What time did you find
the body, Mr. O'Shea?
19
00:02:51,121 --> 00:02:55,423
About six in the morning,
as I was finishing my rounds.
20
00:02:55,457 --> 00:02:58,159
Did any of you gentlemen see anything?
21
00:02:58,193 --> 00:03:02,263
They saw anything, they'd
speak up. Am I right, lads?
22
00:03:02,297 --> 00:03:04,265
- Sir.
- What have you, George?
23
00:03:04,299 --> 00:03:07,035
I believe our victim is
this man, Nathan Peters.
24
00:03:07,069 --> 00:03:10,204
He's the founder of the Canadian
Jubilee Singers and Imperial Orchestra.
25
00:03:10,239 --> 00:03:12,907
His wife reported him missing this morning.
26
00:03:12,941 --> 00:03:14,909
They're currently performing, sir,
27
00:03:14,943 --> 00:03:17,445
at the Grand Theatre. Quite
a popular act, most famous
28
00:03:17,479 --> 00:03:20,915
for their renditions of
traditional plantation songs.
29
00:03:20,949 --> 00:03:23,384
Mr. Peters' wallet is missing.
30
00:03:23,419 --> 00:03:26,720
- Robbery gone wrong.
- What was a respectable
31
00:03:26,755 --> 00:03:29,023
man doing down at the docks
in the middle of the night?
32
00:03:29,057 --> 00:03:30,524
Respectable Negro.
33
00:03:30,559 --> 00:03:32,927
That's the laugh of the morning, eh, boys?
34
00:03:32,961 --> 00:03:34,929
A man's been murdered, Mr. O'Shea.
35
00:03:34,963 --> 00:03:37,264
You seem to have an opinion about that.
36
00:03:37,298 --> 00:03:41,535
Just saying that a man need know his place.
37
00:03:41,770 --> 00:03:46,139
If you have something
useful to say, say it.
38
00:03:46,259 --> 00:03:48,260
Otherwise be quiet.
39
00:03:55,000 --> 00:03:57,435
Pleasant bunch.
40
00:03:57,470 --> 00:04:00,404
Hm. Pleasant enough to kill.
41
00:04:08,488 --> 00:04:11,656
A renowned Negro band leader
killed at the dock lands?
42
00:04:11,691 --> 00:04:14,225
Not a very good advertisement
for Toronto the Good.
43
00:04:14,260 --> 00:04:15,727
You made any headway?
44
00:04:15,762 --> 00:04:18,530
The dock workers were
not exactly forthcoming.
45
00:04:18,564 --> 00:04:20,031
That lot stick together.
46
00:04:20,065 --> 00:04:22,033
You'll be lucky if you
get anything out of them.
47
00:04:22,067 --> 00:04:25,182
Gentlemen. Am I interrupting?
48
00:04:25,190 --> 00:04:27,471
- Good morning, Doctor.
- Inspector.
49
00:04:27,506 --> 00:04:29,473
I'll leave you to it, Murdoch.
50
00:04:29,508 --> 00:04:31,009
Keep me posted.
51
00:04:33,012 --> 00:04:34,379
Julia.
52
00:04:34,413 --> 00:04:37,448
- How are you?
- I'm well.
53
00:04:37,482 --> 00:04:40,317
I'm very well, actually.
54
00:04:40,351 --> 00:04:42,820
- I can't believe that it's...
- Over?
55
00:04:42,854 --> 00:04:46,189
I know. But it is.
56
00:04:46,224 --> 00:04:49,527
- James Gillies is really dead.
- You were right...
57
00:04:49,561 --> 00:04:52,095
no one could have survived
the fall from the bridge,
58
00:04:52,130 --> 00:04:54,197
that river. Not handcuffed.
59
00:04:54,232 --> 00:04:56,099
I hardly dare to think it.
60
00:04:56,134 --> 00:04:57,901
We're free of him.
61
00:04:57,936 --> 00:05:01,771
Then I shall enjoy this
feeling of well-being.
62
00:05:01,806 --> 00:05:03,273
You must.
63
00:05:03,308 --> 00:05:05,208
It suits you.
64
00:05:08,379 --> 00:05:10,347
Sorry, sir.
65
00:05:10,381 --> 00:05:12,181
Mrs. Peters is at the morgue.
66
00:05:12,215 --> 00:05:13,817
Thank you, George.
67
00:05:13,851 --> 00:05:15,819
I'm on my way.
68
00:05:18,121 --> 00:05:20,089
Ozzy Hughes, Detective.
69
00:05:20,123 --> 00:05:23,626
Mr. Hughes. Mrs. Peters,
thank you for coming.
70
00:05:28,631 --> 00:05:31,100
I can do this for you, Chloe.
71
00:05:31,134 --> 00:05:32,969
It is my duty, Ozzy.
72
00:05:44,181 --> 00:05:47,082
Oh...
73
00:05:47,116 --> 00:05:48,617
No.
74
00:05:48,651 --> 00:05:52,287
Mrs. Peters, is this your husband?
75
00:05:54,290 --> 00:05:57,158
This is him.
76
00:05:57,193 --> 00:06:01,029
Who would do this terrible...
77
00:06:01,063 --> 00:06:03,465
I am so very sorry.
78
00:06:03,499 --> 00:06:06,234
Nathan is a good man.
79
00:06:06,268 --> 00:06:08,336
He's a God-fearing Christian, sir.
80
00:06:08,371 --> 00:06:10,905
He deserves to be treated as such. Not...
81
00:06:10,939 --> 00:06:12,407
Why here, Detective?
82
00:06:12,441 --> 00:06:16,411
We've avoided trouble in far
more dangerous places than this.
83
00:06:16,445 --> 00:06:18,412
I'll get to work straight-away.
84
00:06:18,446 --> 00:06:20,948
If you could escort Mrs.
Peters back to the theatre,
85
00:06:20,983 --> 00:06:25,019
- I'll join you shortly.
- Of course. Anything we can do.
86
00:06:28,289 --> 00:06:29,924
Poor woman.
87
00:06:29,958 --> 00:06:33,761
Not a part of my job that I relish.
88
00:06:33,795 --> 00:06:36,263
Have you a time of death, Doctor?
89
00:06:36,297 --> 00:06:38,765
Based on Mr. Peters' body temperature,
90
00:06:38,799 --> 00:06:42,136
- he died between 1 and 3am.
- And the cause?
91
00:06:42,170 --> 00:06:45,439
There was dried blood around
a wound on his left temple.
92
00:06:45,473 --> 00:06:47,741
Not much blood loss; however,
93
00:06:47,775 --> 00:06:50,511
the impact led to subdural
bleeding in his temporal lobe.
94
00:06:50,545 --> 00:06:52,012
That's what killed him.
95
00:06:52,046 --> 00:06:54,781
The wound has a distinctive mark.
96
00:06:54,815 --> 00:06:57,050
An inch and a quarter across,
97
00:06:57,084 --> 00:07:00,554
crescent shaped. Perhaps
the edge of something?
98
00:07:02,557 --> 00:07:04,057
Thank you, Doctor.

That's Nathan's favourite song.
109
00:08:01,614 --> 00:08:03,471
He was listening, I have no doubt.
110
00:08:04,087 --> 00:08:07,218
Should we not cancel the
show tonight, Mrs. Peters?
111
00:08:07,252 --> 00:08:08,839
We'll perform in his memory.
112
00:08:09,420 --> 00:08:12,123
Ozzy, will you sing the
basso solo in his place?
113
00:08:12,157 --> 00:08:13,624
I'll do my best.
114
00:08:13,658 --> 00:08:16,293
Let's hop to it. We'll run "Sweet Chariot."
115
00:08:16,328 --> 00:08:18,629
Land sakes, do we have to?
116
00:08:18,663 --> 00:08:20,631
I know that old song in my sleep.
