:30:01We don't have such drinks in here.
00:30:03You get them at the Ritz.
00:30:05Yeah.
00:30:07Uh-huh.
00:30:13Naturally, you were seen coming in here.
00:30:16And you will be seen leaving here, too.
00:30:22Everyone will see you as you leave.
00:30:31However, I didn't say that you would really leave.
00:30:34However, I didn't say that you would really be going.
00:30:37Oh, but I only meant to make sure that
00:30:39you were the man who lived in that house with my poor mother.
00:30:41Yes, of course I was.
00:30:44But what good is knowing, my dear?
00:30:47I can't let you go.
00:30:49Too risky for me, you see.
00:31:03Come on.
00:31:24Oh, help.
00:31:26Let me go.
00:31:28Someone help.
00:31:29All right, you can close the door behind you as you come in I would say you're in trouble Smith
00:31:54Move
00:31:55Who goes first he does she'll hear the splash we'll see how well they swim soon
00:32:01Would you need my help sir? You can't do all that work yourselves. You must have heard of me
00:32:05I know I'm in television spike Holland. Oh
00:32:08Excuse me
00:32:10What do you want here? Which way did you come in? What do you prefer? I tell you first I
00:32:16I
00:32:21Better not keep this thing. I'm not fond of it. You take it. Don't look so stupid
00:32:25Go and get a nice hot drink for your manager. The water must be cold
00:32:29Well get going or you'll go into the water, too
00:32:32All right
00:32:36Wait a minute. This way is much safer. We'd be able to avoid the bar
00:32:40The air in there is always too smoky today, especially so
00:32:45You
00:33:05You're a difficult man to get to see I like it better that way, yeah
00:33:09Well
00:33:14Have you heard of me already come to the point no work to do. Yes, I have
00:33:28If I wanted something from you I would have contacted you right after John's death and not have waited
00:33:34Why didn't you get in touch? I've often wondered
00:33:37There's nothing at all to say well when you want I
00:33:41Began after the war to establish a home for children at first for the children of comrades who died now
00:33:47It's a large organization. What do you want me to do? Well right now here in England. I need a home for them
00:33:53God castle the children's home
00:33:56Is that the idea?
00:33:58Yes, I just thought it might have all the stupid jokes
00:34:01You could have spared yourself the trip
00:34:04You have a visitor miss Valerie, I know who it is, right
00:34:09You can go this way mr. Ward this way, please. Well, then I think I made myself clear now. Goodbye

00:47:56You
00:47:59There's nothing to be found
00:48:01Nothing
00:48:02That's impossible. Well banister and coldman found a secret door
00:48:06Very good. It leads to an area that can be reached by an entirely normal door, too
00:48:10The secret doors are never built for fun. Where is it in the hall near the kitchen?
00:48:25So
00:48:37Oh, it's just you banister didn't you see me then no
00:48:44Who's out there let me see
00:48:47What is it
00:48:50I believe I just heard a weak cry
00:48:53Well, i'm not the one who cried I believe I did hear it but it was out of doors
00:48:58No, it came from there
00:49:01It was the pump we have our own water pump here it makes some noises I don't hear it anymore
00:49:22We have searched everything no luck at all I see
00:49:28We need blueprints of the house we don't have them though not yet call all our people together
00:49:36So, mr. Bellamy
00:49:38This was the overture then you planned for a dress performance to follow eh, but I won't take part in your play
00:49:44This isn't a play at all
00:49:46That's all for now. Oh
00:49:49Mr. Bellamy
00:49:50I get 54 shillings, sir
00:49:53You get what you know
00:49:56One week's salary as your porter
00:50:04A little extra for you the rest is in recognition of true loyalty. I thank you sir
00:50:17That dirty rotten spy
00:50:20The scotland yard forget about him everything must be done before he returns
00:50:25Yes, but the calliope is just getting into the harbor
00:50:28And until we unload her then we won't unload
00:50:32Long hard years. I have waited just for this moment. I don't give a hoot about this unloading. I'm stupid
00:50:38So
00:50:46Listen above all no steam
00:50:49And for the crew a double ration of rum, that'll keep them quiet. Okay, they're not good drinkers make a drunk click
00:50:55It's better that they don't leave their quarters when we bring the girl on the boat
00:50:58If they see a skirt, there's trouble I tell you then they mustn't see at all
00:51:03Now let's get to work
00:51:08I was very disappointed
00:51:11I have to admit
00:51:13About your working for scotland yard. Is that a crime? Not that
00:51:18Tell me
00:51:20I guess that I am a romantic
00:51:23Every american girl is you know, and now you think that I stay near you only because of my profession
00:51:30Isn't that it
00:51:38You must be very careful now
00:51:41Listen valerie
00:51:43Bellamy has warning
00:51:45We've shown that we suspect him
00:51:47He will do something, but we just don't know what it might be or when
00:51:51Bellamy is not the normal criminal. We're accustomed to valerie
00:51:56You seem worried
00:51:59A bit
00:52:00Not because of me
00:52:02I must always know where you are and if anything happens and I can't come to you myself i'll send sergeant higgins

