- More coffee, Lois?
- Thank you, Miss Logan.

- Mary?
- No, thanks.

Dennis is rather late this morning

Perhaps he's already gone out

Without his breakfast?

He may have needed to see someone
in the village

Well, I wonder where he can be.

He's probably still in his room,
sleeping it off.

Mary!

He didn't get in till nearly four.

Didn't you hear him?

No.

That's surprising.

He made enough noise.

That remark was uncalled for, Mary

What?

About the noise he made,
or the condition he was in?

Both.

Didn't you hear him?

I did not.

Then I beg your pardon.

Yours too, Lois.

Oh, there's no need.

I'm sure there's a perfectly simple explanation.

Doubtless.

I say, have any of you see the papers?

Been looking all over.
Not a sign of it, most strange.

Is this what you're after?
Oh, well done!

Now I was beginning to think
one of the servant had a sneak of it

Dennis, you know none of the staff
would ever do such a thing

- Just a joke.
- I'm sorry to have put you on so much trouble

- Sure you're finish with it?
- Quite sure.

Jolly good.

The racing results are at the back.

Hello, hunny bunch!

Hipp oats Dennis,
or scrambled eggs?

I'll have neither, thanks!

Or some of Mrs. Holloway's excellent porrige?

No, nothing for me, really, uh...

Perhaps I'll just have
a cup coffee

- Only coffe?
- Black, please.

Are you not feeling well?

I'm fine,
maybe I'm a bit off colour.

Perhap you got a touch of flu.

Perhaps.

- Oh, I hope not.
- There's a lot of it about.

Thanks!

- Parcel just come for you, Miss Hargreaves.
- Thank you, Ester.

What is that?

Oh, Chocolates!!

- Look!!
- I say!

Who is it from, dear ?

There's no name.

And there's doesn't seem to be a card.

- That's odd...
- Perhaps you have an unknown admirer.

- Dennis!
- Apart from me, that is.

Well, whoever they're from,
they look lovely.

- Here Mary, try one.
- No, thanks.

- Oh, do!
- No, really.

Worried about your figure, Mary?

Well... just one.

- Miss Logan?
- Oh, thank you dear!

- Dennis?
- Oh, not for me thanks!

- Oh, really?
- No, no, I must run, err...

Fact is, I have to go and see ....

A man about a horse?

Something like that, yes.

Save a few for me.

Shall we expect you for lunch, Dennis?

Why not? I shan't be long,
now ...

Goodbye.

Now, which should I choose?

- Hard or soft ?
- They are absolutely delicious.

I think... soft.

Ummm... scrumptious.

Rose, do you think
this powder's the right shade?

Oh, yes!

You've got to be careful, when you've got
particular colouring like mine.

- Oh, it's georgeous!
- You think so?

Yes.

It's not bad.

It's depraved, and disgusting.

I wasn't talking to you.

You're a painted woman, my girl.

Mark my words,
you'll come to no good.

What do you think Mrs. Halloway?

Don't bother me now Ester,
I've got too much to do.

- Bugger!! - You be careful,
young mistress doesn't catch you

with all that harlot's muck
on your face.

What? Miss Hargreaves?
She don't know what day it is

Mr. Radcliffe does, tough!

Yesterday, he said I looked peachy...

- Oh, what you ...
- You're just jealous!

You ought to use make up, Rose.

- Oh, no!
- I mean it.

Why don't you try it, sometime?

I don't think so.

I tell you what,
I'll lend you some of mine.

- Will you?
- Leave the girl alone.

What's it got to do with you?

- It's unseemly, and against the will of God
- Huh!

They're ringing for you, Ester

I'm not deaf!

Give you a tip,
suck your lips a bit.

What?

Suck your lips. Like this.

What for?

Makes them look redder.

More desirable, see?

Ester!!

Oh, alright, alright!

You can all say your prayers now.

Ester !

- We must sent for the Police.
- No!

- In Heaven's name, why not?
- Just don't feel justified.

But justified after what happened--

- Dr. Burton--
- Listen to me Miss Hargreaves,

- Lois, this isn't the first time.
- I know.

- Something has to be done.
- But the Police--

You owe to everyone.
Least of all to yourself.

I'm sorry, I can't!

