00:00:03,879 --> 00:00:06,322
Come on, guys! Let's keep
those hands up and move!
2
00:00:06,323 --> 00:00:08,824
That's it. Jab, jab, jab!
3
00:00:08,825 --> 00:00:11,627
- Let's go! Let's go!
- Over this! Don't break! Oh!
4
00:00:11,628 --> 00:00:15,164
Jab, jab, jab! That's it!
Keep that jab going!
5
00:00:15,165 --> 00:00:17,767
- That's it! That's it!
- Hold on!
6
00:00:17,768 --> 00:00:19,602
Come on, Moses, wait for your chance.
7
00:00:19,603 --> 00:00:21,904
Tuck that chin in, guys. Come on now!
8
00:00:21,905 --> 00:00:23,573
Ernest Hemingway.
9
00:00:23,574 --> 00:00:26,842
What brings a private
detective to a boxing match?
10
00:00:26,843 --> 00:00:29,579
- Maybe a certain boxer?
- Alright, give it to him!
11
00:00:29,580 --> 00:00:32,448
- Break! Break!
- Did you see that, Hemingway?
12
00:00:32,449 --> 00:00:35,585
Boxer lands punch... great headline.
13
00:00:35,586 --> 00:00:37,720
- Huh.
- OK, come on,
14
00:00:37,721 --> 00:00:40,690
let's move! Let's keep moving!
Keep moving! Right there!
15
00:00:43,193 --> 00:00:46,195
You're gonna give Moses Page his due.
16
00:00:46,196 --> 00:00:48,497
Not like that last column
you dashed off.
17
00:00:48,498 --> 00:00:50,733
You sleep through that fight?
18
00:00:50,734 --> 00:00:52,935
- Well, I was hungover.
- Please.
19
00:00:52,936 --> 00:00:55,271
- So yes, I probably nodded off.
- Don't you ever get tired
20
00:00:55,272 --> 00:00:58,107
- of your own arrogance?
- Hmm.
21
00:00:58,108 --> 00:01:00,009
Oh!
22
00:01:00,010 --> 00:01:01,811
Alright, back up!
23
00:01:01,812 --> 00:01:03,613
- You OK, buddy?
- Great,
24
00:01:03,614 --> 00:01:06,048
the one interesting thing,
and you made me miss it.
25
00:01:06,049 --> 00:01:07,686
Well, it's your fault for arguing. So
26
00:01:07,687 --> 00:01:09,552
you'll be betting on
Moses in his next fight?
27
00:01:09,553 --> 00:01:12,221
Highly unethical for a
Toronto Star reporter.
28
00:01:12,222 --> 00:01:14,423
Well, I'll be reading
your next article.
29
00:01:14,424 --> 00:01:16,425
Try to be objective for once.
30
00:01:16,426 --> 00:01:19,395
Always a pleasure, Ms. Drake.
31
00:01:19,396 --> 00:01:21,831
OK, that's better.
32
00:01:21,832 --> 00:01:25,601
That's better. That's better.
Get up, buddy, you're OK.
33
00:01:29,706 --> 00:01:31,707
That Hemingway,
34
00:01:31,708 --> 00:01:34,076
- he's just a two-bit typist.
- Haha!
35
00:01:34,077 --> 00:01:36,212
You know, if I listened to critics,
36
00:01:36,213 --> 00:01:38,214
I'd have given up a long time ago.
37
00:01:38,215 --> 00:01:40,283
Hmm, Moses Page, the voice of calm.
38
00:01:40,284 --> 00:01:42,084
I'm just saving it for the ring.
39
00:01:42,085 --> 00:01:46,455
Then, Jack Dempsey had better
look out. When do you leave?
40
00:01:46,456 --> 00:01:49,625
I leave for Chicago on the weekend.
41
00:01:49,626 --> 00:01:51,927
You can take him. You know that.
42
00:01:51,928 --> 00:01:54,864
Thanks for the pep talk, Coach.
43
00:01:54,865 --> 00:01:59,468
Well, can I interest you
in a cold gin?
44
00:01:59,469 --> 00:02:01,404
Hello there. Excuse me,
45
00:02:01,405 --> 00:02:04,440
- but are you Frankie Drake?
- Who's asking?
46
00:02:04,441 --> 00:02:07,710
- I need some advice.
- Can't it wait 'til morning,
47
00:02:07,711 --> 00:02:10,313
- Mister... whoever you are?
- I don't think so.
48
00:02:10,314 --> 00:02:14,016
I'm Eric Morrison. Cap told me if I
needed something, to look you up.
49
00:02:14,017 --> 00:02:16,352
- "Cap" as in Captain Morrison?
- Yeah.
50
00:02:16,353 --> 00:02:18,454
- It's about my car.
- How do you know Cap?
51
00:02:18,455 --> 00:02:21,190
He's my father. It's parked close by.
52
00:02:21,191 --> 00:02:23,459
She's not a mechanic; you should just
53
00:02:23,460 --> 00:02:25,995
- call a garage in the morning.
- I don't think
54
00:02:25,996 --> 00:02:29,231
I should wait. Can't you just
come and have a look?
55
00:02:29,232 --> 00:02:31,467
Go check the car, Frankie,
56
00:02:31,468 --> 00:02:33,636
and I'll see you before I leave town.
57
00:02:33,637 --> 00:02:35,738
I'd like that.
58
00:02:37,107 --> 00:02:39,575
Alright, Mr. Morrison, let's go
see what's so important.

