00:01:33Good evening, my dear
00:01:41You're more beautiful than ever this evening

00:02:43hello Virginia
00:02:49I told you not to come here this evening Ralph
00:02:56why didn't you want to see me
00:02:58well it isn't that I didn't want to see you
00:03:01you're certainly acting strange darling
00:03:04what's all the mystery about
00:03:05let's go into the library
00:03:08Ralph
00:03:15after dinner we are taking a long walk
00:03:24I'd like to speak to you Ralph
00:03:30what's come over your father Virginia
00:03:38is that why you didn't want me here tonight
00:03:40yes
00:03:41it stopped me cold
00:03:43I'm sorry if I accidentally stumbled on something you didn't want me to know
00:03:46well it must seem weird to someone who's never seen it before
00:03:50it happens once a year
00:03:51he always appeared perfectly rational to me
00:03:54well there's something I must tell you
00:03:57it's about my mother
00:03:58I don't understand
00:04:00well it happened several years ago
00:04:03my father and mother were apparently as happy as two people could be
00:04:07he worshipped her
00:04:08another man
00:04:10the usual best friend
00:04:12it almost broke my father's heart
00:04:15he seems reconciled but
00:04:18he never forgets their wedding anniversary
00:04:20and celebrates it that way
00:04:22guess he isn't the only one who resorts to make believe but
00:04:25it does give one an uncanny feeling
00:04:27it doesn't frighten me anymore
00:04:30now that you know
00:04:33I love you
00:04:38you wanted your coat Miss Kessler

00:05:22if he wasn't Miss Virginia wouldn't bother with him
00:05:24does she plan to marry him
00:05:26I never discuss things aren't my business
00:05:30if you want to stay here I suggest you don't be so curious
00:05:33well just the same I think this is a crazy house
00:05:36and what about those murders
00:05:38Jules here says there's been a lot of them
00:05:40and nobody's ever been able to find out who did the killings
00:05:43you talk too much Jules
00:05:44but I only said that
00:05:45excuse me Mr. Cecile
00:05:46come I'll show you where we keep our linens
00:05:48and then
00:06:00go

00:06:07go
00:06:11go
00:06:12go
00:07:15Oh, Mrs. Kessler, I brought you your dinner.
00:07:19Oh, please, Mrs. Kessler, I've got to go home.
00:07:25Home?
00:07:26I want to go home, too.
00:07:28Oh, but you are home.
00:07:30And as soon as you feel better, I'm going to take you to your husband and daughter.
00:07:35But they never write to me.
00:07:37Oh, but they don't know where you are, Mrs. Kessler.
00:07:40Nobody knows that but me.
00:07:42You see, I found you.
00:07:43I'm running away.
00:07:45We're running away in a car.
00:07:47We're going faster, faster, faster.
00:07:50We're going to crash.
00:07:51We're going to crash.
00:07:52I can't go home now.
00:08:06Can I?
00:08:11Mrs. Kessler, please.
00:08:13Please eat your dinner.
00:08:14I've got to go home.
00:08:16I'll be back in the morning.
00:08:18Good night, Mrs. Kessler.
00:08:19Good night.
00:08:27You're late again, Jules.
00:08:29I'm sorry, Mama.
00:08:32But I just couldn't get away from her.
00:08:36Jules, why don't you tell Mr. Kessler about his wife, that you're hiding her?
00:08:41Oh, I haven't got the heart, Mama.
00:08:43It wouldn't kill him if he saw her the way she is.
00:08:46Poor thing.
00:08:48She'd be better off if she died with that man when that car was wrecked.
00:08:51I guess so.
00:08:52Jules, I've been thinking, maybe she had something to do with all these horrible murders.
00:09:01Oh, she wouldn't hurt nobody.
00:09:04She's like a child.
00:09:06She's still dazed from the accident, you know, amnesia.
00:09:11But she'll be better soon.
