Speaker 1: And now here we are again on our usual visit
Speaker 1: to doctor Watson. He's waiting for us in his study,
Speaker 1: a cheerful blaze crackling on the heart. And better leave
Speaker 1: to seal, mister Manning. Hasn't the weather been atrocious today?
Speaker 1: I was beginning to wonder if you'd be able to
Speaker 1: get here tonight through all this fog. Yes, it certainly
Speaker 1: is what you Londoners call a regular pea soupers. Indeed,
Speaker 1: it reminds me of the adventure of the missing submarine Plans,
Speaker 1: the case it was solved in the underground, underground what
Speaker 1: you Americans call it a subway. Yes, but why has
Speaker 1: a solution in a subway got to do with the
Speaker 1: foggy nights?
Speaker 2: Ma'am?
Speaker 1: You see? The affairs started in weather exactly like this.
Speaker 1: It was a third week in November, the year eighteen
Speaker 1: hundred and ninety five to be exacted. On Monday, a
Speaker 1: dense yellow fog had settled down upon London. On Thursday
Speaker 1: it was still there, thickier and murkier than ever. At first,
Speaker 1: Homes had turned his nervous energy to cross indexing.
Speaker 2: His huge reference books.
Speaker 1: But when after pushing our breakfast chairs back for the
Speaker 1: for the fourth morning we saw the greasy browns were
Speaker 1: still drifting past the windows homes his patient's snap.
Speaker 2: Homes.
Speaker 1: If you must pace around in circles, I wish you
Speaker 1: change directions now and then you're.
Speaker 2: You make him a dizzy.
Speaker 1: It's inexcusable. What's an inexcusable? No initiative, no imagination, nothing
Speaker 1: ever gets done. If you're alluding to the inactivity in
Speaker 1: this last session of parliament, My dear, I'm not speaking
Speaker 1: of our lawmakers, Watson, but of our law breakers. A
Speaker 1: London criminal is certainly a dull fellow.
Speaker 2: It makes you, sir.
Speaker 1: We'll look out of the window. I deal wellther for
Speaker 1: committing a crime. The criminal advances, and his intended victim
Speaker 1: practically unseen, He comes his and disappears into tinnair. There
Speaker 1: have been numerous petty theft hardly pity fifth pickpockets, raggamuffins.
Speaker 1: What's the country coming to now? If I were a criminal, Watson.
Speaker 2: I for one would move to America.
Speaker 1: Hello, hello, missus. Hudson is not getting excited? What's up?
Speaker 1: I wonder, yes, very well, thank you?
Speaker 2: Oh what's it? Sir?
Speaker 3: Wait until I open it?
Speaker 1: Can't you? Ah, dear, me, what next? Most unusual, Watson?
Speaker 1: Most unusual?
Speaker 2: What's most unusual? Watson? What's it?
Speaker 1: Sir? Oh, it's from my brother Micraft. You remember him.
Speaker 1: He helped us solve the case of the Greek interpreter.
Speaker 1: He's coming here?
Speaker 2: Why not? What's so phenomenable? Why not?
Speaker 3: Why not?
Speaker 1: Indeed, it's as startling as it would be to me
Speaker 1: the tramcar coming down the country lane. Yes, yes, now
Speaker 1: I come to think of it. Microft is rather like
Speaker 1: a tramcar. His rails lead from his pell Mell Lodgings
Speaker 1: to the Diogenes Club in Whitehall. That's his circle. I
Speaker 1: wonder what up people can have derailed it?
Speaker 2: Doesn't the telegram explain?
Speaker 1: It says, uh must see you about cadaggon West coming
Speaker 1: at once.
Speaker 2: Dagon.
Speaker 1: Why that's the young Chapel's farm. Dead in the underground
Speaker 1: on Tuesday morning? And I remember reading about it in
Speaker 1: the papers.
Speaker 2: Oh, a man that parents have.
Speaker 1: Fallen out of would train and killed himself. He hadn't
Speaker 1: been robbed, and there was no reason to suspect violence.
Speaker 1: Quite an uninteresting case, if I remember. Yet, it's serious
Speaker 1: enough to cause Micraft to offer his habits.
Speaker 3: No, what'son this must be an extraordinary event.
Speaker 1: And you recall any other facts about the affair. Yes,
Speaker 1: I come to think that there was one unusual bit
Speaker 1: about came out of the inquest. They were unable to
Speaker 1: ascertain at what point he entered the train which his
Speaker 1: ticket was missing. Strange, but articles were found on the
Speaker 1: body two pounds fifteen.
