00:03:00Come in.
00:03:03Come in.
00:03:07Come in.
00:03:12Come in.
00:03:14Come in.
00:03:21Come in.
00:03:22You say the precious stones are all in this one place and are worth a quarter of a million?
00:03:58Well, if I do...
00:03:59If you don't trust us, you'd better go back to your solitary confinement.
00:04:05Where is this place?
00:04:07The fortress of Agra.
00:04:09That is the ground plan.
00:04:10That is the ground plan.
00:04:12The 337 you see there means that from this cornerstone, you count three picks up and 37 along to that point.
00:04:19The sparklers are there.
00:04:21There is a man.
00:04:22And mind you don't forget the sign of fours.
00:04:28And mind you don't forget the sign of fours.
00:04:35And mind you don't forget the sign of fours.
00:04:42Three bricks up.
00:04:4631, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37.
00:04:53.
00:05:12.
00:07:23Agba, fetch my two sons to me at once.
00:07:53What are you doing out of your chair?
00:08:15What's happened?
00:08:17Mother, come on.
00:08:20We'll get back to the fire.
00:08:26For God's sake, keep him away.
00:08:28Don't let him kill me.
00:08:30Don't let him kill me.
00:08:31Father, no one's going to harm you.
00:08:33We'll protect you.
00:08:35Not from Jonathan Small.
00:08:37He'll kill me.
00:08:38He said he would.
00:08:39He escaped a month ago from Andaman.
00:08:41Jonathan Small?
00:08:42Who is he?
00:08:43He's only one leg.
00:08:45The others would.
00:08:46I robbed him of his treasure
00:08:48and killed Morstan in a fight over it.
00:08:51Treasure?
00:08:52Yes.
00:08:53That's where our money comes from.
00:08:55Morstan had a daughter.
00:08:57Mary, I think her name is,
00:08:59runs a florist shop in the West End.
00:09:02Look.
00:09:04Open the top drawer of that desk.
00:09:07Don't you.
00:09:08Don't you?
00:09:09Yes.
00:09:10Yes.
00:09:11I'm trying to take that back.
00:09:12I'll take that back.
00:09:13There's a corner on the right side.
00:09:22Yes.
00:09:23I'll keep that.
00:09:24Be careful.
00:09:25Be careful.
00:09:26Oh, my sons, don't quarrel over them.
00:09:28What suffering they've caused already.
00:09:30Oh, my sons, don't quarrel over them.
00:09:33What suffering they've caused already.
00:09:36Those are the Rasputana pearls.
00:09:38I want them to go to Mauston's daughter.
00:09:40You must also give her one third of the rest.
00:09:44Yes, Father, I promise.
00:09:45Where is the rest?
00:09:47I've hidden it in Pondicherry Lodge.
00:09:49Where?
00:09:50Upstairs, in the...
00:09:55Essen, Essen, do you hear?
00:10:00Do you hear?
00:10:02That stomp.
00:10:04Stomp.
00:10:06That wooden leg.
00:10:08No, of course you don't.
00:10:11It's only in my head pounding there.
00:10:16I do hear it.
00:10:19I do.
00:10:30Father.
00:10:50Stop.
00:10:51Stop.
00:10:52Father.
00:10:53Akbar.
00:10:54Akbar, go outside.
00:10:55There's a man.
00:10:56Stop him.
00:10:56Stop him.
00:10:57He's dead.
00:11:00No one here, sir.
00:11:05Someone just gone in taxi.
00:11:16He never told us where the treasure is.
00:11:30A couple of more jabs in the pink, matey.
00:11:34And the beautiful spectacle of love, wearing the Rasputana pearls, will be finished.
00:11:41One more day of this and I'd run out on you.
00:11:45Well, it had to be done, didn't it?
00:11:47No one will recognize you now as convict number double four seven three oh.
00:11:51I'd rather be young, shot, grounded and electrocuted than go through this again.
00:11:58Perhaps we can arrange that too.
00:12:00Well, she looks a bit on the fat side to me.
00:12:01Oh, a bit of fat over your kidneys will keep you warm.
00:12:02Oh, I'm the professor what's done it.
00:12:04Think of the money people pay to look at you.
00:12:05Well, she looks a bit on the fat side to me.
00:12:06Oh, a bit of fat over your kidneys will keep you warm.
00:12:07I'll make you fat and I'll get my hands on those sparklers again.
00:12:08Sitting in a sofa full of food that that nice little bit of electron I did there will
00:12:12see you.
00:12:13I'm the professor.
00:12:14I'm the professor what's done it.
00:12:15Keep your hand away and leave it alone.
00:12:16Let it get dry.
00:12:17You'll have a look at yourself.
00:12:18You're a masterpiece.
00:12:19That's what you are.
00:12:20And I'm the professor what's done it.
00:12:21Think of the money people pay to look at you.
00:12:22Well, she looks a bit on the fat side to me.
00:12:23A bit of fat over your kidneys will keep you warm.
00:12:24I'll make you fat and I'll get my hands on those sparklers again.
00:12:27Sitting in a sofa full of food that that nice little bit of electron I did there
00:12:36was spread out in the spell.
00:12:38God bless our old.
00:12:40Yeah.
00:12:41I've been listening to you talk about them sparklers for ten years.
00:12:47And I believed you.
00:12:48Broke out of andaman with you.
00:12:51Me with only three more months of my sentence to do.
00:12:53Let you stick a million holes in me eyes and make me look like a blooming zoo.
00:12:57You've been lying.
00:12:58And if you ain't, let's see the color of them sparklers.
00:13:01Quick or I'll break you.
00:13:02You're what?
00:13:06Now then, Algiella.
00:13:07Be a good boy and do what Papa wants you to.
00:13:10And don't make Papa have to cave your blooming ribs in.
00:13:14Go on, matey.
00:13:16You don't think I've spent it in that stinking prison for twenty years without getting educated,
00:13:19do you?
00:13:21You don't think I spitted in that stinking prison for 20 years without getting educated, do you?
00:13:34They said they sent me to Quad to learn me a lesson and I learned it.
00:13:38I've been through Oxford. In the first place, most of the treasure is safe.
00:13:45How do I know? Because old Sholto hadn't got the nerve to use much of it.
00:13:50And how do I know he hadn't got the nerve? Because I looked at him once and he kicked the bucket.
00:13:57Why aren't those pretty Sholto boys sent the cops on me?
00:14:00They don't want me to make no noise about the sparklers.
00:14:03For fear the real owners will turn up and claim them.
00:14:06And for fear of losing them, they'll only turn them into cash one at a time.
00:14:11But there are so many of their beauties. So very many.
00:14:16There'll be plenty for us when we get round to collecting.
00:14:23No, matey. There's one thing you'll never know.
00:14:28And that is, what a beautiful thing it is to be educated.
00:14:33Oh, I know enough.
00:14:34Enough to keep your mouth shut, I hope.
00:14:37I never did fancy myself and me government haircut.
00:14:41But I can't wear these sook and trishes for long.
00:14:44They make me itch.
00:14:46I'll just put on me best Sunday go to meeting prop and give the ladies an eyeful.