01:12:27So
01:12:57I
01:13:05Don't know the bible I never read books. I only know that cain murdered abel. That's all
01:13:13You're looking at abel
01:13:15And my brother
01:13:17He was your father
01:13:18He didn't kill me
01:13:20But I often wish that he had done just that truly
01:13:24But our father suddenly became rich
01:13:28It was in oil
01:13:30That I discovered on our estate I only 14 years old
01:13:37But what did it mean
01:13:39Your father went to the best schools
01:13:42universities
01:13:43everything
01:13:44For me
01:13:45It was too late
01:13:47One day I fell in love with a pretty girl
01:13:51I was proud of her and I introduced her at home
01:13:55And she married your father
01:13:59On her wedding day
01:14:03The wedding day of your parents I swore
01:14:08Valerie
01:14:14Miss howard
01:14:24You jennet
01:14:54I
01:14:56Never got even with your father. He died shortly after your birth
01:15:00Oh, but my brother not really. I only had him beaten up a bit
01:15:04Had him thrown in jail had him plugged while he was there, but he died during the war and saw escape from me
01:15:10And then there was you of course
01:15:12And above all your mother
01:15:15Nothing would have occurred if she was my wife
01:15:18But she wouldn't do it
01:15:21So one night I told her that you had died
01:15:24And took you as the pretended orphan to the howards
01:15:28Your mother is sure you are dead
01:15:34I wouldn't worry too much. Mr. Howell, you think you'll be able to find my daughter?
01:15:36We're on the job and hope that you'll be together again with your daughter very soon. Good evening
01:15:41Okay, let's go
01:15:43So
01:15:53Wow locked up it's all done good. Nobody gets out. Who do you have in there?

01:16:11Inspector featherstone
01:16:13Inspector. Yeah, so why not? I don't like kidnapping any policeman. I tell you that's really
01:16:20It really doesn't matter now, but what now but now yeah
01:16:24I thought you might like to watch me get my revenge
01:16:27I've already taken care of that matter of the girl, haven't I?
01:16:29And you promised me 10 000 for that. You remember? Yes. Yes
01:16:32And now you want to get away with all the fun coming?
01:16:34I'm, not enthusiastic about shooting and police and stuff like that. That's all right. All right. I won't hold you
01:16:39I have it
01:16:40here
01:16:42It's all counted my friend
01:16:49But you won't be needing your tools anymore, yeah
01:16:59Be sure to take it all
01:17:10So
01:17:28Yeah, it is nice to wake up in the arms of a friend, eh lacy

