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...

:36:03
but the sprung door
meant that Christine...

:36:05
would have a clear view of anyone
trying to sneak out of the chapel.

:36:08
I happened to notice that
when we discovered the body.

:36:12
Small wonder that Clinton
had an "awful, faraway look in his eye."

:36:19
Then Alice has the homosexual card.
:36:22
Just keep your voice down
and get the hell out.

:36:26
The moment Christine left, he intended
to duck out as soon as he possibly could...

:36:30
but the timing was still unlucky
because somebody else came in:

:36:34
Lee.
:36:36
She wasn't going to go until
she'd had her showdown with Clinton.

:36:41
So he drove her into a state of hysteria...
:36:44
convinced that she'd panic and run.
This is taking an awful chance...

:36:47
because she could have
raised her voice enough to draw attention.

:36:53
But luck was on the murderer's side...
:36:55
because Lee presented him
with the best possible solution.
