:45:00
Watson please.
:45:02
Just tidying up a bit.
:45:04
This blanket is beginning
to tell me many things.

:45:05
Oh really, you
don't say so.

:45:08
It only remains to
translate them properly.

:45:11
Yes, just as I thought.
:45:14
This blanket has had
a most varied history.

:45:16
It's been on a
many a sea voyage.

:45:18
The latest not
six months ago.

:45:21
Since then
it has been used

:45:22
to wrap a
multiplicity of objects.

:45:24
Carvings of teak wood,
:45:27
candle snuffs
made of pewter...

:45:37
and furniture.
:45:39
Furniture?
:45:40
Yes.
:45:41
Teak wood leaves an
unmistakable stain.

:45:42
Pewter rubs off easily
:45:44
and there is evidence
of wax drippings

:45:47
but what particularly
concerns us Watson

:45:49
is the furniture.
:45:51
Most likely a chair.
:45:53
Louis the XV,
:45:55
in yellow
and maroon satin.

:45:57
What do all these things
suggest to you Watson?

:46:00
Well I would say an
aunt of mine, Matilda,

:46:02
who lives in Brighton.
:46:03
Very old fashioned.
:46:04
Very aged.
:46:05
Exactly.
:46:07
Antiques.
:46:09
We've a lot of
ground to cover

:46:10
before nightfall.
:46:12
Ground?
:46:13
What ground?
:46:14
If necessary
:46:16
every antique
shop in Washington.

:46:18
A-A-N-T-I, here
we are antiques.

:46:20
Antiques?
:46:22
Well what
connection is there,

:46:23
Louis the XV's chair with
this Pattridge girl?

:46:26
This sliver of wood
:46:28
came from a
Louis the XV chair

:46:29
that had once been
wrapped in that blanket.

:46:31
From other evidences
the blanket supplies

:46:33
I deduced that it's been
used in an antique shop

:46:35
and whoever controls
those antiques

:46:37
murdered Grayson and
kidnapped the girl.

:46:39
What?
:46:40
That's it Watson.
:46:44
Come along
:46:45
before the
girl's kidnapper

:46:47
becomes her murderer.
