:20:01
Well, look, darlings.
:20:03
I'm frightfully sorry,
but I've got an awful shock for you.

:20:06
Teddy's killed a man, darlings!
:20:09
Nonsense!
:20:10
There's a body in the windowseat!
:20:12
Yes, dear. We know.
:20:18
-You know?
-Of course.

:20:20
Yes, but it has nothing to do with Teddy.
:20:23
Now, Mortimer. You just forget about it.
:20:26
Forget you ever saw the gentleman.
:20:29
Forget?
:20:30
We never dreamed you'd peek.
:20:33
What the....
:20:35
Who is he?
:20:36
He's a Mr. Hoskins. Adam Hoskins.
:20:40
That's really all I know about him,
except that he's a Methodist.

:20:44
He's a Methodist? lsn't that nice.
:20:46
That's all you know?
What's he doing here?

:20:48
-What happened to him?
-He died.

:20:51
Aunt Martha, men just don't get
into windowseats and die.

:20:54
No, dear. He died first.
:20:57
Wait! Stop all this.
:21:00
Now look, how did he die?
:21:02
Mortimer, don't be so inquisitive.
:21:05
The gentleman died because he drank
some wine with poison in it.

:21:12
How did the poison get in the wine?
:21:14
We put it in wine
because it's less noticeable.

:21:16
When it's in tea, it has a distinct odor.
:21:20
You mean you....
:21:22
You put it in the wine?
:21:24
Yes. And I put Mr. Hoskins
in the windowseat...

:21:27
...because Reverend Harper was coming.
:21:32
Look at me, darling.
:21:36
You knew what you'd done and didn't want
Reverend Harper to see the body?

:21:40
Well, not at tea.
That wouldn't have been very nice.

:21:45
It's first-degree.
:21:47
Now, Mortimer, you know all about it
and just forget about it.

:21:51
I do think that Martha and I have the right
to our own little secrets.

:21:58
Abby, while I was out I dropped in
on Mrs. Schultz. She's much better.
