1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:05,438
[Woman]Her eyes haven't left this table sinceGrady arrived with Miss Sis-boom-bah.
2
00:00:05,506 --> 00:00:08,703
- There's gonna be fireworks tonight.
- [Thunderclap]
3
00:00:08,776 --> 00:00:10,368
[Woman]Tonight on Murder, She Wrote.
4
00:00:10,444 --> 00:00:14,141
If there were foul play,
I think I'd like to speak to that nephew of yours.
5
00:00:14,214 --> 00:00:16,910
- What were you doin' in Sandy's room?
- You didn't tell the cops, did ya?
6
00:00:16,984 --> 00:00:20,112
He was with you
when you found Sandra's body?
7
00:00:20,187 --> 00:00:22,781
I thought you said
she was harmless.
8
00:00:22,856 --> 00:00:25,723
- You do have a writer's imagination,
Mrs. Fletcher. - Thank you.
9
00:00:25,793 --> 00:00:29,957
- I didn't quite mean that as a-
- I know what you meant, Inspector.
10
00:02:01,188 --> 00:02:03,554
Uh, would you wait here, please?
11
00:02:05,359 --> 00:02:09,318
Hey, lady, you can't go up there.
Well, what do you mean, I can't go up?
12
00:02:09,396 --> 00:02:12,854
Trust me,
you don't wanna go up there.
13
00:02:12,933 --> 00:02:15,766
AuntJess, hold on.
Grady, what's going on here?
14
00:02:15,836 --> 00:02:19,294
I'm really sorry, AuntJess,
but there's been a slight change in plans.
15
00:02:19,373 --> 00:02:23,002
Ain't my fault, lady.You got cockroaches the sizeof Cleveland up there!
16
00:02:23,076 --> 00:02:25,408
If you don't like it,call the city.
17
00:02:25,479 --> 00:02:27,811
Yesterday, it was just one apartment
on the first floor,
18
00:02:27,881 --> 00:02:30,714
and when they sprayed,
all the cockroaches moved up to my apartment.
19
00:02:30,784 --> 00:02:34,185
Oh, dear. I was really looking
forward to staying with you.
20
00:02:34,254 --> 00:02:37,052
Oh, you are, but not here.
21
00:02:38,392 --> 00:02:41,919
[Jessica]The Montaigne Plaza?Oh, my goodness.
22
00:02:41,995 --> 00:02:46,523
That hotel has more starsthan the sidewalks in Hollywood.Don't worry. We're comped.
23
00:02:46,600 --> 00:02:49,933
My friend Gary Harper, from school,
he married the hotel.
24
00:02:50,003 --> 00:02:52,665
I mean, he married the lady
who owns the hotel.
25
00:02:52,739 --> 00:02:54,969
Now just a moment.
I remember Gary very well.
26
00:02:55,042 --> 00:02:57,602
I mean, he's your age.
And if I'm not mistaken,
27
00:02:57,678 --> 00:03:00,408
Cornelia Montaigne is, uh-
well, she's older.
28
00:03:00,480 --> 00:03:03,813
Well, all I know is he fell into it.
He is hip-deep into money...
29
00:03:03,884 --> 00:03:07,479
and he wants to share
some of the good luck with his old fraternity buddy.
30
00:03:07,554 --> 00:03:09,818
Come on, AuntJess.
It's gonna be great fun.
31
00:03:09,890 --> 00:03:14,793
Spending time with you-
That's gonna be fun.
32
00:03:14,861 --> 00:03:16,954
Gary Harper.
33
00:03:17,030 --> 00:03:20,591
You know, I remember him
traipsing along the beach.
34
00:03:20,667 --> 00:03:23,761
When was that,
eight years ago?
35
00:03:23,837 --> 00:03:27,398
I'm sorry, but I can't picture him
with Cornelia Montaigne.
36
00:03:27,474 --> 00:03:31,171
Are you kidding?Believe me, they're likea couple oflovebirds.
37
00:03:31,245 --> 00:03:34,840
If you weren't my husband,
Garrett, I'd have your job for this.
38
00:03:34,915 --> 00:03:39,215
Now, Cornelia-
After I spend the entire morning vacating the 32nd floor,
39
00:03:39,286 --> 00:03:42,119
you turn around
and book the countess into the corner suite.
40
00:03:42,189 --> 00:03:45,716
- It was empty. L-
- That's because the Sheikh Faisal Usmani...
41
00:03:45,792 --> 00:03:48,022
has it bookedstarting at midnight.
42
00:03:48,095 --> 00:03:52,623
When-When are you going
to learn to check with me first...
43
00:03:52,699 --> 00:03:55,327
before making
these arbitrary decisions?
44
00:03:55,402 --> 00:03:58,269
Perhaps I can be
of some assistance, Cornelia.
45
00:03:58,338 --> 00:04:01,171
I moved the countess
to the Blue Suite on 39 an hour ago.
46
00:04:01,241 --> 00:04:03,266
And why didn't you tell me?
47
00:04:03,343 --> 00:04:07,541
If I let you know all
the wonderful things I do around here, you'd have to give me a raise.
48
00:04:10,550 --> 00:04:13,280
Excuse me.
I have some guests to greet.
49
00:04:13,353 --> 00:04:17,517
Do that, Garrett.
And see if you can book them into the right room...
50
00:04:17,591 --> 00:04:19,616
just for the challenge of it.
51
00:04:26,300 --> 00:04:28,234
Grady.
52
00:04:28,302 --> 00:04:30,236
Grady, my man.
Gary.
53
00:04:30,304 --> 00:04:32,238
How are ya?
[Chuckling] I'm great!
54
00:04:32,306 --> 00:04:34,604
You remember who this is?
Jessica!
55
00:04:34,675 --> 00:04:38,577
Gary.
You look exactly the way you did the last time we went fishing in Cabot Cove.
56
00:04:38,645 --> 00:04:41,045
[Laughs]
And I dropped the tackle box in the harbor.
57
00:04:41,114 --> 00:04:44,481
And tumbled in right after it,
if I recall.
58
00:04:44,551 --> 00:04:47,179
Listen, it's nice to have you here,
both of you.
59
00:04:47,254 --> 00:04:49,415
This is just a quickbusiness visit for me,
60
00:04:49,489 --> 00:04:53,050
but actually, it's an excuse
to spend some time with Grady.
61
00:04:53,126 --> 00:04:57,085
Now, this suite-
I can't allow you to- Oh, no, no, no, no.
62
00:04:57,164 --> 00:05:00,099
I've been waiting eight years
to repay the hospitality.
63
00:05:00,167 --> 00:05:03,193
Now this is my town, my treat.
Starting tonight,
64
00:05:03,270 --> 00:05:05,329
dinner, 7:00 sharp.
65
00:05:05,405 --> 00:05:08,568
- Mom will bejoining us.
- Mom?
66
00:05:08,642 --> 00:05:10,439
I mean, my mom.
67
00:05:10,510 --> 00:05:14,105
Oh, no, Cornelia can't make it.
No, she's the consummate workaholic.
68
00:05:14,181 --> 00:05:18,379
Rumor has it that, uh, she once
took out time for dinner in 1965.
69
00:05:18,452 --> 00:05:20,420
[Laughs]
But, uh, it's just a rumor.
70
00:05:20,487 --> 00:05:24,924
But I could make a reservation
for Sandra Clemens.
71
00:05:24,991 --> 00:05:27,687
Sandra Clemens?
Is she in town?
72
00:05:27,761 --> 00:05:30,457
She just checked in
a couple of days ago. No kidding?
73
00:05:30,530 --> 00:05:33,431
Sandra Clemens?
You remember Sandra, AuntJess.
74
00:05:33,500 --> 00:05:35,866
Homecoming.
Third cheerleader from the left,
75
00:05:35,936 --> 00:05:38,063
blonde, about this tall.
76
00:05:38,138 --> 00:05:40,868
I must've been watching the game.
77
00:05:40,941 --> 00:05:43,671
Well, when she heard
you were coming, um-
78
00:05:43,744 --> 00:05:46,679
Well, I think she's looking
for a dinner invitation.
79
00:05:46,747 --> 00:05:49,307
With me?
Well, that is, ifJessica doesn't mind.
80
00:05:49,383 --> 00:05:53,319
Mind? I can't wait to see
what I missed.
81
00:05:53,387 --> 00:05:57,084
We'll take very good care
of her, Mrs. Townsend. Depend on it.
82
00:05:57,157 --> 00:05:59,091
Safe journey.
83
00:05:59,159 --> 00:06:03,152
Darling, I'd like-
Grady! How nice to see you again.
84
00:06:03,230 --> 00:06:06,757
My, you've lost weight.
Very attractive.
85
00:06:06,833 --> 00:06:08,733
And this is Grady's AuntJessica.
86
00:06:08,802 --> 00:06:12,568
Oh, Garrett has told me
all about you, Mrs. Fletcher.
87
00:06:12,639 --> 00:06:16,234
I must confess, I don't have timeto read your books,
88
00:06:16,309 --> 00:06:20,439
or anyone else's, I'm afraid,
but I am delighted you're staying with us.
89
00:06:20,514 --> 00:06:23,449
Well, thank you, Mrs. Harper.
I'm so happy to meet you.
