1
00:00:05.839 --> 00:00:08.720
<v Speaker 1>Well, Dr Watson, I'm curious to know what you mean

2
00:00:08.880 --> 00:00:10.119
<v Speaker 1>by the logic of.

3
00:00:10.160 --> 00:00:14.519
<v Speaker 2>Murder, mister Harris. This adventure began one autumn evening in

4
00:00:14.560 --> 00:00:17.679
<v Speaker 2>eighteen ninety six, when Holmes and I were in our

5
00:00:17.800 --> 00:00:20.879
<v Speaker 2>flat at two twenty one B Baker Street. We'd had

6
00:00:20.920 --> 00:00:25.359
<v Speaker 2>an unexpected visitor. He was a lean, pale chap abnormally

7
00:00:25.440 --> 00:00:30.079
<v Speaker 2>tall with penetrating eyes. As he explained his grotesque mission,

8
00:00:30.719 --> 00:00:36.719
<v Speaker 2>my amazement grew each moment. My name is Forest, mister Holmes,

9
00:00:37.079 --> 00:00:38.560
<v Speaker 2>Dr Nelson Forest.

10
00:00:38.359 --> 00:00:41.479
<v Speaker 3>Most distinguished name, Sir, one with which I'm quite familiar.

11
00:00:42.200 --> 00:00:44.359
<v Speaker 3>May I present my friend in Colleen, doctor Watson.

12
00:00:44.359 --> 00:00:46.000
<v Speaker 4>How you do, doctor Watson?

13
00:00:46.039 --> 00:00:48.119
<v Speaker 2>Don't you occupy a chair of medsone and Oxford?

14
00:00:48.200 --> 00:00:48.359
<v Speaker 1>Sir?

15
00:00:48.439 --> 00:00:50.759
<v Speaker 2>Indeed I do, but my acific duties prevent my being

16
00:00:50.840 --> 00:00:54.159
<v Speaker 2>very active at the university. I'm also chief toxicologist at

17
00:00:54.200 --> 00:00:57.200
<v Speaker 2>the Colonists Office bars Hill. Addcent to Oxford.

18
00:00:57.000 --> 00:00:58.920
<v Speaker 4>And the purpose of your visit, Doctor Paris.

19
00:00:59.079 --> 00:01:01.960
<v Speaker 2>I performed the duty of a coroner for decades, mister Holmes.

20
00:01:02.159 --> 00:01:05.280
<v Speaker 2>I performed more than six thousand autopsies and something of

21
00:01:05.319 --> 00:01:06.959
<v Speaker 2>an expert on causes of death.

22
00:01:07.359 --> 00:01:09.760
<v Speaker 4>Intriguing background pray continue.

23
00:01:09.879 --> 00:01:12.560
<v Speaker 2>I have two associates, Chief Justice Wickham, yes.

24
00:01:12.400 --> 00:01:14.200
<v Speaker 4>I know him well, professor of jurish.

25
00:01:13.840 --> 00:01:17.599
<v Speaker 2>And Professor Edward Roberts ah, yes, one of the world's

26
00:01:17.599 --> 00:01:20.840
<v Speaker 2>formal experts on logic. We were enjoying a pleasant afternoon

27
00:01:20.879 --> 00:01:23.359
<v Speaker 2>tea some weeks ago, the three of us. The conversation

28
00:01:23.560 --> 00:01:26.359
<v Speaker 2>turned to the ancient problem of the perfect murder.

29
00:01:26.439 --> 00:01:28.799
<v Speaker 4>I've spent many a long evening ruminating over that problem.

30
00:01:28.799 --> 00:01:32.719
<v Speaker 2>The conversation became most spirited. Each of us made contributions. Wickham,

31
00:01:32.719 --> 00:01:35.000
<v Speaker 2>a veritable genius on evasions of the law, made a

32
00:01:35.000 --> 00:01:38.560
<v Speaker 2>few superb suggestions I contributed to on the basis of

33
00:01:38.599 --> 00:01:42.480
<v Speaker 2>my knowledge of causes of death. And Roberts Roberts, our

34
00:01:42.680 --> 00:01:45.719
<v Speaker 2>master of logic, fitted each step of the perfect murder

35
00:01:45.760 --> 00:01:48.560
<v Speaker 2>into its proper place with breathtaking precision.

36
00:01:49.280 --> 00:01:51.519
<v Speaker 3>You need to say, doctor Paris, that your trio has

37
00:01:51.599 --> 00:01:53.599
<v Speaker 3>created the perfect murder.

38
00:01:53.640 --> 00:01:57.159
<v Speaker 2>Astonished, no, gentleman, not quite. Our objective was to construct

39
00:01:57.159 --> 00:02:00.560
<v Speaker 2>a murder so ideally committed that it was a slutely

40
00:02:00.599 --> 00:02:04.239
<v Speaker 2>impossible to know how the victim had died, and impossible

41
00:02:04.280 --> 00:02:06.719
<v Speaker 2>to identify the killer. Good lord, if anyone knew how

42
00:02:06.719 --> 00:02:10.080
<v Speaker 2>to commit such a crime. While I think someone does,

43
00:02:10.400 --> 00:02:13.560
<v Speaker 2>Dr Watson, really, we solved every problem for the would

44
00:02:13.599 --> 00:02:16.439
<v Speaker 2>be killer except one. The final step called for a

45
00:02:16.439 --> 00:02:19.039
<v Speaker 2>staggering feet of logic. It was a puzzle fit for

46
00:02:19.120 --> 00:02:23.280
<v Speaker 2>our greatest minds. Well R. T. D. Wickham and I

47
00:02:23.280 --> 00:02:24.000
<v Speaker 2>forgot the problem.

48
00:02:24.000 --> 00:02:26.800
<v Speaker 3>We felt it could never be solved, and Professor Roberts

49
00:02:26.800 --> 00:02:27.840
<v Speaker 3>the logician.

