:18:03
ln this case, him.
:18:06
Come on.
:18:13
-But he didn't do it. l know he didn't.
-Do you?
:18:17
The murder was committed with this.
:18:20
-Do you know who it belongs to?
-No. l don't know.
:18:23
We do. lt belongs to Pierce.
That's fact number one.
:18:27
Fact number two:
He doesn't deny killing Beragon.
:18:29
He seems to think it was a good idea.
:18:32
But he didn't. He couldn't.
He's too gentle and kind.
:18:35
Okay. He's kind and gentle.
He's wonderful.
:18:37
But if he's so wonderful, Mrs. Beragon,
why did you divorce him?
:18:46
Because l was wrong.
:18:48
lt's taken me four years to find
that out, but now l know l was wrong.
:18:52
Let's see. Four years ago he was
in the real-estate business, wasn't he?
:18:56
Yes. He and Wally Fay were partners.
For a long time they made good money.
:19:01
They built a lot of houses.
Suddenly, everybody stopped buying.
:19:05
-The boom was over.
-Yes?
:19:07
Then one day they split up.
Wally was in and Bert was out.
:19:11
They weren't partners anymore.
:19:13
That day when Bert came home,
he was out of a job.
:19:16
-Here's the mail for you, Mr. Pierce.
-Thanks, Jack.
:19:19
-Have you got a change-of-address card?
-Why, yes.
:19:23
Thank you.
:19:26
We lived on Corvalis Street
where all the houses looked alike.
:19:30
Ours was number 1 1 43.
:19:32
I was always in the kitchen.
:19:34
I felt as though I'd lived
in a kitchen all my life...
:19:38
...except for the few hours
it took to get married.
:19:41
-That you, Bert?
-Yeah. Who else?
:19:44
-l thought it might be Mrs. Whitley.
-Well, it isn't.
:19:48
I married Bert when I was 1 7.
I never knew any other kind of life.
:19:51
Just cooking and washing
and having children.
:19:54
Two girls, Veda and Kay.
