02:10
02:15Allow me, mademoiselle.
02:22It is like an enormous birthday cake, is it not?
02:27So strange and so out of place in this beautiful neighborhood.
02:31Near the end of the last century, when it was being built,
02:33so many of the great artists, they lived here.
02:37Oh, yes.
02:38Renoir, Manet, Van Gogh, so many.
02:42It amuses me to imagine their dismay as they saw it being constructed.
02:46Well, actually, I think it's rather beautiful.
02:51You know, when they lived here, mademoiselle,
02:53Montmartre was just a village in the countryside.
02:57A strange church for a village, Nespot.
03:00However, for myself, I am very happy that it is no longer the countryside.
03:05I greatly prefer, under my feet, the paving stones.
03:09Excuse me.
03:11
03:21
03:26On demand, Mr Johnson.
03:29Paging, Mr Johnson.
03:32On demand, Mr Johnson.
03:35Paging, Mr Johnson.
03:37I'd much rather spend the afternoon shopping.
03:40There are so many gorgeous shops in Paris, it's quite absurd.
03:43We've already bought the tickets, darling.
03:45It is where we came, Sesame.
03:47Yes, Venetia, thank you. I do realize.
03:51But I didn't realize we'd spend the whole week watching tennis.
03:54For goodness' sake.
03:58Well, really.
04:00I do think Frenchmen are so rude, don't you, Venetia?
04:11Where's Madeleine?
04:14Madeleine?
04:22Fetch my cigarettes, will you?
04:24Yes, Lady, we'll bring them.
04:4640-30.
04:5640-30.
05:15CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
05:18Jeu, Monsieur Perry.
05:20CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
05:31Excusez-moi.
05:36Sorry.
05:43CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
05:51He was jolly good.
05:53Even you must have met Cecily.
05:55Who was?
05:57Fred Perry, darling. The English one.
06:00I wish I'd seen Perry at Wimbledon last year.
06:02They say he was marvellous.
06:04Well, let's hope he wins again in the final.
06:06Yes, that would be nice, wouldn't it?
06:11Hello.
06:13Hello.
06:15I felt I ought to apologise, in case my clapping deafened you.
06:19Oh, no, don't worry.
06:21Did you enjoy the game? Oh, yes.
06:23It's a wonderful tournament, isn't it?
06:25I'm Norman Gale.
06:27Jane Grey.
06:29Wasn't she a queen or something?
06:31Briefly. No relation, I'm afraid. I'm just an air stewardess.
06:34Well, I hope you're not flying back before the final.
06:36Oh, no, no, definitely not.
06:38I wouldn't miss it for anything.
06:40Good.
06:42Garçon.
06:46Garçon.
06:50Oh, for heaven's sake.
06:52Yes.
07:22Faites vos jeux, mesdames et messieurs.
07:24Faites vos jeux.
07:26Rien ne va plus.
07:28Faites vos jeux.
07:30Faites vos jeux, messieurs.
07:32Faites vos jeux.
07:38Quinze, noir.
07:41Faites vos jeux, mesdames et messieurs.
07:43Faites vos jeux.
07:47That was a lovely dinner. Thank you, Stephen.
07:49I hope you enjoyed it.
07:52You mustn't worry about Cecily not turning up.
07:55Really.
07:58There's probably a perfectly good reason.
08:01She's probably back at the hotel now.
08:05She's been worse than ever this week.
08:09It was marvellous that you could come with us, Venetia.
08:13I'm very good at being a friend of the family.
08:16It's my role in life, I think.
08:19Bonsoir, madame.
08:21Bonsoir, monsieur.
08:23Good evening.
08:49Madame Gisele, s'il vous plaît.
08:51La première.
09:19I will not tolerate it.
09:21Do you understand? I will not tolerate it!
09:49Hello, darling.
09:51Can't you sleep?
09:53It's three o'clock.
09:55Is it?
09:57Did you see her?
