Good Morning
Can I help you young lady?

Yes, Dr Laurent's office.

I'll pass him on to you
immediately Miss Caldwell.

- Is it Martha?
- Yes

Martha, what happened?
Do you need something?

Aren't you at home?
Where are you?

What? A surprise.

Your at the station,
well that is really a surprise.

Well it took your cousin Jenny's arrival,

to give you courage,
you'll have to thank her.

Martha.

Martha dear, But why?
You didn't have to come.

Are you alright?

I'm Marcus, Miss Jenny
I'm Miss Martha's driver.

How do you do Marcus.

My pleasure.

Is this all the luggage Miss?

Yes I sent the rest.
It will arrive tomorrow.

We were unbelievably lucky,
It's been a success everywhere.

But above all in Latin America
and Canada.

Look at this.

It's a recording we made on the road.

A souvenir of our tour.

As a soloist I was popular,
but our success

was due to the hard
work of the chorus also.

How is Uncle Ralph?
Is he any better?

His heart, as usual.

He suffers so doesn't he.

Poor old thing, at least here
he can relax avoid getting excited.

- Why did you stop?
- The Engine is overheating I better stop.

- Won't we be able to get home?
- It's not far.

Far enough to burn the motor out
I'll see if I can get someone to help us.

Is it always so cheerful?

No Martha, no marriage, a career and
marriage problems don't go hand in hand.

Who was it?

Unfortunately I had no luck
We'll have to keep going.

Did you meet anyone Marcus?

No why do you ask?

It's very odd,
a stranger came up to the car.

Are you sure?

Would you take off your glasses please.

May I put them on again now? The
fog can play tricks with the imagination.

Did you have a good trip Miss Jenny?
I'm Mrs Britton the housekeeper.

- I know, your irreplaceable.
- You are too kind Miss, please come in.

Rosalie, take the bags up.

It's nice to be back.

Jenny - Uncle Ralph.

Here we are all together
just the way it use to be.

- I have something for you.
- Really.

Zombies, voodoo, demons,
and witches, there's

enough here to rob
you of a month's sleep.

You are kind, it's wonderful.
It's a most appropriate gift Jenny.

- I got them in Brazil, they're very rare.
- I'm sure.

I have a surprise for you too Martha.

I found it in the house in London
amongst your fathers old papers.

You'll see it will make you happy.

Parents, children and teachers
of St. James School

"I have the honour of presenting
Miss Martha Caldwell."

Do you remember what I did at school
just to present the Christmas recital.

You were there too?

If my memory doesn't fail me,
Martha was 13 years old.

Thank you, everyone. Now I'm going to
recite a piece from Alice in Wonderland.

You must show me around.
Things must have change a lot.

I'd be glad to - Thank you.

Yes Martha and I have always
been very close, especially after...

After a great Loss,
what a terrible thing

losing both parents
in a train accident.

Her father was able to save her life,
he threw her from the window just in time.

It was really horrible.

Martha saw her parents die
among the flames.

Since then she hasn't been able to speak.

Fifteen years, and
she's never had the

courage to walk into
a railway station since.

I knew you would be able to do it, today you
have taken a most important step forward.

And along this road you must continue,
Only a strong emotion

attached to the memory of the past.

Can give you the courage you need
And help you regain your speech.

- I can guess who this is.
- Good evening everyone.

We're getting use to your lack of
time keeping - Good evening Laurent.

How are you?

Oh you don't know Jenny
Jenny this is Dr Laurent.

He's the only eligible
bachelor in town he's a

thorn in the side for all
the husbands in town.

Don't listen to your uncle
he finds the devil everywhere.

What happened?

The fuse must have blown.

Lets find some candles.

Christina you scared us - But It's my
birthday uncle, no need to be afraid.

Just because the lights went out, it was
meant as a surprise.

Thank you Martha.

Happy Birthday dear. Come on lets
see if you can blow out all the candles.

Bravo, wonderful.

- Your niece is adorable.
- Yes she is a human avalanche that child.

Since her parents returned to America
I don't know what I'd do without Martha.

I really couldn't cope
without her.

- Goodnight - It was a marvelous evening.
- See you soon I hope.

Goodnight Martha
Thank you for my birthday.

Thank you.

And such a surprise,
my first evening back.

