Romantic, Mom.

Of course it does.

All the French are.

Not afraid of a good sex.

Are different from our

main libraries.

Salome Otterbourne vetoed

Speaking the truth

about men and women.

But she moves on.

The truth, yes.

It's so hard to speak the truth

Thank you, sir.

Would you like to dance

a tango with me

Miss?

Exercise after dinner.

Do you dance tango, Colonel?

Little, Mrs. Otterbourne.

I teach dancing right,

as in Spain,

when it was known as''chica''

I mean, with a touch

sensual and erotic.

But my, Jackie!

Leave us alone!

Waiter.

Mr Poirot.

Mr Poirot.

What I saw today with the Linnet.

How much you paid for

keep me away?

I do not accept payment

nor accept.

What you say

is friendship.

What you have to tell me?

I do something ridiculous?

I'm crazy?

Bury the dead.

Not like the Egyptians ...

keeping the body

to ensure the eternity

the soul. No.

And definitely appropriate.

Give back to the past.

Look just ahead.

Remember that time

heals.

If you think I am suffering

is mistaken.

Actually I am

enjoying.

His pleasure

the worst part of all this.

I do not care.

Simon was me and loved me.

After she got e. ..

It's a small thing

but lethal.

My father taught me

to have good aim.

Sometimes

want to put this weapon

in her head

and then slowly

pull the trigger.

I hear this noise,

every day.

I know how you feel.

We all feel that sometimes.

But I warn, Miss,

do not let the evil go

in your heart ...

She's going to stay there.

If love can not live there,

wickedness and will replace it.

How sad, miss.

Hello, Mr. P.

- Returning to the hotel?

- Where else?

It is a surprise to Linnet.

Do you think she like?

Depends. She smokes?

Only A. Craven

The purpose

already talked to Jackie?

Yes, a few minutes.

Good. I hope you

created court.

To her mind

is the eternal vengeance.

Seriously?

Whenever I'm serious,

my friend.

Jackie is stubborn, I know,

and very possessive.

- But surely ...

- I wanted to possess you?

I suppose so.

Yes

She has

an impish genius''''.

Whether the reins.

Yes, and a man

can not afford it, right?

Not at all.

When I met Linnet ...

How will I explain? ...

It was like the moon

after dawn,

have not seen.

Once you know it,

Jackie disappeared.

Yes some women

has this power.

But how to solve

his current dilemma?

I have an awesome plan

and guaranteed.

Driver

to the railway station

Let's go to Alexandria.

For the railway station.

As fast as you can.

Quick!

Thanks.

See. There it is.

Welcome, welcome.

Welcome aboard

of Karnak.

My name is Mr. Chowdhury.

I am the supervisor of this boat

and their pleasure and joy

My only concern is

and satisfaction.

The purpose

I'm here .... I'm here

Yes, I have here a list

with the names

and cabins.

Let me guess by their faces

who is who,

OK?

You are Mrs. and Miss.

Otterbourne.

- Right?

- Wrong.

I'm Mrs. Van Schuyler

and I go to my cabin

immediately.

The Bowers will be in the cabin

Conversely, the other side.

The hot afternoon sun

do miracles

cheeks with these bitter

and sour it.

Yes, right now, ma'am.

You must be Yes.

Dr. Bessner,

with this elegant

German mustache.

I fear that never

come to be a detective, sir.

The mustache is undoubtedly

elegant, is Belgian.

My name is Poirot

Hercule Poirot.

The famous Mr. Poirot.

I bow to you.

I bow.

Look, it would be simpler

we speak the names

and you tell us

the cabin.

Simpler? Yes, miss.

Undoubtedly simpler.

Definitely.

Una brilliant lack

complication.

Right now the assistant

take them to their cabins.

Wizard!

Sailed.

I suggest you give

a final

look at the city.

Wizard!

We did it.

We got rid of her,

finally.

What to expect?

You're a genius.

Not bad

Simon to the silly.

Fabulous, is not it?

Miss You. Ridgeway,

is not it?

And the lady is Mrs. Van Schuyler.

I wondered if

would break the ice.

Rarely speak

with strangers.

And never with strangers

on their honeymoon.

I'm happy to break

his rule.

The rules are

to break.

At least my

for me.

They're beautiful.

Thank you.

And amazing

if we know how

produced.

One grain of sand

is introduced into an oyster,

that eventually becomes

in a pearl of great price

that adorns the neck

a beautiful girl like you.

I never thought that way

It should.

The oyster almost dies.

Let the cabin.

It's time for your massage.

My companion Bowers.

He fought 15 rounds''''

with Jack Dempsey once.

He never

was the same man.

Sorry, Miss. Ridgeway.

Ms. Doyle,

Ms. Simon Doyle.

Will have to forgive

Mlle. Bowers.

She does not know

statuses.

I was dazzled

for its pearls.

Shut up, Bowers.

Would give all his teeth

to possess them.

Just because you feel her anger,

or rather his father,

- Need not be impolite.

- Rancor?

Melhuish Ridgeway

ruined my family.

Well,

should be grateful.

The contrary, it would

the pleasure of working for me.

Could kill her just for that.

Tea, lady?

Salome Otterbourne am

and want to exchange a word.

We've done that

through our attorneys.

It's about that

I came to beg ...

- Petition?

- Crave, if you want to appeal.

We writers are flowering

in our language.

And defamatory

in his writings.

I regret that we have interpreted

''Passion''in the persimmon

this way.

The intention was only to show

the heart of a girl

that beats the sound

of primitive drums.

He does not understand that what I wrote

was very flattering?

Frankly,

Mrs. Otterbourne

I do not consider the comparison

with a female baboon

nymphomaniac, a caring

and suggest that our lawyers

decide the appropriate compensation

be targeted by

its vulgar stupidity.

Good afternoon.

Philistine.

I will show

What is reputation.

Sorry to interrupt.

Uncle Andrew.

These are the documents

you need to sign.

The contract

Chrysler Building

Concessions

silver mine

the transfers

Baku Oil

and fusion korn krisps

Chew Chew.

Sign on last page,

down, baby.

Uncle Andrew, I have not read them.

It is not necessary.

Everything has been reviewed

and revised twice

for me.

I always read everything

before signing.

My father taught me that.

I told her not to trust

anyone not in the lawyers.

Darling Melhuish.

That sense of humor!

Never read legal documents

in life

and not think about to start now.

Do not tell.

- There is a bit irresponsible.

- Yes, totally

but I die for a Manhattan.

Is this you?

Okay ...

to be our honeymoon.

Very good.

Now the next.

I hope not to tease.

I'ma lawyer and I mean

I admire your attitude.

His father was right.

Never sign

a document without reading.

I'm sure you agree.

Of course.

Sure, no hurry.

Excuse me.

Hopefully not offending him.

And if you did, Mr. ...?

- Race. Colonel Race.

- It's that been done, Colonel?

Lawyers are

deal with offenses.

- We came to the bar?

- Thanks. Very nice.

And you, Mr. P.?

Ha reason to celebrate.

My plan to leave Jackie

was a success.

Yes