00:09:12Then I'll take her home.
00:09:13But if they found out I've been hiding her,
00:09:25they might think I had something to do with the murder.
00:09:28Jules, you must tell Mr. Kessler.
00:09:30Oh, no, no, Mama.
00:09:32We must never tell anyone.
00:09:36Never.
00:09:37Never.
00:09:43Sure you won't come in?
00:09:52No, thanks, darling.
00:09:53I think I'd better run along.
00:09:54Good night, Ralph.
00:09:58Oh, Virginia.
00:09:59Shall I put your car away?
00:10:00No, thanks.
00:10:01Evans will take care of it.
00:10:02All right.
00:10:02Good night.
00:10:06Good evening, Mr. Virginia.
00:10:07Will you please put my car in the garage when you have a moment?
00:10:10Yes, miss.
00:10:13Hello, Casanova.
00:10:30Have you gone crazy?
00:10:38The only chance I had to see you.
00:10:40You ignored my letters and my telephone calls.
00:10:42Did you think that you could get rid of me as easy as all that?
00:10:46Be quiet.
00:10:46They'll hear you.
00:10:47You bet they will.
00:10:48And you're going to listen to me, too.
00:10:50I'm not giving up to that Kessler girl or anybody else.
00:10:53This is different, Cecile.
00:10:55I never said I loved you.
00:10:58Are you in love with her?
00:10:59Yes.
00:11:00Well, you're not marrying her, understand?
00:11:02Nothing's going to stand in the way of my happiness.
00:11:04Not even you.
00:11:07Don't threaten me.
00:11:08She'll have to know about her sooner or later.
00:11:18And besides, I'll make you a good wife, Ralph.
00:11:21I promise I will.
00:11:22Guess what?
00:11:38What?
00:11:39I'm in love.
00:11:40Ralph?
00:11:41Yes, Dad?
00:11:42He's a fine boy.
00:11:45I am so happy for you, my dear.
00:11:47Oh, he hasn't asked me to marry him yet, but he will.
00:11:49I know he will.
00:11:50Oh, good night, my pet.
00:11:52Good night, see you.
00:11:54Good night, Evans.
00:11:55Good night, Miss Virginia.
00:11:57Can I do anything for you, sir, before I retire?
00:12:00What happened to your hand, Evans?
00:12:02Oh, nothing, sir.
00:12:03I heard it when I was putting Miss Virginia's car in the garage.
00:12:06Did anything got it?
00:12:07Oh, the bandage.
00:12:08Oh, you may have an infection.
00:12:13How's that?
00:12:14Just like new, sir.
00:12:16I guess I'll eat for a while.
00:12:18Good night, Evans.
00:12:19Good night, sir.
00:12:22Oh, yes, Evans.
00:12:25Thank you for the dinner.
00:12:28Yes, sir.
00:12:28No, no, no.
00:12:38Oh, yes.
00:12:43Ah, yes.
00:12:53Oh, yes, Morris.

00:18:12THE END
00:18:13Mr. Kessler
00:18:14Yes
00:18:15Something terrible
00:18:17has happened
00:18:18I tried to wake the new maid
00:18:20I think she's dead
00:18:22Dead?
00:18:24How did it happen?
00:18:26I don't know, sir
00:18:27I thought she was taking her exercises
00:18:30Call the police
00:18:31I see what I can do
00:18:32Yes, sir
00:18:38Well, Mr. Kessler
00:18:39We're up to our ears in another one
00:18:41The girl was killed the same way as the chauffeur six months ago
00:18:44The only thing we could find was this note
00:18:46Left by some fellow who wanted to give her the air
00:18:48It's terrible, Lieutenant
00:18:50She was so young
00:18:53If we could find out who killed Cecile
00:18:55We have the one who committed all the other murders
00:18:57That's easier said than done
00:18:59There's never been fingerprints
00:19:00To say nothing of mortars
00:19:03What gets me, Mr. Kessler
00:19:04Is why you refused to move out of this place
00:19:06Sentimental reasons
00:19:09There's nothing very sentimental about a house
00:19:11Where anything could happen and usually does
00:19:13My mother lived here, Lieutenant
00:19:15Oh, I see
00:19:21You're the gardener?
