:04:00
Have you ever seen
the doctor?
:04:03
What concern is that of yours?
Aren't you satisfied with your salary?
:04:06
I'm just asking.
:04:08
I'd like to know
what he looks like.
:04:11
Then you might as well order
a coffin for yourself.
:04:15
Do you remember
the American?
:04:17
He too wanted to speak
to the doctor in person.
:04:21
They found him
a few hours later.
:04:24
His throat had been cut.
:04:29
But I really want to know
what the doctor looks like.
:04:33
That I don't know.
:04:35
Don't expect me to explain
clairvoyance to you, Inspector.
:04:40
Magic powers
defy rational thought.
:04:43
I feel the disaster looming.
I see it as if in horrible daydreams.
:04:48
I myself suffer terribly from it,
for I can't stop it...
:04:51
because, like a dark cloud,
some hostile force of black magic...
:04:56
obscures my view
at the decisive moment.
:04:59
Thus leaving a little bit of work
for the police.
:05:05
By the way, did you know
the reporter, this Barter?
:05:08
About a year ago,
shortly after I settled here...
:05:11
he visited me once or twice.
:05:13
He was always looking
for the sensational...
:05:15
and he was a skeptic, like you.
:05:18
That's a professional proclivity,
my dear Cornelius.
:05:22
Unfortunately, a policeman can't afford
to mess around with magical powers...
:05:26
and I rarely have anything to do
with dark clouds.
:05:29
lf, like me, you had grown up
in Ireland...
:05:32
where people still believe
in the elementary powers of nature...
:05:35
you might think differently.
:05:38
But perhaps the blind see more
than those who have sight.
:05:41
Possibly, but in the Barter case
this vision has failed you.
:05:46
Maybe you were also thrown off
by your dark cloud.
:05:50
This was no murder,
my dear Cornelius.
:05:53
It was a simple heart attack.