Speaker 2: I believe it was a checkbook.
Speaker 1: And oh yes, yes there's two dress circle tickets for
Speaker 1: the Woolage theater, the dated for that evening. Theater tickets Eh.
Speaker 1: And it wasn't suicide. A man doesn't procure theater tickets
Speaker 1: for the evening on which he intends to end his life.
Speaker 1: Anything else?
Speaker 2: A small packet of technical papers.
Speaker 1: And technical papers? What kind of technical papers?
Speaker 2: Who knew? Any newspapers didn't.
Speaker 1: Say as serious as that? What did the young men do?
Speaker 1: Where was employed? It was a clerk at Woolad's, auss
Speaker 1: government employ There we have it, Watson, British government, wie
Speaker 1: Arsenal technical papers. That's why Mycroft is involved in this affair.
Speaker 1: I don't understand, No, I suppose not, Watson. Have I
Speaker 1: ever told you what Mycroft is?
Speaker 2: Your brother? Of course?
Speaker 1: No, no, no, Watson, do you have to be so dense.
Speaker 1: I mean, do you know what he does? I seem
Speaker 1: to have some vague recollection that you once told me
Speaker 1: that he'd held some small office under the British government.
Speaker 1: It would be more accurate to say, in a way
Speaker 1: that he is the British government. What his position is unique,
Speaker 1: He made it for himself. Is the tidiest and most
Speaker 1: orderly brain of any man alive, with a great capacity
Speaker 1: for storing facts and giving them the proper interpretation. The
Speaker 1: conclusions of every government department.
Speaker 3: Have passed on to him.
Speaker 1: He's the central exchange, the clearing house. Again and again
Speaker 1: his word has decided the national policy. He thinks of
Speaker 1: nothing else, Nothing else can lure him from his contemplations.
Speaker 2: It he's coming here.
Speaker 1: Yes, Jupiter is descending on us today.
Speaker 2: What on earth given he can happen?
Speaker 1: And Watson, that sounds suspiciously like a bad pun a
Speaker 1: is if I'm not mistaken to speak for himself. Come in,
Speaker 1: Come in, hello, my craft, what's up? What's up? You
Speaker 1: look posted a knowing business sherdrock Mester knowing you know
Speaker 1: how I dislike holding my head. It's extremely awkward for
Speaker 1: me to come away from the office, particularly with sim
Speaker 1: It's presence, states, dear me, to sit down. I can't
Speaker 1: sit down, you know what's and of course here I'm
Speaker 1: trying to find a share and I can trust the
Speaker 1: old man. I'm better take the sofa. If you certainly
Speaker 1: hadn't got any thinner, I've never seen the Prime Minister,
Speaker 1: Sir upset Admiralty. It's buzzing, I can upset behind. You
Speaker 1: know anything about the case?
Speaker 2: Now?
Speaker 1: What'sn't just been telling me what was in the newspapers?
Speaker 1: Just what were the technical papers found on the body.
Speaker 1: For the love of Heaven, not so loud, Those papers
Speaker 1: which sir wretched youth head in his pocket were none
Speaker 1: other than the Times of the Bruce Partington Submarine, the
Speaker 1: submarine which would completely revolutionize nabal warfare. The most important
Speaker 1: papers in our government archives. Under no circumstances going to
Speaker 1: be removed from the office. Even the Chief Constructor of
Speaker 1: the Navy was forced to go to Willis Off to
Speaker 1: consult them. And yet we find them in the pockets
Speaker 1: of a dead junior park in the heart of London. Yeah,
Speaker 1: from an official point of view, it's deplorable, my dear Microft,
Speaker 1: simply deplorable. Human love shut up. But this country won't
Speaker 1: be safe until they are recovered. I thought you said
Speaker 1: that they were found in the pocket of this chap
Speaker 1: cadug and West. Ten papers taken from Woolwich. Seven were
Speaker 1: found the pockets of Cadugan West. Three are still missing,
Speaker 1: the three essential ones. To recover those three papers is imperative.
Speaker 1: The peace of Europe depends on nice of the problem.
Speaker 1: It wasn't. Why did Cadugan West take the papers? How
Speaker 1: did he die? How did his body reach the place
Speaker 1: where it was found? And where are the missing papers?