90
00:06:23,517 --> 00:06:26,179
Mark Havlin, my good right arm.
91
00:06:26,253 --> 00:06:30,656
Mark, do see that Grady and his aunt
have anything they want.
92
00:06:30,724 --> 00:06:34,285
Nothing is too much
for a friend of Garrett's.
93
00:06:34,361 --> 00:06:39,025
Oh, if you will excuse me,I'm expecting a call from Washington-
94
00:06:39,099 --> 00:06:42,330
the Secret Service-
to make arrangements for next week.
95
00:06:42,402 --> 00:06:45,894
You'll understand if I can't explainexactly what those are.
96
00:06:49,643 --> 00:06:53,101
My goodness, Cornelia iscertainly overpowering.
97
00:06:53,180 --> 00:06:55,978
That's just her way.
Gary says she's still competing with her father,
98
00:06:56,049 --> 00:06:58,711
even though he's been
dead for 20 years. Hmm.
99
00:06:58,785 --> 00:07:02,482
- Oh, my gosh.
- Grady?
100
00:07:02,556 --> 00:07:05,525
[Chuckles]Grady!
101
00:07:05,592 --> 00:07:07,685
Sandy. Hi.
[Laughing]
102
00:07:07,761 --> 00:07:11,162
Oh!
I can't believe you remember me.
103
00:07:11,231 --> 00:07:14,200
Don't be an old poop.
Of course I do.
104
00:07:14,267 --> 00:07:17,293
Don't tell me.
This must be your aunt. Gary told me you were coming.
105
00:07:17,370 --> 00:07:19,770
Sandra Clemens.
Of course, I remember now.
106
00:07:19,840 --> 00:07:21,967
Third cheerleader
from the left, right?
107
00:07:22,042 --> 00:07:25,034
Homecoming, right?
You've got some memory.
108
00:07:25,111 --> 00:07:30,879
Well, actually, Grady has
a photograph on his coffee table. AuntJess.
109
00:07:30,951 --> 00:07:33,181
[Jessica]Look, if you two will excuse me.
110
00:07:33,253 --> 00:07:35,721
I've got some unpacking to do.
Nice meeting you, Sandy.
111
00:07:35,789 --> 00:07:38,019
Nice meeting you.
112
00:07:38,091 --> 00:07:40,025
Super lady.
113
00:07:40,093 --> 00:07:43,392
Oh, yeah.
She's the greatest.
114
00:07:45,499 --> 00:07:51,165
[Clears Throat]
Um, Gary told me you were having a little dinner party tonight?
115
00:07:51,238 --> 00:07:54,730
Oh- Oh, yeah, sure.
Uh, are you coming?
116
00:07:54,808 --> 00:07:58,244
L-I mean- I mean,
would you like to come-
117
00:07:59,613 --> 00:08:02,582
Pick me up at 7:00.
I live right there.
118
00:08:02,649 --> 00:08:04,583
4553.
119
00:08:04,651 --> 00:08:07,552
7:00. 4553.
120
00:08:07,621 --> 00:08:09,612
Right.
121
00:08:14,494 --> 00:08:16,462
7:00.
122
00:08:23,270 --> 00:08:25,363
[Elevator Bell Dings]
123
00:08:33,747 --> 00:08:37,183
Well, did you talk to Grady?
I ran into him in the hallway with his aunt.
124
00:08:37,250 --> 00:08:39,241
You know, Gary, this is dumb.
125
00:08:39,319 --> 00:08:41,651
This is really dumb.
126
00:08:41,721 --> 00:08:45,487
Look, anything to keep Cornelia
off my back.
127
00:08:45,559 --> 00:08:47,959
If she catches on,
the party's over...
128
00:08:48,028 --> 00:08:51,122
for both of us.
129
00:08:52,532 --> 00:08:54,466
[Knocking]
130
00:08:56,136 --> 00:08:58,400
Hi, Grady.
Hi.
131
00:08:58,471 --> 00:09:01,736
For me?
Thanks. They're beautiful.
132
00:09:01,808 --> 00:09:04,242
Come on in.
We'll put them in some water. [Phone Ringing]
133
00:09:04,311 --> 00:09:06,302
Oh.
134
00:09:07,314 --> 00:09:09,805
Hello?
135
00:09:09,883 --> 00:09:12,818
No, I told you that's no good.
136
00:09:12,886 --> 00:09:16,185
No, that won't work either.
137
00:09:16,256 --> 00:09:19,248
I can't get into it right now.Can I call you back?
138
00:09:19,326 --> 00:09:21,692
Okay, let me get a pencil.
139
00:09:23,463 --> 00:09:25,795
Here you go.
Great.
140
00:09:29,369 --> 00:09:31,303
Okay, what's the number?
141
00:09:34,040 --> 00:09:36,634
Okay. Thank you. Bye.
142
00:09:38,345 --> 00:09:40,176
Grady.
What?
143
00:09:40,246 --> 00:09:42,874
I hope those flowers like vermouth.
144
00:09:44,684 --> 00:09:47,619
I just made us some martinis.
145
00:09:56,830 --> 00:10:00,266
[Chuckling]
Well, I am thrilled, absolutely thrilled.
146
00:10:00,333 --> 00:10:05,293
I mean, here I am
with a real live absolute celebrity, Jessie.
147
00:10:05,372 --> 00:10:09,536
Well, now that's very nice.
Well, I've never had dinner with a celebrity before.
148
00:10:09,609 --> 00:10:14,012
Oh, well, I did sit across
from Joe Namath once at Lindy's.
149
00:10:14,080 --> 00:10:16,344
I don't think that counts.
150
00:10:16,416 --> 00:10:18,350
Well, look who's here.
151
00:10:18,418 --> 00:10:20,352
Hi, everybody.
Hi, Grady.
152
00:10:20,420 --> 00:10:22,217
Oh, Grady, dear.
153
00:10:22,288 --> 00:10:26,384
Lean in here andgive an old lady a kiss.
154
00:10:26,459 --> 00:10:28,393
[Chuckles]
155
00:10:28,461 --> 00:10:31,294
Well, I hope you enjoyed that,
young fella,
156
00:10:31,364 --> 00:10:34,561
because that's about as good
as it's going to get for you tonight.
157
00:10:34,634 --> 00:10:37,728
Another fun-filled dinner,
eh, Nettie?
158
00:10:37,804 --> 00:10:41,570
- Speak for yourself, Sandra.
- Cool it, Mother.
159
00:10:41,641 --> 00:10:45,008
Uh, may I?
160
00:10:45,078 --> 00:10:47,012
Oh, my goodness.
161
00:10:47,080 --> 00:10:50,948
Oh, what an excellent wine list.
162
00:10:51,017 --> 00:10:54,316
Gary, I insist, tonight the wine
is going to be on me.
163
00:10:54,387 --> 00:10:57,254
Forget the wine list, Jessie.
You're missing the big picture.
164
00:10:57,323 --> 00:10:59,416
Look at her. Look at her.
165
00:10:59,492 --> 00:11:04,794
Her eyes haven't left this tablesince Grady arrivedwith Miss Sis-boom-bah.
166
00:11:04,864 --> 00:11:07,264
She knows
we're talking about her too.
167
00:11:09,569 --> 00:11:13,437
Mark my words, Jessie.There's gonna be fireworks tonight.
168
00:11:13,506 --> 00:11:15,440
And I love it.
169
00:11:16,876 --> 00:11:19,936
Sandra Clemens is Grady's friend.
170
00:11:20,013 --> 00:11:23,813
- You mean, Grady's friend as well.
- Cornelia, I hardly know her.
171
00:11:23,883 --> 00:11:28,980
Is that why she's checked
into this hotel nine times since you and I were married?
172
00:11:29,055 --> 00:11:31,990
How often Sandra Clemens
comes to New York is her business.
173
00:11:32,058 --> 00:11:35,858
And frankly,
I think you should be grateful that she gives us so much of it.
174
00:11:35,929 --> 00:11:40,559
Lfind myself strangely
lacking in gratitude...
175
00:11:40,633 --> 00:11:43,363
when it comes
to my husband's mistresses.
176
00:11:43,436 --> 00:11:46,496
Mistresses?
177
00:11:46,573 --> 00:11:51,806
Cornelia, I was just trying
to arrange a simple reunion for two old friends,
178
00:11:51,878 --> 00:11:56,906
and as usual, your imagination
has ruined a wonderful evening for all of us.
179
00:11:58,251 --> 00:12:00,776
You know, if I read
one more paragraph tonight,
180
00:12:00,854 --> 00:12:05,985
this manuscript is gonna startlooking like one big typo.
181
00:12:06,059 --> 00:12:08,391
I'm gonna go to bed.
What?
182
00:12:08,461 --> 00:12:10,827
Don't you want to play
any gin rummy or-
183
00:12:10,897 --> 00:12:13,866
Not tonight.
Why don't you go out?
184
00:12:13,933 --> 00:12:16,731
Go out? It's pouring!
185
00:12:16,803 --> 00:12:21,137
Well, you have two good friends
right here in the hotel.
186
00:12:21,207 --> 00:12:23,903
You sure you don't mind?
Mind? I insist.
187
00:12:23,977 --> 00:12:26,104
Okay.
188
00:12:26,179 --> 00:12:29,410
Good night, AuntJess.
Good night, Grady.
189
00:12:29,482 --> 00:12:31,848
And have a good time.
Yeah.
190
00:12:33,920 --> 00:12:36,252
[Sighs, Chuckles]
191
00:12:49,402 --> 00:12:51,393
Sandy?
192
00:12:54,107 --> 00:12:56,098