- Then I won't be responsible.
- You don't have to be.

My dear girl, you're my patient

and a very dear friend.

Perhaps there's another way...

Another way?

Yes.

One equally as good,
and much safer.

I thought of something
that doesn't involve the police.

Got you!

Look at that!

- Who is it? -The girl.
- Oh let me see it.

- Are there no holes there?
- Oh, please!

- Looks to me a frightfully nice girl.
- Let me see!

Damn, alright!

Albert's giving her the usual tosh.

The job is sir, madam

We've never been so busy.

You could say we're up to all race

Oh!

Ye ah err....

Scotland Yard on the telephone every minute,

They are "santé" (Sûreté)

That's the French Police,
you know.

Or they'd be pisterin'
on something rotten.

Oh dear!

Yeah the bush is just as bad
as most of his pinned

Oh, perhaps I better go!

Ah no,
I didn't say it was impossible.

We might be able to ....
squeeze you in?

Oh, I'd be most awfully grateful!

She's not bad.

Not bad?

And her clothes are
simply the latest shout.

She's perfectly lovely,

obviously frightfully sympathetic ...

and beautiful,

and distictly inteligent,

without being too, errm ...
saucy

Your powers of observation are
distinctly clean this morning.

This case is gonna require
a very careful handling.

I shall be ....

sophisticated, suave, err...

- distingué ...
- What? All at once?

I know this Tuppence,

I am captain of the ship,

and don't you forget it.

Lets have her in.

Entrez!

Miss Lois Hargreaves, Sir.

How do you do,
Miss Hargreaves.

That will be all, Albert.

May I present ....
Miss Robinson.

- How do you do?
- How do you do?

Miss Robinson is my
amanuensis (transcriber)

Thank you, Albert.

- Won't you take a seat?
- Thank you.

Get out, Albert!

Now . We shall not be
serious or formal,

you will simply tell me
all about it.

And we should then discuss
the best way

to help you out from
your present little

"camp de états"

You are very kind, Mr. Blunt.

Pas de rien.(You're welcome)

Excuse me, but
are you a foreigner?

Not exactly.

But my investigations
carry me abroad a good deal.

My methods are those of the French ...

Sûreté

Oh...

Your name is Lois Hargreaves

I live in a great

rambling old fashioned house
called Thurnly Grange.

It is in the heart of the country,

and extremely isolated.

Altough the little village of Thurnly
is close by.

Ah, I've never felt lonely there,

indeed I much prefer
country to town life.

Ah, how wise.

if only I, err--

oh, but let that pass.

Please, continue Miss Hargreaves.

About a week ago,

I got a box of chocolates,
sent through the post.

There was nothing to indicate
who they were from,

naturally, I passed them round.

Everyone who'd eaten the chocolates,

was taken seriously ill.

Indeed?

My doctor,

Doctor Burton, had
the remaining chocolate analysed.

Mr. Blunt,

those chocolates contained arsenic!

Well not enough to kill anyone,

but quite enough to make them ill.

How extraordinary!

Doctor Burton was most concerned.

You see this his was the third occurrence
of the kind, in our neighborhood.

In each case,

a large house was selected,

and the inmates taken ill,

after eating the mysterious chocolates.

It looked as though someone was playing

a particularly fiendish practical joke.

Is that Doctor Burton's opinion?

He puts it down to
Socialist agitation,

there are one or two malcontents
in the village.

Do you agree with him?

It seems to me rather absurd.

Quite.

Miss Hargreaves,

Why haven't you gone
to the police about this?

I hate the idea of the fuss,

and you know the publicity.

Anyway I know
our local inspector,

I can't imagine him
ever finding out anything.

I see.

Mr. Blunt,

err, Miss Robinson,

in your advertisement

you say a great deal about discretion.

I take that to mean
that you would not...

Well, you would not
make anything public

without my consent.

Miss Hargreaves,

I think you do as well
to tell us everything;

and everything will be kept
in the strictest confidence.

Very well.

I have a reason for not
going to the police.

The box of chocolate was sent by someone

living in my own house.

How do you know?

It's very simple.

I have a habit,

it's foolish really,

of drawing something, a sort of

doodle, whenever
I have a pencil in my hand

It's a little design,

like three fish intertwined.

