1:17:07
- That's quite an allegation,
- I have a few more,
1:17:11
Oh?
1:17:13
You want the compact because
you had given it to that woman
1:17:16
and it might be traced back to you,
1:17:20
- I think she was your wife,
- Do you?
1:17:24
You killed her after you had written
that letter to Emma,
1:17:28
- You signed it Martine Ackenthorpe,
- Why should I do that?
1:17:34
The murder - so that you would then
be free to marry Emma,
1:17:39
The letter - so that people would
think the dead woman was Martine
1:17:43
and look among the family
for the killer...
1:17:45
,, never at you,
1:17:55
How did you arrive
at this fascinating hypothesis?
1:17:58
It was I who found her body,
1:18:00
Martine was, or is, for all I know,
a Normandy peasant,
1:18:05
The dead woman
had never worked on a farm,
1:18:09
I saw her hands,
1:18:11
- Go on,
- Certainly,
1:18:14
You proceeded to augment
your prospects...
1:18:18
,, by eliminating Albert and Harold,
1:18:21
How, conceivably?
1:18:24
You contrived to introduce arsenic
into my curry,
1:18:27
which I find unforgivable,
1:18:30
knowing that you would be asked
to deal with the after-effects,
1:18:34
Easy then to give Albert
his final dose in the medicine,
1:18:38
And Harold?
1:18:40
You shot him
and made it look like suicide,
1:18:45
Ingenious, I must admit,
1:18:47
More than that,
1:18:49
Now you are here to secure
your wife's compact...
1:18:52
,, a fair case,
1:18:55
Yes, a pity you won't be able
to present it,
