But you had to...
:48:05
make sure that you found him before
Lee confronted him with the false card.

:48:09
So you followed me
because I'd been boastful enough to hint...

:48:13
that I'd figured out the clue.
:48:16
After my session, you came in...
:48:18
and proceeded to play Clinton's game
as well as your own.

:48:23
Maybe if I open the door to the chapel
a little wider?

:48:27
What the hell?
:48:35
Then you put on
your little ventriloquist act...

:48:40
for Christine and Lee. I should've realized.
:48:42
We'd all seen you impersonate Clinton.
:48:45
Going over your hand signals
for the bridge tournament?

:48:50
How'd I feel about what?
:48:52
You know too much to live.
:48:54
How convenient for you that Lee...
:48:57
exploded.
:49:03
But how inconvenient for you
that she thought quickly...

:49:08
and arranged everything
to look like an accident.

:49:11
You must have been furious. So you...
:49:15
rearranged everything to look like
a murder that looked like an accident.

:49:19
She had picked up the right stone.
You replaced it with the wrong one.

:49:24
I'll bet that other stone,
stained with blood, is still in the corner.

:49:27
As well as the cigarette
that Lee actually smoked.

:49:32
But, no matter,
you knew that the next day...

:49:35
when you conducted
your brilliant investigation...

:49:37
Lee would naturally assume
that she had made the mistake.

:49:40
And it was brilliant. What better detective
than the man who's committed the crime?

:49:44
Every hesitant conclusion,
every stumbling interpretation.

:49:48
And when you suddenly panicked,
protecting your wife...

:49:52
it was dazzling, dear boy.