Well,

sometime ago

I received a parcel
of silk stockings from London.

I had been marking something
in the newspaper at the time,

and, without thinking,

I began to draw on the parcel
before I opened it.

I tought no more about it.

But,

when I examined the paper

in which the chocolates had been wrapped,

I... I found

You found what?

Miss Hargreaves ...

This.

Oh!

This is most serious.

I know!

I ask you again Miss Hargreaves,

why didn't you go to the police?

Because I may want the whole thing hushed up.

- Whom do you suspect, Miss Hargreaves?
- No one,

but there are possibilities.

Quite.

Please describe the household to us.

First,

I must tell you that
I was brought up by my aunt,

Lady Radcliffe, who's very wealthy.

Her husband made a big fortune,
and was knighted.

But he died some years ago,

that's when I went to live
with my aunt Lucy.

I was her only living relative,

a part from Dennis Radcliffe,

her husband's nephew.

I have always called him cousin,

but of course he's nothing of the kind.

Go on.

Aunty Lucy always said she intended to

leave her fortune to Dennis.

It was Radcliffe money, she said.

and ought to go to a Radcliffe.

However,

Sometimes ago they quarrelled over some

silly debts that he had run up,
I think.

And when my aunt died,

I was astonished to find
she'd left everything to me.

Oh, it was a terrible blow
to Dennis,

and I felt badly about it.

I wanted to give him the money
but I knew he wouldn't take it.

However,

as soon as I was 21

I made a will
leaving it all to him.

So if ...

if anything should happen,

at least Dennis will come into his own.

And when ....

may I ask,

were you

twenty one?

Just three weeks ago.

Hmmmm.

Miss Hargreaves,

the members of your household?

Servants or others?

Everyone.

Well ...

Most of the servants have been
with us for ages.

There is Mrs. Holloway, the cook.

Oh she's rather quiet and works very hard,

And then there's Rose, her daughter.

She's very shy

and keeps mostly to herself.

Hannah was my aunt's maid,

she's quite old and rather religious.

The parlormaid is Esther Quant.

I don't know much about her
she's only just joined us,

but she seems very nice.

As for us,

Miss Logan was Aunt Lucy's companion,

oh she runs the house for me.

Then there is Captain Radcliffe.

Dennis you know,
whom I told you about.

And a girl called Mary Chilcott

who was staying with us.

We were at school together.
She's my...

oldest and dearest friend.

And ....

that's all.

Hmmm

Err, so I take it
you're not suspicious of,

err...

anyone in particular.

You are only afraid
it may turn out to be

well err...

not a servant,

shall we say?

Yes.

It's clear what's to be done.

We must be on the spot.

- Oh well, when you'll come down?
- Tomorrow.

there is no time to loose.

One thing more, Miss Hargreaves

not a word to anyone

of what you have just told me.

- I promise.
- Thank you.

Oh Albert

- show Miss Hargreaves out, would you?
Very good Mr. Blunt.

Thank you.

I'm most grateful

We'll see you tomorrow.

Good bye.

Au revoir, Mr. Blunt.

Oh ... err, bon voyage

Miss Hargreaves.

- What do you think?
- I don't like it.

Especially the chocolates having so

.... little arsenic in them.

Well don't you see?

those sent round the neighborhood
were just sort of a blind

To establish the idea of
a local maniac

so when this poor girl is poisoned,
it would seem

the same thing.

After this wrapping paper

no one will ever guess

they were actually sent by someone
in the same house.

So you think it's a deliberate plot

against Lois Hargreaves?
- I'm certain of it.

I remember reading about
Lady Radcliffe's will

that girl's come into
terrific amount of money.

Which make it look bad
for Dennis Radcliffe.

He gains most by her death,

She must love him
an awful lot.

Why darling it's obvious,

That's why she determined
not to go to the police.

Or in that case,
why doesn't he marry her?

I don't know.

Much safer and simpler
than trying to kill her.

Unless of course he's already involved

with somebody else.

Show a leg?

Oh, darling.

Now I brought your breakfast
and the morning paper.

Hot off the press.

I've been up for ages.

So energetic.

Right,

and we've a journey to make, remember?

