:56:10
There's nobody down here,
l tell you.

:56:12
Come up here, blast you,
and don't waste any more time.

:56:14
Spread out and find them.
:56:33
They must be a mile away by now.
:56:36
Don't do that.
:56:39
Do stop whistling.
:56:44
You can't possibly escape.
What chance have you got tied to me?

:56:47
That question's for your husband. l'll
admit you're the white man's burden.

:56:51
l know, and l can't tell you
what comfort that thought gives me.

:56:54
What's the use of this?
Those policemen will get you
as soon as it's dayligh
as soon as it's daylight.

:56:57
They may get me,
but they're not policemen.

:56:59
- When did you find that out?
- You found that out yourself.

:57:01
l should never have known
that was the wrong road to lnverary.

:57:04
They were taking us to their boss, and
God help us if they ever catch us again.

:57:07
l see. You're still sticking
to your penny novelette spy story.

:57:11
Oh!
:57:13
There are 20 million women in
this island, and l'm chained to you.

:57:16
Listen, once more.
l'm telling you the truth.

:57:19
l told you once in the train. l tried
to tell you after the election meeting.

:57:22
l'm telling you now
for the third time.

:57:24
There's a conspiracy against
this island and we're the
only ones who can stop it.
only ones who can stop it.

:57:28
Think what you've seen happen
right under your very nose.

:57:30
The gallant knight to the rescue.
:57:33
All right, then l'm just a plain,
common murderer..

:57:37
who stabbed an innocent, defenseless
woman in the back not four days ago.

:57:41
How do you come out over that?
l don't know how innocent you may be..

:57:44
but you're a woman, you're
defenseless, and you're alone..

:57:46
on a desolate moor in the dark,
manacled to a murderer..

:57:49
who'd stop at nothing
to get you off his hands.

:57:51
lf that's the situation you prefer,
have it, my lovely, and welcome.

:57:54
l'm not afraid of--
:57:57
For all you know,
l may murder a woman a week.
