:11:03
A large brandy.
:11:05
- What're you gonna have, Doctor?
- A pint and some cheese'll do me fine.
:11:09
Let me order us a hot lunch.
We've plenty of time.
:11:11
- Hello, Mr Usher.
- What's good today, Maisie?
:11:14
Stick to the shepherd's, I would.
:11:16
Right. That's two shepherd's pies, please.
:11:18
And two pints.
:11:20
I see our necktie murderer's
been up to it again.
:11:24
I saw the newspaper headlines
as we came away from the court.
:11:28
I wouldn't envy any medical man
giving evidence at that trial.
:11:31
- Why not?
- Surely it's easier in these days of...
:11:36
legally diminished responsibility.
:11:38
In many cases you may be right.
:11:41
But not here.
:11:42
The man who's killing these women
is a criminal, sexual psychopath.
:11:47
And the legal profession has never
really known how to treat them.
:11:50
(Doctor) l suppose
you could call them social misfits.
:11:54
We were just talking about
the tie murderer, Maisie.
:11:57
- You better watch out.
- He rapes 'em first, doesn't he?
:12:01
Yes, I believe he does.
:12:03
I suppose it's nice to know
every cloud has a silver lining.
:12:06
- Oh!
- (Men Chuckle)
:12:08
On the surface, in casual conversation
:12:12
they appear as ordinary, likable adult fellows.
:12:16
But emotionally they remain
as dangerous children,
:12:20
who may revert to primitive,
subhuman conduct at any moment.
:12:25
- Large brandy.
- You mean they'll kill at any time,
:12:27
- just as the mood takes them?
- Exactly.
:12:30
And, being governed by the pleasure principle,
:12:32
they're particularly dangerous when
their desires are being frustrated.
:12:37
- Are you deaf?
- I distinctly said a large brandy.
:12:40
There's scarcely enough in that
to cover the bottom.
:12:41
Actually, make it a triple.
:12:44
l wonder if the police have got
any sort of line on this fellow.
:12:47
Oh, I shouldn't think so.
:12:49
With psychopaths there's
usually no linking motive.
:12:52
Let's hope he slips up soon.
:12:53
ln one way, l rather hope he doesn't.
:12:57
Well, we haven't had a good, juicy
series of sex murders since Christie.
