Transcript
00:00When this despicable band of thieves and murderers commit crimes at which they forbid my interference,
00:05they leave behind a signal.
00:06Or else Watson or Mrs. Hudson could well die.
00:09But you could go where I cannot.
00:12Columbine is worth a jewel box.
00:14Iron, then gems is worth a palace.
00:17Why kidnap Clara if you've already stolen her ransom?
00:19Please do not tell my parents.
00:21Don't tell your parents how you planned your own kidnapping and stole your mother's jewels.
00:25I am dealing with a vast criminal syndicate of unbridled region, even inside the police.
00:55They're bringing a right out, sir.
01:02Thank you, constable.
01:04Congratulations on your rapid apprehension of this coachman who kidnapped the American ambassador's daughter.
01:10With the jewels on his person, did the criminal confess?
01:12No, sir, but he'll eventually tell us all.
01:15Sent him off to Newgate.
01:17Ah, we kept the girl close.
01:19Oh, no.
01:21No, no, no, no, no.
01:22Oh, no.
01:23I'm not going anywhere with that man.
01:24Take me back to myself.
01:25Here, here.
01:26Young lady, be grateful you have a benevolent employer
01:29that's willing to be personally liable for your behavior.
01:33You sure she's worth the trouble, sir?
01:35Well, the girl has her faults, but domestics are very difficult to train,
01:39and I hate the thought of having to start all over again with someone new.
01:44I'm sure the girl will calm down once she returns to the kitchen.
01:47Usually works, sir.
01:51I'm going back to Baker Street.
01:52I'm getting my things, and I'm leaving.
01:54Very well.
01:55On your current heading, it'll take approximately 131 days to reach your destination,
02:01depending on the schedules of various trains and steamers
02:04and the probability of good weather in the South Java Sea.
02:09Are you saying that I'm going in the wrong direction?
02:11Not wrong.
02:11Merely eccentric.
02:13If you're open to a journey briefer than circumnavigating the globe,
02:16you could step into this cab with which I came to rescue you.
02:19Rescue me?
02:21I wouldn't need rescuing if you hadn't abandoned me.
02:24I didn't abandon you.
02:25I had to leave to prevent the police from recognizing you.
02:28Come along.
02:33Maybe the coffin factoring was meant to burn.
02:35Have you ever thought about that?
02:36What things do I get for Clara?
02:38I'm threatened, accused, arrested.
02:41As if you, and only you, can decide when a criminal is caught.
02:49Oh, to the front door.
02:50Oh, blow it out your bottom.
02:51God heavens.
02:55A message for you, sir.
02:56Oh, no, Halligan.
02:58You may pack your possessions, but you may not leave.
03:01You've been released into my custody.
03:02I will not spend another night in this house
03:05with your insufferable smugness.
03:16Key?
03:18The key?
03:20Oh, never mind.
03:22Excuse me, Mr. Holmes.
03:23It's an urgent message in need of a reply.
03:26Read it to me, then.
03:27A.A. Templeton, insurance code, NYUSA.
03:31Request to immediately engage your services
03:34locating jewels stolen from U.S. Ambassador London.
03:38Stop.
03:39Favourable terms, expenses, a £500 bonus
03:42if jewels recovered or claim rejected.
03:46Grateful for your prompt reply.
03:48Stop.
03:49Albert Templeton, president.
03:51My response to Mr. A. Templeton, regret must decline.
03:56Stop, present engagements preclude.
03:58Stop.
03:58Good help, hard to find.
04:00Stop.
04:06Amelia?
04:07Amelia, if you do not open this door at once,
04:10I will knock it down.
04:12Amelia?
04:14Amelia?
04:14Very well!
04:15Sir, a person of your station and reputation,
04:18should not drag a young scullery maid
04:20and throw her out into the street.
04:22I beg you, sir, let me do it.
04:25Mrs. Halligan, I have this completely under control.
04:29Consider your honour, sir.
04:30And I would urge you to consider the life of your sister,
04:33still the rightful owner of this house.
04:35Now, to rescue Mrs. Hudson and Dr. Watson,
04:38I would instantly trade my honour, my reputation,
04:41and my good fortune.
04:43And yours, too, if it came to it.
04:45Now, saving Mrs. Hudson's life requires me
04:47to enter this room.