117
00:08:20,665 --> 00:08:23,167
Just once through, Hattie.
118
00:08:27,472 --> 00:08:28,939
Detective.
119
00:08:28,973 --> 00:08:32,575
Mr. Hughes. Mrs. Peters.
120
00:08:32,610 --> 00:08:35,245
Please excuse the interruption.
121
00:08:35,279 --> 00:08:36,980
Mrs. Peters,
122
00:08:37,015 --> 00:08:39,616
do you have any idea what
your husband was doing
123
00:08:39,651 --> 00:08:41,618
down at the dock area last night?
124
00:08:41,653 --> 00:08:43,620
I don't know.
125
00:08:43,655 --> 00:08:45,388
He was always so careful.
126
00:08:45,422 --> 00:08:48,224
Was he in the habit of staying out late?
127
00:08:48,259 --> 00:08:51,961
No. Nathan was very
particular about his time.
128
00:08:51,995 --> 00:08:55,598
He was always at the hotel before
the doors were locked at night.
129
00:08:55,633 --> 00:08:57,099
What time was this?
130
00:08:57,134 --> 00:08:58,968
Midnight. To get in or out
131
00:08:59,002 --> 00:09:01,171
after that require the
services of the clerk.
132
00:09:01,205 --> 00:09:03,572
- You can check with him.
- When he wasn't back by morning,
133
00:09:03,606 --> 00:09:05,941
I knew there was something wrong.
134
00:09:05,976 --> 00:09:08,911
Did you find his trumpet, Detective?
135
00:09:08,945 --> 00:09:12,982
No, no, we didn't, Mrs. Peters.
136
00:09:13,016 --> 00:09:16,185
His death was a senseless act of hatred.
137
00:09:16,219 --> 00:09:19,121
Hush now, Chloe.
138
00:09:19,156 --> 00:09:22,191
Please find who did this, Detective.
139
00:09:22,225 --> 00:09:24,493
I intend to.
140
00:09:32,602 --> 00:09:34,236
And you are?
141
00:09:34,270 --> 00:09:35,804
Buddy Duncan.
142
00:09:35,838 --> 00:09:40,541
Mr. Duncan. Do you have any
idea what Mr. Peters was doing...
143
00:09:40,576 --> 00:09:42,911
- I'm not the man's keeper.
- Hey, Buddy, relax.
144
00:09:46,015 --> 00:09:48,817
Mr...
145
00:09:48,851 --> 00:09:50,985
Hardy, Detective. Excuse Buddy.
146
00:09:51,020 --> 00:09:53,987
He's pretty cut up about Nathan,
and he's never his best before three.
147
00:09:54,022 --> 00:09:55,337
Oh, I see.
148
00:09:55,989 --> 00:09:59,727
Mr. Hardy, how long have you been
playing with the Jubilee Singers?
149
00:09:59,761 --> 00:10:01,878
Since the beginning. Been
playing five years now.
150
00:10:01,880 --> 00:10:04,332
We started in gospel halls in Hamilton.
151
00:10:04,366 --> 00:10:05,258
And Mr. Duncan?
152
00:10:06,013 --> 00:10:08,347
Joined the group a year or so ago.
153
00:10:08,382 --> 00:10:11,184
Detective, not to speak ill...
154
00:10:11,218 --> 00:10:13,352
Chloe won't tell you,
155
00:10:13,387 --> 00:10:15,388
but Nathan was fond of a game of dice,
156
00:10:15,422 --> 00:10:18,157
and not particular
about who he played with.
157
00:10:18,192 --> 00:10:19,692
Hm.
158
00:10:27,100 --> 00:10:28,600
Ah.
159
00:10:31,049 --> 00:10:32,515
Constable Crabtree.
160
00:10:32,550 --> 00:10:34,852
Ah, Miss Hamilton. What a... surprise.
161
00:10:34,886 --> 00:10:37,454
- Can I help you?
- I certainly hope so.
162
00:10:37,488 --> 00:10:40,624
The constabulary must shut
that place down immediately.
163
00:10:40,658 --> 00:10:43,660
- What place is this?
- They call it The Blind Pig,
164
00:10:43,694 --> 00:10:46,062
but a den of iniquity is what it is.
165
00:10:46,096 --> 00:10:48,064
They play the devil's music.
166
00:10:48,098 --> 00:10:50,667
And couples dance in
a most unseemly manner.
167
00:10:50,701 --> 00:10:52,167
Unseemly?
168
00:10:52,168 --> 00:10:54,090
I haven't seen it with my
own eyes, thank the Lord,
169
00:10:54,171 --> 00:10:57,407
but I have it on good report
that men and women are...
170
00:10:57,441 --> 00:10:58,841
touching.
171
00:10:58,916 --> 00:11:00,616
In public.
172
00:11:00,650 --> 00:11:02,785
Well, Miss Hamilton, it's
dancing; there's going
173
00:11:02,820 --> 00:11:05,288
- to be some degree of...
- But it's the way they do it.
174
00:11:05,322 --> 00:11:07,323
- I see.
- I hardly dare imagine
175
00:11:07,357 --> 00:11:09,325
what else goes on in that place.
176
00:11:09,359 --> 00:11:11,894
Licentious music breeds all manner of vice.
177
00:11:11,929 --> 00:11:15,263
It must be stopped before
the whole city is infected.
178
00:11:15,298 --> 00:11:17,433
Well, I will consult with the inspector.
179
00:11:17,467 --> 00:11:19,468
Please do that, Constable.
180
00:11:22,839 --> 00:11:26,141
- Licentious music?
- I would like to hear that
181
00:11:26,175 --> 00:11:28,582
before the Temperance
Movement has it silenced.
182
00:11:29,012 --> 00:11:32,013
- Dr. Grace, good afternoon.
- Detective. I have Mr. Peters'
183
00:11:32,048 --> 00:11:34,782
- postmortem results.
- Oh, thank you.
184
00:11:34,817 --> 00:11:36,885
You look very fetching today, Dr. Grace.
185
00:11:36,919 --> 00:11:39,020
- Thank you.
- George,
186
00:11:39,055 --> 00:11:42,657
I need you to check all of
the pawn shops in the area.
187
00:11:42,691 --> 00:11:44,993
See if anyone has brought
in a trumpet recently.
188
00:11:45,027 --> 00:11:47,462
Yes, sir.
189
00:11:47,496 --> 00:11:49,029
Thank you.
190
00:11:51,166 --> 00:11:53,634
And William is quite
sure that Gillies is dead.
191
00:11:53,669 --> 00:11:56,671
So, you and the detective
are free to marry at last.
192
00:11:56,705 --> 00:11:58,272
Dr. Ogden.
193
00:11:58,306 --> 00:12:00,040
Leslie.
194
00:12:00,075 --> 00:12:02,892
- I wasn't expecting you.
- I'm sorry to interrupt.
195
00:12:02,894 --> 00:12:05,612
I'm about to order a mix of shrubs
for the house. Is that all right?
196
00:12:05,646 --> 00:12:07,781
Yes, of course.
197
00:12:07,815 --> 00:12:10,384
We have not been formally introduced.
198
00:12:10,418 --> 00:12:12,619
My apologies. This is Dr. Emily Grace.
199
00:12:12,653 --> 00:12:15,905
- Leslie Garland.
- Leslie is Darcy's brother.
200
00:12:15,923 --> 00:12:18,425
- Pleased to meet you.
- Dr. Grace is the coroner.
201
00:12:18,459 --> 00:12:22,195
What charms must a city morgue hold
to have attracted two such ladies?
202
00:12:22,229 --> 00:12:23,697
Well, you shouldn't think
203
00:12:23,731 --> 00:12:25,999
- of us as macabre, Mr. Garland.
- Ah, far from it.
204
00:12:26,056 --> 00:12:28,725
But I will leave you to your
delightful investigations.