50
00:02:27.560 --> 00:02:30.759
<v Speaker 2>Precisely why I've come to you, mister Holmes. I've known

51
00:02:30.840 --> 00:02:34.159
<v Speaker 2>Roberts intimately for years. He has an insatiate passion for

52
00:02:34.240 --> 00:02:37.159
<v Speaker 2>such things. He spent every minute of his spare time

53
00:02:37.319 --> 00:02:41.439
<v Speaker 2>playing highly advanced forms of chess Shogi, the Japanese version,

54
00:02:41.639 --> 00:02:46.400
<v Speaker 2>cylindrical chess, three dimensional chess. He has solved retrograde problems

55
00:02:46.400 --> 00:02:49.080
<v Speaker 2>in chess that have been riddle since the sixth century. Person,

56
00:02:49.159 --> 00:02:51.599
<v Speaker 2>you mean, doctor? You believe Robert may have solved the

57
00:02:51.680 --> 00:02:55.639
<v Speaker 2>last step of this perfect crime. I do. It's a

58
00:02:55.639 --> 00:02:59.960
<v Speaker 2>horrible accusation. Once knowing that last step, Roberts might commit

59
00:03:00.280 --> 00:03:02.639
<v Speaker 2>murders endlessly without ever fearing that he be caught.

60
00:03:02.919 --> 00:03:05.400
<v Speaker 4>Why are you so certain that Roberts has solved.

61
00:03:05.080 --> 00:03:06.159
<v Speaker 5>It, mister Holmes?

62
00:03:06.680 --> 00:03:09.719
<v Speaker 2>That man could not sleep, could not eat, could not

63
00:03:09.800 --> 00:03:12.080
<v Speaker 2>keep his senity if he did not solve such a problem.

64
00:03:12.319 --> 00:03:15.360
<v Speaker 2>But even if he can commit the perfect murder, why

65
00:03:15.360 --> 00:03:18.319
<v Speaker 2>should he attempt? The temptation is too powerful to resist,

66
00:03:18.360 --> 00:03:21.400
<v Speaker 2>Doctor Watton. You're a man of science, sir, surely you

67
00:03:21.439 --> 00:03:25.639
<v Speaker 2>appreciate the ruthless driving force of the scientific mind. Professor

68
00:03:25.680 --> 00:03:27.560
<v Speaker 2>Roberts would have to know if the murder would really perfect.

69
00:03:27.599 --> 00:03:28.479
<v Speaker 2>He'd have to try it.

70
00:03:28.960 --> 00:03:30.560
<v Speaker 4>And what do you expect of me, Doctor Pett.

71
00:03:30.719 --> 00:03:33.919
<v Speaker 2>I am a physician, Sir, not a criminologist. I believe

72
00:03:33.960 --> 00:03:37.120
<v Speaker 2>the menace is great. I hoped you might see Professor Roberts,

73
00:03:37.120 --> 00:03:39.240
<v Speaker 2>you might try to learn if he can commit the

74
00:03:39.280 --> 00:03:40.039
<v Speaker 2>ideal murder.

75
00:03:40.240 --> 00:03:42.520
<v Speaker 4>Have you asked him yourself if he solved the puzzle?

76
00:03:42.639 --> 00:03:45.080
<v Speaker 2>Yes, he denies, having thought of it since that tea,

77
00:03:45.680 --> 00:03:48.840
<v Speaker 2>But his whole being is dedicated with a religious fervor

78
00:03:49.000 --> 00:03:52.800
<v Speaker 2>to visiting weird, unexplored areas where the human brain has

79
00:03:52.840 --> 00:03:56.560
<v Speaker 2>never ventured. He could not resist embarking upon so magnificent

80
00:03:56.800 --> 00:03:57.840
<v Speaker 2>odyssey of the mind.

81
00:03:58.159 --> 00:04:00.680
<v Speaker 4>I see accept.

82
00:04:00.400 --> 00:04:03.120
<v Speaker 3>The invitation, Doctor Porrest Watson, and I shall see your professor.

83
00:04:03.280 --> 00:04:06.319
<v Speaker 2>It's simple to find him. He lives with his young niece, Edith,

84
00:04:06.599 --> 00:04:08.080
<v Speaker 2>at a cottage in Boys Hill.

85
00:04:08.319 --> 00:04:11.599
<v Speaker 3>Come Watson, we shall attempt to learn if Professor Roberts

86
00:04:11.639 --> 00:04:14.560
<v Speaker 3>has become the one human being on earth who knows

87
00:04:14.560 --> 00:04:17.160
<v Speaker 3>the technique for an absolutely perfect murder.

88
00:04:25.000 --> 00:04:25.920
<v Speaker 5>I'm delighted to.

89
00:04:25.839 --> 00:04:27.720
<v Speaker 6>Have so renowned against mister Helmes.

90
00:04:27.759 --> 00:04:31.519
<v Speaker 3>Welcome, Thank you, Professor Roberts. I trust we're not imposing.

91
00:04:31.680 --> 00:04:33.439
<v Speaker 6>No, no, no, no, cries the contrary.

92
00:04:33.480 --> 00:04:36.160
<v Speaker 1>I've plenty of time. Matter of fact, I was just

93
00:04:36.279 --> 00:04:38.319
<v Speaker 1>leaving for a few days vacation with my niece.

94
00:04:38.399 --> 00:04:41.160
<v Speaker 5>I've all sorts of spare time these days. Are you

95
00:04:41.240 --> 00:04:44.480
<v Speaker 5>comfortable there, Doctor Watson, Very Professor Verick.

96
00:04:44.519 --> 00:04:47.000
<v Speaker 6>A gentleman with so many demands upon his services.

97
00:04:47.040 --> 00:04:51.800
<v Speaker 1>Surely this is a this is a vital importance. It is, Professor,

98
00:04:52.439 --> 00:04:53.319
<v Speaker 1>I met your service.

99
00:04:54.720 --> 00:04:58.480
<v Speaker 3>Professor, you entered into a discussion with two faculty associates

100
00:04:58.480 --> 00:05:02.120
<v Speaker 3>of yours some weeks ago, Doctor Forrest and Justice Wickham.

101
00:05:02.720 --> 00:05:05.360
<v Speaker 1>When I see them so frequently to which discussion do

102
00:05:05.399 --> 00:05:05.839
<v Speaker 1>you refer?

103
00:05:06.120 --> 00:05:06.560
<v Speaker 4>It was a.

104
00:05:06.480 --> 00:05:12.240
<v Speaker 3>Delightful afternoon tea and the subject was murder, Professor the

105
00:05:12.360 --> 00:05:13.439
<v Speaker 3>Flawless's murder.

