it's a joke
well that has to be but be so doctor to advertise a real murder
in the newspaper on that bad night
1
this doesn't have anything to do with you does it Patrick me I'm
not a policy that's available home and I would have
put it past you Julia it's nothing to do with me your pops pillow I
can throw some light on it no it's not the sort of
things she'd to anyway I agree well someone seems to find it
amusing it frightens me well there's no need
delicious death yes
[Music] somebody's bound to drop round I thought we might
get her to make one I'm sure
you did well funny nothing's going to happen at 6:30 cept I
suppose Patrick is
right please do please sensible about
this nothing is going to happen at 6:30 no one's going to come
after you no spy
no agent and Milan take care of you so here's what I suggest
you do you go into
the pantry and get that beef and make a special goulash of
yours for lunch oh my
gosh a special time I had some very rich
red wine from Hungary oh you do that incidentally I expect one
or two people
might drop in around 6:30 it's nice [Applause]
by they come for a drink and a sandwich perhaps and you do
make such good
sandwiches it will be alright yes there's nothing to worry about
very well I am a good cook now I make them ready - oh yes but
not too much
garlic please you now like garlic in moderation yes but after
that last if
you made we were totally isolated in church on Sunday and
that was two days after we'd eaten it anyway I will just
use my coo cloves of garlic instead of my usual setting baggie
oh well yes beautifully handles how nice
1
of you to an agreement for once and she was always so good
with people
buddy we must not reminisce young people aren't interested in
the past nowadays
you're right I'm sorry I I wasn't angry at you bunny I know but I
really should
be more careful I should think before I say something and I'm
sure we all understand now yeah just read your paper
you know how much you enjoy it yes little but I won't read that
advertisement again no dad don't do that
I shed a wink tonight what if it sees right what if all of us are
murdered in our beds no Tim the announcement says
6:30 I don't think any of us we are dead by then no so there's
nothing to worry
about but we couldn't even write it down here just as easily as
an emphatic body
please but you don't do that well then forgot my bag could see
makes me clearing off
and me having to do the cooking from now on and I needn't it
any comment from you thank you very much I was just thinking
what a terrible omen C is we all know she didn't get any
telephone calls and what was her parents being sent to Siberia
last time she mentioned they
were executed in the Red Square well she's no Dan the snow
with teary cheeks well we must be sympathetic to me
they must be terribly lonely not having anyone from your
background talk to I suppose that's why she wakes up all
these stories eyes well yes I do but I think I can see why she
doesn't but
while her story such gloom doom and disaster well that's what
some people enjoy like some people enjoy reading
murder mysteries oh the door is open I do hope I'm not
intruding oh not at all
1
Miss Marple I just came by to look at these the other day I told
my nephew and
he insisted I bring some along for you
Oh my grandmother could roll them right up into the winter
months I simply adore violence there is something very
sentimental about them don't you think so Julia I think you
have a very romantic nature Miss Marple oh really
but I do see what you mean well I don't think Patrick does
there's no romance in his own well you're only his sister you
wouldn't see it even if it was there that we we should I put
these I want everyone to enjoy them oh well how about
here on the sidewalk there's even about waiting for them Oh
perfect but the bottom must be celos oh yes I'll get
some fresh smoke be a minute Oh Miss Marple I'm so glad
you're here do sit down I wanted to invite you to
Bunny's birthday party she would love to have you there oh
thank you every one of the parties is there anything I can do to
help I'll be
helping on that tea miss marple I'll be I'll be honest you smell
well you'll be invented and spend the rest of the day
snoring in our chests we kept an eye on you Betty hello so the
enough is that what does it mean
oh you saw that did you
funny sports today we have no idea what it means probably
some cranky things he's been fun yes the murder game does
sound rather pleasing doesn't if you're interested in Miss
Marple feel free to drop in around 6:30 oh yes do come Miss
Marple
yes I do have to go in as many wells for my treatment I don't
know how long it's
going to take but I'll try my best Oh is your rheumatism better
why yes thank you
give it a week or two and I'll be right back and say marry me
being clever won't be the same without you yes well I will
1
miss it but I don't think my niece and nephew will be over sorry
by me leaving they've been very patient with me with
an end come tonight I believe so my nephew really dislike me
love's a
mystery but they're having dinner with the bishop it would
have been rather reassuring to have the vicar here well
he won't be alone by any means know your neighbors the
colonel miss Easterbrook first oh no no well Clara
ahem wouldn't pass up an opportunity like this and young
Edmund was two beautiful young ladies in the house now
there's someone I can do without and Philippa says he's just a
layabout he is but she said it's just an excuse
for him to not get a real job and work for living to make the
bigger for me
just lovely yes he was so flattered that you noticed them he
brought the original
cutting back from Devon the dark Valley he was born there
deaf environments there's nothing quite like there yes
well I must be going I hope everything is fine for you all tonight
what a nice one look at that oh yes a
murder will take place here in 6:30 if it were the kind of game
or something it
would be very boring for all of you we're made of sterner stuff
than you think Miss Marple but miss Blacklock
if there's going to be a murder there has to be a victim and if I
were you what I've been thinking about is who is
going to be murdered you
you like what I do miss mag not yet oh just thank you very
much me too