00:19:22Yes, but I wasn't here
00:19:23I went home early
00:19:24You see, I live with my wife
00:19:25All right, all right, all right
00:19:26Yes
00:19:27And please don't try to see me
00:19:30Signed Ralph
00:19:31Ralph?
00:19:32Do you know him?
00:19:34Oh, I'm certain I don't
00:19:36Well, the name startled me
00:19:37I'm practically engaged to a Ralph
00:19:43Do you notice anything unusual last night, Evans?
00:19:46Well, maybe I've been that say
00:19:49Let's have it, Evans
00:19:50When I was putting the roaster in the garage
00:19:53I saw Cecile talk to Mr. Dixon
00:19:56That's Miss Virginia's Ralph
00:19:59Go on
00:20:01I didn't mean to listen
00:20:02But they were talking loud
00:20:04Then I heard him say that he never loved her
00:20:08And she said she wasn't going to let him marry anyone else
00:20:11That made him real mad
00:20:13And said nothing was going to stand between him and his happiness
00:20:17Not even her
00:20:18I knew Cecile a couple of years
00:20:36She offered me the companionship I needed
00:20:39Then I met you and
00:20:41Fell in love for the first time
00:20:44I love you too Ralph
00:20:45Surely you can account for your activities from the time you left our house
00:20:49Until the next morning
00:20:51No, Mr. Kessler
00:20:53I had a lot to think about
00:20:55I took a long ride into the country
00:20:57Didn't stop anywhere and didn't see a soul I knew
00:21:00It's most unfortunate
00:21:04All I know is that I didn't kill her
00:21:07There isn't any doubt about that in our minds
00:21:09Don't worry son
00:21:11We do everything we possibly can
00:21:13Order!
00:21:17Order in the courtroom
00:21:19You saw Miss Ward tell the truth, the whole truth, nothing but the truth?
00:21:23I do
00:21:25Yes, I manage the apartments where Ralph Dixon lived
00:21:28Miss Mannix came there often
00:21:31As a matter of fact, I thought they were married
00:21:33I went home early and
00:21:37Helped my wife with the house cleaning
00:21:41The coroner's testimony should convince you that the defendant had sufficient reason
00:21:46For wanting to be rid of the victim
00:21:48It's the truth
00:21:50City will let nothing stand in the way of his happiness
00:21:53Not even her
00:21:54We're doing everything we possibly can
00:22:14Tomorrow we're going to see the governor
00:22:16And I'm sure something can be done
00:22:18But Governor, the man is innocent
00:22:21If you would only grant a stay of execution
00:22:25If you knew him, you'd realize he couldn't possibly be a murderer
00:22:29I'm sorry
00:22:31I've gone over the facts in the case
00:22:33And unless you can present some new evidence
00:22:35There's nothing I can do
00:22:41The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want
00:22:45He maketh me to lie down in green pastures
00:22:48He leadeth me beside the still waters
00:22:53He restoreth my soul
00:22:56He leadeth me in the paths of righteousness
00:23:00For his name's sake
00:23:02Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death
00:23:07I will fear no evil
00:23:09For thou art with me
00:23:11Thy rod and thy staff, they comfort me
00:23:14Thou preparest the table before me
00:23:18In the presence of mine enemies
00:23:21Thou anointest my head with oil
00:23:24My cup runneth over
00:23:26Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life
00:23:32And I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever
00:23:36For forever
00:23:45Yes
00:23:49I see
00:23:56It's all over
00:23:57My name is Dixon
00:24:17Yes
00:24:19Of course
00:24:20I'd like to see Mr. Kessler
00:24:21He's in there
00:24:24He's in there
00:24:35I hope I'm not intruding
00:24:39Oh Ralph
00:24:41It can't be
00:24:43Apparently my brother never told you about me
00:24:46Come in
00:24:47In South America
00:24:48I flew here at once
00:24:49However, I'm afraid it's too late to do any good
00:24:52So you're Ralph's brother
00:24:54Thought you about you
00:24:56But I...
