Mary, there�s a package over there!

Someone must have dropped it.
- Let�s see what it is.

Maybe it's valuable..
- Hold this..

Wait for me!

Major..
- Hello Brixan..

Have a good trip?
- Oh,a bit stormy..

Cigarette?
- Oh yes..

Cant the secret service afford
cigarettes that taste half decent?

They're always cutting
the budget around here

How about one of yours?

You probably brought back
some good ones with you.

You bet I did, major..
Please, have one..

Thanks..
- Thanks a lot..

Take a seat..

Do you remember Francis Elmer,
from the cipher section?

Francis Elmer?
Oh yes, I remember him..

He used to beat me at poker..

Read this..
- Thank you..

If Your mental or physical
unhappiness is unbearable

and you are not strong enough
to take the final step,

write to the advertising department
of this paper under "Benefactor"!

Well, what do you think of it?

It was found in one of
Francis Elmer�s suits

So what?

Is this the reason you brought
me back from Istanbul?

You said you knew Elmer, very well

Why do you say, knew?

isn't he in the cipher department
any more?

He was, he disappeared
three weeks ago.

On examining his papers,

and of course we knew he had
access to secret documents,

we found he had been
systematically photo-copying them.

Francis Elmer?
Impossible!

What do you want me to do about it?

Go out and find him, and turn
him over to Scotland Yard?

No Brixan,I cant send you
after Elmer now,

they�ve already got him.
Or, at least, part of him!

Here, read this..

A box near the Esher railway crossing.
The Executioner

The box was found,
and Elmer�s head was in it.

The 12th victim of The Executioner

Well then, Scotland Yard
should have a good time with this.

This case is confidential,

It may have political background

So the foreign secretary wants us,
to handle the investigation.

So you want me, to investigate?

Yes, since you're in security branch,

and so was Elmer

Sorry I cant give you
anymore than this, to go on

But we do know,
that Elmer was seen by his niece

At Winchester station

Here are some photographs,
they�re recent ones

Well well, I had no idea Elmer
had such a lovely niece.

Ruth Sanders..

She's working as an extra,
at the Savoy Film Company

And right now, they�re
doing exteriors, near Winchester

She doesn't know yet..
It's been kept very quiet..

Alright,Major..

What do you think
is behind the murders?

Have you worked out
any kind of a theory?

The Executioner, seems to have the idea
that he's some kind of avenger

Especially since his victims are
nearly all, hardened criminals

And this theory is not good,

because two of them,
were completely innocent.

An autopsy showed,
they had incurable disease�s

So you see Brixan,
I'm handing it all over to you

I give up..
- Aren't there any other clues?

Yes, the enclosed letters were all
written on the same typewriter.

An old Remington, model number 1929

And notice, the G and the U are not
level with the other characters

Further more, an old four door sedan
has been seen each time,

near where the heads were discovered

It's either The Executioner,
or his accomplice

Actually, how do you know
the murderer is a man?

It could just as easily be a woman.

No no, each time, the head has
been chopped off by a single blow

With an axe, or something like it

It could only be a man
of great physical strength

So, that�s it..
That's all I know..

You'll have to do the rest, yourself..

Willie..
- Yes?

This tree is ruining the shot

Tiny..
- Yeah?

Cut it down..

Hey wait, such a beautiful tree
You should ask the owner first

It's down..

Oh great, here he comes now..

I'm sorry for cutting the
tree down before asking you,

but I couldn't find you.

However, we�II certainly pay for it

Oh please, think nothing of it

Its a pleasure for me to help you,
and put my place is at your disposal

And as the tree was in the way..
- Bernie!

You can cut down the other tree,
if it's in the way

Where on earth is Mendoza?
- I looked for her, she�s not here.

She never is, when she's needed
Now find her!

Miss Mendoza! Miss Mendoza!

Will you please hurry up..
We're behind schedule

I haven't even had
time to put on my wig!

Always in a hurry!

Excuse me Mr Jackson..
- Yes, what is it?

Can I speak to you a minute?
- If it's necessary..

My name is Ruth Sanders

And I wondered if you could
tell me about the screen test

I did for you a few months ago

Up to now, I�ve heard
nothing about it

You must learn
to have patience my dear

Patience is all I do have
- Well, good for you

Are you in the next scene
we're about to shoot?

No..
- Well, I�m sure you'll excuse me.

Hello Mr Jackson
Everything going well?

Yes, thank you..
Good afternoon..

I know that you are looking
for a house with spooks

But I'm afraid there's
nothing like that around here

The family ghost retired
a good many years ago

Perhaps I can offer you a substitute

You see, I�m very interested
in modern screenplays

But my favourites are the ones
with an historical background

The life of my great uncle,
Charles Henry Longvale

would make an excellent film script

and I would like to play his part

Oh,so you're anxious to be in a film?

Your forefathers, are said,
to have achieved great deeds,

in the history of France

Are you French?
- No, my grandfather settled down here

Well, think my proposal over..
Goodbye..

Everyone wants to be in movies..
Are you ready?

Scene 56 take 1

Stop!

Who is this idiot?
He's ruining the scene

What are you doing here?
- I'm sorry..

Why didn't you block off the roads?

Couldn't you see,
we�re making a film here?

It was always my wish,
to get into films

If you don�t want me,
then I'll get into television

Oh get out of here!

You are Miss Sanders, aren�t you?

Yes..
- I'm a reporter..

Do you mind if I sit here?
Thank you..

I've come about Francis Elmer

Has my uncle been found then?
- No no no... not yet..