Speaker 1: Find the answers to those questions, Shellarck, and you will
Speaker 1: have done your country an invaluable service. Why don't you
Speaker 1: sar it yourself? Microft I leave you good. Possibly, but
Speaker 1: it's a question of digging out details. Give me the
Speaker 1: details and I can give you the solution from an armchair.
Speaker 3: No, when it comes to running about and cross.
Speaker 1: Questioning railway guards and lying on one's face with a
Speaker 1: lens to one's eye, no, no, that's not my metair. Besides,
Speaker 1: your figure prevents your taking such an andignified position. Nay,
Speaker 1: very well? Be that part of it was Hey Watson, good,
Speaker 1: I'd cut a cab waiting outside to take the place
Speaker 1: where the body is found.
Speaker 3: I can give you the details on the way.
Speaker 1: Oh my God, who was the official guardian of these
Speaker 1: famous papers. No lesser personage than Sir James Walter, gentleman
Speaker 1: who has grown gray in the service.
Speaker 3: His patriotism is beyond the suspicion.
Speaker 1: And a bachelor, if I'm not mistaken, lives with his brother. Yes,
Speaker 1: here's the house of Admiral Sinclair mark the square. During
Speaker 1: the whole of the evening when this accident occured, the
Speaker 1: Admiral vouches for him. He's one of the two who
Speaker 1: have the only keys to save his keep. Is with
Speaker 1: him all evening right, his key the key to the building.
Speaker 3: The keys are room.
Speaker 1: Who was the man with the other key? The senior Clark,
Speaker 1: mister Sidney Johnson, man of forty married silent morose An
Speaker 1: excellent this record and the alibi, He too had his
Speaker 1: key with him, seems to spend the evening playing a
Speaker 1: game of drafts to the green grocer around the corner
Speaker 1: from his lodgings. Of course, he has only the word
Speaker 1: of this green grocer to back him. All come, come,
Speaker 1: my dear micraft. No class discriminations please. The word of
Speaker 1: a green grocer is often just as good as that
Speaker 1: of an admiral. And what about kurdugg and West?
Speaker 3: He had a good reputation.
Speaker 1: He bit hot headed, with straightens least ever and posso.
Speaker 1: He was next to city Johnson to the office. His
Speaker 1: duties brought him in the daily personal contact with the plans.
Speaker 1: No one else ever had the handling of them.
Speaker 2: Oh, it's perfectly clear.
Speaker 1: He must have taken not so fast, but not so fast.
Speaker 3: Who locked them up that night, mister Sidney Johnson?
Speaker 1: They were a value commercially, I mean, oh yes, there's
Speaker 1: no doubt that West could have got several thousands for
Speaker 1: them very easily. And yet only a small amount of
Speaker 1: money was found on the body.
Speaker 2: Perhaps the buyer.
Speaker 1: Took it back off feed murdered West. What puzzles me
Speaker 1: is how did West obtain possession of those papers. To
Speaker 1: do so, he must have had a false key, several
Speaker 1: false keys, shirlark. He had opened the building and the
Speaker 1: room as well. Oh well, well, well, several false keys.
Speaker 1: Then let me see, let me see. I suppose Wes
Speaker 1: did take the papers and went into town and on
Speaker 1: the way back to wood Edge, where he is hoping
Speaker 1: to replace the papers he's killed and thrown from the train.
Speaker 3: But the spot where the body was.
Speaker 1: Found is considerably past the station for London Bridge, which
Speaker 1: is the rip to willw It's interesting also, if young
Speaker 1: West did make an appointment for some foreign agent to
Speaker 1: sell the papers that night, why didn't he keep the
Speaker 1: evening clear? Why buy two Tiller tickets exactly? Furthermore, he
Speaker 1: actually escorted his fiance halfway there before.
Speaker 2: He disappeared blind. That's what it looks like to me.
Speaker 1: Why did he take the papers at all? Why not
Speaker 1: copy them out in the office and sell the copies?
Speaker 1: He certainly had plenty of opportunities to do so. And
Speaker 1: why the absence of his underground ticket? And that's the
Speaker 1: ticket will have shown us which station was near the
Speaker 1: agent's house.
Speaker 2: So the murderer destroyed it.
Speaker 1: Good Watson, very good? Yet I wonder, well, here's the
Speaker 1: underground station. The railway authorities have sent a man around
Speaker 1: to show the exact place where the body was found.
Speaker 1: You won't change your mind and come with us.
Speaker 3: We're crawling around that black hole on my hands and knees.
Speaker 3: Not very likely. Well, I shall expect to report on
Speaker 3: your refics.
