What are you talking about?

Your friend, Cora.

Are you suggesting that I murdered Cora

by pushing her into the lake?

That's absurd. You must be mad.

Well, you stuck a knife in her first.

I wasn't all that close, but...

I recognised her body.

Anyway, what about

the other one, Anne?

Where's she? In the lake too?

You're not absolutely

certain, are you?

No one will be able to

prove that the body is Cora.

It's pretty daring of you to come,

don't you think?

Cora's dead. The corpse

I fished out of the lake is her.

No, it's not Cora.

You've got a damn good line of talk.

But you won't fool the law

that easy, will you?

So we've got to come

to an understanding.

We'd better arrange this between us.

You've got no other choice.

What is it you want? Money?

What else is there for me

in this house?

Oh, yes, I want money.

Lots of it.

I've been watching you for months

and waiting. And now it's time.

(Thunderclaps)

Cora!

Cora!

Cora!

Cora!

Cora!

Cora!

Cora!

(Doorbell rings)

(Nick) I can hear the bell ringing,

but I can't see anyone coming.

Maybe she's asleep.

Oh, this bell can be heard

in all parts of the house.

It's just not normal for Miss Helen

to be asleep this time of day

and not hear the bell.

Thought I saw somebody

moving by the staircase.

Not certain, though.

It's difficult to see clearly.

Better use your set of keys,

don't you think?

Go and have a look round the back

at the stables. Perhaps Bradys there.

(Hannah) Oh, no! No! No!

Oh!

Now, try and pull yourself together,

Hannah. Come along. -But Miss Helen...

I'm going to telephone for the police.

-But Miss Helen...

Just keep calm. Come along.

-Where's Miss Helen?

We'll have to find her.

-Yes, yes, I know.

Calm yourself. Go and sit down.

Leave it all to me.

But Miss Helen... -Just sit down.

-We've got to find Miss Helen. -I know.

Oh, where is she?

(Burke) Hello? Police?

(Dialogue indistinct)

(Burke) Thank you.

I couldn't find anyone in the stables.

Came in through the kitchen door.

Somebody must've left it open.

We've found Brady's body

in the living room.

He's been murdered.

Come with me, Nick.

Stay where you are, Helen.

The police will be here soon.

Miss Ramsay? It's us.

Your friends.

We're here to help you.

Miss Helen?

Look at me, listen to me.

It's Hannah,

it's Hannah talking to you.

You've... you've not been well.

You've been through a bad dream...

The end
