:46:00
Observe, memorize,
you are my only witnesses.
:46:02
A cop...
:46:04
- A-l-S-Y A-R-M-S.
- What does that mean?
:46:05
...who, as is customary with cops,
:46:08
fell in love with
:46:09
It means we know
the true identity of Mr. Ratchett.
:46:11
a pretty housemaid
on his beat.
:46:16
And why he had to leave America.
:46:17
Yes, and would have
married her...
:46:21
...if...
:46:23
Do you remember
the Armstrong case?
:46:27
Of course, the kidnapping of that
little American girl, and the killing.
:46:28
Your daughter, Paulette,
never died of scarlet fever, did she?
:46:33
Who does not?
:46:33
No, she killed herself
:46:34
Do you remember the name
of the child?
:46:36
when falsely accused
of complicity
:46:37
Certamente. It was Daisy.
:46:40
in the kidnapping and killing
:46:40
D.
:46:42
D-A
:46:43
of little Daisy Armstrong.
:46:44
l-S-Y.
:46:48
Space, A-R-M-S.
:46:52
Daisy Armstrong.
:46:56
- And Ratchett was her murderer?
- Well, no, the actual murderer
:46:58
They...
:46:59
was tried, sentenced
and electrocuted.
:47:01
They could not have done it
without you, could they?
:47:02
But he was only the number two.
:47:05
The subordinate of a boss whom,
at first, he was too terrified to identify.
:47:05
You.
:47:07
The procurer of this disguise for
the mysterious member of the Mafia,
:47:08
Only on the eve of his electrocution
did he give the name of the boss,
:47:12
who by then had disappeared
with the ransom money.
:47:13
who never existed
:47:14
any more than the owner
of this kimono existed
:47:15
I remember feeling ashamed
that he had an Italian name.
:47:17
as a real character and not as a red
herring to confuse and deceive me.
:47:18
Cassetti.
:47:20
Che mostro. He had
a child's blood on his hands.
:47:21
Although I think
that I was not deceived.
:47:24
He had worse than that.
:47:26
I have, how shall I put it,
:47:27
After the shock
of the body's discovery,
:47:29
an eye for the...
:47:30
Mrs. Armstrong gave premature birth
to a stillborn child,
:47:31
For the figure
of a receding woman.
:47:34
Countess, your cosmopolitan accent
:47:34
and herself died in the process.
:47:37
showed an inherited ability...
:47:37
Her husband, Colonel Armstrong,
:47:39
once a brave officer in
the Scots Guard, shot himself,
:47:40
...from your actress mother.
:47:43
and Mrs. Armstrong's personal maid,
:47:45
But God knows
from what implausible source
:47:45
who came wrongly
under suspicion of complicity,
:47:49
threw herself from her
bedroom window and she died,
:47:49
Miss Greta Ohlsson...
:47:51
so five deaths, five.
:47:53
...learned her English vocabulary,
too ludicrous to be credited.
:47:54
Then I thank heaven that Giuseppe,
who spilt so much blood in his lifetime,
:47:58
should have his own blood
spilt now.
