equally delightful room.
The room, yes, signor.
The view, no.
- I have only a room at the back.
- Then she must have this room.
- Oh, no.
- No, I insist.
Take my luggage to whatever room.
I'll see you later.
It is a very delightful room, signor.
You will be most comfortable.
I'm sure I will.
Thank you very much indeed.
Well, it seems we have
a married look.
Because you're after my blood,
no doubt.
Don't talk nonsense.
We've got no time to waste.
- What are you doing?
- Can't be too careful.
My dear friend Spado might have
left me a welcoming present.
That's all clear.
Bombs aren't the Italian line.
They prefer more subtle methods.
Well, the sooner you talk to him
the better. Isn't it time you left?
Miss Winter.
Since our relationship
became less formal,
I observe a tendency
on your part to nag.
- Sometimes you can be very irritating.
- I have been told that.
Stay here until I return, understand?
Absolutely no one is allowed in.
If you sleep, lock the windows.
The balcony's an easy climb.
To be on the safe side,
I will lock you in and keep the key.
But this is absurd.
If Spado is so dangerous,
how can you hope to win him over
to our plan?
Cesare and my father
were very close.
I doubt he'd go the way
of the others
had it not been
for such a demanding wife.
- As usual, the woman gets the blame.
- Not without good cause, I gather.
I'm told that Signora Spado
has considerable charms
and doesn't hesitate
to use them.
She hasn't your high principles.
Your self-denial is
really quite remarkable.
A woman's beauty
can be a lethal weapon.
- My God.
- My darling, what can it be?
Is it something you have eaten?
It's working.
The poison,
it's doing its work.
Poison?
What are you saying, Cesare?
He? Who are you talking of,
my darling?
The son of my old friend
and comrade.
I had arranged his death,
but he has got me first.
- Cesare, you're delirious.
- There is so much I must tell you.
Lie still.
Angelo has gone for a doctor.
You must hear it all.
This business I am in
with this man Dragomiloff,
it is called...
...the Assassination Bureau.
This Englishman lord
will pay 10,000 pounds
for this man Dragomiloff's death?
Pieces of silver.
Pieces of silver.
Many pieces.
Can you forgive me?
It was for you that I did
these dreadful things.
But you are so tender, so innocent.
What can you know
of assassination?
Life flows along
Just like a boat on a river
All that I want is to
Find a place
Safe in the harbor
Of love's embrace
Good evening.
- Forgive my entering unannounced.
- Who are you?
- A friend of your husband.
- My husband is away.
Strange.
He knew I was coming.
We had some business
to do together.
You... You haven't told me
your name.
My name is...
...lvan Dragomiloff.
Signor Dragomiloff.
I've heard him talk
I feel we are old friends.
Me too.
Cesare is a... A lucky man.
May I ask you
where he has gone?
I don't know.
He's just, well, floating around.
Since you are alone,
my presence might compromise you.
- No, no. We'll have a glass of wine.
- Do sit down.
- Thank you.
How much do you know
about his business?
Oh, nothing.
Well, then, you'll hardly be able
to make up for his absence, will you?
I wouldn't say that.
Will you think me
very wicked
that Cesare is away?
I would think you very flattering.
But that's not the reason
why you made away with him.
I what?!
I'm sorry.
I didn't mean to startle you.
How dare you accuse me
of such a thing!
Let's not have melodramatics.
I saw your handsome gondolier
dispose of the body.
Now please sit down.
Perhaps we can come
to some arrangement.
One moment.
Angelo, I must deal with him.
- You have a man in.
- Not for long.
- Long, short, what is the difference?
- Don't be a fool.
He knows. He saw you.
- Then I will fix him.
- I will.
My way.
Go and prepare the gondola,
then wait.
I will ring when it is done.
It will be quick this time.
You can't prove
your ridiculous accusation.
I hope I won't have to.
We have plenty of time
to talk it over.
Then let's have
another glass of wine.
Please, close the window.
Even if what you say was true,
wouldn't I have been merely doing
your job for you?
You said you knew nothing
of your husband's business.
Perhaps it is now my business.
I'm sure that you'll handle it
very capably.
Thank you.
Please draw the curtains.
It appears we understand
each other well.
- Sit down, please.
- Thank you.
I told you I could take
my husband's place.
What a delightful little table,
like a wheel of fortune.
Our fortunes, it seems,
are to be linked.
- I...
- I can't drink to the unknown.
- You're not adventurous.
I drink to it.
Bellissima.
Get rid of him.
What a pity.
He was so young.
All that I want is to
Find a place
Safe in the harbor
Of love's embrace
How sweet...
Fortunately, I kept wicket for Eton.
- Oh, don't worry, I've turned it off.
- It...
It was on the canopy.
Splendid. I knew these new
time bombs would come in useful.
Can't you talk anything but shop?
I've nearly been killed.
Oh, I'm sorry.
I am sorry.
This room was meant for me.
I should never have left you here.
What on earth are you doing
in that ridiculous costume?
I forgot.
I regret to have to inform you
that lvan Dragomiloff is now dead.
- What?
- Yes, events took an unexpected turn.
However, the first part of our plot
has been achieved.
- You mean they think you're dead?
- Precisely.
I shall now have to disappear
into hiding.
And the rest, Miss Winter,
is up to you.
Now, that's what I call
Miss Winter.
Miss Winter, surrender.
Why not?
Surrender is no defeat...
...for a woman.
My friend has not returned to the hotel.
He's been out all night.
I'm desperately afraid
he was run over.
- In Venice, signorina?
- Well, fallen in a canal, anything.
- Please, you must help me.
- Of course, signorina.
- The name of your friend?
- Dragomiloff.
Ivan Dragomiloff.
One moment, signorina.
Signorina, I am sorry.
- I fear I have very bad news.
- What?
- What is it?
- Your friend.
There must have been an accident.
He has been drowned.
His body has been taken
from the canal.
- I'll be all right.
- There were papers with his name.
But we would like you to identify
the body, if you are able.
- Very well.
- Please come this way, signorina.
It is...
...he.
This way, signorina.
It... It... It is him.
- Yes, we found papers on the body.
- Was Dragomiloff a good friend?
He was the best friend
my husband had.
We were very close.
We will save you
any more pain, signora.
I would be very glad if he could
be brought to my palazzo.
It is not fitting that such a man