00:14:53Now you stay right here in the fun fair and keep your own fires burning.
00:15:10And mind you keep an eye on Tonga too.
00:15:13You don't go on exhibition until next week.
00:15:16If I was to say to you,
00:15:25Now for the treasure of Monte Cristo and the world is mine,
00:15:29You wouldn't know what I meant, would you?
00:15:31No.
00:15:33Cause you're not educated.
00:15:36Trench.
00:15:38Ten years of a pen and never learned nothing.
00:16:06There it is, Miss Norston.
00:16:14Good morning.
00:16:46I quite Johnson.
00:16:56Back door!
00:17:22Back door!
00:17:24There's somebody here. I'll put on the light.
00:17:54Once we get out of your shelter, you'll be having breakfast with your father in the morning.
00:18:01I'm simply charmed to meet you, Mr. Shelter. My name's Small. Jonathan Small.
00:18:13You've heard my name before, huh? Perhaps from your dear father. Nice man, your father. Wasn't that?
00:18:25Yes.
00:18:27You're a liar. He was a dirty, rotten sneak thief. A worse crook than him ever lived.
00:18:33Did he tell you he was a murderer too? Did he? What?
00:18:38He confessed. All those things. Just before he died.
00:18:44Did he tell you all about the treasure? Did he?
00:18:48Yes.
00:18:52Mayday, we've been wasting our energy upsetting the gentleman's house.
00:18:56All we got to do was to ask him in my pretty sparklers where, and he'd tell us.
00:19:02Where are they?
00:19:06I don't know. Huh?
00:19:08The father died before he could tell us.
00:19:12I'm disappointed in you, Shelter.
00:19:15I thought you too much sense in the play with me.
00:19:18The treasure's hidden somewhere. We've not been able to find out where.
00:19:22Where? All of it.
00:19:24Yes.
00:19:25Yes, yes, yes, yes. All of it.
00:19:28Hesitating a little.
00:19:30That means you're lying.
00:19:36Listen to me, you little rat.
00:19:38We're going to get this stuff anyway.
00:19:40Whether you're tennis or not, or whether you die or not.
00:19:42Just spit it out.
00:19:48Stop! Stop!
00:19:50I'll tell. I'll tell.
00:19:56Well?
00:19:58I told you the truth.
00:20:00The bark of the treasure, we, we can't find it.
00:20:04Only the pearls.
00:20:06The Rajputana pearls.
00:20:08Why are they?
00:20:10Promise that my brother and myself won't be harmed.
00:20:12Unless you get funny and tell the cops.
00:20:14Oh, I promise, I promise we won't.
00:20:16Captain Morstan's daughter.
00:20:18Captain Morstan's daughter has them.
00:20:20Well, where is she, huh?
00:20:22She keeps a flourished shop.
00:20:28There you are, sir.
00:20:48You're changed, sir.
00:20:50Two and six, five and five makes sense.
00:20:53Thank you, sir.
00:20:54Call again.
00:20:55I will.
00:20:56I will.
00:21:26Bye.
00:21:38You haven't seen it.
00:23:10How on earth could you know?
00:23:13You're a very remarkable man, Watson.
00:23:15Me?
00:23:16The finest audience in the world.
00:23:18I never cease explaining my methods to you.
00:23:21And apparently your amazement grows deeper every day.
00:23:25But how could you possibly know what I've been thinking?
00:23:27You were looking at those tiger pictures in the paper until your eyes were nearly popping out of your head.
00:23:34Your expression then was unmistakable.
00:23:37Yes, I suppose it was.
00:23:38Yes, you came down to earth and realized that tiger shooting is no longer for you.
00:23:44It's very simple, really.
00:23:45Yes, like all great things, Watson.
00:23:47You know, I owe you an apology.
00:23:53You come here for adventure and I've none to offer you.
00:23:56Very soon out of London's teeming millions, some distressed person will step up to the door and knock.
00:24:02Ring, Watson.
00:24:02The knocker doesn't function.
00:24:03You should have noticed that.
00:24:04Oh, very well, Ring, then.
00:24:08Ah, she's made up her mind.
00:24:11What?
00:24:12Who?
00:24:13Look.
00:24:18Evidently you find the young lady's case interesting already.
00:24:27Miss Morstan to see you, sir.
00:24:28Miss Morstan?
00:24:29Did she tell you her business?
00:24:31No, sir.
00:24:32But she seems terribly upset.
00:24:34Oh, well, show her up.
00:24:38This is one of your teeming millions, Watson.
00:24:41Miss Morstan?
00:24:46Mr. Holmes?
00:24:47Mr. Sherlock Holmes?
00:24:48Yes, that is my name.
00:24:49I'm terribly sorry.
00:24:51I think...
00:24:52I'm afraid I'm going to fit.
00:25:03Well, I'll get some brandy.
00:25:04I've had a frightful shock of some kind.
00:25:07Thank heaven you were here, Watson.
00:25:09In such embarrassing matters as fainting women, I must defer to you.
00:25:14Thanks.
00:25:14That's better.
00:25:25Now, you'll feel all right again in a minute.
00:25:30I feel terribly ashamed.
00:25:33I apologize.
00:25:34Perhaps I'd better go.
00:25:34And deprive it of the pleasure of offering the assistance you came to seek.
00:25:40Miss Morstan, tell me, why were you so afraid of being followed here?
00:25:46How did you know?
00:25:47Well, there's hardly a mystery.
00:25:47I simply observed you from the window.
00:25:48Oh.
00:25:49Now, Miss Morstan.
00:25:50It's rather a long story.
00:25:51Shall I begin at the beginning?
00:25:52Yes, please do.
00:25:53An amateur investigator like myself can't have too many facts of a case to work on.
00:25:57A number of years ago, my father, Captain Morstan, mysteriously disappeared whilst on his way home on leave from the Orient.
00:26:03Oh, Miss Morstan, uh, Captain Morstan, uh, Captain Morstan, uh, something to do with a convict settlement at, um, uh, Andaman Island, was it?
00:26:23Yes, I remember.
00:26:24You remember?
00:26:25Yes.
00:26:26You learn to expect such amazing things from Mr. Holmes.
00:26:27And I'm afraid that completes my knowledge of the first chapter.
00:26:30This was found in my father's belongings.
00:26:33Hmm.
00:26:34Hmm.
00:26:35Hmm.
00:26:36Hmm.
00:26:37Hmm.
00:26:38Hmm.
00:26:39Hmm.
00:26:40Hmm.
00:26:41Hmm.
00:26:42Hmm.
00:26:43Hmm.
00:26:44Hmm.
00:26:45Hmm.
00:26:46Hmm.
00:26:47Hmm.
00:26:48Hmm.
00:26:49Hmm.
00:26:50Hmm.
00:26:51Hmm.
00:26:52Hmm.
00:26:53Hmm.
00:26:54It appears to be the diagram of a large building.
00:26:56A fort, perhaps.
00:26:57Yeah, what's this?
00:26:58Four names.
00:26:59Look, here are four crosses.
00:27:00Yes, four crosses.
00:27:02When I first saw that paper as a child, I wondered what those crosses meant.
00:27:06And today, when I saw it again on another paper...
