:48:00
I didn't say that.
I didn't say he killed Father.
:48:02
Your father objected to Horn
as your suitor, didn't he?
:48:05
Yes.
:48:06
And if you'd married Horn,
he'd have cut you off without a dime?
:48:09
I suppose he would have.
:48:11
As soon as your father was dead...
:48:12
you became
extremely attractive financially.
:48:15
- Don't. Please, don't.
- Please, Mr. Van Slack.
:48:18
- She's been through too much already.
- Sorry, son.
:48:21
What was the first reaction you saw
on Horn after the discovery of the murder?
:48:25
Why, nothing.
:48:26
He just came to tell me
that Father had been killed.
:48:30
Yes, then what?
:48:32
Then he said to say that we were together
when it happened...
:48:35
- so the police wouldn't bother me.
- He said that?
:48:37
Yes, he was only trying
to protect me, and...
:48:40
He was trying to protect himself, child.
:48:43
No, he couldn't have. Freddie.
:48:46
Take it easy, Lois.
:48:50
Maybe Father was right about Dudley,
and I wouldn't listen to him.
:48:55
Oh, poor Father.
:48:58
All right.
:49:01
- Well, I guess that does it.
- Does what?
:49:05
- Well, don't you get it?
- No.
:49:08
We know that Horn and Church
are enemies.
:49:10
When Church starts to threaten MacFay,
Horn sees a chance to frame him.
:49:15
He kills MacFay using
the Cuban's knife to do it.
:49:19
If he wanted to frame Church
with the knife...
:49:21
why should he try to kill me when I find it?
:49:25
Looks to me as if you've got two
mysteries on your hands instead of one.
:49:28
- Now you know why I retired. Good luck.
- You're not walking out on me, are you?
:49:32
I'm not walking out, I'm running out.
:49:34
If there were any reasonable chance
for me to help you, it'd be different.
:49:38
But, during this quiet little weekend
in the country...
:49:41
my family's been threatened...
:49:43
I've had a knife thrown at me, I've been
shot at, I've been suspected of murder.
:49:46
From now, this is your case, you handle it.
I'm going back to New York and forget it.
:49:50
Come on, Lois. Come on, Mrs. Bellam.
:49:53
Come on, Freddie.
