All language subtitles for Hitchcock s01e16 What Really Happened.eng

Good evening, knights and ladies.

I believe we have at last devised the
perfect television show.

These two gentlemen are its leading
characters.

They are a father and son team,
defenders of the underdog.

Each week they find a new maiden in
distress, or a new dog, as the case may

and thus we have a completely different
story, yet retain the same magic

ingredients.

Being father and son not only gives them
some excellent Freudian conflicts, but

also enables them to gang up on a single
opponent.

Of course, the son furnishes the fire
enthusiasm, while the father is the

of the team.

In each and every story, we have a
dramatic courtroom scene in the court of

Arthur. Our heroes ride horseback for
the benefit of Western fans.

And for a little extra fun, I have
quietly sharpened the lances, thus

us some excellent operating room scenes.
I don't see how it can miss. Of course,

just as no rose is complete without
thorns, so no television show is

without the following.

you turn the car around, please?

Thank you.

Eve!

Eve!

That kid has been in here again.

I'm sorry, Howard.

Look, if his mother can't control him, I
won't have him in the house at all. I'm

sure it wasn't Maddie's fault.

You're always making excuses for her,
aren't you?

And Gilly. You know, he's a little
nuisance.

Well, he doesn't have any friends of his
own, and he can't stay with Addie all

the time. She has her work to do.

I just can't stand having other people's
children around.

Of course, it would be different if we
had one of our own.

Howard... I know.

You want Addie here, so I guess I'll
have to put up with the boy.

You know, Eve, Addie is a luxury.

We already have three servants, and we
don't really need a housekeeper.

Excuse me.

Oh, has Gilly been in here again?

Yes, he's been in here again.

I'm sorry, Mr. Radin.

He's been with me in the kitchen all
afternoon.

He must have wandered off while I was
counting the laundry.

Auntie, you like working for us here,
don't you? You get a good wage.

Your boy's going to a very good school.

You both have a home.

All I ask is that you just keep him out
of my study.

I'm sorry, Mr. Radin. It won't happen
again. Please.

Please see that it doesn't.

coach. He put Tommy Harris on third base
and I pitched. I got everybody out

except John Casey.

Well, he's a big boy.

He's almost 12.

Of course he is. If I do all right in
practice tomorrow, I'll pitch against

Martin's on Thursday.

Well, that's wonderful, Gilly.

Hey, Mom, you know what I got on my
arithmetic test?

Now what? I got 92.

Well, that makes me very proud.

Mom? Hmm?

You know what?

What? I like this room. It's so pretty.

Look, Gilly, you've got to be out of
this room before Mr. Radin gets home.

When is that?

Oh, in about an hour, I guess.

Okay, Mom.

Addie, will you come in the kitchen and
help me with this silly animal? He just

won't hold still for the liniment I'm
supposed to put on him.

Doesn't he know it's for his own good?

Come on, Smidge, let's be brave about
the whole thing.

Put that down.

You're not even supposed to be in this
room at all.

Mr. Radin.

Oh, Gilly.

Do you know what that clock was worth?

How could you do such a thing?

I didn't mean it. It slipped.

Eve?

Eve?

I didn't mean to break the clock, Mrs.
Radin.

I'm sorry.

It's all right, Gilly.

It's all right.

Yes, it's perfectly all right, isn't it?

You can do anything you like here,
Gilly. Mrs. Radin doesn't mind.

Howard, please.

Gilly, run along.

I promise I'll pay for the clock, Mr.
Radin. Not out of my money you won't.

I want you and your son out of here,
Annie, for good.

You don't mean that.

I do mean it. I put up with this
business for your sake, but this is the

it.

Well, we'll keep Gilly at the school.
You won't have to see so much of him.

I won't have to see him at all, and
neither will you.

I'll give you a month's salary, but I
want you out of here on Saturday.

He means it this time.

He really means it.

I knew it wouldn't work.

Things could have been so different.

Gilly?

Gilly?

I didn't mean to do it.

It's all right, Gilly. Sit down. I'll
get you some cake and milk.

It was just so pretty, I wanted to touch
it. I know, Gilly.

with me, isn't he?

