Oh, what happened to
your charming companion?
She said she had a headache
and went to her cabin.
I think it's time
we all turned in.
Gentlemen,
I bid you goodnight.
Twenty past 10:
00,it's a good idea.
Goodnight.
- Goodnight.
- Goodnight, gentlemen.
Sit down.
There's no hurry.
So what do we do now,
Gergor
My dear Mirko,
time to cultivate patience.
It's so much safer.
He turned out the light.
I promise you
I shall not fail.
Agh!
Oh, how unfortunate,
Mr. Mirko.
notoriously treacherous.
I'm afraid you've
broken your wrist!
You, you pig!
You shouldn't have played
shuffleboard today, you know.
When I saw that
skillful hand
and unerringly
accurate eye of yours,
I remembered the
Circus of Medlano, in Paris,
and your amazing exhibition
of Knife throwing.
Goodnight.
Oh, good morning,
Mr. Holmes.
Oh, there you are.
- Good morning.
- Good morning, Mr. Gregor.
I heard of your friend's
unfortunate accident.
Will you please
convey my sympathy?
It may take a
long time to heal.
You have to have patience,
you know.
I was explaining the
advantage of patience to...
to Mr. Mirko only last night.
Now me, I am a very
patient man myself,
result well worth waiting for,
don't you agree, Mr. Holmes?
Patience has advantages
under certain conditions.
We are in accord,
Mr. Holmes.
Yes, aren't we!
he slipped and fell down
at 3:
00 o'clock in the morning.Drunk most, probably.
Possibly.
He's got a nasty fracture.
Took me over an hour
to set.
I've got no sleep again.
Most regrettable,
too bad you couldn't
blame it on your insomnia.
Insomnia?
You know I always
sleep like a top.
Well, I don't
think either of us
is going to get
much sleep tonight.
Oh, you mean that
woman's party?
Silly creature.
What on earth does she
want to give a party for?
It wasn't referring to
Mrs. Dunhams' party, Watson,
deadly, as that will
undoubtedly be.
No, this is the last opportunity
to prevent our successfully
carrying out our mission.
We arrive at Algiers
late tonight.
Good morning, my dear.
I should say
the young lady
isn't looking forward
to arriving in Algiers
with any real great pleasure.
Do you notice, Watson,
she hasn't let her music
case out of her sight
since our first meeting?
Well, now that you
mention it, yes.
I want you to ask her to sing,
if she makes an excuse,
ask her if the music
is in that case,
leave the rest to me.
You will see an
interesting reaction.
I'll do it right now.
I still haven't heard
You promised to sing
it for me, you know.
Oh, I'm sorry, I'm afraid I
don't know it from memory.
No, no, no, I won't
take no for an answer.
Perhaps you put the music
for it here in your case.
I'm afraid I don't
feel like singing.
I beg your pardon?
What did I tell you.
Interesting, isn't it?
Interesting.
By Jove he's right.
Don't come any nearer.
If you do, I'll...
I won't come any nearer,
I promise.
But may I talk to you?
My dear, Sheila.
I don't know yet
just what you're in
but I'm sure that
whatever it is,
you are an innocent victim.
I don't know what
you're talking...
Well,
to begin with, the way you
acted the first time you saw me
was a bit of a blow
to my vanity, you know.
Men are such vain
creatures, aren't they?
So I prefer to think
that it was something
unexpected that you found
in your music case
that caused you to
react in such fashion.
I saw nothing.
Oh, come now,
you must have.
And so since the quickest
way to relieve fear
with someone else,
please forgive me if
I attempt to find out
just what it is that your
music case contains.
- But I told you...
- Wait a minute.
Come along, won't you.
Please.
Won't you sit down,
please?
Now, it's unlikely to
be important documents,
since to know
their significance
you'd do need a time
to examine them.
But there is one thing
which is small enough
to be easily concealed
a jewel or jewels.
Then...
then there's this
fellow Hassan
in whose caf you've been
engaged as an entertainer.
He's been suspected
for years
by the police
of two continents
stolen goods in the Near East.
So... circumstances
would indicate
the jewels you found
in your music case
are both stolen and
extremely valuable.
And since there
have been no other
important
robberies in London
for some
considerable time,
I venture to say that
you're carrying the...
The Duchess Brookdales'
emeralds.
Am I right?
You're quite right,
Mr. Holmes.
May I?
I left the briefcase
in my manager's office.
He brought it to me
just before we sailed.
Yes,
I recognized the emeralds from
the newspaper description.
Oh, Mr. Holmes,
I've been so frightened.
Don't worry, my dear.
Don't worry.
I'll return the necklace.
And I assure that the reward the
insurance company has offered is yours
and will more than make up to
you for any loss you may incur
by the cancellation
of the Hassan contract,
- and will enable you to go home to...
- Brooklyn.
Brooklyn.
Well, I knew a most charming
He's now a resident
in Sing Sing prison.
You know, I'm not going
to have to carry
this briefcase around
with me any more.
How can I ever thank you?
If you really must
thank me,
please do so by singing Dr. Watson's
song for him, will you?
You're a darling.
Extraordinary sight.
Elementary, my dear fellow,
and very pleasant.
- Good evening.
- Good evening.
Oh, that looks
very nice, Steward.
- May I help you? - No, I want to put
I want to rearrange
the seating.
See, I'm using them
as place cards.
And I put the name
on each.
That nice, fat gentleman,
it was his suggestion.
I hope nothing goes wrong.
Nothing will go wrong
this time, my dear Mirko.
Thank you,
that was charming.
I love that old song.
Now you must sing for me,
Doctor,
you promised you know.
Well, if you like.
I haven't sung for some time.
There's nobody here.
Remember, you told me you
used to sing a song of...
- What was it, Loch Lomond?
- Yes.
C'mon now, Doctor,
just to please me.
Nikolas.
Dr. Watson.
And this is me.
There,
I think that's done.
Now, I'm going to have a
few words with the chef
to make sure everything's
taken care of.
May I show you the way?
Thank you.
Hardly any difference.
Bravo, Watson, bravo.
I look forward to seeing
you at the Opera Hall.
I didn't know
you were there.
Seems my voice
is a bit rusty.
You're just being modest,
Dr. Watson,
it was delightful.
Eh, Childre?
Oh, delightful.
My dear Kingston, why would they
have constructed it so large
if it were not to
accommodate city volumes...