Sandy?
193
00:12:57,310 --> 00:13:00,302
[Thunderclap]
194
00:13:06,619 --> 00:13:08,610
Sandy?
195
00:13:45,625 --> 00:13:48,150
[Woman]
Hello? Hello?
196
00:13:48,228 --> 00:13:50,992
Operator. Operator.
197
00:13:52,365 --> 00:13:57,359
It was very helpful of you
to call the police, Mr. Fletcher,
198
00:13:57,437 --> 00:13:59,928
but I'm head of hotel security.
199
00:14:00,006 --> 00:14:02,065
You should've notified me first.
200
00:14:02,141 --> 00:14:04,075
I thought I did the right thing.
201
00:14:04,143 --> 00:14:08,580
Well, we don't like to upset our guests
over little accidents like this.
202
00:14:08,648 --> 00:14:12,641
Accident?
You can't be serious, Mr. Rice.
203
00:14:12,719 --> 00:14:15,745
Oh, I'm a very serious
kind of guy, ma'am,
204
00:14:15,822 --> 00:14:18,450
when it comes to bodies
in hotel rooms.
205
00:14:22,595 --> 00:14:24,756
Excuse me, AuntJess.
206
00:14:27,500 --> 00:14:31,459
What's goin' on?
What do ya mean, "What's goin' on?" What were you doin' in Sandy's room?
207
00:14:31,537 --> 00:14:35,769
I saw you sneaking outof the living room. You didn't tell the cops, did ya?
208
00:14:35,842 --> 00:14:38,970
No, not yet.
Oh, Cornelia would kill me if she found out.
209
00:14:39,045 --> 00:14:42,708
Aw, come on, Gary. Sandy's dead!
Now what were you doin' in there?
210
00:14:42,782 --> 00:14:45,774
Oh, get serious, Grady.
211
00:14:45,852 --> 00:14:48,013
Come on. You know me
better than that.
212
00:14:48,087 --> 00:14:50,817
I came here to see how it went
between you guys tonight.
213
00:14:50,890 --> 00:14:54,690
As soon as I started in,I saw you bendin'over the body.
214
00:14:54,761 --> 00:14:58,697
Lfigured I'd better go get help.
That must've been when you saw me.
215
00:14:58,765 --> 00:15:03,566
Look, believe me, if it wasn't
for Cornelia, I'd be talkin' to the cops right now.
216
00:15:09,409 --> 00:15:12,071
Oh, great.
Pomp and circumstance has arrived.
217
00:15:13,713 --> 00:15:17,274
Uh, sorry they had to drag you
down here for this, Inspector Matheney.
218
00:15:17,350 --> 00:15:22,549
No need to apologize. Seems routine.
With any luck, I can get back to the ballet in time for the Rose Adagio.
219
00:15:22,622 --> 00:15:24,817
Excuse me, uh, Inspector.
220
00:15:24,891 --> 00:15:27,826
I'm Jessica Fletcher,
and my nephew found the body.
221
00:15:27,894 --> 00:15:31,193
How do you do, Mrs... Fletcher?
222
00:15:31,264 --> 00:15:34,665
I'm Donald Matheney.
I don't see Mrs. Harper.
223
00:15:34,734 --> 00:15:38,329
Oh, well, uh,
we're trying to locate her. [Chuckles]
224
00:15:38,404 --> 00:15:41,464
I see.
Look, Rice, would you tell her I dropped by?
225
00:15:41,541 --> 00:15:44,032
I don't see that
I'm really needed here.
226
00:15:44,110 --> 00:15:46,442
Uh, excuse me, uh, Inspector.
227
00:15:46,512 --> 00:15:50,573
Mr. Rice has described
the young lady's death as an accident.
228
00:15:50,650 --> 00:15:54,416
I'm sure he has.
Mr. Rice has an instinct for, uh, public relations.
229
00:15:54,487 --> 00:15:58,423
But perhaps not for homicide.
May I show you something?
230
00:15:58,491 --> 00:16:00,516
Yes, of course.
231
00:16:01,527 --> 00:16:03,620
Rice.
232
00:16:04,897 --> 00:16:09,334
She seems to have hit her head
on the dresser here.
233
00:16:09,402 --> 00:16:13,031
- There's a bloodstain here,
of course, and one there. - I don't get your point.
234
00:16:13,106 --> 00:16:17,566
- What did she trip over?
There's nothing in the room. - Maybe she had a fainting spell.
235
00:16:17,643 --> 00:16:19,577
Possibly, but-
[Rice]Ma'am.
236
00:16:19,645 --> 00:16:23,706
Ma'am, I think the inspector
would like to get back to the theater.
237
00:16:23,783 --> 00:16:28,277
Oh, yes. Yes, of course,
but I would like to point out this pillow.
238
00:16:28,354 --> 00:16:32,848
You see, it's crumpled and stained
with lipstick and makeup.
239
00:16:32,925 --> 00:16:36,952
Maybe she had to lie down.
Maybe a fainting spell.
240
00:16:37,030 --> 00:16:39,590
Yes, but if she laid down
on the bed,
241
00:16:39,665 --> 00:16:45,001
then why is the rest
of the bed unrumpled and freshly turned down?
242
00:16:47,874 --> 00:16:49,933
Inspector, if you can't find
Mrs. Harper,
243
00:16:50,009 --> 00:16:53,172
I suggest you might like to talk
with the hotel manager, Mark Havlin.
244
00:16:53,246 --> 00:16:55,976
I think I'll wait for Cornelia.
At least for a few more minutes.
245
00:16:56,049 --> 00:16:57,812
But-
Thank you for your help,Mrs. Fletcher.
246
00:16:57,884 --> 00:17:01,615
If there were foul play,
I think I'd like to speak to that nephew of yours.
247
00:17:01,687 --> 00:17:05,316
Well, Grady has already spoken
with the police. Yes, I know.
248
00:17:05,391 --> 00:17:08,485
But I'm more interested
in a... firsthand account.
249
00:17:08,561 --> 00:17:13,021
My dear lady, he was alonewith the corpse.
250
00:17:13,099 --> 00:17:17,968
He was intimately involved with her.
How intimately, I don't know... yet.
251
00:17:23,676 --> 00:17:28,739
I'm sorry for having gotten youout ofbed, Mr. Havlin,but your phone was off the hook.
252
00:17:28,815 --> 00:17:30,749
This is dreadful.
253
00:17:30,817 --> 00:17:34,651
And it won't get any better
with Mr. Rice up there representing the hotel.
254
00:17:34,720 --> 00:17:37,188
It certainly won't.
255
00:17:37,256 --> 00:17:41,556
I'd been up for 24 hours
before I managed to snatch three hours sleep.
256
00:17:41,627 --> 00:17:45,495
I'd appreciate it if you didn't
mention this to Cornelia. She thinks I'm indestructible.
257
00:17:45,565 --> 00:17:47,465
Oh, I understand.
258
00:17:47,533 --> 00:17:50,468
The sheikh arrives at midnight
with all 36 wives.
259
00:17:50,536 --> 00:17:53,061
That means 37 bathrooms
and all on the same floor.
260
00:17:53,139 --> 00:17:56,472
And now this... accident-
261
00:17:56,542 --> 00:17:59,534
death-whatever.
262
00:18:00,546 --> 00:18:04,038
Night shift came on at 8:00.
At least all the beds have been turned down.
263
00:18:04,117 --> 00:18:06,108
Shall we?
264
00:18:07,120 --> 00:18:10,180
We should have the medical report
first thing tomorrow.
265
00:18:10,256 --> 00:18:12,486
Keep yourself available,
Mr. Fletcher. Of course, sir.
266
00:18:14,494 --> 00:18:16,519
He thinks I did it!
267
00:18:16,596 --> 00:18:20,657
Hey, Grady, no matter what happens,
I'll be there for ya, buddy.
268
00:18:26,405 --> 00:18:28,839
Well, at least the rain stopped.
269
00:18:35,181 --> 00:18:38,378
Even Gary thinks Matheney
suspects me.
270
00:18:38,451 --> 00:18:41,386
Grady, don't go sour
on the inspector yet.
271
00:18:41,454 --> 00:18:44,946
He seems to be pretty sour on me.
272
00:18:45,024 --> 00:18:49,552
He thinks Sandra and I
were "intimately involved." Boy, that's a laugh.
273
00:18:49,629 --> 00:18:53,895
The most exciting thingthat happened was when I putthe flowers in the martini pitcher.
274
00:18:53,966 --> 00:18:57,299
- Then she got this phone call.
- Phone call? From whom?
275
00:18:57,370 --> 00:18:59,804
I don't know.She said she'd call them back later.
276
00:18:59,872 --> 00:19:03,239
I remember rummaging
around for something to write the number on.
277
00:19:03,309 --> 00:19:07,609
And then she finally wrote it
on some envelope she took out of her purse.
278
00:19:07,680 --> 00:19:11,616
Grady, I think that you should
tell the inspector about this phone call.
279
00:19:11,684 --> 00:19:14,016
I mean, the numbermight be important.
280
00:19:14,086 --> 00:19:16,452