Sarah, I left Mr. Ray in the milk on the
stove, ma 'am. Oh, fine.

Is he feeling any better?

No, he's gone to bed. I'll take it up to
him.

Good night, Mrs. Ray. Good night, Sarah.
Thank you.

EW!

Don't just stand there. Get a doctor.
Call Dr. Borgman. I'll call him.

Howard?

He's not breathing.

There was nothing wrong with him.

I think he's dead.

You always wanted this to happen.

You've done this to my son.

You've killed him.

I'm so glad you could come. I wanted to
see you again, Mrs. Strain. I've just

left Mrs. Radin. Oh, how is she?

She asked if you could bring her a
change of clothes.

I can't bear to think of her in that
awful place.

Do you know if she's been sleeping?

She's always had trouble sleeping.

I can't believe that all this is
happening.

It's that woman's fault.

That awful old woman. What woman?

Mrs. Radin.

You mean Howard Radin's mother?

Yes.

She hates Eve.

She's always hated her.

She hates Eve just because she married
her son.

That's why she accused Eve of killing
him.

It's the state who made the accusation,
Mrs. Strain.

Now, it's my job to prove they're wrong,
and you can help me do it.

I've told you everything I know. Have
you?

Well, what about that drunken gardener?

He was terribly angry at Mr. Radin when
he fired him.

It could have been him.

Why didn't the police arrest him?

There wasn't any case against the
gardener. Well, there isn't any case

Eve. Isn't there?

They think there is.

They say she bought the poison that
caused Radin's death.

She gave him the milk that contained the
poison.

And worst of all, she might have had a
motive.

That's not true.

Howard Radin's mother says it is.

She claims Eve wasn't much of a wife to
her son.

She's a nasty, vicious old woman.

And she knows about Jack Wentworth.

What does she know?

I don't know.

What do you know?

Nothing.

Nothing?

Well, the question is, will the jury
believe her?

Will they believe that Eve was an
unfaithful wife?

Do you think they will?

I'm not a fortune teller, Mrs. Strain.

And I've been studying the testimony at
the preliminary hearing.

As far as I'm concerned, they couldn't
convict Jack the Ripper on the evidence

they've got.

Do you mean that?

Well, they've only got one witness.

An hysterical, possessive mother.

She'll try and make Eve sound like a
Jezebel. Maybe that's how the jury will

her at first. When I put Eve herself on
the stand, that'll be a different story.

Then it'll be all right. They'll let her
go.

I've been a criminal lawyer for ten
years, Mrs. Strain.

I've done pretty well.

You know how?

I never believed I was going to lose a
case.

I do.

Mrs. Radin?

You were living with your son and his
wife at the time of his death.

I was.

Was your relationship with your daughter
-in -law a friendly one?

We understood each other.

Would you describe your son's marriage
as happy?

I would not.

Was there friction between them?

Howard did his best to hide it from me,
but I knew the truth.

What truth?

That she'd married him for his money.

And what makes you say that?

She was wildly extravagant with my son's
income.

She spent over $20 ,000 a year on
clothes alone.

Did he object to her spending so much?

Not at first.

He was too infatuated.

She took advantage of Howard.

I tried to make him see the truth, but
he wouldn't listen.

A man has to learn those things for
himself.

Would you say he finally did learn the
truth about his wife?

Not all of it.

He never knew the worst part.

That she was a filthy... Objection, Your
Honor.

Prosecution is encouraging the witness
to be abusive.

Mr. Halstead, please confine yourself to
questions of fact. Yes, Your Honor.

Then to your knowledge, your son knew
nothing of the affair between his wife

Jack Wentworth.

Objection! Well, I'll rephrase the
question.

Was your son aware that Eve Radin had
been seeing Jack Wentworth?

He knew nothing about it.

It was the one thing about her that I
couldn't bear to tell him.

Did you ever see them together?

I did.

It was on a Friday afternoon.

I'd left the house that morning to go to
a committee meeting of a charity

organization to which I belonged.

But I returned sooner than I expected.

And sooner than my daughter -in -law
expected.

You haven't told me anything about
yourself?

Nothing much to tell.

I'm married, I'm well, and I'm keeping
busy.

