"THREE MONTHS AGO" "THE NIGHT THAT WYNANT CAUGHT YOU" "IN JULIA'S APARTMENT, MORELLI" "HE DISCOVERED JULIA WAS CHEATING ON HIM" "AND SPLITTING IT WITH SOME MAN." "THAT MAN WAS..." "TANNER." "OH, I'M SO SORRY, TANNER." "DON'T YOU WANT SOME WINE?" "NO." "REALLY, MR. CHARLES," "I HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH THIS." "TANNER, SIT DOWN." "THAT'S ALL RIGHT, TANNER." "YOU'RE DRIVING ME CRAZY." "OH, NOW, LET ME SEE." "WHERE WAS I?" "OH, YES." "WYNANT WENT TO FIND THE MAN" "HE ACCUSED OF HAVING CHEATED HIM." "THAT MAN, KNOWING HE WAS CAUGHT DEAD TO RIGHTS" "AND WITH PRISON STARING HIM IN THE FACE," "TOOK THE ONLY WAY OUT." "HE KILLED WYNANT." "NOW, MR. JORGENSON" "YES?" "YOU'RE NOT EATING." "DON'T YOU CARE FOR OYSTERS?" "I WAS LISTENING" "TO WHAT YOU WERE SAYING." "GOOD." "THIS MURDERER IS VERY CLEVER." "HE STUDIED THIS WHOLE THING OUT VERY CAREFULLY." "YOU'D UNDERSTAND THAT, WOULDN'T YOU, GILBERT?" "YES." "NO!" "HE PLANNED THE WHOLE THING BEAUTIFULLY." "AFTER HE KILLED WYNANT," "HE WIRED MacCAULAY USING WYNANT'S NAME" "AND TOLD HIM TO CLOSE THE SHOP." "WHICH I DID." "NATURALLY." "THEN HE DESTROYED ALL OF WYNANT'S CLOTHES" "WITH THE EXCEPTION OF HIS WATCH CHAIN." "HE FIGURED THAT SOMEDAY THAT MIGHT COME IN HANDY." "THEN HE TOOK WYNANT'S BODY" "AND BURIED IT WITH ANOTHER MAN'S CLOTHES" "A FAT MAN'S CLOTHES TO THROW US OFF THE TRACK." "HE PUT IN A BELT BUCKLE WITH AN "R" ON IT," "HOPING WE WOULD THINK IT WAS ROSEBREEN" "AN OLD ENEMY OF WYNANT'S WHO DISAPPEARED YEARS AGO." "OH, MORELLI," "WOULD YOU MIND HOLDING YOUR KNIFE SOME OTHER WAY?" "YOU'RE WORRYING GILBERT." "IF THAT KNIFE'S MISSING," "I'LL LOOK FOR IT IN YOUR BACK." "AFTER OUR HERO HAD KILLED WYNANT," "HE HAD A BRILLIANT IDEA." "HE REALIZED HE AND JULIA COULD STILL COLLECT MONEY." "WYNANT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE OUT OF TOWN." "NO ONE KNEW WHERE." "OUR HERO WROTE LETTERS TO MacCAULAY," "SIGNING WYNANT'S NAME," "SO MacCAULAY WOULD CONTINUE TO SEND MONEY TO JULIA." "HE EVEN TELEPHONED MacCAULAY." "THAT FIRST DAY YOU CAME TO SEE ME," "HE TELEPHONED HE WAS IN TOWN." "HE CALLED WHILE I WAS OUT." "WASN'T HE SLICK ABOUT THAT?" "THAT SAME AFTERNOON, JULIA TELEPHONED HIM." "SHE SAID THAT YOU WERE COMING, MIMI." "I WANTED TO ASK ABOUT MR. WYNANT." "EXACTLY." "WELL, OUR HERO GOT TERRIFIED." "HE WAS AFRAID THAT JULIA WOULD BREAK DOWN AND TELL YOU" "HE HAD MURDERED WYNANT." "SO HE WENT TO JULIA, AND HE KILLED HER." "HE LEFT WYNANT'S WATCH CHAIN IN HER HAND." "Is this true?" "I don't know." "Why are you saying it?" "It's the only way it makes sense." "I hope you're well." "HIS PLAN WAS WORKING BEAUTIFULLY." "EVERYBODY BELIEVED THAT WYNANT WAS IN TOWN" "AND THAT HE HAD DONE IT." "THERE WAS JUST ONE HITCH" "A BIRD NAMED NUNHEIM..." "YOUR FRIEND." "NUNHEIM HAD GONE TO CALL ON HER." "HE HEARD THE SHOTS." "HE SAW THE MURDERER LEAVE." "HE KNEW WHO DID IT." "IF HE KNEW, HE DIDN'T TELL ME!" "YOU CAN'T DRAG ME INTO THIS!" "OUR HERO