164
00:10:35,560 --> 00:10:36,880
We should be
out of this, Mary.

165

Don't mind us,
we're just looking

181
00:11:48,120 --> 00:11:49,520
for a place to have
a private argument.

182
00:11:49,600 --> 00:11:51,193
It should take
some 20 minutes or so...

183
00:11:51,280 --> 00:11:52,270
at which point we will both

184

Hercule Poirot, this is...

197
00:12:14,640 --> 00:12:15,630
- A prostitute.
- She is.

198
00:12:15,800 --> 00:12:18,440
I am. Bouc, you did not tell
me you had famous friends.

199
00:12:18,520 --> 00:12:19,510
BOUC: We're friends because

200
00:12:19,600 --> 00:12:20,590
I'm the only person
who never asks him...

201
00:12:20,680 --> 00:12:23,354
any questions about his cases,
because I don't care.

202
00:12:23,520 --> 00:12:25,239
And he never judges me
for being a terrible person.

203
00:12:25,320 --> 00:12:26,356
Indeed you are.

204
00:12:26,440 --> 00:12:29,080
<i>Madame,</i> Bouc, please join
me for a drink, yes?

205
00:12:29,240 --> 00:12:30,640
You only have me
for an hour.

to stay onboard

Are you a prostitute as well?

Certainly not.

You are from

- I am, sir.
- It is the Kassner case.

Why, yes.

224
00:12:58,440 --> 00:13:00,238
I was correct
in certain predictions?

225
00:13:00,720 --> 00:13:02,313
Quite.

226
00:13:02,680 --> 00:13:04,000
I do not need
to read the telegram.

BOUC: Oh, how fun.

228
00:13:05,280 --> 00:13:06,760
Did someone cheat, or die?

00:13:06,920 --> 00:13:08,434
POIROT: Unfortunately, both.

230
00:13:11,080 --> 00:13:12,400
Someone has...

231
00:13:12,600 --> 00:13:15,195
interrupted my
longing for rest.

232
00:13:15,360 --> 00:13:17,670
It appears that I must travel
with you tonight, Bouc.

233
00:13:17,840 --> 00:13:19,752
Can you find me a cabin
on the Orient Express?

I may not be good for much,
but I sure as hell

Hey, how you doing?
Would you mind...

486
00:27:47,920 --> 00:27:49,354
if I joined you?

487
00:27:50,600 --> 00:27:52,796
Dessert is an indulgence...

488
00:27:52,960 --> 00:27:56,920
and I feel kinda silly
and stupid indulging alone.

489
00:27:57,080 --> 00:27:59,549
I am at my happiest alone.

490
00:28:00,280 --> 00:28:01,475
But...

491
00:28:01,640 --> 00:28:04,439
for a small piece
of your fragelité,

492
00:28:04,520 --> 00:28:05,590
please join me.

493
00:28:05,760 --> 00:28:09,197
Oh, with pleasure.
Excuse me, another fork?

494
00:28:11,880 --> 00:28:13,837
I've been trying to make
your acquaintance, Mr. Poirot.

495
00:28:13,960 --> 00:28:14,950
<i>Merci.</i>

496
00:28:15,600 --> 00:28:19,389
I never ever sat so close
to fame before.

No, I tell a lie.

498
00:28:21,800 --> 00:28:24,634
Once, I was on a bus
with Ty Cobb.

499
00:28:26,120 --> 00:28:28,430
- Ball player, Detroit.
- Ah.

500
00:28:30,960 --> 00:28:33,953
Would you mind if I have the
little curly bit at the top?

501
00:28:34,120 --> 00:28:36,396
You're an odd bird there.

502
00:28:37,440 --> 00:28:39,636
You're a strange,
peculiar man.

503
00:28:39,800 --> 00:28:40,870
I am of an age

504
00:28:40,960 --> 00:28:42,917
where I know what I like
and what I do not like.

505
00:28:43,080 --> 00:28:45,959
What I like,
I enjoy enormously.

506
00:28:46,120 --> 00:28:48,476
What I dislike,
I cannot abide.

507
00:28:48,640 --> 00:28:51,155
For instance,
the temporary pleasantries

508
00:28:51,280 --> 00:28:54,000
before what is determined
to be a business discussion.

509
00:28:54,640 --> 00:28:56,120
You're fun.

510
00:28:57,440 --> 00:28:58,476
All right.

511
00:28:59,600 --> 00:29:01,831
I would like
to offer you a job.

514
00:29:07,160 --> 00:29:08,480
And you are an innocent?

515
00:29:08,680 --> 00:29:10,273
I'm a businessman.

516
00:29:10,440 --> 00:29:15,276
I'm an art dealer.
I mean, I'm new to it.

517
00:29:15,480 --> 00:29:18,279
But my beginner's luck
has panned out.

518
00:29:19,160 --> 00:29:20,753
Relics, antiquities.

519
00:29:20,920 --> 00:29:24,118
Rugs, weird. Orientals.

520
00:29:25,080 --> 00:29:29,518
I'm new to the game,
so I got the amateur eyeball.

521
00:29:29,680 --> 00:29:33,515
But I got a little problem
with these, uh...

522
00:29:33,680 --> 00:29:35,751
so-called appraisers.

523
00:29:35,960 --> 00:29:37,872
You can't trust
a one of 'em.

524
00:29:40,160 --> 00:29:41,992
Some of my customers...

525
00:29:43,040 --> 00:29:44,190
they buy a piece...

526
00:29:44,360 --> 00:29:48,479
they find out that they're
not exactly original...

527
00:29:48,680 --> 00:29:50,034
which is hardly my fault...

528
00:29:50,200 --> 00:29:53,876
if a Kashan silk scarf
is a fake.

529
00:29:54,040 --> 00:29:55,110
Right? Huh?

530
00:29:55,280 --> 00:29:56,509
<i>C'est bon.</i>

531
00:29:58,880 --> 00:30:01,395
But I've managed to make
a few enemies, is the thing.

532
00:30:01,560 --> 00:30:04,712
I got a few letters,
people making threats.

533
00:30:05,720 --> 00:30:08,360
I think, most likely,
it's the Italians.

534
00:30:08,960 --> 00:30:12,954
I sold them a set of
Oriental carpets in Milan.

535
00:30:14,240 --> 00:30:18,075
And the buyers weren't
so happy with the provenance.

536
00:30:19,320 --> 00:30:22,233
And they want their money back
with interest, you know?