00:24:57I never expected to strike in resemblance
00:25:00Sorry to have startled you
00:25:02This is my daughter, Virginia
00:25:03How do you do?
00:25:05Won't you join us?
00:25:06I've had my dinner, thanks
00:25:08But, uh...
00:25:09I would like to talk to you
00:25:17Do I look pale?
00:25:23No
00:25:25Huh?
00:25:28I feel pale
00:25:34The boy's Evans
00:25:36What's the matter, you thief?
00:25:47Did he have a good attorney?
00:25:48Oh, one of the very best
00:25:50He's handled all of Dad's legal affairs for years
00:25:53Evans, Mr. Dixon, will you have coffee with us?
00:25:58Oh, I'm Ralph Dixon's brother
00:26:01Well, you sure had me going for a minute
00:26:04But you do look like poor Mr. Ralph
00:26:07Coffee?
00:26:08Yes, sir
00:26:12I realize how incriminating circumstantial evidence can be
00:26:15But it's never brought home to me like this before
00:26:18We did everything we possibly could
00:26:20You know, the Thrap and my daughter were quite serious about each other
00:26:24Yes, he told me in his last letter
00:26:26Sit up
00:26:28How long do you plan to stay in this country?
00:26:30Haven't decided yet, Mr. Kessler, but...
00:26:32I would like to find out who killed that girl
00:26:35It's something I would like to know, too
00:26:37Please consider this your home while you're here
00:26:41If there's anything I can do, don't hesitate
00:26:43Oh, thank you
00:26:45I see that the room is put in order
00:26:47Are you sure I'm not troubling you?
00:26:48No, no, not at all

00:27:29Good night, Dad

00:27:45Really, I hope that...
00:27:46It's a pleasure to have you
00:27:47Thank you, sir
00:27:49Well, I guess I'll turn in

00:33:25Better wait here
00:33:26for the coroner, Ryan.
00:33:27Not you, Evans.
00:33:33Hey, where were you on the night of January the 13th?
00:33:37Have you had your coffee yet?
00:33:39No!
00:33:44Well, I guess that's that.
00:33:46No clues, no fingerprints, no motive, nothing.
00:33:49But surely if a man was choked to death, there would be imprints on his throat.
00:33:52Hmm.
00:33:53There weren't any on the Mannix, girl.
00:33:55And they were killed the same way, is that right?
00:33:57That doesn't prove a thing, Dixon.
00:33:59All the others got it and always the same way.
00:34:02The coroner's here.
00:34:03Okay.
00:34:05I'll be right back.
00:34:08What does he mean by the others?
00:34:10Just that.
00:34:11Others have been killed here.
00:34:13Why in the world do you stay in this place?
00:34:19We can't leave.
00:34:21Oh, Evans.
00:34:22Your luggage, sir.
00:34:23I'll put them in your room.
00:34:24What about these other murders?
00:34:26I'll put your luggage in your room, sir.
00:34:27Oh, Lieutenant.
00:34:28What about these other murders?
00:34:29I'll put your luggage in your room, sir.
00:34:33Oh, Lieutenant.
00:34:34Oh, Lieutenant.
00:34:35Yeah?
00:34:36Uh, I'd like to ask you a few questions.
00:34:37Well, there'll be a change anyhow.
00:34:38What's bothering you?
00:34:39There's a rule I'm not a very curious person, but...
00:34:40Oh, I was beginning to get you, huh?
00:34:42Oh, I was beginning to get you, huh?
00:34:43In a way, yes.
