Now, what makes you think
he came from behind those curtains?.

1:01:03
-Where else could he have been?.
-The curtains were drawn?.

1:01:06
-They were.
-Did you draw them?.

1:01:07
No, inspector, I drew them
just before I went out.

1:01:10
-Did you lock the window at the same time?.
-Yes.

1:01:12
-Are you quite sure of that, sir?.
-Perfectly sure.

1:01:15
I always lock up when
I draw the curtains.

1:01:17
How do you suppose
he got in?.

1:01:18
We assume that he broke in.
1:01:20
There's no sign of a break-in.
1:01:21
Our report shows
the lock's quite undamaged.

1:01:24
Mrs. Wendice...
1:01:26
...why didn't you call the police
immediately this happened?.

1:01:34
I was trying to call to the police...
1:01:36
...when I discovered my husband
was on the line.

1:01:38
I naturally thought that he would
call the police from the hotel...

1:01:41
-...before he came here.
-Didn't it occur to you to call a doctor?.

1:01:46
-No.
-Why ever not?.

1:01:49
-He was dead.
-How did you know that?.

1:01:52
I--
1:01:53
-It was obvious.
-Did you feel his pulse?.

1:01:55
No. Of course I didn't.
1:01:57
Anyone would have
realized he was dead.

1:01:59
-Just one look at those staring eyes--
-So you did see his face after all.

1:02:03
I saw his eyes!
I can't remember his face!

1:02:06
Inspector, my wife obviously
had never seen this man before.

1:02:09
And if he didn't come in by those windows,
how did he get in?.

1:02:14
As a matter of fact, we're quite certain
that he came in by this door.

1:02:19
But it was locked.
1:02:20
Margot, did you open that door
at all after we'd gone?.

1:02:24
-No.
-How many keys are there to this door, sir?.

1:02:26
Only two. Mine was in my handbag,
and you had yours with you.

1:02:31
Yes, that's right.
1:02:32
-Has the caretaker got a key?.
-No.

1:02:34
Do you employ a charwoman?.
1:02:36
Yes, but she hasn't got one either.
1:02:38
I'm always here when she comes.
1:02:40
What makes you think
he came in this way?.

1:02:43
-His shoes.
-His shoes?.

1:02:47
The ground was soaking wet last night.
1:02:49
And if he'd come in by the garden,
he'd have left mud all over the carpet.

1:02:52
As it is, he didn't
leave any marks at all...

1:02:55
...because he wiped his shoes
on the front doormat.

1:02:57
-How can you tell?.
-It's a fairly new mat...

1:02:59
...and some of its fibers
came off on his shoes.