- You should be in bed at this hour.
- Young man I know that.

But it's not not worth it, living
badly just to live a few more days.

You are a sadist.

- Okay but don't forget to take the drops.
- No, I won't.

Goodnight Doctor - Goodnight.

Goodbye Martha, I'm very happy for you.
See you soon.

Is that you Ralph?

Marcus?

Marcus are you there?

Have you seen Miss Jenny? I knocked
on her door, but there was no answer.

Morning! Morning Martha.

I'll leave her with you for a couple
of hours if you don't mind.

Look what the pharmacist gave me.

Isn't he cute
just look at his tail.

Good Morning here is your mail.

- Hold still Kitty!
- Here's a letter for you.

- Hey! Don't Do that!
- Kitty!!

Where are you Kitty?

Stop being so naughty.

Where are you hiding?

Ah there you are.

She's a very naughty cat.
Don't you think so Martha?

I will have to train her.
No you don't, you naughty creature.

Oh there's paint on his foot.
He's covered in red paint - Look!

It's all over my dress and hands.

What's wrong Martha?

Let's begin again.

Not one of you have seen
or heard anything.

Write that down.

According to the Medical Examiner,

The murder took place between 11pm
and midnight.

You were the last to leave
the house doctor.

Yes it was almost 11pm,
I remember looking at my watch.

What time was it when you returned
with the car?

I don't know precisely.

When I put the car in
the garage it was late.

What did you do afterwards?

- I went to sleep in the servants quarters.
- Notice anything suspicious? - No Nothing.

- Only that I...
- Go on you have nothing to lose.

Well It's hard to say - Well?

I'm sure I saw a car
parked with it's lights out.

Were you able to
recognise this car?

- Yes it was my car Inspector.
- May I ask why you returned to the house?

I realised I had left my bag
in the entrance way.

Then I saw the lights were
out and thought everyone

was sleeping,
I didn't want to disturb anyone.

So I returned to my car
and went back to town.

Therefore your bag must still be here,
please look for it.

Do you agree
with that statement?

It isn't true about
all the lights being out,

Mrs Britton's for example was still on
I saw it.

And the doctor looked
right up at that window.

Mrs Brittion looked like she
was waiting for him Doctor

Laurent Got out his car
and went into the garage.

After a while he came out,
he signaled her to

come down,
she refused and turn out her light.

That's all Inspector.

- Have you anything to add Mrs Britton?
- No I will not believe this nonsense.

- These insinuations.
- Inspector.

Everything's alright, the bag
really was in the entrance way.

Are you suspecting anyone
present Inspector? No professor.

I'm convinced the murderer is a maniac
Perhaps a sex-maniac!

What would you have us believe Inspector?

Last Night, three hours before Miss Jenny
another young lady was murdered.

A short distance from here
and her body was thrown in a ditch.

"Let us Pray" "Oh Lord we
implore you in your fatherly Love"

"have mercy on the soul of your servant
Jenny Ascot."

"And grant that free from the stains of
her mortal life."

Mrs Britton quick.

Miss Martha! What's the Matter?

Doctor what's happening?

Someone was here,
staring at Miss Caldwell.

Doctor! Come here!

Look at this! What can it mean?

That person probably lost it.

Do you realise doctor that Jenny Ascot and
that poor student were both fair-haired.

If my hypothesis is correct, whoever it is
has now set his sights on Miss Caldwell.

I only saw him for a second,
but his eyes are

like a madman or
more likely a drug addict.

Two women are already dead and I want
to avoid Martha Caldwell being the third.

- Martha!
- I'm sorry but your vulnerable.

You must be very careful
We will do our best to protect you.

It's strange, It's clearly
a black magic symbol.

You see the goat according to demonic
tradition represents Satan.

Therefore I'd say It's a kind
of incarnation of the devil.

No dear also today.

The cult of the devil has never ceased,
It's strange

but devil worshippers
have always flourished.

There are people with hell in their souls.

Do you remember the case of the
witches of bel-air a few years ago?

It was a sudden reaction,
no one knows why but

sometimes evil explodes
in unknown manifestations.

I could be wrong but the man who lost that
thing is a devil worshiper.

I'm sorry to have
disturbed you Miss Caldwell.

But it's a rule and
we have to abide to it.

