:17:18
I hope you're not shocked that I haven't
:17:19
dressed formally for the setting.
:17:21
It's really well-suited to a farce or tragedy,
:17:26
Don't you think?
:17:28
So you're Lara.
:17:30
Make yourself at home.
:17:32
I must advise you I only came here out of courtesy
:17:34
so please don't waste my time.
:17:37
That depends on you, dear.
:17:40
Sharif, my lawyer.
:17:42
Mrs Baumer.
:17:45
Kurt's widow.
:17:49
So why did you want to talk to me?
:17:51
I'm not one to beat around the bush.
:17:53
You're here to cash in Kurt's life insurance:
:17:56
a million dollars.
:17:58
You know how to grasp the situation 'on the fly'.
:18:02
What are you insinuating?!
:18:04
That it was you who made that plane crash.
:18:07
Stop right there! I've no desire to listen to you!
:18:10
But you will listen to me, and how!
:18:13
Kurt wanted to divorce you and marry me.
:18:15
He wanted to change the policy's beneficiary.
:18:18
You found out and had him killed!
:18:21
That money belongs to me!
:18:22
You're crazy! No court in the world
:18:24
would recognise any right of yours to that money.
:18:27
My lawyer has a completely different opinion.
:18:30
Isn't that true, Sharif?
:18:32
Isn't that right?
:18:34
He's not much of a lawyer
:18:36
but he's got a special talent
:18:38
for making people disappear without trace.
:18:41
You killed Kurt!
:18:42
And you've got to pay me for what I lost!
:18:46
I... I didn't kill anyone.
:18:47
You can tell that to the inquest commission
:18:49
who are investigating the plane crash.
:18:51
If we denounced you the insurance company
:18:53
would block payment of the million dollars.
:18:55
Whereas if you were to sign a document
:18:58
giving me half the money you could count
