Is this.
happened to Charles...
...I had time to change
And that's what I did exactly the murderer
twice.
The first time in the Crow's Nest and
the second time in the Castle.
So, you know who is the murderer?
No, really, but..
That the murderer could
strike again at any time...
So please, if you know something
of the two deaths in question,
Not have told me, please
let me know promptly...
I beg you.
And ask.. with deadly seriousness.
Do not?
Thanks.
What is it?
- A telegram for you, old friend.
Excuse me.
I see it as soon as possible.
I have valuable information
about the death of Dr. Strange.
Signed by Margaret Rasbridger.
M. Margaret...
I worry M.
That said Wally's journal.
Yeah, yeah, you're right.
Charles, I think it's good to go to her.
Colonel Matthew informs on this meeting.
Then Charles accompanies the sanatorium.
Okay.
Thank you.
And what will you do?
I'm not going anywhere.
This case is so complex,
it my duty to stay here.
To think.
OK?
We have to tell Monsieur Poirot.
Ricardo has a confession to make.
A confession?
Come in, please.
Now Of what nature is this confession?
It's not what you think, Monsieur Poirot.
I am not the murderer.
But Egg
has convinced me to read other things.
Miss Egg quite right.
But why would I think that was
You murderer.
By the way appeared in the Castle.
But the truth is that the
Yes, I wrote that he should
fake an accident and then climb.
Castle...
...said he could not write his reasons,
But then I'd explain.
And of course explained it later?
I had no chance.
- If.
Do you have a copy of the letter?
No.
He said he destroyed it.
Does that called?
And there's something else, tell Ricardo.
Well, after I asked Colonel Matthew.
Was 10.
I went to get my coat.
Miss Crisp was there, said he
was looking for her shawl...
...or something.
Anyway, when I went to put my jacket
something fell from it.
What did you fall?
Not really saw him fall.
Do you understand?
So what was it?
That she picked it up and handed it to me.
It was a newspaper clipping
about the Benzotina...
...and its deadly effects.
She had put it in his jacket to Ricardo.
Remember what Freddie said Dayton?
Like sniffing saw his room that night.
Bet she's the killer.
Kill the Reverend Babbington?
A man who had not seen before.
Least of Dr. Strange.
No.
- Maybe it's a psychopath.
Hates men.
Smart people tend to madness.
Not so fast, Egg.
This is Hastings.
Poirot.
Oh. Not so fast,
Hastings.
What.
Oh, no, no.
Yeah, I know.
Yes, yes, I see.
Understand.
Yes, I understand.
Bye.
Thank Hastings.
Goodbye.
Mrs. Rasbridger has been murdered.
No?
- Yes.
How?
This morning
received by mail a box of chocolates...
Liqueur fillings.. with Benzotina.
Could you say something?
No, I think it probably was murdered..
For not saying anything.
What do you mean?
I do not understand.
Not me. And the telegram?
Hastings received the
telegram, he delivered a boy...
I got from an old gardener sanatorium.
I had seen him fall a window.
Involved in a 500 peso bill.
According to the boy, the gardener had
said to stay with the change.
Delivered by him, the telegram.
I still do not understand.
What's wrong with that?
YES.
Play often the family happy, while...
...solves his cases, Monsieur Poirot?
Oh this is a memory from my childhood.
When I was very young...
Used them to learn to concentrate.
Never quit.
What will that mean Mr. Mug?
Mr. mug, the milkman,
ding, ding. I remember, yes.
Is Charles. Edward W.
Muggins was his real name
before becoming an actor.
The real name of Charles is Muggins?
Really?
Probably looked well.
Did he give you any ideas?
No, to my knowledge.
Where all this leads, Poirot?
If you do not mind, I'm
sorry to be so unsociable...
...but I need to concentrate
as he had never done before.
Do you think that will be sure
to attend the function...
...tomorrow night?
He's Work.
We have invited all the rehearsal.
What did you say?
Rehearsal.
Rehearsal.
What?
How blind I was.
Rehearsal.
Miss Milray. Good afternoon.
Sorry, no Charles...
Mr. Cartwright not here.
I know, but he and the
others will come soon...
The others?
- Yes, all.
Including the police.
Mrs. Rasbridger found dead this afternoon.
Charles and Hastings just called.
How was she killed?
She was poisoned, mademoiselle.
With Benzotina.
I wonder if
can prepare large amounts of tea?
Research can long endure.
If.
Can not do that, mademoiselle.
What is trying to destroy the evidence.
Reconstruct a crime
and make it make sense,
both the common man, as the lawyer.
And sometimes even to criminal himself.
It is the solemn duty of the detective.
Should prepare your case as if
Willing to resist all
efforts to bring him down.
Start So, my friends,
at the beginning, with the
murder of Reverend Babbington...
You were right, mademoiselle Egg.
And I was wrong.
You and Charles Cartwright believed.
Reverend Babbington had been killed.
I thought it was not possible
to impose a victim...
...a drink,
a drink in particular that
has a cart full of identical cups.
All this is not obvious, Monsieur Poirot.
Maybe for you, sir...
Mrs., but not for me.
The second crime was announced I...
...by Mr. Charles
Cartwright in Los Angeles.
E immediately realized...
...both formed two parts of the same crime.
But who could have been there?
To murder the Reverend Babbington.
One is Miss Milray.
And the other Charles Cartwright.
But neither
was present in the second murder.
The main suspect in the second
crime was Carlos Morales.
Butler seems to have
vanished into thin air.
Although there was a guest who
attracted attention for a moment,
Not so, Mr. Montoya.
When we were introduced by Miss Egg.
They referred to you as a Communist.
She said, laughing,
And I smiled at that, until
I noticed a look of...
...hostility between you
and the Reverend Babbington.
We had our differences, Mr. Poirot.
Especially because of Central America.
Nothing serious, just discussions.
In any case, I'm not a communist.
My respect for personal freedoms is such.
I do not mind their beliefs.
Long as not culminate in a murder.
However, their performance
in the second party...
...was unusual.
Appeared looking disheveled...
...pretending to have had an
accident in the vicinity.
Later I explained that this...
...scene itself was the
brainchild of Dr. Strange...
...asked to represent
comedy that in a letter that you destroyed.
Convinces nor with that
newspaper clipping...
..., falling from..
Pocket of his jacket, he spoke of
Benzotina course.
Someone must have put it there
. Since we told.
Perhaps, mademoiselle
Egg. But who was?
Shed light on the obvious.
In fact, I agree with you mademoiselle Egg,
