1:02:00
I'm going to make a drink. You want one?
1:02:02
Yes, please.
1:02:04
If you're all dressed when I get back,
you get the drink, OK?
1:02:12
- Gimme!
- No, no! Not till you get dressed.
1:02:15
You jerk!
1:02:17
I will give you three minutes to get
yourself dressed and get out of here.
1:02:21
If you're not out by then
I will throw you out...
1:02:25
...and you can get dressed in the hall.
Now get started.
1:02:58
The next morning
the grey Humber was outside.
1:03:02
A small man sat in it, alone.
1:03:04
He might be a cop with time to waste...
1:03:07
... or a smoothie in the detective business
trying to chisel his way into my case.
1:03:11
Or maybe he was the Bishop of Bermuda,
disapproving of my night life.
1:03:16
In my office an envelope contained a
brief formal note and a cheque for £500...
1:03:20
... signed for General Sternwood
by Vincent Norris.
1:03:23
That made it a nice day.
1:03:25
I was wondering whether to get
the car put right, buy a suit...
1:03:28
... or pay off some of my creditors, when
the man from the grey car showed up.
1:03:33
Come in.
1:03:36
Maybe you know me.
1:03:37
Sure.
1:03:39
You've been following me around
for the past couple of days...
1:03:43
...like a fella trying to pick up a girl,
lacking just that last inch of nerve.
1:03:48
- Look, I am Harry Jones.
- And you knew a guy called Joe Brody.
1:03:51
How do you know that?
1:03:52
Well, you're too short to be a cop.
You don't belong to Eddie Mars.
1:03:56
Nobody except Joe Brody's friends
would have that much interest in me.
