:06:01
Now, tell me
what you remember of the seance.
:06:05
- In a nutshell?
- Please.
:06:08
Well - (Clears Throat)
:06:11
About 40 years ago,
you arranged to have
:06:14
your sister Harriet's baby
given away without a trace.
:06:17
And now your bad dreams
and troubled conscience tell you
:06:20
to find the grown-up person,
take him into the family
:06:23
and bestow your wealth on him.
:06:25
- Excellent.
- Thank you.
:06:27
And why did I force my sister
to give the child away?
:06:31
I guess the kid was a -
illegitimate, Miss Rainbird.
:06:37
I don't want you
to think me a puritan, Madame Blanche.
:06:40
But 40 years ago, an unmarried mother
:06:43
was not the commonplace
it is nowadays.
:06:46
And in a family like ours,
:06:48
a scandal had to be
covered up at all costs.
:06:51
I understand.
:06:53
And I'm still sufficiently old-fashioned,
:06:55
and sufficiently protective
of the Rainbird name,
:06:58
to want to seek the missing heir
:07:00
in a private and secret fashion,
:07:03
rather than go to detective agencies
:07:06
and put notices in the newspapers.
:07:08
A most wise decision, Miss Rainbird.
:07:12
Well, now, suppose we get to the reason
:07:15
for my sending for you.
:07:16
I'm 78 years of age.
:07:19
I would like to go to my grave
with a quiet conscience.
:07:22
Particularly as I know
that my only heir is out there somewhere,
:07:27
deprived by my acts
of his true Rainbird name.
:07:31
Will you help me with your powers?
:07:37
If in your heart you believe that I can,
:07:39
then I owe it to both of us to try,
Miss Rainbird.
:07:41
No, I'm too old for trying.
:07:44
I've only time enough left for results!
:07:47
Find him for me, Madame Blanche.
Use your spirit-control, your "Henry".
:07:52
Get through to my sister.
:07:54
Find her son,
whoever he is, wherever he is,
:07:58
and I'll pay you $10,000.
