00:04:39THE END
00:04:41Good evening, Dr. Toebel.
00:04:48I have here some very interesting scientific books.
00:04:52I thought you might like to see them.
00:04:54Please come in.
00:04:58He's entering the house.
00:04:59Quickly, get the car and have the motor running.
00:05:01I will follow.
00:05:02Here, X will have the Toebel bombsite of the Fuhr
00:05:04while this Holmes is still having his tea.
00:05:07Now.
00:05:11What are you doing?
00:05:33I am sorry.
00:05:34But for months, every move I have made has been watched.
00:05:38I am not a coward, Mr. Holmes.
00:05:40They won't watch you anymore.
00:05:41Tonight, they intend to take you forcibly across the German border.
00:05:44Then why do we wait here, doing nothing, like rats in a trap?
00:05:47Calm yourself, my dear Dr. Toebel.
00:05:49We shall not only escape their trap,
00:05:51but we shall also take the cheese away with us.
00:05:54But how?
00:05:56The four sections of your bombsite fit inside these ponderous tomes.
00:06:01Although I must confess that I shy to the thought of
00:06:03disempowering a complete set of Charles Dickens.
00:06:06Ah, but you cannot hide me in a hollow book.
00:06:08My dear fellow,
00:06:10I am sorry that my good friend Dr. Watson isn't here to explain to you
00:06:12that my preparations are never slipshod.
00:06:20Stephan!
00:06:20Eric!
00:06:21Why do you call my servants?
00:06:23Your servants, yes.
00:06:24But tonight they assume new roles.
00:06:26Let me present Dr. Toebel and our old friend the bookseller.
00:06:29Holmes, it is so simple.
00:06:31Yes, the obvious always appears simple.
00:06:33Quick now.
00:06:33We must leave.
00:06:34Stephan!
00:06:35The night sack.
00:06:35The night sack.
00:06:35The night sack.
00:07:05Stephan and Eric are proving excellent to Coise.
00:07:22Then the Chapeau has been fooled?
00:07:23Completely.
00:07:26Her servants are leading them into the next street.
00:07:28But what will happen to Stephan and Eric?
00:07:30Nothing, don't worry.
00:07:32I've taken care of that.
00:07:35The way is here.
00:07:36Come on, quick.
00:07:47You would take the Nazi's own car.
00:07:49One must adapt oneself to the tools at hand.
00:07:50Don't you think you made them believe you're a harmless old bookseller?
00:08:05Yes, I've always felt that a thorough knowledge of the classics might come in handy.
00:08:08But how can we get across the border?
00:08:15And through France?
00:08:16There's no need to get across.
00:08:18At this very moment a Royal Air Force plane is waiting for us at a secret landing place.
00:08:21How long before we arrive in London?
00:08:38In a very few minutes.
00:08:39We're passing over Dover now.
00:08:42You don't have to get used to our London blackouts, Dr. Tobel.
00:09:07Dr. Watson's very untidy.
00:09:37What are we going to do with these?
00:09:41A problem of the most elementary nature, my dear Dr. Tobel.
00:09:50You are going to keep them here?
00:09:52I have always believed in the theory, originally protected by Edgar Allan Poe, the American writer.
00:09:59But the best place to hide anything is where everyone can see it.
00:10:03Yes, but you will remember, no doubt, in Poe's story, the furloughed letter.
00:10:10And the missive in question was always in plain view.
00:10:14Oh, yes, you're going to get used to it.
00:10:19Hands up, gentlemen.
00:10:20Scott and Yard, quick.
00:10:34Oh, my goodness.
00:10:36Good evening, Mrs. Hudson.
00:10:39Oh, why, it's Mr. Holmes.
00:10:42Holmes?
00:10:43Hello, Watson, old fellow.
00:10:44It's good to see you again.
00:10:46Telephone.
00:10:48Huh?
00:10:48Who do you want?
00:10:49Oh, yes, your Scotland Yard.
00:10:52I'm afraid there's been a little mistake.
00:10:54Well, you didn't get angry.
00:10:55We all make mistakes at times.
00:10:57What?
00:10:58Well, if we didn't, you'd be out of a job.
00:11:01Dr. Tobel, this is my friend and associate,
00:11:03and as you may have observed, my watchdog, Dr. Watson.
00:11:06How do you do, sir?
00:11:07How do you do?
00:11:07Dr. Tobel and I flew in from Zurich this evening.
00:11:09You can put that thing away now, Watson.
00:11:12Dr. Tobel, a warrior of amassing a quest for physics in 1939.
00:11:17My dear Watson, there is only one Dr. Tobel.
00:11:20Without Mr. Holmes, there would have been no Dr. Tobel, I am afraid.
00:11:24But I thought you were living in America, sir.
00:11:25I have been working in Switzerland for the past two years.
00:11:28And Holmes got you out?
00:11:29In the nick of time.
00:11:31There was not a point he overlooked.
00:11:32Every contingency was foreseen and provided for.
00:11:36It was magnificent.
00:11:37Thank you, doctor.
00:11:39The problem was not without its interesting points.
00:11:41Is there anything you would like, Mr. Holmes?
00:11:43Oh, thank you, Mrs. Hudson.
00:11:44You can go to bed now.
00:11:45You gave me an awful fright dressed up like that.
00:11:48Well, good night, sir.
00:11:49He's quite right.