The baggage arrived
today on the 4.15pm train.

There you see it's addressed to
Jenny Ascot.

I'm afraid but since the owner is deceased

I must ask for your co-operation,
and that you

check through the contents
before taking the case.

Go on.

Well now miss is everything in order?

I must ask you to leave a receipt please
sign here.

Miss Caldwell!

Martha! Hello,
did you come to see me?

I was just writing about you and Kitty
I'm so happy to see you,

They always leave me alone
during afternoon service.

You know Kitty disappeared today
and I haven't any idea where he has gone.

Martha! I was just getting into my car
when I saw you running into the church.

What Happened?
You seem so upset?

And how come your alone
without Marcus or Mrs Britton?

You've been very silly.

Aren't you aware of the risk your taking
on no condition are you to leave the house.

Well come on Martha, I'll take you home.

Goodbye Christina,
my regards to your uncle.

Come back soon Martha.

Look I have a present for you
I bought it with my own savings.

Do you like Snoopy?

Promise that you'll always take
him with you.

I was just about to go to the
police station a little while ago.

Now I don't know if I should tell you
this Martha but,

Something occurred to me.

When Jennys murder was reconstructed,
there was something that didn't make sense.

Just a little thing that could change
the entire course of the investigation.

Sorry I left you alone,
I went to buy cigarettes

and when I returned
I couldn't find you.

The fog had come down
so thick it was impossible

to see anything,
please accept my apologies.

Alright Marcus
I'll go with Miss Caldwell.

Now listen to me carefully Martha.

I remember very well, that when I left
the garage that night I closed the gate.

And it locked behind me,

You see the gate has an automatic release
therefore how did the murderer ever get in.

Precisely there wasn't any signs
of anyone trying to break the lock.

Therefore someone had to
open the gate from the inside.

But that would mean...
No it can't be...

Unfortunately the inspector is away
I think he returns late this evening.

If It's something urgent you can tell me
that's what I'm here for.

No. It's nothing urgent
I'll telephone him tomorrow morning.

By the way doctor,

It appears there's news about the sex
maniac who is on the loose around here.

This way Professor.

Look.

What do you make of it?

I'd say they had a Black Mass here.
Here's the proof, the Black wafer.

The footprints indicate only one person.

The stranger who spied
on my niece at the cemetery?

Exactly.

I had you come here to give your opinion.

It's very important considering your
knowledge in this field.

What relation can the two separate
crimes possibly have?

Usually the satanists kill women,

You see inspector, woman are symbolically
tied to the mother of Christ,

Therefore if they don't succumb to Satan,
they're

considered vile beings,
the ideal victims for sacrifices.

I get it he's not to be considered a sex
maniac, he's something worse - Inspector.

I guessed it - Morphine
You have to watch Miss Martha Closely.

No thank you.

Isn't Doctor Laurent coming tonight?

The police discovered the hiding place
of the murderer this afternoon.

He seems to have disappeared into
thin air.

Just like a demon.

I understand, you mean the garage door was
closed but the killer wasn't able to enter.

Therefore we will have
to presume that someone

maybe even Jenny opened
the door from the inside.

Hello.

Hello.

Hello.

Who is it?

Whoever it was didn't say anything
and then they hung up.

It must have been a wrong number.
Well it's bedtime.

It's getting late dear
would you mind fixing my medicine.

Mrs Britton, I advise you to close
everything, including doors and windows.

There they are all locked now
you can go to sleep if you like.

Oh your right, the garage.

I hate to tell you but I cant take you
shopping as the car is broken down.

- Your telling me this at this hour.
- It's the carburetor.

I wasn't aware of it until
a few minutes ago.

Alright I'll go, you guard the house
and try to fix the car.

I'll try, goodnight.

Good-day Mrs Britton.

- Good-day to you.
- Everything back to normal at the villa?

- Is Miss Martha okay?
- Anything else you need? - No thank you.

Please excuse me for saying this, As Mayor
of this town, I must clear up a few things.

Have you seen how fear
has paralysed this town.

There isn't a soul out on the streets.

Anyway that inspector
seemed to me..well I bet

you have a better idea
who committed these crimes.

Yes I have an idea who it may be,
but who doesn't.

Why don't you ask Father Martin's opinion?

Hey Mrs Britton can I come along?

