[Music]

thank you

[Music]

there you go

this is so exciting

Toronto has entered a new era of

sophistication is that so with the

creation of the Toronto Century

Orchestra we're no longer an uncivilized

City oh I don't know I think we're

plenty civilized have you seen the

number of churches lately well for some

people the symphony is

true place of worship This Is The Life

Margaret mingling with the toffs

coughing bloody good champagne language

Thomas we're not in the Station House

Margaret oh oh

who's that you've met her Mrs Serrano

the music director is her husband

I'm so happy you could make it we

wouldn't have missed it for the world

how wonderful you're an Aficionado

inspector truth be told I much prefer

the Opera

huh

for him he's supposed to give a speech

looks as though I'll have to do it

who's the author of it

you have made your opinion known

numerous times Mr Block

we are the symphony orchestra

our artists are the Pinnacle of musical

achievement that is true

and why

are we bringing in a penis from Germany

kriegoff is wonderful and honestly

you'll put our Orchestra on the map

something we are well unable to do

ourselves

[Music]

coming

that you are all here tonight and as he

is still making final Arrangements the

pleasure Falls to me of announcing that

tonight's performance of the Toronto

Symphony will include a performance of

Tchaikovsky's piano Concerto Number One

conducted by Maestro de Leon and

performed with the great pianist

Gregory Krieger

he played that to the shorter in New

York last year apparently it was

fabulous I've never heard of him oh

God he's not

he's not his Oracle criminal yes

Julia

Julia Ogden

a Herbert

are you here with the symphony

yes yes that's the very reason I

returned to Toronto

I thought that I'd see you again

it must be destiny

may I present to my husband William

Murdock

pleased to make your acquaintance

your husband

will the obstacles to our love never

cease

[Music]

what was that

an old flame long extinguished I assure

him

violinists Charmed

are you in the orchestra no

there are no women in this Orchestra oh

is that so I keep asking Mr sirano but

he won't budge perhaps you could

petition him for me

[Music]

no

it's simply not possible

the money isn't there

just a minute

[Music]

get away from me

[Music]

thank you

put me through to Station House four

please

[Music]

well well Cyrus it appears I'm

underdressed for the occasion

I'll give him the circumstances I

suppose it's appropriate

clearly he was grottos but this thing

no murder weapon left behind

oh my what is it

they look like there was a fortune for

all the good times V we know what that

means don't we

an affair

oh sir have a look

pipe and cigarette Ash two people in the

room perhaps

these look quite unique

cigarettes from Cairo

was there anyone else near this office

at the time of the murder sir yes a

stage manager Donald Joseph has an

office just next here I have him waiting

for you in the mountain

Mr Joseph I understand you were in your

office at the time Mr Serrano was killed

Joseph

where I told everyone I would be but I

was sleeping in the piano storage room

please don't tell anyone that's not my

concern are you certain you didn't see

anyone

told you I was asleep I don't care much

for parties

we'll let you know if we have any

further questions

[Music]

it's as you said he was strangled

any other injuries there were scratches

on his neck and cuts on his finger where

he tried to get the wire off his neck

you have any idea what kind of wire was

used I'm afraid not all I know at this

point was the wire was about an eighth

of an inch thick I also found this

wood fragments

from the garage

I'll let you know if I find anything

else

thank you Miss Hart

[Music]

Julia have I missed something oh only

how fabulous I am apparently

from Herbert blocks

yes they're all from him

your old flame

perhaps not as extinguished as you

thought should I be concerned oh don't

be silly William

oh by the way I spoke to Mrs Serrano

last night at her home oh is she

do you mean do I think she's guilty of

something

you know me so well

I know that she's going to be at

Symphony Hall she's going ahead with

this concert no matter what

curious

certainly didn't grieve long

[Music]

this is Serrano

Detective

you're proceeding with the concert

of course

the symphony wasn't just my husband's

dream

it was a dream we shared

Mr Joseph was seen near your husband's

office

do you think it's possible

no of course not they were great friends

do you know of anyone else who may have

wished him harm

no never he was a man of culture and

breeding

we found these diamond earrings

in your husband's pocket

along with this note

he must have bought them for our

anniversary

like a romantic

is there anything else

um

Mrs Serrano did your husband smoke

Victor yes he smoked a pipe

anything else

no never

now if you'll excuse me

so you're Julia Ogden's husband

[Music]

yes I am

is there something I can help you with

oh I'm just observing

trying to imagine what it is this season

well she obviously saw enough in me to

become my wife

and in the future I would prefer you

stopped sending her unwanted gifts

are you threatening me

hardly

I would keep my distance if I thought

the better man had won but uh

it just doesn't seem to be the case

[Music]