the eat whale is not quite perfect and examining them I would
be patting the
pate not my pate de foie gras hehehe delicious oh it was a gift
it was reforms I was saving that for a special occasion you may
tell me two new sandwiches I made it I was rather
1
thinking cheese is cheese
well we rather like it can I go now
yes thank you uh are you going out tonight Mitzi I am doing a
few things in
the dining room and then I lock myself up in my room well
before you lock yourself up could you mind letting our
guests in I'm planning on locking the front door this evening I
am everything here cooking pocket watch that bottle
washer what not long now aren't you
worried no why should I be well supposing this isn't a hoax
composing some maniac is going to commit about it
yes you are the last person I expected to take this seriously
well I do have a few butterflies in my stomach have a drink
relax
good morning Minos was Miss marbles comment Oh miss
Marcal does real old busybody rather softly but quite a
clever old busybody and if she's correct who's going to be the
victim no one I don't jump board it's up to my own
mortality and it slipped my mind and if it isn't that dude
someone is
going to die oh this is nonsense it could be you or worse still
me I'll very
much well it's got to be someone in this house Patrick that
times that I could throttle him and then his bunny Oh Tim
Bobby perish the thought I've seen you driven to distraction by
her before now we've been friends for years at times she is
irritating but no no what a horrible thought on a happier note it
could be
missing who gets the chop she gets on my nerves it's not a
good enough reason to murder her do another puzzle to me
who is she
where does she come from you know exactly who she is and
where she comes from we only have her word for it as do
1
i with you Patrick but mother wrote to you asked if we could
stay here how do I know it isn't
Audrey I see what you mean but it wasn't I'm sure about you
and pass it the same way I'm sure about for the buck well
though well it's all gonna take place here at 6:30 tonight
because room nassim you look fine I suppose this is the
crazy story that he doesn't make any sense it's what we're
planning to commit a murder while I'm at the newspaper
pharmacy you're right tulip it's got to be a madman what about
a madwoman one of the police haven't been around
here I shouldn't think for a moment but they take it very
seriously do you well of course not it's too silly for words
you don't want to show yourself what I am it's a joke or just
someone who wants
an excuse for a drink so let's forget it shall we Lawrence I see
it's really getting on top of you now isn't it no it is not but
you keep going on about it and I have [ __ ] yeah did you
understand my
goodness the Ducks I forgot to lock them up have you been
outside like that
without a coat dr. Robinson would be
berry not and I'm not trying I shan't tell him that you please
don't do me the
death of me I'm I'm going to go and lock up the Ducks I'll do it
no no Philippa
you've been at work all day please relax I'll go no I'd rather do
it by myself I
noticed that you say discreetly in the background afraid of
getting your hands dirty [Music]
pardon me if you're trying to be funny
[Music]
get anyone please it wasn't you
something else honest we were just
passing Letty arena yes is that right yes that's right
1
you see we were in the car and I turned to Edmond who drives
much too fast you
know it's him look with passing little paddocks letting you
never forgive us if
we didn't stop by isn't that right everything wait what did you
then say what a good idea that's
right so here we are how nice of you to drop in Clara were just
passing and they
decided to stop by and see how we were doing Oh this morning
you said they rebounded Colin I must have noticed it well now
that you
are here totally unexpected Patrick let's all have a drink drink
yes of course sherry mrs. McMahon why thank you Edmund yes
please well Philippa you
looked very business this morning do you got even more hectic
after you left you two have been having secret meetings egg
hatching something there's nothing secret about it or not
hatching anything no no but by no means you see I had to
call I died as always how many honey some honey you for mrs.
no mrs. Lucas yes that's your story
Julia yes darling I should be careful about you otherwise some
things might come up with the rest of us but consider
most peculiar dreams everyone
[Music]
the side 630 of course I'm not I
wouldn't be surprised if everyone in she thinks they go and had
it read about it this morning yes it was in the Franklin Gazette
it's done if it's going to
happen at all will be any moments now would anyone like a
cigarette
[Music]
[Laughter] [Music]
Patrick why the handkerchief well I don't suppose the police
would be very happy with me getting my fingerprints on
1
the various police they'll have to be called in mother
[Music] yeah someone see you sir walk through
the dining room why do that I have no idea how do we I'll do it
no there might
be okay I'll do it in a minute Letty are you alright yes thank you
what
happened all my teeth knocked out by this man coming around
No
[Music]
[Music]
so before I do shot to me then hipper
war then he shot himself well I suppose if they tripped he could
have shot
himself although all your now grumbling and moaning I should
watch that Edmund
spreading ham to walk I suppose he's a bit of a left-wing
intellectuals being a
bit [ __ ] with me this morning sir having to go into force talking
about our Gestapo methods it all right why do
I always get the awkward ones that you seem to attract him
once just once I'd
like to have a nice civilized lot and do as they're told in and to
my questions with a certain amount of civility not
your style I'm afraid someone up there has it out for me
sergeant and what's more that light up there are
compounding the felony well shall I reel them in there's nothing
else boring is
there fraid not soon all right everybody how'd you go I can't
believe this
investigation is being covered by
thank you that's very good of you now then if we could get on
with this
inspector this is awfully rude it's a Saturday there are lots of
jobs and
1
shopping to be done now I understand your problem mrs.