00:34:44What about these other murders?
00:34:45Well, there's been quite a lot of them, Dixon.
00:34:46What about these other murders?
00:34:47Well, there's been quite a lot of them, Dixon.
00:34:48Some of the best brains in the department have tried to solve them.
00:34:49But we always do.
00:34:50I have to ask you a few questions.
00:34:51Oh, Lieutenant.
00:34:52Yeah?
00:34:53Uh, I'd like to ask you a few questions.
00:34:54Well, there'll be a change anyhow.
00:34:55What's bothering you?
00:34:56There's a rule I'm not a very curious person, but...
00:34:57Oh, I was beginning to get you, huh?
00:34:58In a way, yes.
00:34:59What about these other murders?
00:35:00Well, there's been quite a lot of them, Dixon.
00:35:01Some of the best brains in the department have tried to solve them.
00:35:03But we always run up against a stone wall.
00:35:04Weren't the other murders brought out in my brother's trial?
00:35:06That was different.
00:35:07That was a cut-and-dried case.
00:35:08Why haven't the police closed the house?
00:35:09Well, he tried to, but Mr. Kessler took it to court.
00:35:12Carries a lot of weight around here.
00:35:13He does a lot of good.
00:35:14And he does a lot of good.
00:35:15Well, I have to ask you a few questions.
00:35:16Well, I don't know.
00:35:17I don't know.
00:35:18Well, I don't know.
00:35:19I don't know.
00:35:20Well, I don't know.
00:35:21I don't know.
00:35:22I don't know.
00:35:23I don't know.
00:35:24I don't know.
00:35:25I don't know.
00:35:26I don't know.
00:35:27I don't know.
00:35:28I don't know.
00:35:29Kessler took it to court.
00:35:30Carries a lot of weight around here.
00:35:32He does a lot of good, too.
00:35:34You think he'd want to leave?
00:35:35I guess he's waiting for his wife to come back.
00:35:37She left him several years ago.
00:35:39An awful scandal at the time.
00:35:41One-page stuff and all that.
00:35:45Poor devil.
00:35:46He didn't have a chance.
00:35:48Well, I guess I'll be running along.
00:35:50Glad I met you, Dixon.
00:35:52Good day, Lieutenant.
00:35:54Well, this isn't a very pleasant way to entertain a guest.
00:35:58You know, Mr. Kessler, I have a feeling that somehow or other these mysterious murders are going to be cleared up.
00:36:05And quickly, too.
00:36:06Nothing would please me more.
00:36:08Your wife?
00:36:10Yes.
00:36:11She's beautiful.
00:36:12I rarely talk about her, but I think about her constantly.
00:36:17She has eyes like Virginia.
00:36:19Her hair, her skin.
00:36:22They were the loveliest I've ever seen.
00:36:25I hope you have the pleasure of meeting her.
00:36:29She'll be back someday.
00:36:32Hello there.
00:36:34Paul was admiring your mother's picture.
00:36:36Father's a sentimentalist.
00:36:37He has every right to be.
00:36:40I'll get it.
00:36:46Hello?
00:36:47Yes.
00:36:48Yes.
00:36:49Just a moment, please.
00:36:51It's for you, Dad.
00:36:55Yes.
00:36:56Yes, I guess I can.
00:36:58Yes.
00:36:59Oh, in about 20 minutes, I'd say.
00:37:02Surely.
00:37:03Goodbye.
00:37:05I'll see you children later.
00:37:06Business.
00:37:07Sorry.
00:37:08That's the only information I can give you, Mr. Kirby.
00:37:10Have you notified his wife?
00:37:11Yes, Mr. Kessler.
00:37:12Poor thing.
00:37:13She took it quite hard.
00:37:14It's terrible.
00:37:15Oh.
00:37:16I want to see the coroner.
00:37:17Yes.
00:37:18And Jules' wife.
00:37:19And Jules' wife.