I don't know how I can help you I'm

simply an accountant have a seat Mr

cleavy

in a murder investigation it's often

quite helpful to follow the money I did

warn him that his involvement with a

bunch of musicians might be a losing

proposition

was Mr Serrano involved in any other

Ventures that would cause him to lose

money

now is the time to be truthful Mr cleavy

I wouldn't call it Adventure per se he

was also

passionate about women

one in particular

I have a feeling you're not talking

about his wife

Mr Serrano was paying for a lady's

apartment do you know who the lady was

Mrs Serrano came to me just last week

demanding that I tell her and I said the

same so Victor Serrano's wife knew the

affair

she most certainly did Sir what is it

Crabtree

I spoke to Mr as far as bank manager

diamond earrings we found in his

possession Mrs throttle was simply were

a gift for her

but they already belonged to her he

didn't just buy them he collected them

from their safety deposit box

she lied to us also he withdrew one

thousand dollars one thousand

the fool

this Mystery Lady must have cast quite

the spell

[Music]

this is Serrano lied to us she knew that

Mr Serrano was having an affair

she's admitted this Serrano's accountant

told me seems like a good reason for

murder

and she appears to have a temper within

the hour

[Music]

Mrs Serrano yes we'd like a few words

I'm quite busy right now this is Serrano

how long had you known that your husband

was having an affair with another woman

Mr Serrano withdrew a substantial amount

of money just before he was killed we

believe it was FaZe mistress

mistress he had diamond earrings in his

pocket and a note that they were for her

you knew your husband was unfaithful and

the earrings and the money were the last

straw

you were furious with him you killed him

you have lost your minds

my husband was killed and instead of

being out there finding his killer

you're standing here accusing me

perhaps we could speak somewhere private

would you rather the Station House

[Music]

yes I knew my husband was having an

affair and why lie

because I wanted to protect his name he

was a good man

even though he was unfaithful

and even though he was going to give

your diamond earrings to someone else

and I didn't know about that

truly

killed him wouldn't I have taken them

with me instead of leaving them with him

who was your husband having an affair

with I don't know

I asked him

huh

I don't know who it was

he told me he was going to end the

affair

and have nothing more to do with that

woman

I believed him

I loved him

am I under arrest

not at this time

[Music]

if Mrs Serranos to be believed the

mistress was about to be let go of the

night of the murder so he tried to rid

himself over she took exception in a

strangle perhaps well she didn't take

the earrings

it's possible she didn't know about them

or simply took the money and ran back to

the love nest

possibly cleavage the accountant paid

the bills he'll know where it is

[Music]

may we be of assistance

who are you detective William Murdock

inspector Brackenridge Toronto

constabulary

I am Gregory kriegoff

have you had any luck finding my dear

friends killer not as of yet but rest

assured that we will now what appears to

be the problem everything

I can understand this that the dressing

room is not so good Barbara I can

understand that there's no Taylor in

Toronto who can order a suit jacket but

but I cannot understand Barbara is it

I I don't know how it happened the piano

was in the storage room until this

morning well it happened it did and now

you must fix it may I take a look

what do you know about pianists

at all well I don't

[Music]

know the fire it's gone

now we know where the garage came from

[Music]

serious affair

more for him than me

we only stepped out a couple of times

but he became obsessed with me at first

it was rather flattering but then most

disconcerting so I broke it off

are you worried now well of course not

well Julia some men don't know how to

take no for an answer

that's a long time ago years only

intensify those desires

[Music]

thank you

[Music]

be with me Julia and your life will be

filled with music and flowers

only name I have for that apartment is

Mr Serrano

there was a woman who lived there or at

least frequented the building

I don't know what you're implying

did you see a lady going and out of the

building oh no

and it's been quiet as the grave the

last few days oh what a blessed relief

well there was noise coming out of there

I was there

was there the same tune over and over

again

violin

sometimes I could hear a woman curse

when she played the wrong note

so you never saw the woman

for you heard a plane late at night

at here

[Music]

if you say so

now if you don't mind

[Music]

Miss simad maybe have a word of course

what do I order pleasure

this is not a pleasant visit I'm afraid

so Mom what was the nature of your

relationship with Victor Serrano

suppose if you are asking and you are

well aware of it

Victor loved me and I loved him

but not enough to leave his wife for you

men are cowards he was breaking it off

with you wasn't he

[Music]