205
00:12:28,759 --> 00:12:31,127
Coaxing the Garland garden
206
00:12:31,161 --> 00:12:34,864
back from the dead. A pleasure, Doctors.
207
00:12:37,034 --> 00:12:39,936
I would not take him for a gardener.
208
00:12:39,970 --> 00:12:42,004
It's just an arrangement
while he's in Toronto.
209
00:12:42,039 --> 00:12:45,541
- So, he's here for some time.
- Yes.
210
00:12:49,479 --> 00:12:52,481
I spoke with the hotel
clerk, and as his wife said,
211
00:12:52,515 --> 00:12:55,116
Mr. Peters was not in the
habit of late-night outings.
212
00:12:55,151 --> 00:12:58,286
So, what was he doing
at the docks last night?
213
00:12:58,321 --> 00:13:02,257
Perhaps the night watchman Mr.
O'Shea knows more than he's telling.
214
00:13:02,291 --> 00:13:04,893
Dockers are not known for
their racial tolerance, Murdoch,
215
00:13:04,928 --> 00:13:06,752
especially Irish dockers.
216
00:13:07,264 --> 00:13:09,631
O'Shea might need a bit of
persuasion to cough something up.
217
00:13:09,666 --> 00:13:11,732
Well sir, if you aren't busy,
218
00:13:11,767 --> 00:13:13,734
I was hoping you might assist me.
219
00:13:13,769 --> 00:13:17,072
Thought you'd never ask, Murdoch.
220
00:13:21,510 --> 00:13:23,911
Constabulary's back.
221
00:13:23,946 --> 00:13:27,748
- Something happen down here?
- You're a funny fella, O'Shea.
222
00:13:27,848 --> 00:13:30,382
About last night.
223
00:13:30,417 --> 00:13:33,786
You see anything unusual?
224
00:13:33,820 --> 00:13:35,287
Yeah.
225
00:13:35,321 --> 00:13:38,223
A Negro looking for trouble
where he don't belong.
226
00:13:38,258 --> 00:13:40,325
Maybe he got what he came for.
227
00:13:47,500 --> 00:13:50,469
Having a sense of humour's
not against the law.
228
00:13:50,503 --> 00:13:52,003
You there.
229
00:13:52,038 --> 00:13:54,540
That cart.
230
00:13:54,644 --> 00:13:57,246
- It wasn't there this morning.
- It was being used.
231
00:13:57,280 --> 00:13:59,181
By working men.
232
00:13:59,215 --> 00:14:01,182
Unloading from the docks over there.
233
00:14:01,216 --> 00:14:03,551
Is it always put away there at night?
234
00:14:03,585 --> 00:14:06,320
Cart activity's a matter
for the constabulary now?
235
00:14:06,355 --> 00:14:07,822
Answer the question.
236
00:14:07,857 --> 00:14:11,459
Yeah, it's left there at night. So what?
237
00:14:11,493 --> 00:14:12,994
Inspector.
238
00:14:15,497 --> 00:14:17,798
I find out you were involved in this,
239
00:14:17,832 --> 00:14:21,302
it won't go well. You mark my words, pal.
240
00:14:28,544 --> 00:14:31,179
Sir. The cart's wheel;
241
00:14:31,213 --> 00:14:35,448
It's made tracks leading
away from the docks.
242
00:14:35,483 --> 00:14:37,484
Let's see where they lead, Murdoch.
243
00:14:52,533 --> 00:14:54,000
They seem to end here
244
00:14:54,034 --> 00:14:56,035
and then turn back.
245
00:15:07,114 --> 00:15:09,015
That's blood.
246
00:15:09,049 --> 00:15:11,584
Maybe this was where Peters was killed.
247
00:15:11,618 --> 00:15:13,086
Possibly.
248
00:15:13,120 --> 00:15:15,354
But then why move the body?
249
00:15:22,629 --> 00:15:24,730

Thank God for that.
263
00:16:07,939 --> 00:16:10,341
Sir, the band. Three of them
264
00:16:10,376 --> 00:16:12,409
are members of the Jubilee Singers.
265
00:16:12,443 --> 00:16:15,712
Well, if that's an uplifting
spiritual, they've bloody murdered it.
266
00:16:15,747 --> 00:16:17,714
You talk to the band, Murdoch;
267
00:16:17,749 --> 00:16:19,716
I'll find out who owns this place.
268
00:16:19,751 --> 00:16:23,387
Hardy, on the next solo I
want to make an adjustment.
269
00:16:23,421 --> 00:16:26,590
- You gotta keep it going at the chorus.
- You come to shut us down?
270
00:16:26,624 --> 00:16:29,426
No, Mr. Duncan.
271
00:16:29,460 --> 00:16:31,895
I must say this music is quite a departure
272
00:16:31,929 --> 00:16:34,464
- from your usual fare.
- It's all Buddy.
273
00:16:34,499 --> 00:16:37,285
Take one note and put two
or three to it, he tells us.
274
00:16:37,286 --> 00:16:38,430
That gives us our sound.
275
00:16:38,569 --> 00:16:40,771
Oh. I'll describe it
that way to my inspector.
276
00:16:40,805 --> 00:16:42,872
Perhaps he'll gain a greater interest.
277
00:16:42,907 --> 00:16:44,374
A question:
278
00:16:44,409 --> 00:16:47,277
Was Nathan Peters here last night?
279
00:16:47,311 --> 00:16:49,545
I didn't see him.
280
00:16:49,579 --> 00:16:52,481
Nathan had some notion that
ragtime degraded Negro music.
281
00:16:52,516 --> 00:16:54,311
But he couldn't stop us, eh, Buddy?
282
00:16:54,312 --> 00:16:56,606
- We on our own time here.
- He couldn't stop us anyhow.
283
00:16:56,787 --> 00:17:00,824
Can't be stepping in the way of
progress, not even high-falutin' Nathan.
284
00:17:00,858 --> 00:17:03,183
How can you say that after
everything he did for you?
285
00:17:03,184 --> 00:17:04,359
Stick to singing, honey.
286
00:17:04,461 --> 00:17:07,029
Don't mess when it don't concern you.
287
00:17:28,839 --> 00:17:30,173
Murdoch.
288
00:17:32,176 --> 00:17:34,777
One of our pals from the docks.
289
00:17:42,753 --> 00:17:45,388
Evening, gentlemen.
290
00:17:45,422 --> 00:17:48,257
Have any of you seen
this man gambling here?
291
00:17:52,229 --> 00:17:53,730
Anyone?
292
00:17:55,733 --> 00:17:57,199
Maybe.
293
00:17:57,234 --> 00:18:00,202
It's hard to tell one
from another. Right, boys?
294
00:18:02,239 --> 00:18:04,806
I could shut this place down
in a heartbeat, and you with it.
295
00:18:08,412 --> 00:18:11,013
All right, he was at the game all week.
296
00:18:11,048 --> 00:18:12,948
He lost more than he won.
297
00:18:12,982 --> 00:18:15,717
- What about last night?
- No, he didn't show.
298
00:18:15,752 --> 00:18:17,786
- You sure?
- Sure I'm sure.
299
00:18:42,511 --> 00:18:45,713
So, Nathan Peters gambled here and lost.
300
00:18:45,747 --> 00:18:49,050
Though if the owner's to be
believed, he didn't play last night.
301
00:18:49,084 --> 00:18:51,619
Did the band members give you anything?
302
00:18:51,653 --> 00:18:55,289
No, sir. But I'm quite convinced
that they're hiding something.
303
00:18:55,323 --> 00:18:58,425
Musicians. An odd lot.
Follow your nose, Murdoch.
304
00:18:58,460 --> 00:19:01,662
Oh, not more of this bloody racket.
305
00:19:01,697 --> 00:19:03,437
Actually, sir, it's quite interesting.
