:59:01
That's the best way to handle it, right?
:59:03
Yes, yes, of course.
:59:07
I don't wanna go around pointing
my finger at anyone

:59:10
until I have an airtight case.
:59:12
- Right?
- Right.

:59:16
Er, Lieutenant, your man said that you'd...
:59:21
you'd covered every inch of the place,
did that include the inside?

:59:25
She agreed but I didn't wanna bother her.
:59:27
Don't you think you should?
I mean, for her protection.

:59:31
When you don't find the paintings
you can cross her name off.

:59:34
Neither of us thinks she's guilty
so why bother?

:59:38
For her sake, so she can be certain.
Search the house, Lieutenant.

:59:42
No, really, I think it's a waste of time.
:59:45
But if anything new comes up,
I'll let you know.

:59:56
Edna? She's utterly harmless.
:59:59
Exactly. That's why we've got to help her.
1:00:02
But could she be arrested?
The lieutenant doesn't think she's guilty.

1:00:06
But who knows what he'll think tomorrow?
1:00:09
In case you haven't noticed,
he is a very haphazard individual.

1:00:13
- Hm. If he doesn't break the case soon?
- Exactly.

1:00:17
He starts looking for a scapegoat
because the pressure's building

1:00:21
and Edna's the most obvious candidate.
1:00:25
Well, what should we do?
1:00:28
Protect her. Rudy would've wanted us
to look out for her interests.

1:00:34
She trusts you, Frank.
1:00:36
Get her here. Talk to her like a Dutch uncle.
Fill her in on the situation.

1:00:40
You're sure we should
allow her house to be searched?

1:00:44
Absolutely. You ought
to recommend we insist on it.

1:00:47
That way, we get it on the record that
nothing's been found to incriminate her.

1:00:53
All right. Miss Henderson,
get me Mrs Mathews.

1:00:57
Oh, she's shopping at
the Fashion Center in Beverly Hills.
