And Then There Were None Page #6

... we both are behaving like idiots.

Don't you take me a barmy.

I prefer living here.

Someone is coming.

-- Miss. Claythorne!

-- I told you stayed locked in your room!

I am looking for a. ..

Uuh.

He is right, Vera.

We should be more careful!

-- Come on!

-- Stay here! Both of you!

Now I can do what

I came out to do.

Do you know anything about

electricity?

Do not bother me.

I get it!

-- Stay where you are!

- I shan't move an inch.

Neither will I. Until

the light comes on.

-- Do you think it will?

-- Why not?

This is no accident.

Someone wants...

... this house

to be dark tonight.

-- Who?

- The one we fear.

Do not fear, Doctor.

But he has made a mistake.

This trick of putting out

the lights ...

... He has 2 people,

you and me.

Now we can trust

each other.

I see! Yes, the idea was

to keep us to fear each other.

But now we can

form alibis you and I.

and find the murderer.

We no longer have anything

to conceal from each other, have we?

Oh, oh, I needed that.

-- And now?

- Now we can tell each other the truth,

the entire truth.

Who's going to speak first?

Very well, I shall begin.

As you know, Mr. Owen is saying that

I was responsible ...

...for the death of one

Edward Seaton.

It is perfectly

true.

He was an innocent man

on trial for his life.

I had nothing

against him.

I just wanted to ruin the

reputation of his defending council ...

... who lost the case,

while his client ...

... lost his life.

Doctor? Tell us the truth. Your fate

depends on that. I'm convinced to that.

The gramophone record did not lie...

...I operated on Mrs. Creese

while I was under the influence of...

Guilty I was. But

of drinking, not of killing.

I do not see where this

is getting us.

Sit down, Mr. Blore.

This is getting us to a

very important conclusion.

-- Is it not right, doctor?

If I were you, I would speak, Mr. Blore.

-- I did not kill anybody!

- We are listening, Mr. Blore.

The plain old chap was innocent, all right.

but I was mixed up ...

... with a gang

without a ....

On my testimony

he got sentenced for life.

That's all.

But he died in prison, didn't he?

-- Of course he did!

How could I know that would happen?

What about yours., Mr. Lombard, ...

... what about those 21 poor

natives in South Africa?

Don't get excited, Blore.

Mr. Lombard is

unable to deny a thing.

Aaa! It's the first thing you said

I believe.

Are you leaving us, Miss.

Claythorne?

- My poor child, you're trembling.

-I, I am so cold.

Would you like us to postpone

this inqury ...

... until litting

the fire?

That would mean going outside

to get wood as Rogers did.

No, we'll wait while

you get your coat. Thank you.

Stay here, Mr.

Lombard.

Nothing can happen to her while we

all remain in this room.

-- Bring a light!

-- Who is you see?

-- I'm Lombard, where is Blore?

- How do I know? It's dark.

-- Where have you been all this time?

- I went to my room to get this candle.

-- Where have you been?

- I have been looking for my flashlight.

Where is Blore?

Blore!

What the devil

you're doing in my room?

Your room? That's why

I couldn't find anything.

-- What happened to you?

- Somebody bumped into me.

-- Did you hear anything?

- Yes, something like a shot.

It sounds you are

a bit jumpy, both of you. Nerves.

It is Vera's.

Vera?

Vera! What happened?

Don't be frightened. What happened?

- He was in my room.

-- Who?

- I felt ... something like a hand.

-- Who was it?

I, I do not know, my candles

went out.

We'll soon find out.

Lights! Lights! Lights!

Seaweed.

It felt like

a cold hand.

That is what

Miss. Claythorne walked into.

Who brought it in here?

Who brought it

into the house?

- Miss. Brent.

-- Are you sure Miss Brent is ...?

Dead as a dawn I know ...

-- Where is the judge?

That's funny, I thought

he came up with us.

So did I. He was right

behind me on the staircase.

I thought I bumped into him

when I heard that shot.

-- Shot! What I tell you?

-- What?

The funny old man knew too much.

-- You see, you heard a shot.

- Yes.

Do not you see? It took us by

surprise in the dark.

He played us a trick

to go downstairs.

There is one way to find out.

It's my revolver.

Now, it looks too easy.

All right, judge, come outside.

Do not think I can not see you.

He has been shot

through the head.

Only one shot

was fired.

Who will be next?

Another one proved

innocent. Too late.

He found a solution.

That's why he had to be silenced.

-- Silenced by who?

-- by whom? Don't you remember?

Ah, one moment, Miss.

Claythorne!

Just the judge was about

to question you, ...

... You came up here

presumably to get your coat.

True?

Yes.

You open that door, wind

blows out your candles, ...

... seeweed touches

your face, ...

... You scream.

Perfect, perfect.

But considreable time elapses,

and then we find you way down there.

What made you

on the wrong way?

She did not know where she was going.

She was hysterical.

Agreed.

But if Miss. Claythorne

had not screamed, ...

... we would still

be in the dining room ...

... and the judge would be alive.

Wait a minute.

Don't confuse things.

One of you two pulled the

trigger and ..

... put a blame on Miss Claythorne.

And You wait a minute, Mr Lombard.

We all know very well that the judge ...

... was on the point of

an important discovery.

What do we know what is

in judge's mind?

I do know. He took me

to his confidence. Truth, entire truth.

Miss. Claythorne, did you or did you not

commit ...

... the crime which

the gramaphone accused you?

I'd rather not

talk about it.

Aah, but you must.

We all confessed ...

our little ...

errors.

All except you.

Come now, my girl.

You didn't really kill

this Bartley chap, did you?

Will you take my word

if I tell you I did not?

I'm afraid, I will.

Then

you have my word for it.

And don't ask me

any more questions.

Can't you see she is

telling the truth?

That is precisely

her mistake.

- I do not see why.

- You will. You will.

The judge reasoned us.

Owen enticed us

to this island ...

... to be punished

for past crimes.

Right!

We 3 had a bit of...

shall I say, our guilt.

Right!

Therefore, we can not

be interested ...

... in punishment of

a crime.

Right!

Conclusion:
Owen is the one

who has not committed any past crime.

I get it! What a

wonderful brain.

The thing, he could not

save his own life.

Yes, but he saved

ours.

Yes, of course, that is

the important thing.

Do you understand now,

Mr. Lombard?

Oh, it is great, convincing,

mathematical deduction.

- Oh, wait a minute.

-- Oh, no!

Not you either,

Blore.

- Now nobody has it.

-- It is an excellent arrangement!

Now we can all

sleep.

I'll turn in, gentlemen.

Good night,

gentlemen.

Doctor, I find one flaw

in your theory.

I can destroy it in 4

words, do you want to hear them?

Suppose I said:

"I am Mr. Owen. "

It would be most interesting.

But quite unlikely.

Trouble with you, Lombard,
