Talk is that's why he was put on the spot.
:36:02
Don't be a hog, Dundy.
:36:03
Your idea I killed Thursby
because he killed Miles...

:36:06
...falls to pieces if I'm blamed
for killing Miles.

:36:08
You haven't heard me say
you killed anybody.

:36:10
You keep bringing that up.
:36:12
Haven't you anything better to do
than to pop in here...

:36:14
...early every morning asking
fool questions?

:36:17
- And gettin' a lot of lyin' answers.
- Take it easy.

:36:20
If you say there's nothin' between you
and Archer's wife, you're a liar.

:36:23
Is that the hot tip that brought you up here
at this ungodly hour?

:36:27
That's one of 'em.
:36:28
And the other?
:36:30
Let us in!
:36:33
All right, Spade, we'll go.
:36:36
Maybe you're right in buckin' us.
Think it over.

:36:41
Help!
:36:42
- I guess we're goin' in.
- I guess you are.

:36:48
What's goin' on in here?
:36:49
Look, Officer! Look what she did!
:36:52
- Did you do that?
- I had to.

:36:54
I was alone with him.
He tried to attack me.

:36:56
I had to keep him off. I couldn't shoot him!
:36:58
You dirty, filthy liar! It isn't true!
:37:01
I came up here in good faith,
then both of them attacked me.

:37:04
Then when he went out to talk to you
he left her here with a pistol.

:37:07
She said as soon as you leave
they'll kill me...

:37:10
...so I called for help. I didn't want you
to leave me to be murdered.

:37:13
And then she struck me with the pistol!
:37:15
Why don't you make him tell the truth?
:37:18
Wait a minute!
:37:20
That's no way to act!
:37:21
I don't guess we'll be wrong
runnin' the lot of 'em in.

:37:24
Don't be in a hurry.
Everything can be explained.

:37:26
I'll bet.
:37:27
Miss O'Shaughnessy, Lieutenant Dundy
and Detective Sergeant Polhaus.

:37:31
Miss O'Shaughnessy is an operative
in my employ since yesterday.

:37:35
That's a lie, too!
:37:36
That is Mr. Joel Cairo.
:37:38
Cairo was an acquaintance of Thursby's.
He came to my office late this afternoon...

:37:42
...and hired me to find something Thursby
had on him when he was bumped off.

:37:46
It looked funny to me the way he put it,
so I wouldn't touch it.

:37:49
Then he pulled a gun on me.
That's neither here nor there...

:37:52
...unless we start preferring charges
against each other.

:37:56
Miss O'Shaughnessy and I discussed
the matter and decided to find out...

:37:59
...exactly how much he knew
about Miles' and Thursby's killings...
