:40:02
Shall we settle this now, or do you intend
making me late for the recital?
:40:06
We can't just fire her.
She has given us no cause.
:40:10
Cause? We are up to our necks
in dead bodies.
:40:13
What are you waiting for?
The last act of Hamlet?
:40:16
If you compare our household
with a Shakespearean tragedy,
:40:19
I suggest that Macbeth
would be more appropriate.
:40:23
Oh, darling, my cue ball.
:40:46
That was Mme Ballon.
:40:48
Follow her. When you have discovered
her destination, call me immediately.
:40:55
(Maurice) lnspector Clouseau.
:41:01
- Good evening, M Ballon.
- Good evening, lnspector.
:41:04
There are one or two questions
l'd like to ask.
:41:07
- Of course.
- Some points need clearing up.
:41:09
Certainly. Do you play billiards?
:41:11
Billiards. Yes, l have played
some billiards in my time.
:41:15
I find it makes for a more relaxed and
friendly conversation. How about you?
:41:19
- Yes.
- Take a cue.
:41:21
Ah. A cue. Yes.
:41:25
Hm.
:41:26
That should do.
:41:33
- That's strange.
- You'd be better with an ordinary cue.
:41:36
- That's what we call a bridge.
- Ah, the bridge cue, yes.
:41:40
Yes, l much prefer the good,
old-fashioned, plain cue.
:41:44
Yes, yes.
:41:49
Oh, l'm most terribly sorry.
I'm dreadfully sorry.
:41:54
That's all right.
I've broken a few in my time.
:41:57
Try this one. This is my favourite cue.
