1:44:02
But God knows
from what implausible source

1:44:07
Miss Greta Ohlsson...
1:44:10
...learned her English vocabulary,
too ludicrous to be credited.

1:44:17
I was born backwards.
1:44:19
That is why I work in Africa
as missionary,

1:44:23
teaching little brown babies
more backwards than myself.

1:44:27
You coined words like "bed gown",
1:44:29
and yet you understand
words like "emolument".

1:44:34
I truly believe you did look after
little brown babies at your mission

1:44:37
in Shimoga, which is in India,
by the way, you know.

1:44:39
It's not Africa.
1:44:42
But I believe you
were covering up

1:44:43
for once, years earlier,
when you were in America,

1:44:46
having looked after a little
white baby called Daisy...

1:44:50
...whose death, though you
could do nothing to prevent it,

1:44:52
so preyed on your mind that you
sought refuge in a vision of Jesus.

1:44:56
And your future as a missionary,
1:44:58
looking after little brown babies,
was sealed.

1:45:02
You. You were lucky
1:45:05
only to be bound and gagged,
1:45:07
not crushed like the manservant.
1:45:09
- Mr. Beddoes.
- Sir.

1:45:11
You served with the
British army in Scotland.

1:45:14
Colonel Armstrong
was in the Royal Scots.

1:45:16
Would you kindly give Dr. Constantine
your deepest butler's bow?

1:45:23
Yes, there is an old contusion.
1:45:25
The result of a slight fracas
in the mess, sir,

1:45:28
with regard to the quality of a pudding
known as spotted dick.

1:45:32
Thank you, but I think
you've been spotted too.

1:45:36
Mr. Foscarelli is very knowledgeable
about automobiles.

1:45:40
I suspected that perhaps he had
once been Armstrong's chauffeur.

1:45:45
I asked if he had ever
been in private service.

1:45:47
No.
1:45:49
I think Mr. Foscarelli's
appalling English is more genuine

1:45:52
than Miss Ohlsson's,
but I think he meant yes.

1:45:54
- Think, monsieur?
- Think, think. Yes, think!

1:45:57
What else can be done on a train
isolated by a snowdrift?
