Julie

It's the voice

of my one love

And it promises ecstasy

Day and night,

it is calling me

But I'm afraid to go

Ahh, ahh, ahh

Julie

Though I run

to escape it

Still it calls

irresistibly

And although

it's my destiny

Sorrow is there, I know

Ahh, ahh, ahh

Warm are his arms

Tender, his kiss

But in his eyes

Hidden,

the danger lies

Julie

Must I go

where he leads me

Though it be

through eternity

Oh, I know

I will never be free

Free from the voice

that calls

Julie

How can you humiliate me like this?

What you said to him in

front of all those people,

it's unforgivable.

Is it because he's a cousin

of Bob's? Is that it?

No. It's because

he's a man- any man!

And you were annoyed

because I stood there and talked

to him for 10 minutes.

Is that it?

Well, if this is what married

life is going to be,

then we have

nothing,

absolutely nothing!

And I can't bear it any

more, Lyle, I really can't... and I won't!

You're hurting... take your foot off of my-

you're hurting me!

Please!

Please.

You're hurting me!

Get your foot-

You'll kill us!

Lyle!

Please.

Please!

What are you doing?

Lyle!

Please!

Lyle!

Lyle!

Lyle!

Aah!

Julie!

Julie!

Julie.

Oh, Julie...

I'm so sorry...

so desperately sorry.

Help me fight

this thing.

I was jealous,

jealous...

blindly jealous.

Julie...

Julie, you've got

to believe me.

I only meant

to frighten you.

That's all I wanted to do at first.

I started grinding that

pedal harder and harder,

and I couldn't stop.

I couldn't stop.

It was the thought of losing you.

Julie...

I love you

so very much.

He'd nearly killed us both,

yet he seemed so sorry,

so desperately sorry,

that my heart

went out to him.

I didn't know what to think.

I just didn't know.

Darling...

Cliff told me something this morning

that was

very upsetting.

He told me that Bob

did not take his life

for the reason we supposed at all.

And he said it couldn't

have been a financial thing

because he even tried

to help him.

Naturally, he assumed

that there was some...

inner thing that

he didn't know about.

This must have come

as quite a shock to you.

Yes, it did.

Of course, it did...

because, Lyle,

if financial worries

weren't at the bottom of all...

then what was?

I don't know...

but I never believed that money

problem idea. You know that.

Well, it just

makes no sense...

no sense at all.

Look, Julie, it's as

inscrutable to me as to you...

and everyone else

why a man like Bob

would commit suicide.

But the fact remains,

Bob did do it. He's gone.

And you are now

Mrs. Benton.

You're cold.

Shall I get you

something warm?

No. I'm all right,

thank you.

Julie, there is no sense

in rehashing this thing.

I'd appreciate dropping the

subject of Bob once and for all.

Let it lie. Bury him.

You're- you're

jealous of him.

Yes.

I was jealous of him

from the start...

from the moment

I first saw you.

So... even

while I was still married to Bob,

even before he died,

Lyle was jealous of him.

Oh, it gave me

a feeling of apprehension

I couldn't shake.

I had to talk to Cliff.

I had to have more answers.

Cliff.

Oh, hiya, Julie.

I had to see you

just for a minute.

I've got all weekend.

How about over there?

Fine.

Excuse me.

As a matter of fact,

I should be at the lodge right now.

I have a golf date

with Peggy Davis.

I just wanted to ask you

something about our conversation.

Sure, Julie.

What's up?

Cliff, are you sure that

Bob had no reservations

about accepting that loan?

I'm sure he didn't.

It's just as I sald yesterday,

it was a good deal for

Bob, too. He knew that.

Then why did he do it,

Cliff? Why?

You expecting him?

Who?

Lyle.

Oh, as a matter of fact, he

could drop by anytime, I guess.

Tell me something,

Julie,

does he blow

his stack that way often?

No, he doesn't.

Of course not.

He's a very sweet and

wonderful guy, ordinarily.

Ordinarily?

Except for

that jealousy of his.

You're due at the lodge.

Come on, I'll walk with you.

All right.

Julie, yesterday...

yesterday

after you left here,

anything happen between you and Lyle?

Why do you ask that?

I saw that look

on Lyle's face

when he went barging after

you. I didn't quite like it.

Got a cigarette?

Yeah.

Something did happen, didn't it, Julie?

It's not important,

Cliff, really.

I have a feeling there's

something more seriously wrong

than you're letting on.

Well, it's partly my fault,

in his belief.

I threatened to leave him.

Threatened

to leave him?

Yes, and I didn't

mean it.

But that's

what made him

go off the deep end.

It was right after we left here.

Julie, let me

get this straight.

You mean he jammed the accelerator-

jammed it all the way down?

Cliff, he didn't know what

he was doing, really he didn't.

So it was

a crazy risk,

an irrational thing to do, Julie.

Has he always been

so jealous?

No.

It's just since

we've been married.

Cliff, I don't know what I'm

going to do about it. Really, I don't.

I can't say, "Lyle,

darling, I love you.

You've got to believe me

and have faith and trust. "

He doesn't

understand it.

If I go to the club

and chat

with someone-

like you, for instance-

he has hallucinations.

The rope hung from the

rafter in the basement.

Bob had stood on something- a box, wasn't it?

He'd apparently kicked

it out from under him?

Please, Cliff, do we have to talk about it?

Really, it's very difficult.

Julie...

did it ever occur

to you

that Bob's neck could have

been placed in that rope

after he'd

been strangled?

After...

By a murderer.

I mean, it is a possibility.

By someone who wanted

him out of the way.

Julie...

Julie, was anyone

else there that night?

No...

no one else.

Wasn't Lyle there

when it happened?

I told you he wasn't.

Julie, nothing more

can be done for Bob.

But you're in danger, grave danger.

That's why I've questioned

you this way, to make you see it.

Lyle was there, wasn't he?

All right.

Yes, he was there.

He was

our house guest,

but that doesn't prove

anything, does it, Cliff?

It doesn't prove

one thing.

Come on!

I'm coming!

Hello!

Hi. Would you care

to join us?

No. I'll wait for you

in the lodge.

All right.

When

I got back to the lodge,

Lyle was in the middle

of a business call to New York,

so I went on in. Frankly, I was

in no mood for golf.

After a few holes,

I had had it.

Mrs. Benton.

Hello, Harry.

One diamond.

Pass.

Three diamonds.

Pass.

Five diamonds.

Pass.

I pass.

Lyle

was talking to his manager,

they were working out his tour for the Fall.

You see, Lyle was

a very talented pianist,

topflight in his field.

Can I have a package

of these, please?

Pass.

You lay them out, partner.

Um... scotch

on the rocks

and a manhattan, please.

Thank you,

ma'am.

Julie, I've been

thinking it over.

These interlocking bits

of suspicious evidence-

the way they add up-

I'm expecting my husband-

They can't be ignored. They simply can't.

I said I'm expecting
