"No rest for the wicked." "Why don't you help Gary with my engine?" "It's overheating." "Good boy." "Mr. Baxter's asking for another extension on the rent." "He's had two weeks already." "Start eviction proceedings." "And Mr. Drew called, wanting to know if you could delay repossession" "until he's found a house..." "Out of the question." "If we do it for him, we have to do it for everyone." "Only..." "Only what?" "He was very upset on the telephone." "Phyllis, listen to me."

"As you can see, we have a wide range of vehicles competing in the race, in a, in a..." "variety of colours, shapes and sizes." "Colours and shapes!" "And sizes." "We'll begin in just a few moments, once the track has been checked for hazards and, erm, that sort of thing." "Been busy?" "I hereby declare this meeting open." "I don't understand this." "How are they all supposed to fit on one track?" "They don't, Mrs. McCarthy." "They go one at a time." "One at a time?" "The clue's in the title." "Thousand-yard uphill track." "The fastest to make it to the top is the winner." "Well, it sounds very dull to me." "I can assure you, it's far from that." "And not a cream tea in sight." "Our first contestant - uh, driver, is Audrey MacMurray." "Good luck, darling." "Driving a..." "Frazer Nash Special..." "1926." "'27." "'28." "I'd love to have a whirl in that." "It has lots of various specifications, which... to be honest, I don't completely understand." "But, as you can see, it's in a lovely shade of blue - Prussian blue, I'd say - which..." "..creating a striking counterpoint to her figgy, plummy red jumpsuit." "Just what I came for - a fashion show." "In any case, it's a magnificent machine, as I'm sure you'll all agree." "Three, two, one - go!" "And she's off!" "Look how fast she's going, and getting faster... and faster." "Gosh, she really is going fast!" "I'm sorry." "It doesn't make any sense." "Why would she just go off the track?" "She wouldn't." "She was an excellent driver." "Hazard on the track?" "I checked it myself, it was safe." "Mr. MacMurray, why don't you wait in the starter's office?" "Let us do our jobs." "I'll make him a cup of tea." "Check the track." "Inspector." "Piece of fabric." "Curious." "Be careful, Madam." "What happened?" "Seems like she lost control." "That's not possible." "She never lost control." "Brake lines have been cut." "Just enough to drain the reservoir before the car got up to speed." "It must've been that mad woman." "Thank you, Mrs. McCarthy." "What would I do without you?" "Let's track down this Harriet Welsby." "Welsby?" "I have the address." "Let's get that arm looked at." "So..." "you and Mrs. MacMurray..." "Burn, did she?" "Alive, I hope." "Initial reports indicate a fractured skull." "Dead on impact." "Well." "Can't have everything." "Tea?" "No, thank you." "Yes, please, three sugars." "No." "We're both fine." "Apologies for the mess." "The house is being repossessed." "By Mrs. MacMurray's company?" "By that evil witch, yes." "Seeing as we're being blunt, about your husband..." "I buried him this morning." "He had a heart attack." "And you blame Mrs. MacMurray for that?" "It was her repayment demands." "He never had heart problems before that." "I see." "And when you said, "You'll pay for it"?" "You accusing me of something?" "There's evidence to suggest" "Mrs. MacMurray's car was sabotaged." "This gets better and better!" "And, of course, I'm a suspect!" "Where did you go after your confrontation this morning?" "Straight home." "Can anyone vouch for you?" "Medusa." "Medusa?" "My cat." "She's around here somewhere." "Shall I fetch her for you?" "On second thoughts, maybe we will have that cup of tea." "Of course." "Fly-fishing." "Your husband's?" "Yes, please don't touch it." "Spiritual guidance only." "Understand?" "Absolutely." "Thank you." "Thank you for coming, Father." "I'm what you call "lapsed"." "Is that a problem?" "No." "Not if you wish to repent." "I'm glad she's dead." "But I didn't do it." "Go on." "When Mrs. MacMurray's assistant called her into the office," "I found the cable cutters, and I tried to cut the brake line." "But I'm not a mechanic." "I didn't know what was what." "Then when I heard someone coming, I ran