I suppose this is all a deep plot
of the night need my dress

Past eight you know

How so early

Now I've run your bath,

oh, let's be on the road
as soon as possible.

Probably there won't be much traffic

but you never know.

Besides, I'm, err,

rather concerned about, err,
- Tommy!

What is it?

Sudden outbreak of ptomaine poisoning.

Those dead so far ...

Miss Lois Hargreaves,
the owner of the house,

the parlormaid Esther Quant.

Seriously ill,

Miss Rachel Logan,

Lois Hargreaves ... dead.

Oh Tuppence.

That girl!

That perfectly ripping girl!

Something about this house
even in daylight.

Don't you feel it?

I feel only the need to

confront that dirty blackguard Radcliffe.

Come on.

You must be Rose Holloway.

Sir?

Look here, I'm not a reporter or anything,

Miss Hargreaves came to see me yesterday
and asked me to come down here.

Who else is in the house?

Dr. Burton and Miss Chilcott.

She's making all the arrangements.

I should like to see Dr. Burton at once.

Thank you.

This way please, Sir.

If you wouldn't mind waiting.

Thank you.

How nasty !

More like a jungle than a conservatory.

So dark and oppressive

you see the whole place is rotty.

I wonder who looks after it?

Can I help you?

Dr. Burton?

Yes.

My card.

Are you Mr. Blunt?

This is my ...

assistant

- Miss Robinson.
- How do you do?

Miss Hargreaves called on me yesterday,

about the poisoned chocolates.

At her request
I came down to investigate

Alas .... I'm too late.

Under the circumstances,
there is no need for reticence.

But for the episode of the chocolates,

I might have believed
these deaths been caused

by severe ptomaine poisoning.

One unusually virulent kind.

There was gastro-intestinal inflammation
and haemorrhage.

As it is, I'm taking
the fig paste to be analized

Oh fig paste?

Did you not know?

The cause of the outbreak was

some fig paste sandwhiches served
with the tea yesterday.

The poison, if poison it is,
is something potent and swift.

Arsenic?

No.

something much more virulent.

It looks like a powerful vegetable toxin.

Oh! Vegetable toxin.

Where is Dennis Radcliffe?

Upstairs.

I should like to see him.

- Mr. Blunt,
- and at once!

Very well.

Mr. Blunt, I really should tell you.

Captain Radcliffe died
at five o'clock this morning.

You must be Mr. Blunt and Miss Robinson.

Lois told me, you see.

May we talk somewhere else?

I'm so glad you're here

it's all too terrible.

Please sit down.

Thank you.

Is there anything I can tell you?

Yes

The fig paste, that you had
for tea yesterday,

where did it come from?

From London, we often have it.

No one suspected anything.

Personally, I dislike the flavour,

which is why I ate
none of the sandwiches.

But Lois did,
and Miss Logan.

And what about the maid?

Esther Quant?

She must've take some later.

She was a greedy girl.

How is Miss Logan?

Dr. Burton seems to think
she'll recover.

He says that because she's older,

the poisons had less effect.

She's still very weak, though.

What I can't understand is
how Dennis,

Captain Radcliffe, was affected.

He wasn't with you for tea then?

No. He was out.

What time did he return?

At about a quarter to seven.

Did you see him?

Yes.

Miss Chilcott,

were you in love
with Captain Radcliffe?

In love with him?

Yes. Yes, that's what I said.

Please, Miss Chilcott,
this is very important.

He was rather...

wild and impulsive,

and I suppose,
not very trustworthy.

But...

He could be awfully
amusing, sometimes.

He was like a little boy,

very generous and kind.

Thank you.

Now tell us, Miss Chilcott,

what exactly happened,
last night?

Dennis had been out,
for a walk.

he usually did,
just before dinner.

It was getting dark,

I was in the conservatory.

Giving up the good work?

Well I have to do something,
to keep myself occupied.

Oh! Not as bad as all that,
is it?

- Sometimes.
- Shame.

- Like a drink?
- No, thanks.

But don't let me stop you.

I won't.

- Dennis.
- Hmmm?

When are you going to
tell Lois?

About us.

Nothing really to tell,
is there?

If you say not.

Probably not as much
as about you and the parlormaid.

Esther?

Don't say you're jealous?

I think I am.

Well there's no need.