09:59Who?
10:01That woman.
10:05I might have paid her just a little visit, Stephen.
10:07On the other hand, I might not.
10:09I suppose you went to the casino, didn't you?
10:11No, I didn't.
10:13I didn't go to the casino.
10:15I might not.
10:17I suppose you went to the casino.
10:20I might have spent just a few francs, yes, Stephen.
10:23I must confess.
10:25I'm not helping any more, Cecily.
10:27I'm simply not.
10:29You'll just have to tell her.
10:31Oh, don't get so excited, darling.
10:45You and Venetia love riding around on horses.
10:48And I love smoking and drinking
10:51and losing money at the roulette table.
10:54So long as we all leave each other to our own devices,
10:57I don't see what the problem is.
11:06I'm going back to London in the morning.
11:12You missed the final.
11:14What will Venetia think?
11:45Ah, mademoiselle.
11:47I did not take you for an admirer of the avant-garde.
11:50Hello again.
11:51Hello.
11:58You must have been very busy.
12:00Yes, I was.
12:01I was.
12:02I was.
12:03I was.
12:04I was.
12:05I was.
12:06I was.
12:07I was.
12:08I was.
12:09I was.
12:10I was.
12:11I was.
12:12I was.
12:14You're a little baffled by what you see?
12:17Yes, I'm afraid I am, actually.
12:19Well, it's hardly surprising, mademoiselle.
12:21The Surrealists, you see, they free themselves from the demands of logic.
12:25They do not paint what we see before us,
12:27the real world, as we call it.
12:29No, no, no.
12:30No, they struggle to express the unconscious,
12:34the dream world.
12:36Though one cannot approach their work in a way that has logic.
12:40You have to experience it.
12:42Open your mind to it.
12:44That is all.
12:47Come, I will show you more.
12:52So, mademoiselle Gray,
12:55how does the world look
12:56now that the Surrealists have opened your mind to it?
13:01It's all looking a little strange now, actually.
13:03But I'm sure it's only temporary.
13:06It's been fascinating meeting you, Mr. Poirot.
13:08Ah, no, no, no, no.
13:09You are too kind.
13:10No, it has.
13:12But now there's a little bit of Paris I'd like to show you.
13:15Somewhere I'm almost sure you've never been.
13:18Oh, I've seen much of Paris, mademoiselle Gray.
13:20Do not be so sure.
13:33You are very clever, mademoiselle Gray,
13:34to attend for me your seat at such short notice.
13:39That's your seat there.
13:42Well, thank you.
13:43Thank you very much indeed.
13:45You are too kind.
13:46I'll see you later.
13:47Indeed. Au revoir.
13:48Au revoir.
13:51Excuse me.
13:52Pardon.
13:54Pardon.
13:59Pardon.
14:08I really don't know why you're staying, Cecily.
14:12Why didn't you go back with Stephen?
14:14Perhaps because even this is preferable
14:17to being stuck in the country with all that mud and horse manure.
14:20Oh, Queen, you must have known what he was like
14:22before you married him.
14:23One never knows what one's husband is like
14:26before one marries him.
14:28That's one of the problems with marriage.
14:43Are you sure you're not staying for other reasons?
14:46What do you mean?
14:48What about that actor friend of yours?
14:51Isn't he keen on tennis?
14:59Oh, de partout!
15:05Oh, de partout!
15:07Oh, de partout!
15:09Oh, de partout!
15:12Oh, de partout!
15:13Oh, de partout!
15:14Oh, de partout!
15:15Oh, de partout!
15:16Oh, de partout!
15:17Oh, de partout!
15:18Oh, de partout!
15:19Oh, de partout!
15:20Oh, de partout!
15:21Oh, de partout!
15:22Oh, de partout!
15:23Oh, de partout!
15:24Oh, de partout!
15:25Oh, de partout!
15:26Oh, de partout!
15:27Oh, de partout!
15:28Oh, de partout!
