:21:02
I came into money during the war
when I lost my parents.
:21:08
Mrs White, you've been paying
:21:10
since your husband died
under mysterious circumstances.
:21:15
- Why is that funny?
- That's why he's on his back. In a coffin.
:21:20
- I didn't kill him.
- So why pay the blackmailer?
:21:23
I don't want a scandal. We'd had
a very humiliating confrontation.
:21:29
He was deranged. He was lunatic.
:21:31
He didn't like me.
He threatened to kill me in public.
:21:35
- Why kill you in public?
- He threatened, in public, to kill her.
:21:40
- Was that his final word?
- Being killed is pretty final.
:21:44
- Yet he was the one who died, not you.
- What did he do for a living?
:21:50
A scientist. Nuclear physics.
:21:53
What was he like?
:21:55
A stupidly optimistic man.
It came as a shock to him when he died.
:21:59
He was found at home,
his head had been cut off and his...
:22:04
You know...
:22:06
- I'd been at the movies.
- Miss him?
:22:09
It's life after death.
Now he's dead, I have a life.
:22:13
- Your first husband also disappeared.
- That was his job. An illusionist.
:22:19
- But he never reappeared.
- He wasn't a very good illusionist.
:22:25
I have something to say.
:22:27
I'm not going to wait
for Wadsworth to unmask me.
:22:31
I work for the State Department.
And I'm a homosexual.
:22:37
I feel no personal shame
or guilt about this.
:22:41
But I must keep it a secret
or I'll lose my job on security grounds.
:22:47
Thank you.
:22:52
Well...
:22:55
- That just leaves Mr Boddy.
- What's your little secret?
:22:59
His secret? Hadn't you guessed?
He's your blackmailer.