537
00:30:22,320 --> 00:30:23,310
Italians.

538
00:30:24,040 --> 00:30:25,394
A guinea's a guinea.

539
00:30:26,400 --> 00:30:29,996
And then comes along

540

Here's what I'd like to do.

544
00:30:40,000 --> 00:30:43,038
I would like to hire you
to watch my back...

545
00:30:43,200 --> 00:30:45,271

546
00:30:46,520 --> 00:30:48,751
It's easy money for you.

547
00:30:48,920 --> 00:30:50,752
And it's peace of mind
for me, you know?

548
00:30:50,920 --> 00:30:52,593
- I understand.
- Good.

549
00:30:52,760 --> 00:30:53,750
I refuse.

550
00:30:53,840 --> 00:30:55,877
I'm sorry? That's bad.

551
00:30:57,120 --> 00:31:00,352
Maybe I didn't make
myself clear enough.

552
00:31:00,520 --> 00:31:04,514
You see,
someone's out to get me.

guy born, not by a long shot.

just like you.

We could die
of exposure trying.

647
00:37:03,840 --> 00:37:05,752

my loss of time, Mr. Bouc.

accountable for the weather.

652

Of course I can.

You look up the antecedents
of the passengers.

You establish
their bona fides.

Then you do what you do.
You... You... You...

and you eat your cake...

while we sit here in the snow?

Without constant

00:40:24,720 --> 00:40:26,120
your little gray cells
will starve and die.

715

You think that is what I do?
I sit in a chair...

716
00:40:27,720 --> 00:40:28,710
and I have
a little piece of cake,

717
00:40:28,800 --> 00:40:29,950
and then I come up
with a great idea?

718
00:40:30,120 --> 00:40:31,474
- I don't know what you do.
- I have my Dickens.

722
00:40:36,640 --> 00:40:38,711
right or wrong,
and they will hang him.

723
00:40:38,880 --> 00:40:40,075
Most probably Mr. Marquez...

724
00:40:40,240 --> 00:40:42,391
for no other reason
than his name is Marquez.

Prohibition
wasn't to my taste...

805
00:44:16,920 --> 00:44:19,913

806

You were fond of him?

810
00:44:32,320 --> 00:44:34,710
I was fond of his money.

811
00:44:34,880 --> 00:44:35,996
Ratchett was crude...

812

814

MACQUEEN: <i>It must have been
just after 10:00.</i>

815
00:44:45,520 --> 00:44:47,591
He called me in to go
over our sales in Italy.

816

POIROT: Milan,
the sale of forgeries?

Yeah, yeah.

818
00:44:52,520 --> 00:44:55,160
He wanted to look over
the accounts.

819
00:44:55,320 --> 00:44:57,073
I had to translate
everything...

820
00:44:57,240 --> 00:44:58,276
as the contracts
were in French

821
00:44:58,360 --> 00:44:59,840
and he didn't speak a word.

822

<i>And when we stopped
at Vinkovci...</i>

823
00:45:02,200 --> 00:45:04,795
<i>I struck up a chat with
the colored doctor, Arbuthnot.</i>

824
00:45:04,960 --> 00:45:07,077

stretched our legs.</i>

When did your party end?

830
00:45:18,560 --> 00:45:21,359
He left just after 2:00.

831
00:45:21,520 --> 00:45:22,954
Did you know
of any specific enemies

832
00:45:23,040 --> 00:45:24,713
Ratchett might have had?

833
00:45:24,880 --> 00:45:26,234
Gosh.

834
00:45:26,400 --> 00:45:27,754
Pick a number.

835
00:45:27,920 --> 00:45:30,640
POIROT: He confided
he had been threatened?

836
00:45:30,800 --> 00:45:32,519
He got a couple
of nasty letters.

837
00:45:32,680 --> 00:45:35,991
I have them if you like.
Some, anyway.

838
00:45:36,160 --> 00:45:38,311
He tore up the rest.

839
00:45:39,440 --> 00:45:41,238
Threw them into the fire.

840

depends on the race.

854
00:46:26,880 --> 00:46:28,519
And he was doing so well.

855
00:46:28,720 --> 00:46:30,439
- You think it's MacQueen?
- Too early to say.

856
00:46:30,640 --> 00:46:31,676
I admit, I cannot see him

857
00:46:31,760 --> 00:46:33,035
stabbing a man twelve times
in a frenzy.

It is time we ask.

860

- Ask who?
- The victim.

861
00:47:14,120 --> 00:47:16,919
POIROT: He has
twelve stab wounds

862
00:47:17,000 --> 00:47:18,593
and, as Arbuthnot said,
they are patternless.

863
00:47:18,760 --> 00:47:19,910
If the doctor is guilty...

864
00:47:20,080 --> 00:47:21,400
he certainly did not
let it influence

865

BOUC: Hey, the watch.
Stopped at 1:15.

867
00:47:25,000 --> 00:47:26,673
Now that agrees with the
doctor on the time of death.

868
00:47:26,840 --> 00:47:28,797
POIROT: Hmm. It is possible,
yes. Certainly possible.

BOUC: I don't
quite understand.

at these two wounds...

873
00:47:34,800 --> 00:47:37,998
they are powerful and deep,
and yet there is little blood.

874
00:47:38,160 --> 00:47:40,755
But this was
a frenzied attack.

Lashing here and there.

876
00:47:42,680 --> 00:47:45,479
No pattern at all,
just extreme violence.

877
00:47:45,640 --> 00:47:47,359
And during all this,
our victim,

878
00:47:47,440 --> 00:47:49,511
vigorous and anxious
and full of coffee...

death without struggle...

to be perhaps genuine.

the accidental breadcrumb.

A charred fragment of a note.

00:51:43,400 --> 00:51:44,629
I woke up in the dark,
and I knew

963
00:51:44,720 --> 00:51:45,710
there was a man in my room.

964
00:51:46,480 --> 00:51:48,472
You are certain
it was a man?

965
00:51:49,080 --> 00:51:51,834
I know what it feels like
to have a man in my bedroom.

966
00:51:52,480 --> 00:51:55,314
I told your conductor,
and he wouldn't believe me.

967
00:51:55,480 --> 00:51:56,994
I said, "Check the
communication door

968
00:51:57,080 --> 00:51:58,230
"between my room
and Ratchett's.

969
00:51:58,400 --> 00:52:00,357
"He must have
left through there."

970
00:52:00,520 --> 00:52:03,240
Sure enough, it was unbolted.