I did. He said
no envelope was found.
281
00:19:17,490 --> 00:19:19,424
AuntJess,
282
00:19:19,492 --> 00:19:22,928
do you think the killer
took the envelope 'cause his phone number was on it?
283
00:19:22,995 --> 00:19:26,158
I don't know what to think,
284
00:19:27,433 --> 00:19:32,302
unlike Inspector Matheney
who seems to know exactly what to think,
285
00:19:32,371 --> 00:19:34,305
mistaken as that might be.
286
00:19:34,373 --> 00:19:39,310
Grady, did you tell me that Sandraused to be a computer operator?
287
00:19:39,378 --> 00:19:43,280
- Yeah, back in Fort Wayne.
- Well, that can't pay much.
288
00:19:43,349 --> 00:19:45,943
I wonder how she can afford
to stay at the Montaigne.
289
00:19:46,018 --> 00:19:49,476
Probably the same way I am.
Gary picked up the tab.
290
00:19:53,859 --> 00:19:57,386
Mr. Havlin,I wanted to apologize againfor waking you up last night.
291
00:19:57,463 --> 00:20:00,261
You were a pleasure compared
to the harem with jet lag.
292
00:20:00,333 --> 00:20:02,733
Would you like a seat?
Thank you.
293
00:20:02,802 --> 00:20:06,203
Actually, I wanted to talk to you
about Sandra Clemens.
294
00:20:06,272 --> 00:20:08,763
Such a nice girl.
Yes.
295
00:20:08,841 --> 00:20:13,642
I just felt that I should
do something, and flowers just seem so inadequate.
296
00:20:13,713 --> 00:20:16,876
And, well, I just thoughtthat if there was...
297
00:20:16,949 --> 00:20:19,747
any difficulty in covering
her hotel bill,
298
00:20:19,819 --> 00:20:21,878
I would be glad to handle it.
299
00:20:21,954 --> 00:20:24,514
You can put away
your fishing pole, Mrs. Fletcher.
300
00:20:24,590 --> 00:20:27,684
Sandra Clemens's finances-
301
00:20:27,760 --> 00:20:31,355
Yes, that is a mystery
I stopped trying to fathom a long, long time ago,
302
00:20:31,430 --> 00:20:34,922
after her first stay,
early last year, I believe.
303
00:20:35,001 --> 00:20:39,131
Her first stay?
Uh, yes. She's been with usnine times since then.
304
00:20:39,205 --> 00:20:42,072
Amazing what they must be paying
computer operators these days.
305
00:20:42,141 --> 00:20:44,473
Yes. Amazing.
306
00:20:44,543 --> 00:20:47,979
She always paid her billby credit card, and there'snever been a problem.
307
00:20:48,047 --> 00:20:52,643
The tantalizing question,
of course, is, uh, who's been paying the credit card bill?
308
00:21:02,194 --> 00:21:07,188
[Nettie]Wait a minute. Wait a minute.What's so complicated, Gary?
309
00:21:07,266 --> 00:21:10,064
However it happened,
it's a stroke of luck.
310
00:21:10,136 --> 00:21:12,934
Now you reallycan divorce Cornelia.
311
00:21:13,005 --> 00:21:15,166
Yes.
[Chuckles]
312
00:21:15,241 --> 00:21:19,200
Call you back. Call you back.
Well, Jessie.
313
00:21:19,278 --> 00:21:23,442
Come on in. Come on in.
Forgive me, Mrs. Harper, but your door was wide open.
314
00:21:23,516 --> 00:21:26,076
Shall I?
Please do.
315
00:21:26,152 --> 00:21:28,950
Thank you. Sit down.
All right.
316
00:21:29,021 --> 00:21:33,014
And let your hair down
and call me Nettie. Oh, of course.
317
00:21:33,092 --> 00:21:36,220
Oh, don't you just love
these hotel chocolates?
318
00:21:36,295 --> 00:21:39,059
Of course, I have to steal 'em
like everybody else.
319
00:21:39,131 --> 00:21:42,692
Here, take a box.
Oh, really.
320
00:21:42,768 --> 00:21:45,794
Actually, Nettie,
this is a condolence call.
321
00:21:45,871 --> 00:21:50,865
I'm quite sure that you were hit
very hard by Sandra's death.
322
00:21:50,943 --> 00:21:54,174
Not a bit. Not a bit.
323
00:21:54,246 --> 00:21:56,237
Gary and I barely knew the girl.
324
00:21:56,315 --> 00:22:00,411
Well, hardly ever saw hersince the kids went to Purdue.
325
00:22:00,486 --> 00:22:02,420
Oh, how odd.
326
00:22:02,488 --> 00:22:06,083
I thought she had stayed
here at the Montaigne on a fairly regular basis.
327
00:22:06,158 --> 00:22:10,993
Really? Oh, Gary must have
forgotten to mention it.
328
00:22:11,063 --> 00:22:12,997
But you know
who I feel sorry for?
329
00:22:13,065 --> 00:22:17,126
Grady. Tsk, tsk, tsk.That poor boy.
330
00:22:17,203 --> 00:22:21,230
A fool could see
how he felt about Sandra,
331
00:22:21,307 --> 00:22:23,298
and then to find himself
mixed up in her death.
332
00:22:23,376 --> 00:22:27,278
- He found the body. That's all.
- Oh, but of course.
333
00:22:27,346 --> 00:22:29,871
Did I sound like
I implied otherwise?
334
00:22:29,949 --> 00:22:32,782
How terrible of me.Oh, no, no, no, no.
335
00:22:32,852 --> 00:22:35,377
I'm sure he's going to get off.
336
00:22:35,454 --> 00:22:41,051
I don't think they have a lick
of real proof that he was involved in any way.
337
00:22:41,127 --> 00:22:45,757
Mmm. Oh, try one of those
dark ones on the end.
338
00:22:45,831 --> 00:22:48,322
Brazil nuts and brandy.
339
00:22:49,902 --> 00:22:53,167
[Gary]Grady, old buddy, I gotta tell you,I'm scared to death.
340
00:22:53,239 --> 00:22:57,437
You, scared? Come on.
I mean it.
341
00:22:57,510 --> 00:23:01,344
I don't know what it is.
Maybe I'm gettin' old, losin' my nerve.
342
00:23:01,414 --> 00:23:03,348
But you gotta help me.
343
00:23:03,416 --> 00:23:05,611
If I can, sure, but-
344
00:23:05,684 --> 00:23:09,586
The truth is... Sandy and I...
dated for a while.
345
00:23:11,590 --> 00:23:14,388
You and Sandy?
After graduation.It didn't last long.
346
00:23:14,460 --> 00:23:16,860
L- I gave her this bracelet.
347
00:23:16,929 --> 00:23:19,921
Engraved. The whole bit.
348
00:23:19,999 --> 00:23:24,265
Anyway, she brought it back
to New York to show me, for old times sake.
349
00:23:26,071 --> 00:23:28,335
It's still in her room, Grady.
350
00:23:28,407 --> 00:23:31,604
In her bathrobe pocket.
Oh, boy.
351
00:23:31,677 --> 00:23:35,613
If the cops catch me goin'
in there to get it, it's all over.
352
00:23:35,681 --> 00:23:37,615
But you could get it.
353
00:23:39,351 --> 00:23:42,149
Oh, no.
Just tell 'em the truth.
354
00:23:42,221 --> 00:23:44,246
What, and have Corneliaall over my back?
355
00:23:44,323 --> 00:23:47,190
I'm in enough trouble
with her already.
356
00:23:47,259 --> 00:23:50,922
I mean, she gets jealous
if I just talk to another woman.
357
00:23:50,996 --> 00:23:54,124
And this bracelet, I mean, that-
that would really ice it.
358
00:23:54,200 --> 00:23:57,294
Gary, the room has been sealed.
359
00:23:57,369 --> 00:23:59,894
Tape across the door.
No big deal.
360
00:23:59,972 --> 00:24:02,406
Yeah, it's a big deal.
It's a police investigation!
361
00:24:02,475 --> 00:24:07,708
Thanks a lot, buddy. You don't remember
who dragged you out of that beer joint when those three goons...
362
00:24:07,780 --> 00:24:10,715
from Ohio State were gonnaturn you into a pretzel?
363
00:24:10,783 --> 00:24:14,378
- Yeah, sure I do.
- I adopted you, pal. We were like this!
364
00:24:14,453 --> 00:24:18,321
You for me, me for you.
365
00:24:22,194 --> 00:24:25,322
Here's my master key.
It opens every room in the hotel.
366
00:24:25,397 --> 00:24:29,663
You just slip in, slip out.
367
00:25:24,557 --> 00:25:28,220
"To Sandra. Forever, G."
368
00:25:28,294 --> 00:25:30,228
[Clears Throat]
369
00:25:38,137 --> 00:25:40,401
Oh, no.
370
00:25:45,611 --> 00:25:48,011
Jessica! Uh, Jessica.
371
00:25:48,080 --> 00:25:52,346
I just heard about Grady.
L-I can't believe it. Well, I can.
372
00:25:52,418 --> 00:25:56,582
Surely you're not suggesting
that Grady broke into that room to conceal evidence.
373
00:25:56,655 --> 00:25:59,055
