Col. Sellars has reported
the theft of a gold ring.
:20:06
A gold ring. Gee.
:20:09
-Gee, that's tough, sir.
-l believe you know Col. Sellars.
:20:13
-Could you describe him to me?
-You play cards with him?
:20:17
That Col. Sellars. Yes. Yes.
:20:20
Plays cards like an English officer and
a gentleman. He would, wouldn't he?
:20:24
Don't press your luck too hard,
corporal. Just answer the questions.
:20:29
-Did he ever show you the ring?
-No, he never even discussed marriage.
:20:36
-l'm warning you.
-You sure you're not accusing me?
:20:40
-Got a light, Grey?
-No. l'm not accusing anybody.
:20:43
Then can l borrow your Ronson?
:20:47
-Ronson?
-Yeah, it's in your top pocket, l think.
:20:59
Thank you.
:21:02
Well, now, this is new, isn't it?
:21:08
Yes. lt was mine.
:21:10
-We were playing poker. l lost it to him.
-You what?
:21:14
l lost it to him at poker.
:21:16
l had a straight, but he had better.
Tell him.
:21:20
-We were playing stud--
-What were the cards?
:21:23
-His or mine?
-His.
:21:25
-Aces on twos.
-You're lying, Marlowe!
:21:28
Why, Grey, what a thing to say!
lt was pathetic.
:21:31
l thought l had him with a straight...
:21:34
...so l threw in the lot.
Threw in the Ronson.
:21:37
How do you play stud, Marlowe?
:21:39
-Stud?
-Yes, how's it played?
:21:41
-Stud? You mean ordinary stud?
-Yes.
:21:45
We'll show you. There's nothing
like a demo.
:21:48
You see, it was my hole card--
:21:50
-l said l wanted you to tell me!
-Temper!
:21:54
Well, never mind. l don't need
the cards to show you.
:21:58
Four cards faceup.
You can imagine that.