Dennis,

you know you really are

a bit of a rotter.
- Oh, I say!!

You sure
you won't have one?

Quite sure.

Look old girl,
don't you worry,

everything'll turn up
for the best.

- Well let's ...
- Bound to.

Happy days

He went upstairs,

not long after, he ...

fell ill.

Thank you Miss Chilcott.

- You've ....
- been most helpfull,

We'll, errm, continue our talk later

Yes. Thanks so much.

- What was in there about?
- The kitchen! Quick!

Stop!

Are those yesterday's things?

Oh, I'm sorry madam

but what-- with the horrible bussiness...

Now listen Rose,

there was a glass
in the conservatory,

Have you washed it?

Well, where is it?

- What? Here?
- No, no no no!

Thank you.
Come on!

Carry on, Rose!

There's still some drops in it.
What luck!

Well done, darling.

Lets get Dr. Burton
to analyze it later.

Yes, then it will tell us,
who put the poison in there. Will it?

What next?

Hannah.

Miss Macpherson!

Let hot burning coals fall upon them :

let them be cast into the fire;

that they never
rise up again.

May we speak to you, please?

There is no time,

no time,

time is running short, I say.

I will follow upon
mine enemies,

and overtake them.

Neither will
I turn again

till I have destroyed them.

So it is written.

I am the scourge...
of the Lord.

Mad as a hatter.

Go out from here.

The time is at hand!

I am the flail of the Lord.

The wind bloweth where it listeth -

so shall I destroy.

Thank you very much!

I wonder how long she's been like that?
I don't know.

Look at this.

It's funny reading for dotty
old housemaid, wouldn't you say?

Materia Medica

Edward Logan

Logan ... Logan

Logan ...
do you think she's a relative?

Let's find out.

Yes. It was one of
my ... father's books

He was a ...
great doctor.

One of the pioneers of

serum therapeutics

You must have been
very proud of him.

I was.

Miss Logan,

the maid Hannah

is she quite ...

mm, I mean ...

quite right in the head?

Oh, yes!

She ... she's very religious but

there's nothing wrong with that.

And that book,

did you lend it to Hannah?

To Hannah?

No, indeed.

Oh, Dr. Burton injected you.

I'm afraid he's insisted,

I seemed to have been
very ill.

And yet we found

this book in ....
Hannah's room.

Disgraceful!

I'll not have the servants
touching my things.

Where ought it to be
Miss Logan?

On the bookshelf in my sitting-room-or--

stay.

I... I lent it to Mary.

To Mary?

The dear girl is very interested in ...

plants .... of all kinds, and...

She's taken over the care of
conservatory.

I believe she's made ...

one or two little experiments.

Oh!...

Some herbal teas can be ...

very restorative and

wonderful for a cold in the head
I'm prone to, and

so is Dennis.

Poor Dennis.

His father was my ...
first cousin you know

The conservatory,

who else looks after it,
apart of Mary Chilcott?

Hannah does,
occasionally, I believe.

I see.

Well, thank you Miss Logan.

Forgive us for tiring you.

Yes, thank you
and just rest.

Get well quicky!

Thank you, my dear.

I hate this house!

Well lets have the drive to dr. Burton's

to clear our heads

and our minds?

So many possibilities,

and yet the obvious one is dead,
- Dennis Radcliffe

He must've had something
for those girls to fall in love with him.

You know, the more I hear...

the more I'm convinced
he was a swine.

The worst of it is ....
I kind of am feeling responsible.

I mean that somehow,
I could have prevented it.

That's foolish

and morbid.

Lois Hargreaves refused
to go to the police and

if she hadn't come to us,
she would have done nothing at all.

And the result would
have been the same

Yes, you're right.

I swear to you
we're gonna solve this case.

I don't know how.

But we will, even it'll kills us.

For that poor girl's sake.

It's not going to be easy.

I know.

Dr. Burton's still working
on the fig paste analysis, he'll

have the sample's result
as soon as he can.

Good.

What puzzles me most
is the timing of the death.

Timing?

Dennis Radcliffe was murdered
after the others. Why?

That's easy,

he wasn't there.

As soon as he returned,
he was poisoned.

Maybe ...