Let's understand one thing,
Mrs. Harper.
374
00:25:59,124 --> 00:26:01,888
A passkey was found
in Grady's possession.
375
00:26:01,961 --> 00:26:04,987
A key that I very much suspect
belonged to your husband.
376
00:26:05,064 --> 00:26:07,726
I doubt that.
377
00:26:07,800 --> 00:26:11,395
I also very much suspect
that he was in that room...
378
00:26:11,470 --> 00:26:13,938
to retrieve a bracelet
for your husband.
379
00:26:14,006 --> 00:26:18,170
Grady sometimes hasa misplaced sense ofloyalty.
380
00:26:18,243 --> 00:26:21,041
Now, Mrs. Fletcher, that-
I also very much suspect...
381
00:26:21,113 --> 00:26:23,638
that the bracelet in question
was given as a gift...
382
00:26:23,716 --> 00:26:26,617
to Sandra by your husband
and not by my nephew.
383
00:26:26,685 --> 00:26:30,212
Furthermore, it shouldn't betoo hard to prove that.
384
00:26:30,289 --> 00:26:33,554
But I think you know that.
385
00:26:36,962 --> 00:26:39,089
Yes.
386
00:26:39,164 --> 00:26:43,794
I suppose I should be grateful
to Grady for bringing all this out into the open.
387
00:26:43,869 --> 00:26:47,862
I've had Mark Havlin, my manager,investigating Sandra for weeks.He found nothing.
388
00:26:49,975 --> 00:26:55,140
I despised myself
for being jealous,
389
00:26:55,214 --> 00:26:57,148
but the feeling wouldn't go away.
390
00:26:57,216 --> 00:27:00,777
I was sure there was something
between them.
391
00:27:00,853 --> 00:27:02,787
The bracelet only confirmed it.
392
00:27:04,823 --> 00:27:06,882
I'm sorry about that,
I really am.
393
00:27:06,959 --> 00:27:11,987
But at the moment, my first priority
is to find Inspector Matheney and get Grady out of jail.
394
00:27:12,064 --> 00:27:14,430
If you'll excuse me.
If it's Matheney you want,
395
00:27:14,500 --> 00:27:18,766
I wouldn't waste my time
going to police headquarters.
396
00:27:18,837 --> 00:27:20,600
Oh?
397
00:27:20,673 --> 00:27:23,972
##[Classical]
[Chuckling] No, no, you're absolutely right.
398
00:27:24,043 --> 00:27:27,843
Oh, thank you.
But even if the exhibit is a trifle deficient-
399
00:27:27,913 --> 00:27:31,440
certainly not the best
of Van Gogh- at least it is Van Gogh.
400
00:27:31,517 --> 00:27:35,419
Although there's always
the possibility of forgery, given the recent developments in-
401
00:27:35,487 --> 00:27:39,321
Would you, uh, excuse me
for just a moment.
402
00:27:44,863 --> 00:27:47,696
Mrs. Fletcher.
I had no idea you'd been invited to the opening.
403
00:27:47,766 --> 00:27:51,862
Well, believe me, Lieutenant,
with my nephew in jail, I'm not here for pleasure.
404
00:27:51,937 --> 00:27:54,838
Please, could we discuss this
some other time? Some other time?
405
00:27:54,907 --> 00:27:57,205
When? Tomorrow, over brunch?
406
00:27:57,276 --> 00:28:00,177
First, I'd like to know exactly
what he's been charged with.
407
00:28:00,245 --> 00:28:02,770
My good woman,
when a prime suspect in a murder investigation...
408
00:28:02,848 --> 00:28:06,011
is caught breaking
into the murder site to remove a piece of evidence,
409
00:28:06,085 --> 00:28:09,384
it is a fair assumption
that he will be incarcerated.
410
00:28:10,723 --> 00:28:13,715
You are assuming that Grady gave
that bracelet to Sandra.
411
00:28:13,792 --> 00:28:16,488
But that G. Could just as easily
have stood for Garrett,
412
00:28:16,562 --> 00:28:19,793
for whom I suspect
Grady was doing a favor.
413
00:28:19,865 --> 00:28:23,801
Someone with Garrett Harper's
money would hardly spring for such an inexpensive trinket.
414
00:28:23,869 --> 00:28:28,863
Inspector, if you would spend
more time on this case and less time at art exhibits,
415
00:28:28,941 --> 00:28:33,310
you would know that Gary Harperdidn't always have money.
416
00:28:33,378 --> 00:28:37,747
You might also find time
to examine a few important leads...
417
00:28:37,816 --> 00:28:39,875
which so far you appear
to have overlooked.
418
00:28:39,952 --> 00:28:44,184
Oh, really? And what might they be?
Well, for one, the envelopethat Grady told you about-
419
00:28:44,256 --> 00:28:47,919
the one that Sandra wrote the telephone number
on and then put into her purse.
420
00:28:47,993 --> 00:28:50,518
Have you bothered to see
if that has turned up?
421
00:28:50,596 --> 00:28:53,429
- You do have a writer's imagination,
Mrs. Fletcher. - Thank you.
422
00:28:53,499 --> 00:28:57,367
I didn't quite mean that as a-
I know what you meant, Inspector.
423
00:28:57,436 --> 00:29:00,667
And I didn't come here
to pick a quarrel. I'm only interested...
424
00:29:00,739 --> 00:29:04,368
in getting these ridiculous charges
against my nephew dismissed.
425
00:29:13,152 --> 00:29:16,053
I really appreciate all the trouble
you went to, AuntJess. Good.
426
00:29:16,121 --> 00:29:20,785
Then maybe in gratitude you can
tell me why you did something so- so-
427
00:29:20,859 --> 00:29:23,623
- Dumb?
- Good word.
428
00:29:23,695 --> 00:29:26,755
A friend was in trouble.
I helped him out.
429
00:29:26,832 --> 00:29:31,235
And if he'd asked you
to rob a bank, I suppose you'd have helped him out with that too?
430
00:29:31,303 --> 00:29:35,467
Of course not.
But he said his wife would get jealous. He wanted to spare her feelings.
431
00:29:35,541 --> 00:29:37,600
Oh, Grady.
432
00:29:37,676 --> 00:29:40,008
I thought I owed him that much.
433
00:29:40,078 --> 00:29:42,103
I mean, considering everything
he's done for me.
434
00:29:42,181 --> 00:29:45,617
But what exactly
has Gary done for you,
435
00:29:45,684 --> 00:29:48,448
besides giving you a free room
in his wife's hotel?
436
00:29:48,520 --> 00:29:51,978
Come on. That's not fair.
He was very supportive when we found Sandra's body.
437
00:29:52,057 --> 00:29:56,118
He was with you
when you found Sandra's body?
438
00:29:56,195 --> 00:30:01,428
Well, not with me, exactly.
He was sort of in the other room.
439
00:30:01,500 --> 00:30:06,403
- "Sort of in the other room"?
- After I found Sandra's body, I heard this noise from the living room.
440
00:30:06,471 --> 00:30:09,235
And when I looked up,
I saw Gary run out the front door.
441
00:30:09,308 --> 00:30:12,175
For pity's sake!
And you didn't tell the police?
442
00:30:12,244 --> 00:30:14,178
No.
443
00:30:14,246 --> 00:30:18,478
He said he came in after I did,
and when he saw Sandra lying there, he ran off to get help.
444
00:30:18,550 --> 00:30:20,575
And you believed that?
Yes!
445
00:30:20,652 --> 00:30:24,952
I did at the time, but-
Look- No!
446
00:30:25,023 --> 00:30:28,652
You look, Grady.
Take a good, hard look.
447
00:30:28,727 --> 00:30:31,457
Now, it is one thing
to be loyal to an old friend,
448
00:30:31,530 --> 00:30:34,658
but it's quite another thing
to let that loyal friend use you.
449
00:30:34,733 --> 00:30:37,793
No, you got him all wrong.
Look, Grady.
450
00:30:37,870 --> 00:30:41,601
There's a real possibility
that Gary Harper is the killer.
451
00:30:41,673 --> 00:30:44,369
Oh, come on. That's crazy.
452
00:30:44,443 --> 00:30:46,877
Don't tell me that
it hasn't entered your mind.
453
00:30:46,945 --> 00:30:50,711
I mean, you're much too smart
to accept that man at face value,
454
00:30:50,782 --> 00:30:54,445
especially the face
that I've been seeing.
455
00:30:56,989 --> 00:31:00,220
I'm gonna go take a walk
or something. I'll see ya later.
456
00:31:00,292 --> 00:31:03,784
Grady!You have to go to the police.
457
00:31:05,464 --> 00:31:08,524
I'll be back in a while.
458
00:31:12,638 --> 00:31:15,129
[Phone Ringing]
459