04:48So if Amelia does not immediately open this door,
04:51I will knock it down.
04:53However ill-used you feel,
05:12I took you from the street when you had nowhere to go.
05:15So I employed you, I fed you,
05:18and you have repaid me for these kindnesses
05:21by refusing to follow my instructions
05:23in a manner that has put my closest friends beyond reach.
05:28Then why free me from the police, then?
05:30If I destroyed a plan that you never shared with me,
05:32I'm an ingrate?
05:33You say we're not related, that my mother is a liar?
05:36Well, you insist we are bound by blood,
05:39but first you can tell me how we are tied together by this.
05:47Why is this red thread so important to you?
05:49Because this is the signal I told you about.
05:52The signature of the criminal syndicate
05:55responsible for the kidnapping of my friends.
05:57A red thread which they leave tied to something
05:59at the scene of every crime
06:00they would forbid me to investigate.
06:04There is a red thread like this in Claire's room?
06:06Yes.
06:06And that's why you left?
06:08Yes.
06:09And you have another,
06:11which means you are either connected to the red thread
06:14or else you found it somewhere.
06:15Which is it?
06:17It involves my mother's murder.
06:19How?
06:21After all, this is a crime you have insisted
06:24I should help you solve.
06:26Well, now I am so disposed.
06:30Speak.
06:32Tell me everything.
06:33As I recall,
06:37you were absent during the attack,
06:39delivering designs for a parade flute to Los Angeles.
06:45Was anything missing on your return?
06:49I didn't notice right away.
06:51But they took several map cases
06:53filled with Mama's mechanical drawings.
06:56Which is surprising because many of them were very old.
06:58Indeed.
07:00And where was the red thread?
07:05In the most terrible place.
07:12Tied to this.
07:14Ah, the murder weapon.
07:17Wise of you to keep it.
07:19And then?
07:28I held on to her for a while.
07:31I don't know how long.
07:33Of course.
07:35Of course you did.
07:37Was her body warm to the touch?
07:40It was cold.
07:42Stiff.
07:42So.
07:45Rigor mortis established,
07:46but not dissipated.
07:48Her death was four to twelve hours
07:50before your return.
07:51So there is nothing you could have done
07:52to prevent it.
07:54Were you able to identify
07:55the number of attackers?
07:58I counted the hooves of four horses.
08:01They disappeared at the river.
08:04And the boot prints
08:05had all been wiped away.
08:07So thought out, premeditated.
08:10And what did you do next?
08:11I buried her.
08:25What is this picture?
08:27It was her favorite photograph
08:30from the time she worked
08:31on the Wild West show.
08:33And this is the letter
08:35I read to you
08:36where she says you're my father.
08:41The Wild West show,
08:45the most celebrated theatrical event
08:46of the 19th century.
08:55There, there.
09:04Here.
09:06Here.
09:06Well, I'm sorry for your loss.
09:15Your mother's murder
09:16proves the syndicate
09:17behind the red thread
09:19is even larger than I feared.
09:21If they are able
09:21to reach across the world,
09:24why do they require
09:25such size and scope?
09:27What crime or crimes
09:29are they hoping to commit?
09:30What does your mother's death
09:33have to do with it?
09:35It appears her murder
09:36and the kidnappings
09:37are connected
09:38to a much greater enterprise.
09:41Let's talk about
09:42our plan for today.
09:44Fortunately,
09:45we still have
09:46two living links
09:47to the red thread,
09:48namely Clara Anderson
09:49and Charlie the Coachman.
09:50Now I must merely
09:51do the impossible
09:51and visit Charlie
09:53in prison
09:53without alerting
09:54anyone to my presence.
09:55and you must follow up
09:56with your friend, Clara.
09:58My friend?
10:00Clara's a thief
10:00and a liar.
10:02She stole from
10:03her own mother.
10:04She's letting a man
10:04rot in jail
10:05for kidnapping her
10:06when she willingly
10:07went with him.
10:08But Charlie did
10:09kidnap her.
10:11Clara planned
10:12a fake abduction
10:12unless you believe
10:13that she was expecting
10:14to spend her honeymoon
10:16in a coffin.
10:18I'd say her elopement
10:19misfired in a spectacular fashion.