106
00:05:14.360 --> 00:05:17.399
<v Speaker 1>Oh yes, yes, yes, yes, I recall it. Evidently it

107
00:05:17.519 --> 00:05:19.439
<v Speaker 1>made a lasting impression upon them.

108
00:05:20.040 --> 00:05:23.920
<v Speaker 3>Who will talk to you about it, doctor Pollip? Professor

109
00:05:24.079 --> 00:05:28.000
<v Speaker 3>one step in logic remained. One problem was unsorrowed to

110
00:05:28.079 --> 00:05:31.000
<v Speaker 3>arrive at the ultimate ideal technique for committing the murder?

111
00:05:32.079 --> 00:05:32.879
<v Speaker 4>Is that correct?

112
00:05:33.360 --> 00:05:33.720
<v Speaker 5>It is?

113
00:05:33.839 --> 00:05:35.680
<v Speaker 2>Did you give the problem further thought?

114
00:05:35.959 --> 00:05:36.360
<v Speaker 5>No?

115
00:05:36.360 --> 00:05:37.240
<v Speaker 6>No, no, none.

116
00:05:37.279 --> 00:05:41.160
<v Speaker 1>What's the problem with impossible even for one of your gifts,

117
00:05:41.319 --> 00:05:44.439
<v Speaker 1>mister Holmes. Surely you must know that the perfect murder

118
00:05:44.879 --> 00:05:49.439
<v Speaker 1>is an illusion. It defies the infinitely pettiscope of the

119
00:05:49.519 --> 00:05:50.439
<v Speaker 1>human mind.

120
00:05:50.279 --> 00:05:54.000
<v Speaker 7>Uncle Edward, the luggage is ready hit by the door. Oh,

121
00:05:54.399 --> 00:05:55.319
<v Speaker 7>I beg your pardon.

122
00:05:55.319 --> 00:05:58.720
<v Speaker 1>Oh, this is my niece, Edith Marshall, Edith, mister Sherlock Holmes,

123
00:05:58.920 --> 00:06:03.000
<v Speaker 1>Doctor John Watson. It's been preparing us for our little vacation.

124
00:06:03.279 --> 00:06:04.600
<v Speaker 1>Is everything ready, my dear.

125
00:06:04.519 --> 00:06:07.439
<v Speaker 8>Yes, Uncle Edward, I haven't the time between the house,

126
00:06:07.480 --> 00:06:10.839
<v Speaker 8>though I dislike leaving it though, Dustice, it's all about

127
00:06:11.160 --> 00:06:12.959
<v Speaker 8>on the brookshelves and your chest.

128
00:06:12.720 --> 00:06:13.360
<v Speaker 7>Set on the man.

129
00:06:13.560 --> 00:06:15.759
<v Speaker 1>Oh, let it be that is each child? We shan't care,

130
00:06:17.279 --> 00:06:20.720
<v Speaker 1>mister Holmes. Was it solely because of that discussion you

131
00:06:20.800 --> 00:06:26.319
<v Speaker 1>mentioned that you came here solely? I certainly do hope

132
00:06:26.360 --> 00:06:28.040
<v Speaker 1>you won't take offense. But it strikes me.

133
00:06:28.000 --> 00:06:31.959
<v Speaker 5>As rather a fool parent, does it? Doctor Forest is.

134
00:06:31.959 --> 00:06:34.279
<v Speaker 1>Sometimes more of a nervous old woman than a professor

135
00:06:34.279 --> 00:06:35.120
<v Speaker 1>of toxicology.

136
00:06:35.199 --> 00:06:38.279
<v Speaker 3>I always choose to follow the sense of murder. Professor

137
00:06:38.360 --> 00:06:40.160
<v Speaker 3>arm however, faint and elusive.

138
00:06:41.279 --> 00:06:42.480
<v Speaker 7>What's wrong, Uncle Edward?

139
00:06:42.600 --> 00:06:42.920
<v Speaker 5>Nothing?

140
00:06:42.959 --> 00:06:43.439
<v Speaker 6>Nothing at all.

141
00:06:44.079 --> 00:06:47.720
<v Speaker 1>Mister Holmes and I were just chatting a third problem

142
00:06:47.759 --> 00:06:49.519
<v Speaker 1>of the perfect murder.

143
00:06:49.639 --> 00:06:51.800
<v Speaker 2>If they're off on a vacation homes perhaps sweet better.

144
00:06:51.879 --> 00:06:54.199
<v Speaker 7>Oh, we don't want to rush you. It's quite all right,

145
00:06:54.680 --> 00:06:57.040
<v Speaker 7>of course, this is an entirely education.

146
00:06:56.759 --> 00:06:57.600
<v Speaker 5>For Uncle Edward.

147
00:06:57.959 --> 00:06:59.240
<v Speaker 4>Why not, because you.

148
00:06:59.279 --> 00:07:01.480
<v Speaker 8>Must read the minute that the border passing was meeting

149
00:07:01.600 --> 00:07:04.319
<v Speaker 8>last week. You should have gone, I'm taking them along.

150
00:07:05.360 --> 00:07:07.120
<v Speaker 2>We best dash along him.

151
00:07:07.439 --> 00:07:09.800
<v Speaker 6>I regret that your mission is not more.

152
00:07:09.720 --> 00:07:11.160
<v Speaker 5>Truthful, mister Holmes.

153
00:07:11.279 --> 00:07:20.000
<v Speaker 1>It's been enlightening, Professor Roberts.

154
00:07:22.480 --> 00:07:25.399
<v Speaker 8>Uncle Edward, don't be upset.

155
00:07:25.480 --> 00:07:27.560
<v Speaker 5>But what is it?

156
00:07:28.560 --> 00:07:30.920
<v Speaker 7>You did tell mister Holmes the truth, didn't you?

157
00:07:31.560 --> 00:07:34.360
<v Speaker 8>The truth about not having worked out a way to

158
00:07:34.399 --> 00:07:36.600
<v Speaker 8>commit a perfect murder?

159
00:07:37.000 --> 00:07:38.160
<v Speaker 5>Of course I tell the truth.