00:27:08Again?
00:27:09Yes.
00:27:10That's the modern side of the story.
00:27:12It's all very simple to me.
00:27:18First, we does both the scholter boys in,
00:27:21with a nice little bit of candy,
00:27:22Nice little bit of cuttin' round the jugular vein.
00:27:28And, for the matter of that,
00:27:31sticks a knife into the Marston girl, if she won't tell.
00:27:35Then, off we go to South America with the sparklers.
00:27:41It's all very simple to me.
00:27:43When you're done with the three of them,
00:27:44I suppose you'll start an old blooming police force.
00:27:47Now, there'll be no murdering unless absolutely necessary.
00:27:53Can't do much of it without leaving some clue.
00:27:56Eh?
00:27:57Clue.
00:27:58You know what clue is, don't you?
00:28:00Yes, something you sticks paper together with.
00:28:04Really?
00:28:06When we get to South America,
00:28:08I'm sending you to night school.
00:28:14Do you want the feel of my boot in your face?
00:28:16It ain't my fault.
00:28:18It's these year's safety razors.
00:28:20Yeah.
00:28:21What about me having a go with a straight one?
00:28:24Not on my neck.
00:28:27With so many things happening in such quick succession,
00:28:30first one note, then another, then the safe broken open.
00:28:33I didn't know which way to turn.
00:28:35I suppose I should have had more courage,
00:28:37in spite of the warning of death and gone to the police.
00:28:40I'm afraid I'm not as brave as I should be.
00:28:42But, Miss Morstan, there's one thing you haven't told us.
00:28:46Actually, where are the pearls?
00:28:49Miss Morstan was afraid to trust even her own safe with such valuables.
00:28:52So she's been carrying them about on her person.
00:28:55That's true.
00:28:56I have them here in my dress.
00:28:57Although this handwriting is obviously disguised,
00:29:01the person who sent you the pearls
00:29:03and the one who invites you to this questionable rendezvous in Acacia Road this evening
00:29:07is one and the same.
00:29:09I should describe him as small, extremely nervous and timid.
00:29:15A perfect example of the homo lupusculus or rabbit man.
00:29:19But the one who threatens your life, he's quite the opposite.
00:29:22A homo tour as powerful as a bull and with great cunning.
00:29:26A killer.
00:29:30An opponent to be reckoned with.
00:29:33And he's only one leg.
00:29:35Mr. Holmes takes such a delight in provoking my curiosity
00:29:39that I swear I'll never ask him again how he makes deductions such as...
00:29:44Well, that by looking at a man's handwriting, he can tell he has but one leg.
00:29:49Perhaps you can tell us, Mr. Holmes, if the color of his eyes,
00:29:52if he likes white mice or...
00:29:55or if he suffers abominably from arthritis.
00:30:01I not only resent your making me appear ridiculous before Miss Morstan,
00:30:04but it grieves me to think, Watson,
00:30:07that you've never read my treatise
00:30:09on the physical and mental reactions of the disabled.
00:30:12For therein I described, with my feeble prose,
00:30:15that the whole physical being of a man who has undergone amputation
00:30:20goes through a complicated process of reorganization,
00:30:23as a result of which his functional characteristics are decidedly marked.
00:30:28His subjective mind, fully conscious of the loss of physical balance,
00:30:33tries to make good that loss by some such expressions as,
00:30:38well, increasing the pressure on the down stroke of a pen,
00:30:43making it firm and straight so that the letters stand up,
00:30:45as it were, on their own legs.
00:30:53Do I make that quite clear?
00:30:55Perfectly.
00:31:02Miss Morstan,
00:31:03I don't want to alarm you unduly,
00:31:06but your homo taurus friend is unreservedly dangerous.
00:31:10For that reason, may I suggest that you accept my meager hospitality
00:31:14until the time of your departure for Acacia Road.
00:31:16Thank you so much.
00:31:18Oh, but I don't want to go there alone.
00:31:20It states in your invitation that you will be allowed two friends.
00:31:26May I have the privilege of appearing as one of them?
00:31:29Thank you very much.
00:31:35Will, will you be my other friend?
00:31:37May I?
00:31:39You're not a bit like a doctor.
00:31:42Now, Miss Morstan,
00:31:44I'm going to turn you over to my trusted housekeeper,
00:31:47Mrs. Hudson, who will see that you're made comfortable.
00:31:50Miss Morstan will dine with me here tonight.
00:31:54If I may be permitted to...
00:31:57Oh, yes, certainly.
00:31:59Yes, yes.
00:32:00We'll give Dr. Watson a chop as well.
00:32:01I don't want to interrupt the violent flatterings of your heart, Doctor.
00:32:11But perhaps you'd be interested to know
00:32:13that never in my career have I encountered a more intricate case.
00:32:17Serious as that?
00:32:18Uh-huh.
00:32:19She'll need all our help and perhaps more before we're through.
00:32:22Uh-huh.
00:32:23And under no circumstances must we allow her to go back to her shop.
00:32:26Shop?
00:32:27She said nothing about a shop?
00:32:29No.
00:32:30No, but I think you'll find that she runs a small florist shop
00:32:33in the West End of London.
00:32:34How can you possibly deduce that?
00:32:36Neatly, but not smartly dressed.
00:32:39Yet she wears an expensive orchid.
00:32:41Orchids are not a suburban trade.
00:32:43Perhaps given her by some ardent admirer.
00:32:46Oh, well, if she had one, she'd have appealed to him and not to us.
00:32:49Besides, fingers used for wiring up flowers become scored, you know, in an unusual way.
00:32:53Yes, I... I think a florist shop.
00:32:57Amazing.
00:32:58No, elementary, my dear Watson.
00:33:01Elementary.
00:33:03Good friends, Watson.
00:33:06In case of need.
00:33:08Now, you'll take Miss Morstan to her home.
00:33:12To watch.
00:33:15Have her change quickly into clothes that are both warmer and a little less conspicuous.
00:33:20Give me.
00:33:22My preparations here will take me about ten minutes, then I'll pick you up.
00:33:25Don't you think we could keep the appointment and leave her out of it?
00:33:28My dear Watson, if we're to catch our fishes, we must use the bait they'll bite on.
00:33:32But, uh, there's no...
00:33:33No, no, no, no.
00:33:34He's getting late, Watson.
00:33:35Getting late.
00:33:37Oh, you'll probably enjoy hearing she does run a florist shop.
00:33:41Oh, really?
00:33:41I'm surprised.
00:33:42Tweezers.
00:33:43Hold.
00:33:54Here's your adventure, all right, Watson.
00:33:58Miss Morstan.
00:33:59Go and knock at the door.
00:34:02We'll be here.
00:34:03Watching.
00:34:13Miss Morstan.
00:34:17Miss Morstan.
00:34:19Yes?
00:34:21Alone.
00:34:24I have two friends.
00:34:28Will you give me your word they are not policemen?
00:34:31Certainly.
00:34:32Come with me, please.
00:34:42Miss Morstan.
00:34:43Mr. Holmes and Dr. Watson.
00:34:49You've kept your taxi, I see.
00:34:50Good, good.
00:34:51Your journey's not over yet.
