:25:03
So you're C.W. Briggs.
:25:06
I hear you’re a very sharp investigator
with an impressive record.

:25:10
I looked forward to meeting you.
:25:12
- They say I always get my man.
- Me too.

:25:17
[ Exhales ]
Right.

:25:20
I'm glad we could
have this little chat.

:25:24
- Too bad there's a houseful of people.
- Where shall we go tonight?

:25:27
Hmm? Chinatown or Harlem?
:25:30
You prefer jazz or opium?
:25:33
I prefer the rug
in front of my fireplace.

:25:37
Oh, directly to your apartment, eh?
You always begin with the dessert?

:25:41
Well, depends what I'm eating.
:25:45
This will be a very interesting
experiment for me.

:25:49
I usually prefer more attractive,
athletic, muscular men.

:25:54
Maybe I could get in a few
push- ups before you came over.

:25:58
I-- [ Clears Throat]
What about your fiancé?

:26:01
If you don't invite him, I won't.
:26:10
- Any leads?
- It's an inside job.
No question about it.

:26:13
- That's not what the cops say.
- They're wrong. It's inside. I can tell.

:26:17
- Are the Giants playing this afternoon?
- Yeah.

:26:19
They're playing
the Cardinals in St. Louis.

:26:22
Call my bookmaker Frankie. I want to get
a bet down. Hundred bucks on the Giants.

:26:26
- On the Giants to win.
- To win, naturally!

:26:28
What do you think, to place?
:26:30
Mr. Magruder? Oh, tilt.
:26:33
- Anything on the Kensington situation?
- It's an inside job.

:26:36
- I bet my life on it.
- You bet your life on the Giants,
too, and they're in sixth place.

:26:40
Can we talk without
the warden being here?

:26:42
Please, Miss Fitzgerald
is a part of this company now.

:26:45
We must all learn to
work together in harmony.

:26:48
What makes you so positive
it's an inside job?

:26:50
It couldn't be that smooth
unless it was inside.

:26:53
Miss Fitzgerald is suggesting,
given the magnitude of the loss,

:26:56
that we expand our investigation.
:26:58
- Meaning what?
- I appreciate the value
of intuition to a point.