Go ahead, tell me you're happy.

Tell me what a great guy Howard is.

Tell me how you never regretted marrying
him.

Not even for a minute.

And then tell me you don't want to see
me anymore.

But I do want to see you.

There's no reason why I shouldn't.

Let's have lunch next week, huh?

I'd love to.

Oh, hello, Mother. I thought you weren't
going to be home until this evening.

The committee postponed the bazaar for a
week.

The chairman is ill.

Oh, this is Jack Wentworth, an old
friend.

This is Mrs. Radin.

How is Mother?

Are you an old friend of my son's, Mr.
Wentworth?

Yes, I met him once.

I think I'd better be running along.

You must come and have dinner with us
sometime, Mr. Wentworth. Yes, yes, I'd

like that.

Look, Eve, I'll be at the plaza in case
you want me for anything, huh?

Say goodbye to Eddie for me, huh?

in each other's arms.

I heard them and I saw them.

You said nothing about this to your son?

I didn't like to carry tales.

Besides, she would have denied it.

She could make Howard believe anything.

Mrs. Radin, did your son and his wife
quarrel on several occasions?

Yes.

As a matter of fact, there was a quarrel
the day before his death, wasn't there?

Yes, there was.

I was present at the time.

Would you please tell the court what
happened?

Eve left the house early that morning on
one of her frequent shopping trips.

When she returned about seven o 'clock
that evening, Howard and I were in the

study.

I can't understand why Eve didn't tell
me about these.

She should have come to me.

I'm afraid she doesn't tell you
everything, Howard.

Oh, Mother Louise.

Hi.

Oh, boy, these new shoes are killing me.

What's the matter? You look as if
someone died.

In the stock market again, huh?

Do you know what these are?

No idea.

Well, maybe you'd better take a look at
them.

A man came to my office today.

He came to see me about you.

He was from a collection agency.

Seems you haven't paid these bills, so
the store forwarded them to an agency

collection. It was very embarrassing.

Poor darling.

Eve, you owe $7 ,000.

Well, the price of hats has gone up.

Hats, furs, shoes, jewelry.

Howard, you sound like an elevator
operator. Don't be so dull. I don't

there's anything dull about $7 ,000.

I think it's the dullest thing I've
heard all day.

Eve, you spent $7 ,000, and that's only
in one store.

We haven't heard from the others yet.

We'll tell them to wait.

They take long enough with their
deliveries. Let them wait for their

Eve, darling, you don't seem to
understand.

These bills are weeks overdue.

Howard gives you a good allowance. What
do you do with it?

Spend it.

It's no use, Howard. Just a minute, Eve.

Mother and I have been talking this
over.

Oh? What did Mother have to say?

She reminded me about your annuity.

The money Gary left you.

Well, thank you, Mother. I might never
have thought of that.

Eve, you cannot go on spending money
this way.

You know the condition of the stock
market lately.

Most of my shares are at rock bottom,
and I just can't afford to sell until

go up.

Mother's always right, isn't she?

All right, Howard.

Punish me. Send me to bed without
supper.

I'm dieting anyway.

Eve, I'm not going to pay these bills.

You'll have to pay them yourself.

You don't mean that.

I do mean it.

After all, you have $10 ,000 of your own
money.

It's only fair that you should use that
to pay these bills.

But, Howard, you always wanted me to
look well.

You always said I should buy nice
clothes.

Within reason, darling, for heaven's
sake.

Within reason.

All right, darling.

I'll go to the bank tomorrow.

I just hate it when you're angry with
me.

She never had any trouble fooling
Howard.

He was always very weak as far as she
was concerned.

Of course, she didn't go to the bank the
next day.

She never intended to.

Mrs. Radin, have you ever seen this
before?

Yes, I have.

It's a check made out for $10 ,000 to
the order of Eve Radin.

Would you read the signature on this
cheque?

It's signed Jack Wentworth.

Would you tell the court where you first
saw this cheque?

It was in her room.

In your daughter -in -law's bedroom?

Yes.

It was the day after Howard died.

I went into her room after Eve had left
the house.

I thought I might find something from
this man Wentworth.

A letter, perhaps.