00:31:16,642 --> 00:31:20,669
Yes?
Oh, yes, Inspector.
460
00:31:20,746 --> 00:31:23,044
What?
461
00:31:23,115 --> 00:31:26,846
Oh, yes. Yes, I'll be right there.
462
00:31:28,921 --> 00:31:33,756
I thought you might beinterested in these depositsin the Clemens girl's bankbook.
463
00:31:33,825 --> 00:31:38,319
Twenty to $25,000 each.
Over a dozen of'em.
464
00:31:38,397 --> 00:31:42,094
Now where does a girl who works
as a computer processor get that kind of money?
465
00:31:42,167 --> 00:31:46,501
Well, could be a lot of things,
but the one that jumps to mind, of course, is blackmail.
466
00:31:46,571 --> 00:31:50,530
Yes, I know.
But who? And why?
467
00:31:50,609 --> 00:31:54,101
Inspector, how long would it take
to get a printout...
468
00:31:54,179 --> 00:31:57,740
of all the dates that Sandra stayed
at the Montaigne Plaza?
469
00:31:57,816 --> 00:32:02,219
I ordered one up yesterday.
I, uh, think it was sent over this morning.
470
00:32:04,056 --> 00:32:06,991
Yes, yes. Here it is.
471
00:32:11,797 --> 00:32:14,493
Hmm. Just as I thought.
472
00:32:14,566 --> 00:32:19,196
The deposits and
the check-in dates match exactly.
473
00:32:19,271 --> 00:32:23,605
All right. The lady came to town
periodically for her payoff.
474
00:32:23,675 --> 00:32:27,236
That still doesn't tell us
who was giving her the money.
475
00:32:27,312 --> 00:32:30,509
Doesn't it seem strange to you
that her visits started...
476
00:32:30,582 --> 00:32:34,814
shortly after Gary Harper
married Cornelia Montaigne?
477
00:32:34,886 --> 00:32:37,787
[Chuckles]
I suppose you're right.
478
00:32:37,856 --> 00:32:40,916
Suppose Harper was being bled
by his ex-girlfriend.
479
00:32:40,993 --> 00:32:45,987
The lady's dead and I hardly
think the victim is going to tell us what was going on.
480
00:32:46,064 --> 00:32:48,999
Maybe we don't have to get it
from the victim.
481
00:32:52,971 --> 00:32:55,963
Well, I'm sorry.I can't chat right now, Jessica.
482
00:32:56,041 --> 00:32:58,737
I'm late for a hair appointment.
483
00:33:00,379 --> 00:33:03,507
Well, I don't know where Gary is,
if that's who you're looking for.
484
00:33:03,582 --> 00:33:06,551
Actually, I wanted
to talk with you, Nettie.
485
00:33:06,618 --> 00:33:11,578
I was curious about
a conversation you had with Gary on the telephone earlier.
486
00:33:11,656 --> 00:33:17,026
You said, " Now you really can
divorce Cornelia." Remember?
487
00:33:17,095 --> 00:33:20,531
That conversation
was meant for Gary's ears, not yours.
488
00:33:20,599 --> 00:33:22,999
Well, if I'm wrong,I apologize, Nettie,
489
00:33:23,068 --> 00:33:26,003
but everything seems to pointin the same direction.
490
00:33:26,071 --> 00:33:29,973
If there was a time
when Cornelia and Gary couldn't get a divorce,
491
00:33:30,042 --> 00:33:32,806
maybe it was because
they weren't legally married.
492
00:33:35,080 --> 00:33:37,708
Oh, don't be ridiculous.
I was there.
493
00:33:37,783 --> 00:33:40,013
I gave them six place settings.
494
00:33:40,085 --> 00:33:42,519
But the marriagewould hardly be valid...
495
00:33:42,587 --> 00:33:44,885
ifhe were already marriedto somebody else.
496
00:33:44,956 --> 00:33:47,789
It would be easy to prove.
497
00:33:52,431 --> 00:33:57,027
Do you know
how much anguish and cash...
498
00:33:57,102 --> 00:33:59,969
that secret has cost
over the past years?
499
00:34:00,038 --> 00:34:02,871
So Sandra was
your daughter-in-law.
500
00:34:05,143 --> 00:34:09,477
Gary was foolish.
So foolish.
501
00:34:09,548 --> 00:34:11,948
And that little tramp...
502
00:34:12,017 --> 00:34:14,349
carried that marriage license
in her purse...
503
00:34:15,754 --> 00:34:18,348
and waved it under Gary's nose...
504
00:34:18,423 --> 00:34:21,688
until the day she died.
505
00:34:27,766 --> 00:34:31,258
##[Jazz][Chattering, Laughter]
506
00:34:35,307 --> 00:34:37,468
[Grady]They were married,Gary and Sandy?
507
00:34:37,542 --> 00:34:40,033
I'm sorry, Grady.
508
00:34:40,112 --> 00:34:43,081
As soon as Gary gets here,
I'm gonna get the truth out of him.
509
00:34:43,148 --> 00:34:45,582
What makes you think that
he's gonna level with you now?
510
00:34:45,650 --> 00:34:48,585
The only reason that Nettie
blurted out the truth...
511
00:34:48,653 --> 00:34:52,953
was because she thought that
with the first wife dead, the second marriage would become valid.
512
00:34:53,024 --> 00:34:57,723
That doesn't make any sense.
I know it doesn't.But Nettie thought that it did.
513
00:34:57,796 --> 00:35:01,857
That's why she was pushing for Gary
to go for a settlement now...
514
00:35:01,933 --> 00:35:04,834
before Cornelia found out
that her own marriage was invalid.
515
00:35:04,903 --> 00:35:08,896
You mean, Gary was paying Sandy
blackmail money?
516
00:35:10,041 --> 00:35:14,102
Oh, boy. You think
you really know somebody.
517
00:35:14,179 --> 00:35:17,410
But you know, that doesn't mean
that Gary killed her.
518
00:35:17,482 --> 00:35:19,416
Grady-
No, no, no, no, no.
519
00:35:19,484 --> 00:35:23,784
If Nettie thought that killing Sandy
would guarantee a profitable divorce from Cornelia-
520
00:35:23,855 --> 00:35:25,789
That sure sounds like
a motive to me.
521
00:35:25,857 --> 00:35:28,917
Well, we'll never find out
just sitting here.
522
00:35:28,994 --> 00:35:30,928
Gary's already an hour late.
523
00:35:34,633 --> 00:35:39,696
Uh, listen, AuntJess,
about before, uh, up in the room,
524
00:35:39,771 --> 00:35:42,433
I'm sorry.
525
00:35:42,507 --> 00:35:44,873
L- I just shot off my mouth and l-
526
00:35:46,645 --> 00:35:52,345
Look, Grady, the day that
you and I can't have a good old-fashioned argument,
527
00:35:52,417 --> 00:35:54,942
I'm gonna start wondering
where I went wrong.
528
00:35:55,020 --> 00:35:57,181
Right.
529
00:36:16,074 --> 00:36:18,008
I remembered...
530
00:36:18,076 --> 00:36:21,842
you always come up here
when you wanna think things over.
531
00:36:21,913 --> 00:36:24,882
No. Just when
I wanna be by myself.
532
00:36:26,751 --> 00:36:29,686
Cornelia, I swear to you,
533
00:36:29,754 --> 00:36:33,690
Sandra and I
were finished years ago.
534
00:36:33,758 --> 00:36:38,058
She didn't mean anything to me.
535
00:36:38,129 --> 00:36:41,360
Cornelia?
Leave me alone, Garrett.
536
00:36:41,433 --> 00:36:45,392
Or better still, just leave.
537
00:36:45,470 --> 00:36:48,564
Spare me having to throw you out.
538
00:36:50,542 --> 00:36:54,103
Look, try to see it from my side.
539
00:36:54,179 --> 00:36:58,081
L- I wanted to tell you about Sandra,
but I was afraid-
540
00:36:58,149 --> 00:37:00,447
afraid of hurting you,
541
00:37:00,518 --> 00:37:02,782
of losing you.
542
00:37:02,854 --> 00:37:06,984
Why do you think I let her
blackmail me all this time?
543
00:37:07,058 --> 00:37:11,119
Careful, Garrett.
That sounds very much like a motive for murder.
544
00:37:11,196 --> 00:37:13,187
What of it?
I didn't kill her.
545
00:37:13,265 --> 00:37:15,961
Darling, don't you seewhat this means?
546
00:37:16,034 --> 00:37:19,800
Now we have a chance
for a real life together.
547
00:37:19,871 --> 00:37:22,066
No secrets, no doubts.
548
00:37:25,744 --> 00:37:29,043
And I do love you, Cornelia,
very much.
549
00:37:31,516 --> 00:37:33,484
No, Garrett.
550
00:37:33,551 --> 00:37:36,145
It's my money
you love very much.
551
00:37:36,221 --> 00:37:40,157
That's the only thing aboutwhich I have no doubts.
552
00:37:42,661 --> 00:37:44,595
Let go of me.
You're blind, Cornelia.

