00:30He said he would wait for a few minutes and then leave a note.
00:38But I didn't hear him go, sir.
00:48How?
00:49She's in Frington for one more week, one, I mean.
00:54What is it in Frington for one more week, one, I mean?
00:56What is it that you are looking for?
01:01I thought we might have something on this Edward Clayton.
01:04You're looking very smart.
01:05Thank you, mon ami.
01:06I'm going to a party with Lady Chatterton.
01:10I'm going to meet the sinister Edward Clayton.
01:12I suppose you think he'll take one look at you and change his mind about murdering his wife.
01:17All things are possible.
01:19Come on, Poirot, admit it.
01:20You're only going so you can be fussed over by Lady Chatterton.
01:23You took this case on simply because of the way she battered you up.
01:26Do you think it is wrong, Hastings, to enjoy the compliments or the battering, as you say?
01:30No, but do you have to show it quite so much?
01:34Not English.
01:36Perhaps it is Belgian.
01:38Hastings, why should I be the hypocrite?
01:40To blush when I am praised and to say like you, it is nothing.
01:44I have the order, the method, and the psychology.
01:49There, I admit it.
01:51I am the best.
01:52I am Hercule Poirot.
01:55And now I think it is time for me to go.
01:58A perfect gentleman must not keep waiting a lady.
02:14I can't see her husband.
02:40I can't see her husband.
02:46Is she speaking with her friend, Major Rich?
02:49Yes.
02:53This is Hercule Poirot, a friend of mine.
02:56Major Rich?
02:57Hercule Poirot, a friend of mine.
02:59Major Rich?
03:01Hercule Poirot.
03:02I know that name.
03:05You're the writer.
03:08No.
03:10Where's Edward?
03:12He couldn't make it, I'm afraid.
03:17Are you over here on holiday, Mr. Poirot?
03:20No.
03:20I live here.
03:22Well, have a drink.
03:24It's all very informal.
03:27Lady Chatterton.
03:28Monsieur.
03:29Merci.
03:31I'm so sorry, Monsieur Poirot.
03:33Edward Clayton is not here.
03:35Eh bien, I can relax and enjoy myself.
03:39Indeed.
03:58Mary used to love dancing.
04:28John lost his wife a few months ago.
04:31My condolences, Major Ridge.
04:35Just as well he's not here.
04:37Your husband, he is unwell...
04:38He's not here.
04:39Your husband, he is unwell, madam?
04:41No, he has business in Scotland.
04:44And does he abandon you very often, your husband?
04:48I can assure you that normally Mr. Clayton keeps a firm grip on Mrs. Clayton.
04:53A stranglehold, you mean?
04:57.
05:26Put on something with a bit of a fizz.
05:28Nobody's sweetheart.
05:30Yes, that'll do it.
05:32Tart. Yes, that'll do it.
05:41Music for second-rate.
05:43Music for second-rate people provided by the inferior races, Ward.
05:50That is not a very pleasant thing to say, Monsieur.
05:56You're not dancing, Monsieur Poirot.
06:12No, no, no, no, Lady Chatterton.
06:14This music is for the young people, with the limbs that are supple.
06:18I'm sure you're a wonderful dancer.
06:21No, no, no, no, truly.
06:23But tell me, Madame, who is that unpleasant man over there with a walking stick?
06:29Unpleasant? Colonel Curtis?
06:32He's an old friend of Marguerite's. Why do you say unpleasant?
06:36I insist.
06:38I insist.
06:39I insist.
06:40I insist.
06:48Ow!
06:50Ow!
06:52Ow!
06:53Justin!
06:54You're nobody's sweetheart now.
07:06They know they beat you down, they'll put down.
07:10Yeah!
07:11Yeah!
07:13Yeah!
07:14Yeah!
07:15Yeah!
07:16Yeah!
07:17Yeah!
07:18Yeah!
07:19Yeah!
07:20Yeah!
07:21Ingham!
07:22Yeah!
07:23Yeah!
07:24Well, Miss Grant, we're more than great times.
07:25Aviyaw cinema and Ernest suggesting that looks really quite nice at all.
07:27This I cannot drink.
07:48That is the way Miss Lemon prepares it.
07:50I put three spoons in.
07:51That's the way Miss Lemon prepares it.
07:53I put three spoons in.
07:55Then Miss Lemon must use a spoon that is smaller.
07:57I'll get it.
08:09Chief Inspector.
08:11Message.
08:16Good morning, Parra.
08:19Chief, you're on a matter of importance, yes?
08:23For you a matter of importance, yes?
08:24For you are up with the bird.
08:26Lark, cup of tea, Chief Inspector?
08:29No, thank you.
08:30Please be seated, Chief Inspector.
08:37Come for my help, I think.
08:40Well, yes, you could say that.
08:45Interview?
08:47Witness to what?
08:50Witness to what?
08:51This is the what?
08:56I'm rich last night.
08:58Yes.
09:00Murder?
09:01Yes.
09:03Murder of Edward Clayton.
09:05Clayton.
09:09Yeah.
09:10Did you, by any chance, did you, by any chance, remark on an elaborate wooden chest in the room where you were?
09:20A Spanish chest, I believe it's called.
09:24I don't think.
09:25A manservant, Burgoyne, discovered the body inside this chest when he was cleaning the room.
09:31Clayton's blood had seeped into the carpet.
09:34He'd been stabbed through the eye, straight into the brain.
09:37I don't know if he was cleaning the room.
09:39I don't know if he was cleaning the room.
09:40I don't know if he was cleaning the room.
09:41I don't know if he was cleaning the room.
09:42The best of you listened to music and drank cocktails music and drank cocktails and danced or whatever it is you get up to, yes?
09:51It's all pretty, Mick.
09:55It's revolting.
09:58It's revolting.
10:03Chief Inspector.
10:05Rich was in love with Marguerite Clayton.
10:08That was the motive.
10:09With Marguerite Clayton.
10:11That was the motive.
10:12And he had the opportunity.
10:14Clayton called round to see him a few hours before the first guests arrived.
10:17You think that Major Rich, he came home, he killed Edward Clayton, put the body in the chest, and then later he entertained his guests in the same room?
10:25That's about the size of it.
10:27No.
10:28No, Chief Inspector.
10:29And again, I say, no.
10:34That Major Rich killed Edward Clayton.
10:37Killed Edward Clayton.
10:38I swear to heaven, Mr. Ben.
11:02Have you any idea why Edward Clayton should have wished to see you?
11:06None at all.
11:08According to Marguerite, Mrs. Clayton, he was on his way to Scotland.
11:14Had you ever discussed Madam Clayton with her husband?
11:18Why should I do that, Mr. Poirot?
11:23Forgive me, Major Rich, but how long ago is it since your wife died?
11:29I know what you're insinuating, Mr. Poirot, but there was never anything improper between us.
11:34Hmm?
11:34Uh, Colonel Curtis, uh, Colonel Curtis will see you now, sir.
11:41Uh, Colonel Curtis, uh, Colonel Curtis will see you now, sir.
11:45Uh, Colonel Curtis, uh, Colonel Curtis will see you now, sir.