971
00:52:03,800 --> 00:52:04,916
I know I locked it...

972
00:52:05,080 --> 00:52:07,037
after what Ratchett said.
(SIGHS)

973
00:52:07,200 --> 00:52:10,637
He made a rather
overt overture.

974
00:52:11,440 --> 00:52:12,760
POIROT: Have you perhaps...

975
00:52:12,920 --> 00:52:15,560
heard of
the Armstrong kidnapping?

976
00:52:16,800 --> 00:52:18,359
You couldn't avoid it.

977
00:52:18,520 --> 00:52:19,795
Morbid stuff.

978
00:52:19,960 --> 00:52:22,031
POIROT: The child's murderer,
Cassetti...

979
00:52:22,840 --> 00:52:24,672
died last night.

980
00:52:24,840 --> 00:52:27,230
Ratchett was the man.

981
00:52:28,160 --> 00:52:31,870
I told you, I knew he was
a rotten one. (GASPS)

982
00:52:33,360 --> 00:52:34,350
You do believe me...

983
00:52:34,520 --> 00:52:36,637
about the man in my room?

984
00:52:36,840 --> 00:52:38,877
I'm aware you think
I'm a silly woman.

985
00:52:39,040 --> 00:52:41,236
But I have proof it's true.

986
00:52:45,080 --> 00:52:46,116
BOUC: It is
from the uniform...

987
00:52:46,280 --> 00:52:47,794
of an Orient Express
conductor...

988
00:52:47,960 --> 00:52:49,030
but it might have
fallen from Michel's

989
00:52:49,120 --> 00:52:50,349
when he was in your room.

990
00:52:51,600 --> 00:52:52,716
I'm not missing any.

991
00:52:52,800 --> 00:52:53,790
MRS. HUBBARD: I found it

992
00:52:53,880 --> 00:52:54,950
at the foot of my bed,
on the cover...

993
00:52:55,120 --> 00:52:56,952
right where I slept.

994
00:52:57,120 --> 00:52:58,110
What do you call that?

995
00:52:58,320 --> 00:53:00,676
I call it evidence. Thank you
so much, Mrs. Hubbard.

996
00:53:06,360 --> 00:53:07,760
POIROT: Have you ever
been to America?

997
00:53:07,920 --> 00:53:09,479
Once.

998
00:53:09,640 --> 00:53:11,393
Years ago, briefly.

999
00:53:11,560 --> 00:53:13,313
For what purpose?

1000
00:53:13,480 --> 00:53:15,597
- To confirm a suspicion.
- Which was?

1001
00:53:15,760 --> 00:53:17,160
That I wouldn't like it.

1002
00:53:17,320 --> 00:53:18,993
I was offered
a post in Boston.

1003
00:53:19,160 --> 00:53:20,833
Saw Boston,
went straight back to London.

1004
00:53:21,000 --> 00:53:22,320
Is that where
Ratchett was from?

1005
00:53:22,400 --> 00:53:23,720
- Boston?
- I can't says I know.

1006
00:53:25,040 --> 00:53:26,235
It wouldn't be proper...

1007
00:53:26,720 --> 00:53:28,040
to ask.

1008
00:53:29,960 --> 00:53:30,950
Carry on.

1009
00:53:31,120 --> 00:53:32,520
I last saw...

1010
00:53:32,680 --> 00:53:35,912
Mr. Ratchett at nine o'clock.

1011
00:53:36,080 --> 00:53:40,154
I brought his coffee
and hung up his clothes.

1012
00:53:40,240 --> 00:53:42,072
(GROANING SOFTLY)

1013
00:53:44,680 --> 00:53:47,070
You have a toothache, I think.

1014
00:53:48,000 --> 00:53:50,071
I've got an extraction booked
in London this week.

1015
00:53:50,240 --> 00:53:53,756
Mr. Ratchett insisted on not
putting it off any longer.

1016
00:53:53,920 --> 00:53:55,115
He said
he was tired of hearing

1017
00:53:55,200 --> 00:53:56,270
my suppressed groans.

1018
00:53:56,440 --> 00:53:57,556
This sympathetic Ratchett...

1019
00:53:57,720 --> 00:54:00,280
was it his usual practice
to drink coffee at night?

1020
00:54:00,440 --> 00:54:04,719
Not at all. But he'd been
very agitated lately.

1021
00:54:04,880 --> 00:54:08,794
Said he wanted to stay alert,
especially so last night.

1022
00:54:08,960 --> 00:54:11,350
He found a letter
in his compartment.

1023
00:54:12,560 --> 00:54:14,552
RATCHETT: Please tell me
you didn't do this.

1024
00:54:14,720 --> 00:54:16,154
If I were to leave
something unpleasant

1025
00:54:16,240 --> 00:54:17,356
on your pillow, sir...

1026
00:54:17,560 --> 00:54:19,153
it would not be a letter.

1027
00:54:20,160 --> 00:54:21,594
Coffee.

1028
00:54:24,280 --> 00:54:25,475
POIROT: <i>Surely, such a...</i>

1029
00:54:25,880 --> 00:54:28,679
proper and precise valet...

1030
00:54:28,840 --> 00:54:30,752
would never speak
to his master as you did?

1031
00:54:31,760 --> 00:54:36,277
Unless he knew his career
was coming to a sudden...

1032
00:54:37,360 --> 00:54:38,760
end.

1033
00:54:40,360 --> 00:54:43,000
No mere toothache, I think.

1034
00:54:44,240 --> 00:54:45,310
The lungs?

1035
00:54:48,160 --> 00:54:49,719
The thyroid.

1036
00:54:50,440 --> 00:54:51,510
Spread now to stomach.

1037
00:54:51,640 --> 00:54:54,280
Same as got my father,
five years younger.

1038
00:54:56,040 --> 00:54:57,679
Months at best.

1039
00:54:59,400 --> 00:55:01,392
"Inoperable, I'm afraid,"
said the doctor.

1040
00:55:01,560 --> 00:55:04,553
And suddenly,
I wasn't... afraid.

1041
00:55:05,400 --> 00:55:08,438
I would only do what
I wanted from here on.

1042
00:55:08,600 --> 00:55:09,670
I speak my mind now.

1043
00:55:11,200 --> 00:55:12,395
The coffee.

1044
00:55:13,080 --> 00:55:15,037
It appears that his cup
was laced with barbital.