I'm in a hurry, bye.

- Good evening.
- Good evening.

I've come straight here
And thought I'd surprise you both.

Has something happened Professor?

It's Mrs Britton, she went to town
earlier on her bike before breakfast

Martha was feeling ill
today and she stayed in

her room until 5pm,
when I called her for tea.

That's when she realised that Mrs Britton
hadn't come back yet.

So she came running to warn me.

It's 7.35pm,
why haven't you called the Police?

We've sent Marcus to search for her.

Perhaps she's stayed in town?

To visit someone.

Come on Martha try to calm down
you'll only make the situation worse.

What have you got on your
trousers doctor?

It's blood.
Did you hurt yourself?

Oh it's nothing, I treated a workman
who had an accident must be his blood.

Would you answer that for me please.

Yes, No I'm Doctor Laurent
You can tell me Sargent.

In the woods about 2km from here.

Yes certainly...

Martha!

Can we remove the body Mr Day?

Continue to search the woods,
put up roadblocks

and stop anyone who may
be a suspect is that clear?

He must be hidden somewhere,
for gods sake.

I'm sure we'll get him,
I bet my pension on it.

The only this is doing
is keeping us awake.

Inspector, they have a clue.

They've found a can of meat
Nothing else.

How do you explain this strange
discovery, What does it mean?

That the dogs are hungry
They've been running around for along time.

We are losing time here as far as
I'm concerned the only clue is this.

Martha, Watch out!
What are you doing?

Feel better?

By the way, I wanted to tell you since
yesterday I also talked with Dr Laurent.

I hoped he could advise us. I thought
it would be good if you left for a while.

Tomorrow after Mrs Britton's Funeral.
Laurent will take you to Par Pinyone.

You will certainly feel
more secure down there.

No Martha. No, I'll stay here.

I want to follow this thing closely.

You can take advantage of the time
to redecorate the apartment.

You've been wanting to do it
over for a long time.

Now let us pray for the soul
of Annie Britton.

I hear that you've decided to leave
tonight, that's smart of you.

Let me tell you, I don't
feel safe either.

Sorry Martha,
we'll Have to change our plans.

We've got to go tomorrow morning
I cant leave town tonight.

Something very urgent has happened
and I've got to work all night.

Martha can go with Marcus.

No Ralph,
I think he should stay with you.

You can't be left alone. Anyone
with your condition must be careful.

Martha, you promised you would always
take Snoopy, what have you done with him?

Now Christina, I don't think this
is the moment, do you?

Martha means she's has to leave and has
put snoopy in her bag - That's okay then.

Hey there! Hey you!

Hello, Doctor Laurent's office.

Hello Martha, the doctor
isn't in. He's treating a

patient in the county and
won't be back until tomorrow.

Are you alright Miss Martha?
What's the Matter?

Thank you.

Martha, Martha the tonic.

I'm sorry to startle you Miss.

I saw the house in darkness
and thought a fuse had blown

I came in to see if you needed anything.

Perhaps the mains were struck by Lighting.

I understand, his heart drops,
I'll go and wake

the pharmacist and be
back as fast as I can.

Oh Miss Martha
are you sure you'll be ok whilst I'm gone?

Look the gates of the villa are open
I think we should take a look inside.

You stay here.

Miss Caldwell.

Are you alright?

Don't worry It's all over, Did you
recognise him?

Where did he come in?

It was a mains fuse, in the road
by the cemetery.

Are you feeling
better Inspector?

No I have a fever high
enough to kill a horse.

Now what the devil is going on?

Miss Martha said she
thought she saw a light

in the cemetery just
before she was attacked.

That someone was signaling
with a flashlight - Lets give it a try.

Is everything ready - I've stationed
men on the graveyard he won't escape.

- Ok lets not waste anymore time.
- Lets Go!

Hello, we're ready.

We're going in now.

Come on.

Inspector, How about this?
Now do you understand?

There he is Inspector!

Throw it down or I'll
give the order to shoot.

If you decide to confess
we can relax, both of us.

- Do you recognise this?
- Yes.

- Do you want to explain what it means?
- It's a medal, a supernatural symbol.

Do you take part
in Black Masses?

Yes I do,
one of the many who honour Satan.

There are many more than twenty in the
area of London, it's not against the law.