160
00:07:38.600 --> 00:07:41.079
<v Speaker 7>I wish you'd never discuss it with Wickham as forest

161
00:07:41.160 --> 00:07:44.240
<v Speaker 7>afar Well, ever since you did, I've had an awful

162
00:07:44.360 --> 00:07:47.920
<v Speaker 7>feeling about him. Really, the kind of shadow's fallen over

163
00:07:48.040 --> 00:07:51.879
<v Speaker 7>the cottage. I was never afraid to stay here before, But.

164
00:07:52.000 --> 00:07:54.959
<v Speaker 8>Last night I couldn't sleep. I kept wondering if you

165
00:07:55.160 --> 00:08:00.959
<v Speaker 8>solved the problem. I kept wondering what you might do dismiss.

166
00:08:00.560 --> 00:08:04.120
<v Speaker 1>It from your mind, even if, by some chance I

167
00:08:04.519 --> 00:08:05.519
<v Speaker 1>should finally answer.

168
00:08:06.360 --> 00:08:06.879
<v Speaker 4>What of it?

169
00:08:07.240 --> 00:08:10.920
<v Speaker 7>I don't know. I saw you in the garden yesterday,

170
00:08:11.480 --> 00:08:15.079
<v Speaker 7>a twilight. It was very cold outside, but you were

171
00:08:15.160 --> 00:08:18.720
<v Speaker 7>standing there without a colder hat, and there was perspiration

172
00:08:18.920 --> 00:08:19.519
<v Speaker 7>on your face.

173
00:08:20.639 --> 00:08:23.360
<v Speaker 5>Does your imagination no, I saw you quite clearly.

174
00:08:24.319 --> 00:08:30.079
<v Speaker 7>I couldn't help but think yes. Never mind, I am

175
00:08:30.120 --> 00:08:30.879
<v Speaker 7>being foolish.

176
00:08:31.199 --> 00:08:33.879
<v Speaker 1>You've been working hardy this your tents. You, we're both

177
00:08:33.919 --> 00:08:37.519
<v Speaker 1>a bit bored. The atmosphere is oppressive. As soon as

178
00:08:37.559 --> 00:08:41.759
<v Speaker 1>we reached the cutthroll, those beautiful hills, your alife.

179
00:08:42.159 --> 00:08:42.679
<v Speaker 7>I hope you.

180
00:08:43.519 --> 00:08:46.960
<v Speaker 8>I have been overwrought all because of that stupid conversation

181
00:08:47.120 --> 00:08:48.440
<v Speaker 8>and that gruesome problem.

182
00:08:49.639 --> 00:08:50.840
<v Speaker 7>Care we set your things and do.

183
00:08:53.120 --> 00:08:54.159
<v Speaker 5>By all means.

184
00:09:01.399 --> 00:09:03.519
<v Speaker 2>Well, Holmes, For once, I do believe you've taken us

185
00:09:03.600 --> 00:09:07.200
<v Speaker 2>upon a futile journey. Not that I mind a carriage

186
00:09:07.279 --> 00:09:11.159
<v Speaker 2>riding the trade back to London. I rather it, Holmes.

187
00:09:11.200 --> 00:09:12.919
<v Speaker 2>Are you paying the slightest bit of attention?

188
00:09:13.519 --> 00:09:14.360
<v Speaker 4>No, my dear one thing.

189
00:09:14.960 --> 00:09:18.159
<v Speaker 2>You're not convinced by Professor Roberts protests of innocent's eyes.

190
00:09:18.519 --> 00:09:21.480
<v Speaker 3>One mixes the various elements in the retort Watson, one

191
00:09:21.799 --> 00:09:24.080
<v Speaker 3>lights the flame and soon the bruise against the bubbles.

192
00:09:25.000 --> 00:09:27.120
<v Speaker 3>There were elements of our few moments with the Professor

193
00:09:27.159 --> 00:09:29.879
<v Speaker 3>of Logic that should soon produce a fascinating compound.

194
00:09:29.960 --> 00:09:31.879
<v Speaker 2>I didn't notice anything peculiar.

195
00:09:31.480 --> 00:09:35.120
<v Speaker 4>Didn't you? The Professor of Logic was most illogical.

196
00:09:35.399 --> 00:09:37.799
<v Speaker 3>Was he given a moment for further contemplation? I shall

197
00:09:37.840 --> 00:09:41.519
<v Speaker 3>have crystallized my thoughts. Well, I'm to think fast. If

198
00:09:41.600 --> 00:09:43.799
<v Speaker 3>the Professor knows how to commit the perfect murder, he

199
00:09:43.879 --> 00:09:45.480
<v Speaker 3>may be tempted to cry it at any moment.

200
00:09:46.919 --> 00:09:48.120
<v Speaker 4>Ah, you have it home.

201
00:09:48.519 --> 00:09:51.000
<v Speaker 3>Turn back driver, back to paus Hill, to the Professor's

202
00:09:51.000 --> 00:09:52.759
<v Speaker 3>house where you found us, quickly, quickly.

203
00:09:56.200 --> 00:09:58.120
<v Speaker 2>Do you believe the professor solved at home?

204
00:09:58.200 --> 00:09:58.720
<v Speaker 4>I'm sure of it.

205
00:09:58.799 --> 00:09:59.200
<v Speaker 2>How'd you know?

206
00:09:59.480 --> 00:10:01.559
<v Speaker 4>He remarked that he had a great deal of fair

207
00:10:01.720 --> 00:10:03.440
<v Speaker 4>time Previously.

208
00:10:03.120 --> 00:10:06.600
<v Speaker 3>Doctor Forrest informed of the Professor Robert has a fanatic interest.

209
00:10:06.399 --> 00:10:08.519
<v Speaker 2>In advanced forms of chess. Yes, sir, he did.

210
00:10:08.759 --> 00:10:12.080
<v Speaker 3>Yet with all this fair time, Edith, his niece, observed

211
00:10:12.080 --> 00:10:14.120
<v Speaker 3>that his chest that was covered with dust, had gone

212
00:10:14.159 --> 00:10:17.480
<v Speaker 3>unused for a considerable period. Why, what's why would an

213
00:10:17.519 --> 00:10:20.399
<v Speaker 3>incurable addictive treess abandoned it completely when he has ample time?

