Indeed, it 47 00:03:01.520 --> 00:03:03.560 is really almost impossible for me to embark upon a 48 00:03:03.599 --> 00:03:05.639 case withoutsm you can rely upon. 49 00:03:05.560 --> 00:03:08.560 His discretion implicitly to the very utmost jalable. 50 00:03:08.639 --> 00:03:13.039 I promised it very well.

I'd taken it across each evening 58 00:03:31.560 --> 00:03:34.000 to my house in Whitehall. Tell I kept it in 59 00:03:34.080 --> 00:03:37.319 a lofty best box in my bedroom. It was there 60 00:03:37.479 --> 00:03:40.840 last night. You are certain of that, Quite certain. I 61 00:03:40.960 --> 00:03:42.800 opened the box while I was dressing for dinner and 62 00:03:42.919 --> 00:03:47.759 saw it there. This morning it was gone, the box itself, no, 63 00:03:48.360 --> 00:03:51.840 only the letter.

What time do you dine, the 67 00:04:00.240 --> 00:04:03.039 hope half past seven? And how long was it before 68 00:04:03.080 --> 00:04:05.520 you went to bed? My wife had gone to the theater. 69 00:04:06.039 --> 00:04:07.039 I waited up for her. 70 00:04:07.520 --> 00:04:10.319 It was half past eleven before we retired to our room. 71 00:04:10.879 --> 00:04:13.560 Then for four hours the box had lain unguarded. 72 00:04:14.039 --> 00:04:16.879 No one is ever permitted to enter that room except 73 00:04:16.920 --> 00:04:20.560 two trusted servants who are beyond suspicion. Who else knew 74 00:04:20.600 --> 00:04:23.120 of the existence of that letter? No one in the heart, 75 00:04:23.240 --> 00:04:26.399 not your why knows. I said nothing to her until 76 00:04:26.399 --> 00:04:28.759 I missed the paper this morning.

I 82 00:04:40.519 --> 00:04:43.519 believe no one saved the man who wrote it, And 83 00:04:43.639 --> 00:04:46.839 may I ask his name, mister Holmes. 84 00:04:48.120 --> 00:04:51.160 The envelope is a long, thin one of a pale 85 00:04:51.199 --> 00:04:51.879 blue color. 86 00:04:53.000 --> 00:04:54.839 That is all I think the two hate to know. 87 00:04:56.160 --> 00:04:59.040 Well, I'm quite aware that you are two of the 88 00:04:59.079 --> 00:05:01.240 busiest men in the Come try and in my own 89 00:05:01.360 --> 00:05:03.240 small way, I have a good many calls upon my 90 00:05:03.439 --> 00:05:06.360 time by regret exceedingly that I cannot have seen this matter? 91 00:05:06.399 --> 00:05:09.759 Watson?

Praise it down again, Watson Ah. 97 00:05:26.839 --> 00:05:30.519 Now, then, gentlemen, the letter is from a certain foreign 98 00:05:30.600 --> 00:05:34.800 potentate who has been raffled by some recent colonial developments 99 00:05:34.839 --> 00:05:38.040 in this subject. It was written hurriedly and in anger 100 00:05:38.800 --> 00:05:42.720 on his own responsibility entirely, and his ministers know nothing 101 00:05:42.759 --> 00:05:46.439 about it. You mean his highness to come, Prince of Minister, 102 00:05:48.399 --> 00:05:50.279 Very well, sir, let me write it down on this 103 00:05:50.319 --> 00:05:51.000 sip of paper. 104 00:05:52.279 --> 00:05:58.519 Am I correct, my lord?

There's only one course 117 00:06:29.920 --> 00:06:33.560 open to you. What is it?

Good day, Genson, What do you 120 00:06:52.279 --> 00:06:55.800 intend to do? There are several foreign agents, big names 121 00:06:55.839 --> 00:06:58.920 among the international spy ring. If one of them should 122 00:06:58.920 --> 00:07:03.120 be missing, actually, if he disappeared since last night, we 123 00:07:03.199 --> 00:07:05.079 shall then have some indication of where the letter may 124 00:07:05.120 --> 00:07:05.480 have gone. 125 00:07:05.600 --> 00:07:05.800 Ah. 126 00:07:06.600 --> 00:07:09.439 Yes, But if none of them is missing, jem, we 127 00:07:09.480 --> 00:07:11.759 can take it. As the letter hasn't left the country yet. 128 00:07:12.399 --> 00:07:15.879 That would be something of a miracle. And in that case, 129 00:07:16.000 --> 00:07:19.439 well I might be able to get it back. After all, 130 00:07:19.560 --> 00:07:22.439 I have the whole British treasury behind me. If it's 131 00:07:22.519 --> 00:07:24.759 on the market, I'll buy it back, even if it 132 00:07:24.839 --> 00:07:26.720 means another penny on the income jet huh. 133 00:07:27.160 --> 00:07:29.240 But who who are the likely agents? 134 00:07:29.800 --> 00:07:35.920 Only three that are big enough Oberstein, La Rotia and 135 00:07:36.920 --> 00:07:38.079 Eduardo Lucas. 136 00:07:38.560 --> 00:07:44.839 M oh oh, dear fellow, Look, so why what a sonata? 137 00:07:46.199 --> 00:07:48.519 Heaven knows you've astonished me more. 138 00:07:48.399 --> 00:07:53.279 Than once with some spectacular announcement.

You don't mean it. I 145 00:08:08.439 --> 00:08:10.959 was reading about it before our visited the ride. 146 00:08:11.879 --> 00:08:13.639 It was a Lucas, the well. 147 00:08:13.480 --> 00:08:18.120 Known society planner and distinguished amateur tenor, murdered. 148 00:08:17.800 --> 00:08:20.160 Most bootle by a knife in the heart. 149 00:08:20.319 --> 00:08:25.720 What, sir, an amazing coincidence, home coincidence, man, Great heavens, 150 00:08:25.759 --> 00:08:26.759 you can't really mean it. 151 00:08:27.240 --> 00:08:31.600 And a moment later, our modest apartment, already so distinguished 152 00:08:31.600 --> 00:08:34.519 that morning, was further honored by the entrance of. 153 00:08:34.559 --> 00:08:36.519 The loveliest woman in London. 154 00:08:36.679 --> 00:08:37.799 Nay in the world. 155 00:08:39.120 --> 00:08:41.759 I'd often heard of the beauty of the youngest daughter 156 00:08:41.879 --> 00:08:46.039 of the baucul Dowminster, but no description, no contemptation of 157 00:08:46.120 --> 00:08:50.440 a lifeless photograph, had prepared me for the subtle, delicate. 158 00:08:50.120 --> 00:08:54.200 Charm and the beautiful modeling of that exquisite good.