306
00:19:03,515 --> 00:19:06,533
They play three notes where
conventionally there would only be one.
307
00:19:06,568 --> 00:19:09,303
- It creates a...
- Pounding bloody headache!
308
00:19:09,337 --> 00:19:11,305
Unless you need me
further, I'm off to my bed.
309
00:19:11,339 --> 00:19:13,307
- By the back door.
- Good night.
310
00:19:13,341 --> 00:19:14,841
Good night!
311
00:19:28,489 --> 00:19:31,091
One second.
312
00:19:31,125 --> 00:19:32,592
Detective Murdoch.
313
00:19:32,627 --> 00:19:35,495
- What brings you here?
- Doctor Grace.
314
00:19:35,529 --> 00:19:38,431
I believe Nathan Peters was
killed out behind this building
315
00:19:38,465 --> 00:19:39,932
and then his body was moved.
316
00:19:39,966 --> 00:19:41,934
- Really?
- Yes.
317
00:19:41,968 --> 00:19:44,270
I see this place attracts
modernists of all kinds.
318
00:19:44,304 --> 00:19:46,205
Mr. Garland.
319
00:19:46,240 --> 00:19:49,008
- Detective.
- Hello there.
320
00:19:49,042 --> 00:19:52,544
- Uh, Leslie Garland...
- We've already met.
321
00:19:52,578 --> 00:19:55,614
Taking a break from corpses?
You've come to the right place.
322
00:19:55,649 --> 00:19:57,049
So it seems.
323
00:19:57,083 --> 00:19:59,151
I heard music like this in
a little place I frequented
324
00:19:59,185 --> 00:20:02,021
in New York City. Such
an intoxicating sound.
325
00:20:06,392 --> 00:20:08,660
Mr. Garland, Doctor,
326
00:20:08,694 --> 00:20:10,928
I bid you good evening.
327
00:20:24,710 --> 00:20:26,377
It's all in the syncopation.
328
00:20:26,411 --> 00:20:27,879
Syncopation?
329
00:20:27,913 --> 00:20:30,148
The essence of what you're hearing.
330
00:20:30,182 --> 00:20:33,250
The emphasis on the weaker beat
gives the music its ragged rhythm.
331
00:20:33,285 --> 00:20:36,487
- Thus...
- Ragtime. Exactly, Emily.
332
00:20:36,521 --> 00:20:39,891
- A little forward, Mr. Garland.
- Oh, look around.
333
00:20:39,925 --> 00:20:41,795
Everyone's breaking the rules.
334
00:20:42,010 --> 00:20:45,663
- It's what we came to do, is it not?
- I was simply curious.
335
00:20:45,697 --> 00:20:47,764
That's an excellent first step.
336
00:20:47,799 --> 00:20:50,334
May I buy you a drink...
337
00:20:50,368 --> 00:20:51,968
Emily?
338
00:21:00,211 --> 00:21:01,530
I'm under pressure from Miss Hamilton
339
00:21:01,532 --> 00:21:03,785
and the Temperance mob to
close down The Blind Pig.
340
00:21:04,215 --> 00:21:06,883
- I'm of half a mind to do it.
- Protecting the city's morals?
341
00:21:06,918 --> 00:21:08,885
Protecting the city's eardrums, more like.
342
00:21:08,920 --> 00:21:10,887
What did you get from those musicians?
343
00:21:10,922 --> 00:21:12,889
I spoke to the clerk, and
none of them left the hotel
344
00:21:12,924 --> 00:21:14,890
after midnight on the night of the murder.
345
00:21:14,925 --> 00:21:16,892
- So, we're no further ahead.
- Sirs.
346
00:21:16,927 --> 00:21:19,829
Nathan Peters' trumpet.
His wife confirms it.
347
00:21:19,863 --> 00:21:21,897
I just found it at McGinnis's Pawn Shop.
348
00:21:21,932 --> 00:21:24,300
- Who hocked it, Crabtree?
- Mick O'Shea.
349
00:21:24,335 --> 00:21:27,036
Got the bugger!
350
00:21:27,070 --> 00:21:30,306
You rolled Nathan Peters for
his wallet and his trumpet!
351
00:21:30,341 --> 00:21:31,776
- Not me!
- Teaching him a lesson
352
00:21:31,777 --> 00:21:33,931
- about being uppity, was you?
- I swear I wasn't!
353
00:21:33,942 --> 00:21:36,479
- Only the robbery got out of hand, didn't it, eh?!
- No!
354
00:21:36,981 --> 00:21:39,716
Peters died and now you're
facing the noose. Come here!
355
00:21:39,751 --> 00:21:41,718
You disgust me, O'Shea!
356
00:21:42,903 --> 00:21:46,305
All right, all right. I pawned the trumpet.
357
00:21:46,339 --> 00:21:49,508
- Where's the wallet?!
- What wallet?
358
00:21:49,542 --> 00:21:52,978
Ahh! Ooh!
359
00:21:55,482 --> 00:21:56,982
Come here!
360
00:21:57,016 --> 00:22:00,652
Where's the wallet?! All right! All right.
361
00:22:07,660 --> 00:22:10,762
But I didn't kill him. I swear!
362
00:22:10,796 --> 00:22:12,497
That's a lie!
363
00:22:12,531 --> 00:22:14,499
I found it near the warehouses.
364
00:22:14,533 --> 00:22:16,759
- You've got to believe me.
- Where?
365
00:22:16,761 --> 00:22:19,129
Tossed in an alley, behind some crates.
366
00:22:19,163 --> 00:22:21,965
- When was that?!
- Around...
367
00:22:21,999 --> 00:22:24,134
11 o'clock that night.
368
00:22:24,168 --> 00:22:26,136
I swear to God I didn't know
369
00:22:26,170 --> 00:22:28,838
it was the dead man's!
370
00:22:43,019 --> 00:22:47,656
Nathan Peters was killed
between 1 and 3 am.
371
00:22:47,690 --> 00:22:52,128
If Mr. O'Shea says he found
the wallet and trumpet at 11pm,
372
00:22:52,162 --> 00:22:54,263
the timing just doesn't fit.
373
00:22:54,297 --> 00:22:57,298
That's if he's telling the truth.
374
00:22:57,333 --> 00:22:59,434
Oh, he's telling the truth, Murdoch.
375
00:22:59,468 --> 00:23:01,302
Trust me.
376
00:23:03,673 --> 00:23:06,041
It's like nothing you've
ever heard before, George.
377
00:23:06,075 --> 00:23:09,611
The rhythm of the music is
altered, it becomes ragged,
378
00:23:09,646 --> 00:23:11,312
so ragtime.
379
00:23:11,347 --> 00:23:13,814
Well, if there's no beat,
then how does the band know
380
00:23:13,849 --> 00:23:15,983
- what to play?
- There's still a rhythm;
381
00:23:16,018 --> 00:23:18,486
It just becomes more... unexpected.
382
00:23:18,521 --> 00:23:20,788
Ah. Sort of as if
383
00:23:20,822 --> 00:23:23,158
- the beat were in the background?
- Exactly.
384
00:23:23,192 --> 00:23:25,660
You know an awful lot about music, Emily.
385
00:23:25,694 --> 00:23:27,828
I'm not without some ability.
386
00:23:27,863 --> 00:23:29,797
I have a tin ear myself.
387
00:23:29,831 --> 00:23:31,799
But it sounds like you had a lot of fun.
388
00:23:31,833 --> 00:23:33,668
I did. It was so exciting.
389
00:23:33,702 --> 00:23:36,570
So modern.
390
00:23:36,604 --> 00:23:38,205
Detective.
391
00:23:38,239 --> 00:23:41,341
I was just explaining ragtime
music to the constable.