214
00:10:21.200 --> 00:10:23.080
<v Speaker 3>Then consider the minutes of the trustees meeting.

215
00:10:23.159 --> 00:10:23.639
<v Speaker 2>The minutes.

216
00:10:23.759 --> 00:10:26.960
<v Speaker 3>Yes, Edith reprimanded the professor for failing to appear at

217
00:10:27.000 --> 00:10:29.759
<v Speaker 3>the meeting, so that he's now obliged to read the minutes.

218
00:10:30.039 --> 00:10:32.320
<v Speaker 3>Although he has so much time, the professor neglected up

219
00:10:32.480 --> 00:10:36.679
<v Speaker 3>your appointment, White, What's he only one answer is conceivable.

220
00:10:37.600 --> 00:10:40.360
<v Speaker 3>He's been so consumed by the desire to solve the

221
00:10:40.440 --> 00:10:41.440
<v Speaker 3>riddle of the ideal murder.

222
00:10:41.600 --> 00:10:44.840
<v Speaker 2>Yes, you're right, House, we must confront him with your conclusions. Yes,

223
00:10:44.919 --> 00:10:47.480
<v Speaker 2>but while you've the evidence that he's been struggling with

224
00:10:47.559 --> 00:10:49.759
<v Speaker 2>the riddle, how'd you learn that he's found the answer?

225
00:10:49.879 --> 00:10:50.480
<v Speaker 4>Think Watson.

226
00:10:50.879 --> 00:10:53.039
<v Speaker 3>If he were innocent, if he were considering the problem

227
00:10:53.120 --> 00:10:56.480
<v Speaker 3>merely as an exercise in mental gymnastics, he would admitted

228
00:10:56.519 --> 00:10:57.519
<v Speaker 3>to working on it, would he not?

229
00:10:58.080 --> 00:11:01.360
<v Speaker 4>However, he lied? He pretended who ignored that afternoons? He

230
00:11:01.480 --> 00:11:02.159
<v Speaker 4>once it had ended.

231
00:11:02.639 --> 00:11:04.960
<v Speaker 3>He could only have attempted that camouflage if he had

232
00:11:04.960 --> 00:11:08.240
<v Speaker 3>an insidious motive. I should say he knows how to

233
00:11:08.279 --> 00:11:10.799
<v Speaker 3>commit the perfect murter, and he intends to try. I

234
00:11:10.840 --> 00:11:13.960
<v Speaker 3>should say he would choose for his victim a trusting

235
00:11:14.039 --> 00:11:17.639
<v Speaker 3>individual who's quite handy. In short, is lovely young nieces

236
00:11:17.879 --> 00:11:20.080
<v Speaker 3>Edith try not contrasted.

237
00:11:20.159 --> 00:11:22.559

263
00:13:04.679 --> 00:13:07.559
<v Speaker 1>Dr Watson, we're most impatient to return to your story.

264
00:13:08.159 --> 00:13:11.639
<v Speaker 2>Well, mister Harris, with the shocking realization that Professor Roberts

265
00:13:11.759 --> 00:13:14.799
<v Speaker 2>knew how to commit a perfect murder and was probably

266
00:13:14.840 --> 00:13:17.120
<v Speaker 2>about to try it upon his young niece, Holmes and

267
00:13:17.200 --> 00:13:19.720
<v Speaker 2>I raised in our carriage back to the Professor's cottage

268
00:13:19.720 --> 00:13:20.440
<v Speaker 2>at Ball's Hill.

269
00:13:25.080 --> 00:13:28.039
<v Speaker 3>It's odd if this answered so quickly when we first

270
00:13:28.120 --> 00:13:30.080
<v Speaker 3>call on him, not once more, Watson.

271
00:13:31.519 --> 00:13:33.120
<v Speaker 2>You know he may have done away with either after

272
00:13:33.159 --> 00:13:34.679
<v Speaker 2>we left. Now is Spanish.

273
00:13:34.840 --> 00:13:36.519
<v Speaker 4>If he has, it'll be the first active murder.

274
00:13:36.600 --> 00:13:39.360
<v Speaker 3>I shall never be able to prove Watson merely indicting

275
00:13:39.440 --> 00:13:41.679
<v Speaker 3>him on the basis of chatter the tea party would

276
00:13:41.679 --> 00:13:43.320
<v Speaker 3>be of no avail. We shall not be able to

277
00:13:43.399 --> 00:13:45.559
<v Speaker 3>establish the cause of death, the motive, nor anything else.

278
00:13:47.559 --> 00:13:48.480
<v Speaker 2>Refuses to answer.

279
00:13:48.679 --> 00:13:50.279
<v Speaker 4>This door is flimsy. I mean we have enough strength

280
00:13:50.320 --> 00:13:50.919
<v Speaker 4>to force it right.

281
00:13:51.000 --> 00:13:58.039
<v Speaker 2>You are ready, ready once more? Home There we are.

282
00:14:02.759 --> 00:14:09.080
<v Speaker 4>To Petha Roberts, Pa, Petha Roberts, that's the other rots.

283
00:14:09.240 --> 00:14:13.600
<v Speaker 2>Yes, No one in the bedroom, not in this kitchen

284
00:14:14.759 --> 00:14:15.600
<v Speaker 2>that is empty too.

285
00:14:16.240 --> 00:14:16.720
<v Speaker 4>They've gone.

286
00:14:16.720 --> 00:14:18.519
<v Speaker 3>Watson, the professor of logic, has made off with his

287
00:14:18.639 --> 00:14:19.840
<v Speaker 3>niece to use her as his victim.

288
00:14:19.879 --> 00:14:21.879
<v Speaker 2>Could we possibly find them homes? They said they were

289
00:14:21.919 --> 00:14:22.840
<v Speaker 2>going on a vacation.

290
00:14:22.720 --> 00:14:24.759
<v Speaker 4>Yes, but where Watson where? We must look at every

291
00:14:24.840 --> 00:14:25.840
<v Speaker 4>corner of this cottage for a.

292
00:14:25.879 --> 00:14:34.480
<v Speaker 2>Clue about ransacked the whole place.

293
00:14:34.240 --> 00:14:36.519
<v Speaker 4>Home, Yes, and no indication of where he's taken the girl.

294
00:14:36.759 --> 00:14:37.519
<v Speaker 4>There must be one.

