:48:00
And listen to me.
I want you to go back to Barlow Creek.
:48:04
Do nothing, say nothing.
:48:06
Let me look into this matter
in my own, quiet way.
:48:10
And if I need you for anything,
I'll contact you.
:48:15
OK?
:48:19
(Folding Knife)
:48:21
You're the boss, Arthur.
:48:23
Isn't it touching how... a perfect murder
:48:27
has kept our friendship
alive all these years?
:48:31
- You better believe it.
- (Knocking At Door)
:48:33
- (Door Opens)
- I'm sorry to disturb you, Mr Adamson.
:48:37
There are two gentlemen here
to see you, from the police department.
:48:42
Tell them I'll be right out.
:48:44
- (Door Closes)
- Jesus Christ, Eddie!
:48:47
(Softly) Wait here.
:49:01
Arthur Adamson.
What can I do for you gentlemen?
:49:03
Sorry to bother you, Mr Adamson.
:49:05
Andy Bush, Bureau of Inspectors,
and this is Lieutenant Peterson.
:49:09
- Hi.
- My pleasure.
:49:10
No doubt you've been reading, or hearing,
about the Constantine kidnapping.
:49:15
I have a confession to make, Inspector.
:49:17
When I heard of the size of that stone,
my mouth watered.
:49:20
- Professionally speaking, of course.
- (Chuckles)
:49:22
Well, just so you don't feel
discriminated against, Mr Adamson,
:49:26
we're routinely covering every gem dealer
and jewellery store in the city.
:49:30
Well, I'm flattered.
:49:33
Have you, by chance, noticed anything
out of the ordinary, Mr Adamson?
:49:38
Any unusual movement of large -
or small - stones
:49:42
into the markets these last few days?
:49:43
- Absolutely not.
- I see.
:49:46
I take it that you're
going on the assumption
:49:48
that this, uh, "ransom stone"
has been cut up into smaller gems?
:49:51
- That's correct, sir.
- It makes a lot of sense.
:49:54
We think so.
:49:56
If I may presume to make a suggestion,
:49:58
it seems to me you ought to be covering
