:27:00
- Oh, uh, just middling.
- Uh-huh.
:27:03
- Excuse me, Herb.
- Oh.
:27:05
Thank you.
I'm sorry your mother's not better.
:27:08
- Thank you, dear. There, now.
- Thank you.
:27:12
(Emmy) Lead a life of luxury.
:27:15
Well, l must go and see
what Charlie ' s doing.
:27:22
Wife's brother from the East.
New York man.
:27:26
Good for the children.
You know what I mean?
:27:29
In business?
Well, he takes himself very seriously.
:27:34
Well, how's everything?
:27:36
Say, ha-have you read this one? Huh?
:27:39
That little Frenchman beats them all.
:27:41
You can talk all you like
about Sherlock Holmes.
:27:44
That little Frenchman beats 'em all.
:27:46
I read it. Air bubbles don't
necessarily kill a person.
:27:49
Those writers from the other side
get too fancy.
:27:52
- The best way to commit a murder-
- I know, I know.
:27:55
Hit 'em on the head
with a blunt instrument.
:27:57
Well, it's true, isn't it? Listen.
:28:00
If I wanted to murder you tomorrow,
:28:02
do you think
I'd waste my time on fancy hypodermics?
:28:05
- Or on Inee?
- What's that?
:28:07
- Inee. Indian arrow poison.
- Oh.
:28:10
Listen,
I'd find out if you were alone, walk in,
:28:14
hit you on the head with a piece
of lead pipe or a loaded cane -
:28:17
What'd be the fun of that?
:28:19
Where's your planning?
Where's your clues?
:28:22
I don't want any clues.
I want to murder you.
:28:24
What do I want with clues?
:28:27
Well, if you haven't got any clues,
where's your book?
:28:30
I'm not talkin' 'bout writing books.
I'm talking about killing you!
:28:34
If I was going to kill you, I wouldn't do
a dumb thing like hitting you on the head.
:28:38
First of all,
I don't like the fingerprint angle.
:28:41
Of course, I could always wear gloves,
press your hands against the pipe
:28:45
after you were dead
and make you look like a suicide.
:28:48
But you wouldn't beat yourself to death.
I'd do it so it didn't look like murder.