295
00:14:37.559 --> 00:14:39.960
<v Speaker 3>A human being cannot quit his quarters for a prolonged

296
00:14:40.000 --> 00:14:41.440
<v Speaker 3>period without being traced to see.

297
00:14:41.440 --> 00:14:43.240
<v Speaker 2>They might have gone to Bonn as the fishing, or

298
00:14:43.559 --> 00:14:46.519
<v Speaker 2>the whales. Whales from mountain there they might have taken

299
00:14:46.559 --> 00:14:50.000
<v Speaker 2>the waters in malroom. Perhaps they just dashed over the Cotswolds.

300
00:14:50.080 --> 00:14:52.440
<v Speaker 3>You know, the many small hotels and many possibilities. But

301
00:14:52.519 --> 00:14:53.799
<v Speaker 3>we have no time at all, and we must know.

302
00:14:53.840 --> 00:14:56.200
<v Speaker 2>Exactly where I've gone through the pazzas, through his books,

303
00:14:56.240 --> 00:14:57.480
<v Speaker 2>as desk, the niece's bureau.

304
00:14:57.639 --> 00:15:00.600
<v Speaker 4>We haven't emptied the waste paper basket, Watson, the motion homes.

305
00:15:00.600 --> 00:15:02.399
<v Speaker 5>I'll do it, the.

306
00:15:04.120 --> 00:15:08.799
<v Speaker 2>Notes, canceled check and advertisements. That envelope, just the corner

307
00:15:08.840 --> 00:15:10.960
<v Speaker 2>of an envelope. The rest has been hopelessly torn away,

308
00:15:11.200 --> 00:15:13.480
<v Speaker 2>just the last person where the return address is printed.

309
00:15:13.559 --> 00:15:19.159
<v Speaker 4>Mass Yet m E R s E T s h

310
00:15:19.279 --> 00:15:19.679
<v Speaker 4>I R E.

311
00:15:21.320 --> 00:15:25.039
<v Speaker 2>What word ends are in our homes? This letter might

312
00:15:25.080 --> 00:15:27.720
<v Speaker 2>have been written to the professor for any purpose whatsoever.

313
00:15:27.440 --> 00:15:27.960
<v Speaker 4>Yes, Watson.

314
00:15:28.000 --> 00:15:29.399
<v Speaker 3>But if it should happen to have come from a

315
00:15:29.440 --> 00:15:33.480
<v Speaker 3>well established resort, we might reasonably assume it with correspondence

316
00:15:33.519 --> 00:15:35.960
<v Speaker 3>involving a reservation for the professor in his niece.

317
00:15:36.320 --> 00:15:38.919
<v Speaker 2>The vacase of spots. I can think of end. There's

318
00:15:39.080 --> 00:15:42.440
<v Speaker 2>molds a border of the desile of white.

319
00:15:42.519 --> 00:15:46.799
<v Speaker 3>The word that ends that way is Somersetshire, The Cutswolds,

320
00:15:46.840 --> 00:15:49.120
<v Speaker 3>the nearest and most popular holiday resort in this area.

321
00:15:49.679 --> 00:15:51.720
<v Speaker 4>We'll do just as well by carriage as it if

322
00:15:51.799 --> 00:15:52.759
<v Speaker 4>we stop to wait for the train.

323
00:15:52.879 --> 00:15:55.279
<v Speaker 2>Certainly he petch a cab, run Watson run.

324
00:16:02.679 --> 00:16:05.320
<v Speaker 7>The countryside. Here in the cart is excluse it isn't

325
00:16:05.480 --> 00:16:06.080
<v Speaker 7>Uncle Edwards?

326
00:16:06.759 --> 00:16:09.720
<v Speaker 5>Heh yes, yes, it's m charting.

327
00:16:10.039 --> 00:16:11.399
<v Speaker 7>You don't seem to be enjoying it.

328
00:16:11.600 --> 00:16:12.759
<v Speaker 5>Oh, but I am idea, I am.

329
00:16:12.879 --> 00:16:17.320
<v Speaker 7>You seem distracted. You haven't been thinking of that awful problem,

330
00:16:17.399 --> 00:16:17.639
<v Speaker 7>have you?

331
00:16:19.440 --> 00:16:24.679
<v Speaker 5>Perhaps, Uncle Edward the great weakness he is proud of.

332
00:16:24.759 --> 00:16:28.320
<v Speaker 5>My can't soil becomes an obsession. You should know that I've.

333
00:16:28.200 --> 00:16:32.440
<v Speaker 1>Become candless, thirsting in hell, up to my chin in

334
00:16:32.480 --> 00:16:35.639
<v Speaker 1>a pool of water which proceeds, but I attempt to drink.

335
00:16:36.000 --> 00:16:38.399
<v Speaker 7>You must use your willpower. You must forget it.

336
00:16:39.600 --> 00:16:42.879
<v Speaker 5>It's too late. What do you mean I did lie

337
00:16:42.919 --> 00:16:44.960
<v Speaker 5>the homes? What I lied?

338
00:16:45.960 --> 00:16:48.080
<v Speaker 1>I have been thinking about how to commit the perfect

339
00:16:48.200 --> 00:16:50.960
<v Speaker 1>murder ever since that's strained after you know, it seems

340
00:16:51.039 --> 00:16:53.679
<v Speaker 1>almost unreal now, almost as if part of it were

341
00:16:53.720 --> 00:16:56.559
<v Speaker 1>a drink. I have been thinking of it since I

342
00:16:56.679 --> 00:16:58.879
<v Speaker 1>sat there in the sun of the two professors to tea.

343
00:16:59.200 --> 00:17:03.799
<v Speaker 1>I'd lid chat dream, never realizing what seeds were being

344
00:17:04.039 --> 00:17:05.400
<v Speaker 1>planted in my mind?

345
00:17:05.880 --> 00:17:09.240
<v Speaker 7>Did you saw the part along Lebward? Do you know

346
00:17:09.400 --> 00:17:13.359
<v Speaker 7>how to commit a perfect murder? Do you know?

347
00:17:15.480 --> 00:17:15.960
<v Speaker 5>Do you know.

348
00:17:18.160 --> 00:17:20.599
<v Speaker 7>Tantony by?