I found the cheque.

It was in a bureau drawer.

Mrs. Radin, are we to understand that
you found this check among your daughter

-in -law's possessions?

Yes. And you appropriated it without her
permission?

I had to.

I wanted to prove... Very well, Mrs.
Radin.

Mr. Malloy, was the defense aware of the
manner in which this evidence was

obtained? We were, Your Honor.

And you wish to make no objection?

No, Your Honor.

We believe the exhibit will be explained
by the case for the defense.

We're willing to accept it in evidence.

Very well, you may proceed, Mr.
Halstead.

Mrs. Radin, what did you think when you
first saw this check?

I knew that no man would give that much
money to a woman unless he was a great

deal more than a friend.

And so you demanded the autopsy. The
autopsy which proved your son was

Yes. Mrs. Radin, you knew your son
suffered from a very serious ulcer

Yes, but I also knew that he took good
care of himself.

Isn't it true that Mrs. Radin brought
him a glass of warm milk each night

going to bed?

Yes. And that's how she did it. She put
poison in the milk.

She thought that we would believe that
my son's illness was the cause of his

death.

But I knew better.

I knew that she killed my son.

Just to keep you from becoming too
engrossed in our story, the ground rules

television provide this cooling -off
period, after which we shall all be

Welcome back to the Alfred Hitchcock
Hour. We missed you. The second half of

what really happened will begin after we
cross this one -minute moat.

You may proceed with your witness, Mr.
Malloy.

Mrs. Radin.

How long were you married to Howard
Radin?

About two years.

You had been married before?

Yes, my first husband was killed in an
auto crash about seven years ago.

I see.

What was your relationship with Jack
Wentworth before your marriage to Howard

Radin? We were very good friends.

Was there any romantic interest?

Yes, before I met Howard.

Where were you living at that time?

I was sharing an apartment with Addie.
With Adelaide Strain, the woman who is

now your housekeeper? Yes, we were both
widows.

She had a child, didn't she? A boy named
Gilbert?

Yes.

So you married Howard Radin, and a year
later, Adelaide Strain came to work for

you as your housekeeper.

Well, Adelaide had been a wonderful
friend to me. I was very happy when

said we could hire her.

The boy came with her?

Yes.

Addie and I arranged for him to go to a
school in the neighborhood.

A private school?

The Maynard School for boys.

Now, what happened to Jack Wentworth
after your marriage to Howard Radin?

He went to South America. He's a mining
engineer.

And when did he return?

Just this January.

You heard Mrs.

Radin's testimony about finding you and
Jack Wentworth together. Was that the

first time you saw him after his return?

Yes, that was the first time.

But it wasn't the way she said. You
didn't embrace him.

She made it sound all wrong.

I didn't even know that Jack was in town
or that he was coming to see me.

It was a surprise Addie had arranged.

We've got five years to catch up on. I
want to hear all about it.

Well, you remember the company I told
you about?

The one working the mine up in the
Andes? Oh, yes, I remember.

Well, it took us almost a whole year to
set up operations, but it paid off.

We took millions of dollars of tin out
of that mining.

I'm rich.

You really deserve it, Jack.

I don't deserve it or not. I've got it.

Oh, it's just marvelous.

Thank you.

Your hand's a little heavier now, isn't
it?

Mm -hmm.

You know, on the way over here, I passed
by a jewelry store, and I saw a

bracelet that I would have loved. I have
everything.

Everything.

Well, you haven't told me anything about
yourself.

Well, there isn't much to tell.

I'm married and I'm well and I'm keeping
busy.

You haven't said you were happy.

Didn't I? I know, I know, I know. You're
going to tell me you're happy.

You're going to tell me what a great guy
Howard is.

Then you're going to tell me you've
never regretted marrying Howard, not

for a minute.

And then you're going to tell me you
don't want to see me anymore.

No. No?

Let's have lunch next week, huh?

I don't think we should.

Hello, Mother. I didn't think you were
going to be home until this evening.

Oh, is that what you thought?

Well, the committee have postponed the
bazaar for a week.

The chairman is ill.

This is Jack Wentworth.

He's an old friend. This is Mrs. Radin,
Howard's mother.