Speaker 1: I never expect too much microft, never expect too much.
Speaker 1: Before we follow Holmes and Watson into the mazes of
Speaker 1: the London subway system. I have a word of advice.
Speaker 1: Every year colds cause a lot of sickness every year.
Speaker 1: They cause a lot of expense and time lost from work.
Speaker 1: Always regard a cold seriously, Always treat it earnestly. At
Speaker 1: the first sign of a cold, take Groves bromo quinine tablets.
Speaker 1: Romo Quinine tablets are famous relief for the distress of
Speaker 1: a cold. Their efficacy has been fully established. Romo Quinine
Speaker 1: tablets go right to work on a cold symptom. They
Speaker 1: don't waste any time, they don't pull any punches. They
Speaker 1: quickly relieve the misery.
Speaker 3: Of a cold.
Speaker 1: They help reduce the fever of a cold. Thousands of
Speaker 1: people keep promo quinine tablets handy all winter. Thousands of
Speaker 1: people depend on them as their relief for colds. No
Speaker 1: other preparation enjoys greater confidence than bromo quinine tablets. Follow
Speaker 1: the example of Missions, and at the first sign of
Speaker 1: a cold, take Groves bromo quinine tablets. Get them at
Speaker 1: any drug store a few cents a box. Ask specifically
Speaker 1: for Groves g R O v E S Bromo d
Speaker 1: r O m o quinine q u I M I
Speaker 1: n E Groves Bromo quinine tablets. This is why I said,
Speaker 1: step right along the tracks if it isn't safe, supposing
Speaker 1: the trains should come shooting around that curve. Oh that's all, Roger,
Speaker 1: there won't be another for five minutes. Anyway, Here we
Speaker 1: are say, this is where they found the body, right here,
Speaker 1: alongside the rails, lying on its face. It was spooky
Speaker 1: playse their homes. I could catacombs only without the skeletons.
Speaker 1: Anything in his hands when they found him luser, but
Speaker 1: they clinched what spread out as if he were protecting him. Now,
Speaker 1: so there was what you might call relax by the
Speaker 1: times it all has happened.
Speaker 3: Well.
Speaker 1: So the trainee was oisted out of as near as
Speaker 1: we can figure, passed along a yet about midnight on Mandals.
Speaker 1: All the carriages have been examined for signs of violence.
Speaker 1: I suppose it didn't find that, not even the missing ticket.
Speaker 1: There was a passenger to all Gate on the ordinary
Speaker 1: train about eleven forty. It was he said he heard
Speaker 1: heavy dad bark, something strike in the line just before
Speaker 1: the train reached this station. But it was so foggy,
Speaker 1: he said he was best if he could see what
Speaker 1: it was. Homes, what's the matter? Were you steering at
Speaker 1: the curb? Watson? Whatever of the rails?
Speaker 2: What do you what do you mean?
Speaker 1: I suppose that not many curves as abrupt as this
Speaker 1: and now so I can't.
Speaker 2: Say, as there is, what have curves got to do
Speaker 2: in this?
Speaker 1: An indication? What's a million indication? Hmm? Unique, perfectly unique
Speaker 1: and yep, why not. I don't see any indications of
Speaker 1: bleeding on the line now, so there wasn't any to
Speaker 1: speak of us. But I understand there was a considerable wound.
Speaker 1: The bone was crashed right and as Holmes, that is
Speaker 1: the train it's coming as well. Runds be also were up.
Speaker 1: He did a placement to try and switches on what
Speaker 1: to run. It's just a round the curve. Well we
Speaker 1: don't have a pasage, which yes, we run faster, faster.
Speaker 3: There's the switch up.
Speaker 1: Head, come on, he comes, Tay. Now, we'll make it.
Speaker 1: We'll make it a justin watch them from a love
Speaker 1: of heaven.
Speaker 3: You're on the wrong track.
Speaker 1: Well that was an iriscape home I must say, my
Speaker 1: knees is so shaking. Look at the shoulder my coat
Speaker 1: where you pulled me like a think for you that
Speaker 1: I did.
Speaker 2: Where are we off to now? And then this fog?
Speaker 1: Yes, it's a nice afternoon. Supposed to pay a few calls,
Speaker 1: I think, Sir James Water claims our first attention. After
Speaker 1: that we might drop in on miss Westbridge whisper. She
Speaker 1: is a dug in West's fiance and the last person
Speaker 1: to see him alive.
