He kept whispering.
:34:03
Where's the ice pick?
:34:04
That awful, faraway look in his eye.
:34:07
- What?
- I said, where's the bloody ice pick?

:34:13
I don't know. It was...
:34:15
It's been missing
since yesterday afternoon.

:34:21
The back of Clinton's cowl
was stained with blood.

:34:28
Of course.
:34:30
You can't strike a man in the face and
the back of the neck with the same blow.

:34:34
Meaning that Lee only thought
that she killed Clinton.

:34:38
Did the police examine the body?
:34:40
What was the point of it?
Why bother? She confessed.

:34:43
Thomas, we've lost our touch.
:34:44
A good director and a good detective
ought to pay more attention to detail.

:34:49
Allow me, please.
This is the director's cut.

:34:52
The important moment happened
before Lee came into the chapel.

:34:57
Whoever it was lit a cigarette
and dropped it through the grille.

:35:02
And then, as Clinton leaned forward
to stamp it out...

:35:05
stabbed him in the back of his neck
with the ice pick.

:35:09
Then, I assume,
he started to leave the field, but...

:35:12
Just give us the news, please.
:35:14
...the timing was unlucky
because Christine entered.

:35:18
Christine was sitting there last night
chattering about the game.

:35:21
That door creaking open
even before I got to it...

:35:23
and then Clinton getting so physical.
:35:25
Tom, the door was open
when I came into the chapel.

:35:30
Me, too. He wanted it to stay open
so everybody could hear the tape.

:35:33
Exactly.
:35:35
So who closed it? Why did it creak open
when Christine came towards it?

:35:40
Because he was trying to get out.
:35:44
Yes.
:35:46
He was compelled to improvise.
He impersonated Clinton.

:35:51
But the grille that he had smashed meant
that he couldn't let her into the left side.

:35:55
So he forced open the door
at the opposite end.

:35:59
Now, he might have hoped
to make a run for it...