60
00:02:48,819 --> 00:02:50,586

61
00:02:50,587 --> 00:02:52,588
I hardly see him.
He's always travelling.
62
00:02:52,589 --> 00:02:54,724
Oh. And he's still
with the Signal Corps?
63
00:02:54,725 --> 00:02:57,593
I don't actually know.
It's all a bit hush-hush.
64
00:02:57,594 --> 00:02:59,628
OK. So you've been here a few months,
65
00:02:59,629 --> 00:03:03,232
- and you have a car already?
- It's a recent acquisition.
66
00:03:03,233 --> 00:03:05,334
- Did you steal it?
- I didn't steal it.
67
00:03:05,335 --> 00:03:07,870
And anyway, it's not
about the car per Se;
68
00:03:07,871 --> 00:03:09,672
it's about my trunk.
69
00:03:09,673 --> 00:03:12,508
Mr. Morrison, I don't know
how I can help you.
70
00:03:12,509 --> 00:03:15,010
I think you will when you see him.
71
00:03:15,011 --> 00:03:16,912
There's a man.
72
00:03:18,815 --> 00:03:22,551
Past tense more appropriate.

00:03:41,204 --> 00:03:43,205
So let me get this straight:
you have no idea
76
00:03:43,206 --> 00:03:45,007
who this is or how he got here.
77
00:03:45,008 --> 00:03:47,643
I've no idea. I got off
the ferry, looked in my trunk
78
00:03:47,644 --> 00:03:50,312
- and found him.
- And you brought the trunk
79
00:03:50,313 --> 00:03:52,314
- over from London?
- Yes. It's been sitting
80
00:03:52,315 --> 00:03:54,450
- on the back of the car.
- And who did you buy
81
00:03:54,451 --> 00:03:56,752
- the car from?
- I didn't buy it...
82
00:03:56,753 --> 00:03:59,021
I won it in a poker game.
83
00:03:59,022 --> 00:04:00,956
Fair and square.
84

Can you help me?
85
00:04:01,992 --> 00:04:04,860
Have you touched the body?
86
00:04:04,861 --> 00:04:06,629
I checked for the guy's pulse
87
00:04:06,630 --> 00:04:08,831
and his wallet. He didn't have either.
88
00:04:08,832 --> 00:04:11,567
What do we do?
89
00:04:11,568 --> 00:04:13,969
First, we call the police...
90

anonymously.
91
00:04:15,772 --> 00:04:17,773
Hopefully, that will buy us
enough time to get
92
00:04:17,774 --> 00:04:20,501
to the bottom of things.