Putnam but if you will
recall a man died here last night not too far from where you're
sitting so if
it's not asking too much I'd like you to push your shopping to
back up your mind and focus on answering a few questions
questions I would've thought the route of questions asked last
night well perhaps you and I don't think the same why not
man yeah that must be it we think differently you would recall
that last
night I allowed you all to go home on the understanding that
you would answer
my questions fully well it's perfectly clear what happened last
night this man
should what's his name yeah came in here wielding this guy
intending to steal
from miss Blacklock or the rest of us fired two shots to scare us
shrimp shot himself and died poor devil yes I understand your
bit Mariah well
yes well I hope not all your thoughts are as obvious as that
now perhaps I could get off this miss Blacklock oh I'm sure were
perfectly
willing to answer any questions you have inspector however
you must ins understand it's been quite a shock to us
no I understand that miss Blacklock but you see for a start he
didn't break in no locks broken in no windows forced a
Spectre you could have come into the back door that's how I
came in and as I was saying before Miss Marple
interrupted me there's your very bad habit of leaving the doors
unlocked for all and sundry to
come and go as they please well I locked the front door if for
once everyone in the village does it leaves
them open I mean foolish very foolish I suppose I must have
left the back door open when I went to lock up the Ducks
1
last night you said you knew miss Rudy Schertz hardly new
inspector his father
owned a small hotel in Montreal I spent quite a few years in
Switzerland helping to nurse my sister back to health and I
had a the occasional mirror there recently I have lunch at the
Met in him wells spa and hotel and he was there he
approached me said he recognised me he was here to get a
thorough grounding in the hotel business well I must
mention inspector that I know that collection of who he was
however he called on me here a few days later he's
been here before yes because he asked for some money
that's quite right he came here with some story about how his
father had been taken seriously ill and he needed money
for some air fare well I believed he was lying because of his
father was in the hotel business surely
his family could afford the fare well I told him I had no intention
of giving him money and what surprised me most is
he didn't put up a fight he just left like a laugh do you think him
I've come here purely to you look around I suppose
that's what he must have been doing I wouldn't have done him
very good I only keep a few pounds in the house valuables
nothing just some bits and pieces jewelry or silver the silver is
nothing
but reasonable Mitty was polishing at the other night not touch
it is nothing
to use great police officers eg the day where I come from
negation what I do not Rick you understand if she always like
this I was
in big dining room with the shots we got
as you think and a very good alibi it is perhaps too good on the
surface now sit
down and try to remember that I'm not too keen on the history
on let me say
1
this oh I don't want to be me anymore than you knew as a very
good football
match on the milchester that I very much like to go to but other
things are more
pressing miss black we established that you knew Rudy Schertz
excuse me
inspector are you doing - you didn't mention this last night well
you rather neglected me and I did
show up after their action took place rather like turning to the
end of a book
to see you the killer ease well as now she doesn't work because
that's cheating I don't normally like you don't turn
into the last page to find out who it is do you resort to those
tactics inspector only if I could but you said you knew
Rudy Schertz yes I had to go to the Royal spa and Magnon
Wells for my
treatment for rheumatism he made up my bill ah I see yes and
there were one or two discrepancies that I couldn't help but
notice of course and as they say in business you could tell
he was Alma make as soon as I pointed them out he apologized
profusely but we
both knew did you ever report him there was nothing I could
actually
well he does seem to have been a bit of a villain oh no more
soon Swiss police are doing a check up on him right now
I'd like you all to take up the exact positions you were in last
night now as close as possible that is when the shots
were fired inspector would you like me to leave if I was coming
up the drive so you were outside when the shots were fired
yes I came in through the back door and let Mitzi in from the
dining room as we both came in here tell you what you can
do I want you to keep an eye on her I don't want her banging
about the game
1
lights went off the flash light came on and it landed on you but
then I put my
hands up so high like this well he couldn't complain it back now
could he I thought he was going to shoot me
you're miss Blacklock Smith well yes hmm
now that he's the sort of answer I like it's full of confidence you
are miss
black Watson ease it's just that I don't see what my relationship
to aunt Lindsey has to do with this may I suggest say believe
me to figure
that out in any case I'm trying to figure out who you are you
can check up on it if you like I think I know your
mother lives in the South of France right she's been left with
some time it suits her health thank you mrs. the light fell on
you
Nicks yes I was totally dazzled I couldn't see anything I was
frightened to dead I
heard a God's will sound his voice now you have it all that long
return to this
country is that right that is true my husband was in the
Diplomatic Service he
was abroad when he died then I returned with my beautiful son
Edmund where were
you abroad that is my intern who was there in the trade
delegation I don't see what all these different
questions have to do with this if my knowledge of geography
hasn't entirely deserted me
Taran's not terribly far from Switzerland isn't it excuse me
inspector just what are you
insinuating good luck on your next well yes it did thank you
don't you have any more of
your questions no mrs. Ames the light never fell man
you now did it no you were facing the door that's right was it
possible to make anything out
1
about this man it was very dark I could really see anything
mmm how long ago did your husband die
what is that got to do with this I'm merely trying to figure out
when in why you came to live here I still don't see
what the relevance is doesn't it strike any of you as all that
practically all of you here are new to chipping Cleghorn
it never occurred to me until now it's all don't I was offered a
job here a few
months ago we're starting the god of the dies halls I'm a
trained horticulturist very nice a gardener now Miss Bona today
but if you could tell me what you remember if anything I'd
greatly appreciate it you are in a great
position to see miss Blacklock and the gunman had the lights
been on so can you
tell me what you remember seeing before the lights went off
before yes and then
I'd like to know what you remember seen after no no dear I was
holding the
cigarette box I've been handing them round oh right she was
holding the
cigarette box I'm sorry about that muffled what then a flash
from the torch no it was
probably the cigarette box we always keep it polished see and
then the guns
fired at plenty you saw the gun fire fire I see why would anyone
do that