You don't sound very convinced

It just that somehow, I feel that
timing is the key to the whole thing

and if only I could get
the right perspective...

What if Lois Hargreaves
wasn't the real target?

What on earth do you mean?

supposing her death was a blight,

like the chocolates.

Dennis Radcliffe ...

was the intended victim all along.

Is that possible?

Possible, not very probable.

You're forgetting the money.

Yes... that's true.

And Lois' fortune is the...
obvious motive.

The obvious is the awful right.

- Tuppence
- Hmmm

Did you like Mary Chilcott?

Yes, I think so,

why?

Don't you think it odd,
that she didn't seem more upset

I mean she was supposed to be
Lois Hargreaves' best friend

Of course that could be a point
into her favor.

I mean if she is the murderer,
wouldn't she make a point of being more upset?

Here

lay it on rather thick?

I suppose so

- Oh, dear!
- Not getting far, are we?

No...

I wonder what Esther Quant
was really like.

Young, good looking?

You know what Mary Chilcott
called her?

Greedy.

Obviously flat
it would be for Dennis Radcliffe.

I wonder if her interest
was returned?

We shall probably never know.

The devil is strangled it all here.

Well, we've talked and talked

and we're no near a solution,
neither when we started.

Come on!

Oh, must we?

Yes, we must.

You know there's one person
we musn't forget

- Hannah.
- Hannah?

People do all sorts of things
when they suffer from ...

religious mania.

Hmm ....
Must come on awfully rapidly

I believe it does.

You know you go on

muttering bits from the Bible
in your bedroom for years

and then suddenly, you go right over the line
and become violent.

Well, you saw.

Oh, she wasn't exactly violent.

Near enough.

I suppose there is more evidence
against her, than anyone else.

Yes--

perspective doesn't seem right.

Tuppence ...

We're getting nowhere.

Unless ....

I have an idea.

Oh, Rose!

Ask your mother if she can spare us a moment,
would you please?

My mother?

And you come with her too.

- I could ....
- We shall be in the conservatory.

Oh, sorry of we
startled you.

You didn't.

I thought you've gone down
to the village.

We're back.

I gather you're fond of plants,
Miss Chilcott?

- Not really.
- Oh?

and yet you look after ...

all these.

Well someone has to,
otherwise they'd run wild.

Mr. Blunt.

Are you any near to solving
this terrible business?

I believe so.

Are you quite certain that
it really is a question of foul play?

What else could it be?

Well a genuine case of
food poisoning?

That hardly explains
the death of Captain Radcliffe, though.

Does it, Miss Chilcott?

No.

- You wanted us .....
- Sir.

Oh yes, Mrs. Halloway, thank you.
We shan't keep you long.

Oh no, stay please, Miss Chilcott

We should like you to hear.

Mrs. Halloway ...

what was your opinion of
Esther Quant?

Esther?

Well she wasn't with us for long,

Was she a good girl?

Oh come along, Mrs. Halloway,
it's a perfectly simple question.

That's not for me to say.

What about you, Rose?
Did you like her?

Yes

You weren't perhaps...
a little jealous of her, I suppose

Jealous?

Why should I be?

She was pretty thick
with Captain Radcliffe, wasn't she?

Well, wasn't she?

What're you saying, Mr. Blunt?

That Rose like ...

every other young female
in this house, might

well, have been in love
with Captain Radcliffe

and might, well, have become
unbearably jealous.

- That's not true.
- Isn't it ?

- Are you accusing my daughter?
- Oh not accusing, Mrs. Halloway,

merely suggesting.

and you must admit that it is, err,
a possibility.

Well, Rose?

I did like Captain Radcliffe,

and Esther ...

was a bit fast

- There was nothing more to it.
- Are you sure?

Captain Radcliffe was a gentleman.

You ought to be ashamed
even to think such a thing, Sir.

that my Rose would ...

- could ever ...
- You seem very concerned, Mrs. Halloway

concerned, of course I'm concerned.

Rose is all I've got in the world,

- I'd do everything for her.
- Even ...

murder?

Oh come now, Mrs. Halloway

If your only daughter is being trifled with

by a blackguard,

wouldn't you do anything
to protect her?

- even kill?
- Mr. Blunt that's insane!
- Is it?

What do you say Mrs. Halloway?