Mr mod did Victor Serrano pay you money

the night that he was killed I am not a

harlot sir and you will not speak to me

as if I was one

my interest is simply in finding out who

killed Mr Serrano

something I had nothing to do with

you smoke Mr Martin on occasion why

may I see your cigarettes

Egyptian cigarettes interesting

very expensive

gave me the whole package The Pianist

hand rolled specially for him and Cairo

would you care for one

for the purposes of evidence thank you

my belief that smoking reduces your lung

capacity can't possibly be good for you

many things that aren't good for you

bring you pleasure sir

ain't that the truth

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

[Applause]

Mr kriegoff

detective Murdock Toronto constabulary

[Applause]

[Music]

[Music]

ah detective Modoc please accept my

apologies

if you always carry a gun when you bathe

on a kitchen a little on edge lately

Mr kriegoff

I know you lied

you didn't just arrive in Toronto today

did you I may not have

but this is hardly a crime is it

[Music]

these are your brand

indeed we found this packet in Mr

Serrano's office the night that he was

killed oh but they are not unique to me

Miss Ahmad says that they are

ah yes she said delightful creature is

she not

[Music]

perhaps not

kill Victor

Mr kriegoff what were you doing with Mr

Serrano before he died

if you prefer I can take you down to the

Station House and throw you in ourselves

you wouldn't

person would ruin my reputation

turn around

so you can raise your weapon at me again

so I can get out of the tub

I will explain everything please

before he died

I invited him from New York desperate

you see ah

some very bad men have told me is that

if I did not give them money today

we're going to cut off my fingers

who were these men ah I would rather not

say but they wanted a thousand dollars

why

I might have audited to something but

Victor he's an old friend and he said

that he would give me some money so

how do I know you weren't extorting him

I would never I love Victor Victor saved

my life

he wanted to just give me the money but

I promised him I would pay him back

every penny and I still feel just

to his video

did Mr Serrano say anything to you about

his life

was anyone threatening him

not him

but

something was threatening his

apparently a former acquaintances

getting a little pushy

she told him someone was threatening her

life I suppose so

but then Victor did also says that she

was one of those people who was just

prone to these Flights of Fancy so

Victor

he just did not know what to believe

[Music]

sir

who do you think did it

could be any one of them George

we have four viable suspects no murder

weapon

what we know it was piano wire is that

right sir there was

didn't Mr Joseph tell us he was sleeping

in the storage room where they kept

pianos

they certainly did

Henry

sir

see what you can find out about a

Herbert block he's a member of the

orchestra of course

Herbert blocks from I don't see him on

your board there he isn't it's an

unrelated matter George

foreign

[Music]

hello

[Music]

oh Herbert what are you doing here

I'm here for you

did you just walk into my house

when we were recording you didn't mind

surprises that was a very long time ago

this is for you

my lady

oh goodness sake Herbert get up

I'm married Herbert and very happily

been away with me

leave at once or I'll see to it that my

husband puts you behind bars

get out

[Music]

out

[Music]

sir you've attended Symphony

performances in passive not I have

what instrument does the conductor play

none at all George

well then what exactly does he do

because he leads the orchestra how

exactly does he do that

this must be the storage room

so this is where Mr Joseph was sleeping

a letter from him to miss Ahmad

why won't you answer me my love you are

killing me

it's odd he didn't send it he sounds

quite lovesick

sir can I ask another question if you

don't mind yes of course George do you

think it's time I start thinking about

having children

oh I don't think I'm the person I just

don't want to do it too advanced in a I

hardly think that you're that you yeah

you know I wonder how you manage

sometimes

well just as we're you and Doc grogged

in her oh my what do we have here

oh

if I'm not mistaken that is the murder

weapon

what are you doing here Mr Joseph we'd

like to have a word stop

[Music]

stop

[Music]