Well, how do you do, Mrs. Radin?

How do you do?

Are you a friend of my son's, Mr.

Wentworth? Well, I met him once.

I think I should be running along.

Why don't you come to dinner sometime?

I'm sure my son would be only too
pleased to see an old friend of Eve's.

Well, thank you. That would be very
nice.

Eve, if you want me, I'll be at the
plaza.

I'll see you to the door.

No, no, no, please.

Just say goodbye to Eddie for me. I
will.

Goodbye. Goodbye.

Pleasure, Mrs.

Radin.

I knew what Mrs. Radin was thinking, but
it wasn't true.

I was happy to see Jack, but that was
all.

Did you see Jack Wentworth after that?

Well, yes, but there was nothing
secretive about it. We met a couple of

for lunch or a cocktail.

Mrs. Radin, we've heard about a quarrel
which took place the day before your

husband's death.

Do you recall that occasion?

Yes.

We quarreled.

But it didn't happen the way Mrs. Radin
said. It wasn't that way at all.

Boy, these shoes are killing me.

Yes, it must be very tiring, all this
shopping.

Do you know what these are?

No. Maybe you'd better take a look at
them.

A man came to my office this morning
from a collection agency.

You haven't paid these bills.

How do you think I felt about that?

Oh, Howard, I'm sorry.

You owe $7 ,000, Eve.

$7 ,000.

And that's only from one store.

We haven't heard from the others yet.

I never realized how much I was
spending.

The stock market has been acting very
badly lately.

Most of my stuff is at rock bottom. I
just can't afford to sell any shares.

Howard, you never discuss money with me.
If you'd explained, I would have tried

to economize.

Howard gives you a good allowance every
month, but it never seems to be enough

for you.

I don't know why it is. I'm always
running short.

I know why.

It's dear old Addie, isn't it?

Do you think I don't know the money you
spend on her every month?

And I'm paying her more than she's
worth.

And that school she sends her boy to,
it's absurd.

Sending him to an expensive private
school.

But he has to go to the Maynard School.

It's the only school close by.

Besides, Addie does pay part of the
tuition.

There was never any need for Addie
around here in the first place.

But she's my friend.

And don't think she hasn't taken full
advantage of it. We pay her $500 a

and what does she do for it? Nothing,
except arrange a few flowers.

I'm going to fire her.

No. I'm going to fire her.

All right, Howard. What do you want me
to do about the bills?

My mother and I have been talking this
over. She thinks you ought to pay them

yourself.

Seems only right to me.

But how?

What about the annuity Gary left you?

I... I don't think there's enough.

Well, it should be over $10 ,000.

I want these bills paid.

And I want them paid by the end of the
week.

You can go to the bank tomorrow and draw
out the money.

All right, Howard.

I'll go to the bank tomorrow.

But I knew I couldn't go to the bank.

There was really only one place I could
turn.

Ah,

you look beautiful.

Well, this is certainly a lucky break
for me seeing you again so soon.

You may not think it's so lucky when you
hear the reason.

Oh? Oh, thank you. Uh, daiquiri?

So remembered.

Daiquiri, please.

I'm in trouble, Jack.

I've made a terrible mess of things.

Oh, how terrible.

You remember that annuity Gary left me?

Mm -hmm.

Well, it's all gone, every cent.

I kept drawing on the capital.

You've been helping Andy with Gilly's
school fees. I know. She told me. Well,

the fees are high, and he needs a lot of
things.

But I've been extravagant with myself.

I can't help it. I just love clothes.

Hey, you should have them.

I owe a lot.

$7 ,000.

You know, five years ago, I was all the
money in the world as far as I was

concerned.

Right now, it doesn't sound like so
much, though.

Might as well be a million.

Howard insists I pay it.

He thinks I still have my own money.

Well, he can afford to pay it.

But he won't. He's furious with me.

He even wants to get rid of Addie, and I
don't know what she'd do about Gilly's

schooling if he did.

I see.

Well, thank you.

Thank you.

Well, uh...

Why don't we make it out for $10 ,000?

That's an awful lot of money.

No, but you may have some bills you've
forgotten about.