00:37:20I want to see the coroner.
00:37:21Yes.
00:37:22And Jules' wife.
00:37:23Where are they taking?
00:37:24In there, Mrs. Mason.
00:37:53If you please, sir, may I have one moment alone with him?
00:38:07I won't ever see him again.
00:38:09Well, yes, I guess so.
00:38:12Thank you, sir.
00:38:23This is k���ang, Mr. Mason.
00:38:26Mrs. Mason.
00:38:29You'd better take her out, Mr. Korbie.
00:38:33He's alive.
00:38:34What?
00:38:35He's alive!
00:38:36I saw him move.
00:38:43I'll get the hospital.
00:38:44He will be all right, Mrs. Mason.
00:38:47Steady now.
00:38:48Get him out of here!
00:38:50He is not dead!
00:38:51A doctor will be here any minute.
00:39:02Jules.
00:39:02Please, Mrs. Mason.
00:39:07Jules, listen to me.
00:39:09Did you recognize the man who tried to kill you?
00:39:21It was ghastly.
00:39:37I don't believe I was ever more startled in my life than when Mrs. Mason screamed.
00:39:41It must have been a terrific shock to see him come back to life.
00:39:44Yes, it was.
00:39:45Just a few moments longer, and I would have known who the assailant was.
00:39:49I don't like to bring up the subject, Mr. Kessler.
00:39:54But these murders, did they ever happen in the daytime?
00:39:57No, I don't believe so.
00:39:59I see.
00:40:00You evidently have some reason for asking.
00:40:02Not particularly.
00:40:03I was just curious about that one point.
00:40:07Yes, sir.
00:40:07Sorry dinner is late tonight, sir.
00:40:10But the new cook is having quite a time getting started.
00:40:12That's all right.
00:40:16Evan's been with you long?
00:40:18All of a sudden, yes.
00:40:19Everything's gone wrong today.
00:40:30Now I've burned the roast.
00:40:32Oh, don't get so flustered.
00:40:33You'll be all right.
00:40:34I was so anxious to make good.
00:40:36I want to say.
00:40:37Oh, is that mixing spoon?
00:40:39Here it is.
00:40:40Right in front of me.
00:40:41Thanks.
00:40:42I like it here.
00:40:44It's nice.
00:40:45Everything's so quiet and peaceful, like.
00:40:48Ever read the newspapers?
00:40:50No.
00:40:50They're just full of trash and murders and stuff.
00:40:55What you don't know, we have.
00:40:58It's all right here.
00:40:58Here's your peps off.
00:41:00Thanks.
00:41:00Well, Paul, I'm afraid you have me cornered.
00:41:07You still have a couple of moves, Mr. Kessler.
00:41:09You've met your equal, Dad.
00:41:11Oh, your father just got himself into a bad position.
00:41:13It's your game, Paul.
00:41:18Want to play another?
00:41:19No, thank you.
00:41:20Not tonight.
00:41:20It's getting late.
00:41:22Pardon me, sir.
00:41:23Yes?
00:41:24May I speak to you a moment, please?
00:41:25Oh, yes, certainly.
00:41:30The cook wants to leave.
00:41:31I thought you should know.
00:41:34Why?
00:41:35She just came.
00:41:36She feels that her work is unsatisfactory.
00:41:39She has so much trouble with dinner tonight.
00:41:41Why, that's ridiculous.
00:41:43Oh, I understand.
00:41:45It's her first day.
00:41:46I'll speak to her.
00:41:47I'll say good night, Mr. Kessler.
00:41:49Think I'll turn in.
00:41:50Thanks for the game.
00:41:51Good night, Paul.
00:41:51Good night, Dad.
00:41:52Good night, child.
00:41:54I'll walk up with you, Paul.
00:41:56Oh, glad to have your company.
00:41:57It's a long, lonesome climb up those stairs all alone.
00:42:02Where are you going, Marie?
