:41:01
- The what?
- The lighthouse keeper's daughter.
:41:04
- What was her name?
- What it all comes down to is this Lois.
:41:08
You're wrong to think
there couldn't be anything between them.
:41:11
They're just making a monkey out of you.
Covering up for them.
:41:13
I'm sure you're right.
:41:15
But what was the lighthouse keeper's
daughter's name?
:41:18
- Letty Finhaden.
- Letty Finhaden.
:41:21
He wasn't in the room with you
when it happened, was he?
:41:24
I say, he made you give him that alibi,
didn't he?
:41:26
No.
:41:30
Mr. Charles.
:41:31
- I'm Van Slack, the Asst. District Attorney.
- Oh, yes.
:41:34
I thought perhaps...
:41:36
Well, of course, everybody knows
your reputation...
:41:40
- but if you don't mind...
- Not at all.
:41:43
Well, I'm a little confused.
:41:46
The lamp torn away,
a glass of water knocked over.
:41:51
Seems to have been quite a struggle.
:41:53
But, nobody heard anything.
:41:57
Funny you didn't, Mr. Charles.
:42:01
The way I figure it.
MacFay was lying here reading the paper.
:42:06
He puts it down...
:42:08
he turns off the lamp.
:42:11
The murderer comes in through the door...
:42:13
or the window.
:42:16
MacFay hears him, he grabs for his gun.
:42:19
It was his gun, wasn't it?
:42:21
Yes, he kept it on the table.
:42:27
From the look of this hole...
:42:29
where would you say
the bullet was fired from?
:42:31
I'd figure it come from about here.
:42:36
Then the murderer was already
bearing down on his arm...
:42:38
when MacFay got the shot away.
:42:41
Or it could've gone off
when it hit the floor...
:42:43
after the arm was broken.
:42:44
A paraffin test will show you
whether he pulled the trigger.
:42:47
Yes.
:42:49
The murderer knocked him back
on the pillow with a blunt instrument.
:42:52
Then went after him with a knife.
:42:57
Anything to show
that he came through the window?
:42:59
No, not yet.