00:34:53You've news for Miss Morstan?
00:34:55First, we must visit Brother Bartholome, waiting at his house.
00:35:00Taxi.
00:35:01If we go along now, I can tell you the whole thing as we go.
00:35:05No.
00:35:12And last night, my brother found the remains of the real treasure under the attic flooring in Pondicherry Lodge.
00:35:18Such magnificent jewels I've never seen.
00:35:20I had once demanded that they should be divided according to my dying father's wish.
00:35:26I told my brother that I should add my share to yours.
00:35:31It was the only way I could repay you for my cowardly in divulging to Jonathan Small your name,
00:35:37and that I had sent you the pearls.
00:35:39Oh, Bartholome was white with fury.
00:35:41We quarreled violently, and then I went home and wrote the note that you got this morning.
00:35:45You see, I thought that if you were to come and demand your share in person, he damned refuse,
00:35:52in case we should hand the whole matter over to the police.
00:35:55You acted wisely, Mr. Sholto.
00:35:57I'm glad you think I've done one right thing.
00:36:00It took more courage than I thought I had to face the daughter of the man that my father murdered.
00:36:16Wait.
00:36:24McMurdo.
00:36:25Mr. Thaddeus.
00:36:27All right, Mr. Thaddeus.
00:36:41That's all right, McMurdo.
00:36:43Good night.
00:36:46You're not frightened?
00:36:48Terribly.
00:36:49But rather thrilled too.
00:36:53Mr. Holmes.
00:37:03Mr. Thaddeus.
00:37:04Something's the matter.
00:37:06I can't get any answer from the master's room.
00:37:08And he's there.
00:37:10He's there.
00:37:15Oh, there's something devilish in there, Watson.
00:37:29Look.
00:37:32Mrs. Burnstone.
00:37:34A lamp.
00:37:45You've been dead some hours, don't you think?
00:37:57Watson, that's your affair.
00:38:00He's been murdered.
00:38:01Please don't move about.
00:38:02Well, Watson.
00:38:07Not a natural death.
00:38:09Tetanus of some kind.
00:38:11Extreme contraction, far exceeding the usual riga mortis.
00:38:14Precisely.
00:38:15Some powerful alkaloid poison, like stricthine.
00:38:17Mr. Holmes.
00:38:18Look.
00:38:19The treasure's gone.
00:38:20It was there on the table.
00:38:21That's the hole we lowered it through.
00:38:22We've been robbed.
00:38:23And he's been murdered.
00:38:24The police.
00:38:25They'll be called in.
00:38:27They'll find out about the treasure.
00:38:30And say I did it to get the money.
00:38:32You...
00:38:34You don't think I had a hand in it, do you?
00:38:36Gentlemen, I...
00:38:37I didn't.
00:38:51I swear I didn't.
00:38:53I didn't.
00:38:54I swear I didn't.
00:38:55I swear I didn't!
00:38:58Steady, steady, steady.
00:39:00Mr. Shelter, go straight down to the police station and report the matter yourself.
00:39:03Yes.
00:39:05Offer to assist them in every way.
00:39:06Now, it's your wisest course.
00:39:08Now then, Watson.
00:39:09We have a few minutes before the representatives of the law arrive.
00:39:16Ah, I expected this look here, do you see?
00:39:19Just behind the ear.
00:39:25Looks like a thorn.
00:39:28Don't touch it, Watson. It's a deadly poison.
00:39:31This is a dart that's been shot with such force from a blowpipe
00:39:35that before the victim can recover from the shock of the impact,
00:39:38the poison takes effect, causing almost instantaneous death.
00:39:43Such weapons are used by the natives of the...
00:39:46the Ley Peninsula.
00:39:50And the Andaman Island.
00:39:52Andaman?
00:39:54Yes.
00:39:55Yes, it's pretty conclusive, isn't it?
00:39:59Look here.
00:40:00Look here, the same four crosses.
00:40:03Sign of four.
00:40:05Jonathan Smalls!
00:40:06No, possibly not, Watson.
00:40:07Remember, Smalls is only one of four.
00:40:09But more significant still,
00:40:12these crosses have been made with a tattooing needle.
00:40:15The tattooed man!
00:40:18That's quite simple, isn't it?
00:40:21Is it?
00:40:22Well, now we know who did it.
00:40:23All we have to do is to catch him.
00:40:24Yes, that's all.
00:40:26Will you go out and catch him?
00:40:27And I'll wait here till you come back.
00:40:29Yes!
00:40:33But where do I go?
00:40:35Exactly.
00:40:37Let's leave jumping the conclusions to the professional detectives.
00:40:40I prefer to employ my usual method.
00:40:43Carefully reconstructing the crime.
00:40:44In the hope of finding some clue that will lead us to the whereabouts of the criminal.
00:40:50Let us stand on one side, will you, Watson, so that your footmarks don't complicate matters.
00:40:57Now, how did he come?
00:41:00And how did he go?
00:41:01The window fastened on the inside.
00:41:05All the framework's solid.
00:41:07No drain pipe, nothing.
00:41:09Then he couldn't have come in that way.
00:41:11Yes, but he did.
00:41:13Here's a print of a foot in mould on the sill.
00:41:16And, a curious circular muddy mark.
00:41:34Right, there it is again, upon the floor.
00:41:38And, here again, by the table.
00:41:42Here again, by the table.
00:41:46You see that, Watson?
00:41:48A perfect demonstration.
00:41:50But that's not a footmark.
00:41:52No, it's something much more valuable to us.
00:41:54It's the impress of a wooden stub, my dear Watson.
00:41:56A wooden-legged man?
00:41:58Yes, precisely.
00:42:02Yes, but no one could scale that wall,
00:42:04much less a man with only one leg.
00:42:06No, but suppose he had a friend here,
00:42:08who lowers a good stout rope.
00:42:12How have you got in? Not the window.
00:42:16Not the chimney.
00:42:18That's too small.
00:42:20Lend me a hand, Watson.
00:42:22Now we'll have a look at the secret room
00:42:24where the treasure was found.
00:42:26We can surmise that Homo Taurus was here,
00:42:28but the number one man,
00:42:30the one who's skilled in the use of a blowpipe.
00:42:32Who is he?
00:42:34The tattooed man.
00:42:36No, I think not, Watson.
00:42:38No one but a native could have such deadly aim
00:42:40The tattooed man is described by both
00:42:46Sholto and Miss Morstan as a giant.
00:42:48So we must look for someone small
00:42:50who could scale the side of a house
00:42:52without making a sound.
00:42:54There you are, Watson.
00:42:56A disused trap door leading onto the roof.
00:43:00As I can push it back with ease.
00:43:02Now that's how number one entered.
00:43:12There you are.
00:43:14What did I tell you?
00:43:16Impossible. Those are the feet of a child.
00:43:18Not exactly.
00:43:20There's something devilishly like it.
00:43:22Now let's see where that curious foot went to.
00:43:26Get the impression down there.
00:43:28You know that our toes are generally all cramped together.
00:43:30You see, each one of those is divided separately.
00:43:43I've had you better rejoin Miss Morstan downstairs, Watson.
