Good afternoon, Mrs. Banks. Nice to see you again.

Good afternoon, Father. -Goedemiddag, Michael.

It will be a long, hot summer. -Oh yeah?

Please, Michael. I can better take that hat up.

Not much difference, right?

My kids are restless.

And if they are restless, I know. That's great anyway?

Good afternoon. What time should I pick you up? About an hour?

That's fine. -Well, I'll come back in an hour.

How do you find the car? Buy him?

I doubt I can, but I'll try it.

Nice young man.

He thinks occasionally a lonely old man.

He sometimes comes cards with me. That's a nice distraction.

The tea is ready. -Lekker Tea.

The clock has stopped at three o'clock and there's strawberry jam on bread?

Did someone say that?

That quote is not quite right, but the idea is good.

It is a wonderful world. God has him given us.

He even gave us animals to tell us how great it is here.

But we never listen.

It will be a long, hot summer.

Judging from the knot, John pulled his shirts from his body.

The government imports Polish eggs.

Then they are not very fresh when they come here.

It is the principle. Just buy British stuff.

The colonies helped us in the war. -There Are no British eggs.

Two pence per dozen is cheap. And many customers want cheap eggs.

Though there are no British eggs, there is British butter.

Now the government buys Polish eggs. Later we also buy Polish butter.

He drives like a charm. -As Suits you in sales.

You lend him a week and they know that you m want.

But he will be back tomorrow. -Think That for a moment.

Suppose that it is both a birthday and a Christmas gift.

There is nothing wrong with our car. -But Dad, that's your car.

I'm old enough to own a car. -Go First but work for a living.

I wanted to you in the case. I'm not ashamed.

Your mother and I want something better for you and Opal.

You need to get a men's job. -We Worked so long before.

Thirty till evening eight. Only Sundays free.

Thus, it is still on the market. -But It is not so simple.

To get a men's job, you have to be born as a gentleman.

This is not America with equal opportunities for all.

We have created our own chances.

The first store spent £ 20 per week. We lived on.

How many stores we have now? -Twaalf.

Look at that. -I understand what you mean.

You did what was expected of you class.

You want me to do something that does not suit me.

Have you ever heard of a grocer's son from East Ham ...

the adviser to the king or admiral of a fleet?

The volunteer army does not even want me. -I just know that you are spending too much.

But, vader.

I can never spend too much if I barely have money.

You need to give John the car. Other young men have one too.

We now live in Chisham and otherwise or it is nothing.

In East Ham did not matter.

So you can not go, John.

You've always wanted in the case. That's the best you can do.

You do not understand, Father.

That's too late for that. I do not feel it anymore.

Your father is right. Think about to enter the case.

Do not worry, Ma. You will see that I am still a gentleman.

Good afternoon, Opal. Is John home?

Is John home?

He was in the salon, I think.

He buys the car? -I do not know.

You should just ask him. -Thank you.

What does everyone tonight? Maybe your father wants to play rummy.

Good afternoon everyone. Mrs. Banks, Mr. Banks.

How did the new car? Buy him? -I have already decided, but dad yet.

It was not good that your mine was not allowed in the case.

But which car you get from me. -Sit Down, Danny.

How's business? -fantastic.

Dad said he had never sold as much beer as last week.

Shall we play rummy tonight? -Graag, But not too early.

I can come at half past eight, nine hours. That's fine, Danny.

You know all the latest news? -Opal Has again seen a ghost.

I do not see any ghosts.

But there is a spirit realm and communicating with some of us.

Michael Moonshine seems to be here.

Wie is Michael Moonshine? -De echte Bulldog Drummond.

Raffles, Robin Hood.

The boldest jewelry thief who has ever been there.

The case-Kerensky. That's what I've read about.

Groothertogin Kerensky was de nicht van koningin Alexandra.

She was the only survived the Russian Revolution.

Her emerald had been stolen when she was at Queen Alexandra.

That seems like a smart man. -it Was indeed a clever man.

He never finger- and footprints.

Nobody knows who it was. No one saw him.

He disappeared into the night. That's why they call him Michael Moonshine.

Where did these stories come from?

There have recently been stolen valuable jewelery in the region.

The police suspect Michael Moonshine. -I rather think ...

the Secretary of Sir Leonard Pullman. What a creep.

That is a prejudice and you know it.

I had to yours Sir Leopold become secretary.

But I'm not in the right class. -And That guy at Smith?