15:29Oh, de partout!
15:30Oh, de partout!
15:31Oh, de partout!
15:32Oh, de partout!
15:33Oh, de partout!
15:34Oh, de partout!
15:35Oh, de partout!
15:36Oh, de partout!
15:37Oh, de partout!
15:38Oh, de partout!
15:39Oh, de partout!
15:40Oh, de partout!
15:41Oh, de partout!
15:42Oh, de partout!
15:43Oh, de partout!
15:44It is interesting, is it not, how the British regard tennis as their own invention, and
15:48any tennis trophy is rightfully theirs, when the truth is, it was a French game originally.
15:54Jeux de paume.
15:56Eleventh century, I think.
15:57It was a jolly good game, wasn't it?
16:00And Perry absolutely thrashed von Krohn.
16:02Right, are you going to Wimbledon?
16:04For myself, I think not.
16:07For myself, I think not.
16:10Depends if I can get the time off.
16:12Me, too.
16:14More gas on!
16:17Gas on!
16:26You've had enough, Cicely.
16:37Ah!
16:50I have nothing for you. Nothing. Do you hear?
16:53Where's it gone?
16:54The cupboard is bare. No more money.
16:57Comprenez?
17:03Pardon.
17:07Sir!
17:30Good morning, sir. Welcome aboard.
17:33I hear Miss Gray will be travelling with us,
17:35ready to cater for our every need.
17:37How delightful. A little party.
17:40Ah, and there are two more to join us.
17:42Two more aficionados of the game of tennis.
17:45Oh, yes. Yes, I saw them yesterday. What a coincidence.
17:48No, no, no, no, Monsieur Gale. It is not a coincidence.
17:51You will go to Paris for the tennis. The tennis finishes, you go home.
17:54What could be more logical?
17:57Bonjour, monsieur. Le beau geste, s'il vous plaît.
18:08Au revoir, Alice.
18:10A bientôt.
18:12Au revoir, madame.
18:32Good morning, sir. Good morning.
18:34It'll be in here, sir, if you need anything.
18:36Thank you. Morning.
18:38Good morning. You're at the end, Mr Gare, on the right.
18:41Call me Norman, if you like.
18:43And you'll have a rug, if I may.
18:47Thank you. Your hat, sir.
18:49Thank you very much.
19:07This way, ladies.
19:10Lady Hawberry, Miss Kerr.
19:18Is everything all right, Mr DuPont? Yes.
19:20Would you like me to take your case for you? No, no.
19:23It contains valuable archaeological pieces.
19:26Equatorial African pipes, you see.
19:28For a lecture I'm giving to the British Archaeological Society.
19:31Really? How interesting. If you'll excuse me.
19:37This way, madame.
19:42Excuse me for asking, sir.
19:44But I couldn't help wondering.
19:46Would you by any chance be Mr Daniel Clancy, the detective writer?
19:49Yes, yes, indeed.
19:51I'd just like to say, sir, I'm a great admirer of your Wilbrahim Rice stories.
19:55He's so brilliant. A real genius.
19:57The way he can always work out who did it.
19:59Yes.
20:01I don't know how he does it normally.
20:03Yes.
20:05I don't know how he does it myself sometimes.
20:10Ow! My fingernail.
20:15Stuart!
20:27Stuart!
20:34What can I do for you, madame?
20:36Get me my maid. She's in the other compartment.
20:38Tell her to bring my dressing case.
20:41Yes, madame.
21:03Thank you, Madeleine. That'll be all.
21:33Thank you, madame.
22:03Thank you, madame.
22:33Are you all right, sir?
22:35No, I am not all right. Thank you. How can I be all right?
22:39Would you like something to drink, sir?
22:43No, thank you.
22:45Mon estomac.
23:03Mon estomac.
23:34Would you like some food?
23:36Yes, please.
24:03If you wouldn't mind, Cecily.
24:08Mm. My throat.