Neat packing job.

He's on the table,
uncurling in the autopsy room.

Well, I need a time of death
and an identity.

Preferably before the coppers.

Because this kid's father

Someone framing Eric?

I already told Frankie I don't.

Said you spoke your mind,

"Flimflam"? I haven't
heard that in a while.

You're living
on Toronto Island in a tent?!

No. I mean here in Toronto.
149
00:07:11,348 --> 00:07:14,283
Truth is my father gave me
a one-way ticket to the colonies
150
00:07:14,284 --> 00:07:16,952
with the instructions to become a man.
151
00:07:16,953 --> 00:07:19,688
Just as I was to play Hamlet for
the Amateur Dramatic Society.

00:07:36,973 --> 00:07:39,541
out of your systems, let's make
some introductions here.

This is Archie, tent mate
and otherwise acquaintance.
160
00:07:42,345 --> 00:07:45,447
- Yeah? He's a no-good son of a...

161
00:07:45,448 --> 00:07:48,017
- Yeah, where you were cheating!
- OK.
162
00:07:48,018 --> 00:07:50,419
OK!
163
00:07:50,420 --> 00:07:52,688
- Tell me about your car.
- Who wants to know?
164
00:07:52,689 --> 00:07:55,491
Someone who can cause
a whole lot of trouble.
165
00:07:56,693 --> 00:07:58,961
It was just sitting there.
I kind of borrowed it.
166
00:07:58,962 --> 00:08:01,030
- So you stole it?
- I was gonna put it back,
167
00:08:01,031 --> 00:08:04,099
- but then I lost it in the game.
- When did you take it?
168
00:08:04,100 --> 00:08:06,101
About three weeks ago.
169
00:08:06,102 --> 00:08:08,137
- Who's the owner?
- I don't know!
170
00:08:08,138 --> 00:08:10,906
Honest! What's this all about anyways?
171
00:08:10,907 --> 00:08:13,509
Just lay low and try
to stay out of trouble.
172
00:08:13,510 --> 00:08:16,545
- Thanks.
- We'll be in touch.
173
00:08:24,451 --> 00:08:26,452
Where do you keep all the gadgets?
174
00:08:26,453 --> 00:08:29,888
You know, the invisible ink
and everything?
175
00:08:29,889 --> 00:08:31,890
Oh, the inner sanctum
176
00:08:31,891 --> 00:08:35,027
of the detective agency.
177
00:08:35,028 --> 00:08:37,329
- Disguises!
- Mary!
178
00:08:39,899 --> 00:08:42,968
Ah! A fully functioning gin still!
179
00:08:42,969 --> 00:08:46,471
In direct contravention
of the Temperance Act.
180
00:08:50,109 --> 00:08:53,645
- I didn't see that, ladies.
- The licence plate, Mary?
181
00:08:55,915 --> 00:08:58,984
License plate "186-148"
182
00:08:58,985 --> 00:09:00,953
is registered to a Mr. John Russell.
183
00:09:00,954 --> 00:09:02,821
And he is...?
184
00:09:02,822 --> 00:09:06,158
Well, from what I gathered
from my discrete inquiries,
185
00:09:06,159 --> 00:09:08,560
he is a well-heeled gadabout.
186
00:09:08,561 --> 00:09:10,562
Seems he likes to spend a lot of time
187
00:09:10,563 --> 00:09:13,131
at the Lake Ontario Yacht Club
where he's the treasurer.
188
00:09:13,132 --> 00:09:16,001
That's just a short walk
from Eric's tent city.
189
00:09:16,002 --> 00:09:18,337
- Striking coincidence.
- Uh, and there's more:
190
00:09:18,338 --> 00:09:21,273
Mr. Russell has not
reported his car stolen.
191
00:09:21,274 --> 00:09:24,309
Interesting. I wonder why not.
192
00:09:24,310 --> 00:09:26,311
Suspicious behaviour
if you ask me.
193
00:09:26,312 --> 00:09:28,313
Maybe we should pay him a visit.
194
00:09:28,314 --> 00:09:31,483
Good luck. The Yacht Club
is strictly members only.
195
00:09:31,484 --> 00:09:35,253
Right, Yacht Club...
I think I saw something.
196
00:09:39,092 --> 00:09:41,493
"The engagement of Mr. Peter Bennett,
197
00:09:41,494 --> 00:09:44,429