00:43:46She might be frightened when the police arrive.
00:43:48You observe the angle at which the thorn struck.
00:43:58Yes, it must have been shot from the attic.
00:44:00Oh, bravo, Watson.
00:44:02Bravo.
00:44:04What's your theory about these footprints?
00:44:08Well, apply my methods, Watson.
00:44:10And you'll probably find that they'll lead you in directly the opposite direction to that of my old friend, Detective Inspector Athelney Jones, whom I can hear blowing his way upstairs.
00:44:20Yes, sounds like him.
00:44:22Yes, unmistakably.
00:44:23He'll begin by telling me that an ounce of practice is worth a ton of theory and then proceed to arrest everybody on the spot.
00:44:28The arse seems as full as a rabbit, Warren. You stay here. Sergeant, have a look at the other rooms.
00:44:36Yes, sir.
00:44:38Hello, who are you?
00:44:42Why, if it isn't Mr. Sherlock Holmes, the amateur.
00:44:46How are you, sir?
00:44:47I'm all right, Joan, thank you. How are you?
00:44:49You know Dr. Watson.
00:44:50How are you, doctor?
00:44:51How are you?
00:44:52Well, I'll be all.
00:44:56And what brings you gentlemen here?
00:44:58Oh, just a little private investigation?
00:45:01I thought you'd given up our line of business long ago.
00:45:04No.
00:45:05You know, I only take cases too difficult for the official police.
00:45:09Ah, what do you make of this one?
00:45:15Bad business, eh?
00:45:17Yes.
00:45:18You'd hardly thank me for theorising over it.
00:45:21But let's see, eh?
00:45:23What I always says is, Mr. Holmes, an ounce of practice is worth a ton of theory.
00:45:29Yes, yes. I've heard you say it.
00:45:31Sherlock Holmes will never rest until this mystery is solved.
00:45:37What do you think of this theory, Mr. Holmes?
00:45:41Yes.
00:45:42The fellow Thaddeus was with his brother last.
00:45:44The brother dies of a fit, on which Thaddeus makes off with the money.
00:45:48Yes, and on which the dead man very considerably gets up and locks the door on the inside.
00:45:53Oh, well, there may be a flaw, but we can get over that.
00:45:58Yes, but before you actually hang the man, I should like to point out this splinter of wood.
00:46:06Ah, nasty looking thorn.
00:46:12Yes.
00:46:13Be careful, Jones, it's poison.
00:46:15It was found in the dead man's head.
00:46:20Does that fit in with your theories?
00:46:22Perfectly.
00:46:24The only question is...
00:46:26How did he depart?
00:46:28Ah, of course.
00:46:30The hole in the ceiling.
00:46:32He knows the house.
00:46:34I suppose you noticed the hole in the ceiling.
00:46:37Ah, yes.
00:46:38Yes, I did notice it, in passing.
00:46:40There's a trap door leads to the roof.
00:46:43There.
00:46:44You've proved my case.
00:46:45Pretty quick, eh?
00:46:47I can safely say, Jones, that I've never seen anything quite like it.
00:46:51Oh, an ounce of practice.
00:46:53Well, well.
00:46:54Constable.
00:46:55Sir.
00:46:56Ask Mr. Thaddeus Sholto to step up here.
00:46:58Oh, no, my dear Jones.
00:46:59Now, Mr. Holmes.
00:47:01I know you like poking your nose in these things, but you'd better leave this to me.
00:47:07Mr. Thaddeus Sholto, I must ask you to accompany me to the station.
00:47:10It is my duty to inform you.
00:47:12Anything you say may be used in evidence against you.
00:47:14Don't be alarmed.
00:47:15I think I can engage to clear you of the charge.
00:47:18Oh, you do, do you?
00:47:19Well, you'd better not promise too much.
00:47:21All right, Sergeant.
00:47:22Take him away.
00:47:23I shall want to question the others.
00:47:25They may all be in this.
00:47:30Hi, Watson.
00:47:31Is the girl all right?
00:47:32Yes.
00:47:33Good.
00:47:34You found out anything further?
00:47:35Yes.
00:47:36That I have to pay a visit to Mordecai Smiths.
00:47:39Is that the name of the murderer?
00:47:41No.
00:47:42No, it's the name of the man who's been engaged to help our little band of super criminals to escape.
00:47:47Well, how did you find that out?
00:47:48Well, quite simply, Watson.
00:47:49This rope told me all about it.
00:47:51Huh.
00:47:52I've heard of walls having ears, but never of a rope that could talk.
00:47:54No, well, this one can.
00:47:56I found it on the roof.
00:47:58It was brought here by Small and used by Number One to get him up the outside of the house.
00:48:03You see, Jonathan Small, like most master criminals, never commits a crime until he's perfected the method of his escape.
00:48:12Of course, with only one leg, this isn't easy.
00:48:15He can't leave by one of the channel ports because the authorities would immediately search all one-legged men.
00:48:21He can't stay in this country because sooner or later he'd be hunted down.
00:48:24So he arranges to be taken to sea in a fast, small boat and then transferred to some tram steamer, bound for Africa or South America.
00:48:33Perhaps he's already escaped.
00:48:34Not Small.
00:48:35He's waited 20 years in prison planning his revenge and he won't leave till he's completed it.
00:48:40He won't leave without the Rajputana Pearl, the most valuable part of the treasure.
00:48:45And pearls are easier to dispose of than diamonds and other jewelry.
00:48:48Well, where did the rope come in?
00:48:51Mordecai Smith.
00:48:53Is his name on it?
00:48:54No, but it might as well be.
00:48:58In the first place, it's been bleached and soaked by long immersion in salt water.
00:49:02If you'd like to taste it, Watson.
00:49:04No, thanks.
00:49:05You see, at this end there's a spliced loop, which bears the imprint of constant chafing caused by a small ship's brass capstan.
00:49:13The rope is made of cotton.
00:49:15It's not strong enough to hold a large boat.
00:49:17And it's of so soft a texture that it has evidently been used to protect a highly varnished surface, which suggests a speedboat or a launch.
00:49:26On the end of the rope used for tying the boat to a wharf, I found embedded a quantity of powdered malt,
00:49:32which led my thoughts to a warehouse where malt is unloading.
00:49:36Near such a warehouse lives a man that I've known for years,
00:49:40who runs a small pub as a sideline, but whose real underworld business is smuggling.
00:49:45He smuggles contraband to and from boats at sea.
00:49:48Sometimes his contraband are criminals that the authorities are after.
00:49:53So, you see, I really must go to Mordecai Smith's.
00:49:56Positively amazing.
00:49:58Shall I come with you?
00:49:59No, Watson, no.
00:50:01You asked for the job of looking after Miss Morstan, so see that you'll do it.
00:50:06Oh.
00:50:07Request Inspector Jones, very courteously,
00:50:11to assign several of his men to guard Miss Morstan day and night.
00:50:16Don't forget, small still at large, and so are his diabolical helpmates.
00:50:22Yes, protecting Miss Morstan is no small task.
00:50:26Yes.
00:50:36Yes, yes.
00:50:41Good evening, gentlemen.
00:51:11Well, we'll get along soon.
