1:27:05
When we were in the taxi together, I felt
as though I were on a great golden cloud.
1:27:10
I told Father I didn't want to go on
with this. I wanted to tell you everything.
1:27:15
But he had an idea about
a bloodstained doll, and I had to put it off.
1:27:20
I wanted to tell you all about it.
1:27:22
Please believe me.
1:27:27
Would you like to mix a cocktail
yourself, Mr. Smith?
1:27:30
I'm afraid there's no ice,
but I'm sure you can manage.
1:27:36
- Good evening, Smith.
- Good evening.
1:27:38
- Do I hear the muted clanking of chains?
- It's only the plumbing.
1:27:41
It's in a dreadful state.
1:27:43
How did you enjoy the garden party,
Mr. Smith?
1:27:45
It must have been awful in that rain.
1:27:48
I think I'll take some sherry
up to Mr. Robinson.
1:27:51
I've quite changed my mind about him.
He seems such a nice young man after all.
1:27:55
Eve, dear, you will look after
Mr. Smith, won't you?
1:28:00
Father, I've been explaining to Mr. Smith
what we're trying to do.
1:28:04
He thinks we ought to stop.
1:28:06
Oh, what a pity.
1:28:08
Just when you and I were about to save
Mr. Smith so much trouble.
1:28:12
Save me trouble?
1:28:14
Sir, you don't look like an irresponsible
imbecile. Why behave like one?
1:28:18
You let your daughter get mixed up in this?
What sort of father do you think you are?
1:28:22
Unique. Quite unique.
1:28:25
But rather broken-hearted at this moment.
You see, I have another idea.
1:28:28
A pity to waste ideas, isn't it?
1:28:32
Have you...? Have you ever
been blackmailed, Mr. Smith?
1:28:36
Well, I have. Only this afternoon.
1:28:38
At least my daughter and I were,
by Nellie Goode.
1:28:41
Yes, most inappropriate name.
I told her so.
1:28:44
She touched us for 24 pounds, and do you
know why I think it was well-spent?
1:28:48
- Though we could ill afford it.
- Come to the point, please.
1:28:51
Well, it struck me that what Nellie could do,
Doris could do.
1:28:55
I mean suppose she went
to Miss Inwood and said:
1:28:58
"Look, Miss Inwood,
I've got a certain dress of yours.