10:22And like us,
10:22the red thread
10:23are fully aware
10:24of her vulnerabilities
10:25and one day
10:26we'll probably extort her
10:27for their own purposes.
10:28We cannot afford
10:29for her misdeeds
10:30to become public knowledge
10:31and be severed from us.
10:34Well, I'm sure
10:35Clara thinks
10:35she got away
10:36with everything.
10:36Well, you must
10:37demonstrate otherwise.
10:38Be blunt.
10:39She'll respond better
10:40to cruelty
10:40than to kindness
10:41and get to her
10:42before the authorities
10:42can question her.
10:43But Clara has
10:44diplomatic immunity.
10:45From the police,
10:46not from this
10:47insurance investigator
10:48who is likely
10:49to appear at the house
10:49this very day.
10:51I would have done so.
10:52But you refused
10:52that job.
10:53Yes.
10:54Well, a mountain inquiry
10:56into the kidnapping
10:57and the jewel theft
10:58will put me
10:58in open conflict
10:59with the red thread
11:00and for that
11:00I am not yet prepared.
11:02But this detective
11:03hired by the insurance company...
11:04Oh, he could lead us
11:06to both the jewels
11:07and your friends
11:08and like me,
11:09he can go where you can't.
11:10Very good.
11:11Very good.
11:12Soon you'll start
11:13to see these advantages
11:14on your own.
11:15And since it seems
11:16to be a speciality
11:17of yours,
11:18then I'm sure
11:18you can throw
11:19this investigator
11:20on the defensive
11:20which will not only
11:21be good for protecting Clara,
11:23who will also convince
11:24the investigator
11:25to question you.
11:26And his interrogation
11:27will likely provide
11:28a theory of the crime.
11:30But why would the Andersons
11:31let me into their house?
11:33My horse, Chance,
11:34was one of the horses
11:35that took Clara
11:35back home
11:36in her father's carriage,
11:37so fetching him
11:38should provide an excellent
11:39pretext for the visit.
11:41And just this morning,
11:42Mrs. Anderson
11:44sent me a card
11:45thanking you
11:45for helping to find
11:46their daughter,
11:47so she would seem
11:48very well disposed.
11:50All right, then.
11:51I'll bring Chance back,
11:52I'll manage Clara,
11:54and I'll challenge
11:55the insurance investigator.
11:57If you agree
12:00that from now on
12:01we're working on the case
12:02with the red thread together,
12:03and we won't stop
12:04before finding out
12:05who murdered my mother
12:06and bringing the killer
12:07to justice.
12:08Agreed?
12:10Agreed.
12:19Now remember,
12:20the last woman
12:21who served as my maid
12:22was found floating
12:23in the River Thames
12:24for no better reason
12:25than as a warning to me,
12:26so exercise great caution.
12:28Now, just for my sake,
12:29yours.
12:30You must learn
12:31to cultivate humility.
12:33Are you sure
12:33that's possible?
12:34It's a stark necessity.
12:37You can only investigate
12:38the thread
12:38while seeming to pursue
12:39some other purpose.
12:41You must learn to hunt
12:42while looking like prey.
12:43I can take care of myself.
12:45No doubt.
12:46But do not confront anyone
12:48or even acknowledge
12:49their presence.
12:50Do nothing to provoke
12:51suspicion
12:51or attract unwanted attention.
12:54I'm visiting
12:54the ambassador's house
12:55to reclaim your horse.
12:57Precisely.
12:57And I am calling
12:59on an imprisoned man
13:01of no interest
13:01to our enemies
13:02in the hope
13:02this misdirection
13:03will trick them
13:04into believing
13:04my journey to Newgate Prison
13:06has nothing to do
13:07with Charlie the coachman.
13:09Do you really think
13:10he knows where
13:11Mrs. Hudson and Dr. Watson
13:12have been taken?
13:13Maybe not.
13:14But he certainly knows
13:15his accomplices.
13:16Newgate Prison!
13:17Welcome.
13:47Let's go.
14:17Sherlock Holmes, see Prisoner 45262, Professor James Mariato.
14:47Professor, don't get many visitors.
15:05He really agrees to meet anyone.
15:07He'll see me, Mr Dankworth, I promise you.
15:09Lead on.