00:51:12Good night, Mrs. Smith.
00:51:13Mammy and the children.
00:51:15Good night, Mrs. Smith.
00:51:16Good night.
00:51:17Come in.
00:51:18Come in.
00:51:19Come in.
00:51:20Come in.
00:51:21Come in.
00:51:22Hello, Mrs. Smith.
00:51:23How are you, Will?
00:51:24How are you?
00:51:25What do you have?
00:51:26It's yours.
00:51:27See, if I do have it with me.
00:51:28Come on.
00:51:29Me, Dad.
00:51:30It's you, old Santa Claus.
00:51:32And what do you bring?
00:51:33It's right, wasn't it?
00:51:34What do you think of that, Al?
00:51:35I'm not sure.
00:51:36No, you're my proud beauty.
00:51:38Are you proud beauty?
00:51:39That's not what the husband calls me.
00:51:41Oh, he don't either appreciate it.
00:51:42Two buttons, right?
00:51:43Right, you are.
00:51:44By the way, where's his old Morty car?
00:51:46Ain't she here?
00:51:47Well, he ain't here.
00:51:48You can see for yourself.
00:51:49That is, if you can see.
00:51:50He's down the river with that putt-putting tub of his.
00:51:53I know.
00:51:54I bet he is.
00:51:55The black one.
00:51:56With the green light.
00:51:58Just where he is.
00:52:00But she ain't a tub.
00:52:02Let me tell you this.
00:52:03She's the part of North Dan River.
00:52:05And she ain't black neither.
00:52:07She's all a lovely cream.
00:52:09With two little black trucks around here.
00:52:10Oh, I know named Hibber.
00:52:12Nothing like.
00:52:14Named after me.
00:52:16Aurora.
00:52:17Aurora is a lovely name.
00:52:20Oh, I love you.
00:52:22Oh, I love you.
00:52:23You like it?
00:52:24You like it?
00:52:25Oh, go on, you old gump.
00:52:26Oh, you look, I don't care.
00:52:28Back at the place.
00:52:29I bet you take the old gump down the river to see that new ruler when I want to go on.
00:52:34Oh, no, he won't.
00:52:35He won't have no time for you.
00:52:37I'll pay the price, eh?
00:52:38Yes.
00:52:39All this trouble customer.
00:52:40Who is he?
00:52:41Oh, isn't you a nosey old Parker, eh?
00:52:44Besides, you wouldn't know him anyhow, because he's a stranger.
00:52:47He's only got one leg.
00:52:49Well, if a stranger was one leg would pay the price, so would an old friend with two.
00:52:52Oh, no, he won't.
00:52:54Because if the old one leg, he just pays him to stand by to use when he wants him.
00:52:59Why, he's paid him a week's money already, and he ain't done the trip yet.
00:53:02We've actually made it tonight, so he'll be ready for me tomorrow.
00:53:05No, he wouldn't do that neither.
00:53:07Because he was here a minute or two ago.
00:53:09He told me he wouldn't want more care not till tomorrow, and perhaps not till the day after.
00:53:12That's your ginsmine.
00:53:13Oh, well, never mind mine.
00:53:14If mine I'll have another boat.
00:53:16See, I'll have another one in a bitter one.
00:53:18Oh, will you?
00:53:19You find a better one, me lad.
00:53:21There ain't a better one.
00:53:22Not unless you mean the Florence Bee and he can't get her.
00:53:25The Florence Bee?
00:53:26That's right.
00:53:27Well, come on, mate.
00:53:28Don't waste it.
00:53:29Give him this.
00:53:30Dance with you.
00:53:31You've got to have no dance with you.
00:53:32Come on.
00:53:33You old old wrecker.
00:53:35Come away with you, wasting my time.
00:53:38Now, what are you going to have to drink?
00:53:39Nothing.
00:53:40Nothing.
00:53:41No dance.
00:53:42No books.
00:53:43No beers.
00:53:44Did you see that, Harold?
00:53:49He don't fancy himself, don't he?
00:53:52One foot in the grave and still flirting.
00:53:55Matching again.
00:53:57This is a trap, Harold.
00:53:58Don't put it back on me.
00:54:04Tonga.
00:54:05Tonga.
00:54:06Tonga, right, sir?
00:54:08Nice bloody diamonds in here, Tonga.
00:54:10Is Tonga a good boy?
00:54:12You get some.
00:54:13Tonga a good boy.
00:54:14Put that in the snake box.
00:54:15N'one'll look for it, there.
00:54:18I'm going to go.
00:54:25Well, grab a couple of your friends around yourself and keep you warm.
00:54:30Got to sleep again.
00:54:48What do you think you're doing with them fireworks?
00:54:53I ain't taking no chances.
00:54:55No.
00:54:56What's the matter with you?
00:54:57You've never seen a ghost.
00:54:59It's worse than that.
00:55:00The cops is after us.
00:55:04How do you know?
00:55:05Went round by the ghost flat over the florist shop.
00:55:07Cops and plainclothes went all over the place.
00:55:09No mistaking what they're after.
00:55:11Put them up on her, eh?
00:55:12Come on, squeal.
00:55:13Come on.
00:55:14Let Morrison keep her pose.
00:55:15Let's take what we've got to knock it.
00:55:16Shut up!
00:55:17Ah.
00:55:18I'm going to have them all.
00:55:19Sides.
00:55:20Pearls are harder to trace.
00:55:21And therefore easier to sell than the diamonds and the other stuff.
00:55:23Well, give me mine now, now, Lucas.
00:55:24You haven't got a chance to get away with your brains.
00:55:26Well, let's get out of here anyway, isn't it?
00:55:28How many times have I got to knock into your block?
00:55:30That when you do something the Lord says you shouldn't,
00:55:32don't start changing to new places.
00:55:35It's then the check gets spotted.
00:55:37Stick to your business as usual,
00:55:39and look as innocent as an angel.
00:55:41We stay right here in the funfair,
00:55:43and show tomorrow night the same way as we've always done.
00:55:46Me, you, and Tonga.
00:55:48Understand?
00:55:49And tomorrow night...
00:55:51Who, who is it?
00:55:54It's I, Dr. Watson.
00:55:56Oh, come in.
00:55:59Just been inspecting your guard.
00:56:01I've got one officer outside the door here,
00:56:04two downstairs,
00:56:06and one in the courtyard outside.
00:56:08Does that give you a feeling of protection?
00:56:10I suppose so.
00:56:12It seems an eternity since this morning.
00:56:15You must try and get some rest.
00:56:17Wipe today clean out of your memory.
00:56:19I'll be all right.
00:56:21I think I'll have a good cry.
00:56:23That'll make me relax.
00:56:25Now I should sleep.
00:56:26You absolutely insist on weeping.
00:56:28Can I offer you my shoulder?
00:56:30I fainted once today in front of you.
00:56:32I think I'd better have my cry in privacy.
00:56:35Please go.
00:56:38I feel terribly weeping.
00:56:40I feel terribly weeping.
00:56:42you may have a good cry.
00:56:43You don't got anything, I tell you...
00:56:48You're crazy?
00:56:50Well, I'll...
00:56:52I'll wait.