00:11:50You can't blame me for jumping to the conclusion that I did.
00:11:53He looked like a broken-down musician.
00:11:55Holmes, why didn't you take your fiddle with her?
00:11:58I never did think much of this dressing-up business.
00:12:00It was necessary, I assure you.
00:12:02The Gestapo was close on our heels.
00:12:04Really?
00:12:04Sir, this is Sherlock Holmes.
00:12:07I want to speak to Sir Reginald Bailey, please.
00:12:09Reginald Bailey?
00:12:10Is that the fellow who played rugga for Blackheath?
00:12:12Yes, Watson.
00:12:13Oh.
00:12:14Hello, Sir Reginald.
00:12:15Holmes speaking.
00:12:17Yes, from Baker Street.
00:12:18I have Dr. Tobel with me.
00:12:21Oh, thank you.
00:12:23Very well, then.
00:12:24I'll meet you in half an hour.
00:12:26There must be no delay.
00:12:27I'll arrange with Sir Reginald to have the test tomorrow morning.
00:12:30I suggest that only cabinet ministers
00:12:31and your best aviation experts be present.
00:12:34Naturally.
00:12:34Watson, I leave Dr. Tobel in your care.
00:12:36Give him a sedative.
00:12:37This has been a strenuous business,
00:12:38and he has a long day ahead of him again tomorrow.
00:12:40Certainly, Holmes, of course.
00:12:41He shall sleep in my bedroom.
00:12:42I'll keep watch till you return.
00:12:44It is not necessary to guard me.
00:12:46I am quite safe now.
00:12:48Safe, Dr. Tobel?
00:12:49I shouldn't count on it for a second.
00:12:51But, Mr. Holmes...
00:12:52A great deal may depend on your safety.
00:12:54And the enemy understands that just as well as we do.
00:12:56Good night.
00:12:57Keep a light, Watson.
00:13:02Yes, of course.
00:13:04A couple of these, and you'll sleep peacefully through a blitz.
00:13:08You'd better start undressing at once,
00:13:10or you'll find yourself fast asleep in the middle of taking off your trousers.
00:13:13Well, I'll sit over here and keep an eye on things.
00:13:16Oh, by the way, if you're nervous, call out.
00:13:20Good night, Doctor.
00:13:21Good night, Doctor.
00:13:22Oh, funny.
00:13:23Both doing the same thing at the same time.
00:13:25Good night, Doctor.
00:13:26Good night, Doctor.
00:13:31No, sir.
00:13:35I'm tidy for the Holmes.
00:13:37Good night, Doctor.
00:14:07Good night, Doctor.
00:14:11Good night, Doctor.
00:14:13Hello?
00:14:14Yes, I just arrived about an hour ago.
00:14:16It is most important that I see you at once.
00:14:19No, no.
00:14:20I cannot explain.
00:14:24It is now five minutes past midnight.
00:14:27I leave at once.
00:14:29Goodbye.
00:14:29Goodbye.
00:14:29Goodbye.
00:14:37Holmes, I don't have to tell you how much this means to us.
00:14:47We shall know a great deal more about the bombsite after the demonstration, Sir Reginald.
00:14:51The war office have a pretty good idea of the value of the Tobel bombsite,
00:14:55just as the Nazis have.
00:14:58However,
00:14:58Oh,
00:15:00if you'd care to place Dr. Tobel under the
00:15:02protection of Scotland Yard until tomorrow...
00:15:04No, no, no.
00:15:05No, that won't be necessary.
00:15:07I shall personally deliver Dr. Tobel
00:15:08to your representatives on Salisbury Plain
00:15:10in plenty of time for the demonstration.
00:15:13Good night, Sir Reginald.
00:15:14Good night, Mr. Holmes.
00:15:15Good night, sir.
00:15:45Charlotte Averley.
00:15:53Flat B.
00:15:55Right.
00:15:56Get the car ready.
00:15:58I'll wait here until he comes out.
00:16:15Is that what the Americans call doodling?
00:16:23It is more serious than you could possibly realize, Charlotte.
00:16:31Good.
00:16:36More coffee?
00:16:38No, thank you, darling.
00:16:39I must get back before they miss me.
00:16:42We've been separated for so long.
00:16:44I couldn't bear it if anything should part us again.
00:16:46I want to work with you,
00:16:48and I want to know every minute where you are.
00:16:51Even for you to know the details of my mission in London
00:16:53is to sign your death warrant.
00:16:56If you are in real danger, I want to share it.
00:16:58There is one thing you can do.
00:17:05God, this envelope.
00:17:07If anything happens to me,
00:17:08see that it reaches the hands of Mr. Sherlock Holmes.
00:17:11Mr. Sherlock Holmes?
00:17:13Yes.
00:17:14I pray I never have to deliver it.
00:17:15Don't tell me.
00:17:37Help!
00:17:38Help!
00:17:45He got away.
00:17:55Are you all right, sir?
00:17:55I think so.
00:17:58It must have been a robber.
00:18:00Since the blackout,
00:18:01those bodies have become quite a nuisance, sir.
00:18:03I say you'd better come with me
00:18:04and have that fixed up.
00:18:07Just lean on my arm, that's it.
00:18:08All right.
00:18:15Watson!
00:18:29Watson, wake up!
00:18:29Huh?
00:18:30Where's Tobel?
00:18:31He's in there.
