170,000 pounds.
:26:07
Cash, tax-free.
:26:12
It would take an awful lot of
Tindolini's tonsorial teasing
to raise that kind of money.

:26:18
All right. I'll do it.
:26:20
- Where do you want me to break in ?
- No, no, no, no. Not so fast.

:26:23
You've got to get disguised first.
:26:26
- What for ?
- What if somebody saw you climbing in ?

:26:31
Here ? In the middle of nowhere ?
:26:33
I could hardly find this
place with a bloody map !

:26:35
You never know !
:26:38
A dallying couple, a passing sheep rapist.
:26:41
Besides, don't forget the clues
we've got to leave for the Police
and insurance company.

:27:18
Why, in this house there
was scarcely a weekend...

:27:20
without its treasure hunts, charades,
games of infinite variety.

:27:25
Makeup and dress up--
:27:27
there was virtually no end to
the concealment of identity.

:27:31
- But surely Marguerite has told you.
- Actually she never mentioned it.

:27:36
Well, it was all some time ago.
:27:40
Aha ! A few scenes from some of my books,
:27:43
lovingly recreated by an artist friend.
:27:45
The necrophilic barber of Tunbridge Wells,
:27:47
and the doltish pie poisoner
from the Simple Simon murders.

:27:52
Oh ! And here's my favorite.
:27:55
- Now, this really is ingenious. Do look--