24:33Of course not, dear.
25:48Anything further, sir?
25:50No, thank you.
25:52More coffee, sir?
25:57Coffee, miss?
25:59Not many, I hope.
26:01More coffee, sir?
26:03No, thank you.
26:05No, thank you.
26:08Madame?
26:10More coffee, madame?
26:13Madame?
26:20Oh, God!
26:23Is there a doctor?
26:25What is it?
26:27Is anyone a doctor?
26:29I'm a dentist. If I may have any help.
26:31What is it? What has happened?
26:49I'm afraid she's dead.
26:53What is it, a fit?
26:56No.
26:58No, I think not. I got it.
27:02It's a wasp sting.
27:04I killed a wasp with my cup.
27:06Yes, I saw it, too.
27:10People do die of wasp stings.
27:13You must get back to your seats, please, gentlemen.
27:15We're about to land.
27:18Qu'est-ce que c'est que ça?
27:20Another wasp.
27:22Yes, it is very like a wasp.
27:27But it is not a wasp.
27:29Goodness, it's a dart.
27:32A native dart.
27:34South American, I think.
27:36You have seen one of these before, monsieur?
27:39Yes, yes, indeed.
27:41Better be careful.
27:44I'm afraid it's not a wasp.
27:46It's not a wasp.
27:48It's not a wasp.
27:51Better be careful.
27:53Yes, you are right.
27:55We must be very careful.
27:58Because unless I'm very much mistaken, mes amis...
28:03...the end is coated with poison.
28:20No.
28:33Monsieur?
28:40Excusez-moi.
28:51I'm extremely sorry, ladies and gentlemen.
28:54The police won't keep you very long.
28:56They'll let you go as soon as they've gone through your hand luggage.
29:00Excuse me, Mr Poirot?
29:02Yes.
29:04Would you mind stepping outside?
29:06Not at all.
29:13I knew there was something suspicious about him.
29:15Didn't you?
29:19Well, well. Seems you can't even fly on an aeroplane now...
29:23...without somebody getting murdered.
29:25I've been on to the chaureté in Paris.
29:28I spoke to a chap called Fournier.
29:30Inspector Fournier?
29:32No.
29:34I asked him to find out about the murdered woman...
29:36...but he knew all about her already.
29:38Her name's Giselle. Marie Giselle.
29:41A well-known name in Paris.
29:43And she's a murderer.
29:45Marie Giselle. A well-known moneylender.
29:48Specialised in lending to society people.
29:50Always kept an ear open for their latest scandals...
29:53...and then used them to blackmail them...
29:56...when they got behind with their payments.
29:58Anyway, what can you tell me?
30:01I gather you were sitting just a few yards from the scene of the crime.
30:04Unfortunately, Chief Inspector, at the time of the murder, I was asleep.
30:07Asleep? Really?
30:09Well, well.
30:11Still, I dare say you have a theory or two about who committed it.
30:15How could I possibly have a theory, Chief Inspector...
30:17...when I still do not fully comprehend what happened?
30:19A bit odd, though, don't you think?
30:21Death by poisoned doll on a British aeroplane.
30:24Bizarre, isn't the word?
30:30Jean Dupont.
30:35Large bull.
30:40In French.
30:44Cigarette holder.
30:46Ivory, I should say.
30:50Small notebook.
30:55Full of scribbled notes.
31:01Ornamental hollow tubes.
31:05African pipes, I think you will find.
31:08I was not asleep all of the time, Chief Inspector.
31:12I heard Monsieur Dupont tell it to the air stewardess, Mademoiselle Jane Grey.
31:17But Monsieur Dupont, he is an archaeologist.
31:20Call me what we're after.
31:22What exactly are you after, Chief Inspector?
31:25Well, the question I'm asking myself, Poirot...
31:27...is how did the dart get into the body?
31:30Ah.
31:32You refer, I assume, to the method used by the South American Indians...