And human sacrifice and ritual murder,
have you ever heard that spoken about?

You killed them,
confess and you can drink the bottle.

I didn't know them!

You, continue.

Now begin again.

- Good morning Doctor did you sleep well?
- I didn't get a wink all night.

- Has he confessed?
- I can't make a dent with that one.

He's crazy,
All I know is his name is Rudie

Mason he's English
and he worships the devil.

- That should be enough.
- Yes, enough to arrest him.

But not enough to close the case,
and be able to go home to bed.

By the way Doctor, What can
I do for my cough, it's killing me.

To cure the flu takes eight days and to
ensure it doesn't come back, go to bed.

Inspectors can't do that.

Martha's in there can
you prevent her from seeing him

I'm sorry I can't
do anything about that,

As you know your
testimony is very important.

I'm afraid you must be patient
and simply answer Yes or No.

Take off your glasses.

Have you ever seen this man before?

Look at him carefully.

Relax Martha it will soon all be over - Is
he the one you and Jenny saw in the Road?

And is he the same person that
you saw at your cousin's funeral?

This is the last question.

Do you recognise him as the man who
assaulted you last night in your home?

She only saw the reflection of her attacker
in the glass door.

You think that it could be this
man's reflection?

Thank you Miss Caldwell
You may leave.

I'll be away for six months so I can
catch up with some best sellers.

I'll make you out a cheque.
Can you wrap this up for Uncle Ralph?

Martha Look What I found.

Miss Martha,

Don't let things get you down,
it doesn't do anyone any good.

Would you like me to put your
easel up so you can paint?

I'm so happy your not going away.

It's beautiful.

That beats everything.

I don't know why your so kind to me.

I have a present for you too Martha,
but you have to play a game with me.

Your breathing is okay,
but not your pressure.

With you Ralph, I can be sincere.
You must avoid any kind of stress.

At my Age with a heart like mine,
one must be prepared for anything.

It's Martha that worries me.

She's been so depressed lately.

Always alone.

At her age, it's awful.

If it was not for that little girl
Christina, she's been a tremendous help.

Just look at them.

They seem like mother and daughter.

Good Bye Ralph - Good Bye.

- Doctor.
- Yes.

- There's an urgent telephone call for you.
- Thank you.

Hello. Yes, she should be
used to that now.

I'll be there in a few hours I can't
come right way, thank you.

Found you.

- Aren't I good.
- Good going Christina.

Hello Martha - Hello Doctor.

No thanks, I have to run to see a patient.

Is someone sick?

- Pregnant, she's pregnant.
- Doctors always have to run off somewhere.

Christina? I don't understand.

Martha.

How did she disappear?

Where are you?
I won't have any of this nonsense.

- Did you call Marcus?
- I don't know where he is.

- Can we go ahead with the autopsy doctor?
- Yes we are in time.

If we had waited a few more days
we couldn't have done it.

I surprised at you Ralph
to buy a house next

door to a cemetery is
a macabre thing to do.

I suspect you have your reasons
but I fail to see what they are.

The autopsy report has confirmed
your version of the facts.

That poor girl died of
a overdose of heroin.

- Did you find the needle mark?
- Yes.

Lucky for me that little girl was killed.
Really, I'm sorry.

Read his statement will you.

I met the girl two days ago
and we camped a little way out of

town I left her alone and went
to look for a bottle of whisky.

When I came back she was
in a coma from a overdose of

heroin. It all happened so
quickly, she was dead in minutes.

There was no time to get help,

I thought someone had seen us
together and I was afraid.

For that reason I threw her body
into the ditch and covered her with rocks.

Good.
You can take him back to his cell.

Now what?

We have to begin all over again.

The real murderer of Jenny Ascot,
Mrs Britton, and Christina

is in circulation again, god
only knows what he'll do next,

Rosalie.

- Where are you going?
- These school books were Cristina's.

They've been here ever since...
I'm going to give them to Miss Martha.

Give them to me. My niece
is resting she had a bad night.

- Miss Martha, is Miss Martha Home.
- Yes she's on her way down,

It's very important that each one of
you remember your precise Movements.

I know how terrible it is for you, but I'm
asking for your co-operation one last time.

Doctor Laurent has explained
everything to you, hasn't he?

And now will you try to reconstruct
what happened that day.