00:18:32No, he isn't.
00:18:33He's gone.
00:18:33That's impossible.
00:18:34He's asleep in my bed.
00:18:35I've been here all the time.
00:18:36If anything's happened to him...
00:18:40Tobel!
00:18:42All right?
00:18:42Ah, it is nothing.
00:18:43Here, sit down here.
00:18:45Well, let's have a look.
00:18:51Oh, it doesn't look too bad.
00:18:52Who patched you up?
00:18:53The police doctor?
00:18:54Yes.
00:18:55He looks as if you've been attacked.
00:18:56Obviously, my dear Watson.
00:18:58Dr Tobel,
00:18:59do you suspect the woman of arranging the trap?
00:19:01Woman?
00:19:02What woman?
00:19:03She's blonde, five foot six,
00:19:04full-lipped and very affectionate.
00:19:05Oh, really?
00:19:05You've known her for a long time.
00:19:07You were attacked after leaving her apartment.
00:19:09Holmes, how do you know this?
00:19:11The face part on your coat
00:19:12tells me of her height and her affection for you.
00:19:13You, uh, held her close before departing.
00:19:17Oh, still there, Holmes.
00:19:18It's all there for the trained eye to read, Watson.
00:19:20But look here.
00:19:20Why couldn't he have been attacked
00:19:21on his way to the woman's apartment?
00:19:23The mark of a blow has erased some of the powder.
00:19:26Obviously, if the attack came first,
00:19:27the powder would have remained undisturbed.
00:19:29And the full lips?
00:19:30That was a guess.
00:19:30I never guess, Watson.
00:19:33You have rubbed the lipstick from your face
00:19:35with the handkerchief you now hold in your hand.
00:19:37And that amount of lipstick
00:19:39never came from a pair of thin lips.
00:19:41And the blonde hair?
00:19:45Good gracious me.
00:19:46Mr. Holmes, I am glad you are on my side.
00:19:49Well, in that case,
00:19:50you will desist from disobeying my orders
00:19:51and slipping out
00:19:52while your bodyguard sleeps his watch away.
00:19:56It won't happen again, Holmes.
00:19:58I was sitting in front of the fire.
00:19:59Mr. Dozen...
00:20:00All right, all right.
00:20:00I'm sorry.
00:20:01Now, can you describe your assailant?
00:20:04I never saw him.
00:20:06A great figure came at me in the dark.
00:20:09I felt a stunning blow on my head
00:20:11and instantly fingers were at my throat.
00:20:13But you must have noticed something about him.
00:20:14Think, man.
00:20:16A thing of little consequence to you
00:20:17may mean a great deal to me.
00:20:18Wait.
00:20:19Wait a moment.
00:20:20There was one thing.
00:20:22Long fingers at my throat like...
00:20:24like steel.
00:20:26And then...
00:20:27then a...
00:20:28an odour.
00:20:29A heavy, drug-like odour.
00:20:30A drug?
00:20:31Opium?
00:20:32That is it.
00:20:33I am sure of it now.
00:20:35Well,
00:20:36I suggest we get the remains of a good night's sleep.
00:20:39Remember,
00:20:40the test takes place tomorrow morning
00:20:41on Salisbury Plain.
00:20:49The principle of Dr. Tobel's device
00:20:51involves the use of three sonic beams.
00:20:53Is that right, sir?
00:20:54That appears to be it.
00:20:56There he is.
00:21:04There he is.
00:21:15We're on the course now, sir.
00:21:17We're on the course now, sir.
00:21:29We're on the course now.
00:21:41We're on the course now.

00:26:47just as i feared lestrade's men report that tobell is missing
00:26:50missing
00:26:51Yes, I was afraid of this.
00:27:08How long has he been missing?
00:27:10Practically since he walked out of your office yesterday.
00:27:12If you'd only give me the address of this place,
00:27:14I shouldn't have had to waste so much time finding it.
00:27:18Empty. The bomb site's gone.
00:27:20I didn't expect to find it here, Sir Reginald.
00:27:22This is a pretty mess.
00:27:23If you knew this was going to happen,
00:27:24why the devil didn't you do something about it?
00:27:26You can rely on Holmes implicitly, Sir Reginald.
00:27:28To Bell's gun, and heaven alone knows where.
00:27:30Well, it serves me right for listening to that crack-brained idea of his.
00:27:33He dismissed Lestrade's men and they went,
00:27:35leaving him here alone and unguarded.
00:27:37Holmes, if anything has happened to To Bell,
00:27:39if his invention falls into the hands of Germany,
00:27:41it will be a major disaster for England.
00:27:43Christmas wrapping.
00:27:45He did his Christmas shopping in plenty of time.
00:27:47Yes, curious.
00:27:49Do you know it's something, Holmes?
00:27:52Scent.
00:27:53Perfume.
00:27:54Yes, I noticed it the moment we entered the room.
00:27:57Clair de Lune.
00:27:59One of the rarer essences and very expensive.
00:28:01That woman again.
00:28:02Undoubtedly.
00:28:03Give me Inspector Lestrade.
00:28:04Sherlock Holmes calling.
00:28:05So Holmes is finally stumped.
00:28:06First time I've heard him call for help.
00:28:07Call for help indeed.
00:28:08He's only just beginning his investigation.
00:28:09Lestrade.
00:28:10This is Holmes.
