:20:00
Thank you.
Thank you very much.

:20:01
-I've been following you ever since.
-Why?.

:20:04
I was hoping sooner or later
I might catch you at something...

:20:07
-...and be able to--
-Blackmail me?.

:20:10
Influence you.
:20:12
After a couple of weeks,
I got to know your routine...

:20:14
-...and that made it a lot easier.
-Rather dour work.

:20:17
To begin with, yes.
:20:19
But you know how it is.
You take up a hobby.

:20:21
And the more you get to know it,
the more fascinating it becomes.

:20:24
You became quite fascinating.
:20:26
In fact, there were times when
I'd felt that you almost belonged to me.

:20:30
That must have been interesting.
:20:32
You used to go to the dog-racing,
Mondays and Thursdays.

:20:35
I even took it up myself,
just to be near you.

:20:38
-You'd changed your name to Adams.
-Yes. I got bored with Swan.

:20:42
-Any crime in that?.
-No. No. None whatever.

:20:45
In fact, there was nothing
really illegal about you.

:20:48
I got quite discouraged.
:20:51
Then one day, you disappeared
from your lodgings.

:20:53
I phoned your landlady.
I said, "Mr. Adams owed me £5."

:20:57
But apparently that was nothing.
:20:59
Mr. Adams owed her six weeks' rent
in her best lodge at £55.

:21:04
Mr. Adams had been
such a nice gentleman.

:21:07
That's what seemed
to upset her most.

:21:09
Yes. That always seems
to upset them most.

:21:12
I say, old boy,
if you want another drink...

:21:14
...do you mind putting on these gloves?.
:21:17
Now, where were we?.
Yes, I'd lost you...

:21:19
...and then I found you
one day at the dog-racing.

:21:21
And I tailed you home to your
new lodgings in Belsize Park.

:21:24
There Mr. Adams became Mr. Wilson.
:21:27
Mr. Wilson left Belsize Park
owing 16 weeks' rent...

:21:30
...and somewhat richer for a
brief encounter with a Miss Wallace.

:21:34
You used to take Miss Wallace out
on Wednesdays and Sundays.

:21:38
She certainly was in love
with you, wasn't she?.

:21:40
I suppose she thought you were growing
that handsome mustache to please her.

:21:44
Poor Miss Wallace.
:21:46
This is all very interesting.
Do go on.

:21:49
July, August, September:.
Apartment 127, Carlisle Court.

:21:53
Occupant: a Mrs. Van Dorn.
:21:55
Her late husband left her two hotels
and a large apartment house, furnished.