Where were you Marcus?

- In the servants quarters.
- And you didn't hear Rosalie calling you?

- I was repairing a door with a drill.
- And then you ran to the Garden?

Yes. When I heard a scream
I came immediately - Alright.

Now return to the servants quarters and
try to re-enact your exact movements.

Where you at home? Yes I didn't go in until
Martha told of Christina's disappearance.

And you Doctor?

After I left Ralph, I only spent
a few seconds in the garden with Martha.

You see I had a call from the Hospital
about a delivery.

- And that didn't leave a lot of time.
- Then you got in your car and left?

- Do you mind going with the Doctor?
- Not at all Inspector.

Then it was when Doctor Laurent
left that Christina blindfolded you.

Do you know in what direction
she went to hide?

How much time passed until
you took off your blindfold?

Three or four minutes.

Well... We'll wait.

I stopped the car here,
I had some candy for Martha

and Christina and had
forgotten to give it to them.

And I had to go back - Last time you forgot
your bag and had to go back for that,

- Being forgetful is not a crime.
- Yes I know, Go back.

I stopped the car here at the service gate
I took the candy and got out the car.

The next thing you did was run and
warn your uncle? Do it now.

Three minutes Inspector.

I met miss Martha in the entrance and she
told me of Christina's disappearance,

So I began to Look for her, I went to the
servants quarters and I called the driver.

But no-one answered, then I was
met by Sir Ralph.

Is it serious?

Heart attack.

Inspector!
Take good care of her.

There's nothing more anyone can do,
he passed away,

I'm sorry I know this
must be a shock for you.

Do you want to see him?

I'm leaving tomorrow,
The arrangements for sending

the body back to London
will keep me away all day.

You know how he was,
he always use to say.

"A real Englishman has the
right to return to his land".

Anyhow I leave you in good hands.

No matter what happens there will always be
a policemen in the garden and in the road.

The Inspector has given you full
Police Protection so don't worry.

I have to leave you now.

Goodbye Martha.

Take care of yourself.

There's been a call, your relief
will arrive at 10pm - Thank you.

Miss Martha's in the living room.

Alright there's no
need to worry about her.

Miss?

I've finished my duty,
but my relief is late

getting here,
so I'll wish you a good night.

- 321 Come in, 321 can you hear me.
- 321 here receiving you loud and clear.

Message received, will go to the scene
of the accident, 321 over and out.

"Hello this is Father Martin. It's you
Martha I want to speak to the doctor."

"I was told he arrived at your house a
little while ago, it's very urgent."

"Hello, hello Martha."

You cant kill anyone
The gun is full of blanks.

Your Uncle is alive Martha
but now you are more alone than ever.

Ralph was the first one
to learn the truth...

You killed Jenny,
Mrs Britton, and then Christina.

Now you must come with us.

Calm down Martha, calm down.
It's useless anyway.

You killed Jenny because she had what
you don't have, a voice.

You hated her, her very presence reminded
you of your affliction.

Everyone thought the murderer was
that English hippy.

But that theory was too simple
to except.

Personally I wasn't convinced there
was a homicidal maniac.

Do you remember I tried
hard to break that theory.

And in order to strengthen
your story, you killed Mrs Britton.

And then you pretended that
someone assaulted you.

And little Christina?

She needed to eliminate a
dangerous witness.

That morning in the garden the little girl
told Martha that she had found the chain.

With the Snoopy medallion in the woods
where Mrs Britton was murdered.

"Bad Snoopy,
you abandoned Aunt Martha and hid yourself

in the woods,
where the bad wolf killed Mrs Britton."

"You were all covered in blood,
you were wounded

and I took care of you
and made you well."

"Now you have to be punished."

You couldn't predict that Christina
had written this down in her diary.

That morning your uncle surprised you
in the garden accusing you of the crime.

It was a shock for him and
he had a heart attack.

But we saved him.

I'm sorry but I have to arrest you.

Fury said to a mouse.

Whom he met in the house,

Let us both go to trial.

I will prosecute you.

Come I'll take no denial.

We must have the trial.

For really this morning
I've got nothing to do.

Said the mouse to the cur
Such a trial dear sir,

I'll be judge and the jury
said the cunning old fury,

I will try the whole course
and condemn you to death.
