:51:00
Sit down, Mr. Pritchett.
:51:04
Now, I can see you're a man
who knows his own mind, Mr. Pritchett.

:51:14
This way, please.
:51:21
- How do you do, Mrs. McLeod?
- What's this about, Lieutenant?

:51:23
Have a seat.
:51:25
- Where's my husband?
- He'll be here in a few minutes.

:51:27
- He hasn't been hurt?
- No.

:51:30
- I had a terrible feeling that he...
- Nothing like that. He's all right.

:51:34
You're sure?
You're not trying to break it easy?

:51:36
You'll see him in a few minutes,
I give you my word. Please, sit down.

:51:42
Then, what is it? What's wrong?
:51:45
A prisoner here was assaulted
by your husband.

:51:50
- Jim wouldn't do that.
- He did.

:51:52
This could be very serious, Mrs. McLeod.
:51:54
This could cost your husband his job.
He could even wind up in jail.

:52:00
Well, is there anything I can do to help?
:52:02
Yes, by answering some questions,
by telling me the truth.

:52:05
- Willing to go along?
- Yes, of course I am.

:52:09
Did you ever run into a man named
Karl Schneider?

:52:13
No.
:52:15
- My cigar bothering you?
- No.

:52:18
Did you ever hear your husband
mention that name?

:52:22
Jim made it a rule
never to discuss his work with me.

:52:26
It took me 10 years to train my wife.
It's a tough life, being married to a cop.

:52:30
I don't think so. I'm happy.
:52:32
- You love your husband?
- Very much.

:52:34
When'd you leave Highland Falls?
:52:37
The spring of 1941.
I got a job in a defense plant.

:52:40
- Where?
- In Newark.

:52:41
This doctor was practicing in Newark
about that time.

:52:45
- Doctor?
- Schneider.

:52:46
- Oh, he's a doctor?
- Yeah.

:52:48
You never ran into him
around Newark, maybe?

:52:51
- No, I don't know him.
- He knows you.

:52:55
- What makes you think that?
- He said so.

:52:59
I'm afraid he's mistaken.