thank you Miss Bunner he should be arrested funny he's dead
right imagine lucky now
you were by the door having a few drinks whatever you say
but you were by the door no I was by the door but he told me
to
move away from it after the first two shots were fired you
brushed past him and I tried to trip them up that's what
1
you think he felt yes I suppose so then after that you went out
to him in the
fuses yes but I did mend them I simply switch the fuses around
it was quicker and easier that way it was easier for me
of course I knew exactly where the fuse box was how to open it
which circuits were affected and I mean you Oh miss
Simmons brother you're miss black box nephew no I
understood that you were
second cousins in spectrum Patrick's mother is my first cousin
how long have
you been living here so the three of you have only known each
other since June
and July of this year well I didn't know them as children
inspector hmm can you take up your position at the wall please
well that was rather narrow wasn't it I was extremely fortunate
yeah that wasn't
too painful now was it can you go now you can but do all stain
live in the
drunk you don't take any sudden and unexpected holiday
inspector you haven't questioned me
but I understood that you didn't chips allowed to the action
took place well
think that I was lying think that I was Rudy Schertz accomplice I
could have used the lights and locked midsi in the
dining room hit about for the block for a while I know the layout
of the house isn't turned up but it was all over in
that case you are under arrest but I was lying in that case
you're free to go I'm
disappointed inspector you're having a date with me and you
with me Miss Marple I'll question you we're not ready now
you're all ready to go I'll be talking to you all again very soon
miss
Blacklock I'd like you to stay now miss
1
Blacklock yes cards on the table time I I'm afraid I don't
understand inspect
that you do someone tried to kill you last night oh no no
inspector I think there's no
doubt of it what well I hope we might figure that fact it's really
shirts
wanted to kill me then why would he put an advertisement in
the paper what makes you think it was Rudy Schertz well it
was wasn't it he did put the ad in the Franklin today well there
you go
inspector it sort of clues my point if your t-shirts wanted to
murder me why didn't he wait behind a hedge and pop me
off when no one was about someone could have put him up to
it put him up to it someone who wants you dead and was
willing to pay really [ __ ] to do the job you see I'm not so sure
his death was an
accident how could it be anything else he tripped and he shot
himself no supposing there was something else
and they assumed he had done his job and killed wouldn't it be
safer to shoot Rudy Schertz and make sure that the
police couldn't catch him and tell us the truth I see your point
inspector so
you agree with me no no I don't because why why would
anyone want to murder me I hope you might
that I've no enemies that I can think of and I'm on friendly
terms with everyone in the village it's just too ridiculous
who gives you money when you die is this really necessary
inspector please miss
Blacklock indulge me answer the question Patrick and Julia I
see but I must add
that small annuity and all the furniture goes to miss bunny so I
suppose she becomes a suspect as well frankly I'm not worth
murdering
1
there's not much to leave nevertheless all three of them stand
to gain if you die and none of them would harm a hair
on my head you'd be surprised what people will do for money
really inspector I find this conversation extremely distasteful
you are accusing
people then it is me people I will trust yes with my life have you
got anything
of a great value nothing unusual nothing out of the ordinary
those girls you're
wearing they are priceless oh but only to me they belong to my
sister Charlotte I love her dearly and I
wear them all the time they and I don't expect you to
understand this for one minute inspector keep me in touch with
her I like to think I'm not insensitive but I still think someone is
trying to
kill you please come back so if you'd
merely been trying to frighten you and everyone else he could
have just shot his guy into the ceiling but faked the
clock strikes the half-hour everyone turns to it the lights go off
the door
swings open and give me that gun don't worry two shoots
pieces of potato
what's this about well I was just thinking about how this young
man could
have possibly been in three places at once fusing the lights low
humidity in
the dining room and opening the door with gun in one hand
and torch in the other I had to put it down open the door
pick the gun out laughter he must have been a very athletic
young man
good point Miss Marple inspector have you ever considered
that Rudy Schertz
may have had an accomplice you see would you like my job
miss marple well guest
1
inspector but I'd never make policemen you think not I'm not
tall enough well I
started on this whole charade trying to prove my theory but
someone is still trying to kill miss Blacklock see
perhaps now you'll believe it's not just the rantings of an
hysterical old cop someone who's trying to kill you and it
could happen any time now just because Miss Marple agrees
with you doesn't mean to say you're right I'm trying to save
your life I believe so too somewhere there is a
reason and you know it it may be hidden deep inside you and
we've gotta bring an act oh there's no reason I'm sure of it
please think what miss Blacklock don't you stand to inherit
millions it's
marble miss butter was telling me the other day at the Bluebird
coffeehouse trust bunny I feel have to do something
about that why have you been keeping something from me it's
nothing really it doesn't concern this case I do in
fact it's most unlikely to happen do I have to go to Miss Marple
Laura miss fauna for the details
Miss Marple is referring to randall goedler swills randall goedler
randall goedler here's the financier
very flamboyant he'll was a genius in city he was I was his
personal secretary
for nearly 20 years he made millions and it couldn't have
happened without you Oh
why Miss Marple you see bad fun why don't you tell the
inspector I'm so
sorry miss Blacklock I didn't mean to be rude no no well she's
right I in his
early days I loaned randall goedler some money everything I
had he was up against it all to step away from losing
everything he works for and he did it I'm more or less became
a junior partner when he died he left a
1
fortune to whom to his wife L in trust for her in her later years
nothing to do
with the shooting how can it Rudy Schertz hardly you mean it
let alone around the girl though and as well was
never made public it can be looked up in Somerset outs how
does he'll feel towards you Oh Belle
and I haven't seen each other in years but we were always
great friends miss Butler told me she's been a real help
well that's true that was never very healthy but Randall said
she doubt the
result and I wouldn't be surprised if she did but you see the
thing is recently she's had trouble remembering
anything or anyone oh I should go and see her poor Belle but
Scotland is so far away so if she
dies the money goes to you well most of it what happens to the
money if you
don't it goes to Pip and Emma who yes it does sound quite
funny doesn't it
Randall had a sister named Sonya there a falling out when she
married when she married a man called Dmitri sab Fortis
he sounds Greek but he wasn't mid European of somewhere