392
00:23:41,376 --> 00:23:43,978
Dr. Grace,
393
00:23:44,012 --> 00:23:46,047
a question about Nathan Peters.
394
00:23:46,081 --> 00:23:47,481
Yes. How can I help?
395
00:23:47,515 --> 00:23:50,184
I'm confused by the timing of his death.
396
00:23:50,218 --> 00:23:51,985
He died between 1 and 3 am.
397
00:23:52,019 --> 00:23:54,388
- Of that I am certain, Detective.
- Yes,
398
00:23:54,422 --> 00:23:57,324
but could have been assaulted earlier?
399
00:23:57,358 --> 00:23:59,859
Perhaps around 11pm?
400
00:23:59,894 --> 00:24:02,229
- What are you thinking, sir?
- Well, George,
401
00:24:02,263 --> 00:24:04,530
what if Mr. Peters' assailant
assumed that he was dead
402
00:24:04,565 --> 00:24:07,567
- at the time he moved his body?
- But he didn't actually die
403
00:24:07,601 --> 00:24:10,770
- until the early hours of the morning.
- Exactly.
404
00:24:10,805 --> 00:24:12,906
The post-mortem evidence
would support that theory.
405
00:24:12,940 --> 00:24:15,709
But, sir, if that were the case,
406
00:24:15,743 --> 00:24:18,228
if Nathan Peters was
assaulted before midnight,
407
00:24:18,229 --> 00:24:19,800
before the hotel doors were locked...
408
00:24:19,802 --> 00:24:24,116
A fellow member of the Jubilee Singers
could be responsible for his death.
409
00:24:34,660 --> 00:24:35,127
We been friends
410
00:24:35,161 --> 00:24:37,129
since we were boys, Nathan and I...
411
00:24:37,163 --> 00:24:39,531
fished in the same river,
sang in the same choir.
412
00:24:39,565 --> 00:24:41,533
Why, that's where he met Chloe.
413
00:24:41,567 --> 00:24:43,635
It was Nathan's idea
that we form the Singers.
414
00:24:43,669 --> 00:24:45,303
But Nathan is dead.
415
00:24:45,338 --> 00:24:48,573
And now, Mr. Hughes,
you are the new leader.
416
00:24:48,608 --> 00:24:51,944
Are you suggesting that
I killed my best friend?
417
00:24:51,978 --> 00:24:54,212
Everyone here is now a suspect,
418
00:24:54,247 --> 00:24:56,214
Mr. Hughes.
419
00:24:56,249 --> 00:24:59,984
Did Mr. Peters clash with
Buddy Duncan, Mr. Hardy?
420
00:25:00,018 --> 00:25:02,420
No man wants to be told by his juniors.
421
00:25:02,455 --> 00:25:05,423
But he tussled most with Buddy.
422
00:25:05,458 --> 00:25:07,692
Buddy wanted to modernize our repertoire;
423
00:25:07,727 --> 00:25:09,693
Said it would improve our audiences,
424
00:25:09,728 --> 00:25:12,596
- but Nathan wouldn't allow it.
- Why not?
425
00:25:12,631 --> 00:25:14,400
We are a spiritual group.
426
00:25:14,401 --> 00:25:16,810
My husband had no use for modern music.
427
00:25:16,811 --> 00:25:19,658
But then... ticket sales were waning.
428
00:25:20,630 --> 00:25:21,605
My husband wasn't killed
429
00:25:21,640 --> 00:25:24,608
because we no longer play
to full houses, Constable.
430
00:25:24,643 --> 00:25:28,646
Yes, we disagreed about music.
He didn't hear what I hear.
431
00:25:31,316 --> 00:25:33,484
He didn't approve of you
playing at The Blind Pig?
432
00:25:33,518 --> 00:25:37,788
Nathan and me, we were like father and son.
433
00:25:37,822 --> 00:25:39,790
It was something I had to break from.
434
00:25:39,824 --> 00:25:43,126
That's just nature taking its course.
435
00:25:43,161 --> 00:25:45,962
Buddy comes across as
skittish, but his horn,
436
00:25:45,997 --> 00:25:48,131
it talks smooth as silk stockings.
437
00:25:48,166 --> 00:25:49,800
Skittish and fond of a drink.
438
00:25:49,834 --> 00:25:52,169
His mind gets troubled, Constable.
439
00:25:52,203 --> 00:25:55,172
He needs the oblivion the
bottle brings, I guess.
440
00:25:55,206 --> 00:25:57,607
Nathan hiring him was the
best thing could happen;
441
00:25:57,641 --> 00:25:59,542
Saved him from his worst excesses.
442
00:25:59,576 --> 00:26:01,678
- So, Nathan Peters hired him?
- Yes.
443
00:26:01,712 --> 00:26:04,046
Saw his talent and
picked him up right away.
444
00:26:04,080 --> 00:26:06,816
But Buddy's no good at being tied...
445
00:26:06,850 --> 00:26:08,731
not the way Nathan wanted.
446
00:26:08,732 --> 00:26:10,522
You're a good friend of Buddy Duncan's.
447
00:26:10,524 --> 00:26:12,625
I look out for him, yes.
448
00:26:12,659 --> 00:26:15,827
So, maybe you took care of
Nathan Peters to free him.
449
00:26:15,861 --> 00:26:17,996
That's crazy talk.
450
00:26:18,031 --> 00:26:20,165
Last night at the club, you mentioned
451
00:26:20,199 --> 00:26:22,935
what Nathan Peters had
done for Buddy Duncan.
452
00:26:22,969 --> 00:26:24,436
What did you mean?
453
00:26:24,470 --> 00:26:27,406
Nathan hired Buddy after
what happened in Buffalo.
454
00:26:27,440 --> 00:26:28,907
What was that?
455
00:26:28,942 --> 00:26:30,409
Nothing.
456
00:26:30,443 --> 00:26:32,577
Miss Carter, what happened in Buffalo?
457
00:26:34,580 --> 00:26:38,616
Nothing. That's just where
Buddy joined the group is all.
458
00:26:38,651 --> 00:26:40,518
I have to go.
459
00:26:40,553 --> 00:26:43,655
- We're rehearsing.
- But as I recall, you said
460
00:26:43,689 --> 00:26:46,624
you knew all of these
old numbers in your sleep.
461
00:26:46,659 --> 00:26:48,659
We are planning something new.
462
00:26:51,863 --> 00:26:55,066
I get the impression they're
struggling financially, sir.
463
00:26:55,100 --> 00:26:58,002
And they all seem... almost secretive.
464
00:26:58,036 --> 00:27:01,672
I mean, I suppose they feel
like outsiders, being Negro.
465
00:27:01,706 --> 00:27:04,675
George, look into the background
of the Jubilee Singers.
466
00:27:04,709 --> 00:27:07,177
Anything in particular, sir?
467
00:27:07,211 --> 00:27:11,515
Yes. Look into the
night they played Buffalo
468
00:27:11,549 --> 00:27:14,317
- about a year ago.
- Sir.
469
00:27:24,467 --> 00:27:26,906
The Jubilee Singers have quite
taken leave of their senses.
470
00:27:27,070 --> 00:27:29,158
Well, I thought they were very
respectable, Miss Hamilton,
471
00:27:29,159 --> 00:27:30,226
your kind of entertainment.
472
00:27:30,473 --> 00:27:32,474
You cannot rely on anyone these days.
473
00:27:32,508 --> 00:27:34,476
Instead of those charming plantation songs,
474
00:27:34,510 --> 00:27:36,511
they're now performing acts of lewdness.
475
00:27:36,545 --> 00:27:38,713
- Lewdness?
- On stage, no less.
476
00:27:40,716 --> 00:27:43,384
Sounds like a matter for
the detective to investigate.
477
00:27:46,888 --> 00:27:49,423
Mr. Peters' assailant likely moved the body
478
00:27:49,457 --> 00:27:52,392
before checking to see
if he was indeed dead.
