:47:02
- Would you like some help ?
- Yes, damn you !
:47:04
Tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk. So soon.
:47:07
Now, where's my list ?
:47:09
- Oh, God.
- Here it is.
:47:12
"For any man with half an eye,
what stands before him he may spy.
:47:17
"But optics sharp it needs, and clean,
:47:20
to see what is not to be seen."
:47:22
You said everything was in plain view !
:47:24
Well, aren't I the shifty old sly boots then ?
:47:27
You're not giving me anything for a chance,
you bastard !
:47:30
Now, think, think, think.
:47:33
It's in plain view yet not to be seen,
and optical tricks involved.
:47:38
To see what is not to be
seen by the naked eye.
:47:42
It's-it's microscopic !
:47:44
Only a fragment of it is showing !
That's it !
:47:48
The traditional tool of your trade, Inspector.
:47:56
Why don't you ask yourself...
:47:58
how your man "Merridick"
would go about the search.
:48:02
Merridew ! St. John Lord Merridew !
:48:05
Calm. Keep calm.
:48:07
Now, think. What are the problems of crystal ?
:48:09
Hard, brilliant, transparent.
:48:13
Look through it, but you don't see it.
:48:16
That's the trick !
:48:18
Now, the only place to conceal
transparent things...
:48:22
so as to make it invisible and yet
leave it in plain view...
:48:25
is on or in another transparent thing
like-- like--
:48:38
Clear as crystal.
:48:40
But I-- I don't need to destroy this, do I ?
:48:43
She could've left it here any time.
- True.
:48:46
- Go on. What next ?
- Ah.
:48:48
The next object is much more incriminating.
:48:51
Here's a little riddle which I'm sure...
:48:53
one of your nannies must have taught you.
:48:55
Two brothers we are
great burdens we bear
:48:58
on which we are bitterly pressed.