around there well he was very handsome a real rough
Randall hated him so he cut Sonya out of his will quite right
inspector but it didn't really
matter because Sonya was wealthy in her own right rambling
Bell's lawyers encouraged them to put someone else in
well in case I died before Belle very acceptable the last contact
they had
from Sonya was alleged to Belle stating that Sonya had given
birth to twins and was deliriously happy - Emma where is
Sonya now Oh last we heard she was in Eastern Europe
how old would a pip enema be now about 25 or 26 somewhere
around there well
1
they must be found have you any idea what they look like there
were never any photographs what
about Sonia well she was temperamental dark
and extremely tri-tip and a man a penny
mom or Sonia inspector you've said she married this rogue
Dmitri Stanford Asst he could have spent through all her money
she would stand to
gain you died for bail hmm Dmitri what - yes so there are at
least four people
who would stand to gain from your death miss Blacklock oh but
now you can discount Patrick and Julia now I die before bell
girls only
get a pittance I don't think I'll be discounting anybody at this
point and I wanted to
borrow you just a minute it's eat what
you want policeman everybody relatives in this country any
family my family's dead I
understood they were sent to Siberia who told you that miss
butter so you
have no no brother or something I am alone yeah no relatives a
distant
cousins English perhaps at some point
I'm going to need to see all of your papers calm down it's your
training and
I'm obliged to do you think I do this
good you're arresting her are you inspector she stole a cup
put your hands down and on the mood for this about bunny
your favorite cup sunny
there were six originally in the room but then now there are
only five they were in the kitchen and she wouldn't let
anyone go in there I did not steal anything you stupid old
woman I do not
care I not steal nothing I won't be angry Missy did you break
one because I
1
am in your stead I apologize for
outburst inspector regrettable but she's always like this what
afraid she can't go she won't she's such an explosive
person and a liar you should check up on her inspector who
wouldn't be surprised if we knew the
truth about her she does make excellent cop yes yes please
inspector
No thank you might like to take another look around would you
mind showing me the rest of it no I think it white not
many friendships that have lasted as long as yours miss hunter
she saved me really oh that can't be don't you
believe me well of course miss Bunner she always tends to take
people on their
way which is too trusting working for a
mogul they're all of those years yes how do you know that you
told me what poem
is funner the one that says a sad affliction bravely borne what's
an
affliction i sad fliction all those
years looking at her sister only she would have died
tuberculosis wasn't it
she gave up everything everything nobody appreciates or not
like I do and that
Patrick oh he's always taking advantage of her such a nice
young man no no he
keeps borrowing money from money and then never paying it
back it wouldn't surprise me if he put Rudy Schertz
coming up here they would probably share the proceeds so we
can take give money all the money he gave back to her well
it's not always easy for them you know what's my spinner here
on this side
board there's a cigarette it is only the
young people who smoke in this house it's a beautiful piece
what a shame this
1
is a beautiful piece to Dresden we have to there's the Shepherd
and the shepherdess is in the spare room this is
the shepherdess miss Bunner Oh oh yes it is everything is
getting so
much lately so sorry no worries Oh miss butter I'm so very
sorry the pilots have died I must have forgotten to water them
but no wonder
well I'll bring you plenty more and I think I can get a man to
repair this so you'll never know it had been damaged
that's wonderful thank you well I must be going must you it's so
nice having someone to
talk to who understand yes well I have some shopping to do oh
that that one's stuck you can't go through this one
piece used to be in front of it that way everyone knew they
couldn't go through very sensible yes this used to be two
rooms you know and Philippa suggested we move this over
here to integrate them
eroom's law hmm very nice well is there key yes the builders
are very sensible
there's one key that fits all the locks in the downstairs room but
there's every other key fits the locks in every
bedroom very sensible very sensible indeed can't let me show
you but it gets
pretty stuck so you have to push so so
sorry missed that clock Miss Marple I'm sorry Letty it was my
fault I was explaining
how we were integrating rooms and Philip on the sideboard it's
my fault miss
Blacklock I do have an insatiable curiosity no no I'm sorry I'm
afraid
with everything that's been going on I'm a little overwrought I
understand my nerves have been a
little on edge too oh well you see this door hasn't been opened
until they meet
1
these two rooms into one and I believe that was at the end of
the last century hmm miss fauna my sergeant has found
your missing coffee cap in the yard in the bushes by the duck
pond wonderful I
should have had you look for it in the first place you being an
inspector yes it's all rather routine we find missing
much air occurs as well but no what was my coffee cup doing
down by the duck
pond well using my powers of deduction I
would say someone throughout that could you tell me why
there's oil in it miss Blacklock
I can inspector the hinges on this door
have been recently oiled what so who
would open silently yes so anyone in this room could have been
the accomplice
why should they need to use this door well whoever he is he's
the only one who
knows that this door can be used and he may try to use it again
let's hope I'm
here when he does I really must be
getting back to the station would you like to ride mama well
Thank You inspector yes please all
right creatures must be wondering what's going on say
goodbye miss marble goodbye
Lachi lagi it's me Clara
I forgot to leave the honey
you [Applause] one thing I like to say is that
production costs of fair amount of money freeze
therefore we have this nice little red bull that says donations on
it we
appreciate them after the show you'll find it over by the box
where you can also write notes for the cat was a
lovely birthday present lucky I'm sorry bunny I would have
gotten more if I could have gotten to the shops yesterday
1
I'll get you something on Monday buddy
if only the inspector let us get away earlier I really am sorry oh
my about the party as well could we
know that's that I said after the shooting and the questions
there's no there's no need for us to go on that's
why I had to cancel I don't see why we couldn't have just gone
ahead with it I
mean a man none of us knew came here trying to rob us nearly
killed on sledge and just because he got what he deserved
we decide the poor bunny house to suffer me Oh believe me I
can be quite
sensitive sometimes I mean I had noticed the way you had
been spent in ham I've been looking at each other What's
Wrong Patrick jealous Oh careful
darling you know what they say about the lady who don't
protest questions bunny
yes why don't you take something for it I'm quite capable of
withstanding it of
course you are but why suffer well I can't find my aspirins any
minute
well I have some aspirin on my bedside table no thank you I