1045
00:55:15,120 --> 00:55:16,156
You, of course,
will tell me

1046
00:55:16,240 --> 00:55:17,230
that you did not
put it in there.

1047
00:55:17,360 --> 00:55:18,350
Of course I didn't.

1048
00:55:18,800 --> 00:55:19,995
When and from where

1049
00:55:20,080 --> 00:55:21,958
did you procure
the coffee and the cups?

1050
00:55:22,440 --> 00:55:23,760
In the kitchen, sir.

1051
00:55:23,960 --> 00:55:28,159
I ordered it at dinner to be
ready at 9:00, and so it was.

1052
00:55:28,320 --> 00:55:31,518
Anybody could have got
a hold of it before me.

1053
00:55:32,000 --> 00:55:33,229
<i>Merci.</i>

1054
00:55:39,200 --> 00:55:40,919
Mr. Masterman.

1055
00:55:41,320 --> 00:55:43,357
I'm sorry about the toothache.

1056
00:55:52,080 --> 00:55:53,275
<i>Merci.</i>

1057
00:55:53,440 --> 00:55:55,432
I love the little cakes.

1058
00:55:56,760 --> 00:55:59,195
So, Miss Pilar Estravados,
you are a missionary...

1059
00:55:59,360 --> 00:56:00,350
but you trained as a nurse

1060
00:56:00,440 --> 00:56:01,669
before you changed
professions, yes?

1061
00:56:02,640 --> 00:56:04,040
I owed it to God.

1062
00:56:04,200 --> 00:56:06,590
You owed Him a debt?

1063
00:56:07,920 --> 00:56:09,513
There were...

1064
00:56:11,240 --> 00:56:14,074
indulgent times in my life...

1065
00:56:15,000 --> 00:56:18,596
when I took more than I gave.

1066
00:56:18,760 --> 00:56:20,035
GERHARD: <i>Gerhard Hardman.</i>

1067
00:56:20,200 --> 00:56:22,874
Professor of engineering.

1068
00:56:23,040 --> 00:56:25,794
It is science
that will win back

1069
00:56:25,880 --> 00:56:27,599
for Germany her pride.

1070
00:56:27,760 --> 00:56:29,752
- Biniamino Marquez.
- BOUC: Mr. Marquez.

1071
00:56:29,920 --> 00:56:31,070
Listen, I wanna be clear

1072
00:56:31,200 --> 00:56:32,475
of any association
with the crime...

1073
00:56:32,640 --> 00:56:33,756
so please ask me anything.

1074
00:56:33,920 --> 00:56:36,230
Anything. I never lie anymore.

1075
00:56:36,400 --> 00:56:38,392
Did you leave your compartment
at all last night?

1076
00:56:38,560 --> 00:56:41,712
Only once, to get an aspirin.

1077
00:56:41,880 --> 00:56:44,440
Mrs. Hubbard offered me
something earlier.

1078
00:56:44,600 --> 00:56:46,557
I declined at first,
but when I couldn't rest...

1079
00:56:46,720 --> 00:56:48,393
I went to ask for it.

1080
00:56:48,560 --> 00:56:50,791
My conference is in Turin.

1081
00:56:50,960 --> 00:56:52,838
I am the only Austrian
to present,

1082
00:56:52,920 --> 00:56:54,673
which means without me...

1083
00:56:54,840 --> 00:56:56,911
the talks will
be substandard.

1084
00:56:57,080 --> 00:56:58,355
Then I escaped prison,

1085
00:56:58,440 --> 00:57:00,079
and I bribed myself
into the US...

1086
00:57:00,240 --> 00:57:02,675
where I swore never
to lie or steal again.

1087
00:57:02,840 --> 00:57:04,160
You see, my friends,
because when people

1088
00:57:04,240 --> 00:57:05,640
trust you, they buy more.

1089
00:57:05,800 --> 00:57:09,430
The Italians are cows.
The Spaniards, sheep.

1090
00:57:09,600 --> 00:57:11,432
The Belgians...

1091
00:57:13,040 --> 00:57:14,713
I come to my room,
which I share

1092
00:57:14,800 --> 00:57:17,679
with the unhappy
English butler.

1093
00:57:17,840 --> 00:57:20,196
A fish. He groans a lot.

1094
00:57:20,360 --> 00:57:23,273
But I'm sure he saw me sleep
all night until morning.

1095
00:57:23,960 --> 00:57:25,076
I should say...

1096
00:57:25,240 --> 00:57:27,835
in case it is relevant...

1097
00:57:28,000 --> 00:57:30,356
there was
an embarrassing moment.

1098
00:57:30,520 --> 00:57:32,557
When I went to see
Mrs. Hubbard...

1099
00:57:32,760 --> 00:57:34,592
first, I opened
the wrong door.

1100
00:57:35,440 --> 00:57:37,079
Oh, sorry.

1101
00:57:37,240 --> 00:57:38,390
POIROT: <i>What time was this?</i>

1102
00:57:38,600 --> 00:57:39,920
PILAR:
<i>That must have been about...</i>

1103
00:57:40,080 --> 00:57:41,355
Don't be sorry.

1104
00:57:42,320 --> 00:57:44,312
...twenty minutes to 11:00.

1105
00:57:45,160 --> 00:57:47,152
POIROT: This is interesting.

1106
00:57:47,320 --> 00:57:48,470
As far as it is known,

1107
00:57:48,560 --> 00:57:51,359
you are the last person
to see Ratchett alive.

1108
00:57:53,560 --> 00:57:55,074
- BOUC: Your business?
- Automobiles.

1109
00:57:55,280 --> 00:57:56,634
I have three showrooms.

1110
00:57:56,800 --> 00:57:59,918
I come to America
with nothing. And now...

1111
00:58:00,000 --> 00:58:00,990
POIROT:
If what you say is true,

1112
00:58:01,120 --> 00:58:02,110
Miss Debenham
will confirm it.

1113
00:58:02,200 --> 00:58:04,112
But it is true.

1114
00:58:04,280 --> 00:58:08,160
I would not lie.

1115
00:58:08,320 --> 00:58:09,993
May it be possible
that Miss Debenham

1116
00:58:10,080 --> 00:58:11,434
left your compartment
without you noticing?

1117
00:58:12,040 --> 00:58:14,635
No. I sleep very lightly.

1118
00:58:14,840 --> 00:58:17,833
The slightest sound
and I bolt upright.

1119
00:58:19,720 --> 00:58:21,712
I was surprised once.

