:35:12
What does it mean?
:35:14
-That's for you to say, Leslie.
-I didn't write it. I swear I didn't.
:35:17
If the original is in your writing,
it'd be useless to deny it.
:35:21
-Then it'll be a forgery.
-Be difficult to prove that.
:35:24
-Be easy to prove it was genuine.
-It's not dated.
:35:27
It might've been written years ago. If you'll
just give me time, I'll try to remember.
:35:32
Leslie, the prosecution could cross-examine
your houseboys.
:35:35
They'd find out whether someone took a
letter to Hammond the day of his death.
:35:39
Howard, I swear to you,
I did not write this letter.
:35:51
Well...
:35:53
...if you've nothing more
to say to me...
:35:55
...I'll get back to the office.
:36:10
Howard, wait.
:36:12
Wait a minute.
:36:17
I did write that letter,
but I was afraid to mention it.
:36:20
I thought none of you would
believe me...
:36:23
...if I admitted that he'd come
at my invitation.
:36:25
I daresay it was terribly silly of me...
:36:28
...but once I'd said I had no communication
with Hammond, I was forced to stick to it.
:36:33
Then you'll have to explain why
you asked him to come see you...
:36:37
...when Robert was away.
:36:39
Well, I'll tell you why, Howard.
:36:41
I was planning a surprise
for Robert's birthday.
:36:44
I'd heard he wanted a new gun, and--
:36:46
Well, I'm so dreadfully stupid
about sporting things.
:36:49
I thought I'd talk to Geoff
and ask him to order one.
:36:55
Perhaps you've forgotten
what's in the letter.