But perhaps you can
give me some information

What for?
I've told the police everything I know

Yes the police, of course..
But as I told you, I�m from the press

Let me try to explain

This is my first big job

And if I show up at my
editors office empty handed,

he'll tear the hide off me..
- No, I wouldn't want that to happen

That's very good of you..
- Now, what do you want to know?

The last time you saw your uncle,
it was in Winchester, right?

Yes..
- Weren't you a little surprised?

Of course, but I only saw him for a second
when our bus stopped beside him

He was looking
very pale and exhausted

And just where was that,
do you remember?

Yes, it was in front of a news stand

And he had a paper under his arm and a...
- And?

And a letter in his hand

Oh,but you didn't mention
this before, did you?

Why not?

I know, I only saw him for a moment

It was such a surprise,
that I forgot where I had seen him

But this morning,
when we came the same way

We passed by the news stand,
and then I remembered everything.

Will you be quiet on the set!
- I'm sorry Mr Jackson...

What's that fellow doing here anyway?
Get rid of him..

He's from the press..
- From the press?

Why are they interviewing an extra?
I'm the star of this movie!

And another thing..

I'd like to know who's the idiot
that wrote this script?

Three idiots my dear..
And I was one of them..

I thought so..
I haven't got one good scene!

Everything was written for Connolly!

Do you know why,
it had to be written that way?

Because all you've got,
are your looks

You cant even read a line right

You only have one facial expression,

and for years you've given the audience
that same miserable expression

Now now now..
- That's enough talk,

I�d like to get back to work

Fine, but not before
the script is changed!

Otherwise, I�II leave..
- Then, goodbye..

The script stays the way it is..

And how do you plan
to make the film?

Don't worry about it..

I can always find another talent,
as remarkable as yours

Ready camera..
- Here..

Forget it!

She's gone..

It doesn't matter..
I wanted to stop anyway..

The light was no good, for
"The Mendoza"

Ok,thank you..
That's all..

I have a suggestion..

How about driving to Winchester,

and you can show me
where the news stand is.

I think my car is a little
bit faster than the bus..

Don't you?

What on earth is that funny noise?

I always like to think that there is
a little bird under the bonnet

And because it's
singing such a pretty song,

I don't want to disturb it

And I could have sworn
it was the fan belt..

Oh,now you've ruined my little dream..

And did he buy a newspaper?
- No he didn't..

He stopped for a letter
that was left here for him

But he had a newspaper under his arm
The Daily Mail..

And all this made me very curious

I remember very well,
that one advertisement

was underlined very heavily,
with red pencil

And I put a copy of that paper aside

Typical small town, isn�t it?

Everyone knows everyone else's business

Here it is,
and that's the advert..

Let me see that!

Your last instructions await you
at the usual address. Have courage.

The Benefactor.

Great, the benefactor..

Tell me, how did he act?

Was he relaxed or a little nervous?

Nervous and pale..
Nervous and very confused

Confused?

Thanks a lot..

The first thing I have to find out,
is who placed the ad in this paper

I should have begun searching
in London, from the start

But then, I wouldn't have met you..

That's true.. But the main thing is,
you found out about the ad

I don't know about that..

Miss Sanders,
we've had a good days work

And I would like to thank you for
your help, by taking you to dinner

Well, I don't know..

The director doesn't like anyone in
the company going off by themselves

Couldn't you, for me,
make an exception?

I'm afraid it's impossible, I�m sorry..

Oh,my bus...
Goodbye...

Hey,wait for me!

Miss Sanders should be here soon, sir..

Why didn't we hire her before, Frankie?

Her screen-test was good..
- We hired her as an extra

Oh yes, the cast was complete..

You know, I think the test is better now,
than when I first saw it..

Yes, same here..
There she is..

Yes..

Good afternoon
- Good afternoon..

You wanted to speak to me,
Mr Jackson?

Yes, please sit down..
- Thank you..

Miss Sanders, I want to talk to
you about your screen-test

Why, thank you..

Have you ever played a major role?

No, I�m still in acting school..
And sometimes I work as an extra..

Do you think you could play
Stella Mendoza's part?

But Mr Jackson, me?
- Yes..

I don't know..
No... I..

I think you could do it,
Miss Sanders..

Frankie, a script..

And so, something that
happens only in films

and comes true for a few
Has come true for you..

This is your big chance

Here, read the script, learn a scene,
and come back and do it for me

And I hope our film
will be a great success..

Thank you..

Very sweet girl..

Miss Sanders?
May I have your autograph?

Oh please, don�t joke
I may get to play the lead

But I have to audition first..
Knock on wood..

I think I've seen this act before..

In the centre there is a door
with iron bars..

through which a guard
can be seen pacing up and down...

Just a minute!

The typewriter!

What is it?
- Where did this come from?

One minute..
No, this scene isn't from my script..

I must speak to the director..
- Oh no, please don't..

You'll put him in a bad mood

And I have to read for him very soon!

I'm sorry..
- Cant you see I'm busy?

Besides, it�s much too soon
to write anything about that girl

Special branch?

Have a seat, what can I do for you?

Can you tell me who wrote this?

It's not in our film, that�s for sure

Where did you get it?

That doesn't matter
But I must know who wrote this

Ask Mr Voss to come in
- Ok..

Yes, thank you..

Why are you so interested
in this script page?

Or aren't you allowed to say?

It's strictly confidential..

I'm sure that this scene was written
on the same typewriter,

as were the notes that
The Executioner sends his victims

Executioner?

You wanted to see me?

Mr Voss is our story reader,Mr Brixan

Mr Brixan would like to know,

what script this page is from,
and who wrote it

Are you from the film censors office?

Very funny..
- Cut it out, Voss..

Mr Brixan is from special branch
We must tell him anything we can

Well I don't know

I'll have to take it with me,
to my room,

and check back among the entries,
to see who sent it to us

I'll have to check back
through my records first,Mr..

