I have ample protection.
Then I bid you goodbye,
Sir Ronald.
Goodbye, Captain Mannery.
I am most grateful to you.
- Thank you, sir.
- Gentlemen.
All right, Gentlemen.
Guard, about face.
Forward march.
Halt.
Ah. It's the longest
short walk I ever had.
Hold that for a moment,
will you?
The Crown Jewels, gentlemen,
the accumulated wealth of ten
centuries of English kings,
a grave responsibility.
It's not often
this door is unlocked
and this is the key
to all this treasure.
Now!
(All fighting)
- The emerald!
- Where is it?
- The policemen,
where are they?
They're not policemen at all.
After them.
Guards, the stairs.
Sir Ronald, look.
The Star of Deli.
They've dropped it.
You see, Sir Ronald.
Every thing's turned out
And all thanks to your brilliant
friend, Sherlock Holmes.
So my fears were ridiculous
and that note was merely
the work of a crank.
Nobody would steal
the Star of Deli.
- No one there, Sir Ronald.
- Never mind, Sergeant.
I have the jewel.
I have a good mind to give
this story to the press.
It will put Holmes
in his place.
Oh, I wouldn't do that,
Sir Ronald.
- You have got the jewel back.
- I have indeed,
as safe as the
Crown Jewels of England,
but no thanks to Holmes.
Well, he did send me
in his place.
Yes, and it's a capital thing
he did.
You're a splendid fellow,
Watson.
You've done me a
great service tonight.
I shall see to it
that your courage is reported
- in due course
to the proper authorities.
- Thank you.
Come along, Sergeant.
- Turn out the lights.
- Yes, sir.
They got away, sir,
in the direction of Tower Hill.
But they left
what they came for.
- The emerald is safe.
- Oh good, sir.
All right, Sergeant.
Goodbye, my dear. I'll drive
over and see you tomorrow.
- You're terribly tired,
my child, aren't you?
- Yes, I am.
You better go to bed.
I'm going to look in on you
later and if you're not asleep,
- I shall be very severe.
- Uh-uh.
Whatever is the matter
with you, my dear?
I just noticed the time.
That clock on the landing.
won't be May the 13th anymore.
You must go to bed at once,
You really must.
- I'll go with you.
- I'd like you to.
Only I shouldn't take you away.
Nonsense.
They've all gone.
Besides no one misses
a middle-aged hostess.
Have a good rest, my dear,
and be sure to sleep late.
It's an invariable custom
of the house.
I'll try.
- Good night.
- Good night, my dear.
??
I was just coming to find you,
Miss Brandon.
There's a gentleman on the
terrace asking to see you
and he says it's
most important.
Mr. Holmes, thank you.
Ann, my dear.
What are you doing here?
Am I so unwelcome then?
Why did you come?
I've been terribly worried
about you, darling.
I wanted to be sure
you were safe.
Why did you think
I might not be safe?
Ann, whatever has
come over you?
Don't touch me.
Don't touch me.
Surely you're not afraid of me?
You are afraid.
That's how much
all the years have counted.
You think I want to hurt you.
I don't know why I don't.
Ann! Wait!
Come here, Ann!
??
Come along this way. Quick.
Ahh!
- Holmes, you all right?
- Never better, Watson.
And Miss Brandon?
She'll be all right,
the poor child she's fainted.
Look after her will you,
Andrews, and take her back
to the house.
Very good, Mr. Holmes?
What on earth is this, Holmes?
This, Watson,
- the instrument that killed
Lloyd Brandon.
- What?
Yes. Come and take a look
at his murderer.
He's badly hurt.
Can he be moved, doctor?
- Yes.
- Then I'll take him
to The Yard.
Yes, it's just as I suspected.
This club footed shoe
was a very clever device
my friend.
I'll wager you didn't think
of it yourself. Who put you
up to it?
The professor. He's said he'd
fix it so I don't get caught.
Professor Moriarty.
Si, Moriarty.
I'll kill him.
I scarcely think
you'll have the chance now.
So that clears up our case.
Clears it up?
We've only just begun.
Come along, Watson. Quick!
Shh. Don't move.
Stay where you are
and keep your eyes open.
All right, come on, Watson.
There's nobody here.
Well, why didn't you
say so before?
Oh, lilly pond.
- Damp.
- Damp, I'm wet through.
He's been shaving.
Moriarty's worn that beard
for years. Why would he shave
it off?
- To disguise himself,
of course.
- Obviously, Watson.
But why tonight especially
for what purpose?
Huh?
A Baedeker.
What would Moriarty
be doing with a guidebook?
He knows London
like a cab driver.
Look, Watson, look.
The Tower of London.
Sergeant Bullfinch.
Moriarty without his beard.
- Then he stole the emerald!
- I wonder what exactly he did
do, or rather is doing.
What do you mean, Holmes?
Don't you see, my dear Watson.
Moriarty concocted
that Brandon case
with all its fantastic
convolutions expressly to
divert my attention
till the time the Star of Deli
was delivered.
emerald but he didn't get it.
We fooled him.
That's exactly the point,
Watson. He didn't want the
Star of Deli.
- What?
- No.
The real crime
has not yet come to light.
He caused a man to be murdered
solely in order to distract me.
He staged that fiasco
at the Tower of London.
Why I don't know
but one thing I'm certain.
It was all done with a purpose.
Somewhere in London
at this very moment something
tremendous is happening.
He said he was going to do it
and he's doing it now,
the most stupendous,
the most incredible crime
of the century,
the crowning act
of his career...
The crowning act.
Crowning?
"St. Edward's crown.
This was the crown stolen from
by Colonel Blood
and his accomplices,
regalia is estimated at three
million pounds."
Watson, the Crown Jewels!
We're wasting time.
Ay, cabby.
Never mind, get in, Watson.
I say, steady. Drive a little
careful, old boy.
Serg, Sergeant!
- What is it, McKenzie?
- An accident, Sergeant.
Give me your hand.
Get this man out of here.
Well, what were
you trying to do,
batter your way
right into the Tower of London?
preposterous.
Well, what were you doing?
- Well I--
- Where is your cabby?
Cabby?
Oh, yes, yes, cabby.
Well, where is he?
I don't know,
I haven' the faintest idea.
- Bring him along
to the posting room.
- Where?
Did you hear a shot?
I did, sir, I thought it came
from the tower.
Follow me on the double.
Well, "Ann Brandon 21,
were married this morning
at the Castone Hall
Register Office."
Well, that takes care of that
but I still don't understand
involved in the mystery.
Alfred?
- May I borrow your violin?
- Certainly, governor.
I said, I still don't
understand how young Hunter
became involved.
Perfectly simple. Whatever
Gerald Hunter did was done to