00:28:11Check the records and trace a call made on my private telephone at Baker Street
00:28:13at approximately 12 o'clock on the night of Dr. To Bell's arrival in London.
00:28:14Finally stumped, eh, Sir Reginald?
00:28:15Yes, Lestrade.
00:28:16Wait a minute.
00:28:17Charlotte, wait a minute.
00:28:18Charlotte, Haberley.
00:28:1934, St. George's Street.
00:28:20Flat B.
00:28:21Excellent, Lestrade.
00:28:22Lestrade.
00:28:23Yes, Lestrade.
00:28:24Yes, Lestrade.
00:28:25Yes, Lestrade.
00:28:26Yes, Lestrade.
00:28:27Wait a minute.
00:28:28Charlotte, Haberley.
00:28:2934, St. George's Street.
00:28:30Flat B.
00:28:31Excellent, Lestrade.
00:28:33Where is Dr. To Bell?
00:28:34I can't tell you.
00:28:35You mean you won't tell me?
00:28:36I don't know.
00:28:37How many Christmas books have you done?
00:28:38You're done.
00:28:39I'm done.
00:28:40I'm done.
00:28:41I'm done.
00:28:42I'm done.
00:28:43I'm done.
00:28:44I'm done.
00:28:45I'm done.
00:28:46I'm done.
00:28:47I'm done.
00:28:48I'm done.
00:28:49I'm done.
00:28:50I'm done.
00:28:51I'm done.
00:28:52I'm done.
00:28:53I'm done.
00:28:54I'm done.
00:28:55I'm done.
00:28:56How many Christmas packages did you take to him, Miss Abelly?
00:28:59Five.
00:29:00He dismantled his bomb sight and packed the units in four other boxes.
00:29:05Is that correct?
00:29:07Pardon me.
00:29:13Hello.
00:29:14Yes.
00:29:15This is Miss Abelly.
00:29:17Why…
00:29:18Why, someone must have stolen it.
00:29:22On Richmond Bypass.
00:29:25yes yes I'll arrange to have it removed yes at once now I can be frank with you
00:29:37mr. Holmes dr. tobell has disappeared they found my car on Richmond bypass
00:29:42wrecked I loaned it to him last night for what purpose miss Abelie he wouldn't
00:29:47tell me but he said that if anything should happen to him I was to give you
00:29:52this Holmes then he must have expected something yes his envelope has been
00:29:58opened and resealed but that isn't possible it hasn't been out of my hands
00:30:08we meet again mr. Holmes what why that's not the message it isn't even the same
00:30:14paper I saw dr. tobell draw little sets of figures what kind of figures well they
00:30:20they looked like little dancing men dancing men that's curious who's been in
00:30:25this apartment since dr. tobell entrusted that envelope to your care and no one I've
00:30:31had no visitors think possibly a tradesman no only the one for a few minutes and
00:30:39that one her workman he came to fix my light switch he couldn't have possibly
00:30:44did you send for him I know my lights went out and soon afterwards he knocked at
00:30:49my door and told me the porter had sent him up that's where he worked but he
00:30:55wasn't alone in this room more than five minutes and he did fix the lights they
00:30:59went on again the switch hasn't been touched the paint still covers the
00:31:03screw heads he simply threw the main switch in the basement pretended to work on
00:31:08this one and after a few moments an accomplice threw the main switch back on
00:31:11but in those few minutes did you get a look at his face no only a glance now I
00:31:17realize he kept his face averted but he was a large man yes he was large his eyes
00:31:20heavy lidded a thin film over the pupils then Holmes you remember now his eyes
00:31:25they were like a snakes miss ableley dr. tobell is being held by one of the
00:31:29most brilliant men in the history of crime come on Watson there isn't a moment to
00:31:32see why I'm not allowed to go with you you have your own mission Watson yes take a
00:31:43seal note to inspector Lestrade while you search soho I shall not be searching for
00:31:47him I shall permit him to find me in the character of a murderous Lasker once in his
00:31:51employee and whom I may add is still in jail yes but after all these years make no
00:31:57mistake Watson this is not a duel of intellects with a cruel but single-minded
00:32:02Gestapo killer this is our greatest problem with England as the stake and our
00:32:09antagonist professor Moriarty we've got to beat him hmm once he's behind bars I
00:32:16think I shall entitle my memoirs of these adventures the end of Moriarty an
00:32:22excellent title Watson but we must arrange that it isn't Moriarty who was left to

00:37:16I would say you were wrong
00:37:17and Mr. Sherlock Holmes was correct
00:37:19good evening Professor Moriarty
00:37:21welcome Holmes
00:37:23my men have instructions to bring anybody here who inquires for me
00:37:26they haggle while I watch
00:37:28an admirable disguise by the way
00:37:30it fooled them completely
00:37:32of course it didn't fool me
00:37:33I never intended that it should
00:37:35I meant only that it should bring us face to face
00:37:38just like old times eh
00:37:41a battle of wits
00:37:43of superior intellects
00:37:45I may say I've been expecting you
00:37:47since I made off of your precious Dr. Tobel
00:37:49and his code
00:37:50ah yes
00:37:51and his code
00:37:52but valuable as your doctor and his code are to my business
00:37:57I think my main interest in this affair