President Michael Bennett,
198
00:09:44,430 --> 00:09:46,832

199
00:09:46,833 --> 00:09:50,903
at the Adams' summer residence
on Toronto Island."
200
00:09:50,904 --> 00:09:53,271
Russel will most likely
make an appearance.
201
00:09:54,474 --> 00:09:56,775
- But how are you gonna get in?
- You're still in touch

Welcome. Welcome, everyone.
227
00:11:22,195 --> 00:11:24,796
I want to welcome everyone to my home
228
00:11:24,797 --> 00:11:26,999
to share this day with you,
229
00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:29,101
to share in this beautiful view.
230
00:11:29,102 --> 00:11:32,270
We're here this afternoon to celebrate
231
00:11:32,271 --> 00:11:34,740
this fine young couple.
232
00:11:34,741 --> 00:11:38,276
Peter, my lovely daughter
is now your problem.
233
00:11:38,277 --> 00:11:40,345
Daddy!
234
00:11:40,346 --> 00:11:43,115
Rose, you know I love you.
Now, everyone, I would ask
235
00:11:43,116 --> 00:11:45,517
that you raise your glasses
236
00:11:45,518 --> 00:11:49,821
to the future
Mr. and Mrs. Peter Bennett.
237
00:11:49,822 --> 00:11:52,557
- Cheers to the couple.
- Cheers!
238
00:11:52,558 --> 00:11:55,127
- Peter, congratulations.
- Hear, hear!
239
00:11:55,128 --> 00:11:58,764
- A beautiful day, isn't it?
- You know which one's John Russell?
240
00:11:58,765 --> 00:12:01,500
- I haven't seen him.
- OK, everyone...
241
00:12:01,501 --> 00:12:04,169
Too bad, he's a good tipper
at the Yacht Club.
242
00:12:04,170 --> 00:12:06,171
A bit familiar though
243
00:12:06,172 --> 00:12:08,173
- if you get my drift.
- More drinks here.
244
00:12:08,174 --> 00:12:10,175
- Thanks for the warning.
- Mm-hmm.
245
00:12:10,176 --> 00:12:12,611
Thank you.
246
00:12:12,612 --> 00:12:15,013
I'll be back in a moment.
247
00:12:15,014 --> 00:12:18,083
Excuse me. You... you're the reporter?
248
00:12:18,084 --> 00:12:20,185
Yes. Doris Pittman, Mr. Adams.
249
00:12:20,186 --> 00:12:22,320
Ah, we've been expecting you.
250
00:12:22,321 --> 00:12:24,489
- Of course.
- Oh, yeah.
251
00:12:24,490 --> 00:12:27,292
This is such a lovely party;
you do your daughter proud.
252
00:12:27,293 --> 00:12:30,162
- Thank you.
- Everyone's so stylish,
253
00:12:30,163 --> 00:12:33,465
but none more beautiful than the
lovely Rose and her husband to be.
254
00:12:33,466 --> 00:12:35,467
- The perfect couple!
- Hahaha!
255
00:12:35,468 --> 00:12:37,669
Now, this is for the weekend edition?
256
00:12:37,670 --> 00:12:38,570
Yes siree.
257
00:12:38,571 --> 00:12:41,206
So let's make it good enough
for the front page, shall we?
258
00:12:41,207 --> 00:12:44,976
- Absolutely. Hey.
- Hahaha! OK, you two.
259
00:12:44,977 --> 00:12:48,213
Look at the camera.
260
00:12:48,214 --> 00:12:51,283
That's wonderful. Now,
how about one with the parents?
261
00:12:51,284 --> 00:12:53,251
- Absolutely.
- OK. Honey!
262
00:12:53,252 --> 00:12:55,520
- Yeah.
- You brought a camera;
263
00:12:55,521 --> 00:12:58,857
how very enterprising of you!
264
00:12:58,858 --> 00:13:01,059
- Hemingway.
- So it seems
265
00:13:01,060 --> 00:13:03,328
we're a long way
from a boxing ring, Ms. Drake.
266
00:13:03,329 --> 00:13:05,363
(MR. - Groom to be.
267
00:13:05,364 --> 00:13:07,532
- I think that looks great!
- Ready.
268
00:13:07,533 --> 00:13:09,935
OK, big smiles, everybody.
269
00:13:15,942 --> 00:13:17,876
Why are you impersonating a reporter?
270
00:13:17,877 --> 00:13:21,550
Society weddings, Hemingway?
Really? That's a step down.
271
00:13:21,551 --> 00:13:23,449
My editor is trying to break me,
