- It's your mail.
- My mail?

:35:03
Isn't it funny how people are different?
:35:05
Now, me, if I found my partner dead,
I'd never think of opening my letters.

:35:10
But I... I just did it to distract myself.
:35:13
I mean, you got to remember
one thing, that's a great shock.

:35:19
Yeah. Oh, that's understandable.
And bills are distracting.

:35:23
Listen, if anything comes up,
I'll call you right away.

:35:26
- Good night.
- Good night.

:35:43
- I'm gonna have a hot dog.
- I guess I will, too.

:35:51
No, no, Mr Tucker. You put that away.
This one's on me.

:35:57
May I have a receipt, please?
:36:01
All right. You're bribing me
with a handsome lunch.

:36:04
- What can I do for you?
- This is about an insurance policy.

:36:07
Excellent. It's about time you came to me.
I can give you a package...

:36:12
This is an insurance policy
that was already written.

:36:16
- Oh, this is official business.
- Yeah.

:36:19
There are two mystery writers,
Ken Franklin and James Ferris.

:36:22
Your company wrote a policy on them?
:36:25
We like to cooperate with the police,
:36:27
but if you want confidential information,
I'm afraid...

:36:30
Look, I don't want to cause you any trouble.
:36:33
Maybe it would be more helpful
if I got a court order?

:36:55
Oh, Ken, it was simply marvellous.
I was terrified.

:36:59
Oh, really? I had the whole thing
figured out by the end of the first act.