00:38:00is the chance he gives me to battle with you again
00:38:03Moriarty
00:38:08this is no simple crime that you contemplate
00:38:13it's a staggering blow against your own country
00:38:16that doesn't concern me overly
00:38:18I shall make greater profit from this affair
00:38:20than all my other adventures put together
00:38:22then you refuse
00:38:24oh most assuredly
00:38:27in fact I intend to ensure the success of this venture tonight
00:38:31by liquidating you Mr. Holmes
00:38:34I think that is the American phrase
00:38:37quite
00:38:38you the one man intelligent enough to stand in my way
00:38:41a gun
00:38:43oh come now
00:38:45this is not the Professor Moriarty
00:38:47the master criminal I once knew
00:38:49a duck rat could do as much
00:38:51did you think I was going to shoot you Mr. Holmes
00:38:53oh
00:38:54dear me no
00:38:56this is simply to prevent a troublesome scene
00:38:59I expected you
00:39:01and made full arrangements
00:39:03you see my good Mr. Holmes
00:39:07these shelves lift out
00:39:09and you will rest somewhat uncomfortably
00:39:12in the false bottom of his sea chest
00:39:15my sailor friend Jack Brady
00:39:17goes to sea immediately
00:39:19once out of sight of land
00:39:21he pushes the chest overboard
00:39:24time up
00:39:25perhaps your good friend Dr. Watson
00:39:30can entitle this adventure
00:39:33the end of Sherlock Holmes
00:39:35he will be disappointed
00:39:37he intended to call it
00:39:39the end of Professor Moriarty
00:39:41hurry
00:39:42hurry
00:39:43come on sir

00:41:59that much energy

00:42:31huh
00:42:32they dropped me on my head
00:42:33oh
00:42:34Moriarty would have been
00:42:35delighted
00:42:36so professor Moriarty
00:42:37is alive
00:42:38alive and in possession
00:42:39of dr. Tobel's code
00:42:40no good going back
00:42:41they've all gone
00:42:42what are you going to do
00:42:43well first I'm going to
00:42:44wash this filthy stuff
00:42:45off my face
00:42:46then I'm going to see
00:42:47I've got to find some clue
00:42:48to the content of dr. Tobel's
00:42:49message come on
00:42:50quick
00:42:51I only got one glimpse
00:42:52of the note while he was
00:42:53preparing it
00:42:56he was seated at this desk
00:42:57no he was sitting on the
00:42:59couch when he wrote the
00:43:00message but he sealed the
00:43:01envelope here
00:43:02the message was written in
00:43:03ink with this pen
00:43:04no he used a pencil
00:43:05this one
00:43:06thank you
00:43:09use this writing pad
00:43:10yes
00:43:11has it been used since
00:43:12no
00:43:14they should be here
00:43:15they must be here
00:43:16what Mr. Holmes
00:43:17the lead in this pencil
00:43:18is hard
00:43:19hard enough to make an
00:43:20impression on the
00:43:21coarse fibers of which
00:43:22this paper is made
00:43:23the impressions at the
00:43:25moment
00:43:26are invisible
00:43:29if we immerse this sheet
00:43:30in a solution of
00:43:31fluorescent salts
00:43:33dry it
00:43:34and then photograph it
00:43:35by ultraviolet light
00:43:37the fibers broken by the
00:43:40writing
00:43:41will absorb less of the
00:43:42solution than other parts
00:43:43of the paper
00:43:44switch off the lights
00:43:46Watson
00:43:47we place the slide in the
00:43:48projector
00:43:49and turn on the light
00:43:50the broken fibers appear darker
00:44:00than the rest of the paper
00:44:01and are therefore visible
00:44:02splendid Holmes
00:44:03now I recognize that code
00:44:05do you remember a case we had
00:44:06some years ago
00:44:07it's probably the same
00:44:08alphabet substitution code
00:44:09yes Watson
00:44:10I believe Dr. Tobell
00:44:11meant to communicate with us
00:44:12by that means
00:44:13substitution of the alphabet
00:44:14I don't understand
00:44:15one of the oldest codes in
00:44:16use is based on the
00:44:17repetition of figures
00:44:18e is the letter most
00:44:19used in the British
00:44:20language
00:44:21therefore the figure most
00:44:22used probably in this
00:44:23message is e
00:44:24t a o i and n
00:44:25follow in that order of
00:44:26frequency
00:44:27you mean you can read
00:44:28these figures as if
00:44:29they were letters of the
00:44:30alphabet
00:44:31elementary my dear
00:44:32Miss Abley
00:44:33give me one minute
00:44:34and you shall have the
00:44:35message
00:44:36you can read these figures
00:44:37as if they were letters
00:44:38of the alphabet
00:44:39elementary my dear Miss Abley
00:44:40give me one minute
00:44:41and you shall have the
00:44:42message
00:44:44and what is the message
00:44:48Watson
00:44:49this fellow Tobell
00:44:50must have been pulling
00:44:51our legs
00:44:52it's a lot of gibberish
00:44:53i y z l m t h k
00:44:56it reads like an eye
00:44:58doctor's chart
00:44:59Dr. Tobell is a brilliant
00:45:00scientist
00:45:01I saw immediately that he
00:45:02wouldn't send us a message
00:45:03so simple to decipher
00:45:04neither would he affix
00:45:05these top figures without
00:45:06a meaning
00:45:07then it isn't the alphabet
00:45:08substitution code
00:45:09yes it is Watson
00:45:10but with a very clever
