1:10:01
- Maybe he just didn't have time.
- Oh maybe he just didn't know he was insured.
1:10:08
No. that couldn't be it.
1:10:09
- You delivered the policy personally, didn't you?
- Yeah.
1:10:12
- And you got his check.
- Sure, I did.
1:10:15
- Got any bicarbonate of soda?
- No I haven't.
1:10:18
Walter. I've been living
with this little man for 26 years.
1:10:22
He's never failed me yet.
There's got to be something wrong.
1:10:25
Maybe Norton was right.
Maybe it was suicide.
1:10:28
No. Not suicide.
1:10:30
But not an accident either.
1:10:32
What else?
1:10:34
Look, Walter.
1:10:35
A man takes out an accident policy that is worth
a $100,000 dollars if he is killed on a train.
1:10:39
Then, two weeks later,
he is killed on a train.
1:10:41
And not in a train accident, mind you,
but falling off some silly observation car.
1:10:45
Do you know what
the mathematical probability of that is?
1:10:48
One out of....
I don't know how many billions.
1:10:51
And add to that the broken leg.
1:10:54
Now it just can't be the way it looks.
1:10:57
Something has been worked on us.
1:11:00
Such as what?
1:11:09
Murder?
1:11:10
- Don't you have any peppermint or anything?
- I'm sorry.
1:11:13
- Soda water?
- No, no, no.
1:11:17
- Who do you suspect?
- Maybe I like to make it easy for myself,
1:11:20
but I always tend to
suspect the beneficiary.
1:11:22
- The wife?
- That wide-eyed dame...
1:11:25
that just didn't know anything
about anything.
1:11:26
You're crazy, Keyes.
She wasn't even on the train.
1:11:28
I know she wasn't, Walter.
1:11:29
I don't claim to know how it was worked,
or who worked it,
1:11:31
but I know that it was worked.
1:11:34
I've got to get to a drug store.
It feels like a hunk of concrete inside me.
1:11:38
- Good night, Walter.
- Good night, Keyes.
1:11:42
- See you at the office in the morning.
- Yeah.
1:11:46
But I'd like to move in on her
right now, tonight
1:11:48
if it wasn't for Norton and his
stripe-pants ideas about company policy.
1:11:52
I'd have the cops after her
so quick her head would spin.
1:11:55
They'd put her through the wringer,
and, brother, what they would squeeze out.