349
00:17:24.640 --> 00:17:27.200
<v Speaker 5>Yes? Yes I do?

350
00:17:28.000 --> 00:17:31.119
<v Speaker 7>What do you intend to do about it? Will you

351
00:17:31.279 --> 00:17:33.759
<v Speaker 7>tell me the homes? Will you tell Wickham? Or false

352
00:17:34.279 --> 00:17:34.920
<v Speaker 7>to the police.

353
00:17:36.759 --> 00:17:39.000
<v Speaker 1>I've been under a great stain all these weeks. I've

354
00:17:39.039 --> 00:17:40.559
<v Speaker 1>hardly Let's go back to the hotel.

355
00:17:40.720 --> 00:17:43.559
<v Speaker 5>Leave me. I want to walk by myself.

356
00:17:43.200 --> 00:17:46.599
<v Speaker 8>In this cool air very well, not Ledward, but you

357
00:17:46.759 --> 00:17:48.839
<v Speaker 8>can't keep this terrible secret to yourself.

358
00:17:49.640 --> 00:17:51.240
<v Speaker 7>What do you intend to do about it?

359
00:17:51.559 --> 00:17:54.960
<v Speaker 5>I shall do nothing for the moment.

360
00:18:01.519 --> 00:18:04.119
<v Speaker 2>Well, our carriage is coming into the Cotswolds host and

361
00:18:04.279 --> 00:18:05.960
<v Speaker 2>past one. Difficulty remains.

362
00:18:06.440 --> 00:18:07.799
<v Speaker 4>Difficulty wants to There must be.

363
00:18:07.880 --> 00:18:10.599
<v Speaker 2>Some fifteen or twenty hotels camps in other places where

364
00:18:10.640 --> 00:18:13.279
<v Speaker 2>the professor may have taken his niece in these hills. Now,

365
00:18:13.319 --> 00:18:15.440
<v Speaker 2>how do we determine which spot that he's chosen for

366
00:18:15.480 --> 00:18:15.799
<v Speaker 2>the month?

367
00:18:15.920 --> 00:18:17.759
<v Speaker 4>There will be away, Watson, there will be away.

368
00:18:17.680 --> 00:18:20.279
<v Speaker 2>Confounded holds of human idea of how to find the skiller?

369
00:18:20.359 --> 00:18:22.359
<v Speaker 2>Then tell me this is hard for the time to

370
00:18:22.400 --> 00:18:23.200
<v Speaker 2>play capt'n.

371
00:18:22.960 --> 00:18:26.000
<v Speaker 3>House only Watson calmly, there must be a way of

372
00:18:26.079 --> 00:18:28.440
<v Speaker 3>learning the whereabouts if we're not too late to save

373
00:18:28.480 --> 00:18:29.680
<v Speaker 3>the girl's life already.

374
00:18:36.599 --> 00:18:41.200
<v Speaker 7>Clark, Yes, ma'am. Does this al send telegraphic messages first death?

375
00:18:42.039 --> 00:18:43.000
<v Speaker 2>Certainly, ma'am, I.

376
00:18:43.000 --> 00:18:45.720
<v Speaker 7>Should like to send this message immediately. Can you read

377
00:18:45.759 --> 00:18:46.440
<v Speaker 7>my handwriting?

378
00:18:47.799 --> 00:18:47.839
<v Speaker 5>You?

379
00:18:47.960 --> 00:18:51.440
<v Speaker 2>Mister Sherlock Holmes, two to one feet Baked Street, London.

380
00:18:51.839 --> 00:18:55.079
<v Speaker 4>Uncle Edward has solved the riddle urgent to come here.

381
00:18:55.559 --> 00:18:58.000
<v Speaker 4>We are in the Cutwall Saint George Hotel.

382
00:18:58.480 --> 00:19:00.920
<v Speaker 7>Then I'll lose this sect that's right, Send it now?

383
00:19:00.960 --> 00:19:02.519
<v Speaker 7>Would you put the charges on my bill?

384
00:19:02.599 --> 00:19:04.079
<v Speaker 4>Yes? Miss, thank you?

385
00:19:08.759 --> 00:19:13.359
<v Speaker 1>Yes, Oh, Professor Lovell, I need here to Did you

386
00:19:14.079 --> 00:19:14.920
<v Speaker 1>do what she wanted?

387
00:19:15.119 --> 00:19:15.279
<v Speaker 5>Yes?

388
00:19:15.359 --> 00:19:17.400
<v Speaker 6>I am sending the telegram for and now.

389
00:19:18.680 --> 00:19:21.000
<v Speaker 4>May I see it here?

390
00:19:21.400 --> 00:19:28.240
<v Speaker 5>Profession o? Mm hmmm, oh, it isn't necessarily to send

391
00:19:28.640 --> 00:19:28.960
<v Speaker 5>Tear it.

392
00:19:29.000 --> 00:19:33.400
<v Speaker 2>Out, the professor said, tear it up anything you think?

393
00:19:42.119 --> 00:19:45.440
<v Speaker 2>Pop hair driver, Well, this is the Godchool District homes.

394
00:19:45.880 --> 00:19:47.720
<v Speaker 4>Now where to I shall make an inquiry of the

395
00:19:47.799 --> 00:19:48.400
<v Speaker 4>first hotel?

396
00:19:48.440 --> 00:19:50.279
<v Speaker 3>Watch to me what sort of inquie I shall ask?

397
00:19:50.400 --> 00:19:53.799
<v Speaker 3>Which hotel in this area is equipped with health Spark facilities.

398
00:19:53.880 --> 00:19:55.920
<v Speaker 3>What on earth you remember when he first visited the

399
00:19:55.960 --> 00:19:59.119
<v Speaker 3>cottage and bold head Edith said their luggage was ready

400
00:19:59.160 --> 00:20:02.480
<v Speaker 3>and standing by the door. Yes, you saw, but you

401
00:20:02.559 --> 00:20:05.079
<v Speaker 3>did not think you should have noticed that the Professor's

402
00:20:05.119 --> 00:20:08.000
<v Speaker 3>luggage was covered with labels from hotels. He'd been too previous,

403
00:20:09.319 --> 00:20:11.400
<v Speaker 3>as you and I have been writing. I run quickly

404
00:20:11.480 --> 00:20:15.000
<v Speaker 3>through the labels I've seen. I realized instantly that every

405
00:20:15.039 --> 00:20:17.680
<v Speaker 3>hotel the professor had visited in the past was equipped

406
00:20:17.720 --> 00:20:20.319
<v Speaker 3>with health both facilities, obviously a preference of his.

