:44:01
Thank you.
:44:03
And let me tell you something.
:44:06
I'm a close friend of old man Sternwood.
:44:08
In my time I've done all I can
to save him grief, but in the long run...
:44:12
...those girls are bound to do
something no one can hush up.
:44:16
This didn't start with Geiger.
:44:18
It started with Rusty Regan disappearing.
:44:21
What started?
:44:24
I think that's what the old man
really wanted you to find out.
:44:31
It was close to eleven
when I got back to my apartment.
:44:35
I'd concealed a murder
and suppressed evidence for 24 hours...
:44:38
... but I was still at large
and nobody seemed unduly worried.
:44:42
As I got to the door
I heard my television was on.
:44:45
I wasn't in, so I guessed
somebody else must be.
:45:01
My, we "are" tough tonight!
:45:04
And how we do keep
our friends waiting, don't we!
:45:08
I smell of policemen.
:45:10
I'm too tired to talk. I'm too tired to eat.
And I'm too tired to think.
:45:15
Don't worry, there's no damage.
:45:17
You see, we didn't feel
that it was necessary.
:45:20
And besides that, the lobby
was becoming so... fearfully boring.
:45:24
It's fascinating on the way out.
Why don't you try it?
:45:29
May I tell you something, soldier?
:45:32
I'm nice to be nice to.
:45:34
But I'm not nice not to be nice to.
:45:38
Listen hard.
You'll hear my teeth chattering.
:45:41
There were police at Geiger's.
Did you keep me out of it?
:45:44
Why should I?
:45:46
Did you?
:45:48
Yeah, I kept you out of it.
:45:50
I don't know why.
:45:52
I guess it was just
complicated enough without you.
:45:57
Thank you, soldier.
:45:59
- Who killed Geiger?
- The chauffeur.