1120
00:58:23,400 --> 00:58:25,278
Never again.

1121
00:58:25,480 --> 00:58:27,358

we have not checked.

Good. His first mistake.

1283
01:05:48,400 --> 01:05:51,438
And as the night
must follow the day...

<i>Pardon, mademoiselle.</i>

1285

No, it's not mine.

1286
01:05:59,960 --> 01:06:01,679
I told you of the conductor.
Why would I tell you

1287
01:06:01,760 --> 01:06:02,910
- if it was me?
- You would not...

1288
01:06:03,000 --> 01:06:05,117
which makes your compartment
the ideal choice to hide it.

<i>Voilà,</i> the button.

1290

And if a conductor's
uniform...

1291
01:06:09,520 --> 01:06:14,595
why not a conductor's passkey?

1292
01:06:14,760 --> 01:06:16,035
Now we know how the killer

You stole from him!

1327
01:08:09,640 --> 01:08:11,199
You thought
you would be found out.

1328

That is why you killed him!

Yeah.

1330
01:08:15,840 --> 01:08:19,277
Yeah, you're damn right
I stole from him.

Thousands.

1332
01:08:21,760 --> 01:08:24,480
I knew his money
wasn't honest.

1333
01:08:24,640 --> 01:08:27,872
What did it matter if I
skimmed some off the top?

1334
01:08:28,080 --> 01:08:30,993
But let me ask you a question.

1335
01:08:31,160 --> 01:08:34,915
Why would I slaughter
my cash cow?

1336
01:08:35,080 --> 01:08:36,309
I didn't do it.

1337
01:08:36,480 --> 01:08:37,914
- I didn't kill him!
- DR. ARBUTHNOT: He didn't.

1338
01:08:38,920 --> 01:08:40,070
He didn't.

1339
01:08:41,000 --> 01:08:42,719
I expect his alibi
revolves around me,

1340

drinking till
the early hours.

1341

Well, it's true.

1342
01:08:45,280 --> 01:08:46,999
I saw him having whiskey,
and remarked

1343
01:08:47,080 --> 01:08:48,958
on the lesser quality
of American liquor.

1344
01:08:49,120 --> 01:08:50,110
He offered me a tipple

1345
01:08:50,200 --> 01:08:51,714
to change my mind,
then another.

1346
01:08:52,320 --> 01:08:55,119
We got to arguing politics.
He had some...

1347
01:08:55,960 --> 01:08:57,519
tomfool opinions on Stalin

1348
01:08:57,600 --> 01:08:59,432
I had to correct. But the

A word, please, <i>monsieur.</i>

01:09:05,640 --> 01:09:07,518
You can confirm you were
with him all night?

1352
01:09:07,680 --> 01:09:09,751
We smoked and spoke
till nearly 2:00, yes.

Ah, such chums, him with
his cigarettes, and you...

1354
01:09:11,880 --> 01:09:14,270
Yes, you are the only man on

1355
01:09:14,440 --> 01:09:16,397
May I see your pipe
and your tobacco, please?

1356

Of course.

1357

And you, Dr. Arbuthnot,

1358
01:09:18,840 --> 01:09:21,400
were traveling from India,
I believe. Yes?

- You're interviewing me now?
- Mmm-hmm.

1360

Were you ever in
Ratchett's compartment

- before he was killed?
- Certainly not.

If you found that in the dead
man's cabin, look elsewhere.

1364
01:09:32,600 --> 01:09:33,795
I am a doctor, sir.

1365
01:09:33,920 --> 01:09:35,240
I heal people.
I do not hurt them.

About this, see,
you must have worked

very hard to
become a doctor.

1368

Not many of your race
are allowed the opportunity.

Middlesex Medical College
permits one per class.

1370
01:09:45,360 --> 01:09:47,352
I had the honor in '24.

1371
01:09:48,760 --> 01:09:51,275
I was a sniper in my tour.

1372
01:09:51,440 --> 01:09:53,033
A sharpshooter.

1373
01:09:53,200 --> 01:09:54,634

I take their generosity
as a debt.

1378
01:10:01,000 --> 01:10:03,151
Did you know
a Colonel Armstrong?

1379
01:10:03,320 --> 01:10:06,279
Might have known
two or three Armstrongs.

1380
01:10:06,440 --> 01:10:08,113
Tommy in the 60th...
Selby Armstrong...

No, I meant
Colonel John Armstrong.

1382
01:10:09,800 --> 01:10:10,995
He had an American wife,

1383
01:10:11,120 --> 01:10:14,272
and his child was
kidnapped and killed.

1384
01:10:14,560 --> 01:10:15,630
Oh.

1385
01:10:16,520 --> 01:10:17,510
Never came across the fellow.

1386

When did you first meet
Miss Debenham?

1387
01:10:19,960 --> 01:10:21,792
We met when we shared
the railway convoy car

1388
01:10:21,880 --> 01:10:23,030
from Kirkuk to Nissibin.

1389
01:10:23,200 --> 01:10:24,270
She claims otherwise,

1390
01:10:24,360 --> 01:10:26,477
and she has made herself
problematically suspicious.

<i>Excusez-moi.</i>

1392
01:10:27,800 --> 01:10:29,553
Mary is a lady.

1393
01:10:31,320 --> 01:10:32,959
Leave her out of this. I can
vouch for her character.

1394
01:10:33,160 --> 01:10:35,152
As you vouched
for MacQueen's time?

1395
01:10:38,520 --> 01:10:40,193
- You won't listen to reason.
- Never.

1396
01:10:42,000 --> 01:10:43,673
You are lucky.
The good doctor insists

1397
01:10:43,840 --> 01:10:45,513
he did not let you
out of his sight.

1398
01:10:45,720 --> 01:10:47,234
See? There.
Couldn't have done it.

1399
01:10:47,400 --> 01:10:48,470
Yes, you could.

1400
01:10:48,680 --> 01:10:50,478
Ratchett took a sleeping
draught each evening.

1401
01:10:50,680 --> 01:10:53,479
You could add barbital,
easily access that drug.

1402
01:10:53,680 --> 01:10:55,558
Do the same with one
of the doctor's many drinks...

1403
01:10:55,720 --> 01:10:57,074
and the chance
to kill him is clear.

1404
01:10:57,240 --> 01:10:58,230
Why would I do any of that?

your motive.

1406

POIROT: Perhaps I will
suggest a different one.

1407
01:11:01,840 --> 01:11:06,232
A different reason,
a more personal reason.