off." "When I got home, I realised I still had the cable cutters in my hand" "So I hid them away." "An unfortunate set of circumstances which does rather have the effect of making you look extremely guilty." "I am guilty." "I wanted her dead... and now I'm going to hang for it." "And I'll be down there, while my husband..." "For all eternity." "That's right, isn't it?" "No." "Not if you ask for God's forgiveness." "And besides... ..it's highly likely the person you heard... was the real culprit." "I told the inspector there was someone else there, but he doesn't believe me." "Between you and me... ..I'm going to investigate." "Morning." "My bicycle tyre needs a pump." "Thank you, you're a life-saver." "No problem." "Horrible business yesterday." "How are you coping?" "Excuse me?" "You and Audrey MacMurray, you were close, weren't you?" "Is that a question or statement?" "More of a statement really." "A friend of mine said you walked in on him and Audrey at... ..rather an inopportune moment, shall we say?" "And that you seemed very upset." "You can leave now." "If Mrs. Welsby is convicted, she could hang." "That's for the courts to decide." "I believe she's innocent." "And I'm not?" "If you know anything at all," "you owe it to your conscience..." "Like I told the police," "I didn't have anything to do with it." "Harriet Welsby's life is at stake." "Then say a prayer for her, Father, but keep away from me." "Requiem aeternam dona ei, Domine." "Et lux perpetua luceat ei." "Requiescat in pace." "Amen." "I'd like to say a few words." "That would not be appropriate." "Sorry, Father." ""Appropriate" never was my strong point." "Audrey MacMurray... was a cruel woman." "We all know that." "Let's not pretend she wasn't." "It isn't being respectful of the dead lying about them, is it?" "He is drunk." "Mr." "Bakewell..." "She chewed people up and she spat them out!" "And she enjoyed doing it." "Tearing the flesh off their bones." "Eating people's hearts for breakfast." "My heart!" "We were lovers." "Not that she knew what love was." "Or how to care about other people." "I can't be like that." "I won't be." "And I won't let somebody else pay for what I've done." "It was me." "I killed her." "I'm sorry." "Sergeant, would you please take Mr. Bakewell to the cells?" "You'll hang for this!" "Mr. MacMurray, you've given your witness statement." "Now please go home." "You do have the awful business of your wife's affairs to attend to, Mr. MacMurray." "How about a nice cup of tea?" "How about a stiff drink?" "Mrs. McCarthy, why don't you take Harriet to the presbytery?" "There's a bottle of Bordeaux in my study." "Is there indeed?" "Right." "Inspector?" "Inspector, I don't suppose you've managed to identify the origin of the fabric..." "An anomaly, probably... detritus at the scene that got snagged as she was thrown from the car." "But..." "Father, I have motive, means, and opportunity - and a confession." "Whether you like it or not, this case is now closed." "This has got way out of hand." "I'm not happy with this." "Thank you for expediting the paperwork, Mr. Watts." "No at all, Miss Stanwyck." "What in blazes do you think you're doing?" "!" "Isn't that obvious?" "Filthy priest." "You're having an affair." "I don't know what you think you saw, but you're mistaken." "I know lust when I see it." "How dare you?" "!" "You had motive, opportunity..." "the only question is means." "What are you suggesting?" "That somehow you caused the accident." "You're delusional." "Why don't we let the police decide?" "Call them." "He was trespassing on private property." "Spying through the window." "Do it." "Yes, do it." "What's this about?" "He was trespassing." "Snooping through the window," "making baseless accusations." "Horrid accusations." "Horrid!" "It's an act." "What exactly did you see?" "She was...straddling him." "Straddling?" "Don't really want to demonstrate." "So they've been having an affair?" "Exactly." "And you think that makes them" "responsible..." "Yes, I do." "Evidence?" "Nothing yet." "But if I know anything, its human behaviour, and theirs speaks volumes." "An interesting theory." "Hands, please." "Don't understand." "It's quite simple." "I'm arresting