If I has confirmed

that thought...

1184

01:
14:30,400 -- 01:14:32,000

Oh, take a sweet...

1185

01:
14:33,000 -- 01:14:37,200

This doomed carpet!

Sorry, Hastings, you said...

1186

01:
14:37,300 -- 01:14:39,300

Sorry, dear.

Sorry.

1187

01:
14:41,500 -- 01:14:42,500

Don't worry.

1188

01:
14:42,500 -- 01:14:43,500

Here is her...

1189

01:
14:43,600 -- 01:14:44,600

What?

1190

01:
14:44,600 -- 01:14:45,600

My glasses.

1191

01:
14:45,600 -- 01:14:47,900

If broke you the glasses are

pagare them course.

1192

01:
14:48,600 -- 01:14:51,300

Please review them

to see if it looks good.

1193

01:
14:51,900 -- 01:14:52,900

they are good.

1194

01:
14:52,910 -- 01:14:54,310

It is wonderful, wonderful.

1195

01:
14:55,210 -- 01:14:57,610

That's all.

Thank you, dear.

1196

01:
14:58,210 -- 01:14:59,810

Find a taxi, please.

1197

01:
15:12,010 -- 01:15:13,010

Poirot..

1198

01:
15:14,710 -- 01:15:17,410

Your these plotting something.

You've never been so clumsy.

1199

01:
15:17,810 -- 01:15:18,810

How clumsy?

1200

01:
15:20,510 -- 01:15:22,210

These are the glasses

Ms. Ellis.

1201

01:
15:23,510 -- 01:15:24,610

But be devolviste.

1202

01:
15:24,610 -- 01:15:25,610

If I did it.

1203

01:
15:25,610 -- 01:15:29,310

I gave those who were inside the case

carlotta Adams makeup.

1204

01:
15:29,320 -- 01:15:31,920

and you were perfectly well.

1205

01:
15:32,620 -- 01:15:37,520

These should be the spare.

I am thus of clumsy.

1206

01:
15:40,320 -- 01:15:42,420

Hastings, I've been a fool, oh if...

1207

01:
15:45,920 -- 01:15:49,720

But get the time to gather

all those involved.

1208

01:
16:24,020 -- 01:16:25,020

Cut!

1209

01:
16:26,320 -- 01:16:29,820

Wonderful. Thanks to everyone.

One hour for lunch.

1210

01:
16:29,820 -- 01:16:30,820

I want another.

1211

01:
16:32,620 -- 01:16:33,420

As that want to another?

1212

01:
16:33,420 -- 01:16:34,520

I want another.

1213

01:
16:35,220 -- 01:16:36,220

But it was perfect.

1214

01:
16:36,220 -- 01:16:37,420

It wasn't perfect.

1215

01:
16:38,420 -- 01:16:42,620

Jake Slagel do...

much better.

1216

01:
16:45,620 -- 01:16:47,220

Okay, we'll talk

lunch.

1217

01:
16:47,230 -- 01:16:48,230

Thank you.

1218

01:
16:49,030 -- 01:16:50,530

Oh Poirot, which makes around here?

1219

01:
16:50,930 -- 01:16:54,030

This research by finish.

The backdrop is about to fall.

1220

01:
16:54,430 -- 01:16:57,430

I hope not later.

Give me this hour massages.

1221

01:
16:57,530 -- 01:17:01,130

If I will be the most brief possible as soon as you reach each other.

1222

01:
17:02,230 -- 01:17:04,030

The others?

What others?

1223

01:
17:13,830 -- 01:17:19,130

Japp, I must admit

that I made a mistake in this case.

1224

01:
17:19,330 -- 01:17:22,830

Sorry, for now the killer

This prisoner,

1225

01:
17:22,930 -- 01:17:24,030

Order to waste time?

1226

01:
17:24,030 -- 01:17:29,430

No, give me a time and shows it by I'm wrong.

1227

01:
17:30,640 -- 01:17:35,940

Since the beginning of the case

I had suspicions of Mr Martin.

1228

01:
17:39,140 -- 01:17:40,240

It amuses him?

1229

01:
17:41,940 -- 01:17:46,540

It is generous Mr. Martin share

joy, perhaps with lady Edgwere.