You're so consumed byjealousyyou can't see the truth.
554
00:37:48,300 --> 00:37:52,168
Maybe I should walk away,
but I can't. I love you too much.
555
00:37:52,237 --> 00:37:54,137
You're hurting me.
556
00:37:56,241 --> 00:37:58,971
You know what the trouble is?
You can't walk away...
557
00:37:59,044 --> 00:38:01,444
from the money, the power.
558
00:38:01,513 --> 00:38:03,504
Just give it up, Cornelia.
559
00:38:03,581 --> 00:38:08,609
Let's go away to some little place
upstate away from all this, just the two of us,

something for me.

your way out the front door. Your wife's got you pegged.

Oh, no, no, no.
We just had a long talk on the roof, and everything's smoothed out.

00:38:38,983 --> 00:38:44,478
Look, Havlin's the one that's
goin' out the door, and the only one that's gonna run this place is me.

00:38:44,556 --> 00:38:47,525
Yeah, well,
you're forgettin' something.

There's a murder charge coming down
with your name tag on it.

Well, that's where
you're gonna help me, Herman.

00:38:54,466 --> 00:38:56,661
See, there's 5,000 in this envelope...

something that might put the spotlight on Grady Fletcher.

[Rice]Fletcher? What makes you thinkyou can frame him?
574
00:39:03,808 --> 00:39:07,403
Aw, come on.
Think of the evidence-
575
00:39:07,479 --> 00:39:10,277
finding the body,
goin' back to get that bracelet.
576
00:39:11,549 --> 00:39:13,813
Easy money.
577
00:39:17,455 --> 00:39:20,049
And a raise too?
578
00:39:22,227 --> 00:39:24,718
Sure, Mr. Harper.
579
00:39:24,796 --> 00:39:27,060
No problem.
580
00:39:27,132 --> 00:39:30,863
I'll jog my memory.
See what I come up with.

583
00:39:42,647 --> 00:39:44,581
This belongs to you.
584
00:39:48,820 --> 00:39:53,280
Grady, wait a minute.
You didn't think I was serious about all that stuff, did ya?
585
00:39:53,358 --> 00:39:57,226
Grady, it was a trap.
I was just seein' how far Rice would go.
586
00:39:59,798 --> 00:40:02,232
You know somethin', Gary?
You're good.
587
00:40:03,701 --> 00:40:06,169
Ten, maybe 11 years,and I never saw it.
588
00:40:07,539 --> 00:40:09,973
I guess maybe I'm not too bright.
589
00:40:10,041 --> 00:40:14,444
But the funny thing is,
there was a time when I probably would've taken the rap for you.
590
00:40:16,648 --> 00:40:18,980
But like I said,
591
00:40:19,050 --> 00:40:21,416
I guess maybe I'm not too bright.

but I am starved.
594
00:40:34,532 --> 00:40:36,466
Let's go.

00:40:36,534 --> 00:40:38,661
Aw, gee, I don't-
596
00:40:38,736 --> 00:40:42,331
Oh, come on, come on.
We've got a reservation in 45 minutes for dinner.
597
00:40:42,407 --> 00:40:44,932
I think we should walk.
The exercise will do us good.
598
00:40:45,009 --> 00:40:48,410
But don't you dare bring
that long face with you.
599
00:40:48,480 --> 00:40:53,645
AuntJess, have I ever told you
you are my absolute most favorite person in the whole world?
600
00:40:53,718 --> 00:40:57,449
[Laughs]
Yes, but not often enough.