[Music]

doctor

[Music]

him good I need to talk to you

Mr Block does know you're married I did

make that clear yes I'll have a word

with him thank you his visit was a

troubling intrusion usually I wouldn't

worry but Susanna of course thank you

but if you're Mr Carla you are a

pleasure to watch perform but you are

undisciplined

please Shape Up

Mr Serrano if I might have a word

I heard that Mr Joseph ran off did you

catch him no Mr Joseph hasn't returned

to his former lodgings and constables

haven't seen him anywhere

I don't know why he would run

there must be some misunderstanding you

stated earlier that Mr Joseph and your

husband were quite close is it possible

there was some animosity

never Donald and Victor were friends

Infinity

they lived for the music

now if you'll excuse me of course

the excuse me for a word

of course

that chap is the conductor isn't it

indeed do not disturb him he's very busy

no of course I'm just curious as to

what does a conductor do

excuse me well all you musicians read

music do you not

of course and you all rehearse and

practice together regularly so the

musicians all know their permits I

should hope so presumably you could all

play those parts together even if he

were say not there

is there a point to your inquiries I'm

just curious as to what does a conductor

do here's the Maestro he's the Lord and

Master of the music George

sir

ah I'm sure the role of conductor is

very necessary necessary in ways I can't

find them

sorry for hat

I need you to go to miss ahmad's rooms

now if Mr Joseph is in love with her as

the note suggests then that's likely the

next place he'll go sir

[Music]

sure you don't want some yeah thank you

no

please set

[Music]

do you really think Mr Rosa will come

here

wait The Hunt of the detectives we have

reasonably that Mr Joseph was in love

with him

it wouldn't surprise me

I know it sounds scandalous but Mr

sirano was going to leave his wife for

me

yes and that is likely why Mr Joseph

killed him

do you know that

I don't know it but it does stand

tourism doesn't it

loves labor is never easy what do you

mean oh this Symphony

I have no stage manager angry soloist

and now my principal second violinist is

quit Herbert block why oh he said his

heart was broken

where is he now

I have no idea

so you think this was the murder weapon

I believe so yes and you say you found

it among Mr George's possessions yes

why didn't he get rid of it

perhaps he didn't have time

that fact is troubling me as well

sir look at this

it's a letter from Mr mod begging Mr

Serrano to let her play violin in the

orchestra she's definitely persistent

she even told me that no there's

something

foreign

look at this sir we found this letter in

the storage room supposedly written by

Mr Joseph they're written in the same

hand

she wrote them both but why

to make Mr Joseph appear guilty of

murder

we're dealing with a very devious woman

my dog

one who George is currently with

it was going to be perfect

was going to help me truly begin my

career as a soloist

my life was going to be a wonderful

Adventure

but now

it is in Ruins

Donald get out he told me you loved me I

don't want to see you first of all

arrest him Miss Joseph you're coming to

the Station House with me you're under

arrest for murder myrrh I did no such

thing you had motive we found your love

letter to miss Ahmad she was having an

affair with Serrano did you kill him so

you could have it to yourself I didn't

Anya how could you

audio

you betrayed me

source

better late than never

[Music]

I want to go home

I'm afraid that is not in your future

we found your finger marks on the weapon

that killed Mr Serrano I don't know how

they just stop lying Mr Serrano wasn't

going to leave his wife for you was he

and he also wasn't going to let you play

in the orchestra either

so in a fit of rage

you killed him you found the weapon Mr

Joseph's office because you put it there

along with a desperate Love Letter to

make him appear as though he would be

willing to kill for love I stopped him

from killing me

I Am A Gifted violinist and a woman

worth killing for

can't you see that

why won't you believe me

I'm a star

[Music]

my husband may have had a Wandering eye

but he did not deserve his fate thank

you for catching his killer you're most

welcome my condolences Mrs Serena

Victor would have been so pleased with

this evening

oh well

The show must go on and I'm sure it will

go without a hitch

oh I wish I had your confidence sir

well at least you got a violinist bike I

saw that Herbert fell about half an hour

ago

is that so hi sir yes the other sir

what is it Henry well

I found out some news about Mr Block he

could be a dangerous fellow sir oh so he

was suspected of killing a man who had

stolen his previous lady friend but

nothing could ever be proven

[Music]

gracious is there a fire there's

a Garcia

I'll be along in just a moment

[Music]

we saw you

say what why do they get the better

seats

these things are fine

you're the inspector we should get the

better seats Margaret will still be able

to hear the music

hardly be able to see the handsome

conductor

Bella gets a bottle in my dressing room

hot enough to soak my arms I'm sure

you'll be wonderful

pardon me I'm looking for Herbert block

I saw him in the wings earlier but he's

not on stage I don't know where he is

and the Maestro is furious I see

I do love Tchaikovsky

do you know he was a child prodigy on

the piano I assume most of these closer

types were

perhaps if we have a child they'll take

out the piano

I don't know lessons would be awfully

expensive

I'm just joking only the best for George

Jr

[Applause]