272
00:13:23,450 --> 00:13:25,484
but damned if I'll give
him that satisfaction.
273
00:13:25,485 --> 00:13:28,821
So he'll get his boring,
predictable headline.
274
00:13:28,822 --> 00:13:31,290
Well, your passion
for the job is staggering.
275
00:13:31,291 --> 00:13:34,660
I hate this city. "Toronto the Good."
276
00:13:34,661 --> 00:13:37,429
Here, you can't even buy candy
at a drugstore on a Sunday.
277
00:13:37,430 --> 00:13:40,566
Well, life's tough.
I'll be seeing you.
278
00:13:40,567 --> 00:13:43,202
Hey, hey, hey, not so fast.
279
00:13:43,203 --> 00:13:45,003
You're gonna tell me
what a private detective
280
00:13:45,004 --> 00:13:48,473
is doing here. And I know
it's not for the free canapés.
281
00:13:49,742 --> 00:13:52,177
- Are you onto something?
- Maybe.
282
00:13:52,178 --> 00:13:53,979
I knew it.
283
00:13:53,980 --> 00:13:57,516
Well, if you'd like me
to keep keeping quiet,
284
00:13:57,517 --> 00:14:00,052
you're gonna have
to give me the scoop.
285
00:14:00,053 --> 00:14:01,854
You're kidding me?
286
00:14:01,855 --> 00:14:04,590
You think I want to continue
to write third-rate columns?
287
00:14:04,591 --> 00:14:06,792
I want to write stories that sizzle,
288
00:14:06,793 --> 00:14:09,328
stories with real meat.
289
00:14:09,329 --> 00:14:12,998
So it's simple:
my silence for your story.
290
00:14:12,999 --> 00:14:14,900
Fine.
291
00:14:14,901 --> 00:14:16,935
I am looking
292
00:14:16,936 --> 00:14:19,705
for a John Russell.
293
00:14:19,706 --> 00:14:22,841
Johnny Russell? That playboy!
294
00:14:22,842 --> 00:14:24,643
You know him?
295
00:14:24,644 --> 00:14:27,379
Yes, I know him. He'll be happy
296
00:14:27,380 --> 00:14:31,149
- to be investigated by you.
- Do you know where he is?
297
00:14:31,150 --> 00:14:33,619
He's not in Toronto. He's in Havana.
298
00:14:33,620 --> 00:14:36,355
- What's he doing there?
- Probably buying candy
299
00:14:36,356 --> 00:14:38,891
on a Sunday. It's Havana.
300
00:14:38,892 --> 00:14:41,126
That's it?
301
00:14:41,127 --> 00:14:42,895
Something to do with casinos.
302
00:14:42,896 --> 00:14:45,030
In reality, he's probably
getting soaked,
303
00:14:45,031 --> 00:14:47,766
but that's just Johnny for you.
304
00:14:52,171 --> 00:14:54,106
Thank you.
305
00:14:54,107 --> 00:14:56,308
Very nice. Very nice.
306
00:14:56,309 --> 00:14:58,310
Thank you. Good job.
307
00:15:12,992 --> 00:15:16,695
♪
308
00:15:22,669 --> 00:15:26,538
- Good afternoon, gentlemen.
- Ms. Clarke!
309
00:15:26,539 --> 00:15:28,140
Who's gonna tell me what's going on?
310
00:15:28,141 --> 00:15:30,375
It's not really what it seems.
311
00:15:30,376 --> 00:15:32,611
Uh, the booze is for medical use only.
312
00:15:32,612 --> 00:15:35,280
I promise. Archie knows this doctor
313
00:15:35,281 --> 00:15:37,683
that writes prescriptions for alcohol
314
00:15:37,684 --> 00:15:40,252
for certain members of the Yacht Club.
315
00:15:40,253 --> 00:15:42,120
Think of us
316
00:15:42,121 --> 00:15:44,189
as a delivery service.
It's not actually
317
00:15:44,190 --> 00:15:46,258
illegal, strictly speaking.
318
00:15:46,259 --> 00:15:48,794
May I have a word with you?
319
00:15:52,432 --> 00:15:54,967
Why didn't you tell us you're
selling booze on the side?
320
00:15:54,968 --> 00:15:57,703
I know it looks bad, but it
was just a way of making money.
321
00:15:57,704 --> 00:16:00,839
Frankie's putting her neck
on the line for you.
322
00:16:00,840 --> 00:16:02,975
So if you're hiding something
else, you'd better come clean.