HAD PAID NUNHEIM ONCE TO KEEP HIS MOUTH SHUT." "WHEN NUNHEIM THREATENED HIM AGAIN," "HE BUMPED HIM OFF." "OH, HE WAS VERY CLEVER." "EVERYBODY, EVEN OUR ASTUTE FRIEND GUILD," "THOUGHT WYNANT WAS ALIVE AND WAS THE MURDERER." "YOU CAN SKIP THAT." "BUT OUR HERO HAD JUST ONE WEAK LINK IN HIS CHAIN." "THE TELEGRAMS AND PHONE CALLS WERE ALL VERY WELL," "BUT NO ONE HAD ACTUALLY SEEN WYNANT," "SO OUR HERO PICKED ON POOR MIMI TO STRENGTHEN HIS CASE." "MIMI IS THE ONLY ONE AT THIS TABLE" "WHO CAN TELL US WHO THE REAL MURDERER IS." "MIMI, WHO TOLD YOU TO SAY YOU SAW WYNANT?" "NOBODY TOLD ME." "I DID SEE HIM." "LET MY MOTHER ALONE!" "WHAT WERE YOU PAID?" "IT'S TRUE." "I DID SEE HIM." "HE ISN'T DEAD!" "YOU'RE LYING." "YOU'D DO ANYTHING FOR MONEY." "YOU WERE GETTING A GOOD PRICE FOR SAYING YOU SAW WYNANT." "YOU FIGURED YOU WON'T GET ANYTHING IF HE'S DEAD." "I'M NOT STAYING HERE TO BE INSULTED!" "MacCAULAY, YOU DREW UP WYNANT'S WILL." "WASN'T MIMI CUT OFF IF SHE REMARRIED?" "I HAVE NO RIGHT TO ANSWER THAT." "TANNER, ISN'T THAT TRUE?" "YES." "THAT SHOULDN'T KEEP YOU FROM TELLING THE TRUTH, MIMI." "MRS. JORGENSON, WERE YOU EVER DIVORCED FROM CHRIS?" "NO." "YOU SEE, MIMI," "UNDER THE LAW, YOU'VE NEVER REMARRIED." "YOU'RE STILL ONE OF THE HEIRS." "ARE YOU HOLDING OUT FOR A FEW DOLLARS" "WHEN YOU CAN GET THE WHOLE ESTATE?" "REMEMBER THE OTHER TWO MIXED IN WITH HIM--JULIA AND NUNHEIM." "WHEN HE THOUGHT THEY MIGHT TALK, HE BUMPED THEM OFF." "HE WON'T TAKE ANY CHANCES ON YOU." "DO YOU WANT TO BE NEXT?" "YOU DIRTY LITTLE" "WELL, THERE'S YOUR MURDERER-- MacCAULAY." "MacCAULAY?" "SURE." "WANT ME TO WRAP HIM IN CELLOPHANE?" "COME ON." "GET IN THERE!" "MacCAULAY!" "I CAN'T BELIEVE IT." "WELL, I'LL BE A MONKEY'S UNCLE!" "NICKY, HE MIGHT HAVE KILLED YOU!" "YOU SORRY HE DIDN'T?" "I'M GLAD YOU'RE NOT A DETECTIVE." "NOT A HIP IN A CARLOAD." "WELL, HERE'S TO YOU TWO!" "AND TO YOU TWO, TOO!" "WHY, THE RAT!" "HE CAN'T TOP US." "NO." "TOOT, TOOT!" "SHALL I KEEP THESE FRESH FOR YOU?" "YES, THANK YOU." "HA HA HA!" "MY GRACIOUS!" "IT'S 1:00." "IT'S WHAT?" "IT'S 1:00." "NO, BABY, IT'S 11:00." "IT'S 1:00." "I SET MY WATCH AHEAD." "YOU SET YOUR WATCH TO 12:00, DIDN'T YOU?" "YOU'RE IN NEW YORK, FOR INSTANCE" "NICK." "SAN FRANCISCO IS 3,000 MILES WEST OF NEW YORK." "THE SUN DOES NOT GET TO SAN FRANCISCO" "NICK." "NICK!" "YES, BABY." "DOES THAT MEAN IT'S BEDTIME?" "HA HA!" "WELL, THAT'S A THOUGHT." "OH, WELL." "COME ON, SUGAR." "LEAVE US DO IT." "ASTA." "WELL, GOOD NIGHT, CHILDREN." "GOOD NIGHT." "AND FLIGHTS OF ANGELS" "SING THEE TO THY REST." "SAME TO YOU, NICK." "GOOD NIGHT." "NORA, I CAN NEVER THANK YOU ENOUGH." "OH, DON'T BE SILLY." "GOOD NIGHT." "GOOD NIGHT." "GOSH, DARLING," "I THOUGHT THEY'D NEVER LEAVE." "OH, I THOUGHT YOU'D NEVER LEAVE." "BABY, THE SUN RISES IN THE EAST." "IT SETS IN THE WEST." "IF IT'S 12:00 IN NEW YORK, AUTOMATICALLY IT'S" "NICKY, PUT ASTA IN HERE WITH ME TONIGHT." "HA HA HA!" "OH, YEAH?" "CAPTIONING MADE POSSIBLE BY WARNER BROS."