15:10Mr Sherlock Holmes, requesting a visit which the Governor allows.
15:23Prisoner 45262.
15:25Face the wall.
15:27Put your hands above your head.
15:28I didn't expect to see you again.
15:41Oh, I know her, all right.
15:42She can stay.
15:48Ought to be ashamed of yourself, pretending to be things you ain't.
15:51I'm sorry.
15:52I didn't want to lie.
15:54Mr Holmes made me do it.
15:56What are you here for today?
15:58It's a clerk, Mr Holmes' worst chance.
16:01And while I'm here, I thought I might see Clara.
16:05Clara ain't come out of her room since you got back.
16:09But, I'll go ask her mother.
16:12What to do with you in the meantime.
16:14Please stay here, sir.
16:18While I assure myself of your safety.
16:22Now, you listen to me, you horrible little man.
16:25You will be in your best behavior for this gentleman that's visiting you.
16:29And he might harky out of you and you're for the heart.
16:31You got it, Professor.
16:36Shall I chain him for you, sir?
16:38No.
16:40I shall be right outside if you need me.
16:41Mr. Sherlock Holmes, whom I never thought to see again in the waking world.
17:04What could a poor prisoner like me do for the greatest detective on earth?
17:10Laying it on a bit thick, aren't we, Moriarty?
17:13You're unused to the deprivations of the condemned.
17:17Better if I had not escaped the Weichenbach Falls.
17:21Please, have a seat.
17:26I'll stand.
17:29Care for some lunch?
17:31I find toasting prison bread over an open flame burns off most of mold.
17:37Appetizing as that sounds, I decline.
17:40Though I do note in passing, neither your skin nor your weight reflect the ravages of a prison diet.
17:45Perhaps you ward off those perils with roast beef and claret, as one might infer, from this gravy stain on your cuff and this red directly beneath your chin.
17:55Not so incidentally, I note that though there is no cell next to yours on the western wall, the hallway outside your door goes on for another 20 feet in that direction.
18:06This ink on your fingertips from perusing the newspapers, none of which I see in evidence, not even on this metal hook by the toilet where most of your fellow prisoners find their daily news best employed.
18:22Perhaps the maid has been around to clean already.
18:29One ingenious mechanism, may I?
18:31Oh, don't worry, James. I'm not here to expose corruption in Her Majesty's prisons.
18:39I'm here on a much more important errand and one that affects us both, and I should like to discuss it with you without your assistant eavesdropping in the hall.
18:48I'm practically dead from all left here.
18:50Be quiet, you imbecile.
18:52Yes, sir.
18:54Pardon me if I demand proof this private conversation is necessary.
19:01I had wondered that the recent absence of your name in the press and the disappearance of Watson's falling puffery in the strand, the rumor that he had finally come to his senses and abandoned you was always highly suspect.
19:21And knowing that you still run your empire from behind bars, I find the decrease in those crimes most commonly associated with your known accomplices equally remarkable.
19:32Touching how we keep up with each other from afar.
19:37Very well.
19:39Under the circumstances, I shall consent to spend time in your odious company.
19:47May I?
19:48May I?
19:51May I?
19:52May I?
19:53May I?
19:54May I?
19:55May I?
19:56May I?
19:57May I?
19:58May I?
19:59May I?
20:00May I?
20:01May I?
20:02May I?
20:03May I?
20:04May I?
20:05May I?
20:06May I?
20:07May I?
20:08May I?
20:09May I?
20:10May I?
20:11May I?
20:12May I?
20:13May I?
20:14May I?
20:15May I?
20:16May I?
20:17May I?
20:18May I?
20:19May I?
20:20I'm so glad you stopped by.
20:33Your efforts to find our daughter were very brave.
20:38Clara will be down in a moment to thank you in person.
20:41But my husband and I are very anxious to express our gratitude.
20:45So we thought, since you will accept no reward, perhaps you would consider the offer to join our household.
20:53Excuse me?
20:55In the capacity of Clara's personal chaperone, given recent events, I would feel more secure if Clara had someone with whom to go to dress shops and to the theater and other social engagements.
21:11Would Clara enjoy this sort of company?
21:14She has no friends in London, and you've proven to be loyal and discreet.
21:19And it would mean quite a step up in your social standing, Amelia.