00:42:03Marie, you can't leave us after cooking such an elegant dinner.
00:42:07Did you really like it, Mr. Kessler?
00:42:09Why, I never tasted anything to eat like that roast beef.
00:42:12Besides, you can't go now.
00:42:13It's going to rain in a minute.
00:42:14Are you sure you want me to stay?
00:42:16Certainly, Marie.
00:42:18Well, I like it here, but I thought...
00:42:20Oh, then it is set up.
00:42:22Wait till you taste my apple pie, Mr. Kessler.
00:42:24Apple pie?
00:42:25My, that will be a treat.
00:42:27Let me take this.
00:42:28You might as well unpack your things, Marie.
00:42:30Yes, sure.
00:42:30Thank you, sir.
00:42:31Not at all, Marie.
00:42:32Good night.
00:42:33Good night, Mr. Kessler.
00:42:35Oh, he's a wonderful man.
00:42:49Now, let's see.
00:42:52What did I do wrong?
00:42:54Good night, Mr. Kessler.
00:43:24Good night, Mr. Kessler.
00:43:54Good night, Mr. Kessler.
00:43:54Good night.
00:43:58Good night, Mr. Kessler.
00:48:54Mr. Kessler.
00:48:55Mr. Kessler, are you ill?
00:49:04What?
00:49:05There's something wrong?
00:49:11Hello, Paul.
00:49:12I must have walked in my sleep.
00:49:24Well, you did better than I could sleep.
00:49:25Well, you did better than I.
00:49:25Well, you did better than I.
00:49:25I couldn't sleep at all.
00:49:28It's raining.
00:49:31Why don't you go to bed, Paul?
00:49:33I'm all right.
00:49:34Is there anything I can do.
00:49:35Is there anything I can do?
00:49:37I think I'll read for a while.
00:49:42I think I'll read for a while.
00:49:43Good night.
00:49:44Good night, Mr. Kessler.
00:49:46Good night, but...
00:49:51Good night, I'll see you.
00:49:56I'm great.
00:49:56I'm out of my life.
00:49:57I'm good.
00:50:00I'm good.
00:50:00Good night.
00:50:04Good night.
00:50:05Good night.
00:50:08Good night.
00:50:09Let's go.
00:50:39Let's go.
00:51:09Well, you look like you had a good night's sleep, Mr. Kessler.
00:51:30I was so tired when I got to bed, I don't even remember climbing in.
00:51:36Dad!
00:51:37Who would do a thing like that?
00:51:47I wonder if anyone was hurt.
00:51:54Nothing could have hurt my father more.
00:52:07It's unquestionably the work of a madman.
00:52:09You all right, Evans?
00:52:13Yes, Mrs. Kessler.
00:52:14Good morning, sir.
00:52:15Where is the new cook?
00:52:17She says she'll go shopping first thing this morning.
00:52:19Have you looked in the room?
00:52:21No, sir.
00:52:23Something wrong, Mr. Kessler?
00:52:24There's a release.
00:52:33She didn't leave.
00:52:34I'm not worried about that.
00:52:36When did she tell you she's going to the market?
00:52:38Last night before she went to bed.
00:52:39Do you think there's any connection between this and what has happened before?
00:52:49I don't know.
00:52:50Have you been through the rest of the house yet?
00:52:52No, sir.
00:52:53Good morning, Mr. Kessler.
00:52:55Oh, Marie.
00:52:56You have no idea how happy I am to see you.
00:53:01I wonder why he was so glad to see me.
00:53:05Mrs. Kessler thought she had been murdered.
00:53:07Oh, he's so sweet.
00:53:08I'm going to start to make that apple pie.
00:53:11Murdered.
00:53:16I can't imagine who would do a thing like that.
00:53:22I'll get it.
00:53:25Good morning, Miss Kessler.
00:53:32Won't you come in?
00:53:41That happened last night.
00:53:42Didn't it fall?
00:53:43No.