"A lawyer by education,
not by disposition."

1409
01:11:09,400 --> 01:11:12,393
Why did you pursue
the law, I wonder?

1410
01:11:13,600 --> 01:11:17,071
Was it to appease
a much loved,

1411
01:11:17,200 --> 01:11:19,476
but demanding father...

1412
01:11:20,480 --> 01:11:24,633
one who himself had made
a great success

1413
01:11:24,720 --> 01:11:26,074
in the same field...

1414
01:11:26,240 --> 01:11:30,234
and then lost his position?

1415
01:11:31,360 --> 01:11:34,478
There was a renowned
MacQueen, was there not?

1416
01:11:34,680 --> 01:11:38,230
The district attorney for
the state of New Jersey...

1417
01:11:38,400 --> 01:11:41,393
responsible
for the prosecution

1418
01:11:41,520 --> 01:11:43,671
of the Armstrong case.

1419
01:11:46,600 --> 01:11:48,990
They didn't have a suspect.

1420
01:11:50,000 --> 01:11:52,913
My dad was pressured
to go after

1421
01:11:53,040 --> 01:11:54,872
this poor French woman...

1422
01:11:55,080 --> 01:11:59,074
a maid with a weak alibi,
Susanne.

1423
01:12:00,840 --> 01:12:03,071
He hung his
whole case on her.

1424
01:12:04,240 --> 01:12:07,199
She killed herself.

1425
01:12:07,360 --> 01:12:10,034
She was innocent.

1426
01:12:10,200 --> 01:12:13,398
By the time the evidence
lead to Cassetti,

1427
01:12:13,520 --> 01:12:15,796
oh, he was long gone.

1428
01:12:17,080 --> 01:12:19,754
They tore my old man apart.

1429
01:12:22,240 --> 01:12:24,232
I couldn't do anything
for him.

1430
01:12:24,440 --> 01:12:25,669
POIROT: And yet you claim

1431
01:12:25,760 --> 01:12:27,752
that you did not know
Ratchett was Cassetti?

1432
01:12:27,920 --> 01:12:29,559
No, no.

1433
01:12:29,720 --> 01:12:30,915
POIROT: But you found him.

1434
01:12:31,040 --> 01:12:31,996
No.

1435
01:12:32,080 --> 01:12:33,070
POIROT: You found him.

1436
01:12:33,240 --> 01:12:34,230

an eleventh question

you don't know to ask yet...

1653
01:23:32,040 --> 01:23:34,236
that will give you
the answer to the rest.

1654
01:23:34,440 --> 01:23:35,715
Perhaps.

1655
01:23:36,920 --> 01:23:40,834
I could point an easy finger
at the, uh, Countess Andrenyi.

1656

I discovered she was
Sonia Armstrong's sister.

- Are you certain?
- Yes.

1658

I suspect she may
perhaps be innocent.

1659
01:23:47,000 --> 01:23:48,354
Perhaps.

1660
01:23:48,520 --> 01:23:49,920
But so many people
have lied to me

1661

on this train
and do not seem to mind.

1662
01:23:51,320 --> 01:23:52,674
You yourself did
so effortlessly.

1663
01:23:52,760 --> 01:23:53,750
Me?

1664
01:23:53,960 --> 01:23:55,633
You told me you had
never been to America.

1665
01:23:55,840 --> 01:23:57,035
You also concealed the fact

1666
01:23:57,120 --> 01:23:58,156
that at the time
of the tragedy...

1667
01:23:58,320 --> 01:24:00,357
you were living
in the Armstrong household...

as governess
to their daughter.

would engage me.

1673
01:24:09,080 --> 01:24:11,800
Miss Debenham,
you planned Ratchett's murder.

1674
01:24:11,960 --> 01:24:14,031
And then you sent for
the countess to witness it.

1675
01:24:14,200 --> 01:24:15,680
If she saw him dead,

the Helena you knew
might return.

1677
01:24:17,440 --> 01:24:19,557
You waited for your roommate
to sleep, but she did not.

1678
01:24:19,720 --> 01:24:20,710
You drugged her.

1679
01:24:20,800 --> 01:24:21,995
But the barbital only
gave her a headache.

1680

She begged for an aspirin
when the train stopped,

when the conductor was
on the station...

when the coast
was clear at last...

1683

unseen.

You loved Daisy Armstrong.
You killed Cassetti.

1686

Cassetti was a pig.

1687

01:24:51,240 --> 01:24:52,879

Mary, go.

1692
01:24:59,960 --> 01:25:01,599
I can't let you
take the blame...

1693
01:25:01,760 --> 01:25:03,194

1698

He believed in me.

1699
01:25:21,720 --> 01:25:25,111
He sent me to medical school,
gave me a future.

1700
01:25:26,320 --> 01:25:28,630
Cassetti destroyed him.

1701
01:25:30,840 --> 01:25:32,991
In grief, I found Mary.

1702
01:25:34,680 --> 01:25:36,637
Then I found Ratchett.

1703
01:25:38,440 --> 01:25:40,511
Our plan was to reveal him
to the police,

1704
01:25:40,600 --> 01:25:42,717
that's what you heard.

1705
01:25:43,720 --> 01:25:46,315
But when I saw his face...

1706
01:25:48,240 --> 01:25:50,471
I knew he didn't
deserve a trial.

(STAMMERS)
So, you drugged MacQueen.

1708
01:25:54,360 --> 01:25:56,431
You changed the time
on the watch...

1709
01:25:56,600 --> 01:25:59,559
so that you could lie
about the time of death.

1710
01:25:59,720 --> 01:26:02,155
I couldn't let Mary
be accused.

1711
01:26:02,320 --> 01:26:03,595
Or MacQueen.

1712

to pay for, alone.

1713

I'm a soldier.

1714
01:26:10,960 --> 01:26:12,519
A soldier kills to protect.

1715
01:26:13,560 --> 01:26:14,914

until I tell you to return.

1728

You tell your lies...

1729
01:27:27,720 --> 01:27:29,916
and you think
no one will know.

1730
01:27:30,680 --> 01:27:33,149
But there are two people
who will know.

1731
01:27:33,640 --> 01:27:35,438
Yes, two people.

1732
01:27:36,320 --> 01:27:37,800
Your God...

1733
01:27:39,000 --> 01:27:41,356
and Hercule Poirot.

1734
01:27:45,160 --> 01:27:48,358
It is time to solve this case.