479
00:27:52,427 --> 00:27:54,996
Perhaps he or she panicked,
which would suggest that
480
00:27:55,030 --> 00:27:57,732
the killing was not premeditated
but a spontaneous act.
481
00:27:57,766 --> 00:28:00,968
Yes, but what was the motivation?
482
00:28:01,003 --> 00:28:04,571
Could it be unrelated to
the Jubilee Singers entirely?
483
00:28:04,606 --> 00:28:08,142
Possibly. But I know
they're hiding something.
484
00:28:08,176 --> 00:28:09,709
George is looking into
485
00:28:09,744 --> 00:28:12,479
- the group's past now.
- I warn you, Constable.
486
00:28:12,514 --> 00:28:15,482
The good citizens of Toronto
will not permit this depravity.
487
00:28:15,517 --> 00:28:18,217
Yes, of course, Miss Hamilton, of course.
488
00:28:19,754 --> 00:28:23,690
Allow me to purchase the tickets, William.
489
00:28:23,724 --> 00:28:27,527
We demand a return to decency! Purity!
490
00:28:27,561 --> 00:28:29,195
Virtue!
491
00:28:29,229 --> 00:28:32,165
Miss Hamilton hasn't dampened
the public's enthusiasm.
492
00:28:32,199 --> 00:28:33,667
Nor mine.
493
00:28:33,701 --> 00:28:35,701
... is unacceptable. Here, take this.
494
00:29:43,334 --> 00:29:45,368
Wonderful!
495
00:29:49,172 --> 00:29:52,408
- They loved it!
- Girl, you were on fire.
496
00:29:52,443 --> 00:29:55,077
The box office receipts have
497
00:29:55,112 --> 00:29:57,780
certainly benefited
from your new repertoire.
498
00:29:57,814 --> 00:30:00,916
It seems Buddy was right.
We can pay some bills now.
499
00:30:00,951 --> 00:30:03,485
Not something your husband
would have staged, I presume.
500
00:30:03,519 --> 00:30:04,987
Did you approve, Mrs. Peters?
501
00:30:05,021 --> 00:30:06,989
I always stood by Nathan, Detective.
502
00:30:07,023 --> 00:30:09,125
I gave in to the group's
wishes with some reluctance.
503
00:30:09,159 --> 00:30:10,926
And now Buddy Duncan is
504
00:30:10,961 --> 00:30:13,856
- your new musical director?
- It was his idea all along.
505
00:30:13,896 --> 00:30:15,697
He was pushing Nathan to try it.
506
00:30:15,732 --> 00:30:19,135
Offers are pouring in.
507
00:30:19,169 --> 00:30:20,769
Come on!
508
00:30:20,803 --> 00:30:22,871
- Let's go!
- Come on!
509
00:30:22,905 --> 00:30:26,441
Whether I like it or not, it
seems the future is ragtime.
510
00:30:26,476 --> 00:30:28,777
That swirling silk and
those flowing movements.
511
00:30:28,811 --> 00:30:31,212
How wonderful to see a
woman's body liberated
512
00:30:31,247 --> 00:30:33,348
from the restriction of a corset.
513
00:30:33,383 --> 00:30:35,350
Nathan Peters would be appalled.
514
00:30:35,385 --> 00:30:38,787
Queen Victoria is no
doubt turning in her grave.
515
00:30:38,821 --> 00:30:41,823
I found it very sensuous.
516
00:30:41,857 --> 00:30:43,357
Hmm.
517
00:30:43,392 --> 00:30:46,360
Mr. Peters was clinging to the past,
518
00:30:46,395 --> 00:30:49,230
and Buddy Duncan was pushing for change.
519
00:30:49,265 --> 00:30:51,499
Now he's dead, Buddy wins.
520
00:30:51,533 --> 00:30:54,535
Do you think creative differences
could be motive for murder?
521
00:30:54,569 --> 00:30:58,806
Buddy murders so that Hattie
Carter can show off her lovely legs?
522
00:30:58,840 --> 00:31:01,676
That seems unlikely.
523
00:31:01,710 --> 00:31:05,879
- Passions run high among these artist types.
- Yes.
524
00:31:05,914 --> 00:31:09,016
Artists do have all the fun.
525
00:31:09,050 --> 00:31:11,852
It doesn't seem fair.
526
00:31:33,273 --> 00:31:35,274
Well, thank you very much for your time.
527
00:31:35,309 --> 00:31:37,377
Sirs, I've gleaned some information
528
00:31:37,411 --> 00:31:39,512
on the Jubilee Singers. Before they left
529
00:31:39,547 --> 00:31:40,596
for England, they played in Buffalo.
530
00:31:40,597 --> 00:31:41,972
This was about a year ago.
531
00:31:42,615 --> 00:31:44,683
Before, their popularity was waning,
532
00:31:44,718 --> 00:31:45,858
- but it seems...
- Get on with it, Crabtree.
533
00:31:45,862 --> 00:31:47,888
Sirs. They played at the Adelphi Theatre.
534
00:31:47,889 --> 00:31:49,872
It was one night, and seemingly uneventful,
535
00:31:49,873 --> 00:31:51,251
except for one strange occurrence:
536
00:31:51,626 --> 00:31:54,727
Near the theatre, a man
by the name of Sam Brooks
537
00:31:54,761 --> 00:31:56,628
was beaten to death.
538
00:31:56,663 --> 00:31:58,964
- Was he coloured?
- No, sir, he was quite white.
539
00:31:58,998 --> 00:32:02,267
I just got off the telephone with his
widow. The murderer was never found.
540
00:32:02,301 --> 00:32:06,372
Perhaps the death of Sam Brooks is
the secret the group is trying to hide.
541
00:32:06,406 --> 00:32:09,341
Didn't Mr. Peters hire
Buddy Duncan in Buffalo?
542
00:32:09,376 --> 00:32:11,009
He did.
543
00:32:13,012 --> 00:32:17,182
Mr. Duncan, why did you
join the Jubilee Singers?
544
00:32:17,216 --> 00:32:20,986
Nathan saw Buddy playing
with a group on the same bill.
545
00:32:21,020 --> 00:32:23,521
He was impressed with his
talent and he hired him. So what?
546
00:32:23,555 --> 00:32:26,224
Why doesn't Mr. Duncan answer for himself?
547
00:32:26,259 --> 00:32:29,027
Uh... Buddy's not so
good with authority ...
548
00:32:29,061 --> 00:32:30,661
uh, police and such.
549
00:32:30,696 --> 00:32:32,864
Maybe there's a good reason.
550
00:32:32,898 --> 00:32:35,533
The night Buddy joined the
Jubilee Singers in Buffalo,
551
00:32:35,567 --> 00:32:37,167
a man name Sam Brooks
552
00:32:37,202 --> 00:32:39,136
was murdered.
553
00:32:39,170 --> 00:32:41,972
- His killer is still at large.
- We know nothing of a killing.
554
00:32:42,007 --> 00:32:44,675
I'm not sure I believe you, Mrs. Peters.
555
00:32:44,710 --> 00:32:47,478
Miss Carter?
556
00:32:47,513 --> 00:32:49,746
Have you something you'd care to add?
557
00:32:52,884 --> 00:32:56,053
Perhaps the Buffalo Police
Department would be interested
558
00:32:56,087 --> 00:32:57,521
in Mr. Duncan's sudden
559
00:32:57,555 --> 00:32:59,623
departure the night that
Sam Brooks was murdered.
560
00:32:59,657 --> 00:33:02,793
- Not Buddy.
- We've said all there is to say.
561
00:33:07,197 --> 00:33:09,533
Then you leave me no choice, Miss Carter.
562
00:33:09,567 --> 00:33:11,601
I can't tell you anything.