Speaker 2: Ohs, we seem to be going around in circles.
Speaker 1: We've accomplished absolutely nothing so far except to get to her,
Speaker 1: to get ourselves nearly a knowledge in the underground after
Speaker 1: all us.
Speaker 2: Perfectly of this.
Speaker 1: The young man had a quarrel with someone, or probably
Speaker 1: to the agent to whom he sell the papers, and
Speaker 1: got himself.
Speaker 2: Thrown out of the rail with the carriage for his paying.
Speaker 1: I disagree with you, Myia, Watson. His body fell from
Speaker 1: the roof of the carriage where it had been placed.
Speaker 1: Kadugan West met his death elsewhere the.
Speaker 2: Roof of the train.
Speaker 1: Consider the facts, Watson, Hey, the curve in the tracks.
Speaker 1: The body is found at the spot where the train
Speaker 1: pitches and sways as it comes around the points be
Speaker 1: there's no ticket. See there were no signs of bleeding
Speaker 1: on the line because the body had bled elsewhere. Everything
Speaker 1: FETs together. But where was the body placed on the train?
Speaker 1: I think I can make a fair guess of bet,
Speaker 1: my dear Watson, Ah, here we are. This is the
Speaker 1: famous official villa of Sir James Water and that, if
Speaker 1: I'm not mistaken. Is his brother Colonel Valentine just coming
Speaker 1: out of her house?
Speaker 2: What's favailable? The money? He looks possibly hanted?
Speaker 1: Pardon me, Colonel Valentine, But can you tell me if
Speaker 1: if Sir James is at home? Sir James, Sir James
Speaker 1: is dead, good, heavens dead. He died this morning. It's terrible,
Speaker 1: terrible How did he die? It's this horrible scandal. My
Speaker 1: brother so I was very sensitive of his honor. He
Speaker 1: couldn't survive the disgrace to his department. It broke his heart.
Speaker 1: Pardon me, jefuarf I must go. It broke his heart,
Speaker 1: pauling development he Holmes. I wondered if his death was
Speaker 1: natural or if the poor fellow killed himself. Yes, will
Speaker 1: you tell miss Westbreath, Mister Shehrlock Holmes would like to
Speaker 1: see her.
Speaker 4: Oh, please come in, gentlemen. I'm Violet rest Blimester Holmes.
Speaker 4: I've been expecting you ever since I heard you had
Speaker 4: taken the case.
Speaker 1: Please be seated.
Speaker 4: Thank you, Oh, mister Holmes. We we must save his
Speaker 4: good name. He couldn't have done it, dug him was
Speaker 4: the most chimerrous, patriotic gentleman honor. He couldn't have done it.
Speaker 4: He would have cut his right hand off rather than celestate.
Speaker 1: Secrets of the fact, my Dearess Westbury.
Speaker 4: I admit I can't explain them. Was he in need
Speaker 4: of money, No, mister Holmes, his need was simple, and
Speaker 4: his seal were very good. He'd saved several hundred pounds.
Speaker 4: We were to be married at the New Year, I see.
Speaker 1: Had you noticed any signs of mental excitement? W well,
Speaker 1: that is well, comes Westbury. B frank with us.
Speaker 4: Yes, mister Holmes, that night I had a feeling that
Speaker 4: there was something on his mind.
Speaker 1: Tell us about it, will you.
Speaker 4: We were on the way to the theater. It was
Speaker 4: a foggy night, you remember, we were walking slowly. Our
Speaker 4: way took us close to his office. Cadogan seems footful
Speaker 4: and worried, no wits to Mary. Haven't sat a word
Speaker 4: for the last five minutes. Have I said it?
Speaker 1: Done?
Speaker 4: Something?
Speaker 1: Of course, not silly. It's just that I've got something
Speaker 1: on my mind.
Speaker 4: Why not tell me about it? Perhaps I can help.
Speaker 1: It's no use, fy, it's too serious for me to
Speaker 1: talk about even the yle you.
Speaker 4: Know sometimes carry I feel just the least a little
Speaker 4: bit jealous of that old job of yours when you're
Speaker 4: coop choking had building all day often.
Speaker 1: Now you're not going to be jealous of a building, well.
Speaker 4: Not really, but it is funny to think of a
Speaker 4: husband having secrets you can't tell his wife.
Speaker 1: Mighty important secrets. I can promise you there's one in
Speaker 1: particular that any foreign spy would pay good money to
Speaker 1: get hold of. Thrilling.
