- What more is there to have?
17

- A decent English breakfast.
- And what is that, Hastings?
18
00:02:29,167 --> 00:02:32,251
- Well, porridge, two eggs,
sausage, bacon, tomato,

toast and marmalade,
and a pot of tea.

That's what I had, anyway.

I think I will return to my bed.
22

No, no, no.
This will suffice for Poirot.

in the English cuisine

25
00:02:43,251 --> 00:02:44,959

a cuisine, my friend.
26
00:02:45,251 --> 00:02:46,876
They have only the food.
- Well, that's a bit harsh.
27
00:02:47,167 --> 00:02:49,084
- Like the meat, overcooked.
The vegetables, too soft.
28

You will recall, Hastings,

in the Argentine?
73
00:05:09,167 --> 00:05:10,626

at the last minute.

into a hotel.

You're Hercule Poirot.

That's not the point.

He's out of touch.
112
00:06:38,542 --> 00:06:39,667
He's got the military
on one side
113
00:06:39,959 --> 00:06:40,792
and the Catholics
on the other.
114
00:06:41,084 --> 00:06:42,334
It's just a matter of time
before one of them

Stephen Carter.

There's been a huge oil strike

He made his fortune in textiles.
137
00:07:27,501 --> 00:07:30,042

You see, I think Barton
Russell's up to something,

person to find out what.

do we have a deal?

- You have most persuasive,
Sefor Russell.

150
00:08:07,084 --> 00:08:09,167
- It seemed appropriate.
151
00:08:11,876 --> 00:08:15,417
- Let us consider it
signed and sealed.
152
00:08:16,667 --> 00:08:19,584
- There was, Hastings,
in the hotel, an atmosphere.
153
00:08:19,876 --> 00:08:22,501
It was not just the heat
but the uncertainty.
154
00:08:24,251 --> 00:08:26,626
I could also feel
a growing sense of unease
155
00:08:26,917 --> 00:08:28,334
and, indeed, of fear.
156
00:08:30,292 --> 00:08:31,584
- Oops, the lights.
157
00:08:31,876 --> 00:08:34,626
I'm sorry, Sefior.
Happens every day now.
158
00:08:34,917 --> 00:08:36,167
It's complete confusion.

- Mr. Poirot, isn't it?
165
00:08:51,459 --> 00:08:52,292
- Yes.
166
00:08:52,584 --> 00:08:54,542
- I saw you talking
to that writer.
167
00:08:54,834 --> 00:08:57,792
You're—you're not here

- Then I should get a move on
if I were you.
171
00:09:02,584 --> 00:09:04,959
Pretty dangerous round here.
172
00:09:05,251 --> 00:09:07,292
Buenos Aires really isn't
the place to be.

00:09:07,584 --> 00:09:08,459

00:09:12,417 --> 00:09:13,542
- What's happened
to the electricity?
178
00:09:13,834 --> 00:09:15,626
Oh, don't tell me
it's another power cut.

- It was mine.
- No, Monsieur Carter!
898
00:46:24,042 --> 00:46:26,167
It was money entrusted to you
by the government of Britain

in this country!

Russell had discovered,

she had to be silenced!

as government funds were used

to support the military junta?
906
00:46:42,917 --> 00:46:45,751
Of course not!
- And you killed her, Carter.
907
00:46:46,042 --> 00:46:48,834
- No.
Wait.
908
00:46:49,126 --> 00:46:53,209
Everything you say is true,
but I didn't kill her.
909

you forget

he was not even at the table