21:24Just think of all the great events to which you would be adjacent.
21:31Oh, look, there she is now.
21:34Clara, darling, look who's come for a visit.
21:36How very kind you are, Amelia.
21:39And with everything else you have to do.
21:41But I'm afraid I'm not yet quite myself.
21:45Perhaps if you're able to return next week.
21:48Don't be silly, Clara.
21:49Sit.
21:50I'll see about more tea while you think, Amelia.
21:55I shouldn't be gone longer than it takes the kettle to boil.
22:02Please don't say you've come to tell my parents everything.
22:05Why shouldn't I?
22:06You stole your own mother's jewels.
22:09You weren't kidnapped, but willingly left with Charlie, who is now in prison and liable to hang.
22:14No.
22:15Charlie cannot hang unless I testify against him.
22:18And my father has invoked diplomatic immunity to keep me out of court.
22:22Diplomatic immunity won't protect you from the insurance company.
22:26The what?
22:26Your father has filed a claim against the missing jewels.
22:30A private investigator is on the way, is perhaps already here, to find out how they were stolen.
22:36But what am I to do?
22:39Go ahead and lie.
22:41Why not add a fraud of 50,000 pounds to your list of crimes?
22:46Dear God, what have I done?
22:49My father will be sent home in disgrace, and no one will ever marry me.
22:55Oh, General, stop crying.
22:57Your mother will be back any moment, and you can't look hysterical.
23:01Of course you'll be able to marry.
23:02No.
23:03You don't understand.
23:04You are a person of no importance, and can wed whom you choose.
23:09I am not so fortunate.
23:13And if my secret should be discovered?
23:18What a desperate predicament.
23:20As you are obviously aware, many of the small businesses in which I have maintained an interest...
23:26Gambling, fraud, opium...
23:29...have been absorbed by the Red Thread, and some of my trusted lieutenants along with them.
23:33And you are unable to move against this presumptuous criminal syndicate,
23:38whilst Watson and the landlady remain in their power.
23:41I wonder.
23:42You wonder what?
23:42Attempting to control your behavior through hostages is dangerous and clumsy.
23:47If the Thread are truly worried about your conduct...
23:51Then why not just kill me?
23:54I see confinement has not dimmed your intellect, which is, as ever, entirely wasted.
24:00Leaving you alive is a grave error.
24:03They will regret it as much as I.
24:06But you agree with my premise that to destroy the Red Thread would be to the advantage of us both?
24:11Oh, yes. I very much concur.
24:15Now, if I'm not mistaken, you're about to make a request, are you not?
24:19I am.
24:21Yes. Ostensibly, I have come to Newgate Prison to visit you.
24:25In reality, however, I should like to interview an agent of the Red Thread...
24:29...incarcerated here for kidnapping the American ambassador's daughter.
24:33Howard must call you to beg for my assistance.
24:37Not at all.
24:37Well, as you pointed out, our interests momentarily align...
24:41...and it is well known that you are, in effect, if not in name, the Prince Regent of this prison.
24:48Oh, come, come. You exaggerate.
24:50More tea, Professor?
24:52Uh, perhaps half a cup.
24:55It's surprising I agree. How would you get to and from this idiot cell?
24:59Mr. Dankworth would escort me there and bring me back.
25:02And to avoid being recognized in transit?
25:04I would temporarily change clothes with you.
25:09Well, well, I've always wondered what it's like inside that stuffed shirt of yours.
25:15Ah, but what about your horrifying face, which many a prisoner here has good reason to remember?
25:21Well, the coachman is newly arrived from America and will not recognize me.
25:26And as Mr. Dankworth leads me around, I shall wear this hood over my head, as do the most dangerous prisoners.
25:34For I am dangerous, my reality, very dangerous, lest you forget.
25:38No.
25:39I have cause to recollect at every moment of my life.
25:44Are you not worried this coachman will consider you a spy, planted by the police?
25:50No.
25:50I have more information on him than the police, and some of it gathered from a source they cannot question.
25:56Oh?
25:57Who?
25:58And whom would that be?
26:00Clara?
26:02Clara!
26:03Come ahead, Clara!
26:04Dear Lord, there you are.
26:07I'm sorry to interrupt, but we have a visitor who needs to talk to us.
26:11Clara's still recovering.
