You know, it's quite a coincidence
1:04:02
you and I both meeting
in the same place like this.

1:04:05
Yes, it is, isn't it? Yeah.
1:04:10
- What are you reading?
- Oh, this.

1:04:12
This is a... transcript of the inquest.
1:04:17
Congratulations.
I understand you're engaged.

1:04:20
- Not necessarily.
- Oh, really? What happened?

1:04:24
Let's get back to this.
I want to ask you something.

1:04:28
Lieutenant, why are you hounding Beth?
1:04:30
Hounding? Who, me?
1:04:32
Oh, no. I'm not hounding anybody.
1:04:34
Oh, no. No, what I'm trying to do
is get to the bottom of this thing.

1:04:40
You know, Lieutenant, I like you. I really do.
1:04:44
- But you are devious.
- Devious?

1:04:46
Your job was finished
with the coroner's verdict

1:04:49
but you're still here, asking questions.
1:04:52
You even managed to bump into me here.
1:04:55
Now, Lieutenant, you don't really think
1:04:59
that Beth killed her brother
in cold blood, now, do you?

1:05:02
Well, as a matter of fact... I do.
1:05:16
Mr Hamilton, you asked me what I thought.
1:05:19
Now I'm gonna tell you.
1:05:21
I think she set it up.
I think it was deliberate.

1:05:25
And I think you can help me prove it.
1:05:27
You're sure that's coffee you're drinking?
1:05:30
Cos you're not making any sense.
I was there.

1:05:33
Beth didn't kill anybody. It was an accident.
1:05:36
Can I tell you about my wife?
1:05:38
You know, my wife,
she's got a proverb for every situation.

1:05:42
A rolling stone gathers no moss,
you gotta look before you leap...

1:05:46
I'm sure your wife is very nice
but what has that got to do with the case?

1:05:50
To be honest? She solved it for me.
1:05:54
We're having an argument and she says,
"You're putting the cart before the horse,"

1:05:59
and I said, "Right."
