:05:00
you're worried about
the untimely deaths

:05:01
of these two
Good Comrades.

:05:03
Ergo these men must carry
:05:05
rather large
insurance policies.

:05:06
Yes, but that's not all.
:05:08
Shortly after
forming this club

:05:11
all these seven men
changed their policies

:05:13
making the other members
their beneficiaries.

:05:16
The policy's total
:05:17
are over a hundred
thousand pounds.

:05:19
Oh, it's very
enlightening.

:05:21
You've paid the five
surviving members

:05:22
on the policies of
King and Raeburn?

:05:24
Oh yes, we always
pay promptly

:05:25
but what worries
me, Mr. Holmes, is...

:05:27
Whether these two deaths
:05:29
were accidental or not.
:05:30
Exactly.
:05:31
Of course I may be wrong,
:05:33
I have no proof
:05:34
but it seems to me
to be just possible

:05:35
that one of these men
:05:37
plans to murder the
others one by one.

:05:38
And collect on
all the policies.

:05:40
I see the whole
thing, Holmes.

:05:42
Bravo Watson but
why the orange pips?

:05:43
Oh yes, the orange pips.
:05:45
Pips Watson?
:05:46
Bit of a puzzler,
hey Holmes?

:05:47
Quite.
:05:48
Most intriguing feature.
:05:50
Any tobacco
around this place.

:05:51
After all Mr. Holmes,
:05:53
several lives
may be at stake.

:05:54
The temptation of
sudden wealth could...

:05:56
Could,
:05:57
could possibly
turn one of these

:05:58
seemingly harmless men
:05:59
into a ruthless killer.
:06:01
Exactly.
:06:02
Are those the
Good Comrades?

:06:03
Yes.
:06:04
Let me see them will you?
:06:07
Hello.
:06:09
Who's this fellow
on the end?

:06:10
That's Doctor Merrivale.
:06:12
Doctor Simon Merrivale?
:06:15
I believe his
Christian name is Simon.

:06:18
Yes, definitely
Doctor Simon Merrivale.

:06:20
I'll accept your
case, Mr. Chalmers.

:06:22
Watson pack your things
:06:23
were off to
Scotland tonight.

:06:40
Scotland, home
of my ancestors.

:06:43
A lonely land but
a peaceful one.

:06:46
It's wonderful after
stuffy London, hey Holmes?

:06:49
I say who is this
Doctor Merrivale?

:06:52
Oh well, if you want
to behave like a clam,

:06:55
you have not uttered a
word since we left London.

:06:57
Sorry old fellow,
I was thinking.
