:54:04
Godmother.
:54:05
Now you have accidentally
said something valuable.

:54:10
Come.
:54:14
Mr. Beddoes, this is not
an inquisition, only an inquiry.

:54:19
When you took Mr. Ratchett
his valerian drops

:54:22
about 9:40 yesterday evening,
was he already in bed?

:54:26
That is so, sir. Mr. Ratchett
always retired early on trains.

:54:29
What were your duties before
leaving him for the night?

:54:31
To place the valerian drops
within reach, sir.

:54:34
- Beddoes.
- Sir?

:54:35
Did you put this on my table
during dinner?

:54:38
- No, sir.
- Then who the hell did?

:54:40
I have no idea, sir.
:54:43
May I ask what it is?
:54:44
What it is, is none
of your damn business.

:54:46
I wanna know how it got here.
:54:49
Ce n'est rien.
:54:51
C'etait un cauchemar.
:54:52
- Will there be anything more, sir?
- There will.

:54:54
Tell Mr. McQueen
I wanna see him, now.

:54:55
Bien, Mr. Ratchett.
:54:57
May you now have
pleasant dreams.

:54:57
Very well, sir.
:55:00
At what time would you like
to be called in the morning, sir?

:55:02
Not before 10.
:55:04
Very good, sir.
:55:06
- Was that usual?
- Oh, quite, sir, yes.

:55:08
His breakfast was his amber moon.
:55:10
He never rose
until it had had its full effect.

:55:13
So you instructed Mr. McQueen
:55:16
and then returned
to your own compartment,

:55:18
the number one and two,
:55:20
whose upper berth was occupied
by Signor Foscarelli.

:55:24
Oh, yes, sir, the Italian person.
:55:26
- Does he speak English?
- A kind of English, sir.

:55:26
At 1:15 came Mrs. Hubbard's
announcement

:55:29
I think he learned it
in a place called Chicago.

:55:29
that there was
a man in her room,

:55:31
who had, for reasons which I dare
not even guess, shed a button.

:55:32
Did you talk together much?
:55:34
Oh, no, sir. I prefer to read.
:55:35
The next morning,
the murder was discovered.

:55:37
Dr. Constantine sets
the time of the murder

:55:41
Hey, what are you reading,
Mr. Beddoes?

:55:41
anywhere between
midnight and 2 a.m.

:55:44
Love's Captive,
by Mrs. Arabella Richardson.

:55:45
Now, I came to various conclusions.
:55:48
Is it about sex?
:55:48
The clumsy cliché
of the smashed watch

:55:50
No, it's about 10:30, Mr. Foscarelli.
:55:52
registering 1:15
:55:54
had been done deliberately
to excite my disbelief.

:55:57
I like that.
"It's about 10:30."

:55:59
And since Mr. McQueen
had overemphatically said
