:51:00
Is that so?
:51:01
I already know
that at the Garibaldi,
:51:04
you insisted on having room 813,
:51:07
the very one Mme Vercel
had just vacated.
:51:11
Mr. Vercel...
:51:13
asked me for some information
:51:15
on his wife's trip to Nice.
:51:17
But we both thought she was alive.
:51:20
At least, I thought so.
But never mind.
:51:23
I gather you also know
that 3 days ago,
:51:26
the Lablache agency
got instructions
:51:29
to check Mme Vercel's past.
:51:31
When you're about to kill someone,
you don't consult a private eye.
:51:35
Why not try to find out
:51:37
who called the agency in Nice?
:51:40
I'd be on top of things...
:51:43
if I'd kept your boss locked up.
:51:46
I had the right to detain him.
:51:58
Don't leave town
:51:59
without my permission.
:52:01
We're in charge.
And if your murdering boss...
:52:04
He's innocent!
:52:05
You're really stubborn!
:52:07
How can I convince you we're dealing
with a dangerous paranoid?
:52:15
Impressive, aren't they?
:52:17
Mme Vercel...
:52:21
Massoulier's car as we found it.
:52:26
Look at the door.
:52:29
Now see these fingerprints,
:52:30
the fingers of Vercel's right hand.
:52:34
It's very simple.
:52:36
As I was leaving,
I saw a car with the lights on.
:52:39
To be helpful, I put them out
and closed the door
:52:43
with my hand like this.
:52:45
It would be a miracle
if I'd left no prints!
:52:48
Did you tell them that?
:52:50
I couldn't... I didn't know.
:52:51
When Santelli showed me
the pictures, I was upset.
:52:55
Because you're a ninny!
:52:56
Besides, why go to the cops?
I told you to see my lawyer.