31:35...who shoot the native thorns, such as was discovered by the body...
31:40...through the wooden tube, n'est-ce pas?
31:42Well, yes. But how do you know about South American Indians?
31:45Because I have talked to Monsieur Daniel Clancy.
31:49The well-known writer of the detective stories.
31:53And creator of the celebrated Gentleman Detective, Monsieur Wilbraham Rice.
31:58Non?
32:05Hello.
32:07Monsieur Clancy was one of the passengers on the aeroplane.
32:10He has researched into the subject for one of his books.
32:14Oh, has he?
32:16Oui. So he tells me.
32:20If you please, Chief Inspector, when you have finished...
32:23...could you let me have a copy of the list of the personal effects of each passenger?
32:26It would be of great interest to me.
32:28Why would that interest you? What are you looking for?
32:31I do not know.
32:33All I know is that I pursue the object...
32:36...that will hold the answer to a question that troubles me.
32:42But such are the dilemmas with which we daily struggle, are they not?
32:48Excuse me.
32:57Very helpful.
33:07Norman Gale. Strand Magazine.
33:15England's Glory Box of Matches. Empty.
33:20One white linen coat.
33:27Two dental mirrors.
33:31Dental rolls of cotton wool.
33:33Do you reckon he's a dentist by any chance?
33:39It's an unforgivable invasion of privacy.
33:42I demand to speak to my husband and my lawyer at once.
33:45It won't do any good, Cecily.
33:48It's perfectly normal procedure, I think you'll find.
33:51After all, the murder weapon might still be concealed in someone's bag or cage.
33:56Just take me to a telephone.
33:58This way, madam.
34:00Yes, ma'am.
34:02I'm sorry, sir, but nobody's allowed on the plane. Those are my orders.
34:05We need to get on board.
34:07I've strict instructions. I'm sorry.
34:09But we haven't cleared up in there. There's coffee cups. And goodness knows what.
34:12You won't let us on board.
34:14Oh, dear. Ridiculous. In all the time I've worked here...
34:16If you please, Monsieur Moutier.
34:18Will you excuse us, constable? One moment, if you please.
34:21I have a question, if you would be so good.
34:25Did either of you during the time you were on the plane...
34:28If you would be so good, did either of you during the flight see a wasp?
34:33A sort of squashed wasp, yes, sir.
34:35In the young Frenchman's saucer when I gave him more coffee.
34:37But did you see the wasp alive?
34:39Did either of you see the wasp flying around the cabin?
34:43No. No, I can't say I did.
34:45Nor did I.
34:47But surely it was the dart that killed the poor woman. Hasn't that been established?
34:50Almost certainly, yes, mademoiselle.
34:52Then why...
34:54Mademoiselle Gray, when was the last time you saw to be alive Madame Giselle?
34:58I suppose when I collected up the plates after the meal.
35:01She was alive when I poured her coffee.
35:04A few minutes later, that would be.
35:07Merci. Merci bien.
35:10Just one more question.
35:12Madame Giselle, had she ever flown with you before?
35:15I'd never seen her.
35:17But I've only been working here a few weeks.
35:19Ah, yes, of course. And you, monsieur?
35:21Well, yes. As a matter of fact, she flew with us quite often.
35:24She usually went on the first plane in the morning.
35:27The nine o'clock.
35:29This one sometimes gets busy, but there's always room at the nine o'clock.
35:32They've found something, Poirot. You'd better come along with me.
35:35Thank you very much.
35:45A wooden pipe, Poirot.
35:49So I see, Chief Inspector.
35:54Just what I was looking for.
35:56All we need to know now is how it got here.
35:59You see the markings?
36:02I think you will find...
36:05that it is South American.
36:09Just as is the dart.
36:21What's that you've got?
36:23I do not know.
36:27But I am sure...
36:29all will become clear.
36:36The wooden tube is rather beautiful, is it not, Chief Inspector?