you." "I see." "For show?" "No, for breach of the peace." "I've warned you time and time again, but you don't listen." "Turn around." "Hands - now." "Father Brown, I am arresting you for breach of the peace." "You are not obliged to say anything unless you wish to do so, but what you say will be put into writing and may be given in evidence." "Phyllis and Walter killed Audrey MacMurray." "Even if they are having an affair, that doesn't make them murderers." "What's this?" "None of your concern." "Get down." "On the contrary, I'd say it was of Mr. Bakewell's gravest concern." "Don't you see?" "It's all starting to add up - the relationship, the inheritance, the anomalous piece of fabric..." "Enough!" "My God, man, you have been a thorn in my side ever since I stepped into this piddling little parish." "Sticking your head in where it's not wanted, trampling all over my investigations." "I want you to know that I fully intend to go through with these charges, to finally put a stop to your amateur sleuthing." "To the perfect murder." "Hmm." "And the perfect woman." "He must've put something on the course when he ran the safety car, something that caused the crash." "No." "Miss Stanwyck wouldn't have left anything like that to chance." "And anyway, they would have discovered" "a hazard after the accident." "What then?" "What happened when you walked in on Sid and Audrey?" "She fired me." "Afterwards," "I went back to the paddock to fetch me tool box." "I saw that woman." "Harriet." "Trying to find the brake line." "When she ran off..." "I finished what she started." "Have you any idea how Audrey could have got a piece of fabric trapped under her bracelet?" "She wasn't wearing it." "What?" "I bought her that bracelet." "She wasn't wearing it before she ran." "Go, Mrs. MacMurray!" "Sergeant!" "What is it?" "I'm entitled to a phone call." "I have come to visit Father Brown." "What's that?" "To sustain him in his unjust incarceration." "Oh, what do you suppose I've hidden in there?" "A hacksaw?" "Well go ahead - check it out!" "Slice it, why don't you?" "!" "I will." "That is no way to slice a cake!" "Apologies." "I had better go back home straightaway and bake another one." "Sorry to be a bother." "Could you make a little less noise?" "Not unless you've got an oil can under your cassock." "Longing for your glory days?" "That greasemonkey was right about one thing." "She didn't care about other people." "I was just another trophy." "They must have thought I was an idiot." "As if I didn't know they were at it." "Don't be maudlin, darling." "You finally got your revenge." "Be happy." "Besides, we should be grateful to that grease monkey - fortuitously framing himself for our crime." "Bless his heart." "You're wearing her dress." "Well, why not?" "What's hers is mine now." "I was thinking, once the paperwork's been finalised, why not make me a joint shareholder?" "You have to admit, I've got more of a head for business than you do." "I thought we were going to leave, start a new life?" "Why leave when we have everything we need right here?" "Did you leave the garage door open?" "What you think you're going to find in there?" "Something resembling proof." "That looks like blood." "So she was killed inside the car?" "Not quite." "What?" "The final piece of the puzzle." "Is that so?" "I think this fabric is the same fabric that was snagged under Audrey's bracelet." "And I'll be happy to call the police for you this time." "Let's go in the house, shall we?" "What's going on here?" "Mrs." "McCarthy." "Comes in with a cake for Father Brown, knocks it all over the place, then leaves without even seeing him." "Where did he go?" "You two will be on the run for the rest of your lives." "What exactly do you think you know?" "Well..." "I know enough to prove you killed Mrs. MacMurray before the race." "Somewhere private." "Somewhere where no-one could see you." "How does he know that we...?" "Be quiet." "Harriet saw you calling her into the office." "Mrs." "MacMurray?" "It's Mr. Baxter." "Coming." "That's where it happened, wasn't it?" "That's where you fractured her skull." "Phyllis!" "Can't you deal with this?" "He wants to talk to you." "Honestly..." "Mr. Baxter?" "Hello?" "Mr. Baxter?" "Go