1:09:00
...so we've only your word for that.
1:09:02
But I heard it all, inspector,
over the telephone.

1:09:05
What exactly did you hear, Mr. Wendice?.
1:09:08
I heard a series of faint cries.
1:09:11
Did you hear anything to indicate
that a struggle was going on?.

1:09:14
What I did hear, inspector, is perfectly
consistent with what my wife told me.

1:09:18
So all you really know of the matter
is what your wife told you, isn't it?.

1:09:23
Now, you suggest that this man
came to burgle your flat.

1:09:26
But there's no evidence of that.
1:09:28
There is evidence, however,
that he was blackmailing you.

1:09:32
-Blackmail?.
-Yes, I'm afraid that's true, Tony.

1:09:34
And you suggest he came in
by the window.

1:09:36
And we know that he came in
by that door.

1:09:39
But he can't have come in that way.
That door was locked.

1:09:42
And there are only two keys.
1:09:43
My husband had his with him.
Mine was in my handbag.

1:09:46
Here.
1:09:48
You could have let him in.
1:09:50
Are you suggesting
she let him in herself?.

1:09:52
At present, that appears to be
the only way he could've entered.

1:09:55
Don't you even believe I was attacked?.
1:09:58
How do you think I got
these bruises on my throat?.

1:10:00
You could have caused
those bruises yourself.

1:10:05
A silk stocking was found
outside the window.

1:10:08
It had two knots tied in it.
1:10:11
Does that mean anything to you?.
1:10:12
I suppose it must have been
the stocking he used.

1:10:15
We found the twin stocking
hidden underneath this blotting pad.

1:10:19
Can you explain why
your attacker should do that?.

1:10:23
No.
1:10:24
Those stockings were yours?.
1:10:26
-No!
-We know they were.

1:10:29
One of the heels had been darned
with some silk that didn't quite match.

1:10:33
We found a reel of that silk
in your mending basket.

1:10:39
Tony, there was a pair
of stockings here.

1:10:46
I've heard of the police deliberately
planting clues to ensure a conviction.

1:10:51
His men were here for hours last night.
1:10:53
They could have taken those stockings
and done anything.

1:10:56
Of course.
Probably wiped his shoes...

1:10:58
-...on the doormat as well.
-Hello?
