:51:02
Hetty, you remember Dicko, don't you?
:51:04
Of course. Come in.
:51:06
- This is Miss Milligan.
- Hello, Miss Milligan.
:51:08
- Pleased to meet you.
- I bumped into them in the park.
:51:11
How fortunate!
We haven't seen you in ages, Dick.
:51:15
How's Brenda? Do you still hear from her?
:51:20
Well, uh, she's dead... I'm afraid.
:51:23
- Yes... and you killed her!
- Steady on, Hetty. He didn't do it.
:51:29
- He's just been telling me all about it.
- Has he, now?
:51:34
See, he was seen near the place
where Brenda was murdered.
:51:37
So the police think he's the strangler chap.
But he's not, of course.
:51:41
All he wants is a place to hide out.
:51:44
And you suggested he should stay here.
:51:48
Well, yes. It seemed a good idea.
:51:50
Nobody ever knows who's staying here.
:51:52
You're a bloody fool, Johnny,
getting yourself involved like this.
:51:55
- But he didn't do it.
- (Hetty) Of course he did it!
:51:58
- What, old Dicko?
- Yes, Dicko, the chivalrous knight!
:52:03
(Hetty) He always treated her like a chit!
:52:06
I think you're absolutely wrong.
:52:08
Don't you remember that
disgusting divorce petition?
:52:11
The things you did to her!
:52:13
- Divorce petition?
- Oh, didn't he tell you?
:52:17
He was divorced from his wife
on the grounds of extreme cruelty.
:52:21
Thank you very much.
:52:24
Well, is it true?
:52:27
Yes!
:52:28
Both extreme mental and physical cruelty.
:52:32
Depravity was mentioned, I think.
:52:34
It had to read that way,
but there wasn't a word of truth in it!
:52:37
The lawyers made it all up.
:52:39
We didn't want to wait three years
for a divorce based on desertion,
:52:43
so I allowed her to divorce me
on the grounds of cruelty.
:52:45
Extreme cruelty.
:52:48
I wonder if the police have read a copy of it.
:52:53
My God!
:52:56
(Hetty) Yes, l'm sure they'll be fascinated.
:52:58
- He's innocent, I know he is.
- You know it? How do you know it?
