1:10:02
As for motives,
there's more than ego and cash.

1:10:06
For example, revenge.
1:10:08
Meaning what, Mr. Charleston?
1:10:10
I'm not the only one who's had
a past experience with Twain.

1:10:14
He was quite a ladies' man in his day.
1:10:17
Are you suggesting
someone here--

1:10:19
Was once in love
with Lionel Twain.

1:10:22
He was engaged to and jilted...
1:10:24
...Miss Jessica Marbles.
1:10:29
Jesus H. Christ!
1:10:32
Jilted 54 years ago at the altar.
1:10:34
Left her there
in that same tweed outfit.

1:10:38
-Is this true, Jessie?
-I was not jilted.

1:10:41
I walked out on him.
1:10:42
He wanted to fool around
before the wedding.

1:10:45
And being the lady you are,
you refused.

1:10:48
Not completely. But it got out of hand.
He was horrid, but l didn't kill him.

1:10:54
That's good enough for me.
What about you?

1:10:57
I'm not a Frenchy!
l'm a Belgy!

1:11:01
And as for other motives,
how about patricide?

1:11:05
The killing of one's own parent?
1:11:08
You mean that Lionel Twain was
the father of someone in this room?

1:11:12
He wasn't my father.
1:11:15
He was my uncle.
1:11:18
He was very good to me.
1:11:20
He would take me to the circus
and give me candy.

1:11:23
We stopped going
when l was about 26.

1:11:29
I'm sorry, Sam.
1:11:31
Twenty-six?
What kind of a circus was it?

1:11:34
Forgive me, but l was talking about
patricide, not uncle-cide.

1:11:38
Twain may have been your uncle...
1:11:41
...but he was the
illegitimate father of...

1:11:44
...Monsieur Sidney Wang!
1:11:48
It not true.
1:11:50
I was adopted.
I have my papers.

1:11:53
That is why l have adopted
all my children.

1:11:57
I was wondering.