563
00:33:11,636 --> 00:33:14,103
Then my constables will arrest
Mr. Duncan within the hour
564
00:33:14,138 --> 00:33:16,105
and escort him back to Buffalo.
565
00:33:16,140 --> 00:33:18,675
- You can't do that!
- I most certainly can.
566
00:33:18,709 --> 00:33:21,877
- Constable.
- Stop!
567
00:33:21,912 --> 00:33:23,879
It's not what you think.
568
00:33:23,914 --> 00:33:27,183
Buddy was ambushed outside the
Buffalo theatre by a white man.
569
00:33:27,217 --> 00:33:30,186
Did Buddy kill Sam Brooks?
570
00:33:30,220 --> 00:33:32,855
Nathan heard the commotion
and came to Buddy's aid.
571
00:33:32,889 --> 00:33:35,724
But it was too late. Brooks
lay dead from fighting.
572
00:33:35,759 --> 00:33:37,893
Buddy didn't mean
573
00:33:37,928 --> 00:33:39,528
to kill him.
574
00:33:39,563 --> 00:33:41,530
A man has the right to defend himself,
575
00:33:41,565 --> 00:33:43,699
and a Negro man has the same right, sir.
576
00:33:43,733 --> 00:33:46,836
Did everyone in the group
know what Mr. Duncan had done?
577
00:33:46,870 --> 00:33:51,707
You don't know what it is
to live in black skin, sir.
578
00:33:51,741 --> 00:33:54,142
He's no killer.
579
00:33:54,177 --> 00:33:56,144
It was self-defense.
580
00:33:56,179 --> 00:33:59,547
So, you've all harboured him ever since.
581
00:33:59,582 --> 00:34:02,684
Nathan prayed for guidance.
What choice was there?
582
00:34:02,718 --> 00:34:04,686
He rescued Buddy from sure death.
583
00:34:04,720 --> 00:34:07,422
A mob or the courts, they'd
both put a noose around his neck.
584
00:34:07,457 --> 00:34:09,424
Sir.
585
00:34:09,459 --> 00:34:11,726
Excuse me. There's someone
you have to see here.
586
00:34:19,401 --> 00:34:22,003
Sir, this is Cora Brooks,
widow of Sam Brooks.
587
00:34:22,037 --> 00:34:25,540
Tell me where he is and I won't
waste any more of your time.
588
00:34:25,574 --> 00:34:27,708
She's looking for Buddy Duncan, sir.
589
00:34:27,742 --> 00:34:29,710
What business do you have with him?
590
00:34:29,744 --> 00:34:32,179
Uh, this...
591
00:34:32,214 --> 00:34:35,049
this is our boy.
592
00:34:35,083 --> 00:34:38,585
Buddy Duncan is your child's father.
593
00:34:47,831 --> 00:34:49,998
I know what it looks like,
594
00:34:50,033 --> 00:34:53,169
a white woman with a coloured baby.
595
00:34:53,203 --> 00:34:56,438
I don't ask you to understand.
596
00:34:56,473 --> 00:35:00,742
Buddy was something special, so alive.
597
00:35:00,777 --> 00:35:03,379
Not like Sam, my husband.
598
00:35:03,413 --> 00:35:05,714
He could be cold and cruel.
599
00:35:05,748 --> 00:35:07,849
Tell me what happened
600
00:35:07,884 --> 00:35:10,218
that night in Buffalo, Mrs. Brooks.
601
00:35:10,252 --> 00:35:11,720
Buddy and I, we were...
602
00:35:11,754 --> 00:35:14,122
we're were going to run away together.
603
00:35:14,157 --> 00:35:16,257
But Sam figured out what was going on.
604
00:35:16,292 --> 00:35:17,719
He stormed off to the theatre.
605
00:35:17,818 --> 00:35:20,962
I was scared he would do harm to Buddy,
606
00:35:20,997 --> 00:35:22,963
kill him and me both.
607
00:35:22,998 --> 00:35:24,965
I hid at my sister's.
608
00:35:25,000 --> 00:35:27,235
But Mr. Brooks never returned home?
609
00:35:27,269 --> 00:35:29,237
I never knew what happened.
610
00:35:29,271 --> 00:35:32,473
I tried to find Buddy, but he was gone.
611
00:35:32,508 --> 00:35:35,443
Did you know you were
carrying Buddy's child?
612
00:35:35,477 --> 00:35:38,145
I realized soon after he left.
613
00:35:38,180 --> 00:35:42,049
Did anyone else from the
group know about your son?
614
00:35:42,084 --> 00:35:43,718
Yes, I told Mr. Peters.
615
00:35:43,752 --> 00:35:45,385
When was this?
616
00:35:45,420 --> 00:35:48,055
A few nights ago. I
learned the Jubilee Singers
617
00:35:48,090 --> 00:35:50,691
were back and playing in
Toronto, so I took the train up,
618
00:35:50,726 --> 00:35:52,193
but by the time I got here
619
00:35:52,227 --> 00:35:54,461
there was no one was no one
at the theatre but Mr. Peters.
620
00:35:54,495 --> 00:35:56,763
And you told Mr. Peters your story?
621
00:35:56,797 --> 00:36:00,601
Yes. He was pretty upset about the baby.
622
00:36:00,635 --> 00:36:02,969
And did you see Buddy Duncan?
623
00:36:03,003 --> 00:36:06,440
Mr. Peters told me he'd left the group.
624
00:36:06,474 --> 00:36:09,343
He sent me back to Buffalo
without a kind word.
625
00:36:12,546 --> 00:36:16,149
Mrs. Brooks, why have you
now returned to Toronto?
626
00:36:16,183 --> 00:36:18,852
I got the telephone call
from Constable Crabtree
627
00:36:18,886 --> 00:36:20,635
asking about Sam's murder.
628
00:36:21,113 --> 00:36:22,436
He mentioned Buddy's name.
629
00:36:22,437 --> 00:36:26,482
That's when I realized
Mr. Peters lied to me.
630
00:36:27,061 --> 00:36:29,595
Buddy was still in Toronto.
631
00:36:29,630 --> 00:36:31,497
Why would he do that?
632
00:36:31,531 --> 00:36:34,032
Why not tell me Buddy was here?
633
00:36:39,505 --> 00:36:42,474
That night in Buffalo,
Nathan Peters hears a fight.
634
00:36:42,508 --> 00:36:47,211
He steps outside to find Buddy Duncan
standing over a dead Sam Brooks.
635
00:36:47,246 --> 00:36:50,782
Mr. Duncan claims self-defense
in a racial attack.
636
00:36:50,816 --> 00:36:53,251
Nathan Peters is a good Christian man;
637
00:36:53,285 --> 00:36:56,320
Empathetic to a fellow Negro,
he takes him into the group.
638
00:36:56,354 --> 00:36:58,689
But a year later, he learns
the truth from Cora Brooks.
639
00:36:58,723 --> 00:37:02,693
Sam Brooks set upon Buddy Duncan because
the man was having relations with his wife.
640
00:37:02,727 --> 00:37:04,896
Nathan's very upset with Buddy now.
641
00:37:04,930 --> 00:37:06,898
Buddy didn't give him the whole story.
642
00:37:06,932 --> 00:37:08,899
And now that a white
woman is looking for him,
643
00:37:08,933 --> 00:37:09,896
the police can't be far behind.
644
00:37:09,897 --> 00:37:12,498
Nathan goes to The Blind
Pig to confront him.
645
00:37:13,037 --> 00:37:15,673
Buddy Duncan kills Nathan Peters.
646
00:37:18,209 --> 00:37:21,178
Mrs. Peters. A moment.
647
00:37:24,715 --> 00:37:26,683
Where is Mr. Duncan?
648
00:37:26,717 --> 00:37:28,451
I wish we knew.
649
00:37:28,485 --> 00:37:30,553
He's gonna miss the train
if he doesn't show soon.
