He treated my centers of speech.
Really, there's something to it.

1:12:05
- I have a psychological impediment.
- He did a swell job.

1:12:09
You talk as good as I do now.
1:12:11
His system is partly mumbo-jumbo
and partly the real thing.

1:12:15
He flatters you. He gets into your past.
1:12:19
You talk and talk and...
1:12:23
That's the awful way he works:
Uncovering a basis for blackmail.

1:12:28
Finally, he asked for the jade.
1:12:30
I agreed. I had no choice.
He knew too much about me.

1:12:33
He threatened to go to my husband.
1:12:36
Sounds like quite a past.
1:12:39
A younger man
than my husband might accept it...

1:12:42
or get drunk or divorce me...
1:12:45
but he's not young.
1:12:46
I think it would kill him.
1:12:53
I couldn't risk it, so I agreed.
1:12:55
Before I could turn the jade
over to Amthor, it was stolen.

1:12:58
The man who took it made it clear...
1:13:00
that if I called the police,
my husband would know everything.

1:13:05
That makes it an outfit
that knew Amthor's methods...

1:13:07
or an outfit tipped off
by somebody close to him.

1:13:11
Somebody who knew what he knew.
1:13:13
- Could've been Marriott.
- I think it was.

1:13:16
If he had thought Amthor suspected him,
he might have taken you for protection.

1:13:20
- Could be.
- I'm sure of it.

1:13:22
I'm sure Amthor decided
to kill him out there.

1:13:24
He may even have counted on you
taking the blame.

1:13:28
It's rough, but I'll buy it up to there.
1:13:30
He'd hand your past to your husband
on a platter if you didn't fork over the jade.

1:13:34
You decided to play ball, but the jade
was stolen with Marriott's help.

1:13:38
Amthor caught on and killed him.
What happens now?

1:13:41
I want you to help me kill Amthor.
1:13:48
It's the only way I'll ever have peace.
1:13:50
Once these things get started,
they go on and on.

1:13:53
He'll never be satisfied
even if he gets the jade.

1:13:55
Why me? Because I'm handy
and know how to use a gun?

1:13:59
Or just because I wear pants?