It's not as pretty as a diamond
bracelet.

I'll pay you back. I promise I will.

You just promised me one thing.

That you'll call me any time you're in
trouble.

Will you remember that?

That was how I got the check.

I wasn't proud of myself for it, but I
had nothing to be ashamed of either.

Mrs. Radin, was there anything illicit
in your relationship with Jack

Wentworth? No, nothing.

Did you love your husband?

Yes.

Were you unfaithful to him in any way?

No, never.

Mrs. Radin, isn't it a fact that you
brought your husband a glass of warm

every evening?

Yes, I did.

Did you put poison in that glass of milk
the night he died?

No, I didn't.

Are you sure?

I swear I didn't.

No further questions.

Your witness, Mr. Halstead.

You know your husband died of a lethal
dose of Vaconitine.

Yes.

Tincture of Vaconitine is found in
certain liniment preparations.

It was contained in a product called
K944, used in the treatment of skin

ailments in animals.

Are you familiar with this product?

Yes.

You own a dog, I believe.

Yes.

You recently purchased some of this
K944, didn't you?

The vet recommended it.

However, the bottle you purchased was
never found in the house.

Do you know what became of it?

I can't imagine what happened to it.

But you know what happened to some of
it, don't you?

You used some of it to kill Howard
Radin. I didn't. I had no reason to kill

Howard. No reason.

No reason at all.

Objection. Objection sustained.

Please do not lead the witness, Mr.
Halston.

Mrs. Radin, what was the name of your
first husband?

Gary Mitchell.

At the time you met him, he was an
employee of Howard Radin, wasn't he?

Yes.

They didn't get along very well, did
they?

As a matter of fact, Howard Radin fired
your first husband, didn't he?

I don't see what that has to do... How
old were you at the time of that first

marriage?

Seventeen. Only seventeen.

And how long had you been married when
Gary Mitchell was killed in that wreck?

Four months.

Naturally, that disturbed you very much.

Of course.

In fact, you had another reason to be
unhappy, didn't you?

Yes.

I was very unhappy, yes.

Not only because your husband had died,
but because he had left you with a

child.

Isn't that true, Mrs. Radin?

Here's a copy of the birth certificate.

They proved that you gave birth to a
child six months after the death of your

first husband.

Would you like to see it?

So you were a widow at 17 with a baby
you didn't really want.

I did want him.

But I couldn't take care of him. I had
to find work.

I didn't know what to do.

Yes, it was hard, wasn't it? All that
responsibility on someone young and all

alone. You needed help.

So you turned to the best friend you
had. You let Adelaide Strain look after

your child and you went off to work as a
fashion model.

I was only studying to be a model.

I wasn't trained.

I was making hardly any money at all.
The hours were long and Addy offered to

take care of Gilly for me.

And when you started seeing Howard
Radin, you never told him about the

I couldn't. I just couldn't. Of course
you couldn't. That would have spoiled

everything, wouldn't it?

meant to tell him someday.

But you never did.

You were afraid he wouldn't marry you if
he knew about the child, especially a

child of Gary Mitchell's, a man he
despised.

So you let Adelaide Strain raise the boy
as her own, until you could bring them

both into your home.

I wanted my baby with me. But Howard
Radin thought the boy was Adelaide

Strain's, didn't he?

And he told Mrs. Strain he didn't want
her to work for you anymore.

Isn't that what happened?

Didn't he fire her?

Yes. And if Adelaide Strain...

but forced to go, your son would have
gone too?

Yes. And that's why you had to kill your
husband, wasn't it? That's the real

reason. I didn't kill him.

That's all, Mr. Ray.

It is now your duty to weigh these
arguments and the testimony of the

you've heard in order to determine
whether the defendant is innocent or

of the charge of first -degree murder.

In order to reach that decision, I
remind you again that a conviction for

crime of murder requires evidence of
both opportunity and motive.

You must be convinced that the
defendant, Eve Radin, had adequate

commit the act which resulted in the
death of her husband.

And you must be satisfied that the
prosecution has shown just cause for

crime to be committed.

If you believe there is a reasonable
doubt, then...

you must return a verdict of not guilty.