Brixan..
- You can trust me, I wont lose it

Funny fellow..
- Yes, a frustrated genius

Actually, he wanted to
be a writer or a director

Now he drowns his sorrow in alcohol,

and as a result,
he's always in some money trouble

But the stories he picks for us,
are always excellent

Excuse me for a minute,
I think I better keep an eye on..

Voss, That page could still get lost

Yes, he�s downstairs, room number 2
- Thank you

Excuse me a second Miss Sanders
But I want to..

To thank you, again

For the second time,
you've been of great help to me

Does it have anything to do
with the page from the script?

Yes..

And with the news stand?
- Yes

And with the advertisement
- Yes

You're a detective Mr Brixan,
aren't you?

Yes..
Or something like it

I'll just have to admit it

And I always thought
I looked like a reporter, too

And you're really
looking for my uncle, then?

Not exactly..
I'm sorry Miss Sanders

Your uncle is dead

He was killed under very
mysterious circumstances

It was his head found at Esher, then.

And The Executioner killed him

How do you know that?

It wasn't in the papers
- I knew from the description

Even though,
they didn't give his name

Do you suspect anybody?
- Yes and no..

But, I�II soon know more
- I must go and see Mr Jackson

Good luck
- Thank you

Ahh,Mr Voss

Now, what did you find out?

I can't find an entry for this script
- Oh,how's that?

Maybe it's from an old script
belonging to the former owner

He bought the firm only 2 years ago

Oh,or maybe they forgot
to make an entry for it

Not likely, I make
all the entries myself

I don't even remember
a script like that

And here is the page,
you were so worried about

I'll go now, if you don't mind

Good night, my dear
Good night

Good night
- Oh,tell me..

Where do you film tomorrow?
- Not far from Gryff Tower

Ahh,Gryff Tower, that belongs to
Sir Gregory Penn, doesn�t it?

Yes it does

Rather strange things
are said about him

People talk a lot..
Goodnight

Smile please..

There he is..
Sir Gregory Penn

Thank you..

Oh,I hate that castle, with all of
it's awful stuffed tigers

And it's horrible looking swords
- Swords?

Yes, a whole lot of
Asiatic swords on the walls

He showed them to us
when we went to tea, last time

And he certainly
knows how to use them

In one blow, he cut an apple in two,
while it was hanging in the air

Wonderful..
- Yes..

And you were very impressed, right?

He's disgusting!

He thinks he can buy anything,
with his money

Miss Sanders..
- Yes?

We're ready for you
- Pardon me..

Certainly

Oh Miss Sanders..

And how are you, young lady?
- Thank you, fine..

No stage fright?
- No..

You didn't keep
your promise, yesterday

No, you�re wrong..

You invited me for dinner..
But I didn't accept..

Perhaps I'll be luckier next time,eh?

Odd person..

Everything alright?
- Yes, I hope so..

Now, in place, off you go..

Ok everyone, listen to me..

Extras..

Well, are you also an actor?

No, not me, and you?

I'm Sir Gregory Penn!
- How do you do.. Brixan..

I saw you talking to the young lady
Do you know her well?

I don't know what you mean, by well..

We're good friends, if you mean that

Ahh,I'm delighted, a nice girl..

Perhaps you could both
come to dinner,Mr...

Brixan..
Yes, I�d like that..

Provided of course, that Miss Sanders,
also likes the idea

Fine,Mr Brixan

Yes, I�ve always wanted
to visit the castle

In particular, to see your
famous collection of weapons

It would be a pleasure

If you have the time, we could
look at them right now

Yes, please..

Miss Sanders is a very
lovely young lady

I've know many beautiful women,
but she's very special

Yes, I believe you

Everyone ready?
- Attention..

How do you like this one?

Here, look at this..

Carefull,don't touch it!

The edge is so sharp,
you could split a hair with it

Or, cut off a man's head,
with one stroke

May I?
- Please..

My goodness, those boys must
have been in great shape,eh?

Do you chop wood with it?

Tell me, isn�t that sword a samurai,
or something like that?

No..
It comes from Borneo

Oh,Borneo

That's the land of the head-hunters..

No, it comes from North Borneo
Whisky?

Yes please..

I had to shoot the man that owned it

There was no other way out
It was him, or me

Every year, I go to Africa, or India

I keep my yacht at Southampton
always ready to sail

Here, I�d die of boredom..
Soda?

No no..

Nothing ever happens here,
no interesting neighbours

The closest neighbour,
is that old fool Longvale

He's always running around
in his grandfathers underwear

I've been told, he�s a very
interesting old gentleman

A matter of opinion..

Now, here�s something..

The best servant in the world

He doesn't think.. or ask.. or answer..

Bhag,come here..

Come and meet a friend of mine
Come..

Shake Mr Brixans hand

Bhag,get me a cigarette

How strange, he�s like an animal
- Yes.. almost..

When he was a child,

he wandered away from his village,
and was lost in the jungle

He grew up in the Belgian Congo,

hunted and shot like an animal,
by people afraid of him

So he's afraid of guns

I took care of him, and brought him here
But he's never spoken

But, don�t you
have trouble with him?

I mean, with your staff,
or the neighbours?

This is a civilised country
- No, never..

He obeys me,
and I can trust him completely

He would lay down his life for me

Tell me, why did he sniff at my hand,
after you introduced us?

I said you were a friend of mine

So now he will recall you,
by the way you smell

Ah.. so now I'm
filed under T, like tobacco

Bhag,a cigarette for Mr Brixan..

Go on..
- Thank you..

Very good..

Why don�t I have
a few more close ups?

