Invitation to dinner and murder
finally clear to Wang...
:33:05
...with appearance
of Monsieur Perrier.
:33:08
It's obvious that the world's
greatest detectives were invited.
:33:12
Five of us, darling.
Three are here.
:33:14
Two have not yet arrived.
:33:16
-Miss Jessie Marbles of England.
-And--
:33:19
Sam Diamond of San Francisco.
:33:22
I know who you all are.
:33:24
The lady in the dress is my secretary
and mistress, Tess Skeffington.
:33:29
-Sam, don't.
-I'm sorry, sweetheart.
:33:32
She doesn't like it
when l'm brutally honest.
:33:35
Then again, we're all
in a brutal business.
:33:38
Never considered murder
to be business, Mr. Diamond.
:33:42
Is that right, Mr. Wang?
:33:45
Maybe not for you, since you put your
money in vegetables in the late '30s.
:33:50
Our friends don't know
that you own 50 percent...
:33:53
...of the bean sprouts and the bamboo
shoots grown in China.
:33:57
You can imagine how much
chicken chow mein...
:34:00
...goes into his pot each year.
:34:03
-Do l have the figures right?
-Right.
:34:05
What does this have to do
with anything?
:34:08
Or you, Mr. Perrier.
:34:10
You work both sides
of the big drink.
:34:13
Pretty good pickings,
solving crimes for barons...
:34:17
...and putting your fees
into Swiss banks.
:34:20
Three trips a year buys
a lot of hot chocolate.
:34:23
See here, Diamond--
:34:24
You see here, Mr. Charleston of
New York, Palm Beach and Beverly Hills.
:34:30
Crime's a hobby to you, isn't it?
:34:32
It's a game to wile away the time
while you wait for room service...
:34:37
...while your wife's dough buys
martinis and your $300 suits.
:34:41
That's nice, when all
you gotta do...
:34:44
...is give your wife a grab now
and then and take the dog for a leak.
:34:49
Sorry to shock you, but l never
went to finishing school.
:34:52
My school is the streets...
:34:54
...and the barrel of a revolver
is my teacher.
:34:57
I get $50 a day in expenses
when l can get them, gentlemen.
