If you still have doubts about Mr Vole, I
wouldn't mind betting you a box of cigars.
1:35:12
Mrs Helm, you appreciate
you are still under oath?
1:35:16
Yes.
1:35:17
- Do you know a man named Max?
- I don't know what you mean.
1:35:23
It's a simple question. Do you
or do you not know a man called Max?
1:35:27
Max? Certainly not.
1:35:29
It's a fairly common name and yet
you've never known a man named Max?
1:35:33
In Germany, perhaps, but a long time ago.
1:35:35
I shall not ask you to go back that far.
Just a few weeks, to... October 20 last.
1:35:44
- What have you got there?
- A letter.
1:35:47
I suggest that on October 20
1:35:49
- you wrote a letter...
- I don't know what you're talking about.
1:35:52
- .. addressed to a man named Max.
- I did nothing of the sort.
1:35:56
The letter was but one of a series
written to the same man.
1:36:00
Lies! All lies!
1:36:03
You seem to have been, well, let us say,
on intimate terms with this man.
1:36:07
How dare you say a thing like that?
It isn't true!
1:36:09
I'm not concerned with the general trend
of this correspondence, only one letter.
1:36:15
"My beloved Max,
an extraordinary thing has happened. "
1:36:20
"I believe all our difficulties
may be ended. "
1:36:23
I will not stand here
and listen to a pack of lies!
1:36:25
That letter's a forgery.
It isn't even my letter paper!
1:36:29
- It isn't?
- No!
1:36:31
I write my letters on small blue paper
with my initials on it.
1:36:39
Like this?
1:36:43
This is a bill from my tailor for a pair
of extremely becoming Bermuda shorts.
1:36:49
Wilfrid the fox! That's what we call him
and that's what he is.
1:36:54
Now, Mrs Helm, you've been kind enough
to identify your letter paper.
1:36:58
Now, if you like, I can have an expert
identify your handwriting.
