:41:00
You're afraid of life,
miss fromsett, and people.
:41:02
You don't give
your real self a chance.
:41:06
Marlowe:
Come in, mr. Kingsby.
:41:07
Don't stand out there
all cold and chewed up with curiosity.
:41:11
You may as well
be in on this, too.
:41:13
What's
going on here?
:41:14
Come view my gift
of love, mr. Kingsby.
:41:17
Is this a joke?
:41:19
Chris lavery
wouldn't say so.
:41:20
To coin a phrase we
confidential agents use,
:41:23
he's a dead one.
:41:25
Dead?
:41:25
Did your wife own
a gun, mr. Kingsby?
:41:27
What does my wife
have to do with this?
:41:30
Break it to him
gently.
:41:32
Derrie, i hired
mr. Marlowe
:41:35
to try and find
crystal.
:41:37
You didn't.
:41:38
Yes. I thought-
:41:39
you had no right
to meddle.
:41:40
Crystal is to be
left alone, to do what she wants to do.
:41:43
I've told you that.
:41:44
No, you didn't.
What you said was
:41:45
you were tired
to death of her.
:41:47
Well, l-
:41:48
oh, you're not?
Well, why didn't you say so?
:41:50
I won't
have you prying into my private affairs.
:41:51
The police may be prying
into your private affairs, mr. Kingsby.
:41:55
Your wife was mixed up
with lavery.
:41:57
He's dead. The evidence
points to a woman.
:41:59
Now, does she own
a gun or doesn't she?
:42:00
Surely you don't
believe my wife had anything to do with this.
:42:03
What i believe has
nothing to do with it.
:42:05
Here's a gun that can be
identified and traced.
:42:07
It's got a serial
number on it. It's...
:42:10
but maybe a woman
didn't do it.
:42:12
Maybe it was arranged
to look that way.
:42:14
Maybe you did it,
mr. Kingsby.
:42:16
Don't be an idiot.
I don't go around shooting people.
:42:19
Besides,
i have no motive.
:42:20
The police would say
jealousy.
:42:23
But let's get back
to the woman angle.
:42:26
Did crystal own a gun
or didn't she?
:42:28
Well, i...
:42:32
i don't know.
:42:33
Ok.
:42:34
But i found a dead man,
and i've got the gun that killed him,
:42:37
and i was seen in
that house by the owner.
:42:40
So...
:42:41
what do you propose
to do, mr. Marlowe?
:42:43
Put that right back
where i found it
:42:45
and then call the law and wait
for them to come.
:42:48
What else can i do?
:42:49
Would $1,000
make you change your mind?
:42:52
Ah! So mrs. Kingsby
does have a gun.
:42:54
Yes.
:42:55
Does it look
like that?
:42:56
Yes, but that
$1,000 offer-
:42:58
don't think i'm
too proud to take it.
:42:59
I'm just too smart
to get stuck with it.