00:45:11variation
00:45:12you see
00:45:13the one two three figures
00:45:14means that we skip letters
00:45:15in that order
00:45:16in other words
00:45:17observe Watson
00:45:18the first letter
00:45:19which is i
00:45:20skips one
00:45:21and becomes j
00:45:22the second letter
00:45:24y
00:45:25skips two
00:45:26and becomes a
00:45:27and the third skips three
00:45:28and becomes c
00:45:29j a c
00:45:30j a c
00:45:31j a c
00:45:32o b
00:45:33d

00:45:55holmes
00:45:56this mandora must be important
00:45:57obviously Watson
00:45:58he must have some connection with the bomb site
00:45:59or Tobell wouldn't have taken so much trouble to see that i got his name
00:46:01take down the rest of the message

00:46:16number four doesn't make any sense
00:46:17he must have used some other variations

00:46:22jacob dure
00:46:23professor feral
00:46:24dr kern
00:46:25and this fourth infernal cipher which doesn't fit the code
00:46:29christmas boxes
00:46:34watson
00:46:36i'm beginning to see the plan
00:46:38dr tobell divided his bomb site
00:46:41into four parts
00:46:43just as we brought it back from switzerland
00:46:45he's given one section of the mechanism
00:46:48to each of these famous scientists
00:46:50what a fascinating plan
00:46:52you see
00:46:53each part is useless without the other three
00:46:56and undoubtedly none of these scientists is known to each other
00:46:59professor moriarty also has the code
00:47:02and we must allow for his ability to decipher it
00:47:05we haven't time to break the fourth code now
00:47:08we must get to the first three men before moriarty dance
00:47:10palace crescent first
00:47:11right i'll go and get a taxi
00:47:13will you please wait here till we return
00:47:15thank you
00:47:17here
00:47:18where are you going sir jacob durell live here
00:47:27yes but there's been a bit of trouble sir you can't go in inspector lestrade's orders
00:47:31oh

00:47:40the order only heard fifteen minutes ago
00:47:41we'd better hurry holmes
00:47:42there's still time to save farrell and kern
00:47:43too late watson
00:47:44now this time farrell and kern are dead too
00:47:45what
00:47:47deductions again mr holmes
00:47:48facts inspector
00:47:49oh facts
00:47:51but how do you know about them
00:48:05and i meant you my dear watson
00:48:06this man has been dead for at least two hours
00:48:08and moriarty isn't wasting any time
00:48:09hello
00:48:10this is lestrade
00:48:12put me on the mackety
00:48:14mackety
00:48:16oh this is lestrade
00:48:18do you know anything about two men named
00:48:20uh
00:48:21farrell and kern
00:48:22farrell and kern
00:48:23farrell and kern
00:48:24what both of them
00:48:29oh
00:48:31thank you
00:48:34report only came in two seconds before i telephoned
00:48:39what on earth are we going to do holmes
00:48:41maliarty's got a big start and he's got the code
00:48:43note this watson scotland yard reports two murders that makes three in all
00:48:47but there were four boxes and four codes
00:48:49obviously moriarty hasn't broken the fourth code either
00:48:51what is the name of the fourth man? i can't remember
00:48:52i can't remember
00:49:04what is the name of the fourth man? i have forgotten
00:49:06what is the name of the fourth man? i have forgotten
00:49:08I have forgotten.
00:49:09What is the name of the Fort Man?
00:49:11I don't know.
00:49:13I don't know!
00:49:14What is the name of the Fort Man?
00:49:16I can't remember!
00:49:19What is the name of the Fort Man?
00:49:22Holmes, don't you realize what this means to England?
00:49:25We not only lose the Tobel bomb site ourselves, but Germany gets it.
00:49:29Coventry, Bath, Plymouth, London.
00:49:31Not to mention Norwegian all over again, but with ten times the effect.
00:49:35Don't you suppose I realize that, Sir Reginald?
00:49:40Don't you suppose I'd give my life to decode the last name of that message?
00:49:43There must be some solution.
00:49:45Naturally, Watson.
00:49:47You need to be rude.
00:49:48I need a drink.
00:49:49I'm all in.
00:49:50I can't think anymore.
00:49:51All these letters and figures whirling through my brain.
00:49:54It's all twisted round.
00:49:59Twisted round!
00:50:01That's it?
00:50:02That's what?
00:50:03Twisted round, you said.
00:50:04It's so simple, I never thought of it.
00:50:07Reverse the slide.
00:50:10You see, gentlemen?
00:50:12These figures are now identical with the first three names.
00:50:15In other words, all the figures of name number four are written backwards and read from right to left.
00:50:21Until we reverse the slide, when they read correctly from left to right.
00:50:26Now, let's work on it.
00:50:27Pencil, Watson.
00:50:27But, um, why would Dr. Tobel want to reverse the figures of number four?
00:50:35An added precaution, Lestrade, in case the cipher should fall into the wrong hands.
00:50:38Oh, quite a compliment to you, Mr. Holmes.
00:50:41I mean, uh, Tobel taking for granted that you would recognize the difference.
00:50:47Oh.
00:50:47F-R-E-D-E-R-I-C-K-H-O-F-F-N-E-R.
00:50:58Frederick Hoffman.
00:50:59S-L-O-A-N-E-S-Q-U...
