turtle correct

I'll cut out the comedy you had inside

information have you had the same

information only I used my head while

you used to protect you I don't get it

you remember that same Ramona comes down

a flight of stairs and the bridge where

she throws the ring into the river yeah

see the boat I catch the women in

America every note come over here I

wanna talk to you

look at me excuse us Kelter you antara

mute yourselves

Susan any adverse publicity and I stand

to lose 300,000 dollars invested in.

Mona's picture though I admit you've got

me on a spot but I figured if we could

get together and make a deal

uh-huh I could use a little nest egg

because I don't think Joel ever they

contended with anything but the best

but it's no deal mr. Hart you seem to

forget we're mixed up in a murder what

key it's a reunion that isn't funny.

Hoffman the junior g-man where he

brought a friend

he ain't no friend he's a Reno detective

hey you can be the dummy said I'd be

natural

never mind the repartee miss Cooper

what's going on here why the gathering

of the clan y-yeah we were we were

worried about Susan Oh speak for

yourself

gentlemen I'm here on a vacation could

you give me a room and a bath yes

sydorov don't get personal

well what's the idea of hiding out on it

go away let me alone come on moto what's

the lowdown on this deal can't you let

me alone you heard their power

besides Brunner Harrison's dead how

could she be walking around

what's the strange about that you've

- been doing it for years oh yeah now look

- here not only enough Hoffman is this.

Moment Harrison mr. Hart

why yeah not quite

oh wait pardon me gentlemen

[Applause]

I think Sisyphus things up the signed

confession from Arthur

well that's children knowing I am dying

I must tell the truth I murdered Ellen

Smith and Mona's twin sister Katie you

see this tool stop mumbling in my ear is

it the first time I ever knew Mona had a

twin according to this your sister came

to Hollywood the day of the murders and

demanded money otherwise she threatened

to expose the fact that you were not her

was secretly married yes that's hot buzz

off Maria called he lost it here and

then killed her

so he lost his head and killed her huh

yes yes to protect Julie sent you up

here to hide out while he covered up all

took the rap attorney yes that's it I

wanted to stay but he wouldn't let me

our little Mona was married all the time

no wonder she wouldn't give anyone a

tumble but how does Ellen fit into the

picture well that's a sick

Ellen was in on the blackmail with more

news sister splendid Hoffman you ought

to be promoted to a flat but for such a

deduction yeah what's wrong with her

everything Eleanor a name behind the

night of the dinner party fizzle and she

saw Arthur with a body she got scared

and ran but she was afraid to go home or

to tell the police because she knew

Arthur would be looking for but she did

go home the night of the blackout and

started to call us

Arthur was waiting in the apartment yes

he was my husband

I know I shouldn't say it but it's true

every word of it

well miss Cooper again it seems the

police department is indebted to you

murder is dead and we've got moment the

accessory I should be pulling this on

Hoffman not you but you have things just

- a little bit reversed the accessory is

- dead the murderer is still very much.

Alive

what oh she couldn't be a wise guy now

and cook up some wild yarn why don't you

let the police handle things I'm afraid

they might put you on it keep it safe if

anyone's insane it's you

why should kind of call me crazy I'm.

Terra peace Oh time your name is on with

it cool give her our pen William sit

here mama find your name of it be bad

she's got a pen on a right hand I don't

get well neither did I until I saw those

pictures you remember the scene where

Mona throws the ring into the river she

did it with her right hand now I know

Mona well enough to know she's

left-handed doesn't Mona but her sister

that's right Mona's dad this is Marie oh

the story about her having a sister a

psychopathic Kate she always kept him