1735
01:28:09,400 --> 01:28:13,314
Dr. Arbuthnot asked me
why I was not yet dead.

1736
01:28:14,440 --> 01:28:16,796
He knew, of course,
the answer.

1737
01:28:17,320 --> 01:28:20,040
A sharpshooter who does not
kill at close range?

1738
01:28:21,800 --> 01:28:24,998
Your shot was not a mistake.
It was a surgery.

1739
01:28:25,640 --> 01:28:28,439
You could not kill me
because you are no killer.

1740
01:28:29,840 --> 01:28:32,036
None of you are killers.

1741
01:28:33,000 --> 01:28:35,515
And yet, someone must be.

1742
01:28:38,400 --> 01:28:40,835
There are two possible
solutions to this crime.

1743
01:28:42,440 --> 01:28:43,874
One difficult,
because it fits with most

1744
01:28:43,960 --> 01:28:45,110
but not all of the facts...

1745
01:28:45,280 --> 01:28:47,033
and one more...

1746
01:28:47,200 --> 01:28:48,873
complex.

1747
01:28:49,840 --> 01:28:51,832
The first solution.

1748
01:28:52,000 --> 01:28:53,719
Ratchett had enemies.

1749
01:28:53,880 --> 01:28:56,839
A rogue Mafioso steals
onto the train at Vinkovci...

1750
01:28:56,920 --> 01:28:59,230
as MacQueen
and Arbuthnot take the air.

1751
01:28:59,400 --> 01:29:00,754
Equipped with a uniform

1752
01:29:00,840 --> 01:29:02,433
and a passkey,
he stabs Ratchett.

1753
01:29:02,600 --> 01:29:04,557
He leaves through
Mrs. Hubbard's compartment,

1754
01:29:04,640 --> 01:29:05,790
and makes his escape.

1755
01:29:06,080 --> 01:29:07,070
No.

1756
01:29:07,760 --> 01:29:10,639
No, no, no. It doesn't work.

1757
01:29:11,320 --> 01:29:13,232
Why hide the uniform, hmm?

1758
01:29:13,720 --> 01:29:15,313
Who drugs Ratchett?

1759
01:29:15,480 --> 01:29:17,517
Or stabs Mrs. Hubbard?

1760
01:29:17,960 --> 01:29:19,633
Damn it, man!

1761
01:29:20,800 --> 01:29:23,440
So I ask,
who stands to benefit?

1762
01:29:23,960 --> 01:29:27,715
This crime is the murdering
of a murderer.

1763
01:29:28,280 --> 01:29:30,636
The benefit is, perhaps...

1764
01:29:31,120 --> 01:29:34,557
to the spirit,
an ease of suffering.

1765
01:29:35,640 --> 01:29:37,950
To quiet a shouting voice

1766
01:29:38,040 --> 01:29:40,191
in the head
that prevents sleep.

1767
01:29:46,640 --> 01:29:49,030
There is a murderer among us.

1768
01:29:50,480 --> 01:29:51,470
So...

1769
01:29:52,920 --> 01:29:54,070
We have Dr. Arbuthnot,

1770
01:29:54,200 --> 01:29:56,590
a dedicated, grateful friend
to Colonel Armstrong.

1771
01:29:57,960 --> 01:29:59,314
He meets and finds solace

1772
01:29:59,400 --> 01:30:01,198
in the company of the
governess, Mary Debenham...

1773
01:30:01,360 --> 01:30:04,080
who is almost like a mother
to the little girl.

1774
01:30:04,240 --> 01:30:08,996
And so close to
Mrs. Armstrong's young sister,

1775
01:30:09,160 --> 01:30:11,072
Helena Goldenberg...

1776
01:30:11,240 --> 01:30:13,709
married to a powerful man

1777
01:30:13,800 --> 01:30:16,076
no stranger
to rage and violence.

1778
01:30:16,520 --> 01:30:20,275
We travel also
with Daisy's godmother...

1779
01:30:20,440 --> 01:30:23,274
to whom belongs...

1780
01:30:23,480 --> 01:30:25,312
the monogrammed handkerchief

1781
01:30:25,440 --> 01:30:28,638
found at the scene
of the crime.

1782
01:30:28,800 --> 01:30:31,838
The letter "H"
in the Russian alphabet,

1783
01:30:31,920 --> 01:30:34,480
of course, pronounced "N."

1784
01:30:35,400 --> 01:30:37,835
Natalia Dragomiroff.

1785
01:30:38,000 --> 01:30:40,640
And her devoted maid
with a chef's eye?

1786
01:30:40,800 --> 01:30:42,234
Who was she before
her current employ?

1787
01:30:42,320 --> 01:30:44,471
Might I suggest
the Armstrongs' cook?

1788
01:30:45,440 --> 01:30:48,558
But we are not yet done.

1789
01:30:49,040 --> 01:30:50,838
The nurse
in charge of Daisy...

1790
01:30:51,000 --> 01:30:52,593
her newfound religious zeal

1791
01:30:52,680 --> 01:30:54,319
born of guilt
at allowing her charge...

1792
01:30:54,480 --> 01:30:56,437
to be abducted.
It was you, was it not...

a glass of wine too many

01:31:02,560 --> 01:31:03,630
with your supper that night?

1798
01:31:03,800 --> 01:31:05,553
Have you blamed yourself
ever since...

1799
01:31:05,720 --> 01:31:07,279
for not being alert
to stop him?

1800
01:31:07,480 --> 01:31:10,200

but kindness...

MASTERMAN: No need
to divine with me, sir.

1805
01:31:21,560 --> 01:31:25,076
I was Colonel Armstrong's
batman in the war.

1806
01:31:25,840 --> 01:31:29,197
And afterwards,
his valet in New York.

1807
01:31:30,400 --> 01:31:33,154
As fine a man
as God ever made.

POIROT:
Would his chauffeur agree?

1809
01:31:35,520 --> 01:31:37,477
Was it a bank loan,
secured by Armstrong,

1810
01:31:37,560 --> 01:31:39,233
allows him to build
his automobile empire?

1811
01:31:39,400 --> 01:31:41,995
He's indebted for life.
Who else can we count?

1812
01:31:42,160 --> 01:31:43,719
What of
the Pinkerton detective,

1813
01:31:43,800 --> 01:31:44,995
once a police officer...

1814
01:31:45,160 --> 01:31:47,356
assigned to
the Armstrong case?