00:51:04Sloan Square.
00:51:06We'll just leave it once.
00:51:07Wait a minute.
00:51:13Information?
00:51:14Will you please give me the address of a Frederick Hoffman in Sloan Square?
00:51:19I'll break this code.
00:51:23I'll find the name of that fourth man before Holmes does.
00:51:27Ah, there is not much more time.
00:51:29The submarine is to pick us up off Sheerness in six hours.
00:51:32I've beaten home so far.
00:51:34We'll meet your confounded submarine with the bomb site intact.
00:51:37But Tobel is unconscious again.
00:51:40As last resort, we could abandon the code and take Tobel to Germany.
00:51:44You'll try Tobel again in here.
00:51:50Wait.
00:51:52Spilling that glass of water was a very fortunate accident, my dear street brawler.
00:51:57Dr. Tobel's perversion of the cipher was so simple that it fooled us.
00:52:00I was looking for something ingenious.
00:52:03This is ingenious.
00:52:05He simply reversed the cipher.
00:52:09F-R-E-D-E-R-I-C-K-H-O-F-F-N-E-R-S-L-O-A-N-E...
00:52:28Frederick Hoffner, Sloan Square.
00:52:34Of course!
00:52:36Hoffner would be the perfect selection.
00:52:38Then you want us to, uh, tend to Hoffner?
00:52:40No, we can use Hoffner.
00:52:42He's a brilliant scientist.
00:52:43If Dr. Tobel doesn't recover from your persuasion,
00:52:46Hoffner will be able to put the four parts together.
00:52:49You and Godfrey will call on Hoffner,
00:52:51and you will bring him here,
00:52:52with the fourth section of the bomb site.
00:52:54Hurry!
00:52:54Put up your hands, Professor Hoffner.
00:53:17Come on.
00:53:17Come on.
00:53:18Come on.
00:53:18Come on.
00:53:48I'll take the box.
00:54:18We'll meet again, Professor.
00:54:28Sherlock Holmes.
00:54:31An improvement on the other makeup.
00:54:34Don't you think so, Professor?
00:54:36So you think you've beaten me, Holmes?
00:54:39I have.
00:54:40The real Hoffner is safely in the hands of Scotland Yard.
00:54:43But I still have Torbelle.
00:54:44Now I shall sell Germany the inventor instead of the invention.
00:54:48You've learned nothing from him in spite of all your torture.
00:54:51Otherwise you wouldn't be trying so desperately to collect the four sections of the bombsite.
00:54:55A keen observation, my dear Holmes.
00:54:57But observe further that you are now in my hands.
00:55:01And I have profited by my last mistake of allowing underlings to attend to you.
00:55:06Holmes took my place.
00:55:07And while the Nazis were inside with him,
00:55:09he instructed me to attach a small apparatus underneath their car.
00:55:12He's a brilliant fellow, Holmes.
00:55:14I helped him prepare the apparatus.
00:55:15Did you really, Doctor?
00:55:16That is, I poured in the luminous paint when you told me to.
00:55:19Very clever, Dr. Watson.
00:55:20The apparatus drips at regular intervals,
00:55:22leaving a trail of luminous paint.
00:55:24I see.
00:55:24Leading us to Moriarty and Mr. Holmes.
00:55:26Why are you so confident, Professor?
00:55:40Only a suggestion.
00:55:41But how do you know that Scotland Yard isn't waiting to break in at this very moment?
00:55:44I selected this address with special care.
00:55:47No one can find it.
00:55:49Not even Scotland Yard.
00:55:51Relax, Mr. Holmes.
00:55:53There's no escape.
00:55:56I might suddenly dash to the window,
00:56:00break it open, and shout to a passer-by.
00:56:02There are no passers-by.
00:56:04The glass in the window is unbreakable,
00:56:06and the room is soundproof.
00:56:09This is my stronghold, Holmes,
00:56:11equipped with all the modern conveniences
00:56:13of a successful man in my profession.
00:56:16Sit down.
00:56:17They fade it out again, sir.
00:56:33I don't understand, Lestrade.
00:56:35It stopped,
00:56:37and then it started,
00:56:39and now it's stopped again.
00:56:41Maybe the apparatus broke down.
00:56:43Oh, a suggestion, gentlemen.
00:56:45At a crossroad back there,
00:56:46a car might have gone over the spots of paint,
00:56:49picked some up on the tyres,
00:56:50and left this false trail.
00:56:52That's just what I was about to suggest myself.
00:56:55Very well.
00:56:56We'll try it.
00:56:56Now, Holmes, what shall it be?
00:57:08The gas chamber,
00:57:09the cup of hemlock,
00:57:10or just a simple bullet through your brain?
00:57:13You disappoint me, Professor.
00:57:16You did?
00:57:18Yes.
00:57:18Somehow I always thought that in the end
00:57:23you'd prove to be just an ordinary cutthroat.
00:57:26You know me better, Holmes.
00:57:29Gas, poison, bullets.
00:57:31I assure you, Professor,
00:57:33when our position's reversed,
00:57:35I should have something more colourful,
00:57:37more imaginative to offer.
00:57:40I'm satisfied to be the winner.
00:57:42I shall be alive.
00:57:43Alive, yes.
00:57:45The winner, no.
00:57:46For in the last analysis,
00:57:48I shall have proved the more resourceful man.
00:57:50You didn't trap me here.
