- I told you to keep people out.
- She busted right by me.

:35:05
- Pardon me.
- That key's mine.

:35:06
It wasn't Paul's. I gave it to him.
:35:09
Oh, so that's how you got in here.
:35:11
This girl was in it with you.
Who are you?

:35:13
- I work here.
- Nice work.

:35:15
He came to get evidence.
That's all. I helped him.

:35:17
I knew it was wrong,
but it isn't murder.

:35:20
Nicky, do something before they both
convict themselves.

:35:23
- Is this your gun?
- No.

:35:25
No, it was Whitey's.
And it hasn't been fired.

:35:27
So it hasn't been fired.
:35:31
Then it's using a new perfume,
Burnt Powder.

:35:34
I didn't fire it. I came up here
to get Stephens' records...

:35:38
...and I found them in his desk
in a black book.

:35:41
- Where is it?
- Barrow took it. Why, he had the gun.

:35:44
There's no book in Stephens' desk,
on you or in Barrow's pockets.

:35:47
Paul's telling the truth.
There was a book.

:35:49
Ask Mr. Stephens. Or Mr. Macy.
:35:51
When I get to them.
:35:53
I sure wish that watchman could
describe the guy he almost caught.

:35:57
Almost caught?
:35:58
Someone was running down the stairs
right after the shot was fired.

:36:02
It was too dark to get a description.
Let's take another look inside.

:36:05
Keep those lovebirds apart.
They might try to cook up a story.

:36:08
What if they do?
You didn't care for the first one.

:36:14
Nicky will get you out of it,
just like that.

:36:20
Well, doc?
:36:22
Shot.
:36:23
No kidding.
I thought maybe he drowned.

:36:26
Can you tell us when he left
this nice peaceful world?

:36:29
Dead approximately half an hour.
:36:31
There's quite a lump
on the back of his head.

:36:34
- They tap hard in his fraternity.
- A large bruise, not serious.

:36:37
- Well, lucky for Barrow it isn't serious.
- But he isn't supposed to have a bruise.

:36:41
- Clarke claims he bumped his head.
- No contusion on Clarke.

:36:44
He may have struck his head
on the desk, but no mark.

:36:47
Which often happens. What about
the angle of the bullet? Downwards?

:36:51
- How did you know that?
- Very simple.

:36:53
Paul is only a little taller
than Whitey...

:36:55
...so I figure he must have been
hanging on the chandelier...

:36:58
...when he shot him,
or standing on a chair.
