A good social mix

It is a true work of art.

715

44:42,460 -- 00:44:44,560

And art is my passion.

716

Oh, good shot.

717

718

00:
45:02,760 -- 00:45:05,460

Even the transvestite

Greco-Roman de all

719

00:
45:06,660 -- 00:45:08,560

It has a splendid elegance.

720

00:
45:08,760 -- 00:45:09,760

Not this agreement?

721

00:
45:10,060 -- 00:45:11,060

If...

What I see in the next ring.

725

00:
45:35,770 -- 00:45:37,570

What is your impression?

of lady Edgwere?

726

00:
45:37,770 -- 00:45:39,870

Charming, very clever.

727

00:
45:40,370 -- 00:45:43,470

More than what you expected a

American actress.

728

00:
45:44,370 -- 00:45:46,870

Taught me a few things

about Greek art.

729

00:
45:47,570 -- 00:45:48,670

About Greek art?

730

00:
45:50,170 -- 00:45:53,770

Well, here I must concentrate.

731

00:
45:57,270 -- 00:45:58,270

Curse.

732

00:
46:15,470 -- 00:46:16,970

And one more, I think.

733

00:
46:20,570 -- 00:46:21,570

Thanks a lot.

734

00:
46:22,270 -- 00:46:23,470

Perhaps...

735

00:
46:26,580 -- 00:46:28,580

Could someone call us a taxi?

736

00:
46:29,080 -- 00:46:33,280

-I'd love to take it.

-For really? Do you have car?

737

00:
46:33,280 -- 00:46:35,480

If Mr. I have here and

There is enough space.

738

00:
46:35,480 -- 00:46:36,880

I don't even drive.

739

00:
46:39,480 -- 00:46:40,580

You are the young generation.

740

00:
46:40,580 -- 00:46:41,780

His life is in your hands.

741

00:
46:45,580 -- 00:46:47,680

Mr. Hastings, I saw in Ivanov?

in the lyric?

742

00:
46:47,980 -- 00:46:51,080

If I...? What?

No, sorry, I am afraid that no.

743

00:
46:51,680 -- 00:46:52,780

Little hard.

744

00:
46:52,880 -- 00:46:54,080

There will be many of these.

745

00:
46:55,790 -- 00:46:56,890

Do you where I can leave it, Mr. Poirot?

746

00:
46:57,390 -- 00:46:58,590

At Scotland Yard.

747

00:
46:58,590 -- 00:46:59,590

Very well.

748

00:
47:00,790 -- 00:47:02,790

I met Jane Wilkinson

Here the other day.

749

00:
47:03,190 -- 00:47:04,990

Oh, did you to the famous festival?

750

00:
47:04,990 -- 00:47:09,390

If. quite exciting.

Jane has a... presence.

751

00:
47:09,590 -- 00:47:10,590

If.

752

00:
47:11,190 -- 00:47:14,190

Something that is not learned.

Say I have also.

753

00:
47:14,490 -- 00:47:16,190

-For really?

-I have some indefinable..

754

00:
47:17,990 -- 00:47:18,990

..presence.

755

00:
47:19,990 -- 00:47:21,690

Indefinable..If.

756

00:
47:28,800 -- 00:47:30,000

Turn on the engine.

757

00:
47:31,700 -- 00:47:32,800

Is it good driver?

758

00:
47:33,500 -- 00:47:34,500

Always.

759

00:
48:07,000 -- 00:48:08,500

-Arrive.

-Many thanks.

760

00:
48:11,200 -- 00:48:13,200

Let's go.

-Sorry. It is ok.

761

00:
48:18,100 -- 00:48:19,900

Let me tell you a strange thing,

Mr. Poirot.

762

00:
48:19,900 -- 00:48:20,900

If?

763

00:
48:21,500 -- 00:48:23,900

We were thirteen at dinner that night

764

00:
48:24,400 -- 00:48:26,200

Someone not came in the last moment.

765

00:
48:26,300 -- 00:48:30,900

It was in the library that I remembered from superstition of bad luck.

766

00:
48:30,910 -- 00:48:33,110

for the first lifted

a panel of thirteen.

767

00:
48:33,710 -- 00:48:35,410

And who will get up first?

768

00:
48:36,310 -- 00:48:37,310

I...

769

00:
48:38,410 -- 00:48:39,510

Be careful with your hand.

770

00:
48:44,410 -- 00:48:46,710

If you had known there would be

accepted that we would bring.

771

00:
48:53,010 -- 00:48:55,110

Curse, disappeared the

Butler Edgwere

772

00:
48:56,110 -- 00:49:00,110

with,3000 pounds in francs

French which the lord had to go to Paris.

773

00:
49:00,610 -- 00:49:01,710

What do you want to, Poirot?

774

00:
49:01,910 -- 00:49:04,410

My sole ambition is to be useful to

Scotland Yard

775

00:
49:05,410 -- 00:49:07,910

that must have completed their investigation.

776

00:
49:07,920 -- 00:49:12,420

the death of... Carlotta Adams

American actress.

777

00:
49:12,720 -- 00:49:17,520

Poirot, get you want?,

I have larger fish fry.

778

00:
49:17,820 -- 00:49:19,920

In a soup, fish guys

779

00:
49:19,920 -- 00:49:21,820

are often more tasty

that large.

780

00:
49:22,920 -- 00:49:24,020

Of which you speak?

781

00:
49:24,120 -- 00:49:27,120

But if you add a poison,

the soup is contaminated

782

00:
49:27,620 -- 00:49:30,220

and then the size

the fish is immaterial.

783

00:
49:30,720 -- 00:49:32,120

You have to do the fish?

784

00:
49:32,120 -- 00:49:34,120

It is your metaphor.

I started not...

785

00:
49:35,020 -- 00:49:37,920

Enough fish, then.

Limit you to listen to me.

786

00:
49:38,830 -- 00:49:41,830

Wise that the Repertoire of?

Carlotta Adams

787

00:
49:42,130 -- 00:49:45,730

included an imitation

how admirable Jane Wilkinson?

788

00:
49:45,830 -- 00:49:48,830

-No.

-Yes, and the night of the murder,

789

00:
49:49,030 -- 00:49:52,330

Carlotta Adams wore black

with a collar of pearls,

790

00:
49:52,730 -- 00:49:56,630

precisely what Secretary

of honourable, the Ms. Carroll,

791

00:
49:56,630 -- 00:50:00,430

says dressed lady edgwere

When I visit Honourable.

792

00:
50:02,430 -- 00:50:03,830

God mi, you're right.

793

00:
50:04,130 -- 00:50:05,130

And that is not all.

794

00:
50:05,430 -- 00:50:09,630

Carlotta Adams had a case

makeup that contained a wig

795

00:
50:10,530 -- 00:50:14,830

to imitated exactly

Jane Wilkinson hairstyle.

796

00:
50:15,440 -- 00:50:19,940

Poirot, volviste what to do.

Mandare it looking for immediately.

797

00:
50:20,340 -- 00:50:22,840

Already it sought, my friend.

This dead.

798

00:
50:23,840 -- 00:50:26,340

Yes, if it is true.

799

00:
50:28,940 -- 00:50:30,040

What was the cause of death?

800

00:
50:30,940 -- 00:50:34,540

Your report will no doubt say

an overdose of veronal.

801

00:
50:35,640 -- 00:50:37,640

It is... well clear.

802

00:
50:39,040 -- 00:50:42,040

Look, she goes where Edgwere,

disguised as Jane Wilkinson does right?...

803

00:
50:42,040 -- 00:50:43,540

Yes, why?