00:57:52I came here because I wanted to,
00:57:54to prevent your getting Hoffner.
00:57:56And all you can do in return
00:57:57is to commit ordinary murder,
00:57:59to relieve your sense of frustration.
00:58:01And what, my good Mr. Holmes,
00:58:03could you have conceived
00:58:04that would have been so much more colourful?
00:58:07Well, even offhand.
00:58:09I can improve upon your suggestions considerably,
00:58:11but that's only natural, of course.
00:58:13And what is this brilliant idea of yours?
00:58:15Do you know that a man dies
00:58:17if he loses five pints of blood?
00:58:19Yes, of course you do.
00:58:21I should have you placed on an operating table.
00:58:24Inject a needle into your veins
00:58:25and slowly draw off your life's blood.
00:58:29The needle to the last.
00:58:31Eh, Holmes?
00:58:33Slowly, drop by drop,
00:58:35the blood would be drawn from your body.
00:58:36You would be aware of every exquisite second
00:58:39to the very end.
00:58:41You would be watching yourself die scientifically,
00:58:44noting every reaction
00:58:45and in full possession of your faculties.
00:58:49Interesting.
00:58:51Yes, isn't it?
00:58:53I humbly submit, Professor,
00:58:54that to the very end
00:58:55I've been more resourceful than yourself.
00:58:59You've played it to my hands, Mr. Sherlock Holmes.
00:59:02Time and again I've used this place
00:59:05as a haven for friends of mine,
00:59:06injured in altercations with Scotland Yard.
00:59:11I have a fully equipped hospital here.
00:59:32The trail goes this way, Inspector.
00:59:43Drop by drop, Holmes.
00:59:45Drop by drop.
00:59:50In a way, I'm almost sorry.
00:59:53You were a stimulating influence to me.
00:59:57But it was obvious that I should win in the end.
01:00:02Only a matter of moments now.
01:00:05Take Toebell down to the boat.
01:00:07Start the engine.
01:00:18Closer to the end, Holmes.
01:00:21Closer and closer.
01:00:24Each second, a few more drops
01:00:26leave your desiccated body.
01:00:28Envy.
01:00:30Envy.
01:00:32You conceal them, can't you?
01:00:35You're perfectly conscious, aren't you, Holmes?
01:00:39I shall be conscious
01:00:41long after you're dead, Moriarty.
01:00:45Ha!
01:00:46Still the same old, swaggering, conceited Sherlock Holmes.
01:00:50Come on, Holmes.
01:01:02Wait.
01:01:08If Moriarty is a shot, he'll kill Holmes.
01:01:11You keep an eye on the boat.
01:01:13Don't make a move till Dr. Watson and I get inside.
01:01:15Understand?
01:01:16You wait here, Professor Hoffner.
01:01:18Come on, Doctor.
01:01:35The water's this way.
01:01:37Moriarty's rumors must be up here.
01:01:38I can't wait any longer, Holmes.
01:01:55You'll have to forgive the crudity, my friend.
01:02:01This is only the coup de grace.
01:02:05Stand still, Moriarty, you're dumb for.
01:02:06Holmes!
01:02:10On the contrary, Inspector, my men are outside.
01:02:12It's you who are done for.
01:02:14Really?
01:02:15Just take a look out the window.
01:02:18And see for yourself.
01:02:28He'll try to get to the speedboat.
01:02:30Yes, he won't go without Tobel.
01:02:31Come along.
01:02:32Wait.
01:02:33Here's Dr. Tobel, Inspector.
01:02:51He ain't too badly hurt.
01:02:52Thank heavens for that.
01:02:54Look after him, will you, Hoffner?
01:02:55I'll take him to the car.
01:02:56Well, I expected you, but not with my revolver.
01:03:18You'll realize, of course, when I was brought into the room blindfolded, I heard the mechanism of this door.
01:03:23Of course.
01:03:24And yet, knowing that I'd heard it, you planned this way of escape.
01:03:27Not very flattering to me.
01:03:29Suicide, my dear professor.
01:03:30Not at all, my dear Holmes.
01:03:31You see, this is not an ordinary passageway.
01:03:35Oh, my mistake.
01:03:37It has been as equally well prepared as the rest of my humble quarters.
01:03:40I have a trap set.
01:03:42Electric eye principle.
01:03:44My passing through will break the beam and automatically open the highly deceptive trap door.
01:03:49Behind me, of course, my pursuer, meaning you, my dear Holmes,
01:03:54will then be plunged 60 feet into the sewers below.
01:03:57Holmes!
01:03:58Holmes!
01:04:07Poor Moriarty.
01:04:09I neglected to warn him.
01:04:12It seems some careless person came across his trap door and left it open.
01:04:17Come along, Watson.
01:04:18Germany wanted the Tobel bombsite.
01:04:30We'll send her thousands of them in RAF planes.
01:04:34Yes.
01:04:35Thanks to Mr. Sherlock Holmes.
01:04:38And to Mrs. Tobel.
01:04:40And, of course, Inspector Lestrade.
01:04:43Oh, that's all right, miss.
01:04:44Things are looking up, Holmes.
01:04:51This little island's still on the map.
01:04:53Yes.
01:04:56This fortress, built by nature for herself.
01:05:02This blessed plot.
01:05:04This earth, this realm.
01:05:06This England.
01:05:08This England.
