:25:00
Oh, yes. The Police are always stupid in
the kind of books you write, aren't they ?

:25:05
They never solve anything. It's always the
amateur sleuth who knows what's going on.

:25:11
But that's detective fiction.
This is fact. This is real.

:25:16
I'm well aware of the
difference, my dear Milo,

:25:18
but I'm also aware of my own
not inconsiderable capabilities.

:25:22
Of course, if you doubt them
or don't trust me--

:25:24
I'm not sure that I do.
:25:27
That's why it's a very
difficult decision to make.

:25:30
Not at all difficult, perfectly simple.
:25:32
You have an expensive woman and no money.
:25:34
Yeah, but why don't you steal the bloody
jewels and simply hand them over to me ?

:25:38
I should have thought that was obvious.
The burglary has to look real.

:25:42
This house has actually to be broken into.
:25:44
Then why don't you break into it ?
:25:46
It's a question of agility
for one thing, dear boy.

:25:49
Milo, baby, hey, do me a favor.
:25:52
Let me handle this. Know what I mean ?
:25:54
Crime is my bag. I got this caper
all worked out to the last detail.

:26:01
170,000 pounds.
:26:07
Cash, tax-free.
:26:12
It would take an awful lot of
Tindolini's tonsorial teasing
to raise that kind of money.

:26:18
All right. I'll do it.
:26:20
- Where do you want me to break in ?
- No, no, no, no. Not so fast.

:26:23
You've got to get disguised first.
:26:26
- What for ?
- What if somebody saw you climbing in ?

:26:31
Here ? In the middle of nowhere ?
:26:33
I could hardly find this
place with a bloody map !

:26:35
You never know !
:26:38
A dallying couple, a passing sheep rapist.
:26:41
Besides, don't forget the clues
we've got to leave for the Police
and insurance company.

:26:45
We don't want your footsteps
in the flower beds...

:26:49
Or your coat button snagged
on the window sill.

:26:51
No, no, no ! You must be disguised !
:26:54
All right. How ?
:26:57
Please to follow me, number one son.