26:13Could this visitor not come back another time?
26:14I'm afraid not.
26:16Our daughter has been returned, but the jewels haven't.
26:18And our insurance claim against them must be pursued with urgency.
26:21I am sorry, young lady, to end your visit prematurely.
26:26But won't the investigator want to speak to me too?
26:29If he's going to be questioning Clara, I was there for some of it.
26:33Amelia's quite right.
26:35She helped rescue our daughter.
26:38Oh, very well.
26:39Wait here.
26:45Better watch your steps, sir.
26:46Here we are.
27:13What was it?
27:14I won't remain in there a moment longer than necessary.
27:22Hello, Charlie.
27:23You have a gentleman visitor.
27:25No funny business now.
27:28Yeah, fine.
27:32Charlie Hallroyd at your service.
27:34I'm not talking to anyone.
27:36Oh, you better have a lot to say.
27:38I've come to demand explanations for your betrayal.
27:41Demand.
27:41Demand.
27:44I'm black in your eye, then see what you demand, old-timer.
27:51I owe you nothing.
27:52Are you sure about that?
27:58Perhaps you should reconsider.
28:00Even in here?
28:05And everywhere else you might hope to go.
28:08You can escape from the law, but never from us.
28:12If you value your life, you will tell me at once why you've deviated so far from our plan.
28:18If you know the plan, only tell me what it was.
28:20If you wish me to detail your mistakes, you were to get the stupid girl to fall in love with you.
28:28An easy enough task for a man of your appearance and disposition.
28:31Indeed, you were chosen for this assignment as much for your looks as your skill with horses.
28:36Once you had romanced Miss Anderson in America, you were to convince her you wished to elope and steal her mother's jewels for a proper income.
28:46In reality, however, she was to be held hostage in exchange for her father's cooperation in a scheme I may not reveal.
28:54Well, I know, anyway.
28:55Weems and Maggot mentioned keys they wanted the ambassador to hand over, but what they're meant to unlock, I have no idea.
29:02Then there is the matter of the jewels.
29:05Weems and Maggot told me to give the jewels to them.
29:07And did Weems and Maggot also order you to try and sell the jewels to one Mr. Clarence Halfpenny?
29:12Did they order you to take the girl with you back to America?
29:15Did they order you to burn the hostages and themselves alive in the coffin factory whilst you escaped?
29:21Burned alive?
29:22No, no, Weems and Maggot, they took the gems and the other hostages and rode away with them.
29:27Neither Weems, nor Maggot, nor the jewels, nor the doctor and the housekeeper ever arrived at the rendezvous point.
29:33They're not in Richmond?
29:34And are missing still.
29:36And you tried to sail back to America with Clara where you thought to set up a pretty household with the stolen jewels.
29:42No, I don't have the jewels. Weems and Maggot have them, okay?
29:46Wait, no, no.
29:47We left the coffin factory because there was a call on the telephone from the police.
29:53We were tipped off by your man on the inside. I swear, ask him.
29:56And were you a part of that telephone call?
29:59Or did you only hear one side of the conversation?
30:02Did you consider it was staged for your benefit, just so you would give out the jewels?
30:08Danquist!
30:09Wait.
30:15Wait, no, no, I...
30:16I did try to run away with Clara, sure, but...
30:20I fell in love with her.
30:21But I never... I never burned anyone.
30:24You have to believe me. I've told you everything.
30:27You have to believe me!
30:34Come this way, please.
30:37Mr. Bird Whistle.
30:38My wife, daughter, and her friend, Amelia.
30:42Bird Whistle, sir.
30:45A T, not a D.
30:47And no H, which would be silent in any case.
30:50My apologies, sir.
30:52My American ears sometimes fail me.
30:54Have you completed your inquiries?
30:56Only those which were least important.
30:58The police have already determined the jewels were missing,
31:01and that the arrested kidnapper did not have them.
31:03But I'm curious.
31:05I'm very curious as to why your wife's valuables were not in securing this bank
31:10instead of a box that could have been broken into by a child.
31:13As to why we had the jewels, they were stolen the very night we arrived from America.
31:18Then there's the little matter of the delay in reporting the theft after Clara went missing.
31:24Our daughter was abducted before we'd even unpacked, and at first we gave no thought to the gems.