♪
324
00:16:18,458 --> 00:16:20,525
I'm telling you, Frankie:
325
00:16:20,526 --> 00:16:22,461
you shouldn't be trusting this kid.
326
00:16:22,462 --> 00:16:25,897
Relax. Eric may be playing
fast and loose with the truth,
327
00:16:25,898 --> 00:16:28,734
- but he is not a killer.
- You know, I don't get it.
328
00:16:28,735 --> 00:16:31,169
On all other cases, you are suspicious
329
00:16:31,170 --> 00:16:33,338
of everything that moves.
330
00:16:33,339 --> 00:16:35,540
It's got something to do
with his father,
331
00:16:35,541 --> 00:16:37,676
doesn't it?
332
00:16:39,946 --> 00:16:41,947
You know what I think?
333
00:16:41,948 --> 00:16:44,116
Captain Morrison,
334
00:16:44,117 --> 00:16:46,885
wartime boss, wartime fling.
335
00:16:48,921 --> 00:16:50,756
And now his son shows up.
336
00:16:50,757 --> 00:16:53,759
Yeah. It's awkward.
337
00:16:55,561 --> 00:16:57,796
What happened? The war ended,
and he went back to his wife?
338
00:16:57,797 --> 00:17:00,799
Yes, thank God!
339
00:17:00,800 --> 00:17:02,968
It had run its course.
340
00:17:02,969 --> 00:17:05,237
No need for Eric to know by the way.
341
00:17:05,238 --> 00:17:08,106
Lips sealed.
342
00:17:16,382 --> 00:17:18,183
Is it too late for that cold gin?
343
00:17:18,184 --> 00:17:21,686
Of course not. Come in.
344
00:17:24,390 --> 00:17:26,792
So, how did it turn out with the kid?
345
00:17:26,793 --> 00:17:29,895
Ugh, it's a long story
involving a trunk
346
00:17:29,896 --> 00:17:31,863
and a dead body.
347
00:17:31,864 --> 00:17:34,941
- You don't want to know.
- You knew his father?
348
00:17:34,942 --> 00:17:37,577
He recruited me during the war.
349
00:17:37,578 --> 00:17:40,713
- To do what?
- I ran messages to the front.
350
00:17:40,714 --> 00:17:42,715
- Oh.
- It's amazing
351
00:17:42,716 --> 00:17:44,717
how a gal can be so invisible.
352
00:17:44,718 --> 00:17:47,053
- You were his eyes and ears?
- Something like that.
353
00:17:47,054 --> 00:17:49,155
So there's even more to the story.
354
00:17:49,156 --> 00:17:51,691
Well...
355
00:17:52,860 --> 00:17:55,528
...it's all behind me now.
356
00:17:55,529 --> 00:17:57,797
What about you?
357
00:17:57,798 --> 00:18:00,733
You're not exactly an open book.
358
00:18:01,936 --> 00:18:04,737
My grandparents were
slaves in Louisiana.
359
00:18:04,738 --> 00:18:06,906
Now I grew up in the bayou.
360
00:18:06,907 --> 00:18:08,908