Nothing. I'm saying nothing.

Very well,
that would be all,

for the moment.

Thank you both.

That was a bit brutal, wasn't it?

So is murder, Miss Chilcott.

- Wouldn't you say?
- Yes, but acusing them like that,

it's ridiculous.

Hmm possibly,
especially when there's more ...

obvious suspect at hand.

You mean me, I suppose?

Come in.

Messenger brought this,
from Dr. Burton

Thank you, Rose.

I trust it's good news,

if you have any further
flights of fancy,

I should be in my room.

That girl's a cool one,
she gave nothing away.

Hmm, you're a bit hard on the others,
weren't you?

It had to be done, darling.

Ha! Let's see what
dr. Burton has to say

"Dear Mr. Blunt,

there is reason to believe that
the poison employed was ...

ricin.

Ricin?

A vegetable....
toxic albumose

of tremendous potency.

Please keep this to yourselves.

Ricin?!

Do... Do you know anything about this,
Tuppence?

You used to be pretty well up
in these things

I think you get it
from Castor Oil plant

Never did take kindly to Castor Oil,
now I hate it more than ever.

you get the ricin from the seeds
of the castor oil plant.

yes it's not too difficult to extract

And pretty deadly Dr. Burton said

Look!

- Is that?
- Castor Oil ...

plant?

anyone could extract the poison?

Oh .... providing they knew herbs

Could Hanna have done it?

I wouldn't thought so

Unless ...

The book

It was open on the table
with the page turned at

Now then, let's see...

Ricin.

Yes!

I thought so.

I think we better have another word
with a Miss Macpherson .

Tommy, would you leave this to me?

Just this once.

Fair enough, Tuppence.

You shall be Captain of the Ship

Just for a change.

Where are you going?

I want to ask Miss Logan
a question,

only one.

Miss Logan,

Miss ... Logan.

- Is that you, my dear?
- Yes.

Have you slept well?

As well as can be expected.

We're trully sorry
to disturb you.

Never mind.

- Thank you Mr. Blunt.
- Not at all.

Well now ...
Tell me,

Have you been able to
find anything out?

Yes, yes I think we have.

My dear, you're much too
attractive to be a detective.

You're so young!

And being young, I happened to work
in a hospital during the war

- Cruel time
- Yes

But it told me something about
serum therapeutics.

poisons and antidotes,

how they save lives

and how they can kill.

Mr. Blunt, would you mind?
Of course.

You're most kind.

Please go on, my dear.

I also happen to know
something about Ricin.

For example
when it's taken in small doses,

antiricin is formed

and immunity is produced.

Is that really so?

Yes, indeed.

It's discovery paved the way
for the whole science of serum therapeutics.

It's your father's work,
in fact.

My father?

You knew that, Miss Logan

you knew that very well.

And that's why you sistematically
injected your self

with Ricin.

- What?
- Let go my hand .
- Not yet

You did this Miss Logan,
not Dr. Burton.

You helped your father with his work

You knew all about Ricin,

You injected yourself to build up

antiricin.

- And that's how you came to
let yourself be poisoned with the rest.
- No!

You chose the day when
Dennis Radcliffe would be out.

It would never do for him
to be poisoned at the same time,

or he might die before Lois Hargreaves.
- You're mad!

The timing was crucial,
wasn't it?

So long as she died first,

he would inherit her fortune.

but at his death
the money would pass to you ...

- Mr. Blunt help me!
- his next of kin.

It's not true !
Oh yes it is.

You told us yourself,
his father was your first cousin, remember?

The real truth is ...

you gave yourself away.

You're mad, I tell you!

Truth has spoken,

for Lord is truth

the almighty is.

There is the wicked one!

I saw her reading the book,
and smiling to herself,

and I knew.

I've found the book
and the page!!

But it meant nothing to me.

But the voice of the Lord speak on to me,

and it was good!
- Take her away! Take her away!

She hated my mistress,
her Ladyship.

She was always a viper,
jealous and envious.

She hated my own dear
sweet Miss Lois.

But the wicked shall perish,

the fire of the Lord
shall consume them in.

Is she dead?

The shock must have been
too much for her

- I have suceeded.
- I'm sorry.

We will notify the police.
