Leonard and I went through
a form of marriage,

:35:06
but I had a husband living somewhere
in East Germany, in the Russian zone.

:35:10
- Did you tell Leonard?
- I did not. It would have been stupid.

:35:14
He would not have married me and
I'd have been left to starve in the rubble.

:35:18
But he did marry you
and brought you safely here.

:35:20
Don't you think you should be grateful?
:35:23
One can get very tired of gratitude.
:35:25
Your husband loves you
very much, does he not?

:35:28
Leonard?
He worships the ground I walk on.

:35:31
And you?
:35:33
You want to know too much.
:35:36
Auf Wiedersehen, gentlemen.
:35:39
Thank you for coming in, Mrs Vole.
Your visit has been most reassuring.

:35:44
Do not worry, Sir Wilfrid. I will give him
an alibi and I shall be very convincing.

:35:49
There will be tears in my eyes when I say
"Leonard came home at 9.26 precisely. "

:35:54
You're a very remarkable woman,
Mrs Vole.

:35:59
And you're satisfied, I hope?
:36:02
- I'm damned if I'm satisfied!
- Care for a whiff of those smelling salts?

:36:08
That woman's up to something. But what?
:36:10
The prosecution will break her down
in no time when she's in the witness box.

:36:14
This case is going to be rather
like the charge of the Light Brigade

:36:18
or one of those Japanese suicide pilots.
Quite one-sided.

:36:22
With the odds all on the other side.
:36:24
I haven't got much to go on, have I?
:36:27
The fact is, I've got nothing.
:36:30
Let me ask you something.
:36:32
Do you believe Leonard Vole is innocent?
:36:39
Do you?
:36:42
Do you?
:36:44
I'm not sure.
:36:46
Oh, I'm sorry, Wilfrid.
Of course, I'll do my best.

:36:50
It's all right, Brogan-Moore.
:36:53
I'll take it from here.
:36:56
I have called Dr Harrison and given him
a report on your shocking behaviour.