There he studied the bees.

That seems a strange hobby for a man like him.

You're not going to the farm? -I get that old man.

Then you can drop me off. I'm going to talk to our friend.

He comes in a few minutes.

Do you know...

I would not want to be the generation that boy.

We knew our place. A servant was a servant.

If you were the boss, you were the boss. Youngsters do not know where they belong.

Yes, that is quite true, unfortunately.

Every person should know where he belongs. Up there.

That boy should have gone into the army. He is a good tactician.

So you do not think criminology is a science.

I do not know for sure. You can find hagiologie a science?

What is that? -It Has nothing to do with witches.

That is the study of sacred things. Saints and all.

They were used to make a science of good people.

But we are only interested in knowing about poor people.

The general opinion seems to me that every human being was ever a saint.

And each man has a killer in itself.

You do not mean that everyone can be a killer?

Theologically, I mean though.

I never had this fascination for Sunday papers ...

To read about murderers and their lives.

When I read about crime, I read about crime where I enjoy.

You're wrong if you say that every man can be a killer.

All murders are divided into rational and irrational.

Let us first take the irrational.

There is such a thing as murder sigh or a penchant for massacres.

There is murder out of revenge. A woman murders the man who abandoned her.

And then there is murder out of jealousy.

And your rational murders?

Someone can murder another to get what he owns.

So greed. He can murder someone for political power.

Pastor Brown is right. You know that I am a gentle person.

Yet I nearly killed someone once.

I also think that if I had to do it, I did it.

And none of the reasons that you enumerated.

You Pastor Brown asked tonight to eat.

Yeah, I know, Barnard. I wear my little pearl necklace with earrings.

As often as the church comes food. -Wear Nothing.

Nothing? -No Jewelry.

Why not? -You Social obligations are too expensive.

I do not like it what I've read. That was always like that, honey.

Methodist, Catholic, Salvation Army, Anglican, Presbyterian.

I know that you are open-minded, but do not let them see what we have.

They want much more from you, and I must give it to them.

You know what, we're going through it.

Oh yes, I've had problems in my youth.

I knew my place. I was born on the upscale side of Belgrave Square.

Unfortunately, my father was a gambler.

I had my place in society, but no money to keep it.

There you will have that boy. -Don't Worry about the farm.

I wish you much pleasure with your sister. -Thank You, Father.

Here we are. Ready? -Jazeker. Good afternoon, Daniel.

We've known each other. -lnderdaad.

You enjoy modern travel. -I wish I could afford it.

Nice car. -He Flies like a bird.

I would like that. A plane in the air.

We go to Croydon 's excursion to see London from above.

Not speeding. This is a fast car.

You know very well that I like to take a ride in a fast car.

What was fast in those days at least.

So, we're done. Ah, here it goes then.

You must excuse me. I have to go.

I have a benediction and an appointment.

I wish I was not always asked for expensive dinners. Seven courses.

While one way or maybe two is enough.

Or send the money from the six courses to the poor ...

a lamb chop for me and it's good. They do not entertain me.

It is good for the poor and very good for my digestion. Good afternoon.

Are you very busy, Mr. Carver?

It should be very interesting critters. Bees.

I see no difference between a wasp.

Really? Come take a look.

But you can not tame the hobby?

Maybe I think after all the tension a little rest or nice.

What is going on? -I do not know.

Wat is er?

Young man.

But it's a good car. -Pullmans Son is not one of those.

And we can'm also pay best.

I have said that he is now in the case should if he wants.

He should be able to find something that a gentleman can do.

I think a gentleman would never deliberately hurt another.

Sometimes you do best with someone and hurt you to do.

Can not we eat sometime quiet?

If you play rummy after dinner with us? -Food, Mother.

The word is food.

I row is still one round for Danny. I can not buy that car anyway.

That's enough, son.

I'm going to read. -If You do not want cards ...

You can not go anywhere to meet people?

She could have been married. -He Did not suit her.

Of course, since he was not a gentleman. -Take A bit, honey.

Pastor Mahoney will always eat here twice a year.

We are sorry that he is ill. -Nice guy.

Do you want to stay long in Chisham? -A Month or two.

Do you like our little town? -It is beautiful.

We are proud of our history. -We On ours.

The city was built under Henry VIII.

It was a city where lived his courtiers.

Sir Leopold's title dates from that time. -How interesting.

A Queen Anne's officers was Sir Leopold Pullman.