36:39Quite frankly, Poirot, I don't much care whether it's beautiful or South American.
36:43At the moment, I'd just like to know who was sitting here.
36:48I was sitting here, Chief Inspector.
36:51Oh.
36:53Oh, well, that puts a different complexion on it, I suppose.
36:58Me no? Not at all.
37:03Check it for the fingerprints, if you please. I insist.
37:07I understand it is your duty as a policeman of Scotland Yard...
37:11to regard everyone as guilty until he is proven to be innocent.
37:14No, no, really...
37:15And I tell you, Chief Inspector,
37:17I regard it as my duty to clear my name of this inexcusable slur...
37:22as soon as possible.
37:32Stephen?
37:34I had to talk to you. I must warn you. Something awful's happened.
37:37There's been a murder.
37:41Yes, on the plane. That Giselle woman.
37:52Yes!
37:55We're under attack!
37:57We're under attack!
38:04Open the door! Police!
38:08Open the door right now!
38:12Lockdown!
38:15I'll take care of it.
38:19Open! Open!
38:22Open the door. Take her away at once.
38:32Inspector Fournier, this tea.
38:34Nice to meet you, Inspector.
38:53I demand to speak to the person in charge.
38:56Sorry, madam.
38:57Don't, madam me.
38:59Do you know who I am?
39:01What's going on?
39:04I think you were discouraged, Inspector,
39:06that it is Lady Holbury.
39:09So you say, but I'm afraid I have strict instructions.
39:12Look, I've told you, madam, you cannot...
39:14You lay a finger on me, I shall talk to your superior.
39:16This lady is...
39:17Are you a senior policeman here?
39:19Chief Inspector Jaff, yes.
39:21I'd like to talk to you on your own.
39:23I wish to complain.
39:25If you just go back to the lounge, please, madam,
39:27I shall be questioning everyone shortly.
39:29Chief Inspector Jaff,
39:31I think it would be better to talk to Lady Holbury now.
39:35She was sitting in the seat directly in front of mine.
39:38Oh, was she?
39:39Oui.
39:41Right.
39:43All right, constable.
39:47Have you ever seen this before, Lady Holbury?
39:50No, certainly not. Why?
39:52Lady Holbury, at any time during the flight,
39:55did you see anyone move to the rear of the plane?
39:57What's it got to do with you?
39:59Just answer the question, please.
40:04No.
40:07I was sitting facing the front.
40:09How could I? I never left my seat.
40:11But you were sitting facing the front.
40:13But I'm thinking about the last half hour in particular.
40:16Did you not notice anyone at all?
40:18No.
40:20Well, apart from the steward and stewardess,
40:22they were clearing the tables and then serving coffee.
40:24They passed by a few times.
40:26Did you see a wasp?
40:28A wasp? No.
40:30And did you know the murdered woman, Lady Holbury?
40:33No.
40:35No, I'd never seen her before.
40:44Just when I thought we were getting somewhere.
40:49There is something that troubles you, Chief Inspector?
40:51I've just heard from Fournier.
40:53They've only just dragged themselves round to Giselle's house.
40:56By the time they got there,
40:58a blast had made and destroyed all her papers.
41:00Ah.
41:02Then perhaps it was the lunchtime
41:04when you informed them what happened.
41:08I don't know.
41:10But he's very important in France, the lunchtime.
41:12But for the eating and afterwards the sleeping.
41:14Not for the catching of the criminals
41:16and the collecting of the evidence.
41:18Why do you need these papers, Chief Inspector?
41:21Because I think Lady Holbury knew Giselle.
41:24I could see it in her eyes.
41:26But I need proof.
41:28I told them it's a waste of time looking through our luggage.
41:30Just because they've let us go,
41:32it doesn't mean they don't suspect one of us.
41:34Exactly.
41:36All it means is they're going to find out.
41:38Excuse me, mademoiselle.
41:40That gentleman over there with the moustaches,
41:42can you tell me who he is?