What do you think
my fans are going to say?

After all, I am the lead,
the star, am I not?

The film is the main thing
- What about..

Remember, Stella Mendoza is out,

because she thought she was
more important than the film

Be a good boy,
or you may be leaving too

What would you say
to your fans then,eh?

Hello..

Miss Sanders, are you ready?

I'm coming Mr Jackson..
- Are You coming tonight?

Your friend said he would bring you over
- My friend?

Mr Brixan,nice fellow

So you're coming?
- I'm sorry, I cant

Why not?
Don�t be so hasty,

it could be a lovely evening for you

Please, don�t expect me to come tonight

Not tonight,
nor, any other night

Miss Sanders, did you...

See you tonight

Ahh,the detective..

Still on the trail of that lost script?

You're bubbling over with wit, today

You should really start writing comedy

If you'll play the lead for me

What did Sir Gregory
put in his pocket?

What do you mean?
- Mr Voss, I warn you

I just saw Sir Gregory put
those gloves in his pocket

I wont stand for this,Mr Brixan!
I didn't see anything!

And even if I did, I wouldn't feel compelled
to tell you anything about it

Maybe you will someday

The day after tomorrow,
we do the tower scenes

Tomorrow, we do the
scenes outside Longvale

We'll set up here,
to get the tower in full view

Ah,here..

I'm so very pleased
you've come,Mr Jackson

Please, make yourselves comfortable

I have prepared tea
and biscuits, for you

We don�t want to cause you
any trouble,Mr Longvale

May I introduce Mr Brixan to you

I'm pleased to meet you..
- How do you do..

Are you in the film too?
- No no no..

I'm afraid I have no
talent for acting, at all..

I'm only an observer

Well, I hope you'll come in for tea
- I'd be delighted

Come then gentlemen,
we don�t want cold tea

Right, you go on, I�II be right over

Mr Brixan..
- Thank you

Alright everybody,
move it move it move it!

Thank you

As you can see,Mr Brixan,
I live plainly

I have no servants

May I pour you a cup of tea?
- Oh,yes please

Do you prefer milk or lemon?
- Lemon please,

and 2 spoons of sugar..
- Yes..

A familiar face,
I'm sure I've seen it before

Yes, that�s possible..
- Then it's a reproduction?

It's my great grand uncle,
Charles Henry..

In our family, he was always called,
Le Grand monsieur..

Here's your tea..

It's very hot today,

I do look forward to a
cup of your tea,Mr Longvale

Of course..
Milk or lemon?

Thank you, just plain..
- same as me

Biscuits, gentlemen?
- No thank you

There..
- Thank you..

You're lucky with the
weather,Mr Jackson,eh?

Yes, I hope it stays this way

It's a lovely day..
look at that..

There..

It looks like an animal,
and yet it walks upright

Guess what it is..

A servant, kept by Sir Gregory

A savage, with the mind of a child
It doesn't harm anybody

Of course, I wouldn't want
to run into him, all alone

He could snap your neck in a minute

Oh no no no..
I have my own black servant

Help help!

Are you alright?

I must have missed him

I had to be careful,
so as not to hit you

What's all the shooting
in the middle of the night?

I'm sorry, I couldn't wait till morning

Please come down stairs

Ruth, what�s that white circle
on your window pane?

I don't know..

It's a piece of paper
stuck on the outside

Now, will you please tell me
who you were shooting at?

Of course I can..

Sir Gregory's servant, was just trying
to kidnap your leading lady

Now, you don't seriously
think he'd try that?

How do we know he was after her?
He doesn't even know Ruth Sanders

I don�t know, but he found her

That's quite a wild story
- Oh?

And that circle up there..
What about that?

Well, what about it?
- Well don't you see that..

Aha.. Mr Voss

Excuse me, I must talk to him alone

A very quiet hotel, isn�t it?

Good morning,Mr Voss

I'm sorry I disturbed your sleep

but now perhaps you'll
tell me, what you were

discussing with
Sir Gregory, yesterday?

That's my business
- Not anymore!

Because, I want to find out,
who, put that white circle

on the window of
Miss Sanders room

You're the detective,
where do I come into it?

Mr Jackson, do I have to stay here
and be insulted by this fellow?

You're not very clever,Mr Voss!

I saw you stick that paper
up there yesterday, myself

That's a filthy lie!
- Go back to your room

I'll speak to you tomorrow

Did you really see him with
that piece of paper, yesterday?

Of course not..
I was only bluffing

But now I'm sure..

That Voss did it, and the order
came from Sir Gregory

To show the room to the savage
- Exactly..

I think I better pay
a visit to Sir Gregory

As a matter of fact, right now..

Whose there?
- Brixan..

What do you want?
- I must speak with you

Isn't it a little early?
- The early bird catches the worm..

Now come on!

Do you want a whisky?

No thank you..
I've had breakfast

Is your valet outside?
- I think so, do you want to see him?

Not necessary,
I saw him during the night

Saw him?
Where?

In the backyard of the hotel

As he tried to climb into the
window of Miss Sanders bedroom

He nearly got a few
bullets, for his trouble

You mean, you shot at him?
- Yes

You shouldn't have done that
The man's completely harmless

That's not the impression he gave, trying
to climb into miss Sanders bedroom

Did he go as far as that?
- Yes

I'll tell you what, Sir Gregory..
You sent him for that girl

And further more,
you bribed Mr Voss

to put a mark on her window,
for the negro

And I also understand why you
took Miss Sanders gloves with you

It was so that animal from
the jungle, could smell her out

So he could recognise her

Why are you so excited?
I thought we were friends

That's your overworked imagination

But I'll tell you one thing..

