I didn't tell him anything about us. |
Things are OK now between you and Tony? |
|
|
A Triumphant story-my hero was an eminent
writer from America, ready to snatch his lady
love from the arms of her jealous husband. |
Is this you first visit to London? |
|
|
He doesn't fish, darling. |
We've been drinking ourselves silly
waiting for you. |
|
|
How would you like to come to
a stag party, just down the road? |
What a murderous thug I look. |
|
|
I shall simply tell them you are
trying to blackmail me into . . . |
One thousand pounds cash.
For a murder?!! |
|
|
The coroner will probably congratulate you
for putting up such a good show. |
You phoned the police at three to eleven. |
|
|
You see he attacked me from behind and
it was dark. I hardly saw him. |
I was in bed when the phone rang.
I got up and came in here. |
|
|
Anyone would have realized he was dead. |
You mean. . . you were phoning Margot?. |
|
|
At about twenty to eleven you left
the party to phone your boss?
|
You wrote a letter to Mrs. Wendice
...from New York. |
|
|
It's no good Margot, Tony
will have to know about it now. |
Mr. Halliday, I'd like you to come with me. |
|
|
Mr. Wendice, I would advise you. |
You'll have to tell the police that
you hired Swan to murder her. |
|
|
It's alright Tony, I've been
writing this stuff for years |
You've got to make them believe that. |
|
|
There you are, Inspector. The last
check he wrote was on the twenty-seventh
of September, the day before it happened. |
You mean you're not even going to check
up on this? She's being hanged tomorrow!! |
