: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.
:07:00
Twenty years ago
Doctor Merrivale
:07:01
was a famous surgeon
on Harley Street.
:07:03
Can't be so very famous,
I never heard of him.
:07:05
Oh but he was.
:07:07
His main claim to
distinction, of course,
:07:09
was the unnecessarily
brutal murder
:07:10
of a young bride.
:07:11
Really?
:07:13
However, he testified
:07:14
so brilliantly
on the witness box
:07:15
that he was acquitted
:07:17
after which he dropped
completely out of sight.
:07:19
And you think that
:07:21
he was most probably
responsible
:07:23
for the death of these
two Good Comrades?
:07:24
Well I don't
say that he was
:07:26
but I do say that
he could have been.
:07:27
Murder is an
insidious thing, Watson.
:07:29
Once a man has dipped
his fingers in blood
:07:32
sooner or later he'll feel
the urge to kill again.
:07:35
Oh gracious me
very unpleasant.
:07:55
Funeral home.
:07:57
You suppose were too late?
:07:58
Oh I think your