31:30I instigated a search for them myself, hoping they were still present, and could be found before further disturbing my wife.
31:37Well, I'm sure your discomfort was sevenfold when you learned the coachman had found his way into your wife's bedroom at night.
31:43Or was that not so unusual?
31:45I beg your pardon, sir.
31:46What the devil do you mean?
31:48Forgive me, please.
31:48There was no attempt to offend.
31:51I'm unfamiliar with how wealthy Americans conduct relations with their servants.
31:57They could hardly be called a relationship.
32:00Charlie worked for us in America and came here some weeks before us,
32:05and he was in and out of the house and stables during that entire time.
32:09What trust do you put in him?
32:11I'm sorry to have to say, but in retrospect, it appears careless.
32:17But wait.
32:19If the coachman was here some weeks before, how could he have known the jewels were in your bedroom?
32:26How the coachman knew anything is something to ask him.
32:29Do you want the Andersons to guess what he was thinking?
32:32But aren't you more interested in the facts?
32:34Well, my interest in the facts is all-consuming, and I will know them before I'm done.
32:39Now, young Miss Anderson.
32:41I must hear all your recollections you've so far withheld from the police.
32:45Because the kidnapping and theft were so brilliantly conceived and daringly executed.
32:50I hope you might shed some light on how those crimes were carried out.
32:57Did you fool him good and proper?
33:00Is the red thread unraveled?
33:02Afraid a little?
33:04We'll see.
33:05Oh, you can tell me.
33:06A problem shared is a problem half, as they say.
33:09Lest we each work our own side of the street on that point, you will have to trust me.
33:13Oddly, I don't think of us as trusting people.
33:16For example, did you really believe I would allow you to walk into my cell, ask for help, and then give me nothing in return?
33:23I've already said I would pursue our mutual interests, and to that end, please return my clothes.
33:27I must leave at once.
33:28Ah, Sherlock.
33:31I am at my leisure.
33:35I could, without difficulty, hold you here until nightfall, possibly beyond, unless you wish to leave this place dressed as a prisoner, with everyone knowing the true purpose of your visit.
33:45If you did that, I would stop at nothing to destroy you.
33:48Ah, but by that it would be too late for Watson and Mrs. Hudson.
33:52No!
33:53You should not be leaving here before agreeing to my terms.
33:58This will not do.
34:00This will not do at all.
34:02No sleeping draught could have wiped out the memory of your whole ordeal.
34:06I forbid you from using that insinuating tone with my daughter.
34:10Do not mistake me for one of your pet Pinkertons, nor some London bobby cowering before diplomatic immunity.
34:17I will have the truth, or you will be paid nothing for your claim.
34:20Father, please let me answer him.
34:26As I told you, sir, I went to sleep in my room, and I woke inside the coffin with no memory of how I got there.
34:33I was kept inside the coffin, except for those activities the body has no choice but to perform.
34:41And on these occasions, I was blindfolded.
34:43And every second of my confinement, I was in terror for my life and my honor.
34:50Well, where was the coachman during this?
34:52Could I possibly know?
34:53And when did he take you from the coffin factory?
34:56How was it you were on the brink of boarding a ship, holding his hand?
35:00Holding his hand?
35:01Amelia, please don't.
35:02I was there.
35:04I saw her get pulled from a dark box into the blinding light of day.
35:08How could you expect her to resist a dangerous criminal who was dragging her to the gates of the London dock?
35:15Would you like to examine her knees?
35:17Is that what you came here to do?
35:18Of course not.
35:19I see a ring on your finger.
35:21Tell me, Mr. Birdwhistle, did you court your wife by drugging her?
35:25Did you yank her to the altar in a coffin?
35:28Is that how you do things in the Birdwhistle household?
35:30That's quite enough, young lady.
35:31That's quite enough.
35:32Now, I apologize for the indelicate nature of my questions.
35:37But do understand, when there's tens of thousands of pounds at stake, I must be thorough.
35:43And thoroughness demands cruelty?
35:45Not at all.
35:47Amelia, is it?
35:48When you were present at the rescue?
35:52Perhaps I could speak to you in private.
35:53Well, of course you can.
35:55That's why we insisted on her being present.
36:00Allow me to show you out.
36:02Good day.