And make sure you understand

If you or that demented
creature harm that girl

I'll make you very sorry
for the rest of your life

Is that clear?

So..

And now I'd like to know
who was screaming just now

And especially, why?

How dare you come into my house

Asking impertinent questions

Perhaps you can understand this

you're a detective?
- Yes..

What do you want here?
- Someone screamed, here..

Who was it?

One of the maids here

A Malayan, mentally sick

Very disturbed,
completely unrestrained

Is it necessary for us to..
- Please!

I'll be right back

What's going on?
Who's been shooting?

I was..

Are you always in the habit of
locking up your guests in the dark?

There's a defect in the alarm system
- Yeah?

Do you mind?

By the way, your servant
should consider himself lucky,

that I aimed at the shutters,
and didn't put a few shots into him

Where is he?
- I told you, he�s afraid of guns

Now, can I see the unrestrained
lady who was screaming?

I'm very fond of unrestrained ladies

She feels much better now
She was having, a kind of nightmare

I'm a great comfort to people
having nightmares. Now come along..

No!
You cant give orders here

And you came into my house,
firing a gun

There's a good echo here
- You'll pay the damages

I shall inform your department about you
Your great zeal, will cost you your job

I hope not..

Alright,I cant insist on having
a good look around here,

Because I don�t have
a search warrant

But I'll bring one next time

Good morning
- Good morning

Mr Jackson..
- Yes?

Can I speak to you for a moment?

Get everything ready,
- Ok..

well?

My behaviour the day before
yesterday, I�m sorry for it

Cant we forget all about it?

Because of you, I had
to re-cast the film, Stella

Oh,then I can do my role
- Yes, but not with me

I'll tell you something, Jackson
- good morning

You want to point out to me,
that I'm only the director of the film

And the people who really count,
are the shareholders

And they cast a long shadow
Am I right?

Well I'll tell you something,
Miss Mendoza

Certain shareholders may,
be interested in you

But those gentlemen are more interested
in films that make money

As for me,
I wish to play with Miss Mendoza

I find it difficult
to play with a beginner

This Miss Sanders,
has no experience what so ever

And anyway, I feel I will have to resign,
if Miss Mendoza doesn't play the part

The cast remains as it is
- Just a minute, Jackson..

And you, you teenage clown, you..

You listen to me, if you dare
withdraw from this film

No film company will ever hire you

Because I will personally make
a mess of your pretty profile

Jackson!
- Reggie!

What is it?
- Wait for me

Do you want to rehearse it again?
- Oh yes

May I come in?
- yes, certainly

please remain seated

So you're the little girl who
understudied for me?

It was very kind of you
- Understudy?

Yes, I heard from Mr Jackson
that you agreed to double for me

In scenes where I had no close up
- Oh,but you're mistaken

My scenes that were done yesterday,
were all close ups

Typical of Jackson

He must have been cross with me

Well,tomorrow,I will start
playing the lead again

But I..
That's impossible

It's like that in films

I was told this morning, to be ready
to start shooting tomorrow

I feel,however,Responsible
for your disappointment

I could help you a little bit
- What do you mean?

Well I thought you could use
a little extra money

Do you think I would give up
my first role without a fight?

I'll speak to Mr Jackson about it

Are you calling me a liar?

I'm not calling you anything

Would you mind
leaving my room, at once..

You'll be sorry, Miss Sanders

You wanted to speak to me,
Mr Jackson?

According to our contract,
we owe you one months salary

Frankie..
- Here it is..

Do you mean that you're firing me?

That's right..

I can get along without a person
who helps to kidnap an actress of mine

Why that's ridiculous!

You read too many
mystery stories,Mr Jackson

Let me give you a piece of advice
- I don't need your advice!

Give all your scripts to Mr Dekker,

and get out of my sight

Do you hear?

You can only start a new company
with money, Miss Mendoza

I have friends I can ask for money
They've already promised me some

If I want to start a picture,

well they've made
certain conditions

I don�t like

Then don't exert yourself,
I can get the money

I know someone..
- You?

Why did you wait till now,
Mr Voss?

Up till now, I had no influence
on that person

But now I think I can get all the money
you need, Miss Mendoza

Well then, in that case
You can direct the movie

That's what you've always
wanted isn't it,Mr Voss?

Yes..
I've wanted that..

But now I would like to make some
supplementary conditions, of lets say

Personal character..

Well..

I suggest that our firm be called
"Stella Mendoza Film Productions"

That's fine for you Stella
But what becomes of me?

Don't worry Connolly

The company will not feature
Miss Mendoza�s name, but will carry mine

"Lorenz Voss Films"

And if we can get along
well enough together

Maybe later on, who knows
The name can be changed to

"Voss Mendoza Film Company"

Tell me, what do you
know about Brixan?

He's a detective
- What does he want here?

He's fishing
around for something

But it will be difficult for him
to find out anything

The only one that could help him,
is me

But...
I'll keep my mouth shut

For the sake of our film company

Good evening, gentlemen
good evening

what's happened?

Yes, I wanted you to come here,
to see something rather unusual

Let's sit down
- Thank you

Ready Wilson?
- Go on Frankie..

Watch this shot

We took a skyline shot
of the castle, at twilight

Watch the attic window
on the right

Well, notice anything there?
- Something was moving, but..

I cant tell what it is
- Cut!

Frankie..
Ok,now I'll show you something

Look at the window

Through the magnifying glass

Here..
- May I?

The face of a woman

Did you see the face
when you shot the scene?

To tell you the truth, no..

But when I brought
the window into focus,

I should have seen it
in the view finder

What do you make
of this mystery,Brixan?