00:53:45Find me the person who did it and you've got your murderer.
00:53:48Nobody came into this house last night.
00:53:50Ryan and his boys were stationed outside.
00:53:52Lieutenant.
00:53:54Oh, Lieutenant.
00:53:55Come out.
00:54:18Come on out, I say.
00:54:22It's Ryan.
00:54:23You didn't hear any noises during the night.
00:54:51No, but there's funny things going on around here.
00:54:55Meaning what?
00:54:56Well, it's happened three times now.
00:54:58I put food on the sink, left the room.
00:55:00When I come back, it was gone.
00:55:02No.
00:55:04You ought to hire a detective to watch it.
00:55:09That's what you get for being such an excellent cook.
00:55:12Oh, thank you, sir.
00:55:13Oh, Lieutenant.
00:55:16Yeah?
00:55:17You got something?
00:55:18I don't know.
00:55:19I...
00:55:20I found this in the picture.
00:55:23Anybody else know about it?
00:55:24No, I wanted to speak to you first.
00:55:25Okay.
00:55:27I'll see if I can match it.
00:55:28Keep the others downstairs.
00:55:29Yes.
00:55:35Why not?
00:55:36I agree.
00:55:37Is this yours, Mr. Kessler?
00:55:40Yes.
00:55:41Why?
00:55:41I thought I'd seen it on you.
00:55:43Found it in Evans' room.
00:55:44Well, there's nothing strange about that.
00:55:46There wouldn't be, Mr. Kessler, but it so happens that a thread from this robe was found embedded in the picture.
00:55:51Surely you're not trying to accuse Evans.
00:55:53Oh, it's incredible.
00:55:54You're just trying to make a case.
00:55:55Well, somebody's been doing these killings.
00:55:58Ryan didn't die of heart failure.
00:55:59Don't forget that.
00:56:00When did you give Evans that robe, Mr. Kessler?
00:56:03I don't remember giving it to him at all.
00:56:05But naturally, when my things need bending, he just picks them up.
00:56:07I don't care how he got it.
00:56:09He had it, and he used it on that picture.
00:56:11I'm going to talk to him.
00:56:13Just a minute, Lieutenant.
00:56:14Yeah?
00:56:14If Evans is the man we want, it strikes me you've got to have more evidence.
00:56:18Now, everybody wants to be a detective.
00:56:20Now, wait a minute.
00:56:21Perhaps Paul has some suggestion.
00:56:24All right, go ahead.
00:56:25What is it?
00:56:26Without doubt, the murderer is insane.
00:56:27The picture tells us that.
00:56:29I believe we should call in a psychiatrist.
00:56:31A psychiatrist.
00:56:33You've still got the robe.
00:56:35But before Evans is accused, I'm definitely in favor of giving him a sanity test.
00:56:39What do you say, Lieutenant?
00:56:42Okay.
00:56:43Maybe I'd better take one myself.
00:56:45All we want to know is if the fellow's crazy.
00:56:51That's very easy to determine.
00:56:53Shall we make the examination here?
00:56:55If you don't mind, Doctor.
00:56:56Please tell Evans I want to see him and then go up to your room.
00:57:00Go to my room?
00:57:01Is it possible, Doctor, for a man to be normal, say, for two or three months at a time,
00:57:08then go completely insane for an hour or two?
00:57:10Yes, quite common.
00:57:11This should be most interesting.
00:57:16Now what?
00:57:17A fuse must have blown.
00:57:19I light the candles.
00:57:20The fuse burned out, Miss Virginia.
00:57:34Oh, thank you.
00:57:35My father wants to see you, Evans.
00:57:36He's in his room.
00:57:37Yes, Miss.
00:57:47That'll have to do to me until the lights are fixed.
00:57:50I'll be in my room, Evans.
00:57:55Yes, Miss.
00:58:07I'm sorry, Mr. Kessler, but we ran out of fuses.
