1:26:01
Just a moment. Please, sir.
1:26:09
Inspector, wait a minute!
Look at this.

1:26:12
The last check he wrote
was on the 26th of March.

1:26:14
That's the day before this all happened.
He's been living off it since.

1:26:18
-That's his bank's--
-Mr. Halliday.

1:26:20
Sorry.
1:26:24
He hasn't drawn any large sums
from his bank. Nothing over £53.

1:26:31
But look, inspector...
1:26:33
...practically every week,
£35, 40, 45, 50.

1:26:38
He could have saved it up.
1:26:39
I could have been planning
all this for years.

1:26:42
-Then where did you get it?.
-Do you really want to know?.

1:26:45
-I warn you. You won't like it, Mark.
-Come on.

1:26:49
All right, you asked for it.
1:26:51
When she called me back
from the party that night...

1:26:53
...I found her kneeling beside Swan's body,
going through his pockets.

1:26:57
She kept saying he had something
of hers, but she couldn't find it.

1:27:01
She was almost hysterical. That's why
I wouldn't let police question her.

1:27:04
In the state she was in, she would have
told every lie under the sun.

1:27:08
The next morning,
she showed me the money...

1:27:10
...just as it is now,
all in £ 1 notes.

1:27:13
And she said, "If anything happens
to me, don't let them find this."

1:27:18
Well, after she was arrested,
I took the money in that case...

1:27:21
...to Charing Cross Station
and left it in the checkroom.

1:27:24
Whenever I needed money,
I took it out...

1:27:26
...and left it in some other checkroom.
1:27:29
I knew if you had found it,
she wouldn't stand a chance.

1:27:32
You see, she was just about to give it
to him when she killed him instead.

1:27:37
You don't expect anyone
to believe this, do you?.

1:27:40
I have really no idea.
What about it, inspector?.

1:27:45
I must say,
I suspected something like that.

1:27:48
You're not going to check up on this?.
She's being hanged tomorrow.

1:27:51
All this has been out
of my hands for months.

1:27:54
-There's been a trial and an appeal--
-Of course it wouldn't mean much to you.

1:27:58
You'd have to admit
you arrested the wrong person.