1815
01:31:47,560 --> 01:31:49,836
And he becomes attached
to someone,

1816
01:31:49,920 --> 01:31:52,799
for there is another,
uncelebrated victim.

1817
01:31:52,960 --> 01:31:54,633
You fell in love with the maid

1818
01:31:54,720 --> 01:31:56,791
before she was
falsely accused.

1819

1824
01:32:09,680 --> 01:32:12,752
Susanne was so gentle.

1825
01:32:12,960 --> 01:32:15,031
And she fell for me.

1826
01:32:15,880 --> 01:32:17,758
Old and already getting grey.

1827
01:32:17,840 --> 01:32:19,797
I told her
she could do better...

1828
01:32:22,000 --> 01:32:23,593
but there she was...

1829

on time for every date.

1830
01:32:28,840 --> 01:32:29,910
Why else is a train...

1831
01:32:30,080 --> 01:32:33,357
so full in the dead of winter?
Why the inconsistent wounds?

Why the abundance
of evidence? Why...?

1833

Why the conductor?

Only one soul can
claim to have lost

1839
01:33:00,200 --> 01:33:02,112
more than any of you.

1840
01:33:02,280 --> 01:33:05,159
The tragic Linda Arden...

1841
01:33:05,320 --> 01:33:07,391
mother of Sonia...

1842
01:33:07,600 --> 01:33:09,796
grandmother of Daisy.

1843
01:33:09,960 --> 01:33:12,111
Retired from the stage...

1844
01:33:12,720 --> 01:33:16,191
but for one final performance.

1845
01:33:37,240 --> 01:33:40,199
You're an awfully clever man.

1846
01:33:43,000 --> 01:33:46,391
A murder should
have one victim.

1847
01:33:46,560 --> 01:33:49,598
When Ratchett kills
Daisy Armstrong...

1848
01:33:49,760 --> 01:33:54,880

deformed, ended.

who among them is a killer?

Who takes up the knife?
The answer is...

1853

No single one of you
could have done it.

COUNTESS ANDRENYI: Don't.

1917
01:38:57,200 --> 01:38:59,954
I already died with Daisy.

You said your role
was to find justice.

1922
01:39:48,520 --> 01:39:50,910
What is justice here?

1923
01:39:53,800 --> 01:39:56,235
Sometimes, the law of man
is not enough.

1924
01:39:58,120 --> 01:40:00,237
Where does conscience lie?

1925
01:40:02,760 --> 01:40:05,559
Buried with Daisy.

POIROT: <i>My dear
Colonel Armstrong.</i>

1931
01:42:36,920 --> 01:42:40,072
<i>Finally, I can answer
your letter...</i>

1932
01:42:40,240 --> 01:42:43,278
<i>at least with the thoughts
in my head</i>

1933
01:42:43,400 --> 01:42:45,790
<i>and the feeling in my heart...</i>

1934
01:42:45,960 --> 01:42:49,397
<i>that somewhere,
you can hear me.</i>

1935
01:42:50,440 --> 01:42:51,874
<i>I have now discovered</i>

1936
01:42:51,960 --> 01:42:54,520
<i>the truth of the case,
and it is...</i>

1937
01:42:54,680 --> 01:42:57,320
<i>profoundly disturbing.</i>

1938
01:42:58,320 --> 01:43:01,836
<i>I have seen the fracture
of the human soul.</i>

1939
01:43:02,280 --> 01:43:07,309
<i>So many broken lives,
so much pain and anger...</i>

1940
01:43:07,480 --> 01:43:11,440
<i>giving way to the poison
of deep grief...</i>

1941
01:43:11,600 --> 01:43:15,037
<i>until one crime became many.</i>

1942
01:43:16,640 --> 01:43:18,711
<i>I have always wanted
to believe</i>

1943
01:43:18,800 --> 01:43:22,510
<i>that man is rational
and civilized.</i>

1944
01:43:22,680 --> 01:43:26,117
<i>My very existence depends
upon this hope...</i>

1945

<i>upon order and method

1946

I am asked...</i>

1947
01:43:36,480 --> 01:43:38,631
<i>to listen, instead...</i>

1948
01:43:39,480 --> 01:43:41,676
<i>to my heart.</i>

1949
01:43:47,680 --> 01:43:49,319
Ladies and gentlemen...

1950
01:43:50,840 --> 01:43:55,073
I have understood in this case
that the scales of justice...

1951
01:43:55,240 --> 01:43:57,994
cannot always be
evenly weighed.

1952
01:43:59,160 --> 01:44:01,550
And I must learn, for once...

1953
01:44:01,720 --> 01:44:04,872
to live with the imbalance.

1954
01:44:06,520 --> 01:44:08,876
There are no killers here.

1955
01:44:09,040 --> 01:44:12,397
Only people who deserve
a chance to heal.

1956
01:44:13,400 --> 01:44:14,720
The police have accepted

1957
01:44:14,840 --> 01:44:16,240
my first solution
to the crime...

1958
01:44:16,400 --> 01:44:19,518
the lone assassin
who made his escape.

1959
01:44:20,320 --> 01:44:24,030
I will leave the train here
to conclude formalities.

1960

You are all free to go.

1961
01:44:28,520 --> 01:44:31,354
And may you find
your peace with this.

1962
01:44:33,800 --> 01:44:35,519
May we all.

1963
01:44:51,200 --> 01:44:52,190
Hello.

1964
01:44:52,840 --> 01:44:55,435
I'm looking for
a Mr. Poirot.

1965
01:44:55,520 --> 01:44:57,273
He's needed
on a very urgent matter.

1966
01:44:57,360 --> 01:45:00,398
Ah. He is on holiday.

1967
01:45:02,840 --> 01:45:04,877
The, uh, Kassner case again?

1968
01:45:05,040 --> 01:45:07,509
No, sir, far worse.

1969
01:45:07,680 --> 01:45:09,558
I have to take him
to Egypt straight away.

1970
01:45:09,720 --> 01:45:13,396
There's been a murder, sir,
right on the bloody Nile.

1971
01:45:16,240 --> 01:45:18,118
Are you the detective?

1972
01:45:19,600 --> 01:45:20,829
Yes.

1973
01:45:22,920 --> 01:45:25,196
I am the detective.

1974
01:45:25,720 --> 01:45:28,076
Could you please
straighten your tie?

1975
01:45:31,920 --> 01:45:33,195
I will see you at the car.

1976
01:46:30,120 --> 01:46:31,474

1977