650
00:37:30,587 --> 00:37:33,756
- Face it, Hardy, he's taken off on us.
- What do you want with Buddy?
651
00:37:33,791 --> 00:37:36,927
I'm here to arrest him for the
murder of your husband, Mrs. Peters.
652
00:37:36,961 --> 00:37:39,362
You're wrong. Buddy's no murderer.
653
00:37:39,396 --> 00:37:41,197
I know he killed Sam Brooks in Buffalo.
654
00:37:41,231 --> 00:37:43,199
Thanks to Hattie's big mouth.
655
00:37:43,233 --> 00:37:45,201
That was different. He
was defending himself.
656
00:37:45,235 --> 00:37:47,903
- That man meant to kill him.
- Buddy wouldn't harm Nathan.
657
00:37:47,938 --> 00:37:50,707
His sudden disappearance
would suggest otherwise.
658
00:37:50,741 --> 00:37:52,842
What are you doing here, Detective?
659
00:37:52,876 --> 00:37:54,577
He thinks Buddy murdered Nathan.
660
00:37:54,611 --> 00:37:58,247
You're looking at the wrong people.
Why would we harm one of our own?
661
00:38:12,729 --> 00:38:15,296
Mr. Hughes.
662
00:38:15,331 --> 00:38:17,799
Why would you kill your best friend?
663
00:38:17,834 --> 00:38:20,034
What are you talking about?
664
00:38:20,069 --> 00:38:22,136
You're under arrest, Mr. Hughes.
665
00:38:22,171 --> 00:38:24,539
Ozzy, what's he saying?
666
00:38:24,574 --> 00:38:26,541
Your trombone case.
667
00:38:26,576 --> 00:38:29,043
I believe it'll match the
wound that killed Mr. Peters.
668
00:38:29,078 --> 00:38:31,679
Ozzy?
669
00:38:36,485 --> 00:38:38,286
It was an accident.
670
00:38:38,320 --> 00:38:41,890
Please forgive me, Chloe. I...
671
00:38:41,924 --> 00:38:43,424
How could you?
672
00:38:45,427 --> 00:38:48,562
Wait, you don't... no, you can't think
673
00:38:48,597 --> 00:38:51,265
I meant to kill him. No. I...
674
00:38:54,102 --> 00:38:57,738
I saw him outside the theatre
talking to a white woman.
675
00:38:57,773 --> 00:39:00,808
- We have a child together.
- I don't care. No!
676
00:39:00,842 --> 00:39:03,277
And he was upset, so I
knew something was up.
677
00:39:06,881 --> 00:39:08,615
I followed him to The Blind Pig,
678
00:39:08,649 --> 00:39:11,418
And then Nathan told me that...
679
00:39:11,452 --> 00:39:13,820
Why, he said Buddy had to leave the band.
680
00:39:13,854 --> 00:39:18,158
So I pleaded with him not
to fire Buddy. We needed him.
681
00:39:18,192 --> 00:39:20,159
What's going on with that lady back there?
682
00:39:20,193 --> 00:39:22,595
But he just wouldn't listen.
He kept being his old... well,
683
00:39:22,630 --> 00:39:24,564
you know how stubborn he was.
684
00:39:27,000 --> 00:39:31,270
So we argued, and he grabbed
me, I lost my balance.
685
00:39:31,305 --> 00:39:33,706
My case must have accidentally
swung up and hit him,
686
00:39:33,741 --> 00:39:35,875
but...
687
00:39:35,910 --> 00:39:39,545
I didn't realize I hit him that hard.
688
00:39:44,818 --> 00:39:47,519
Buddy was our future.
689
00:39:47,554 --> 00:39:49,455
Without him,
690
00:39:49,489 --> 00:39:52,158
the Jubilee Singers were
finished. You all know that.
691
00:39:58,164 --> 00:40:01,567
I didn't want Nathan to die.
692
00:40:01,601 --> 00:40:03,569
He was my best friend.
693
00:40:03,603 --> 00:40:06,404
Your best friend?
694
00:40:06,439 --> 00:40:08,540
He was my husband.
695
00:40:08,575 --> 00:40:13,044
And you tossed him away
like a piece of garbage?
696
00:40:13,079 --> 00:40:15,981
What did you think? No
one would ask questions?
697
00:40:16,015 --> 00:40:19,750
He was just a dead Negro
no one would care about?
698
00:40:19,785 --> 00:40:23,121
Please forgive me, Chloe.
699
00:40:25,124 --> 00:40:27,358
No. Never.
700
00:40:56,103 --> 00:40:57,663
Sam Brooks was outraged
701
00:40:57,664 --> 00:41:00,870
that a Negro man was
sleeping with his wife.
702
00:41:00,904 --> 00:41:03,639
He attacked, and Buddy Duncan fought back.
703
00:41:03,674 --> 00:41:06,542
Each defending his male pride.
704
00:41:06,576 --> 00:41:09,344
Buddy Duncan may have killed
Sam Brooks in self-defense,
705
00:41:09,379 --> 00:41:11,981
but he set in motion a
series of tragic events.
706
00:41:12,015 --> 00:41:14,650
Including Cora Brooks and her child.
707
00:41:14,685 --> 00:41:17,553
- She seemed determined to find him.
- Well, of course.
708
00:41:17,587 --> 00:41:20,556
She's in love with him.
709
00:41:20,590 --> 00:41:23,158
Women in love can be quite tenacious.
710
00:41:23,193 --> 00:41:26,094
Yes, they can.
711
00:41:50,719 --> 00:41:52,186
Where is everyone?
712
00:41:52,221 --> 00:41:54,689
They all left with Buddy and his band.
713
00:41:54,723 --> 00:41:56,172
I'm delighted to see
714
00:41:56,175 --> 00:41:59,059
you enjoying wholesome
entertainment, Constable.
715
00:41:59,094 --> 00:42:00,561
Yes indeed, Miss Hamilton.
716
00:42:04,233 --> 00:42:08,001
I fear it may be a long while
before we hear ragtime again.
717
00:42:08,036 --> 00:42:10,570
Well, perhaps you and I can
take a trip to one of these
718
00:42:10,605 --> 00:42:13,573
Buffalo clubs I've read about in
the newspaper. Or even Chicago.
719
00:42:13,608 --> 00:42:17,144
George, it may not be that long after all.
720
00:42:21,916 --> 00:42:23,550
May I?
721
00:42:23,584 --> 00:42:25,252
Absolutely.
722
00:42:40,500 --> 00:42:43,736
To think those hands cut up corpses.
723
00:42:43,771 --> 00:42:45,738
I'm afraid I play poorly.
724
00:42:45,773 --> 00:42:49,075
- Good enough for ragtime.
- Thank you, Mr. Garland.
725
00:42:49,109 --> 00:42:50,609
It's Leslie.
726
00:43:08,528 --> 00:43:10,362
I love it.
727
00:43:10,397 --> 00:43:11,897
That's it.
728
00:43:25,232 --> 00:43:26,881
All new Murdoch, next Monday...
729
00:43:26,883 --> 00:43:27,725
You really think somebody
730
00:43:27,726 --> 00:43:29,866
tunnelled up from the
earth to rob a jeweller?
731
00:43:29,867 --> 00:43:32,643
Life exists inside the
hollows of the earth.
732
00:43:32,645 --> 00:43:34,359
I've been at the jeweller's
all day waiting for a...
733
00:43:34,362 --> 00:43:35,340
Waiting for what, George?
734
00:43:35,341 --> 00:43:36,456
Waiting for a man to arrive
735
00:43:36,458 --> 00:43:37,651
from beneath the earth.
736
00:43:37,652 --> 00:43:38,315
Murdoch Mysteries,
737
00:43:38,316 --> 00:43:40,062
next Monday at 8:00 on CBC.