00:56:53What's your business?
00:56:54Well it's none of your anyway.
00:56:55All right, my fine cockalore,
00:56:56and we'll see about that.
00:56:57Mr. Holmes, pass it over time.
00:56:59Mr. Holmes, I tell you.
00:57:00What's up...
00:57:01I'll wait.
00:57:03What's your business?
00:57:04Well, it's none of your anyway.
00:57:07All right, my fine cockalore,
00:57:08and we'll see about that.
00:57:10Mr. Holmes,
00:57:11Mr. Holmes told me to come here.
00:57:15What for?
00:57:17Because I know who's done the murder.
00:57:23See?
00:57:24Oh, do you?
00:57:25Yes.
00:57:26And I've come here for the reward, see?
00:57:32Of course, if we ain't here, well, then I'll go.
00:57:36No, you won't.
00:57:37You stay here.
00:57:38Oh, who are you?
00:57:42Detective Inspector Athelney Jones, Scotland Yard.
00:57:45Well, why ain't you wearing your hat in the house?
00:57:52Onions.
00:57:53Getting fresh, are you?
00:57:54If you know anything, you'll stay here until I get it out of you.
00:57:57That's a nice way to treat a person, I don't think.
00:58:08Try the other way, my dear Jones.
00:58:11The lock is reversed.
00:58:13Ah!
00:58:14Gross.
00:58:15Oh, Mr. Holmes.
00:58:16What a turn you give me.
00:58:18Whiskey and soda, Mrs. Hudson.
00:58:20Yes.
00:58:22Whatever have you been doing in that get-up?
00:58:25Attending a fancy-dressed ball.
00:58:27Pleasure before business, eh?
00:58:28I thought you took your detective work seriously.
00:58:31Well, this case is so simple, Jones.
00:58:33It hasn't required much thought.
00:58:34That's right.
00:58:35I've got the murderer in custody now.
00:58:37Ah, no doubt.
00:58:38Jones, by the way,
00:58:40I'm expecting some further developments tomorrow.
00:58:43I may need a lot of help.
00:58:45Will Scotland Yard stand by?
00:58:46At your service, Mr. Holmes.
00:58:48Always believe in encouraging you amateurs.
00:58:50Someday you really might find something.
00:58:52Who knows?
00:58:53Flatterer.
00:58:54Will you be at the examination of the prisoners tomorrow?
00:58:57No.
00:58:57The case couldn't be in better hands.
00:59:00That's what I like about you, Mr. Holmes.
00:59:02You appreciate me.
00:59:03Good night.
00:59:04Good night, Jones.
00:59:05Oh, I do hope Mr. Holmes' search will be successful.
00:59:14It's been awful cooped up here all day.
00:59:16Under guard like a prisoner.
00:59:19Waiting for something.
00:59:21Heaven knows what to happen.
00:59:23I've been doing a little detective work on my own.
00:59:26Unbeknown to Holmes, of course.
00:59:30Would you recognize that tattooed man again if you saw him?
00:59:33Yes, I'm sure of it.
00:59:34You know, the whole idea of a tattooed man, tattooing needles, native feet and so forth, sounds to me like a circus.
00:59:43Yes, to me too.
00:59:44Yes, to me too.
00:59:46Well, there's one just behind King's Cross.
00:59:48A fun fair, they call it.
00:59:50My cook was telling me about it.
00:59:53Would you risk going there with me?
00:59:54I'd go anywhere with you.
00:59:56I'd go anywhere with you.
00:59:57Besides, I don't think I'm in danger anymore.
00:59:59Well, we can leave the guard here in case they give us a visit.
01:00:02There's just a chance we might find something.
01:00:04And, oh, how I'd like to put it over on Holmes.
01:00:09Shall we go?
01:00:10Will you?
01:00:11I'll get my coat.
01:00:12I'll get my coat.
01:00:36Chester, it took ten long, painful years to make me the world's greatest human creature gathering.
01:00:43There are scenes on my body too terrible and shocking to its drive.
01:00:47Well, friends, any of these marvelous pictures you see on me?
01:00:50Professor Insight can duplicate on you in a few minutes.
01:00:52So you wouldn't rather have a lovely view of Mount Vestuvius in full eruption?
01:00:56Or lay like a diver on a white horse?
01:00:58No fear, it's only a sentimental bitter work I want.
01:01:03A broken heart, splitting two and bleeding a little.
01:01:09And with the initial B on one side for birth, that's my name.
01:01:16And on the other side, a S for Dolly.
01:01:20S for Dolly? You mean D for Dolly?
01:01:23No, S. Her name's Dolly, but I always called her Sugar.
01:01:32That is a sweet name, to be sure.
01:01:34Ladies and gentlemen, look how the deadly python that's a little tongue there!
01:01:39Fondles and caresses him!
01:01:41But it ain't love, it's fear! Why?
01:01:44Cause he bites over their heads!
01:01:47They've seen it done hundreds of times!
01:01:49And so could you!
01:01:51A tuppence! Look at him!
01:01:53I believe we've come to the right place.
01:01:54And that, if you mean?
01:01:55He looks like a murderer!
01:01:57Ahhhh!
01:01:59Look! There's a tattooed man!
01:02:02Mr. Lowdy is supposed to be a detective!
01:02:04All that puts his friends, you simply must see him!
01:02:06There's everything from trotus animals, Daniel and the lion's den,
01:02:10beautiful ladies, artist models, which seem to be breathing and moving about
01:02:14with the artistic appreciation of the men!
01:02:17That's the man who bought the flowers!
01:02:19I'm sure of it!
01:02:20That's a short description, too!
01:02:22Move up, those men! Move up, those men!
01:02:24Have a look at this!
01:02:25Have a basin full of this here, men!
01:02:27The tuppence more!
01:02:29You need to see the old figure and the old marvellous shows!
01:02:33Well, who's coming inside, ladies?
01:02:35Who's coming inside?
01:02:37Come on, let's telephone home!
01:02:39Just a minute, Prince!
01:02:41I'll get everything prepared for you!
01:02:48Professor!
01:02:49What's that?
01:02:50Off the boat, Doctor!
01:02:55That girl from the florist shop!
01:02:57I've just seen her!
01:02:58With a friend!
01:02:59Are you sure?
01:03:00Yes, and she noticed if she knew me!
01:03:02Give her a drink a bit!
01:03:03Give her!
01:03:06Sorry, Bert!
01:03:07Can't finish your art today!
01:03:08Call again tomorrow!
01:03:09I'll do a nice wreath for you!
01:03:10For nothing!
01:03:11Thank you, Professor!
01:03:12You did it anyway!
01:03:16Hurry me, Liz!
01:03:25Look out!
01:03:26Slate's got loose!
01:03:38I'll get rid of him somehow!
01:03:39Come on!
01:03:40Give me that man!
01:03:41Quick!
01:03:44You too, Tonga!
01:03:45Come along!
01:03:46Ah, forget your snake!
01:03:47Come along!
01:03:48I'll buy you some more and start the medical!
01:03:49Come on!
01:03:57But, Mrs. Hudson, we simply must find him at once!
01:04:00Yes!
