When Captain Pyke is shot, Holmes keys in on his mysterious Chinese widow as well as the shady Merrydew. Other members keep dying--Malcom Dearing first, then Mr. Baker.

No, the police questioned?

No.

Luckily not

I mentioned to the police.

Have you read the papers?

It is very strong, very strong.

Poor old gentleman.

It's a cruel world where

live, Miss Forrester.

We'll have to make another meeting.

So I came to tell him.

Segura.

Many leaves have fallen ...

this interest to

other people's business.

At the same time, and

in place ...

morning to night.

Please do not ask me to go

back to that place.

Well, unfortunately

In this case ...

I am a servant, who

carries instructions.

You have nothing to worry about ...

for anything in the world.

He is my ...

Mr. Stamford, Mr. Merrydew.

Remember.

It seems that I see everywhere.

Who is this man?

He's my lawyer.

I remember seeing him the other night.

What are you doing here?

Oh, please do not start again.

But I have no right to know?

Oh, John.

I'm so miserable.

It is something that has

to do with my father.

Before he died he told me.

I remember his words.

When you miss, you will lack nothing.

You will be rich ...

remember this name ...

I repeated it twice ...

Merrydew.

Surely will contact you.

Follow their instructions.

He will come with the

truth by heredity.

What you find in

the meeting three days ago?

To ensure the

word of my father.

I'm beginning to understand.

What do I see?

John!

Is a man dressed in black ...

like a thief.

What was high?

Quite high.

Could watch Ms. Forrester ...

without attracting attention?

I do not understand.

Aileen Are you in danger?

In great danger.

It was wise to come to me.

If anything happens, keep

contact me.

Cautiously.

Remember ...

please contact me.

We are on the way, Watson.

I'm glad to see him in a good mood.

We did very well.

I'm sure.

I admit that I need

a bit of explanation.

I also feel a little curious.

I considered the book of Wiki Oldenecs ...

as I supposed, the great

Numbers represent ...

pages, numbers more guys ...

the columns, and the other message.

You will find the code in the table.

A meeting in scarlet ring ...

Tuesday in Limehouse.

M.

Merrydew??

Very possible.

Tomorrow will be shown in section

staff in the Daily Telegraph ...

with a second message and

a request for information.

Does your message?

My message.

And what will be the next step?

The need for fresh air,

I take to the field tomorrow ...

meanwhile I

will relax with music.

I hope not to bore you.

No, if you do it gently.

The Crown, Thompson

Footwear cleaning.

Things go from bad to worse.

All you have to do is more ...

before having less.

The same thing I say.

The Captain Pyke

was a bad deal ...

a very bad business.

The same thing I say.

The Farm also bad.

He stood with barrels.

The same thing I say.

I've broken the back

to have no garden.

And look at it now.

Think I said something, and mus.

Good morning, sir, good day.

Good day, good day.

How far is it to

Farm from here?

Some say they are four miles ...

and others say five miles.

But I say that is more than 4 ...

and less than 5.

So I have no

other than walking?

Bless you, yes sir,

there is an old wagon.

You can go with the old Cesar,

and Willie can carry.

Would you mind

take something with you?

No problem, a whiskey.

A whiskey splashed.

- Put the bottle on the table, and also

a soda. - Very well, sir, very well.

Blessed be the Lord,

We're busy again.

A God sent you, sir.

Long time ago

is not a customer.

Here you go, sir.

Before you can say Robinson.

Have a drink.

Thank you, sir.

Just a little.

Say far.

There.

I say it is very good.

I feel like again, sir.

Well, it's a new man who takes.

As there, sir.

There.

Health, sir.

Health.

Were you born here?

I never saw elsewhere.

All my family is here.

It is a good place to work.

So tease me back ...

working in the gardens.

Then remind the Captain Pyke.

Andy Swallow, an old

and foolish knight.

See that scar.

It belongs to Captain Pyke.

A brand possibly caused ...

by a stone.

That's what it was, sir.