The parish church from the 11th century. The tombs are particularly interesting.

Many Pullman's are buried there. And one of the sons of Henry II.

At that time there were forests.

The church has a lot of history in it in the cemetery.

Under Elizabeth Catholics were burned.

The Reformed Church spent much torture caused.

You surpassed us with your Bloody Mary.

Pride in your religion is almost as sinful as pride in other cases.

No potatoes.

Is it not written in the Bible:

Do not drink water, but wine because of your stomach and your ailments.

Yes, St. Paul Timothy. But the revelation is also:

I give plenty of water to those who thirst.

What was that?

lk ben bang dat die arme man dood is.

You must call the police, sir Leopold.

With your permission, I need to go somewhere.

My name is Brown and I replace Mahoney pastor of Saint Mary.

You seem a little shocked.

You are pastor, huh? -Yes indeed.

I'm so glad you're here. I've seen a ghost.

Oh heaven. There you need not be scared.

Most ghosts are not real and the real do nothing.

Was it a special spirit? -No.

It was not the mind itself, but more of a feeling.

A feeling of terrible disrepair.

A kind of luminous demise.

Indeed, it was a face in the window, very pale.

It looked like Judas lskariot. -Some People look like this.

They sometimes look through the window. Where was it?

We have to go this way.

It was here, priest.

I was reading in that chair and face was there.

Have a look. Now there is nothing to me. -Hello Danny.

Mother, this is Father Brown.

I'm being bold in your home.

But I think I can explain why I am so anxious.

lk at bij Sir Leopold en Lady Pullman.

And while I was in that house, I witnessed something that happened there.

Then what? -A Robbery and something much worse.

The jewelry Lady Pullman are stolen and their secretary was killed.

How awful. -I have put tea. Pastor Brown.

John, the jewelry Lady Pullman stolen.

And Mr. Barnard was murdered. -I am interested in that face.

When I was in Beechwood House, I saw someone in the garden.

Danny, kom binnen .

In Beechwood House burgled and murdered someone.

We need facts.

Is it true that you have a couple of fine jewelry?

Yeah, I got it from my husband. -You Need to check your jewelry box.

Where do you keep them? -In my sewing room in a drawer.

Which is locked? -If We leave.

I look a while. -John, Beware.

I can look after myself, mother.

Dat is Danny. -Er is ingebroken in Beechwood House.

I'm gonna check programs jewelery.

Good evening. My name is Carver.

I think Father Brown is here. -Which can. Come in.

Fine, thank you.

It's raining cats steal. -Absolutely. This way.

But you only saw the face, not the body.

That too, but I do not remember. I was shocked.

And he looked at Judas lskariot? Judas was a young man.

Pastoor Brown, er is ene Mr Carver voor u.

Inspector. -Good Evening.

Youth, and now we see each other again.

You naturally want to know why I'm here.

You thought I think I was a very good and well-known burglar.

Like you said, you do not always see much difference between a wasp and a bee.

I am one of the most useful, but also troublesome insects.

I'm Detective.

I am in this region to investigate the renewed activities ...

van ene Michael Moonshine. -Waar is John?

I'll go take a look.

Pastor Brown asked me to come.

Sorry. I think I killed him.

It is the old Mr. Smith.

So you came here, the drawer was open and your mother's jewelry was gone.

Yes that's right. -You Walked down the stairs and heard something.

The window was not open? -No.

If what is it used?

Linen closet.

Have you looked not in here? -No, I wanted to quickly call the police.

That makes sense. He had firmly hidden therein.

Good that you have not looked in here.

So you went down when you hear a sound.

And ran back upstairs to your room ...

to get your gun in your dresser.

How do you get a gun?

I had signed up for the volunteer army.

I bought it to practice on weekends.

I sit namely a shooting.

You saw the window open and someone walking in the garden.

Yes that's right. -Why Did you not shoot?

I did not know who it was. The dad could be.

So you ran down and then out into the garden?

Where you saw Smith. -Yes.

And he shot at you. -Yes.

We know that, because your parents and I have seen that.

You shot obviously back and killed him.

Do not worry.

You will of course be questioned, but you're innocent.

I will tell Mr. Carver. Thank you.

I think that was all. I fear that Michael was smarter than me.

Michael was only one thing well: his profession.

I said at Pullman that pride is sinful.

The sin of Michael slain pride. I like it very much.

John is being condemned. -They Can make him anything.

No, Mrs. Banks. Of course not.

