Information?
:51:04
Information...
:51:07
About what?
:51:08
You have a short memory. Rusty Regan.
:51:12
Oh, that! I heard you got all that from...
:51:15
...Gregory at Scotland Yard.
:51:17
- You heard?
- Yes, well, we are...
:51:20
...we are good friends, he and I.
:51:23
Look, soldier, you've been good to me.
I pay people who are good to me.
:51:28
I didn't come here to make a touch.
:51:30
I get paid for what I do. Not very much
by your standards, but I make out.
:51:35
You didn't knock Regan off yourself,
did you?
:51:38
No.
:51:40
- Did you think I had?
- I wouldn't put it past you.
:51:44
I thought you weren't looking
for Rusty Regan.
:51:47
I know someone who would
like to know where he is.
:51:51
General Sternwood.
:51:53
Geiger was trying to blackmail him.
:51:55
The General didn't say so, but I figure he
was scared Rusty Regan was behind it.
:52:00
Geiger worked that on everybody. He'd
get notes that weren't legal and try it on.
:52:04
If it didn't work, he'd just drop it.
:52:08
Well, he certainly dropped it this time.
Dropped it and fell on it.
:52:12
Look, Marlowe,
you were looking for Geiger.
:52:15
Geiger's dead, isn't he? You're finished.
:52:18
That's right. Finished and paid off.
Think I'll take a walk around the club.
:52:22
The door over there
leads out behind the tables.
:52:28
Thanks, but I'll go in
the same way the suckers enter.
:52:32
- We are still friends, aren't we, soldier?
- Sure we are.
:52:36
Then maybe one day
I'll be able to do you a "real" favour.
:52:43
You wouldn't have somebody tailing me
around in a grey Humber, would you?
:52:48
No.
:52:50
Why the hell should I?
:52:53
I can't imagine.
:52:59
Place your bets, please.