36:03You are a most unexpected sort of person.
36:16American.
36:18A mate.
36:19Rescuer.
36:20Stable lad.
36:21And attorney.
36:22And attorney.
36:24You provided sound representation for Clara Anderson.
36:27I only said what you already know, which is the jewels have been stolen and can't be found.
36:35And there's so many places to look, such as the coffin factory, where at one point there were at least three hostages being held, and yet here you are covered in old ground.
36:43Don't be impertinent.
36:45Besides which, I know the factory to be owned by Lord Withersy.
36:48And I assure you, Withersy is in possession of a considerable fortune, which he has no need to increase through kidnapping or thievery.
36:56And he will eventually comply with my request for a list of his partners and employees.
37:02Eventually?
37:04Why don't you have that list already?
37:06Is it because you can't bully Lord Withersy the way you just bullied a young helpless girl?
37:11One would bully, wouldn't he?
37:12He drives me.
37:13I do have other arts.
37:15I could teach you my methods, provided you don't already know everything.
37:19You show promise as an investigator, and would likely take others off guard as you have me.
37:25Oh, think about it.
37:27For now, this is where we part ways.
37:29If you helped me find the jewels, it could be worth a bonus of, ooh, shall we show you £100?
37:35A fifth of what you were offered.
37:37How generous.
37:38Good day, Mr. Birtwistle.
37:39She calls me a bully.
37:46Losing a child is difficult, especially when you've no one but yourself to blame.
37:51After my wife died, I was so concentrated on my work that I neglected my young son at an enormous cost.
37:59I remember this story.
38:00His name was, uh, Daniel.
38:03Or Dan, as we called him.
38:06Just before his tenth birthday, when I was away on the continent, Dan was arrested on some trifling matter.
38:14Connected to the theft of a clergyman's gold timepiece, as I recall.
38:19Gold plated.
38:20I like to think he meant it as a gift for me.
38:27In any case, during my absence, he was shipped off to Australia, under the Home Children Act.
38:32But surely your corruptive influence was great even then.
38:35His pardon was quick, yes.
38:36But in the time it took to reach him, he had disappeared.
38:41Off to Melbourne, some said.
38:43None of my employees could find him.
38:46That was many years ago.
38:47Lately, however, there have been reports of a young Australian lad, newly arrived in London,
38:54who looks very much like a grown-up version of my Dan.
38:57Your story is almost endlessly Dickensian.
39:01Will I find my clothes, do you think, somewhere at the end of this plot?
39:04Well, I will return your suit, give my support in attacking the thread.
39:08Maintain my silence about your kidnapped friends.
39:10If you agree to find my son, then bring him here for a visit.
39:17Well, cannot your own organisation track him down?
39:20Has your small army of familiars utterly failed you?
39:22I cannot let my colleagues know that my own son dare ignore me.
39:27I doubt if you can understand what it's like to have a child.
39:31I'm not without imagination.
39:32I am very concerned that in their attempt to absorb my empire, the thread do no harm to my Dan.
39:41Very well.
39:43Very well, but I can accept no fee for this undertaking.
39:46I do not intend to offer you one.
39:48Well, it is usual when hiring a consulting detective.
39:50You're not being hired, you're being extorted.
39:53No, I'm doing you a favour and one much less onerous than I'd anticipated.
39:57What is it, Dankworth?
39:58I'm sorry, your professorship.
40:00It's a bit of news that concerns us all.
40:10I'm sorry, Holmes.
40:11Your presence here has become inconvenient.
40:13I regret you must rush away.
40:14Well, we are well past the point.
40:16I might have rushed anywhere.
40:17Indeed, you have detained me almost past the point of human endurance.
40:20That is what this place was designed to do.
40:23Dankworth, please be certain Mr. Holmes has taken out in such a way
40:26that the contents of this note become clear to him.
40:32This way, sir.
40:34What's the problem, Mr. Dankworth?
40:35That's not the way I came in?
40:37No.
40:38That's the way you must leave.
40:44Come on, Doc.
40:46Get the other one, that's it.
40:48Right, easy, Dan.
40:48He's dead, governor.
40:51Killed himself and saved us the trouble.
41:15Come on, there's not a money for it.
41:17What do you mean?
41:17Well, I don't know.
