:46:00
type up a new card
that would incriminate Lee...

:46:03
and toddle off to sleep soundly
to await the alarms of the morning.

:46:12
I should've recognized the hatred
on your face outside Clinton's door.

:46:17
Was that to have been
the moment of truth?

:46:22
Alas, Clinton and Christine
were having their own moment of truth.

:46:29
Dissolve.
:46:31
The next day,
you did substitute the cards...

:46:33
and arranged for Lee
to see the wrong one...

:46:35
making her think
Clinton had sadistic plans to expose her.

:46:38
The stage was set.
:46:40
Subsequent investigation of the cards
would now point to Lee...

:46:44
as the only person with
a motive strong enough for murder.

:46:51
Would you care to explain how I started
the propellers with Guido in the room?

:46:58
That was my contribution.
:47:02
You wanted Clinton dead, too.
:47:05
You see, I'd helped Alice...
:47:08
out of her little unpleasantness
those many years ago.

:47:12
So when we began playing the game,
looking for a shoplifter...

:47:17
I knew some ugly truths
would be trotted out.

:47:21
Not in the least mine.
:47:25
I wanted it stopped.
:47:29
As you pointed out so astutely yesterday,
I blundered...

:47:33
but it gave you the courage to carry on.
:47:38
What do you think?
:47:40
Am I gonna get away with it?
:47:43
You pretended your back was hurting...
:47:46
to coax Clinton into revealing...
:47:50
what day your secret would be played.
:47:52
As long as you're ready
for Saturday night, which is your biggie.

:47:56
It was only Tuesday. Four days' grace.
:47:59
Clinton's choice of a location was a gift.
