:26:01
Well, Mr. Alua...
:26:07
I wanted to say that when I spoke
to Madeleine, she was very frightened.
:26:15
Horácio Lobo had been at her house
to talk to her husband...
:26:18
...a shady character.
:26:21
She was afraid that something
might happen to her.
:26:25
But since she'd asked me
not to interfere,
:26:29
I couldn't take measures
to protect her.
:26:34
I was at your friend Pratas'
restaurant last night, as you know.
:26:41
Madeleine went to my house
looking for me.
:26:43
She sat waiting by the door,
:26:47
until she gave up and left me a note
:26:51
saying she'd waited and
that she'd phone me later.
:26:57
I spent all night beside the phone,
but it never rang.
:27:01
Little did I know what was happening
to her during those hours...
:27:04
Wait a minute. Are you saying that
you went looking for her?
:27:08
Exactly.
:27:12
But why?
:27:14
Why?
:27:17
Because I was curious.
:27:22
Because I was a detective.
:27:24
Maybe even out of spite...
:27:29
I'll tell you something, Mr. Alua...
:27:31
The inspector who'll be taking
my place, Figueiredo, is a real bozo,
:27:35
a strutting peacock, who only wants
to get his face on television...
:27:41
I don't like him. I can't help it,
it's like an instinct.
:27:45
He's the one handling the robbery.
:27:50
Do you know what my revenge is?
:27:57
That smug little schoolboy graduate,
with all his diplomas and computers