What happens to my son? Nothing, Mrs. Banks.

He will be questioned about Smith. But one man who had been murdered.

It will show that Barnard was killed by a bullet from Smith.

And we know that Smith wanted to murder your son.

I can testify. Thank you, Lieutenant.

I think it's handled so. Michael had everything thought out very cleverly.

He asked John wegbracht him.

May I ask you a few questions? Certainly.

When you lived with Smith, you knew he was Michael Moonshine?

Yes, we have long known.

He has stopped over 20 years ago with hacking.

We could not prove anything. He knew what he had to sell the loot.

Michael knew more about the business than anyone.

He always helped us very well ...

if we wanted to know who had bought a stolen jewel.

And we forgot who he was. -You Still lived with Mr. Smith ...

because you studied some burglaries in the district?

Michael was very smart. He knew more famous jewelry than anyone.

Through him we knew where the thief could strike.

And it turns out to be self-Michael Smith.

He knew the jewelry from Pullman. They were very famous.

But how he knew the jewelry of Mrs. Banks?

I've told him about. -But why?

I remember when we were on an evening talk and I said ...

which ma her jewelry box and the key was in the same office.

And that the back door is often open. -You Knew Mrs. Smith very well.

You talked in the evening with him. He never aroused suspicion with you?

No, he loved a quiet game of cards, that's all.

Where are the jewels?

Mr. Smith is dead, but he had no jewelry with her.

They always have an accomplice. A real thief never has anything with him.

I forgot to mention something. Someone called to pass something to you

Your colleagues are looking for what you call the accomplice.

Police Holmdale was the sister of Mr. Smith.

Did she say that he remained an hour and then left?

She said that Mr. Smith was not with her. She had not seen him in a month.

He never arrived at his sister. -You Have taken away him anyway?

Yes, but I dropped him in the village. He wanted to buy a present for her.

That is a very good explanation. So he has an alibi.

He was stuck there another car.

You masterfully resolved a major issue.

I admire it very much, but I must say that I do nothing of faith.

We have known for years that Smith was Michael Moonshine.

I know that he was Michael Moonshine.

And also that he was not in tonight Beechwood House.

He did not kill Barnard, Mrs. Banks not robbed.

And he was not shot on the run.

But you saw him at Beechwood House. Miss Banks saw him too.

I saw Smith not at Beechwood House and Miss Banks ...

Michael Smith did not look through that window.

The man with the beard was not ... What was he?

ln Beechwood House zag u alles.

And now you see it again here with your own eyes.

I have a lot of things with my own eyes that I did not believe.

So Michael Moonshine is not in the garden?

Michael Smith is in the garden. There's no doubt about it.

With all due respect, what do you think?

Many think that we know nothing, but we know man.

lk ken Michael Smith al jaren.

He then confessed to me and again here in Chisham.

So he said that he do not steal jewelry from rich more.

A confession people are not necessarily his actions, but his thoughts.

As far as anyone knows his mind.

And I know that when Michael left this afternoon ...

his mind just a glass beehive was full of golden bees.

Very nice. -Michael Was a notorious criminal.

But his change was genuine, and that is an understatement.

He has repented and he has taken out a lot of good.

or I was his confessor, but I went to him for support.

I was happy with such a good person.

If anyone was going to heaven, it was Michael.

He was a thief and a murderer. -He Was not a murderer.

You know that was promised to the thief:

Today shalt thou be with me in paradise.

Michael Moonshine is there in the garden.

He is seen at Beechwood House and here.

I can not explain, sir.

But I do see some strange things.

I have no proof of his innocence, except the man himself.

But I know I'm right.

But wait, I have something happy.

This is a strange thing.

Michael Smith is out in the garden with a beard.

Here's one more. But why would Mr. Smith have two beards?

Michael Moonshine always wore a disguise?

We know that for years he had a red beard. Where did you find them?

When you investigated a crime I committed there.

lk heb bij Michael ingebroken.

En ik vond deze waar ik wist dat hij was. ln de la van de keukenkast.

Dat zegt niets. Michael had misschien twee baarden.

Ja, dat had gekund.

lk kom morgen weer. Dan kan ik alles misschien ophelderen.

Hoorden jullie dat? -Dat leek Johns auto wel.

Een hele snelle auto. -Hij vindt van wel.

Hij zal vanavond zowel ver als snel gaan.

Wat wilt u daarmee zeggen? -lk wou zeggen dat hij niet terugkomt.