It's my idea, Sir Gregory
has a woman locked up in there

Probably, the same woman
I heard screaming

Actually, with what�s
going on in that house

It wouldn't surprise me, if you told me
Sir Gregory was The Executi...

Gentlemen, would you leave
us alone for a moment please?

That was very
careless of you, Jackson

Sorry, but as long as I don�t know
where that script page comes from

I must suspect every one of you
of having contact with The Executioner

Or even that one of you,
is himself, The Executioner

Though that is rather unlikely

Good evening,Dekker
- Good evening..

You have the changes?

Yes, here they are
- Thank you

I must tell you
something important

Can I talk to you privately?
It concerns Mr Voss

Brixan Is alright

Mr Dekker is our new
script reader,Mr Brixan

Shall we sit down over there?
- Yes..

Oh Miss, would you leave us
alone for a moment?

Mr Dekker was assistant to Mr Voss

I've heard that Mr Voss, was trying
to find the original manuscript for a film

Yes, that�s right
Did you find anything?

Yes,here,in this entry book

On the left, you can read the
titles of the film scripts sent in

And the names of the authors,
addresses..

date when the script reached us
And the date when we sent it back

Does it ever happen, that sometimes
a script is not entered here?

Impossible, I make
all the entries myself

Even when I was
assistant to Mr Voss

The script you are looking for,
was registered by me,

in due order,2 years ago

The entry was set down in this book
On the very first page

Someone has crossed out
the name and address of the author

with a big black ink line

What?
- May I see that?

Of course

I'm sorry, but I must find out
what's written under that black ink

Oh,are you able too?
- Well, I hope so

Thank you,Mr Dekker
- Not at all..

See you later..
- Yes, thank you

Well, if I can find out
what's written here

And who scratched it out

I'll know who The Executioner is

Would you call Mr Voss?
- I'm sorry, he�s gone out

When was that?

I'm not sure,
but at least 4 hours ago

4 hours..

Then I wish to place
a rush call to London

Foreign office
- Foreign office..

Yes yes,alright
Yes, you can have it

You'll be sent a warrant
for the arrest of Lorenz Voss

The entry page will be
sent to the lab immediately

By the way
Something much more important

We followed up all the
clues on the advertisements

They were all handed
in by an old woman

who also picked up the answers

We have a close watch on her
Well, that�s it

You have succeeded
in disturbing my sleep

for the rest of the night,
thank you very much

Listen. oh,sorry to disturb you

Find as many books as you can

On executioners and execution methods,
with illustrations

Send them to Brixan by airmail

I've lost my gun!

You're a pretty sight
this early in the morning

I can tell you right now..
It's no longer morning

It's 3 in the afternoon..

Are you waiting for The Executioner?
- Yes..

He comes by this time every day
- That's great..

Here's the stuff on The Executioners

The document from the record book,

is being processed in the lab,
and will be here later today

We also wanted to question
the old woman

who picks up the replies
to the advertisements

And?
- She's been found

,thank god

And you woke me out of a deep sleep,
just to tell me that?

My dear Brixan,
perhaps this will interest you

This morning,
another box was found

Where?
- In a field, in Leatherhead

Is it far from here?
- Yes..

The victim hasn't been identified yet

Now come on, hurry up!
We must get over there

Yes..
- We'll have a look at it.

Lorenz Voss..

The man we had the warrant out for
- yes..

This note was in the box

Same as usual
Only the wording is different

This is the head of a traitor

This means...
That Voss, knew The Executioner

What do you want now?

You aren't very friendly,
Sir Gregory

I only want to ask what
happened to Mr Voss, your friend

To whom?

To Mr Voss, the man to whom
you were so friendly

The script editor?
- That's him

How would I know that?

When did you last see him?

Sir Gregory, I warn you..
I have the authority

to use anything you say,
against you

There's no big secret

He needed money, he asked me
for 50 pounds, so I gave it to him

I gave him the money,
and I haven't seen him since

Good morning,Mr Brixan

Sir Gregory..

Would it surprise you to know,
this morning his head

was found near leatherhead?

Again, The Executioner

That's none of my business

I haven't seen him since I told you
- Really?

If you can find a witness who saw
me with him, then you can arrest me,

until then, goodbye Mr Brixan
- Wait, Sir Gregory, wait for me

I'll come with you..

What happened
to that girl up there?

If you're talking about the maid,
she's not here anymore

So, then you'll have no objection
if I look around myself?

Here is a search warrant

Listen Brixan,
what do you want from me?

You behave as though, I killed Voss,
with one of my swords

Yes..
Go on, don�t stop now..

A very interesting story

Don�t try to be smart

You know very well,
I had nothing to do with it

And how would I know that?

Taking your physical strength into account,
you'd be able to do it

Considering physical strength,
what about my valet?

He could handle such a sword with 1 hand
While I'd need 2

That's funny,
I never thought of that

Well, come on...

What's that?

I was sure I'd seen it before

But I'm also sure,
I've never seen you with it

Of course, Lorenz Voss

Why is his hat here?

Oh yes, you�re right
You master detective,

it belonged to Lorenz Voss

He must have forgotten it
when he got the 50 pounds

And now, do you
want to handcuff me?

No no no,
all in the proper time

I want to have a look
at the girl upstairs

Here, this is the room

Oh no, not this one..
That one..

Why don�t you believe me,
Mr Brixan?

I know my house
better than you do

I guess you haven't been
up here for some time

it's locked, and I don�t have a key
- It's alright,I have my own

Well, what a mess
- Yes..

She must have left in a great hurry

Where is she?
What have you done with her?

Don�t make a fool of yourself,Brixan
No one has been killed in here

She must have escaped
- Oh escaped?

Didn't she stay here
of her own free will?