1230

01:
17:47,340 -- 01:17:50,440

Let me say that the day

for your holiday

1231

01:
17:51,240 -- 01:17:56,540

This romantic actor, I hope,

to try to convince me

1232

01:
17:56,540 -- 01:17:59,840

of that when I speak of "liquidate" lord Edgwere

1233

01:
17:59,840 -- 01:18:01,240

It was no joke.

1234

01:
18:01,640 -- 01:18:02,740

What?

1235

01:
18:03,340 -- 01:18:07,440

Look, just wanted to talk to him

a personal matter.

1236

01:
18:07,540 -- 01:18:10,940

If, and nothing more staff

incriminate to lady Edgwere

1237

01:
18:11,550 -- 01:18:16,250

But he didn't understand why

I had, so I suddenly remembered

1238

01:
18:16,750 -- 01:18:20,650

lord Edgwere told me

in a tone of some bitterness

1239

01:
18:21,250 -- 01:18:27,250

that his wife had left

to marry "true actor"

1240

01:
18:28,250 -- 01:18:33,250

But the temptation, of course, made this adorable creature

1241

01:
18:34,650 -- 01:18:35,950

Changed their minds!

1242

01:
18:36,450 -- 01:18:38,650

and instead of wanting to marry

with an actor

1243

01:
18:38,650 -- 01:18:40,750

decided to marry a Duke.

1244

01:
18:41,650 -- 01:18:45,250

Of course that the idol of

million felt angry, humiliated

1245

01:
18:45,950 -- 01:18:48,950

to see such collapse in their

seductive powers.

1246

01:
18:49,950 -- 01:18:54,350

So I plan his revenge: and the

revenge was murdering lord Edgwere

1247

01:
18:54,860 -- 01:18:59,060

making believe that lady Edgwere was the culprit.

1248

01:
18:59,960 -- 01:19:00,960

Wait a moment...

1249

01:
19:01,160 -- 01:19:03,260

They saw him coming to

the property,

1250

01:
19:04,460 -- 01:19:06,560

I had a reason to commit

the murder.

1251

01:
19:08,760 -- 01:19:11,360

and had the opportunity to do so.

1252

01:
19:12,460 -- 01:19:13,660

But I did not.

1253

01:
19:14,560 -- 01:19:17,860

Okay, I admit that I wanted to

avenge me for letting me, Jane

1254

01:
19:18,860 -- 01:19:21,460

but swear you that this

night talk

1255

01:
19:21,460 -- 01:19:24,460

had no idea that the old

I would be dead the following day.

1256

01:
19:24,660 -- 01:19:26,560

Only that I did not!

1257

01:
19:27,370 -- 01:19:29,270

Of course you

did it not.

1258

01:
19:30,770 -- 01:19:35,870

But you wanted to use Hercules

Poirot as uses for the doubles

1259

01:
19:35,870 -- 01:19:41,270

to make any dramatic, unusual, imaginative

1260

01:
19:41,370 -- 01:19:42,970

or dangerous work.

1261

01:
19:44,370 -- 01:19:46,770

Oh if you followed him

1262

01:
19:47,170 -- 01:19:49,970

and came close to crime, maximum crime: murder.

1263

01:
19:49,970 -- 01:19:53,870

You did everything he could

to excite my curiosity

1264

01:
19:55,870 -- 01:19:57,370

It was a dismal performance.

1265

01:
19:58,070 -- 01:19:59,070

What?

1266

01:
19:59,770 -- 01:20:01,070

"I appreciate it"

1267

01:
20:01,880 -- 01:20:06,780

Mr. Marsh, I have never seen

his films, or as called,

1268

01:
20:07,480 -- 01:20:10,780

But if that night together at the

River was an example

1269

01:
20:11,280 -- 01:20:13,980

I prefer making row

to go to the dentist.

1270

01:
20:13,980 -- 01:20:15,180

You hear, please wait...

1271

01:
20:15,180 -- 01:20:19,180

Oh, this offended actor ego.

1272

01:
20:20,280 -- 01:20:22,680

Because the ego of Hercule poirot

also offended.

1273

01:
20:23,980 -- 01:20:28,880

What you believed that with his performance?

could influence me my or Hastings?

1274

01:
20:30,880 -- 01:20:33,480

Of course not

He committed a murder.

1275

01:
20:35,080 -- 01:20:36,680

Poirot, I do not believe...

1276

01:
20:36,680 -- 01:20:40,180

Everything that the gentleman

says you write someone,

1277

01:
20:40,790 -- 01:20:43,090

wherever to be moved,

What makes another by;