on." "The next part of the plan was relatively simple." "You dumped the body in the car... ..and then YOU changed into identical clothes" "And you drove up the hill." "And when you got to the blind bend... you positioned the body." "But... you didn't notice that Audrey's bracelet had caught on the material at the back of the car." "So, the scene being set, all that was left was to run the race." "Good luck, darling." "But, of course, you had no idea that an attempt had already been made on Audrey's life." "And your plan to feign an accident very nearly was thwarted when you genuinely lost control." "That's when you injured your arm, wasn't it?" "Your later slip down the ditch..." "That was just another sham to cover up your injury." "Be careful, madam!" "What happened?" "An audacious plan, I'll admit." "But ultimately... as foul as any other murder." "Not so cocky now, are ya?" "We're done for!" "Be quiet." "What are we going to do?" "!" "There's only one thing left to do." "Wait!" "There has to be another way." "Prison - is that what you'd prefer?" "We can lock them up here." "Make our escape." "Start our new lives like we always planned." "That's your answer, is it?" "To run away?" "Pathetic." "Just go with them." "What?" "Go!" "Should've known you wouldn't rise to the occasion." "Feeble little man." "She's been using you all along, mate." "That's the way the world works, sweetheart." "Everyone uses everyone." "I find it heartbreaking that that's how you see the world." "I'm touched by your attempt to empathise." "Even if it is motivated by a desire to see me lower the gun." "Alas, needs must." "Goodbye, Father." "You all right?" "They've seen better days." "Walter!" "Phyllis!" "Stop." "It's not too late for us, Walter." "We can still leave together." "No!" "Just..." "don't." "Walter, why don't you give me the gun?" "You never loved me." "Ah, the penny drops!" "It was all an act." "Of course I loved you." "I still do." "I just got scared." "It made me crazy." "I'll make it up to you, I promise." "Let's go while we still have the chance." "Don't come any closer!" "If you let them arrest me, I could hang." "You'll be killing me either way." "Is that what you want?" "It's what you deserve." "Walter." "You're not a killer." "Forgive me, Father." "If you do this, you'll regret it." "Listen to him." "Just like you regret killing your wife." "I saw your face..." "through the window." "That was remorse, wasn't it?" "Wasn't it?" "Save yourself, Walter." "We'll get what we deserve." "You think this is justice?" "It's subjugation." "You're terrified of any woman who dares to be more than a meek little housewife." "That's why you wanted her dead." "So you could reassert your pathetic masculinity." "Inspector, thank God you're here!" "He was going to kill me." "This is the way to raise money for charity - no noise, no cars and no grisly deaths." "So far." "These buns are delicious, Harriet." "Thank you, Father." " you could give Mrs. McCarthy a run for her money." "Father Brown, Mrs. McCarthy." "I couldn't resist the opportunity to try my hand at gourmet baking." "Gourmet?" "Gateaux Parisiens and a chiffon torte citron." "Otherwise known as "French cake" or "Lemon tart"." "And you baked these yourself, did you?" "Scout's honour." "A likely story." "Inspector, bite of something sweet?" "Thank you, but I'm not staying." "Just came to see the Father." "In private." "Excuse me." "You'll be glad to know that Mr. Bakewell's charge has been downgraded to attempted murder." "The "actress", Miss Stanwyck, is going down for murder." "And her partner in crime, conspiracy." "And what about me?" "Have you come to put the cuffs on me again?" "Alas, not." "All charges have been dropped, and..." "And what?" "The pro sols were so impressed with your help in solving the case they passed on the information to my senior officers." "And?" "They've awarded you this for your help in assisting the police." ""Commendation to Father Brown for his continued service" ""aiding police force in their work"" "Congratulations!" "And about time too." "So, I suppose this makes me your deputy... sheriff?" "Don't push it." "Subtitles by Red Bee Media Ltd Sync:" "Marocas62"