shall I shall I go no the
least I could do was get them myself you
really do know well don't you miss Blacklock she surprised me
this time going on so long headache it's a shame
we couldn't have the party she's been looking forward to it so
much I mean
where's the harm
Oh cheer her up to no end only a teeny weeny party last you
made me feel
terrible I'll buy you a milk stout down at the one time oh go
away excellent
Patrick go get Julie until Mitzi will have the cake control oh no
he's quite
1
all right he loves to school the fees well they're obviously a bit
of a problem then there is something I have something to tell
you that may help ease your worries they're nothing I can't
cope with I know you're very independent but I I can't
help you much now perhaps soon please don't worry I want you
to know that I spoke to my
solicitor yesterday and I changed my will apart from Bunny's
legacy everything goes to you me you can't do that I don't
want it well it's all in hand but what about having continued
they have no claim on me besides I don't think it's a
bad idea at all for people to know I'm changing my will why
why are you telling me this well
because well there's a very good reason for what I'm doing if I
die now you
won't get much but if I live you could inherit to fortune die
you're not going
to die well you never know
[Music]
nothing's the matter I'm sorry miss Blacklock I guess some
trouble isn't far behind
I certainly hope it is I've had enough of this weekend it's my
fault we decided
to bring the little gifts each we thought it would be nice please
do sit
down thank you but we won't be saying of course well we're
going to have some
cake with tea so every Tuesday wait thank you well looks as if
we're going
to have a party after all oh well it's okay kitty I should hope
there won't be any more pleasantries do
you have to we'll all try to get how can we it's by no means
over I'm afraid
you're right Edmund is the inspector at least satisfying I don't
think he is he thinks someone paid Rudy Schertz to
1
kill Anza let's eat oh you brought that up Patrick good god that
puts all of us under suspicion yes yes how long were
you out in the drive Miss Marple we only have your word for
that you were coming up when the shots were fired high on his
list really and you seem to get on so well with him
Patrick why don't you go see see if buddy's ready of course I
think it's all over - so why
don't we just try and forget it and enjoy ourselves shall we
hmm she's coming cake and tea by the way Letty did
you see the honey oh yes thank you very much mrs. Farren
ham I almost forgot I
had coming through the back door early and I couldn't find you
anywhere how silly of me was a game to leave it
Edmund that I had already been almost homeless I realized
well mother I'm sure we could have left it into some other
time it was your idea though Edmund well Mitsy does use
honey in the special cake
you see well this is pretty miss butter for your birthday
I saw it's only handkerchiefs well
[Music] and look some honey I'm afraid it's only
half a jar the beads have been very busy is here Patrick may
have some water
oh you'll soon feel better
what's a magnificent cake I give myself each time I put an
extra special
ingredient in a deep it's more flat board I guess it doesn't cut it
then
Julie can you help me go on bunny while dying to try it oh don't
forget to wait
make a wish bunny what's your buddy if I were you I'd wish
him dead oh if you weren't my sister
[Music]
it's too late delicious
1
we'll think of something but bound to find out it can't last much
longer don't worry don't worry for God's sake
Patrick will achieve nothing by panicky you will help me won't
you haven't I I've done everything you've asked I know
you've been wonderful I need you well there's no going back no
I did it
all for you how are you this morning
we're fine thank you Oh making progress Sam we're not
interrupting anything are we oh no no no no not at all well well
I
think we'll go feed the ducks or something mr. Samuel yes
were you aware
that you've got some lipstick on your neck oh I mean I didn't
um it was a bit
wild last night and I didn't hardly blame you yeah me Miss
simian oddly well the dogs
missing yes you work in the pharmacy down the local hospital
right that's
correct thank you now there are more pressing things I'm afraid
of any questions
obvious reasons I can miss black look but you had another very
narrow escape I
find it harder and harder to accept your reasoning how could I
possibly be the intended victim any one of us could have
eaten that cake first I know that oh well and the notion that mr.
Fenton's
hands honey is poison it's malicious I agree then how was the
cake poison did
Missy it wasn't the cake it was the my aspirin exactly your
aspirin the ones
you normally keep by your bed someone wants you dead very
very bad I'm frightened inspector
and last perhaps now help me find the murderer purposefully
but
1
non-cooperative I just couldn't believe that anyone would well
there's no friendship with
money since I'm afraid tell me did you know that Belle kobler's
condition has
deteriorated recently I knew she wasn't well I understand from
the Scottish
police that she's become seriously ill oh I should go and see her
hotel
it could be poor miss Blacklock they are
uppermost in my mind they're more a combination of their
parents we're trying to kill you Dimitri Stafford is
the father you said he was a rogue what do you go so far as
murder to get money
I'll do anything you say good do you have any pictures of them
oh
well are you supposing that Pippo never look like Dimitri oh
yeah oh well the
other way around oh well there used to be this old photo album
somewhere in the house I haven't
seen it in years it might take a while to find would you like any
home oh no no thank you let me try first I believe you
wanted to see me yes mrs. Ames please sit down this time
series if you lie miss Ames you're going
to cover your tracks very very high yes you do stop lying you
know what I'm
talking about everyone says the world is changing we have
more freedom nowadays than we ever have well inspector
Craddock you try
being an unmarried mother well I don't think that would [Music]
so you invented a husband how do you think that it'd knock
luck with react if she knew the truth well she strikes me as the
sympathetic
and understanding type what's more she's no fool I was
sneaking suspicion she's
1
already started to guess the truth that's why why one that's
your son no
foolish you'll find out eventually maybe if I were you I would tell
him and
everyone else well I couldn't live with it but it is up to you how
did you find
out we do a lot of routine work you've been checking up on me
sort of you make
it sound so casual well it is it but it is puzzling puzzling and it's
funny
son's birth certificate yes thanks well
that's me now that's what the problem is you see we can't find
a birth certificate for anyone with that name at
least am i interrupting
you're just in time mrs. Ames that I just finished for now did
you find any
pictures of something I would have a chance to look yet is that
is that it oh
yes that's Bell is it you beautiful well it's game oh that's a place
in Scotland
I'm afraid the writing is rather faded tell me one there's one of
de metrio sir
Dmitry Sonjia Dmitry Antonia
well so so yeah somebody got to be Zen
if you didn't pay miss Blacklock my goodness it looks as if
they've been ripped out