01:18:43That crook here, too
01:18:45You two can quarrel about this if we ever get out of here
01:18:49We might not get out then. Oh, but I thought I thought that's why you were here
01:18:54Miss howard
01:18:56And I guess I too were dragged here from ladies manor through some sort of gallery
01:19:00Then there must be another entrance here somewhere
01:19:03Which we will use as an exit. I hope we can find it
01:19:06I
01:19:08Think we'd better have a look inside
01:19:12Open up
01:19:21Go ahead go ahead
01:19:36That's the second exit
01:19:40Blown up. Hey featherstone

01:20:38No

01:22:26And I had everything packed
01:22:48Oh melanie, why do you do this in five minutes the police will be in here

01:22:57Everyone has a last wish before they hang
01:22:59And i'm telling you mine
01:23:02That you all drown like rats and why drown us you took elaine away
01:23:11And now I will ask sergeant pegan to say a few words from the scene
01:23:15Okay
01:23:17For whom do you hold this party for mr
01:23:19April bellamy with greetings from scotland york
01:23:22Are you sure that he's been living since he blew up his tunnel? It's quite obvious. There's just no other place that he can go
01:23:30Able bellamy drop the gun you won't need it anymore
01:23:45Who
01:23:47Who are you?
01:23:50My picture is in your desk, but you never bothered to look at it your hard luck
01:23:58Yes
01:23:59john
01:24:00Nephew that you had thrown into jail
01:24:03You should have had them plug my face too. Then I would have had a few scars then you took elaine
01:24:09Elaine is quite safe
01:24:11Oh, let me check the sound for a moment
01:24:2328 29 30 31 32
01:24:38Watch it
01:24:41So
01:24:43Oh
01:25:07Oh, are you running higgins? Yes. Oh that wasn't really necessary. We still had 14 seconds left
01:25:12Well everyone, I think we ought to get a cup of tea with some rum and some warm blankets. Thank you. Higgins
01:25:20I was sure he must be the archer. No, there he lies the real one. I mean
01:25:40John wood
01:25:42John
01:25:44John bellamy
01:25:48Your brother
01:25:55Sorry, I really liked him and he did save my mother too
01:26:01She's all right now
01:26:03She only needs some rest
01:26:05Oh listen
01:26:07She wants us to come over and see her us. Mm-hmm
01:26:11Well, it's foolish for her son-in-law to have to visit her alone
01:26:15Especially since she hasn't seen her daughter in 20 years
01:26:19The blankets. Oh, thank you
01:26:24Tea with the rum 1835 pounds with 10 000 there
01:26:35My brother, why did he take me into the cellar? Oh, but that wasn't john
01:26:40Bellamy knew that the reason behind the green archer's appearance was himself and him alone. So he worked out a plan
01:26:46To use the same idea as to carry out his own ideas
01:26:51And so his servant here also became a green archer there he is another archer
01:26:59Oh, but he didn't work out to his benefit
01:27:02Thank heavens. It's all over
01:27:05For a while there. I even thought you were the green archer. Yes, I did too me
01:27:09Yes, because you were really the only one who seemed to know the story then why didn't you tell us everything
01:27:15I think I know why
01:27:18On your account now, what's going on there? It's nothing at all. They're just shooting another film out there
01:27:30It was frequently very hard
01:27:32Oh, but I couldn't take any chances. I had to protect you from anything that could hurt you
01:27:36I don't envy you at all. I was careful to ask inspector featherstone to keep close watch over you
01:27:42His job was not properly done
01:27:45Oh, yes, I know. I know
01:27:47I'll have to arrange for additional practice
01:27:50You might do that
01:27:52What's holding you up?
01:27:55Um
01:28:03Spike will you please get out of here? There's a lot of work to be done
01:28:08One moment, what is it an arrow's missing?
01:28:15I wonder who it was that was hit with it
01:28:18Ridiculous anyone hit with such a missile would know about it. You can be sure
01:28:23My friends watching me out there if you picked up a green arrow, would you bring it to the box office right away, please?
01:28:28Thank you
01:28:41You