If you believe that both opportunity and
motive have been proved, it is your

duty to find the defendant guilty as
charged.

The jury will now retire to consider
their verdict.

Why didn't you tell me the truth?

Why did I have to learn it from the
prosecution?

I couldn't. Eve made me... You knew the
most important fact of all, and you kept

your mouth shut. Do you know what you've
done to our case?

If I had known the truth, I could have
fought back.

Now, it's too late.

You've handed them the one thing they
didn't have before, the motive.

But she didn't kill him. She didn't kill
him.

There are 12 people in that jury room.

Tell it to them.

It'll be a miracle if they believe it
now.

How

long

has the jury been out?

That's about six hours now.

I shouldn't have listened to Eve.

I should have told them about Gilly.

Oh, don't blame yourself. I'm sure you
did what Eve wanted.

I never thought they'd find out.

All these years, no one ever guessed.

You don't blame it, Jack.

She was trying to make a home for Gilly.

She always intended telling Howard.

He proved so impossible.

No, I don't blame her, Eddie.

I just feel so helpless.

Hello?

Oh, yes, Mr. Malloy.

About what time did you say?

Oh, fine. Thank you very much.

Good night.

Well, the jury is locked up for tonight.

We won't know anything until tomorrow
morning. If then.

They're going to convict her.

I don't know, Eddie.

I just don't know.

Look, why don't I stop by around nine in
the morning and we'll both go to court

together.

Good night, Eddie.

No, Billy, it's just a dream.

I was in his room.

He came after me.

Shh, Billy, shh.

I couldn't move.

My legs couldn't move.

No, Billy, it was just a dream.

An awful nightmare.

Lie down, good.

There's nothing for you to be afraid of
anymore.

Well, of course, I'll have to report
this to the police. You understand that?

Yes, yes, I know. Is she going to be all
right, Doctor? Well, luckily, the

poison she took was a slow -acting one.

Yes, she'll be all right.

Oh, thank you.

Thank you very much, Doctor.

Mr. Wentworth.

Oh, yes.

She left this note in her room.

It's addressed to Mrs. Radin.

Oh, well, I'll take it.

Oh, by the way, where is Gilly? He's up
in his room. I'll take very good care of

him. Thank you.

My dear Steve, it's not enough to say
I'm sorry.

Not when I've made you suffer so much.

I really thought it would be all right.
I kept hoping and praying all through

the trial.

A thousand times I wanted to stand up
and shout for them to stop.

To tell them the truth.

That I killed Howard.

I did it for all of us.

Please believe me.

I just wanted us to be happy.

You and me and Gilly.

To be together always.

I thought that they would blame Howard's
death on his illness.

And then they arrested you.

And I knew that I hadn't solved
anything.

I'd only made things worse.

You've always been so kind to me.

I know you'll be kind now and forgive me
for what I've done.

Take care of your boy, Eve.

He needs you so much.

Well, Mr. Halstead, I'm satisfied, Your
Honor. You'll agree then that the jury

be dismissed?

By all means.

Then it's over?

It's over.

Not for Mrs. Strain, I'm afraid.

Mr. Malloy, what's going to happen to
Addie?

I don't know.

I'll do everything I can to help her.

May I see my son now?

You're free to go whenever you wish,
Mrs. Radin.

Come on, Eve, I'll take you home.

Would you mind dropping me off?

Not at all.

Goodbye. Goodbye, Your Honor. Goodbye.

Mr. Malloy, thank you so much.

Mr. Halstead, you seem a trifle
disturbed.

Your Honor, that jury would have brought
in a verdict of guilty.

Wouldn't they?

That, Counselor, is something we'll
never know.

You have now seen the whole of what
really happened.

We shall cross -examine you later.

By the way, Mrs. Strain was subsequently
tried and found guilty.

She hoped for a suspended sentence, but
unfortunately they suspended her.

My two stalwart heroes are no longer
partners.

The split -up was entirely friendly,
however. You see, this way they can

represent both sides of a case.

Defending the underdog is fine.

but it's usually the upper dog who can
pay the big fees.

Next week, the Alfred Hitchcock Hour
will bring you another story.

Some previews of this will follow the
