:17:00
Of course, he failed his test abysmally.
:17:03
He may well have done, sir,
:17:05
but he also must have been
put in fear of his life.
:17:10
Such irresponsible action...
:17:12
warrants a serious charge of assault.
:17:15
I suppose that's marginally better
than the charge of murder...
:17:18
you were contemplating a few minutes ago.
:17:20
- I still am contemplating it.
- oh, come on, Inspector.
:17:22
I told you what happened. After a
few minutes he came to his senses,
:17:25
realized shrewdly that
he wasn't dead after all,
:17:28
and after only a few too many
brandies lurched off home.
:17:32
I'm sorry you appear to find this
all quite so funny, Mr. Wyke.
:17:36
We may not take quite the same attitude.
:17:40
Now, look here !
:17:42
Why can't you see this
from my point of view ?
:17:45
In a sense, Tindle was a burglar.
He was stealing my wife, wasn't he ?
:17:48
Which justified your torturing
and then murdering him, sir ?
:17:51
Of course not. Don't you see ?
It was a game.
:17:54
Just a bloody game !
- Bloody indeed, sir.
:17:56
I achieved what I set out to do,
and that was all.
:17:59
- You may well have achieved murder, sir.
- No !
:18:01
- I believe so, sir.
- No ! I've told you everything that happened.
:18:05
Would you mind if I had a look around, sir ?
:18:07
Crawl about on all fours, if you like.
:18:08
Get out your envelope and imprison hairs.
:18:11
Gather ye blunt instruments while ye may.
:18:20
Now, I ask myself,
:18:22
if I wanted to conceal Tindle's body,
:18:24
where would I put it ?
:18:28
In my good friend Jolly Jack Tar, the sailor.
:18:50
Very amusing, sir.
:18:53
May I ask how you did that ?
:18:55
No. Jolly Jack and I have our little secret.
:18:58
Then may I ask how you made
those holes in the wall ?