Was the young master testing

stones at me, sir.

Someone young and wild.

Wild??

Age of terror.

What I expected, sir.

Prepared the carriage and

is ready to go.

Tell me more on the trip.

And bring the bottle.

Very good, sir.

It is good for the back.

Cesar Quiet, quiet.

This a little tired, but

always ready, sir.

What was I saying?

Can not find

British Gentiles ...

tampocos or Chinese.

Not in this area.

I imagine it's very difficult.

When Captain

was alive it was ...

Here Often?

So last Tuesday was like ...

two years since we saw.

Can we get a drink, sir?

I will kill you.

I'm ready, sir.

It's magical.

There's the Farm, sir.

It seems that now are the servants.

They are not what we would call

true servants.

- Daffy Dolly is ... - Daffy?

- It is the caring that place.

It's there for thirty years.

Stop a moment.

Oh, Cesar.

Public Warning.

The Farm.

I will walk the rest of the way ...

Wait here.

I'm not leaving here.

Forgive.

Is the lady?

No, sir.

Where is?

In the city.

I have understood that this

house is for sale ...

wanted to buy.

I will look at it, I'll watch it.

She is the lady.

It looks great.

It has very pretty eyes ...

are like those of a cat ...

that good figure ...

and is very delicate.

This is the bedroom.

Does not it feel good?

It's my heart, bring me water, fast.

Yeah, wait a minute.

Drink it.

I'm dying ...

call a physician.

Oh no, we have no home phone.

Go for one.

The doctor is 5 miles away.

Urgent, hurry, hurry.

Corra.

Okay, I'm on my way.

It is so nice of you

party has come.

Neither my late husband

I had done ...

as you have done.

I feel that there is no better

person to help ...

happen this time.

You know that would

anything for you.

It is very nervous.

I can not help you, look at my hands.

Trembling constantly.

I try to control it.

My late husband

always spoke of you ...

very warmly.

And you know that I ignored him always.

Evian??

Do you doubt?

You are the only one

knows the business ...

my husband.

Everything has been left in

most terrible disorder.

My house in the country to be sold.

I wonder if you can ...

have some time.

Yes.

You can be my guest

during the weekend.

And we can see those papers together.

With pleasure.

I can do it, if you like.

We can try.

Could it be possible tonight?

Not tonight ...

I have a meeting

important tonight.

Then tomorrow.

Okay, tomorrow.

I can?, I can make a confession?

Know what, Mrs. Pyke ...

always admired her tremendously.

"Any information

concerning ...

Scarlet Ring, will be rewarded ...

see Sherlock Holmes,

A 221 Baker Street. "

Who's there? Baker

Oh, it's you.

Who you thought you were?

How are you?

I'm cool as air.

We have a problem.

Yes, say it to my face ...

here sitting in a chair.

Someone is trying

to take off the chill.

Anyone of

information concerning ...

the Ring Scarlet

Robert Florey

Robert Florey (14 September 1900 – 16 May 1979) was a French-American director, screenwriter, film journalist and actor. Born as Robert Fuchs in Paris, he became an orphan at an early age and was then raised in Switzerland. In 1920 he worked at first as a film journalist, then as an assistant and extra in featurettes from Louis Feuillade. Florey moved to the United States in 1921. As a director, Florey's most productive decades were the 1930s and 1940s, working on relatively low-budget fillers for Paramount and Warner Brothers. His reputation is balanced between his avant-garde expressionist style, most evident in his early career, and his work as a fast, reliable studio-system director called on to finish troubled projects, such as 1939's Hotel Imperial. He directed more than 50 movies. His most popular film is likely the first Marx Brothers feature The Cocoanuts of 1929, and his 1932 foray into Universal-style horror, Murders in the Rue Morgue is regarded by horror fans as highly reflective of German expressionism. In 2006, as his 1937 film Daughter of Shanghai was selected for preservation in the United States National Film Registry by the Library of Congress, Florey was called "widely acclaimed as the best director working in major studio B-films". more…