41:44Yes, that's Hercule Poirot.
41:46He's the famous detective.
42:02Tell me,
42:04what's the matter?
42:06Tell me,
42:08did either of you see anyone pass by
42:10Madame Giselle during the flight?
42:12Yes, I did.
42:14I was handing out the meals.
42:16I saw Mr Clancy walk right by her.
42:18He was carrying a book.
42:20I assume he'd taken it from his bag or coat.
42:22He went straight back to his seat with it.
42:26Did he pause as he walked by?
42:28Or do anything in any way unusual?
42:30I don't think so.
42:32But I wasn't really concentrating on him.
42:34I'm still not used to the work.
42:36I was terrified of dropping the food.
42:38I see.
42:42And did either of you see anyone else get up?
42:44No.
42:46Well, actually I got up myself,
42:48but only to go to the toilet.
42:50Which is at the other end of the cabin.
42:52Yeah.
43:04Au revoir, Monsieur Gay.
43:06Au revoir.
43:12What an impressive house.
43:14Yes.
43:16I wish I could say it was mine,
43:18but I'm afraid it's my uncle's.
43:20The surgery's here too.
43:22We both work here.
43:24Well, goodbye.
43:26Goodbye.
43:28Goodbye.
43:30Goodbye.
43:32Goodbye.
43:34Goodbye.
43:36I was wondering, are you possibly free for dinner?
43:38Perhaps tomorrow night?
43:40Goodness.
43:42Well, how lovely.
43:44Yes.
43:46Yes? Good. I'll telephone you tomorrow.
44:02Are you thinking of Monsieur Gay, mademoiselle?
44:04No, actually.
44:06I was thinking of Mr. Dupont.
44:08Ah, the archaeologist.
44:12Why is it that you think of him?
44:14Well, because he came up and asked me who you were.
44:16It was a bit odd.
44:18That's all.
44:22And so you see,
44:24to Poirot, nobody is above suspicion.
44:26Well, I hope you don't think either of them killed the poor woman.
44:28Bon affair, mademoiselle.
44:30Either could have done it.
44:32Merci.
44:34Monsieur Gay,
44:36because he could have had access to the poison,
44:38he would have known the doctors.
44:40For him, it would be easy.
44:42And Monsieur Dupont, because he travels around the world
44:44visiting the places exotic,
44:46he could have purchased the poison and the diets.
44:48And of course, he killed the wasp.
44:50But I thought Madame Gisele was killed with the dart.
44:52Yes, you are right, mademoiselle.
44:54The wasp is not so much interesting
44:56as suggestive, I think.
45:00Mademoiselle Gray,
45:04would you be kind enough to help me?
45:30Salut.
45:42Thank you, mademoiselle.
46:22Good evening.
46:24Monsieur Poirot.
46:26Yes.
46:28Please.
46:44You see,
46:46my wife, well,
46:48in many ways, she's
46:50just not suited to the life I lead.
46:52It's a bit of a washout, really,
46:54our marriage.
46:56It's hardly my fault, I freely admit that.
46:58I fell for her, you see.
47:00Hook, line, and sinker.
47:02Well, she was an actress.
47:04You know what actresses are like.
47:06No.
47:08What are actresses like,
47:10Lord Horpré?
47:12Well, all things
47:14to all men, in my experience.
47:16I mean, she played the country lady
47:18a bit to perfection,
47:20until she got bored with her part.
47:22So why do you come to me now, Lord Horpré?
47:24Well, we've had the police round already.
47:26I don't know how they found out,
47:28but they discovered
47:30she knew the murdered woman.
47:32And do you believe that this could have been
47:34sufficient justification for her to kill her?
47:36No.
47:38As I said,
47:40we don't get on.
47:42We don't get on at all.
47:44But, God,
47:46I know what she's capable of.
47:48And she's not capable of murder.
47:50Never.
47:54Never.