00:40:57,522 --> 00:40:59,547
[Knocking]
602
00:40:59,624 --> 00:41:02,650
Oh, I'm sorry. I can come back later
to turn down the beds.
603
00:41:02,727 --> 00:41:06,788
No, that's not necessary.
We were just leaving.
604
00:41:13,571 --> 00:41:16,802
Grady, we have a stop
to make first.
605
00:41:21,379 --> 00:41:24,746
I know how busy you are, Mr. Havlin,
and I'm sorry to interrupt,
606
00:41:24,816 --> 00:41:27,876
but I'vejust comefrom Cornelia's office. What now?
607
00:41:27,952 --> 00:41:32,855
Apparently, she's got it
into her head that both you and Gary contrived...
608
00:41:32,924 --> 00:41:36,416
to bring Sandra Clemensinto the hotel. Gary and I?
609
00:41:36,494 --> 00:41:39,327
Well, yes, according to Gary.
610
00:41:39,397 --> 00:41:42,560
How typical of Gary to implicate
someone else in his dirty work.
611
00:41:42,634 --> 00:41:46,934
He also said that, uh,
you were chiefly responsible...
612
00:41:47,005 --> 00:41:50,236
for, uh, rekindling their college romance.
613
00:41:50,308 --> 00:41:53,766
Did I?
Well, that is too much, even for Gary.
614
00:41:53,845 --> 00:41:56,405
Well, he also said-
I can imagine, Mrs. Fletcher.
615
00:41:56,481 --> 00:42:00,577
Did he also happen to tell her
he and Sandra had been married for the past few years?
616
00:42:00,652 --> 00:42:03,120
Married? Oh, no.
617
00:42:03,187 --> 00:42:06,384
Sandra was Gary's mistress,
not his wife.
618
00:42:06,457 --> 00:42:08,391
Wrong, Mrs. Fletcher.They were married.
619
00:42:08,459 --> 00:42:11,053
On June 20, I recall.
620
00:42:11,129 --> 00:42:14,098
Fort Wayne, Indiana.
Oh, but that's ridiculous.
621
00:42:14,165 --> 00:42:19,626
My good woman,
Cornelia had me checking out Sandra's past for weeks.
622
00:42:19,704 --> 00:42:23,231
I know what I'm talking about.
But why didn't you inform Cornelia?
623
00:42:23,308 --> 00:42:26,937
Well, she is a very highly strung woman.
What point would there be in upsetting her?
624
00:42:27,011 --> 00:42:29,070
No, I'm sorry.
625
00:42:29,147 --> 00:42:32,844
I can't accept such
a bizarre notion without proof.
626
00:42:32,917 --> 00:42:36,819
Would a copy of Gary and Sandra's
marriage certificate satisfy you?
627
00:42:48,166 --> 00:42:50,100
Oh, my goodness.
[Chuckles]
628
00:42:50,168 --> 00:42:54,935
You are serious. This isn't a joke.
It came in the mail this morning from the Fort Wayne Hall of Records.
629
00:42:55,006 --> 00:42:59,636
Cornelia and I haven't been able
to see each other today. That's why I haven't told her about it.
630
00:42:59,711 --> 00:43:02,737
I see.
The certificate is legitimate, Mrs. Fletcher.
631
00:43:02,814 --> 00:43:05,408
I assure you.
Oh, I'm quite sure that it is.
632
00:43:05,483 --> 00:43:08,919
But it didn't come in the mail
this morning, Mr. Havlin.
633
00:43:08,987 --> 00:43:13,947
The fact is, you took it from
Sandra Clemens' purse the night that you killed her.
634
00:43:14,959 --> 00:43:19,828
I see. First, I am
a home wrecker, and now I am a murderer. Incredible.
635
00:43:19,897 --> 00:43:23,856
Grady saw Sandra scribble
a telephone number on this envelope...
636
00:43:23,935 --> 00:43:26,096
a few hours before she was killed.
637
00:43:26,170 --> 00:43:30,834
Gary's mother told methat Sandra kept the licensein her purse at all times...
638
00:43:30,908 --> 00:43:35,311
to hold over his head if he failed
to meet her blackmail demands.
639
00:43:35,380 --> 00:43:37,746
Grady?
640
00:43:41,953 --> 00:43:45,320
That's the envelope, AuntJess.
I'm sure of it.
641
00:43:45,390 --> 00:43:50,384
The only reason you didn't destroy
the certificate was because you wanted to blackmail Gary yourself.
642
00:43:50,461 --> 00:43:53,624
That is why you killed Sandra,isn't it? This is preposterous.
643
00:43:53,698 --> 00:43:57,862
The night she was killed,
you claimed you'd been asleep in your room for hours.
644
00:43:57,935 --> 00:44:00,733
You even went to the troubleofleaving your phone off the hook...
645
00:44:00,805 --> 00:44:04,536
so someone would have to
come to your room and see that you'd been sleeping.
646
00:44:04,609 --> 00:44:08,670
You said you'd been asleepfor three hours,but your clock read 10:30.
647
00:44:08,746 --> 00:44:13,547
If you had been asleep
since 7:30, the night maid who came in at 8:00...
648
00:44:13,618 --> 00:44:19,056
would never have come into the roomto turn down the bed and leavea chocolate and a fresh flower.
649
00:44:19,123 --> 00:44:24,356
It shouldn't be too difficult
to learn which maid prepared your bed that evening.
650
00:44:30,568 --> 00:44:32,593
Every time...
651
00:44:32,670 --> 00:44:35,867
I asked Cornelia for a raise,
652
00:44:35,940 --> 00:44:37,874
she turned me down.
653
00:44:37,942 --> 00:44:42,572
Then when I found out
about this marriage, I was going to tell her all about it.
654
00:44:42,647 --> 00:44:44,706
I let her know everything
that happens here.
655
00:44:44,782 --> 00:44:47,182
Then I thought,"Don't be a fool.
656
00:44:47,251 --> 00:44:49,685
"This is your ticket.
657
00:44:49,754 --> 00:44:52,314
Your golden goose, Mark. "
658
00:44:52,390 --> 00:44:54,449
When Sandra started comingto this hotel...
659
00:44:54,525 --> 00:44:57,494
I saw her change...
660
00:44:57,562 --> 00:45:00,463
from a hick computer processor...
661
00:45:00,531 --> 00:45:04,763
into a very expensively
pulled-together lady.
662
00:45:04,836 --> 00:45:07,270
It wasn't hard to guesswhere the money was coming from.
663
00:45:07,338 --> 00:45:12,105
I went to her room that night
with a very fair offer...
664
00:45:12,176 --> 00:45:16,112
that she split Gary's paymentswith me 50-50.
665
00:45:16,180 --> 00:45:18,842
She laughed in my face.
666
00:45:18,916 --> 00:45:22,579
We argued.I hit her hard.
667
00:45:22,653 --> 00:45:26,817
She accidently knocked her headagainst the dresser and collapsed.
668
00:45:26,891 --> 00:45:30,327
She was barely conscious,and I thought,
669
00:45:30,394 --> 00:45:33,625
"Why not finish her offand have it all?"
670
00:45:40,204 --> 00:45:43,833
If she hadn't picked up
that phone call, it would have been perfect.
671
00:45:48,746 --> 00:45:53,445
Feeling okay?
Great, but I'll feel even better once I get out of this place.
672
00:45:53,518 --> 00:45:56,681
- Hi. Fletcher. 4540, checking out.
- Okay.
673
00:45:56,754 --> 00:46:00,554
Oh, speaking of numbers, did you
ever find out what number Sandy wrote down on that envelope?
674
00:46:00,625 --> 00:46:03,219
Yes. It was her periodontist's office.
675
00:46:03,294 --> 00:46:06,786
They were calling to reschedule
an appointment with her. [Cornelia]Jessica!
676
00:46:06,864 --> 00:46:08,798
Oh, good morning.
Good morning.
677
00:46:08,866 --> 00:46:12,495
Good morning!
I do hope that you've had a pleasant stay.
678
00:46:12,570 --> 00:46:15,334
Well, uh, yes.
679
00:46:15,406 --> 00:46:19,570
Garrett and I had
a long, hard talk last night,
680
00:46:19,644 --> 00:46:23,740
and, well, we've straightened
things out.
681
00:46:23,815 --> 00:46:27,148
I've come to realize
I've been a foolish woman,
682
00:46:27,218 --> 00:46:31,211
and, well, we're gonna give itanother try.
683
00:46:31,289 --> 00:46:35,851
Well, I can't imagine two people
more ideally suited to each other.
684
00:46:35,927 --> 00:46:40,296
Hey, pal,
now that Havlin's confessed,
685
00:46:40,364 --> 00:46:42,525
how'd you like to be my best man?
686
00:46:42,600 --> 00:46:47,299
- Aw, gee, I'd really like to,
but I'm gonna be busy that day. - Well, I haven't told you the day.
687
00:46:47,371 --> 00:46:49,862
I know.
688
00:46:49,941 --> 00:46:53,433
- Mr. Fletcher, your bill.
- Uh, I'll take care of that, Nancy.
689
00:46:53,511 --> 00:46:56,844
No, no, thanks.
I can handle this myself.
690
00:46:59,517 --> 00:47:03,920
Twenty-five hundred dollars?
For two nights and a lousy meal at a restaurant?
691
00:47:03,988 --> 00:47:08,254
- I'm terribly sorry, Mr. Fletcher.
There's been a mistake. - Thank you.
692
00:47:08,326 --> 00:47:12,160
They forgot to add
your restaurant charge. Excuse me.
693
00:47:12,210 --> 00:47:16,760