I brought her back from a trip
She was keen to come

Once here, she lost interest in me

I can believe that alright
- Now she's escaped

Oh don�t give me that!
- It's the truth

Well, we�II see

Stupid girl!

Good morning
- Good morning Stella

You're up early

Did he make you angry?
- I cant stand the sight of him

He's always snooping around here

Trying to get something on me

why did you lock up
the Malayan girl?

With your money,
you can get dozens of women

Yes, but she was something special

I'd like to take another trip
- With me?

No my dear, you�ve
already cost me enough

You'd prefer to take along..

your queen of hearts, darling
The pretty little extra

But obviously,Mr Brixan has
better luck with her, than you do

You're jealous, because she�s
taken the film from you

And you want her
in my place, here

But you haven't been
very successful

What will you bet?
I'll have her here tonight

That I've got to see
- You will see it!

You cant help your situation
by not speaking

Is there nothing you have to say?

Well, as you like..

It can only be Indonesia
Yes?

Oh there you are
Hello Jackson

Brixan,look at them

They were arrested near
Gryff tower tonight

They haven't spoken a word

I know her

I've been looking
very hard for you, all day

I'm glad you're safe

Who have we here?

Ah yes, the young man
who so kindly saved my life

You're a very brave young man
Thank you

How did you get to Gryff Tower?

Very interesting story..
I don�t understand a word

She says she comes from Indonesia

Sir Gregory persuaded her

To run away from home,
and come here with him

When she wanted to return,
he kept her a prisoner

Now she hates the sight of him

I can understand that

And, I shall promise her she'll never
have to go back to the castle

And who is the young man?
What's he got to do with it?

The young man is her brother
He freed her

I see..
Inspector, let them go..

Here you are sir
- Thank you Thompson

Come here Brixan
The report from the laboratory

There..
What did I say?

I was right!

I'd never have thought of him

Oh yes, that�s going
to cause a sensation

when the press finds out
The Executioner is..

Oh Mr Jackson, excuse me..
I'd forgotten you were still here

But you will understand, that what we
have learned tonight, must be kept secret

A pity, I�m very anxious to know
who The Executioner is

I'll have to be patient,
just when it's getting interesting

Alright,I'll wait downstairs

Brixan..

The head of an old woman,
has just been found in London

It seems to be the work,
of our old friend, The Executioner

Now there are no witnesses
to testify against him

Major, can we wait a few
hours before we arrest him?

Why? so he can escape?
- Oh no no no..

So he can be convicted..

I'm positive that we wont find anything
that even looks like evidence

Such as, the typewriter,
by searching his house

I need some more time,
to work out a plan,

of all the old secret tunnels,
and unused caves, around here

What have they got to do with it?
- You know Major..

It's always puzzled me, the murderer
could come and go, without ever being seen

And how he could keep his car
so well hidden, we never saw a trace of it

Then I found out, there are

a lot of old tunnels and caves

That had either been forgotten,
or filled in

Miss Sanders,
Mr Jackson has sent a car for you

You're wanted at
Mr Longvales house, at once

A conference about the film
- So late?

Yes, it seems it's very important
- Just a moment

Here you are
- Thank you

Oh,my scarf

Oh Mrs Martin, I�ve forgotten my script
Perhaps I should take it?

Where is it?
- Under my pillow

Please, give it to someone who'll be
coming along to the conference

Yes, of course
- Thank you

You're sure you know he way to go?

But this is not the right way

Don�t you know where it is?
- I do

You!
Stop the car at once!

You've refused my invitations
too many times

So I thought of this little trick
to get you out here

I warn you!
Drive me back to my hotel at once

I wouldn't dream of it
We'll have dinner together, that�s all

I've even invited a chaperone
The lovely Stella Mendoza,

she'll drive you home

If you don�t stop,
I'll scream for help

Go ahead, no-one will hear you

Stop that nonsense,
I don�t want to have an accident

We're here, my dear..

There you are, Stella
Our little guest of honour

take care of her for a few minutes
I must get rid of this

Please..
Help me..

I don�t want to stay here
He'll be back here any minute

Were you sorry for me, when you
took over my part in the film?

Well, it was your big chance

You'll have to deal with Gregory,
as best you can

There is something,
that I can do for you

It's loaded, this is the safety catch,
you have to press it before shooting

No no, I cant do that
- It's better than nothing

He's coming!

I don�t know why I'm doing
all this for you, Miss Sanders

Because I've never liked you

But I wouldn't want to leave you
with him, completely defenceless

The chaperone I see,
was tactful enough to leave us alone

Don�t you wish to take off
your coat, my dear?

No, leave me alone!
- as you like

I�m afraid you'll find it
very warm in here

That's my concern, not yours

Come, drink..
Drink..

Come, come on..
- No!

Come on, perhaps we can
still get a whisky

Mr Jackson?
- Yes?

I'm so glad I caught you

I thought you were at the
conference with all the rest

Please, would you be so kind,
as to give this script to Miss Sanders

She was in such a hurry to get away,
she forgot it

Conference?
there's no conference after midnight

Goodnight
- Yes, but...

Mrs Martin, what did you say about
a conference, and Miss Sanders?

A chauffeur came, and drove
Miss Sanders to a conference

Why should I ask Ruth to
a conference, at midnight?

What did the driver look like?

It was rather dark,
and I couldn't see him clearly

But he was stout,
with a round face

It sounds a lot like Sir Gregory

You know him, don�t you?
- Yes

Telephone Major Staines,

And tell him to come
to Gryff Tower, at once I'll go there now

Yes..

I want to leave here, immediately!
- As you like..

I shall call my valet,
and he will show you out

Bhag!

I'll go now..