oh they'll be from me to my sister if you don't mind I'd like to
skip through these well oh there might be something
about a leave can she certainly not well
I'll go after her catch up to her you might tell her that she won't
get any further than the bus station Oh
inspector oh my little sleuth you're just in time some people
say I'm like a bad penny but
1
not me Miss Marple not me well I'm passed miss Blacklock that
girl
of hers Mitzi was herring down the tribe like a maniac she is
rather peculiar isn't she yes well now to join you you
might be able to help me with a little research well I must talk
to miss Blacklock oh it
won't take that long I didn't think you'd be able to resist the
opportunity to go through someone's up old letters Oh
inspector that's not
like me they're from miss Blacklock to
her sister Charlotte if you find anything that might be helpful as
well as some interesting do read it out to me
ah now here is something that has been
mentioned before he refers to her disfigurement Charlotte
Thanks it's not as bad as you
think it is and you shouldn't lock yourself away I wonder what it
was miss
disfigurement well I don't suppose it was anything much does it
say specifically though well then why should
she lock herself away in my experience most women are
extremely very
how would you react if you had a mole at the end of your nose
huh well I wouldn't have to look at it oh yeah but most
women would hide themselves behind a veil here cuz again it's
not as bad as
you think it is like I wish you got more nobody notices it you
see pure band did you ever find any
photos of some young golden now I'm fraid not it's almost as
though they've
all disappeared rather conveniently but it says in this letter that
she had a
violent temper violent temper and miss Blacklock says she's
dark and attractive
1
makes you think does it it does here's something so when you
have this habit
when she's angry clenching and unclenching her fists now
inspector who
does that remind you of miss that you
don't miss much do you well Julia Simmons has this habit of
doing it when she's agitated and I've been keeping a very
careful watch on that young woman I checked up on Julia
and Patrick Simmons the first police contacted their mother in
the South of France and she confirmed they're staying
here and there's no mistake well unless the woman in the
South of France isn't
their mother could she be sonia lying low until it's all over
doubtful the French police must have
checked up on they're very thorough so she's black almost
certainly it's
very frustrating we never found any photos of Sonia yes she
seems to have dropped off the face of the earth oh
here's something interesting lots of love and backup darling
this
iodine treatment made you a lot of good what does that mean
well must have been some special kind of treatment they did
back then tuberculosis wasn't it yes it is why miss Blacklock
sent her sister
Switzerland tell me something who does
that remind you of oh well it does look like flesh button hem
but but what it's
a very old photograph inspector Miss Marple you wanted to see
me yes I'm
sorry about the timing but it's about the funeral yes well I must
be getting back to the station I'll be taking these
if you don't mind I'll return them as soon as possible goodbye
ladies goodbye inspector yes my
1
nephew wanted me to ask you what him you'd like son and
Miss Manners service Oh leave tiny light was her favorite
hymn please thank you for me well of course miss Blacklock it
just
came over me what I've lost but even the last person from my
childhood and now
she's gone quite low yes I know I know
miss Blacklock nieces nephews neighbours friends there
they're all well and good
but when the last person you shared your childhood with the
last one who knew you as you truly were is gone
then you're truly alone oh I'm sorry oh
it's it's all right I have to be going not on my account I hope no
there's
something I must do goodbye miss Blacklock find Harry he's
looking for
Captain it seems as if you'd only just gone back to school I
know this may seem
a bit but it is alright with using it Harry coming in for halftime
Phillipa what's
wrong Julia shall I go I'd like you to
stick mmm Julia won't be a moment sit down I've just received
this letter
dear Aunt Betty I do hope it's alright for me to come visit you
next week I
asked Patrick but he hasn't gotten back to me my train gets in
at 6:30 on Tuesday it signs yours affectionately
Julia oh god is this real sister I was a
young woman upstairs I can explain do you see I knew it was a
stupid thing to
do but Julia my real sister didn't want to take up the job at the
local hospital here she was offered a job at the
theatre as some sort of assistant stage manager she always
was stage struck and
1
she knew mother would be furious if she took it who is the
young woman upstairs hmm
we didn't come straight back and when we first came back to
England there were friends to see parties to go to that's how I
met Julie the one
upstairs I mean we rather fell for each other at first and seeing
as though she wasn't doing anything in particular
I thought Anna marvelous idea that I was
going to tell you but I couldn't who's the young woman upstairs
[Music]
surprised you decided stay at mr. Fortas if I try to make a run
foot you'd only have caught up with me you would have
gone out ripping play go on are you going to arrest me not until
you tell us where your brother is I haven't the faintest idea this
is
some misguided family loyalty I honestly don't know honestly
that's a word I
can't imagine comes very easily to you I know how you must
feel about me but I just please your brother mr. borders
I haven't seen him since we were 3 years old when my parents
split up there was a great that I would go with my father and
pip with my mother
alright let's try something else where's your father tried to
moon when I was just old enough to take care of myself
he'd left me in Istanbul I had to work my way back here your
mother believe me
I'd love to know I've searched everywhere but she's made a
good job of disappearing I even went to Scotland to see if I
could get some information
you went to see Belle why not she's my aunt and I hope she
might be able to help me but it was no use
she's not part of this world and I got to thinking about my uncle
of course I knew he was very rich and then it
1
occurred to me the default Bell died I was probably he's all
these surviving relatives his will was I surprised
I searched everywhere for someone who even knew let's eat
bad luck but through the incredible incredible stroke of luck
I'm an extreme Patrick and his sister when the swap was
suggested I had to stop myself from sounding tarika oh I
admire your self-control and must have taken quite a lot of
effort to wait to take a potshot at me chipping leg on 87
hold on a second it's for you inspector
hello this is uh inspector Craddock Oh
keep me informed that's a disturbing development it seems
miss Marples gone missing seven hours ago I believe now
inspector all in good
time mrs. vetting ham I truly do not like policemen show you
up at my doorstep and asking me to accompany them
as a matter of fact I find it rather rude my neighbors will be oh
that's
absurd she couldn't possibly miss Blacklock come on mrs.
Benton ah why couldn't she
have seen this black ball it was because she saw you wasn't it
and but that's not
possible if miss Blacklock were to die two people stand to gain
Emma and and
you think I'm him that's too fantastic for words who told you
about hit mr.