Mostly French spoken down there.
361
00:18:08,909 --> 00:18:12,378
- So what brought you here?
- When I was old enough,
362
00:18:12,379 --> 00:18:14,981
I went to New Orleans.
363
00:18:14,982 --> 00:18:17,350
Turns out I was pretty good
with my hands.
364
00:18:17,351 --> 00:18:18,818
Haha!
365
00:18:18,819 --> 00:18:21,754
Started fighting town to town,
ended up here.
366
00:18:21,755 --> 00:18:25,558
All on my own, just like you.
367
00:18:27,328 --> 00:18:31,531
- Birds of a feather.
- Volent ensemble.
368
00:18:42,497 --> 00:18:45,099
Your trunk man was
bludgeoned to death.
369
00:18:45,100 --> 00:18:46,767
Nasty blow,
370
00:18:46,768 --> 00:18:49,636
usual blunt object;
killers are not very creative.
371
00:18:49,637 --> 00:18:53,941
Carpet fibres in the wound,
so obviously killed elsewhere.
372
00:18:53,942 --> 00:18:55,920
- Time of death?
- Between 6 and 11 on the night
373
00:18:55,921 --> 00:18:57,822
he was found. No idea who he was.
374
00:18:57,823 --> 00:19:01,793
- Do you have the suit he was wearing?
- Mhm.
375
00:19:04,130 --> 00:19:06,631
He sure got his money's worth
out of this thing.
376
00:19:09,535 --> 00:19:11,936
Heavy smoker.
377
00:19:13,339 --> 00:19:14,873
Likely a pipe.
378
00:19:14,874 --> 00:19:17,409
Hand-made. Label's pretty faded.
379
00:19:17,410 --> 00:19:19,611
Looks like to be a Gerber
or Gelber Tailoring.
380
00:19:19,612 --> 00:19:21,613
Nice work, Sherlock.
381
00:19:21,614 --> 00:19:24,315
Mr. Gelber and I had a nice chat
about his pipe-smoking customer.
382
00:19:24,316 --> 00:19:27,652
- You called him?
- It was the obvious thing to do.

Here's the victim's name.

385
00:19:32,958 --> 00:19:36,628
By the way, the cops
found a ship's marking

Your victim, Buddy Steele,
he was well-known to police.

- You don't say.
- But not in the way
391

He was a private detective.
392

You're kidding?
By the wear of his suit,
393

- It's a tough business.
394
00:20:01,554 --> 00:20:04,656
- How old?
- 28. He hung out his shingle
395
00:20:04,657 --> 00:20:07,125
- when he got back from the war.
- Sounds familiar.
396
00:20:07,126 --> 00:20:10,528
- Any idea what sort of person he was?
- Well, from all accounts,
397
00:20:10,529 --> 00:20:12,530
he was a bit rough
around the edges, but fair.
398
00:20:12,531 --> 00:20:15,733

Absolutely! I'm a far better match
687
00:36:44,465 --> 00:36:46,300

- Oh, this is absurd.
688
00:36:46,301 --> 00:36:49,236