And you're not going to follow me

Come back here

Bhag,turn on the lights

Where is she?
- She's run away

Bhag is after her

If he catches her, I�m finished

Where are you going?
- That's none of your business

I cant wait for the police to come

Because of your numerous affairs?
Or is there something else?

No, but who will believe me?

I'd better disappear, before they arrive

You better come too
- But where?

We'll drive to the ship
Come on, we must get out of here

Blast! It wont start..

Wait, I�II go and get Longvales car

Michael.. Michael..

Where is Sir Gregory?
- Ruth has run away

Sir Gregory has gone over to Longvale
- What? To Longvale?

Help.. help..
- That's Sir Gregory

Wait here until the police arrive

And then tell them where I've gone

Mr Brixan,the law in person,
so early in the morning

Please come in..

What can I do for you?

I'm sorry, but has
Sir Gregory Penn been here?

No, has anything happened to him?

I hope not,
for the sake of all concerned

Do you like my ancestor?
- Yes..

A marvellous head..

The thing I don�t like about him,
was his job

You'd like him,
if you had read his memoirs

A very fascinating book
- No doubt

Mr Longvale,it appears you
admire your uncle, too much

How do you mean that?

Well, you admire him as a great man
A kind of hero

And this leads you
to a form of insanity

Abnormal acts,
no ordinary man would dream of

Do you understand me?
- Completely, completely..

But it is my opinion..

That one cannot do
a greater thing in this world

Than to copy the actions
of ones forefathers, completely

You must see a doctor
You are sick,Mr Longvale,very sick

Sick? never before have
I felt so vigorous

I feel as young, as my
great great uncle,

in his best years

Yes, I believe you

I recognised him,
the minute I saw him

Charles Henry Longvale
The French executioner

Opinions may differ, as to the
greatness of your ancestor

One man, who had
so many people put to death

And himself beheaded,
Marie Antoinette, and Louis XVI

I don�t know what freak of fate
brought your family to England

And why you, Henry Longvale,

had to continue your uncles
inhuman profession

You have beheaded,
poor innocent people

And given yourself the name,
benefactor

Suicide, is an unpardonable thing

And therefore,
I made it my duty to help

those poor devils, who were to cowardly
to put an end to their own lives

So you see, I can say,
that I am a benefactor

What about Lorenz Voss?

He deserved it..
He was a blackmailer..

A gangster,
who tried to blackmail me

He tried to
squeeze money out of me

Because he knew what had been
written on my typewriter, and why..

Where is Sir Gregory Penn?

You wont believe it,
but, I don�t know

Oh?
I don't know!

And this here?
It's not yours, is it?

And what about the
fresh prints on the carpets

And the screams I heard?
Come Mr Longvale..

We'll have a look
around your house

As you like

But if you are going to compel me
to give up this work

You will deprive mankind of a service,
that cost me thousands of pounds

But, I wont offer any resistance

Put that bottle down at once!
- Relax, relax..

Wont you take the time
to have a drink with me?

Put that bottle away!

As you wish..

Somebody had a drink, before me

I don�t think he liked
the wine very much

Come on,Mr Longvale..
Come on,Mr Longvale!

Coming..
Oh,I'm sorry

What�s going on here?

Brixan went to Longvale
And he said for you to come

Over there?
- Yes..

To Longvale..

Sir Gregory..

Brixan..

Where are we?
How did we get here?

We're in the catacombs,
under Longvale

Did he..
Did he give you something to drink?

Yes..

As soon as I saw
I had been drugged,

I ran away, and called for help

But it was too late

After that..,
I don�t remember anything

Try to open my handcuffs

It's impossible!
- Try again!

What's he going to do with us?

I have my own theory
If I'm right, then..

Your theory is right, captain Brixan

It was called "The Widow"

Who wants to be the next one?

You..
You deserve it..

Because of your
disgusting love affairs

Longvale,Longvale,no.. no.

Hurry hurry, I�II go first

Come along!
- Yes,alright

The door's locked!
Try to force it!

Ruth!
- Michael!

Ruth, shoot!
Shoot, quickly!

Try it again!

Like my uncle, Charles Henry,

I have the honour, of beheading a lady

Come on my dear
Ladies first..

No no
- Come on

Longvale!
- Michael!

Bhag..
Bhag!

Over there..

Open the handcuffs..

Get something to cover this

Hurry up!

Here, give me that!

These catacombs, belong to
the older part of Gryff Tower

They are hundreds of metres long

Yes, but nobody knew they lead right
to the house of Longvale,and the murderer

No wonder he was able
to come and go..

Just as he pleased,
and never be seen by anyone

And what about Sir Gregory?

Oh,I think he's suffered enough
for his stupid behaviour

As for the Malaysian, there is no case
She didn't report to the police

And the guillotine,
goes into the police museum

And the poor devils
who expect help from it

now will look in vain, for an ad,
placed by the benefactor

Why did he pack the heads so carefully,
and then, throw them away?

As evidence, very probably,
he wanted the families of the victims

to receive the insurance

He felt like a benefactor..

Wait for my signal..

What about the sun?

Hello Captain Brixan..

Hello Frankie, how are you
- Thanks, I�m fine

Back again?
- Yes, but what's going on here?

I thought the film was finished
- This is the last shooting day

Ah,I see
And where is Miss Sanders?

Over there, behind those trees
- Thanks Frankie

Michael..
- May I?

Of course..
- May I have your autograph now?

Thank you
Yes..

But I only hope you
aren't here to arrest someone

I am..
- You are?

Really?

But I'm not supposed to say whom..
Otherwise, the person would be warned

Camera ready..
- well then, let�s start

What the devils going on there?
Who's disturbing the take?

It's alright,
you're not disturbing anyone..