John Banks vermoedde dat ik iets wist door wat ik had gezegd.

John Banks is weg.

En hij heeft de collectie van Pullman en z'n moeders sieraden meegenomen.

Bedoelt u dat mijn zoon heeft ingebroken en twee mensen vermoord?

lk vrees dat ik dat bedoel.

lk ga met pensioen. lk ga het huisje kopen.

lk heb het aan de bijen verteld. lemand moet dat namelijk doen.

Die zingende metselaars die daken van goud bouwen.

lk ga het huisje kopen.

Hij zou gewild hebben dat de bijen verzorgd worden.

We laten hem opsporen. -Hij weet waar hij alles kan verkopen.

Hij kan twee weken het leven leiden dat z'n moeder hem wou geven.

We gaan naar binnen. lk heb thee.

Het is heerlijke honing.

Zoals u ziet, loop je min of meer bij toeval ergens tegenaan.

En al vanaf het begin was er een struikelblok.

lk was in verwarring omdat Barnard bij Beechwood House was doodgeschoten.

Ook al was Michael een meester- crimineel, het was z'n eer te na...

om iemand bij een inbraak te vermoorden.

Michael heeft nooit iemand vermoord, maar dat kon natuurlijk wel gebeuren.

Dat klopt. Toen ik in het huis was, zag ik alleen die figuur met die rode baard.

lk zag hoe kwiek, hoe snel hij zich bewoog.

En Michael was natuurlijk niet jong meer.

Ja, ik moet toegeven dat dat punt me is ontgaan.

Kon Michael uit het slaapkamerraam springen?

Juist. Toen ik hier in de kamer van die arme Michael inbrak...

en z'n baard vond, vond ik ook deze, inspecteur.

Kijk eens.

Een plattegrond van Beechwood House. -Dit is heel bijzonder. Kijk maar.

Een plattegrond van huize Banks. -Die bracht me in verwarring.

Michael zei namelijk altijd dat als hij z'n hachje waagde, wat hij vaak deed...

hij dat alleen deed voor iets waardevols.

De smaragden van Kerensky, de zaak-Manhattan.

Waarom zou Michael Mrs Banks van haar sieraden beroven?

Die waren maar een paar honderd pond waard.

Gisteravond drong de waarheid opeens tot m'n verstand door.

Gevoelsmatig wist ik het al.

lemand had nog een baard gemaakt...

en bij Michael bevestigd toen hij in Banks z'n tuin lag.

Maar hoe wist u dat het John Banks was?

Als Michael een zwakheid had, was het z'n trots, z'n ijdelheid.

U weet dat hij een paar gewaagde acties heeft uitgevoerd.

Hij hield ervan om daarover te praten, zoals oude mannen graag praten.

En hij praatte met John Banks. En tijdens het praten, droomde hij.

Hij droomde over het plannen van nieuwe acties, meer niet.

Maar hij plande ze met John Banks en John Banks voerde ze uit.

Hij had eerst Michael Smith vermoord en ik weet precies hoe dat is gegaan.

Maar waarom heeft John Banks het gedaan?

Volgens mij hoort John Banks bij de middenklasse.

Hij is noch een echte heer, noch een echte arbeider.

Hij hoorde niet bij de klasse van z'n ouders.

En hij kon niet bij de andere.

Had John ook die andere diefstallen gepleegd?

Daar had hij of Michael niks mee te maken. U moet die dader nog zoeken.

lk vraag me af waarom Michael z'n oude vermomming nog had.

Het punt is dat hij die vermomming niet meer wilde...

maar hij was er niet bang voor.

Die baard vernietigen was voor hem iets verkeerds.

Alsof hij zich verstopte en dat deed hij niet. Niet voor zichzelf of voor God.

We pakken John Banks wel. -Ja, dat zal best.

Zoals ik zei, weet hij van Michael waar hij z'n spullen moet verkopen.

Maar iets belangrijks wat Michael wel wist, weet hij niet.

Hoe hij moet verdwijnen.

Het is in feite een nieuw en uniek motief voor moord.

Het was geen jaloezie, hebzucht of macht.

Noch rationeel, noch irrationeel. -Precies.

Arme Michael.

Toen hij daar lag, dacht ik dat hij nog een dief en ook een moordenaar was.

Zo komt alles weer terug bij de bijen en de wespen.

Ze lijken erg veel op elkaar, nietwaar?