407
00:20:21.119 --> 00:20:22.720
<v Speaker 4>The remainder of our problem is negligible.

408
00:20:22.880 --> 00:20:25.279
<v Speaker 3>We shall dash into this hotel and ask which spot

409
00:20:25.359 --> 00:20:27.880
<v Speaker 3>in these hills has a Turkish bath and similar equipment.

410
00:20:28.839 --> 00:20:30.640
<v Speaker 4>Wait for us, coachman, don't keep your pus.

411
00:20:37.559 --> 00:20:40.319
<v Speaker 7>Here's the ice for your head. Uncle, heads feeling better?

412
00:20:40.759 --> 00:20:42.640
<v Speaker 5>Yes, it is much better. So kind of you to

413
00:20:42.680 --> 00:20:43.440
<v Speaker 5>bring it to my room.

414
00:20:43.680 --> 00:20:46.000
<v Speaker 7>I've wrapped him this chiel I found in your bathroom.

415
00:20:46.559 --> 00:20:52.599
<v Speaker 5>There you are, Oh, I feel the good splitting headache.

416
00:20:52.880 --> 00:20:54.640
<v Speaker 7>You must take a nap. I leave you.

417
00:20:54.920 --> 00:20:59.960
<v Speaker 5>I don't think you can leave. I've locked the door.

418
00:21:00.839 --> 00:21:02.640
<v Speaker 5>What I've locked the door?

419
00:21:03.279 --> 00:21:04.039
<v Speaker 7>Why did you do that?

420
00:21:04.720 --> 00:21:05.839
<v Speaker 5>I didn't want you to go.

421
00:21:07.400 --> 00:21:10.319
<v Speaker 7>Don't get up saying that you're not worse.

422
00:21:10.359 --> 00:21:11.079
<v Speaker 5>There isn't the thing.

423
00:21:11.039 --> 00:21:13.319
<v Speaker 2>Wrong with me, But you asked me to bring the eyes.

424
00:21:14.680 --> 00:21:19.079
<v Speaker 1>Very cheap deception, Edith, but practical enough. I locked the

425
00:21:19.119 --> 00:21:21.079
<v Speaker 1>door to be sure you wouldn't run off. You see,

426
00:21:21.799 --> 00:21:24.680
<v Speaker 1>I've not only worked out how to commit the perfect murder,

427
00:21:25.640 --> 00:21:28.680
<v Speaker 1>but I cannot resist the temptation to see if my

428
00:21:29.000 --> 00:21:30.039
<v Speaker 1>theory is correct.

429
00:21:30.319 --> 00:21:31.519
<v Speaker 7>You're playing a game with you.

430
00:21:31.599 --> 00:21:33.000
<v Speaker 5>No, not at all. Try the door.

431
00:21:35.839 --> 00:21:36.400
<v Speaker 7>You've done that.

432
00:21:36.799 --> 00:21:39.880
<v Speaker 1>I fought this temptation, Edith. I did not want to

433
00:21:39.960 --> 00:21:42.680
<v Speaker 1>know the answers to the problem. I was afraid I'd

434
00:21:42.720 --> 00:21:47.319
<v Speaker 1>want to try it once I knew, And then I

435
00:21:47.559 --> 00:21:53.000
<v Speaker 1>fold this. I'm convinced the chances of anyone's learning the

436
00:21:53.119 --> 00:21:58.359
<v Speaker 1>cause of your death, the chances of their learning the

437
00:21:58.440 --> 00:22:00.640
<v Speaker 1>cause of your death, or of every using me of

438
00:22:00.759 --> 00:22:02.480
<v Speaker 1>it on non existence.

439
00:22:03.839 --> 00:22:05.400
<v Speaker 4>There is a way to kill you that.

440
00:22:05.640 --> 00:22:10.000
<v Speaker 5>Fulfill those seemingly impossible requirements.

441
00:22:10.359 --> 00:22:11.079
<v Speaker 7>Let me up.

442
00:22:14.319 --> 00:22:15.279
<v Speaker 5>Steps. You didn't notice.

443
00:22:15.279 --> 00:22:18.160
<v Speaker 1>I selected a room in an abandoned section of this

444
00:22:18.400 --> 00:22:20.359
<v Speaker 1>huge hotel in a distant town.

445
00:22:20.519 --> 00:22:21.359
<v Speaker 7>You couldn't do it.

446
00:22:21.480 --> 00:22:25.359
<v Speaker 4>You couldn't, I thought that myself. But can you appreciate

447
00:22:25.440 --> 00:22:27.319
<v Speaker 4>what an achievement this will be for me.

448
00:22:28.160 --> 00:22:30.920
<v Speaker 1>Can you understand how I had to know the answer,

449
00:22:31.480 --> 00:22:33.799
<v Speaker 1>and now that I do, how I must confirm it.

450
00:22:33.960 --> 00:22:35.960
<v Speaker 7>They'll find me here in your role?

451
00:22:36.279 --> 00:22:39.000
<v Speaker 1>Will the Holmes knows I went off with you. It's

452
00:22:39.000 --> 00:22:40.920
<v Speaker 1>a long way from that, proving I did away with you.

453
00:22:41.079 --> 00:22:46.759
<v Speaker 1>You forget this is the ideal murdered. There are steps

454
00:22:46.839 --> 00:22:49.400
<v Speaker 1>I shall take after you are dead.

455
00:22:49.799 --> 00:22:51.119
<v Speaker 7>I know the window.

456
00:22:52.279 --> 00:22:53.960
<v Speaker 5>I can't hope that I ended to that.

457
00:22:54.839 --> 00:22:57.200
<v Speaker 1>You also noticed that before you came, I cleared the room.

458
00:22:57.519 --> 00:22:59.720
<v Speaker 1>Nothing is available to you to use as a weapon

459
00:22:59.720 --> 00:23:04.680
<v Speaker 1>again me and you're going to die within the next