Speaker 3: I don't know.
Speaker 1: They're awfully slack about some things over there in that
Speaker 1: building ballot what's too slack? It would be too confouned
Speaker 1: and easy for a trader to get his hands on
Speaker 1: those plans?
Speaker 2: What planned?
Speaker 1: Never mind, darling, I guess I'm getting a bit melodramatic,
Speaker 1: But there's something been worrying me. Hello, what's that? What's what?
Speaker 1: Over there? That shadow moving along the side of the building.
Speaker 1: It's a man, so that's it. I always suspect. What's
Speaker 1: the matter? Are you're so excited? What's wrong to stay here? Ballet?
Speaker 1: That's something I have to find out. Stay here.
Speaker 4: I waited and waited, but he never returned, almost to homes.
Speaker 4: If you could only save his honor, it meant so
Speaker 4: much to him.
Speaker 1: You shall do our best, Miss Westbury. This then, this
Speaker 1: shadow of this man moving along the building. Did you
Speaker 1: see it too?
Speaker 4: I think I did, mister Holmes, But the night was
Speaker 4: so fergly. I can't be sure, but there must have
Speaker 4: been a man, another man is it couldn't have been
Speaker 4: codogn Sure a character goes for.
Speaker 1: Something, let us hope. So come along, Watson, we must
Speaker 1: return home. I'm expecting an answer to some telegrams I
Speaker 1: sent Micraft earlier. This afternoon. We've done enough for one day.
Speaker 2: Homes will have been all day. We've left. This morning,
Speaker 2: fire was up.
Speaker 1: Now you've come home with a towerler eye, as suit tornament,
Speaker 1: as revelous as a wolf. Ha. Yes, I've had a
Speaker 1: bit of exercise, my dear Watson. Person me the tongue,
Speaker 1: will you it would have done? You got to go along?
Speaker 2: Yes, what were you.
Speaker 1: Doing investigating the premises inhabited my foreign spies known to
Speaker 1: have been in London on last Monday. Micraft sent me
Speaker 1: a list of them to competter doing too. Climbing walls,
Speaker 1: breaking into cellars, prowling around roof tops. I discovered there
Speaker 1: was only one residence which had the proper facilities for
Speaker 1: disposing of West's body after the murder. Whose residence it
Speaker 1: belongs to Hugo Obestein's. The address is thirteen Corky Gardens. Kinnington,
Speaker 1: a gentleman himself has departed for Europe, gone has he?
Speaker 2: He took plans with him and it's too.
Speaker 1: Late, not necessarily Watson, what do we do now? We
Speaker 1: are going to keep a rendezvous with a gentleman who's
Speaker 1: tole and sold those plans. The essignation will take place
Speaker 1: at mister Oberstein's house this evening at nine.
Speaker 2: What the deuce you talking about?
Speaker 1: These new staper slippings. I found them in the draw
Speaker 1: off Hugo Oberstein's death. Greet them Daily Telegraph Agony column.
Speaker 1: The first one says too complex a description must have
Speaker 1: full report terms. Agreed to payable when goods delivered, signed
Speaker 1: Piero Piero.

Speaker 1: certain this evening. I've invited the gentleman who sold the
Speaker 1: papers to meet us. How I don't understand said it
Speaker 1: the advertisement in today's early telegraph tonight, same on the
Speaker 1: same place. Two taps vitally important your own safety at steak,
Speaker 1: signed Pierro as usual by Judge. If he answers that week,
Speaker 1: we've got him, unless we're too late. Come on, Watson,
Speaker 1: there's no time to lose. You can take this passy
Speaker 1: package for a change, Hola, I've mean carrying it around
Speaker 1: all day?
Speaker 2: What'sn't it?
Speaker 3: Oh?
Speaker 1: Just a jemmy, a dark land and a chisel and
Speaker 1: a revolver. Nice equipment for a respectable citizen to be
Speaker 1: carry about the streets of London. I must say, you know, Watson,
Speaker 1: there are times when I suspect we aren't quite respectable.
Speaker 1: Here we are. This is coffee of gardens.
Speaker 2: Kevin is so fuggy. I shouldn't like to be caught
Speaker 2: the active house breaking.
Speaker 1: Yeah, oh, this war Watson. There's a window we can
Speaker 1: usually play open in the back scale it wor come on,

Speaker 1: wasn't it, Because here the body was placed on the
Speaker 1: roof of the train. Now this look on this window
