It's my hunch that she knew something.
1:04:07
Maybe she saw them
and tried to blackmail him.

1:04:10
- But that's pure guesswork.
- No, ma'am, it's not. Not quite.

1:04:14
I checked the bank.
Yesterday, he took out $15,000.

1:04:18
Today, he put it back in again.
1:04:21
Now, why in the world would he do that?
1:04:25
All right. I'm still not convinced,
but let's say I'll go along.

1:04:32
- What happens now?
- I don't know.

1:04:36
I've got a strong circumstantial case.
It's just not enough.

1:04:39
If I had one piece of hard evidence,
I could nail this fella.

1:04:44
- But you don't.
- That's right. I don't. That's why I'm here.

1:04:49
- Maybe you can give it to me.
- Me?

1:04:51
You knew these fellas very well. I want you
to tell me about 'em. Anything. Just talk.

1:04:57
Whatever comes into your mind.
1:04:59
Kind of like analysis without the couch.
Would you like a little coffee first?

1:05:05
- That'd be fine.
- OK.

1:05:10
I don't know what you're looking for,
but here goes.

1:05:14
They met in a typewriter shop, of all places.
1:05:17
Jim had broken a key,
and Ken needed a ribbon. Does that help?

1:05:21
Yeah. Keep goin'.
1:05:24
Well, I told you a lot about Jim.
1:05:27
He was brilliant, really. He'd wake up in the
night with ideas, always throwing off sparks.

1:05:33
I remember he even did it
on our honeymoon.

1:05:36
Funny thing is, Ken didn't even talk about
the books, unless he was on television.
