:06:01
- What are you doing?
- It's not locked.

:06:04
All the better. It's more dangerous.
And the lock's too old. It won't work.

:06:08
I wish it would.
I wish we had him out of here.

:06:11
I wish it were somebody else.
:06:13
It's a trifle late for that, don't you think?
:06:17
Whom would you have preferred,
Kenneth?

:06:20
I don't know,
I suppose anyone was as good...

:06:23
or as bad as any other.
:06:26
You, perhaps. You frighten me.
:06:30
You always have,
from that very first day in prep school.

:06:34
Part of your charm, I suppose.
:06:40
I'm only kidding, Brandon.
:06:42
I obviously can't take it as well as you,
so I'm turning on you a little.

:06:47
- That's rather foolish, isn't it?
- Yes, very.

:06:52
May I have a drink now?
:06:56
By all means. This is an occasion.
It calls for champagne.

:07:00
- Champagne?
- I put some in the icebox.

:07:03
- When did you put it there?
- Just before David arrived.

:07:06
- You knew it would work.
- Of course.

:07:09
You know I never did anything
unless I did it perfectly.

:07:12
I've always wished
for more artistic talent.

:07:15
Well, murder can be an art too.
:07:18
The power to kill can be just
as satisfying as the power to create.

:07:24
Phillip, do you realise we've actually
done it, exactly as we planned?

:07:29
And not a single thing has gone wrong.
It was perfect.

:07:33
- Yes.
- An immaculate murder!

:07:35
We've killed for the sake of danger
and for the sake of killing.

:07:39
We're alive, truly and wonderfully alive.
:07:42
Champagne can't equal us,
or the occasion.

:07:45
I'll take it, though.
:07:47
You aren't frightened any more, are you?
:07:49
Neither of us can have fear.
:07:51
That's the difference
between us and them.

:07:53
They talk about committing
the perfect crime but don't do it.

:07:56
Nobody commits a murder just for...
the experiment of committing it.