01:04:01Yes!
01:04:02Yes!
01:04:03We've got his man!
01:04:11Let's look right now!
01:04:12Housey, Housey!
01:04:13Mrs. Boston!
01:04:14Housey, Housey!
01:04:15Mrs. Boston!
01:04:16Mary!
01:04:18Mary!
01:04:19Mary!
01:04:23You can't do that!
01:04:24I can't!
01:04:25You don't call those coppers round here!
01:04:26Look here!
01:04:27Let's go before I...
01:04:28Don't worry, Watson!
01:04:30I don't want the police here yet!
01:04:31Thank heavens you've come!
01:04:32Mary!
01:04:33She's disappeared!
01:04:34She's gone!
01:04:35What?
01:04:36What?
01:04:37You don't say you've been fool enough to bring her here!
01:04:38Yes!
01:04:39Then Small's got her!
01:04:40What?
01:04:41They're on their way to Mordecai Smith!
01:04:42We need help!
01:04:43Bring up Scotland Yard!
01:04:44I'll take a quick look around!
01:04:47Now, see what's happening!
01:04:48We've been a little closer around!
01:04:49Somebody's found out in that office!
01:04:50Keep her hands off her!
01:04:51I was looking for the pearls!
01:04:52She's got them on her somewhere, all right!
01:04:54We'll search her for them when we get to the boat!
01:04:56If she hasn't,
01:04:58I shall never see them again!
01:05:00That's up!
01:05:01Go on, Fred!
01:05:02Faster!
01:05:06Ah!
01:05:07Keep up!
01:05:09We're going into the river!
01:05:10Goodbye!
01:05:11I won't be gone!
01:05:12Let's get to Texas!
01:05:14There's thousands of places in London!
01:05:15How do you know they've chosen Mordecai Smith?
01:05:17I'm certain of it!
01:05:18What if they get away in a fast boat before we can catch them?
01:05:20Well, I've engaged the pastor one this morning, the florist bee!
01:05:22How do you know it, Tar?
01:05:23Well, I know it!
01:05:24Don't ask me how I know it, Watson!
01:05:25Gee, what a colossal mistake you've made!
01:05:27I had those fellas, all of them!
01:05:28Right in my hand!
01:05:29I only had to discover where the jewels were!
01:05:31And then I could have made my captain!
01:05:33I'd throw my brains out of a fella doing any good!
01:05:35Well, there haven't been much use to you, old fella!
01:05:37I'd keep your head, you'll need it!
01:05:38And your fists, too, before we're through with this!
01:05:40Take what a call!
01:05:41Walk it down river!
01:05:42Come on, quick!
01:05:43You keep your mouth up!
01:05:44Come on, baby!
01:05:45You're always this down here!
01:05:46Come on!
01:05:47Come on!
01:05:48You keep your mouth up!
01:05:49Come on, baby!
01:05:50You're always this down here!
01:05:51Come on!
01:05:52Come on!
01:05:53Come on!
01:05:54You keep your mouth up!
01:05:55Come on, baby!
01:05:56You're always this down here!
01:05:57Come on!
01:05:58Come on!
01:05:59Come on!
01:06:00Come on!
01:06:09Come on!
01:06:10Come on!
01:06:11Come on!
01:06:12Commercial Street in two minutes more.
01:06:42Barrett! Barrett!
01:07:12Bidolens!
01:07:16Bidolens! Bidolens!
01:07:27Bidolens! Bidolens, please!
01:07:31That beautiful engine, Barrett!
01:07:34Police, pound the head!
01:07:38Police, come to head!
01:07:40The signal has to stop!
01:07:42I can't help with her! Go round her!
01:07:44They'll never catch this boat!
01:07:46No, but they'll kill us full of holes!
01:07:50I ain't gonna take a chance like that!
01:07:52You do it, I tell you!
01:07:54It's Crayley's warehouse.
01:07:56We'll dodge in there.
01:07:58It's all right. They're out of sight.
01:08:00Get on with it!
01:08:08Look! Look, they give us a slip!
01:08:12Mordecai knows this river like a book!
01:08:14So do I, Mr. Holmes.
01:08:16We'll follow in there.
01:08:18Now, there are two trap doors...
01:08:20...underneath the warehouse floor.
01:08:26So do I, Mr. Holmes.
01:08:28We'll follow in there.
01:08:30Now, there are two trap doors...
01:08:32...underneath the warehouse floor.
01:08:38Up there, Tonka!
01:09:06Come on. Where are those pearls?
01:09:08Come on. Where are they?
01:09:15There they are, my beauties.
01:09:16I've got Tonka place where you can do the most good.
01:09:18We're gonna fight for you if they find us.
01:09:20It's hanging if they catch us anyway.
01:09:22We've nothing to lose.
01:09:23No, but I have.
01:09:24We don't need you.
01:09:38Do I have...
01:09:53I know.
01:09:54I know.
01:11:04I've got tattoos.
01:11:06Small salute.
01:11:08Don't shoot.
01:11:09Don't shoot!
01:11:21Don't shoot!
01:11:22I'll give up.
01:11:23Wise man, Small.
01:11:39Orson, where are you?
01:11:41Ah.
01:11:42Where is Mary?
01:11:44We'll find her.
01:11:47Mary, Holmes, in here!
01:11:50Where?
01:11:51Where?
01:11:52Where is Mary?
01:11:53We'll find her.
01:12:01Mary, Holmes, in here!
01:12:04Where?
01:12:05Where?
01:12:06Where?
01:12:07Holmes, in here!
01:12:09Oh, Miss Morstan.
01:12:11Believe me, I'm never so thankful to see anyone in my life.
01:12:17You'll be all right.
01:12:18Perhaps you think I'm not glad to see you.
01:12:20Oh, Mr. Holmes.
01:12:21Yes?
01:12:22Small-headed satchel underneath that sack.
01:12:28Are you hurt?
01:12:29No, I'm all right.
01:12:31The treasure of Agra.
01:12:37Who's in there?
01:12:40Oh, Holmes.
01:12:41Ah, welcome, Jones, welcome.
01:12:43Listen, there's a one-legged man mixed up in this and a tattooed man, too.
01:12:46Oh, really? Really?
01:12:47Well, we've left them for you to have a look at.
01:12:49By the way, they left this satchel behind.
01:12:51It's probably of no value.
01:12:55No value?
01:12:56Why, it's full of sparklers.
01:12:58You amateurs always overlook the important things.
01:13:01Here's Mordecai Smith.
01:13:02Do you want him?
01:13:03What's he got to do with it?
01:13:05I want to know where the pearls are.
01:13:07Yes, where are they?
01:13:08Small's taken them.
01:13:10Then they're at the bottom of the river, where we can find them.
01:13:12Because now you'll be so terribly wretched.
01:13:14I can't even claim you as a friend.
01:13:16Much less ask you.
01:13:17What?
01:13:18Sorry the jewels are distasteful to you, Miss Morstan,
01:13:20because I have the pearls.
01:13:22I took them from Jonathan Small when we first came to grips.
01:13:25I didn't want them to get wet.
01:13:27So I'm afraid you'll have to have them back.
01:13:29Amazing.