Sveta now I have it neither has anyone else in this room heroes
inspector I've told him I am
when my mother died I was definitely funny how's it going here
to go you were
the only one that need the truth why didn't you say so because
I suspected who you were the inspector was right I was holding
back
out of family loyalty I didn't want to give you away you were all
people Philippa I am sorry
1
Leslie my mother left no money when she died I found out
myself but no governor was
seriously ill and I knew that she was leaving a lot of money
behind you had
gotten into a lot of trouble hadn't you it was my son I was
willing to help both
of you it was part of my plan to get you good books and it
worked didn't it I even changed my will in your favor
that scared me stick I thought you figured out who I wasn't you
were trying to warn me off and try to get my uncle's money you
were coming here to kill me
for it it never occurred to me even though I thought I was worn
tied into the money than you were but there it is
I'm hit and I'm glad you know you two have been seen quite a
lot of each other haven't you is it that mr. Spang hands
are struggling young writer no yeah published would very much
like to marry a wealthy woman that's not true
you cannot be already in debt up to your eyeballs losses and I
can prove it to
the bank the bookmaker go ahead but he wouldn't so so
wealthy white widow solve
all your problems wouldn't it in order for her to be wealthy miss
Blacklock had
to go first well so you decided do something about that gonna
do you see I've been great inspector aren't you and
he won't get far now I'd like to see you down to the
station now it won't take long mrs. spender mine I'm terribly
sorry you'll need to see your solicitor mr. Simmons

letter you are a clever girl Missy you look tired knees knock

well
1
you should be safe now miss Blacklock thank you you might
have told me you'd
arranged it all well then you won't have reacted the way that
you did it was a little unorthodox but it worked what if it hadn't
well I
would have been in a spot of trouble
well I hope they might have some news not the station can you
keep me informed of course thank
you good day goodbye inspector I take
liberty I do myself some of course knock
knock we have a nice little chat I need money
not for much but why are you telling me Missy I haven't got any

eye for me and you say when you look through the keyhole you

you for it ah
true I did see you in the hall with the gun in your hand you give

in prison just like you
say you were in your own country I am NOT I'd like I'll tell you
I'll tell you
why you won't do it Mitsu because everyone knows the
policeman everyone who was there on Friday knows that there
was a key in the lock so you couldn't have seen anything go
get out of my
house snap it's me Lauren danger naughty
danger buddy is that you
but bunny had to die miss Marples is this some kind of joke I'm
told I have a
little talent for mimicry the joke in the worst possible taste this
sensitivity doesn't suit you Charlotte
Charlotte is dead I am Leticia Bonnie would call you mati
instead of letting most inconvenient times at first I
thought it was a slip of the tongue I bet others did too but she
was the only one left who knew remember my dear
woman everyone knows - model names became Billy and she
referred to you as
miss maple she could have used you with the London Stock we
were all highly amused she puts you at risk every time
you got muddled and so you knew at any
moment she could give it all away you couldn't take the risk
miss Marcal Huck
Dead will you please leave
recognize it it's mine yes this one here
replaced it look the flex is frayed you can even see the bare
wire mommy put me
onto it when she showed me the cigarette burn on the
sideboard she even told us
that you were holding the base instead of a cigarette box as
you had insisted
1
you simply poured the water onto the bare wires that must
have been the flash
she saw another one of Bunny's models I was holding the
cigarette bus permit she
had one all the others were on the clock you simply pour the
water onto the bare
wires and fuse the lights very effective
imagination is marvel I shouldn't let it run away with you I'm

miss
Blacklock so when your father died you took your sister to
Switzerland show the
tap TV I have the money I can't forward Helios the best place
for her hmm and yes child was cured but
then ironically Letitia died pneumonia
and with her death you saw the golden Millions slip right
through your fingers
but then it struck you you and your sister have been away from
this country
for many years you shared many similarities between the two
of you why
not swap identities with her my passwords my birth certificate
of my bank statement was all to prove that I
am Leticia Oh I even have Charlotte's death certificate you
returned to this country
Endora butter her friend Leticia had returned she
contacted her for help well if I would then Eddie deception
operative plan
would have been impossible as she would have recognized me
but she did recognize
you but when you told her about Randall gobbler in the will she
actually believed you that you deserve to inherit
1
the money and here you're lovely with someone who you share
a great deal of
affection for who could actually substantiate your deception
you took the risk good very good
it went very well until a few weeks ago when you ran into Rudy
Schertz and he
recognized you as Charlotte knowing that Belle gobbler could
die any day now and
knowing what kind of men he was it would be published that
you would inherit
Millions but he know you weren't the Titian you'd never get rid
of him you
couldn't take the risk I have my methods of dealing with
blackmailers Miss Marple
but then dusty struck he showed up here asking for airfare fine

give you the money I'm having a party for my friends put an ad
in the paper that a murder will take
place here 6:30 in this house little paddocks and you turn up I'll
fuse the
lights and we'll pretend it to hold up it will scare them system
very interesting do go on
you fuse the light as I explained went through this door quietly
along the
corridor out through this door fired two shots at yourself but
you weren't there
and how do you have for the buzz nicking my ear simple
everyone knows at the
earlobe leads profusely one cut a little snip and we were all
convinced fine go
on tell the inspector what you told me and you'll put it all down
to the Randy's senile woman because as we both
know there's no proof oh really no do you remember Bunny's
favorite

quotation a sad affliction bravely borne I knew that Charlotte
had been treated
in Switzerland Switzerland was famous for treating tuberculosis
but then I
read a letter between you Charlotte from your sister Letitia that
said [ __ ] up
dear this iodine treatment will do a lot of good now it confused
me at first but
then with a little research I discovered but the Swiss doctors
had perfected a
very special glandular operation we're going to wrap and I
assure you when the
records are checked I was Charlotte and not Leticia that was
operated on for goiter what a pity you interfere Miss
Marple and miss Blacklock
no need to hold on to me you all right Miss Marple yes thank
you all right you
can all come out now it's over
you can't believe what you put me through Edmund I had an
awful time of it I'm terribly sorry mother but I could
hardly tell you what we're up to deceive me like that well you
see I agreed to hold the inspector on the condition that
I get the facts first I'm convinced there's a great story
somewhere in all
this and that someone doesn't write a book first well now
means that come in and tell me
do I see I owe you an apology mrs.
Fenton now I'm sorry I couldn't let you in our deception but the
few people who knew viveur that's why I couldn't tell
you either but supposing I hadn't come to Edmunds rescue
admitted to being a bit well there really was no fear of
that now was there well now that you're all here I've got a little
surprise for
