Hello. Trying to get senior rule in London for you, senor.

Great.

What's the word to report?

Wie ist die Wettervoraussage?

Ein Moment, bitte.

Hello. You're called to London, senor.

Harry? Yeah, who is this?

Jerry Butler.

Jerry, how are you? Where are you?

Still in Venice.

Any progress?

I'm taking a vacation.

I see. How's the accommodation?

Well, I haven't found any bedbugs, but I wouldn't like to get bitten.

I understand.

This isn't a place to be on your own in. Why don't you fly over?

You could use a vacation, too, couldn't you? Maybe I could.

I'm at the Regina.

I think I've located one or two things of interest.

I'll see you then.

You'll see me.

Great. And listen, Harry, it's hot here. Very hot.

Right.

Ciao.

have the key, and I shall move it.

Right.

Thank you.

Who is it? Room service, signore.

Ah, come in.

You're in, signore.

Here, there's a couple of things. Mail this for me, will you?

Si, signore.

That's... Yeah, just mail it, huh? And I don't want to be disturbed, you

understand? Si, signore. Good. Now, I'm expecting a signore Harry Rule.

When he arrives, give him a message.

Tell him I'll meet him here in the hotel lobby at 6 .30 tonight.

You got it? 6 .30, si, senor.

Okay. Thanks.

you told me your friend jerry sounds rather vague that was my impression that

was on to something just how much were the mulhaney diamonds worth

close to a million pounds that is a nice round figure yes i'd say

so

Tell me where we might find Senor Butler.

Senor Rule, you say that Senor Butler was an acquaintance?

Yeah.

Was he working for you?

We have worked together.

But on this occasion, the purpose of his visit to Venice was a... A vacation. I

think that's what he told me. Yes.

When he called you?

He rang me yesterday.

Yes, at 1730 hours, huh?

You say he was here for a vacation, and yet there had already been one attempt

on his life before he was murdered.

You didn't know?

At 1740 last night, his boat was blown to pieces. The device was wired to the

ignition. 1740 was after he called me.

Yes.

How long are you in Venice, Signora? I haven't decided yet.

Needless to say, should you have any further ideas... Okay.

Yes.

Thank you, Signora.

Did they find anything on the body?

No.

Well, I'll get back to Jerry's hotel and see what I can find.

Okay, I'll try the bar.

Well, I'm looking for something, Signore.

Depends on what that something is.

Information.

And who are you?

I saw you at the morgue.

So?

Who knows who killed Jerry Butler and Dwight.

Ernest is falling down.

So where's your friend?

He will be here soon.

Signor Eru, can you hear me, Signor Eru?

Oh, please, don't be difficult.

There is no escape.

Why resist, Signor Eru? Please, come to the door. Let's talk.

Can you hear me, Signor Eru?

My key, please.

Grazie. Prego.

Please, we must go, Signora. We should not be here.

Another minute or so.

Are you sure Senor Rule did not come back to this hotel?

Si, Senora.

And Senor Butler, he gave you no message?

No, Senora, there was a letter.

A letter? He asked me to post it.

Who was it addressed to? To this hotel, to Senor Rule.

Please, we must go. The police said no, I must come here.

Don't worry, I will accept the responsibility.

And what will be your excuse, eh?

For breaking the police seal and entering the hotel room of a murder

The best excuse in the world.

Yes? I'm very concerned about my associate, Harry Rule.

Oh, yes.

I want to know where he is.

And you expect to find him in here?

Captain, I do not underestimate you. Please, allow me the same consideration.

Let us lay our cards upon the table.

Yes, sir.

All right.

You remember the Mulhaney case?

I would be obliged for a resume.

1967.

A routine delivery of a million pounds worth of diamonds.

And Signor Butler was the courier?

No. His best friend was.

A man called Archer.

He was in a car. It was blown to pieces. The diamonds were never found.

I see. And then?

Jerry Butler was working for the insurance company.

Now, we think that he'd found a new lead.

Which was?

I don't know.

Yes.

I will try to find your associate, Signora.

But it is addressed to Signora. And Signora has not been seen for nearly six

hours. Please, it's very important.

My dear Contessa, welcome.

If there is anything I can do to assist you. Thank you.

Perhaps we'll look at our latest creation.

Another time, Signor. I'm here on entirely different business.

Ah.

Do you know a man named Archer?

Nick Archer.

Should I?

An American.

His name was Jerry Butler.

It is impossible.

This place sees with Americans.

You saw a photograph of Nick Archer.

Here.

Those are my models.

And the men?

Husbands, boyfriends.

I'm sorry I cannot help you.

I'm sorry too.

the way to the hotel? Si, senora.

It is a shortcut.

What is this?

This is the end, Contessa.

Who are you?

You will wait here.

What do you want from me?

Think your own thoughts.

Don't bother me.

Signore, I'm sorry, but the contestant...

Contessa read this?

Si, senore.

I'm sorry, senor. We are closing.

Are you senor Coniferte?

Yes.

Where is the contestant decontaining?

I am sorry. I don't know the lady. Is she a client? Where is she?

I must ask you to leave.

Jerry Butler came here and saw a photograph.

Probably by accident.

And then he was killed because he had seen it.

I don't know what you mean. Where is she?

How long are you going to keep me here?

All right.

Now, what is this all about?

I'm sorry we have to go through with this.

Why have I been brought here?

I'm coming down, Marcus.

Now, you know why you've been brought here, don't you?

What am I supposed to know?

Look at me.

I'm a flicker, nothing.

You really don't know me?

No. My face means nothing to her.

Nothing at all.

I'm sorry.

You are sorry.

We didn't have to do this. Do what?

If I am going to be murdered, may I at least know the reason why?

What kind of monster are you?

I'm not a monster.

I'm a married man.

That money and respect.

A reputation here in Venice.

I couldn't leave all that. I couldn't give it up.

That's why we have to do what must be done.

Was it you who killed Jerry Butler?

Oh.

You know some of the story, then.

Thank you.

It makes it a bit easier for me, that's all.

You really are a lovely woman.

Ready.

This time it must be an accident.

In Venice, there are so many accidents.

It's dark enough now.

Archer! Hmm?

Jerry Butler's friend and partner.

Killed in 1970 while acting security for Mulhaney's Diamonds.

We even gave you a eulogy.

Remember, Nick?

I sent you some flowers.

You took the diamonds and you took a new name and a new life.

It might have worked, too, if Jerry hadn't come nosing around in Venice and

one of your photographs.

Start with her here.

Are you?
